00:00:00.
00:00:30Hey, this is Richard Allenton. I can't answer the phone right now, so please leave a message.
00:00:48Hey, Grandpa.
00:00:52It's one thing to set me up on a bunch of blind dates with these goody-two-shoe women.
00:00:56But to trick me into thinking I'm coming to a business meeting that's actually a blind date, that's low.
00:01:07Let's hope this one's different.
00:01:10I don't even know what to say to this guy.
00:01:13We don't know how to talk to rich people.
00:01:16Be sexy.
00:01:17Darling, just act better than everyone else in the room.
00:01:21And being sexy is easy.
00:01:24Bite your lip, push up the girls.
00:01:26It works every time.
00:01:28Wait, but what girls?
00:01:29And don't forget, these rich men get bored easily.
00:01:33So challenge them, be bold, and put them on the spot.
00:01:37I don't think I can do this.
00:01:39The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner I pay you for your mother's surgery.
00:01:45It's your call.
00:01:46The sooner you do this year, you don't think you'll see a chain of danach happen.
00:01:48I don't think you'll see a chain of an
00:02:15Are you going to stare at me all night or be a gentleman and get my seat, big boy?
00:02:19Of course.
00:02:27Sorry, I've been set up with many girls before, but none like you.
00:02:34You're so...
00:02:35Rich?
00:02:37Sexy?
00:02:38Frankly, yes.
00:02:41Sorry, what was your name?
00:02:45Valentina Kingsley. And you are?
00:02:48Lane Ellington, CEO of Ellington Incorporated.
00:02:52And this is a successful company? It's not ringing any bells.
00:02:58Waiter?
00:03:00Yes, Mr. Ellington.
00:03:01You still have the Chateau Petrus on the shelf, yes?
00:03:05Yes, of course.
00:03:06If so, we'll have two bottles.
00:03:09It's $60,000 per bottle, sir. You want two?
00:03:13Actually, I'm pretty thirsty. Better bring three.
00:03:19Yeah, yes, of course. Right away, sir.
00:03:25And what do you do, Valentina Kingsley?
00:03:29I invest.
00:03:31In what?
00:03:32In everything.
00:03:36What am I not investing in?
00:03:39Businesses?
00:03:41Charities?
00:03:43I see.
00:03:44And you live in the city?
00:03:47The city.
00:03:49The hills.
00:03:51My yacht.
00:03:54My private island.
00:03:56I'm everywhere, darling.
00:03:58You're so impressive.
00:04:01So unlike the other girls I've seen.
00:04:04Doesn't surprise me.
00:04:06I'm one of a kind, darling.
00:04:12Um, you've got a little, uh...
00:04:26Kurt?
00:04:27Kurt?
00:04:28What's my manager doing here?
00:04:31Blaine!
00:04:34My business center just ended.
00:04:36The presentation for the China branch.
00:04:37Looking good. Amazing.
00:04:39You're the best, Kurt.
00:04:40Well, I just, uh, won't keep you two.
00:04:42Just wanted to say hi.
00:04:42Rose petals for my business center?
00:04:46Ended up being a blind date.
00:04:47Ah, classic.
00:04:49All right, well, you two have fun.
00:04:57I've got to be honest with you.
00:05:01You're so unlike any of the girls I've been with.
00:05:05Would you like to come to my place?
00:05:07I can take this chance to get closer to the AI code.
00:05:10Absolutely, darling.
00:05:12Whoa.
00:05:20Welcome to my home.
00:05:23After you.
00:05:23Oh, my.
00:05:37Oh, my.
00:05:45Do you like what you see?
00:05:51Uh, you're getting there, darling.
00:05:55Nothing like the Calvin Klein model I dated, but...
00:05:58Well, then.
00:06:00Shall we get started?
00:06:04Uh, not so fast.
00:06:07Okay.
00:06:08A little foreplay?
00:06:09I did not think this to her at all.
00:06:12How am I supposed to find the drive when he's trying to suck my face off?
00:06:15Looking for something?
00:06:21Oh, um...
00:06:23Ah.
00:06:26I should have known that was your style.
00:06:30Oh, yes, darling.
00:06:33Ugh, I can't believe people are actually into this.
00:06:35I'm not used to being the one tied up.
00:06:37It's usually the other way around.
00:06:44Valentina?
00:06:46Patience, darling.
00:06:47I'm building the suspense.
00:06:50Ah, I see.
00:06:52Where could it be?
00:06:54Right.
00:06:54And you say guys actually like this?
00:06:58Oh, yes.
00:06:58It's very popular with the manly men in France.
00:07:05How long does it take for something to actually happen?
00:07:12That's...
00:07:12That's new.
00:07:14The painting.
00:07:18Maybe there's a safe behind there.
00:07:19Oh, uh...
00:07:21Sorry, this painting caught my eye.
00:07:24It looks exactly like...
00:07:25The one in my mansion in Sweden.
00:07:29It's where I keep my safe.
00:07:32People actually still hide things behind paintings?
00:07:35Thought that was only in the movies.
00:07:38Uh, no.
00:07:38It's quite popular.
00:07:41Where do you hide your...
00:07:42Luxurious safekeeping?
00:07:45Hmm.
00:07:46In a super...
00:07:47Super, super secret hiding place.
00:07:49Oh, come on.
00:07:53Now, why don't you come over here and...
00:07:55Get this thing started.
00:07:57Oh, uh...
00:07:57Most unfortunate.
00:07:59I'm...
00:07:59I'm getting the utmost important business call.
00:08:02And I must take it.
00:08:04Right now?
00:08:05What?
00:08:06What about me?
00:08:08Valentina!
00:08:12Wait!
00:08:14Untie me!
00:08:19Ew.
00:08:20Really, Blaine?
00:08:22What?
00:08:23You and your models.
00:08:25Last night was not a model.
00:08:29I was actually impressed.
00:08:32Did I hear it right?
00:08:34Blaine actually had a date he liked.
00:08:36It was fantastic.
00:08:38The other girls are so boring.
00:08:41But this one...
00:08:41She's a mystery I can't quite crack.
00:08:45I must see her again.
00:08:46Blaine, these dates aren't about you having sexy adventures.
00:08:50It's about you finding a wife you can settle down with and running the company.
00:08:57Grandfather.
00:08:58Hmm?
00:08:59Listen to him.
00:09:00He's not ready to be the face of Ellington.
00:09:02I am much more qualified.
00:09:03Yeah.
00:09:06I'm done having this conversation with you, dear.
00:09:08No, no, no, no, no.
00:09:11Look, you do great work right where you are.
00:09:13Right?
00:09:14You were meant to be some CEO.
00:09:17No, but Blaine, when learning time?
00:09:21Whatever.
00:09:23Have fun with your little girlfriend, Blaine.
00:09:25I have actual work to attend to.
00:09:32Yeah, yeah, thanks.
00:09:40Hello?
00:09:41How's our plan going, darling?
00:09:45To perfection.
00:09:48Charity has Blaine wrapped around her finger.
00:09:50Won't be long until he slips up.
00:09:52And I can step in and take my throne as Ellington's CEO.
00:09:57Brilliant.
00:09:58It's all coming together perfectly.
00:10:00And the VR tech you're developing.
00:10:02It'll be ready in time when I trade the AI code, right?
00:10:05Oh, yes.
00:10:06It'll be ready.
00:10:07Soon we'll be queens of the tech world.
00:10:09Hmm.
00:10:13I can't stop thinking about this girl from last night.
00:10:21What's he doing here?
00:10:24Speaking of girls, I think I know who'd be perfect as your new assistant.
00:10:29Sorry.
00:10:30I'm fine.
00:10:33Ariel.
00:10:34How does he know my name?
00:10:36You dropped your badge.
00:10:43There you go.
00:10:45Thanks.
00:10:46Thanks.
00:10:51Are you playing hide-and-seek?
00:10:58Is that where you're late?
00:10:59Can I hide next?
00:11:00No, I was dropping my mom off at the hospital.
00:11:03Oh, that was unexpectedly personal.
00:11:05Wait, oh my God, is she okay?
00:11:07Should I bring her a fruit basket?
00:11:08She's just getting some tests done.
00:11:10Oh, thank goodness.
00:11:12Hey, by the way, did you hear?
00:11:14Our new CEO is looking for a personal assistant.
00:11:16Are you going to apply?
00:11:18I'm good where I am.
00:11:19But all the girls are applying.
00:11:20Everyone wants to get close to our boss.
00:11:22You're the best employee in our department, Ariel.
00:11:24I think this position is yours.
00:11:35He's gorgeous.
00:11:38I wouldn't mind looking at that hunk of man all day.
00:11:41Attention, everyone.
00:11:43My name is Blaine, and I am the new CEO.
00:11:47I will try my best to live up to my father, but I ask for patience as I adjust to the new role.
00:11:55And since he is adjusting to this new role, I've decided to assign him a new assistant.
00:12:01Not me, not me, not me.
00:12:03Blaine, meet your new assistant, Ariel.
00:12:06All right, everyone, back to work.
00:12:19You look exactly like...
00:12:23Oh, my God, my cover's blown.
00:12:29You're described.
00:12:31Clean, organized desk, confident composure.
00:12:36There'd be a pay raise, of course.
00:12:38This could get me closer to finding the code.
00:12:42When do I start?
00:12:43Perfect.
00:12:45First thing I need help with is there's this file.
00:12:48Oh, um, gotta take a phone call.
00:12:50Send it to me in an email.
00:12:55Ariel, he wants to meet you again.
00:12:58Really?
00:12:59Also, I got you a second number.
00:13:01Just click the link to connect it, so from now on, you're the one he'll be calling.
00:13:07Great.
00:13:13New number, huh?
00:13:18Hello?
00:13:19Hello, Ariel.
00:13:20This is Dr. Westfall.
00:13:21We just got your mother's results.
00:13:22It's not what we hoped.
00:13:29So we need to move quickly if we want that experimental procedure to be a success.
00:13:34Okay, I understand.
00:13:36I'll come up with the money for it soon.
00:13:39Oh, perfect timing.
00:13:51I just finished dinner.
00:13:53Mom, you should be in bed.
00:13:55Honey, I'm fine.
00:13:57Besides, you've been working all day.
00:13:58You shouldn't have to cook for yourself.
00:14:00Mom, please.
00:14:01Honey, sit down.
00:14:02The doctor called?
00:14:14He says it's gotten worse.
00:14:16Shh, shh, shh.
00:14:17Hush.
00:14:18None of that talk, okay?
00:14:20Mom, eat before your food gets cold.
00:14:23I'll be right back.
00:14:39It's time for the second date, darling.
00:14:41Are you ready?
00:14:44Yeah.
00:14:47Mom, I have to leave for work.
00:14:49I'll make it to go.
00:15:07Well, where am I?
00:15:13Valentina.
00:15:14Blaine.
00:15:16Darling.
00:15:17What is this dreadful place?
00:15:19Do you intend to have me killed?
00:15:21No, not at all.
00:15:22This place is special.
00:15:24Follow me.
00:15:37Honey, Mora.
00:15:39Almost there.
00:15:40Come on.
00:15:40Wow.
00:15:56Wow.
00:16:06Did you look at that view?
00:16:07I bet you bring all your models up here.
00:16:11Just you, actually.
00:16:14I discovered this place after my father died.
00:16:18Your family died?
00:16:20Yeah.
00:16:21I've been thrown into the CEO position, and I'm a bit in over my head, so I never really
00:16:28get a chance to myself, except when I come here.
00:16:31I'm so sorry.
00:16:41My mom is sick.
00:16:46She needs experimental surgery.
00:16:48So now it feels, too.
00:16:55Want to get away?
00:16:56Yeah.
00:16:59I'm used to getting everything, but this is one thing that money can't buy.
00:17:06So sorry about your mom.
00:17:08Thanks.
00:17:09She's all I've got.
00:17:14I don't want to say goodbye to her.
00:17:25Hey!
00:17:26Who's out here?
00:17:31What's happening?
00:17:33Technically, we're not supposed to be up here.
00:17:34What?
00:17:35Ron.
00:17:35What was that?
00:17:54That was fun.
00:17:56Did Calvin Klein take you on any dates that is interest?
00:17:58No.
00:17:59I suppose not.
00:18:00I haven't felt this way in a really long time.
00:18:07I feel like I can be myself around you.
00:18:11I feel the same way.
00:18:13Will you be my girlfriend, Valentina?
00:18:15That's right.
00:18:16I'm supposed to be Valentina.
00:18:18I can't do this to him.
00:18:23But I need to pay for my mom's surgery.
00:18:27I'd love to.
00:18:28Well, well, well.
00:18:35Martina, what are you doing here?
00:18:38I heard you were actually acting like a big boy CEO.
00:18:42Had to see it for myself.
00:18:44Well, that blind date went so well the other night, it got me thinking maybe grandfather was right.
00:18:50Is that so?
00:18:52Blaine's got himself a little girlfriend?
00:18:54That's right.
00:18:55Wow.
00:18:56What's she like?
00:18:57She's funny, mysterious, confident, hardworking, charitable.
00:19:04She's the whole package.
00:19:06Sounds like one that dad actually would have approved of.
00:19:09I'd love to meet her.
00:19:12Oh, sorry, Mr. Ellington.
00:19:14Is this about time?
00:19:15No, not at all.
00:19:16My sister just came to visit.
00:19:18Martina, this is my new assistant, Ariel.
00:19:21Martina, nice to meet you.
00:19:23Well, likewise.
00:19:24Glad to see my brother as someone to make sure this launch goes smoothly.
00:19:28Don't you worry.
00:19:29I got this.
00:19:30Well, after you lost the keys to the Maserati, I'm not so sure that you won't lose this new AI tech that we need.
00:19:36I didn't lose the keys to the Maserati.
00:19:38And don't you worry.
00:19:39I've got the codes right here on this drive, and I'm keeping it safe.
00:19:44Glad to hear you're doing that.
00:19:59I have wasted enough time.
00:20:03Now you know exactly where it is.
00:20:05Get it.
00:20:06Get it.
00:20:06Get it.
00:20:08All right, where's that drive?
00:20:20Are you kidding?
00:20:23There's nothing in here.
00:20:24They're coming in.
00:20:39Crap.
00:20:40How about we celebrate your China contract with a nice glass of whiskey?
00:20:44You don't have to toast my arm.
00:20:46You don't have to toast my arm.
00:20:48No, no, no.
00:20:49No, no, no.
00:20:51Oh, yeah.
00:21:01Sarah, cheers.
00:21:02Don't you guys have that meeting with China right now?
00:21:07Right.
00:21:08Right.
00:21:08Right.
00:21:08After that.
00:21:10Yeah.
00:21:18That was close.
00:21:21Hey, girlfriend.
00:21:27Can I ask you your advice on something?
00:21:28Sure.
00:21:29What's going on?
00:21:30So I have this friend who is having boy problems.
00:21:34Aren't we all?
00:21:35So she has a crush on her boss, and she doesn't know what to do about it because of the whole
00:21:39workplace relationship thing.
00:21:41How did she find out I like Blaine?
00:21:43Wait.
00:21:44I don't like Blaine.
00:21:45But he deserves to know, though, right?
00:21:47You're going to tell him?
00:21:48I mean, I don't know.
00:21:49Because what if I tell Kurt I like him, and he doesn't like me, and then it's so totally
00:21:53awkward, and so he fires me because it's so totally awkward.
00:21:56Wait.
00:21:57You like Kurt?
00:21:58I gotta go.
00:22:00What?
00:22:01Ring, ring.
00:22:01Oh, I'm getting a good call.
00:22:04Ring, ring.
00:22:06Ring, ring.
00:22:07Ring, ring.
00:22:08Ring, ring.
00:22:09Ring, ring.
00:22:09Ring, ring.
00:22:09Ring, ring.
00:22:10Ring, ring.
00:22:10Ring, ring.
00:22:10Ring, ring.
00:22:11Ariel.
00:22:11Yes, Mr. Ellington?
00:22:14I need your personal help.
00:22:15Well, I am your personal assistant.
00:22:28I've never gotten a girl a gift.
00:22:30Wow, really?
00:22:32Um, I mean, yeah.
00:22:34First girlfriend, first gift.
00:22:36Checks out.
00:22:37So, I need your help to figure out which you think a woman would prefer.
00:22:42Oh, my God, I'm gonna be wearing that?
00:22:56Sorry.
00:22:58Uh, your girlfriend's gonna be wearing that?
00:23:01Yeah.
00:23:02It's pretty nice, right?
00:23:03Well, I mean, it's option one.
00:23:06You think she'll like it?
00:23:07Um, well, what's her girlfriend like?
00:23:12What are her tastes?
00:23:15Um, sophisticated, generous, gorgeous.
00:23:20The whole world slows down whenever she walks into a room.
00:23:26I see.
00:23:28So, keep that in mind.
00:23:31Option two.
00:23:32And that's even more revealing than the first one.
00:23:39Yeah.
00:23:40This is big in Europe.
00:23:41Between you and me, I'm rooting for this guy.
00:23:44Mm-hmm.
00:23:45I see.
00:23:46Do you have anything more modest?
00:23:51Hmm.
00:23:51Modest?
00:23:52Yeah.
00:23:53That seems to be the style I've been seeing these days.
00:23:57Uh, with the rich folk.
00:23:59At least.
00:24:00You know, now that you say it, I think I do have something.
00:24:09Aha.
00:24:12What do you think?
00:24:15I think she'd really like that.
00:24:16Can I have a margarita?
00:24:26You can't be serious, darling.
00:24:29She'll have a friend 75 with Konya.
00:24:32Flora, what are you doing here?
00:24:33Making sure you look the part.
00:24:36You want to make the money for your dear mother, don't you?
00:24:39Yes, more than anything.
00:24:40Then you need to keep your eyes on the prize.
00:24:43We need to get our hands on that code fast.
00:24:47Once I do, I can fund your mother's surgery.
00:24:49But until then, we're in this together.
00:24:52Yes?
00:24:54Yeah.
00:24:55Excellent.
00:24:57Now, what's your game plan?
00:24:59Make him even more vulnerable.
00:25:01And get him to tell me where the code is.
00:25:04And how do you suppose you'll do that?
00:25:06Um.
00:25:09Be nice.
00:25:10Your ignorance is both cute and annoying.
00:25:17No.
00:25:19A man like Blaine Ellington is going to become vulnerable from two things.
00:25:24Drinking with him.
00:25:26And going to bed with him.
00:25:29Right.
00:25:31I can do that.
00:25:33I hope so.
00:25:34Because he's coming this way.
00:25:35Get the code soon, honey.
00:25:41For your mother.
00:25:43Okay.
00:25:45Oh.
00:25:47And darling.
00:25:48Have fun.
00:25:51Okay.
00:25:54Valentina.
00:25:57How are you?
00:25:58Wonderful, love.
00:26:00I've been looking forward to this all day.
00:26:02Is that so?
00:26:03Indeed.
00:26:04I was so distracted.
00:26:07It affected my croquet score.
00:26:09Oh, no.
00:26:10Distracted over little old me.
00:26:12Yes.
00:26:13I simply must know everything about you.
00:26:16Well, what would you like to know?
00:26:19Everything.
00:26:20Well, I don't know about everything.
00:26:23It might take some time for me to open up.
00:26:25Well, maybe after a few drinks.
00:26:28Only if you can keep up.
00:26:31See, I don't really start talking until after a lot of drinking.
00:26:35Oh, no.
00:26:36Well, here goes nothing.
00:26:38Nothing.
00:26:47That's really good.
00:26:49What the fuck is there?
00:26:50That's not the thing.
00:26:51That's funny.
00:26:53What the fuck?
00:26:53you know my sister is implying today that i should tell someone where my new ai code is
00:27:05because i forget stuff and are you forgetful i mean yeah can you actually believe i lost the
00:27:16keys to a maserati really yeah it cost me ten thousand dollars just to get them re-keyed
00:27:23which is why i should probably tell someone in case i do forget so maybe i should tell you
00:27:33because you're so awesome and trustworthy well if you'd like go ahead i'll tell you but first
00:27:41i'm gonna hit the men's room
00:27:47this is it all i need to do is ask him where the code is and my mission is over
00:27:56nothing can stop me now ariel except my ex-boyfriend
00:28:03i don't know what you're talking about darling i don't know this ariel no no no no you are

00:28:54how about a kiss for old time's sake
00:28:58you know ariel sometimes i reminisce on our poor days together this isn't happening do you not

00:30:19care to explain this i assume the article does a good job getting into a physical altercation
00:30:36in a bar what are you a child i'm not a child but he started it well i don't care who started it
00:30:45but ellington is a company based in family values
00:30:50i was out with my girlfriend trying to uphold those family values
00:30:54no no no don't don't don't don't don't don't play the girlfriend card okay this the onus is you on this pal
00:30:59you know maybe maybe maybe your sister was right
00:31:03maybe you're too much of a risk even though you say you've settled down

00:47:33Kurt?
00:47:34Sorry.
00:47:35What were we talking about?
00:47:40Hi, Ariel.
00:47:42You all right?
00:47:43Yeah, I'm all right.
00:47:45Um, I actually had an idea about the Cherry Bowl.
00:47:50While we keep reaching out to all of these extravagant venues for their availability,
00:47:55I was thinking we could host it ourselves.
00:47:59Where?
00:48:00I was thinking your house.
00:48:02Uh, I don't really like having people over at my house.
00:48:11Well, if we hosted ourselves, it seems like a more intimate event.
00:48:17And then we could have it as soon as this weekend.
00:48:20Yeah, that makes sense.
00:48:23Okay.
00:48:24Let's do it.
00:48:25Great.
00:48:26I'll send out the invitations.
00:48:27She really knows his company, inside and out.
00:48:34What do you know about Ariel?
00:48:37What do you want to know?
00:48:52Here you go, Mom.
00:48:54I'm sorry I couldn't stay awake for the movie.
00:48:56Hey, I'm just so sleepy.
00:48:58That's okay.
00:48:59We can watch it next weekend.
00:49:02Sweetie, you should be going out with your friends on a Saturday night.
00:49:06Mom, you are my friend.
00:49:08People your age.
00:49:09Who you can be out dancing with.
00:49:12Flirting with boys.
00:49:15I actually kind of have met this one boy.
00:49:18What?
00:49:19What's he like?
00:49:20It's complicated.
00:49:23Honey, you just need to follow your heart.
00:49:26Yeah, he's kind of sweet.
00:49:36Sweetie, I'm fine.
00:49:39I just need some rest.
00:49:40And then after your speech, we're going to dance the night away.
00:50:03I am dreading giving this speech.
00:50:07I guess I'll just picture everyone wearing their underwear and I'll be fine, right?
00:50:10I always thought that was a little pervy, but...
00:50:13I promise.
00:50:16You're going to be amazing.
00:50:16Thank you so much for helping with this charity ball idea.
00:50:23It was genius.
00:50:25I need to make it up to you at some point.
00:50:28I was just doing my job, Mr. Ellington.
00:50:33Well, I should get going.
00:50:35Wait, um...
00:50:37I should probably call Valentina, right?
00:50:38Make sure the dress fits.
00:50:42I'm sure she'd appreciate that.
00:50:44All right.
00:50:45Good night.
00:50:46Hello, darling.
00:51:00I just wanted to make sure the dress fit.
00:51:03It's perfect.
00:51:05I'm looking forward to tomorrow.
00:51:08I can't wait either, darling.
00:51:10Good night.
00:51:11Good night.
00:51:11Ariel, this place looks amazing.
00:51:35Thanks, Kurt.
00:51:36You're looking sharp.
00:51:38Oh, yeah.
00:51:39Well, got to dress to impress, you know?
00:51:42Are you trying to impress anyone?
00:51:44Nah.
00:51:46Listen, random.
00:51:49Does Hannah have a boyfriend?
00:51:52I don't think so.
00:51:54Do you like her?
00:51:56No.
00:51:57No, no, no.
00:51:59No, I'm just trying to make friendly conversation.
00:52:03Yeah.
00:52:05We need more balloons in the dining room.
00:52:09Oh!
00:52:11You're still here.
00:52:13Yeah.
00:52:14Uh, listen.
00:52:16If someone were to ask Hannah to dance,
00:52:21what do you think the chances are that she would say yes?
00:52:25Probably good.
00:52:27Are you going to ask her to dance?
00:52:29No.
00:52:30No.
00:52:30No, no, no, no, no.
00:52:31No, I'm just, um, a fan of wild hypothetical scenarios.
00:52:37That one just sprung to mind.
00:52:40Mm-hmm.
00:52:40Okay.
00:52:43Yep.
00:52:44Um, well, I'm going to go help Blaine practice his speech.
00:52:53So, I'm going to do that right now.
00:52:56I will see you later.
00:52:58All right, see ya.
00:53:01And you must be Ariel.
00:53:02Yes, hi.
00:53:09Hmm.
00:53:10You know, my grandson has spoken very fondly of you.
00:53:13He has?
00:53:14Oh, yes, yes.
00:53:15In fact, he says that, well, this whole thing was your idea.
00:53:21I suppose so.
00:53:22Wonderful.
00:53:25Kind of reminds me of something Blaine's father would have done if he were in Blaine's situation.
00:53:30Wow, that's such an honor.
00:53:33I heard he was a great man.
00:53:35He was a great man.
00:53:37Martina, have you had the pleasure of meeting Blaine's assistant, Ariel?
00:53:43Yes, briefly.
00:53:44She's really helped Blaine become quite an impressive CEO.
00:53:47Yes, yes, she has.
00:53:49In fact, I can, uh, I can see her playing a bigger role than Ellington if she keeps it up.
00:53:55Why wait?
00:53:56She could be a part of something huge tonight.
00:53:59Really?
00:54:00I think so.
00:54:01Don't you, Ariel?
00:54:03Uh, mm-hmm.
00:54:06Amazing.
00:54:07Well, I can't wait.
00:54:13Me either.
00:54:14Me either.
00:54:14Me either.
00:54:15I can't wait.
00:54:16I can't wait.
00:54:16I can't wait.
00:54:17I can't wait.
00:54:18I can't wait.
00:54:18I can't wait.
00:54:19I can't wait.
00:54:19I can't wait.
00:54:19I can't wait.
00:54:19I can't wait.
00:54:20I can't wait.
00:54:20I can't wait.
00:54:21I can't wait.
00:54:21I can't wait.
00:54:22I can't wait.
00:54:22I can't wait.
00:54:23I can't wait.
00:54:23I can't wait.
00:54:24I can't wait.
00:54:24I can't wait.
00:54:25I can't wait.
00:54:25I can't wait.
00:54:26I can't wait.
00:54:27I can't wait.
00:54:27The End
00:54:57Here I am
00:54:59Have you seen Valentina?
00:55:02No, I don't think so
00:55:03About your height, flowy hair, no glasses?
00:55:07Um, no, no, I don't think so
00:55:10In fact
00:55:11What?
00:55:14Nothing, it's ridiculous
00:55:15I better say hi to those guests
00:55:18But if you could find her for me, that would be great
00:55:21I'll get right on that
00:55:23Thank you
00:55:23Hi
00:55:27Just go out there and hype Blaine up
00:55:35So he can deliver his speech
00:55:36Then we're back to finding the drive
00:55:38Okay
00:55:40He can do this
00:55:42Oh, hi Ariel
00:55:45Uh
00:55:48He must be mistaken, love
00:55:50I don't know this Ariel you speak of
00:55:53Yeah, okay
00:55:56Ariel
00:55:57No, seriously
00:55:59My name is Valentina Kingsley
00:56:01And I'm a very wealthy socialite
00:56:03Oh, I get it
00:56:05It's like one of those improv games or something
00:56:08No, no, no, no game
00:56:10My name is...
00:56:12How should I be?
00:56:14Just be yourself
00:56:16I'm the Queen of England
00:56:18You can really tell it's me?
00:56:22Well, yeah
00:56:23But, I mean, I can be very observant
00:56:26Really?
00:56:27Mm-hmm
00:56:28Okay, well, Hannah
00:56:29It's very important that this stays between us
00:56:32Okay
00:56:33Can I ask why?
00:56:36Well, it's really complicated
00:56:38Um
00:56:39But you have to promise me
00:56:40You won't tell anybody about this
00:56:42Can we make it a pinky promise?
00:56:45Yeah, sure
00:56:46Aw
00:56:47Well, good luck with whatever this is
00:56:51Yeah, thanks
00:56:55I'm gonna need it
00:57:08Ah, there you are, darling
00:57:19Ah, Valentina
00:57:20I'm so glad to see you
00:57:22Look at this place
00:57:24I haven't seen a ball as elegant as this
00:57:26Since the King of Spain's birthday
00:57:27I'm glad it lives up to your approval
00:57:29Of course
00:57:30You're doing a speech, I see
00:57:33Well, I'm not much of a speech giver
00:57:35They're gonna eat you up, darling
00:57:37You make me feel so confident
00:57:40I need to be looking at you
00:57:43When I give my speech
00:57:44Of course
00:57:51Okay, perfect
00:57:53Well, I saw a fellow philanthropist outside
00:57:57I must go speak with her
00:57:58Ah, Valentina
00:57:59I was thinking
00:58:00Maybe tonight
00:58:02I could show you
00:58:03The AI code
00:58:05Yes
00:58:07I would love to see what you've been working on
00:58:10Great
00:58:11Where would this be taking place?
00:58:14In the study, or?
00:58:16Upstairs
00:58:16Hidden
00:58:17In a very high-tech safe
00:58:19Ah
00:58:20I see
00:58:21You actually inspired my security team
00:58:25To create a new hiding space for it
00:58:28What the heck did I say?
00:58:31I'll give you hints
00:58:32If you were to look for it
00:58:34If you were to look for it
00:58:34You'd be staring at the most beautiful thing in the world
00:58:37I'll let you get back to socializing
00:58:41Good luck, darling
00:58:44Thank you
00:58:45Excuse me
00:59:09What are you doing in here?
00:59:10Excuse me
00:59:16What are you doing in here?
00:59:19Um
00:59:19And who are you?
00:59:22Oh
00:59:22Um
00:59:23Uh
00:59:24Um
00:59:25I
00:59:26I
00:59:26Um
00:59:26You look lost
00:59:29I am, darling
00:59:31I am lost
00:59:33I've been to a lot of mansions
00:59:35But this one is big
00:59:37Grandfather
00:59:39Yes
00:59:40This is Valentina Kingsley
00:59:41Blaine's new girlfriend
00:59:43Oh, yes, yes
00:59:46From the, uh
00:59:47Front page of the
00:59:48The Times
00:59:48Yes, I've heard a lot about you
00:59:50Hope it was all good things
00:59:52Well
00:59:53I haven't seen him smile quite as much as he does now
00:59:57Since his
00:59:57Father passed
00:59:59And I trust that Blaine is, uh
01:00:02Treating you
01:00:03Respectfully
01:00:05Like a lady
01:00:05He is
01:00:07Well
01:00:08It was a good thing that we were up here to find you
01:00:10If it had been during Blaine's speech
01:00:12No one would know you're here
01:00:15Right
01:00:17Good thing
01:00:18Shall we return to the party?
01:00:22Yes, we shall
01:00:23Very nice meeting you, Miss Kingsley
01:00:25You too, sir
01:00:27You seem quiet
01:00:50Everything's fine, darling
01:00:53Hey, Valentina
01:00:55I have a girl question
01:00:57For you
01:00:58Oh, my God
01:01:03For the love of God
01:01:04You clearly have a crush on Hannah
01:01:06Just ask her to dance
01:01:07You just met me
01:01:09You can already tell
01:01:09Yes
01:01:10You read me like a book
01:01:13I see what Blaine sees in you
01:01:15You're really inquisitive
01:01:17In fact
01:01:18I'll go butter her up for you
01:01:20Would you?
01:01:21That would be great
01:01:22Dude
01:01:24Hannah
01:01:29I need a favor
01:01:30Anything
01:01:30When Blaine is giving his speech
01:01:32I'm gonna step away
01:01:34If anyone asks
01:01:35I'm not feeling well
01:01:36And Ariel
01:01:37Is going to help Valentina
01:01:40Get some medicine
01:01:41Got it
01:01:42Oh
01:01:44And Kurt's gonna ask you to dance
01:01:46Really?
01:01:48Sorry
01:01:48When?
01:01:51Tonight
01:01:51Oh, right
01:01:52It's a ball
01:01:53It's time, brother
01:02:14You ready?
01:02:15As ready as I'll ever be
01:02:16Thank you
01:02:22For coming tonight
01:02:23It means a lot
01:02:25Of course
01:02:26You're gonna be amazing
01:02:29Ladies and gentlemen
01:02:36I wanna thank you all so much
01:02:38For coming out here tonight
01:02:39It is my great honor
01:02:41And privilege
01:02:42To introduce my good friend
01:02:44Your CEO
01:02:45Of Ellington Incorporated
01:02:47Mr. Blaine Ellington
01:02:49Good evening, everyone
01:02:56I want to
01:02:58Before we get started
01:02:59Thank two people
01:03:01Who
01:03:01Without their help
01:03:02None of this would have happened tonight
01:03:04My assistant Ariel
01:03:06And my girlfriend
01:03:07Valentina
01:03:08Not sure where they are right now
01:03:14But I want to thank them
01:03:16For having my back
01:03:18Hi, Anna
01:03:23Oh, hi
01:03:25You haven't seen Valentina around, have you?
01:03:29I wanted to try to find her
01:03:30So she can watch Blaine's speech
01:03:32Valentina is sick
01:03:34And Ariel was helping her get medicine
01:03:37Oh, okay
01:03:38Mom, you look
01:03:42You look really pretty
01:03:44By the way
01:03:44Thanks
01:03:46You look really pretty, too
01:03:49Thank you
01:03:51All right, time to find this code
01:04:12Blaine mentioned something I said
01:04:33What the heck did I say
01:04:36It's a pain experience
01:04:40So
01:04:55Tonight
01:04:56I'm pledging
01:04:57Ten million dollars
01:04:59To help research cures
01:05:00For illnesses and disorders unknown
01:05:03Thank you all for coming
01:05:05I hope to see you on the dance floor
01:05:07I'm sorry, Mom
01:05:29I failed you
01:05:30I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:00I'll give you hints
01:06:02If you were to look for it
01:06:03You'd be staring at the most beautiful thing in the world
01:06:06He wasn't talking about the painting
01:06:11He was talking about me
01:06:15I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:16I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:17I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:18I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:19I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:20I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:21I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:22I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:23I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:24I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:25I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:26I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:27I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:28I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:29I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:30I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:31I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:32I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:33I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:34I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:35I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:36I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:37I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:38I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:39I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:40I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:41I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:42I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:43I'm sorry, Mom
01:06:44Think Ariel.
01:07:14What could the numbers be?
01:07:25It couldn't be our first date, could it?
01:07:44I've got the code.
01:07:56Excellent, darling.
01:07:58I'll give it to you after the ball.
01:08:00Or you could give it to me now.
01:08:04Flora?
01:08:05Flora?
01:08:09What are you doing here?
01:08:10I have a way of being places I'm not supposed to be.
01:08:15Just like you, apparently.
01:08:18The code, darling.
01:08:24The future.
01:08:27In the palm of my hand.
01:08:30I was beginning to think you didn't have it in you.
01:08:33Blake's a good man.
01:08:36You're awful.
01:08:37He's rich, darling.
01:08:39He'll get over it.
01:08:40My mom and her surgery.
01:08:44I've been accused of many things.
01:08:46But I always keep my word.
01:08:49Now, go and celebrate.
01:08:51You deserve it, darling.
01:08:52Valentina.
01:09:06Hi, darling.
01:09:07There you are.
01:09:09How are you feeling?
01:09:24Stronger than the rains in the Amazon, darling.
01:09:28Excellent.
01:09:29Care to dance?
01:09:30Certainly.
01:09:31Well, well, well, well, well, well.
01:09:39Look at the happy couple.
01:09:46How did you get in?
01:09:47Oh, I have my ways.
01:09:48We lied about our names on the guest list.
01:09:52Anyway.
01:09:55I just came here to congratulate you on your little events.
01:10:00You need to leave.
01:10:01Actually, I don't think I do.
01:10:03Because I don't think you know who your little girlfriend is.
01:10:07She's Valentina Kingsley.
01:10:09No, no, no.
01:10:11There is no Valentina Kingsley.
01:10:14What?
01:10:15If only your little assistant had assisted you in researching her.
01:10:21You know, it's funny.
01:10:22I haven't actually seen her all night.
01:10:26Blaine, don't listen to him.
01:10:27What is he talking about?
01:10:30She may have fooled everyone in here.
01:10:35But an ex-boyfriend never forgets a butt.
01:10:50Ariel?
01:10:57This whole time, you've been Valentina?
01:11:07That's right.
01:11:08This whole time, you pretended to care about me.
01:11:12But you're just a liar.
01:11:14And worse.
01:11:16She's poor.
01:11:18Why?
01:11:20Yes, Ariel.
01:11:21But why?
01:11:23I'm so sorry.
01:11:25Ariel.
01:11:26Ariel, wait.
01:11:27How embarrassing.
01:11:32You know, I looked into you.
01:11:36You're in so much debt that it's surprising that you can even rent the Lambo that you drove here.
01:11:41How preposterous.
01:11:43If anybody looks into that, it will be a complete waste of time.
01:11:46Ew.
01:11:48You're poor?
01:11:51Regina!
01:11:54Oh.
01:11:55You're my hero.
01:11:58Thanks.
01:11:59Sometimes I just gotta tell him, you know.
01:12:06Ariel!
01:12:06Ariel!
01:12:07What are you smiling about?
01:12:18I mean, come on.
01:12:20This proves it, right?
01:12:21He's a joke.
01:12:23No, he's your brother, Martina.
01:12:26He's a liability, Richard.
01:12:28And you are giving him the company with the luxury of not having to deal with this shit show
01:12:32because you won't be alive much longer.
01:12:34Oh, I don't do better on that.
01:12:36You know, you got a lot of nerve talking to me like this, kid.
01:12:39You got a lot of nerve letting the ship go down when the lifeboat is right in front of you.
01:12:46I should be running this company.
01:12:49Or is this what success looks like to you?
01:12:56Look, I'm not poor.
01:12:58I don't want to hear it.
01:12:59I do not want to hear it.
01:13:01You lied to me.
01:13:02Not only did you lie to me, but you embarrassed me.
01:13:04No, I'm not.
01:13:05That is fair.
01:13:12Regina!
01:13:12That was a disaster.
01:13:40I just don't understand.
01:13:42Why would she go through all that?
01:13:45I don't know.
01:13:47But, uh, these scandals are exhausting.
01:13:51Yeah.
01:13:52I don't think I'll be dating anytime soon.
01:13:57Right.
01:14:00I got a lot to think about.
01:14:03What do you mean?
01:14:05I mean, we may have to take the company in a complete different direction
01:14:08if we're going to gain back the public's trust.
01:14:11You can't be serious.
01:14:14No.
01:14:18Something better happen soon or it gets much worse.
01:14:22Did she want anything from you?
01:14:27I don't know, Martina.
01:14:29Nothing valuable?
01:14:30Martina, I said I don't...
01:14:32I don't know.
01:14:48I don't know.
01:14:49No.
01:14:51Ariel. Baby. Oh. You look like you had a rough night. It was a disaster, really.
01:15:14I feel awful. Oh. I'm so sorry to hear that, baby.
01:15:19Thanks, Mom. Well, I have something to tell you. Dr. Westfall calls. Are you okay? What's
01:15:27going on? He said that an anonymous donor sent in the funds for me to have my operation.
01:15:36What? I'm scheduled for surgery on Tuesday. Oh, my God. Mom. Mom, I'm so happy. I think
01:15:47this calls for my famous chocolate cake. I agree.
01:15:50I'm sorry.
01:15:53I'm sorry.
01:15:57It's time to celebrate.
01:16:27To the future, darling.
01:16:38Drink.
01:16:38You've worked much too hard not to revel in your victory.
01:16:45There it is.
01:16:47Doesn't our little prize look nice?
01:16:50People walk in and out of my office, having no idea what's in the room with them.
01:16:55Of course, I won't be able to enjoy it too much longer, since my programmer is going to pick it up tonight.
01:17:03I guess I just feel bad.
01:17:06To get what you want in life, sometimes you have to do bold things.
01:17:10Break the rules a little.
01:17:13I guess.
01:17:14Ask any CEO, and they'll agree, including your little boy toy.
01:17:21Blaine would never do anything like that.
01:17:24Well, anyway, speaking of money, let's get that surgery paid for, shall we?
01:17:30What?
01:17:31All I need is your wiring info, and I can send it on over.
01:17:35I trust that the original estimate hasn't changed.
01:17:40I'm sorry, you haven't paid for the surgery yet?
01:17:44No, that's why we're here, isn't it?
01:17:50Arlene!
01:17:50Arlene!
01:17:50All right.
01:18:17One more drink, and we'll start packing up my things.
01:18:20Deal.
01:18:22One more.
01:18:27Anna!
01:18:28Hi, Mr. Ellington.
01:18:29May I come in?
01:18:30Sure.
01:18:30Come on in.
01:18:32Hi, cutie.
01:18:36Care for a drink?
01:18:38Oh, no.
01:18:38I stopped drinking on the job ages ago.
01:18:41Wait, what was that?
01:18:42Mr. Ellington, I have a delivery for you.
01:18:45From who?
01:18:46Ariel.
01:18:50I don't want it.
01:18:55Take it back.
01:18:56She said you might say that, but she said that it was very, very important.
01:19:01How important?
01:19:02I don't know, but she did say that it was something so important that she only trusted me to deliver it, so it must be a big deal.
01:19:11Oh, my God.
01:19:27Oh, my God.
01:19:29What's happening?
01:19:31What's going on?
01:19:32What does this mean?
01:19:32Oh, Flora?
01:19:52Yes, darling.
01:19:53Your appointment had to leave early.
01:19:55I asked if they wanted to schedule, but they said no.
01:19:57I didn't have any appointments scheduled for today.
01:20:01What was the name?
01:20:04Valentina Kingsley?
01:20:05You're rich.
01:20:26You'll get over it, darling.
01:20:29Darling.
01:20:35Oh, what's going on?
01:20:45What does this mean?
01:20:51Thank you for everything.
01:20:58Hannah, did you want to help me with that thing?
01:21:01Yes, yes.
01:21:02Let's do that.
01:21:05Can you please get the hell out of my seat?
01:21:16Lane, there's no easy way for me to say this.
01:21:22But it's time.
01:21:31But it's time.
01:21:35You are going to regret this.
01:21:46I promise you that.
01:21:52Jeez.
01:21:52What did you do?
01:21:54I don't know, girl.
01:21:55But the way she wears that dress, she can step on me any day.
01:22:00You see, I knew you could do it.
01:22:03I knew it.
01:22:05You know, your dad would be so proud of you.
01:22:20Dr. Westfall.
01:22:22Hi, Ariel.
01:22:23Is surgery over?
01:22:24How did it go?
01:22:24Yes, we just finished.
01:22:26There were complications.
01:22:27Complications?
01:22:28Yes, but we were able to work through them, and your mother's going to be just fine.
01:22:34Really?
01:22:35Yeah, really, yes.
01:22:36In fact, they're wheeling her back into her room right now.
01:22:38She's going to need to rest for a few hours, but when she wakes up, she's going to feel better than she has in a long time.
01:22:44I can't thank you enough.
01:22:46I'm happy to help.
01:22:47I'm happy to help.
01:23:17Come in, come in.
01:23:30Welcome.
01:23:36Ariel.
01:23:38Mom, why didn't you leave me out of bed?
01:23:40The doctor said to stay in after surgery.
01:23:42I know, I know, but I saw this cute guy through the window, and I got kind of excited.
01:23:49Are you hungry, thirsty?
01:23:51No, thank you, but thank you.
01:23:53Oh, thank you.
01:23:54Sit down, make yourself comfortable.
01:23:56Mom, do you mind giving us some privacy?
01:24:00Oh, of course.
01:24:02I'll just be right over here.
01:24:05Don't mind me.
01:24:15I'm so, so sorry.
01:24:17I, uh, I understand why you did it.
01:24:23And you gave me the drive back, so there's no need to apologize.
01:24:27Thank you for everything.
01:24:30I don't even know where to start.
01:24:33I'm not looking for an apology.
01:24:38You're not?
01:24:40No.
01:24:41See, I'm still CEO, and I need an assistant.
01:24:46And you're kind of the best in town.
01:24:51I accept.
01:24:51And, uh, I'm still looking for a girlfriend.
01:25:00Mom, if you're open to it, I'd love to apply.
01:25:17I love you, Valentina.
01:25:19I mean, Ariel.
01:25:22That's going to take some getting used to.
01:25:26There aren't any starry rooftop views here.
01:25:29But this is my special place.
01:25:33It's even better.
