00:01:19Ow!
00:01:20Ow!
00:01:21Oh, no.
00:01:22This is going to cost a fortune to replace.
00:01:23You can have mine.
00:01:24No, I couldn't.
00:01:25Yeah, you could.
00:01:26I've seen you in class.
00:01:27Do you want to grab lunch or keep studying?
00:01:40Yeah, let's grab lunch.
00:01:43Great.
00:01:50When did you two get back from the honeymoon?
00:01:52Just an hour ago.
00:01:53And this 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.
00:02:02And when we get back, we're going to rebuild this town.
00:02:08Together.
00:02:11Allie, get me some ice.
00:02:13Sure, Daddy.
00:02:18Are you two insane?
00:02:20Rebuild this town?
00:02:22This town is dying.
00:02:23And I want my daughter as far away from it as possible.
00:02:27But, sir, we have a plan.
00:02:30We even applied to adopt a child.
00:02:32Even more reason to end this now before you keep her trapped here forever.
00:02:37I promised Allie's mother before she passed away that I would take care of our daughter.
00:02:42She deserves more than this two-bit town.
00:02:44And quite frankly, she deserves more than you.
00:02:47But, sir, I love her more than anything.
00:02:50I 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.
00:03:06Let 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.
00:03:33For 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?
00:03:47You think I want to just sit around while you study crumbling buildings?
00:03:52You're never going to be a real architect.
00:03:54The world is going to chew you up and spit you out.
00:03:57And it's going to be too pathetic for me to watch.
00:04:01Um, what, but, no, what about our plans?
00:04:07We were trying to start a family together.
00:04:10No, the last person I'd want to start a family with is you, Allie.
00:04:14I want a divorce.
00:04:17No, no, but where is this coming from?
00:04:21Hi, Craig baby.
00:04:23Are you seeing Trista now?
00:04:26Yeah, just send me the divorce papers, okay?
00:04:30Craig, no, what?
00:04:35I thought you believed in me.
00:04:38Ma'am, boarding is closing. Are you coming or not?
00:04:41Yes, but I'd like to change my ticket to one-way.
00:04:50Ms. Hiltner! Ms. Hiltner!
00:04:52You were just recognized as Time Magazine's top CEO to watch,
00:04:55and your company is taking the New York architecture scene by storm.
00:04:59What's next for you?
00:05:01Um, I don't know.
00:05:03I don't know.
00:05:05You were just recognized as Time Magazine's top CEO to watch,
00:05:07and your company is taking the New York architecture scene by storm.
00:05:10What's next for you?
00:05:12Um, I don't know.
00:05:14Taking over the world?
00:05:16Well, you and your boyfriend, billionaire politician Ned Vogel,
00:05:18are quite the power couple.
00:05:20He must be so proud.
00:05:22I'm not doing any of this for a man's approval.
00:05:24Well, word on the street is, he's planning on proposing.
00:05:26You must be the luckiest girl in the world.
00:05:30The luckiest girl in the world?
00:05:32Right.
00:05:35Oh my God.
00:05:41Oh my God.
00:05:47Allie Bildner,
00:05:49you are the most impressive woman I've ever met.
00:05:51you are the most impressive woman I've ever met.
00:05:53You are my soulmate.
00:05:55You are my soulmate.
00:06:05Will you marry me?
00:06:11Will you marry me?
00:06:13Allie Bildner, I love you more than anything.
00:06:15You are my soulmate,
00:06:17and the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:06:19Will you make me the luckiest man in the world,
00:06:21and marry me?
00:06:23Allie? Allie?
00:06:25You're really leaving me to sweat here.
00:06:29And this suit is way too expensive for that.
00:06:31The most eligible bachelor in the country
00:06:33is proposing to me,
00:06:35so why am I thinking about Craig?
00:06:37He was a jerk and a liar,
00:06:39and I need to move on with my life.
00:06:44Of course I'll marry you.
00:06:54This 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.
00:07:02Oh, you know,
00:07:04Allie would love a hot tea.
00:07:08We have a problem.
00:07:10And that is?
00:07:12You're already married.
00:07:14To a Craig Brody?
00:07:20He never signed the divorce papers?
00:07:24So you're still married?
00:07:26He was my high school sweetheart.
00:07:28We got married.
00:07:30But it didn't work out.
00:07:32I thought he had signed the divorce papers.
00:07:34You thought?
00:07:36Allie, the election is in six weeks.
00:07:38This could ruin my campaign.
00:07:40Just imagine the headlines.
00:07:42Senator's fiancee, already a wife?
00:07:44I will 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.
00:07:56I know this is important.
00:07:58Yeah, so is this.
00:08:02Clarence, what's going on, buddy?
00:08:04Talk to me.
00:08:08Motherfucker.
00:08:26I never thought I'd hear from you again, hon.
00:08:34Thanks for meeting me here, Trista.
00:08:38So, 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.
00:08:48So, there's this romantic movie playing at Cinema 6.
00:08:50I thought me and you can go and watch.
00:08:52And we can cuddle.
00:08:54We're not going anywhere together, Trista.
00:08:56My heart still belongs to Allie.
00:09:00And it always will.
00:09:02I don't understand.
00:09:04Sometimes,
00:09:06when you truly love someone,
00:09:08you have to let them go.
00:09:10No matter how much it hurts.
00:09:16Thank you for your help.
00:09:24I hate you, Allie Brody!
00:09:36Fine.
00:09:38You want me to come after you, Craig Brody?
00:09:42I will.
00:09:44Okay.
00:09:52Leave the bag.
00:09:54I'll be five minutes.
00:09:56Okay.
00:10:12It's been seven years, Craig Brody,
00:10:14and you broke my heart.
00:10:16Somehow,
00:10:18the piece is still beat for you.
00:10:20Allie!
00:10:22What?
00:10:24What are you doing here, Allie?
00:10:26Well,
00:10:28someone never signed the divorce papers,
00:10:30so we're still married.
00:10:32Sign the papers, Craig.
00:10:34I can't sign them.
00:10:36You can't?
00:10:38It's complicated.
00:10:40Then let me make it simple.
00:10:42I'm supposed to get married to,
00:10:44God, the man of my dreams,
00:10:46in six weeks.
00:10:48Only, the funny thing is,
00:10:50my ex-husband never signed the divorce papers.
00:10:52You're engaged.
00:10:54Yes, Craig!
00:10:56Or did you think I would never move on from you?
00:10:58Sign the papers!
00:11:00I can't sign them.
00:11:02Why not?
00:11:04There's something I have to tell you.
00:11:06Mommy!
00:11:12I can't sign them.
00:11:14Why not?
00:11:16Because we have a daughter together,
00:11:18and I never told you.
00:11:24You're finally approved.
00:11:28After all this time.
00:11:32You even remember?
00:11:38We're sorry.
00:11:40You have reached a number that has been disconnected
00:11:42or is no longer in service.
00:11:44Mommy!
00:11:46I'm sorry, but I'm not your mommy.
00:11:48Yes, you are.
00:11:50You are my mommy.
00:11:52Tell her, Daddy.
00:11:54Craig, what is she talking about?
00:11:56Natalie, why don't you go grab the nets?
00:11:58Because I said we'd go catch bullfrogs, remember?
00:12:00Okay. Is Mommy coming with us?
00:12:02No, Mommy and Daddy need to have a chat.
00:12:04All right?
00:12:06Okay, Daddy.
00:12:10Want to tell me what the hell is going on?
00:12:12Well...
00:12:18Allie didn't come here to get back together.
00:12:20She came here to divorce me,
00:12:22and I have to let her move on.
00:12:28I tracked you down
00:12:30in the library in New York,
00:12:32and you were there with another guy.
00:12:36You looked happy.
00:12:38You looked free.
00:12:42Well?
00:12:44Um...
00:12:46You know kids.
00:12:48Act of imagination.
00:12:50She thinks every woman who comes on the farm is her mom.
00:12:52All right, listen.
00:12:54Just leave the papers on the counter,
00:12:56and I'll sign them.
00:12:58I have a flight back to New York in three hours,
00:13:00and I am not leaving here
00:13:02without these papers signed.
00:13:04Well, I'm not signing them
00:13:06until I read them over first.
00:13:08Why?
00:13:10It's not like you have anything that I want.
00:13:12What do you have that I could possibly want?
00:13:16I'm ready, Daddy.
00:13:18Okay, um...
00:13:20I promise I'll sign them, okay?
00:13:22I know better than to trust your promises, Craig.
00:13:24I got one for you, too, Mommy.
00:13:26Uh...
00:13:28So, Miss Allie is going back to New York,
00:13:30so it's just gonna be you and me, kiddo.
00:13:32Like always.
00:13:34Okay.
00:13:36I am sorry.
00:13:38I'm sorry. Just leave them in the living room.
00:13:40I'll sign them.
00:14:08Oh, no, no!
00:14:10Wait!
00:14:12Ugh!
00:14:14Ugh!
00:14:16Ugh!
00:14:18Ugh!
00:14:20Ugh!
00:14:24Ugh!
00:14:26No cell service still?
00:14:28Ugh!
00:14:30Guess I'm walking.
00:14:32Mommy, help!
00:14:34Daddy's hurt.
00:14:38What happened?
00:14:40Daddy got bit by a big snake.
00:14:44Cobra?
00:14:46Mm-hmm.
00:14:50Daddy!
00:14:54You still remember how to draw out snake venom?
00:14:56Well, I haven't forgotten everything you taught me, Craig Brody.
00:15:04Here, keep the pressure on.
00:15:06Okay.
00:15:08Your daddy will be fine.
00:15:10I promise.
00:15:18Hold still.
00:15:22Okay.
00:15:24Keep the pressure on.
00:15:32So, your daughter...
00:15:34She looks about...
00:15:36Seven years old.
00:15:40So she's Trista's?
00:15:42No, she's yours.
00:15:46She's yours.
00:15:48So, if she's not Trista's,
00:15:50how many other women were you sleeping with while we were together?
00:15:54I don't care if you were with the entire town.
00:15:56Just, um, sign the papers, Craig,
00:15:58and we can put this sham of marriage behind us.
00:16:00You've gotta be kidding me.
00:16:02Where did they go?
00:16:04Daddy's had this photo in his nightstand
00:16:06for seven years,
00:16:08which means he still loves her.
00:16:10And if they loved each other once,
00:16:12they can love each other again.
00:16:14They just need another chance.
00:16:26Where are the divorce papers?
00:16:28No.
00:16:32Oh.
00:16:38I will check into the Pequoy Inn for tonight.
00:16:40Oh.
00:16:42And we can look for the divorce papers tomorrow.
00:16:44The Pequoy closed years ago.
00:16:46There was always your father's.
00:16:48That's, um, not an option.
00:16:52The way she said that,
00:16:54did something happen between her and her father?
00:16:56Well,
00:16:58unless you want to stay outside,
00:17:00I guess you're stuck here.
00:17:06I guess you're stuck here.
00:17:10Fine, but I'm not staying in your room.
00:17:12Wouldn't dream of it.
00:17:16You can stay in my room with me and Lucy.
00:17:18There you go.
00:17:20Thanks.
00:17:30Wow, I love your room.
00:17:32Thanks. My dad helped me decorate it.
00:17:44Okay, look.
00:17:46Oh my god.
00:17:48I know it hasn't been easy
00:17:50trying to start a family,
00:17:52but one day,
00:17:54the adoption will go through.
00:17:56We're going to have that baby,
00:17:58and you will be
00:18:00the most amazing mom.
00:18:16Good night.
00:18:28Good night, sweetheart.
00:18:32That logo,
00:18:34it's from the adoption agency.
00:18:36Is Natalie my daughter?
00:18:38That logo,
00:18:40it's from the adoption agency.
00:18:42Is Natalie my daughter?
00:18:46I guess I'm just remembering things wrong.
00:19:16I guess I'm just remembering things wrong.
00:19:42Nothing I haven't seen before.
00:19:46Nothing I haven't seen before.
00:19:52Do you know where McPaley went?
00:19:54No, I haven't seen her.
00:19:56Do you think she left us, daddy?
00:19:58You know what?
00:20:00Just give me five minutes,
00:20:02and I'll help you look, okay, sweetie?
00:20:04Okay, daddy.
00:20:16Okay.
00:20:26Craig,
00:20:28I'm engaged to someone else.
00:20:30You're not so married
00:20:32to me.
00:20:36How could this get
00:20:38any messier?
00:20:40Well,
00:20:44I should go.
00:21:00Hey.
00:21:02Hey.
00:21:04So I found the divorce papers.
00:21:06Oh.
00:21:08Natalie!
00:21:10I think she wants to keep us married.
00:21:12Would that be such
00:21:14a bad thing?
00:21:18Hello!
00:21:20I brought scones!
00:21:24What the hell are you doing here?
00:21:28Craig and Trista are
00:21:30still together?
00:21:32I mean, hi, baby.
00:21:34I hope I'm not interrupting anything.
00:21:36What a pleasant surprise.
00:21:38Hallie?
00:21:40Uh, excuse me.
00:21:44What the fuck are you doing
00:21:46here?
00:21:48It's none of your business.
00:21:50Actually, where Craig's concerned,
00:21:52it is.
00:21:54So, you and Craig
00:21:56are still together?
00:21:58We're not going anywhere
00:22:00together, Trista.
00:22:02It still belongs to Hallie,
00:22:04and it always will.
00:22:06Still together?
00:22:08Why, of course we're still together.
00:22:10We've been inseparable.
00:22:12Ever since that day at the airport,
00:22:14the day that Craig chose me over you.
00:22:16Don't tell me you've forgotten.
00:22:20How could I?
00:22:22It was the worst day of my life.
00:22:24Oh, sorry to hear that.
00:22:26Because it was a pretty good day for me.
00:22:28I'm sure it was.
00:22:30Listen, if you're here to win Craig back,
00:22:32it's too late.
00:22:34Because I'm pretty sure he's planning on proposing to me.
00:22:36Any day now.
00:22:38So I need you to get your skinny little ass
00:22:40out of my town. Okay?
00:22:42Come here.
00:22:44Take a pastry for the road.
00:22:46I insist.
00:22:50Eat it.
00:22:52Because it's the closest you'll get to tasting
00:22:54Craig's mouth ever again.
00:22:56Oh my god!
00:23:00You New York bitch!
00:23:10You think you can just waltz back in here
00:23:12and pick up where you left off?
00:23:14Craig will always choose me over you.
00:23:20What the hell is going on here?
00:23:22Help!
00:23:24My ankle!
00:23:26My ankle!
00:23:28That crazy bitch!
00:23:30Like I said,
00:23:32he will always choose me over you.
00:23:34Are you okay?
00:23:36Why are you asking her?
00:23:38I'm the one who's injured.
00:23:42All I did was offer her a scone
00:23:44and then she called it dog food
00:23:46and then she kicked me.
00:23:50Poor little thing.
00:23:52I got scone all over you.
00:23:54It's okay, Hallie. I forgive you.
00:23:56Even if you did break my leg.
00:23:58I didn't touch you.
00:24:00You need to put your petty jealousy aside.
00:24:02Craig divorced you for a reason.
00:24:04And coming back here
00:24:06to beg for him back is just
00:24:08pathetic.
00:24:10Actually, I didn't divorce Hallie.
00:24:12She's still my wife.
00:24:14What?
00:24:16Hallie is still
00:24:18my wife.
00:24:20You just insulted her in her own house
00:24:22so please leave
00:24:24Trista.
00:24:26Wait, baby. This is just one big misunderstanding.
00:24:28You heard my daddy. Get out of our house
00:24:30before we call the cops.
00:24:34Oh my god, ew. What is that disgusting creature?
00:24:36I'm gonna vomit.
00:24:38Good job, Lucy.
00:24:40You know what?
00:24:42I should go. Hallie.
00:24:44I'm sorry.
00:24:48It was nice meeting you, Natalie.
00:24:50I'm sorry.
00:24:58Lulu, call me back.
00:25:02Hallie.
00:25:04You know, I never understood why he left me for Trista.
00:25:06Of all people.
00:25:08You knew I couldn't stand her.
00:25:10That's why I did it.
00:25:12I knew it would hurt you the most.
00:25:14God, seeing her again
00:25:16just reminded me of the
00:25:18worst day of my life.
00:25:20Hallie,
00:25:22there's something I need to tell you about Trista.
00:25:26I don't want to talk about Trista anymore, okay?
00:25:28I have to take this.
00:25:30Lulu, can you email me another copy
00:25:32of the divorce papers ASAP?
00:25:34Another copy? What happened to the originals?
00:25:36It's a
00:25:38long story.
00:25:40Can you do it?
00:25:42It's Saturday.
00:25:44City Hall is closed until Monday.
00:25:46You're gonna need a certified copy.
00:25:48I think you're gonna have to stay the week in there, boss.
00:25:50I hope that's not a big problem.
00:25:52No.
00:25:54Of course not.
00:25:56Well, looks like I am staying until Monday
00:25:58until I can get a new copy of the divorce papers.
00:26:00I don't have anything.
00:26:02Not a change of clothes.
00:26:04Not even a toothbrush.
00:26:06Can you just drive me to the store?
00:26:08Okay.
00:26:10Hey, Miss Hallie is staying.
00:26:28Stop looking at him
00:26:30like that, Hallie.
00:26:32You can't have feelings for him.
00:26:34Even if he is
00:26:36your husband.
00:26:44I can't believe how
00:26:46bad the town looks.
00:26:48When the factory
00:26:50closed, half the stores went
00:26:52with it. At least Martha's Diner
00:26:54is still here. Martha Mae makes
00:26:56the best burgers in the world.
00:26:58Yeah.
00:27:00Remember our crazy dream
00:27:02to fix this place up?
00:27:04Of course I do.
00:27:06So?
00:27:08You probably have big plans
00:27:10after graduation.
00:27:12I'm applying to an architecture program in Paris.
00:27:14I doubt I'll get in, though.
00:27:16It's really competitive.
00:27:18Of course you will. I mean,
00:27:20they'd be fools not to take you.
00:27:22You think so?
00:27:24Oh, yeah. I know so.
00:27:26Well, after that, I want to come back here.
00:27:28Fix this town up.
00:27:30I am pretty good.
00:27:32How about a partner?
00:27:38Sounds perfect.
00:27:40Man, I could
00:27:42really go for a burger right now.
00:27:44I have an idea.
00:27:48Where are you taking me, Craig Brody?
00:27:52A picnic.
00:27:54Just like old times.
00:27:56Allow me.
00:27:58Oh!
00:28:02I hate you, Hallie!
00:28:08Wow, it's
00:28:10just like in high school.
00:28:12Still looks the same, doesn't it?
00:28:14And feels the same.
00:28:16I love you,
00:28:18Hallie Bildner.
00:28:20I want you to know
00:28:22I will never, ever
00:28:24hurt you.
00:28:26I'm so sorry for hurting you,
00:28:28Hallie.
00:28:30Hallie.
00:28:32Adelaide and I
00:28:34were supposed to eat these on our
00:28:36fishing trip.
00:28:38I don't think she'll forgive me.
00:28:42Triangles?
00:28:44Just what you told me.
00:28:46It's Natalie's favorite way to eat them, too.
00:28:48Oh, I have to take this.
00:28:50Hey.
00:28:52Hallie, the press wants to know why
00:28:54we haven't been seen together.
00:28:56They think we broke up.
00:28:58Now.
00:29:02I can't yet.
00:29:04I need to get new divorce papers
00:29:06and the city hall is closed until Monday.
00:29:08New divorce papers? What?
00:29:10Your location says you're at your old high school.
00:29:12What the hell is going on?
00:29:14It's...
00:29:16complicated.
00:29:18No, it is not complicated!
00:29:20Okay, look.
00:29:22I am pulling in a favor from the governor.
00:29:24We're gonna get those papers expedited
00:29:26and we're gonna force that husband of yours
00:29:28into signing them if we have to.
00:29:30I need you on the next flight back
00:29:32in an hour.
00:29:34That's not gonna be a problem, is it?
00:29:38Of course not.
00:29:44I have to go.
00:29:48You wouldn't mind taking me to the airport, would you?
00:29:50Of course not.
00:29:56Okay.
00:30:00Just...
00:30:02sign the papers when you get them, Craig.
00:30:04It's the least you can do.
00:30:06This is my last chance
00:30:08to tell her the truth.
00:30:10Well...
00:30:12Goodbye, I guess.
00:30:14Hallie, I...
00:30:16No, Craig. No, I'm done waiting.
00:30:18It's time for me to move on.
00:30:20Hello?
00:30:22What?
00:30:24Are you sure?
00:30:26Okay. Okay.
00:30:28Um, it's...
00:30:30my father.
00:30:32He's had a stroke. He's at the community hospital.
00:30:34Come on. I'll drive you.
00:30:38Unless you're getting on that flight.
00:30:40No.
00:30:42No, of course not.
00:30:44Good, good, good. Come on.
00:30:46What's going on?
00:30:48The neighbor found him this morning on the lawn.
00:30:50Hallie, I didn't expect to see you here.
00:30:52Is he going to be okay?
00:30:54We're doing the best we can,
00:30:56but it's difficult, considering his condition.
00:30:58His condition?
00:31:00Your father's dying, Hallie,
00:31:02of kidney failure.
00:31:06How long does he have?
00:31:08A couple weeks. Maybe a month.
00:31:10I hope we're playing it safe.
00:31:12I don't know.
00:31:14A couple weeks. Maybe a month.
00:31:16I hope we're planning on sticking around this time.
00:31:18Excuse me.
00:31:24I had no idea.
00:31:26You didn't?
00:31:28When's the last time you saw him?
00:31:32Seven years ago.
00:31:38Hallie?
00:31:40Craig's divorcing me.
00:31:42He's been cheating on me.
00:31:44I knew that bastard wasn't good enough for you.
00:31:46But at least you found out
00:31:48before he followed you to Paris.
00:31:50No, I'm not going to Paris.
00:31:52I can't get on that plane.
00:31:54What?
00:31:56Craig was right.
00:31:58I'm not a real architect.
00:32:00Everyone's going to laugh at me.
00:32:02You get on that plane, Hallie.
00:32:04But, Daddy, I...
00:32:06If you come back now, you'll be a laughingstock.
00:32:08You'll be a divorced loser.
00:32:10No one will want you. Not Craig.
00:32:12Not even me.
00:32:16Daddy.
00:32:18You get on that plane, Hallie.
00:32:20I never want to see you again.
00:32:22You are a disgrace.
00:32:34Nobody's ever been so mean to me.
00:32:36Except you.
00:32:38That is...
00:32:40God, it's like the two of you were in cahoots.
00:32:42Should I tell her that we were?
00:32:46If I tell her the truth,
00:32:48she'll never forgive her dying father.
00:32:50Didn't work out for the best, though.
00:32:54I mean, look at the life you've built for yourself.
00:32:56You deserve more than this small town.
00:33:00You and my father certainly made it easy to leave.
00:33:02What's going on?
00:33:04Our regret has been happening for weeks.
00:33:10Natalie?
00:33:12Daddy.
00:33:14I'm scared.
00:33:16It's dark and there's someone outside.
00:33:18I'll be right there.
00:33:20Keep the doors locked.
00:33:22I have to go.
00:33:24I'm coming with you.
00:33:26Hallie, this isn't something that...
00:33:28I'm coming with you.
00:33:30I'm sorry.
00:33:32Natalie?
00:33:34Oh my God.
00:33:36Oh my God.
00:33:38Oh my God.
00:33:40I was so scared.
00:33:42It's okay.
00:33:44It's okay. You're okay.
00:33:46Must have been raccoons
00:33:48broken through the window.
00:33:50Probably those scones, huh?
00:33:52Yeah.
00:33:54I'm so sorry for leaving you alone for so long.
00:33:56No, it's my fault.
00:33:58I don't know. I was happy to help, but...
00:34:02I think you missed your flight.
00:34:04So you're saying we can watch a movie together?
00:34:10Yes, we can.
00:34:14Miss Hallie,
00:34:16come closer.
00:34:20Daddy,
00:34:22come closer.
00:34:24Isn't this great?
00:34:26Just the three of us.
00:34:30This blanket always
00:34:32makes my daddy fall asleep.
00:34:54Oh my God.
00:35:02Oh my God.
00:35:10I love you, Hallie Brody.
00:35:14Why does this feel so...
00:35:16right?
00:35:18He's still my husband.
00:35:20And I know
00:35:22every freckle on his body.
00:35:24But no,
00:35:26I'm divorcing him
00:35:28and marrying someone else.
00:35:36Oh my God.
00:35:42Hallie.
00:35:46Mommy and Daddy,
00:35:48I made breakfast.
00:35:52Do you like it?
00:35:54I made pancakes.
00:35:56They are excellent, sweetie.
00:36:00This is what families do.
00:36:02They eat breakfast together.
00:36:08What's up?
00:36:14There's some stupid
00:36:16birthday invitation.
00:36:18All the kids from school will be there,
00:36:20but I'm not going.
00:36:22Why not?
00:36:24Because everyone always says
00:36:26if I had a mom,
00:36:28she'd help me pick up better gifts.
00:36:30And they say I'm just a momless loser.
00:36:32You are not
00:36:34a momless loser, Natalie.
00:36:36And don't let anyone make you feel
00:36:38less than you are.
00:36:42I grew up without a mom too, you know.
00:36:44And it was hard.
00:36:46But I was always able
00:36:48to rely on my dad.
00:36:50Just like you can.
00:36:54And by the way,
00:36:56your dad is worth
00:36:58a thousand mommies.
00:37:00It's true. She checked.
00:37:02So go to that party
00:37:04with your head held high.
00:37:06No one can take your power from you
00:37:08unless you let them.
00:37:12Okay, Miss Hallie.
00:37:14I'll go to the party. Thanks.
00:37:18No.
00:37:22Oh, no.
00:37:24Excuse me.
00:37:26I have to take this.
00:37:32I see you got my messages.
00:37:34Delete that photo,
00:37:36Trista.
00:37:38Which one? Because
00:37:40I have plenty.
00:37:42What's the problem?
00:37:44A rich fiancé isn't enough for you,
00:37:46so you have to come back and seduce
00:37:48your husband too. I didn't come here
00:37:50to get back with Craig, Trista.
00:37:52I came here to divorce him. Really?
00:37:54Then prove it.
00:37:56Walk away now and leave this town
00:37:58for good. Otherwise,
00:38:00these photos
00:38:02will go to the senator.
00:38:06I could ruin you, Hallie.
00:38:08So don't mess with my life,
00:38:10and I won't mess with yours.
00:38:16Hey.
00:38:18Everything okay?
00:38:20Fine.
00:38:22Who are you talking to?
00:38:24Oh, my fiancé's lawyer.
00:38:26He'll be by with new divorce papers.
00:38:30I have to go.
00:38:32Right now? Yes.
00:38:34I'm sorry, but yes.
00:38:36Can you call me a cab? Hallie.
00:38:38Call me a cab, Craig.
00:38:40Okay.
00:38:42Our plan didn't work, Lucy.
00:38:44I guess Mommy isn't in love
00:38:46with Daddy after all.
00:38:56Martha May?
00:38:58Hallie Builder, as I live
00:39:00and breathe!
00:39:02Oh, how are you so skinny?
00:39:04I thought that city of yours had a restaurant
00:39:06on every block. Oh, well, they do,
00:39:08but none of them make a burger as good as you do.
00:39:10Oh, well, that's nice to know
00:39:12I'll be remembered fondly, at least.
00:39:14What? Don't tell me you're shutting down.
00:39:16Yeah, I don't have a choice. Rent's gone up
00:39:18and I can't afford the place anymore.
00:39:20No, no, there must be
00:39:22something I can do.
00:39:24Mayor Diggle shut it down.
00:39:26Mayor Diggle.
00:39:30Dirk,
00:39:32I can't believe you're shutting down
00:39:34Martha's Diner. It's a town institution.
00:39:36Is it? Or are you just upset
00:39:38about it because you and your boyfriend, Craig,
00:39:40used to go there?
00:39:42This isn't high school anymore, Dirk,
00:39:44and this isn't a game.
00:39:46What is it going to take for you to leave the diner alone?
00:39:48Well, you know
00:39:50I've always liked you, so
00:39:52how about
00:39:54you and me handle this privately?
00:39:56I'll pay you
00:39:58twelve months' rent in advance.
00:40:02Listen, you think I want your money?
00:40:04No, I had something more interesting
00:40:06in mind. You!
00:40:08Listen,
00:40:10Craig was here to save you last time,
00:40:12but he's not here now.
00:40:14Looks like you're all alone, Hallie.
00:40:16No!
00:40:18Let go of my wife!
00:40:26Well, you two
00:40:28are under arrest
00:40:30for assaulting the mayor.
00:40:32You know the drill.
00:40:34This is just like how I used to arrest you
00:40:36when you was back in high school.
00:40:46Wife, huh?
00:40:48Some habits are hard to break.
00:40:52God, this is so not funny.
00:40:54Ned is running for senator.
00:40:56What will this look like if anyone finds out?
00:40:58And who's going to check a county jail
00:41:00in a nowhere town?
00:41:02I should have never come back here.
00:41:04I should have hired a lawyer.
00:41:06Then why didn't you?
00:41:08I think you wanted to see me.
00:41:10In your dreams.
00:41:12I have moved on to bigger and better things.
00:41:14Yeah, I heard about that.
00:41:16That neighborhood you shut down
00:41:18put six thousand people out of work.
00:41:20And the complex I built brought back
00:41:22ten thousand jobs.
00:41:24Yeah, for Ivy Leaguers and corporate types.
00:41:26What about the blue collars?
00:41:28Hmm? What about the people you came from?
00:41:30I've tried to forget where I came from.
00:41:32Okay?
00:41:34Isn't that what you wanted when you told me I don't belong here?
00:41:36I shouldn't have said that.
00:41:38No, you were right.
00:41:40I'm not the same girl you married.
00:41:42I've built a life.
00:41:44A career.
00:41:46I should thank you.
00:41:48Because I couldn't have done it without you.
00:41:50Alright, lovebirds.
00:41:52Your bail's been posted.
00:41:54You're free to go.
00:41:56Bail? By who?
00:41:58Hey, house.
00:42:02Ned.
00:42:08Hey, house.
00:42:10Ned.
00:42:14So, you must be Craig Rohde.
00:42:16The man who couldn't even sign
00:42:18a simple divorce paper.
00:42:20And you must be Ned Vogel.
00:42:22The man who thinks money can solve everything.
00:42:24Yeah, well, my money
00:42:26got you out of jail, didn't it?
00:42:28I didn't ask to be bailed out.
00:42:30Well, you can think of it as the government
00:42:32working for you.
00:42:34You can shove your government up your silver spoon.
00:42:36Guys, please stop.
00:42:38No, you're right.
00:42:40I'm not here to argue with a man who's
00:42:42holding on to the past.
00:42:46We got the divorce papers expedited.
00:42:48So, you can sign them, Craig.
00:42:52This nonsense has gone on long enough.
00:42:56Can I really divorce Hallie?
00:42:58Without her knowing about her own daughter?
00:43:02Sign the papers.
00:43:04Or we take you to court.
00:43:06But I gotta tell you,
00:43:08my lawyer's a shark.
00:43:10Say something, Hallie.
00:43:12Say something to stop this.
00:43:16Sign the papers, Craig.
00:43:20Let me go.
00:43:22It's the least you can do.
00:43:28Wonderful.
00:43:30We will get these filed
00:43:32at the town hall.
00:43:34And you will be divorced in an hour.
00:43:38This nonsense has gone on long enough.
00:43:40It's time for you to finally
00:43:42move on with your life, Hallie.
00:43:46Well, are you coming?
00:43:50Yes, of course.
00:43:52Bye.
00:43:58That
00:44:00is who she ended up with.
00:44:02I always thought it'd
00:44:04be you.
00:44:06You know, sometimes things don't
00:44:08work out the way we want them to.
00:44:10Hallie,
00:44:12what were you thinking? Jail?
00:44:14Are you trying
00:44:16to ruin my campaign?
00:44:18No, this has nothing to do with you.
00:44:20You are gonna be
00:44:22my wife.
00:44:24Everything you do
00:44:26reflects on me.
00:44:28Now, are there
00:44:30any other skeletons I should know about?
00:44:40No.
00:44:42Nothing.
00:44:46This town.
00:44:48It's just how you described it.
00:44:50Low class.
00:44:52Rundown.
00:44:54Depressing.
00:44:56It isn't that bad.
00:44:58Those were your words, Hallie.
00:45:00What's gotten into you?
00:45:02I don't know. Um, just
00:45:04being back here.
00:45:06Should I remind
00:45:08you how lucky you are to have gotten out?
00:45:12Last signature, Miss Bilner.
00:45:14And you'll be free and clear to be the wife of a Senny.
00:45:24Okay.
00:45:26Let's go.
00:45:32Fair wages, fair pay!
00:45:34We want to get us out today!
00:45:36Let us through. No 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.
00:45:50There you are, Mommy.
00:45:52Mommy?
00:45:58I knew you wanted to leave without me, Mommy.
00:46:00Mommy?
00:46:02You two have a kid together?
00:46:04No, no, no. Of course not.
00:46:06Natalie, come on. Miss Hallie has to go.
00:46:08No, no!
00:46:10I'm so sorry.
00:46:12I hate you! I hate both of you!
00:46:16Another reason why I'm glad I don't have kids.
00:46:18Look, we need to get these signed.
00:46:20What's it going to cost me to make it happen?
00:46:22Whoa!
00:46:24Is this a city senate official
00:46:26bribing a city employee?
00:46:30You see, I have my fair share of scandals,
00:46:32but this, this is bad.
00:46:36Hallie, I see you got a fancy new fiancé.
00:46:40What happened to your husband?
00:46:42Is he still locked away in jail?
00:46:44I think he means soon to be ex-husband.
00:46:46Ah.
00:46:48Your father got what he always wanted.
00:46:50You and Craig finally divorced.
00:46:54What do you mean what my father wanted?
00:46:58What do you mean what my father wanted?
00:47:00Wait a minute.
00:47:02Craig never told you...
00:47:04Hey! Keep it down.
00:47:06Or I'll write you up for a noise violation.
00:47:08How about you pay us what we're owed
00:47:10and not waste our tax dollars
00:47:12on fancy new firetrucks
00:47:14and cocktail parties?
00:47:16Mayor Sullivan never would have done anything.
00:47:18All right, listen.
00:47:20Mayor Sullivan is not in charge anymore.
00:47:22I am, all right?
00:47:24So please just keep it down.
00:47:26Fair wage is fair pay.
00:47:28Fair wage is fair pay.
00:47:30I'll sign that paper for you.
00:47:32Yeah, all right, good.
00:47:36Where's the rest of it?
00:47:38What?
00:47:40Well, I can't sign this without a custody agreement.
00:47:42A custody agreement?
00:47:44Sure, this child is just as much Hallie's as she is Craig's.
00:47:48You lied to me.
00:47:50No, no, no.
00:47:52I didn't. No, I swear.
00:47:54How is this even possible?
00:47:56Well, she's adopted.
00:47:58I mean, I did the paperwork myself.
00:48:00You're listed as parent number one.
00:48:02Geez, I would have thought he would have told you about it by now.
00:48:04This is not good.
00:48:06A husband is one thing, but a child?
00:48:08If this gets out, I am sunk.
00:48:10Right.
00:48:12I guess it's all with voters.
00:48:14Who said anything about a custody agreement?
00:48:16Hallie doesn't even want the kid, right, Hallie?
00:48:18I mean, you barely even know the child.
00:48:20She'll give up custody right now. Where do we sign?
00:48:22It's not that simple.
00:48:24In a case like this, when a child's involved,
00:48:26both parties have to attend a parenting class.
00:48:28The next one starts tomorrow.
00:48:30Tomorrow?
00:48:32I do not have time for this.
00:48:34I have to get back to New York before the press starts asking questions.
00:48:38Go.
00:48:40Go. I'll get this sorted out.
00:48:42Fine.
00:48:44Take care of this child and this marriage,
00:48:46quickly and quietly.
00:48:54Hallie.
00:48:56No! You were just going to let me divorce you,
00:48:58never knowing that Natalie's my daughter?
00:49:00Shh.
00:49:02The adoption went through
00:49:04after you left.
00:49:06You didn't think I deserved to know?
00:49:08You could have called,
00:49:10written anything.
00:49:12I tried.
00:49:14What?
00:49:16And you were there
00:49:18with another guy.
00:49:20You looked happy.
00:49:22You looked free.
00:49:24Seems you don't need me and Natalie anymore.
00:49:26And that's why you never told me
00:49:28that I had a daughter?
00:49:30You looked like you'd moved on.
00:49:32Moved on?
00:49:34It took me years
00:49:36to move on.
00:49:38And honestly,
00:49:42I don't know if I ever have.
00:49:44Forget it.
00:49:46It doesn't matter now, anyway.
00:49:48I don't care.
00:49:50I don't care.
00:49:52I don't care.
00:49:54It doesn't matter now, anyway.
00:49:58Here.
00:50:02Parenting class.
00:50:06We need to take it in order to get divorced.
00:50:08Custody.
00:50:10Co-parenting.
00:50:12Legally, Natalie is just as much
00:50:14mine as she is yours.
00:50:16You haven't spent any time with her.
00:50:18You didn't raise her.
00:50:20I know! And whose fault is that?
00:50:24Class is at 8 a.m. Don't be late!
00:50:30I knew Miss Haley was my mommy!
00:50:38Dad?
00:50:42Maya, what's going on?
00:50:50Daddy!
00:50:52He's okay.
00:50:54He's stabilized.
00:50:56Your old man's a fighter, Holly.
00:50:58And clearly he's fighting
00:51:00to see you again.
00:51:02No fighting to see me?
00:51:04No, if anything,
00:51:06he'd be pissed to know I'm back.
00:51:08My dad hates me.
00:51:10That's not possible.
00:51:12Holly, he talks about you all the time.
00:51:14He does?
00:51:16Yep. Every Monday and Thursday at dialysis.
00:51:18That's how I know about
00:51:20your fancy job
00:51:22and your fancy boyfriend.
00:51:24None of this makes any sense.
00:51:26Holly, are you okay?
00:51:30Yeah, today's just been
00:51:32a lot.
00:51:34Maya, did you know
00:51:36that Natalie's
00:51:38my daughter?
00:51:42My shift ends in five minutes.
00:51:44Do you want to grab a drink?
00:51:47Craig has never revealed
00:51:49who Natalie's mother was,
00:51:51but he's never been with anyone
00:51:53since you, so we figured...
00:51:55Wait a second.
00:51:57He's never been with anyone since me?
00:51:59No, he left me for Trista.
00:52:01I saw him.
00:52:03Trista? She'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!
00:52:14No way.
00:52:24Excuse me, Maya.
00:52:26I need to get to the bottom of this.
00:52:37Good to see you, Holly.
00:52:39I know the truth.
00:52:41You were never with Trista.
00:52:43You should tell me the truth about everything.
00:52:45Right now.
00:52:51Amy Ford,
00:52:53if you win,
00:52:55I'll tell you.
00:53:04Looks like Big City Living
00:53:06has indulged your aim at all.
00:53:08No, if anything, it made me sharper.
00:53:14You two are playing like your lives depend on it.
00:53:22Well,
00:53:24kinda do.
00:53:29Oops.
00:53:34If you do that again,
00:53:36I might just have to take you right here on the table.
00:53:39Too bad I'm engaged.
00:53:41What are you playing at, Holly?
00:53:43I deserve the truth.
00:53:45Maya,
00:53:47you came here to divorce me.
00:53:49What good would the truth do?
00:53:51I'll be the one to decide that.
00:54:07Now,
00:54:09now,
00:54:11bust up.
00:54:19You scratched.
00:54:23I win.
00:54:25Thank you, ladies.
00:54:27But I gotta go.
00:54:29I have an early start.
00:54:31Maybe I can find some clues in my father's room.
00:54:37Why didn't my father tell me he was sick?
00:54:39And why won't anyone just tell me the truth?
00:54:45Oh my god.
00:54:51This will always belong to Holly.
00:54:57I'm sorry.
00:54:59This will always belong to Holly.
00:55:01And so do my heart.
00:55:03What is this doing here?
00:55:11What was this doing in my father's bedroom?
00:55:13Holly.
00:55:15Tell me, why was this in my father's room?
00:55:19Don't tell me you're about to propose, Holly.
00:55:21Trista?
00:55:23What are you doing here?
00:55:25Surprise, I'm teaching the course.
00:55:27It's time for the two of you to get divorced.
00:55:33I mean, this is what you both want, right?
00:55:35Of course.
00:55:37Allie, you are Natalie's mother after all.
00:55:41Yes, but she doesn't know it yet,
00:55:43so please keep this between us.
00:55:45I will always do you a favor, Craig.
00:55:47You know that.
00:55:49Okay, first topic.
00:55:51How to explain to your child
00:55:53why you're not together anymore.
00:55:55Simple.
00:55:57Her father is a lying, manipulative jerk
00:55:59who hid the fact that I had a daughter for five years.
00:56:03Not to mention whatever other secrets he's keeping.
00:56:05And what would you have done
00:56:07if I'd come up to you in the library that day?
00:56:09Allie, be honest.
00:56:11You're starting a new life somewhere else.
00:56:13Because you made me believe there was nothing left for me here.
00:56:15So what are you gonna do?
00:56:17You gonna take Natalie to New York?
00:56:19Maybe.
00:56:21She belongs here.
00:56:23I'm going to New York with
00:56:25Central Air and Au Pair
00:56:27and I will be damned
00:56:29if I let Ned Vogel be my daughter's stepfather.
00:56:31Jealous.
00:56:33Craig, you know of all the things Ned is,
00:56:35he's never lied to me.
00:56:37Never torn my world apart without so much as an explanation.
00:56:39You want an explanation?
00:56:41Yeah.
00:56:43I'll give you one.
00:56:45I did lie to you that day when I told you that I didn't love you anymore.
00:56:47I'm done here.
00:56:51I knew he was still in love with you.
00:56:53I knew it.
00:56:55You just came here and you ruined everything like I knew you would.
00:56:57Ruined what exactly?
00:56:59I know the truth, Trista.
00:57:01You and Craig were never together.
00:57:05And that's about to change, sweetie.
00:57:07Once those divorce papers are finalized,
00:57:09Craig will have no choice but to choose me.
00:57:11Besides, Natalie needs a mother.
00:57:13You want to be Natalie.
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,
00:57:25her father and I deserve some alone time.
00:57:27I mean, don't you think?
00:57:29Don't you dare.
00:57:35Go back to New York, Hallie.
00:57:37None of this concerns of you anymore.
00:57:39I think I'll go comfort your husband now.
00:57:41Oh,
00:57:43he looks upset.
00:58:01Let me out!
00:58:03Somebody!
00:58:07I'm so sorry about that.
00:58:09I 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.
00:58:15It was unfair.
00:58:17I need to apologize.
00:58:19Do you? Because you and I both know what Hallie would have chosen all those years ago.
00:58:21And it wouldn't have been you and Matt.
00:58:23I don't, because I never gave her the chance.
00:58:25I did.
00:58:27What?
00:58:29All those years ago,
00:58:31I told her about Natalie.
00:58:33I
00:58:37I don't understand.
00:58:39I care about you, Craig.
00:58:41And I would never, ever
00:58:43lie to you.
00:58:45I told her that you had a daughter together.
00:58:47And she never even tried to contact you.
00:58:49Did she?
00:58:55I'm so sorry I didn't tell you before,
00:58:57but I was just trying to protect you.
00:58:59She said that the last thing that she wanted was a daughter with you.
00:59:01She said that?
00:59:03Yes.
00:59:05In fact,
00:59:07she said that she didn't want any kids at all.
00:59:09Hallie was born to be a mother.
00:59:11That's all she's ever wanted.
00:59:13Is it?
00:59:15This is from the judge.
00:59:17She's planning on giving up full custody.
00:59:19She's going to New York.
00:59:21She has no interest in fighting for you or Natalie.
00:59:23But I do.
00:59:32What are you doing?
00:59:34I'm just trying
00:59:36to help you move on, Craig.
00:59:38Hallie will never choose you.
00:59:40But I will.
00:59:42It's not going to happen, Trista.
00:59:44It's not.
00:59:46Natalie needs a mother.
00:59:48You know it, and I know it.
00:59:50You need to move on, Craig, and come back to reality.
00:59:54Hallie?
00:59:57What did you do to her?
00:59:59Nothing!
01:00:01This was a mistake.
01:00:03Having you help me out all those years ago
01:00:05is the biggest regret of my life.
01:00:07It's never going to happen,
01:00:09no matter what happens with me and Hallie.
01:00:17You want to play it like that?
01:00:19So be it.
01:00:25Hi!
01:00:27Can I speak to Senator Ned Vogel, please?
01:00:33Are you okay?
01:00:35Don't.
01:00:37Why do you care, Craig?
01:00:39Is everything you tell me a lie?
01:00:41What?
01:00:43I saw you kissing Trista!
01:00:45Don't try and deny it.
01:00:47You told me you loved me.
01:00:49I don't believe a word you say.
01:00:51Hallie, please, please believe me.
01:00:53That was a mistake.
01:00:55I'm back here.
01:00:57I don't know what I thought I'd find.
01:00:59But now I know.
01:01:01I dodged a bullet
01:01:03seven years ago.
01:01:07Hi!
01:01:09I'd like to inform Senator Ned Vogel
01:01:11that his perfect little fiancé
01:01:13is cheating on him
01:01:15with her husband.
01:01:17Don't worry.
01:01:19I have pictures to prove it.
01:01:21No, this isn't a prank phone call.
01:01:23I have proof.
01:01:27What?
01:01:29No, I'm not lying.
01:01:31Hello?
01:01:33Hello?
01:01:35I guess I'll just have to go to
01:01:37the New York Post with this one.
01:01:39You're buried, Hallie.
01:01:43Ned, hi.
01:01:45Hallie, great news.
01:01:47I just got off the phone with my lawyer.
01:01:49He said because you're giving up custody,
01:01:51parenting class is unnecessary.
01:01:53So, you can sign the papers today
01:01:55and you'll be divorced by tomorrow.
01:01:57Tomorrow?
01:01:59Yeah.
01:02:01I already got us scheduled for a gala Saturday
01:02:03and a fundraising brunch on Sunday.
01:02:05I can't wait to get you back on my arm
01:02:07in 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...
01:02:15What about Natalie?
01:02:17My daughter?
01:02:19What are you going to do, Hallie?
01:02:21Bring the kid with you to New York?
01:02:23Co-parent with your ex?
01:02:25No.
01:02:27Look, if we want to have a baby,
01:02:29we can have a baby together.
01:02:31But I'm not going to raise someone else's kids, okay?
01:02:33Just sign over the custody and divorce him.
01:02:35Today.
01:02:37There's nothing there for you anymore, Hallie.
01:02:39Not anymore.
01:02:43You're right.
01:02:45There's nothing left for me here.
01:02:47Hallie...
01:02:49I'm giving up custody and going back to New York.
01:02:51You win, Craig.
01:02:53Win?
01:02:55You never wanted me to be a part of Natalie's life.
01:02:57Or yours.
01:03:01Well, congratulations. You got your wish.
01:03:03Hallie, please just hear me out.
01:03:05That's not the full story.
01:03:07There is nothing yet you can say that will change anything.
01:03:09The damage is done.
01:03:11Let's just...
01:03:13sign the papers and end this marriage.
01:03:17Party one agrees to give up full custody.
01:03:19Correct?
01:03:21That's right.
01:03:23Okay, so regarding the parental rights
01:03:25of Natalie Hallie Brody...
01:03:27What? Hallie?
01:03:29Her middle name is Hallie?
01:03:31She's your daughter, too.
01:03:33She's your daughter, too.
01:03:35Mommy!
01:03:37Oh, Michael.
01:03:39She belongs here.
01:03:41She belongs here.
01:03:43I'm not gonna raise someone else's kid.
01:03:47Ma'am.
01:03:49Please sign on the dotted line.
01:03:55It's really over.
01:04:11Now for the divorce papers.
01:04:21Is that it?
01:04:23Yes. Congratulations.
01:04:25In 24 hours,
01:04:27you'll be ex-husband and wife.
01:04:29It was nice being married to you,
01:04:31Hallie Bouldner.
01:04:35Wish I could say the same, Craig Brody.
01:04:41Lulu,
01:04:43I'll be back in the city by tonight.
01:04:45Rebook my meetings and
01:04:47get me a pedicure appointment.
01:04:49Thank God.
01:04:51I thought you were never coming back.
01:04:53But then I remembered.
01:04:55You're Hallie Bouldner.
01:04:57Your work is your life.
01:04:59My life.
01:05:01Right.
01:05:05By the way,
01:05:07did you ever do that favor I asked?
01:05:09The favor where I went to 50 different toy stores
01:05:11all over the city just for one
01:05:13special kid?
01:05:15Yes, I did.
01:05:17Which, might I ask,
01:05:19who is this special child?
01:05:23My daughter.
01:05:29A Monster Truck 300?
01:05:31This is the best
01:05:33present ever!
01:05:35Who's next?
01:05:37Damn, why don't you get Natalie's
01:05:39present over with? We all know it's gonna
01:05:41be the worst.
01:05:43Here it is! Look how
01:05:45tiny it is! Catch!
01:05:51It's probably a gum wrapper.
01:05:53We're happy to nap.
01:05:55She's so poor she probably can't
01:05:57afford anything else.
01:05:59Guys,
01:06:01be nice. At least it's not
01:06:03tree branch like last time.
01:06:05It was a
01:06:07walking stick and my dad made it.
01:06:09That's right, your dad!
01:06:11Because where's your mom again?
01:06:13That's right, nowhere!
01:06:17Oops, I hope it wasn't
01:06:19fragile.
01:06:25It's a friendship bracelet.
01:06:27Friendship? We're not friends.
01:06:29That's so sad.
01:06:31I can't
01:06:33believe you actually invited this freak
01:06:35to your party. My mom
01:06:37forced me to. If you had a mom,
01:06:39she'd help you pick out a real
01:06:41present, not this dumb piece of string.
01:06:43I do have a mom.
01:06:45Then, where
01:06:47is she? She lives in
01:06:49New York and she's a powerful CEO.
01:06:51Why do you make up a story like that?
01:06:53If your mom was a powerful CEO,
01:06:55she would give you better gifts than this!
01:06:59Momless loser!
01:07:01Momless loser!
01:07:03Momless loser!
01:07:05Momless loser!
01:07:07Momless loser!
01:07:09Momless loser!
01:07:11Momless loser!
01:07:13Nobody
01:07:15can take your power away from you
01:07:17except you. Don't ever
01:07:19forget that. You were wrong, Mommy.
01:07:21And you left me.
01:07:23You know what? Forget this!
01:07:31Hi.
01:07:33I have a delivery for
01:07:35Sam Baker. That's me!
01:07:39These must be
01:07:41for my uncle. He's
01:07:43super rich!
01:07:45Where do you think you're going?
01:07:47I never should have come. I'm getting out of here.
01:07:49Actually, you're gonna
01:07:51stay here and watch what real
01:07:53presents look like.
01:07:55Yeah, and maybe next time he'll come up
01:07:57with something better than a stupid piece of
01:07:59string. A pickleball racket?
01:08:01Nintendo Switch?
01:08:03A build your own bar kit?
01:08:05An e-scooter?
01:08:07A monster truck 400?
01:08:09This
01:08:11must cost a fortune!
01:08:13Uncle Rick
01:08:15is the best!
01:08:17Actually, these gifts are from Natalie's
01:08:19mom.
01:08:23My mommy.
01:08:25She does love me.
01:08:27This has to be a prank!
01:08:29Natalie is just lying about her mom!
01:08:31She isn't real! Well, someone
01:08:33very 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
01:08:43powerful CEO in New York,
01:08:45and she's too busy to care what you
01:08:47small-town losers think.
01:08:49Wait, no! Where are you going?
01:08:51It's okay. You can sit next
01:08:53to me. No!
01:08:55Sit next to me!
01:08:57I want to be friends with you if you pay me.
01:08:59Enjoy the presents,
01:09:01loser.
01:09:03And your cake is
01:09:05dry, by the way.
01:09:11Daddy.
01:09:15I don't know if you can hear me,
01:09:17but I wanted you to know I'm
01:09:19going back to New York.
01:09:21Okay? You were right about
01:09:23Patrick.
01:09:25He's a liar. And a cheat.
01:09:27To the man I'm about to marry.
01:09:31He's rich.
01:09:33Handsome.
01:09:35Successful.
01:09:37Exactly.
01:09:39The kind of man you would have wanted for me.
01:09:41I'll miss you.
01:09:43Okay?
01:09:47You're running towards something.
01:09:49Back to your life.
01:09:51Go! Your father's in good hands.
01:09:53I promise.
01:09:55Would you look after Natalie for me?
01:09:57Of course.
01:10:13Hi.
01:10:15Thank you, Ms. Bildner. First class is to the left.
01:10:17Thank you so much.
01:10:19Mommy!
01:10:21Natalie, what are you doing here?
01:10:23I'm coming with you to New York.
01:10:27The flight departs in one minute.
01:10:33Come on, Natalie.
01:10:35I'll take you home.
01:10:41Oh, my God.
01:10:43Where'd you find her?
01:10:45She was at the airport.
01:10:47Airport?
01:10:49I wanted to go to New York City with Mommy.
01:10:51She knows.
01:10:53I cried.
01:10:57Natalie, can you give us a minute?
01:10:59Okay, Daddy.
01:11:01Thank you for bringing her home.
01:11:03Of course.
01:11:05But, um, before I go,
01:11:07I have a favor to ask.
01:11:09Anything.
01:11:11Find Natalie a mother.
01:11:13Just make sure it's not Trista.
01:11:15Okay?
01:11:17Okay.
01:11:21Bye.
01:11:45After all these years,
01:11:47he never gave up on us.
01:11:49After all these years,
01:11:51he never gave up on us.
01:11:57You probably could have come up
01:11:59with something better.
01:12:01No, it's...
01:12:03perfect.
01:12:05How long have you been
01:12:07working on this?
01:12:09A few years now.
01:12:11A few years now.
01:12:15Ever since I left?
01:12:17Maybe.
01:12:19But...
01:12:21why?
01:12:23I couldn't let our dream die
01:12:25just because our marriage did.
01:12:27That crazy dream?
01:12:31It doesn't look so crazy anymore, does it?
01:12:33No, it doesn't.
01:12:35Ellie,
01:12:37not a day goes by
01:12:39that I don't think about you.
01:12:41And I know, I know
01:12:43you won't believe a word I say,
01:12:45but I thought
01:12:47maybe you'd believe something you could see.
01:12:55Is that...
01:12:57us?
01:12:59Yeah, it is.
01:13:01I love you.
01:13:07I love you.
01:13:09And I never stopped.
01:13:25I've missed this
01:13:27for so long.
01:13:29I've wanted this for so long.
01:13:31No.
01:13:33No, we have to stop.
01:13:37But the papers are signed, Craig.
01:13:39I'm engaged to someone else.
01:13:41And it's too late to turn the clock back now.
01:13:47Send me a picture when the town's rebuilt, okay?
01:13:49That's the thing, it...
01:13:51it won't be.
01:13:53What? What do you mean?
01:13:55Got this in the mail today.
01:13:57My plans were approved,
01:13:59but Dirk Diggle
01:14:01brought up all the local contractors
01:14:03and I can't afford anyone else, so
01:14:05I'm going to have to
01:14:07rescind my offer.
01:14:09No, you can't do that.
01:14:11I have to. I don't have a choice.
01:14:13What if I said
01:14:15I could help?
01:14:19I could help.
01:14:21Go back
01:14:23to New York.
01:14:25Don't worry about someone's
01:14:27tiny little dream in a
01:14:29nowhere town.
01:14:31This was our dream, Craig.
01:14:35Besides,
01:14:37you helped me out with Dirk Diggle once.
01:14:41She said she's not interested, bro!
01:14:45Now let me help you.
01:14:51Okay.
01:14:55Lulu!
01:14:57Um, change of plans.
01:14:59Send all of our
01:15:01best contractors to Franklin, Tennessee.
01:15:03Also, cancel my pedicure appointment.
01:15:11Have you come to withdraw your application, Craig?
01:15:13I knew you couldn't afford it.
01:15:15Actually, I just came to give you
01:15:17the deposit.
01:15:19We break ground tomorrow.
01:15:23We?
01:15:25We said we would fix this town up.
01:15:27And that is exactly
01:15:29what we're going to do.
01:15:33I never thought I'd see the day
01:15:35where our dream became a reality.
01:15:37It was always your dream.
01:15:39I was just happy to help.
01:15:43Lulu!
01:15:45Oh my god!
01:15:47No wonder you never came back.
01:15:49You never told me your husband
01:15:51was a stone-cold hottie.
01:15:53Ex-husband.
01:15:55Right.
01:15:59Hallie.
01:16:01Ned! Hi.
01:16:03Um, what are you
01:16:05doing here? I told you I would be back next week.
01:16:07You wanna tell me what the meaning of this
01:16:09is?
01:16:13You told me
01:16:15there was nothing going on between you two.
01:16:17Are you trying to embarrass me
01:16:19on a national stage?
01:16:21No, um, no. Ned, I am so sorry.
01:16:23Is your campaign
01:16:25okay? It's fine.
01:16:27For now.
01:16:29Luckily, this is just a mock-up.
01:16:31Post gave it to us before going to press.
01:16:33Get in.
01:16:35I am taking you home.
01:16:37Ned, I told you
01:16:39this project is important.
01:16:41Hallie, you build multi-billion dollar skyscrapers.
01:16:43Not whatever this is.
01:16:45This
01:16:47matters. A sad little
01:16:49shopping mall in a sad little town?
01:16:51Come on, Hallie.
01:16:53You're better than this.
01:16:55What's that supposed
01:16:57to mean? Being back here
01:16:59has you confused.
01:17:01You don't know what you want.
01:17:03You don't know who you really are anymore.
01:17:05But this
01:17:07is your past.
01:17:09I am your future.
01:17:11Remember?
01:17:13You still want to marry me?
01:17:15Even after that?
01:17:17Yes. In fact, I want to move the wedding up.
01:17:19Let's get married right now.
01:17:25Let's get married right now.
01:17:27Right now?
01:17:29Um...
01:17:31Excuse me.
01:17:33Hey.
01:17:35Seeing these photos,
01:17:37it made me realize
01:17:39what you mean to me.
01:17:41I can't lose you, Hallie.
01:17:43I don't want to lose you.
01:17:45Please, marry me.
01:17:49You're gonna marry her?
01:17:51She was cheating
01:17:53on you.
01:17:55Who are you?
01:17:57I'm the woman that took these photos.
01:17:59So, you admit
01:18:01to sabotaging a political campaign.
01:18:03What?
01:18:05No.
01:18:07The senator doesn't press charges.
01:18:09Come with me.
01:18:11What? No, no, no.
01:18:13You will not win this one, Hallie.
01:18:15No, don't touch me.
01:18:17Ned, this all just
01:18:19feels a little fast.
01:18:21Yeah, but is it, Hallie?
01:18:23What are we waiting for?
01:18:27What are we waiting for?
01:18:31I don't know.
01:18:33Quit fucking around
01:18:35What's the rush, Ned?
01:18:37The Post agreed to kill the cheating story
01:18:39if we give them something better.
01:18:43Something like...
01:18:45A wedding, for example.
01:18:47You want to marry me
01:18:49for a story?
01:18:51Come on, Hallie.
01:18:53We're gonna get married anyway.
01:18:55What difference does it make?
01:18:57Was this whole thing just a publicity stunt?
01:18:59Our engagement?
01:19:01Our relationship?
01:19:03No, of course not.
01:19:05I love you.
01:19:07Then what's my favorite color, Ned?
01:19:09Oh, come on, Hallie.
01:19:11My favorite flower?
01:19:15My favorite flower?
01:19:17I don't know. Roses? Does it even matter?
01:19:19Yes, it does.
01:19:23I'm sorry,
01:19:25Ned, but I can't
01:19:27marry you.
01:19:29Yes, you can.
01:19:31No, you don't.
01:19:33I can make your life very difficult.
01:19:35Starting with those big city contracts
01:19:37you just won.
01:19:39I spent years of blood, sweat, and tears
01:19:41to get those contracts.
01:19:43Once I'm elected, I can make them all go poof.
01:19:45I have friends in very
01:19:47high places, Hallie.
01:19:49No, you wouldn't dare.
01:19:51I worked my entire career for those.
01:19:53Well, then the answer is simple.
01:19:55Marry me
01:19:57or lose everything.
01:19:59Come on, Hallie. This is not
01:20:01a difficult choice.
01:20:03You're hurting me.
01:20:05If you think this is pain, you haven't felt anything yet.
01:20:07Neither have you.
01:20:19My suit.
01:20:21My jaw.
01:20:23You burned my face.
01:20:25Good.
01:20:27Better that way, in my opinion.
01:20:29I'll have you arrested for assaulting a government official.
01:20:31There isn't a cop
01:20:33who will side with you over me.
01:20:35Not in this town.
01:20:37By the way,
01:20:39her favorite color is blue
01:20:41and her favorite flower
01:20:43is the marigold because it blooms from spring to fall.
01:20:47There you go.
01:20:49I hope that suit wasn't too expensive.
01:20:51This suit is worth more than you make in a year.
01:20:53Isn't that something?
01:20:55It is.
01:20:57It's time for you to leave, Senator.
01:20:59Come on, Hallie.
01:21:01You're not going to give up everything
01:21:03just for some pathetic small-town nobody.
01:21:05Yeah, he may be from a small town,
01:21:07but he is not
01:21:09a nobody.
01:21:11In fact, if I had to choose
01:21:13a son-in-law, I'd pick him over you
01:21:15any day of the week.
01:21:17Daddy.
01:21:19Hallie, I am so sorry
01:21:21for everything.
01:21:23Starting with meddling in your marriage.
01:21:25Meddling?
01:21:27I'm the one that made Craig divorce you.
01:21:29I told him if he really
01:21:31loved you, he'd let you go.
01:21:33He did.
01:21:37I thought you deserved more
01:21:39than a small town, more than a
01:21:41local boy like him.
01:21:43She does, sir.
01:21:45Come on, Hallie.
01:21:47He divorced you.
01:21:49He gave up a daughter for you.
01:21:51So 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.
01:22:03You stay away from my daughter.
01:22:05Hallie, I am not leaving.
01:22:07You owe it to me to go through with this wedding.
01:22:09I've had about enough
01:22:11of people telling me who I should and shouldn't marry.
01:22:17Get out of here, Ned.
01:22:19It's over between us.
01:22:23Get out of here, Ned.
01:22:25It's over between us.
01:22:29Fine.
01:22:31I hope you know what you're giving up, Hallie.
01:22:35I most certainly do.
01:22:41It was too big anyway.
01:22:45Wait, wait, wait!
01:22:47What about me?
01:22:49I'll marry you.
01:22:51I'm sure the Post would love to see me at a wedding gown.
01:22:55And I would look way better than Hallie ever would.
01:22:57Not in a million years.
01:22:59Oh, my gosh!
01:23:01Ew!
01:23:03Ew, ew, ew, ew!
01:23:05Oh, my gosh.
01:23:07I can't see me like this.
01:23:13I owe you both an apology for trying to play God.
01:23:15Daddy.
01:23:17Hear me out.
01:23:19When I was in the hospital, I hooked up to all those machines.
01:23:21I just kept having
01:23:23the same wonderful dream.
01:23:25This dream where
01:23:27you were still together.
01:23:29This dream where you were both
01:23:31living the life you deserve.
01:23:33I took that future and that life
01:23:35away from you.
01:23:37Hallie,
01:23:39Craig never wanted to divorce you.
01:23:41How?
01:23:43This should be enough for me.
01:23:45I want her on that plane
01:23:47alone.
01:23:49Whatever it takes.
01:23:51I tried to pay him off.
01:23:55And this is what he did with the money.
01:23:59I've never seen someone work so hard for love.
01:24:03Is this true, Craig?
01:24:05Mm-hmm.
01:24:07Why didn't you just tell me?
01:24:09Because I didn't want you to hate your father
01:24:11or blame him when you just thought
01:24:13he was doing what was right.
01:24:15You were protecting me.
01:24:17That's right.
01:24:19You two are the only family you have left.
01:24:23Unless...
01:24:27You let me be a part of your family again.
01:24:31I'm sorry.
01:24:33You let me be a part of your family again?
01:24:37Now, I know
01:24:39this ring isn't exactly as big
01:24:41as your old one, but
01:24:43it can make me
01:24:45the happiest man in the world
01:24:47if you marry me again.
01:24:49Yeah?
01:24:51Yes, Craig, I'll marry you.
01:24:53Oh, perfect.
01:24:59It always was.
01:25:03Mommy, Daddy, I knew
01:25:05you'd come back together.
01:25:07Oh, she did?
01:25:09Up we go.
01:25:11That wasn't such a crazy dream.
01:25:13I'd like you to meet your granddaughter,
01:25:15Natalie Halle Brody.
01:25:17My dream came true.
01:25:19Hi, Grandpa.
01:25:21Halle, this is crazy,
01:25:23but if we run, we can make it
01:25:25to the town clerk before it closes.
01:25:27I do not want to be divorced from you
01:25:29one second longer.
01:25:31Yeah? Okay, what do we think?
01:25:33Who's up for a wedding?
01:25:35Yeah?
01:25:37Yeah?
01:25:39Yeah?
01:25:43Hi.
01:25:45We would like to get remarried.
01:25:47I can't accept
01:25:49your remarriage.
01:25:51That's ridiculous.
01:25:53What? Why?
01:25:55I can't accept your remarriage.
01:25:57That's ridiculous.
01:25:59Why?
01:26:01Because you were never really divorced in the first place.
01:26:03Look right here.
01:26:05You signed your name Halle Bildner,
01:26:07but your name is
01:26:09and always has been Halle Brody.
01:26:11Will you look at that?
01:26:13Wait, so
01:26:15that means the custody
01:26:17papers?
01:26:19Well, that's
01:26:21void.
01:26:23So you're still
01:26:25Natalie's parent.
01:26:27Mommy!
01:26:31Daddy,
01:26:35I forgive you.
01:26:53You've got seven years to make up for it.
01:26:57Okay.
01:27:07I just want to thank
01:27:09you all for your faith in me.
01:27:11And as your new mayor,
01:27:13I promise to work tirelessly
01:27:15to bring this town back to what it once was.
01:27:17Starting with
01:27:19the community center
01:27:21that Craig and Halle
01:27:23so generously built.
01:27:27We love you, Mayor Horta.
01:27:41Looks like they found a story
01:27:43to replace me with after all.
01:27:51Is there really going to be a rape here?
01:27:53Yes.
01:27:55We're going to be one big happy family.
