00:00:00They say the most primal human things are fighting, and well, I was about to learn both.
00:00:16Every girl wants to find her prince charming, but unfortunately we don't exactly live in a
00:00:21fairytale world. There's no such thing as happily ever after. Where is the duck for table two?
00:00:28Table two ordered something special, chef.
00:00:33No, table two ordered the special and the special is the duck. What is this?
00:00:38Nothing.
00:00:39Yes, exactly. This is nothing now. The duck.
00:00:43Just do what your boss says, Lily. You can't afford to lose another job.
00:00:47How can you pay for mom's operation when you're homeless?
00:00:50Table two, the duck.
00:00:52So I'm thinking about adopting a dog. You know, like the little tiny dogs that can fit in your
00:01:00handbag. They're so cute. So anyway, once your inheritance is secure, the Morrison deal is all
00:01:06in the bag. But what is this mystery clause you won't tell us about, Jack?
00:01:13Jack. Jack. Hello?
00:01:16Yeah, the, the, the, the, the, the dog.
00:01:21Hi.
00:01:24Hi.
00:01:29You ordered the special?
00:01:33Actually, I, I ordered the.
00:01:34Trust me.
00:01:35Who is that girl?
00:01:37Something about her.
00:01:40It's like I've been waiting for her my whole life.
00:01:41Wow. That was presumptuous.
00:01:43The waitress, not bringing you what I ordered. Don't tell me you're actually impressed with
00:01:48that little slut, Jack.
00:01:49It looks good.
00:01:51The food or the waitress?
00:02:01And what do you think you are doing?
00:02:04I'm making something from this century.
00:02:06You know what? That's it. I've had enough. You are fired. Get out of here.
00:02:09Not this again.
00:02:10What did you say?
00:02:14I am serious this time. You are fired. You get out of here.
00:02:17What?
00:02:18You take this. You give up your act. You get out.
00:02:21No, please, sir. It won't happen again.
00:02:23No, it's no more Mr. Nice Guy this time. You get out. You leave.
00:02:26Please.
00:02:26No, no.
00:02:27Go ahead. Full call.
00:02:28Man.
00:02:29Putain.
00:02:32I've taken the trash out, I see.
00:02:36Yeah, the, the, the trash.
00:02:38Asshole.
00:02:45Oh, my God.
00:03:02Don't scream. Don't scream, babe.
00:03:05Or do scream for me.
00:03:07Please.
00:03:07Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:03:12Hey.
00:03:12No.
00:03:16No.
00:03:17No.
00:03:20Hey, wait.
00:03:21Not now, Warren.
00:03:47Jack, my man.
00:03:48Hupasso.
00:03:49So I'm a little disappointed that you're making me ask again.
00:03:52When are you going to unlock the inheritance, bro?
00:03:54The deal of a lifetime isn't going to wait forever.
00:03:57Yeah.
00:03:58Yeah, come on, are you even listening?
00:04:01I mean, if we don't move on this Morrison thing, someone else will.
00:04:04And I mean, I'm not going to be that guy.
00:04:06Are you going to be that guy?
00:04:07Um, how can I help my mom when I can't even afford something to eat?
00:04:15Maybe next time.
00:04:16Oh, thanks.
00:04:20Call me.
00:04:21I'll call you back.
00:04:22Jack, come on.
00:04:23He got locked on me.
00:04:24Jack's never done that before.
00:04:26If he doesn't lock away this inheritance deal, then the Morrison deal's over.
00:04:32We're over.
00:04:34Don't you worry your wrinkled little forehead, Warren.
00:04:36I've got just the plan.
00:04:45Just when I think I've found her, she's gone again.
00:04:48How am I going to find her again?
00:05:04You could always marry Vivian Chase, sir.
00:05:06Are you out of your mind?
00:05:07Vivian and I are done.
00:05:09Never again.
00:05:10She's just business now.
00:05:13Very well, sir.
00:05:15Although it is your inheritance at stake, sir.
00:05:18I'll find another way.
00:05:19I'm afraid not.
00:05:21But the terms of your parents' will are quite specific.
00:05:24You must be married before your 32nd birthday for precisely 365 days.
00:05:30I know, I know.
00:05:30And with that fateful birthday fast approaching, there's little time.
00:05:35The inheritance must be claimed within the month.
00:05:38And most crucially of all, you must not tell a soul about the marriage clause.
00:05:44Especially your wife.
00:05:46Or I lose everything.
00:05:48Everything.
00:05:48Don't complain about things.
00:06:00I don't complain.
00:06:01I don't.
00:06:02All I'm saying is, you're going to have to start living in the real world.
00:06:06I am living in the real world.
00:06:13Really?
00:06:14Because getting fired yet from another restaurant job is the real world.
00:06:17Creative differences.
00:06:20There are always creative differences with you.
00:06:24Lily.
00:06:26You've got to open up your own place.
00:06:28You're a chef, not a fucking line cook.
00:06:30So you've got to show the world what you got.
00:06:33Besides, I have my share of money.
00:06:36But without yours, we're never going to be able to afford mom's operation.
00:06:41Yeah, it'll be all my fault.
00:06:44Lily.
00:06:47There is an opening at my office.
00:06:50Seriously?
00:06:51It's stable.
00:06:53Health insurance.
00:06:54401k.
00:06:55I'd rather die.
00:06:56You'd rather be broke.
00:06:57No, I'd rather...
00:06:58How can you help mom when you can't even take care of yourself?
00:07:08Fine.
00:07:14Yeah, you're right.
00:07:16Let's do it.
00:07:17Let's do it.
00:07:19Hi.
00:07:43Name?
00:07:47Lily Dunning.
00:07:48Can I help you?
00:07:50Yes, I'm here for the job interview.
00:07:52My sister's Megan.
00:07:53She works here.
00:07:55Last place of employment?
00:07:57Chez Francois.
00:07:59A restaurant?
00:08:00Yes, I'm a chef.
00:08:02My passion's cooking, so I...
00:08:04And does this look like a restaurant to you?
00:08:06No.
00:08:08No, of course not.
00:08:10And why do you think someone like you could work here?
00:08:15Um, I just need a job.
00:08:18Sorry, I'm...
00:08:19Thanks, we'll let you know, okay?
00:08:23You can go now.
00:08:25Bye-bye.
00:08:25Screw this.
00:08:38Fuck.
00:08:48What are you looking at?
00:08:50What are you looking at?
00:08:55I'm sorry, Mom.
00:08:59I've tried everything, and I've let you down.
00:09:01You.
00:09:04Me.
00:09:08You dropped something.
00:09:11How did you?
00:09:15What are you doing here?
00:09:17I have a proposition for you.
00:09:20Sorry, I'm not interested in propositions from strange men in suits.
00:09:24Well, hold on. Just hear me out. I heard you get fired.
00:09:28I know you don't have any money.
00:09:31Looks like you're in a bit of a rough spot.
00:09:33I'm doing fine, thank you.
00:09:36Really?
00:09:39What if I told you this proposition could solve all your problems?
00:09:44Really? Solve all my problems?
00:09:48I've got a lot of problems.
00:09:50What if I told you I need a wife?
00:09:52I tell you that there are apps for that.
00:09:54For one year.
00:09:55Classy.
00:09:56Look, listen.
00:09:58I have a very important business deal with some very important people involved,
00:10:02and they need to see stability.
00:10:05Okay, so find someone stable.
00:10:07Well, that's just it.
00:10:09I need someone who won't fall in love with me.
00:10:11Someone who will just walk away after the year.
00:10:14And you seem uniquely qualified.
00:10:17I thought you think I'm good at walking away.
00:10:26Okay, well, what's in it for me?
00:10:28Well, anything you want.
00:10:29Money.
00:10:30Place to live.
00:10:32Complete financial freedom to pursue your dreams.
00:10:35Just think of it as a business deal.
00:10:36Wow.
00:10:46Yeah, that's a really big diamond.
00:10:52It's just a very small part of the deal.
00:10:53You'll have your whole wing of the house.
00:11:07My own wing?
00:11:08Complete privacy.
00:11:10But you will have to attend events with me.
00:11:12Play the happy wife.
00:11:13This is, um, specific.
00:11:40I like clarity.
00:11:43Wife agrees to perform...
00:11:53Very specific.
00:11:59Is there a problem?
00:12:02Jack, we need to talk.
00:12:06What's going on here?
00:12:11No.
00:12:13I'm saying yes.
00:12:28To everything.
00:12:29Do you, Jack Thorne?
00:12:47This is insane.
00:12:48Shut up, boy.
00:12:50Take Lily Dunning to be your lawfully wedded wife.
00:12:54This is fucking nuts.
00:12:55Shut the fuck up.
00:12:56I do.
00:13:01I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:13:04I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:13:04I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:13:05I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:13:06I know you're not.
00:13:07I know you're not.
00:13:08I know you're not.
00:13:09I know you're not.
00:13:10I know you're not.
00:13:11I know you're not.
00:13:12I know you're not.
00:13:13I know you're not.
00:13:14I know you're not.
00:13:15I know you're not.
00:13:16I know you're not.
00:13:17I know you're not.
00:13:18I know you're not.
00:13:19I know you're not.
00:13:20I know you're not.
00:13:21I know you're not.
00:13:22I know you're not.
00:13:23I know you're not.
00:13:24I know you're not.
00:13:25I know you're not.
00:13:26I know you're not.
00:13:27I know you're not.
00:13:28I know you're not.
00:13:29I know you're not.
00:13:30You're not.
00:13:31this marriage is
00:13:50it's just a contract

00:15:53Oh my gosh.
00:16:13Bravo?
00:16:18This is... a lot.
00:16:24The contract stipulates appropriate attire for all occasions, including tonight's charity
00:16:29gala.
00:16:31I can't accept this.
00:16:32You can, and you will.
00:16:35Unless you want to attend the event in jeans.
00:16:41You know, this doesn't mean that I like you.
00:16:48Wouldn't dream of it.
00:16:56Ready for your debut, Mrs. Thorne?
00:17:00Yes, I am, Mr. Thorne.
00:17:10Hi.
00:17:11And then I said, do you want me to cut this steak?
00:17:17I don't need a knife.
00:17:18I just need a chainsaw.
00:17:20Okay.
00:17:21Jackie, there you are.
00:17:24Warren tells me the Morrison deal is all in the bag.
00:17:27We simply must celebrate.
00:17:29I heard about your little stunt wedding.
00:17:32That doesn't mean we can't celebrate, right?
00:17:36I could think of a dozen things you could do to me.
00:17:45My God.
00:17:46This is a $10,000 Valentino.
00:17:48I'm sorry, but I didn't even do anything.
00:17:52Where did you find this one, Jackie?
00:17:54Wagstaff Training School?
00:17:56Vivian.
00:17:57Oh, that was it.
00:18:00She was actually a waitress.
00:18:02Or, I don't remember.
00:18:04Whatever it was.
00:18:05Excuse me.
00:18:09So, when she got to say hi, I went down for the ex.
00:18:18As I was saying.
00:18:27You know, you should really come over here and taste this.
00:18:57Wow.
00:19:12Good?
00:19:13Surprisingly good.
00:19:14Surprisingly good.
00:19:15Well, payment for spying.
00:19:20Payment accepted.
00:19:22accepted. You know, the house this grand, I would expect a kitchen to match. I had to
00:19:34make do. No, I never cook. It's a shame. You can go now.
00:19:52You, um, wanted to see me. Time for your first lesson. My what?
00:20:15Self-defense. Never know when you might need it. I don't know if that's really...
00:20:20Number one. Stance. Move the feet apart. Bend this knee. Yeah. Then move this foot forward.
00:20:31Okay. Okay. Now, hands up. Protect the face. Okay. Now, like this.
00:20:40Oh, God. I'm not really good at this. We're just getting started.
00:20:52Oh. Maybe we should just focus on business. Rule number one. Stance. Right?
00:21:03All right.
00:21:33Rules. I have a business expense. Business expense. These are the best knives on the market.
00:21:45The best knives for the best chef?
00:21:49Why are you doing this? The contract. No. The real reason.
00:21:56Maybe I just like watching you work. Maybe. You just like watching me.
00:22:10You know that, um, this doesn't change anything.
00:22:15Of course not.
00:22:15This is for your mother.
00:22:28This... No, this is too much.
00:22:30This should cover the whole thing.
00:22:33At least I can do.
00:22:34I think that's literally the nicest thing a male has ever done for me.
00:22:42What's the catch?
00:22:43We've got a problem.
00:22:56Morning to you, too.
00:22:58So, the inheritance release date is set, but...
00:23:01If anyone finds out about the marriage, then...
00:23:02No one's gonna find out.
00:23:04Oh, really?
00:23:05Because your little chef seems to be quite the talk of the town.
00:23:07It's under control.
00:23:08Is it?
00:23:12It seems like you're letting your feelings control all your...
00:23:15I said it's handled.
00:23:27Just remember what's at stake here, yeah?
00:23:29This Morrison deal...
00:23:32is a deal of a lifetime.
00:23:36Don't tell me you're actually fooling me.
00:23:37Get out.
00:23:38Don't tell me you're actually fooling me.
00:23:39Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:23:40Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:23:41Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:23:42Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:23:43Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:23:44Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:23:45Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:23:46Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:23:47Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:23:48Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:23:49Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:23:50Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:23:51Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:23:52Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:23:53Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:23:54Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:23:55Don't tell me you're fooling me.
00:25:26Jack, darling, glad to see you here.
00:25:31Vivian?
00:25:32The 82 Crystal.
00:25:34Remember the Crystal, Jack?
00:25:37I can still feel it running down my back just thinking about it.
00:25:41We even used to drink some of it.
00:25:44Anyway, we have business to discuss.
00:25:46You'll never believe what Hannah said about the Asian market today.
00:25:48Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:25:53This must be so boring for you.
00:25:56You're so insightful, Vivian.
00:25:58You do bore me.
00:26:00Darling, the adults have business to discuss.
00:26:03Why don't you go back to, like, chopping or whatever it is that you do?
00:26:08So basically, you know, the company way that we have our investments holding in?
00:26:11I had a business meeting with Hannah today,
00:26:13and she has basically advised me to say that our investments are not making any profit.
00:26:18The company itself isn't actually doing all too well.
00:26:20So my proposal for next year would be basically...
00:26:22Why the whirlwind romance you've got there?
00:26:41What's the catch?
00:26:44There's always a catch.
00:26:46Excuse me.
00:26:47Rebecca Chen.
00:26:49Social pages.
00:26:50Two days from first meeting to marriage.
00:26:54This must be some kind of record.
00:26:57Though lately I've been more interested in business deals.
00:27:01Hmm.
00:27:01What would you say?
00:27:04Love at first sight or something more contractual?
00:27:09You know, you should really write romance novels.
00:27:11Seems you have quite the imagination.
00:27:18We'll talk again soon, Mrs. Thorne.
00:27:20I have a feeling there's quite a story here.
00:27:31The Morrison Foundation dinner's tonight.
00:27:34Oh, great.
00:27:35Another dinner.
00:27:36It's important.
00:27:37They're all important.
00:27:38It's a part of the deal.
00:27:39They're all a part of the deal.
00:27:44You knew what you were signing up for.
00:27:46Did I?
00:27:49At least Vivian will be there.
00:27:51To talk deals and acquisitions and mergers.
00:27:57Okay, whatever.
00:27:58Nice.
00:28:11Real mature.
00:28:14No, don't.
00:28:16Fuck.
00:28:19Okay.
00:28:20Okay, fine.
00:28:21You want to go?
00:28:22Nope.
00:28:25No, no, no.
00:28:30Okay, really?
00:28:31No.
00:28:32Yeah, yeah.
00:28:33No, no, no, no.
00:28:33No, no, no.
00:28:35No, no, no.
00:28:35Let go.
00:28:36No.
00:28:36No.
00:28:37No.
00:28:37No.
00:28:38No.
00:28:38Ah!
00:28:40Oh!
00:28:41Oh!
00:29:08Yeah.
00:29:16So, Jack's inheritance is all set.
00:29:19But he still hasn't signed the papers to commit the proceeds to the Morrison deal.
00:29:23That's a problem.
00:29:25Hmm.
00:29:26It's the girl, isn't it?
00:29:28The waitress.
00:29:29You and I both know she's been a problem from the start.
00:29:32And I thought you had everything under control.
00:29:34Oh, I've done my part.
00:29:36That's underway.
00:29:38And I thought you'd have your part under control.
00:29:42I have everything under control.
00:29:44Oh, really?
00:29:45Because it doesn't seem like it, Vivian.
00:29:46You know, maybe I overestimated your sway over, Jack.
00:29:50You haven't overestimated anything.
00:29:52I've just begun.
00:29:58I've got it.
00:30:06Funny how you can always count on the help to answer the door.
00:30:14I live here.
00:30:16Of course we do.
00:30:19Okay, thanks.
00:30:22Jack, darling.
00:30:23Should we proceed to the study?
00:30:25We need to discuss the Morrison deal.
00:30:27Yeah?
00:30:28Yeah.
00:30:33Oh, we need to discuss the Morrison deal.
00:30:40Vivian?
00:30:43Remember Tokyo?
00:30:44That Zaki bar?
00:30:46I'm married.
00:30:49Are you now?
00:30:52I hadn't noticed.
00:30:54Uh-huh.
00:30:55You know that feeling?
00:30:57When you leave the house?
00:30:59And you just feel like...
00:31:01You've forgotten something?
00:31:03I forgot something.
00:31:14Maybe you can...
00:31:17Help me figure it out?
00:31:22Coffee?
00:31:24Oh, no thank you.
00:31:26Jack and I have much to catch up on.
00:31:30Oh, and Jack doesn't drink coffee.
00:31:32Do you, Jack?
00:31:34Actually, I've taken it up recently.
00:31:36Hmm.
00:31:37I guess before me, Jack never really had coffee how he liked it.
00:31:40And he just absolutely laps up every drop of my coffee.
00:31:49Isn't that right?
00:31:51Lily makes a great cup of coffee.
00:31:54Hmm.
00:31:58So...
00:32:00How's Vivian?
00:32:03Focus on your form.
00:32:05You know, I was just wondering.
00:32:07How long the two of you...
00:32:08Ancient history.
00:32:10That's not what I heard.
00:32:12From who?
00:32:14Around.
00:32:16Tokyo gets brought up a lot.
00:32:18You've been talking to Warren.
00:32:20You've been talking to Vivian.
00:32:22That's business.
00:32:24Everything is business with you, isn't it?
00:32:26But you know what?
00:32:27What's this?
00:32:29Some pretty big business.
00:32:30That you haven't been sharing with me.
00:32:32I think Vivian wants some of it too.
00:32:34But you know what?
00:32:36Maybe you should just keep your business to yourself.
00:32:37It's sad.
00:32:38Watch your stance.
00:32:39I don't want to be lied to.
00:32:40I don't want to be lied to.
00:32:41I'm not lying, Lily.
00:32:42Don't break my heart.
00:32:43Yeah.
00:32:44I don't want to be lied to.
00:32:45I'm not lying, Lily.
00:32:46Don't break my heart.
00:32:47Yeah.
00:32:48Yeah.
00:32:49To yourself.
00:32:51Sad.
00:32:53Watch your stance.
00:32:58I don't want to be lied to.
00:33:01I'm not lying, Lily.
00:33:05Don't break my heart.
00:33:08Yeah.
00:33:19Yeah, the sky is so great today.
00:33:45Please act like you know me.
00:33:47There's someone following me.
00:33:48Oh my god, are you okay?
00:33:50Who's following you?
00:33:53That weirdo?
00:33:59Is he gone?
00:34:01I think he's gone.
00:34:10You sure?
00:34:11Like that?
00:34:23I think your technique could use some more.

00:34:30Sure, that wasn't me.

00:43:13Jack, the team is flying to Tokyo and they need you there.
00:43:16Final deal points.
00:43:17Jess leaving in 30.
00:43:18I packed your bag and I'll be waiting downstairs.
00:43:23Lily, wait.
00:43:26Just go.
00:43:40The way I can explain.
00:44:02Can you?
00:44:06Guess some business can't wait.
00:44:10This whole thing is...
00:44:19Let me get this straight.
00:44:21You sleep with him and then you find a note from his ex.
00:44:24That's complicated.
00:44:26When isn't it with you?
00:44:28Look, maybe it's time to admit this whole thing is just a little...
00:44:32What? A mistake?
00:44:33That you were right?
00:44:35Huh? Is that what you want to hear?
00:44:37No, I want you to be happy.
00:44:40And are you?
00:44:43I don't know what I am anymore.
00:44:45I mean, he paid for mom's operation, so that's cool, but I...
00:44:48I know.
00:44:49The worst part is I think I might actually be falling for...
00:44:57Lily?
00:44:59Stand back.
00:45:00What?
00:45:00Stand back, Megan.
00:45:01Keep it, keep it, keep it, keep it.
00:45:08Wait!
00:45:12Get down, motherfucker!
00:45:14Fucker!
00:45:15Oh my god!
00:45:17Fuck you!
00:45:19Come on, let's go.
00:45:22Fuck.
00:45:24Fuck.
00:45:24Fuck.
00:45:26What was that?
00:45:28Lessons with Jack.
00:45:29Jack, thought you that?
00:45:31Yeah.
00:45:32Yeah.
00:45:33Dude's getting better by a minute.
00:45:35I know.
00:45:36Oh, man.
00:45:40You okay?
00:45:41Yeah.
00:45:43God, things are supposed to be so simple.
00:45:47Now what?
00:45:48Oh.
00:45:49I don't even know what's real anymore.
00:45:52Oh, honey.
00:45:53I'm kidding.
00:45:53I don't even know what's real.
00:45:54I don't even know what's real.
00:45:55I don't even know what's real.
00:46:21He always keeps the ledger on his desk.
00:46:23Lauren, I've known you since college
00:46:37How could you?
00:46:4411 months
00:46:45Almost a year
00:46:47I barely knew that anymore
00:46:51Lily, I need to tell you something
00:47:04I'm all ears
00:47:05It's about the deal
00:47:07About Lauren, Vivian
00:47:09Well, if it isn't the happy couple
00:47:13Oh great
00:47:14The press
00:47:15These aren't real
00:47:27Oh, my sisters say they're very real
00:47:30Story runs in 48 hours
00:47:32Lily, this is what I was just about to tell you
00:47:34I've been set up
00:47:35Care to comment, Mrs. Thorne?
00:47:40You know, it's funny
00:47:43I
00:47:43For a minute
00:47:44I really believed
00:47:46Lily, wait
00:47:48They're not real
00:47:52Tick-tock, Mr. Thorne
00:48:05Lily, wait
00:48:06They're not real
00:48:09You have to believe me
00:48:11Look, I believed you when you said that this was just a business deal
00:48:14Like, I believed you when you said that Vivian was just a colleague
00:48:18Look, I believed that last night actually meant something
00:48:23It did
00:48:24Lily, what happened between us was
00:48:26The transaction
00:48:27That's all any of this ever was
00:48:30That's not true
00:48:32And you know it
00:48:34Do I?
00:48:35Because from where I'm standing
00:48:38You got everything that you wanted
00:48:41You got a wife when you needed one
00:48:43And a body when you wanted one
00:48:45Lily, that's not it
00:48:46Tell me I'm wrong
00:48:47Tell me that there's not something more going on here
00:48:50With the business deal
00:48:52And your inheritance
00:48:53Anything more to explain?
00:48:56That's what I thought
00:49:03You're a terrible person
00:49:08If you leave now, you violate the contract
00:49:12You get nothing
00:49:14I don't care
00:49:16I never cared about any of that
00:49:21Hands up
00:49:40Protect the face
00:49:42No, don't
00:49:44Go?
00:49:47Nope
00:49:47Warren?
00:49:57Finally, look
00:49:58About the Morrison deal
00:49:59It's off
00:50:00What do you mean it's off?
00:50:03All of it
00:50:03The deal
00:50:04The inheritance
00:50:06I don't want any of it
00:50:07Have you lost your freaking mind?
00:50:09I mean, everything that we've worked for
00:50:11Actually
00:50:12I think I found it
00:50:41You can't just hide here forever
00:50:50Watch me
00:50:51Hey
00:51:04What happened to the girl
00:51:06Who would never back down?
00:51:07The one who quit her job
00:51:10Because she didn't want to compromise
00:51:11She had played
00:51:12Did she?
00:51:18That's Jack
00:51:19I'm sure that's just my
00:51:20Oxygenarian neighbor
00:51:22Who's a total drama queen
00:51:23Watch
00:51:24Gladys
00:51:26Gladys, is that you?
00:51:30Do you need help with your phone?
00:51:32Sir
00:51:39Coffee
00:51:40Hi
00:51:42I did some digging around like you asked, sir
00:51:45You might want to see this
00:51:46What am I looking at here?
00:51:52Wire transfers
00:51:53Shell companies
00:51:54All leading back to Mr. Block
00:51:57Warren
00:51:58I knew it
00:52:00You might want to see these too, sir
00:52:02They'll illuminate things even more
00:52:03Son of a bitch
00:52:09He's trying to steal the inheritance
00:52:11He sure is
00:52:12All through a series of cleverly placed shell companies
00:52:16Although I suspect Miss Chase's interests are not purely financial
00:52:22Sir
00:52:34They're threatening Lily and her sister
00:52:36Then perhaps it's time we stop playing their game
00:52:40Give me everything you can about Warren
00:52:41Every meeting
00:52:42Every call
00:52:43Already compiled, sir
00:52:44I had a feeling we might need this
00:52:45Sir, what about the inheritance?
00:52:48Some things are worth more than money
00:52:49I'm calling back, Megan
00:53:04I'm calling back, Megan
00:53:04I'm calling back, Megan
00:53:06I'm calling back, Megan
00:53:09What about the earth?
00:53:09ifies
00:53:09kin
00:53:10is
00:53:10こと
00:53:28happy
00:53:32I got us into this.
00:53:55I can get us out of this.
00:53:57I can do this.
00:53:58I can do this.
00:53:59Your little cookie's on her way over to save her sister as we speak.
00:54:05And I wouldn't put money on how well that's going to go.
00:54:08If anything happens to her, that's up to you.
00:54:12Sign the papers.
00:54:15And this all goes away.
00:54:18Like those photos of you and me from that reporter suddenly went away.
00:54:24Deep fics really do hurt everyone involved, don't they?
00:54:29I always knew you were soft.
00:54:31But this?
00:54:33Throwing away a billion dollar inheritance for some chef.
00:54:36He's not throwing it away.
00:54:38He's giving it to us.
00:54:41All we need is a signature, Jack.
00:54:45You care too much, Jackie boy.
00:54:48Always have.
00:54:48I think we might need to send a little message.
00:54:55Hmm.
00:54:55Wait.
00:54:57Don't.
00:55:17Let me go, you psycho.
00:55:23Remember your training.
00:55:24Protect your face.
00:55:31Megan!
00:55:32Lenny!
00:55:36Welcome to the party, sweetheart.
00:55:40Come on.
00:55:41Come on.
00:55:46Of course it's a trap.
00:55:47The question is, what are you going to do about it?
00:55:54Lenny!
00:55:58I've traced the video feed to the Starlight Motel, sir.
00:56:01Room 115.
00:56:02Lauren's called the police.
00:56:04Already done.
00:56:05But sir, they're at least 20 minutes out.
00:56:07She doesn't have 20 minutes.
00:56:14No, no, no, no, no.
00:56:17Lauren, she's there.
00:56:19Lily's there.
00:56:19Lily!
00:56:23Hold on, Lily.
00:56:25Hold on.
00:56:30Hold on.
00:56:31Leave her alone.
00:56:40Shut up!
00:56:42Get away from my wife.
00:56:45Well, well.
00:56:46Hero arrives.
00:56:49Don't do it, Jackie boy.
00:56:51I'm not some damsel in distress.
00:56:56That's my girl.
00:57:05Oh.
00:57:07I guess it is real love, huh?
00:57:08That's for my sister.
00:57:20You son of a bitch.
00:57:24Yeah.
00:57:27Lily.
00:57:28About everything.
00:57:30The photos.
00:57:32Vivian.
00:57:32Now?
00:57:33Seriously?
00:57:34I love you.
00:57:35Not for any inheritance.
00:57:39Not for any deal.
00:57:41Just, you know.
00:57:45I know.
00:57:54You.
00:57:55Stay right there.
00:57:57Come on, come here.
00:58:05What the hell?
00:58:13This isn't...
00:58:14Possible.
00:58:18And I wouldn't put money on how well that's gonna go.
00:58:20Sign the papers.
00:58:21Deep fakes really do hurt everyone involved.
00:58:24That proves nothing.
00:58:25I think it might prove something.
00:58:27Yeah, and those photos that you planted,
00:58:29maybe use better AI next time.
00:58:31You can't.
00:58:32Yes, they can.
00:58:34And you two are under arrest.
00:58:37No.
00:58:38Your greatest, Jack,
00:58:40the inheritance, the...
00:58:41Are nothing compared to what I almost lost.
00:58:43You could have had it all, Jack.
00:58:47I do.
00:58:55Yes, thank you.
00:58:56Thanks.
00:58:57Now that's a story.
00:59:07Here to twist the knife?
00:59:08Actually.
00:59:10I'm here to get it right.
00:59:13Where did you...
00:59:14Lawrence sends his regards.
00:59:16Seems your butler is a little armchair investigative journalist.
00:59:20So, no scandal piece?
00:59:22Oh.
00:59:23There's definitely a scandal.
00:59:25But, not the one they wanted me to bite on.
00:59:32That's...
00:59:32Actually accurate.
00:59:34I'm a reporter.
00:59:35Truth is kind of my thing.
00:59:37Though, I must admit,
00:59:38I didn't see the secret martial arts skills coming.
00:59:42Yeah, neither did they.
00:59:44Story runs tomorrow.
00:59:47Catch you on the next scandal.
00:59:48Hmm.
00:59:48It'll be about the inheritance.
00:59:57Do you really think that I care about any of that now?
01:00:04Just take me home.
01:00:07Yes, dear.
01:00:08Hmm.
01:00:09Hmm.
01:00:10Hmm.
01:00:17Sun's coming, huh?
01:00:18It must be a new record.
01:00:21It is for me.
01:00:23Hmm.
01:00:24Any regrets?
01:00:26Only one.
01:00:29That I didn't get your chef special sooner.
01:00:32Could have saved us a lot.
01:00:32Hmm.
01:00:33Yeah.
01:00:34Wow.
01:00:38Excuse me, sir.
01:00:39Miss Chen's article is out.
01:00:41How bad is it?
01:00:43Well, actually, sir, you might want to see it.
01:00:46She's included the last bit you wanted to put in.
01:00:59Jack Thorne announced plans.
01:01:03In a shocking turn of events,
01:01:04tech entrepreneur Jack Thorne announced his plans
01:01:06to transform his inherited fortune
01:01:08into the city's largest culinary grant program.
01:01:11I'm surprised.
01:01:15But your, your inheritance is gone.
01:01:19Well, the inheritance, yeah.
01:01:21But turns out selling a tech company
01:01:23can be quite profitable.
01:01:24You sold the company?
01:01:26Turns out some things are worth more than money.
01:01:28Perfect, Julie and Danny.
01:01:45Keep them thin, okay?
01:01:46Just like that.
01:01:46This looks good audio.
01:02:05And who said there's no such thing
01:02:07as a happily ever after?
01:02:09Suckers.
01:02:10Can I get you your usual, sir?
01:02:13It depends.
01:02:15Did my wife make it?
01:02:16Hmm, the very same wife
01:02:18that you married for business?
01:02:19Best business decision I ever made.
01:02:27Hang on.
01:02:35Voila.
01:02:36I'm the best chef in town.
01:02:44You're only saying that
01:02:45because you're contractually obligated.
01:02:48I think that contract expired.
01:02:51Good thing I signed a new one.
01:02:52We are gathered here today.
01:03:01No more business deals this time.
01:03:04Just love.

01:03:20Without me in it.
01:03:24Is that all?
01:03:26Third.
01:03:27You have to meet it this time.
01:03:30I met it the first time.
01:03:31Just didn't know yet.
01:03:34The rings?
01:03:35It's actually...

01:03:42Something old.
01:03:44Something new.
01:03:46Something borrowed.
01:03:47Something...
01:03:49Not one.
01:03:50For better or worse.
01:04:00For real this time.

01:04:39I don't know.

01:04:44Can you handle them?
01:04:47I thought this wasn't about business anymore.
