Transcript
00:00:00At that moment, I had no idea the gallery's grand opening would also be the beginning of my worst betrayal.
00:00:12I am the best nude painter in New York and no one has bought my works today.
00:00:16It's a bunch of fucking bullshit!
00:00:18Be patient, Paolo. I'm sure there will be someone who will appreciate your work.
00:00:23Uh, patience is for losers.
00:00:30I'm gonna go take a nap in the office.
00:00:33Don't wake me up.
00:00:35Unless it's important, sweetie.
00:00:42For God's sake, Joanne, you're handling his exhibition while he slacks off?
00:00:48Reality check, your husband's a total jerk.
00:00:51Paolo has a bit of an ego, but he loves me.
00:00:58It's your stupid wife.
00:00:59We can celebrate your exhibition.
00:01:01Don't bring up Joanne.
00:01:02I can't even get up for that perfect brood.
00:01:05When are you gonna divorce that old hag?
00:01:07I've been in talks with Skycrest's agent, and if this works, we're going to make a fortune.
00:01:13And then Paolo can focus on his art full time.
00:01:16I can't stand how she bosses me around.
00:01:18When this Skycrest exhibit is over, and I get my guy, I'm gonna dump that wrinkly old mother's forehead, shouldn't
00:01:24we?
00:01:29Oh, Paolo!
00:01:30Oh, Paolo!
00:01:33Oh, my God!
00:01:36Joanne, no, no, it's not what you think.
00:01:38I am out there busting my ass, and you're in here fucking my secretary?!
00:01:43The two of you are fucking disgusting!
00:01:51Enough, Joanne!
00:01:53This is pathetic!
00:01:55If you even looked in the mirror, you're practically menopausal.
00:01:59Paolo deserves better.
00:02:00I want a divorce.
00:02:03I don't even have to think twice.
00:02:06You're nothing without me!
00:02:08You're just a bitter, aging woman.
00:02:13I can't believe it's taken me this long to know the real you.
00:02:29Hey, Ma. I'm here. Where are you?
00:02:49Are you okay?
00:02:50I just had the worst day of my life.
00:02:54How can someone carry so much pain, but still be so beautiful?
00:03:00Alan, you just missed my friend. She's an amazing curator.
00:03:04I can see that I'd love to mirror when I get the chance.
00:03:08Just don't tell her who I am, please.
00:03:10I get it. Gotta keep it mysterious. Sky Quest. Big famous artist.
00:03:17You know, Lily, I haven't had sex in two years.
00:03:22Paolo was always too busy.
00:03:24But really, he was too busy fucking my skinky secretary, Sue.
00:03:29Enough about that cheating lowlife.
00:03:33All older men do is take advantage of young women.
00:03:35I mean, just look at both our husbands.
00:03:38Age-guard relationships are always a disaster.
00:03:46You see? Your son checks in on you.
00:03:49Yeah, he is a sweet boy.
00:03:50I'm gonna die alone.
00:03:51I just hope he ends up with someone his own age.
00:03:54I mean, if he ends up with an older woman...
00:03:56I might just have to kill him, bitch.
00:03:58I don't blame you.
00:04:00Most older women are like me.
00:04:02Hot messes.
00:04:03The cheating husbands.
00:04:05Listen, girl. Priority number one.
00:04:08Protect your money.
00:04:09That's why I found you the best divorce lawyer.
00:04:14And...
00:04:14I hear he's a total hottie, too.
00:04:16So, even if you can't agree on his fees...
00:04:19At least you might get a little flit, a little bit.
00:04:23Oh my god, you are so cringe.
00:04:26Bathroom break.
00:04:28Your lawyer will be here so soon.
00:04:31Oh my god.
00:04:37The woman I met at the gallery.
00:04:40I didn't expect to see you here.
00:04:44And I didn't expect you to be so...
00:04:49Young.
00:04:58Whoa.
00:04:59Are all divorce lawyers such good kissers?
00:05:02No, you had it mixed up.
00:05:04Anyway, I'm Joanne.
00:05:07Alan.
00:05:09Hi.
00:05:10Let me get us another round.
00:05:12I need some liquid courage before I talk about my divorce.
00:05:16Okay.
00:05:24What are you blind? Just ruined my fucking shirt!
00:05:28I'll pay for it.
00:05:29Just take a check and leave me alone.
00:05:32That'll be 2,000 bucks.
00:05:33For a shirt?
00:05:35What?
00:05:35What?
00:05:36Does it pay your taxes and clean your house too?
00:05:38Relax, kid.
00:05:38I'm talking to your mom.
00:05:43Here's 10 grand.
00:05:45That's another hundred.
00:05:46So you can stop speaking.
00:05:49Bish, are you serious?
00:05:51You wanna take this outside?
00:05:54No.
00:05:57No.
00:05:59Come on.
00:06:00Go, go.
00:06:00No.
00:06:03Oh my god.
00:06:05Did you really give that bastard money?
00:06:07It was a fake check.
00:06:14You're incredible.
00:06:17Do I really look like your mom?
00:06:19You look beautiful.
00:06:24You're too young to know the difference.
00:06:26You don't know what you're talking-
00:06:50You're too young to know the difference.
00:06:51When we should stop.
00:06:53You're too young for me.
00:06:54You sure?
00:06:55Because you couldn't be anywhere right now.
00:06:58Oh, I just want you inside me.
00:07:02Okay.
00:07:18Shit!
00:07:19I brought my lawyer to Lily's house?
00:07:21How drunk was I?
00:07:28I brought her to my mom's place.
00:07:30I bet she'll be cool with it.
00:07:36We need to go.
00:07:37Now.
00:07:38Oh, come on.
00:07:39We could just stay in and cuddle all day.
00:07:41We cannot be seen here together.
00:07:43She must be worried since the divorce still isn't finalized.
00:07:47Okay, one shower and I'll go.
00:07:57I'll go.
00:07:58You alright, Joanne?
00:08:00Uh...
00:08:01I'm fine.
00:08:02Shit.
00:08:07Hey.
00:08:09What's up, Lily?
00:08:11Is anybody in there?
00:08:14No.
00:08:16I turned the shower on, but no water came out.
00:08:20But now it's working.
00:08:21Okay, all right, um, Paolo called.
00:08:27Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:08:29Basically, he's coming over
00:08:30and wants to talk about the divorce.
00:08:34Great.
00:08:38My husband's on this place.
00:08:39We gotta go, right now.
00:08:41Come on.
00:08:43What do you mean?
00:08:44Come, come, come.
00:08:51You know, you drive me off there,
00:08:52and my mom never did.
00:08:55I'm kidding.
00:08:56I'm kidding.
00:08:59Julianne, I really like you.
00:09:02I really like you, too.
00:09:06Which is why we needed to go, like, five minutes ago.
00:09:09If Paolo finds out, I lose everything in the divorce.
00:09:12And you lose your license.
00:09:14Right about that.
00:09:16I'm not a lawyer.
00:09:21Thank God.
00:09:22I should have known no real lawyer so long.
00:09:31Who the hell are you?
00:09:40Uh, Paolo.
00:09:42You must be Lily's kid, right?
00:09:45Shit, you've really grown up, man.
00:09:50Yes.
00:09:51Genius.
00:09:52He can just pretend to be Lily's son.
00:09:55Uh, Alan.
00:09:56Her son.
00:10:00Anyway, what's the matter?
00:10:04I don't have time for small talk,
00:10:06so spit it out or I'm leaving.
00:10:10I'm sorry for what I did.
00:10:12I was an idiot!
00:10:16Young girls, they, they're all so shallow.
00:10:20I mean, they're not, they're not beautiful and smart and deep like you are, Julianne.
00:10:27Please!
00:10:31Isn't that her soon-to-be ex-husband?
00:10:35What on earth could they be talking about?
00:10:39Let's, let's start over again.
00:10:41Please!
00:10:41I mean, no press, no lawyers.
00:10:44Okay, just us.
00:10:44We'll sort it out.
00:10:46I'll do anything you want.
00:10:49Therapy?
00:10:51Travel.
00:10:52You name it!
00:10:57I have one condition.
00:11:03And that condition is...
00:11:05Stay the hell away from me!
00:11:08I never want to see your face again.
00:11:11If you leave now, I'll spare you some dignity
00:11:13and make sure the investors remember you in a better light.
00:11:18Julianne!
00:11:19Keep your mouth shut!
00:11:22And we both win.
00:11:24The news hears about our divorce, we're screwed!
00:11:27Didn't think about that when you're screwing Sue in our gallery.
00:11:31You're making my life hell.
00:11:33I will drag you down with me.
00:11:41None of your goddamn business, kid!
00:11:47Fuck you!
00:11:51You okay?
00:11:52Couldn't be better.
00:11:54Thanks.
00:11:54You sure you don't want me to drive you home?
00:11:56Yeah.
00:11:57Uh, I think you should go too.
00:11:59You know, since this isn't your house.
00:12:03Right.
00:12:04Lily can't know about this right now.
00:12:06I gotta go.
00:12:13Call me.
00:12:17I'll think about it.
00:12:25Alan, where did our visitor go?
00:12:27That guy came by to harass his ex-wife, so I taught him a lesson.
00:12:30Oh, well, he deserves it.
00:12:33So, about last night, who was the girl you were with?
00:12:38That was Joanne.
00:12:40She was just here, actually.
00:12:42Wait, Joanne?
00:12:46Wait, that girl, Joanne.
00:12:48Right, Joanne.
00:12:51Is Alan home?
00:12:52I'm Joanne Mitchell.
00:12:54We met at a party.
00:12:55He's not here.
00:12:57You're dating that, Joanne?
00:13:00Isn't she a little tacky?
00:13:02Not at all, Mom.
00:13:03She's super elegant and classy.
00:13:04I mean, we're practically made for each other.
00:13:08Aren't you worried about the age difference?
00:13:10Mom, age doesn't matter when it's real.
00:13:13It was love at first sight.
00:13:16Okay.
00:13:17So, why don't you invite her to my birthday party, then?
00:13:20Okay.
00:13:26Oh, he's too young for me.
00:13:32I'm insane.
00:13:37So, my heart is drunk.
00:13:40Hello?
00:13:47This is Joanne.
00:13:48Is Alan there?
00:13:49Joanne.
00:13:50Sorry, you have the wrong number.
00:13:52Okay.
00:13:54Joanne!
00:13:55Hey!
00:13:57You're a girlfriend.
00:13:59I hope so.
00:14:00Come on.
00:14:01You're Al Skycrest.
00:14:03The famous artist.
00:14:04No one would say no to you.
00:14:06You don't know what I'm supposed to know about that.
00:14:09Okay.
00:14:11Hey, what's up?
00:14:12I've been waiting to hear from you all day.
00:14:18Hey.
00:14:19Hey.
00:14:25It's good to see you.
00:14:27Me too.
00:14:31Look.
00:14:32About that girl on my phone.
00:14:34She's just a friend.
00:14:36Who cares?
00:14:37It's not like I have any say in who you talk to.
00:14:40I want you to care.
00:14:51No, no, no.
00:14:52He can't be proposing to me.
00:14:56What?
00:14:57Are you going?
00:15:02A locket?
00:15:05That is so sweet.
00:15:10It's empty.
00:15:11We'll fill it soon.
00:15:12But right now, I have something more important in mind.
00:15:26You know this artist?
00:15:28This is my favorite.
00:15:30This is Al Skycrest.
00:15:31His work is just bold.
00:15:34It's beautiful.
00:15:36But there's still this hint of sadness.
00:15:40You can tell he's been through a lot.
00:15:43He's sensitive.
00:15:46That was really insightful, Joanne.
00:15:50Do you know how special you are to me?
00:16:05I'm late for Lily's birthday party.
00:16:10I actually have someone to be.
00:16:12Would you want to come with me?
00:16:15I'd love to, but I have dinner plans with my best friend.
00:16:18It's actually her birthday today.
00:16:21Okay, I'm going to go get ready.
00:16:42What a coincidence.
00:16:43Yeah.
00:16:44Maybe we're heading to the same place.
00:16:48Oh, hi.
00:16:57Long time no see, young man.
00:16:58How have you been lately?
00:17:00He didn't even acknowledge Lily.
00:17:02For a second, I actually thought he was her son.
00:17:04It's so ridiculous.
00:17:08Is this how you best your confidence?
00:17:10By screwing some minor?
00:17:13Are you okay?
00:17:15What did you just say to her?
00:17:16I'm okay.
00:17:21No wonder he couldn't get hard for you.
00:17:23He told me everything.
00:17:25How you went to his office and begged for him to take you back.
00:17:28Listen up.
00:17:29Listen up.
00:17:30He's mine now.
00:17:31Leave my man alone.
00:17:32Grandma.
00:17:34Nice diamond bracelets.
00:17:36Wow.
00:17:37It looks like someone's still using my money to spoil their mistress before our assets
00:17:41are officially split.
00:17:43Bullshit.
00:17:44Pell's loaded.
00:17:45You were begging him for money for years.
00:17:46Oh.
00:17:48Max out those credit cards while you can.
00:17:50After this phone call, they will be nothing but plastic.
00:17:54Grandma's having another delusional episode.
00:17:56Hi, Mike.
00:17:57I don't have time for this.
00:17:59Miss, the total for your hotel balcony and lunch comes to $4,000.
00:18:05It went through.
00:18:09Full of shit just like I thought, Grandma.
00:18:15Lie to me all you want.
00:18:16My cards are as good as gold.
00:18:19What?
00:18:20I'm sorry, miss.
00:18:21It looks like the card only covered the lunch.
00:18:23Could you swipe it again, please?
00:18:34Are you serious?
00:18:35Your stupid machine must be broken.
00:18:38Oh, should I call security?
00:18:40It looks like someone's trying to dine and dash.
00:18:43You old witch.
00:18:44You hacked my cards.
00:18:45Give me my money back.
00:18:49You evil bitch.
00:18:51You'll pay for this.
00:18:52No.
00:18:58Who the hell are you?
00:19:01Stay out of this.
00:19:04Enjoy your cake.
00:19:14Nice aim back there.
00:19:16Thanks.
00:19:17Who was that anyway?
00:19:19Oh, her?
00:19:20Just some woman my husband cheated on me with.
00:19:23Thanks for stepping in.
00:19:25Need time?
00:19:42Oh, God.
00:19:54Oh, God.
00:19:57Sorry.
00:19:59Don't mind me.
00:20:01Mom couldn't see us.
00:20:03Lily couldn't see us.
00:20:04She's not wearing your glasses today.
00:20:06I should go.
00:20:07My friend's waiting for me at the hotel.
00:20:09What?
00:20:19This must be Lily's son.
00:20:22Makes sense.
00:20:23Good skin.
00:20:24Polite.
00:20:25But terrible fashion sense.
00:20:28There you are.
00:20:29Hi.
00:20:29You must have met my son.
00:20:30I texted him to meet you at the door.
00:20:32Yep.
00:20:33He seems like a real gentleman.
00:20:34I'm glad to hear it.
00:20:36He's making his mom proud.
00:20:38Oh, so how'd it go with the lawyer?
00:20:41I'm kind of seeing him.
00:20:43What?
00:20:45But actually, the guy I thought was the lawyer wasn't.
00:20:49So, I got it mixed up at first.
00:20:51Oh, wait.
00:20:52Tell me everything.
00:20:53What's his name?
00:20:56His name's out.
00:20:57So, this is what you're doing now?
00:20:58Telling everyone that you slept with some younger guy?
00:21:03Hey, what the hell are you doing?
00:21:05What did I tell you about keeping my divorce quiet?
00:21:08So, now Sue tells me that you're already screwing some other guy?
00:21:11Do you want this in the tabloids?
00:21:14Do you seriously not understand how badly this could go for us?
00:21:18Skycrest is some, like, moody little genius.
00:21:20I mean, he can just win at any kind of drama like this.
00:21:23He'll pull out of our exhibition.
00:21:25Alan, go after them.
00:21:26Go help her, please.
00:21:27It's okay.
00:21:29Now you care.
00:21:30I just spent a month in Switzerland buttering up Skycrest's agent while you were busy fucking your side piece.
00:21:36The only reason this exhibition exists is because of me.
00:21:41I know what you do.
00:21:45Who's my main contact for the upcoming exhibition?
00:21:49Joanne.
00:21:50Right, I thought so.
00:21:51Don't give my number to anyone else except for Joanne.
00:21:59How's this?
00:22:00You give me Skycrest's agent's contact.
00:22:03You can just sit back and collect your cut.
00:22:06Sure.
00:22:07Give me 50% of the shares in your company, and I might consider it.
00:22:12Fucking out of your mind.
00:22:14I don't even need you to get to Skycrest.
00:22:15I can get to him myself.
00:22:18You.
00:22:19Convince Skycrest.
00:22:21In your dreams.
00:22:24What now?
00:22:25You're here to play knight in shining armor?
00:22:27Beat it, you little punk.
00:22:29Give me that phone.
00:22:30I'll call him myself.
00:22:36Lay one more finger on her, and I swear to God, you'll regret it.
00:22:47You'll regret this.
00:22:50Come on.
00:23:02Tonight, shouldn't we show that bitch Joanne who's in charge?
00:23:06Don't worry.
00:23:08Joanne's already out.
00:23:13Why can't I get into the gallery?
00:23:16Security says I don't have access.
00:23:20You're out, sweetheart.
00:23:21This is not the time for you and your little lap dog to be barking at me.
00:23:24Honey, you're just too emotional.
00:23:28That's why you should let Paolo handle these things.
00:23:33Alan?
00:23:36What are you doing here?
00:23:37You can go.
00:23:38I can handle this.
00:23:39Speak of the devil.
00:23:42It's okay.
00:23:43I might be able to help.
00:23:44It's not as simple as it seems.
00:23:45This investor is a big name.
00:23:46I bought this.
00:23:49Hey.
00:23:50This table's for adults only.
00:23:52Get the fuck out of here, little boy.
00:23:57Huh?
00:23:58Text your mommy to come pick you up?
00:24:00You might want to get that.
00:24:02To be important.
00:24:03Hmm.
00:24:10Yes?
00:24:10Uh, yes, sir?
00:24:12No, no, I hadn't realized that she had.
00:24:16Understood.
00:24:21Is something wrong?
00:24:25Joanne stays on as exhibition director.
00:24:32Either you two keep pretending to be the perfect married couple, or you're out.
00:24:38Period.
00:24:39Didn't you just say that you were making me the exhibition director?
00:24:42Why are you backing out now?
00:24:44Shut up.
00:24:45These are Al Skycraft's orders.
00:24:48We're doing this.
00:24:49Or he's pulling out.
00:24:52Looks like someone has a very powerful ally.
00:25:04Well?
00:25:07What?
00:25:07I've never met Al Skycrest.
00:25:09Why would he help me?
00:25:11Well, maybe you heard you're a professional curator.
00:25:15Who did you just text?
00:25:18I know people on Al Skycrest's team.
00:25:20I just, you know, delivered a message that...
00:25:23Or maybe you're actually...
00:25:26Al Skycrest.
00:25:33So you do know Al Skycrest?
00:25:37Well, I know his Asian.
00:25:38We're very, very close friends.
00:25:41Play your cards right, and you might just get Al Skycrest's best piece at your art exhibit.
00:25:45Then you're not bluffing.
00:25:47Not when it comes to you.
00:25:52Cheers.
00:25:54Cheers.
00:26:06Alan?
00:26:09Jeez, okay.
00:26:11What are you hiding, a naked girl?
00:26:13Worse.
00:26:14An unfinished one.
00:26:18That watch.
00:26:20Looks so familiar.
00:26:24Mom, what?
00:26:25I'm working.
00:26:26It's nothing.
00:26:27I'm just looking forward to this new piece.
00:26:31Okay.
00:26:32Okay.
00:26:52Mom, what are you doing?
00:26:53Oh, this is private.
00:26:55I didn't, I swear.
00:26:56I didn't, I didn't...
00:26:57I don't show anyone my unfinished work.
00:26:59Not even you.
00:27:00Come on.
00:27:01Alan, wait.
00:27:03I didn't mean to.
00:27:05He's never shut me out like this.
00:27:07But I guess he's not a little boy anymore.
00:27:10He's got his own secrets now.
00:27:12You know, his dad was 20 years older than me.
00:27:17I thought I could handle it, but it turns out age doesn't stop a man from going for a younger
00:27:23woman.
00:27:24Sam, I'm sorry.
00:27:26I just want Alan to find someone his age, settle down, and have the kind of happiness I never
00:27:33got.
00:27:37I shouldn't have shouted at mom like that.
00:27:39I should apologize.
00:27:48Hello?
00:27:51It's from my mom and Joanne.
00:27:56Alan?
00:28:07Hey, funny timing.
00:28:08I was just talking about you.
00:28:11I'm, uh, I met dinner.
00:28:12Who are you having dinner with?
00:28:13My best friend, Lily.
00:28:15I can't believe you two haven't met yet.
00:28:17I can't wait to introduce you.
00:28:19You said Lily?
00:28:20Yeah, I told you about her.
00:28:22She's like family to me.
00:28:24You guys have to meet.
00:28:27Oh, hey, I see you.
00:28:30Hello?
00:28:32Is everything okay?
00:28:34Yeah, I guess that wasn't him.
00:28:36I should get my eyes checked.
00:28:39He definitely saw me.
00:28:41Was he embarrassed to be seen with me?
00:28:48Joanne, hey.
00:28:49Ah, so I actually have to tell you who Harus is.
00:28:53So, that friend of yours, and Lily, she...
00:28:56No, you saw me, you saw her, and you still ran off.
00:28:59What?
00:28:59Is it so embarrassing to date an older woman?
00:29:02No, it's not when I'm...
00:29:03Don't touch me.
00:29:29Maybe I should give him another chance to explain.
00:29:49I just came to get my credit card.
00:29:51No, wait, Joanne!
00:29:52Seriously?
00:29:53You actually caught feelings for that granny?
00:29:55Shut up, Mindy.
00:29:56Yes, I caught feelings for that woman.
00:29:58And stop with the touchy shit, or we're done.
00:30:01Forever.
00:30:04Stop calling my mom up, Lily.
00:30:08You'll regret this out, Skycrest.
00:30:14Joanne, please, I can explain everything.
00:30:16Just open up.
00:30:18You can take your little empty locket and leave.
00:30:22I've had enough of your childish games.
00:30:26Joanne, please, it's all big misunderstanding, I swear.
00:30:28There is no misunderstanding.
00:30:30I am pathetic for falling for someone like you.
00:30:35You're young.
00:30:37You're rich.
00:30:38You're handsome.
00:30:40Why would you want to be with someone my age?
00:30:45I love you, Joanne.
00:30:50We are not right together.
00:30:52You're almost old enough to be my son.
00:30:55Actually, I have a friend who has a son your age.
00:31:00You know, I'm just glad we met.
00:31:02Because...
00:31:04No matter what, I still want to be with you.
00:31:07Even if you're 50 years older.
00:31:10Only artists and crazy people say things like that.
00:31:13I am crazy.
00:31:14Crazy in love with you.
00:31:16I can't live without you, Joanne.
00:31:18I mean, when you were walking away earlier, it felt like my whole world was just...
00:31:22Shattered.
00:31:40I want to introduce you to my mom.
00:31:43That's...
00:31:43fast.
00:31:44I mean, who knows?
00:31:46You might know each other.
00:31:47After all, you both swim in the same hard pond.
00:31:53Joanne's still running the exhibition?
00:31:56God damn it!
00:31:59When are we going to hit the mall?
00:32:01I still have to talk to Joanne about the exhibition.
00:32:03Seriously?
00:32:04You're so cozy enough to that old hack?
00:32:06It's me or her, Paolo.
00:32:08Truth.
00:32:10Get the hell out!
00:32:14So what's your mom like?
00:32:15Do you think we get along?
00:32:17Well, I mean...
00:32:18You're messing with my mannequin, bitch!
00:32:23I would never hit a woman, so you better leave on your own right now.
00:32:28It's alright.
00:32:30I want nothing to do with that loser.
00:32:32He's probably already groveling at some investor's feet.
00:32:35I'm done with his drama.
00:32:37Oh, I see.
00:32:38You're sinking your claws into some young boy, huh?
00:32:41What a desperate cradle, Robert.
00:32:43Watch your mouth.
00:32:44And get out before I call the cops on you.
00:32:51You all right?
00:32:53Yeah.
00:33:03Care to explain this?
00:33:05Sudden divorce?
00:33:07I have no fear where those rumors came from.
00:33:09If you can't quiet this mess, Paolo,
00:33:13you're through.
00:33:14You hear me?
00:33:16Then Joanne must pay.
00:33:17I'll make sure she's finished.
00:33:19You damn will.
00:33:21Better!
00:33:22For fuck's sake.
00:33:28So are you and Paolo divorcing?
00:33:30Was the power couple of the art world just an act?
00:33:32My marriage is private.
00:33:33Please.
00:33:34No comment.
00:33:35The losses could be over a hundred million.
00:33:37Who should be held responsible?
00:33:38Joanne has been my wife for years.
00:33:40We've been through it all.
00:33:42I stand by her.
00:33:43So, Paolo, are you aware your wife is pursuing a younger man?
00:33:46Yes, I'm aware.
00:33:48If Joanne wants to get into the inexperienced pants of a 20-something,
00:33:53frankly, I respect her decision as a feminist.
00:33:56I knew Paolo would never go out of his way to help me.
00:33:59Can you confirm you're an old cougar chasing younger men?
00:34:03I...
00:34:03Enough!
00:34:04All right?
00:34:05I'll take responsibility for the losses.
00:34:07I've already contacted Skycrest's agent.
00:34:09If he agrees, I'll be the sole organizer.
00:34:17Al Skycrest is here!
00:34:29I am Mr. Skycrest's agent.
00:34:30He has issued a statement that he is not canceling the upcoming exhibition.
00:34:34And that Ms. Joanne here will stay on as its director.
00:34:37What the hell is going on here?
00:34:40Look at this!
00:34:42Skycrest's social media account just followed someone.
00:34:46It's Joanne!
00:34:47He's never followed anyone before.
00:34:58Kids tend being all over the internet.
00:35:01Hey, Joanne.
00:35:03Rumor has it you're dating Skycrest?
00:35:07Spill.
00:35:08Are you actually seeing him?
00:35:14No, I'm not dating Skycrest.
00:35:16The media just ran with some stupid rumor.
00:35:19I honestly don't even know why he chose me as director.
00:35:22Well, maybe because he thinks you're way more capable than Paolo.
00:35:29You know what?
00:35:31I'm going to throw a party.
00:35:33Inviting the media.
00:35:35It's time to set the record straight.
00:35:41Aunt Lily!
00:35:43It's been a long time.
00:35:45Oh, we need to look so good together.
00:35:47We're just friends.
00:35:50Sure, sure.
00:36:02Hey, I'm kind of surprised for you.
00:36:04Oh, yeah?
00:36:05What is it?
00:36:06Well, let's just say...
00:36:08Yes.
00:36:13Hi.
00:36:14It's nice to finally meet you, Joanne.
00:36:16I've heard so much about you.
00:36:19Oh, Alan and I?
00:36:21Just friends.
00:36:23Don't get the wrong idea.
00:36:26Honestly, you're such a catch.
00:36:29You and Alan totally make the perfect couple.
00:36:33Wow, thanks, Mindy.
00:36:37So, uh, what is this surprise you have for me tonight?
00:36:43Maybe...
00:36:43Skycrest will make an appearance tonight.
00:36:45No way.
00:36:48Hey, I was thinking of...
00:36:50Maybe making this...
00:36:52Us...
00:36:53Public tonight.
00:36:54Right here.
00:36:55What do you think?
00:36:56This is the perfect time to reveal everything.
00:36:59I can't wait any longer.
00:37:01Joanne, I need to tell you something.
00:37:08My mom, she's...
00:37:09Joanne, come with me.
00:37:12Pal, I can get a smile from you.
00:37:13What are you doing?
00:37:16Play along one last time.
00:37:18You'll get the divorce papers tonight.
00:37:21Otherwise, I'll file a fault-based divorce.
00:37:25Adultery?
00:37:26Career suicide.
00:37:27And your little boy toy?
00:37:29I'll destroy him.
00:37:32Joanne, is it true you're dating a much younger man?
00:37:39No.
00:37:40No.
00:37:41That's just a rumor.
00:37:42I'm not seeing anyone.
00:37:52Wait.
00:37:58Aunt Lily?
00:38:01Aunt Lily?
00:38:02This phone?
00:38:03I just found it on a table.
00:38:05I didn't know you and Joanne were friends.
00:38:08What a surprise.
00:38:13Joanne?
00:38:14Oh.
00:38:15It's you.
00:38:17That woman just rejected you in front of the press,
00:38:20and you're still running after her?
00:38:23I'm sure she had her reasons.
00:38:25Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go find her.
00:38:30Mindy, have you seen Alan?
00:38:32Yep, and, uh, you dropped your phone.
00:38:35Thanks.
00:38:36Where did he go?
00:38:37Hmm, um, that way.
00:38:41Or maybe that way.
00:38:45Look, I know you like Alan.
00:38:47But from what I can see,
00:38:49you two don't really click.
00:38:52And you two do?
00:38:54Isn't it a little awkward?
00:38:55Dating your best friend's son?
00:38:58What are you talking about?
00:39:00Oops.
00:39:01Didn't he tell you he's Lily's son?
00:39:03Lily's son!
00:39:05Lily's son!
00:39:06Lily's son!
00:39:07Lily's son!
00:39:08Lily's son!
00:39:08You mean, you really didn't know?
00:39:11Alan is Lily's son.
00:39:14Your best friend's son!
00:39:17No.
00:39:18That's not possible.
00:39:20Call her!
00:39:21Ask yourself?
00:39:24Oh.
00:39:26Feeling guilty?
00:39:28Dating a guy 18 years younger is one thing.
00:39:32But dating your best friend's kid?
00:39:36That's not love.
00:39:38That's sick.
00:39:40You must already know.
00:39:42He's going to tell me tonight.
00:39:44I have to go find him.
00:39:45Did he tell you he had a surprise for you?
00:39:48How do you know that?
00:39:50Please.
00:39:50I've known him for years.
00:39:52Every time he's drained his inspiration from a woman,
00:39:55he throws her a little surprise before dumping her like trash.
00:39:59What do you mean inspiration?
00:40:01Oh my god.
00:40:01I promised Alan I wouldn't tell anyone.
00:40:05That he's THE AL SKYCREST.
00:40:24You okay?
00:40:26Don't overthink it.
00:40:27Only Alan's agent, his mom, and I know his real identity.
00:40:31He keeps his girlfriends a secret.
00:40:33Maybe you're just part of his process.
00:40:37You know?
00:40:38Dating older women.
00:40:40Stealing their bits of souls for art.
00:40:44Joanne!
00:41:09You've been off since the gala.
00:41:11Did Mindy say something to you?
00:41:13Yeah.
00:41:16I was just wondering,
00:41:17when the media asked me if I was dating someone,
00:41:21did that hurt you?
00:41:24No.
00:41:25It's okay.
00:41:26I know you didn't mean to hurt me.
00:41:28I get sometimes people have to lie.
00:41:32What's the biggest lie you've ever told?
00:41:35Um.
00:41:37I once told my mom a lie to skip school,
00:41:40but that was probably the biggest.
00:41:43Really.
00:41:45He never lied to her again.
00:41:52I have to take this.
00:41:58I'm telling her.
00:41:59Tonight I can't hold this in anymore.
00:42:01Alan, listen.
00:42:02Just wait a little longer.
00:42:04The studio.
00:42:04I'll pay a penalty fee if I have to.
00:42:06I just...
00:42:07I can't lie to Joanne anymore.
00:42:14Joanne?
00:42:29Joanne?
00:42:35Hey, I was thinking maybe we should get dinner tonight.
00:42:39That surprise that I mentioned, maybe we could do it properly this time.
00:42:44Sure.
00:42:52So this is it, right?
00:42:55Your grand farewell, Skycrest?
00:43:02I have something to tell you, Joanne.
00:43:05Now, I haven't been completely honest with you, but here it is.
00:43:10I'm Al Skycrest, and my best friend is your ma.
00:43:15My mom is your best...
00:43:17Your best friend is my mom.
00:43:27You look incredible.
00:43:40Only flowers?
00:43:44There's more.
00:43:53It's a bit young for me, don't you think?
00:44:00Joanne, there's something I need to get off my chest.
00:44:05The truth is, my real identity...
00:44:06I'm starving.
00:44:07Aren't you?
00:44:10Right.
00:44:11Let's eat.
00:44:13I'll have the truffle risotto, caviar toast, duck confit, oysters.
00:44:20Oh, the Wagyu tartare looks really nice.
00:44:24Quite an appetite today, huh?
00:44:25You have money to spare, right?
00:44:27Al Skycrest?
00:44:33Relax.
00:44:35Relax.
00:44:35I'm not going to waste this beautiful glass of champagne on your face.
00:44:42I should have known you were a liar.
00:44:44You pretended to be my divorce lawyer when we first met, remember?
00:44:48No, I can explain.
00:44:50I am such an idiot.
00:44:52I'm 36, and I'm still falling for some fuckboy's games.
00:44:57I actually thought you loved me.
00:45:07Wait, Joanne.
00:45:09I was going to tell you, okay, but I was scared.
00:45:12I wanted to tell you tonight, but I couldn't, okay?
00:45:15I'm in a contract.
00:45:16But I can't wait anymore.
00:45:18Yes, I'm Al Skycrest.
00:45:24Say something.
00:45:25Mindy was right.
00:45:27You can't stop acting.
00:45:34Every time he's drained his inspiration from a woman,
00:45:37he throws her a little surprise before dumping her like trash.
00:45:42Joanne.
00:45:45Joanne, wait.
00:45:47Joanne, please.
00:45:48Whatever Mindy said to you is not true.
00:45:51I didn't mean to lie to you, okay?
00:45:53You knew I was directing your exhibition from the start.
00:45:55Don't act like you admired my professionalism.
00:45:58You were just using me to fuel your inspiration before you kicked me to the curb.
00:46:04Didn't you say you never dated an older woman?
00:46:06Well, now you have.
00:46:09So what now, Mr. Artist?
00:46:31What the hell?
00:46:36Joanne, do you know that's my son?
00:46:39He just found out.
00:46:41I swear I had no...
00:46:42You're to disgust me.
00:46:44I never want to see either of you ever again.
00:46:47Mom.
00:46:48Mom.
00:46:52Joanne, please.
00:46:54Did you know from the beginning
00:46:56that your mom was my best friend?
00:46:57I can explain.
00:46:58No, you can't.
00:47:00And don't follow me.
00:47:02Joanne.
00:47:09Now this is what I call breaking news.
00:47:21This is where we first met.
00:47:25Why did you leave me, Joanne?
00:47:35She dumped you, didn't she?
00:47:38Come on, Alan.
00:47:40Mind you, help you forget about him.
00:47:52Finish this.
00:47:53You'll forget all your problems.
00:48:18You'll feel better if we take this off.
00:48:30Alan, you really should stop calling me.
00:48:35Relax, Joanne.
00:48:37Alan won't be calling you anymore.
00:48:40He's in bed.
00:48:41With me.
00:49:02Damn it.
00:49:03Alan and Mindy.
00:49:05Whatever.
00:49:06Why do I even care?
00:49:10Alan?
00:49:12Joanne, please don't leave me.
00:49:15Hey!
00:49:17Are you insane?
00:49:18I'm sorry, I just feel like I'm burning up and...
00:49:22Enough of your childish games.
00:49:24You were just in bed with Mindy
00:49:26and then you come here showing up like this.
00:49:29Will Joanne, please...
00:49:30Get out.
00:49:33Now.
00:49:35Alan?
00:49:36Alan?
00:49:37Alan, hey!
00:49:38Alan, wake up!
00:49:39Alan!
00:49:40Alan!
00:50:01You were weak.
00:50:03Oh god, you scared the hell out of me last night.
00:50:06I don't even remember anything.
00:50:09Holy shit, I didn't do anything stupid, did I?
00:50:13I called Dr. Smith.
00:50:16You know, you were drugged.
00:50:18Roofied.
00:50:22I only had a few beers.
00:50:26And then Mindy gave me a cocktail
00:50:27and then everything after that was blank.
00:50:30Mindy called me from your phone last night
00:50:33and said you were in bed together.
00:50:35No.
00:50:36No, Trine.
00:50:37I would never do that to you.
00:50:39She probably drugged me.
00:50:41I wanted to hurt you.
00:50:43It's okay.
00:50:44Whatever's going on between the two of you
00:50:45is none of my business anymore.
00:50:47There's nothing going on...
00:50:51Lily is my best friend.
00:50:53And...
00:50:54I can't hurt her.
00:50:58Okay, well at least come with me
00:50:59to see if we can make it better.
00:51:07Lily, look, I'm so sorry.
00:51:12I really didn't mean to...
00:51:16Alan, Lily invited me over for dinner.
00:51:19I know you've got some nerve showing up here.
00:51:21Get the hell out of my house.
00:51:23Hey, what's going on here?
00:51:25Aunt Lily, you scared me.
00:51:27Ask her what she did.
00:51:28She drugged me.
00:51:29Alan, you shouldn't have used me like that.
00:51:32I'm not just some stand-in for Joanne!
00:51:34What?
00:51:38He was drunk.
00:51:39He forced himself on me.
00:51:42If I had pushed him away at the time, I'd...
00:51:45Mom?
00:51:46Joanne?
00:51:47I would never do something like that.
00:51:49I swear.
00:51:50I swear!
00:51:51I think it's best you leave.
00:51:55Okay.
00:51:58Take one more step and you're no longer my son.
00:52:06It's all because of that bitch.
00:52:08What did you just say?
00:52:11I mean...
00:52:12She's just so unfair to both of you.
00:52:31Sue, right?
00:52:32You said you had some dirt on that bitch, Joanne.
00:52:34Damn right.
00:52:37You were cold, Alan.
00:52:39So don't blame me for playing dirty.
00:52:49I miss you, Joanne.
00:52:51Please, can we just talk?
00:52:53Alan, I think we need to end things...
00:52:54For real this time.
00:53:05Can we meet just one last time?
00:53:08Just once?
00:53:15I'm sorry, Alan.
00:53:16Alan, this relationship was never meant to be.
00:53:18It's only bringing pain to me, to you, to Lily.
00:53:24We were ignited by mistake.
00:53:26And now, it's time to put the fire out.
00:53:36I know there have been all kinds of rumors swirling, suggesting that Skycrest might not attend our power exhibition.
00:53:46I'm here to confirm that after my continued efforts, Skycrest will be joining us.
00:53:58Skycrest is here.
00:54:16Skycrest, you're known for never showing your face in public.
00:54:19Why attend this event in person?
00:54:21Well, I'm here for someone.
00:54:23Is it true you're dating someone?
00:54:24No.
00:54:25Not yet.
00:54:26She hasn't said yes.
00:54:28But I'll wait.
00:54:29However long it takes.
00:54:33Your little boyfriend is quite romantic, isn't he?
00:54:37You know what?
00:54:38I would actually like a word with Joanne, the director of this art exhibition, if you don't mind.
00:54:54Hi.
00:55:02Remember this place?
00:55:05It's where we first met.
00:55:10You can't just reveal yourself to the entire team.
00:55:13It's not romantic.
00:55:14It's immature.
00:55:16I don't care.
00:55:16We'll have to see you in one time.
00:55:19From now on, what we have is strictly professional.
00:55:22What we had needs to remain in the past.
00:55:25What?
00:55:31Joanne, I love you.
00:55:32No.
00:55:33I can't betray my best friend.
00:55:35This needs to end.
00:55:37Joanne.
00:55:50Joanne.
00:55:50Is it true you're dating someone?
00:55:52No.
00:55:53Not yet.
00:55:53She hasn't said yes.
00:55:54But I'll wait.
00:55:55However long it takes.
00:55:57Where did you?
00:56:06Mom.
00:56:09I'm sorry for everything.
00:56:16You don't have to say anything, Alan.
00:56:19You're a big artist now.
00:56:21Say whoever you want.
00:56:23Joanne broke up with me.
00:56:26I see.
00:56:28She said that friendship comes first for her, so she never meant to hurt you, Mom.
00:56:52Please, Lily.
00:56:53Can we talk?
00:56:54Can we talk?
00:57:15It's her.
00:57:17It's her.
00:57:18It's always been her.
00:57:23Lily, please.
00:57:25Let's talk.
00:57:26I didn't know Alan was your son until Mindy told me.
00:57:29If I'd known earlier, I never would have gone out with him.
00:57:32Mindy.
00:57:41I'll give you ten minutes.
00:57:43Let's talk.
00:57:45Thank you, Lily.
00:57:56Lily.
00:57:57I won't.
00:57:58Save it.
00:57:59Just focus on you not passing out again.
00:58:03I never meant to hurt you, Lily.
00:58:05I'm willing to do whatever it takes to be friends again.
00:58:11Even if I tell you to stay away from my son?
00:58:18She really does love Alan.
00:58:21All right, then.
00:58:24Listen to this.
00:58:25Someone recorded the three of us arguing.
00:58:27Makes me think that it was on purpose.
00:58:32Don't!
00:58:36It has to be Paolo.
00:58:39I'm putting an end to this right now.
00:58:41I won't let him ruin my life.
00:58:48Ma?
00:58:49I thought I heard Joanne's voice.
00:58:51Where is she?
00:58:51Yeah.
00:58:52She was just here.
00:58:53She went to go look for Paolo.
00:58:55Did I ever see Paolo?
00:59:05Joanne!
00:59:06Alan!
00:59:08Looking for Joanne?
00:59:10She's probably meeting her ex-husband.
00:59:12Probably getting remarried.
00:59:13Oh, enough with the lies.
00:59:15She's just using you.
00:59:16The moment she got that partnership with Skycrest, she tossed you aside like trash.
00:59:24Find out who leaked it.
00:59:25No trail, no screw-ups.
00:59:27Go clean this up!
00:59:29Get the fuck out of here!
00:59:32Clop!
00:59:33I'm surprised to see you so worked up about this.
00:59:36I actually thought you were behind this.
00:59:38Are you out of your mind?
00:59:39Why the hell would I sabotage my own exhibition?
00:59:43Because you want to ruin me.
00:59:44And you know how hard I worked on this exhibition.
00:59:47Don't forget who gave you your start, alright?
00:59:49You're an ungrateful bitch!
00:59:51Please, while I was pulling all-nighters designing for your clients, you were outscrewing my assistant in our bed.
00:59:59Don't place this around!
01:00:01I've made mistakes!
01:00:02Sure, fine.
01:00:03But we were good together.
01:00:04Imagine, you and me again?
01:00:07We would be unstoppable.
01:00:13Get the hell away from me.
01:00:14Are you okay?
01:00:15Did he try anything?
01:00:16Did he hurt you?
01:00:16No.
01:00:17Paolo and I were having a private conversation.
01:00:20You should go.
01:00:20But Joanne, wait.
01:00:21Just come with me.
01:00:22I'll talk to my mom.
01:00:25I'm willing to do whatever it takes to be friends again.
01:00:28Even if I tell you to stay away from my son?
01:00:33Actually, I've decided to give Paolo another chance.
01:00:39You're concerned getting back with this asshole?
01:00:41He doesn't deserve you, Joanne!
01:00:43Careful, while I'm still the man she's married to.
01:00:46And clearly, I still have a better shot than you do.
01:00:51So Mindy was right, Vinny.
01:00:53You are getting back together.
01:00:55Mindy.
01:00:58Believe Mindy, then.
01:01:01We're getting back together.
01:01:13Congrats, Joanne.
01:01:15You two are the perfect match.
01:01:17Great taste in art and no awkward age gap.
01:01:23You can both leave now.
01:01:30I can't wait to put a ring on your finger again.
01:01:34Don't flatter yourself.
01:01:36You're not even close.
01:01:38I can't wait to put a ring on your finger again.
01:01:51Joanne's back with Paolo.
01:01:53Alan's devastated.
01:01:55You heard her say that?
01:01:57She tossed him like trash the moment she landed the Skycrest partnership.
01:02:01What a cruel woman.
01:02:03Aunt Lily, I'll take care of Alan.
01:02:05I'll take care of Alan.
01:02:16Oh!
01:02:19Mindy, can we chat for a moment?
01:02:31Aunt Lily?
01:02:32Honestly, I really wish you were Alan's girlfriend.
01:02:37Really?
01:02:38Auntie Lily?
01:02:40Yeah, Joanne's delusional.
01:02:42She's like twice his age.
01:02:44Oh, I really want that woman just out of my life for good.
01:02:47Oh.
01:02:48I could help you get rid of Joanne, Auntie Lily.
01:02:52You know, if only we had something like that humiliating video that went viral.
01:02:59Funny that you mentioned it.
01:03:02That video?
01:03:03I made it.
01:03:05Joanne never deserved Alan.
01:03:07She's been using him this whole time.
01:03:10Finally.
01:03:10I found the person trying to ruin my son's reputation.
01:03:15Now, I just need a plan to stop her.
01:03:18Mom.
01:03:26Why the hell is she here?
01:03:28And what the hell were you two talking about?
01:03:30She brought you home.
01:03:31You should thank her.
01:03:33We had a nice chat.
01:03:34I really want her to be my future daughter-in-law.
01:03:42Also, I'm thinking we should all go to your art exhibition's opening.
01:03:45I want you to pull the plug on your deal with Joanne and sign with Mindy instead.
01:03:50That's bullshit.
01:03:51She's been lying to you, Mom.
01:03:53Sweetheart, why don't you go back home now?
01:03:55Let me talk some sense into Alan.
01:03:58Mom, what are you doing?
01:04:01Mom, what are you doing?
01:04:02I know Mindy's up to something.
01:04:04Let's just play along.
01:04:09Joanne, any comment on the rumors?
01:04:11You and Skycrest, is it serious?
01:04:13I'd really appreciate if we could keep the attention on the exhibition today.
01:04:21Joanne's right.
01:04:22Art should be the headline today.
01:04:25As for our relationship,
01:04:28we're strictly professional.
01:04:36Joanne, rumor has it you and Pal are just business partners now.
01:04:40Any truth to the breakup?
01:04:42Palo, is it true?
01:04:44As you can see, we're still...
01:04:46Exactly.
01:04:47We're still very much a team, both in business and in life.
01:04:56Joanne, I've got a big opening present for you.
01:04:59What a joke!
01:05:02You two, a couple, don't make me laugh.
01:05:07Joanne isn't some charming girl boss.
01:05:10She's a washed up husband who sleeps her way into partnerships.
01:05:14She seduced Skycrest like she always does.
01:05:17With that fake grace and those tired, old tricks.
01:05:30This is me being gentle with my ex's mistress.
01:05:34The homewrecker.
01:05:35Get out!
01:05:37Hello, are you just gonna stand there while this bitch humiliates me?
01:05:41Don't make a scene.
01:05:42Go fesh you nothing and we'll talk somewhere else, okay?
01:05:49We are done!
01:05:50You are a squirreless douche!
01:05:52No, baby, baby!
01:05:53Come on, we can work it out!
01:05:55Useless.
01:05:59You dirty, manipulative tramp!
01:06:02Playing the victim while assaulting others in public?
01:06:05You don't deserve to be up there.
01:06:07You need to get your filthy ass out of here right now!
01:06:11You can press charges, but I'll sue for defamation and invasion of privacy.
01:06:17See my private investigator?
01:06:20Traced the viral video and you and Sue leaked it.
01:06:26They even tracked the IP address.
01:06:28This is solid proof.
01:06:30Yeah, it was me.
01:06:32So what?
01:06:34Your little service act ends right here.
01:06:37You are no longer directing the Skycrest Exhibition.
01:06:41Says who?
01:06:43Skycrest himself.
01:06:52You are no longer qualified to be the director of the Skycrest Exhibition.
01:06:58I'm sorry for everything, Joy.
01:07:01Say it.
01:07:02Tell her she's out, Alan.
01:07:04Alan?
01:07:05Scared now?
01:07:06Too late.
01:07:07Hold on.
01:07:13Before I name my new director,
01:07:16I'd like to give her a special gift.
01:07:20A painting.
01:07:30Is this some kind of joke?
01:07:32No joke.
01:07:33This is the woman I'm deeply in love with.
01:07:38You played me.
01:07:40Played you.
01:07:41There's no room for lies in love.
01:07:43You and Sue both spread false, horrendous lies about us.
01:07:47They'll both be hearing from our lawyers.
01:07:49Alan, please.
01:07:50I did it all for you.
01:07:52Then you never really knew me.
01:07:54With Joanne by my side, I can keep creating a Skycrest.
01:07:58She's my muse.
01:07:59She's my muse.
01:08:00My truth.
01:08:10What are you going to call it?
01:08:13Friends.
01:08:14Because that's where all love starts.
01:08:16Going home.
01:08:18I'll be right back.
01:08:20I'll be right back.
01:08:24You can trust.
01:08:25I'll be right back.
01:08:25Your muse and Sue.
