Short filmTranscript
00:00Ms. Pearson, it's a pleasure.
00:06You know, GQ has been wanting to profile your company for quite some time now.
00:10The pleasure is all mine, I assure you that.
00:13You know, I have to commend you.
00:14I mean, Dyad's assistant matchmaking record is near perfect.
00:19I mean, save for one pesky CEO.
00:22Financial phenom Jet Abrams gave an interview recently expressing his dissatisfaction.
00:31Dyad's algorithm is a bunch of pseudoscience bullshits.
00:34Every assistant they've sent me has been completely incompetent and a total waste of time.
00:40I saw.
00:43Now, are you at all concerned that this kind of publicity will affect your business?
00:49Not at all.
00:51While Mr. Abrams has proven to be a particularly exacting client, I have no doubt we'll be able to imagine.
01:00In fact, I do have a new angle for your profile, Ms. Carter.
01:11I will personally be going undercover as his assistant to find out exactly what it is the biggest asshole in America needs in a right hand.
01:23Jed Abrams will meet his match.
01:28Can you quote me on that?
01:32You told GQ what?
01:34Oh, come on.
01:36Imagine the headline.
01:38Corporate Cupid tames titans.
01:41Matching the unmatchable.
01:42More like delusional CEO, Tank's own company, playing pretend.
01:47You seriously want to attempt some secret spy mission and pretend to be his assistant to gather intel, all while trying to run your own company?
01:56I mean, as your assistant, and more importantly, as your friend, I'm telling you, don't do this.
02:02I know he's an asshole, and I know you want revenge, but...
02:05That's not what this is about.
02:07This is about keeping Dyad's records unimpeachable.
02:11I mean, if Jed Abrams looks like an asshole in the process, that's just cherry on top.
02:16Dyad's algorithm is a bunch of pseudoscience bullshit.
02:20Ooh, honey.
02:21I don't think anything can make that man look bad.
02:24Look, I know you've been married to the job ever since Grey the Goblin, but even a workaholic like you has to appreciate a man like that.
02:34Not my type.
02:36Besides, you know I don't date my clients.
02:38Yeah, but what about your boss?
02:43You little bitch.
02:54Mr. Abrams?
03:00Good morning, I have your coffee.
03:04Must be my new assistant.
03:09Uh, yeah.
03:11Uh, Arya Riley, pleasure to...
03:16Meet you.
03:21You know, when I said I'd give Dyad one last chance, I expected something a little more, uh, impressive.
03:31Supposed to get extra points for nice packaging, huh?
03:34Mr. Riley, I need someone I could trust.
03:37Someone I could count on.
03:40Someone who's not gonna bail and not demand perfection.
03:45Someone who's not gonna fuck up my coffee order.
03:48What's up?
03:49You want someone?
03:51Yes, I am.
03:55Good.
03:56Now clean this shit up.
03:58They'll change.
03:58And, uh, follow those reports on my desk.
04:00Oh.
04:02This is strike one.
04:04Understand?
04:05Good.
04:12God.
04:12Fuckin' prick.
04:21Fuckin' prick.
04:24Okay.
04:27It's just a few weeks.
04:29Gather intel.
04:31Make a match.
04:33Free press and GQ.
04:35Everybody wins.
04:36I could do this.
04:38I could do this.
04:39I could do this.
04:41Oh, my God.
04:44The hell are you doing in here?
04:46I don't want everyone to see me.
04:47I don't want everyone to see me.
04:47You always have extra shirts in your office?
05:04Sometimes things get a bit messy.
05:06I don't want everyone to see me.
05:06I don't want everyone to see me.
05:08Strike two, Miss Riley.
05:32Must have a new record.
05:34Fired by lunch.
05:36So much for another pretty face.
05:48Surprised anyone's lasted this long.
05:51You flirt with all your assistants?
05:58Mr. Abrams, I, I, I'm sorry, I didn't...
06:00Stop.
06:00Every submission that Diet has sent to me...
06:07Let's get shitless.
06:11Not you, though.
06:16Clear your schedule.
06:17You're working the party tonight.
06:19Lots of important potential clients, so...
06:23Do your homework.
06:25And...
06:26No more stains.
06:27All right?
06:29I'll see you later.
06:38So...
06:38He clearly needs someone that can go toe-to-toe with him.
06:41Someone who will not put up with his bullshit.
06:44I mean, this guy has major control and trust issues.
06:47You should have heard him.
06:49He was like...
06:50Someone who's not gonna bail.
06:52Someone he can rely on.
06:55Unlike you.
06:58Excuse me?
07:00You don't think he's gonna be pissed when he finds out you're lying?
07:04That you betrayed him?
07:07Well, I...
07:08By the time he finds out, he'll already be matched.
07:14All's fair and business.
07:15That's not how that saying goes.
07:17This.
07:24This.
07:27And...
07:27This.
07:30Glenn.
07:31I'm trying to get into his business.
07:33Not his pants.
07:35Aria?
07:36He said to himself.
07:37He's not impressed.

12:41How about a drink?
12:45Yeah.
12:45Yeah.

12:49I've tried many times, but it's just not.
13:04You want to sit down?
13:05Yeah.
13:06Let's go.
13:10Oh, I am such a klutz.
13:14Probably did you a favor, though.
13:16Cheap thing like that belongs in the trash.
13:17I'd be careful what you call cheap with a nose like that.
13:20Excuse me?
13:21What the hell is your problem, Lena?
13:25Go.
13:27Go.
13:29Come on.
13:35Here, sit down.
13:39Can I sit?
13:40Jess is right.
13:49Jess is right.
14:05Does that hurt?
14:06No, it's just cold.
14:10It's just cold.
14:14I've been thinking lately, lately, it's you.
14:21You throw your piss, put it on me, the baby's you.
14:29I said, uh, I'll probably get you home.
14:40Yeah.
14:42Here.
14:43You take my car.
14:46Okay?
14:50I'm going to need you at the office early in the morning.
14:53You got to set up for the meeting with Hamelin.
14:54I'm going to need a briefing doc of all the strategic angles.
14:59Can you handle that?
15:01That's a lot to ask of a cripple.
15:05Well, I have all the faith in the world.
15:11I'll see you in the morning, yeah?
15:15Okay.
15:16Get home safe.
15:17Thanks.
15:42Double shot, dry, almond milk, and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
15:47In the cup, this time.
15:50Hey, um, I wanted to tell you about what happened between us last night.
15:58That can't happen again.
16:01I mean, I can't.
16:04I crossed the line when I kissed you, and I'm your boss.
16:08No, no.
16:09I know it didn't mean anything.
16:11Oh.
16:13It's my fault.
16:15When I saw my ex, it just kind of rattled me.
16:19Right, yeah.
16:20I crossed the line when I put you in that position, so.
16:25Okay.
16:26I'm sorry.
16:26Um, I think, uh, moving forward, we should just, uh, maintain some professional boundaries.
16:39I didn't say that it didn't mean anything.
16:46Sorry.
16:54I don't mean to interrupt any business matters.
17:00Absolutely not.
17:01Cheer your hand, man.
17:03Ready to finalize this deal?
17:05Only if you want to be a lot richer than you already are.
17:07Absolutely.
17:08Come on in.
17:08Have a seat.
17:14You look familiar to me.
17:16Do I know you from somewhere?
17:18Uh, I don't think so.
17:20Unless you saw my tumble at the party last night.
17:24No, that's not it.
17:26Ah, I just got it.
17:29You look exactly like this CEO.
17:34Oh.
17:34Hmm, a knockout if I've ever seen one.
17:40What did her company do?
17:42It was something with corporate matchmaking.
17:46Uh, diet?
17:48Right.
17:50That's where Arya came from.
17:52Hmm.
17:53What a funny coincidence.
17:55I haven't had the pleasure of meeting our CEO.
17:59Uncanny.
18:00Hmm.
18:00Well, gentlemen, should we get down to business and hammer out some deal points?
18:06Absolutely.
18:07Okay.
18:08Coffee, Mr. Hanlon?
18:09Hmm.
18:10Sweet and milky.
18:14Darling.
18:15Darling.
18:21Hmm.
18:23Thought you were fed up with Dyad.
18:26Yeah.
18:27Giving him one last chance.
18:28You sly dog.
18:33I guess you were just holding out for the goods, huh?
18:36What do you say?
18:37We share the wealth?
18:39We could make her one of the deal points.
18:42She's mine.
18:44My assistant.
18:46Leave her alone.
18:48Hmm.
18:48Hmm.
18:54Thank you, sweetheart.
18:55Hmm.
18:56The fuck was that?
19:01Get out.
19:03Excuse me?
19:04You heard me.
19:06I fucking warned you.
19:07Now get out.
19:09You're going to tank this deal and lose millions?
19:14For her?
19:15Good assistant's worth their weight in gold.
19:17We're through here.
19:18Hmm.
19:18Hmm.
19:18Hmm.
19:19Hmm.
19:19Hmm.
19:19Hmm.
19:20Hmm.
19:20Hmm.
19:21Hmm.
19:21Hmm.
19:21Hmm.
19:21Hmm.
19:22Hmm.
19:22Hmm.
19:22Hmm.
19:23Hmm.
19:23Hmm.
19:23Hmm.
19:24Hmm.
19:24Hmm.
19:24Hmm.
19:25Hmm.
19:25Hmm.
19:25You really didn't have to do that.
19:32I've dealt with creeps way worse than that guy.
19:36Yeah.
19:36I know.
19:37I met Jake's boyfriend, remember?
19:39Hmm.
19:40Should have had to deal with guys like that, though.
19:42Especially with me around.
19:44Hmm.
19:47So, I'm a good assistant, huh?
19:50Not some pseudoscience bullshit?
19:52So, look, I admit I was a bit harsh in that interview.
19:56A bit?
19:56And I can be difficult to work with at times.
20:00Mm-hmm.
20:01But I've learned from experience.
20:05People are generally disappointing.
20:09They leave when the going gets tough.
20:13Just weeding those people out early.
20:15I don't want to waste my time.
20:16I don't want to waste my time.
20:19But you, miss, are most definitely not a waste of my time.
20:26I guess I'm in my match.
20:29Mm-hmm.
20:29Um, well, do you need anything else from me?
20:39Besides losing you a million dollars?
20:44No.
20:45No.
20:48Okay.
20:50Okay.
20:51Get back to work.
21:00Yeah.
21:01Yeah.
21:01Okay.
21:02Okay.
21:02Yeah.
21:12Fuck me.
21:17Oh, my God.
21:18Fuck me.
21:22That doesn't sound like appropriate office talk.
21:26Nothing screams classy like dropping the F-bomb.
21:30Oh, like fucking your fiancé's best friend?
21:34I didn't see you on the schedule today.
21:37Don't you know you have to go through me to get to him?
21:41He didn't tell you.
21:45Alistair Holdings is investing in my makeup company.
21:47Now, be a dear, and fetch me a latte while the adults talk business.
21:52What do you want, Lena?
22:15I just came by to discuss our little business venture.
22:20There's no hour or anything.
22:23We've been broken up for months.
22:25Well, like it or not, we have a contract, remember?
22:30Until you break it, remember?
22:31Baby, baby, what has got you so stressed, huh?
22:45Maybe I can help you relax.
22:47Excuse me.
22:56Uh, no, no, no.
22:58Stay.
23:01If you'd like to make an appointment, make it with Aria.
23:03Just like everyone else.
23:05I'm busy here, Lena.
23:06Of course.
23:09Reserve the jet tomorrow.
23:10Mr. Abrams and I will be flying into New York.
23:12Excuse me, I have to work, Lena.
23:14This is work.
23:17I want to open an office in New York,
23:19and you want to do your due diligence, don't you?
23:23Make sure there's a couple bottles of Dom stocked.
23:27I want to celebrate our merger.
23:28Merger, huh?
23:49Jealous?
23:51No.
23:52I'm not...
23:54No.
23:56Don't worry about Lena.
23:57Forget her.
23:59I do need you to do something for me, though.
24:02Mm-hmm.
24:12The contractors are coming for the kitchen remodel on Friday?
24:15Mm-hmm.
24:16I need you to go let them in.
24:17You could go over there after I leave.
24:20Maybe stay the night, if you want.
24:22And that's not crossing a professional boundary?
24:28Sleeping in your bed?
24:29I do have plenty of guest rooms, Miss Riley.
24:32But if you wanted to...
24:34No!
24:35I don't.
24:36I wasn't.
24:36Um...
24:37Yeah, that would be fine.
24:40Mm-hmm.
24:41Thank you, Mr. Abrams.
24:43So, let's hear it.
25:00What's it like working for the biggest asshole in America?
25:03Uh...
25:04You know, he's, um...
25:09He's not that bad.
25:15Miss Pearson, not that bad is not made for a great article.
25:19Not that bad means it's your company's fault, not his.
25:26And I'm sure that's not the angle you're looking for.
25:29Right?
25:29Of course not.
25:34You know Dyad is everything to me.
25:37Okay?
25:38I put my blood, sweat, and tears into this.
25:41I know.
25:42I've done my research.
25:45Which is why I'm surprised you're not taking the chance to defend it.
25:50I would give anything for this company.
25:53Well, then.
25:56If I were you,
25:56I'd dig up some dirt on that man that's been slandering you in the press.
26:17Okay, damn.
26:19Major CEO goals.
26:23Hello?
26:24Hey, boss.
26:25I've got a couple reports you need to sign.
26:27Should I bring them by Tall, Dark, and Scary's office?
26:32Actually, I'm at his house right now.
26:35Beverly Hills.
26:36I'll send you the address.
26:46Oh, my God.
26:48It's like I stepped into 50 shades of gray.
26:51Ooh, is there a pleasure room?
26:55Don't touch anything.
26:58This man is a total control freak.
27:01Anything is out of place.
27:03He'll...
27:04Glenn!
27:06It's for you.
27:10And me.
27:11You deserve a break.
27:14And besides, he's a freaking billionaire.
27:17Is he really going to miss this $2,000 bottle of champagne?
27:21My God.
27:21Holy shit.
27:25Wow.
27:26You're popular.
27:28It's gray.
27:30He's been harassing me ever since I told him that Jet was my boyfriend.
27:33You what?
27:34It was nothing.
27:35I ran into him at this party, and he wouldn't stop bothering me.
27:39So, Jet played along.
27:43He actually really saved my ass.
27:47And he kissed me.
27:49What?
27:51Yeah.
27:51Okay.
27:53Well, sounds like we have a lot of ground to cover.
27:58How about we do it out by that gorgeous pool?
28:00I brought bathing suits.
28:01How did you know that he...
28:03Duh.
28:04All billionaires have pools.
28:06Now, come on.
28:08It's not like he's going to come home anytime soon.
28:15And then I was thinking drinks at this bar that my friend just opened.
28:18It's super chic and, like, impossible to get into.
28:22And then...
28:24I was thinking tomorrow we'd skip out to the Hamptons.
28:28Daddy's in Shanghai, so we'd have the whole place to ourselves.
28:31Lena, I told you, this is strictly a business trip.
28:38None about that.
28:46There is no office, is there?
28:48I just wanted us to get away like we used to.
28:52Without your obnoxious assistant poking around.
28:57Baby.
29:00You know this isn't over between us.
29:02I can't do this with you.
29:07I...
29:07I'm going home.
29:19Hey, but, like, was there tongue?
29:22No.
29:25Shut up.
29:26Bitch, I knew it.
29:29I knew you wanted to jump his bones.
29:32Okay.
29:32First of all, don't call your boss a bitch.
29:36Second of all, who says I want to jump his bones?
29:42Okay, fine.
29:43Fine.
29:45He's a total package.
29:46I mean, he's hot.
29:48He's rich.
29:49He's smart.
29:51Sounds like someone else I know.
29:53Maybe slightly less rich.
29:56Okay, but still, you two are like a match made in heaven.
29:59Yeah, right.
30:01I mean, and what happens when he finds out I've been lying to him this whole time?
30:05And besides, he's probably not even into me.
30:08He's in New York right now.
30:10With his ex-fiancé.
30:12I mean, what am I supposed to do with that?
30:13Arya?
30:14What are you, um...
30:21Who is this?
30:24Oh, uh, Jew, look at the time.
30:26I have to go feed my fish.
30:29Fish?
30:31My fish and my cat.
30:33Yeah, you should probably do that.
30:38I'm sorry, I didn't...
30:40Just have a half-naked man in my fucking house?
30:44I'm not going to ask you again.
30:45Who is that?
30:49Wait.
30:51Are you...
30:53Jealous?
30:55Of Glenn?
30:59But this is funny to you?
31:01Oh.
31:02No.
31:03No, I, um...
31:04He's my...
31:05Friend.
31:08Mm-hmm.
31:09And trust me, he's way more interested in you than he is me.
31:12Do you like this?
31:22Like, toying with me?
31:24Making me crazy?
31:28Running around my house?
31:31This little bikini?
31:32Okay.
31:32What do you care?
31:39Where's Lena?
31:41Think I give a shit about Lena?
31:44Think that I don't care?
31:47You don't think I'm going crazy seeing you every single day?
31:52Maintaining these professional boundaries?
31:53Ever since we kissed.
32:02I can't stop thinking about that night.
32:07These lips.
32:10You're my boss.
32:12You're my assistant.
32:14So assist me, Arya.
32:17Put me out of my misery.
32:18You're so hot.
32:47I'm sorry.
32:49Oh.
32:51I mean, you're burning up.
32:52Oh.
32:53Let's get you inside.
32:55Okay.
32:55Okay.
32:55Now, I've been dreaming of this.
33:17Yeah?
33:18Yeah.
33:19I dig up some dirt on that man that's been slandering you in the house.
33:39Jed, I need to tell you something.
33:47No.
33:48Tell me later.
33:48Okay.
33:58Sure.
33:59Okay.
34:01Right.
34:02Okay.
34:02Hungry?
34:26Wow.
34:28This place looks like a five-star hotel.
34:30Well, I didn't know I had all the amenities, too.
34:32Mm-hmm.
34:33Mm.
34:34This looks delicious.
34:37Yeah, I'd say so.
34:42This looks good on you.
34:43Yeah?
34:44Yeah.
34:45But I also think that it'd look better off of you.
34:57Kitchen contractors.
34:58Mm-hmm.
34:59I'll take care of it, boss.
35:01I did it.
35:10Gray!
35:11What the fuck are you doing here?
35:13Did you follow me?
35:15You still weren't answering me.
35:17I needed to talk to you.
35:19You weren't at Dyad.
35:20You weren't at your apartment.
35:21So I thought I'd try your boyfriend's office.
35:24Or should I say your boss's?
35:28Now, you can imagine my surprise when the receptionist corrected me.
35:32Now, I knew you didn't give a shit about this guy.
35:35Like I said, it's all about work for you.
35:38Well, question is, how's he gonna feel when he finds out about your double life?
35:46What do you want?
35:47Now you're asking the right questions.
35:52Ten thousand dollars.
35:55What?
35:55You heard me.
35:56Get me the money, or else this fucking guy finds out exactly who you really are.
36:01Huh?
36:02Blackmail, Gray.
36:03Really?
36:04That's fucking desperate.
36:05Even for you.
36:06What, are you gambling again?
36:07I'm not bailing you out this time.
36:10You have 24 hours.
36:20Fuck.
36:26Everything good?
36:28Yeah.
36:30Contractor stuff.
36:32Big promises and bigger delays.
36:35Yeah.
36:35I should, uh, I should go get ready for work.
36:41Wait, wait, wait.
36:42I'm sure that the boss doesn't understand.
36:44Wait.
36:45No!
36:48No, okay, wait, hold on.
36:49Wow, that's fine.
36:53We can't do this.
36:55Aria, we already have.
36:58I don't date my client.
37:02My bosses.
37:02Well, I don't sleep with my assistants, but, um, here we are.
37:10Look, truthfully, I haven't felt this way, like, maybe ever.
37:21Tell me I'm not the only one.
37:22You're not.
37:28No.
37:33So, are you going to fire me now?
37:36What?
37:36No.
37:38The best assistant I ever had.
37:40I don't know what I'd do without you.
37:41But, maybe, we can have it both ways.
37:49You know?
37:49Professional in the office.
37:52Unprofessional out.
37:55Please.
37:56I really don't want to lose you.
38:02What do you say?
38:02All right.
38:28I have your money.
38:29Just tell me where to send it.
38:30Aria, I'm so sorry, but...
38:34While you were taking your sweet-ass time, I found a better deal.
38:38A better deal?
38:40What the fuck?
38:41You told me I had 24 hours.
38:43Oh.
38:44You'll see soon enough.
38:45Amazing.
38:52Jack.
38:54All right.
38:57Apparently, the Philharmonic wants to thank me for my donations at a private event tonight.
39:02Well, private plus the press.
39:05You know.
39:07Well, it'll be fun.
39:09Plus, I can't go anywhere without my assistant, can I?
39:12Uh, Jack, I...
39:15I'll start to eat.
39:16Where's that little gold dress?
39:31You just never do what you're told, do you?
39:35I love the red, though.
39:36Hey.
39:41Why are you so nervous?
39:46Jet, I...
39:47I need to tell you something.
39:50Ooh, what could that be?
39:52Lena?
39:54What are you doing here?
39:55You didn't think that I'd miss your big night, did you?
39:58No, get me a Chardonnay.
40:00Will you?
40:01Okay.
40:03Chardonnay?
40:05Oh, um, Gray and I have a little surprise planned for you tonight.
40:09Ladies and gentlemen, a brief moment, please.
40:21This evening, as well as this plaque, are just a couple tokens of gratitude for one of our most generous donors.
40:31Jet Abrams.
40:32But, of course, no CEO would be anywhere without their loyal assistant.
40:41A round of applause from Ms. Aria Riley, if you will.
40:46Then again, Aria's not just an assistant.
40:51Great.
40:51And her name's not just Aria Riley.
40:55Please don't do that.
40:56Aria, what's going on?
40:57She's also Aria Riley Pearson, the CEO of Dyad.
41:07Well, looks like they're talking that through now.
41:11You've been lying to me this entire time?
41:14Jet, I was doing this for you, okay?
41:17If you just let me explain.
41:18I just wanted to find you the perfect assistant.
41:22Okay, that's it.
41:23I thought if I went undercover, then I could get you exactly what you need, and then...
41:27And then you were going to leave me?
41:31I trusted you, Aria.
41:33No.
41:34Oh, I never wanted to hurt you.
41:36Ugh, she's lying.
41:42Ever since I found out who you really are, I've been asking around.
41:45See, I have friends at GQ, too.
41:49And a little birdie told me that you pitched an article boasting you could find an assistant for...
41:55What did she call him?
41:56What did you call him?
41:58What was it?
41:59Oh, I remember.
42:00The biggest asshole in America.
42:02She was never here for you.
42:08She was here for herself.
42:10For her company.
42:12It was all...
42:14Just a little PR stunt.
42:24Jet, please...
42:25Don't.
42:25You're fired.
42:31So, in light of recent events, Jet Abrams reached out to the magazine
43:01side of the story.
43:04Dyad regularly engages in corporate espionage.
43:08And their best practices are lies and deception.
43:12And their CEO and founder, Aria Pearson, is a major liability.
43:18Would you care to respond before we go to print?
43:23I, uh...
43:24She has no comment.
43:28Thank you, Helen, but that's all the time Ms. Pearson has today.
43:31No.
43:33Wait.
43:35Aria?
43:36Public allegations of fraud are for lawyers to handle, not you.
43:41You could hurt the company if...
43:42Yes.
43:42Yes.
43:42I lied to Mr. Abrams.
43:52Stepping in was not about going beyond for the client.
43:57It was about promoting Dyad.
44:01It was selfish and wrong.
44:04Any relationship, professional or personal, is based off honesty and trust.
44:17And I betrayed Jet, uh...
44:19Mr. Abrams.
44:25I take full responsibility for my actions.
44:27Yes.
44:28Can I quote you on that?
44:56Sabotage Jet?
44:56What the fuck is your problem?
44:58I take it, you talk to Helen.
44:59Look, I know you're upset with me, but to slander my name in the press.
45:04I'm just being honest, unlike you.
45:07Was it even real?
45:08Was fucking me just part of the plan?
45:10God, what the fuck is wrong with you?
45:12I did what I thought I had to do, okay?
45:14Yeah, you had to lie to me.
45:15You had to manipulate me.
45:17You cheated to get ahead in your note.
45:18Seriously?
45:20You inherited your company from your dad.
45:22Who inherited it from his dad.
45:24Dad, you have no fucking idea what it's like to build something from scratch.
45:28To put your whole soul into something.
45:31Dyad is everything to me.
45:36Was everything to me.
45:37Look, I know you're upset with me for lying.
45:42But you have no fucking right to destroy everything I worked so hard for.
45:47You know what?
45:51Lena was right.
45:53We're from completely different worlds.
45:55This never would have worked.
46:07Aria.
46:09Dyad doesn't need you to step down as CEO.
46:11That's just giving up.
46:14I'm not giving up.
46:16I'm letting go.
46:20Dyad needs a new face to get over this controversy.
46:22I still believe in everything we did.
46:31I just don't know if I believe in myself anymore.
46:35I'm sure it'll be in good hands with whoever the board chooses.
46:38I'm sure it'll be in good hands with whoever the board chooses.
46:52So then the more I thought about it, the more I realized we actually do need a New York office.
47:07I'm thinking Soho, maybe Hudson Yards, anything but Midtown.
47:15Ew.
47:18Chet?
47:21You need to move on.
47:23Forget her.
47:23After what you said to GQ, that bitch is finished.
47:26Do not call her that.
47:28I just, I keep thinking about the last things that she said to me.
47:38She said, I've never built anything from scratch.
47:45She's right.
47:47Okay, but does that justify her lying to you?
47:50For weeks?
47:51When you are as privileged as we are, you cannot let your guard down.
48:00You have to stick with the people you know.
48:04And I know you.
48:09And you know me.
48:16You're right.
48:18I do.
48:21I know you lied to me.
48:24I know you betrayed me.
48:26And I know that when you found out about Aria, you teamed up with her ex to humiliate her instead of coming to be-
48:31I didn't.
48:34I was trying to protect you.
48:37Because I love you, Jet.
48:38You don't love me.
48:41And I don't love you.
48:46I don't think I ever did.
48:48Ever since being with Aria.
48:51The way she made me feel.
49:00You need to leave.
49:07Are you kidding me?
49:10You're going to choose her.
49:12Over me.
49:13Go, Lina.
49:17Go, Lina.
49:17I don't understand why you couldn't bring these documents to my apartment.
49:44Because there are no documents.
49:50I lied.
49:52I needed to get you back in the office.
49:57We've had calls all morning from firms wanting to make capital investments.
50:01Up to nine figures.
50:03What?
50:05How?
50:07Jet recanted his statement.
50:08And saying your praises.
50:10He said that Dyad had an unimpeachable business model and is the best investment of the year.
50:16He said his judgment was clouded because of his feelings for you.
50:21And you had to tell me this at the office.
50:29Why?
50:31He's here.
50:33Waiting for you.
50:34Oh, sorry.
50:52I just wanted to know what it felt like to be the most sought after seeing you have in the city.
50:56So, I need an assistant.
51:16Aria, I...
51:21Jack, I...
51:23Me first.
51:25Okay.
51:27I thought about what you said.
51:30And I should not have lied.
51:33And for everything that I lied about, I was always honest about us.
51:39I mean, I had...
51:44I have very real feelings.
51:51I never thought anything could be more important to me than work.
51:56And then I met you.
52:00And I know what you did with GQ.
52:03And if you were just trying to undo the damage, I get it.
52:08But I was hoping that maybe...
52:13All right.
52:15Why do you think I'm here?
52:18Everything I said was true.
52:20And I was such an idiot.
52:22And I'm sorry that I got so angry that...
52:24No, I'm sorry.
52:26But I shouldn't have lied.
52:29I just...
52:30The thought of losing you...
52:34I got...
52:37I got scared.
52:42I'm not going anywhere.
52:45No, you're not.
52:47I trust you.
53:00In the office?
53:05So unprofessional.
53:07Good thing we don't work together anymore.
53:09You fired me, remember?
53:15You're such a control freak.
53:18Guess that makes us the perfect match.
