00:00:00What are you doing?
00:00:07Like, please. I know women like to do this whole hard-to-get thing,
00:00:12but isn't getting married while you're really here?
00:00:15Excuse me?
00:00:16You can cut the act. The Franklins need a son-in-law who's a politician
00:00:21to help clean up their new money image, or else the Joneses are just going to leave them behind.
00:00:27Multiple strangers.
00:00:29Various hotels, and only in one month?
00:00:34I'm the best candidate to be the next governor, so I marry you.
00:00:38They donate $5 million to help support my campaign, and everybody wins.
00:00:42Everybody wins.
00:00:44You know, I'm so sorry you seem to have it twisted.
00:00:47Honestly, Miss April, I don't think you're my type of woman.
00:00:50But if my family wasn't breathing down my neck, forcing me to get married?
00:00:55And I'm not going to marry you.
00:00:56You spied on me?
00:00:58Fine.
00:00:59Don't beg me to marry into your family.
00:01:02I wouldn't have even bothered to show up.
00:01:04Besides, that is the ugliest sweater I've ever seen.
00:01:10Let's see how you solve your problems yourself.
00:01:13He looks cute.
00:01:26It's you.
00:01:27I've lived for three years and never found you.
00:01:29Looks like we're in the same boat.
00:01:31So, what do you say?
00:01:32Why don't you and I get married?
00:01:34I must be dreaming right now.
00:01:35I mean, it's a win-win.
00:01:36Right?
00:01:37Look, if you're in, meet me.
00:01:38Look, if you're in, meet me.
00:01:39It's you.
00:01:40I've lived for three years and never found you.
00:01:42It's you.
00:01:43I've lived for three years and never found you.
00:01:44Looks like we're in the same boat.
00:01:45So, what do you say?
00:01:46Why don't you and I get married?
00:01:48I must be dreaming right now.
00:01:57I mean, it's a win-win.
00:01:58Right?
00:01:59Look, if you're in, meet me at the courthouse for you to look.
00:02:05Oh!
00:02:06By the way, it means a length.
00:02:11Sir, things went south with Miss Effie.
00:02:14What are you doing?
00:02:17South with Miss Epps. Mrs. Jones is not going to be pleased. Don't worry about my mother. Yes, sir.
00:02:25Look into a woman by the name of Elaine.
00:02:33You are playing hard to death, aren't you? Since we're here for you already, why don't we just
00:02:37settle you up and get married? Let go of you! Sorry I'm late. How do you want me to deal with
00:02:48this is trash? Don't waste your time on him. You're gonna regret this. Oh, excuse me. What? Vincent.
00:03:02My name is Vincent. Okay, Vincent. Let's go.
00:03:07Good to go.
00:03:19Mom! Hi, what's up? How dare you walk out on a perfect man we've chosen for you! Apologize, Mr. Browner,
00:03:26you are kicked out of this family for good. He was far from perfect. I mean, he practically tried to molest...
00:03:32So? Well, since we're married now, I thought that we could live together.
00:03:52Oh, it's cozy and warm in here. I like it. But maybe I should keep my identity under wraps to keep
00:04:00things simple. I thought I would really convince people we're married, you know?
00:04:04Uh-huh. If I'm not mistaken, there's only one bedroom. And geez, newlyweds.
00:04:24I feel like it's probably only natural that we share of that. I mean, I don't know. What do you think?
00:04:37I really... If you want, I... I'm just kidding. This is your place. Obviously, you can have the bed,
00:04:49I'll stay on the couch. Uh, no. Yeah, the bedroom. Really? Thanks.
00:05:05Wow. Good morning. Breakfast is ready. Oh, well, I love pancakes. Okay.
00:05:21Oh, this is even better than my chef's going. You have a chef.
00:05:29No, um, I meant my mom. It's better than what my mom makes.
00:05:35Uh, sorry. Thank you. So good.
00:05:45Where the hell have you been?
00:05:48I thought you told me not to come home yesterday.
00:05:53By the way, I got married.
00:05:55You get nuts!
00:05:58I'm serious. I really don't.
00:06:00Elaine, our rivals with Joneses are getting more and more powerful.
00:06:03We need this marriage alliance to secure our position.
00:06:06I'm sorry. I have to go take care of something for work.
00:06:12That's okay. Go. I'll be fine by myself.
00:06:16I'll be back soon. Just leave the dishes in the sink.
00:06:23I'm sorry. I have to go take care of something for work.
00:06:25Elaine, as requested. She's an assistant to some director.
00:06:28I'll be back soon. Just leave the dishes in the sink.
00:06:34Elaine, as requested. She's an assistant to some director.
00:06:56Are you sure she's the one you want to be with?
00:06:58She's the one I've been looking for the whole long.
00:07:01What?
00:07:03Then why don't you put her up with you?
00:07:04Like, why doesn't she stay in the Jones mansion?
00:07:07Because there's a traitor in the Jones family.
00:07:10I can't get her involved in that mess.
00:07:14So, you really married Vincent? Is he some small-time worker?
00:07:34Listen, Henry. As long as it's not my mother's pick, I don't really care who I marry.
00:07:39My dad only wants what's best for the family.
00:07:43And I just want my mother to understand that my worth is not about getting married.
00:07:50If you'll keep me updated on the Jones family, I'd appreciate it.
00:07:54Please bring by my stuff later. I'll be staying here.
00:07:56Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to get ready for my day.
00:07:59Where are you going, ma'am?
00:08:01Find my new husband.
00:08:02Hi. I'd like to pick out a gift for my wife.
00:08:17Sir, do you have a membership with us?
00:08:21Um, no. I don't think so.
00:08:25First time at a place like this, I assume?
00:08:26This is our cheapest item. And even these are a thousand bucks a pack.
00:08:38Sir, I believe you're in the wrong store.
00:08:41You should try the thrift store a few blocks down.
00:08:44You'll probably find something affordable there.
00:08:46And how do you know what I can afford?
00:08:49I've seen plenty of you big shots with empty pockets.
00:08:53I can sell you a bag with our logo on it. It'd be perfect for your second-hand minds.
00:08:59Your wife won't know the difference.
00:09:02Do you know who I am?
00:09:08Oh, can't afford it?
00:09:09So you're playing the rich guy act on me?
00:09:12Please. I work for the Franklin family.
00:09:15The wealthiest family in town.
00:09:17Your spare change won't do any good in here.
00:09:19Why don't you go ahead and take off?
00:09:21The Franklins.
00:09:22Miss Franklin, this entire store was a gracious gift from Mrs. Franklin.
00:09:27And I'm the manager she assigned for you.
00:09:29The beautiful windows you see are actually something that the store is very well known for.
00:09:35May I introduce the director of design?
00:09:37That's all right. I'm just looking.
00:09:38You can carry on with your usual work.
00:09:40Very well.
00:09:42Vincent.
00:09:53The Franklins.
00:09:54They're nothing in my eyes.
00:09:55Hey, babe.
00:09:57Hey, what are you doing here?
00:10:02Hey, what are you doing here?
00:10:03Finding someone a wedding gift.
00:10:06You?
00:10:06Same. I'm doing the same thing.
00:10:11Did y'all lose your way to the dollar store?
00:10:13Please, don't touch anything in here.
00:10:15You're stinking up the place.
00:10:19You little bitch! I'll kill you!
00:10:22Bitch, do you know who I am?
00:10:23I work for the Franklins.
00:10:25Oh yeah? Call them. Call them right now and tell them to get on over here.
00:10:29You know, that was really impressive, but why don't you leave stuff like that to me next time?
00:10:41You better pray they go easy on you. On both of you.
00:10:44Now go block the door. Don't let anyone out.
00:10:47Ooh, you nervous?
00:10:50You kidding? Two days of marriage and a front row seat to this? Lucky me.
00:10:54Well, since we're stuck here, we might as well look around.
00:11:01Oh, I like this one.
00:11:06Hey, please don't touch if you can't afford it.
00:11:11Keith will try one.
00:11:24You're dead, bitch.
00:11:48These two trashed our store and they insulted the Franklins.
00:11:51Is that so? Well, just toss them to the ocean and let the fish happen.
00:11:59Jack!
00:12:01How lovely it is to see you again and in such short time.
00:12:05Now, tell me, who is it that you were going to fly into the ocean?
00:12:08That's right.
00:12:09What did you call her?
00:12:11Idiot!
00:12:13This is the Franklin family heiress.
00:12:17Miss Franklin! I'm so sorry. Please forgive me.
00:12:21I'm so sorry.
00:12:28I'm missing something.
00:12:36Heard you Franklins were throwing around your weight.
00:12:39Bullying the Joneses.
00:12:40I'm missing something.
00:12:43Hey!
00:12:46It's about to be a full-on game fight here.
00:12:48We should leave.
00:12:50I almost forgot.
00:12:51I can't drive into the Joneses less.
00:12:53Let's go home.
00:13:06The Jones are getting out of hand.
00:13:09Making a scene in broad daylight.
00:13:12It's all over now.
00:13:15Let's go.
00:13:21What?
00:13:22So they not only thrashed our store, but they hurt our people?
00:13:27Fine.
00:13:28Let's send the Jones a little gift.
00:13:39Yep.
00:13:40Director Andrea, our biggest investor just pulled out of the film.
00:13:45What?
00:13:47Um, okay, don't panic, okay? I'm gonna handle this.
00:13:50Mm-hmm.
00:13:58Mom?
00:13:59How could you pull the funding for my film without even telling me?
00:14:02You got here.
00:14:03You're not telling me?
00:14:04Why can't I pull the funding?
00:14:06Uh, thanks.
00:14:24What's wrong?
00:14:25Is the food not good?
00:14:27No, it's delicious.
00:14:29It's just the film I'm working on just lost its biggest investor.
00:14:38So there's a good chance it might never be made.
00:14:43What's the movie called?
00:14:45A Midsummer Woman.
00:14:49Well, food's not gonna eat itself, so have a bite.
00:15:00Anything else for you, sir?
00:15:01Talk to the producers of A Midsummer Woman.
00:15:04Put some money into it, but...
00:15:05Make sure no one knows it's me.
00:15:07I don't want my name involved.
00:15:09You're doing this for Elaine, aren't you?
00:15:14Because that's a, uh, it's a really good move.
00:15:16Anything Andrea directs, it's top of the box office.
00:15:21Mysterious woman, though.
00:15:22No one's ever seen her.
00:15:23No, it's not even images online.
00:15:25Has anything.
00:15:26I, I'm not interested in these tours, but I just want to learn how it works.
00:15:32Right.
00:15:45Hello?
00:15:45Andrea, guess what?
00:15:47We got a new investor for the film.
00:15:49What?
00:15:50Oh, that's fantastic.
00:15:51Thank you so much.
00:15:52I'm really looking forward to it.
00:15:56How was your day?
00:15:59My film got new funding.
00:16:02We're back in production.
00:16:03That's amazing.
00:16:04Congrats.
00:16:07Oh, I have to go pack.
00:16:08Of course.
00:16:16To your movie's success.
00:16:17Oh, my God.
00:16:39Oh, man.
00:16:40Oh, man.
00:16:41I leave for set tomorrow, and we're probably not going to see each other for a while.
00:16:53I think we should make up for our lost wedding night.
00:17:11If my identity wasn't what you think it is, it would probably get you in danger.
00:17:24Would you still stay?
00:17:41Ashes on the ground
00:17:53Color is on the ground
00:18:05Elaine's film is in production?
00:18:07Yes, ma'am.
00:18:08Well, she sure has grown wings, hasn't she?
00:18:12Find out who's funding her.
00:18:21Here's to a mid-summer woman!
00:18:30Alright everybody, thank you, back to work. We have a long day. Thank you, thank you for being here.
00:18:41Okay, cut! That is a wrap today, everybody. Thank you for your hard work. Go home, get some rest. See you bright and early.
00:18:58I have a few questions about my role. Can we talk about it?
00:18:59Yeah, let's go to the lounge.
00:19:03But anyway, I'm here to see Elaine. She's the assistant director. I believe.
00:19:04I'm sorry bud, there's no Elaine here. What? I'm sorry bud, there's no Elaine here. What? I can't be.
00:19:18Bro, you seriously think you can make up a name and sneak into our set? Why don't you guys get out of here before I ruin our shoot, huh?
00:19:32How dare you talk to the boss like that, huh?
00:19:35Oh, your boss? What is this, a little skit? A little buddy action, huh?
00:19:40Yeah. Mile set now.
00:19:42What do you think you're doing? You cannot mess with this man. Now get him in disguise, immediately.
00:19:54He's right this way sir.
00:19:59Hey!
00:20:03I love you.
00:20:06What'd you just say?
00:20:08This is the part I don't really get. I've gone through so much betrayal and anger. What is my character's emotion when saying this line?
00:20:18Well, obviously a lot of pain and sadness, but you can always add your own interpretation as well.
00:20:27There's a kissing scene coming up. You want to help me practice?
00:20:33Kane, what are you doing? Get off of me!
00:20:36I want to do this! Stop it!
00:20:41Enough!
00:20:45Enough!
00:20:50Vincent, what are you doing here?
00:20:52What's going on? You and him, are you?
00:20:55No, he was harassing me.
00:20:59Do you know who I am?
00:21:01Look at the damn who you are.
00:21:04I'll kill you!
00:21:09Don't hit his face!
00:21:17Why are you protecting me?
00:21:21Boss, I've been looking for you everywhere.
00:21:23Did he just call you boss?
00:21:25Give me one good reason that should knock this asshole in the face.
00:21:31He has to be on camera tomorrow as we'll mess up my entire shooting schedule.
00:21:38Why did he just call you boss?
00:21:41Maybe it's time to tell her who I really am.
00:21:44I'll end.
00:21:45Wait, sorry. Do I know you from somewhere?
00:21:49Uh, no.
00:21:51I've never seen you before in my life.
00:21:55Oh my god, you are from the luxury store with the Jones family. How dare you come here?
00:22:00Elaine, relax. I brought him here.
00:22:03Why were you with someone from the Jones family?
00:22:05Elaine, I don't want to hide anything from you.
00:22:07Listen to me. I'm...
00:22:08Is everything okay here, director?
00:22:12Director?
00:22:14At the world famous director Andrea?
00:22:19Director?
00:22:21At the world famous director Andrea?
00:22:23No. No, I...
00:22:26Assistant director.
00:22:28I'm just helping out with some extra chores.
00:22:31Andrea.
00:22:32Can you, uh, just get this...
00:22:35scumbag out of here, please?
00:22:37And just come to you on your shoe.
00:22:38I'll be right there.
00:22:39Just need a moment to speak with my husband.
00:22:42I'll be in the car.
00:22:49Well, I'd like an explanation.
00:22:51Same here.
00:22:52You still don't trust me?
00:22:54Elaine, I think it's time for a career change.
00:22:57How can you even say that?
00:22:59Who are you to tell me what I can and cannot do?
00:23:01I mean, this marriage is just out of convenience.
00:23:04Elaine, don't say that.
00:23:06I'm just worried about you.
00:23:08I'm sorry.
00:23:10I'm sorry, I...
00:23:12I overreacted.
00:23:13It's just been a shitty afternoon.
00:23:16I know. I know you didn't mean it.
00:23:18Today's my fault. I should've been more careful.
00:23:21But...
00:23:24As my husband, I need you to support my passions.
00:23:29Of course.
00:23:31I just need to know one thing.
00:23:33Who is more important to you?
00:23:35Me?
00:23:36Or Kane?
00:23:38You.
00:23:40Always you.
00:23:43Show me.
00:23:45How?
00:23:47Like this.
00:23:48What's your deal?
00:23:49What's your deal?
00:23:57What's your deal about that Jones guy?
00:24:20I don't really need to talk about this one.
00:24:27It's my coworker, that's it.
00:24:34So, you work with the Jones group?
00:24:44Well, can you find another job?
00:24:50I hate them.
00:24:52Why?
00:24:53They're a bunch of jerks.
00:24:55You've dealt with them before?
00:24:58Yes.
00:25:00My mom had a shop just to make ends meet and they just came in and thrashed it.
00:25:08Are you sure this is really them?
00:25:10Like, they're not usually that ruthless.
00:25:22One more word.
00:25:23Defending them.
00:25:25I'll hate you too.
00:25:29No more talk about the Joneses.
00:25:36I think it's time to go back to that.
00:25:42The Joneses.
00:25:43Yeah.
00:25:44I'ts, I need five.
00:25:45I'm like to invite them to the Joneses.
00:25:48Okay.
00:25:49Dominion T.
00:25:50Oh, my God.
00:26:20Why do you smile?
00:26:29I'm happy.
00:26:32The way you protected me today, it's game.
00:26:36It's really attractive.
00:26:38Well, I can't let my wife be offended.
00:26:50I'll go with you.
00:27:00You must be kidding.
00:27:08After what happened yesterday, I'm not leaving you alone again.
00:27:12Miss Franklin, Elaine's latest project is being funded by the Jones family.
00:27:25What did you say?
00:27:29Well, well, Elaine, so that's who you've turned to.
00:27:37This is the soundstage for me doing things.
00:27:39Hey, Carol.
00:27:40Hey, Carol. She looks nice.
00:27:42Hey, Andra.
00:27:45Uh, Elaine.
00:27:47Hey, Elaine.
00:27:48Go ahead. Keep shooting. Just don't mind us.
00:27:58Action!
00:28:05Cut!
00:28:10What did you think?
00:28:11What did you think, director?
00:28:17I thought it was fine.
00:28:20Really?
00:28:23Wow.
00:28:25If you really think it's that...
00:28:27Fine. You should just move on to the next scene.
00:28:31Hey, what's so funny?
00:28:35Nothing. Nothing is.
00:28:37I just...
00:28:38I thought it looked really interesting.
00:28:41Directing.
00:28:42Oh.
00:28:42I'm sorry.
00:28:43There's an emergency back at the office you needed.
00:28:45Oh, you should go.
00:28:46Oh, you should go.
00:28:47Work comes first.
00:28:49Bye-bye.
00:28:50Okay.
00:28:50All right.
00:28:52Bye.
00:28:55Fine.
00:28:57So, are we moving on?
00:29:00Yeah.
00:29:00What the heck was that, people?
00:29:05We need to go again from the top immediately.
00:29:08Take five.
00:29:11Let's see.
00:29:11Are you going to come back?
00:29:14Because that actor who's been bothering your wife is still on set.
00:29:18If I stay, I'll just get in the way of it.
00:29:22Her work?
00:29:23Haven't you noticed?
00:29:25Elaine is the real director.
00:29:26Wait, she's the mysterious, famous Andrea?
00:29:37Why did you play along?
00:29:39Because if she's hiding her identity, she must have her reasons, right?
00:29:43Anyway, let's get back to the topic.
00:29:45I want you to look into anyone in the family who's been acting out recently.
00:29:51And cut.
00:29:52That's it for today.
00:29:53Thank you, everyone.
00:29:54Good night.
00:29:54Look, I'm sorry for yesterday.
00:29:57I just wasn't thinking.
00:29:59Just, please, let's forget it.
00:30:00I'm not going to kick you off my salt.
00:30:02Unless you pull another shot like that again.
00:30:04Thank you so much.
00:30:07Although, if I may, something you should know about your husband.
00:30:10Your husband only married you for your image and your fame.
00:30:13A scumbag like that doesn't deserve you at all.
00:30:15So you think he doesn't deserve me.
00:30:18Then who does?
00:30:19Someone like you?
00:30:20You know I was trying to be kind, but don't bother coming back tomorrow.
00:30:23What?
00:30:23Wait, you're keeping me off the set just because I told the truth about him?
00:30:26What do you want me to do?
00:30:28Post all your pictures on the internet?
00:30:32Get this lunatic off my set.
00:30:34There's nothing without me.
00:30:35Stop talking.
00:30:36You cunt!
00:30:37Sir, um, the Joneses just stole another, uh, major deal from you.
00:30:48Damn it!
00:30:49Vincent is squeezing us out!
00:30:51But, but, but, but, but, I did find some intel on him.
00:30:57Who's this woman he's with?
00:30:59Uh, seems to be his lover, sir.
00:31:02Didn't he just declare that he was engaged with that April woman?
00:31:06And now he's walking around with a mistress.
00:31:08I think that we should send her a gift and let them know that the clients aren't the kind of people to be messed with.
00:31:16Hmm.
00:31:27Vincent, where are you?
00:31:29Turn around.
00:31:30You wrapped your movie.
00:31:51Congrats.
00:31:52These are for you.
00:31:53You're so sweet.
00:31:55Let's go.
00:31:55I booked us a nice little place.
00:32:04Thought we could celebrate.
00:32:06How did you get this car?
00:32:08Oh, I rented it.
00:32:23What the hell do I need you for?
00:32:24I, uh, the Joneses stole a really good deal from us.
00:32:28Sir, I, I, don't worry.
00:32:30I got some new intel that Vincent and his, and his lady lover will be at the Hamilton restaurant tonight.
00:32:35I arranged for a car that may have a little accident.
00:32:39And the, the CCTV nearby can conveniently shut down for a bit.
00:32:44Interesting.
00:32:46Even better if we leave some traces.
00:32:48What do you mean, sir?
00:32:49I want Vincent to think Franklin had something to do with this.
00:32:55Let the family stare each other apart.
00:33:02To a box office hit.
00:33:04Of course.
00:33:05Everything Andrea does is a success.
00:33:08I've got a lot of faith in this director, too.
00:33:10What's this?
00:33:17Wow.
00:33:18Let me put it on for you.
00:33:19I love it.
00:33:28But, take it back tomorrow.
00:33:31Why?
00:33:32You don't like it?
00:33:33We can pick something else out together.
00:33:35No, no.
00:33:36It, it's too much.
00:33:38I mean, I don't want you spending money on stuff like this.
00:33:40We can't afford it.
00:33:42Elaine, you deserve the best this world has to offer.
00:33:50Elaine, do you really not remember me?
00:33:55Hmm?
00:33:56Maybe before our instant wedding?
00:33:59When?
00:34:00Three years ago.
00:34:01No way.
00:34:03That day at the coffee shop was the first time we met.
00:34:06It has to be, right?
00:34:07I think I'd remember if we had met before.
00:34:13Or did we really meet before?
00:34:18Do you remember perhaps saving someone?
00:34:22I remember saving stray cats and dogs.
00:34:26But what are you talking about?
00:34:29Wait, are you saying that I saved you and now you're here to repay me or something?
00:34:34Exactly.
00:34:34Maybe I was one of those cats or dogs you rescued and here to return the favor.
00:34:43Oh, do you want to go stargazing?
00:34:46Of course.
00:34:52Meeting you was the best thing that has ever happened to me.
00:34:54You too.
00:34:55You should get going.
00:35:01Look out!
00:35:06Vincent, are you okay?
00:35:08Don't worry.
00:35:09Let me find you.
00:35:11Vincent, you're bleeding.
00:35:12It's okay.
00:35:13It's just a scrape.
00:35:14I just need some disinfectant.
00:35:16I'll be good.
00:35:16Does it hurt?
00:35:24Nope.
00:35:25I don't feel a thing.
00:35:26This is not my fault.
00:35:28If I hadn't convinced you to go stargazing, none of this would have ever happened.
00:35:32No.
00:35:34It's on me.
00:35:36Ow.
00:35:36Okay, it does hurt a little bit.
00:35:39I'm sorry.
00:35:41I'll be gentle.
00:35:51That's my type of pain, Carrie.
00:35:55As long as I get such a...
00:35:57Well, not quite enough.
00:36:00I got the death section.
00:36:01I got the death section.
00:36:15Oh.
00:36:18It's alright.
00:36:21Sorry.
00:36:24Too much is, um...
00:36:26Too much at once is not good anyway.
00:36:28It's alright.
00:36:30Go ahead.
00:36:31Go get some rest.
00:36:32Don't worry about me.
00:36:33I'll be fine.
00:36:35It's nothing.
00:36:36Alright.
00:36:37Call me if you mean anything.
00:36:49Bond.
00:36:50Look who was behind the attack on Elaine and I.
00:36:58Vincent.
00:37:01Vincent?
00:37:10Mm-hmm.
00:37:11No.
00:37:24Mm-hmm.
00:37:25Henry, hi. I need you to look into the runaway car that went rogue at the Hamilton restaurant. It almost hit me.
00:37:37What? Are you alright? Who dare hurt you?
00:37:41Yeah, I'm fine, but my husband took quite the hit trying to protect me.
00:37:46Rest assured, ma'am. I'll find out who's behind this. By the way. Do you happen to know who funded the movie, Midsummer Woman?
00:37:53Um, no. I mean, I thought it was just like a small production company. Why?
00:37:59I have strong reason to believe it's backed by the Jones family.
00:38:05Wait. Are you serious?
00:38:10Damn it. How am I supposed to explain this to my mom?
00:38:14Open up, Elaine Franklin. It's the wall.
00:38:28Where is he?
00:38:30Uh, who? Vincent?
00:38:32Yeah.
00:38:32Uh, he already left for work.
00:38:34Oh.
00:38:37So, uh, this is where you're staying, huh?
00:38:39I have given you the best of everything.
00:38:43And I've kept your identity as Ms. Franklin a secret to protect you.
00:38:46But what? You're playing, uh, charity with some poor nobody?
00:39:00Elaine?
00:39:00Mom, listen. He's a really nice guy.
00:39:03Oh, God.
00:39:06A nice guy.
00:39:07Nice means nothing, Elaine.
00:39:10And he's not one of us.
00:39:12And, you know, when were you ever going to tell me about the car accident?
00:39:16Tell me that.
00:39:17Oh, my God. Mom, I'm fine. Look at me. Don't worry, okay?
00:39:21No. Divorce him.
00:39:23You're coming home with me.
00:39:24And after everything that happened yesterday, do you really think I'm going to let you wander the world?
00:39:31Oh, God.
00:39:32If you had married Mr. Brown like I told you to, you'd realize nobody would be messing with you.
00:39:40Who I marry, or if I marry at all, is my choice.
00:39:45And what makes you think he didn't marry you for your money?
00:39:48Oh, my God. Vincent doesn't even know my true identity.
00:39:51Oh, that's even better.
00:39:52Oh, God.
00:39:53So, what do you think he's going to do when he finds out you're the Franklin heiress?
00:40:00Oh, oh, and how about Andrea, the famous director?
00:40:04Oh, my God.
00:40:05Elaine, he is a regular guy.
00:40:09Jesus.
00:40:10Oh, God.
00:40:10He could work 24-7 and not even afford one of your handbags.
00:40:15You tell me what he's going to do when he realizes that.
00:40:17Tell me.
00:40:19Oh, Jesus.
00:40:20Fine.
00:40:21Let's talk about your film, your new film.
00:40:25Oh, great.
00:40:26Tell me, why did you accept an investment from the Jones family?
00:40:30Obviously, I didn't know.
00:40:31It was from the Jones family.
00:40:33I thought it was just some no-name, small little production company.
00:40:37It's not like I went out of my way.
00:40:39I have been listening to water burn ever since I got here.
00:40:45Does this place have a plumbing leak for you?
00:40:46Oh, yeah, no, about that.
00:40:48That is probably just a minor, minor little leak.
00:40:51But I'm going to fix it later.
00:40:52You are going to fix it?
00:40:56Of course.
00:40:57Oh, right.
00:40:59Um, you probably just don't want to go in there and say,
00:41:02a really ugly sight, not a pretty sight.
00:41:06Of course.
00:41:07Really?
00:41:20Shh!
00:41:21Don't say a word.
00:41:25What's going on?
00:41:28My mom is here.
00:41:29What?
00:41:30Do I need it?
00:41:31No, no, just stay here, be quiet, and just go hide in there, okay?
00:41:36Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:42:06Oh.
00:42:08Mom, um, well, I took care of it, so I don't want to.
00:42:12Look at you.
00:42:12You are a complete mess, and I don't understand why you're willing to live in a place like this.
00:42:18Clean yourself up and think about what I've told you.
00:42:21Do you hear me?
00:42:22Mom.
00:42:23Um, Vincent, it's, um, all clear.
00:42:33You can come out now.
00:42:36Vincent?
00:42:42Vincent?
00:42:42Vincent?
00:42:59Did your mom come to see you?
00:43:00She came to tell me to divorce you.
00:43:02What?
00:43:04What did you say?
00:43:05I like, I know I'm not perfect.
00:43:08Yesterday I almost got you killed, but I swear, I will never let it happen.
00:43:14Vincent, trust me.
00:43:16I love you.
00:43:17I love you, too.
00:43:18I love you, too.
00:43:48Hi, Henry.
00:44:07Um, I need you to look into Vincent's past for me and see if you can find him a position
00:44:15at Franklin's Corp.
00:44:16So you're serious about staying with him?
00:44:19He jumped in front of a car for me, Henry.
00:44:21It's the least I can do, and Vincent isn't who you think he is.
00:44:25He's a really good guy.
00:44:27I want to keep him away from the Jones family.
00:44:32Just look into it, okay?
00:44:35I was wondering if maybe I could get my own room back now.
00:44:39Hey.
00:45:00Hey, yourself.
00:45:01Shoot.
00:45:06I'm so sorry.
00:45:07I gotta go.
00:45:08That'll work fit you.
00:45:09It's okay.
00:45:10Bye.
00:45:19Hey, Henry.
00:45:21Uh, did you get that information I wanted?
00:45:23Yes, ma'am.
00:45:24Turns out the funding of your movie comes from Vincent's co-worker, man by the name of Bob.
00:45:34Hi, honey.
00:45:35What's your...
00:45:36Another day working for the Joneses?
00:45:41You promised you were going to find another job.
00:45:43I told you.
00:45:46These things take time.
00:45:47You know, Vincent...
00:45:48What exactly do you do?
00:45:54I'm a sales rep.
00:45:56And trust me, working very hard to get promoted.
00:45:59You're just so sweet.
00:46:01I just...
00:46:02But you see, it's almost impossible to get promoted at a family company like the Jones unless...
00:46:09I don't know, dare I say you have a connection?
00:46:12Elaine, I...
00:46:13Please.
00:46:14Oh, by the way, I'm...
00:46:16I actually have quite a few days bringing some treats to congratulate you on all the hard
00:46:24work you've been doing.
00:46:25No.
00:46:26No.
00:46:27No, it's okay.
00:46:28You don't have to do that.
00:46:29I would hate to trouble you.
00:46:31Oh.
00:46:32It's no trouble at all.
00:46:35Elaine?
00:46:36Elaine!
00:46:36Elaine!
00:46:42Elaine is getting suspicious.
00:46:50Don't pick me up tomorrow.
00:46:51I get to work on my own.
00:46:52You can just drop me off here, okay?
00:47:02And please do not tell my moms about any of this.
00:47:08Miss, you have good taste.
00:47:10That limited edition diamond necklace looks stunning.
00:47:13Limited edition?
00:47:13Only a hundred sold worldwide.
00:47:16They were gone in an instant.
00:47:18Just the other day, madame was talking about getting one for you from an auction.
00:47:21Are you sure this isn't fake?
00:47:27Not with this quality, ma'am.
00:47:28This is real.
00:47:30You don't get this kind of craftsmanship from a counterfeit.
00:47:35Miss, didn't you buy this?
00:47:37It was a gift from Vincent.
00:47:41Vincent?
00:47:43I thought he was just a regular office employee.
00:47:47Exactly.
00:47:49How could he afford this?
00:47:50I mean, he must be hiding something.
00:47:52Is that why you wanted to go to Jones Corps?
00:47:54To check up on him?
00:47:56Stay in the car.
00:47:57But miss, this is a Jones family company.
00:48:00It's not a good idea for you to go by yourself.
00:48:03It's okay.
00:48:04I'll be fine.
00:48:05Nobody's going to recognize me.
00:48:06Well, still.
00:48:07It's Franklin.
00:48:20Lane's husband works for the Jones family.
00:48:22Might even have a high position.
00:48:24What?
00:48:25He's connected to Jones's?
00:48:27Get her back here.
00:48:29They need to get a divorce right away.
00:48:35Hi.
00:48:36I'm here to see someone.
00:48:38Do you have an appointment?
00:48:39No.
00:48:40Sorry.
00:48:40I'm looking for Vincent.
00:48:43Vincent?
00:48:44You mean our CEO?
00:48:47CEO?
00:48:47Do you happen to have a regular employee here called Vincent, perhaps?
00:49:00Hold on.
00:49:01Let me check.
00:49:04Got it.
00:49:05There's a guy in sales named Vincent.
00:49:06Great.
00:49:07Great.
00:49:07Could you ask him to meet me at the coffee shop across the street on his lunch break, please?
00:49:14Sure.
00:49:14Can I do you?
00:49:15Could I do you anything?
00:49:31Just a latte.
00:49:32Latte?
00:49:33Thanks.
00:49:33Right away.
00:49:36My pleasure.
00:49:37Enjoy.
00:49:38Are you serious?
00:49:41There's nobody here I know.
00:49:56A brunette with a black leather jacket told me to meet her here.
00:50:03Hi.
00:50:04Sorry to interrupt.
00:50:05Are you Vincent?
00:50:07It's been $120,000 worth of sides here.
00:50:12Elaine?
00:50:13Crap.
00:50:14She said she was going to come over.
00:50:19You go ahead.
00:50:20We'll go over the project later.
00:50:23Vincent!
00:50:24Sorry to keep you waiting.
00:50:29Tiffany, can you...
00:50:32I'll come over here.
00:50:33For you.
00:50:34Wow.
00:50:35I didn't know you were an expert baker.
00:50:39I don't know how you put up with my cooking.
00:50:41No, I love your food.
00:50:43By the way, your receptionist told me that this CEO...
00:50:47also named Vincent.
00:50:48Uh-huh.
00:50:49Yeah.
00:50:50It's a common name.
00:50:59See you tonight.
00:51:05See you tonight, honey.
00:51:19Keep tracking Vincent.
00:51:20I need to know what he's hiding from me.
00:51:29Good morning, you.
00:51:31Gotta go.
00:51:32Running late?
00:51:33Be safe.
00:51:34Henry?
00:51:35Miss.
00:51:36No car came for Vincent today.
00:51:37He took an Uber to work.
00:51:38No wonder he left half an hour early.
00:51:41Just keep an eye on him, okay?
00:51:43Did you come here yesterday?
00:51:44I wasn't sad that he didn't.
00:51:45Just in time.
00:51:46What delicious treat did you bring today?
00:51:48So?
00:51:49What delicious treat did you bring today?
00:51:50Ha ha.
00:51:51So?
00:51:52I don't know why.
00:51:53You took an Uber to work.
00:51:54No wonder he left half an hour early.
00:51:55Just keep an eye on him, okay?
00:51:57Oh, did you come here yesterday?
00:52:01And Vincent said that he didn't.
00:52:03Just in time.
00:52:05What delicious treat did you bring today?
00:52:08Ha ha.
