00:00:00Hey, this is Richard Allenton. I can't answer the phone right now, so please leave a message.
00:00:15Hey, Grandpa.
00:00:18It's one thing to set me up on a bunch of blind dates with these goody two-shoe women.
00:00:24But to trick me into thinking I'm coming to a business meeting that's actually a blind date,
00:00:29that's low.
00:00:34Let's hope this one's different.
00:00:37I don't even know what to say to this guy.
00:00:40I don't know how to talk to rich people.
00:00:42Be sexy.
00:00:44Darling, just act better than everyone else in the room.
00:00:48And being sexy is easy.
00:00:50Bite your lip, push up the girls.
00:00:53It works every time.
00:00:54Wait, but what girls?
00:00:56And don't forget, these rich men get bored easily.
00:00:59So challenge them, be bold, and put them on the spot.
00:01:04I don't think I can do this.
00:01:05The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner I pay you for your mother's surgery.
00:01:11It's your call.
00:01:12You go.
00:01:18I don't think I can do this.
00:01:19It's your call.
00:01:21Stand up.
00:01:31I don't know.
00:01:33I don't know.
00:01:33I don't know.
00:01:35I don't know.
00:01:35I don't know.
00:01:36I don't know.
00:01:38This is your call.
00:01:38I don't know.
00:01:39Are you going to stare at me all night or be a gentleman and get my seat, big boy?
00:01:47Of course.
00:01:55Sorry, I've been set up with many girls before, but none like you.
00:02:01You're so...
00:02:03Rich?
00:02:04Sexy?
00:02:06Frankly, yes.
00:02:08Sorry, what was your name?
00:02:13Valentina Kingsley.
00:02:15And you are?
00:02:15Blaine Ellington, CEO of Ellington Incorporated.
00:02:20And this is a successful company?
00:02:23It's not ringing any bells.
00:02:26Waiter?
00:02:27Yes, Mr. Ellington.
00:02:29You still have the Chateau Petrus on the shelf, yes?
00:02:33Yes, of course.
00:02:33If so, we'll have two bottles.
00:02:35Uh, it's $60,000 per bottle, sir.
00:02:39You want two?
00:02:42Actually, I'm pretty thirsty.
00:02:45Better bring three.
00:02:47Yes, of course, right away, sir.
00:02:48And what do you do, Valentina Kingsley?
00:02:58I invest.
00:03:00In what?
00:03:02In everything.
00:03:04What am I not investing in?
00:03:08Businesses?
00:03:09Charities?
00:03:10I see.
00:03:13And you live in the city?
00:03:16The city.
00:03:18The hills.
00:03:19My yacht.
00:03:22My private island.
00:03:24I'm everywhere, darling.
00:03:26You're so impressive.
00:03:30So unlike the other girls I've seen.
00:03:33Doesn't surprise me.
00:03:34I'm one of a kind, darling.
00:03:41Um, you've got a little, uh...
00:03:54Kurt?
00:03:56Kurt?
00:03:56What's my manager doing here?
00:04:00Blaine!
00:04:00My business dinner just ended.
00:04:04The presentation for the China branch.
00:04:06Looking good.
00:04:07Amazing.
00:04:07You're the best, Kurt.
00:04:08Well, I just, uh, won't keep you two.
00:04:10Just wanted to say hi.
00:04:13Rose petals for a business dinner?
00:04:15Ended up being a blind date.
00:04:16Ah, classic.
00:04:18All right, well, you two have fun.
00:04:20I've got to be honest with you.
00:04:29You're so unlike any of the girls I've been with.
00:04:33Would you like to come to my place?
00:04:36I can take this chance to get closer to the AI code.
00:04:39Absolutely, darling.
00:04:46Whoa.
00:04:47Welcome to my home.
00:04:51After you.
00:05:08Oh, my.
00:05:09Okay.
00:05:17You like what you see?
00:05:23You're getting there, darling.
00:05:25Nothing like the Calvin Klein model I dated, but...
00:05:28Well, then, shall we get started?
00:05:33Uh, not so fast.
00:05:37Okay, a little foreplay?
00:05:39I did not think this through at all.
00:05:41How am I supposed to find the drive when he's trying to suck my face off?
00:05:44Looking for something?
00:05:51Oh, um...
00:05:52Ah.
00:05:56I should have known that was your style.
00:05:59Oh, yes, darling.
00:06:03Ugh.
00:06:04I can't believe people are actually into this.
00:06:06I'm not used to being the one tied up.
00:06:08It's usually the other way around.
00:06:10Valentina?
00:06:17Patience, darling.
00:06:18I'm...
00:06:18Building the suspense.
00:06:21Ah, I see.
00:06:23Where could it be?
00:06:24Right.
00:06:25And...
00:06:25You say guys actually like this?
00:06:28Oh, yes.
00:06:29It's very popular with the manly men in France.
00:06:32How long does it take for something to actually happen?
00:06:42That's...
00:06:43That's new.
00:06:47The painting!
00:06:48Maybe there's a safe behind there.
00:06:50Oh, uh...
00:06:51Sorry, this painting caught my eye.
00:06:54It looks exactly like...
00:06:56The one in my mansion in Sweden.
00:06:59It's where I keep my safe.
00:07:01Huh.
00:07:02People actually still hide things behind paintings?
00:07:06Thought that was only in the movies.
00:07:08Oh, no.
00:07:09It's quite popular.
00:07:11Where do you hide your luxurious safekeepings?
00:07:16In a super...
00:07:17Super, super secret hiding place.
00:07:20Oh, come on.
00:07:23Now, why don't you come over here and get this thing started?
00:07:26Oh, uh...
00:07:28Most unfortunate.
00:07:29I'm...
00:07:30I'm getting the utmost important business call.
00:07:33And I must take it.
00:07:34Right now?
00:07:36What?
00:07:36What about me?
00:07:38Valentina!
00:07:42Wait!
00:07:44Untie me!
00:07:45Ew.
00:07:53Really, Blaine?
00:07:54What?
00:07:55But...
00:07:56You and your models.
00:07:58Last night was not a model.
00:08:01Mm-hmm.
00:08:01I was actually impressed.
00:08:04Did I hear it right?
00:08:06Blaine actually had a date he liked.
00:08:09It was fantastic.
00:08:10The other girls, they're so boring.
00:08:13But this one, she's a mystery I can't quite crack.
00:08:17I must see her again.
00:08:19Blaine, these dates aren't about you having sexy adventures.
00:08:22It's about you finding a wife you can settle down with and running the company.
00:08:29Grandfather.
00:08:30Mm-hmm?
00:08:31Listen to him.
00:08:32He's not ready to be the face of Ellington.
00:08:34I am much more qualified.
00:08:35Oh, yeah.
00:08:36I'm done having this conversation with you, dear.
00:08:40Mm-hmm.
00:08:41No, no, no, no.
00:08:42Look, you do great work right where you are.
00:08:46Right?
00:08:46Yeah, you weren't meant to be some CEO.
00:08:49No, but Blaine, Blaine will learn in time.
00:08:53Whatever.
00:08:55Have fun with your little girlfriend, Blaine.
00:08:58I have actual work to attend to.
00:09:01Oh.
00:09:04Yeah, yeah, thanks.
00:09:06Hello?
00:09:13How's our plan going, darling?
00:09:17To perfection.
00:09:20She already has Blaine wrapped around her finger.
00:09:22It won't be long until he slips up,
00:09:24and I can step in and take my throne as Ellington's CEO.
00:09:29Brilliant.
00:09:30It's all coming together perfectly.
00:09:33And the VR tech you're developing.
00:09:34It'll be ready in time when I trade the AI code, right?
00:09:37Oh, yes.
00:09:38It'll be ready.
00:09:39Soon we'll be queens of the tech world.
00:09:42What's he doing here?
00:09:57Speaking of girls, I think I know who would be perfect as your new assistant.
00:10:02Sorry.
00:10:02I'm fine.
00:10:06Ariel.
00:10:07How does he know my name?
00:10:09You dropped your badge.
00:10:17There you go.
00:10:19Thanks.
00:10:19Are you playing hide-and-seek?
00:10:31Is that where you were late?
00:10:32Can I hide next?
00:10:33No, I was dropping your mom off at the hospital.
00:10:36Oh, that was unexpectedly personal.
00:10:37Wait, oh my god, is she okay?
00:10:40Should I bring her a fruit basket?
00:10:41She's just getting some tests done.
00:10:43Oh, thank goodness.
00:10:45Hey, by the way, did you hear?
00:10:47Our new CEO is looking for a personal assistant.
00:10:50Are you going to apply?
00:10:51I'm good where I am.
00:10:52But all the girls are applying.
00:10:54Everyone wants to get close to our boss.
00:10:56You're the best employee in our department, Ariel.
00:10:57I think this position is yours.
00:10:59He's gorgeous.
00:11:12I wouldn't mind looking at that hunk of man all day.
00:11:16Attention, everyone.
00:11:18My name is Blaine, and I am the new CEO.
00:11:22I will try my best to live up to my father,
00:11:25but I ask for patience as I adjust to the new role.
00:11:29And since he is adjusting to this new role,
00:11:32I've decided to assign him a new assistant.
00:11:35Not me, not me, not me.
00:11:37Blaine, meet your new assistant, Ariel.
00:11:45All right, everyone, back to work.
00:11:48You look exactly like...
00:11:58Oh, my God, my cover's blown.
00:12:05Clean, organized desk, confident composure.
00:12:10There'd be a pay raise, of course.
00:12:12This could get me closer to finding the code.
00:12:16When do I start?
00:12:17Perfect.
00:12:19First thing I need help with, there's this file.
00:12:21Oh, um, gotta take a phone call.
00:12:24Send it to me in an email.
00:12:29Ariel, he wants to meet you again.
00:12:32Really?
00:12:33Also, I got you a second number.
00:12:35Just click the link to connect it,
00:12:37so from now on, you're the one he'll be calling.
00:12:41Great.
00:12:47New number, huh?
00:12:52Hello?
00:12:54Hello, Ariel.
00:12:55This is Dr. Westphal.
00:12:56We just got your mother's results.
00:13:02It's not what we hoped.
00:13:04So we need to move quickly
00:13:05if we want that experimental procedure to be a success.
00:13:08Okay, I understand.
00:13:10I'll come up with the money for it soon.
00:13:21Oh, perfect timing.
00:13:23I just finished dinner.
00:13:24Mom, you should be in bed.
00:13:26Honey, I'm fine.
00:13:28Besides, you've been working all day.
00:13:29You shouldn't have to cook for yourself.
00:13:31Mom, please.
00:13:32Honey, sit down.
00:13:34The doctor called?
00:13:46He says it's gotten worse.
00:13:47Oh, hush, hush, hush, hush.
00:13:48Hush.
00:13:49None of that talk, okay?
00:13:51Mom, eat before your food gets cold.
00:14:02I'll be right back.
00:14:04It's time for the second date, darling.
00:14:12Are you ready?
00:14:15Yeah.
00:14:18Mom, I have to leave for work.
00:14:21I'll make it to go.
00:14:22Oh, where am I?
00:14:44Valentina!
00:14:45Blaine!
00:14:46Darling, what is this dreadful place?
00:14:50Do you intend to have me killed?
00:14:52No, not at all.
00:14:53This place is special.
00:14:55Follow me.
00:15:08How many more?
00:15:10We're almost there.
00:15:10Come on.
00:15:27Wow.
00:15:27Look at you.
00:15:28Would you look at that view?
00:15:40I bet you bring all your models up here.
00:15:43Just you, actually.
00:15:45I discovered this place after my father died.
00:15:48I've been thrown into the CEO position, and I'm a bit in over my head, so I never really get a chance to myself, except when I come here.
00:16:03I'm so sorry.
00:16:13My mom is sick.
00:16:14She needs experimental surgery.
00:16:23So I know it feels to want to get away.
00:16:28Yeah.
00:16:30I'm used to getting everything, but this is one thing that money can't buy.
00:16:37So sorry about your mom.
00:16:40Thanks.
00:16:40She's all I've got.
00:16:45I don't want to say goodbye to her.
00:16:56Hey!
00:16:57Who's out here?
00:17:04What's happening?
00:17:06Technically, we're not supposed to be up here.
00:17:08What?
00:17:08Run.
00:17:10Hey!
00:17:20Still.
00:17:26What was that?
00:17:27That was fun.
00:17:29Did Calvin Klein take you on any dates that adventurous?
00:17:32No.
00:17:32I suppose not.
00:17:36I haven't felt this way in a really long time.
00:17:39I feel like I can be myself around you.
00:17:44I feel the same way.
00:17:46Will you be my girlfriend, Valentina?
00:17:48That's right.
00:17:49I'm supposed to be Valentina.
00:17:51I can't do this to him.
00:17:52But I need to pay for my mom's surgery.
00:18:02I'd love to.
00:18:07Well, well, well.
00:18:10Martina, what are you doing here?
00:18:11I heard you were actually acting like a big boy CEO.
00:18:16I had to see it for myself.
00:18:18Well, that blind date went so well the other night, it got me thinking maybe grandfather was right.
00:18:24Is that so?
00:18:26Blaine's got himself a little girlfriend?
00:18:29That's right.
00:18:29Wow.
00:18:31What's she like?
00:18:32She's funny, mysterious, confident, hardworking, charitable.
00:18:38She's the whole package.
00:18:40Hmm.
00:18:41Sounds like one that Dad actually would have approved of.
00:18:43I'd love to meet her.
00:18:47Oh, sorry, Mr. Ellington.
00:18:49Is this about time?
00:18:50No, not at all.
00:18:51My sister just came to visit.
00:18:53Martina, this is my new assistant, Ariel.
00:18:55Martina, nice to meet you.
00:18:58Likewise.
00:18:59Glad to see my brother as someone to make sure this launch goes smoothly.
00:19:03Don't you worry.
00:19:04I got this.
00:19:06Well, 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.
00:19:11I didn't lose the keys to the Maserati, and don't you worry.
00:19:14I've got the codes right here on this drive, and I'm keeping it safe.
00:19:25Glad to hear you're doing that.
00:19:34I have wasted enough time.
00:19:38Now you know exactly where it is.
00:19:40Get it.
00:19:51All right, where's that drive?
00:19:52Are you kidding?
00:19:59There's nothing in here.
00:20:14They're coming in.
00:20:15Crap.
00:20:16How about we celebrate your China contract with a nice glass of whiskey?
00:20:20You don't twist my arm.
00:20:22You don't twist my arm.
00:20:25No, no, no.
00:20:33Oh, yeah.
00:20:38Sarah, cheers.
00:20:39Don't you guys have that meeting with China right now?
00:20:44Right.
00:20:45Right.
00:20:45Right.
00:20:45After that.
00:20:46Yeah.
00:20:52Oh, that was close.
00:21:02Hey, girlfriend.
00:21:03Can I ask your advice on something?
00:21:05Sure.
00:21:06What's going on?
00:21:07So, I have this friend who is having boy problems.
00:21:11Aren't we all?
00:21:12So, she has a crush on her boss, and she doesn't know what to do about it because of the whole
00:21:16workplace relationship thing.
00:21:18How did she find out I like Blaine?
00:21:20Wait.
00:21:21I don't like Blaine.
00:21:22But he deserves to know, though, right?
00:21:24You're going to tell him?
00:21:25I mean, I don't know.
00:21:26Because what if I tell Kurt I like him, and he doesn't like me, and then it's so totally
00:21:30awkward, and so he fires me because it's so totally awkward.
00:21:33Wait.
00:21:34Do you like Kurt?
00:21:35I've got to go.
00:21:37Wait.
00:21:38Ring, ring.
00:21:38Oh, I'm getting a good call.
00:21:41Ring, ring.
00:21:43Ring, ring.
00:21:44Ring, ring.
00:21:47Ariel.
00:21:49Yes, Mr. Ellington?
00:21:52I need your personal help.
00:21:54Well, I am your personal assistant.
00:22:05I've never gotten a girl a gift.
00:22:08Wow, really?
00:22:10I mean, yeah.
00:22:12First girlfriend, first gift.
00:22:14Checks out.
00:22:16So, I need your help to figure out which you think a woman would prefer.
00:22:31Oh, my God.
00:22:32I'm going to be wearing that?
00:22:35Sorry?
00:22:36Your girlfriend's going to be wearing that?
00:22:39Yeah.
00:22:40It's pretty nice, right?
00:22:41Well, I mean, it's option one.
00:22:44Do you think she'll like it?
00:22:46Um, well, what's your girlfriend like?
00:22:50What are her tastes?
00:22:54Sophisticated, generous, gorgeous.
00:22:58The whole world slows down whenever she walks into a room.
00:23:01I see.
00:23:08So, keep that in mind.
00:23:10Option two.
00:23:16And that's even more revealing than the first one.
00:23:18Yeah.
00:23:19This is big in Europe.
00:23:21Between you and me, I'm written for this guy.
00:23:23Mm-hmm.
00:23:25I see.
00:23:25Do you have anything more modest?
00:23:30Hmm.
00:23:31Modest?
00:23:32Yeah.
00:23:33That seems to be the style I've been seeing these days.
00:23:37With the rich folk, at least.
00:23:39You know, now that you say it, I think I do have something.
00:23:49Aha.
00:23:52What do you think?
00:23:53I think she'd really like that.
00:24:02Can I have a margarita?
00:24:06You can't be serious, darling.
00:24:10She'll have a friend 75 with cognac.
00:24:12Flora, what are you doing here?
00:24:14Making sure you look the part.
00:24:16You want to make the money for your dear mother, don't you?
00:24:19Yes, more than anything.
00:24:21Then you need to keep your eyes on the prize.
00:24:24We need to get our hands on that code fast.
00:24:27Once I do, I can fund your mother's surgery.
00:24:30But until then, we're in this together.
00:24:33Yes?
00:24:34Yeah.
00:24:36Excellent.
00:24:37Now, what's your game plan?
00:24:40Make him even more vulnerable and get him to tell me where the code is.
00:24:44And how do you suppose you'll do that?
00:24:46Um, be nice?
00:24:54Your ignorance is both cute and annoying.
00:24:58No.
00:24:59A man like Blaine Ellington is going to become vulnerable from two things.
00:25:05Drinking with him and going to bed with him.
00:25:09Right.
00:25:10I, I can, I can do that.
00:25:14I hope so.
00:25:15Because he's coming this way.
00:25:19Get the code soon, honey.
00:25:21For your mother.
00:25:23Okay.
00:25:26Oh!
00:25:27And darling, have fun.
00:25:32All right.
00:25:36Valentina.
00:25:37How are you?
00:25:41Wonderful, love.
00:25:42I've been looking forward to this all day.
00:25:44Is that so?
00:25:45Indeed.
00:25:47I was so distracted.
00:25:49It affected my croquet score.
00:25:52Oh no.
00:25:52Distracted over little old me.
00:25:54Yes.
00:25:55I simply must know everything about you.
00:25:58Well, what would you like to know?
00:26:01Everything.
00:26:03Well, I don't know about everything.
00:26:05It might take some time for me to open up.
00:26:07Well, maybe after a few drinks.
00:26:11Only if you can keep up.
00:26:13See, I don't really start talking until after a lot of drinking.
00:26:17Oh no.
00:26:19Well, here goes nothing.
00:26:20Oh man.
00:26:28Oh man.
00:26:29That's really good.
00:26:31That's not in that.
00:26:33That's funny.
00:26:35That's not...
00:26:36You know, my sister is implying today that I should tell someone where my new AI code is
00:26:48It's because I forget stuff.
00:26:51Are you forgetful?
00:26:54I mean, yeah.
00:26:56Can you actually believe I lost the keys to a Maserati?
00:27:00Really?
00:27:01Yeah.
00:27:02It cost me $10,000 just to get them re-keed.
00:27:07Which is why I should probably tell someone in case I do forget.
00:27:14So maybe I should tell you because you're so awesome.
00:27:18Interestworthy?
00:27:19Well, if you'd like, go ahead.
00:27:22I'll tell you.
00:27:23But first...
00:27:25I'm going to hit the men's room.
00:27:34This is it.
00:27:36All I need to do is ask him where the code is and my mission is over.
00:27:40Nothing can stop me now.
00:27:42Ariel?
00:27:44Except my ex-boyfriend.
00:27:48I don't know what you're talking about, darling.
00:27:51I don't know this Ariel.
00:27:54No, no, no, no, no.
00:27:56You are definitely Ariel.
00:28:00But what are you doing in a place like this?
00:28:03You're poor.
00:28:04Fine.
00:28:05Please just leave, Max.
00:28:07It's Max-a-Million now.
00:28:09Because I'm Max, and I make millions.
00:28:12Whatever.
00:28:13Please.
00:28:14I'm begging you.
00:28:15Look at you.
00:28:16You look so much better.
00:28:19You look...
00:28:20Oh, what's that word?
00:28:22Rich?
00:28:23Please.
00:28:24I don't know if you've been keeping up with my life lately, but I've become very rich.
00:28:29Yes.
00:28:30You've sent me 50 messages about it.
00:28:32I had to block your number.
00:28:33Oh.
00:28:34Yeah, that's right.
00:28:35Please, I'll do whatever you want, okay?
00:28:37I just...
00:28:38How about a kiss for old time's sake?
00:28:42You know, Ariel, sometimes I reminisce on our poor days together.
00:28:47This isn't happening.
00:28:49Do you not remember when we'd go and get Taco Tuesday at that Mexican restaurant and eat unlimited discount tacos?
00:28:57I'm very...
00:28:58Oh, God.
00:29:00Don't you have a girlfriend?
00:29:01Yes, he does.
00:29:02A situationship at best.
00:29:04Oh.
00:29:05Let go, Max.
00:29:06Nobody walks away from Maximilian Fletcher.
00:29:09Get off her.
00:29:13Blaine Ellington?
00:29:15Max Fletcher.
00:29:16Maximilian?
00:29:17What are you doing with that peasant?
00:29:20That's my girlfriend you're talking about.
00:29:22Blaine Ellington.
00:29:24Getting my sloppy seconds.
00:29:26This isn't over.
00:29:43Come on, Regina.
00:29:45Just stay away from my man, skink.
00:29:52He's actively trying to.
00:29:54Are you okay?
00:29:57Yeah, I think so.
00:29:58Yeah, I think so.
00:30:00We gotta get out of here.
00:30:02This isn't good.
00:30:02This isn't good.
00:30:11Care to explain this?
00:30:13I assume the article does a good job.
00:30:17Getting into a physical altercation in a bar?
00:30:21What are you, a child?
00:30:24I'm not a child.
00:30:26But he started it.
00:30:27Well, I don't care who started it.
00:30:29Ellington is a company based in family values.
00:30:34I was out with my girlfriend trying to uphold those family values.
00:30:38No, no, no, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't play the girlfriend card, okay?
00:30:41The onus is you on this, pal.
00:30:45You know, maybe, maybe, maybe your sister was right.
00:30:48Maybe you're too much of a risk, even though you say you've settled down.
00:30:52Either way, I just hope all this boils over next time we talk.
00:30:58What would your father think?
00:31:03On the easy lies the head that wears a crown.
00:31:20What is that?
00:31:21Some family motto I'm not aware of?
00:31:23It's Shakespeare, you idiot.
00:31:25Ah.
00:31:26What are you doing here?
00:31:28You don't want any of this.
00:31:29You don't know what I want.
00:31:31Uh, booze and bimbos?
00:31:35Or does page one of the paper say something different?
00:31:37She's not a bimbo.
00:31:41Then don't treat her like one.
00:31:43Treat her like dad treated mom.
00:31:49How do you mean?
00:31:52Bring her completely into your life.
00:31:55Let her know everything about you.
00:31:57I'm trying to.
00:31:58Just last night, we were sharing everything with each other.
00:32:01How can you share more?
00:32:03Behind most men's success is a strong woman.
00:32:07I will.
00:32:08I'm going to get close to this woman.
00:32:10You'll see.
00:32:11Hmm.
00:32:12And you will be like two lovely berries molded onto one stem.
00:32:17Shakespeare.
00:32:20Yeah?
00:32:21Ow.
00:32:21Ow.
00:32:21Ow.
00:32:21Ow.
00:32:21Ow.
00:32:21Ow.
00:32:21Ow.
00:32:21Ow.
00:32:23Ow.
00:32:23Ow.
00:32:23Ow.
00:32:23Ow.
00:32:31Ow.
00:32:32Ow.
00:32:33Martina.
00:32:34How are you?
00:32:36How am I?
00:32:38Yeah?
00:32:39How are you?
00:32:40I am annoyed.
00:32:40Time is running out, understand?
00:32:43Mm-hmm.
00:32:43We chose you because we thought you could get the job done.
00:32:46But now I'm not so sure.
00:32:50Wait.
00:32:50Oh, my God, do you have feelings for him?
00:32:54What? No.
00:32:56I hope not.
00:32:57Because you have four days to get that code?
00:33:00Or you can say bye to Mommy.
00:33:03Other than that, I am fine.
00:33:06Thanks for asking.
00:33:18Happy hump day, bestie!
00:33:20It's Tuesday, Hannah.
00:33:22Oh, right.
00:33:24Hey, how's your guide trouble coming?
00:33:25Better.
00:33:27And worse.
00:33:29That sounds super complicated.
00:33:31You have no idea.
00:33:33Aaron?
00:33:34Can you come in here?
00:33:35I'll be right there.
00:33:36Good thing you've got work to distract you.
00:33:39Good thing.
00:33:40Oh, you have the file for the new China branch?
00:33:50Yeah.
00:33:59Long night.
00:34:02You know what?
00:34:05Let's forget about the file.
00:34:06Let's just close our eyes for, oh, ten minutes.
00:34:29That's an order.
00:34:29Okay.
00:34:30Okay.
00:34:38This is nice.
00:34:41Yeah.
00:34:43This should be like an everyday thing.
00:34:48Mm-hmm.
00:34:48Good morning.
00:34:52Another beautiful day in Ellington.
00:34:54Let's get it.
00:34:54Woo!
00:34:55Oh, Hannah.
00:34:56Well, I guess that's over.
00:35:07Um.
00:35:08Well, everything should be there.
00:35:09I can't even concentrate on work right now.
00:35:15Oh?
00:35:16Why?
00:35:17Well, I don't know if you heard, but...
00:35:21Oh, my.
00:35:23That's, uh, quite a scene.
00:35:25Well, I'm glad you weren't there.
00:35:28I can imagine.
00:35:30Yeah, I just...
00:35:31I hope my girlfriend doesn't think that that's my kind of lifestyle.
00:35:35You should just talk to her and be honest.
00:35:40Yeah.
00:35:41I'm gonna call her.
00:35:43What?
00:35:46Yeah, can you be in the room when I do it?
00:35:48Uh, you want me in the room?
00:35:51Yeah.
00:35:51Yeah, maybe you could, you know, listen to her voice and read her.
00:35:55Tell me if she sounds upset.
00:35:59Uh...
00:36:00Yeah.
00:36:00I don't know if I feel comfortable.
00:36:02Oh, gosh, she makes me so nervous.
00:36:04I'm sure you make her nervous, too.
00:36:08Shit, shit, shit.
00:36:08Uh-oh.
00:36:12Uh-oh.
00:36:14Think, Ariel, think.
00:36:16Uh, I'm gonna be sick.
00:36:18Bathroom!
00:36:26Hello, darling.
00:36:27Hey, Valentina.
00:36:30How are you?
00:36:32Thriving, my dear.
00:36:33How are you feeling?
00:36:35A little banged up, but I've been worse.
00:36:38You should have been with me in my partying days in Ibiza.
00:36:42I was an absolute heathen.
00:36:50Well, I'm glad to hear you're feeling all right.
00:36:53Uh, I was worried.
00:36:55No need, darling.
00:36:58I'm actually at the spa right now.
00:37:02I wanted to know if, uh, I get to see you again.
00:37:07You will.
00:37:08Very soon.
00:37:09Uh, sorry.
00:37:17Can I help you?
00:37:20I couldn't hear you.
00:37:21It kind of sounded like...
00:37:22Uh, sorry.
00:37:24Eduardo is calling me for my hot stone massage.
00:37:28Must be going.
00:37:29Okay, uh, sure.
00:37:31See you.
00:37:32Ta-ta!
00:37:33Community theater.
00:37:41Hmm.
00:37:42Character.
00:37:43I'm rehearsing.
00:37:46We're a mystery.
00:37:49I'll, uh, send you the dates.
00:37:52I'm not in the theater.
00:37:55That's fair.
00:37:55Mom, I'm home.
00:38:14Hi, honey.
00:38:15How was your day?
00:38:18It was...
00:38:19not boring.
00:38:21How was yours?
00:38:23It was wonderful.
00:38:24I did laundry,
00:38:26watched some soaps.
00:38:29Um, what are you cooking?
00:38:31I told you I was gonna cook tonight.
00:38:33Well, you weren't home yet,
00:38:35and I wanted to go ahead and get started
00:38:36so your co-worker could have some, too.
00:38:38My co-worker?
00:38:41Hello, darling.
00:38:50Flora.
00:38:51What are you doing here?
00:38:52I was going to call you about a few work questions,
00:38:56but I was, uh, in the neighborhood
00:38:58and thought I'd drop in.
00:39:02Flora mentioned that you got a job promotion.
00:39:05You didn't say anything about a job promotion.
00:39:07I guess it slipped my mind.
00:39:11Well, you two don't mind me.
00:39:13Go ahead and have your work talk.
00:39:14Dinner will be ready soon.
00:39:15What are you doing here?
00:39:28Checking in to see what progress was made last night.
00:39:31I, um,
00:39:33I got close to finding out where he hit the drive,
00:39:36but I...
00:39:36But close doesn't pay the bills, does it?
00:39:39I'll get you the drive soon, I promise.
00:39:41Well, it sounds like the clock is ticking fast.
00:39:46You are not getting attached.
00:39:49What?
00:39:49No.
00:39:50Of course not.
00:39:51Good.
00:39:52I was worried you were developing feelings for the man.
00:39:57Dinner's ready.
00:40:00Deeply sorry, darling.
00:40:01Urgent business.
00:40:02Must be taking off.
00:40:03Oh, um, okay.
00:40:05Well, it was nice meeting you.
00:40:07You too, darling.
00:40:09Mwah.
00:40:19Tick tock.
00:40:20Tick tock.
00:40:20Tick tock.
00:40:22Tick tock.
00:40:24Tick tock.
00:40:26Tick tock.
00:40:28Tick tock.
00:40:30Tick tock.
00:40:32All right, I need ways to fix my image after that bar scandal.
00:40:38Any ideas?
00:40:41Inner rehab.
00:40:42Too tacky.
00:40:44Go volunteer in a third world country?
00:40:47Mm, too obvious.
00:40:49Record an apology video for social media and post it there.
00:40:52Too cringe.
00:40:57Adopt an orphan.
00:40:59Now that is something.
00:41:00Ariel, how good are you at raising kids?
00:41:02Um, let's think of other options.
00:41:07What about a charity ball?
00:41:09Yes.
00:41:10That's it.
00:41:11That's the one.
00:41:12I like that.
00:41:13I like it a lot.
00:41:15Isn't she good?
00:41:16Phenomenal.
00:41:18Well, really, we wouldn't be here had I not appointed her as your assistant.
00:41:21So, really, this kind of all comes back to...
00:41:24Got it.
00:41:25Wait.
00:41:25What charity would it be for?
00:41:28How about unknown disorders and illnesses?
00:41:31I'd love that.
00:41:32Let's get it rolling.
00:41:34I'll start right away.
00:41:35Ariel, you've become an integral part of our company, and I want to have you seated at our
00:41:41VIP table.
00:41:42Oh, my gosh.
00:41:44I'm honored.
00:41:45Me, my family, Kurt, my girlfriend Valentina, and you.
00:41:50Good job, Ariel.
00:41:58Let's see how it looks.
00:41:59Come out.
00:42:00It fits perfectly, darling.
00:42:08Wow.
00:42:09Stunning.
00:42:14Next, I'll have to get you a dress.
00:42:16A dress?
00:42:18What's the occasion?
00:42:20Well, I'm hosting this charity ball, and I would love for you to be my date.
00:42:26I love a good ball.
00:42:27But I must check my schedule, darling.
00:42:32Is this for that computer thingy you were talking about the other day?
00:42:36My new AI tech.
00:42:38It's going to revolutionize the world.
00:42:41Ah, yes.
00:42:43We got interrupted.
00:42:44You were going to tell me something important.
00:42:48What were you going to say?
00:42:50It's not really that necessary.
00:42:54You don't trust me?
00:42:56I do.
00:42:57This is my first major launch as Ellington CEO, and I just want it to go well.
00:43:04But I thought I was special.
00:43:07You are.
00:43:08I just...
00:43:12Well, you know, if you don't trust me...
00:43:15Wait.
00:43:16So, you do trust me?
00:43:26Mm-hmm.
00:43:26Mm-hmm.
00:43:36So, Blaine's going to tell me the super special secret?
00:43:41Mm-hmm.
00:43:41Where is it?
00:43:45It's here.
00:43:47In the mansion.
00:43:51It's here.
00:43:53Mm-hmm.
00:43:54Where in the mansion?
00:44:07It's...
00:44:10It's...
00:44:10Mm-hmm.
00:44:11Mm-hmm.
00:44:11Mm-hmm.
00:44:12Mm-hmm.
00:44:15Yeah.
00:44:18Now?
00:44:18Now?
00:44:22Okay.
00:44:23I'll be there.
00:44:27No, I don't know.
00:44:27Where are you going, darling?
00:44:33They need me to be on this call with China, so...
00:44:35I have to leave.
00:44:37You have to leave right now, darling?
00:44:40Yeah.
00:44:41Now.
00:44:42I'm sorry.
00:44:44Pick this back up again soon, huh?
00:44:47Yeah.
00:44:50Martina was right about you.
00:44:53I should start sharing more with you.
00:44:54Mm-hmm.
00:44:56What's that?
00:44:57I should start sharing more with you.
00:44:58I should start sharing more with you.
00:44:59I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:00I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:01I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:02I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:03I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:04I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:05I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:06I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:07I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:08I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:09I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:10I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:11I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:12I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:13I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:14I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:15I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:16I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:17I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:18I should start sharing more with you.
00:45:19Did you get it?
00:45:29The code is in Blaine's mansion.
00:45:32Excellent, darling.
00:45:33Excellent.
00:45:49Max, what are you doing here?
00:46:02What the hell are you doing here, Ariel?
00:46:04Or should I say, Valentina Kingsley?
00:46:07You wouldn't understand.
00:46:09Oh, I understand.
00:46:10You're acting like somebody else to take advantage of your rich boss, hmm?
00:46:15No, I'm not.
00:46:16You know, I have the responsibility to tell your little hotshot boyfriend who you really are.
00:46:23It's only the right thing to do.
00:46:26Please don't.
00:46:28You don't know what I'm doing.
00:46:28Oh, you'll lose your job?
00:46:30Your reputation?
00:46:33Oh, once word gets out, nobody will want you?
00:46:37What do you want, Max?
00:46:38I just want a little arrangement.
00:46:42I'd rather not.
00:46:43Ariel, you really do not want to make me angry.
00:46:49Did you just come here to hurt me?
00:46:52Oh, sweetheart, I don't want to hurt you.
00:46:55I want to destroy you.
00:46:58You have 24 hours to end this charade on your own.
00:47:03If by tomorrow, I see little Valentina Kingsley running around town,
00:47:08I'll do it for you.
00:47:11You seem extra happy today.
00:47:31I feel like Valentina and I, we got on a whole nother level last night.
00:47:35Wow, that's awesome, man.
00:47:38I'm so happy for you.
00:47:39Hi, Mr. Arlington.
00:47:40Hi, Kurt.
00:47:41Hi, Anna.
00:47:43Yeah, I feel like she's the one, Kurt.
00:47:47Kurt?
00:47:48Sorry, what were we talking about?
00:47:50Hi, Ariel.
00:47:55You all right?
00:47:57Yeah, I'm all right.
00:48:00I actually had an idea about the Cherry Bowl.
00:48:04Well, we keep reaching out to all of these extravagant venues for their availability.
00:48:09I was thinking we could host it ourselves.
00:48:12Where?
00:48:13I was thinking your house.
00:48:20Uh, I don't really like having people over at my house.
00:48:26Well, if we host it ourselves, it seems like a more intimate event.
00:48:31And then we could have it as soon as this weekend.
00:48:35Hmm, that makes sense.
00:48:36Okay, let's do it.
00:48:39Great.
00:48:40I'll send out the invitations.
00:48:45She really knows his company, inside and out.
00:48:48What do you know about Ariel?
00:48:52What do you want to know?
00:49:06Here you go, Mom.
00:49:09I'm sorry I couldn't stay awake for the movie.
00:49:12I'm just so sleepy.
00:49:13That's okay.
00:49:14We can watch it next weekend.
00:49:17Sweetie, you should be going out with your friends on a Saturday night.
00:49:21Mom, you are my friend.
00:49:23People your age, who you can be out dancing with, flirting with boys.
00:49:30I actually kind of have met this one boy.
00:49:33What?
00:49:34What's he like?
00:49:36It's complicated.
00:49:38Honey, you just need to follow your heart.
00:49:40Yeah, he's kind of sweet.
00:49:51Sweetie, I'm fine.
00:49:54I just need some rest.
00:49:55And then after your speech, we're going to dance the night away.
00:50:19I'm dreading giving this speech.
00:50:23I guess I'll just picture everyone wearing their underwear and I'll be fine, right?
00:50:27I always thought that was a little pervy, but...
00:50:30I promise, you're going to be amazing.
00:50:35Thank you so much for helping with this.
00:50:38This charity ball idea was genius.
00:50:41I need to make it up to you at some point.
00:50:44I was just doing my job, Mr. Ellington.
00:50:49Well, I should get going.
00:50:51Wait, um...
00:50:53I should probably call Valentina, right?
00:50:56Make sure the dress fits.
00:50:59I'm sure she'd appreciate that.
00:51:01All right.
00:51:02Good night.
00:51:15Hello, darling.
00:51:17I just wanted to make sure the dress fit.
00:51:20It's perfect.
00:51:22I'm looking forward to tomorrow.
00:51:24I can't wait either, darling.
00:51:27Good night.
00:51:27Ariel, this place looks amazing.
00:51:53Thanks, Kurt.
00:51:54You're looking sharp.
00:51:56Oh, yeah.
00:51:57Well, gotta dress to impress.
00:51:59No?
00:52:00Are you trying to impress anyone?
00:52:03Nah.
00:52:04Listen, random.
00:52:06Does Hannah have a boyfriend?
00:52:08I don't think so.
00:52:11I don't think so.
00:52:12Do you like her?
00:52:14No.
00:52:15No, no, no, no.
00:52:17No, I'm just trying to make friendly conversation.
00:52:21Yeah.
00:52:22We need more balloons in the dining room.
00:52:28Oh.
00:52:29You're still here.
00:52:31Yeah.
00:52:32Uh, listen.
00:52:32Listen, if someone were to ask Hannah to dance, what do you think the chances are that she
00:52:40would say yes?
00:52:42Probably good.
00:52:45Are you going to ask her to dance?
00:52:47No.
00:52:48No.
00:52:48No, no, no, no, no.
00:52:49No, I'm just, um, a fan of wild hypothetical scenarios.
00:52:55That one just sprung to mind.
00:52:58Mm-hmm.
00:52:58Okay.
00:53:01Yeah.
00:53:02Um, well, I'm, I'm going to go help Blaine practice his speech.
00:53:11So I'm going to do that right now.
00:53:14I will see you later.
00:53:16All right.
00:53:16See ya.
00:53:19And you must be, Ariel.
00:53:25Yes, hi.
00:53:29Hmm.
00:53:30You know, my grandson has spoken very fondly of you.
00:53:33He has?
00:53:34Oh, yes, yes.
00:53:35In fact, he says that, well, this whole thing was your idea.
00:53:40I suppose so.
00:53:42Wonderful.
00:53:44Kind of reminds me of something Blaine's father would have done if he were in Blaine's situation.
00:53:50Wow.
00:53:50That's such an honor.
00:53:52I heard he was a great man.
00:53:53Oh, he was a great man.
00:53:57Martina.
00:53:58Have you had the pleasure of meeting Blaine's assistant, Ariel?
00:54:02Yes, briefly.
00:54:03She's really helped Blaine become quite an impressive CEO.
00:54:07Man, yes, she has.
00:54:08In fact, I can, uh, I can see her playing a bigger role than Ellington if she keeps it up.
00:54:14Why wait?
00:54:15She could be a part of something huge tonight.
00:54:18Really?
00:54:19I think so.
00:54:20Don't you, Ariel?
00:54:21Uh, mm-hmm.
00:54:25Amazing.
00:54:26Well, I can't wait.
00:54:33Me either.
00:54:34I can't.
00:54:43I'll see it now.
00:54:47Don't you.
00:54:47I can't.
00:54:51I mean, I can't.
00:54:55No.
00:54:56I can't...
00:54:58I can't.
00:54:59Ariel!
00:55:16Blaine.
00:55:16There you are. I've been looking everywhere for you.
00:55:19Here I am.
00:55:20Have you seen Valentina?
00:55:23No, I don't think so.
00:55:24About your height, flowy hair, no glasses?
00:55:27Um, no. No, I don't think so.
00:55:31In fact...
00:55:33What?
00:55:34Nothing. It's ridiculous.
00:55:37I better say hi to those guests, but if you could find her for me, that would be great.
00:55:42I'll get right on that.
00:55:44Thank you. Bye.
00:55:57Just go out there and hype Blaine up so he can deliver his speech.
00:56:06Then we're back to finding the drive.
00:56:08Okay.
00:56:10You can do this.
00:56:13Oh, hi, Ariel.
00:56:17Uh, you must be mistaken, love.
00:56:20I don't know this Ariel you speak of.
00:56:22Yeah, okay. Ariel.
00:56:27No, seriously.
00:56:29My name is Valentina Kingsley and I'm a very wealthy socialite.
00:56:33Oh, I get it.
00:56:34It's like one of those improv games or something.
00:56:38No, no, no. No game.
00:56:40My name is...
00:56:41Valentina...
00:56:41Who else should I be?
00:56:43Just be yourself.
00:56:45I'm the Queen of England.
00:56:47You can really tell it's me?
00:56:53Well, yeah, but, I mean, I can be very observant.
00:56:57Really?
00:56:58Mm-hmm.
00:56:59Okay, well, Hannah, it's very important that this stays between us.
00:57:03Okay. Can I ask why?
00:57:06Well, it's really complicated.
00:57:09Um, but you have to promise me you won't tell anybody about this.
00:57:13Can we make it a pinky promise?
00:57:15Yeah, sure.
00:57:16Aw, well, good luck with whatever this is.
00:57:24Yeah, thanks.
00:57:26I'm gonna need it.
00:57:27Yeah.
00:57:27Yeah.
00:57:27Thanks.
00:57:27I'm gonna need it.
00:57:46Ah, there you are, darling.
00:57:52Ah, Valentina.
00:57:53I'm so glad to see you.
00:57:55Look at this place.
00:57:56I haven't seen a ball as elegant as this since the King of Spain's birthday.
00:58:00I'm glad it lives up to your approval.
00:58:02Of course.
00:58:03You're doing a speech, I see.
00:58:05Well, I'm not much of a speech giver.
00:58:07They're gonna eat you up, darling.
00:58:08They're gonna eat you up, darling.
00:58:09You make me feel so confident.
00:58:13I need to be looking at you when I give my speech.
00:58:16Of course.
00:58:25Okay, perfect.
00:58:26Well, I saw a fellow philanthropist outside.
00:58:29I must go speak with her.
00:58:30Ah, Valentina.
00:58:32I was thinking maybe tonight I could show you the AI code.
00:58:37Yes, I would love to see what you've been working on.
00:58:43Great.
00:58:45Would this be taking place?
00:58:46In the study or?
00:58:48Upstairs, hidden in a very high-tech safe.
00:58:52Ah, I see.
00:58:55You actually inspired my security team to create a new hiding space for it.
00:59:02What the heck did I say?
00:59:04I'll give you a hint.
00:59:05If you were to look for it, you'd be staring at the most beautiful thing in the world.
00:59:12I'll let you get back to socializing.
00:59:16Good luck, darling.
00:59:24What?
00:59:35Excuse me.
00:59:42What are you doing in here?
00:59:49Excuse me.
00:59:50What are you doing in here?
00:59:52Um...
00:59:53And who are you?
00:59:55Oh.
00:59:56Um...
00:59:57Um, I...
00:59:59I, um...
01:00:00You look lost.
01:00:03I am, darling.
01:00:05I am lost.
01:00:07I've been to a lot of mansions, but this one is big.
01:00:12Grandfather?
01:00:13Yes?
01:00:13This is Valentina Kingsley, Blaine's new girlfriend.
01:00:16Oh, yes, yes.
01:00:19From the, uh, front page of the, uh, the Times.
01:00:22Yes, I've heard a lot about you.
01:00:24I hope it was all good things.
01:00:26Well, I haven't seen him smile quite as much as he does now since his father passed.
01:00:32And I trust that Blaine is, uh, treating you, uh, respectfully, like a lady.
01:00:40He is.
01:00:41Well, it was a good thing that we were up here to find you.
01:00:44If it had been during Blaine's speech, no one would know you're here.
01:00:49Right.
01:00:50Good thing.
01:00:53Shall we return to the party?
01:00:55Yes, we shall.
01:00:57Very nice meeting you, Miss Kingsley.
01:01:00You too, sir.
01:01:02You seem quiet.
01:01:24Is everything all right?
01:01:26Everything's fine, darling.
01:01:28Hey, Valentina.
01:01:29Hannah, I have a girl question for you.
01:01:36Oh, my God, for the love of God.
01:01:38You clearly have a crush on Hannah.
01:01:40Just ask her to dance.
01:01:41You just met me, you can already tell?
01:01:44Yes.
01:01:46You read me like a book.
01:01:48I see what Blaine sees in you.
01:01:50You're really inquisitive.
01:01:51In fact, I'll go butter her up for you.
01:01:54Would you?
01:01:55That would be great.
01:01:58Dude.
01:02:02Hannah, I need a favor.
01:02:04Anything.
01:02:05When Blaine is giving his speech, I'm going to step away.
01:02:08If anyone asks, I'm not feeling well.
01:02:11And Ariel is going to help Valentina get some medicine.
01:02:15Got it.
01:02:16Oh, and Kurt's going to ask you to dance.
01:02:20Really?
01:02:22Sorry.
01:02:23When?
01:02:25Tonight.
01:02:26Oh, right.
01:02:26It's a ball.
01:02:27Yeah.
01:02:27It's time, brother.
01:02:43You ready?
01:02:43As ready as I'll ever be.
01:02:45All right.
01:02:49Thank you for coming tonight.
01:02:52It means a lot.
01:02:54Of course.
01:02:54You're going to be amazing.
01:03:03Ladies and gentlemen, I want to thank you all so much for coming out here tonight.
01:03:08It is my great honor and privilege to introduce my good friend, your CEO of Ellington Incorporated,
01:03:16Mr. Blaine Ellington.
01:03:17Good evening, everyone.
01:03:25I want to, before we get started, thank two people who, without their help, none of this
01:03:31would have happened tonight.
01:03:33My assistant Ariel and my girlfriend, Valentina.
01:03:36I'm not sure where they are right now, but I want to thank them for having my back.
01:03:51Hi, Ada.
01:03:52Oh, hi.
01:03:54You haven't seen Valentina around, have you?
01:03:57I wanted to try to find her so she can watch Blaine's speech.
01:04:00Valentina is sick, and Ariel was helping her get medicine.
01:04:06Oh, okay.
01:04:09Um, you look, you look really pretty, by the way.
01:04:13Thanks.
01:04:15You look really pretty, too.
01:04:18All right, time to find this code.
01:04:48Blaine mentioned something I said?
01:05:03What the heck did I say?
01:05:07The paintings.
01:05:09The paintings.
01:05:09So, tonight, I'm pledging $10 million to help research cures for illnesses and disorders
01:05:32unknown.
01:05:34Thank you all for coming.
01:05:35I hope to see.
01:05:36on the dance floor.
01:06:06I'm sorry, Mom.
01:06:27I failed you.
01:06:28Mom?
01:06:50I'm sorry.
01:06:50I'm sorry.
01:06:51I'm sorry.
01:06:51I'm sorry.
01:06:52I'll go.
01:06:53I'm sorry.
01:06:53I'll give you hints, if you were to look for it, you'd be staring at the most beautiful
01:07:04thing in the world.
01:07:06He wasn't talking about the painting, he was talking about me.
01:07:18There he is.
01:07:32I don't know.
01:08:02Okay.
01:08:06Think, Ariel.
01:08:23What could the numbers be?
01:08:24It couldn't be our first date, could it?
01:08:27I've got the code.
01:08:55Excellent, darling.
01:08:58I'll give it to you after the ball.
01:09:00Or you could give it to me now.
01:09:04Flora?
01:09:06What are you doing here?
01:09:10I have a way of being places I'm not supposed to be. Just like you, apparently.
01:09:19The code, darling.
01:09:25The future.
01:09:27In the palm of my hand.
01:09:30I was beginning to think you didn't have it in you.
01:09:34Blaine's a good man.
01:09:36You're awful.
01:09:38He's rich, darling.
01:09:39He'll get over it.
01:09:41My mom?
01:09:42And her surgery?
01:09:44I've been accused of many things.
01:09:47But I always keep my word.
01:09:49Now, go and celebrate.
01:09:51You deserve it, darling.
01:09:56Oh, yeah.
01:10:05I've been waiting for it.
01:10:09Balancina.
01:10:22Hi, darling.
01:10:23There you are.
01:10:25How are you feeling?
01:10:27Stronger than the reins in the Amazon, darling.
01:10:30Excellent.
01:10:31Care to dance?
01:10:32Certainly.
01:10:36Well, well, well.
01:10:39Well, look at the happy couple.
01:10:49How did you get in?
01:10:51Oh, I have my ways.
01:10:52We lied about our names on the guest list.
01:10:56Anyway, I just came here to congratulate you on your little event.
01:11:04You need to leave.
01:11:05Actually, I don't think I do.
01:11:07Because I don't think you know who your little girlfriend is.
01:11:11She's Valentina Kingsley.
01:11:12No, no, no.
01:11:14There is no Valentina Kingsley.
01:11:18What?
01:11:18If only your little assistant had assisted you in researching her.
01:11:24You know, it's funny.
01:11:25I haven't actually seen her all night.
01:11:29Lane, don't listen to him.
01:11:31What is he talking about?
01:11:34Yeah, she may have fooled everyone in here.
01:11:37But an ex-boyfriend never forgets a butt.
01:11:53Ariel?
01:11:54This whole time, you've been Valentina?
01:12:08That's right.
01:12:10This whole time, you pretended to care about me.
01:12:14But you're just a liar.
01:12:15And worse, she's poor.
01:12:19Why?
01:12:21Yes, Ariel.
01:12:22But why?
01:12:25I'm so sorry.
01:12:27Ariel.
01:12:27Ariel, wait.
01:12:29How embarrassing.
01:12:31You know, I looked into you.
01:12:37You're in so much debt that it's surprising that you can even rent the Lambo that you drove here.
01:12:42How preposterous.
01:12:44If anybody looks into that, it will be a complete waste of time.
01:12:48Ew.
01:12:49You're poor?
01:12:52Regina!
01:12:56Whew.
01:12:58You're my hero.
01:12:59Thanks.
01:13:01Sometimes I gotta just, gotta tell him, you know?
01:13:07Ariel!
01:13:18What are you smiling about?
01:13:20I mean, come on.
01:13:22This proves it, right?
01:13:23He's a joke.
01:13:25No, he is your brother, Martina.
01:13:27He's a liability, Richard.
01:13:30And you are giving him the company with the luxury of not having to deal with this shit show
01:13:34because you won't be alive much longer.
01:13:36Oh, well, don't bet on that.
01:13:38You know, you've got a lot of nerve talking to me like this, kid.
01:13:43You've got a lot of nerve letting this ship go down when the lifeboat is right in front of you.
01:13:47I should be running this company.
01:13:51Or is this what success looks like to you?
01:13:58Look, I'm not poor.
01:14:00What is that?
01:14:00I don't want to hear it.
01:14:01I do not want to hear it.
01:14:02I promise you.
01:14:03You lied to me.
01:14:04Not only did you lie to me, but you embarrassed me in there.
01:14:06No, I didn't.
01:14:06That is fair.
01:14:07I don't want to hear it.
01:14:38That was a disaster.
01:14:42I just don't understand.
01:14:45Why would she go through all of that?
01:14:48I don't know.
01:14:49But these scandals are exhausting.
01:14:53Yeah.
01:14:54I don't think I'll be dating anytime soon.
01:15:00Right.
01:15:03I've got a lot to think about.
01:15:04What do you mean?
01:15:07I mean, we may have to take the company in a complete different direction for it to gain back the public's trust.
01:15:14You can't be serious.
01:15:17Huh?
01:15:17Something better happen soon, or I guess much worse.
01:15:26Did she want anything from you?
01:15:29I don't know, Martina.
01:15:31Nothing valuable?
01:15:33Martina, I said I don't...
01:15:34No!
01:15:56No!
01:15:57No!
01:15:58ariel baby oh you look like you had a rough night it was a disaster really i feel awful

01:17:09It's time to celebrate.
01:17:32To the future, darling.
01:17:39Drink. You've worked much too hard not to revel in your victory.
01:17:48There it is.
01:17:49Doesn't our little prize look nice?
01:17:53People walk in and out of my office, having no idea what's in the room with them.
01:17:59Of course, I won't be able to enjoy too much longer, since my programmer is going to pick it up tonight.
01:18:05I guess I just feel bad.
01:18:07To get what you want in life, sometimes you have to do bold things.
01:18:12Break the rules a little.
01:18:16I guess.
01:18:18Ask any CEO, and they'll agree, including your little boy toy.
01:18:24Blaine would never do anything like that.
01:18:26Well, anyway, speaking of money, let's get that surgery paid for, shall we?
01:18:32What?
01:18:34All I need is your wiring info, and I can send it on over.
01:18:37I trust that the original estimate hasn't changed?
01:18:42I'm sorry, you haven't paid for the surgery yet?
01:18:46No, that's why we're here, isn't it?
01:18:52Darling!
01:18:52Are you clean?
01:18:53All right, one more drink and we'll start packing up my things.
01:19:23Deal, one more.
01:19:31Anna.
01:19:32Hi, Mr. Ellington. May I come in?
01:19:33Sure, come on in.
01:19:36Hi, cutie.
01:19:40Care for a drink?
01:19:41Oh, no. I stopped drinking on the job ages ago.
01:19:44Wait, what was that?
01:19:45Mr. Ellington, I have a delivery for you.
01:19:48From who?
01:19:49Ariel.
01:19:53I don't want it. Take it back.
01:19:59She said you might say that, but she said that it was very, very important.
01:20:04How important?
01:20:06I 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.
01:20:14Oh, my God.
01:20:30Oh, my God.
01:20:31Ew, what's happening?
01:20:33What's going on? What does this mean?
01:20:35Oh, Flora?
01:20:54Yes, darling.
01:20:56Your appointment had to leave early.
01:20:57I asked if they wanted to schedule, but they said no.
01:21:00I didn't have any appointments scheduled for today.
01:21:03What was the name?
01:21:07Valentina Kingsley?
01:21:08You're rich.
01:21:29You'll get over it.
01:21:31Darling.
01:21:31Darling.
01:21:31Oh, what's going on? What does this mean?
01:21:53Thank you for everything.
01:21:55Hannah, did you want to help me with that, uh, that one, the thing?
01:22:03Yes, yes, let's, uh, let's do that.
01:22:11Can you please get the hell out of my seat?
01:22:13Lane, there's no easy way for me to say this, but it's time.
01:22:33But it's time to celebrate.
01:22:41You are going to regret this.
01:22:48I promise you that.
01:22:53Jeez, what did you do?
01:22:56I don't know, girl, but the way she wears that dress, she can step on me any day.
01:23:03Let me see.
01:23:04I knew you could do it.
01:23:05I knew it.
01:23:06You know, your dad would be so proud of you.
01:23:11Dr. Westfall.
01:23:24Oh, hi, Ariel.
01:23:25Is surgery over?
01:23:26How did it go?
01:23:26Yes, we just finished.
01:23:28Um, there were complications.
01:23:30Complications?
01:23:30Yes, but we were able to work through them, and your mother's going to be just fine.
01:23:36Really?
01:23:37Yeah, really, yes.
01:23:38In fact, they're wheeling her back into her room right now.
01:23:41She'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.
01:23:47I can't thank you enough.
01:23:48I'm happy to help.
01:23:49I'm happy to help.
01:24:19Come in, come in.
01:24:33Welcome.
01:24:38Ariel.
01:24:40Mom, why don't you hang out of bed?
01:24:42The doctor said to stay in after surgery.
01:24:44I know, I know, but I saw this cute guy through the window, and I got kind of excited.
01:24:51Are you hungry, thirsty?
01:24:54No, thank you, but thank you.
01:24:55Oh, thank you.
01:24:57Sit down, make yourself comfortable.
01:24:59Mom, do you mind giving us some privacy?
01:25:02Oh, of course.
01:25:05Um, I'll just be right over here, don't mind me.
01:25:17I'm so, so sorry.
01:25:20I, uh, I understand why you did it.
01:25:25And you gave me the drive back, so there's no need to apologize.
01:25:29Thank you for everything.
01:25:32I don't even know where to start.
01:25:35I'm not looking for an apology.
01:25:40You're not?
01:25:42No.
01:25:43See, I'm still CEO, and I need an assistant.
01:25:48And you're kind of the best in town.
01:25:50I accept.
01:25:54And, uh, I'm still looking for a girlfriend.
01:26:01Well, if you're open to it, I'd love to apply.
01:26:06I love you, Valentina.
01:26:21I, I mean, Ariel.
01:26:24That's gonna take some getting used to.
01:26:28There aren't any starry rooftop views here.
01:26:31But this is my special place.
01:26:35It's even better.
01:26:36It's even better.
01:27:05It's even better.
