Short filmTranscript
00:00:07I woke up in a stranger's bed, but the stranger was my boss.
00:00:23Marry me.
00:00:24He wanted to buy me, like I was a company.
00:00:36The man I loved and the friend I trusted, they were both lying to me.
00:00:47So I signed, not for love, for revenge.
00:00:57Just a weak assistant.
00:01:03They thought I was broken.
00:01:05They had no idea.
00:01:07I was just getting started.
00:01:19I am Chaos.
00:01:21The designer everyone is hunting.
00:01:38I have to get out of here.
00:01:39Now.
00:01:50Good morning, Hallie.
00:01:53Mr. Gardner, this was a mistake.
00:01:57I need to leave.
00:01:58I need to leave.
00:02:03Wear these.
00:02:05What?
00:02:07Given the events of last night, and my position, we need to discuss the path forward.
00:02:17Marriage.
00:02:23A scandal involving the CEO and a junior assistant to be detrimental to the stock price.
00:02:28A sudden marriage can be spun as a whirlwind romance.
00:02:31It solves the PR crisis.
00:02:34I am not marrying you for a stock price.
00:02:37It is a contract.
00:02:38A business arrangement.
00:02:40I have a boyfriend.
00:02:42Irving.
00:02:46A creative director.
00:02:47An obstacle, but hardly an insurmountable one.
00:02:51He didn't answer your calls last night.
00:02:53That doesn't mean anything.
00:02:55Get dressed, Hallie.
00:02:57The car is waiting downstairs.
00:03:13I'm leaving.
00:03:14We are going to pretend this never happened.
00:03:16We will never speak of this again.
00:03:21Hallie.
00:03:22Running doesn't solve problems.
00:03:24It solves this one.
00:03:39Miss Andrews.
00:03:40Mr. Gardner instructed me to take you home.
00:03:46I can take the subway.
00:03:48The doorman is watching, Miss Andrews.
00:03:50And the paparazzi.
00:03:51It would be best to get in.
00:03:56Mr. Gardner rarely loses control.
00:03:58You must be unexpected.
00:04:04Mistakes usually don't involve archival Chanel.
00:04:16Stop the car.
00:04:18Mrs. Andrews, we are in the middle of traffic.
00:04:20Please, stop.
00:04:21There's a CVS right there.
00:04:22I need something.
00:04:34Ezra is a man who takes care of his assets.
00:04:52He lied.
00:04:57You lied.
00:05:12Oh my god, you look like a dad.
00:05:14But listen, they found a woman's ripped dress in Ezra's penthouse suit on Saturday morning.
00:05:19Probably a model he took home from the gala.
00:05:22That's what everyone is saying.
00:05:23They're all trying to guess who.
00:05:28Andrews.
00:05:28This sketch, it's disruptive.
00:05:32I want you taking notes in the 2 p.m. concept meeting.
00:05:36Nothing, sir. I, I, yes, of course.
00:05:53Design department, Holly Andrews.
00:05:56Mrs. Andrews, Mr. Gardner would like to see you in his office. Now.
00:06:02I'm in the middle of preparing for the-
00:06:04Now, Mrs. Andrews.
00:06:19Of course. But get this. Ezra Gardner was seen driving a woman out of the garage Saturday morning in the
00:06:24Maybach.
00:06:25Who was she?
00:06:26No idea. But the rumor is she was in Runway Chanel.
00:06:32Whoever she is, she won't last. Ezra Gardner doesn't do relationships.
00:06:52Is the air conditioning and design malfunctioning?
00:06:55Uh, no, Mr. Gardner. It's quite comfortable.
00:06:58It must be freezing to warrant such heavy wool.
00:07:02I, I run cold.
00:07:04Really? That wasn't my impression.
00:07:08Stay.
00:07:15Your tag is sticking out.
00:07:18Hide it well, Hallie.
00:07:20I don't like sharing what's mine.
00:07:24Into my office. Now.
00:07:43You wanted to see me, Mr. Gardner?
00:07:51It says Hallie Andrews declined your request.
00:07:54Is this how you treat your fiancé?
00:07:58I'm not your fiancé.
00:08:02We are negotiating.
00:08:04And declining a friend request is a poor opening move, Hallie.
00:08:19The prenuptial agreement. Draft one.
00:08:27You can't be serious.
00:08:29You can't be serious. The allowance? It's more than my annual salary.
00:08:32I am always serious about my investments.
00:08:35I am not an investment.
00:08:39I want my life back.
00:08:41I want to be invisible again.
00:08:43I notice assets others overlook, Hallie.
00:08:47For instance, your particular interest in Senator Grimes.
00:08:54How do you know about that?
00:08:56How do you know about that?
00:08:56I told you.
00:08:57I verify my investments.
00:09:02You're chasing a ghost.
00:09:04A junior assistant will never get close enough to ask him your questions.
00:09:08And you think you're chasing a ghost.
00:09:08And you think you can help?
00:09:10I don't think.
00:09:12I know.
00:09:14Being Mrs. Ezra Gardner puts you at his table.
00:09:18It forces him to acknowledge you.
00:09:21Why?
00:09:22Why are you doing this for me?
00:09:25Because I always acquire what catches my eye.
00:09:31I need time.
00:09:33Take it.
00:09:35But while you think, check your phone.
00:09:42Accept my friend request.
00:09:49Good.
00:09:49Now go back to work.
00:09:52What?
00:09:55And Hallie?
00:09:56Cancel your dinner plans.
00:09:58I have a date with Irvin.
00:10:02Not anymore.
00:10:04I have a date with Irvin.
00:10:11Whoa.
00:10:12You okay?
00:10:13You look...
00:10:14Green.
00:10:16Bad sushi.
00:10:17I just threw up everything.
00:10:19Are you sure it's not?
00:10:21Morning sickness.
00:10:24Definitely not.
00:10:25Just food poisoning.
00:10:32Hallie!
00:10:33Look!
00:10:33The all-company email!
00:10:37You're on the S-Country Fashion Week list.
00:10:39My name was at the bottom of the list.
00:10:41This was Ezra's doing.
00:10:42He was manipulating my entire career.
00:10:45I don't care if he's in a board meeting family.
00:10:48He can't just do this to me.
00:10:52He left this for you, Ms. Andrews.
00:10:54This is your chance to prove you are not just a pretty face.
00:10:58Don't waste it.
00:11:04Babe!
00:11:05Saw the list.
00:11:06We can turn this into a romantic vacation.
00:11:10A romantic vacation?
00:11:12Now you want to be seen with me?
00:11:15Feeling sick?
00:11:18Liar.
00:11:18Finley left something at the front desk for you.
00:11:21Mr. Butler said this was urgent.
00:11:23Inside the bag was a thermist of ginger soup.
00:11:26He knew.
00:11:27He knew.
00:11:27He knew I took the pill.
00:11:29He thinks he can control me with soup?
00:11:32Make me compliant?
00:11:38I drank just enough to settle my stomach.
00:11:40Then walked to the nearest trash can.
00:11:43Did you clear the security logs from the pharmacy?
00:11:45And the lobby footage.
00:11:47No record of her illness exists.
00:11:50Drive.
00:11:53To us, Hallie.
00:11:54And to your big break.
00:12:01You smell like Chanel No 5.
00:12:03That's Leah's signature scent.
00:12:05I must have walked through her perfume cloud at the office.
00:12:08Now about S country.
00:12:10I'm thinking of heading out a few days early.
00:12:13A few days early?
00:12:14Sounds busy.
00:12:15Excuse me for a moment.
00:12:29I hope Leah is okay.
00:12:31She just told me she's terribly sick.
00:12:35Oh?
00:12:36That's too bad.
00:12:45Actually, babe, I totally forgot.
00:12:48I have a conference call with the Tokyo team in 30 minutes.
00:12:51I have to cut this short.
00:12:52Of course.
00:12:53Work first.
00:12:56Just wait a second.
00:13:07Leah.
00:13:10Driver.
00:13:11Take me home.
00:13:16Take me home.
00:13:43Going up?
00:13:44Are you following me?
00:13:46It's my building, Hallie.
00:13:48I'm everywhere.
00:13:54My phone.
00:13:55Where is it?
00:13:56No, no, no.
00:13:58It's shattered.
00:13:59The evidence.
00:14:00I had everything.
00:14:01Forget the phone.
00:14:02Are you injured?
00:14:04I'm fine.
00:14:05But I lost the proof.
00:14:08We're stuck.
00:14:09The emergency button is dead.
00:14:14Are you okay?
00:14:15Your knuckles are white.
00:14:17I'm fine.
00:14:19You're claustrophobic.
00:14:21Don't be ridiculous.
00:14:23You are.
00:14:24You're sweating.
00:14:26Talk to me.
00:14:27Just talk.
00:14:29About anything.
00:14:44I've got you.
00:14:45I'm fine.
00:14:46Get off me.
00:14:48You can't even stand.
00:14:50Lean on me.
00:14:51We have to take the stairs.
00:14:53Your leg.
00:14:55What happened?
00:14:56Old injury.
00:14:57A lifetime ago.
00:14:58Ezra, what happened?
00:15:01Get Ms. Andrews a new phone.
00:15:03The latest model.
00:15:04Yes, sir.
00:15:04Restore her cloud data immediately.
00:15:07I don't need...
00:15:09It's a worker's compass, you.
00:15:11Do it.
00:15:31You're still here?
00:15:33Finley is still working, and he said the storm was bad.
00:15:38No Ubers.
00:15:39I'll drive you.
00:15:42You shouldn't be driving.
00:15:44Your leg.
00:15:47I have a driver, Hallie.
00:16:06You were sleeping.
00:16:07We've been parked for 20 minutes.
00:16:09Where are we?
00:16:11Why did we stop?
00:16:13For the sugar cache.
00:16:16You didn't have to do this.
00:16:18I told you, Hallie.
00:16:20I take care of my investments.
00:16:32The contract.
00:16:33Send me the final version.
00:16:36Are you sure?
00:16:37I want access to Grimes.
00:16:40That's my condition.
00:16:47You'll have it.
00:16:49And I want to design.
00:16:51For real.
00:16:53Not just fetch coffee.
00:16:56You were never meant to fetch coffee, Hallie.
00:16:58I've seen your sketches.
00:17:02You have potential.
00:17:04You've seen my sketches?
00:17:06I'll see you tomorrow, fiancé.
00:17:21It came from the top floor.
00:17:23What is it?
00:17:25It's the first move in my war.
00:17:32Adequate.
00:17:34High praise from you.
00:17:36High praise from you.
00:17:36When you see him, don't look at him like a daughter.
00:17:38Look at him like an equal.
00:17:43I don't know if I can.
00:17:45I don't know if I can.
00:17:46You can.
00:17:47You have me.
00:17:55Showtime, Mrs. Gardner.
00:17:56Ezra.
00:17:57Good to see you.
00:17:58And who is this lovely accessory?
00:18:01Senator.
00:18:01I'd like you to meet my fiancé.
00:18:03Fiancé?
00:18:04You?
00:18:05Yes.
00:18:06This is Hallie.
00:18:08Hallie Andrews.
00:18:09A pleasure to meet you, Senator.
00:18:13The pleasure is mine.
00:18:16He didn't even recognize me.
00:18:19He's intrigued.
00:18:20That's the first step.
00:18:23Now, we burn his world down.
00:18:26But first, we dance.
00:18:33Who are you, Ezra Gardner?
00:18:36The man who saw your value when everyone else was blind.
00:18:41Kiss me.
00:18:43With pleasure.
00:19:07Andrews, explain this.
00:19:09These are Wendy's sketches.
00:19:11Why are you showing them to me?
00:19:13Don't play dumb.
00:19:14I've been looking for those since yesterday.
00:19:17Security found them in your personal drawer.
00:19:21She was playing a trick.
00:19:23And why would I steal this?
00:19:24It's derivative.
00:19:26It's mediocre.
00:19:27Excuse me?
00:19:27You little thief.
00:19:28You're just a glorified coffee girl.
00:19:30You only got here by men.
00:19:32Enough.
00:19:32Hallie, the sketches were in your desk.
00:19:34That's possession of proprietary IP.
00:19:36We have zero tolerance.
00:19:37Check the cameras.
00:19:38There's a camera right above my desk.
00:19:40Oh.
00:19:41Didn't you hear?
00:19:42The cameras on this floor were down yesterday.
00:19:45How convenient.
00:19:46Ms. Andrews, hand over your badge.
00:19:49We need to escort you for an investigative interview.
00:19:52I didn't do it.
00:19:55Hallie.
00:19:56This way.
00:19:57Don't touch me.
00:20:01That's what happens when you fly too close to the sun.
00:20:04Sign this.
00:20:05It's standard protocol.
00:20:10Don't sign anything.
00:20:12Mr. Butler.
00:20:13This is an HR matter.
00:20:15Mr. Gardner is on his way down.
00:20:18And he is not pleased.
00:20:31Mr. Gardner, we found stolen sketches in Mrs. Andrews' desk.
00:20:36Proprietary designs belong to Ms. Quinn.
00:20:39Evidence.
00:20:42These were the files, sir.
00:20:50You're telling me my special assistant with access to this conglomerate's confidential financials
00:20:55risked her career to steal this?
00:20:58This pedestrian, uninspired garbage?
00:21:01Sir, it's the fall lead piece.
00:21:03It's a poor knockoff of a Balenciade coat from five years ago.
00:21:07Where is the security footage?
00:21:08The cameras were down, sir.
00:21:10For maintenance.
00:21:11Maintenance.
00:21:12I pay $40 million a year for a system that rivals the Pentagon.
00:21:16And it just happened to go down?
00:21:17Finley.
00:21:18Get IT security.
00:21:19I want a forensic audit of the server logs.
00:21:21Pull the physical backup tape from the basement.
00:21:24If I find out this was a setup, termination will be the least of your worries.
00:21:28I will sue you for corporate sabotage until your great-crazed grandchildren are paying the
00:21:31legal fees.
00:21:35Tear that up.
00:21:40Ms. Andrews returns to her desk.
00:21:43If anyone has a problem with that, they can see me.
00:21:46Personally.
00:21:48Allie.
00:21:50Yes?
00:21:51My office.
00:21:52Tomorrow morning.
00:21:538 a.m.
00:21:54Don't be late.
00:22:05Bring an appetite.
00:22:07I'm not eating alone.
00:22:22Sit.
00:22:23Eat.
00:22:26You look like you haven't eaten since the gala.
00:22:33It's for energy.
00:22:35It's for energy.
00:22:35For catching rats.
00:22:37He thinks...
00:22:39Your assistant...
00:22:40He definitely thinks we're sleeping together.
00:22:43He knows we are engaged.
00:22:45It's functionally the same thing in his mind.
00:22:47It's not.
00:22:48This is a business arrangement.
00:22:55Who paid for this breakfast?
00:22:57The company account.
00:22:58Why?
00:22:59I want to pay for my share.
00:23:01I am not a kept woman.
00:23:04I have a salary.
00:23:08Allie.
00:23:08The orange juice costs more than your hourly rate.
00:23:11I don't care.
00:23:12How much?
00:23:14If it makes your fragile ego feel better, $200.
00:23:20For eggs?
00:23:21Are the kick-ins made of gold?
00:23:23It's from Le Couchet.
00:23:25Just eat the eggs, Allie.
00:23:37That covers the eggs and the coffee.
00:23:38I'm not paying for the truffle fries because I didn't ask for them.
00:23:41You are ridiculous.
00:23:43I am independent.
00:23:47I have a rat to catch.
00:23:56Did you see?
00:23:57She just threw money at him.
00:23:59A 20?
00:24:00Is she tipping him?
00:24:02Or paying for...
00:24:04services?
00:24:07Okay.
00:24:08Spill.
00:24:09Did you pay Ezza $20 to kiss you?
00:24:12Or did he pay you to leave?
00:24:14It was for breakfast.
00:24:16We went Dutch.
00:24:19You went Dutch with a billionaire?
00:24:22Holly, you are doing this so wrong.
00:24:39I told you the cameras were wiped.
00:24:41But the big boss is pulling the physical tapes.
00:24:43If they find out, I cut the feed.
00:24:45They won't.
00:24:46Just tell them it was a glitch.

00:45:04Stomach.
00:45:06Knives.
00:45:09My car is out front to Mount Sinai.
00:45:12Go!
00:45:14Clear the room.
00:45:15I'll take this.
00:45:16I'm Dr. Gardner Solon, Ezra's aunt.
00:45:19And you must be the girl who made him run a red line.
00:45:22It's acute gastritis.
00:45:24Stress-induced, we're going to stop the pain.
00:45:31You're awake.
00:45:33Did I die?
00:45:34No.
00:45:36But you tried your best to give me a heart attack.
00:45:39I'm sorry.
00:45:40I didn't mean to call you.
00:45:45It was an accident.
00:45:47Who else would you call?
00:45:52911?
00:45:54I'm faster than 911.
00:45:57She's stable.
00:45:58You're staying overnight.
00:46:02I can't afford a private room.
00:46:05It's covered.
00:46:08Employee benefits.
00:46:10Go to sleep, Hallie.
00:46:15I'm not leaving.
00:46:19Exa, you didn't have to come.
00:46:22Yes.
00:46:23I did.
00:46:27Why do I get poached salmon while you're eating cardboard?
00:46:32You have a delicate stomach.
00:46:34I have one of steel.
00:46:37I'm Venmo-ing you for this.
00:46:47You want me to buy you dinner?
00:46:49You own the restaurant.
00:46:55I want a home-cooked meal.
00:46:57I can cook.
00:47:02Prove it.
00:47:05Where is the invalid?
00:47:08We had to see the woman who finally made Ezra Gardner leave aboard me.
00:47:14Get out.
00:47:16Hi.
00:47:18I'm Luke.
00:47:19Ezra talks about you.
00:47:21A lot.
00:47:22He talks about me?
00:47:25I mentioned my assistant.
00:47:27Once.
00:47:28Once?
00:47:29You almost bought out her coffee shop because they kept messing up her latte.
00:47:37You did what?
00:47:43Out!
00:47:44She needs to rest.
00:47:50Did you really threaten to buy my coffee shop?
00:47:55It was a strategic assessment of real estate value.
00:47:59You're a terrible liar, Axel.
00:48:01I'm a very good liar.
00:48:06But with you, it's becoming difficult.
00:48:10Why?
00:48:12Because you see too much.
00:48:23Vitals check.
00:48:31What the?
00:48:33It's just...
00:48:34gone.
00:48:35Don't go in.
00:48:36The place smells like a sewer.
00:48:40Irvin did this.
00:48:42No.
00:48:44The landlord.
00:48:45See the paper stapled to the wall?
00:48:47Eviction notice.
00:48:48He never told me.
00:48:48He just took the door?
00:48:50But my boxes.
00:48:52My clothes.
00:48:52Leave them.
00:48:53Everything in there is contaminated.
00:48:54It's not safe.
00:48:55I can't just leave.
00:48:57Everything I own.
00:48:58Hallie, look at me.
00:49:00It's stuff.
00:49:02We can replace stuff.
00:49:04I can't replace you if some junkie attacks you in there.
00:49:07Where do I go?
00:49:08I have nowhere.
00:49:10You come with me.
00:49:12The penthouse.
00:49:14No.
00:49:14I can't live with you.
00:49:16It crosses a line.
00:49:18The line was crossed when I carried you out of a hotel lobby bleeding.
00:49:22I need my own space.
00:49:23I need to pay for it myself.
00:49:25Fine.
00:49:26The Gartner Tower has corporate suites.
00:49:2940th floor.
00:49:29Secure.
00:49:30Private.
00:49:31How much?
00:49:33Employee rate.
00:49:34$50 a night.
00:49:38$50?
00:49:39For a Manhattan suite?
00:49:41You're lying.
00:49:42Do you want the room?
00:49:43Or the street?
00:49:49It has a door.
00:49:59What are you doing?
00:50:00Checking for bugs.
00:50:02Cameras.

00:50:31You wanted him so badly, Leah.
00:50:33You stole him.
00:50:35You lied for him.
00:50:38So thank you for taking out my trash.
00:50:43She's so pathetic.
00:50:44I just need her to sketch the concepts.
00:50:46Once I have the files, she's history.
00:50:49She actually thinks you love her.
00:50:51God, remember that scarf?
00:50:52Love?
00:50:53Please.
00:50:54I'm doing this for your uncle's trust fund.
