00:00:00My mentor, 2,000 years, and you have an age today.
00:00:06I only got to follow you for a few decades, and now, death's at my door.
00:00:18Grandpa, please. You're too sick to be out here in this weather.
00:00:22Whoever's coming can wait. Your health comes first.
00:00:26No. Dad, she's right. We should take you to the hospital.
00:00:30I'm fine. Go inside, all of you.
00:00:40He's here.
00:00:59Oh!
00:01:12Fifty years been buying a blink, huh?
00:01:14Yeah.
00:01:15I forgot how much time passed.
00:01:16Yeah. Time catches up to everyone. Except you.
00:01:21So, who are you these days? My friend?
00:01:24Keeping it easy. Part-time swim coach.
00:01:29Oh, sorry.
00:01:34You're done.
00:01:36You can tell me, Charles, what is it you want from me?
00:01:42You can always see right through me.
00:01:45Ah.
00:01:46After following you for 50 years, consider this my last request.
00:01:51After I'm gone, please take care of my family for the next three years.
00:02:03Oh.
00:02:03Oh.
00:02:04Deal.
00:02:05For three years.
00:02:06After that, the students are on their own.
00:02:08Thank you, Mr. Langmester.
00:02:10Of course.
00:02:10What'd I tell me, Charles? How do you expect me to fit in with them?
00:02:13Don't worry.
00:02:15I'm afraid.
00:02:18Hey.
00:02:20What's going on? Are you okay?
00:02:22Elaine, I need you...
00:02:23I want to introduce you to somebody.
00:02:25This is Silas Lancaster.
00:02:28And, um, starting tonight, he's your husband.
00:02:33Grandpa, what are you talking about?
00:02:35I don't even know this guy, and I'm already in love with someone else.
00:02:39Dad?
00:02:40What the hell are you talking about?
00:02:42Who is this man?
00:02:43Mr. 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, Dad, please, I don't want to marry some stranger.
00:02:56If anyone dares to object, I will freeze every Sterling account.
00:03:03And I will go to my grave knowing that my family filled me.
00:03:09Elaine, don't be selfish.
00:03:12Do as your grandfather asks.
00:03:13He knows what's best.
00:03:15She's right, sweetheart.
00:03:16I'll arrange the marriage score.
00:03:19Don't worry, Dad.
00:03:20I'll wake it up.
00:03:27All right, Grandpa.
00:03:29I'll marry him.
00:03:32It's the only way to make sure Mr. Lancaster watches over my family and our legacy for the next three
00:03:39years.
00:03:45What the hell?
00:03:52Plan is simple.
00:03:54We hit the expensive equipment first.
00:03:56Destroy all of it.
00:03:57We're here to put the Sterling facility out of commission for good.
00:04:01Understand?
00:04:02Yeah, the boss. Good. Let's go
00:04:12The hell I get the fuck out of here get on over
00:04:32Ah
00:04:35He's a fucking monster run
00:04:57Where the hell are you?
00:04:58Sterling factory in Jersey. Why?
00:05:00What are you even doing there?
00:05:03Okay, never mind. Get to Club Pulse in Soho. You've got ten minutes
00:05:09Ten minutes? Don't get in cabin time
00:05:11Not my problem. Figure it out
00:05:17Well? What did the old ball and chain say?
00:05:21He said sure, of course
00:05:23Nice
00:05:25Alright, game on
00:05:27Ten minutes
00:05:28Mr. Wifey doesn't show
00:05:30Then you're buying drinks
00:05:32If he does, we are
00:05:34Well, then I hope you brought your black card
00:05:36Oh
00:05:39Aline, come on
00:05:40Silas is your husband
00:05:41Do you think you're being a bit harsh?
00:05:43He brought it on himself
00:05:45Since grandpa died three years ago
00:05:48I have given him so many chances to walk away
00:05:51But he refuses to divorce me
00:05:52So fine
00:05:54If he wants to stay that badly
00:05:56He can stay
00:05:56It's like having my own personal lap dog
00:06:00Honestly, even calling him bad is generous
00:06:02He teaches swim lessons
00:06:04Perf
00:06:07He actually approaches a D1 program
00:06:10They're gonna be going to nationals
00:06:12The point is you are
00:06:13Elaine Sterling
00:06:14Heirs to the Sterling Empire
00:06:16You're running the thing
00:06:19Holy shit
00:06:20Tristan is coming back into town in three days
00:06:25Please
00:06:25Your Prince Charming is coming home
00:06:27I bet you're excited
00:06:29Come on
00:06:29Gabriel, I'm married
00:06:31You guys were the it couple in college
00:06:34After your grandpa forced you to marry Silas
00:06:37His family shipped him off so he could run the Italian office
00:06:39But now that he's back
00:06:41You should dump your useless stray mutt of a husband
00:06:48Ten seconds and still no sign of old yeller
00:06:55I guess you're losing this one
00:07:01Oh, Gabriel
00:07:09Damn, Elaine
00:07:11You really trained him well
00:07:14You called
00:07:16Everything okay?
00:07:17Are you blind?
00:07:18I'm perfectly fine
00:07:20Well, you called so
00:07:22What's up?
00:07:24If you are that desperate to come to my rescue
00:07:28My shoes are dirty
00:07:29Clean them
00:07:33What? Are you too good for that?
00:07:35I mean if you can't handle something as simple as this
00:07:38What good are you to me anyway, Silas?
00:07:44Please take care of my family for the next three years
00:07:47Please take care of my family for the next three years
00:08:11Hey, you didn't disappoint
00:08:12Seriously, 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
00:08:26About yours behind my back calling me a dumb chud of your friends
00:08:30That's right
00:08:31Okay
00:08:33Wait, are you like pissed or something?
00:08:36Oh, because I
00:08:38I'm just getting started
00:08:54Well, if you hate it that much then you can leave
00:08:57I am not stopping you
00:08:59That
00:08:59I won't even pay you
00:09:01Enough to live comfortably for the rest of your life
00:09:04You know, if you have any ounce of pride left in your body
00:09:09Take the deal
00:09:10And get the hell out of my life
00:09:14If I hadn't promised your grandfather
00:09:16I'd take care of your family for three years
00:09:18I'd have walked away a long time ago
00:09:20Whatever
00:09:21Only three days left
00:09:22The time's up
00:09:23The Sterlings would never see me again
00:09:25Hey, 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
00:09:39We have a meeting tomorrow
00:09:40Come on, let me uh
00:09:41Let me drive you home
00:09:45Man
00:09:46Elaine just humiliated you
00:09:48In front of everyone
00:09:50And 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
00:09:57No shame
00:09:58No 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
00:10:21Didn't mean to humiliate me
00:10:24Whatever
00:10:25Three more days
00:10:26Then none of this will matter
00:10:29He's a
00:10:30He's a monster
00:10:31Good thing he didn't come after us
00:10:33Or we'd all be dead for sure
00:10:35That guy
00:10:35No
00:10:36That thing
00:10:37He's a human
00:10:38He's a fucking demon
00:10:39It makes sense
00:10:41John Star's no gun
00:10:42Son's useless
00:10:43The guns are spoiled
00:10:45But yet
00:10:46They still own the fucking world's medicines cabinets
00:10:49I guess now we know why
00:10:51They've got something in human going to the fucking empire
00:10:54Just get down out of fucking New York tonight
00:10:57I'm not running to the fucking freak ever again
00:11:03You're back
00:11:03Come sit down
00:11:12Where the hell have you been?
00:11:14It's already late and dinner's not even ready
00:11:16Did you want us to starve?
00:11:19I was out picking up Elaine
00:11:20And I have my own things to do
00:11:22If you guys are hungry
00:11:23You can have the maid pick you up something
00:11:24You gotta wait for me
00:11:27Excuse me
00:11:28We let you live here
00:11:30Eat our food
00:11:31And 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
00:11:40And 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
00:11:52Ready to be fed?
00:11:55Don't come back
00:11:57What is that supposed to mean?
00:12:01What's that supposed to mean?
00:12:03Are you so tired of cooking
00:12:04That you're trying to take a fight with me, Silas?
00:12:08Forget about it
00:12:11Well then get in there
00:12:12And start cooking
00:12:15Don't make me say it twice
00:12:22Oh 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
00:12:34But 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
00:12:50I know
00:12:51Mom
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
00:13:01Give him a call
00:13:02I know you two are so into each other in school
00:13:04I'm sure he'd help
00:13:11You need to land this deal, sweetheart
00:13:14The business depends on it
00:13:27Can't sleep?
00:13:28I'm keeping you up
00:13:29You 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?
00:13:57Hello
00:13:58Hi Lane
00:13:58Hi
00:13:59I'm outside
00:13:59Hello
00:14:01Hello
00:14:16I couldn't wait to see you. It'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. It's, uh...
00:14:43To Silas, who's this stray dog that you picked up?
00:14:45But now that I'm back, you can cancel this joke wedding and...
00:14:49And Elaine, will you marry me?
00:14:54Tristan, I'm glad that you're back, but this is too much. Too soon.
00:15:01Of course, it's... 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...
00:15:17Yeah?
00:15:18I have a meeting with your Uncle Mark tomorrow about the Hudson Yards Project.
00:15:22Is 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 out. No worries.
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...
00:15:37It'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.
00:15:45Okay.
00:16:00I can't sleep.
00:16:02I'll supply a 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?
00:16:12You know, since we got married, you've done everything for me.
00:16:16Never had a bad temper, never complained.
00:16:19I mean, you're just a good man.
00:16:22Kind and gentle.
00:16:24But 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.
00:16:40Sleep.
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.
00:17:00We're going with a company that was strongly recommended by our biggest investor.
00:17:04Stay out of it.
00:17:05Got it?
00:17:21Mr. 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, Miss 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 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.
00:18:23I 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, 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, look, 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.
00:19:01Uncle 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 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 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 out there.
00:20:13Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:20:14This must be Silas, right?
00:20:16Yeah, I'm Tristan Whitmore.
00:20:18Elaine's ex-boyfriend.
00:20:21Elaine's ex?
00:20:23You 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.
00:20:31Before things get ugly, of course.
00:20:32Okay.
00:20:33Silas, don't read into 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.
00:20:43I'll be home soon.
00:20:46You crossed the line, Tristan.
00:20:48Okay, look.
00:20:50I'm sorry, right?
00:20:51But I hate seeing you with that guy when you could be with me.
00:20:55I mean, you're way out of his league.
00:20:57Come on.
00:20:58Forget it.
00:20:58I should go.
00:20:59I'm just going to get an oomph.
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?
00:21:09And then we're going to toast it.
00:21:13Sounds good?
00:21:14Yeah.
00:21:16Cheers.
00:21:17To us.
00:21:20And to our past.
00:21:30I should go.
00:21:32It's...
00:21:33It's getting...
00:21:34Wait, hey, hey, Zip.
00:21:35Hey!
00:21:36Lane!
00:21:37Are you okay?
00:21:39I think I trained you.
00:21:40Okay, wait, wait.
00:21:41This is nice to me.
00:21:42Yeah?
00:21:43Yeah?
00:21:44Yeah?
00:21:47Yeah.
00:21:48Yeah.
00:21:51Lane, you know, you're even more beautiful than I remember.
00:21:54I never stopped wanting you.
00:21:56No, Tristan, stop.
00:21:58I'm married.
00:22:00Look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, I can't resist you.
00:22:05Tristan, stop.
00:22:06Stop!
00:22:06Lane, I want to be with you, yeah?
00:22:08I want to be with...
00:22:10I want us to be together.
00:22:11Don't silence.
00:22:13Together, our families will be the most powerful in the city.
00:22:17No, don't.
00:22:18No!
00:22:28Silas?
00:22:30He actually fights on me.
00:22:33Hey!
00:22:33No!
00:22:34Silas!
00:22:34Silas, stop!
00:22:35Leave him alone!
00:22:37So, you're Silas, huh?
00:22:39The loser who's been leeching off of her for years?
00:22:42Well, you know, now that you hit me, I can't finish.
00:22:46Come here!
00:22:50Silas, apologize to Tristan now.
00:22:54Silas, apologize to Tristan now.
00:22:57He fought 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, when it's like this, it's for Wayne's sake.
00:23:22Look, I'm so sorry about earlier.
00:23:24I was drunk, okay?
00:23:26It was my mistake.
00:23:27I didn't hurt you right.
00:23:27Look, I'm sorry.
00:23:28It was my fault.
00:23:29It was my fault.
00:23:29Okay, it's fine.
00:23:31Look, it's late.
00:23:32We should just go.
00:23:34We'll talk later, right?
00:23:36Can I talk to you later?
00:23:38Okay.
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, I'm guessing not.
00:24:03Oh, Jackson.
00:24:04What?
00:24:06Wow.
00:24:07Isn't that fast?
00:24:09It feels like this usually takes weeks to negotiate.
00:24:12Well, Tristan talked to his uncle.
00:24:16He really went out of his way to vouch for us.
00:24:19Of course, Tristan.
00:24:21At least there'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.
00:24:33You think Tristan got you Hudson Yards?
00:24:42So 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?
00:25:04I 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.
00:25:13You'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's slide.
00:25:20You're overreacting.
00:25:21Tristan 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 Whitmore, but his uncle sure as hell did not give him a seven-figure contract
00:25:44because his nephew asked nicely.
00:25:47Yeah.
00:25:47Okay.
00:25:49Well, then who vouched for us?
00:25:51I don't know.
00:25:52Could be anybody.
00:25:53But 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 need a girl.
00:26:06Your grandfather started this company from nothing.
00:26:08Don't be the one to ruin his legs.
00:26:16Ruin it?
00:26:18Are you kidding me?
00:26:19I am the reason that Sterling Group is thriving.
00:26:22You, on the other hand, are just a house husband living off of my family.
00:26:28But 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, because you are still just a spoiled princess who never
00:26:41had a face of reality.
00:26:43Call me spoiled all you want, but you protect me.
00:26:48Really?
00:26:50Driving me around, cooking, driving, waiting around for me?
00:26:55That is not protection, that's a family.
00:26:59Tomorrow, my promised chief grandfather, Eddance, time you finally learned the truth.
00:27:04Look, I've been holding your family together for three years now.
00:27:07You think Sterling Group's doing well because of you?
00:27:10No.
00:27:11Without me, you guys would have gone bankrupt a long time ago.
00:27:19How I guess Tristan really got under your skin, huh?
00:27:23You'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.
00:27:48Been 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.
00:27:59You crossed the line.
00:28:02What?
00:28:03I am generous enough to give you another chance.
00:28:08Say you're sorry.
00:28:10And we'll forget this happened.
00:28:13You want me to apologize?
00:28:16Yes.
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.
00:28:29This is your last chance.
00:28:33And if I don't?
00:28:35Then we're done.
00:28:37You're out of the Sterling family for good.
00:28:40You hear that?
00:28:41If you don't apologize, you're out.
00:28:44So get to it.
00:28:50And then we're done.
00:28:52Let's get a divorce.
00:28:53What?
00:28:57What did you just say?
00:28:59Marriage 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?
00:29:11Oh, thank God.
00:29:14You could do so much better than him, sweetheart.
00:29:16But what if Silas changes his mind?
00:29:19We know how obsessed he is with Elaine.
00:29:22And then we drag him to court ourselves.
00:29:24This divorce is happening tomorrow.
00:29:26Don't forget.
00:29:27It was his idea.
00:29:28Even if he changes his mind, I'm not forgiving him this time.
00:29:33Let's forget that loser.
00:29:35Well, if no one's cooking, looks like we're going out.
00:29:38Why don't you choose?
00:29:40I'm not hungry.
00:29:41You guys go ahead.
00:30:08Honey?
00:30:10What now?
00:30:13Look.
00:30:16Silas?
00:30:17Had to be.
00:30:19We were out.
00:30:20He was the only one here.
00:30:21I told you he was bluffing.
00:30:23If 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.
00:30:31If he apologizes to you tomorrow, maybe I should think about taking him back.
00:30:39I've been working on that Hudson Yards deal for a while now.
00:30:42I need some rest.
00:30:45Here.
00:30:46Want a massage?
00:30:47I knew it.
00:30:49I knew it.
00:30:49Now he's trying to butter me up.
00:30:52Fine.
00:30:57Now that it's just the two of us, say you're sorry and we can pretend like this divorce BS never
00:31:04happened.
00:31:08Hey, I'm talking to you.
00:31:11You know what I mean?
00:31:15Get some rust.
00:31:18I'm talking to you.
00:31:19Still bluffing?
00:31:21Let's see how you act at the courthouse tomorrow.
00:31:41Goodbye, Elaine.
00:31:45But today our deal ends.
00:31:47From now on, the Sterlings are on their own.
00:32:15I've been protecting Elaine and the family for three years now.
00:32:19But after today, that deal ends.
00:32:21After this, they are...
00:32:24You're on the real.
00:32:36Silas was up before sunrise making all this.
00:32:39Does this look like a man that's getting ready for a divorce?
00:32:41Maybe we keep him around for a little while.
00:32:44I've gotten used to his cooking after all.
00:32:51I've thought it over, Silas.
00:32:53I'll give you another chance.
00:32:55Sit down.
00:32:56Join us.
00:32:58I already ate.
00:32:59When you guys finish, we'll go to the courthouse and send new divorce papers.
00:33:03What?
00:33:07Okay, that is enough.
00:33:09Silas, I am sick of this attitude of yours.
00:33:13I'll wait in the car.
00:33:17I'll wait in the car.
00:33:19Elaine gives him another chance and he just walks out.
00:33:22What does he think?
00:33:23He has options?
00:33:24Divorce him, sweetheart.
00:33:26He's asking for it.
00:33:27It just might work out.
00:33:29I mean, once you're divorced, maybe you and Tristan can get back together.
00:33:33Whatever his game is, I'm calling his bluff.
00:33:39wait
00:33:40sign it first
00:33:42and then
00:33:44we're going
00:33:50you better not regret this
00:34:02i thought he was bluffing
00:34:05but he really went through with it

00:34:09a single cent
00:34:10oh

00:42:22silas what are you doing
00:42:25no there is no way that silas would block elaine
00:42:28he's probably playing some game with her to get her attention
00:42:32exactly
00:42:33that loser is sneakier than he looks
00:42:35he's probably just trying to mess with your head
00:42:37he's not worth thinking about
00:42:40i just want to know what his game is
00:42:44can you call him from your phone

00:46:49can you do me a huge favor?
00:47:02what's going on?
00:47:04what's going on?
00:47:05what's going on?
00:47:11what's going on?
00:47:19what's going on?
00:47:33what's going on?
00:47:43today? How about your sub? Coach Lancaster. Is that Elaine's ex-husband? He coaches college
00:47:51swimming part-time? You coach me. That's hilarious. It is? Why is that? You really think you can
00:47:58teach me anything about swimming? I'm the captain of the goddamn swim team. Look, I don't care if
00:48:07you're the champion of the tan. While I'm here, listen to me. He doesn't seem as spineless
00:48:13as Elaine said. Why are you so cocky? You're just a substitute. You really think you can
00:48:18teach me anything about swimming? I promise you I am more than qualified to be your coach.
00:48:23Don't gotta question that. Okay. Coach qualified? You think you can handle a little challenge?
00:48:30Challenge? What are you thinking? A race. You beat me? I'll admit you're good enough to
00:48:35coach us. Sure. Sounds good. Let's do it. Oh, not so fast. If you lose, you can strip
00:48:43naked and bark like a dog. You still feel ready? Bradley's not just the captain. He's training
00:48:51for the Olympics. The guy's a bullet in the water. Most coaches wouldn't last a lap against
00:48:57him. Bradley, Coach Lancaster's our sub today. Show him some respect. This is between us,
00:49:02Fiona. Stay out of here. Coach Lancaster, you don't have to take the challenge. No, it's
00:49:08fine. I haven't swum in ages. I could use a stretch. Let's get to it.
00:49:16Oh, no. He's asking for trouble. Did the divorce really hit him that hard?
00:49:22Bradley, come on. Let's go, Bradley. Lock him. Lock him. Lock him. Lock him. Come on.
00:49:27All right, tough guy. You've got stones. I'll give you that. 100-meter freestyle. Right
00:49:33here? Right now.
00:49:40Wow. Those abs. Okay. Definitely didn't see those coming. Hey, old man. Haven't worked
00:49:47out in ages, huh? Why don't you just quit now? We don't want you drowning in the pool.
00:49:52Okay. 50 meters down. 50 back. The first to touch the wall wins. All right, Coach Lancaster,
00:50:00you got this. Come on. The last time I swam across the Pacific was, what, 500 years ago?
00:50:07Gotta miss that.
00:50:13You got this. You got this. You got this. You got this. You got this. You got this. You got
00:50:20this.
00:50:20You got this. You got this. You got this. You got this. You got this. You got this.
00:50:29Why is it freezing all of a sudden?
00:50:40There's a shark. There's a fucking shark.
00:50:44A shark?
00:51:08I guess we're going to need a bigger pool.
00:51:15Sorry, Bradley. No one saw anything weird. Really doubling down on this whole shark sighting.
00:51:22Am I seeing things? God, I've got to be lazy. Too much damn stress.
00:51:26I'm a 500-meter butterfly. I give you a 400-meter head start.
00:51:30That's unfair.
00:51:36No. No. No. I'm just... I'm off my game. You... You win.
00:51:44Bradley's been acting like he owns the whole damn pool because his dad's on the board and he's swim captain.
00:51:49It's always creeping on girls. I'm glad someone finally knocked him down a notch.
00:51:53Sounds not good.
00:52:00Yeah, as an angel or no, please.
00:52:02Elizabeth makes her own name and I'm sorry-
00:52:02Do you?
00:52:03Oh, no. 5-clock.
00:52:06How dare youlin' back contreB concentrations?
00:52:06What a real world is there?
00:52:07Oh, very fast.
00:52:07Okay, Danielle.
00:52:10Girl.
00:52:11Admit it, you have a thing for Coach Lancaster.
00:52:15No.
00:52:15That's not true...
00:52:17I do not.
00:52:18It's not true.
00:52:22I swear, don't look at me like that.
00:52:31All right guys, good practice today.
00:52:33Have a good one, and uh...
00:52:41Coach Lancaster, you really don't remember me?
00:52:45Should I?
00:52:47I mean, we've met a few times.
00:52:50I'm Fiona Ashton, Elaine's best friend.
00:52:54Yeah, yeah, that's right.
00:52:56Um, did you, did you need something?
00:53:00No.
00:53:01Great, have a good day.
00:53:07How can someone be so clueless about women?
00:53:09It's driving me nuts.
00:53:14Ow!
00:53:18Hey, Fiona?
00:53:19You okay?
00:53:21My stomach, it hurts.
00:53:25It hurts right here.
00:53:26Calbs feel hard and tight.
00:53:29How do you know?
00:53:30It's an abdominal muscle spasm.
00:53:31It happens when you don't warm up properly before swimming.
00:53:34Great.
00:53:35Student health center's probably closed by now.
00:53:38Don't worry, I can then call an ambulance.
00:53:41No way, I'll pass out before it ever gets here.
00:53:45No way.
00:53:45Well, I know something that might help, but you gotta trust me.
00:53:49You can take this pain away?
00:53:51What are you?
00:53:52You know, sports medicine or something?
00:53:55Not exactly.
00:53:56It's just a truth I picked up from an old healer.
00:54:01Or I can do all the animals.
00:54:03No, don't be.
00:54:04Please just, just help me.
00:54:06Okay.
00:54:09Here, lie down.
00:54:14And lift your shirt up.
00:54:17I need to see your stomach.
00:54:19It's okay, Fiona.
00:54:20You can trust me.
00:54:27It might hurt a little bit, but just try to relax and keep your ass closed.
00:54:31Alright?
00:54:54Should be all good to go.
00:54:56Oh my god.
00:54:58My pain is totally gone.
00:54:59How did you-
00:55:02Wait a minute.
00:55:04I'm onto you.
00:55:07You are?
00:55:11That old healer you talk about?
00:55:14It's Mr. Miyagi, isn't it?
00:55:17God, you are unreal, Coach Lancaster.
00:55:20I mean, is there anything that you can't do?
00:55:23Well, when you live long enough, uh...
00:55:28Anyways.
00:55:30Just, uh, one moment properly.
00:55:32Some dry clothes only finish swimming and, uh, should be good.
00:55:36I'll be more diligent.
00:55:38I promise.
00:55:39Well, I, uh, guess I should be going.
00:55:43Wait.
00:55:45Are you gonna be running next swim practice, too?
00:55:49Yeah.
00:55:50Yeah, looks like it.
00:55:52Um, do you maybe want to get lunch after?
00:55:56My treat.
00:55:57Just a little way of saying thank you for helping me out.
00:56:02Thanks, bud.
00:56:03Pass.
00:56:04Have a good day.
00:56:08Seriously?
00:56:09And here, I thought that we were finally getting somewhere.
00:56:29It's been a whole week, and there's still no news of you.
00:56:36Silas, did you really disappear from my life for good?
00:56:44Elaine?
00:56:45Where have you been? We've all been trying to reach you for days.
00:56:48Just, work's been crazy.
00:56:51See, you know that you can talk to me, right?
00:56:53So what's next for you?
00:56:55Got any plans after the divorce?
00:56:58I heard Tristan's back in town.
00:56:59You two getting back together?
00:57:01Didn't know you were such a gossip, Fiona?
00:57:05Honestly, I don't feel anything for Tristan anymore.
00:57:08So there's still hope for her and Silas.
00:57:11Maybe they'll find their way back to each other.
00:57:16If you don't feel anything for Tristan, then why'd you get a divorce?
00:57:19I mean, I know that you and Silas fought... a lot.
00:57:25But...
00:57:26This time feels... final.
00:57:30So that's it then.
00:57:33Bye for good.
00:57:36Maybe... he just... got tired.
00:57:40He got tired?
00:57:41Are you saying that Silas was the one who wanted the divorce?
00:57:43Of course not. I was the one who ended.
00:57:46For what it's worth, Elaine.
00:57:49I think that Silas is a really good man.
00:57:55Come on.
00:58:00I think maybe you should take some time to think things through.
00:58:03Don't let pride make you walk away from someone that really cares about you.
00:58:07You really think he's a good man?
00:58:09A good man doesn't freeload off of my family for three years.
00:58:13He sure as hell doesn't marry a woman who's already in love with someone else.
00:58:17Wasn't Silas a victim too?
00:58:19I mean, your grandfather forced that marriage on the both of you.
00:58:22He was just trying to honor his wishes.
00:58:24And no matter how badly you treated him, Silas never lost his temper.
00:58:29Doesn't that have to count for something?
00:58:34You called me. I thought you were in trouble.
00:58:37About years behind my back calling me a dumb chud to your friends?
00:58:40That's right.
00:58:41Then we're done.
00:58:42You are out of the Sterling family for good.
00:58:47Maybe you're right, Fiona.
00:58:50But it doesn't matter. We're already divorced.
00:58:53You were married to Silas for three years.
00:58:56But you never really knew each other.
00:58:59Maybe this divorce could be the chance to start things over.
00:59:02Sit down with him as equals. Talk things through.
00:59:06You both deserve at least that much.
00:59:09I'd love to.
00:59:11But I don't even know where Silas is anymore.
00:59:15Well, then it's a good thing I do.
00:59:18You know where Silas is?
00:59:19He's been subbing as a swim coach at my university.
00:59:22Is he gonna be there tomorrow?
00:59:24Yeah, I think so.
00:59:27Elaine, what's going on? You look kinda tense.
00:59:30I... stopping. It's just a slight headache.
00:59:33Come on. I'll take you home.
00:59:37Black Ivory Coffee.
00:59:39Your favorite coffee.
00:59:41I had it flown in from Thailand this morning just for you.
00:59:44You're trying to butter me up.
00:59:45What do you want, kid?
00:59:47Am I really so obvious?
00:59:50Well, look, as you know, I've been back home for a couple of days.
00:59:54And I have been dying to help out with the family business.
00:59:57I was thinking I could take point on the Hudson Yards.
00:59:59That is a great idea.
01:00:01It's good to see you stepping up for the family.
01:00:05Thank you so much. I will not let you down, okay?
01:00:08Oh, um...
01:00:10I also did want to ask.
01:00:12I heard that there was gonna be a VIP guest at the Whitmore Estate.
01:00:16Who exactly is that person?
01:00:18What?
01:00:20What?
01:00:21What?
01:00:23What?
01:00:25Tristan?
01:00:26Tell me.
01:00:27Have you ever seen a god?
01:00:30Are you being serious?
01:00:32I haven't seen a god.
01:00:33I don't think anyone has seen a god.
01:00:36You'd be surprised.
01:00:37Imagine someone lives for over 2,000 years.
01:00:41You've seen the rise and fall of civilizations.
01:00:44Commanded armies that have changed their course of history.
01:00:48They've mastered every field of human knowledge.
01:00:51And they have a speed and a strength beyond human capabilities.
01:00:57What would you call him?
01:00:582,000 years, you say, huh?
01:01:00Is there really a person like that?
01:01:02The world is a strange place, Tristan.
01:01:04Just because you haven't seen him,
01:01:06that doesn't mean he isn't.
01:01:10All right, guys.
01:01:11Practice.
01:01:12We'll go home.
01:01:21I couldn't get the butterfly stroke if you showed me.
01:01:24It's Coach Lancaster and Ron Cam.
01:01:26I'm...
01:01:27Coach Lancaster?
01:01:29Could you please show me the butterfly again?
01:01:32Yeah.
01:01:32Better.
01:01:32Coach Lancaster.
01:01:34Hey.
01:01:35I've been expecting you.
01:01:36Great to see you again.
01:01:38Oh, I'm sorry.
01:01:40Are you guys in the middle of something?
01:01:42No, it can wait.
01:01:43Okay.
01:01:44Great.
01:01:45Then I'd like to have a word with you in my office.
01:01:47Yeah, of course.
01:01:49Why is Dean Brown fanboying all over Silas?
01:01:52Is he really just a part-time swim coach?
01:02:00Wait!
01:02:06Silas, what the hell are you doing?
01:02:08Did you really change your number just to avoid me?
01:02:11I had that number to stay in contact with.
01:02:13We're divorced now.
01:02:14Why keep it?
01:02:15So you just disappear?
01:02:18Walk out of my life like I never meant anything to you?
01:02:21Are you really that cold?
01:02:23Cold.
01:02:24I didn't ask for a divorce.
01:02:26You didn't.
01:02:35You're right.
01:02:37I was the one who brought up the divorce.
01:02:41But I wasn't serious.
01:02:43Look, I...
01:02:43I just want to talk to you.
01:02:45Can you please give me a chance?
01:02:58What?
01:02:59Used to pull out my chair for me every single time we went out.
01:03:04Didn't take you long to drop that hat, did it?
01:03:07We were divorced.
01:03:08That's in the past.
01:03:11You...
01:03:15Fine.
01:03:17We're not a couple anymore, but we're still friends.
01:03:21You could still pull out my chair for me.
01:03:24Show a little gentlemanly courtesy, right?
01:03:27We're not friends.
01:03:27I'm not gonna be a gentleman.
01:03:29You don't get to play with my emotions anymore.
01:03:31What did you just say?
01:03:32Okay, so you didn't come here to have a conversation.
01:03:34This was a mistake.
01:03:35Uh, I'm gonna go.
01:03:36How long do you plan on sulking for?
01:03:39You think I'm sulking?
01:03:41Look...
01:03:41Maybe I was too harsh before.
01:03:44But it's been days, Silas.
01:03:47I swallowed my pride to talk things through.
01:03:50Don't you think it's time to let that all go?
01:03:52Okay, so you've been harsh.
01:03:54Yes.
01:03:55I was wrong.
01:03:56I admit.
01:03:58That's why I'm here.
01:04:00To ask you to come back home.
01:04:03Want me to come back home?
01:04:06That's right.
01:04:06My parents got used to your cooking, and I got used to you taking care of me.
01:04:10If you come back, I won't be so hard on you.
01:04:14Maybe give you more spending money?
01:04:16So you want me to come back home and be a good boy for treats.
01:04:20Is that it?
01:04:21I mean, you really only view me as a family pet, don't you?
01:04:24I just want us to go back to living a good life.
01:04:27No, what you're saying is you want me to come back and cook for you and clean for you and
01:04:31be a servant to your family.
01:04:33That's not a good life.
01:04:34I don't-
01:04:35Don't test me, Silas.
01:04:37I'm running out of patience.
01:04:39If you came back to have a real conversation and apologize, I would listen.
01:04:43But you didn't.
01:04:44You came back to throw crumbs off your high horse.
01:04:46Because of that, I'm gonna go.
01:04:53Hey, I came here out of consideration for everything that you've done for me the past three years.
01:05:00But if you think that you can guilt me into submission, you are dead wrong.
01:05:05I am the Sterling heiress.
01:05:07I run half of the deals in this city.
01:05:10You really think that you can play games with me?
01:05:12You think you run half of the deals?
01:05:14That's really funny.
01:05:15Do you think any of these people would be lining up for you if it wasn't for my help?
01:05:19Your help?
01:05:20You?
01:05:20Who the hell do you think you are, Silas?
01:05:22You keep talking to me like that.
01:05:24I swear to God, I will take back every single thing I've ever given you.
01:05:27I'm sorry, what was that?
01:05:29You're taking back everything you gave me.
01:05:33Please, don't make me laugh.
01:05:35God, you have been mooching off of the Sterlings for three years, and I never said a word.
01:05:40But hearing you like this?
01:05:42Charles Sterling made this company 50 years ago, and you're going to be the one to destroy it.
01:05:47You are still the same spoiled princess who never faced reality.
01:05:51You have learned your lesson, but I feel like now's the time I should finally teach you that lesson.
01:05:55Well, please, by all means, Crayton.
01:05:58Powerful Silas, show me the error of my ways.
01:06:01Hey, guys, why are we fighting?
01:06:05I thought you said that you were going to talk things through, Aline. Start over, remember?
01:06:09Yeah, that's not necessary anymore.
01:06:11You were wrong, Fiona. Silas is not a good man.
01:06:14He was just a pathetic clown.
01:06:16No, you must have misunderstood something.
01:06:19Silas isn't like that. He's a decent person.
01:06:22Seriously?
01:06:23The man has no real job. He just sponges off of women. He is all swagger and no substance.
01:06:29What is so decent about that?
01:06:31He's not like that at all. You have it all wrong.
01:06:34Whose side are you on here, Fiona? Aren't you my friend?
01:06:37I am, but Silas is my friend, too.
01:06:41Since when?
01:06:45Wait, are you falling for him?
01:06:47No, no, it's not like that at all.
01:06:49I just, Silas is a good person, and you're a good person, too.
01:06:52I just don't think you guys should be fighting.
01:06:55Shut up, Fiona.
01:06:56If you think he's so great, then fine.
01:06:58He is all yours. Just don't ever speak to me again.
01:07:04Oh, Elaine, wait!
01:07:07I'm sorry.
01:07:08Elaine's just upset.
01:07:11So?
01:07:12No, don't defend her.
01:07:13She's still the same prideful Judd who is different from my ego,
01:07:17and won't learn her lesson until life finally knocks her down.
01:07:21Knocks her down?
01:07:23Okay.
01:07:28Dad, why would Dean Brown act deferential towards someone?
01:07:32Warren Brown deferential?
01:07:34I find that hard to imagine.
01:07:36He comes from old money.
01:07:38He's one of the most respected professors.
01:07:40He's worked with some of the most influential politicians and CEOs in the country.
01:07:44In this city, they defer to him, not the other way around.
01:07:49Weird.
01:07:50I definitely watched him totally fawn all over someone today.
01:07:54What?
01:07:55Who was that?
01:07:56Warren Brown says it's time for you to wait.
01:07:58The President will wait for him.
01:07:59I find it hard to even earn that level of respect from him.
01:08:02Wow, so Dean Brown's really that big of a deal?
01:08:08So Silas can't be just some part-time coach.
01:08:12I need to tell Elaine.
01:08:18Oh, Elaine, you're here.
01:08:20Tristan, what are you doing here?
01:08:23Well, you know, Uncle Mark, he had me lead the Hudson Project Run Point.
01:08:28Really do some logistical work and managerial stuff.
01:08:31The board gets weekly updates.
01:08:33You don't need to meet privately with me to discuss things.
01:08:35Elaine, don't be so rude.
01:08:38This project has a lot of details.
01:08:41It's a big deal for us.
01:08:43Please, talk with Tristan.
01:08:44There's nothing to talk about.
01:08:46Elaine, what are you talking about?
01:08:49No, Tristan, please.
01:08:51Don't take this personally.
01:08:53She's been on edge since the divorce.
01:08:55She didn't mean it.
01:08:57Right, Elaine?
01:08:58I will present the project updates that the next board meeting is planned.
01:09:03Tristan, it's Elaine.
01:09:06You realize I came back from London for you, right?
01:09:09And now what?
01:09:09Since you're divorced, you can't give me a chance?
01:09:12But, Elaine, don't be rude.
01:09:14This is me being polite.
01:09:16I have no interest in rehashing the past.
01:09:19So stop coming around to see me.
01:09:23Unbelievable.
01:09:24I mean, I get you the Hudson Yard project, and what?
01:09:27This is how you pay me back right now?
01:09:28Really?
01:09:29Nice try, Tristan.
01:09:30My people looked into Hudson Yards, and it was set aside for us long before your help.
01:09:37I mean, you're just a Nepo baby.
01:09:39You have zero influence over a deal this major.
01:09:43Mr. Whitmar already planned to give us the project?
01:09:46Why?
01:09:48Maybe he saw potential in us?
01:09:50Whatever the case, it has nothing to do with Tristan.
01:09:54So are you gonna leave, or do I need to show you the door?
01:09:57You'll regret this, Elaine.
01:10:05Elaine, you've been so tense lately.
01:10:08Is this about Silas?
01:10:09Of course not.
01:10:11I'm just sick of men proving that they are cut from the same disappointing cloth.
01:10:16What?
01:10:17What did I do?
01:10:19Silas, you wasted your chance.
01:10:22Don't come crawling to me when you finally realize it.
01:10:33What are you doing here, Silas?
01:10:35What?
01:10:36You've come to beg for your spot back at the Sterling house?
01:10:40Well, I hate to break it to you, but you're not welcome here anymore.
01:10:44What's the matter, Tristan?
01:10:45Sterling's kicked you out?
01:10:46Or maybe I just don't like you.
01:10:48Oh, man.
01:10:49Here's what these days.
01:10:50Got no respect.
01:10:51Don't call me kid.
01:10:53You asshole!
01:10:54I mean, if you hadn't messed up my dinner at the Japanese restaurant,
01:10:58I would be fucking Elaine by now.
01:11:07Fucking hit me.
01:11:08Break his legs!
01:11:10Okay, Mr. Whiphog?
01:11:11Be careful there, Chuds.
01:11:13What you do right now, you can't undo.
01:11:15Big talk coming from a guy who was kicked on his ass to the street by the Sterlings.
01:11:21Now, what the fuck are you guys waiting for?
01:11:22Get him!
01:11:28Oh!
01:11:28Oh!
01:11:29Oh!
01:11:31Oh!
01:11:32Oh!
01:11:35Wow.
01:11:35That's pretty impressive.
01:11:38I see where you get your attitude, but if you have forgotten, you fucked with the Whitmores.
01:11:42That's practically a death sentence.
01:11:44You're gonna keep talking or you can actually do something.
01:11:46You listen to me.
01:11:48The Whitmores.
01:11:49We're meeting with a very important VIP tonight.
01:11:52Get on your knees and beg for my forgiveness.
01:11:55And I might just let this slide.
01:11:56And what if I told you that very important guest?
01:11:59It's me.
01:12:02I mean, you're kidding me, right?
01:12:04I mean, you're just a leech that suckles from the Sterlings.
01:12:08Do you think a VIP like you, who mooches off women, is that important?
01:12:14Hey, I'm here.
01:12:15Pick me up.
01:12:16Yes, sir.
01:12:17I'm on my way.
01:12:18The game's afoot.
01:12:20Let's go.
01:12:22Would you stop with this game?
01:12:24I mean, who are you really trying to fool?
01:12:31Uncle Mark, what are you doing here?
01:12:38Our utmost respect, Divine One.
01:12:44Mr. Lancaster is more than sufficient.
01:12:47As you wish, Mr. Lancaster.
01:12:49I can't be serious.
01:12:50I mean, he's just a freeloader for the Sterlings.
01:12:53Shut up!
01:12:54I am not in a giving vein today.
01:12:57Mr. Lancaster only humbled himself living with that family
01:13:00so he could honor Charles Sterling's dying wish.
01:13:04I mean, he's too young to be the VIP.
01:13:06Mr. Lancaster is immortal.
01:13:08He's looked exactly the same for over 2,000 years.
01:13:12Listen up.
01:13:1360 years ago when he arrived,
01:13:15Mr. Lancaster made New York's most powerful families and corporations alive.
01:13:21Every one of their leaders swore loyalty to him.
01:13:25Willingly.
01:13:28You're kidding, right?
01:13:29Yet it is.
01:13:30Now, get on your knees and apologize to Mr. Lancaster.
01:13:36Mr. Lancaster, I am so sorry.
01:13:38I had no idea it was you.
01:13:39Please find it in your...
01:13:44I apologize for two reasons.
01:13:46One, I'm leaving New York.
01:13:47I'm into the world again and I'll be back for a few decades.
01:13:51When you return, we will be here.
01:13:53The Whitmore loyalty is yours today, tomorrow, and from every generation after us.
01:13:58Second, the Sterling.
01:14:02Sir, don't worry.
01:14:04I myself will make sure that the Sterlings are well taken care of in your absence.
01:14:08No.
01:14:09Charles Sterling made a Sterling company 50 years ago.
01:14:12Williams now fit to leave.
01:14:13Elaine is...
01:14:15Sarrigan.
01:14:16She's still young.
01:14:17The Sterlings will fail.
01:14:19You were right.
01:14:20As always.
01:14:21What do you need from us?
01:14:23True the Sterling group like any other company from here on out.
01:14:26No special treatment, no exceptions.
01:14:31Understood.
01:14:38Miss Sterling, Whitmore just froze the Hudson Yards project.
01:14:41They're questioning the company's qualifications and want to audit the entire project proposal.
01:14:45What?
01:14:46Our vendors are freaking out.
01:14:48Some are demanding payment in advance?
01:14:50What should we do?
01:14:52Just try to reassure them.
01:14:54I'll sort this out when I get in.
01:14:57Dammit!
01:14:58This was never a part of the deal.
01:14:59Do we have the audit file they're asking for?
01:15:02No.
01:15:02Whitmore's benchmarks are sky high.
01:15:05Sterling can't deliver.
01:15:06Honestly, I can't even think of a company in New York that could.
01:15:09What the hell is wrong with the Whitmore's?
01:15:11Why mess with us?
01:15:13Wait.
01:15:14This has to be Tristan.
01:15:15You pissed him off and he's stormed out.
01:15:17This has to be payment.
01:15:19I don't think it's him.
01:15:21Who else could it be?
01:15:22Just call him and apologize.
01:15:25This business deal means everything for us.
01:15:28If Tristan really is trying to get back at us, do you actually think that apologizing would fix anything?
01:15:34Marry him.
01:15:36Marry him.
01:15:37He's into you and this is a perfect match for our families.
01:15:40What on earth are you talking about?
01:15:49You following me?
01:15:50Look, Uncle Mark, he told me to stick by you in case you need anything, so...
01:15:54Yeah.
01:15:55He was hoping by you hanging around you'll, uh, lend me up.
01:15:58You don't miss a thing, do you, Mr. Lancaster?
01:16:01For Mark's sake.
01:16:02Sure.
01:16:03I'm gonna go for one more stroll around New York before I leave with the arrangements.
01:16:07Okay.
01:16:08Absolutely, Mr. Lancaster.
01:16:09I'll, I'll take care of all of it.
01:16:16Mr. Lancaster, can we get you some water?
01:16:18Okay, that's fine, but...
01:16:21What?
01:16:23What?
01:16:24What?
01:16:25It's fine.
01:16:26I'll be right back.
01:16:27Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:16:28Tristan, what the hell?
01:16:29Your nose is so far up this loser's ass right now.
01:16:33You okay?
01:16:38What is wrong with you?
01:16:40You hate Gabriel over Silas?
01:16:43He kept you apart from Elaine for three years.
01:16:46What?
01:16:47No!
01:16:48Don't you two ever disrespect Mr. Lancaster again, okay?
01:16:53Otherwise we are done.
01:16:54Completely.
01:16:55What the hell?
01:16:55Does he have something on you or something?
01:16:58No, my respect for him is genuine.
01:17:00And here's a little piece of advice for you two.
01:17:02Mr. Lancaster's influence is far beyond anything you could ever imagine.
01:17:06You two better start showing him some respect, and real soon.
01:17:09Is Silas someone important?
01:17:11I don't know.
01:17:13It's the way that Tristan is acting.
01:17:15Maybe?
01:17:15Me?
01:17:15We better just apologize to him and get out of here, okay?
01:17:19Silas!
01:17:20Mr. Lancaster, we are very sorry we never met any disrespect.
01:17:25Don't worry about it.
01:17:26You guys were never worth it.
01:17:28Right.
01:17:29Well, that's...
01:17:30Good, I guess.
01:17:35It's...
01:17:36The Sturmles.
01:17:39Tristan, honey.
01:17:40Elaine has something very important to say to you.
01:17:42Are you free right now?
01:17:43Maybe you could come over and have a chat.
01:17:45Sir, the Stirlings, they want to meet you. Should I turn them down?
01:17:49Let them come.
01:17:51You guys are welcome to come.
01:17:55I came as soon as I got your call. What's going on?
01:17:57We need to do a compliant audit for Hudson Yards, but we don't have the infrastructure set up yet.
01:18:03Your dad's an expert in that area. Is there any way you could help us?
01:18:07My dad's at a conference in Beijing, but I know someone who can.
01:18:11Please don't say Tristan.
01:18:13I was actually talking about Silas.
01:18:15Okay.
01:18:16I know I might sound crazy, but please just hear me out.
01:18:20Silas is actually a mythical being who has been alive for a lot longer than we thought originally.
01:18:44And it's a lot, I know.
01:18:48How could Silas possibly have anything to do with this? He's a complete nobody.
01:18:52I know it might be hard for you to believe, but Silas actually has a lot more power than you
01:18:57realize.
01:18:59So you know that I would never lie to you.
01:19:03Enough of this nonsense. Tristan's waiting.
01:19:06Elaine, let's go.
01:19:12Rebecca?
01:19:14Gabriel, what are you guys doing here?
01:19:15We just bumped into each other.
01:19:20Tristan, dear. You look more handsome every time I see you.
01:19:23Enough with the flattery, Miss Sherling. What are you really after?
01:19:26The Hudson Yards project seems to be put on hold, and we wondered if you could talk to your uncle.
01:19:32You know, smooth things over.
01:19:34Sorry, but I have no say in that.
01:19:36See? He has nothing to do with it.
01:19:38If you really want to talk to whoever calls the shots, you're going to have to speak to Mr. Lancaster
01:19:43himself.
01:19:44Mr. Lancaster?
01:19:46You mean Silas?
01:19:47Don't be ridiculous, Tristan. He doesn't have that kind of power.
01:19:51I mean, you guys only got the project because he was doing a favor for my Uncle Mark.
01:19:56Tristan, are you messing with me?
01:19:57Come on, everyone knows that you and Silas hate each other.
01:20:00You really expect me to believe a word of this?
01:20:03Would you believe it if I said it myself?
01:20:07Mr. Whitmore, how can we fix this Hudson Yards project?
01:20:11Mr. Whitmore, the Sterling Group might not have as much influence, but we signed a contract. You can't just push
01:20:17us around.
01:20:18Why do you think I gave you that contract in the first place?
01:20:21Sterling Group clearly didn't meet the qualification. It was a favor to Mr. Lancaster.
01:20:26Since he's no longer tied to your family, well, business is business.
01:20:30My God, so was Silas all along.
01:20:33What are we supposed to do now?
01:20:35I told you Elaine Silas was a good man, but no. Just had to go and divorce him, dude.
01:20:39Silas!
01:20:41Come out! I know you're here!
01:20:51Don't you ever teach you a lesson?
01:20:53So?
01:20:55What'd you learn?
01:20:56What, so that's what this is about?
01:20:58You wanted to see me break down?
01:21:00Beg for your forgiveness?
01:21:03Oh, well, guess what?
01:21:04That is never gonna happen.
01:21:07Look, I don't know how you got to the Whitmores, but Sterling Group will be just fine without Hudson Yards.
01:21:13We have plenty of other deals lined up.
01:21:14The truth is right in front of you.
01:21:16You're just choosing not to believe it.
01:21:18How do you explain the two harbor shipping licenses I secured last week?
01:21:22Massive shipments, worth billions, moving in and out every day.
01:21:27You're telling me that's because of you, too?
01:21:34Hey.
01:21:35The Sterling shipping license.
01:21:37Dancing.
01:21:38Bookports.
01:21:39Yeah, immediately.
01:21:40Thanks so much.
01:21:42We're still keeping up this little act, Silas?
01:21:46You really think that if you just snap your fingers you can shut us down?
01:21:50Any second now.
01:21:51What?
01:21:59Miss Sterling, something's wrong.
01:22:01We just heard from the Port Authority.
01:22:02They're suspending both of our shipping licenses.
01:22:04What?
01:22:05Why is this happening to me?
01:22:07I worked so hard for all of this.
01:22:10It's over.
01:22:11I've lost everything.
01:22:15Elaine, don't say that.
01:22:17Silas is still here.
01:22:18You can fix this.
01:22:20So those contracts?
01:22:21All the partnerships?
01:22:23They were all because of you?
01:22:25You believe me now?
01:22:26All this time you were helping us from behind the scenes.
01:22:31Everything we have is because of you.
01:22:34God, I paraded around.
01:22:38Proud, arrogant, showing off in front of you like a complete fool.
01:22:42You put up with three years of that.
01:22:43God, you must have hated every minute of it.
01:22:47It doesn't matter now.
01:22:48It doesn't matter now.
01:22:48I just do what a husband should do.
01:22:50And what you're always asked.
01:22:52That's all.
01:22:52I'm so sorry.
01:22:54I'm so sorry.
01:22:55Silas.
01:22:56I was terrible to you.
01:22:58I pushed you away.
01:23:00I blamed you for everything.
01:23:02As soon as we got divorced, I regretted it immediately.
01:23:05And I searched everywhere for you.
01:23:08But when I finally found you and had the chance to tell you,
01:23:12I let my pride get in the way.
01:23:14And I destroyed us all over again.
01:23:16I am so sorry.
01:23:19So sorry.
01:23:22It's true.
01:23:23Elaine's been miserable since the divorce.
01:23:26Yeah, totally.
01:23:26She tried to come back, but-
01:23:28I know.
01:23:30Silas used to wait here for me after work.
01:23:37I know you're sorry, and I accept your apology.
01:23:39And if you want, I can get Sterling Group back on track.
01:23:43I want to rebuild Sterling on my own.
01:23:46I just have one last question for you.
01:23:48Silas.
01:23:50These three years, you never really loved me.
01:23:54Did you-
01:23:55Your kindness and your patience, it was just pity, wasn't it?
01:23:59I'm sorry.
01:24:01Hey, Karen.
01:24:03You were never really equals.
01:24:05But I'm gonna change that, step by step, on my own.
01:24:10Maybe one day, you'll finally respect me.
01:24:12I'm looking forward to it.
01:24:19I guess it really has changed.
01:24:22Yeah.
01:24:23She really has.
01:24:25So, Coach, what's next for you?
01:24:28I don't know.
01:24:29Does I leave New York?
01:24:31To the world?
01:24:32We're back in a few years, though.
01:24:33So, it's what's changed.
01:24:34Take it easy to go.
01:24:38Damn, Fiona, you are so into him.
01:24:41I am not.
01:24:42I don't-
01:24:42Please, we're not blind.
01:24:44Look, everyone deserves a chance at happiness.
01:24:47So, what are you waiting for?
01:24:49Silas, wait.
01:24:51Take me with you.
