Short filmTranscript
00:00:03Working under this much stress for a huge company, it's all for you mom.
00:00:08Are you nervous about your first day?
00:00:11A little bit, but thank you for getting me the job.
00:00:15Of course.
00:00:16It's been crazy.
00:00:17The CEO, Sebastian Armstrong, is working on a huge merger.
00:00:21He could be a two-time billionaire by the end of this deal.
00:00:24But isn't he already the richest man in the world?
00:00:26The youngest richest man in the world.
00:00:43I wonder if he remembers me from college.
00:00:46You're going to have to sacrifice a lot of late nights,
00:00:49and you're going to make enemies on your way to the top.
00:01:03The perfume was intoxicating.
00:01:08Sorry, what was I saying?
00:01:14Oh my god, what is that wretched smell?
00:01:17Maybe that's my perfume.
00:01:19That's it.
00:01:20It's god-awful.
00:01:22Deliveries go downstairs, sweetie.
00:01:23Actually, I am Mr. Armstrong's new receptionist.
00:01:27I used to have that job.
00:01:28Back then they used to hire class.
00:01:30I guess now they're willing to hire anyone off the street.
00:01:33Sorry to spit the truth, bitch, but you lost a minute here.
00:01:43Oops!
00:01:44You should probably clean that up.
00:01:46Or I'll just tell them that you did it.
00:01:51Okay, my job is to answer phone calls and keep Mr. Sebastian's schedule.
00:01:58It's good health insurance.
00:02:00It'll pay for my mom's medical bills.
00:02:07Get out of my way, loser.
00:02:09Nice shirt!
00:02:11I told you.
00:02:12Wouldn't last a day here.
00:02:18Who is that?
00:02:20That is Sebastian's wife.
00:02:23His wife?
00:02:25Be careful around her.
00:02:27She's a viper.
00:02:28Everyone knows she's only with him for his money.
00:02:31Sebastian Armstrong.
00:02:32We're going out tonight.
00:02:38Ruby, I have already told you that I want a divorce.
00:02:42And you need to sign these papers.
00:02:45Hmm.
00:02:54Honey.
00:02:55We're so good together.
00:02:58Our love burns white hot.
00:03:01Remember when we used to make love in the office executive shower?
00:03:03Mm.
00:03:04Ruby, we are over.
00:03:08Because you have made it abundantly clear that all you've ever been after is my money.
00:03:13Especially after I caught you stealing.
00:03:16Now, I have a business meeting today with Robert Sanchez.
00:03:19And it is the largest business deal that I have ever had.
00:03:22Well, nobody denies Ruby Cromwell.
00:03:28Get up.
00:03:29You need to get out.
00:03:30Okay?
00:03:30I'm all sweaty for my workout.
00:03:32I need to take a shower, so go.
00:03:33Why don't I join?

00:12:46so
00:12:54so
00:12:56so
00:13:26That dress fits you perfectly.
00:13:29How did you know my size?
00:13:31My grandfather used to work at a carnival.
00:13:34I could guess your weight, too, but I'd rather just buy a dress for you.
00:13:41This room must have cost a fortune.
00:13:43Yeah, they tend to comp the room when you own the hotel.
00:13:53I'm used to my wine coming in a box.
00:13:57You are one of a kind and a supporter.
00:14:00No one has ever said that to me, Sebastian, where he's from.
00:14:04I'm used to my wineимся.
00:14:34I'm used to make this room for you.
00:16:04They have their eye on him right now.
00:16:05They might be looking to make it a hostile takeover.
00:16:08You're the only person I've told.
00:16:10We both decided to be discreet.
00:16:12The last thing he needs is media attention.
00:16:14It's also the last thing you need with your mom.
00:16:17How is Teresa doing?
00:16:18Better.
00:16:18They say she has one more treatment and hopefully she'll be in remission.
00:16:22That's great news.
00:16:24I really need to keep this job.
00:16:32Are you just going to stand there or are we going to get to work?
00:16:34Do you have any idea what you're doing?
00:16:36We're getting so close to finalizing this merger.
00:16:39Of course I know what I'm doing.
00:16:59Are you spying on me?
00:17:02Not me.
00:17:04But somebody is.
00:17:07Those came across my desk earlier today.
00:17:09And I had to pay a pretty good penny to keep them out of the press.
00:17:14I'm not a married man.
00:17:15I can date somebody.
00:17:16Your divorce with Ruby isn't final.
00:17:19She won't sign the papers, Robert.
00:17:20Any way you cut it, Sebastian, it can be a problem.
00:17:24The board is wary of getting into business with another billionaire playboy.
00:17:29They like stability, especially after that one in Gotham went rogue.
00:17:34Maybe it would help to be a happily married man.
00:17:38I don't think that exists.
00:17:41I got news for you, pal.
00:17:43It does.
00:17:4435 years.
00:17:52I wish I could tell the world how I feel about her.
00:17:56But the world finding out about us during my divorce would hurt the merger.
00:18:03We are playing with fire, but I care about him so much, I just can't jeopardize anything.
00:18:17Well, well, well, what do we have here?
00:18:22Excuse me?
00:18:23I'm Lombardi.
00:18:24Bruno Lombardi.
00:18:26Hi, I'm Vanessa, Mr. Armstrong's new assistant.
00:18:30We have so much in common.
00:18:31I'm also new at Armstrong Enterprises.
00:18:33I'm here to dictate the merger.
00:18:35But why talk about work while at work when we can talk about play while we play?
00:18:40What?
00:18:41Happy hour.
00:18:42Teenies only.
00:18:44Teenies?
00:18:45Martinis?
00:18:46Teenies to bikinis?
00:18:48Oh.
00:18:50That's funny.
00:18:51Yeah.
00:18:52What'd you say we get out of those wet clothes and into a dry martini?
00:18:59Are all your pickup lines martini-based?
00:19:02Yeah.
00:19:04Ugh.
00:19:07We need to talk.
00:19:09Ruby, I didn't see you on my schedule.
00:19:12Oh, okay.
00:19:13I'm pretty sure I don't need to be on your schedule because I'm your wife.
00:19:17X-Y.
00:19:18What do you need?
00:19:19What's the problem?
00:19:20I'm still unhappy with the divorce terms.
00:19:23How can you be unhappy?
00:19:25It's fair.
00:19:25I paid you more than half.
00:19:28I still want you.
00:19:31No baby voice, Ruby.
00:19:33Okay, we're through.
00:19:35Fine.
00:19:36Clearly you don't want me anymore.
00:19:37But I do know that you want me to sign before the merger.
00:19:40The merger has nothing to do with you.
00:19:43What if I wanted to have something to do with me?
00:19:45You are entitled to none of that.
00:19:47We'll see about that.
00:19:49You need to get out of here before I call security.
00:19:52You wouldn't dare.
00:19:58You need to go.
00:19:59Come on, out the door.
00:20:00Oh!
00:20:08Hey there.
00:20:10Hey, sorry.
00:20:11I'm wiped.
00:20:12I know that you overheard Ruby yelling at me.
00:20:16It's none of my business.
00:20:17It's over between her and I.
00:20:20She does not think so.
00:20:24So, would you like to have dinner with me?
00:20:27I'm not really hungry.
00:20:30You sure about that?
00:20:34I don't think it's a good idea.
00:20:37Look, I know that we've both been under a lot of stress.
00:20:40We can just keep it simple.
00:20:42Have some good food, take our mind off things.
00:20:44No pressure.
00:20:45He's right.
00:20:46We're both under a lot of stress.
00:20:48But I can't put my stress on him.
00:20:50So, dinner?
00:20:51Keep it simple.
00:20:53Keep it simple.
00:21:04This is simple.
00:21:08You're worth it.
00:21:12I'm worried about the merger.
00:21:17You too.
00:21:18I'm not worried about you closing it.
00:21:20I'm worried about us.
00:21:22Look, it's almost a done deal.
00:21:24All eyes are on you.
00:21:26With this and your divorce, don't you worry that this will make the company think you're unfit?
00:21:31Unfit for what?
00:21:32The merger is just money.
00:21:34And I have money.
00:21:35But I don't have love.
00:21:39And I want to be with you.
00:21:43I don't know.
00:21:46Why are you so hesitant?
00:21:48I don't know if I can tell him.
00:21:52What's going on?
00:21:54My mom is...
00:21:57Cancer.
00:21:58She has cancer.
00:22:00And I just need to focus on work right now because her bills are mounting up.
00:22:04You know I can take care of that for you.
00:22:06No, Sebastian, that's not why I'm telling you.
00:22:08I don't want your charity.
00:22:10My mom always taught me to earn everything I get.
00:22:16Well, she sounds like a strong woman.
00:22:18She's the strongest woman I know.
00:22:20I admire you.
00:22:22I don't need to be admired.
00:22:24I need to be understood.
00:22:27Understood.
00:22:30I think we should slow down a little.
00:22:32What are you talking about?
00:22:34Maybe just be friends.
00:22:37I don't think I could just be friends with you.
00:22:40I don't think I can be anything more.
00:22:54I see you.
00:22:57What?
00:22:58I see you.
00:22:59You're a rising star of this company.
00:23:01I am just trying to work here.
00:23:03I don't need any distractions.
00:23:05Let me guess.
00:23:06Your job's a joke.
00:23:07You're broke.
00:23:08Your love life's the OA.
00:23:10It's like you're always stuck in second gear.
00:23:13It hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year.
00:23:21You're a real-ass person.
00:23:22I don't know.
00:23:22You're a real-ass person.
00:23:23I don't know.
00:23:24Babe, come on.
00:23:28Release the attention.
00:23:34Maybe this is for the better.
00:23:36I have to get Sebastian to end this.
00:23:39This is the only way.
00:23:40uh yeah that's the spot that's what i'm talking about girl

00:30:16it's okay
00:30:17vanessa
00:30:21people in my position
00:30:22have a very hard time with dating
00:30:24everyone
00:30:25everyone only seems to want one thing for me and that's why i have to be protective
00:30:28i've been blinded by love before
00:30:31ruby
00:30:33that obvious huh
00:30:34she's um
00:30:35bitch
00:30:37yeah
00:30:38and she also could put this
00:30:40hold on people
00:30:41and i didn't realize it till much later that she's
00:30:44just a gold digger
00:30:46and she never loved me
00:30:47she only loved my bank account
00:30:49and that's why i tend to be defensive

00:31:17and
00:31:18she
00:31:19carries that guilt
00:31:21the other day she said that sometimes she wished she had died

00:39:16they wrote
00:39:17a bad word
00:39:18a magic marker
00:39:19or maybe some vinegar or something
00:39:21wouldn't help get that off
00:39:22i know mom
00:39:23i think it was somehow connected to this guy at work
00:39:26this guy at work
00:39:27bruno lombardi
00:39:28he has been all over me
00:39:31and it's starting to word me out
00:39:32you said bruno lombardi
00:39:34john lombardi's son
00:39:39john lombardi runs a crime family
00:39:41yes
00:39:42and bruno is quote unquote
00:39:44heir to that throne
00:39:47a crime family
00:39:49yeah
00:39:49your uncle had some run-in with them years ago
00:39:53they're thugs
00:39:53and if bruno is anything like his father
00:39:56you want to be swiping left
00:39:57like the kids say
00:39:58i think he got fired today
00:40:00what if he blames me for everything
00:40:01kids today
00:40:03they always want to blame somebody else for their
00:40:05issues
00:40:06they can't take responsibility
00:40:07they're not my baby girl
00:40:12the lombardi crime family
00:40:13accused of racketeering drugs
00:40:16human trafficking
00:40:17apparently he's still running
00:40:19the crime family from prison
00:40:21and he's grooming bruno to take over
00:40:24they've got some troubles going on
00:40:26so honey please be careful

00:41:12word is he's being groomed to become head of the crime family
00:41:17then why would he want a job here
00:41:18i don't know
00:41:19he could be dangerous
00:41:20look

00:56:01Okay.
00:56:03Mom?
00:56:06Mom?
00:56:20Hello?
00:56:21Who is this?
00:56:22I'm your mother.
00:56:23She will stay safe if you follow my everywhere.
00:56:26I'll test instructions to this phone.
00:56:28If you alert the authorities, your mother will be killed.
00:56:32I'm coming for you, Mom.
00:56:37This is the address?
00:56:40Vanessa.
00:56:42Glad you made it.
00:56:43Looks like you brought your little boyfriend, hmm?
00:56:53Yes, Colin, boss.
00:56:55So is she.
00:56:58Let's go inside.
00:57:01Look at you two.
00:57:03Wow.
00:57:04The perfect couple.
00:57:06What do you want, Bruno?
00:57:07I'll do the questioning.
00:57:09That's what people with guns get to do.
00:57:12We could have been a great team, but you had to blow it off for some tram.
00:57:17Just tell me why.
00:57:19Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:57:21I always hated guys like you, Sebastian, bootstrap guys.
00:57:25That's why I'm going to love beating you dry for everything you worked for.
00:57:31I want your entire fortune.
00:57:34You son of a bitch.
00:57:36Calm down, Sebastian.
00:57:39You don't want to end up under the sea.
00:57:46Fine.
00:57:49For Teresa.
00:57:51We just need to know that she's alive.
00:57:59Mom, if it's okay, if it's okay, if it's okay, boo, boo.
00:58:08There's your proof of life.
00:58:10Transfer the money to this address using this phone.
00:58:16Come on.
00:58:21I'm so sorry that this is happening.
00:58:23This is all my fault.
00:58:29It's going to wipe you out.
00:58:32It doesn't matter.
00:58:33As long as you and your mother are safe.
00:58:37I can always make my money back, but I need you on my side.
00:58:47Thanks for the money.
00:58:49But you didn't really think I'll let your mom go, did you?
00:58:59Oh, my God.
00:59:06Ruby, you killed him.
00:59:09Oh, oopsies.
00:59:11I'm such a klutz.
00:59:13Guess I won't be sharing that money after all.
00:59:18What, honey?
00:59:19You play chess.
00:59:20You know the pawns always die.
00:59:23Hands up!
00:59:27Why are you doing this?
00:59:29I gave you everything.
00:59:30Why?
00:59:31Because you left me.
00:59:33Nobody leaves me.
00:59:34I get everything I've always wanted.
00:59:38You know exactly why.
00:59:42When I met you, you were nothing.
00:59:46The only reason you married me was for my family name.
00:59:48For my clout.
00:59:49You used me to climb the social ladder.
00:59:53Then once you got to the top, you dropped me.
00:59:55And what you think this whore can replace me?
00:59:59You're wrong.
01:00:00I married you for what I thought was out of love.
01:00:03But then I quickly realized that all you ever cared about was material shit.
01:00:08And I tried to prove to you that we can't have it all.
01:00:11We could.
01:00:13Spare me, Mr. Perfect, please.
01:00:15I really can't.
01:00:19Hmm.
01:00:24No, no.
01:00:29Oopsies!
01:00:30Sorry, my little mouse.
01:00:32It won't happen again.
01:00:33Ruby, you can fix all of this.
01:00:35All you need to do is let Teresa go.
01:00:39Fix this?
01:00:40Yes.
01:00:42This is beyond repair, my dear husband.
01:00:46Revenge, retribution, whatever you want to call it.
01:00:48I finally have the power.
01:00:52Fuck you, bitch!
01:00:56Most dads give their girls jewelry.
01:00:58But not my dad.
01:00:59I used to think guns were scary.
01:01:01But in the right hand, they're quite beautiful.
01:01:05We could have been great, Sebastian.
01:01:07But you had to go ahead and ruin it all.
01:01:10Shut the fuck up, Rudy!
01:01:14I'm gonna kill you both.
01:01:15And when the police get here, they'll find me laying on the ground, covered in blood, screaming,
01:01:20Help me!
01:01:22Help me!
01:01:24And I'll blame it on that, mafia moron.
01:01:31Drop it!
01:01:57You're okay?
01:01:59Yeah, I'm okay, honey.
01:02:00I knew you'd come and get me.
01:02:02But next time, can we go to Paris, please?
01:02:08Miss Porter, I'm Detective Colombo.
01:02:11We've been monitoring the Lombardi crime family for several months now.
01:02:14And we have all the information we need to indict Ruby and Bruno on an extortion plot.
01:02:20But how?
01:02:21We had somebody on the inside.
01:02:26You're a cop?
01:02:29Yep.
01:02:30Department of Justice undercover.
01:02:31The merger made us look into a possible crime link with Armstrong Enterprises.
01:02:35Turns out, Sebastian is legit.
01:02:37He just hired the wrong people.
01:02:38Luckily, Interpol connected me to the talent piece at just the right time.
01:02:42I would have never guessed.
01:02:44Guess those late-night wine sessions were just research, huh?
01:02:47Getting to be your friend was just one of the benefits.
01:02:50Oh, ah, one more thing.
01:02:52Mr. Armstrong, your money's secure.
01:02:54We made sure the transfer didn't go through.
01:03:04And in business news, the Congress has approved the Bastion Enterprise merger.
01:03:09CEO Sebastian Armstrong is now the richest man in the world.
01:03:12This merger is an unprecedented green deal.
01:03:14They've agreed to convert 70% of their carbon-producing plans into renewable energy power plants.
01:03:22Cheers to Teresa being cancer-free for six months.
01:03:26Cheers.
01:03:31And cheers to Vanessa.
01:03:35For her hopefully making me the happiest man on earth.
01:03:39Oh, my God.
01:03:44Will you marry me?
01:03:50Yes.
01:03:58I promise to love you forever.
01:04:02I promise to love you forever.
01:04:03Cheers.
01:04:06Thanks for joining us.
01:04:08Ha, ha, ha, ha.
