06:08Dr. Lane I'm Lucas Reed got a minute
06:11he stayed from this morning all the way to now
06:13you know who I am
06:14yes I've been looking for you for three years
06:17or Alice the one and only successor to the world's best neurosurgeon
06:20so that's what he means three years married and he doesn't even know my face
06:25of course not
06:26so the guarantee
06:28stepping in front of that bottle all of that was because I'm Alice
06:32yes your hands couldn't be risen
06:34even so what does that have to do with you Mr. Reed
06:37there's a surgery I need done
06:39I've been to every specialist I can find
06:41no one will take the case
06:44he helped me today
06:45we're even one surgery then we're done for good
06:48I once heard the housekeeper mention that there's someone Lucas never got over
06:51is this her?
06:53three months at most
06:55the fragment is pressing on her optic nerve
06:57she's already blind
06:58her hearing is probably going too
06:59that's right
07:01the window was a year ago
07:02why wasn't she operated on?
07:05best odds anyone could give me were 50-50
07:08I couldn't accept that
07:10that's how much he loves her
07:11but then again why did he agree to marry me three years ago?
07:14a backup plan?
07:15just in case she didn't make it?
07:16bottom line
07:17he's trash
07:18total trash
07:21what if I'm not easy to find?
07:22or what if I can't guarantee the surgery works?
07:25you've waited this long
07:25what if she doesn't make it off the table?
07:27as long as you're alive
07:28I'll find you
07:30unbelievable
07:31you've been gambling with someone else's life this whole time
07:33and you think that makes you devoted?
07:34fine
07:35I've looked it over
07:36but I need to see the patient myself before I decide anything
07:38I know her condition inside and out
07:39I can speak on her behalf
07:41speak on her behalf?
07:42she's the one whose life is at stake
07:44I'm responsible for my patient
07:45not you
07:45if that's how you want to do this then I'm sorry
07:49I can't take the case
07:51why is she so hostile to me?

09:42either he's following me
09:44or I've got the worst luck
09:46Mr. Reed, what are you doing here?
09:47are you following me?
09:48why can't I be here?
09:52you've been drinking
09:54don't worry Dr. Lane
09:55your personal life is none of my business
09:58I just want to know
09:59in this state
10:01can you hold a scalpel steady?
10:03right
10:04he's worried I'll be too drunk to operate on his precious girl
10:06what I do and whether I can hold a scalpel is none of your concern
10:09if you doubt me find someone else
10:11I haven't agreed to anything yet anyway
10:13she really doesn't hold back
10:16I'll meet your conditions

10:37I need to know who she is
10:38on it
10:39I'll let you know the second I find anything
10:42but don't you think it's a little funny?
10:44what do you mean?
10:45Lucas Reed
10:45three years you never even saw him
10:47and the day you divorce you run into him twice
10:49either he's stalking you
10:50or fate has a really bad sense of humor
10:53let it go Sophie, he's in the past
11:02Dr. Lane
11:03um
11:04are you
11:05seeing anyone?
11:07no

11:10really awesome!
11:11Dr. Lane I really like-
11:12I'm single
11:12I'm also a widow
11:14I mean I'm divorced
11:20that's an interesting way to turn someone down
11:23yep
11:23believe it or not
11:24I actually wouldn't have minded just staying widowed
11:26her background's clean
11:28and marriage status is blank
11:29is she telling the truth or playing games?
11:35your personal life isn't my concern Dr. Lane
11:37the car's ready, let's go
11:40why ask so much if you don't care?
11:42weirdo
11:51Mr. Reed
11:52little miss knew

11:54so she insisted on coming out to meet you
12:03Lucas brother
12:04brother?
12:05are they actually siblings
12:06or is it something else?
12:08hey Lucas
12:10Ellie I've told you
12:11be good
12:12Lucas likes well behaved girls
12:17Ellie?
12:18same as my nook name
12:19so when Lucas agreed to marry me three years ago
12:21was it because of my name?
12:22that's disgusting
12:24Nancy, take her back inside
12:29you must be Dr. Lane
12:30I'm Sherry who's been looking after Ellie
12:32Lucas and I are old friends
12:33hi
12:34Sherry?
12:35why does that name sound familiar?
12:41the way she's looking at me
12:43like she knows me
12:44we only just met
12:47well well
12:48bitch, I underestimated you
12:52Dr. Lane, are you alright?

12:57I can show you to the room
12:59no need
13:00I already got a look just now

13:07one look was enough
13:08I've got the right person
13:10Mr. Reed?
13:11of course
13:11thank you Dr. Lane
13:17Dr. Lane, are you going to take the case?
13:21you really don't want me to do it
13:22no, I don't
13:23I mean yes
13:24yes, I definitely want you to
13:26Dr. Lane, that's not why I came out
13:27I just wanted to ask
13:28do you have a boyfriend?
13:29take a walk in
13:30but not smart enough
13:32do you go for someone like Lucas?
13:33he's so accomplished
13:35so successful
13:36pretty sure every woman would be into him, right?
13:38huh
13:38she wants to know if I'm competition
13:40you said it yourself
13:41he's accomplished
13:41he's successful
13:42I'm a woman, of course I'd be into him
13:44accomplished
13:44successful?
13:51why were you standing so close?
13:53you're the one who spun around
13:55anyway, did you mean that?
13:57obviously not
13:59no?
14:00then explain it to me Dr. Lane
14:03were you testing me?
14:04Dr. Lane
14:05you don't mind that Lucas was married before, right?
14:08his ex-wife wasn't good enough for him
14:10divorce was a good thing
14:12so please don't hold it that against him
14:13you hid your marriage so well
14:15but the divorce?
14:16you made sure everyone knew
14:17you really couldn't wait, could you?
14:20is that how you see her too, Mr. Reed?
14:22we weren't right for each other
14:24the divorce was the best outcome for both of us
14:26you never respected me
14:27or got to know me in the past three years
14:29best for us?
14:30that's rich coming from you
14:32good for you then
14:33I just hope you don't end up regretting it someday
14:37let go of me
14:37you're angry
14:39is it because I've been married?
14:41you're reading into it, Mr. Reed
14:42your marriage isn't my problem
14:44I just feel for your ex-wife
14:46those women won't stop running their mouths about her even now
14:48you've got the wrong idea
14:49she and I weren't like that
14:51she was just-
14:51sorry, I'm not interested
14:53and I'm not the one you owe an explanation to
14:55she is
14:57neither of us wanted that marriage
14:59I settled with her at the end
15:01we're even
15:01I never liked her
15:02I owe her nothing
15:03even?
15:04you can explain yourself to a doctor you just met
15:06but your wife of three years didn't deserve so much as a word
15:09incredible
15:10you don't owe me an explanation either
15:12I'm not interested
15:16Lucas
15:17I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought it up
15:18you did that on purpose
15:20don't play dumb
15:21I don't want it happening again
15:22Lucas
15:23don't you think you're paying an awful lot of attention to Dr-
15:26Dr. Lane?
15:28that's only because she's the surgeon
15:31yeah, that's all
15:34until that surgery is done

21:21but I'm not short on money
21:23a hundred million honestly doesn't do much for me
21:25really?
21:25then what would?
21:26go down to the main lobby
21:27shout
21:28I'm a jerk three times in front of everyone
21:30do that
21:31and I'll join Reed Medical
21:33are you serious?
21:34do I seem like someone who jokes around with strangers?
21:39all I wanted was to get even
21:40if I didn't have to keep a low profile
21:42I would have called you out already
21:44what's the matter Mr. Reed?
21:45get cold feet?
21:46or maybe you just don't love her enough to do something this small
21:50Dr. Lane
21:50a hundred million is serious money
21:52if it's not enough
21:53I can go higher
21:54so that's a no
21:55exit's that way, goodbye
22:01sir
22:02I looked into it
22:03the bar accident wasn't random
22:05Ms. Sherry paid those men
22:06there was a third one filming
22:07Dr. Lane wasn't lying
22:09take care of those three
22:12make it right on Dr. Lane's behalf
22:15understood
22:16tell me something
22:17why do you think she'd walk away from a hundred million just to make it look stupid in public?
22:21what does that say to you?
22:22sir
22:23it sounds like she might have feelings for you
22:26for me?
22:27feelings for me?
22:28feelings for me?
22:28so she's jealous
22:29that's why she wanted me to
22:32the divorce agreement is signed
22:34get it to her
22:35handle the paperwork at the courthouse in a month
22:38yes sir
22:39though sir, aren't you even a little curious what she looks like?
22:45why would I be?
22:46well if you walked right past her and didn't recognize her that only make it worse
22:49you've got an image to protect sir, you really want her telling people you're a deadbeat?
22:52my image needs protected by someone I'll never see again?
22:55ridiculous
22:56though I suppose one look won't hurt
22:58I want to see who's giving me this much grief
23:02Dr. Lane!
23:19Lucas!
23:21great
23:24I came in to get it changed, will you come with me?
23:34need me to call a wheelchair for you Mrs. Sherry?
23:38I just twisted my ankle
23:40I didn't mean to grab him
23:42don't read into it
23:43you've been practicing that move for a while, haven't you?
23:45works pretty well though, Mr. Reed seems to fall for it every time
23:48do I?
23:50taking her side, Mr. Reed?
23:52Dr. Lane, you like me
23:54I'm sorry, that's a condition Mr. Reed, you should get that checked
23:57if you don't like me, why do you keep going after the women around me?
24:01I
24:02I'm going after you, not them
24:04fine, doesn't matter
24:05I am not letting him find out who I am before the divorce is finalized
24:11called it, she likes me
24:13clear your schedule for the next month
24:17why?
24:19I think you know why
24:27Coco, let's go grab a drink
24:29two pains in the ass after work
24:32best night ever
24:33top me up, I can keep going
24:35sure you can
24:36let's get you home first
24:37I still can't believe it
24:39the Nanshore rich guy you told me about
24:41the cheating, useless one
24:45Lucas Reed
24:45what a piece of work
24:47is this how you talk about people behind their backs, Dr. Lane?
24:58that was wrong of me, I'm sorry
25:01though, why are you here?
25:02and don't tell me you're not following me
25:05following you?
25:06do I need your permission to come home, Dr. Lane?
25:10don't tell me that's your place
25:14fingerprint recognized, welcome home
25:16he lives across the hall from me?
25:18now, Dr. Lane want to explain what you're doing here?
25:21I think you're the one who's following me
25:27fingerprint recognized
25:32and you want me to believe this is a coincidence?
25:35I have no idea how this happened
25:36I'll find a new place tomorrow
25:42Sophie, the place you got me is right across from Lucas
25:45I need to find somewhere else, far, far away from that bastard
25:52Mr. Reed, it's quite late, is there something you need?
25:54still no contact with her about the paperwork?
25:56she's blocked me, sir
25:57after she left the estate, she never went back
25:58we can't locate her, but I'll keep trying
26:00find her, get it done, whatever she wants in compensation, agree to it
26:03you never once came to bother me though
26:05I'll give you what you're owed
26:06once it's done, we're finished
26:14Ms. Quinn, bad news
26:16Horizon Capital reported our streamers for misconduct and tax evasion
26:19Coco's phone?
26:21Jamie, it's me, Elena
26:22Coco isn't awake yet, talk to me, I'll handle it
26:25Horizon is LNR Group streaming division
26:27Word is Ms. Quinn crossed the LNR Group CEO
26:30He's coming after us personally
26:32The LNR Group CEO?
26:34Lucas Reed?
26:42The cheating, useless one?
26:45Lucas Reed?
26:46What a piece of work
26:51Some bad-mouthing and he goes this hard?
27:01Dr. Lane, I didn't think we were close enough for early morning phone calls
27:04Mr. Reed?
27:05Just because Coco cursed you out drunk, you're shutting her whole operation down over that?
27:09What are you talking about?
27:10Don't play dumb, did you or didn't you order a hit on her company?
27:13You're saying I went after your friend from last night?
27:15Didn't you?
27:17Look, what she said was on me, I'm so sorry, come after me if you have a problem, but call
27:21it off
27:21What makes you think I have to accept your apology?
27:29Sir, we never touched Ms. Quinn's company, why didn't you just say so?
27:34She came at me without knowing the facts, I don't owe her an explanation
27:39Ellie, I'm sorry, I dragged you into this
27:42It's fine, Lucas is doing this to get back at me
27:45I'll go deal with him myself
27:51I'm sorry Ms. Lane, Mr. Reed says he won't see you
27:54That's just petty
27:56Dr. Lane, what a surprise
27:59Morning Ms. Sherry, are you here for Mr. Reed?
28:01Lunch with Lucas, yes
28:03Dr. Lane, you're here for him too?
28:05He's not exactly easy to get in front of
28:07But I can bring you up with me if you'd like
28:13I'm not someone who shows up on demand
28:15Could you pass a message along?
28:16Tell him we're even
28:17And after this, we're done
28:27Sophie, do you have any contacts in the streaming world?
28:31This is about Coco's company?
28:33Some
28:35But the moment they hear it means going up against Lucas Reed, they'll back off
28:39Nobody in Nanshore wants that fight
28:42Then we handle it ourselves
28:44You'd use our own resources, that'll expose you as the person behind Nexus Tech
28:48Coco's my best friend, I have to
28:50Don't worry, as long as you're the face of the company, Lucas won't be able to trace it back to
28:55me
29:01I didn't think we were close enough for drop-in visits, Mr. Stranger
29:04Sharp tongue
29:07Stranger, huh?
29:08Then I'm asking you as a patient's family member, go check on the patient, will you?
29:12Family member, you want me to smile and go check on your girlfriend?
29:19The surgery went well
29:20She's not in danger, I'm a doctor, not a personal attendant
29:24Does it have to be like this every time?
29:26How I talk to someone depends on who they are
29:28You're nothing to me, Mr. Reed, why would I treat you any differently?
29:31I haven't done anything to you, Dr. Lane
29:33This morning your front desk turned me away, and now you're here asking for favors?
29:36All this for her, I wonder if your ex-wife knew, what would she think?
29:40My ex-wife?
29:42What does she have to do with any of this?
29:44Wait, the front desk turned you away this morning?
29:46Are you playing dumb?
29:48Sorry, I have patience to see Mr. Reed, I'm gonna have to ask you to leave
29:59Who gave the front desk that order?
30:01Ms. Sherry, sir, she told him to stop any woman coming to see you
30:06Bar her from the building
30:08Anyone who lets her in is fired
30:09Yes, sir
30:13Well, well, Mr. Busy Man asks me for coffee
30:16Alright, what's this about?
30:17I have a friend, hypothetically
30:19This friend has a misunderstanding with a woman, how does he fix it?
30:25A friend, right
30:27Has he been seeing that Dr. Lane I helped him look into?
30:29Easy, buy her a gift
30:31Though for someone at Dr. Lane's level, I wouldn't really know where to start
30:35I never said it was Dr. Lane
30:38That reaction says it all
30:39Okay, okay, my mistake
30:40Flowers work
30:41Or make her something
30:43Personal effort goes a long way
30:46People give me gifts
30:48I'm not the one who gives them
30:49Flowers? Handmade things?
30:52Absolutely not
31:00Which woman did he pick those up from?
31:03Disgusting
31:04That face
31:05Does she not like roses?
31:07Or does she not like getting them from me?
31:15Hey, Dr. Lane
31:17If there's something you need, Mr. Reed
31:19There is
31:23I haven't eaten
31:28So why do I care?
31:29Don't tell me you want to eat here
31:32Watch your tone, woman
31:34Hold this
31:42That's breaking and intendering, Mr. Reed
31:44I will call the police
31:52Discover it?
31:53I'm not a free floater
31:55I'm a neurosurgeon
31:56I run a tech company on the side
31:58You think I need that?
32:02Found out who's behind it
32:03Sherry, jealous of Coco
32:05Curred favor with Horizon Capital
32:06Behind everyone's backs to take her down
32:08Lucas wasn't involved
32:09So it wasn't him?
32:10Not at all
32:11Sherry did this on her own
32:12Lucas doesn't know a thing
32:18I really wronged him
32:20Since you're being so generous
32:22Fine
32:22Wait here
32:24Your advice was useless
32:25I figured it out myself
32:28What did you do?
32:30You just
32:31Threw money at it?
32:32Money solves everything
32:40What are you doing?
32:41It's almost ready
32:42Just go sit down
32:43I was waiting for Sophie to help me cook
32:44Then he showed up
32:45Fine, I owe him one
32:47Guess I'll wing it in the kitchen
32:51Here, let me
32:53Don't tell me you actually know how to cook
32:54Probably better than you'd expect
32:59Can't deny it
33:00Pretty people make everything look good
33:02Dr. Lane, ease up with the eyes
33:04I can feel it
33:10Okay, flowers
33:11Cooking
33:12What do you actually want, Mr. Reed?
33:14Is this about checking on your patient?
33:19Can I come by without an agenda?
33:21Can I come by without an agenda?
33:27Why does my heart do that when he looks at me?
33:31Go watch Netflix
33:32I've got this
33:32Right, okay
33:34I'm leaving
33:42It's ready
33:48About Coco's company
33:49I had it wrong
33:50I'm sorry
33:51Okay
33:52That's it?
33:53What else do you want me to say?
33:54You know, throw some shade, curse me out, whatever
33:56And why no explanation then?
33:57I'm a generous person
33:58And you were furious
33:59You wouldn't have heard a word I said
34:01So, eat
34:03I didn't know Lucas Reed had this side to him
34:08Sir, the afternoon meeting's off
34:10They rescheduled?
34:13Sir?
34:14Since when does he smile like that?
34:21Sir?
34:21Oh, okay
34:22Got it
34:23Since the meeting's canceled
34:25Should I schedule dinner with Mr. Channing this afternoon?
34:27No
34:28I'm going to the hospital
34:31Mr. Reed is way off today
34:33And why the hospital trip?
34:38Don't those need signing?
34:42That friend of Dr. Lane's, Coco
34:44Her company trouble might be on us
34:45Sort it out
34:46Actually sir, Nexus Tech has already stepped in
34:49Nexus Tech?
34:50They only operate overseas
34:52Why would they suddenly help a local streaming company?
34:54I'm not sure either
34:55There's no info on the big boss behind Nexus Tech
34:57No idea why they get involved
34:59Nexus is our biggest competitor for the overseas market
35:01We can't expand internationally with them in the way
35:03Look into the person behind Nexus
35:05Let me know as soon as you find anything
35:13Dr. Lane
35:16Ethan, you're finally back
35:18Business kept me off sores
35:19First thing I did when I landed was come find you
35:21Get in, I'm taking you to eat
35:22Call Sophie
35:23The three of us haven't eaten together in ages
35:26Grandma took us in
35:27Elena's always seen you as her big brother
35:29Now your feelings changed
35:31When will you tell her?
35:33Not yet
35:34When the time is right
35:35Then I'll sit out the first dinner
35:37You two catch up
35:39Sophie has a work dinner
35:40She'll catch up with us another time
35:49Isn't that Lucas Carr?
35:51What's he doing here?
35:55Is he here for Elena?
35:57He has feelings for her too?
36:00That's your ex-husband
36:02Are you two still in contact?
36:05Just work stuff
36:07Someone's been quietly digging into Nexus Tech's ownership
36:09From what I can tell, it's him
36:11Why would he investigate me?
36:13Nexus doesn't compete with L&R Group directly
36:15Not sure what he's after
36:16But don't worry, he won't trace it back to you
36:19Is there any chance you two two get back together?
36:20We never even met during the marriage
36:22He never cared about me
36:23No way we're getting back together
36:30She's never smiled at me like that
36:34Come have a drink with me
36:37Nathan
36:38What does it feel like to actually like someone?
36:41You've fallen for Dr. Lane, haven't you?
36:43I can see it
36:44Whatever you feel for her, it's different
36:45If it's real, go after her
36:48She's not picking up
36:49Doesn't sound like this is gonna be easy
36:54Who was that?
36:55Why did he pick you up and drop you off?
36:57Why didn't you answer my calls?
36:58He means Ethan?
36:59Let go of me!
37:00You're the last person who gets to ask
37:02And you don't get to decide whether I answer my phone
37:05Last person?
37:06You were supposed to be the man who treated me best
37:08But you left and cheated
37:10You have no right to interfere in my life anymore
37:11So because I was married, you're keeping the distance?
37:14When are you gonna stop hiding?
37:15Don't flatter yourself, I'm just
37:25Have you lost your mind?
37:37What are you doing here?
37:39Are you scared of me?
37:41You're talking nonsense
37:43Then why are you avoiding me?
37:45Because I don't trust myself not to hit you again
37:47I'm not avoiding anyone
37:48If not, why did you leave so early this morning?
37:50My commute is none of your business
37:51Unlike some people, I actually have a job to do
37:54You're this upset
37:55Was that your first kiss last night?
37:58Please
37:59I've kissed plenty of people
38:00You were honestly the worst
38:01What?
38:01Who are they?
38:02That's not your business either
38:03Whatever happened before, I'll let it go
38:06But going forward, that's not okay
38:08What are you even talking about?
38:10If you came about last night, I'm willing to forget it happened
38:12You can leave
38:14I already slapped him
38:16I spent all night thinking about how to apologize
38:18And she's more over it than I am
38:21Fine
38:22Good to know you're so unbothered, Eller Lane
38:24I guess I don't owe you anything then
38:27That was my first kiss
38:28And it went to that idiot
38:31Sir, trouble!
38:32Someone leaked your marriage
38:33They say you cheated with Miss Sherry
38:34She's getting trolled online, her accounts are flooded
38:36Find out who did this
38:37Now!
38:38Sir, the divorce isn't final yet
38:41This will hurt the stock price
38:42Hardly anyone knows the truth
38:43Should I reach out to your ex-wife and ask her to help clear things up?
38:48No
38:51She never came to me in three years
38:52I can't go to her now and I don't want her involved
38:57Dr. Lane, you've gone too far
38:58I only told you that he got married
38:59How could you sell that to the media?
39:00Yeah, wait!
39:01Dr. Lane out bowed Lucas Reed for cheating?
39:04No way
39:04I always thought she seemed so decent
39:08Do you have proof?
39:09Because if not, expect a lawyer's letter
39:11Barely anyone knew he'd been married
39:13Who else would it be?
39:14I can't speak for everyone else
39:15But I'd take a closer look at yourself
39:17What's that supposed to mean?
39:19A relationship with him officially, him to commit
39:21Fine, but leave me out of it
39:26I know you like Lucas, Dr. Lane
39:27But you can't just accuse me like this
39:29There's nothing going on between us
39:30Miss, chin up
39:31The one not loved is the extra one
39:33And make it to your fingers?
39:34All I need is a public apology
39:36Dr. Lane do that and we're done here
39:38Someone does owe an apology
39:49Here we go
39:49A billionaire saving his girl in public?
39:51I have never seen this in real life
39:53This is a textbook love story
39:54Lucas, why are you here?
39:56Don't be too hard on Dr. Lane
39:58It was my fault
40:00I should have kept my mouth shut
40:01I understand why she's upset with me
40:04I don't blame her
40:05Are you here to pile on too?
40:06Sherry, apologize to Dr. Lane
40:09Me?
40:10Lucas, I think you have this backwards
40:11The leak, the lie, the set up
40:14All you
40:14Don't think you need to apologize?
40:16So Sherry, stage the whole thing
40:18It's dark
40:19Lucas, there's been a misunderstanding
40:21It wasn't me, it was Dr. Lane
40:23You had your chance
40:25You're done working for me
40:27Ryan, hand her over to the police
40:33Yes, sir
40:33Lucas, please, I didn't mean for any of this
40:45How did you know to come?
40:46That's your idea of a thank you
40:48If it weren't for me, you'd still be the villain right now
40:51I could have sorted it out myself
40:53Fine, thanks
40:55That's it?
40:56If you're grateful, you have to actually show it
40:59It's getting late
41:00To show my sincerity
41:02Dinner at my place
41:03Let's see how long you last
41:05Sure
41:09Do you realize what you're saying?
41:10Don't come crying to me when you're keeled over
41:12How could I turn down your sincerity?
41:14I don't have groceries
41:15I drove here
41:16I'll take you
41:20I've got it
41:30Since when are they that close?
41:31I thought they were divorced
41:32Why are they still
41:37That smells so good
41:44Ow!
41:45Hold that
41:48You okay? Should I get you to a hospital?
41:53Did it blister?
41:54Let me take you to the hospital
41:59Breath on my neck you leave
42:01I'm fine
42:12Eth?
42:13If Lucas finds out how close Ethan and I are, he'll dig into it
42:16And that could lead him straight to Nexus Tech
42:19Etho!
42:20What are you doing here?
42:21Etho?
42:22How chummy
42:24You weren't picking up
42:25I grabbed dessert from your favorite place
42:27I can't believe he's actually here
42:29He doesn't seem to know she's his ex-wife though
42:31Ellie
42:32Who's this?
42:33What does he mean?
42:34Oh, Ethan didn't want Lucas to know that he's my ex
42:36My neighbor from across the hall
42:38I owe him a favor
42:38That's why he's here for dinner
42:42Sorry neighbor
42:42Didn't know you'd be here
42:43So I only got dessert for two
42:44An aisle I always liked
42:46Did you keep him here for me?
42:48I just bought those randomly
42:49What is he doing?
42:58Ellie, I haven't eaten
42:59Could you grab me some cutlery from the kitchen?
43:05So, neighbor
43:07I hear you've been married
43:09How come your wife isn't here?
43:12He has something against me
43:13He already knows I was married
43:14Did Elena tell him?
43:20You always remember
43:22You're okay with a whiskey sour neighbor?
43:25I'm fine, thanks
43:29What is going on with Ethan right now?
43:51This is overcooked
43:52And the soup's a bit flat
43:54Ellie, you can't serve guest food like this
43:57Is it?
43:58Elena seems to like it
43:59That's enough from me
44:01Anyone who doesn't enjoy it is welcome to stop eating
44:07Do you two have some kind of history?
44:09Of course not
44:10I've never met this man before
44:11What kind of grudge could I have against a stranger?
44:15None here either
44:16Fine
44:17Are you both done?
44:18If you're done, just leave
44:19I-
44:20The food
44:22It was too bad to finish
44:23I'll clean up before I go
44:25Some of us actually care about Ellie
44:29Ethan, please
44:30Cleaning up is what housekeepers are for
44:32I'll pass
44:33I had dessert sent over by the way
44:35Unlike some people, I brought enough for everyone
44:51Is he trying to make me explode?
44:55Sir, the slippers you asked for
44:57Your preferred style wins
44:58There's a new pair that's going to be straight
45:01There's another man here
45:02Wow, Dr. Lane is playing a wild game
45:10You can go
45:10You can go
45:14The most interesting thing that's happened all year and I'm being dismissed?
45:29Ellie only ever likes the one place
45:31All this?
45:31What a waste
45:33Change is good sometimes
45:35Right, Dr. Lane?
45:53Happy now?
45:54Both of you?
45:59Great, then you can both leave
46:15Say hi to your wife for me, neighbor
46:17We should all have dinner sometime, the four of us
46:21True, though I wonder
46:22Do you think she knows how little you cared?
46:24I imagine she probably despises you
46:27None of your business
46:38Sir, a fight? I'm downstairs
46:39How many bodyguards do you need?
46:40I'm worried you can't handle it alone
46:41Nobody's fighting
46:42Go find out who that man is
46:43And what he is to Dr. Lane
46:44Everything
46:45Already on it, sir
46:45His full name is Ethan Lane
46:47His background's buried deep
46:48I barely got anything
46:50But he's tied to Nexus Tech
46:51Seems like he's got serious backing
46:53Nexus Tech?
47:02Keep digging
47:04And the moment you have anything on whoever's running Nexus
47:06Tell me
47:10Yes, sir
47:11They know each other
47:12Is Elena connected to Nexus, too?
47:16Sir, Miss Sherry gets out today
47:18What should we do about her going forward?
47:19Pick her up
47:20But don't give her any work
47:21Since she went after me publicly
47:22There are consequences for that
47:24She's already out, actually
47:26She went straight to a hospital
47:28Which one?
47:29Pargrove
47:31Cancel the afternoon meeting
47:38You really love hospitals, Miss Sherry
47:40You went straight from the police station to here
47:42What, ready for round two?
47:44Take it!
47:45And disappear!
47:46Lucas is out of your league!
47:50And he's in yours?
47:51Don't push me, Elena
47:52Take the money, stay away from him
47:54And I'll forget everything that's happened
47:55Otherwise
47:56Otherwise what?
47:57You'll ruin my reputation?
47:58Have someone rough me up?
47:59Oh, I'm so terrified
48:07Bitch!
48:17How dare you hit me?
48:19That's a warning
48:20Leave me alone
48:21And I leave you alone
48:22Push me again
48:24And next time it won't just be a wine bottle near your throat
48:33And this one's for Coco
48:34Touch her again and I will come for you
48:36She is not someone you want to mess with
48:38So you're the one who saved her company?
48:40Yes
48:42Sir, I just got word
48:44Nexus Tech stepped in and sorted out Miss Quincy's company
48:46So you're the one who saved her company?
48:48Yes
48:50Though whoever's running Nexus
48:51There's still nothing on them
48:53Elena's the person behind Nexus
49:02Stay away from me
49:03This is your final warning
49:15Don't blame Dr. Lane, she didn't push me
49:19You think I pushed her too?
49:20I saw it, she fell on her own
49:21Nothing to do with you
49:22Lucas, I...
49:23Get her looked at
49:27So, what are you doing here?
49:30I was passing by
49:33Yeah, right
49:34I heard what you two talked earlier
49:37So you were the one who helped Coco
49:38But from what I know, that was Nexus Tech
49:40Are you connected to them?
49:42Nope
49:42I was just saying it to scare her off
49:44To stop her going after Coco again
49:46You actually believed that?
49:50That was close
49:54Sir, news on your wife
49:57Did you reach her?
49:59I did
49:59Everything's arranged
50:00She'll be at the courthouse tomorrow
50:01To finalize the divorce
50:02Should I go in your place as planned?
50:05Yes, sir
50:06Wait
50:07Sir
50:09So, neighbor
50:10I hear you've been married
50:12How come your wife isn't here?
50:14I'll handle it myself
50:16You don't need to keep passing messages
50:17Yes, sir
50:19We do need to sit down to settle this once and for all
50:21Once it's done, no one can use this against me
50:24And...
50:24I can go all in on Elena officially
50:33Tomorrow's the day
50:34You okay?
50:35I'm fine
50:35Just...
50:36Three years
50:37It's a lot to close a door on
50:39Stop thinking about it
50:40The second you sign those papers
50:42The new chapter starts
50:43Then we party
50:53Where is she?
50:53Ryan, she said there's traffic
50:55She should be close
51:12The woman I'm here to divorce is...
51:15Elena?
51:16The woman I'm here to divorce is...
51:19He actually came himself
51:20Fine
51:21Once that's done, I'll be totally done with him
51:28Dr. Lane, emergency brain cancer surgery needed
51:31It's too complicated
51:32No one else will take it
51:32Please, come back
51:33Okay, I'll be right back
51:38Where is she going?
51:40Isn't she my wife?
51:48Ryan, get to the courthouse
51:49Sir, aren't you already dead?
51:50Something came up, I gotta go first
51:51She looked rattled
51:52It had to be an emergency
51:53If the paperwork goes through, she's not my wife
51:55If it doesn't...
52:06What are you doing here?
52:07Did he figure it out?
52:08Is that why he's here?
52:09You left in such a rush
52:10I got worried
52:11So I followed
52:19There's something I need to tell you
52:21There's something I need to tell you
