00:00:00I love you, Carolyn Bells.
00:00:05I love you too, Ethan Black.
00:00:08What am I going to do?
00:00:11Escape!
00:00:12Easton has a full ride hockey scholarship and I will not get you.
00:00:16Trapping him in this podunk town to raise some bastard kid?
00:00:19Carolyn, are you serious?
00:00:22We're done.
00:00:24It's been eight years, Carolyn Bells.
00:00:26What is Easton doing here?
00:00:30I need you. I want you, Carolyn.
00:00:32All I know is that he can never find out that he has a daughter.
00:00:35Hayley, there is something that I haven't told you.
00:00:37You told me my daddy was gone.
00:00:38Why didn't you tell me you had a kid?
00:00:40Hayley's Mark's kid, isn't she?
00:00:41You don't know a goddamn thing about me.
00:00:44You're right. We're different people now.
00:00:47Then who's the father?
00:00:49Just tell me the truth!
00:00:51Daddy!
00:00:56Daddy!
00:01:01Daddy!
00:01:05Woo!
00:01:09Woo!
00:01:13Woo!
00:01:19Woo!
00:01:23Woo!
00:01:28You can't believe you're going away to college in a week.
00:01:31I'm not ready for the summer to end.
00:01:34It doesn't mean that we have to end.
00:01:37Come on.
00:01:38You just have to promise me that you're not going to go back to that asshole Mark.
00:01:41Never. No.
00:01:44I can't imagine being with anyone else.
00:01:46Me neither.
00:01:48I'm going to come back for you someday.
00:01:50I love you, Carolyn Bells.
00:01:52I love you, too, Mrs. Black.
00:01:59Oh, God.
00:02:01The period is a week late.
00:02:04What am I going to do?
00:02:08Carolyn.
00:02:09It's Easton.
00:02:10Mrs. Black, hi.
00:02:14You think you're pregnant with Easton's child?
00:02:18Mistake!
00:02:19Look, Easton has a Fulbright Hockey Scholarship, and I will not let you ruin his life,
00:02:24trapping him in this podunk town to raise some bastard kid.
00:02:28Please, just let me talk to Easton, okay?
00:02:30I've had enough trying to trap him.
00:02:31You are going to break up with him, and you are going to get rid of that baby, or else.
00:02:36You have no idea what I am capable of.
00:02:46If I tell Easton about the baby, he'll give up on his scholarship.
00:02:50This is his dream.
00:02:52I can't do this to him.
00:02:54His mom is right about one thing.
00:02:56He does have a bright future.
00:03:13I promised you, Carol, that I love you, and I'll come back for you.
00:03:32Carolyn.
00:03:34What the hell?
00:03:36I haven't even left yet, and you're already getting back with this asshole?
00:03:39Is this a fucking joke?
00:03:40No.
00:03:43I'm coming back for you.
00:03:44I'm going to make it to the NHL.
00:03:45You, you, you.
00:03:46It's always about you, isn't it?
00:03:47You and your career and your fame.
00:03:49All you care about is hockey.
00:03:51Easton, but Mark, he cares about me.
00:03:55I love you, Carolyn.
00:03:57I just need to go make a name for myself, and then I can give you everything that you want.
00:04:04You're never going to be the star that you think you are, Easton.
00:04:08We're done.
00:04:10All right, loser.
00:04:11Ciao.
00:04:21What the fuck?
00:04:22Mark, hey.
00:04:25I want to get back together.
00:04:27I thought you wanted me back.
00:04:29I changed my mind.
00:04:32I'm never getting back together with you, Mark.
00:04:34You crazy bipolar bitch.
00:04:37Don't ever fucking call me again.
00:04:45I'm sorry.
00:04:48How could you do this to me?
00:04:51This was the only way.
00:05:03Bye, Ben.
00:05:06Great.
00:05:08Speaking of hockey, did you see the news about your superstar ex?
00:05:14Everyone is saying Easton is making big moves.
00:05:28You're the front.
00:05:30Easton, you're the youngest hockey player to ever win MVP.
00:05:33But you shocked everyone by announcing your departure from the team that made you famous.
00:05:37Can you tell us where you're heading next?
00:05:40No comment.
00:05:44Good for him.
00:05:46He made it, just like he always said he would.
00:05:51What would you say to Easton if you saw him again?
00:05:54I have no idea.
00:05:55It's been eight years.
00:06:00All I know is that he can never find out that he has a daughter.
00:06:03Okay?
00:06:04Like, now that there's any chance of that happening, he's the East Coast's biggest hockey star,
00:06:08and I am the scrubbing toilet at a practice rink in L.A.
00:06:15It's been eight years, Caroline Mills.
00:06:25Wake the fuck up, Caroline.
00:06:27I need you to take out the trash.
00:06:29No, Lucinda, I'll get to it.
00:06:32Did you forget that my father is the L.A. Vipers coach?
00:06:37He runs this entire fucking place.
00:06:40And you, you're just a poor little janitor.
00:06:43I own you, Caroline.
00:06:46I wouldn't talk back to me if I were you.
00:06:49Trash.
00:06:50Now.
00:06:51Whatever you say, Lucinda.
00:06:53Quickly!
00:06:55The Vipers' captain will be here any second, and I need this place to be spotless.
00:06:59Do not embarrass me today.
00:07:02Captain?
00:07:13Welcome to the L.A. Vipers, superstar.
00:07:18Welcome to the L.A. Vipers, superstar.
00:07:21It all starts today, huh?
00:07:23Let's get it.
00:07:24Are we going to this new practice rink or what?
00:07:26Yeah, let's check it out.
00:07:44Hi, Ethan.
00:07:46We are so happy to have you here.
00:07:49Captain Black, we're lucky to have a star like you on this team.
00:07:53I'm excited to be here, coach.
00:07:54This is Ziggy.
00:07:55He's my right wing.
00:07:56I can't play without him.
00:07:58Looking forward to being here, coach.
00:07:59Can't wait to win with you.
00:08:00They said they had some stuff for me to sign in the office.
00:08:02Yes, we do.
00:08:08So what would you give each of the two of the facilities, please?
00:08:10Oh, it would be my pleasure.
00:08:13So right over here we have our rink.
00:08:27And here we have everything, everything that you enjoy in our break room.
00:08:38Easton.
00:08:41Easton.
00:08:44Oh, no.
00:08:45Did he join the L.A. Vipers?
00:08:47What is Easton doing here?
00:08:48Hi, my name is Easton Black.
00:08:50But it seems like you already know my name.
00:08:53Carol.
00:08:55Fine, no.
00:08:56Don't touch him.
00:08:57You're covered in trash and you smell like death.
00:09:00What a fucking joke.
00:09:02I am so sorry that this happened, Easton.
00:09:05I promise we have other employees that are more competent.
00:09:09It was an accident.
00:09:10I was just taking out the trash.
00:09:11Stop talking.
00:09:13You're fired.
00:09:16You're fired.
00:09:19Clean this up first.
00:09:23Is there anything else I can do for you today, Captain Black?
00:09:27Yeah, I'm actually looking for a personal assistant.
00:09:31Oh.
00:09:33I would love to be acquainted with the team, keep my calendar, run errands, that sort of thing.
00:09:38I would love to assist you, Easton.
00:09:41My dad is the coach.
00:09:43So I know what it takes to keep a captain happy.
00:09:48I actually think Caroline would be perfect for the job.
00:09:50Caroline?
00:09:51What the hell is he doing?
00:09:53Yeah, it seems like you have your hands full here, Lucinda.
00:09:56Besides, Caroline just got fired.
00:10:00You know, I think about you all the time in the world right now.
00:10:03So what do you say, Caroline?
00:10:08Caroline?
00:10:13Will you be my personal assistant?
00:10:19Will you be my personal assistant?
00:10:23No.
00:10:26I can't. I'm sorry.
00:10:30Lucinda, I have something urgent I need to attend to.
00:10:33We'll pick this up later, okay?
00:10:36Come on, Zig, let's go.
00:10:38Hey, dude, you promised me that if we came here and won the Vipers a championship, we'd be kings of the NHL.
00:10:43Don't tell me that you only came here just for her.
00:10:45It's for the love of the game, Zig.
00:10:47That's why we're here.
00:10:49Come on, let's go.
00:10:53Mommy!
00:10:54Oh, my sweet girl!
00:10:56Is everything okay?
00:10:58Oh, what has been?
00:10:59She's been at Easton Black.
00:11:01Daddy!
00:11:07Daddy!
00:11:10Did you tell him?
00:11:11No.
00:11:12Oh, God, I didn't realize how much Hayley looks like her daddy.
00:11:16Hi, I'm Easton Black.
00:11:18I'm the new captain of the Vipers hockey team.
00:11:22Oh, my gosh, I love ice skating.
00:11:24We have that in common.
00:11:26I'm sorry about the whole daddy thing.
00:11:28She must learn that from watching too much TV, you know?
00:11:32Carol, you have a daughter?
00:11:34No, Easton, we have a daughter.
00:11:37Yeah.
00:11:39Easton, um, Hayley's my daughter.
00:11:48She left me for Mark and then she had a kid with him?
00:11:51How did I never hear about this?
00:11:56Why did you just call Easton daddy?
00:11:58I know you told me that my daddy's not around anymore,
00:12:01but whenever I dream about him, he looks just like that.
00:12:07Let's go home, yeah?
00:12:12You're being very calm about this whole thing.
00:12:15If my secret baby daddy showed up out of the blue after eight years,
00:12:18I would be losing my fucking mind.
00:12:20Well, thank you for that.
00:12:22Junie, that was really helpful.
00:12:24So are you going to tell him?
00:12:25And say what?
00:12:27Exactly.
00:12:28Oh, hi, so good to see you again after I dumped you all those years ago.
00:12:31So sorry, I didn't tell you I had your kid.
00:12:33Yeah, and also, thank you so, so much for getting me fired from the job
00:12:37that I desperately need to feed my family.
00:12:39Yeah, it's going to go over super well.
00:12:43Ooh, I mean, what the hell kind of game is he playing?
00:12:47Did he just hire me as his personal assistant?
00:12:49I don't trust him.
00:12:50I think you should take the job.
00:12:52If you ask me, he's only fucking with you because he still cares about you.
00:12:54No, no, no, no, correction.
00:12:56He cared about me.
00:12:59He's not the same guy I knew eight years ago.
00:13:01Now he's just another Aryan hockey asshole.
00:13:05Okay, well, asshole or not, you need a job and you need money.
00:13:09And what better way to get to know the real Easton Black
00:13:11than by becoming his personal assistant?
00:13:14Who knows, he might surprise you.
00:13:16Look, no matter what, Easton deserves to know he has a daughter.
00:13:22You can't keep Hayley away from her father forever.
00:13:28Mom.
00:13:30Lucinda?
00:13:31Come get the rest of your shit from the rink first thing tomorrow
00:13:34before it's going in the trash.
00:14:04Easton's eyes should be on me.
00:14:23Not that slimy little skank.
00:14:26After today, she would never step foot in this rink again.
00:14:32I'm sure of it.
00:14:37Hi, Easton, your brand new Vipers jersey.
00:14:41The rest of the team will be here shortly, and they cannot wait to meet you.
00:14:45Cool.
00:14:47I'm going to charge real quick, and I'll be out to say hi, all right?
00:15:02Shit, sorry, Caroline.
00:15:04It was an accident.
00:15:05Yeah.
00:15:07Sure it was.
00:15:09Oh, you might want to run to the shower and take care of that before the stain sets in.
00:15:17God, she's such a bitch.
00:15:20This is going to be good.
00:15:32Sorry, boys, you can't go in there.
00:15:35Caroline ran inside after Easton.
00:15:38I didn't know she'd be such a skank.
00:15:41What?
00:15:48He's hotter than ever.
00:15:50And he knows it.
00:15:52Cocky asshole.
00:15:57Want to tell me what the hell you're doing in the men's locker room?
00:16:00Oh, did you hear her screaming?
00:16:05They're definitely getting it down in there.
00:16:08So what do you think, boys?
00:16:10Should we check it out?
00:16:13Here we come, Caroline.
00:16:15We know you're in there.
00:16:18Don't say a word.
00:16:23Can I help you?
00:16:25What are you and Caroline up to in there?
00:16:27What the hell are you doing in here, Lucinda?
00:16:29I told you I was going to talk to the team after my shower, unless you all want to join me here.
00:16:34You got room?
00:16:36Go on, Easton.
00:16:38I know I heard Caroline screaming in there.
00:16:40And why are we standing here?
00:16:44Caroline's stuck in the men's locker room and is trying to seduce Easton.
00:16:49Coach, I already asked Lucinda to leave once.
00:16:51If she's that obsessed with seeing me naked, then I don't think Caroline's the one that we need to worry about here.
00:16:55But...
00:16:56Me too.
00:16:58Now.
00:16:59Caroline's in there, like, hoeing around.
00:17:02She's not ready for a coach's daughter to act.
00:17:04Do you understand that?
00:17:05Okay.
00:17:06And you fire Caroline and pull this kind of shit?
00:17:08How about I fire you?
00:17:09How about that?
00:17:10How about I fire you?
00:17:11And how do you feel about that?
00:17:15If he wanted to accept the job, he could have just called.
00:17:17No need for all the theatrics.
00:17:20Caroline, wait.
00:17:24Why didn't you tell me you had a kid?
00:17:27Why didn't you tell me you had a kid?
00:17:30Why didn't you just tell me that you happened to be joining the team that practices where I work?
00:17:35Stalking me?
00:17:36Stalking you?
00:17:37Mm-hmm.
00:17:39It was a career move.
00:17:40Not like you know anything about that.
00:17:42Whoa, what the hell is that supposed to mean?
00:17:44There's no ring on your finger.
00:17:46And you're working some dead-end job letting people like Lucinda Kores walk all over you?
00:17:51I mean, obviously things didn't work out between you and Mark.
00:17:54That's a shame.
00:17:56But you're obviously lost without Katana.
00:18:00You have no idea who you're talking about.
00:18:03Oh, really?
00:18:04I don't need you, Easton.
00:18:07Is that why you're scared to take the job back?
00:18:10You're afraid you're going to fall in love with me again?
00:18:13I do need a job.
00:18:14I need money to take care of Haley.
00:18:16Who knows, he might surprise you.
00:18:19Bye.
00:18:20Oh, you think I'm so weak I'll back down from your petty little challenge?
00:18:25I'll take the job, and I'm going to be the best damn assistant you've ever had.
00:18:29You're going to be the one that's lost without me.
00:18:39Good.
00:18:40Just what I wanted.
00:18:43Happy birthday, dear mommy.
00:18:45Happy birthday to you.
00:18:47Yay!
00:18:48Thank you so much, sweet girl.
00:18:50I love it.
00:18:51And you know what?
00:18:52I was thinking maybe today we could go to the park or hang on.
00:18:58Hey, it's Saturday morning.
00:18:59Easton, what do you want?
00:19:01Hello to you too, Carol.
00:19:03Hey, I need you to go pick up some pants for me at the tailor.
00:19:07Can that wait?
00:19:08That's no way to speak to your boss.
00:19:11No, it can't.
00:19:13Hey, drop them off at my place here in a couple hours, all right?
00:19:16I'll text you the address.
00:19:18Easton, it's my birthday.
00:19:23Asshole.
00:19:28Mommy, can we go in there?
00:19:30I don't know, baby.
00:19:31We're already running late.
00:19:32Please?
00:19:33Just for one minute.
00:19:36You know what?
00:19:38Let's do it.
00:19:39We can take all the time we want.
00:19:40Yay!
00:19:41Thank you, mommy.
00:19:42Let's go.
00:19:44That one's pretty, isn't it?
00:19:46Hey, you touch it, you buy it.
00:19:48Excuse me?
00:19:49You heard me.
00:19:50Unless you're planning on purchasing, I suggest you leave.
00:19:53We wouldn't want your child's grubby little hands dirtying the merchandise.
00:19:56Come on, Haley, let's go.
00:19:58We don't need to give this rude woman another second of our time.
00:20:02Stop it, you thieves.
00:20:03No, we're not thieves.
00:20:05All right, Haley, turn around and show me your hands, okay?
00:20:09I knew it.
00:20:11Come with me.
00:20:12Look, no, I'm sorry.
00:20:13This is a big misunderstanding, okay?
00:20:15I'll pay for the necklace.
00:20:16As if you could afford it.
00:20:18It's $100,000.
00:20:19$100,000?
00:20:20Shit.
00:20:21What am I going to do now?
00:20:26Where the hell is she?
00:20:29If you can't pay, I'm going to have to press charges.
00:20:32I'm going to have to press charges.
00:20:35If you can't pay, I'm going to have to press charges.
00:20:38No, please don't press charges, okay?
00:20:40That's Eastern Black.
00:20:41Oh, my God.
00:20:42He's the hottest man alive.
00:20:44Hey, Carol.
00:20:46Seems like you found yourself something nice here.
00:20:50Oh, I told my personal assistant here to get herself something nice for her birthday.
00:20:54She has great taste, doesn't she?
00:20:56Hey, I'm the one that picked that out.
00:20:58But this mean lady smashed it out of my hand.
00:21:00No, no, no, I didn't.
00:21:01What's going on here?
00:21:02Eastern Black.
00:21:03Is there anything that I can help you with today?
00:21:05Yes.
00:21:06Your employee here is accusing me of stealing.
00:21:09No, no, no, I didn't.
00:21:10I didn't realize.
00:21:12I'm so sorry.
00:21:13Can you please forgive me?
00:21:15Can I get a selfie?
00:21:16No selfies.
00:21:18Get out.
00:21:19Get out.
00:21:20Oh, my God.
00:21:21Mr. Black, I'm so, so sorry about that.
00:21:23Please.
00:21:24What?
00:21:25Perhaps I could get a selfie?
00:21:28Just charge the necklace.
00:21:30Absolutely.
00:21:31Okay.
00:21:34What?
00:21:47Happy birthday, Carol.
00:21:51Eastern remembered my birthday.
00:21:53Maybe he's not such an arrogant asshole after all.
00:21:55You're lucky I was here to save your ass again.
00:21:57I told you.
00:21:58You're lost without me, Carol.
00:22:01Nope.
00:22:02Still an arrogant asshole.
00:22:04Bye, Hailey.
00:22:05Thanks, Mr. Easton.
00:22:20An arrogant asshole and a womanizer.
00:22:23Oh, my God.
00:22:24This is going to be my background.
00:22:25Uh-uh.
00:22:26I'm afraid of your pants, asshole.
00:22:29Do you know who he is?
00:22:32Juniper, what the hell?
00:22:35I thought you were coming over for a Real Housewives and Wine night.
00:22:37We always have Real Housewives and Wine nights.
00:22:40It's time for a get Caroline out of the house and onto a dance floor night.
00:22:44It's your fucking birthday, bitch.
00:22:46Juniper, I'm a mom.
00:22:48Okay?
00:22:49My clubbing phase is over.
00:22:50Caroline, you're 25, and you never even had a clubbing phase.
00:22:54I know.
00:22:55I know it must be hard working for Easton when you're hiding this big secret from him.
00:22:59I just think it might be fun to just have a fun night, clear your head,
00:23:04and stop thinking about all the heavy stuff.
00:23:10You're not going to let me say no, are you?
00:23:12No.
00:23:13I'll see you there.
00:23:30Imagine that, baby.
00:23:32Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:23:33Enjoy.
00:23:34Come on.
00:23:35Come on.
00:23:36Come on.
00:23:37Got it.
00:23:38You're an evil as fuck, dude.
00:23:40This is about Caroline?
00:23:46When I met you in college, you were a wreck because of Caroline.
00:23:49You're playing a dangerous game hiring her as your assistant.
00:23:51You're not trying to pick up where you left off, are you?
00:23:53No, I didn't.
00:23:54She knows she had a kid with Mark, that rich asshole that she left me for.
00:23:56She didn't even tell me.
00:23:58She's probably still paying her rent, too.
00:24:00You know, he's one of the youngest billionaires in L.A.
00:24:02Yeah.
00:24:03Yeah, I did know.
00:24:04You told me that once, twice, or 7,000 fucking times.
00:24:07Oh.
00:24:09Anyway, I'm a fucking superstar now.
00:24:11I got all the money and women I want.
00:24:13So, I'm totally over her.
00:24:15Yeah, man.
00:24:16Yeah, sure you are.
00:24:17All right.
00:24:18Oh, speaking of all the women you could want.
00:24:20Hey, ladies.
00:24:21Hey, Easton.
00:24:22Hey, ladies.
00:24:23How are you doing?
00:24:24Hi, Lucinda.
00:24:25You're the sexiest fuck.
00:24:27Tonight is the night I make him mine.
00:24:29Let's all drink.
00:24:31Okay.
00:24:32Cheers to the biggest, most badass hockey team on the West Coast.
00:24:37And our hot new captain.
00:24:39Go Vipers!
00:24:41Go Vipers!
00:24:46Oh, shit.
00:24:47Shit, Caroline's here.
00:24:52What the hell, Juniper?
00:24:54You literally dragged me out of my house because you're not even here yet.
00:24:56Sorry.
00:24:58Hi.
00:24:59Hello.
00:25:00Oh, shit.
00:25:01Caroline's here.
00:25:02Be cool.
00:25:03This place has gone so downhill.
00:25:04They didn't use to let straights off the street inside.
00:25:06I don't know.
00:25:07I think she looks pretty good all dressed up like that.
00:25:09Yeah, right?
00:25:10She looks like a fucking streetwalker.
00:25:14Look at those dances.
00:25:15I know.
00:25:16Dancing.
00:25:17You know, right?
00:25:18Listen, it was much prettier.
00:25:20Well, it's not a competition.
00:25:22But if it was, I would watch and learn, ladies.
00:25:27Easton, I'm up here.
00:25:38Keep your fucking hands off her.
00:25:41Keep your fucking hands off her.
00:25:46You're Easton Black.
00:25:47My bad, bro.
00:25:48I didn't know she was taken.
00:25:49She was making it pretty fucking obvious that she didn't want you to touch her.
00:25:53Try again and see what happens.
00:25:55Easton Black?
00:25:56You're Easton Black?
00:25:57You just fucking autographed me.
00:26:01What am I doing?
00:26:03Why am I letting this happen?
00:26:06Go ahead.
00:26:07Make some smartass comment about how you swooped in and saved the day once again.
00:26:11I know you want to.
00:26:12I'm full of smartass comments.
00:26:15But I'm not going to make any this time.
00:26:20You jealous of that guy?
00:26:24Who?
00:26:26All that weak-ass punk that I just knocked out without even breaking a sweat?
00:26:32Nah.
00:26:33Okay.
00:26:34Because if you were, it would be a little hypocritical.
00:26:38What do you mean?
00:26:39Well, you can have fangirls crawling over you 24-7, but I can't dance with one guy in a bar?
00:26:44It's unfair.
00:26:47Let's ruin her night.
00:26:48I'm in.
00:26:49Because we're such bitches.
00:26:50Let's do it.
00:26:52Unfair?
00:26:53You want to talk about unfair?
00:26:55Last time I saw you, you dumped him for some rich asshole without any explanation.
00:26:59And now you're raising his kid.
00:27:04What?
00:27:06Hayley's Mark's kid, isn't she?
00:27:10Happy birthday to you.
00:27:14Happy birthday, dear Caroline.
00:27:19Happy birthday to you.
00:27:23Oops.
00:27:24Sorry.
00:27:25Whatever.
00:27:26What the fuck, Lucinda?
00:27:28I'm going to go check on her.
00:27:30Sorry, Lucinda.
00:27:31Looks like you lost this round.
00:27:32Shut the fuck up, Gina.
00:27:34I can't believe you loved her.
00:27:36Get it together.
00:27:37You're not going to cry for it.
00:27:39You're not going to cry for your birthday.
00:27:45You're not going to cry for your birthday.
00:27:49Carrie, are you okay?
00:27:51Obviously not, Easton.
00:27:53Why can't you just answer the question?
00:27:55What did you do after I left?
00:27:58Break up with Easton, and you are going to get rid of that baby.
00:28:01You crazy bipolar bitch.
00:28:03Don't ever fucking call me again.
00:28:06Easton might as well believe Hayley's Mark's daughter.
00:28:08It is less painful than explaining the truth.
00:28:11Why do you want to know so bad?
00:28:12Huh?
00:28:13Are you still that pissed off that I dumped you eight years ago?
00:28:15You know, you act so self-righteous, Carol.
00:28:17But don't forget, you're the one who immediately hopped into bed with your ex after you dumped me.
00:28:21And if you're too afraid to admit that,
00:28:24then you're weaker than I thought.
00:28:28I don't know a goddamn thing about me, Easton.
00:28:34You're right.
00:28:36We're different people now.
00:28:38Here.
00:28:39Here.
00:28:41Before you go.
00:28:44What are you doing?
00:28:46What?
00:28:47Put this on.
00:28:49You don't need to go back out there looking like that, okay?
00:28:53Thanks.
00:28:57What is that?
00:29:04It's my old family heirloom.
00:29:06It's my lucky charm.
00:29:10I put it on before every game.
00:29:21You know, it's nothing I've never seen before, Carol.
00:29:24And it is nothing you're going to see again, Easton.
00:29:30What, is that a promise or is that a threat?
00:29:35Hello?
00:29:37Hayley, give me a minute.
00:29:40Ugh.
00:29:44You must know.
00:29:46You were right about me needing that assistant job, okay?
00:29:50It's just me taking care of Hayley right now.
00:29:52Things have been pretty tight.
00:29:54But if we are going to continue to work together, let's just agree to keep things professional between us, okay?
00:30:00Alright.
00:30:02If that's what you want, Carol.
00:30:03How long has Mike been out of the picture?
00:30:05Did she raise her daughter all alone?
00:30:10Oh.
00:30:13Ow, I haven't been this hungover in...
00:30:18ever.
00:30:19Sounds like the sign of a great birthday.
00:30:22Sorry, I couldn't make it before shit hit the fan.
00:30:26No, it's fine.
00:30:27It happens.
00:30:29I'm sorry.
00:30:30No, it's fine.
00:30:31It happens.
00:30:33Any word from Easton?
00:30:35No, he just texted.
00:30:45No, please, no, thank you.
00:30:48Men.
00:30:50All pigs.
00:30:51All of them.
00:30:53Ow!
00:30:54Oh.
00:30:59Hey, uh, I need your boys to do me a little favor.
00:31:04Hey, hey, hey, there's my favorite pug, Bunny.
00:31:06Where's my coffee?
00:31:08I don't work for you.
00:31:09Get your own coffee.
00:31:10Okay.
00:31:11Well, how about a kiss instead?
00:31:13Ooh, mean ass.
00:31:14Hey, Carolyn, so are you really working for Easton?
00:31:16Or are you just, like, working?
00:31:19Hey, asshole, if I kill you, are you really dead dead or just not breathing?
00:31:22Ooh.
00:31:23Ow!
00:31:24What the fuck's going on here?
00:31:26Oh, just trying to get the hockey stick out of your little assistant's ass.
00:31:29But, green asshole.
00:31:31Oh, yeah?
00:31:32Whoa, whoa, hey!
00:31:34Jesus, man, calm down.
00:31:35We're just having a little fun with her.
00:31:36Oh, yeah?
00:31:37Anyone else want to have a little fun?
00:31:42Anyone else want to have a little fun?
00:31:43Hey, hey, hey, calm him down!
00:31:45Carolyn's not your mate or your punching bag.
00:31:47She's my assistant.
00:31:48Which means she's just as part of the team as the rest of us.
00:31:50And you'll treat her with respect, or else you're going to end up like Rex over here.
00:31:54So, I suggest you all get your head out of your asses and get the fuck out.
00:31:59What's fucking changing?
00:32:00Come on, guys, get the fuck off me.
00:32:01I see your gloves.
00:32:02What's fucking changing?
00:32:03What are you doing?
00:32:04Get out of here.
00:32:06I take that back, you know.
00:32:07Yeah, what's that?
00:32:10Calling you weak.
00:32:12Carolyn, you just stood up to three of the meanest players in the NHL.
00:32:14That was sick.
00:32:16Told you, Easton.
00:32:18You don't know a goddamn thing about me.
00:32:20I know one thing about you.
00:32:23It's how stubborn you are.
00:32:24You haven't changed a bit over the last eight years.
00:32:27It's what I love most about you.
00:32:34Should probably get that bandaged, huh?
00:32:36One thing about having a kid.
00:32:39Every bag you carry turns into a whole ass emergency kit.
00:32:43It's so badass, you know, how you're raising Haley by yourself.
00:32:47Does your grandma help you at all, or...
00:32:49No.
00:32:50She, um...
00:32:52She passed before I graduated.
00:32:55I'm sorry, Carolyn.
00:32:57Thanks.
00:32:58But I have Juniper now, and she's...
00:33:01She's been amazing.
00:33:03She's been like a sister to me.
00:33:05And I guess it is pretty cool that you made it to the pros.
00:33:13You got everything you've ever dreamed of.
00:33:19I don't have everything.
00:33:26I don't have everything.
00:33:31I... I can't.
00:33:35Why?
00:33:40Carolyn, is there something you're not telling me?
00:33:43I wish you would just tell me, please.
00:33:45I can't. I can't go there, okay?
00:33:48Not yet.
00:33:51Easton!
00:33:53You're needed.
00:33:58I gotta go.
00:34:00Thank you for the bandage.
00:34:02You're welcome.
00:34:09What's up, Eastie?
00:34:10Wanna grab drinks?
00:34:11Nah, I got something I gotta do today.
00:34:13Okay.
00:34:14What do you got this afternoon?
00:34:15You got your secrets.
00:34:16I got mine, alright?
00:34:18Alright.
00:34:26Mark Downey.
00:34:29Easton Black.
00:34:31What the fuck is up, man?
00:34:33You don't know a goddamn thing about me.
00:34:36If you won't tell me the whole story, Carol, then I'm gonna find out for myself.
00:34:41Get home safe, Caroline.
00:34:47I love you.
00:34:53I'm a huge fan, bro.
00:34:55Take a seat.
00:34:57Let me pour you some of the good stuff.
00:35:05The fuck you doing here, man?
00:35:09I'm actually here to talk to you about Carolyn Mills.
00:35:13Shit.
00:35:14What's that crazy bitch up to these days?
00:35:17Oh, don't worry, Felix, by the way.
00:35:19I know she dumped you for me, but dodged a major fucking bullet.
00:35:24Did it end badly?
00:35:26End?
00:35:27It didn't even start.
00:35:29She broke up with me five minutes after she wanted to get back together.
00:35:33Fucking psycho.
00:35:35Cheers to that, am I right?
00:35:37Wait.
00:35:39So that means Haley's not yours?
00:35:42Haley?
00:35:44Who the fuck is Haley?
00:35:47Haley's Caroline's eight-year-old daughter.
00:35:50Do you not know this?
00:35:53If Haley isn't Mark's, then who's the father?
00:35:56Why would I?
00:35:57It's not like kids and mine.
00:35:59Richard, bitch, never put out for me.
00:36:00What the fuck did you say?
00:36:01Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:36:03I heard hockey players were temperamental.
00:36:05But damn.
00:36:07You know, now that I'm thinking about it,
00:36:10Caroline was hot as fuck.
00:36:13Maybe I should call her.
00:36:16You still see her around?
00:36:18How's the body after the baby?
00:36:22Did it bounce back okay?
00:36:28You're just as psycho as Caroline, bro.
00:36:30You two deserve each other.
00:36:36Grab her, let's go.
00:36:38Hey, what do you want?
00:36:39We're gonna teach you a lesson.
00:36:40Grab her, get her.
00:36:42Get her.
00:36:50Mark isn't Haley's dad.
00:36:52Why couldn't she tell me?
00:36:53Could she be...
00:36:59Please don't hurt me.
00:37:00Please, I have a daughter.
00:37:02It's not our problem, lady.
00:37:07You fucked with the wrong one.
00:37:10Yeah.
00:37:13You want to die today too?
00:37:18Then you're lucky I'm feeling generous.
00:37:21Caroline, are you okay?
00:37:26We're gonna find out who did this, okay?
00:37:29But in the meantime,
00:37:31you're not leaving here on your own again.
00:37:33I won't let that happen.
00:37:35I'm fine, I'm just a little...
00:37:38Choking up.
00:37:39Hey.
00:37:40Let's get you home, alright?
00:37:47This isn't exactly professional.
00:37:49I won't tell if you won't tell.
00:37:56This is me.
00:38:01Thank you for saving my ass.
00:38:04Again.
00:38:05Anytime.
00:38:07Carol.
00:38:10I know you and Mark didn't get back together eight years ago.
00:38:15What do you want me to say, Easton?
00:38:19I told you I'm not ready to go there right now, okay?
00:38:21What are you hiding from me?
00:38:24Mommy!
00:38:27Mommy!
00:38:28Hello!
00:38:30Mr. Easton, what are you doing here?
00:38:33Your mom here is actually having some car trouble.
00:38:34So I was helping her out.
00:38:36Car trouble?
00:38:38Everything okay?
00:38:40Yes, it is. Totally fine.
00:38:42Well, I think that it is time for Easton to go.
00:38:45Yeah?
00:38:47Or he can stay for dinner.
00:38:50I am Juniper,
00:38:52Carol's best friend.
00:38:54So nice to meet you.
00:38:56I've heard wonderful things.
00:38:58I mean, I think Easton's pretty busy, right?
00:39:00He can't stay for dinner.
00:39:01Is that right?
00:39:02No.
00:39:03I never turned down free food.
00:39:06You're not running away from this, Carol.
00:39:08Sooner or later, you're going to have to tell me the truth.
00:39:11Come on, Mom.
00:39:12You're always saying you need more friends.
00:39:15Thanks for that, sweetie.
00:39:20Okay, show them inside then.
00:39:25It's crazy how much she looks like you.
00:39:29She looks like you, too.
00:39:34So, what's your favorite color, Mr. Easton?
00:39:39Blue.
00:39:40Oh, mine's pink.
00:39:43Never would have guessed.
00:39:45Blue is my second favorite.
00:39:47Oh, do you like dogs?
00:39:49I love them.
00:39:50I've always wanted one.
00:39:51Me, too.
00:39:53What a coincidence.
00:39:55I've always wanted a dog.
00:39:57Me, too.
00:39:59I've always wanted a dog.
00:40:01Me, too.
00:40:04So, Mr. Easton, how come you keep showing up?
00:40:07Do you work with Mommy?
00:40:08Are you her friend?
00:40:10Can we just hold on to questions, please, Haley?
00:40:12Hey, I don't mind.
00:40:14No, your mom's one of my old friends.
00:40:16She's just doing a little work for me right now.
00:40:18Oh, yeah, you're a viper, right?
00:40:20I'm amazing on the ice.
00:40:22Mommy says when I get older, I could be a figure skater.
00:40:26I might even be a better skater than you.
00:40:30I'm done.
00:40:32I'm definitely better than Mommy.
00:40:34Oh, I believe it.
00:40:37She always was pretty unsteady on the skates.
00:40:40I wonder where you get all your talent from.
00:40:42Probably my dad.
00:40:46Oh, you okay?
00:40:49Yeah, I'm fine.
00:40:51Wrong pipe.
00:40:52I'm gonna, um, I'm gonna just get this out of the way.
00:40:56Okay?
00:40:57Thanks.
00:41:02Okay, get it together, Caroline.
00:41:04We either need to tell him Haley's his daughter now,
00:41:06or get him the fuck out of this house
00:41:08before he realizes it himself.
00:41:10Everything okay?
00:41:12Yeah.
00:41:14All good.
00:41:16Sorry, I'm heading out.
00:41:18Caro Easton.
00:41:20Bye.
00:41:22All right, I've got to get Haley to bed,
00:41:24so can you show yourself out?
00:41:26I don't want him to leave.
00:41:28I want Mr. Easton to read me a bedtime story.
00:41:31I'd love to.
00:41:33That is, if it's all right with your mom.
00:41:35Please, Mommy.
00:41:37Please?
00:41:39I want him to read me a bedtime story.
00:41:45Fine.
00:41:47Yay, thank you!
00:41:49Go ahead.
00:41:55And year after year,
00:41:57with his eyes shut tight,
00:41:59he would feel the breeze.
00:42:01Of the changing seasons.
00:42:10Good night, Haley.
00:42:12Good night, Mr. Easton.
00:42:32Um...
00:42:36I don't know what you want, Easton.
00:42:39I can't give that to you right now, okay?
00:42:42I don't think you know what I want, Caro.
00:42:44Eight years ago, you told me that I wouldn't make the pros,
00:42:47and that I'd completely forget about you.
00:42:50You're never gonna make the stars you think you are, Easton.
00:42:54We're done.
00:42:56You know, I don't know why it is
00:42:58that you think I'm such an immature asshole
00:42:59and only want hockey and women in fame.
00:43:02I mean, I could be out at the club
00:43:04hooking up with random girls right now
00:43:06and getting shit-faced, but I'm not.
00:43:08I'm here with you.
00:43:10Well, congratulations.
00:43:12On that, what do you want? A medal?
00:43:14Another trophy for your collection?
00:43:16No, I just want you to talk to me, Caro.
00:43:18Do you think it was a mistake
00:43:20letting me go all those years ago?
00:43:22Break up with me, Easton,
00:43:24and you are gonna get rid of that baby.
00:43:26Or else.
00:43:28No.
00:43:31No, it was the best thing I ever did.
00:43:34Can you go now?
00:43:36I'm tired.
00:43:38God, this girl.
00:43:40God, this guy.
00:43:42Fine.
00:43:44If that's the way you want it.
00:43:49Best thing she ever did.
00:43:51She can't be serious with this shit.
00:43:53I'm a fucking star now,
00:43:55and I'm giving her everything that she ever wanted
00:43:57so...
00:43:59She gave up on us.
00:44:01Now she doesn't even have the decency
00:44:03to give me an explanation.
00:44:05I don't want to hear this, man,
00:44:07but it sounds like you're still in love with her.
00:44:09Well, I mean,
00:44:11why would I love someone
00:44:13who never loved me back, you know?
00:44:15Like,
00:44:17someone who dumped me for some loser asshole
00:44:19who didn't even care about her.
00:44:21I don't know, man.
00:44:23I think she did love you.
00:44:25How the fuck do you know that?
00:44:27Does she love you now?
00:44:29It seems like she still does.
00:44:34I think I have an idea.
00:44:36No, I know.
00:44:38I practically shoved him out the door, but...
00:44:40I don't know.
00:44:42Part of me wishes he would've just stayed.
00:44:44Caroline Mills,
00:44:46you call that man back right now.
00:44:48I'm gonna have to call you back.
00:44:52He came back.
00:44:54I got a flat tire.
00:44:55Uh-huh, you got a flat tire?
00:44:57How did that happen?
00:44:59It was a nail or some stupid kid's doing something.
00:45:01I don't know.
00:45:03But, damn,
00:45:05I guess that means I'm stuck here for tonight.
00:45:09Can't you call a cab?
00:45:11No way.
00:45:13I only drive myself around.
00:45:15Oh, okay.
00:45:17Well,
00:45:19how about AAA?
00:45:21Yeah, that's actually a good idea.
00:45:26Oh.
00:45:28It's a recording.
00:45:30It says it's closed?
00:45:32Uh-huh.
00:45:34Why don't they open 24-7?
00:45:36Not anymore, I guess.
00:45:38Look,
00:45:40we've both had a long day.
00:45:42We could both use some sleep.
00:45:44Can I just crash on your couch, please?
00:45:51Hey, that way
00:45:53I can still make sure you're okay
00:45:55Oh, wow.
00:45:57Okay, well, as incredible as that sounds,
00:45:59I stopped eating Pop-Tarts like five years ago.
00:46:01So...
00:46:03Oh, come on.
00:46:05I need a real breakfast.
00:46:07Come on.
00:46:09I promise I won't leave the couch over there.
00:46:11Juniper probably stays there all the time.
00:46:13Uh-huh.
00:46:15Yeah, she does, but Juniper is my friend.
00:46:17And I'm not your friend?
00:46:21He came back this time.
00:46:23And he's not letting me push him away.
00:46:25Maybe he really has changed.
00:46:27Maybe...
00:46:29in the morning I can finally tell him.
00:46:33Fine.
00:46:35You can stay.
00:46:37I got your extensions under the sink if you need.
00:46:39Okay, please don't burn my house down.
00:46:41Okay?
00:46:52I wish I was out there with him.
00:46:53I wish I was out there with him.
00:47:01Haley, where's your mom?
00:47:03She's sleeping.
00:47:08Would it help you make breakfast?
00:47:10Yeah.
00:47:12Is it broken?
00:47:14All right, now pour a little bit of milk in there.
00:47:16Here we go.
00:47:18Okay, now we got a milk stamp.
00:47:19Hey!
00:47:21Oh, no!
00:47:23Oh, no!
00:47:25I messed up.
00:47:27Yeah, not as sippy as it was.
00:47:50Haley?
00:47:52Haley, where...
00:47:54What is all this?
00:47:56We made you pancakes, Mommy.
00:47:58Me and Mr. Easton.
00:48:00We made you pancakes, Mommy.
00:48:02Me and Mr. Easton.
00:48:04You did?
00:48:06Try one.
00:48:08We made them with lots of love
00:48:10and extra chocolate chips.
00:48:12Mmm.
00:48:14I'm so excited.
00:48:16I'm so excited.
00:48:17Mmm.
00:48:19Yum, delicious.
00:48:23You know, I'm amazed
00:48:25that you found the time to go be a big hockey star
00:48:27and learn how to cook.
00:48:29How does he do it?
00:48:31I told you, I've grown up more than you think, Carol.
00:48:33Mm-hmm.
00:48:35But Haley was a huge help.
00:48:37She's a great kid, Carol.
00:48:39I mean, of course she is.
00:48:41She's your kid.
00:48:43All I know is that he can never find out
00:48:45that he has a daughter.
00:48:48Well,
00:48:50I'm going to go get changed
00:48:52while you two clean up a little bit.
00:48:54Then we can dig in.
00:48:56Let's get you cleaned up
00:48:58before we get in trouble.
00:49:00Yeah.
00:49:03You have a birthmark on your neck.
00:49:05Yeah.
00:49:07You do, too.
00:49:09Are you okay, Mr. Easton?
00:49:13Haley,
00:49:15I'm sorry.
00:49:17I need to go.
00:49:22What?
00:49:24I just heard the door closed.
00:49:26Did Easton just leave?
00:49:29Yeah.
00:49:31I'm so sorry.
00:49:33I'm so sorry.
00:49:35I'm so sorry.
00:49:36Yeah.
00:49:39I can't wait any longer.
00:49:41As soon as we have a moment alone,
00:49:43I'm telling Easton the truth.
00:49:47So let me get this straight.
00:49:49You think Haley is your child,
00:49:51but instead of talking to Caroline about it,
00:49:53you just left?
00:49:55He just left without saying anything?
00:49:57Yeah.
00:49:59There has to be some emergency here.
00:50:01I didn't know what to do, bro.
00:50:03Like, I could have confronted her with Haley
00:50:04if she was just sitting right there.
00:50:07God, why didn't she tell me?
00:50:09Why didn't you say anything when you had the chance?
00:50:12Only Caroline can answer that, dude.
00:50:14You have to sit down and you have to talk to her.
00:50:16Enough is enough, Caro.
00:50:18You have to tell her the truth.
00:50:26Easton.
00:50:28Caro, we need to talk.
00:50:30Meet me at Main Street Diner in a half hour.
00:50:32Mm-hmm. Yeah, I'll be there.
00:50:42Easton, I have something I have to tell you.
00:50:44About fucking time.
00:50:46Excuse me?
00:50:48Do you think I've been living under a rock, Caroline?
00:50:50Seriously, I may play hockey, but I'm not stupid.
00:50:53I know that.
00:50:55Don't you think it's a little weird
00:50:57that Haley called me daddy the first time that I met her, huh?
00:50:59And she's super into hockey, too.
00:51:01Caroline, she has the same goddamn birthmark that I have.
00:51:04Easton, you don't know what happened.
00:51:06Okay, you don't know what happened.
00:51:08I went and talked to Mark yesterday.
00:51:10You what?
00:51:12You went to go see my ex behind my back?
00:51:14What the hell else was I supposed to do?
00:51:16You weren't telling me anything, Caroline.
00:51:18Caroline, wait.
00:51:20Wait.
00:51:22Just tell me the truth.
00:51:24Just say it.
00:51:26Just say it.
00:51:28Haley's your daughter?
00:51:30Easton.
00:51:35Why didn't you tell me?
00:51:38Huh?
00:51:40Why did you keep this from me for eight fucking years?
00:51:43Caroline, tell me.
00:51:45Why did you leave me?
00:51:47Huh?
00:51:49You are going to break up with Easton
00:51:51and you are going to get rid of that baby.
00:51:53Or else.
00:51:55What?
00:51:57Did you think that I couldn't handle being a father?
00:51:59Did you think that I would really leave you?
00:52:01Leave our child?
00:52:03Go off and fuck around with some stupid hockey groupies?
00:52:05Is that it?
00:52:07You did.
00:52:09No.
00:52:11You may not have known that I was pregnant, but
00:52:14you did leave me.
00:52:17You went off to college
00:52:19and you never even looked back.
00:52:21No texts, no calls.
00:52:22You...
00:52:24You forgot about me.
00:52:27And I waited.
00:52:29Oh, for nine months, I waited for something,
00:52:31for anything from you.
00:52:33A message?
00:52:36I waited in a hospital bed
00:52:39for 12 hours
00:52:41in labor.
00:52:43Staring at the door,
00:52:45hoping that by some miracle
00:52:47you would walk through it.
00:52:48I know I should have told you about Haley.
00:52:50I know that.
00:52:52And I regret not telling you
00:52:54every day of my fucking life.
00:52:58I thought you left me for Mark.
00:53:00I thought you left me for a reason.
00:53:02That you...
00:53:04That you didn't love me.
00:53:06Easton.
00:53:08We're done.
00:53:11No.
00:53:13And then you just let me walk away with him.
00:53:15You didn't even try.
00:53:16You let me walk away with him.
00:53:18You didn't even try to fight for me.
00:53:21Well, I'm fighting for you now.
00:53:25Well, I'm fighting for you now.
00:53:35This reminds me of the night before you left.
00:53:37The last night together.
00:53:41I think about that all the time, Carol.
00:53:43You know, sometimes...
00:53:44Sometimes, honestly, I feel like...
00:53:46I feel like that was the last time
00:53:48I was truly happy, you know?
00:53:50Before I saw you again.
00:53:52Before I found out about Haley.
00:53:55Easton, you became the youngest
00:53:57MVP in the league.
00:53:59You made millions.
00:54:01You're a star.
00:54:03Easton.
00:54:05Yeah, I know.
00:54:07And, you know,
00:54:09every time that I score a big goal,
00:54:11every time that I get good news,
00:54:12all I want to do is call and tell you.
00:54:16Carol, I knew that you were working
00:54:18at the Vipers' rink.
00:54:20I knew that I had to see you again.
00:54:22Because eight years ago,
00:54:24you told me that I wouldn't be successful.
00:54:26You told me that I would forget about you.
00:54:28But I can't.
00:54:30I just can't.
00:54:33And I've worked my ass off
00:54:35to become the kind of man
00:54:37that you'd want to stay with.
00:54:39The kind of man that...
00:54:40Hey, the kind of man that you'd want
00:54:42to raise a child with.
00:54:44You are.
00:54:46I'm proud of you.
00:54:48Easton, I am so proud of you.
00:54:52Does this mean that you want to pick up
00:54:54where we left off?
00:54:56Yeah.
00:54:58Look,
00:55:00Easton, before you came back,
00:55:02my life, it was hard.
00:55:04Mm-hmm.
00:55:06But it was simple.
00:55:08You know, I had Haley, I had Jun.
00:55:10I was finally
00:55:12starting to get over you.
00:55:14Yeah.
00:55:17Why'd you have to come back now?
00:55:20Well, isn't it obvious, Carolyn?
00:55:23I'm still totally,
00:55:25I'm totally, completely
00:55:27in love with you, Carolyn.
00:55:29Easton, there's something else
00:55:31that I have to tell you.
00:55:33It doesn't matter.
00:55:35You don't even need to say anything.
00:55:37I need you.
00:55:38I want you, Carolyn.
00:55:39I want you.
00:55:41I want you.
00:55:43I want you.
00:55:45I want you.
00:55:48I want you.
00:55:50I want you.
00:55:52I want you.
00:55:54I want you.
00:55:56I want you.
00:55:58I want you.
00:56:00I want you.
00:56:02I want you.
00:56:04I want you.
00:56:06I want you.
00:56:07I want you.
00:56:09I want you.
00:56:11I want you.
00:56:13I want you.
00:56:15I want you.
00:56:17I want you.
00:56:19I want you.
00:56:21I want you.
00:56:23I want you.
00:56:25I want you.
00:56:27I want you.
00:56:29I want you.
00:56:31I want you.
00:56:33I want you.
00:56:35I want you.
00:56:38I feel like we're 16 again.
00:56:42Like no time has passed at all.
00:56:46Carol, why did you walk away back then?
00:56:49Because whatever the reason is, I need to know.
00:56:52Because I'm sure as hell not losing you ever again.
00:56:57And you are going to get rid of that baby, or else.
00:57:03I was
00:57:05young
00:57:08and impressionable
00:57:10and stupid
00:57:13and I didn't want to hold you back.
00:57:20I'm sorry I didn't tell you about Hayley.
00:57:23Sorry for all of those lost years.
00:57:25But we were babies.
00:57:27Easton, I'd known you for one summer.
00:57:31God, I was so sure that you were the one.
00:57:34But then I got pregnant and
00:57:38I don't know, I just started to question everything.
00:57:47I never had a single doubt about you, Carol.
00:57:50My only regret is that I didn't tell you.
00:57:53And that I
00:57:55didn't beat Mark's ass right then and there.
00:57:56And that I
00:57:58didn't beat Mark's ass right then and there.
00:58:03But we lost a lot of time together.
00:58:05You know,
00:58:07we have a lot to catch up on, so it's a good thing that we're starting now.
00:58:17What?
00:58:18What are you thinking about?
00:58:20How the hell are we going to break the news to Hayley?
00:58:27Go, go, go!
00:58:29The Vipers are looking great out there.
00:58:31They're definitely going to win the first game tomorrow.
00:58:33We better.
00:58:35You know, the Rhinos are a tough team.
00:58:37And if we lose, then I worry the guys are going to lose trust in me
00:58:40before I even have a chance to prove myself as captain.
00:58:42Hey.
00:58:44I have all the faith in the world in you, Easton.
00:58:46Okay?
00:58:48Thanks, Carol.
00:58:51I want you and Hayley there as my VIP guest tomorrow.
00:58:54I would be honored.
00:58:57And
00:58:59I was also thinking that
00:59:01maybe we tell Hayley after the game tomorrow.
00:59:04It'll be perfect, because we'll all be together.
00:59:06The spirits are going to be high,
00:59:08hopefully.
00:59:09They will.
00:59:11They will.
00:59:13They will.
00:59:14They will.
00:59:15The spirits are going to be high, hopefully.
00:59:17They will.
00:59:19It seems as good a time as any to do it.
00:59:21Yeah.
00:59:23I think you're right.
00:59:25The longer we wait, the harder it'll be.
00:59:27Right?
00:59:29The question is,
00:59:31what do we say to her?
00:59:34I was thinking that we go,
00:59:36Surprise!
00:59:38I'm your dad!
00:59:40Okay, okay.
00:59:42I think the spirit there is really good,
00:59:43but I don't know what to say.
00:59:45Dad?
00:59:49Caroline Mills is Easton Black's baby mama?
00:59:53Oh, she is going down.
00:59:58Jack.
01:00:01Um, hi!
01:00:03Okay, what is all of this?
01:00:05Today is the biggest day of Easton's career.
01:00:07We have a lot of work to do, babe.
01:00:09What do you mean by we?
01:00:11I may or may not have gotten
01:00:13into the game today, too.
01:00:15Okay, by who?
01:00:17Ziggy.
01:00:19What?
01:00:21You are not the only one
01:00:23who can pull a hockey player.
01:00:25Will you be sunshine in 24-7?
01:00:27Because when we're together,
01:00:29it feels like we're in heaven.
01:00:31If it will get dark,
01:00:33you'll be my million stars.
01:00:35I know I can lean on you.
01:00:37I'm excited.
01:00:39I'm making a song for all my dreams.
01:00:41A pigtail?
01:00:43No, I don't think this kind of feeling
01:00:45never felt so right.
01:00:47My heart is on the table
01:00:49because you're my everything.
01:00:51I do, do, do, do, do.
01:00:53I want to marry you.
01:00:55I can't marry you, Elizabeth.
01:00:57Get it! Get it! Get it!
01:00:59I do.

01:01:03courtesy of Easton Black.
01:01:08Oh, we are traveling in style, ladies.
01:01:11It looks like Easton thought of everything.
01:01:13I know.
01:01:19I'll be here any minute.
01:01:21Junie runs a tight ship.
01:01:23Junie?
01:01:25Huh.
01:01:27You guys are already on a nickname basis, huh?
01:01:29Oh, speak of the devil.
01:01:31Thank you for inviting us, Mr. Easton.
01:01:33I'm so glad you guys came.
01:01:35We learned a message from the world.
01:01:37All right, let's head out.
01:01:39Let's get out of here.
01:01:41Let's do it.
01:01:43What the fuck?
01:01:50Hello, we are reporting to you live
01:01:53from the side of the ice rink today.
01:01:55We have vipers versus...
01:01:57I have to go back out on the ice.
01:01:59If anyone gives you a hard time,
01:02:01just give me a call.
01:02:03Come back out there.
01:02:05Break a leg, Miss Jason.
01:02:07Not literally, though.
01:02:09Please.
01:02:11Let's get it.
01:02:14Okay.
01:02:16Great to see you again.
01:02:20That slimy little bitch
01:02:22might have warmed her way
01:02:24to the big leagues with Easton,
01:02:26but I'm about to blow up
01:02:28her fairy tale at landing.
01:02:30We have Easton Black here today.
01:02:32What do you think we can expect from him?
01:02:34He was a very dominant player in college,
01:02:36and he'll be looking to continue
01:02:38that dominance in the pros.
01:02:40Looks like we have
01:02:41a very excited fan here.
01:02:43We will be back with you momentarily.
01:02:45Over to you in the studio.
01:02:47What?
01:03:12What?
01:03:14Huh?
01:03:16Huh?
01:03:18Huh?
01:03:20Huh?
01:03:22Huh?
01:03:24Huh?
01:03:26Huh?
01:03:28Huh?
01:03:30Huh?
01:03:32Huh?
01:03:34Huh?
01:03:36Huh?
01:03:38Huh?
01:03:40Huh?
01:03:42Huh?
01:03:44And there you have it, folks.
01:03:46That is the game.
01:03:48Three to zero.
01:03:50A complete shutout for the Vipers
01:03:52thanks to superstar Easton Black.
01:03:54That was so incredible.
01:03:56You're so incredible.
01:03:58Mr. Easton, you rock.
01:04:00Easton, how does it feel
01:04:02to win the game for your daughter?
01:04:04My daughter?
01:04:05My daughter?
01:04:09Yes, how does it feel to be here with your family?
01:04:13Easton, is it true? Is this really your daughter?
01:04:16What is her name? And is this the baby mama?
01:04:20Did you tell someone?
01:04:22No, of course not.
01:04:26Come on Hayley, let's go.
01:04:35Mr. Easton, really my daddy?
01:04:43Mr. Easton, really my daddy?
01:04:46You told me my daddy was gone.
01:04:49You told me Mr. Easton was just your friend.
01:04:52I did.
01:04:55Hayley, there is something that I haven't told you.
01:04:58Easton is...
01:05:01Your father.
01:05:03Mommy, I want to go home.
01:05:05I know baby.
01:05:06Hayley, I can explain.
01:05:07Easton, it's not the time right now.
01:05:10I'm going to fix this, okay?
01:05:17Who would have thought, some poor, boring, pain in my ass, single mom,
01:05:22this Easton Black's baby mama?
01:05:25Hayley, baby, I need you to go wait right over here for me.
01:05:28I need you to cover your ears and close your eyes as tight as you can, all right?
01:05:35You leeched the news, didn't you?
01:05:38Of course I did.
01:05:41What the hell were you thinking bringing my daughter into this?
01:05:45This is my life.
01:05:47My family.
01:05:48What about my life?
01:05:50The hockey star is supposed to want me, not some broke bitch in her stupid bra top.
01:05:56Whoa, you do not talk about Hayley like that.
01:05:59You stole my chance to tell my daughter about her father.
01:06:03You fucked with me and my family.
01:06:07But you won't bring me down, bitch.
01:06:10No!
01:06:22Lucinda!
01:06:24Hey!
01:06:30What are you doing?
01:06:31She assaulted Carolyn.
01:06:33And she's the one who broke the news about me and Easton.
01:06:35I bet she's the one that sent the thugs on you, too.
01:06:38Lucy, is that true?
01:06:40I'm still your daughter, right?
01:06:44Yes.
01:06:45No!
01:06:46No!
01:06:47Dad!
01:06:48I'm supposed to be me!
01:06:50I'm supposed to be the high-hockey girlfriend!
01:06:53Dad!
01:06:58I'm supposed to be the high-hockey girlfriend!
01:07:03Yes, you are.
01:07:06Easton, your personal life is none of my business.
01:07:11Especially when you play the way you played today.
01:07:13Good job in there.
01:07:14Now, if you're up for it, when you get back in, do a proper post-game interview.
01:07:18What do you say?
01:07:20Just give me a minute, Coach.
01:07:22I got it.
01:07:24And I'm sorry for that.
01:07:28Thanks, Coach.
01:07:32Are you okay?
01:07:34I mean, I'm better than Lucinda.
01:07:36Yeah.
01:07:37Well, she had that coming.
01:07:38Yeah.
01:07:40Carolyn, I never realized how much of a badass you actually are.
01:07:43I can't believe I ever called you weak.
01:07:45I know!
01:07:46I will literally never let you live that down.
01:07:58Oh, my God, Hayley.
01:07:59Thanks for taking my mommy today.
01:08:01Of course.
01:08:02Of course.
01:08:03Were you scared?
01:08:04A little, but I feel better now.
01:08:06Hayley, we are so sorry.
01:08:07We need to find out about Easton this way.
01:08:09Yeah, we were planning on telling you ourselves today.
01:08:12But, you know, whatever you're feeling right now, we're always here for you, okay?
01:08:18It's okay.
01:08:20I'm just happy the daddy from my dream is real.
01:08:22Aw.
01:08:25If you're my dad now, does that mean you and Mommy are getting married?
01:08:29Oh.
01:08:31You know what?
01:08:32Easton and I have a lot we still need to talk about.
01:08:34Yes.
01:08:35Yes?
01:08:36What?
01:08:42Easton.
01:08:45Mom, what are you doing here?
01:08:49It's good to see you too, son.
01:08:54Can you take a break?
01:08:57You remember Carolyn, right?
01:08:59Of course.
01:09:00How could I forget?
01:09:04Break up with Easton, and you are going to get rid of that baby or else.
01:09:10And that must be her daughter.
01:09:11Our daughter.
01:09:14You went through with the pregnancy after all.
01:09:16How did you know that Carol was pregnant?
01:09:20I paid her off.
01:09:23I paid her off to dump you and get rid of the baby.
01:09:26I told her that if she didn't,
01:09:29I would make you believe that she got pregnant to trap you.
01:09:34Wait.
01:09:35Wait.
01:09:36To ruin your life and your career.
01:09:38So you just came back here to what?
01:09:40You came back here after one of the biggest wins of my career.
01:09:43No.
01:09:44And destroy my relationship again.
01:09:45I'm so sorry to both of you.
01:09:46How could you?
01:09:50Carolyn, why didn't you tell me?
01:09:53All this time.
01:09:55I thought you stopped believing in me.
01:09:57That you changed your mind about me.
01:10:00That you've fallen out of love with me.
01:10:02I could have rejected the money.
01:10:04And I could have come to you and I could have told you what happened and
01:10:07begged you to stay with me.
01:10:08But come on, let's face it.
01:10:09If you had stayed, you never would have become the man you are today.
01:10:13Do I wish I hadn't lost eight years with you?
01:10:17Yes.
01:10:18I wish Haley could have met her dad sooner.
01:10:21Of course I do.
01:10:23But we needed that time to grow,
01:10:27figure out what we want and then at the perfect time come back together.
01:10:32I don't agree with what you did.
01:10:36I never will.
01:10:39But I do forgive you.
01:10:42It's very generous, Carolyn.
01:10:44I'm sorry, but I can't.
01:10:49Can we speak for a moment?
01:10:55I know nothing I do can ever really make up for my mistakes.
01:11:00I came here today to remind you of something.
01:11:07How did you know about that?
01:11:15I found it in the trash the day Carolyn broke up with you.
01:11:22Found it by my bed the next morning.
01:11:26You're the one who put it there.
01:11:28I knew as soon as I saw it, I made a mistake.
01:11:30But I was too ashamed to admit what I did.
01:11:34I knew if it was meant to be, you would keep it.
01:11:38And you would find your love again.
01:11:41I'd like to meet my granddaughter sometime when the time is right.
01:11:47Good job today, son.
01:11:56You going to finish what you started?
01:11:59I have a better idea.
01:12:02On the ice today.
01:12:05Go ahead, ask me another question.
01:12:08Easton, you played such an incredible game today.
01:12:11What inspired this?
01:12:14Having my daughter and the love of my life by my side.
01:12:17Oh!
01:12:23Caroline Mills.
01:12:29Will you marry me?
01:12:35Will you marry me?
01:12:37Yes!
01:12:40How long have you had this?
01:12:54Eight years.
01:12:56I've had it since I left for college.
01:12:58I knew then that I wanted to be with you forever.
01:13:02I know it's a little small now.
01:13:04I wasn't exactly making millions back then.
01:13:06But I promise I'm going to upgrade this one.
01:13:11No, don't you dare.
01:13:12It's perfect.
01:13:14You got me a present?
01:13:15A special one.
01:13:16Can I open it?
01:13:17Yes, go for it.
01:13:19You got me a jersey with your name on it?
01:13:36You got me a jersey with your name on it?
01:13:46Can I try it on?
01:13:49Absolutely!
01:13:50Go for it!
01:13:51I got you a present too.
01:13:54What?
01:13:55Close your eyes and hold your hand up.
01:13:58Okay.
01:14:06The key's to a new house.
01:14:08Our new house.
01:14:12I love you.
01:14:13Mommy, Daddy, look! It fits perfectly!
01:14:15It does!
01:14:18I can't tell you how long I've been waiting for her to call me Daddy.
01:14:22I love you too.
01:14:24I love you too, Daddy.
01:14:26I love you too, Carol.
01:14:36I love you too, Carol.
