00:02:00so
00:02:07so
00:02:11Dad!
00:02:35Hey, buddy.
00:02:38What 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.
00:03:06The stone is way too big.
00:03:08It overwhelms the band, and the setting is wrong.
00:03:10It'll just snag on everything.
00:03:13My designs are perfectly fine.
00:03:15Fine isn't what couples remember on their wedding day.
00:03:17What 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.
00:04:03You think you can handle it?
00:04:07I 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.
00:04:23A wedding is the bride's most important day, and no one wants it ruined.
00:04:28Yeah.
00:04:30Right.
00:04:31So, let's talk about the design.
00:04:33I'm thinking something unique.
00:04:35Maybe both of our names engraved on the rings?
00:04:39Okay, we can do that, for sure.
00:04:40Um, what is your fiancé's name?
00:04:43Dean.
00:04:45Dean 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.
00:05:09For 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, I'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.
00:05:35Dad.
00:05:37Dad?
00:05:38When, when did you have a child?
00:05:44Is Michael you and Pauline's?
00:05:47How did you find out about it?
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.
00:06:09Sylvia.
00:06:11Today's the Morrison presentation.
00:06:13I, um, just wanted to let you know that
00:06:15you got this.
00:06:20Now if you'll excuse me.
00:06:23You don't have to shut me out, you know?
00:06:29That's exactly what I have to do.
00:06:37Dean.
00:06:38How dare she treat you like that?
00:06:50You 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.
00:06:58But 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.
00:07:20If you're done here, I've got work that speaks for itself.
00:07:28Oh, I'm counting on it.
00:07:41Good morning.
00:07:43My name is Sylvia Wilkins, and today I will be going over the design for the Morrison wedding.
00:07:47This is a scary post call.
00:08:06Sylvia.
00:08:06Actually, um, Sylvia and I have a little surprise for everyone before we begin.
00:08:19Um, 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 a surprise.
00:08:26Hey.
00:08:27Hey.
00:08:28Hey.
00:08:28Hey.
00:08:28Don't worry.
00:08:29We'll find them.
00:08:31Okay?
00:08:32Just tell me where you're gonna last saved the pilots.
00:08:48you and last saved the files and the computer
00:08:52see there's nothing there it's like the files just vanished somebody deleted them
00:09:10you need time to find at home
00:09:18maybe it's time that we go back to the beginning
00:09:26what do you mean
00:09:27we're so sorry for the delay we had a bit of a setback but i'm pretty sure you're gonna like this
00:09:44i'm gonna take you all back to where it all began
00:09:50that's our wedding ring i designed this ring three years ago they were meant for
00:10:06all the expectations and happiness before the wedding
00:10:12i designed i 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
00:10:34it's like i dreamed you up inside my head
00:10:42i thought that the picture birth
00:10:47fake love was only in grace
00:10:52yes i pulled you right from the page into reality
00:10:58feels like i'm falling deep into your gravity
00:11:02because it's like i dreamed you up
00:11:08Thank you, Sylvia.
00:11:32Sylvia.
00:11:38Olivia, please, we need to talk.
00:11:57No, I didn't mean to bring up the past, okay?
00:12:00I just, that Sketch was the only one that I had.
00:12:04I know, just open the door.
00:12:06Will you just leave me alone?
00:12:08I thought you were gone.
00:12:32I'm not going anywhere.
00:12:34I'm sorry, Sylvia, for leaving you at the altar.
00:12:37For everything I did, I 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.
00:12:55You think that saying all of this makes everything better?
00:12:59That it just erases what you did?
00:13:00No, no, nothing can erase it.
00:13:03But I'm still here.
00:13:04I'm still in love with you, Sylvia.
00:13:07I never stopped.
00:13:09Do you have any idea how I suffered all these years?
00:13:12How I missed you?
00:13:13I shouldn't feel this way.
00:13:17Carry the weight of the world on your shoulders.
00:13:29But don't let it make you older, they say.
00:13:35I don't want to see your face.
00:13:50I don't want to see your face.
00:13:54All my bones know their strength.
00:13:59I'll be brave and trying to wait.
00:14:19Fuck.
00:14:21What's wrong with me?
00:14:22I'm supposed to rise above Dean, or at least punch him out.
00:14:26Not this.
00:14:28Morning, Syl.
00:14:34This night was great, wasn't it?
00:14:36Um, Dean, let's, um...
00:14:41Let's not talk about this again.
00:14:43Or bring it up to anyone.
00:14:45What do you mean?
00:14:45I mean, we can't go back to how things were.
00:14:48Okay.
00:14:48We have to forget about whatever just happened between us, okay?
00:14:54Do you understand me?
00:14:56Sure.
00:14:57Okay.
00:14:59You have to go.
00:14:59Don't worry, Sylvia.
00:15:14Dean told me everything.
00:15:15We'll find out who stole your project.
00:15:17Oh, I know who did it.
00:15:18Who?
00:15:19I can prove it.
00:15:20Christine, will you hand over my design for the Morrison wedding, please?
00:15:32Are you crazy?
00:15:34I 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.
00:15:44Maybe you weren't careful enough with your memory stick.
00:15:50That's...
00:15:51That's funny.
00:15:52I 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.
00:15:59How 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.
00:16:08And Sylvia's hated me from the start.
00:16:12She wants to frame me because she thinks she's above everyone else.
00:16:18She wasn't even respecting Dean.
00:16:20Like, she thinks she's above everyone else.
00:16:24I don't think I'm above anyone.
00:16:26And I don't just throw out accusations freely.
00:16:29Not without good reason.
00:16:30You already exposed yourself.
00:16:33Christine.
00:16:37Why are you doing this to me?
00:16:40I trust Christine more.
00:16:42To be honest, she's always been nice.
00:16:44She must be lying.
00:16:46Look at her.
00:16:46Enough.
00:16:51Dean, come on.
00:16:52You...
00:16:53Drop the act.
00:16:55Christine.
00:17:00We're catching you off guard.
00:17:02This card isn't proof of guilt.
00:17:03But look at your recent submissions.
00:17:07You're near duplicates of Sylvia's early work.
00:17:10Clear plagiarism.
00:17:13Check her desk.
00:17:16And no, wait.
00:17:16You can't.
00:17:17You can't.
00:17:17Now, what else?
00:17:32I didn't mean to steal.
00:17:34She wasn't respecting him.
00:17:36I...
00:17:37I did it for you, Dean.
00:17:39Everything that I did was for you.
00:17:42Christine.
00:17:44You're fired.
00:17:46You just used my name to justify betrayal.
00:17:50And with a plagiarism and theft record,
00:17:53no reputable jeweler has will hire you again.
00:17:56Security, get her out of here.
00:17:58Hey.
00:18:14Thanks.
00:18:15I didn't expect you to be so decisive.
00:18:18I kind of expected you to go easy on Christine.
00:18:20Kindness only enables people like her.
00:18:24She almost destroyed your career.
00:18:26That's my red line.
00:18:28Well, thanks again.
00:18:33Are you really not going to talk to me still?
00:18:35Dean, I think it's better this way for both of us
00:18:37if we just keep it about work between us.
00:18:42Then what if it is about work?
00:18:44What?
00:18:47Well, you got your USB back.
00:18:49I wanted to review the design together.
00:18:51Are you being serious right now?
00:18:52I'm serious.
00:18:54It's excellent, but...
00:18:56It's not good enough.
00:18:58Not for you.
00:19:02Technically, it's perfect.
00:19:05But that's the problem.
00:19:09It's cold.
00:19:10It's delicate.
00:19:12Precise.
00:19:13But there's no joy.
00:19:15Ain't it?
00:19:17No romance.
00:19:19It's a ring.
00:19:20It's not a pull-up.
00:19:21No.
00:19:21It's a promise.
00:19:23People come to us for love.
00:19:26Not just a product.
00:19:28They want to feel something real.
00:19:31Promise?
00:19:32Do you think that I believe in that?
00:19:34I'm sorry if I lost my passion.
00:19:38Who do I have to thank for that, Dean?
00:19:39I can still feel that passion again.
00:19:46You know what?
00:19:47You're right.
00:19:48Yeah, maybe I should go on a date.
00:19:51A date?
00:19:52You said I need more passion.
00:19:54You said I need more passion.
00:20:01Hello.
00:20:05Sylvia Wilkins.
00:20:06Myra, nice to meet you.
00:20:07Nice to meet you as well.
00:20:09Enjoy the exhibit.
00:20:25Hey, are you Sylvia Wilkins?
00:20:26Your designs are incredible.
00:20:29My name is Jacob.
00:20:31I'm a graduate student in forensic genetics.
00:20:32Nice to meet you.
00:20:34I didn't realize that students studying forensic genetics were interested in gems.
00:20:40Yeah, you get the point.
00:20:41I have no idea about any of them, except that they're all expensive.
00:20:46So would you mind telling me a little bit about them?
00:20:50Who the hell is that guy?
00:20:52Absolutely.
00:20:55All of our gems, we actually do mine.
00:20:57Uh, we don't believe in lab growing our gems here, so...
00:21:01My thesis is on French genetics.
00:21:05Basically, solving mysteries through DNA, which sounds serious, but I'm the type that
00:21:09can turn the darkest crime scenes into stories to make my friends laugh.
00:21:12That's, that's impressive.
00:21:14Well, what about you?
00:21:16How do you usually work?
00:21:17Are you designers surrounded by these beautiful stones all the time?
00:21:20Oh, um...
00:21:22Well, I work in silence.
00:21:24I design sketches that try and capture love in cold stones and metals, so it's really
00:21:32not that exciting of a job.
00:21:35Well, there's a kind of magic in that, too.
00:21:37Transforming feelings into something tangible.
00:21:41It's like you're telling a story without words.
00:21:43Maybe.
00:21:44Or it's just a business.
00:21:46I don't buy that.
00:21:46You have to believe in what you're creating, otherwise it's just jewelry.
00:21:50Besides, that smile tells me you still believe.
00:21:55So, are you single?
00:22:01So, are you single?
00:22:04Hi.
00:22:07You seem to have a lot of questions, and I happen to be one of the organizers of this
00:22:11event.
00:22:11So, if you have any questions, just ask me.
00:22:15You seem like you need a rest.
00:22:16Have you been working with him?
00:22:17I'm fine.
00:22:19Is he your boyfriend?
00:22:20No.
00:22:20Yes.
00:22:21He's not.
00:22:21I was.
00:22:22He's my ex.
00:22:24Uh, dinner plans later?
00:22:25We actually have a lot of meetings that we can't miss.
00:22:29It sounds like your ex is using his power at work to interfere with your personal life.
00:22:34Isn't it getting a little late?
00:22:36You should probably go home since it's a school night.
00:22:39Because students have a little bit more energy, unlike some washed-up corporate has-been.
00:22:45So, any chance I could get your number?
00:22:49Really?
00:22:50That's your move?
00:22:51You got a better one?
00:22:53Oh, wait.
00:22:54You had yours.
00:22:55You blew it.
00:22:57You know nothing.
00:22:59About her.
00:23:00Not yet.
00:23:01After dinner's four.
00:23:02Guys, are we really doing this right now?
00:23:05What, are we in kindergarten?
00:23:11Jacob.
00:23:16Thanks.
00:23:17Call me.
00:23:20Don't worry.
00:23:21I'll treat her better than her ex.
00:23:29Sylvia, wait.
00:23:36Look, I know I shouldn't have jumped in.
00:23:39I look pathetic.
00:23:40But seeing you smile at him, I just couldn't stand it, okay?
00:23:45You couldn't stand it?
00:23:49You couldn't stand that?
00:23:51But you could leave me standing alone in front of a hundred guests?
00:23:54If you care so much now, Dean, why didn't you show up on our wedding day?
00:24:01I'm not that weak girl you left behind now.
00:24:04So just tell me the reason.
00:24:05Were you afraid of marriage or did you just not love me enough?
00:24:08No, I wasn't afraid.
00:24:09Then why?
00:24:10Look, I had my reasons.
00:24:12I was falling apart.
00:24:13I just, I can't explain it to you.
00:24:16Still, after all these years, you say that you were falling apart, but that can't be the full story.
00:24:22So just give me the reason.
00:24:26You know, I used to dream every night that you would come back, whisper that you were sorry, that you still love me.
00:24:40But now I'll stop waiting.
00:24:42I don't want your guilt or your memories.
00:24:44I just want the truth.
00:24:45So either you tell me or I'm gone.
00:24:52Sylvia, there's only one truth.
00:25:01I never stop loving you.
00:25:04Do you think that I would believe that?
00:25:06You're a liar, Dean.
00:25:08Please.
00:25:09Don't go.
00:25:10I'll tell you everything.
00:25:16It's because I wasn't worthy of you.
00:25:19I don't understand.
00:25:20We both came from the same place.
00:25:24We both graduated from design schools.
00:25:26We, we had the same dream.
00:25:29We even met at a design competition.
00:25:31Yes.
00:25:31And you defeated me.
00:25:33You stood there with your design.
00:25:36So bold.
00:25:37So impossible.
00:25:40Everyone called it reckless.
00:25:42They also said that it was too risky.
00:25:43You were the only person that stood in front of all of them and defended me.
00:25:47You were the bravest person in the room.
00:25:51You always have been.
00:25:53It was never about our dreams or your brilliance.
00:25:58The problem was, I made a huge mistake.
00:26:03And while you were rising, brilliant, unstoppable, I was falling apart.
00:26:09And I thought you'd be much better off without me.
00:26:14I never thought that for a second.
00:26:16But if you keep running, I'm not going to keep waiting for you.
00:26:19Someone else is going to come into my life.
00:26:22And I'm going to let them.
00:26:23I'm going to date them.
00:26:24Maybe sleep with them.
00:26:26Who knows, maybe I'll even marry them.
00:26:27Don't say that.
00:26:35Don't talk about being with another man.
00:26:38You left.
00:26:40You made room in your life for someone else.
00:26:42Just hearing it, it tears me apart.
00:26:48I know I may be selfish, but I can't stand the thought of you being with someone else.
00:26:54I can't breathe when I date you're in.
00:26:58I know he's still hiding something.
00:27:01But when he kisses me, I just forget to care.
00:27:20Oh my God.
00:27:24Oh my God.
00:27:54Hey, if it's urgent, I can wait.
00:28:14I know.
00:28:21I'm sorry, Sylvia.
00:28:23Dean.
00:28:23I have to go.
00:28:24What's going on?
00:28:28If you walk out now, don't come back.
00:28:40I owe you the truth.
00:28:46Pauline and I dated seven years ago.
00:28:50It was short-lived.
00:28:51It was short-lived and we broke up way before you and I met.
00:28:56After a few years, when we were supposed to get married, she came back.
00:29:03She said she said she had a three-year-old son and that I was the father and that I was shocked and I didn't believe her until she showed me the eternity test.
00:29:20Look, I'm about to marry her.
00:29:22Look, I'm about to marry someone else.
00:29:26I'll support Michael in every way I can, but I won't marry you.
00:29:32You think this is about money, you think this is about money, you think this is about money, Dean?
00:29:33You think this is about money, Dean?
00:29:34Your son has early signs of autism.
00:29:38What?
00:29:38Yeah.
00:29:39Yeah.
00:29:39He eats by himself, he talks to himself, he's a total freak.
00:29:45You want to know why, Dean?
00:29:47Because he's never had a father.
00:29:49So don't expect to have a family with anyone else.
00:29:55You're stuck with me.
00:29:56I later realized that Michael's autism, it was purely because of Pauline's neglect.
00:30:04After three years with me, he talks, he 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 is that I didn't leave our wedding because I didn't love you.
00:30:26I left because I thought I had to take responsibility.
00:30:31So then, what 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 because of Michael.
00:30:50But also, what?
00:30:52But what?
00:30:53Extremely unbearable.
00:30:54Because I thought I lost you forever.
00:30:58And then you showed up at Sterling.
00:31:02It felt like a second chance.
00:31:05But 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, but I had to take care of Michael.
00:31:18I had to be a father.
00:31:19So, you're going to marry Pauline and live a lie just to be under the illusion of having a perfect life?
00:31:28I know I sound pathetic, but I thought I lost you.
00:31:34And then you came back and I started dreaming again.
00:31:37You don't get to dream with me.
00:31:39I spent years burying that day.
00:31:44Trying to forget about the ring, the flowers, the empty aisle.
00:31:49Sylvia.
00:31:50Just tell Michael the truth one day.
00:31:52Goodbye, Dean.
00:31:59Goodbye, Dean.
00:31:59You're home.
00:32:22I missed you.
00:32:23Where's Michael?
00:32:27Oh, I was thinking about hiring a nanny for Michael since we're doing so well financially.
00:32:33Why not?
00:32:34Someone to watch Michael while we spend more time together.
00:32:37You came back and instead of building something with him, you 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, just spend it with Michael.
00:32:49You're such a fool, Dean.
00:32:53Michael isn't even your son.
00:32:56You've been raising a child that 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 isn't an option.
00:33:06Dean.
00:33:08Just stop working.
00:33:09I can give you a massage.
00:33:11No, thanks.
00:33:16I saw your designer today.
00:33:19What's your name?
00:33:20Sylvia Wilkins?
00:33:24What?
00:33:26What were you doing at Sterling?
00:33:28I was designing our wedding rings, of course.
00:33:30I asked Wilkins to handle it.
00:33:32Are you out of your mind?
00:33:33I'll handle the design, okay?
00:33:36You leave Sylvia out of this.
00:33:37It's because of her, isn't it?
00:33:40Don't worry.
00:33:42She seems nice enough.
00:33:43I'll befriend her.
00:33:44I'll befriend her.
00:33:49My 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, and 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.
00:34:15I'll go with you.
00:34:16Just wait, Dean.
00:34:18She'll never stand between us.
00:34:29You 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.
00:34:41I 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, I don't need to know the details of your entire love story to design your dream.
00:34:51Really?
00:34:53Isn't that what designers do?
00:34:57Funny how some things never change.
00:35:00You're still just to 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.
00:35:23All of our designs are original.
00:35:24You just asked for options?
00:35:26Options, yes.
00:35:28Not mediocrity.
00:35:29This design was based after ancient filigree.
00:35:32It's really interesting.
00:35:33Shut up.
00:35:34Honestly, you make me wonder.
00:35:37I mean, it's no secret you have a talent for making men pity you.
00:35:41Is that how you got this job?
00:35:42Say that again and I swear...
00:35:43What?
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.
00:35:51What do you think your clients?
00:35:52Loving couples, no less.
00:35:54But think about their designer being a homewrecker.
00:35:56I 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.
00:36:17Just don't be too sure you can keep it.
00:36:21Oh, I'm sure.
00:36:28So, 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?
00:36:43Wait, you want...
00:36:44You want that one?
00:36:46It's a bit tacky, but...
00:36:48It'll do.
00:36:49Sorry, that one is for...
00:36:51For you and Dean's wedding?
00:36:53Yes.
00:36:54Well, that wedding's over.
00:36:56So 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?
00:37:17I'll never let you have it.
00:37:19Not as long as I'm alive.
00:37:22You 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.
00:37:36No, Dean is a man of responsibility.
00:37:39The 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.
00:37:48I pity the life that you two will build together.
00:37:53What are you doing, Pauline?
00:37:55Dean?
00:37:56I'm your fiancé.
00:37:57How can you side with your ex over me?
00:38:00Sylvia's my designer now.
00:38:01No one, no one, no one is allowed to hurt her.
00:38:06Not while I'm here.
00:38:12Dean?
00:38:13Help 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, I'll give you what you want.
00:38:41Money, the name, but you need to be a real mother to Michael.
00:38:45That's our deal.
00:38:46And 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 and no one, especially her, is going to ruin it.
00:39:10Find that woman.
00:39:13Sylvia Wilkins.
00:39:14Sylvia Wilkins.
00:39:16Teach her a lesson.
00:39:18Some things aren't hers to touch.
00:39:38Sylvia, about Pauline's wedding ring project, I reassigned it to someone else.
00:39:43You don't have to do that anymore.
00:39:45Understood.
00:39:45Sylvia, I...
00:39:49Dean, we talked about this.
00:39:50You're the boss, I'm the employee.
00:39:53It's better for both of us if we just keep it that way, okay?
00:39:56You're right.
00:39:58Get home safe.
00:39:59Mathé, man.
00:40:19You're the boss, dude.
00:40:21I'm the boss, you're the boss.
00:40:23You're the boss.
00:40:24You're the boss.
00:40:25It's better for both of us.
00:40:26Let's go.
00:40:56Where do you think you are going, sweetheart?
00:41:10I don't know you.
00:41:12I don't know you.
00:41:14Please, just don't touch me.
00:41:16Calm down.
00:41:17Calm down.
00:41:18Let us remind you.
00:41:24You owe somebody.
00:41:25It was very important.
00:41:27And I wanted to share to remind you.
00:41:32This is about my debt.
00:41:35I don't know who said you, but I swear I'm working on it, okay?
00:41:40It's not about the money.
00:41:41You pissed the person off.
00:41:49Helene?
00:42:03Get in.
00:42:04Come on.
00:42:16Survey, are you okay?
00:42:17Don't.
00:42:17You don't get to care about me anymore, okay?
00:42:20You're marrying Pauline.
00:42:21You don't get to care about me.
00:42:24Even if I'm marrying her, I can't ignore your safety.
00:42:28You know what they said?
00:42:29They said...
00:42:30They told me you messed with the wrong person.
00:42:35They didn't say her name, but I didn't know that they were talking about Pauline.
00:42:41Forget I said anything, though.
00:42:43She's the mother of your child.
00:42:44Well, she doesn't get a free pass for that.
00:42:46And no one gets to hurt you.
00:42:49No, while I'm still breathing.
00:42:56You're home late.
00:42:57Don't tell me you were with your little designer again.
00:42:59Pauline, do 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.
00:43:26One incident.
00:43:28Just one.
00:43:30And the deal's off.
00:43:31No money, no wedding, nothing.
00:43:36Sweetie, come on.
00:43:45Okay, of course.
00:43:47We'll protect your designer.
00:43:49I have nothing to hide.
00:43:54You think this scares me?
00:43:55You just handed me a clock, Dean.
00:43:58And she's already running out of time.
00:44:11What's up, kiddo?
00:44:13You're supposed to be in bed now.
00:44:15Dad!
00:44:16Benaddy, if she doesn't give me dinner, I'm hungry.
00:44:22Wait, 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.
00:44:43I'll pick him up myself.
00:44:43All right.
00:44:52I'll see you tomorrow.
00:44:54I promise.
00:44:56Just be a man tonight, okay?
00:44:58Dad, why can't Sylvia be my mom?
00:45:02Sylvia isn't your real mom, sweetheart.
00:45:06Your real mom is...
00:45:07Colleen.
00:45:08But she doesn't like me.
00:45:11She...
00:45:12She 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.
00:45:20How I wish I could give Michael someone warm.
00:45:24Someone real.
00:45:26But Sylvia deserves a life free from this.
00:45:28Even 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?
00:46:18You really think I can't destroy her...
00:46:21Without touching her?
00:46:27Hello.
00:46:28I have some interesting information on a woman named Sylvia Wilkins.
00:46:45She owes money.
00:46:47A lot.
00:46:49And you'll be very interested once you find out where she works.
00:46:53Once your reputation crashes, that contract won't mean a damn thing.
00:47:13Hi.
00:47:15Can you tell me what's going on?
00:47:17No, this...
00:47:22This can't be real.
00:47:25We 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 cancelled on you this morning.
00:47:36No one wants you designing their rings anymore.
00:47:38Sylvia, Sylvia, is it true you defaulted on your dad's?
00:47:53Did 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.
00:48:01These are lies.
00:48:04Anyone caught spreading them will face legal action from Sterling Designs.
00:48:31You 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.
00:49:00You'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.
00:49:30Pauline, if this is true, then she didn't just try to hurt Sylvia.
00:49:35She wanted to destroy her.
00:49:37Why 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.
00:50:13You just loved the brand.
00:50:14The name.
00:50:15The lifestyle.
00:50:17If 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.
00:50:29You're going to tell them everything you did.
00:50:31Or you walk away with nothing.
00:50:35No 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.
00:51:02They'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.
00:51:34Um, I 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 and 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?
00:52:31Dean did all that for me?
00:52:34Ladies and gents, may I want to thank you all for being here tonight.
00:52:43I have one final announcement to make.
00:52:46I will be officially stepping down from my position as director of Sterling Designs.
00:52:51And 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?
00:53:53Detective Parker, I decided to bring these to you personally.
00:53:59These documents clearly show Pauline orchestrated the smear campaign.
00:54:03She's the one behind it all.
00:54:06Wait, what is this?
00:54:08That 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?
00:54:37You 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.
00:54:54It was all a lie.
00:54:55I have to find him, before it's too late.
00:54:57I heard you quit your job and handed everything over to Sylvia.
00:55:06What a ridiculous rumor.
00:55:08It's true.
00:55:09You quit?
00:55:10Are you insane?
00:55:12Nothing's changed.
00:55:17We're still getting married.
00:55:19Bullshit.
00:55:20Without your job, without your salary, you mean nothing to me.
00:55:24How dare you just quit?
00:55:26I 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.
00:55:34Dean.
00:55:35Dean.
00:55:40This DNA test?
00:55:41Look, 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.
00:55:57That document is fake.
00:55:59Michael isn't my son.
00:56:04Oh, hey.
00:56:05Hey.
00:56:06Are you okay?
00:56:13Hey.
00:56:17Dean.
00:56:20What happened?
00:56:24You're okay.
00:56:26Everything's over.
00:56:27What?
00:56:27Pauline's ex.
00:56:29He's, um, he's a criminal.
00:56:31He's in jail now, but he's, um, Michael's his son.
00:56:36Pauline ran away.
00:56:37She, she used Michael to trap me.
00:56:41Wait, so, so where is Pauline?
00:56:45I have enough evidence to put her behind bars.
00:56:51She didn't even take Michael with her.
00:56:55To her, he means nothing.
00:56:58So, 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.
00:57:10That'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.
00:57:20Only 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.
00:57:33Because 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.
00:57:54Hello, hey.
00:57:55Sylvia, you, you're burning up.
00:57:58I guess I'm biting more than just lies.
00:58:09Jacob helped you with the DNA test?
00:58:13Yeah, he, um, he helped me with the investigation.
00:58:18He's a nice guy.
00:58:19Yeah, he is.
00:58:21I guess he's not the right person for you.
00:58:24You guys barely dated.
00:58:25Come on.
00:58:28Jacob and I are just friends.
00:58:31Plus, I never got jealous of Pauline.
00:58:35Yeah, I was reckless with her once.
00:58:37Quickly realize she's not the one.
00:58:42You are the only woman I've ever really loved.
00:59:07I'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.
00:59:29But I guess the team misses you already.
00:59:35And Michael said he misses you, too.
00:59:45Hello?
00:59:46Mom?
00:59:46You'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.
01:00:01Dean never stopped loving me.
01:00:03He was just weighed down by guilt and responsibility.
01:00:05Sylvia, where are you?
01:00:19Sylvia.
