00:02Celine, we are late to our company's 50 million dollar open house.
00:05Is your makeup really more important?
00:07I'm just trying to look good for you, sweetheart.
00:09Spare me.
00:11Our marriage contract ends this month.
00:14You can stop pretending.
00:23I can call a tow truck.
00:30Okay, see that little grease bit over there?
00:33You're gonna walk over there in your expensive heels and figure it out.
00:40You want my signature on the divorce agreement, right?
00:53Hi.
00:54How fast can you fix my car?
00:59We don't exactly keep those parts laying around.
01:04Maybe my nephew can help us.
01:06Hey, Knox!
01:26Hey, Knox.
01:29Hey!
01:34Hey!
01:36Hey!
01:37Hey!
01:38Hey!
01:39Hey!
01:40Hey!
01:41What seems to be the problem of Corey.
01:47She's sitting right out there, and it broke down Mercedes.
01:52Look, I know you've probably never seen a car that nice
01:54It might be worth even more than this shop
02:00Well, she lacks a lot of attention
02:04Are you talking about me?
02:06Or the car?
02:08The engine
02:10So you know how to fix it
02:13Well, that depends
02:17On what?
02:19If you ask us nicely
02:25All right
02:29Please, can you help?
02:34Somebody made you walk all the way down here in them heels
02:50What, you had me waiting so long for some shop boy?
02:54You waited this long just to throw some shade?
02:59Pop the hood
03:00Wait, the hood?
03:04Toss me the damn keys
03:27She's worth more than your bloodline
03:30So how long is this going to take?
03:32Just a couple minutes
03:34More if you keep talking
03:37So you got a name?
03:39Knox
03:40Sure you're not trying to profit off the name of the failed Knoxwood Empire?
03:55Start it
04:13Oh my gosh, thank you
04:14How much do we owe you?
04:18Nothing
04:19Just the chance to work on one of these is enough
04:23Jackson
04:27Oh, um
04:35Selene
04:39And I'm still late

05:14To the woman who made this all so effortless
05:22Honey, you shouldn't have
05:26You have motor oil on your shoes
05:32Is that why you took so long in the shop?
05:34On your knees

08:51You ever think about getting air conditioning in here?
08:58You ever think about wearing flats?
09:03Work boots don't sell real estate.
09:06You know, I think it's more than just the shoes making the sale.
09:12We're working a property down the road.
09:14I thought I'd check on the car.
09:20Almost finished.
09:22Go ahead and hang out wherever you like.
09:52When I said hang wherever you like, the back office wasn't included.
10:16I'm sorry, I didn't know.
10:49Go ahead, I didn't know.
11:07Look what you did.
11:18Car should be ready in five.
11:38Is he always that quiet?
11:43Only when he likes someone.
11:46How long has he worked here for?
11:49Long enough to forget who he once was.
11:52Who was he?
11:54Knoxwood.
11:56Shit, Jake.
11:58Come on.
12:00It hurts, man.
12:01Oh, come on.
12:02Let's go.
12:03I'll drive you.
12:06Shop's closed.
12:09Sweet little Elvis almost fainted.
12:13Me too.
12:20Mrs. Beaumont, always nice to see you.
12:24Long morning.
12:26Yeah, just catching up on a few details.
12:29I hate to point it out, but it looks like the catching up got a little bit messy.
12:37She's always been a little, uh, hands-on.
12:40Mm-hmm.
12:41Isn't that right, sweetheart?
12:42We like to be thorough.
12:45Shall we?
12:46Mm-hmm.
12:53You show up late, covered in filth, make me look small in front of her?
12:59Victor, I was working.
13:00Clearly not hard enough to get my signature on the divorce agreement.
13:03I already earned my freedom from you, Victor, and every cent of what you owe me.
13:07You know what?
13:08You'll work as my assistant.
13:10That's an apology to me.
13:13Get my dry cleaning, finish the contracts.
13:17That's if you still want my signature.
13:20Hm.
13:27Hmm.
13:38Hmm.
13:40Hmm.
13:40Hmm.
13:41Hmm.
13:42Hmm.
13:44Hmm.
13:45Hmm.
13:45Well, she's still in one piece.
13:47And your friend from today.
13:49Hmm.
13:49Stubborn as hell. He'll survive.
13:56You doing okay?
13:59Just had a long day.
14:01Seems you've been having quite a few of those in a row.
14:06Do you always carry it this well?
14:08You get used to it.
14:23Well, you all try not to break this one, all right?
14:28No promises.
14:30Well, then I guess I'll be seeing you again.
14:50What are you doing?
14:52Laying out like some trophy and not doing the work I gave you?
14:56I finished it three hours ago. It's on your desk.
14:59Well, then get my dry cleaning for tonight.
15:02I've got a date with a Winston heiress.
15:04That wasn't on your calendar?
15:06Well, that's not business. It's pleasure.
15:09Their family owns half the city and it would do well for the Beaumont name if I marry her next.
15:16You're already courting your next wife.
15:19Why not just end our contract if that's the case?
15:21Because legally, you're still mine.
15:25I was hoping you would see me, Victor.
15:27Not just as your name, not just for our deal.
15:33That must be our little shop boy, ready to tune up the Mercedes for tonight's impression.
15:46Ha, ha, ha! There he is!
15:55Alright, and you will bring it back here tonight, yeah?
15:58You got plans with it?
16:01Dinner with a beautiful woman.
16:04Taking the missus out.
16:07Please, a real woman. One worthy of my company.
16:12You would disrespect a good woman like that.
16:15What'd you say?
16:23I said, you need to treat Selene with more respect.
16:31Women like that aren't loved. They're leased.
16:37Focus on the car.
16:39Not my wife.
16:52Goddammit!
16:54The Winstons are bringing another suitor to dinner after everything I laid out for them.
16:58I guess she found out who she was being sold off to.
17:03What? You're still clinging onto your payout from her marriage contract?
17:06I earned it, Victor. Every cent.
17:09I gave up my life to buy time for my father. You knew that when you offered me this arrangement.
17:14You will get your shares when I say that's what we agreed on.
17:18I signed up to save my father's life.
17:21And because I thought maybe I could build something real in the process.
17:28And now he's dead.
17:29And you will never find love.
17:36Where the hell is Knox with my car?
17:40Go get it.
17:42If it's not out in my driveway in ten minutes, you'll never see that payout that you earned.
18:15I didn't think I'd be back here again.
18:21I didn't think you'd come here alone.
18:27I figured you could use a break from all the noise.
18:45Do you work on all your clients' cars?
18:48Shirtless?
18:52Maybe just the ones showing up here in heels and lipstick.
19:02You're not here for the car.
19:08What if I am?
19:12I'd be disappointed.
19:37I'd be disappointed.
19:51You have to say yes.
19:55You're doing what I'm doing.
19:57I'm doing research to keep it.
19:58If you're not into a car, you don't want to run away.
19:58I know that I'm trying to get into my car.
19:59You're not in a car, you're on a car, you're off.
20:01It's going to be great for me.
20:01What if I'm doing, isn't it?
20:03You're guaranteed for me to keep it on my car.
20:04Can you tell me?
20:06There's a car on your car.
20:49I don't know what you see in me.
20:54Someone real?
20:58But you barely know me.
21:00Why would you want someone weak like me?
21:03Does anybody know you?
21:05I thought he used to.
21:09But our marriage, it was never even real.
21:14It was just another business deal.
21:24My father couldn't run our family business after he got sick.
21:31And we didn't have enough money for his treatments anymore.
21:37So, I entered a marriage contract.
21:43Giving away my name, my father's business, and my freedom.
21:55You gave up everything for someone you love.
22:03That ain't weakness, Selene.
22:08That's strength, most people don't know about.
22:30Let him wait.
22:34His wife's busy.
23:00You really cost me.
23:05They couldn't rush the service for us.
23:08The Winston girl chose another suitor.
23:11They drove off together in his Aventador.
23:14I don't even have an Aventador.
23:17I'm sorry.
23:19You just lost half your payout.
23:21I gave up more than you could ever pay me.
23:28Let's just have to earn it back.
23:40Selene, I have a meeting for the tech merger in two minutes.
23:43Don't bother me unless someone is dead.
23:54You again.
24:03I thought you could use something cold.
24:18You know, I could get used to this kind of service.
24:27So, how do you know an engine is happy?
24:32Happy?
24:33Yeah, like running right.
24:36Or you don't even have to look.
24:38You just know.
24:42Well, it's got a certain rhythm to it.
24:47You know, the way it, it breathes.
24:51You just feel it.
25:02You ever felt anything like that?
25:12Go upstairs.
25:17Why?
25:21Because that's where I'm going to show you.
25:53Because that's where I'm going to show you.
26:04Selene, if you're nervous, I mean, we don't have to.
26:11No, I don't want you to stop.
26:33Does he ever touch you like this?
26:46Lie back.
26:48No, no.
26:53No, no, no.
27:09I don't want you to stop.
27:11No, no.
27:13Oh.
27:13Oh, my God.
27:51Yes, Jeffrey, I know it's all part of our agreement.
28:40Yes, Jeffrey, I know it's all part of our agreement.
28:47Yes, Jeffrey, I know it's all part of our agreement.
28:54Bitch, shut the fuck up.
28:56What?
28:57Sorry, Jeffrey, it's nothing.
28:59I'll call you back.
29:09Look into Jackson Knox.
29:11I don't think I know his full story.
29:20Oops, missed a spot.
29:24Here?
29:51I like having you around the shop.
29:54So you're hiring.
29:57I mean, you look like the boss to me.
30:00Maybe I'll start giving out orders.
30:03I'm sorry.
30:03I'm sorry.
30:23I'm sorry.
30:53You know how good I've been to her?
30:56How could she do this to me?
30:58I don't know, sir.
31:01If he truly is a lost heir of the Knoxwood Empire, we're gonna have to get ahead of this.
31:06Wait, wait. One last thing.
31:09Frame these.
31:19Good morning, darling.
31:20You're up early.
31:22Hey, you know what I was thinking? You know the North Valley redevelopment, right?
31:27Well, the land under Knox Auto. I'm thinking of adding that to the acquisition list.
31:32I'll make sure that's noted.
31:35Hey, let's have dinner tonight. Just us. Let me cook for you. That's the least I can do for such
31:42a good wife.
31:45Mm-hmm.
31:59So your husband wants to buy this dump?
32:03He thinks it's charming. That usually means demolition is next.
32:09He sure's got a nasty habit of trying to own things he shouldn't.
32:12I was one of them. Just another piece of the Beaumont collection.
32:20Beaumont?
32:21It's not a name I'm trying to keep.
32:35So you're telling me your last name is Beaumont?
32:42Why does that matter?
32:44Victor Beaumont.
32:48Yes. His father built their company.
32:51No.
32:53He took it from mine.
33:04That family didn't acquire us.
33:08They gutted us.
33:11And then they buried the story.
33:13So Knox, what is your real name?
33:15It was.
33:16Before everything was stolen.
33:19Mavali tried to do business with them.
33:22But they set him up.
33:24Stole his patents.
33:26All our assets.
33:30And my father, he...
33:33He couldn't live.
33:35With the shame.
33:37I'm so sorry, Jackson.
33:45I'm done.
33:47Hiding in this garage.
33:50We're taking things back.
33:51And I'm going to protect you.
33:54I have to go back tonight.
33:57If I don't, he'll get suspicious of us.
34:00Then be careful.
34:02Selene.
34:13There she is.
34:15Perfect timing.
34:16So, you did cook.
34:19Of course.
34:20You deserve to be spoiled.
34:23Go on.
34:24Sit.
34:30So.
34:31How was your day?
34:34I just ran some errands.
34:37Like what I've done with the place.
34:40What?
34:41Look around.
34:50You've worked up quite the appetite.
34:52Eat.
34:57You had someone follow me?
34:59You're sick.
35:01I had to keep tabs on our little shop boy.
35:04Just didn't expect to see him with my wife.
35:06You never wanted me as your wife.
35:08You just wanted something to own.
35:10I tried.
35:11I tried my hardest with you.
35:12You pushed me away.
35:14You know what?
35:15I'm done pushing.
35:17Contract's over.
35:18What are you talking about?
35:20Let my lawyer tear it up.
35:21No more divorce.
35:23No more payouts.
35:25Just marriage.
35:27Till death does part, darling.
35:29After everything I gave you.
35:30Everything I sacrificed.
35:32You can't do this.
35:34You're evil.
35:37Look at this.
35:39$12,000 a bottle.
35:42Same year Jackson Sother died.
35:47I think...
35:50We should toast to his legacy.
35:54Cheers, darling.
35:59Oh my god!
36:02Victor!
36:17Celine.
36:20What did he do to you?
36:23He told me I was his.
36:26Forever.
36:29Come on.
36:38Sorry if my clothes are a little big on you.
36:42It finally looks like I work at the shop.
36:46I told you.
36:48You look like the boss.
36:50It doesn't really feel like that after what happened tonight.
37:00It's funny.
37:03It's funny.
37:07It's funny.
37:08Nobody.
37:09It's gonna hurt you like that again.
37:14I'll make sure of it.
37:18I care about you.
37:20Celine.
37:24I want you in my life.
37:26I want you in my life.
37:30I want you in my life.
37:41I don't know.
38:11I don't know.
