00:00:00That was great. Thank you. Hi.
00:00:16Woo! Adam!
00:00:20That was great. Thank you. Hi. Hi.
00:00:25I cannot stand the thought of being apart from you, even for a month.
00:00:28You've been training for this tennis tournament forever. Don't be silly.
00:00:33You sure you can't come with me?
00:00:35You know I can't. I have to stay and work for my tuition.
00:00:39I'll cover it for you.
00:00:40You're sweet, but I can do this.
00:00:43We'll celebrate once you get back from the tournament.
00:00:46Here. I got this for you.
00:00:49I'm going to promise me you'll wait for me. I love you.
00:00:58I love you, too.
00:01:08Oh, no.
00:01:10What? What am I going to do?
00:01:14I haven't turned him back yet.
00:01:17Dad, stop.
00:01:33You're pregnant? With Adam's baby?
00:01:37Let me go.
00:01:39Look at you. Small town girl, trying to trap Adam with a baby?
00:01:44Get rid of it. My son would never marry someone like you.
00:01:49This is between me and Adam. You have no right to interfere.
00:01:52I'm Adam's mother, and his future means everything to me.
00:01:57Lying, being with you will ruin his life, and he'll regret it sooner or later.
00:02:03No, he won't.
00:02:04If he stays with you, he'll be cut off from this family.
00:02:08He'll have to give up his tennis dreams and marry you and raise a kid.
00:02:14And do you really think your love's going to last?
00:02:34If I tell Adam about the baby, he'll quit the tennis tournament for it, but it's his dream.
00:02:40I can't take that away from him. His mom's right.
00:02:44Adam should be chasing his dreams, not being tied down to me.
00:02:54I'll give you my word, Lena.
00:02:59Lena, I love you. I'll come back for you.
00:03:10Lena, what the hell is going on?
00:03:13I haven't even left yet, and you're cheating on me with this asshole. Is this a joke?
00:03:17No, I just figured it out.
00:03:20I don't know what you're talking about.
00:03:23I haven't even left yet, and you're cheating on me with this asshole. Is this a joke?
00:03:27No, I just figured it out.
00:03:33I promised I'd come back for you, that I'd win the Open, and then we would...
00:03:37Why is everything always about you? Your tennis, your trophies, your career?
00:03:42That's all you care about. But Mark, Mark actually cares about me.
00:03:47Lena, I love you.
00:03:52You're doing this for us. I want to give you the whole world.
00:03:57All you care about is yourself, and you'll only ever be a cocky star.
00:04:02We're done, Adam.
00:04:06That's right, loser. Bye.
00:04:12Now that you've broken up with him, can we start over?
00:04:17Now that you've broken up with him, can we start over?
00:04:21No, Mark. Thank you for pretending.
00:04:29Hi, Mark. Um, I want to get back together.
00:04:34What the hell do you mean? You asked me out.
00:04:38I'm sorry. I don't love you.
00:04:42You crazy bitch! Playing me like that?
00:04:47Don't you ever call me again.
00:04:51I'm sorry, Adam.
00:04:56It's the only solution.
00:05:27Oh, my bad.
00:05:38Oh my goodness.
00:05:47Oh, that's incredible.
00:05:52Have you seen the news? About that celebrity ex of yours?
00:05:57Everyone's saying he's now the most marketable athlete in the country.
00:06:02Thanks for my number.
00:06:07You're the youngest player ever to win the USA Open Tennis Championship.
00:06:12Leaving the club that made you famous can quite be a shock.
00:06:17Just a moment.
00:06:22He did it. Just like he always said he would.
00:06:27What would you say to Adam if you saw him again?
00:06:32I don't know. We've been apart for eight years now.
00:06:41I just know that he can never find out that I have a son with him, okay?
00:06:46No way.
00:06:51I mean, he is a superstar tennis player and I am taking out the trash
00:06:56and scrubbing toilets at the tennis courts in L.A.
00:07:07Lena, it's been eight years.
00:07:12Where are you?
00:07:26Wakey, wakey. Earth to Lena.
00:07:31I need you to mop the floor and take out the trash.
00:07:36Sorry, Lisa, I will do that right now.
00:07:42So if I were you, I wouldn't talk back. Understand, Lena? Garbage. Now.
00:07:47Whatever you say.
00:07:52Come on. Our new star players do any minute and I need this place spotless.
00:07:57So don't embarrass me today.
00:08:02New player.
00:08:08Welcome to the Los Angeles Club, Mr. Superstar.
00:08:15Welcome to the Los Angeles Club, Mr. Superstar.
00:08:20Everything starts today, right? Let's do this.
00:08:25You want to check out the new courts? Yeah, let's go.
00:08:30Adam, I'm missing so much.
00:08:35And then we're getting engaged. Welcome, Adam.
00:08:40We're so happy to have you on our team. Same here.
00:08:45This is my friend Alan. He's going to be training with me at the L.A. Club as well.
00:08:50I'm excited to be here. Can't wait to win the championship with you guys.
00:08:55Same here. Alan, would you mind coming with me?
00:09:05Can you show me where the bathroom is? This way.
00:09:10And here's our locker room.
00:09:15Fully equipped with everything that you'll need. I hope you like it.
00:09:20I like it.
00:09:25I like it.
00:09:40Oh no, he joined the L.A. Club.
00:09:45What's he doing here?
00:09:51Don't touch it!
00:09:56You're covered in trash. You smell like a corpse. What a joke.
00:10:01It was an accident. Sorry, I was just taking out the trash. You're fired.
00:10:06Clean this mess first.
00:10:11Well, I don't work for you anymore, so why should I listen to you?
00:10:16Okay.
00:10:25Wait, Lena.
00:10:30Actually, I'm looking for a personal assistant. Somebody to help me get familiar with the club,
00:10:35help manage my schedule, run errands. I think you'd be perfect for it.
00:10:40What do you say? You wanna be my personal assistant?
00:10:48You wanna be my personal assistant?
00:10:53No. I'm sorry, I don't think I can.
00:11:03Bro, you promised we'd come here and win the trophies for the club,
00:11:08and then we'd be Grand Slam champions.
00:11:13Don't tell me you're here just for Lena.
00:11:18I came for the love of the game, Alan. Don't overthink it. Come on, let's go.
00:11:23Hi!
00:11:28Hi, my sweet boy. Everything okay?
00:11:33Adam? Daddy?
00:11:38You told him?
00:11:43You told him? No.
00:11:48Oh wow, you have no idea how similar Sterling is to his dad.
00:11:53No, buddy. I'm not your dad. My name's Adam. I'm the new player at the club.
00:11:58You're a tennis player? I love tennis. Could you teach me?
00:12:03Sure. Come on.
00:12:08Alright, another one. Perfect. Perfect. Alright, last one. One more.
00:12:13Mommy!
00:12:18No, Adam. We have a son.
00:12:23This is my son, Sterling.
00:12:28She left me for Mark. Is Sterling their kid?
00:12:33So did you want him to join the club?
00:12:38Yeah. He's really talented. I'd like to help him achieve his dreams.
00:12:43This kid's really talented. I'd like him to be part of our club.
00:12:48I think he should join the club.
00:12:53Alright, Sterling can join the club.
00:12:58How can you be so calm?
00:13:03If the secret dad of my baby showed up after eight years, I would lose my mind.
00:13:08Yeah, it was crazy. Are you going to tell him?
00:13:13Oh, hi. It's so nice to see you. Sorry I didn't tell you that I had your kid when I ditched you.
00:13:18Oh, by the way, thank you so much for getting me fired.
00:13:23You know, I need to find out why he's offering me this assistant job.
00:13:28I don't trust him.
00:13:33Well, I think you should take the job. He's probably still into you.
00:13:38Oh, okay. He's a big superstar now. And what am I?
00:13:43Well, you need the job and you need the money.
00:13:48So swallow your pride and take the assistant position, okay?
00:13:53And Adam has a right to know that he has a son.
00:13:58You can't keep Sterling from his father forever.
00:14:03Lisa.
00:14:34Adam.
00:14:39It was great.
00:14:44Thank you. Hi.
00:14:49Adam should be looking at me, not that dirty tramp.
00:14:54I swear after today, she'll never set foot on this court again.
00:15:04Hey, Adam. Here's your new tennis uniform.
00:15:09The other players will be here soon, so don't keep it waiting.
00:15:14I'm just going to take a quick shower and I'll come out and meet everybody.
00:15:20Seriously?
00:15:25Oops. Sorry, Lena. That was an accident.
00:15:30Sure it was. You should go rinse off.
00:15:35Don't want you stinking up the place.
00:15:40Why is she so awful?
00:15:45The show's about to start.
00:15:57Hey, Adam wasn't there taking a shower and Lena walked in.
00:16:02It was like she was trying to secretly film him or something.
00:16:07What? Yeah.
00:16:12Why are you here?
00:16:17You want to tell me what you're doing in the men's room?
00:16:22Oh my God. Did you hear that?
00:16:27We gotta go in there and see what's going on.
00:16:32Here we go, Lena. Don't let us catch you being embarrassing.
00:16:37Is Lena in here? I heard her screaming.
00:16:42Lisa?
00:16:47I told you that I would meet the team after I showered and no, Lena's not here.
00:16:52No, I'm certain I heard Lena scream.
00:16:57I heard Lena screaming. She went into the men's bathroom.
00:17:02If you guys really want to see me naked, then just come on in, I guess.
00:17:07No, I... Go.
00:17:12You know, if you really wanted to accept my job proposal, you could have just called me instead of dropping in on me like this.
00:17:17Why didn't you tell me you have a son?
00:17:22Why didn't you tell me you were joining the tennis club I work at?
00:17:27Are you stalking me?
00:17:32Stalking you? No, this was a professional choice.
00:17:37I had no idea that you were here. What is that supposed to mean?
00:17:42You don't have a wedding ring on? You're working a dead end job? You're picking up trash?
00:17:47That is none of your business.
00:17:52It's okay, Lena. I can tell you don't have to hide it.
00:17:57You should really consider my job proposal.
00:18:02I do need a job because I still have Sterling to raise.
00:18:07You need the job and you need the money, so swallow your pride and take the assistant position, okay?
00:18:12Fine, I'll accept your job and I'll do my very best.
00:18:17But you and I will work together as equals, right?
00:18:22Okay.
00:18:27That's all I want, Lena.
00:18:32Well then have a wonderful shower.
00:18:42Surprise!
00:18:47What do you think of these engagement rings, sir?
00:18:52They look great, Lisa.
00:19:02At that moment I heard the sound of my heart breaking.
00:19:07Wow!
00:19:12Mommy, I made these cupcakes by myself. Try them. I bet they're delicious.
00:19:17Thank you, my sweet boy.
00:19:22Mr. Taylor, listen, I don't think...
00:19:27Hi, Lena. It's good to hear your voice.
00:19:32I need you to go to the mall for me and pick up a jacket. It's urgent.
00:19:37Okay, can this wait until Monday, please?
00:19:42This is work, Lena. The store owner is expecting you today.
00:19:47So now get going. Pick up the jacket for me. I'll send the address.
00:19:52Adam, I...
00:19:57Some weekend.
00:20:02Mommy, look at that dress.
00:20:07It would be so beautiful in it.
00:20:12Thank you, sweetheart. I can't afford a new dress right now, but it is so pretty.
00:20:17Would you please get your dirty little hands off that?
00:20:22Oh, now you've gotten the dress dirty. You're going to pay for that.
00:20:27I'm sorry. You startled my son. It was an accident.
00:20:32Excuse me? This is daycare or social services.
00:20:37So you're going to have to take responsibility for your actions.
00:20:42Okay. Yeah, well, take responsibility. How much is the dress?
00:20:47$15,000.
00:20:52Sir, I don't have $15,000. Can we please come up with some sort of agreement or something?
00:20:57No, no, no, no. You destroyed it. You pay for it.
00:21:02You're not going to get away.
00:21:07Fine.
00:21:12I'll pay for the damaged dress. How much?
00:21:17$15,000.
00:21:22No, Adam. What's going on here?
00:21:27Oh, my dear Mr. Adam. What a surprise. How can I assist you?
00:21:32Mr. Taylor's bullying us.
00:21:37How appalling. You're fired.
00:21:42Here's $100,000.
00:21:47Pack up the damaged dress as well as, what do you think, that one and that one.
00:21:52Send them to my place. It's my pleasure. Absolutely.
00:21:57Thank you, Mr. Taylor. You're welcome, buddy.
00:22:02Thank you. Pretty rough day for my assistant, huh? Don't worry. I'll cover all this.
00:22:07Sorry. I'm your biggest fan. Can I take a picture?
00:22:12Sure. Yeah, of course.
00:22:17Jenny, I can't do this. I haven't been to a party in ages. Plus, I have Sterling to take care of.
00:22:22It's already 7 and you're not taking care of your own needs. And what's going on with Adam?
00:22:27We are so over.
00:22:32Well, then it's even more important to go out. I'll be waiting for you at the party, Lena. Don't miss it.
00:22:37Hey, don't hang up on me, Jenny.
00:22:42Why do you always do this to me?
00:22:47Stop dwelling on old forgotten college memories. No point.
00:22:52Come on. Let me get you a drink. I'm good with my own.
00:22:57Don't tell me you're still hung up on Lena. You're engaged to Lisa.
00:23:02It's killing me, man. I mean, she had a kid with Mark and she didn't tell me until I found out today when I met the kid myself.
00:23:07That sucks. All right. It's time to chill out. Your fiancée Lisa is coming.
00:23:13Hey, Adam. Hey, Lisa. Let's have some fun tonight.
00:23:18Oh, man. Is that Lena?
00:23:23Come on, Jenny. You convinced me to come and then you're a no show. Great.
00:23:28Hey, nice to meet you.
00:23:33Hi. Hey, check out Lena.
00:23:38You're a weirdo. A bit embarrassing, huh?
00:23:43Dude, seriously? It doesn't bother you at all?
00:23:48Why would it? It's got to be the ugliest, funniest dance I've ever seen in my life.
00:23:53Hey, Adam, forget that goofy dance of yours. Tonight, I'll make it with your wife.
00:23:58Lisa, you are gorgeous, but I'm just not in the mood.
00:24:03Come on. Tonight, I'm yours and you're mine.
00:24:18Oh, oh. Hey, don't touch her.
00:24:24Oh, you're Adam Taylor.
00:24:29Dude, I'm so sorry. I did not realize she was yours.
00:24:34Try it again and watch what happens.
00:24:39You're loud and clear. I'll just leave.
00:24:44Aren't you going to say something smart about how you're a hero and you saved the day?
00:24:49So it's not about the time. It's Sterling Mark's son.
00:24:56Does it matter to you? You're marrying Lisa.
00:25:01How did you know? Congratulations.
00:25:09Stay away from my fiancé.
00:25:15You'd rather focus on that low life than look at me, right?
00:25:20Don't you ever do that to her again.
00:25:30Don't you cry, Nina. Don't you dare cry.
00:25:35One second.
00:25:41Nina, are you in here?
00:25:46Yeah.
00:25:51You alright?
00:25:56Yes, Adam. I'm fine.
00:26:01You want to tell me what's really been going on the past eight years?
00:26:06A small town girl trying to trap Adam with a baby.
00:26:11Well, get rid of it. My son would never marry someone like you.
00:26:16Even though Sterling is Adam's son, I can't tell him because he's engaged to Lisa.
00:26:21Why are you bringing this up?
00:26:26Are you so mad that I dumped you?
00:26:31You're right in front of me. If you can't admit that, then you're weaker than I thought you were.
00:26:36You know, you really don't know me at all. Didn't you move on? Aren't you engaged to Lisa?
00:26:41It's not what you think. It's my mom's idea. I don't love her.
00:26:46Before you go.
00:26:51What are you doing?
00:26:56We'll turn around while I change.
00:27:01You know, I really appreciate you offering me this job so that I can care for Sterling.
00:27:06But if we're going to be working together, I really think that we should just keep
00:27:11this professional, you know?
00:27:16If that's what you want, then I'm alright with that.
00:27:26How long has Mark been gone?
00:27:31Is she really raising her son alone?
00:27:46Hey, I need you guys to handle something for me.
00:27:51Lena, you're not going to steal my fiance.
00:27:56He's mine. All mine.
00:28:01Hey, hey, hey.
00:28:06Look at you looking like a little cute puppy dog. That's cool. I like doggy style anyways.
00:28:11You guys need to leave. The court is closed.
00:28:16Hey, let me ask you this first, sweetie.
00:28:21Do you really work for that famous tennis player guy? Or are you just his little hooker?
00:28:26If you don't get out of here, I'll call the police.
00:28:31Oh, come on, honey. Don't be like that.
00:28:36Oh, hey, I was just trying to get a tennis ball out of your assistant's fat ass, but it looks like it was stuck.
00:28:42Watch your mouth. Calm down, bro. We're just playing.
00:28:50Oh, really? You want to play around too?
00:28:55She's my assistant. She'll be treated with respect. Now get out of here.
00:29:00Come on, homie, let's go.
00:29:05Well, I take back what I said before. What did you say?
00:29:10You just sit up to those punks. That was pretty amazing.
00:29:15Oh, Adam, I told you. You really don't know me at all.
00:29:20Well, I do know one thing about you. Oh, yeah?
00:29:25You're stubborn as hell. You haven't changed in eight years.
00:29:30I love that about you.
00:29:35Oh, once you have a kid, you kind of become a walk-in first aid kit.
00:29:40How do you take care of Sterling all by yourself? Does your mom help?
00:29:45She actually passed away before I graduated.
00:29:50I'm so sorry.
00:29:55I have Jenny. I mean, she's been so helpful. She's like a sister to me, you know?
00:30:01And you joined the pro circuit, got everything you wanted, right?
00:30:06Not everything I wanted.
00:30:23Adam!
00:30:26My dad's looking for you. We gotta go.
00:30:31I gotta go.
00:30:36Thanks for the band-aid. Yeah, anytime.
00:30:41Mark! Adam! What's up, man?
00:30:46Well, Adam, I told you. You really don't know me at all.
00:30:52If you won't tell me the whole story, I'll find out myself.
00:31:02Glad you made it home in one piece, Lena.
00:31:07I'm your biggest fan, man.
00:31:12Want a drink? No, I'm good.
00:31:17What are you doing here today, buddy? I'm here to talk about Lena.
00:31:22What's a little witch up to these days, huh?
00:31:27And look, don't get mad. I know she dumped you for me, but honestly, you dodged a major bullet.
00:31:32Doesn't sound like things ended well between you two. Ended? We never even started.
00:31:37Five minutes after you left, she dumped me. She's crazy, man.
00:31:42Sterling isn't yours.
00:31:47Who the hell's Sterling? Sterling, Lena's eight-year-old son?
00:31:52If Sterling isn't Mark's son, then who's his father?
00:31:57Why would I care? The kid's not mine. Lena always hated my guts.
00:32:02And as for the kid, who knows what that bitch hooked up with?
00:32:07Don't tell me you're still into her.
00:32:12Man, you know what I really want?
00:32:17I really want to see if Lena's body is still as hot as it was.
00:32:22Maybe I should call her.
00:32:27You and Lena are both nuts! You are perfect for each other!
00:32:37Hey, gorgeous. Long time no see.
00:32:42What are you guys still doing here? Police! Look!
00:32:47Get her, quick!
00:32:52Sterling isn't Mark's son. Why didn't Lena tell me?
00:32:57Shut up!
00:33:03You messed with the wrong person.
00:33:14Run!
00:33:22I have you. You alright? I'm fine.
00:33:27Look, I'm going to figure out who's behind this, but until then, you can't be going out after dark.
00:33:32I'm worried about you. I'm alright.
00:33:37I think Lisa is behind this. I just feel like...
00:33:42I'm going to take you home.
00:33:47I thought we were going to just keep this professional.
00:33:52Well, thank you for saving me...
00:33:57again. Anytime. I'd do anything for you.
00:34:07Look, I know that you and Mark never got back together eight years ago.
00:34:12So tell me, is Sterling my...
00:34:17Hey, buddy.
00:34:22Hey, Uncle Adam, why are you here?
00:34:27Well, your mom was having some car problems, so I gave her a ride home.
00:34:32Is it serious? How come the car has issues? Is it a big deal?
00:34:37No, no, no. It's not a big deal, I think.
00:34:42Can I go home now?
00:34:47By the way, I'm Jenny, Lena's best friend.
00:34:52You know, I actually heard that Adam is very, very busy tonight, right?
00:34:57So he can't stay for dinner.
00:35:02You can't escape, Lena. Not until you tell me the truth.
00:35:07You always say you need more friends.
00:35:12Sweet Pea, why don't you show Adam in?
00:35:17He looks just like you.
00:35:22He looks just like you, too, Adam.
00:35:27Uncle Adam, what's your favorite color?
00:35:32Black. What's yours?
00:35:37Oh, mine is blue, but black's my second favorite color.
00:35:42Why are you always around? Do you work with my mom? Are you friends?
00:35:47Baby, let's not ask too many questions, okay?
00:35:52It's okay. Your mom and I are old friends, and yeah, she works for me now.
00:35:57I bet you will.
00:36:02I wonder where you get your talent from. It's not your mom. She could never hit a ball.
00:36:07Maybe from my dad.
00:36:17Sorry, I gotta go. My brother keeps texting me.
00:36:22Bye, sweet pie. Good night.
00:36:27Pull yourself together, Lena. Either tell Adam that Sterling is his son now,
00:36:32or kick him out of the house before he realizes he's Sterling's father himself.
00:36:37You okay? Yes.
00:36:42It's just that Sterling needs to go to bed.
00:36:47Um, so you should go home.
00:36:52I don't want him to go home. I want him to read me a bedtime story.
00:36:57I'd love to, if it's okay with your mom.
00:37:02I'd love to, if it's okay with your mom.
00:37:07Please can you make him stay for a bedtime story? Okay.
00:37:12One story.
00:37:17And now you are home, cried his mother happily.
00:37:22And they all agreed there was no place better than home. The end.
00:37:43I know what you want, and I can't give that to you right now, okay?
00:37:48How would you know what I want? Eight years ago you said I'd forget about you.
00:37:53Not a day has gone by that I haven't thought about you, Lena.
00:37:58So?
00:38:01You used to think I was immature and a jerk, and all I cared about was tennis.
00:38:06It was never like that.
00:38:11I care about you, Lena. Why are you telling me this?
00:38:16Aren't you engaged to Lisa? I mean, what do you want from me, Adam?
00:38:25I just want to talk. Do you really think that leaving me was the right choice?
00:38:33If he stays with you, he'll be cut off from this family.
00:38:38He'll have his dreams and marry you and raise a kid.
00:38:43Do you really think your love's going to last?
00:38:48Yes. I think it was the right choice, and it was the very best thing I've ever done.
00:38:53I should probably leave. I'm really tired.
00:38:58Ugh, this woman. Ugh, this man.
00:39:04I think that's what you really want.
00:39:09I mean, she said it's the best thing that she's ever done.
00:39:14She can't be serious, right? I mean, I'm famous now.
00:39:19She's the one that gave up on us.
00:39:24She won't even give me an explanation.
00:39:30I know you don't want to hear it, but I still love her, and she still loves you.
00:39:35Wait, did you just say she loves me? How do you know?
00:39:40Because of the way she looks at you. It seems like she still likes you.
00:39:45You got an idea.
00:39:50You know, I basically kicked him out.
00:39:56I don't know, Jenny, my heart is a mess. I kind of wanted him to stay.
00:40:01Call him back right now and ask him to come back.
00:40:06No, I can't do that.
00:40:11I'll call you back.
00:40:16I had car problems. Car problems? What happened?
00:40:22The carburetor. It wouldn't start. I'm kind of stuck here.
00:40:27Did you call an Uber? My phone died.
00:40:32Okay, I will call you once. No, no, no.
00:40:37I couldn't possibly let you pay for me. That's ridiculous.
00:40:42Pay me back or give me a raise. I don't know.
00:40:48It's late and I am exhausted.
00:40:53Can I stay the night? I just need the couch, please.
00:40:58Adam, Lisa.
00:41:03I might even wake up early and make you pancakes.
00:41:08Can't a friend crash for the night?
00:41:13I can't push him away this time.
00:41:18Maybe I'll tell him tomorrow morning.
00:41:23You can stay. Don't burn the house down.
00:41:28That smile. Why does it still get to me?
00:41:33Yes, Vegas was the plan. It didn't work out that way.
00:41:38I was actually in London for Wimbledon and I was only with my mom,
00:41:43so it was not the best 21st birthday.
00:41:48Yeah, not great.
00:41:53You know, seeing you with Mark, it broke me.
00:41:58I'm sorry. I thought you would move on quickly.
00:42:03Move on? You have no idea how deeply I felt about you.
00:42:08You know, I...
00:42:13I had this elaborate plan to make you pay for what you did to me.
00:42:18But since I saw you,
00:42:23all I can think about is how I want to be close to you.
00:42:29We're drunk.
00:42:33We're colleagues. You're engaged.
00:42:38It's you, Lena. It's only ever been you.
00:42:58I wish I could be with him.
00:43:03I'm going to win her back.
00:43:08See? Just like this. Perfect.
00:43:13Awesome!
00:43:18These are going to look great. We are almost done.
00:43:23I did it too.
00:43:28Oops. You're a mess.
00:43:33It's okay. I like it.
00:43:38We're colleagues. You're engaged.
00:43:43It's you, Lena. It's only ever been you.
00:43:48Making waffles with Uncle Adam.
00:43:53Really? Are they ready?
00:43:58Try one. We put lots of love in it. And your favorite, strawberries.
00:44:03Delicious.
00:44:08Of course they are. Sterling helped. He's a great kid.
00:44:13You'll never find out about him.
00:44:18Okay. Well, I am going to go get changed. And you two clean up, please.
00:44:23We'll eat together, yeah? Okay.
00:44:33Sterling, you have the same dimple as Uncle Adam.
00:44:38Yeah, I like it. Do you?
00:44:43Yeah.
00:44:48I'm sorry, buddy. I gotta go.
00:44:53I heard the door. Did Adam leave? Yeah, he did.
00:44:58Why?
00:45:03I mean, maybe he needs a moment alone, but I have to tell him the truth.
00:45:14Let me get this straight. You think Sterling is our son? But you didn't say anything to Lena and just left.
00:45:19So you didn't say anything and just let him go?
00:45:24Yeah, there's gotta be some emergency going on.
00:45:29I don't know what to do, man. I mean, Sterling is sitting right there, so I can't confront Lena in front of him.
00:45:34Why wouldn't she just tell me?
00:45:39Why didn't you say anything? You had a chance to tell him the truth.
00:45:44Only Lena can answer that. You gotta sit down and talk to her.
00:45:49Enough, Lena. You have to tell him the truth.
00:45:54Adam?
00:45:59Okay. Yeah, I'll meet you there.
00:46:13I have something to tell you.
00:46:18It's time. What do you mean?
00:46:23You don't think I know anything, do you?
00:46:28Tennis isn't the only thing I think about. And I'm not stupid.
00:46:33I get it.
00:46:38Don't you think it's weird that Sterling called me dad when he first met me? That he loves tennis?
00:46:43That he has that dimple on his cheek when he smiles?
00:46:48Well, you don't know what happened.
00:46:53Lena, please. Just tell me the truth. That's all I want.
00:47:04Sterling is your son.
00:47:09Sterling is your son.
00:47:15How could you, a bitch, possibly give birth to Adam's child?
00:47:20Lisa, what are you doing here?
00:47:25She's a bitch. And that kid couldn't possibly be yours. It's gotta be from some other man.
00:47:30Bitch, how dare you steal my fiancé?
00:47:35Lisa, I was with Adam before he even knew you. He's the father of my son.
00:47:40Listen to her. I love you. Don't you like me too?
00:47:45I told you. It's just a casual thing for me. We wouldn't have even been engaged if it weren't for my mother. We could have been friends.
00:47:50No, Adam. We're in love. It's because of her that you don't love me anymore, right?
00:47:55How naive. Lisa, Adam never loved you.
00:48:00The only reason I left him was for his career.
00:48:05You left me for my career?
00:48:10I'm sorry, Adam. I just wanted you to succeed so badly, and we were too different at that time.
00:48:15I was pregnant. I didn't want to hold you back. I had to lie to you.
00:48:20So you never loved Mark? Never?
00:48:25Of course not. I love you, Adam.
00:48:30Stop it, Lisa.
00:48:35Stop it, Lisa.
00:48:40I'm your fiancé, and she's trying to ruin us.
00:48:45I love Lena. I've always loved Lena.
00:48:50Lisa, I've had enough of you.
00:48:55I hate you. I hate you.
00:49:00Stop, Lisa. I'm not going to let you hurt Lena.
00:49:05Why do you always defend Lena?
00:49:10Lisa, we're done, and I don't want to lie to you, and I don't want to see you hurt Lena anymore because I love her. Do you understand me?
00:49:15No, I don't want to cancel the engagement. Please.
00:49:20No. No, I love you.
00:49:25Don't you dare hurt Lena or Sterling, or I'll make sure you regret it.
00:49:50I'm so sorry that I let her hurt you, Adam.
00:49:55It's okay.
00:50:00She always hated me, and I knew once she found out I was her fiancé's ex, she'd never let it go.
00:50:05It's my fault.
00:50:10I think we should give each other another chance.
00:50:15To fall in love again.
00:50:20Really? You mean that?
00:50:25I love you, Lena.
00:50:45I love you, too.
00:50:50Let me have you again.
00:50:55I love you.
00:51:00I love you.
00:51:05I love you.
00:51:10I love you, too.
00:51:15Let me have you again.
00:51:30Mommy!
00:51:35Sterling, I got you a gift. I hope you like it.
00:51:40Oh, this is my favorite. Thank you so much, Uncle Adam.
00:51:45You're welcome, buddy.
00:51:54Mommy, Uncle Adam says he wants to invite us to participate together in a competition.
00:52:02That's wonderful.
00:52:07This weekend. I think you've lost your cover. Sterling, we get to meet everybody. I think you'd enjoy it.
00:52:12I'd love that. Mommy, can we go?
00:52:17Of course, sweetie.
00:52:22Jenny, you were invited, too.
00:52:28Could it be that Alan likes you?
00:52:33Stop kidding. We're just friends.
00:52:38Lena, I will never allow you to steal my prince.
00:52:43I'm the million-dollar celebrity wife.
00:52:57This is amazing. I can't wait to watch the match.
00:53:02Me, too.
00:53:07Cool.
00:53:12This is awesome.
00:53:17Jenny, look at the feet.
00:53:23I'm so excited.
00:53:28I'm so excited.
00:53:33Jenny texted. They're almost here.
00:53:38You two are getting pretty close.
00:53:43Absolutely, man.
00:53:49Come on in. Have a seat and relax.
00:53:57How dare you show up to my fiancé's match? I won't let this slide.
00:54:02What do you want, Lisa?
00:54:07What do you want, Lisa? Get out of here, you little whore.
00:54:12I won't let you seduce my fiancé.
00:54:17I'm not his fiancé anymore.
00:54:22Adam, good luck. Today we'll be cheering you on.
00:54:27If anybody gives you or Sterling any trouble, you let me know and I'll handle it.
00:54:32I'm sure we'll be just fine. You just focus on your match.
00:54:37Hey, Adam. Good luck with your match.
00:54:42Hey, what if I join you at the interview after the match?
00:54:47Why would you do that?
00:54:52Because we're engaged and we're going to get married and we should go public.
00:54:57We're not getting married and we're not engaged anymore, Lisa.
00:55:02Adam, I love you.
00:55:07No.
00:55:22We are live here today at the championship match.
00:55:27All eyes are on Adam, star player of the day.
00:55:32Adam, Adam, Adam, Adam, Adam.
00:55:37Adam, we're so proud of you.
00:55:42Adam, Adam, Adam, Adam.
00:55:474-0, Nick's got nothing on our superstar Adam.
00:55:52Incredible, just incredible.
00:56:02Hell, this just got interesting, it seems we have a story brewing off the court.
00:56:19Adam, we're so proud of you!
00:56:23And if rumor has it, Adam may be more than just a star player today.
00:56:27There's speculation involving a mystery son in the audience.
00:56:32Mommy, is Uncle Adam my dad?
00:56:37But you told me my dad was gone.
00:56:41Sweetie, I'm sorry I didn't tell you the truth sooner.
00:56:45Adam is your dad.
00:56:47I finally have a dad!
00:56:49Go daddy!
00:56:51Adam, fight!
00:56:57Adam!
00:57:02Adam!
00:57:03Adam's injury is your fault.
00:57:05Get out with your illegitimate son.
00:57:07Sterling, cover your ears and close your eyes super tight, okay?
00:57:13You did this, didn't you?
00:57:15So what if I did?
00:57:16How dare you bring Sterling into this?
00:57:18This is my life, my personal business.
00:57:20No, Adam belongs with me, not some broke-ass nobody like you.
00:57:24You stole my chance to tell Sterling about his dad.
00:57:28Tough luck, bitch.
00:57:30Security! Get them out, please.
00:57:33Bye, and don't ever come back here again.
00:57:39I'm sorry, sweetie. I'm so sorry.
00:57:41This isn't on you, Lena.
00:57:43Lisa's just awful.
00:57:45She's pure evil.
00:57:47She exposed Sterling's identity to the public and then she blocked me from seeing Adam.
00:57:52I'm so worried about his injury.
00:57:54Lena, Adam's injury might be serious.
00:57:57You need to see him right now.
00:57:59What?
00:58:07Lena, are you alright?
00:58:09Where's Sterling?
00:58:11Adam, it's me.
00:58:13Don't worry, I'm here for you.
00:58:15What are you doing here?
00:58:17Where's Lena?
00:58:18Forget about her.
00:58:20She caused your injury and caused you the championship.
00:58:23Please send her home.
00:58:25Who gave you the right to do that?
00:58:27Ah, my knee.
00:58:30Adam, you should rest. Stop thinking about that woman.
00:58:34Adam. Adam, I'm so sorry. You should have been here so long ago.
00:58:38It's okay. I'm glad to see you.
00:58:41You are the reason that Adam is injured. If you hadn't exposed Sterling's secret...
00:58:45You did that, Lisa.
00:58:47Adam, please. I can explain.
00:58:49Get out. I never want to see you again.
00:58:52You are being such a nuisance.
00:58:54No. No. No, Adam, please. No.
00:58:58Excuse me, ladies.
00:59:00The patient needs some rest.
00:59:02Please, no more commotion.
00:59:05I'm sorry, Mr. Taylor, but based on our diagnosis, your knee...
00:59:10What about my knee?
00:59:12Please brace yourself.
00:59:14As a renowned tennis player, I can only imagine that this must be very difficult,
00:59:18but it appears that your knee will never really fully recover.
00:59:29No. No. No. No. No. This isn't happening.
00:59:34Sorry, sir. It's true.
00:59:37Can he still play tennis? Can he still be a tennis star? Tell me.
00:59:42I'm very sorry to tell you, but he will never play tennis again.
00:59:46But if we undergo aggressive rehabilitation, is there hope?
00:59:49I'm a certified sports rehabilitation specialist. I can help. I can help him.
00:59:55It's highly unlikely, but perhaps.
01:00:00Sorry.
01:00:03No. Adam can't stop being a tennis champion.
01:00:06What about our engagement?
01:00:08I'm supposed to be a tennis star's wife.
01:00:11This can't be happening.
01:00:13Will you stop? You are only thinking about yourself. You don't even love Adam.
01:00:17Get out, both of you.
01:00:22No. I'm not marrying a disabled man.
01:00:24The engagement's off.
01:00:27Shut up and get out.
01:00:31I'm sorry. It will be okay. I promise.
01:00:35I am going to help you through your rehab.
01:00:39You should be too.
01:00:41I'm just a cripple now. Not a tennis player.
01:00:45And I never will be again.
01:00:48No. No, Adam. You're going to get better.
01:00:51And I'm going to be there with you every step of the way.
01:00:54And then I'm going to marry you.
01:01:01Really?
01:01:06Of course.
01:01:08I love you.
01:01:09I love you so much and we're going to get through this together.
01:01:14Okay?
01:01:16The doctor said there's no hope for a full recovery.
01:01:19Well then, it'll take a miracle.
01:01:24Okay.
01:01:25Let's get you used to this.
01:01:30Lena!
01:01:31I already warned you to stay away from my son.
01:01:35You're really nothing but bad luck.
01:01:37What are you talking about, Mom?
01:01:40And tell me now, did you have something to do with her breaking up with me eight years ago?
01:01:43Adam, I made a difficult decision.
01:01:45I asked Lena to leave and asked her to consider giving up the pregnancy because I believed it was what was best for you.
01:01:52You are destroying me.
01:01:53You took away the love of my life and almost cost me my son.
01:01:56Adam, calm down. Your mom just came to see you. I'll go.
01:02:00No. You're not going anywhere.
01:02:05I'm not hiding from my mother anymore.
01:02:08I'm marrying Lena and I'm keeping my promise.
01:02:11I won't allow it. You're married to Lisa.
01:02:14And how is it that you're just coming up with this now? Is she pressuring you?
01:02:18I'm not engaged to Lisa anymore. She just called it off.
01:02:21Turns out she didn't want to be married to a cripple.
01:02:23What?
01:02:25But Lena, on the other hand, is willing to stick by me through it all.
01:02:30I can help him with his rehabilitation. You just have to trust me, please.
01:02:37If you truly think you can help Adam recover, then I won't interfere.
01:03:00This place is amazing. It's like a palace. I love it.
01:03:05I'm glad you do.
01:03:07Lena, I trust you with Adam's care and I'm sorry for everything that happened before.
01:03:14It's all in the past now. Let's just focus on Adam's recovery.
01:03:21I've arranged for you a room on the first floor with a maid and a house doctor.
01:03:27So you can call them for anything.
01:03:31Adam's recovery is in your hands now.
01:03:34It's good to see you two getting along.
01:03:45I saw you kept our photos.
01:03:49Such great memories.
01:03:52I just couldn't let them go.
01:03:54I threw them all in the trash, but I regretted it immediately.
01:03:59I didn't want to lose them like I lost you.
01:04:02I'm so sorry, Adam.
01:04:09I'll go get you some ice for your knee, okay?
01:04:11Be right back.
01:04:19Damn it!
01:04:27Oh, um, here, let me hand it to you.
01:04:30It's fine, it's just a scratch. Please don't make a fuss.
01:04:34What am I, am I not doing enough?
01:04:37No, Lena, you're amazing. I, look at me.
01:04:41I've gone from tennis superstar to stuck in this wheelchair.
01:04:45It is just temporary.
01:04:47And you are going to be back on that court, I promise you.
01:04:50I can't do the simplest things. I have no self-confidence.
01:04:53We're going to work together to build it up.
01:04:55I'm a professional sports therapist now, okay?
01:04:59Just trust me.
01:05:02Former tennis superstar Adam, sidelined by a race mishap, may never return to the courts.
01:05:09Don't listen to that.
01:05:10No.
01:05:11Okay, you can do this.
01:05:12Just get out. Leave me alone. I can do this by myself.
01:05:14Adam, please. It will only hurt more if you push us away.
01:05:17I'm already hurting, Lena.
01:05:19So stop pitying me and just get out.
01:05:28You're only marrying me out of pity, right?
01:05:30No, Adam. I love you, no matter what.
01:05:33You love me. Look at me.
01:05:37I'm disabled. I'm stuck in this wheelchair for the rest of my life.
01:05:41I'm never going to play tennis again. I'm, I'm gone.
01:05:43How could you possibly love me?
01:05:47Maybe there's someone else who could help Adam.
01:05:57I'm back.
01:05:59Mommy!
01:06:02Is Daddy okay? I miss him.
01:06:07Baby, if Daddy needs you, will you help him?
01:06:09Of course. I'll help Daddy.
01:06:12Good boy. I just know you will be Dad's little angel.
01:06:16And once he sees you, he will be so inspired to get better.
01:06:30Sterling. It's so good to see my Sterling.
01:06:33Daddy, I missed you.
01:06:36It's so good to hear you call me that.
01:06:37But I'm sorry that you got to see me like this, buddy.
01:06:39No. Daddy, you're my hero. I'm proud of you.
01:06:43You encouraged me to be a tennis player, so I practice every day.
01:06:47Good boy.
01:06:48But I want Daddy's support. I want to be like Daddy.
01:06:51So, Daddy, let's get healthy together.
01:06:54You really think I'm a hero, Sterling?
01:06:56Of course. You're always a hero. A big hero.
01:07:00I'm going to keep on trying to be your hero. I won't let you down.
01:07:03I believe in you, Daddy.
01:07:06Ada, I'm so sorry for the way I treated you. There's no excuse.
01:07:12You and my mom have been so helpful to me. I'm sorry that I never should have given up.
01:07:18It's okay. I'm just happy to see you back on the right track.
01:07:23Oh, I think your mom wants to say hi.
01:07:28My son, I'm so thrilled to hear this. I'm just so proud of you, Adam.
01:07:33And as long as you face it, Lena, Sterling, and I will be here for you.
01:07:38I love you, son.
01:07:58One.
01:08:01Two.
01:08:04Three.
01:08:07Come on, Daddy. You can do it.
01:08:09You're doing great. You're almost there.
01:08:12Awesome, Daddy. One more step.
01:08:14You're amazing.
01:08:16Here. I want to try the last step by myself.
01:08:20Okay. I'll be right here.
01:08:34I did it. I'm up. Maybe I did it. I can walk by myself.
01:08:41It's a miracle. Daddy can walk.
01:08:44Yes, buddy. I can walk.
01:08:47I love you both so much.
01:08:49I love you.
01:08:51I love you.
01:09:02Can tennis star Adam really walk again?
01:09:04We're about to find out.
01:09:06After his detrimental injury, if he can walk again, it'll be the comeback of all comebacks in tennis history.
01:09:13That's right. Everyone's waiting on Adam Taylor.
01:09:16I guess sports stars have their own timing. Let's hang tight and see.
01:09:20If Adam recovers, I'll marry him.
01:09:22The tennis superstar's wife must be me.
01:09:25Adam, over here. Look over here. Adam. Adam.
01:09:29It is great to see you all again.
01:09:31I'm happy to inform you that your favorite tennis player is officially back.
01:09:37Mr. Taylor, can you share your recovery experience?
01:09:43It'll inspire many young tennis players.
01:09:45Sure.
01:09:49When I first had my injury, I went through a long period of self-doubt, depression, and struggle.
01:09:57With that diagnosis, I really wasn't sure that I was ever going to walk, let alone play tennis again.
01:10:04But my family, they helped me through.
01:10:08With their support, their encouragement, their love, I finally stood up again.
01:10:14That's a heartwarming and inspiring story. Is your family here today?
01:10:18Yes. She's right here.
01:10:21Yes.
01:10:26I am Adam's fiancee. We're getting married next month. It's an honor.
01:10:32What the hell?
01:10:34This is Lena Cameron, the love of my life and the mother of my son.
01:10:39She's been my rock through all of this, and I love her very much.
01:10:44I love you, too.
01:10:47I'm Adam's fiancee. This bitch is trying to steal my spot as the superstar's wife.
01:10:53No, we're not engaged anymore.
01:10:55Lisa, we never should have been in the first place.
01:10:57You remember when I got hurt and couldn't provide the fame and security that you wanted?
01:11:00You up and walked away?
01:11:02No. No, it's just been a misunderstanding.
01:11:05Stop trying to explain, Lisa. You hurt my son. You hurt Adam.
01:11:09All you care about is fame and money.
01:11:12Shut up. You're so jealous of me that you had to go and seduce my fiancee.
01:11:17Please believe me. I love you. It's been a misunderstanding.
01:11:21There's only one woman for me, and it's Lena, not you.
01:11:26Your family will never approve of you two.
01:11:32Stop!
01:11:34Oh!
01:11:36Silly girl. Trying to drive Lena away to try to get back with Adam.
01:11:40No, it's not like that, Mrs. Taylor. I was just trying to discipline this awful woman.
01:11:46You're not taking her side, are you?
01:11:48Let's set something straight, Lisa. You agreed to call off the engagement.
01:11:53Then the engagement was the right thing for both of us.
01:11:55No, I was just angry. I didn't mean it.
01:11:58No, I was just angry. I didn't mean it.
01:12:00I would never accept a daughter-in-law that abandoned my son in his time of need.
01:12:06Let's just keep it civil, give a little respect, and stop making a scene.
01:12:12What?
01:12:14Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to present Lena as my son Adam's wife.
01:12:22Her kindness and loyalty has truly moved me.
01:12:27Especially since she raised my grandson, Sterling, alone.
01:12:32She deserves this commitment.
01:12:37And I'd like to address one more thing.
01:12:39Lisa, you tried to kidnap Lena, and you deliberately revealed Sterling's identity to the world.
01:12:45And for that, you'll pay for the consequences.
01:12:48You'll pay for the consequences.
01:12:52What?
01:12:53There's been a misunderstanding! I can explain! It was a mistake!
01:12:59Just to make it official.
01:13:05Lena, my love, will you marry me?
01:13:09Yes.
01:13:12Okay.
01:13:15How long have you been carrying this around?
01:13:18Oh, I don't know. Maybe eight years.
01:13:21I knew in college that I wanted to be with you.
01:13:24I know it's a bit small, but I didn't mind millions yet.
01:13:29You can upgrade to what's perfect.
01:13:31You're perfect, Adam Taylor.
01:13:41Oh!
01:13:50Oh, wow! You look breathtakingly beautiful!
01:13:54I'm so happy for you!
01:13:56Mommy, you're the prettiest bride in the world.
01:14:00Thank you, sweetheart.
01:14:02Thank you, Jenny.
01:14:04You and Adam are finally getting married.
01:14:07I'm sure he's been waiting for this day, too.
01:14:10You're going to be happy forever, Lena.
01:14:12Jenny, you're like family to me.
01:14:14Always taking care of Sterling and I.
01:14:16I'm so happy you're here.
01:14:18I can't wait to see Adam's face when he sees you.
01:14:22Let's go.
01:14:23We can't keep your prince tennis waiting.
01:14:26Mommy, let's go!
01:14:29Let's go!
01:14:30Let's go!
01:14:41Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!
01:14:44Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!
01:14:47Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!
01:14:56Lena, I'm so proud to be your husband.
01:15:00I welcome you into my life, making us one.
01:15:04I promise to treat you as my equal partner.
01:15:08The rest of my life.
01:15:11I love you.
01:15:21I love you, too, Adam.
01:15:23And thank you so much for bringing Sterling into my life.
01:15:28He's such a gift.
01:15:30And I'll cherish you both.
01:15:32I know that you will make a great husband.
01:15:35I know that you will make a great husband and a wonderful father.
01:15:40I'm so grateful that you're back in my life.
01:15:43I can't live without you, my tennis prince.
01:15:51Mommy, Daddy, I love you.
01:15:54We love you, too, buddy.
01:16:06Congratulations, Danny!
01:16:09Congratulations, Alan.
01:16:11Let's take a group photo.
01:16:17Looks perfect.
01:16:20One, two, three, smile!
