00:00:00Oh, dear. Hey!
00:00:10I hope you can get your head out of these architecture books, Hallie, and finally go out with me.
00:00:16Never in a million years, Dirk Diggle.
00:00:19I want your book back. Why don't you come and get it?
00:00:23Come on. Hey!
00:00:25Listen, don't fight this, okay? We will be together eventually.
00:00:28Get off me!
00:00:30Hey! Don't fight me, okay?
00:00:37Ow! You bitch!
00:00:42She said she's not interested, bro!
00:00:45Rick Brody. Oh, you always gotta play the hero, huh?
00:00:48Yeah, go ahead. You're one demerit away from getting thrown out of this school.
00:00:52You want your book back so bad?
00:00:54Alright.
00:00:55You take it.
00:00:57No!
00:01:07No!
00:01:08No! This is gonna cost a fortune to replace!
00:01:12You can have mine.
00:01:14No, I couldn't.
00:01:16Yeah, you could. I've seen you in class. You are... brilliant.
00:01:20I'm gonna get way more use out of this than I ever would.
00:01:33Do you wanna... grab lunch? Or... keep studying?
00:01:39Yeah.
00:01:40Yeah.
00:01:41Yeah.
00:01:42Grab lunch.
00:01:43We're doing great.
00:01:44So...
00:01:45Well, I...
00:01:50When did you two get back from the honeymoon?
00:01:52Just an hour ago.
00:01:53Yes!
00:01:54This was waiting for me when I got back.
00:01:56I got you, Daddy!
00:01:58The Young Architects program in Paris.
00:02:00It's a dream come true!
00:02:02And...
00:02:04When we get back,
00:02:06we're gonna rebuild this town.
00:02:08Together.
00:02:10Allie,
00:02:12give me some ice.
00:02:14Sure, Daddy.
00:02:18Are you two insane?
00:02:20Rebuild this town?
00:02:22This town is dying, and I want my daughter
00:02:24as far away from it as possible.
00:02:26Uh, but, sir,
00:02:28we have a plan.
00:02:30We even applied to adopt a child.
00:02:32Even more reason to end this now
00:02:34before you keep her trapped here forever.
00:02:36I promised Allie's mother
00:02:38before she passed away
00:02:40that I would take care of our daughter.
00:02:42She deserves more than this two-bed town,
00:02:44and quite frankly, she deserves
00:02:46more than you.
00:02:48But, sir, I love her more than anything.
00:02:50I promise.
00:02:52I will always take care of her.
00:02:54And you think that's important?
00:02:56She's going to be a world-class architect.
00:03:00You, you're...
00:03:02You're a local boy with a hammer.
00:03:04If you truly loved her,
00:03:06you'd let her go.
00:03:08Let her make something of herself!
00:03:10Deep down, you know I'm right.
00:03:12Here.
00:03:14This should be enough.
00:03:18I want her on that plane alone.
00:03:26I want her on that plane alone.
00:03:32For Mr. and Mrs. Craig Brody.
00:03:34We just got married.
00:03:36I got into an architecture program in Paris,
00:03:38and my new husband is coming with me.
00:03:40Actually, I'm not coming with you, Allie.
00:03:44What? Why?
00:03:46You think I want to just sit around
00:03:48while you study crumbling buildings?
00:03:50You're never going to be a real architect.
00:03:52The world is going to chew you up,
00:03:54and spit you out,
00:03:56and it's going to be too pathetic
00:03:58for me to watch.
00:04:02Um, what, what?
00:04:04No, what about our plans?
00:04:08We were trying to start a family, Dan.
00:04:10No, the last person I'd want to start a family with
00:04:12is you, Allie.
00:04:14I want a divorce.
00:04:16No, no, but where is this coming from?
00:04:20Hi, Craig Baby.
00:04:22Are you seeing Trista now?
00:04:24Yeah.
00:04:26Just send me the divorce papers, okay?
00:04:28Craig, no!
00:04:30What?
00:04:32I thought you believed in me!
00:04:36Ma'am, boarding is closing.
00:04:38Are you coming or not?
00:04:42Ma'am, boarding is closing.
00:04:44Are you coming or not?
00:04:46Yes.
00:04:48But I'd like to change my ticket to one way.
00:04:52Ms. Filtner!
00:04:54Ms. Filtner!
00:04:56You were just recognized as Time Magazine's top CEO to watch,
00:04:58and your company is taking the New York architecture scene by storm.
00:05:02What's next for you?
00:05:04Um, I don't know.
00:05:06Taking over the world?
00:05:08Well, you and your boyfriend, billionaire politician Ned Vogel,
00:05:10are quite the power couple.
00:05:12He must be so proud.
00:05:14I'm not doing any of this for a man's approval.
00:05:16Well, word on the street is he's planning on proposing.
00:05:18You must be the luckiest girl in the world.
00:05:20The luckiest girl in the world?
00:05:22Right.
00:05:23Ms. Filtner!
00:05:24Ms. Filtner!
00:05:25Ali Filtner, I-
00:05:27Oh, my God.
00:05:37Ali Filtner, you are the most impressive woman I've ever met.
00:05:44Allie Bildner, you are the most impressive woman I've ever met.
00:05:53You are my soulmate.
00:05:56Will you marry me?
00:06:10Will you marry me?
00:06:12Allie Bildner, I love you more than anything.
00:06:15You are my soulmate and the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:06:19Will you make me the luckiest man in the world and marry me?
00:06:22Allie?
00:06:23Allie?
00:06:24You're really leaving me to sweat here.
00:06:28And this suit is way too expensive for that.
00:06:31The most eligible bachelor in the country is proposing to me.
00:06:34So why am I thinking about Craig?
00:06:37He was a jerk and a liar and I need to move on with my life.
00:06:42Of course I'll marry you.
00:06:45This ring must have cost a fortune.
00:06:56You're so lucky.
00:06:58When's the wedding?
00:07:00Ned wants to get married as soon as possible.
00:07:02Oh, you know, Hallie would love a hot tea.
00:07:06We have a problem.
00:07:09And that is?
00:07:10You're already married to a Craig Brody?
00:07:14He never signed the divorce papers?
00:07:24So you're still married?
00:07:25He was my high school sweetheart.
00:07:28We got married, but it didn't work out.
00:07:33I thought he had signed the divorce papers.
00:07:35You thought?
00:07:36Yes.
00:07:37Hallie, the election is in six weeks.
00:07:39This could ruin my campaign.
00:07:41Just imagine the headlines.
00:07:42Senator's fiancee, already a wife?
00:07:44I will get him to sign the papers.
00:07:47You better, or there won't be a future for us, Hallie.
00:07:51I gotta take this, it's my campaign manager.
00:07:55But this is important.
00:07:56Yeah, so is this.
00:07:59Clarence, what's going on, buddy?
00:08:03Talk to me.
00:08:04Motherfucker.
00:08:09I never thought I'd hear from you again, Hallie.
00:08:30Thanks for meeting me here, Trista.
00:08:36So, you really ended it with her.
00:08:39What does it look like?
00:08:42Yeah, she's really gone.
00:08:46Good.
00:08:47So, there's this romantic movie playing at Cinema 6.
00:08:50I thought me and you can go and watch, and we can cuddle.
00:08:54We're not going anywhere together, Trista.
00:08:57My heart still belongs to Hallie, and it always will.
00:09:02I don't understand.
00:09:03Sometimes, when you truly love someone, you have to let them go.
00:09:11No matter how much it hurts.
00:09:15Thank you for your help.
00:09:23I hate you, Hallie Brody!
00:09:31Your call has been forwarded to an automatic-
00:09:35Fine.
00:09:37You want me to come after you, Craig Brody?
00:09:41I will.
00:09:52Leave the bag.
00:09:53I'll be five minutes.
00:09:55It's been seven years, Craig Brody, and you broke my heart.
00:10:16Somehow, the peace is still beat for you.
00:10:24Hallie!
00:10:26What are you doing here, Hallie?
00:10:29Well, someone never signed the divorce papers, so we're still married.
00:10:34Sign the papers, Craig.
00:10:37I can't sign them.
00:10:39You can't?
00:10:40It's complicated.
00:10:42Then let me make it simple.
00:10:44I'm supposed to get married to, God, the man of my dreams, in six weeks.
00:10:48Only, the funny thing is, my ex-husband never signed the divorce papers.
00:10:52You're engaged.
00:10:54Yes, Craig!
00:10:56Or did you think I would never move on from you?
00:10:58Sign the papers!
00:10:59I can't sign them.
00:11:01Why not?
00:11:02There's something I have to tell you.
00:11:04Mommy!
00:11:05Oh, oh, ah.
00:11:08I can't sign them.
00:11:14Why not?
00:11:15Because we have a daughter together, and I never told you.
00:11:20You're finally approved.
00:11:26After all this time.
00:11:29You even remember?
00:11:36We're fine.
00:11:38You have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:11:43Mommy!
00:11:44I'm sorry, but I'm not your mommy.
00:11:48Yes, you are.
00:11:49You are my mommy.
00:11:51Tell her, Daddy.
00:11:52Uh...
00:11:53Craig?
00:11:54What is she talking about?
00:11:55Natalie, why don't you go grab the nest?
00:11:57I said we'd go catch bullfrogs, remember?
00:11:59Okay.
00:12:00Is mommy coming with us?
00:12:01No, mommy and daddy need to have a chat.
00:12:03All right?
00:12:04Okay, Daddy.
00:12:08You want to tell me what the hell is going on?
00:12:11Well...
00:12:12Allie didn't come here to get back together.
00:12:19She came here to divorce me, and I have to let her move on.
00:12:27I tracked you down in the library in New York, and you were there with another guy.
00:12:35You looked happy.
00:12:37You looked free.
00:12:38Well?
00:12:39Um...
00:12:40You...
00:12:41You know kids.
00:12:42Active imagination.
00:12:43She thinks every woman who comes on the farm is her mom.
00:12:45All right, listen, just leave the papers on the counter and I'll sign them.
00:12:49I have a flight back to New York in three hours, and I am not leaving here without these papers signed.
00:12:50Well, I'm not signing them until I read them over first.
00:12:51Why, Craig?
00:12:52It's not like you have anything that I want.
00:12:53What do you have that I could possibly want?
00:12:54I'm ready, Daddy.
00:12:55K', um...
00:12:56I promise I'll sign them, okay?
00:12:57Well, I promise I'll sign them.
00:12:59I'm ready.
00:13:00Yeah, Jack.
00:13:01You're ready to sign the phone.
00:13:02I'm ready to sign the phone.
00:13:03Okay?
00:13:04I'm ready, Daddy.
00:13:05Okay.
00:13:06Um...
00:13:07Okay.
00:13:08Um...
00:13:09I promise I'll sign them.
00:13:11Okay?
00:13:12All right.
00:13:13All right?
00:13:14All right.
00:13:15Listen.
00:13:16Yes, it'll come out.
00:13:17All right.
00:13:18All right.
00:13:19I'm ready, Daddy.
00:13:20Now, um...
00:13:21No, no, no...
00:13:23all of a sudden. Okay? I know better than to trust your promises, Craig. I got one for you too, mommy.
00:13:29Oh yeah, so Miss Allie is going back to New York, so it's just gonna be you and me and get up,
00:13:34like always. Okay. I'm sorry, just leave them in the living room all of a sudden. Let's go.
00:13:53Go, go, go, wait!
00:14:23Come on, no cell service still. Guess I'm walking. Mommy, help! Daddy's hurt.
00:14:38What happened? Daddy got bit by a big snake.
00:14:41Yeah. God. God, Brad?
00:14:50Daddy.
00:14:53You still remember how to dry out the snake venom? Well, I haven't forgotten everything you taught me, Craig Brody.
00:15:03Here, keep the pressure on. Okay.
00:15:08Your daddy will be fine. I promise.
00:15:18Hold still.
00:15:20All right.
00:15:23Keep the pressure on.
00:15:31So, your daughter.
00:15:33Mm-hmm.
00:15:34She looks about...
00:15:36Seven years old.
00:15:39So, she's Trista's.
00:15:41No.
00:15:42She's yours.
00:15:45She's yours.
00:15:46So, if she's not Trista's, how many other women were you sleeping with while we were together?
00:15:53I don't care if you were with the entire town. Just, um, sign the papers, Craig, and we can put this sham of marriage behind us.
00:16:00You've gotta be kidding me. Where did they go?
00:16:04Daddy's had this photo in his nightstand for seven years, which means he still loves her.
00:16:09And if they loved each other once, they can love each other again. They just need another chance.
00:16:15Where are the divorce papers?
00:16:28No.
00:16:29Oh.
00:16:29I will check into the Picoi Inn for tonight.
00:16:41Oh.
00:16:41And we can look for the divorce papers tomorrow.
00:16:43The Picoi closed years ago. There was always your father's.
00:16:48That's, um, not an option.
00:16:51The way she said that, that something happened between her and her father.
00:16:56Well, unless you want to stay outside, I guess you're stuck here.
00:17:01Fine. But I'm not staying in your room.
00:17:12Wouldn't dream of it.
00:17:15You can stay in my room with me and Lucy.
00:17:18There you go.
00:17:28Wow, I love your room.
00:17:30Thanks. My dad helped me decorate it.
00:17:41Okay, look.
00:17:46Oh my God.
00:17:46I know it hasn't been easy.
00:17:49Trying to start a family, but, uh, one day, the adoption will go through.
00:17:54We're gonna have that baby, and you will be the most amazing.
00:18:00Good night, sweetheart.
00:18:14Good night, sweetheart.
00:18:28I guess I'm just remembering things wrong.
00:18:40I guess I'm just remembering things wrong.
00:18:42I guess I'm just remembering things wrong.
00:18:46I guess I'm just remembering things wrong.
00:18:53I guess I'm just remembering things wrong.
00:19:11I don't know.
00:19:41It's nothing I haven't seen before.
00:19:44Daddy?
00:19:46Oh, God.
00:19:48Do you know where McHaley went?
00:19:52Uh, no.
00:19:54I haven't seen her.
00:19:55Do you think she left us, Daddy?
00:19:58You know what?
00:19:59Just give me five minutes and I'll help you look, okay, sweetie?
00:20:02Okay, Daddy.
00:20:07Ow!
00:20:08Oh, you're gone.
00:20:11Okay, I'm engaged to someone else.
00:20:16You're also married to me.
00:20:21How could this kid any mess here?
00:20:26Greg, I'm engaged to someone else.
00:20:30You're also married to me.
00:20:35How could this give any mess here?
00:20:43I should go.
00:20:56Hey.
00:21:01Hey.
00:21:03So I found the divorce papers.
00:21:07Natalie!
00:21:09I think she wants to keep us married.
00:21:12Would that be such a bad thing?
00:21:18Hello! I brought scones!
00:21:23What the hell are you doing here?
00:21:27Craig and Trista are still together?
00:21:31I mean, hi baby.
00:21:33I hope I'm not interrupting anything.
00:21:36What a pleasant surprise, Holly.
00:21:39Uh, excuse me.
00:21:43What the fuck are you doing here?
00:21:46It's none of your business.
00:21:49Actually, where Craig's concerned, it is.
00:21:52So, you and Craig are still together?
00:21:57We're not going anywhere together, Trista.
00:22:01My heart still belongs to Hallie.
00:22:03And it always will.
00:22:05Still together?
00:22:07Why, of course we're still together.
00:22:09We've been inseparable.
00:22:11Ever since that day at the airport.
00:22:13The day that Craig chose me over you.
00:22:15Don't tell me you've forgotten.
00:22:16Don't tell me you've forgotten.
00:22:20How could I?
00:22:22It was the worst day of my life.
00:22:24It's not hard to hear that.
00:22:26Because it was a pretty good day for me.
00:22:28I'm sure it was.
00:22:30Listen, if you're here to win Craig back, it's too late.
00:22:33Because I'm pretty sure he's planning on proposing to me.
00:22:36Any day now.
00:22:38So I need you to get your skinny little ass out of my town.
00:22:41Okay?
00:22:42Here.
00:22:43Take a pastry for the bread.
00:22:45I insist.
00:22:50Eat it.
00:22:51Oh my god.
00:22:52Because it's the closest you'll get to tasting Craig's mouth ever again.
00:22:55Again.
00:22:59Oh my god!
00:23:02You New York bitch!
00:23:04Oh my god!
00:23:11You think you can just waltz back in here and pick up where you left off?
00:23:15Craig will always choose me over you.
00:23:21What the hell is going on?
00:23:22Help!
00:23:23Help!
00:23:24My ankle!
00:23:25My ankle!
00:23:27That crazy bitch!
00:23:30Like I said, he will always choose me over you.
00:23:34Are you okay?
00:23:36Why are you asking her?
00:23:37I'm the one who's injured.
00:23:42All I did was offer her a scone and then she called it dog food and then she kicked me.
00:23:46Poor little thing you got, you got scone all over you.
00:23:50It's okay Hallie, I forgive you. Even if you did break my leg.
00:23:53I didn't touch you.
00:23:55I need to put your petty jealousy aside.
00:23:57Craig divorced you for a reason.
00:23:59Are you coming back here? To diaper him back is just...
00:24:03Poetic.
00:24:04Actually, I didn't divorce Hallie. She's still my wife.
00:24:13What?
00:24:15Hallie is still my wife.
00:24:18Which means you just insulted her in her own house. So please leave Trista.
00:24:22Wait baby, this is just one big misunderstanding.
00:24:27You heard my daddy get out of our house before we call the cops.
00:24:33Oh my god, ew. What is that disgusting creature?
00:24:36I'm gonna vomit.
00:24:38Good job Lucy.
00:24:40You know what, I should go.
00:24:42Hallie.
00:24:47It was nice meeting you, Hallie.
00:24:50I'm sorry.
00:24:52I'm sorry.
00:24:57Luloo. Call me back.
00:25:02Hallie.
00:25:04You know, I never understood why you left me for Trista.
00:25:06Of all people, you knew I couldn't stand her.
00:25:09That's why I didn't.
00:25:11Because I knew it would hurt the most.
00:25:15Seeing her again just reminded me of the...
00:25:18Worst day of my life.
00:25:20Hallie.
00:25:21There's something I need to tell you about Trista.
00:25:26I don't want to talk about Trista anymore, okay? I have to take this.
00:25:29Hulu, can you email me another copy of the divorce papers ASAP?
00:25:33Another copy? What happened to the originals?
00:25:35Uh, it's a long story.
00:25:40Can you do it?
00:25:41It's Saturday. I...
00:25:43City Hall's closed until Monday. You're gonna need a certified copy.
00:25:47I think you're gonna have to stay the weekend there, boss.
00:25:49I hope that's not a big problem.
00:25:52No, uh, of course not.
00:25:55Well, looks like I am staying until Monday.
00:25:58I feel like we have a new copy of the divorce papers.
00:26:00I don't have anything.
00:26:02Not a change of clothes, not even a toothbrush.
00:26:03You can just drive into the store.
00:26:06Okay.
00:26:07Okay.
00:26:08Okay.
00:26:09Hey, Miss Hallie is staying.
00:26:10Stop looking at him like that, Hallie. You can't have feelings for him. Even if he is... your husband.
00:26:40I can't believe how... bad the town looks.
00:26:47When the factory closed, half the stores went with it.
00:26:52Well, at least Martha's diner is still here.
00:26:54Martha May makes the best burgers in the world.
00:26:58Yeah.
00:27:00Remember our crazy dream?
00:27:02You know, fix this place up?
00:27:03Of course I do.
00:27:05So?
00:27:07You probably have big plans after graduation.
00:27:11I'm applying to an architecture program in Paris.
00:27:14I doubt I'll get it, though. It's really competitive.
00:27:17Of course you will. I mean, they'd be fools not to take you.
00:27:21You think so?
00:27:22Oh, yeah, I know so.
00:27:25Well, after that, I want to come back here.
00:27:27It takes this town up.
00:27:29I am pretty good at the hammer. I need an assistant.
00:27:32How about a partner?
00:27:38Sounds perfect.
00:27:40Man, I could really go for a burger right now.
00:27:44I have an idea.
00:27:47Where are you taking me, Craig Brody?
00:27:52A picnic.
00:27:54Just like old times.
00:27:56Allow me.
00:27:57I hate you, Hallie!
00:27:58Wow, it's just like in high school.
00:28:14Still looks the same, doesn't it?
00:28:16And feels the same.
00:28:19I love you, Hallie Bildner.
00:28:22I want you to know, I will never, ever hurt you.
00:28:27I'm so sorry for hurting you, Hallie.
00:28:29Natalie and I were supposed to eat these on our fishing trip.
00:28:36You.
00:28:37I think she'll forgive me.
00:28:38Triangles.
00:28:39Just what you tell me.
00:28:41It's Natalie's favorite way to eat them, too.
00:28:43Oh, I have to take this.
00:28:44Hey.
00:28:45Hallie.
00:28:46The press wants to know why we haven't been seen together.
00:28:47They think we broke up.
00:28:48You need to get back here right now.
00:28:50I-I can't yet.
00:29:03I need to get new divorce papers and city halls closed until Monday.
00:29:07New divorce papers!
00:29:08What?
00:29:09Your location says you're at your old high school.
00:29:12What the hell is going on?
00:29:13It's... complicated.
00:29:15complicated. No, it is not complicated. Okay, look, I am pulling in a favor from the governor.
00:29:23We're going to get those papers expedited, and we are going to force that husband of yours into
00:29:27signing them if we have to. I need you on the next flight back in an hour. In a hour? Yeah,
00:29:33that's not going to be a problem, is it? Of course not. I have to go.
00:29:45Uh, so you wouldn't mind taking me to the airport, would you? Of course not.
00:29:59Just sign the papers when you get them, Craig. Okay? It's the least you can do.
00:30:05This is my last chance to tell her the truth.
00:30:09Well, goodbye, I guess.
00:30:13No, Craig. Oh, I'm done waiting. It's time for me to move on.
00:30:24Hello? What? Are you sure? Okay, okay. Um, um, it's my father. He's had a stroke. He's at the
00:30:35community hospital. Oh, come on. I'll drive you. Unless you're getting on that flight. No, uh, no, of course not. Okay, good, good, good. Come on.
00:30:47What's going on? The neighbor found him this morning on the lawn. Hallie, I didn't expect to see you here.
00:30:57Is he going to be okay? We're doing the best we can, but it's difficult considering his condition.
00:31:02His condition? Your father is dying, Hallie, of kidney failure.
00:31:06How long does he have? A couple weeks, maybe a month. I hope we're planning on sticking around this time.
00:31:18Excuse me.
00:31:24I had no idea. You didn't? When's the last time you saw him?
00:31:28Seven years ago.
00:31:39Hallie.
00:31:40Craig's divorcing me. He's been cheating on me.
00:31:44I knew that bastard wasn't good enough for you.
00:31:47But at least you found out before he followed you to Paris.
00:31:50No, I'm not going to Paris. I can't get on that plane.
00:31:54What?
00:31:55What? Craig was right. I'm not... I'm not a real architect. Everyone's going to laugh at me.
00:32:01You get on that plane, Hallie.
00:32:03But, Daddy, I...
00:32:05If you come back now, you'll be a laughingstock. You'll be a divorced loser. No one will want you. Not Craig. Not even me.
00:32:16Daddy?
00:32:17You get on that plane, Hallie.
00:32:20I never want to see you again. You are a disgrace.
00:32:23Yes.
00:32:33Nobody's ever been so mean to me.
00:32:38Except you, that is.
00:32:40God, it's like the two of you were in cahoots.
00:32:42Should I tell her that we were?
00:32:47If I tell her the truth, she'll never forgive her dying father.
00:32:52Didn't work out for the best, though?
00:32:54I mean, look at the life you've built for yourself.
00:32:57You deserve more than this small town.
00:33:01You and my father certainly made it easy to leave.
00:33:03What's going on?
00:33:07Power grid has been happening for weeks.
00:33:14Natalie?
00:33:15Daddy.
00:33:17I'm scared.
00:33:19It's dark and there's someone outside.
00:33:21I'll be right there.
00:33:22Keep the doors locked.
00:33:24I have to go.
00:33:25No, I'm coming with you.
00:33:26Hallie, this isn't something that...
00:33:27I'm coming with you.
00:33:28Okay, okay, come on.
00:33:32Natalie?
00:33:34Oh my god.
00:33:35Oh my god.
00:33:36Oh my god.
00:33:37Thank god.
00:33:39Oh.
00:33:40I was so scared.
00:33:42It's okay.
00:33:43It's okay.
00:33:44You're okay.
00:33:45It must have been raccoons.
00:33:48Broken through the window.
00:33:50Probably those scones, huh?
00:33:51Yeah.
00:33:52Yeah.
00:33:52I'm so sorry for leaving you alone for so long.
00:33:56Oh, it's um, it's my fault.
00:33:57No, no, no, no.
00:33:58I was happy to help, but um...
00:34:00I think you missed your flight.
00:34:03So you're saying we can watch a movie together?
00:34:09I, um...
00:34:10Yes, we can.
00:34:14Miss Haley, come closer.
00:34:21Daddy, come closer.
00:34:22Isn't this great?
00:34:27Just the three of us.
00:34:31This prank always makes my daddy fall asleep.
00:34:34Oh my god.
00:34:38Oh my god.
00:35:03I love you, Haley Brody.
00:35:12I love you, Haley Brody.
00:35:14Why does this feel so...
00:35:17right?
00:35:19He's still my husband.
00:35:21And I know every freckle on his body.
00:35:23But no, I'm divorcing him and marrying someone else.
00:35:33Oh my god.
00:35:36Oh my god.
00:35:41Haley.
00:35:42Mommy and daddy, I made breakfast.
00:35:55Do you like it?
00:35:56I made pancakes.
00:35:57They are excellent, sweetie.
00:36:01Mm-hmm.
00:36:02This is what families do.
00:36:04They eat breakfast together.
00:36:05There's some stupid birthday invitation.
00:36:19All the kids from school will be there, but I'm not going.
00:36:21Because everyone always says, if I had a mom, she'd help me pick up better gifts.
00:36:29And they say I'm just a momless loser.
00:36:31You are not a momless loser, Natalie.
00:36:35And don't let anyone make you feel less than you are.
00:36:41I grew up without a mom, too, you know.
00:36:44And it was hard.
00:36:46But I was always able to rely on my dad.
00:36:50Just like you can.
00:36:54And by the way, your dad is worth a thousand money.
00:36:59That's true.
00:37:00She checked.
00:37:03So go to that party with your head held high.
00:37:06No one can take your power from you unless you let them.
00:37:13Okay, Miss Allie.
00:37:14I'll go to the party.
00:37:15Thanks.
00:37:22Oh, no.
00:37:24Excuse me.
00:37:25I have to take this.
00:37:29I see you got my messages.
00:37:35Delete that photo, Trista.
00:37:37Oh, which one?
00:37:38Because I have plenty.
00:37:42What's the problem?
00:37:44A rich fiance isn't enough for you, so you have to come back and seduce your husband, too.
00:37:48I didn't come here to get back with Craig, Trista.
00:37:51I came here to divorce him.
00:37:53Really?
00:37:53Then prove it.
00:37:55Walk away now and leave this town for good.
00:37:59Otherwise, these photos would go to the senator.
00:38:05I could ruin you, Hallie.
00:38:07So don't mess with my life, and I won't mess with yours.
00:38:11Hey.
00:38:19Everything okay?
00:38:21Hi.
00:38:22Who are you talking to?
00:38:24Oh, uh, my, uh, fiance's lawyer.
00:38:27He'll be by with new divorce papers.
00:38:30Um, I have to go.
00:38:32Right now?
00:38:33Yes.
00:38:34I'm sorry, but yes.
00:38:35Can you call me a cab?
00:38:36Hallie.
00:38:37Call me a cab.
00:38:38Craig.
00:38:39Okay.
00:38:42My plan didn't work, Lucy.
00:38:44I guess Mommy isn't in love with Daddy after all.
00:38:57Martha May?
00:38:58Hallie Builder, as I live and breathe!
00:39:01Oh!
00:39:01Oh, how are you so skinny?
00:39:03I thought that city of yours had a restaurant on every block.
00:39:06Oh, well, they do, but none of them make a burger as good as you do.
00:39:10Oh, well, that's nice to know I'll be remembered fondly, at least.
00:39:14What?
00:39:14Don't tell me you're shutting down.
00:39:16Yeah, I don't have a choice.
00:39:17Rent's gone up, and I can't afford the place anymore.
00:39:20No.
00:39:21No, there must be something I can do.
00:39:23Mayor Diggle, shut it down.
00:39:27Mayor Diggle.
00:39:28Dirk, I can't believe you're shutting down Martha's Diner.
00:39:34It's a town institution.
00:39:36Is it?
00:39:36Or are you just upset about it because you and your boyfriend, Craig, used to go there?
00:39:41This isn't high school anymore, Dirk, and this isn't a game.
00:39:45What is it going to take for you to leave the diner alone?
00:39:48Well, you know I've always liked you, so how about you and me handle this privately?
00:39:55I'll pay you 12 months' rent in advance.
00:40:02Listen, you think I want your money?
00:40:04No, I had something more interesting in mind.
00:40:07You!
00:40:07You're disgusting!
00:40:09Listen, Craig was here to save you last time, but he's not here now.
00:40:13Looks like you're all alone, Hallie.
00:40:15No!
00:40:17Let go of my wife!
00:40:25Well, you two are under arrest for assaulting the mayor!
00:40:32You know the drill.
00:40:34This is just like how I used to arrest you when you was back in high school.
00:40:37My wife, huh?
00:40:47Some habits are hard to break.
00:40:51God, this is so not funny!
00:40:53Ned is running for senator.
00:40:55What will this look like if anyone finds out?
00:40:57And who's going to check a county jail in a nowhere town?
00:41:01I should have never come back here.
00:41:02I should have sent my assistant.
00:41:04I should have hired a lawyer!
00:41:05Then why didn't you?
00:41:08I think you wanted to see me.
00:41:10In your dreams, I have moved on to bigger and better things.
00:41:14Yeah, I heard about that.
00:41:15That neighborhood you shut down put 6,000 people out of work.
00:41:19And the complex I built brought back 10,000 jobs.
00:41:23Yeah, for Ivy Leaguers and corporate types.
00:41:26What about the blue collars?
00:41:28What about the people you came from?
00:41:30I've tried to forget where I came from!
00:41:32Okay, isn't that what you wanted when you told me I don't belong here?
00:41:36I shouldn't have said that.
00:41:37No, you were right.
00:41:39I'm not the same girl you married.
00:41:42I've built a life, a career.
00:41:46I should thank you.
00:41:47Because I couldn't have done it without you.
00:41:50All right, lovebirds.
00:41:52Your bail's been posted.
00:41:54You're free to go.
00:41:56Bail? By who?
00:41:57Hey, Hal's.
00:42:02Ned!
00:42:07Hey, Hal's.
00:42:09Ned!
00:42:13So, you must be Craig Brody.
00:42:16The man who couldn't even sign a simple divorce paper.
00:42:18And you must be Ned Vogel.
00:42:21The man who thinks money can solve everything.
00:42:24Yeah, well, my money got you out of jail.
00:42:27I didn't ask to be bailed out.
00:42:29Hmm.
00:42:30Well, you can think of it as the government working for you.
00:42:33Well, you can shove your government up your silver spoon.
00:42:36Guys, please stop.
00:42:38No, you're right.
00:42:39I'm not here to argue with the man who's holding on to the past.
00:42:43We got the divorce papers expedited.
00:42:48So, you can sign them, Craig.
00:42:52This nonsense has gone on long enough.
00:42:55Can I really divorce Hallie?
00:42:58Without her knowing about her own daughter?
00:43:02Sign the papers.
00:43:04Or we take you to court.
00:43:07But I gotta tell you, my lawyer's a shark.
00:43:10Say something, Hallie.
00:43:11Say something to stop this.
00:43:16Sign the papers, Craig.
00:43:19Let me go.
00:43:20It's the least you can do.
00:43:29Wonderful.
00:43:30We will get these filed at the town hall.
00:43:33And you will be divorced in an hour.
00:43:37This nonsense has gone on long enough.
00:43:39It's time for you to finally move on with your life, Hallie.
00:43:46Well, are you coming?
00:43:49Yes, of course.
00:43:52Bye.
00:43:53That is who she ended up with.
00:44:02I always thought it'd be you.
00:44:05You know, sometimes things don't work out the way we want them to.
00:44:11Hallie, what were you thinking?
00:44:13Jail?
00:44:13Are you trying to ruin my campaign?
00:44:17No, no, this has nothing to do with you.
00:44:20You are going to be my wife.
00:44:24Everything you do reflects on me.
00:44:28Now, are there any other skeletons I should know about?
00:44:32No.
00:44:42Nothing.
00:44:45This town is just how you described it.
00:44:50Low class, run down, depressing.
00:44:54It isn't that bad.
00:44:58Those are your words, Hallie.
00:45:00What's gotten into you?
00:45:01I don't know.
00:45:02Um, just...
00:45:04being back here...
00:45:07Should I remind you how lucky you are to have gotten out?
00:45:11Class signature, Miss Bilner.
00:45:13And you'll be free and clear to be the wife of Aseni.
00:45:15Okay.
00:45:27Let's go.
00:45:32Fair wages, fair pay!
00:45:34We owe you a contract today!
00:45:35Let us through.
00:45:36No one gets in or out today.
00:45:38Town workers on strike.
00:45:40We need to get these filed.
00:45:42We have a flight to catch in 30 minutes.
00:45:44Sorry, we can't do it.
00:45:49There you are, Mommy.
00:45:53Mommy?
00:45:57I knew you wanted to leave without me, Mommy.
00:46:01Mommy, you two have a kid together?
00:46:02No, no, no, of course not.
00:46:04Natalie, come on.
00:46:05Miss Hallie has to go.
00:46:07No, no!
00:46:09I'm so sorry.
00:46:10I hate you!
00:46:11I hate both of you!
00:46:14Another reason why I'm glad I don't have kids.
00:46:17Look, we need to get these signed.
00:46:19What's it going to cost me to make it happen?
00:46:22Whoa!
00:46:23Is this a city senate official
00:46:26bribing a city employee?
00:46:29You see, I have my fair share of scandals,
00:46:31but this...
00:46:32this is bad.
00:46:33Hallie, I see you got a fancy new fiancee.
00:46:40What happened to your husband?
00:46:41He's still locked away in jail?
00:46:43I think he means soon-to-be ex-husband.
00:46:46Ah, looks like your father got what he always wanted.
00:46:49You and Craig finally divorced.
00:46:52But what do you mean what my father wanted?
00:46:57What do you mean what my father wanted?
00:47:00Wait, man.
00:47:01Craig never told you-
00:47:02Fair, wait, it's fair, fair!
00:47:03Hey!
00:47:04Keep it down.
00:47:05All right, or I will write you up for a noise violation.
00:47:08How about you pay us what we're owed
00:47:09and not waste our tax dollars
00:47:12on fancy new fire trucks
00:47:14and cocktail parties?
00:47:16Mayor Sullivan never would have done anything.
00:47:18All right, listen.
00:47:18Mayor Sullivan is not in charge anymore.
00:47:21I am.
00:47:22All right, so please just keep it down.
00:47:25Fair wait is fair pay.
00:47:26All right, just keep it down.
00:47:28Fair wait is fair pay.
00:47:30I'll sign that paper for you.
00:47:32Yeah.
00:47:33All right, good.
00:47:36Where's the rest of it?
00:47:37What?
00:47:38Well, I can't sign this without a custody agreement.
00:47:41A custody agreement?
00:47:43Sure, this child is just as much Hallie
00:47:45as she is Craig's.
00:47:48You lied to her.
00:47:50No, no, no, I didn't know, I swear.
00:47:54How is this even possible?
00:47:56Well, she was adopted.
00:47:57I mean, I did the paperwork myself.
00:47:59You enlisted as parent number one.
00:48:00Jeez, I would have thought he would have told you
00:48:02about it by now.
00:48:03This is not good.
00:48:05A husband is one thing, but a child?
00:48:07If this gets out, I am sunk.
00:48:09Right.
00:48:10A messy custody battle never sits well with voters.
00:48:12Who said anything about a custody agreement?
00:48:15Hallie doesn't even want the kid, right, Hallie?
00:48:17I mean, you barely even know the child.
00:48:20She'll give out custody right now.
00:48:21Where do we sign?
00:48:21It's not that simple.
00:48:23In a case like this, when a child's involved,
00:48:25both parties have to attend a parenting class.
00:48:27The next one starts tomorrow.
00:48:29Tomorrow?
00:48:31I do not have time for this.
00:48:33I have to get back to New York
00:48:34before the press starts asking questions.
00:48:38Go.
00:48:39Go, I'll get this sorted out.
00:48:41Fine.
00:48:42Take care of this child
00:48:44and this marriage
00:48:45quickly and quietly.
00:48:54Natalie.
00:48:55No!
00:48:55You were just going to let me divorce you,
00:48:57never knowing that Natalie's my daughter?
00:48:58The adoption went through after you left.
00:49:11You didn't think I deserved to know?
00:49:13You could have called, written anything!
00:49:17I tried.
00:49:18What?
00:49:22And you were there with another guy.
00:49:23You looked happy.
00:49:26You looked free.
00:49:28Seems you don't need me and Natalie anymore.
00:49:31And that's why you never told me
00:49:33that I had a daughter?
00:49:36You looked like you'd moved on.
00:49:39Moved on?
00:49:41It took me years
00:49:42to move on.
00:49:46And honestly,
00:49:48I don't know if I ever have.
00:49:52Forget it.
00:49:53It doesn't matter now anyway.
00:49:58Here.
00:50:02Parenting class.
00:50:05We need to take it
00:50:06in order to get divorced.
00:50:08Custody.
00:50:10Co-parenting.
00:50:11Legally, Natalie
00:50:12is just as much mine
00:50:14as she is yours.
00:50:15You haven't spent any time with her.
00:50:17You didn't raise her.
00:50:19I know!
00:50:20And whose fault is that?
00:50:21Class is at 8 a.m.
00:50:24Don't be late.
00:50:29I knew Miss Haley was my mommy.
00:50:37Dad?
00:50:42Maya, what's going on?
00:50:43Daddy!
00:50:51He's okay.
00:50:54He's stabilized.
00:50:55Your old man's a fighter, Hallie.
00:50:58And clearly he's fighting to see you again.
00:51:02No fighting to see me?
00:51:04No, if anything,
00:51:06he'd be pissed to know I'm back.
00:51:07My dad hates me.
00:51:09That's not possible.
00:51:11Hallie, he talks about you all the time.
00:51:14He does?
00:51:15Yep.
00:51:16Every Monday and Thursday at dialysis.
00:51:18That's how I know about your fancy job
00:51:21and your fancy boyfriend.
00:51:24None of this makes any sense.
00:51:27Hallie, are you okay?
00:51:28Yeah.
00:51:28Yeah, today's just been
00:51:31a lot.
00:51:34Maya, did you know
00:51:35that Natalie's
00:51:37my daughter?
00:51:42My shift ends in five minutes.
00:51:44Do you want to grab a drink?
00:51:47Craig has never revealed
00:51:49who Natalie's mother was,
00:51:51but
00:51:51he's never been with anyone since you,
00:51:53so we figured...
00:51:54Wait a second.
00:51:55Uh, he's never been
00:51:57with anyone since me.
00:51:59No, he left me for Trista.
00:52:01I saw him.
00:52:02Trista.
00:52:03She's been after him for years, sure,
00:52:04but he'd never touch her
00:52:05with a ten-foot pole.
00:52:07I don't understand.
00:52:09Just send me the divorce papers, okay?
00:52:12Craig!
00:52:14Oh my God.
00:52:15Excuse me, Maya.
00:52:25I need to get to the bottom of this.
00:52:36Good to see you, Hallie.
00:52:38I know the truth.
00:52:39You were never with Trista.
00:52:42So tell me the truth
00:52:43about everything.
00:52:45Right now.
00:52:51Pay me for it.
00:52:53If you win,
00:52:55I'll tell you.
00:53:04Looks like big city living
00:53:05hasn't dulled your A-Middle.
00:53:06No, if anything,
00:53:08it made me sharper.
00:53:09You two are playing like
00:53:17your lives depend on it.
00:53:24Well...
00:53:25kinda do.
00:53:31Oops.
00:53:32If you do that again,
00:53:38I might just have to take you
00:53:39right here on the table.
00:53:41Too bad I'm engaged.
00:53:45What are you playing at, Hallie?
00:53:47I deserve the truth.
00:53:49Why?
00:53:50You came here to divorce me.
00:53:52What good would the truth do?
00:53:54I'll be the one to decide that.
00:53:55I'm excited.
00:54:09Now.
00:54:11Bess up.
00:54:18You scratched.
00:54:20I win.
00:54:25Thank you, ladies.
00:54:27But I gotta go.
00:54:29I have an early start.
00:54:36Maybe I can find some clues in my father's room.
00:54:41Why didn't my father tell me he was sick?
00:54:44And why won't anyone just tell me the truth?
00:54:50Oh, my God.
00:54:57This will always belong to Hallie.
00:55:01And so will my heart.
00:55:02What is this doing here?
00:55:10What was this doing in my father's bedroom?
00:55:12Uh, Hallie...
00:55:13Tell me, why was this in my father's room?
00:55:18Don't tell me you're about to propose.
00:55:20Oh, yes, Hallie.
00:55:21Krista?
00:55:22What are you doing here?
00:55:24Surprise!
00:55:24I'm teaching the course.
00:55:27It's time for the two of you to get divorced.
00:55:31I mean, this is what you both want, right?
00:55:35Of course.
00:55:37Hallie, you are Natalie's mother after all.
00:55:40Yes, but she doesn't know it yet, so please keep this between us.
00:55:44I will always do you a favor, Craig.
00:55:47You know that.
00:55:48Okay, first topic.
00:55:51How to explain to your child why you're not together anymore.
00:55:54Uh, simple.
00:55:56Her father is a lying, manipulative jerk who hid the fact that I had a daughter for five years.
00:56:02Not to mention whatever other secrets he's keeping.
00:56:05And what would you have done if I'd come up to you in the library that day?
00:56:08Hallie, be honest.
00:56:10You're starting a new life somewhere else.
00:56:11Because you made me believe there was nothing left for me here.
00:56:14So what are you going to do?
00:56:16You're going to take Natalie to New York?
00:56:18Maybe.
00:56:19She belongs here.
00:56:22Not in New York with central air and no pair.
00:56:26And I will be damned if I let Ned Vogel be my daughter's stepfather.
00:56:31Jealous, Craig.
00:56:33You know, of all the things Ned is, he's never lied to me.
00:56:35Never torn my world apart without so much as an explanation.
00:56:39You want an explanation?
00:56:41Yeah.
00:56:42I'll give you one.
00:56:42I did lie to you that day when I told you that I didn't love you anymore.
00:56:45I'm done here.
00:56:53Wait, he was still in love with you.
00:56:55I knew it.
00:56:55You just came here and you ruined everything like that.
00:56:57I knew you would.
00:56:58Ruined what exactly?
00:57:00I know the truth, Trista.
00:57:02You and Craig were never together.
00:57:05And that's about to change, sweetie.
00:57:08Once those divorce papers are finalized,
00:57:10I will have no choice but to choose me.
00:57:12Besides, Natalie needs a mother.
00:57:15You want to be Natalie's mom.
00:57:17Well, not particularly.
00:57:19But I can pretend.
00:57:21At least until I send her off to boarding school.
00:57:23After all these years, her father and I deserve some alone time.
00:57:27I mean, don't you think?
00:57:29Don't you dare.
00:57:34Go back to New York, Hallie.
00:57:35None of this concerns of you anymore.
00:57:38I think I'll go comfort your husband now.
00:57:43Aww.
00:57:44He looks upset.
00:57:45Let me out!
00:58:02Somebody!
00:58:03Somebody!
00:58:06I'm so sorry about that.
00:58:08I didn't realize Hallie would try to provoke you like that.
00:58:11Oh, Hallie was right.
00:58:13I should have told her about Natalie.
00:58:14It was unfair.
00:58:16I need to apologize.
00:58:17Do you?
00:58:18Because you and I both know what Hallie would have chosen all those years ago.
00:58:21And it wouldn't have been you and them.
00:58:23I don't, because I never gave her the chance.
00:58:26I did.
00:58:27What?
00:58:28All those years ago, I told her about Natalie.
00:58:35I...
00:58:36I don't understand.
00:58:39I care about you, Craig.
00:58:41And I would never, ever lie to you.
00:58:44I told her that you had a daughter together.
00:58:47And she never even tried to contact you.
00:58:49Did she?
00:58:50Did she?
00:58:50I'm so sorry I didn't tell you before, but I was just trying to protect you.
00:58:58She said that the last thing that she wanted was a daughter with you.
00:59:02She said that?
00:59:04Yes.
00:59:05In fact, she said that she didn't want any kids at all.
00:59:08Hallie was born to be a mother.
00:59:09That's all she's ever wanted.
00:59:12Is it?
00:59:14This is from the judge.
00:59:16She's planning on giving up full custody.
00:59:19She's going to New York.
00:59:20She has no interest in fighting for you or Natalie.
00:59:24But I do.
00:59:32What are you doing?
00:59:35I'm just trying to help you move on, Craig.
00:59:38Hallie will never choose you.
00:59:41But I will.
00:59:42It's not going to happen, Trista.
00:59:45It's not.
00:59:45Natalie.
00:59:46Natalie needs a mother.
00:59:47You know it, and I know it.
00:59:49You need to move on, Craig, and come back to reality.
00:59:52Help me out!
00:59:55Allie?
00:59:57What did you do to her?
00:59:59Nothing, nothing, nothing!
01:00:00This was a mistake.
01:00:02Having you help me out all those years ago is the biggest regret of my life.
01:00:06It's never going to happen, no matter what happens with me and Hallie.
01:00:10Allie?
01:00:16You want to play it like that?
01:00:19So be it.
01:00:20Hi!
01:00:21I'd like to speak to Senator Ned Vogel, please.
01:00:33Are you okay?
01:00:34Don't.
01:00:36Why do you care, Craig?
01:00:38Is everything you tell me a lie?
01:00:40What?
01:00:40I saw you kissing Trista!
01:00:43Don't try and deny it.
01:00:44You told me you loved me.
01:00:47I don't believe a word you say.
01:00:49Hallie, please, please believe me.
01:00:51That was a mistake.
01:00:52God, the only mistake I ever made was coming back here.
01:00:56I don't know what I thought I'd find.
01:00:59But now I know.
01:01:02I dodged a bullet seven years ago.
01:01:04Hi!
01:01:08I'd like to inform Senator Ned Vogel that his perfect little fiancé is cheating on him with her husband.
01:01:16And don't worry.
01:01:18I have pictures to prove it.
01:01:23No, this isn't a prank phone call.
01:01:25I have proof.
01:01:30What?
01:01:31No, I'm not lying.
01:01:32Hello?
01:01:34Hello?
01:01:37I guess I'll just have to go to the New York Post with this one.
01:01:41You're buried, Hallie.
01:01:45Ned, hi.
01:01:46Hallie, great news.
01:01:48I just got off the phone with my lawyer.
01:01:50He said because you're giving up custody, parenting class is unnecessary.
01:01:53So you can sign the papers today and you'll be divorced by tomorrow.
01:01:58Tomorrow?
01:01:59Yeah.
01:02:00I already got a schedule for a gala Saturday,
01:02:02a fundraising brunch on Sunday.
01:02:04I can't wait to get you back on my arm in that pretty little black dress of yours.
01:02:08Me either.
01:02:12Well, you don't sound very happy.
01:02:13It's just...
01:02:14What about Natalie?
01:02:17My daughter?
01:02:17What are you going to do, Hallie?
01:02:18Bring the kid with you to New York?
01:02:20Co-parent with your ex?
01:02:22No.
01:02:22Look, if you want to have a baby, we can have a baby together.
01:02:28But I'm not going to raise someone else's kids, okay?
01:02:31Just sign over the custody and divorce it.
01:02:34Today.
01:02:35There's nothing there for you anymore, Hallie.
01:02:38Not anymore.
01:02:43You're right.
01:02:44There is nothing left for me here.
01:02:47Hallie...
01:02:47I'm giving up custody.
01:02:49And going back to New York.
01:02:51You win, Craig.
01:02:53Win?
01:02:54You never wanted me to be a part of Natalie's life.
01:02:57Or yours.
01:02:58Well, congratulations.
01:03:01You got your wish.
01:03:02Hallie, please just hear me out.
01:03:04That's not the full story.
01:03:05There is nothing that you can say that will change anything.
01:03:08The damage is done.
01:03:10Let's just...
01:03:12Sign the papers and end this marriage.
01:03:16Party one agrees to give up full custody.
01:03:20Correct?
01:03:22That's right.
01:03:23Okay, so regarding the parental rights of Natalie Hallie Brody...
01:03:28What, Hallie?
01:03:29Her middle name is Hallie?
01:03:31She's your daughter, too.
01:03:34She's your daughter, too.
01:03:36Oh, my God.
01:03:40She belongs here.
01:03:43I'm not going to raise someone else's kid.
01:03:47Ma'am.
01:03:49They sounded the dotted line.
01:03:55It's really over.
01:03:58Now for the divorce papers.
01:04:12Yes.
01:04:12Now for the divorce papers.
01:04:12Is that it?
01:04:22Yes.
01:04:24Congratulations.
01:04:25In 24 hours, you'll be ex-husband and wife.
01:04:29It was nice being married to you, Hallie Bovner.
01:04:34Wish I could say the same, Craig Brody.
01:04:35Lulu, um, I'll be back in the city by tonight.
01:04:46Rebook my meetings and get me a pedicure appointment.
01:04:49Thank God.
01:04:50I thought you were never coming back.
01:04:52But then I remembered.
01:04:54You're Hallie Bovner.
01:04:55Your work is your life.
01:04:58My life.
01:05:00Right.
01:05:00Um, by the way, did you ever do that favor I asked?
01:05:08Oh, you mean that favor where I went to 50 different toy stores all over the city just for one special kid?
01:05:15Yes, I did.
01:05:17Which, might I ask, who is this special child?
01:05:22My daughter.
01:05:23A monster truck 300?
01:05:31This is the best present ever.
01:05:35Who's next?
01:05:36Damn, why don't you get Natalie's present over with?
01:05:39We all know it's going to be the worst.
01:05:43Here it is.
01:05:44Look how tiny it is.
01:05:46Catch.
01:05:50It's probably a gum wrapper.
01:05:53Or a half-meat an apple.
01:05:55She's so poor, she probably can't afford anything else.
01:06:00Guys, be nice.
01:06:01At least if it's not a tree branch, like last time.
01:06:06It was a walking stick, and my dad made it.
01:06:09That's right, your dad.
01:06:10Because where's your mom again?
01:06:12That's right, nowhere.
01:06:17Oops.
01:06:18Hope it wasn't fragile.
01:06:23It's a friendship bracelet.
01:06:26Friendship?
01:06:27We're not friends.
01:06:29That's so sad.
01:06:32I can't believe you actually invited this freak to your party.
01:06:36My mom forced me to.
01:06:37If you had a mom, she'd help you pick out a real present, not this dumb piece of string.
01:06:43I do have a mom.
01:06:46Then, where is she?
01:06:48She lives in New York, and she's a powerful CEO.
01:06:50Why do you make up a story like that?
01:06:52If your mom was a powerful CEO, she would give you better gifts than this.
01:07:00Momless loser.
01:07:01Momless loser.
01:07:03Momless loser.
01:07:05Momless loser.
01:07:07Momless loser.
01:07:09Momless loser.
01:07:11Momless loser.
01:07:13Nobody can take your power away from you, except you.
01:07:18Don't ever forget that.
01:07:19You were wrong, Mommy.
01:07:20And you left me.
01:07:22You know what?
01:07:23Forget this.
01:07:33Hi.
01:07:33I have a delivery for Sam Baker.
01:07:36That's me.
01:07:37Okay.
01:07:39These must be for my uncle.
01:07:41He's super rich.
01:07:44Where do you think you're going?
01:07:46I never should have come.
01:07:47I'm getting out of here.
01:07:49Actually, you're going to stay here and watch what real presents look like.
01:07:54Yeah, and maybe next time you'll come up with something better than a stupid piece of string.
01:07:59A pickleball racket?
01:08:01Nintendo Switch?
01:08:03A build room bar kit?
01:08:05An e-scooter?
01:08:07A Monster Truck 400?
01:08:09These must cost a fortune.
01:08:13Uncle Rick is the best.
01:08:16Actually, these gifts are from Natalie's mom.
01:08:23My mommy.
01:08:24She does love me.
01:08:25Wait.
01:08:26This has to be a prank.
01:08:28Natalie is just lying about her mom.
01:08:30She isn't real.
01:08:31Well, someone very real signed for these purchase orders herself.
01:08:35All $15,000 worth of them.
01:08:37$15,000?
01:08:39How rich is she?
01:08:41Like I said, she's a powerful CEO in New York.
01:08:44And she's too busy to care what you small town losers think.
01:08:49No, wait.
01:08:49No.
01:08:50Where are you going?
01:08:51Uh, it's okay.
01:08:52You can sit next to me.
01:08:53No.
01:08:54Sit next to me.
01:08:55I want to be friends with you if you pay me.
01:08:59Enjoy the presents, loser.
01:09:03And your cake is dry, by the way.
01:09:11Daddy.
01:09:14I don't know if you can hear me, but I wanted you to know I'm going back to New York.
01:09:20Okay?
01:09:21You were right about Craig.
01:09:22He's a liar.
01:09:26And a cheat.
01:09:27But the man I'm about to marry?
01:09:30He's rich.
01:09:33Handsome.
01:09:35Successful.
01:09:37Exactly.
01:09:38The kind of man you would have wanted for me.
01:09:41I'll miss you.
01:09:43Okay?
01:09:46You're running towards something.
01:09:48Back to your life.
01:09:50Go.
01:09:51Your father's in good hands.
01:09:53I promise.
01:09:54Would you look after Natalie?
01:09:56For me.
01:09:57Of course.
01:10:00Okay.
01:10:12Hi.
01:10:15Thank you, Ms. Buildner.
01:10:15First class is to the left.
01:10:17Thank you so much.
01:10:19Mommy!
01:10:19Natalie, what are you doing here?
01:10:23I'm coming with you to New York.
01:10:27The flight departs in one minute.
01:10:33Come on, Natalie.
01:10:34I'll take you home.
01:10:35Oh, my God.
01:10:43Where'd you find her?
01:10:45She was at the airport.
01:10:46Airport!
01:10:47I wanted to go up to New York City with Mommy.
01:10:51She knows.
01:10:52I cried.
01:10:55Natalie, can you give us a minute?
01:10:58Okay, Daddy.
01:11:00Thank you for bringing her back.
01:11:02Of course.
01:11:04But, um, before I go, I have a favor to ask you.
01:11:08Anything?
01:11:10Find Natalie a mother.
01:11:12Just make sure it's not Trista.
01:11:15Okay?
01:11:17Okay.
01:11:21Bye.
01:11:28After all these years, he never gave up on us.
01:11:51After all these years, he never gave up on us.
01:11:58You probably could have come up with something better.
01:12:02No, it's perfect.
01:12:06How long have you been working on this?
01:12:10A few years now.
01:12:12Ever since I left?
01:12:16Maybe.
01:12:18But why?
01:12:22I couldn't let our dream die just because our marriage did.
01:12:26A crazy dream?
01:12:29Doesn't look so crazy anymore, does it?
01:12:32No, it doesn't.
01:12:34Ellie, not a day goes by where I don't think about you.
01:12:39And I know, I know you won't believe a word I say, but I thought maybe you'd believe something you could see.
01:12:47Is that us?
01:12:57Yeah, it is.
01:13:02I love you.
01:13:07And I never stopped.
01:13:09I've missed this for so long.
01:13:27I've wanted this for so long.
01:13:29No.
01:13:30No, we have to stop.
01:13:35The papers are signed, Craig.
01:13:37I'm engaged to someone else.
01:13:39And it's too late to turn the clock back now.
01:13:42Send me a picture when the town's rebuilt, okay?
01:13:46That's the thing.
01:13:47It won't be.
01:13:48What?
01:13:49What do you mean?
01:13:50Got this in the mail today.
01:13:51My plans were approved, but Dirk Diggle bought up all the local contractors, and I can't afford anyone else, so I'm going to have to rescind my offer.
01:14:06No, you can't do that.
01:14:07I have to.
01:14:08I don't have a choice.
01:14:09What if I said, I could help.
01:14:14I could help.
01:14:19Go back to New York, Allie.
01:14:24Don't worry about someone's tiny little dream in a nowhere town.
01:14:30This was our dream, Craig.
01:14:35Besides, you helped me out with their diddles.
01:14:38She said she's not interested, bro.
01:14:43Now let me help you.
01:14:55Lulu.
01:14:56Um, change of plans.
01:14:59Send all of our best contractors to Franklin, Tennessee.
01:15:02Also, cancel my pedicure appointment.
01:15:04Have you come to withdraw your application, Craig?
01:15:12I knew you couldn't afford it.
01:15:14Well, actually, I just came to give you the deposit.
01:15:17We break ground tomorrow.
01:15:19We.
01:15:20We said we would fix this town.
01:15:21Mm-hmm.
01:15:22And that is exactly what we're going to do.
01:15:30I never thought I'd see the day where our dream became a reality.
01:15:35No, it was always your dream.
01:15:37I was just happy to help.
01:15:42Lulu!
01:15:43Oh, my God.
01:15:45Wow, boss.
01:15:46No wonder you never came back.
01:15:48You never told me your husband was a Stone Cold pun.
01:15:51Oh.
01:15:52Ex-husband.
01:15:53Right.
01:15:54Allie.
01:15:55Ned.
01:15:56Hi.
01:15:57Um, what are you doing here?
01:15:59I told you I would be back next week.
01:16:00You want to tell me what the meaning of this is?
01:16:09You told me there was nothing going on between you two.
01:16:16Are you trying to embarrass me on a national stage?
01:16:19No, um, no.
01:16:20Ned, I am so sorry.
01:16:22Uh, uh, is your campaign okay?
01:16:24It's fine.
01:16:25For now.
01:16:26Luckily, this is just a mock-up.
01:16:29Post gave it to us before going to press.
01:16:31Get in.
01:16:32I am taking you home.
01:16:34Ned, I told you this project is important.
01:16:38Hallie, you build multi-billion dollar skyscrapers.
01:16:42Not whatever this is.
01:16:45This matters.
01:16:47A sad little shopping mall in a sad little town?
01:16:50Come on, Hallie.
01:16:52You're better than this.
01:16:54What's that supposed to mean?
01:16:56Being back here, it has you confused.
01:16:59You don't know what you want.
01:17:01You don't know who you really are anymore.
01:17:03But this is your past.
01:17:07I am your future.
01:17:09Remember?
01:17:10You still want to marry me?
01:17:14Even after that?
01:17:15Yes.
01:17:16In fact, I want to move the wedding up.
01:17:18Let's get married right now.
01:17:23Let's get married right now.
01:17:25Right now?
01:17:26Excuse me.
01:17:33Hey.
01:17:34Seeing these photos, it made me realize how much you mean to me.
01:17:39I can't lose you, Hallie.
01:17:41I don't want to lose you.
01:17:43Please.
01:17:44Marry me.
01:17:45You're going to marry her?
01:17:46She was cheating on you.
01:17:48Who are you?
01:17:49I'm the woman that took these photos.
01:17:50So, you admit to sabotaging a political campaign.
01:17:51What?
01:17:52No.
01:17:53Ma'am, you're lucky the senator doesn't press charges.
01:17:54Come with me.
01:17:55What?
01:17:56No!
01:17:57No!
01:17:58No!
01:17:59No!
01:18:00You will not win this one, Hallie!
01:18:01No!
01:18:02Don't touch me!
01:18:03Ned, this all just feels a little fast.
01:18:06Yeah, but is it, Hallie?
01:18:07What are we waiting for?
01:18:08What are we waiting for?
01:18:25What are we waiting for?
01:18:29I don't know.
01:18:31Quit fucking around and marry me already.
01:18:34What's the rush, Ned?
01:18:36The post agreed to kill the cheating story, if we give them something better.
01:18:42Something like...
01:18:43A wedding, for example.
01:18:46You want to marry me? For a story?
01:18:49Come on, Hallie. We're gonna get married anyway. What difference does it make?
01:18:54Was this whole thing just a publicity stunt? Our engagement? Our relationship?
01:19:02No, of course not. I love you.
01:19:05Then what's my favorite color, Ned?
01:19:08Oh, come on, Hallie.
01:19:10My favorite flower?
01:19:14My favorite flower?
01:19:15I don't know. Roses? Does it even matter?
01:19:19Yes, it does.
01:19:22I'm sorry, Ned, but I can't marry you.
01:19:28Yes, you can.
01:19:29Because if you don't, I can make your life very difficult.
01:19:33Starting with those big city contracts you just won.
01:19:37I spent years of blood, sweat, and tears to get those contracts.
01:19:41But once I'm elected, I can make them all go poof.
01:19:45I have friends in very high places, Hallie.
01:19:48No, you wouldn't dare. I've worked my entire career for those.
01:19:52Well, then the answer is simple. Marry me, we'll lose everything.
01:19:58Come on, Hallie. This is not a difficult choice.
01:20:02You're hurting me.
01:20:03If you think this is pain, you haven't felt anything yet.
01:20:07Neither of you.
01:20:08My suit. My jaw.
01:20:22You broke my face.
01:20:25Good.
01:20:26Looks better that way, in my opinion.
01:20:28I have you arrested for assault a government official.
01:20:31There isn't a cop who will side with you over me.
01:20:34Not in this town.
01:20:37And by the way, her favorite color is blue, and her favorite flower, the miracle,
01:20:43as it blooms from spring to fall.
01:20:46There you go.
01:20:48I hope that suit isn't too expensive.
01:20:50This suit is worth more than you make in a year.
01:20:53Isn't that something?
01:20:54It's time for you to leave, Senator.
01:20:57Come on, Hallie.
01:20:58You're not going to give up everything just for some pathetic small-town nobody.
01:21:04He may be from a small town, but he is not a nobody.
01:21:10In fact, if I had to choose a son-in-law, I'd pick him over you any day of the week.
01:21:16Daddy!
01:21:18Hallie, I am so sorry for everything.
01:21:22Starting with meddling in your marriage.
01:21:25Meddling.
01:21:26I'm the one that made Craig divorce.
01:21:29I told him if he really loved you, he'd let you go.
01:21:33He did.
01:21:36I thought you deserved more than a small town.
01:21:40More than a local boy like him.
01:21:43She does, sir.
01:21:45Come on, Hallie.
01:21:47He divorced you.
01:21:48He gave up a daughter for you.
01:21:50So what if I want to marry you for a story?
01:21:53People get married for worse reasons.
01:21:55And they get divorced for better ones.
01:21:59How care what you think, oh man, Hallie, you're coming with me.
01:22:02You stay away from my daughter.
01:22:04Hallie, I am not leaving.
01:22:06You owe it to me to go through this wedding.
01:22:09I've had about enough of people telling me who I should and shouldn't marry.
01:22:13Get out of here, Ned.
01:22:17It's over between us.
01:22:23Get out of here, Ned.
01:22:25It's over between us.
01:22:28Fine.
01:22:29But I hope you know what you're giving up, Hallie.
01:22:34I most certainly do.
01:22:41It was too big anyway.
01:22:44Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
01:22:46What about me?
01:22:47I'll marry you.
01:22:49I'm sure the Post would love to see me at a wedding gown.
01:22:53And I would look way better than Hallie ever would.
01:22:56Not in a million years.
01:22:59Oh my gosh, ew!
01:23:01Ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew!
01:23:03Oh my gosh, I can't see me like this.
01:23:09I owe you both an apology for trying to play God.
01:23:15Daddy.
01:23:16Hear me out.
01:23:17When I was in the hospital and hooked up to all those machines,
01:23:21I just kept having the same wonderful dream.
01:23:25This dream where you were still together.
01:23:28This dream where you were both living the life you deserve.
01:23:32I took that future and that life away from you.
01:23:38Hallie.
01:23:39Craig never wanted to divorce you.
01:23:43Hallie.
01:23:44Craig never wanted to divorce you.
01:23:46How?
01:23:48This should be enough.
01:23:50I want her on that plane, alone, whatever it takes.
01:23:56I tried to pay him off.
01:24:00And this is what he did with the money.
01:24:03I've never seen someone work so hard for love.
01:24:07Is this true, Craig?
01:24:10Mm-hmm.
01:24:12Why didn't you just tell me?
01:24:14Because I didn't want you to hate your father or blame him when he just thought he was doing what was right.
01:24:21You were protecting me.
01:24:23That's right.
01:24:24You two are the only family you have left.
01:24:29Unless...
01:24:29Will you let me be a part of your family again?
01:24:35Now, I know this ring isn't exactly as big as your old one, but son, you'd make me the happiest man in the world if you would marry me again.
01:24:48No?
01:24:50Yes.
01:24:50Yes, Craig, I'll marry you.
01:24:53Oh, perfect fit.
01:25:00It always was.
01:25:03Mommy, Daddy, I knew you'd come back together.
01:25:05Oh, she did.
01:25:07All right, come on.
01:25:07Come on.
01:25:08Oh, we go.
01:25:09Dale, that wasn't such a crazy dream.
01:25:12I'd like you to meet your granddaughter, Natalie Hallie Brody.
01:25:16My dream came true.
01:25:18Hi, Grandpa.
01:25:20Hallie, this is crazy, but if we run, we can make it to the town clerk before it closes.
01:25:25I do not want to be divorced from you one second longer.
01:25:29Me either.
01:25:30Yeah?
01:25:31Yeah?
01:25:31Okay, what do we think?
01:25:33Who's up for our wedding?
01:25:35Yeah?
01:25:36Yeah?
01:25:38Yeah?
01:25:42Hi.
01:25:44Um, we would like to get remarried.
01:25:47I can't accept your remarriage.
01:25:50That's ridiculous.
01:25:52Uh, what?
01:25:53Why?
01:25:53Well, because you were never really divorced in the first place.
01:26:02Look right here.
01:26:04You signed your name Hallie Bildner.
01:26:07But your name is, and always has been, Hallie Brody.
01:26:11Will you look at that?
01:26:13Wait, so, um, that means the custody papers?
01:26:18Well, that's, uh, that's void.
01:26:21So, you're still Natalie's parents.
01:26:27Mommy!
01:26:31Daddy.
01:26:34I forgive you.
01:26:35I've got seven units to make up for.
01:26:54I've got seven units to make up for.
01:26:58I just want to thank you all for your faith in me.
01:27:11And as your new mayor, I promise to work tirelessly to bring this town back to what it once was.
01:27:17Starting with, the community center that Craig and Hallie so generously built.
01:27:26We love you, Milwartha.
01:27:27Love you.
01:27:28Love you.
01:27:29What do you think, Micheal?
01:27:36I don't know.
01:27:37I don't know.
01:27:37I don't know.
01:27:38I don't know.
01:27:38I don't know.
01:27:39It's not, it's pretty easy.
01:27:40Looks like they found a story to replace me with after all.
01:27:43Is there to really be right there?
01:27:53Yes.
01:27:54We're going to be one big happy family.
