00:12:45please

00:12:46please

00:12:59Wow, that dress fits you perfectly.

00:13:29How did you know my size?

00:13:32My grandfather used to work at a carnival.

00:13:34I could guess your weight too, but I'd rather just buy a dress for you.

00:13:41This room must have cost a fortune.

00:13:43Yeah, they tend to comp the room when you own the hotel.

00:13:53I'm used to my wine coming in a box.

00:13:55You are one of a kind and a supporter.

00:14:01No one has ever said that to me, Sebastian, where I was from.

00:14:04I'm used to my mom.

00:14:10I'm used to my mom.

00:15:42Oh, I am never too good for boxed wine.

00:15:47Oh, gosh.

00:15:48This has been such a whirlwind.

00:15:51I am falling so hard.

00:15:53Just be careful, honey.

00:15:54I know.

00:15:58I'm trying to take it slow.

00:16:01I mean, that merger is heating up.

00:16:03All the stockholders in the company have their eye on him right now.

00:16:05They might be looking to make it a hostile takeover.

00:16:09You're the only person I've told.

00:16:10We both decided to be discreet.

00:16:12Last thing he needs is media attention.

00:16:15It's also the last thing you need with your mom.

00:16:17How is Teresa doing?

00:16:18They say she has one more treatment and hopefully she'll be in remission.

00:16:22That's great news.

00:16:25I really need to keep this job.

00:16:26Are you just going to stand there or we're going to get to work?

00:16:35Do you have any idea what you're doing?

00:16:37We're getting so close to finalizing this merger.

00:16:40Of course I know what I'm doing with you.

00:16:59Are you just fighting on me?

00:17:03Not me.

00:17:05But somebody is.

00:17:07Those came across my desk earlier today.

00:17:10And I had to pay a pretty good penny to keep them out of the press.

00:17:14I'm not a married man.

00:17:16I can date somebody.

00:17:17Your divorce with Ruby isn't final.

00:17:19She won't sign the papers, Robert.

00:17:21Any way you cut it, Sebastian, it can be a problem.

00:17:24The board is wary of getting into business with another billionaire playboy.

00:17:29They like stability.

00:17:31Especially after that one in Gotham went rogue.

00:17:34Maybe it would help to be a happily married man.

00:17:38I don't think that exists.

00:17:41I got news for you, pal.

00:17:43It does.

00:17:4535 years.

00:17:52I wish I could tell the world how I feel about her.

00:17:56But the world finding out about us during my divorce would hurt the merger.

00:18:00We are playing with fire.

00:18:06But I care about him so much.

00:18:07I just can't jeopardize anything.

00:18:09Well, well, well.

00:18:19What do we have here?

00:18:22Excuse me?

00:18:23I'm Lombardi.

00:18:24Bruno Lombardi.

00:18:25Hi, I'm Vanessa.

00:18:28Mr. Armstrong's new assistant.

00:18:30We have so much in common.

00:18:32I'm also new at Armstrong Enterprises.

00:18:34I'm here to dictate the merger.

00:18:36But why talk about work while at work when we can talk about play while we play?

00:18:40What?

00:18:41Happy hour.

00:18:42Teenies only.

00:18:44Teenies?

00:18:46Martinis.

00:18:46Teenies to bikinis.

00:18:47Oh, that's funny.

00:18:52Yeah.

00:18:53What'd you say we get out of this wet clothes and into a dry martini?

00:19:00Are all your pickup lines martini-based?

00:19:03Yeah.

00:19:07We need to talk.

00:19:10Ruby, I didn't see you on my schedule.

00:19:12Oh, okay.

00:19:13I'm pretty sure I don't need to be on your schedule because I'm your wife.

00:19:17X, Y.

00:19:19What do you need?

00:19:20What's the problem?

00:19:21I'm still unhappy with the divorce terms.

00:19:24How can you be unhappy?

00:19:25It's fair.

00:19:26I paid you more than half.

00:19:28I still want you.

00:19:31No baby voice, Ruby.

00:19:33Okay, we're through.

00:19:35Fine.

00:19:36Clearly you don't want me anymore.

00:19:38But I do know that you want me to sign before the merger.

00:19:41The merger has nothing to do with you.

00:19:43What if I wanted to have something to do with me?

00:19:45You are entitled to none of that.

00:19:47We'll see about that.

00:19:50You need to get out of here before I call security.

00:19:52You wouldn't dare.

00:19:58You need to go.

00:19:59Come on, out the door.

00:20:00Hey there.

00:20:10Hey, sorry.

00:20:11I'm wiped.

00:20:13I know that you overheard Ruby yelling at me.

00:20:17It's none of my business.

00:20:18It's over between her and I.

00:20:20She does not think so.

00:20:22So, would you like to have dinner with me?

00:20:27I'm not really hungry.

00:20:31You sure about that?

00:20:32I don't think it's a good idea.

00:20:37Look, I know that we've both been under a lot of stress.

00:20:40We can just keep it simple.

00:20:42Have some good food, take our mind off things.

00:20:45No pressure.

00:20:46He's right.

00:20:46We're both under a lot of stress.

00:20:48But I can't put my stress on him.

00:20:50So, dinner?

00:20:52Keep it simple.

00:20:53Keep it simple.

00:20:54This is simple.

00:21:08You're worth it.

00:21:12I'm worried about the merger.

00:21:18You too.

00:21:19I'm not worried about you closing it.

00:21:21I'm worried about us.

00:21:22Look, it's almost a done deal.

00:21:25All eyes are on you.

00:21:27With this and your divorce,

00:21:29don't you worry that this will make the company think you're unfit?

00:21:31Unfit for what?

00:21:33The merger is just money.

00:21:34And I have money.

00:21:35But I don't have love.

00:21:40And I want to be with you.

00:21:44I don't know.

00:21:47Why are you so hesitant?

00:21:48I don't know if I can tell him.

00:21:52What's going on?

00:21:54My mom is...

00:21:57Cancer.

00:21:59She has cancer.

00:22:00And I just need to focus on work right now because her bills are mounting up.

00:22:04You know I can take care of that for you.

00:22:06No, Sebastian, that's not why I'm telling you.

00:22:09I don't want your charity.

00:22:11My mom always taught me to earn everything I get.

00:22:13Well, she sounds like a strong woman.

00:22:19She's the strongest woman I know.

00:22:21I admire you.

00:22:22I don't need to be admired.

00:22:24I need to be understood.

00:22:28Understood.

00:22:28I think we should slow down a little.

00:22:33What are you talking about?

00:22:35Maybe just be friends.

00:22:38I don't think I could just be friends with you.

00:22:41I don't think I can be anything more.

00:22:42I see you.

00:22:57What?

00:22:58I see you.

00:23:00You're a rising star of this company.

00:23:02I am just trying to work here.

00:23:04I don't need any distractions.

00:23:06Let me guess.

00:23:07Your job's a joke.

00:23:08You're broke.

00:23:09Your love life's the OA.

00:23:10It's like you're always stuck in second gear.

00:23:14It hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year.

00:23:22No.

00:23:25Babe, come on.

00:23:29Release the attention.

00:23:35Maybe this is for the better.

00:23:37I have to get Sebastian to end this.

00:23:39This is the only way.

00:23:41Uh, yeah.

00:23:43That's the spot.

00:23:45That's what I'm talking about, girl.

00:23:57Oh.

00:23:58Sorry, Mr. Sebastian.

00:24:00Hey, Sebastian.

00:24:01Don't worry.

00:24:01We're off the clock.

00:24:03Yeah.

00:24:03This is hot.

00:24:10Don't ever touch me again.

00:24:17Play hard again?

00:24:19I like that.

00:24:21Brew no likey.

00:24:24You're a big stud.

00:24:25You got this.

00:24:26She's yours.

00:24:27Two can play this game.

00:24:31I'll be there for you.

00:24:38Hey.

00:24:39I'm sorry about...

00:24:41There's nothing to be sorry about.

00:24:42We're both adults.

00:24:43You don't owe me anything.

00:24:45He was just being...

00:24:47I don't care about him.

00:24:50I just...

00:24:51I don't know.

00:24:51I thought that you were different.

00:24:52I...

00:24:53I have to let this happen.

00:24:55You know what?

00:24:56I think you're right.

00:24:58I think that we should just be friends.

00:25:01No.

00:25:03More like work colleagues.

00:25:07Because I had hoped that we were going to build something together.

00:25:11But my life, my business wasn't built off hope.

00:25:14It was built off hard work.

00:25:16That's Sebastian.

00:25:16No, and I was blinded by what I thought was such an amazing person.

00:25:22But the reality is you're just like everyone else.

00:25:27You're just after my money.

00:25:29Sebastian, I don't...

00:25:36How about we finish where we started?

00:25:40Get off.

00:25:40What about all that break room talk?

00:25:42I thought I told you never touch me again.

00:25:45Let's pretend I didn't hear that.

00:25:46Get off me, Bruno.

00:25:48I'm not interested.

00:25:49Don't be that interested.

00:25:58No regrets.

00:26:04Tell me everything.

00:26:07It was terrible what I did.

00:26:09But this merger was so important to Sebastian.

00:26:11I couldn't risk losing it for him.

00:26:13You were never going to lose it for him.

00:26:15I can't be a distraction to him.

00:26:17Maybe he needs a distraction.

00:26:20What did you do?

00:26:23I almost kissed Bruno.

00:26:26The aggressive guy?

00:26:27He only did it to make Sebastian forget about me so he could think about the merger.

00:26:32I hope you know what you're doing.

00:26:34I wish we had met in college.

00:26:41Things would be so different.

00:26:48Kate, I don't know how to fix this.

00:26:49Girl, you can't fix being in love.

00:26:52What do you think Sebastian's doing right now?

00:27:04What is wrong with you?

00:27:05I mean, you have everything.

00:27:07And even after this merger, you'll have even more.

00:27:11You can have any woman you desire.

00:27:12Boy, don't ask that I'm humble.

00:27:23You'd give it all up and be with her, wouldn't you?

00:27:25Well, if you love her, then you should just go to her.

00:27:34What do you have to drink in this dump?

00:27:36Ruby.

00:27:37What are you doing here?

00:27:38Come in.

00:27:39I'm sorry.

00:27:40I was a cranky bitch earlier.

00:27:42What are you doing here?

00:27:43Well, things got a little heated earlier.

00:27:46And I thought I should come make amends.

00:27:50Is it me?

00:27:52Well, is it hot in here?

00:28:06I've missed you.

00:28:20We were so good together.

00:28:21We were so good together.

00:28:31Let me take you to the bedroom.

00:28:36No, no, no.

00:28:44Hey, I'm sorry.

00:28:44I can't do this.

00:28:48Look, we had something in the past, Ruby.

00:28:52Here, just put this on.

00:28:55Is this about that bitch?

00:28:58Don't call her that.

00:29:00You'll regret this, Sebastian Armstrong.

00:29:06Hey, hey, get off of me.

00:29:27Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, what is that?

00:29:30You must have dropped it.

00:29:37Oh, my God, somebody's been spying on us.

00:29:39Thanks for the statement, ma'am.

00:29:49We'll keep an eye out for the perp.

00:29:51In the meantime, try to get some rest.

00:29:54Good night.

00:30:01Yeah, of course.

00:30:04How did you know where I lived?

00:30:07I looked your address up at work.

00:30:10I was coming over to apologize.

00:30:12About what?

00:30:12Look, I was a jerk earlier, and I overreacted.

00:30:18It's okay.

00:30:19Vanessa.

00:30:22People in my position have a very hard time with dating.

00:30:25Everyone only seems to want one thing from me,

00:30:28and that's why I have to be protective.

00:30:30I've been blinded by love before.

00:30:32Ruby?

00:30:33That obvious, huh?

00:30:35She's, um...

00:30:36Bitch?

00:30:36Yeah, and she also could put this hold on people.

00:30:42And I didn't realize it till much later that she's just a gold digger.

00:30:47And she never loved me.

00:30:48She only loved my bank account.

00:30:50And that's why I tend to be defensive.

00:30:54Sebastian, maybe it's just not the right time for us.

00:30:58You have this merger.

00:30:59I don't want you to lose sight of it.

00:31:04And you have your mother.

00:31:05How's she doing?

00:31:08She has her last treatment coming up, so we're hopeful.

00:31:12Yeah.

00:31:14She knows that I put off my career goals to take care of her.

00:31:18And she carries that guilt.

00:31:22The other day, she said that sometimes she wished she had died.

00:31:28So I could live.

00:31:31She's a strong woman, just like you.

00:31:33Look, I appreciate your generosity.

00:31:36But as of now, all I'm asking is that we remain boss and secretary.

00:31:45Deal?

00:31:48Deal.

00:31:51Under one condition.

00:31:53What is it?

00:31:53You replace this.

00:32:00Sure.

00:32:01You still have my black Amex card?

00:32:03I never used it.

00:32:05Okay.

00:32:05Well, you need to go down to La Tour Boutique and get yourself another cocktail dress.

00:32:10I'm not going to do that.

00:32:13Well, you need to because I need you to attend a dinner with me.

00:32:16No dates.

00:32:19No, no, it's not a date.

00:32:21Personal assistant.

00:32:22Strictly business.

00:32:23You feed me the names of people that I should know.

00:32:26It's boring, but the food is good.

00:32:30So what do you say?

00:32:31Deal?

00:32:32That's my one condition.

00:32:34You really are a good negotiator.

00:32:35You should probably go.

00:32:45Okay.

00:32:54Can I help you?

00:32:56Yes, yes.

00:32:57I am looking for a dress.

00:32:58Looks like you need a whole new wardrobe.

00:33:00Oh, probably.

00:33:02Sorry, we don't have anything in the hobo casual collection.

00:33:07Oh, I know, I know.

00:33:08I don't usually shop at places like this, but I actually walk by here all the time and stare

00:33:13at that dress in the window.

00:33:15Not to cut you off.

00:33:16I'm pretty busy here, and we only serve to high-end clients.

00:33:22Okay.

00:33:26Maybe I'm in the wrong store.

00:33:27Maybe you are.

00:33:29I should probably go.

00:33:31You should.

00:33:32No, wait just a minute.

00:33:35What is going on here?

00:33:36I don't belong here.

00:33:37Of course you do.

00:33:38Mr. Sebastian Armstrong, welcome.

00:33:40You weren't very welcoming to my friend here.

00:33:42I didn't know she was...

00:33:43That shouldn't matter.

00:33:44You don't have to do this.

00:33:46Yes, I do.

00:33:47You should treat everyone who walks through that door with respect.

00:33:50I'm so sorry, Mr. Armstrong.

00:33:53I'm really sorry.

00:33:54My boyfriend just dumped me, and I'm in a terrible mood.

00:33:58It's okay.

00:33:58I actually have those same sneakers that you're wearing.

00:34:01I love them.

00:34:02Also, that dress in the window, I love it too.

00:34:05But I'm jealous because I know it'll look way better on you.

00:34:08Plus, I have at least food.

00:34:09I'm oversharing.

00:34:11Just wrap up the dress.

00:34:12We have a big event to attend to tonight.

00:34:15Sorry, I know that this is a lot.

00:34:35I don't want to let you down.

00:34:38You won't.

00:34:38Just stick with me.

00:34:39I have some cocktail hour negotiating.

00:34:41Okay.

00:34:45Oh, God.

00:34:47I didn't realize they let trash in here.

00:34:49Ruby, this isn't the time or the place.

00:34:51Sebastian, you haven't answered any of my phone calls.

00:34:54Our divorce terms are unacceptable.

00:34:56I'm sorry, Ms. Cromwell, that Sebastian was about to give you a speech.

00:34:59I'm sorry.

00:34:59Who the fuck are you?

00:35:01This is a conversation between my husband and I.

00:35:05You mean your ex-husband.

00:35:07Oh, no.

00:35:16I'm so sorry.

00:35:17I'm such a klutz.

00:35:18And now, ladies and gentlemen, may we present Mr. Sebastian Armstrong.

00:35:32I think it's about time we got legal involved to talk about these terms and details.

00:35:36Before it goes to legal, should I have my guys look at it?

00:35:39Your guys.

00:35:41Just keep taking notes.

00:35:43You're new here, so maybe you can learn a thing or two about negotiating.

00:35:46Pretty sure I could teach you a thing or two.

00:35:54Thank you, Vanessa.

00:35:57Let me know if you need anything else.

00:35:59I need some of that.

00:36:01Damn, she's hot.

00:36:03Nothing wrong with dipping the pen in the company ink.

00:36:06Am I right, boys?

00:36:08I didn't know that you two were an item.

00:36:10There's a lot you don't know about me, Seb.

00:36:13It's Mr. Armstrong.

00:36:14Oh, so formal.

00:36:17This company needed a little joke like me.

00:36:20Guys, this isn't a pissing contest.

00:36:22Yeah, I know.

00:36:24Because I already got the prize.

00:36:27So, you are dating.

00:36:29I mean, if you call getting freaky in a two-star hotel dating.

00:36:32Come on, keep it classy.

00:36:34You won't be doing anything classy tonight.

00:36:38Respect the workplace.

00:36:40And you chill.

00:36:42You ain't got money like us.

00:36:44Cheap sluts like Vanessa are a dime a dozen.

00:36:50Stop.

00:36:51You're done.

00:36:54Get out of here.

00:36:55Pack your shit up.

00:36:56We don't do sexual harassment at this company.

00:36:58Okay, big boss man.

00:37:00I'll leave.

00:37:02But you're going to regret this.

00:37:03You have no idea who I am and what I'm capable of.

00:37:07Just leave, son.

00:37:08It's over.

00:37:09Don't worry, Sebastian.

00:37:14I got your back.

00:37:16Back in my day, guys like him would have gotten it much worse.

00:37:20This won't affect our negotiations at all.

00:37:23It's good to be rid of the bad energy in the room.

00:37:30Oh, my God.

00:37:39Vanessa, what's wrong?

00:37:40Someone vandalized my car.

00:37:42What?

00:37:43Are you okay?

00:37:49Stop.

00:37:50There.

00:37:56I can't see their faces.

00:37:58They're wearing masks.

00:38:00The time stamp says it's from this afternoon, so it can't be...

00:38:02Bruno.

00:38:05He was in my office at that time.

00:38:08I'll send this to the authorities.

00:38:10I'm scared.

00:38:15I'll protect you.

00:38:21Oh, there's my sweet daughter.

00:38:23Hi, Doc.

00:38:24How's my mom doing?

00:38:26Hi, Vanessa.

00:38:27Your mother is doing exceptionally well.

00:38:29We couldn't be happier with her results.

00:38:32And as you know, the entire staff loves her.

00:38:35Just trying to make the best of it.

00:38:36Hopefully, this will be her last treatment and send her cancer into remission.

00:38:41The only sad thing is, Miss Porter won't be brightening up our oncology ward anymore.

00:38:45Stop.

00:38:48I'll leave you, too.

00:38:52How are you, honey?

00:38:53I'm good.

00:38:54Work's really busy.

00:38:56Well, you always manage to keep a handle on everything.

00:38:59I just can't wait to get out of here.

00:39:01Food sucks.

00:39:02Are you okay?

00:39:04You seem a bit distracted.

00:39:07I have to tell you something, Mom.

00:39:08I don't want you to worry.

00:39:10Well, I'm going to worry whether you tell me or not.

00:39:13I think I have a stalker.

00:39:15What?

00:39:16If someone vandalized my car, they wrote a bad word.

00:39:20A magic marker.

00:39:20Well, maybe some vinegar or something will help get that off.

00:39:24I know, Mom.

00:39:25I think it was somehow connected to this guy at work.

00:39:28This guy at work, Bruno Lombardi.

00:39:30He has been all over me and is starting to worry me out.

00:39:33You said Bruno Lombardi?

00:39:35John Lombardi's son?

00:39:37John Lombardi runs a crime family.

00:39:43Yes.

00:39:44And Bruno is quote-unquote heir to that throne.

00:39:48A crime family?

00:39:50Yeah.

00:39:51Your uncle had some run-in with them years ago.

00:39:54They're thugs.

00:39:55And if Bruno is anything like his father, you want to be swiping left, like the kids say.

00:40:00I think he got fired today.

00:40:01What if he blames me for everything?

00:40:03Kids today.

00:40:04They always want to blame somebody else for their issues.

00:40:07They can't take responsibility.

00:40:08They're not my baby girl.

00:40:13The Lombardi crime family accused of racketeering, human trafficking?

00:40:18Apparently, he's still running the crime family from prison.

00:40:23And he's grooming Bruno to take over.

00:40:26They've got some troubles going on.

00:40:27So, honey, please be careful.

00:40:29I have to warn Sebastian.

00:40:32I have to go, Mom.

00:40:33I love you.

00:40:37You need a replacement for the whore-mobile.

00:40:56You know I can accept this.

00:40:58You have to.

00:40:59I really can't.

00:41:00Then why not?

00:41:01Sebastian, I'm worried.

00:41:07I found out that Bruno has ties to the Mafia.

00:41:10No, our HR fully vetted him.

00:41:12I'm sure there's ways of skirting that.

00:41:14Word is he's being groomed to become head of the crime family.

00:41:18Then why would he want a job here?

00:41:19I don't know.

00:41:20He could be dangerous.

00:41:22Look, you don't need to worry about that anymore.

00:41:24Because I fired him.

00:41:25That's why I'm worried.

00:41:28Look, I have the best security that money can buy.

00:41:32We don't need to be intimidated by people like Bruno.

00:41:36And we need to focus on the good that we can do.

00:41:39And speaking of, I have a charity event that I'd like you to help me out with tonight.

00:41:44Charity?

00:41:45Yes, for cancer research.

00:41:46Oh.

00:41:47I would love to.

00:41:49Hmm?

00:41:49But I don't know.

00:41:51Look, somebody just dropped out last minute.

00:41:53You'd be doing me a big, big favor.

00:41:55It's at the Biltmore Ballroom, 6 p.m. tonight.

00:42:01One condition.

00:42:03Okay.

00:42:04What?

00:42:07To take the car back.

00:42:11Fine.

00:42:14See you tonight.

00:42:17Damn.

00:42:20He is a good negotiator.

00:42:33You must be the new model.

00:42:36You're on stage in five.

00:42:37On stage?

00:42:39What is this?

00:42:40This is a charity auction.

00:42:42People are going to bid on you for dates.

00:42:44No, no, no, no.

00:42:45I can't do this.

00:42:46Are you kidding?

00:42:47This is going to be fun.

00:42:48And it's for a good cause, girl.

00:42:50You wouldn't mind a man bidding on me for a change.

00:42:52Yeah.

00:42:55Going once, going twice.

00:42:58And she is sold to that gentleman over there for $500,000 for a special date.

00:43:04And this is a new charity record for us.

00:43:06Thank you for your generosity, sir.

00:43:10Oh.

00:43:13What you lucky here.

00:43:15I guess they let anyone into these charity events, don't they?

00:43:19Next on stage, please welcome Vanessa Porter.

00:43:23I just sold for $500,000.

00:43:27I set a new charity record.

00:43:29That crowd is going to eat you up.

00:43:32And remember, ladies and gents, your bids will be going towards a very special cause,

00:43:37Cancer Research Labs.

00:43:39Standing next to me is our beautiful last model, Vanessa Porter.

00:43:43The lucky winner will be taking this lovely lady on a date and just dinner.

00:43:48No funny business.

00:43:49Okay, I'm talking to you, Mr. Rolstein.

00:43:52Mm-hmm.

00:43:52The bidding will start at $300,000.

00:43:56$500,000.

00:43:58$500,000.

00:44:00$600,000.

00:44:01Great.

00:44:02We have $600,000 over there.

00:44:05$700,000.

00:44:07We got $700,000 over here.

00:44:08$800,000.

00:44:10$800,000.

00:44:12$1 million.

00:44:18$1 million, sir.

00:44:21Wow, what an amazing finale.

00:44:23Any other bids?

00:44:24Going once?

00:44:26Going twice?

00:44:29And sold to that gentleman over there for $1 million.

00:44:33What an amazing finale.

00:44:36Beating the previous record of...

00:44:38What's her name?

00:44:40Um, anyway, sir, please come up and claim your prize.

00:44:45This is going to be fun.

00:44:46You cannot go out on that date.

00:44:52It could be dangerous.

00:44:53I don't have a choice.

00:44:55You always have a choice.

00:44:57It's in the next room.

00:44:58It's in a controlled space.

00:45:00Why are you doing this?

00:45:01Because he wants me to back out.

00:45:04He wants to make you look bad.

00:45:06I'm doing this for the charity.

00:45:08It's just dinner in public.

00:45:09It'll be fine.

00:45:12Okay.

00:45:13I trust you.

00:45:13I also want to see what Bruno's up to.

00:45:19What's his game plan?

00:45:24You know, for a winning bet of $1 million, you'd think they'd serve at a hooch.

00:45:28I'd rather be home, drinking my wine from a box.

00:45:33We have so much in common.

00:45:36I'd rather be at your home, too.

00:45:38What do you want from me?

00:45:40What are you talking about, baby?

00:45:42I just want to get to know you.

00:45:44Oh, I have been very clear.

00:45:48I am not interested.

00:45:51Don't you know who I am?

00:45:53Oh, I know who you think you are.

00:45:57I paid a lot of money for this date.

00:45:59I mean, Cassina, I can make things very difficult for you and your little boyfriend.

00:46:03You know, this wine ain't that bad.

00:46:17Where are you going?

00:46:19The date ain't over yet, sweetheart.

00:46:22Can a girl use the restroom?

00:46:23Stop playing games, babe.

00:46:36We know what that $1 million bought me.

00:46:44I'm good, everybody.

00:46:45I'm good.

00:46:50Oh.

00:46:53Knock, knock.

00:47:01Hey, how was the date?

00:47:04And, um, who was this from?

00:47:07Uh, from Bruno, with all my love.

00:47:08Thanks for the magical night.

00:47:10Well, I guess that answers that.

00:47:11No, Sebastian, that's...

00:47:13It wasn't...

00:47:13No, no, it's fine.

00:47:14I have some work I need to be doing now.

00:47:23I'm just throwing this out there, but I think I'm entitled to more like 65%.

00:47:33Yeah, yeah, that sounds fine.

00:47:35Fine?

00:47:36Sebastian, that's robbery.

00:47:38Your head isn't in the game.

00:47:40We need to wrap this up so we can send it before Congress and push this merger through soon.

00:47:45A good negotiation is where both parties walk away equally unhappy.

00:47:50And right now, Sebastian, I'm very happy.

00:47:54That's it, Sebastian.

00:48:01I'm done.

00:48:03It's over.

00:48:05Wait, what do you mean that it's over?

00:48:07We need a break.

00:48:08Listen, why don't we take a long weekend?

00:48:11You can go home and refocus on this merger, and I can spend some time with my grandkids.

00:48:17We've spent every day at this damn office.

00:48:19We can come back on Tuesday and wrap this thing up.

00:48:24Okay.

00:48:25Yeah, yeah, that's a good idea.

00:48:27Let me...

00:48:28Everyone, listen up.

00:48:31Everyone can have all for the week with pay.

00:48:42So, Dave, any plans for the weekend?

00:48:45How would I?

00:48:45I just found out I have the week off.

00:48:47Hmm, well, I'd like to take you to dinner.

00:48:49Sebastian, I...

00:48:50I can't.

00:48:53But thank you.

00:48:54My mom's still in the hospital, so I have to go visit her.

00:48:57Well, maybe she'd like a box of chocolates.

00:48:59Yeah, maybe she would.

00:49:06Can I come in?

00:49:08Jesus.

00:49:09Fine.

00:49:10I'd love to have a drink, but I can't.

00:49:13Well, no one offered you one.

00:49:14I can't, because I'm pregnant.

00:49:15You're pregnant.

00:49:20I don't know how to tell you this, Sebastian, but you're the father.

00:49:25That's impossible.

00:49:26We broke up three months ago.

00:49:32Can't you tell?

00:49:32I'm three months pregnant.

00:49:35No, no, no.

00:49:35I can't be the father.

00:49:37Okay.

00:49:37Well, I have a paternity test and ultrasound.

00:49:39Let's see different.

00:49:42There.

00:49:43Well, if this is true, then I'm not the type of man that runs from his responsibilities.

00:50:04That's what I love about you.

00:50:05You're so responsible.

00:50:07You need to go.

00:50:10I need time to think, Ruby.

00:50:12Leave that there for you.

00:50:23I don't know how I'm going to tell Vanessa, but I have to be honest with her.

00:50:28I think we got them.

00:50:29I hope so.

00:50:33You riding whore on her car did nothing.

00:50:36And me leaving those photos that I took when I broke into her house also didn't work.

00:50:39Okay, well, I'm still out two grand for a fake paternity test.

00:50:43I really thought Sebastian hitting me would ruin this merger.

00:50:46Okay, I still want the merger to happen, moron.

00:50:48I just want the divorce to happen after so that I get half.

00:50:52And if that doesn't work, we'll move on to plan C and eliminate Sebastian altogether.

00:50:57I know exactly where he hangs out when he needs time alone.

00:51:01He'll pay for humiliating a Lombardi.

00:51:28That is beautiful and delicious.

00:51:40Who's it from?

00:51:42I hope it's not from Bruno.

00:51:44Oh, my God.

00:51:48If you change your mind, I'm here for you.

00:51:51With all my love, Sebastian.

00:51:53It's a plane ticket to Italy.

00:52:06You must go.

00:52:08I'm not leaving, Mom.

00:52:15Two tickets.

00:52:20Mom, how are you feeling?

00:52:22I'm feeling like I need to see the Italian countryside and eat some authentic Italian.

00:52:29It's like we're going to Italy.

00:52:30Yes.

00:52:45Welcome.

00:52:46Hi.

00:52:46Nice to finally meet you.

00:52:51Oh, lovely to meet you, too.

00:52:52Yeah, come on in.

00:52:55So, Miss Porter, how are you doing?

00:52:59Wonderful.

00:53:00Just wonderful.

00:53:02Thank you so much for bringing my daughter and I out here.

00:53:05And that private jet experience, that is the way to travel.

00:53:10And the food was delicious.

00:53:13What's mine is yours.

00:53:13So, feel free to make yourself at home.

00:53:20Hmm.

00:53:21Mom, where are you going?

00:53:22Are you feeling okay?

00:53:23I'm fine.

00:53:24Absolutely awesome.

00:53:26I have never felt better.

00:53:28Yeah.

00:53:29So, I'm just off now to find myself an Italian man.

00:53:32Mom.

00:53:33You are in the right place, then.

00:53:36Oh, do not encourage her.

00:53:37I'm going to leave you guys alone.

00:53:41Enjoy.

00:53:43Well, cheers to that.

00:53:45Cheers to that.

00:53:50I need to come clean.

00:53:53Bruno and I...

00:53:55Well, I don't care about...

00:53:56No, listen.

00:53:56We were never a thing.

00:53:58You and Bruno never had an affair?

00:53:59No, I faked the whole thing.

00:54:02Why?

00:54:02I didn't know how to break it off with you.

00:54:07I was afraid I was a distraction.

00:54:09So, I lied.

00:54:11And it blew up in my face.

00:54:15Vanessa, I need you to understand something very clearly.

00:54:18I'm not distracted by us together.

00:54:21I'm distracted by us apart.

00:54:22And I also want to be honest with you about something.

00:54:39Ruby told me that she is pregnant and it's mine.

00:54:43What?

00:54:43How?

00:54:44Look, I don't believe her, but I still do need to play this thing right.

00:54:47And I hope that you can trust me on this.

00:54:52Okay.

00:54:54I trust you.

00:54:58I love you.

00:55:03I love you, too.

00:55:22I love you, Vanessa Porter.

00:55:50I love you, Sebastian Armstrong.
