00:20:27Mom, I am not bringing a date to the wedding.
00:20:41That I'm focused on work, that I don't need to parade around a stranger.
00:20:48Delaney, Mom, she's my ex for a reason.
00:20:57Actually, you know what, I think I found a date you're really gonna like, I gotta go.
00:21:27What you wanna do, tell me what you like.
00:21:33What you wanna do, tell me what you like.
00:21:35Just stay apart, baby, I'm gonna get you married.
00:21:38What you wanna do, tell me what you like.
00:21:42What you wanna do, tell me what you like.
00:21:46Looking for something?
00:21:48A date to my sister's wedding.
00:21:51I'll double your best payday, and I'll even let you pick our fake backstory.
00:21:56Lucky for you, I do escort work on the side.
00:22:07Give my agency a call.
00:22:09I'm yours, so long as you pay.
00:22:11What you wanna do, tell me what you like.
00:22:15What you wanna do, tell me what you like.
00:22:18What you wanna do, tell me what you like.
00:22:20Just stay apart, baby, I'mma get you married.
00:22:23What you wanna do, tell me what you like.
00:22:25What you wanna do, tell me what you like.
00:22:29Who-
00:22:29Piper?
00:22:31That's me.
00:22:33You must be Tate.
00:22:34Thanks for meeting me at the service entrance.
00:22:36You must be Tate.
00:22:37Thanks for meeting me at the service entrance.
00:22:40The agency filled you in, yes?
00:22:42You need to be at the top of your game tonight.
00:22:45My mother will be watching me like a hawk.
00:22:47Hopefully, with you there, she won't be trying to set me up with anyone.
00:22:50Of course, Mr. Young.
00:22:51You can trust me. I'm a professional.
00:22:53Well, I mean, you're an escort.
00:22:56It doesn't exactly require an MBA.
00:23:00And hiring an escort doesn't exactly require more than a dick and a credit card.
00:23:04Really, just a credit card.
00:23:06That's funny. I thought I paid for a date, not an attitude.
00:23:10Two for the price of one. Lucky you.
00:23:22So, what's the story of how we met?
00:23:25You said you're a professional, right? Make something up.
00:23:29If we want to pull this off, we're going to have to have a story.
00:23:32You said yourself that your mother's going to be watching.
00:23:35Unless you want me to tell her the truth.
00:23:39Look, I realize that some of your other clients may find those kinds of jokes charming.
00:23:44But I need you to take this seriously, okay?
00:23:47My reputation's at stake here.
00:23:48You know, on my way over here, I was wondering, why does Tate Young, the most eligible bachelor in the city, need an escort?
00:23:57And I'm starting to understand why.
00:24:00Tate!
00:24:00You came!
00:24:01It's your rehearsal dinner. What'd you expect?
00:24:04Well, you know, I seem to find some excuse.
00:24:09And you are?
00:24:09It's nice to meet you, Ariana. I'm Piper.
00:24:17So?
00:24:18How did you two meet?
00:24:21Don't worry, babe. I'll tell her.
00:24:22I hosted a local artist charity auction last month, and the Young Family Foundation bid on a painting for their lobby.
00:24:30I supervised the installation, and Tate was there.
00:24:34The rest is history.
00:24:36Wow.
00:24:36Tate never usually spends time at the foundation.
00:24:40It was our father's passion project, but Tate tends to get his priorities mixed up.
00:24:44Oh.
00:24:46Mom's looking for you. I told her you were over here, so good luck.
00:24:50I'm gonna go make out with Dave.
00:24:57You know, I gotta say, it's a little scary how good of a liar you are.
00:25:02Oh, Tate.
00:25:03We've got to work on your trust issues.
00:25:05That whole story was true.
00:25:07Aside from meeting you, of course.
00:25:10Well, you're about to see where I got those trust issues from.
00:25:15Hello.
00:25:16I don't believe you're on our guest list.
00:25:19Mom, come on.
00:25:20Is that anyone who treat my date?
00:25:23It's lovely to meet you, Mrs. Young.
00:25:25I was just telling your daughter that you bid on a painting at a local art auction I held last month.
00:25:31You hosted that?
00:25:32That painting spoke to me immediately.
00:25:35And I was especially intrigued with how the artist signed it.
00:25:39No name.
00:25:40Just for Elizabeth.
00:25:42A dedication to the artist's mother.
00:25:44Must be nice for a mother to feel appreciated.
00:25:49I tried to find the artist, but if that artist appreciates their anonymity...
00:25:54Oh.
00:25:55And how about you, dear?
00:25:57Do you appreciate your anonymity as well?
00:26:00I'm an open book.
00:26:02Ask me anything.
00:26:03Oh.
00:26:04Where did you grow up?
00:26:06New York.
00:26:07Did you attend college?
00:26:09Princeton.
00:26:10College and graduate school for my MFA.
00:26:13Whoa.
00:26:14Poor dear.
00:26:15You must be drowning in student debt.
00:26:18Actually, my family didn't have to take out any loans, thank goodness.
00:26:21Oh.
00:26:21So you're comfortable.
00:26:23My mother was at the top of her field, so yes, we were comfortable.
00:26:27I see.
00:26:29We'll all have to have lunch together.
00:26:31Um, my mother is unfortunately no longer with us.
00:26:35All right, okay.
00:26:38Enough with the third degree.
00:26:40I think Piper deserves a breather.
00:26:42I'll give her a tour of the house.
00:26:45Nice meeting you.
00:26:47You too.
00:26:55Okay, so we've established that you're an enormous dork, which is probably why you have
00:27:02a hard time with the ladies.
00:27:03I prefer to focus on my work.
00:27:06Hmm.
00:27:07You know they have support groups for that kind of thing.
00:27:10Stop.
00:27:11You sound like my mother.
00:27:12She's been going to extremes to try to get me to settle down.
00:27:16Oh.
00:27:16What kind of extremes?
00:27:18Trying to get me back together with my ex.
00:27:21Speaking of the...
00:27:22Hey, baby, I missed you.
00:27:25Delaney, this is...
00:27:27Piper, his girlfriend.
00:27:30Delaney Hughes.
00:27:31His first love.
00:27:33Is that right?
00:27:35See, you're still trying to replace me, huh?
00:27:37What app did you find this one on?
00:27:39Piper is in the arts.
00:27:41That's where we met.
00:27:43And Delaney here is a lawyer at the firm.
00:27:45I see.
00:27:45That's not all I am, and you know it.
00:27:47We dated all throughout high school and college.
00:27:50And then we broke up.
00:27:51Hmm?
00:27:52Delaney, why are you here?
00:27:53Oh, don't be like that.
00:27:54You know Josie and I have always been close.
00:27:57Why, I'm practically family, and who knows?
00:28:00Maybe someday I will be.
00:28:01Delaney, what are you doing here?
00:28:03Thank God I came, right?
00:28:05I mean, it doesn't look like there was much of a turnout.
00:28:07We kept the guest list intimate.
00:28:09We didn't want anything to...
00:28:11Expensive?
00:28:11I mean, this family is worth millions.
00:28:14I am sad that they couldn't bring you a decent wedding.
00:28:16If your father were alive to see his daughter...
00:28:18Delaney!
00:28:19Yes?
00:28:20You're drunk.
00:28:22I'll call you a car.
00:28:23Don't be silly.
00:28:26Go, Delaney.
00:28:27I didn't invite you here.
00:28:28Your mother did.
00:28:29Well, it's not her wedding, is it?
00:28:31Car's five minutes away.
00:28:33Feel free to wait outside.
00:28:34You should learn to stay out of my business.
00:28:37Otherwise, I might start sniffing around yours.
00:28:39I hope this isn't too forward, but can we be best friends already?
00:28:51Not too forward at all.
00:28:53Sorry about Delaney.
00:28:54It's okay.
00:28:55Or it will be, as long as you keep this girl around.
00:29:03I meant what I said earlier.
00:29:05If we're going to get through tonight, we have to get to know one another.
00:29:07Your family's not going to stop crying.
00:29:12Okay, fine.
00:29:15I graduated from Columbia, summa cum laude.
00:29:18Interned at Goldman Sachs.
00:29:20Became the youngest CEO in the firm's history.
00:29:23Made the Forbes 30 under 30 list.
00:29:25And now, I'm expected to carry on a tradition of excellence.
00:29:29Success.
00:29:32Boring.
00:29:34Oh, success is boring to you?
00:29:37I can find all that stuff on Google.
00:29:39I want to know who you really are.
00:29:42Okay.
00:29:44I'm good at billiards.
00:29:46Oh, God.
00:29:47Just call it pool, like a normal person.
00:29:50Pools are for swimming.
00:29:51Wow.
00:29:52Having a life of privilege really did a number on you, huh?
00:29:54Privilege is subjective.
00:29:58Well, money's not.
00:29:59And that makes all of the other problems a whole lot easier.
00:30:04Oh.
00:30:06What's this?
00:30:07Absolutely not.
00:30:09It does not say no escorts.
00:30:15Oh.
00:30:16A, B, honor roll.
00:30:25So you're a huge nerd.
00:30:26Briefly.
00:30:29I loved space, anyway.
00:30:31What the hell happened?
00:30:33What do you mean?
00:30:34Based on my research, I couldn't find a single photo where you actually looked happy.
00:30:39And that Forbes 30 under 30 profile.
00:30:42It was thoughtful.
00:30:44Introspective.
00:30:46Mildly suicidal.
00:30:47Definitely depressing.
00:30:52Fine.
00:30:53There was this space camp that I begged my parents to attend.
00:30:58Finally, they agreed the summer before I went to high school.
00:31:02But, uh, while I was gone, my, uh, my father passed away.
00:31:08I'm so sorry for your loss.
00:31:10After that, I guess I stopped looking up at the stars.
00:31:17That's where he was, you know?
00:31:20Instead of down here with us.
00:31:21Are you okay?
00:31:34Are you okay?
00:31:41I should, uh, get back to the party before my mother comes looking.
00:31:43So you're coming to the wedding tomorrow, right?
00:31:52I don't work multi-day jobs.
00:31:55Plus, I don't think I should.
00:31:56Your family is way too involved.
00:31:59It's too complicated.
00:32:00I thought you said you were a professional.
00:32:04You'll have to make up an excuse.
00:32:07Or give them my apologies.
00:32:09I'm sorry, Tate.
00:32:11Really.
00:32:14I'll double your rate.
00:32:17And I'll do whatever you say.
00:32:20Open up as much as necessary.
00:32:22You don't want to keep lying to your family, Tate.
00:32:25I mean, what's your big plan here?
00:32:27You know, for once, I'm not trying to strategize ten steps ahead.
00:32:30I know what I want right now.
00:32:32I'll talk to the agency.
00:32:38See if they can make arrangements.
00:32:44Thank you, Piper.
00:32:46Don't thank me yet.
00:32:49Look, I gotta go.
00:32:54Um...
00:33:02Whenever you're awake, I miss you.
00:33:27Yeah, the next two nights?
00:33:38Is Renee available?
00:33:41She's just so good with all the medications.
00:33:45Oh, good.
00:33:47Please tell her that I'll have my room ready for her.
00:33:57Uh...
00:33:58Oh, good.
00:33:59I...

00:35:52Hello
00:36:01There you are
00:36:02Sorry I couldn't hear the gate
00:36:05It was open
00:36:07But I'm here
00:36:08And having a colossally bad hair day
00:36:12Okay well you can't wear a hat to the wedding
00:36:15It can't be that bad
00:36:18Let me see it
00:36:19It's that bad
00:36:20No one can see
00:36:22Show me
00:36:23I'm sorry
00:36:32I'm sorry
00:36:32Wow
00:36:34What are you doing?
00:36:40Just trust me okay
00:36:41I grew up with a sister
00:36:42So how did this happen anyway?
00:36:46I fell asleep painting
00:36:49Which I haven't done since I was a kid
00:36:52I'm surprised you had the energy to paint after everything yesterday
00:36:56I was inspired
00:36:58I know what you mean
00:37:01You know we have staff for that sort of thing
00:37:10Yes
00:37:10And I've seen children set up a tea party neater than this
00:37:13You're in a good mood
00:37:16It's a good day
00:37:18It's Piper isn't it
00:37:20I was skeptical
00:37:22But I see how happy she makes you
00:37:25Mom
00:37:26Please don't make a big deal out of this okay
00:37:28Your father would have liked her
00:37:31I like her too
00:37:35Hey
00:37:38What are you doing with those flowers?
00:37:48Ready?
00:38:07Dave
00:38:08When we first met we agreed we felt like teenagers again
00:38:11Energized
00:38:13Invincible
00:38:15But as we fell in love
00:38:18I felt more like a little kid again
00:38:19Full of wonder
00:38:21And hope
00:38:23I had absolute faith in you
00:38:26Because I felt absolutely cherished
00:38:28Just like I did when I was small
00:38:30My father taught me that unconditional love was possible
00:38:35And I know you're the only man
00:38:39He'd trust his little girl to
00:38:41Because you love all versions of me
00:38:45Unconditional
00:38:48And I vow to love you just the same
00:38:52Young or old
00:38:55Richer, poorer
00:38:57In sickness and in health
00:39:01Forever
00:39:03Bullshit
00:39:07You were absolutely crying
00:39:09I was not
00:39:10Okay I may have shed a tear
00:39:12But she's my baby sister
00:39:13And she was getting married
00:39:14I think I'm entitled to
00:39:15Oh my god
00:39:16Okay if you make this a big deal Piper
00:39:18I swear
00:39:18No no no
00:39:19Not that
00:39:19Is that
00:39:21Sebastian Rockwell
00:39:22The art critic
00:39:23I'm kind of obsessed with him
00:39:25Hey Bash
00:39:26Tate
00:39:27No
00:39:27Tate
00:39:30Beautiful ceremony
00:39:32Thank you so much my friend
00:39:33Sebastian I want you to meet someone
00:39:34This is Piper Manning
00:39:36It's so nice to meet you Mr. Rothwell
00:39:38I've been reading your writing for years
00:39:41That piece you wrote on the Edward Hopper retrospective at the Whitney
00:39:46Make me cry
00:39:48You're too kind
00:39:49Are you an artist yourself?
00:39:52I'm a painter
00:39:53Send me some photos of your work
00:39:55I'd love to know more about the woman
00:39:57Who stole Tate Young's heart
00:39:58Excuse me
00:40:02I have to take this
00:40:03Connect us
00:40:04So
00:40:24Did you save a dance for me?
00:40:27I don't dance
00:40:28What?
00:40:30No
00:40:30Ariana said everyone had to dance
00:40:33And that includes you and me
00:40:34You don't want to piss off the bride do you?
00:40:52How'd you get so good at this?
00:40:54I've attended way too many of these formal events
00:40:56To have not picked up a thing or two
00:40:57Oh
00:40:59Oh
00:41:00Is that your foot?
00:41:03How are you so bad at this?
00:41:05Dancing is not one of my skills
00:41:07So how did you get into it?
00:41:11Escorted
00:41:12I needed help with my mom's medical bills
00:41:16And the pay was great
00:41:18And I didn't mind escaping my reality from time to time
00:41:23Turns out
00:41:26When you're not born into a multi-million dollar family
00:41:29Life's kind of hard
00:41:30So having a concierge doctor isn't the norm?
00:41:33I was kind of hoping that this would be my last gig
00:41:38I want to spend more time at home
00:41:41Get a remote job or something
00:41:44Job is a job
00:41:45There's nothing wrong with doing what it takes to survive
00:41:48But for what it's worth
00:41:51I hope I'm your last assignment too
00:41:54How about a photo of the happy couple?
00:42:01Get cozy
00:42:02Come on, Tate
00:42:05Give her a kiss
00:42:06You up clean?
00:42:28Okay
00:42:29Have a good evening, little birds
00:42:31Stay with me, Tate
00:42:33I hope I can escort you
00:42:46We don't have to
00:42:48I just want to spend more time with you
00:42:52Please
00:43:01Is it me?
00:43:12Uh, sure
00:43:13Do you have a shirt for me to wear?
00:43:28Right
00:43:29Uh, of course
00:43:30It was a gift from my dad
00:43:38Oh
00:43:39Are you sure you want me to wear it?
00:43:43Don't be silly
00:43:43Looks good on you
00:43:50Okay, who's being silly now?
00:43:54I was trying to be respectful
00:43:56I feel respected
00:43:58Now, can we sleep in the bed?
00:44:02Like adults?
00:44:06Hardwood floor, huh?
00:44:08Honestly
00:44:09You're stiff enough as it is
00:44:11Tate?
00:44:24Yeah?
00:44:27I was just
00:44:29Seeing if you were awake
00:44:31You can't sleep?
00:44:36Not really
00:44:45Not really
00:44:45You?
00:44:48No
00:44:50Everything is
00:44:55Racing
00:44:57Is this okay?
00:45:11Everything is racing for me, too
00:45:12Is this okay?
00:45:25Okay
00:45:27Basically
00:45:30The first time
00:45:31This time
00:45:32You can Heaven
00:45:33If you're alone
00:45:35Have you seen another
00:45:36You're too
00:45:36I don't know
00:45:39Like and I have
00:45:40And if you're
00:45:41You're too
00:45:43I don't know
00:45:44You're too
00:45:44E ku
00:45:45And if I don't
00:45:46And you're too
00:45:49You're too
00:45:50I'm feeling better.
00:45:52I'm feeling better.
00:45:54I'm feeling better.
00:45:58Mmm.
00:46:00Good.
00:46:20Wow.
00:46:22Your dad was a babe.
00:46:24What happened to you?
00:46:26Okay, okay.
00:46:28I'm kidding. You're a babe, too.
00:46:30Alright, come on. Let me see a picture of your mom.
00:46:40Oh my god.
00:46:42She was stunning.
00:46:44You really miss her, don't you?
00:46:46I know it sounds weird, but...
00:46:48I really miss her playing the piano.
00:46:52I used to come home from school and I could hear it all the way from our building hallway.
00:46:58Anytime I heard that music, I knew that she was happy.
00:47:02I had to sell it.
00:47:06The piano.
00:47:08When she got sick.
00:47:10I haven't forgiven myself since then.
00:47:14I see some of your paintings sometime.
00:47:20You really don't spend enough time at your family's foundation.
00:47:24You've been talking to my mother, haven't you?
00:47:26The painting she bought?
00:47:28For Elizabeth?
00:47:30It's mine.
00:47:32It was for my mom.
00:47:34You're incredible.
00:47:38You're incredible.
00:47:48Okay.
00:47:52So is it like this with all your other clients?
00:47:54Not usually.
00:47:58This feels...
00:48:00personal.
00:48:02Yeah, for me too.
00:48:04Then me...
00:48:06working for you creates a problematic power dynamic.
00:48:10Now there's a word every man wants to hear in the bedroom.
00:48:14Not just for me, for both of us.
00:48:18You know?
00:48:20How do I know that you don't just want sex?
00:48:22And how do you know that I don't just want a paycheck?
00:48:26Looks like I'm not the only one with trust issues.
00:48:30Am I wrong?
00:48:32Well, I mean, you said after this weekend you might not be an escort anymore.
00:48:36So then what?
00:48:42So then I will take you out on a date.
00:48:48I don't know if I fit in here.
00:48:52You know, with your family.
00:48:54And your...world.
00:48:56Hey.
00:48:58Then I will make space for you.
00:49:06Get away from my son.
00:49:10What are you talking about, Mom?
00:49:13I just received a disturbing email from Delaney
00:49:16with attachments from an escort service.
00:49:18Did you know about this?
00:49:20About this gold digger?
00:49:22Calm down. It's not like that.
00:49:24I trusted you.
00:49:25And you lied to my face about using my son.
00:49:28I'm sorry I had to lie to you, but I was never using him.
00:49:31You're trespassing.
00:49:33Get off my property before I call the police.
00:49:35All right. Listen.
00:49:36There is no need to be so dramatic.
00:49:38All right?
00:49:39I wanted a professional, so I hired one.
00:49:41Okay?
00:49:42End of story.
00:49:43Professional?
00:49:44You knew?
00:49:45Tate.
00:49:46I see the way you look at her.
00:49:48This woman has you eating out of the palm of her hand.
00:49:52And she lied to you, Tate.
00:49:54What do you mean she lied to me?
00:49:56Josie, please.
00:49:57Her mother's alive.
00:49:58Not dead, as she led us to believe.
00:50:01She lied about something like this?
00:50:03How can we believe anything she has to say?
00:50:07Is that true?
00:50:11It is, but...
00:50:12So much for really getting to know each other, huh?
00:50:14Can we please just talk about this privately?
00:50:17Why?
00:50:18So you can spin more lies, get off my property, or I'll call the police.
00:50:22Tate.
00:50:24Tate.
00:50:26Just leave.
00:50:28Before it gets any worse.
00:50:35So much for making space for me.
00:50:41Think about our family's future.
00:50:44What would your father think of this?
00:50:46A prostitute for a daughter-in-law?
00:50:50Enough.
00:50:51Now we have to spin damage control.
00:50:54Delaney promised not to leak it to the press if you meet with her for a chat.
00:50:59Piper.
00:51:00Hey, Piper.
00:51:01What the hell do you want?
00:51:02How could you lie to me?
00:51:03I don't owe you an explanation.
00:51:04How could you let your mother say those things to me?
00:51:05Yeah, well, maybe she was right.
00:51:06You never cared about me.
00:51:07You only cared about using me for my money and my connections.
00:51:08But what else should I have expected from an escort?
00:51:09You sell your body for money.
00:51:10Huh?
00:51:11Wait, but...
00:51:12I didn't mean that.
00:51:13I'm sorry.
00:51:14I went home.
00:51:15I didn't mean that.
00:51:16I'm sorry.
00:51:17I went home.
00:51:18I went home.
00:51:19I went home.
00:51:20I went home.
00:51:21I went home.
00:51:22I went home.
00:51:23I went home.
00:51:24I went home.
00:51:25I went home.
00:51:26Piper.
00:51:27I didn't mean that.
00:51:28I'm sorry.
00:51:29I went too far.
00:51:30No.
00:51:31You know what?
00:51:32You're right.
00:51:33I am just an escort.
00:51:35And you're just another client.
00:51:38This was just business.
00:51:40And we are done here.
00:51:42Piper, wait.
00:51:56Hey, Renee.
00:51:57Is everything okay with my mom?
00:52:14Oh.
00:52:15Good.
00:52:16Sure.
00:52:17I'll stop by the pharmacy on the way home.
00:52:20No problem.
00:52:21Bye.
00:52:22Congratulations, Michelangela.
00:52:25Oh my gosh.
00:52:26You're so sweet.
00:52:27You did not have to do that.
00:52:29Of course I did.
00:52:30We have to celebrate you coming all this way, all on your own.
00:52:33Well, not all on my own.
00:52:35How is our little one doing today?
00:52:38Crushing my bladder, as a matter of fact.
00:52:43This is incredible, Piper.
00:52:46You said you were going into business on your own.
00:52:49I had no idea.
00:52:50It was partially thanks to your wedding.
00:52:55Am I your muse?
00:52:57I did feel inspired that weekend.
00:53:01It was the first time I was able to paint in over a year.
00:53:06And Tate introduced me to Sebastian Rothwell.
00:53:09He loved one of my new pieces, wrote an article about it.
00:53:13And then I had requests and commissions just flooding in.
00:53:17So, thanks for getting married.
00:53:20Well, thank you for letting me be in your life.
00:53:23Between that and you agreeing to keep this a secret, you have definitely earned your best friend's path.
00:53:30Well, it's not hard to keep a secret when you barely speak to your family.
00:53:34It's okay.
00:53:37It's good, actually.
00:53:38After the way they treated you, I finally drew some boundaries.
00:53:42No more meddling from mom.
00:53:43No more watching Tate destroy the legacy my father created.
00:53:47How is he?
00:53:49From what I can tell.
00:53:52Miserable.
00:53:53And he's making everybody around him miserable too.
00:53:58He's shutting down Dad's foundation.
00:54:03This gorgeous new property just opened up in the 7th.
00:54:14Overpriced, no doubt.
00:54:16Without the foundation bleeding our firm dry, we can afford it.
00:54:20Our first European office.
00:54:23Our London office is in Europe.
00:54:26We can spend the summers vacationing on the Seine.
00:54:30Ugh, the Seine is filthy.
00:54:33I'll take a tour when I visit next week.
00:54:47What the hell is this?
00:54:49That's the ring you're going to use to propose to me.
00:54:52We'll announce the good news when I'm back.
00:54:55Don't worry.
00:54:56I like a surprise.
00:55:14Hello?
00:55:15Is there anyone here to help me?
00:55:17I'd love to purchase a piece.
00:55:19Be out in a sec.
00:55:21Take your time, dear.
00:55:23I think you're showing an artist that I've been trying to find for the past year.
00:55:29You have no idea how hard it is to track him down.
00:55:33He never signs his paintings.
00:55:36I didn't realize he was being shown in a gallery.
00:55:39I think I saw one of his paintings in your catalog.
00:55:43It resembled the one I purchased last year.
00:55:46What do you think you're doing here?
00:55:49Excuse me?
00:55:51I need to talk to the artist immediately.
00:55:53Does he know the gallery hired a prostitute?
00:55:56I'm the artist that you've been looking for.
00:55:59And this is my gallery.
00:56:01Now get off of my property before I call the police.
00:56:05Wait.
00:56:06Wait.
00:56:07Judging from your appearance, I think I should stay.
00:56:11I don't have to take your insults anymore.
00:56:14If I'm not mistaken, and I've had two pregnancies myself, I think you're as far along as Ariana's wedding.
00:56:21Did you do this to trap him?
00:56:24You're coming after child support, aren't you?
00:56:26Tate doesn't know.
00:56:28And I don't need his support.
00:56:30Why didn't you tell him?
00:56:32Because I want nothing to do with the youngs.
00:56:37As you can see, I'm thriving on my own.
00:56:40Even as an escort, I was fine.
00:56:42And I refused to bring my daughter into a family that views me, or her, as a shameful mistake.
00:56:49You're having a little girl?
00:56:51Yes.
00:56:52I'm having a girl.
00:56:54And just because I don't have the same resources as you, doesn't mean I can't give her the best damn life possible.
00:57:00She's gonna be happy and healthy, and she will never have the misfortune of meeting you.
00:57:06Now please leave.
00:57:15Thanks for coming by.
00:57:17I needed access to all of Dad's files on the Foundation.
00:57:21That's the only reason I'm here.
00:57:23I don't want to argue with you.
00:57:24Is that all you think I do?
00:57:26Either that, or you guilt trip me about shutting down Dad's Foundation.
00:57:29I don't want to argue with you either.
00:57:32I just want to ask, have you ever heard from Piper again?
00:57:38What?
00:57:39No.
00:57:40Why?
00:57:41I heard she opened her own gallery.
00:57:44Good for her.
00:57:46I thought maybe we could stop by sometime?
00:57:50Or just you?
00:57:52Reconnect?
00:57:53You know, I just don't understand you.
00:57:56First you throw her out of the house, and now you're trying to set us up?
00:58:00That's not what I'm trying to do.
00:58:02I thought that you would be happy that I'm back with Delaney.
00:58:05You know, someone from our world?
00:58:07I just can't win with you.
00:58:08Tate, stop.
00:58:10There's something that I have to tell you about Piper.
00:58:15This song is one of your favorites, Mama.
00:58:42What are you doing here?
00:59:05My mother told me.
00:59:08How did you find me?
00:59:10We have a PI on retainer.
00:59:12Of course you do.
00:59:14Do you people respect anything?
00:59:16You want to talk about respect?
00:59:18How could you not tell me we're about to have a kid?
00:59:20We're not about to do anything.
00:59:22Keep your voice down.
00:59:24Is that your mom?
00:59:25Is she okay?
00:59:26No.
00:59:27She's not okay.
00:59:28Why did you lie about her?
00:59:29I wasn't lying when I said that she's no longer with us.
00:59:31She's gone.
00:59:32Alzheimer's.
00:59:33Her care nearly drove me to bankruptcy, but that's in the past now.
00:59:37I'm fully capable of supporting my family all on my own.
00:59:52You should have told me that.
00:59:57It's too painful to talk about.
01:00:01And you should have told me about this too.
01:00:05You didn't defend me, Tate.
01:00:07And you never reached out.
01:00:09You wanted nothing to do with me after that day.
01:00:11Piper.
01:00:12Look, I get it.
01:00:14I'm a black mark on your precious reputation.
01:00:20Delaney's better for you.
01:00:22How do you know about that?
01:00:24The press fall was your every move.
01:00:26And I'm sure they'd have a field day about this.
01:00:35Please, just leave us alone.
01:00:38I want my daughter to know real love.
01:00:42And I don't think you're capable of it.
01:00:54You haven't taken your telescope out since you were a kid.
01:00:58Yeah, well, I try not to think about Dad too much these days.
01:01:02Yeah.
01:01:04Did you see Piper?
01:01:05What did she say?
01:01:07How much does she want?
01:01:09She didn't want anything.
01:01:11We'll need to draft an NDA.
01:01:13Good God, a pregnant escort.
01:01:15The media circus around that.
01:01:17Is that all you can think about?
01:01:19I'm thinking about our family.
01:01:21Yeah, so am I.
01:01:23I'm about to have a daughter out there in the world
01:01:25who I'll never meet, thanks to you.
01:01:27Hey, don't blame this on me.
01:01:29You were the one that brought her in this house in the first place.
01:01:32You're right.
01:01:34And I'm ashamed of us.
01:01:36For how we treated her.
01:01:38You want to know why she was escorting?
01:01:42It's because her mother is sick.
01:01:44Not dead, I mean really sick.
01:01:46But I guess Delaney's email didn't include that, huh?
01:01:48You know what?
01:01:50It doesn't even matter who's to blame.
01:01:52I understand why she didn't tell me.
01:01:56I make a terrible father.
01:02:00I'm nothing like Dad.
01:02:12Hey Drew, have you seen my key to the supply closet anywhere?
01:02:16It's exquisite.
01:02:22It changed my life.
01:02:24It's what made all this possible.
01:02:27When did you paint it?
01:02:29The night I met him.
01:02:31Before everything else.
01:02:34I was thinking about Vermeer's portraits.
01:02:38His use of light and contrast
01:02:41to create a whole world and essence of a person.
01:02:44What appears at first glance simple.
01:02:48Becomes increasingly intimate.
01:02:53And exposes who the person is emotionally.
01:02:56I owe you an apology, Piper.
01:03:01And an explanation.
01:03:05The way I accused you of only going after Tate for his money.
01:03:08I only feared that because that's how I married my husband.
01:03:13I grew up with so little.
01:03:16Practically nothing really.
01:03:18I vowed my children would not have the same fate.
01:03:22So you accused me of what you did?
01:03:23You went digging for gold?
01:03:25Only at first.
01:03:26But yes.
01:03:28I sought out Harrison for the security.
01:03:33So what happened after you got married?
01:03:35Did you tell him the truth or did you just live out a lie?
01:03:38After a few months I was head over heels.
01:03:41Harrison was the love of my life.
01:03:43The best husband and father I could have ever asked for.
01:03:46Well I'm sorry Tate didn't turn out more like Harrison then.
01:03:50But I appreciate your honesty.
01:03:53Piper.
01:03:55I know that if given the chance Tate would follow in his father's footsteps.
01:04:02You don't have to forgive me.
01:04:04But please.
01:04:06Please let Tate be a part of his child's life.
01:04:09I'll think about it.
01:04:28Josie brought me.
01:04:30She must have really groveled.
01:04:33She did change my mind about something.
01:04:36I never grew up knowing my father.
01:04:39And I'd be lying if I said that I didn't feel that absence.
01:04:45So I'm willing to let you be in her life.
01:04:49On my terms.
01:04:55See you in a month.
01:04:56Wait.
01:04:57What?
01:04:58Well the baby's not here yet.
01:05:01Yeah but I want to be a good father now.
01:05:06What do you mean?
01:05:12Being a good father means taking care of the mother.
01:05:15Even if the child's not here yet.
01:05:20You can come over tonight.
01:05:22I need help building a crib.
01:05:25I'll be there.
01:05:36You're on the wrong page.
01:05:45I am not.
01:05:47If you would just let me help.
01:05:49No Piper absolutely not.
01:05:51And don't make me send you to bed early.
01:05:57So how's your mom doing?
01:05:58Is there any chance for improvement?
01:06:00Not really.
01:06:03You know she has good days.
01:06:05But it's mainly about managing the bad ones.
01:06:09Always worried that she's miserable.
01:06:12She's nonverbal so I have no way of knowing.
01:06:20Speaking of your mother.
01:06:21We moved your For Elizabeth piece into the estate now that the foundation is shutting down.
01:06:28I heard.
01:06:31Why are you trying to shut down your father's work?
01:06:34The foundation was draining us.
01:06:36The family firm needs to expand.
01:06:38The word family comes first in that sentence for a reason.
01:06:42My dad would have loved you.
01:06:44He always put it in that order too.
01:06:47Family. Foundation. Firm.
01:06:49So if foundation comes before a firm don't you think he'd want you to keep it open?
01:06:55Yeah well add it to the list of ways I'm letting him down.
01:07:00What else is on the list?
01:07:03Well all he ever wanted was for me to be happy.
01:07:06And I'm not. Not since.
01:07:08Oh.
01:07:10What's wrong?
01:07:12Contractions.
01:07:14Are you going into labor?
01:07:15No it's just.
01:07:17Oh Braxton Hicks.
01:07:21It's like a sharp pain across my stomach and my lower back.
01:07:34Better?
01:07:36Better.
01:07:37Better.
01:07:40She's kicking.
01:07:42Can you feel it?
01:07:46Yeah I can.
01:07:48She loves dancing around in there.
01:07:51Hopefully she's a better dancer than her mom.
01:07:53I have an idea.
01:07:57What are you doing?
01:07:59I am eight months pregnant you psycho.
01:08:01Yes and I heard that you're supposed to get thirty minutes of exercise a day.
01:08:03Ugh.
01:08:04Ugh.
01:08:05Hey.
01:08:06You're not stepping on my feet.
01:08:07I'm not stepping on my feet.
01:08:08I am eight months pregnant you psycho.
01:08:10What are you doing?
01:08:11I'm eight months pregnant you psycho.
01:08:13Yes and I heard that you're supposed to get thirty minutes of exercise a day.
01:08:17Ugh.
01:08:19Ugh.
01:08:20Ugh.
01:08:21Hey, you're not stepping on my feet.
01:08:33Well, there's a big belly in between us.
01:08:41God, Piper.
01:08:43What?
01:08:45If I thought you were sexy before.
01:08:48I'm a beached whale.
01:08:52You were perfect.
01:09:02Wait, no, I'm sorry, Piper.
01:09:04It's fine.
01:09:07You have nothing to be sorry for.
01:09:09Co-parents, we're not dating.
01:09:12Things with Delaney, they're complicated.
01:09:16They shouldn't be.
01:09:18She's perfect for you.
01:09:21We shouldn't have.
01:09:24You should go.
01:09:26Come to my mother's birthday dinner tomorrow.
01:09:30Please, Piper.
01:09:33I'll come.
01:09:34I want a good relationship with your mom.
01:09:37And what about a relationship with me?
01:09:40Who knows?
01:09:42You might make a good dad.
01:09:43I'm always...
01:09:44But you're no good for me.
01:09:48But you're no good for me.
01:09:48But I don't like a picture with you.
01:09:49I'll be nice.
01:09:52I'll be nice.
01:10:06I'll be right back.
01:10:06You're very sorry.
01:10:07I'm not even a little.'"
01:10:09I'm not a little bit...
01:10:09You're welcome.
01:10:10You're welcome.

01:14:18that I don't believe you I heard what you said out there I meant every word of it it's not that I don't believe you it's just
01:14:32I'm just, I'm really scared, Tate.
01:14:40Tell me what you're scared of.
01:14:43Messing up our kid.
01:14:46Spoiling her too much, or not enough, or what if we're bad parents?
01:14:53We don't know what we're doing.
01:14:56We'll get through it together.
01:15:03That's not what scares me the most, though.
01:15:09I'm scared of how much I love you.
01:15:14I love you too.
01:15:17We hardly know each other.
01:15:20It sounds crazy, but I feel like you know me better than anyone else.
01:15:25The real me.
01:15:28But ask me anything, I'm an open book.
01:15:32What do you want?
01:15:37I want us to be a family, Piper.
01:15:39That's it.
01:15:40First and foremost.
01:15:44I want to give Lizzie the kind of childhood that you and I never got to have.
01:15:48Lizzie?
01:15:50Yeah.
01:15:52Short for Elizabeth.
01:15:54I thought it sounded right.
01:16:00It sounds perfect.
01:16:01My mom is so excited we're moving into the estate.
01:16:13It's not exactly giving normal childhood.
01:16:16Well, normal doesn't have to mean lugging a stroller up four flights stairs, Piper.
01:16:20And besides, there's more than enough room here for me, you, Lizzie, and your mom.
01:16:24She does seem more comfortable here.
01:16:28I, um, I have a confession to make.
01:16:32After the family doctor gave you the all-clear, I asked her to reach out to some Alzheimer's
01:16:37specialists.
01:16:39You did that?
01:16:39Of course.
01:16:41I talked to them, and we came up with an action plan that should give Elizabeth more good days.
01:16:46What kind of action plan?
01:16:48Well, a full-time in-house specialist for one.
01:16:51And an environment where she's surrounded by people who care for her.
01:16:56Plus, something else that should help bring back some memories.
01:17:00Is that a piano?
01:17:17She's happy.
01:17:20Tate, I can tell she's happy.
01:17:23We usually came right back to her.
01:17:24The doctors don't know if it was muscle memory or what, but they think it's a good sign.
01:17:31I'm not surprised.
01:17:34You know, it's in her muscles, her blood, her DNA, everything.
01:17:40Do you want to try talking to her?
01:17:44Not yet.
01:17:46I want her to have this.
01:17:54My mom took Lizzie on a walk to show her off to the neighborhood.
01:18:14Oh, she's going to have the whole street wrapped around her finger.
01:18:18You know, you're not going to be able to teach her how to use that for a few years.
01:18:22Yes, but in the meantime, he'll teach her how to paint.
01:18:27And who knows, maybe we'll have the next starry night on our hands.
01:18:31Hopefully without the botched ear job.
01:18:34There's a piece I can't find.
01:18:36Do you mind looking in that box for me?
01:18:37It's, uh, small and gold.
01:18:41Tate, what's this?
01:18:43Piper Manning, you made me want to look up at the stars again.
01:19:00Will you marry me?
01:19:03I will.
01:19:04Oh, yeah.
01:19:12Oh, my goodness.
01:19:14Oh, my God.
01:19:17Oh, my goodness.
01:19:17Oh, my goodness.
01:19:26Oh, my goodness.
