00:00:20Thank you for listening.
00:00:30Thank you for listening.
00:01:08Thank you for listening.
00:01:36Thank you for listening.
00:01:49Thank you for listening.
00:01:53About what?
00:01:55Loosening things up.
00:01:58So you want to do the single mother spot after all?
00:02:01Oh.
00:02:03No.
00:02:04Donna thinks that you should traditional heal.
00:02:13But I did tell her I don't want this to come at the cost of you giving me a grandchild.
00:02:18I told you, Jordan and I are going to try next year.
00:02:22You're already 30.
00:02:25I can still be a mom and a boss or a boss's daughter.
00:02:35But I will do all the social media and press you.
00:02:41All right, then.
00:02:42Back to work.
00:02:51I'm glad you had a good day, honey.
00:02:54Thank you for keeping my spot warm, Cody.
00:02:58I'm happy for you.
00:02:59You deserve it.
00:03:02Although I do feel like you have an unfair advantage.
00:03:06Being that you're the only one not afraid of your dad.
00:03:08Oh, come on.
00:03:09That's not fair.
00:03:11I'm very afraid of my dad.
00:03:15How was your day?
00:03:17Oh, you know.
00:03:18Just like any other day as a junior high school teacher.
00:03:22Drama, terror, insanity.
00:03:25Ah, those kids.
00:03:27Oh, speaking of kids.
00:03:30Fastback concept.
00:03:31He thinks we should have had kids a long time ago.
00:03:34Well, if we had kids when we first started dating.
00:03:36I would have been disowned and you would be castrated.
00:03:44Oh, speaking of our last year of freedom.
00:03:47Mm-hmm.
00:03:49Well, I was thinking.
00:03:53Never mind.
00:03:54Never mind.
00:03:55No, what?
00:03:56Come on, I hate when you do this.
00:04:00Come on.
00:04:01Okay.
00:04:02Well.
00:04:06What do you think about branching out a little?
00:04:10What specifically?
00:04:12That forbidden danger of our first time.
00:04:15Yes, having sex at my all-girl private school.
00:04:18Mm-hmm.
00:04:18During school hours.
00:04:20That was hot.
00:04:21So you want to go back to my high school?
00:04:24No, no, no, no.
00:04:25More like a...
00:04:30Uh, what?
00:04:33Uh, uh...
00:04:36A menage a trois.
00:04:39Oh.
00:04:41Um, you mean me and another girl?
00:04:44Well, um...
00:04:48Yeah.
00:04:49Yeah, that's, uh...
00:04:51That's what I would prefer.
00:04:54Uh...
00:04:54Just a minute.
00:04:56You know, since I am turning 30 tomorrow...
00:05:01Tell me.
00:05:02Mm-hmm.
00:05:02What's it like?
00:05:05Devastating.
00:05:07It's like...
00:05:08My youth just...
00:05:11Disappeared...
00:05:12When I turned the big 3-0.
00:05:15Funny.
00:05:19I mean, isn't it forbidden enough that you're married to an older woman?
00:05:23Oh, yes.
00:05:25Living on the edge.
00:05:31Good night, honey.
00:05:32Good night.
00:05:39Good night.
00:05:41He asked you if...
00:05:42Oh.
00:05:43Well, I...
00:05:44Don't know what to say.
00:05:49That's crazy, right?
00:05:51I mean, it's unexpected, but it's not uncommon.
00:05:55Really?
00:05:56Yeah.
00:05:57I know a lot of people have tried a third.
00:06:00Yeah, well, that's because you're so free-spirited, Lexi.
00:06:04But you don't think I should be worried?
00:06:07About what?
00:06:08About Jordan asking for a threesome.
00:06:11No.
00:06:13I actually think it speaks a lot to how much he trusts you as a person.
00:06:17I mean, it does anything to make me think that you can't trust him.
00:06:21I guess you're right.
00:06:23And you've been together for what?
00:06:25Since you were teenagers, right?
00:06:27Mm-hmm.
00:06:28Yeah.
00:06:29So, you haven't had the time to, you know, sell your wild oats.
00:06:36So you're for it.
00:06:37I don't know.
00:06:39I'm just...
00:06:40I'm not against it.
00:06:48Maybe I'll offer it to him for his birthday.
00:06:52Yeah, I like it.
00:06:54But just make sure it's not someone you know together.
00:06:56Like, you get a little awkward.
00:06:58Yeah, that makes sense.
00:07:00A little famous, so...
00:07:01That's a good point.
00:07:02Yeah.
00:07:06Lexi.
00:07:08Yeah?
00:07:10What about you?
00:07:12What about me?
00:07:15What about me?
00:07:30Would it be weird after?
00:07:32I mean, I don't want to lose you as a client.
00:07:36I don't think so.
00:07:38I mean, you don't seem like the type of person to be faced by it while they're naked in the
00:07:42locker room.
00:07:43True.
00:07:48Are you interested?
00:07:54What?
00:07:59I just can't believe that you, of all people, this rated G, would do something so NC-17.
00:08:08I mean, it's so antipedical to your whole persona.
00:08:14Although, personas really are just masks hiding what lurks beneath, which apparently, in your case, is a sex fiend.
00:08:30The most appealing part of it all is that it flies in the face of my good girl image.
00:08:38Ballard poster girl.
00:08:40Exactly.
00:08:42So it's kind of exciting to break out of my father's mold.
00:08:48Well, sounds like your little sexcapade might have some liberating therapeutic value.
00:08:56I give my blessing.
00:09:06You nervous?
00:09:08Yes.
00:09:09Are you?
00:09:10Completely.
00:09:19Hey, hey, you look beautiful.
00:09:22Thanks.
00:09:23So do you.
00:09:25Thanks.
00:09:28So, Lexi, this is Jordan, my husband.
00:09:32Jordan, this is Lexi Wolfe.
00:09:35Pleasure to meet you.
00:09:36It's nice to be here.
00:09:45So, what's good here?
00:09:46Yeah.
00:09:47This is me for it.
00:09:49They used to say that I had a silver cereal spoon in my mouth.
00:09:54They're probably just jealous.
00:09:55But, Lexi, what about you?
00:09:56I've never asked you about your childhood.
00:09:59That's so normal.
00:10:00It would bore you to tears.
00:10:02But, I saw you in your interview on TV the other day.
00:10:06Mm-mm.
00:10:08And she's going to be on all the Ballard family commercials soon.
00:10:11See?
00:10:12And I told you you were a celebrity.
00:10:14Oh, my gosh.
00:10:15Okay, guys.
00:10:15Stop.
00:10:16It's so embarrassing.
00:10:17Can we please talk about something else?
00:10:20So, why did you become a trainer?
00:10:23So I could meet Veronica.
00:10:29Get an actress.
00:10:31I realized it was such a long shot, so I dedicated myself to training.
00:10:39I love the human body.
00:10:59It was a fun night.
00:11:03It was a fun night.
00:11:11The chemistry wasn't back on one day.
00:11:16So, we're going to do it?
00:11:27Let's do it.
00:11:31Yeah?
00:11:51Do you think we should have a safe word?
00:11:55Um, yeah.
00:11:56That sounds like a good idea.
00:12:00How about...
00:12:04taffy?
00:12:07That seems like a really funny word to say when you're naked.
00:12:11It was too common.
00:12:12We might say it accidentally.
00:12:14Okay.
00:12:15Good point.
00:12:17Taffy it is.
00:12:35She, do you want to stop?
00:12:37Look, I just want to make sure you're still into this.
00:12:40Well, maybe we've come this far.
00:12:44And I don't want to be rude and have her come all this way for nothing.
00:12:49Neither to you to bring good manners in a situation like this.
00:12:57I love you.
00:12:59I love you, too.
00:13:01I love you, too.
00:13:13Hey.
00:13:14Come on in.
00:13:17What are you doing?
00:13:20I love your dress.
00:13:23Thanks.
00:13:25I, uh, I haven't worn it in years.
00:13:29Nice house.
00:13:32Yeah, we just, uh, did a remodel.
00:13:36Uh, let me get us some refreshments.
00:13:49You have two different color eyes.
00:13:53Yeah.
00:13:56Heterochromea.
00:13:57It's one of my many unique...
00:14:00You've never been this close before.
00:14:06I love you.
00:14:16Good.
00:14:23Good.
00:14:25Good.
00:14:32Good.
00:14:36Good.
00:14:37Good.
00:14:40Good.
00:16:12Did you enjoy it?
00:16:15We both did.
00:16:21And you're okay with it?
00:16:24Yeah.
00:16:25Yeah.
00:16:29Although I...
00:16:30I feel a little...
00:16:35Shame.
00:16:39It's just that Catholic isn't talking.
00:16:47I'd like to.
00:16:49Maybe, maybe, maybe.
00:16:50Maybe.
00:16:54Hello.
00:16:55Hello.
00:16:56Hi.
00:16:57Oh.
00:17:01Thanks for coming.
00:17:02Of course.
00:17:04Oh, let me order my...
00:17:05Oh, no.
00:17:06Already coming.
00:17:07Oh.
00:17:08Why, thank you.
00:17:13So...
00:17:14How'd it go?
00:17:17Well...
00:17:20Oh, no.
00:17:22Was it horrible?
00:17:26No.
00:17:27Act itself was...
00:17:30Oh, my God.
00:17:33Oh.
00:17:36Anything else?
00:17:37No, we're good.
00:17:38Oh, but you're not good.
00:17:40You're bad.
00:17:46But...
00:17:47But what?
00:17:52Maybe it was a mistake.
00:17:55What?
00:17:56Like...
00:17:57For your marriage?
00:17:59I don't know.
00:18:01I...
00:18:01Like, I'm gonna regret it.
00:18:05Veronica, I think you're just being really hard on yourself.
00:18:09Okay?
00:18:10Remember, this was supposed to be...
00:18:13You're right.
00:18:14Of course I am.
00:18:29What's wrong?
00:18:35Nothing.
00:18:37You feel like we shouldn't have done it?
00:18:39Gillian said I shouldn't feel that way.
00:18:41You talked to Gillian about this, but not me.
00:18:44She's objective.
00:18:47She...
00:18:48She wasn't there.
00:18:53It's more than that.
00:18:54Enjoy it?
00:18:55Is that a trick question?
00:18:59Trying to set me up to be the bad guy?
00:19:02No.
00:19:02Never mind.
00:19:04I can tell you enjoyed it.
00:19:13Not because I don't love you.
00:19:17Right?
00:19:18Or because I wanted to be a regular thing.
00:19:21I know.
00:19:25I know.
00:19:27So...
00:19:28We're good?
00:19:34Yeah.
00:19:38I am so sorry.
00:19:40I'm late.
00:19:44No worries.
00:19:57No worries.
00:19:59Wasn't that hot?
00:20:04Um...
00:20:05Yeah, I suppose it was.
00:20:11So you want to do it again?
00:20:13What?
00:20:18Um...
00:20:18Because it was always just supposed to be a one-time thing.
00:20:21Why just one time?
00:20:23What's gotten into you?
00:20:26What has gotten...
00:20:27Do you regret it?
00:20:29Why are you acting like this?
00:20:31Acting like what?
00:20:32Like I'm not just a little pawn that you can move around in your life however you see fit
00:20:35without even thinking for a second how it might affect me?
00:20:43Lexi!
00:20:53It's just so weird.
00:20:54For as long as I've been training with her,
00:20:56she's never acted like this.
00:20:58It's like she's just become a different...
00:21:12Lexi?
00:21:13Hey!
00:21:14I...
00:21:15I was just in the neighborhood and I figured I'd stop by.
00:21:19It smells good.
00:21:20What are you cooking?
00:21:22Um...
00:21:22Can I join?
00:21:24No.
00:21:25Listen, Lexi, after what happened today, I think...
00:21:28Oh...
00:21:29Yeah, um...
00:21:31I'm sorry.
00:21:33I let my emotions get the better of me.
00:21:35I just...
00:21:36wanted to come by and...
00:21:38talk to you about maybe you lending me...
00:21:41$5,000?
00:21:43No.
00:21:44You can't borrow $5,000.
00:21:47Why not?
00:21:49I don't have to give you a reason.
00:21:52Listen, it's really strange that you're just coming in here out of nowhere, asking for money.
00:21:59But we're friends.
00:22:01We're more than friends.
00:22:03And you have so much money.
00:22:07Why are you being so selfish?
00:22:09All right, that's enough.
00:22:11Yeah, you need to leave.
00:22:13And you're obviously fired.
00:22:16You don't mean that.
00:22:17I do.
00:22:20But...
00:22:21you promised.
00:22:23That was...
00:22:24There's many sides of me.
00:22:27Many sides.
00:22:29You'll see.
00:22:45Clearly, she's disturbed.
00:22:48It was so unsettling.
00:22:51What do I do?
00:22:52You could report her at the gym.
00:22:55I mean, coming over to your place like that definitely crossed professional boundaries.
00:22:58Obviously, I was the one who crashed professional boundaries first.
00:23:03I invited her over to...
00:23:05Fee.
00:23:06I'm sorry.
00:23:08This is a little bit out of my wheelhouse.
00:23:10I've never come across a psycho trainer situation before.
00:23:16Well, that makes two of us.
00:23:24Dad?
00:23:25Well, look who's here.
00:23:30I'll just get right to it.
00:23:34We have decided
00:23:37that you
00:23:38are going to be the new face of Ballard Brands.
00:23:41What?
00:23:42Donna says that market research shows
00:23:44that people like young faces more than old ones.
00:23:48So...
00:23:48in a few days.
00:23:50That's so soon.
00:23:51Ah, the metrics were so going in this direction.
00:23:56Your Instagram following is growing.
00:23:59That's an Instagram that I don't even personally post on.
00:24:03This was inevitable.
00:24:05You are the future of the brand.
00:24:08You're smart, young, modern, still family-friendly.
00:24:15You're the whole package.
00:24:18I just...
00:24:20wasn't prepared for the future to...
00:24:23be now.
00:24:24We never are.
00:24:38Okay.
00:24:42So...
00:24:45What do you think?
00:24:46I don't know, Donna.
00:24:50It's...
00:24:52It's a lot.
00:24:54It's a good thing, right?
00:24:57Right.
00:24:59You don't seem excited.
00:25:04I'm just...
00:25:06feeling vulnerable.
00:25:09I wasn't prepared to be so...
00:25:12Do you think he'll let me...
00:25:14move the brand in a more progressive direction?
00:25:17Not while he's alive.
00:25:20Oops.
00:25:20Did I say that out loud?
00:25:25But seriously...
00:25:27I've worked with him since before you were born.
00:25:30And it's a losing battle on that front.
00:25:32Yes.
00:25:33He is...
00:25:35set in his ways.
00:25:37He is a petrified forest.
00:25:40He will not sway.
00:25:42So we just keep it on traditional.
00:25:45Understood.
00:25:47Just think.
00:25:49Big picture.
00:25:53You can do with it what you want.
00:25:57That's the plan.
00:25:59It is.
00:26:02And speaking of plan...
00:26:08You and Jordan should think about having a baby sooner than later.
00:26:15Just imagine how cute your baby will be in our cereal commercials.
00:26:20We are going to start trying next year.
00:26:23Good.
00:26:24It'll be a good look for you guys.
00:26:28A good look.
00:26:29Great.
00:26:36Resent me.
00:26:38Why?
00:26:41Did you ever fantasize about running the company?
00:26:47It's Ballard Family Brands, darling.
00:26:51Yes, but you've worked so hard for so long.
00:26:55Oh, and I plan to retire even harder.
00:27:01Besides, I'm a behind-the-scenes type of person.
00:27:11And do you know what they say?
00:27:14The higher up you go, the bigger the target on you.
00:27:18I'm not as strong as you.
00:27:30She wanted to marry the man of her dreams.
00:27:32It's the most brutal murder scene that I've ever experienced.
00:27:34A nude.
00:27:35I told you, you're not my trainer anymore.
00:27:38I fired you.
00:27:43I thought that that was a misunderstanding.
00:27:46You promised me that this wouldn't happen.
00:27:51Are you going to keep your promises?
00:27:53I'm sorry if I misled you, but...
00:27:56You're just going to throw me away like garbage.
00:27:58Huh?
00:27:58Like garbage?
00:27:59Keep...
00:28:00And you are not the lead.
00:28:02I am.
00:28:09I am.
00:28:58Scared me half to death.
00:28:59I'm so sorry, but you're Mrs. Ballard Glenn, right?
00:29:03Yes.
00:29:04The manager.
00:29:05He's been looking for you, and he needs to talk to you right away.
00:29:08About what?
00:29:10I don't know.
00:29:11I'm sorry.
00:29:12But he said it was important.
00:29:15Okay.
00:29:17Have a good one.
00:29:20So we have 10.30 and 11.30, and then we finish the 12th.
00:29:24Got some pretty disturbing news from one of our employees, Miss Lexi Wolf.
00:29:28She left here in tears.
00:29:30What do you mean disturbing?
00:29:33Well, she said you've been sexually harassing her, stalking her, and demeaning her.
00:29:41So she refused to come back to work unless your membership be revoked.
00:29:45Well, that's just not true.
00:29:47If anything, she has been the one...
00:29:50Look.
00:29:52Right.
00:29:53Well, if you want to dispute this, you can file a counter-report, and then we can get
00:29:57the authorities involved.
00:29:58The authorities?
00:30:00Mrs. Ballard Glenn, as you can imagine, we take this sort of thing very seriously.
00:30:05No, I don't want to...
00:30:06to work on the condition that you leave immediately, and that you pay for the remaining training
00:30:12sessions, which is... I guess 20 sessions.
00:30:19This is ridiculous.
00:30:20She's a liar.
00:30:22Hey, do you want to dispute this?
00:30:24No, just revoke my membership.
00:30:26I don't care.
00:30:27Well, I must advise you that if you do come back, we will be forced to take...
00:30:32Why would I ever want to come back here?
00:30:46What the hell do you...
00:30:48Was it humiliating when they kicked you out?
00:30:51Why are you doing this to me?
00:30:53Mmm, it's restitution for the past.
00:30:57What past?
00:30:58You're not making any sense.
00:30:59Let's just start with you giving me $50,000.
00:31:03Giving you?
00:31:04I thought it was a $5,000 loan.
00:31:07No, no, you have to learn to give.
00:31:09And your lack of interest has been quite substantial, so the price has gone up.
00:31:12I mean, if you had just paid me when I first asked you to, then...
00:31:16So it's about money.
00:31:17Well, it's about so many things, but...
00:31:20Let me ask you a question.
00:31:21What?
00:31:23What do you think would happen...
00:31:26If...
00:31:26I shared with the world...
00:31:28What you...
00:31:29Me...
00:31:29Your American brand.
00:31:30So you're blackmailing me.
00:31:35I'm just telling you what the stakes are.
00:31:44Veronica.
00:31:46Ready for a note take?
00:31:48Uh, yes.
00:31:49Sorry.
00:31:50You alright?
00:31:52Yeah, of course.
00:31:54Alright, Kelton.
00:31:55Uh, give me a sec.
00:31:56Check focus.
00:32:00All set.
00:32:01Alright, guys.
00:32:03Quiet on set.
00:32:04Alright.
00:32:04This is a new face for Crunchers.
00:32:06Take five.
00:32:08And...
00:32:08Action.
00:32:12I am honored to be in your home.
00:32:15As a new face of Ballard.
00:32:20From our family to yours, for over a hundred years.
00:32:25And cut!
00:32:26I think we got that time.
00:32:44What am I going to do, Jordan?
00:32:47First thing to remember is, it's not just you.
00:32:50We're in this together, okay?
00:32:52Yeah, except...
00:32:53None of...
00:32:54You know, the thing is...
00:32:56I tried to call her to give her the money.
00:32:59And her phone's disconnected.
00:33:01That's weird.
00:33:02How are you supposed to pay her?
00:33:04I don't know.
00:33:04I think she just wants me to live in fear.
00:33:07So that she has all the control.
00:33:10I mean, how did she keep...
00:33:12The fact that she's crazy.
00:33:14Hidden for three years.
00:33:18Everyone can hide their crazy to some degree.
00:33:21Okay.
00:33:22Okay.
00:33:35Let's do it.
00:33:40I don't know.
00:34:09Hi. I'm here to fix the faucet.
00:34:13Okay. All right. Thank you.
00:34:26Yes. Hello.
00:34:27My name is Sally Langley with the Business Era.
00:34:30I'm so sorry for the technical issues.
00:34:33We're having a problem with our camera, but it doesn't matter.
00:34:36Everyone's just here to see you.
00:34:39Thank you. Don't even worry.
00:34:42Excuse me one moment.
00:34:44I'm sorry, but you'd have to ask me to check in and see how you do.
00:34:50You know how I use.
00:34:52Of course.
00:34:55I'm sorry. Where were we?
00:34:58No worries. I know your fault.
00:35:00Absolutely.
00:35:01All right. First, I want to talk to you about your image.
00:35:04I've watched lots of your interviews.
00:35:06I've looked at your social media.
00:35:07And I see that you've very well crafted this all-American, wholesome, girl-next-door persona.
00:35:17Would you say that's real, you?
00:35:20Um, what do you mean?
00:35:24It's so obviously a calculated facade meant to align with the Ballard's 1950s old-fashioned Americana fantasy
00:35:31that never really existed in the first place.
00:35:34Why not drop the illusion and show the whole world the real Veronica?
00:35:39I'm sorry, but-
00:35:40I think we both know that the real-
00:35:42Hit piece. I'm, uh, gonna have to hit this.
00:35:43Do you mean that it's hitting a little too close down?
00:35:51That obviously was not somebody from-
00:35:55Obviously.
00:35:57Let's just forget about all this.
00:36:01No need to bore Dad with the details.
00:36:04Of course not.
00:36:12I obviously didn't mention anything about the three-way.
00:36:16Thankfully, neither did she.
00:36:21Um, can we get the glasses?
00:36:24Yeah.
00:36:25Well, I guess I should prepare myself.
00:36:28What do you mean?
00:36:29Well, in case she goes to the tabloids or something.
00:36:32I guess I have to-
00:36:33Why?
00:36:35Yeah, you're right.
00:36:37But you know what's got me most unsettled?
00:36:40What?
00:36:42She hasn't asked for the money again.
00:36:44But why?
00:36:47Good question.
00:36:54Hey!
00:37:03What the hell are you doing here?
00:37:08Hey, Lexi!
00:37:10Do you want the money or not?
00:37:12I'm done with this.
00:37:14I want all sorts of things from you.
00:37:19I want your love.
00:37:23I want your anger.
00:37:27And I want your pain.
00:37:29You're a sick bitch.
00:37:33Well, looks like I already have your anger.
00:37:37You don't have the leverage you think you do.
00:37:40It's my word against yours.
00:37:47Market research shows that pivoting to Veronica
00:37:50has us up 37% across all demographics.
00:37:55And the thing that popped out of us the most
00:37:58was the age group.
00:38:0027% of that
00:38:02are between 15 and 35.
00:38:05What does that tell us?
00:38:07Social media?
00:38:20I have to take this.
00:38:28My word against yours.
00:38:3150,000.
00:38:32Exactly.
00:38:37Veronica.
00:38:40Are you okay?
00:38:43I'm so, I'm so, so sorry.
00:38:45What's going on?
00:38:46You just walked out of the meeting.
00:38:51I, I just, I don't feel very well.
00:38:55I, I think I should go home and rest.
00:38:58Feel better.
00:39:00And let me know if you can't do
00:39:01the Lunger's launch presentation on Friday.
00:39:04No, I, I'll be there.
00:39:06I promise.
00:39:08All right, then.
00:39:17Hey, what's up?
00:39:19There's a video.
00:39:20She made a video.
00:39:22What am I going to do?
00:39:24Wait, wait, hold on.
00:39:25A video?
00:39:26Yeah, I don't know.
00:39:27Somehow she recorded us that night.
00:39:28She just sent it to my work email, Gillian.
00:39:30I'm freaking out.
00:39:32Okay.
00:39:33Okay.
00:39:33Um, I need you to take a deep breath.
00:39:36You take a deep breath.
00:39:38I need solutions right now.
00:39:41I'm sorry.
00:39:42I'm sorry for snapping at you.
00:39:45It's okay.
00:39:46I get it.
00:39:48All right.
00:39:49We need to, uh,
00:39:51we need to figure out a plan.
00:39:53Here, something on her.
00:39:56Leverage.
00:39:57I've already Googled the hell out of her.
00:39:59It's like she doesn't exist.
00:40:02Okay.
00:40:04All right, wait a minute.
00:40:05Um, I have an idea.
00:40:09Okay, I'm listening.
00:40:11I'm not going to suggest the police
00:40:12because I know you don't want that,
00:40:14but I,
00:40:14I really think that we should hire
00:40:17a private investigator.
00:40:19Someone like her
00:40:20probably hasn't colored in the lines
00:40:22her entire life.
00:40:23There has got to be something
00:40:25out there from her past
00:40:27that we can use.
00:40:29I'm telling you,
00:40:30there is nothing out there.
00:40:34Wait a minute.
00:40:36Then I will.
00:40:41Veronica, I,
00:40:43I, I don't know about this.
00:40:45If there's anything I've learned,
00:40:47you can't count on anyone else
00:40:48to solve your problems.
00:40:53Do you even know where she lives?
00:40:57Not yet.
00:41:11Hey, how was your day, honey?
00:41:13Let's just go to the bank
00:41:14and get this over with.
00:41:15I'll get your blood money.
00:41:17Let's throw right.
00:41:18Okay, we can talk about
00:41:19the money in a bit,
00:41:19but first let me ask you something.
00:41:24When was the last time
00:41:25you went to church?
00:41:28Church?
00:41:29Church.
00:41:30Isn't your dad
00:41:31one of the main benefactors
00:41:32at Sacred Heart?
00:41:34How do you even...
00:41:36So it's been a while.
00:41:40Christmas Mass
00:41:41is probably the last time
00:41:43that I...
00:41:44But what does this have to do
00:41:45with anything?
00:41:46Maybe you should start
00:41:47going more often.
00:41:51You're overdue
00:41:52for confession.
00:41:55And what is it
00:41:56that you want me to confess?
00:41:58That I've had sex
00:42:00with what you're talking about.
00:42:01But I'm sure
00:42:02that your confession
00:42:03would take considerably
00:42:04longer than mine.
00:42:06My conscience is clean.
00:42:08You have no conscience.
00:42:15You're right.
00:42:17Let's go to the bank.
00:42:39I have to know.
00:42:41How did...
00:42:43Why didn't you just
00:42:44send the video
00:42:44from the beginning?
00:42:45I mean,
00:42:45I figured if I couldn't
00:42:46get off with you again,
00:42:47then I could get off on
00:42:49messing with your
00:42:50perfect life.
00:42:51So this is all
00:42:52just a game to you?
00:42:55No.
00:42:56No, not at all.
00:42:58No, I genuinely felt
00:42:59a real connection
00:43:00between the three of us.
00:43:04You need help.
00:43:11But you're helping me.
00:43:25Thank you for that,
00:43:26my love.
00:44:04She wanted to marry the...
00:47:36So, ultimately, it's our brand's natural progression.
00:47:41I mean, what comes after breakfast?
00:47:43Lunch.
00:47:47Speaking of which, we have a lovely spread right outside, so please, eat up.
00:48:03Well done.
00:48:12No, thank you.
00:48:14I think that went very well.
00:48:17I do, too.
00:48:18Yes.
00:48:19So, another hundred and we get to dinner.
00:48:21A hundred and nine.
00:48:28I see someone.
00:48:29I see someone I know.
00:48:29Okay.
00:48:34Leonard, may I interrupt?
00:48:36Yes, of course.
00:48:37I was just having a conversation with this charming young lady.
00:48:40Lexi, was it?
00:48:41Lexi, was it?
00:48:41That's right, Leonard.
00:48:42Pleasure.
00:48:45I already gave you 50 grand.
00:48:48What the hell are you doing here?
00:48:51Mingling.
00:48:52I did notice, though, that you didn't serve any of your own product to the guests here.
00:48:57Hmm.
00:48:58I guess lunchers is just for a hundred thousand.
00:49:02I don't have that kind of liquidity, Lexi.
00:49:05Hmm.
00:49:05Ask daddy.
00:49:07I can't ask him.
00:49:08No, you don't want to ask him.
00:49:11I'll ask him.
00:49:22A hundred thousand.
00:49:24Meet me at Sacred Heart in exactly 48 hours.
00:49:32Why do you look so worried, hmm?
00:49:35It's part of our game.
00:49:38Games are supposed to be fun, right?
00:49:51I think you should give her what she wants.
00:49:58And what am I supposed to say to him?
00:50:00I don't know.
00:50:04Why does this all come down to me?
00:50:08Don't you think I hate that it comes down on you?
00:50:12Right, and you know my family doesn't have any money.
00:50:14Trust me, if I could, I would ask.
00:50:17I would steal it if I thought I would fix things for you.
00:50:27It's okay.
00:50:33So?
00:50:38What do I say to him?
00:50:40Say?
00:50:44Say it's for a vacation.
00:50:47In Florida.
00:50:49Really?
00:50:50It's that, or we have her arrested for blackmail.
00:50:52All right, but then all this gets out.
00:50:57Those are our choices.
00:51:02I said no.
00:51:05Absolutely.
00:51:06No, it is always a good time to talk with my daughter.
00:51:10This discussion is over.
00:51:16Everything all right?
00:51:18Yeah, why?
00:51:20Well, lately you've seemed, um...
00:51:24preoccupied.
00:51:27Oh, I'm fine.
00:51:29It's just a learning curve.
00:51:31Second thoughts?
00:51:33No.
00:51:34No.
00:51:35Not at all.
00:51:36Because I don't want you to feel any pressure.
00:51:39I want this to be something that you want.
00:51:42Dad, don't worry.
00:51:45I want this.
00:51:46But, Bill, um...
00:51:50Jordan and I found a beach house in Florida.
00:51:55And we'd like to buy it.
00:51:57That's wonderful.
00:52:00Yeah, um...
00:52:02We want to fly out and take a look at it.
00:52:07But...
00:52:09But...
00:52:13We're short on the down payment.
00:52:16How short?
00:52:19$100,000.
00:52:21And you'd like me to loan you the money?
00:52:24Well, all of my savings went into the remodel,
00:52:27and unless you'd give me access to my...
00:52:30No time.
00:52:31What's the rush?
00:52:33Well, the property is, um...
00:52:36Time-sensitive.
00:52:38Exactly.
00:52:40And we really want it.
00:52:50You know why I'm not going to give you the money?
00:52:57Take a look at some of the kids you went to private school with.
00:53:00So many of them are still spoiled, confused, aimless children.
00:53:06They never really grew up ready for the real world.
00:53:08But I work hard, Dad.
00:53:21Veronica.
00:53:23You're not upset with me, are you?
00:53:25No.
00:53:26I'm not upset at you.
00:53:33Oh, Fee.
00:53:35You must be feeling so trapped.
00:53:38I hate to say it, but I think you only have one option.
00:53:41Going to the police is not an option.
00:53:43Honey, it's your only option.
00:53:45Not only would I probably be fired for violating my morality clause,
00:53:48but it's a nightmare that the controversy would cause my father.
00:53:55I'm here.
00:53:56Gotta go.
00:53:57Okay.
00:53:58Good luck.
00:54:11You don't have it, do you?
00:54:16No.
00:54:17I don't.
00:54:19I asked my dad and he didn't give it to me.
00:54:21I don't want excuses.
00:54:25I want $100,000.
00:54:29Release the video.
00:54:32Then what?
00:54:33Then your blackmailing stops.
00:54:36And I'm going to watch your family brand get...
00:54:39Salid.
00:54:40But I have tried...
00:54:41Respect the game.
00:54:45Respect me.
00:54:57I want the taste of fear.
00:55:00Especially yours.
00:55:04God, give me the strength to bestow your justice upon the wicked.
00:55:08God, give me the strength to bestow your justice upon the wicked.
00:55:13God, give me the strength to bestow your justice upon the wicked.
00:55:17God, give me this drink.
00:55:20Amen.
00:55:23I found it was food ball.
00:55:27She took Cody.
00:55:29Why didn't you call me?
00:55:30Tutoring was canceled.
00:55:31I just got home.
00:55:34It's a nightmare.
00:55:35This can't be happening.
00:55:37Wait, where are you going?
00:55:38To get Cody.
00:55:40You coming?
00:55:41Of course I am.
00:56:00God, it looks deserted.
00:56:02Yeah, I know.
00:56:05What should we do now?
00:56:10We wait.
00:56:14For how long?
00:56:19For as long as it takes.
00:56:36What's going on?
00:56:39She never came home.
00:56:43Obviously, I'll call in sick.
00:56:45Yeah, I don't want to.
00:56:51If anything happens to him, I'm sorry.
00:56:54Cody's safe.
00:56:55For now.
00:56:57But the amount's gone up.
00:56:59$150,000.
00:57:00In 24 hours.
00:57:01In cash.
00:57:03Let me make one thing clear.
00:57:05If you don't pay up,
00:57:08you can say goodbye to your dog.
00:57:13What are we going to do?
00:57:15I don't know.
00:57:19What about...
00:57:21What?
00:57:23What?
00:57:24I mean...
00:57:48My grandmother gave me this on her deathbed.
00:57:52And her mother before that.
00:57:54I remember when she gave it to you.
00:57:57Veronica, are you sure you want to do this?
00:58:01We have no choice.
00:58:07I knew it wouldn't be enough.
00:58:12I'm sorry, honey.
00:58:15You know what?
00:58:16I've...
00:58:16I've had enough.
00:58:18I'm just going to go to the police.
00:58:20Oh, you sure?
00:58:22Yeah, I don't have any other choice.
00:58:26Maybe you should tell your father first.
00:58:28Really?
00:58:29Shouldn't he be the first to know?
00:58:33You know, and he might be able to pay her off
00:58:34with one of those legal agreements.
00:58:38I think the rich and powerful
00:58:39uses it all the time.
00:58:42It's like, uh...
00:58:45It's like legalized blackmail.
00:58:48Of course, I'll get fired.
00:58:53But I suppose I should just go now
00:58:54and let him make that choice.
00:58:56You haven't slept.
00:58:58You haven't eaten.
00:58:59You haven't showered.
00:59:01Don't you think you should wait
00:59:02until it gets off work?
00:59:04I just don't want to waste any more time.
00:59:07I know.
00:59:08Look, we have come this far.
00:59:11And it's all going to end
00:59:12one way or the other.
00:59:13I don't think a few hours
00:59:14is going to make a difference.
00:59:17Right?
00:59:17You want to be in the right state of mind
00:59:18when you talk to him.
00:59:20You know, self-care is important
00:59:21in times like these.
00:59:24Not that we've been
00:59:25in times like these before.
00:59:27But...
00:59:30Although I don't think
00:59:30I could sleep right now.
00:59:32Like, it's worth a try.
00:59:40Come on, I'll make you some food.
00:59:46Go away.
00:59:47Come home.
00:59:58Come on.
01:00:01Go home.
01:00:16I barely recognize you with your new hairdo.
01:00:21That's because it's my old hairdo.
01:00:25So, is it done?
01:00:27Yes.
01:00:29I put two sleeping pills in her food.
01:00:32She'll be knocked out for quite a while.
01:00:35Plenty of time to do what we need to do.
01:00:40Look, you know I didn't want it to go this way.
01:00:43In the beginning, it was just supposed to be enough so we could get away.
01:00:46It goes somewhere and reinvent ourselves.
01:00:49I know, I know.
01:00:51But I have my reasons for asking for the money.
01:00:55Money makes the world go around, right?
01:00:58So what better way to shatter it than by taking it away?
01:01:02You know I hate being poor Mr. Veronica Ballard.
01:01:06The schoolteacher that lives off your family's money.
01:01:10But I don't understand why this has become so personal against her.
01:01:15If I told you my reasons, I'd have to kill you.
01:01:39It's risky, Lexi.
01:01:41The bigger the risk, the bigger the reward.
01:01:49Burner pumps.
01:01:55And...
01:02:01One.
01:02:12Come on.
01:02:13We gotta hurry.
01:02:17Okay.
01:02:19I know that...
01:02:29Six-thirty.
01:02:32But I sat in the board.
01:02:34Jordan!
01:02:36Jordan!
01:02:44As you can see, the men in your life are with me.
01:02:49So, if you want them back, you'll send me a million dollars worth of crypto by the end of the
01:02:54day tomorrow.
01:02:54With your father indisposed about calling the police.
01:03:03If I feel cornered at all, I'm taking them all down with me.
01:03:13Sins of the father and of the daughter will be paid.
01:03:28God, he was heavy.
01:03:31But I think I think my back out.
01:03:35Maybe you should go to a yoga class.
01:03:39How can you be joking at a time like this?
01:03:41A.
01:03:45All right, if he finds out it's me, then we have to...
01:03:47Kill him?
01:03:49Oh, come on.
01:03:51What's one less rich...
01:03:52Stop.
01:03:53Axie.
01:03:57Relax.
01:03:58The amount of ketamine we gave him will keep him asleep for hours.
01:04:02Plus, it eliminates the possibility of him remembering anything.
01:04:06I don't know.
01:04:07I don't...
01:04:09Yeah, his heart just feels so wrong.
01:04:11Oh, my God.
01:04:12Would you just stop with the whispering?
01:04:24Done.
01:04:26I called all the board members, and they're all in agreement.
01:04:29The funds will be released by the end of the day.
01:04:31And you're sure you don't want to call the police?
01:04:34Yes, I'm positive.
01:04:35I don't want anything to happen to Jordan and my father.
01:04:38But that's not going to stop you from looking for them, is it?
01:04:43Absolutely not.
01:04:46Okay.
01:04:49Where do we start?
01:04:51You really did want it to go this way the whole time, didn't you?
01:04:55God, what was I thinking?
01:04:59You know, this whole faking my death thing.
01:05:03No.
01:05:04No.
01:05:07I don't have to fake it.
01:05:16Sorry.
01:05:17I know I was going to sled you a little.
01:05:21My bad.
01:05:25We have to assume she's not working alone.
01:05:28She can't kidnap two grown men by herself.
01:05:30That's true, but she is a personal trainer.
01:05:34And she keeps referring to the past and sacred heart and confessions and meeting at a church.
01:05:43But I've looked through that yearbook a hundred times, and she's not in there.
01:05:48There's no one in there that even resembles her.
01:05:53Could she have had plastic surgery?
01:05:56I mean, if she did, how would I...
01:06:05There was this one girl.
01:06:08But I forget her name.
01:06:10Everyone made fun of her.
01:06:11She was shy and plain looking.
01:06:14Nothing.
01:06:14Like...
01:06:18That's her.
01:06:20Sarah Birch.
01:06:23Wow, Lacey.
01:06:31Sounds familiar?
01:06:36Sacred heart?
01:06:39I know.
01:06:39I looked a lot.
01:06:42But Jordan...
01:06:44You were so in love.
01:06:45I loved you.
01:06:47You were in love with me.
01:06:49At least that's how it felt anyway.
01:06:53Do you remember when, uh...
01:06:56You picked up my books for me when you were walking me home?
01:06:59No.
01:07:01Hmm, I knew.
01:07:03I knew from that moment that what we had was something special.
01:07:09Even if you didn't say anything...
01:07:13You're delusional.
01:07:17Veronica...
01:07:21Yes.
01:07:24Veronica.
01:07:25Veronica.
01:07:26She...
01:07:28Stole you from me.
01:07:38I saw you.
01:07:43Premarital sex.
01:07:46In a school that was part of a church.
01:07:52Turns out...
01:07:54Even back then...
01:08:03It's Sarah.
01:08:07Sarah.
01:08:14What are you up to, V?
01:08:16Just a little detective work.
01:08:21Bingo.
01:08:23She inherited a house from her mother's sister when she died.
01:08:37A Lifetime Original Movie.
01:08:44Do you remember my mother?
01:08:48She worked in the cafeteria.
01:08:53She cleaned toilets at night.
01:08:56Just so I could go to your fancy school.
01:09:02After she died...
01:09:05They kicked me out.
01:09:12They asked you.
01:09:19If they could use some of the money from the scholarship fund that you created.
01:09:25To pay for the rest of my education.
01:09:33You said...
01:09:34No.
01:09:36Because...
01:09:37I was the janitor's daughter.
01:09:40And that...
01:09:41made the school look bad.
01:09:45So...
01:09:47I...
01:09:50I changed my name.
01:09:53I...
01:09:56I found my way into her life.
01:09:59And I waited.
01:10:00Answered my prayers.
01:10:05I...
01:10:13I...
01:10:15I...
01:10:16I...
01:10:18I...
01:10:25I...
01:10:26I...
01:10:28I...
01:10:29I...
01:10:30I...
01:10:31I...
01:10:32Oh, my God.
01:11:13Oh, my God.
01:11:31Oh, my God.
01:11:47Oh, my God.
01:11:50Oh, my God.
01:11:52Oh, my God.
01:11:54No, please don't.
01:11:56I'll stop it if you throw that aside.
01:12:08You killed Jordan?
01:12:09He was in on it.
01:12:12I mean, you didn't know the whole story?
01:12:17But let's just say the whole menage a trois was not the first time that him and I had been
01:12:23intimate.
01:12:33God, I love it when you're feisty.
01:12:36God, I love it when you're feisty.
01:13:06Goodbye, William.
01:13:08Lexi, wait.
01:13:11Do you remember our first kids?
01:13:20I do.
01:13:23I do.
01:13:32Oh, Veronica.
01:13:41Come on.
01:13:43Come on.
01:13:45Come on.
01:13:48Come on.
01:13:50Come on.
01:14:06and for calling the police.
01:14:08What are best friends for?
01:14:12Oh, all of it.
01:14:24Why does the other side feel so empty?
01:14:29Because Jordan wasn't the man you thought he was.
01:14:33I know it's a lot to process.
01:14:35Right now.
01:14:37But it will get easier.
01:14:43Promise?
01:14:44Absolutely.
01:14:46Little by little, day by day.
01:14:52You know what, Pam?
01:14:54I'll do it, Pam.
01:14:54I'll do it.
01:15:02Bye.
01:15:10Love you all.
01:15:14Bye.
01:15:14Bye-bye.
01:15:15Bye-bye.
01:15:15Bye-bye.
01:15:17Bye-bye.
01:15:20Bye-bye.
