00:00:00Today's biggest news, Jonathan Whiteford, the city's golden bachelor, is set to marry his long-time fiancée, Julie Miller, uniting New York's most elite families.
00:00:19This is Amber Wilson from J.K.R. News.
00:00:21Mr. Whiteford, your meeting is in 30 minutes.
00:00:36You smoking cigarettes?
00:00:40It's an important meeting. We need to get ready.
00:00:43It could be a little softer in the morning.
00:00:46Nolan likes a buzzkill.
00:00:49Good morning to you, too.
00:00:51I've never had Mediterranean food before.
00:00:57So he immediately takes me to this restaurant on 45th.
00:01:01Mmm, Jonathan, he's quite romantic.
00:01:04And then what?
00:01:05Oh.
00:01:07Mabel, right?
00:01:08Sorry I didn't take your seat. Come join us.
00:01:11We were just chatting about my amazing weekend with Jonathan.
00:01:14Oh, Mabel would know. She schedules everything.
00:01:17Oh, right. His personal assistant.
00:01:22It's nice to meet you.
00:01:23I'm Julie Miller, Jonathan's fiancée.
00:01:26Nice to meet you, Miss Miller.
00:01:29Being his assistant doesn't mean getting personal.
00:01:33Take this as...
00:01:34I've heard so many wonderful things about you, Mabel.
00:01:40Julie.
00:01:43What are you doing here?
00:01:44It's just a surprise visit for my lovely fiancée.
00:01:58Julie, I thought we discussed about keeping boundaries.
00:02:01In front of everyone, play the part, Jonathan.
00:02:05We're engaged, remember?
00:02:06Mabel, are you ready for the meeting?
00:02:10Yes, everything's prepared.
00:02:12Good. I want you to take the lead this time.
00:02:14Lead the meeting?
00:02:15Yes, you've earned it.
00:02:17Feel up for it?
00:02:19Absolutely.
00:02:22Thank you, Mr. Whiteford.
00:02:23I don't need formalities. Come on, let's go.
00:02:25We're going to be late.
00:02:30Always work first with him, huh?
00:02:31Ooh.
00:02:33Hey.
00:02:34Hey.
00:02:36Oh, well, well.
00:02:48Congratulations on nailing the pitch, Mabel.
00:02:51Well, I learned from the best.
00:03:01Hey.
00:03:06Is he as usual, Jonathan?
00:03:12Mom!
00:03:14I thought we agreed on calling first.
00:03:17Since when do I need permission to see my son, hmm?
00:03:21What's the matter?
00:03:22We are hosting a joint family dinner with the Millers.
00:03:27You and Julie are expected to be there.
00:03:28We agreed to delay the engagement.
00:03:30This is not up for debate.
00:03:32You will attend the family dinner.
00:03:38And you should join us well, Mabel.
00:03:41How did you get your hotel a few days?
00:03:52Let's see.
00:03:53Let's see.
00:03:53Let's see.
00:03:53If we go again.
00:03:53Let's see.
00:03:54Let's see.
00:03:54Let's see.
00:03:54Let's see.
00:03:59A toast.
00:04:01To the union.
00:04:05Mabel, can you pull me some wine?
00:04:08Mabel's a guest.
00:04:08Of course.
00:04:10Miss Miller?
00:04:11A soon-to-be Mrs. Whiteford.
00:04:14Dad, I'm still your daughter.
00:04:17We are so excited to welcome you into our family.
00:04:22This is the first joyful dinner we've had since Fiona.
00:04:29With Jonathan and Julie together, it almost feels like Fiona is with us here again.
00:04:42Mom.
00:04:44We are so looking forward to this marriage.
00:04:50I'm full.
00:04:52Please enjoy.
00:04:52You're okay?
00:05:12Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:05:14I thought you were someone else.
00:05:16Who were you looking for?
00:05:18Jonathan Whiteford.
00:05:20The owner of the mansion.
00:05:21You, uh, must be his girlfriend.
00:05:24No, just his assistant.
00:05:26I see.
00:05:27I'm Ryan.
00:05:28My father is the gardener here.
00:05:30I know the house really well.
00:05:31I actually may be able to help you.
00:05:33Jonathan has a few favorite spots around here.
00:05:36Though he doesn't visit much nowadays, he does have quite a few properties.
00:05:41Yes, he prefers to live alone.
00:05:43Is that so?
00:05:44Oh, good.
00:05:45You've met.
00:05:47I was thinking of setting you two up on a date.
00:05:50You make a cute couple.
00:06:01Petite?
00:06:02Yes, Mabel.
00:06:04Ryan's a fine young man, and you're a diligent worker.
00:06:08You make a good match.
00:06:09Well, it's a kind offer, but I'm not interested in dating anyone right now.
00:06:15No offense.
00:06:16None taken.
00:06:18Anyway, I should go find Jonathan.
00:06:19He has a very early meeting.
00:06:24Mabel, you're a smart girl.
00:06:26I know how busy you've been serving my son.
00:06:31What fun you've had.
00:06:33I don't understand.
00:06:34Let me clarify.
00:06:36You're barely a side dish.
00:06:38Now the main course is served.
00:06:41Stay away from my son.
00:06:44Or lose your position at the company and be blacklisted elsewhere.
00:06:48Have I made myself clear?
00:06:49Now, about you and Ryan.
00:06:57You're quite the pair.
00:07:00I can foresee a wedding in the near future.
00:07:01Morning.
00:07:20The files are ready for you to sign.
00:07:29Were you okay last night?
00:07:31What's on my schedule for today?
00:07:37One meeting in the morning, two in the afternoon, and Julie wants a dinner date.
00:07:44I've set up calendar alerts.
00:07:59You're wearing a new perfume today.
00:08:01You're not the only one inclined for a bit of romance.
00:08:17Jonathan.
00:08:28Before we start, you should know that I am a messy eater.
00:08:33And I hate cats.
00:08:34I'm also indifferent to humanity and climate change.
00:08:40We can just agree that this wasn't a match.
00:08:42And that's your strategy for tonight?
00:08:44Tell me more about yourself.
00:08:47What do you want to know?
00:08:48Family?
00:08:49My mom died, and my father is a gambler.
00:08:52You'd inherit his debts at the altar.
00:08:53Delightful company you are.
00:08:57I'm walking my flock.
00:08:59Who knows?
00:08:59I might even become an abuser.
00:09:01An abuser?
00:09:03Do you use ropes?
00:09:04What?
00:09:05What?
00:09:06You see, I enjoy being tied up, so I'm rather intrigued.
00:09:11Uh, weirdo.
00:09:13Says Miss Monsterdate.
00:09:15You're Jack's son.
00:09:28He was such a talented gardener.
00:09:31A favorite servant of mine growing up.
00:09:34If you don't mind, we're on a date.
00:09:36Oh, and having fun, I see.
00:09:38We would be, without any interruptions.
00:09:52I'm on my way.
00:09:54Okay, sorry.
00:09:56I have to go.
00:09:59Mabel.
00:10:05Excuse me, hi, I'm here for my father, Mr. Morris.
00:10:07What happened?
00:10:08He's stable now.
00:10:10The creditors got rough with him.
00:10:12Broke a couple ribs, but he's breathing.
00:10:15How do I pay for the bills?
00:10:18They've been paid for.
00:10:20By whom?
00:10:25Ryan.
00:10:26What are you doing here?
00:10:28To finish the date.
00:10:30I'm starving.
00:10:32It's a very expensive date.
00:10:35I'll pay you back.
00:10:36Later.
00:10:37For now, let's get something to eat.
00:10:49So, you grew up in the Whiteford Mansion?
00:10:52Yeah, I did.
00:10:54I helped my dad with the gardens, and we planted exotic flowers from around the world.
00:10:59Paradise for plant geeks, for sure.
00:11:01Sounds super nerdy.
00:11:02You were serious about your father's debts, right here.
00:11:11He was a gambler.
00:11:14He's changed, but it still haunts us.
00:11:18I just hope to one day settle the debts.
00:11:20You were not the terrible person you made yourself out to be.
00:11:22You've known me for one day.
00:11:25Hold your conclusions, Sherlock.
00:11:29Well, this is me.
00:11:33Um, goodnight, nerd.
00:11:36Goodnight, monster date.
00:11:37It's late.
00:11:48Where you been?
00:11:55Were you out with them all night?
00:11:57It's my personal time.
00:11:59I don't have to report everything to you.
00:12:01So, it went well, then.
00:12:03Your mother set us up, Jonathan.
00:12:05How could I refuse?
00:12:06Good.
00:12:07So, then, it was all just for show.
00:12:09Well, I actually had a really nice time.
00:12:11I might consider a second date.
00:12:14I can still smell Julie's perfume.
00:12:16Then come shower it off me.
00:12:19You went on a date with another man.
00:12:21And you took another woman to a restaurant that I recommended.
00:12:24Jealous?
00:12:24Not as much as you.
00:12:26I don't know.
00:12:54Morning.
00:13:02Coffee or tea?
00:13:04Uh, coffee.
00:13:10You never make me breakfast.
00:13:14Last night must have been record-breaking.
00:13:19I mean...
00:13:20I'm breaking up with you.
00:13:28What do you mean?
00:13:29Well, more of an ending than a breakup.
00:13:30Really, we need to stop.
00:13:32Whatever this is.
00:13:34What about our last night?
00:13:37Consider it a breakup gift.
00:13:39Breakup?
00:13:39We weren't even together.
00:13:40Exactly.
00:13:41Exactly.
00:13:45Shouldn't be too hard to move on.
00:13:50Happy 7th Anniversary, Mabel!
00:14:03Anniversary?
00:14:05Yeah, I mean, 7 years at Webber.
00:14:08Time flies, doesn't it?
00:14:09Wow, it really has been that long.
00:14:11Time to cut the cake, Mabel.
00:14:13Hey!
00:14:13You guys are so sweet.
00:14:14What are you doing?
00:14:16What are you doing?
00:14:17Boss, it's her special day.
00:14:19So, we have the meeting with Harbour in an hour.
00:14:24Do your jobs!
00:14:25Do your jobs!
00:14:49Do your jobs!
00:15:50Hello, this is Mabel.
00:15:58Evening, Mabel.
00:16:00Ryan, what an honor.
00:16:02You want to grab dinner together?
00:16:03Just as friends, of course.
00:16:05I'm not up for another dramatic date.
00:16:08Sure, why not?
00:16:10Where are we going?
00:16:11I know the perfect spot.
00:16:13I'll text you.
00:16:14See you soon.
00:16:14I'm so glad we got to try this place again.
00:16:20This is amazing.
00:16:22I know.
00:16:23I think it has some drugs in it.
00:16:25It'd be weird if they didn't.
00:16:26How could it be so addictive?
00:16:29How have you been lately?
00:16:31Can't complain.
00:16:33Because you signed an NDA?
00:16:34Or because you are happy?
00:16:36The latter.
00:16:38Although, if I did sign an NDA, I couldn't really share otherwise.
00:16:42Goodbye.
00:16:43This is true.
00:16:45Hey, I asked you out on a date for a reason.
00:16:48I think we would make excellent business partners.
00:16:51Business partners?
00:16:52Yeah.
00:16:53Well, I was just saying, our first date was rather chaotic.
00:16:56So I wasn't able to properly introduce myself to you.
00:17:01I'm Ryan Anderson.
00:17:02I'm the founder of Novatec.
00:17:04And I would like for you to join us as head of the creative strategies.
00:17:08Novatec?
00:17:14Novatec?
00:17:16But I thought you said you were...
00:17:18The gardener's son?
00:17:18Yes, I still am, but I'm not defined by what my father does.
00:17:23Even if Barbara thinks so.
00:17:26After years of education and, well, hard work, I find myself at MIT and started my own company.
00:17:33It's good to own something of your own, right?
00:17:35That's incredible, Ryan.
00:17:37And I'm grateful for the opportunity, but I already have a job.
00:17:41And I'm just an assistant.
00:17:43So I'm sure there are other people much more qualified than me out there.
00:17:47You're not just anyone.
00:17:49You're the key success to the Whitefruits project.
00:17:52It's time for you to get outside of Jonathan's shadow.
00:17:56So, cheers to chasing what you truly deserve.
00:18:01Miss Whiteford, um, Jonathan's left for the evening.
00:18:20I'm here to see you.
00:18:23How was everything with Ryan?
00:18:25It was pleasant.
00:18:27Thank you for the introduction.
00:18:28When do you plan to marry him?
00:18:31We've only just met.
00:18:34I've warned you.
00:18:36No marriage.
00:18:39No job at Whiteford Tech.
00:18:42And you will be banned from the industry.
00:18:45I've ended things with Jonathan.
00:18:47Then marry Ryan to prove it.
00:18:48I've done my research as well, Mabel.
00:18:54Leave my son, and I'll clear all your father's debts.
00:19:00If not, those seeking him will find him.
00:19:05Perhaps Jonathan is the one who needs guidance, not me.
00:19:09I don't think you understand the situation.
00:19:13You are nothing to Jonathan.
00:19:16At most, a shadow of his past pain.
00:19:20A reminder of a heartbreak.
00:19:23What do you mean?
00:19:24You don't know, do you?
00:19:29Marry Ryan.
00:19:31It's my last warning.
00:19:32Did I miss some meeting?
00:19:51Uh, no.
00:19:56I just...
00:19:57Your driver couldn't get a hold of you.
00:19:59He was concerned.
00:20:01Mr. Whiteford, it's October 52nd.
00:20:02Oh, shit, shit.
00:20:03You never always take the day off.
00:20:07It's okay.
00:20:08The car's out front.
00:20:09No, no, it's not okay.
00:20:09I never forget...
00:20:11Just clear everything for today.
00:20:15Okay.
00:20:15I've kept your calendar clear, as always.
00:20:17Okay, thank you.
00:20:18Um, the car, Mr. Whiteford.
00:20:21Right.
00:20:22I'll, uh, see you.
00:20:23At the office?
00:20:24Right.
00:20:30Hello?
00:20:30Ava, where are you?
00:20:32Our server is...
00:20:33Oh, uh, okay, I'm on my way.
00:20:40The entire server crashed.
00:20:42Where is Mr. Whiteford?
00:20:44Hey, what happened?
00:20:45We are under attack.
00:20:47We need a system reboot.
00:20:47Where is Mr. Whiteford?
00:20:49We need his admin code.
00:20:50Now.
00:20:50Okay, he's out of the office.
00:20:52Um, let me just try contacting him, okay?
00:20:57We need that code.
00:20:58Do you have access to it?
00:21:00No, that code is highly confidential.
00:21:01Jonathan is the sole owner.
00:21:03Um, let me try.
00:21:12What else?
00:21:13We're completely offline.
00:21:15Come on, Mabel.
00:21:16You know you the best.
00:21:16Okay, a moment.
00:21:21Try Fiona.
00:21:22F-I-O-N-A.
00:21:26Fiona.
00:21:28Give it a shot.
00:21:31Fiona.
00:21:33Give it a shot.
00:21:34Remember that awkward dinner at the Whiteford's?
00:21:41Since Fiona, you are nothing to Jonathan.
00:21:46At most, a shadow of his past pain.
00:21:50A reminder of a heartbreak.
00:21:52Hello, Jonathan.
00:22:02Good to see you.
00:22:05How may I help you?
00:22:08Did Jonathan model this whole thing after you?
00:22:11Oh, no.
00:22:12That's not Mabel.
00:22:16That's my sister, Fiona.
00:22:17Jonathan's first love.
00:22:34Uh, next, Mabel Morris.
00:22:35Hello.
00:22:37Hello.
00:22:38Hello.
00:22:38You know, coding demands intense focus and absolute silence.
00:22:57That's why having a capable assistant to help with other things like interviews is crucial.
00:23:10I'm Mabel Morris, Mr. Whiteford.
00:23:24Here's my resume.
00:23:27Mabel.
00:23:28It's nice to meet you.
00:23:43When can you start?
00:23:46Tomorrow.
00:23:47No, actually, today.
00:23:50Welcome to Whiteford Tech.
00:23:53Mabel.
00:23:53Mabel.
00:23:55Mabel.
00:23:57Mabel.
00:23:58Are you all right?
00:24:07I know.
00:24:08Shocking, isn't it?
00:24:11You know, when they mentioned you years ago, I was concerned.
00:24:15I thought you had actually fallen for someone.
00:24:18But then I saw you, and I knew there was nothing to worry about.
00:24:23To Jonathan, you're just a reminder of my sister.
00:24:27He doesn't love you.
00:24:27You're nothing but a shadow to him.
00:24:29You are, at best, a placebo.
00:24:32Oh, Mabel.
00:24:37Did you actually think you stood a chance?
00:24:39You pathetic slut.
00:24:45Fuck off.
00:24:46Oh, do you know about today?
00:24:53I don't want to know.
00:24:54Fiona died today seven years ago.
00:24:57He visits her grave on this day every year.
00:25:00You see, you're just a joke.
00:25:06You're just a joke.
00:25:06Hey, Mabel.
00:25:28There was an attack on the system at work today.
00:25:40Okay.
00:25:41Well, since you're here and not at the office, I assume it's resolved.
00:25:45Your passcode.
00:25:47Your passcode.
00:25:49What is it?
00:25:51What?
00:25:52The code, Jonathan, what is it?
00:25:54That's none of your business.
00:25:59Come on.
00:26:00Uh, tell me about this attack.
00:26:01So, it's been fixed.
00:26:10We had to restart the system.
00:26:13System reboot.
00:26:15I see.
00:26:16It asked for an admin code.
00:26:18Why didn't you call me?
00:26:19I tried to, but it didn't go through.
00:26:23Signal down there.
00:26:24We got the code.
00:26:28We did.
00:26:30How?
00:26:31Luckily, Julie was there.
00:26:39So, you've seen...
00:26:41Fiona?
00:26:46Yeah.
00:26:51Fiona?
00:26:54Yeah.
00:26:57Mabel.
00:26:59I know you have a lot of questions.
00:27:01Actually,
00:27:02I found a lot of answers today.
00:27:08I thought I was lucky.
00:27:12To have that job.
00:27:15To work at the company.
00:27:16To be by your side.
00:27:20To enter a relationship with you or whatever that was.
00:27:24But it turns out.
00:27:29I was just a replacement.
00:27:31No.
00:27:31A replacement for some sick, twisted obsession that you can't get over.
00:27:35That's not it at all.
00:27:35I'm shadowing for a dead girlfriend.
00:27:40All those years.
00:27:43When you've been.
00:27:43You're fucking a ghost.
00:27:47Mia!
00:27:49Don't speak.
00:27:51Don't use that term.
00:27:53Dead.
00:27:54Ghost.
00:27:55That's the reality of it, Jonathan.
00:27:58She is both.
00:27:59I'm Mabel Morris.
00:28:07I'm not.
00:28:10I'm not your dead girlfriend.
00:28:12I'm not Siona.
00:28:13You're right.
00:28:22You're not her.
00:28:25Nobody is.
00:28:26Yes.
00:28:26I've submitted my resignation.
00:28:40Thank you for the opportunity.
00:28:43Years ago I learned a lot.
00:28:47Bye, Mr. Whiteford.
00:28:48You said you were a friend of Mr. Morris's?
00:29:19A friend of his daughter, Mabel, actually.
00:29:20Ah, yes, Mabel.
00:29:22She's quite sweet and caring.
00:29:24Absolutely.
00:29:25She asked me to come check on Scott.
00:29:28How's his condition?
00:29:29He's well.
00:29:32With a little rest, he should recover fully.
00:29:35That's good news.
00:29:47He's at Silver Pine Hospital.
00:29:49Tell his creditors.
00:29:51I knew you had it in you.
00:29:54Oh, Mrs. Whiteford, I was just...
00:29:56Spare me the excuses, Julie.
00:30:00I've seen what you're capable of.
00:30:03Years ago.
00:30:04Oh, Mrs. Whiteford, there's been a misunderstanding.
00:30:16Oh, enough.
00:30:17Julie, cut it.
00:30:18Fiona was sweet, but too naive for our world.
00:30:26Her innocence was a liability.
00:30:27I tried separating Jonathan and Fiona for years.
00:30:31But Jonathan was so invested.
00:30:33Even ignoring this family to pursue his little tech project, all encouraged by Fiona.
00:30:41Luckily, his project succeeded.
00:30:42But not without him taking down his father's legacy first.
00:30:47We could have been so much more influential, so powerful.
00:30:50But just when I thought all was lost, Fiona was out of the picture.
00:30:58Her death was no coincidence, Julie.
00:31:03God plays no favors.
00:31:04I see your hand in her car accident.
00:31:11How long have you known?
00:31:12Oh, Julie.
00:31:15I've known from the start.
00:31:16What happened?
00:31:23He's...
00:31:23His debt collector's caught up to him.
00:31:26Are you okay?
00:31:27Prepare for the worst.
00:31:28He's lost a lot of blood.
00:31:31How did he find him?
00:31:32Someone must tip him off.
00:31:34We're investigating.
00:31:34We'll do our best to locate his attackers.
00:31:37I've warned you.
00:31:39This is speaking of my fight.
00:31:43It's Barbara Whiteford.
00:31:45The Barbara Whiteford.
00:31:46Queen of Manhattan.
00:31:48She's after my father.
00:31:49That's a serious accusation, ma'am.
00:31:52Respectfully, your father's not significant enough for her to waste.
00:31:55You don't understand.
00:31:56I got too close to her son and she told me...
00:31:59Please calm down.
00:32:00No, you don't understand.
00:32:01Please, please.
00:32:02Miss Morris?
00:32:04Unfortunately, we couldn't save your father.
00:32:07He passed away.
00:32:12No.
00:32:12No.
00:32:13You left the day.
00:32:21No.
00:32:22No.
00:32:22You don't wanna get off.
00:32:23You don't wanna say anything.
00:32:24No.
00:32:26No.
00:32:30Mom, after you left, Dad was never the same.
00:32:50When you left us, I lost you.
00:32:55I always thought it would get better, but it didn't.
00:33:10I'm sorry.
00:33:14I feel like a nobody.
00:33:19I feel that everything.
00:33:25Leave me alone.
00:33:42We got food from your favorite place.
00:33:47You don't have to talk to me, but please eat something.
00:33:50I can't eat all that food by myself.
00:34:06I'm only going to ask you once, and I'll leave you be.
00:34:10But are you okay?
00:34:12Do you want to talk about it?
00:34:13I'm managing.
00:34:17The food helped.
00:34:23You don't have to smile if you don't want to.
00:34:26It's so good I feel vulnerable.
00:34:28We all have our moments.
00:34:30It's just...
00:34:32It's been incredibly hard.
00:34:35I get it.
00:34:38And I'm sorry you're going through all of this.
00:34:42I've lost a loved one, too.
00:34:44Great.
00:34:45Do you have a dead girlfriend also?
00:34:47A dead girlfriend?
00:34:47Wait.
00:34:49You knew about Jonathan and Fiona.
00:34:51So you knew.
00:34:52You knew all this time.
00:34:54But you two are completely different.
00:34:55I didn't lose a lover.
00:35:03It was my mother I lost.
00:35:07Ryan, I'm sorry.
00:35:09It's okay.
00:35:12This whole week is just...
00:35:14Everything...
00:35:17It feels so pointless.
00:35:19That's a natural feeling to have.
00:35:21I used to mock existentialism.
00:35:24I get it now.
00:35:26I love how intelligent you sound.
00:35:29Even now.
00:35:30Stop.
00:35:32No, seriously.
00:35:34Modern day Socrates.
00:35:37Thank you, Ryan.
00:35:47Thank you, Ryan.
00:35:49For the food and the talk.
00:35:52Less of the food.
00:35:54It's still so addictive.
00:35:56Oh, they definitely put drugs in it.
00:35:57Yeah.
00:35:58Hey.
00:35:59Hey, if you need anything, just call me.
00:36:03I will.
00:36:04I think I just need some time to think things over.
00:36:07Have you considered your next steps?
00:36:10Not sure.
00:36:12Quit my job.
00:36:13Settled the debts.
00:36:14Now the world's just kind of open to me.
00:36:17Strange.
00:36:17Yeah.
00:36:18Well, there's a spot for you at Novatec.
00:36:21Sure?
00:36:22About me leading?
00:36:23You're the best one to lead it.
00:36:25Come on, just give it a shot.
00:36:27I'll think about it.
00:36:28Seriously.
00:36:29That's all I can ask.
00:36:29Okay.
00:36:30Okay.
00:36:30Okay.
00:36:30Okay.
00:36:31Bye.
00:36:37Mabel?
00:36:39Are you doing okay?
00:36:42Why aren't you here?
00:36:45Mabel?
00:36:46Are you doing okay?
00:36:50Why are you here?
00:36:52I saw what happened on the news and I...
00:36:54You're worried?
00:36:56Save it.
00:36:56It's none of your business.
00:36:57Mabel, please, let me just...
00:36:59I'm done.
00:37:01Listening, Jonathan.
00:37:03I spent so much time on something that wasn't real.
00:37:09And now I finally know the truth.
00:37:12I thought what we had was real.
00:37:14But I was just a pill for a wound that won't heal.
00:37:24I truly loved you, Jonathan.
00:37:32Don't come looking for me again.
00:37:35Leave me alone.
00:37:36It's my final request.
00:37:46And this is the upstairs division.
00:37:49I can see it.
00:37:50What do you think?
00:37:51Love it.
00:37:52It's so lively.
00:37:54That's the goal.
00:37:55Hey, I'm in.
00:37:57But I have one condition.
00:37:58I'd like to work from a different city.
00:38:01Why is that?
00:38:02Well, I hear you're expanding to Tokyo.
00:38:05That's where you're headed, right?
00:38:06Someone's been doing her homework.
00:38:08And for a new market, it's important to have someone you trust by your side.
00:38:12I'm listening.
00:38:13We'll go all look at our heat, though, what?
00:38:16You know?
00:38:18How cool it is, then.
00:38:20Welcome to the table.
00:38:21What an honor, Captain.
00:38:22Let me show you around.
00:38:23Sir, you have a meeting with the creative team in 15 minutes.
00:38:36Right.
00:38:39Bring me their pitch deck and latest progress report.
00:38:42And see if Mabel is ready for the creative discussion.
00:38:45Sir, Mabel doesn't work here anymore.
00:38:48I can get someone else to help with...
00:38:53She can't be replaced.
00:39:02There's no one like her.
00:39:08Why don't you start on the living room?
00:39:13What?
00:39:16What is happening here?
00:39:17We're just doing our job, sir.
00:39:19Please don't interrupt.
00:39:21Where are these going?
00:39:22They're going to the donation.
00:39:23Fiona already left.
00:39:33Get out.
00:39:35Ben?
00:39:36You're a mess.
00:39:39You do not want to talk.
00:39:43You haven't been this way since Fiona.
00:39:46Why are you this upset over a fleeting affair?
00:39:48Just move on.
00:39:49Find some...
00:39:49Mabel wasn't some fleeting affair.
00:39:51She's clearly just a fill-in for Fiona.
00:39:54Nothing more than her look-alike.
00:39:55She's different.
00:39:57Funny.
00:39:58Professional.
00:39:59She makes me feel good about myself.
00:40:00She's...
00:40:01She's Mabel.
00:40:03And I actually like her for who she is.
00:40:05What about our engagement?
00:40:16Julie...
00:40:16When Fiona left, I was lost.
00:40:22I would never marry you having some fleeting feelings for her.
00:40:26That's not right for either one of us.
00:40:27No, no, no.
00:40:28You don't determine that.
00:40:29Jonathan, I have dreamed of our marriage since the day we met.
00:40:32I sacrificed so much for that dream.
00:40:34I lost everything.
00:40:38What do you mean by that?
00:40:39Nothing.
00:40:41Nothing.
00:40:41I just...
00:40:42I can't stay to see you, like...
00:40:43What are you hiding?
00:40:44Nothing.
00:40:45I was just saying that...
00:40:46Did you have something to do with Mabel leaving?
00:40:48I don't have to answer your accusations.
00:40:50You're delusional.
00:40:50Did you?
00:40:54This is silly.
00:40:58Baby, we'll talk about this tomorrow, okay?
00:41:04Just sleep this off, and we'll talk tomorrow.
00:41:07Hey, give me the visitor's list for Mabel's father's death.
00:41:21It's urgent.
00:41:26The hospital's footage was erased, but a doctor remembers a young woman claiming to be Mabel's friend.
00:41:31A young woman?
00:41:33Yes, sir.
00:41:34A detailed description matches Miss Miller.
00:41:40Julie.
00:41:41Should I contact Miss Miller for confirmation?
00:41:43No, don't bother.
00:41:44Any news on Mabel's location?
00:41:48She just purchased tickets for...
00:41:51Many destinations.
00:41:53Where is she currently?
00:41:55Last known location...
00:41:57She's in a cab to JFK Airport.
00:41:58Get the car ready.
00:41:59Now.
00:42:04Okay, pull over.
00:42:09Right here.
00:42:09Stop.
00:42:11Mabel!
00:42:13Are you insane?
00:42:14What the hell are you doing?
00:42:21Mabel, where are you?
00:42:22You understand.
00:42:23You don't know.
00:42:24You understand.
00:42:24You don't know.
00:42:26Goodbye.
00:42:26Wait, Mabel.
00:42:29Mabel.
00:42:30Mabel, where...
00:42:31Did you know about Mabel's departure?
00:42:41I know she left with Ryan Anderson, the servant's son.
00:42:45It's a good match.
00:42:46You should be happy for her.
00:42:47Were you part of this?
00:42:51Jonathan.
00:42:52Mabel made her own choice.
00:42:54No one pushed her.
00:42:56She has her life.
00:42:57We have ours.
00:42:59They don't intersect.
00:43:02Remember, you have responsibilities.
00:43:03The wedding's next month.
00:43:05I won't marry Julie.
00:43:07I won't be a pawn in your plan.
00:43:10I love Mabel.
00:43:13She's the one I want.
00:43:14She is merely a stand-in for Fiona.
00:43:16She's not!
00:43:17I know it's already too late, but my feelings for her are real.
00:43:26I'll wait for her.
00:43:28I'll wait as long as it takes, because this is my life!
00:43:33And I'll spend it with Mabel.
00:43:34Mabel, turn it off.
00:43:57Mabel!
00:43:58Okay, you lazy bone.
00:44:02Come on.
00:44:03There's a meeting to attend to.
00:44:06I programmed you too well, didn't I?
00:44:08I learned it myself.
00:44:10Exactly.
00:44:11That's why I said I programmed you too well.
00:44:13Show off.
00:44:14The driver is ten minutes away.
00:44:30Got it.
00:44:33Put some clothes on.
00:44:36You can't see me, right?
00:44:38Don't need to.
00:44:40I know you too well.
00:44:42I can make you more dumber.
00:44:43Heard that.
00:44:47Incoming call from Mrs. Whiteford.
00:44:51What are you through?
00:44:52Mr. Whiteford, it's urgent.
00:44:54Please come home.
00:44:55Your mother's condition is critical.
00:45:07What happened?
00:45:08She suffered a stroke last week.
00:45:11Mom.
00:45:12Mom.
00:45:13She'll recover, right?
00:45:15She's alright, for now.
00:45:17But she might not speak again.
00:45:19What?
00:45:21A severe stroke, Mr. Whiteford.
00:45:23She's lucky she's even breathing.
00:45:27Sweet.
00:45:30Hi.
00:45:30What can I do to help?
00:45:35Keep her calm.
00:45:36She's a fighter.
00:45:38She might be able to pull through.
00:45:40Mabel, this is my father who I've been telling you about.
00:45:50Mabel, it's such a pleasure.
00:45:52Ryan's told me so much about you.
00:45:54Likewise.
00:45:55He's going on about those unique seeds that you've been planting.
00:45:59He's kind of nerdy.
00:45:59He's kind of nerdy sometimes.
00:46:02Oh, so nerdy.
00:46:03Mabel.
00:46:04Hey.
00:46:04When did you return?
00:46:19Mabel, we can leave with your...
00:46:21No need.
00:46:22We're just chatting.
00:46:25Jonathan, it's nice to see you.
00:46:27I was just looking for you.
00:46:28You deliberately ignored my request.
00:46:31I asked to be left alone.
00:46:32Mabel, I just wanted to sort things out.
00:46:34Everything was sorted.
00:46:36It's all behind us.
00:46:37Um, hey, Jonathan, they're just here to visit an old man.
00:46:44Isn't that okay?
00:46:46Dad, this is your home as well.
00:46:47We don't need his approval.
00:46:49Actually, Jack, I was thinking you should come live in the city with us.
00:46:52I see you two.
00:46:53You live together, huh?
00:46:55It's not your business.
00:46:57Mabel, I just wanted to...
00:46:58I see you haven't changed.
00:47:02Sorry, Jack.
00:47:03I just remembered I have a phone call that I need to meet.
00:47:08Mabel.
00:47:14We can talk about it, you know?
00:47:16About the product launch?
00:47:18My only concern is the interface.
00:47:19It's not user-friendly enough.
00:47:21Mabel, it's okay to be upset with Jonathan.
00:47:24No need to hide it.
00:47:25He's just a competitor now.
00:47:27Speaking of which, the new app at White4Tech is dominating the charts.
00:47:30We should look into that.
00:47:31Can I ask you something?
00:47:33If you're going to say something irritating, I'm not interested.
00:47:37Do you still have feelings for Jonathan?
00:47:42He broke my heart once.
00:47:45I'm not going to give him a second chance.
00:47:46This is Mabel.
00:47:58Head of Creatives.
00:47:59Nice to meet the team.
00:48:01We've heard many great things about you, Mabel.
00:48:03Your products are so exciting.
00:48:06We always try our very best to insure.
00:48:10Good morning.
00:48:11What are you doing here?
00:48:13Mr. Whiteford, welcome.
00:48:17Mr. Whiteford's our angel investor.
00:48:20He's shown great interest in this product and requested to join us at this meeting.
00:48:25I hope that isn't a problem, Mr. Anderson.
00:48:26Considering the product is still under testing, we typically limit our attendance.
00:48:32He's welcome to join.
00:48:34I'm intrigued to hear Mr. Whiteford's thoughts.
00:48:37His insight is invaluable.
00:48:41Do you mind if I take a seat?
00:48:42I love being part of the creative process.
00:48:43What 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
00:48:57your afternoon with us at Novatec.
00:48:59We are thrilled to be doing business with you.
00:49:04Well, this sounds like a game changer.
00:49:07Congratulations.
00:49:09Mr. Whiteford, do your thoughts?
00:49:14It's good.
00:49:16Surely, as a leader in this industry, you have more to offer than good.
00:49:21I don't think it's my place to say more.
00:49:24If we always play it safe, we'll never achieve perfection.
00:49:30You've grown a lot, Mabel.
00:49:33It's a strong product, but not yet a market leader.
00:49:37But there's potential.
00:49:40Your menu needs more clarity.
00:49:41Your menu needs affecting your overall product.
00:49:44You need to improve the interactive system.
00:49:47It's far too average.
00:49:48And the interface needs to be more user-friendly.
00:49:51You know this.
00:49:51But overall, truly, truly, well done.
00:49:59Proud of you.
00:50:01Professional boundaries, Mr. Whiteford.
00:50:04Sorry.
00:50:05I sometimes get carried away with talented teams.
00:50:12Well then, let's crunch some numbers, shall we?
00:50:15What are we looking at budget-wise?
00:50:17Hey, great job on today's pitch.
00:50:27It was a team effort.
00:50:29You still have some work to do, though?
00:50:30Looking forward to launching it.
00:50:33But then, it's non-stop.
00:50:34Ready to get some rest.
00:50:37Wow.
00:50:38You still had time to find the handsome lawyer.
00:50:40Wait, you knew about it.
00:50:43Ryan, you are the only guy who hasn't made a pass at me.
00:50:47I had my suspicions.
00:50:49I thought Barbara set us up for that reason, but she's clueless.
00:50:53Still hoping for a wedding.
00:50:55Um, I'll see you tomorrow.
00:50:58Absolutely.
00:50:59And hey, if you knew anything, especially about Jonathan, just ask.
00:51:04That is all behind me.
00:51:06Don't worry.
00:51:08Okay.
00:51:09Okay.
00:51:09Okay.
00:51:25Stalking now, Mr. Whiteford?
00:51:29Just a coincidence, Miss Morris.
00:51:31See, um, I live here too.
00:51:35Yeah, right.
00:51:39Hey!
00:51:52Can you give me some space?
00:51:55Just be a neighbor, Lee.
00:52:00When did you move here?
00:52:02Because I was under the impression that this space housed one.
00:52:08Now it housed two.
00:52:17Oh, what a coincidence.
00:52:20I live here too.
00:52:22Guess what?
00:52:23My passcode is still Fiona.
00:52:25Is his passcode still Fiona?
00:52:28Stop it.
00:52:29Why do you care?
00:52:30Oh.
00:52:39Do the lights, Mabel.
00:52:41That's an early night.
00:52:42Rough day?
00:52:43Actually, it's one of the best days of my life.
00:52:47Really?
00:52:48What happened?
00:52:51Good night, Mabel.
00:52:52You need a ride with some Morris?
00:53:04No, full deal.
00:53:05I prefer to walk.
00:53:06Are you kidding?
00:53:07It's about to rain.
00:53:08Come on.
00:53:11Is he dead?
00:53:21He seemed really occupied yesterday.
00:53:25The DL was a quiet ride.
00:53:28No.
00:53:29Now I have a tip for your product, if you're interested.
00:53:31Okay, fine.
00:53:37What is it?
00:53:38The interface needs a better visual hierarchy.
00:53:40The uniform font size is causing confusion, but...
00:53:44A little variation can help.
00:53:46You're right.
00:53:48We wanted simplicity, but...
00:53:50Maybe too much, though.
00:53:51It's a good approach, but...
00:53:54You need to experiment, but...
00:53:56You've always been a rule-breaker, Mabel.
00:54:05Mr. Whiteford, it's urgent.
00:54:08Please come home.
00:54:08Your mother's condition is critical.
00:54:21Her condition worsened.
00:54:24We thought it would be best if you were here.
00:54:29Is there anything that could be done for her?
00:54:33We've done everything.
00:54:36Her vitals are going quickly.
00:54:38I'm so sorry.
00:54:39I'm gonna get some medicine.
00:54:41Okay?
00:54:47Mom.
00:54:47Hey.
00:54:49I'm right here.
00:54:51John and I.
00:54:53Do you think there's anything we can give for you?
00:54:57I'm leaving you.
00:54:59No.
00:55:00No.
00:55:02You're fine.
00:55:03Okay, we're taking good care of you.
00:55:05My son.
00:55:08I'm truly sorry.
00:55:15You're the best mom I could ever have.
00:55:17I want you to be happy.
00:55:23I am happy.
00:55:25I'm happy.
00:55:29After Fiona, I saw how you suffered.
00:55:35I regret so many.
00:55:38I overlooked things after Fiona's death.
00:55:47And you changed so much.
00:55:51What do you mean, mom?
00:55:53Just promise me you'll be happy.
00:55:56With Mabel or anyone else.
00:55:58Promise me.
00:56:00Promise me.
00:56:06That it's time you learned the truth.
00:56:10About everything.
00:56:11Oh my god.
00:56:19It's official.
00:56:20My wife just died.
00:56:22Really?
00:56:23What happened?
00:56:24It was sudden.
00:56:26John and my wife just confirmed it.
00:56:28Are you okay?
00:56:30Um.
00:56:33I have to.
00:56:34Go.
00:56:34Take the date off.
00:56:35Facial recognition successful.
00:56:57Welcome, Mabel.
00:57:00Facial recognition, huh?
00:57:01Shall I look in?
00:57:11Why are you here?
00:57:18I saw the news.
00:57:21Are you okay?
00:57:23I'll manage.
00:57:25Do you need anything?
00:57:26Do you want to talk?
00:57:27Why are you here?
00:57:29Is it because you care?
00:57:31I understand what it feels like to lose a parent.
00:57:34But that's not why you're here.
00:57:37You care.
00:57:38Don't you?
00:57:40I was concerned.
00:57:42But if you're fine, I should go.
00:57:44Please don't go.
00:57:45Please.
00:57:46Have you been drinking?
00:57:48Jonathan, this is so inappropriate and legal.
00:57:50Mabel, Mabel, listen.
00:57:51Listening.
00:57:52Mabel signing in.
00:57:54How can I help, Jonathan?
00:57:57Son.
00:58:01What is that?
00:58:05Hello, Miss Morris.
00:58:06I'm Mabel.
00:58:07An AI modeled after you.
00:58:10Mabel!
00:58:10Mabel, stop!
00:58:13Wait.
00:58:14Wait.
00:58:19I'm sorry.
00:58:21I'm sorry.
00:58:22This was my way of coping with your absence.
00:58:24It was never meant to be discovered like this.
00:58:26Jonathan, this is too much.
00:58:36This isn't just obsession.
00:58:37This is unhealthy.
00:58:38I know.
00:58:39It's wrong.
00:58:43Please.
00:58:43I'll never bother you again.
00:58:45Just give me some time and I'll go.
00:58:47I swear.
00:58:48Are you okay, Jonathan?
00:58:54Yes.
00:58:56Yes.
00:59:12You were right about the rain.
00:59:13I swear.
00:59:13I swear.
00:59:18Outstanding, Mabel.
00:59:34This product will be a hit.
00:59:38Know Mr. Whiteford today?
00:59:42Yes.
00:59:43He wished to come, but couldn't make it.
00:59:45He was caught up with family matters.
00:59:48Did you hear about his mother?
00:59:53Good morning.
00:59:56I'm here to announce the passing of my mother, Barbara Whiteford, due to a severe stroke.
01:00:05It's a challenging time for our family and we appreciate your thoughts.
01:00:08While we mourn, I also need to address serious matters involving Julie Miller, a close associate
01:00:16of our family.
01:00:18Years ago, Fiona Miller, my then-girlfriend, and I developed a system named after her that
01:00:24laid the foundation for Whiteford Tech.
01:00:27Her untimely death, I've recently learned, was orchestrated by her sister, Julie Miller,
01:00:34with my mother's knowledge.
01:00:35Moreover, Julie Miller has been involved in other immoral acts.
01:00:44She hired gang members for violent acts and caused deep harm to someone close to my heart.
01:00:49However, I'm not seeking forgiveness for the family.
01:00:54I only want justice.
01:00:56Julie now stands trial for her actions.
01:00:59The Fiona system, pivotal in uncovering these truths, will now be decommissioned and made publicly
01:01:07available for the advancement of technology.
01:01:09It's time for fresh perspectives.
01:01:13I'm stepping down.
01:01:17Whiteford Tech will now be under Nova, led by Ryan Anderson and Mabel Morse, whose leadership
01:01:23and vision I trust.
01:01:26This will be my last public appearance.
01:01:28All my shares in Whiteford Tech will be transferred to Mabel Morse.
01:01:33The future is in her hands.
01:01:39So that's it.
01:01:44We are owners of the largest tech company in the country.
01:02:08Hey, Jonathan.
01:02:11What's up?
01:02:11Hey, why did you leave the company and all of your shares?
01:02:19What the...
01:02:19Too harsh.
01:02:22Facial recognition successful.
01:02:25Welcome, Mabel.
01:02:35Wait.
01:02:38Where's Jonathan?
01:02:39He has moved away.
01:02:43He is, I quote, giving you space.
01:02:48He moved?
01:02:50Where?
01:02:51I'm afraid I don't know.
01:02:56He really left everything behind.
01:02:59He said it would be for the best.
01:03:02He's right.
01:03:18Maybe it is for the best.
01:03:19I found the programmer that you've been looking for.
01:03:31Here's everything on him.
01:03:32The best we could dig up.
01:03:35Hey.
01:03:36You need to learn to take some more breaks.
01:03:38Setting the bar way too high for the rest of us.
01:03:40I'll slow down once we've got more skilled people like this one working for us.
01:03:49And Crystal, don't see you.
01:04:08Facial recognition successful.
01:04:11Welcome, Mabel.
01:04:12Nice work, Jonathan.
01:04:25Mabel.
01:04:26Hi.
01:04:29How did you...
01:04:30Weeks ago, we discovered a mysterious programmer.
01:04:34Their work was outstanding.
01:04:35I just had to know who it was.
01:04:40Sorry.
01:04:42I, uh...
01:04:43Got bored.
01:04:45I wanted something to do.
01:04:46Your coding gave you away.
01:04:48It felt familiar.
01:04:50Like you.
01:04:51The way the numbers and the figures went together, I don't know, it kind of felt romantic.
01:04:58Why did you leave everything behind?
01:05:01Don't you miss it?
01:05:01I wanted to fix my mistakes.
01:05:07To help you.
01:05:10I want you to be happy, Mabel.
01:05:14You left without saying goodbye.
01:05:16I know.
01:05:17I'm sorry.
01:05:19I knew you wouldn't forgive me if I left.
01:05:21I needed to distance myself from you.
01:05:23It was the only way I knew how to forgive you.
01:05:27Have you succeeded?
01:05:28I did.
01:05:31And good.
01:05:38Julie.
01:05:41At Novatec, we offer competitive pay.
01:05:44And flexible schedules with remote opportunities and free meals.
01:05:51Sounds good.
01:05:52There's more.
01:05:55We have benefits, like honeymoon leave, and childcare support, and fun company events.
01:06:04So, Jonathan Whiteford, how would you feel about joining Novatec?
01:06:10As an executive?
01:06:12No, as staff, but I would be thrilled to have you as a senior programmer.
01:06:19Pretty good offer.
01:06:20Also, there are no restrictions about relationships with colleagues.
01:06:30So, if you happen to like someone at work, it's cool.
01:06:37That's good to know.
