00:00:00Today's biggest news, Jonathan Whiteford, the city's golden bachelor, is set to marry
00:00:19his longtime fiancee, Julie Miller, uniting New York's most elite families.
00:00:23This is Amber Wilson from J.K.R. News.
00:00:30Mr. Whiteford, your meeting is in 30 minutes.
00:00:41You smoking cigarettes?
00:00:44It's an important meeting.
00:00:46We need to get ready.
00:00:48It could be a little softer in the morning.
00:00:51Nolan likes a buzzkill.
00:00:54Good morning to you, too.
00:01:00I had never had Mediterranean food before, so he immediately takes me to this restaurant
00:01:04on 45th and...
00:01:05Mmm, Jonathan, he's quite a romantic.
00:01:08And then what?
00:01:10Oh.
00:01:11Maple, right?
00:01:13Sorry I didn't mean to take your seat.
00:01:14Come join us.
00:01:16We were just chatting about my amazing weekend with Jonathan.
00:01:19Oh, Maple would know.
00:01:20She schedules everything for Jonathan.
00:01:22Oh, right, his personal assistant.
00:01:27It's nice to meet you.
00:01:28I'm Julie Miller, Jonathan's fiancee.
00:01:31Nice to meet you, Miss Miller.
00:01:34Being his assistant doesn't mean getting personal.
00:01:38Take this as a...
00:01:39Oh, wait.
00:01:41I've read so many wonderful things about you, Mabel.
00:01:45Julie.
00:01:45Julie.
00:01:46What are you doing here?
00:01:57It's just a surprise visit for my lovely fiancƩe.
00:02:03Julie, I thought we discussed about keeping boundaries.
00:02:06In front of everyone, play the part, Jonathan.
00:02:09We're engaged, remember?
00:02:12Mabel, are you ready for the meeting?
00:02:13Yes, everything's prepared.
00:02:16Good, I want you to take the lead this time.
00:02:18Lead the meeting?
00:02:19Yes, you've earned it.
00:02:22Feel up for it?
00:02:23Absolutely.
00:02:27Thank you, Mr. Whiteford.
00:02:28I don't need formalities.
00:02:29Come on, let's go.
00:02:30We're going to be late.
00:02:34Always work first with him, huh?
00:02:36Woo-hoo.
00:02:43Congratulations on nailing the pitch, Mabel.
00:02:56Well, I learned from the best.
00:02:58Is he as usual, Jonathan?
00:03:17Mom!
00:03:17I thought we agreed on calling first.
00:03:22Since when do I need permission to see my son, hmm?
00:03:26What's the matter?
00:03:26We are hosting a joint family dinner with the Millers.
00:03:32You and Julie are expected to be there.
00:03:33We agreed to delay the engagement.
00:03:35This is not up for debate.
00:03:37You will attend the family dinner.
00:03:43And you should join us well, Mabel.
00:03:46A toast.
00:04:05To the union.
00:04:06Yes.
00:04:10Mabel, can you pull me some wine?
00:04:12Mabel's a guest.
00:04:13Of course.
00:04:14Of course.
00:04:15Miss Miller?
00:04:16A soon-to-be Mrs. Whiteford.
00:04:19Dad, I'm still your daughter.
00:04:21We are so excited to welcome you into our family.
00:04:24This is the first joyful dinner we've had since Fiona.
00:04:35With Jonathan and Julie together.
00:04:41It almost feels like Fiona is with us here again.
00:04:47Mom.
00:04:49We are so looking forward to this marriage.
00:04:52Yeah.
00:04:55I'm full.
00:04:57Please enjoy.
00:04:57You're okay?
00:05:15Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:05:18I thought you were someone else.
00:05:20Who are you looking for?
00:05:22Jonathan Whiteford.
00:05:23The owner of the mansion.
00:05:26You, uh, must be his girlfriend.
00:05:29No, just his assistant.
00:05:31I see.
00:05:32I'm Ryan.
00:05:33My father is the gardener here.
00:05:35I know the house really well.
00:05:36I actually may be able to help you.
00:05:38Jonathan has a few favorite spots around here.
00:05:41Though he doesn't visit much nowadays,
00:05:43he does have quite a few properties.
00:05:45Yes, he prefers to live alone.
00:05:48Is that so?
00:05:49Oh, good.
00:05:50You've met.
00:05:50I was thinking of setting you two up on a date.
00:05:55You make a cute couple.
00:06:06Petite?
00:06:07Yes, Mabel.
00:06:09Ryan's a fine young man,
00:06:10and you're a diligent worker.
00:06:13You make a good match.
00:06:14Well, it's a kind offer,
00:06:16but I'm not interested in dating anyone right now.
00:06:19Well, no effects.
00:06:21None taken.
00:06:23Anyway, I should go find Jonathan.
00:06:24He has a very early meeting.
00:06:29Mabel, you're a smart girl.
00:06:33I know how busy you've been serving my son.
00:06:36What fun you've had.
00:06:38I don't understand.
00:06:39Let me clarify.
00:06:41You're barely a side dish.
00:06:43Now the main course is served.
00:06:44Stay away from my son.
00:06:49Or lose your position at the company
00:06:51and be blacklisted elsewhere.
00:06:53Have I made myself clear?
00:06:59Now, about you and Ryan.
00:07:02You're quite the pair.
00:07:04I can foresee a wedding in the near future.
00:07:06Morning.
00:07:25The files are ready for you to sign.
00:07:34Were you okay last night?
00:07:35What's on my schedule for today?
00:07:42One meeting in the morning,
00:07:43two in the afternoon,
00:07:45and Julie wants a dinner date.
00:07:49I've set up calendar alerts.
00:07:51You're wearing a new perfume today.
00:08:07You have plaids later?
00:08:09Yes.
00:08:10Miss Whiteford set me up for a date.
00:08:12It's after work.
00:08:14Oh, a date?
00:08:17Are you joking?
00:08:18You're not the only one
00:08:20inclined for a bit of romance,
00:08:22Jonathan.
00:08:32Before we start,
00:08:34you should know that
00:08:35I am a messy eater.
00:08:38And I hate cats.
00:08:39I'm also indifferent to humanity
00:08:42and climate change.
00:08:44We can just agree
00:08:45that this wasn't a match.
00:08:47And that's your strategy for tonight?
00:08:50Tell me more about yourself.
00:08:51What do you want to know?
00:08:52Family?
00:08:53My mom died,
00:08:55and my father is a gambler.
00:08:57You'd inherit his debts
00:08:58at the altar.
00:08:58Delightful company you are.
00:09:02I'm a walking old flag.
00:09:03Who knows?
00:09:04I might even become an abuser.
00:09:06An abuser?
00:09:08Do you use ropes?
00:09:10What?
00:09:11You see,
00:09:11I enjoy being tied up,
00:09:13so I'm rather intrigued.
00:09:16Oh, weirdo.
00:09:18Says Miss Monster Day.
00:09:21Meatball?
00:09:22You're Jack's son.
00:09:33He was such a talented gardener.
00:09:36A favorite servant of mine
00:09:37growing up.
00:09:38If you don't mind,
00:09:39we're on a date.
00:09:41Oh, and having fun, I see.
00:09:43We would be,
00:09:45without any interruptions.
00:09:52I think.
00:09:57I'm on my way.
00:09:59Okay.
00:10:00Sorry.
00:10:00I have to go.
00:10:04Meatball.
00:10:10Excuse me.
00:10:10Hi, I'm here for my father,
00:10:11Mr. Morris.
00:10:12What happened?
00:10:13He's stable now.
00:10:15The predators got rough with him.
00:10:17Broke a couple ribs,
00:10:18but he's breathing.
00:10:18How do I pay
00:10:22for the bills?
00:10:23They've been paid for.
00:10:25By whom?
00:10:30Ryan.
00:10:31What are you doing here?
00:10:33To finish the date.
00:10:34I'm starving.
00:10:36It's a very expensive date.
00:10:40I'll pay you back.
00:10:41Later.
00:10:42For now,
00:10:42let's get something to eat.
00:10:48So, you grew up
00:10:55in the Whiteford Mansion?
00:10:57Yeah, I did.
00:10:58I helped my dad
00:11:00with the gardens,
00:11:00and we planted exotic flowers
00:11:02from around the world.
00:11:04Paradise for plant geeks,
00:11:05for sure.
00:11:06Sounds super nerdy.
00:11:07But...
00:11:08You were serious
00:11:13about your father's
00:11:14debts, weren't you?
00:11:16He was a gambler.
00:11:17He's changed,
00:11:20but it still haunts us.
00:11:22I just hope to one day
00:11:24settle the debts.
00:11:25You were not the terrible person
00:11:26you made yourself out to be.
00:11:28You've known me for one day.
00:11:30Hold your conclusions, Sherlock.
00:11:34Well,
00:11:35this is Wool.
00:11:38Um,
00:11:39goodnight, nerd.
00:11:41Goodnight, monster date.
00:11:41It's late.
00:11:53Where you been?
00:11:59Were you out with them all night?
00:12:02It's my personal time.
00:12:04I don't have to report
00:12:05everything to you.
00:12:06So it went well, then.
00:12:07Your mother
00:12:08set us up, Jonathan.
00:12:09How could I refuse?
00:12:11Good.
00:12:12So then,
00:12:12it was all just for show.
00:12:14Well, I actually had
00:12:15a really nice time.
00:12:16I might consider
00:12:16a second date.
00:12:19I can still smell
00:12:20Julie's perfume.
00:12:21Then come shower it off me.
00:12:24You went on a date
00:12:25with another man.
00:12:26And you took another woman
00:12:27to a restaurant
00:12:27that I recommended.
00:12:28Jealous?
00:12:30Not as much as you.
00:12:31Not as much as I gave you.

00:16:01Hello, this is Mabel.
00:16:03Evening, Mabel.
00:16:04Ryan, what an honor.
00:16:07You want to grab dinner together?
00:16:08Just as friends, of course.
00:16:09I am not up for another dramatic date.
00:16:13Sure, why not?
00:16:15Where are we going?
00:16:16I know the perfect spot.
00:16:17I'll text you.
00:16:18See you soon.
00:16:19I'm so glad we got to try this place again.
00:16:25This is amazing.
00:16:27I know.
00:16:28I think it's got some drugs in it or something.
00:16:30It'd be weird if they didn't.
00:16:31How could it be so addictive?
00:16:34How have you been lately?
00:16:36Can't complain.
00:16:37Because you signed an NDA?
00:16:39Or because you are happy?
00:16:41The latter.
00:16:43Although, if I did sign an NDA, I couldn't really share otherwise.
00:16:47Goodbye.
00:16:48This is true.
00:16:50Hey, I asked you out on a date for a reason.
00:16:53I think we would make excellent business partners.
00:16:56Business partners?
00:16:57Yeah.
00:16:58Well, I was just saying, our first date was rather chaotic.
00:17:01So I wasn't able to properly introduce myself to you.
00:17:05I'm Ryan Anderson.
00:17:07I'm the founder of Novatec.
00:17:09And I would like for you to join us head of the creative strategies.
00:17:13Novatec?
00:17:19Novatec?
00:17:21But I thought you said you were...
00:17:22The gardener's son.
00:17:23And yes, I still am, but I'm not defined by what my father does.
00:17:28Even if Barbara thinks so.
00:17:31After years of education and, well, hard work,
00:17:34I find myself at MIT and started my own company.
00:17:37It's good to own something of your own, right?
00:17:40That's incredible, Ryan.
00:17:42And I'm grateful for the opportunity, but I already have a job.
00:17:46And I'm just an assistant.
00:17:48So I'm sure there are other people much more qualified than me out there.
00:17:52You're not just anyone.
00:17:54You're the key success to the Whitefords project.
00:17:57It's time for you to get outside of Jonathan's shadow.
00:18:01So, cheers to chasing what you truly deserve.
00:18:05Miss Whiteford, um, Jonathan's left for the evening.
00:18:25I'm here to see you.
00:18:27How was everything with Ryan?
00:18:29It was pleasant.
00:18:31Thank you for the introduction.
00:18:33When do you plan to marry him?
00:18:35We've only just met.
00:18:39I've warned you.
00:18:41No marriage.
00:18:44No job at Whiteford Tech.
00:18:47And you will be banned from the industry.
00:18:50I've ended things with Jonathan.
00:18:52Then marry Ryan to prove it.
00:18:53I've done my research as well, Mabel.
00:18:59Leave my son.
00:19:01And I'll clear all your father's debts.
00:19:04If not,
00:19:06those seeking him will find him.
00:19:10Perhaps Jonathan is the one who needs guidance.
00:19:13Not me.
00:19:14I don't think you understand the situation.
00:19:18You are nothing to Jonathan.
00:19:21At most, a shadow of his past pain.
00:19:25A reminder of a heartbreak.
00:19:28What do you mean?
00:19:29You don't know, do you?
00:19:34Marry Ryan.
00:19:36It's my last warning.
00:19:37It's my last warning.
00:19:44Did I miss a meeting?
00:19:59Uh, no.
00:20:00I just...
00:20:02Your driver couldn't get a hold of you.
00:20:03He was concerned.
00:20:05Mr. Whiteford, it's October 52nd.
00:20:07Shit, shit.
00:20:08You never always take the day off.
00:20:11It's okay.
00:20:13The car's out front.
00:20:13No, no, it's not okay.
00:20:14I never forget.
00:20:17Just clear everything for today.
00:20:19Okay.
00:20:20I've kept your calendar clear, as always.
00:20:22Okay, thank you.
00:20:24Um.
00:20:25The car, Mr. Whiteford.
00:20:26Right.
00:20:27I'll, uh, see you.
00:20:28At the office?
00:20:28Right.
00:20:35Hello?
00:20:35Mabel, where are you?
00:20:37Our server is dead!
00:20:38Oh, uh, okay.
00:20:39I'm on my way.
00:20:43The entire server crashed!
00:20:47Where is Mr. Whiteford?
00:20:49Hey, what happened?
00:20:50We are under attack.
00:20:51We need a system reboot.
00:20:52Where is Mr. Whiteford?
00:20:53We need his admin code.
00:20:55Now!
00:20:55Okay, he's out of the office.
00:20:57Um, let me just try contacting him, okay?
00:21:02We need that code.
00:21:03Do you have access to it?
00:21:04No, that code is highly confidential.
00:21:06Jonathan is the sole owner.
00:21:08Um, let me try.
00:21:09What else?
00:21:18We're completely offline.
00:21:20Come on, Mabel.
00:21:20You know you're the best.
00:21:21Yeah, a moment.
00:21:25Try Fiona.
00:21:27F-I-O-N-A.
00:21:31Fiona.
00:21:32Give it a shot.
00:21:36Fiona.
00:21:37Give it a shot.
00:21:39Remember that awkward dinner at the Whitefruits?
00:21:46Since Fiona, you are nothing to Jonathan.
00:21:51At most, a shadow of his past pain.
00:21:55A reminder of a heartbreak.
00:22:06Hello, Jonathan.
00:22:07Good to see you.
00:22:10How may I help you?
00:22:13Did Jonathan model this whole thing after you?
00:22:16Oh, no.
00:22:17That's not Mabel.
00:22:21That's my sister, Fiona.
00:22:24Jonathan's first love.
00:22:25Uh, next, Mabel Morris?
00:22:40Uh, next, Mabel Morris?
00:22:40Hello.
00:22:56Hello.
00:22:56Hello.
00:22:56You know, coding demands intense focus and absolute silence.
00:23:04That's why having a capable assistant to help with other things like interviews is crucial.
00:23:15Mabel Morris, Mabel Morris, Mr. Whiteford, here's my resume.
00:23:32Mabel.
00:23:32It's nice to meet you.
00:23:34It's nice to meet you.
00:23:47When can you start?
00:23:48Tomorrow.
00:23:51Tomorrow.
00:23:51No, actually, today.
00:23:54Welcome to Whiteford Tech.
00:23:57Mabel-
00:23:58Mabel.
00:23:58Mabel, are you all right?
00:24:12I know, shocking, isn't it?
00:24:15You know, when they mentioned you years ago, I was concerned.
00:24:19I thought you had actually fallen for someone.
00:24:22But then I saw you, and I knew there was nothing to worry about.
00:24:26To Jonathan, you're just a reminder of my sister.
00:24:31He doesn't love you.
00:24:33You're nothing but a shadow to him.
00:24:34You are, at best, a placebo.
00:24:40Oh, Mabel, did you actually think you stood a chance?
00:24:47You pathetic slut.
00:24:50Fuck off.
00:24:51Oh, do you know about today?
00:24:58I don't want to know.
00:24:59Fiona died today, seven years ago.
00:25:02He visits her grave on this day, every year.
00:25:08You see?
00:25:10You're just a joke.
00:25:11Hey, Mabel.
00:25:35What's wrong?
00:25:36There was an attack on the system at work today.
00:25:45Okay.
00:25:46Well, since you're here and down at the office, I assume it's resolved?
00:25:51Your passcode.
00:25:54What is it?
00:25:56What?
00:25:57The code, Jonathan, what is it?
00:25:59That's none of your business.
00:26:04Come on.
00:26:04Uh, tell me about this attack.
00:26:12So, it's been fixed?
00:26:15We had to restart the system.
00:26:18System reboot.
00:26:19I see.
00:26:21It asked for an admin code.
00:26:23Why didn't you call me?
00:26:24I tried to, but it didn't go through.
00:26:26Signal, down there.
00:26:30We got the code.
00:26:32It did.
00:26:34How?
00:26:36Luckily,
00:26:39Julie was there.
00:26:44So you've seen...
00:26:45Fiona?
00:26:51Yeah.
00:26:56Fiona?
00:27:00Yeah.
00:27:02Mabel.
00:27:04I know you have a lot of questions.
00:27:06Actually,
00:27:07I found a lot of answers today.
00:27:13I thought I was lucky.
00:27:16To have that job.
00:27:17To work at the company.
00:27:21To be by your side.
00:27:25To enter a relationship with you or whatever that was.
00:27:31But it turns out,
00:27:33I was just a replacement.
00:27:35No.
00:27:36A replacement for some sick, twisted obsession that you can't get over.
00:27:40I'm shadowing for a dead girlfriend.
00:27:45All those years.
00:27:47When you're dead.
00:27:51You're fucking a ghost.
00:27:52Yeah!
00:27:54Don't speak.
00:27:56Don't use that term.
00:27:57Dead?
00:27:58Ghost?
00:27:59Yeah.
00:28:00That's the reality of it, Jonathan.
00:28:02She is both.
00:28:04I'm Mabel Morris.
00:28:12I'm not...
00:28:14I'm not your dead girlfriend.
00:28:17I'm not Siona.
00:28:25You're right.
00:28:27You're not her.
00:28:30Nobody is.
00:28:34I've submitted my...
00:28:42Resignation.
00:28:45Thank you for the opportunity.
00:28:48Years ago, I learned a lot.
00:28:52Bye, Mr. Whiteford.
00:28:53Bye.
00:29:04You said you were a friend of Mr. Morris's?
00:29:24A friend of his daughter, Mabel, actually.
00:29:25Ah, yes, Mabel.
00:29:27She's quite sweet and caring.
00:29:29Absolutely.
00:29:30She asked me to come check on Scott.
00:29:32How's his condition?
00:29:34He's well.
00:29:37With a little rest, he should recover fully.
00:29:40That's good news.
00:29:51He's at Silverpine Hospital.
00:29:54Tell his creditors.
00:29:56I knew you had it in me.
00:29:57Oh, Mrs. Whiteford, I was just...
00:30:01Spare me the excuses, Julie.
00:30:05I've seen what you're capable of.
00:30:08Years ago.
00:30:09Mrs. Whiteford, there's been a misunderstanding.
00:30:20Oh, enough, Julie.
00:30:22Cut it.
00:30:23Fiona was sweet, but too naive for our world.
00:30:30Her innocence was a liability.
00:30:32I tried separating Jonathan and Fiona for years.
00:30:37But Jonathan was so invested.
00:30:39Even ignoring this family to pursue his little tech project.
00:30:43All encouraged by Fiona.
00:30:44All encouraged by Fiona.
00:30:45Luckily, his project succeeded.
00:30:48But not without him taking down his father's legacy first.
00:30:52We could have been so much more influential, so powerful.
00:30:55But just when I thought all was lost, Fiona was out of the picture.
00:31:05Her death was no coincidence, Julie.
00:31:08God plays no favors.
00:31:10I see your hand in her car accident.
00:31:15How long have you known?
00:31:17Oh, Julie.
00:31:20I've known from the start.
00:31:25What happened?
00:31:28He's...
00:31:28His debt collector's caught up to him.
00:31:31Will he be okay?
00:31:32Prepare for the worst.
00:31:33He's lost a lot of blood.
00:31:36How did he find him?
00:31:37Someone must have tipped him off.
00:31:39We're investigating.
00:31:39We'll do our best to locate his attackers.
00:31:42I've warned you.
00:31:48It's Barbara Whiteford.
00:31:50The Barbara Whiteford, Queen of Manhattan.
00:31:53She's after my father.
00:31:54That's a serious accusation, ma'am.
00:31:56Respectfully, your father's not significant enough for her to waste.
00:32:00You don't understand.
00:32:01I got too close to her son and she told me...
00:32:03Please calm down.
00:32:04No, you don't understand.
00:32:06Please, please.
00:32:06Miss Morris?
00:32:09Unfortunately, we couldn't save your father.
00:32:12He passed away.
00:32:17No.
00:32:17No!
00:32:20What?
00:32:21Can I...
00:32:22No!
00:32:28No!
00:32:31You're sorry.
00:32:42No!
00:32:43Mom, after you left, Dad was never the same.
00:32:54When you left us, I lost him.
00:33:04I always thought it would get better.
00:33:11But it did.
00:33:13I'm sorry.
00:33:18I didn't feel like a nobody.
00:33:24I failed.
00:33:26I failed at everything.
00:33:35Leave me alone!
00:33:37I got food from your favorite place.
00:33:52You don't have to talk to me, but please say something.
00:33:55Well, I can't eat all that food by myself.
00:34:01I'm only going to ask you once, and I'll leave you be.
00:34:14But are you okay?
00:34:15Do you want to talk about it?
00:34:18I'm managing.
00:34:20The food helped.
00:34:22You don't have to smile if you don't want to.
00:34:31It's so good I feel vulnerable.
00:34:33We all have our moments.
00:34:34It's just...
00:34:35It's been incredibly hard.
00:34:40I get it.
00:34:42And I'm sorry you're going through all of this.
00:34:44I've lost a loved one, too.
00:34:45I've lost a loved one, too.
00:34:48Great.
00:34:49Do you have a dead girlfriend, also?
00:34:51A dead girlfriend.
00:34:52We...
00:34:53You knew about Jonathan and Fiona.
00:34:56So you knew.
00:34:57You knew all this time.
00:34:58But you two are completely different.
00:35:00I didn't lose a lover.
00:35:05It was my mother I lost.
00:35:09Ryan, I'm sorry.
00:35:12It's okay.
00:35:14It's okay.
00:35:16This whole week is just...
00:35:20Everything...
00:35:21It feels so pointless.
00:35:23And that's a natural feeling to have.
00:35:26I used to mock existentialism.
00:35:29I get it now.
00:35:31I love how intelligent you sound.
00:35:34Even now.
00:35:35Stop.
00:35:36No, seriously.
00:35:38Modern day Socrates.
00:35:40Thank you, Ryan.
00:35:43For the food and the talk.
00:35:56Less of the food.
00:35:58It's still so addictive.
00:36:00They definitely put drugs in it.
00:36:02Yeah.
00:36:03Hey, if you need anything, just call me.
00:36:07I will.
00:36:08I think I just need some time to think things over.
00:36:11Have you considered your next steps?
00:36:14I'm not sure.
00:36:16Quit my job.
00:36:17Settled the debts.
00:36:18Now the world's just kind of open to me.
00:36:21Strange.
00:36:22Yeah.
00:36:23Well, there's a spot for you at Novatec.
00:36:25Are you sure about me leading?
00:36:27You're the best one to lead it.
00:36:29Come on.
00:36:30Just give it a shot.
00:36:31I'll think about it.
00:36:32Seriously.
00:36:33That's all I can ask.
00:36:34Mabel?
00:36:35Are you doing okay?
00:36:36Why aren't you here?
00:36:37Mabel?
00:36:38Are you doing okay?
00:36:40Why are you here?
00:36:42Mabel?
00:36:43Are you doing okay?
00:36:44Why aren't you here?
00:36:45Mabel?
00:36:46Are you doing okay?
00:36:47Why are you here?
00:36:48Mabel?
00:36:49Are you doing okay?
00:36:50Why are you here?
00:36:51I saw what happened on the news and I...
00:36:52You're worried?
00:36:53Save it.
00:36:54It's none of your business.
00:36:55Mabel, please, let me just...
00:36:56I'm done.
00:36:57Listening, Jonathan.
00:36:58I spent so much time on something that wasn't real.
00:37:13And now I finally know the truth.
00:37:17I thought what we had was real.
00:37:20But I was just a pill for a wound that won't heal.
00:37:27I truly loved you, Jonathan.
00:37:37Don't come looking for me again.
00:37:40Leave me alone.
00:37:42It's my final request.
00:37:50And this is the upstairs division.
00:37:53I can see it.
00:37:55What do you think?
00:37:56Love it.
00:37:57It's so lively.
00:37:59That's the goal.
00:38:00Hey, I'm in.
00:38:01But I have one condition.
00:38:03I'd like to work from a different city.
00:38:06Why is that?
00:38:07Well, I hear you're expanding to Tokyo.
00:38:09That's where you're headed, right?
00:38:11Someone's been doing her homework.
00:38:13And for a new market, it's important to have someone you trust by your side.
00:38:17I'm listening.
00:38:18Welcome to the table.
00:38:19Welcome to the table.
00:38:20What an honor, Captain.
00:38:21Let me show you around.
00:38:22Sir?
00:38:23You have a meeting with the creative team in 15 minutes?
00:38:26Right.
00:38:27Um, bring me their pitch deck and latest progress report and see if Mabel is ready for the creative
00:38:33discussion.
00:38:34Sir?
00:38:35Mabel doesn't work here anymore.
00:38:36I can get someone else to help with-
00:38:37She can't be replaced.
00:38:38There's no one like her.
00:38:39No one like her.
00:38:40I can't be replaced.
00:38:57I can't be replaced.
00:39:07There's no one like her
00:39:13Why don't you start in the living room?
00:39:17What?
00:39:21What is happening here? We're just doing our job sir. Please don't interrupt
00:39:25Where where are these going? They're going to the donation. They aren't already left
00:39:38Get out and mess
00:39:44You do not want to talk
00:39:48Okay, you haven't been this reasons Fiona
00:39:51Why are you this upset over a fleeting affair? Just move on find a boat wasn't some fleeting affair
00:39:56She's clearly just a villain for Fiona nothing more than her look-alike. She's different
00:40:01Funny professional. She makes me feel good about myself. She's she's Mabel
00:40:07And I actually like her for who she is
00:40:17What about our engagement
00:40:20Julie
00:40:23When Fiona left I was lost I
00:40:27Would never marry you having some
00:40:29Fleeting feelings for her. That's that's not right for either one of us. Oh, you don't determine that
00:40:34Jonathan, I have dreamed of our marriage since the day we met I sacrificed so much for that dream. I lost everything
00:40:43What do you mean by that?
00:40:45Nothing
00:40:47What are you hiding nothing? I was just saying that I have something to do with me believing I don't have to answer your accusations
00:40:54You're delusion you
00:40:59Yeah, this is silly baby
00:41:03We'll talk about this tomorrow, okay?
00:41:05Just sleep this off and we'll talk tomorrow
00:41:11Hi, give me the visitors list for Mabel's father's death
00:41:25It's urgent
00:41:31The hospital's footage was erased but a doctor remembers a young woman claiming to be Mabel's friend
00:41:35A young woman?
00:41:37Yes, sir. A detailed description matches Miss Miller
00:41:44Julie
00:41:45Should I contact Miss Miller for confirmation?
00:41:47No, don't bother. Any news on Mabel's location?
00:41:53She just purchased tickets for many destinations
00:41:57Where is she currently?
00:41:59Last known location
00:42:01She's in a cab to JFK Airport. Get the car ready. Now
00:42:13Okay, pull over. Right here. Stop.
00:42:16Mabel!
00:42:17Are you insane? What the hell are you doing?
00:42:26Mabel, where are you?
00:42:27Jonathan, you're welcome
00:42:33Goodbye
00:42:34Wait, Mabel! Mabel!
00:42:34Wait
00:42:43Did you know about Mabel's departure?
00:42:46I know she left with Ryan Anderson, the servant's son
00:42:50It's a good match. You should be happy for her
00:42:52Were you part of this?
00:42:55Jonathan
00:42:57Mabel made her own choice. No one pushed her
00:43:01She has her life. We have ours
00:43:03They don't intersect
00:43:06Remember, you have responsibilities. The wedding's next month
00:43:09Well, I'll marry Julie
00:43:12I won't be a pawn in your plan
00:43:15I love Mabel
00:43:18She's the one I want
00:43:19She is merely a stand-in for Fiona
00:43:21She's not!
00:43:21I know it's already too late
00:43:26But my feelings for her are real
00:43:31I'll wait for her
00:43:32I'll wait as long as it takes because this is my life
00:43:35And I'll spend it with Mabel
00:43:37And I'll spend it with Mabel
00:43:39I'll be like, I'll be like, I'm scared
00:43:51Oh, no, I might be
00:43:52Mabel, turn it off
00:43:54Mabel, turn it off.
00:44:02Mabel!
00:44:05Okay, you lazy bone.
00:44:07Come on, there's a meeting to attend to.
00:44:10I programmed you too well, didn't I?
00:44:13I learned it myself.
00:44:15Exactly, that's why I said I programmed you too well.
00:44:18Show off.
00:44:24The driver is ten minutes away.
00:44:35Cut it.
00:44:37Put some clothes on.
00:44:41You can't see me, right?
00:44:43Don't need to.
00:44:45I know you too well.
00:44:47Thank you, Mark.
00:44:48Heard that.
00:44:51Incoming call from Mrs.
00:44:54Whiteford.
00:44:55Put it through.
00:44:57Mr. Whiteford, it's urgent.
00:44:59Please come home.
00:45:00Your mother's condition is critical.
00:45:12What happened?
00:45:13She suffered a stroke last week.
00:45:16Mom, mom.
00:45:19She'll recover, right?
00:45:20She's alright for now.
00:45:22But she might not speak again.
00:45:24What?
00:45:26A severe stroke, Mr. Whiteford.
00:45:28She's lucky she's even breathing.
00:45:32It's me.
00:45:35What can I do to help?
00:45:40You can keep her calm.
00:45:42She's a fighter.
00:45:43She might be able to pull through.
00:45:44She might be able to pull through.
00:45:46See me?
00:45:49I'm here.
00:45:52Mabel, this is my father here I've been telling you about.
00:45:55Mabel, it's such a pleasure.
00:45:57Ryan's told me so much about you.
00:45:59Likewise.
00:46:00He's going on about those unique seeds that you've been planting.
00:46:05He's kind of nerdy sometimes.
00:46:07Oh, so nerdy.
00:46:08Mabel!
00:46:09Mabel, I just wanted to sort things out.
00:46:39Everything was sorted.
00:46:41It's all behind us.
00:46:45Um, hey, Jonathan.
00:46:47They're just here to visit an old man.
00:46:49Isn't that okay?
00:46:50Dad, this is your home as well.
00:46:52We don't need his approval.
00:46:54Actually, Jack, I was thinking you should come live in the city with us.
00:46:57I see you two.
00:46:58You live together, huh?
00:47:00It's not your business.
00:47:01Mabel, I just wanted to...
00:47:03I see you haven't changed.
00:47:07Sorry, Jack.
00:47:08I just remembered I have a phone call that I need to meet.
00:47:13Mabel.
00:47:13We can talk about it, you know.
00:47:21About the product launch?
00:47:22My only concern is the interface.
00:47:24It's not user-friendly enough.
00:47:26Mabel.
00:47:27It's okay to be upset with Jonathan.
00:47:28No need to hide it.
00:47:30He's just a competitor now.
00:47:31Speaking of which, the new app at White for Tech is dominating the charts.
00:47:35We should look into that.
00:47:36Can I ask you something?
00:47:37If you're going to say something irritating, I'm not interested.
00:47:42Do you still have feelings for Jonathan?
00:47:47He broke my heart once.
00:47:49I'm not going to give him a second chance.
00:48:01This is Mabel.
00:48:03Head of creatives.
00:48:04Nice to meet the team.
00:48:05We've heard many great things about you, Mabel.
00:48:08Your products are so exciting.
00:48:11We always try our very best to ensure...
00:48:15Good morning.
00:48:16What are you doing here?
00:48:18Mr. Whiteford, welcome.
00:48:22Mr. Whiteford's our angel investor.
00:48:24He's shown great interest in this product and requested to join us at this meeting.
00:48:30I hope that isn't a problem, Mr. Anderson.
00:48:31Considering the product is still under testing, we typically limit our attendance.
00:48:37He's welcome to join.
00:48:39I'm intrigued to hear Mr. Whiteford's thoughts.
00:48:42His insight is invaluable.
00:48:46Do you mind if I take a seat?
00:48:47I love being part of the creative process.
00:48:48What an honor, Mr. Whiteford.
00:48:58At the end of the day, our product is really exciting and thank you all so much for spending
00:49:02your afternoon with us at Nova Tech.
00:49:04We are thrilled to be doing business with you.
00:49:07Well, this sounds like a game-changer.
00:49:12Congratulations.
00:49:14Mr. Whiteford,
00:49:16do your thoughts?
00:49:19It's good.
00:49:21Surely, as a leader in this industry, you have more to offer than good.
00:49:26I don't think it's my place to say more.
00:49:29If we always play it safe, we'll never achieve perfection.
00:49:31You've grown a lot, Mabel.
00:49:38And it's a strong product, but not yet a market leader.
00:49:42But there's potential.
00:49:45Your media needs more clarity.
00:49:46Your media needs affecting your overall product.
00:49:49You need to improve the interactive system.
00:49:51It's far too average.
00:49:53And the interface needs to be more user-friendly.
00:49:55You know this.
00:49:56But overall, truly, truly, well done.
00:50:04I'm proud of you.
00:50:06Professional boundaries, Mr. Whiteford.
00:50:09Sorry.
00:50:10I sometimes get carried away with talented teens.
00:50:17Well then, let's crunch some numbers, shall we?
00:50:20What are we looking at budget-wise?
00:50:22Hey, great job on today's pitch.
00:50:32It was a team effort.
00:50:33You still have some work to do, though?
00:50:35I'm looking forward to launching it.
00:50:37But then, let's non-stop.
00:50:39We're going to get some rest.
00:50:41Wow.
00:50:43You still had time to find the handsome lawyer.
00:50:46Wait.
00:50:47You knew about it.
00:50:48Ryan, you are the only guy who hasn't made a pass at me.
00:50:52I had my suspicions.
00:50:54I thought Barbara set us up for that reason, but she's clueless.
00:50:58Still hoping for a wedding.
00:51:01Um, I'll see you tomorrow.
00:51:03Absolutely.
00:51:04And hey, if you knew anything, especially about Jonathan, just ask.
00:51:09That is all behind me.
00:51:11Don't worry.
00:51:11Okay.
00:51:18Stalking now, Mr. Whiteford?
00:51:34Just a coincidence, Ms. Morris.
00:51:36See, um, I live here too.
00:51:39Yeah, right.
00:51:44Hey!
00:51:44Hey!
00:51:46Hey!
00:51:48Can you give me some space?
00:52:01Speaking neighborly.
00:52:05When did you move here?
00:52:07Because I was under the impression that this space housed one.
00:52:12Now it housed two.
00:52:13Oh.
00:52:18Oh, what a coincidence.
00:52:24I, I live here too.
00:52:27Guess what?
00:52:28My passcode is still Fiona.
00:52:30Is his passcode still Fiona?
00:52:32Stop.
00:52:34Why do you care?
00:52:35Oh.
00:52:44Doing the lights, Mabel.
00:52:46That's an early night.
00:52:47Rough day?
00:52:48Actually, it's one of the best days of my life.
00:52:52Really?
00:52:53What happened?
00:52:56Good night, Mabel.
00:52:57You need a ride with some Morris?
00:53:09No, full deal.
00:53:10I prefer to walk.
00:53:11Are you kidding?
00:53:12It's about to rain.
00:53:13Come on.
00:53:15Is he dead?
00:53:26He seemed really occupied yesterday.
00:53:30The DL was a quiet ride.
00:53:32Nope.
00:53:33Now I have a tip for your product, if you're interested.
00:53:36Okay, fine.
00:53:42What is it?
00:53:43The interface needs a better visual hierarchy.
00:53:45The uniform font size is causing confusion, but a little variation could help.
00:53:51You're right.
00:53:53We wanted simplicity, but maybe too much so.
00:53:56It's a good approach, but you need to experiment, but you've always been a rule-breaker, Mabel.
00:54:10Mr. Whiteford, it's urgent.
00:54:12Please come home.
00:54:13Your mother's condition is critical.
00:54:14Her condition worsened.
00:54:29We thought it would be best if you were here.
00:54:34Is there anything that could be done for her?
00:54:38We've done everything.
00:54:41Her vitals are going quickly.
00:54:43I'm so sorry.
00:54:43I'm going to get some medicine.
00:54:46Okay.
00:54:51Mom.
00:54:52Hey.
00:54:54I'm right here.
00:54:56John and Harry.
00:54:58Do you have anything?
00:54:59Is there anything we can get for you?
00:55:02I'm leaving you.
00:55:04No.
00:55:05No.
00:55:07You're fine.
00:55:08Okay, we're taking good care of you.
00:55:09My son.
00:55:10I'm truly sorry.
00:55:19You're the best mom I could ever have.
00:55:24I want you to be happy.
00:55:29I am happy.
00:55:30I'm happy.
00:55:31After Fiona, I saw how you suffered.
00:55:40I regret so many.
00:55:45I overlooked things after Fiona's death.
00:55:50And you changed so much.
00:55:56What do you mean, Mom?
00:55:58Just promise me you'll be happy.
00:56:01With Mabel or anyone else.
00:56:05Promise me.
00:56:06That it's time you learned the truth.
00:56:13About everything.
00:56:22Oh my god.
00:56:24It's official.
00:56:25My wife just died.
00:56:27Really?
00:56:27What happened?
00:56:29It was sudden.
00:56:31John and my wife just confirmed it.
00:56:33Are you okay?
00:56:35Um.
00:56:35I have to.
00:56:38Go.
00:56:39Take the day off.
00:56:40I have to.
00:56:59Facial recognition successful.
00:57:02Welcome, Mabel.
00:57:03Hey, so how can you stand, huh?
00:57:11So, I'm in.
00:57:16Why are you here?
00:57:23I saw the news.
00:57:26Are you okay?
00:57:28I'm in.
00:57:30Do you need anything?
00:57:31Do you want to talk?
00:57:31Why are you here?
00:57:34Is it because you care?
00:57:36I understand what it feels like to lose a parent.
00:57:39But that's not why you're here.
00:57:42You care.
00:57:43Don't you?
00:57:45I was concerned.
00:57:47But if you're fine, I should go.
00:57:48Please don't go.
00:57:50Please.
00:57:51Have you been drinking?
00:57:53Jonathan, this is so inappropriate.
00:57:54I'm leaving.
00:57:55Mabel, Mabel, listen.
00:57:55Listening.
00:57:57Mabel signing in.
00:57:58How can I help, Jonathan?
00:58:01Son.
00:58:06What is that?
00:58:09Hello, Miss Morris.
00:58:11I'm Mabel.
00:58:12An AI modeled after you.
00:58:14Mabel!
00:58:15Mabel, stop!
00:58:18Wait.
00:58:19Wait.
00:58:19I'm sorry.
00:58:26I'm sorry.
00:58:27This was my way of coping with your absence.
00:58:29It was never meant to be discovered like this.
00:58:33Jonathan.
00:58:33This is...
00:58:37This is too much.
00:58:40This isn't just obsession.
00:58:42This is unhealthy.
00:58:43I know.
00:58:44It's wrong.
00:58:47Please.
00:58:48I'll never bother you again.
00:58:49Just...
00:58:50Just...
00:58:51Give me some time and I'll go.
00:58:52I swear.
00:58:52Are you okay, Jonathan?
00:58:59Yes.
00:59:01Yes.
00:59:17You were right about the rain.
00:59:22Outstanding, Mabel.
00:59:38This product will be a hit.
00:59:43Know Mr. Whiteford today?
00:59:47Yes.
00:59:47He wished to come, but couldn't make it.
00:59:50He was caught up with family matters.
00:59:53Did you hear about his mother?
00:59:58Good morning.
01:00:01I'm here to announce the passing of my mother, Barbara Whiteford, due to a severe stroke.
01:00:10It's a challenging time for our family, and we appreciate your thoughts.
01:00:13While we mourn, I also need to address serious matters involving Julie Miller, a close associate of our family.
01:00:23Years ago, Fiona Miller, my then-girlfriend, and I developed a system named after her that laid the foundation for Whiteford Tech.
01:00:31Her untimely death, I've recently learned, was orchestrated by her sister, Julie Miller, with my mother's knowledge.
01:00:41Moreover, Julie Miller has been involved in other immoral acts.
01:00:48She hired gang members for violent acts and caused deep harm to someone close to my heart.
01:00:55I'm not seeking forgiveness for the family.
01:00:58I only want justice.
01:01:01Julie now stands trial for her actions.
01:01:03The Fiona system, pivotal in uncovering these truths, will now be decommissioned and made publicly available for the advancement of technology.
01:01:14It's time for fresh perspectives.
01:01:18I'm stepping down.
01:01:21Whiteford Tech will now be under NOVA, led by Ryan Anderson and Mabel Morse, whose leadership and vision I trust.
01:01:30This will be my last public appearance.
01:01:32All my shares in Whiteford Tech will be transferred to Mabel Morse.
01:01:38Future is in her hands.
01:01:43Did you know about this?
01:01:47So that's it.
01:01:49We are owners of the largest tech company in the country.
01:01:52Hey, Jonathan.
01:02:16Sup?
01:02:16Hey, why did you leave the company and all of your shares?
01:02:23What the...
01:02:24Too harsh.
01:02:27Facial recognition successful.
01:02:30Welcome, Mabel.
01:02:40Wait.
01:02:43Where's Jonathan?
01:02:44He has moved away.
01:02:48He is, I quote, giving you space.
01:02:53He moved?
01:02:55Where?
01:02:56I'm afraid I don't know.
01:03:00He really left everything behind.
01:03:03He said it would be for the best.
01:03:07He's right.
01:03:23Maybe it is for the best.
01:03:24I found the programmer that you've been looking for.
01:03:36Here's everything on him.
01:03:37The best we could dig up.
01:03:40Hey.
01:03:41You need to learn to take some more breaks.
01:03:43Setting the bar way too high for the rest of us.
01:03:45I'll slow down once we've got more skilled people like this one working for us.
01:03:54What kind of crystal looks to you.
01:04:13Facial recognition successful.
01:04:15Welcome, Mabel.
01:04:17Welcome, Mabel.
01:04:28Nice work, Jonathan.
01:04:30Mabel.
01:04:31Hi.
01:04:34How did you...
01:04:35Weeks ago, we discovered a mysterious programmer.
01:04:39Their work was outstanding.
01:04:40I just had to know who it was.
01:04:45Sorry.
01:04:46I, uh, got bored.
01:04:49I wanted something to do.
01:04:51Your coding gave you away.
01:04:53It felt familiar.
01:04:54Like you.
01:04:55So, the way the numbers and the figures went together, I don't know, it kind of felt romantic.
01:05:00Why did you leave everything behind?
01:05:05Don't you miss it?
01:05:08I wanted to fix my mistakes.
01:05:12To help you.
01:05:15I want you to be happy, Mabel.
01:05:19You left without saying goodbye.
01:05:20I know.
01:05:22I'm sorry.
01:05:24I knew you wouldn't forgive me if I left that.
01:05:26I needed to distance myself from you.
01:05:28It was the only way that I knew how to forgive you.
01:05:32Have you succeeded?
01:05:36I'm good.
01:05:43Julie.
01:05:46At Novatec, we offer competitive pay.
01:05:49And flexible schedules with remote opportunities and free meals.
01:05:56Sounds good.
01:05:57There's more.
01:05:59We have benefits, like honeymoon leave and child care support and fun company events.
01:06:08So, Jonathan Whiteford, how would you feel about joining Novatec?
01:06:15As an executive?
01:06:17No, as staff, but I would be thrilled to have you as a senior programmer.
01:06:23Pretty good offer.
01:06:24Also, there are no restrictions about relationships with colleagues.
01:06:35So, if you happen to like someone at work, it's cool.
01:06:42That's good to know.
01:06:42Goodgoodness.
01:06:46I don't know.
01:06:49I don't know.
01:06:56I don't know.
01:06:57I don't know.
01:06:59I don't know.
01:06:59I don't know.
01:07:00I don't know.
01:07:02You don't know.
01:07:02I don't know.
01:07:03You're degree love.
01:07:04Every day.
01:07:05The future.
