00:00:37Ow!

00:00:42She said she's not interested, bro!
00:00:45Rick Brody.
00:00:46Oh, you always gotta play the hero, huh?
00:00:48Yeah, go ahead.
00:00:49You're one demerit away from getting thrown out of this school.
00:00:52You want your book back so bad?
00:00:54Alright.
00:00:55You take it.
00:00:58No, this is gonna cost a fortune to replace.
00:01:12You can have mine.
00:01:14No, I couldn't.
00:01:16Yeah, you could. I've seen you in class. You are brilliant.
00:01:20I'm gonna get way more use out of this than I ever would.
00:01:32You wanna...
00:01:34Grab lunch?
00:01:36Or...
00:01:37Keep studying?
00:01:38Um...
00:01:39Yeah.
00:01:40Yeah.
00:01:41Yeah.
00:01:42Grab lunch.
00:01:43We're doing great.
00:01:50When did you two get back from the honeymoon?
00:01:52Just an hour ago.
00:01:53And...
00:01:54This was waiting for me when I got back.
00:01:56I got in, Daddy!
00:01:58The Young Architects Program in Paris.
00:02:00It's a dream come true!
00:02:02Huh.
00:02:03And...
00:02:04When we get back...
00:02:05We're gonna rebuild this town.
00:02:08Together.
00:02:10This town is dying.
00:02:11And I want my daughter as far away from it as possible.
00:02:13Uh...
00:02:14But...
00:02:15Sir...
00:02:16We have a plan.
00:02:17We even applied to adopt a child.
00:02:19Even more reason to end this now before you keep her trapped here forever.
00:02:23I promised Hallie's mother before she passed away that I would take care of our daughter.
00:02:39She deserves more than this two bit town.
00:02:44And quite frankly, she deserves more than you.
00:02:47But, Sir, I love her...
00:02:48More than anything.
00:02:49More than anything, I promise, I will always take care of her.
00:02:53And you think that's important?
00:02:56She's going to be a world-class architect.
00:03:00You, you're a local boy with a hammer.
00:03:03If you truly loved her, you'd let her go.
00:03:07Let her make something of herself!
00:03:09Deep down, you know I'm right.
00:03:12Here.
00:03:17This should be enough.
00:03:19I want her on that plane alone.
00:03:26I want her on that plane alone.
00:03:32For Mr. and Mrs. Craig Brody.
00:03:35We just got married.
00:03:37I got into an architecture program at Paris, and my new husband is coming with me.
00:03:42Actually, I'm not coming with you, Allie.
00:03:45What? Why?
00:03:46You think I want to just sit around while you study crumbling buildings?
00:03:51You're never going to be a real architect.
00:03:53The world is going to chew you up and spit you out, and it's going to be too pathetic for me to watch.
00:04:00Um, what, but, no, what about our plans?
00:04:07We were trying to start a family together.
00:04:09No, the last person I'd want to start a family with is you, Allie.
00:04:14I want a divorce.
00:04:15No, no, no, but where is this coming from?
00:04:21Hi, Craig baby.
00:04:23Are you seeing Trista now?
00:04:25Yeah, just, just send me the divorce papers, okay?
00:04:29Craig, no, what?
00:04:31I thought you believed in me.
00:04:37Ma'am, boarding is closing.
00:04:38Are you coming or not?
00:04:43Ma'am, boarding is closing.
00:04:44Are you coming or not?
00:04:48Yes, but I'd like to change my ticket to one way.
00:04:50Miss Filtner!
00:04:59Miss Filtner, you were just recognized as Time Magazine's top CEO to watch,
00:05:03and your company is taking the New York architecture scene by storm.
00:05:07What's next for you?
00:05:08Um, I don't know.
00:05:10Taking over the world?
00:05:11Well, you and your boyfriend, billionaire politician Ned Vogel, are quite the power couple.
00:05:16He must be so proud.
00:05:18I'm not doing any of this for a man's approval.
00:05:20Well, word on the street is, he's planning on proposing.
00:05:23You must be the luckiest girl in the world.
00:05:27The luckiest girl in the world?
00:05:29Right.
00:05:30Miss Filtner, I...
00:05:32Oh, my God.
00:05:42Allie Bildner, you are the most impressive woman I've ever met.
00:05:53You are my soulmate.
00:05:55Will you marry me?
00:06:10Will you marry me?
00:06:12Allie, Bildner, I love you more than anything.
00:06:15You are my soulmate, and the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:06:18Will you make me the luckiest man in the world, and marry me?
00:06:21Allie, Allie, Allie, you're really leaving me to sweat here, and this suit is way too expensive
00:06:30for that.
00:06:31The most eligible bachelor in the country is proposing to me, so why am I thinking about
00:06:36Craig?
00:06:36He was a jerk and a liar, and I need to move on with my life.
00:06:40Of course, I'll marry you.
00:06:53This ring must have cost a fortune.
00:06:56You're so lucky.
00:06:58When's the wedding?
00:07:00Ned wants to get married as soon as possible.
00:07:03Oh, you know, Allie would love a hot tea.
00:07:08We have a problem.
00:07:09And that is?
00:07:11You're already married to a Craig Brody.
00:07:19He never signed the divorce papers?
00:07:24So you're still married?
00:07:26He was my high school sweetheart.
00:07:29We got married, but it didn't work out.
00:07:33I thought he had signed the divorce papers.
00:07:35You thought?
00:07:36Yes.
00:07:36Allie, the election is in six weeks.
00:07:39This could ruin my campaign.
00:07:41Just imagine the headlines.
00:07:42Senator's fiancee, already a wife?
00:07:44Aye.
00:07:45We'll get him to sign the papers.
00:07:46You better.
00:07:48Or there won't be a future for us, Allie.
00:07:52I gotta take this.
00:07:54It's my campaign manager.
00:07:55But this is important.
00:07:57Yeah, so is this.
00:07:58Clarence, what's going on, buddy?
00:08:03Talk to me.
00:08:08Motherfucker.
00:08:09I never thought I'd hear from you again, hon.
00:08:34Thanks for meeting me here, Trista.
00:08:35So, you really ended it with her.
00:08:40What does it look like?
00:08:42Yeah.
00:08:44She's really gone.
00:08:46Good.
00:08:47So, there's this romantic movie playing at Cinema 6.
00:08:50I thought me and you can go and watch and we can cuddle.
00:08:53We're not going anywhere together, Trista.
00:08:56My heart still belongs to Allie.
00:08:59And it always will.
00:09:02I don't understand.
00:09:03Sometimes, when you truly love someone,
00:09:08you have to let them go.
00:09:11No matter how much it hurts.
00:09:15Thank you for your help.
00:09:17I hate you, Allie, Brody!
00:09:31Your call has been forwarded to an automatic...
00:09:34Fine.
00:09:37You want me to come after you, Craig Brody?
00:09:41I will.
00:09:42Leave the bag.
00:09:52I'll be five minutes.
00:09:53It's been seven years, Craig Brody,
00:10:13and you broke my heart.
00:10:16Somehow,
00:10:17the pieces still beat for you.
00:10:19Allie!
00:10:26What are you doing here, Allie?
00:10:29Well,
00:10:30someone never signed the divorce papers,
00:10:33so we're still married.
00:10:34Sign the papers, Craig.
00:10:37I can't sign them.
00:10:38You can't?
00:10:40It's complicated.
00:10:42What?
00:10:42Then let me make it simple.
00:10:44I'm supposed to get married to,
00:10:46God, the man of my dreams,
00:10:47in six weeks.
00:10:48Only, the funny thing is,
00:10:50my ex-husband never signed the divorce papers.
00:10:53You're engaged.
00:10:55Yes, Craig!
00:10:56Or did you think I would never move on from you?
00:10:59Sign the papers!
00:11:00I can't sign them.
00:11:02Why not?
00:11:03There's something I have to tell you.
00:11:05Mommy!
00:11:07Oh, oh, ah.
00:11:13I can't sign them.
00:11:15Why not?
00:11:15Because we have a daughter together.
00:11:19And I never told you.
00:11:24We're finally approved.
00:11:28After all this time.
00:11:31You even remember?
00:11:32We're sorry.
00:11:39You have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:11:43Mommy!
00:11:45I'm sorry, but, um, I'm not your mommy.
00:11:49Yes, you are.
00:11:50You are my mommy.
00:11:51Tell her, daddy.
00:11:52Uh...
00:11:53Uh, Craig?
00:11:54What is she talking about?
00:11:55Natalie, why don't you go grab the nests?
00:11:57Because I said we'd go catch bullfrogs, remember?
00:11:59Okay.
00:12:00Is mommy coming with us?
00:12:02No, mommy and daddy need to have a chat.
00:12:04All right?
00:12:04Okay, daddy.
00:12:09You want to tell me what the hell is going on?
00:12:14Well...
00:12:14Allie didn't come here to get back together.
00:12:19She came here to divorce me.
00:12:21And I have to let her move on.
00:12:28I tracked you down in the library in New York.
00:12:32And you were there with another guy.
00:12:36You looked happy.
00:12:38You looked free.
00:12:38Well?
00:12:51Um...
00:12:51You...
00:12:51You know, kids.
00:12:55Active imaginations.
00:12:56She thinks every woman who comes on the farm is her mom.
00:12:59All right, listen.
00:13:00Just...
00:13:00Just leave the papers on the counter and I'll sign them.
00:13:03I have a flight back to New York in three hours.
00:13:05And I am not leaving here without these papers signed.
00:13:07Well, I'm not signing them until I read them over first.
00:13:11Why, Craig?
00:13:13It's not like you have anything that I want.
00:13:15What do you have that I could possibly want?
00:13:19I'm ready, daddy.
00:13:21Okay.
00:13:21Um...
00:13:22I promise I'll sign them.
00:13:24Okay?
00:13:24I know better than to trust your promises, Craig.
00:13:27I got one for you too, mommy.
00:13:29Oh, yeah.
00:13:30So, Miss Allie is going back to New York.
00:13:33So it's just going to be you and me, kiddo.
00:13:35Like always.
00:13:35Okay.
00:13:36I'm sorry.
00:13:38Just leave them in the living room.
00:13:40I'll sign them.
00:13:40No, no.
00:13:40Let's go.
00:13:41Come on.
00:13:41Don't help.
00:13:41Don't help.
00:13:41Don't help.
00:13:46Don't help.
00:13:47Go, go, go, wait!
00:14:17Oh, no cell service still.
00:14:30Guess I'm walking.
00:14:33Mommy, help!
00:14:34Daddy's hurt.
00:14:38What happened?
00:14:39Daddy got bit by a big snake.
00:14:41Yeah.
00:14:43Oh.
00:14:44Copperhead?
00:14:45Mm-hmm.
00:14:47Daddy?
00:14:53You still remember how to draw out snake venom?
00:14:55Well, I haven't forgotten everything you taught me, Craig Brody.
00:15:03Here, keep the pressure on.
00:15:06Okay.
00:15:08Your daddy will be fine.
00:15:10I promise.
00:15:10Hold still.
00:15:21Keep the pressure on.
00:15:25Keep the pressure on.
00:15:25Keep the pressure on.
00:15:28So, your daughter, she looks about...
00:15:36Seven years old.
00:15:39So she's Trista's?
00:15:41No.
00:15:42She's yours.
00:15:45She's yours.
00:15:46So, if she's not Trista's, how many other women were you sleeping with while we were together?
00:15:53I don't care if you were with the entire town.
00:15:56Just, um, sign the papers, Craig, and we can put this sham of marriage behind us.
00:16:00You've got to be kidding me.
00:16:02Where did they go?
00:16:02Daddy's had this photo in a snake stand for seven years, which means he still loves her.
00:16:09And if they loved each other once, they can love each other again.
00:16:13They just need another chance.
00:16:15Where are the divorce papers?
00:16:28No.
00:16:29Oh.
00:16:33I will check into the P-Coy Inn for tonight.
00:16:41Oh.
00:16:41And we can look for the divorce papers tomorrow.
00:16:43The P-Coy closed years ago.
00:16:46There was always your father's.
00:16:48That's, um, not an option.
00:16:51The way she said that, that something happened between her and her father.
00:16:56Well, unless you want to stay outside, I guess you're stuck here.
00:17:05I guess you're stuck here.
00:17:09Fine.
00:17:10But I'm not staying in your room.
00:17:12I wouldn't dream of it.
00:17:13You can stay in my room with me and Lucy.
00:17:18There you go.
00:17:28Wow.
00:17:29I love your room.
00:17:30Thanks.
00:17:30My daddy helped me decorate it.
00:17:32I know it hasn't been easy.
00:17:48I'm trying to start a family, but one day, the adoption will go through.
00:17:54We're going to have that baby, and you will be the most amazing.
00:18:00We're going to have that baby, and you will be the most amazing.
00:18:00Good night, sweetheart.
00:18:01Good night, sweetheart.
00:18:18That logo, it's from the adoption agency.
00:18:35Is Natalie, is Natalie, is Natalie my daughter?
00:18:38That logo, it's from the adoption agency.
00:18:42Is Natalie my daughter?
00:18:44I guess I'm just remembering things wrong.
00:18:53I guess I'm just remembering things wrong.
00:18:53I was just remembering things wrong.
00:19:01I like everything wrong.
00:19:05Oh, come on.
00:19:40There's nothing I haven't seen before.
00:19:46Daddy?
00:19:47Do you know where McHaley went?
00:19:53Uh, no.
00:19:54I haven't seen her.
00:19:56Do you think she left us, Daddy?
00:19:58You know what?
00:19:59Just give me five minutes and I'll help you look, okay, sweetie?
00:20:03Okay, Daddy.
00:20:04Ow!
00:20:05Oh, you're gone.
00:20:09Okay.

00:33:59I think you missed your flight
00:34:02so you're saying we can watch a movie together
00:34:06I guess we can
00:34:11Miss Haley
00:34:15come closer
00:34:16isn't this great
00:34:26just the three of us
00:34:28this blanket always makes my daddy fall asleep
00:34:34oh my god
00:34:53oh my god
00:35:03I love you
00:35:11Hallie Brody
00:35:12why does this feel so
00:35:16right
00:35:17he's still my husband
00:35:20and I know every freckle on his body
00:35:24but no
00:35:25I'm divorcing him
00:35:27and marrying someone else
00:35:29oh my god
00:35:40oh my god
00:35:41oh my god
00:35:45oh my god
00:35:47oh my god
00:35:48Do you like it? I made pancakes.
00:35:59They are excellent, sweetie.
00:36:03This is what families do. They eat breakfast together.
00:36:10What's up?
00:36:16There's some stupid birthday invitation.
00:36:19All the kids from school will be there, but I'm not going.
00:36:22Why not?
00:36:23Because everyone always says if I had a mom, she'd help me pick up better gifts.
00:36:29And they say I'm just a momless loser.
00:36:32You are not a momless loser, Natalie.
00:36:35And don't let anyone make you feel less than you are.
00:36:41I grew up without a mom too, you know.
00:36:44And it was hard, but I was always able to rely on my dad, just like you can.
00:36:55And by the way, your dad is worth a thousand copies.
00:36:59That's true. She checked.
00:37:01She checked.
00:37:03So go to that party with your head held high.
00:37:06No one can take your power from you unless you let them.
00:37:13Okay, Miss Allie, I'll go to the party. Thanks.
00:37:20Excuse me, um, I have to take this.
00:37:32I see you got my messages.
00:37:35Delete that photo, Trista.
00:37:37Oh, which one? Because I have plenty.
00:37:42What's the problem?
00:37:44A rich fiancé isn't enough for you, so you have to come back and seduce your husband too.
00:37:48I didn't come here to get back with Craig, Trista.
00:37:51I came here to divorce him.
00:37:53Really?
00:37:54Then prove it.
00:37:55Walk away now and leave this town for good.
00:37:58Otherwise, these photos will go to the Senator.
00:38:03I could ruin you, Hallie.
00:38:07So don't mess with my life, and I won't mess with yours.
00:38:18Hey, everything okay?
00:38:21Fine.
00:38:22Who are you talking to?
00:38:23Oh, uh, my, uh, fiancé's lawyer.
00:38:26He'll be by with new divorce papers.
00:38:30Um, I have to go.
00:38:32Right now?
00:38:33Yes.
00:38:34I'm sorry, but yes.
00:38:35Can you call me a cab?
00:38:36Hallie.
00:38:37Call me a cab.
00:38:38Craig.
00:38:39Okay.
00:38:42My plan didn't work, Lucy.
00:38:44I guess Mommy isn't in love with Daddy after all.
00:38:57Martha May?
00:38:58Hallie Builder, as I live and breathe!
00:39:01Oh, how are you so skinny?
00:39:03I thought that city of yours had a restaurant on every block.
00:39:06Oh, well they do, but none of them make a burger as good as you do.
00:39:10Oh, well that's nice to know I'll be remembered fondly at least.
00:39:14What?
00:39:15Don't tell me you're shutting down.
00:39:16Yeah, I don't have a choice.
00:39:17Rent's gone up and I can't afford the place anymore.
00:39:20No.
00:39:21No, there must be something I can do.
00:39:23Mayor Diggle, shut it down.
00:39:26Mayor Diggle.
00:39:31Dirk, I can't believe you're shutting down Martha's Diner.
00:39:34It's a town institution.
00:39:35Is it?
00:39:36Or are you just upset about it because you and your boyfriend Craig used to go there?
00:39:40This isn't high school anymore, Dirk.
00:39:43And this isn't a game.
00:39:45What is it going to take for you to leave the diner alone?
00:39:48Well, you know I've always liked you, so...
00:39:53How about you and me handle this privately?
00:39:56I'll pay you.
00:39:57Twelve months' rent.
00:39:58In advance.
00:39:59Listen, you think I want your money?
00:40:03No.
00:40:04I had something more interesting in mind.
00:40:06You!
00:40:07You're disgusting!
00:40:08Listen, Craig was here to save you last time, but he's not here now.
00:40:13Looks like you're all alone, Hallie.
00:40:15No!
00:40:16Let go of my water!
00:40:18I want it!
00:40:27Well, you two are under arrest for assaulting the mayor.
00:40:33You know the drill.
00:40:34This is just like how I used to arrest you when you was back in high school.
00:40:38Your wife, huh?
00:40:48Some habits are hard to break.
00:40:51God, this is so not funny.
00:40:54Ned is running for senator.
00:40:55What will this look like if anyone finds out?
00:40:57And who's going to check a county jail in a nowhere town?
00:41:01I should have never come back here.
00:41:02I should have sent my assistant.
00:41:04I should have hired a lawyer!
00:41:05Then why didn't you?
00:41:07I think you wanted to see me.
00:41:10In your dreams.
00:41:11I have moved on to bigger and better things.
00:41:14Yeah, I heard about that.
00:41:16That neighborhood you shut down put 6,000 people out of work.
00:41:20And the complex I built brought back 10,000 jobs.
00:41:23Yeah, for ivy leaguers and corporate types.
00:41:26What about the blue collars?
00:41:28What about the people you came from?
00:41:30I've tried to forget where I came from!
00:41:33Okay, isn't that what you wanted when you told me I don't belong here?
00:41:36I shouldn't have said that.
00:41:37No, you were right.
00:41:39I'm not the same girl you married.
00:41:42I've built a life, a career.
00:41:45I should thank you.
00:41:47Because I couldn't have done it without you.
00:41:49Alright, lovebirds.
00:41:51Your bail's been posted.
00:41:53You're free to go.
00:41:55Bail by who?
00:41:57Hey, Hal's.
00:41:58Ned!
00:41:59Hey, Hal's.
00:42:00Ned!
00:42:01Hey, Hal's.
00:42:02Ned!
00:42:03So, you must be Craig Brody.
00:42:04The man who couldn't even sign a simple divorce paper.
00:42:06And you must be Ned Vogel.
00:42:08The man who thinks money can solve everything.
00:42:10Yeah well, my money got you out of jail.
00:42:11I didn't ask to be bailed out.
00:42:12Hmph.
00:42:13Well, you can think of it as the government working for you.
00:42:14Well, you can shove your government up your silver spook.
00:42:15Guys, please stop.
00:42:16No, you're right.
00:42:17I'm not here to argue with the man who is holding on to the past.
00:42:19And you must be Ned Vogel, the man who thinks money can solve everything.
00:42:24Yeah, well, my money got you out of jail, wouldn't it?
00:42:27I didn't ask to be bailed out.
00:42:30Well, you can think of it as the government working for you.
00:42:33Well, you can shove your government up your silver spirit.
00:42:36Guys, please stop.
00:42:38No, you're right. I'm not here to argue with a man who's holding on to the past.
00:42:43We got the divorce papers expedited, so you can sign them, Craig.
00:42:52This nonsense has gone on long enough.
00:42:55Can I really divorce Hallie without her knowing about her own daughter?
00:43:02Sign the papers.
00:43:04Or we take you to court.
00:43:07But I gotta tell you, my lawyer's a shark.
00:43:10Say something, Hallie.
00:43:11Say something to stop this.
00:43:16Sign the papers, Craig.
00:43:19Let me go.
00:43:20It's the least you can do.
00:43:29Wonderful.
00:43:30We will get these filed at the town hall.
00:43:33And you will be divorced in an hour.
00:43:37This nonsense has gone on long enough.
00:43:39It's time for you to finally move on with your life, Hallie.
00:43:46Well, are you coming?
00:43:49Yes, of course.
00:43:52Bye.
00:43:53Bye.
00:43:53That is who she ended up with.
00:44:02I always thought it'd be you.
00:44:05You know, sometimes things don't work out the way we want them to.
00:44:11Hallie, what were you thinking?
00:44:13Jail?
00:44:14Are you trying to ruin my campaign?
00:44:17No, no, this has nothing to do with you.
00:44:20You are going to be my wife.
00:44:24Everything you do reflects on me.
00:44:28Now, are there any other skeletons I should know about?
00:44:32No.
00:44:42Nothing.
00:44:45This town is just how you described it.
00:44:50Low class, run down, depressing.
00:44:54It isn't that bad.
00:44:58Those are your words, Hallie.
00:45:00What's gotten into you?
00:45:01I don't know.
00:45:02Um, just...
00:45:04being back here...
00:45:07Should I remind you how lucky you are to have gotten out?
00:45:11Last signature, Miss Bilner.
00:45:13And you'll be free and clear to be the wife of a senny.
00:45:15Okay.
00:45:27Let's go.
00:45:32Fair wages, fair pay!
00:45:34We won't be the contract today!
00:45:35Let us through.
00:45:36No one gets in or out today.
00:45:38Town workers on strike.
00:45:40We need to get these filed.
00:45:42We have a flight to catch in 30 minutes.
00:45:44Sorry, we can't do it.
00:45:49There you are, Mommy.
00:45:53Mommy?
00:45:57I knew you wanted to leave without me, Mommy.
00:46:01Mommy, you two have a kid together?
00:46:03No, no, no, no.
00:46:03Of course not.
00:46:04Natalie, come on.
00:46:05Miss Hallie has to go.
00:46:07No, no!
00:46:09I'm so sorry.
00:46:10I hate you!
00:46:11I hate both of you!
00:46:14Another reason why I'm glad I don't have kids.
00:46:17Look, we need to get these signed.
00:46:19What's it going to cost me to make it happen?
00:46:22Whoa!
00:46:23Is this a city senate official bribing a city employee?
00:46:30You see, I have my fair share of scandals, but this...
00:46:32This is bad.
00:46:35Hallie, I see you got a fancy new fiancé.
00:46:40What happened to your husband?
00:46:41He's still locked away in jail?
00:46:43I think he means soon-to-be ex-husband.
00:46:46Ah.
00:46:47Looks like your father got what he always wanted.
00:46:49You and Craig finally divorced.
00:46:52But what do you mean what my father wanted?
00:46:57What do you mean what my father wanted?
00:47:00Wait, man.
00:47:01Craig never told you-
00:47:02Fair, wait, just fair, wait!
00:47:03Hey!
00:47:04Keep it down, all right?
00:47:05Or I will write you up for a noise violation.
00:47:08How about you pay us what we're owed and not waste our tax dollars on fancy new fire trucks
00:47:14and cocktail parties?
00:47:16Mayor Sullivan never would have done anything.
00:47:18All right, listen, Mayor Sullivan is not in charge anymore.
00:47:21I am, all right?
00:47:23So please just keep it down.
00:47:25Fair wait is fair pay.
00:47:26All right, just keep it down today.
00:47:28Fair wait is fair pay.
00:47:30I'll sign that paper for you.
00:47:32Yeah.
00:47:33All right, good.
00:47:36Where's the rest of it?
00:47:37What?
00:47:38Well, I can't sign this without a custody agreement.
00:47:41A custody agreement?
00:47:43Sure, this child is just as much Hallie as she is Craig's.
00:47:48You lied to me.
00:47:50No, no, no, I didn't know, I swear.
00:47:54How is this even possible?
00:47:56Well, she's adopted.
00:47:57I mean, I did the paperwork myself.
00:47:59You listed as parent number one.
00:48:00Geez, I would have thought he would have told you about it by now.
00:48:03This is not a good thing.
00:48:05A husband is one thing, but a child.
00:48:08If this gets out, I am sunk.
00:48:09Right.
00:48:10A messy custody battle never sits well with voters.
00:48:12Who said anything about a custody agreement?
00:48:15Hallie doesn't even want the kid, right, Hallie?
00:48:17I mean, you barely even know the child.
00:48:20She'll give up custody right now.
00:48:21Where do we sign?
00:48:21It's not that simple.
00:48:23In a case like this, when a child's involved, both parties have to attend a parenting class.
00:48:27The next one starts tomorrow.
00:48:29Tomorrow?
00:48:31I do not have time for this.
00:48:33I have to get back to New York before the press starts asking questions.
00:48:36Uh, go.
00:48:39Go, I'll get this sorted out.
00:48:41Fine.
00:48:42Take care of this child and this marriage quickly and quietly.
00:48:54Hallie?
00:48:55No!
00:48:55You were just going to let me divorce you, never knowing that Natalie's my daughter?
00:48:58The adoption went through after you left.
00:49:11You didn't think I deserved to know?
00:49:13You could have called, written anything!
00:49:17I tried.
00:49:18What?
00:49:19And you were there with another guy.
00:49:24You looked happy.
00:49:26You looked free.
00:49:28Seems you don't need me and Natalie anymore.
00:49:31And that's why you never told me that I had a daughter?
00:49:36You looked like you'd moved on.
00:49:39Moved on?
00:49:40Well, it took me years to move on.
00:49:46And honestly, I don't know if I ever have.
00:49:52Forget it.
00:49:54It doesn't matter now anyway.
00:49:58Here.
00:50:02Parenting class.
00:50:05We need to take it in order to get divorced.
00:50:08Custody.
00:50:08Co-parenting.
00:50:12Legally, Natalie is just as much mine as she is yours.
00:50:15You haven't spent any time with her.
00:50:17You didn't raise her.
00:50:19I know.
00:50:20And whose fault is that?
00:50:23Class is at 8am.
00:50:24Don't be late.
00:50:29I knew Miss Hayley was my mommy.
00:50:37Dad?
00:50:38Maya, what's going on?
00:50:51Daddy!
00:50:53He's okay.
00:50:54He's stabilized.
00:50:55Your old man's a fighter, Holly.
00:50:58And clearly he's fighting to see you again.
00:51:02No fighting to see me?
00:51:03No, if anything, he'd be pissed to know I'm back.
00:51:08My dad hates me.
00:51:09That's not possible.
00:51:11Holly, he talks about you all the time.
00:51:14He does?
00:51:15Yep.
00:51:16Every Monday and Thursday at dialysis.
00:51:18That's how I know about your fancy job.
00:51:21And your fancy boyfriend.
00:51:22None of this makes any sense.
00:51:27Holly, are you okay?
00:51:28Yeah.
00:51:29Yeah, today's just been a lot.
00:51:34Maya, did you know that Natalie's my daughter?
00:51:38My shift ends in five minutes.
00:51:44Do you want to grab a drink?
00:51:47Craig has never revealed who Natalie's mother was.
00:51:51But he's never been with anyone since you.
00:51:53So we figured...
00:51:54Wait a second.
00:51:55Uh, he's never been with anyone since me.
00:51:59No, he left me for Trista.
00:52:01I saw him.
00:52:02Trista.
00:52:03She's been after him for years, sure.
00:52:05But he'd never touch her with a ten-foot pole.
00:52:07I don't understand.
00:52:09Just send me the divorce papers, okay?
00:52:12Craig!
00:52:14Oh my God.
00:52:24Excuse me, Maya.
00:52:26I need to get to the bottom of this.
00:52:27Okay.
00:52:31Good to see you, Hallie.
00:52:38I know the truth.
00:52:39You were never with Trista.
00:52:42So tell me the truth about everything.
00:52:45Right now.
00:52:51Play me for it.
00:52:53If you win,
00:52:55I'll tell you.
00:53:01Looks like big city living hasn't dulled your A-middle.
00:53:07No, if anything.
00:53:08Maybe sharper.
00:53:16You two are playing like your lives depend on it.
00:53:24Well,
00:53:24kinda do.
00:53:26I don't know.
00:53:26I don't know.
00:53:26I don't know.
00:53:27I don't know.
00:53:27I don't know.
00:53:28I don't know.
00:53:28I don't know.
00:53:29I don't know.
00:53:29I don't know.
00:53:30I don't know.
00:53:30I don't know.
00:53:31Oops.
00:53:36If you do that again,
00:53:38I might just have to take you right here on the table.
00:53:41Too bad I'm engaged.
00:53:45What are you playing at, Hallie?
00:53:47I deserve the truth.
00:53:49Why?
00:53:50You came here to divorce me.
00:53:52What good would the truth do?
00:53:54I'll be the one to decide that.
00:53:56I don't know.
00:54:01I know.
00:54:02You scratched.
00:54:07I don't know.
00:54:08I will go for you.
00:54:09You scratched.
00:54:10I will go for you, let me see.
00:54:11I'm going for you.
00:54:12You scratched.
00:54:16You scratched.
00:54:23I win.
00:54:25Thank you, ladies.
00:54:27But I gotta go.
00:54:29I have an early start.
00:54:36Maybe I can find some clues in my father's room.
00:54:41Why didn't my father tell me he was sick?
00:54:44And why won't anyone just tell me the truth?
00:54:50Oh my god.
00:54:57This will always belong to Hallie.
00:55:01And so will my heart.
00:55:02What is this doing here?
00:55:10What was this doing in my father's bedroom?
00:55:12Hallie...
00:55:13Tell me.
00:55:14Why was this in my father's room?
00:55:18Don't tell me you're about to propose, Hallie.
00:55:21Trista?
00:55:22What are you doing here?
00:55:24Surprise!
00:55:25I'm teaching the course.
00:55:27It's time for the two of you to get divorced.
00:55:31I mean, this is what you both want, right?
00:55:35Of course.
00:55:37Hallie, you are Natalie's mother after all.
00:55:40Yes, but she doesn't know it yet, so please keep this between us.
00:55:44I will always do you a favor, Craig.
00:55:47You know that.
00:55:48Okay.
00:55:49First topic.
00:55:51How to explain to your child why you're not together anymore.
00:55:54Uh, simple.
00:55:55Her father is a lying, manipulative jerk who hid the fact that I had a daughter for five years.
00:56:02Not to mention whatever other secrets he's keeping.
00:56:05And what would you have done if I'd come up to you in the library that day?
00:56:08Hallie, be honest.
00:56:10You're starting a new life somewhere else.
00:56:11Because you made me believe there was nothing left for me here.
00:56:14So what are you going to do?
00:56:16You're going to take Natalie to New York?
00:56:18Maybe.
00:56:20She belongs here.
00:56:22Not in New York with central air and no pair.
00:56:26And I will be damned if I let Ned Vogel be my daughter's stepfather.
00:56:31Jealous, Craig.
00:56:33You know, of all the things Ned is, he's never lied to me.
00:56:35Never torn my world apart without so much as an explanation.
00:56:39You want an explanation?
00:56:41Yeah.
00:56:41I'll give you one.
00:56:42I did lie to you that day when I told you that I didn't love you anymore.
00:56:50I'm done yet.
00:56:53I knew he was so in love with you.
00:56:55I knew it.
00:56:56You just came here and you ruined everything like I knew you would.
00:56:58Ruined what exactly?
00:57:00I know the truth, Trista.
00:57:02You and Craig were never together.
00:57:05And that's about to change, sweetie.
00:57:07Once those divorce papers are finalized, Craig will have no choice but to choose me.
00:57:12Besides, Natalie needs a mother.
00:57:15You want to be Natalie's mom?
00:57:17Well, not particularly.
00:57:19But I can pretend.
00:57:21At least until I send her off to boarding school.
00:57:23After all these years, her father and I deserve some alone time.
00:57:27I mean, don't you think?
00:57:28Go back to New York, Hallie.
00:57:36None of this concerns of you anymore.
00:57:38I think I'll go comfort your husband now.
00:57:43Oh, he looks upset.
00:57:45Let me out!
00:58:02Somebody!
00:58:06I'm so sorry about that.
00:58:08I didn't realize Hallie would try to provoke you like that.
00:58:11Oh, Hallie was right.
00:58:13I should have told her about Natalie.
00:58:14It was unfair.
00:58:16I need to apologize.
00:58:17Do you?
00:58:18Because you and I both know what Hallie would have chosen all those years ago.
00:58:22And it wouldn't have been you and them.
00:58:23I don't, because I never gave her the chance.
00:58:26I did.
00:58:27What?
00:58:28All those years ago, I told her about Natalie.
00:58:35I don't understand.
00:58:38I care about you, Craig.
00:58:41And I would never, ever lie to you.
00:58:44I told her that you had a daughter together.
00:58:46And she never even tried to contact you.
00:58:49Did she?
00:58:50I'm so sorry I didn't tell you before, but I was just trying to protect you.
00:58:58She said that the last thing that she wanted was a daughter with you.
00:59:02She said that?
00:59:04Yes.
00:59:05In fact, she said that she didn't want any kids at all.
00:59:08Hallie was born to be a mother.
00:59:09That's all she's ever wanted.
00:59:12Is it?
00:59:12This is from the judge.
00:59:16She's planning on giving up full custody.
00:59:19She's going to New York.
00:59:20She has no interest in fighting for you or Natalie.
00:59:24But I do.
00:59:32What are you doing?
00:59:35I'm just trying to help you move on, Craig.
00:59:38Hallie will never choose you.
00:59:41But I will.
00:59:42It's not going to happen, Trista.
00:59:45It's not.
00:59:45Natalie!
00:59:46Natalie needs a mother.
00:59:47You know it and I know it.
00:59:49You need to move on, Craig, and come back to reality.
00:59:52Let me out!
00:59:55Hallie?
00:59:57What did you do to her?
00:59:59Nothing!
00:59:59Nothing!
01:00:00This was a mistake.
01:00:02Having you help me out all those years ago is the biggest regret of my life.
01:00:06It's never going to happen!
01:00:08No matter what happens with me and Hallie!
01:00:12You want to play it like that?
01:00:19So be it.
01:00:24Hi!
01:00:26I'd like to speak to Senator Ned Vogel, please.
01:00:28Are you okay?
01:00:34Don't.
01:00:36Why do you care, Craig?
01:00:38Is everything you tell me a lie?
01:00:40What?
01:00:41I saw you kissing Trista!
01:00:43Don't try and deny it.
01:00:44You told me you loved me.
01:00:47I don't believe a word you say.
01:00:49Hallie, please, please believe me.
01:00:51That was a mistake.
01:00:52God, the only mistake I ever made was coming back here.
01:00:56I don't know what I thought I'd find.
01:00:59But now I know.
01:01:02I dodged a bullet seven years ago.
01:01:08Hi!
01:01:08I'd like to inform Senator Ned Vogel that his perfect little fiancé is cheating on him with her husband.
01:01:16And don't worry.
01:01:18I have pictures to prove it.
01:01:22No, this isn't a prank phone call.
01:01:25I have proof.
01:01:27What?
01:01:31No, I'm not lying!
01:01:33Hello?
01:01:34Hello?
01:01:37I guess I'll just have to go to the New York Post with this one.
01:01:41You're buried, Hallie.
01:01:45Ned, hi.
01:01:46Hallie, great news.
01:01:48I just got off the phone with my lawyer.
01:01:50He said because you're giving up custody, parenting class is unnecessary.
01:01:53So, you can sign the papers today, and you'll be divorced by tomorrow.
01:01:58Tomorrow?
01:01:59Yeah.
01:02:00I already got a schedule for a gala Saturday, a fundraising brunch on Sunday.
01:02:05I can't wait to get you back on my arm in that pretty little black dress of yours.
01:02:09Me either.
01:02:11Well, you don't sound very happy.
01:02:13It's just...
01:02:14What about Natalie?
01:02:17My daughter?
01:02:17What are you going to do, Hallie?
01:02:19Bring the kid with you to New York?
01:02:21Co-parent with your ex?
01:02:22No.
01:02:24Look, if you want to have a baby, we can have a baby.
01:02:27Together.
01:02:28But I'm not going to raise someone else's kids, okay?
01:02:31Just sign over the custody and divorce it.
01:02:34Today.
01:02:36There's nothing there for you anymore, Hallie.
01:02:38Not anymore.
01:02:43You're right.
01:02:44There is nothing left for me here.
01:02:47How are you...
01:02:47I'm giving up custody.
01:02:49And going back to New York.
01:02:50You win, Craig.
01:02:53You win?
01:02:54You never wanted me to be a part of Natalie's life.
01:02:57Or yours.
01:03:00Well, congratulations.
01:03:01You got your wish.
01:03:02Hallie, please just hear me out.
01:03:04That's not the full story.
01:03:05There is nothing that you can say that will change anything.
01:03:08The damage is done.
01:03:09Let's just sign the papers and end this marriage.
01:03:16Party one agrees to give up full custody.
01:03:20Correct?
01:03:22That's right.
01:03:22Okay, so regarding the parental rights of Natalie Hallie Brody.
01:03:28What?
01:03:28Hallie?
01:03:29Her middle name is Hallie?
01:03:31She's your daughter, too.
01:03:34She's your daughter, too.
01:03:36Hey!
01:03:37Oh, my...
01:03:38She belongs here.
01:03:43I'm not going to raise someone else's kid.
01:03:44Ma'am, please sign in the dotted line.
01:03:55It's really over.
01:03:57Now for the divorce papers.
01:04:21Is that it?
01:04:22Yes.
01:04:23Congratulations.
01:04:24In 24 hours, you'll be ex-husband and wife.
01:04:29It was nice being married to you, Hallie Bovner.
01:04:34Wish I could say the same, Craig Brody.
01:04:42Lulu, um, I'll be back in the city by tonight.
01:04:46Rebook my meetings and get me a pedicure appointment.
01:04:49Thank God.
01:04:50I thought you were never coming back.
01:04:52But then I remembered.
01:04:53You're Hallie Bovner.
01:04:55Your work is your life.
01:04:58My life.
01:05:00Right.
01:05:04Oh, um, by the way, did you ever do that favor I asked?
01:05:08Oh, you mean that favor where I went to 50 different toy stores all over the city just for one special kid?
01:05:13Yes, I did.
01:05:14Yes, I did.
01:05:17Which, might I ask, who is this special child?
01:05:22My daughter.
01:05:23A monster truck 300?
01:05:31This is the best present ever.
01:05:35Who's next?
01:05:36Sam, why don't you get Natalie's present over with?
01:05:39We all know it's going to be the worst.
01:05:43Here it is.
01:05:44Look how tiny it is.
01:05:46Catch.
01:05:46It's probably a gum wrapper.
01:05:53Or a half-eaten apple.
01:05:55She's so poor, she probably can't afford anything else.
01:06:00Guys, be nice.
01:06:01At least if it's not a tree branch like last time.
01:06:04It was a walking stick and my dad made it.
01:06:09That's right, your dad.
01:06:10Because where's your mom again?
01:06:12That's right, nowhere.
01:06:17Oops, hope it wasn't fragile.
01:06:24It's a friendship bracelet.
01:06:26Friendship?
01:06:27We're not friends.
01:06:29That's so sad.
01:06:31I can't believe you actually invited this freak to your party.
01:06:36My mom forced me to.
01:06:38If you had a mom, she'd help you pick out a real present.
01:06:41Not this dumb piece of string.
01:06:44I do have a mom.
01:06:46Then, where is she?
01:06:48She lives in New York and she's a powerful CEO.
01:06:51Why do you make up a story like that?
01:06:52If your mom was a powerful CEO,
01:06:54she would give you better gifts than this.
01:06:59Mom-less loser.
01:07:01Mom-less loser.
01:07:03Mom-less loser.
01:07:05Mom-less loser.
01:07:07Mom-less loser.
01:07:09Mom-less loser.
01:07:11Mom-less loser.
01:07:14Nobody can take your power away from you except you.
01:07:18Don't ever forget that.
01:07:19You were wrong, Mommy.
01:07:20And you left me.
01:07:22You know what?
01:07:23Forget this.
01:07:25I have a delivery for Sam Baker.
01:07:36That's me.
01:07:39These must be for my uncle.
01:07:41He's super rich.
01:07:44Where do you think you're going?
01:07:46I never shouldn't have come.
01:07:47I'm getting out of here.
01:07:49Actually, you're going to stay here and watch what real presents look like.
01:07:54Yeah, and maybe next time you'll come up with something better than a stupid piece of strength.
01:07:59A pickleball racket?
01:08:01Nintendo Switch?
01:08:03A build room bar kit?
01:08:05An e-scooter?
01:08:07A monster truck 400?
01:08:10These must cost a fortune.
01:08:13Uncle Rick is the best.
01:08:16Uh, actually, these gifts are from Natalie's mom.
01:08:23My mommy.
01:08:24She does love me.
01:08:25Wait.
01:08:26This has to be a prank.
01:08:28Natalie is just lying about her mom.
01:08:30She's unreal.
01:08:31Well, someone very real signed for these purchase orders herself.
01:08:35All $15,000 worth of them.
01:08:37$15,000?
01:08:39How rich is she?
01:08:41Like I said, she's a powerful CEO in New York.
01:08:44And she's too busy to care what you small-town losers think.
01:08:49No, wait.
01:08:49No.
01:08:50Where are you going?
01:08:51Uh, it's okay.
01:08:52You can sit next to me.
01:08:53No.
01:08:54Sit next to me.
01:08:56I want to be friends with you if you pay me.
01:08:59Enjoy the presents, loser.
01:09:03And your cake is dry, by the way.
01:09:11Daddy.
01:09:14I don't know if you can hear me, but I wanted you to know I'm going back to New York.
01:09:20Okay?
01:09:21You were right about Craig.
01:09:24He's a liar.
01:09:26And a cheat.
01:09:27But the man I'm about to marry?
01:09:30He's rich.
01:09:33Handsome.
01:09:35Successful.
01:09:35Exactly.
01:09:38The kind of man he would have meant for me.
01:09:41I'll miss you.
01:09:43Okay.
01:09:46You're running towards something.
01:09:48Back to your life.
01:09:50Go.
01:09:51Your father's in good hands.
01:09:53I promise.
01:09:54Would you look after Natalie?
01:09:56For me.
01:09:57Of course.
01:09:57Thank you, Ms. Bildner.
01:10:15First class is to the left.
01:10:17Thank you so much.
01:10:19Natalie.
01:10:21Natalie.
01:10:21What are you doing here?
01:10:23I'm coming with you to New York.
01:10:25The flight departs in one minute.
01:10:33Come on, Natalie.
01:10:34I'll take you home.
01:10:41Oh, my God.
01:10:44Where'd you find her?
01:10:45She was at the airport.
01:10:46Airport?
01:10:47I wanted to go to New York City with Mommy.
01:10:51She knows.
01:10:52Craig.
01:10:56Natalie, can you give us a minute?
01:10:58Okay, Daddy.
01:11:00Thank you for bringing her booze.
01:11:02Of course.
01:11:04But, um, before I go,
01:11:07I have a favor to ask.
01:11:09Anything.
01:11:09You can find Natalie a mother.
01:11:13Just make sure it's not Trista.
01:11:15Okay.
01:11:18Okay.
01:11:21Okay.
01:11:23Alright.
01:11:39Ow.
01:11:42Ow.
01:11:43Ow.
01:11:43Ow.
01:11:44Ow.
01:11:44Ow.
01:11:45Ow.
01:11:45After all these years, he never gave up on us.
01:11:51After all these years, he never gave up on us.
01:12:00You probably could have come up with something better.
01:12:03No, it's perfect.
01:12:08How long have you been working on this?
01:12:11A few years now.
01:12:12Ever since I left?
01:12:17Maybe.
01:12:20But why?
01:12:23I couldn't let our dream die just because our marriage did.
01:12:27That crazy dream?
01:12:30Doesn't look so crazy anymore, does it?
01:12:33No, it doesn't.
01:12:35Hell yeah.
01:12:37Not a day goes by where I don't think about you.
01:12:39And I know, I know, you won't believe a word I say, but I thought maybe you'd believe something you could see.
01:12:48Is that us?
01:12:58Yeah, it is.
01:12:59I love you.
01:13:08And I never stopped.
01:13:10I've missed this for so long.
01:13:28I've wanted this for so long.
01:13:30No, we have to stop.
01:13:36The papers are signed, Craig.
01:13:38I'm engaged to someone else.
01:13:41And it's too late to turn the clock back now.
01:13:46Send me a picture when the town's rebuilt, okay?
01:13:47That's the thing, it won't be.
01:13:53What?
01:13:53What do you mean?
01:13:56Got this in the mail today.
01:13:58My plans were approved, but Dirk Diggle bought up all the local contractors, and I can't afford anyone else, so...
01:14:06I'm going to have to rescind my offer.
01:14:07No, you can't do that.
01:14:09I have to.
01:14:10I don't have a choice.
01:14:11What if I said, I could help.
01:14:19I could help.
01:14:22Go back to New York, Hallie.
01:14:25Don't worry about someone's tiny little dream in a nowhere town.
01:14:30This was our dream, Craig.
01:14:36Besides, you helped me out with their didawas.
01:14:38She said she's not interested, bro.
01:14:44Now let me help you.
01:14:55Lulu.
01:14:57Um, change of plans.
01:15:00Send all of our best contractors to Franklin, Tennessee.
01:15:03Also, cancel my pedicure appointment.
01:15:08Have you come to withdraw your application, Craig?
01:15:13I knew you couldn't afford it.
01:15:15Well, actually, I just came to give you the deposit.
01:15:19We break ground tomorrow.
01:15:22We.
01:15:23We said we would fix this town up.
01:15:25Mm-hmm.
01:15:26And that is exactly what we're going to do.
01:15:29I never thought I'd see the day where our dream became a reality.
01:15:36No, it was always your dream.
01:15:38I was just happy to help.
01:15:42Lulu!
01:15:43Oh, my God!
01:15:46Wow, boss.
01:15:47No wonder you never came back.
01:15:49You never told me your husband was a stone-cold pot.
01:15:51Oh.
01:15:53Ex-husband.
01:15:55Right.
01:15:55Right.
01:15:59Hallie.
01:16:01Ned.
01:16:02Hi.
01:16:03Um, what are you doing here?
01:16:05I told you I would be back next week.
01:16:07You want to tell me what the meaning of this is?
01:16:14You told me there was nothing going on between you two.
01:16:16Are you trying to embarrass me on a national stage?
01:16:19No, um, no.
01:16:21Ned, I am so sorry.
01:16:23I, uh, is your campaign okay?
01:16:25It's fine, for now.
01:16:27Luckily, this is just a mock-up.
01:16:30Post gave it to us before going to press.
01:16:32Get in.
01:16:33I am taking you home.
01:16:36Ned, I told you this project is important.
01:16:40Hallie, you build multi-billion dollar skyscrapers.
01:16:43Not whatever this is.
01:16:46This matters.
01:16:48A sad little shopping mall in a sad little town?
01:16:52Come on, Hallie.
01:16:53You're better than this.
01:16:55What's that supposed to mean?
01:16:57Being back here, it has you confused.
01:17:00You don't know what you want.
01:17:01You don't know who you really are anymore.
01:17:04But this...
01:17:06is your past.
01:17:07I am your future.
01:17:10Remember?
01:17:12You still...
01:17:13want to marry me?
01:17:15Even after that?
01:17:16Yes.
01:17:17In fact, I want to move the wedding up.
01:17:19Let's get married right now.
01:17:24Let's get married right now.
01:17:26Right now?
01:17:29Um...
01:17:29Excuse me.
01:17:33Hey.
01:17:35Seeing these photos, it made me realize how much you mean to me.
01:17:39I can't lose you, Hallie.
01:17:41I don't want to lose you.
01:17:43Please.
01:17:45Marry me.
01:17:46You're gonna marry her?
01:17:51She was cheating on you.
01:17:55Who are you?
01:17:57I'm the woman that took these photos.
01:17:59So, you admit to sabotaging a political campaign.
01:18:03What?
01:18:04No.
01:18:05Ma'am, you're lucky the senator doesn't press charges.
01:18:08Come with me.
01:18:08What?
01:18:09No.
01:18:10No.
01:18:10No.
01:18:11You will not win this one, Hallie.
01:18:13No.
01:18:13Don't touch me.
01:18:16Ned, this all just feels a little fast.
01:18:21Yeah, but is it, Hallie?
01:18:22What are we waiting for?
01:18:26What are we waiting for?
01:18:29I don't know.
01:18:31Quit fucking around.
01:18:33And marry me already.
01:18:34What's the rush, Ned?
01:18:36I...
01:18:37The post agreed to kill the cheating story.
01:18:38If we give him something better.
01:18:42Something like...
01:18:43A wedding, for example.
01:18:46You want to marry me?
01:18:48For a story?
01:18:49Come on, Hallie.
01:18:51We're gonna get married anyway.
01:18:53What difference does it make?
01:18:54Was this whole thing just a publicity stunt?
01:18:59Our engagement?
01:19:01Our relationship?
01:19:02No.
01:19:03Of course not.
01:19:04I love you.
01:19:05Then what's my favorite color, Ned?
01:19:07Oh, come on, Hallie.
01:19:10My favorite flower?
01:19:14My favorite flower?
01:19:15I don't know.
01:19:16Roses?
01:19:17Does it even matter?
01:19:19Yes, it does.
01:19:22I'm sorry, Ned, but I can't marry you.
01:19:27Yes, you can.
01:19:28Yes, you can.
01:19:29Because if you don't, I can make your life very difficult.
01:19:34Starting with those big city contracts you just won.
01:19:37I spent years of blood, sweat, and tears to get those contracts.
01:19:40But once I'm elected, I can make them all go poof.
01:19:45I have friends in very high places, Hallie.
01:19:48No, you wouldn't dare.
01:19:50I worked my entire career for those.
01:19:52Well, then the answer is simple.
01:19:54Marry me.
01:19:56We'll lose everything.
01:19:58Come on, Hallie.
01:19:59This is not a difficult choice.
01:20:02You're hurting me.
01:20:03If you think this is pain, you haven't felt anything yet.
01:20:07Neither of you.
01:20:20My suit.
01:20:21My jaw.
01:20:22You broke my face.
01:20:24It looks real good.
01:20:26Looks better that way, in my opinion.
01:20:28I have you arrested for assaulting a government official.
01:20:31There isn't a cop who will side with you over me.
01:20:34Not in this town.
01:20:37By the way, her favorite color is blue.
01:20:40And her favorite flower, the marigold,
01:20:43as it blooms from spring to fall.
01:20:46There you go.
01:20:48I hope that suit isn't too expensive.
01:20:50This suit is worth more than you make in a year.
01:20:52Hmm, isn't that something?
01:20:55It's time for you to leave, Senator.
01:20:57Come on, Hallie.
01:20:59You're not going to give up everything
01:21:00just for some pathetic small-town nobody.
01:21:04Yeah, he may be from a small town,
01:21:06but he is not a nobody.
01:21:10In fact, if I had to choose a son-in-law,
01:21:13I'd pick him over you any day of the week.
01:21:16Daddy!
01:21:18Hallie, I am so sorry for everything.
01:21:21Starting with meddling in your marriage.
01:21:25Meddling?
01:21:26I'm the one that made Craig divorce.
01:21:29I told him if he really loved you, he'd let you go.
01:21:33He did.
01:21:34I thought you deserved more than a small town,
01:21:40more than a local boy like him.
01:21:43She does, sir.
01:21:45Come on, Hallie.
01:21:47He divorced you.
01:21:48He gave up a daughter for you.
01:21:50So what if I want to marry you for a story?
01:21:53People get married for worse reasons.
01:21:55And they get divorced for better ones.
01:21:59I don't care what you think, old man.
01:22:01Hallie, you're coming with me.
01:22:02You stay away from my daughter.
01:22:04Hallie, I am not leaving.
01:22:06You owe it to me to go through this wedding.
01:22:09I've had about enough of people telling me
01:22:11who I should and shouldn't marry.
01:22:16Get out of here, Ned.
01:22:17It's over between us.
01:22:23Get out of here, Ned.
01:22:25It's over between us.
01:22:28Fine.
01:22:30But I hope you know what you're giving up, Hallie.
01:22:34I most certainly do.
01:22:41It was too big anyway.
01:22:44Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
01:22:47What about me?
01:22:47I'll marry you.
01:22:49I'm sure The Post would love to see me at a wedding gown.
01:22:53And I would look way better than Hallie ever would.
01:22:56Not in a million years.
01:22:59Oh, my gosh.
01:23:01Ew.
01:23:02Ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew.
01:23:05Oh, my God.
01:23:06I can't see me like this.
01:23:07Oh, my God.
01:23:11I owe you both an apology for trying to play God.
01:23:15Daddy.
01:23:16Hear me out.
01:23:18When I was in the hospital, I hooked up to all those machines.
01:23:21I just kept having the same wonderful dream.
01:23:25This dream where you were still together.
01:23:28This dream where you were both living the life you deserve.
01:23:32I took that future and that life away from you.
01:23:38Hallie, Craig never wanted to divorce you.
01:23:43Hallie, Craig never wanted to divorce you.
01:23:46How?
01:23:47This should be enough.
01:23:49I want her on that plane, alone, whatever it takes.
01:23:55I tried to pay him off.
01:24:00And this is what he did with the money.
01:24:02I've never seen someone work so hard for love.
01:24:07Is this true, Craig?
01:24:09Why didn't you just tell me?
01:24:14Because I didn't want you to hate your father or blame him when he just thought he was doing what was right.
01:24:19You were protecting me.
01:24:23That's right.
01:24:25You two are the only family you have left.
01:24:29Unless...
01:24:29Will you let me be a part of your family again?
01:24:37Now, I know this ring isn't exactly as big as your old one.
01:24:42But, um...
01:24:44You'd make me the happiest man in the world if you would marry me again.
01:24:49Yeah?
01:24:50Yes!
01:24:51Yes, Craig, I'll marry you!
01:24:53Oh, perfect fit!
01:24:59It always was.
01:25:03Mommy, Daddy, I knew you'd come back together!
01:25:06Oh, she did.
01:25:07Come on.
01:25:07Come on.
01:25:08Up we go.
01:25:09Dale!
01:25:10That wasn't such a crazy dream.
01:25:12I'd like you to meet your granddaughter, Natalie Hallie Brody.
01:25:16My dream came true.
01:25:18Hi, Grandpa.
01:25:20Hallie.
01:25:21This is crazy, but if we run, we can make it to the town clerk before it closes.
01:25:26I do not want to be divorced from you one second longer.
01:25:29Me either.
01:25:30Yeah?
01:25:31Yeah?
01:25:31Okay, what do we think?
01:25:33Who's up for a wedding?
01:25:35Yeah?
01:25:36Yeah?
01:25:37Yeah?
01:25:38Yeah?
01:25:42Hi.
01:25:43Um, we would like to get remarried.
01:25:47I can't accept your remarriage.
01:25:50That's ridiculous.
01:25:52Uh, what?
01:25:53Why?
01:25:54I can't accept your remarriage.
01:25:56That's ridiculous.
01:25:58Uh, what?
01:25:59Why?
01:26:00Well, because you were never really divorced in the first place.
01:26:03Look right here.
01:26:04You signed your name Hallie Bildner.
01:26:07But your name is, and always has been, Hallie Brody.
01:26:11Will you look at that?
01:26:14Wait, so, um, that means the custody papers?
01:26:18Well, that's, uh, that's void.
01:26:23So, you're still Natalie's parents.
01:26:25Province.
01:26:26Mommy!
01:26:26Mommy!
01:26:29Daddy.
01:26:30Daddy.
01:26:32I forgive you.
01:26:34I forgive you.
01:26:52I've got seven years to make up for it.
01:27:03I just want to thank you all for your faith in me.
01:27:10And as your new mayor, I promise to work tirelessly to bring this town back to what it once was.
01:27:17Starting with the community center that Craig and Hallie so generously built.
01:27:26We love you, man, Martha.
01:27:27Love you.
01:27:33What do you think, Michal?
01:27:40Looks like they found a story to replace me with after all.
01:27:50Is there a really baby right there?
01:27:52Yes.
01:27:53We're going to be one big happy family.
01:28:03Bye.
01:28:04Happy birthday.
01:28:05Bye.
01:28:06Bye.
01:28:15Bye.
