00:12:41yeah
00:12:50yeah
00:13:25Wow, that dress fits you perfectly.
00:13:29How did you know my size?
00:13:31My grandfather used to work at a carnival.
00:13:34I could guess your weight too, but I'd rather just buy a dress for you.
00:13:41This room must have cost a fortune.
00:13:43Yeah, they tend to comp the room when you own the hotel.
00:13:53I'm used to my wine coming in a box.
00:13:57You are one of a kind and a supporter.
00:14:00No one has ever said that to me, Sebastian, where I'm from.
00:14:48I'm used to my wife.
00:18:40What?
00:18:41Happy hour.
00:18:42Teenies on me.
00:18:43Teenies?
00:18:45Martinis.
00:18:46Teenies to bikinis.
00:18:48Oh.
00:18:50That's funny.
00:18:51Yeah.
00:18:52What'd you say we get out of these wet clothes and into a dry martini.
00:18:59Are all your pickup lines martini-based?
00:19:03Yeah.
00:19:03We're going to be right back.
00:19:07We need to talk.
00:19:08We need to talk.
00:19:09Ruby, I didn't see you on my schedule.
00:19:12Oh, okay.
00:19:13I'm pretty sure I don't need to be on your schedule because I'm your wife.
00:19:17Ex-wife.
00:19:18What do you need?
00:19:19What's the problem?
00:19:20I'm still unhappy with the divorce terms.
00:19:23How can you be unhappy?
00:19:25It's fair.
00:19:25I paid you more than half.
00:19:28I still want you.
00:19:30No baby voice, Ruby.
00:19:33Okay, we're through.
00:19:35Fine.
00:19:36Clearly you don't want me anymore, but I do know that you want me to sign before the
00:19:39merger.
00:19:40The merger has nothing to do with you.
00:19:42Hmm.
00:19:43What if I wanted to have something to do with me?
00:19:45You are entitled to none of that.
00:19:47We'll see about that.
00:19:49You need to get out of here before I call security.
00:19:51You wouldn't dare.
00:19:58You need to go.
00:19:59Come on.
00:19:59Out the door.
00:20:01Out the door.
00:20:08Hey there.
00:20:10Hey, sorry.
00:20:11I'm wiped.
00:20:12I know that you overheard Ruby yelling at me.
00:20:16It's none of my business.
00:20:17It's over between her and I.
00:20:20She does not think so.
00:20:24So, would you like to have dinner with me?
00:20:27I'm not really hungry.
00:20:30You sure about that?
00:20:34I don't think it's a good idea.
00:20:37Look, I know that we've both been under a lot of stress.
00:20:40We can just keep it simple.
00:20:41Have some good food, take our mind off things.
00:20:44No pressure.
00:20:45He's right.
00:20:46We're both under a lot of stress.
00:20:47But I can't put my stress on him.
00:20:50So, dinner?
00:20:51Keep it simple.
00:20:52Keep it simple.
00:21:02Keep it simple.
00:21:05This is simple.
00:21:08You're worth it.
00:21:12I'm worried about the merger.
00:21:17You too.
00:21:18I'm not worried about you closing it.
00:21:20I'm worried about us.
00:21:22Look, it's almost a done deal.
00:21:24All eyes are on you.
00:21:26With this and your divorce, don't you worry that this will make the company think you're unfit?
00:21:30Unfit for what?
00:21:32The merger is just money.
00:21:34And I have money.
00:21:35But I don't have love.
00:21:39And I want to be with you.
00:21:43I don't know.
00:21:46Why are you so hesitant?
00:21:48I don't know if I can tell him.
00:21:52What's going on?
00:21:53My mom is cancer.
00:21:58She has cancer.
00:21:59And I just need to focus on work right now because her bills are mounting up.
00:22:04You know I can take care of that for you.
00:22:05No, Sebastian, that's not why I'm telling you.
00:22:08I don't want your charity.
00:22:10My mom always taught me to earn everything I get.
00:22:16Well, she sounds like a strong woman.
00:22:18She's the strongest woman I know.
00:22:20I admire you.
00:22:22I don't need to be admired.
00:22:24I need to be understood.
00:22:27Understood.
00:22:29I think we should slow down a little.
00:22:32What are you talking about?
00:22:34Maybe just be friends.
00:22:37I don't think I could just be friends with you.
00:22:40I don't think I can be anything more.
00:22:54I see you.
00:22:57What?
00:22:58I see you.
00:22:59You're a rising star of this company.
00:23:01I am just trying to work here.
00:23:03I don't need any distractions.
00:23:05Let me guess.
00:23:06Your job's a joke.
00:23:07You're broke.
00:23:08Your love life's the O.A.
00:23:10It's like you're always stuck in second gear.
00:23:13It hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year.
00:23:21No.
00:23:24Babe.
00:23:25Come on.
00:23:25Now.
00:23:28Release the attention.
00:23:34Maybe this is for the better.
00:23:36I have to get Sebastian to end this.
00:23:38This is the only way.
00:23:41Uh, yeah.
00:23:43That's the spot.
00:23:44That's what I'm talking about, girl.
00:23:56Oh.
00:23:57Sorry, Mr. Sebastian.
00:23:59Hey, Sebastian.
00:24:00Don't worry.
00:24:01We're off the clock.
00:24:02Yeah.
00:24:07This is hot.
00:24:09Don't ever touch me again.
00:24:17Playing hard again?
00:24:18I like that.
00:24:20Bruno Leike.
00:24:23You big stud.
00:24:25You got this.
00:24:26She's yours.
00:24:27Two can play this game.
00:24:30I'll be there for you.
00:24:37Hey.
00:24:38I'm sorry about...
00:24:40There's nothing to be sorry about.
00:24:42We're both adults.
00:24:43You don't owe me anything.
00:24:45He was just being...
00:24:46I don't care about him.
00:24:49I just...
00:24:50I don't know.
00:24:50I thought that you were different.
00:24:52I...
00:24:52I have to let this happen.
00:24:54You know what?
00:24:55I think you're right.
00:24:57I think that we should just be friends.
00:25:00No.
00:25:02More like work colleagues.
00:25:07Because I had hoped that we were going to build something together.
00:25:10But my life, my business wasn't built off hope.
00:25:13It was built off hard work.
00:25:15Sebastian.
00:25:16No, and I was blinded by what I thought was such an amazing person.
00:25:21But the reality is you're just like everyone else.
00:25:26And you're just after my money.
00:25:29Smashing an island.
00:25:37How about we finish where we started?
00:25:39Get off.
00:25:40What about all that break room talk?
00:25:41I thought I told you never touch me again.
00:25:44Let's pretend I didn't hear that.
00:25:46Get off me, Bruno. I'm not interested.
00:25:48Don't be that interested.
00:25:51Don't be that interested.
00:25:57Don't regret this.
00:26:03Tell me everything.
00:26:06It was terrible what I did, but this merger was so important to Sebastian.
00:26:11I couldn't risk losing it for him.
00:26:13You are never going to lose it for him.
00:26:14I can't be a distraction to him.
00:26:16Maybe he needs a distraction.
00:26:19What did you do?
00:26:22I almost kissed Bruno.
00:26:25The aggressive guy?
00:26:27He only did it to make Sebastian forget about me so he could think about the merger.
00:26:31I hope you know what you're doing.
00:26:37I wish we had met in college.
00:26:40Things would be so different.
00:26:47Kate, I don't know how to fix this.
00:26:49Girl, you can't fix being in love.
00:26:54What do you think Sebastian's doing right now?
00:27:03What is wrong with you?
00:27:04I mean, you have everything.
00:27:06And even after this merger, you'll have even more.
00:27:10You can have any woman you desire.
00:27:15Boy, don't ask I am humble.
00:27:22You'd give it all up and be with her, wouldn't you?
00:27:27Well, if you love her, then you should just go to her.
00:27:33What do you have to drink in this dump?
00:27:35Ruby.
00:27:36What are you doing here? Come in.
00:27:38I'm sorry. I was a cranky bitch earlier.

00:30:17vanessa
00:30:21people in my position have a very hard time with dating everyone only seems to want one thing for
00:30:26me and that's why i have to be protective i've been blinded by love before
00:30:32ruby that obvious huh she's um bitch
00:30:38yeah and she also could put this hold on people and i didn't realize it till much later that she's
00:30:44just a gold digger and she never loved me she only loved my bank account
00:30:49and that's why i tend to be defensive

00:39:27bruno lombardi
00:39:28he has been
00:39:29all over me
00:39:30and it's starting to weird me out
00:39:32you said bruno lombardi
00:39:34john lombardi's son
00:39:39john lombardi runs a crime family
00:39:41yes
00:39:42and bruno is quote unquote
00:39:44heir to that throne
00:39:47a crime family
00:39:49yeah
00:39:49your uncle had some running with them years ago

00:39:58i think he got fired today
00:40:00what if he blames me for everything
00:40:01kids today
00:40:03they always want to blame somebody else for their
00:40:05issues
00:40:05they can't take responsibility
00:40:07but not my baby girl
00:40:12the lombardi crime family accused of
00:40:14racketeering drugs
00:40:15human trafficking
00:40:17apparently he's still running
00:40:19the crime family from prison

00:56:03Mom?
00:56:06Mom?
00:56:20Hello?
00:56:21Who is this?
00:56:22I'm your mother.
00:56:23She will stay safe if you follow my everywhere.
00:56:26I'll text instructions to this phone.
00:56:28If you alert the authorities, your mother will be killed.
00:56:32I'm coming for you, Mom.
00:56:37This is the address?
00:56:40Vanessa.
00:56:42Glad you made it.
00:56:43Looks like you brought your little boyfriend, hmm?
00:57:05I'll do the questioning.
00:57:07I'll do the questioning.
00:57:09That's what people with guns get to do.
00:57:12We could have been a great team, but you had to blow it off.
00:57:15I'll do it all for some tramp.
00:57:18Just tell me why.
00:57:19Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:57:20I always hated guys like you, Sebastian, bootstrap guys.
00:57:25That's why I'm going to love bleeding you dry for everything you worked for.
00:57:31I want your entire fortune.
00:57:34You son of a bitch.
00:57:36Calm down, Sebastian.
00:57:39If you don't want to end up under the sea.
00:57:46Fine.
00:57:49For Teresa.
00:57:51We just need to know that she's alive.
00:57:59Mom!
00:58:00It's okay.
00:58:02Mom, if it's okay, if it's okay.
00:58:06Boo, boo.
00:58:08There's your proof of life.
00:58:10Transfer the money to this address using this phone.
00:58:16Come on.
00:58:21I'm so sorry that this is happening.
00:58:23This is all my fault.
00:58:29It's going to wipe you out.
00:58:31It doesn't matter.
00:58:33As long as you and your mother are safe.
00:58:37I can always make my money back, but I need you.
00:58:39I need you by my side.
00:58:46Ka-ching.
00:58:48Thanks for the money.
00:58:49But you didn't really think I'll let your mom go, did you?
00:59:03All right.
00:59:06Ruby, you killed him.
00:59:09Oh, oopsies.
00:59:10I'm such a klutz.
00:59:13Guess I won't be sharing that money after all.
00:59:17What, honey?
00:59:19You play chess.
00:59:20You know the pawns always die.
00:59:23Hands up!
00:59:27Why are you doing this?
00:59:28I gave you everything.
00:59:30Why?
00:59:31Because you left me.
00:59:33Nobody leaves me.
00:59:35I get everything I've always wanted.
00:59:38You know exactly why.
00:59:42When I met you, you were nothing.
00:59:45The only reason you married me was for my family name.
00:59:48For my clout.
00:59:49You used me to climb the social ladder.
00:59:53Then once you got to the top, you dropped me.
00:59:55And what you think this whore can replace me?
00:59:59You're wrong.
01:00:00I married you for what I thought was out of love.
01:00:03But then I quickly realized that all you ever cared about was material shit.
01:00:08And I tried to prove to you that we can't have it all.
01:00:10We could.
01:00:13Spare me, Mr. Perfect, please.
01:00:15I really can't.
01:00:19Hmm.
01:00:24No, no.
01:00:29Oopsies.
01:00:30Sorry, my little mouse.
01:00:31It won't happen again.
01:00:33Ruby, you can fix all of this.
01:00:35All you need to do is let Teresa go.
01:00:39Fix this?
01:00:40Yes.
01:00:42This is beyond repair, my dear husband.
01:00:45Revenge, retribution, whatever you want to call it.
01:00:48I finally have the power.
01:00:51Fuck, you bitch!
01:00:56Most dads give their girls jewelry, but not my dad.
01:00:59I used to think guns were scary, but in the right hand, they're quite beautiful.
01:01:05We could have been great, Sebastian, but you had to go ahead and ruin it all.
01:01:10Shut the fuck up, Ruby!
01:01:14I'm going to kill you both.
01:01:15And when the police get here, they'll find me laying on the ground, covered in blood, screaming,
01:01:20Help me!
01:01:22Help me!
01:01:24And I'll blame it on that, mafia moron.
01:01:30Drop it!
