00:00:00Mentor, 2,000 years, and you have an age today.
00:00:06I only got to follow you for a few decades,
00:00:08and now, death at my door.
00:00:17Grandpa.
00:00:17Grandpa, please.
00:00:19You're too sick to be out here in this weather.
00:00:21Whoever's coming can wait.
00:00:23Your health comes first.
00:00:26No, Dad, she's right.
00:00:27We should take you to the hospital.
00:00:29I'm fine.
00:00:30Go inside, all of you.
00:00:39He's here.
00:01:11A few years been buying a blink, huh?
00:01:14Yeah.
00:01:14I forgot how much time passed.
00:01:16Time catches up to everyone, except you.
00:01:20So, who are you these days?
00:01:23No fun?
00:01:23Keeping it easy.
00:01:25Part-time swim coach.
00:01:30Sorry.
00:01:33You're done.
00:01:35You can tell me, Charles, what is it you want from me?
00:01:41You can always see right through me.
00:01:44After following you for 50 years, consider this my last quest.
00:01:50After I'm gone, please take care of my family for the next three years.
00:02:03Deal.
00:02:04After three years.
00:02:05After that, the students are on their own.
00:02:07Thank you, Mr. Lancaster.
00:02:09Of course.
00:02:09What do I tell me, Charles?
00:02:11How do you expect me to fit in with them?
00:02:12Don't worry.
00:02:14I'm fine.
00:02:18Hey.
00:02:19What's going on?
00:02:20Are you okay?
00:02:21Elaine, I need you to...
00:02:23I want to introduce you to somebody.
00:02:24This is Silas Lancaster.
00:02:27And, um, starting tonight, he's your husband.
00:02:33Grandpa, what are you talking about?
00:02:34I don't even know this guy and I'm already in love with someone else.
00:02:38Dad, what the hell are you talking about?
00:02:42Who is this man?
00:02:42Mr. Lancaster is a respected college swimming coach
00:02:46and a far better man than whoever Elaine thinks she's in love with.
00:02:51Mom.
00:02:52Dad, please.
00:02:53I don't want to marry some stranger.
00:02:55If anyone dares to object, I will freeze every Sterling account.
00:03:02And I will go to my grave knowing that my family failed me.
00:03:09Elaine, don't be selfish.
00:03:11Do as your grandfather asks.
00:03:13He knows what's best.
00:03:14She's right, sweetheart.
00:03:15I'll arrange the marriage as well.
00:03:18Don't worry, Dad.
00:03:20We'll wake it up.
00:03:26All right, Grandpa.
00:03:28I'll marry him.
00:03:31It's the only way to make sure Mr. Lancaster
00:03:34watches over my family and our legacy
00:03:37for the next three years.
00:03:45Grandpa!
00:03:46Oh, my God!
00:03:47Oh, my God!
00:03:48Oh, my God!
00:03:52Plan's simple.
00:03:53We hit the expensive equipment first.
00:03:55Destroy all of it.
00:03:57We're here to put the Sterling facility out of commission for good.
00:04:00Understand?
00:04:01Got it, boss.
00:04:02Good, let's go.
00:04:11Who the hell are you?
00:04:12Get the fuck out of here!
00:04:14Get on over here.
00:04:23Oh, my God!
00:04:25I'm sorry.
00:04:31Why are you?
00:04:31Agh!
00:04:32Agh!
00:04:33Agh!
00:04:33Agh!
00:04:33Agh!
00:04:34He's a fucking monster!
00:04:37Run!
00:04:38Agh!
00:04:40Agh!
00:04:41Agh!
00:04:42Agh!
00:04:42Agh!
00:04:43Agh!
00:04:44Agh!
00:04:56Where the hell are you?
00:04:57Uh, Sterling Factory in Jersey.
00:04:59Why?
00:05:00What are you even doing there?
00:05:03Okay, never mind.
00:05:04Get to Club Pulse in Soho.
00:05:06You've got ten minutes.
00:05:09Ten minutes?
00:05:10I don't get in cabin time.
00:05:12Not my problem.
00:05:13Figure it out.
00:05:17Well?
00:05:19What did the old ball in chain say?
00:05:22He said, sure, of course.
00:05:24Nice.
00:05:25All right, game on.
00:05:28Ten minutes.
00:05:29Mr. Wifey doesn't show, then you're buying drinks.
00:05:33If he does, we are.
00:05:35Well, then I hope you brought your black card.
00:05:39Elaine, come on.
00:05:40Silas is your husband.
00:05:42Do you think you're being a bit harsh?
00:05:44He brought it on himself.
00:05:46Since Grandpa died three years ago, I have given him so many chances to walk away, but he refuses to
00:05:52divorce me.
00:05:53So fine.
00:05:54If he wants to stay that badly, he can stay.
00:05:57It's like having my own personal lap dog.
00:06:00Honestly, even calling him that is generous.
00:06:03He teaches swim lessons.
00:06:05Perf.
00:06:08He actually approaches a D1 program.
00:06:11They're going to be going to Nashville.
00:06:12The point is, you are Elaine Sterling, heirs to the Sterling Empire.
00:06:17You're running the thing.
00:06:19Holy shit.
00:06:20Holy shit.
00:06:21Tristan is coming back into town in three days.
00:06:25Your Prince Charming is coming home.
00:06:28I bet you're excited.
00:06:29Come on.
00:06:30Gabriel, I'm married.
00:06:32You guys were the it couple in college.
00:06:35After your grandpa forced you to marry Silas, his family shipped him off so he could run the Italian office.
00:06:40But now that he's back, you should dump your useless stray mutt of a husband.
00:06:48Ten seconds and still no sign of old yeller.
00:06:55Guess you're losing this one.
00:07:02Oh, Gabriel.
00:07:10Damn, Elaine.
00:07:12You really trained him well.
00:07:15You called.
00:07:16Is everything okay?
00:07:18Are you blind?
00:07:19I'm perfectly fine.
00:07:21Well, you called, so what's up?
00:07:25If you are that desperate to come to my rescue...
00:07:29My shoes are dirty.
00:07:30Clean them.
00:07:33What?
00:07:34Are you too good for that?
00:07:36I mean, if you can't handle something as simple as this...
00:07:39How good are you to me anyway, Silas?
00:07:45Please, take care of my family for the next three years.
00:07:54Oh, come on.
00:07:58Elaine and I were just playing a little game called Dog Whistle.
00:08:04We bet that no matter where you were, if she called you, you would show up straight away like a
00:08:09good boy.
00:08:10I gotta say, you didn't disappoint us.
00:08:13Seriously, there's so much traffic right now.
00:08:15How'd you get here?
00:08:16You have wings or something?
00:08:24You called me.
00:08:25I thought you were in trouble.
00:08:27About yours behind my back, calling me a dumb chud to your friends.
00:08:30That's right.
00:08:31Okay.
00:08:33Wait, are you, like, pissed or something?
00:08:36Oh, because I...
00:08:39I'm just getting started.
00:08:54Well, if you hate it that much, then you can leave.
00:08:57I am not stopping you.
00:08:59Matt!
00:09:00I don't even pay you enough to live comfortably for the rest of your life.
00:09:04You know, if you have any ounce of pride left in your body, take the deal and get the hell
00:09:11out of my life.
00:09:14If I hadn't promised your grandfather I'd take care of your family for three years, I'd have walked away a
00:09:19long time ago.
00:09:21Whatever.
00:09:21Only three days left.
00:09:23The time's up and the Sterlings would never see me again.
00:09:26Hey, freeloader.
00:09:27Elaine is talking to you.
00:09:29Or do you need her permission to speak, too?
00:09:38It's getting late.
00:09:40We'll meet in tomorrow.
00:09:41Come on, let me, uh, let me drive you home.
00:09:46Man, Elaine just humiliated you in front of everyone, and you're still willing to be her personal Uber?
00:09:53Talk about desperate.
00:09:55I guess that's the secret to being a kept man.
00:09:58No shame.
00:09:59No spine.
00:10:02Thanks, but I'll get home myself.
00:10:12Elaine didn't mean to humiliate you.
00:10:14She's just, she's got a temper.
00:10:16That's all.
00:10:17Try not to take it to heart.
00:10:22Didn't mean to humiliate me.
00:10:25Whatever.
00:10:25Three more days.
00:10:26And none of this will matter.
00:10:29He's a monster.
00:10:32Good thing he didn't come after us or we'd all be dead for sure.
00:10:35That guy.
00:10:36No.
00:10:36That thing.
00:10:37He's a human.
00:10:38He's a fucking demon.
00:10:40Makes sense.
00:10:41John Star's no gun.
00:10:43Sounds useless.
00:10:44The runt are spoiled.
00:10:45But yet they still own the fucking world's medicine scavenage.
00:10:49Ah, I guess now we know why.
00:10:51They've got something in human going to fucking the Empire.
00:10:55Let's get the hell out of fucking New York tonight.
00:10:57I'm not running to the fucking freak ever again.
00:11:03You're back.
00:11:04Come sit down.
00:11:13Where the hell have you been?
00:11:14It's already late and dinner's not even ready.
00:11:17Did you want us to starve?
00:11:19I was out picking up Elaine.
00:11:21And I have my own things to do.
00:11:22If you guys are hungry, you can have the maid pick you up or something.
00:11:25You've got to wait for me.
00:11:27Excuse me.
00:11:28We let you live here, eat our food, and now you don't even want to cook?
00:11:33You really are ungrateful.
00:11:35You know that?
00:11:36They can't stand the maid's cooking.
00:11:38So be useful for once and start getting dinner ready, Silas.
00:11:47What if I don't?
00:11:49What if one day I don't come back?
00:11:50Would you all just sit at the table waiting to be fed?
00:11:55Don't come back.
00:11:58What is that supposed to mean?
00:12:01What's that supposed to mean?
00:12:03Are you so tired of cooking that you're trying to take a bite with me, Silas?
00:12:08Forget about it.
00:12:11Well then get in there and start cooking.
00:12:15Elaine, don't make me say it twice.
00:12:23Oh, Elaine, you have that meeting with Mr. Whitmore tomorrow.
00:12:26What are the odds that you land that Hudson Yards deal?
00:12:30We're still a few steps behind our competitors.
00:12:33But I'll do everything I can.
00:12:36You need to land this deal, sweetheart.
00:12:39The business depends on it.
00:12:43Your father just cares about golf.
00:12:46Silas is completely useless.
00:12:49You're all we've got.
00:12:51I know, Mom.
00:12:53Tristan's back in town, you know.
00:12:56And you have that meeting with his uncle tomorrow?
00:12:58Perfect timing.
00:13:00Give him a call.
00:13:02I know you two are so into each other at school.
00:13:05I'm sure he'd help.
00:13:12You need to land this deal, sweetheart.
00:13:15The business depends on it.
00:13:27Can't sleep?
00:13:28If I'm keeping you up, you can always take the couch.
00:13:31Don't worry about Hudson Yards.
00:13:33Alright?
00:13:34Don't overthink it.
00:13:36Yeah, like you know anything about business.
00:13:39It's not as simple as frying an egg.
00:13:56Hello?
00:13:58Elaine.
00:13:59I'm outside.
00:14:16I couldn't wait to see you.
00:14:18It's been too long.
00:14:23Wait, I thought you weren't coming back for another three days.
00:14:27Oh, I mean, that's what I told everyone, but of course, you're not everyone.
00:14:32I couldn't go another day without seeing you.
00:14:35Tristan, I'm sorry, but I'm married.
00:14:40I know.
00:14:41It's, uh, to Silas.
00:14:44This is a stray dog that you picked up, but now that I'm back, you can cancel this joke wedding.
00:14:49And Elaine, will you marry me?
00:14:53Uh, Tristan, I'm glad that you're back, but this is too much.
00:14:58Too soon.
00:15:01For real.
00:15:02Of course, it's, uh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable.
00:15:06Look, you can take your time, and honestly, just seeing you tonight, I mean, that was enough for me.
00:15:11Good night.
00:15:15Tristan.
00:15:18I have a meeting with your Uncle Mark tomorrow about the Hudson Yards project.
00:15:23Is there any chance you can put in a good word for me?
00:15:26Help me land the deal?
00:15:28I can help you, Adam.
00:15:29No way.
00:15:29Oh, thank you.
00:15:31Tristan, if I can pull this deal off, I will owe you.
00:15:34Big time.
00:15:34Look, look, look.
00:15:35I can handle it, okay?
00:15:37It just, it's freezing cold out here, and I really don't want you to catch a cold.
00:15:40So, you should probably go back inside.
00:15:42I'll talk to you tomorrow.
00:15:44Bye.
00:15:45Bye.
00:16:00I couldn't sleep.
00:16:02I'll some hot tea might help.
00:16:05Wait.
00:16:07Are you really not going to ask where I was just now?
00:16:10Can you tell me if I did?
00:16:11You know, since we got married, you've done everything for me.
00:16:17You never had a bad temper, you never complained.
00:16:20You're just a good man.
00:16:22Kind and gentle.
00:16:25But I need you to understand something.
00:16:27Even if you spent another decade by my side, nothing is ever going to happen between us.
00:16:34Kind and gentle is just another way of saying weak.
00:16:38Get some rest.
00:16:40It's late.
00:16:49Hello?
00:16:50Hi, Uncle Mark.
00:16:51I know it's late, but...
00:16:53I need a favor.
00:16:54Hudson Yards.
00:16:57Look, I'm going to stop you right there.
00:16:58That deal is done.
00:16:59We're going with a company that was strongly recommended by our biggest investor.
00:17:04Stay out of it.
00:17:05Got it?
00:17:19Got it?
00:17:21Mr. Whitmore, I know that Sterling Group isn't the most obvious choice for the Hudson Yards project.
00:17:28But if you give us a shot, I will personally oversee every detail, and I promise you we will exceed
00:17:35your expectations.
00:17:40Don't worry, Ms. Sterling.
00:17:43Hudson Yards is yours.
00:17:48Contract's already drawn up.
00:17:50Just sign it, and we're good to go.
00:17:52Mr. Whitmore, you don't even want to look at our proposal?
00:17:54Don't need to.
00:17:56Someone I trust vouched for Sterling Group personally.
00:17:59I have complete faith.
00:18:02Here.
00:18:05Who will exactly vouch for us?
00:18:09Let's just say it's someone who is, uh, very close to you.
00:18:15It had to be Tristan.
00:18:17It had to be Tristan.
00:18:19Thank you, Mr. Whitmore.
00:18:21We will not let you down.
00:18:22I am sure you won't.
00:18:33Hey.
00:18:34Sir, I followed your instructions to the letter, Mr. Lancaster.
00:18:38Mrs. Sterling, she just signed the contract.
00:18:41Great.
00:18:42I'm here big time, Mark.
00:18:43Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
00:18:45I'm, I'm happy that I was able to help.
00:18:47If there's anything else you need, just say the word.
00:18:52Hey, Lane.
00:18:53Look, I'm so sorry.
00:18:54Tristan, we got the Hudson Yards project.
00:18:56It is all thanks to you.
00:18:58You're a lifesaver.
00:19:00Wait, Uncle Mark said that the project had already been assigned.
00:19:04Did he change his mind to do me a favor?
00:19:06Yeah, no big deal.
00:19:07I mean, as long as you're happy, that's, that's all that matters.
00:19:10Um, can I get you lunch?
00:19:12No.
00:19:13After everything you've done, I owe you this one.
00:19:26Oh, my cheeks feel hot.
00:19:29I think I've had too much.
00:19:31Really, I mean, I think you look gorgeous.
00:19:33I mean, as always.
00:19:35You know, I remember when we were in college.
00:19:37Everyone used to say that we were so good together.
00:19:41I think if I'd never left for London, then we would have even had kids or something by now.
00:19:47Three years is long enough to change everything.
00:19:56Why didn't you tell me when the contract had left?
00:19:59I've been waiting here for six, seven hours.
00:20:03I'm having lunch with a friend, so you can just go, okay?
00:20:07Are you drinking?
00:20:09God, will you drop it already?
00:20:11I am hanging up.
00:20:12Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:20:14This must be Silas, right?
00:20:16Yeah, I'm Tristan Whitmore.
00:20:19Elaine's ex-boyfriend.
00:20:21Elaine's ex?
00:20:22You know, I know that I left and she had to settle for someone else, but now that I'm back,
00:20:29we should probably just walk away.
00:20:30Before things get ugly, of course.
00:20:32Okay.
00:20:33Silas, don't re-enter this.
00:20:35I'm treating Tristan to lunch because he helped me land the Hudson Yards deal.
00:20:40We had a little bit too much to drink.
00:20:42I'll be home soon.
00:20:46You crossed the line, Tristan.
00:20:48Okay, look, I'm sorry, right?
00:20:51But I hate seeing you with that guy when you could be with me.
00:20:54I mean, you're way out of this league.
00:20:56Come on.
00:20:58Forget it.
00:20:58I should go.
00:20:59I'm just going to get an Uber.
00:21:00Elaine, please.
00:21:01Look, I got all this wonderful sushi, and we have this wonderful sake.
00:21:05Let's at least have one last cheers, yeah?
00:21:07One more drink, okay?
00:21:08And then we're going to toast it.
00:21:13Sound good?
00:21:15Cheers.
00:21:17To us.
00:21:19And to our past.
00:21:30I should go.
00:21:32It's...
00:21:32It's good.
00:21:34Wait, hey, hey, hey.
00:21:35Hey!
00:21:36Wait!
00:21:37Are you okay?
00:21:38I think I tricked you.
00:21:40Okay, okay, okay, okay.
00:21:41Just rest in the morning.
00:21:42Yeah?
00:21:43Yeah?
00:21:51Okay, you know.
00:21:52You're even more beautiful than I remember.
00:21:54I never stopped wanting me.
00:21:56No, Tristan, stop.
00:21:58I'm married.
00:21:59No, no, no.
00:22:01No, no, no.
00:22:02I can't resist you.
00:22:04Tristan, stop.
00:22:06Stop!
00:22:06I want to be with you, yeah?
00:22:08I want to be with...
00:22:09I want us to be together.
00:22:11Don't silence.
00:22:12Together.
00:22:13Our feelings will be the most powerful in the city.
00:22:16No, don't.
00:22:18No.
00:22:28Silas?
00:22:29He actually fights?
00:22:32Hey!
00:22:33No!
00:22:33Silas!
00:22:34Silas, stop!
00:22:35Leave him alone!
00:22:37So, you're Silas, huh?
00:22:39The loser who has been leeching off of her for years?
00:22:42Well, now that you hit me, I'm finished.
00:22:46No!
00:22:49Silas, apologize to Tristan now.
00:22:54Silas, apologize to Tristan now.
00:22:57He forced himself on top of you.
00:22:59He will re-apologize...
00:23:00Apologize.
00:23:08I'm sorry.
00:23:13Good boy.
00:23:15You know, I'm gonna slide this down.
00:23:18That's for mine's sake.
00:23:21Okay.
00:23:22Look, I'm so sorry about earlier.
00:23:24I was drunk, okay?
00:23:25It was my mistake.
00:23:26I didn't hurt you right.
00:23:27Look, I'm sorry.
00:23:28It was my fault.
00:23:28It was my fault.
00:23:29Okay, it's fine.
00:23:31Look, look, it's late.
00:23:32We should just go.
00:23:33Well, we'll talk later, right?
00:23:35Can I talk to you later?
00:23:53Elaine, how did it go with Mr. Whitmore?
00:23:55Did you get the Hudson Yards project?
00:23:57Judging by that look?
00:23:59I'm guessing not.
00:24:03What?
00:24:04What?
00:24:05What?
00:24:07That fast?
00:24:09It feels like this usually takes weeks to negotiate.
00:24:12Well, Tristan talked to his uncle.
00:24:15He really went out of his way to vouch for us.
00:24:18Of course, Tristan.
00:24:21There's one person who knows how to get things done.
00:24:25Unlike some people who just mooch off others and never do anything useful, ever.
00:24:32You think Tristan got you, Hudson Yards?
00:24:41So if it wasn't Tristan, then who was it?
00:24:44You?
00:24:48Go make us dinner.
00:24:49Can't you see that we're starving?
00:25:03I get why you're upset.
00:25:06But I appreciate you keeping your cool back at the restaurant.
00:25:10If you'd hit Tristan, things would have gotten a lot worse.
00:25:12You're thanking me for not hitting him.
00:25:14He tried to rape you, but since you think he got you the deal, you're gonna...
00:25:18Let it slide?
00:25:20You're overreacting.
00:25:20Tristan was drunk.
00:25:22He didn't mean it.
00:25:25And you have no idea how important this deal is for Sterling Group.
00:25:31Tristan was the only one who could help.
00:25:33Just try to understand, okay?
00:25:36You think Tristan Whitmore got you the deal?
00:25:39Tristan might be a Whitmore, but his uncle sure as hell did not give him a seven-figure contract
00:25:44because his nephew asked nicely.
00:25:47Okay.
00:25:48Well, then who vouched for us?
00:25:50I don't know.
00:25:51I don't know.
00:25:52But it sure as hell was a Tristan Whitmore.
00:25:57Look, you don't need to be jealous of Tristan.
00:26:01We're married, for God's sake.
00:26:02I'd never cross that line.
00:26:04Look, Elena, you'd grow up.
00:26:05Your grandfather started this company for nothing.
00:26:08Don't be the one to ruin his legs.
00:26:16Ruin it?
00:26:17Are you kidding me?
00:26:18I am the reason that Sterling Group is thriving.
00:26:21I mean, you, on the other hand, are just a house husband living off of my family.
00:26:27But now you think that you can lecture me?
00:26:31You've really forgotten your place, haven't you?
00:26:35I mean, I protected you too much.
00:26:37Because you are still just a spoiled princess who never had a face reality.
00:26:42You call me spoiled all you want, but you protect me.
00:26:47Really?
00:26:50Driving me around, cooking, driving, waiting around for me?
00:26:54That is not protection.
00:26:56That's a fact.
00:26:58Tomorrow my promised chief grandfather ends.
00:27:01Time you finally learned the truth.
00:27:03Look, I've been holding your family together for three years now.
00:27:07You think Sterling Group's doing well because of you?
00:27:09No.
00:27:10Without me, you guys would have gone bankrupt a long time ago.
00:27:18How I guess Tristan really got under your skin, huh?
00:27:22You're actually saying that Sterling Group would fall apart without you.
00:27:27I'm just telling you the truth.
00:27:29Watch your tone with Elaine or I'll throw you out of this house.
00:27:34Just kick him out.
00:27:35I mean, a man who lives off his wife has no room to mouth off.
00:27:38Mom, Dad, please.
00:27:40Silas was just upset.
00:27:43Don't offend him, dear.
00:27:45You fulfilled your grandpa's last wish.
00:27:48You've been married for three years now.
00:27:50It's time you file for divorce.
00:27:53Exactly.
00:27:54It's time for you to dump this, Lucy.
00:27:57All right, Silas, listen.
00:27:58You crossed the line.
00:28:01What?
00:28:02I am generous enough to give you another chance.
00:28:07Say you're sorry.
00:28:09And we'll forget this happened.
00:28:13You want me to apologize?
00:28:15Yes.
00:28:17What, do you have a problem with that?
00:28:19You heard her.
00:28:21Apologize.
00:28:22Now.
00:28:25I'm losing my patience here, Silas.
00:28:28This is your last chance.
00:28:33And if I don't?
00:28:35Then we're done.
00:28:36You're out of the Sterling family for good.
00:28:39You hear that?
00:28:40If you don't apologize, you're out.
00:28:43So get to it.
00:28:50Then we're done.
00:28:51Let's get a divorce.
00:28:53What?
00:28:56What did you just say?
00:28:58Marriage court is closed by now, but we'll go tomorrow morning.
00:29:02Get the papers signed.
00:29:06Did I hear that right?
00:29:08Silas wants to divorce you?
00:29:10Oh, thank God.
00:29:13You can do so much better than him, sweetheart.
00:29:16What if Silas changes his mind?
00:29:18You know how obsessed he is with Elaine.
00:29:21I mean, I'm dragging him to court ourselves.
00:29:23This divorce is happening tomorrow.
00:29:25Don't forget.
00:29:26It was his idea.
00:29:28Even if he changes his mind, I'm not forgiving him this time.
00:29:32Just forget that loser.
00:29:34Well, if no one's cooking, looks like we're going out.
00:29:38Why don't you choose?
00:29:39I'm not hungry.
00:29:41You guys go ahead.
00:29:42Mm-hmm.
00:30:08Honey?
00:30:10What now?
00:30:12Look.
00:30:14Silas?
00:30:16Had to be.
00:30:18We were out.
00:30:19He was the only one here.
00:30:20I told you he was bluffing.
00:30:22If he really wanted a divorce, he wouldn't go around cleaning like some maid.
00:30:27Unless he wants us to look like the bad guys or something.
00:30:30If he apologizes to you tomorrow, maybe you should think about taking him back.
00:30:39Been working on that Hudson Yards deal for a while now.
00:30:42Need some rest.
00:30:44Here.
00:30:45Want a massage?
00:30:47I knew it.
00:30:48Now he's trying to butter me up.
00:30:51Fine.
00:30:56Now that it's just the two of us, say you're sorry, and we can pretend like this divorce
00:31:02BS never happened.
00:31:08Hey, I'm talking to you.
00:31:11You know what?
00:31:15It's a rush.
00:31:18Still bluffing?
00:31:20Let's see how you act at the courthouse tomorrow.
00:31:41Goodbye, Elaine.
00:31:44But today, our deal ends.
00:31:46From now on, the Sterlings are on their own.
00:32:12How you doing, old friend?
00:32:15I've been protecting Elaine and the family for three years now.
00:32:18But after today, that deal ends.
00:32:20After this, they are...
00:32:23They're on their own.
00:32:35Silas was up before sunrise making all this.
00:32:38Does this look like a man that's getting ready for a divorce?
00:32:40Maybe we keep him around for a little while.
00:32:43I've gotten used to his cooking, after all.
00:32:50I've thought it over, Silas.
00:32:52I'll give you another chance.
00:32:54Sit down.
00:32:55Join us.
00:32:57I already ate.
00:32:58When you guys finish, we'll go to the courthouse and send divorce papers.
00:33:02What?
00:33:06Okay, that is enough.
00:33:08Silas, I am sick of this attitude of yours.
00:33:12I'll wait in the car.
00:33:17Unbelievable.
00:33:18Elaine gives him another chance, and he just walks out?
00:33:21What does he think?
00:33:22He has options?
00:33:23Divorce him, sweetheart.
00:33:25He's asking for it.
00:33:26It just might work out.
00:33:28I mean, once you're divorced, maybe you and Tristan can get back together.
00:33:32Whatever his game is, I'm calling his bluff.
00:33:39Wait.
00:33:39Stand it first, and then we're going.
00:33:49You better not regret this.
00:34:02I thought he was bluffing, but he really went through with it, and didn't even ask for a single cent.
00:34:09Oh.
00:34:11And this car belongs to the Sterling, so, uh, that's real.
00:34:19Oh, my God.
00:34:21I just realized.
00:34:23Three years, and Silas never really owned a single thing.
00:34:28Even his car wasn't really his.
00:34:31It was just there to drive me around.
00:34:33All right.
00:34:35That's it, then.
00:34:37Goodbye for good.
00:34:48So, what did I even mean to him?
00:34:50Why bother marrying me at all?
00:34:53What the hell?
00:34:55Goodbye for good?
00:34:56What is that?
00:34:57Some lame attempt to make me feel guilty?
00:35:00Sad?
00:35:01Well, screw you, because I am not falling for it.
00:35:15He threw this away?
00:35:18Did I really not mean anything to him?
00:35:23Where's Silas?
00:35:26So, it's...
00:35:27Is it official?
00:35:28You two are actually divorced?
00:35:30He didn't make a scene?
00:35:31Can't beg you to forgive him?
00:35:36No.
00:35:37It was quick.
00:35:39Too quick.
00:35:40That's wonderful, sweetheart.
00:35:42You're finally free.
00:35:44It's a new beginning.
00:35:45We should go celebrate you finally getting rid of that dead weight.
00:35:48I think I just need to focus on work more.
00:35:51I'm going to the office this afternoon.
00:35:54The Hudson Yards project is already underway.
00:35:57That's my girl.
00:35:58Strong as ever.
00:35:59The worst can't get you down.
00:36:05She doesn't look happy.
00:36:07Do you think it's because of Silas?
00:36:10Honestly, I think it's normal.
00:36:12I mean, you can get attached to anything after three years.
00:36:14Even a mangy mutt.
00:36:16It's just habit.
00:36:17Not love.
00:36:18True.
00:36:19Silas was useless.
00:36:21But he did take care of Elaine.
00:36:24I just think she's not used to being alone.
00:36:26She never really loved him anyway.
00:36:28Just give it a few days.
00:36:29Oh, Tristan came back to town.
00:36:32Once he hears that Elaine is divorced, I'm sure he'll come running.
00:36:36That'll cheer her up.
00:36:54Fighting with the feelings I get.
00:37:02Dancing with the shadows
00:37:04Reaching for the edge
00:37:07I feel as though I'm falling
00:37:10But I ain't falling yet
00:37:13I hold it in
00:37:15I push it out
00:37:16I breathe again
00:37:21Silas
00:37:22There's not a single trace of you left in the house.
00:37:27Is this on purpose?
00:37:29Is this your way of punishing me by erasing yourself from my life?
00:37:47Gone.
00:37:50Everything's gone.
00:37:55Silas
00:37:56You think that ghosting me
00:37:57Makes you the winner?
00:38:00I don't ever
00:38:01Want to see your face again.
00:38:10We're throwing you a fresh dark fiesta

00:50:38There's a shark! There's a fucking shark!
00:50:42A shark?
00:50:51A shark!
00:50:51Coach Lancaster touches first! Bradley bailed halfway! The race goes to the coach!
00:50:55Woo! Let's go, coach!
00:51:02I saw a fucking shark!
00:51:06Shark!
00:51:07Shark!
00:51:10I guess we're gonna need a bigger pool.
00:51:12Sorry, Bradley. No one saw anything weird.
00:51:15We're really doubling down on this whole shark sighting.
00:51:19Am I seeing things?
00:51:21God, I've gotta be lazy. Too much damn stress.
00:51:24I'm a 500 meter butterfly.
00:51:26I could be a 400 meter head start.
00:51:28That's unfair.
00:51:33No. No. I'm just...
00:51:36I'm off my dam. You...
00:51:38You win.
00:51:42Bradley's been acting like he owns the whole damn pool because his dad's on the board and he's swim captain.
00:51:47It's always creeping on girls.
00:51:49I'm glad someone finally knocked him down the notch.
00:51:52You win.
00:52:04Girl.
00:52:07Girl.
00:52:08Admit it, you have a...
00:52:10You have a thing for Coach Lancaster.
00:52:12No!
00:52:13That's not true!
00:52:14I do not!
00:52:16It's not true.
00:52:19I swear!
00:52:20Don't look at me like that.
00:52:28Alright guys.
00:52:30Good practice today.
00:52:31Have a good one and uh...
00:52:39Coach Lancaster.
00:52:40Wait.
00:52:41You really don't remember me?
00:52:43Should I?
00:52:44I mean, we've met a few times.
00:52:47I'm Fiona Ashtred.
00:52:49Elaine's best friend.
00:52:51Yeah.
00:52:52Yeah.
00:52:52That's right.
00:52:54Um...
00:52:55Did you...
00:52:55Did you need something?
00:52:57Uh...
00:52:58No.
00:52:59Great.
00:53:00Have a good day.
00:53:04How can someone be so clueless about women?
00:53:07It's driving me nuts.
00:53:11Uh...
00:53:11Ow.
00:53:15Hey, Fiona.
00:53:16You okay?
00:53:18My stomach...
00:53:19It hurts.
00:53:22Hurts right here.
00:53:24Calbs feel hard and tight.
00:53:26How do you know?
00:53:27It's an abdominal muscle spasm.
00:53:28It happens when you don't warm up properly before swimming.
00:53:31Great.
00:53:32Student at the health center is probably closed by now.
00:53:34Don't worry.
00:53:35I can...
00:53:36Then call an ambulance.
00:53:38No way.
00:53:38I'll pass out before it ever gets here.
00:53:42Well, I know something that might help, but...
00:53:44You gotta trust me.
00:53:46You mean take this pain away?
00:53:48What are you...
00:53:49No sports medicine or something?
00:53:52Not exactly.
00:53:53It's just a truth I picked up from an old healer.
00:53:58Or I can go to the ambulance.
00:53:59No.
00:54:00Please just...
00:54:02Just help me.
00:54:03Okay.
00:54:06Here, light up.
00:54:11And lift your shirt up.
00:54:14I need to see your stomach.
00:54:16It's okay, Fiona.
00:54:17You can trust me.
00:54:24It might hurt a little bit, but just try to relax and keep your eyes closed.
00:54:28Alright?
00:54:32Alright?
00:54:37Uh...
00:54:48Alright.
00:54:51Should be all good to go.
00:54:52oh my god my pain is totally gone how did you wait a minute I'm on to you
00:55:03you are?
00:55:07that old healer you talk about it's Mr. Miyagi isn't it?
00:55:14god you are unreal Coach Lancaster I mean is there anything that you can't do?
00:55:20well when you live long enough anyways just a moment properly to dry clothes on when you finish swimming and
00:55:30should be good
00:55:33I'll be more diligent I promise
00:55:36well I guess I should be going good
00:55:40wait are you gonna be running next swim practice too?
00:55:45yeah yeah looks like it
00:55:48um do you maybe want to get lunch after?
00:55:52my treat just a little way of saying thank you for helping me out
00:55:58thanks but I'll pass
00:56:00have a good day
00:56:04seriously?
00:56:06and here I thought that we were finally getting somewhere
00:56:26it's been a whole week and there's still no news of you
00:56:32Silas did you really disappear from my life for good?
00:56:40Elaine?
00:56:41where have you been? we've all been trying to reach you for days
00:56:44just work's been crazy
00:56:47see you know that you can talk to me right?
00:56:49so what's next for you?
00:56:51got any plans after the divorce?
00:56:54I heard Tristan's back in town you two getting back together?
00:56:57didn't know you were such a gossip Fiona?
00:57:01honestly I don't feel anything for Tristan anymore
00:57:04so there's still hope for her and Silas
00:57:07maybe they'll find their way back to each other
00:57:12if you don't feel anything for Tristan then why'd you get a divorce?
00:57:16I mean I know that you and Silas fought a lot
00:57:21but this time feels final
00:57:26so that's it then?
00:57:28uh, fire for good
00:57:32maybe he just got tired
00:57:35he got tired?
00:57:37are you saying that Silas was the one who wanted the divorce?
00:57:39worse than all I was the one who ended
00:57:42for what it's worth Elaine?
00:57:45I think that Silas is a really good man
00:57:51come on
00:57:55I think maybe you should take some time to think things through
00:57:59don't let pride make you walk away from someone that really cares about you
00:58:02you really think he's a good man?
00:58:05a good man doesn't freeload off of my family for three years
00:58:09he sure as hell doesn't marry a woman who's already in love with someone else
00:58:12wasn't Silas a victim too?
00:58:15I mean your grandfather forced that marriage on the both of you
00:58:18he was just trying to honor his wishes
00:58:20no matter how badly you treated him
00:58:23Silas never lost his temper
00:58:24doesn't that have to count for something?
00:58:30you called me
00:58:31I thought you were in trouble
00:58:32but you were just behind my back calling me a dumb chud to your friends
00:58:35that's right
00:58:37then we're done
00:58:38you are out of the sterling family
00:58:40for good
00:58:43maybe you're right Fiona
00:58:46but it doesn't matter we're already divorced
00:58:49you were married to Silas for three years
00:58:51but you never really knew each other
00:58:55maybe this divorce could be the chance to start things over
00:58:57sit down with him as equals
00:59:00talk things through
00:59:01you both deserve at least that much
00:59:05I'd love to
00:59:07but I don't even know where Silas is anymore
00:59:11well then it's a good thing I do
00:59:13you know where Silas is?
00:59:15he's been subbing as a swim coach on the university
00:59:18is he gonna be there tomorrow?
00:59:20yeah, I think so
00:59:22Elaine, what's going on?
00:59:24you look kinda tense
00:59:25I... stopping

01:00:00thank you so much
01:00:01I will not let you down, okay?

01:00:55is there really a person like that?
01:00:57the world is a strange place, Tristan

01:06:54just don't ever speak to me again
01:06:56Elaine wait
01:07:00I'm sorry
01:07:02Elaine's just
01:07:03upset
01:07:04that's all
01:07:05no don't defend her
01:07:06she's still the same prideful Judd
01:07:08who is
01:07:09driven by ego
01:07:10and won't learn her lesson
01:07:12until life finally knocks her down
01:07:13knocks her down?
01:07:21Dad
01:07:22why would Dean Brown
01:07:23act differential towards someone?
01:07:25Warren Brown deferential?
01:07:27I find that hard to imagine
01:07:29he comes from old money
01:07:31he's one of the most respected professors
01:07:32he's worked with some of the most influential politicians
01:07:36and CEOs in the country
01:07:37in this city
01:07:39they defer to him
01:07:40not the other way around
01:07:42weird
01:07:43I definitely watched him totally fawn all over some time
01:07:47what? who was that?
01:07:48Warren Brown says it's time for you to wait
01:07:51the president will wait for him
01:07:52I find it hard to even
01:07:53earn that level of respect for him
01:07:56Wow
01:07:56so
01:07:57Dean Brown's really that big of a deal?
01:08:01so
01:08:01Silas can't be just some part-time coach

01:09:35Mr. Whitmar already planned to give us the project?

01:14:03William's now 58
01:14:04and Elaine is
01:14:05surrogate
01:14:06she's too young
01:14:07Ms. Sterling's will fail
01:14:09you were right
01:14:10as always
01:14:12what do you need from us?
01:14:14treat the Sterling group
01:14:15like any other company

01:14:18no exceptions
01:14:28understood
01:14:29Ms. Sterling
01:14:30Whitmore just froze the Hudson Yards project
01:14:31they're questioning the company's qualifications
01:14:33and want to audit the entire project proposal
01:14:36what?
01:14:37our vendors are freaking out
01:14:38some are demanding payment in advance
01:14:40what should we do?
01:14:42just try to reassure them
01:14:45I'll sort this out when I get in
01:14:47damn it
01:14:48this was never part of the deal
01:14:50do we have the audit file they're asking for?
01:14:52no
01:14:53Whitmore's benchmarks are sky high
01:14:55Sterling can't deliver
01:14:56and honestly
01:14:57I can't even think of a company in New York that could
01:14:59what the hell is wrong with the Whitmore's?
01:15:02why mess with us?
01:15:03wait
01:15:04this has to be Tristan
01:15:06you pissed him off and he's stormed out
01:15:08this has to be payment
01:15:09I don't think it's him
01:15:11who else could it be?
01:15:12just call him and apologize
01:15:16this business deal means everything for us
01:15:19if Tristan really is trying to get back at us
01:15:21do you actually think that apologizing would fix anything?
01:15:24marry him
01:15:26marry him
01:15:27he's into you and this is a perfect match for our families
01:15:30what on earth are you talking about?

01:16:51Mr. Lancaster's influence is far beyond anything you could ever imagine
01:16:55you two better start showing him some respect and real soon
01:16:59is Silas someone important?
01:17:01I don't know
01:17:02the way that Tristan is acting maybe?

01:17:09Silas
01:17:10Mr. Lancaster
01:17:11we are very sorry we never meant any disrespect
01:17:15don't worry about it
01:17:16you guys were never worth it
01:17:17right
01:17:18well that's
01:17:19good I guess
01:17:21listen
01:17:25it's the Sterlings
01:17:28Tristan honey
01:17:30Elaine has something very important to say to you
01:17:32are you free right now?
01:17:33maybe you could come over and have a chat
01:17:35sir
01:17:36the Sterlings they want to meet you should I turn them down?
01:17:39let them come
01:17:41you guys are welcome to come
01:17:44I came as soon as I got your call what's going on?
01:17:47we need to do a compliant audit for Hudson Yards but we don't have the infrastructure set up yet
01:17:53your dad's an expert in that area is there any way he could help us?
01:17:57my dad's at a conference in Beijing but I know someone who can
01:18:00please don't say Tristan
01:18:02I was actually talking about Silas
01:18:04okay
01:18:05I know I might sound crazy
01:18:07but please just hear me out
01:18:09Silas is actually a mythical being who has been alive for a long longer than we are eventually
01:18:33and it's a lot I know
01:18:37how could Silas possibly have anything to do with this?
01:18:41he's a complete nobody
01:18:42I know it might be hard for you to believe
01:18:44but Silas actually has a lot more power than you realize
01:18:48so you know that I would never lie to you
01:18:52enough of this nonsense
01:18:54Tristan's waiting
01:18:55Elaine let's go
01:19:02Rebecca?
01:19:03Gabriel?
01:19:03what are you guys doing here?
01:19:05we just bumped into each other
01:19:09Tristan dear
01:19:10you look more handsome every time I see you
01:19:12enough with the flattery Miss Sherling
01:19:14what are you really after?
01:19:16the Hudson Yards project seems to be put on hold
01:19:18and we wondered if you could talk to your uncle
01:19:21you know smooth things over
01:19:23sorry but I have no say in that
01:19:25see?
01:19:26he has nothing to do with it
01:19:27if you really want to talk to whoever calls the shots
01:19:30you're gonna have to speak to Mr. Lancaster himself
01:19:33Mr. Lancaster?
01:19:35you mean Silas?
01:19:36don't be ridiculous Tristan
01:19:38he doesn't have that kind of power
01:19:40I mean you guys only got the project
01:19:42because he was doing a favor for my uncle Mark
01:19:45Tristan are you messing with me?
01:19:46come on everyone knows that you and Silas hate each other
01:19:49you really expect me to believe a word of this?
01:19:52would you believe it if I said it myself?
01:19:55Mr. Whitmore
01:19:56how can we fix this Hudson Yards project?
01:20:00Mr. Whitmore
01:20:00the Sterling group might not have as much influence
01:20:04but we signed a contract you can't just push us around
01:20:07why do you think I gave you that contract in the first place?
01:20:10Sterling group clearly didn't meet the qualification
01:20:12it was a favor to Mr. Lancaster
01:20:15since he's no longer tied to your family
01:20:17well business is business
01:20:19my god
01:20:19so was Silas all along
01:20:22what are we supposed to do now?
01:20:24I told you Elaine Silas was a good man
01:20:26but no
01:20:26just had to go and divorce him
01:20:28Silas
01:20:29well now
01:20:30I know you're here
01:20:39I told you I teach you a lesson
01:20:41so
01:20:43what'd you learn?
01:20:45what so that's what this is about?
01:20:47you wanted to see me break down?
01:20:49beg for your forgiveness?
01:20:51well guess what?
01:20:53that is never gonna happen
01:20:56look I don't know how you got to the Whitmore's
01:20:58but Sterling group will be just fine without Hudson Yards
01:21:01we have plenty of other deals lined up
01:21:03the truth is right in front of you
01:21:04you're just choosing not to believe her
01:21:06how do you explain the two harbor shipping licenses I secured last week?
01:21:11massive shipments worth billions moving in and out everyday
01:21:15you're telling me that's because of you too?
01:21:23hey the Sterling shipping license
01:21:25yes
01:21:26both ports
01:21:27yes
01:21:28yeah immediately
01:21:29thanks so much
01:21:30you are still keeping up this little act?
01:21:34Silas?
01:21:34you really think that if you just snap your fingers you can shut us down?
01:21:38any second now
01:21:39what?
01:21:47Miss Sterling something's wrong
01:21:48we just heard from the port authority
01:21:50they're suspending both of our shipping licenses
01:21:52what?
01:21:53why is this happening to me?
01:21:54I worked so hard for all of this
01:21:58it's over
01:21:59it's over
01:22:00I've lost everything
01:22:03Elaine don't say that
01:22:04Silas is still here
01:22:06you can fix this
01:22:07so those contracts
01:22:09all the partnerships
01:22:11they were all because of you?
01:22:13you believe me now?
01:22:14all this time
01:22:16all this time you were helping us from behind the scenes
01:22:19everything we have is because of you
01:22:22God
01:22:23I paraded around
01:22:25proud
01:22:26arrogant
01:22:26showing off in front of you like a complete fool
01:22:29no
01:22:30you put up with three years of that
01:22:31God
01:22:31you must have hated every minute of it
01:22:35doesn't matter now

01:22:38and what you're always asked
01:22:39that's all
01:22:41I'm so sorry
01:22:42Silas
01:22:44I was terrible to you
01:22:46I pushed you away
01:22:48I blamed you for everything
01:22:50as soon as we got divorced
01:22:51I regretted it immediately
01:22:53and I searched everywhere for you
01:22:56but when I finally found you
01:22:58and had the chance to tell you
01:22:59I let my pride
01:23:01get in the way
01:23:02and I destroyed us all over again
01:23:04I am so sorry
01:23:07so sorry
01:23:10it's true
01:23:11Elaine's been miserable since the divorce
01:23:13yeah totally
01:23:14she tried to come back
01:23:15but
01:23:15I know
01:23:18Silas used to wait here for me after work
01:23:24I know you're sorry
01:23:25and I accept your apology
01:23:27and if you want
01:23:28I can get Sterling Group back on track
