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

00:46:26I just want a little, an arrangement.
00:46:31I'd rather not.
00:46:32Ariel, you really do not want to make me angry.
00:46:37Did you just come here to hurt me?
00:46:40Oh, sweetheart, I don't want to hurt you.
00:46:42I want to destroy you.
00:46:46You have 24 hours to end this charade on your own.
00:46:51If by tomorrow I see little Valentina Kingsley running around town,
00:46:57I'll do it for you.
00:47:00You seem extra happy today.
00:47:17I feel like Valentina and I, we got on a whole nother level last night.
00:47:22Wow, that's awesome, man.
00:47:24I'm so happy for you.
00:47:26Hi, Mr. Ellington.
00:47:27Hi, Kurt.
00:47:28Hi, Anna.
00:47:29Yeah, I feel like she's the one, Kurt.
00:47:33Kurt?
00:47:35Sorry, what were we talking about?
00:47:40Hi, Ariel.
00:47:42You all right?
00:47:43Yeah, I'm all right.
00:47:45Um, I actually had an idea about the Cherry Bowl.
00:47:50While we keep reaching out to all of these extravagant venues for their availability,
00:47:55I was thinking we could host it ourselves.
00:47:59Where?
00:48:00I was thinking your house.
00:48:02Uh, I don't really like having people over at my house.
00:48:11Well, if we hosted ourselves, it seems like a more intimate event.
00:48:17And then we could have it as soon as this weekend.
00:48:20Yeah, that makes sense.
00:48:23Okay, let's do it.
00:48:25Great.
00:48:26I'll send out the invitations.
00:48:27She really knows his company, inside and out.
00:48:34What do you know about Ariel?
00:48:37What do you want to know?
00:48:52Here you go, Mom.
00:48:54I'm sorry I couldn't stay awake for the movie.
00:48:56Hey, I'm just so sleepy.
00:48:58That's okay.
00:48:59We can watch it next weekend.
00:49:02Sweetie, you should be going out with your friends on a Saturday night.
00:49:06Mom, you are my friend.
00:49:08People your age.
00:49:10Who you can be out dancing with.
00:49:12Flirting with boys.
00:49:15I actually kind of have met this one boy.
00:49:18What?
00:49:19What's he like?
00:49:21It's complicated.
00:49:23Honey, you just need to follow your heart.
00:49:26Yeah, he's kind of sweet.
00:49:36Sweetie, I'm fine.
00:49:39I just need some rest.
00:49:40And then after your speech, we're going to dance the night away.
00:50:03I'm dreading giving this speech.
00:50:07I guess I'll just picture everyone wearing their underwear and I'll be fine, right?
00:50:10I always thought that was a little pervy, but...
00:50:13I promise.
00:50:16You're going to be amazing.
00:50:16Thank you so much for helping with this charity ball idea.
00:50:23It was genius.
00:50:25I need to make it up to you at some point.
00:50:28I was just doing my job, Mr. Ellington.
00:50:33Well, I should get going.
00:50:35Wait, um...
00:50:37I should probably call Valentina, right?
00:50:39Make sure the dress fits.
00:50:42I'm sure she'd appreciate that.
00:50:44All right.
00:50:45Good night.
00:50:46Hello, darling.
00:51:00I just wanted to make sure the dress fit.
00:51:04It's perfect.
00:51:05I'm looking forward to tomorrow.
00:51:08I can't wait either, darling.
00:51:10Good night.
00:51:11Good night.
00:51:11Good night.
00:51:12Good night.
00:51:13Good night.
00:51:14Good night.
00:51:15Good night.
00:51:16Good night.
00:51:32Ariel, this place looks amazing.
00:51:35Thanks, Kurt.
00:51:36You're looking sharp.
00:51:38Oh, yeah.
00:51:39Well, got to dress to impress, you know?
00:51:42Are you trying to impress anyone?
00:51:45Nah.
00:51:45Listen, random.
00:51:49Does Hannah have a boyfriend?
00:51:52I don't think so.
00:51:54Do you like her?
00:51:56No.
00:51:57No, no, no, no.
00:51:59No, I'm just trying to make friendly conversation.
00:52:03Yeah.
00:52:05We need more balloons in the dining room.
00:52:07Oh, you're still here.
00:52:08Oh, you're still here.
00:52:13Yeah.
00:52:14Uh, listen.
00:52:16If someone were to ask Hannah to dance, what do you think the chances are that she would
00:52:22say yes?
00:52:25Probably good.
00:52:27Are you going to ask her to dance?
00:52:29No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:52:31No, I'm just, um, a fan of, of wild hypothetical scenarios.
00:52:37That one just sprung to mind.
00:52:40Mm-hmm.
00:52:40Okay.
00:52:41Um, well, I, I'm going to go help Blaine practice his speech.
00:52:53So, I'm going to do that right now.
00:52:56I will see you later.
00:52:58All right, see ya.
00:53:01And you must be Ariel.
00:53:02Yes, hi.
00:53:09Hmm.
00:53:10You know, my grandson has spoken very fondly of you.
00:53:14He has?
00:53:14Oh, yes, yes.
00:53:15In fact, he says that, well, this whole thing was your idea.
00:53:21I suppose so.
00:53:23Wonderful.
00:53:25Kind of reminds me of something Blaine's father would have done if he were in Blaine's situation.
00:53:30Wow, that's such an honor.
00:53:32I heard he was a great man.
00:53:35He was a great man.
00:53:37Martina.
00:53:39Have you had the pleasure of meeting Blaine's assistant, Ariel?
00:53:43Yes, briefly.
00:53:44She's really helped Blaine become quite an impressive CEO.
00:53:47Yes, yes, she has.
00:53:49In fact, I can, uh, I can see her playing a bigger role than Ellington if she keeps it up.
00:53:55Why wait?
00:53:56She could be a part of something huge tonight.
00:53:59Really?
00:54:00I think so.
00:54:01Don't you, Ariel?
00:54:03Uh, uh-huh.
00:54:06Amazing.
00:54:07Well, I can't wait.
00:54:14Me either.
00:54:14I can't wait.
00:54:15I can't wait.
00:54:19Oh, my God.
00:54:49Jesus.
00:54:53Ariel.
00:54:55Lane.
00:54:56There you are. I've been looking everywhere for you.
00:54:58Here I am.
00:54:59Have you seen Valentina?
00:55:02No, I don't think so.
00:55:04About your height, flowy hair, no glasses?
00:55:07Um, no. No, I don't think so.
00:55:11In fact...
00:55:12What?
00:55:14Nothing. It's ridiculous.
00:55:15I better say hi to those guests, but if you could find her for me, that would be great.
00:55:22I'll get right on that.
00:55:23Thank you. Bye.
00:55:24Just go out there and hype Lane up so he can deliver his speech.
00:55:37Then we're back to finding the drive.
00:55:39Okay.
00:55:41He can do this.
00:55:42Oh, hi, Ariel.
00:55:48Uh, you must be mistaken, love.
00:55:51I don't know this Ariel you speak of.
00:55:55Yeah, okay.
00:55:56Ariel.
00:55:57No, seriously.
00:56:00My name is Valentina Kingsley, and I'm a very wealthy socialite.
00:56:04Oh, I get it.
00:56:05It's like one of those improv games or something.
00:56:09No, no, no. No game.
00:56:11My name is...
00:56:12Who else should I be?
00:56:14Just be yourself.
00:56:16I'm the Queen of England.
00:56:18You can really tell it's me?
00:56:22Well, yeah.
00:56:23But, I mean, I can be very observant.
00:56:27Really?
00:56:28Mm-hmm.
00:56:29Okay, well, Hannah, it's very important that this stays between us.
00:56:33Okay.
00:56:34Can I ask why?
00:56:36Well, it's really complicated.
00:56:38Um, but you have to promise me you won't tell anybody about this.
00:56:42Can we make it a pinky promise?
00:56:45Yeah, sure.
00:56:47Aw.
00:56:48Well, good luck with whatever this is.
00:56:54Yeah, thanks.
00:56:56I'm gonna need it.
00:56:57Aw.
00:57:18Ah, there you are, darling.
00:57:20Ah, Valentina.
00:57:21I'm so glad to see you.
00:57:23Look at this place.
00:57:24I haven't seen a ball as elegant as this since the King of Spain's birthday.
00:57:28I'm glad it lives up to your approval.
00:57:30Of course.
00:57:31You're doing a speech, I see.
00:57:33Well, I'm not much of a speech giver.
00:57:35They're gonna eat you up, darling.
00:57:39You make me feel so confident.
00:57:42I need to be looking at you when I give my speech.
00:57:44Of course.
00:57:51Okay, perfect.
00:57:53Well, I saw a fellow philanthropist outside.
00:57:57I must go speak with her.
00:57:58Uh, Valentina, I was thinking maybe tonight I could show you the AI code.
00:58:05Yes, I would love to see what you've been working on.
00:58:11Great.
00:58:11Where would this be taking place?
00:58:14In the study, or?
00:58:16Upstairs.
00:58:17Hidden in a very high-tech safe.
00:58:20Ah, I see.
00:58:22You actually inspired my security team to create a new hiding space for it.
00:58:29What the heck did I say?
00:58:31I'll give you hints.
00:58:33If you were to look for it, you'd be staring at the most beautiful thing in the world.
00:58:39I'll let you get back to socializing.
00:58:41Good luck, darling.
00:59:08Excuse me.
00:59:09What are you doing in here?
00:59:11Excuse me.
00:59:17What are you doing in here?
00:59:19Um.
00:59:20And who are you?
00:59:22Oh.
00:59:23Um.
00:59:23Uh.
00:59:25Um.
00:59:25I.
00:59:26I, um.
00:59:27You look lost.
00:59:30I am, darling.
00:59:32I am lost.
00:59:33I've been to a lot of mansions, but this one is big.
00:59:37Grandfather.
00:59:39Yes?
00:59:40This is Valentina Kingsley, Blaine's new girlfriend.
00:59:43Oh, yes, yes.
00:59:45Oh, yes, yes.
00:59:46From the, uh, front page of the, the Times.
00:59:49Yes, I've heard a lot about you.
00:59:50I hope it was all good things.
00:59:52Well, I haven't seen him smile quite as much as he does now since his father passed.
00:59:59And I trust that Blaine is, uh, treating you respectfully, like a lady.
01:00:06She is.
01:00:08Well, it was a good thing that we were up here to find you.
01:00:10If it had been during Blaine's speech, no one would know you're here.
01:00:16Right.
01:00:17Good thing.
01:00:19Shall we return to the party?
01:00:22Yes, we shall.
01:00:24Very nice meeting you, Miss Kingsley.
01:00:25You, too, sir.
01:00:48You seem quiet.
01:00:51Is everything all right?
01:00:52Everything's fine, darling.
01:00:53Hey, Valentina, I have a girl question for you.
01:01:02Oh, my God, for the love I've got.
01:01:04You clearly have a crush on Hannah.
01:01:06Just ask her to dance.
01:01:08You just met me, you can already tell.
01:01:10Yes.
01:01:12You read me like a book.
01:01:14I see what Blaine sees in you.
01:01:16You're really inquisitive.
01:01:18In fact, I'll go butter her up for you.
01:01:20Would you?
01:01:21That would be great.
01:01:24Tune.
01:01:28Hannah, I need a favor.
01:01:30Anything.
01:01:31When Blaine is giving his speech, I'm going to step away.
01:01:34If anyone asks, I'm not feeling well.
01:01:37And Ariel is going to help Valentina get some medicine.
01:01:41Got it.
01:01:44Oh, and Kurt's going to ask you to dance.
01:01:47Really?
01:01:47Sorry.
01:01:48Sorry.
01:01:50When?
01:01:51Tonight.
01:01:52Oh, right.
01:01:52It's a ball.
01:01:53Oh.
01:01:53It's time, brother.
01:02:15You ready?
01:02:15As ready as I'll ever be.
01:02:16Thank you for coming tonight.
01:02:24It means a lot.
01:02:25Of course.
01:02:27You're going to be amazing.
01:02:35Ladies and gentlemen, I want to thank you all so much for coming out here tonight.
01:02:39It is my great honor and privilege to introduce my good friend, your CEO of Ellington Incorporated, Mr. Blaine Ellington.
01:02:49Good evening, everyone.
01:02:57I want to, before we get started, thank two people who, without their help, none of this would have happened tonight.
01:03:05My assistant Ariel and my girlfriend, Valentina.
01:03:12Not sure where they are right now, but I want to thank them for having my back.
01:03:19Hi, Anna.
01:03:24Oh, hi.
01:03:26You haven't seen Valentina around, have you?
01:03:29I wanted to try to find her so she can watch Blaine's speech.
01:03:33Valentina is sick, and Ariel was helping her get medicine.
01:03:38Oh, okay.
01:03:41Um, you look, you look really pretty, by the way.
01:03:45Thanks.
01:03:46You look really pretty, too.
01:03:50All right, time to find this code.
01:04:12Blaine mentioned something I said?
01:04:34What the heck did I say?
01:04:38The paintings.
01:04:40So, tonight, I'm pledging $10 million to help research cures for illnesses and disorders unknown.
01:05:03Thank you, honey.
01:05:04Thank you all for coming.
01:05:05I hope to see you on the dance floor.
01:05:07I'm sorry, Mom.
01:05:29I failed you.
01:05:40No.
01:05:49I'll give you hints
01:06:02If you were to look for it
01:06:04You'd be seeing it the most beautiful thing in the world
01:06:06He wasn't talking about the painting
01:06:11He was talking about me
01:06:19He was talking about me
01:06:49Okay
01:07:06Think Ariel
01:07:11What could the numbers be?
01:07:25It couldn't be our first date
01:07:27Could it?
01:07:28I've got the code
01:07:56Excellent darling
01:07:58I'll give it to you after the ball
01:08:00Or you could give it to me now
01:08:02Flora
01:08:05What are you doing here?
01:08:12I have a way of being places I'm not supposed to be
01:08:14Just like you apparently
01:08:16The code darling
01:08:20The future
01:08:25In the palm of my hand
01:08:29I was beginning to think you didn't have it in you
01:08:32Link's a good man
01:08:34You're awful
01:08:37He's rich darling
01:08:39He'll get over it
01:08:40My mom
01:08:41And her surgery
01:08:43I've been accused of many things
01:08:46But I always keep my word
01:08:48Now
01:08:50Go and celebrate
01:08:51You deserve it darling
01:08:52Go and celebrate
01:08:53You deserve it darling
01:08:55How are you feeling?
01:09:10Valentina
01:09:20Hi darling
01:09:21There you are
01:09:21How are you feeling?
01:09:25Stronger than the rains in the Amazon darling
01:09:27Excellent
01:09:28Care to dance?
01:09:30Certainly
01:09:31Well
01:09:34Well
01:09:34Well
01:09:35Well
01:09:36Well
01:09:37Look at the happy couple
01:09:41How did you get in?
01:09:47Oh I have my ways
01:09:48We lied
01:09:49About our names on the guest list
01:09:51Anyway
01:09:53I just came here to congratulate you
01:09:58On your little events
01:09:59You need to leave
01:10:01Actually I don't think I do
01:10:03Because I don't think you
01:10:05Know who your little girlfriend is
01:10:07She's Valentina Kingsley
01:10:09No
01:10:09No
01:10:09No
01:10:10There is
01:10:12No Valentina Kingsley
01:10:14What?
01:10:16If only your little assistant
01:10:17Had assisted you
01:10:19In researching her
01:10:21You know it's funny
01:10:21I haven't actually seen her
01:10:23All night
01:10:25Lane
01:10:26Don't listen to him
01:10:27What is he talking about?
01:10:29Yes she may have fooled
01:10:32Everyone
01:10:32In here
01:10:34But an ex-boyfriend
01:10:36Never
01:10:37Forgets a butt
01:10:38Ariel?
01:10:50Ariel?
01:10:50Ariel?
01:10:51Ariel?
01:10:59This whole time
01:11:05You've been Valentina?
01:11:07That's right
01:11:08This whole time
01:11:09You pretended to care about me
01:11:12But you're
01:11:13Just a liar
01:11:14And worse
01:11:15She's poor
01:11:17Why?
01:11:20Yes Ariel
01:11:20But why?
01:11:23I'm so sorry
01:11:25Ariel
01:11:26Ariel wait
01:11:27How embarrassing
01:11:30You know
01:11:33I looked into you
01:11:35You're in so much debt
01:11:37That it's surprising
01:11:38That you can even rent
01:11:39The Lambo that you drove here
01:11:41How preposterous
01:11:42If anybody looks into that
01:11:44It will be a complete waste of time
01:11:46Ew
01:11:47You're poor
01:11:49You're poor
01:11:49Regina
01:11:52You're my hero
01:11:58Thanks
01:11:59Sometimes I just
01:12:00Gotta tell him
01:12:01No
01:12:02Ariel
01:12:07What are you smiling about
01:12:17I mean come on
01:12:19This proves it right
01:12:21He's a joke
01:12:22No
01:12:24He's your brother
01:12:25Martina
01:12:26He's a liability
01:12:27Richard
01:12:28And you are giving him
01:12:29The company
01:12:30With the luxury
01:12:30Of not having to deal
01:12:31With this shit show
01:12:32Because you won't be alive
01:12:33Much longer
01:12:34Oh
01:12:34I don't bet on that
01:12:36You know you've got a lot of nerve
01:12:38Talking to me like this kid
01:12:39You've got a lot of nerve
01:12:42Letting this ship go down
01:12:44When the lifeboat
01:12:44Is right in front of you
01:12:45I should be running this company
01:12:48Or
01:12:49Is this what success looks like to you?
01:12:56Look
01:12:56I'm not
01:12:58I don't hear it
01:12:59I do not want to hear it
01:13:01You lied to me
01:13:02Not only did you lie to me
01:13:03But you embarrassed me
01:13:04That's not what you're saying
01:13:05That is there
01:13:06Regina
01:13:08Regina
01:13:12Regina
01:13:14That was a disaster.
01:13:40I just don't understand.
01:13:43Why would she go through all that?
01:13:45I don't know, but these scandals are exhausting.
01:13:51Yeah.
01:13:52I don't think I'll be dating anytime soon.
01:13:58Right.
01:14:01I got a lot to think about.
01:14:03What do you mean?
01:14:05I mean, we may have to take the company in a complete different direction for it to gain back the public's trust.
01:14:12You can't be serious.
01:14:14Well, something better happen soon or it gets much worse.
01:14:22Did she want anything from you?
01:14:27I don't know, Martina.
01:14:29Nothing valuable?

01:17:06To get what you want in life, sometimes you have to do bold things.
01:17:10Break the rules a little.
01:17:14I guess.
01:17:15Ask any CEO, and they'll agree, including your little boy toy.
01:17:22Blaine would never do anything like that.
