Short filmTranscript
00:00:06I'm excited to put my marketing skills to good use and to grow with the company.
00:00:10Really, it is an honor to be here.
00:00:12You will not be sorry you hired me.
00:00:15I'm counting on that.
00:00:18Is he hitting on me?
00:00:20The marketing assistant, Claire, will get you acclimated.
00:00:25Okay.
00:00:44Hey, I'm Clara.
00:00:46I'll help you get set up.
00:00:47Hey, thanks.
00:00:48I'm Ellie.
00:00:50Sorry, those girls back there, were they?
00:00:53Oh, do not worry about them.
00:00:54They're just trying to figure out who you slept with to land the job.
00:00:57I am highly qualified.
00:00:59Relax.
00:01:00It can be our little dirty secret.
00:01:16He's hot, but he's a broke clerk.
00:01:17Don't waste your time.
00:01:19I mean, it looks like you're all set up, actually.
00:01:24I'll see you.
00:01:24I'll see you.
00:01:31When are you going to quit that menial job?
00:01:34It's embarrassing, son.
00:01:36You're worth millions.
00:01:40Act like it.
00:01:47I'll see you.
00:01:49I'll see you.
00:01:52Thank you, Mr. Preston.
00:01:54Oh, Commonwealth.
00:01:55When no one else is around.
00:01:59You know something?
00:01:59That dress fits you in all the right places.
00:02:05It just needs one little adjustment.
00:02:10There we go.
00:02:12Perfect.
00:02:13Oh, my God.
00:02:13What do I do?
00:02:14Now, you are familiar with our tracking system, right?
00:02:18You've used a CRM before?
00:02:19Yes.
00:02:20Good.
00:02:21But you do understand what your position is here, right?
00:02:29I'm sorry.
00:02:30I'm not feeling well.
00:02:32If you'll excuse me.
00:02:35Eh, she'll come around.
00:03:07I'd ask you how your day went.
00:03:08What?
00:03:09Did you take the beds?
00:03:10Yeah, yeah.
00:03:11You're worse than Mom was.
00:03:16Well, what's wrong?
00:03:17I think the only reason why my boss hired me is because maybe he wants something else
00:03:21from me.
00:03:22Seriously?
00:03:23Already?
00:03:24Yeah.
00:03:25Yeah, and I can't afford to lose this job.
00:03:26We need it.
00:03:27Oh, he really didn't waste any time.
00:03:29Did you at least get some free terrible office coffee?
00:03:33I got something to, uh, tree up.
00:03:40Chimmy.
00:03:41Is this an eviction notice?
00:03:44Are you kidding?
00:03:47Surprise.
00:03:48You are horrible at cheering people up, Max.
00:03:51I'll get a job.
00:03:55No.
00:03:56You're not going to get a job because what I need you to do is focus.
00:04:01Stay in school.
00:04:02I promised Mom that I would take care of you.
00:04:04So I'm going to take care of you, okay?
00:04:09No.
00:04:10Mom, take a hug.
00:04:19Yeah, well, you know, she's got big plans.
00:04:23She's wearing that see-through shirt.
00:04:25Like, come on.
00:04:26Be for real.
00:04:26Like, that's supposed to get his attention.
00:04:32Ellen, come see me.
00:04:34Yes.
00:04:38You want her to see me?
00:04:40Come in.
00:04:40Make a seat.
00:04:41No, no, no, no, no.
00:04:43This side.
00:04:44Why don't you check it out?
00:04:46See how it feels.
00:04:54You're impressive, Ellen.
00:04:56Really, really impressive.
00:05:00Most people in your position would play it safe.
00:05:04But you've got instincts.
00:05:06I'm just doing my job.
00:05:08And doing it beautifully, I might add.
00:05:12I think I should probably, um, get back.
00:05:14Mm-hmm.
00:05:15Oh, Priscil, I can't.
00:05:17I'm sorry.
00:05:19Well, someone just made the biggest mistake of their lives.
00:05:27Oh, my God.
00:05:29It's going to be okay.
00:05:30I'm going to get another job.
00:05:31And it's going to be fine.
00:05:34It's not going to be fast enough, though.
00:05:35I should have just let him.
00:05:38That's a weird pep talk.
00:05:39Are you okay?
00:05:41Yeah, I think I just got fired.
00:05:44Sweetie.
00:05:45Did I get fired?
00:05:47You've been reassigned.
00:05:54The mail room?
00:05:56Welcome to the heart of the company.
00:05:59Well, I didn't do anything wrong.
00:06:01I didn't say you did.
00:06:03Well, then why am I being punished?
00:06:04Just because I didn't let him kiss me?
00:06:06This happens all the time.
00:06:07Mr. Preston is a very powerful CEO, but he's forgiving.
00:06:10Should we all fight your way back up?
00:06:12Not to the people who say no.
00:06:14Look, you can either cry about it
00:06:17or prove that you're better than a corner desk.
00:06:19It's up to you.
00:06:21Oh, right.
00:06:22Ask for, um, Colton.
00:06:25Okay.
00:06:47Doctor, do you going to love my way back?
00:06:47I'll tell you.
00:06:47Bye.
00:06:48Bye.
00:06:50Bye.
00:06:52Bye.
00:07:00I'm Colton. You must be my new employee. I'm your supervisor.
00:07:07You are my supervisor?
00:07:10Yes.
00:07:15Come on, I'll show you the kingdom.
00:07:17Thanks, Mr. Carter.
00:07:18No, just call me Colton or else it makes it seem like I'm going to do your parents' taxes or
00:07:23something.
00:07:28Come on.
00:07:30Look, I know that it's not very glamorous down here.
00:07:33And let me guess, you just cried in the bathroom for 30 minutes and are now silently panicking yourself.
00:07:40But I can promise you things are going to be okay.
00:07:44You seem like you're an expert of crying in bathrooms.
00:07:47Only on Mondays.
00:07:50Okay.
00:07:51Come on.
00:07:52Okay.
00:07:55Well, this is your desk.
00:07:58I promise you it won't bite, usually.
00:08:03Want some water?
00:08:05I'll go get you some water.
00:08:07Okay.
00:08:16All right, we're going to have to calm down.
00:08:19Just breathe.
00:08:20He's just a man with arms and a jawline.
00:08:26The world's most underrated crisis management tool.
00:08:31Hydration.
00:08:31In a paper cup and everything.
00:08:34Yeah, well, I guess that just goes to show how good of a boss I am and how good of
00:08:37a subordinate you are.
00:08:41I'm sorry.
00:08:42That was totally inappropriate.
00:08:43I was kidding.
00:08:44Okay.
00:08:51Ellie, look.
00:08:55I know that it's not anyone's dream to be in the mailroom, but I can tell that you have something
00:09:02special.
00:09:03Everything's going to be okay.
00:09:04Thanks.
00:09:09Of course.
00:09:22So, what were you doing upstairs?
00:09:24I'm a marketing strategist, or I was.
00:09:27Strategist in the mailroom.
00:09:29Preston must be running this place blind.
00:09:32If he had half a brain, he would use social media to increase our stock.
00:09:36That's what I would do, at least.
00:09:38Oh, it sounds like you've actually thought about this.
00:09:41Maybe a little bit.
00:09:43I mean, after all, we're not just a couple of pretty faces.
00:09:46Are we?
00:09:55Another tough one?
00:09:56I got deloaded to the mailroom.
00:10:01Did you do your homework?
00:10:02Yeah, yeah.
00:10:03Whatever.
00:10:05Oh, you also have a doctor's appointment.
00:10:07If I can leave our car, let me take you.
00:10:09What's the point?
00:10:10We can't even afford doctors.
00:10:13I'm going to get us through this.
00:10:14Okay.
00:10:15I'm going to take care of everything.
00:10:16Hey, you trust me, right?
00:10:18Yeah.
00:10:19Promise?
00:10:20Yeah.
00:10:22I trust you.
00:10:23Okay.
00:10:25I've got it.
00:10:26Oh.
00:10:56Oh my God.
00:10:59I'm in so much trouble.
00:11:08I guess blueberry.
00:11:09If you don't like it, just lie to me.
00:11:13You bought me breakfast?
00:11:15Well, don't get used to it.
00:11:16I bribe new employees to like me.
00:11:19That's all.
00:11:42Not bad, huh?
00:11:43No.
00:11:44No, it's perfect.
00:11:46Just like you.
00:11:49What was that?
00:11:50I don't know.
00:11:51I didn't say anything.
00:11:52I thought you said something.
00:11:53Mm-hmm.
00:11:55Well, don't worry about this.
00:11:56I'll just buy you a new one.
00:11:59Let's go do some deliveries.
00:12:00It's the best part of the job.
00:12:03Get to go inside, get some fresh air,
00:12:06and enjoy some awkward elevator rides.
00:12:11It's okay.
00:12:21Quicker than me.
00:12:23I'm trying.
00:12:24Oh, this is where I used to work.
00:12:26Right there.
00:12:28I bet that chair looked a whole lot better with you in it.
00:12:32They made a big mistake.
00:12:36You want to make it a little bit more interesting?
00:12:39How so?
00:12:47That's not a good look.
00:12:48I think.
00:12:49They'll find out.
00:12:51Cheers.
00:12:59What's that say?
00:13:00It says baby goat loose on the third floor.
00:13:03Handle immediately.
00:13:04You're crazy.
00:13:06You are dangerous, isn't you?
00:13:09Don't you think that that's a little risky, isn't it?
00:13:16Oh, my God.
00:13:17Someone's coming.
00:13:17We have to go.
00:13:21Jesus, my stars.
00:13:24I think we're good.
00:13:26Oh.
00:13:27Oh.
00:13:33Oh, my God.
00:13:40Oh.
00:13:44Oh, my God.
00:17:56I know that it's fast and sudden.
00:18:03But yes, I love you.
00:18:07And you don't have to say anything.
00:18:10Because I know it's fast.
00:18:11No, it's not.
00:18:13It's not fast.
00:18:14I feel the same way.
00:18:21You do?
00:18:23Yeah.
00:18:24You do?
00:18:36I needed this.
00:18:41I needed you.
00:18:47Show me.
00:18:49You do?
00:18:54I need you.
00:19:04I need you.
00:19:06I need you.

00:22:00I should be the one making you coffee.
00:22:04No, I don't believe in those barbaric office customs.
00:22:09Getting a lot of work done over here, are we?
00:22:11Can I help you?
00:22:12I'm here to speak with Ellie, not you.
00:22:15Well, with all due respect, she works under me, so.
00:22:22What do you need?
00:22:23Ah, well then, mailboy, deliver my message.
00:22:28Ellie's expected at a mandatory meeting.
00:22:30Just me, not Mr. Carter?
00:22:32Just the marketing team.
00:22:33I'm not on the marketing team anymore.
00:22:35Well, if you want to be someday, then be there.
00:22:39One hour.
00:22:47I thought this was a group meeting.
00:22:49We're a team, aren't we?
00:23:00Let's talk about the mailboy.
00:23:03Inner office romances are frowned upon at Preston.
00:23:07I don't think we should be talking about this right now.
00:23:09I don't think you understand.
00:23:12I own you.
00:23:15I paid you rent, didn't I?
00:23:18Whether you work upstairs, downstairs, on your back or on your knees,
00:23:25you're part of my team.
00:23:27And this is part of your job.
00:23:32Any extracurricular disobedience is grounds for dismissal.
00:23:48Oh.
00:23:51Hey.
00:23:52You okay?
00:23:54Mm-hmm.
00:23:55Well, we shouldn't.
00:23:57If Preston sees.
00:23:58It's fine.
00:23:59Nobody's going to notice.
00:24:00Nobody's out there.
00:24:01We'll make sure there's no drama, no risk.
00:24:04And it's just us.
00:24:05I wouldn't worry about it.
00:24:07No.
00:24:07I got you something.
00:24:11Open it up.
00:24:16Oh, my God.
00:24:18I know it's not a lot, but show a little bit of excitement and respect.
00:24:23This comes from the best vending machine on the third floor.
00:24:27Right now, it's fake, but one day, it'll be real.
00:24:38But for now, it's just a promise to always protect you.
00:24:45Are you serious?
00:24:48I'm very serious about my fake commitments.
00:24:52Well, then I guess I'm yours.
00:25:03Looking for work like a peasant?
00:25:05You don't have to do this.
00:25:07You could have everything.
00:25:08There's nothing we can do.
00:25:10I'm walking.
00:25:11Okay?
00:25:12Okay.
00:25:25Oh, my God.
00:25:26Max?
00:25:27Are you okay?
00:25:27Why didn't you tell me you were out?
00:25:29David, I don't want to stress you out.
00:25:32Breathe out.
00:25:33Shh.
00:25:35Oh, my God.
00:25:36You scared the hell out of me.
00:25:37I'm fine now.
00:25:38Thanks to you.
00:25:39Okay.
00:25:41You're fine.
00:25:42Take this.
00:25:44We cannot keep living like this.
00:25:46There has to be a better way.
00:25:58Hey.
00:26:00You in bed?
00:26:01Obviously.
00:26:03Are you allergic to shirts?
00:26:05Only when I'm trying to be good.
00:26:09Everything okay?
00:26:10I just had a long day.
00:26:14Can I make it better?
00:26:17Can I see you?
00:26:19No filters, no walls, just you?
00:26:21It's a lot of pressure for a Tuesday night, Colton.
00:26:25I mean, you handle pressure pretty well, don't you?
00:26:35Can you take it off?
00:26:36And let me see you.
00:26:38Just one strap.
00:26:40And then stop.
00:26:42Just let me see you.
00:26:43Let me watch.
00:26:44If that's okay.
00:26:46You're already driving me crazy.
00:26:49You know that?
00:26:52It's exactly like how I imagined.
00:26:54Just like this.
00:27:00Can you run your hand down slower?
00:27:04And just kind of feel everything like I would.
00:27:13You're beautiful.
00:27:15Like this.
00:27:16Say that again.
00:27:19You're mine.
00:27:23Every breath, every inch, every sound.
00:27:26I can feel it.
00:27:30You know where to put those inside.
00:27:32There you go.
00:27:33Yes.
00:27:34That's correct.
00:27:34Mm-hmm.
00:27:36Okay.
00:27:36So, that was a new kind of amazing.
00:27:40Yeah, it was.
00:27:41Wasn't it?
00:27:49Max just got picked up for shoplifting.
00:27:51Is he okay?
00:27:53Yeah, but I don't know what he's thinking.
00:27:54We have plenty of food.
00:27:56I gotta go.
00:28:05How is he?
00:28:06Good.
00:28:06I just picked him up from holding.
00:28:08Quartz tomorrow.
00:28:09He didn't even have his inhaler.
00:28:12I've been thinking that if it comes to it, maybe I could pay the bill.
00:28:17No.
00:28:19Hi.
00:28:21Aren't you two really leaning into the drama?
00:28:23Still chasing after the mailroom prints?
00:28:25What are you doing down here?
00:28:27Oh, someone got fired.
00:28:28I'm just grabbing a box for their set of little things.
00:28:32Just a thought.
00:28:33Has Prince Charming ever taken you out on a date that didn't involve postage?
00:28:37Oh.
00:28:39Do better.
00:28:46She's always been like that.
00:28:50Um, a walk by the river after work?
00:28:53I can't tonight.
00:28:54I'm sorry.
00:28:55Let's do a rain check.
00:28:56Okay?
00:28:57I'm sorry.
00:29:00Well, why not tonight?
00:29:03Just some, uh, complicated family stuff.
00:29:10Sit.
00:29:13Do you like horses?
00:29:15Yeah, I love them.
00:29:16Well, I've been thinking a lot about the ranch I'm going to buy one day.
00:29:21And how me and you are going to be cruising into the sunset on horseback every night.
00:29:26No phones, no office politics, no bullshit.
00:29:32Just us.
00:29:33You and me on horseback?
00:29:35It's kind of unreal.
00:29:38Sorry.
00:29:48Why don't you show me or you'd ride.
00:29:50Why don't you show me?
00:30:06Oh my god, no way.
00:30:08Oh my god, no way.
00:30:10Is he ever going to stop?
00:30:15Thank you for paying my bills, but I don't want anything from you.
00:30:19I'm going to pay you back.
00:30:20Every cent.
00:30:21I don't want your money, Ellie.
00:30:23I wanted your attention.
00:30:24Consider this an investment.
00:30:28One that I plan to collect on.
00:30:35Do you really think the mailboy can save you?
00:30:38You don't even know who he is.
00:30:40Excuse me, Mr. Preston.
00:30:42I'm going to get back to work.
00:30:48Hey.
00:30:50You okay?
00:30:51Uh, yeah.
00:30:52Peachy.
00:30:53Can we talk?
00:30:54That's never a good lead-in.
00:30:57It's nothing bad, I promise.
00:30:58It's just, there's something I should have told you a long time ago.
00:31:03Okay, you can tell me, now.
00:31:05I didn't want to lie, because I didn't want to lose you.
00:31:10But, um...
00:31:11Colton, what is it?
00:31:13It has to do with my name.
00:31:17My name, it's, uh...
00:31:18Colton!
00:31:23Colton!
00:31:29There you are!
00:31:31Dad?
00:31:33What are you, what are you doing here?
00:31:34I'm sorry, who?
00:31:35You're needed.
00:31:36Now, we have a meeting upstairs.
00:31:39Alright, but we're in the middle of something right now.
00:31:41You've been in the middle of something for too long.
00:31:51I'm sorry about that.
00:31:53If he ever says anything to you, don't trust him, okay?
00:31:56Okay.
00:31:57We'll talk later.
00:32:03Huh!
00:32:05That was interesting, company.
00:32:12You really have no idea who you're sleeping with, do you?
00:32:16If you know something, just say it.
00:32:19Oh, you poor thing.
00:32:24What aren't they telling me?
00:32:31I don't care how, just distract her.
00:32:34Don't worry.
00:32:36I know exactly how to make her a squirm.
00:32:42Glad you could finally make it.
00:32:44Sorry, I had to deliver your own.
00:32:46You're not a delivery boy.
00:32:48Well, maybe I'm just sick and tired of pretending that your version of success is the only one that matters.
00:32:54Well said, darling.
00:32:56You've always had a flair for dramatics.
00:32:59But let's not pretend this rebellion isn't just performance.
00:33:03We both know you'll do what's expected.
00:33:05Eventually.
00:33:06Now smile.
00:33:08And show your father some respect.
00:33:09You're still a Carrington, after all.
00:33:22Ellie, the reason that I lied to you.
00:33:25There is a good reason for it.
00:33:28There's no good reason to lie.
00:33:30Don't.
00:33:31I'm sorry that I lied to you this whole time.
00:33:34Ellie, if you could just...
00:33:38Why don't you save it for tomorrow, speak from the hour.
00:33:41Okay.
00:33:49Lunch delivery.
00:33:51Hope you're hungry.
00:33:52From the finest takeout in the city?
00:33:53More like from the finest microwave in the building, but...
00:33:57Why did you do all this?
00:33:59Well, you always say that you don't have any free time, so I thought I'd steal a moment.
00:34:05Okay.
00:34:13All right, so we both know that you were a prude in high school.
00:34:15Why don't you tell me something new?
00:34:18I still sleep with my mother's blanket every single night.
00:34:21Seriously?
00:34:22Don't mock the security of memory foam and fleece, okay?
00:34:25I'm not mocking anything.
00:34:27Mm-hmm.
00:34:30It's your turn.
00:34:31Secret for a secret.
00:34:37Wow.
00:34:38Cozy.
00:34:40Didn't realize carbs paired so well with company policy violations.
00:34:45You need anything, Clara?
00:34:47Just came to drop these off.
00:34:48But don't worry, I'll let you two get back to whatever this is.
00:34:55And I'll tell the janitor to bring some Febreze.
00:34:57Oh, great.
00:34:58Well, I'm glad you're keeping warm in that turtleneck.
00:35:06Well?
00:35:08They're getting cozy.
00:35:09It won't be long, no.
00:35:11Good.
00:35:12Break her.
00:35:13By any means necessary.
00:35:16And the contract...
00:35:18is yours.
00:35:20Consider her broken.
00:35:29A promotion?
00:35:31From William?
00:35:38I see you got my offer.
00:35:40What's the catch?
00:35:41No catch.
00:35:42You do good work.
00:35:43I want to reward that.
00:35:45You want to reward me by putting me back under your thumb?
00:35:48I want to put you into a position where your talents can shine.
00:35:59Hey.
00:36:00What's up?
00:36:01He offered me a promotion.
00:36:03That's good, right?
00:36:05No.
00:36:05Not when it comes from him.
00:36:07Okay, well, you know you don't need to go up there and prove anything to anyone.
00:36:11You're already more capable than everyone on that floor.
00:36:16Besides, I think you and I both know that you're a little too good to be bought.
00:36:23Then I'm going to stay right here with you.
00:36:26Good.
00:36:27Does she bite?
00:36:29She's still in the mailroom.
00:36:30Just a little more to break the self-righteous ones.
00:36:34Keep pushing.
00:36:36I want her to say yes.
00:36:48Oh my god, Max.
00:36:52Where's your inhaler?
00:36:53It is.
00:36:54Oh my god.
00:36:55I don't know.
00:36:56Come here.
00:36:56Come here.
00:36:56We have to go.
00:36:57Come on.
00:36:57Come on.
00:36:59Come on.
00:37:01Come on.
00:37:07Hey.
00:37:08Max collapsed last night, so we spent half the night in the ER.
00:37:12Is he okay?
00:37:14Yeah, for now.
00:37:16But I don't know how we're going to pay for this one.
00:37:18Stop.
00:37:28Hi.
00:37:29Is this Piedmont Hospital?
00:37:35Hey.
00:37:36Rough night?
00:37:38And how would you know?
00:37:40We're travels.
00:37:41Sorry about your brother.
00:37:43You know, Colton is full of surprises.
00:37:47He's more than just a mail clerk.
00:37:49What do you mean?
00:37:51Nothing.
00:37:52Just, um, be careful who you trust.
00:38:03Hey.
00:38:03So, I was thinking, my house tonight, I'm cooking.
00:38:08You cook?
00:38:09Bet your ass I cook.
00:38:10What?
00:38:12I guess, only when I'm really trying to impress somebody.
00:38:17Okay.
00:38:18Well then, impress me.
00:38:21I will.
00:38:22Okay.
00:38:22Okay.
00:38:33Hey, Mom.
00:38:34You're still ignoring Nadia's messages.
00:38:36Not very interested, so.
00:38:38That's not your decision.
00:38:40The Carrington name is bigger than your feelings.
00:38:42She's expecting you at dinner next week.
00:38:46I'm not going to be playing along with this.
00:38:49You don't get to opt out of legacy.
00:38:51You've had your freedom.
00:38:52Now it's time to do your part.
00:39:07Oh, my God.
00:39:09It's just a house.
00:39:10No, you live at the Louvre.
00:39:12That's what that is.
00:39:14Come on.
00:39:15I have something to show you.
00:39:16Okay.
00:39:21And what is going on here?
00:39:23Well, I cheated and had a chef prepare most of the food.
00:39:26I'm sorry, you have a chef?
00:39:28No, I actually prepared all of this food myself.
00:39:31I just was trying to be humble.
00:39:33Humble.
00:39:34Let's go.
00:39:35Okay.

00:51:05Sure you want to play it that way?
00:51:10You're not the only one with secrets.
00:51:16You don't know anything about me.
00:51:18Why would be so sure?
00:51:20Fake name, mailroom disguise,
00:51:22inner office romance.
00:51:24Mommy really should have coordinated this better.
00:51:27What'd you just say?
00:51:28You heard me.
00:51:30I just find it interesting how closely she monitors this company's partnerships.
00:51:35Makes you wonder what else she's orchestrating behind the curtain.
00:51:40I could be wrong.
00:51:43Just a thought.
00:51:56Hey, Colton?
00:51:57Hey.
00:51:58Um, look, I need a favor.
00:52:01I need you to look into Preston marketing.
00:52:05Just everything about it.
00:52:07Especially anything that ties to my mom and Clara Goodwin.
00:52:12Okay.
00:52:13I'm on it.
00:52:14Thanks.
00:52:16If they've been lying to me, I'll burn it all down myself.
00:52:25Hello?
00:52:26Hi, Mrs. Anderson.
00:52:28Just calling with Max Anderson's latest results.
00:52:30His response to treatment has improved significantly.
00:52:33Oh my God.
00:52:34Are you serious?
00:52:35He's stable.
00:52:36More than that, he's trending in the right direction.
00:52:39Thank you so much.
00:52:41You look lighter.
00:52:42Good news?
00:52:43Yes.
00:52:44Uh, my brother, he's improving.
00:52:45Happy to hear that.
00:52:46We should start thinking about your future.
00:52:49Real office.
00:52:50Real desk.
00:52:51Real influence.
00:52:53The kind of life someone like you and me deserve.
00:52:58If you're just right here, he can't give you what I can.
00:53:02You know that.
00:53:18What are they planning?
00:53:22Hold on a second.
00:53:23Go back.
00:53:24So Clara's name is listed under a shell company that's tied to one of my mom's private funds?
00:53:29Yes.
00:53:30There's a link, but it's indirect, so Jessica's involvement is buried.
00:53:33Okay, so she's not just meddling with my life.
00:53:35This has got to mean something much bigger.
00:53:37Am I correct?
00:53:39Yeah, maybe.
00:53:40There's something off with the timing of these fund transfers.
00:53:42If we could find the other end of it, then we would know who she's laundering through.
00:53:47Just keep digging.
00:53:47Let me know what you find.
00:53:48Because whoever's involved, I know they're a part of Preston Marketing.
00:53:51Okay, you got it.
00:53:56Let me know what you think.
00:53:57I have to hear what you're gathering from, but that's for me.
00:54:14I don't know.
00:54:14I don't care if you're persistent.
00:54:16I don't know.
00:54:27What is William doing with Colton's mom?
00:54:44Ellie, look, I know you're busy.
00:54:46I know you hate me.
00:54:49And I probably deserve it.
00:54:51I'm sorry I lied to you.
00:54:55About everything.
00:54:56I lied about my name.
00:54:57I lied about where I'm from.
00:55:00But I never lied about the way I feel about you.
00:55:04My name is not Colton Carter.
00:55:08It's Colton Carrington.
00:55:10And my family is, well, they're very complicated.
00:55:15But the way I am with you, that version of me, that's the real version.
00:55:20I had this whole speech figured out earlier.
00:55:23I even rehearsed it in a bathroom mirror.
00:55:25I had all these hand gestures.
00:55:27And it was honestly quite impressive.
00:55:29A lot more impressive than this is going right now.
00:55:31What I'm trying to say is, is that I miss you.
00:55:37The mailroom misses you.
00:55:40The coffee misses you.
00:55:41The stupid little crooked name tag on your desk misses you.
00:55:46Come back to me.
00:55:47Not to the job.
00:55:49But to us.
00:55:55Please.
00:55:58You're lucky that I'm a sucker for sad mailboys.
00:56:02And terrible public declarations.
00:56:12That's not a no.
00:56:15I'd say yes.
00:56:17But they're going to buy me lunch for like the next month.
00:56:22I won't pay for lunch forever.
00:56:23Okay, deal.
00:56:26Okay.
00:56:35Larry's shell company is tied to one of my mom's off-book funds.
00:56:39And transfers spike every time her and William are done having a meeting.
00:56:42Well, then there's this, too.
00:56:45Shows them meeting in person on company property.
00:56:48She's helping them launder money.
00:56:49And they're trying to merge Preston with your family's empire before your father finds out.
00:56:53So they're setting him up.
00:56:55My mom is playing a long con.
00:56:56Claire and William are just the middlemen.
00:56:58What do we do?
00:56:59Well, we can't just drop this at a random boardroom meeting.
00:57:02We're going to have to catch them in the act.
00:57:04What if we bait them?
00:57:06Give them the illusion that they've won?
00:57:09A fake merger agreement.
00:57:11With Chester's name on it.
00:57:16Have you done that before?
00:57:19I had a lot of practice as a teenager.
00:57:21Well, we're going to give this to Claire.
00:57:23She's going to give it to William, and William's going to run it up the chain.
00:57:26They will think it's legit.
00:57:27And once they act, we'll have the cameras ready.
00:57:30Sound good?
00:57:31Are you sure about this?
00:57:33Yeah.
00:57:34I'm not doing this for revenge, Ellie.
00:57:36I'm doing this for us.
00:57:38Do you trust me?
00:57:39Yeah.
00:57:41Let's go.
00:58:04It hatched.
00:58:07This is it.
00:58:09The Carrington handoff.
00:58:11You did well.
00:58:14To new beginnings.
00:58:31So, uh, when do I get to move upstairs?
00:58:34Upstairs?
00:58:36Uh, Clara, you've got talents.
00:58:40Really nice talents.
00:58:42But you are never going to run anything.
00:58:47What?
00:58:49You're a tool.
00:58:51A useful one, but...
00:58:53A tool.
00:58:55You're going to take in orders.
00:58:58Why don't you stick to that?
00:59:00Great work, though.
00:59:22Let's end this.
00:59:26Everything we have leads back to them.
00:59:28Yep.
00:59:29William, Clara, your mom.
00:59:30And the trail runs straight to Preston.
00:59:32We should bring it to my father.
00:59:34He'll know what to do.
00:59:36Do you trust him?
00:59:38I know that he hates being lied to more so than he hates being wrong.
00:59:56Hello.
00:59:57Hey, um...
00:59:58You did cut William loose.
01:00:00Believe me, he's using you, too.
01:00:02Oh, Clara, you mistake relevance for importance.
01:00:05We could go down for this.
01:00:08Honey, try all you want.
01:00:12This is a mess.
01:00:15A solvable one.
01:00:17If we go public, then William and Jessica fall together.
01:00:20It's not enough.
01:00:21There needs to be impact.
01:00:24Dear, the board won't act unless the optics are undeniable.
01:00:30This is a mess.
01:00:32I'll show you.
01:00:33Oh, my God.
01:00:36Well, it's so nice.
01:00:48When you're doing it, you're going to be doing it.
01:00:58Well, as long as you're the one that I get to go on a honeymoon with after.
01:01:07I'm still in the room.
01:01:08Yes, of course.
01:01:10Let's go ruin some lives.
01:01:14So, dinner at the caring.
01:01:17Not just a dinner, a wedding.
01:01:20And I thought that you would be the most interesting plus one.
01:01:28Interesting choice.
01:01:30What happened to the mailroom prints?
01:01:33Fairy tales fade, right?
01:01:37Look, I'm done chasing daydreams.
01:01:40Colton was just a phase, and you were right.
01:01:43I needed to grow up.
01:01:46You continued to surprise me, Ellie.
01:01:50Good.
01:01:59I thought he's doing a great job of doing all of the organizing.
01:02:02That's good.
01:02:03Yeah, everything's coming along very nicely.
01:02:06Let's move up the wedding.
01:02:08Next week.
01:02:11Are you sure?
01:02:12It's time.
01:02:14I'm ready.
01:02:17I'll call the caterer.
01:02:21Okay.
01:02:22Great.
01:02:30He took the bait.
01:02:35Let's finish this.
01:02:37Let's do it.
01:02:40Natty's appearance arrived tonight.
01:02:42Make sure you keep that charming face on.
01:02:44Of course.
01:02:46You've been agreeable lately.
01:02:49Makes me nervous.
01:02:51Well, maybe I'm finally realizing who I'm supposed to be, Mom.
01:02:58Ellie.
01:03:00You know, I've been thinking about something you said earlier.
01:03:02Yeah?
01:03:04You could be running this place.
01:03:07Well, I still could be.
01:03:09Come with me.
01:03:16You've always had something.
01:03:18Drive.
01:03:19Fire.
01:03:20Well, you like to play with fire.
01:03:23Hmm.
01:03:25I always knew that there was a spark between us.
01:03:29Maybe there still is.
01:03:31Or maybe you don't want to lose.
01:03:40Pick me up at seven.
01:03:42And we'll show them all.
01:03:58You wanted a seat at the table, right?
01:04:00The table was a lie.
01:04:02Well, then maybe it's time to flip it over.
01:04:05There's a wedding tomorrow.
01:04:06I think you should come.
01:04:07I'm pretty sure I'm not invited.
01:04:10Now you are.
01:04:16You think you're being clever.
01:04:18No, I'm being thorough.
01:04:19Dad.
01:04:21Dad, listen to me.
01:04:23Everything that you need is on this.
01:04:25What she did.
01:04:26Who she used.
01:04:28Names.
01:04:29Amounts.
01:04:29Everything.
01:04:35And you want me to do what with it?
01:04:37Let me take her down publicly.
01:04:39I can handle it at the wedding.
01:04:41I could make it all happen.
01:04:43And all I need is for you not to stop me.
01:04:48Do it clean.
01:04:50And make sure she never forgets who taught you how.
01:04:58You look like a Bond villain.
01:05:01It's perfect.
01:05:03You sure about this?
01:05:07Not even a little.
01:05:09Let them underestimate me.
01:05:11It's what they've always done.
01:05:18So much shape.
01:05:19I don't know.
01:05:35Are you sure I wasn't supposed to see the bride before the wedding?
01:05:41Relax.
01:05:42I'm not wearing white.
01:05:43And you're about to marry somebody else, actually.
01:05:48I'll be thinking about you the whole time.
01:05:52Mr. Carter, are you really about to have an affair on your wedding?
01:05:57Well, I am your supervisor after all.
01:05:59Yeah.
01:06:01Whatever I say goes.
01:06:07How long until they need you out there?
01:06:12Not long enough.
01:06:29Can you clean up nicely?
01:06:31I try.
01:06:34Come with me after the ceremony.
01:06:36That boardroom seat is all yours if you play your cards right.
01:06:39Oh, well, that's, um, it's very tempting.
01:06:43But I think I like a little chaos with my champagne.
01:06:48Hmm?
01:07:02Let's end this with a bang.
01:07:34You may be seated.
01:07:36We gather here today.
01:07:38So, when do I move upstairs?
01:07:40Hmm?
01:07:41You were never going upstairs.
01:07:43Everything you need for the merger is in there.
01:07:47Excellent.
01:07:48As long as Chester doesn't know.
01:07:50Turn it off now.
01:07:52You knew.
01:07:57How long?
01:07:58Oh, don't be dramatic.
01:07:59It's business.
01:08:00It's betrayal.
01:08:03We're experiencing a minor technical glitch, everyone.
01:08:06It's doctored.
01:08:07It's clearly fake.
01:08:08It's all real.
01:08:10Every last bit of it.
01:08:11Is this a part of the wedding?
01:08:14I mean, are they even getting married?
01:08:16Nadia, listen.
01:08:18This is not my wedding.
01:08:19It never was.
01:08:21I'm sorry.
01:08:23Colton, you can't do this.
01:08:26I'll never forgive you.
01:08:32Everything in that video is real.
01:08:34They used me, but I let them.
01:08:38And now they're going down with me.
01:08:41Get off my property.
01:08:43No!
01:08:45Make sure she stays.
01:08:48Do you think this changes anything?
01:08:50I think it already has.
01:08:53Hasn't it?
01:09:13It doesn't matter anymore.
01:09:17It's over.
01:09:20You're trying to cover it all up, William.
01:09:21It's too late.
01:09:23We're here for the cleanup?
01:09:26No need.
01:09:29I'm not running.
01:09:34So, what now?
01:09:36She runs the company.
01:09:39Where Carrington pulls every dollar out.
01:09:43All in favor?
01:09:48Congratulations, Miss Anderson.
01:09:56Enjoy your 15 minutes.
01:09:57Oh, I will.
01:09:58Right after I scrape your name off the door.
01:10:03Oh, William.
01:10:06Told you you wouldn't be sorry for hiring me.
01:10:15Mind me to never get on your bedside.
01:10:17It's a little too late.
01:10:22No looking.
01:10:23No, this is a prank.
01:10:25I'm taking your fancy new title with me on the way out.
01:10:28It's not a prank.
01:10:29It's a full circle moment.
01:10:31It's very cinematic.
01:10:32Oh, no.
01:10:32This is exactly what I wanted.
01:10:34A nostalgic walk-through workplace trauma.
01:10:37On three.
01:10:38Ready?
01:10:38Mm-hmm.
01:10:39One, two, three.
01:10:43What do you think?
01:10:48The mail room.
01:10:50You really know how to romance a girl.
01:10:54Well, I mean, this is where all the magic started, right?
01:10:57I'm pretty sure the only magic is you knowing how I take my coffee.
01:11:00Yeah.
01:11:01Black, stubborn, and a little bit, uh, bitter.
01:11:04Yep.
01:11:09Well, I figured if I'm going to do this again, I might as well do it the right way this
01:11:12time.
01:11:17A fake ring from my fake mail clerk.
01:11:20It's very on brand.
01:11:21Yeah.
01:11:22But can I say I'm a reformed liar with great taste?
01:11:25Ellie Anderson, would you do me the honor of fake marrying me again?
01:11:33Only if I can take your fake last name.
01:11:42Seriously.
01:11:49Marry me for real.
01:11:53You idiot, of course I will.
01:12:04I knew you'd say yes.
01:12:06No, don't get cocky, mailboy.
01:12:09Okay.
01:12:11I love you.
01:12:12Love you.
01:12:20Love you.
01:12:20Bye.
