00:00I can't be your assistant anymore.
00:02Good.
00:04You're about to get a promotion.
00:09I want you to be my wife.
00:11If you marry me, I can give you anything under the sun.
00:15Would you run into a burning building to save someone you love?
00:19It's a question we've all asked ourselves,
00:21but most of us are never given the opportunity to find out.
00:26Ever since the day my father was diagnosed,
00:28I mulled over that question again and again.
00:34How far would I be willing to go to save him?
00:38I wanted nothing more than to help him.
00:41But I felt hopeless.
00:48Until I met him.
00:52Mason Campbell.
00:54Wealthier than the Queen of England and twice as powerful.
00:58Every woman wanted him.
01:02Every man wanted to be him.
01:05I knew he sounded like the kind of person I should stay far, far away from.
01:10And yet, every step I took led me closer to him.
01:14And eventually, right into his arms.
01:18Little did I know, I would soon get the answer to my question.
01:27Would I sacrifice everything to save the person I loved most?
01:32If the board approves, I'll be taking over as head of Campbell International in two weeks.
01:42So I've been educating myself on the operation of our subcontractors.
01:46There's nothing more important than being thorough.
01:49You run one of our largest shipping and distribution centers, Mrs. Miles.
01:55Miss, I'm divorced.
01:57Well, technically separated.
01:59The company isn't registered under your name.
02:02I found that suspicious.
02:03See if you're trying to hide something.
02:09So I did a little digging and...
02:11Turns out you are.
02:13Is that so?
02:15You're using our contract to ship illegal drugs for the omens.
02:18The omens?
02:20Don't play, Tom.
02:22You're working for one of the most dangerous mafia families in the world.
02:26Please.
02:28Mr. Campbell, trust that I'm plenty thorough myself.
02:32And I would know if something like that were happening under my nose.
02:36Just like I know that if anyone would be incriminated with this alleged crime, it would be you.
02:45Do you understand what I'm saying?
02:47Are you threatening me?
02:49No.
02:51I'm promising you.
02:53If you go to the DEA, they'll see your fingerprints all over this operation, not mine.
02:58You have no idea who you're fucking with.
03:01Is that all?
03:03I'm quite busy.
03:07And, uh, fingers crossed, by the way, on the promotion.
03:11I thought I'd be meeting with HR.
03:14Don't worry.
03:15His bark is worse than his bite.
03:16You love him.
03:17Just be yourself.
03:19As long as yourself is agreeable.
03:21And doesn't talk too much.
03:23Definitely don't talk too much.
03:24You will not like that.
03:25Oh.
03:26He's ready for you.
03:28Hi.
03:29What are you waiting for?
03:30Take a seat?
03:31Hi, I'm-
03:32You're going off.
03:34Yes, I know.
03:35I'm-
03:36Mason Campbell.
03:37Of course.
03:38It's nice to meet you.
03:39Here's my resume.
03:40Undergrad at NYU.
03:41Master's of Marketing in UChicago.
03:42Brief stand at a small commercial agency and then a noticeable period of absolutely nothing.
03:47I can explain that.
03:49Excuses aside, you don't have enough experience.
03:50No.
03:51Right.
03:52Is there any luck to you?
03:53You can help me principals.
03:54It's all mine.
03:56How beautiful.
03:58What are you waiting for?
03:59Take a seat.
04:01Hi.
04:02I'm-
04:03You're an Arth.
04:04Yes, I know.
04:06I'm-
04:07Mason Campbell.
04:08Besides, you don't have enough experience to join the marketing team at Gamble International.
04:13But one of your recruiters reached out to me?
04:16There's one position that you are qualified to fill.
04:21I need a personal assistant.
04:27A personal assistant?
04:29I'm planning on a very pivotal transition.
04:33I need someone that I can trust.
04:35Can I trust you, Ms. Hart?
04:38Of course. I would just have to think about it.
04:41Think about working for someone like me, Ms. Hart.
04:44So I can make all your dreams come true.
04:50Okay.
04:52Okay?
04:53Yes.
04:55Yes, sir.
04:56I'll take it.
04:58Very good.
05:01See you on Monday.
05:05Honey, I'm home.
05:10Oh, there she is.
05:14Oh, kiddo.
05:17Do me a favor.
05:19Sit with me for a little.
05:21Guess what I found.
05:23A boyfriend.
05:23No.
05:24A kidney.
05:26Dad, I found a job.
05:29Oh, that's amazing.
05:32What is it?
05:34Mason Campbell's assistant.
05:37Isn't he literally famous for being an asshole?
05:41He runs one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world.
05:44With his connections, who knows?
05:46The dialysis is failing.
05:48You need to accept...
05:50Time to find a donor.
05:53You really think...
05:55You can get Mason Campbell to find me a kidney?
05:59I'm going to try.
06:02I have to try.
06:07Between you and me, I can't believe I got the job.
06:10He didn't seem like he really liked me.
06:12Mason doesn't like anyone.
06:14Okay?
06:15He cares about one thing and one thing only.
06:18Value.
06:18It's how he got to where he is.
06:20What value could I possibly bring him?
06:23Lauren!
06:25I need you in here.
06:27Yes, sorry.
06:28Taking a risk on you.
06:30It's not like me.
06:31Trust others with the details of my life.
06:33Well, people say I'm very reliable.
06:35I'm going to need you to stay late tonight.
06:37There's a lot to do.
06:39I can't tonight.
06:41Excuse me?
06:42I have to give my dad his meds.
06:44If you want this position,
06:48you'll stay here as long as I want.
06:50Whenever I want.
06:53So what's it going to be?
07:10How are you doing?
07:11Good.
07:13Just reorganizing your calendar.
07:17I can't believe you went this long without an assistant.
07:19If you want something done right,
07:21you do it yourself.
07:24Sounds lonely.
07:28That's what this is for.
07:29Okay.
07:41So, how are you?
08:00How are you?
08:00I used to dream about this life.
08:08It's wild, isn't it?
08:10How disappointing it could all be.
08:13But you know, right?
08:16Wasting your life as an assistant to someone else's dream.
08:19I don't see it that way.
08:24I guess it must look different from above.
08:27Well, you have the better view, at least.
08:31We're looking down at the dirt,
08:33and you're looking up at the stars.
08:35Are you attracted to me?
08:44Excuse me?
08:45Answer me.
08:46Are you attracted to me?
08:50No.
08:52Not at all?
08:54No.
08:55Why are you asking me that?
08:57Just to confirm a suspicion.
09:00That?
09:01Are you wanting to lie to me?
09:10Give me a chance to earn your trust.
09:14How?
09:15Your investment dinner.
09:17Tomorrow night.
09:18Let me help you.
09:20Hmm.
09:22Okay, Miss Odd.
09:24Dinner's at 7pm.
09:27Bear my house at 6.45.
09:31Whoa.
09:36What?
09:38Nothing.
09:39Do you have plans after this?
09:42No.
09:43Well,
09:45just for the job you want, I guess.
09:48Anyway,
09:48there's a maintenance guy coming in 20 minutes.
09:51It's a horrible smell coming out of the sink.
09:56You didn't think that...
09:58Oh, no.
09:59No, this is fine, of course.
10:01Okay.
10:01Oh, well, sorry.
10:03Anyway,
10:04make yourself at home
10:05as much as you can.
10:07Anyway,
10:07with that smell.
10:15Nice dress,
10:16by the way.
10:16Oh, God.
10:29Oh, God.
10:29Oh, God.
10:29Oh, God.
10:30Oh, God.
10:30Oh, God.
10:31Oh, God.
10:36Oh, God.
10:37Oh, God.
10:38Oh, God.
10:38Oh, God.
10:38Oh, God.
10:39Oh, God.
10:39Oh, God.
10:39Oh, God.
10:39Oh, God.
10:39Oh, God.
10:39Oh, God.
10:39Oh, God.
10:39Oh, God.
10:39Oh, God.
10:39Oh, God.
10:39Oh, God.
10:39Oh, God.
10:39Oh, God.
10:40Oh, God.
10:41Oh, God.
10:41Oh, God.
10:41Oh, God.
10:41Oh, God.
10:42Oh, God.
10:42Oh, God.
10:43Oh, God.
10:43Oh, God.
11:16I told you I'd do my due diligence.
11:21This is more than just due diligence.
11:23You weren't so nosy.
11:24Nosy, you have photos of me.
11:26You have my personal records.
11:27You have my medical records.
11:28You have my address.
11:29There's only one thing that I couldn't figure out.
11:33Do you have a boyfriend, Miss Hart?
11:34Hey, what is going on?
11:35Tell me right now.
11:36Maybe a lover?
11:37You're a creep.
11:38Yes or no?
11:38No, no, nobody.
11:40It's just me and my dad.
11:41So it's safe to assume that you're fully committed to your work?
11:44I can't be your assistant anymore.
11:45Good.
11:47You're about to get a promotion.
11:52I want you to be my wife.
11:56There are some people on the board that have questions about me taking over.
12:00I have a certain image I need to uphold.
12:03And I need a wife.
12:05Why would I ever marry you?
12:08Money.
12:10As much as you want.
12:12Marry me and I'll set you up for life.
12:14What are you messing with me?
12:15What are you messing with me?
