00:00:00So he gave you 50 grand and gave you a job. This guy like, like, likes you.
00:00:05No, no, no. It's Byron Hanson. He doesn't do romance.
00:00:09Not to mention, he's my ex-fiance's uncle.
00:00:12From now on, we call her Aunt Cora.
00:00:15Are you serious?
00:00:16The girl just started her first shift.
00:00:17She's not my girl.
00:00:19Why are you being so kind to me?
00:00:21Cora, I think I...
00:00:23Wait, hold on. Sure.
00:00:25God, this girl...
00:00:27God, this guy...
00:00:29Why are you always the one that's getting yourself into trouble wherever you go?
00:00:31I used to be like you.
00:00:33Rich, wealthy, not a care in the world.
00:00:35It seems like you're trying to put my life back together.
00:00:38No. You did that.
00:00:40All by yourself.
00:00:42You are wearing the ring.
00:00:44You just haven't answered my question yet.
00:00:46Will you marry me?
00:00:48I need my engagement ring back.
00:00:51My mom said.
00:00:54It's a family heirloom.
00:00:56Is this because my family went bankrupt?
00:00:58It's not my fault.
00:01:00Your dad committed suicide and left a huge mess.
00:01:02Don't talk to me like that.
00:01:04It's not my fault.
00:01:06It's not my fault.
00:01:08It's not my fault.
00:01:10It's not my fault.
00:01:12It's not my fault.
00:01:14It's not my fault.
00:01:17Your dad committed suicide and left a huge mess.
00:01:19Don't talk about my father.
00:01:31Oh my god, he's so hot.
00:01:33I should talk to him.
00:01:35Get a grip.
00:01:37You don't stand a chance with Byron.
00:01:39He's the richest man in LA.
00:01:41There's something wrong.
00:01:43Who has it?
00:01:45He doesn't date.
00:02:01Oh.
00:02:03It's you.
00:02:05Hello, Mr. Hanson.
00:02:07It's been a while since we last saw each other.
00:02:09What was it?
00:02:11Last Thanksgiving with your family?
00:02:13Look, I'm gonna go order a drink from the bar.
00:02:15You want anything, Byron?
00:02:17No, I'm fine.
00:02:19Okay.
00:02:21What is that?
00:02:23That's Coraline.
00:02:25Easton's ex-fiancé.
00:02:27What are you doing here?
00:02:29Can't a girl get a drink by herself?
00:02:31Let go.
00:02:33I don't want to.
00:02:35I'm your fiancé's uncle.
00:02:38I guess you didn't get the memo, Uncle Byron.
00:02:40Me and Easton,
00:02:42we broke up.
00:02:44And?
00:02:46And...
00:02:48I say...
00:03:08What are you trying to do, Cora?
00:03:10Is this about Easton?
00:03:12Do you know what he did?
00:03:14He dumped me when I needed him the most.
00:03:16And then he had the audacity
00:03:18to ask for the ring back.
00:03:20Some nephew you have there, Mr. Hanson.
00:03:22Hmm.
00:03:24So this is about revenge.
00:03:26So what if it is?
00:03:28Revenge is a dangerous game, Miss Lane.
00:03:30What?
00:03:32I mean,
00:03:34revenge is a dangerous game.
00:03:36Miss Lane.
00:03:38Are you afraid, Mr. Hanson?
00:03:40Because I'm not.
00:03:42I want this.
00:03:52Don't say I didn't warn you.
00:04:06Help me.
00:04:08Help me.
00:04:10Help me.
00:04:22Fuck, fuck, fuck.
00:04:24I slept with Byron Hanson.
00:04:28What is wrong with me?
00:04:30I have to get a hold of myself.
00:04:36Good morning.
00:04:38Did you drive?
00:04:40What?
00:04:42I have a meeting, so I won't be able to drive you home.
00:04:44If you didn't drive last night,
00:04:46I'd call you a car.
00:04:48No, no, no. It's okay.
00:04:50I live close by.
00:04:52I can walk.
00:04:54Okay.
00:05:00Yes.
00:05:02Get the numbers ready.
00:05:04Make sure everybody's in the room before I get there.
00:05:06I'll be there in
00:05:0823 minutes.
00:05:10Goodbye, Miss Lane.
00:05:16Goodbye,
00:05:18Mr. Hanson.
00:05:24It's okay, Cora.
00:05:26It's not like you are ever
00:05:28going to see him again.
00:05:30You're good.
00:05:33You are a capable,
00:05:35smart, powerful woman,
00:05:37and you do not need
00:05:39a man in your life.
00:05:43Hello?
00:05:45Cora, your mother has woken up from her coma.
00:05:47I'm on my way.
00:05:49Hey, Mom.
00:05:51Cora, sweetheart.
00:05:53What happened to me?
00:05:55You had a stroke.
00:05:57It's okay. You're awake now.
00:05:59It's only up from here.
00:06:01How long have I been here?
00:06:03Three weeks.
00:06:05I thought that...
00:06:07But it's okay.
00:06:09Just focus on getting better.
00:06:13I'm sorry about the mess
00:06:15with your father. I'm so sorry.
00:06:17You've got me.
00:06:19We make a pretty good team.
00:06:21We'll figure it out.
00:06:23We should let her rest.
00:06:25It's going to be
00:06:27a long recovery process.
00:06:29Also,
00:06:31we should talk about billing.
00:06:47I'll be frank, Cora.
00:06:49Your mother's treatment will involve
00:06:51a lot of aftercare for stroke patients.
00:06:53She's been on
00:06:55life support for
00:06:57three weeks now.
00:06:59This isn't going to be an easy recovery.
00:07:01I understand. How much are we talking, Dr. Kim?
00:07:03Your insurance will cover some.
00:07:05But
00:07:07I would say about $50,000
00:07:09out of pocket.
00:07:11We've discussed
00:07:13your situation, and I know that this is going to
00:07:15be a lot of money for you.
00:07:17We could try a more conservative approach,
00:07:19but...
00:07:21No. I'll get the money. You just focus on gutting my mom better.
00:07:23She's
00:07:26all that I have left.
00:07:40Cora, what are you doing here?
00:07:42Hey, Cora, now's not a good time.
00:07:44I'm kind of in the middle of something.
00:07:46Look, Easton, I just need one simple thing.
00:07:48I need the $50,000 that you owe me so that I can...
00:07:56Fuck my life.
00:08:01Fuck my life.
00:08:03My uncle is here.
00:08:05Let's talk later.
00:08:09Cora!
00:08:11You and Easton are through!
00:08:13You can stop begging to get him back.
00:08:15What are you even doing here?
00:08:17I just want the $50,000 that he owes me.
00:08:19After everything
00:08:21I've given you, I think it's only fair.
00:08:23You can pay me in cash
00:08:25or give me back the stuff I bought.
00:08:27Your choice.
00:08:29I don't owe you shit.
00:08:31You know, I used to think of you as the daughter I never had,
00:08:33but
00:08:35now I'm so shameful
00:08:37coming to beg us for money.
00:08:39You aren't getting a dime.
00:08:41Oh.
00:08:43Things really change when you're broke.
00:08:45I just need the money to pay for my mother's medical bills.
00:08:47After
00:08:49everything happened,
00:08:51she couldn't handle the pressure
00:08:53and she fell ill.
00:08:55Not one dime.
00:08:57I just want what's mine.
00:08:59Easton asked for my engagement ring back.
00:09:01I think I can ask for my gifts back, too.
00:09:03Look.
00:09:052019, I gave you that Mont Blanc pen.
00:09:07$15,000.
00:09:092028, the Rolex watch on your wrist.
00:09:11$40,000.
00:09:132021, the Jojo Keith painting.
00:09:15And then 2022,
00:09:17the Land Rover sitting right out there.
00:09:19You gave that to me for my birthday.
00:09:22You can't ask for that back.
00:09:24You proposed and gave me that
00:09:26engagement ring. You can't ask for that back.
00:09:28Look, just give me
00:09:30the $50,000 and we never have to
00:09:32see each other again.
00:09:34I'll give you the money
00:09:36if you beg me for it.
00:09:48It's been a while, Coraline.
00:09:50How does it feel
00:09:52to be a nobody now?
00:09:54I wouldn't know.
00:09:56Well, the princess has fallen
00:09:58from her tower.
00:10:00Mia Thompson.
00:10:02Mia Thompson is your new girl?
00:10:04That's a few steps down
00:10:06in class, even for you, Easton.
00:10:08No.
00:10:10Who are you to talk class now, Cora?
00:10:12Besides, Mia
00:10:14is a wonderful young lady.
00:10:16Cora, can we
00:10:18talk in private about this, please?
00:10:20Talk in private? Absolutely not.
00:10:22I think my solution is far better.
00:10:24So,
00:10:26are you going to beg me or what?
00:10:28I'm not begging you, Mia.
00:10:30Wow.
00:10:32Somebody forgets her place.
00:10:34You think you're still an heiress?
00:10:36Your daddy committed fraud
00:10:38and offed himself.
00:10:40You have nothing now.
00:10:42You are nothing now.
00:10:44Mia. What?
00:10:47Well, it's no mystery why you didn't
00:10:49have any friends in college, Mia.
00:10:51You're a bully.
00:10:53What was that you said, Easton?
00:10:55Right.
00:10:57You would never be with Mia
00:10:59even if she was the last person
00:11:01on Earth.
00:11:03Well, I guess people change.
00:11:05I did
00:11:07not say that.
00:11:09Just as I thought.
00:11:11You're a liar.
00:11:13You little bitch.
00:11:15That's enough.
00:11:19That's enough.
00:11:21Uncle Byron.
00:11:23Easton,
00:11:25it seems your new girlfriend
00:11:27lacks manners. Uncle Byron, you don't
00:11:29understand. Cora is- Uncle!
00:11:31That title needs to be earned.
00:11:33Or did I miss the wedding?
00:11:35Are you married to Easton?
00:11:37Well, we are engaged.
00:11:39You don't want to piss off my uncle.
00:11:41I can't believe he's firing me.
00:11:43Let's just not
00:11:45concern yourself with these matters.
00:11:47Let's just go back and talk about the
00:11:49Maple Plaza project.
00:11:51Stop embarrassing yourself
00:11:53at my house. Can't you see we're
00:11:55busy? You know what? You're right.
00:11:57This was a mistake.
00:11:59Keep the gifts, Easton. I'll figure it out
00:12:01on my own.
00:12:03On second thought,
00:12:05consider them payment since you only
00:12:07date women who pay you to be their boyfriends.
00:12:09What's that called again?
00:12:11Prostitution. Consider it payment
00:12:13for being a man whore.
00:12:17That rude child!
00:12:19Byron.
00:12:21Let's reschedule. I have something I need to attend to.
00:12:23Wait! Byron!
00:12:27This is all Cora's fault.
00:12:29Byron almost agreed to give us the
00:12:31Maple Plaza project.
00:12:33It's okay, Mom. We can talk to Uncle Byron
00:12:35later. Seriously,
00:12:37Mia? Don't
00:12:40piss off my uncle. You won't
00:12:42like the outcome.
00:12:52Get in.
00:12:54Thank you
00:12:56so much for the ride,
00:12:58Mr. Hanson. Wait.
00:13:04It's $50,000.
00:13:06What?
00:13:08$50,000?
00:13:10$50,000.
00:13:12$50,000.
00:13:14$50,000.
00:13:16$50,000.
00:13:18$50,000.
00:13:20$50,000.
00:13:22What?
00:13:24You're not going to take it?
00:13:32Thank you
00:13:34so much.
00:13:36I promise I will pay back every penny.
00:13:38With interest.
00:13:40Like a loan. 3%.
00:13:42Of course you'll be paying me back.
00:13:44But
00:13:46under my conditions.
00:13:52I'll have you know,
00:13:54Mr. Hanson, I'm not like that.
00:13:56I know we had a one-night stand, but I'm not
00:13:58going to sell my body
00:14:00for money.
00:14:02So
00:14:04you think you're only
00:14:06worth $50,000?
00:14:22And
00:14:24that bar
00:14:26from last night,
00:14:28I own it.
00:14:30So you'll be working there until you can pay me back.
00:14:36Girl, for real?
00:14:38He just gave you a $50,000 check?
00:14:40Mm-hmm.
00:14:42What I would do with $50,000?
00:14:44I don't know.
00:14:46I don't know.
00:14:48I don't know.
00:14:51What I would do with that?
00:14:53Does he have any hot gay friends
00:14:55by chance?
00:14:57I don't know.
00:14:59Either way, I have to work off the debt at the bar he owns.
00:15:01Nice!
00:15:03So he gave you $50,000
00:15:05and gave you a job.
00:15:07This guy, like,
00:15:09likes you.
00:15:11No, no. It's Byron Hanson.
00:15:13He doesn't do romance.
00:15:15Not to mention, he's my ex-fiance's uncle.
00:15:17Even better.
00:15:19You can marry him and be the auntie
00:15:21of this lying, cheating, tiny-dick man, Charles.
00:15:23That is not happening.
00:15:25It is a huge help from Byron, though.
00:15:27Maybe after I pay off the debt,
00:15:29I can start paying my half of the rent.
00:15:31Or maybe I can get you a gig
00:15:33at the bar so you can actually
00:15:35perform your music for an audience.
00:15:37Don't worry about that.
00:15:39My music is not as important
00:15:41as your crazy situation.
00:15:43As long as I have a roof over my head,
00:15:45you'll have a roof over your head.
00:15:47Thanks, Ty-Ty.
00:15:49You're a true friend. Seriously.
00:15:51You're not ditching me like everyone else.
00:15:57I miss my dog.
00:15:59Oh, Mr. Pickle.
00:16:03So when do you start your first ever job?
00:16:05Tomorrow.
00:16:07Oh, no.
00:16:17You get your tips paid in cash
00:16:19at the end of every shift,
00:16:21and then your biweekly paychecks
00:16:23go through a direct deposit.
00:16:25You can check it on the ADP app.
00:16:27What's the, uh, ADP app?
00:16:29Lord, you haven't worked a day
00:16:31in your life, have you?
00:16:33I'm a fast learner, and I'll work hard.
00:16:35Mr. Jones kind of just sprung you on me,
00:16:37so just so we're clear,
00:16:39there will be no slacking off on my watch.
00:16:43Now, bring these drinks to table four.
00:16:46Uh, table four?
00:16:50Over there with the two gentlemen.
00:16:52On it.
00:17:06The girl just started her first shift.
00:17:08I'm busy,
00:17:10and she's not my girl.
00:17:12You dumped her in my bar.
00:17:14Your bar?
00:17:16I own 51% of the shares.
00:17:18Fine. Our bar.
00:17:20Anyway, just want to let you know
00:17:22she started.
00:17:24I didn't take her for the working type.
00:17:32Um, sir, everyone is here.
00:17:34Should I go ahead and start the meeting?
00:17:36No. Have them reschedule the meeting.
00:17:38Thank you.
00:17:44Wow.
00:17:46She's never distributed before.
00:17:48One Merlot and, uh,
00:17:50Long Island iced tea?
00:17:52Mm-hmm.
00:17:54Thank you.
00:17:58Hmm.
00:18:02Who knew former heirs
00:18:04would be capable of serving others?
00:18:10Nice job.
00:18:12So far.
00:18:16Thanks for showing me the ropes.
00:18:18Oh, we have a group of VIPs coming in.
00:18:20A bunch of trust fund kids.
00:18:22Take care of them.
00:18:24They tend to tip well.
00:18:26Okay.
00:18:28Oh, here they are.
00:18:30Just a moment.
00:18:32Here.
00:18:34Their usual. Table six.
00:18:36What are you waiting on?
00:18:38Go.
00:18:40What?
00:18:44Okay.
00:18:52Hey, guys.
00:18:56It's been a while.
00:19:00Can I get you anything else?
00:19:02Coraline?
00:19:04I can't believe my eyes.
00:19:06The Coraline is working
00:19:09as a waitress?
00:19:15The Coraline
00:19:17is working as a waitress?
00:19:21Guys, are you seeing this
00:19:23or am I just imagining it?
00:19:25Oh, Cora, this is sad, babe.
00:19:27Your dad didn't leave you any money after he.
00:19:29If you guys don't need anything else,
00:19:31I'll go. I have work to do.
00:19:33Hey, come on.
00:19:35We're just joking.
00:19:37How about you come have a drink with us?
00:19:39Be our entertainment.
00:19:41We'll tip you a few grand.
00:19:43You look like you could use it.
00:19:45What's a few grand, Coraline?
00:19:47Oh, wait. She's broke now.
00:19:49Let go.
00:19:51You still think you're hot shit?
00:19:53Oh, honey.
00:19:55You're nothing now.
00:19:57Do something.
00:19:59I kind of like this version of you.
00:20:01Hey, sir, please keep your hands to yourselves.
00:20:03Ouch!
00:20:05Bitch!
00:20:07Sir, are you okay?
00:20:09No, I am not fucking okay.
00:20:11I want this bitch fired.
00:20:13Sir, please.
00:20:15I'm sure we can work out a compensation.
00:20:17We can cover all your medical bills.
00:20:19Are you calling me poor?
00:20:21I am Josh fucking Snyder.
00:20:23Do you have any idea
00:20:25who my dad is?
00:20:27I am going to sue
00:20:29this whole fucking chain of bars.
00:20:31You're so fucked, Coraline.
00:20:34We're going to make sure nobody in the city
00:20:36hires you again, ever.
00:20:38I'd like to see you try.
00:20:58What are both bosses
00:21:00doing here today?
00:21:02Especially Mr. Hansen.
00:21:04He's never here.
00:21:06Oh, shit.
00:21:08That's Byron Hansen.
00:21:10No wonder he looks so familiar.
00:21:12Amy, what happened?
00:21:14Well, when I got here,
00:21:16Mr. Snyder was holding Cora
00:21:18against her will.
00:21:20She punched me in the fucking face is what happened.
00:21:22And it looks like you deserved it.
00:21:24Okay, get lost.
00:21:26I mean, who the hell even are you?
00:21:28This here is Byron Hansen.
00:21:30And you've heard of him.
00:21:32And this is our bar.
00:21:34And we don't appreciate you harassing our employee.
00:21:36Uh, Mr. Hansen,
00:21:38I...
00:21:40I had no idea that you...
00:21:42Harry, I want these three blacklisted
00:21:44from all of my properties.
00:21:46Oh, and Josh Snyder, right?
00:21:48Your father is Richard Snyder?
00:21:50Well, you should tell your father
00:21:52to start looking for new clientele
00:21:54because I am canceling his contract.
00:21:56You heard the man.
00:21:59Get the fuck out of our bar.
00:22:01Josh, this is all your fault!
00:22:11Thank you so much, Mr. Hansen.
00:22:13I'm so sorry. That's not gonna happen again.
00:22:15We need to talk. Now.
00:22:21Come on.
00:22:25What you did back there was
00:22:27really nice.
00:22:29I'm sorry for causing trouble.
00:22:31What the hell were you thinking?
00:22:33Punching a customer?
00:22:35I mean, what would you do if I wasn't here?
00:22:37How were you planning on getting yourself out of that mess?
00:22:39I asked him to let go and he didn't.
00:22:41And why didn't you call out for help?
00:22:43Why are you always the one that's getting yourself into trouble
00:22:45wherever you go?
00:22:47I mean, do you ever think before you react?
00:22:49You don't know me, Byron.
00:22:51I used to be like you.
00:22:53Rich, wealthy, not a care in the world.
00:22:55Which sent my mother spiraling
00:22:57into a coma.
00:22:59And then the bank took all of our assets.
00:23:01My dog.
00:23:03My fiance dumped me.
00:23:05And those three assholes back there
00:23:07used to be my best friends.
00:23:09They knew who you were?
00:23:11Why do you think they were joking with me?
00:23:15When you have money, people are kind to you.
00:23:17Try being broke.
00:23:19The world is not so kind.
00:23:21So you ask me why trouble follows me,
00:23:23it doesn't.
00:23:25You just don't know what it's like to lose everything.
00:23:27Don't worry, Mr. Hanson.
00:23:29If Josh sues the bar,
00:23:31I'll take full responsibility.
00:23:33He won't.
00:23:35Not unless he wants his ass kicked
00:23:37by his father.
00:23:39You're Byron Hanson.
00:23:41Who would dare?
00:23:45Well, I should get back to work.
00:23:51There you are.
00:24:07There you are.
00:24:09Is everything okay?
00:24:13There you are.
00:24:15Is everything okay?
00:24:18Everything's A-okay?
00:24:20I didn't see anything.
00:24:22We were just talking.
00:24:24Cora's had a rough night,
00:24:26so I'll be taking her home.
00:24:28Sure, just leave me short-staffed.
00:24:30No, not a problem at all,
00:24:32Mr. 51%.
00:24:34You can close the bar early if you'd like.
00:24:36Is Cora coming back?
00:24:38What do I tell Amy?
00:24:40I'll be back tomorrow, right on time.
00:24:42Sure. Okay.
00:24:44Cool.
00:24:46I guess.
00:24:50Interesting.
00:24:52There is a heart inside that machine
00:24:54that is Byron Hanson.
00:24:58Thank you for the ride, Mr. Hanson.
00:25:02Hey.
00:25:04Hey, hey.
00:25:06Uh, um...
00:25:08From now on, you can call me Byron.
00:25:10Give me your phone number.
00:25:12Technically, you are my employee,
00:25:14but if you ever get into any trouble again,
00:25:16you can just call me.
00:25:18Why are you being so kind to me?
00:25:20Uh, Cora, I think I just...
00:25:22Oh, wait. Hold on. Shit.
00:25:24Hey, Ty.
00:25:26I'm on my way home now.
00:25:28Pizza sounds great. Thanks.
00:25:32Uh, so your roommate's a guy?
00:25:34Yeah, Tyler.
00:25:36He took me in when the bank took my house.
00:25:38He's a true friend.
00:25:40Everybody else ditched me.
00:25:43Cool.
00:25:57Not this guy.
00:26:09Yeah, Tyler.
00:26:11He took me in when the bank took my house.
00:26:15He's a true friend.
00:26:19Hey, Ty.
00:26:21I'm on my way home now.
00:26:23Tommy.
00:26:25What does it mean
00:26:27when a man and a woman
00:26:29live together?
00:26:31I think it probably means that they're, uh...
00:26:33Like, what was the question?
00:26:35Ahem.
00:26:39Well, uh, sir,
00:26:41I think it probably means
00:26:43that they're together
00:26:45in a romantic sense.
00:26:51Tommy, I want you to look into Coralaine.
00:26:53I want to know everything about her,
00:26:55including where she lived before
00:26:57and what bank seized her family's asset.
00:27:01Uh, okay.
00:27:05I'll get started on that right now.
00:27:07Oh, and one more thing.
00:27:09Your sister dropped this off yesterday.
00:27:11He just missed her because he left early.
00:27:21Oh, my God.
00:27:35I've pushed and pushed
00:27:37to go past our boundaries
00:27:39but I didn't know
00:27:41you were
00:27:43prepared to meet
00:27:45Maybe I was mistaken
00:27:47thinking we were
00:27:49too bold
00:27:51Maybe I'm shaken
00:27:53from doing the impossible
00:27:55Sometimes
00:27:57I aim too high
00:27:59aim to infinity
00:28:01Swim along
00:28:04All the shots land
00:28:06where no one ever sees
00:28:08Why I never
00:28:10Wow, week three on the job
00:28:12and you already knocked out the hardest cocktail.
00:28:14When you're in desperate need for cash,
00:28:16hard work is the only option.
00:28:18I'm impressed.
00:28:20Honestly, this has been really fun.
00:28:22Right?
00:28:24Hey, I don't know your situation,
00:28:26but I know what you mean.
00:28:28I had to fight really hard too
00:28:30to stay off the streets.
00:28:32Hey, we booked a gig,
00:28:34an engagement party.
00:28:36The tip payout's gonna be fantastic.
00:28:38You busy?
00:28:40When is it?
00:28:42Next Saturday.
00:28:44The couple are from super elite families.
00:28:46You can expect five grand in tip, minimum.
00:28:48I'm in. Thank you so much.
00:28:50Yeah, we actually got it thanks to Mr. Hanson.
00:28:52He's the uncle of the groom or something.
00:28:54Is it, uh,
00:28:56Easton Patton and Mia Thompson's
00:28:58engagement party?
00:29:00You know them?
00:29:12I still can't believe we're going to
00:29:14your ex's engagement party.
00:29:16As a waitress.
00:29:18You got balls, girl. I give you that.
00:29:20I need to make money so I can go back to school
00:29:22and get a better job.
00:29:24I'm not turning down five grand
00:29:26or anything.
00:29:28Five grand used to be just a pair of shoes for you.
00:29:30You're a changed woman.
00:29:32Got that.
00:29:34Feels like forever ago.
00:29:36Okay, gotta go.
00:29:38See ya!
00:29:40You're a changed woman.
00:29:46Easton.
00:29:48I said
00:29:50that I wanted Taylor Swift
00:29:52for my engagement party.
00:29:54So why the hell are you
00:29:57telling me now that she can't come?
00:29:59Mia, her agent turned us down.
00:30:01What do you want me to do?
00:30:03Kidnap Taylor Swift?
00:30:05Don't be so unreasonable.
00:30:07Unreasonable?
00:30:09Should I remind you what my family
00:30:11has done for you?
00:30:13For your mom's company?
00:30:15Because I can ask my mom to take it all back.
00:30:21Because I can ask my mom to take it all back.
00:30:27You're right.
00:30:29I'm sorry.
00:30:31I promise you for our wedding
00:30:33I'll get Taylor Swift.
00:30:35Okay, jeez.
00:30:37And Beyonce for the reception.
00:30:39Happy?
00:30:41Fine, I'll let you off the hook this once.
00:30:43Just remember
00:30:45you promised.
00:30:57Why are you wearing a mask?
00:30:59Are you feeling sick or something?
00:31:01You know, post-COVID, big party.
00:31:03Just in case.
00:31:05Mr. Hanson's here.
00:31:19I did not think Byron Hanson
00:31:21would actually show up.
00:31:23I mean,
00:31:25Byron Hanson would actually show up.
00:31:27Why not?
00:31:29Isn't he East's uncle? They're family.
00:31:31Yeah, but I heard that Byron and Lydia aren't even close.
00:31:33They're like 18 years apart.
00:31:35Plus, I mean, they come from generational wealth.
00:31:37No one is close
00:31:39in a family like that.
00:31:41True.
00:31:43Not to mention the Hanson family has way more money
00:31:45than the Patton family, too.
00:31:47Hi.
00:31:53We haven't spoken much since that night.
00:31:55What's wrong?
00:31:57I thought he liked me.
00:31:59What the hell is she doing here?
00:32:01Is she here for Easton?
00:32:03God, this girl.
00:32:05Get a grip, Cora.
00:32:07There's no reason to speak with him.
00:32:09You don't need him.
00:32:11You are a powerful, smart, capable,
00:32:13caring...
00:32:16Husky on the rocks. Double.
00:32:26The irony.
00:32:30Cora.
00:32:32Yes, sir?
00:32:34Cora, is that you?
00:32:38It is you. What are you...
00:32:40Come with me.
00:32:42Excuse me?
00:32:46Sir?
00:32:48Let go, Easton!
00:32:50What the hell do you want?
00:32:52I need to get back to work.
00:32:54I should be asking you that question.
00:32:56What are you doing here? Trying to win me back?
00:32:58Win you back?
00:33:00You think I'm here to win you back?
00:33:02In this uniform?
00:33:04Why else would you be at my engagement party?
00:33:10Why else would you be at my engagement party?
00:33:12Believe it or not, Easton,
00:33:14I'm here to do my job and make money.
00:33:16Unlike you, I actually have to work.
00:33:18You should try it sometime.
00:33:20Why are you like this, Cora?
00:33:22You used to be so fun and sweet.
00:33:24Now, you're just
00:33:26work, work, angry, angry,
00:33:28yell at Easton.
00:33:30People change, Easton.
00:33:32I did, and so did you.
00:33:34Look,
00:33:36I've had a lot of time
00:33:38to think about this,
00:33:40and
00:33:42I really miss you.
00:33:46You know why I'm with Mia.
00:33:48You know I don't love her.
00:33:50How about
00:33:52I marry Mia
00:33:54for business, but you and I
00:33:56stay together, committed
00:33:58for love.
00:34:00I'll pay your bills.
00:34:02I'll buy you a new car.
00:34:04I'll get you your own apartment.
00:34:06Just come back to me, babe.
00:34:08Please.
00:34:12You want me to be your side chick?
00:34:14Don't have to say it
00:34:16like that. Let me tell you something,
00:34:18Easton Patton.
00:34:20We are never, ever
00:34:22getting back together.
00:34:24And for the love of God,
00:34:26grow a pair of fucking balls, you man child!
00:34:38Whoa there.
00:34:41Drinking on the job?
00:34:43Okay, okay.
00:34:45Just something to soothe my nerves.
00:34:47That is a lot of something.
00:34:51Why did Easton Patton want to speak with you?
00:34:53It's a long story,
00:34:55and it's not the place to talk about it.
00:34:57Valid.
00:34:59That was so weird, right?
00:35:01Mr. Hanson! Amy.
00:35:03A drink? Sure.
00:35:05Cora.
00:35:07Hiya.
00:35:09Mr. Hanson.
00:35:13Funny to see you here.
00:35:15Mr. Hanson, I asked Cora to come.
00:35:17I need an extra hand, and I figured she could use the experience.
00:35:19I see.
00:35:21Then keep up the good work.
00:35:23Oh, and try to stay out of trouble.
00:35:27Did that feel weird to you?
00:35:29Why does today
00:35:31have a strange feeling?
00:35:33I'm gonna go in the back room
00:35:35and check on the stock.
00:35:37Dylan, stock.
00:35:39Cora, the stock is here.
00:35:59Hello, Cora.
00:36:07Before you say anything,
00:36:09I'm just here to do my job.
00:36:11You don't give me trouble,
00:36:13I won't give you trouble.
00:36:15Don't be so tense, Cora.
00:36:17Just wanted to thank you for coming,
00:36:19even if you are here to
00:36:21serve us.
00:36:23Well,
00:36:25I better get back to serving
00:36:27your highness.
00:36:29You know I don't even love Easton, right?
00:36:31This is all business.
00:36:33Our families would make
00:36:35a strong alliance.
00:36:37He's not even good in bed.
00:36:39I feel so sorry
00:36:41for you.
00:36:43What was that?
00:36:45Four years of bad sec?
00:36:47You're marrying him, Mia.
00:36:49That doesn't make any sense.
00:36:51I don't know what you're talking about.
00:36:53I don't know what you're talking about.
00:36:55I don't know what you're talking about.
00:36:58Mia, that's a life
00:37:00of bad sex.
00:37:02Who should we really be feeling sorry for?
00:37:04Who cares about any of that
00:37:06when billions are at stake?
00:37:08If only your daddy didn't die.
00:37:10If only your daddy didn't die.
00:37:12This could all be yours.
00:37:14Instead you're just a dirt poor servant.
00:37:16You know, Mia,
00:37:18sometimes
00:37:20I wonder who hurt you.
00:37:28Look like you love me, Easton.
00:37:30This is going to be on the front page
00:37:32tomorrow morning.
00:37:34Oh, that's so cute.
00:37:36A kiss for the camera?
00:37:38The ring.
00:37:40Tell us about the ring.
00:37:42Oh, yes, of course.
00:37:44It's a six-carat diamond.
00:37:46It's a six-carat diamond.
00:37:48It's a six-carat diamond.
00:37:50It's a six-carat diamond.
00:37:52It's a six-carat diamond.
00:37:54It's a six-carat diamond.
00:37:56It's a six-carat diamond.
00:37:58And it's a family heirloom
00:38:00that's been passed down in the family
00:38:02for generations.
00:38:04My ring.
00:38:06Where's my ring?
00:38:13Oh, my goodness.
00:38:15That was my mother's ring.
00:38:17I'm sorry.
00:38:19I had it on my finger this morning.
00:38:21You saw me putting it on.
00:38:23It was two million dollars.
00:38:26What is going on?
00:38:28I don't know.
00:38:30Something about a ring.
00:38:32Where did you last see it?
00:38:34That ring is worth two million dollars.
00:38:36I don't know.
00:38:38I took it off to wash my hands.
00:38:40I put it on the counter and then...
00:38:42Wait.
00:38:44That's right.
00:38:46I saw Cora.
00:38:48She walked into the bathroom
00:38:50after me.
00:38:52What?
00:38:54You stole my ring!
00:39:02You stole my ring!
00:39:08Can you please stop recording?
00:39:10Wait, that's Coraline.
00:39:12Holy shit, what is she doing here?
00:39:14Isn't she Easton's ex?
00:39:16Yeah, but her father committed fraud
00:39:18and then killed himself.
00:39:20After that, Easton broke up with her.
00:39:23What are you doing?
00:39:25I know she took it.
00:39:27I left that ring on the counter
00:39:29and we were the only two in the bathroom.
00:39:31Just give me back my ring, Cora.
00:39:33What the hell are you talking about?
00:39:35I didn't steal anything from you.
00:39:37Okay, well then you won't mind
00:39:39if we do a little search, would you?
00:39:41Empty your pockets.
00:39:43You can't just search me.
00:39:45That's right.
00:39:47This is a catering service.
00:39:49We're not your servants.
00:39:52It seems like, to me,
00:39:54that you have something to hide.
00:39:56Hi, want to search my pockets?
00:40:08Thief!
00:40:10You know that ring is worth millions.
00:40:12You're going to jail, Coraline.
00:40:22I knew it.
00:40:24You're so desperate.
00:40:26Is this why you came here?
00:40:28To steal my ring?
00:40:30You set me up.
00:40:36As you all may know,
00:40:38Coraline used to date Easton
00:40:40and Cora
00:40:42has hated
00:40:44and bullied me
00:40:46since college
00:40:48and I'm guessing
00:40:50that she hates me even more
00:40:52now that I'm engaged to Easton.
00:40:54Cora,
00:40:58I know it must hurt
00:41:00to have the man that you love
00:41:02marry another.
00:41:04But a crime is a crime.
00:41:06I'm calling the police.
00:41:08Mia, wait.
00:41:10And who says the ring belongs to you?
00:41:12Uncle.
00:41:16Byron?
00:41:19What do you mean?
00:41:21Of course the ring is mine.
00:41:23Easton proposed to me with this ring.
00:41:25That ring is a Hanson family heirloom.
00:41:27It belonged to my mother,
00:41:29Rosalinda Hanson
00:41:31and I didn't even know it was taken from the vault.
00:41:33So really,
00:41:35who's the thief?
00:41:37So really,
00:41:39who's the thief?
00:41:43What the heck just happened?
00:41:45Sounds like to me Easton proposed with the ring
00:41:48to Byron.
00:41:50How embarrassing.
00:41:54Say something, Easton.
00:41:58Byron,
00:42:00I am your sister.
00:42:02That ring belonged to our mother.
00:42:04And you took it away from me behind my back.
00:42:06Byron, how could you say something like that?
00:42:08Why are you
00:42:10helping this outsider
00:42:12against your own family?
00:42:14For the last time,
00:42:16he had probably slipped it in my pocket
00:42:18when she cornered me in the storage room.
00:42:20I believe you.
00:42:22You do?
00:42:24Without a doubt.
00:42:28I believe you.
00:42:30You do?
00:42:32Without a doubt.
00:42:34And this is just another piss poor effort at framing someone.
00:42:36Seems it runs in the family.
00:42:38Now, my mother's ring.
00:42:40No.
00:42:42No, please.
00:42:45Byron, you can't do this.
00:42:47Lydia, if you want to dispute our late mother's will,
00:42:49we can in court.
00:42:51But need I remind you,
00:42:53the deal that you signed when you married into the Patton family
00:42:55just so happens that my
00:42:57lawyer friend is here today.
00:42:59Hey, Harry.
00:43:01Right.
00:43:03Lydia,
00:43:05if I remember correctly,
00:43:07you took a cash out of $20 million
00:43:09when you married into the Patton family.
00:43:11Thus, relinquishing you
00:43:14your inheritance rights.
00:43:16Byron, how can you do this to your own sister?
00:43:18You are my sister.
00:43:20That's why I gave you access to the family vault
00:43:22in good faith.
00:43:24And I could take that away just as easily from you.
00:43:26Now, once again,
00:43:28my mother's ring.
00:43:36Now, once again,
00:43:38my mother's ring.
00:43:40Don't make me call the police.
00:43:43The press are right outside and that won't look pretty.
00:44:05I told you.
00:44:10If you like it, it's yours.
00:44:13I can't take this.
00:44:16I feel like I ruined the party.
00:44:18Shall we go?
00:44:20Let's.
00:44:22Harry.
00:44:30This is all your fault!
00:44:32Oh!
00:44:34Byron!
00:44:36You are so fucked.
00:44:38Byron!
00:44:40You are so fucked.
00:44:42Okay, let's go.
00:44:44You're bleeding.
00:44:56Let's go.
00:44:58Hey, Cora.
00:45:00Cora, call an ambulance now.
00:45:02I'm calling right now.
00:45:04Cora, please.
00:45:07Okay.
00:45:17You.
00:45:19You did this.
00:45:21What this is going to do to my family,
00:45:23I can't, I can't...
00:45:25There can only be one winner, Thomas.
00:45:27I trusted you.
00:45:30You framed me.
00:45:32Don't worry.
00:45:34Insider trading, maximum jail time is 20 years.
00:45:36If you find a good lawyer,
00:45:38you should be out in 10.
00:45:40Good luck affording one now.
00:46:00Janet, can you get that?
00:46:22Janet, can you get that?
00:46:24Janet!
00:46:36Special Agent Joey Murphy.
00:46:38Is, uh, Thomas Lane home?
00:46:40Um, I'm his daughter.
00:46:42What's going on?
00:46:48What's going on?
00:46:50I think it's best if we speak to him directly.
00:46:53I'm not speaking with anyone unless you tell me what's going on.
00:46:55We believe he's involved with financial fraud
00:46:57and insider trading.
00:46:59Uh, my dad would never do that.
00:47:01He's kind and smart and...
00:47:15I did it, Rose.
00:47:17I picked something like shells off.
00:47:19Hey, don't look.
00:47:22Don't look.
00:47:30Oh, Cora, hey, you're awake.
00:47:32Hi, Aaron.
00:47:34Hey, I'm here. You're okay. You're with me.
00:47:36You're safe now.
00:47:42What happened?
00:47:44The doctors think that you probably have
00:47:46vasovagal syncope.
00:47:48They needed to test your blood just in case.
00:47:50Vaso... what?
00:47:52Vasovagal syncope.
00:47:54Means you pretty much just
00:47:56fall out of the site of blood.
00:47:58Amy called your emergency work contact.
00:48:00Tyler McGinnis.
00:48:02He's your boyfriend, right?
00:48:04No, Tyler's
00:48:06my best friend.
00:48:08Right, a best friend. That's the guy.
00:48:14Thank you, guys.
00:48:16I'm sorry for the trouble.
00:48:19I should not have went.
00:48:21No, it's fine. Mia Thompson went overboard
00:48:23and she'll be dealt with.
00:48:25Girl, what the fuck?
00:48:27Are you okay?
00:48:29You had me worried the whole ride here.
00:48:31I brought wine
00:48:33to calm our nerves.
00:48:43Come here.
00:48:49I almost had a heart attack when your manager called me.
00:48:51I'm totally fine.
00:48:55Uh, this is
00:48:57Bart Hanson.
00:48:59Quick question.
00:49:01Would you happen to know any
00:49:03guys that like guys
00:49:05like your friends?
00:49:07Uh, no.
00:49:09And that's Harry Jones,
00:49:11my boss, he owns the bar.
00:49:15Hi.
00:49:18Tyler McGinnis. Harry Jones.
00:49:20So you own the bar Cora works at?
00:49:22Yeah. That's cool.
00:49:24Have you ever
00:49:26booked any live musicians
00:49:28to play there?
00:49:30Usually just DJs.
00:49:32Cool, cool.
00:49:34Hey, uh, is your friend
00:49:36is he...
00:49:38Gay?
00:49:40Yes.
00:49:42You never mentioned that.
00:49:44Why would I?
00:49:47Are you jealous?
00:49:49No.
00:49:51No, I just...
00:49:53Miss Lane, you're awake.
00:49:55Your blood work came back.
00:49:57This is bad. Very bad.
00:50:03Miss Lane, we found a blood alcohol
00:50:05content of 0.08 in your system.
00:50:07You can't be drinking any alcohol
00:50:09in your condition, let alone three drinks.
00:50:13I
00:50:15had one glass of wine to calm my nerves.
00:50:17What disease
00:50:19do I have?
00:50:21Pregnancy.
00:50:25A woman in your condition shouldn't be
00:50:27drinking any alcohol. It can lead to
00:50:29birth defects, miscarriage.
00:50:31You need to take this very seriously.
00:50:33You're the father?
00:50:35No, I...
00:50:37You're gonna have to take care of her from now on.
00:50:39People give me such a headache.
00:50:45Wait.
00:50:47You didn't know you were pregnant?
00:50:51Oh, Jesus.
00:50:53Well, you're gonna have to take a look at this yourself.
00:50:55Nurse Jackie!
00:50:57Please bring me a pregnancy test!
00:50:59Now!
00:51:02Is this from that night?
00:51:06Yeah.
00:51:08Let's see what we got.
00:51:16I had so many questions.
00:51:20Whoa.
00:51:22What is this?
00:51:24I don't know.
00:51:26I don't know.
00:51:28I don't know.
00:51:31Whoa.
00:51:33This is a strange sight.
00:51:35I will leave you four to it.
00:51:37Miss Lane, you're fine.
00:51:39Just no more alcohol and make sure you
00:51:41send an appointment for an ultrasound with your OB.
00:51:43I will. Thank you.
00:51:45Sign your discharge papers
00:51:47and you can go.
00:51:49I'll call an Uber.
00:51:51No, I'll be taking her home.
00:51:53No, it's okay. I'll go with Tyler.
00:51:55We need to talk. Alone.
00:52:01There you go.
00:52:03How's that feel?
00:52:05Is that tight?
00:52:11What is he doing?
00:52:13He wants to talk but he's not talking.
00:52:15Does he not want the baby?
00:52:23You ready?
00:52:25Okay.
00:52:31Byron, what are you doing?
00:52:33Driving.
00:52:35Driving like a grandpa.
00:52:37I'm going the speed limit.
00:52:39You're driving two miles per hour.
00:52:41You should pull over.
00:52:43We need to talk.
00:52:45Okay.
00:52:47Um...
00:52:51I think we should get married.
00:52:55What do you think?
00:53:17I don't understand.
00:53:19You said your house was taken by the bank.
00:53:21I brought it back.
00:53:23It's yours.
00:53:31Why are you doing all of this, Byron?
00:53:33Isn't it obvious?
00:53:35I'm falling for you.
00:53:37I can't. Easton's my ex.
00:53:39Look.
00:53:41None of that matters.
00:53:43Just answer me this.
00:53:46Do you have feelings for me, too?
00:53:58So...
00:54:00Are you going to invite me inside?
00:54:02There's a lot more to see.
00:54:16It looks exactly the same way
00:54:18as when I left it.
00:54:20How?
00:54:22I thought the bank removed all the furniture.
00:54:24I pulled some strings
00:54:26and they put it all back.
00:54:28I can't believe this.
00:54:32Cora.
00:54:34Let's get married.
00:54:36Let me take care of you.
00:54:38Let me protect you and our baby.
00:54:40Protect me?
00:54:42That sounds a little dramatic.
00:54:45Cora, when I had Tommy
00:54:47look into your family's assets
00:54:49to buy this house back,
00:54:51there were some shady things
00:54:53that came across my eye.
00:54:55What do you mean?
00:54:57I've been meaning to talk to you about this.
00:54:59About your father's case.
00:55:01Something just doesn't feel right.
00:55:07It's not my fault.
00:55:09Byron Hanson showed up at the last minute
00:55:11and ruined everything.
00:55:13I don't even want to marry that loser anymore.
00:55:15He doesn't love me.
00:55:17I caught him telling Cora
00:55:19that
00:55:21he still has feelings for her.
00:55:29Love?
00:55:31Since when has marriage ever had anything to do with love?
00:55:35It seems like you've forgotten where you come from.
00:55:37Mom.
00:55:39Don't call me that.
00:55:42You useless brat.
00:55:44I went through hell to get rid of Thomas Lane
00:55:46so that you can marry into the Patton family
00:55:48and now you've put
00:55:50everything at risk
00:55:52by pulling that little stunt yesterday.
00:55:54I was just trying to get rid of Cora Easton
00:55:56and was confessing to her.
00:55:58That's your problem.
00:56:00You can't keep your man in line.
00:56:06Better question is
00:56:08why is Cora Lane able to have Byron Hanson
00:56:11wrapped around her little finger
00:56:13when you can barely even hold on
00:56:15to that mouth breather
00:56:17that is Easton Patton?
00:56:19I...
00:56:21I'll fix it.
00:56:23This marriage alliance is happening
00:56:25one way or another.
00:56:27Get your shit together, Mia.
00:56:29I raised you better than this.
00:56:31I expected you to be smarter.
00:56:33Stronger.
00:56:35I'm leaving for Europe in a few days.
00:56:37Do not make me fly back from Europe
00:56:40Please, I'll...
00:56:42I'll make it right.
00:56:44Then get the fuck out of my office
00:56:46and go make this right.
00:56:52Mia, remember
00:56:54I plucked you from the orphanage
00:56:56you come from nothing
00:56:58and I can always make you go back
00:57:00to being nothing.
00:57:02Without the Thompson name
00:57:04you are as low as a servant in this city.
00:57:08Yes, Mother.
00:57:32Your father was suspected of financial fraud
00:57:34and insider trading
00:57:36but the evidence against him
00:57:38it's almost...
00:57:40Almost what?
00:57:42It's almost too obvious.
00:57:44Most people who cook their books
00:57:46hide it better.
00:57:48So, you're saying
00:57:50you think he was framed?
00:57:52It's a real possibility.
00:57:54I never believed you did any of this.
00:57:56I never believed you did any of this.
00:57:58I never believed you did any of this.
00:58:01I never believed you did any of this.
00:58:03He was a righteous man.
00:58:05Ryan, you have to help me.
00:58:07I'm going to look into this
00:58:09but with your father's passing
00:58:11the answers might be hard to find.
00:58:13But I promise
00:58:15I'm going to do everything that I can.
00:58:17Okay?
00:58:21Cora?
00:58:23Cora?
00:58:25You alright? You were zoned out a bit.
00:58:27I was just thinking about some stuff.
00:58:30Tom is here. I have a surprise for you.
00:58:36You did it.
00:58:44My old car!
00:58:46You didn't!
00:58:48Your car, Miss Lane.
00:58:50Try the trunk.
00:58:52What for?
00:58:54Trust me.
00:59:00Byron!
00:59:02Oh my god.
00:59:04Best day ever. Thank you.
00:59:08One more thing.
00:59:10You ready?
00:59:12Yes, sir.
00:59:14No peeking.
00:59:16To the left.
00:59:18Keep going.
00:59:20You ready?
00:59:26Oh, Mr. Pickles!
00:59:28Hi.
00:59:35These are...
00:59:37All of your things that got taken by the bank.
00:59:39And some of the stuff that you sold
00:59:41to pay for your mother's medical bills.
00:59:45I'm sorry I couldn't get you everything.
00:59:47Believe it or not, two of your broken bags
00:59:49are actually on their way to China as we speak.
00:59:51This is the most romantic thing
00:59:53anyone's ever done to me.
00:59:58Cora,
01:00:00I know I'm not a man of many words,
01:00:02but I hope my actions speak loudly.
01:00:06It seems like you're trying to put my life back together.
01:00:08No.
01:00:10You did that all by yourself.
01:00:12And the resilience that you've showed
01:00:14since your father passed,
01:00:16taking care of your sick mother,
01:00:18selling all of your belongings,
01:00:20taking on a full-time job for the first time in your life...
01:00:22I've seen you do those things.
01:00:24And you're so strong.
01:00:27I mean, you pieced your whole life back together
01:00:29all by yourself.
01:00:31And I just wanted to help.
01:00:35And you are aware in the ring.
01:00:39You just haven't answered my question yet.
01:00:43Will you marry me?
01:00:47Yes.
01:00:57You're dumping me?
01:00:59Mia, for Pete's sake,
01:01:01I'm not dumping you.
01:01:03All I am saying is we should hold off on the wedding
01:01:05until this blows over.
01:01:07Have you not seen the news?
01:01:09We are literally plastered all over the internet.
01:01:11It's fucking embarrassing.
01:01:13Embarrassing?
01:01:15I am the one who got humiliated.
01:01:17How could you propose to me with your uncle's ring?
01:01:19If you didn't try to frame Cora,
01:01:21I would have.
01:01:24Babe.
01:01:30I was wrong.
01:01:32You're right.
01:01:34We can take a bit more time.
01:01:36It'll give us time to prep for the wedding.
01:01:38Wedding?
01:01:40There will be no wedding.
01:01:42I'm sorry.
01:01:44I'm sorry.
01:01:46I'm sorry.
01:01:48I'm sorry.
01:01:50I'm sorry.
01:01:52There will be no wedding.
01:01:58Wedding?
01:02:00There will be no wedding.
01:02:02Mom.
01:02:04What are you talking about?
01:02:06Byron just called.
01:02:08He said he's going to give us the Maple Plaza project.
01:02:10Only if
01:02:12you break up with Mia.
01:02:18What are you guys talking about?
01:02:21In that case,
01:02:23I guess you're right, Mia.
01:02:27I'm dumping you.
01:02:29No hard feelings, Mia.
01:02:31I mean,
01:02:33you of all people should know
01:02:35business is business.
01:02:37You can't do this to me.
01:02:39The Lane family was a better fit
01:02:41financially and
01:02:43well then the Lane family went bankrupt
01:02:45so I had no choice but to settle for you.
01:02:47And now you've changed your mind?
01:02:50It's all math, really.
01:02:52The Maple Plaza project is worth more than being married to you.
01:02:54To be honest, I'm really glad
01:02:56I don't have to marry you anymore.
01:02:58Now we can both drop the act.
01:03:02Have you ever loved me?
01:03:04No.
01:03:06Not once.
01:03:08Not ever.
01:03:14Neither.
01:03:20Uh, what the heck
01:03:22are you doing here?
01:03:24I'm going to work.
01:03:26No, I have direct orders from above.
01:03:28You can't work here anymore.
01:03:30Says who?
01:03:32Says both owners.
01:03:34I mean, you're pregnant with Mr. Hansen's baby for crying out loud.
01:03:36I'm pregnant, not invalid.
01:03:38It's so early on I can't even feel anything.
01:03:40No, no, no, no.
01:03:42I am not having a pregnant woman work at my bar.
01:03:44Especially not my boss's baby.
01:03:46What if you slip or what if you fall?
01:03:49Can I go then? What am I doing here?
01:03:51I don't care. You rest. Now.
01:03:53Oh, and you owe me a huge story time
01:03:55after my shift.
01:03:57I need to know everything
01:03:59from start to finish.
01:04:07I have to take this call.
01:04:13Thanks for calling me back, Mr. Murphy.
01:04:15I didn't expect to hear back from you.
01:04:17It's about my father's case.
01:04:19I have some questions.
01:04:21Then I think it's best if we speak in person.
01:04:23Okay.
01:04:25Can we meet at the coffee shop on 3rd?
01:04:29There were a lot of things I didn't know.
01:04:31Like you said,
01:04:33the evidence against your father
01:04:35almost seemed
01:04:37too obvious.
01:04:39But...
01:04:41But...
01:04:43He died before you could ask any questions.
01:04:47Hey, by the way,
01:04:49would you happen to know a Mia Thompson?
01:04:51Yeah.
01:04:53Why?
01:04:55It's just that
01:04:57right after your father died,
01:04:59she called saying she wanted to talk.
01:05:01I scheduled an appointment,
01:05:03but she never showed up.
01:05:05I have to go.
01:05:07Thanks, Joey.
01:05:09I'll call you.
01:05:17Okay.
01:05:33Okay, can I get Q3, please?
01:05:35Yes.
01:05:37I need the business contract.
01:05:41Yes.
01:05:43We do have one more meeting tonight.
01:05:46Do you want to get started with that?
01:05:50No, no.
01:05:52Cancel that.
01:06:08God, this guy.
01:06:16Mia?
01:06:20Are you in here?
01:06:22Mia!
01:06:44Mia!
01:06:46Wake up!
01:06:48I'm going to pass out.
01:06:53It's okay.
01:06:59911.
01:07:01What's your emergency?
01:07:03Ma'am? Ma'am, I can't hear you.
01:07:05Are you hurt?
01:07:07Hello?
01:07:10Hello?
01:07:11Go on!
01:07:12Hello?
01:07:13Hey, hey, hey.
01:07:14Hey, it's okay.
01:07:15Ma'am, are you there?
01:07:16Don't look at it.
01:07:17Who's with you?
01:07:19Hello?
01:07:20Yes, yes.
01:07:21I need an ambulance to 1277 Crandall Circle.
01:07:25It's a female, mid-20s.
01:07:26She needs immediate medical attention.
01:07:28Looks like...
01:07:30Looks like she slit her wrist.
01:07:31Hurry, please!
01:07:33Hey, hey, hey.
01:07:34Are you okay?
01:07:36I'm okay now.
01:07:37Okay, hey.
01:07:38Don't you ever do that again, okay?
01:07:40You scared the hell out of me.
01:07:43No matter what it is, just know that I'm with you, okay?
01:07:50Okay.
01:08:13You lost a lot of blood, but you'll be fine.
01:08:17You.
01:08:19What's going on?
01:08:21I found you in your bathtub in a pool of your own blood.
01:08:26Why did you try to kill yourself, Mia?
01:08:28Why do you care?
01:08:30Are you here to gloat?
01:08:32No.
01:08:34I just want to talk.
01:08:36Please get out.
01:08:38I don't want to see you.
01:08:41I saved your life, Mia.
01:08:42I'm supposed to thank you.
01:08:44I don't care if you thank me or not.
01:08:48I want to know why you contacted Joey Murphy after my father passed away.
01:08:53I think you know something.
01:08:57I don't know what you're talking about.
01:08:59You know what I think, Mia?
01:09:02I think you contacted Joey Murphy because deep down you feel guilty.
01:09:11You knew my father was framed, and you wanted to say something after he killed himself.
01:09:17I think under that hard exterior is a scared little girl who just wants to be loved.
01:09:21You don't understand.
01:09:23If you lived one day in my shoes, you would want to die too.
01:09:48You're right, Mia.
01:09:50I don't understand.
01:09:52But Mia, if you're not even afraid to die, why are you afraid to live?
01:09:59I wanted to ask my dad that.
01:10:03But it was too late.
01:10:08Maybe it isn't for you.
01:10:12Wait.
01:10:14If I tell you everything, will you help me?
01:10:24Special Agent Joey Murphy, Rachel Thompson, you are under arrest for falsifying financial documents,
01:10:30insider trading, witness intimidation, and other felonies.
01:10:34What the hell? Get off me.
01:10:37You have the right to remain silent.
01:10:39Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.
01:10:42You have the right to an attorney.
01:10:44You are so fucked. You have no idea who you're messing with.
01:10:48Your daughter, Mia Thompson, she confessed.
01:10:52We got her.
01:11:02Breaking news. Rachel Thompson of Thompson Group has pled guilty in a case that has shocked the nation.
01:11:08Hey, that's my ice cream.
01:11:10Go get your own.
01:11:12The Lane family will be meeting in a court in a few months to discuss further actions.
01:11:16Hey. It's over. Okay?
01:11:21Rachel Thompson is going to prison for a very, very long time.
01:11:25You know, when Mia told me that Rachel framed my father to help her marry into the Patton family,
01:11:32I felt like I could have avoided this whole thing.
01:11:36No, no, no. Hey, don't do that. Okay? It's not your fault.
01:11:40There's nothing you could have done to prevent it.
01:11:42Ultimately, it just came down to Rachel's greed. That led to this whole tragedy.
01:11:47Plus, I would have never fallen in love with you.
01:11:52By the way, I really need to get you a new engagement ring.
01:11:55Every time I see it, it reminds me of Easton proposing to you. It makes me want to vomit.
01:11:59I like this ring. It was your mother's. It makes it special.
01:12:03Yeah, but... I don't know.
01:12:07Maybe it was fate. It was always meant for me because I was meant for you.
01:12:16I love you, Byron.
01:12:18I love you more.
01:12:33Mom, you're doing so great.
01:12:35Wow, this is the longest I've gone.
01:12:38You're getting a little bit better every day. Let's sit down for a bit.
01:12:42Okay.
01:12:47I saw the news yesterday. You cleared your father's name. I'm so proud of you.
01:12:52I couldn't have done it without you. You make a great team.
01:12:55Nonsense. All I did was drag you down with my illness.
01:12:59When you needed me most, I went into a coma.
01:13:02Mom, you woke up from a three-week coma. It's a miracle.
01:13:11Hey, Cora. Long time no see.
01:13:15I'll have the nurse walk with me more. Go.
01:13:29You look great.
01:13:31I know.
01:13:32Yeah.
01:13:37I wanted to apologize. I realize now that I made a terrible mistake.
01:13:44I betrayed you, our love, and I left you when you needed me the most. I'm sorry.
01:13:51Apology accepted.
01:13:54I moved out of my mom's place. I've got my own now.
01:13:59That's good.
01:14:03Are you really marrying my uncle? This feels unreal, like some alternate reality.
01:14:10Not only is she marrying me, you're going to have a baby cousin soon.
01:14:25What?
01:14:27Are you serious?
01:14:30And from now on, you call her Aunt Cora.
01:14:34Oh, and if you ever disrespect your aunt again, I'm going to whoop your ass.
01:14:40Don't say I didn't warn you.
01:14:42I love you.
01:14:55Five, four, three, two, one.
01:15:07So wonderful, isn't it?
01:15:09Yes, now we're going to have two men in the house to protect you.
01:15:22So, um, do you have any openings for, you know, maybe a singer or some writer?
01:15:31I mean, we usually do DJs in the lounge.
01:15:35But we have open mic nights on Thursdays.
01:15:38Oh my God, thank you so much. I'll be there.
01:15:41Let's get it.
01:15:42Thank you so much, I'll be there.
01:15:49Okay guys, who wants to play a game?
