Short filmTranscript
00:00:07I woke up in a stranger's bed, but the stranger was my boss.
00:00:22Marry me.
00:00:24He wanted to buy me, like I was a company.
00:00:35The man I loved and the friend I trusted, they were both lying to me.
00:00:47So I signed, not for love, for revenge.
00:00:57Just a weak assistant.
00:01:03They thought I was broken.
00:01:05They had no idea.
00:01:06I was just getting started.
00:01:18I am Chaos, the designer everyone is hunting.
00:01:37I have to get out of here.
00:01:39Now.
00:01:50Good morning, Hallie.
00:01:53Mr. Gardner.
00:01:55I...
00:01:55This was a mistake.
00:01:57I need to leave.
00:01:58I need to leave.
00:02:02Wear these.
00:02:05What?
00:02:06Given the events of last night, and my position, we need to discuss the path forward.
00:02:17Marriage.
00:02:19Excuse me?
00:02:21Are you insane?
00:02:22A scandal involving the CEO and a junior assist to be detrimental to the stock price.
00:02:27A sudden marriage can be spun as a whirlwind romance.
00:02:31It solves the PR crisis.
00:02:34I am not marrying you for a stock price.
00:02:37It is a contract.
00:02:38A business arrangement.
00:02:40I have a boyfriend.
00:02:41Irving.
00:02:45A creative director.
00:02:47An obstacle, but hardly an insurmountable one.
00:02:51He didn't answer your calls last night.
00:02:53That doesn't mean anything.
00:02:54Get dressed, Hallie.
00:02:56The car is waiting downstairs.
00:03:13I'm leaving.
00:03:14We are going to pretend this never happened.
00:03:16We will never speak of this again.
00:03:21Hallie, running doesn't solve problems.
00:03:24It solves this one.
00:03:39Miss Andrews, Mr. Gardner instructed me to take you home.
00:03:46I can take the subway.
00:03:48The doorman is watching, Miss Andrews.
00:03:50And the paparazzi.
00:03:51It would be best to get in.
00:03:56Mr. Gardner rarely loses control.
00:03:58You must be unexpected.
00:04:04Mistakes usually don't involve archival Chanel.
00:04:15Stop the car.
00:04:17Mrs. Andrews, we are in the middle of traffic.
00:04:20Please, stop.
00:04:21There's a CVS right there.
00:04:22I need something.
00:04:34Ezra is a man who takes care of his assets.
00:04:53You lied.
00:04:56You lied.
00:05:05Mine.
00:05:12Oh my god, you look like a death.
00:05:14But listen, they found a woman's ripped dress in Ezra's penthouse to eat on a Saturday morning.
00:05:19Probably a model he took home from the gala.
00:05:21That's what everyone is saying.
00:05:23They're all trying to guess who.
00:05:27Andrews, this sketch, it's disruptive.
00:05:32I want you taking notes in the 2 p.m. concept meeting.
00:05:36Nothing, sir.
00:05:37I, I, yes, of course.
00:05:53Design department, Holly Andrews.
00:05:55Mrs. Andrews, Mr. Gardner would like to see you in his office, now.
00:06:02I'm in the middle of preparing for the-
00:06:04Now, Mrs. Andrews.
00:06:15Did you hear about the dress?
00:06:18Everyone's talking about it.
00:06:19Of course.
00:06:20But get this.
00:06:21Ezra Gardner was seen driving a woman out of the garage Saturday morning in the Maybach.
00:06:25Who was she?
00:06:26No idea.
00:06:27But the rumor is she was wearing runway Chanel.
00:06:32Whoever she is, she won't last.
00:06:35Ezra Gardner doesn't do relationships.
00:06:52Is the air conditioning and design malfunctioning?
00:06:55Uh, no, Mr. Gardner.
00:06:56It's quite comfortable.
00:06:58It must be freezing to warrant such heavy wool.
00:07:02I, I run cold.
00:07:04Really?
00:07:05That wasn't my impression.
00:07:08Stay.
00:07:15Your tag is sticking out.
00:07:17Hide it well, Hallie.
00:07:20I don't like sharing what's mine.
00:07:24Into my office.
00:07:25Now.
00:07:43You wanted to see me, Mr. Gardner?
00:07:51It says Hallie Andrews declined your request.
00:07:53Is this how you treat your fiancé?
00:07:58I'm not your fiancé.
00:08:02We are negotiating.
00:08:04And declining a friend request is a poor opening move, Hallie.
00:08:19The prenuptial agreement.
00:08:21Draft one.
00:08:27You can't be serious.
00:08:28The allowance?
00:08:29It's more than my annual salary.
00:08:32I am always serious about my investments.
00:08:35I am not an investment.
00:08:39I want my life back.
00:08:41I want to be invisible again.
00:08:43I notice assets others overlook, Hallie.
00:08:47For instance, your particular interest in Senator Grimes.
00:08:53How, how do you know about that?
00:08:56I told you.
00:08:57I verify my investments.
00:09:02You're chasing a ghost.
00:09:05You're chasing a ghost.
00:09:05A junior assistant will never get close enough to ask him your questions.
00:09:08Then you think you can help?
00:09:10I don't think.
00:09:12I know.
00:09:14Being Mrs. Ezra Gardner puts you at his table.
00:09:18It forces him to acknowledge you.
00:09:21Why?
00:09:22Why are you doing this for me?
00:09:25Because I always acquire what catches my eye.
00:09:31I need time.
00:09:33Take it.
00:09:35But while you think, check your phone.
00:09:41Accept my friend request.
00:09:49Good, now go back to work.
00:09:52What?
00:09:55And Hallie?
00:09:56Cancel your dinner plans.
00:09:58I have a date with Irvin.
00:10:02Not anymore.
00:10:11Whoa, you okay?
00:10:13You look green.
00:10:16Bad sushi.
00:10:17I just threw up everything.
00:10:19Are you sure it's not morning sickness?
00:10:24Definitely not.
00:10:26Just food poisoning.
00:10:32Hala, look!
00:10:33The all-company email!
00:10:37You're on the S-Country Fashion Week list.
00:10:39My name was at the bottom of the list.
00:10:41This was Ezra's doing.
00:10:42He was manipulating my entire career.
00:10:45I don't care if he's in a board meeting, Finley.
00:10:48He can't just do this to me.
00:10:52He left this for you, Ms. Andrews.
00:10:54This is your chance to prove you are not just a pretty face.
00:10:58Don't waste it.
00:11:04Babe, saw the list.
00:11:06We can turn this into a romantic vacation.
00:11:10A romantic vacation?
00:11:12Now you want to be seen with me?
00:11:15Feeling sick?
00:11:18Liar.
00:11:18Finley left something at the front desk for you.
00:11:21Mr. Butler said this was urgent.
00:11:22Inside the bag was a thermist of ginger soup.
00:11:26He knew.
00:11:27He knew.
00:11:28He knew I took the pill.
00:11:29He thinks he can control me with soup?
00:11:32Make me compliant?
00:11:38I drank just enough to settle my stomach.
00:11:40Then walked to the nearest trash can.
00:11:43Did you clear the security logs from the pharmacy?
00:11:45And the lobby footage?
00:11:47No record of her illness exists.
00:11:50Drive.
00:11:53To us, Hallie.
00:11:54And to your big break.
00:12:01You smell like Chanel No 5.
00:12:03That's Leah's signature scent.
00:12:05I must have walked through her perfume cloud at the office.
00:12:08Now about S country.
00:12:10I'm thinking of heading out a few days early.
00:12:13A few days early?
00:12:14Sounds busy.
00:12:16Excuse me for a moment.
00:12:30I hope Leah is okay.
00:12:31She just told me she's terribly sick.
00:12:35Oh?
00:12:36That's too bad.
00:12:45Actually, babe, I totally forgot.
00:12:48I have a conference call with the Tokyo team in 30 minutes.
00:12:51I have to cut this short.
00:12:52Of course.
00:12:53Work first.
00:12:57Just wait a second.
00:12:59Okay.
00:13:06Leah.
00:13:10Driver.
00:13:11Take me home.
00:13:22What the hell?
00:13:29What the hell?
00:13:43Going up?
00:13:44Are you following me?
00:13:46It's my building, Hallie.
00:13:48I'm everywhere.
00:13:54My phone.
00:13:55Where is it?
00:13:57No, no, no.
00:13:58It's shattered.
00:13:59The evidence.
00:14:00I had everything.
00:14:02Forget the phone.
00:14:03Are you injured?
00:14:04I'm fine.
00:14:05But I lost the proof.
00:14:08We're stuck.
00:14:10The emergency button is dead.
00:14:14Are you okay?
00:14:15Your knuckles are white.
00:14:17I'm fine.
00:14:19You're claustrophobic.
00:14:21Don't be ridiculous.
00:14:23You are.
00:14:24You're sweating.
00:14:26Talk to me.
00:14:28Just talk.
00:14:30About anything.
00:14:44I've got you.
00:14:45I'm fine.
00:14:46Get off me.
00:14:49You can't even stand.
00:14:50Lean on me.
00:14:51We have to take the stairs.
00:14:54Your leg.
00:14:55What happened?
00:14:56Old injury.
00:14:57A lifetime ago.
00:14:59Ezra.
00:14:59What happened?
00:15:01Get Ms. Andrews a new phone.
00:15:03The latest model.
00:15:04Yes, sir.
00:15:05Restore her cloud data immediately.
00:15:08I don't need...
00:15:09It's a worker's comp issue.
00:15:12Do it.
00:15:31You're still here?
00:15:33Finley is still working.
00:15:35And he said the storm was bad.
00:15:38No Ubers.
00:15:40I'll drive you.
00:15:43You shouldn't be driving.
00:15:44Your leg.
00:15:47I have a driver, Hallie.
00:16:06You were sleeping.
00:16:07We've been parked for 20 minutes.
00:16:09Where are we?
00:16:11Why did we stop?
00:16:13For the sugar cache.
00:16:17You didn't have to do this.
00:16:19I told you, Hallie.
00:16:20I take care of my investments.
00:16:32The contract.
00:16:33Send me the final version.
00:16:36Are you sure?
00:16:38I want access to Grimes.
00:16:40That's my condition.
00:16:48You'll have it.
00:16:49And I want to design.
00:16:52For real.
00:16:53Not just fetch coffee.
00:16:56You were never meant to fetch coffee, Hallie.
00:16:59I've seen your sketches.
00:17:03You have potential.
00:17:04You've seen my sketches?
00:17:06I'll see you tomorrow, fiancé.
00:17:21It came from the top floor.
00:17:23What is it?
00:17:25It's the first move in my war.
00:17:32Adequate.
00:17:34High praise from you.
00:17:36When you see him, don't look at him like a daughter.
00:17:39Look at him like an equal.
00:17:43I don't know if I can.
00:17:46You can.
00:17:47You have me.
00:17:55Showtime, Mrs. Gardner.
00:17:57Edzra, good to see you.
00:17:59And who is this lovely accessory?
00:18:01Senator, I'd like you to meet my fiancée.
00:18:04Fiancée?
00:18:05You?
00:18:06Yes.
00:18:07This is Hallie.
00:18:08Hallie Andrews.
00:18:10A pleasure to meet you, Senator.
00:18:14The pleasure is mine.
00:18:16He didn't even recognize me.
00:18:19He's intrigued.
00:18:21That's the first step.
00:18:23Now, we burn his world down.
00:18:26But first, we dance.
00:18:34Who are you, Exra Gardner?
00:18:36The man who saw your value when everyone else was blind.
00:18:42Kiss me.
00:18:43With pleasure.
00:19:09Andrews, explain this.
00:19:10These are Wendy's sketches.
00:19:12Why are you showing them to me?
00:19:13Don't play dumb.
00:19:15I've been looking for those since yesterday.
00:19:17Security found them in your personal drawer.
00:19:21She was playing a trick.
00:19:23And why would I steal this?
00:19:24It's derivative.
00:19:26It's mediocre.
00:19:27Excuse me?
00:19:28You little thief.
00:19:29You're just a glorified coffee girl.
00:19:31You only got here by men.
00:19:32Enough.
00:19:32Hallie, the sketches were in your desk.
00:19:34That's possession of proprietary IP.
00:19:36We have zero tolerance.
00:19:37Check the cameras.
00:19:39There's a camera right above my desk.
00:19:41Oh, didn't you hear?
00:19:42The cameras on this floor were down yesterday.
00:19:45How convenient.
00:19:47Ms. Andrews, hand over your badge.
00:19:50We need to escort you for an investigative interview.
00:19:52I didn't do it.
00:19:56Hallie.
00:19:57This way.
00:19:58Don't touch me.
00:20:02That's what happens when you fly too close to the sun.
00:20:05Sign this.
00:20:06It's standard protocol.
00:20:11Don't sign anything.
00:20:12Mr. Butler.
00:20:13This is an HR matter.
00:20:16Mr. Gardner is on his way down.
00:20:18And he is not pleased.
00:20:32Mr. Gardner, we found stolen sketches in Mrs. Andrews' desk.
00:20:37Proprietary designs belong to Ms. Quinn.
00:20:40Evidence.
00:20:43These were the files, sir.
00:20:45Mr. Gardner, we found stolen sketches in Mrs. Andrews' desk.
00:20:51You're telling me my special assistant with access to this
00:20:54proclomerate's confidential financials
00:20:56risked her career to steal this?
00:20:58This pedestrian, uninspired garbage?
00:21:02Sir, it's the fall lead piece.
00:21:04It's a poor knockoff of a Balenciade coat from five years ago.
00:21:07Where is the security footage?
00:21:09The cameras were down, sir.
00:21:10For maintenance.
00:21:11Maintenance.
00:21:13I pay $40 million a year for a system that rivals the Pentagon.
00:21:17And it just happened to go down?
00:21:18Finley, get IT security.
00:21:20I want a forensic auto with the server logs.
00:21:22Pull the physical backup tapes from the basement.
00:21:24If I find out this was a setup,
00:21:26termination will be the least of your worries.
00:21:28I will sue you for corporate sabotage
00:21:30until your great-crazed grandchildren are paying the legal fees.
00:21:36Tear that up.
00:21:41Ms. Andrews returns to her desk.
00:21:43If anyone has a problem with that,
00:21:45they can see me, personally.
00:21:48Allie.
00:21:50Yes?
00:21:51My office.
00:21:52Tomorrow morning, 8 a.m.
00:21:54Don't be late.
00:22:06Bring an appetite.
00:22:07I'm not eating alone.
00:22:22Sit.
00:22:24Eat.
00:22:27You look like you haven't eaten since the gala.
00:22:34It's for energy.
00:22:35For catching rats.
00:22:38He thinks...
00:22:40Your assistant...
00:22:41He definitely thinks we're sleeping together.
00:22:43He knows we are engaged.
00:22:45It's functionally the same thing in his mind.
00:22:48It's not.
00:22:49This is a business arrangement.
00:22:55Who paid for this breakfast?
00:22:57The company account.
00:22:59Why?
00:23:00I want to pay for my share.
00:23:01I am not a kept woman.
00:23:05I have a salary.
00:23:08Hallie, the orange juice costs more than your hourly rate.
00:23:12I don't care.
00:23:13How much?
00:23:15If it makes your fragile ego feel better,
00:23:18$200.
00:23:21For eggs?
00:23:22Are the kick-ins made of gold?
00:23:24It's from Le Couchet.
00:23:26Just eat the eggs, Hallie.
00:23:37That covers the eggs in the coffee.
00:23:39I'm not paying for the truffle fries because I didn't ask for them.
00:23:42You are ridiculous.
00:23:44I am independent.
00:23:47I have a rat to catch.
00:23:57Did you see?
00:23:58She just threw money at him.
00:24:00A 20?
00:24:01Is she tipping him?
00:24:02Or paying for...
00:24:05services?
00:24:08Okay.
00:24:09Spill.
00:24:10Did you pay Ezza $20 to kiss you?
00:24:12Or did he pay you to leave?
00:24:15It was for breakfast.
00:24:16We went Dutch.
00:24:19You went Dutch with a billionaire?
00:24:23Hallie, you are doing this so wrong.
00:24:40I told you the cameras were wiped.
00:24:42But the big boss is pulling the physical tapes.
00:24:44If they find out, I cut the feed.
00:24:46They won't.
00:24:47Just tell them it was a glitch.
00:24:49Here.
00:24:51Here.
00:24:52Here.
00:24:52Here.
00:24:53Here.
00:24:54Here.
00:24:55Here.
00:24:56Who's there?
00:25:17Hide me.
00:25:19Please.
00:25:27Is there a problem?
00:25:30No.
00:25:30No, sir.
00:25:31We just heard a noise.
00:25:34Leave.
00:25:36Gentlemen, go ahead.
00:25:37I'll meet you at the restaurant.
00:25:41Something has...
00:25:42come up.
00:25:47You can come out now, 0-0-7.
00:25:51I...
00:25:52I ripped your shirt.
00:25:55And the button...
00:25:57It rolled away.
00:25:59That was a mother-of-pearl button.
00:26:00Hand-stitched in Milan.
00:26:03I can sew it back on?
00:26:04With what?
00:26:05A stapler?
00:26:10Get in.
00:26:12Before you assault anyone else.
00:26:19I was tracking Wendy.
00:26:21She was paying off Mike, the guard.
00:26:24I know.
00:26:25You know?
00:26:26Then why didn't you do anything?
00:26:28If I fire her, they'll say I'm protecting my mistress.
00:26:31You need to find the smoking gun.
00:26:33You have to clear your own name.
00:26:35But I failed.
00:26:35They saw me.
00:26:38They saw a hoodlum in a hoodie.
00:26:40They didn't see Hala Andrews.
00:26:44You're giving me the keys to the castle?
00:26:46I'm giving you a chance to use those talents you hide.
00:26:49You think like an architect.
00:26:51I...
00:26:51I just have opinions.
00:26:53Use them.
00:26:54Find the evidence.
00:26:57Now go.
00:26:58Mike is on his lunch break.
00:27:07Oh my god.
00:27:08I am so, so sorry.
00:27:10Hallie.
00:27:11Are you secretly working for my tailor?
00:27:13Is this a commission scheme?
00:27:15I'll get a napkin.
00:27:17I can fix it.
00:27:19Stop.
00:27:19You're making it worse.
00:27:22Go.
00:27:23Get the footage.
00:27:24Before I bill you for a new wardrobe.
00:27:26Okay.
00:27:26Okay.
00:27:27Okay.
00:27:41It's Wendy.
00:27:42She's at my desk.
00:27:43Shoving the sketches in my drawer.
00:27:44Gotcha.
00:27:46Gotcha.
00:27:58He's humming.
00:27:59He sat down.
00:28:00Don't turn around.
00:28:01Please don't turn around.
00:28:04He's putting on headphones.
00:28:06A video game.
00:28:08This is my chance.
00:28:10I have you now, Wendy.
00:28:11Dead to rights.
00:28:19I want her here.
00:28:21I want her to apologize.
00:28:23To me.
00:28:24In front of you.
00:28:27Finley.
00:28:28Send Wendy Quinn up.
00:28:31Tell her it's regarding the Fashion Week roster.
00:28:40Ezra, darling.
00:28:41I'm so glad you called.
00:28:42I have some ideas for the show.
00:28:45Darling.
00:28:46Darling?
00:28:47Ms. Andrum seems to find that term distasteful.
00:28:50It's gross.
00:28:51It's unprofessional.
00:28:53And it's delusional.
00:28:54Who do you think you are?
00:28:56You're just an assistant.
00:29:03Explain.
00:29:05It's not what it looks like.
00:29:07I was just returning them.
00:29:09Returning them to the bottom of her personal drawer?
00:29:12Under her gym bag?
00:29:13I was under so much pressure.
00:29:15She's young.
00:29:16She's pretty.
00:29:16Everyone likes her.
00:29:17I was scared.
00:29:19So you framed her.
00:29:21You committed corporate espionage.
00:29:24And fraud.
00:29:25I'm sorry.
00:29:26Ezra, please.
00:29:27Don't apologize to me.
00:29:29Apologize to her.
00:29:30I'm sorry.
00:29:33I can't hear you.
00:29:35I'm sorry.
00:29:36I was jealous.
00:29:38Are you happy?
00:29:39Me?
00:29:41Yes.
00:29:42I am.
00:29:44Finley.
00:29:45Escort Ms. Quinn out.
00:29:46Have legal draft the termination papers.
00:29:48And notify the industry blacklist.
00:29:53Now.
00:29:53Let's talk about that face you made.
00:29:56What face?
00:29:57The one when she called me darling.
00:29:59You look like you wanted to vomit when Wendy called me darling.
00:30:03Or kill her.
00:30:04It was tacky.
00:30:06She sounded like she owned you.
00:30:07And that bothers you?
00:30:08Why?
00:30:09Because you're my boss.
00:30:11I'm your fiancé.
00:30:14Fake fiancé.
00:30:16Is it?
00:30:17You defended your territory, Hallie.
00:30:19That was jealousy.
00:30:21I am not jealous.
00:30:25Wendy is gone.
00:30:27Now for the other obstacle.
00:30:28Irvin.
00:30:31I have a plan.
00:30:32I'll handle him.
00:30:34You have three days.
00:30:36I don't like my future wife having a boyfriend.
00:30:39I'm not sharing.
00:30:40I haven't let him touch me in weeks.
00:30:44Good.
00:30:45Keep it that way.
00:30:51Ezra?
00:30:53If I called you darling, would it be gross?
00:30:56If you called me darling, I would probably buy you an island.
00:31:14Finley is outside the store.
00:31:16He'll drive you to dinner.
00:31:19He's always watching.
00:31:21And tonight Irving is going to learn what happens when you lie to the wrong woman.
00:31:29Mr. Gardner is concerned, Hallie.
00:31:32Irving Vinsonin is a snake.
00:31:35Snakes get stepped on when they're cornered, Finley.
00:31:38I'm wearing boots.
00:31:45Holly?
00:31:46Is that you?
00:31:48Hi, babe.
00:31:49You look incredible.
00:31:51I've never seen you dress like this.
00:31:53I felt like celebrating.
00:31:54Bring us your most expensive champagne.
00:31:57Celebrating what?
00:31:58Your big bonus, of course.
00:31:59You are paying, right?
00:32:01Of course.
00:32:02I'll be right back.
00:32:03Restroom.
00:32:09Leah?
00:32:10Who is Leah?
00:32:13An image.
00:32:14Look at our little bean.
00:32:18No.
00:32:19It's an ultrasound.
00:32:23Six weeks.
00:32:24Strong heartbeat.
00:32:26Call me.
00:32:27I'm back.
00:32:28What's wrong?
00:32:28You look pale.
00:32:30Just overwhelmed with happiness for us.
00:32:36A toast.
00:32:37To us.
00:32:38To the future.
00:32:39To us.
00:32:41Are you okay?
00:32:42You're quiet.
00:32:45Just thinking.
00:32:47About loyalty.
00:32:49Loyalty's important.
00:32:50That's why we work, right?
00:32:51We're a team.
00:32:53A team.
00:32:55A team.
00:33:07Did you do it?
00:33:10She's pregnant.
00:33:13Leah?
00:33:15I saw the text on his phone.
00:33:19The ultrasound.
00:33:20I will destroy him.
00:33:22I will burn his career to the ground tonight.
00:33:25No.
00:33:28Not yet.
00:33:30I need to do it.
00:33:32You're hurting.
00:33:33Let me handle it.
00:33:35I need to be the one to end it.
00:33:39Okay.
00:33:40Go back there.
00:33:42I'll finish it.
00:33:45I'll be right here.
00:34:03Ready for dessert?
00:34:05No.
00:34:06Check, please.
00:34:08What is wrong with you tonight?
00:34:10Let's go outside.
00:34:12It's over, Irving.
00:34:14What?
00:34:16Don't be dramatic.
00:34:18It's about Leah.
00:34:20It's about the baby.
00:34:23You.
00:34:24How do you know?
00:34:27I saw the message.
00:34:29Congratulations.
00:34:31You're going to be a father.
00:34:33And you're single.
00:34:37You can't just walk away.
00:34:39You're my ticket of fashion week.
00:34:40You owe me.
00:34:42I owe you nothing.
00:34:44Ah!
00:34:47Get up!
00:34:48You're making a scene!
00:34:53Touch her again, and you will lose the hand.
00:34:58Mr. Gardner!
00:35:00I...
00:35:01She fell!
00:35:02You are suspended.
00:35:04Security will escort you from the premises.
00:35:07Security escort you from the premises.
00:35:09If you attempt to enter again, I will have you arrested.
00:35:22I'm ruining your car.
00:35:24I'm ruining your suit.
00:35:31You're not ruining anything.
00:35:36You're finally coming home.
00:35:44Turn up the heat.
00:35:45Already done, sir.
00:35:47My dress is ruined.
00:35:49I look like a disaster.
00:35:51You look free.
00:35:52He's gone, Hallie.
00:35:54He can never hurt you again.
00:35:58He...
00:35:58He pushed me.
00:36:00He actually put his hands on me.
00:36:02And he will pay for it.
00:36:05Finley, call security.
00:36:07Revoke Irving's access tonight.
00:36:10Pack his office into boxes and leave them on the curb.
00:36:16Why are we here?
00:36:17This isn't my apartment.
00:36:19You're not going back there tonight.
00:36:20It's not safe.
00:36:21But all my stuff...
00:36:23We'll buy new stuff.
00:36:32I can walk.
00:36:33Indulge me.
00:36:34Shower.
00:36:35Get warm.
00:36:36I'll find you something dry.
00:36:47Bourbon.
00:36:48It's medicinal.
00:36:49What happens now?
00:36:51Now?
00:36:51We go to S Country.
00:36:52We win Fashion Week.
00:36:54We acquire the brand.
00:36:56And the marriage?
00:36:57The marriage stands.
00:36:58But the terms have changed.
00:37:00No more hiding.
00:37:01You are mine, Hallie.
00:37:02In public and in private.
00:37:05Ezra, thank you for catching me.
00:37:09I will always catch you.
00:37:12I will always catch you.
00:37:25You're out.
00:37:26Better?
00:37:27Yes.
00:37:28You're drinking?
00:37:29Finley isn't here yet.
00:37:31The rain.
00:37:31Traffic.
00:37:32You shouldn't drink on an empty stomach.
00:37:35You haven't eaten.
00:37:37I'm fine.
00:37:44I'm fine.
00:37:47You're not fine.
00:37:48It's your leg, isn't it?
00:37:49The alcohol is making it worse.
00:37:51The pain.
00:37:52It dulls the edges.
00:37:53You're heavy.
00:37:54Come on.
00:37:55You need to sit down.
00:37:57Or sleep.
00:37:57Bedroom.
00:37:59Finley.
00:38:00Tell him to go home.
00:38:15Hallie.
00:38:16Ezra.
00:38:17You're in pain.
00:38:18You need to get off.
00:38:20If I move, I might do something I can't take back.
00:38:24Like what?
00:38:25Like never letting you leave this room.
00:38:31Ezra?
00:38:44Good morning.
00:38:50Did you sleep?
00:38:54Ezra?
00:38:57Stay still.
00:38:58Just for a minute.
00:39:09I-I'm sorry.
00:39:13Hallie?
00:39:14I-I didn't-
00:39:16You were too close.
00:39:17He-he-
00:39:18Irving grabbed me like that.
00:39:20I panicked.
00:39:22You're afraid of me.
00:39:24No.
00:39:25I'm not.
00:39:25I'm just not used to being touched.
00:39:29I am not him.
00:39:31I would never hurt you.
00:39:32I know.
00:39:34But my body doesn't know that yet.
00:39:36Go get changed.
00:39:38Finley will take you to your apartment to get your things.
00:39:40I have a meeting.
00:39:42I have a meeting.
00:39:45I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
00:39:59-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I...
00:40:07We're closed for lunch
00:40:08And we don't do alterations on polyester
00:40:13It's not polyester
00:40:15It's Italian silk
00:40:18And I'm not asking for an alteration
00:40:20I'm asking for a resurrection
00:40:22Resurrection
00:40:28This is my work
00:40:31Where did you get this?
00:40:33It belongs to someone I care about
00:40:34I damaged it
00:40:36I need to fix it
00:40:38The button
00:40:39Do you have it?
00:40:40Do you have it?
00:40:42It's Mother of Pearl
00:40:44Vintage
00:40:45No, I lost it
00:40:47But the tear
00:40:48It doesn't have to be invisible
00:40:50The man who wears this isn't perfect
00:40:53What if the mend was visible?
00:40:56A detail that shows history
00:40:58You know fabric
00:41:00More than that, you know the man
00:41:02The owner
00:41:04He's impatient
00:41:07Very impatient
00:41:08I'm Silas
00:41:09I'll fix it
00:41:11But you'll help me select the thread
00:41:26You tell your friend he owes me a bottle of scotch for this
00:41:28And tell him not to ruin this one
00:41:32Ruin the shirt?
00:41:34Sure
00:41:35The shirt
00:41:36It'll be ready Saturday
00:41:38Pick it up at my workshop
00:41:39It's on Long Island
00:41:49Ezra
00:41:51Grandfather?
00:41:53Is everything okay?
00:41:54Better than okay
00:41:55The girl, Holly
00:41:57She brought your shirt in
00:41:59She has a fire in her
00:42:01I like her
00:42:02She found you
00:42:03Of course she did
00:42:06She thinks my name is a coincidence
00:42:08Keep it that way
00:42:10I want her at the birthday gale on Saturday
00:42:12She thinks she's just picking up laundry
00:42:18Grandpa, that's entrapment
00:42:21Call it a stress test
00:42:23If she can handle our family
00:42:25She can handle you
00:42:36Good riddice
00:42:38Good riddice
00:42:52Did you tell her?
00:42:54Not yet
00:42:55I have to play this dinner right
00:42:57She's suspicious
00:43:01Just dump her, Irving
00:43:02I'm pregnant
00:43:03You promised
00:43:04I know
00:43:05But she's close to Gartner now
00:43:08If I play the supportive boyfriend
00:43:10I get into the S-Country delegation
00:43:12Once I have the contacts
00:43:14I drop her
00:43:14Simple
00:43:16She's so pathetic
00:43:17She actually thinks you love her
00:43:19She's use of concepts
00:43:21For my pitch
00:43:25Once I have the files
00:43:26She's history
00:43:34He called me pathetic
00:43:38He called me useful
00:43:43A private fight is too small
00:43:45For a public humiliation
00:43:47The reckoning will be public
00:43:57No, not his tower
00:43:59Not his help
00:44:00I'll pay my own way
00:44:19Reservation for Andrews
00:44:21Miss?
00:44:24Are you okay?
00:44:25Just
00:44:26Tired
00:44:33Miss?
00:44:44Hallie?
00:44:45Ezra
00:44:45Help
00:44:47Where are you?
00:44:51Standard
00:44:52Lobby
00:44:53Don't move
00:44:55I'm three minutes away
00:45:04Hallie
00:45:04Talk to me
00:45:07Stomach
00:45:08Knives
00:45:11My car is out front
00:45:13To Mount Sinai
00:45:13Go!
00:45:16Clear the room
00:45:17I'll take this
00:45:18I'm Dr. Gardner Solon
00:45:20Ezra's aunt
00:45:21And you must be the girl
00:45:22Who made him run a red line
00:45:24It's acute gastritis
00:45:25Stress induced
00:45:26We're gonna stop the pain
00:45:33You're awake
00:45:35Did I die?
00:45:36No
00:45:38But you tried your best
00:45:39To give me a heart attack
00:45:41I'm sorry
00:45:42I didn't mean to call you
00:45:47It was an accident
00:45:49Who else would you call?
00:45:549-1-1
00:45:56I'm faster than 9-1-1
00:45:59She's stable
00:46:00You're staying overnight
00:46:05I can't afford a private room
00:46:07It's covered
00:46:10Employee benefits
00:46:12Go to sleep
00:46:13Go to sleep Hallie
00:46:17I'm not leaving
00:46:20Exa
00:46:22You didn't have to come
00:46:24Yes
00:46:26I did
00:46:30Why do I get poached salmon
00:46:31While you're eating
00:46:32Cardboard
00:46:34You have a delicate stomach
00:46:36I have one of steel
00:46:40I'm Venmoing you for this
00:46:48You want me to buy you dinner?
00:46:51You own the restaurant
00:46:56I want a home-cooked meal
00:46:59I can cook
00:47:04Prove it
00:47:07Where is the invalid?
00:47:10We had to see the woman
00:47:12Who finally made
00:47:13Ezra Gardner
00:47:14Leave aboard me
00:47:16Get out
00:47:18Hi
00:47:20I'm Luke
00:47:21Ezra talks about you
00:47:22A lot
00:47:24He talks about me?
00:47:27I mentioned my assistant
00:47:29Once
00:47:30Once
00:47:31You almost bought out
00:47:32Her coffee shop
00:47:33Because they kept
00:47:34Messing up her
00:47:34Latte
00:47:39You did what?
00:47:45Out!
00:47:46She needs to rest
00:47:52Did you really threaten
00:47:54To buy my coffee shop?
00:47:57It was a strategic assessment
00:47:59Of real estate value
00:48:01You're a terrible liar, Exel
00:48:03I'm a very good liar
00:48:08But with you
00:48:10It's becoming difficult
00:48:12Why?
00:48:14Because you see too much
00:48:25Vitals check
00:48:26Vitals check
00:48:33What the?
00:48:35It's just
00:48:36Gone
00:48:37Don't go in
00:48:38The place smells like a sewer
00:48:42Irvin did this
00:48:43Irvin did this
00:48:44No
00:48:46The landlord
00:48:47See the paper
00:48:48Stapled to the wall
00:48:49Eviction notice
00:48:50He never told me
00:48:51He just took the door
00:48:52But my boxes
00:48:53My clothes
00:48:54Leave them
00:48:55Everything in there
00:48:56Is contaminated
00:48:57It's not safe
00:48:57I can't just leave
00:48:59I can't just leave
00:49:27Everything I own
00:49:27Fine
00:49:28Fine
00:49:29The Gardner Tower
00:49:30Has corporate suites
00:49:30Fortieth floor
00:49:32Secure
00:49:32Private
00:49:33How much?
00:49:35Employee rate
00:49:36Fifty dollars a night
00:49:40Fifty dollars?
00:49:41For a Manhattan suite?
00:49:43You're lying
00:49:44Do you want the room
00:49:45Or the street?
00:49:52It has a door
00:50:01What are you doing?
00:50:03Checking for bugs
00:50:04Cameras
00:50:04Listening devices
00:50:07You're paranoid
00:50:08I'm careful
00:50:10I'm in the penthouse
00:50:12Ten floors up
00:50:13Private elevator code
00:50:15Is 0815
00:50:16Use it if you need anything
00:50:190815?
00:50:19Is that a date?
00:50:20It's the SEC filing date
00:50:21For our last major acquisition
00:50:24Get some sleep
00:50:25Lock the door
00:50:33You wanted him so badly, Leah
00:50:35You stole him
00:50:37You lied for him
00:50:40So thank you
00:50:41For taking out my trash
00:50:45She's so pathetic
00:50:46I just need her
00:50:47To sketch the concepts
00:50:48Once I have the files
00:50:50She's history
00:50:50She actually thinks
00:50:52You love her
00:50:53God, remember that scarf?
00:50:55Love?
00:50:55Please
00:50:56I'm doing this
00:50:57For your uncle's trust fund
00:50:59Once we're married
00:50:59And the baby secures my stake
00:51:01I can finally stop
00:51:02Pretending to care
00:51:04You son of a bitch
00:51:07No!
00:51:07Uncle Ray!
00:51:08Stop!
00:51:08He didn't mean it!
00:51:10Get off me!
00:51:11I'll sue you!
00:51:13I'll...
00:51:21Allie?
00:51:22I did it
00:51:24I blew it up
00:51:26Irving confessed to fraud on tape
00:51:29The police were arriving
00:51:31Good
00:51:32So why do you look like you lost?
00:51:34Because it doesn't change anything
00:51:36I'm still the girl who was fooled for three years
00:51:39You're the girl who fought back
00:51:41Most people would have cried
00:51:43You burned his world down
00:51:47Welcome to the club
00:51:51I just got a text
00:51:52My repair is ready for pickup
00:51:53In Southampton
00:51:56Southampton?
00:51:57I have a house out there
00:52:01I'm heading out tomorrow morning
00:52:02I can give you a lift
00:52:04Really?
00:52:06That would be great
00:52:08Or to meet your night night
00:52:11It's on the way
00:52:12Go to bed, Hallie
00:52:16We leave at 9
00:52:24Is there a party?
00:52:26It appears to be a formal event
00:52:27You can't go in wearing that
00:52:36Put this on
00:52:38The back seat is private
00:52:40What?
00:52:41No
00:52:41I'm not crashing a party
00:52:42My grandfather would be insulted if you didn't stay
00:52:45You will be respected
00:52:48Change
00:53:00Hallie!
00:53:01You came!
00:53:03Silas?
00:53:08Grandfather
00:53:12Grandfather
00:53:13Come in, come in
00:53:14Everyone is dying to meet you
00:53:17What is going on?
00:53:19You said he was a tailor
00:53:21He is
00:53:22He just happens to own the company too
00:53:24And this is his 80th birthday gala
00:53:26I am going to kill you
00:53:30Smile
00:53:31If you run now
00:53:33You humiliate him
00:53:35And me
00:53:47Ezra
00:53:48You brought
00:53:50A date?
00:53:51Camila
00:53:52Meet Hala
00:54:02My fiance
00:54:07You deliberately paraded me in front of her?
00:54:12You used our arrangement
00:54:13To provoke your ex-girlfriend
00:54:15Without a single warning
00:54:18I was establishing your position
00:54:20As my fiance
00:54:22You need to get used to swatting away flies like Camila
00:54:25She looked at me like I was something she'd scrape off her shoe
00:54:28She's dangerous, Exel
00:54:29I know
00:54:31She's also vindictive
00:54:32If she thinks you're just an employee, she'll destroy you for sport
00:54:35If she believes this is real, she has to hesitate
00:54:37You have no idea who she is to me
00:54:39What that family represents
00:54:42I know you've been investigating Senator Grimes
00:54:44My security team flagged your deep dives into his financials
00:54:49You've been watching me?
00:54:50Svother
00:54:52I've been protecting my assets
00:54:53You are one of them
00:54:56That man's corruption cost my family everything
00:55:00That's all you need to know
00:55:01Then you need this protection even more
00:55:04I didn't sign up to be a weapon in your personal vendas
00:55:08Irving has poisoned your reputation
00:55:10He's telling everyone you stole designs
00:55:13Even with him gone, the rumors will stick
00:55:16But as Hallie Gardner
00:55:18You become untouchable
00:55:20And what do you get?
00:55:22My grandfather off my back
00:55:24And as my wife
00:55:25You'll have the power to face the Senator directly
00:55:28So it's a transaction
00:55:30It's an escalation of our contract
00:55:32One year
00:55:34We live together
00:55:36We play the part
00:55:37You get access, protection, and resources
00:55:41I get stability
00:55:42And the physical terms?
00:55:48No forced intimacy
00:55:50Unless you want it
00:55:53Cake time!
00:55:55Come on, lovebirds!
00:56:03Okay
00:56:06Okay
00:56:07Let's go cut a cake, darling
00:56:12One year
00:56:16I have no intention of letting you go in a year
00:56:19I'm playing the long game
00:56:23Stop the car
00:56:24We're 40 minutes from the city, Hallie
00:56:26Go back to sleep
00:56:27I said stop the car
00:56:31No
00:56:35Put that back on
00:56:36You manipulated me
00:56:37You paraded me around like a trophy
00:56:40Just to scare off your ex-girlfriend
00:56:41I gave you a shield
00:56:43As my fiancée, Camilla can't touch you
00:56:46I don't want a shield that comes with a leash
00:56:48You didn't ask me!
00:56:49Because you were drowning
00:56:51And I don't let my investments drown
00:56:53An investment?
00:56:55Is that what I am?
00:56:56Pull over, Exra
00:56:57Or I swear to God
00:56:58I will open this door right now!
00:57:00Stop!
00:57:03You are reckless
00:57:06I am free
00:57:15Get back in the car, Hallie
00:57:17No
00:57:18I'm not going back to your tower
00:57:20I'm not going back to your rules
00:57:21And where are you going to go?
00:57:23It's 2am
00:57:24You're in a ball gown
00:57:25On the expressway
00:57:27I'll figure it out
00:57:28I'm calling an Uber
00:57:30Fine
00:57:31You want independence?
00:57:33Have it
00:57:43No cars available?
00:57:45No, no, no!
00:57:49Pick up the phone, Hallie
00:57:51Just call a car
00:57:52I hate you!
00:57:54You are an arrogant, controlling jerk!
00:57:56Message not delivered?
00:57:58No service?
00:58:00Fine
00:58:00I don't need you either
00:58:05Hey
00:58:07You haven't eaten
00:58:08I got you a tuna melt
00:58:24No, please, no!
00:58:33Well, well, well
00:58:34What are you doing here, Halla?
00:58:37Go away, Leah
00:58:38I'm here for my prenatal checkup
00:58:40Irving and I need to look like a perfect, happy family
00:58:45What are you hiding?
00:58:48Nothing
00:58:51Hey, give that back!
00:58:54Oh my god
00:58:55A pregnancy test?
00:58:58You?
00:58:59Give it back
00:59:02Who's the daddy, Halla?
00:59:04Is it Irvin?
00:59:06Or that billionaire you're trying to scam?
00:59:08Shut up!
00:59:09You don't know what you're talking about
00:59:11I know exactly what you are
00:59:12A desperate little climber
00:59:14Irving told me everything
00:59:16Leah, stop
00:59:17Or what?
00:59:18You'll cry?
00:59:20Like your mother cried when your dad left her?
00:59:28What did you say?
00:59:29Irving told me
00:59:30About your mommy issues
00:59:32About how your mother was some groupie
00:59:34Who couldn't keep her legs shut
00:59:40You bitch!
00:59:42My baby!
00:59:43She pushed me!
00:59:44Help!
00:59:45She's trying to kill my baby!
00:59:50That girl just shoved a pregnant woman
00:59:52Call security!
00:59:53I didn't
00:59:54You are insane
00:59:59You're done
01:00:00I'm going to sue you for everything
01:00:02I'll make sure Ezra knows you're a violent psycho
01:00:06Who attacks pregnant women
01:00:22Know your place
01:00:24Trash
01:00:32I wouldn't do that
01:00:36Let go of me
01:00:37Let go of me
01:00:37Who do you think you are?
01:00:42Mr. Gardner?
01:00:44Hallie
01:00:45Are you hurt?
01:00:49She stepped on you
01:00:52I'm fine
01:00:55She started it
01:00:56She pushed me
01:00:57I'm pregnant
01:00:59I'm pregnant
01:01:00Finley
01:01:02Sir
01:01:03I have the security footage
01:01:05It shows Miss Vance initiating the conferencing
01:01:07Stealing medical documents
01:01:09And assaulting Andrews with a weapon
01:01:10Weapon?
01:01:11It was a shoe
01:01:14Assault with a deadly weapon
01:01:16And since you're claiming pregnancy
01:01:18We'll add child endangerment
01:01:22No police
01:01:23Please
01:01:24Oh, the police are the least of your problems
01:01:26Vance Imports
01:01:28That's your father's company, correct?
01:01:30Yes
01:01:31They have a bridge loan
01:01:32With my company
01:01:33I just instructed my CFO to call it in
01:01:35Tonight
01:01:36You can't
01:01:37That will bankrupt us
01:01:38You should have thought of that
01:01:40Before you touched my fiance
01:01:44Let's go, Hallie
01:01:46I can't
01:01:47Why were you here?
01:01:49Were you following me?
01:01:51Yes
01:01:52I was worried
01:01:54You disappeared
01:01:55You haven't answered my calls
01:01:56Because you blocked me
01:01:59You left me on the highway
01:02:00And then you cut me off
01:02:04Blocked you?
01:02:05I never blocked you
01:02:07Look
01:02:19Hallie, get in the car
01:02:21Let me take you home
01:02:22No
01:02:24I can't do this
01:02:25The tracking
01:02:25The fighting
01:02:27I just need to be alone
01:02:30Hallie
01:02:31I'm leaving
01:02:40Fiance
01:02:41He said he didn't block me
01:02:45Hallie
01:02:46I know you're in there
01:02:49Go away
01:02:50I'm calling the police
01:03:04You think you're better than me?
01:03:07Get away from me
01:03:09You're going to pay for what you did
01:03:11Let's see if he still wants you
01:03:13Let's see if he still wants you
01:03:13After I'm done with you
01:03:15Ezra
01:03:16Ezra
01:03:17Help
01:03:25You're dead
01:03:26No
01:03:28No
01:03:29Let me go
01:03:30I'm going to make you pay for that
01:03:40Somebody help me
01:03:44What?
01:03:47Ezra
01:03:47Ezra
01:03:48Ezra
01:03:59Ezra stop
01:04:01You're going to kill him
01:04:04Please stop
01:04:05You're scaring me
01:04:09Ezra look at me
01:04:11Look at me
01:04:13Look at me
01:04:21Did he
01:04:21Did he touch you?
01:04:26No
01:04:27You came
01:04:30You came
01:04:31The SOS came through
01:04:33Just a location
01:04:37When I heard you scream
01:04:42I thought I was too late
01:04:50Clear the area
01:04:51Secure the perimeter
01:04:53Police are two minutes out
01:04:56Get them out of my way
01:04:58Ezra
01:04:59She needs a medic
01:05:02She needs me
01:05:04We're leaving
01:05:09Ezra
01:05:22Ezra
01:05:23This needs stitches
01:05:25Okay
01:05:26It's fine
01:05:29It's not fine
01:05:31None of this is fine
01:05:33Hallie
01:05:33You almost died tonight
01:05:35Because you're stubborn
01:05:37Because you think you have to prove something
01:05:40I just wanted to be independent
01:05:43Independence is useless if you're dead
01:05:47Listen to me
01:05:49Listen to me
01:05:49No more games
01:05:52No more running away
01:05:55Okay
01:05:55You are moving in with me
01:05:57Tonight
01:05:59Permanently
01:06:09I'm not asking
01:06:10I'm not asking Holly
01:06:10I can't function knowing you're out there unprotected
01:06:14I can't breathe
01:06:19Okay
01:06:19Say it again
01:06:21Say it again
01:06:22Say it again
01:06:22I'll move in
01:06:43Finley
01:06:43Finley
01:06:45Take us home
01:06:57I need to check your ribs
01:06:59He sat on you
01:07:02I know
01:07:06Does this hurt?
01:07:09A little
01:07:10Bruised but not broken
01:07:12Here
01:07:26Where are you going?
01:07:27Don't leave
01:07:29I'll take the couch
01:07:31I won't be far
01:07:32No
01:07:33Stay
01:07:34Please
01:07:35I don't want to be alone
01:07:39Hallie
01:07:48Come here
01:07:50Ezra
01:07:51How did you know where I was before I called you?
01:07:55I put a tracker in your purse
01:07:58You what?
01:07:59Before you get angry
01:08:00I did it after Irving pushed you in the rain
01:08:06I knew he was unstable
01:08:11A tracker
01:08:13Hallie?
01:08:14I'm not angry
01:08:16I'm thinking about his hands on my throat
01:08:18And how you broke down the door
01:08:23You're not?
01:08:25No
01:08:25Thank you
01:08:31I will always find you Hallie
01:08:33Always
01:08:40You tore the scar tissue again
01:08:42Dr. Slolar is going to kill you
01:08:47It was worth it
01:08:51Six flights, Ezra
01:08:53You ran up six flights of stairs
01:08:55Six flights?
01:08:57You ran?
01:09:01Hallie
01:09:02Good morning
01:09:07Why would you do that to your leg?
01:09:09There was no time to wait for the fire department
01:09:14I couldn't wait for you
01:09:16You idiot
01:09:19I've been cold worse
01:09:27I was going to do this properly
01:09:29With candles and music
01:09:30But I think we're past that
01:09:33Hallie
01:09:34Marry me
01:09:34For real
01:09:36Not for a year
01:09:37Not for protection
01:09:38Marry me because last night
01:09:40The thought of my life without you
01:09:41It was unbearable
01:09:44Is this because I might be pregnant?
01:09:50You
01:09:51Might be pregnant?
01:09:52I missed my period
01:09:54I was at the clinic to get tested
01:09:56When Leah attacked
01:09:57I never got the results
01:10:01It doesn't matter
01:10:03Pregnant or not
01:10:04I want you
01:10:07Okay
01:10:15Finley
01:10:16Finley
01:10:16Get the car
01:10:17We're going to the hospital first
01:10:19Then City Hall
01:10:20This is where I
01:10:20Let him
01:10:20I am
01:10:20Here
