00:00:13Hey.
00:00:15Ah, Nicky, my boy.
00:00:18Mr. Richardson.
00:00:20Call me Dad.
00:00:22Ah, Dad.
00:00:23You know, I can't tell you how happy I am that you decided to go through with this sight unseen.
00:00:29But I promise you, you won't regret it.
00:00:31My daughter is a brilliant woman.
00:00:33She's got an even better head for business than I do.
00:00:36I don't even know how that's even possible.
00:00:38No, no, it's true.
00:00:40And after this wedding, when our businesses merge, the sky will be the limit.
00:00:45Right.
00:00:46And I just want to thank you for your trust and for the match, Dad.
00:00:50Even though I would have loved to have met your daughter before the wedding day,
00:00:53I hear she's beautiful.
00:00:55I hear she's amazing and I'm really looking forward to it.
00:00:57She is.
00:00:58And I'll just tell you this.
00:01:01She's my favorite daughter.
00:01:04Oh, really?
00:01:05You're a very lucky man.
00:01:06Thank you, sir.
00:01:08All right.
00:01:08Take care, buddy.
00:01:10My God.
00:01:11He's so handsome.
00:01:12I can't believe I'm marrying him today.
00:01:16Congratulations, Nick.
00:01:18Marrying Jack Richardson's daughter, that's like winning the lottery.
00:01:21Wow, yeah.
00:01:21I think the same.
00:01:22Trust me, the moment you see her in the dress, you'll faint.
00:01:24Wow.
00:01:25Okay.
00:01:26Thank you, fellas.
00:01:27I'll see you out there.
00:01:28I really hope he likes what he sees.
00:01:31He's so beautiful and handsome and I...
00:01:47Please all rise for the bride.
00:02:16That's who I'm marrying you?
00:02:18Oh my God.
00:02:20Is that the bride?
00:02:22I was sure he was marrying the pretty sister.
00:02:24Why didn't he choose her?
00:02:26She's clearly the hotter sister.
00:02:32Our eyes are so beautiful.
00:02:44Oh my God.
00:02:47Oh no.
00:02:48A comet hit Earth.
00:02:49Poor guy.
00:02:50What a night awaits him.
00:02:51It's caught away heavy on him.
00:02:53Look at that dress.
00:02:54It's very little bitter.
00:03:17He's a gentleman too, just like I thought.
00:03:20What?
00:03:24Are you alright?
00:03:26Yeah.
00:03:27I'm okay.
00:03:29Nothing can ruin today.
00:03:30We're getting married.
00:03:34Shall we go?
00:03:36We shall.
00:03:40I didn't know whales could walk.
00:03:49Oh.
00:03:52I didn't know asses could swim.
00:03:56Today's my wedding day.
00:03:58And if you try and ruin it again, you'll be the one that people are whispering about.
00:04:03What?
00:04:04Okay.
00:04:05I like that.
00:04:18I'm ready.
00:04:21Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to witness the union of Nick and Claudia, who
00:04:28are entering into holy matrimony with the help of God and of their family.
00:04:36Nick, do you take Claudia as your wife?
00:04:45What should I do?
00:04:48Please say yes.
00:04:50I'm so confused.
00:04:53I do.
00:04:57Claudia, do you take Nick as your husband?
00:05:03I've waited for this moment my whole life.
00:05:06I do.
00:05:07I do.
00:05:26Nothing will ruin this day.
00:05:30Nick, you may now kiss your bride.
00:05:44Your lips feel so soft.
00:05:48He's kissing me for real.
00:05:56By the power vested in me, by the state of California, I hereby declare you husband and wife.
00:06:06I can't believe it.
00:06:08It's official.
00:06:09We're married.
00:06:10Yes.
00:06:13Um, I need to go talk with some guests.
00:06:16Yeah.
00:06:18Yeah.
00:06:32Oh my god.
00:06:39I can't believe you still got an appetite.
00:06:42Oh, by the way, are you okay?
00:06:44Surely that must have been a little embarrassing with the spoon.
00:06:47Oh, can't believe he's still got an appetite.
00:06:48Sorry, if that sounded mean.
00:06:51I just, I'm really worried about you.
00:06:54So, I'm debating whether or not I should tell you this.
00:06:58Tell me what?
00:07:00Cheers.
00:07:02I overheard Nick having a conversation with his friend.
00:07:07Yeah, and what did he say?
00:07:09He said he only married you because of the merger.
00:07:15Well, yeah, I mean, the whole marriage was born out of the merger.
00:07:20But that's it, Claudia.
00:07:22Nick was looking forward to the wedding because he thought he was going to marry me.
00:07:30What?
00:07:32No.
00:07:33No, you're making this up.
00:07:35I know you.
00:07:36No, Claudia.
00:07:38And you saw for yourself how surprised he was.
00:07:41Because how surprised everybody was.
00:07:45And here you are, on your wedding day, stuffing your face with cream puffs.
00:07:50Alone, with a ring that barely fits you.
00:07:54If he didn't know he was going to be marrying me, what did he say I do?
00:07:59Other than the merger?
00:08:02Because he pities you.
00:08:06Obviously.
00:08:09You really are pitiful.
00:08:14And you, Troy, are jealous.
00:08:16And a liar.
00:08:18Oh, you think so?
00:08:19Well, if you don't believe me, then watch this.
00:08:30Choke.
00:08:32Hey.
00:08:35Yes?
00:08:45Just...
00:08:47Hey, there's my beautiful bride.
00:08:50Not now, Roy.
00:08:51I'm too upset.
00:08:52Oh.
00:08:53No.
00:08:54Uh-uh.
00:08:55We are not going to let your basic biatch of a sister ruin your wedding night for you.
00:08:59She already has.
00:09:00Don't forget that tonight, that lusciously handsome man is going to sleep with you.
00:09:07Not her.
00:09:09You're right.
00:09:10He's mine tonight.
00:09:16Did he really not want to marry me?
00:09:19Was he disappointed when he saw me?
00:09:21Is all he sees in me a fat woman?
00:09:24Claudia, enough.
00:09:26You've let Joy get into your head your whole life.
00:09:28Don't let her ruin tonight, too.
00:09:33Joy's lying.
00:09:35Nick said yes.
00:09:37He wasn't forced to marry me.
00:09:40He's out there waiting for me to come out there and make love to him all night long.
00:09:51Get it, Claudia.
00:09:53Get it.
00:09:55Get it, Claudia.
00:09:56Get it.
00:10:04Nick?
00:10:13Nick?
00:10:16Nick?
00:10:18Nick, it's our wedding night. Don't you want to?
00:10:23What kind of man falls asleep on his wedding night?
00:10:28A man who's unattracted to his wife, that's who.
00:10:32Oh no.
00:10:41I can't, Claudia. Not yet. I'm sorry.
00:10:51Oh, where are you going?
00:10:54I actually have a big business brunch with some potential investors.
00:10:58Oh, I see. I'll be ready to go and just puke.
00:11:01No, uh, no. I, uh, so these investors, they don't particularly know that our companies are merging,
00:11:10so I think this one might be better if I just take it along.
00:11:13My father left the business for me to manage, and we're going to do that together.
00:11:19So we should show that we can do that, that we are a strong couple, and business and love.
00:11:27Mm-hmm. Strong couple.
00:11:29Nah.
00:11:32Right.
00:11:43Look, just please be polite, and let me do all the talking.
00:11:47We have a lot of investments to secure, and do not dump any champagne onto somebody's head.
00:11:53It was one time.
00:12:01Here he is, boys.
00:12:04Hello, hello, everyone. I apologize profusely for my tardiness, but it looks like you guys got started, ordered some food.
00:12:11That's great. Dave, I heard you had an amazing Q1. I'd love to enter into the sector that you guys
00:12:17were talking about.
00:12:18Hi. I'm Claudia, Nick's wife and partner in managing the business.
00:12:25Oh, yeah. Claudia, I've heard a lot about you. You're a pretty big deal.
00:12:32You're the heiress of that force, Nick, kicking and screaming to marry for the merger.
00:12:35Yeah, right.
00:12:39No, no, just wait a minute, Dave. I don't really care how much money you have.
00:12:44I don't need you to disrespect my wife like that, and I demand you to give her an apology.
00:12:52Yeah? Or else what?
00:12:54Come on, Sterling, you're just a pretender.
00:12:56Without the merger with you and this Wales family, you wouldn't even be invited to this table.
00:13:01So why don't you just sit back and learn from the big boys?
00:13:05Hmm. Pretender, huh?
00:13:06Huh? That's rich. Coming from someone wearing a dollar store toupee.
00:13:12I know who you are, Dave, and I know your company's financial situation.
00:13:20What I don't know is what you're doing at this table considering you don't have a dollar left to invest.
00:13:32You had to take out a loan last month for payroll.
00:13:39I'd stay quiet.
00:13:47I'm taking this.
00:13:54It's for the best that he left anyway.
00:13:57He'd skipped out on the bill.
00:14:00Claudia, we talked about keeping a low profile, and you're making us...
00:14:30Why is she acting like this?
00:14:32She could blow this whole deal.
00:14:35Claudia.
00:14:38All right, gentlemen and ladies, now that we're all here, except for Dave, of course.
00:14:45I want to speak about the state of the economy right now.
00:14:48We know it's in a depression, and that's why I think foreign assets is the thing we need to invest
00:14:53in.
00:14:53Before we go on a tangent about foreign companies, we shouldn't write off local businesses so quickly.
00:15:03My company and Nick's are about to go through a massive merger, and when that happens, our stock prices are
00:15:10about to go through the roof.
00:15:11The time to invest is now, before it's too late.
00:15:18I never got pitched by a talking cake before.
00:15:22Oh, if anything is going to explode, it's her.
00:15:31Claudia, sit down and stop talking.
00:15:33Clean yourself up, for God's sakes.
00:15:53Good thing she left.
00:15:55I'm not interested in investing in a company run by someone like that.
00:15:59Then don't invest.
00:16:01In fact, none of you should invest, because I don't want to affiliate with any of you small mining fools.
00:16:17Roy, it's me.
00:16:19Can you come pick me up, please?
00:16:22Oh my God, honey.
00:16:23Yes, stay calm.
00:16:24I'll be right there.
00:16:32What do you want?
00:16:37I just want to talk to you really quick.
00:16:39About what?
00:16:40Just calm down.
00:16:41I will not calm down, and there is nothing to talk about.
00:16:48You're ashamed of me.
00:16:49You're embarrassed by me.
00:16:52And you'd have already given up on this whole marriage if it wasn't for your precious merger, right?
00:16:59Right?
00:17:00Yes.
00:17:00Yes, okay.
00:17:01You embarrass me.
00:17:02All right?
00:17:03You can't just stand up in front of a bunch of business sharks with lemon meringue pie smear all over
00:17:07your face.
00:17:08Who's going to listen to you?
00:17:09Who's going to take you seriously when you look like a fucking...
00:17:14Like a what, Nick?
00:17:17Like a what, Nick?
00:17:26Nick?
00:17:33Like a fat woman, Nick.
00:17:35Is that all you see in me?
00:17:41You know, you wouldn't be the first.
00:17:45That's what anybody sees when they look at me.
00:17:49But you want to know what really breaks my heart?
00:17:53Is that you will never get a chance to realize that I am so much more than that.
00:18:07Goodbye, Nick.
00:18:08Goodbye?
00:18:09What?
00:18:10Hey.
00:18:11Claudia, just...
00:18:13Claudia, please!
00:18:16Claudia, wait!
00:18:17Please, just give me one second!
00:18:19Claudia, please!
00:18:21Claudia, please!
00:18:24Claudia, wait!
00:18:25What are you doing?
00:18:30You're really just going to leave?
00:18:38Oh my god, girl.
00:18:40What happened to you?
00:18:41Nick really didn't want me.
00:18:45He thought he was marrying the thin and beautiful Richardson daughter.
00:18:52Not the fat and disgusting one.
00:18:55Not me.
00:18:58You just knock it right off with that nonsense.
00:19:01No!
00:19:01No, I...
00:19:02No, I can't!
00:19:04He doesn't want me!
00:19:07I don't know what to do now.
00:19:11You don't need to do anything.
00:19:13You are perfect and a beautiful queen, okay?
00:19:19And if stupid Nick doesn't recognize that, it's his problem.
00:19:25You hear me?
00:19:29Earth to Claudia.
00:19:31I refuse to feel like this anymore.
00:19:35There we go.
00:19:36Yes!
00:19:38You just need to be yourself, okay?
00:19:41So you got some extra weight.
00:19:43Time to throw it around.
00:19:44That's not what I mean.
00:19:47For years, I have barely left the house.
00:19:51The looks, the put-downs.
00:19:54It was all too painful.
00:19:57I had hoped that Nick would see beyond the outside and love me for who I am.
00:20:05But how could he?
00:20:07I'm a whale.
00:20:10Why couldn't I have been born with Joy's perfect genetics?
00:20:14A. Joy's a bitch.
00:20:16So she's far from perfect girl.
00:20:18But B.
00:20:20How can he love you as you are when you don't love you as you are?
00:20:28Hey.
00:20:29Do you remember that guy you dated?
00:20:32The one who went to the health center?
00:20:34Of course.
00:20:35He came back a different person, Abs, to die for.
00:20:38I want the address.
00:20:40Of the wellness estate?
00:20:42Yeah.
00:20:43What are you planning?
00:20:46I am so sick of not loving what I see in the mirror.
00:20:50But I am even more sick of what others see.
00:20:55Fat.
00:20:57And nothing else.
00:21:00I refuse to be humiliated anymore.
00:21:04I'm going to take my life into my own hands.
00:21:08And make everyone who ever laughed at me regret it.
00:21:13I can do this.
00:21:15And when I get back...
00:21:20Nick will beg to be with me.
00:21:35It's time for a change.
00:21:45Oh, God, I can't do this.
00:21:54Oh, my God.
00:21:59Heck, it's our wedding night.
00:22:01Don't you want to...
00:22:05No, I can do this.
00:22:09From today on, old Claudia is dead.
00:22:23You're strong.
00:22:25You can do this.
00:22:32Every look, every word, cut deeper than it hurt.
00:22:36She was drowning in the noise, but silence made her worse.
00:22:41Now she's back like a wildfire, dancing on the same old scars.
00:22:48Oh, yeah, she burned who she was before.
00:22:52Now I don't know who you are.
00:22:57They choose me.
00:22:59I can do it.
00:23:03She came back different
00:23:07She came back different
00:23:26Claudia?
00:23:27Is that you?
00:23:36I need to talk to you about the meeting with Gilder Brothers.
00:23:39Gilder Brothers, that sounds fine.
00:23:43Okay, Nick.
00:23:44Snap out of it.
00:23:46You need to pull yourself together
00:23:47and act like a goddamn CEO.
00:23:50Look, I should have just listened to Claudia.
00:23:53She was right about everything, Joy.
00:23:56Everything that she said,
00:23:57that stupid brunch,
00:23:59it all came true.
00:24:00The trend is to invest into local companies
00:24:03with strong mergers.
00:24:04She saw that months ahead of any of us.
00:24:06And I had to be stupid
00:24:08and drive her away
00:24:09and ruin everything.
00:24:10And she was the best thing
00:24:12that happened to this company.
00:24:13She was.
00:24:18She was.
00:24:38What's done is done.
00:24:41You have a business to run.
00:24:43And I am here as your partner
00:24:45to make sure that that happens.
00:24:47So man up.
00:24:48And let go of your fat ex
00:24:50could have been wife already.
00:24:51How can you speak about her like that?
00:24:53She's your sister.
00:24:55And how can I function
00:24:56knowing that I drove my wife away
00:24:58and I don't even know
00:24:59where she's been for the last three months?
00:25:01Nick.
00:25:01What?
00:25:02Accept it.
00:25:04There is no more Claudia.
00:25:06She disappeared.
00:25:06Ran away.
00:25:08She is not coming back.
00:25:12I'm here.
00:25:17I'm here.
00:25:24Who is that?
00:25:26Wow.
00:25:36I know those eyes.
00:25:44Um, okay, you're here.
00:25:47But I don't think you should be.
00:25:49I think you're mistaken about the offices.
00:25:51No, I'm not mistaken.
00:25:56I heard this rumor
00:25:58while I was away
00:25:59that you were trying to destroy the company
00:26:00that our father gave to me.
00:26:02So I'm here to save it.
00:26:07Claudia?
00:26:08Claudia?
00:26:10Oh, right.
00:26:11This is Claudia.
00:26:13Yeah, maybe one third of her.
00:26:16I don't know who you are
00:26:17or how you got past security,
00:26:19but this is a board meeting
00:26:20and only authorized officers
00:26:22are allowed to participate.
00:26:23Yes, I know that
00:26:25because I'm the legal heir
00:26:27and the majority owner
00:26:28of this company.
00:26:30So I am more than authorized
00:26:31to be here
00:26:32and be present for the board meeting.
00:26:35Legal heir?
00:26:37Oh, nice try.
00:26:39But this is my family's company
00:26:42and I think I would know a relative
00:26:44if she were standing
00:26:44right in front of me.
00:26:46Now, enough is enough.
00:26:47You should leave
00:26:48before I have security drag you out.
00:26:50What's going on here?
00:26:52Have I really changed so much
00:26:54that even my sister
00:26:55doesn't recognize me?
00:26:57I wonder if Nick recognizes me.
00:27:00Something about her feels familiar.
00:27:02Is it her?
00:27:07Security.
00:27:08Hi, yes,
00:27:09there's an intruder
00:27:10in the conference room.
00:27:11Can you please come
00:27:12and remove her?
00:27:13No need, Carl.
00:27:15I told you there might be drama.
00:27:17Sorry, Mrs. Richardson.
00:27:19Miss Richardson.
00:27:22See?
00:27:23Security will not be kicking me out
00:27:25of the conference room
00:27:27of the business
00:27:28that my dad built
00:27:29and gave to me.
00:27:31I'm not going anywhere.
00:27:34I am Claudia.
00:27:39Oh, that's it.
00:27:40This woman is a lying imposter.
00:27:42Nick, you're the boss
00:27:43for God's sake.
00:27:44Do something.
00:27:46Okay.
00:27:48If you're my wife,
00:27:49then where's our wedding ring?
00:27:54Wow.
00:27:56They really don't recognize me.
00:27:58Nick,
00:28:00you know that our marriage was over
00:28:02before it even started.
00:28:06Remember?
00:28:07You never once looked at me
00:28:08like I was your wife,
00:28:09so why would I wear your ring?
00:28:14I don't understand.
00:28:15Is this really you, Claudia?
00:28:25Yes.
00:28:26It's really me.
00:28:30She has the ring.
00:28:31Maybe it really is her.
00:28:33But you know what?
00:28:35It fits just right now.
00:28:45Claudia,
00:28:46I was looking for you
00:28:48this entire time,
00:28:49and I'm so sorry.
00:28:51I was worried about you.
00:28:53I really am so sorry.
00:28:57Nick,
00:28:58don't fall for this scam.
00:29:00Do you not think
00:29:01I wouldn't recognize
00:29:02my own sister?
00:29:04This
00:29:05is
00:29:05not
00:29:06Claudia.
00:29:09This
00:29:09is
00:29:10not
00:29:11Claudia.
00:29:12I mean,
00:29:13we all remember
00:29:14what Claudia looked like.
00:29:15She was
00:29:16huge,
00:29:17fat,
00:29:18a whale.
00:29:18There is
00:29:19no chance
00:29:20that this woman
00:29:21is Claudia.
00:29:24Claudia,
00:29:24I swear that
00:29:25I looked for you
00:29:25everywhere
00:29:26ever since you left.
00:29:30Claudia,
00:29:31wait!
00:29:31You're really
00:29:32just gonna leave?
00:29:34It has been months.
00:29:35How is it even possible
00:29:36that no one's found her?
00:29:38Do your job
00:29:40and find her!
00:29:42It really is you.
00:29:45You are so beautiful.
00:29:47this is all
00:29:48I wanted
00:29:49for him
00:29:50to look at me
00:29:51like this.
00:29:52Finally.
00:29:53But it's too late.
00:29:55I will never
00:29:56forgive him
00:29:56for how he made me feel.
00:29:58Thanks.
00:30:01But
00:30:01I don't need
00:30:02this
00:30:03anymore.
00:30:12Oh,
00:30:13it's clear now.
00:30:15Claudia is
00:30:16so ashamed
00:30:17of her weight
00:30:18that she hired
00:30:19some actress
00:30:20to impersonate her.
00:30:22It's pathetic,
00:30:24but
00:30:24it makes sense.
00:30:25You know what's
00:30:26pathetic,
00:30:27Joy?
00:30:28Is
00:30:28you preferring
00:30:29to believe
00:30:30that your own
00:30:31sister
00:30:31would do
00:30:32something
00:30:33so
00:30:33insane
00:30:34instead of
00:30:35believing that
00:30:35I had the
00:30:36willpower
00:30:37and the drive
00:30:37to make
00:30:38a positive
00:30:38change?
00:30:39Please.
00:30:41The only thing
00:30:42Claudia could
00:30:42ever summon
00:30:43the willpower
00:30:44and drive
00:30:44to do
00:30:45was close
00:30:46down a buffet.
00:30:47She couldn't
00:30:47keep her
00:30:48fat mouth
00:30:49shut.
00:30:50Maybe that's
00:30:51something you two
00:30:51have in common.
00:30:53I'm warning you,
00:30:55Joy.
00:30:56You don't get
00:30:57to shit talk me
00:30:57anymore.
00:30:59The days of you
00:30:59speaking to me
00:31:00like this
00:31:01are over.
00:31:02Maybe this is
00:31:03really Claudia
00:31:04standing in front
00:31:04of me.
00:31:05No way.
00:31:07Nick,
00:31:08throw her out.
00:31:12Claudia,
00:31:13where did
00:31:14you go?
00:31:15Enough with
00:31:15the circuses!
00:31:16Throw the
00:31:17bitch out!
00:31:18Claudia?
00:31:19Is that
00:31:20you?
00:31:22Claudia?
00:31:24Is that
00:31:25you?
00:31:26Claudia,
00:31:27I was worried
00:31:28sick.
00:31:30Finally,
00:31:30where have you
00:31:31been this
00:31:31whole time?
00:31:32I had to
00:31:32take control
00:31:33of my life,
00:31:34Dad.
00:31:34And I'm
00:31:35sorry,
00:31:35I didn't
00:31:36mean to
00:31:36worry you.
00:31:37Why are
00:31:37you so
00:31:37thin?
00:31:39What happened?
00:31:40Where are
00:31:40these two
00:31:41sweet roles
00:31:42that I love
00:31:42so much?
00:31:44Only you
00:31:44love them,
00:31:46Dad.
00:31:46Dad,
00:31:47don't embarrass
00:31:48yourself.
00:31:48This is not
00:31:49the real
00:31:49Claudia.
00:31:50This is some
00:31:50imposter
00:31:51actress that
00:31:52she is.
00:31:52Please!
00:31:54Nonsense.
00:31:55Of course,
00:31:55this is
00:31:55Claudia.
00:31:56You think
00:31:56a father
00:31:57would know
00:31:58his own
00:31:58daughter?
00:31:59And here
00:31:59you are,
00:32:00trying to
00:32:00throw her
00:32:01out of
00:32:01her own
00:32:01office?
00:32:02No,
00:32:02there's
00:32:03no chance
00:32:05that...
00:32:05Shush.

00:32:09Now you
00:32:09have by
00:32:10your side

00:32:16your promise
00:32:16and you

00:32:24now that
00:32:25Claudia is
00:32:25back,
00:32:26that together
00:32:27as partners,
00:32:29we can build
00:32:30this company
00:32:30up to an
00:32:31empire.
00:32:32So,
00:32:33Claudia,
00:32:35what do
00:32:35you say,
00:32:36partners?
00:32:42Why,
00:32:43whenever he
00:32:43looks at
00:32:44me,
00:32:44does my
00:32:44heart
00:32:45skip a
00:32:45bee?
00:32:46No,
00:32:47no,
00:32:48stop it,
00:32:48Claudia.
00:32:49This is
00:32:49not part
00:32:50of the
00:32:50plan.
00:32:51Get a
00:32:51grip.
00:33:07So,
00:33:08are we all
00:33:09now familiar
00:33:09with the
00:33:10hierarchy
00:33:10of this
00:33:10company?
00:33:13Fantastic.
00:33:14Then let's get
00:33:14to work,
00:33:15because we
00:33:15have a lot
00:33:16of work
00:33:16to do.
00:33:18you mentioned
00:33:19something about
00:33:19a board meeting.
00:33:20Yes,
00:33:21I did.
00:33:21If everyone
00:33:22wants to turn
00:33:23to page three
00:33:24in their
00:33:24portfolios,
00:33:24we can get
00:33:25started.
00:33:29It's just
00:33:30like the
00:33:30data indicates.
00:33:32Right now,
00:33:32the market is
00:33:33looking for
00:33:33reliability
00:33:34and stability.
00:33:36So,
00:33:36if we can
00:33:37convince them
00:33:37that our
00:33:38company is
00:33:39the solid
00:33:40rock in
00:33:40the middle
00:33:40of a stormy
00:33:41sea,
00:33:41then we can
00:33:42recruit the
00:33:43correct investors.
00:33:45Let's do
00:33:45it.
00:33:57Hey,

00:34:00when he said
00:34:01that you were
00:34:01sharp,
00:34:02attentive.
00:34:03I don't have
00:34:04time for
00:34:04flattery.

00:34:41merger.

00:34:54poison.
00:34:55Claudia,

00:35:15they became
00:35:15a couple.
00:35:17Just like

00:35:18And now
00:35:19he's just
00:35:20trying to
00:35:20play the
00:35:20field.
00:35:22Typical
00:35:22pig.
00:35:29Stop.

00:35:44before I
00:35:44completely
00:35:44lose the
00:35:45chance
00:35:45to make
00:35:45naked
00:35:46mine.
00:35:52Oh,

00:36:09they didn't
00:36:09even recognize
00:36:10me.
00:36:10I mean,
00:36:11except like
00:36:11my dad,
00:36:12of course.
00:36:13I mean,
00:36:13you do look
00:36:13like a whole
00:36:14new person.
00:36:14You can't
00:36:15blame him.

00:36:26dreamt he
00:36:27would.
00:36:27I mean,
00:36:27he couldn't
00:36:27even take
00:36:28his eyes
00:36:28off me.
00:36:29I bet.
00:36:30Look at

00:36:49We are not getting
00:36:50too excited,
00:36:50okay?

00:36:51exactly who Nick
00:36:52is,
00:36:54and it's like
00:36:55exactly how I
00:36:56thought it was.
00:36:56He's with Joy
00:36:57now, right?
00:36:58And next time I see
00:36:59him,
00:36:59I'm going to tell him
00:37:00exactly how much
00:37:01I hate him.
00:37:05How does that
00:37:06feel?
00:37:06So good.
00:37:11Some guy
00:37:12touching my wife?
00:37:13Has she already
00:37:14found someone else?
00:37:15Wait,
00:37:16that's the guy
00:37:16who picked her up
00:37:17when she left me.
00:37:18Has she been with
00:37:19him this whole time?
00:37:20Why don't you
00:37:21play here,
00:37:22Claudia?
00:37:29Is Claudia in
00:37:30there?
00:37:30Um,
00:37:31well,
00:37:31she...
00:37:32I better not
00:37:32find her naked,
00:37:33buddy.
00:37:33I kind of doubt
00:37:34that.
00:37:36Yeah,
00:37:36really?
00:37:44Claudia,
00:37:45there you are.
00:37:46What is going
00:37:47on here?
00:37:48You...

00:39:24It's okay.
00:39:26But look,
00:39:26look, you,
00:39:27you have to understand me.
00:39:28Okay.
00:39:28Look,
00:39:29she was gone
00:39:30and disappeared
00:39:30for months.
00:39:31You had me worried.
00:39:33You show up to the office.
00:39:34You don't say a word to me
00:39:35and you just show up
00:39:36at this man's house
00:39:37and so
00:39:39Claudia,
00:39:40would you just come,
00:39:42come back home
00:39:43with me, please?
00:39:46Why does he want me
00:39:47back so badly?
00:39:49Look,

00:39:50this looks,
00:39:51okay?
00:39:51We are married
00:39:52and you can't be
00:39:54staying over
00:39:54at another man's house.
00:39:55That just screams crisis.
00:39:58All right.
00:39:58And you were the one
00:39:59who said that
00:40:00we needed stability,
00:40:01right?
00:40:02And your father
00:40:03trusts you.
00:40:04Of course,
00:40:05he cares about
00:40:06the company,
00:40:07not me.
00:40:08What was I thinking?
00:40:10So?
00:40:12What do you say?
00:40:13You said that
00:40:14you were coming back
00:40:15to build an empire.

00:40:18If the two top executives
00:40:20who are supposed
00:40:21to be married
00:40:21look unstable,
00:40:22investors will
00:40:23panic.

00:48:23my life
00:48:23and instead it was the loneliest and all the humiliation and the mockery yeah that really hurt
00:48:29but the thing that hurt the worst was the sheer luck of disappointment that i got from you
00:48:34you know i never meant to hurt you or just then what did you mean
00:48:39look i was excited okay and i guess i just got surprised because i was expecting something else

00:48:57pathetic one claudia stop no i'm not gonna stop i will not stop nick because i can't even blame you
00:49:04but i can't forgive you you can't forgive me i mean i i feel like i deserve a second chance
00:49:13okay and look i know i mishandled the whole wedding but it was bad for me too and and to
00:49:19be honest i am
00:49:21just less attracted to larger women and look maybe that is unfair to say but it is at least the
00:49:27truth
00:49:28and let me point out something else you were the one that ran away not me i stayed
00:49:37for us regardless of all that you left me and
00:49:46we could we could we could be great together we we could be a true power couple look and i
00:49:54have thought
00:49:54of you every day since you left and not and not because because of all this

00:54:50How did I get into this room?
00:54:53What the hell?

00:54:57Yeah.
00:54:59What do you mean, Nikki?
00:55:01That you don't remember what happened last night?
00:55:05What we did.
00:55:12What do you mean?
00:55:15How could you forget a night like that?
00:55:18Honestly, I'm impressed.
00:55:21Wait.
00:55:21Wait.
00:55:22Are you saying that something happened between us?
00:55:26Something.
00:55:26Something.
00:55:28Everything happened.
00:55:30Oh, last night was so amazing.
00:55:33Unimaginable.
00:55:34You were unforgettable.
00:55:37I woke up early this morning.
00:55:38Thought I'd surprise you with breakfast.
00:55:41I mean, after all that effort you put in last night, you earned it.
00:55:46Oh, my hairpin.
00:55:49We were so wild last night.
00:55:51Must have just fallen off.
00:55:53Look, look.
00:55:53I don't know what happened last night, but nobody can hear any of this.
00:55:59Why would we hide anything?
00:56:01I'm serious.
00:56:03Look, what do you want?
00:56:06I don't want anything other than to be with you.
00:56:10What are you talking about?
00:56:11I'm married to your sister.
00:56:13I know.
00:56:14Doesn't that make it exciting?
00:56:16No, look.
00:56:17Just say whatever you want and just leave now.
00:56:23Fine.
00:56:24I want to be VP of the company.
00:56:26This way, I stay close to you.
00:56:29I hate this, but I'm trapped.
00:56:33Fine.
00:56:35This is how it will be.
00:56:38Now get out of my room.
00:57:05Good morning.
00:57:08Did you sleep well?
00:57:10Uh.
00:57:12Yes.
00:57:12As I went to bed early,
00:57:14how long did you end up staying at the convention?
00:57:17Why is he acting like this?
00:57:19Does he not remember what happened last night?
00:57:23Good morning.
00:57:26What are you doing here?
00:57:28Oh, Nick didn't tell you the good news?
00:57:31He promoted me senior VP.
00:57:33I'll be at all the executive meetings now.
00:57:37Is that true?
00:57:39Uh, yes, I thought that it would be best for the company
00:57:43if the family was united.
00:57:50That's my hairpin she's wearing.
00:57:52What is going on here?
00:57:58Something's wrong.
00:57:59Was Joy in his room after I left?
00:58:02Oh my God, did something happen between them?
00:58:07Excuse me, I need to make a really important phone call.
00:58:12What, um...
00:58:15What have I done?
00:58:17I slept with her sister and ruined everything.
00:58:23Hello?
00:58:25Nick, Mr. Hart of EPS has arrived
00:58:28and is waiting for your meeting.
00:58:30What? Noah Hart is here?
00:58:33Fuck, I forgot that meeting.
00:58:34Um, I need you to go get Claudia.
00:58:36Uh, Noah Hart is here.
00:58:37That's the biggest priority for this company right now.
00:58:39Great. Just have them meet us in here.
00:58:42No, no, no. This is an investor meeting.
00:58:44This isn't a board meeting.
00:58:45It's just Claudia and I only, okay?
00:58:47We have an agreement.
00:58:49I am management now.
00:58:51This is non-negotiable.
00:58:53I need you to go get Claudia now.
00:59:00I can't believe that I let myself fall for him again.
00:59:03And he chooses Joy.
00:59:06I'm so fucking stupid.
00:59:16What do you want?
00:59:18There's an investor here, Noah Hart.
00:59:20He's in the lobby.
00:59:21He says he'll wait for you there.
00:59:23Noah Hart is here?
00:59:24Mm-hmm.
00:59:31You're really going to make it that easy for me?
00:59:34Idiot.
00:59:57Hello?
00:59:59Hello?
01:00:00Hello?
01:00:10Can anybody hear me?
01:00:12Can anybody hear me?
01:00:14Help!
01:00:16Hey, can anybody hear me?
01:00:18I'm stuck in here, please.

01:00:37Please.
01:00:56Nick, I was under the impression that your beautiful and brilliant wife would be joining us today.
01:01:02Absolutely.

01:01:06It's important to me that I do this with the both of you.
01:01:08Mm-hmm.
01:01:09You understand?
01:01:10No, no, absolutely.
01:01:11I, uh, Claudia should be here any moment.

01:02:35You're okay, Claudia.
01:02:36Let's go.
01:02:37Claudia.
01:02:37Claudia, you're going to be fine.
01:02:42There you go.
01:02:43Just breathe.
01:02:45Are you feeling any better?
01:02:47Yeah.
01:02:49I'm just so tired.
01:02:51I'm going to rest my eyes for a few moments.
01:02:54Of course, yeah.
01:02:55Just take as long as you need.
01:02:59I almost lost her.
01:03:01I don't know what I would have done.
01:03:03My God, I had no idea she was becoming this important to me.
01:03:22Wait.
01:03:23I can't believe it.
01:03:25Were you the one I was with last night?
01:03:27Or am I just imagining it?
01:03:31No, no, no, no.
01:03:32Just close your eyes and rest for now.
01:03:41Hey, investor.
01:03:43Mr. Hart, is he still here?
01:03:44No, no, no.
01:03:45Claudia, it's okay.
01:03:46Don't worry about that.
01:03:47Just rest for now.
01:03:48No.
01:03:49No, we can't afford to lose this investment.
01:03:50No, it's fine.
01:03:51We'll worry about that later, okay?
01:03:55Later.
01:03:57Wait, Claudia, just...
01:03:59This woman, she may actually be crazy, but I'm crazy about her.
01:04:09Wait, Mr. Hart, wait, please.
01:04:12I'm so sorry that I missed our meeting.
01:04:14It was not on purpose.
01:04:16It was not...
01:04:16Stop right there.
01:04:19I've already made up my mind.
01:04:21Please, just give me a chance.
01:04:24I'm investing in you.
01:04:27I read over your metrics on the way.
01:04:30But then after seeing the way Nick fought for you,
01:04:34I can only say that I'm confident in my investment.
01:04:39I'll have my team send over a contract.
01:04:44Congratulations.
01:04:53Do you hear that?
01:04:54He's going to invest in us?
01:04:55We did it!
01:05:10Claudia, why?
01:05:12I mean, there's something definitely between us, right?
01:05:16I don't know what you're talking about.
01:05:18I'm just happy we succeeded.
01:05:22It was her I was with last night.
01:05:24I know it was her.
01:05:27Hey, hey, hey, hey.
01:05:28I need to ask you something about the party last night.
01:05:31Look, I know that I was very drunk, yes.
01:05:34And I don't remember anything.
01:05:36But I do remember...
01:05:38I remember your scent.
01:05:40And your hair.
01:05:42Tell me I'm not crazy.
01:05:44We were together last night, right?
01:05:46He doesn't remember.
01:05:48Not only that, he was with joy right after.
01:05:52No matter how much weight I lost, he still chose her.
01:05:57Not only that, he was with joy right after.
01:06:01No matter how much weight I lost, he still chose her.
01:06:08Nick was looking forward to the wedding because he was sure that he'd be marrying me.
01:06:16You must be imagining things.
01:06:20Maybe you're with someone else.
01:06:22So I really was with joy.
01:06:24I really did betray my wife.
01:06:26And I'm really not worthy of her.
01:06:31Well, now we have our contract with Noah Hart.
01:06:34So I guess we can stop pretending, right?
01:06:38Yeah.
01:06:39If that's how you want to do things.
01:07:02You going somewhere?
01:07:03This couple arrangement is over.
01:07:07Arrangement?
01:07:08This is a relationship.
01:07:11Claudia.
01:07:13Look.
01:07:15I know that I hurt you.
01:07:17Okay?
01:07:17And I know that I failed you.
01:07:19But I'm here now.
01:07:21And I want to try.
01:07:22And I can change.
01:07:24Can you?
01:07:26Because I don't trust you.
01:07:28It's like you want me.
01:07:30And then the next second that changes.
01:07:31I mean, joy walks in the room.
01:07:33And then I no longer even exist.
01:07:36Just tell me this.
01:07:38What happens if I gain?
01:07:42If I get pregnant?
01:07:44If I embarrass you?
01:07:46If literally anything changes, then what?
01:07:49What?
01:07:50You just don't even want me anymore?
01:07:51I mean, what kind of a relationship is it
01:07:53if everything is predicted off of me being perfect?
01:07:55I mean, what kind of a relationship is it
01:07:57if everything is predicted off of me being perfect?
01:08:00Hey, hey, look.
01:08:01I don't care about any of that.
01:08:03Look, you asked me if I would take you back.
01:08:06And the answer is yes.
01:08:07Because I finally got to know you.
01:08:10And you are the only person that I want.
01:08:13Look, Claudia.
01:08:15I love you.
01:08:18I do.
01:08:24I'm sorry, but I don't believe you.
01:08:31Sign it.
01:08:32What is this?
01:08:40This isn't a divorce agreement.
01:08:56I can't believe I've gone back to Ben and Jerry's.
01:08:58Oh, a threesome?
01:09:02Spicy.
01:09:04Seriously, you're allowed some comfort without guilt.
01:09:08I'm just so angry at myself.
01:09:10You know, I came back here to make everyone regret
01:09:13how they treated me,
01:09:14and I promised myself
01:09:15that I wasn't going to let anyone make me feel like I was unworthy
01:09:19ever again.
01:09:20Know what I think?
01:09:21Nick, you made all these changes,
01:09:24but you forgot the big one.
01:09:27Right here.
01:09:28What do you mean?
01:09:31You lost weight.
01:09:32You look incredible.
01:09:33You're strong.
01:09:34You're healthy.
01:09:35But you still don't love yourself enough.
01:09:38No, that's not true.
01:09:39I do.
01:09:40I love myself.
01:09:41I...
01:09:41No.
01:09:42Nick told you again and again and again
01:09:44how he wanted you.
01:09:46If you loved yourself fully,
01:09:49you would have believed him.
01:09:52He cheated on me with joy.
01:09:54No, you don't really know that.
01:09:56But you do really know
01:09:58that joy is a liar
01:09:59and a manipulative psycho bitch.
01:10:02So before you throw him away
01:10:04because you think he chose her,
01:10:06maybe at least try to check what actually happened?
01:10:19Hi, I'm calling.
01:10:21This is Claudia Richardson.
01:10:23I was the sponsor of the event two nights ago.
01:10:27Yes, something was stolen from my room.
01:10:29It was room 843.
01:10:36Yes, I would love to see the security footage.
01:10:50Okay, okay.
01:10:54Fast forward.
01:10:58T, I told you.
01:11:00You slept with her.
01:11:02Patience.
01:11:07Well, that's the fastest affair in history.
01:11:13I mean, she was only there for like five minutes.
01:11:16I mean, either he did cheat
01:11:17and he finishes way too fast,
01:11:19which in that case, girl, good riddance.
01:11:21Or he was never with her and she lied.
01:11:24Bitch lied.
01:11:25I hate it.
01:11:37Uh, Claudia?
01:11:41Look, I haven't signed
01:11:42a divorce agreement yet,
01:11:44but I will.
01:11:45Don't worry about that.
01:11:47But is,
01:11:48is that why you came all the way out here?
01:11:56Claudia, what are you doing?
01:11:59You tried so many times to tell me how you felt.
01:12:02That you wanted me.
01:12:04That I couldn't believe you.
01:12:06I couldn't believe that you would love someone like me.
01:12:09How could anyone not love someone like you?
01:12:12Look, Claudia, I,
01:12:14I love you.
01:12:16And I am so mad at myself
01:12:18for ruining everything between us.
01:12:22You didn't ruin anything.
01:12:24I did.
01:12:25I,
01:12:29I'm still an insecure woman.
01:12:32And I didn't let you get close.
01:12:36Look,
01:12:38Claudia,
01:12:39I, um,
01:12:41I cheated on you.
01:12:45With joy.
01:12:48So, um,
01:12:54No, you didn't.
01:12:57You were with me
01:12:58that night.
01:13:01And it was perfect.
01:13:04Wait, so,
01:13:05so I wasn't with joy.
01:13:08So,
01:13:09so you and I?
01:13:14Claudia,
01:13:14I thought I destroyed everything.
01:13:17So what are you,
01:13:18what are you saying,
01:13:19Claudia?
01:13:21I'm saying that I'm willing
01:13:22to give you a chance.
01:13:25But I need
01:13:26time.
01:13:27I look different
01:13:29now,
01:13:29but I'm still me.
01:13:31And
01:13:32three months ago,
01:13:33I could barely leave the house.
01:13:35I was so insecure
01:13:36in my own skin.
01:13:37And
01:13:39I'm finally learning
01:13:40how to love myself.
01:13:42Look,
01:13:43you take
01:13:43all the time
01:13:44that you need.
01:13:46I'm going to be here.
01:13:48Always.
01:13:50Just don't hurt me again.
01:13:53Can I kiss you?
01:13:55Hey.
01:14:09If we shift the allocation,
01:14:11then
01:14:11we can accelerate the growth
01:14:13without any increased risk.
01:14:15Right.
01:14:17You know,
01:14:18every time you talk strategy,
01:14:19it drives me wild.
01:14:21Wait,
01:14:22what do you mean?
01:14:22Does it bother you?
01:14:24bother me?
01:14:26No,
01:14:26no,
01:14:26no.
01:14:27It actually makes me feel
01:14:29kind of crazy.
01:14:34Really?
01:14:35Yeah,
01:14:36it's very strong,
01:14:37bold,
01:14:40empowering.
01:14:41It's just
01:14:41hard to resist.
01:14:51I think people are going to
01:14:52walk in here in a second.
01:14:54and I don't even care.
01:15:04What the hell?
01:15:08What the hell?
01:15:14Didn't you get divorced?
01:15:16Well,
01:15:16that's what you wanted
01:15:17all along,
01:15:18isn't it,
01:15:19Troy?
01:15:20To drive a wedge between us?
01:15:22To destroy my confidence?
01:15:24Then why?
01:15:25You are so
01:15:27beautiful
01:15:27and
01:15:29determined.
01:15:30I mean,
01:15:30you could have
01:15:30any job,
01:15:32any man that you wanted.
01:15:32So why?
01:15:33Why do you need
01:15:34to take mine?
01:15:35Because
01:15:36it's yours,
01:15:38Claudia.
01:15:38Dad always
01:15:40preferred you.
01:15:41He always
01:15:41loved you more.
01:15:42Everything
01:15:43was always
01:15:43about you.
01:15:45I mean,
01:15:45you took up
01:15:45all the space
01:15:46in the house.
01:15:47And yes,
01:15:48that was a fat joke too.
01:15:50Oh,
01:15:50and it was really funny.
01:15:52Hmm.
01:15:53You know what's funnier though?
01:15:55I was always
01:15:56so jealous of you.
01:15:57And then I stopped
01:15:58comparing myself
01:15:59to you
01:15:59and I realized
01:16:00that
01:16:02I
01:16:02literally
01:16:03don't have
01:16:04anything to envy.
01:16:07Oh,
01:16:08you think
01:16:09you're better than me.
01:16:10Above me.
01:16:11Well,
01:16:12let's stop pretending
01:16:13because your
01:16:13wonderful man here
01:16:15cheated on you
01:16:16with
01:16:17me.
01:16:18Enough!
01:16:20Enough of your lies,
01:16:21okay?
01:16:21We know that you made up
01:16:22everything about that night.
01:16:24You sabotaged
01:16:24the elevator,
01:16:25you put her
01:16:26in harm's way.
01:16:27You could have hurt her
01:16:27and that's unforgivable.
01:16:29Well,
01:16:30you have
01:16:30no evidence.
01:16:31We're not going
01:16:32to the cops.
01:16:33You're out.
01:16:34You're fired!
01:16:36You can't
01:16:36fire me.
01:16:38This is my
01:16:39father's company.
01:16:40And we
01:16:41are the CEOs.
01:16:42So,
01:16:43you're fired.
01:16:48Hmm.
01:16:52You okay?
01:16:54Yeah.
01:17:01I can't
01:17:02be,
01:17:02they fired me!
01:17:03Oh,
01:17:04they're going to pay
01:17:04for this.
01:17:10Hmm.

01:17:12you requested,
01:17:13Mom?
01:17:21Soon,

01:17:24Nick,
01:17:25both of you
01:17:26will pay.
01:17:52well,
01:17:53well,
01:17:53well,
01:17:53you just shut down
01:17:54this entire room.
01:17:56Everything that you see here,
01:17:57the signing,
01:17:58this evening,
01:18:00the Noah Hart investment
01:18:01is all because of you.
01:18:02Your father would be proud,
01:18:04sweetie.
01:18:06That is very nice to hear.
01:18:09You contributed to
01:18:10a little.
01:18:13Have you seen my father?
01:18:14He needs to be here
01:18:15before the investor arrives.
01:18:17Uh,
01:18:17no,
01:18:17I haven't seen him yet.
01:18:19Huh.
01:18:20That's weird.
01:18:21It's not like him to be late
01:18:22for things like this.
01:18:23so I hope that thing
01:18:24looked bad happened.
01:18:35Hello,
01:18:36Daddy.
01:18:37Joy,
01:18:38what are you doing here?
01:18:40I just thought
01:18:41we'd have a drink
01:18:42before the event tonight.
01:18:43Well,
01:18:44I'm pleasantly surprised,
01:18:45but, uh,
01:18:46you're still coming
01:18:47despite what happened
01:18:48with Claudia and Nick?
01:18:49Oh,
01:18:50Daddy,
01:18:50the company
01:18:50is what matters.
01:18:52And they're my family.
01:18:54I only want
01:18:54what's best for them.
01:18:56That's just great, Joy.
01:18:57I'm really proud of you.
01:18:59But, uh,
01:19:00you know how I hate being late.
01:19:01We have to go soon.
01:19:02Come on, Dad.
01:19:03Just one moment
01:19:04before Claudia
01:19:05soaks up all the attention.
01:19:08I know I'm not
01:19:09your favorite daughter,
01:19:10but I do work hard.
01:19:13Sweetheart, no.
01:19:15You know I love you, sweetheart.
01:19:17You know that.
01:19:19All right,
01:19:20uh,
01:19:20I guess one quick
01:19:21whiskey won't hurt,
01:19:22and then we go.
01:19:51Sweetheart.
01:19:52Sweetheart.
01:19:52Sweetheart.
01:19:52Oh.
01:19:55To father-daughter time.
01:19:58To father-daughter time.
01:20:03Ow.
01:20:11I don't feel well.
01:20:17Dad, what is it?
01:20:19Everything is spinning and I can't see clearly.
01:20:26It's probably just a dizzy spell. Wait here and rest for a second.
01:20:30Soon, Claudia, you'll finally be out of my way.
01:20:39Listen, Dad, while you're resting, we might as well be fishing and do some paperwork. Sign here.
01:20:44Paperwork? What?
01:20:46Yeah. Claudia asked for some formality thing for tonight.
01:20:50Claudia asked. Well, if Claudia said to do it, then it's fine, I guess.
01:21:09Okay, well, Noah Hart is here and he hates people being late. So where is my father?
01:21:14No, no, no. Don't worry about it. Just relax. He'll be here any moment.
01:21:18No, I just... I have this bad feeling like something happened.
01:21:22Okay, one second.
01:21:25Hey, Gabby. Can you please go to Jack Bridgerton's house? Make sure he's okay. Check up on him. Get here
01:21:29immediately.
01:21:36That's it, Claudia. Now all of Dad's inheritance is mine. I'm the CEO now.
01:21:43I need help. Help. I don't feel well.
01:21:47You should have thought about that before choosing Claudia over me our whole lives.
01:21:53And now? You'll have to die alone.
01:22:09What a nice celebration, huh?
01:22:12What? A little premature, wouldn't you say? We still haven't signed.
01:22:18Speaking of which, shall we?
01:22:20Mr. Hart, I am... I'm so sorry. I know that you hate to delay things and trust me, we do
01:22:28too.
01:22:29My father needs to be here. He's waited for this moment his whole life and he wouldn't miss it for
01:22:37the world.
01:22:41Well, it looks like he is.
01:22:48Hello? Mr. Richardson?
01:22:50You home?
01:22:58I don't mean to be disrespectful to your father, but I have a full schedule ahead.
01:23:03Are we gonna sign or what?
01:23:07Um...
01:23:07Uh, I think that your father would want us to go through with this and not lose this opportunity.
01:23:13You're right. And we can begin.
01:23:17Perfect. You two are about to sign a contract that's gonna change your lives.
01:23:31Stop!
01:23:35Stop!
01:23:38Everybody stop.
01:23:40Claudia has no authority to sign.
01:23:42Your signature there means nothing.
01:23:45Dad signed a new agreement today.
01:23:47Claudia is out.
01:23:49I'm the new CEO.
01:23:52My company.
01:23:53I'm the one who signs.
01:23:55Nick, what's... what's going on?
01:23:57There's nothing to worry about, I assure you.
01:24:00Joy has no authority here.
01:24:02She was fired and now she is desperate for relevance.
01:24:05No.
01:24:06Then explain this.
01:24:09Forging your father's signature now?
01:24:12Pretty desperate, even for you.
01:24:14No, Nick, this is...
01:24:15This is real. This is dad's signature.
01:24:18Is it?
01:24:24Joy Richardson, CEO.
01:24:27Shall we continue?
01:24:28No, no, no. This doesn't make any sense, okay?
01:24:30Jack never trusted you with anything.
01:24:32Oh, on the contrary.
01:24:34My dad trusted me with... his life.
01:24:37He told me I was the beloved daughter.
01:24:40Not the one who disappeared for three months without telling him.
01:24:43So, smile, Nicky.
01:24:46You're finally free of Claudia.
01:24:49You can have me now.
01:24:50We can become the power couple we were always meant to be.
01:24:54Where is dad?
01:24:57Did you do something to him?
01:25:00Relax, dad is fine.
01:25:02He just finally woke up.
01:25:04And you need to wake up too.
01:25:05I know you didn't want to marry Claudia.
01:25:08He wanted to marry me.
01:25:11So now you can.
01:25:13Let's become the most gorgeous and strongest couple in the industry.
01:25:23Sign with me.
01:25:27Come on, Nicky.
01:25:28What are you waiting for?
01:25:30If you don't choose me, then my first act as CEO will be canceling this merger.
01:25:36No, no, you can't do that.
01:25:37Noah has signed with us already.
01:25:38Ooh, but he already signed. See?
01:25:42Now all it takes is my signature.
01:25:45Come on.
01:25:46Nicky.
01:25:49If you don't sign, then she's going to destroy everything.
01:25:52I swear.
01:25:53No, no, you are my wife.
01:25:55The company matters, but you matter more.
01:25:57And I'm not going to lose you again.
01:25:58No matter what.
01:26:01Oh my God.
01:26:03Both of you are so stupid.
01:26:05But hey.
01:26:07Better luck next time, liver boy.
01:26:13Stop this immediately.
01:26:18Everything she said is a lie.
01:26:21She drugged me and forced me to sign.
01:26:25Yes.
01:26:34Your jealousy has turned you into a monster.
01:26:39I'm ashamed of you.
01:26:41You're no longer my daughter.
01:26:43I can't forgive you for doing this.
01:26:46You're no longer my sister.
01:26:47Oh, who fucking who?
01:26:49Since you're no longer family and you're not an employee.
01:26:54You're no longer here.
01:26:56Security!
01:27:01Wait, no, Claudia, what is this?
01:27:03You know, my instincts told me something bad happened to dad.
01:27:06And I think that maybe you had something to do with it.
01:27:09And I believe her instincts, so that's why I called security just in case.
01:27:13You can't. You can't do this.
01:27:15This began for attempted murder.
01:27:16Oh, you fat bitch!
01:27:18Don't regret this!
01:27:19I'm not finished with you!
01:27:23Oh.
01:27:25Fat bitch.
01:27:26It is a long story.
01:27:28Yes.
01:27:30Right.
01:27:32Well, if the family drama's over, shall we dare I say sign?
01:27:38Yes.
01:27:38Yes.
01:27:40Mmm.
01:27:49I do have one more thing to say.
01:27:52Claudia, I know that I ruined our wedding day, but you deserve nothing more than your dream wedding.
01:28:02So?
01:28:03You were born, you were born to be on display.
01:28:07Will you marry me?
01:28:13Yes.
01:28:14Oh my god, yes, yes, yes.
01:28:21Partners?
01:28:21In every way possible.
