00:00:00.
00:00:30Hey, this is Richard Allenton. I can't answer the phone right now, so please leave a message.
00:00:48Hey, Grandpa.
00:00:52It's one thing to set me up on a bunch of blind dates with these goody-two-shoe women.
00:00:56But to trick me into thinking I'm coming to a business meeting that's actually a blind date, that's low.
00:01:07Let's hope this one's different.
00:01:10I don't even know what to say to this guy.
00:01:13We don't know how to talk to rich people.
00:01:16Be sexy.
00:01:17Darling, just act better than everyone else in the room.
00:01:21And being sexy is easy.
00:01:24Bite your lip, push up the girls.
00:01:26It works every time.
00:01:28Wait, but what girls?
00:01:29And don't forget, these rich men get bored easily.
00:01:33So challenge them, be bold, and put them on the spot.
00:01:37I don't think I can do this.
00:01:39The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner I pay you for your mother's surgery.
00:01:45It's your call.
00:01:46The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner I pay you for your life, the sooner I pay you for your life, the sooner I pay you for your life, the sooner I pay you for your life, the sooner I pay you for your life, the sooner I pay you for your life, the sooner I pay you for your life, the sooner I pay you for your life, the sooner I pay you for your life, the sooner I pay you for your life, the sooner I pay you for your life, the sooner I pay you for your life.
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.
00:02:34You're so...
00:02:35Rich? Sexy?
00:02:38Frankly, yes.
00:02:41Sorry, what was her name?
00:02:45Valentina Kingsley.
00:02:47And you are?
00:02:47Lane Ellington, CEO of Ellington Incorporated.
00:02:52Hmm. And 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.
00:03:09Uh, it's $60,000 per bottle, sir. You want two?
00:03:14Actually, I'm pretty thirsty.
00:03:16Better bring three.
00:03:19Yeah, right, yes, of course, right away, sir.
00:03:26And what do you do, Valentina Kingsley?
00:03:29I invest.
00:03:31In what?
00:03:32In everything.
00:03:36What 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.
00:03:48The hills.
00:03:51My yacht.
00:03:54My private island.
00:03:56I'm everywhere, darling.
00:03:58You're so impressive.
00:04:01So unlike the other girls I've seen.
00:04:04Hmm.
00:04:05Doesn't surprise me.
00:04:06I'm one of a kind, darling.
00:04:08You've got a little, uh...
00:04:26Kurt?
00:04:27Kurt?
00:04:28What's my manager doing here?
00:04:31Blaine!
00:04:32My business dinner just ended.
00:04:36The presentation for the China branch?
00:04:37Looking good.
00:04:38Amazing.
00:04:39You're the best, Kurt.
00:04:40Well, I just, uh, won't keep you two.
00:04:42I just wanted to say hi.
00:04:44Rose petals for a business dinner?
00:04:46Ended up being a blind date.
00:04:47Ah, classic.
00:04:49All right, well, you two have fun.
00:04:51I've got to be honest with you.
00:05:01You're so unlike any of the girls I've been with.
00:05:05Would you like to come to my place?
00:05:07I can take this chance to get closer to the AI code.
00:05:10Absolutely, darling.
00:05:18Whoa.
00:05:18Welcome to my home.
00:05:23After you.
00:05:38Oh, my.
00:05:48You like what you say?
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, a 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?
00:06:15Looking for something?
00:06:21Oh, um...
00:06:23Ah.
00:06:26I should have known that was your style.
00:06:30Oh, yes, darling.
00:06:33Ugh.
00:06:33I 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.
00:06:39Valentina?
00:06:46Patience, darling.
00:06:47I'm...
00:06:48Building the suspense.
00:06:50Ah, I see.
00:06:52Where could it be?
00:06:54Right.
00:06:54And...
00:06:55You say guys actually like this?
00:06:58Oh, yes.
00:06:58It's very popular with the manly men in France.
00:07:02How long does it take for something to actually happen?
00:07:12That's...
00:07:12That's new.
00:07:16The painting!
00:07:18Maybe there's a safe behind there.
00:07:19Oh, uh...
00:07:21Sorry, this painting caught my eye.
00:07:24It looks exactly like...
00:07:25The one in my mansion in Sweden.
00:07:29It's where I keep my safe.
00:07:31Huh.
00:07:32People actually still hide things behind paintings?
00:07:35Thought that was only in the movies.
00:07:38Uh, no.
00:07:38It's quite popular.
00:07:41Where do you hide your...
00:07:42Luxurious safekeepings?
00:07:45In a super...
00:07:47Super, super secret hiding place.
00:07:49Oh, come on.
00:07:53Now, why don't you come over here and...
00:07:55Get this thing started.
00:07:57Oh, uh...
00:07:57Most unfortunate.
00:07:59I'm...
00:07:59I'm getting the utmost important business call.
00:08:02And I must take it.
00:08:04Right now?
00:08:05What?
00:08:06What about me?
00:08:08Valentina!
00:08:11Wait!
00:08:13Untie me!
00:08:19Ew.
00:08:20Really, Blaine?
00:08:22What?
00:08:23But...
00:08:24You and your models.
00:08:25Last night was not a model.
00:08:29I was actually impressed.
00:08:31Did I hear it right?
00:08:34Blaine actually had a date he liked.
00:08:36It was fantastic.
00:08:38The other girls are so boring.
00:08:41But this one...
00:08:42She's a mystery I can't quite crack.
00:08:45I must see her again.
00:08:46Blaine, these dates aren't about you having sexy adventures.
00:08:50It's about you finding a wife you can settle down with and running the company.
00:08:57Grandfather.
00:08:58Hmm?
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.
00:09:08Mm-hmm.
00:09:09No, no, no, no, no.
00:09:11Look, you do great work right where you are.
00:09:13Right?
00:09:14Yeah, you were meant to be some CEO.
00:09:17No, but Blaine, when learning time?
00:09:21Whatever.
00:09:23Have fun with your little girlfriend, Blaine.
00:09:26I have actual work to attend to.
00:09:32Yeah, yeah.
00:09:33Thanks.
00:09:40Hello?
00:09:41How's our plan going, darling?
00:09:43To perfection, Charity 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.
00:10:09Hmm.
00:10:13What'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.
00:10:34How does he know my name?
00:10:36You dropped your badge.
00:10:36Here you go.
00:10:46Thanks.
00:10:53She's amazing.
00:10:57Are you getting hide-and-seek?
00:10:58Is that where you're late?
00:10:59Can I hide next?
00:11:00No, I was dropping my mom off at the hospital.
00:11:02Oh, 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.
00:11:25He's gorgeous.
00:11:37I wouldn't mind looking at that hunk of man all day.
00:11:42Attention, everyone.
00:11:43My name is Blaine, and I am the new CEO.
00:11:47I will try my best to live up to my father,
00:11:51but I ask for patience as I adjust to the new role.
00:11:54And since he is adjusting to this new role,
00:11:57I've decided to assign him a new assistant.
00:12:01Not me, not me, not me.
00:12:03Blaine, meet your new assistant, Ariel.
00:12:07All right, everyone, back to work.
00:12:13You look exactly like...
00:12:23Oh, my God, my cover's blown.
00:12:29Kurt described.
00:12:31Clean, organized desk, confident composure.
00:12:36There'd be a pay raise, of course.
00:12:37This could get me closer to finding the code.
00:12:42When do I start?
00:12:44Perfect.
00:12:44Uh, first thing I need help with is there's this file.
00:12:48Oh, uh, gotta take a phone call.
00:12:50Send it to me in an email.
00:12:55Ariel, he wants to meet you again.
00:12:58Really?
00:12:59Also, I got you a second number.
00:13:02Just click the link to connect it,
00:13:03so from now on, you're the one he'll be calling.
00:13:05Great.
00:13:13New number, huh?
00:13:18Hello?
00:13:19Hello, Ariel.
00:13:20This is Dr. Westphal.
00:13:21We just got your mother's results.
00:13:27It'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.
00:13:33Okay, I understand.
00:13:36I'll come up with the money for it soon.
00:13:49Oh, perfect timing.
00:13:51I 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.
00:14:03The doctor called.
00:14:14He says it's gotten worse.
00:14:16Shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:14:17Shh.
00:14:18None of that doc, okay?
00:14:20Mom, eat before your food gets cold.
00:14:23Hmm.
00:14:24I'll be right back.
00:14:39It's time for the second date, darling.
00:14:41Are you ready?
00:14:44Yeah.
00:14:47Mom, I have to leave for work.
00:14:49I'll make it to go.

00:45:14Did you get it?
00:45:19The code is in Blaine's mansion.
00:45:21Excellent, darling. Excellent.
00:45:44Max, what are you doing here?
00:45:50What the hell are you doing here, Ariel?
00:45:52Or should I say, Valentina Kingsley?
00:45:56You wouldn't understand.
00:45:57Oh, I understand.
00:45:59You're acting like somebody else to take advantage of your rich boss, hmm?
00:46:03No, I'm not. I...
00:46:05You know, I have the responsibility to tell your little hotshot boyfriend who you really are.
00:46:11But it's only the right thing to do.
00:46:15Please don't.
00:46:16You don't know what I'm doing.
00:46:17Oh, you lose your job?
00:46:19Your reputation?
00:46:21Oh, once word gets out, nobody will want you?
00:46:25What do you want, Max?
00:46:26I just want a little, an arrangement.
00:46:31I'd rather not.
00:46:32Ariel, you really do not want to make me angry.
00:46:37Did you just come here to hurt me?
00:46:39Oh, sweetheart, I don't want to hurt you.
00:46:43I want to destroy you.
00:46:46In 24 hours.
00:46:48To end this charade, on your own.
00:46:52If by tomorrow, I see little Valentina Kingsley running around town,
00:46:57I'll do it for you.
00:47:00You seem extra happy today.
00:47:18I 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.
00:47:27Hi, 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?
00:47:59I was thinking your house.
00:48:06I don't really like having people over at my house.
00:48:11Well, if we host it ourselves, it seems like a more intimate event.
00:48:17And then we could have it as soon as this weekend.
00:48:20Yeah, that makes sense.
00:48:23Okay, let's do it.
00:48:25Great.
00:48:25I'll send out the invitations.
00:48:31She really knows his company, inside and out.
00:48:34What do you know about Ariel?
00:48:38What do you want to know?
00:48:38Here you go, Mom.
00:48:54I'm sorry I couldn't stay awake for the movie.
00:48:57I'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.
00:49:07People your age, who you can be out dancing with.
00:49:12Flirting with boys.
00:49:15I actually kind of have met this one boy.
00:49:18What?
00:49:19What's he like?
00:49:21That's complicated.
00:49:23Honey, you just need to follow your heart.
00:49:26Yeah, he's kind of sweet.
00:49:28Sweetie, I'm fine.
00:49:39I just need some rest.
00:49:40And then after your speech, we're going to dance the night away.
00:50:03I am dreading giving this speech.
00:50:07I guess I'll just picture everyone wearing their underwear and I'll be fine, right?
00:50:11I always thought that was a little pervy, but...
00:50:13I promise, you're going to be amazing.
00:50:16Thank you so much for helping with this charity ball idea.
00:50:24It 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.
00:50:29Well, 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.
00:50:46Good night.
00:50:46Hello, darling.
00:51:00I just wanted to make sure the dress fit.
00:51:04It's perfect.
00:51:05I'm looking forward to tomorrow.
00:51:08I can't wait either, darling.
00:51:11Good night.
00:51:16Ariel, this place looks amazing.
00:51:35Thanks, Kurt.
00:51:37You're looking sharp.
00:51:38Oh, yeah.
00:51:39Well, got to dress to impress, you know?
00:51:42Are you trying to impress anyone?
00:51:45Nah.
00:51:46Listen, random.
00:51:49Does Hannah have a boyfriend?
00:51:52I don't think so.
00:51:55Do you like her?
00:51:56No.
00:51:57No, 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.
00:52:10Oh!
00:52:11You're still here.
00:52:13Yeah.
00:52:14Uh, listen.
00:52:14If someone were to ask Hannah to dance, what do you think the chances are that she would
00:52:23say yes?
00:52:25Probably good.
00:52:27Are you going to ask her to dance?
00:52:29No.
00:52:30No.
00:52:30No, no, no, no, no.
00:52:31No, I'm just, um, a fan of wild hypothetical scenarios.
00:52:37That one just sprung to mind.
00:52:40Mm-hmm.
00:52:41Okay.
00:52:43Yeah.
00:52:45Um, well, I'm going to go help Blaine practice his speech.
00:52:53So I'm going to do that right now.
00:52:56I will see you later.
00:52:58All right, see ya.
00:52:59And you must be Ariel.
00:53:06Yes, hi.
00:53:09Hmm.
00:53:10You know, my grandson has spoken very fondly of you.
00:53:14He has?
00:53:15Oh, yes, yes.
00:53:15In fact, he says that, well, this whole thing was your idea.
00:53:21I suppose so.
00:53:23Wonderful.
00:53:25Kind of reminds me of something Blaine's father would have done if he were in Blaine's situation.
00:53:31Wow, that's such an honor.
00:53:33I heard he was a great man.
00:53:35He was a great man.
00:53:38Martina.
00:53:39Have you had the pleasure of meeting Blaine's assistant, Ariel?
00:53:43Yes, briefly.
00:53:44She's really helped Blaine become quite an impressive CEO.
00:53:47Yes, 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, mm-hmm.
00:54:06Amazing.
00:54:07Well, I can't wait.
00:54:14Me either.
00:54:14Me either.
00:54:15Me either.
00:54:30I love you.
00:55:00Have 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.
00:55:17I better say hi to those guests, but if you could find her for me, that would be great.
00:55:22I'll get right on that.
00:55:24Bye.
00:55:30Just go out there and hype plane up so he can deliver his speech.
00:55:37Then we're back to finding the drive.
00:55:39Okay.
00:55:41You can do this.
00:55:42Oh, hi, Ariel.
00:55:48Uh, he must be mistaken, love. I don't know this Ariel to speak of.
00:55:55Yeah, okay. Ariel.
00:55:57No, seriously. My name is Valentina Kingsley, and I'm a very wealthy socialite.
00:56:04Oh, I get it. It's like one of those improv games or something.
00:56:09No, no, no. No game. My name is...
00:56:12Who else should I be?
00:56:13Just be yourself.
00:56:16I'm the Queen of England.
00:56:20You 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. Can I ask why?
00:56:35Uh, well, it's really complicated.
00:56:38Um, but you have to promise me you won't tell anybody about this.
00:56:43Can we make it a pinky promise?
00:56:45Yeah, sure.
00:56:47Aw.
00:56:48Well, good luck with whatever this is.
00:56:54Yeah, thanks. I'm gonna need it.
00:57:05Ah, there you are, darling.
00:57:20Ah, Valentina. I'm so glad to see you.
00:57:23Look at this place.
00:57:24I haven't seen a ball as elegant as this since the King of Spain's birthday.
00:57:28I'm glad it lives up to your approval.
00:57:30Of course.
00:57:31You're doing a speech, I see.
00:57:33Well, I'm not much of a speech giver.
00:57:36They're gonna eat you up, darling.
00:57:39You make me feel so confident.
00:57:42I need to be looking at you when I give my speech.
00:57:51Of course.
00:57:53Okay, perfect.
00:57:54Well, I saw a fellow philanthropist outside. I must go speak with her.
00:57:58Uh, Valentina, I was thinking maybe tonight I could show you the AI code.
00:58:07Yes. I would love to see what you've been working on.
00:58:11Great.
00:58:12Where would this be taking place? In the study or...?
00:58:15Upstairs, hidden 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.
00:58:37I'll let you get back to socializing.
00:58:43Good luck, darling.
00:58:46Excuse me.
00:59:09What are you doing in here?
00:59:10Excuse me.
00:59:17What are you doing in here?
00:59:19Um...
00:59:20And who are you?
00:59:22Oh, um, uh...
00:59:24Um, I, I, um...
00:59:27You look lost.
00:59:30I am, darling.
00:59:32I am lost.
00:59:34I've been to a lot of mansions, but this one is big.
00:59:39Grandfather.
00:59:39Yes?
00:59:40This is Valentina Kingsley, Blaine's new girlfriend.
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.
00:59:51I hope it was all good things.
00:59:53Well, I haven't seen him smile quite as much as he does now since his father passed.
01:00:00And I trust that Blaine is, uh, treating you respectfully, like a lady.
01:00:06She is.
01:00:07Well, it was a good thing that we were up here to find you.
01:00:11If it had been during Blaine's speech, no one would know you're here.
01:00:15Right.
01:00:17Good thing.
01:00:20Shall we return to the party?
01:00:22Yes, we shall.
01:00:24Very nice meeting you, Miss Kingsley.
01:00:27You too, sir.
01:00:27You seem quiet.
01:00:51Is everything all right?
01:00:51Everything's fine, darling.
01:00:54Hey, Valentina.
01:00:56I have a girl question for you.
01:00:58Oh, my God, for the love of God.
01:01:04You clearly have a crush on Hannah.
01:01:06Just ask her to dance.
01:01:08You just met me, 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.
01:01:22Tune.
01:01:28Hannah, I need a favor.
01:01:30Anything.
01:01:31When Blaine is giving his speech, I'm going to step away.
01:01:35If anyone asks, I'm not feeling well.
01:01:37And Ariel is going to help Valentina get some medicine.
01:01:41Got it.
01:01:44Oh, and Kurt's going to ask you to dance.
01:01:47Really?
01:01:48Sorry.
01:01:50When?
01:01:51Tonight.
01:01:51Oh, right.
01:01:53It's a ball.
01:02:14It's time, brother.
01:02:15You ready?
01:02:15As ready as I'll ever be.
01:02:21Thank you for coming tonight.
01:02:24It means a lot.
01:02:26Of 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,
01:02:48Mr. Blaine Ellington.
01:02:49Good evening, everyone.
01:02:56I want to, before we get started, thank two people who, without their help, none of this
01:03:03would have happened tonight.
01:03:05My assistant, Ariel, and my girlfriend, Valentina.
01:03:08I'm not sure where they are right now, but I want to thank them for having my back.
01:03:18Hi, 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.
01:03:38Mom, you look, you look really pretty, by the way.
01:03:45Thanks.
01:03:47You look really pretty, too.
01:04:08All right, time to find this code.
01:04:31Blaine mentioned something I said?
01:04:34What the heck did I say?
01:04:38This painting's good.
01:04:54So, tonight, I'm pledging $10 million to help research cures for illnesses and disorders unknown.
01:05:04Thank you all for coming.
01:05:06I hope to see you on the dance floor.
01:05:08I'm sorry, Mom.
01:05:30I killed you.
01:05:30Come on.
01:06:01I'll give you hints.
01:06:02If you were to look for it, you'd be staring at the most beautiful thing in the world.
01:06:10She wasn't talking about the painting.
01:06:14She was talking about me.
01:06:30She was talking about me.
01:07:00Okay.
01:07:11Think, Ariel.
01:07:12What could the numbers be?
01:07:25It couldn't be our first date, could it?
01:07:28I've got the code.
01:07:57Excellent, darling.
01:07:59I'll give it to you after the ball.
01:08:00Or you could give it to me now.
01:08:05Flora?
01:08:05What are you doing here?
01:08:12I have a way of being places I'm not supposed to be.
01:08:15Just like you, apparently.
01:08:16The code, darling.
01:08:24The future.
01:08:27In the palm of my hand.
01:08:29I was beginning to think you didn't have it in you.
01:08:34Lane's a good man.
01:08:36You're awful.
01:08:38He's rich, darling.
01:08:39He'll get over it.
01:08:41My mom?
01:08:42And her surgery?
01:08:43I've been accused of many things.
01:08:47But I always keep my word.
01:08:49Now, go and celebrate.
01:08:51You deserve it, darling.
01:08:52You deserve it, darling.
01:09:13Valentina, hi darling, there you are, how are you feeling, stronger than the rains in
01:09:26the Amazon darling, excellent, care to dance, certainly, well, well, well, well, look at
01:09:40the happy couple, how did you get in, oh, I have my ways, we lied about our names on the
01:09:51guest list, anyway, I just came here to congratulate you on your little events, you need to leave,
01:10:02actually, I don't think I do, because I don't think you know who your little girlfriend
01:10:07is, she's Valentina Kingsley, no, no, no, there is no Valentina Kingsley, what, if only your
01:10:16little assistant had assisted you in researching her, you know, it's funny, I haven't actually
01:10:23seen her all night, Lane, don't listen to him, what is he talking about, yeah, she may have
01:10:31fooled everyone in here, but an ex-boyfriend never forgets a butt,
01:10:38Ariel?
01:10:50Ariel?
01:10:51This whole time, you've been Valentina?
01:11:07That's right, this whole time, you pretended to care about me, but you're, she's just a liar,
01:11:14and worse, she's poor, why, yes, Ariel, but why?
01:11:24I'm so sorry, Ariel, Ariel, wait, how embarrassing, you know, I looked into you, you're in so much
01:11:37debt that it's surprising that you can even rent the Lambo that you drove here, how preposterous,
01:11:42if anybody looks into that, it will be a complete waste of time, ew, you're poor?
01:11:51Regina!
01:11:57You're my hero, thanks, sometimes I gotta just, gotta tell him, you know, Ariel!
01:12:12What are you smiling about?
01:12:18I mean, come on, this proves it, right?
01:12:21He's a joke.
01:12:24No, he's your brother, Martina.
01:12:26He's a liability, Richard, and you are giving him the company with the luxury of not having
01:12:31to deal with this shit show, because you won't be alive much longer.
01:12:34Oh, well, don't bet on that, you know, you've got a lot of nerve talking to me like this,
01:12:39kid.
01:12:41You've got a lot of nerve letting the ship go down when the lifeboat is right in front
01:12:45of you.
01:12:46I should be running this company, or is this what success looks like to you?
01:12:52Look, I'm, I'm not, I don't want to hear it, I do not want to hear it, you lied to me,
01:13:02not only did you lie to me, but you embarrassed me in there, that is fair.
01:13:12Regina!
01:13:13Regina!
01:13:13Regina!
01:13:22That 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
01:14:09back the public's trust.
01:14:12You can't be serious.
01:14:14Huh?
01:14:19Something better happen sooner.
01:14:20I guess much worse.
01:14:24Did she want anything from you?
01:14:27I don't know, Martina.
01:14:29Nothing valuable?
01:14:30Martina, I said I don't...
01:14:32No!
01:14:34I don't know.
01:14:35I don't know.
01:14:38I don't know.
01:14:38I don't know.
01:14:39I don't know.
01:14:40I think I can't be a good person.
01:14:41No!
01:14:42No!
01:14:43No!
01:14:43Ariel, baby, oh, you look like you had a rough night.
01:15:10It was a disaster, really.
01:15:14I feel awful.
01:15:16Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that, baby.
01:15:20Thanks, Mom.
01:15:22Well, I have something to tell you.
01:15:25Dr. Westfall calls.
01:15:27Are you okay? What's going on?
01:15:29He said that an anonymous donor sent in the funds for me to have my operation.
01:15:36What?
01:15:37I'm scheduled for surgery on Tuesday.
01:15:39Oh, my God.
01:15:40Mom, I'm so happy.
01:15:46I think this calls for my famous chocolate cake.
01:15:50I agree.
01:15:51I agree.
01:15:51I agree.
01:16:01I agree.
01:16:02It's time to celebrate.
01:16:26To the future, darling.
01:16:38Drink.
01:16:39You've worked much too hard not to revel in your victory.
01:16:41There it is.
01:16:47Doesn't our little prize look nice?
01:16:50People walk in and out of my office, having no idea what's in the room with them.
01:16:55Of course, I won't be able to enjoy it too much longer, since my programmer is going to pick it up tonight.
01:17:03I guess I just feel bad.
01:17:05To get what you want in life, sometimes you have to do bold things, break the rules a little, I guess.
01:17:15Ask any CEO, and they'll agree, including your little boy toy.
01:17:21Blaine would never do anything like that.
01:17:23Well, anyway, speaking of money, let's get that surgery paid for, shall we?
01:17:31What?
01:17:31All I need is your wiring info, and I can send it on over.
01:17:35I trust that the original estimate hasn't changed.
01:17:40I'm sorry, you haven't paid for the surgery yet?
01:17:44No, that's why we're here, isn't it?
01:17:50Marlene!
01:18:01All right.
01:18:17One more drink, and we'll start packing up my things.
01:18:21Deal, one more.
01:18:28Anna.
01:18:29Hi, Mr. Wellington. May I come in?
01:18:30Sure, come on in.
01:18:32Hi, cutie.
01:18:37Care for a drink?
01:18:38Oh, no. I stopped drinking on the job ages ago.
01:18:41Wait, what was that?
01:18:42Mr. Wellington, I have a delivery for you.
01:18:45From who?
01:18:46Ariel.
01:18:52From who?
01:18:53Ariel.
01:18:55I don't want it. Take it back.
01:18:56She said you might say that, but she said that it was very, very important.
01:19:02How important?
01:19:04I don't know, but she did say that it was something so important that she only trusted me to deliver it, so it must be a big deal.
01:19:11Oh.
01:19:11Oh, my God.
01:19:28Oh, my God.
01:19:29Ew!
01:19:30What's happening?
01:19:31What's going on?
01:19:32What does this mean?
01:19:33Oh, Flora?
01:19:52Yes, darling.
01:19:53Uh, your appointment had to leave early.
01:19:55I asked if they wanted to schedule, but they said no.
01:19:57I didn't have any appointments scheduled for today.
01:20:01What was the name?
01:20:05Valentina Kingsley?
01:20:06You're rich.
01:20:27You'll get over it, darling.
01:20:29Darling.
01:20:29Darling.
01:20:36Oh, what's going on?
01:20:45What does this mean?
01:20:51Thank you for everything.
01:20:58Hannah, did you want to help me with that, uh, that one thing?
01:21:01Yes, yes.
01:21:02Let's, uh.
01:21:03Let's do that.
01:21:06Can you please get the hell out of my seat?
01:21:16Lane, there's no easy way for me to say this.
01:21:22But it's time.
01:21:32But it's time.
01:21:36You are going to regret this.
01:21:46I promise you that.
01:21:52Jeez.
01:21:53What did you do?
01:21:54I don't know, girl.
01:21:55But the way she wears that dress, she can step on me any day.
01:22:00Let me see.
01:22:02I knew you could do it.
01:22:03I knew it.
01:22:05You know.
01:22:08Your dad would be so proud of you.
01:22:21Dr. Westfall.
01:22:22Um, hi, Ariel.
01:22:23Is surgery over?
01:22:24How did it go?
01:22:24Yes, we just finished.
01:22:26Um, there were complications.
01:22:28Complications?
01:22:29Yes, but we were able to work through them, and your mother's going to be just fine.
01:22:34Really?
01:22:35Yeah, really, yes.
01:22:36In fact, they're wheeling her back into her room right now.
01:22:39She's going to need to rest for a few hours, but when she wakes up, she's going to feel better than she has in a long time.
01:22:45I can't thank you enough.
01:22:46I'm happy to help.
01:23:16Come in, come in.
01:23:31Welcome.
01:23:36Ariel.
01:23:38Mom, why didn't you leave me out of bed?
01:23:40The doctor said to stay in after surgery.
01:23:42I know, I know, but I saw this cute guy through the window, and I got kind of excited.
01:23:49Are you hungry, thirsty?
01:23:52No, thank you, but thank you.
01:23:53Oh, thank you.
01:23:55Sit down, make yourself comfortable.
01:23:57Mom, do you mind giving us some privacy?
01:24:00Oh, of course.
01:24:04I'll just be right over here, don't mind me.
01:24:06I'm so, so sorry.
01:24:18I, uh, I understand why you did it.
01:24:23And you gave me the drive back, so there's no need to apologize.
01:24:27Thank you for everything.
01:24:30I don't even know where to start.
01:24:35I'm not looking for an apology.
01:24:39You're not?
01:24:40No.
01:24:42See, I'm still CEO, and I need an assistant.
01:24:46And you're kind of the best in town.
01:24:51I accept.
01:24:52And, uh, I'm still looking for a girlfriend.
01:25:00Well, if you're open to it, I'd love to apply.
01:25:05I love you, Valentina.
01:25:20I mean, Ariel.
01:25:22That's gonna take some getting used to.
01:25:26There aren't any starry rooftop views here.
01:25:29But this is my special place.
01:25:33It's even better.
01:25:36Um.
