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 steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech.
00:01:51The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech.
00:01:53The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech.
00:01:54The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech.
00:01:56The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech.
00:01:57The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech.
00:01:58Are you going to stare at me all night or be a gentleman and get my seat, big boy?
00:02:19Of course.
00:02:20Sorry, I've been set up with many girls before, but none like you.
00:02:34You're so...
00:02:35Rich?
00:02:36Sexy?
00:02:38Frankly, yes.
00:02:41Sorry, what was her name?
00:02:45Valentina Kingsley.
00:02:47And you are?
00:02:47Lane Ellington, CEO of Ellington Incorporated.
00:02:52And this is a successful company?
00:02:55It'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.
00:03:12You want two?
00:03:14Actually, I'm pretty thirsty.
00:03:16Better bring three.
00:03:19Yeah, yes, of course, right away, sir.
00:03:26And what do you do, Valentina Kingsley?
00:03:29I invest.
00:03:31In what?
00:03:33In everything.
00:03:36What am I not investing in?
00:03:38Businesses, charities.
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.
00:04:04Hmm.
00:04:05Doesn't surprise me.
00:04:06I'm one of a kind, darling.
00:04:12Um.
00:04:13You've got a little, uh...
00:04:18Pinky.
00:04:23Kurt?
00:04:27Kurt?
00:04:28What's my manager doing here?
00:04:31Blaine!
00:04:34My business dinner just ended.
00:04:36The presentation for the China branch.
00:04:37Looking good.
00:04:38Amazing.
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.
00:04:44Rose petals for a business dinner?
00:04:46Ended up being a blind date.
00:04:47Ah, classic.
00:04:48All right, well, you two have fun.
00:04:58I'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.
00:05:18Whoa.
00:05:18Welcome to my home.
00:05:23After you.
00:05:38Oh, my.
00:05:39Oh, my.
00:05:39You like what you see?
00:05:53You're getting there, darling.
00:05:55Nothing like the Calvin Klein model I dated, but...
00:05:58Well, then, shall we get started?
00:06:01Uh, 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?
00:06:15I should have known that.
00:06:16I should have known that was your style.
00:06:28Oh, yes, darling.
00:06:31I 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?
00:06:44Patience, 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.
00:07:02How long does it take for something to actually happen?
00:07:12That's...
00:07:12That's new.
00:07:16The 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 the one in my mansion in Sweden.
00:07:29It's where I keep my safe.
00:07:31Huh.
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 luxurious safekeepings?
00:07:45In a super, super, super secret hiding place.
00:07:49Oh, come on.
00:07:53Now, why don't you come over here and get this thing started?
00:07:57Oh, uh...
00:07:57Most unfortunate.
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!
00:08:11Wait!
00:08:13Untie me!
00:08:19Ew.
00:08:20Really, Blaine?
00:08:22What?
00:08:22But you and your models.
00:08:26Last night was not a model.
00:08:29I was actually impressed.
00:08:31Did 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.
00:08:58Mm-hmm?
00:08:59Listen to him.
00:09:00He's not ready to be the face of Ellington.
00:09:02I am much more qualified.
00:09:03Oh, yeah.
00:09:04I'm done having this conversation with you, dear.
00:09:08No, no, no, no.
00:09:11Look, you do great.
00:09:11You were right where you are.
00:09:13Right?
00:09:14Yeah, you 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.
00:09:26I have actual work to attend to.
00:09:32Yeah, yeah.
00:09:33Thanks.
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.
00:10:09I can't stop thinking about this girl from last night.
00:10:22What's he doing here?
00:10:24Speaking of girls, I think I know who'd be perfect as your new assistant.
00:10:29Sorry.
00:10:29I'm fine.
00:10:30I'm fine.
00:10:33Ariel.
00:10:34How does he know my name?
00:10:36You dropped your badge.
00:10:36Here you go.
00:10:46Thanks.
00:10:53She's amazing.
00:10:57Are you playing hide-and-seek?
00:10:58Is that where you were late?
00:10:59Can I hide next?
00:11:00No, I was dropping your 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.
00:11:17Are 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.
00:11:37I wouldn't mind looking at that hunk of man all day.
00:11:42Attention, 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,
00:11:51but I ask for patience as I adjust to the new role.
00:11:54And since he is adjusting to this new role,
00:11:57I've decided to assign him a new assistant.
00:12:01Not me, not me, not me.
00:12:03Blaine, meet your new assistant, Ariel.
00:12:11All right, everyone, back to work.
00:12:13You look exactly like...
00:12:23Oh, my God, my cover's blown.
00:12:29Kurt described.
00:12:31Clean, organized desk, confident composure.
00:12:36There'd be a pay raise, of course.
00:12:37This could get me closer to finding the code.
00:12:42When do I start?
00:12:44Perfect.
00:12:44Uh, first thing I need help with is there's this file.
00:12:48Oh, uh, 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.
00:13:02Just click the link to connect it,
00:13:03so from now on,
00:13:04you're the one he'll be calling.
00:13:07Great.
00:13:12Hmm.
00:13:13New number, huh?
00:13:18Hello?
00:13:18Hello, Ariel.
00:13:20This is Dr. Westphal.
00:13:21We just got your mother's results.
00:13:23It's not what we hoped.
00:13:29So we need to move quickly
00:13:30if we want that experimental procedure
00:13:32to be a success.
00:13:34Okay, I understand.

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.

00:45:21Excellent, darling.
00:45:23Excellent.
00:45:45Max, what are you doing here?
00:45:50What the hell are you doing here, Ariel?
00:45:52Or should I say, Valentina Kingsley?
00:45:56You wouldn't understand.
00:45:57Oh, I understand.
00:45:59You're acting like somebody else to take advantage of your rich boss, hmm?
00:46:03No, I'm not.
00:46:04You know, I have the responsibility to tell your little hotshot boyfriend who you really are.
00:46:11It's only the right thing to do.
00:46:14Please don't.
00:46:16You don't know what I'm doing.
00:46:17Oh, you lose your job?
00:46:19Your reputation?
00:46:21Oh, once word gets out, nobody will want you?
00:46:25What do you want, Max?
00:46:26I just want a little, an arrangement.
00:46:31I'd rather not.
00:46:32Ariel, you really do not want to make me angry.
00:46:37Did you just come here to hurt me?
00:46:40Oh, sweetheart, I don't want to hurt you.
00:46:42I want to destroy you in 24 hours to end this charade on your own.
00:46:52If by tomorrow I see little Valentina Kingsley running around town,
00:46:57I'll do it for you.
00:47:00You seem extra happy today.
00:47:16I feel like Valentina and I, we got on a whole nother level last night.
00:47:22Wow, that's awesome, man.
00:47:24I'm so happy for you.
00:47:26Hi, Mr. Ellington.
00:47:27Hi, Kurt.
00:47:28Hi, Anna.
00:47:29Yeah, I feel like she's the one, Kurt.
00:47:33Kurt?
00:47:35Sorry, what were we talking about?
00:47:36Hi, 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?
00:47:59I was thinking your house.
00:48:06Uh, I don't really like having people over at my house.
00:48:11Well, if we host it 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, let'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?
00:48:38What do you want to know?
00:48:52Here you go, Mom.
00:48:54I'm sorry I couldn't stay awake for the movie.
00:48:56I'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.
00:49:10Who 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?
00:49:21That's complicated.
00:49:23Honey, you just need to follow your heart.
00:49:25Yeah, 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, you're going to be amazing.
00:50:19Thank you so much for helping with this charity ball idea.
00:50:24It was genius.
00:50:24I 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.
00:50:36Um...
00:50:36I should probably call Valentina, right?
00:50:39Make 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.
00:51:04It's perfect.
00:51:05I'm looking forward to tomorrow.
00:51:08I can't wait either, darling.
00:51:11Good night.
00:51:11Good night.
00:51:11Good night.
00:51:12Good night.
00:51:13Good night.
00:51:16Good night.
00:51:32Ariel, this place looks amazing.
00:51:35Thanks, Kurt.
00:51:37You'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?
00:51:45Nah.
00:51:46Listen, random.
00:51:49Does Hannah have a boyfriend?
00:51:52I don't think so.
00:51:55Do you like her?
00:51:56No.
00:51:57No.
00:51:58No.
00:51:58No.
00:51:59No.
00:51:59I'm just trying to make friendly conversation.
00:52:03Yeah.
00:52:05We need more balloons in the dining room.
00:52:10Oh.
00:52:10You're still here.
00:52:12You're still here.
00:52:13Yeah.
00:52:14Uh, listen.
00:52:16If someone were to ask Hannah to dance, what do you think the chances are that she would
00:52:23say yes?
00:52:24Probably good.
00:52:26Are 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.
00:52:38That one just sprung to mind.
00:52:40Mm-hmm.
00:52:40Okay.
00:52:41Okay.
00:52:43Yeah.
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.
00:52:59See ya.
00:53:01And you must be Ariel.
00:53:06Yes.
00:53:07Hi.
00:53:09Hmm.
00:53:10You know, my grandson has spoken very fondly of you.
00:53:14He has?
00:53:15Oh, yes, yes.
00:53:15In fact, he says that, well, this whole thing was your idea.
00:53:21I suppose so.
00:53:23Wonderful.
00:53:25Kind of reminds me of something Blaine's father would have done if he were in Blaine's situation.
00:53:31Wow.
00:53:31That's such an honor.
00:53:33I heard he was a great man.
00:53:35He was a great man.
00:53:38Martina.
00:53:39Have 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, she has.
00:53:49In fact, I can, uh, I can see her.
00:53:52Playing 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, uh-huh.
00:54:06Amazing.
00:54:07Well, I can't wait.
00:54:10Me either.
00:54:14Me either.
00:54:15Oh, my God.
00:54:45Oh, my God.
00:54:50Jesus.
00:54:53Ariel.
00:54:55Lane.
00:54:56There you are. I've been looking everywhere for you.
00:54:58Here I am.
00:54:59Have you seen Valentina?
00:55:02No, I don't think so.
00:55:04About your height, flowy hair, no glasses?
00:55:07Um, no. No, I don't think so.
00:55:11In fact...
00:55:12What?
00:55:14Nothing.
00:55:15It's ridiculous.
00:55:17I better say hi to those guests, but if you could find her for me, that would be great.
00:55:22I'll get right on that.
00:55:24Bye.
00:55:25Bye.
00:55:33Just go out there and hype Lane up so he can deliver his speech.
00:55:37Then we're back to finding the drive.
00:55:38Okay.
00:55:41You can do this.
00:55:44Oh, hi, Ariel.
00:55:48Uh, he must be mistaken, love.
00:55:51I don't know this Ariel to speak of.
00:55:55Yeah, okay.
00:55:56Ariel.
00:55:58No, seriously.
00:56:00My name is Valentina Kingsley, and I'm a very wealthy socialite.
00:56:04Oh, I get it.
00:56:05It's like one of those improv games or something.
00:56:09No, no, no, no game.
00:56:11My name is...
00:56:12How should I be?
00:56:14Just be yourself.
00:56:17I'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.
00:56:27Really?
00:56:28Mm-hmm.
00:56:29Okay, well, Hannah, it's very important that this stays between us.
00:56:33Okay.
00:56:34Can I ask why?
00:56:36Well, it's really complicated.
00:56:38Um, but you have to promise me you won't tell anybody about this.
00:56:43Can we make it a pinky promise?
00:56:45Yeah, sure.
00:56:47Aw.
00:56:48Well, good luck with whatever this is.
00:56:54Yeah, thanks.
00:56:56I'm gonna need it.
00:56:58Ah, there you are, darling.
00:57:20Valentina, I'm so glad to see you.
00:57:23Look at this place.
00:57:24I haven't seen a ball as elegant as this since the King of Spain's birthday.
00:57:28I'm glad it lives up to your approval.
00:57:30Of course.
00:57:31You're doing a speech, I see.
00:57:33Well, I'm not much of a speech giver.
00:57:36They're gonna eat you up, darling.
00:57:39You make me feel so confident.
00:57:41I need to be looking at you when I give my speech.
00:57:50Of course.
00:57:53Okay, perfect.
00:57:53Well, I saw a fellow philanthropist outside.
00:57:57I must go speak with her.
00:57:58Uh, Valentina.
00:58:00I was thinking maybe tonight I could show you the AI code.
00:58:07Yes.
00:58:08I would love to see what you've been working on.
00:58:11Great.
00:58:12Where would this be taking place?
00:58:14In the study or?
00:58:16Upstairs.
00:58:17Hidden in a very high-tech safe.
00:58:20Ah, I see.
00:58:22You actually inspired my security team to create a new hiding space for it.
00:58:29What the heck did I say?
00:58:31I'll give you hints.
00:58:33If you were to look for it, you'd be staring at the most beautiful thing in the world.
00:58:39I'll let you get back to socializing.
00:58:43Good luck, darling.
00:58:49Excuse me.
00:59:09What are you doing in here?
00:59:16Excuse me.
00:59:17What are you doing in here?
00:59:18Um...
00:59:20And who are you?
00:59:22Oh, um, uh...
00:59:24Um, I, I, um...
00:59:27You look lost.
00:59:30I am, darling.
00:59:32I am lost.
00:59:33I've been to a lot of mansions, but this one is big.
00:59:39Grandfather?
00:59:40Yes?
00:59:40This is Valentina Kingsley.
00:59:42Blaine's new girlfriend.
00:59:43Oh, yes, yes.
00:59:46From the, uh, front page of the, the Times.
00:59:49Yes, I've heard a lot about you.
00:59:51I hope it was all good things.
00:59:53Well, I haven't seen him smile quite as much as he does now since his father passed.
00:59:59And I trust that Blaine is, uh, treating you respectfully, like a lady.
01:00:06She is.
01:00:08Well, it was a good thing that we were up here to find you.
01:00:11If it had been during Blaine's speech, no one would know you're here.
01:00:16Right.
01:00:17Good thing.
01:00:18Shall we return to the party?
01:00:22Yes, we shall.
01:00:24Very nice meeting you, Miss Kingsley.
01:00:27You too, sir.
01:00:27Mm-hmm.
01:00:29Mm-hmm.
01:00:29Mm-hmm.
01:00:31Mm-hmm.
01:00:33Mm-hmm.
01:00:35Mm-hmm.
01:00:37Mm-hmm.
01:00:39Mm-hmm.
01:00:40Mm-hmm.
01:00:41Mm-hmm.
01:00:42Mm-hmm.
01:00:43Mm-hmm.
01:00:44Mm-hmm.
01:00:45Mm-hmm.
01:00:46Mm-hmm.
01:00:47Mm-hmm.
01:00:48You seem quiet.
01:00:51Is everything all right?
01:00:52Everything's fine, darling.
01:00:54Hey, Valentina.
01:00:56I have a girl question for you.
01:01:02Oh, 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.
01:01:08You just met me.
01:01:09You can already tell.
01:01:10Yes.
01:01:12You read me like a book.
01:01:14I see what Blaine sees in you.
01:01:16You're really inquisitive.
01:01:17In fact, I'll go butter her up for you.
01:01:20Would you?
01:01:21That would be great.
01:01:24Dude.
01:01:28Hannah, I need a favor.
01:01:30Anything.
01:01:31When Blaine is giving his speech, I'm going to step away.
01:01:34If anyone asks, I'm not feeling well.
01:01:37And Ariel is going to help Valentina get some medicine.
01:01:41Got it.
01:01:44Oh, and Kurt's going to ask you to dance.
01:01:47Really?
01:01:48Sorry.
01:01:50When?
01:01:51Tonight.
01:01:52Oh, right.
01:01:53It's a ball.
01:01:53It's time, brother.
01:02:15You ready?
01:02:15As ready as I'll ever be.
01:02:16Thank you for coming tonight.
01:02:24It means a lot.
01:02:26Of course.
01:02:27You're going to be amazing.
01:02:29Ladies and gentlemen, I want to thank you all so much for coming out here tonight.
01:02:40It is my great honor and privilege to introduce my good friend, your CEO of Ellington Incorporated,
01:02:48Mr. Blaine Ellington.
01:02:49Good evening, everyone.
01:02:57I want to, before we get started, thank two people who, without their help, none of this would have happened tonight.
01:03:05My assistant, Ariel, and my girlfriend, Valentina.
01:03:12Not sure where they are right now, but I want to thank them for having my back.
01:03:19Hi, Anna.
01:03:24Oh, hi.
01:03:26You haven't seen Valentina around, have you?
01:03:29I wanted to try to find her so she can watch Blaine's speech.
01:03:33Valentina is sick, and Ariel was helping her get medicine.
01:03:38Oh, okay.
01:03:41Um, you look, you look really pretty, by the way.
01:03:45Thanks.
01:03:47You look really pretty, too.
01:04:11Alright, time to find this code.
01:04:12Blaine mentioned something I said?
01:04:34What the heck did I say?
01:04:39This painting's good.
01:04:40So, tonight, I'm pledging $10 million to help research cures for illnesses and disorders unknown.
01:05:03Blaine, thank you all for coming.
01:05:04Thank you all for coming.
01:05:05I hope to see you on the dance floor.
01:05:07Oh, my God.
01:05:09Go.
01:05:16I'm sorry, Mom.
01:05:30Bill too.
01:05:30I don't know.
01:06:01I'll give you hints.
01:06:02If you were to look for it,
01:06:04you'd be staring at the most beautiful thing in the world.
01:06:10She wasn't talking about the painting.
01:06:14She was talking about me.
01:06:30She was talking about me.
01:07:00She was talking about me.
01:07:06Okay.
01:07:11Think, Ariel.
01:07:12What could the numbers be?
01:07:25It couldn't be our first date, could it?
01:07:28I've got the code.
01:07:57Excellent, darling.
01:07:59I'll give it to you after the ball.
01:08:00Or you could give it to me now.
01:08:05Flora?
01:08:05What are you doing here?
01:08:12I have a way of being places I'm not supposed to be.
01:08:15Just like you, apparently.
01:08:16The code, darling.
01:08:24The future.
01:08:27In the palm of my hand.
01:08:29I was beginning to think you didn't have it in you.
01:08:34Lane's a good man.
01:08:36You're awful.
01:08:38He's rich, darling.
01:08:39He'll get over it.
01:08:41My mom?
01:08:42And her surgery?
01:08:43I've been accused of many things.
01:08:47But I always keep my word.
01:08:50Now, go and celebrate.
01:08:51You deserve it, darling.
01:08:52Balancina.
01:09:00Hi, darling.
01:09:05Balancina.
01:09:20Hi, darling.
01:09:21There you are.
01:09:23How are you feeling?
01:09:25Stronger than the rains in the Amazon, darling.
01:09:28Excellent.
01:09:29Care to dance?
01:09:30Certainly.
01:09:31Well, well, well, well.
01:09:39Look at the happy couple.
01:09:46How did you get in?
01:09:47Oh, I have my ways.
01:09:49We lied about our names on the guest list.
01:09:52Anyway, I just came here to congratulate you on your little events.
01:09:59You need to leave.
01:10:02Actually, 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.
01:10:15What?
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.
01:10:26Lane, don't listen to him.
01:10:28What is he talking about?
01:10:29Yes, she may have fooled everyone in here.
01:10:35But an ex-boyfriend never forgets a butt.
01:10:38Hey.
01:10:50Ariel?
01:10:51Ariel?
01:10:51Ariel?
01:10:51Ariel?
01:10:51Ariel?
01:10:51Ariel?
01:10:53Ariel?
01:10:55Ariel?
01:10:55Ariel?
01:10:55Ariel?
01:10:59This whole time, you've been Valentina?
01:11:06That's right.
01:11:08This whole time, you pretended to care about me.
01:11:12But you're just a liar.
01:11:15And worse, she's poor.
01:11:18Why?
01:11:19Yes, Ariel.
01:11:20Yes, Ariel.
01:11:21But why?
01:11:24I'm so sorry.
01:11:25Ariel.
01:11:26Ariel, wait.
01:11:29How embarrassing.
01:11:30You know, I looked into you.
01:11:35You're in so much debt that it's surprising that you can even rent the Lambo that you drove
01:11:41here.
01:11:41How preposterous.
01:11:43If anybody looks into that, it will be a complete waste of time.
01:11:47Ew.
01:11:47You're poor?
01:11:48You're poor?
01:11:49You're poor?
01:11:49You're poor?
01:11:49You're poor?
01:11:49You're poor?
01:11:49You're poor?
01:11:50You're poor?
01:11:51Regina?
01:11:52Regina?
01:11:55Oh.
01:11:57You're my hero.
01:11:59Thanks.
01:12:00Sometimes I've got to just, I've got to tell them, you know.
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.
01:12:24No, 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
01:12:32show because you won't be alive much longer.
01:12:34Oh, well, don't bet on that.
01:12:36You know, you've got a lot of nerve talking to me like this, kid.
01:12:41You've got a lot of nerve letting the ship go down when the lifeboat is right in front
01:12:45of 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 there.
01:13:05That is fair.
01:13:06Virginia!
01:13:09Oh!
01:13:12Regina!
01:13:17Oh!
01:13:22Oh!
01:13:23Oh!
01:13:32That was a disaster
01:13:37I just don't understand
01:13:42Why would she go through all that?
01:13:45I don't know
01:13:46But
01:13:47These scandals are exhausting
01:13:50Yeah
01:13:51I don't think I'll be dating anytime soon
01:13:58Right
01:13:58I got a lot to think about
01:14:02What do you mean?
01:14:05I mean
01:14:06We may have to take the company in a complete different direction
01:14:09For it to gain back the public's trust
01:14:11You can't be serious
01:14:14Something better happen sooner
01:14:20It gets much worse
01:14:24Did she want anything from you?
01:14:27I don't know, Martina
01:14:28Nothing valuable?
01:14:30Martina, I said I don't
01:14:32No!
01:14:41No!
01:14:42No!
01:14:42No!
01:14:43Ariel, baby, oh, you look like you had a rough night.
01:15:10It was a disaster, really. I feel awful.
01:15:16Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that, baby.
01:15:20Thanks, Mom.
01:15:22Well, I have something to tell you. Dr. Westfall calls.
01:15:27Are you okay? What's going on?
01:15:29He said that an anonymous donor sent in the funds for me to have my operation.
01:15:36What?
01:15:37I'm scheduled for surgery on Tuesday.
01:15:39Oh, my God.
01:15:40Mom.
01:15:43Mom, I'm so happy.
01:15:46I think this calls for my famous chocolate cake.
01:15:49I agree.
01:15:51I agree.
01:16:09It's time to celebrate.
01:16:26To the future, darling.
01:16:38Drink.
01:16:39You've worked much too hard not to revel in your victory.
01:16:41There 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.
01:17:12I guess.
01:17:15Ask any CEO and they'll agree, including your little boy toy.
01:17:22Blaine would never do anything like that.
01:17:24Well, anyway, speaking of money, let's get that surgery paid for, shall we?
01:17:31What?
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?
01:17:50Marlene?
01:18:01All right.
01:18:17One more drink and we'll start packing up my things.
01:18:21Deal.
01:18:22One more.
01:18:28Anna.
01:18:29Hi, Mr. Wellington.
01:18:30May I come in?
01:18:30Sure.
01:18:31Come on in.
01:18:32Hi, cutie.
01:18:37Care for a drink?
01:18:38Oh, no.
01:18:39I stopped drinking on the job ages ago.
01:18:41Wait, what was that?
01:18:42Mr. Wellington, I have a delivery for you.
01:18:45From who?
01:18:46Ariel.
01:18:52From who?
01:18:53Ariel.
01:18:54I don't want it.
01:18:56Take it back.
01:18:56She said you might say that,
01:18:58but she said that it was very, very important.
01:19:02How important?
01:19:04I don't know, but she did say that it was something so important
01:19:08that she only trusted me to deliver it,
01:19:10so it must be a big deal.
01:19:11Oh, my God.
01:19:25Oh, my God.
01:19:28Oh, my God.
01:19:29Ew!
01:19:30What's happening?
01:19:31What's going on?
01:19:32What does this mean?
01:19:33Oh, 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.
01:19:58I didn't have any appointments scheduled for today.
01:20:01What was the name?
01:20:05Valentina Kingsley?
01:20:06You're rich.
01:20:27You'll get over it, darling.
01:20:29Darling.
01:20:29Darling.
01:20:29Darling.
01:20:36What'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.
01:21:06Can 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.
01:21:32But it's time.
01:21:36You are going to regret this.
01:21:46I promise you that.
01:21:52Jeez.
01:21:53What 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.
01:22:00Let me see.
01:22:02I knew you could do it.
01:22:03I knew it.
01:22:05You know, your dad would be so proud of you.
01:22:21Dr. 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.
01:22:28Complications?
01:22:29Yes, 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.
01:22:39She'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.
01:22:45I 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.
01:23:31Welcome.
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?
01:23:52No, thank you, but thank you.
01:23:53Oh, thank you.
01:23:55Sit down, make yourself comfortable.
01:23:57Mom, 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.
01:24:16I'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.
01:24:39You're not?
01:24:40No.
01:24:42See, I'm still CEO, and I need an assistant.
01:24:46And you're kind of the best in town.
01:24:51I accept.
01:24:52And, uh, I'm still looking for a girlfriend.
01:25:00Mom, if you're open to it, I'd love to apply.
01:25:18I love you, Valentina.
01:25:19I mean, Ariel.
01:25:23That's gonna take some good gifts, too.
01:25:26There aren't any starry rooftop views here.
01:25:29But this is my special place.
01:25:33It's even better.
