00:00:08Hey, this is Richard Allenton. I can't answer the phone right now, so please leave a message.
00:00:14Hey, Grandpa.
00:00:18It's one thing to set me up on a bunch of blind dates with these goody two-shoe women.
00:00:24But to trick me into thinking I'm coming to a business meeting that's actually a blind date, that's low.
00:00:33Let's hope this one's different.
00:00:36I don't even know what to say to this guy.
00:00:39I don't know how to talk to rich people.
00:00:42Be sexy.
00:00:43Darling, just act better than everyone else in the room.
00:00:47And being sexy is easy.
00:00:49Bite your lip, push up the girls.
00:00:52It works every time.
00:00:54Wait, what girls?
00:00:55And don't forget, these rich men get bored easily.
00:00:58So challenge them, be bold, and put them on the spot.
00:01:03I don't think I can do this.
00:01:05The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner I pay you for your mother's surgery.
00:01:11It's your call.
00:01:12The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new
00:01:22AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for
00:01:27Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the
00:01:28code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you
00:01:28steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the
00:01:30sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI
00:01:32tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's
00:01:34new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code
00:01:41for Ellington's
00:01:41Are you going to stare at me all night or be a gentleman and get my seat, big boy?
00:01:45Of course.
00:01:53Sorry, I've been set up with many girls before, but none like you.
00:02:00You're so...
00:02:01Rich?
00:02:03Sexy?
00:02:04Frankly, yes.
00:02:07Sorry, what was your name?
00:02:08Um, Valentina Kingsley.
00:02:12And you are?
00:02:14Blaine Ellington, CEO of Ellington Incorporated.
00:02:18And this is a successful company?
00:02:21It's not ringing any bells.
00:02:25Waiter?
00:02:26Yes, Mr. Ellington.
00:02:27You still have the Chateau Petrus on the shelf, yes?
00:02:31Yes, of course.
00:02:32If so, we'll have two bottles.
00:02:35Uh, it's $60,000 per bottle, sir.
00:02:38You want two?
00:02:40Actually, I'm pretty thirsty.
00:02:43You better bring three.
00:02:45Yeah, right, yes, of course, right away, sir.
00:02:51And what do you do, Valentina Kingsley?
00:02:54I invest.
00:02:56In what?
00:02:58In everything.
00:03:01What am I not investing in?
00:03:04Businesses?
00:03:06Charities?
00:03:08I see.
00:03:09And you live in the city?
00:03:12The city.
00:03:14The hills.
00:03:16My yacht.
00:03:19My private island.
00:03:21I'm everywhere, darling.
00:03:23You're so impressive.
00:03:26So unlike the other girls I've seen.
00:03:30Doesn't surprise me.
00:03:32I'm one of a kind, darling.
00:03:38Um, you've got a little, uh...
00:03:52Kurt?
00:03:53Kurt?
00:03:53What's my manager doing here?
00:03:57Blaine!
00:04:00My business dinner just ended.
00:04:01The presentation for the China branch.
00:04:03Looking good.
00:04:04Amazing.
00:04:04You're the best, Kurt.
00:04:05Well, I just, uh, won't keep you two.
00:04:07Just wanted to say hi.
00:04:10Rose petals for a business dinner?
00:04:12Ended up being a blind date.
00:04:13Ah, classic.
00:04:15All right, well, you two have fun.
00:04:23I've got to be honest with you.
00:04:27You're so unlike any of the girls I've been with.
00:04:30Would you like to come to my place?
00:04:33I can take this chance to get closer to the AI code.
00:04:36Absolutely, darling.
00:04:43Whoa.
00:04:46Welcome to my home.
00:04:48After you.
00:05:04Oh, my.
00:05:16You like what you see?
00:05:18You're getting there, darling.
00:05:21Nothing like the Calvin Klein model I dated, but...
00:05:24Well, then, shall we get started?
00:05:29Uh, not so fast.
00:05:32Okay.
00:05:33A little foreplay?
00:05:35I did not think this through at all.
00:05:37How am I supposed to find the drive when he's trying to suck my face off?
00:05:45Looking for something?
00:05:47Oh, um...
00:05:51I should have known that was your style.
00:05:55Oh, yes, darling.
00:05:58Ugh, I can't believe people are actually into this.
00:06:01I'm not used to being the one tied up.
00:06:02It's usually the other way around.
00:06:09Valentina?
00:06:11Patience, darling.
00:06:12I'm building the suspense.
00:06:15Ah, I see.
00:06:17Ugh, where could it be?
00:06:19Right.
00:06:19And you say guys actually like this?
00:06:23Oh, yes.
00:06:23It's very popular with the manly men in France.
00:06:30How long does it take for something to actually happen?
00:06:37That's...
00:06:38That's new.
00:06:41The painting!
00:06:43Maybe there's a safe behind there.
00:06:45Oh, uh...
00:06:46Sorry, this painting caught my eye.
00:06:49It looks exactly like...
00:06:50The one in my mansion in Sweden.
00:06:54It's where I keep my safe.
00:06:57People actually still add things behind paintings?
00:07:01Thought that was only in the movies.
00:07:03Oh, no, it's quite popular.
00:07:06Where do you hide your luxurious safekeepings?
00:07:11In a super, super, super secret hiding place.
00:07:15Ugh, come on.
00:07:18Now why don't you come over here and get this thing started?
00:07:22Oh, uh, most unfortunate.
00:07:24I'm getting the utmost important business call,
00:07:28and I must take it.
00:07:29Right now?
00:07:30What?
00:07:31What about me?
00:07:33Valentina!
00:07:37Wait!
00:07:38Untie me!
00:07:44Ew.
00:07:46Really, Blaine?
00:07:47What?
00:07:49You and your models.
00:07:52Last night was not a model.
00:07:54I was actually impressed.
00:07:57Did I hear it right?
00:07:59Blaine actually had a date he liked.
00:08:01It was fantastic.
00:08:03The other girls are so boring.
00:08:06But this one,
00:08:08she's a mystery I can't quite crack.
00:08:10I must see her again.
00:08:12Blaine,
00:08:13Blaine,
00:08:13these dates aren't about you having sexy adventures.
00:08:15It's about you finding a wife you can settle down with and running the company.
00:08:22Blaine.
00:08:23Grandfather.
00:08:23Hmm?
00:08:24Listen to him.
00:08:25He's not ready to be the face of Ellington.
00:08:27I am much more qualified.
00:08:29Yeah.
00:08:31I'm done having this conversation with you, dear.
00:08:34No, no, no, no.
00:08:36Look, you do great work right where you are.
00:08:39Right?
00:08:39You weren't meant to be some CEO.
00:08:42No, but Blaine.
00:08:44Blaine will learn in time.
00:08:47Whatever.
00:08:48Have fun with your little girlfriend, Blaine.
00:08:51I have actual work to attend to.
00:08:57Yeah, yeah.
00:08:59Thanks.
00:09:05Hello?
00:09:06How's our plan going, darling?
00:09:11To perfection.
00:09:13She already has Blaine wrapped around her finger.
00:09:16It won't be long until he slips up,
00:09:17and I can step in and take my throne as Ellington's CEO.
00:09:22Brilliant.
00:09:23It's all coming together perfectly.
00:09:26And the VR tech you're developing,
00:09:28it'll be ready in time when I trade the AI code, right?
00:09:30Oh, yes.
00:09:31It'll be ready.
00:09:33Soon we'll be queens of the tech world.
00:09:36Hmm.
00:09:48What's he doing here?
00:09:49Speaking of girls,
00:09:50I think I know who would be perfect as your new assistant.
00:09:54Sorry.
00:09:56I'm fine.
00:09:58Ariel.
00:10:00How does he know my name?
00:10:01You dropped your badge.
00:10:08There you go.
00:10:11Thanks.
00:10:18She's amazing.
00:10:22Are you playing hide-and-seek?
00:10:24Is that where you're late?
00:10:25Can I hide next?
00:10:26No, I was dropping their mama at the hospital.
00:10:29Oh, that was unexpectedly personal.
00:10:31Wait, oh my god, is she okay?
00:10:32Should I bring her a fruit basket?
00:10:34She's just getting some tests done.
00:10:36Oh, thank goodness.
00:10:38Hey, by the way, did you hear?
00:10:40Our new CEO is looking for a personal assistant.
00:10:43Are you going to apply?
00:10:43I'm good where I am.
00:10:45Well, all the girls are applying.
00:10:46Everyone wants to get close to our boss.
00:10:48You're the best employee in our department, Ariel.
00:10:50I think this position is yours.
00:11:01He's gorgeous.
00:11:03I wouldn't mind looking at that hunk of man all day.
00:11:07Attention, everyone.
00:11:09My name is Blaine, and I am the new CEO.
00:11:13I will try my best to live up to my father,
00:11:16but I ask for patience as I adjust to the new role.
00:11:20And since he is adjusting to this new role,
00:11:23I've decided to assign him a new assistant.
00:11:26Not me, not me, not me.
00:11:29Blaine, meet your new assistant, Ariel.
00:11:37All right, everyone, back to work.
00:11:45You look exactly like...
00:11:49Oh, my God, my cover's blown.
00:11:55Kurt described.
00:11:57Clean, organized desk, confident composure.
00:12:02There'd be a pay raise, of course.
00:12:04This could get me closer to finding the code.
00:12:08When do I start?
00:12:09Perfect.
00:12:11First thing I need help with is there's this file.
00:12:13Oh, um, gotta take a phone call.
00:12:16Send it to me in an email.
00:12:21Ariel, he wants to meet you again.
00:12:24Really?
00:12:25Also, I got you a second number.
00:12:28Just click the link to connect it,
00:12:29so from now on, you're the one he'll be calling.
00:12:33Great.
00:12:39New number, huh?
00:12:44Hello?
00:12:45Hello, Ariel.
00:12:46This is Dr. Westphal.
00:12:47We just got your mother's results.
00:12:54It's not what we hoped.
00:12:55So we need to move quickly
00:12:57if we want that experimental procedure to be a success.
00:13:00Okay, I understand.
00:13:02I'll come up with the money for it soon.
00:13:12Oh, perfect timing.
00:13:14I just finished dinner.
00:13:16Mom, you should be in bed.
00:13:18Honey, I'm fine.
00:13:20Besides, you've been working all day.
00:13:21You shouldn't have to cook for yourself.
00:13:23Mom, please.
00:13:24Honey, sit down.
00:13:35The doctor called?
00:13:37He says it's gotten worse.
00:13:39Oh, hush, hush, hush, hush.
00:13:40Hush.
00:13:41None of that talk, okay?
00:13:43Mom.
00:13:44Eat before your food gets cold.
00:13:54I'll be right back.
00:14:02It's time for the second date, darling.
00:14:04Are you ready?
00:14:07Yeah.
00:14:10Mom, I have to leave for work.
00:14:12I'll make it to go.
00:14:30Oh, where am I?
00:14:34Valentina!
00:14:36Blaine!
00:14:38Darling, what is this dreadful place?
00:14:41Do you intend to have me killed?
00:14:42No, not at all.
00:14:44This place is special.
00:14:46Follow me.
00:14:59Hi, Maura.
00:15:00We're almost there.
00:15:01Come on.
00:15:18Wow.
00:15:28Did you look at that view?
00:15:31I bet you bring all your models up here.
00:15:33Just you, actually.
00:15:35I discovered this place after my father died.
00:15:40Your family died?
00:15:41Yeah.
00:15:43And I've been thrown into the CEO position,
00:15:45and I'm a bit in over my head,
00:15:49so I never really get a chance to myself,
00:15:52except when I come here.
00:15:55I'm so sorry.
00:16:03My mom is sick.
00:16:08She needs experimental surgery.
00:16:14So I know it feels to...
00:16:17Want to get away?
00:16:18Yeah.
00:16:21I'm used to getting everything,
00:16:23but this is one thing that money can't buy.
00:16:28I'm so sorry about your mom.
00:16:30Thanks.
00:16:33She's all I've got.
00:16:36I don't want to say goodbye to her.
00:16:47Hey!
00:16:48Who's out here?
00:16:52What's happening?
00:16:55Technically, we're not supposed to be up here.
00:16:57What?
00:16:57Run.
00:16:58Run.
00:17:01Run.
00:17:01Run.
00:17:02Run.
00:17:02Run.
00:17:03Run.
00:17:04Run.
00:17:04Run.
00:17:05Hey!
00:17:08Still.
00:17:15What was that?
00:17:16That was fun.
00:17:17Did Calvin Klein take you on any dates that adventurous?
00:17:20No.
00:17:21I suppose not.
00:17:24I haven't felt this way in a really long time.
00:17:29I feel like...
00:17:31But I need to pay for my mom's surgery.
00:17:36I'd love to.
00:17:40Well, well, well.
00:17:44Martina, what are you doing here?
00:17:46Hmph.
00:17:47I heard you were actually acting like a big boy CEO.
00:17:50Had to see it for myself.
00:17:53Well, that blind date went so well the other night,
00:17:56it got me thinking maybe grandfather was right.
00:17:58Is that so?
00:18:00Blaine's got himself a little girlfriend?
00:18:03That's right.
00:18:04Wow.
00:18:05What's she like?
00:18:06She's funny, mysterious, confident, hardworking.
00:18:11Yeah.
00:18:13Oh, sorry, Mr. Ellington.
00:18:15Is this about time?
00:18:16No, not at all.
00:18:17My sister just came to visit.
00:18:19Martina, this is my new assistant, Ariel.
00:18:23Martina, nice to meet you.
00:18:24Likewise.
00:18:25Glad to see my brother as someone to make sure this launch goes smoothly.
00:18:29Don't you worry.
00:18:30I got this.
00:18:32Well, after you lost the keys to the Maserati,
00:18:34I'm not so sure that you won't lose this new AI tech that we need.
00:18:37I didn't lose the keys to the Maserati.
00:18:39And don't you worry.
00:18:40I've got the codes right here on this drive.
00:18:44And I'm keeping it safe.
00:18:58Glad to hear you're doing that.
00:19:00I have wasted enough time.
00:19:04Now you know exactly where it is.
00:19:06Get it.
00:19:16All right, where's that drive?
00:19:23Are you kidding?
00:19:24There's nothing in here.
00:19:39They're coming in.
00:19:40Crap.
00:19:41How about we celebrate your China contract with a nice glass of whiskey?
00:19:45You don't twist my arm.
00:19:47You don't twist my arm.
00:19:49No, no, no.
00:19:57Oh, yeah.
00:20:02Sarah?
00:20:03Cheers.
00:20:03Don't you guys have that meeting with China right now?
00:20:08Right.
00:20:09Right.
00:20:09Right.
00:20:10After that.
00:20:11Yeah.
00:20:19Whew, that was close.
00:20:26Hey, girlfriend.
00:20:28Can I ask your advice on something?
00:20:30Sure.
00:20:31What's going on?
00:20:32So I have this friend who is having boy problems.
00:20:35Aren't we all?
00:20:36So she has a crush on her boss and she doesn't know what to do about it because of the
00:20:40whole
00:20:41workplace relationship thing.
00:20:42How did she find out I like Blaine?
00:20:44Wait, I don't like Blaine.
00:20:46But he deserves to know though, right?
00:20:48You're going to tell him?
00:20:49I mean, I don't know.
00:20:50Because what if I tell Kurt I like him and he doesn't like me and then it's so totally
00:20:54awkward and so he fires me because it's so totally awkward.
00:20:58Wait, you like Kurt?
00:21:00I gotta go.
00:21:01What?
00:21:02Ring, ring.
00:21:03Oh, I'm getting a call.
00:21:04Ring, ring.
00:21:07Ring, ring.
00:21:08Ring, ring.
00:21:12Ariel.
00:21:14Yes, Mr. Ellington?
00:21:15I need your personal help.
00:21:17Well, I am your personal assistant.
00:21:29I've never gotten a girl a gift.
00:21:31Wow, really?
00:21:33Um, I mean, yeah.
00:21:35First girlfriend, first gift.
00:21:38Checks out.
00:21:39So, I need your help to figure out which you think a woman would prefer.
00:21:55Oh my God, I'm going to be wearing that?
00:21:58Sorry?
00:21:59Uh, your girlfriend's going to be wearing that?
00:22:02Yeah.
00:22:03It's pretty nice, right?
00:22:05Well, I mean, it's option one.
00:22:07Do you think she'll like it?
00:22:11Um, well, what's your girlfriend like?
00:22:13What are her tastes?
00:22:16Um, sophisticated, generous, gorgeous.
00:22:21The whole world slows down whenever she walks into a room.
00:22:27I see.
00:22:30So, keep that in mind.
00:22:32Option two.
00:22:38And that's even more revealing than the first one.
00:22:40Yeah.
00:22:41This is big in Europe.
00:22:43Between you and me, I'm rooting for this guy.
00:22:45Mm-hmm.
00:22:47I see.
00:22:47Do you have anything more modest?
00:22:52Hmm.
00:22:53Modest?
00:22:54Yeah.
00:22:55That seems to be the style I've been seeing these days.
00:22:59With the rich folk, at least.
00:23:02You know, now that you say it, I think I do have something.
00:23:11Aha!
00:23:14What do you think?
00:23:16I think she'd really like that.
00:23:25Can I have a margarita?
00:23:28You can't be serious, darling.
00:23:31She'll have a friend 75 with Konya.
00:23:33Flora, what are you doing here?
00:23:35Making sure you look the part.
00:23:37You want to make the money for your dear mother, don't you?
00:23:40Yes, more than anything.
00:23:42Then you need to keep your eyes on the prize.
00:23:46We need to get our hands on that code fast.
00:23:49Once I do, I can fund your mother's surgery.
00:23:51But until then, we're in this together.
00:23:54Yes?
00:23:55Yeah.
00:23:57Excellent.
00:23:59Now, what's your game plan?
00:24:01Make him even more vulnerable and get him to tell me where the code is.
00:24:06And how do you suppose you'll do that?
00:24:10Um, be nice?
00:24:15Your ignorance is both cute and annoying.
00:24:19No.
00:24:20A man like Blaine Ellington is going to become vulnerable from two things.
00:24:26Drinking with him.
00:24:28And going to bed with him.
00:24:31Right.
00:24:33I can do that.
00:24:35I hope so.
00:24:36Because he's coming this way.
00:24:40Get the code soon, honey.
00:24:43For your mother.
00:24:45Okay.
00:24:47Oh!
00:24:48And darling, have fun.
00:24:53All right.
00:24:56Valentina.
00:24:59How are you?
00:25:00Wonderful, love.
00:25:02I've been looking forward to this all day.
00:25:04Is that so?
00:25:05Indeed.
00:25:07I was so distracted.
00:25:09It affected my croquet score.
00:25:12Oh, no.
00:25:12Distracted over little old me.
00:25:14Yes.
00:25:14I simply must know everything about you.
00:25:18Well, what would you like to know?
00:25:21Everything.
00:25:22Well, I don't know about everything.
00:25:25It might take some time for me to open up.
00:25:27Well, maybe after a few drinks.
00:25:31Only if you can keep up.
00:25:33See, I don't really start talking until after a lot of drinking.
00:25:37Oh, no.
00:25:38Well, here goes nothing.
00:26:00You know, my sister is implying today that I should tell someone where my new AI code is
00:26:07because I forget stuff.
00:26:10Are you forgetful?
00:26:12Well, I mean, yeah.
00:26:15Can you actually believe I lost the keys to a Maserati?
00:26:19Really?
00:26:20Yeah.
00:26:21It cost me $10,000 just to get them re-keed.
00:26:26Which is why I should probably tell someone in case I do forget.
00:26:32So maybe I should tell you because you're so awesome and trustworthy.
00:26:38Well, if you'd like, go ahead.
00:26:41I'll tell you, but first...
00:26:47I'm gonna hit the men's room.
00:26:54This is it.
00:26:55All I need to do is ask him where the code is and my mission is over.
00:26:59Nothing can stop me now.
00:27:01Ariel?
00:27:03Except my ex-boyfriend.
00:27:07I don't know what you're talking about, darling.
00:27:09I don't know this...
00:27:11Ariel.
00:27:13No, no, no, no, no.
00:27:14You are definitely Ariel.
00:27:17But what are you doing in a place like this?
00:27:20You're poor.
00:27:22Fine.
00:27:23Please just leave, Max.
00:27:25It's Max-a-Million now.
00:27:27Because I'm Max and I make millions.
00:27:30Whatever.
00:27:31Please.
00:27:32I'm begging you.
00:27:33Look at you.
00:27:34You look so much better.
00:27:36You look...
00:27:38Oh, what's that word?
00:27:40Rich?
00:27:41Please.
00:27:42I don't know if you've been keeping up with my life lately,
00:27:44but I've become very rich.
00:27:47Yes.
00:27:48You've sent me 50 messages about it.
00:27:50I had to block your number.
00:27:51Oh.
00:27:52Yeah, that's right.
00:27:53Please, I'll do whatever you want, okay?
00:27:55I just...
00:27:57How about a kiss for old time's sake?
00:28:00You know, Ariel, sometimes I reminisce on our poor days together.
00:28:05This isn't happening.
00:28:07Do you not remember when we'd go and get Taco Tuesday
00:28:10at that Mexican restaurant and eat unlimited discount tacos?
00:28:15I'm very...
00:28:18Don't you have a girlfriend?
00:28:19Yes, he does.
00:28:21A situationship at best.
00:28:23Let go, Max.
00:28:25Nobody walks away from Maximilian Fletcher.
00:28:28Get off of it.
00:28:30Blaine Ellington?
00:28:32Max Fletcher.
00:28:33Maximilian?
00:28:34What are you doing with that peasant?
00:28:37That's my girlfriend you're talking about.
00:28:39Blaine Ellington, getting my sloppy seconds.
00:28:56This isn't over.
00:29:01Come on, Regina.
00:29:06Just stay away from my man, skink.
00:29:09He's actually trying to.
00:29:13Are you okay?
00:29:15Yeah, I think so.
00:29:17We gotta get out of here.
00:29:19This isn't good.
00:29:28Care to explain this?
00:29:30I assume the article does a good job.
00:29:33Getting into a physical altercation in a bar?
00:29:39What are you, a child?
00:29:41I'm not a child, but he started it.
00:29:43Well, I don't care who started it.
00:29:46Ellington is a company based on family values.
00:29:51I was out with my girlfriend trying to uphold those family values.
00:29:55No, no, no, no, no, no, don't, don't, don't, don't play the girlfriend card, okay?
00:29:58The onus is you on this, pal.
00:29:59Well, you know, maybe, maybe, maybe your sister was right.
00:30:04Maybe you're too much of a risk, even though you say you've settled down.
00:30:08Either way, I just hope all this boils over next time we talk.
00:30:14What would your father think?
00:30:33Unleasy lies the head that wears a crown.
00:30:36What is that?
00:30:37Some family motto I'm not aware of?
00:30:39It's Shakespeare, you idiot.
00:30:42What are you doing here?
00:30:43You don't want any of this.
00:30:45You don't know what I want.
00:30:48Uh, booze and bimbos?
00:30:50Or does page one of the paper say something different?
00:30:53She's not a bimbo.
00:30:56Then don't treat her like one.
00:30:59Treat her like...
00:31:00Dad treated Mom.
00:31:05How do you mean?
00:31:07Bring her completely into your life.
00:31:10Let her know everything about you.
00:31:13I'm trying to.
00:31:14Just last night, we were sharing everything with each other.
00:31:17How can you share more?
00:31:19Behind most men's success is a strong woman.
00:31:22I will.
00:31:24I'm gonna get close to this woman.
00:31:26You'll see.
00:31:28And you will be like two lovely berries molded onto one stem.
00:31:33Shakespeare.
00:31:35Yeah?
00:31:37Ow.
00:31:47Martina, how are you?
00:31:50How am I?
00:31:52Yeah, how are you?
00:31:54I am annoyed.
00:31:55Time is running out, understand?
00:31:57Mm-hmm.
00:31:58We chose you because we thought you could get the job done.
00:32:00But now I'm not so sure.
00:32:04Wait.
00:32:06Oh my God, do you have feelings for him?
00:32:08What?
00:32:09No.
00:32:10I hope not.
00:32:11Because you have four days to get that code?
00:32:14Or you can say bye to Mommy.
00:32:17No.
00:32:17Other than that...
00:32:18I am fine.
00:32:20Thanks for asking.
00:32:32Happy hump day, bestie!
00:32:34It's Tuesday, Hannah.
00:32:37Oh, right!
00:32:38Hey, how's your guy trouble coming?
00:32:39Better.
00:32:41And worse.
00:32:43That sounds super complicated.
00:32:45You have no idea.
00:32:47Aaron?
00:32:48Can you come in here?
00:32:49I'll be right there.
00:32:51Good thing you've got work to distract you.
00:32:53Good thing.
00:33:00You have the file for the new China branch?
00:33:03Yeah.
00:33:12Long night.
00:33:15You know what?
00:33:18Let's forget about the file.
00:33:29Let's just close our eyes for, um, ten minutes.
00:33:41That's an order.
00:33:43Okay.
00:33:51This is nice.
00:33:54Yeah.
00:33:56This should be like an everyday thing.
00:34:00Mm-hmm.
00:34:04Good morning.
00:34:05Another beautiful day in Ellington.
00:34:07Let's get it.
00:34:08Woo!
00:34:08Oh, Hannah.
00:34:14Well, I guess that's over.
00:34:19Um.
00:34:20Well, everything should be there.
00:34:24I can't even concentrate on work right now.
00:34:27Oh?
00:34:28Why?
00:34:29Well, I don't know if you heard, but...
00:34:34Oh, my.
00:34:35That's, uh, quite a scene.
00:34:37Well, I'm glad you weren't there.
00:34:40I can imagine.
00:34:42Yeah, I just...
00:34:43I hope my girlfriend doesn't think that that's my kind of lifestyle.
00:34:49You should just talk to her.
00:34:50And be honest.
00:34:52Yeah.
00:34:53I'm gonna call her.
00:34:55What?
00:34:58Yeah, can you be in the room when I do it?
00:35:00Uh, you want me in the room?
00:35:03Yeah.
00:35:04Maybe you could, you know, listen to her voice and read her.
00:35:07Tell me if she sounds upset.
00:35:11Uh.
00:35:12Yeah.
00:35:12I don't know if I feel comfortable.
00:35:14Oh, gosh.
00:35:15She makes me so nervous.
00:35:17I'm sure you make her nervous, too.
00:35:19Shit, shit, shit.
00:35:21Uh-oh.
00:35:23Uh-oh.
00:35:25Think, Ariel, think.
00:35:26Uh, I'm gonna be sick.
00:35:29Bathroom!
00:35:36Hello, darling.
00:35:38Hey, Valentina.
00:35:41How are you?
00:35:43Thriving, my dear.
00:35:44How are you feeling?
00:35:46I'm a little banged up, but I've been worse.
00:35:49You should have been with me in my partying days in Ibiza.
00:35:52I was an absolute heathen.
00:36:00Well, I'm glad to hear you're feeling all right.
00:36:03Uh, I was worried.
00:36:07No need, darling.
00:36:09I'm actually at the spa right now.
00:36:12I wanted to know if I get to see you again.
00:36:17You will.
00:36:18Very soon.
00:36:25Uh, sorry.
00:36:28Can I help you?
00:36:30I couldn't hear you.
00:36:31It kind of sounded like...
00:36:32Uh, sorry.
00:36:34Eduardo is calling me for my hot stone massage.
00:36:38Must be going.
00:36:39Okay, uh, sure.
00:36:41See you.
00:36:42Ta-ta!
00:36:49Community theater.
00:36:51Hmm.
00:36:52Character.
00:36:53I'm rehearsing.
00:36:56We're a mystery.
00:36:59I'll, uh, send you the dates.
00:37:02I'm not in the theater.
00:37:05That's fair.
00:37:21Mom, I'm home.
00:37:22Hi, honey.
00:37:23How was your day?
00:37:27It was...
00:37:28not boring.
00:37:30How was yours?
00:37:32It was wonderful.
00:37:34I did laundry,
00:37:35watched some soaps.
00:37:38Um, what are you cooking?
00:37:39I told you I was gonna cook tonight.
00:37:42Well, you weren't home yet,
00:37:43and I wanted to go ahead and get started
00:37:45so your co-worker could have some, too.
00:37:47My co-worker?
00:37:49Hello, darling.
00:37:58Flora.
00:37:59What are you doing here?
00:38:01I was going to call you
00:38:02about a few work questions,
00:38:04but I was, uh,
00:38:05in the neighborhood
00:38:07and thought I'd drop in.
00:38:10Flora mentioned that you got a job promotion.
00:38:12You didn't say anything about a job promotion.
00:38:15I guess it slipped my mind.
00:38:19Well, you two don't mind me.
00:38:21Go ahead and have your work talk,
00:38:22and I'll be ready soon.
00:38:34What are you doing here?
00:38:36Checking in to see what progress was made last night.
00:38:39I, um,
00:38:41I got close to finding out where he hit the drive,
00:38:44but I...
00:38:44But close doesn't pay the bills, does it?
00:38:47I'll get you the drive soon, I promise.
00:38:49Well, it sounds like the clock is ticking fast.
00:38:54You're not getting attached.
00:38:56What?
00:38:57No, of course not.
00:38:59Good.
00:39:00I was worried you were developing feelings for the man.
00:39:05Dinner's ready.
00:39:07Deeply sorry, darling.
00:39:09Urgent business must be taking off.
00:39:11Oh, um, okay, well,
00:39:13it was nice meeting you.
00:39:15You too, darling.
00:39:16Mwah.
00:39:20Tick tock.
00:39:33Alright, I need ways to fix my image after that bar scandal.
00:39:38Any ideas?
00:39:41Inner rehab.
00:39:42Too tacky.
00:39:44Go volunteer in a third world country?
00:39:47Mmm, too obvious.
00:39:49Record an apology video for social media?
00:39:51I post it there.
00:39:52Too cringe.
00:39:58Adopt an orphan.
00:39:59Now that is something.
00:40:01Ariel, how good are you at raising kids?
00:40:03Um, let's think of other options.
00:40:08What about a charity ball?
00:40:10Yes, that's it.
00:40:11That's the one.
00:40:12I like that.
00:40:13I like it a lot.
00:40:15Isn't she good?
00:40:17Phenomenal.
00:40:18Well, really, we wouldn't be here had I not appointed her.
00:40:21As your assistant.
00:40:22So, really, this kind of all comes back to...
00:40:24Got it.
00:40:25Wait.
00:40:26What charity would it be for?
00:40:28How about unknown disorders and illnesses?
00:40:31I'd love that.
00:40:32Let's get it rolling.
00:40:34I'll start right away.
00:40:36Ariel,
00:40:37you've become an integral part of our company,
00:40:40and I want to have you seated at our VIP table.
00:40:43Oh, my gosh.
00:40:44I'm honored.
00:40:45Me,
00:40:46my family,
00:40:47Kurt,
00:40:48my girlfriend, Valentina,
00:40:49and you.
00:40:50Good job, Ariel.
00:40:57Let's see how it looks.
00:40:58Come out.
00:41:02It fits perfectly, darling.
00:41:07Wow.
00:41:08Stunning.
00:41:12Next, I'll have to get you a dress.
00:41:15A dress?
00:41:17What's the occasion?
00:41:19Well, I'm hosting this charity ball,
00:41:22and I would love for you to be my date.
00:41:25I love a good ball.
00:41:28But I must check my schedule, darling.
00:41:31Is this for that computer thingy
00:41:33you were talking about the other day?
00:41:35My new AI tech.
00:41:37It's going to revolutionize the world.
00:41:40Ah, yes.
00:41:42We got interrupted.
00:41:43You were going to tell me something important.
00:41:47What were you going to say?
00:41:49It's not really that necessary.
00:41:53You don't trust me?
00:41:55I do.
00:41:56This is my first major launch as Ellington CEO,
00:42:00and I just want it to go well.
00:42:03But I thought I was special.
00:42:06You are.
00:42:07I just...
00:42:08Well, you know,
00:42:10if you don't trust me...
00:42:12Wait.
00:42:17So you do trust me?
00:42:19Mm-hmm.
00:42:29So Blaine's going to tell me
00:42:30the super special secret.
00:42:34Mm-hmm.
00:42:37Where is it?
00:42:38It's here.
00:42:40In the mansion.
00:42:45It's here?
00:42:51Mm-hmm.
00:42:59Where in the mansion?
00:43:03It's...
00:43:08Yeah.
00:43:11Now?
00:43:15Okay.
00:43:16I'll be there.
00:43:20Where are you going, darling?
00:43:26They need me to be on this call with China,
00:43:28so...
00:43:29I have to leave.
00:43:31You have to leave right now, darling?
00:43:33Yeah.
00:43:34Now.
00:43:35I'm sorry.
00:43:37Pick this back up again soon, huh?
00:43:40Yeah.
00:43:44Martina was right about you.
00:43:46I should start sharing more with you.

00:53:55ARIEL!
00:53:57Blaine!
00:53:58There you are. I've been looking everywhere for you.
00:54:01Here I am.
00:54:02Have you seen Valentina?
00:54:05No, I don't think so.
00:54:06About your height, flowy hair, no glasses?
00:54:10Um, no. No, I don't think so.
00:54:13In fact...
00:54:14What?
00:54:16Nothing. It's ridiculous.
00:54:19I better say hi to those guests, but if you could find her for me, that would be great.
00:54:25I'll get right on that.
00:54:26Thank you. Bye.
00:54:35Just go out there and hype Blaine up so he can deliver his speech.
00:54:39Then we're back to finding the drive.
00:54:42Okay.
00:54:44He can do this.
00:54:47Oh, hi, ARIEL!
00:54:51Uh, you must be mistaken, love. I don't know this ARIEL you speak of.
00:54:57Yeah, okay. ARIEL.
00:55:01No, seriously. My name is Valentina Kingsley and I'm a very wealthy socialite.
00:55:07Oh, I get it. It's like one of those improv games or something.
00:55:11No, no, no, no, no game. My name is...
00:55:15Valentina.
00:55:15Who else should I be?
00:55:17Just be yourself.
00:55:19I'm the Queen of England.
00:55:23You can really tell it's me?
00:55:25Well, yeah. But, I mean, I can be very observant.
00:55:30Really?
00:55:31Mm-hmm.
00:55:32Okay, well, Hannah, it's very important that this stays between us.
00:55:36Okay. Can I ask why?
00:55:37Uh, well, it's really complicated.
00:55:41Um, but you have to promise me you won't tell anybody about this.
00:55:45Can we make it a pinky promise?
00:55:48Yeah, sure.
00:55:50Aw!
00:55:50Well, good luck with whatever this is.
00:55:57Yeah, thanks. I'm gonna need it.
00:56:21Ah, there you are, darling.
00:56:22Ah, Valentina. I'm so glad to see you.
00:56:25Look at this place. I haven't seen a ball as elegant as this since the King of Spain's birthday.
00:56:31I'm glad it lives up to your approval.
00:56:32Of course. You're doing a speech, I see.
00:56:35Well, I'm not much of a speech giver.
00:56:39They're gonna eat you up, darling.
00:56:42You make me feel so confident.
00:56:44I need to be looking at you when I give my speech.
00:56:53Of course.
00:56:55Okay, perfect.
00:56:57Well, I saw a fellow philanthropist outside. I must go speak with her.
00:57:00Uh, Valentina, I was thinking...
00:57:03Maybe tonight I could show you the AI code.
00:57:09Yes. I would love to see what you've been working on.
00:57:13Great.
00:57:14Where would this be taking place? In the study, or...?
00:57:18Upstairs. Hidden in a very high-tech safe.
00:57:22Ah, I see.
00:57:25You actually inspired my security team to create a new hiding space for it.
00:57:32What the heck did I say?
00:57:33I'll give you a hint.
00:57:35If you were to look for it, you'd be staring at the most beautiful thing in the world.
00:57:41I'll let you get back to socializing.
00:57:45Good luck, darling.
00:57:48Good luck, darling.
00:58:10Excuse me.
00:58:11What are you doing in here?
00:58:15You look lost.
00:58:17I am, darling.
00:58:19I am lost.
00:58:21I've been to a lot of mansions, but this one is big.
00:58:26Grandfather.
00:58:27Yes?
00:58:27This is Valentina Kingsley, Blaine's new girlfriend.
00:58:32Oh, yes, yes.
00:58:34From the front page of the Times.
00:58:36Yes, I've heard a lot about you.
00:58:38Hope it was all good things.
00:58:40Well, I haven't seen him smile quite as much as he does now since his father passed.
00:58:47And I trust that Blaine is treating you respectfully, like a lady.
00:58:54He is.
00:58:55Well, it was a good thing that we were up here to find you.
00:58:58If it had been during Blaine's speech, no one would know you're here.
00:59:03Right.
00:59:05Good thing.
00:59:07Shall we return to the party?
00:59:09Yes, we shall.
00:59:11Very nice meeting you, Miss Kingsley.
00:59:14You too, sir.
00:59:35You seem quiet. Is everything all right?
00:59:38Everything's fine, darling.
00:59:41Hey, Valentina.
00:59:42Hannah, I have a girl question for you.
00:59:48Oh my God, for the love of God.
00:59:51You clearly have a crush on Hannah.
00:59:52Just ask her to dance.
00:59:54You just met me, you can already tell?
00:59:56Yes.
00:59:58You read me like a book.
01:00:00I see what Blaine sees in you.
01:00:02You're really inquisitive.
01:00:03In fact, I'll go butter her up for you.
01:00:07Would you? That would be great.
01:00:10Dude.
01:00:15Hannah, I need a favor.
01:00:17Anything.
01:00:18When Blaine is giving his speech, I'm gonna step away.
01:00:21If anyone asks, I'm not feeling well.
01:00:23And Ariel is going to help Valentina get some medicine.
01:00:28Got it.
01:00:30Oh, and Kurt's gonna ask you to dance.
01:00:33Really?
01:00:35Sorry.
01:00:36When?
01:00:37Tonight.
01:00:39Oh right, it's a ball.
01:00:53It's time, brother.
01:00:54You ready?
01:00:55As ready as I'll ever be.
01:01:01Thank you for coming tonight.
01:01:04It means a lot.
01:01:05Of course.
01:01:07You're gonna be amazing.
01:01:15Ladies and gentlemen.
01:01:16I wanna thank you all so much for coming out here tonight.
01:01:19It is my great honor and privilege to introduce my good friend, your CEO of Ellington Incorporated, Mr. Blaine Ellington.
01:01:34Good evening, everyone.
01:01:37I want to, uh, before we get started, thank two people who, without their help, none of this would have
01:01:43happened tonight.
01:01:44My assistant Ariel and my girlfriend, Valentina.
01:01:52I'm not sure where they are right now, but I want to thank them for having my back.
01:02:02Hi, Anna.
01:02:04Oh, hi.
01:02:06You haven't, uh, seen Valentina around, have you?
01:02:09I wanted to try to find her so she can watch Blaine's speech.
01:02:12Valentina is sick, and Ariel was helping her get medicine.
01:02:17Oh, okay.
01:02:21Um, you look, you look really pretty, by the way.
01:02:25Thanks.
01:02:27You look really pretty, too.
01:02:50All right, time to find this code.
01:03:11Blaine mentioned something I said?
01:03:14The heck did I say?
01:03:18The painting's good.
01:03:32The painting's good.
01:03:34So, tonight, I'm pledging $10 million to help research cures for illnesses and disorders unknown.
01:03:43Thank you all for coming.
01:03:45And I hope to see you on the dance floor.
01:04:07I'm sorry, Mom.
01:04:08I'm going to help you.
01:04:12I was going to help.
01:04:14I'm going to help you.
01:04:28I'm sorry.
01:04:29I'm sorry.
01:04:30I'm sorry for having problems.
01:04:32I know.
01:04:32Thank you all for being on my lap.
01:04:37I was sorry.
01:04:40I'll give you hints. If you were to look for it, you'd be staring at the most beautiful thing in
01:04:45the world.
01:04:49He wasn't talking about the painting. He was talking about me.
01:05:10He was talking. He was talking. He was talking. He was talking. In other words, he was talking about the
01:05:37paper.
01:05:49Okay, think Ariel.
01:06:03What could the numbers be?
01:06:05It couldn't be our first date, could it?
01:06:07It couldn't be our first date, could it be our first date, could it be our first date?
01:06:38I'll give it to you after the ball.
01:06:40Or you could give it to me now.
01:06:44Flora?
01:06:49What are you doing here?
01:06:51I have a way of being places I'm not supposed to be.
01:06:54Just like you, apparently.
01:06:58The code, darling.
01:07:04The future.
01:07:06In the palm of my hand.
01:07:09I was beginning to think you didn't have it in you.
01:07:13Blaine's a good man.
01:07:16You're awful.
01:07:17He's rich, darling.
01:07:18He'll get over it.
01:07:20My mom?
01:07:22And her surgery?
01:07:23I've been accused of many things.
01:07:26But I always keep my word.
01:07:29Now, go and celebrate.
01:07:31You deserve it, darling.
01:07:33Come on.
01:07:40Come on.
01:07:59Balancina, hi darling, there you are, how are you feeling, stronger than the rains in the
01:08:05Amazon, darling, excellent, care to dance, certainly, well, well, well, well, look at the happy couple,
01:08:25how did you get in, oh, I have my ways, we lied about our names on the guest list, anyway,
01:08:35I just came here to congratulate you on your little events, you need to leave, actually, I don't think I
01:08:42do, because I don't think you know who your little girlfriend is, she's Valentina Kingsley, no, no,
01:08:49no, there is no Valentina Kingsley, what, if only your little assistant had assisted you
01:08:59in researching her, you know, it's funny, I haven't actually seen her all night,
01:09:05Blaine, don't listen to him, what is he talking about, yeah, she may have fooled everyone in here,
01:09:13but an ex-boyfriend never forgets a butt, Ariel,
01:09:40this whole time, you've been Valentina, that's right, this whole time, you pretended to care
01:09:47about me, but you're, she's just a liar, and worse, she's poor, why, yes, Ariel, but why,
01:10:00I'm so sorry, Ariel, Ariel, wait, how embarrassing, you know, I looked into you, you're in so much
01:10:13debt, that it's surprising, that you can even rent the Lambo, that you drove here, how preposterous,
01:10:19if anybody looks into that, it will be a complete waste of time, ew, you're poor,
01:10:32Regina, you're my hero, thanks, sometimes I gotta just, gotta tell him, you know,
01:10:51Ariel, what are you smiling about, I mean,
01:10:54come on, this proves it, right, he's a joke,
01:10:59no, he's your brother, Martina, he's a liability, Richard, and you are giving him the company with
01:11:05the luxury of not having to deal with this shit show, because you won't be alive much longer,
01:11:09oh, well, don't bet on that, you know, you've got a lot of nerve talking to me like this kid,
01:11:17you've got a lot of nerve letting this ship go down when the lifeboat is right in front of you,
01:11:22I should be running this company, or, is this what success looks like to you?
01:11:32Look, I'm not poor, I don't want to hear it, I do not want to hear it, I promise you,
01:11:37you lied to me, not only did you lie to me, but you embarrassed me in there, that is fair,
01:11:47Regina!
01:11:49Regina!
01:11:53Regina!
01:11:55Regina!ites.
01:12:10That was a disaster
01:12:14I just don't understand
01:12:17Why would she go through all that?
01:12:20I don't know
01:12:21But
01:12:23These scandals are exhausting
01:12:26Yeah
01:12:27I don't think I'll be dating anytime soon
01:12:32Why
01:12:35I got a lot to think about
01:12:38What do you mean?
01:12:40I mean
01:12:41We may have to take the company in a complete different direction
01:12:44If we're in a game back
01:12:45The public's trust
01:12:47You can't be serious
01:12:49Oh?
01:12:53Something better happen sooner
01:12:55I guess much worse
01:12:59Did she want anything from you?
01:13:02I don't know, Martina
01:13:03Nothing valuable?
01:13:05Martina, I said I don't

01:15:23People walk in and out of my office, having no idea what's in the room with them.
01:15:29Of course, I won't be able to enjoy too much longer, since my programmer is going to pick it up
01:15:35tonight.
01:15:36I guess I just feel bad.
01:15:38To get what you want in life, sometimes you have to do bold things.
01:15:42Break the rules a little.
01:15:46I guess.
01:15:48Ask any CEO, and they'll agree, including your little boy toy.
01:15:54Blaine would never do anything like that.
01:15:56Well, anyway, speaking of money, let's get that surgery paid for, shall we?
01:16:03What?
01:16:04All I need is your wiring info, and I can send it on over.
01:16:08I trust that the original estimate hasn't changed?
01:16:12I'm sorry, you haven't paid for the surgery yet?
01:16:17No, that's why we're here, isn't it?
01:16:22Darling!
01:16:47All right.
01:16:49One more drink and we'll start packing up my things.
01:16:54Deal. One more.
01:17:00Anna.
01:17:01Hi, Mr. Ellington. May I come in?
01:17:02Sure. Come on in.
01:17:05Hi, cutie.
01:17:09Care for a drink?
01:17:10Oh, no. I stopped drinking on the job ages ago.
01:17:13Wait, what was that?
01:17:14Mr. Ellington, I have a delivery for you.
01:17:17From who?
01:17:19Ariel.
01:17:22From who?
01:17:24Ariel.
01:17:25I don't want it. Take it back.
01:17:27She said you might say that, but she said that it was very, very important.
01:17:32How important?
01:17:35I don't know, but she did say that it was something so important that she only trusted me to deliver
01:17:40it, so it must be a big deal.
01:17:57Oh, my God.
01:17:58Oh, my God.
01:17:59Ew! What's happening?
01:18:02What's going on? What does this mean?
01:18:21Oh, Flora?
01:18:22Yes, darling.
01:18:23Your appointment had to leave early.
01:18:25I asked if they wanted to schedule, but they said no.
01:18:28I didn't have any appointments scheduled for today.
01:18:31What was the name?
01:18:34Valentina Kingsley?
01:18:55You're rich.
01:18:56You'll get over it.
01:18:58Darling.
01:19:13Oh, what's going on? What does this mean?
01:19:20Thank you for everything.
01:19:27Hannah, did you want to help me with that thing?
01:19:37Can you please get the hell out of my seat?
01:19:46Lane, there's no easy way for me to say this, but it's time.
01:20:00But it's time to celebrate.
01:20:12You are going to regret this.
01:20:14I promise you that.
01:20:20Jeez, what did you do?
01:20:22I don't know, girl, but the way she wears that dress, she can step on me any day.
01:20:30See, I knew you could do it.
01:20:32I knew it.
01:20:34You know, your dad would be so proud of you.
01:20:48Dr. Westfall.
01:20:49Oh, hi, Ariel.
01:20:51Is surgery over? How did it go?
01:20:52Yes, we just finished.
01:20:54There were complications.
01:20:56Complications?
01:20:56Yes, but we were able to work through them, and your mother's going to be just fine.
01:21:02Really?
01:21:03Yeah, really, yes.
01:21:04In fact, they're wheeling her back into her room right now.
01:21:06She's going to need to rest for a few hours, but when she wakes up, she's going to feel better
01:21:10than she has in a long time.
01:21:12I can't thank you enough.
01:21:14I'm happy to help.
01:21:27Thank you very much.
01:21:54Come in, come in!
01:21:57Welcome!
01:22:03Ariel!
01:22:05Mom, why didn't you get out of bed?
01:22:07The doctor said to stay in after surgery.
01:22:09I know, I know, but I saw this cute guy through the window and I got kind of excited.
01:22:17Are you hungry, thirsty?
01:22:19No, thank you, but thank you.
01:22:20Oh, thank you.
01:22:22Sit down, make yourself comfortable.
01:22:24Mom, do you mind giving us some privacy?
01:22:27Oh, of course.
01:22:31I'll just be right over here, don't mind me.
01:22:41I'm so, so sorry.
01:22:43I, uh, I understand why you did it.
01:22:49And you gave me the drive back, so there's no need to apologize.
01:22:52Thank you for everything.
01:22:56I don't even know where to start.
01:23:01I'm not looking for an apology.
01:23:04You're not?
01:23:05No.
01:23:07See, I'm still CEO and I need an assistant.
01:23:11And you're kind of the best in town.
01:23:16I accept.
01:23:18And, uh, you're still looking for a girlfriend?
01:23:25Well, if you're open to it, I'd love to apply.
01:23:43I love you, Valentina.
01:23:45I mean, Ariel.
01:23:48That's gonna take some getting used to.
01:23:51There aren't any starry rooftop views here.
01:23:54But this is my special place.
01:23:58It's even better.
