Transcript
00:00:02My mentor. Two thousand years. And you have an age today. I only got to follow you for a few
00:00:10decades. And now, death at my door.
00:00:19Grandpa. Grandpa, please. You're too sick to be out here in this weather. Whoever's coming can wait. Your health comes
00:00:26first.
00:00:28No, death. She's right. Maybe we should take you to the hospital. I'm fine. Go inside. All of you.
00:00:41He's here.
00:00:56No.
00:01:00No.
00:01:02No.
00:01:02No.
00:01:06No.
00:01:13No.
00:01:14You've been buying a blink, huh?
00:01:16Yeah.
00:01:16I forgot how much time passed.
00:01:18Yeah.
00:01:19Time catches up to everyone.
00:01:20Except you.
00:01:22So, who are you these days?
00:01:25Keep it easy.
00:01:27Part-time swim coach.
00:01:32Sorry.
00:01:36You're dying.
00:01:37Tell me Charles now.
00:01:39What is it you want from me?
00:01:44You can always see right through me.
00:01:47After following you for 50 years, consider this my last quest. After I'm gone, please take care of my family
00:01:56for the next three years.
00:02:04No.
00:02:05Deal.
00:02:06For three years.
00:02:08After that, the students are on their own.
00:02:09Thank you, Mr. Lancaster.
00:02:11Of course.
00:02:12What did I tell me, Charles? How do you expect me to fit in with them?
00:02:14Don't worry.
00:02:16I'm fine.
00:02:21What's going on? Are you okay?
00:02:23Elaine, I want to introduce you to somebody. This is Silas Lancaster. And starting tonight, he's your husband.
00:02:34Grandpa, what are you talking about? I don't even know this guy and I'm already in love with someone else.
00:02:40Dad, what the hell are you talking about? Who is this man?
00:02:44Mr. Lancaster is a respected college swimming coach and a far better man than whoever Elaine thinks she's in love
00:02:52with.
00:02:52Mom. Dad, please. I don't want to marry some stranger.
00:02:57If anyone dares to object, I will freeze every Sterling account.
00:03:04And I will go to my grave knowing that my family filled me.
00:03:10Elaine, don't be selfish. Do as your grandfather asks. He knows what's best.
00:03:16She's right, sweetheart. I'll arrange the marriage score.
00:03:20Don't worry, Dad. We'll make it happen.
00:03:28Alright, Grandpa. I'll marry him.
00:03:33It's the only way to make sure Mr. Lancaster watches over my family and our legacy for the next three
00:03:40years.
00:03:46Grandpa!
00:03:48Grandpa!
00:03:48Oh, my God!
00:03:48Oh, my God!
00:03:53Plan simple. We hit the expensive equipment first. Destroy all of it.
00:03:58We're here to put the Sterling facility out of commission for good. Understand?
00:04:03Gather, boss.
00:04:04Good. Let's go.
00:04:12Who the hell are you?
00:04:14Get the fuck out of here!
00:04:16Get on over here.
00:04:38Run!
00:04:43Get off!
00:04:44Get off!
00:04:45Get off!
00:04:45Get off!
00:04:45Get off!
00:04:46Get off!
00:04:57Where the hell are you?
00:04:59Uh, Sterling factory in Jersey.
00:05:01Why?
00:05:01What are you even doing there?
00:05:03Okay, never mind.
00:05:04Get to Club Pulse in Soho.
00:05:07You've got 10 minutes.
00:05:1010 minutes?
00:05:11I don't get in cabin time.
00:05:12Not my problem.
00:05:14Figure it out.
00:05:18Well, what did the old ball in chain say?
00:05:21He said, sure, of course.
00:05:24Nice.
00:05:25All right, game on.
00:05:2810 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.
00:05:41Silas is your husband.
00:05:43Do 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.
00:05:51But he refuses to divorce 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.
00:06:08He 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.
00:06:20Tristan is coming back into town in three days.
00:06:25Your Prince Charming is coming home.
00:06:27I 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
00:06:39the 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.
00:07:09Damn, 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.
00:07:21Well, you called, so what's up?
00:07:24If you are that desperate to come to my rescue...
00:07:28My shoes are dirty.
00:07:30Clean them.
00:07:33What, are you too good for that?
00:07:35I mean, if you can't handle something as simple as this...
00:07:38How good are you to me anyway, Silas?
00:07:45Please take care of my family for the next three years.
00:07:55Oh, come on.
00:07:58Elaine and I were just playing a little game called Dog Whistle.
00:08:03We bet that no matter where you were, if she called you, you would show up straight away
00:08:08like a good boy.
00:08:10I gotta say, you didn't disappoint us.
00:08:13Seriously, there's so much traffic right now.
00:08:14How'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 to your friends?
00:08:29That's right.
00:08:31Okay.
00:08:32Wait, 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.
00:08:58That, I'll 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.
00:09:13If I haven'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.
00:09:20Whatever.
00:09:21Only three days left.
00:09:22When the time's up, the Sterlings will never see me again.
00:09:25Hey, freeloader, Elaine is talking to you.
00:09:28Or do you need her permission to speak, too?
00:09:37It's getting late for me tomorrow.
00:09:39Come on, let me, uh, let me drive you home.
00:09:45Man, Elaine just humiliated you in front of everyone, and you're still willing to be her personal Uber?
00:09:52Talk about desperate.
00:09:54I guess that's the secret to being a kept man.
00:09:57No shame, no spine.
00:10:01Thanks, but I'll get home myself.
00:10:11Elaine didn't mean to humiliate you.
00:10:13She's just, she's got a temper.
00:10:15That's all.
00:10:16Try not to take it to heart.
00:10:21Didn't mean to humiliate me.
00:10:24Whatever.
00:10:25Three more days, and none of this will matter.
00:10:28He's a monster.
00:10:31Good thing he didn't come after us, or we'd all be dead for sure.
00:10:34That guy, no, that thing, he's a human.
00:10:37He's a fucking demon.
00:10:39Makes sense.
00:10:40John's turn's no gun.
00:10:42John's useless.
00:10:43The guns are spoiled.
00:10:44But yet, they still own the fucking world's medicines cabinets.
00:10:48Ah, I guess now we know why.
00:10:50They've got something in human going to the fucking empire.
00:10:54Just get the hell out of fucking New York tonight.
00:10:56I'm not running to the fucking freak ever again.
00:11:02You're back.
00:11:03Come sit down.
00:11:11Where the hell have you been?
00:11:13It's already late, and dinner's not even ready.
00:11:16Did you want us to starve?
00:11:18I was out picking up Elaine, and I have my own things to do.
00:11:21If you guys are hungry, you can have the maid pick you up something.
00:11:24You gotta wait for me.
00:11:26Excuse me.
00:11:27We let you live here, eat our food, and now you don't even want to cook?
00:11:32You really are ungrateful.
00:11:34You know that?
00:11:35They can't stand the maid's cooking.
00:11:37So be useful for once, and start getting dinner ready, Silas.
00:11:46What if I don't?
00:11:47What if one day I don't come back?
00:11:49Would you all just sit at the table, waiting to be fed?
00:11:54Don't come back?
00:11:56What is that supposed to mean?
00:12:00What's that supposed to mean?
00:12:01Are you so tired of cooking that you're trying to pick a fight with me, Silas?
00:12:07Forget about it.
00:12:09Well then get in there, and start cooking.
00:12:14Don't make me say it twice.
00:12:21Elaine, you have that meeting with Mr. Whitmore tomorrow.
00:12:24What are the odds that you land that Hudson Yards deal?
00:12:29We're still a few steps behind our competitors.
00:12:32But I'll do everything I can.
00:12:35You need to land this deal, sweetheart.
00:12:38The business depends on it.
00:12:41Your father just cares about golf.
00:12:45Silas is completely useless.
00:12:48You're all we've got.
00:12:49I know, Mom.
00:12:52Tristan's back in town, you know.
00:12:54And you have that meeting with his uncle tomorrow?
00:12:57Perfect timing.
00:12:59Give him a call.
00:13:00I know you two are so into each other at school.
00:13:03I'm sure he'd help.
00:13:10You need to land this deal, sweetheart.
00:13:13The business depends on it.
00:13:25Can't sleep?
00:13:26If I'm keeping you up, you can always take the couch.
00:13:29Don't worry about Hudson Yards.
00:13:31Alright?
00:13:32Don't overthink it.
00:13:35Yeah, like you know anything about business?
00:13:37It's not as simple as frying an egg.
00:13:54Hello?
00:13:56Elaine?
00:13:57I'm outside.
00:13:58Hello?
00:14:00Hello?
00:14:02Hello?
00:14:03Hello?
00:14:14I couldn't wait to see you. It's been too long.
00:14:21Wait, I thought you weren't coming back for another three days.
00:14:26I mean, that's what I told everyone, but of course, you're not everyone.
00:14:30I couldn't go another day without seeing you.
00:14:33Uh, Tristan, I'm sorry, but I'm married.
00:14:38I know. It's, uh, to Silas.
00:14:42This is a stray dog that you picked up, but now that I'm back, you can cancel this joke wedding
00:14:46and...
00:14:47And Elaine, will you marry me?
00:14:52Tristan, I'm glad that you're back, but this is too much. Too soon.
00:14:59Of course, it's, uh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable. Look, you can take your time, and
00:15:05honestly, just seeing you tonight, I mean, that was enough for me. Good night.
00:15:12Tristan.
00:15:15Yeah?
00:15:16I have a meeting with your Uncle Mark tomorrow about the Hudson Yards project. Is there any chance you can
00:15:23put in a good word for me? Help me land the deal?
00:15:26I can help you, Evan. No way.
00:15:27Oh, thank you. Tristan, if I can pull this deal off, I will owe you. Big time.
00:15:32Look, look, look. I can handle it, okay? It just, it's freezing cold out here, and I really don't want
00:15:37you to catch a cold. So, you should probably go back inside. I'll talk to you tomorrow.
00:15:43I'll talk to you tomorrow.
00:15:58Can't sleep. Lots of high tea might help.
00:16:02Wait.
00:16:05Are you really not gonna ask where I was just now?
00:16:08Can you tell me if I did?
00:16:09You know, since we got married, you've done everything for me. Never had a bad temper, never complained. You're just
00:16:19a good man. Kind and gentle.
00:16:22But I need you to understand something. Even if you spent another decade by my side, nothing is ever gonna
00:16:30happen between us.
00:16:31Kind and gentle. It's just another way of saying weak.
00:16:36Get some rest. It's late.
00:16:47Hello?
00:16:48Hi, Uncle Mark. Uh, I know it's late, but... I need a favor.
00:16:52Hudson Yards.
00:16:54Look, I'm gonna stop you right there. That deal is done.
00:16:57We're going with a company that was strongly recommended by our biggest investor. Stay out of it. Got it?
00:17:19Mr. Whitmore. I know that Sterling Group isn't the most obvious choice for the Hudson Yards project. But if you
00:17:27give us a shot, I will personally oversee every detail and I promise you we will exceed your expectations.
00:17:38Don't worry, Ms. Sterling. The Hudson Yards is yours. Contract's already drawn up. Just sign it and we're good to
00:17:48go.
00:17:49Mr. Whitmore, you don't even want to look at our proposal?
00:17:51Don't need to. Someone I trust vouch for Sterling Group personally. I have complete faith. Here.
00:18:03Who will exactly vouch for us?
00:18:06Let's just say it's someone who is, uh, very close to you.
00:18:12It had to be Tristan. It had to be Tristan.
00:18:16Thank you, Mr. Whitmore. We will not let you down.
00:18:20I am sure you won't.
00:18:30Hey.
00:18:31Sir, I followed your instructions to the letter, Mr. Lancaster.
00:18:35Mrs. Sterling, she just signed the contract.
00:18:38Great. I'll get big time, Mark.
00:18:40Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'm... I'm happy that I was able to help.
00:18:44If there's anything else you need, just say the word.
00:18:49Hey, look, I'm so sorry.
00:18:51Tristan, we got the Hudson Yards project.
00:18:53It is all thanks to you. You're a lifesaver.
00:18:57Wait. Uncle Mark said that the project had already been assigned.
00:19:01Did he change his mind to do me a favor?
00:19:03Yeah, no big deal. I mean, as long as you're happy, that's all that matters.
00:19:08Um, can I get you lunch?
00:19:09No. After everything you've done, I owe you this one.
00:19:23Oh, my cheeks feel hot. I think I've had too much.
00:19:27Really, I mean, I think you look gorgeous. I mean, as always.
00:19:32You know, I remember when we were in college, everyone used to say that we were so good together.
00:19:38I think if I'd never left for London, then we would have even had kids or something by now.
00:19:43Three years is long enough to change everything.
00:19:53Why didn't you tell me from the contract you left?
00:19:56I've been waiting here for six, seven hours.
00:19:59I'm having lunch with a friend, so you can just go, okay?
00:20:04Are you drinking?
00:20:05God, we drop it already? I am hanging out.
00:20:09No, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. This must be Silas, right?
00:20:13Yeah, I'm Tristan Whitmore, Elaine's ex-boyfriend.
00:20:18Elaine's ex?
00:20:19You know, I know that I left and she had to settle for someone else, but now that I'm back...
00:20:25We should probably just walk away.
00:20:27Before things get ugly, of course.
00:20:29Okay.
00:20:30Silas, don't read into this. I'm treating Tristan to lunch.
00:20:33Because he helped me land the Hudson Yards deal and...
00:20:37We had a little bit too much to drink.
00:20:39I'll be home soon.
00:20:43You crossed the line, Tristan.
00:20:45Okay, look, I'm sorry, right?
00:20:48But I hate seeing you with that guy when you could be with me.
00:20:51I mean, you're way out of this league. Come on.
00:20:54Forget it, I should go. I'm just gonna get an oopi.
00:20:57Elaine, please. Look, I got all this wonderful sushi and we have this wonderful sake.
00:21:01Let's at least have one last cheers, yeah?
00:21:04One more drink, okay?
00:21:05And then we're gonna toast it.
00:21:10Sound good?
00:21:11Yeah.
00:21:12Cheers.
00:21:13To us.
00:21:16And to our past.
00:21:27I should go. It's... It's good.
00:21:30Wait, hey, hey, hey. Hey, Mike. Are you okay?
00:21:35I think I drank too much.
00:21:37Okay, okay, okay. Just last night. Yeah?
00:21:39I'll go for you.
00:21:47Elaine, you know?
00:21:48You're even more beautiful than I remember.
00:21:51I never stopped mourning you.
00:21:52No, Tristan, stop. I'm married.
00:21:58I can't resist you.
00:22:00No, Tristan, stop. Stop!
00:22:02I want to be with you, yeah?
00:22:05I want to be with... I want us to be together.
00:22:07Don't, Silas.
00:22:09Together, our families will be the most powerful in the city.
00:22:13No, don't. No.
00:22:24Silas?
00:22:25No.
00:22:26He actually fights me.
00:22:29Hey!
00:22:29No!
00:22:30Silas!
00:22:30Silas, stop!
00:22:32Leave him alone.
00:22:33So, you're Silas, huh?
00:22:35The loser who has been leeching off of her for years?
00:22:39Well, you know, now that you hit me, I can't finish.
00:22:45Silas, apologize to Tristan now.
00:22:50Silas, apologize to Tristan now.
00:22:53He fought himself on top of you.
00:22:55You want me to apologize?
00:22:56Apologize.
00:23:04I'm sorry.
00:23:09Good boy.
00:23:11You know...
00:23:12I'm gonna slide this down.
00:23:14It's for Wayne's sake.
00:23:17Hey.
00:23:18Look, I'm so sorry about earlier.
00:23:20I was drunk, okay?
00:23:21It was my mistake.
00:23:22I didn't hurt you right.
00:23:23Look, I'm sorry.
00:23:24It was my fault.
00:23:24It was my fault.
00:23:25Okay.
00:23:26It's fine.
00:23:27Look, it's late.
00:23:28We should just go.
00:23:30Well, we'll talk later, right?
00:23:32Can I talk to you later?
00:23:48Elaine, how did it go with Mr. Whitmore?
00:23:51Did you get the Hudson Yards project?
00:23:53Judging by that look?
00:23:55I'm guessing not.
00:23:59What?
00:24:00What?
00:24:01What?
00:24:03Isn't that fast?
00:24:05It feels like this usually takes weeks to negotiate.
00:24:08While Tristan talked to his uncle, he really went out of his way to vouch for us.
00:24:14Of course.
00:24:16Of course.
00:24:16Tristan.
00:24:17There's one person who knows how to get things done.
00:24:21Unlike some people who just mooch off others and never do anything useful.
00:24:26Ever.
00:24:28You think Tristan got you Hudson Yards?
00:24:36What?
00:24:37What?
00:24:37What?
00:24:38So if it was interesting, then who was it?
00:24:39You?
00:24:43Go make us dinner.
00:24:45Can't you see that we're starving?
00:24:59I get why you're upset.
00:25:02But I appreciate you keeping your cool back at the restaurant.
00:25:05If you'd hit Tristan, things would have gotten a lot worse.
00:25:08You're thanking me for not hitting him.
00:25:10He tried to rape you, but since you think he got you the deal, you're gonna...
00:25:13Let's slide?
00:25:15You're overreacting.
00:25:16Tristan was drunk.
00:25:17He didn't mean it.
00:25:20And you have no idea how important this deal is for Sterling Group.
00:25:26Tristan was the only one who could help.
00:25:28Just...
00:25:29Just try to understand, okay?
00:25:31You think Tristan Whitmore got you the deal?
00:25:34Tristan might be a Whitmore, but...
00:25:37His uncle sure as hell did not give him a seven-figure contract because his nephew asked nicely.
00:25:43Okay.
00:25:44Well, then who vouched for us?
00:25:46I don't know.
00:25:47Took anybody.
00:25:48But it sure as hell was a Tristan Whitmore.
00:25:52Look, you don't need to be jealous of Tristan.
00:25:56We're married, for God's sake.
00:25:58I'd never cross that line.
00:26:00Look, Elena, you need to grow up.
00:26:01Your grandfather started this company for nothing.
00:26:03Don't be the one to ruin his licks.
00:26:12Ruin it?
00:26:13Are you kidding me?
00:26:14I am the reason that Sterling Group is thriving.
00:26:17And you, on the other hand, are just a house husband living off of my family.
00:26:23But, now you think that you can lecture me?
00:26:26You've really forgotten your place, haven't you?
00:26:30I mean, I protected you too much.
00:26:33Because you are still just a spoiled princess who never had a face of reality.
00:26:38Call me spoiled all you want, but you protect me.
00:26:43Really?
00:26:45Driving me around, cooking, driving, waiting around for me?
00:26:50That is not protection, that's a fact.
00:26:54Tomorrow my promised chief grandfather ends.
00:26:57Time you finally learned the truth.
00:26:59Look, I've been holding your family together for three years now.
00:27:02You think Sterling Group's doing well because of you?
00:27:05No.
00:27:06Without me, you guys would have gone bankrupt a long time ago.
00:27:13How I guess Tristan really got under your skin, huh?
00:27:18You're actually saying that Sterling Group would fall apart without you.
00:27:22I'm just telling you the truth.
00:27:24Launch your tone with Elaine or I'll throw you out of this house.
00:27:29Just kick him out.
00:27:30I mean, a man who lives off his wife has no room to mouth off.
00:27:33Mom, Dad, please.
00:27:35Silas was just upset.
00:27:38Don't offend him, dear.
00:27:40You fulfilled your grandpa's last wish.
00:27:43Been married for three years now.
00:27:45It's time you file for divorce.
00:27:48Exactly.
00:27:49It's time for you to dump this, Lucy.
00:27:52Alright, Silas, listen.
00:27:54You crossed the line.
00:27:56What?
00:27:57I am generous enough to give you another chance.
00:28:03Say you're sorry.
00:28:04And we'll forget this happened.
00:28:08You want me to apologize?
00:28:11Yes.
00:28:12What, do you have a problem with that?
00:28:14You heard her.
00:28:16Apologize.
00:28:17Now.
00:28:20I'm losing my patience here, Silas.
00:28:23This is your last chance.
00:28:28And if I don't?
00:28:30Then we're done.
00:28:31You're out of the Sterling family for good.
00:28:35You hear that?
00:28:36If you don't apologize, you're out.
00:28:39So get to it.
00:28:45And then we're done.
00:28:46Let's get a divorce.
00:28:48Wha...
00:28:51What did you just say?
00:28:53Marriage court is closed by now,
00:28:55but we'll go tomorrow morning.
00:28:57Get the papers signed.
00:29:00Did I hear that right?
00:29:03Silas wants to divorce you?
00:29:05Oh, thank God.
00:29:08You could do so much better than him, sweetheart.
00:29:11But what if Silas changes his mind?
00:29:13You know how obsessed he is with Elaine.
00:29:16Then we'll drag him to court ourselves.
00:29:18This divorce is happening tomorrow.
00:29:20Don't forget.
00:29:21It was his idea.
00:29:22Even if he changes his mind,
00:29:25I'm not forgiving him this time.
00:29:27Let's forget that loser.
00:29:29Well, if no one's cooking,
00:29:31looks like we're going out.
00:29:33Why don't you choose?
00:29:34I'm not hungry.
00:29:35You guys go ahead.
00:29:37Mm-hmm.
00:30:03Honey?
00:30:05What now?
00:30:07Look.
00:30:10Silas?
00:30:11Had to be.
00:30:12We were out.
00:30:14He was the only one here.
00:30:15I told you he was bluffing.
00:30:17If he really wanted a divorce,
00:30:18he wouldn't go around cleaning like some maid.
00:30:21Unless he wants us to look like the bad guys or something.
00:30:25If he apologizes to you tomorrow,
00:30:28maybe you should think about taking him back.
00:30:33I've been working on that Hudson Yards deal for a while now.
00:30:36I need some rest.
00:30:39Here.
00:30:39Want a massage?
00:30:41I knew it.
00:30:43Now he's trying to butter me up.
00:30:46Fine.
00:30:51Now that it's just the two of us,
00:30:53say you're sorry and we can pretend like this divorce BS never happened.
00:31:02Hey, I'm talking to you.
00:31:05You know what I mean?
00:31:07What?
00:31:09Get some rest.
00:31:13Still bluffing?
00:31:15Let's see how you act at the courthouse tomorrow.
00:31:35Goodbye, Elaine.
00:31:38But today our deal ends.
00:31:40From now on the Sterlings are on their own.
00:31:50To be fair.
00:32:06How you doing, old friend?
00:32:09I've been protecting Elaine and the family for three years now.
00:32:12But after today, that deal ends.
00:32:15After this, they are...
00:32:18They're on their own.
00:32:29Silas was up before sunrise making all this.
00:32:32Does this look like a man that's getting ready for a divorce?
00:32:35Maybe we keep him around for a little while.
00:32:37I've gotten used to his cooking after all.
00:32:44I've thought it over, Silas.
00:32:47I'll give you another chance.
00:32:48Sit down. Join us.
00:32:51I already ate.
00:32:52When you guys finish, we'll go to the courthouse and send divorce papers.
00:32:57What?
00:33:00Okay, that is enough.
00:33:02Silas, I am sick of this attitude of yours.
00:33:06I'll wait in the car.
00:33:11Unbelievable.
00:33:12Elaine gives him another chance and he just walks out.
00:33:15What does he think? He has options?
00:33:17Divorce him, sweetheart.
00:33:19He's asking for it.
00:33:20It just might work out.
00:33:22I mean, once you're divorced, maybe you and Tristan can get back together.
00:33:26Whatever his game is, I'm calling his bluff.
00:33:32Wait.
00:33:34Sign it first, and then we're going.
00:33:43You better not regret this.
00:33:56I thought he was bluffing, but he really went through with it.
00:34:00And didn't even ask for a single cent.
00:34:03Oh.
00:34:05And this car belongs to the Sterling, so, uh...
00:34:10That's real.
00:34:10It's true.
00:34:13Oh, my God.
00:34:15I just realized...
00:34:17Three years, then Silas never really owned a single thing.
00:34:22Even his car wasn't really his.
00:34:25It was just there to drive me around.
00:34:28Alright.
00:34:29That's it, then.
00:34:31Goodbye for good.
00:34:42So, what did I even mean to him?
00:34:44Why bother marrying me at all?
00:34:47What the hell?
00:34:48Goodbye for good?
00:34:50What is that?
00:34:50Some lame attempt to make me feel guilty?
00:34:53Or sad?
00:34:55Well, screw you, because I am not falling for it.
00:35:08He threw this away?
00:35:11Did I really not mean anything to him?
00:35:16Where's Silas?
00:35:19So, it's...
00:35:21Is it official?
00:35:22You two are actually divorced?
00:35:24He didn't make a scene?
00:35:25And beg you to forgive him?
00:35:29No.
00:35:31It was quick.
00:35:32Too quick.
00:35:34That's wonderful, sweetheart.
00:35:35You're finally free.
00:35:37It's a new beginning.
00:35:38We should go celebrate you finally getting rid of that dead weight.
00:35:41I think I just need to focus on work more.
00:35:44I'm going to the office this afternoon.
00:35:47The Hudson Yards project is already underway.
00:35:50That's my girl.
00:35:52Strong as ever.
00:35:53The worst can't get you down.
00:35:59She doesn't look happy.
00:36:01Do you think it's because of Silas?
00:36:04Honestly, I think it's normal.
00:36:05You can get attached to anything after three years.
00:36:07Even a mangy mutt.
00:36:09It's just habit.
00:36:10Not love.
00:36:11True.
00:36:12Silas was useless.
00:36:14But he did take care of Elaine.
00:36:17I just think she's not used to being alone.
00:36:19She never really loved him anyway.
00:36:21Just give it a few days.
00:36:23Oh.
00:36:24Tristan came back to town.
00:36:25Once he hears that Elaine is divorced,
00:36:28I'm sure he'll come running.
00:36:29That'll cheer her up.
00:36:35My mom will come running.
00:36:36He'll come running my way.
00:36:43There's no one else.
00:36:45He's not stopped in there.
00:36:46As I said, I can make fun of the night.
00:36:49I ain't seen as a star.
00:36:49Lightning will move the night for me.
00:36:52I's like, well.
00:36:53If we don't have a trip, I'm sure.
00:36:55I'm not a star.
00:36:58You're not a star.
00:37:01I feel as though I'm falling
00:37:03But I ain't falling yet
00:37:06I hold it in, I push it out
00:37:10I breathe again
00:37:16Silas, there's not a single trace of you left in the house
00:37:21Was this on purpose?
00:37:22Is this your way of punishing me by erasing yourself from my life?
00:37:31Rise, I am brave
00:37:35Just to breathe again
00:37:40Gone.
00:37:43Everything's gone.
00:37:48Silas, you think that ghosting me makes you the winner?
00:37:52I don't ever want to see your face again.
00:38:03We're throwing you a fresh dark fiesta
00:38:05To celebrate your divorce, we're at Tristan's house
00:38:07Get over here
00:38:08No, Rebecca, I'm not really near
00:38:11Hello?
00:38:30Lynn, congrats!
00:38:32I mean, freedom's never looked so good on you
00:38:44Thanks
00:38:50What's up with Elaine?
00:38:51I thought she was into you
00:38:54Look, we just...
00:38:56We just had a little misunderstanding last time I saw her
00:38:58I think she might still be mad
00:39:01Well, she's single again
00:39:03Golden opportunity like this doesn't fall into your lap every day
00:39:07Don't screw it up
00:39:08I won't let it slip this time
00:39:17Fiona can't make it
00:39:18We're swamped with exams
00:39:21She told us to take care of Elaine without her
00:39:25Let's start
00:39:27Elaine, today's all about you
00:39:30Come on, say something
00:39:32What's it like being single again?
00:39:36What's it like being single again?
00:39:40I...
00:39:40Don't really feel anything
00:39:44I...
00:39:45Don't really feel anything
00:39:47It's all good
00:39:48Just say whatever comes to mind, Elaine
00:39:50Yeah
00:39:51We know the past three years sucked for you
00:39:53So now that you finally got rid of that loser Silas
00:39:56You must have something to say
00:39:59Uh...
00:40:00These...
00:40:01Last three years have been...
00:40:04Rough
00:40:05You all know that...
00:40:07My grandfather chose Silas
00:40:09Not me
00:40:11I thought that when we finally got divorced I'd be happy
00:40:14And you are now
00:40:15Right?
00:40:17No
00:40:19We signed the papers ten hours ago
00:40:22And I'm not happy at all
00:40:23Like not even a little
00:40:24Seriously?
00:40:26Don't tell me you regret filing for divorce
00:40:30Regret it?
00:40:30Of course not
00:40:31I mean...
00:40:32The divorce is exactly what I wanted
00:40:34I just don't understand why I'm not happy
00:40:39Maybe Silas spoiled you
00:40:41I mean he was waiting on you hand and foot
00:40:43And for him to just suddenly be gone?
00:40:45Like...
00:40:45That's probably fair
00:40:46Yeah, that guy was obsessed with you
00:40:48I bet he's crying his eyes out now
00:40:52I'm not so sure about that
00:40:54But...
00:40:55Because he vanished completely
00:40:56Didn't leave a single trace behind
00:40:59Well...
00:41:00There's one way to find out
00:41:01Let's...
00:41:03Play...
00:41:03Dog Whistle!
00:41:10That's perfect!
00:41:11Okay, Elaine
00:41:12Go ahead
00:41:12We're kinda far from the city
00:41:14So let's give him, say, 15 minutes to get here?
00:41:17Okay
00:41:18Come on, guy
00:41:19I am divorced now
00:41:21Elaine, it's a phone call
00:41:23Besides, he loved it
00:41:25That guy showed up right on cue every time
00:41:27Every time?
00:41:28Really?
00:41:29It's too far
00:41:3015 minutes is impossible
00:41:33Okay, let's just call it a night
00:41:35But thank you guys for the party
00:41:38That's how we are
00:41:39Are you scared?
00:41:39Do you want to show up this time?
00:41:42Come on, Elaine
00:41:43Don't be such a buzzkill
00:41:45I mean, we're just trying to have some fun
00:41:47Come on
00:41:48I mean, don't you wanna see if your little lap dog still comes on your command?
00:41:54Fine
00:42:01Your call has been forwarded to voicemail
00:42:09Did he actually block you?
00:42:13Silas, what are you doing?
00:42:16No, there is no way that Silas would block Elaine
00:42:19He's probably playing some game with her to get her attention
00:42:23Exactly
00:42:23That loser is sneakier than he looks
00:42:26He's probably just trying to mess with your head
00:42:29He's not worth thinking about
00:42:31I just wanna know what his game is
00:42:34Can you call him from your phone?
00:42:36Tell him he has 15 minutes to get here
00:42:39And if he does, I might give him a second chance
00:42:44Wait, so you're saying you're gonna give him another chance?
00:42:48Relax, man
00:42:49We're just making fun of that idiot Silas
00:43:05Oh, maybe he didn't block Elaine, he just got rid of his number
00:43:10Wait, you guys don't think that he's so heartbroken over Elaine that he would be suicidal?
00:43:18I mean, think about it
00:43:20Elaine, he was crazy about you
00:43:22You divorced him out of nowhere
00:43:24What if he can't handle life without you?
00:43:26Really, I mean, like
00:43:27Okay, he's pathetic
00:43:29But is he that pathetic?
00:43:31Obsession makes people do crazy things
00:43:33Elaine was basically his only reason for living
00:43:38Oh!
00:43:39Silas, I apologize to Tristan now
00:43:42Then we're done
00:43:43You're out of the Sterling family
00:43:45For good
00:43:46So that's it then
00:43:48Goodbye for good
00:43:52Hey, hey, hey, Helen, are you okay?
00:43:54My chest hurts
00:43:56I'm calling 911
00:43:57No, no, no, no, I'll be okay
00:43:59Wait, wait, wait, everybody back up!
00:44:01Give her air!
00:44:03Jesus
00:44:03You don't really think that Silas would hurt himself, right?
00:44:09I mean, he may be pathetic, but we were still together for three years
00:44:12I don't want anything to happen to him
00:44:14Can one of you guys go to his place?
00:44:17Where is he?
00:44:20I...
00:44:21Don't know
00:44:25He owned a loft before we got married
00:44:27Maybe check there
00:44:28We barely know the guy, Elaine
00:44:30I mean, you're the one who was married to him for three years
00:44:33You seriously don't know where he lived?
00:44:37I guess not
00:44:38You never went to his place?
00:44:41No, never
00:44:45Wait, you guys were married for three years
00:44:47And you never went to his house?
00:44:49Look, Silas, he probably lives like in some cabin out in the woods somewhere
00:44:54I mean, why should Elaine trek out into the wilderness?
00:44:57Well, everyone knows it was a fake marriage anyway
00:45:01Elaine, does he have any friends or family we could contact?
00:45:04No, I never met any of his friends
00:45:07Let alone his family
00:45:10For three years, Silas took care of everything
00:45:14What I ate, what I wore, where I slept
00:45:17But I never bothered to learn anything about his life
00:45:21He got a big settlement in the divorce, right?
00:45:24Maybe his info is on the paperwork
00:45:25He left with nothing
00:45:27He even returned the car that he drove around in
00:45:29Wait, so then what was he after?
00:45:34Elaine, of course
00:45:35She's gorgeous
00:45:37She's smart
00:45:38She's sexy, I mean
00:45:40What guy wouldn't want to be with her?
00:45:41No way, man
00:45:42Everyone knows that they didn't even share a bed
00:45:49Alright
00:45:50Let's forget about Silas
00:45:52And let's just have some time
00:45:53Yeah?
00:45:54Get yourself a drink
00:45:55No, I'm going to find him
00:46:04Silas used to wait here for me after work
00:46:16Silas always helps me shop here
00:46:27Silas, where are you?
00:46:29Just tell me what game you're playing
00:46:39Can you do me a huge favor?
00:46:52Wow!
00:46:57Hey, Fiona
00:46:59Got plans tonight?
00:47:00I've got VIP tickets to the Rangers game
00:47:03I have plans tonight, probably
00:47:05Busy
00:47:07Yeah, I've uh
00:47:09I've actually got plans too tonight
00:47:10I forgot
00:47:14You know
00:47:15I'm the captain of the swim team
00:47:17I could
00:47:18Coach you
00:47:19If you don't
00:47:214-1-1
00:47:23Yeah?
00:47:28Who the hell are you?
00:47:29Can't you see I'm busy?
00:47:31Yeah, so
00:47:31Coach Smith is out today
00:47:33How about your sub?
00:47:34Coach Lancaster
00:47:35Coach Lancaster
00:47:36Is that
00:47:36Elaine's
00:47:37Ex-husband?
00:47:39He coaches college swimming part-time?
00:47:41Yeah
00:47:42Coach me
00:47:43That's hilarious
00:47:44It is?
00:47:45Why is that?
00:47:46You really think you can teach me anything about swimming?
00:47:49I'm the captain of the goddamn swim team
00:47:55Look, I don't care if you're the champion of the tan
00:47:58While I'm here
00:48:00Listen to me
00:48:01He doesn't seem as spineless as Elaine said
00:48:04Why are you so cocky?
00:48:05You're just a substitute
00:48:06You really think you can teach me anything about swimming?
00:48:09I promise you I am more than qualified to be your coach
00:48:12Don't gotta question that
00:48:13Okay
00:48:14Coach qualified
00:48:15Do you think you can handle a little challenge?
00:48:18Challenge?
00:48:19What are you thinking?
00:48:21A race
00:48:22You beat me?
00:48:23I'll admit you're good enough to coach us
00:48:25Sure
00:48:25Sounds good
00:48:26Let's do it
00:48:27Oh
00:48:29Not so fast
00:48:30If you lose
00:48:31You can strip naked
00:48:32And bark like a dog
00:48:34You still feel ready?
00:48:38Bradley's not just the captain
00:48:39He's training for the Olympics
00:48:42The guy's a bullet in the water
00:48:44Most coaches wouldn't last a lap against him
00:48:47Bradley
00:48:48Coach Lancaster's our sub today
00:48:49Show him some respect
00:48:50This is between us Fiona
00:48:52Stay out of here
00:48:53Coach Lancaster
00:48:55You don't have to take the challenge
00:48:56No it's fine
00:48:57I haven't swum in ages
00:49:00I could use a stretch
00:49:02Let's get to it
00:49:05Oh no
00:49:06He's asking for trouble
00:49:08Did the divorce really hit him that hard?
00:49:11Bradley come on
00:49:11Let's go Bradley
00:49:12Lock him
00:49:13Lock him
00:49:14Come on
00:49:15Alright tough guy
00:49:16You've got stones
00:49:18I'll give you that
00:49:20100 meter freestyle
00:49:21Right here?
00:49:22Right now
00:49:28Wow
00:49:29Those abs
00:49:31Okay
00:49:32Definitely didn't see those coming
00:49:34Hey old man
00:49:35Haven't worked out in ages, huh?
00:49:37Why don't you just quit now?
00:49:38We don't want you drowning in the pool
00:49:41Okay
00:49:4250 meters down
00:49:4350 back
00:49:44The first to touch the wall wins
00:49:46Alright
00:49:47Coach Lancaster
00:49:48You got this
00:49:49Come on
00:49:51The last time I swam across the Pacific was
00:49:54What?
00:49:55500 years ago?
00:49:56Gotta miss that
00:49:57You got this
00:50:02You got this
00:50:03You got this
00:50:03You got this
00:50:03You got this
00:50:03You got this
00:50:04You got this
00:50:04You got this
00:50:04You got this
00:50:05You got this
00:50:05You got this
00:50:20You got this
00:50:20You got this
00:50:30You got this
00:50:30You got this
00:50:30You got this
00:50:30You got this
00:50:30You got this
00:50:30You got this
00:50:31You got this
00:50:32You got this
00:50:35You got this
00:50:42Castor touches first, Bradley bailed half way, the race goes to the coach!
00:50:46Woo!
00:50:47Let's go, go!
00:50:53What?
00:50:53I saw a fucking shark!
00:50:57Shark.
00:50:58Shark.
00:50:59Shark.
00:51:00I guess we're gonna need a bigger pool.
00:51:03Sorry, Bradley.
00:51:04No one saw anything weird.
00:51:06You're really doubling down on this whole shark sighting?
00:51:10Am I seeing things?
00:51:12God, I've gotta be easy.
00:51:13Too much damn stress.
00:51:15I want a 500 meter butterfly.
00:51:16I'll give you a 400 meter headstruck.
00:51:19That's unfair.
00:51:24No.
00:51:25No.
00:51:25I'm just...
00:51:26I'm off my game.
00:51:28You...
00:51:28You win.
00:51:32Bradley's been acting like he owns the whole damn pool because his dad's on the board and he's swim captain.
00:51:37He's always creeping on girls.
00:51:39I'm glad someone finally knocked him down a notch.
00:51:55Girl.
00:51:58Girl.
00:51:59Admit it.
00:52:00You have a thing for Coach Lancaster.
00:52:03No.
00:52:03That's not true.
00:52:05I do not.
00:52:06It's not true.
00:52:08Dude.
00:52:09I swear.
00:52:11Don't look at me like that.
00:52:19Alright guys.
00:52:20Good practice today.
00:52:21Have a good one and uh...
00:52:29Coach Lancaster.
00:52:30Wait.
00:52:31You really don't remember me?
00:52:33You really don't remember me?
00:52:34Should I?
00:52:35I mean, we've met a few times.
00:52:37I'm Fiona Ashford.
00:52:39Elaine's best friend.
00:52:41Yeah.
00:52:43Yeah.
00:52:43That's right.
00:52:44Um...
00:52:45Did you...
00:52:46Did you need something?
00:52:48No.
00:52:49Great.
00:52:50Have a good day.
00:52:54How can someone be so clueless about women?
00:52:57It's driving me nuts.
00:53:02Ow.
00:53:05Hey, Fiona.
00:53:07Are you okay?
00:53:09My stomach...
00:53:09It hurts.
00:53:12It hurts.
00:53:13It hurts right here.
00:53:14Abs feel hard and tight.
00:53:16How do you know?
00:53:17It's an abdominal muscle spasm.
00:53:19It happens when you don't warm up properly before swimming.
00:53:22Great.
00:53:23Student health center's probably closed by now.
00:53:25Don't worry.
00:53:26I can...
00:53:27I can call an ambulance.
00:53:28No way.
00:53:29I'll pass out before it ever gets here.
00:53:32Well, I know something that might help, but...
00:53:35You gotta trust me.
00:53:37You can take this pain away?
00:53:38What do you...
00:53:39No sports medicine or something?
00:53:42Not exactly.
00:53:44It's just a trip I picked up from an old dealer.
00:53:48Or I can call the ambulance.
00:53:50No.
00:53:51Please just...
00:53:52Just help me.
00:53:54Okay.
00:53:57Here.
00:53:58Light up.
00:54:01And lift your shirt up.
00:54:04I need to see your stomach.
00:54:06It's okay, Fiona.
00:54:08You can trust me.
00:54:14It might hurt a little bit, but just try to relax and keep your ass closed.
00:54:19Alright?
00:54:41Should be all good to go.
00:54:43Oh my god.
00:54:45My pain is totally gone.
00:54:46How did you-
00:54:49Wait a minute.
00:54:51I'm on to you.
00:54:54You are?
00:54:58That old healer you talk about?
00:55:01It's Mr. Miyagi isn't it?
00:55:04God you are unreal Coach Lancaster.
00:55:08I mean is there anything that you can't do?
00:55:10Well when you live long enough.
00:55:16Anyways, just a moment properly, some bright clothes on when you finish swimming and should
00:55:21be good.
00:55:23I'll be more diligent.
00:55:25I promise.
00:55:27Well, I should be going.
00:55:31Wait, are you going to be running next swim practice too?
00:55:36Yeah, looks like it.
00:55:39Do you maybe want to get lunch after?
00:55:43My treat.
00:55:44Just a little way of saying thank you for helping me out.
00:55:48Thanks bud.
00:55:50I'll pass.
00:55:51Have a good day.
00:55:55Seriously?
00:55:56Neera, I thought that we were finally getting somewhere.
00:56:16It's been a whole week and there's still no news of you.
00:56:22Silas, did you really disappear from my life for good?
00:56:32Elaine, where have you been?
00:56:33We've all been trying to reach you for days.
00:56:35Just work's been crazy.
00:56:37Listen, you know that you can talk to me, right?
00:56:40So what's next for you?
00:56:42Got any plans after the divorce?
00:56:44I heard Tristan's back in town.
00:56:46You two getting back together?
00:56:48Didn't know you were such a gossip, Fiona.
00:56:51Honestly, I don't feel anything for Tristan anymore.
00:56:55So there's still hope for her and Silas.
00:56:58Maybe they'll find their way back to each other.
00:57:02If you don't feel anything for Tristan, then why'd you get a divorce?
00:57:06I mean, I know that you and Silas fought a lot, but this time feels final.
00:57:17So that's it then.
00:57:18Uh, far for good.
00:57:23Maybe he just got tired.
00:57:26He got tired?
00:57:27Are you saying that Silas was the one who wanted the divorce?
00:57:30Of course not.
00:57:31I was the one who ended.
00:57:33For what it's worth, Elaine, I think that Silas is a really good man.
00:57:41Come on.
00:57:46I think maybe you should take some time to think things through.
00:57:49Don't let pride make you walk away from someone that really cares about you.
00:57:53You really think he's a good man?
00:57:56A good man doesn't freeload off of my family for three years.
00:57:59He sure as hell doesn't marry a woman who's already in love with someone else.
00:58:03Wasn't Silas a victim too?
00:58:05I mean, your grandfather forced that marriage on the both of you.
00:58:08He was just trying to honor his wishes.
00:58:11No matter how badly you treated him.
00:58:13Silas never lost his temper.
00:58:15Doesn't that have to count for something?
00:58:20You called me.
00:58:22I thought you were in trouble.
00:58:23But you were just behind my back calling me a dumb chud to your friends?
00:58:26That's right.
00:58:28Then we're done.
00:58:28You are out of the Sterling family for good.
00:58:33Maybe you're right, Fiona.
00:58:36But it doesn't matter, we're already divorced.
00:58:39You were married to Silas for three years, but you never really knew each other.
00:58:45Maybe this divorce could be the chance to start things over.
00:58:48Sit down with him as equals.
00:58:50Talk things through.
00:58:52You both deserve at least that much.
00:58:56I'd love to.
00:58:57But I don't even know where Silas is anymore.
00:59:01Well, then it's a good thing I do.
00:59:04You know where Silas is?
00:59:05He's been subbing as a swim coach at my university.
00:59:08Is he gonna be there tomorrow?
00:59:10Yeah, I think so.
00:59:13Elaine, what's going on?
00:59:14You look kind of tense.
00:59:16It's nothing. It's just a slight headache.
00:59:19Come on, I'll take you home.
00:59:23Black ivory coffee.
00:59:25Your favorite coffee.
00:59:27I had it flown in from Thailand this morning just for you.
00:59:30You're trying to butter me up.
00:59:31What do you want, kid?
00:59:33Am I really so obvious?
00:59:36Well, look, as you know, I've been back home for a couple of days.
00:59:39And I have been dying to help out with the family business.
00:59:43I was thinking I could take point on the Hudson Yards.
00:59:45That is a great idea.
00:59:47It's good to see you stepping up for the family.
00:59:51Thank you so much.
00:59:52I will not let you down, okay?
00:59:53Oh, I also did want to ask.
00:59:58I heard that there was going to be a VIP guest at the Whitmore Estate.
01:00:02Who exactly is that person?
01:00:10Tristan, tell me, have you ever seen a god?
01:00:16Are you being serious?
01:00:17I haven't seen a god.
01:00:19I don't think anyone has seen a god.
01:00:22You'd be surprised.
01:00:23Imagine someone lives for over 2,000 years.
01:00:27You've seen the rise and fall of civilizations.
01:00:30Commanded armies that have changed the course of history.
01:00:34They've mastered every field of human knowledge.
01:00:37And they have a speed and a strength beyond human capabilities.
01:00:42What would you call him?
01:00:432,000 years, you say, huh?
01:00:46Is there really a person like that?
01:00:47The world is a strange place, Tristan.
01:00:50Just because you haven't seen him, that doesn't mean he isn't.
01:00:56Alright, guys. Practice.
01:00:58And go home.
01:01:06Dad, there's one.
01:01:07I couldn't get the butterfly stroke.
01:01:09Did you show me?
01:01:09It's Coach Lancaster and Ron Cam.
01:01:11Fine.
01:01:13Coach Lancaster, could you please show me the butterfly again?
01:01:17Better.
01:01:18Coach Lancaster.
01:01:19Hey, I've been expecting you.
01:01:22Great to see you again.
01:01:24Oh, I'm sorry.
01:01:25Are you guys in the middle of something?
01:01:27No, it can wait.
01:01:29Okay, great.
01:01:31Then I'd like to have a word with you in my office.
01:01:33Yeah, of course.
01:01:35Why is Dean Brown fanboying all over Silas?
01:01:38Is he really just a part-time swim coach?
01:01:45Wait!
01:01:51Silas, what the hell are you doing?
01:01:53Did you really change your number just to avoid me?
01:01:56I had that number you stay in contact with.
01:01:58We're divorced now.
01:02:00Why keep it?
01:02:01So you just disappear?
01:02:03Walk out of my life like I never meant anything to you?
01:02:06Are you really that cold?
01:02:08Cold?
01:02:09I didn't ask for a divorce.
01:02:12You didn't.
01:02:13So done with him as he thinks.
01:02:15Talk things through.
01:02:17We both deserve that much.
01:02:20You're right.
01:02:23I was the one who brought up the divorce.
01:02:26But I wasn't serious.
01:02:28Look, I just want to talk to you.
01:02:30Can you please give me a chance?
01:02:43What?
01:02:44Used to pull out my chair for me every single time we went out.
01:02:49Didn't take you long to drop that habit, did it?
01:02:52We're divorced. That's the best.
01:02:56You.
01:03:00Fine.
01:03:02We're not a couple anymore, but we're still friends.
01:03:06You could still pull out my chair for me.
01:03:09Show a little gentlemanly courtesy, right?
01:03:11We're not friends.
01:03:12I'm not going to be a gentleman.
01:03:14You don't get to play with my emotions anymore.
01:03:15What did you just say?
01:03:17Okay, so you didn't come here to have a conversation.
01:03:19This was a mistake.
01:03:20I'm going to go.
01:03:21How long do you plan on sulking for?
01:03:24You think I'm sulking?
01:03:25Look, maybe I was too harsh before.
01:03:29But it's been days, Silas.
01:03:31I swallowed my pride to talk things through.
01:03:35Don't you think it's time to let that all go?
01:03:37Okay, so you've been harsh.
01:03:39Yes.
01:03:40I was wrong.
01:03:41I admit.
01:03:42That's why I'm here.
01:03:44To ask you to come back home.
01:03:48Want me to come back home?
01:03:50That's right.
01:03:51My parents got used to your cooking and I got used to you taking care of me.
01:03:55If you come back, I won't be so hard on you.
01:03:58Maybe give you more spending money?
01:04:01So you want me to come back home and be a good boy for treats.
01:04:05Is that it?
01:04:06I mean, you really only have viewed me as a family pet, don't you?
01:04:08I just want us to go back to living a good life.
01:04:12No, what you're saying is you want me to come back and cook for you and clean for you and
01:04:16be a servant to your family.
01:04:17That's not a good life.
01:04:18I don't-
01:04:19Don't test me, Silas.
01:04:21I'm running out of patience.
01:04:23If you came back to have a real conversation and apologize, I would listen.
01:04:28But you didn't.
01:04:28You came back to throw crumbs off your high horns.
01:04:31Because of that, I'm gonna go.
01:04:37Hey, I came here out of consideration for everything that you've done for me the past three years.
01:04:44But if you think that you can guilt me into submission, you are dead wrong.
01:04:49I am the Sterling Heiress.
01:04:52I run half of the deals in this city.
01:04:54You really think that you can play games with me?
01:04:56You think you run half of the deals?
01:04:58That's really funny.
01:04:59Do you think any of these people would be lining up for you if it wasn't for my help?
01:05:03Your help?
01:05:04You?
01:05:05Who the hell do you think you are, Silas?
01:05:07You keep talking to me like that.
01:05:08I swear to God, I will take back every single thing I've ever given you.
01:05:11I'm sorry, what was that?
01:05:13You're taking back everything you gave me.
01:05:17Please, don't make me laugh.
01:05:19God, you have been mooching off of the Sterlings for three years, and I never said a word,
01:05:24but peering you like this?
01:05:27Charles Sterling made this company 50 years ago, and you're going to be the one to destroy it.
01:05:31You are still the same spoiled princess you never faced reality.
01:05:35You never learned your lesson.
01:05:36I feel like now's the time I should finally teach you that lesson.
01:05:39Well, please, by all means, great and powerful Silas, show me the error of my ways.
01:05:46Hey, guys, why are we fighting?
01:05:49I thought you said that you were going to talk things through, Aline.
01:05:52Start over, remember?
01:05:53Yeah, that's not necessary anymore.
01:05:55You were wrong, Fiona.
01:05:57Silas is not a good man.
01:05:58He's just a pathetic clown.
01:06:01No, you must have misunderstood something.
01:06:03Silas isn't like that.
01:06:04He's a decent person.
01:06:06Seriously?
01:06:07The man has no real job.
01:06:09He just sponges off of women.
01:06:11He is all swagger and no substance.
01:06:13What is so decent about that?
01:06:15He's not like that at all.
01:06:17You have it all wrong.
01:06:18Whose side are you on here, Fiona?
01:06:20Are you my friend?
01:06:21I am.
01:06:23But Silas is my friend, too.
01:06:25Since when?
01:06:29Wait, are you falling for him?
01:06:31No, no, it's not like that at all.
01:06:33I just, Silas is a good person.
01:06:35And you're a good person, too.
01:06:36I just don't think you guys should be fighting.
01:06:39Shut up, Fiona.
01:06:40If you think he's so great, then fine.
01:06:42He is all yours.
01:06:45Just don't ever speak to me again.
01:06:48Elaine, wait!
01:06:50I'm sorry.
01:06:52Elaine's just upset.
01:06:55So...
01:06:56No, don't defend her.
01:06:57She's still the same prideful Judd who is driven by ego
01:07:01and won't learn her lesson until life finally knocks her down.
01:07:04Knocks her down?
01:07:05Oh, gosh.
01:07:12Dad, why would Dean Brown act deferential towards someone?
01:07:16Warren Brown deferential?
01:07:17I find that hard to imagine.
01:07:20He comes from old money.
01:07:21He's one of the most respected professors.
01:07:23He's worked with some of the most influential politicians
01:07:26and CEOs in the country.
01:07:28In this city, they defer to him, not the other way around.
01:07:33Weird.
01:07:34I definitely watched him totally fawn all over some of the time.
01:07:38What?
01:07:38Who was that?
01:07:39Warren Brown says it's time for you to wait.
01:07:41The President will wait for him.
01:07:43I find it hard to even earn that level of respect from him.
01:07:47Wow.
01:07:47So...
01:07:48Dean Brown's really that big of a deal?
01:07:51So Silas can't be just some part-time coach.
01:07:55I need to tell Elaine.
01:08:01Oh, Elaine, you're here.
01:08:04Tristan, what are you doing here?
01:08:06Well, you know, Uncle Mark, he had me lead the Hudson Project.
01:08:10We're on point.
01:08:11Really do some logistical work and managerial stuff.
01:08:14The board gets weekly updates.
01:08:16You don't need to meet privately with me to discuss things.
01:08:19Elaine, don't be so rude.
01:08:22This project has a lot of details.
01:08:24It's a big deal for us.
01:08:26Please, talk with Tristan.
01:08:28There's nothing to talk about.
01:08:30Elaine, what are you talking about?
01:08:32No, Tristan, please.
01:08:34Don't take this personally.
01:08:36She's been on edge since the divorce.
01:08:38She didn't mean it.
01:08:40Right, Elaine?
01:08:41I will present the project updates that the next board meeting is planned.
01:08:46Tristan, it's Lane.
01:08:49You realize I came back from London for you, right?
01:08:52And now what?
01:08:53Since you're divorced, you can't give me a chance.
01:08:56Elaine, don't be rude.
01:08:57This is me being polite.
01:08:59I have no interest in rehashing the past.
01:09:02So stop coming around to see me.
01:09:06Unbelievable.
01:09:07I mean, I get you the Hudson Yard project, and what?
01:09:10This is how you pay me back right now?
01:09:11Really?
01:09:12Nice try, Tristan.
01:09:13My people looked into Hudson Yards, and it was set aside for us long before your help.
01:09:20I mean, you're just a Nepo baby.
01:09:22You have zero influence over a deal this major.
01:09:26Mr. Whitmar already planned to give us the project?
01:09:29Why?
01:09:31Maybe he saw potential in us?
01:09:33Whatever the case, it has nothing to do with Tristan.
01:09:36So are you gonna leave, or do I need to show you the door?
01:09:40You'll regret this, Elaine.
01:09:48Elaine, you've been so tense lately.
01:09:51Is this about Silas?
01:09:52Of course not.
01:09:53I'm just sick of men proving that they are cut from the same disappointing cloth.
01:09:59What?
01:09:59What did I do?
01:10:02Silas, you wasted your chance.
01:10:05Don't come crawling to me when you finally realize it.
01:10:16What are you doing here, Silas?
01:10:18What?
01:10:19You've come to beg for your spot back at the Sterling house?
01:10:23Well, I hate to break it to you, but you're not welcome here anymore.
01:10:26What's the matter, Tristan?
01:10:27The Sterlings kick you out?
01:10:28Or maybe I just don't like you.
01:10:31Man, kids are these days.
01:10:33Got no respect.
01:10:33Don't call me kid.
01:10:35You asshole.
01:10:37I mean, if you hadn't messed up my dinner at the Japanese restaurant, I would be fucking
01:10:42Elaine by now.
01:10:49Fucking hit me.
01:10:51Break his legs.
01:10:53Okay, Mr. Whiphog.
01:10:54Hey, careful there, Chugs.
01:10:56What you do right now, you can't undo.
01:10:58Big talk coming from a guy who was kicked on his ass to the street by the Sterlings.
01:11:03Now what the fuck are you guys waiting for?
01:11:05Get him!
01:11:17Wow, that's pretty impressive.
01:11:20I see where you get your attitude, but if you have forgotten, you fucked with the Whitmores.
01:11:24That's practically a death sentence.
01:11:27You're gonna keep talking or you can actually do something.
01:11:29You listen to me.
01:11:31The Whitmores, we're meeting with a very important VIP tonight.
01:11:34Get on your knees and beg for my forgiveness, and I might just let this slide.
01:11:39And what if I told you that very important guest?
01:11:42It's me.
01:11:45I mean, you're kidding me, right?
01:11:47I mean, you're just a leech that suckles from the Sterlings.
01:11:51You think a VIP like you who mooches off women, is that important?
01:11:56Hey, I'm here.
01:11:58Pick me up.
01:11:59Yes, sir.
01:11:59I'm on my way.
01:12:01The game's a point.
01:12:02Let's go.
01:12:04Would you stop with this game?
01:12:06I mean, who are you really trying to fool?
01:12:14Uncle Mark, what are you doing here?
01:12:20Our utmost respect, Divine One.
01:12:26Mr. Lancaster is more than sufficient.
01:12:29As you wish, Mr. Lancaster.
01:12:31I can't be serious.
01:12:32I mean, he's just a freeloader for the Sterlings.
01:12:35Shut up!
01:12:36I am not in a giving vain today.
01:12:39Mr. Lancaster only humbled himself living with that family so he could honor Charles Sterling's dying wish.
01:12:46I mean, he's too young to be the VIP.
01:12:48I mean, he's too young to be the VIP.
01:12:48Mr. Lancaster is immortal.
01:12:50He's looked exactly the same for over 2,000 years.
01:12:54You listen up.
01:12:5460 years ago, when he arrived, Mr. Lancaster made New York's most powerful families and corporations alive.
01:13:03Every one of their leaders swore loyalty to him willingly.
01:13:10You're kidding, right?
01:13:11Yet it is.
01:13:12Now, get on your knees and apologize to Mr. Lancaster.
01:13:17Mr. Lancaster, I am so sorry.
01:13:19I had no idea it was you.
01:13:21Please find it in your...
01:13:26I apologize for two reasons.
01:13:28One, I'm leaving New York.
01:13:29I went to the world again and I'll be back for a few decades.
01:13:33When you return, we will be here.
01:13:35The Whitmore loyalty is yours today, tomorrow, and from every generation after us.
01:13:40Second, the Sterling.
01:13:44Sir, don't worry.
01:13:45I myself will make sure that the Sterlings are well taken care of in your absence.
01:13:49No.
01:13:50Charles Sterling made a Sterling company 50 years ago.
01:13:54Williams now fit to leave.
01:13:55Elaine is...
01:13:56Sarrigan.
01:13:57She's too young.
01:13:58The Sterlings will fail.
01:14:00You're right.
01:14:01As always.
01:14:03What do you need from us?
01:14:05Treat the Sterling Group like any other company from here on out.
01:14:08No special treatment, no exceptions.
01:14:12Understood.
01:14:20Miss Sterling, Whitmore just froze the Hudson Yards project.
01:14:22They're questioning the company's qualifications and want to audit the entire project proposal.
01:14:27What?
01:14:28Our vendors are freaking out.
01:14:30Some are demanding payment in advance?
01:14:31What should we do?
01:14:33Just try to reassure them.
01:14:36I'll sort this out when I get in.
01:14:38Damn it.
01:14:39This was never a part of the deal.
01:14:41Do we have the audit file they're asking for?
01:14:43No.
01:14:44Whitmore's benchmarks are sky high.
01:14:46Sterling can't deliver and honestly I can't even think of a company in New York that could.
01:14:51What the hell is wrong with the Whitmore's?
01:14:53Why mess with us?
01:14:54Wait.
01:14:55This has to be Tristan.
01:14:57You pissed him off and he's stormed out.
01:14:59This has to be payment.
01:15:00I don't think it's him.
01:15:02Who else could it be?
01:15:03Just call him and apologize.
01:15:06This business deal means everything for us.
01:15:10If Tristan really is trying to get back at us, do you actually think that apologizing would fix anything?
01:15:15Marry him.
01:15:17Marry him.
01:15:18He's into you and this is a perfect match for our families.
01:15:21What on earth are you talking about?
01:15:30You following me?
01:15:31Look, Uncle Mark, he told me to stick by you in case you need anything, so...
01:15:35Yeah.
01:15:36He was hoping by you hanging around you'll, uh, lend me up.
01:15:39You don't miss a thing, do you, Mr. Lancaster?
01:15:42For Mark's sake.
01:15:43Sure.
01:15:44I'm gonna go for one more stroll around New York before I leave with the arrangements.
01:15:48Okay, absolutely Mr. Lancaster. I'll take care of all of it.
01:15:57Mr. Lancaster, can I get you some water?
01:15:58Okay, that's fine, but...
01:16:02What?
01:16:04What the...
01:16:06I'm sorry.
01:16:07I'll go back.
01:16:09Tristan, what the hell?
01:16:10Your nose is so far up this loser's ass right now.
01:16:13You okay?
01:16:19What is wrong with you?
01:16:21You hit Gabriel over Silas?
01:16:24He kept you apart from Elaine for three years.
01:16:27What?
01:16:29Don't you two ever disrespect Mr. Lancaster again, okay?
01:16:34Otherwise we are done, completely.
01:16:35What the hell? Does he have something on you or something?
01:16:39No, my respect for him is genuine.
01:16:41And here's a little piece of advice for you two.
01:16:42Mr. Lancaster's influence is far beyond anything you could ever imagine.
01:16:46You two better start showing him some respect, and real soon.
01:16:49Is Silas someone important?
01:16:52I don't know. It's the way that Tristan is acting, maybe?
01:16:56We better just apologize to him and get out of here, okay?
01:17:00Silas!
01:17:01Mr. Lancaster, we are very sorry we never meant any disrespect.
01:17:06Don't worry about it. You guys were never worth it.
01:17:08Right. Well, that's good, I guess.
01:17:16It's the Sterlings.
01:17:19Tristan, honey. Elaine has something very important to say to you.
01:17:23Are you free right now? Maybe you could come over and have a chat.
01:17:26Sir, the Sterlings, they want to meet you. Should I turn them down?
01:17:30Let them come.
01:17:31You guys are welcome to come.
01:17:35I came as soon as I got your call. What's going on?
01:17:38We need to do a compliant audit for Hudson Yards, but we don't have the infrastructure set up yet.
01:17:44Your dad's an expert in that area. Is there any way you could help us?
01:17:48My dad's at a conference in Beijing, but I know someone who can.
01:17:52Please don't say Tristan.
01:17:53I was actually talking about Silas.
01:17:55Okay. I know I might sound crazy, but please just hear me out.
01:18:00Silas is actually a mythical being who has been alive for a long longer than we thought, originally.
01:18:25And it's a lot, I know.
01:18:28How could Silas possibly have anything to do with this? He's a complete nobody.
01:18:33I know it might be hard for you to believe, but Silas actually has a lot more power than you
01:18:38realize.
01:18:39So you know that I would never lie to you.
01:18:43Enough of this nonsense.
01:18:44Kristen's waiting.
01:18:46Elaine, let's go.
01:18:52Rebecca?
01:18:54Gabriel, what are you guys doing here?
01:18:55We just bumped into each other.
01:19:00Kristen, dear. You look more handsome every time I see you.
01:19:03Enough with the flattery, Miss Sterling. What are you really after?
01:19:06The Hudson Yards project seems to be put on hold, and we wondered if you could talk to your uncle.
01:19:12You know, smooth things over.
01:19:14Sorry, but I have no say in that.
01:19:16See? He has nothing to do with it.
01:19:18If you really want to talk to whoever calls the shots, you're gonna have to speak to Mr. Lancaster himself.
01:19:24Mr. Lancaster?
01:19:26You mean Silas?
01:19:27Don't be ridiculous, Tristan. He doesn't have that kind of power.
01:19:31I mean, you guys only got the project because he was doing a favor for my Uncle Mark.
01:19:36Tristan, are you messing with me?
01:19:37Come on, everyone knows that you and Silas hate each other.
01:19:40You really expect me to believe a word of this?
01:19:42Would you believe it if I said it myself?
01:19:46Mr. Whitmore, how can we fix this Hudson Yards project?
01:19:50Mr. Whitmore, the Sterling Group might not have as much influence, but we signed a contract.
01:19:56You can't just push us around.
01:19:58Why do you think I gave you that contract in the first place?
01:20:01Sterling Group clearly didn't meet the qualification.
01:20:03It was a favor to Mr. Lancaster.
01:20:06Since he's no longer tied to your family, well, business is business.
01:20:10My God. So was Silas all along.
01:20:13What are we supposed to do now?
01:20:15I told you Elaine Silas was a good man, but no.
01:20:17Just had to go and divorce him.
01:20:19Silas!
01:20:20Come out!
01:20:21I know you're here!
01:20:31Don't y'all teach you a lesson, Sil?
01:20:34What'd you learn?
01:20:36What, so that's what this is about?
01:20:38You wanted to see me break down?
01:20:40Beg for your forgiveness?
01:20:42Oh, well, guess what?
01:20:44That is never gonna happen.
01:20:47Look, I don't know how you got to the Whitmores, but Sterling Group will be just fine without Hudson Yards.
01:20:52We have plenty of other deals lined up.
01:20:54The truth is right in front of you. You're just choosing not to believe it.
01:20:57How do you explain the two harbor shipping licenses I secured last week?
01:21:02Massive shipments worth billions moving in and out every day.
01:21:06You're telling me that's because of you too?
01:21:13Hey, the Sterling shipping license.
01:21:16Dancing.
01:21:17Bookports.
01:21:19Yeah, immediately.
01:21:20Thanks so much.
01:21:21We're still keeping up this little act, Silas?
01:21:25You really think that if you just snap your fingers you can shut us down?
01:21:29Any second now.
01:21:30What?
01:21:38Miss Sterling, something's wrong.
01:21:40We just heard from the Port Authority.
01:21:41They're suspending both of our shipping licenses.
01:21:43What?
01:21:44Why is this happening to me?
01:21:46I worked so hard for all of this.
01:21:49It's over.
01:21:50I've lost everything.
01:21:54Elaine, don't say that.
01:21:56Silas is still here.
01:21:57You can fix this.
01:21:59So those contracts?
01:22:00All the partnerships, they were all because of you?
01:22:04You believe me now?
01:22:05All this time you were helping us from behind the scenes.
01:22:10Everything we have is because of you.
01:22:13God, I paraded around.
01:22:16Proud.
01:22:17Arrogant.
01:22:18Showing off in front of you like a complete fool.
01:22:20You put up with three years of that.
01:22:22God, you must have hated every minute of it.
01:22:26Doesn't matter now.
01:22:27I just do what a husband should do.
01:22:29Tell what you're always asked.
01:22:30That's all.
01:22:32I'm so sorry.
01:22:33Silas.
01:22:35I was terrible to you.
01:22:37I pushed you away.
01:22:39I blamed you for everything.
01:22:40As soon as we got divorced, I regretted it immediately.
01:22:44And I searched everywhere for you.
01:22:47But when I finally found you and had the chance to tell you,
01:22:50I let my pride get in the way.
01:22:53And I destroyed us all over again.
01:22:55I am so sorry.
01:22:57So sorry.
01:22:59I'm sorry.
01:23:01It's true.
01:23:02Elaine's been miserable since the divorce.
01:23:04Yeah, totally.
01:23:05She tried to come back, but...
01:23:06I know.
01:23:08Silas used to wait here for me after work.
01:23:15I know you're sorry, and I accept your apology.
01:23:18And if you want, I can get Sterling Group back on track.
01:23:22I want to rebuild Sterling on my own.
01:23:24I just have one last question for you.
01:23:27Silas.
01:23:29These three years, you never really loved me.
01:23:33That your kindness and your patience, it was just pity, wasn't it?
01:23:38I'm sorry.
01:23:40Hey, Karen.
01:23:42We were never really equals.
01:23:44But I'm gonna change that, step by step, on my own.
01:23:48Maybe one day, you'll finally respect me.
01:23:51I'm looking forward to it.
01:23:57I guess she really has changed.
01:24:01Yeah.
01:24:02She really has.
01:24:04So, Coach, what's next for you?
01:24:06I don't know.
01:24:07I'll suddenly leave New York.
01:24:09To the world.
01:24:10We're back in a few years, though.
01:24:12So, it's changed.
01:24:13Take it easy, Fiona.
01:24:17Damn, Fiona, you are so into him.
01:24:19I am not.
01:24:20I don't...
01:24:21Please, we're not blind.
01:24:22Look, everyone deserves a chance at happiness.
01:24:25So, what are you waiting for?
01:24:28Silas, wait.
01:24:30Take me with you.
01:24:31I'm going.
01:24:33I'm going.
01:24:34I'm going to try him.
01:24:36Okay, let's go.
01:24:37I'm going to try.
01:24:37You
