00:00:01So this is New York, the Big Apple.
00:00:04These buildings are so tall they could poke a hole in the sky.
00:00:08Come on, Daisy.
00:00:09Make it work in New York, make the money, and Dad gets his kidney surgery.
00:00:22Sir, can you hear me?
00:00:24Hey kid, don't touch him.
00:00:26In New York, being a good Samaritan can bankrupt you.
00:00:29Yeah, if he dies in your arms, you're getting sued for life.
00:00:32He can barely breathe, and you're just gonna stand there and watch?
00:00:42Hang in there, sir. Deep breaths. Come on, stay with me.
00:00:51Kid, was... was it you who saved me?
00:00:54Thank God, you're awake. Are you feeling better now?
00:01:01Kid, do you have a boyfriend?
00:01:03Uh, sir, I literally just got to New York. Dating isn't exactly on my to-do list yet.
00:01:08Good. I have a grandson, Julian. Cold as ice. Works too much.
00:01:12He needs someone like you to bring some sunshine into his life.
00:01:23Let go of him.
00:01:24Write her a check. Make her leave. I've seen this kind of street scam before.
00:01:29Excuse me? You think having money gives you the right to insult people?
00:01:33That's enough, Julian. She saved my life.
00:01:37Julian, this is the girl I choose for you. Now take her to the marriage bureau and get married. Today.
00:01:47Grandpa, this whole payback act ends now.
00:01:50Marcus has the check ready. Take the money and send her on her way.
00:01:55Send her away? Julian, you think my life is worth a check?
00:02:00Then what exactly do you want? You seriously expect me to marry some random homeless girl?
00:02:05She is not homeless. She saved my life. Show some respect.
00:02:12Listen carefully. You're pushing our global towards an IPO, but you only control 35% of the voting shares.
00:02:22Without 15%, the board will throw you out before the IPO even happens. Marry her.
00:02:28What?
00:02:29Keep it private for one year. A real legal marriage. 12 months.
00:02:33After the IPO, my 15% goes to you. Otherwise, you can start packing up your CEO office.
00:02:38You can't be serious.
00:02:42Mom, it's me. I made it to New York.
00:02:45Daisy, they found a kidney donor for your father, but the surgery and recovery will cost at least $100,000.
00:02:51If we can't pay by next week, they'll give the donor to someone else.
00:02:55Mom, don't panic. I'll figure something out. I promise.
00:03:05Sir, I accept your proposal.
00:03:07That was quick. So what's the price?
00:03:11I need $100,000. Turn, I'll cooperate and fulfill the one year marriage.
00:03:15100 grand. Not bad. Saving a life really pays well, huh?
00:03:18Done. I'll transfer the money immediately as part of the marriage contract.
00:03:23Then we make this clear right now. Rule number one, this marriage stays private. No one finds out who you
00:03:27are.
00:03:27Two, you stay out of my personal life. Three, one year from now, you take the money and disappear.
00:03:32Deal.
00:03:35Are you both entering this marriage voluntarily?
00:03:39Yes.
00:03:41Yes.
00:03:46The contract is now in effect. Marcus will wire the money to you.
00:03:51Thank you. I'll report to work as soon as possible. Today's my first day. I can't be late.
00:03:56Work? Where do you work?
00:03:58Sterling Global. My childhood friend Caleb helped me get the job. It's just an entry-level janitor position, but I'll
00:04:03do my best.
00:04:06Get in. I'll drop you off on the way.
00:04:08Wow. This car rides really smooth. Must cost at least $50,000, right?
00:04:15Something like that.
00:04:16Ma'am, this custom colonon costs over half a million just in upgrades, and you think it's 50 grand?
00:04:21I am.
00:04:28Hi, I'm Daisy Miller. I'm the new janitor starting today.
00:04:32Ugh. What's that smell? Let me guess. Kentucky? This is a global financial headquarters, not some farm.
00:04:39A job is a job. I'm here to work, not to impress anyone's nose.
00:04:43Got some attitude, huh?
00:04:46Good morning, Miss People Like This now. Where hire ya?
00:04:48Julian hates unprofessional staff.
00:04:50Brendan, keep an eye on her. Don't let her dirty the lobby floors.
00:04:53Julian?
00:04:53You think you can just say Mr. Sterling's name like that?
00:04:56He's the king of this building, and you are just dust on the floor.
00:05:00Julian. Same name as my husband? No way. Could he actually be?
00:05:13Wow, Daisy. Seriously? This is how you clean? Water all over the floor? What if a VIP slips?
00:05:19You planning to pay the lawsuit out of your janitor salary?
00:05:21I'll dry it right now.
00:05:24Oh my god, my shoes! Do you have any idea what these cost?
00:05:28I'm so sorry, Miss Victoria. I didn't mean to-
00:05:32Unbelievable. It's clear some people haven't learned proper manners.
00:05:37You can't even walk without making a mess. Those dirty hands of yours touched my shoes.
00:05:42You couldn't afford them in ten lifetimes.
00:05:45I said I was sorry. You can't just hit people.
00:05:49Can't? Honey, you ruined Miss Victoria's shoes.
00:05:52The fact that you still have a job right now is already a miracle. Get on your knees and wipe
00:05:55them clean.
00:05:56No. No? Brenda? Maybe she doesn't understand how things work here.
00:06:02Show her.
00:06:07Good morning, Mr. Sterling.
00:06:19Daisy?
00:06:21Julian.
00:06:25Who hit her?
00:06:29Julian, you actually know this... janitor?
00:06:35Sterling Global doesn't tolerate trash that bullies its own staff.
00:06:40Marcus.
00:06:41Remove this receptionate from Manhattan.
00:06:44Effective immediately.
00:06:45And make sure she never works in finance again.
00:06:48Mr. Sterling, please! I'm begging you!
00:06:52I didn't know she was connected to you!
00:06:56Get her out of my sight.
00:07:00Come with me.
00:07:10I kept my identity hidden for a reason.
00:07:14I wanted to see what kind of person you really were.
00:07:17Most people would have jumped at the chance to call themselves Mrs. Sterling.
00:07:21Used the name, pulled favors, climbed their way up.
00:07:27But you actually showed up here to mop floors.
00:07:30Mr. Sterling, do rich people really think poor people are born greedy?
00:07:34Like we're all just waiting for a shortcut?
00:07:37That's enough.
00:07:38You are legally Mrs. Sterling.
00:07:40I'm not letting my wife walk around in a janitor uniform.
00:07:43Assistant marketing manager.
00:07:44Starting tomorrow.
00:07:46No.
00:07:47No?
00:07:48I came to New York to earn money and save my dad.
00:07:51With my own hands.
00:07:53Not by marrying into money.
00:07:55Not by taking a shortcut someone handed to me.
00:07:59Maybe you think janitors are embarrassing.
00:08:00I don't.
00:08:01I work hard, I earn honestly, and I sleep just fine at night.
00:08:05If this marriage is supposed to stay secret, then let it stay secret.
00:08:09Completely.
00:08:10You'd rather scrub floors than sit in a manager's office?
00:08:13Yes.
00:08:16Mr. Sterling.
00:08:17For this one year, I'm your temporary wife.
00:08:20You don't need to control my life and no one else can shape who I'll become but myself.
00:08:23là.
00:08:36Daisy, come here.
00:08:44What are you doing?
00:08:46Nothing.
00:08:47Just curious.
00:09:00I'm sorry, I need to get back to work.
00:09:12That's the girl.
00:09:12The one who crossed Victoria and somehow kept her job.
00:09:15Yeah, and I heard she was in the CEO's office earlier.
00:09:17Come on, nobody gets that kind of access for free.
00:09:19Small town girl from Kentucky?
00:09:21She's definitely playing some kind of game.
00:09:23Hey, don't listen to them.
00:09:25But you really should be careful around Victoria.
00:09:28Why?
00:09:28She's from the Vance family.
00:09:30Old money, big influence.
00:09:32And she and Mr. Sterling grew up together.
00:09:35Basically childhood sweethearts.
00:09:42Julian, hold on.
00:09:43Your tie's crooked.
00:09:46Let me fix it.
00:09:50See what I mean?
00:09:51The whole company already treats her like the future Mrs. Sterling.
00:09:54Three years ago, Julian was in a terrible car accident.
00:09:57A mysterious girl saved him.
00:09:59Most people believe that girl was Victoria.
00:10:03So, there's already someone in his heart.
00:10:10Chloe, about what you said earlier, the woman who saved his life.
00:10:15Was that really Victoria?
00:10:16Honestly?
00:10:17No idea.
00:10:18But for the past three years, Victoria's been acting like she's the one.
00:10:21And Julian never corrected.
00:10:23If anything, he lets her.
00:10:26Daisy, just hear me out.
00:10:29Don't fall for the CEO.
00:10:31Guys like him don't fall in love easily.
00:10:34And if they do, it's usually with the woman who saved their life.
00:10:38So this marriage was never real to him.
00:10:41Just something he did to keep his grandfather happy.
00:10:45And me, I'm just a placeholder.
00:10:49Sir, regarding your marriage, should we file it with the board?
00:10:53No.
00:10:55Keep it confidential.
00:10:56During the agreement period, I don't want anyone disturbing her life.
00:11:01Julian!
00:11:02What the hell did I just see in HR?
00:11:04You got married?
00:11:05Who is she?
00:11:06Victoria.
00:11:07Victoria, you don't walk into my office without knocking.
00:11:11I came to this company because of you.
00:11:14I stayed here for three years because of you.
00:11:16And now you just marry some random woman?
00:11:19Just like that?
00:11:20Who is she?
00:11:21It's not your concern.
00:11:22Leave.
00:11:24Julian!
00:11:25Now.
00:11:27I hear Julian is married.
00:11:29Arthur always did have a sharp eye for people.
00:11:31Any girl he approves of must be special.
00:11:35My lady, we've learned that the new Mrs. Sterling works at Sterling Global.
00:11:38Her identity is being kept strictly confidential.
00:11:42Is that so?
00:11:43Then I suppose it's time for the godmother to pay a visit.
00:11:45Prepare something simple for me to wear.
00:11:48Nothing expensive.
00:11:49I'll go to Sterling Global myself.
00:11:52Quietly.
00:11:53I want to see for myself whether my godson's wife is worthy of the Sterling name.
00:12:06Oh, god.
00:12:12Hey, no, no, no.
00:12:13You can't sit there.
00:12:14That seating is for VIP clients.
00:12:16Not for people wandering in off the street.
00:12:19I twisted my ankle.
00:12:20I just need a minute to sit.
00:12:22Then sit outside.
00:12:23There's a sidewalk for that.
00:12:25Don't mess up our lobby.
00:12:26Get up.
00:12:30Tiffany, what's the problem?
00:12:32Why is she still here?
00:12:33Mrs. Victoria, she won't leave.
00:12:35Says she hurt her ankle.
00:12:38Hurt her ankle?
00:12:39Or looking for a payout?
00:12:42Ma'am, Sterling Global has a top-tier legal department.
00:12:45If you're planning to fake an injury and sue us, you picked the wrong place.
00:12:51Is this how young socialists behave now?
00:12:55No courtesy.
00:12:56No grace.
00:12:58How unfortunate.
00:13:01Excuse me?
00:13:02You crazy old woman!
00:13:04Look at you!
00:13:05And you think you get to judge me?
00:13:09Tiffany, call security.
00:13:12Get her out of here.
00:13:13Stop.
00:13:14She's injured.
00:13:15You can't just throw her out.
00:13:16Of course.
00:13:17Daisy again.
00:13:19Don't you have floors to clean?
00:13:20Or is interfering in company business part of your job now?
00:13:25It's okay, ma'am.
00:13:26I've got something that can help.
00:13:28I brought this from Tucky.
00:13:30It's really good for springs and swelling.
00:13:32Thank you, dear.
00:13:34Kindness like this is hard to find in New York.
00:13:38Wow.
00:13:38The country girl and the old beggar.
00:13:41What a perfect match.
00:13:45Security.
00:13:46Get these two out of here.
00:13:49Miss Victoria, you can't fire me just because I helped someone.
00:13:52Can't?
00:13:53Let me explain something to you.
00:13:54At Sterling Global, what I say goes.
00:13:56If I want you out, you're out.
00:13:58Don't be afraid, dear.
00:14:00Anyone who touches you today will answer to Julian personally.
00:14:02I promise you that.
00:14:07Julian, thank God you're here.
00:14:08This janitor brought in some unstable old girl and caused a huge disturbance.
00:14:13She even talked back to management.
00:14:15I was just about to have them removed.
00:14:17Godmother?
00:14:18Why are you dressed like this?
00:14:20Julian, your company is quite something.
00:14:24This manager just called me a lunatic from the slums and tried to have me thrown out.
00:14:36Victoria, what exactly did you say to her?
00:14:41I didn't know it was Lady Montgomery.
00:14:43I thought she was just some random person.
00:14:45I mean, I didn't...
00:14:46Julian, this is Daisy.
00:14:48She's the one who helped me.
00:14:49From today on, no one at Sterling Global lays a hand on Daisy.
00:14:54Julian, are we clear?
00:14:57Crystal clear.
00:15:06Julian!
00:15:07Are you seriously humiliating me over a janitor over her?
00:15:10She smells like cheap medicine and cleaning supplies and you're throwing me under the bus for this girl?
00:15:14What the hell did she do to you?
00:15:16What did she say to you that made you forget 20 years of history between us?
00:15:19Humiliate you?
00:15:21No, Victoria.
00:15:22You did that to yourself.
00:15:25You were reckless, rude, and completely out of line.
00:15:28The way you spoke to Lady Montgomery was unacceptable.
00:15:31Do you even understand who she is?
00:15:32The Montgomery family controls half the major charity foundations in New York.
00:15:36They have direct access to political and financial networks most companies spend decades trying to reach.
00:15:40I thought she was just some lost old woman.
00:15:42She looked like she didn't belong here.
00:15:43And that gave you the right to humiliate her?
00:15:46To treat her like she was beneath you?
00:15:47To insult her and my company?
00:15:49If Daisy hadn't stepped in, Lady Montgomery wouldn't be sitting here drinking tea.
00:15:53She would have walked out that door.
00:15:55And Sterling Global would have lost her support permanently.
00:15:57You almost destroyed three years of work in ten minutes.
00:16:00Then why are you protecting her?
00:16:01Why her?
00:16:02We grew up together, Julian.
00:16:03I've been standing next to you for years.
00:16:05Julian, tell me the truth.
00:16:07Have you ever loved me?
00:16:09I told you before, we are friends.
00:16:12Nothing more.
00:16:13Friends?
00:16:14You call this friendship?
00:16:15You'd rather defend a janitor than stand by me?
00:16:18You'd rather pick her than me?
00:16:25Mr. Sterling, please.
00:16:27Stay.
00:16:28You want to know who she is?
00:16:29Fine.
00:16:30I'll tell you.
00:16:31Sir, this isn't necessary.
00:16:33Listen carefully, Victoria.
00:16:35I have no interest in political marriages.
00:16:38I don't need alliances, and I don't need family arrangements.
00:16:43Because I already made my choice.
00:16:49Daisy is not just a janitor.
00:16:52She is...
00:16:56Mr. Sterling, please.
00:16:58Don't say things like that.
00:16:59Manager Victoria, he's just thanking me for helping Lady Montgomery earlier.
00:17:03He didn't mean it.
00:17:06Thanking you?
00:17:07Julian, that's not even funny.
00:17:09Victoria, you should be working on the IPO briefing.
00:17:13Go.
00:17:24Take it.
00:17:25A thank you gift for what you did today.
00:17:28I really can't accept this.
00:17:30It's way too expensive.
00:17:31And janitors aren't allowed to wear jewelry at work.
00:17:34Who said you had to wear it on your hand?
00:17:46Keep it out of sight.
00:17:49It's really pretty.
00:17:57My godmother knows who you are now.
00:18:00She likes you.
00:18:01A lot.
00:18:02You helped me today.
00:18:04This is the least I could do.
00:18:05Julian, I left my phone.
00:18:07What was that?
00:18:09What were you two doing?
00:18:10Victoria.
00:18:11Knock before you enter my office.
00:18:14Daisy, get back to work.
00:18:15Yes, sir.
00:18:22Well, damn.
00:18:23If it isn't Tucky's very own violin princess, Daisy Miller.
00:18:27Never thought I'd find you here.
00:18:29So what happened?
00:18:30Manhattan chew you up already?
00:18:32Now you're scrubbing floors just to survive?
00:18:34I heard you're working for Lady Montgomery now.
00:18:36You finally got yourself a nice uniform.
00:18:38It's not a uniform.
00:18:39I'm her private security consultant.
00:18:41Big difference.
00:18:41My salary alone could buy your family farm three times over.
00:18:44New York's for people like me, Daisy.
00:18:45Not for some farm girl who still smells like hay.
00:18:48She used to be quite a big deal.
00:18:50A rising star in the national youth music competition.
00:18:52Her future was bright.
00:18:53But then, she tried to win by using improper means to get close to a judge.
00:18:57Got exposed on the spot.
00:18:58Disqualified.
00:18:59Thrown out immediately.
00:19:00After that, her entire hometown was ashamed of-
00:19:02Jackson, you really want to bring that up?
00:19:04Because if we're telling the story, let's tell the whole thing.
00:19:07You bribed the judges.
00:19:08You framed me.
00:19:09And you took my spot.
00:19:10I work for a living.
00:19:11I take care of my father.
00:19:12I earn every dollar I make.
00:19:14I don't lie.
00:19:15I don't cheat.
00:19:15And I don't tear down people from my own hometown just to feel superior.
00:19:19You little janitor.
00:19:20Who the hell do you think you are?
00:19:26Let go.
00:19:27You're hurting me.
00:19:45Damn, a pink diamond this clean?
00:19:47You're a janitor, Daisy.
00:19:48Where the hell did you get something like this?
00:19:49Oh my god.
00:19:50That's Aurora's tear.
00:19:51Mr. Sterling had Marcus Hustam order it from Harry Quiston last week.
00:19:53It's worth over a million dollars.
00:19:54Over a million?
00:19:55No way.
00:19:55She had that on her?
00:19:56That has to be still explanation.
00:19:57Give it back!
00:19:58That ring is mine!
00:19:58Mr. Sterling gave it to me!
00:20:00Mr. Sterling gave it to you?
00:20:01Daisy, this is getting embarrassing.
00:20:03First you steal something worth a million dollars.
00:20:05Now you're making up stories too?
00:20:06That ring was clearly meant for the future Mrs. Sterling.
00:20:08And somehow you think that's you?
00:20:10That's actually funny.
00:20:11People like her always think one expensive thing will change whole life.
00:20:13Steal a diamond, become a princess.
00:20:14Classic delusion.
00:20:14Back off.
00:20:15Stolen property doesn't belong to you.
00:20:16Don't touch it.
00:20:17Hands like yours will ruin it.
00:20:19You even know what this is worth?
00:20:20One scratch and you'd owe more than your whole life can pay back.
00:20:23What is wrong with you?
00:20:25Get your foot off her!
00:20:26You're gonna crush her hand!
00:20:27Good.
00:20:27That's exactly how you deal with thieves and corporate spies.
00:20:31Security, take her and the stolen ring to the office.
00:20:33I want him to see what kind of trash he's protecting.
00:20:43Julian, you need to hear this.
00:20:45Take a look at your employee.
00:20:47She stole the ring you had custom made.
00:20:50Aurora's tear.
00:20:51Jackson caught her in the act.
00:20:55Who did that to her?
00:20:56Mr. Sterling, I handled it.
00:20:58She tried to get rid of the evidence, so I had to step in.
00:21:01Used a little force, nothing serious.
00:21:05Handled it?
00:21:05Who told you you could lay a hand on my employee?
00:21:12Julian, you're defending the wrong person.
00:21:15She stole from you.
00:21:16Let me make this very clear.
00:21:18I gave that ring to Daisy, personally.
00:21:22Jackson falsely accused a company employee,
00:21:24assaulted her, and damaged private property.
00:21:27Take him to the police.
00:21:28Legal will press charges.
00:21:30I don't want him anywhere near this company again.
00:21:32Get him out.
00:21:37Here, let me help you.
00:21:40If I gave it to you, you should have kept it on.
00:21:42Look at this.
00:21:44You almost wrecked your hand over a ring.
00:21:47You really don't know how to take care of yourself, do you?
00:21:49I didn't want to cause trouble for you.
00:21:52Now it's ruined.
00:21:53It's just a ring.
00:21:54It can be remade.
00:21:56Your hand can't.
00:21:58Hold still.
00:22:04Mr. Sterling.
00:22:05We found her.
00:22:07The woman who saved you in that Kentucky car accident three years ago.
00:22:12Go to the medical room.
00:22:13Get your hand treated properly.
00:22:15Then come back and wait for me.
00:22:18Start talking.
00:22:20All right.
00:22:22Talk.
00:22:22What'd you find?
00:22:25Mr. Sterling.
00:22:26We located the medical records from the Kentucky accident three years ago.
00:22:29It was a private rural clinic, so the files were buried in the county hospital archives.
00:22:33The doctor confirmed everything.
00:22:35A local girl happened to pass by and used a family-taughted emergency method to keep you alive.
00:22:39She stopped the bleeding and stayed with you until the ambulance showed up.
00:22:42The girl's name was...
00:22:43Daisy Miller.
00:22:52Hey, hey, stay with me.
00:22:54Come on.
00:22:55Don't do this.
00:22:56Please, wake up.
00:22:58Please.
00:22:59So it really was her.
00:23:01The woman I've been looking for all these years was right there the whole time.
00:23:07Daisy, you have no idea what just happened.
00:23:10The whole company's talking about you right now.
00:23:12The CEO fired that snobby Jackson because of you, and he straight up told everyone the ring was his gift
00:23:17to you.
00:23:19Chloe, he was just just protecting the company's image.
00:23:24There's someone he's been looking for, for three years.
00:23:28Someone who actually matters to him.
00:23:31I'm just the contract wife who happened to be here.
00:23:34Marcus.
00:23:35Yes, sir.
00:23:37Tomorrow's Daisy's birthday, right?
00:23:39Yes, sir.
00:23:40Good.
00:23:40I want tomorrow night's banquet ready, and I want a birthday gift prepared for Daisy.
00:23:43Something unforgeable.
00:23:45Something the whole city will remember.
00:23:46Daisy.
00:23:47Daisy, this time, I've got you.
00:23:52Happy birthday, Daisy.
00:23:55Wait.
00:23:55You knew it was my birthday?
00:23:59Open it.
00:24:00Go on.
00:24:07Oh, my God.
00:24:09Is this an 18th century fiddle?
00:24:12It's incredible.
00:24:14It's really beautiful.
00:24:16But I don't play anymore.
00:24:19Why?
00:24:25Years ago.
00:24:26Small town girl thinks she can win?
00:24:28You got caught flirting with a judge, didn't you?
00:24:30Pathetic.
00:24:30No, that's not true.
00:24:32I didn't do anything.
00:24:36After that, everyone one back home knew.
00:24:40I was the girl who cheated to win.
00:24:43Three conservatories pulled my admission.
00:24:45Just like that, everything was gone.
00:24:50Daisy.
00:24:51I don't buy it.
00:24:53Not for a second.
00:24:55My grandfather chose you.
00:24:57He knew people.
00:24:58He wouldn't have trusted the wrong person.
00:24:59And I trust what I see.
00:25:01You're not that kind of person.
00:25:04So, yeah.
00:25:05I believe you.
00:25:15Mr. Sterling, we've got a serious problem.
00:25:20This better be worth it.
00:25:22Miss Victoria used the company seal without approval.
00:25:25She signed a performance bet agreement with Thorne Properties for the Hudson River Core Land.
00:25:29The orchestra she hired just lost at Lincoln Center.
00:25:32Thorne is moving to seize the property.
00:25:35She did what?
00:25:36She gambled Sterling's most valuable land over performance bet.
00:25:41Get the car ready.
00:25:43Now.
00:25:44Let's see if Thorne really thinks they can take what's mine.
00:25:52Victoria.
00:25:53This is your light of Manhattan?
00:25:55I've heard better music on a farm.
00:25:58Thorne, it was just a bad performance.
00:26:01They were off today, that's all.
00:26:02Off today?
00:26:03No, this is just bad.
00:26:06Stop embarrassing Sterling Group.
00:26:08In front of real European masters, this so-called American music is nothing but cheap noise.
00:26:15No soul, no class.
00:26:19Let me introduce you.
00:26:21Alistair.
00:26:21One of the greatest musical prodigies in the world.
00:26:24One string on his violin is worth more than your entire orchestra.
00:26:30Competing with musicians at this level is honestly beneath me.
00:26:34It's not over yet.
00:26:35The wage isn't finished.
00:26:36I'm from the Vance family, a real music family.
00:26:38I'll perform myself.
00:26:39Are you serious right now?
00:26:41The score is 0-3.
00:26:42The match is already over.
00:26:43No, I'm Julian Sterling's fiancé.
00:26:45I represent Sterling Group.
00:26:46If I beat Alistair, the Hudson River Land stays with us.
00:26:50You want to challenge me, Miss Victoria?
00:26:52Your hands belong on a Chanel handbag, not a violin bow.
00:26:58You heard him.
00:26:59Stop humiliating yourself.
00:27:01The Hudson River property is mine now.
00:27:04Go tell Julian this.
00:27:06He didn't just lose a piece of land.
00:27:08He lost the Sterling family's pride in Manhattan.
00:27:11Manager, we lost.
00:27:12If Mr. Sterling finds out we're finished, he'll throw us out of New York.
00:27:16It's over.
00:27:17Julian is going to kill me.
00:27:27What was that?
00:27:28Did you see that?
00:27:29Did you see that?
00:27:35Julian, thank God you're here.
00:27:37Thorne's been completely unreasonable.
00:27:41Julian, the contract is clear.
00:27:44Your team already lost.
00:27:46Showing up now won't change anything.
00:27:48Thorne, apparently you struggle with reading as much as you do with taste.
00:27:53What's that supposed to mean?
00:27:54The wager agreement is very clear.
00:27:56The match only ends when one side has no one left who can compete.
00:28:01Your orchestra is already finished.
00:28:03Since this manager insists she comes from a prestigious musical family,
00:28:08and insists she can compete,
00:28:10then the match isn't over.
00:28:11Exactly!
00:28:13Thorne, do you even dare face me?
00:28:18Fine.
00:28:20Since Mr. Sterling is so eager to lose in person,
00:28:22I won't stop you.
00:28:24Victoria, go ahead.
00:28:27Watch closely, Daisy.
00:28:29This is what real high-class music looks like.
00:28:32Girls who spend their lives holding a mop
00:28:34don't belong on a stage like this.
00:28:36If I beat Alistin,
00:28:38I'll be the one who saves Sterling group.
00:28:41Julian will come back to me.
00:28:43He has to.
00:28:44Julian will come back to me.
00:28:59He has to.
00:29:03Now that's the Vance family standard.
00:29:05At this speed,
00:29:06Alistin won't even get a chance to keep up.
00:29:09She's in top form today.
00:29:11That kind of jumping bow technique is insanely clean.
00:29:15No.
00:29:16This isn't right.
00:29:17She's going to lose.
00:29:19Daisy, do you even know what Paganati is?
00:29:20Keep your mouth shut and stop jinxing her.
00:29:22This is hilarious.
00:29:24A janner judging a professional violinist?
00:29:26You probably can't even read sheet mazel.
00:29:28Why do you think she's going to lose?
00:29:30She's rushing.
00:29:31She's sped up to dominate the tempo,
00:29:32but now her breathing and finger control are out of sync.
00:29:35She's forcing the rhythm.
00:29:36She won't last much longer.
00:29:37That's all you've got?
00:29:38Then let's end this.
00:29:45Don't force it!
00:29:46Manager, push through!
00:29:48Finish it!
00:30:06Yeah, I figured.
00:30:12Bravo!
00:30:14Absolutely brilliant.
00:30:15Julian, that was easily
00:30:17the most expensive train wreck I've ever seen.
00:30:20Julian, I didn't mean for this to happen.
00:30:24The string snapped.
00:30:25I couldn't control it.
00:30:27Take a good look, everyone.
00:30:30This is Julian Sterling,
00:30:32New York's so-called undefeated legend,
00:30:35losing his own game in front of the entire city.
00:30:37Honestly, it's almost poetic.
00:30:40From today on, Julian,
00:30:42your Manhattan myth is officially over.
00:30:46Against real European masters,
00:30:48your American music sounds like background noise
00:30:50in a burger jump.
00:30:51Cheap,
00:30:52loud,
00:30:53disposable.
00:30:53Alistair, tell them what real music sounds like.
00:30:55With training like this,
00:30:56I'm not surprised Miss Victoria performed the way she did.
00:30:59All flash,
00:31:00no depth,
00:31:00no soul.
00:31:01Exactly.
00:31:02American music is a joke.
00:31:05You people belong playing country tunes on some dusty farm,
00:31:08not performing at Lincoln Center.
00:31:11This place isn't for amateurs with money,
00:31:13it's for people like me.
00:31:16Mr. Thorne,
00:31:17you really should stop talking.
00:31:24You've got to be kidding me.
00:31:26A Janner stepping up here?
00:31:28Daisy,
00:31:29have you lost your mind?
00:31:30Haven't we embarrassed ourselves enough already?
00:31:33Who do you think you are?
00:31:35Go back to cleaning bathrooms.
00:31:37This isn't your place.
00:31:40Mr. Sterling,
00:31:42Sterling Group's reputation shouldn't be dragged through the mud by people like him.
00:31:45And what American music is,
00:31:46isn't for him to decide.
00:31:47Daisy,
00:31:48what are you planning to do?
00:31:51Let me play.
00:32:01Miss Daisy,
00:32:03your violin.
00:32:07Julian!
00:32:08That soul of Amber,
00:32:09you actually gave it to this nobody?
00:32:11Seriously,
00:32:11manager,
00:32:12what a waste.
00:32:13You can dress something up all you want,
00:32:14it doesn't change what it is.
00:32:16Hold it tight,
00:32:16poor girl.
00:32:17Snap one string,
00:32:18and you'll spend your whole life paying it off.
00:32:20Julian,
00:32:21are you actually serious?
00:32:23You're betting Prime Manhattan land on a Janner's performance?
00:32:27Thorne,
00:32:27listen carefully.
00:32:28I'm listening.
00:32:30Final round.
00:32:31If Daisy loses,
00:32:32the land is yours.
00:32:33I'll sign the transfer on the spot.
00:32:35No backing out.
00:32:35Look at her.
00:32:36She's about to pass out from fear.
00:32:42Daisy,
00:32:43look at me.
00:32:44Don't be afraid.
00:32:45I trust you.
00:32:52Hey.
00:32:53What now?
00:32:53You here to beg?
00:32:54Let's change the rules.
00:32:55Both orchestras play.
00:32:56Together.
00:32:57If you want to embarrass yourself even more,
00:32:59be my guest.
00:33:05Guys,
00:33:06drop the sheet music.
00:33:08Wait,
00:33:08what?
00:33:09Follow my lead.
00:33:10Play your anger.
00:33:11Let it all out through the strings.
00:33:27What the hell is this?
00:33:31Is that real?
00:33:36Hey,
00:33:37move with it.
00:33:37Don't just stand there like statues.
00:33:52This is insane.
00:33:54That's not even real music.
00:33:56No.
00:33:57That's exactly what real music sounds like.
00:34:19I did it.
00:34:33Sir?
00:34:34Miss Daisy,
00:34:35I owe you an apology.
00:34:37I was wrong about you.
00:34:39Your music has life in it.
00:34:41Alistair!
00:34:42What the hell are you doing?
00:34:43You're just gonna hand her the win?
00:34:45Mr. Thorne,
00:34:47art isn't a business deal.
00:34:48There's no winning or losing.
00:34:49Only truth.
00:34:51And today,
00:34:52her music spoke louder than mine.
00:34:54I accept.
00:34:56Well, Thorne,
00:34:57looks like the deal stands.
00:34:59That land,
00:34:59you're not getting anywhere near it.
00:35:01Julian,
00:35:02you really think this is over?
00:35:03For today?
00:35:05Yeah, it is.
00:35:07We're leaving.
00:35:08No.
00:35:09This can't be real.
00:35:11How could someone like her be a genius?
00:35:17What was that?
00:35:18Did you see her?
00:35:19Did you see her?
00:35:22Ladies and gentlemen,
00:35:24this is Sterling Group's Pride.
00:35:31Thank you, Julian.
00:35:33No.
00:35:35You saved us today.
00:35:37You're the hero here.
00:35:44Victoria,
00:35:45you used the company seal without authorization
00:35:47and signed a private betting agreement.
00:35:49If Daisy hadn't stepped in,
00:35:51Sterling Group would have lost
00:35:53a billion dollars overnight.
00:35:54Julian,
00:35:55I was trying to help you take down Thorne.
00:35:58No.
00:35:59You were trying to help yourself.
00:36:02Effective immediately,
00:36:03you're terminated.
00:36:04Go to HR and pick up your severance package.
00:36:17I have an announcement.
00:36:18Victoria has been terminated
00:36:20for serious misconduct.
00:36:22The position of marketing director
00:36:23is now vacant.
00:36:25Mr. Sterling,
00:36:26I believe Miss Daisy proved her leadership
00:36:28and crisis management skills
00:36:29at Lincoln Center.
00:36:30She's the strongest candidate
00:36:31for this role.
00:36:32I second that.
00:36:33Daisy would be perfect for it.
00:36:34Me?
00:36:34No, I can't.
00:36:35I'm just a janitor.
00:36:37I wouldn't even know where to begin.
00:36:39$50,000 a month.
00:36:40Wait.
00:36:41Did you just say $50,000?
00:36:46Base salary.
00:36:47$50,000 a month?
00:36:49Dad's medical treater
00:36:50would finally be covered.
00:36:52Mr. Sterling?
00:36:54I can do this.
00:36:55I'm in.
00:37:02Daisy, look at this place.
00:37:04This is literally the fanciest hotel in New York.
00:37:06Don't you think this is a little over the top?
00:37:08I feel like everyone's staring at me.
00:37:10Of course they are.
00:37:11The CEO threw this whole celebration
00:37:12just for you.
00:37:13Half the company's dying of jealousy right now.
00:37:15Tonight, you're the queen of Manhattan.
00:37:19Daisy, congratulations.
00:37:20Youngest marketing manager
00:37:21in Sterling Group history.
00:37:23That's pretty damn impressive.
00:37:25Caleb, what are you doing here?
00:37:27I wanted to give you this.
00:37:28A little promotion gift.
00:37:29I know things are different now,
00:37:31but I just wanted to show you
00:37:32how proud I am of you.
00:37:35Caleb, they're beautiful,
00:37:36but I really can't accept
00:37:38something this expensive.
00:37:40So what?
00:37:41Now that you're a big shop manager,
00:37:43you can't take a gift from a security guy?
00:37:45Come on, you know that's not it at all.
00:37:48Thank you, Caleb.
00:37:49Honestly, if it weren't for you,
00:37:51I wouldn't even be standing here tonight.
00:37:53I'd still be back in Tucky,
00:37:54stressing over farm bills
00:37:55and wondering how to make ends meet.
00:37:56Of course, Daisy.
00:38:01Who is he?
00:38:02Head of security.
00:38:03Caleb, he's from the same hometown
00:38:05as Miss Daisy.
00:38:06Same hometown?
00:38:07They seem pretty close.
00:38:26Daisy, what's up with the boss tonight?
00:38:28He looks like he's in a terrible mood.
00:38:29Your guess is as good as mine.
00:38:30Guys like him are hard to read.
00:38:35I don't want to sleep.
00:38:37Where's the champagne?
00:38:40You again.
00:38:41Huh?
00:38:41Oh, it's you.
00:38:44Mr. Ice Cold CEO.
00:38:46Wait, hold on.
00:38:48Wow, Julian.
00:38:50Are these actually real?
00:38:52Oh, wow.
00:38:53These are nice.
00:38:54Daisy, you really shouldn't be doing this.
00:38:56Just let me check again.
00:38:58One more time, please.
00:39:01Please.
00:39:14Daisy, you asked for this.
00:39:38Okay, I'm fine.
00:39:40I'm fine.
00:39:43I'm fine.
00:39:44Daisy?
00:39:45Daisy, you're up already?
00:39:46Yeah.
00:39:47I sobered up pretty early and headed home.
00:39:49Then I realized I left something here,
00:39:50so I came back to grab it.
00:39:52You went home?
00:39:52That makes sense.
00:39:53I brought you soup last night
00:39:55and knocked on your door forever,
00:39:56but no one answered.
00:39:57Yeah.
00:40:00Oh, damn it.
00:40:03What the hell happened last night?
00:40:05Sir, the car is ready for your trip to the office.
00:40:07Last night?
00:40:09Who brought me back here?
00:40:10The celebration got pretty chaotic, sir.
00:40:12I was handling the aftermath with the hotel staff
00:40:14and didn't see who escorted you upstairs.
00:40:16Would you like me to pull the security footage to check?
00:40:19No.
00:40:20Whatever happened last night stays quiet.
00:40:22I don't want any rumors spreading around the company.
00:40:24Understood, sir.
00:40:28Sir, this appears to belong to a lady.
00:40:34An earring.
00:40:39Daisy, was that you last night?
00:40:43Sir, there's a critical issue with the London acquisition.
00:40:46The team on the ground needs your immediate input.
00:40:48We need to leave right away.
00:40:57Get the jet ready.
00:40:58We're leaving now.
00:40:58What about Miss Daisy?
00:40:59Should we inform her you're leaving?
00:41:01She stays in New York.
00:41:03She just made manager.
00:41:04Time to prove she earned the title.
00:41:09Daisy!
00:41:10That's the third time this week.
00:41:12Your stomach's been acting up non-stop.
00:41:13Are you sure you're okay?
00:41:15Here, take this.
00:41:16It helped me when I had food poisonous last month.
00:41:18It won't help.
00:41:19I've tried everything.
00:41:20I can't keep anything down, not even water.
00:41:24You're throwing up like crazy.
00:41:26Don't tell me you're pregnant or something.
00:41:34Oh, God.
00:41:35I'm pregnant.
00:41:38Would he even want you?
00:41:40Would he even care?
00:41:43Manager Daisy, the CEO has landed back in New York.
00:41:47He's back?
00:41:48Yes, ma'am.
00:41:49He's in his top floor office now, and he wants you there immediately.
00:41:56Manager Daisy, it's been a month.
00:41:58You look different.
00:42:03I've just been adjusting to the new position, sir.
00:42:06Still getting used to everything.
00:42:08The workload, the team, all of it.
00:42:11Is that so?
00:42:14Because it feels like you've been avoiding me.
00:42:17Every email, every report.
00:42:19You keep things as impersonal as possible.
00:42:29Sir, I read something in the news recently.
00:42:32It got me thinking.
00:42:33Go ahead.
00:42:34I'm listening.
00:42:35A woman got pregnant by a billionaire by accident.
00:42:38No strings attached, just a one-night thing.
00:42:42What do you think a man like that would do?
00:42:46Would he step up?
00:42:48Or walk away?
00:42:51Daisy, I've seen that story more times than I can count.
00:42:54Women trying to trap rich men with a baby.
00:42:57Hoping for a payout.
00:42:59A title.
00:43:00A spot in their lives.
00:43:04It's predictable.
00:43:06Pathetic, even.
00:43:07And if it were real?
00:43:09If it wasn't a trap?
00:43:10If it was just an accident?
00:43:12What would you do?
00:43:13Be honest.
00:43:15Listen to me.
00:43:16There's no place in my life for accidents.
00:43:19No room for mistakes.
00:43:21No time for distractions.
00:43:23Unless it's with the woman I love.
00:43:26Someone I chose.
00:43:27Someone I want to build a life with.
00:43:29No one is having my child.
00:43:31Not now.
00:43:32Not ever.
00:43:33And if something like that ever happened.
00:43:35If some woman tried to tie me down with that kind of situation.
00:43:38I'd clean into it immediately.
00:43:39I wouldn't let it go further at all.
00:43:43I'd make sure it never became a problem.
00:43:45The woman he loves?
00:43:47That's the only one who matters to him.
00:43:50To him, you're just an accident.
00:43:52A mistake he'd erase without a second thought.
00:43:55But you're not a mistake.
00:43:57Not to me.
00:43:59It's okay, baby.
00:44:01I won't let him find out.
00:44:03I'll protect you no matter what.
00:44:04Even if it means hiding this from him forever.
00:44:11Daisy.
00:44:12You recognize this, don't you?
00:44:20Someone left it in my bed after the celebration.
00:44:23Next morning, she was gone before sunrise.
00:44:28Vanished without a word, like she was never there.
00:44:31Tell me, Daisy.
00:44:32Why leave in such a hurry?
00:44:34Afraid of what might happen if you stayed?
00:44:36Sir.
00:44:38I think you've got the wrong person.
00:44:40Do I?
00:44:41Because your reaction says otherwise.
00:44:44I drank too much that night.
00:44:45Chloe took me home, she can tell you that.
00:44:47And the earring?
00:44:49Sure, it looks similar.
00:44:51But pieces like that are a dime a dozen in New York.
00:44:55It could belong to anyone.
00:44:58Sounds like you had quite a night, sir.
00:45:00Not even knowing who you woke up next to must be nice.
00:45:06If there's nothing else, I should get back to work.
00:45:08My team is waiting for me.
00:45:17Damn it!
00:45:20Sir?
00:45:21Is everything alright?
00:45:22Marcus.
00:45:23Find her.
00:45:24Find who, sir?
00:45:25Pull every security feed from the celebration night.
00:45:28Every hallway, every elevator, every entrance and exit in the hotel.
00:45:32I want to see every person who came near my suite.
00:45:36Check all hotel access logs, too.
00:45:38Who used key cards, who was signed in as a guest, who had access to the presidential floor.
00:45:44If it wasn't Daisy, then someone planned this.
00:45:48Someone snuck into my room, left that earring, and vanished.
00:45:51Trying to mess with me, or worse.
00:45:54Find the woman who got into my room.
00:45:56Find her, and don't stop until you do.
00:45:59And when you do,
00:46:01make sure she regrets ever crossing me.
00:46:04Make sure she pays for playing games with me.
00:46:06Understood, sir.
00:46:07I'll start immediately.
00:46:13Sir, Miss Daisy didn't look too good when she left just now.
00:46:17She seemed tense.
00:46:18Pale, even.
00:46:20Should we maybe talk to her?
00:46:22Clear things up before this gets any more complicated?
00:46:24Clear up what?
00:46:25That I don't even know who the woman was in my bed that night?
00:46:28I just mean,
00:46:30if you keep investigating this quietly,
00:46:32she might get the wrong idea.
00:46:34Listen to me, Marcus.
00:46:36Daisy cannot find out about this investigation.
00:46:38Not yet.
00:46:39But sir, secrets like this don't stay hidden forever.
00:46:42Once I review all the surveillance from that night,
00:46:44and track down the woman who set me up,
00:46:46who left that earring and vanished,
00:46:48I'll tell Daisy everything myself.
00:46:50I'll explain.
00:46:51But until then,
00:46:52watch what you say.
00:46:54Don't mention the investigation to anyone.
00:46:56Yes, sir.
00:46:57I won't say a word.
00:46:59Miss Victoria,
00:47:00please don't upset yourself.
00:47:02Mr. Julian must have been fooled by that country girl.
00:47:05Daisy.
00:47:05She's just a lucky nobody.
00:47:06He'll come to his senses sooner or later
00:47:08and regret pushing you away.
00:47:11Tiffany,
00:47:12how long have you been working with me?
00:47:14How long have you been by my side?
00:47:16Almost three years now, Miss Victoria.
00:47:19I've always thought you were smarter than Daisy.
00:47:21Sharper,
00:47:21more capable,
00:47:22and far more refined.
00:47:23You deserve better than being stuck as a low-level assistant.
00:47:26You're too kind, Miss Victoria.
00:47:28I just try to do my best.
00:47:29Someone like Daisy doesn't belong in that manager's office.
00:47:32She's a farm girl with no class,
00:47:34no connections,
00:47:35no idea how the corporate world works.
00:47:38That position should have been yours from the start.
00:47:43You've earned it.
00:47:45Mine?
00:47:46I could be marketing manager?
00:47:47If you can push Daisy out of Sterling Group,
00:47:50make her disappear from Manhattan,
00:47:51make her too embarrassed or too scared to come back,
00:47:54I'll use every family connection I have on the board
00:47:57to back you as the next marketing manager.
00:48:00You really mean that?
00:48:02We're the same kind of people, Tiffany.
00:48:04You and me,
00:48:05we understand how this world works.
00:48:08We know that to get what you want,
00:48:10you have to fight for it.
00:48:13I get it.
00:48:14I'll make sure she crashes hard on the way down.
00:48:17Good.
00:48:18She's a stain on Sterling Group
00:48:19and on Julian.
00:48:23Daisy,
00:48:24let's see how long you can stay proud.
00:48:34Daisy,
00:48:34you need to see this.
00:48:35The company forum is blowing up.
00:48:37People are saying the CEO is secretly married
00:48:39and his wife is some mysterious high society woman from Europe.
00:48:45Office gossip.
00:48:46You actually buy that nonsense?
00:48:48Why wouldn't I?
00:48:49A guy like Julian,
00:48:50top of the food chair,
00:48:51handsome,
00:48:51loaded.
00:48:52What kind of woman do you think could actually lock him down?
00:48:55Come on,
00:48:56Daisy,
00:48:56you've been around him a lot lately,
00:48:58way more than anyone else.
00:48:59You really haven't noticed anything?
00:49:01Any little clues?
00:49:03A ring,
00:49:04a secret call,
00:49:05something?
00:49:06I focus on work,
00:49:07nothing else.
00:49:08The CEO's personal life isn't any of my business.
00:49:10Yeah,
00:49:11figures.
00:49:12People like him live in a whole different world from us.
00:49:15We can only guess.
00:49:18Well,
00:49:19look who it is.
00:49:20Our so-called violin genius,
00:49:22turned marketing manager,
00:49:24turned whatever you're trying to be now.
00:49:27Still making your own coffee even after becoming a manager?
00:49:30What's wrong?
00:49:31Miss being the janitor already?
00:49:33Miss scrubbing floors and cleaning after everyone else?
00:49:37If you spent half this energy on your work instead of running your mouth,
00:49:41last quarter's reports wouldn't be such a disaster.
00:49:43You might actually be useful around here.
00:49:47Daisy,
00:49:48playing some ordinary songs in a busy station doesn't make you special.
00:49:52Girls like you,
00:49:53ambitious,
00:49:54without background or connections,
00:49:56trying to get close to the CEO just to move up faster,
00:49:59climb into his bed,
00:50:00sounds like something you'd know more about than me.
00:50:03You've been practically drooling over him since you started working here.
00:50:07Say that again!
00:50:08I dare you!
00:50:10Victoria's gone.
00:50:11Fired, remember?
00:50:12Now you're just a stray dog barking in the hallway,
00:50:15trying to pick up her scraps?
00:50:17Or are you planning to follow her out the door next?
00:50:20Because that's where you're headed if you keep wasting company time on this.
00:50:23You're nothing but lucky.
00:50:25A lucky nobody who got a handout.
00:50:27You really think Julian cares about you?
00:50:30There's a woman he's been looking for his whole life.
00:50:32The one who saved him when he was a kid.
00:50:34She's the only person he'll ever love.
00:50:37The only one who matters.
00:50:38You don't even register.
00:50:41To him, you're nothing.
00:50:43Not even close.
00:50:45What the hell is going on in here?
00:50:55Tiffany.
00:50:56Did Sterling Group hire you to start fights in the break room?
00:50:59To harass your superiors?
00:51:00Mr. Julian, I was just...
00:51:01I was just discussing work with Manager Daisy.
00:51:03It wasn't a fight, I swear.
00:51:05Discussing work?
00:51:06Is that what you call it?
00:51:09Marcus.
00:51:10Yes, sir.
00:51:11Cut her entire bonus for this month.
00:51:13No exceptions.
00:51:14And if I hear this kind of talk again,
00:51:16if I see you so much as look at Daisy the wrong way,
00:51:18she's done here.
00:51:19Fired.
00:51:20No second chances.
00:51:21Understood?
00:51:22Yes, sir.
00:51:24I understand.
00:51:25I'm sorry.
00:51:27I'm sorry.
00:51:37This is impossible.
00:51:39There are millions of women in New York.
00:51:41How am I supposed to find one woman with just an earring?
00:51:43Cinderella loses one earring,
00:51:45and I'm the poor guy stuck searching the whole city for her.
00:51:48This is ridiculous.
00:51:50Cinderella?
00:51:51So the CEO is looking for a woman,
00:51:54and that earring is the only clue.
00:51:56Looks like fate just handed me an opportunity.
00:51:59Mrs. Sterling,
00:52:00that position is mine.
00:52:08Oh.
00:52:12Stop.
00:52:13Mr. Julian?
00:52:14Did you call me?
00:52:15I'm so sorry.
00:52:16I dropped these.
00:52:17I wasn't paying attention.
00:52:19That earring.
00:52:20Where did you get it?
00:52:21It was a gift.
00:52:23From some very important to me.
00:52:25Someone I'll never forget.
00:52:31Out.
00:52:34Mr. Julian,
00:52:35I don't understand.
00:52:36It's me.
00:52:52Marcus,
00:52:53you're sure about this?
00:52:54The woman who got into my room that night
00:52:56was really her?
00:52:57The earring matches exactly, sir.
00:52:59It's identical to the one we found in your suite.
00:53:01There's no other reasonable expert.
00:53:02Figures.
00:53:02A woman like that,
00:53:03desperate, greedy,
00:53:04clawing for power,
00:53:05would do anything to climb the corporate ladder
00:53:06to lie to someone like me.
00:53:07Cheap ambition all into her face
00:53:08that a single night of carelessness
00:53:09would be enough to trap me?
00:53:10What a joke.
00:53:11Pathetic, really.
00:53:12Listen carefully, Marcus.
00:53:14Contact the best private hospital in the city.
00:53:16Make the arrangements.
00:53:16No questions asked.
00:53:18If she's pregnant,
00:53:19if she's stupid enough
00:53:19to try that tired, cheap trick,
00:53:21I want it handled.
00:53:22Immediately.
00:53:22No delays,
00:53:23no excuses.
00:53:24Sir,
00:53:25if she asks for compensation,
00:53:26if she demands a settlement,
00:53:27then give her the money!
00:53:28Write whatever check she wants,
00:53:2910,000, 100,000 more.
00:53:30Just get her out of New York.
00:53:32Get her as far away from me as possible
00:53:33and make sure she never comes back.
00:53:35I don't want it kept.
00:53:36Not for a second.
00:53:37Understood?
00:53:39Cheap,
00:53:40dirty,
00:53:42disposable,
00:53:44a gold-digging liar.
00:53:45So this is what I am to you.
00:53:48Just someone you can use for one night,
00:53:51then erase whenever you want.
00:53:58I won't let you touch him.
00:54:01I won't let you hurt my baby.
00:54:08Well, well, Manager Daisy.
00:54:11You look like you've seen a ghost.
00:54:14Mr. Julian just called me into his office.
00:54:17Asked me a lot of
00:54:17very personal questions.
00:54:19Looks like that manager title of yours
00:54:21is about to go to someone
00:54:21with a little more value.
00:54:23Someone who actually matters to the CEO.
00:54:26See this?
00:54:27This is what the boss has been looking for.
00:54:29The clue to the woman from that night.
00:54:30Daisy,
00:54:31you probably wouldn't even get close to jewelry
00:54:32like this in your lifetime.
00:54:34You're just a farm girl after all.
00:54:35Tiffany,
00:54:36you really think a fake piece of jewelry
00:54:38is going to win you his heart?
00:54:39You have no idea
00:54:40what kind of abyss you're walking into.
00:54:42Julian isn't someone you can manipulate.
00:54:44Abyss?
00:54:44Still better than being a person like you.
00:54:46Someone who never even got through the door.
00:54:48You think he cares about you?
00:54:49You're just a temporary toy to him.
00:54:50When I become Mrs. Sterling,
00:54:52I'll personally send you back
00:54:53to your little Kentucky farm
00:54:54to feed pigs.
00:54:55You'll never set foot in Manhattan again.
00:54:58Mrs. Sterling.
00:54:59Good luck with that.
00:55:01Hope you keep smiling this confidently
00:55:02when you realize
00:55:03what you've gotten yourself into.
00:55:07So Julian got the wrong person.
00:55:10He thinks Tiffany was the one
00:55:11in his room that night.
00:55:12The one who left the earring.
00:55:13The one he's been searching for.
00:55:15So that's the truth.
00:55:16Because he thinks it's Tiffany's baby.
00:55:18He can destroy it
00:55:19without even blinking.
00:55:21In his world,
00:55:22people like us don't matter.
00:55:23Not even our lives.
00:55:26Nothing is more important
00:55:27than the Sterling name
00:55:28than his pride.
00:55:31Tiffany,
00:55:32this is the last time I'm asking.
00:55:34August 11th,
00:55:35the night of the company celebration.
00:55:37Was it you in my hotel room?
00:55:39Yes, Mr. Julian.
00:55:40It was me.
00:55:40I was so nervous that night.
00:55:42I left before you woke up
00:55:43because I thought
00:55:44you might not remember me
00:55:45or that you'd regret it.
00:55:46Then tell me something.
00:55:47Something only the woman
00:55:48from that night would know.
00:55:49What do you remember
00:55:50about me that night?
00:55:52Anything specific?
00:55:54I, uh,
00:55:55you're in great shape.
00:55:57Strong.
00:55:57Very, very charming.
00:55:59I was so overwhelmed by you.
00:56:02You really like
00:56:03this perfume.
00:56:07The floral one.
00:56:08Chlorine,
00:56:09clying,
00:56:10overbearing.
00:56:12It makes me sick.
00:56:14Mr. Julian,
00:56:15it's the latest limited edition.
00:56:17That room didn't smell like this.
00:56:18The woman from that night
00:56:19smelled like jasmine.
00:56:21Soft, subtle,
00:56:21nothing like this overdone garbage.
00:56:24Look at it.
00:56:25Really look.
00:56:26Top jewelry expert
00:56:27already checked it.
00:56:28Hand cut.
00:56:29One of a kind.
00:56:30South African deep sea diamond.
00:56:35And yours?
00:56:36Cheap motionite.
00:56:38Fake.
00:56:38Not even the same material.
00:56:41You thought this would fool me?
00:56:43Mr. Julian, please.
00:56:44I was wrong.
00:56:45I'm so sorry.
00:56:46It wasn't my idea.
00:56:47Victoria, it was Victoria.
00:56:49Victoria, she told me to do it.
00:56:50Please, give me another chance.
00:56:52I'll do anything.
00:56:53You tried to get into my bed,
00:56:55lied to my face,
00:56:57and play me like an idiot.
00:57:00That takes guts.
00:57:01I'll give you that.
00:57:03Marcus.
00:57:03Yes, sir.
00:57:05Call every headhunter in New York.
00:57:07Every investment firm,
00:57:08every corporate recruiter,
00:57:10every agency.
00:57:11Even bars and clubs,
00:57:13diners,
00:57:13anywhere that hires people.
00:57:16No!
00:57:17Mr. Julian!
00:57:18Please!
00:57:19You can't do this to me!
00:57:21I have nowhere to go!
00:57:23If it wasn't her,
00:57:24then where the hell is the woman from that night?
00:57:27Who was she?
00:57:28And why did she leave?
00:57:32Mr. Julian, please.
00:57:34Don't blacklist me.
00:57:35I'm begging you.
00:57:39Marcus.
00:57:40Get her out of here.
00:57:41I don't want to see her anywhere in this building again.
00:57:55That earring.
00:57:57Why does Mr. Julian have it?
00:58:06Daisy.
00:58:07Hey, what's wrong?
00:58:08You look really pale.
00:58:09I'm okay, Caleb.
00:58:10Just didn't sleep much last night.
00:58:12Daisy.
00:58:12The earrings I gave you.
00:58:13Did you lose one?
00:58:14I just saw it in the CEO's office.
00:58:16He really had it?
00:58:17That pair was custom-made.
00:58:18Only one in New York.
00:58:19Took me six months of savings to get it.
00:58:21Why would Mr. Julian have it?
00:58:22Is he giving you trouble?
00:58:22If she's pregnant, handle it immediately.
00:58:24I'm sorry, Caleb.
00:58:25I lost it.
00:58:27I really didn't mean to.
00:58:29Hey, it's okay.
00:58:30It's just an earring.
00:58:32Don't cry.
00:58:33As long as you're safe,
00:58:34that's all that matters.
00:58:39Caleb.
00:58:41Who the hell do you think you are?
00:58:49Julian!
00:58:50Have you lost it?
00:58:51Let go of me!
00:58:52Daisy.
00:58:53Have I been too easy on you?
00:58:55Hugging a security guard in the lobby in front of the entire company?
00:58:57Caleb is not a security guard.
00:58:59He's family.
00:59:00Mr. Sterling, you're crossing a line.
00:59:02Family?
00:59:02Since when does family hold each other like that?
00:59:04Don't forget who you are, Daisy.
00:59:06You're Mrs. Sterling.
00:59:07My wife.
00:59:08Contract wife.
00:59:09That's all I am.
00:59:11So show some boundaries, Julian.
00:59:18Mr. Caleb, we should talk.
00:59:20Daisy isn't someone you should be pursuing.
00:59:23I know what you're implying.
00:59:24Yeah.
00:59:25I like Daisy.
00:59:26Always have.
00:59:27Since we were kids.
00:59:28Then keep your distance.
00:59:29She only sees me as a brother.
00:59:32She's suffered enough since coming to New York.
00:59:34I just want to protect her.
00:59:38I don't know what CEO is trying to pull.
00:59:41But if he uses those earrings I gave Daisy to embarrass her or hurt her,
00:59:45I won't let it happen.
00:59:47Hold on.
00:59:48Earrings?
00:59:49What earrings?
00:59:52Mr. Sterling!
00:59:53We found something!
00:59:56Get out.
00:59:57The earring.
00:59:58It was Caleb's promotion gift to Daisy.
01:00:01Custom made.
01:00:02One of a kind.
01:00:04Caleb admitted it himself.
01:00:06Daisy is the woman from that night.
01:00:11It's her.
01:00:13It was her all along.
01:00:19You wanted to see me?
01:00:20Daisy.
01:00:22Are you still going to deny it?
01:00:24I don't know what you mean.
01:00:25Caleb told me.
01:00:27Custom made.
01:00:27One pair in the whole city.
01:00:29August 11th.
01:00:30The woman in my room.
01:00:31That was you.
01:00:31It's always been you.
01:00:32Isn't it?
01:00:34I thought it was just a mistake.
01:00:35It didn't have to mean anything.
01:00:36Then why'd you run?
01:00:37Why let me go crazy looking for you and not say a word?
01:00:40Daisy.
01:00:42I've been searching for you this whole time.
01:00:44The woman I love.
01:00:45It's always been you.
01:00:47Which one is real?
01:00:48The man standing in front of me?
01:00:50Or the one who wanted to get rid of my baby?
01:00:52Julian.
01:00:52Don't.
01:00:53I can't do this.
01:00:54I'm a mess right now.
01:00:55You say you love me?
01:00:56But do you even know what you were looking for?
01:00:58If I was just some ordinary girl or worse a problem.
01:01:01Would you still feel this way?
01:01:03Daisy.
01:01:03What are you talking about?
01:01:04You're you.
01:01:05My wife.
01:01:05That's all that matters.
01:01:06No.
01:01:08I don't buy it.
01:01:09This.
01:01:09Whatever this is.
01:01:10It's too fast.
01:01:11It freaks me out.
01:01:13I don't even know if tomorrow you'll go right back to being that cold distant CEO again.
01:01:29Julian.
01:01:30Do you actually love me?
01:01:32Or is this just because of that night?
01:01:35Daisy.
01:01:36Look at me.
01:01:37From the moment you walked into my life.
01:01:38There's been no one else.
01:01:40Not before.
01:01:41Not now.
01:01:42Not ever.
01:01:45I love you.
01:01:49Not out of obligation.
01:01:51Not because of some deal.
01:01:52Just because you're you.
01:01:56Mr. Sterling.
01:01:57I was just dropping off some files.
01:01:58Yeah.
01:01:59Files.
01:01:59Right.
01:02:00We were just checking in on something work related.
01:02:03I pay you to do your jobs.
01:02:04Not to lurk outside my office.
01:02:07Sterling.
01:02:07We'll go.
01:02:07Right now.
01:02:08Don't let it happen again.
01:02:09If I hear one word, one rumor about what goes on in here, you can collect your final paycheck from
01:02:14finance.
01:02:17Did you hear that?
01:02:19He said Daisy's the only one for him.
01:02:21That was basically a love confession.
01:02:23I'm telling you something about her.
01:02:25She keeps it low key, but still, what if she's actually his wife?
01:02:29You know, the one no one's ever seen.
01:02:31Please.
01:02:32A nobody like her?
01:02:33She didn't get there by accident.
01:02:35Seriously?
01:02:36That's enough.
01:02:37You've seen how hard Daisy works.
01:02:38She earned her spot.
01:02:40Chloe, of course you'd defend her.
01:02:42But this whole secret wife thing.
01:02:44So what if it's real?
01:02:45If you're that jealous, go get the boss to confess to you.
01:02:48If Daisy is Mrs. Sterling, then yeah, she deserves it.
01:02:52Daisy, I don't know what's really going on with you and Mr. Sterling, but I'm on your side.
01:02:58Always.
01:03:01Oh my god.
01:03:02Did you hear?
01:03:03Mr. Sterling just confessed in his office.
01:03:05You're kidding.
01:03:05Then Daisy, she has to be the secret Mrs. Sterling.
01:03:07She really kept that under wraps.
01:03:08And Victoria, acting like she owned the place before, turns out she just made a fool of herself.
01:03:13Daisy, so it really is you.
01:03:16You actually took what's mine.
01:03:19Daisy, you two-faced snake.
01:03:22What did you do?
01:03:23What kind of dirty tricks did you pull to get into Julian's bed and steal the title of Mrs. Sterling?
01:03:27Victoria, this is the office.
01:03:29Pull yourself together.
01:03:30Pull myself together?
01:03:31You destroyed everything I had and you're telling me to calm down?
01:03:39Look at yourself, Victoria.
01:03:41It's honestly pathetic.
01:03:44What did you just say?
01:03:46You had everything.
01:03:47Status, looks, talent.
01:03:49Julian respected you.
01:03:51Gave you more than enough.
01:03:52Shut up!
01:03:53And what did you do with it?
01:03:55You threw it all away over a man who doesn't even love you.
01:03:58Shut up!
01:03:59Who do you think you are?
01:04:00I'm not trying to teach you anything.
01:04:02That position you're so obsessed with?
01:04:06Once the divorce is finalized, it's yours.
01:04:08I'll walk away.
01:04:11I don't fight other women over a man.
01:04:13Especially not one who doesn't love you.
01:04:15Once you're gone, Julian will come back to me!
01:04:18Even if you take something that was never yours?
01:04:21Taste it these Leah Brown now instead me?
01:04:24How long do you think you can keep it?
01:04:27A Mrs. Sterling built on schemes?
01:04:30You really think you can hold on to that?
01:04:32You're shameless!
01:04:33I'll never let you get away with this!
01:04:38Daisy?
01:04:39Daisy, where are you?
01:04:40So what if you won that little argument?
01:04:42To Julian, you'll always be the cunning, bitter one.
01:04:47What are you doing?
01:04:48Watch and learn.
01:04:50This is how you play it right.
01:04:57Victoria!
01:05:00Julian, it hurts.
01:05:02It hurts so bad.
01:05:04Please, help me.
01:05:05Julian, it wasn't me.
01:05:07She jumped.
01:05:09I didn't push her, I swear.
01:05:11Just listen to me.
01:05:12Don't talk.
01:05:13Just stay with me.
01:05:15I've got you.
01:05:16I'm taking you to the hospital.
01:05:18Julian!
01:05:18I did it!
01:05:22Julian, so this is it?
01:05:25This is your no one else?
01:05:29Mr. Sterling?
01:05:30I'm afraid the situation isn't great.
01:05:33Miss Victoria has severe nerve damage in her right arm.
01:05:35She'll regain basic use, but playing the violin at a professional level again is very unlikely.
01:05:42Julian, I've spent 20 years on this.
01:05:44It's my whole life.
01:05:45It's all gone.
01:05:47What am I supposed to do now?
01:05:49No, no, my hand.
01:05:55Victoria, hey, calm down.
01:05:57I'll find the best specialist out there.
01:05:58We're not out of options yet.
01:06:00Calm down?
01:06:01How do you expect me to calm down?
01:06:03She did this!
01:06:04Daisy ruined me!
01:06:05She pushed me!
01:06:06She knew I'm a violinist!
01:06:08She wanted to destroy my hands!
01:06:10I'll say it one last time.
01:06:12I didn't push her.
01:06:13Daisy, stop.
01:06:15Look at the situation.
01:06:16Her arm's broken.
01:06:17Her career's over.
01:06:19So what?
01:06:20Now I'm the villain in your story?
01:06:22Victoria ended up like this because of us.
01:06:24Daisy, I'm asking you.
01:06:26Just apologize.
01:06:29Apologize?
01:06:30Julian, I didn't do it.
01:06:32And I'm not owning something I didn't do.
01:06:34She's lost everything.
01:06:35Is saying sorry really that hard?
01:06:37Yeah, it is.
01:06:38Because that's the last bit of self-respect I have left.
01:06:40I'm sorry.
01:06:41On Daisy's behalf.
01:06:42And I'll take full responsibility for what happens next.
01:06:44Take responsibility.
01:06:46Fine, Julian.
01:06:48Then spend the rest of your life doing exactly that.
01:06:56Mom, I'm coming home.
01:06:59Yeah, I shouldn't have come to New York.
01:07:01I don't belong here.
01:07:08Daisy!
01:07:09Stop!
01:07:10We're not done talking!
01:07:12About what?
01:07:13How you're going to take care of your violinist?
01:07:15I'm trying to fix this.
01:07:16Victoria's not in a good place.
01:07:18I can't just leave her like that.
01:07:19Wow.
01:07:20Look at you.
01:07:21Mr. Responsible.
01:07:27Divorce papers.
01:07:28Signed.
01:07:29And a check.
01:07:30One hundred thousand.
01:07:31Divorce papers?
01:07:32Daisy?
01:07:33What are you doing?
01:07:35That money.
01:07:35I earned every cent at Sterling.
01:07:37It's clean.
01:07:38What I owed you, consider it settled.
01:07:41From now on, I don't owe you anything.
01:07:44Not my life.
01:07:45Not my heart.
01:07:48When did you do this?
01:07:50Piece by piece.
01:07:51When you chose to doubt me.
01:07:53For her.
01:07:54When you didn't even hesitate to carry her away.
01:07:59When you asked me to apologize to that psycho.
01:08:05Daisy!
01:08:06Get out!
01:08:06Let's go back to the office and talk this through.
01:08:08It's not what you think!
01:08:14Daisy.
01:08:18Mr. Sterling.
01:08:19Mr. Sterling.
01:08:20We got it.
01:08:22Hidden cam in the stairwell.
01:08:24Watch this.
01:08:25Victoria grabs Daisy's hand.
01:08:26Then throws herself backward.
01:08:28On purpose.
01:08:29She did that to herself?
01:08:31She gambled her own hand?
01:08:32Just to set Daisy up?
01:08:33Yeah.
01:08:34And the doctor came clean.
01:08:35She paid him off.
01:08:36It's not serious.
01:08:37Just a sprain.
01:08:38Damn it!
01:08:39I actually believed her.
01:08:41Where's Daisy?
01:08:42Where is she?
01:08:43We traced her ride.
01:08:43She's heading to JFK.
01:08:49Come on!
01:08:50Pick up!
01:08:50Daisy, please!
01:08:52Just answer me!
01:08:56Sir.
01:08:57Stop.
01:08:59Which gate?
01:09:00Tell me where she is!
01:09:01The flight to her hometown left ten minutes ago.
01:09:08I lost her.
01:09:11I'm the one who drove her away.
01:09:18Sir!
01:09:19We've got something.
01:09:22You find her?
01:09:23She didn't board.
01:09:24I checked every flight to Kentucky last night.
01:09:26She had a ticket but never made it to the gate.
01:09:28Didn't board.
01:09:30So she's not even going home.
01:09:32We don't know why yet.
01:09:33But I've got people checking all the major transit hops.
01:09:39I'm coming.
01:09:45Mr. Sterling!
01:09:46Morning!
01:09:47Chloe, you're thirty minutes late.
01:09:48I had a reason.
01:09:49I was with Daisy at the airport last night.
01:09:51We were there forever.
01:09:52I barely slept.
01:09:53You were with her?
01:09:57Where is she?
01:09:58Marcus said she didn't board.
01:09:59Why?
01:10:00Don't even ask.
01:10:02She passed out in the terminal.
01:10:03Couldn't wake her.
01:10:04By the time she woke up, the plane was already gone.
01:10:07Where is she now?
01:10:08She didn't want to pay to rebook.
01:10:11Said she'd rather send the money home.
01:10:15So, she's probably at the Greyhound station by now.
01:10:18Trying to switch to a bus.
01:10:21Greyhound station.
01:10:22Move.
01:10:23Yes, sir.
01:10:27Did he just get a second wind or something?
01:10:36Now arriving at gate six, New York.
01:10:47Julian?
01:10:47Julian?
01:10:48You really think you can just leave like that?
01:10:53Let go, Julian.
01:10:54I already signed the divorce papers.
01:10:57We're done.
01:11:00Done?
01:11:01Daisy, until I sign those papers, you're still Mrs. Sterling.
01:11:05No signature from me.
01:11:07No divorce.
01:11:08No resignation.
01:11:11None of it goes through.
01:11:12Hey, take it somewhere else.
01:11:14You're holding everyone up.
01:11:15You're getting on or not.
01:11:16We don't have all day.
01:11:17Move.
01:11:18I need to get on.
01:11:20Julian, stop this seriously.
01:11:23Last call.
01:11:24Either get on or I'm closing the doors.
01:11:31Everyone on this bus, I'm covering your tickets.
01:11:34And you each get an extra hundred bucks.
01:11:38No way.
01:11:39Seriously?
01:11:40That's insane.
01:11:41One condition.
01:11:42She doesn't get on this bus.
01:11:44Not a problem, sir.
01:11:46Not a problem at all.
01:11:47Sorry, miss.
01:11:48Bus is out of service.
01:11:50You'll have to step back.
01:11:51Julian, this is ridiculous.
01:11:54You can't just throw money around and control everything.
01:11:58Watch me.
01:11:59So what's it going to be, Daisy?
01:12:03You coming back with me?
01:12:05Or do I carry you out of here myself?
01:12:09You are unbelievable.
01:12:11If that's what it takes to keep you here, I'll take it.
01:12:17Daisy, I think you're forgetting something you signed when you joined the company.
01:12:21What are you talking about?
01:12:22Clause 12.
01:12:23If a senior manager quits without completing a proper handover,
01:12:26they owe ten times their total salary from the past three years.
01:12:29That's five million dollars.
01:12:31So are you cutting a check or coming back to work?
01:12:35Five million?
01:12:36Julian, that's ridiculous.
01:12:37This is straight up extortion.
01:12:39Where am I supposed to get that kind of money?
01:12:42Then I guess you don't have much of a choice.
01:12:44Come back and do your job.
01:12:49Perfect timing.
01:12:50The annual team retreat still needs someone to run it.
01:12:53I'm not doing it.
01:12:54Find someone else.
01:12:55It's in the Hamptons.
01:12:57The one thing everyone's been looking forward to all year.
01:13:00If you screw this up or try to run again, that penalty won't stay at five million.
01:13:04What do you actually want from me, Julian?
01:13:07I want you where I can see you.
01:13:09Focus on the retreat.
01:13:11That's your only job right now.
01:13:12Oh my god, the Hamptons?
01:13:14That's luxury central.
01:13:16Daisy, you have to nail this.
01:13:17Our entire company trip is riding on you.
01:13:19But seriously, you should have seen the boss that day.
01:13:22When he found out you missed your flight and were at the bus station, that look on his face, wow.
01:13:26He was worried I'd disappear and leave him stuck with the penalty.
01:13:30Oh please.
01:13:31He was so freaked out his tie was practically falling off.
01:13:34I've known Julian Sterling for years.
01:13:35I've never seen him that out of control.
01:13:38Chloe, there's a chain of command here.
01:13:40He's just protecting the company's interests.
01:13:41You're reading too much into it.
01:13:43Sure, sure.
01:13:44Company interests.
01:13:45Well then, manager Daisy, we're all counting on you to take us to the Hamptons and treat us right.
01:13:56Daisy, look at this.
01:13:57This is literally like something out of a movie.
01:13:59The boss really went all in this time.
01:14:01I swear, this feels unreal.
01:14:04Yeah, it's gorgeous.
01:14:08All right, everyone, grab your keys based on your assigned pairs.
01:14:11Two per room.
01:14:12Drop your bags and meet back in the lobby in 30 minutes.
01:14:17Daisy, come on.
01:14:18Second floor, garden view.
01:14:22Daisy, sorry.
01:14:23There's been a bit of a system glitch.
01:14:24Room 204 is already full.
01:14:26Chloe, you'll need to switch rooms.
01:14:27That doesn't make any sense.
01:14:28We're all accounted for.
01:14:29How is it full?
01:14:30So where am I staying?
01:14:31Well, since you're leading the retreat, Mr. Sterling figured you might need flexibility and comes up.
01:14:34He arranged, so he an executive suite for you.
01:14:36Top floor.
01:14:36Wait, seriously?
01:14:38The top floor suite?
01:14:39Marcus, you sure this is a system glitch?
01:14:43100%.
01:14:44Total system issue.
01:14:45Room 501.
01:14:47Best view in the whole place.
01:14:51So, how do you like this system glitch?
01:14:54Julian, I knew this was you.
01:14:56I'm switching rooms, even if I have to sleep on a couch.
01:14:57Not happening.
01:14:58Didn't Marcus tell you?
01:14:59Every room's taken.
01:15:00Even the attic's full.
01:15:01House Kemper's using it.
01:15:02This is insane.
01:15:03You can't just trap me here.
01:15:05It's called a couple's retreat.
01:15:06Don't forget, you're still an employee at Sterling Group.
01:15:09And legally, still my wife.
01:15:11While we're in the Hamptons, you stay with me.
01:15:14You better hope nothing goes wrong these next few days, Julian.
01:15:19Okay, just sitting around eating is boring.
01:15:22Let's play a little game.
01:15:23How about it?
01:15:23Pair up, and the losers get a penalty.
01:15:28Oh, no, you don't.
01:15:29You're not leaving.
01:15:30All right, who wants to team up with Daisy?
01:15:33Daisy.
01:15:34Daisy.
01:15:46Whoa, whoa.
01:15:49I've got her.
01:15:51Julian, are you serious?
01:15:53Everyone's watching.
01:15:54I'm setting the tone.
01:15:55Don't bail on me now.
01:16:16Oh, my God, yes!
01:16:18That's what I'm talking about!
01:16:26Bring out the priciest wine.
01:16:28My treat tonight.
01:16:37Oh, my God, that was everything.
01:16:39This is blowing up for sure.
01:16:41Chloe, don't post that.
01:16:43Go ahead.
01:16:44Let the whole company see who Mrs. Sterling really is.
01:16:54Daisy Miller, you'll see!
01:16:57Julian is mine.
01:16:58No one takes him from me.
01:16:59I'll make you regret ever crossing me!
01:17:04You called for Miss Victoria?
01:17:06Silas.
01:17:08Last I heard, you got kicked out for stealing from my family.
01:17:11Still employed?
01:17:12I didn't exactly have options back then.
01:17:14There's $100,000 on that.
01:17:16I've got a job for you.
01:17:18Head to the Hamptons.
01:17:19Get some photos of Daisy.
01:17:21I want to ruin her.
01:17:22I need Julian to see exactly what kind of woman he's been so obsessed with.
01:17:26Ruining a woman's reputation?
01:17:27Yeah.
01:17:29I'm very good at that.
01:17:35There you are.
01:17:36Julian's been looking everywhere for you.
01:17:37You're really hiding out here?
01:17:38It's just been a lot.
01:17:40My head's all over the place.
01:17:42Chloe, I'm going to head to the hot springs out back.
01:17:44I need some quiet.
01:17:45Don't tell him where I am, okay?
01:17:46Got it.
01:17:47You're alone time.
01:17:48Go soak, relax, get yourself all nice and refreshed.
01:17:52Pretty sure Julian's losing it waiting for you.
01:17:58Who's there?
01:18:10Who are you?
01:18:11What do you want?
01:18:12Too bad you crossed the wrong guy.
01:18:14My client wants you destroyed.
01:18:17Who sent you?
01:18:18Victoria, right?
01:18:20Don't flatter yourself.
01:18:22In this city, plenty of people would love to watch you crash and burn.
01:18:27Let's make this interesting.
01:18:28When Julian Stanley sees his perfect wife begging in front of another man, you really think he'll
01:18:33still put you on a pedestal?
01:18:35How much did they pay you?
01:18:37I'll double it.
01:18:38Double?
01:18:41I'm Julian Sturtling's wife.
01:18:43Legally.
01:18:44Let me go, and I won't press charges.
01:18:47I can make sure you walk away with more money than you'll ever need.
01:18:53Save it.
01:18:54I want cash.
01:18:55Up front.
01:18:56Once I get what I need, I get paid.
01:18:58That's the deal.
01:18:59Help!
01:19:00Julian!
01:19:01Help me!
01:19:07Sir, found something.
01:19:09Chloe said Daisy went to the hot springs half an hour ago, but when I got there, no one
01:19:12was there.
01:19:14These were in the bushes by the pool.
01:19:16Damn it.
01:19:17Something's wrong.
01:19:18Lock down the estate.
01:19:19No one in.
01:19:19No one out.
01:19:20Get security.
01:19:21Search every room.
01:19:22I don't care how.
01:19:23Tear this place apart if you have to.
01:19:24Find her.
01:19:25Now!
01:19:26No!
01:19:27No!
01:19:28No!
01:19:30No!
01:19:31No!
01:19:31No!
01:19:31No!
01:19:31No!
01:19:31No!
01:19:34You think you can touch her?
01:19:36Sir, we've got this.
01:19:40I'm here.
01:19:41It's okay.
01:19:42I'm sorry, Daisy.
01:19:43I'm so sorry.
01:19:45Take him.
01:19:46Make sure he remembers what happens when you go after what's mine.
01:19:50Julian, please, save the baby.
01:19:53I hit my stomach earlier.
01:19:55It hurt so bad.
01:19:56The baby?
01:19:58Daisy, what are you saying?
01:19:59I'm pregnant.
01:20:00About a month.
01:20:01Please don't let anything happen to him.
01:20:05Marcus, get a doctor.
01:20:07Now!
01:20:07I don't care who you call.
01:20:08Just get the best one here.
01:20:09Now!
01:20:12Doctor, my baby.
01:20:14Is it okay?
01:20:15Miss Daisy, I've run the exam a few times.
01:20:18You're not pregnant.
01:20:21No, that's not possible.
01:20:23I saw it.
01:20:24Two lines.
01:20:25Clear as day.
01:20:26False positives happen.
01:20:27Especially if the test is expired or wasn't stored properly.
01:20:31As for your symptoms, nausea, discomfort, that's most likely severe gastric spesms made worse by stress.
01:20:39Why didn't you tell me you were really going to leave without saying anything?
01:20:44I didn't know how.
01:20:46Didn't know how?
01:20:47Daisy, I'm your husband.
01:20:48What were you afraid of?
01:20:50I thought you'd make me get rid of it.
01:20:52Why would I ever do that?
01:20:53Because I heard you.
01:20:55You told Marcus, unless it's with the woman you actually love, you'd never let anyone have your child.
01:21:00There's someone in your heart, Julian.
01:21:01There always has been.
01:21:03And me, I'm just the contract wife.
01:21:05I figured if I kept the baby, you'd think I was crossing a line.
01:21:08Like I was tinting the Sterling name.
01:21:10Daisy, you really don't get it, do you?
01:21:13What?
01:21:13The person I've loved this whole time, it's you.
01:21:16It's always been you.
01:21:18But three years ago, you said someone saved you.
01:21:20Yeah.
01:21:21Three years ago.
01:21:22Kentucky.
01:21:23That snowstorm.
01:21:24The girl who pulled me out of the wreck.
01:21:25Who stopped the bleeding.
01:21:26That was you.
01:21:27I didn't even see your face.
01:21:29I was just trying to help.
01:21:30I've been looking for you ever since.
01:21:33That's why I turned down my grandfather's arrangement.
01:21:36And Victoria, I only kept her around because of history.
01:21:39That's it.
01:21:39I never loved her.
01:21:40Daisy, it's always been you.
01:21:46Sir, Silas talked.
01:21:49Victoria paid him $100,000.
01:21:51She told him to kidnap Miss Daisy and take embarrassing photos of her.
01:21:56She wanted you to turn against her completely.
01:21:58So, she wants to play games.
01:22:00Fine.
01:22:02Change the entire closing event.
01:22:04Should I call the police?
01:22:05No.
01:22:06That's too easy.
01:22:08I want her to ruin herself in front of everyone that matters.
01:22:11Get the car.
01:22:13I'm going to visit Miss Victoria.
01:22:16Let's see how fragile she really is.
01:22:21Julian?
01:22:23You finally came.
01:22:25I thought you'd forgotten all about me.
01:22:27Don't mention her.
01:22:28Victoria.
01:22:30I figured things out.
01:22:32Daisy really let me down.
01:22:34The whole thing with Silas blew up.
01:22:36Turns out she was just unlike him.
01:22:37I'm done with her.
01:22:38She already signed the divorce paper.
01:22:39What?
01:22:39I knew it.
01:22:40There was always something off about her.
01:22:43No way she got close to you with good intentions.
01:22:45You've been by my side all these years.
01:22:47And I never really appreciated that.
01:22:49Victoria, you're the one who truly belongs with the Sterling family.
01:22:54Tomorrow night, at the company retreat closing ceremony, I've got something big planned.
01:22:57A proposal.
01:22:57In front of everyone.
01:22:58The whole company.
01:22:59The press.
01:23:00I want to make it right.
01:23:00You'll be there, won't you?
01:23:02You're serious?
01:23:03Completely.
01:23:06Get some rest, my future fiancé.
01:23:11I'll see you tomorrow.
01:23:23Ha!
01:23:24Daisy Miller, you finally lost.
01:23:27Juliet is mine, and that Sterling name?
01:23:30Mine too.
01:23:32Lucy?
01:23:32I need that Dior Costor piece, the one worth a million, sent over ASAP.
01:23:36Tomorrow night, I'm going to be the most dazzling woman in all of New York.
01:23:41Enjoy it while you can, Victoria.
01:23:43Tomorrow's when your nightmare begins.
01:23:45Wait, why is Victoria here?
01:23:47Didn't she get fired?
01:23:47Yeah, for a pretty bad screw-up too.
01:23:49And she still shows up dressed like that?
01:23:50Wow.
01:23:51Go ahead, stare.
01:23:52Jealous already?
01:23:53Cute.
01:23:53Just wait till Julian proposes, then we'll see who's looking up to who.
01:24:08Are you kidding me?
01:24:09She looks insane in a good way?
01:24:12No, no, seriously.
01:24:13She owns this night.
01:24:15That's unreal.
01:24:16I've never heard anything like that lie.
01:24:28Daisy Miller?
01:24:29What the hell is she doing here?
01:24:32Simus was supposed to...
01:24:40She's incredible, isn't she?
01:24:54Thanks for coming out tonight for Sterling Group's annual retreat.
01:25:00There's someone I want you all to meet.
01:25:03My wife, Daisy Sterling.
01:25:08I knew it!
01:25:10I swear, I knew it this whole time!
01:25:11Daisy is the Mrs. Sterling!
01:25:13Truth is, we were already married before she ever joined the company.
01:25:21It started as a contract.
01:25:23That's all it was supposed to be.
01:25:25Didn't really go according to plan.
01:25:28Somewhere along the way, I fell for her.
01:25:31Hard.
01:25:32She's strong, she's talented, and she's just a genuinely good person.
01:25:37Didn't stand a chance.
01:25:38I screwed up once.
01:25:39I let her go.
01:25:40That's not happening again.
01:25:42So let me make this clear.
01:25:46Daisy is my wife.
01:25:48The only one.
01:26:02No.
01:26:03No, this can't be happening.
01:26:06Julian, you said, you told me.
01:26:19Julian, why are you doing this to me?
01:26:22She's not worth it.
01:26:23You shouldn't love her.
01:26:25You can't love her.
01:26:27Victoria, I gave you more chances than you deserved.
01:26:30For your family's sake, for old times' sake, I was willing to just send you out of New York.
01:26:34Let you disappear quietly.
01:26:35But you crossed the line.
01:26:37You hired someone to kidnap Daisy and tried to destroy her.
01:26:39Ruin her.
01:26:40No, I didn't.
01:26:41That's a lie.
01:26:41They set me up.
01:26:42She set me up.
01:26:43Daisy did this.
01:26:43Set you up?
01:26:44Marcus, show her.
01:26:46Show everyone what she did.
01:26:48Victoria Vance paid me a hundred grand.
01:26:51Told me to drug Daisy and take photos of her.
01:26:54Ugly ones.
01:26:55Said she wanted Julian to turn on her.
01:26:57Ruin her reputation for good.
01:27:02Victoria Vance, you're under arrest for conspiracy to commit assault, kidnapping, and malicious framing.
01:27:07You'll need to come with us.
01:27:08No, let me go.
01:27:09I'm a Vance.
01:27:10Do you know who I am?
01:27:11Julian, please help me.
01:27:13You can't let them take me.
01:27:14I love you.
01:27:18It's over, Daisy.
01:27:19It's all over.
01:27:20No one's ever going to hurt you again.
01:27:22I promise.
01:27:25Tonight wasn't just about taking out the trash.
01:27:28I've also got a business decision to announce.
01:27:30As of right now, Sterling Group is cutting all financial ties with the Vance family.
01:27:33No more partnerships.
01:27:34No more deals.
01:27:35In Manhattan, they're done.
01:27:36Permanently blacklisted.
01:27:37And to celebrate finding my wife, I'm going to thank all of you for your hard work.
01:27:39You come just getting two days off.
01:27:40Fully paid.
01:27:41And this whole resort?
01:27:41That's on me.
01:27:42Let's go!
01:27:43That's fun!
01:27:44Last ever, Mrs. Sterling!
01:27:46Julian, this doesn't even feel real.
