00:31:38I can't wait.
00:31:39Yeah.
00:31:40What's going on here?
00:31:42Waiting for the new CEO, obviously.
00:31:46Nova got bowed out yesterday.
00:31:47Word is his rich, young, and single.
00:31:50I call dips.
00:31:52Oh, Claire.
00:31:54Don't forget your perfect Jean baby bat with Ryder.
00:31:58Maybe you could try your luck with the new CEO.
00:32:01Lots of old money there.
00:32:03With a face like that, land the CEO?
00:32:06Please.
00:32:07What are you going to do, sneak into his bed and turkey base yourself?
00:32:13I don't need to trap anyone, Ryder.
00:32:15Unlike you, I offer value all on my own.
00:32:19Oh, please.
00:32:19You have been so heartbroken, you can't even manage a rebound.
00:32:24What, are you expecting immaculate conception?
00:32:27I don't need divine conception.
00:32:29And for all you know, I'm already pregnant.
00:32:33Please.
00:32:34Keep going.
00:32:46Welcome to Nova, Mr. Reed.
00:32:52Your overall health looks fine, but your AMH levels are low, meaning your ovarian reserves are below average for your
00:32:59age.
00:33:00Um, will that make it hard to get pregnant?
00:33:05Not always.
00:33:06But if you want children, I would recommend you start trying soon.
00:33:10Soon?
00:33:12How soon?
00:33:14Ideally within three months.
00:33:15Yes.
00:33:18Oh my god.
00:33:20Sweetheart.
00:33:21Please.
00:33:22Don't cry.
00:33:24Having you was the best thing I ever did.
00:33:28Well.
00:33:29I just hope you'll have children of your own one day.
00:33:33After I'm gone.
00:33:34Yeah.
00:33:37I promise.
00:33:40I love you so much.
00:33:42I love you, sweetie.
00:33:44I have always wanted kids.
00:33:48Maybe it's time.
00:34:04Oh.
00:34:05Oh.
00:34:08I'm so sorry.
00:34:10Oh my god.
00:34:10I'm so sorry.
00:34:11I was...
00:34:12I think that's fine.
00:34:14Hey, I'm sorry.
00:34:21Didn't see that coming.
00:34:24Handsome guy.
00:34:25Unexpected kiss.
00:34:29Oh.
00:34:31Oh.
00:34:32Are you okay?
00:34:35Okay.
00:34:43Well, well.
00:34:44If it isn't my perfect innocent ex.
00:34:47What's the occasion?
00:34:49Are you pregnant too?
00:34:52I'm not as efficient as you, Ryder.
00:34:54We broke up, what, three months ago?
00:34:57And Candy is six months along.
00:34:59Impressive timeline.
00:35:01Please!
00:35:02You couldn't keep a man, let alone raise a kid?
00:35:06Or, are you here to raid the sperm bank and DIY a family?
00:35:13Get that back!
00:35:14Get that back!
00:35:15Yes?
00:35:17If you're not married by 30, you can the trust and the company go to your brother.
00:35:21It's final.
00:35:22Look, Mom.
00:35:23Seriously, I...
00:35:28Low AMH diminished ovarian reserve recommended to start trying within three months.
00:35:35For her.
00:35:36For her.
00:35:37Wow.
00:35:38Looks like the golden goose is running out of eggs, huh?
00:35:41This is truly a plot twist.
00:35:53I'm really worried about you, Claire.
00:35:55I mean, a girl with your... history?
00:35:57Do you think you're going to be able to snag a sperm donor before your eggs are all dried up?
00:36:01You're basically a clearance rack.
00:36:04Expired, free, and still no takers.
00:36:06So taker.
00:36:09You can rest assured.
00:36:10I already have a boyfriend.
00:36:13Wait.
00:36:13Yeah.
00:36:15MIT.
00:36:166-2.
00:36:17IQ off the charts.
00:36:19Trust fund heir.
00:36:20Practically built for greatness.
00:36:22Way better than loser rider.
00:36:26Boyfriend?
00:36:27Ugh.
00:36:28Ew.
00:36:29Sure, Claire.
00:36:31Uh, let me guess.
00:36:31He lives in the Canadian wilderness?
00:36:34Or some bullshit like that?
00:36:37And the best thing of all?
00:36:38He has the one thing you can't buy.
00:36:41Oh.
00:36:42Kindness.
00:36:44Funny.
00:36:45You're funny.
00:36:46How about we make a bet?
00:36:47If you're not pregnant within, say, three months, you have to admit the truth.
00:36:53You are just a dried up old woman.
00:36:55You have to admit it.
00:36:57Out loud.
00:36:58And to the public.
00:36:59Oh, baby.
00:37:00You're bad.
00:37:02Little violin for you.
00:37:06And if I win?
00:37:07You stray through the office naked.
00:37:09Screaming that you are nothing but a little slimy suck up bitch boy.
00:37:17Deal.
00:37:17Game on, Miss Nobody Wants You.
00:37:20Nobody Wants You.
00:37:23Oh my god.
00:37:25What the fuck did I just do?
00:37:29Even the sperm banks are booked six months out.
00:37:31And I only have three.
00:37:33Where the hell am I gonna find the perfect gene donor boyfriend?
00:37:37Oh god, someone help me.
00:37:39Now that's interesting.
00:37:43You know,
00:37:45I think I could help with that.
00:37:55Ethan Reed.
00:37:56M.I.T. PhD.
00:37:58IQ 200.
00:37:59That's my medical report.
00:38:00No genetic disorders.
00:38:02Clean family history.
00:38:03I take every bucks on your donor wishlist.
00:38:08Okay.
00:38:10What's the catch?
00:38:12You marry me contractually three months just long enough to shut my family up and lock in my inheritance.
00:38:18And in return, you get my sperm.
00:38:22And we get you pregnant just in time to win your little bet.
00:38:25That's really all you want?
00:38:26A paper marriage?
00:38:29Look, Claire.
00:38:31I'm not looking for love.
00:38:32I'm looking for efficiency.
00:38:36Honestly, this might be the fastest route to motherhood.
00:38:43Alright.
00:38:44Deal.
00:38:54Boss.
00:38:56Prenuptial agreement.
00:39:03Thanks.
00:39:05Okay.
00:39:07Three rounds of artificial insemination.
00:39:09Temporary cohabitation to keep up party appearances.
00:39:13Contract terminates after three months.
00:39:16I'd like to add one more turn.
00:39:18Oh.
00:39:19Financial independence.
00:39:21I don't want anyone thinking I'm some gold digger.
00:39:25Fair enough.
00:39:26If that's what you want, I'm in.
00:39:29Great.
00:39:30Great.
00:39:35Thank you. Lovely.
00:39:37Excuse me, Mr. Reid.
00:39:39Are you ready to head into the collection room for your specimen?
00:39:44Sure.
00:39:46Good luck.
00:39:52Mrs. Reid.
00:39:54Would you like to go in with him?
00:39:55Show him a little...
00:39:56Support?
00:39:57Oh, no.
00:39:58I'm actually...
00:39:59Oh.
00:39:59No, no.
00:40:00Excuse me.

00:41:07I probably should.
00:41:08Yeah.
00:41:09I'm gonna...
00:41:09I'm gonna wait outside.

00:41:29Doctor.
00:41:30Thank you, Mr. Reid.
00:41:31Of course.
00:41:32We'll begin shortly.
00:41:33You can wait outside.
00:41:34Okay.
00:41:36If you need anything, just...
00:41:38Yell for me.
00:41:45Yeah.
00:41:49Boss.
00:41:50You married someone out of the blue?
00:41:52Feels a little impulsive.
00:41:54Even for you.
00:41:55No.
00:41:57No.
00:41:57It's not impulsive.
00:41:58Actually, she's...
00:42:00I don't know.
00:42:01She's...
00:42:02Interesting.
00:42:05Uh...
00:42:06Anyways.
00:42:06What'd you find?
00:42:07Mrs. Reid has been working as a designer at Nova.
00:42:11Her ex cheated on her with his boss, Candy Ashford.
00:42:15Miss Ashford's been making her life hell ever since.
00:42:19Just last week, she killed Mrs. Reid's proposal.
00:42:22Said it wasn't feminine enough.
00:42:25Bye, Nova.
00:42:28Make Claire the new design director.
00:42:30Wait, seriously?
00:42:32Yeah.
00:42:33Look, our marriage may have...
00:42:35A deadline.
00:42:36But she's still my wife.
00:42:38Anyone mistreating my wife is mistreating me.
00:42:41I'm just dead, sir.
00:42:43Now, go get the car ready.
00:42:45We have to go meet Mom.
00:42:46Copy.
00:42:53I'm...
00:42:54Hello?
00:42:55Mr. Reid, the procedure went smoothly.
00:42:58We'll know in four weeks if it was successful.
00:43:00Oh, wonderful.
00:43:07Thank you so much, Mr. Reid.
00:43:09I might actually get to be a mom now.
00:43:13Of course.
00:43:14But, um...
00:43:16You know, we are married now.
00:43:19And you are my wife.
00:43:20Call me Ethan.
00:43:22Fake wife.

00:43:27Right.
00:43:30So, Ethan, you've done your part.
00:43:33When do I get to do mine?
00:43:35Right now.
00:43:37We're about to go meet my mother.
00:43:40Okay.

01:02:39Careful.
01:02:40Claire, you are playing with fire.
01:02:43Mrs. Reed.
01:02:46Holy shit.
01:02:47Yep.
01:02:48Definitely hard.
01:02:50And definitely huge.
01:02:52Oh jeez.
01:02:53I'm, I, um.
01:02:54No, no, it's not really.
01:03:01Okay.
01:03:03That body should come with a warning label.
01:03:10Ugh.
01:03:17I don't know.
01:03:18I don't know.
01:03:19I don't know.
01:03:20I don't know.
01:03:21I don't know.
01:03:22I don't know.
01:03:31I don't know.
01:03:32You made this mess.
01:03:33You clean it up.
01:03:35Uh.
01:03:36Where are you going?
01:03:38Oh.
01:03:39I'm just,
01:03:39I'm just going to go take a cold shower.
01:03:41You know,
01:03:42put out the fire you started.
01:03:52If I'm the new design director,
01:03:55Candy better start packing up her desk.
01:04:05I can't wait.
01:04:06I can't wait.
01:04:08What's going on here?
01:04:10Waiting for the new CEO, obviously.
01:04:13Nova got bowed out yesterday.
01:04:15Where is his rich, young, and single?
01:04:18I call dips.
01:04:19Oh, Claire.
01:04:21Don't forget your perfect jean baby bat with Ryder.
01:04:25Maybe you could try your luck with the new CEO.
01:04:28Lots of old money there.
01:04:30With a face like that, land the CEO?
01:04:33Please.
01:04:34What are you going to do?
01:04:35Sneak into his bed and turkey base yourself?
01:04:40I don't need to trap anyone, Ryder.
01:04:42Unlike you,
01:04:43I offer value all on my own.
01:04:46Oh, please.
01:04:47You have been so heartbroken,
01:04:49you can't even manage a rebound.
01:04:51What, are you expecting?
01:04:52Immaculate conception?
01:04:55I don't need divine conception.
01:04:57And for all you know,
01:04:58I'm already pregnant.
01:05:00Please.
01:05:01Okay, keep going.
01:05:14Welcome to Nova, Mr. Reed.
