00:30Only you could make the president of Meridian Global Capital's European offices fly all the way from London to Boston
00:35just to deliver a cake.
00:39Thanks, Diana. Do you have what I asked for?
00:43I really envy your wife. It's a custom Harry Winstead piece, just delivered from Janama and insured for nearly $2
00:50million.
00:52What kind of woman makes a man like you go to this much trouble?
00:56It's our 20th wedding anniversary gift, after all.
01:03After everything I've done for you, don't you think it's time you return the favor?
01:07Meridian is at a crossroads.
01:09You were the one who dismantled the Cole family's criminal empire and transformed Meridian into a legitimate global investment firm.
01:16No one understands the company better than you do. The board asked me to bring you back. Think it over.
01:22We agreed that once Meridian's restructuring was complete, I would step away.
01:26Ryan's about to graduate. All I want now is a quiet life with Claire. I'm heading home.
01:36Look at that. It suits you perfectly.
01:44Happy 20th anniversary, Claire.
01:47You're home.
01:49Hi, I'm Daniel Brooks. Claire and I went to college together. I also happened to be her boyfriend back then.
01:58I see.
02:01Just put it on the table.
02:03Come on, sit down. Everyone sit.
02:06Daniel, have a seat.
02:10By the way, Margaret, this is for you.
02:12A Scottish cashmere scarf.
02:14I remember you're always cold.
02:17You still remember that?
02:19Daniel, that's so thoughtful of you.
02:22And this is for Claire.
02:23A Lululemon workout set.
02:26Claire, this is much more your style.
02:29And this is for Ryan.
02:31A Rolex Dayona.
02:36That has to be a $40,000 watch.
02:40Thank you, Daniel.
02:41It's too expensive. Ryan can't accept it.
02:44Just because you can't afford it doesn't mean Daniel can't.
02:46That's pocket chunge to him.
02:48Ryan really shouldn't accept something this expensive.
02:50Claire, that's really nothing to me these days.
02:53Daniel, it looks like you've done very well for yourself in Europe.
02:57I'm now the managing director of North American Investments at Meridian Global Capital.
03:01I make around $10 million a year.
03:03The one with operations across North America, Europe, and Asia?
03:07$10 million a year?
03:08I'm back to welcome our CEO when he returns.
03:11I heard he's been living somewhere in Massachusetts.
03:14So what do you do for a living?
03:16I work as a mechanic at the auto repair shop Claire's brother owns.
03:19It pays the bills.
03:22The hours are flexible so I can take care of things at home.
03:27That explains it.
03:28You spend all day underneath cars.
03:31I doubt that leaves much time to take care of Claire.
03:34Claire was one of the most popular girls on campus.
03:37Margaret, I've met plenty of women during my years in Europe.
03:40But I can honestly tell you not one of them could ever compare to Claire.
03:44Now that you're back in Boston, we should get together more often.
03:51Daniel, why haven't you made any progress on the assignment I gave you?
03:58Something just came up at work.
04:00I should get going.
04:02You're leaving already?
04:04You and Claire haven't seen each other in so long.
04:08Stay and talk a little longer.
04:10Not tonight.
04:10Another time.
04:13Wait!
04:17Daniel!
04:18Are you okay, Daniel?
04:19I'm fine.
04:20I've got it.
04:21I'd better get going.
04:30Adrian, what are you doing?
04:35What did I do?
04:37What did you do?
04:38Daniel came all the way back to Boston to see me, not to be treated like some unwelcome guest.
04:43He knocked over the cake and didn't even apologize.
04:47How much could one cake impossibly cost?
04:49Daniel brought all these gifts and all this money.
04:52Doesn't that mean more than some cake?
04:54Dad, take a look at this.
04:56This watch could buy a hundred cakes like yours.
05:00Daniel came here out of kindness.
05:02Why do you always have to ruin everything?
05:04I never approved of this marriage.
05:06Claire just wouldn't listen to me.
05:08Look at Daniel.
05:10He's an executive at a global investment firm now.
05:13And look at you.
05:15Without Claire and her brother, you wouldn't even have the life you have now.
05:19And here you are, still arguing with Claire over a cake.
05:22Adrian, if you keep this up, this marriage is over.
05:24I gave up everything for Claire.
05:26I walked away from that life for good.
05:29But to all of you,
05:3120 years of everything I've done still means less than the man who walked away from her.
05:36I was going to...
05:37Enough.
05:38I don't want to hear it.
05:39Clean up this mess yourself.
05:40You're sleeping in the guest room tonight.
05:44I never approved of this marriage.
05:46Claire just wouldn't listen to me.
05:48If you keep this up, this marriage is over.
05:51Without Claire and her brother, you wouldn't even have the life you have now.
05:56Hello.
05:56This is Daniel Brooks,
05:58managing director of North American Investments at Meridian Global Capital.
06:08It looks like I'll have to speak to him myself.
06:17Adrian, if you keep this up, this marriage is over.
06:20Claire, I'm leaving for work.
06:24Claire, don't be mad anymore.
06:25I thought about last night.
06:27I shouldn't have lost my temper.
06:28I'm sorry.
06:30Claire?
06:32Are you in there?
06:42I can't keep going.
06:44I guess it's been too long since I last worked out.
06:46You good?
06:47We can skip tomorrow if you want.
06:48I'm good.
06:49You know I never back down from a challenge.
06:56Claire, I spent all those years in Europe without anyone I could really talk to.
07:00I was hoping we could use this time to really catch up.
07:08My house is right around the corner.
07:10What are you doing?
07:14Claire, you look incredible in that outfit.
07:19After all these years, you haven't changed a bit.
07:23Standing next to you, Adrian looks ten years older.
07:26He's actually two years younger than me.
07:28But he spends all day working at an auto shop covered in grease and sweat.
07:32He doesn't even bother cleaning himself up anymore.
07:34A man should at least take some pride in his appearance.
07:37Back in college, every guy had his eyes on you.
07:41Now, when people see the two of you together, who would ever think he deserves you?
07:53I've spent all my time keeping this family together.
07:56When was I supposed to care about how I looked?
08:03Claire, I can give you the life you deserve.
08:07Claire, I can give you the life you deserve.
08:22Heading to work?
08:23Yeah.
08:24We're out for a morning run.
08:26Want to join us?
08:27Claire's always loved her morning runs.
08:29Since I'm in town for a while, we've been running together.
08:32Hope you don't mind.
08:33Why would I mind?
08:35You don't owe him an explanation.
08:37Ready?
08:38Let's go.
08:48Adrian, I'd like to speak with you in person.
08:55Have a seat.
08:56You're president of European operations at Meridian now.
08:59I'm just a site coordinator.
09:03Adrian, back when we were rebuilding Meridian together, you were always so fearless and driven.
09:09That's the version of you I fell for.
09:12But I like the man you are now, too.
09:15You know that's never going to happen.
09:17What if there is?
09:19There isn't.
09:20Claire and I are going through a rough patch, but we'll get through it.
09:23You probably haven't had much time to see Boston, have you?
09:26Coffee is on me.
09:28And thank you for getting everything I asked for.
09:41Where were you this morning?
09:44What's going on?
09:46My brother just called.
09:48He said you didn't show up for work this morning.
09:50The revised construction documents you were supposed to deliver to the client's office still haven't arrived, and the client is
09:57furious.
09:57Now you're not even showing up for work.
10:00Do you even care about keeping this family together anymore?
10:03All right, Claire.
10:04An old friend came to Boston to see me.
10:06I just went to meet her.
10:07Man or woman?
10:10A woman.
10:12Seriously?
10:15Adrian, what exactly is going on?
10:17What kind of friend comes all the way to Boston to see you and makes you skip work?
10:20She's just an old friend I've known for years.
10:22We met, had a cup of coffee, and then I came home.
10:26Sounds to me like she couldn't wait to get rid of you.
10:28Take a good look at yourself.
10:30I must have been blind when I chose to marry you.
10:32I don't care how long you've known her.
10:34You're married to me.
10:35You should know better than to get close to another woman.
10:41Hi, Daniel.
10:42Is that really how little you think of me?
10:44Claire, the private welcome reception is about to begin.
10:47Come with me.
10:48I'll introduce you to some of the most influential people in Boston.
10:52Don't look at me like that.
10:53Daniel and I have known each other for over 20 years.
10:56What's wrong with catching up?
10:58Besides, Daniel is an executive at a global investment firm now.
11:02He has status and connections.
11:04Now look at you.
11:05Claire, do you remember what you just demanded of me?
11:09Adrian, what are you implying?
11:11Don't compare whatever is going on between you and that woman to my relationship with Daniel.
11:18Daniel, Daniel, the moment his name comes up, you become a completely different person.
11:23How can a grown man be this jealous and petty?
11:27I'm petty?
11:28If you can't live with it, then divorce me.
11:34Enough, I'm done arguing with you.
11:37Ryan is about to graduate from college.
11:40Daniel just said he could help him land an entry-level analyst position at Meridian Global Capital.
11:45I'm attending Daniel's Padez private welcome reception tonight.
11:49You're on your own for dinner.
11:56Claire, I never imagined you would go this far to defend Daniel.
11:59You know exactly where the line is in the marriage.
12:02But when it comes to Daniel, suddenly none of it applies anymore.
12:14Diana, can you arrange a job for Ryan?
12:21I can take care of Ryan's job.
12:24You don't have to go with Daniel anymore.
12:32I'm doing this for our family.
12:34Could you stop being so jealous for once?
12:37Take a good look at yourself.
12:39Even your job only came because I got it for you.
12:41What gives you the right to say any of this?
12:44Do you ever do anything besides doubt me?
12:47I'm not accusing you.
12:49I really can help Ryan-
12:50Enough!
12:51The more you act like this, the more disgusting you become.
13:07Adrian, do you even want this job anymore?
13:09I told you to deliver the repair port and insurance paperwork to the client.
13:13What's taking you so long?
13:14Get the revised paperwork to the client's hotel right now
13:17or don't bother coming back to the shop tomorrow.
13:37Come on, have a drink with him!
13:39Claire, Daniel's been waiting.
13:41Don't leave him hanging.
13:43All right, I'll drink.
13:48All these years, I've dreamed of being the one standing beside you.
13:58Kiss her!
13:59Kiss her!
14:05Kiss her!
14:06Daniel, don't.
14:07They're just giving us a chance to finish what we started 20 years ago.
14:10Kiss her!
14:11Kiss her!
14:26Kiss her!
14:33Kiss her!
14:44So this is your idea of a business event?
14:52Relax.
14:54It's just a party.
14:59C'est juste un déjeuner, c'est vrai ?
15:10Adrien, stop !
15:14Est-ce qu'il est vraiment très important pour toi ?
15:17Non.
15:19Claire.
15:30Adrien, please !
15:31C'est pas ce que c'était !
15:32C'est vraiment ?
15:33Alors, c'est ce que je pensais.
15:36C'est comme ça.
15:37C'est comme ça que tu as jouais chaque seconde de moi.
15:40C'est-à-dire qu'il m'a pas aimé.
15:42Je n'ai juste pas envie d'embrasser lui devant tout le monde.
15:46C'est-à-dire qu'il ne sait pas que tu es mariée ?
15:48Ou est-à-dire qu'il est-à-dire ?
15:49Je l'ai déjà dit.
15:52Tout ce soir était concernant Ryan.
15:55C'est quoi ?
15:57C'est-à-dire qu'il a te manger avec lui,
15:59choper avec lui,
16:01et de laisser lui kisser en front de tout le monde ?
16:03Je fais tout ça pour notre famille.
16:05Comment tu peux-tu dire ça pour moi ?
16:10Qui peux-tu-tu remercier pour aider Ryan besides Daniel ?
16:15Qui est-à-dire qu'il est-à-dire qu'il m'a aidée ?
16:18C'est-à-dire qu'il est-à-dire que Daniel est le seul homme qui peut-il vous donner
16:20une bonne vie ?
16:21C'est-à-dire.
16:22Il est le seul homme qui peut.
16:25C'est-à-dire qu'il est-à-dire qu'il est-à-dire qu'il est-à-dire ?
16:55D'accord.

21:29D'accord.
21:29D'accord.
21:29D'accord.
21:31D'accord.
21:34You know him?
21:34Of course.
21:35I'm Meridian's Managing Director of North American Investments,
21:38and I was specifically assigned to welcome him.
21:41I'm also hosting tonight's gala.
21:43The way you're talking, anyone would think you were the returning CEO.
21:49Adrian, this isn't the place.
21:51If you make a scene, you'll ruin everything for our family.
21:57Claire, not just anyone can walk into an event like this.
22:00If the returning CEO walks in and sees some nobody making a scene,
22:08what do you think that'll do to Ryan's job?
22:11Did you hear me?
22:13Stop making a scene and go home.
22:15What matters more, Ryan's future or your bruised ego?
22:18Go home now or we're getting divorced.
22:26Look, Miss Sterling is here.
22:28Who's causing a scene at Meridian's Gala?
22:36Miss Sterling, it's a pleasure to meet you.
22:39I'm James Wetman, founder of Wetsman Capital.
22:43Welcome to Boston.
22:44Miss Sterling, everything is going according to plan.
22:48Everyone, this is Miss Diana Sterling,
22:51President of Meridian's European Operations
22:53and one of the board's most trusted senior executives.
22:58Daniel, who authorized you to bring an uninvited guest in here?
23:04Miss Sterling, I'll have security remove him immediately.
23:06I meant her.
23:08Get her out of here.
23:11Her?
23:12But she's my dance partner tonight.
23:14Wait.
23:16She's my wife.
23:17Adrian, no one asked for your opinion.
23:21Mrs. Sterling, I still don't know how this man managed to get inside.
23:24You say she's your wife?
23:27Then why is she here as Daniel's dance partner?
23:29Mrs. Sterling, Daniel, Anne and I have been friends for more than 20 years.
23:33He invited me.
23:34How could I say no?
23:3620 years of marriage, is that less than his invitation?
23:38Claire, I invited you to be my dance partner, but you turned me down.
23:44Does our 20-year marriage really mean less to you than Daniel does?
23:49Adrian, do you understand what kind of event this is?
23:53You can't even hold down a decent job.
23:56What could possibly matter more tonight than Daniel helping Ryan get into Meridian?
24:03Mrs. Sterling, this man has no right to be here.
24:06He doesn't even have a dance partner.
24:11I can be his dance partner.
24:13Mrs. Sterling, even if you offered to dance with him, he wouldn't dare accept in front of me.
24:21Go home now.
24:22We can talk when I get back.
24:24If you stay here and keep causing a scene, we're filing for divorce tomorrow.
24:28I'm causing a scene?
24:30Adrian, I've spent every day trying to hold this family together and keep you happy.
24:34And what have you given me besides suspicion and criticism?
24:39You never gave me the life you promised.
24:42Claire, 20 years ago, you cried and told me all you wanted was a stable home.
24:50For 20 years, I never betrayed you.
24:54You think I've been wasting my life?
24:57I kept hoping you'd remember everything we built together.
25:00But now, what do you even care about anymore?
25:12This ring was meant for the love of my life.
25:14But it no longer means what it once did.
25:18Now, I'm giving it to you.
25:38Adrian, what is this supposed to mean?
25:40Claire, this is exactly where your choices brought us.
25:44My choices?
25:45What did I do wrong?
25:47I've been trying to help Ryan get a job and build a better life for this family.
25:51And you?
25:52All you've done is doubt me.
25:54If that's your idea of trying,
25:56drinking with Daniel, flirting with him, and kissing him in front of everyone,
26:01then I'd say you've done plenty.
26:03And since you're always threatening me with divorce,
26:06this time, I'll give you the divorce you've been asking for.
26:12Adrian, I'm warning you.
26:14Don't twist the truth in front of Mrs. Sterling.
26:16Claire was my invited guest tonight.
26:19You really think Claire would care if a broke nobody like you divorced her?
26:23Daniel, this is their marriage.
26:25Stay out of it.
26:27Mrs. Sterling,
26:29Claire and I were in love.
26:30We only separated back then because circumstances forced us apart.
26:34Unfortunately, some people were lucky enough to have her
26:37and never appreciated what they had.
26:41Since everyone is here tonight,
26:43there's something I want to ask Claire in front of all of you.
26:54Claire, will you give us another chance?
27:08Oh, my God.
27:09This is straight out of a movie.
27:11A successful man coming back for the woman he never stopped loving.
27:13It's like something out of a movie.
27:16At my age, if a man went this far from me,
27:18I'd be with him in a heartbeat.
27:20But she's still married.
27:23So what?
27:24Daniel is rich, romantic, and still looks incredible.
27:27Look at her husband.
27:28He always looks like he just came off a construction site
27:31and he's completely useless.
27:32He'd probably wreck of dust and sweat from that construction site.
27:36Anyone would know which man to choose.
27:38Claire,
27:39I've waited a long time for this moment.
27:42Tonight, in front of everyone here,
27:44I want to give you this ring
27:46and tell you how I feel.
27:50You're really not going to stop him?
27:52Stop him?
27:53To everyone here,
27:54I'm just an old pickup that's seen better days.
27:57But to me,
27:58you're a classic worth keeping.
28:01Claire,
28:02everyone is waiting for your answer.
28:09Maybe a little older,
28:10but still impossible to resist.
28:14Now you're teasing me too?
28:16Adrian,
28:17at a moment like this,
28:18you can still stand there laughing with her.
28:20Fine.
28:21If that's how little this means to you,
28:23don't blame me for humiliating you in front of everyone.
28:28Remember the choice you made tonight.
28:36Claire,
28:36I've dreamed about this moment for over 20 years.
28:39I'll treat Ryan like my own,
28:41and I'll give him every opportunity he deserves,
28:43as long as we're together.
28:48As long as we're together,
28:50nothing can ever tear us apart.
28:53Claire?
28:55Claire?
28:57Look around.
28:58everyone wants to see us together.
29:07Adrian,
29:08this is a five million dollar check.
29:10Take it,
29:11and walk away from Claire.
29:14Adrian,
29:15I'm giving you one last chance.
29:17Leave now,
29:18and I can pretend none of this happened tonight.
29:21You may be able to pretend none of this happened.
29:23I can't.
29:26That's more like it.
29:28Claire,
29:28can only be truly happy with me.
29:31Five million is enough to start over and find someone in your own league.
29:35His wife chose another man right in front of everyone,
29:38and he couldn't do a thing about it.
29:40Why would you stay with a guy who has no money and no future?
29:54Five million dollars.
29:56Is that supposed to use to impress me?
30:00Adrian,
30:01what the hell are you doing?
30:02Do you really think tearing up a five million dollar check proves anything?
30:05That check was his way of buying me out of our 20-year marriage.
30:09Do you really think I should have taken it?
30:11He has no idea how far out of his league he is.
30:15Five million is pocket change to some people here.
30:18A man like him could work his entire life and never earn half of it.
30:20But you didn't have to tear it up.
30:23That was five million dollars.
30:27Do you have any idea how long the average person would have to work to make that kind of money?
30:32You haven't changed at all.
30:33You're still just as reckless as ever.
30:35Have you ever even seen five million dollars?
30:38You couldn't make that kind of money in ten lifetimes.
30:43Since you've already chosen Daniel, what I do is no longer your concern.
30:47Whether I cashed it or tore it up, what business is it of yours?
30:49You!
30:50Claire, you really chose the wrong man all those years ago.
30:54Look at him, still acting like this.
30:56It's alright, if you will sorry for him, I can write him another check.
30:58I don't need your money, and I certainly don't need your pity.
31:01Claire has made her choice, so I've made mine.
31:07So, what reason do I have left to say no?
31:10Mr. Cole, I never expected your welcome back gala to turn out like this.
31:14Mr. Cole, this is your welcome back gala?
31:19Weren't you supposed to welcome Meridian's returning CEO?
31:22And yet you couldn't even recognize the man you were supposed to welcome.
31:32Mrs. Sterling, there has to be some mistake.
31:35I saw him just a few days ago.
31:37He was working as a mechanic at the auto where repair shop Claire's brother owns,
31:41even delivering repair paperwork to customers.
31:43How could he possibly be Meridian's CEO?
31:47Then allow me to formally introduce him to all of you tonight.
31:53This is Adrian Cole, founder of Meridian Global Capital and the company's returning CEO.
32:01Many of you may never have met Mr. Cole before,
32:04but inside Meridian, everyone knows who built this company.
32:08Without Mr. Cole, Meridian Global Capital, as you know it today, would not exist.
32:16Mr. Cole was also the man who led Meridian into Europe and built the European business we have today.
32:23But 20 years ago, he stepped away from Meridian's day-to-day operations,
32:27left everything he'd built behind and came to Boston alone.
32:3220 years ago.
32:38Margaret.
32:39Margaret.
32:51I've been waiting three years for that call from you.
32:55I left everything behind in London.
32:57I'm starting over with nothing.
32:59You're not going to think less of me, are you?
33:1220 years ago, Mr. Cole walked away from Meridian just to build a life with you.
33:24I'm cristal.
33:26I'm learning three years for that call from you.
33:29You're not going to think less about me, is that you're not going to be-
33:29Merci.
