00:00I'm sorry, you were supposed to be here 15 minutes ago. I'm back to get you this job and you're already trying to get fired in your first week here.
00:18It wasn't my fault. I was stuck on train for 20 minutes.
00:20It means that Grace O'Connell is a menace. He's already tried to fire like five assistants in the past two months and he hates excuses, so none of that.
00:31Here.
00:36Alyssa! Do me proud.
00:50You're waiting. I come back from the gym to no coffee and you're frazzled.
01:13You'll be setting the bar low for a new assistant, Miss Troy.
01:16At least I trust.
01:18Excuse me?
01:21I'm sorry, Mr. O'Connor. I'll get you a coffee right away.
01:29Watch your mouth around here, Miss Troy. It'll get you in trouble.
01:33And you call that trust?
01:35This is an office, not a slumber party.
01:41Hello, darling.
01:43Oh, good. The new secretary's here. I'll have a large iced Americano.
01:48Good job.
01:55Not much to look at, is she?
01:58Now you, on the other hand.
02:00Good enough to eat. I wasn't expecting breakfast and a show.
02:04Ready to go?
02:05You forgot?
02:06I didn't forget. I've worked hard. I know the concept is foreign to you, but...
02:14Come on, baby. Work hard. Play hard.
02:17That's your baby, Melinda. We're not together.
02:20Never have been. Never will be.
02:22Teeth.
02:23Teeth.
02:24By the way, Daddy says congrats on the big win.
02:28Does he, um...
02:31Say anything else?
02:33He's not gonna name me a partner because of one big win.
02:37Be serious, Brycey.
02:39And only family can run Sam Pepper and Sons.
02:44But if you're really interested, um...
02:46I might know a way.
02:48If you'll excuse me, Miss Sam Pepper.
02:59You're Americano, Miss?
03:04Okay, then.
03:05I need these deposition transcripts color-coded by tonight.
03:14You can bring them to my place when we're done.
03:17I'm out for the day.
03:20Tonight?
03:22That's impossible.
03:23I already have so much to catch up on from your previous assistants.
03:26So you're saying...
03:28you can't keep up?
03:31What a shame.
03:32Oh, I am more than capable.
03:38I'm sorry.
03:40Approval.
03:43Watch me.
03:51Oh, well, Connell's really living up to his reputation as a man, or...
03:56Is it hot in here or is it just you two?
03:58Ah, no.
03:59No, thank you.
04:00I've sworn off men.
04:01Thank you very much.
04:02Babe, not every guy is my goal.
04:04Besides...
04:06He...
04:07is a top dick.
04:09Right.
04:10A dick you'd like to find.
04:12Oh!
04:13Okay.
04:14Uh...
04:15Duty calls.
04:16Thanks again for getting me the job, babe.
04:18Hello?
04:19Anyone in here?
04:28Here are your transcripts.
04:29Don't worry.
04:30They only took me 12 hours to finish.
04:32Are you drunk?
04:33I'm celebrating.
04:34Didn't you hear?
04:35I had a huge fucking one today.
04:37I went...
04:39I should have made a new partner.
04:50I'm celebrating.
04:53I got you here.
04:55I had a huge fucking one today.
04:59I went and I should have made a new partner.
05:04You kept me there till 10 p.m., color-coding deposition,
05:08so you could go home and guzzle whiskey?
05:12You are an asshole.
05:15You know that?
05:16What did I tell you about that now?
05:21Oh?
05:22And I am not an asshole.
05:28Fuck me.
05:39Actually, here's what's going to happen.
05:42Oh, bathroom.
05:44Bed.
05:47I'm Annabelle's chick.
05:49For me being the best assistant you'll ever have.
05:52Oh, suck it up, tough guy.
05:58So, you think I'm tough?
06:02Very impressive, sir.
06:04Good night.
06:04Wait.
06:08I'm sorry.
06:10I had a bad day.
06:12You can quit if you want.
06:16But first, can you...
06:17Sorry.
06:29You can quit.
06:35Butter?
06:37Aren't you better?
06:39That's so funny.
06:44You're not so by the way you're drunk.
06:49And a nice, actually.
06:52Yeah?
07:02You like it when I'm nice?
07:06Yeah.
07:08Maybe I do.
07:13Nice like this?
07:14Could be nice, sir.
07:27Nice like this.
07:38You that nice to your girlfriend?
07:40Girlfriend?
07:40Iced Americano, chop chop.
07:42Melinda?
07:43Melinda?
07:45Not my girlfriend.
07:47Let me guess.
07:49You're one of the guys that's married to the job.
07:53That's all I got.
07:55That's all I remember.
07:56I think that deep down, you're a good guy.
08:08No, I could stand to hear some more please and thank yous around the office.
08:12Please?
08:14Please.
08:17Please.
08:34Please.
08:35Please.
08:35Please.
08:35God, you're fucking gorgeous
08:46You're drunk
08:50Well, I'm not drunk
08:51Stay
08:55Please
09:05We can't do this
09:09You are my boss
09:12Papa
09:13I'll see you at the office, sir
09:17Fuck, man
09:21Need something?
09:37Yes
09:38Apple?
09:41No
09:42I need to talk to him
09:49About last night
09:51Mr. Sandpepper, was I expecting you?
10:04Miss Troy, if you could excuse us, please
10:06Had to sneak away from the party planning
10:14Retiring is harder than working, it seems
10:17That Anderson case
10:20Excellent work
10:21Thank you, sir
10:22You know, Bryce
10:24You've always made me proud
10:26I know you're expecting a certain promotion
10:29Upon my departure
10:30But this law firm
10:35Was handed down to me by my father
10:38It's got to stay in the family
10:41Now, thankfully
10:43I have a mutually beneficial solution to our problem
10:46Is this a...
10:51Marriage contract
10:52Marry my daughter
10:55And you'll be Sandpepper and Son's newest CEO
10:58Excuse me, sir
11:04I know it's unorthodox
11:06I know it's unorthodox
11:06But Melinda is on board
11:08Is she?
11:11Bryce
11:11I want to know that my daughter's taken care of
11:15And you've always said you wanted to be part of this family
11:18This is your chance
11:21It's a win-win
11:23That bad, huh?
11:51What did he say?
12:02Nothing
12:03Nothing important
12:05Okay
12:08What did he want to talk to me about?
12:12I need this mess cleaned up
12:20And a cup of coffee
12:22Black
12:23Now
12:26So that's it, then?
12:34That's how it's going to be?
12:36I'm my boss
12:36You're my secretary
12:38Administrative assistant
12:39No more Mr. Nice Guy
12:44I guess
12:45Moving forward
12:48We need to keep things professional
12:49That's joy
12:50Last night was a mistake
12:53Won't happen again
12:55You got that, right?
13:00Cheers
13:19Cheers
13:19Does tequila always taste that bad?
13:27Always
13:28We're programmed to forget
13:29It's like the pain of childbirth
13:31So it's got you drinking like a fish at the office happy hour?
13:36Is it a lover squirrel with a boss?
13:39Ugh
13:39You slut!
13:46You fucked him, didn't you?
13:48No
13:49No, I didn't
13:50Tell me everything
13:51Okay
13:52Is he bossy in bed?
13:54Does he make you call him sir?
13:56He didn't fuck
13:57Okay
14:02We may have almost kissed
14:07I know
14:09You owe me
14:12Like I got you a man and a job
14:14In the same week?
14:16Ugh
14:16Trust me
14:18He is not
14:19Well, not yet
14:21Why don't you go get him, Tiger?
14:23One second, he's begging me to kiss him
14:25And the next, he's barking at me for a cup of coffee
14:28No
14:30No more assholes
14:32I'm focusing on myself
14:34And the second I pay off my law school loans
14:38O'Connell gives my ass goodbye
14:42Sounds hot
14:44Oh, thank you
14:46And, uh, speaking of
14:50So is that guy over there
14:52If he will excuse me
14:54Jesus, his arms are as big as you are
14:57It's not arms big
14:59Alyssa
15:01Poppy?
15:17Michael
15:17How long has it been?
15:22Not long enough
15:23You look good
15:25Sexy
15:26And you look bad
15:30Desperate
15:32Oh, come on
15:34Don't be like that
15:35I just want to talk
15:36Oh, yeah?
15:38And how would Amber feel about that?
15:43Hey
15:43I don't like the way we ended
15:45And I don't like the way we started
15:47You forgot to mention
15:50That you were married when we met
15:52Well, let me go
15:54I can explain all of that
15:56You heard her
15:56Let her go
15:58Who is this?
16:01My boss
16:02And this is not my concern
16:06My plea
16:08You are my concern
16:09And I don't like people harassing what's mine
16:13Look, I'm not going anywhere until she tells me to, alright?
16:17Go!
16:19Haven't you got someone waiting at home?
16:21I had things under control
16:34Right
16:35Looked like it
16:37What are you?
16:38Some sort of white knight?
16:39I don't need to be rescued for my ex
16:41That's your ex
16:43Are you jealous?
16:51Because that wouldn't be very
16:53Professional
16:55Of you
16:56Would it?
17:01Good night, Miss Troy
17:02Good night, sir
17:05What is it?
17:25Good morning to you, too
17:27I have something you might want to take a look at
17:31There's an issue with this case, I think
17:37The language doesn't match compliance regulations
17:40And so we could get fined big time
17:43Or worse, the project could get shut down
17:45This needs to be updated before court in the morning
17:51I already did it
17:53How do you know how to do that?
17:57You think I want to be an assistant my whole life?
17:59I went to law school
18:01I'm going to run my own firm one day
18:04Not just your pretty face
18:06Funny, I don't remember saying that
18:10No, I believe your exact words were
18:14Fucking gorgeous
18:17Anything else you need, sir?
18:25I need you
18:27To get back to work
18:34What?
18:37Are you expecting something else?
18:40Just that bonus check
18:41You have to earn it
18:43Intent to
18:45Is that wedding bells, I hear?
18:52Or just the sound of a bed creaking?
18:54I am doing my job
18:56Focus on me
18:58Remember?
18:59Mm-hmm
19:00Who are you trying to convince?
19:01You or me?
19:03Mm
19:03Oh, Miss Troy
19:06For your schedule
19:07We'll be working late tonight
19:09Do you have the
19:24Richardson case?
19:26To your right
19:27And the
19:31Tax documents
19:32And the same folder
19:33What?
19:40To minimize risk
19:41In bankruptcy
19:42You have to categorize
19:45The client's assets
19:46See here
19:47You have to separate
19:49What's business
19:50And
19:51What's
19:52Personal
19:56Yes, sir
19:59Good girl
20:02Is that your ex again?
20:14Yep
20:14You want to tell me
20:16What happened there?
20:16He is a liar
20:21And a cheater
20:23That breakup?
20:25If you'd ask his wife
20:27She'd say yes
20:29That was his
20:30Dirty little secret
20:32I ended it
20:36The day I found out
20:37I swore to myself
20:40That I would never be
20:43The other woman again
20:44It kind of fucked me up
20:47To be honest
20:48I stopped dating after that
20:50Sorry
20:53All I ever wanted
20:56Was for someone
20:58To choose me
20:59But it's better this way
21:04Being alone
21:06No feelings
21:09Means no getting hurt
21:10Well
21:12Yeah
21:13It's
21:13Right
21:14It's
21:14Definitely
21:17Easier
21:19Guess we're the same like that
21:21Married to the job
21:23Sorry
21:26I shouldn't be
21:27Diving all this on you
21:28You know
21:29You're a good boss
21:30It's not
21:31Professional
21:31Don't do that
21:33Don't apologize
21:36You're being nice again
21:41I'm not
21:43Could be nice about
21:53Right
21:56You should have to go
22:08It's um
22:09It's getting late
22:11Right
22:14Yeah
22:15I'll just
22:15Put this up
22:16What's this
22:19The project?
22:21Nothing
22:21Nothing for you to worry about
22:23Trust me
22:23Night
22:29Boss
22:31Honey I'm home
22:53Not funny
22:57Oh
22:58Spoilsport
22:59What are you doing here Melinda
23:00I have to leave for court soon
23:01Can't a girl wish
23:02Her fiance
23:03Good luck
23:04Hey listen
23:05So I was thinking that
23:07We could
23:08Make our announcement
23:09At daddy's retirement party
23:11Melinda
23:12I don't want to marry
23:13What
23:14You think you can just
23:15Take over my family's business
23:16For nothing
23:16I'm not signing the contract
23:18I've been meeting with your father
23:19Later today to tell him
23:20You saying no
23:22Is going to kill daddy
23:24What are you talking about?
23:26He's sick Bryce
23:26And he's not getting better
23:29Why do you think he's retiring?
23:32After everything he's done for you
23:41Taking you in when your parents died
23:44Encouraging you to be a lawyer
23:47And then giving you a job at his own firm
23:50And you can't do this one thing for him
23:53It's all he's ever wanted
23:56For you to
23:59Carry on his legacy
24:03And become his son
24:05Officially
24:07Do you even care about him at all?
24:12Of course I do
24:13God damn it Melinda
24:15Besides
24:17We do have fun together
24:20Remember the family trip in Santorini
24:22Staying up all night
24:24Drinking Uzu under the stars
24:26There is something here
24:29You can make everyone happy Brycey
24:32You'll have the business
24:34And
24:36We'll have each other
24:37I am
24:40Otherwise
24:42You may have to tell daddy
24:45You know to clean house
24:48Before he leaves
24:49Get rid of the traitors
24:51Are you seriously blackmailing me into marrying you?
24:55If the ring fits
24:56So
24:59What will it be sweetie?
25:01Bryce
25:02Seriously
25:02Our sweetie
25:04Did I miss the punctuality's optional memo?
25:09Let's go
25:10Excuse me
25:11Who the hell do you think you're talking to?
25:13Not you
25:14Oh
25:15Is this how you let the help behave?
25:17I thought you were better than that
25:19The help?
25:21I know
25:22Poppy
25:22Go to the car
25:24Is this little nobody gonna be a problem?
25:35No
25:36She better not
25:38Fucking hell
25:49Thought deliberation would be done yesterday
25:51It's island treatment
25:59That's professional
26:02Real mature
26:04You want to talk about being mature?
26:09How about this hot and cold bullshit
26:11You're pulling on me?
26:13I'm not just some toy that you can play with
26:15You keep flirting with me
26:18Then you side
26:20Like Miss Botox
26:22When she calls me to help
26:23What the hell do you want from me?
26:27I want
26:28Insist
26:29It doesn't drive me fucking crazy
26:31Then fire me
26:33Just like the others
26:35I can't
26:38Oh
26:39Why not?
26:42Because I can't let you go
26:43Even though I should
26:45Is what I want to do to you
26:49It could cost me a partner
26:51It cost me
26:53My entire
26:54Fucking
26:55Career
26:56What do you want to do to me?
27:02Let me show you
27:03Let me show you
27:03What the hell you used to do with us
27:28Since the moment I first saw you
27:30Is that all you wanted to do?
27:40What did we say?
27:46Please
27:46Sir
27:48Jesus Christ
28:08That good, huh?
28:12Don't get a big head
28:13Oh, I really
28:14Should put you in charge of my performance reviews
28:16So
28:20What?
28:24Are you gonna start being a dick to me again?
28:28I don't want to be
28:29Look, I like you, Poppy
28:40I like you a lot
28:43But, um
28:46This complicates things
28:50What?
28:58Fucking when we work
28:59Literally
29:01Maybe we should keep things under wraps
29:08Just for now
29:10I can do that
29:19No, no, I've got the numbers right here
29:40I don't want to be
29:42I can do that
29:46But it's okay
29:47Or
29:48Don't play
29:48Oh, will you?
29:49Do you
29:50What's going on
29:52Keith?
29:54Yes
29:55You
29:56You
29:56Are you?
29:58You
29:58Go
29:59All but
29:59There I am
30:00You
31:01How dare you hide an office romance from your best friend?
31:05It's a secret, okay?
31:08Not like how it was with Michael.
31:10This is different.
31:13Bryce is different.
31:14He's...
31:15I trust him.
31:20Look at you.
31:21You're glowing.
31:23I haven't seen you like this since...
31:26Maybe ever.
31:28I'm happy for you, babe.
31:30You deserve it.
31:31Is he in?
31:36Hi, ladies.
31:39Goodness.
31:40Isn't it gorgeous?
31:42Yeah.
31:43A family heirloom.
31:44But Bryce and I are not making the announcement until Daddy's retirement party next week.
31:49So, keep it a secret, okay?
31:50I just can't wait to put a ring on his finger.
31:55You know, let the world know that he's taken.
32:00Poppy, I need to see you again.
32:01Oh, baby, don't be mad.
32:09Everybody will know soon enough.
32:11I just wanted to let you know that we have a meeting with the wedding planner on Tuesday.
32:16Oh, you know what?
32:17Be a dear and put that in his schedule, will you?
32:20Poppy, this isn't...
32:21It's not what it looks like.
32:23Mr. Sandpepper gave me a...
32:24Everything he's ever wanted.
32:27In a family.
32:29In a partnership.
32:31But we can't go around blabbing about it now, can we?
32:34We don't want it all to go away.
32:38Must go.
32:40Honeymoon shopping.
32:42Bye, baby.
32:46Just gonna...
32:47Yeah.
32:51I'm sorry, it's...
32:53Complicated.
32:55Guys always say that.
32:58And you know what?
32:59It never is.
33:02You lied to me.
33:05You made me your dirty little secret.
33:09Fuck you, Bryce.
33:11You have to trust me.
33:14I care about you more than...
33:16Right.
33:18As a piece on the side.
33:19Well, I told you.
33:21I'm done with that.
33:24And I'm done with this.
33:28Like what?
33:38Okay, so the office we saw earlier was gorgeous.
33:42I mean, a low open concept and...
33:45Ugh.
33:46The windows.
33:47Please tell me you'll poach me to be your assistant when you open up your own car.
33:50If you want to work for no money, benefits, or prestige...
33:54Totally.
33:55I was right the first time.
34:06Men can't be trusted.
34:12Speaking of, I have a favorite to ask.
34:21I left some of my shit at his office and I was wandering.
34:24Well, he's actually at the retirement party.
34:29So, maybe you could go yourself.
34:32Maybe swipe a few clients from the Rolodex while you're at it.
34:36I like the way you think.
34:37Hey, are you always kidding?
34:49I swear I've got a planner right here.
34:51What is that?
35:01A marriage contract?
35:07Is Melinda forcing him to marry her?
35:09Will you clean up my eyes?
35:27Oh, what now?
35:29I thought we had a deal.
35:30We do.
35:31Good.
35:35I'll marry you.
35:37But I'll never love you.
35:39Is this about me getting rid of your little plaything?
35:42What was her name?
35:43Popper?
35:44Pepper?
35:45Her name's Poppy.
35:47Baby, I did you a favor.
35:49You were embarrassing yourself.
35:51Slumming it with your secretary.
35:52Don't you dare.
35:53Speak about her like that.
35:56For God's sakes, you're acting like you're in love with her or something.
36:00Oh, don't.
36:01Ah, there they are.
36:03The beautiful couple.
36:04Hey, Daddy.
36:06Mr. Sam Pepper, are you okay?
36:07Oh, Bryce, please.
36:09You're about to marry my daughter.
36:11Don't you think it's time you called me Dad?
36:17Do you excuse me?
36:18I think someone didn't get the hit.
36:21I can wait with you.
36:22It's fine.
36:23You're working this event.
36:26I'll wait till the intro's over.
36:28And then I'll tap to it.
36:30Okay.
36:31I got this.
36:32You come with me.
36:43You have a lot of nerves showing up here.
36:46We both know you're not good enough for him.
36:49You're just a little office slut with split ends.
36:52And you're just a spoiled brat
36:54whose daddy has to buy her a husband.
36:58I know about the contract.
37:02You're pathetic.
37:04And you're a homewrecker.
37:06I'm prepared to give him everything he wants.
37:09What do you have to offer, huh?
37:13You're just the woman he screws.
37:15I'm the one he's going to marry.
37:26Everyone.
37:27Everyone, can I have your attention, please?
37:31When I was a young man,
37:33I thought I would sooner die in court than retire.
37:38But that was before I knew
37:39that I would be handing the keys to the castle
37:42over to my future son-in-law.
37:43Now, I am honored to announce
37:45Bryce O'Connell
37:46will be the new head of Sandpepper and Sons.
37:52I always wanted Bryce to be the one to take over.
37:55I didn't know what I would do
37:57if I had to retire before Mellie married a lawyer.
38:00But not just a lawyer.
38:01I wanted my daughter to find a good man.
38:03Someone to make her laugh.
38:06Support her dreams.
38:08And build a family.
38:10Well, Bryce, anything to add?
38:13I lost my parents when I was 16.
38:29The Sandpeppers took me in
38:31and gave me a second chance at a family.
38:34Mr. and Mrs. Sandpepper, I saw true love.
38:43I never thought anyone could love me like that.
38:50I never thought I could love anyone like that.
38:52But I just wanted this job.
38:59This, um, family.
39:03And then...
39:06What in the fuck do you think you're doing?
39:12I can't do this.
39:16I can't marry you.
39:19Bryce, you're seriously going to choose that nobody over me?
39:23This is insane.
39:24She's a secretary.
39:26I am a Sandpepper.
39:27You had to hold my career hostage
39:28to get me to consider marrying you.
39:30I'd rather be out of my ass than be your husband.
39:37Mr. Sandpepper,
39:38all I ever wanted was for you to be proud of me.
39:42But I gotta be proud of me, too.
39:49Daddy, do something.
39:51Well, what more do you want me to do, Melinda?
39:53I've already offered the man, the entire company, to marry you.
40:13Poppy.
40:18Bryce.
40:21What are you?
40:22I was the friend.
40:23But...
40:28Why?
40:31Because being married to the job isn't working for me anymore.
40:37Because...
40:38You're the smartest.
40:42Sexiest.
40:45Most infuriating woman I have ever met.
40:49Because I am.
40:50I love you.
40:55I love you.
40:58What about being a partner?
41:01Sandpeppers?
41:02Your family?
41:03Everything you've ever wanted.
41:05Not everything.
41:06I don't want you to give up anything for me.
41:08What if I'm not enough?
41:13I'm not enough.
41:15No more than enough.
41:19And if this moment's all I get,
41:22even if you tell me to get lost,
41:24I'll never regret walking away from you.
41:28Why didn't you tell me about the contract?
41:32Why didn't you tell me about the contract?
41:35Because I was scared.
41:39Scared of losing everything I thought I wanted.
41:41Then I lost you.
41:46And I was terrified.
41:53I am so sorry if I ever made you feel less than.
41:56Because you're more than I've ever dreamed of.
42:07Good speech.
42:10I can see why you're decent, Cor.
42:13Decent?
42:14I'm fantastic.
42:15Well, you're unemployed, so.
42:23I'm out.
42:36Papa, you once told me all you ever wanted was to let me choose you.
42:41Where are you?
42:44Choosing you.
42:45If you want me.
42:54Ocean granite.
42:55Ocean granite.
43:15I love you too, by the way.
43:29I love you too, by the way.
43:43God, I miss you.
43:59I miss that.
44:03How are you so good at that?
44:04I'm highly motivated.
44:06I don't want to disappoint you.
44:12I don't want to ruin you.
44:13I don't want to hurt you.
44:13I don't want to hurt you.
44:17As long as you don't go back to bossing me around.
44:19No problem there
44:23Somehow I doubt either of us
44:26Will come back at San Peppercents
44:28I gotta find a new friend
44:33Ideally one that lets me put my name on the door
44:38I've got an idea
44:43I could
44:48He's an assistant
