00:00:00What the heck happened last night?
00:00:23Oh god, did I really sleep with a cowboy?
00:00:30You're just going to leave without saying goodbye?
00:00:55Oh, I forgot to pay you.
00:00:57Of course.
00:00:59Two grand should cover it.
00:01:10Goodbye, and I will see you...
00:01:15...never.
00:01:18Goodbye.
00:01:39Ah, excuse me.
00:01:40Who am I to?
00:01:41You speak English?
00:01:44Ah, yes, I take all the money.
00:01:47Go take a picture.
00:01:50Go take a picture.
00:01:54Go take a picture!
00:02:06American?
00:02:07Yes, you speak English.
00:02:14Yeah, and let me guess, your wallet and your phone were stolen.
00:02:17How'd you know that?
00:02:19I mean, it happens. I was in your shoes not too long ago.
00:02:22But this should be enough to get you a taxi to wherever you want to go.
00:02:27Good luck.
00:02:29Wait, I didn't get your name.
00:02:38Oh, Sophie Swift, smile for the camera!
00:02:46Oh, if your fiancé finds out about your little one-night stand, think he'll still marry you?
00:02:50You still think I'd marry that lying, cheating, tiny dick man whore?
00:02:53You know what, since you like to sleep with him, why don't you marry him?
00:02:56Well, I'm going to show Derek and Daddy these photos.
00:02:59Hey, psycho, what are you doing?
00:03:02Oops, looks like you'll need a new phone.
00:03:06Here, go buy one.
00:03:09Now get out before I call security.
00:03:16Oh, my gosh.
00:03:18Oh, my gosh.
00:03:20Oh, my gosh.
00:03:22Oh, my gosh.
00:03:24Oh, my gosh.
00:03:27Oh, my gosh.
00:03:39Hey.
00:03:43So, you work at the hotels, huh?
00:03:45Actually, this is just one of the many hotels.
00:03:47Oh, um, hi. My car is here.
00:03:50Keep this.
00:03:52You did really good last night.
00:03:57One of the many hotels that I own.
00:04:05This woman is always giving me money.
00:04:08Wait, does she really think I'm a cowboy?
00:04:19Hey, boss, still on for golf with the senator?
00:04:22I've rescheduled.
00:04:24I'm going to the Maple Plaza site.
00:04:26I need to check on a few things.
00:04:42Look into Sophie Swift for me.
00:04:44I need to know everything about her.
00:04:46Got it, boss.
00:04:55Well, if she's going to sleep with some random male escort,
00:05:00I don't want to marry her anymore.
00:05:03But, Derek, if you don't marry Sophie,
00:05:07she can't inherit her late mother's company.
00:05:09We talked about this.
00:05:11You heard what Stella said.
00:05:13She saw Sophie with another man.
00:05:15It's not my fault.
00:05:16Daddy, don't be mad.
00:05:18You know how irresponsible Sophie is.
00:05:21Sophie, where the hell are you?
00:05:25Come home now.
00:05:41Yeah, boss, what you need?
00:05:42So the first round of the state inspection is next week.
00:05:44So we got to make sure everything's good to go.
00:05:46So the first round of the state inspection is next week.
00:05:48So we got to make sure everything's good to go.
00:05:50It's all under control, boss. We got it.
00:05:52See, look.
00:05:53The trash over by the trash can needs to go in the trash can.
00:05:55It can't be laying around on the ground, right?
00:05:57Mama's sleep, boss.
00:05:58I'll take care of it right away.
00:06:00Let's go.
00:06:03Speak in Spanish.
00:06:11Where the hell are you?
00:06:13You need to come home right now.
00:06:15What do you want, dad?
00:06:16I'm meeting with the construction site manager
00:06:17to go over some changes to the blueprint.
00:06:19Your sister told me everything.
00:06:21Have you no shame?
00:06:23Derek wants to break off the engagement.
00:06:26You need to come home and beg him to take you back
00:06:29if you want to save the company.
00:06:31I don't want to marry him either.
00:06:33He's there with you, isn't he?
00:06:35Put me on speaker.
00:06:38Hey, Derek, fuck you.
00:06:40You turn 25 in three days.
00:06:43How do you expect to inherit your mother's company
00:06:46if you don't get married?
00:06:47It's clearly stated in the will.
00:06:49You know what?
00:06:50I will marry anybody else but him.
00:06:52Goodbye.
00:06:58It's you.
00:07:01It's you.
00:07:06So you work the hotels at night
00:07:08and then here during the day.
00:07:10Well, geez, don't overwork yourself.
00:07:12I usually handle it just fine,
00:07:13but I'm especially tired after last night.
00:07:16How many rounds?
00:07:17Oh, hey, stop it.
00:07:18I'm right there.
00:07:20Anyway, what brings you here today, Ms. Swift?
00:07:23You can call me Sophie.
00:07:24And I'm supposed to meet the construction site manager,
00:07:27but I'm late and I think that they've already left.
00:07:30So I guess I can just call them later.
00:07:33Oh, snap.
00:07:34She's from the architecture firm that's partnered with us?
00:07:37Justin, you must be exhausted from working two jobs.
00:07:41Why don't you come work for me instead?
00:07:43Huh?
00:07:44I can double your current salary, whatever it is.
00:07:47Where are we going?
00:07:48What's the job?
00:07:49City Hall.
00:07:50And the job is to marry me.
00:07:52What?
00:08:01Okay, husband.
00:08:02So from now on, I pay you 10K a month
00:08:04for as long as we're married,
00:08:05and it was a pleasure doing business with you.
00:08:08You got it, boss.
00:08:10Or should I say wife?
00:08:11Boss wife.
00:08:13Let the show begin.
00:08:24Nice of you to finally come home.
00:08:27If I were you, I'd be begging Derek to take me back.
00:08:30Derek probably doesn't even want to see her anymore.
00:08:32That's why she came crawling back here.
00:08:34That's funny, coming from two homewreckers.
00:08:37How dare you?
00:08:39Do you hear your daughter?
00:08:42Rude rat.
00:08:43I am not here to listen to you guys talk down on me.
00:08:46I'm here to show you my marriage certificate.
00:08:48And in about three days time,
00:08:50I will be taking over my late mother's architecture firm.
00:08:53And you guys can't do anything about it.
00:08:56Who the fuck is Justin Lake?
00:09:01Justin Lake.
00:09:03Name sounds familiar.
00:09:05I know I've heard that name before.
00:09:08Wait, is that the guy from this morning?
00:09:10You married some random cowboy?
00:09:13What?
00:09:14That's appalling.
00:09:15Oh, not as appalling as you.
00:09:17At least he didn't sleep with a married man and get pregnant.
00:09:20Don't you dare talk to my mother that way.
00:09:23You need to file for divorce right now.
00:09:28Or never set foot in this house again.
00:09:31I'm okay with that.
00:09:32I was just here to show you my certificate.
00:09:34So.
00:09:37Holy fuck, Sophie.
00:09:39You got married to a stranger.
00:09:45Holy fuck, Sophie.
00:09:46You got married to a stranger.
00:09:48Yes, Kendall.
00:09:49You asked me three times already.
00:09:50And like I said, fake marriage
00:09:51so that I can inherit my mother's company.
00:09:53Yeah, still.
00:09:54Marriage is a huge deal.
00:09:56What am I supposed to do?
00:09:58Marry Derek?
00:10:02You're right.
00:10:03Anyone is better than Derek.
00:10:05Have no mercy for cheaters.
00:10:08So, how did you meet this Justin Lake?
00:10:13Two grand should cover it.
00:10:16I'd rather not say that.
00:10:18Okay.
00:10:19What does he do for a living?
00:10:21Okay, I'd rather not answer that one either.
00:10:23You gotta give me something.
00:10:25Look, point being, I am paying him ten grand a month
00:10:27to play my husband for a couple months.
00:10:29Wait.
00:10:30You're paying him ten grand?
00:10:32And then we get divorced.
00:10:33I'm your assistant.
00:10:34Why is his salary higher than mine?
00:10:36I want a raise.
00:10:37A raise.
00:10:38Okay.
00:10:43I need you to look into someone for me.
00:10:45His name?
00:10:47Justin Lake.
00:11:04Boss, what's happening?
00:11:06You've been like this all morning.
00:11:08I got married yesterday to the girl of my dreams.
00:11:10Wait, the Paris girl?
00:11:13Yep.
00:11:14Wait, let me guess.
00:11:16Sophie Swift?
00:11:17Yep.
00:11:18She's with Swift Architecture.
00:11:20We're actually working with them on the Maple Plaza project.
00:11:22Huh.
00:11:23She doesn't really know who I am yet.
00:11:25Huh?
00:11:26And she's giving me ten grand a month.
00:11:28Isn't she cute?
00:11:29Huh?
00:11:34Hey.
00:11:35Hey yourself.
00:11:36Alright, first day on the job.
00:11:38I texted you an address.
00:11:39Please meet me there.
00:11:41You got it.
00:11:44I gotta go.
00:11:45What do you mean you gotta go?
00:11:46Wait, where?
00:11:47She called.
00:11:48I gotta go.
00:11:49That's it.
00:11:50Wait, what about our meetings today?
00:11:51You gotta cancel it.
00:11:52Your wife's more important.
00:11:55Huh?
00:12:05Looking good, Joey.
00:12:07Welcome, Ms. Swift.
00:12:09I have your address right here if you want.
00:12:11Actually, my husband is coming in a minute and he needs some decent suits.
00:12:15And you're the only designer in L.A. that I trust.
00:12:17Oh, it's not that I don't want to help, Ms. Swift, but this is too last minute.
00:12:22I am swamped by orders.
00:12:29I'm so sorry I'm late.
00:12:31It's okay.
00:12:33Ms. Swift.
00:12:34Now, how come you didn't tell me that your husband was...
00:12:41...was such a handsome young man?
00:12:45Justin Lake.
00:12:47Yes, sir.
00:12:49Actually, I don't know if I've ever been in a store like this.
00:12:51Everything looks so expensive.
00:12:53You really don't have to do this for me.
00:12:55Well, you're my husband.
00:12:56Of course I do.
00:12:57But I'm happy to, so...
00:12:59Can you get his measurements, please?
00:13:01There's no need.
00:13:04I mean...
00:13:08I mean...
00:13:09Well, I've been doing this for too long.
00:13:12One look, and I have a rough number in mind.
00:13:16Okay, well, see, then this is why we're here.
00:13:18Joey's the expert of experts.
00:13:19Well, I have some suits you'll look stunning in, Mr. Lake.
00:13:23Please, follow me.
00:13:25I'll wait for you out here, okay?
00:13:26Okay.
00:13:28Now, these two racks are customized for you, Mr. Lake.
00:13:34Grab a few options, and I can pretend to put them on.
00:13:51Hmm.
00:13:55It's not bad.
00:13:58Okay, what kind of witchcraft is this?
00:14:00Every suit fits you like a glove.
00:14:03Trade secrets.
00:14:24Sorry.
00:14:25No, that's okay.
00:14:26We're actually going to take all three suits.
00:14:29Well, actually, we're having our annual sale on now.
00:14:36All the suits you chose are 30% off.
00:14:38Really?
00:14:39You never have sales.
00:14:41Let me wrap these up for you.
00:14:43Okay.
00:14:47Promise I'll make enough money to pay you back.
00:14:49You are my husband, okay?
00:14:50You don't have to pay me back.
00:14:53At least not with money.
00:15:07Wow.
00:15:09I've never had a woman take me shopping, buy me expensive clothes, and offer to take me home.
00:15:14Lucky you. You just won the jackpot.
00:15:17There's no argument there.
00:15:19Come on, dinner's on me.
00:15:22Is this Sophie?
00:15:25It really is you.
00:15:26What do you want?
00:15:27So, Stella was right about you.
00:15:29This must be your new boy toy, huh?
00:15:33And you must be the cheating, lying, tiny dick man whore, right?
00:15:38You bitch, is that what you told him?
00:15:43You bitch, is that what you told him?
00:15:46You call my wife a bitch again, and I won't hesitate to break your nose.
00:15:51You hear me, bitch?
00:15:53Whatever, damn, just chill the fuck out.
00:15:57Now shoot, unless you want to get hit.
00:16:00Whatever, arrogant prick.
00:16:06Come on, I'm extra hungry now.
00:16:08Okay.
00:16:15I'm sure you want to pay for dinner. This place is very expensive.
00:16:19Look, you pay me ten grand a month, I think I can comfortably afford this.
00:16:23Don't worry about it. Order whatever you'd like.
00:16:25Alright, don't blame me if I break your wallet.
00:16:32Mr. Lake, why didn't you tell me you were coming in tonight?
00:16:38Justin, is he talking to you?
00:16:45Dennis.
00:16:46My good buddy Dennis, long time no see. How are you?
00:16:50You know the GM here?
00:16:53Yeah, from when I used to work here for work.
00:16:59Right, hi Justin, from when you used to work here.
00:17:03My brother, we really miss you around here.
00:17:08What did you use to do here?
00:17:10I would, uh, I'd bring clients.
00:17:15Right, so you rep shared with the restaurant?
00:17:22That's clever. No wonder you brought me here. Why didn't you just tell me?
00:17:28So you ready to order?
00:17:32Teddy bear?
00:17:45Teddy bear?
00:17:47Sophie bear. Come here.
00:17:49Hi. When did you get back from Barcelona?
00:17:53This morning.
00:17:54Why didn't you call me to come get you from the airport?
00:17:56I wanted to be a surprise.
00:17:58Consider me surprised. How did you even know I was here?
00:18:02Dummy. Come on, you remember you share your location with my phone?
00:18:06After what happened last time? Come on, any more questions?
00:18:09Okay, okay. Oh, Justin, meet Teddy, my best friend.
00:18:14Justin. Ted.
00:18:20That's a firm handshake you got there.
00:18:24Am I interrupting anything? Actually, we were just...
00:18:27No, join us for dinner.
00:18:29Great.
00:18:32Great.
00:18:33Great.
00:18:42So how is business in Barcelona?
00:18:44Oh, fantastic. We broke record sales three years in a row. Revenue's up over half a billion now.
00:18:49Congratulations. Your father must be so proud.
00:18:54Wow. Half a billion. What line of work are you in, Todd?
00:18:59Ted. It's construction.
00:19:02We're one of the largest construction companies in Spain.
00:19:04Yeah, my mom was an architect. That's why we're family friends.
00:19:08Well, profit margin in construction is pretty low.
00:19:11So you're saying your revenue is 500 million.
00:19:14That means you took down, what, 300 million?
00:19:17Even after taxes, that's...
00:19:18Justin, stop being so rude.
00:19:20No, no. It's fine. It's fine. He's right. We have a long way to go.
00:19:24I'm certain we'll surpass late construction here in no time.
00:19:28What about you, Justin? What type of work are you in?
00:19:33Eh.
00:19:37Shit. Justin must feel so embarrassed.
00:19:40Oh, Justin works with me now. He is my assistant architect.
00:19:46That's nice.
00:19:53So I flew back from Barcelona to take care of some emergency family matters, but I'll be here for a while. It's time.
00:19:58Call me whenever. We need to hang out.
00:20:01Of course. I haven't seen you in, what, a year?
00:20:04A long time.
00:20:05We need to catch up?
00:20:06Yeah.
00:20:10Bye, Ted.
00:20:11Bye.
00:20:15Yeah, bye.
00:20:20That's your bestie, huh?
00:20:21Well, we practically grew up together. He's like my brother from another mother.
00:20:25By the way, I know it got a little awkward when Teddy started asking you about your line of business, so I have another proposal.
00:20:33Why don't you join my company?
00:20:35Oh, fuck.
00:20:38No shade to your previous profession.
00:20:41I just think anyone making money with their hard work should be treated with respect.
00:20:46Sophie, the thing is...
00:20:48Just come in for an interview.
00:20:50Please. I think a career change won't hurt you, and it'll help our story.
00:20:56And here is your bill, sir.
00:21:00Just give me a time and a place, boss, and I'll be there.
00:21:02Yay!
00:21:11No need to be nervous, okay? We're just going to chat a bit.
00:21:14Sounds good to me.
00:21:15So, do you have your resume on you?
00:21:17I sure do.
00:21:19I've done a little bit of this, a little bit of that. Nothing special.
00:21:22Don't worry. Sophie has already chosen you as her prince charming. I'm pretty sure you've done something.
00:21:34This is incredible.
00:21:36You went to L-I-S-A-A in Paris?
00:21:39That's correct.
00:21:40You were the chief designer of the reconstruction of Shangri-La, Paris.
00:21:43That's correct.
00:21:44You were the chief designer of the reconstruction of Shangri-La, Paris.
00:21:47You got that right, too.
00:21:48And you designed Philharmonie de Paris as well?
00:21:54You're hired.
00:22:03I just got hired at Swift Architecture. I start today.
00:22:06What?
00:22:07Are you trying to blow up my eardrums?
00:22:09But boss, what about late construction?
00:22:11I'm going to count on you to take care of the company while I'm gone.
00:22:13Okay?
00:22:14Goodbye.
00:22:15Boss.
00:22:17Boss!
00:22:20Take care of what company?
00:22:26Take care of what company?
00:22:29Take care of Tommy.
00:22:31My pet goldfish.
00:22:33Since I'll be working for you now and I'll be super busy, a pet goldfish requires a lot of work.
00:22:40Water changes and everything.
00:22:43Okay.
00:22:45Anyways, come on. I'll give you a ride.
00:22:47Where are we going?
00:22:48Well, I don't want to overwork you on your first day. Let me give you a ride home.
00:22:52My home?
00:22:56This is where you live.
00:22:59Thanks for the ride. I'll catch you later.
00:23:03You can head out now.
00:23:05No worries. Go ahead.
00:23:09You know, I forgot my key. I'll wait for my roomie to get here.
00:23:14You share this place with a roomie?
00:23:17Four. Four roomies.
00:23:19No, no, no. This won't do.
00:23:23Wait. Huh?
00:23:29What brings us here today?
00:23:30Well, we're looking at new houses, obviously.
00:23:32I have my eye on the single family. It's a little bit pricey, though. About $30 million.
00:23:37But the design of Lake Enterprise is stunning and the location could not be any better.
00:23:42Lake Enterprise?
00:23:43Hmm? Let's go buy you a house.
00:23:46Me?
00:23:47Transportation around here is super convenient.
00:23:50Subway is just around the corner.
00:23:52Excellent school district.
00:23:54And we have a new Maple Plaza opening next year.
00:23:58What's your take on the neighborhood?
00:24:01It's great.
00:24:02Too many pamphlets on the site.
00:24:04Yes. I'll be right back.
00:24:08Okay.
00:24:16If it isn't my loser sister and her loser husband.
00:24:22Hey, sis. House hunting so soon after getting married?
00:24:27That's none of your business.
00:24:28Well, Derek insists on buying me a house.
00:24:30That's right, babe. Whichever one you fancy, I'll buy it for you.
00:24:35Ms. Swift, here are the pamphlets you asked for.
00:24:37Oh, I'll take whichever lock she's looking at.
00:24:40Use this card.
00:24:45Sorry, it's mine now.
00:24:50I don't know. I just have a feeling today is not a good day for you two.
00:24:53What are you, a psychic?
00:24:55This guy is delusional.
00:24:57Hey, let me tell you how this is going to work out for you, compadre.
00:25:01Sorry, sir. Our card processing is down for maintenance.
00:25:06What the fuck? Do you take check?
00:25:11Sorry, our system is down. We won't be able to process any payments today.
00:25:15Forget it. Let's get out of here, then.
00:25:20I guess we'll just have to come back.
00:25:24Ms. Swift, our servers are back online.
00:25:26Already?
00:25:27And we have a promotion today.
00:25:32Fifty percent off?
00:25:33Fifty percent off.
00:25:38Deal.
00:25:42Deal.
00:25:46Oh my god.
00:25:47You're kind of adorable when you're happy, huh?
00:25:49Fifteen million? I could buy another one.
00:25:52But how does he have the authority for that kind of promo?
00:25:57You think he's some undercover billionaire?
00:26:00What if he's Mr. Lake, the CEO of Lake Enterprise?
00:26:06He does look quite handsome, by the way.
00:26:09Right?
00:26:10I'm not handsome?
00:26:21Daddy, Sophie took her boy toy to buy a house today.
00:26:24And she had a huge argument with Derek.
00:26:28She knows exactly how to rile me.
00:26:32I bet Derek is pissed.
00:26:34Well, what if I marry Derek?
00:26:40What if I marry Derek and bring the families together?
00:26:44Absolutely not.
00:26:46Their engagement is already a scandal.
00:26:48If you marry Derek, our entire family will be a joke.
00:26:53If only Sophie were as obedient as you.
00:27:01I have no idea what any of this shit means.
00:27:05Derek.
00:27:10Sophie's taking over the company today.
00:27:12I have nothing.
00:27:14Don't worry.
00:27:16I won't let her win.
00:27:18I won't let her win.
00:27:20I won't let her win.
00:27:44So, today marks the first day of me taking over my mother's company.
00:27:48And I am very eager to work with you all.
00:27:50Your scandal with Derek has tarnished the company's image.
00:27:53Indeed.
00:27:54And the stock took another hit today.
00:27:56How are you going to address that?
00:27:58This discussion has nothing to do with my personal life.
00:28:00But Derek has conspired with other firms against us.
00:28:04This is all your fault.
00:28:06I will take care of this.
00:28:08And I can assure you that if I don't turn the company around in six months,
00:28:12I will step down voluntarily.
00:28:15Now, let's get back to work.
00:28:24Patrick.
00:28:26Sophie needs help.
00:28:28What do you need me to do, boss?
00:28:32I need you to sign a three-year exclusive deal with Swift Enterprise on my behalf.
00:28:39Mr. and Mrs. Swift.
00:28:41I hear your company's been having some trouble.
00:28:46Our stock's tanking.
00:28:48It's driving me crazy.
00:28:49It's all Sophie's fault.
00:28:51Sophie and I had a tiny misunderstanding.
00:28:54So she rushed into marriage to get back at me.
00:28:57But if she begs me to take her back and apologizes to me,
00:29:02I won't mind marrying her.
00:29:06You've always been a perfect match for Sophie.
00:29:09Once Sophie and I are married,
00:29:12our companies can unite,
00:29:14and we will be unstoppable.
00:29:18Make Sophie divorce him and dump that freeloader for good.
00:29:22I'll make sure Sophie marries you, Derek.
00:29:25All right.
00:29:26I won't take up any more of your time.
00:29:34Sophie, come home right away.
00:29:36It's urgent.
00:29:39What?
00:29:45What is your emergency?
00:29:47Divorce that loser husband and marry Derek.
00:29:50Now.
00:29:52That's your emergency?
00:29:54Your husband is a loser.
00:29:57Our stocks are tanking.
00:29:59Marry Derek and fix this shit.
00:30:02First of all, don't call my husband a loser.
00:30:05Second of all, your daughter is screwing Derek.
00:30:07So if you think that I'm going to marry him,
00:30:09you're delusional.
00:30:11And lastly, I will fix this.
00:30:13Without the help of that fucking cheater or any of you leeches.
00:30:16If you don't divorce that loser,
00:30:19don't ever come back.
00:30:21You are no daughter of mine.
00:30:24Fine. I won't.
00:30:27You were a horrible husband and mother,
00:30:29so it really doesn't surprise me of how shitty of a dad you are.
00:30:34The three of you are family and I'm just your cash cow.
00:30:36That ends today.
00:30:48Do you want to have a drink with me?
00:30:52Whoa. Having a party, huh?
00:30:55Sorry, I was just settling in.
00:30:57I didn't know you were coming.
00:30:59Yeah, I should probably settle in myself.
00:31:01Wait, really?
00:31:03Yeah, I just cut ties with my family.
00:31:05So, cheers.
00:31:09Want to talk about it?
00:31:11What's there to talk about?
00:31:16Sophie.
00:31:19You don't have to smile all the time.
00:31:21It can be a shoulder to cry on too.
00:31:31Oh, slow down. Slow down.
00:31:33Mmm.
00:31:35Oh, you're lame.
00:31:37I think you've had enough.
00:31:48Sophie.
00:31:50Sophie.
00:31:52Fuck. Let's get you some rest. Come on.
00:32:04Justin. Oh, my God.
00:32:06Just in time. I made you coffee. What's up?
00:32:09Lake Enterprise just called me
00:32:11and they want to sign a long-term contract with us.
00:32:14This is everything that I needed.
00:32:16So, I'm actually going to go meet them at Lake Enterprise right now.
00:32:19Perfect. I'll wait for you at the office.
00:32:22No, no, no. You're coming with me.
00:32:33Okay, Justin. Come this way with me.
00:33:04Okay.
00:33:16What's the fanciest restaurant you can think of?
00:33:19Olive Garden.
00:33:26Then what are you doing here?
00:33:28That's none of your concern.
00:33:30Mr. Lake.
00:33:32Mr. Lake is not available at the moment,
00:33:34but you can have a seat and wait for him, sir.
00:33:36I know what you're up to.
00:33:38Forget it.
00:33:40Mr. Lake and I already struck up a deal.
00:33:43Oh, you know Mr. Lake?
00:33:48You know Mr. Lake?
00:33:50Of course.
00:33:52We're...
00:33:54Well...
00:33:56Why should I tell you?
00:33:58Oh, come on. You can say it.
00:34:00I don't want to.
00:34:03Uh, Mr. Brown, this way please.
00:34:22I can't wait to work with you.
00:34:24That makes two of us.
00:34:31Bathroom. Be right back.
00:34:44Still waiting?
00:34:46Um, Mr. Lake and I actually had a nice chat earlier.
00:34:50Really?
00:34:52Where is he now?
00:34:54Uh, he went to grab a bite.
00:34:56Hmm.
00:34:58And he didn't invite you?
00:35:00I'm not hungry.
00:35:11Well, best of luck to you.
00:35:19Cheers.
00:35:21I did not expect this project to go so smoothly.
00:35:27What do you want, Derek?
00:35:29I know you got that contract, but trust me.
00:35:32I won't let you win forever.
00:35:34Just you wait.
00:35:37You know what you sound like? A loser.
00:35:42Is this supposed to just hang up on me?
00:35:45What do you want?
00:35:48Forget Derek.
00:35:50Yeah, I don't want to talk about your ex.
00:35:53Yeah, I don't want to talk about your ex.
00:35:55Let's talk about us.
00:35:57What's there to talk about?
00:35:59No talking. We're doing.
00:36:12You're really talented.
00:36:14Why did you...
00:36:16Maybe I shouldn't ask too much about his past?
00:36:18Never mind.
00:36:20Okay, so you want this portion elevated right here?
00:36:22Yes.
00:36:24Sophie.
00:36:26You haven't been home lately. Where have you been?
00:36:28I thought you made it clear I'm no daughter of yours.
00:36:31You're such a brat.
00:36:33This the man you married?
00:36:36Yes.
00:36:38Save it.
00:36:40Sophie, I'm going to tell you one last time.
00:36:44Divorce him at once if you want to save the company.
00:36:48Let me tell you one last time.
00:36:50I am never ever marrying Derek.
00:36:52I would rather die than marry that asshole.
00:36:59Come on, Justin. Let's go.
00:37:03And we just signed the contract with Lake Enterprise.
00:37:06I can save the company without Derek.
00:37:21You won't meet the fire safety protocols on the Maple Plaza project.
00:37:25I made sure of that.
00:37:27You're screwed.
00:37:29You prick.
00:37:31Beg me and I might consider letting you off.
00:37:38I can help with that.
00:37:41How?
00:37:43Just wait and see.
00:37:51Ugh.
00:38:01Hey, Ted. I'm in trouble.
00:38:11Hey.
00:38:15Well, make yourself at home.
00:38:17What happened? Let me hear it.
00:38:19Well, basically, Derek screwed me.
00:38:21I couldn't meet the fire safety protocols.
00:38:24All right. Let me text my guy. I got you.
00:38:28I'm counting on you, Teddy Bear.
00:38:30I got you, Sophie Bear.
00:38:36Hello?
00:38:37Hi, Ms. Swift. It's Patrick Brown.
00:38:40We sorted out the fire safety issue.
00:38:42That's fantastic. Thank you.
00:38:46I'm sure our partnership will be a resounding success.
00:38:49Absolutely.
00:38:56Thank you, Teddy Bear. The issue has been sorted.
00:38:59Already? I just texted my guy like two seconds ago.
00:39:03I guess they work fast.
00:39:05God, thank you.
00:39:07I guess so.
00:39:11Was that too quick a fix?
00:39:13Is that a bad thing?
00:39:31Hey, look, I told you I could help you with the...
00:39:36What the hell are you doing here?
00:39:39What the hell are you doing here?
00:39:41I invited him. He's been a huge help.
00:39:44Could you maybe dress a little bit more appropriate when we have male guests over?
00:39:49Guests? He's my best friend.
00:39:53We've known each other longer than me and you.
00:39:55Anyway, I have good news.
00:39:57The whole fire safety issue? Resolved.
00:40:00I know.
00:40:02You know?
00:40:03Well, Ted fixed it just with the fire safety protocol.
00:40:06Well, Ted fixed it just with one call and it's all sorted.
00:40:10What? I'm the one who fixed it.
00:40:14Okay, hold on.
00:40:16Now I'm totally confused.
00:40:18Confused? You're doing this on purpose.
00:40:21Justin, why are you being so rude today?
00:40:26What is his problem?
00:40:32Patrick, why didn't you pick up on a call last night?
00:40:37Look into Ted Bass for me.
00:40:40There you are. I've been looking for you.
00:40:43What can I do for you, boss wife?
00:40:45Well, you've been acting kind of strange since last night. I just wanted to see if you were okay.
00:40:50Sophie, the thing is...
00:40:58Mrs. Green? What's wrong?
00:41:00Miss, your mother's emerald necklace. It's been stolen.
00:41:03I was cleaning your mother's old room today and I couldn't find it. I couldn't find it anywhere.
00:41:07What? I'll be right there.
00:41:17I thought you weren't coming back here.
00:41:19How did you get in?
00:41:22Did you let her in?
00:41:25This house was paid for by my mother. I can return whenever I want.
00:41:29Where is my mother's emerald necklace?
00:41:33You mean my emerald necklace?
00:41:35I told you not to touch her stuff.
00:41:37Just give it to her, Karen.
00:41:39I don't have it.
00:41:41She must have lost it herself and come back to frame me.
00:41:45Dad, you know the truth. Mom's stuff was in her room. I've never touched it once.
00:41:52But I'm going to ask one more time. Where is my mother's necklace?
00:41:56Fine. I sold it at an auction.
00:42:00If you want it, you can buy it back yourself.
00:42:05Fuck you!
00:42:12Sir, according to my investigation, Karen sold the emerald necklace last month.
00:42:17It was the heirloom of Miss Sophie's late mother.
00:42:20Seems like they haven't learned their lesson. Let's head to the auction.
00:42:23It's time I reveal my true identity.
00:42:27I need for you to help me secure that necklace.
00:42:31I'm going to rub it in her face.
00:42:33Anything for you, babe. You can count on me.
00:42:37Oh, Sophie! You're here to bid on that emerald necklace, right?
00:42:42Poor thing. She's just wasting her time.
00:42:46And look at you. Got all dressed up. Brought your little boy toy with you.
00:42:51But in the end, you'll leave with nothing but tears.
00:42:53You know, you two make the perfect couple. After all,
00:42:58Trash sticks with trash.
00:43:02Indeed. Trash does stick with trash.
00:43:13Ladies and gentlemen, the highlight of tonight's collection, the exquisite emerald necklace.
00:43:21This one-of-a-kind piece was designed by the renowned Madame Dussault.
00:43:25I'm going to start the bidding at 1 million.
00:43:271.1 million.
00:43:292 million.
00:43:312 million. Are there any other bids? 2 million going once?
00:43:35How do I borrow 3 million from Ted?
00:43:382.1 million.
00:43:413 million.
00:43:4710 million.
00:43:4810 million. Any more bids? 10 million going once?
00:43:52Are you out of your mind?
00:43:54I got this.
00:43:5510 million going twice?
00:43:5910.1 million.
00:44:0215 million.
00:44:0315 million. I have 15 million. 15 million going once.
00:44:0815 million going twice. 15 million sold.
00:44:14We don't have 15 million. We're going to face legal repercussions if we can't pay that.
00:44:19Why didn't you tell me this before?
00:44:24Hi. Can we please retract our bid?
00:44:29Hi. Can we please retract our bid?
00:44:32It's already paid.
00:44:33By who?
00:44:35Justin Lake.
00:44:37That Justin Lake?
00:44:39Yes, miss.
00:44:43It's yours now.
00:44:52Smile. Hold your head up high. Let's make a banging exit.
00:45:08All set.
00:45:09By the way, where did you get 15 million? You didn't sell yourself, did you?
00:45:14Should I be flattered?
00:45:15Justin, just tell me. Seriously.
00:45:18Why don't you let me show you?
00:45:27What is going on? Do I really need to be blindfolded for this?
00:45:31Moments away now. Come on.
00:45:33Okay. You're so dramatic.
00:45:39Okay. Take it off.
00:45:45What is this? Where are we?
00:45:47Come with me. I'll give you the tour.
00:45:50Okay.
00:45:54Welcome back, Mr. Lake.
00:45:58Señorita.
00:46:01Mr. Lake. So you live here?
00:46:04Here and a couple other places, depending on the season.
00:46:07But this place is extra special.
00:46:09The garden is gorgeous.
00:46:12Dad and I designed it together.
00:46:14And my man Al here has been with us for 30 years.
00:46:20Wait. I spent 15 million buying your home and then gave it to you.
00:46:25Oh, yeah.
00:46:27Are you the Justin Lake?
00:46:30Are you the Justin Lake?
00:46:32That's right.
00:46:34Why didn't you tell me?
00:46:36I did, but you didn't want to believe me.
00:46:38No. You could have told me formally.
00:46:40Well, allow me to formally introduce myself.
00:46:43God. Stop.
00:46:49When the heir to the Lake family reveals his true identity,
00:46:52it tends to stir up drama and chaos.
00:46:55I didn't want that.
00:46:57So I decided to keep my identity a secret.
00:46:59I hope you can forgive me.
00:47:01My head is just spinning a little bit, so...
00:47:04Let me fix that.
00:47:08You know what? I want the house back.
00:47:10I want the money back. I want everything back.
00:47:13Well, I'm your husband, so everything I have is yours.
00:47:16Well, that's more like it.
00:47:19What's that?
00:47:21Let me show you.
00:47:23What's that?
00:47:25Let me show you.
00:47:27Okay.
00:47:29Did you paint this?
00:47:31Yeah, I painted it back in college.
00:47:33And it was exhibited just once at my graduation ceremony.
00:47:36Wait. Why does this painting look so much like the one Stella submitted for the Monet Award?
00:47:44Oh, thank you for taking my phone.
00:47:46Oh, um, it's Stella. I need a minute, please.
00:47:49Okay.
00:47:53Hey, Stella. What's up?
00:47:55Meet me at the cafe on 3rd.
00:47:57Perfect timing. I was just about to call you anyways.
00:48:14What do you want?
00:48:16Why the rush? Have a drink first.
00:48:20What do you want?
00:48:21Why the rush? Have a drink first.
00:48:29Go on.
00:48:32You said you wanted to see me. You first.
00:48:34Yeah, I saw your submission for the Monet Prize.
00:48:37Did you really paint it?
00:48:39Of course I did. What are you suggesting?
00:48:41You're still lying.
00:48:43But I know the truth.
00:48:52Got you, bitch.
00:49:05Sophie?
00:49:07Sophie!
00:49:09Sophie, baby, wake up.
00:49:12Sophie.
00:49:14Hey, it's me. It's me. It's Ted.
00:49:16Can you hear me?
00:49:18Can you see me?
00:49:20Let's get you out of here. Come on.
00:49:22Can you walk?
00:49:26Are you okay?
00:49:28Can you see? Can you open your eyes?
00:49:30What happened?
00:49:32Okay. Hey.
00:49:34Let's go.
00:49:40I'm not sure if I trust you too much, but my Swift is in trouble.
00:49:44Check the headline news. It can't be contained.
00:49:47Sophie Swift was caught publicly intoxicated looking like a complete whore.
00:49:51She was seen with an incredibly attractive man.
00:49:54I sure hope her husband is on social media to see this.
00:50:04What are you doing?
00:50:06Are you out of your mind?
00:50:08She's sleeping. Let's talk outside.
00:50:17Don't you leave her alone. That's my wife.
00:50:19If you're even willing to entertain the rumor that she cheated on you,
00:50:23then you don't deserve her at all.
00:50:25Listen, I know you and Sophie were set up.
00:50:28That's why we're still here talking.
00:50:30What's your relationship with my wife?
00:50:32She's my best friend.
00:50:34I've known her a lot longer than you.
00:50:36Your best friend?
00:50:38Have you seen the news? Her reputation is completely damaged because of you.
00:50:41Look, I'll take care of it. All right?
00:50:44How?
00:50:46From my point of view, the best thing you can do is stay away from her.
00:51:00You're up.
00:51:02Why are you sleeping here?
00:51:04The doctor suggested you get some rest.
00:51:07I thought it was all a dream.
00:51:10You remember now.
00:51:13Tell me what happened.
00:51:15Where's Ted?
00:51:17He left.
00:51:19You were out cold all night. Did you expect him to stay over?
00:51:23I need to call him.
00:51:25I'll put her on speaker.
00:51:30Hey, Ted. It's Sophie.
00:51:32Sophie. How are you feeling?
00:51:34I've already dispelled the trending headline about us.
00:51:36Trending headline?
00:51:38Why are you talking to my wife?
00:51:40Stop calling and sounding so husky.
00:51:43Okay. First of all, I am the one that called him.
00:51:46What, are you a little jealous?
00:51:52First of all, I am the one that called him.
00:51:55What, are you a little jealous?
00:51:58No.
00:52:00Tell me what happened.
00:52:03Stella called me.
00:52:05Tell me what happened.
00:52:07Stella called me last night.
00:52:09And I just so happened to have something to ask her as well.
00:52:13So I decided to meet her.
00:52:15I just didn't think that she would spike my drink.
00:52:17I'm calling the police and I'm getting my PI on it too.
00:52:19Okay, stop, Justin. No.
00:52:21Why? You got hurt, Sophie.
00:52:24I know. But there's one more thing I need to find out from Stella.
00:52:28It's...
00:52:30It's about my mom's death.
00:52:32I never suspected that she died from suicide.
00:52:35And I think her death has something to do with Stella and her mom.
00:52:39Did the police determine your mother's death was suicide?
00:52:42Yeah. And unless more evidence is brought forward,
00:52:45the police, they're not going to reopen the investigation.
00:52:48But don't worry, I can handle this, okay?
00:52:50I will help you.
00:52:51Okay, but I need you to take care of yourself and get some rest.
00:52:54Alright?
00:53:03Thank you, everyone, for gathering here today to celebrate our friend,
00:53:07the Monet Award winner 2024, Stella Swift.
00:53:17Yeah, thank you.
00:53:19Thank you. Thank you. This is such an honor.
00:53:23I did want to take a moment to congratulate my sister, Sophie Swift.
00:53:29She also took part in this competition, but if I'm not mistaken,
00:53:32you got third place, right?
00:53:35And I'm the winner?
00:53:38Well, come on, Sophie. Today's my big day. Have a drink with me.
00:53:42Stop pretending, Stella.
00:53:47You can't hide what you did to my mom,
00:53:49but I can give you a chance to tell me the truth.
00:53:52Everyone knows your mom killed herself.
00:53:54How could it be related to me?
00:53:56If you really think it was me, show me the evidence, then.
00:54:00How dare you?
00:54:10Justin.
00:54:12Everything okay here, Miss Stella?
00:54:14Yes. I was just talking to my sister.
00:54:17I just wanted to apologize for what happened at the coffee shop.
00:54:20I received a business call and had to leave early that day.
00:54:24I had no idea that Sophie would do such a thing
00:54:27and such a scandalous act to make headline news.
00:54:35I trust my wife,
00:54:37and the clarification announcement has already gone out to all major media outlets.
00:54:42I'd like to remind you that if anybody
00:54:45wants to play dirty tricks behind our back,
00:54:48you will get what's coming for you.
00:54:51For the artwork and the painting that you were awarded for,
00:54:55by chance was the inspiration drawn from
00:54:58the University of Paris' graduation ceremony
00:55:01five years ago?
00:55:03Mr. Lake, I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:55:10Might I remind you who you're dealing with?
00:55:13The artwork that you were awarded for?
00:55:15It's mine.
00:55:18The artwork that you were awarded for?
00:55:21It's mine.
00:55:23You copied it.
00:55:25Also, I know it was you that set up my wife at the coffee shop.
00:55:28I will not stop until I get justice,
00:55:31especially if it's her mother.
00:55:33Do you understand?
00:55:42Let's go enjoy the reception, everyone!
00:55:48How about that artwork?
00:55:51Justin, what did you say to Stella?
00:55:54What? Is my wife jealous?
00:55:57Quit messing around, okay?
00:55:59I heard that you mentioned the graduation exhibition
00:56:01at the University of Paris five years ago.
00:56:03I thought it was just a good opportunity to remind her
00:56:06about a lesson she might have forgot after graduation.
00:56:09And what's that?
00:56:11Copycats don't have nine lives.
00:56:13Justin.
00:56:15What?
00:56:21Justin.
00:56:23What?
00:56:27I don't know, I just...
00:56:29I see you differently now.
00:56:31What happened?
00:56:35Well, you are more handsome.
00:56:41You're more sexy.
00:56:44And adorable.
00:56:48Adorable?
00:56:51About manly?
00:56:55About more masculine?
00:57:01It's all about you, Sophie.
00:57:03I just want to protect you.
00:57:05You shouldn't put yourself in danger from me anymore.
00:57:08I know that's why you met with her that day, right?
00:57:10How did you know that?
00:57:12Because you're my wife.
00:57:14And I'd like to know everything about you.
00:57:18It's my job to protect you.
00:57:21I just want to keep you safe, okay?
00:57:24Okay.
00:57:34Kendall?
00:57:35Sophie, wake up.
00:57:36Mr. Cooper and your father were conspiring in the office this morning,
00:57:39planning to remove you from your position.
00:57:41You need to come back soon.
00:57:45You need to get back soon.
00:57:47What?
00:57:48It's urgent.
00:57:50You need to come back to the company so we can discuss the next step, Sophie.
00:57:54You know what? Send me everything that you've collected on Mr. Cooper,
00:57:56and I'll be right there, okay?
00:57:58Morning.
00:58:01Oh, hi.
00:58:02Coffee.
00:58:03Two cream, one sugar, just like you like it.
00:58:08I love it.
00:58:10That's it?
00:58:16Is there something you want to tell me?
00:58:20Justin, I'm...
00:58:24Sophie, whatever it is, just say it.
00:58:26I'll deal with it.
00:58:28I know, but I have to get changed, so I'm going to talk to you later, okay?
00:58:40Patrick, keep an eye on Swift Enterprise for me.
00:58:45Let me know if anything happens.
00:58:50Sophie, two things.
00:58:52Good news or bad news first?
00:58:54Give me the good news first.
00:58:55So, I investigated Mr. Cooper, as you requested,
00:58:58and out of his female subordinates, two were promoted,
00:59:01and eight resigned voluntarily.
00:59:04So, I did some digging.
00:59:06And I found out, through gossip,
00:59:09that he was engaged in sexual misconduct with female subordinates.
00:59:14Well done. He is such a dickwad tool.
00:59:17Have you found any evidence?
00:59:18That was the bad news I was going to tell you.
00:59:20You know what? Contact those female subordinates and urge them to report to the police,
00:59:23and provide them with any legal counsel, and cover all the fees.
00:59:27Already did it.
00:59:30Kendall, you are awesome.
00:59:32Okay, let's go.
00:59:34Wait, Sophie, one more thing.
00:59:36That bitch Stella and her mother are here.
00:59:38Things are progressing a little bit faster than we expected.
00:59:41They're waiting in the conference room for us right now.
00:59:43So, just in case, I prepared the documents you may need.
00:59:51It's just funny. They can't wait to kick me out.
00:59:55Okay, time for a counterattack.
01:00:05Yo.
01:00:11For the past two years, Swift Enterprises' financial statements have been a mess.
01:00:16And our market share has rapidly declined.
01:00:18Can someone explain the reason?
01:00:20What's the meaning of this?
01:00:21Are you trying to blame and oust your father and sister from this company?
01:00:26Mr. Cooper, you are the Vice President,
01:00:28but I didn't think that you lacked even the most basic professional manners.
01:00:32You always mix business with personal matters.
01:00:35But what I just mentioned is a business matter.
01:00:38You little bitch.
01:00:40Now that you've become the CEO, you dare to be so arrogant towards Mr. Cooper?
01:00:45He's a veteran of the company.
01:00:47I was just as assertive during my first board meeting, so what's the problem now?
01:00:51Pardon me.
01:00:52Who are you?
01:00:53Do you own shares in the company?
01:00:55Because if you don't, you don't belong here.
01:00:58So leave. Now.
01:01:01You! How dare you!
01:01:04Mom, are you okay?
01:01:06Security.
01:01:09Don't touch me!
01:01:16Don't touch me!
01:01:19I can walk myself.
01:01:24Sophie, how can you treat my mom like this?
01:01:27This is a board meeting, not a parent-teacher conference.
01:01:30You did properly graduate high school, didn't you?
01:01:36Very well.
01:01:37Let's see how long you last here.
01:01:39Oh, oops.
01:01:40Wait.
01:01:41You must have forgotten.
01:01:43The board decides who's CEO.
01:01:47Have a try then.
01:01:48Have a try then.
01:01:54I formally propose the removal of Sophie as CEO of Swift Enterprises.
01:01:58Agreed.
01:01:59I'm sorry.
01:02:17I'm Sheriff Ballard Ryder. I'm looking for Robert Cooper.
01:02:20Sheriff, that's Robert Cooper.
01:02:23Robert Cooper, you're under arrest on several sexual assault charges.
01:02:27Stand up for me, buddy.
01:02:28Come on. Stand up.
01:02:30There you go.
01:02:31You can use his arms.
01:02:33It's a mistake, man.
01:02:35It's a mistake.
01:02:37It's a mistake.
01:02:42Mr. Landon, Mr. Hayes, what did you say just now?
01:02:48Right.
01:02:49We can go on to the next topic then.
01:02:51I've also found evidence of embezzlement within the company.
01:02:54And if she can admit to it voluntarily,
01:02:56I will consider it as her surrendering to the authorities.
01:03:03Stella, did you hear me?
01:03:04Well, why are you asking me?
01:03:06I've got nothing to do with this.
01:03:08Don't pin this on me.
01:03:10Kendall, get her out of here.
01:03:11Okay.
01:03:12Enough.
01:03:14I'm sorry.
01:03:15I'm sorry.
01:03:16Get her out of here.
01:03:17Okay.
01:03:18Enough.
01:03:19Your sister's still young.
01:03:21You're ruining her life.
01:03:22You're being malicious.
01:03:25All of you, out.
01:03:35I still have nothing to say.
01:03:37Drugging.
01:03:39Embezzlement.
01:03:40Either a charge could land you in prison.
01:03:43This is about your mom, isn't it?
01:03:45I did not kill her.
01:03:46It was not me.
01:03:47Then who did it?
01:03:50It was your mom, wasn't it?
01:03:51She had something to do with this.
01:03:54I'm gonna count to three, and if you don't speak,
01:03:56I'm gonna take your case to the authorities.
01:03:58Just give me some time.
01:04:02I will get you the evidence.
01:04:04Good.
01:04:06I'll be waiting.
01:04:15Okay.
01:04:21I'll find justice for you, Mom.
01:04:36It's okay.
01:04:37You can cry.
01:04:39My mom, Justin.
01:04:41I know.
01:04:43I know.
01:04:44You had a big day.
01:04:46You moving up?
01:04:47Yeah.
01:04:48It was a good day.
01:04:49I finally did it.
01:04:51And now I can make my mom proud.
01:04:55You did.
01:05:06Yeah, I didn't hear anything, I swear.
01:05:10Totally normal.
01:05:12Also, we should probably eat something.
01:05:14If you want.
01:05:16I know a really good French restaurant, actually.
01:05:25That was fast.
01:05:27Alright, let's go.
01:05:28What are we waiting for?
01:05:34Why is no one else here?
01:05:36Did you book the entire venue?
01:05:39Yeah, I guess I did.
01:05:42Okay.
01:05:51I'll be right back.
01:05:52Okay.
01:06:04What?
01:06:11Justin, what is going on here?
01:06:14Happy birthday, Sophie.
01:06:18I don't celebrate my birthday, though.
01:06:20I know.
01:06:24It's because your birthday coincides with your mother's death, right?
01:06:28Yes.
01:06:29These flowers are for her.
01:06:33These flowers are for her.
01:06:36It happened 20 years ago, right?
01:06:38I want her to know that you're not alone.
01:06:41I will always be by your side.
01:06:44I think she'd be happy in heaven knowing that.
01:06:48Thank you, Justin.
01:06:52Make a wish.
01:07:08Hey.
01:07:24Hey, Sophie.
01:07:25It's Ted.
01:07:27Hey, Ted.
01:07:30I am feeling better.
01:07:32Yes, I'm actually not home right now.
01:07:34I'm with Justin.
01:07:36Okay.
01:07:38Okay.
01:07:39Bye.
01:07:44Why so happy?
01:07:47Nothing.
01:07:48Just enjoying the evening.
01:07:56Happy birthday, Sophie.
01:07:58You made your choice.
01:08:09I love you.
01:08:23Justin.
01:08:24Wake up.
01:08:25Okay, wake up.
01:08:26What?
01:08:27What happened?
01:08:28I have to tell you something important.
01:08:30How important is it?
01:08:32The mornings are usually a really good time for us to share some intimacy.
01:08:35No.
01:08:38Aunt Susan is going to be here.
01:08:42Aunt Susan?
01:08:43Yeah, she's my mom's sister.
01:08:44She's basically the only real family that I have.
01:08:47She sounds lovely.
01:08:48And?
01:08:49Well, she's visiting.
01:08:51But she doesn't know that I'm married.
01:08:54Tell her when she arrives.
01:08:56That's the thing.
01:08:58Could you not reveal your true identity as a CEO of an enterprise?
01:09:02Why?
01:09:04My Aunt Susan is angry at my father for how he treated my mother.
01:09:07And so she doesn't think that marrying Rich will work well.
01:09:10Plus, she has heart issues and I don't want to stress her out.
01:09:14Gotcha.
01:09:15I'll just be your stay-at-home husband.
01:09:17Alright.
01:09:22You are going to love Aunt Susan.
01:09:24She's amazing.
01:09:25So excited for you to meet her.
01:09:28Okay, she's here.
01:09:29We can do this.
01:09:30Do you remember what I told you?
01:09:32Smile.
01:09:33Yeah.
01:09:35You got it, boss wife.
01:09:37You got it.
01:09:40Hi.
01:09:41Hi, Susan.
01:09:42I missed you.
01:09:44Baby girl, I missed you so much, too.
01:09:47I just got done touring Europe and came right over after getting off the plane.
01:09:51Oh, my gosh.
01:09:53Wait.
01:09:54Who's this?
01:09:56Hi, Aunt Susan.
01:09:57I'm Justin.
01:09:59Yes, I forgot introductions.
01:10:00This is Justin, my husband.
01:10:05What?
01:10:08Husband?
01:10:10Sophie, you got married?
01:10:12Since when?
01:10:13This is a big deal.
01:10:14Why didn't you tell me?
01:10:16I was busy with the company business and I wanted to surprise you.
01:10:20This is a big surprise.
01:10:29You have a good eye.
01:10:30He's handsome.
01:10:32And he looks like a nice guy.
01:10:34Very, very nice guy.
01:10:35Come on.
01:10:36Take a seat.
01:10:40So, Justin.
01:10:42May I know what you do for a living?
01:10:48I...
01:10:54So, Justin.
01:10:56May I know what you do for a living?
01:11:00I...
01:11:03I'm sorry.
01:11:04I'm sorry.
01:11:05I just want to make sure you have enough time to spend with Sophie.
01:11:10She grew up alone for most of her childhood.
01:11:13Usually, I'm not that busy.
01:11:15Actually, I'd like to spend more time with Sophie if possible.
01:11:18Good.
01:11:21Auntie, I actually have a business call, so I'm gonna go, but you guys chat.
01:11:28Justin, I'm glad to see that you support Sophie in her career.
01:11:32She's a workaholic.
01:11:34And often forgets to take good care of herself.
01:11:36She's very hardworking and actually a really brilliant businesswoman.
01:11:40Are you accustomed to doing all of the laundry and cooking?
01:11:45I...
01:11:46Could you not reveal your true identity as a CEO of, like, Enterprise?
01:11:50Uh, yeah.
01:11:52Yeah.
01:11:53Well, it's almost dinner time.
01:11:54Do you normally make dinner for Sophie?
01:11:58Yeah.
01:12:00I'm great at making food.
01:12:01Great. It's my lucky day. I can't wait to try.
01:12:04How about Sophie's favorite?
01:12:06Pasta Alfredo.
01:12:08Great.
01:12:09Yeah.
01:12:10Of course.
01:12:21Oh my God, Justin.
01:12:22What are you cooking in here?
01:12:23It smells so good.
01:12:25He's making pasta Alfredo for you.
01:12:28Okay. You need to add salt.
01:12:30And you can't forget about that.
01:12:32Okay. Salt.
01:12:35You look a little unfamiliar with the kitchen.
01:12:38I'm very familiar with this kitchen.
01:12:40I'm in charge.
01:12:41I got this. Okay?
01:12:44So, uh, that is, um, that's sure.
01:12:46Something wrong?
01:12:48No, um, I just, I want to learn from Justin.
01:12:50He never shares any of his recipes with me.
01:12:53Justin.
01:12:54You shouldn't spoil Sophie so much.
01:12:57As capable as she is,
01:12:58she needs to learn some basic life skills.
01:13:00Got it.
01:13:01Auntie Susan, why don't you share some of your travel stories with me?
01:13:06I have plenty.
01:13:09Where should I start?
01:13:10Linda.
01:13:11Linda.
01:13:27Wait.
01:13:29What's this?
01:13:31Justin Lake.
01:13:32CEO of Lake Enterprises.
01:13:35Wow.
01:13:36Wait a minute.
01:13:38Um, I'm sorry.
01:13:40I'm the one that got this idea.
01:13:42No, no, no.
01:13:44I'm responsible.
01:13:45It's all my fault.
01:13:46Really.
01:14:02Sophie, I watched you grow up without your mom.
01:14:05And after she passed, you rarely smiled.
01:14:10But today, you're different.
01:14:13You seem so much happier than before.
01:14:16And I believe a big part of it is because of this man.
01:14:19Before, I didn't want you to marry a wealthy man
01:14:22because the way your father drove your mother out of the house was a tragedy.
01:14:27I know, Auntie, but Justin is nothing like my dad.
01:14:31Well, I can see that in the smile on your face.
01:14:33And the way he treats you.
01:14:35He genuinely likes you.
01:14:38I can see that he's going to bring you happiness.
01:14:41Thank you, Auntie.
01:14:42And Justin,
01:14:44Sophia can be a bit stubborn at times,
01:14:46but she's a big softy inside.
01:14:49You treat her well.
01:14:51Auntie, I will love Sophia with all my heart.
01:14:59Mom, that bitch Sophia is a bitch.
01:15:02Mom, that bitch Sophie is trying to reopen the case on her mother's death.
01:15:08That's been five years already.
01:15:09She'll never find out.
01:15:11But Justin Lake, the CEO of Lake Enterprises,
01:15:14the most powerful and richest man in town,
01:15:16is freaking helping her with the investigation.
01:15:19Hmm.
01:15:21We should strike first, then.
01:15:24Yes, we should.
01:15:32She's here.
01:15:35Turn off the cameras and follow the plan.
01:15:48Stop!
01:15:50Stop!
01:15:59Yeah?
01:16:00Boss, Miss Sophie's been abducted.
01:16:05Call my security detail and call the police.
01:16:08We need to rescue her.
01:16:10Tell me the address now.
01:16:17Bitch!
01:16:20Sophie Swift.
01:16:24You have nowhere to run.
01:16:26No one will protect you now.
01:16:35Sign it.
01:16:37You won't get away with this.
01:16:40No one's going to know once you're dead.
01:16:43Okay, I will sign it, but you have to answer me one question.
01:16:46Spit it out.
01:16:47Why did you kill my mom?
01:16:49Your mother's heart condition relapsed one day.
01:16:52I accidentally switched the medication.
01:16:57Who knew she was going to die?
01:17:00Oh, but you don't have to worry about missing her too much,
01:17:03because I'm going to send you to her very soon.
01:17:07Justin, no!
01:17:09Justin, no!
01:17:10Justin, no!
01:17:12Justin, no!
01:17:18Justin, no!
01:17:22What's happening?
01:17:24I didn't do anything!
01:17:27Justin, are you okay?
01:17:28What?
01:17:29You're bleeding.
01:17:31Just leave me alone!
01:17:35Justin, you're bleeding.
01:17:38Oh, my God.
01:17:41Justin?
01:17:42Justin?
01:17:43Patrick, please help me take him to the hospital, please.
01:17:45Justin?
01:17:47Please stay awake, Justin.
01:17:48Please.
01:17:49Oh, my God.
01:17:56Doctor said he'll be okay.
01:17:58You should go home and get some rest too.
01:18:00Yeah.
01:18:01Karen and Stella have been arrested.
01:18:03It's all over.
01:18:04We can relax now.
01:18:06No, I need to be here for him.
01:18:07I'm not going anywhere.
01:18:08You shouldn't be anywhere near him.
01:18:13I'm sorry, who are you?
01:18:17I'm Justin Lake's mother.
01:18:19Oh, Mrs. Lake.
01:18:20Hi, I'm Sophie Swift.
01:18:21It's nice to meet you.
01:18:25I'm sorry about Justin.
01:18:30I normally don't interfere in my son's personal affairs.
01:18:34Not until I met you.
01:18:35You're nothing but trouble.
01:18:37What have I done to Justin?
01:18:39There must be some misunderstanding.
01:18:40Shh.
01:18:42Do not disturb my son's rest.
01:18:45Let's talk somewhere more private, hmm?
01:18:52Now.
01:18:57Here.
01:19:00Ten million dollars.
01:19:02Leave my son.
01:19:04I'm sorry, Mrs. Lake, but I'm not some sort of gold digger.
01:19:08You may not be a gold digger,
01:19:10but trouble certainly follows you wherever you go.
01:19:13I will never accept you into the Lake family.
01:19:16Mrs. Lake, I don't need your money.
01:19:18Please, I love Justin.
01:19:20Love?
01:19:23Oh, you stupid, stupid girl.
01:19:26Fine.
01:19:28I'm sorry.
01:19:29Stupid girl.
01:19:32Fine.
01:19:33You don't want money?
01:19:36I have another offer.
01:19:38One you cannot refuse.
01:19:41I know your Aunt Susan has heart issues.
01:19:44Only the top specialist in Paris can cure her,
01:19:47but he isn't taking any new patients.
01:19:49He happens to be my dear friend.
01:19:51I can help you, if you leave my son.
01:19:54I'm sorry, Mrs. Lake, but I'm not some sort of gold digger.
01:19:57You're nothing but trouble.
01:19:59Leave my son.
01:20:01I'm sorry, Mrs. Lake, but I'm not some sort of gold digger.
01:20:04I'm sorry, Mrs. Lake, but I'm not some sort of gold digger.
01:20:07I'm sorry, Mrs. Lake, but I'm not some sort of gold digger.
01:20:10Leave my son.
01:20:12So who do you love more, Sophie?
01:20:14Susan or Justin?
01:20:18Kendall, what's wrong?
01:20:20Aunt Susan fainted.
01:20:22I just found out when I arrived at your house.
01:20:24What? I'll be right there.
01:20:36Don't move on Susan, okay?
01:20:38Okay, perfect.
01:20:40Just keep smiling, okay?
01:20:49Miss Swift, Justin still doesn't want to sign the divorce paper.
01:20:53It's been three years and he still keeps asking where you are.
01:20:56Are you sure you want to avoid him for the rest of your life?
01:20:58Relax, he's not going to find us.
01:21:01His mom already sent me up somewhere else.
01:21:03He's never going to track me.
01:21:05Besides, there's no chance between us.
01:21:07It's just a pipe dream.
01:21:08Take care of yourself and Auntie Susan.
01:21:11I miss you.
01:21:13I miss you too.
01:21:15Bye.
01:21:27Is this yours?
01:21:34Is this yours?
01:21:38Are you ignoring me or planning your escape again, wife?
01:21:43How did you...
01:21:51What about your mom?
01:21:53Well, it's taken three years but I finally convinced her.
01:21:55I told her that if I couldn't be with you, I wouldn't be with anybody else.
01:21:58I won't let anything come between us again.
01:22:00Do you remember?
01:22:02This is where we first met years ago.
01:22:04Years ago?
01:22:06I believe you offered an American man some money.
01:22:10He was just robbed and verbally assaulted by a French man.
01:22:15It's you.
01:22:17It's me, your dearest husband.
01:22:25That's my girl.
01:22:35I love you.
