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, death, 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.
00:01:12A few years have been buying a blink, huh?
00:01:15I forgot how much time passed.
00:01:17Time catches up to everyone, except you.
00:01:21So, who are you these days, my friend?
00:01:24Keepin' it easy. Part-time swim coach.
00:01:31So, mate.
00:01:35You're done.
00:01:36Tell me, Charles, now.
00:01:38What is it you want from me?
00:01:42You can always see right through me.
00:01:46After following you for 50 years, consider this my last request.
00:01:52After I'm gone, please take care of my family for the next three years.
00:02:03Oh, dear, Lord.
00:02:05For three years, after that, the students are on their own.
00:02:08Thank you, Mr. Lancaster.
00:02:10Of course.
00:02:11What do you tell me, Charles? How do you expect me to fit in with them?
00:02:13Don't worry.
00:02:15I'm afraid.
00:02:20What's going on? Are you okay?
00:02:22Elaine, I need you to...
00:02:24I want to introduce you to somebody.
00:02:26This is Silas Lancaster.
00:02:28And, um, starting tonight, he's your husband.
00:02:34Grandpa, 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, what the hell are you talking about?
00:02:42Who is this man?
00:02:43Mr. Lancaster is a respected college swimming coach,
00:02:47and 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.
00:02:57If 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.
00:03:12Do as your grandfather asks.
00:03:14He knows what's best.
00:03:15She's right, sweetheart.
00:03:17I'll arrange a marriage score.
00:03:19Don't worry, Dad.
00:03:21I'll wake it up.
00:03:28All right, Grandpa.
00:03:30I'll marry him.
00:03:33It's the only way to make sure Mr. Lancaster
00:03:35watches over my family and our legacy
00:03:38for the next three years.
00:03:56We're here to put the Sterling facility out of condition for good.
00:04:02Understand?
00:04:03Get out of the way, boss.
00:04:04Good. Let's go.
00:04:06Let's go.
00:04:09Let's go.
00:04:10Let's go.
00:04:10Let's go.
00:04:14Get the fuck out of here.
00:04:16Get on over here.
00:04:36He's a fucking monster.
00:04:39Run.
00:04:58Where the hell are you?
00:04:59Uh, Sterling factory in Jersey.
00:05:01Why?
00:05:01What are you even doing now?
00:05:04Okay, never mind.
00:05:05Get to Club Pulse in Soho.
00:05:07We've got 10 minutes.
00:05:1010 minutes.
00:05:11We don't get in cabin time.
00:05:13Not my problem.
00:05:14Figure it out.
00:05:18Well?
00:05:19What did the old ball and chain say?
00:05:22He said, sure.
00:05:23Of course.
00:05:25Nice.
00:05:26All right.
00:05:27Game on.
00:05:2810 minutes.
00:05:29Mr. Wifey doesn't show.
00:05:31Then you're buying drinks.
00:05:33If he does, we are.
00:05:35Well, then I hope you brought your black card.
00:05:40Aline, come on.
00:05:41Silas is your husband.
00:05:43Do you think you're being a bit harsh?
00:05:45He brought it on himself.
00:05:47Since Grandpa died three years ago, I have given him so many chances to walk away, but he refuses to
00:05:53divorce me.
00:05:54So fine.
00:05:55If he wants to stay that badly, he can stay.
00:05:58It's like having my own personal lap dog.
00:06:01Honestly, even calling him that is generous.
00:06:04He teaches swim lessons.
00:06:06Perfect.
00:06:09He actually approaches a D1 program.
00:06:11They're going to be going to Nashville.
00:06:13The point is, you are Elaine Sterling, heirs to the Sterling Empire.
00:06:17You're running the thing.
00:06:20Holy shit.
00:06:21Tristan is coming back into town in three days.
00:06:26Your Prince Charming is coming home.
00:06:29I bet you're excited.
00:06:30Come on.
00:06:31Gabriel, I'm married.
00:06:33You guys were the it couple in college.
00:06:36After your grandpa forced you to marry Silas, his family shipped him off so he could run the Italian office.
00:06:41But now that he's back, you should dump your useless stray mutt of a husband.
00:06:49Ten seconds and still no sign of old yeller.
00:06:56Guess you're losing this one.
00:07:03Oh, Gabriel.
00:07:11Damn, Elaine.
00:07:12You really trained him well.
00:07:16You called?
00:07:17Everything okay?
00:07:18Are you blind?
00:07:20I'm perfectly fine.
00:07:22Well, you called, so what's up?
00:07:26If you are that desperate to come to my rescue, my shoes are dirty.
00:07:31Clean them.
00:07:34What, are you too good for that?
00:07:36I mean, if you can't handle something as simple as this, how good are you to me anyway, Silas?
00:07:46Please, take care of my family for the next three years.
00:07:57Oh, come on.
00:07:59Elaine and I were just playing a little game called Dog Whistle.
00:08:05We bet that no matter where you were, if she called you, you would show up straight away like a
00:08:10good boy.
00:08:11I gotta say, I gotta say, you didn't disappoint us.
00:08:14Seriously, there's so much traffic right now.
00:08:16How'd you get here?
00:08:17You have wings or something?
00:08:25You called me.
00:08:27I thought you were in trouble.
00:08:28About years behind my back, calling me a dumb chud to your friends.
00:08:31That's right.
00:08:33Okay.
00:08:34Wait, are you, like, pissed or something?
00:08:37Oh, because I...
00:08:40I'm just getting started.
00:08:56Well, if you hate it that much, then you can leave.
00:08:59I am not stopping you.
00:09:00That!
00:09:01I don't even pay you enough to live comfortably for the rest of your life.
00:09:05You know, if you have any ounce of pride left in your body, take the deal and get the hell
00:09:13out of my life.
00:09:15If I haven't promised your grandfather I'd take care of your family for three years, I'd have walked away a
00:09:21long time ago.
00:09:22Whatever.
00:09:23Only three days left.
00:09:25The time's up and the Sterlings will never see me again.
00:09:27Hey, freeloader.
00:09:29Elaine is talking to you.
00:09:30Or do you need her permission to speak, too?
00:09:39It's getting late.
00:09:41We'll meet in tomorrow.
00:09:42Come on, let me, uh...
00:09:44Let me drive you home.
00:09:47Man.
00:09:48Elaine just humiliated you in front of everyone.
00:09:51And you're still willing to be her personal Uber?
00:09:55Talk about desperate.
00:09:57I guess that's the secret to being a kept man.
00:09:59No shame.
00:10:00No spine.
00:10:03Thanks.
00:10:04But I'll get home myself.
00:10:14Elaine didn't mean to humiliate you.
00:10:16She's just...
00:10:17She's got a temper.
00:10:18That's all.
00:10:19Try not to take it to heart.
00:10:23Didn't mean to humiliate me.
00:10:26Whatever.
00:10:27Three more days.
00:10:28And none of this will matter.
00:10:31He's a monster.
00:10:34Good thing he didn't come after us.
00:10:35We'd all be dead for sure.
00:10:37That guy.
00:10:38No.
00:10:38That thing.
00:10:39He's a human.
00:10:40He's a fucking demon.
00:10:42It makes sense.
00:10:43Charles Starr's no gun.
00:10:44Son's useless.
00:10:46The gun's are spoiled.
00:10:47But yet they still own the fucking Rose Medic's cabinet.
00:10:51I guess now we know why.
00:10:53They've got some being women going to the fucking Empire.
00:10:57Just get the hell out of the fucking New York tonight.
00:10:59I'm not running to the fucking creep ever again.
00:11:04You're back.
00:11:06Come sit down.
00:11:14Where the hell have you been?
00:11:16It's already late and dinner's not even ready.
00:11:18Did you want us to starve?
00:11:21I was out picking up Elaine.
00:11:22And I have my own things to do.
00:11:24If you guys are hungry, you can have the maid pick you up something.
00:11:27You've got to wait for me.
00:11:29Excuse me.
00:11:30We let you live here.
00:11:32Eat our food.
00:11:33And now you don't even want to cook?
00:11:35You really are ungrateful.
00:11:37You know that?
00:11:38You can't stand the maid's cooking.
00:11:40So be useful for once.
00:11:43And start getting dinner ready, Silas.
00:11:49What if I don't?
00:11:50What if one day I don't come back?
00:11:52Would you all just sit at the table?
00:11:54Waiting to be fed?
00:11:58Don't come back?
00:12:00What is that supposed to mean?
00:12:03What's that supposed to mean?
00:12:04Are you so tired of cooking that you're trying to pick a fight with me, Silas?
00:12:10Forget about it.
00:12:13Well, then get in there and start cooking.
00:12:17Don't make me say it twice.
00:12:24Oh, Elaine, you have that meeting with Mr. Whitmore tomorrow.
00:12:28What are the odds that you land that Hudson Yards deal?
00:12:32We're still a few steps behind our competitors.
00:12:35But I'll do everything I can.
00:12:38You need to land this deal, sweetheart.
00:12:41The business depends on it.
00:12:45Your father just cares about golf.
00:12:48Silas is completely useless.
00:12:51You're all we've got.
00:12:53I know, Mom.
00:12:55Tristan's back in town, you know.
00:12:58And you have that meeting with his uncle tomorrow?
00:13:00Perfect timing.
00:13:02Give me my call.
00:13:03I know you two are so into each other in school.
00:13:07I'm sure he'd help.
00:13:14You need to land this deal, sweetheart.
00:13:17The business depends on it.
00:13:29Can I sleep?
00:13:30If I'm keeping you up, you can always take the couch.
00:13:33Don't worry about Hudson Yards.
00:13:35All right?
00:13:36Don't overthink it.
00:13:38Yeah, like you know anything about business?
00:13:41It's not as simple as frying an egg.
00:13:59Hello?
00:14:00You're right.
00:14:01I'm outside.
00:14:18I couldn't wait to see you.
00:14:20It's been too long.
00:14:25Wait, I thought you weren't coming back for another three days.
00:14:29Oh.
00:14:30I mean, that's what I told everyone, but of course, you're not everyone.
00:14:34I couldn't go another day without seeing you.
00:14:38Tristan, I'm sorry, but I'm married.
00:14:42I know.
00:14:43I know.
00:14:43It's, uh, Silas.
00:14:46Who's this stray dog that you picked up?
00:14:48Now that I'm back, you can cancel this joke wedding and, you know, like, will you marry me?
00:14:55Uh, Tristan, I'm glad that you're back, but this is too much.
00:15:00It's too soon.
00:15:04Of course, it's, uh, I'm sorry.
00:15:06I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable.
00:15:08Look, you can take your time and honestly just seeing you tonight, I mean, that was enough for me.
00:15:14Good night.
00:15:17Tristan.
00:15:20Yeah?
00:15:20I have a meeting with your Uncle Mark tomorrow about the Hudson Yards Project.
00:15:25Is there any chance you can put in a good word for me?
00:15:29Help me land the deal?
00:15:30I can help you, Evan.
00:15:31No worries.
00:15:33Tristan, if I can pull this deal off, I will owe you.
00:15:36Big time.
00:15:37Look, look, look.
00:15:38I can handle it, okay?
00:15:39It just, it's freezing cold out here and I really don't want you to catch a cold.
00:15:43So, you should probably go back inside.
00:15:45I'll talk to you tomorrow.
00:15:48Hey.
00:16:03Can't sleep.
00:16:04Lots of hot tea might help.
00:16:08Wait.
00:16:09Are you really not going to ask where I was just now?
00:16:13Can you tell me if I did?
00:16:14You know, since we got married, you've done everything for me.
00:16:19Never had a bad temper, never complained.
00:16:23You're just a good man.
00:16:25Kind and gentle.
00:16:27But I need you to understand something.
00:16:30Even if you spent another decade by my side, nothing is ever going to happen between us.
00:16:37Kind and gentle.
00:16:39It's just another way of saying weak.
00:16:41Get some rest.
00:16:43It's late.
00:16:52Hello?
00:16:53Hello?
00:16:53Hi, Uncle Mark.
00:16:54I know it's late, but...
00:16:56I need a favor.
00:16:57Hudson Yards.
00:16:59Look, I'm going to stop you right there.
00:17:01That deal is done.
00:17:03We're going with a company that was strongly recommended by our biggest investor.
00:17:07Stay out of it.
00:17:08Got it?
00:17:24Mr. Whitmore, I know that Sterling Group isn't the most obvious choice for the Hudson Yards project.
00:17:31But if you give us a shot, I will personally oversee every detail, and I promise you we will exceed
00:17:38your expectations.
00:17:43Don't worry, Ms. Sterling.
00:17:46Hudson Yards is yours.
00:17:51Contract's already drawn up.
00:17:52Just sign it, and we're good to go.
00:17:54Mr. Whitmore, you don't even want to look at our proposal?
00:17:57Don't need to.
00:17:59Someone I trust vouched for Sterling Group personally.
00:18:02I have complete faith.
00:18:05Here.
00:18:08Who will exactly vouch for us?
00:18:12Let's just say it's someone who is, uh, very close to you.
00:18:18It had to be Tristan.
00:18:20It had to be Tristan.
00:18:22Thank you, Mr. Whitmore.
00:18:24We will not let you down.
00:18:25I am sure you won't.
00:18:36Hey.
00:18:37Sir, I followed your instructions to the letter, Mr. Lancaster.
00:18:41Mrs. Sterling, she just signed the contract.
00:18:44Great.
00:18:45I'll get big time, Mark.
00:18:46Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:18:48I'm, I'm happy that I was able to help.
00:18:50If there's anything else you need, just say the word.
00:18:56Hey, look, I'm so sorry.
00:18:57Tristan, we got the Hudson Yards project.
00:18:59It is all thanks to you.
00:19:01You're a lifesaver.
00:19:03Wait, Uncle Mark said that the project had already been assigned.
00:19:07Did he change his mind to do me a favor?
00:19:09Yeah, no big deal.
00:19:11I mean, as long as you're happy, that's, that's all that matters.
00:19:14Um, can I get you lunch?
00:19:16No.
00:19:16After everything you've done, I owe you this one.
00:19:29Oh, my cheeks feel hot.
00:19:31And I think I've had too much.
00:19:34Really, I mean, I think you look gorgeous.
00:19:36I mean, as always.
00:19:38You know, I remember when we were in college.
00:19:41Everyone used to say that we were so good together.
00:19:44I think if I'd never left for London, then we would have even had kids or something.
00:19:50Three years is long enough to change everything.
00:19:59Why didn't you tell me from the contract you left?
00:20:02I've been waiting here for six, seven hours.
00:20:06I'm having lunch with a friend, so you can just go, okay?
00:20:11Are you drinking?
00:20:12God, leave the prophet already?
00:20:14I am hanging out.
00:20:16Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:20:17This must be Silas, right?
00:20:20Yeah, I'm Tristan Whitmore.
00:20:22Elaine's ex-boyfriend.
00:20:24Elaine's ex?
00:20:26You know, I know that I left and she had to settle for someone else, but now that I'm back,
00:20:32we should probably just walk away.
00:20:34Before things get ugly, for example.
00:20:36Okay.
00:20:37Silas, don't read into this.
00:20:38I'm treating Tristan to lunch because he helped me land the Hudson Yards deal.
00:20:44We had a little bit too much to drink.
00:20:46I'll be home soon.
00:20:50You crossed the line, Tristan.
00:20:52Okay, look.
00:20:53I'm sorry, right?
00:20:55But I hate seeing you with that guy when you could be with me.
00:20:58I mean, you're way out of this league.
00:21:00Come on.
00:21:01Forget it.
00:21:02I should go.
00:21:03I'm just going to get an oop.
00:21:04Elaine, please.
00:21:04Look, I got all this wonderful sushi, and we have this wonderful sake.
00:21:08Let's at least have one last cheers, yeah?
00:21:11One more drink, okay?
00:21:12And then we're going to toast it.
00:21:17Sound good?
00:21:18Yeah.
00:21:19Cheers.
00:21:21To us.
00:21:24And to our past.
00:21:34I should go.
00:21:36It's...
00:21:36It's good.
00:21:37Wait, hey, hey.
00:21:39Hey, wait.
00:21:41Hey, you okay?
00:21:42I think I drank too much.
00:21:44Okay, go, go.
00:21:45This is last night.
00:21:46Yeah?
00:21:47Yeah.
00:21:54The lady, you're even more beautiful than I remember.
00:21:58Never stopped wanting you.
00:22:00No.
00:22:00Tristan, stop.
00:22:01I'm married.
00:22:05I can't resist you.
00:22:08Tristan, stop.
00:22:09Stop!
00:22:10I want to be with you. Yeah? I want to be with you. I want us to be together.
00:22:15Don't. Silas. Together. Our families will be the most powerful in the city.
00:22:20No, don't. No.
00:22:32Silas?
00:22:33He actually fights?
00:22:36Hey! No! Silas! Silas, stop!
00:22:39I'll leave him alone.
00:22:41So, you're Silas, huh? The loser who has been leeching off of her for years?
00:22:46Well, you know, now that you hit me, I'm finished.
00:22:53Silas, apologize to Tristan now.
00:22:58Silas, apologize to Tristan now.
00:23:01He fought himself on top of you. He will meet up to apologize.
00:23:04Apologize.
00:23:12I'm sorry.
00:23:17Good boy.
00:23:18You know, I'm going to slide this back.
00:23:22Just for Lane's sake.
00:23:25Hey, look.
00:23:27I'm so sorry about earlier.
00:23:28I was drunk, okay?
00:23:29It was my mistake. I didn't hurt you right.
00:23:31Look, I'm sorry. It was my fault.
00:23:32It was my fault.
00:23:33Okay, it's fine.
00:23:35Look, it's late. We should just go.
00:23:37We'll talk later, right?
00:23:40Can I talk to you later?
00:23:56Elaine, how did it go with Mr. Whitmore?
00:23:59Did you get the Hudson Yards project?
00:24:01Judging by that look, I'm guessing not.
00:24:07What?
00:24:08What?
00:24:11Is that fast?
00:24:13It seems like this usually takes weeks to negotiate.
00:24:16Well, Tristan talked to his uncle.
00:24:20He really went out of his way to vouch for us.
00:24:22Of course, Tristan.
00:24:25There's one person who knows how to get things done.
00:24:29Unlike some people who just mooch off others and never do anything useful, ever.
00:24:36You think Tristan got you Hudson Yards?
00:24:45So if it wasn't Tristan, then who was it?
00:24:48You?
00:24:52Go make us dinner.
00:24:53Can't you see that we're starving?
00:25:08I get why you're upset.
00:25:10But I appreciate you keeping your cool back at the restaurant.
00:25:14If you'd hit Tristan, things would have gotten a lot worse.
00:25:16You're thanking me for not hitting him.
00:25:18He'll try to rape you, but since you think he got you the deal, you're gonna...
00:25:22Let's slide.
00:25:24You're overreacting.
00:25:25Tristan was drunk.
00:25:26He didn't mean it.
00:25:29And...
00:25:29You have no idea how important this deal is for Sterling Group.
00:25:35Tristan was the only one who could help.
00:25:37Just...
00:25:38Just try to understand, okay?
00:25:40You think Tristan Whitmore got you the deal?
00:25:43Tristan might be a Whitmore, but...
00:25:46His uncle sure as hell did not give him a seven-figure contract because his nephew asked
00:25:50to isolate him.
00:25:50Yeah.
00:25:52Okay.
00:25:53Well, then who vouched for us?
00:25:55I don't know.
00:25:56Took anybody.
00:25:57But it sure as hell was a Tristan Whitmore.
00:26:01Look, you don't need to be jealous of Tristan.
00:26:05We're married, for God's sake.
00:26:07I'd never cross that line.
00:26:09Look, Elena, you'd grow up.
00:26:10Your grandfather started this company for nothing.
00:26:12Don't be the one to ruin his legs.
00:26:21Ruin it?
00:26:22Are you kidding me?
00:26:23I am the reason that Sterling Group is thriving.
00:26:26You, on the other hand, are just a house husband living off of my family.
00:26:32But now you think that you can lecture me?
00:26:36You've really forgotten your place, haven't you?
00:26:39I mean, I protected you too much.
00:26:42Because you are still just a spoiled princess who never had a face reality.
00:26:48Call me spoiled all you want.
00:26:50But you protect me.
00:26:52Really?
00:26:55Driving me around, cooking, driving, waiting around for me?
00:26:59That is not protection.
00:27:01That's pathetic.
00:27:03Tomorrow, my promise to you, Grandfather Ediths,
00:27:06the time you finally learned the truth.
00:27:09Look, I've been holding your family together for three years now.
00:27:12You think Sterling Group's doing well because of you?
00:27:14No.
00:27:15Without me, you guys would have gone bankrupt a long time ago.
00:27:23How I guess Tristan really got under your skin, huh?
00:27:27You're actually saying that Sterling Group would fall apart without you.
00:27:32I'm just telling you the truth.
00:27:34Watch your tone with Elaine or I'll throw you out of this house.
00:27:39Just kick him out.
00:27:40I mean, a man who lives off his wife has no room to mouth off.
00:27:43Mom, Dad, please.
00:27:45Silas was just upset.
00:27:48Don't defend him, dear.
00:27:50You fulfilled your grandpa's last wish.
00:27:53Been married for three years now.
00:27:55It's time you file for divorce.
00:27:58Exactly.
00:27:59It's time for you to dump this list.
00:28:01All right, Silas, listen.
00:28:04You crossed a line.
00:28:06What?
00:28:08I am generous enough to give you another chance.
00:28:12Say you're sorry.
00:28:14And we'll forget this happened.
00:28:18You want me to apologize?
00:28:21Yes.
00:28:22What, do you have a problem with that?
00:28:24You heard her.
00:28:26Apologize.
00:28:27Now.
00:28:30I'm losing my patience here, Silas.
00:28:33This is your last chance.
00:28:38And if I don't?
00:28:40Then we're done.
00:28:41You're out of the Sterling family for good.
00:28:45You hear that?
00:28:46If you don't apologize, you're out.
00:28:49So get to it.
00:28:55Then we're done.
00:28:56Let's get a divorce.
00:28:58What?
00:29:01What did you just say?
00:29:04Marriage court is closed by now, but we'll go tomorrow morning.
00:29:07Get the papers signed.
00:29:11Could I hear that right?
00:29:13Silas wants to divorce you?
00:29:16Oh, thank God.
00:29:19You could do so much better than him, sweetheart.
00:29:21But what if Silas changes his mind?
00:29:24We know how obsessed he is with Elaine.
00:29:26And we'll drag him to court ourselves.
00:29:28This divorce is happening tomorrow.
00:29:30Don't forget.
00:29:31It was his idea.
00:29:33Even if he changes his mind, I'm not forgiving him this time.
00:29:38Let's forget that loser.
00:29:40Well, if no one's cooking, looks like we're going out.
00:29:43Why don't you choose?
00:29:44I'm not hungry.
00:29:46You guys go ahead.
00:29:47I'm not hungry.
00:30:13Honey?
00:30:15What now?
00:30:18What?
00:30:20Silas?
00:30:22Had to be.
00:30:23We were out.
00:30:24He was the only one here.
00:30:26I told you he was bluffing.
00:30:27If he really wanted a divorce, he wouldn't go around cleaning like some maid.
00:30:32Unless he wants us to look like the bad guys or something.
00:30:36If he apologizes to you tomorrow, maybe you should think about taking him back.
00:30:44I've been working on that Hudson Yards deal for a while now.
00:30:47I need some rest.
00:30:49Here.
00:30:50Want a massage?
00:30:52I knew it.
00:30:54Now he's trying to butter me up.
00:30:57Fine.
00:31:01Well, now that it's just the two of us, say you're sorry, and we can pretend like this divorce BS
00:31:08never happened.
00:31:13Hey, I'm talking to you.
00:31:16You know what?
00:31:17I'm talking to you.
00:31:20It's rough.
00:31:24Still bluffing?
00:31:26Well, let's see how you act at the courthouse tomorrow.
00:31:29Well, let's see how you act at the courthouse tomorrow.
00:32:18How you doing, old friend?
00:32:21I've been protecting Elaine and the family for three years now.
00:32:24But after today, that deal ends.
00:32:26After this, they are on their own.
00:32:41Silas was up before sunrise making all this.
00:32:44Does this look like a man that's getting ready for a divorce?
00:32:47Maybe we keep him around for a little while.
00:32:49I've gotten used to his cooking after all.
00:32:56I've thought it over, Silas.
00:32:58I'll give you another chance.
00:33:00Sit down.
00:33:01Join us.
00:33:03I already ate.
00:33:04When you guys finish, we'll go to the courthouse and send divorce papers.
00:33:09What?
00:33:12Okay, that is enough, Silas.
00:33:15I am sick of this attitude of yours.
00:33:18I'll wait in the car.
00:33:23Unbelievable.
00:33:24Elaine gives him another chance and he just walks out.
00:33:27What does he think?
00:33:28He has options?
00:33:29Divorce him, sweetheart.
00:33:31He's asking for it.
00:33:32It just might work out.
00:33:34I mean, once you're divorced, maybe you and Tristan can get back together.
00:33:38Whatever his game is, I'm calling his bluff.
00:33:45Wait.
00:33:46Silas first.
00:33:48And then we're going.
00:33:55You better not regret this.
00:34:08I thought he was bluffing, but he really went through with it and didn't even ask for a single cent.
00:34:15Oh.
00:34:18This car belongs to the Sterling, so, uh, that's real.
00:34:25Oh, my God.
00:34:27I just realized.
00:34:30Three years, then Silas never really owned a single thing.
00:34:35Even his car wasn't really his.
00:34:37It was just there to drive me around.
00:34:40All right.
00:34:41That's it, then.
00:34:43Goodbye for good.
00:34:54So, what did I even mean to him?
00:34:57Why bother marrying me at all?
00:35:00What the hell?
00:35:01Goodbye for good?
00:35:03What is that?
00:35:03Some lame attempt to make me feel guilty?
00:35:06Sad?
00:35:07Well, screw you, because I am not falling for it.
00:35:21He threw this away?
00:35:24Should I really not mean anything to him?
00:35:29Where's Silas?
00:35:32So, is it official?
00:35:34You two are actually divorced?
00:35:36He didn't make a scene?
00:35:38Can't beg you to forgive him?
00:35:42No.
00:35:44It was quick.
00:35:45Too quick.
00:35:46That's wonderful, sweetheart.
00:35:48You're finally free.
00:35:50It's a new beginning.
00:35:51We should go celebrate you finally getting rid of that dead weight.
00:35:54I think I just need to focus on work more.
00:35:58I'm going to the office this afternoon.
00:36:00The Hudson Yards project is already underway.
00:36:03That's my girl.
00:36:05Strong as ever.
00:36:06The worst can't get you down.
00:36:12She doesn't look happy.
00:36:14Do you think it's because of Silas?
00:36:17Honestly, I think it's normal.
00:36:19You can get attached to anything after three years.
00:36:21Even a mangy mutt.
00:36:22It's just habit.
00:36:23Not love.
00:36:24True.
00:36:25Silas was useless.
00:36:28But he did take care of Elaine.
00:36:30I just think she's not used to being alone.
00:36:32She never really loved him anyway.
00:36:34Just give it a few days.
00:36:36Oh.
00:36:37Tristan came back to town.
00:36:39Once he hears that Elaine is divorced,
00:36:41I'm sure he'll come running.
00:36:43That'll cheer her up.
00:37:01Fighting with the feelings I get.
00:37:09Dancing with the shadows.
00:37:12Reaching for the edge.
00:37:14I feel as though I'm falling.
00:37:17But I ain't falling yet.
00:37:20I hold it in.
00:37:22I push it out.
00:37:23Let I breathe again.
00:37:29Silas.
00:37:30There's not a single trace of you left in the house.
00:37:34Was this on purpose?
00:37:36Is this your way of punishing me by erasing yourself from my life?
00:37:39Watch me die, fall and rise.
00:37:46I am brave, just to breathe again.
00:37:54Gone.
00:37:57Everything's gone.
00:38:02Silas.
00:38:02You think that ghosting me makes you the winner?
00:38:06I don't ever want to see your face again.
00:38:17We're throwing you a fresh dark fiesta.
00:38:19To celebrate your divorce, we're at Tristan's house.
00:38:21Get over here.
00:38:22No, Rebecca, I'm not.
00:38:25Hello?
00:38:26Hello?
00:38:29Hello?
00:38:31Hello?
00:38:32Hello?
00:38:32Hello?
00:38:44Well, then, congrats.
00:38:46I mean, freedoms never looked so good on you.
00:38:58Thanks.
00:39:04What's up with Elaine? I thought she was into you.
00:39:08I always had a little misunderstanding last time I saw her.
00:39:13I think she might still be mad.
00:39:16Well, she's single here.
00:39:18Golden opportunity like this doesn't fall into your lap every day.
00:39:22Don't screw it up.
00:39:23I won't let it slip this time.
00:39:31Fiona can't make it.
00:39:33She's swamped with exams.
00:39:36She told us to take care of Elaine without her.
00:39:40Let's start.
00:39:42Elaine, today's all about you.
00:39:45Come on, say something.
00:39:46What's it like being single again?
00:39:50What's it like being single again?
00:39:55I don't really feel anything.
00:39:59I don't really feel anything.
00:40:02It's all good.
00:40:03Just say whatever comes to mind, Elaine.
00:40:05Yeah.
00:40:06We know the past three years sucked for you.
00:40:08So now that you finally got rid of that loser Silas, you must have something to say.
00:40:15These last three years have been...
00:40:19Rough.
00:40:20You all know that my grandfather chose Silas.
00:40:24Not me.
00:40:26I thought that when we finally got divorced I'd be happy.
00:40:29And you are now.
00:40:31Right?
00:40:32No.
00:40:34We signed the papers ten hours ago and I'm not happy at all.
00:40:39Like not even a little.
00:40:40Seriously?
00:40:41Don't tell me you regret filing for divorce.
00:40:45Regretting?
00:40:45Of course not.
00:40:46I mean the divorce is exactly what I wanted.
00:40:49I just don't understand why I'm not happy.
00:40:54Maybe Silas spoiled you.
00:40:56I mean he was waiting on you hand and foot and for him to just suddenly be gone?
00:41:00Like that's probably weird.
00:41:01Yeah, that guy was obsessed with you.
00:41:03I bet he's crying his eyes out now.
00:41:07I'm not so sure about that.
00:41:10Because he vanished completely.
00:41:12Didn't leave a single trace behind.
00:41:15Well, there's one way to find out.
00:41:17Let's play.
00:41:18Dog whistle!
00:41:25That's perfect!
00:41:27Okay, Elaine.
00:41:27Hold on.
00:41:28We're kind of far from the city so let's give him say 15 minutes to get here.
00:41:33Okay.
00:41:34Come on, guys.
00:41:35I am divorced now.
00:41:37Elaine, it's a phone call.
00:41:39Besides, he loved it.
00:41:41Like I showed up right on cue every time.
00:41:43Every time?
00:41:44Really?
00:41:45It's too far.
00:41:4615 minutes is impossible.
00:41:49Okay, let's just call it a night.
00:41:51But thank you guys for the party.
00:41:53What's going on?
00:41:54Are you scared you won't show up this time?
00:41:57Come on, Elaine.
00:41:59Don't be such a buzzkill.
00:42:01I mean, we're just trying to have some fun.
00:42:03Come on.
00:42:04I mean, don't you want to see if your little lap dog still comes on your command?
00:42:10Fine.
00:42:17Your call has been forwarded to voicemail.
00:42:25Did he actually block you?
00:42:28Silas, what are you doing?
00:42:31I mean, no.
00:42:32There is no way that Silas would block Elaine.
00:42:35He's probably playing some game with her to get her attention.
00:42:39Exactly.
00:42:40That loser is sneakier than he looks.
00:42:42He's probably just trying to mess with your head.
00:42:44He's not worth thinking about.
00:42:46So, I just want to know what his game is.
00:42:50Can you call him from your phone?
00:42:52Tell him he has 15 minutes to get here.
00:42:55And if he does, I might give him a second chance.
00:43:01Wait.
00:43:02So you're saying you're going to give him another chance?
00:43:04Relax, man.
00:43:05We're just making fun of that idiot Silas.
00:43:21Oh, maybe he didn't block Elaine.
00:43:24He just got rid of his number.
00:43:26Wait.
00:43:27You guys don't think that he's so heartbroken over Elaine that he would be suicidal.
00:43:34I mean, think about it.
00:43:36Elaine, he was crazy about you.
00:43:39You divorced him out of nowhere.
00:43:40What if he can't handle life without you?
00:43:42Really?
00:43:43I mean, like, okay, he's pathetic.
00:43:45But is he that pathetic?
00:43:47Obsession makes people do crazy things.
00:43:49Elaine was basically his only reason for living.
00:43:56Silas, apologize to Tristan now.
00:43:58Then we're done.
00:43:59You're out of the Sterling family for good.
00:44:02So that's it then.
00:44:05Come out for good.
00:44:09Hey, Elaine, are you okay?
00:44:11My chest hurts.
00:44:12I'm calling 911.
00:44:14No, no, no, no, no.
00:44:15I'll be okay.
00:44:16Wait, wait.
00:44:16Everybody, back up!
00:44:17Give her air!
00:44:21You don't really think that Silas would hurt himself, right?
00:44:25I mean, he may be pathetic, but we were still together for three years.
00:44:29I don't want anything to happen to him.
00:44:31Can one of you guys go to his place?
00:44:34Where is it?
00:44:38I don't know.
00:44:42He owned a loft before we got married.
00:44:44Maybe check there.
00:44:45We barely know the guy, Elaine.
00:44:47You're the one who was married to him for three years.
00:44:50You seriously don't know where he lived?
00:44:53I guess not.
00:44:55You never went to his place?
00:44:58No.
00:44:59Never.
00:45:02Wait, you guys were married for three years and you never went to his house?
00:45:06Look, Silas, he probably lives like in some cabin out in the woods somewhere.
00:45:12I mean, why should Elaine trek out into the wilderness?
00:45:14Well, everyone knows it was a fake marriage anyway.
00:45:18Elaine, does he have any friends or family we could contact?
00:45:21No, I never met any of his friends, let alone his family.
00:45:27For three years, Silas took care of everything.
00:45:32What I ate, what I wore, where I slept.
00:45:35But I never bothered to learn anything about his life.
00:45:39He got a big settlement in the divorce, right?
00:45:41Maybe his info is on the paperwork.
00:45:42He left with nothing.
00:45:44He even returned to the car, then he drove around it.
00:45:47Wait, so then what was he after?
00:45:52Elaine, of course.
00:45:53She's gorgeous.
00:45:55She's smart.
00:45:56She's sexy.
00:45:57I mean, what guy wouldn't want to be with her?
00:45:58No way, man.
00:46:00Everyone knows that they didn't even share a bed.
00:46:07Alright, let's forget about Silas.
00:46:09And let's just have some fun.
00:46:11Yeah?

00:56:38it's been a whole week and there's still no news of you
00:56:42okay silas did you really disappear from my life for good
00:56:53elaine where have you been we've all been trying to reach you for days
00:56:56just work's been crazy so you know that you can talk to me right
00:57:01so what's next for you got any plans after the divorce i heard tristan's back in town
00:57:07you two getting back together didn't worry you were such a gossip fiona
00:57:13honestly i don't feel anything for tristan anymore
00:57:17so there's still hope for her and silas maybe they'll find their way back to each other
00:57:24if you don't feel anything for tristan then why'd you get a divorce
00:57:28i mean i know that you and silas fought a lot but this time feels final
00:57:39so that's it then uh bye for good
00:57:45maybe he just got tired he got tired are you saying that silas was the one who wanted the divorce
00:57:52of course not i was the one who ended for what it's worth elaine i think that silas is a
00:57:59really good
00:58:03man come on
00:58:08i think maybe you should take some time to think things through don't let pride make you walk away
00:58:13from someone that really cares about you you really think he's a good man a good man doesn't
00:58:19freeload off of my family for three years he sure as hell doesn't marry a woman who's already in
00:58:24love with someone else wasn't silas a victim too i mean your grandfather forced that marriage on the
00:58:30both of you he was just trying to honor his wishes no matter how badly you treated him silas never
00:58:37lost his temper doesn't that have to count for something you called me i thought you're in trouble
00:58:46but you're just behind my back calling me a dumb chud to your friends that's right then we're done
00:58:51you are out of the sterling family for good
00:58:56maybe you're right fiona
00:58:59but it doesn't matter we're already divorced you were married to silas for three years but
00:59:05you never really knew each other maybe this divorce could be the chance to start things over

01:10:51well i hate to break it to you but you're not welcome here anymore what's the matter
01:10:54Kirsten, Sterling's kick you out?
01:10:56Or maybe I just don't like you.
01:10:58Man, here's what these days.
01:11:00Got no respect.
01:11:02Don't call me kid.
01:11:03You asshole!
01:11:04I mean, if you hadn't messed up my dinner at the Japanese restaurant,
01:11:08I would be fucking the lane by now!
01:11:17Fucking hit me!
01:11:18Break his legs!
01:11:21Okay, Mr. Whitpaw.
01:11:21Hey, careful there, Chugs.
01:11:24Whatever you do right now, you can't undo.
01:11:26Big talk coming from a guy who was kicked on his ass to the street by the Sterlings.
01:11:31Now what the fuck are you guys waiting for?
01:11:33Get him!
01:11:45Wow, that's pretty impressive.
01:11:48I see where you get your attitude.
01:11:49But if you have forgotten, you fucked with the Whitmores.
01:11:52That's practically a death sentence.
01:11:55You're gonna keep talking or you can actually do something.
01:11:57You listen to me.
01:11:59The Whitmores, we're meeting with a very important VIP tonight.
01:12:03Get on your knees and beg for my forgiveness.
01:12:05And I might just let this slide.
01:12:07And what if I told you that very important guest?
01:12:09That's me.
01:12:13I mean, you're kidding me, right?
01:12:15I mean, you're just a leech that suckles from the Sterlings.
01:12:19Do you think a VIP like you who mooches off women is that important?
01:12:25Hey, I'm here.
01:12:26Pick me up.
01:12:27Yes, sir.
01:12:28I'm on my way.
01:12:28The game's afoot.
01:12:31Let's go.
01:12:33Would you stop with this game?
01:12:35I mean, who are you really trying to fool?
01:12:42Uncle Mark, what are you doing here?
01:12:48Our utmost respect, Divine One.
01:12:55Mr. Lancaster is more than sufficient.
01:12:57As you wish, Mr. Lancaster.
01:13:00I can't be serious.
01:13:01I mean, he's just a freeloader for the Sterlings.
01:13:03Shut up!
01:13:05I am not in a giving vein today.
01:13:07Mr. Lancaster only humbled himself living with that family
01:13:10so he could honor Charles Sterling's dying wish.
01:13:15I mean, he's too young to be the VIP.
01:13:17Mr. Lancaster is immortal.
01:13:18He's looked exactly the same for over 2,000 years.
01:13:22Now you listen up.
01:13:2360 years ago when he arrived,
01:13:26Mr. Lancaster made New York's most powerful families and corporations alive.
01:13:31Every one of their leaders swore loyalty to him.
01:13:36Willingly.
01:13:39You're kidding, right?
01:13:40Yet it is.
01:13:41Now, get on your knees and apologize to Mr. Lancaster.
01:13:47Mr. Lancaster, I am so sorry.
01:13:48I had no idea it was you.
01:13:50Please find it in your...
01:13:55I called you for two reasons.
01:13:57One, I'm leaving New York.
01:13:58I'm to the world again and, uh...
01:14:00I'll be back for a few decades.
01:14:02When you return, we will be here.
01:14:04The Whitmore loyalty is yours today, tomorrow, and from every generation after us.
01:14:09Second, the Sterling.
01:14:13Sir, don't worry.
01:14:14I, myself, will make sure that the Sterlings are well taken care of in your absence.
01:14:19No.
01:14:19Charles Sterling made a Sterling company 50 years ago.
01:14:23Willingham's now fit to lead.
01:14:24Elaine is...
01:14:25Serrigan.
01:14:26She's too young.
01:14:27The Sterlings will fail.
01:14:29You're right.
01:14:31As always.
01:14:32What do you need from us?
01:14:34Treat the Sterling Group like any other company from here on out.
01:14:37No special treatment.
01:14:39No exceptions.
01:14:41Understood.
01:14:49Miss Sterling, Whitmore just froze the Hudson Yards project.
01:14:52They're questioning the company's qualifications and want to audit the entire project proposal.
01:14:56What?
01:14:57Our vendors are freaking out.
01:14:59Some are demanding payment in advance?
01:15:01What should we do?
01:15:03Try to reassure them.
01:15:05I'll sort this out when I get in.
01:15:08Dammit!
01:15:09This was never part of the deal.
01:15:10Do we have the audit file they're asking for?
01:15:13No.
01:15:13Whitmore's benchmarks are sky high.
01:15:16Sterling can't deliver.
01:15:17Honestly, I can't even think of a company in New York that could.
01:15:20What the hell is wrong with the Whitmore's?
01:15:22Why mess with us?
01:15:24Wait.
01:15:25This has to be Tristan.
01:15:26You pissed him off and he's stormed out.
01:15:28This has to be payment.
01:15:30I don't think it's him.
01:15:32Who else could it be?
01:15:33Just call him and apologize.
01:15:36This business deal means everything for us.
01:15:39If Tristan really is trying to get back at us, do you actually think that apologizing would fix anything?
01:15:45Marion.
01:15:47Marion.
01:15:48He's into you and this is a perfect match for our families.
01:15:51What on earth are you talking about?
01:16:00You following me?
01:16:01Look, Uncle Mark, he told me to stick by you in case you need anything, so...
01:16:05Yeah.
01:16:06He was hoping by you hanging around you'll, uh, lend me up.
01:16:09You don't miss a thing, do you, Mr. Lancaster?
01:16:12For Mark's sake.
01:16:13Sure.
01:16:14I'm gonna go for one more stroll around New York before I leave with the arrangements.
01:16:18Okay.
01:16:18Absolutely, Mr. Lancaster.
01:16:20I'll take care of all of it.
01:16:27Mr. Lancaster, can I get you some water?
01:16:29Okay.
01:16:29That's fine, but...
01:16:34What?
01:16:37I'll go right back.
01:16:38Yeah.
01:16:39Tristan, what the hell?
01:16:41Your nose is so far up this loser's ass right now.
01:16:44You okay?
01:16:49What is wrong with you?
01:16:51You hit Gabriel over Silas.
01:16:54He kept you apart from Elaine for three years.
01:16:57What?
01:16:58No!
01:16:59Don't you two ever disrespect Mr. Lancaster again.
01:17:03Okay?
01:17:04Otherwise we are done.
01:17:05Completely.
01:17:06What the hell?
01:17:06Does he have something on you or something?
01:17:09No, my respect for him is genuine.
01:17:11And here's a little piece of advice for you two.
01:17:13Mr. Lancaster's influence is not the same thing.
01:17:14It's far beyond anything you could ever imagine.
01:17:17You two better start showing him some respect and real soon.
01:17:20Is Silas someone important?
01:17:23I don't know.
01:17:24It's the way that Tristan is acting.
01:17:26Maybe?
01:17:27Maybe?
01:17:27We better just apologize to him and get out of here, okay?
01:17:30Silas!
01:17:31Mr. Lancaster.
01:17:33We are very sorry we never meant any disrespect.
01:17:37Don't worry about it.
01:17:37You guys are never worth it.
01:17:39Right.
01:17:40Well, that's good, I guess.
01:17:47It's the Sterlings.
01:17:50Tristan, honey, Elaine has something very important to say to you.
01:17:54Are you free right now?
01:17:55Maybe you could come over and have a chat.
01:17:57Sir, the Sterlings, they want to meet you.
01:17:59Should I turn them down?
01:18:00Let them come.
01:18:02You guys are welcome to come.
01:18:06I came as soon as I got your call.
01:18:07What's going on?
01:18:08We need to do a compliant audit for Hudson Yards, but we don't have the infrastructure set up yet.
01:18:15Your dad's an expert in that area.
01:18:17Is there any way you could help us?
01:18:18My dad's at a conference in Beijing, but I know someone who can.
01:18:22Please don't say Tristan.
01:18:24I was actually talking about Silas.
01:18:26Okay, I know I might sound crazy, but please just hear me out.
01:18:30Silas is actually a mythical being who has been alive for a long longer than we thought originally.
01:18:56And it's a lot, I know.
01:18:59How could Silas possibly have anything to do with this? He's a complete nobody.
01:19:03I know it might be hard for you to believe, but Silas actually has a lot more power than you
01:19:09realize.
01:19:10So you know that I would never lie to you.
01:19:14Okay.
01:19:14Enough of this nonsense.
01:19:16Kristen's waiting.
01:19:17Elaine, let's go.
01:19:24Rebecca, Gabriel, what are you guys doing here?
01:19:27We just bumped into each other.
01:19:31Tristan, dear, you look more handsome every time I see you.
01:19:35Enough with the flattery, Miss Sherling. What are you really after?
01:19:38The Hudson Yards project seems to be put on hold, and we wondered if you could talk to your uncle.
01:19:44You know, smooth things over.
01:19:45Sorry, but I have no say in that.
01:19:48See? He has nothing to do with it.
01:19:50If you really want to talk to whoever calls the shots, you're gonna have to speak to Mr. Lancaster himself.
01:19:56Mr. Lancaster?
01:19:57You mean Silas?
01:19:59Don't be ridiculous, Tristan. He doesn't have that kind of power.
01:20:03I mean, you guys only got the project because he was doing a favor for my Uncle Mark.
01:20:07Tristan, are you messing with me?
01:20:09Come on, everyone knows that you and Silas hate each other.
01:20:12You really expect me to believe a word of this?
01:20:14Would you believe it if I said it myself?
01:20:18Mr. Whitmore, how can we fix this Hudson Yards project?
01:20:22Mr. Whitmore, the Sterling Group might not have as much influence, but we signed a contract. You can't just push
01:20:29us around.
01:20:29Why do you think I gave you that contract in the first place?
01:20:32The Sterling Group clearly didn't meet the qualification.
01:20:35It was a favor to Mr. Lancaster.
01:20:38Since he's no longer tied to your family, well, business is business.
01:20:41My God, so was Silas all along.
01:20:45What are we supposed to do now?
01:20:46I told you Elaine Silas was a good man, but no, just had to go and divorce him.
01:20:51Silas!
01:20:52Come out!
01:20:53I know you're here!
01:21:02I told you I teach you a lesson, so what'd you learn?
01:21:08What, so that's what this is about?
01:21:09You wanted to see me break down?
01:21:12Beg for your forgiveness?
01:21:14Oh, well guess what?
01:21:16That is never gonna happen.
01:21:19Look, I don't know how you got to the Whitmore's, but Sterling Group will be just fine without Hudson Yards.
01:21:24We have plenty of other deals lined up.
01:21:26The truth is right in front of you.
01:21:28You're just choosing not to believe it.
01:21:29How do you explain the two harbor shipping licenses I secured last week?
01:21:34Massive shipments, worth billions, moving in and out every day.
01:21:38You're telling me that's because of you too?
01:21:46Hey, the Sterling shipping license.
01:21:49Dan, both ports.
01:21:51Yeah, immediately.
01:21:52Thanks so much.
01:21:54You're still keeping up this little act, Silas?
01:21:57You really think that if you just snap your fingers you can shut us down?
01:22:01Any second now.
01:22:03What?
01:22:10Miss Sterling, something's wrong.
01:22:12We just heard from the port authority.
01:22:14They're suspending both of our shipping licenses.
01:22:16What?
01:22:16Why is this happening to me?
01:22:18I worked so hard for all of this.
01:22:21It's over.
01:22:23I've lost everything.
01:22:27Elaine, don't say that.
01:22:28Silas is still here.
01:22:30You can fix this.
01:22:31So those contracts?
01:22:33All the partnerships?
01:22:35They were all because of you?
01:22:36You believe me now?
01:22:38All this time you were helping us from behind the scenes.
01:22:42Everything we have is because of you.
01:22:46God, I paraded around.
01:22:49Proud.
01:22:50Arrogant.
01:22:50Showing off in front of you like a complete fool.
01:22:53You put up with three years of that.
01:22:55God, you must have hated every minute of it.
01:22:59Doesn't matter now.
01:23:00I just do what a husband should do.
01:23:02Tell what you're always asked.
01:23:03That's all.
01:23:04I'm so sorry.
01:23:06Silas.
01:23:08I was terrible to you.
01:23:10I pushed you away.
01:23:12I blamed you for everything.
01:23:13As soon as we got divorced, I regretted it immediately.
01:23:16And I searched everywhere for you.
01:23:20But when I finally found you and had the chance to tell you,
01:23:23I let my pride get in the way.
01:23:26And I destroyed us all over again.
01:23:28I am so sorry.
01:23:30So sorry.
01:23:34It's true.
01:23:35Elaine's been miserable since the divorce.
01:23:37Yeah, totally.
01:23:38She tried to come back, but-
01:23:39I know.
01:23:42Silas used to wait here for me after work.
01:23:48I know you're sorry, and I accept your apology.
01:23:51And if you want, I can get Sterling Groot back on track.
01:23:55I want to rebuild Sterling on my own.
01:23:58I just have one last question for you.
01:24:00Silas.
01:24:02These three years, you never really loved me.
01:24:06That you-
01:24:07Your kindness and your patience, it was just pity, wasn't it?
01:24:11I'm sorry.
01:24:13Hey, Kira.
01:24:15We were never really equals.
01:24:17But I'm gonna change that, step by step, on my own.
01:24:21Maybe one day, you'll finally respect me.
01:24:24I'm looking forward to it.
01:24:31This really has changed.
01:24:34Yeah.
01:24:35She really has.
01:24:37So, Coach.
01:24:38What's next for you?
01:24:40I don't know.
01:24:41I still leave New York.
01:24:43To the world.
01:24:43We're back in a few years now.
01:24:45So it's changed.
01:24:46Take it easy to go.
01:24:50Damn Fiona, you are so into him.
01:24:53I am not.
01:24:54I don't-
01:24:54Please.
01:24:55We're not blind.
01:24:56Look.
01:24:57Everyone deserves a chance of happiness.
01:24:59So what are you waiting for?
01:25:01Silas, wait.
01:25:03Take me with you.
