00:00:09Hey, 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.
00:00:50Bite 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.
00:00:59So challenge them.
00:01:00Be 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.
00:01:14The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new
00:01:25AI 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
00:01:29code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you
00:01:30steal 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
00:01:31tech, 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
00:01:42Are 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?
00:02:05Frankly, yes.
00:02:07Sorry, what was your name?
00:02:08Um, Valentina Kingsley.
00:02:13And you are?
00:02:14Blaine Ellington, CEO of Ellington Incorporated.
00:02:18Hmm, and 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.
00:02:43Better bring three.
00:02:45Yeah, right, yes, of course, right away, sir.
00:02:51And what do you do, Valentina Kingsley?
00:02:55I invest.
00:02:57In what?
00:02:59In everything.
00:03:00What am I not investing in?
00:03:04Businesses.
00:03:06Charities.
00:03:09I see.
00:03:10And you live in the city?
00:03:12The city.
00:03:14The hills.
00:03:16My yacht.
00:03:19My private island.
00:03:22I'm everywhere, darling.
00:03:23You're so impressive.
00:03:27So unlike the other girls I've seen.
00:03:30Hmm.
00:03:31Doesn't surprise me.
00:03:32I'm one of a kind, darling.
00:03:37Um, you've got a little, uh...
00:03:51Kurt?
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.
00:04:05You'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?
00:05:19You're getting there, darling.
00:05:21Nothing like the Calvin Klein model I dated, but...
00:05:24Well, then, shall we get started?
00:05:28Uh, not so fast.
00:05:33Okay.
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...
00:05:50Ah.
00:05:52I 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.
00:06:03It'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.
00:06:17Where could it be?
00:06:19Right.
00:06:19And you say guys actually like this?
00:06:23Oh, yes.
00:06:24It'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...
00:06:51The one in my mansion in Sweden.
00:06:54It's where I keep my safe.
00:06:56Huh.
00:06:57People actually still hide things behind paintings?
00:07:01Thought that was only in the movies.
00:07:03Oh, no.
00:07:04It's quite popular.
00:07:06Where do you hide your luxurious safekeepings?
00:07:11In a super, super, super secret hiding place.
00:07:15Oh, come on.
00:07:18Now, why don't you come over here and get this thing started?
00:07:21Oh, uh...
00:07:23Most unfortunate.
00:07:24I'm...
00:07:25I'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!
00:07:39Untie me!
00:07:44Ew.
00:07:46Really, Blaine?
00:07:47What?
00:07:49But you 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.
00:08:02It was fantastic.
00:08:03The other girls, they're so boring.
00:08:06But this one, she's a mystery I can't quite crack.
00:08:10I must see her again.
00:08:12Blaine, these dates aren't about you having sexy adventures.
00:08:16It's about you finding a wife you can settle down with and running the company.
00:08:23Grandfather.
00:08:24Hmm?
00:08:24Listen to him.
00:08:25He's not ready to be the face of Ellington.
00:08:27I am much more qualified.
00:08:31I'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?
00:08:40Yeah, you weren't meant to be some CEO.
00:08:43No, but Blaine.
00:08:44Blaine will learn in time.
00:08:47Whatever.
00:08:49Have fun with your little girlfriend, Blaine.
00:08:52I have actual work to attend to.
00:08:54Well, yeah, yeah, yeah, thanks.
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,
00:09:18and I can step in and take my throne as Ellington's CEO.
00:09:23Brilliant.
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.
00:09:48What'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.
00:10:10There you go.
00:10:11Thanks.
00:10:19She's amazing.
00:10:22Are you playing hide-and-seek?
00:10:24Is that where you were 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?
00:10:33Should 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.
00:10:45But 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.
00:11:08Attention, 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,
00:11:17but 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.
00:11:27Not 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?
00:12:10Perfect.
00:12:11First thing I need help with is there's this file.
00:12:14Oh, 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?
00:12:26Also, 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 if 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.
00:13:13Oh, 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.
00:13:39Hush, hush, hush, hush.
00:13:40Hush.
00:13:41None of that doc, okay?
00:13:43Mom.
00:13:44Eat before your food gets cold.
00:13:47Okay.
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.
00:14:13I'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.
00:14:48Bye.
00:14:59We're almost there.
00:15:01Come on.
00:15:17Wow.
00:15:28Did you look at that view?
00:15:31I bet you bring all your models up here.
00:15:33Just you, actually.
00:15:36I discovered this place after my father died.
00:15:40Your family, darling?
00:15:42Yeah.
00:15:43And I've been thrown into the CEO position,
00:15:45and, uh, 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.
00:15:56I'm so sorry.
00:16:03My mom is sick.
00:16:08She needs experimental surgery.
00:16:14So I know it feels to...
00:16:16want to get away.
00:16:19Yeah.
00:16:21I'm used to getting everything.
00:16:24but this is one thing
00:16:25that money can't buy.
00:16:28I'm so sorry about your mom.
00:16:30Thanks.
00:16:34She'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?
00:16:53What's happening?
00:16:55Technically,
00:16:55we're not supposed to be up here.
00:16:57What?
00:16:57Run.
00:17:06Hey!
00:17:09Still!
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.
00:17:21No, I 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.
00:17:35I'd love to.
00:17:40Well, well, well.
00:17:44Martina,
00:17:44what are you doing here?
00:17:46I heard you were actually acting like a big boy CEO.
00:17:51Had to see it for myself.
00:17:53Well,
00:17:54that blind date went so well the other night,
00:17:56it got me thinking
00:17:57maybe grandfather was right.
00:17:59Is 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,
00:18:08mysterious,
00:18:09confident,
00:18:10hardworking.
00:18:11Yeah.
00:18:13Oh,
00:18:14sorry,
00:18:15Mr. Ellington.
00:18:15Is this about time?
00:18:16No,
00:18:17not at all.
00:18:17My sister just came to visit.
00:18:19Martina,
00:18:20this is my new assistant,
00:18:21Ariel.
00:18:23Martina,
00:18:23nice to meet you.
00:18:24Likewise.
00:18:26Glad to see my brother as someone
00:18:27to make sure this launch goes smoothly.
00:18:29Don't you worry.
00:18:30I got this.
00:18:32Well,
00:18:32after you lost the keys to the Maserati,
00:18:34I'm not so sure that you won't lose this new way.
00:18:36I 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,
00:19:16where's that drive?
00:19:23Are you kidding?
00:19:25There's nothing in here.
00:19:39They're coming in.
00:19:40Crap.
00:19:42How about we celebrate your China contract
00:19:44with a nice glass of whiskey?
00:19:45You don't twist my arm.
00:19:47You don't twist my arm.
00:19:49No,
00:19:50no,
00:19:50no,
00:19:53no.
00:19:54Oh,
00:19:57yeah.
00:20:02Sarah?
00:20:03Cheers.
00:20:03Don't you guys have that meeting with China right now?
00:20:09Right.
00:20:09Right.
00:20:09Right.
00:20:10After that.
00:20:11Yeah.
00:20:20That was close.
00:20:26Hey,
00:20:27girlfriend.
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
00:20:38and she doesn't know what to do about it
00:20:40because of the whole workplace relationship thing.
00:20:42How did she find out I like Blaine?
00:20:44Wait,
00:20:45I 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,
00:20:50I don't know
00:20:50because what if I tell Kurt I like him
00:20:52and he doesn't like me
00:20:53and then it's so totally awkward
00:20:55and so he fires me
00:20:56because it's so totally awkward.
00:20:58Wait,
00:20:58do you like Kurt?
00:21:00I gotta go.
00:21:02What?
00:21:02Ring, ring.
00:21:03Oh,
00:21:04I'm getting a call.
00:21:06Ring, ring.
00:21:07Ring, ring.
00:21:08Ring, ring.
00:21:10Ring, ring.
00:21:12Ariel.
00:21:14Yes,
00:21:14Mr. Ellington?
00:21:15I need your personal help.
00:21:17Well,
00:21:18I am your personal assistant.
00:21:29I've never gotten a girl a gift.
00:21:31Wow,
00:21:32really?
00:21:33Um,
00:21:34I mean,
00:21:35yeah,
00:21:36first girlfriend,
00:21:37first gift.
00:21:37Checks out.
00:21:39So,
00:21:40I need your help
00:21:41to figure out
00:21:41which you think
00:21:42a woman would prefer.
00:21:55Oh my God,
00:21:56I'm going to be wearing that?
00:21:58Sorry.
00:21:59Uh,
00:22:00your girlfriend's
00:22:01going to be wearing that?
00:22:01Yeah,
00:22:03it's pretty nice,
00:22:04right?
00:22:05Well,
00:22:06I mean,
00:22:06it's option one.
00:22:07Do you think she'll like it?
00:22:10Um,
00:22:11well,
00:22:12what's your girlfriend like?
00:22:13What are her
00:22:15tastes?
00:22:17Um,
00:22:18sophisticated,
00:22:19generous,
00:22:20gorgeous.
00:22:21The whole world
00:22:22slows down
00:22:23whenever she walks
00:22:24into a room.
00:22:28I see.
00:22:30So,
00:22:31keep that in mind.
00:22:32Option two.
00:22:38And that's even more
00:22:39revealing than the first one.
00:22:40Yeah.
00:22:41This is big in Europe.
00:22:43Between you and me,
00:22:44I'm rooting for this guy.
00:22:45Mm-hmm.
00:22:46I see.
00:22:47Do you have anything more
00:22:51modest?
00:22:52Hmm.
00:22:53Modest?
00:22:54Yeah,
00:22:55that
00:22:56seems to be the style
00:22:57I've been seeing these days.
00:22:59With the rich folk,
00:23:01at least.
00:23:02You know,
00:23:03now that you say it,
00:23:04I 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,
00:23:29darling.
00:23:31She'll have a friend
00:23:3275 with Konya.
00:23:33Flora,
00:23:34what are you doing here?
00:23:35Making sure you look the part.
00:23:37You want to make the money
00:23:39for your dear mother,
00:23:40don't you?
00:23:41Yes,
00:23:41more than anything.
00:23:42Then you need to keep
00:23:43your eyes on the prize.
00:23:46We need to get our hands
00:23:47on that code fast.
00:23:49Once I do,
00:23:49I can fund your mother's surgery,
00:23:51but until then,
00:23:52we're in this together.
00:23:54Yes?
00:23:55Yeah.
00:23:57Excellent.
00:23:59Now,
00:24:00what's your game plan?
00:24:01Make him even more vulnerable
00:24:03and get him to tell me
00:24:04where the code is.
00:24:06And how do you suppose
00:24:07you'll do that?
00:24:08Um,
00:24:11be nice?
00:24:15Your ignorance is both cute
00:24:17and annoying.
00:24:19No.
00:24:20A man like Blaine Ellington
00:24:23is going to become vulnerable
00:24:24from 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!
00:24:49And darling,
00:24:50have fun.
00:24:54All right.
00:24:56Valentina.
00:24:59How are you?
00:25:00Wonderful, love.
00:25:02I've been looking forward
00:25:03to this all day.
00:25:04Is that so?
00:25:05Indeed.
00:25:07I was so distracted.
00:25:09It affected my croquet score.
00:25:11Oh, no.
00:25:12Distracted over little old me.
00:25:14Yes.
00:25:15I simply must know
00:25:17everything about you.
00:25:18Well,
00:25:19what would you like to know?
00:25:21Everything.
00:25:22Well,
00:25:23I don't know about everything.
00:25:25It might take some time
00:25:26for me to open up.
00:25:27Well,
00:25:29maybe after a few drinks.
00:25:31Only if you can keep up.
00:25:33See,
00:25:34I don't really start talking
00:25:35until after
00:25:35a lot of drinking.
00:25:37Oh, no.
00:25:39Well,
00:25:39here goes nothing.
00:25:40I don't really start talking.
00:25:45Oh, man.
00:25:46Oh.
00:25:48Oh.
00:25:49Oh.
00:25:49That's really bad.
00:25:51Let's stop.
00:25:52That's not an act.
00:25:54That's funny.
00:25:55Let's stop.
00:25:56What?
00:26:00You know,
00:26:01my sister
00:26:02is implying today
00:26:03that I should tell someone
00:26:05where my new AI code is
00:26:07because I forget stuff.
00:26:09And...
00:26:10Are you forgetful?
00:26:13I mean,
00:26:14yeah.
00:26:15Can you actually believe
00:26:17I lost the keys
00:26:18to a Maserati?
00:26:19What?
00:26:20Really?
00:26:20Yeah.
00:26:21It cost me $10,000
00:26:24just to get them re-keyed.
00:26:26Which is why
00:26:27I should probably tell someone
00:26:30in case
00:26:31I do forget.
00:26:33So,
00:26:33maybe I should
00:26:34tell you
00:26:35because you're so awesome
00:26:36and trustworthy.
00:26:38Well,
00:26:39if you'd like,
00:26:40go ahead.
00:26:41I'll tell you.
00:26:42But first...
00:26:48I'm gonna hit the men's room.
00:26:54This is it.
00:26:55All I need to do
00:26:56is ask him where the code is
00:26:57and 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
00:27:08what you're talking about, darling.
00:27:09I don't know this...
00:27:11Ariel.
00:27:12No, no, no, no, no.
00:27:14You
00:27:15are definitely Ariel.
00:27:17But what are you doing
00:27:19in a place like this?
00:27:20You're poor.
00:27:22Fine.
00:27:23Please,
00:27:24just leave, Max.
00:27:25It's Maximilian now.
00:27:27Because I'm Max
00:27:28and 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.
00:27:37You look...
00:27:38Oh, what's that word?
00:27:40Rich.
00:27:41Please.
00:27:42I don't know
00:27:42if you've been keeping up
00:27:43with my life lately,
00:27:44but I've become very rich.
00:27:47Yes.
00:27:48You've sent me 50 messages
00:27:49about it.
00:27:50I had to block your number.
00:27:51Oh.
00:27:52Yeah, that's right.
00:27:53Please, I'll do
00:27:54whatever you want, okay?
00:27:55I just...
00:27:57How about a kiss
00:27:58for old time's sake.
00:28:00You know, Ariel,
00:28:02sometimes I reminisce
00:28:03on our poor days together.
00:28:06This isn't happening.
00:28:07Do you not remember
00:28:08when we'd go
00:28:09and get Taco Tuesday
00:28:10at that Mexican restaurant
00:28:12and eat unlimited
00:28:14discount tacos?
00:28:15Listen, I don't bear...
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
00:28:26from Maximilian Fletcher.
00:28:28Get off of it.
00:28:31Blaine Ellington?
00:28:32Max Fletcher.
00:28:33Maximilian?
00:28:35What are you doing
00:28:36with that peasant?
00:28:37That's my girlfriend
00:28:38you're talking about.
00:28:39Blaine Ellington
00:28:40getting my sloppy seconds.
00:28:56This isn't over.
00:29:01Come on, Regina.
00:29:06Just stay away
00:29:07from my man, skink.
00:29:09I was actually trying to.
00:29:14Are 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
00:29:31does a good job.
00:29:34Getting into a physical
00:29:36altercation
00:29:36in a bar?
00:29:39What?
00:29:40Are you a child?
00:29:41I'm not a child.
00:29:42But he started it.
00:29:44Well, I don't care
00:29:44who started it.
00:29:46Ellington
00:29:46is a company
00:29:48based in family values.
00:29:51I was out with my girlfriend
00:29:53trying to uphold
00:29:54those family values.
00:29:55No, no, no, don't, don't, don't, don't.
00:29:56Don't play the girlfriend card, okay?
00:29:58The onus is you on this, pal.
00:29:59Well, you know,
00:30:01maybe your sister was right.
00:30:04Maybe you're too much of a risk,
00:30:06even though you say
00:30:06you've settled down.
00:30:09Either way,
00:30:10I just hope all this boils over
00:30:11next time we talk.
00:30:14What would your father think?
00:30:33And the easy lies the head
00:30:34that wears a crown.
00:30:36What is that?
00:30:37Some family motto
00:30:38I'm not aware of?
00:30:39It's Shakespeare,
00:30:40you 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?
00:30:50What does page one of the paper
00:30:52say 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,
00:31:15we were sharing everything with each other.
00:31:17How can you share more?
00:31:19Behind most men's success
00:31:20is a strong woman.
00:31:22I will.
00:31:23I'm going to get close to this woman.
00:31:26You'll see.
00:31:27Hmm.
00:31:28And you will be like
00:31:30two lovely berries
00:31:31molded onto one stem.
00:31:33Shakespeare.
00:31:35Yeah?
00:31:37Ow!
00:31:47Martina,
00:31:48how are you?
00:31:50How am I?
00:31:52Yeah?
00:31:53How are you?
00:31:54I am annoyed.
00:31:55Time is running out,
00:31:56understand?
00:31:57Mm-hmm.
00:31:58We chose you because
00:31:59we thought you could get
00:31:59the job done.
00:32:00But now I'm not so sure.
00:32:04Wait.
00:32:06Oh my God,
00:32:07do you have feelings for him?
00:32:08What?
00:32:09No.
00:32:10I hope not.
00:32:11Because you have four days
00:32:12to get that code?
00:32:14Or you can say bye to mommy.
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 guide trouble coming?
00:32:40Better.
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?
00:32:50I'll be right there.
00:32:51Good thing you've got work
00:32:52to distract you.
00:32:53Heh.
00:32:54Good thing.
00:33:01You have the file
00:33:02for 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
00:33:31for, um,
00:33:33ten minutes.
00:33:41That's an order.
00:33:43Okay.
00:33:51This is nice.
00:33:54Yeah.
00:33:56This should be, like,
00:33:58an everyday thing.
00:34:01Mm-hmm.
00:34:04Good morning.
00:34:05Another beautiful day
00:34:06in Ellington.
00:34:07Let's get it!
00:34:08Woo!
00:34:09Oh, Hannah.
00:34:14Well,
00:34:15I guess that's over.
00:34:19Um.
00:34:20Well,
00:34:20everything should be there.
00:34:24I can't even concentrate
00:34:25on work right now.
00:34:27Oh?
00:34:28Why?
00:34:29Well,
00:34:29I don't know if you heard,
00:34:32but...
00:34:34Oh, my.
00:34:35That's, uh,
00:34:36quite a scene.
00:34:37Well,
00:34:37I'm glad you weren't there.
00:34:40I can imagine.
00:34:42Yeah,
00:34:42I just...
00:34:43I hope
00:34:44my girlfriend
00:34:45doesn't think
00:34:45that that's
00:34:46my kind of lifestyle.
00:34:49You should just
00:34:49talk to her.
00:34:51and be honest.
00:34:52Yeah.
00:34:53I'm gonna call her.
00:34:55What?
00:34:58Yeah,
00:34:58can you be in the room
00:34:59when I do it?
00:35:00Uh,
00:35:01you want me
00:35:02in the room?
00:35:03Yeah.
00:35:04Maybe you could,
00:35:04you know,
00:35:05listen to her voice
00:35:06and read her.
00:35:08Tell me if she sounds
00:35:09upset.
00:35:11Uh,
00:35:12I don't know
00:35:13if I feel comfortable.
00:35:14Oh, gosh,
00:35:15she makes me so nervous.
00:35:17I'm sure
00:35:18you make her nervous, too.
00:35:19I'm gonna be sick.
00:35:20Shit, shit, shit.
00:35:21Uh-oh.
00:35:23Uh-oh.
00:35:25Think, Ariel,
00:35:26think.
00:35:27Uh,
00:35:28I'm gonna be sick.
00:35:29Bathroom!
00:35:36Hello, darling.
00:35:38Hey,
00:35:39Valentina.
00:35:41How are you?
00:35:43Thriving, my dear.
00:35:44How are you feeling?
00:35:46A little banged up,
00:35:48but
00:35:48I've been worse.
00:35:49You should have been with me
00:35:50in my partying days
00:35:51in Ibiza.
00:35:52I was an absolute
00:35:53heathen.
00:36:00Well,
00:36:00I'm glad to hear
00:36:01you're feeling all right.
00:36:03Uh,
00:36:04I was worried.
00:36:07No need, darling.
00:36:09I'm
00:36:09actually at the spa
00:36:10right now.
00:36:12Uh,
00:36:13I wanted to know
00:36:14if, uh,
00:36:16I get to see you again.
00:36:17You will.
00:36:18Very soon.
00:36:25Uh,
00:36:27sorry.
00:36:28Can I help you?
00:36:29I-I couldn't hear you.
00:36:31It-it kind of sounded like...
00:36:32Uh,

00:36:34Eduardo is calling me
00:36:35for my
00:36:36hot stone massage.

00:36:40Okay.

00:36:51Hmm.
00:36:52Character
00:36:53I'm rehearsing.
00:36:56We're a mystery.
00:36:59I'll, uh,
00:37:00send you the dates.
00:37:02I'm not in the theater.
00:37:05That's fair.
00:37:21Mom,
00:37:22I'm home.
00:37:23Hi, honey.
00:37:24How was your day?
00:37:27It was
00:37:28not
00:37:29boring.
00:37:30How was yours?
00:37:32It was wonderful.
00:37:34I did laundry,
00:37:35watched some soaps.
00:37:38Um,
00:37:39what are you cooking?
00:37:40I told you
00:37:40I was gonna cook tonight.
00:37:42Well,
00:37:43you weren't home yet,
00:37:43and I wanted to go ahead
00:37:44and get started
00:37:45so your co-worker
00:37:46could 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
00:38:11that you got a job promotion.
00:38:12You didn't say anything
00:38:14about a job promotion.
00:38:15I guess it slipped my mind.
00:38:19Well,
00:38:20you two don't mind me.
00:38:21Go ahead
00:38:21and have your work talk.
00:38:22Dinner will be ready soon.
00:38:35What are you doing here?
00:38:36Checking in
00:38:37to see what progress
00:38:38was made last night.
00:38:39I, um,
00:38:41I got close
00:38:42to finding out
00:38:42where he hit the drive,
00:38:44but I don't...
00:38:45But close doesn't
00:38:45pay the bills,
00:38:46does it?
00:38:47I'll get you the drive soon,
00:38:49I promise.
00:38:50Well,
00:38:50it sounds like
00:38:51the clock is ticking fast.
00:38:54You are not getting attached.
00:38:57What?
00:38:57No.
00:38:58Of course not.
00:38:59Good.
00:39:00I was worried
00:39:01you were developing
00:39:01feelings for the man.
00:39:05Dinner's ready.
00:39:07Deeply sorry,
00:39:09darling.
00:39:09Urgent business
00:39:10must be taking off.
00:39:11Oh,
00:39:12um,
00:39:12okay,
00:39:13well,
00:39:13it was nice meeting you.
00:39:15You too,
00:39:16darling.
00:39:17Mwah.
00:39:21Tick tock.
00:39:33All right,
00:39:34I need ways
00:39:35to fix my image
00:39:37after that bar scandal.
00:39:38Any ideas?
00:39:41Inner rehab.
00:39:42Too tacky.
00:39:44Go volunteer
00:39:45in a third world country?
00:39:47Mm,
00:39:48too obvious.
00:39:49Record an apology video
00:39:50for social media
00:39:51and post it there.
00:39:52Too cringe.
00:39:58Adopt an orphan.
00:39:59Now that
00:40:00is something.
00:40:01Ariel,
00:40:01how good are you
00:40:02at raising kids?
00:40:03Um,
00:40:03let's think of
00:40:04other options.
00:40:08What about
00:40:08a charity ball?
00:40:10Yes,
00:40:11that's it.
00:40:12That's the one.
00:40:12I like that.
00:40:14I like it a lot.
00:40:15Isn't she good?
00:40:17Phenomenal.
00:40:18Well,
00:40:19really,
00:40:19we wouldn't be here
00:40:20had I not appointed her
00:40:21as your assistant,

00:40:28How about
00:40:29unknown disorders
00:40:30and illnesses?

00:54:47Oh, hi, Ariel.
00:54:51Uh, you must be mistaken, love.
00:54:54I don't know this Ariel you speak of.
00:54:58Yeah, okay.
00:54:59Ariel.
00:55:01No, seriously.
00:55:02My name is Valentina Kingsley and I'm a very wealthy socialite.
00:55:07Oh, I get it.
00:55:08It's like one of those improv games or something.
00:55:12No, no, no.
00:55:13No game.
00:55:14My name is...
00:55:15Who else should I be?
00:55:17Just be yourself.
00:55:19So, I'm the Queen of England.
00:55:23You can really tell it's me?
00:55:25Yeah, but I mean, I can be very observant.
00:55:30Really?
00:55:31Mm-hmm.
00:55:31Okay, well, Hannah, it's very important that this stays between us.
00:55:36Okay.
00:55:36Can I ask why?
00:55:38Well, 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.
00:55:51Well, good luck with whatever this is.
00:55:57Yeah, thanks.
00:55:58I'm gonna need it.
00:56:21Ah, there you are, darling.
00:56:22Ah, Valentina.
00:56:24I'm so glad to see you.
00:56:25Look at this place.
00:56:27I haven't seen a ball as elegant as this since the King of Spain's birthday.
00:56:30I'm glad it lives up to your approval.
00:56:33Of course.
00:56:34You're doing a speech, I see.
00:56:36Well, 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.
00:56:59I must go speak with her.
00:57:00Uh, Valentina, I was thinking maybe tonight I could show you the AI code.
00:57:10Yes, I would love to see what you've been working on.
00:57:13Great.
00:57:14Where would this be taking place?
00:57:16In the study or?
00:57:18Upstairs.
00:57:19Hidden 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?
00:57:34I'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.
00:57:42I'll let you get back to socializing.
00:57:46Good 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.
00:59:37Is everything all right?
00:59:38Everything's fine, darling.
00:59:41Hey, Valentina.
00:59:42I have a girl question for you.
00:59:48Oh, my God.
00:59:49For the love of God.
00:59:51You clearly have a crush on Hannah.
00:59:53Just ask her to dance.
00:59:54You just met me.
00:59:55You 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.
01:00:04In fact, I'll go butter her up for you.
01:00:07Would you?
01:00:08That would be great.
01:00:11Dude.
01:00:15Hannah, I need a favor.
01:00:17Anything.
01:00:18When Blaine is giving his speech, I'm going to 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.
01:00:31Oh, and Kurt's going to ask you to dance.
01:00:33Really?
01:00:35Sorry.
01:00:36When?
01:00:38Tonight.
01:00:39Oh, right.
01:00:39It's a ball.
01:00:40Yeah.
01:00:53It's time, brother.
01:00:54You ready?
01:00:55As ready as I'll ever be.
01:00:57All right.
01:01:01Thank you for coming tonight.
01:01:04It means a lot.
01:01:05Of course.
01:01:07You're going to be amazing.
01:01:15Ladies and gentlemen, I want to 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,
01:01:28Mr. Blaine Ellington.
01:01:34Good evening, everyone.
01:01:37I want to, before we get started, thank two people who, without their help, none of this
01:01:43would have happened tonight.
01:01:44My assistant Ariel and my girlfriend, Valentina.
01:01:50Uh, 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.
01:03:01All 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.
01:03:34So, tonight, I'm pledging $10 million to help research cures for illnesses and disorders unknown.
01:03:43Thank you all for coming.
01:03:45I hope to see you on the dance floor.
01:03:51I hope to see you on the dance floor.
01:04:40I'll give you a hint.
01:04:42If you were to look for it,
01:04:44you'd be staring at the most beautiful thing in the world.
01:04:49He wasn't talking about the painting.
01:04:54He was talking about me.
01:04:55I had a alarm.
01:05:23I'm sorry.
01:05:48I think Ariel
01:06:03What could the numbers be?
01:06:05It couldn't be our first date, could it?
01:06:34I've got the code
01:06:37Excellent, darling
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
01:07:10I was beginning to think you didn't have it in you
01:07:13Lane'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
01:07:24I've been accused of many things
01:07:26But I always keep my word
01:07:29Now
01:07:30Go and celebrate
01:07:31You deserve it, darling
01:07:59Balancina
01:07:59Hi, darling
01:08:00There you are
01:08:02How are you feeling?
01:08:04Stronger than the rains in the Amazon, darling
01:08:07Excellent
01:08:08Care to dance?
01:08:10Certainly
01:08:13Well, well
01:08:15Well
01:08:16Well
01:08:18Look at the happy couple
01:08:25How did you get in?
01:08:26Oh, I have my ways
01:08:28We lied about our names on the guest list
01:08:32Anyway
01:08:35I just came here to congratulate you
01:08:37On your little events
01:08:39You need to leave
01:08:41Actually, I don't think I do
01:08:42Because I don't think you
01:08:44Know who your little girlfriend is
01:08:46She's Valentina Kingsley
01:08:48No, no, no
01:08:49There is no Valentina Kingsley
01:08:53What?
01:08:55If only your little assistant
01:08:56Had assisted you
01:08:58In researching her
01:09:00You know, it's funny
01:09:01I haven't actually seen her
01:09:03All night
01:09:05Blaine, don't listen to him
01:09:07What is he talking about?
01:09:10Yeah, she may have fooled
01:09:11Everyone
01:09:12In here
01:09:14But an ex-boyfriend
01:09:15Never
01:09:16Brickets a butt
01:09:29Ariel?
01:09:40This whole time
01:09:41You've been Valentina?
01:09:43That's right
01:09:44This whole time
01:09:46You pretended to care about me
01:09:48But you're
01:09:49Just a liar
01:09:50And worse
01:09:51She's poor
01:09:54Why?
01:09:56Yes, Ariel
01:09:57But why?
01:10:00I'm so sorry
01:10:02Ariel
01:10:02Ariel, wait
01:10:05How embarrassing
01:10:08You know
01:10:10I looked into you
01:10:12You're in so much debt
01:10:13That it's surprising
01:10:14That you can even rent
01:10:16The Lambo
01:10:16That you drove here
01:10:17How preposterous
01:10:19If anybody looks into that
01:10:20It will be a complete waste of time
01:10:23Ew
01:10:24You're poor?
01:10:27Regina!
01:10:33You're my hero
01:10:34Thanks
01:10:35Sometimes I just
01:10:37Gotta tell
01:10:38You know
01:10:42Ariel!
01:10:51What are you smiling about?
01:10:53I mean, come on
01:10:55This proves it, right?
01:10:57He's a joke
01:10:59No, he's your brother, Martina
01:11:02He's a liability, Richard
01:11:03And you are giving him the company
01:11:05With the luxury of not having to deal with this shit show
01:11:08Because you won't be alive much longer
01:11:09Oh, well, don't bet on that
01:11:11You know, you've got a lot of nerve
01:11:13Talking to me like this, kid
01:11:17You've got a lot of nerve
01:11:18Letting this ship go down
01:11:19When the lifeboat is right in front of you
01:11:22I should be running this company
01:11:24Or
01:11:25Is this what success looks like to you?
01:11:32Look, I'm not poor
01:11:33I don't want to hear it
01:11:35I do not want to hear it
01:11:36I promise you
01:11:37You lied to me
01:11:38Not only did you lie to me
01:11:39But you embarrassed me
01:11:40No, I didn't
01:11:40That is fair
01:11:48Regina!
01:12:09That was a disaster
01:12:12I just don't understand
01:12:18Why would she go through all of that?
01:12:20I don't know
01:12:22But
01:12:24These scandals are exhausting
01:12:26Yeah
01:12:27I don't think I'll be dating anytime soon
01:12:33Right
01:12:36I've 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
01:12:42In a complete different direction
01:12:44If we're going to gain back
01:12:45The public's trust
01:12:47You can't be serious
01:12:53Something better happen soon
01:12:55Or
01:12:55I guess much worse
01:12:59Did she want anything from you?
01:13:02I don't know, Martina
01:13:04Nothing valuable?
01:13:05Martina
01:13:06I said I don't
01:13:29No!
01:13:31No!
01:13:38Ariel
01:13:40Baby
01:13:41Oh
01:13:42You look like you had a rough night
01:13:46It was a disaster, really
01:13:48I feel awful
01:13:49Oh
01:13:51I'm so sorry to hear that, baby
01:13:53Thanks, Mom
01:13:55Well
01:13:56I have something to tell you
01:13:58Dr. Westphal called
01:14:00Are you okay?
01:14:01What's going on?
01:14:03He
01:14:05Said
01:14:05That anonymous donor
01:14:07Sent in the funds
01:14:08For me to have my operation
01:14:09What?
01:14:11I'm scheduled for surgery
01:14:12On Tuesday
01:14:13Oh my God
01:14:14Oh
01:14:17Mom, I'm so happy
01:14:20I think this calls for my famous chocolate cake
01:14:23I agree
01:14:25Are you okay?
01:14:25Are you okay?
01:14:58It's time to celebrate
01:15:02To the future, darling
01:15:10Drink
01:15:11You've worked much too hard not to revel in your victory
01:15:18There it is
01:15:19Doesn't our little prize look nice?
01:15:23People walk in and out of my office
01:15:26Having no idea what's in the room with them
01:15:29Of course, I won't be able to enjoy too much longer
01:15:32Since my programmer is going to pick it up tonight
01:15:35I guess I just feel bad
01:15:39To get what you want in life
01:15:40Sometimes you have to do bold things
01:15:42Break the rules a little
01:15:46I guess
01:15:48Ask any CEO
01:15:50And they'll agree
01:15:51Including your little boy toy
01:15:54Blaine would never do anything like that
01:15:56Well, anyway
01:15:58Speaking of money
01:16:00Let's get that surgery paid for, shall we?
01:16:03What?
01:16:04All I need is your wiring info
01:16:06And I can send it on over
01:16:08I trust that the original estimate hasn't changed
01:16:12I'm sorry
01:16:13You haven't paid for the surgery yet?
01:16:17No
01:16:18That's why we're here, isn't it?
01:16:22Darling
01:16:48All right
01:16:49One more drink
01:16:50And we'll start packing up my things
01:16:54Deal
01:16:54One more
01:17:00Anna
01:17:01Hi, Mr. Ellington
01:17:02May I come in?
01:17:03Sure
01:17:03Come on in
01:17:05Hi, cutie
01:17:09Care for a drink?
01:17:10Oh, no
01:17:11I stopped drinking on the job ages ago
01:17:13Wait, what was that?
01:17:14Mr. Ellington
01:17:15I have a delivery for you
01:17:17From who?
01:17:19Ariel
01:17:25I don't want it
01:17:26Take it back
01:17:27She said you might say that
01:17:29But she said that it was very, very important
01:17:32How important?
01:17:35I don't know
01:17:36But she did say that it was something so important
01:17:39That she only trusted me to deliver it
01:17:41So 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?
01:18:03What 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
01:18:27But they said no
01:18:27I didn't have any appointments scheduled for today
01:18:30What was the name?
01:18:34Valentina Kingsley
01:18:55You're rich
01:18:56You'll get over it
01:18:59Darling
01:18:59Darling
01:19:13What's going on?
01:19:15What does this mean?
01:19:20Thank you for everything
01:19:27Hannah, did you want to help me with that thing?
01:19:31I would love to
01:19:31Yes, let's do that
01:19:38Can you please get the hell out of my seat?
01:19:45Lane
01:19:47There's no easy way for me to say this
01:19:51But it's time
01:20:00But it's time
01:20:06To celebrate
01:20:12You are going to regret this
01:20:14I promise you that
01:20:20Jeez
01:20:21What did you do?
01:20:22I don't know, girl
01:20:23But the way she wears that dress
01:20:25She can step on me
01:20:27Any day
01:20:30I see
01:20:30I knew you could do it
01:20:32I knew it
01:20:34You know
01:20:36Your dad would be so proud of you
01:20:42Dr. Westfall
01:20:49Oh, hi, Ariel
01:20:50Is surgery over?
01:20:52How did it go?
01:20:52Yes, we just finished
01:20:54There were complications
01:20:55Complications?
01:20:56Yes, but
01:20:57We were able to work through them
01:20:59And 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
01:21:09But when she wakes up
01:21:10She's going to feel better than she has in a long time
01:21:13I can't thank you enough
01:21:14I'm happy to help
01:21:29I feel my bad
01:21:32I know
01:21:32I don't know
01:21:32I'm happy to tell her
01:21:33How did she leave her?
01:21:33I didn't know
01:21:33How did she each other
01:21:38I thought Iwing her
01:21:38How did she get at all?
01:21:40I know
01:21:40You Water
01:21:40How did I do
01:21:43I know
01:21:43What her
01:21:44How did sheinte
01:21:54Come in, come in.
01:21:58Welcome.
01:22:03Ariel.
01:22:05Mom, why didn't you hang 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
01:22:13and 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.
01:22:53Thank 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?
01:23:26Well, if you're open to it, I'd love to apply.
01:23:43I love you, Valentina.
01:23:45I, I mean, Ariel.
01:23:48That's gonna take some getting used to.
01:23:51There aren't any starry rooftop views here.
01:23:55But this is my special place.
01:23:59It's even better.
01:24:13I'm still looking for you.
01:24:15Amen.
