Transcript
00:00:06Please, God.
00:00:09Let me catch something to feed the family tonight.
00:00:16Come on.
00:00:17Come on.
00:00:19Come on.
00:00:20Come on.
00:00:20Come on.
00:00:25What the heck?
00:00:27Is that ghoul?
00:00:34What does it say?
00:00:37What does it say?
00:01:00Who?
00:01:02No.
00:01:04What are you?
00:01:05I am known by many names across cities, times, and culture.
00:01:09But you probably know me as a genie.
00:01:12I shall grant you three wishes.
00:01:16No, you cannot wish for eternity, and no, you cannot wish for more wishes.
00:01:21Now tell me, mere mortal.
00:01:22What do you wish for?
00:01:26I wish...
00:01:28I wish...
00:01:29I wish...
00:01:31I wish...
00:01:32I wish...
00:01:32I wish...
00:01:32I wish...
00:01:32I wish we had more time.
00:01:33Don't worry, Grandpa.
00:01:36The best doctors in the world are on their way.
00:01:38You're back on your feet.
00:01:39You better put it.
00:01:40Oh, silly girl.
00:01:42Death is not what scares me.
00:01:45What I'm worried about is who will take care of you after I'm gone.
00:01:50You're not going anywhere.
00:01:52We don't have to worry about that yet.
00:01:54No, but it's alright.
00:01:55I finally found a good husband for...
00:01:59Someone I trust.
00:02:01Yes.
00:02:02Grandpa, I don't need a husband.
00:02:04What I need is for you to live.
00:02:08Oh, darling.
00:02:12You go rest, okay?
00:02:14Grandpa still has some work to do, okay?
00:02:18Okay.
00:02:25Put it down right here.
00:02:28And leave.
00:02:29And don't come back until I call you.
00:02:31Yes, Mr. Player.
00:02:51Everything...
00:02:52I will.
00:02:54Thanks to you.
00:02:56I wish...
00:02:59I wish to become rich.
00:03:03Rich enough that I'll never have to worry about money ever again.
00:03:06Your wish is my command.
00:03:38Stephen.
00:03:39You were still young and spry last we spoke.
00:03:43Now you have succumbed to time.
00:03:45Have you summoned me to make your last wish?
00:03:47I wish.
00:03:50Speak.
00:03:51And our contract will be over.
00:03:54It's been nice knowing you, Stephen Parrish.
00:03:57My third wish is your freedom.
00:04:01No lamp.
00:04:02No chain.
00:04:04No master.
00:04:06You're using your final wish on me.
00:04:08A final request.
00:04:10Speak.
00:04:12I want you to bury my granddaughter, Christine Parrish.
00:04:21Take care of her once I have died for five years.
00:04:28Then you will be free.
00:04:37Your wish is my command.
00:04:39I shall marry your granddaughter, conceal my identity, and protect her.
00:04:45And in five years, I too shall finally have my freedom.
00:04:56According to Mr. Parrish's will, his entire estate and full control of Parrish Enterprises
00:05:03shall be inherited by his granddaughter, Christine Parrish.
00:05:07Under one condition, Christine must marry Elijah Barron.
00:05:12And then, will she be granted these rights?
00:05:16Who's Elijah Barron?
00:05:33Miss Parrish, I'm Elijah Barron.
00:05:37Your future husband.
00:05:40This is ridiculous.
00:05:43Why would grandpa force me to marry a stranger?
00:05:47I refuse.
00:05:49I'm sorry, Ms. Parrish.
00:05:51But if you don't marry Elijah Barron, your grandfather's inheritance will go to the shareholders.
00:05:58Christine.
00:06:00You can't let your grandfather's estate go to those greedy shareholders.
00:06:05I am sure your grandfather vetted him.
00:06:11Besides, he's easy on the ice.
00:06:24Fine. I'll marry him.
00:06:31I promise, from now on, I'll take care of you.
00:06:38Let's get one thing straight.
00:06:40I don't need you to take care of me.
00:06:42I can do that on my own.
00:06:45And just cause we're married doesn't mean that you get to act like my husband.
00:06:47You're not touching me, and you're definitely not sleeping in my bed.
00:06:55Sounds fun.
00:07:04For five years, I've kept my identity hidden.
00:07:08Looking after her, building her career from the shadows.
00:07:11All so Christine could one day stand on her own.
00:07:32How many times do I have to tell you not to touch my things?
00:07:36I'm just doing my job. You hired me as your assistant, and as your husband.
00:07:40Shh. I don't want anyone at work to know you're my husband.
00:07:44Look, I'm already stressed out enough. I have to land this Hiller deal.
00:07:48If you want to help, you can start by getting out.
00:07:52Now!
00:07:56Five years with this woman.
00:07:58It's like her heart is made of ice.
00:08:02Good thing my contract is ending soon.
00:08:07Yes, Senator Johnson. Yes. I'm confident I can land the Hiller deal.
00:08:11The Hiller deal?
00:08:15As in Adrian Hiller?
00:08:20Still has late stage lung cancer.
00:08:22We're doing everything we can, but prepare for the worst.
00:08:25Then what the hell are you even good for?
00:08:28Get the hell out! All of you!
00:08:29No!
00:08:36Who the fuck are you?
00:08:37You're not supposed to be in here.
00:08:39Who I am is not what's important.
00:08:41What's important is I can save your father.
00:08:44You? Save my father? You're not even a doctor!
00:08:46You lunatic!
00:08:48Peter, since the doctors already said there's nothing more they can do,
00:08:52maybe we should let him try.
00:08:53Absolutely not, Ruby.
00:08:54Peter, we're running out of options.
00:08:57We have to at least try something.
00:08:59Please.
00:09:01Save our father.
00:09:02I have to do this by myself.
00:09:04No!
00:09:07Fine.
00:09:09But if you do anything funny, I'll kill you.
00:09:25Wake up, old friend.
00:09:31It's you, the great Jind.
00:09:33I haven't seen you since your marriage, five years ago.
00:09:38I wanted to thank you for looking after the organization while I was away.
00:09:43The Illuminaries only exist because of you.
00:09:49They can change countless lives.
00:09:52But my beauty is of all three of my wishes.
00:09:56I am afraid to see into the line for me.
00:10:02I can break my rules once.
00:10:05Consider it a temporary extension.
00:10:07A few more years.
00:10:09You would do that for me?
00:10:10Under one condition.
00:10:12The Hiller Group is to give Christine Parrish, my wife, the contract.
00:10:17That's no problem at all.
00:10:19Good.
00:10:52Remember your promise.
00:10:57He's healed.
00:11:00Ruby!
00:11:01Ruby!
00:11:04He did it.
00:11:06He did it.
00:11:08He missed.
00:11:19Hey, girl.
00:11:26What the hell?
00:11:29Mr. Baron, here is your custom ordered necklace.
00:11:33Your wife is a very lucky woman.
00:11:37I hope she likes it.
00:11:39Look after her for five years.
00:11:42After five years, you will be free.
00:11:46In four days, it'll be Christine's birthday.
00:11:49And the day my mission ends.
00:11:50Christine, when you realize I'm no longer beside you,
00:11:53will you even miss me?
00:11:54Even a little?
00:11:56Happy early birthday, bestie!
00:11:59I can't believe you're turning 30 soon.
00:12:01Why are we celebrating early again?
00:12:03Because Christine's mom has the same birthday as her,
00:12:06and she's going to throw her mom a huge birthday party.
00:12:09I just don't want to steal her thunder.
00:12:10She's turning 50 this year.
00:12:12It's a big year for her.
00:12:26Christine?
00:12:28I remember college like it was yesterday.
00:12:30You were cheer captain and dating Tony, the star quarterback.
00:12:35Now look at us.
00:12:36Married, with jobs.
00:12:38Boring.
00:12:40Ugh.
00:12:40Yeah.
00:12:41Honestly, if Tony hadn't dumped you for the NFL,
00:12:44you wouldn't have settled for that loser, Elijah.
00:12:47Oh, come on.
00:12:48That was ages ago.
00:12:49Please.
00:12:49We all know you're still not over him.
00:12:52Hey.
00:12:54If he asked to take you back,
00:12:55what would you say?
00:12:57Well, I'm married now.
00:12:59Besides, that was like a decade ago.
00:13:05Hey.
00:13:07I didn't know you were having a party.
00:13:10I got you a gift.
00:13:13Happy birthday.
00:13:16Seriously?
00:13:17This little thing is all you got her for her 30th birthday?
00:13:21Ugh.
00:13:21Looks like it grabbed it out of a Target.
00:13:23Ah!
00:13:23What the?
00:13:27Thanks.
00:13:28What is it?
00:13:29Open it.
00:13:30You'll find out.
00:13:34Hey!
00:13:35Oh, Tony!
00:13:38Woo!
00:13:43Huh?
00:13:48Tony?
00:13:49Surprise!
00:13:51We invited him just for you, honeymoon, boo!
00:13:56Hey, sexy.
00:13:58Happy birthday.
00:13:59Come here.
00:14:07Is that Tony Roth?
00:14:08Didn't he just win the Super Bowl like two years ago?
00:14:11He did.
00:14:12Oh, my.
00:14:13He's hotter in person.
00:14:14I didn't know Christina's friends with him.
00:14:17Oh, not just friends.
00:14:19They used to date.
00:14:22I got you a gift.
00:14:27Oh, my God.
00:14:28That's so gorgeous.
00:14:29Put it on her.
00:14:34Come on.
00:14:34Let me put it on for you.
00:14:38All right.
00:14:39All right.
00:14:50Stacey also told me that you were having issues with the Heller Group contract.
00:14:54I can help you with that.
00:14:57And thank you, Tony, but I think I can handle it.
00:15:01Of course, babe.
00:15:02You know, I just want to help since your husband's obviously pretty useless.
00:15:05Aw, look.
00:15:07They're kind of cute together.
00:15:09Even though Christina's married to that Randall.
00:15:12See?
00:15:12That's the kind of gift a man should be getting his wife.
00:15:20Oops.
00:15:21That was an accident.
00:15:23Sorry.
00:15:28I took care of you.
00:15:29And loved you for five years, Christine.
00:15:33But you won't even give me the most basic respect.
00:15:39You must be the assistant slash husband.
00:15:43I'm Tony Roth.
00:15:47We'll have to.
00:15:51Elijah.
00:15:54That was rude.
00:15:59Four more days until the contract ends.
00:16:02I'll be out of her life for good.
00:16:04Just like she's always wanted.
00:16:11Christine, our company's stock is tanking.
00:16:14We need the Heller contract.
00:16:17I know, Mom.
00:16:18Come.
00:16:19Figure something out.
00:16:21Your ex, Tony, is golfing buddies of Peter Heller.
00:16:25Maybe you can get a meeting with him.
00:16:27He could help us land the contract.
00:16:29Mom, the Heller Corp is the biggest company in the nation.
00:16:32Just because I get an introduction doesn't mean we're going to land it.
00:16:38Fine.
00:16:38I'll ask him.
00:16:42You don't need to ask, Tony.
00:16:46I took care of it.
00:16:47The Heller's are going to give you the contract, and they're going to invest in your company, too.
00:16:51You already took care of it, Elijah.
00:16:53How did you possibly already take care of it?
00:16:55Please don't be ridiculous.
00:16:57Exactly.
00:16:57What do you know about business?
00:16:59Your glorified help.
00:17:01I was just stating the facts.
00:17:02No, Elijah.
00:17:04You just don't get it.
00:17:06Just...
00:17:06Besides, Tony's going to be here in a little bit.
00:17:09Please don't make a fool out of yourself.
00:17:11You were incredibly rude last time.
00:17:13Because he put his hands all over my wife.
00:17:15So you're jealous, and now you're lying.
00:17:19I just cannot deal with this right now.
00:17:23Come on, drive me to the salon.
00:17:26I have to get a perm for my big day.
00:17:28Don't you dare make me late.
00:17:47What are you standing there for?
00:17:50Hurry up and drive me to the salon.
00:17:52I have to get a perm.
00:17:56I have to get a perm.
00:18:09I've spent half a decade taking care of those blue roses.
00:18:13It's finally bloomed.
00:18:15I'm about to leave, but...
00:18:17I wish you'll always have fresh flowers.
00:18:27Your favorite dish.
00:18:29This might be the last time I ever make it for you.
00:18:35Only three days left to the five-year mark.
00:18:38I hope she'll adjust to life without me, all right?
00:19:00Don't worry, I'll contact the Hillers later about giving you the contract.
00:19:03Thank you, Tony.
00:19:04I really appreciate it.
00:19:06Don't need to think.
00:19:11Hey, listen, I'll have to chase my football dreams, but I never forgot about you.
00:19:16Not for a second.
00:19:17Listen, now that I'm finally retiring, stay by your side.
00:19:24I, um, thank you for saying that.
00:19:29I'm...
00:19:30I'm already married.
00:19:35Okay, so...
00:19:37What, you're going to waste the best years of your life on a worthless coward again?
00:19:46He's...
00:19:47actually really good to me.
00:19:50Come on, Christine, you're way too nice.
00:19:52Even if you treat too well, you shouldn't sacrifice your own happiness for him.
00:20:00Divorce him.
00:20:02Be free.
00:20:12This is me.
00:20:15That's for the Hiller thing.
00:20:17Thanks again.
00:20:18You're welcome.
00:20:37One day.
00:20:40Dinner's gone cold, but go take a bath and I'll reheat it for you.
00:20:45That's okay.
00:20:46I already eat.
00:20:57Elijah, please stop getting these hideous artificial flowers.
00:21:02Hideous and artificial?
00:21:05I planted these for her by hand.
00:21:07Got it.
00:21:08You should go wash up.
00:21:10Okay.
00:21:23Die.
00:21:29Die.
00:21:31Die.
00:21:37Die.
00:21:51My wife of five years just called out another man's name while she came.
00:22:06Elisha, what are you doing?
00:22:22She still hasn't acknowledged the gift I got her.
00:22:25She probably never will.
00:22:38Oh.
00:22:40Oh.
00:22:42Oh.
00:22:43Oh.
00:22:45Oh.

00:35:48No, but it's alright.
00:35:50I finally found a good husband.
00:35:53Someone I trust.
00:35:56Yes.
00:35:56Grandpa, I don't need a husband.
00:35:59What I need is for you to live.
00:36:03Oh, darling.
00:36:07You go rest, okay?
00:36:09Grandpa still has some work to do.
00:36:11Okay?
00:36:19Put it down right here.
00:36:22And leave.
00:36:23And don't come back until I call you.
00:36:26Yes, Mr. Perry.
00:36:45Everything I've built is thanks to you.
00:36:51I wish...
00:36:54I wish to become rich.
00:36:57Rich enough that I'll never have to worry about money ever again.
00:37:01Your wish is my command.
00:37:02I wish to be a man.
00:37:05No.
00:37:09No.
00:37:15No.
00:37:19No.
00:37:20No.
00:37:23No.
00:37:24No.
00:37:26No.
00:37:33Steven, you were still young and spry last we spoke.
00:37:37Now you have succumbed to time.
00:37:40Have you summoned me to make your last wish?
00:37:44Speak, and our contract will be over.
00:37:48It's been nice knowing you, Steven Parrish.
00:37:52My third wish is your freedom.
00:37:55No lamp, no chain, no master.
00:38:00You're using your final wish on me.
00:38:03A final request.
00:38:05Speak.
00:38:07I want you to marry my granddaughter, Christine Parrish.
00:38:16Take care of her once I have died for five years.
00:38:22Then you will be free.
00:38:31Your wish is my command.
00:38:34I shall marry your granddaughter, conceal my identity, and protect her.
00:38:40And in five years, I too shall finally have my freedom.
00:38:51According to Mr. Parrish's will, his entire estate and full control of Parrish Enterprises
00:38:58shall be inherited by his granddaughter, Christine Parrish.
00:39:01Under one condition, Christine must marry Elijah Barron.
00:39:07Who are you then?
00:39:08Will she be granted these rights?
00:39:10Who's Elijah Barron?
00:39:27Miss Parrish, I'm Elijah Barron, your future husband.
00:39:35This is ridiculous.
00:39:37Why would Grandpa force me to marry a stranger?
00:39:42I refuse.
00:39:44I'm sorry, Ms. Parrish, but if you don't marry Elijah Barron, your grandfather's inheritance
00:39:49will go to the shareholders.
00:39:52Christine, Christine, you can't let your grandfather's estate go to those greedy shareholders.
00:40:00I am sure your grandfather vetted him.
00:40:06Besides, he's easy on the ice.
00:40:18Fine.
00:40:20I'll marry him.
00:40:25I promise from now on, I'll take care of you.
00:40:32Let's get one thing straight.
00:40:34I don't need you to take care of me.
00:40:37I can do that on my own.
00:40:39And just because we're married doesn't mean that you can act like my husband.
00:40:42You're not touching me.
00:40:44And you're definitely not something you like at me.
00:40:50Sounds fun.
00:40:59For five years, I've kept my identity hidden.
00:41:02Looking after her, building her career from the shadows.
00:41:06All so Christine could one day stand on her own.
00:41:27How many times do I have to tell you not to touch my things?
00:41:30I'm just doing my job.
00:41:32You hired me as your assistant.
00:41:34And as your husband.
00:41:34Shh.
00:41:36I don't want anyone at work to know you're my husband.
00:41:39Look, I'm already stressed out enough.
00:41:41I have to land this Hiller deal.
00:41:43If you want to help, you can start by getting out.
00:41:46Now!
00:41:51Five years with this woman.
00:41:53It's like her heart is made of ice.
00:41:57Good thing my contract is ending soon.
00:42:01Yes, Senator Johnson.
00:42:03Yes.
00:42:04I'm confident I can land the Hiller deal.
00:42:06The Hiller deal?
00:42:10As in, Adrian Miller?
00:42:14Still has late-stage lung cancer.
00:42:17We're doing everything we can, but prepare for the worst.
00:42:20Then what the hell are you even good for?
00:42:22Get the hell out!
00:42:23All of you!
00:42:30Who the fuck are you?
00:42:32You're not supposed to be in here.
00:42:33Who I am is not what's important.
00:42:36What's important is I can save your father.
00:42:38You?
00:42:39Save my father?
00:42:40You're not even a doctor, you lunatic.
00:42:42Oh, Peter.
00:42:43Since the doctor's already said there's nothing more they can do, maybe we should let him try.
00:42:48Absolutely not, Ruby.
00:42:49Yes.
00:42:49Peter, we're running out of options.
00:42:51We have to at least try something.
00:42:54Please.
00:42:55Save our father.
00:42:57I have to do this by myself.
00:42:58No!
00:43:01Fine.
00:43:03But if you do anything funny, I'll kill you.
00:43:20Wake up, old friend.
00:43:25It's you, the great Jind.
00:43:28I haven't seen you since your marriage.
00:43:32Five years now.
00:43:33I wanted to thank you for looking after the organization while I was away.
00:43:37The Illuminaries only exist because of you.
00:43:43They can change countless lives.
00:43:46But my beauty is of all three of my wishes.
00:43:51I'm afraid it's the end of the line for me.
00:43:56I can break my rules once.
00:43:59Consider it a temporary extension.
00:44:02A few more years.
00:44:03You would do that for me?
00:44:05Under one condition.
00:44:07The Hiller Group is to give Christine Parrish, my wife, the contract.
00:44:11That's no problem at all.
00:44:14Good.
00:44:47Remember your promise.
00:44:52He's healed.
00:44:55Ruby!
00:44:56Ruby!
00:44:59He did it.
00:45:01He did it.
00:45:02He did it.
00:45:15There you go.
00:45:21What the hell?
00:45:24Mr. Baron, here is your custom ordered necklace.
00:45:28Your wife is a very lucky woman.
00:45:32I hope she likes it.
00:45:34Look after her for five years.
00:45:37After five years, you will be free.
00:45:41In four days, it'll be Christine's birthday.
00:45:43And the day my mission ends.
00:45:45Christine, when you realize I'm no longer beside you, will you even miss me?
00:45:49Even a little?
00:45:51Happy early birthday, bestie!
00:45:53Can't believe you're turning 30 soon.
00:45:56Why are we celebrating early again?
00:45:57Because Christine's mom has the same birthday as her, and she's going to throw her mom a huge birthday party.
00:46:03I just don't want to steal her thunder.
00:46:05She's turning 50 this year.
00:46:07It's a big year for her.
00:46:21Christine?
00:46:22I remember college like it was yesterday.
00:46:25You were cheer captain and dating Tony, the star quarterback.
00:46:29Now look at us.
00:46:31Married, with jobs.
00:46:33Boring.
00:46:34Ugh, yeah.
00:46:35Honestly, if Tony hadn't dumped you for the NFL, you wouldn't have settled for that loser, Elijah.
00:46:41Oh, come on.
00:46:42That was ages ago.
00:46:43Please, we all know you're still not over him.
00:46:47Hey, if he asked to take you back, what would you say?
00:46:52Well, I'm married now.
00:46:54Besides, that was like a decade ago.
00:46:59Hey.
00:47:02I didn't know you were having a party.
00:47:04I got you a gift.
00:47:07Happy birthday.
00:47:10Seriously?
00:47:11This little thing is all you got her for her 30th birthday?
00:47:15Ugh, looks like it grabbed it out of a Target.
00:47:17Oh, what the?
00:47:21Thanks.
00:47:22What is it?
00:47:23Open it.
00:47:24You'll find out.
00:47:42Tony?
00:47:44Surprise!
00:47:45We invited him just for you, honey, Mabu!
00:47:51Hey, sexy.
00:47:52Happy birthday.
00:47:54Come here.
00:48:01Is that Tony Roth?
00:48:03Didn't he just win the Super Bowl like two years ago?
00:48:05He did.
00:48:06Oh my, he's hotter in person.
00:48:09I didn't know Christina's friends with him.
00:48:12Oh, not just friends.
00:48:13They used to date.
00:48:16I got you a gift.
00:48:21Oh my god, that's so gorgeous.
00:48:24Put it on her.
00:48:28Come on, let me put it on for you.
00:48:32All right.
00:48:44Stacy Wilson told me that you were having issues with the Helen Group contract.
00:48:49I can help you with that.
00:48:52Thank you, Tony, but I think I can handle it.
00:48:55Of course, babe.
00:48:56You know, I just want to help, since your husband's obviously pretty useless.
00:49:00Aw, look, they're kind of cute together, even though Christina's married to that Randall.
00:49:06See, that's the kind of gift a man should be getting his wife.
00:49:14Oops.
00:49:16That was an accident.
00:49:18Sorry.
00:49:23I took care of you and loved you for five years, Christine.
00:49:28But you won't even give me the most basic respect.
00:49:33You must be the assistant slash husband.
00:49:38I'm Tony Roth.
00:49:41Left hand.
00:49:46Elijah.
00:49:48That was rude.
00:49:54Four more days until the contract ends.
00:49:56I'll be out of her life for good.
00:49:58Just like she's always wanted.
00:50:05Christine, our company's stock is tanking.
00:50:09We need the Hiller contract.
00:50:11I know, Mom.
00:50:13Figure something out.
00:50:16Your ex, Tony, is golfing buddies with Peter Hiller.
00:50:19Maybe you can get a meeting with him.
00:50:21He could help us land the contract.
00:50:23Mom, the Hiller Corp is the biggest company in the nation.
00:50:26Just because I get an introduction doesn't mean we're going to land it.
00:50:32Fine, I'll ask him.
00:50:37You need to ask, Tony.
00:50:41I took care of it.
00:50:42The Hillers are going to give you the contract and they're going to invest in your company too.
00:50:45You already took care of it, Elijah.
00:50:48How did you possibly already take care of it?
00:50:50Please don't be ridiculous.
00:50:51Exactly.
00:50:52What do you know about business?
00:50:53Your glorified help.
00:50:55I was just stating the facts.
00:50:57No, Elijah.
00:50:58You just don't get it.
00:51:00Just, besides, Tony's going to be here in a little bit.
00:51:04Please don't make a fool out of yourself.
00:51:05You were incredibly worried last time.
00:51:07Because he put his hands all over my wife.
00:51:10So you're jealous and now you're lying.
00:51:13I just cannot deal with this right now.
00:51:18Come on, drive me to the salon.
00:51:20I have to get a perm for my big day.
00:51:22Hey, don't you dare make me late.
00:51:41What's happening to me?
00:51:42What are you standing there for?
00:51:44Hurry up and drive me to the salon.
00:52:04I spent half a decade taking care of those blue roses.
00:52:08It's finally bloomed.
00:52:10I'm about to leave, but I wish you'll always have fresh flowers.
00:52:21Your favorite dish.
00:52:23This might be the last time I ever make it for you.
00:52:29I'm about to leave.
00:52:30Only three days left to the five-year mark.
00:52:32I hope she'll adjust to life without me, all right?
00:52:54Don't worry, I'll contact the Hillers later about giving you the contract.
00:52:57Thank you, Tony.
00:52:58I really appreciate it.
00:53:00Don't need a thank.
00:53:05Hey, listen.
00:53:06I'll have to chase my football dreams, but I never forgot about you.
00:53:10Not for a second.
00:53:11Listen, now that I'm finally retiring, stay by your side.
00:53:19I thank you for saying that.
00:53:24I'm already married.
00:53:29Okay, so what, you're going to waste the best years of your life on a worthless coward again?
00:53:41He's actually really good to me.
00:53:44Come on, Christine.
00:53:45You're way too nice.
00:53:47Even if he treats you well, you shouldn't sacrifice your own happiness for him.
00:53:55Divorce him.
00:53:56Be free.
00:54:06This is me.
00:54:09That's for the Heller thing.
00:54:11Thanks again.
00:54:12You're welcome.
00:54:32One day.
00:54:35Dinner's gone cold, but go take a bath and I'll reheat it for you.
00:54:39That's okay.
00:54:40I already.
00:54:52Elijah, please stop getting these hideous artificial flowers.
00:54:56Hideous and artificial?
00:54:59I planted these for her by hand.
00:55:01Got it.
00:55:03Got it.
00:55:03You should go wash up.
00:55:18Die.
00:55:24Die.
00:55:25Die.
00:55:32Die.
00:55:46My wife of five years just called out another man's name while she came.
00:56:16She still hasn't acknowledged the gift I got her.
00:56:20She probably never will.
00:56:23By the woman's name.
00:56:30He still wears it.
00:56:32She missed the gift.
00:56:33Ha!
00:56:33Oh!
00:56:56Is that all you're gonna say to me?
00:57:00You clearly saw what just happened in there.
00:57:03Aren't you gonna say anything?
00:57:07No matter how much I ignore you or reject you, you just won't leave.
00:57:12Why?
00:57:13It's been five years, don't you get it by now?
00:57:16I should be able to choose who I love, so no matter what you do, I'm never ever gonna love
00:57:21you!
00:57:23I don't need your love, Christine.
00:57:26I made a promise to your grandfather, and I intend to keep it.
00:57:29Yeah, you keep saying that, but you wanna know what I think?
00:57:33I think you're just trying to leech off my family, so you don't have to work.
00:57:39You pretend to love me, but in reality, you're just in it for the money.
00:57:45That's why when I call out another guy's name, you don't even react!
00:57:49Christine, if you have taken even a second to look at everything I've done for you the past five years,
00:57:54you'd know that's not true.
00:57:55I know you want me gone. Give it a few days, maybe your wish will come true.
00:58:04Hey Peter, it's me, Tony. I heard Hillercorp is looking for a company to partner with.
00:58:09We already decided on a partner, so don't call me about this again.
00:58:13You've found someone already?
00:58:15Yeah.
00:58:15Someone who has done the family an enormous favor, so drop it.
00:58:19Wait, wait!
00:58:21As he is ordered, this contract must go directly to Christine. Failure is not an option.
00:58:29I'll get it done.
00:58:39Mr. Heller, this is so unexpected. What can I do for you?
00:58:43I know your company has been bidding for our project. I'm here to discuss it with you.
00:58:47Yes, it's not finished yet, but I have a proposal.
00:58:52No need. I'm just here to hand you the contract.
00:58:56Really? You don't want to take a look at the proposal first?
00:58:59Nope. We're also going to add another round of investments.
00:59:02I'm excited to see Paris sort of next level.
00:59:04Really?
00:59:07Thank you so much, Mr. Heller. I don't know what to say.
00:59:10Don't thank me. I think the great man who's been backing you.
00:59:14The great man backing me?
00:59:16Don't worry, I'll contact the others later about giving you the contract.
00:59:20It must be Tony. How he really came through for me.
00:59:28Tony!
00:59:29Hey, babe.
00:59:30Thank you so much for your help. We got the Heller contract.
00:59:33What? I couldn't even bring it up with Peter, but Christine still managed to get the contract?
00:59:38Well, whatever. I guess it worked out.
00:59:41Yeah, of course, babe.
00:59:44You mean so much to me, and Peter's my butt. How can I not help?
00:59:47Where are you right now? I'd like to thank you in person.
00:59:51All right, I'll be right over.
01:00:02Elijah? Can you take me to Maple Hotel? I have a work thing.
01:00:07Okay.
01:00:19No need to wait for me. I'm just going to be discussing work with Tony.
01:00:44Christine. Come in.
01:00:56Peter personally came by the office and handed me the contract.
01:00:59Just want to say thank you. I don't think it would have been so smooth if it wasn't for you,
01:01:03Tony.
01:01:03I told you I'd do anything for you. It's not bad.
01:01:18Oh my god, I'm so sorry.
01:01:20Oh my gosh.
01:01:21I'm so sorry.
01:01:24It's okay. It's okay.
01:01:53Your wife's got a killer pod. I'm going to save her every inch of it.
01:02:15You still like seeing you only on a rope. You still remember our island vacation? Just the two of us
01:02:20on the beach?
01:02:20That was, um, a beautiful memory. But for that.
01:02:28Christine, you must be exhausted. The run-up parish enterprise is all on your own.
01:02:33Do you still need to suffer like this?
01:02:35Yes.
01:02:36My grandpa left me this company. So no matter how hard it gets, I'm not going to give up.
01:02:41My help isn't limited to the other contract. If you want to start over with me, I can help you
01:02:46shoulders so much more.
01:02:49Tony, now's not the time for that.
01:02:51Didn't you say you were grateful to me?
01:02:55Why can't we just start over?
01:02:57Because I'm already married.
01:02:59To Elijah, that spineless goof who's only good for cooking your meals and obeying your every order.
01:03:09Christine, you're not fooling anyone.
01:03:15I'm gonna show you what a real man's like.
01:03:18Tony, no. Don't.
01:03:20Wait! Get off of me!
01:03:22Tony! Don't!
01:03:24Wait, Tony!
01:03:27Wait, Tony!
01:03:30Get your hands off my wife!
01:03:35Who the fuck do you think you are?
01:03:37I'm just a man protecting his wife.
01:03:45Elijah!
01:03:47Elijah!
01:03:48You're killing him!
01:03:49Elijah, let go!
01:03:50I said let him go!
01:03:55Apologize to Tony!
01:03:57He was just assaulting you. You want me to apologize?
01:04:00Nothing happened. You almost killed him. You overreacted.
01:04:03Nothing happened?
01:04:05Clearly he was going to do something to you.
01:04:07Oh my god, you're paranoid. I don't need your reckless protection.
01:04:12I am your husband.
01:04:14It is my job to protect you.
01:04:16As my wife, you shouldn't put yourself in situations like this.
01:04:21I was forced to marry you. Remember?
01:04:25I never wanted you as my husband.
01:04:30Five years and she still doesn't love you.
01:04:33She never will.
01:04:37So do you love him?
01:04:55I'm sorry if I rushed you, but not you.
01:04:57I think we need a cooler moment.
01:05:04I'm sorry if I rushed you, but not you.
01:05:10Look, I'm sorry. I hate you, okay?
01:05:13I lost my cool.
01:05:15But you shouldn't have barged in and attacked Tony either.
01:05:21Okay, the silent treatment.
01:05:24Everything I'm doing is for the company.
01:05:27And for this family.
01:05:28If I lose that Hiller contract because of you,
01:05:31I'll never be able to forgive you.
01:05:34Do you really believe in your heart of hearts
01:05:37that Tony was the one who got you the Hiller contract?
01:05:42Yes! Who else?
01:05:47You?
01:05:48Yes.
01:05:49Miss Christine, you got the Hiller contract because of me.
01:05:53Elijah, don't be ridiculous.
01:05:55You're basically a house husband.
01:05:58How on earth would you know the Hillers?
01:06:00It's bad enough that I shoulder everything at work.
01:06:04Please, don't go spreading lies too.
01:06:06Lies?
01:06:07Christine, I haven't told you one lie in the five years that we've been together.
01:06:11Not one.
01:06:12Okay, look.
01:06:13I know that you're jealous of Tony.
01:06:16But the fact is, he landed me that contract.
01:06:19He granted my wish.
01:06:20I would never have asked him to help me out if I really thought you could do it.
01:06:27I have been carrying Parish Enterprises since Grandpa died, all on my own.
01:06:31Please, tell me what you've done.
01:06:33In these five years,
01:06:35do you really believe that you would have gotten to where you are without me?
01:06:41I mean, besides scheduling my life and picking up after me...
01:06:49I could hire a maid to do your job.
01:06:57I think a maid could do my job.
01:07:00Yes.
01:07:02Elijah, I need a real man.
01:07:05One that I can rely on, not someone who just cooks and cleans and picks up after me.
01:07:10Everything that you do for me just makes me hate you more.
01:07:13All right.
01:07:26Let's get a divorce.
01:07:27All right.
01:07:31Let's get a divorce.
01:07:33Let's get a divorce.
01:07:33Well, let's get a divorce.
01:07:36Great divorce.
01:07:38I'm going for the divorce.
01:07:42Wait.
01:07:45Let's get a divorce.
01:07:47I got a divorce.
01:07:47You are so serious.
01:07:48You
