00:00:02So this is New York. The Big Apple. These buildings are so tall they could poke a hole in the

00:00:08sky.

00:00:08Come on, Daisy. Make it work in New York, make the money, and Dad gets his kidney surgery.

00:00:23Sir, can you hear me?

00:00:25Hey, kid, don't touch him. In New York, being a good Samaritan can bankrupt you.

00:00:30Yeah, if he dies in your arms, you're getting sued for life.

00:00:33He 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?

00:00:55Thank God, you're awake. Are you feeling better now?

00:01:01Kid, do you have a boyfriend?

00:01:04Uh, sir, I literally just got to New York. Dating isn't exactly on my to-do list yet.

00:01:09Good. I have a grandson. Julian. Cold as ice. Works too much.

00:01:13He needs someone like you to bring some sunshine into his life.

00:01:23Let go of him. Write her a check. Make her leave. I've seen this kind of street scam before.

00:01:30Excuse me? You think having money gives you the right to insult people?

00:01:33That's enough, Julian. She saved my life.

00:01:38Julian, this is the girl I choose for you. Now take her to the marriage bureau and get married. Today.

00:01:48Grandpa, this whole payback act ends now.

00:01:51Marcus 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?

00:02:06She is not homeless. She saved my life. Show some respect.

00:02:13Listen carefully. You're pushing our global towards an IPO, but you only control 35% of the voting shares.

00:02:23Without 15%, the board will throw you out before the IPO even happens.

00:02:28Marry her. What?

00:02:29Keep it private for one year. A real legal marriage. 12 months.

00:02:34After the IPO, my 15% goes to you. Otherwise, you can start packing up your CEO office.

00:02:39You can't be serious.

00:02:43Mom, it's me. I made it to New York.

00:02:46Daisy, they found a kidney donor for your father, but the surgery and recovery will cost at least $100,000.

00:02:52If 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.

00:03:08That was quick. So what's the price?

00:03:11I need $100,000. Turn, I'll cooperate and fulfill the one year marriage.

00:03:16100 grand. Not bad. Saving a life really pays well, huh?

00:03:19Done. 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.

00:03:28Two, you stay out of my personal life. Three, one year from now, you take the money and disappear.

00:03:32Deal.

00:03:36Are you both entering this marriage voluntarily?

00:03:40Yes.

00:03:42Yes.

00:03:47The 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.

00:04:09Wow. This car rides really smooth. Must cost at least $50,000, right?

00:04:15Something like that.

00:04:17Ma'am, this custom colonon costs over half a million just in upgrades, and you think it's 50 grand?

00:04:29Hi, I'm Daisy Miller. I'm the new janitor starting today.

00:04:33Ugh. What's that smell?

00:04:35Let me guess. Kentucky?

00:04:36This is a global financial headquarters, not some farm.

00:04:40A job is a job. I'm here to work, not to impress anyone's nose.

00:04:44Got some attitude, huh?

00:04:46Good morning, Miss People Like This now. Where are ya?

00:04:49Julian hates unprofessional staff.

00:04:51Brendan, keep an eye on her. Don't let her dirty the lobby floors.

00:04:53Julian? You 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.

00:05:01Julian? Same name as my husband? No way. Could he actually be?

00:05:13Wow, Daisy? Seriously? This is how you clean?

00:05:17Water all over the floor? What if a VIP slips?

00:05:20You planning to pay the lawsuit out of your janitor's salary?

00:05:22I'll dry it right now.

00:05:25Oh my god, my shoes! Do you have any idea what these cost?

00:05:29I'm so sorry, Miss Victoria. I didn't mean to-

00:05:34Unbelievable. It's clear some people haven't learned proper manners.

00:05:38You can't even walk without making a mess.

00:05:40Those dirty hands of yours touched my shoes.

00:05:43You couldn't afford them in ten lifetimes.

00:05:46I said I was sorry.

00:05:47You 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.

00:05:55Get on your knees and wipe them clean.

00:05:56No. No?

00:05:59Brenda?

00:06:00Maybe she doesn't understand how things work here.

00:06:03Hm. Show her.

00:06:07Good morning, Mr. Sterling.

00:06:10Good morning, Mr. Sterling.

00:06:19Daisy?

00:06:21Julian?

00:06:25Who hit her?

00:06:30Julian, you actually know this... janitor?

00:06:35Sterling Global doesn't tolerate trash that bullies its own staff.

00:06:40Marcus.

00:06:42Remove this receptionate from Manhattan.

00:06:45Effective immediately.

00:06:46And make sure she never works in finance again.

00:06:49Mr. Sterling, please!

00:06:51I'm begging you!

00:06:52I didn't know she was connected to you!

00:06:57Get her out of my sight.

00:07:01Come with me.

00:07:11I kept my identity hidden for a reason.

00:07:15I wanted to see what kind of person you really were.

00:07:18Most people would have jumped at the chance to call themselves Mrs. Sterling.

00:07:22Used the name.

00:07:23Pulled favors.

00:07:25Climbed their way up.

00:07:28But you actually showed up here to mop floors.

00:07:31Mr. Sterling.

00:07:32Do rich people really think poor people are born greedy?

00:07:35Like 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.

00:07:47No.

00:07:48No?

00:07:49I came to New York to earn money and save my dad.

00:07:52With 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.

00:08:01I don't.

00:08:02I work hard, I earn honestly, and I sleep just fine at night.

00:08:06If this marriage is supposed to stay secret, then let it stay secret.

00:08:10Completely.

00:08:11You'd rather scrub floors than sit in a manager's office?

00:08:14Yes.

00:08:17Mr. Sterling.

00:08:18For this one year, I'm your temporary wife.

00:08:21You don't need to control my life, and no one else can shape who I'll become but myself.

00:08:24You don't need to control my life.

00:08:24Yes.

00:08:25They'll need to control my life.

00:08:29You cannot listen.

00:08:34I don't need to control my teacher or lend my Christmas!

00:08:35Daisy, come here.

00:08:44What are you doing?

00:08:47Nothing, just curious.

00:08:50Don't know me too.

00:09:01I'm sorry, I need to get back to work.

00:09:12That's the girl.

00:09:13The one who crossed Victoria and somehow kept her job.

00:09:15Yeah, and I heard she was in the CEO's office earlier.

00:09:18Come on, nobody gets that kind of access for free.

00:09:20A small-town girl from Kentucky, she's definitely playing some kind of game.

00:09:24Hey, don't listen to them.

00:09:26But you really should be careful around Victoria.

00:09:28Why?

00:09:29She's from the Vance family.

00:09:31Old money, big influence.

00:09:33And she and Mr. Sterling grew up together.

00:09:35Basically childhood sweethearts.

00:09:42Julian, hold on.

00:09:44Your tie's crooked.

00:09:46Let me fix it.

00:09:50See what I mean?

00:09:52The whole company already treats her like the future Mrs. Sterling.

00:09:55Three years ago, Julian was in a terrible car accident.

00:09:58A mysterious girl saved him.

00:10:00Most people believe that girl was Victoria.

00:10:03So, there's already someone in his heart.

00:10:11Chloe, about what you said earlier, the woman who saved his life, was that really Victoria?

00:10:17Honestly?

00:10:18No idea.

00:10:18But for the past three years, Victoria's been acting like she's the one.

00:10:22And Julian never corrected.

00:10:23If anything, he lets her.

00:10:27Daisy, just hear me out.

00:10:30Don't fall for the CEO.

00:10:32Guys like him don't fall in love easily.

00:10:34And if they do, it's usually with the woman who saved their life.

00:10:39So, this marriage was never real to him.

00:10:42Just 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?

00:10:54No.

00:10:55Keep it confidential.

00:10:57During the agreement period, I don't want anyone disturbing her life.

00:11:02Julian!

00:11:02What the hell did I just see in HR?

00:11:05You got married?

00:11:06Who is she?

00:11:07Victoria.

00:11:08You don't walk into my office without knocking.

00:11:12I came to this company because of you.

00:11:14I stayed here for three years because of you.

00:11:17And now you just marry some random woman?

00:11:19Just like that?

00:11:20Who is she?

00:11:21That's not your concern.

00:11:23Leave.

00:11:25Julian!

00:11:26Now.

00:11:27I hear Julian is married.

00:11:29Arthur always did have a sharp eye for people.

00:11:32Any girl he approves of must be special.

00:11:36My lady, we've learned that the new Mrs. Sterling works at Sterling Global.

00:11:39Her 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.

00:11:46Prepare something simple for me to wear, nothing expensive.

00:11:50I'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.

00:12:14You can't sit there.

00:12:15That seating is for VIP clients.

00:12:17Not for people wandering in off the street.

00:12:19I twisted my ankle.

00:12:21I just need a minute to sit.

00:12:23Then sit outside.

00:12:24There's a sidewalk for that.

00:12:26Don't mess up our lobby.

00:12:27Get up.

00:12:30Tiffany, what's the problem?

00:12:32Why is she still here?

00:12:34Mrs. Victoria, she won't leave.

00:12:35Says she hurt her ankle.

00:12:38Hurt her ankle?

00:12:40Or looking for a payout?

00:12:42Ma'am, Sterling Global has a top-tier legal department.

00:12:46If you're planning to fake an injury and sue us, you picked the wrong place.

00:12:52Is this how young socialists behave now?

00:12:55No courtesy.

00:12:57No grace.

00:12:58How unfortunate.

00:13:01Excuse me?

00:13:03You crazy old woman!

00:13:05Look at you!

00:13:06And you think you get to judge me?

00:13:10Tiffany, call security.

00:13:12Get her out of here.

00:13:14Stop!

00:13:15She's injured!

00:13:15You can't just throw her out!

00:13:17Of course.

00:13:18Daisy again.

00:13:19Don't you have floors to clean?

00:13:21Or 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.

00:13:29I brought this from Tucky.

00:13:30It's really good for springs and swelling.

00:13:33Thank you, dear.

00:13:34Kindness like this is hard to find in New York.

00:13:38Wow.

00:13:39The country girl and the old beggar.

00:13:41What a perfect match.

00:13:45Security, get these two out of here.

00:13:50Miss Victoria, you can't fire me just because I helped someone.

00:13:53Can't?

00:13:53Let me explain something to you.

00:13:55At Sterling Global, what I say goes.

00:13:57If I want you out, you're out.

00:13:59Don't be afraid, dear.

00:14:00Anyone who touches you today will answer to Julian personally.

00:14:03I promise you that.

00:14:07Julian, thank God you're here.

00:14:09This janitor brought in some unstable old girl and caused a huge disturbance.

00:14:14She even talked back to management.

00:14:15I was just about to have them removed.

00:14:18Godmother?

00:14:19Why are you dressed like this?

00:14:21Julian, 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.

00:14:44I thought she was just some random person.

00:14:46I mean, I didn't...

00:14:47Julian, this is Daisy.

00:14:48She's the one who helped me.

00:14:50From today on, no one at Sterling Global lays a hand on Daisy.

00:14:54Julian, are we clear?

00:14:58Crystal clear.

00:15:07Julian!

00:15:08Are you seriously humiliating me over a janitor over her?

00:15:11She smells like cheap medicine and cleaning supplies and you're throwing me under the bus for this girl?

00:15:15What 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?

00:15:20Humiliate you?

00:15:22No, Victoria.

00:15:23You did that to yourself.

00:15:25You were reckless, rude, and completely out of line.

00:15:29The way you spoke to Lady Montgomery was unacceptable.

00:15:31Do you even understand who she is?

00:15:33The 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.

00:15:41I thought she was just some lost old woman.

00:15:42She looked like she didn't belong here.

00:15:44And that gave you the right to humiliate her?

00:15:46To treat her like she was beneath you?

00:15:48To insult her in my company?

00:15:50If Daisy hadn't stepped in, Lady Montgomery wouldn't be sitting here drinking tea.

00:15:54She would have walked out that door.

00:15:55And Sterling Global would have lost her support permanently.

00:15:58You almost destroyed three years of work in ten minutes.

00:16:01Then why are you protecting her?

00:16:02Why her?

00:16:02We grew up together, Julian.

00:16:03I've been standing next to you for years.

00:16:06Julian, tell me the truth.

00:16:08Have you ever loved me?

00:16:10I told you before, we are friends.

00:16:12Nothing more.

00:16:13Friends?

00:16:14You call this friendship?

00:16:16You'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?

00:16:30Fine.

00:16:31I'll tell you.

00:16:31Sir, this isn't necessary.

00:16:34Listen carefully, Victoria.

00:16:35I have no interest in political marriages.

00:16:39I don't need alliances.

00:16:41And I don't need family arrangements.

00:16:44Because I already made my choice.

00:16:49Daisy is not just a janitor.

00:16:55Mr. Sterling, please don't say things like that.

00:17:00Manager Victoria, he's just thanking me for helping Lady Montgomery earlier.

00:17:04He didn't mean it.

00:17:07Thanking you?

00:17:08Julian, that's not even funny.

00:17:10Victoria, you should be working on the IPO briefing.

00:17:13Go.

00:17:15Go.

00:17:19Go.

00:17:21Go.

00:17:25Take it.

00:17:26A thank you gift for what you did today.

00:17:28I really can't accept this.

00:17:30It's way too expensive.

00:17:32And 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.

00:17:58My godmother knows who you are now.

00:18:00She likes you.

00:18:01A lot.

00:18:03You helped me today.

00:18:04This is the least I could do.

00:18:06Julian, I left my phone.

00:18:08What was that?

00:18:09What were you two doing?

00:18:11Victoria.

00:18:12Victoria, knock before you enter my office.

00:18:14Daisy, get back to work.

00:18:16Yes, sir.

00:18:23Well, damn.

00:18:24If it isn't Tucky's very own violin princess, Daisy Miller.

00:18:28Never thought I'd find you here.

00:18:30So what happened?

00:18:31Manhattan chew you up already?

00:18:33Now you're scrubbing floors just to survive?

00:18:35I heard you're working for Lady Montgomery now.

00:18:37You finally got yourself a nice uniform.

00:18:39It's not a uniform.

00:18:40I'm her private security consultant.

00:18:41Big difference.

00:18:42My salary alone could buy your family farm three times over.

00:18:45New York's for people like me, Daisy.

00:18:46Not for some farm girl who still smells like hay.

00:18:49She used to be quite a big deal.

00:18:50A rising star in the national youth music competition.

00:18:53Her future was bright.

00:18:54But then, she tried to win by using improper means to get close to a judge.

00:18:57Got exposed on the spot.

00:18:59Disqualified.

00:18:59Thrown out immediately.

00:19:00After that, her entire hometown was ashamed of-

00:19:03Jackson, you really want to bring that up?

00:19:05Because if we're telling the story, let's tell the whole thing.

00:19:07You bribed the judges.

00:19:09You framed me.

00:19:10And you took my spot.

00:19:11I work for a living.

00:19:12I take care of my father.

00:19:13I earn every dollar I make.

00:19:14I don't lie.

00:19:15I don't cheat.

00:19:16And I don't tear down people from my own hometown just to feel superior.

00:19:20You little janitor.

00:19:21Who the hell do you think you are?

00:19:27Let go!

00:19:27You're hurting me!

00:19:57You're hurting me!

00:20:03First, you steal something worth a million dollars.

00:20:05Now, you're making up stories, too?

00:20:07That ring was clearly meant for the future Mrs. Sterling.

00:20:09And somehow, you think that's you?

00:20:10That's actually funny.

00:20:11People like her always think one expensive thing will change a whole life.

00:20:13Steal a diamond, become a princess.

00:20:14Classic delusion-

00:20:15Back off!

00:20:15Stolen property doesn't belong to you.

00:20:17Don't touch it.

00:20:18Hands like yours will ruin it.

00:20:19You even know what this is worth?

00:20:21One scratch, and you'd owe more than your whole life can pay back.

00:20:24What is wrong with you?

00:20:25Get your foot off her!

00:20:26You're gonna crush her hand!

00:20:27Good.

00:20:28That's exactly how you deal with thieves.

00:20:30And corporate spies.

00:20:31Security, take her and the stolen property.

00:20:34I want him to see what kind of trash he's protecting.

00:20:44Julian, you need to hear this.

00:20:46Take a look at your employee.

00:20:48She stole the ring you had custom made.

00:20:51Aurora's tear.

00:20:52Jackson caught her in the act.

00:20:56Who did that to her?

00:20:57Mr. Sterling.

00:20:58I handled it.

00:20:59She 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?

00:21:06Who told you you could lay a hand on my employee?

00:21:13Julian!

00:21:14You're defending the wrong person!

00:21:15She stole from you!

00:21:17Let me make this very clear.

00:21:18I gave that ring to Daisy, personally.

00:21:22Jackson falsely accused a company employee, assaulted her, and damaged private property.

00:21:27Take him to the police.

00:21:29Legal will press charges.

00:21:30I don't want him anywhere near this company again.

00:21:32Get him out.

00:21:37Here.

00:21:38Let me help you.

00:21:41If I gave it to you, you should have kept it on.

00:21:43Look 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?

00:21:50I didn't want to cause trouble for you.

00:21:52Now it's ruined.

00:21:54It's just a ring.

00:21:55It can be remade.

00:21:57Your hand can't.

00:21:58Hold still.

00:22:05Mr. Sterling!

00:22:06We found her.

00:22:07The woman who saved you in that Kentucky car accident three years ago?

00:22:12Go to the medical room.

00:22:14Get your hand treated properly.

00:22:15Then come back and wait for me.

00:22:19Start talking.

00:22:21All right.

00:22:22Talk.

00:22:23What'd you find?

00:22:26Mr. Sterling.

00:22:27We located the medical records from the Kentucky accident three years ago.

00:22:30It was a private rural clinic, so the files were buried in the county hospital archives.

00:22:34The doctor confirmed everything.

00:22:35A local girl happened to pass by and used a family-totted emergency method to keep you alive.

00:22:40She stopped the bleeding and stayed with you until the ambulance showed up.

00:22:42The girl's name was...

00:22:43Daisy.

00:22:45Miller.

00:22:52Hey.

00:22:53Hey.

00:22:54Stay with me.

00:22:55Come on.

00:22:55Don't do this.

00:22:57Please.

00:22:57Wake up.

00:22:58Please.

00:22:59So it really was her.

00:23:02The woman I've been looking for all these years was right there the whole time.

00:23:07Daisy.

00:23:08You 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

00:23:18to you.

00:23:19Chloe, he was 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.

00:23:41I want tomorrow night's banquet ready, and I want a birthday gift prepared for Daisy.

00:23:44Something unforgeable.

00:23:45Something the whole city will remember.

00:23:47Daisy.

00:23:48This time, I've got you.

00:23:53Happy birthday, Daisy.

00:23:55Wait, you knew it was my birthday?

00:24:00Open it.

00:24:01Go on.

00:24:07Oh, my God.

00:24:09Is this an 18th century fiddle?

00:24:12It's incredible.

00:24:15It's really beautiful.

00:24:16But I don't play anymore.

00:24:20Why?

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.

00:24:31No, that's not true.

00:24:33I didn't do anything.

00:24:37After that, everyone one back home knew.

00:24:40I was the girl who cheated to win.

00:24:43Three conservatories pulled my admission.

00:24:46Just like that, everything was gone.

00:24:50Daisy.

00:24:52I don't buy it.

00:24:53Not for a second.

00:24:56My grandfather chose you.

00:24:57He knew people.

00:24:58He wouldn't have trusted the wrong person.

00:25:00And I trust what I see.

00:25:02You're not that kind of person.

00:25:05So, yeah.

00:25:06I believe you.

00:25:15Mr. Sterling, we've got a serious problem.

00:25:21This 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.

00:25:30The orchestra she hired just lost at Lincoln Center.

00:25:33Thorne is moving to seize the property.

00:25:35She did what?

00:25:37She gambled Sterling's most valuable land over a performance bet.

00:25:42Get the car ready.

00:25:43Now.

00:25:45Let's see if Thorne really thinks they can take what's mine.

00:25:53Victoria, this is your light of Manhattan.

00:25:56I've heard better music on a farm.

00:25:59Thorne, it was just a bad performance.

00:26:01They were off today, that's all.

00:26:03Off today?

00:26:04No, this is just bad.

00:26:07Stop embarrassing Sterling Group.

00:26:09In front of real European masters,

00:26:11this so-called American music is nothing but cheap noise.

00:26:15No soul, no class.

00:26:19Let me introduce you.

00:26:21Alistair, one of the greatest musical prodigies in the world.

00:26:25One string on his violin is worth more than your entire orchestra.

00:26:31Competing with musicians at this level is honestly beneath me.

00:26:34It's not over yet.

00:26:35The wage isn't finished.

00:26:37I'm from the Vance family, a real music family.

00:26:39I'll perform myself.

00:26:40Are you serious right now?

00:26:41The score is 0-3.

00:26:42The match is already over.

00:26:44No, I'm Julian Sterling's fiance.

00:26:46I represent Sterling Group.

00:26:47If I beat Alistair, the Hudson River land stays with us.

00:26:50You want to challenge me, Miss Victoria?

00:26:53Your hands belong on a Chanel handbag, not a violin bow.

00:26:59You heard him.

00:27:00Stop humiliating yourself.

00:27:02The Hudson River property is mine now.

00:27:05Go tell Julian this.

00:27:07He didn't just lose a piece of land.

00:27:08He lost the Sterling family's pride in Manhattan.

00:27:11Manager, we lost.

00:27:13If 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.

00:27:36Julian, thank God you're here.

00:27:38Thorne's been completely unreasonable.

00:27:42Julian, the contract is clear.

00:27:44Your team already lost.

00:27:47Showing up now won't change anything.

00:27:49Thorne, 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.

00:27:57The match only ends when one side has no one left who can compete.

00:28:01Your orchestra is already finished.

00:28:04Since this manager insists she comes from a prestigious musical family,

00:28:08and insists she can compete,

00:28:11then the match isn't over.

00:28:13Exactly!

00:28:13Thorne, do you even dare face me?

00:28:19Fine.

00:28:20Since Mr. Sterling is so eager to lose in person,

00:28:23I won't stop you.

00:28:25Victoria, go ahead.

00:28:28Watch closely, Daisy.

00:28:30This is what real high-class music looks like.

00:28:33Girls who spend their lives holding a mop don't belong on a stage like this.

00:28:37If I beat Alistin,

00:28:38I'll be the one who saves Sterling Groot.

00:28:42Julian will come back to me.

00:28:43He has to.

00:29:04Now that's the Vance family standard.

00:29:06At this speed, Alistin 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.

00:29:18She's going to lose.

00:29:19Daisy, do you even know what Paganati is?

00:29:21Keep your mouth shut and stop jinxing her.

00:29:23This is hilarious.

00:29:24A janner judging a professional violinist?

00:29:27You probably can't even read sheet mazel.

00:29:29Why do you think she's going to lose?

00:29:31She's rushing.

00:29:32She's fed up to dominate the tempo,

00:29:33but 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.

00:29:38That's all you've got?

00:29:38Then let's end this.

00:29:45Don't force it!

00:29:47Manager, push through!

00:29:48Finish it!

00:30:06Yeah, I figured.

00:30:13Bravo!

00:30:14Absolutely brilliant.

00:30:16Julian, that was easily the most expensive train wreck I've ever seen.

00:30:21Julian, 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.

00:30:31This is Julian Sterling, New York's so-called undefeated legend,

00:30:35losing his own game in front of the entire city.

00:30:38Honestly, it's almost poetic.

00:30:41From today on, Julian,

00:30:42your Manhattan myth is officially over.

00:30:46Against real European masters,

00:30:49your American music sounds like background noise in a burger jump.

00:30:52Cheap, loud, disposable.

00:30:54Alistair, tell them what real music sounds like.

00:30:56With training like this,

00:30:57I'm not surprised Miss Victoria performed the way she did.

00:30:59All flash, no depth, no soul.

00:31:02Exactly.

00:31:03American music is a joke.

00:31:05You people belong playing country tunes on some dusty farm,

00:31:09not performing at Lincoln Center.

00:31:12This place isn't for amateurs with money.

00:31:14It's for people like me.

00:31:16Mr. Thorne, you really should stop talking.

00:31:25You've got to be kidding me.

00:31:27A Janner stepping up here?

00:31:29Daisy, have you lost your mind?

00:31:31Haven't we embarrassed ourselves enough already?

00:31:34Who do you think you are?

00:31:36Go back to cleaning bathrooms.

00:31:38This isn't your place.

00:31:41Mr. Sterling, Sterling Group's reputation

00:31:43shouldn't be dragged through the mud by people like him.

00:31:46And what American music is, isn't for him to decide.

00:31:48Daisy, what are you planning to do?

00:31:51Let me play.

00:32:02Miss Daisy, your violin.

00:32:07Julian!

00:32:08That soul of Amber!

00:32:09You actually gave it to this nobody?

00:32:11Seriously, manager, what a waste.

00:32:13You can dress something up all you want.

00:32:15It doesn't change what it is.

00:32:16Hold it tight, poor girl.

00:32:18Snap one string and you'll spend your whole life paying it off.

00:32:21Julian, are you actually serious?

00:32:24You're betting Prime Manhattan land on a Janner's performance?

00:32:27Thorne, listen carefully.

00:32:29I'm listening.

00:32:30Final round.

00:32:31If Daisy loses, the land is yours.

00:32:34I'll sign the transfer on the spot.

00:32:35No backing out.

00:32:36Look at her.

00:32:37She's about to pass out from fear.

00:32:43Daisy, look at me.

00:32:45Don't be afraid.

00:32:46I trust you.

00:32:52Hey.

00:32:53What now?

00:32:54You here to beg?

00:32:55Let's change the rules.

00:32:56Both orchestras play.

00:32:57Together.

00:32:57If you want to embarrass yourself even more, be my guest.

00:33:06Guys.

00:33:07Drop the sheet, Nozick.

00:33:08Wait, what?

00:33:10Follow my lead.

00:33:11Play your anger.

00:33:12Let it all out through the strings.

00:33:13What was that?

00:33:28What the hell is this?

00:33:32Is that real?

00:33:37Hey, move with it.

00:33:38Don't just stand there like statues.

00:33:52This is insane.

00:33:55That's not even real music.

00:33:57No.

00:33:58That's exactly what real music sounds like.

00:34:20I did it.

00:34:34Sir?

00:34:35Miss Daisy, I owe you an apology.

00:34:38I was wrong about you.

00:34:39Your music has life in it.

00:34:42Alistair!

00:34:43What the hell are you doing?

00:34:44You're just going to hand her the win?

00:34:46Mr. Thorne, art isn't a business deal.

00:34:49There's no winning or losing.

00:34:50Only truth.

00:34:51And today, her music spoke louder than mine.

00:34:55I accept.

00:34:56Well, Thorne, looks like the deal stands.

00:34:59That land?

00:35:00You're not getting anywhere near it.

00:35:02Julian, you really think this is over?

00:35:04For today?

00:35:05Yeah, it is.

00:35:07We're leaving.

00:35:09No.

00:35:10This can't be real.

00:35:11How could someone like her be a genius?

00:35:23Ladies and gentlemen, this is Sterling Group's Pride.

00:35:32Thank you, Julian.

00:35:34Thank you, Julian.

00:35:34No.

00:35:36You saved us today.

00:35:38You're the hero here.

00:35:45Victoria, you used the company seal without authorization and signed a private betting agreement.

00:35:50If Daisy hadn't stepped in, Sterling Group would have lost a billion dollars overnight.

00:35:55Julian, I was trying to help you take down Thorne.

00:35:59No.

00:36:00You were trying to help yourself.

00:36:03Effective immediately, you're terminated.

00:36:04Go to HR and pick up your severance package.

00:36:17I have an announcement.

00:36:19Victoria has been terminated for serious misconduct.

00:36:22The position of marketing director is now vacant.

00:36:26Mr. Sterling, I believe Ms. Daisy proved her leadership and crisis management skills at Lincoln Center.

00:36:30She's the strongest candidate for this role.

00:36:32I second that.

00:36:33Daisy would be perfect for it.

00:36:34Me?

00:36:35No, I can't.

00:36:36I'm just a janitor.

00:36:37I wouldn't even know where to begin.

00:36:39$50,000 a month.

00:36:41Wait.

00:36:42Did you just say $50,000?

00:36:46Base salary.

00:36:47$50,000 a month?

00:36:49Dad's medical treater would finally be covered.

00:36:52Mr. Sterling?

00:36:54I can do this.

00:36:56I'm in.

00:37:03Daisy, look at this place.

00:37:04This is literally the fanciest hotel in New York.

00:37:07Don't you think this is a little over the top?

00:37:09I feel like everyone's staring at me.

00:37:10Of course they are.

00:37:11The CEO threw this whole celebration just for you.

00:37:14Half the company's dying of jealousy right now.

00:37:16Tonight, you're the queen of Manhattan.

00:37:19Daisy, congratulations.

00:37:20Youngest marketing manager in 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.

00:37:29A little promotion gift.

00:37:30I know things are different now, but I just wanted to show you how proud I am of you.

00:37:35Caleb, they're beautiful, but I really can't accept something this expensive.

00:37:41So what?

00:37:41Now that you're a big shop manager, you 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.

00:37:50Honestly, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't even be standing here tonight.

00:37:53I'd still be back in Tucky, stressing over farm bills and wondering how to make ends meet.

00:37:57Of course, Daisy.

00:38:02Who is he?

00:38:03Head of security.

00:38:04Caleb, he's from the same hometown as Miss Daisy.

00:38:07Same hometown?

00:38:08They seem pretty close.

00:38:26Daisy, what's up with the boss tonight?

00:38:28He looks like he's in a terrible mood.

00:38:30Your guess is as good as mine.

00:38:31Guys 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?

00:38:42Oh, it's you.

00:38:44Mr. Ice Cold CEO.

00:38:46Wait, hold on.

00:38:49Wow.

00:38:50Julian, are these actually real?

00:38:53Oh, wow.

00:38:54These are nice.

00:38:55Daisy, you really shouldn't be doing this.

00:38:57Just let me check again.

00:38:59One more time, please.

00:39:06Please.

00:39:15Daisy, you asked for this.

00:39:39Okay, I'm fine.

00:39:40I'm fine.

00:39:45Daisy?

00:39:45Daisy, you're up already?

00:39:47Yeah.

00:39:48I sobered up pretty early and headed home.

00:39:49Then I realized I left something here, so I came back to grab it.

00:39:52You went home?

00:39:53That makes sense.

00:39:54I brought you soup last night and knocked on your door forever, but no one answered.

00:39:58Yeah.

00:40:01Oh, damn it.

00:40:03What the hell happened last night?

00:40:05Sir, the car is ready for your trip to the office.

00:40:08Last night, who brought me back here?

00:40:11The celebration got pretty chaotic, sir.

00:40:13I was handling the aftermath with the hotel staff and 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.

00:40:23I don't want any rumors spreading around the company.

00:40:25Understood, sir.

00:40:28Sir, this appears to belong to a lady.

00:40:34An earring.

00:40:40Daisy, 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.

00:40:59What about Miss Daisy?

00:41:00Should we inform her you're leaving?

00:41:02She stays in New York.

00:41:03She just made manager.

00:41:04Time to prove she earned the title.

00:41:10Daisy, that's the third time this week.

00:41:12Your stomach's been acting up non-stop.

00:41:14Are 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.

00:41:27Don't tell me you're pregnant or something.

00:41:35Oh God, I'm pregnant.

00:41:38Would he even want you?

00:41:40Would he even care?

00:41:44Manager Daisy, the CEO has landed back in New York.

00:41:47He's back?

00:41:49Yes, ma'am.

00:41:50He's in his top floor office now, and he wants you there immediately.

00:41:56Manager Daisy,

00:41:57It's been a month.

00:41:59You look different.

00:42:04I've just been adjusting to the new position, sir.

00:42:07Still getting used to everything.

00:42:09The 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.

00:42:30Sir, I read something in the news recently.

00:42:33It got me thinking.

00:42:34Go ahead.

00:42:35I'm listening.

00:42:36A woman got pregnant by a billionaire by accident.

00:42:39No strings attached, just a one-night thing.

00:42:43What do you think a man like that would do?

00:42:46Would he step up?

00:42:49Or walk away?

00:42:51Daisy,

00:42:52I've seen that story more times than I can count.

00:42:55Women trying to trap rich men with a baby,

00:42:58hoping for a payout,

00:42:59a title,

00:43:01a spot in their lives.

00:43:05It's predictable.

00:43:06Pathetic, even.

00:43:08And if it were real?

00:43:09If it wasn't a trap?

00:43:11If it was just an accident?

00:43:13What would you do?

00:43:14Be honest.

00:43:16Listen to me.

00:43:17There's no place in my life for accidents.

00:43:20No room for mistakes.

00:43:21No time for distractions.

00:43:23Unless it's with the woman I love.

00:43:26Someone I chose.

00:43:28Someone 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 come into it immediately.

00:43:40I wouldn't let it go further at all.

00:43:43I'd make sure it never became a problem.

00:43:46The woman he loves,

00:43:48that's the only one who matters to him.

00:43:50To him,

00:43:51you're just an accident.

00:43:53A mistake he'd erase without a second thought.

00:43:56But you're not a mistake.

00:43:58Not to me.

00:44:00It's okay, baby.

00:44:02I won't let him find out.

00:44:03I'll protect you no matter what.

00:44:05Even if it means hiding this from her forever.

00:44:11Daisy,

00:44:12you recognize this, don't you?

00:44:14Yes.

00:44:20Someone left it in my bed after the celebration.

00:44:24Next morning,

00:44:25she was gone before sunrise.

00:44:28Vanished without a word,

00:44:30like she was never there.

00:44:31Tell me, Daisy,

00:44:33why leave in such a hurry?

00:44:34Afraid of what might happen if you stayed?

00:44:37Sir,

00:44:38I think you've got the wrong person.

00:44:41Do I?

00:44:42Because your reaction says otherwise.

00:44:44I drank too much that night.

00:44:46Chloe took me home,

00:44:47she can tell you that.

00:44:48And the earring?

00:44:50Sure,

00:44:51it looks similar,

00:44:52but pieces like that are a dime a dozen in New York.

00:44:56It could belong to anyone.

00:44:59Sounds like you had quite a night, sir.

00:45:01Not even knowing who you woke up next to.

00:45:03Must be nice.

00:45:06If there's nothing else,

00:45:08I should get back to work.

00:45:09My team is waiting for me.

00:45:17Damn it!

00:45:20Sir?

00:45:21Is everything alright?

00:45:23Marcus.

00:45:24Find her.

00:45:25Find who, sir?

00:45:26Pull every security feed from the celebration night.

00:45:29Every hallway,

00:45:30every elevator,

00:45:31every entrance and exit in the hotel.

00:45:32I want to see every person who came near my school.

00:45:36Check all hotel access logs, too.

00:45:38Who used key cards,

00:45:39who was signed in as a guest,

00:45:41who had access to the presidential floor.

00:45:44If it wasn't Daisy,

00:45:46then someone planned this.

00:45:48Someone snuck into my room,

00:45:50left that earring,

00:45:51and vanished.

00:45:52Trying to mess with me,

00:45:53or worse,

00:45:54find the woman who got into my room.

00:45:57Find her,

00:45:58and don't stop until you do.

00:45:59And when you do,

00:46:02make sure she regrets ever crossing me.

00:46:05Make sure she pays for playing games with me.

00:46:07Understood, sir.

00:46:08I'll start immediately.

00:46:14Sir,

00:46:15Miss Daisy didn't look too good when she left just now.

00:46:18She seemed tense,

00:46:19pale even.

00:46:20Should we maybe talk to her?

00:46:22Clear things up before this gets any more complicated?

00:46:25Clear up what?

00:46:26That I don't even know who the woman was in my bed that night?

00:46:29I just mean,

00:46:30if you keep investigating this quietly,

00:46:33she might get the wrong idea.

00:46:35Listen to me, Marcus.

00:46:36Daisy cannot find out about this investigation.

00:46:39Not yet.

00:46:40But sir,

00:46:41secrets like this don't stay hidden forever.

00:46:42Once I review all the surveillance from that night,

00:46:45and 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,

00:46:53watch what you say.

00:46:54Don't mention the investigation to anyone.

00:46:57Yes, sir.

00:46:57I won't say a word.

00:46:59Miss Victoria,

00:47:01please don't upset yourself.

00:47:02Mr. Julian must have been fooled by that country girl,

00:47:05Daisy.

00:47:06She's just a lucky nobody.

00:47:07He'll come to his senses sooner or later,

00:47:09and regret pushing you away.

00:47:12Tiffany,

00:47:13how long have you been working with me?

00:47:15How long have you been by my side?

00:47:17Almost three years now,

00:47:18Miss Victoria.

00:47:19I've always thought you were smarter than Daisy.

00:47:21Sharper,

00:47:22more capable,

00:47:23and far more refined.

00:47:24You deserve better than being stuck as a low-level assistant.

00:47:27You're too kind,

00:47:27Miss Victoria.

00:47:28I just try to do my best.

00:47:30Someone like Daisy doesn't belong in that manager's office.

00:47:33She's a farm girl with no class,

00:47:35no connections,

00:47:36no 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?

00:47:48If you can push Daisy out of Sterling Group,

00:47:50make her disappear from Manhattan,

00:47:52make 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.

00:48:01You really mean that?

00:48:02We're the same kind of people, Tiffany.

00:48:05You and me,

00:48:06we 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.

00:48:15I'll make sure she crashes hard on the way down.

00:48:18Good.

00:48:18She's a stain on Sterling Group

00:48:20and on Julian.

00:48:24Daisy,

00:48:25let's see how long you can stay proud.

00:48:34Daisy,

00:48:35you need to see this.

00:48:36The company forum is blowing up.

00:48:38People are saying the CEO is secretly married

00:48:40and his wife is some mysterious high society woman from Europe.

00:48:45Office gossip.

00:48:47You 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,

00:48:52loaded.

00:48:53What kind of woman do you think could actually lock him down?

00:48:56Come on, Daisy.

00:48:57You've been around him a lot lately,

00:48:58way more than anyone else.

00:49:00You really haven't noticed anything?

00:49:02Any little clues?

00:49:04A ring?

00:49:05A secret call?

00:49:06Something?

00:49:06I focus on work,

00:49:08nothing else.

00:49:08The CEO's personal life isn't any of my business.

00:49:11Yeah, figures.

00:49:13People like him live in a whole different world from us.

00:49:15We can only guess.

00:49:19Well, look who it is.

00:49:21Our so-called violin genius,

00:49:23turned marketing manager,

00:49:24turned whatever you're trying to be now.

00:49:27Still making your own coffee even after becoming a manager?

00:49:31What's wrong?

00:49:32Miss being the janitor already?

00:49:34Miss scrubbing floors and cleaning after everyone else?

00:49:38If you spent half this energy on your work

00:49:40instead of running your mouth,

00:49:42last quarter's reports wouldn't be such a disaster.

00:49:44You might actually be useful around here.

00:49:48Daisy,

00:49:49playing some ordinary songs in a busy station

00:49:51doesn't make you special.

00:49:53Girls like you,

00:49:54ambitious,

00:49:55without background or connections,

00:49:57trying to get close to the CEO

00:49:58just to move up faster,

00:50:00climb into his bed,

00:50:01sounds like something you'd know more about than me.

00:50:03You've been practically drooling over him

00:50:06since you started working here.

00:50:08Say that again!

00:50:09I dare you!

00:50:10Victoria's gone.

00:50:11Fired, remember?

00:50:12Now you're just a stray dog

00:50:14barking 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

00:50:21if you keep wasting company time on this.

00:50:24You'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.

00:50:33The one who saved him when he was a kid.

00:50:35She's the only person he'll ever love.

00:50:37The only one who matters.

00:50:39You don't even register.

00:50:41To him,

00:50:42you're nothing.

00:50:44Not even close.

00:50:45What the hell is going on in here?

00:50:56Tiffany,

00:50:57did Sterling Group hire you

00:50:58to start fights in the break room?

00:50:59To harass your superiors?

00:51:01Mr. Julian,

00:51:02I was just,

00:51:02I was just discussing work with Manager Daisy.

00:51:04It wasn't a fight, I swear.

00:51:06Discussing work?

00:51:07Is that what you call it?

00:51:09Marcus.

00:51:11Yes, sir.

00:51:12Cut her entire bonus for this month.

00:51:14No exceptions.

00:51:15And if I hear this kind of talk again,

00:51:16if I see you so much as look at Daisy the wrong way,

00:51:19she's done here.

00:51:20Fired.

00:51:21No second chances.

00:51:22Understood?

00:51:22Yes, sir.

00:51:24I understand.

00:51:26I'm sorry.

00:51:38This 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?

00:51:44Cinderella 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.

00:51:57Looks like fate just handed me an opportunity.

00:51:59Mrs. Sterling.

00:52:01That position is mine.

00:52:09Oh.

00:52:12Stop.

00:52:13Mr. Julian?

00:52:14Did you call me?

00:52:16I'm so sorry.

00:52:17I dropped these.

00:52:17I wasn't paying attention.

00:52:19That earring.

00:52:20Where did you get it?

00:52:22It was a gift.

00:52:23From some very important to me.

00:52:26Someone I'll never forget.

00:52:31Out.

00:52:34Mr. Julian, I don't understand.

00:52:37It's me.

00:52:52Marcus, you're sure about this?

00:52:54The woman who got into my room that night was really her?

00:52:58The earring matches exactly, sir.

00:53:00It's identical to the one we found in your suite.

00:53:01There's no other reasonable explanation.

00:53:02Figures.

00:53:03A woman like that, desperate, greedy, clawing for power,

00:53:05would do anything to climb the corporate ladder to lie to someone like me.

00:53:08Cheap ambition only to wear my base that a single night of carelessness would be enough to trap me?

00:53:11What a joke.

00:53:12Pathetic, really.

00:53:13Listen carefully, Marcus.

00:53:14Contact the best private hospital in the city.

00:53:16Make the arrangements.

00:53:17No questions asked.

00:53:18If she's pregnant, if she's stupid enough to try that tired, cheap trick,

00:53:22I want it handled.

00:53:22Immediately.

00:53:23No delays, no excuses.

00:53:25Sir, if she asks for compensation, if she demands a settlement,

00:53:27then give her the money.

00:53:28Write whatever check she wants.

00:53:29Ten thousand, a hundred thousand more.

00:53:31Just get her out of New York.

00:53:32Get her as far away from me as possible and make sure she never comes back.

00:53:35I don't want it kept.

00:53:37Not for a second.

00:53:38Understood?

00:53:40Cheap.

00:53:41Dirty.

00:53:43Disposable.

00:53:44A gold-digging liar.

00:53:46So this is what I am to you.

00:53:49Just someone you can use for one night, then erase whenever you want.

00:53:59I won't let you touch him.

00:54:02I won't let you hurt my baby.

00:54:09Well, well, Manager Daisy.

00:54:11You look like you've seen a ghost.

00:54:15Mr. Julian just called me into his office.

00:54:17Asked me a lot of very personal questions.

00:54:20Looks like that manager title of yours is about to go to someone with a little more value.

00:54:24Someone who actually matters to the CEO.

00:54:27See this?

00:54:27This is what the boss has been looking for.

00:54:29The clue to the woman from that night.

00:54:31Daisy, you probably wouldn't even get close to jewelry like this in your lifetime.

00:54:34You're just a farm girl after all.

00:54:36Tiffany, you really think a fake piece of jewelry is going to win you his heart?

00:54:40You have no idea what kind of abyss you're walking into.

00:54:42Julian isn't someone you can manipulate.

00:54:44Abyss?

00:54:45Still better than being a person like you.

00:54:47Someone 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.

00:54:51When I become Mrs. Sterling, I'll personally send you back to your little Kentucky farm to feed pigs.

00:54:56You'll never set foot in Manhattan again.

00:54:58Mrs. Sterling.

00:55:00Good luck with that.

00:55:01Hope you keep smiling this confidently when you realize what you've gotten yourself into.

00:55:08So Julian got the wrong person.

00:55:10He thinks Tiffany was the one in his room that night.

00:55:12The one who left the earring.

00:55:14The one he's been searching for.

00:55:15So that's the truth.

00:55:17Because he thinks it's Tiffany's baby.

00:55:19He can destroy it without even blinking.

00:55:21In his world, people like us don't matter.

00:55:24Not even our lives.

00:55:26Nothing is more important than the Sterling name than his pride.

00:55:32Tiffany, this is the last time I'm asking.

00:55:35August 11, the night of the company celebration.

00:55:38Was it you in my hotel room?

00:55:39Yes, Mr. Julian.

00:55:41It was me.

00:55:41I was so nervous that night.

00:55:42I left before you woke up because I thought you might not remember me or that you'd regret it.

00:55:46Then tell me something.

00:55:48Something only the woman from that night would know.

00:55:50What do you remember about me that night?

00:55:52Anything specific?

00:55:55I, uh, you're in great shape.

00:55:57Strong.

00:55:58Very, very charming.

00:55:59I was so overwhelmed by you.

00:56:02You really like this perfume.

00:56:07The floral one.

00:56:09Chlorine, clying, overbearing.

00:56:13It makes me sick.

00:56:15Mr. Julian, it's the latest limited edition.

00:56:17That room didn't smell like this.

00:56:19The woman from that night smelled like jasmine.

00:56:21Soft, subtle, nothing like this overdone garbage.

00:56:25Look at it.

00:56:26Really look.

00:56:27Top jewelry expert already checked it.

00:56:29Hand cut.

00:56:29One of a kind.

00:56:30South African deep sea diamond.

00:56:35And yours?

00:56:37Cheap motionite.

00:56:38Fake.

00:56:39Not even the same material.

00:56:42You thought this would fool me?

00:56:44Mr. Julian, please.

00:56:45I was wrong.

00:56:46I'm so sorry.

00:56:47It wasn't my idea.

00:56:48It was Victoria.

00:56:49She told me to do it.

00:56:51Please.

00:56:51Give me another chance.

00:56:53I'll do anything.

00:56:54You tried to get into my bed.

00:56:56Lied to my face.

00:56:58And play me like an idiot.

00:57:00That takes guts.

00:57:01I'll give you that.

00:57:03Marcus.

00:57:04Yes, sir.

00:57:05Call every headhunter in New York.

00:57:07Every investment firm.

00:57:09Every corporate recruiter.

00:57:10Every agency.

00:57:11Even bars and clubs.

00:57:13Diners.

00:57:14Anywhere that hires people.

00:57:17No!

00:57:17Mr. Julian!

00:57:19Please!

00:57:20You can't do this to me!

00:57:21I have nowhere to go!

00:57:23If it wasn't her,

00:57:25then where the hell is the woman from that night?

00:57:28Who was she?

00:57:29And why did she leave?

00:57:32Mr. Julian, please.

00:57:35Don't blacklist me.

00:57:36I'm begging you.

00:57:40Marcus.

00:57:41Get her out of here.

00:57:42I don't want to see her anywhere in this building again.

00:57:56That earring.

00:57:57Why does Mr. Julian have it?

00:58:06Daisy.

00:58:07Hey.

00:58:08What's wrong?

00:58:08You look really pale.

00:58:09I'm okay, Caleb.

00:58:10I just didn't sleep much last night.

00:58:12Daisy.

00:58:13The earrings I gave you.

00:58:14Did you lose one?

00:58:14I just saw it in the CEO's office.

00:58:17He really had it?

00:58:18That pair was custom made.

00:58:19Only one in New York.

00:58:20Took me six months of savings to get it.

00:58:21Why would Mr. Julian have it?

00:58:22Is he giving you trouble?

00:58:23If she's pregnant, handle it immediately.

00:58:25I'm sorry, Caleb.

00:58:26I lost it.

00:58:27I really didn't mean to.

00:58:29Hey.

00:58:30It's okay.

00:58:31It's just an earring.

00:58:32Don't cry.

00:58:34As long as you're safe,

00:58:35that's all that matters.

00:58:39Caleb.

00:58:41Who the hell do you think you are?

00:58:50Julian!

00:58:51Have you lost it?

00:58:52Let go of me!

00:58:53Daisy.

00:58:54Have I been too easy on you?

00:58:55Hugging a security guard in the lobby in front of the entire company?

00:58:58Caleb is not a security guard.

00:59:00He's family.

00:59:00Mr. Sterling, you're crossing the line.

00:59:02Family.

00:59:03Since when does family hold each other like that?

00:59:05Don't forget who you are, Daisy.

00:59:06You're Mrs. Sterling.

00:59:07My wife.

00:59:09Contract wife.

00:59:10That's all I am.

00:59:11So show some boundaries, Julian.

00:59:19Mr. Caleb, we should talk.

00:59:21Daisy isn't someone you should be pursuing.

00:59:23I know what you're implying.

00:59:25Yeah.

00:59:25I like Daisy.

00:59:27Always have.

00:59:27Since we were kids.

00:59:28Then keep your distance.

00:59:30She only sees me as a brother.

00:59:33She's suffered enough since coming to New York.

00:59:35I 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,

00:59:46I won't let it happen.

00:59:47Hold on.

00:59:48Earrings?

00:59:49What earrings?

00:59:52Mr. Sterling!

00:59:54We found something!

00:59:56Get out.

00:59:58The earring.

00:59:59It 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?

01:00:21Daisy.

01:00:22Are you still going to deny it?

01:00:24I don't know what you mean.

01:00:26Caleb told me.

01:00:27Custom made.

01:00:28One pair in the whole city.

01:00:29August 11th.

01:00:30The woman in my room.

01:00:31That was you.

01:00:32It's always been you.

01:00:33Isn't it?

01:00:34I thought it was just a mistake.

01:00:36It didn't have to mean anything.

01:00:37Then why'd you run?

01:00:38Why let me go crazy looking for you and not say a word?

01:00:41Daisy.

01:00:42I've been searching for you this whole time.

01:00:44The woman I love.

01:00:46It'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.

01:00:53Don't.

01:00:53I can't do this.

01:00:54I'm a mess right now.

01:00:56You say you love me.

01:00:57But do you even know what you were looking for?

01:00:59If I was just some ordinary girl.

01:01:01Or worse.

01:01:01A problem.

01:01:02Would you still feel this way?

01:01:03Daisy.

01:01:03What are you talking about?

01:01:05You're you.

01:01:05My wife.

01:01:06That's all that matters.

01:01:07No.

01:01:08I don't buy it.

01:01:10This.

01:01:10Whatever this is.

01:01:11It's too fast.

01:01:12It 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.

01:01:31Do you actually love me?

01:01:33Or is this just because of that night?

01:01:36Daisy.

01:01:36Look at me.

01:01:36From the moment you walked into my life, there's been no one else.

01:01:40Not before.

01:01:42Not now.

01:01:42Not ever.

01:01:46I love you.

01:01:49Not out of obligation.

01:01:51Not because of some deal.

01:01:53Just because you're you.

01:01:56Mr. Sterling.

01:01:57I was just dropping off some files.

01:01:59Yeah.

01:01:59Files.

01:02:00Right.

01:02:00We were just checking in on something work related.

01:02:04I pay you to do your jobs.

01:02:05Not to lurk outside my office.

01:02:07Sterling.

01:02:08We'll go.

01:02:08Right now.

01:02:09Don't let it happen again.

01:02:10If I hear one word, one rumor about what goes on in here, you can collect your final

01:02:14paycheck from finance.

01:02:18Did you hear that?

01:02:20He said Daisy's the only one for him.

01:02:22That 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.

01:02:32Please.

01:02:32A nobody like her?

01:02:34She didn't get there by accident.

01:02:35Seriously?

01:02:36That's enough.

01:02:37You've seen how hard Daisy works.

01:02:39She earned her spot.

01:02:41Chloe, 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.

01:02:49If Daisy is Mrs. Sterling, then yeah, she deserves it.

01:02:53Daisy, I don't know what's really going on with you and Mr. Sterling, but I'm on your

01:02:58side.

01:02:58Always.

01:03:01Oh my god, did you hear?

01:03:03Mr. Sterling just confessed in his office.

01:03:05You're kidding.

01:03:06Then Daisy, she has to be the secret Mrs. Sterling.

01:03:08She really kept that under wraps.

01:03:09And Victoria, acting like she owned the place before, turns out she just made a fool of

01:03:13herself.

01:03:13Daisy, so it really is you.

01:03:16You actually took what's mine.

01:03:20Daisy, 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

01:03:27Mrs. Sterling?

01:03:28Victoria, 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.

01:03:42It's honestly pathetic.

01:03:45What did you just say?

01:03:46You had everything.

01:03:47Status, looks, talent.

01:03:50Julian respected you.

01:03:51Gave you more than enough.

01:03:53Shut up!

01:03:54And what did you do with it?

01:03:56You threw it all away over a man who doesn't even love you.

01:03:59Shut up!

01:04:00Who do you think you are?

01:04:01I'm not trying to teach you anything.

01:04:03That position you're so obsessed with?

01:04:06Once the divorce is finalized, it's yours.

01:04:09I'll walk away.

01:04:11I don't fight other women over a man.

01:04:14Especially not one who doesn't love you.

01:04:16Once you're gone, Julian will come back to me!

01:04:19Even if you take something that was never yours?

01:04:22Taste it easily around thou instead, me.

01:04:24How long do you think you can keep it?

01:04:28A Mrs. Sterling built on schemes?

01:04:30You really think you can hold on to that?

01:04:32You're shameless!

01:04:34I'll never let you get away with this!

01:04:39Daisy?

01:04:40Daisy, where are you?

01:04:41So what if you won that little argument?

01:04:43To Julian, you'll always be the cunning, bitter one.

01:04:47What are you doing?

01:04:49Watch and learn.

01:04:50This is how you play it right.

01:04:58Victoria!

01:05:01Julian, it hurts.

01:05:02It hurts so bad.

01:05:04Please, help me.

01:05:06Julian, it wasn't me!

01:05:08She jumped!

01:05:09I didn't push her, I swear!

01:05:11Just listen to me!

01:05:13Don't talk.

01:05:14Just stay with me.

01:05:15I've got you.

01:05:17I'm taking you to the hospital.

01:05:18Julian!

01:05:19I didn't!

01:05:23Julian.

01:05:24So this is it?

01:05:26This is your no one else?

01:05:29Mr. Sterling, I'm afraid the situation isn't great.

01:05:33Miss Victoria has severe nerve damage in her right arm.

01:05:36She'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.

01:05:45It's my whole life.

01:05:46It's all gone.

01:05:47What am I supposed to do now?

01:05:49No, no, no, my hand.

01:05:55Victoria, hey, calm down.

01:05:57I'll find the best specialist out there.

01:05:59We'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!

01:06:05Daisy ruined me!

01:06:06She pushed me!

01:06:07She knew I'm a violinist!

01:06:09She wanted to destroy my hands!

01:06:11I'll say it one last time.

01:06:12I didn't push her.

01:06:13Daisy, stop.

01:06:15Look at the situation.

01:06:17Her arm's broken.

01:06:18Her career's over.

01:06:20So what?

01:06:21Now I'm the villain in your story?

01:06:23Victoria ended up like this because of us.

01:06:25Daisy, I'm asking you just apologize.

01:06:30Apologize?

01:06:31Julian, 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.

01:06:41I'm sorry.

01:06:42On Daisy's behalf.

01:06:43And I'll take full responsibility for what happens next.

01:06:45Take responsibility.

01:06:47Fine, Julian.

01:06:49Then spend the rest of your life doing exactly that.

01:06:57Mom, 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, stop.

01:07:11We're not done talking.

01:07:13About what?

01:07:14How you're going to take care of your violinist?

01:07:15I'm trying to fix this.

01:07:17Victoria's not in a good place.

01:07:19I can't just leave her like that.

01:07:20Wow.

01:07:21Look at you.

01:07:22Mr. Responsible.

01:07:27Divorce papers.

01:07:29Signed.

01:07:29And a check.

01:07:30One hundred thousand.

01:07:32Divorce papers?

01:07:33Daisy, what are you doing?

01:07:35That money?

01:07:36I earned every cent at Sterling.

01:07:38It's clean.

01:07:39What I owed you, consider it settled.

01:07:42From now on, I don't owe you anything.

01:07:45Not my life.

01:07:46Not my heart.

01:07:49When did you do this?

01:07:50Piece by piece.

01:07:52When you chose to doubt me.

01:07:54For her.

01:07:55When you didn't even hesitate to carry her away.

01:08:00When you asked me to apologize to that psycho.

01:08:05Daisy, get out.

01:08:07Let's go back to the office and talk this through.

01:08:09It's not what you think.

01:08:15Daisy.

01:08:19Mr. Sterling.

01:08:20Mr. Sterling, we got it.

01:08:23Hidden cam in the stairwell.

01:08:25Watch this.

01:08:25Victoria grabs Daisy's hand.

01:08:27Then throws herself backward.

01:08:28On purpose.

01:08:29She did that to herself?

01:08:31She gambled her own hand?

01:08:33Just to set Daisy up?

01:08:34Yeah.

01:08:35And the doctor came clean.

01:08:36She paid him off.

01:08:37It's not serious.

01:08:38Just a sprain.

01:08:39Dammit!

01:08:40I actually believed her.

01:08:42Where's Daisy?

01:08:43Where is she?

01:08:43We traced her ride.

01:08:44She's heading to JFK.

01:08:49Come on, pick up!

01:08:51Daisy, please!

01:08:52Just answer me!

01:08:57Sir, stop.

01:09:00Which gate?

01:09:01Tell me where she is!

01:09:02The flight to her hometown left ten minutes ago.

01:09:09I lost her.

01:09:11I'm the one who drove her away.

01:09:19Sir, we've got something.

01:09:22You find her?

01:09:24She didn't board.

01:09:25I checked every flight to Kentucky last night.

01:09:27She had a ticket, but never made it to the gate.

01:09:29Didn't board.

01:09:31So she's not even going home.

01:09:32We don't know why yet.

01:09:34But I've got people checking all the major transit hops.

01:09:40I'm coming.

01:09:45Mr. Sterling!

01:09:47Morning!

01:09:47Chloe, you're 30 minutes late.

01:09:49I had a reason.

01:09:50I was with Daisy at the airport last night.

01:09:52We were there forever.

01:09:52I barely slept.

01:09:54You were with her?

01:09:57Where is she?

01:09:59Marcus said she didn't board.

01:10:00Why?

01:10:01Don't even ask.

01:10:02She passed out in the terminal.

01:10:04Couldn't wake her.

01:10:05By 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.

01:10:12Said she'd rather send the money home.

01:10:16So, she's probably at the Greyhound station by now.

01:10:19I'm trying to switch to a bus.

01:10:21Greyhound station.

01:10:22Move.

01:10:23Yes, sir.

01:10:28Did he just get a second wind or something?

01:10:37Now arriving at gate 6, New York.

01:10:47Julian?

01:10:48Julian?

01:10:48You really think you can just leave like that?

01:10:53Let go, Julian.

01:10:55I already signed the divorce papers.

01:10:58We're done.

01:11:01Done?

01:11:02Daisy, until I sign those papers, you're still Mrs. Sterling.

01:11:06No signature from me.

01:11:08No divorce.

01:11:09No resignation.

01:11:11None of it goes through.

01:11:13Hey, take it somewhere else.

01:11:15You're holding everyone up.

01:11:16Are you getting on or not?

01:11:16We don't have all day.

01:11:18Move.

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.

01:11:32Everyone on this bus, I'm covering your tickets.

01:11:34And you each get an extra hundred bucks.

01:11:39No way.

01:11:40Seriously?

01:11:40I can't stay.

01:11:42One condition.

01:11:43She doesn't get on this bus.

01:11:45Not a problem, sir.

01:11:46Not a problem at all.

01:11:48Sorry, miss.

01:11:49Bus is out of service.

01:11:50You'll have to step back.

01:11:51Julian, this is ridiculous.

01:11:55You can't just throw money around and control everything.

01:11:59Watch me.

01:12:00So what's it going to be, Daisy?

01:12:04You coming back with me?

01:12:06Or do I carry you out of here myself?

01:12:10You are unbelievable.

01:12:12If that's what it takes to keep you here, I'll take it.

01:12:18Daisy, I think you're forgetting something you signed when you joined the company.

01:12:21What are you talking about?

01:12:23Clause 12.

01:12:24If a senior manager quits without completing a proper handover,

01:12:27they owe ten times their total salary from the past three years.

01:12:30That's five million dollars.

01:12:32So are you cutting a check or coming back to work?

01:12:35Five million?

01:12:37Julian, that's ridiculous.

01:12:38This 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.

01:12:50Perfect timing.

01:12:51The annual team retreat still needs someone to run it.

01:12:53I'm not doing it.

01:12:55Find someone else.

01:12:56It's in the Hamptons.

01:12:58The one thing everyone's been looking forward to all year.

01:13:00If you screw this up or try to run again,

01:13:03that 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.

01:13:13Oh my god, the Hamptons?

01:13:15That's luxury central.

01:13:16Daisy, you have to nail this.

01:13:18Our entire company trip is riding on you.

01:13:20But seriously, you should have seen the boss that day.

01:13:23When he found out you missed your flight and were at the bus station,

01:13:25that look on his face, wow.

01:13:27He 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.

01:13:36I'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.

01:13:42You're reading too much into it.

01:13:44Sure, sure.

01:13:45Company interests.

01:13:46Well then, manager Daisy,

01:13:47we're all counting on you to take us to the Hamptons and treat us right.

01:13:57Daisy, look at this.

01:13:58This is literally like something out of a movie.

01:14:00The boss really went all in this time.

01:14:02I swear, this feels unreal.

01:14:04Yeah, it's gorgeous.

01:14:08All right, everyone.

01:14:10Grab your keys based on your assigned pairs.

01:14:12Two per room.

01:14:13Drop your bags and meet back in the lobby in 30 minutes.

01:14:18Daisy, come on.

01:14:19Second floor, garden view.

01:14:22Uh, Daisy, sorry.

01:14:23There's been a bit of a system glitch.

01:14:25Room 204 is already full.

01:14:26Chloe, you'll need to switch rooms.

01:14:28That doesn't make any sense.

01:14:29We're all accounted for.

01:14:30How is it full?

01:14:31So where am I staying?

01:14:32Well, since you're leading the retreat,

01:14:33Mr. Sterling figured you might need flexibility.

01:14:34He comes up, he arranged,

01:14:35so he an executive suite for you.

01:14:37Top floor.

01:14:37Wait, seriously?

01:14:39The top floor suite?

01:14:40Marcus, you sure this is a system glitch?

01:14:44100%.

01:14:45Total system issue.

01:14:46Room 501.

01:14:48Best view in the whole place.

01:14:52So, how do you like this system glitch?

01:14:55Julian, I knew this was you.

01:14:56I'm switching rooms, even if I have to sleep on a couch.

01:14:58Not happening.

01:14:59Didn't Marcus tell you?

01:15:00Every room's taken.

01:15:01Even the attic's full.

01:15:02House Kemper's using it.

01:15:03This is insane.

01:15:04You can't just trap me here.

01:15:05It's called a couple's retreat.

01:15:07Don't forget, you're still an employee at Sterling Group.

01:15:10And legally, still my wife.

01:15:12While we're in the Hamptons, you stay with me.

01:15:14You better hope nothing goes wrong these next few days, Julian.

01:15:20Okay, just sitting around eating is boring.

01:15:22Let's play a little game.

01:15:23How about it?

01:15:24Pair up, and the losers get a penalty.

01:15:26Woo!

01:15:29Oh, no, you don't.

01:15:30You're not leaving.

01:15:31All right, who wants to team up with Daisy?

01:15:47Whoa, whoa.

01:15:50I've got her.

01:15:52Julian, are you serious?

01:15:54Everyone's watching.

01:15:55I'm setting the tone.

01:15:56Don't bail on me now.

01:16:17Oh, my God, yes!

01:16:19That's what I'm talking about!

01:16:27Bring out the priciest wine, my treat, tonight.

01:16:30Yeah!

01:16:38Oh, my God!

01:16:39That was everything!

01:16:40This is blowing up for sure!

01:16:42Chloe, don't post that!

01:16:44Go ahead.

01:16:45Let the whole company see who Mrs. Sterling really is.

01:16:55Daisy Miller, you'll see!

01:16:57Julian is mine!

01:16:59No one takes him from me!

01:17:00I'll make you regret ever crossing me!

01:17:05You called for Miss Victoria?

01:17:07Silas.

01:17:09Last I heard, you got kicked out for stealing from my family.

01:17:11Still employed?

01:17:13I didn't exactly have options back then.

01:17:15There's a hundred thousand on that.

01:17:17I've got a job for you.

01:17:19Head to the Hamptons.

01:17:20Get some photos of Daisy.

01:17:22I want to ruin her.

01:17:23I need Julian to see exactly what kind of woman he's been so obsessed with.

01:17:26Ruining a woman's reputation?

01:17:28Yeah.

01:17:29I'm very good at that.

01:17:35There you are.

01:17:37Julian's been looking everywhere for you.

01:17:38You're really hiding out here?

01:17:39It's just been a lot.

01:17:41My head's all over the place.

01:17:43Chloe, I'm going to head to the hot springs out back.

01:17:45I need some quiet.

01:17:45Don't tell him where I am, okay?

01:17:46Got it.

01:17:47You're alone time.

01:17:49Go soak.

01:17:49Relax.

01:17:50Get yourself all nice and refreshed.

01:17:52Pretty sure Julian's losing it waiting for you.

01:17:59Who's there?

01:18:10Who are you?

01:18:11What do you want?

01:18:12Too bad you crossed the wrong guy.

01:18:15My client wants you destroyed.

01:18:18Who sent you?

01:18:19Victoria, right?

01:18:21Don't flatter yourself.

01:18:23In this city, plenty of people would love to watch you crash and burn.

01:18:27Let's make this interesting.

01:18:29When Julian Stanley sees his perfect wife begging in front of another man,

01:18:33you really think he'll still put you on a pedestal?

01:18:36How much did they pay you?

01:18:37I'll double it.

01:18:39Double?

01:18:41I'm Julian Sturtling's wife.

01:18:44Legally.

01:18:45Let me go, and I won't press charges.

01:18:48I can make sure you walk away with more money than you'll ever need.

01:18:54Save it.

01:18:55I want cash.

01:18:56Up front.

01:18:56Once I get what I need, I get paid.

01:18:58That's the deal.

01:19:00Help!

01:19:01Julian!

01:19:02Help me!

01:19:03Help me!

01:19:08Sir, found something.

01:19:10Chloe said Daisy went to the hot springs half an hour ago,

01:19:12but when I got there, no one was there.

01:19:15These were in the bushes by the pool.

01:19:16Damn it.

01:19:17Something's wrong.

01:19:19Lock down the estate.

01:19:20No one in, no one out.

01:19:21Get security.

01:19:22Search every room.

01:19:23I don't care how.

01:19:24Tear this place apart if you have to.

01:19:25Find her.

01:19:25Now!

01:19:26No!

01:19:35You think you can touch her?

01:19:37Sir!

01:19:37We've got this!

01:19:40I'm here.

01:19:41It's okay.

01:19:43I'm sorry, Daisy.

01:19:44I'm so sorry.

01:19:46Take him.

01:19:47Make sure he remembers what happens when you go after what's mine.

01:19:51Julian, please, save the baby.

01:19:54I hit my stomach earlier.

01:19:56It hurt so bad.

01:19:57The baby?

01:19:58Daisy, what are you saying?

01:20:00I'm pregnant.

01:20:01About a month.

01:20:02Please don't let anything happen to him.

01:20:05Marcus!

01:20:06Get a doctor.

01:20:07Now!

01:20:08I don't care who you call.

01:20:09Just get the best one here.

01:20:10Now!

01:20:13Doctor!

01:20:14My baby.

01:20:15Is it okay?

01:20:16Miss Daisy, I've run the exam a few times.

01:20:19You're not pregnant.

01:20:22No, that's not possible.

01:20:24I saw it.

01:20:25Two lines.

01:20:26Clear as day.

01:20:26False positives happen, especially if the test is expired or wasn't stored properly.

01:20:32As for your symptoms, nausea, discomfort, that's most likely severe gastric spasms made

01:20:38worse by stress.

01:20:40Why didn't you tell me you were really going to leave without saying anything?

01:20:45I didn't know how.

01:20:46Didn't know how?

01:20:48Daisy, I'm your husband.

01:20:49What were you afraid of?

01:20:51I thought you'd make me get rid of it.

01:20:53Why would I ever do that?

01:20:54Because I heard you.

01:20:56You told Marcus, unless it's with the woman you actually love, you'd never let anyone

01:20:59have your child.

01:21:00There's someone in your heart, Julian.

01:21:02There always has been.

01:21:04And me, I'm just the contract wife.

01:21:06I figured if I kept the baby, you'd think I was crossing a line.

01:21:09Like I was tinting the Sterling name.

01:21:11Daisy, you really don't get it, do you?

01:21:14What?

01:21:14The person I've loved this whole time, it's you.

01:21:17It's always been you.

01:21:18But three years ago, you said someone saved you.

01:21:21Yeah.

01:21:22Three years ago.

01:21:23Kentucky.

01:21:23That snowstorm.

01:21:24The girl who pulled me out of the wreck.

01:21:26Who stopped the bleeding.

01:21:27That was you.

01:21:27I didn't even see your face.

01:21:29I was just trying to help.

01:21:31I'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.

01:21:40I never loved her.

01:21:41Daisy, it's always been you.

01:21:47Sir, Silas talked.

01:21:50Victoria paid him $100,000.

01:21:52She told him to kidnap Miss Daisy and take embarrassing photos of her.

01:21:57She wanted you to turn against her completely.

01:21:59So, she wants to play games.

01:22:01Fine.

01:22:02Change the entire closing event.

01:22:05Should I call the police?

01:22:06No.

01:22:07That's too easy.

01:22:08I want her to ruin herself in front of everyone that matters.

01:22:12Get the car.

01:22:14I'm going to visit Miss Victoria.

01:22:16Let's see how fragile she really is.

01:22:23Julian, you finally came.

01:22:25I thought you'd forgotten all about me.

01:22:28Don't mention her.

01:22:29Victoria, I figured things out.

01:22:33Daisy really let me down.

01:22:35The whole thing with Silas blew up.

01:22:36Turns out she was just unlike him.

01:22:38I'm done with her.

01:22:38She already signed the divorce paper.

01:22:39What?

01:22:40I knew it.

01:22:41There was always something off about her.

01:22:43No way she got close to you with good intentions.

01:22:46You've been by my side all these years, and I never really appreciated that.

01:22:50Victoria, 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 in front of everyone.

01:22:59The whole company, the press.

01:23:00I want to make it right.

01:23:01You'll be there, won't you?

01:23:02You're serious?

01:23:03Completely.

01:23:07Get some rest, my future fiancé.

01:23:11I'll see you tomorrow.

01:23:24Daisy Miller, you finally lost.

01:23:27Juliet is mine, and that Sterling name?

01:23:30Mine too.

01:23:32Lucy, I need that Dior Costor piece, the one worth a million, sent over ASAP.

01:23:37Tomorrow 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.

01:23:46Wait, why's Victoria here?

01:23:47Didn't she get fired?

01:23:48Yeah, for a pretty bad screw-up too.

01:23:50And she still shows up dressed like that?

01:23:51Wow.

01:23:51Go ahead, stare.

01:23:52Jealous already?

01:23:53Cute.

01:23:54Just wait till Julian proposes, then we'll see who's looking up to who.

01:24:09Are you kidding me?

01:24:10She looks insane in a good way?

01:24:13No, no, seriously.

01:24:14She owns this night.

01:24:15That's unreal.

01:24:16I've never heard anything like that lot.

01:24:29Daisy Miller?

01:24:30What the hell is she doing here?

01:24:32Simus was supposed to...

01:24:41She's incredible, isn't she?

01:24:55Thanks for coming out tonight for Sterling Group's annual retreat.

01:25:01There's someone I want you all to meet.

01:25:04My wife, Daisy Sterling.

01:25:09I knew it!

01:25:10I swear!

01:25:11I knew it this whole time!

01:25:12Daisy is the Mrs. Sterling!

01:25:14Truth is, we were already married before she ever joined the company.

01:25:22It started as a contract.

01:25:24That's all it was supposed to be.

01:25:25Didn't really go according to plan.

01:25:29Somewhere along the way, I fell for her.

01:25:32Hard.

01:25:33She's strong, she's talented, and she's just a genuinely good person.

01:25:37Didn't stand a chance.

01:25:39I screwed up once.

01:25:40I let her go.

01:25:41No, that's not happening again.

01:25:43So let me make this clear.

01:25:47Daisy is my wife.

01:25:49The only one.

01:26:03No, no, this can't be happening.

01:26:07Julian, you said, you told me.

01:26:20Julian, why are you doing this to me?

01:26:23She's not worth it.

01:26:24You shouldn't love her.

01:26:25You can't love her.

01:26:28Victoria, I gave you more chances than you deserved.

01:26:31For your family's sake, for old time's sake, I was willing to just send you out of New York, let

01:26:35you disappear quietly.

01:26:36But you crossed the line.

01:26:37You hired someone to kidnap Daisy and tried to destroy her, ruin her.

01:26:41No, I didn't.

01:26:41That's a lie.

01:26:42They set me up.

01:26:43She set me up.

01:26:43Daisy did this.

01:26:44Set you up?

01:26:45Marcus, show her.

01:26:47Show everyone what she did.

01:26:49Victoria Vance paid me a hundred grand.

01:26:52Told me to drug Daisy and take photos of her.

01:26:54Ugly ones.

01:26:55Said she wanted Julian to turn on her, ruin her reputation for good.

01:27:03Victoria Vance, you're under arrest for conspiracy to commit assault, kidnapping, and malicious framing.

01:27:07You'll need to come with us.

01:27:09No, let me go.

01:27:10I'm a Vance.

01:27:11Do you know who I am?

01:27:12Julian, please help me.

01:27:14You can't let them take me.

01:27:15I love you.

01:27:18It's over, Daisy.

01:27:20It's all over.

01:27:21No one's ever going to hurt you again.

01:27:23I promise.

01:27:26Tonight 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.

01:27:34No more partnerships, no more deals.

01:27:35In Manhattan, they're done.

01:27:36Permanently blacklisted.

01:27:37And to celebrate finding my wife, we're going to thank all of you for your hard work.

01:27:40The company's getting two days off, fully paid.

01:27:41And this whole resort, that's on me.

01:27:43Let's go.

01:27:44Best boss ever, Mrs. Sterling.

01:27:47Julian, this doesn't even feel real.

01:27:50It is.

01:27:51From the moment you pulled me out of that wreck three years ago, you became the only miracle I've ever

01:27:55had.

01:28:02Julian, does it really not bother you that I'm just a girl from Kentucky who used to clean offices?

01:28:08Just a cleaning girl?

01:28:09That's funny.

01:28:10I remember marrying a violinist who could bring Lincoln Center to its knees.

01:28:13Well, I did pay you back that $100,000 contract fee.

01:28:16Yeah, and in return, you took my whole heart.

01:28:22Manhattan's huge, but my world, it's just you.
