00:02:00so
00:02:07so
00:02:11Dad!
00:02:35Hey, buddy.
00:02:37What have you been up to today?
00:02:40Tell me everything.
00:02:41All right, buddy.
00:02:45Time for bed.
00:02:47There we go.
00:02:53Daddy, is this my mom?
00:02:56I'll be taking that now, buddy.
00:03:03Take this design, for example.
00:03:05The stone is way too big.
00:03:07It overwhelms the band, and the setting is wrong.
00:03:11It'll just snag on everything.
00:03:12My designs are perfectly fine.
00:03:15Fine isn't what couples remember on their wedding day.
00:03:18What you need to do is lower the profile, taper the band, and then add some micro-pave to balance the center.
00:03:28Then you have a design that's elegant and practical.
00:03:34Dean, are you going to let her just do this?
00:03:36She's right.
00:03:37The proportions were off.
00:03:40The setting would have caused many problems.
00:03:42Sylvia, I'm putting you in charge of our next major client presentation.
00:03:46Who's the client?
00:03:47Who's the client?
00:03:48The Morrison Gem Exhibition.
00:03:51They specifically requested for innovative design.
00:03:54But, Dean, that's supposed to be your project.
00:03:57Christine, we need fresh ideas.
00:04:01Presentation's next week.
00:04:04You think you can handle it?
00:04:05I don't think.
00:04:09I know.
00:04:16At Sterling Designs, we care about catering to the bride's every need and making sure that she feels beautiful and special on her big day.
00:04:22Exactly.
00:04:22A wedding is the bride's most important day, and no one wants it ruined.
00:04:28Yeah.
00:04:29Right, so let's talk about the design.
00:04:33I'm thinking something unique.
00:04:35Maybe both of our names engraved on the rings?
00:04:38Okay, we can do that, for sure.
00:04:41What is your fiancé's name?
00:04:42Dean.
00:04:44Dean Martinez.
00:04:49You're engaged to Dean?
00:04:50Mm-hmm.
00:04:51I didn't know that.
00:04:53Yeah, I know he's the boss here, but maybe we can keep this between me and you?
00:04:57We don't want things to get too over the top.
00:05:01When is the wedding?
00:05:02Next month.
00:05:03And we are both so looking forward to it.
00:05:07So that's why he left me.
00:05:08For another woman.
00:05:10Dean is engaged.
00:05:12That's his secret.
00:05:13I was fooled by him all this time.
00:05:15He's going to get married.
00:05:17How can he say he loves me?
00:05:19How can he be such a liar?
00:05:20Oh, oh.
00:05:21I'm so sorry.
00:05:22Are you okay?
00:05:24Um, what's your name?
00:05:26I'm Michael.
00:05:27Michael?
00:05:28Who are you here with?
00:05:29Where, um, where are your parents?
00:05:32Michael.
00:05:33Thank God you're here.
00:05:34Dad.
00:05:37Dad?
00:05:40When, when did you have a child?
00:05:44Is Michael you and Pauline's?
00:05:47How did you find out of Avalanche?
00:05:49Just answer the question.
00:05:50Look, it's very complicated, Sylvia.
00:05:52You never told me that you had a kid.
00:05:55You lied to me.
00:05:58Sylvia, please don't go.
00:05:59Mom.
00:06:08Sylvia.
00:06:09Today's the Morrison presentation.
00:06:13I, um, just wanted to let you know that you got this.
00:06:19Now, if you'll excuse me.
00:06:23You don't have to shut me out, you know?
00:06:25That's exactly what I have to do.
00:06:37Dave.
00:06:38How dare she treat you like that?
00:06:40You clean up well.
00:06:52Almost like you belong here.
00:06:54Still bitter I got the project, Christine?
00:06:56Bitter?
00:06:57No.
00:06:59But you should watch your attitude towards Dean.
00:07:01That's between me and him.
00:07:05Oops.
00:07:07Let me get that for you.
00:07:15Hmm.
00:07:20If you're done here, I've got work that speaks for itself.
00:07:23Oops.
00:07:26Oh, I'm counting on it.
00:07:41Good morning.
00:07:42My name is Sylvia Wilkins, and today I will be going over the design for the Morrison wedding.
00:07:47This is Carrie Post.
00:08:06Sylvia.
00:08:06Actually, um, Sylvia and I have a little surprise for everyone.
00:08:18Before we begin, um, we'll be doing a little detour, and we'll be right back.
00:08:24You guys are gonna love it.
00:08:25It's just what it is.
00:08:26Hey.
00:08:40Hey.
00:08:41Hey.
00:08:42Don't worry.
00:08:44We'll find them.
00:08:45Okay?
00:08:46Just tell me where you're gonna last save the files.
00:08:49In the computer.
00:09:04See, there's nothing there.
00:09:05It's like the files just vanished.
00:09:07And somebody deleted them.
00:09:11We need time to find out home.
00:09:23Maybe it's time that we go back to the beginning.
00:09:26What do you mean?
00:09:37We are so sorry for the delay.
00:09:39We had a bit of a setback.
00:09:41But I'm pretty sure you're gonna like this.
00:09:44I'm gonna take you all back to where it all began.
00:09:59That's our wedding ring.
00:10:01I designed this ring three years ago.
00:10:04They were meant for all the expectations and happiness before the wedding.
00:10:14I designed it with the intention of representing simplicity and love.
00:10:27To represent a love that wasn't perfect, but it was simple and sincere.
00:10:33It's easier.
00:11:03Cause it's like I dreamed you were.
00:11:08Thank you, Sylvia.
00:11:31Sylvia.
00:11:33Sylvia.
00:11:38Sylvia.
00:11:55Sylvia.
00:11:56Please, we need to talk.
00:11:57No.
00:11:58I didn't mean to bring up the past, okay?
00:12:00I just...
00:12:01That sketch was the only one that I had.
00:12:04I know.
00:12:04Just open the door.
00:12:06Will you just leave me alone?
00:12:30I thought you were gone.
00:12:31I'm not going anywhere.
00:12:34I'm sorry, Sylvia.
00:12:36For leaving you at the altar.
00:12:37For everything I did.
00:12:39I...
00:12:39I never meant to hurt you.
00:12:42It's too late for your apologies.
00:12:45I don't want you close to me.
00:12:47I don't even want to see you.
00:12:48Sylvia, if I'll let you go now, I'll go crazy.
00:12:51You can be mad at me, scream at me, but please don't just shut me out.
00:12:54You think that saying all of this makes everything better?
00:12:58That it just erases what you did?
00:13:00No, no.
00:13:01Nothing can erase it.
00:13:03But I'm still here.
00:13:04I'm still in love with you, Sylvia.
00:13:06I never stopped.
00:13:08You have any idea how I suffered all these years?
00:13:12How I miss you?
00:13:13Sylvia, I shouldn't feel this way.
00:13:16Sylvia, I shouldn't feel this way.
00:13:22Carry the weight of the world on your shoulders
00:13:29But don't let it make you older
00:13:33They say
00:13:35I don't want to see your face.
00:13:50I don't want to see your face.
00:13:52All my goals know the strength
00:13:58I'll be brave in trying to wait
00:14:02Fuck
00:14:20What's wrong with me?
00:14:22I'm supposed to rise above Dean
00:14:24Or at least punch him out
00:14:25Not this
00:14:26Morning, Sylvia
00:14:29This night was great, wasn't it?
00:14:36Um
00:14:36Dean
00:14:38Let's, um
00:14:39Let's not talk about this again
00:14:43Or bring it up to anyone
00:14:44What do you mean?
00:14:45I mean
00:14:46We can't go back to how things were
00:14:47Okay
00:14:48We have to forget about
00:14:50Whatever just happened between us, okay?
00:14:54Do you understand me?
00:14:56Sure
00:14:57Okay
00:14:57You have to go
00:14:59Don't worry, Sylvia
00:15:13Dean told me everything
00:15:15We'll find out who stole your project
00:15:16Oh, I know who did it
00:15:18Who?
00:15:19I can prove it
00:15:20Christine
00:15:27Will you hand over my design for the Morrison wedding, please?
00:15:32Are you crazy?
00:15:33I didn't steal anything
00:15:35You and I were the last people that had contact before I went on to present
00:15:38I think you know exactly what happened
00:15:41I don't know what you're talking about
00:15:43Maybe you weren't careful enough with your memory stick
00:15:47That's
00:15:50That's funny
00:15:51I never mentioned that I had my design saved on a memory stick
00:15:54Usually designers will hand draw them or save them to a digital file
00:15:58How did you know that mine was on a stick?
00:16:01Is that true?
00:16:02I've been on this team longer than anyone
00:16:07And Sylvia's hated me from the start
00:16:11She wants to frame me because she thinks she's above everyone else
00:16:17She wasn't even respecting Dean
00:16:19Like, she thinks she's above everyone else
00:16:23I don't think I'm above anyone
00:16:25And I don't just throw out accusations freely
00:16:28Not without good reason
00:16:29You already exposed yourself, Christine
00:16:33Why are you doing this to me?
00:16:40I trust Christine more
00:16:41To be honest, she's always been nice
00:16:43She must be lying
00:16:45Look at her
00:16:46Enough
00:16:47Dean, come on, you know
00:16:52Drop the act, Christine
00:16:55Catching you off guard isn't proof of guilt
00:17:03But look at your recent submissions
00:17:05They're near duplicates of Sylvia's early work
00:17:09Clear plagiarism
00:17:11Check her desk
00:17:13And no, wait, you can't
00:17:16Now, what else?
00:17:30I, I didn't mean to steal
00:17:33She wasn't respecting him
00:17:35I, I did it for you, Dean
00:17:39Everything that I did was for you
00:17:41Christine
00:17:42You're fired
00:17:44You just used my name
00:17:47To justify betrayal
00:17:49And with a plagiarism and
00:17:51Theft record
00:17:52No reputable jeweler
00:17:54Has will hire you again
00:17:55Security
00:17:57Get her out of here
00:17:58Hey
00:18:12Thanks
00:18:14I didn't expect you to be so decisive
00:18:17I kind of expected you to go easy on Christine
00:18:20Kindness only enables people like her
00:18:23She almost destroyed your career
00:18:25That's my red line
00:18:27Well
00:18:28Thanks again
00:18:31Are you really not gonna talk to me still?
00:18:34Dean
00:18:35I think it's better this way for both of us
00:18:37If we just keep it about work between us
00:18:39Then
00:18:42What if it is about work?
00:18:46What?
00:18:47Well, you got your USB back
00:18:48I wanted to review the design together
00:18:51Are you being serious right now?
00:18:52I'm serious
00:18:53It's excellent, but
00:18:55It's not good enough
00:18:57Not for you
00:18:58Technically, it's perfect
00:19:04But that's the problem
00:19:07It's cold
00:19:10It's delicate
00:19:11Precise
00:19:12But there's no joy in it
00:19:15No romance
00:19:18It's a ring
00:19:20It's not a poem
00:19:20No
00:19:21It's a promise
00:19:22People come to us for love
00:19:25Not just a product
00:19:26They want to feel
00:19:28Something real
00:19:30Promise?
00:19:32Do you think that I believe in that?
00:19:34I'm sorry if I lost my passion
00:19:37Who do I have to thank for that, Dean?
00:19:43You can still
00:19:44Feel that passion again
00:19:46You know what?
00:19:47You're right
00:19:47Yeah, maybe
00:19:49Maybe I should go on a date
00:19:50A date?
00:19:52You said I need more passion
00:19:53Hello
00:20:05Sylvia Wilkins
00:20:06Myra, nice to meet you
00:20:07Nice to meet you as well
00:20:08Enjoy the exhibit
00:20:09Thank you
00:20:10Hey, are you Sylvia Wilkins?
00:20:26Your designs are incredible
00:20:28Thank you
00:20:29My name is Jacob
00:20:30I'm a graduate student
00:20:31In forensic genetics
00:20:32Nice to meet you
00:20:33I didn't realize that
00:20:35Students studying forensic genetics
00:20:37Were interested in
00:20:38Gems
00:20:40Yeah, you get the point
00:20:41I have no idea about any of them
00:20:43Except that they're all expensive
00:20:44So would you mind telling me
00:20:47A little bit about them?
00:20:50Who the hell is that guy?
00:20:52Absolutely
00:20:52All of our gems
00:20:56We actually do mine
00:20:57We don't believe in lab
00:20:59Growing our gems here
00:21:00So
00:21:00My thesis is on French genetics
00:21:04Basically solving mysteries through DNA
00:21:06Which sounds serious
00:21:07But I'm the type that can turn
00:21:09The darkest crime scenes
00:21:10Into stories to make my friends laugh
00:21:11That's impressive
00:21:13Well, what about you?
00:21:15How do you usually work?
00:21:16Are you designers surrounded
00:21:17By these beautiful stones all the time?
00:21:20Oh, um
00:21:21Well, I work in silence
00:21:24I design sketches
00:21:27That try and capture love
00:21:29In cold stones and metals
00:21:31So it's really
00:21:32Not that exciting of a job
00:21:34Well, there's a kind of magic
00:21:36In that too
00:21:37Transforming feelings
00:21:38Into something tangible
00:21:40It's like you're telling a story
00:21:41Without words
00:21:42Maybe
00:21:43Or it's just a business
00:21:45I don't buy that
00:21:46You have to believe
00:21:47In what you're creating
00:21:48Otherwise, it's just jewelry
00:21:49Besides
00:21:50That smile tells me
00:21:52You still believe
00:21:53So
00:21:56Are you single?
00:22:01So
00:22:02Are you single?
00:22:04Hi
00:22:06You seem to have a lot of questions
00:22:08And I happen to be
00:22:09One of the organizers
00:22:10Of this event
00:22:11So
00:22:11If you have any questions
00:22:12Just
00:22:13Ask me
00:22:14You seem like you need a rest
00:22:16No
00:22:16Working with him
00:22:17I'm fine
00:22:18See your boyfriend?
00:22:19No
00:22:20Yes
00:22:20He's not
00:22:21I was
00:22:22He's my ex
00:22:23Uh, dinner plans later?
00:22:25We actually have a lot of meetings
00:22:27That we can't miss
00:22:29Sounds like your ex
00:22:30Is using his power at work
00:22:31To interfere with your personal life
00:22:33Isn't it getting a little late?
00:22:36Should probably go home
00:22:37Since
00:22:37It's a school night
00:22:38Because students have a little bit more energy
00:22:41Unlike some washed up corporate has been
00:22:43So
00:22:45Any chance I could get your number?
00:22:49Really?
00:22:50That's your move?
00:22:51You got a better one?
00:22:52Oh wait
00:22:53You had yours
00:22:55You blew it
00:22:56You know nothing
00:22:58About her
00:22:59Not yet
00:23:01After dinner's four
00:23:02Guys
00:23:03Are we really doing this right now?
00:23:05Or what?
00:23:05Are we in kindergarten?
00:23:11Jacob
00:23:11Thanks
00:23:17Call me
00:23:18Don't worry
00:23:20I'll treat her better than her ex
00:23:22Sylvia
00:23:34Sylvia, wait
00:23:34Look
00:23:36I know I shouldn't have jumped him
00:23:38I look
00:23:39Pathetic
00:23:40But
00:23:41Seeing you smile at him
00:23:43I just couldn't stand it
00:23:44Okay?
00:23:45You couldn't stand it?
00:23:49You couldn't stand that?
00:23:51But you could leave me standing alone
00:23:52In front of a hundred guests
00:23:53If you care so much now, Dean
00:23:55Why didn't you show up on our wedding day?
00:24:01I'm not that weak girl you left behind now
00:24:03So just tell me the reason
00:24:05Were you afraid of marriage
00:24:06Or did you just not love me enough?
00:24:08No, I wasn't afraid
00:24:09I
00:24:09Then why?
00:24:10Look, I had my reasons
00:24:11I was falling apart
00:24:13I just
00:24:14I can't explain it to you
00:24:15Still
00:24:16After all these years
00:24:18You say that you were falling apart
00:24:20But that can't be the full story
00:24:22So just give me the reason
00:24:25You know
00:24:26I used to dream
00:24:27Every night
00:24:28That you would come back
00:24:30Whisper that you were sorry
00:24:32That you still love me
00:24:33But now I'll stop waiting
00:24:41I don't want your guilt
00:24:43Or your memories
00:24:44I just want the truth
00:24:45So either you tell me
00:24:46Or I'm gone
00:24:47Sylvia
00:24:54There's only one truth
00:25:01I never stop loving you
00:25:03Do you think that I would believe that?
00:25:06You're a liar, Dean
00:25:07Please
00:25:08Don't go
00:25:10I'll tell you everything
00:25:11It's because
00:25:16I wasn't worthy of you
00:25:18I don't understand
00:25:19We both
00:25:22Came from the same place
00:25:23We both graduated
00:25:25From design schools
00:25:26We
00:25:26We had the same dream
00:25:27We even met
00:25:29At a design competition
00:25:30Yes
00:25:31And you
00:25:32Defeated me
00:25:33You stood there
00:25:34With your design
00:25:35So
00:25:36Bold
00:25:37So
00:25:37Impossible
00:25:39Everyone called it
00:25:40Reckless
00:25:41They also said that it was too risky
00:25:43You were the only person
00:25:45That stood in front of all of them
00:25:46And defended me
00:25:47You were the bravest person in the room
00:25:48You always have been
00:25:53It was never
00:25:53About our dreams
00:25:56Or your brilliance
00:25:58The problem was
00:25:59I made a huge mistake
00:26:03And while you were rising
00:26:05Brilliant
00:26:06Unstoppable
00:26:07I was falling apart
00:26:09And I thought you'd be much better off
00:26:11Without me
00:26:13I never thought that for a second
00:26:15But if you keep running
00:26:17I'm not gonna keep waiting for you
00:26:19Someone else is gonna come into my life
00:26:21And I'm gonna let them
00:26:22I'm gonna date them
00:26:23Maybe sleep with them
00:26:25Who knows
00:26:26Maybe I'll even marry them
00:26:27Don't say that
00:26:34Don't talk about being with another man
00:26:38You left
00:26:39You made room in your life for someone else
00:26:42Just
00:26:42Just hearing it
00:26:44It tears me apart
00:26:46I know
00:26:49I may be selfish
00:26:51But I can't stand
00:26:52The thought of you
00:26:53Being with someone else
00:26:54I can't breathe
00:26:55When I picture it
00:26:58I know
00:26:59He's still hiding something
00:27:00But when he kisses me
00:27:02I just forget to care
00:27:05Oh my God
00:27:22I don't know
00:28:06Hey, if it's urgent, I can wait.
00:28:14I know.
00:28:21I'm sorry, Celia. I...
00:28:23Dean.
00:28:23I have to go.
00:28:24What's going on?
00:28:28If you walk out now,
00:28:31don't come back.
00:28:36I owe you the truth.
00:28:45Pauline and I dated seven years ago.
00:28:50It was short-lived, and we broke up way before you and I met.
00:28:55And after a few years, when we were supposed to get married,
00:29:01she came back.
00:29:04She said she had a three-year-old son,
00:29:09and that I was the father.
00:29:12I was shocked, and I didn't believe her
00:29:15until she showed me the eternity test.
00:29:23Look, I'm about to marry somebody I truly love.
00:29:26I'll support Michael in every way I can,
00:29:29but I...
00:29:29I won't marry you.
00:29:32You think this is about money, Dean?
00:29:34Your son has early signs of autism.
00:29:37What?
00:29:38Yeah.
00:29:40He eats by himself.
00:29:42He talks to himself.
00:29:43He's a total freak.
00:29:45You want to know why, Dean?
00:29:46Because he's never had a father.
00:29:49So don't expect to have a family with anyone else.
00:29:54You're stuck with me.
00:29:55I later realized that Michael's autism
00:30:01was purely because of Pauline's neglect.
00:30:04After three years with me, he talks,
00:30:07he plays, he laughs.
00:30:09Oh, my God.
00:30:10I'm telling the truth, Sylvia.
00:30:13Really.
00:30:14I just don't know what to believe anymore.
00:30:20The one thing you can believe
00:30:22is that I didn't leave our wedding
00:30:24because I didn't love you.
00:30:25I left
00:30:26because I thought I had to take responsibility.
00:30:30So then,
00:30:31what about Pauline?
00:30:33What happened?
00:30:34She just dropped Michael off and vanished.
00:30:37Didn't hear from her until recently.
00:30:39What kind of mother does that?
00:30:41Exactly.
00:30:43I've raised him alone.
00:30:45And those years were so joyful
00:30:48because of Michael.
00:30:49But also...
00:30:50But what?
00:30:53Extremely unbearable.
00:30:54Because I thought I lost you forever.
00:30:57And then you showed up at Sterling.
00:31:00It felt like a second chance.
00:31:04But it's too late now, isn't it?
00:31:08Because you're going to marry Pauline anyway.
00:31:10I know I don't deserve your forgiveness,
00:31:14but I had to take care of Michael.
00:31:18I had to be a father.
00:31:19So,
00:31:20you're going to marry Pauline
00:31:23and live a lie
00:31:25just to be under the illusion
00:31:27of having a perfect life?
00:31:28I know I sound pathetic,
00:31:31but I thought I lost you.
00:31:33And then you came back
00:31:35and I started dreaming again.
00:31:38You don't get to dream with me.
00:31:40I spent years
00:31:41burying that day,
00:31:44trying to forget about
00:31:45the ring,
00:31:47the flowers,
00:31:48the empty aisle.
00:31:49Sylvia.
00:31:50Just tell Michael the truth one day.
00:31:51Goodbye, Dean.
00:32:20You're home.
00:32:21I missed you.
00:32:23Where's Michael?
00:32:27Oh, I was thinking about
00:32:29hiring a nanny for Michael
00:32:31since we're doing so well financially.
00:32:33Why not?
00:32:34Someone to watch Michael
00:32:35while we spend more time together.
00:32:37You came back
00:32:38and instead of building something with him,
00:32:40you got a nanny to do your job?
00:32:43Dean, I just want to spend more time with you.
00:32:45If you want to spend time with anyone,
00:32:47just spend it with Michael.
00:32:51You're such a fool, Dean.
00:32:53Michael isn't even your son.
00:32:55You've been raising a child
00:32:57that isn't yours all these years.
00:33:00But you've got more than I ever imagined.
00:33:02That's why letting you go
00:33:03isn't an option.
00:33:06Dean,
00:33:07just stop working.
00:33:09I can give you a massage.
00:33:11No, no, thanks.
00:33:16I saw your designer today.
00:33:19What's her name?
00:33:20Sylvia Wilkins.
00:33:21What?
00:33:25What were you doing at Sterling?
00:33:27I was designing our wedding rings, of course.
00:33:30I asked Wilkins to handle it.
00:33:31Are you out of your mind?
00:33:33I'll handle the design, okay?
00:33:35You leave Sylvia out of this.
00:33:37It's because of her, isn't it?
00:33:40Don't worry.
00:33:41She seems nice enough.
00:33:43I'll befriend her.
00:33:44My dress has to match my ring perfectly.
00:33:57You're coming with me to pick it out.
00:33:59I have work to do.
00:34:00I can't just drop everything.
00:34:02Refuse,
00:34:03and I'll file a formal complaint with HR.
00:34:06Unprofessional conduct.
00:34:07Conflict of interest being Dean's ex.
00:34:10You'll lose the lead on this project.
00:34:12Fine.
00:34:14I'll go with you.
00:34:16Just wait, Dean.
00:34:17She'll never stand between us.
00:34:28You know,
00:34:30Dean told me everything that happened between you two.
00:34:33I felt so sorry that he left you to be with me.
00:34:36Wait, Dean told you that?
00:34:37Of course.
00:34:39He told me everything.
00:34:40I wouldn't worry about it too much, though.
00:34:43He said he never forgot about me.
00:34:45Even when he was with you.
00:34:46Miss Miller,
00:34:47I don't need to know the details of your entire love story to design your dream.
00:34:51Really?
00:34:52Isn't that what designers do?
00:34:57Funny how some things never change.
00:35:00You're still just the help.
00:35:02Don't worry, darling.
00:35:04Soon you won't even be in the picture.
00:35:05No, no, Sylvia.
00:35:18Honestly, are you even trying?
00:35:20This looks like something off a discount catalog.
00:35:22All of our designs are original.
00:35:24You just asked for options?
00:35:25Options, yes.
00:35:28Not mediocrity.
00:35:29This design was based after ancient filigree.
00:35:32It's really interesting.
00:35:33Shut up.
00:35:35Honestly, you make me wonder.
00:35:37I mean, it's no secret you have a talent for making men pity you.
00:35:40Is that how you got this job?
00:35:42Say that again and I swear...
00:35:44No, you can't, sweetie.
00:35:45I know everything that happened between you and Dean.
00:35:47What are you talking about?
00:35:49Dean and I are cheating.
00:35:50What do you think your clients?
00:35:52Loving couples, no less.
00:35:54But think about their designer being a homewrecker.
00:35:57I doubt anyone would trust you to design their wedding ring.
00:36:00How dare you call me a homewrecker.
00:36:03Dean and I met long after you two broke up.
00:36:06Doesn't matter.
00:36:07No one's going to believe you.
00:36:09Him and I are to get married.
00:36:11He'll be by my side, and you'll be alone.
00:36:15I'll design your ring.
00:36:16Just don't be too sure you can keep it.
00:36:21Oh, I'm sure.
00:36:22So, um, with everything that you have told me about your vision for your big day,
00:36:33I have considered that that might be a good pairing for you.
00:36:37What about that one?
00:36:39The one from your little exhibition?
00:36:41Seems familiar, doesn't it?
00:36:42Wait, you want...
00:36:45You want that one?
00:36:46It's a bit tacky, but...
00:36:48It'll do.
00:36:49Sorry, that one is for...
00:36:51Are you in Dean's wedding?
00:36:53Yes.
00:36:54Well, that wedding's over, so don't you think it belongs to the real bride now?
00:36:58I wonder what Dean will say.
00:37:00Pauline, that ring looks so much better on you.
00:37:02Or you're the one that really deserves it.
00:37:05Can't you just, like, pick another one?
00:37:07Oh, darling, I can't.
00:37:08Then you're not using it anyway, so...
00:37:11Why not make it easy and you bring us that ring as your little gift to us?
00:37:16I'll never let you have it.
00:37:19Not as long as I'm alive.
00:37:20You really think you have a choice?
00:37:25Sylvia, you're just the ex that he left at the altar for me.
00:37:31Dean chose me.
00:37:33Dean cares about me more than he ever cared about you.
00:37:36Dean is a man of responsibility.
00:37:38The only reason he's marrying you is because of Michael, not for love.
00:37:42You?
00:37:44You're neither a good wife nor a good mother.
00:37:47I pity the life that you two will build together.
00:37:53What are you doing, Pauline?
00:37:54Dean, I'm your fiancé.
00:37:57How can you side with your ex over me?
00:38:00Sylvia's my designer now.
00:38:02No one, no one is allowed to hurt her.
00:38:06Not while I'm here.
00:38:11Dean, help me pick out the perfect dress.
00:38:15We have a wedding to plan.
00:38:17Would you just let me know what you decide when you figure it out?
00:38:20I have other stuff to do.
00:38:28You really are something, Dean.
00:38:31We're about to get married and you're still thinking about another woman?
00:38:37I told you.
00:38:39I'll give you what you want.
00:38:40Money, the name.
00:38:43But you need to be a real mother to Michael.
00:38:45That's our deal.
00:38:47And I'll stay loyal to the marriage.
00:38:50But don't ask for more.
00:38:52Fine.
00:38:55Now let's get back to the dresses.
00:39:04This wedding is happening.
00:39:06And no one, especially her, is going to ruin it.
00:39:10Find that woman.
00:39:13Sylvia Wilkins.
00:39:16Teach her a lesson.
00:39:18Some things aren't hers to touch.
00:39:21Sylvia, about Pauline's wedding ring project, I reassigned it to someone else.
00:39:43You don't have to do that anymore.
00:39:44Understood.
00:39:48Sylvia, I...
00:39:48Dean, we talked about this.
00:39:50You're the boss.
00:39:51I'm the employee.
00:39:52It's better for both of us if we just keep it that way, okay?
00:39:56You're right.
00:39:58Get home safe.
00:39:59Let's go.
00:39:59Let's go.
00:39:59Let's go.
00:40:00Let's go.
00:40:11Let's go.
00:40:19Let's go.
00:40:49Let's go.
00:41:04Where do you think you are going, sweetheart?
00:41:10I don't know you.
00:41:12I don't know you.
00:41:13Please, just don't touch me.
00:41:15Just don't touch me.
00:41:16Calm down.
00:41:17Calm down.
00:41:18Let us remind you.
00:41:21Huh?
00:41:23You owe somebody.
00:41:25It's very important.
00:41:27And we're just here to...
00:41:29Remind you.
00:41:32This is about my debt.
00:41:35I don't know who said you.
00:41:37But I swear, I'm working on it.
00:41:39It's not about the money.
00:41:43You pissed the person off.
00:41:49Malene?
00:41:49Get in.
00:42:04Come on.
00:42:05Come on.
00:42:05Sir, are you okay?
00:42:16Don't.
00:42:17You don't get to care about me anymore, okay?
00:42:19You're marrying Pauline.
00:42:21You don't get to care about me.
00:42:23Even if I'm marrying her, I can't ignore your safety.
00:42:26You know what they said?
00:42:28They said...
00:42:30They told me you messed with the wrong person.
00:42:35They didn't say her name.
00:42:37But I know that they were talking about Pauline.
00:42:41Forget I said anything, though.
00:42:42She's the mother of your child.
00:42:44She doesn't get a free pass for that.
00:42:46And no one gets to hurt you.
00:42:49No one else still breathing.
00:42:50You're home late.
00:42:57Don't tell me you were with your little designer again.
00:43:03Pauline?
00:43:04Do you have connections with people who do dirty work?
00:43:09What's going on?
00:43:10You think I'd do something criminal?
00:43:12Sylvia was nearly attacked tonight.
00:43:14Dean, come on.
00:43:15You think I hired criminals to attack her?
00:43:18What kind of woman do you think I am?
00:43:19How can you say that?
00:43:20I'm your fiancé.
00:43:21Then prove it.
00:43:23This marriage only happens if Sylvia's never touched.
00:43:27One incident.
00:43:28Just one.
00:43:29And the deal's off.
00:43:31No money, no wedding, nothing.
00:43:36Sweetie, come on.
00:43:45Okay.
00:43:46Of course.
00:43:47We'll protect your designer.
00:43:48I have nothing to hide.
00:43:54You think this scares me?
00:43:56You just handed me a clock, Dean.
00:43:58And she's already running out of time.
00:44:00What's up, kiddo?
00:44:13You're supposed to be in bed now.
00:44:15Dad!
00:44:16The nanny, if she doesn't give me dinner, I'm hungry.
00:44:21Wait, what?
00:44:22Why is Michael at the nanny's?
00:44:29And why didn't you feed him?
00:44:33He ate, okay?
00:44:35The nanny gave him food.
00:44:36He's just seeking attention.
00:44:38He's six years old.
00:44:39Exactly.
00:44:40Not a baby.
00:44:41He's coming home tomorrow.
00:44:42I'll pick him up myself.
00:44:43All right.
00:44:52I'll see you tomorrow.
00:44:53I promise.
00:44:56Just be a man tonight, okay?
00:44:58Dad, why can't Sylvia be my mom?
00:45:01Sylvia isn't your real mom, sweetheart.
00:45:05Your real mom is...
00:45:07Colleen.
00:45:08But she doesn't like me.
00:45:10She...
00:45:11She just doesn't know how to show it.
00:45:15Let me talk to her.
00:45:17Good night, kiddo.
00:45:18Good night, Dad.
00:45:19How I wish I could give Michael someone warm.
00:45:24Someone real.
00:45:26But Sylvia deserves a life free from this.
00:45:29Even if...
00:45:31I wanted more than...
00:45:32Who are you talking to?
00:45:41Michael.
00:45:43It's pretty clear that you don't care about him, do you?
00:45:48Dean.
00:45:49Of course I care about our son.
00:45:51I want to be better for Michael.
00:45:55But don't you think we should work on this first?
00:45:58No, I don't think so.
00:46:13So you don't want me to lay a finger on her, huh?
00:46:15You really think I can't destroy her without touching her?
00:46:22Hello.
00:46:22I have some interesting information on a woman named Sylvia Wilkins.
00:46:43She owes money.
00:46:45She owes money.
00:46:47A lot.
00:46:49And you'll be very interested once you find out where she works.
00:47:00Once your reputation crashes, that contract won't mean a damn thing.
00:47:04Hi.
00:47:13Can you tell me what's going on?
00:47:20No.
00:47:20This...
00:47:21This can't be real.
00:47:24Who would do something like this?
00:47:26Sylvia, tell me the truth.
00:47:29Is any of it true?
00:47:30Look, I can explain.
00:47:32Well, explain it to the five clients who canceled on you this morning.
00:47:36No one wants you designing their rings anymore.
00:47:38Sylvia, Sylvia, Sylvia, is it true you defaulted on your debts?
00:47:52Did you seduce your boss while he was engaged?
00:47:56I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:47:58That's enough.
00:48:00Get out of the way.
00:48:02These are lies.
00:48:04Anyone caught spreading them will face legal action from Sterling Designs.
00:48:08They
00:48:16They
00:48:16They
00:48:22They
00:48:24You
00:48:33They
00:48:34They
00:48:35They
00:48:35You didn't deserve any of this.
00:48:53If you want, I can help you leave it all behind.
00:48:55Once I graduate, we can go somewhere quieter.
00:48:58Start a life without all this noise.
00:49:02You're really kind.
00:49:05But, um, I'm not ready to quit.
00:49:08I'll just rebuild from the wreckage.
00:49:10Like I always do.
00:49:31Pauline, if this is true,
00:49:33then she didn't just try to hurt Sylvia.
00:49:35She wanted to destroy her.
00:49:36Why are you on my laptop?
00:49:52You leaked this.
00:49:54You did this to her?
00:49:56Dean, that's not true.
00:49:57And what am I supposed to believe in?
00:49:59I was desperate.
00:50:01You were slipping away.
00:50:02Every time you looked at Sylvia, I saw it.
00:50:05I just wanted her gone.
00:50:08Stop lying, Pauline.
00:50:11You never loved me.
00:50:12You just loved the brand, the name, the lifestyle.
00:50:16If it weren't for Michael, I would have never agreed to this marriage.
00:50:20I didn't want to hurt her.
00:50:22I just wanted her out of our lives.
00:50:24You wanted to ruin her.
00:50:26You're going to clear her name publicly.
00:50:28You're going to tell them everything you did.
00:50:31Or you walk away with nothing.
00:50:34No marriage, no money.
00:50:36They printed a retraction.
00:50:44Full page.
00:50:45Called the article slander.
00:50:47You're cleared.
00:50:49I don't understand what changed their minds.
00:50:52It just feels like a miracle.
00:50:55Well, sometimes miracles do happen.
00:50:57People are still cautious.
00:50:59But the truth's out now.
00:51:01They're listening again.
00:51:03Prove your ability to them.
00:51:05Tonight, we unveil a new line designed by Sylvia Wilkins.
00:51:31Wow.
00:51:32Thank you so much.
00:51:34I was crushed, humiliated, but I didn't hide this time.
00:51:44I chose to get up, and I designed my way out.
00:51:51Thank you so much to all of you for being here,
00:51:53and to everyone that still supports me today.
00:51:55It means the world to me.
00:51:56Miss Wilkins, we are so sorry.
00:52:18We owe you a huge apology.
00:52:19Dean Martinez, your boss, he fought like hell to clear your name.
00:52:25He even threatened to sue half of the press corps.
00:52:28What?
00:52:29Dean did all of you for being here, please.
00:52:39I want to thank you all for being here tonight.
00:52:43I have one final announcement to make.
00:52:45I will be officially stepping down from my position as director of Sterling Designs.
00:52:53And effective immediately, I'm appointing our new creative lead.
00:52:56Someone whose work speaks for itself, and whose integrity speaks even louder.
00:53:03Sylvia Wilkins.
00:53:12This was never about sacrifice.
00:53:14He left again, after doing everything for me.
00:53:41Mrs. Wilkins?
00:53:52Detective Parker, I decided to bring these to you personally.
00:53:58These documents clearly show Pauline orchestrated the smear campaign.
00:54:03She's the one behind it all.
00:54:06Wait, what is this?
00:54:07Is that some leftover evidence in her apartment, we're not sure what it's related to, but if
00:54:14it's useful, you're more than welcome to take it.
00:54:20Good luck.
00:54:25Wait, isn't this lab right next to Jacobs University?
00:54:29You said the lab name is...
00:54:40Sylvia, that clinic doesn't even do DNA paternity testing, and we have no record of a request
00:54:45under Dean's name.
00:54:46Okay, so what does that mean?
00:54:48It means the documents are fake.
00:54:53It was all a lie.
00:54:54I have to find him, before it's too late.
00:55:03I heard you quit your job and handed everything over to Sylvia?
00:55:06What a ridiculous rumor.
00:55:08It's true.
00:55:10You quit?
00:55:11Are you insane?
00:55:16Nothing's changed.
00:55:18We're still getting married.
00:55:19Bullshit.
00:55:19Without your job, without your salary, you mean nothing to me.
00:55:24How dare you just quit?
00:55:25I made my own decision.
00:55:27And I made mine too.
00:55:29We are not getting married.
00:55:31And you will provide financial support for me and Michael for the rest of our lives.
00:55:35Dean.
00:55:36Dean.
00:55:40This teenageness?
00:55:42Look, it's fake.
00:55:43Michael isn't your son.
00:55:45Of course Michael's his son.
00:55:47Stop lying through your teeth just to drag him back.
00:55:50Don't listen to her, Dean.
00:55:51I went there and I checked.
00:55:53That lab doesn't even do paternity tests.
00:55:56That document is fake.
00:55:59Michael isn't my son.
00:56:03Oh, hey.
00:56:05Hey.
00:56:06Are you okay?
00:56:13Hey.
00:56:14Hey.
00:56:17Dean.
00:56:21What happened?
00:56:23You're okay.
00:56:26Everything's over.
00:56:27What?
00:56:28Pauline's ex.
00:56:29He's, um, he's a criminal.
00:56:32He's in jail now.
00:56:32But he's, um, Michael's his son.
00:56:36Pauline ran away.
00:56:38She, she used Michael to trap me.
00:56:42Wait.
00:56:42So, so where is Pauline?
00:56:45I have enough evidence to put her behind the bars.
00:56:51She didn't even take Michael with her.
00:56:54To her, he means nothing.
00:56:57So, um, does this mean that you're single again?
00:57:02I, I guess that right now I'm trying to be what Michael needs.
00:57:09That's all that matters.
00:57:11You're not gonna try and find a good mother for him?
00:57:13Right now, there's no room for anyone else.
00:57:19Only you.
00:57:21I figured you'd never want me again.
00:57:23Why do you always have to carry everything alone?
00:57:27You cleared my name.
00:57:29You quit your job for me.
00:57:32Because I love you.
00:57:34I don't need a reason to protect you.
00:57:37I just don't want to drag you into my mess.
00:57:39Because you're such a fool.
00:57:53Hello.
00:57:54Hey.
00:57:55Sylvia, you, you're burning up.
00:57:58Because I'm biting more than just lies.
00:58:00Oh, Jacob helped you with the DNA test?
00:58:13Yeah, he, um, he helped me with the investigation.
00:58:18He's a nice guy.
00:58:20Yeah, he is.
00:58:21I guess he's not the right person for you.
00:58:24You guys barely dated.
00:58:26Come on.
00:58:28Jacob and I are just friends.
00:58:30Plus, I never got jealous of Pauline.
00:58:35He was reckless with her once.
00:58:38Quickly realized she's not the one.
00:58:41You are the only woman I've ever really loved.
00:59:00I'm feeling a lot better, actually.
00:59:09I'm feeling a lot better, actually.
00:59:22Can I go back to work?
00:59:24Calm down, workaholic.
00:59:26The doctor said you need to rest for two more days.
00:59:30But I guess the team misses you already.
00:59:34And Michael said he misses you, too.
00:59:45Hello?
00:59:46Mom?
00:59:47You're already calling me mom now, Michael?
00:59:49Yes, because I recognized you when we first met.
00:59:54Dad always keeps your photo in his book.
01:00:00He never stopped loving me.
01:00:03He was just weighed down by guilt and responsibility.
01:00:05Sylvia, where are you?
01:00:18Sylvia.
01:01:49I thought you might need this.
01:01:57You're always one that gets me coffee usually, and so I thought I would change it up a little
01:01:59bit today.
01:02:01This is beautiful.
01:02:09Who's the lucky client?
01:02:12The most important one.
01:02:14It's yours.
01:02:29It's yours.
01:02:29I decided for you.
01:02:40For us.
01:02:47The most important one.
01:02:58The most important one.
