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.
00:00:51Roland likes a buzzkill.
00:00:54Good morning to you, too.
00:01:00I had never had Mediterranean food before.
00:01:02So he immediately takes me to this restaurant on 45th and...
00:01:05Mmm, Jonathan, he's quite a romantic.
00:01:09And 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, Mabel would know.
00:01:20She schedules everything, Jonathan.
00:01:23Oh, right.
00:01:25His 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...
00:01:39Oh, hey.
00:01:41I've heard so many wonderful things about you, Mabel.
00:01:45Julie.
00:01:46Julie.
00:01:48What are you doing here?
00:01:55It's just a surprise visit for my lovely fiancΓ©e.
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?
00:02:15Yes, 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.
00:02:24Thank 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?
00:02:37Woo-hoo.
00:02:50Oh, well, well.
00:02:51Congratulations on nailing the pitch, Mabel.
00:02:56Well, I learned from the best.
00:02:58Is he as usual, Jonathan?
00:03:17Mom!
00:03:18I thought we agreed on calling first.
00:03:22Since when do I need permission to see my son, hmm?
00:03:25What's the matter?
00:03:27We 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.
00:03:38And you should join us as well, Mabel.
00:03:46How did you get your co-tellus again?
00:03:57If we go again, it's your...
00:03:59A toast.
00:04:05To the union.
00:04:10Mabel, can you pull me some wine?
00:04:12Mabel's a guest.
00:04:13Of course, Miss 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.
00:04:47Oh, we are so looking forward to this marriage.
00:04:52Yeah.
00:04:55I'm full.
00:04:57Please enjoy.
00:04:57Enjoy.
00:04:57You okay?
00:05:15You okay?
00:05:17Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:05:18I thought you were someone else.
00:05:20Who were 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.
00:05:52I was thinking of setting you two up on a date.
00:05:55You make a cute couple.
00:06:05A date?
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.
00:06:13Well, it's a kind offer,
00:06:17but I'm not interested in dating anyone right now.
00:06:20No 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.
00:06:32I 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.
00:06:46Stay 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.
00:07:03I can foresee a wedding in the near future.
00:07:24Morning.
00:07:25The files are ready for you to sign.
00:07:28Were you okay last night?
00:07:36What'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.
00:07:50I'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.
00:08:33Before we start,
00:08:34you should know that
00:08:35I am a messy eater.
00:08:38And I hate cats.
00:08:40I'm also indifferent to
00:08:41humanity and climate change.
00:08:44We can just agree that this wasn't a match.
00:08:46And that's your strategy for tonight?
00:08:50Tell me more about yourself.
00:08:52What do you want to know?
00:08:53Family?
00:08:53My mom died,
00:08:54and my father is a gambler.
00:08:57You'd inherit his debts at the altar.
00:09:00Delightful company you are.
00:09:02I'm a walking old flock.
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.
00:09:15Weirdo.
00:09:18It says Miss Mosterdate.
00:09:21Meatball.
00:09:30You're Jack's son.
00:09:33He was such a talented gardener.
00:09:36A favorite servant of mine growing up.
00:09:38If you don't mind,
00:09:39we're on a date.
00:09:41Oh, and having fun, I see.
00:09:42We would be.
00:09:45Without any interruptions.
00:09:57I'm on my way.
00:09:59Okay.
00:10:00Sorry.
00:10:00I have to go.
00:10:04Mabel.
00:10:04Excuse me.
00:10:10I am here for my father, Mr. Morris.
00:10:12What happened?
00:10:13He's stable now.
00:10:15Creditors got rough with him.
00:10:17Broke a couple ribs,
00:10:18but he's breathing.
00:10:20How do I pay for the bills?
00:10:23They've been paid for.
00:10:25By whom?
00:10:26Ryan.
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.
00:10:43So, you grew up in the Whiteford Mansion?
00:10:57Yeah, I did.
00:10:58I helped my dad with the gardens,
00:11:01and we planted exotic flowers from around the world.
00:11:04Paradise for plant geeks, for sure.
00:11:06I'm super nerdy.
00:11:07You were serious about your father's debts, weren't you?
00:11:16He was a gambler.
00:11:19He's changed, but it still haunts us.
00:11:23I just hope to one day settle the debts.
00:11:25You were not the terrible person you made yourself out to be.
00:11:28You've known me for one day.
00:11:30Hold your conclusions, Sherlock.
00:11:34Well, this is me.
00:11:37Good night, nerd.
00:11:41Good night, monster date.
00:11:51It'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 everything to you.
00:12:06So, it went well, then.
00:12:07Your mother set us up, Jonathan.
00:12:09How could I refuse?
00:12:11Good.
00:12:12So, then, it was all just for show.
00:12:14Well, I actually had a really nice time.
00:12:16I might consider a second date.
00:12:19I can still smell Julie's perfume.
00:12:21Then come shower it off me.
00:12:22You went on a date with another man.
00:12:26And you took another woman to a restaurant that I recommended.
00:12:28Jealous?
00:12:30Not as much as you.
00:12:31You did west side of my house.
00:12:41Yeah.
00:12:43I close.
00:12:46I'd like to see you.
00:12:48I'm sorry.
00:12:49And you'll be back on forgiveness.
00:12:50I'm sorry.
00:12:50I know you are in front.
00:12:52I don't know you.
00:12:54I'm sorry.
00:12:55I can't.
00:12:55I'm sorry.
00:12:56I'm sorry.
00:12:56I'm so sorry.
00:12:56I can't tell you.
00:12:57I like to just show you.
00:12:57I should be beside you.
00:12:58I can't.
00:12:58I need to be beside you.
00:12:59Morning.
00:13:06Coffee or tea?
00:13:09Uh, coffee.
00:13:15You never make me breakfast.
00:13:19Last night must have been record-breaking.
00:13:23Come here.
00:13:27I'm breaking up with you.
00:13:29What do you mean?
00:13:33Well, more of an ending than a breakup, really.
00:13:36We need to stop.
00:13:37Whatever this is.
00:13:39What about our last night?
00:13:42Consider it a breakup gift.
00:13:43Breakup? We weren't even together.
00:13:45Exactly.
00:13:50Shouldn't be too hard to move on.
00:13:52Happy 7th Anniversary, Mabel!
00:14:07Oh my god!
00:14:07Anniversary?
00:14:10I mean, 7 years old at Webber.
00:14:13Time flies, doesn't it?
00:14:14Wow, it really has been that long.
00:14:16Time to cut the cake, Mabel.
00:14:18Hey!
00:14:18You guys are so sweet.
00:14:19What are you doing?
00:14:20What are you doing?
00:14:22Boss, it's her special day.
00:14:24So, we have the meeting with Harbour in an hour.
00:14:29Do your jobs!
00:14:30Boss!
00:14:30I'm just trying to cut.
00:14:31You guys are so sweet.
00:14:32I'm just trying to cut.
00:14:33I'm just trying to cut.
00:14:34I'm just trying to cut.
00:14:35I'm just trying to cut.
00:14:35I'm just trying to cut my hair.
00:14:36How are you?
00:14:37What are you doing?
00:14:37I don't know.
00:15:07I don't know.
00:15:37I don't know.
00:15:44Happy anniversary, Mabel.
00:15:46It was fun while it lasted.
00:15:59Hello.
00:16:00This is Mabel.
00:16:02Evening, Mabel.
00:16:04Ryan, what an honor.
00:16:06You want to grab dinner together?
00:16:08Just as friends, of course.
00:16:09I'm not up for another dramatic date.
00:16:12Sure, why not?
00:16:14Where are we going?
00:16:16I know the perfect spot.
00:16:17I'll text you.
00:16:18See you soon.
00:16:23I'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.
00:16:29It'd be weird if they didn't.
00:16:31How could it be so addictive?
00:16:33How 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.
00:16:42Although, if I did sign an NDA, I couldn't really share otherwise, could I?
00:16:47Yes.
00:16:48Goodbye.
00:16:49This 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'll just say 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 as head of the creative strategies.
00:17:12Novatec.
00:17:17But I thought you said you were-
00:17:22The gardener's son.
00:17:23Yes, I still am, but I'm not defined by what my father does.
00:17:27Even if Barbara thinks so.
00:17:30After years of education and, well, hard work, I find myself at MIT and started my own company.
00:17:37It's good to own something of your own, right?
00:17:39That's incredible, Ryan.
00:17:41And I'm grateful for the opportunity, but I already have a job.
00:17:45And 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.
00:17:53You're the key success to the Wifers project.
00:17:56It's time for you to get outside of Jonathan's shadow.
00:18:00So, cheers to chasing what you truly deserve.
00:18:05Ms. Whiteford, um, Jonathan's left for the-
00:18:12I'm here to see you.
00:18:26How 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.
00:18:38I've warned you.
00:18:41No marriage.
00:18:44No job at Whiteford Tech.
00:18:47And you will be banned from the industry.
00:18:49I've ended things with Jonathan.
00:18:51Then marry Ryan to prove it.
00:18:54I've done my research as well, Mabel.
00:18:58Leave my son.
00:18:59Leave my son.
00:19:01And I'll clear all your father's debts.
00:19:04If not, those seeking him will find him.
00:19:10Perhaps Jonathan is the one who needs guidance, not me.
00:19:14I don't think you understand the situation.
00:19:17You are nothing to Jonathan.
00:19:20At most, a shadow of his past pain.
00:19:24A reminder of a heartbreak.
00:19:27What do you mean?
00:19:28You don't know, do you?
00:19:30Marry Ryan.
00:19:32It's my last warning.
00:19:36It's my last warning.
00:19:37Did I miss some meeting?
00:19:51Uh, no.
00:19:52I just...
00:19:53Your driver couldn't get a hold of you.
00:19:54He was concerned.
00:19:55Mr. Whiteford, it's October 15th.
00:19:56Shit, shit.
00:19:57That's right.
00:19:58You never always take the day off.
00:19:59It's okay.
00:20:00The car's out front.
00:20:01No, it's not okay.
00:20:02I never forget.
00:20:03Just clear everything for today.
00:20:04Okay.
00:20:05I've kept your calendar clear, as always.
00:20:06Okay.
00:20:08Um.
00:20:09The car, Mr. Whiteford.
00:20:10Right.
00:20:11I'll, uh, see you.
00:20:12At the office?
00:20:13Right.
00:20:14Right.
00:20:15I'll, uh, see you.
00:20:16At the office?
00:20:17Right.
00:20:18I mean?
00:20:19Okay.
00:20:20Um.
00:20:21Um.
00:20:22Um.
00:20:23The car, Mr. Whiteford.
00:20:25Right.
00:20:26I'll, uh, see you.
00:20:27At the office?
00:20:28Right.
00:20:29Uh.
00:20:30Hello?
00:20:31Mabel, where are you?
00:20:32Our server is dead!
00:20:33Oh.
00:20:34Uh.
00:20:35Okay.
00:20:36I'm on my way.
00:20:37The entire server crashed!
00:20:38Where is Mr. Whiteford?
00:20:39Hey, what happened?
00:20:40We are under attack.
00:20:41We need a system reboot.
00:20:42Where is Mr. Whiteford?
00:20:43We need his admin call.
00:20:44Now!
00:20:45Uh.
00:20:46Okay, he's out of the office.
00:20:47Um, let me just try contacting him, okay?
00:20:48Uh.
00:20:49Okay.
00:20:50Uh.
00:20:51Okay.
00:20:52He's out of the office.
00:20:53Um.
00:20:54Let me just try contacting him, okay?
00:20:55Uh.
00:20:56Okay.
00:20:57Uh.
00:20:58We need that code.
00:20:59Do you have access to it?
00:21:00No.
00:21:01That code is highly confidential.
00:21:02Jonathan is the sole owner.
00:21:03Um.
00:21:04Let me try.
00:21:05What else?
00:21:06We're completely offline.
00:21:07Come on, Mabel.
00:21:08You know you're the best.
00:21:09A moment.
00:21:10Try Fiona.
00:21:11Uh.
00:21:12F.
00:21:13F.
00:21:14I.
00:21:15O.
00:21:16N.
00:21:17A.
00:21:18Fiona.
00:21:19Give it a shot.
00:21:20Fiona.
00:21:21Give it a shot.
00:21:22Fiona.
00:21:23Fiona.
00:21:24Give it a shot.
00:21:25Fiona.
00:21:26Give it a shot.
00:21:27Fiona.
00:21:28Fiona.
00:21:29Fiona.
00:21:30Give it a shot.
00:21:31Fiona.
00:21:32Give it a shot.
00:21:33Fiona.
00:21:34Give it a shot.
00:21:35Fiona.
00:21:36Give it a shot.
00:21:38Remember that awkward dinner at the White Voids?
00:21:42Since...
00:21:43Fiona...
00:21:44You are nothing to turn at hand.
00:21:45At most, a shadow of his past pain.
00:21:48A reminder of a heartbreak.
00:21:51Hello, Jonathan.
00:21:52Good to see you.
00:21:53How may I help you?
00:21:54I love you.
00:21:55Hello, Jonathan.
00:21:57Good to see you.
00:21:58How may I help you?
00:21:59I'm sorry.
00:22:00I'm sorry.
00:22:01No, I'm sorry.
00:22:02I'm sorry.
00:22:03I'm sorry.
00:22:05I'm sorry.
00:22:06I'm sorry.
00:22:07I'm sorry.
00:22:08I'm sorry.
00:22:09I'm sorry.
00:22:10I'm sorry.
00:22:11Did Jonathan model this whole thing after you?
00:22:16Oh, no, that's not Mabel.
00:22:21That's my sister, Fiona.
00:22:24Jonathan's first love.
00:22:39Next, Mabel Morris?
00:22:41Hello.
00:23:00You know, coding demands intense focus and absolute silence.
00:23:07That's why having a capable assistant
00:23:09to help with other things, like interviews, is crucial.
00:23:23Shona.
00:23:25Um, I'm Mabel Morris, Mr. Whiteford.
00:23:28Here's my resume.
00:23:32Mabel.
00:23:32It's nice to meet you.
00:23:47When can you start?
00:23:51Tomorrow.
00:23:52No, actually, today.
00:23:55Welcome to Wife at Tech.
00:23:56Mabel.
00:23:58Mabel.
00:23:59Mabel.
00:24:01Mabel.
00:24:09Mabel.
00:24:10Are you all right?
00:24:11I know.
00:24:13Shocking, isn't it?
00:24:16You 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.
00:24:28To Jonathan, you're just a reminder of my sister.
00:24:31He doesn't love you.
00:24:32You're nothing but a shadow to him.
00:24:33You're nothing but a shadow to him.
00:24:34You are, at best, a placebo.
00:24:40Oh, Mabel.
00:24:42Did you actually think you stood a chance?
00:24:44You pathetic slut.
00:24:50Fuck off.
00:24:56Oh, 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.
00:25:14Hey, Mabel.
00:25:35What's wrong?
00:25:41There 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, tell me about this attack.
00:26:06So, 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.
00:26:28Signal down there.
00:26:30We got the code.
00:26:31You did.
00:26:34How?
00:26:36Luckily, Julie was there.
00:26:44So you've seen...
00:26:45Fiona?
00:26:46Fiona?
00:26:51Yeah.
00:26:56Fiona?
00:26:57Yeah.
00:27:02Mabel.
00:27:04I know you have a lot of questions.
00:27:06Actually, I found a lot of answers today.
00:27:09I thought I was lucky.
00:27:16To have that job.
00:27:19To work at the company.
00:27:21To be by your side.
00:27:25To enter a relationship with you or whatever that was.
00:27:28But it turns out, I was just a replacement.
00:27:35No.
00:27:36A replacement for some sick, twisted obsession that you can't get over.
00:27:41I'm shadowing for a dead girlfriend.
00:27:45All those years.
00:27:47When you've been...
00:27:49You were fucking a goat.
00:27:52Mia!
00:27:54Don't speak.
00:27:56Don't use that term.
00:27:57Dead.
00:27:58Ghosts.
00:27:59So?
00:28:00That's the reality of it, Jonathan.
00:28:02She is both.
00:28:10I'm Mabel Morris.
00:28:12I'm not...
00:28:14I'm not your dead girlfriend.
00:28:17I'm not Fiona.
00:28:25You're right.
00:28:27You're not her.
00:28:30Nobody is.
00:28:40I've submitted my resignation.
00:28:45Thank you for the opportunity.
00:28:48Years ago, I learned a lot.
00:28:49Bye, Mr. Whiteford.
00:28:53Bye, Mr. Whiteford.
00:29:05Fuck!
00:29:05You 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.
00:29:29She 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.
00:29:42He's at Silver Pine Hospital.
00:29:54Tell his creditors.
00:29:56I knew you had an alien.
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.
00:30:09Uh, Mrs. Whiteford, there's been a misunderstanding.
00:30:21Oh, enough, Julie.
00:30:22Cut it.
00:30:25Fiona was sweet.
00:30:28But too naive for our world.
00:30:30Her innocence was a liability.
00:30:33I tried separating Jonathan and Fiona for years.
00:30:37But Jonathan was so invested.
00:30:38Even ignoring this family to pursue his little tech project.
00:30:43All 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.
00:30:59But just when I thought all was lost,
00:31:02Fiona was out of the picture.
00:31:05Her death was no coincidence, Julie.
00:31:07God plays no favors.
00:31:09I see your hand in her car accident.
00:31:13How long have you known him?
00:31:17Oh, Julie.
00:31:20I've known from the start.
00:31:21What happened?
00:31:26He's, his debt collector's caught up to him.
00:31:31Luke, you okay?
00:31:32Prepare for the worst.
00:31:33He's lost a lot of blood.
00:31:36How did they 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.
00:31:41We'll do our best to locate his attackers.
00:31:42I warned you.
00:31:43I warned you.
00:31:44This is seeing him.
00:31:45I lied.
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...
00:32:04Please 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?
00:32:21No!
00:32:21Can I...
00:32:22No!
00:32:44Mom.
00:32:47After you left, Dad was never the same.
00:32:52When you left us, I lost him.
00:33:04I always thought it would get better.
00:33:11But it did.
00:33:15I'm sorry.
00:33:19I feel like a nobody.
00:33:22I feel that everything.
00:33:27I feel that everything.
00:33:33Leave me alone.
00:33:47You got food from your favorite place.
00:33:48You don't have to talk to me, but...
00:33:54Please say something.
00:33:59Well, I can't eat all that food by myself.
00:34:00I'm only going to ask you once, and I'll leave you be.
00:34:15But are you okay?
00:34:17Do you want to talk about it?
00:34:18I'm managing.
00:34:22The food helped.
00:34:27You don't have to smile if you don't want to.
00:34:30It'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.
00:34:41I get it.
00:34:42And I'm sorry you're going through all of this.
00:34:47I've lost a loved one, too.
00:34:49Great.
00:34:49Do you have a dead girlfriend also?
00:34:51A dead girlfriend?
00:34:52Wait.
00:34:52You 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.
00:35:04I didn't lose a lover.
00:35:08It was my mother I lost.
00:35:12Ryan, I'm sorry.
00:35:14It's okay.
00:35:15This whole week is just...
00:35:19Everything feels so pointless.
00:35:24That'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.
00:35:37No, seriously.
00:35:39Modern day Socrates.
00:35:42Thank you, Ryan.
00:35:45Thank you, Ryan.
00:35:54For the food and the talk.
00:35:57Less of the food.
00:35:59It's still so addictive.
00:36:00They definitely put drugs in it.
00:36:02Yeah, I bet.
00:36:04Hey, if you need anything, just call me.
00:36:08I will.
00:36:09I think I just need some time to think things over.
00:36:12Have you considered your next steps?
00:36:15I'm not sure.
00:36:17Quit my job.
00:36:17Settled the debts.
00:36:18Now the world's just kind of open to me.
00:36:21It's strange.
00:36:22Yeah.
00:36:23Well, there's a spot for you at Novatec.
00:36:26Are you sure about me leading?
00:36:28You're the best one to lead it.
00:36:30Come on, just give it a shot.
00:36:32I'll think about it.
00:36:33Seriously.
00:36:33That's all I can ask.
00:36:34I'll see you next time.
00:36:35Okay.
00:36:36Bye.
00:36:42Mabel?
00:36:44Are you doing okay?
00:36:47Why aren't you here?
00:36:50Mabel?
00:36:52Are you doing okay?
00:36:54Why are you here?
00:36:56I saw what happened on the news.
00:36:58You were worried?
00:37:01Save it.
00:37:01It's none of your business.
00:37:02Mabel, please.
00:37:03Let me just...
00:37:04I'm done.
00:37:06Listening, Jonathan.
00:37:08I spent so much time on something that wasn't real.
00:37:14And 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.
00:37:23I 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.
00:37:43And this is the upstairs division.
00:37:54Hey, I 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.
00:38:02But I have one condition.
00:38:04I'd like to work from a different city.
00:38:06Why's that?
00:38:07Well, I hear you're expanding to Tokyo.
00:38:10That'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.
00:38:19We'll go all look at our heat, though, what?
00:38:21You know?
00:38:22How cute is this?
00:38:24Welcome to the table.
00:38:26What an honor, Captain.
00:38:27Let me show you around.
00:38:28Sir, you've been meeting with the creative team in 15 minutes.
00:38:41Right.
00:38:42Um, bring me their pitch deck and latest progress report.
00:38:47And see if Mabel is ready for the creative discussion.
00:38:50Sir, Mabel doesn't work here anymore.
00:38:52Or I can get someone else to help with-
00:38:54She can't be replaced.
00:39:07There's no one like her.
00:39:13Why don't you start in the living room?
00:39:14What is happening here?
00:39:22We're just doing our job, sir.
00:39:23Please don't interrupt.
00:39:25Where are these going?
00:39:27They're going to the donation.
00:39:28The owner already left.
00:39:38Get out.
00:39:39Ben, you're a mess.
00:39:44You do not want to talk.
00:39:48Okay, you haven't been this way since Fiona.
00:39:51Why are you this upset over a fleeting affair?
00:39:53Just move on.
00:39:54Find some-
00:39:54Mabel wasn't some fleeting affair.
00:39:56She's clearly just a villain for Fiona.
00:39:58Nothing more than her look-alike.
00:40:00She's different.
00:40:02Funny.
00:40:03Professional.
00:40:04She makes me feel good about myself.
00:40:05She's-
00:40:06She'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.
00:40:27I would never marry you having some fleeting feelings for her.
00:40:31That's- that's not right for either one of us.
00:40:32No, no.
00:40:33You don't determine that.
00:40:34Jonathan, I have dreamed of our marriage since the day we met.
00:40:37I sacrificed so much for that dream.
00:40:39I lost everything.
00:40:43What do you mean by that?
00:40:44Nothing.
00:40:45Nothing.
00:40:46I just-
00:40:47I can't see you, like-
00:40:48What are you hiding?
00:40:49Nothing.
00:40:50I was just saying that-
00:40:51Did you have something to do with Mabel leaving?
00:40:53I don't have to answer your accusations.
00:40:55You're delusional.
00:40:55Did you?
00:40:55No.
00:40:59Yeah.
00:41:01This is silly.
00:41:02Baby, we'll talk about this tomorrow, okay?
00:41:09Just sleep this off and we'll talk tomorrow.
00:41:11Hey, give me the visitor's list for Mabel's father's death.
00:41:26It's urgent.
00:41:31The hospital's footage was erased, but a doctor remembers a young woman claiming to be Mabel's friend.
00:41:36A young woman?
00:41:37Yes, sir.
00:41:39A detailed description matches Miss Miller.
00:41:44Julie.
00:41:46Should I contact Miss Miller for confirmation?
00:41:48No, don't bother.
00:41:49Any news on Mabel's location?
00:41:53She just purchased tickets for many destinations.
00:41:58Where is she currently?
00:41:59Last known location.
00:42:01She's in a cab to JFK Airport.
00:42:03Get the car ready.
00:42:04Now.
00:42:07I'm going to pull over.
00:42:14Right here.
00:42:14Stop.
00:42:16Mabel!
00:42:18Are you insane?
00:42:19What the hell are you doing?
00:42:26Mabel, where are you?
00:42:27Johnston.
00:42:28Don't go.
00:42:33Goodbye.
00:42:34Wait, Mabel.
00:42:34Mabel.
00:42:35Wait.
00:42:35Wait.
00:42:35Did you know about Mabel's departure?
00:42:45I know she left with Ryan Anderson, the servant's son.
00:42:50It's a good match.
00:42:51You should be happy for her.
00:42:52Were you part of this?
00:42:55Jonathan.
00:42:57Mabel made her own choice.
00:42:59No one pushed her.
00:43:00She has her life.
00:43:02We have ours.
00:43:03They don't intersect.
00:43:06Remember, you have responsibilities.
00:43:08The wedding's next month.
00:43:10Well, 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!
00:43:22I know it's already too late, but 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!
00:43:38And I'll spend it with Mabel.
00:43:39Mabel, turn it off.
00:44:02Mabel!
00:44:03Okay, you lazy bone.
00:44:07Come on.
00:44:08There'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.
00:44:15That's why I said I programmed you too well.
00:44:18Show off.
00:44:19The driver is ten minutes away.
00:44:35Got it.
00:44:38Put some clothes on.
00:44:41You can't see me, right?
00:44:43Don't need to.
00:44:44I know you too well.
00:44:47I'll make you more dumber.
00:44:48Heard that.
00:44:51Incoming call from Mrs. Whiteford.
00:44:55What are you 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 night.
00:45:16Mom.
00:45:17Mom.
00:45:18She'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.
00:45:32Sweet.
00:45:34Hi.
00:45:35What can I do to help?
00:45:40Keep her calm.
00:45:41She's a fighter.
00:45:42She might be able to pull through.
00:45:46See me?
00:45:49I'm here.
00:45:52Mabel, this is my father view 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.
00:46:04He's kind of nerdy sometimes.
00:46:07Oh, so nerdy.
00:46:08Mabel.
00:46:09Oh, I'm here.
00:46:09Oh, I'm here.
00:46:19Hey.
00:46:22When did you return?
00:46:24Mabel, we can leave with your...
00:46:26No need.
00:46:27We're just chatting.
00:46:30Jonathan, it's nice to see you.
00:46:31I was just looking for you.
00:46:33I deliberately ignored my request.
00:46:36I asked to be left alone.
00:46:37Mabel, I just wanted to sort things out.
00:46:39Everything was sorted.
00:46:40It'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.
00:46:53Actually, 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.
00:47:02Mabel, 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.
00:47:11And I need to meet.
00:47:13Mabel.
00:47:19We 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?
00:47:43Jonathan.
00:47:47He broke my heart once.
00:47:49I'm not going to give him a second chance.
00:47:52I'm not going to give him a second chance.
00:47:56I'm not going to give him a second chance.
00:47:57I'm not going to give him a second chance.
00:48:01This is Mabel.
00:48:03Head of Creators.
00:48:04Nice to meet the team.
00:48:06We'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...
00:48:13Good morning.
00:48:16What are you doing here?
00:48:18Mr. Whiteford.
00:48:19Welcome.
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.
00:48:29I hope that isn't a problem, Mr. Anderson.
00:48:33Considering the product is still under testing, we typically limit our attendance.
00:48:36He'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.
00:48:50What an honor, Mr. Whiteford.
00:48:53At 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 Novatec.
00:49:04We are thrilled to be doing business with you.
00:49:09Well, this sounds like a game changer.
00:49:12Congratulations.
00:49:14Mr. Whiteford, do your thoughts?
00:49:19It's good.
00:49:20Surely, 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.
00:49:35You've grown a lot, Mabel.
00:49:38It's a strong product, but not yet a market leader.
00:49:42But there's potential.
00:49:45Your menu needs more clarity.
00:49:46Your menu needs affecting your overall product.
00:49:48Your interface needs to improve the interactive system.
00:49:51It's far too average.
00:49:53And the interface needs to be more user-friendly than you notice.
00:49:56But overall, truly, truly, well done.
00:50:04Proud of you.
00:50:06Professional boundaries, Mr. Whiteford.
00:50:09Sorry.
00:50:10I sometimes get carried away with talented teams.
00:50:12Well then, let's crunch some numbers, shall we?
00:50:20Yes, I'm sure.
00:50:21We'll be looking at budget-wise.
00:50:30Hey.
00:50:30Great job on today's pitch.
00:50:32It was a team effort.
00:50:34You still have some work to do, though?
00:50:35Looking forward to launching it.
00:50:36They've been at this non-stop, ready to get some rest.
00:50:41Well, you still had time to find the handsome lawyer.
00:50:46Wait, you 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.
00:50:53I 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.
00:51:09But it's all behind me.
00:51:11Don't worry.
00:51:11Okay.
00:51:23Stalking now, Mr. Whiteford?
00:51:34Just a coincidence, Miss Morris.
00:51:36See, um, I live here too.
00:51:40Yeah, right.
00:51:44Hey!
00:51:44Hey!
00:51:53Can you give me some space?
00:52:01Just be your neighbor, Lee.
00:52:05When did you move here?
00:52:07Because I was under the impression that this space housed one.
00:52:12Now it houses two.
00:52:13Oh, what a coincidence.
00:52:24I live here too.
00:52:27Guess what?
00:52:28My passcode is still Fiona.
00:52:30Is his passcode still Fiona?
00:52:33Stop.
00:52:34Why do you care?
00:52:37Uh.
00:52:38Turn 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.
00:53:06Eat a ride with some Morris?
00:53:08No, thank you.
00:53:10I prefer to walk.
00:53:11Are you kidding?
00:53:12It's about to rain.
00:53:13Come on.
00:53:25Is he dead?
00:53:27He seemed really occupied yesterday.
00:53:30The deal was a quiet ride.
00:53:32No.
00:53:34You know, I have a tip for your product, if you're interested.
00:53:38Okay, 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 can help.
00:53:51You're right.
00:53:53We wanted simplicity, but maybe too much, though.
00:53:57It's a good approach, but you need to experiment, but you've always been a rule breaker, Mabel.
00:54:02It's a good approach, but you know, I don't know.
00:54:10No.
00:54:10Mr. Whiteford, it's urgent.
00:54:12Please come home.
00:54:13Your mother's condition is critical.

01:01:52hey Jonathan
01:02:11what's up
01:02:12Hey, Jonathan. Sup? Hey, why did you leave the company and all of your shares? What?
01:02:24Facial recognition successful. Welcome, Mabel.
01:02:42Where's Jonathan? He has moved away. He is, I quote, giving you space. He moved? Where? I'm afraid I don't know. He really left everything behind. He said it would be for the best.
01:03:12He's right. Maybe it is for the best.
01:03:33I found the programmer that you've been looking for. Here's everything on him. The best we could dig up.
01:03:40Hey, you need to learn to take some more breaks.
01:03:42I'm setting the bar way too high for the rest of us.
01:03:50I'll slow down once we've got more skilled people like this one working for us.
01:04:04I'm going to push the little seat.
01:04:06Facial recognition successful. Welcome, Mabel.
01:04:17Nice work, Jonathan.
01:04:30Mabel.
01:04:31Hi.
01:04:34How did you...
01:04:35Weeks ago, we discovered a mysterious programmer.
01:04:38Their work was outstanding. Their work was outstanding. I just had to know who it was.
01:04:45Sorry. I, uh, got bored. I wanted something to do.
01:04:51Your coding gave you away. It felt familiar. Like you.
01:04:55The way the numbers and figures went together, I don't know, it kind of felt romantic.
01:05:03Why did you leave everything behind? Don't you miss it?
01:05:06I wanted to fix my mistakes.
01:05:11To help you.
01:05:15I want you to be happy, Mabel.
01:05:19You left without saying goodbye.
01:05:21I know.
01:05:22I'm sorry.
01:05:22I knew you wouldn't forgive me if I left that.
01:05:26I needed to distance myself from you.
01:05:28That was the only way I knew how to forget you.
01:05:32You succeeded?
01:05:36No.
01:05:36I'm good.
01:05:43Julie.
01:05:43At Novatec, we offer competitive pay and flexible schedules with remote opportunities and free meals.
01:05:56Sounds good.
01:05:58Here's more.
01:05:59We have benefits, like honeymoon leave and childcare 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.
01:06:26Also, 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.
