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