00:00So, from a structuralist point of view, I think your plan is clear and effective.
00:04But maybe if we looked at it from another perspective, we...
00:07Jess! Get out of here!
00:10Mom, I'm in the middle of class. I...
00:12What the hell do you think you're doing? Ignoring our calls?
00:15Dad, stop! I'm in class!
00:17Not anymore!
00:18What are you guys doing?
00:20No! Stop! Let me go!
00:22I have to go back to class!
00:23Stop it! No! Stop!
00:25Stop! Not. Any. More!
00:30Stop!
00:31Dad!
00:33You're marrying that old Chandler geezer today instead of Ruby.
00:37You sold me off to him?
00:40You took his money and now I have to pay for it?
00:44He wants Ruby, not me!
00:51My sister's bitter because I'm marrying Paul Wilson.
00:54He's giving our family five million.
00:57And she has to marry the old broke geezer.
01:01Look at this ungrateful little brat.
01:04Our family gave her everything.
01:07But she only thinks about herself.
01:09You owe us marry him.
01:12End of story.
01:16Everything I got came with strings attached.
01:23How dare you glare at me?
01:25Agh!
01:31You got some nerve!
01:33Do I need to teach you a lesson?
01:34No!
01:35No!
01:36I'll marry him.
01:40But we're finished.
01:42From this moment on,
01:44I don't owe any of you.
01:46A damn thing.
01:51Get out of my way.
02:09Hey, good morning!
02:15Please, don't tell me that's him.
02:19Can I still run?
02:27You are one of the Rogers girls, right?
02:32My beautiful, my gorgeous
02:37granddaughter-in-law!
02:42Oh, thank God.
02:43He's the grandfather.
02:46Great!
02:47My grandson was supposed to be here,
02:49but he got hung up,
02:50so I thought I would come
02:52and meet you myself.
02:54Well, Grandpa,
02:57is there any way to get an Uber around you?
02:59My suitcase is a little heavy.
03:00Uber?
03:01I'm afraid we're a little too far off
03:03for that to work, all right?
03:04But don't worry.
03:05I've got a sweet ride for us.
03:13Yep, hop in.
03:15Real comfortable.
03:19Or would you like to ride in the back?
03:46I guess, as you can see,
03:48well, for our living,
03:49we collect recyclables.
03:50So, the place gets kind of rough.
03:53I hope that's okay.
03:55It is rough,
03:56but life's what we make it.
03:58I'll make ours better.
04:00Now, look,
04:01if you don't agree with that,
04:02then I understand, all right?
04:03You can change your mind if you want.
04:05I mean, I won't try to stop you.
04:08No, no, no.
04:09There's nothing shameful
04:11about making an honest living.
04:12And, you know,
04:13I'm in school for business development,
04:14so maybe I could help
04:16with some improvements.
04:17Really?
04:19My grandson,
04:21he just hit the jackpot.
04:33But who hit the jackpot, Grandpa?
04:37Wait.
04:38The old, ugly junkyard boss
04:40looks like this.
04:42Does he moonlight as a model or something?
04:46Hi.
04:46I'm Ray Chandler.
04:48What?
04:53Oh, oh, um, yeah,
04:54I'm, I'm Jess.
04:57Nice to meet you.
05:01Is this real gold?
05:03Yeah, the paper gets soggy,
05:04but, uh,
05:05gold lasts.
05:09This has got to be worth,
05:10like, $1,500.
05:15You carry your own
05:16$1,500 business cards
05:18and that's what you have to say?
05:20Mm-hmm.
05:22Oh, my God.
05:25There's got to be, like,
05:26hundreds of them in here.
05:31Well, this looks like
05:32the key to a Porsche.
05:39They're real?
05:40Yeah, downtown's pretty far,
05:42so if you need that
05:43to run any errands in,
05:44you can definitely take it.
05:46Or if you'd like, you know.
05:54Oops.
05:57So, the, um,
05:59yeah, the BMW's good for the rain.
06:01Yeah, the rolls,
06:03great for napping in,
06:03and then,
06:04and this one's a Ferrari.
06:06It's good for shopping,
06:07doing errands,
06:07that sort of thing.
06:08And if you don't like those,
06:10I can give you a more low-key option.
06:12How about, uh,
06:14Ben's,
06:14or, hey, Lincoln.
06:17Lincoln's are great, yeah.
06:18I thought we were supposed
06:19to be living off the recyclables.
06:21Yes, we are.
06:25Is that a three-million-dollar Lamborghini?
06:29Hauling trash?
06:32Why not?
06:33Lamborghini started out
06:34making tractors.
06:35I'm just letting them
06:36do honest work again.
06:40The junkyard I married into
06:42is actually a recycling empire?
06:48Well, we've got
06:49over a hundred plants
06:50across the United States.
06:52This one, of course,
06:53is one of the smaller ones.
06:56You have over a hundred?
06:58How much money
06:59are you bringing in every year?
07:01From recycling alone,
07:0330, 40 million.
07:05Nothing crazy.
07:06From recycling alone?
07:08How many businesses
07:09do you guys have?
07:10Yeah, we're in construction,
07:12materials, energy,
07:14transportation.
07:15We're all over.
07:17Jesus.
07:19If it weren't for the CL Group,
07:20you guys would have
07:21the largest operation
07:22in the country.
07:23CL Group?
07:26That's us.
07:27What?
07:29The world's largest skyscraper.
07:32You built that?
07:35Here you go.
07:36This card,
07:37it has 10 billion on it
07:38and you can buy
07:38whatever you want
07:39and if you need more,
07:40just ask.
07:40No, no, goodness,
07:42that is way too much.
07:44Just give me
07:45a daily allowance.
07:47Um, okay,
07:48how does 800 per day sound?
07:50No, no,
07:52200 would be just fine.
07:56Uh, okay,
07:58if you insist.
08:08200,000 per day?
08:11Oh, I knew,
08:12I knew that wasn't enough.
08:14All right?
08:15Don't be stingy.
08:17Put a couple zeros in there.
08:19Give me,
08:19just a little more.
08:20No, no, no, no,
08:21no, please.
08:22This is more than enough.
08:26I mean,
08:26with all the new information
08:27I learned,
08:27I think my head's spinning
08:29so if you give me any more,
08:30I'd probably be an ambulance.
08:33All right then,
08:35um,
08:35why don't I take you outside
08:36and get some fresh air?
08:44Uh,
08:45you might want to hold on
08:46a bit tighter.
08:46This thing doesn't have seat belts.
08:50I'm fine.
08:51Okay.
08:54Whoa!
09:17I was only holding on so tight
09:19because you were driving
09:20like a maniac.
09:21Yeah.
09:28Is this a limited edition
09:29Harley-Davidson?
09:31Isn't this worth,
09:32like,
09:3250 million dollars?
09:33Yeah,
09:34it's, uh,
09:34dirt cheap, right?
09:36You think 50 million
09:37is dirt cheap?
09:42Oh!
09:50Be careful.
09:52Thanks.
09:53Yeah.
09:55Hey, hey, hey!
09:57No, come on.
10:00I,
10:01I can walk by myself.
10:03Look, don't move.
10:04I've got you.
10:23We were thinking you could bring
10:24your new husband home
10:25for mom's birthday.
10:26What do you think?
10:27Mm-hmm.
10:28I'm not going back.
10:29I know you're worried
10:31that your sister
10:32will outshine you,
10:33but we still need to meet
10:34your new husband,
10:35don't we?
10:36Dad says you have to come home
10:38unless you're ready
10:38to cut ties completely.
10:41Family's still family.
10:43Are we really doing this?
10:45Cutting each other off for good?
10:47I'll go with you.
11:00It's beautiful here.
11:02Yeah.
11:04I'm glad you like it.
11:06My great-grandfather
11:07actually built it.
11:09And
11:11there's actually
11:12only one key.
11:13I want to give it to you.
11:15I want you to feel like
11:16this place is home to you.
11:18No, we just met.
11:28I'll take good care of it.
11:30I promise.
11:40Look at that car.
11:42Ruby really knows
11:43how to pick on it.
11:44No kidding.
11:44Paul's a senior manager
11:46at CL Group.
11:47The writers are set
11:48for life now.
11:49Mom, Dad, we're back.
11:52Hello, darling.
11:55A little something for you,
11:57Mrs. Rogers.
11:59Oh, my.
12:00Happy birthday.
12:02Is this the custom
12:04high-end model?
12:05Paul, you must have spent
12:06a hundred thousand dollars.
12:08You spoil me.
12:15Now that's quality.
12:17You're the pride of the family, Paul.
12:19Oh, nice.
12:24Oh, the junkyard bride
12:27decided to show.
12:28Could two sisters
12:29really be so far apart?
12:34You show up alone
12:35empty-handed.
12:36Do you know what?
12:37Have any idea
12:37how this looks?
12:39Relax, Dad.
12:40Her husband's probably
12:41elbow-deep in a dumpster
12:42somewhere.
12:42You can't really expect
12:43much from either of them.
12:46Typical,
12:46no class,
12:47no manners,
12:48no gifts.
12:49I should have known.
12:55I made these for you all.
12:57It's crystals for protection.
12:59I thought maybe
13:00they could keep you
13:00and I'd say.
13:02Oh, my God.
13:03Are those from
13:04a farmer's market
13:04or something?
13:05My niece makes
13:06better jewelry
13:07in kindergarten.
13:10The Rogers raised her
13:11for 25 years,
13:12and this is what they get.
13:13Pathetic.
13:18Disgrace.
13:19You and your trash
13:20picker husband.
13:21Perfect match.
13:23One man's trash
13:24is another man's treasure,
13:26Get out!
13:27Now!
13:28You heard her.
13:29Get out.
13:30We don't have a daughter
13:31this shameful.
13:33I should have never
13:35even thought about
13:36inviting you.
13:37Stop right there.
13:39Who said
13:40Jess's gift was trash?
13:46What are you doing here?
13:48Ray was when the lady
13:49wanted me to bring
13:50the gifts they had.
13:50All right?
13:59This is one of my
14:00family's favorites.
14:02And I hope you enjoy it, too.
14:06This needs a lot.
14:09A Dylan Santorini painting?
14:11Those go for
14:12$100 million.
14:16Nice try, old man.
14:18Do you think we're stupid
14:18or something?
14:19This is obviously
14:21a knockoff
14:22they got at the junkyard
14:23or something.
14:24That's what you get
14:25with these people.
14:26Either trash
14:27or cheap
14:28fakes.
14:29I knew it looked off.
14:30It has to be a fake.
14:35You can say
14:35whatever you want to me,
14:36but leave
14:37my grandfather-in-law
14:38out of this.
14:40Mom, Dad,
14:41she just hit me
14:42in front of everyone.
14:43Do something.
14:45You got a lot of nerve
14:46laying a hand
14:47on your sister.
14:49I'm your daughter, too.
14:50I'm a Rogers.
14:52Doesn't that mean anything?
14:53Not anymore.
14:54You show up
14:55with this con artist,
14:56embarrass us
14:57with these fake gifts,
14:58attack your sister?
15:01You're no daughter of mine.
15:03Hey!
15:03Open your damned eyes.
15:06Jess is remarkable.
15:07How can someone
15:08like you throw her away?
15:10She is worth nothing
15:11compared to Ruby.
15:14Honestly,
15:15kicking her out
15:15is generous.
15:18I spent years
15:19trying to earn their love.
15:21But the moment
15:22I met someone
15:22who actually cared,
15:24they never loved me at all.
15:26Fine.
15:28I'll go.
15:30But this will be
15:30the last time
15:31we see each other.
15:32Wait, you're cutting ties?
15:33With all of us?
15:34Well,
15:35I mean,
15:36that's what you wanted,
15:37isn't it?
15:37That's why you invited me here?
15:39Mock my words.
15:41Losing Jess,
15:42that's going to be
15:43the biggest mistake
15:43of your miserable lives.
15:46Yeah, let's go.
15:47Hold on.
15:48You think you can
15:49just walk in and out
15:50of here like nothing happened?
15:55Hold on.
15:56You think you can
15:56just walk in and out
15:57of here like nothing happened?
15:59What do you want from me?
16:00I don't know, Jess.
16:02Cutting ties is serious.
16:04Don't you think
16:04there should be
16:04some kind of
16:06ceremony?
16:09You were always
16:10the perfect one, Jess.
16:12Time to tear that down.
16:15Grandfather,
16:16I think we should
16:16take these gifts
16:17to someone
16:17who would actually
16:18deserve them.
16:20Yeah.
16:21Yeah, I got it.
16:24I have an emergency.
16:25I'm going to have to
16:26step away.
16:27That Ray's going to be
16:27here any second,
16:28aren't we?
16:29Okay.
16:33Dear sister.
16:38Why don't you play a song
16:40for Mom one last time
16:41after everything she's done?
16:43It's the least you could do.
16:45I'm not asking too much
16:46after all these years.
17:00You don't want to hear me play.
17:02You want to watch me bleed.
17:12This seems important to you.
17:13Keep that back.
17:15Play one song
17:16and I'll give it back
17:17in one piece.
17:18Is that the best you have?
17:20What if I say no?
17:21Your choice, but
17:24I'm not keeping it either way.
17:29No!
17:32I want you to have it.
17:33I want you to feel like
17:34this place is home to you.
17:36I'll take good care of it.
17:38I promise.
17:40Fine.
17:43I'll play.
18:10Yes.
18:10Ray, where the hell are you?
18:12Jess might be in trouble.
18:13I just wrapped up.
18:15We'll be there soon.
18:19We're going to need to step on it.
18:41Okay, I did it.
18:44a key.
18:45Sure.
18:47Here you go.
18:48No!
18:51No!
18:55No!
18:57No!
18:59What do you want from me?
19:02Look at you.
19:04Absolutely perfect.
19:06Absolutely perfect, flawless, Jess.
19:08And absolutely means nothing.
19:10Mom and dad love me.
19:12I married the rich husband
19:14and you?
19:15You'll always be underneath my heel.
19:19When my husband gets here,
19:20you'll regret this.
19:22Your junkyard husband?
19:24What's he going to do?
19:25Honestly,
19:26I'm curious,
19:27what happens if I ruin
19:28this pretty face of yours?
19:31Don't
19:31do this.
19:34Let go of me!
19:36Let go of me!
19:48Don't cry.
19:50Don't cry.
19:52Don't cry.
19:59Don't cry.
20:03Who dares touch my wife?
20:07Who dares touch my wife?
20:16So I'm looking at you.
20:18Sarah, you pushed me. Who the hell are you?
20:20I am her husband.
20:23Wait, Jess's husband looks like that?
20:27Who said he was drunk to her trash?
20:29Why does he have a helicopter?
20:30He actually came by a helicopter.
20:33Is he some sort of secret billionaire?
20:35Oh no. Did we just make a huge mistake?
20:39Look at those bodyguards.
20:41Ha! Ridiculous.
20:43No billionaire would marry Jess.
20:46It's obvious. He hired these people for show
20:49and rented that helicopter.
20:52Exactly. It's all fake.
20:54Jess, your husband's only skill is playing dress-up.
21:01I kept it safe.
21:05Just like I promised.
21:07Who did this to you?
21:13Yeah, I did it. So what?
21:15She chose a stupid key over her stupid fingers.
21:18It's her fault.
21:20You put your hands on my wife
21:22and you're going to pay the price?
21:25Ten times over!
21:28My husband is a CL group senior member.
21:31You touched me and you're done.
21:32Hey, let our daughter go.
21:35Get your hands off our daughter!
21:36Go, go, go!
21:37Do something!
21:49Get my jet ready now.
21:50I want the best surgeons in the country.
21:52I want Jess's hands to be perfect
21:53like nothing ever happened.
21:55Yes, sir.
21:56Yes, sir.
22:02You even rented a private jet?
22:07She's protected like she's royalty
22:09while I'm stuck with a coward?
22:12This is humiliating!
22:14Ruby, hold still.
22:15I saw her. It's pretty bad.
22:17Oh, yeah.
22:18Why does he look exactly like our chairman?
22:23Some men rent jets to back their wife.
22:26You can't even open your mouth
22:27when I'm being attacked!
22:30Coward!
22:32You're not even a man!
22:34Shut your mouth!
22:36If you touch me again, you'll regret it.
22:38Divorce! I'm done with you!
22:40Fine. Let's do it!
22:46Paul Wilson?
22:49Sir, are you...
22:50Are you saying...
22:52the chairman himself promoted me?
22:54To regional director?
22:59Sir, I don't understand.
23:01Why promote the guy who hurt Miss Jess?
23:12Because...
23:14the higher that they climb,
23:16the farther they fall.
23:18And anyone who touches my wife
23:20pays the price.
23:22Always.
23:26To regional director?
23:30Regional director!
23:32You hear that?
23:33I got a promotion.
23:35Babe, seriously?
23:36Like, you're gonna be making millions?
23:37Ten times as much as you make now!
23:39Roger, family, is gonna be set for life!
23:41I knew it!
23:43You were destined for greatness!
23:45Ruby's got excellent tastes!
23:49Oh.
23:50Now you want to be friends.
23:52Weren't you just screaming about divorce?
23:55No, no.
23:55Come on.
23:56Let's go sign the papers.
23:57No, no, no.
23:57Wait.
24:00She...
24:00Divorce never!
24:02Paul, you're the most amazing man
24:03I've ever met.
24:04I mean that.
24:04Well,
24:05since we're celebrating,
24:08dinner's on me.
24:10We're going to Lunair.
24:12The finest restaurant in the world.
24:14Oh my gosh,
24:14isn't Lunair like the most expensive
24:16restaurant in the city?
24:17With his new position?
24:19It's just pocket change.
24:21Let's go celebrate!
24:24Oh, doctor.
24:25I can finish that.
24:31Who were you talking to earlier?
24:35Nobody important.
24:38Are you hungry?
24:39Have you eaten yet?
24:42I'm really not hungry.
24:51Pilots?
24:52We'll change course.
24:53We're going to Lunair.
24:54Lunair?
24:55No, no, no.
24:55That's way too expensive.
24:56I don't need something so elaborate.
24:57It's okay.
25:08I'm so sorry.
25:09I, I, I am so sorry.
25:11I, I really,
25:11I didn't mean to.
25:12Um, it's just...
25:13Why are you so nervous?
25:15I'm not nervous.
25:17I just...
25:22I mean,
25:23Lunair is so, so expensive.
25:24Thousands of dollars to pay.
25:26We don't have to waste
25:27that kind of money.
25:27And who says
25:28that we'll be spending a dime?
25:31What do you mean?
25:33Welcome, Mr. Chairman!
25:36Wait,
25:37we're not paying because
25:38you own this place?
25:41We own this place.
25:43Oh my god!
25:46I never dreamt I set foot
25:48in a place like this.
25:49Paul,
25:50you make me feel like royalty.
25:52Our Paul really made it.
25:54I heard only the top of the top
25:56dying here.
25:57Mom,
25:57Dad,
25:58relax.
25:59Paul's about to be
26:00regional director soon.
26:02This will be our regular spot.
26:05Lunair belongs to CL Group.
26:07Once I'm officially promoted,
26:09eating here will be
26:10just like eating at home.
26:12Unlike Jess's junkyard husband,
26:15who probably maxed out
26:16every credit card he owns
26:17just to rent that private jet
26:19for the day.
26:20Oh,
26:20she probably begged him to do it.
26:22So desperate to look successful.
26:25Honestly,
26:25if I ever see her again,
26:27I'll...
26:31No way.
26:32Is that...
26:37Well,
26:37well,
26:37look who decided to show up.
26:40How'd you two even get past the door?
26:42Funny.
26:43I was about to ask you
26:44the same thing.
26:45You obviously found out
26:46we were coming
26:47and followed us here.
26:48Trying to worm your way
26:50back into the family?
26:52Pathetic.
26:52We were here first.
26:54How exactly would that work?
26:56Please.
26:56Lunair is members only.
26:58I'm surprised you two
27:00junkyard rats
27:01walked in by yourselves.
27:03Hey,
27:03why don't you just leave?
27:04Your poverty is contagious
27:06and we're trying
27:08to enjoy yourselves.
27:09Apparently,
27:10you all haven't learned
27:11your lessons
27:11since the last time.
27:12So I'm going to need you to move.
27:14You're in our way.
27:15How dare you?
27:17Actually,
27:17never mind.
27:19Paul is about to be
27:20CL Group's
27:21regional director.
27:23You're not even
27:23in our league anymore.
27:25Face it.
27:26Only people like me
27:27belong here.
27:28Why don't you two
27:29run along
27:29before security
27:30throws you out?
27:32Excuse me.
27:34CL's executive
27:35has arrived.
27:36Is the VIP suite ready?
27:38Sir,
27:39your exclusive
27:39VIP card,
27:40your private suite
27:41is ready
27:42and waiting.
27:43You see that?
27:44This is what
27:45real class looks like.
27:56Sir,
27:57if you and your lady
27:58would please
27:58follow me.
28:09What the hell?
28:10Why are they getting
28:11VIP treatment?
28:12I am about to be
28:13regional director.
28:14Sir, please.
28:15Calm down.
28:18They are...
28:22They are...
28:23They are...
28:23regulars here.
28:25Regulars?
28:27They pick through
28:28trash for a living.
28:32Forget it, babe.
28:34Jess probably worked
28:35here as a waitress
28:36or something.
28:36Let's just go in
28:37already.
28:42whatever.
28:43Lucky for them.
28:46Let's go.
29:07Is this a drink?
29:08Obviously.
29:10Fine dining is all
29:12about presentation.
29:13Lemon water
29:14as a palate cleanser.
29:15Now,
29:16that is
29:17sophistication.
29:40This is for
29:41washing your
29:41hands?
29:55Haven't you ever been
29:56to a fine restaurant?
29:59How dare you, this service is completely unacceptable, bring me your finest bottle of wine, now or I am reporting
30:06every single one of you.
30:10Take this century old Roman A. Conte to the chairman, sir.
30:19Finally, someone with some sense.
30:26I will give you one more chance to-
30:33Sir, our manager personally selected this Roman A. Conte for you, we hope you enjoy it.
30:38That'll be perfect, thank you.
30:44It's a Roman A. Conte, it's a century old vintage, it's perfect before you go to sleep and it makes
30:50you heal faster.
30:55Wow, it's amazing, I mean, I've never had anything like it.
31:00Why didn't they get the fancy wine and we have nothing?
31:03Did they even train you? You've insulted us twice now and you are serving garbage collectors!
31:11Sir, I sincerely apologize, but that wine is nothing special.
31:16For you, I've got something much better. A 200 year old vintage.
31:24Sir, we don't have 200 year old bottles of wine.
31:28Those idiots just drank hand soap. Do you think they'll know the difference?
31:32Tell her some toilet water, put it in a fancy bottle, we'll never know.
31:37Yes, sir.
31:38Good man.
31:52Look at the legs on that glass.
31:55And that dark burgundy color. That's how you know it's 200 year old wine.
32:02Thank God we got you, sweetheart. If we only had Jess, we'd still be scraping by not drinking fine wine
32:10like this.
32:11I'm nothing like that, broke loser.
32:14Stick with me, and this is just the beginning.
32:21Wait!
32:26Jess.
32:27You're holding that wine glass all wrong.
32:31You've clearly never had wine like this.
32:33Let me educate you.
32:35First, you appreciate the aroma.
32:49Then you savor it.
32:59Never quite had wine like this.
33:02Tastes like water and...
33:04Might be something worse, like a hint of urine?
33:08That's because you don't understand aged wine.
33:12As the wine ages, the less alcohol remains.
33:15When it tastes like water, that's how you know it's authentic.
33:34Notes of animal.
33:37Almost wild.
33:38Straight from the vineyard.
33:40That's how you know it's real.
33:45Hey, what, Jess?
33:48Sir, you clearly have a refined palate.
33:52Most people wouldn't recognize such subtle notes.
33:55I'm a man of taste.
33:57I've had a century-old Romani Conti dozens of times.
34:01This is absolutely legitimate.
34:03That's our future regional director.
34:06Such sophistication.
34:08Our son-in-law is so worldly.
34:11I'm like Jess's trash-picking husband.
34:14He probably never even seen expensive wine like this.
34:18Oh, right. I've never had wine like this.
34:21Jess, is it true your husband spent your entire life savings on that jet rental just to compete with me?
34:29Pathetic.
34:30Do you know how much garbage you're gonna have to pick through to pay off that?
34:35This isn't a competition, Ruby.
34:38And the fact that you're so willing to show off shows everything about how insecure that you are.
34:46You better-
34:47Enough. These people aren't even worth our time.
34:53Don't let them get to you. You order anything you'd like on the menu, the chef is absolutely incredible.
35:01These prices are insane.
35:04We don't have to.
35:06What's wrong?
35:07Too scared to order.
35:09It's nice. I have a husband who lets me order anything I want. Right, babe?
35:16All right. We'll have the alpha white truffle. We'll do the French foie gras with blue lobster.
35:21We'll also do the Alaskan king crab.
35:23And whatever Antarctic seafood that's coming to play, we will take that.
35:27And we will finish it off with the Jeff Sigurdsher mousse. Thank you so much.
35:30Oh, and also, can you please keep the sauces light? My wife doesn't like it heavy.
35:37What's wrong? They've already ordered. Order something.
35:41Why is everything so damn expensive?
35:43What are you gawking at? Order!
35:47Fine. We'll have whatever they're having.
36:02Bon appetit.
36:08It's delicious.
36:09Good. I'm glad you like it.
36:15Um, excuse me. Why do they have all their food and we're sitting here with nothing?
36:21This is completely unacceptable. You know what? Cancel it. All of it. We are not eating here.
36:28I'm sorry, sir, but unfortunately that won't be possible.
36:36See, all our dishes require payment and advance and your total comes to one million dollars.
36:42So as soon as you settle your bill, we'll begin serving immediately.
36:49A million?
36:50Oh, please. You don't think we can afford that? Our son-in-law is getting a promotion. This is nothing.
36:58We could go two million if you wanted to.
37:00Shut your mouth!
37:02Why are you yelling? When you get the promotion, it'll be like pocket change.
37:09Oh, yeah? Why don't you take your money out and play for the meal then?
37:14All our prices are posted. If you can pay, you can eat. But if you can't, stop pretending like you
37:21belong here.
37:22Security, get them out!
37:23Why are you kicking us out? When those garbage collectors are sitting there, why do they get to stay?
37:28People who can't pay their bills don't get to question our VIPs.
37:33VIPs?
37:35Oh, I know what this is. They bribed you, didn't they?
37:39Well, you should know that when my husband gets his promotion, he will fire all of you.
37:45Look, I don't care who you think your husband is. You can't pay, you leave. Period.
37:54And those two? You're not worth five minutes of their time. Get them out of my restaurant.
38:01What are you doing? You can't do this.
38:05Are you people blind? The trash collectors are still sitting in there and you throw out a CL Group executive?
38:11We serve VIP members, not freeloaders. Should I skip on a check?
38:17Oh, and the manager wanted me to pass along a message.
38:20That 200-year-old whine you were raving about? Toilet water and food coloring.
38:25Bon Appetit.
38:27What did you just say?
38:29What on earth is happening?
38:32We don't understand it.
38:34What does Jess's husband actually do and why do they keep treating him like royal?
38:37He's nobody. They bribed the staff. This was a whole thing to set up to humiliate us.
38:42And you, loser. You call yourself a regional director. You can't even handle one restaurant manager.
38:49You stupid bitch.
38:53If you hadn't insisted I'm starting shit with them, none of this would have happened.
38:58Mark my words. The second I officially get promoted, I am dealing with them.
39:03And then I am dealing with you.
39:24It's fine. I am dealing with you.
39:25It's fine. It's fine. You understand.
39:38I guess I was just wondering why your family stayed the same place for so long.
39:42I mean, you guys could afford to go anywhere.
39:46Yeah, uh, my family started everything here.
39:50We built this place from nothing.
39:52And my grandpa still lives here, and there's no way I can abandon them.
39:59Are you still thinking of them?
40:03They're not my family anymore.
40:12Well, now you have us.
40:14Me and Grandpa.
40:17We're your family now.
40:26It's, um...
40:28It's late.
40:29I should go to bed.
40:32Right.
40:38Um...
40:39We could...
40:41We just met.
40:45Sharing a bed this quickly, don't you think things would be moving a little too fast?
40:51Yeah.
40:52You're right.
40:55Hey, Grandpa?
40:57Do you have an extra spare room that I could stay in for the night?
41:01Not a one.
41:02Everything's storage for now.
41:04Oh.
41:05Okay.
41:06Well, I'll just stay out in the recycle warehouse, I guess.
41:13Don't.
41:14I mean, this bed is...
41:16We could share it.
41:18But I didn't leave it like that.
41:20And I was just thinking because...
41:21Because you said that you were gonna go...
41:22And you didn't have to...
41:35Actually, look.
41:36I need to take a shower.
41:37Uh...
41:37Excuse me.
41:38Ten minutes.
41:51Oh, my God.
41:53Was I that obvious?
42:18Do you, um...
42:22Do you not...
42:24Wear pajamas?
42:26I never got in the habit of it.
42:28I sleep better like this.
42:30Okay.
42:32Well...
42:32Great.
42:34I'm exhausted.
42:35I'm gonna go to sleep.
42:37Okay.
42:53What are you doing?
42:56Um...
42:57It's just...
42:58A little bit cold and...
43:00The blankets are small.
43:03So...
43:06We've only been married a few days.
43:09Don't you think this is a little...
43:12Fast?
43:13I'm just holding you.
43:16That's all.
43:19Okay.
43:24Right?
43:26Your...
43:27Your chest is really firm.
43:29Hmm.
43:33You're holding me too tight.
43:36Right?
43:41I...
43:42I thought you said we weren't gonna do anything.
43:45I know.
43:45I know.
43:45I'm...
43:46I'm sorry.
43:47But look, I...
43:47I am a man.
43:48And you just...
43:49Keep...
43:50Saying my name like that.
44:00Ray?
44:01Just finished clearing out that guest room.
44:04Come on.
44:04Don't keep Jess up all night.
44:07Okay.
44:07Thanks, Grandpa.
44:15Ray?
44:17Yes?
44:18Maybe we should...
44:23Tone things down a bit.
44:27Financially...
44:27I mean...
44:28Those fancy dinners...
44:29We don't have to do that.
44:31We're married.
44:32We should be responsible.
44:34Well, I...
44:35I don't mean to criticize you.
44:36I just...
44:37I...
44:38I think that maybe we should start to think...
44:40Yeah, you're right.
44:41You're right.
44:41I'm...
44:43I'm grateful to have a wife that...
44:45thinks of our future in this way.
44:47Though, I have to say that Grandpa's timing couldn't have been any worse.
44:52I...
44:52And now that you're a lady of the house, that means that you are in control of the finances.
44:58Starting tomorrow, you will have the company ledgers.
45:00What?
45:01No, no, no.
45:02I wasn't...
45:03I didn't mean that.
45:03I just...
45:03Company announcement.
45:05Jess Rogers is now the CEO of CL Group.
45:09Make it official.
45:12Now, is there anything else that you'd like to ask of me?
45:19Like...
45:20Asking me not to leave?
45:29Well...
45:30That room probably hasn't been used in forever.
45:33So long.
45:35And...
45:35Well, it's probably really dusty.
45:38Super dusty.
45:39I think that...
45:45I'm so idiot.
45:48Okay...
45:49Um...
45:50Then...
45:51When will you be ready?
45:52At the wedding.
45:54The real one.
45:56Hmm.
45:58Make my wedding ready in one week.
46:01You can't just call people in the middle of the night like that.
46:04We're something so small.
46:06No, no, no.
46:06This is not small.
46:08And I'm done waiting.
46:16I'm done waiting.
46:16I'm done waiting.
46:16Tell us that you went.
46:20Come on.
46:24Good night, my love.
46:28Good night.
46:47Need a personal advisor? I'm on standby.
46:52He's such a charmer.
46:56Miss Jess, here's the quarterly financial summary you asked for.
47:07Looks like we've got some parasites bleeding this company dry.
47:13I want everyone on that list terminated. Today.
47:19Baby, I know I messed up. I shouldn't have said those things.
47:23Oh, you mean when you called me a loser? Yeah, I remember that.
47:28Here's the thing, Ruby.
47:30When this promotion goes through, I will have women throwing themselves at me and you.
47:37You are nothing.
47:40Dammit, he's right.
47:41Once he's regional director, he'll have his pick.
47:44I need to secure this.
47:46That title, regional director's wife, it has to be mine.
47:52I wasn't thinking straight. I brought something to make up for it.
47:56Mr. Wilson, the new CEO is doing a full audit. She's already fired three people from accounting.
48:01If she digs into those punches...
48:02Calm down.
48:03The chairman himself promoted me. I am unpunchable.
48:10Although, it might not be a bad idea getting the CEO's good graces, just to be safe.
48:16Don't worry, honey. I came prepared.
48:19I brought the best pieces.
48:32Especially this sapphire.
48:36It fell off that old con artist at my parents' party, but I had it appraised.
48:43Worth a fortune.
48:48We can use Jess's sapphire to butter up the new CEO.
48:52Poetic, don't you think?
48:54Well, well.
48:58Maybe you do have a brain in that head of yours.
49:02Help me impress the CEO, and I will make sure that you are well taken care of.
49:14Listen carefully.
49:16No trashy behavior in there.
49:19No cheap comments.
49:22If you embarrass me in front of the CEO, you will regret it.
49:29Okay.
49:32Come in.
49:36Ma'am, I'm Paul Wilson.
49:46Come in.
49:50Ma'am, I'm Paul Wilson, soon to be regional director.
49:54It is such an honor to finally meet you.
49:58A small token of gratitude.
50:00Especially the sapphire ring.
50:02The color is stunning with your sophisticated, uh, presence.
50:08I don't know, Paul.
50:10I run companies.
50:11I don't accept bribes.
50:14Of course, ma'am.
50:16Your integrity is truly admirable.
50:19It's inspiring.
50:21Anything I can do to prove my dedication to the company?
50:25Actually, you know, I think staff morale is rather low.
50:30And you, as a senior executive, should lead by example.
50:34Give me 200 push-ups.
50:36Right now.
50:38Two, two, two hundred.
50:41Is there a problem?
50:42No, uh, no problem at all.
50:46What the hell is this?
50:48Just play along.
50:50Once I've got the promotion, it will all be worth it.
50:53Ma'am, with all due respect, isn't this a little bit excessive?
51:00You're right.
51:01You should join him.
51:04200 jumping jacks.
51:06I'm in a dress and heels.
51:08Think of them.
51:09Just do it.
51:10She can't see us.
51:12We can skip half of them.
51:18Actually, I am counting.
51:21So, if you miss one, I'll just have to add 100 more.
51:46Ma'am, is that sufficient?
51:52Well, your form was really lacking.
51:55But, you know, you two show great promise as a team.
52:01Well, we're partners.
52:03A perfect team.
52:06That's great.
52:07That's awesome.
52:09I would love if you could show me how great your teamwork is one more time.
52:15And slap each other.
52:18Hard enough that I can hear it from here.
52:21That's insane.
52:23We're not really going to slap each other.
52:27You actually hit me.
52:29Suck it up.
52:30It's for our future.
52:32Oh.
52:36Jesus, did you slap me hard enough?
52:38Honey, this is for our future.
52:42Ma'am, are we done now?
52:48You did so well.
52:50But I have one more question for you, Paul.
52:55Because hypothetically, if the CEO happened to be someone that you knew personally,
52:59how would you deal with that information?
53:03Impossible, ma'am.
53:05Someone of your stature.
53:08We couldn't possibly run in the same circles.
53:11Hold on.
53:11That voice sounds familiar.
53:13Like Jess.
53:15Don't be ridiculous.
53:16Jess is a trash collector.
53:18She couldn't possibly be a CEO.
53:21Ma'am, please excuse her.
53:23Sometimes my wife speaks without thinking.
53:26A trashy sister isn't even worth bringing up.
53:29Exactly.
53:30Jess is so far beneath you, it's laughable.
53:32Oh, really?
53:35Because actually...
53:43I think I'm perfectly qualified.
53:47Jess?
53:48What the...
53:50How did you...
53:51Surprised?
53:52I knew something was up.
53:54Those ridiculous demands.
53:58You vindictive...
54:02Real cute.
54:03Sneaking into the CEO's office to play dress up and mess with us.
54:07That is the CEO's chair.
54:08You have no right to be sitting there.
54:10Get out before you bring us both down.
54:12And who are you to give me orders?
54:15Someone with actual authority.
54:19Someone about to be regional director.
54:24Yeah.
54:27About to be.
54:29So that means you're not actually the regional director yet.
54:33Right?
54:37Semantics.
54:39When you're in a position of power like I am,
54:42taking out trash like you is effortless.
54:47My apologies for the interruption.
54:49This $10 million contract requires sign-off from the regional director or above.
54:53I thought it would be...
54:54Here you go, honey.
54:55You're practically regional director already.
54:57Sign it.
54:58Show her what real power looks like.
55:00Sir, that is not...
55:02Not what?
55:03Who else here is about to be regional director?
55:08Oh...
55:08You think she has the authority?
55:11This woman picks through trash for a living.
55:14Please.
55:14She probably can't even read a contract.
55:19Are you blind?
55:21Get out!
55:22Stop wasting my husband's time.
55:30Your promotion hasn't yet been officially announced.
55:33Which means you have no real authority to sign that contract.
55:37What?
55:38Signing a $10 million contract that you haven't even read?
55:43Are you ready to take on the responsibility, financially and legally, for that contract if anything's wrong?
55:50My husband isn't a coward like you.
55:52He has confidence.
55:54Real confidence.
55:56Yeah.
55:57My promotion came directly from the chairman himself.
56:00The announcement is just a formality.
56:05Besides, contracts are standard.
56:07What could possibly go wrong?
56:09Sign it, honey.
56:10Don't let her mind games work.
56:13Last chance, Paul.
56:15If you sign that contract, then there's anything wrong with it.
56:19Anything at all.
56:21You are personally on the hook for $10 million.
56:27Are you still feeling confident?
56:33Are you still feeling confident?
56:42She's a trash collector.
56:44What does she know about corporate contracts?
56:46Yes.
56:48You're right.
56:49Yeah.
56:54Almost had me there.
56:56Good thing my wife actually uses her brain.
56:59Otherwise, you might have gotten to me.
57:03Last time at the restaurant, you only got away with it because you bribed the manager.
57:06But here at CL Group, you're powerless.
57:10Is that so?
57:12Remember this moment when everything goes wrong.
57:15Who do you think you are threatening me?
57:21I'm actually impressed you made it this far into the building.
57:24I cannot believe you still don't understand that I'm...
57:27I figured it out.
57:28You're here for a job interview and you got lost and wandered into the wrong building.
57:34Why don't we help her out, honey?
57:35Give her a job or something.
57:36Sure.
57:38I hear janitorial is hiring.
57:41See, Jess, we're not horribles.
57:43And you can tell people you work at CL Group.
57:45It's actually a step up for you.
57:48Now, get out.
57:50Go find your supervisor and get to work.
57:54I'm already at my post.
58:00Still playing games.
58:03Security!
58:05Throw this bitch out!
58:08Man.
58:13This woman has been impersonating our CEO.
58:16Throw her out of the building now!
58:19And teach her a lesson.
58:21Make sure she understands she's never welcome here again.
58:24See that?
58:25Real power.
58:26Something you're...
