00:00:00Will you marry me?
00:00:02Shelby Trudeau must be married by five o'clock today, or she loses her inheritance.
00:00:06I'm Sergeant Shelby Trudeau. I'm here to claim my inheritance.
00:00:09Who's gonna marry you anyhow? The last guy you even slept with was a one-night stand three years ago at Mardi Gras.
00:00:15All right, let's get married.
00:00:17I can't keep living in the past. Maybe it's time to see what the future holds.
00:00:21Why can't you just tell her it's your place? You're a public figure.
00:00:24When do you think you can keep the charade up?
00:00:26The girl from Mardi Gras didn't know I was a boy. She liked me for me, and I want that again.
00:00:30You can't keep pining over some girl you met three years ago.
00:00:34Enjoy the little victory while it lasts.
00:00:37I see you're still trying to rob my wife of her inheritance.
00:00:40How pathetic and pointless. Look how in love we are.
00:00:43Sometimes I forget how to let go, but with you, every day is fun.
00:00:48Actually, he's just about one of the wealthiest men in the state.
00:00:51You are Roy's secret bride, a woman he is so ashamed of, he would hide the marriage for the rest of the world.
00:00:57We need to get a divorce.
00:00:58I've spent my whole life looking for you.
00:01:01Sometimes love isn't enough.
00:01:05Could it be?
00:01:07It's her. It's always been her.
00:01:10How could it be so blind?
00:01:22I'm bored.
00:01:26According to Mr. Trudeau's will, your eldest daughter, Miss Shelby Trudeau, must be married by five o'clock today, or she loses her inheritance.
00:01:37That un-ladylike girl is not my daughter.
00:01:40Bad enough I'm her stepmother.
00:01:42Ryan, hello. We want Shelby to know show.
00:01:45That's the way we do business.
00:01:48That's the way we get everything.
00:02:01I'm Sergeant Shelby Trudeau. I'm here to claim my inheritance.
00:02:05Well, look who it is. The prodigal sister. And dressed in your old uniform.
00:02:09Pathetic. Still trying to play hero.
00:02:12I'm in the army reserve.
00:02:14Still trying to play hero.
00:02:16I'm in the Army Reserve now, Cece.
00:02:18I was doing weekend drills with my unit.
00:02:20The will, please.
00:02:23Ooh, the Army Reserve.
00:02:26Should have just died in the field like a good little soldier.
00:02:29No one would have missed you.
00:02:30Shut your trap before I shut it for you.
00:02:34You don't have to respect me,
00:02:36but don't you dare speak about soldiers dying in vain on the battlefield.
00:02:40God, look around, Cece.
00:02:42Your curled hair and your frilly dress.
00:02:44Do you think any of that would be possible without others sacrificing?
00:02:48You have freedom and peace
00:02:50because someone else is carrying the burden.
00:02:58Of course.
00:02:59The will, Sergeant Genot.
00:03:02And I want to thank you for your service.
00:03:08Your father's will stipulates that the inheritance is yours
00:03:11only if signed by both you and your spouse.
00:03:17Ooh!
00:03:18That means you've got 15 minutes to find a husband, Shelby.
00:03:20Tick tock.
00:03:33Don't say I'm a bad stepmother.
00:03:35Give up your inheritance and I'll give you one percent.
00:03:39Better than nothing.
00:03:42You stole my father from me most of my life.
00:03:44You will not take what he left me.
00:03:46And what this money could do to help the gym
00:03:49and all the women that are part of it.
00:03:53Really, Shelby?
00:03:54Who's going to marry you anyhow?
00:03:56The last guy you even slept with was a one-night stand three years ago at Mardi Gras.
00:04:10Don't.
00:04:11Keep the mystery.
00:04:15You've already lost, Shelby.
00:04:17Take the one percent I'm offering and be grateful for it.
00:04:20Right.
00:04:21You're not even going to find a bum on the street to marry you in time.
00:04:26Watch me.
00:04:31Watch me.
00:04:35Watch me.
00:04:39Watch me.
00:04:51Don't worry.
00:04:58He looks single.
00:05:00Oh my god, this is totally FUBAR.
00:05:03Suck it up, soldier.
00:05:05You can't let your evil stepmother and stepsister win.
00:05:10Hey, mister?
00:05:12Will you marry me?
00:05:22I know this sounds crazy and there's no time to explain,
00:05:25but if you help me, I promise a generous reward once I get my inheritance.
00:05:29Well, this day just got a whole lot more interesting.
00:05:32So you won't have to live on the streets anymore.
00:05:34Do I look like a homeless person there?
00:05:36Priceless.
00:05:39Shelby Trudeau, are you insane?
00:05:41You can't marry this...
00:05:43Helpful.
00:05:46Shelby Trudeau, the late Judge Trudeau's eldest daughter.
00:05:50That's right.
00:05:51The judge said she was a soldier.
00:05:53He didn't mention she was beautiful, too.
00:05:56Here's a few bucks.
00:05:58Take it and get lost.
00:05:59Don't meddle in our business.
00:06:01Don't speak to him like that.
00:06:03He's a person with feelings.
00:06:06The Cinderella Tale.
00:06:07Complete with an evil stepmother and obnoxious stepsister.
00:06:11It's clear who deserves my help.
00:06:13And the timing couldn't be better for me.
00:06:16All right.
00:06:17Let's get married.
00:06:18Let's get married.
00:06:33Names for the marriage certificate?
00:06:35Shelby Trudeau.
00:06:38And your name is?
00:06:41Griffin Roy.
00:06:48Congratulations.
00:07:02And congratulations, you lovebirds.
00:07:15This isn't over.
00:07:16Tell her!
00:07:18Tell her!
00:07:23Sergeant Trudeau.
00:07:24Mrs. Roy.
00:07:26You have to stay married for at least one full year.
00:07:30Or everything goes to your stepmother and stepsister.
00:07:34You hear that, Shelby?
00:07:35You won't last a week with that hobo.
00:07:42Come on.
00:07:48I guess we'll need to keep in touch.
00:07:50But you probably don't have a permanent address.
00:07:54Once the estate gets settled and I have the money,
00:07:57we can get you an apartment and set you up with a job.
00:08:00When most people get what they wanted, they usually just walk away.
00:08:04I'm not most people.
00:08:07I see that.
00:08:15I gotta return this.
00:08:18Goodbye for now.
00:08:21Goodbye, wife.
00:08:35Where the hell have you been?
00:08:49Gotcha.
00:08:50Seriously, this is over the top, even for you.
00:08:55This DNA, get it to Detective McSwain right away.
00:08:58Look, as your campaign manager,
00:09:00I need you to be more focused on your image, okay?
00:09:03You'll never catch LaRoche dumpster diving.
00:09:10Marrying Isabel was the best decision of my life.
00:09:14You know, when you elected me to Congress three years ago,
00:09:18you got a package deal.
00:09:20Griffin Roy, just another billionaire bachelor,
00:09:23playboy lawyer, best.
00:09:26This, my friend, is where you're vulnerable.
00:09:29In a snap, I can line up a dozen beautiful, successful women...
00:09:33Who want me for what I am, not who I am.
00:09:35Look, you can't keep pining over some girl you met three years ago.
00:09:39It's not just some girl.
00:09:41We had a connection.
00:09:44Never had that before.
00:09:50Look, I gotta run.
00:09:51But Griffin, you need to find a woman who can stand by your side.
00:09:55Someone real.
00:09:56Not this made-up mystery girl you've built up in your head.
00:10:12Ah!
00:10:15Ah!
00:10:16Ah!
00:10:18Ah!
00:10:20Remember that true strength is not physical.
00:10:23It comes from the belief that you are worth defending.
00:10:26All right, guys, that's class.
00:10:28Nice work.
00:10:35So what's the latest on the STD super spreader?
00:10:38I tried to call him, but Mr. Chlamydia blocked my number.
00:10:43Who knows how many other women he's done this to.
00:10:46So I was thinking maybe it's time to go by his place and confront him in person.
00:10:53What's holding you back?
00:10:54Andre's no regular guy, Shelby.
00:10:56He's got a bro pack.
00:10:58These men are like wolves with money.
00:11:00Let's go.
00:11:02We'll face this douchebag together.
00:11:09We'll face this douchebag together.
00:11:23What's your name?
00:11:24I'm Stephanie.
00:11:26How about a drink, huh?
00:11:27Oh, that's okay.
00:11:28Come on, one little drink won't do no harm.
00:11:31Okay, one drink.
00:11:32Really, Pierce?
00:11:33This clown is the one who controls the town's power brokers.
00:11:37You want to beat LaRoche, you got to mingle with the good, the bad, and the Andres.
00:11:47I can't believe I slept with that.
00:11:49What was I thinking?
00:11:52I guess I can't hold my liquor.
00:11:54I mean, the night was just one big black hole.
00:11:58It wasn't the alcohol that caused you to black out.
00:12:05Thanks.
00:12:06That creep.
00:12:09You dickless loser.
00:12:18Drugging girls to get laid.
00:12:20What the fuck?
00:12:21Get out of my house, skank.
00:12:23I'm the skank?
00:12:25That's funny.
00:12:26You're the one spreading chlamydia.
00:12:28Shut the fuck up and get out of my house.
00:12:32Unless you're back for more, I know how much of a whore you really are.
00:12:35You like spreading your legs, don't you?
00:12:37I just told you that you have chlamydia and you...
00:12:41Oh my God.
00:12:42You already know you have it.
00:12:44And you don't care.
00:12:47Ladies!
00:12:48Andre Ivanov has been knowingly spreading chlamydia.
00:12:58What is she doing here?
00:13:00Both of you, get out of here.
00:13:06Oh shit.
00:13:07She can't know who I am yet.
00:13:14Do you know who I am?
00:13:15I don't care.
00:13:21Where did she come from?
00:13:23That's my wife.
00:13:24Isn't she amazing?
00:13:25And she's gonna cost you, Andre, once he finds out you're married to her?
00:13:28I don't care.
00:13:29You think you can crash my party and put that ninja shit on me?
00:13:34You are one dead bitch.
00:13:46Oh, nice.
00:13:47Did you see that combo?
00:13:48Dude, she can fight.
00:13:49Look at her form, man.
00:13:55Dude, she can really fight, man.
00:13:57You are hopeless.
00:14:00Hey.
00:14:01Sell me jackets.
00:14:02I'll give you my Rolex.
00:14:26Fuck you, Roy!
00:14:27I'll do everything I can to end you!
00:14:29We should get out of here.
00:14:30Yeah.
00:14:31Come on.
00:14:35Get him!
00:14:38You lied to me.
00:14:39You're not some homeless guy.
00:14:41Okay, when did I say I was homeless?
00:14:43You were next to a dumpster.
00:14:45That's not much of a leap.
00:14:46What were you doing at this party?
00:14:48Working the room.
00:14:49Oh.
00:14:50Thought you were one of those asshole rich guys.
00:14:54I'm sorry.
00:14:55I hope I didn't cost you your job.
00:14:57I know how you can make it up to me.
00:14:59Have dinner with me.
00:15:03My place is nearby.
00:15:04I'll whip something up as a thank you for tonight.
00:15:06Wow.
00:15:07A wife who cooks and kicks ass.
00:15:10I'm one lucky man.
00:15:12Don't push it.
00:15:21Hey, dinner's ready.
00:15:27This is nice.
00:15:28I haven't had a home cooked meal in a long time.
00:15:32It's one of the things I missed the most when I was deployed.
00:15:34How long were you in the military?
00:15:36Seven years.
00:15:37I joined right after high school.
00:15:39My mom had just died and I was feeling rudderless.
00:15:42You weren't close with your father?
00:15:45I was.
00:15:46He was my hero.
00:15:48Until he wasn't.
00:15:51He cheated on my mom with Margo.
00:15:53He was the judge and she was the court stenographer.
00:15:56It was quite the scandal at the time.
00:15:59That must have been really hard for you.
00:16:02It was harder on my mom.
00:16:04She didn't want anything to do with him so I cut him off too.
00:16:07Even started using my mom's maiden name.
00:16:09But then three years ago he reached out, told me he was sick, so I came to New Orleans for a visit.
00:16:14Here I am.
00:16:15Here you are.
00:16:17Enough about me.
00:16:19What's your story, Griffin Roy?
00:16:22Oh.
00:16:24Shelby Trudeau, come on out now.
00:16:26We know you're in there, Shelby.
00:16:28The light is on.
00:16:29We are not leaving until you open this door.
00:16:32We are not leaving until you open this door.
00:16:35Hey.
00:16:36I'll handle this.
00:16:42Oh.
00:16:43I thought I heard a couple of stray cats out here yelling, but it's just you two.
00:16:47And you are?
00:16:48That's the homeless guy that Shelby married.
00:16:50What are you doing here?
00:16:52Why wouldn't Griffin be here?
00:16:54He's my husband, after all.
00:16:57Mama, what are we going to do?
00:16:58We need to challenge the will.
00:16:59But how can we do that if they're still together?
00:17:01Shut up, Cece.
00:17:02Oh.
00:17:03I see you're still trying to rob my wife of her inheritance.
00:17:06How pathetic and pointless.
00:17:08Look how in love we are.
00:17:11I'll be back.
00:17:13Enjoy the little victory while it lasts.
00:17:17Right.
00:17:18We're going to shred that will and your shame of marriage in no time.
00:17:31Margo and Cece are going to be a problem.
00:17:33There's no way they'll let us be.
00:17:35What if we moved in together?
00:17:38You want to live here?
00:17:40No.
00:17:41Somewhere with better security.
00:17:43Like my place.
00:17:46Sure.
00:17:47I'm dying to see where you live.
00:17:54So let me get this straight.
00:17:56You told her you're house-sitting?
00:17:58That's right.
00:17:59Said I was going to watch the house while the owner was in Europe for the year.
00:18:03You do know how crazy that sounds.
00:18:05Why can't you just tell her it's your place?
00:18:11I saw you from across the room and I had to talk to you.
00:18:14That's very flattering, but you don't know anything about me.
00:18:17I know you take my breath away.
00:18:19And I know that I would wonder for the rest of my life if I didn't take this chance.
00:18:24Even if it was only for one night.
00:18:26Maybe it's better this way.
00:18:29No names, no past.
00:18:32We can just be ourselves.
00:18:34I'd like that very much.
00:18:37The girl from Mardi Gras didn't know I was a Roy.
00:18:40She liked me for me.
00:18:43And I want that again, Pierce.
00:18:45Even for a little while.
00:18:54Stash all this stuff in the garage, please.
00:18:57Griffin, you're a public figure.
00:19:00A lot of people know who you are.
00:19:02How long do you think you can keep this charade up?
00:19:04I don't know.
00:19:06But I have a chance to be with someone without all the crap that goes along with being a Roy.
00:19:10Well, just remember, we're about to launch a multi-platform campaign.
00:19:15In two weeks, TV, radio, social, billboards, your face is about to be everywhere.
00:19:21Then I better make the most of the next 14 days.
00:19:41This place is insane. The owner must really trust you.
00:19:45Yep, we're pretty tight.
00:19:49Here, let me show you to your room.
00:19:56I can't keep living in the past.
00:19:59Maybe it's time to see what the future holds.
00:20:11Goodbye, mystery lover.
00:20:19I take it things are going well with Xena Warrior Princess.
00:20:22Oh, she's so exciting and competitive.
00:20:25Keeps me on my toes.
00:20:27And so damn beautiful.
00:20:29Face sweaty, no makeup, so damn real.
00:20:31When do I get to meet her?
00:20:33Her military background and work with actress women will be a real asset for both female and male voters.
00:20:38Dial it back, Pierce. We're in the early stages.
00:20:41Alright, well, don't take too long.
00:20:43You married her for the campaign.
00:20:45And it's not like she can dump you once she finds out.
00:20:48She needs you for her inheritance.
00:20:58Good.
00:21:05Hey.
00:21:06I'm taking care of you tonight.
00:21:08Oh, I like the sound of that.
00:21:10Get your mind out of the gutter, woman. I'm talking food here.
00:21:13Alright, in that case, surprise me.
00:21:16Trust me, I'm full of surprises.
00:21:19I bet you are.
00:21:21See you soon.
00:21:31Gotcha, sis.
00:21:33So this is where you've been hiding out.
00:21:37Ah!
00:21:45Did you want some of my wine?
00:22:07I turned off your alarm.
00:22:09You obviously needed to sleep.
00:22:11We can run tonight.
00:22:13P.S. You snore.
00:22:15But it's super cute.
00:22:17I do not snore, Gryffinroy.
00:22:19P.S. You snore.
00:22:21But it's super cute.
00:22:23I do not snore, Gryffinroy.
00:22:40What are you doing in a place like this?
00:22:43I live here.
00:22:44When did you move in?
00:22:46Last week. We're house-sitting.
00:22:48Yeah, I've heard that one before.
00:22:50Listen, this is an exclusive neighborhood.
00:22:52Thieves are always trying to break in.
00:22:54Who are you calling a thief?
00:22:56Please step out. Now!
00:22:59What the hell are you doing?
00:23:02Just routine inspection.
00:23:06Let's see what else you're hiding here.
00:23:15Get your filthy hands off my wife!
00:23:17What?
00:23:23Oh, cool.
00:23:25I thought I was saving you,
00:23:27but it looks like you got it.
00:23:29Look out!
00:23:33Damn, lady.
00:23:35You make it look easy.
00:23:37Are you hurt?
00:23:39Just my pride.
00:23:42Looks like you get a flat.
00:23:44Let's get out of here. We can take my car.
00:23:47This is yours?
00:23:49Borrowed it from a friend.
00:23:51Right.
00:23:55I know all the guards who work here,
00:23:57and you sure as hell aren't them.
00:23:59Who the hell are you, man?
00:24:01Some kind of big shot or something?
00:24:03Oh, I'm your worst nightmare.
00:24:07All right.
00:24:09You're under arrest.
00:24:11What the hell is going on?
00:24:18Well, that didn't go as planned.
00:24:21Mama, this is all your fault.
00:24:23You pushed me to hire those thugs to humiliate Shelby,
00:24:26and now my money's wasted and she got off scot-free.
00:24:28Eyes on the prize, Cece.
00:24:30Once we inherit the entire Trudeau estate,
00:24:32this'll be pocket change.
00:24:34Yeah.
00:24:35And who would have thought that bum
00:24:37would have got the police involved in all this mess?
00:24:39I don't believe he's a bum.
00:24:41I mean, how can a homeless man be so clever?
00:24:43No matter whether he's a...
00:24:45No matter whether he's a tramp or not,
00:24:47he married Shelby for her money.
00:24:49Offer him a better deal and he'll leave her.
00:24:52We annul the marriage and claim the entire estate.
00:24:58Oh, isn't Victoria Wilcox
00:25:00the porter party billionaire looking for a new gigolo?
00:25:02That old cougar?
00:25:04Oh, Cece, honey,
00:25:06when they're that age, they're not cougars.
00:25:08They're saber-toothed tigers.
00:25:10Saber-toothed tigers.
00:25:16Well, then we just gotta make him an offer he can't refuse.
00:25:26You really should have iced these right away.
00:25:28I realize that now.
00:25:30I've only ever sparred with gloves on,
00:25:33never thrown a bare-knuckle punch before.
00:25:37What?
00:25:39Did I say I needed my man card?
00:25:41No, you knocked a guy out with one punch.
00:25:43Your man card is fully intact.
00:25:46You just sounded like a prep school rich boy for a second.
00:25:54Not just for today, but for everything.
00:25:57It's been really lonely since my dad died,
00:26:00and it's nice having someone on my side.
00:26:03There's no need to thank me.
00:26:05I am your husband.
00:26:08Close your eyes.
00:26:19Okay.
00:26:21Fair is fair.
00:26:23I owe you one.
00:26:38No.
00:26:42Sorry.
00:26:44I know we're just pretending.
00:26:47Right.
00:26:49Pretending.
00:26:53I'm gonna...
00:26:55I'm gonna go for a run.
00:26:58Okay, I'll come with...
00:27:04What if it's just me?
00:27:05Wouldn't that be ironic?
00:27:06The first woman I'm into for so long is not into me.
00:27:09Fuck!
00:27:25Griffin kissed me,
00:27:27and it felt just like that night three years ago.
00:27:30What's wrong with me?
00:27:32How can I feel the exact same way for two different men?
00:27:46I don't know.
00:27:47He looks like a wet street dog.
00:27:49I'll shower and a haircut,
00:27:51and he'll be marginally presentable.
00:27:53Hey!
00:27:54You!
00:27:59We got a proposition for you.
00:28:01How'd you like to be richer than you ever imagined?
00:28:04Well, that'd be a dream, ma'am.
00:28:06Get in.
00:28:20Are you sure he's not homeless?
00:28:22He eats like a dirty pig.
00:28:23So you want me to divorce Shelby
00:28:26and marry Victoria Wilcox,
00:28:29the shithouse billionaire?
00:28:35You will refer to them as porta-potties, young man.
00:28:40We know you're after Shelby's inheritance,
00:28:42but she's never gonna see it.
00:28:45Well, he'll do.
00:28:52Oh, he'll do just nicely.
00:28:57Wait a minute.
00:28:59Have we met before?
00:29:00Because you look real familiar.
00:29:02Oh, no.
00:29:04Nope, I don't think I run in your kinds of circles,
00:29:07Miss Wilcox.
00:29:09The first document are official divorce papers.
00:29:15The first document are official divorce papers.
00:29:18And you will also be paid 20 grand a month
00:29:20to provide intimate services of a sexual nature.
00:29:25Hmm.
00:29:26Oh, you don't need to worry, boy,
00:29:28because I have the libido of a 26-year-old.
00:29:46I don't understand.
00:29:47This says...
00:29:48You're under arrest for pandering.
00:29:52Detective McSwain,
00:29:54this woman has tried to recruit me as a sex worker.
00:29:58That's a class C felony.
00:30:00He's lying.
00:30:04And you will also be paid 20 grand a month
00:30:06to provide intimate services of a sexual nature.
00:30:13Detective, detective,
00:30:15there must be some misunderstanding.
00:30:17There's no nonsense going on here.
00:30:20No, you can't arrest me on the word of that bum.
00:30:22He set me up.
00:30:23Detective McSwain, it's getting late.
00:30:26Um, I'd like to go home and see my wife.
00:30:34Wait.
00:30:37You have made a big mistake rejecting me.
00:30:39I'm a woman of wealth and power that you cannot fathom.
00:30:44I will make you pay very dearly for this.
00:30:47I don't think anyone mentioned my last name.
00:30:50It's Roy.
00:30:56Well, I knew you looked familiar, you see.
00:30:59I'm just an old woman.
00:31:01You could forgive me.
00:31:03Get out of my face.
00:31:07Pardon me.
00:31:09Excuse me.
00:31:11All right, we got her in the car.
00:31:13How far do you want this to go?
00:31:15Put the fear of God in there.
00:31:17Mug shot, fingerprints, the works.
00:31:20Then in the morning, drop the charges
00:31:22before the press gets wind.
00:31:24Here, sir, to have your hide.
00:31:26You got it, Griff.
00:31:38Where have you been?
00:31:40I was worried you were gone so long.
00:31:42Yeah?
00:31:44Yeah.
00:31:46Uh, are you hungry?
00:31:48I can heat up some leftovers.
00:31:50Yeah, I'd like that.
00:31:54Did that just happen?
00:31:56Maybe I have a shot with her after all.
00:32:09Oh, baby, my little girl.
00:32:12I will never forget the humiliation
00:32:14that man has caused us.
00:32:16Don't you worry, Mama.
00:32:18I have a plan.
00:32:20I had all night to think about it
00:32:22in that cold, hard cell.
00:32:24If he doesn't want to divorce Shelby, fine.
00:32:27We'll just force Shelby to divorce him.
00:32:30And I know just where to hit it where it hurts.
00:32:35He's amazing.
00:32:42Ah!
00:32:52I think we shaved 30 seconds off that time.
00:32:55I thought I was competitive.
00:32:57You even compete with yourself.
00:33:08You're not growing.
00:33:10You're dying.
00:33:12I, um...
00:33:14I'm gonna go shower.
00:33:16Me too.
00:33:20Get a grip, Shelby.
00:33:22So he's hot.
00:33:24You've been around dozens of smoking hot men in the service.
00:33:27What makes him any different?
00:33:29He just is.
00:33:34Hey, Zara.
00:33:36Shelby, you have to get here right away.
00:33:38Buford's kicking us out the gym.
00:33:44I'm sorry. My hands are tied.
00:33:48He says we have to leave.
00:33:50Okay, I got this.
00:33:51Mr. Buford, what are you doing?
00:33:53This is my place of business.
00:33:55You're done here.
00:33:56I sold the building.
00:33:57The new owners want you out.
00:33:59That's illegal. I have a lease.
00:34:01They've got a break clause for new management,
00:34:03and they've decided to activate it.
00:34:05Who the hell is they?
00:34:08Oh!
00:34:11That would be us.
00:34:15If we can take it from here.
00:34:17Sure thing.
00:34:18Pleasure doing business with you, ladies.
00:34:20I know you used all your army money for this gym,
00:34:23but you can get it back.
00:34:25All you have to do is sign this divorce petition.
00:34:29Get a divorce, give up your inheritance,
00:34:32and then you can keep your dinky, smelly gym.
00:34:38The End
00:34:43I bet you want to hit me so bad.
00:34:46Not so tough now, are you, Shelby?
00:34:48Screw you.
00:34:49I'll just pack up and find a new location.
00:34:52Sorry, the building is now closed for...
00:34:55renovations.
00:34:57And everything inside now belongs to me.
00:35:00Of course, you could sue,
00:35:02but that would take months.
00:35:06Well, what would happen to your gym now, Shelby?
00:35:09That's blackmail.
00:35:10We like to call it capitalism.
00:35:12You don't sign, we close the gym,
00:35:14and then you lose everything.
00:35:18Think about what you're doing.
00:35:20This gym is a lifeline for so many women.
00:35:23I won't let you take it from them.
00:35:25You can beg, but I won't budge.
00:35:29Be a smart girl and sign the papers by tomorrow,
00:35:32or you can kiss your Valkyrie Fight Club goodbye.
00:35:37And watch us turn it into...
00:35:39Valkyrie Strip Club!
00:35:42Isn't that a good idea?
00:35:44There's poles and everything.
00:35:45Oh my.
00:35:46Plenty of girls.
00:35:47They're cute.
00:35:48They are cute.
00:35:49Cute enough.
00:35:52I'm not here because I give a damn if you win.
00:35:55I'm here to make sure that Griffin Roy doesn't.
00:35:58Well, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
00:36:02The fuck you say?
00:36:04What exactly did Roy do to earn your loathing?
00:36:08He partnered up against me with a She-Warrior.
00:36:12I want to see them both destroyed.
00:36:15I want to see them both killed.
00:36:19I want to see them both destroyed.
00:36:21Well, with your connections and my political might,
00:36:25I think that might be able to be arranged.
00:36:36LaRose got Andre.
00:36:38What are we going to do about this?
00:36:40Nothing.
00:36:41We do not want these two pairing up, alright?
00:36:44This is political suicide.
00:36:45Just talk to Shelby.
00:36:47Maybe if you both apologize...
00:36:48Um, hell no.
00:36:50Let them do their best.
00:36:52Mark my words.
00:36:53This is going to come back to bite you in the ass.
00:37:01Hello, Shelby.
00:37:03Griffin, we need to talk.
00:37:12Shelby?
00:37:13What's going on?
00:37:14You sounded tense on the phone.
00:37:18I have so many missed moments.
00:37:20Things I should have said or done.
00:37:22Chances that were lost that might have been pivotal to my life.
00:37:26I don't want you to be another moment that I miss.
00:37:41You first.
00:37:44You first.
00:38:14You first.
00:38:44You first.
00:38:50That was...
00:38:51Fucking amazing.
00:39:04Griffin?
00:39:05Where are you going?
00:39:06Griffin?
00:39:08Griffin!
00:39:11Explain yourself.
00:39:13It's Rush.
00:39:16PJs.
00:39:18This is Jacques.
00:39:20Why?
00:39:22You're my wife.
00:39:23I sleep with you now.
00:39:25We probably should have talked this through.
00:39:27Yeah.
00:39:28You said you had missed moments.
00:39:31I've had them too.
00:39:33You will not be one of them.
00:39:36I know we said we were pretending, but...
00:39:39I want to give us a chance.
00:39:41A real one.
00:39:43Oh?
00:40:12I'm sorry.
00:40:31I now pronounce ye man and wife.
00:40:36Guess they're bonding last, why don'tcha?
00:40:42CC, meet me at the gym in one hour.
00:40:44We can go over the divorce papers.
00:40:51Goodbye, my husband.
00:41:12I knew something must have happened.
00:41:20Hello?
00:41:21Pierce.
00:41:23I need you to use all your connections to find out what CC and Margot Trudeau did to Shelby yesterday.
00:41:30Because of them, my wife is divorcing me.
00:41:33It's five in the morning.
00:41:35You have an hour.
00:41:42How did CC get the money to buy the entire Rampart Drive building?
00:41:46She and Margot Trudeau are using the Trudeau mansion as collateral.
00:41:49Stupid.
00:41:50Good for us, bad for them.
00:41:52And the property title?
00:41:54Still an escrow.
00:41:55The title hasn't been transferred yet.
00:41:57Make sure it is.
00:41:59In your name.
00:42:00You're about to be the proud owner of a mid-rise building on Rampart Drive.
00:42:04Oh, goody, goody.
00:42:07Document explained.
00:42:12I showed the fake guards in lockup CC Trudeau's mugshot.
00:42:15You're right.
00:42:16She's the one who hired them to rough up your wife.
00:42:18How'd you know?
00:42:20Had her M.O. written all over it.
00:42:22I take it the kid gloves are off this time?
00:42:24Oh, yeah.
00:42:25CC Trudeau thinks she's untouchable.
00:42:27Let's show her just how wrong she is.
00:42:37I'm glad you finally came to your senses, Shelby.
00:42:40I definitely have.
00:42:42Showtime.
00:42:44I'm your campaign manager, not some hired muscle.
00:42:48Here's what I think about your agreement.
00:42:53Did you see that?
00:42:54Did you see that?
00:42:55She chose me, man.
00:42:56She chose me.
00:42:57Well, hell, looks like she did.
00:43:00You fucking bitch!
00:43:03That's her cue.
00:43:08Say goodbye to your gym, Shelby.
00:43:10You're going to lose everything.
00:43:12You know, at least I still have my self-respect,
00:43:14which is more than I can say for you.
00:43:16Don't be hasty, CC.
00:43:18She's basically a man.
00:43:19You'll get hurt.
00:43:20I will find a way to reclaim what is rightfully mine,
00:43:23but I will never agree to your demands.
00:43:26Reclaim what's yours?
00:43:28You're never going to step foot in your precious gym ever again.
00:43:34That will be difficult to enforce since I now own the building.
00:43:38Who the hell are you?
00:43:40Pierce Durand, the new owner of 222 Rampart Drive.
00:43:48Your deal fell out of escrow.
00:43:50I swooped in and bought it.
00:43:52That's impossible.
00:43:54I own it.
00:43:55I own it.
00:43:56Let me spell this out in a way that even an imbecile will understand.
00:44:00I outbid you.
00:44:02The building is mine.
00:44:04Now scram.
00:44:05I'm Emma.
00:44:07Mr. Doe, I want to ensure you that your lease is secure.
00:44:11The only change will be a 40% rent reduction.
00:44:15That's unbelievable.
00:44:18Are you sure you can afford that?
00:44:19Oh, yeah.
00:44:21Thank you, Mr. Durand.
00:44:24The gym means a lot to the women in this community.
00:44:32Cece Trudeau, you're under arrest for extortion.
00:44:35The fake guards identified you as the one who paid them to attack Shelby Trudeau.
00:44:40Okay, well, but that was last week.
00:44:42You can't arrest me now.
00:44:43We most certainly can, and this time the charges won't be dropped.
00:44:47No! No! No!
00:44:49You can't take my girl!
00:44:51I'm coming after you.
00:44:52I'm never going to forget this.
00:44:53When I get out, you're mine.
00:45:03Zara, call everyone.
00:45:07Valkyrie Fight Club is back in business.
00:45:16Well, aren't you going to go over there?
00:45:18You're the one that orchestrated this whole thing.
00:45:20No, it's her victory.
00:45:23I merely did what a husband shouldn't to ensure her happiness.
00:45:27That's my reward.
00:45:29That is some wild shit you just spouted.
00:45:31This girl is seriously causing you to lose it, Griff.
00:45:34You worry too much.
00:45:35And you don't worry enough.
00:45:37We have a campaign to win,
00:45:39and you're ten points behind LaRoche in all the latest polls.
00:45:42What are you driving at?
00:45:43Tell Shelby who you are.
00:45:45The voters need to know who your wife is,
00:45:48and we need to be able to shape the narrative.
00:45:50You wait too long,
00:45:52and Neville LaRoche is going to find out and beat us to it.
00:45:55Okay.
00:45:57I'll tell her.
00:45:58I just...
00:46:00I need a few more days of just me with her.
00:46:04Then I'll confess everything.
00:46:06That's Shelby Trudeau, owner of the Valkyrie Fight Club.
00:46:10Pretty girl.
00:46:12So is she screwing?
00:46:14Duran or Roy?
00:46:15I don't know, sir.
00:46:16Ugh!
00:46:17That luncheon was so boring, Neville.
00:46:20Those stuck-up twats kept going on and on
00:46:24about their precious lineages dating back to the Mayflower days.
00:46:27I don't know.
00:46:28I don't know.
00:46:29I don't know.
00:46:30I don't know.
00:46:31I don't know.
00:46:32I don't know.
00:46:33I don't know.
00:46:34I don't know.
00:46:35They were dating back to the Mayflower.
00:46:37Ugh.
00:46:38Mmm.
00:46:40Not everyone's about trash like you, Isabel.
00:46:45It is a wonder how you overcame your low-class origins
00:46:50and gained my interest.
00:46:52That wasn't your interest, darling.
00:46:54That was your cock.
00:46:56Touche, my dear.
00:46:58Why are you looking at a picture of her?
00:47:00Do you know Shelby Trudeau?
00:47:02Well, she went by Michelle in high school, but yeah, that's her.
00:47:07She was a star athlete with an annoying habit of defending every loser in school.
00:47:12From bullies like you, per se.
00:47:16Oh, that is unfortunate.
00:47:20You'll have to work that much harder for when you two reconnect.
00:47:24No, no.
00:47:25You mean your new bestie, Isabel?
00:47:27Baby, no.
00:47:33It's cooling off. We should go inside.
00:47:37Just a few more minutes.
00:47:39I can't remember the last time I let myself just be.
00:47:45Yeah.
00:47:46I guess when my parents were still together.
00:47:49Before the divorce, the cheating, Mom getting sick.
00:47:54I was carefree then.
00:47:56I joined the army after, but that was just another rollercoaster.
00:48:00It's kind of hard to chill when you're deep in hostile territory, cutting off weapons supply routes.
00:48:06Well, I'm glad you feel safe here.
00:48:10It's not the place, it's the person.
00:48:14I feel like I've known you forever.
00:48:21Shelby, I have to tell you something.
00:48:24Shelby, I have to tell you something.
00:48:33I guess I can wait one more day.
00:48:41Our most sought-after class at Valkyrie is our women's self-defense kickboxing.
00:48:48Sign me up.
00:48:51Oh shit, Isabel.
00:48:53The girl who made my life and everyone else's a living hell in high school.
00:48:57What sneaky BS is she up to?
00:49:00Oh my gosh, Michelle, is it you?
00:49:03I go by Shelby now.
00:49:05You look amazing.
00:49:07Michelle, it's Shelby, and I go way back.
00:49:11Gosh, what a small world.
00:49:14Well, for membership, we offer weekly and monthly subscriptions.
00:49:18Throughout, I pay up front for three years, and I'll be sure to tell all my friends to join.
00:49:24You know, if you're really serious about this, you'll have to lose the bling before class.
00:49:32I was a mean girl in high school, and I'm really ashamed of it.
00:49:36What you've built here is so empowering.
00:49:39If I had had something like this growing up, then maybe I would have found the courage to
00:49:44stop my pa from all the horrible things he did to me and Ma.
00:49:50Shelby, can we start over?
00:49:52Would you let me try to make it right?
00:49:57Okay.
00:50:06This is so awesome!
00:50:08How about lunch?
00:50:09I'm free to grab a bite right now.
00:50:11We can catch up.
00:50:14Okay.
00:50:15Let me grab my bag.
00:50:25Griffin Roy has made criminal justice reform the heart of his campaign.
00:50:29He's pro-union, and has a five-point plan to improve workplace safety regulations.
00:50:35Shit!
00:50:36Shit!
00:50:37No, no, not you.
00:50:39I gotta call you back.
00:50:49LaRoche knows about Shelby.
00:50:51He's sicked Isabelle on her.
00:50:52Look, here's her Instagram.
00:50:56What the fuck?
00:50:57LaRoche's oppo research must have tagged her.
00:51:00Look, we just lost control of the narrative, Griffin.
00:51:02Screw the narrative.
00:51:03It's a trap.
00:51:04They've got my wife.
00:51:12Thought this was supposed to be a quick bite.
00:51:14I have a business to run, you know.
00:51:16You haven't changed a bit since high school.
00:51:18So dedicated.
00:51:19I've always admired that about you.
00:51:23Alright, cut the crap, Izzy.
00:51:25Others might buy your ladylike act, but I know you're still the same vicious bully inside.
00:51:31You didn't come to my gym by accident. What's your angle?
00:51:33Neville asked me to befriend you.
00:51:35I don't want to be here.
00:51:37So I can just add that to the list of reasons why I fucking loathe you.
00:51:43What's my angle, Shelby?
00:51:46The complete and utter destruction of Griffin Roy.
00:51:49And if I can take you down with him, all the better.
00:51:58Shelby, listen to me.
00:51:59The press are on their way.
00:52:00I don't have time to explain, but I fucked up.
00:52:02You have to get out of that restaurant.
00:52:04Now.
00:52:09Too late to run.
00:52:10My hubby's here.
00:52:11Leaving so soon, Ms. Trudeau.
00:52:13Or should I say, Mrs. Roy?
00:52:19Come on, Shelby. Pick up.
00:52:20Let me know you got out of there.
00:52:24Who the hell are you?
00:52:26Congressman.
00:52:27Neville LaRoche.
00:52:28I understand why your husband probably never mentioned me.
00:52:31Seeing as how there's so much he hasn't told you.
00:52:34Please, sit down.
00:52:36Isabel was supposed to keep you company until after I arrived.
00:52:40No matter.
00:52:41We'll do this the less genteel way if we must.
00:52:47Both of these men are retired Navy SEALs.
00:52:49I've heard a lot about your fighting skills.
00:52:52So, I came prepared.
00:52:59What's this about?
00:53:02What's this about?
00:53:03I spoke with your stepmother.
00:53:05Margot.
00:53:07She had quite the story to tell.
00:53:09It seems Roy has led you to believe that he's some bum.
00:53:13On the streets.
00:53:14When actually, he's just about one of the wealthiest men in the state.
00:53:19I can't believe you fell for that.
00:53:22Not so smart now, are you, Shelby?
00:53:25You're lying.
00:53:27You are Roy's secret bride.
00:53:30A woman he is so ashamed of, he would hide the marriage for the rest of the world.
00:53:35When the press arrives, you will share your story of betrayal with the voters of Louisiana.
00:53:41So that they may know what kind of man Roy really is.
00:53:54Hey.
00:53:55I got you.
00:53:58Let me go.
00:54:00Shelby, please.
00:54:03Why did you keep your marriage a secret?
00:54:05The voters have a right to know.
00:54:06What else are you hiding?
00:54:08You son of a bitch.
00:54:10Now, Roy.
00:54:11Don't blame others for your own stupid mistakes.
00:54:14Oh.
00:54:24Shelby.
00:54:25Shelby.
00:54:26Please.
00:54:27Hear me out.
00:54:28Don't shell me.
00:54:30God, all of your charm.
00:54:32It's just a lie.
00:54:34I never meant to let it get this far.
00:54:36I planned on coming clean.
00:54:38More lies, Griffin Roy?
00:54:40I was going to tell you today.
00:54:41Convenient.
00:54:43Why didn't you just tell me you were a billionaire from the start?
00:54:45Did you actually think I'd come after you for your money?
00:54:49That was always a possibility.
00:54:52Get away from my house.
00:54:54This is technically my home.
00:54:57God.
00:54:58House hitting my ass.
00:55:00You are the worst and I never want to see you again.
00:55:05Shelby.
00:55:12Congressional candidate Griffin Roy has a secret bride.
00:55:15Our reporter is-
00:55:42You got to get a sip of that?
00:56:13This is private property.
00:56:15Which I own.
00:56:16Liar.
00:56:17Pierce Durand owns this building.
00:56:19He works for me.
00:56:21Then I'll move.
00:56:22I don't want to owe you anything.
00:56:37Oh, Shelby.
00:56:38Shelby.
00:56:39Come out, would you please?
00:56:43I wake up in the morning and reach for you.
00:56:46But you're not there.
00:56:55I can't breathe at the thought of losing you.
00:57:00Mr. Roy, do you think she'll ever forgive you?
00:57:05You're ridiculous.
00:57:06You do know that, don't you?
00:57:08Oh, Shelby.
00:57:09Shelby.
00:57:10Don't leave me hanging.
00:57:12What are you doing?
00:57:13You're supposed to turn it on.
00:57:16Yeah.
00:57:17I got it from a pawn shop.
00:57:20It's broken.
00:57:21Guy totally scammed me.
00:57:23You are beyond ridiculous.
00:57:25Please, Shelby.
00:57:27I didn't say what I wanted to before.
00:57:30Just give me a chance to explain.
00:57:36Fine.
00:57:37Come in, you fool.
00:57:39I'll come into my own house.
00:57:45You have two minutes.
00:57:53Growing up as a Roy,
00:57:57no one ever liked me for me.
00:58:00It's always been about the money, the excess.
00:58:04Then, at a moment, three years ago,
00:58:09where someone did like me for me,
00:58:14they had no idea who I was.
00:58:17And I just remember how freeing it felt.
00:58:24So when I met you,
00:58:26and I felt that spark I've been searching for,
00:58:30I didn't think,
00:58:31I just fucking left.
00:58:34Why wait so long to tell me?
00:58:36I've never gone into enemy territory
00:58:39to cut off weapons supply routes.
00:58:43I boxed in prep school.
00:58:46Yeah, you got that right.
00:58:48But otherwise,
00:58:50I've always been more of a lover
00:58:53rather than a fighter.
00:58:55And I've done well as a lawyer.
00:58:57But I did not earn the respect
00:58:59but I did not earn those billions.
00:59:03I inherited them
00:59:05from generations of dickheads.
00:59:10When you meet a girl who's a total package,
00:59:14you just want to be her total package too.
00:59:17You really are ridiculous.
00:59:20You know, I have laughed more with you in the past two weeks
00:59:22than I have in my entire life.
00:59:25I'm way too serious, Griffin.
00:59:27Sometimes I forget how to let go.
00:59:30But with you, every day is fun.
00:59:33So, does that mean you forgive me?
00:59:36I'm thinking about it.
00:59:41Yeah.
00:59:43You think too much.
00:59:44Time for makeup sex.
00:59:50So, that's makeup sex.
00:59:53Yeah.
00:59:58Griffin, it hurts so much thinking we were over.
01:00:03I never want to feel like that again.
01:00:06I promise not to let anything get in between us.
01:00:15This changes everything.
01:00:18No, thanks for the heads up.
01:00:20I'd appreciate it if you could keep it buried for as long as possible.
01:00:28Run.
01:00:31I want to stay right here.
01:00:40Where the hell are you, Griff?
01:00:43This is DEFCON 1.
01:00:45Hey, man.
01:00:47Seriously? That's all you have to say?
01:00:49Seriously? That's all you have to say?
01:00:54Come on.
01:00:55Come on.
01:01:01How could you keep something like this from me?
01:01:03We've known each other since college.
01:01:05What are you talking about?
01:01:07Didn't you get any of my texts or calls?
01:01:09I must have forgot to charge it.
01:01:11I had quite a night last night.
01:01:13Shelby and I made up.
01:01:15She's forgiven me.
01:01:17Well, she won't forgive you for this.
01:01:20You're a goddamn bigamist, Griffin Roy.
01:01:26Michelle Lane.
01:01:28I don't even know who that is.
01:01:30Well, you knew her well enough to marry her three years ago.
01:01:35This can't be right.
01:01:37I got it from a parish clerk.
01:01:39She's agreed to keep it hush-hush for now.
01:01:41The ceremony was conducted at a church.
01:01:43The priest signed and completed the marriage certificate.
01:01:47Father Timothy O'Shea.
01:01:52I now pronounce ye man and wife.
01:01:55The masked girl from Hardy Grove.
01:01:57I finally know her name.
01:01:59Michelle.
01:02:01Shit.
01:02:03That finally makes sense.
01:02:05Of course you wouldn't knowingly become a bigamist.
01:02:08Shelby.
01:02:10Fuck.
01:02:12What am I going to tell her?
01:02:14Look, it could still be one big mistake.
01:02:16I need to talk to that priest.
01:02:18I have something for you.
01:02:28I hacked into the parish database.
01:02:30Griffin Roy is legally married to both Michelle Lane and Shelby Trudeau.
01:02:35That's it.
01:02:37He's finished.
01:02:39Griffin Roy will be in jail for bigamy or cocteau.
01:02:42He's finished.
01:02:44Griffin Roy will be in jail for bigamy or cocteau.
01:02:48Michelle Lane is Shelby Trudeau.
01:02:51They're legally married to each other on two separate occasions.
01:02:54They just don't know it yet.
01:02:56That's insane.
01:02:58Check the date.
01:03:00They got married the first time during Mardi Gras.
01:03:02Roy was obviously publicly intoxicated.
01:03:05We could use that angle.
01:03:07Yeah, the romance is already trending.
01:03:09He made an idiot of himself with that boombox and voters.
01:03:13They're just eating it up.
01:03:16He's catching up in the polls.
01:03:19Now Roy unknowingly marries twice
01:03:22the girl he's been searching for since Mardi Gras.
01:03:25This will make them seem like some
01:03:27fated love story.
01:03:32This will make them seem like some
01:03:34fated love story.
01:03:35We got nothing on him!
01:03:37Honey, we've got everything we need.
01:03:41What they don't know can definitely hurt them.
01:03:44And right now, to Griffin Roy,
01:03:46Michelle Lane could be anybody.
01:03:51You would have given Machiavelli
01:03:53a run for his money, my dear.
01:03:55Who?
01:03:59Well, we have a very limited window to make this work.
01:04:02We will hit hard, but fast.
01:04:09What is she going to say when I tell her I'm married?
01:04:14All right, ladies, good job.
01:04:16That's it for tonight.
01:04:18Remember, this weekend's Mardi Gras.
01:04:20Have fun, but you know what to do
01:04:22if anybody messes with you.
01:04:24Nice work.
01:04:26Hi.
01:04:28Hungry?
01:04:30Hungry?
01:04:33Yeah, so today's class went super well.
01:04:36Two new students.
01:04:38They really seem to pick up on a lot of things.
01:04:40You're everything I've ever wanted.
01:04:42Everything I didn't even dare to dream.
01:04:44You're it for me.
01:04:46I can't lose you.
01:04:48Griffin, are you okay?
01:04:51Yeah.
01:04:53Just some stuff with the campaign.
01:04:56I want to help.
01:04:57LaRoche can't win.
01:04:59He and Isabel are evil.
01:05:01You're the kind of man that people need.
01:05:03I can't imagine anyone else but myself.
01:05:06I'll come by the campaign office tomorrow.
01:05:08We will plan a siege that surrounds them from all sides.
01:05:13That sounds amazing, Cheryl.
01:05:22Father?
01:05:24I remember the two of you.
01:05:26You had it, lad.
01:05:28That special spark.
01:05:30I don't see it often in couples,
01:05:32but when I do, it makes an impression.
01:05:35You must be mistaken.
01:05:37This woman and I, we'd met that day.
01:05:39And you were already finishing each other's sentences,
01:05:41dying to tie the knot.
01:05:43There was no stopping you.
01:05:45I was drunk.
01:05:47Drunk with love.
01:05:49The man I married knew what he was doing.
01:05:51I mean, how is this even legal?
01:05:53New Orleans has a 24-hour waiting period.
01:05:55Unless the judge waives it.
01:05:57Son of a bitch.
01:05:59Who was it?
01:06:01He was your best man.
01:06:03You called him Remy.
01:06:05Remy Calhoun.
01:06:07That bastard.
01:06:09No wonder he always had that stupid smirk on his face
01:06:11whenever I stood before him in court.
01:06:13Fuck!
01:06:15Fuck!
01:06:18I don't care.
01:06:20I don't care.
01:06:21I love my marriage now.
01:06:23I love my wife.
01:06:25You're in a bit of a pickle,
01:06:27because in my book,
01:06:29you love Joe the wife as well.
01:06:33Sir,
01:06:35Mrs. Roy is in your office with Mr. Durand.
01:06:37Shelby.
01:06:42Griffin,
01:06:44this is the woman you've been looking for.
01:06:46This is Michelle Lane.
01:06:48Hi, Griffin.
01:06:49You might not remember me,
01:06:51but we got married three years ago.
01:06:58So you've been an escort for seven years.
01:07:01That's right. Since high school.
01:07:03And that really is your toddler?
01:07:05My baby girl Fleur.
01:07:07She has no daddy. This will be good for her.
01:07:12If I may ask,
01:07:14how will she pass the DNA test?
01:07:16That is the least of your worries.
01:07:18All right. Chop, chop.
01:07:25Now, action.
01:07:29Hi, Griffin.
01:07:31You might not remember me,
01:07:33but we got married three years ago.
01:07:35It was Mardi Gras.
01:07:37We were completely wasted,
01:07:39and we ended up in some church with an Irish priest.
01:07:41We had a wild night at the hotel,
01:07:43and well,
01:07:45Fleur was the happy accident
01:07:47that happened months later.
01:07:51It can't be true.
01:07:53I've never met you in my life.
01:07:55I mean, you were wearing masks.
01:07:57Yes, that's right. We were.
01:07:59By the time I found out I was pregnant,
01:08:01two months had passed.
01:08:03I've been trying to find you ever since,
01:08:05but it wasn't until I saw one of your ads for Congress
01:08:07that I recognized your voice.
01:08:09It was a miracle.
01:08:11It's too much. She's losing him.
01:08:13Tone it down. Tone it down.
01:08:17Listen, lady,
01:08:19I don't know who you're trying to con with this act.
01:08:21Griffin, don't.
01:08:23But there is no way in hell that I'm married to you.
01:08:26What's going on, Griffin?
01:08:30Is this woman really your wife?
01:08:35No, she's not.
01:08:37We don't know.
01:08:39Which is it?
01:08:41You are my wife. Only you.
01:08:44I understand this is a lot to take in.
01:08:45Fleur and I will just go.
01:08:47I'll have my lawyer reach out.
01:08:49No. No lawyers.
01:08:51We don't need to involve any authorities.
01:08:53This can all be solved with a simple DNA test.
01:08:57Pierce, this woman is a fraud.
01:09:00Griffin, think about it.
01:09:02She says Fleur is your daughter.
01:09:04One little test, and that'll prove if she's lying or not.
01:09:06We need to know, Griffin.
01:09:08I need to know.
01:09:11Fine.
01:09:13But I don't want these doubts to fester.
01:09:15We can rush the DNA results and get them back in a few hours.
01:09:18Might I suggest a more private setting?
01:09:21Less eyes.
01:09:23Understood.
01:09:25We can wait back at my house for the results to come.
01:09:33We've got him.
01:09:35You're up.
01:09:45Bye.
01:09:50Bye.
01:10:06Cute kid.
01:10:08Don't.
01:10:10Just don't.
01:10:12Shelby go upstairs?
01:10:13She fed them snacks and then locked herself in the guest room.
01:10:20I can't lose her, Pierce.
01:10:23I won't.
01:10:33Moment of truth, buddy.
01:10:44Fleur?
01:10:46Meet your daddy.
01:10:48I will, of course, provide for you both financially.
01:10:54Fleur doesn't need a checkbook.
01:10:56She needs a father.
01:11:14What do you want?
01:11:16The guest bedroom is empty.
01:11:19You and Fleur can stay there.
01:11:23Shelby.
01:11:25Just don't do this.
01:11:28Just give me some time.
01:11:30I can fix it.
01:11:32This isn't something you fix.
01:11:34You can't be legally married to me.
01:11:36I can't be legally married to you.
01:11:38I can't be legally married to you.
01:11:40I can't be legally married to you.
01:11:41Pierce, you can't be legally married to two women at the same time and you have a child with one of them.
01:11:49We need to get a divorce.
01:11:54She's right, Griff.
01:11:56Griffin, you have a daughter now.
01:11:58You're a father and you have to put your child first.
01:12:02I can't be Margot.
01:12:04I won't do that to another little girl.
01:12:06I've spent my whole life looking for you.
01:12:11How can I let you go?
01:12:17Sometimes love isn't enough.
01:12:23How did you know Shelby would leave him because of the kid?
01:12:26Shelby's dedicated her life to saving people.
01:12:29It's not in her nature to put herself first.
01:12:31Oh, you're a scary woman.
01:12:33I know.
01:12:39Hi, I'm Jamie.
01:12:41I'm Shelby Trudeau.
01:12:43We've been expecting you.
01:12:44It's true.
01:12:49So this is what it feels like to have your heart shattered?
01:12:52So this is what it feels like to have your heart shattered?
01:13:22That's strange. I thought I heard something.
01:13:45That's strange. I thought I heard something.
01:13:52That's strange. I thought I heard something.
01:14:19It's like she was never here.
01:14:22It's like she was never here.
01:14:34Hey mister?
01:14:36Will you marry me?
01:14:39She took everything but left this behind.
01:14:42Message received, Shelby.
01:14:53What the hell is this?
01:14:57I know this sounds crazy and there's no time to explain but
01:15:01if you help me I promise a generous reward once I get my inheritance.
01:15:05This place is insane.
01:15:07The owner must really trust you.
01:15:12Could it be?
01:15:23It's her. It's always been her.
01:15:28Yeah, it went better than I expected.
01:15:31Yeah, it went better than I expected.
01:15:33As soon as you saw the forged DNA test it was a done deal.
01:15:36Who is she working for?
01:15:38How long am I supposed to stay here while you take care of Shelby?
01:15:41Give me a name. Come on, just one name.
01:15:43Mrs. LaRoche, that's cutting it close.
01:15:46I want to be long gone when he finds out she's dead.
01:15:48Where is Shelby? Where is my wife?
01:15:52Where is Isabelle taking me?
01:15:54I don't know what you're talking about.
01:15:56I will have you put away for the rest of your life
01:15:59and your daughter will grow up in a fucking orphanage.
01:16:02I don't know where she is.
01:16:04If I knew I'd tell you, I swear.
01:16:19What is wrong with me?
01:16:25Help! Somebody help!
01:16:30Do you need some water?
01:16:32Oh wait, I see you've already had some.
01:16:35You poisoned me? Why?
01:16:38Why? Why? Where to begin?
01:16:42Lingering high school issues, offs.
01:16:45I'm helping Neville's campaign, duh.
01:16:49But the real reason, the one that cuts deep,
01:16:52is to make Griffin Roy think he's a bigamist.
01:16:56By the time he figures out he married the same woman twice,
01:17:01he'll have gone missing, vanished without a trace.
01:17:06He'll be forced to withdraw from the race.
01:17:08Later, when an anonymous tip tells the police where to find your body,
01:17:12suspicion will follow Griffin for the rest of his life.
01:17:16Any political future he may have had will be as dead as you.
01:17:20Net?
01:17:22Back up. Married? Twice?
01:17:27Who's the... the woman in the little girl?
01:17:32Oh, just some cheap whore I hired to tell your husband
01:17:35that they've been married for the past three years.
01:17:38When really, it's been you all along.
01:17:42You've been searching for each other all this time,
01:17:45but now he'll never find you.
01:17:48Alright boys, she's all yours.
01:17:57I told you I'd get you back.
01:18:06Miss Tudor, why are you here?
01:18:09My daughter, my... my baby Cece, I'm scared she's gonna do something terrible.
01:18:15What do you mean, terrible? What's going on?
01:18:17I sold everything to get her out on bail and you...
01:18:21What does she do in return? She's... she's gone crazy.
01:18:25She's stuck in Shelby.
01:18:27She tailed her to some hotel in the French Quarter.
01:18:32What hotel?
01:18:33Hotel!
01:18:35Excuse me sir, my sister's staying here, but I've forgotten her room number.
01:18:39It's Shelby Trudeau.
01:18:41Sorry ma'am, we can't disclose any guest information.
01:18:50Shelby...
01:18:54Come out, come out, wherever you are.
01:19:04I think I'll do it with my bare hands.
01:19:07Makes it more personal.
01:19:10Actually, do me a favor, leave a lot of marks on that vase of hers.
01:19:15Fuck you.
01:19:17I want people to see that she suffered, a lot.
01:19:20Oh trust me, she will.
01:19:23Come on, let's get this party started.
01:19:33Shit!
01:19:42Look what you've done!
01:19:46Pansy ass slap!
01:19:49She's stalling, and you're falling for it.
01:19:52Damn, can't go to the valet smelling like a dive bar.
01:19:56I'll never give you your car keys.
01:19:58Shelby has clothes over there.
01:20:00Change.
01:20:01I'll take care of me, you go take care of her.
01:20:10Now that Griffin, Shelby Trudeau changed her name to Michelle Lane.
01:20:15It was after her parents divorced at her mother's request.
01:20:18She only returned to her original name after her mother passed three years ago.
01:20:24It's starting to make sense now.
01:20:27It was harder on my mom.
01:20:28She didn't want anything to do with him, so I cut him off too.
01:20:32Even started using my mom's maiden name.
01:20:35She's the one you've been looking for.
01:20:37It's been her all this time.
01:20:39How could I be so blind?
01:20:41Of course it had to be Shelby, it had to be her.
01:20:44My heart knew what my brain couldn't see.
01:20:48I got it.
01:20:50Your girl's in room 801.
01:20:52Thanks man.
01:20:54Now I can go save the love of my life.
01:20:59Too much to drink.
01:21:01Thanks.
01:21:09Stop right there.
01:21:15Not so fast.
01:21:18Griffin fucking Roy.
01:21:21Finally joined the party.
01:21:23I'm here for my wife.
01:21:25Not gonna happen again.
01:21:26For my wife.
01:21:28Not gonna happen, brah.
01:21:30What you've done here is aggravated assault.
01:21:33But if you leave this hotel with her, it's kidnapping.
01:21:36That is a federal crime.
01:21:38They'll bring in the FBI.
01:21:40Someone will have to be around to identify us.
01:21:43That sure as hell won't be you.
01:21:46Did you get all that, Pierce?
01:21:48Police are on their way.
01:21:50Hang in there, buddy.
01:21:52You're not getting out of here alive, Roy.
01:21:56Fuck.
01:22:12Give me my wife back now!
01:22:27Show me.
01:22:29You alright?
01:22:56Oh my god.
01:23:07Griff, my god.
01:23:09Do you need medical attention?
01:23:11No, but they do.
01:23:21I guess I renewed my man card.
01:23:24Sure did, honey.
01:23:27Oh lord.
01:23:29Please tell me there's something other than fatigues and combat boots in this thing.
01:23:41Shelby!
01:23:43You little bitch!
01:23:45Didn't I say I'd come back here and settle the score?
01:23:48What?
01:23:50That's not Shelby!
01:23:53Put your hands up or I can see them.
01:23:54Put your hands up or I can see them.
01:24:00This is the last one.
01:24:02Hey, hey, hey. I want to make a deal.
01:24:04What do you have to offer up?
01:24:06Congressman Neville LaRoche.
01:24:08I'm all ears.
01:24:15Is it really over?
01:24:17Yeah, it is.
01:24:18It is.
01:24:20Griffin, Isabel said something and I want to believe it, but three years ago, did we...
01:24:29You left us.
01:24:38It's true.
01:24:40I can't believe I finally found you.
01:24:43I looked for you in the face of every woman I ever met.
01:24:48Why'd you never come back?
01:25:06It's called a walk of shame.
01:25:08Not a laugh of it.
01:25:10Mind your own business, Cece.
01:25:12Look at you, Shelby.
01:25:14One Mardi Gras hookup and you think you found happily ever after.
01:25:17That's not how life works.
01:25:19Sure, he may have liked you with a mask on, but he's not going to want you with it off.
01:25:24Look, you both have a great memory now.
01:25:27But you'll look back and you'll see that you're just the clueless chick who didn't know the score.
01:25:34You'll embarrass yourself.
01:25:36And more importantly, you'll embarrass him.
01:25:42I waited in that hotel for two days.
01:25:44I'm sorry I let her get to me.
01:25:46But to be honest, what we had seemed too good to be true.
01:25:50How often do people fall in love with someone without ever seeing their face?
01:25:54Exactly.
01:25:58But I did.
01:26:00And I do.
01:26:02Where do we go from here?
01:26:04Married twice.
01:26:06Deeply in love.
01:26:08Risked our lives to save each other.
01:26:10I'd say we live happily ever after.
01:26:12I'd say we live happily ever after.
01:26:16Shelby, will you...
01:26:19Yes, Griffin Roy.
01:26:24I will always love you.
01:26:27In this life or the next.
