00:00:00Can you tell him this is my apartment?
00:00:03I checked.
00:00:04It seems my husband made a mistake and double leased this apartment to both of you.
00:00:07Excuse me, what are you doing?
00:00:08You're living with a guy?
00:00:09Yeah, it's a really long story.
00:00:10It burns.
00:00:11It burns.
00:00:12Do not laugh at me.
00:00:13Well, is he hot at least?
00:00:14Yeah, and it makes it kind of worse.
00:00:15Remember when I said I had a roommate?
00:00:16Come on in.
00:00:17And now he's also my boss.
00:00:18Corinne.
00:00:19I'm Corinne.
00:00:20I'm new to the team.
00:00:21Welcome to TurnTide Media.
00:00:22Have a nightcap with me later and the deal is yours.
00:00:23Look, I don't know who the fuck you think you are, but I am not that kind of girl.
00:00:41Okay?
00:00:42I don't play nice with men like you.
00:00:43You let an employee talk to a client like that?
00:00:44Do you want our business or not?
00:00:45You talk to a client like that, do you want our business or not?
00:00:52Let's go.
00:00:57I'm starving.
00:00:58There's muffins on the counter.
00:01:02I'm sorry, just let me stay.
00:01:07I just really want to kiss you already.
00:01:15Dude, Corinne is a Carlton.
00:01:18Comes from one of the wealthiest families in the country.
00:01:21Andy comes from a rich family.
00:01:23Rhodes Hotels.
00:01:26Why would she hide that?
00:01:38Excuse me, what are you doing?
00:01:40I'm opening my apartment door.
00:01:42What does it look like?
00:01:43No, that is my apartment.
00:01:46I just got the keys.
00:01:49Yeah, I think you're mixed up, princess.
00:01:52Maybe you're in 105.
00:01:54Nice try, I think I know what my apartment is.
00:01:57I think you're in 105, so just...
00:02:01Yeah, I don't think so.
00:02:04Bye-bye now, and good luck with whatever it is you've got going on.
00:02:07Wait!
00:02:13Mommy?
00:02:19Case in point.
00:02:21What the hell are you doing?
00:02:23Let go of the door, asshole!
00:02:24I am not an asshole, this is my door!
00:02:26It's my apartment!
00:02:27No, it is not!
00:02:29Quiet out there!
00:02:30I'm trying to watch the game!
00:02:40Can you tell her this is my apartment?
00:02:41This is my apartment!
00:02:43I checked.
00:02:44It seems my husband made a mistake and double-leased this apartment to both of you.
00:02:49Okay, well, is there another unit you could give her?
00:02:51Because I'm not leaving.
00:02:52Well, I am not leaving.
00:02:53Unfortunately, this is our last available unit.
00:02:56Well, I sincerely hope that you can figure something else out.
00:03:00I will pay double deposit if you let me have this place.
00:03:02Excuse me?
00:03:03Ma'am, I'm serious, you have no idea how badly I need this.
00:03:08Here, take my credit card.
00:03:20What?
00:03:21How?
00:03:23How?
00:03:25Well, well, well.
00:03:28Can I have the apartment now?
00:03:29No.
00:03:30No.
00:03:31I paid the deposit and got approved.
00:03:33Same as you.
00:03:34Unfortunately, Mr. Rhodes did apply first.
00:03:37Oh, please, call me Andy.
00:03:41Andy!
00:03:42How could you be this cruel?
00:03:46First, you leave me at the altar and now you're trying to steal our apartment?
00:03:51You know, I really thought that you loved me.
00:03:53Are you two?
00:03:54No.
00:03:55No, no, no.
00:03:56I don't know this woman.
00:03:57I've never met her before in my life.
00:04:00We celebrated our five-year anniversary in April.
00:04:03And our first date was on the pier.
00:04:06You won me an octopus, Andy!
00:04:07An octo-what?
00:04:09Seriously, I don't know this woman.
00:04:11Ma'am, if he says he doesn't know you, I have to abide by policy.
00:04:19I'm pregnant.
00:04:21You can't abandon me on the streets with a baby on the way.
00:04:32With a baby on the way?
00:04:34No, no, no.
00:04:35You can't believe a word she is saying.
00:04:36She is crazy.
00:04:37Mr. Rhodes.
00:04:38If you can't reconcile with your poor fiancé, I'm going to have to call security.
00:04:46Since you both paid a deposit, the first two months' rent is covered.
00:04:53Okay, who are you?
00:04:54You don't recognize the girl you left at the altar?
00:04:58Really hurts, Andy.
00:05:03Okay, look, I had to do something.
00:05:04Today was my wedding day.
00:05:05And I just really couldn't go through with it, so I ran.
00:05:08I kind of gathered that.
00:05:09My credit cards are frozen.
00:05:10Oh, my bank account is probably drained, too.
00:05:12Look, it was really an emergency.
00:05:14Okay, what is your name?
00:05:17Corinne.
00:05:18Corinne Car-
00:05:19Um...
00:05:20I got car-ter.
00:05:22Okay, Corinne.
00:05:24You know, you seem really nice and sane and all.
00:05:27But emergency or not, you just manipulated your way into my apartment.
00:05:31Your apartment?
00:05:33Well, you did hear her, right?
00:05:35I did pay half of the rent for the next two months.
00:05:37Oh, well, how are you going to pay that when it's up?
00:05:40You're broke.
00:05:42I will figure it out, okay?
00:05:44Just relax.
00:05:50No, don't.
00:05:51Don't do this, Andy.
00:05:52Look, this is a bad idea.
00:05:53You don't even know her.
00:05:54Why would you feel baffled?
00:05:55It makes no sense.
00:06:04Ahem.
00:06:10Um, I think you lost something there.
00:06:12Magic Mike?
00:06:17I think you lost something there.
00:06:19Magic Mike?
00:06:20Oh, on the contrary.
00:06:22I'm making myself at home.
00:06:24This is my apartment.
00:06:26So I can wear or not wear whatever I want.
00:06:30Are you sure you can handle this arrangement?
00:06:33You've never lived with a guy before.
00:06:36You might want to back down.
00:06:38I don't want to make you uncomfortable.
00:06:52Rest assured, despite this tempting face and this nice body,
00:07:01I'm just fine.
00:07:04The real question is whether you will be.
00:07:10Um, what, uh, what's this book?
00:07:16Well, you would know if it wasn't upside down.
00:07:26I'm cleaning this one.
00:07:27What?
00:07:28Did someone else service?
00:07:29I wanted that room.
00:07:30Ah, come on.
00:07:31It gets the good light and everything.
00:07:33It should have been faster done.
00:07:43Hey, Corinne.
00:07:45I heard what happened.
00:07:46I'm so sorry.
00:07:47No, it's okay, Monica.
00:07:49I mean, it was probably for the best.
00:07:51It was my choice after all.
00:07:52That's good to hear.
00:07:54So, I sent your sevens package to your personal email.
00:07:57Since your work email was deactivated,
00:07:59just take a look and sign it when you can.
00:08:01My what?
00:08:02Your severance package.
00:08:04Did your dad not...
00:08:05He's firing me?
00:08:07Oh, my God.
00:08:09Corinne, I'm so sorry.
00:08:11I would love to help you, but...
00:08:12Your dad threatened me.
00:08:13Yeah, well, it sounds like him.
00:08:15No, it's, it's okay, Monica.
00:08:17I, I got an apartment.
00:08:19At least I have somewhere to live.
00:08:20Well, that's good.
00:08:21How's the new place?
00:08:23It's... fine.
00:08:27Ugh, my roommate.
00:08:28He's kind of an asshole, but he's fine.
00:08:31He?
00:08:32You're living with a guy?
00:08:33Yeah, it's a really long story.
00:08:35Remind me to tell you about it at some point.
00:08:37Well, is he hot at least?
00:08:41Yeah, and it makes it kind of worse.
00:08:43Well, you let me know if he tries anything.
00:08:45I'll come over there and teach him a lesson.
00:08:47I've gotta go.
00:08:48I'm really sorry, Cory.
00:08:50I'll catch you later.
00:08:51Bye.
00:08:53I'm just when I thought it couldn't get any worse.
00:08:56Okay, go ahead.
00:09:06Hurry up, I need to pee.
00:09:17Sorry, what did you say?
00:09:18It's loud in here.
00:09:20Did you say it's loud in here?
00:09:22Look, get out, I need to pee.
00:09:26Yeah, no, just take your time.
00:09:28It's not like the rest of us have bladders or anything.
00:09:30Look, I've got a job interview and I've got to look my best.
00:09:33Okay.
00:09:40Hello?
00:09:41What are you still doing in here?
00:09:43I am not done with my hair.
00:09:45You can go ahead, I'm not going to look.
00:09:47Are you insane?
00:09:48I mean, I can't use the bathroom while you're in it.
00:09:50Wow, I really didn't take you for a prude, Andy.
00:09:54I guess you're just going to have to wait a little bit longer.
00:09:56I am serious, I'm going to be late for work.
00:10:00Okay, fine.
00:10:02Catch you later.
00:10:05Okay, get it together, Andy.
00:10:06She's just your roommate.
00:10:11Oh my god.
00:10:14Well, Corinne, your experience at the Carleton Group speaks for itself.
00:10:20And with a sharp wit like that, you will fit right in here at TurnTide.
00:10:25Where can you start?
00:10:26I can actually start right now.
00:10:28Excellent.
00:10:29The boss will love you.
00:10:32He has been looking for a decent person to fill this empty position on his team for months.
00:10:37I can introduce you.
00:10:39Wait, that would be perfect.
00:10:40Let's go.
00:10:41Great.
00:10:44Come on in.
00:10:48I'm Corinne.
00:10:51Yes, the promising candidate I was telling you about.
00:10:55I just interviewed her and I think she'll be a perfect fit.
00:10:59I'll leave you guys to it.
00:11:04So this is the interview that you spent an hour preparing for.
00:11:09Well, too bad you won't be getting the job.
00:11:13Wait, that's not fair.
00:11:14I had no idea that this was your ad agency, okay?
00:11:17And you cannot punish me for an innocent mistake.
00:11:20Well, actually, as it is my ad agency, I can do whatever I want.
00:11:24Okay, well then how do you expect me to pay your precious little rent if I don't have a job?
00:11:28It's easy.
00:11:29Go find a job somewhere else.
00:11:32Leave.
00:11:34Ugh.
00:11:36Oh my God.
00:11:39I am so sorry.
00:11:40I was not looking where I was going.
00:11:43Oh, are you reading Apricots?
00:11:46I love this book.
00:11:47I read it in high school.
00:11:48Oh, really?
00:11:49I've never met anyone who's actually read it.
00:11:51Oh, um, Ms. Rosenberg.
00:11:53Oh, Ms. Rosenberg.
00:11:54Oh, Ms. Rosenberg.
00:11:55Ms. Rosenberg.
00:11:56Ms. Rosenberg.
00:11:57Ms. Rosenberg.
00:11:58Ms. Rosenberg.
00:11:59Ms. Rosenberg.
00:12:00Ms. Rosenberg.
00:12:01Ms. Rosenberg.
00:12:02Ms. Rosenberg.
00:12:03Ms. Rosenberg.
00:12:04Ms. Rosenberg.
00:12:05I didn't know you were coming in today.
00:12:07Please, step into my office so we can discuss the rebranding.
00:12:10No worries at all.
00:12:11I was early.
00:12:12I just met your very impressive associate.
00:12:15I feel good about turntide media already.
00:12:18You know, it's so nice to see such bright minds here.
00:12:21Well, actually...
00:12:22Uh, yes.
00:12:24This is Corinne.
00:12:25She is the newest addition to our marketing team.
00:12:27It's her first day.
00:12:29It is?
00:12:32It is?
00:12:33Yep.
00:12:34It is?
00:12:35It is.
00:12:36Go wait in the break room.
00:12:37I'll give you a tour in a second.
00:12:39You better treat her nicely, Rhodes.
00:12:40I would steal her from my company in a heartbeat.
00:13:04Hi.
00:13:05I'm Corinne.
00:13:06I'm new to the team.
00:13:08We saw.
00:13:09You really put on a show out there.
00:13:13Do you need anything, Corinne?
00:13:14Oh, wait.
00:13:15Are you the coffee girl?
00:13:16You know, I would really, really love a matcha latte.
00:13:18We only have coffee, I'm afraid.
00:13:21I'll make you some.
00:13:22I'm a summer.
00:13:28So, what were your names again?
00:13:34Oh.
00:13:36Lilia.
00:13:37Welcome to Turntide Media.
00:13:48Uh, Mr. Rhodes would like to see you in his office.
00:13:58Come in.
00:14:04What the hell happened to you?
00:14:06I...
00:14:08It was the coffee machine.
00:14:09Super finicky.
00:14:11Do you mind if I go home and change?
00:14:13You're living out of a duffel bag.
00:14:15Do you have anything to change into?
00:14:17Okay.
00:14:21Here.
00:14:22Take my card.
00:14:24Go get yourself some new clothes.
00:14:26We have a client meeting later tonight.
00:14:28You can't go looking like that.
00:14:30No, I couldn't take your...
00:14:31No, take it.
00:14:33I see it as an investment in company talent.
00:14:36Take it, Corinne.
00:14:39Alright then.
00:14:41So I'll see you back at the apartment and we can go from there?
00:14:44See you.
00:14:47Have fun.
00:14:48I will.
00:14:49Bye.
00:15:04What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:15:09What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:15:16Who spends $10,000 in one afternoon?
00:15:20You do.
00:15:21I do.
00:15:22I do.
00:15:23I do.
00:15:24I do.
00:15:25I do.
00:15:26I do.
00:15:27I do.
00:15:28I do.
00:15:29I do.
00:15:30I do.
00:15:31I do.
00:15:32I spend $10,000 in one afternoon using somebody else's money.
00:15:37Fuck, Murphy.
00:15:39I'm sorry, did you just say $10,000?
00:15:41Yes!
00:15:42My bank called me.
00:15:43They thought my credit card was stolen.
00:15:45What the hell, Corinne?
00:15:46I'm so sorry.
00:15:47I didn't even look at the tax.
00:15:48I just picked out things that I like.
00:15:49This is how you shop?
00:15:51Uh, high end luxury stores without looking at the price?
00:15:54I mean, before you ran away, what where you?
00:15:57Look, I will return everything.
00:15:58I have the receipt, okay?
00:15:59It, it's somewhere.
00:16:01is that this will all be resolved by tomorrow.
00:16:05Corinne, just...
00:16:07I'm not happy about how this happened, but...
00:16:10Don't go to the trouble, it's whatever.
00:16:12Now come on, we have to go meet with that client, so...
00:16:15Chop-chop.
00:16:16Whatever, you're not mad?
00:16:18I mean, I was when I thought you were taking advantage of me,
00:16:20but turns out you are just completely financially irresponsible.
00:16:24Hey!
00:16:25Am I wrong?
00:16:27Look, I can return everything, okay?
00:16:29Look, just forget it.
00:16:30It's not a big deal.
00:16:35Ten thousand dollars down the drain, and it's just...
00:16:39Whatever?
00:16:42What is he like?
00:16:51Apologies for the delay, Mr. Kepner.
00:16:53Rush hour traffic.
00:16:54No matter, boy.
00:16:58Now, who do we have here?
00:16:59Oh, Corinne Carter.
00:17:01I am the new marketing associate with Turntide Media.
00:17:04Brought her along as part of the onboarding process.
00:17:06She'll be shadowing this meeting.
00:17:08If I had known you hire such magnificent specimens at your agency, Rhodes,
00:17:14I'd have given you the deal right then.
00:17:22Well, of course, we would be honored if you would choose us, but...
00:17:26I would hope it's for less superficial reasons, but...
00:17:29I'm assuming you're joking.
00:17:31How about I get us some drinks?
00:17:38Tell you what, Miss, uh, Karen, uh, Carla.
00:17:43Have a nightcap with me later, and the deal is yours.
00:17:49Excuse me?
00:17:50Oh, it's a really good deal, honey.
00:17:52It's just one night.
00:17:54You do want to make your boss proud, don't you?
00:17:58Look, I don't know who the fuck you think you are.
00:18:01And you're probably too drunk to even realize, but I am not that kind of girl, okay?
00:18:05I do play nice with men like you.
00:18:07So why don't you just keep your dirty hands off of me?
00:18:12You let an employee talk to a client like that?
00:18:15Do you own our business or not?
00:18:21Well...
00:18:28Ow!
00:18:30You mean, am I going to let a client talk to an employee like that?
00:18:33And the answer's no!
00:18:35You punched me. You punched me!
00:18:38Do you know who I am, boy?
00:18:40I do now.
00:18:42Let's go.
00:18:57Oh my god.
00:19:06Holy shit.
00:19:14How to dust.
00:19:23Okay, well, I don't have whatever that is.
00:19:28Oh.
00:19:37Shit!
00:19:41Okay.
00:19:43What are you doing in my...
00:19:47Oh my god.
00:19:48What did you do?
00:19:50It was an accident. I barely touched it. It just fell.
00:19:53You ruined the only thing I have left of my friend.
00:19:56The only thing I have left of my first dog?
00:19:58On accident?
00:20:00Oh my god.
00:20:01I am so sorry.
00:20:03I'm going to sweep it up.
00:20:04No.
00:20:05No!
00:20:06Get out.
00:20:07Get out!
00:20:12Get out!
00:20:14Wait, you can't kick me out. This is my apartment too.
00:20:17I'll make sure you get the deposit back. Leave!
00:20:22Wait, I don't have my phone or wallet or anything, Andy.
00:20:25Look, I can't go anywhere.
00:20:28Andy!
00:20:36I'm sorry, little guy.
00:20:40No more roommates.
00:20:55Was she trying to clean my room?
00:21:12Corinne!
00:21:25Okay.
00:21:36Okay, I guess this will do.
00:21:50Wow, I wonder what happened to her.
00:21:52Sleeping in the office in pajamas?
00:21:54It's a first.
00:21:55Do you think she got kicked out of her apartment by her boyfriend?
00:22:00I guess it's morning already.
00:22:03Nice pajamas.
00:22:07Leave me alone.
00:22:12Corinne.
00:22:13Can I see you in my office, please?
00:22:23Go home and change.
00:22:27I thought you evicted me.
00:22:29Half of the office has already seen you like this.
00:22:31Don't you want to change?
00:22:53I'm sorry.
00:23:11This is not a good idea.
00:23:13It's just not there yet.
00:23:15Have you guys seen Corinne yet?
00:23:17You mean since this morning?
00:23:19No.
00:23:22How unprofessional.
00:23:29Corinne!
00:23:32Corinne?
00:23:48Corinne?
00:23:49Corinne.
00:23:50Hey, are you okay?
00:23:52I'm fine.
00:24:09Corinne.
00:24:13You're burning up.
00:24:15Why?
00:24:16No, you have a fever.
00:24:18Stay here, I'll get some medicine.
00:24:22Okay.
00:24:27Hey.
00:24:28Come on, take this.
00:24:31Come on.
00:24:39I'll let you sleep.
00:24:42I'm sorry.
00:24:43Just let me stay.
00:24:53I'm sorry.
00:25:12Why am I naked?
00:25:14So, um...
00:25:16Relax.
00:25:18I am familiar with the human body.
00:25:20I even have one of my own.
00:25:22But you want me to take this off so that we're even?
00:25:26Yeah, no, I've seen enough of you.
00:25:28Thank you very much.
00:25:30Let's just pretend that this never happened, alright?
00:25:35Okay.
00:25:36Thank you very much.
00:25:37Let's just pretend that this never happened, alright?
00:25:42Okay.
00:25:43Are you feeling better?
00:25:44I think so.
00:25:46But I'm starving.
00:25:48There's muffins on the counter.
00:25:56You got muffins.
00:25:58They were a gift from a client.
00:26:00Don't eat them all.
00:26:02Uh-huh.
00:26:07Who the hell are you?
00:26:09Who the hell are you?
00:26:11What are you doing in Andy's apartment?
00:26:12Are you the maid or something?
00:26:15Excuse you, I live here.
00:26:16And you haven't explained who you are yet.
00:26:19I'm Betty, Andy's fiancé.
00:26:25I'm Betty, Andy's fiancé.
00:26:27Uh, not my fiancé.
00:26:29Betty, just because our parents shook hands on it before we were born
00:26:32doesn't make it real.
00:26:33Now please, stop stalking me.
00:26:35Well, I wouldn't have to stalk you if you hadn't ghosted me.
00:26:38Oh damn, this apartment's even dingier than the last one.
00:26:42You ghosted her?
00:26:43Oh, that is so bad.
00:26:47You know, would you have preferred that I file a restraining order?
00:26:49Ooh, that is really bad too.
00:26:52Girl, I would just gut it now.
00:26:54Oh, you'd love that, wouldn't you?
00:26:56Oh, what, do you think you were his girlfriend or something?
00:26:59Well, actually, yes.
00:27:01What?
00:27:02Yes.
00:27:03And we are very happy.
00:27:08Well, I guess this apartment came with more than one downgrade.
00:27:10Excuse you.
00:27:11Come on, Andy.
00:27:13Stop playing hard to get.
00:27:14You know we belong together.
00:27:16No.
00:27:17Now leave before I call the police.
00:27:18No, no, no, no, no.
00:27:19You're not serious.
00:27:20You're kidding me.
00:27:21No.
00:27:22Now leave before I call the police.
00:27:23You're not serious.
00:27:24No, no, no, no, no.
00:27:25You're kidding me.
00:27:26No.
00:27:30I knew it was weird for the owner of an advertising agency to be in this apartment.
00:27:34How many girls are going to knock on our door, Andy?
00:27:41How many girls are going to be knocking on our door, Andy?
00:27:44Shut up.
00:27:45And it's none of your business.
00:27:47My big shot roommate is a playboy with a trail of broken hearts.
00:27:52How lucky am I for the free entertainment?
00:28:01Mrs. Rhodes.
00:28:03It's a pleasure to have you here at Turntide.
00:28:07Who's your guest?
00:28:08Oh, Andrew.
00:28:09This is Mr. Carlton.
00:28:11Of the Carlton Group.
00:28:12The one and only.
00:28:16Mr. Carlton, would you mind if I had a word with Mrs. Rhodes?
00:28:19Melissa here will show you upstairs.
00:28:22Okay.
00:28:27What?
00:28:28Did I do something wrong?
00:28:29Why are you here?
00:28:30Again?
00:28:31To bring you another outstanding opportunity.
00:28:35Andy, Mr. Carlton can improve your standing immensely.
00:28:39Come on now.
00:28:40Mom, I have told you a million times.
00:28:42I want to make a name for myself.
00:28:45Stop meddling in my business.
00:28:47No.
00:28:48You know what?
00:28:49You are going to hear him out.
00:28:50Now let's not keep him waiting.
00:28:51Come on now.
00:29:06What are you looking for?
00:29:08I can't seem to find the file on the Braxton Project.
00:29:12You know, I think Andy took that into his office.
00:29:14Oh.
00:29:16Oh.
00:29:19Somebody is not going to trust me.
00:29:27Okay.
00:29:28This looks super cool.
00:29:37Dad?
00:29:39Not for now, but we are looking to expand in the next quarter.
00:29:43Please.
00:29:46So, what brings you here today?
00:29:48The Carlton Group.
00:29:49We are very interested in acquiring...
00:29:58Excuse me?
00:30:00Sorry.
00:30:02I stubbed my toe.
00:30:04Please, continue.
00:30:05Well, like I was saying, I'm interested in acquiring TTM.
00:30:10I'm flattered, Mr. Carlton, but we're not looking to be bought anytime soon.
00:30:16I'm very proud of how far we've come as an independent startup,
00:30:19and I have plans to grow it further on my own.
00:30:21I think it's a brilliant idea.
00:30:23I mean, joining with the Carlton Group would give Turntide
00:30:26the much-needed stability in this very competitive industry.
00:30:31Our identity as a young, contemporary brand distinguishes us in the marketplace.
00:30:36I'm not so sure that Turntide would mesh well with the Carlton Group's long-standing traditions.
00:30:42Well, you would have to create a new identity, of course.
00:30:45I mean, you're an ad agency. That's your job, right?
00:30:48Your younger generation just doesn't appreciate the value of an established brand.
00:30:55And do you really want to go into competition with us?
00:30:58Mr. Rhodes, I think this is an opportunity of a lifetime.
00:31:03Thank you for the offer, Mr. Carlton.
00:31:05But I have to kindly refuse.
00:31:07Oh, Ed, you know how this generation is.
00:31:10Always changing their mind and so stubborn.
00:31:14But, you know, they always do come around.
00:31:19You have daughters, don't you?
00:31:21What is it?
00:31:22Chloe and Karen, isn't it?
00:31:25I only have one daughter.
00:31:27Chloe.
00:31:35I only have one daughter, Chloe.
00:31:38Now you have a big pitch coming up with the Goldfield Beer Group next week.
00:31:45We're also bidding on that deal.
00:31:47You want to make a bet to see who wins?
00:31:49How do you know about that?
00:31:51That was supposed to be a private pitch.
00:31:53I'm a Carlton, and I have eyes everywhere.
00:31:56If you win the Carlton deal, I will hand you three of my hand-picked most valuable clients.
00:32:05But if I win, you sell me your company.
00:32:11All right.
00:32:15Deal.
00:32:16All right.
00:32:17Bam!
00:32:18I look forward to acquiring your company.
00:32:21Oh!
00:32:31Oh, my God.
00:32:32So sorry for the interruption.
00:32:38Well, I will see you later.
00:32:39No, no, no.
00:32:40What were you doing under my desk and in my office?
00:32:43I was just looking for a file, and I thought it would be in here.
00:32:46And then I heard you coming, and it just felt like the best idea.
00:32:50You sure it doesn't have anything to do with Ed Carlton?
00:32:55Well, look, I may or may not have hit him with my bike three years ago,
00:32:59and I thought he was going to recognize me.
00:33:01Okay, well, that's actually really funny, but I'm not really in a laughing mood.
00:33:05You heard everything that just happened.
00:33:07You're making the right choice.
00:33:09I know it's risky, but this could be your only shot to save turn time.
00:33:13This could be your only shot to save turn time.
00:33:18If you need any help, let me know.
00:33:25You deserve it.
00:33:27I do.
00:33:31Walk of shame?
00:33:33Hey, man.
00:33:42Hey, congrats, man.
00:33:44On what?
00:33:46She's a 10 for sure.
00:33:48Don't blame you one bit for taking a bite of new hire.
00:33:52If you think I hired Corinne for anything other than her skill set,
00:33:55maybe you should go find somewhere else to work.
00:33:57All right.
00:33:58Damn, man.
00:34:00Don't forget I said anything.
00:34:10Yeah, we can definitely do that.
00:34:12No, not a problem. We should be able to have it to you by tomorrow.
00:34:15I think if...
00:34:17Let me call you back.
00:34:19Bob.
00:34:20Vince.
00:34:21To what do I owe the pleasure?
00:34:23Your mother would like you at a fitting for your wedding suit.
00:34:26We're here to escort you.
00:34:28Well, that's not going to happen.
00:34:30I have a really busy schedule today.
00:34:32And also, I'm not getting married.
00:34:34Well, your mother is very insistent, Mr. Rhodes.
00:34:37Very.
00:34:38Did my dad send this?
00:34:40Well, I'm just...
00:34:43Guys.
00:34:44Hey, let him go!
00:34:45Corinne, let me just...
00:34:46Whoa, whoa!
00:34:53You didn't need to do that.
00:34:54I have been seeing these creeps around, okay?
00:34:56To be safe, get pepper spray.
00:34:57Yeah, I'll look into that.
00:34:58Oh, I think you got some on my shirt.
00:35:00Oh, it's fine. I'll do laundry.
00:35:03Now?
00:35:04I can do laundry.
00:35:06I think.
00:35:27Oh!
00:35:46Oh, it burns. It burns. It burns.
00:35:50Oh, I'm not allowed to eat.
00:35:51Oh!
00:35:54Ow!
00:35:58Ow!
00:36:05The other nail.
00:36:07Oh.
00:36:10This one.
00:36:15Come on.
00:36:24No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:36:28Spoon?
00:36:29Microwave.
00:36:30No.
00:36:31No.
00:36:34Here.
00:36:41Okay, whatever my parents were paying the maids, they need to double it.
00:36:48Wax or oil?
00:36:58Close enough.
00:37:08Hey!
00:37:10Did you cook?
00:37:12Yeah.
00:37:13And I used your recipe.
00:37:15Oh, and the best part is...
00:37:21I cleaned the floors!
00:37:23You what?
00:37:25I just wanted to say thank you for all of your help and, you know, getting me a job.
00:37:29And it's Saturday.
00:37:31So I cleaned the floors.
00:37:34Looks great in here.
00:37:35And it smells great, too.
00:37:38Yeah, well, get over here before it gets cold.
00:37:45What the hell did you clean the floors with?
00:37:47Soap.
00:37:49Oh, and then I polished them with oil.
00:37:52Olive oil.
00:37:54I'm assuming that's not the right kind of oil?
00:37:56No.
00:37:57Not the right kind of oil.
00:37:59We are going to walk very, very slowly to the towel closet.
00:38:03Yeah?
00:38:08Okay, I have to go.
00:38:09Come on, right here.
00:38:11Okay, well, move your foot.
00:38:12Oh, okay.
00:38:13I can't...
00:38:14Wait!
00:38:21Oh, my God.
00:38:23Are you okay?
00:38:30It smells good.
00:38:31It smells so good.
00:38:32It smells so good.
00:38:33It smells really great.
00:38:37I should...
00:38:38Brussels sprouts.
00:38:39Yeah, I'll go get the...
00:38:40Yeah.
00:38:41Yeah.
00:38:42Yeah, you do that.
00:38:43Okay.
00:38:44Oh, my God.
00:38:45Oh, my God.
00:38:46Oh, my God.
00:38:47Oh, my God.
00:38:48Oh, my God.
00:38:49Yeah.
00:38:50Yeah, you do that.
00:38:51Okay.
00:38:56Okay, new house rule.
00:38:58No more chores without supervision.
00:39:00Hey, dinner was edible.
00:39:08You need a hand over there?
00:39:10No.
00:39:12I'm all powerful.
00:39:14Yeah, the bruise on my ass would say otherwise, but...
00:39:17Sure.
00:39:19I am really, really sorry about that.
00:39:21There's...
00:39:22There's a lot I need to learn.
00:39:24Yeah.
00:39:25There's a lot that you do know.
00:39:27Yeah.
00:39:28Like how to escape a wedding.
00:39:30I saw those heels.
00:39:31That could not have been easy.
00:39:41Okay.
00:39:42If you could be any animal, which one would you be?
00:39:45I'd be like a spider monkey.
00:39:47Ooh.
00:39:48Okay, so which ones go?
00:39:49Jump?
00:39:50I don't know.
00:39:51X?
00:39:52Come on.
00:39:53X.
00:39:55You know, my mom taught my sister and I how to have perfect posture and impeccable taste.
00:40:01Actually.
00:40:03But...
00:40:06She didn't teach us anything useful.
00:40:08Like how to cook, or clean, or live independently.
00:40:12I mean, I never really liked those lessons anyway.
00:40:15I was always just questioning everything.
00:40:17My sister was really good at it, though.
00:40:19And then at some point, they just stopped trying.
00:40:23So you have a sister?
00:40:24Yeah.
00:40:25Older.
00:40:27Chloe.
00:40:29She is the definition of golden child.
00:40:34Brilliant, beautiful, and most importantly, obedient.
00:40:38Yeah, in my parents' eyes, I was always the disappointing, troublemaking, younger sister
00:40:44who was only really good for one thing.
00:40:48Marriage.
00:40:51And hopefully to a guy who would just shut me up for good.
00:40:54I see.
00:40:55I see.
00:40:57Arranged marriage.
00:40:59You don't really seem that surprised.
00:41:02Yeah, it happened to a friend of mine.
00:41:07Yeah.
00:41:09I only met him like once before the wedding.
00:41:12So weird.
00:41:14Well, you know what? I'm glad you ran away.
00:41:17Fuck him.
00:41:21Yeah?
00:41:22Yeah.
00:41:24Okay, well, I haven't really brought much peace into your life.
00:41:27I'm not good at everything like my sister, okay?
00:41:30I don't pick up on things easily.
00:41:32You're smart, Corinne.
00:41:34Scary smart, sometimes.
00:41:37And I think that you just need to show them that you can live just as good of a life—
00:41:41No, you know what? Hell, better.
00:41:44On your own terms.
00:41:46And you're not alone.
00:41:49Why are you looking at me like that?
00:41:51No, I'm sorry. I just—
00:41:54I just really want to kiss you.
00:42:19No, no, no.
00:42:24Why?
00:42:27There better be something in your pocket.
00:42:29Ugh, what are you imagining?
00:42:31Oh, God.
00:42:32No!
00:42:36Uh, we should—
00:42:38Yeah, yeah.
00:42:39Do anything else. Okay.
00:42:41Okay, yeah.
00:42:42Okay.
00:42:43Okay, yep.
00:42:45Was I snoring?
00:42:46You know, I'm gonna get some water. I'm gonna get some water.
00:42:48Okay.
00:42:50This apartment is depressing, you know that?
00:42:55The only thing you own is action figures and video games.
00:42:57That is the definition of delinquency.
00:43:02Excuse me?
00:43:03Look, we've lived in this apartment long enough, okay?
00:43:05Where's the decor? The books?
00:43:09The books?
00:43:10I don't read books. It's the 21st century. Who owns books?
00:43:13Every sensible adult in the world?
00:43:16Well, I, uh, didn't take you for a nerd, Corey.
00:43:19Okay, this is unacceptable. You need to read, Andy.
00:43:22How can you be the founder of a media company if you don't read?
00:43:27I listen to podcasts.
00:43:28Gross.
00:43:30I gotta go run some errands. I'll be home later.
00:43:33Okay, you can just do whatever you want.
00:43:35Unless you're asking me for permission. In that case, no.
00:43:44Did you forget your keys again?
00:43:53John?
00:43:59John?
00:44:02So this is where you're spending your little vacation?
00:44:04No, um, this is my home.
00:44:09Home? That's very funny.
00:44:11This is merely a months-long tantrum befitting of a brat who is ungrateful as you.
00:44:19Well, I like it.
00:44:20When are you coming back?
00:44:21James did not like that stunt you pulled.
00:44:24And you embarrassed us all.
00:44:26And you almost cost us our connection with the Prescott's.
00:44:29Luckily, James and his parents are willing to forgive.
00:44:34How did you find me?
00:44:35Oh, please.
00:44:36I hired a private investigator when you ran.
00:44:39I've known about this place for weeks.
00:44:41You cut me off completely just so you could secretly watch me suffer?
00:44:45No.
00:44:46This is my life now, okay?
00:44:48I have worked for it. Just leave me alone.
00:44:51Cutting you off was your punishment.
00:44:53It was to teach you a lesson, but apparently, I guess it didn't.
00:44:56You are a Carl, too.
00:44:58Act like it.
00:44:59Your sister is nearly ready to take over as the CEO of our company.
00:45:04While you are wasting our name.
00:45:08The least that you can do is accept your place as a dutiful wife.
00:45:13I am not some complacent little prize for your business partners.
00:45:18You know what?
00:45:19My boyfriend is coming home soon and he really doesn't like it when I'm upset.
00:45:24Boyfriend?
00:45:25What boyfriend?
00:45:27What boyfriend?
00:45:28Well, his name is Andy.
00:45:30And if you don't know about him, maybe you should get a new private investigator.
00:45:34Now get out!
00:45:36I regret this little girl.
00:45:58Andy?
00:45:59Andy?
00:46:00What are you doing here?
00:46:03I pass by this place every day.
00:46:05I just thought I'd stop in and see what all the hubbub's about.
00:46:10Aww, did my comment get to you? We thought it was so sweet.
00:46:14No.
00:46:15No, I'm not buying anything.
00:46:20Oh.
00:46:21I am.
00:46:22Hold this.
00:46:26Classic.
00:46:29Little women?
00:46:30Mm-hmm.
00:46:31Are they like Tinkerbell?
00:46:33They are full-sized.
00:46:35You two are building quite the library there.
00:46:40You two are building quite the library there.
00:46:42Oh, we were just getting started.
00:46:44No kidding.
00:46:45Well, we just got a very special shipment in.
00:46:48A rare first edition of The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson by Thomas H. Johnson.
00:46:53Which is widely regarded as the authoritative collection of her work.
00:46:56And only for $200.
00:46:58It's an opportunity you can't miss if you're a true collector.
00:47:02Ma'am, Johnson's Complete Emily Dickinson may be her first full collection of her work,
00:47:08but it is far from authoritative.
00:47:11I mean, Miller's has been regarded as the leading version among scholars for, well, years.
00:47:15And if I wanted to get a first edition Johnson, I could easily get it for $80.
00:47:19So before you sell me an outdated and overpriced book,
00:47:21maybe you should just think about whether or not I'm an idiot.
00:47:25Well then.
00:47:30So, you can't do chores, but you're a literature expert.
00:47:37This one is my favorite!
00:47:40I've never heard of it.
00:47:42Oh, it is so juicy.
00:47:44High society affairs, unrequited love, plot twists.
00:47:49Oh, it is such a fun time.
00:47:52We have so many.
00:47:54Maybe next time.
00:48:17Could you help me send a postcard?
00:48:19A postcard?
00:48:21Uh, who's this?
00:48:23This. He. Is.
00:48:25James Prescott.
00:48:27Corinne's fiancé.
00:48:29And you are?
00:48:31Andy Rhodes.
00:48:33You have a fiancé?
00:48:35Okay. You are not my fiancé, James.
00:48:37And just quit telling people that.
00:48:39Just because you left me at the altar doesn't mean we won't get married eventually.
00:48:43Oh, you're that guy.
00:48:45Man, you know, you really can't take no for an answer.
00:48:49Stay out of this.
00:48:51This is between me and her.
00:48:53She can make her own decisions.
00:48:55In fact, you know, why don't we ask her, Corinne?
00:48:57Did you change your mind?
00:48:59No. I didn't.
00:49:02Well, there you have it.
00:49:04No means no.
00:49:06And she's here with me, so you can go on about your day.
00:49:11And she's here with me, so you can go on about your day.
00:49:14Okay, look, man. I don't know what you think.
00:49:16James, we are in public.
00:49:18James, I don't even know you, okay?
00:49:20This was all of our parents' idea, and I'm sure there is a lovely girl out there for you who is not me.
00:49:25There you go.
00:49:27Bye-bye now.
00:49:29Look, I don't know who this punk thinks he is, but this isn't over.
00:49:33I wonder what your father has to say about this.
00:49:40His hair is really shiny.
00:49:43Did you get oat in my coffee?
00:49:49I'll get us.
00:49:55Oh my goodness!
00:49:57I missed you so much.
00:49:59Ditto. Carlton just isn't the same without you.
00:50:01No.
00:50:03So, this is the new place, huh?
00:50:05Yeah, Turntide Media.
00:50:07Oh my god, let me give you a tour.
00:50:09Yes.
00:50:11Ooh.
00:50:16It's a storm cloud.
00:50:18Yeah, remember when I said I had a roommate?
00:50:20And now he's also my boss.
00:50:24But he's not normally like that. I wonder what happened.
00:50:26I think I might know.
00:50:29Someone published an expose on Turntide Media.
00:50:32It's all over the news.
00:50:37Oh no.
00:50:39That's really bad.
00:50:40Yeah, I better go. But dinner soon?
00:50:42Okay, yes, please.
00:50:44Good luck.
00:50:46Thanks.
00:50:51That's a good start to the morning.
00:50:53I'm literally sick to my stomach right now.
00:50:59What's going on?
00:51:01Didn't you hear?
00:51:03We're the new poster child for unethical advertising.
00:51:05Apparently there was a recall on the first product deal Andy ever did as CEO.
00:51:09Oh shit.
00:51:10And the worst part, the Carleton group boosted the article immediately and said,
00:51:14this is what happens when you let a bunch of money-hungry Gen Zers run an ad agency.
00:51:19They gotta be behind it.
00:51:20Didn't Ed Carleton just visit the office a week ago?
00:51:22Yeah.
00:51:24Can I see you all in the conference room?
00:51:26No.
00:51:28Okay.
00:51:30What's gonna happen?
00:51:33As some of you may know, malicious headlines have been circling around Turntide.
00:51:39Most of the report is false, but we do have some evidence of an internal data leak.
00:51:44We have a mole?
00:51:49We have a mole?
00:51:51Too soon to say, but I will get to the bottom of this.
00:51:54Well, if you ask me, everything was fine until a certain someone was hired.
00:52:00I guess the tabloids aren't the only one throwing around baseless accusations.
00:52:04I'm just putting together two and two.
00:52:06We didn't have a leak before you were hired?
00:52:08Enough.
00:52:09I didn't call this meeting so that people could point fingers at one another.
00:52:12The Goldfield pitch is coming up, and it is our top priority to secure this deal.
00:52:16If we can win them over, who knows, maybe we can regain the trust of some of our other clients.
00:52:20This pitch is life or death for Turntide.
00:52:23So I'm gonna be presenting it.
00:52:30So, mind you, he's fully naked when he drags me into the shower to show me his waterbending skills.
00:52:36But it was just water dripping down his fingers.
00:52:40Yeah, I was five.
00:52:41You know, I recall having to call 911 to, uh, rescue you from a tree
00:52:47after your failed experiment with flying using helium balloons.
00:52:51I was levitating off the ground for a little bit.
00:52:55You know, that's considered flying.
00:52:57He was.
00:53:10Shall we?
00:53:12Wait, Luke, where the hell are you guys going?
00:53:15You enjoy your night, bro.
00:53:21What the hell is happening?
00:53:24Okay, you really have to learn how to read a room.
00:53:26Their eyes have been glued to each other all night.
00:53:29Oh.
00:53:32Good for them.
00:53:36You're cute.
00:53:38Come on, waterbender.
00:53:40Let's go home.
00:53:48Well, I for one think Andy and Corrine would be great together.
00:53:52And not just because Andy introduced me to his best friend.
00:53:57Kiss me.
00:54:01Yeah, I'm really rooting for him, too.
00:54:03Just glad Corrine's doing well.
00:54:04She's been through so much in such a short time.
00:54:09What, Andy didn't tell you?
00:54:14What, Andy didn't tell you?
00:54:15She got disowned by her rich family.
00:54:17They're apparently a big deal.
00:54:19They wanted her to marry some big shot, but she didn't love him.
00:54:23She's never been on her own before, so she had to learn from scratch.
00:54:27Oh, wow.
00:54:29I had no idea.
00:54:35It's pretty funny, then, how she met Andy.
00:54:39Like, it's ironic that she ran away from one rich guy straight into the arms of another.
00:54:44Her family would be thrilled if they ever took their heads out of their asses.
00:54:50Wait, Andy is rich?
00:54:54Yeah.
00:54:57Haven't you heard of the Rhodes family?
00:55:01Oh, my God.
00:55:02Rhodes Hotels?
00:55:03I never even put it together.
00:55:04Yeah, he went out on his own a couple years ago.
00:55:07He wanted to make a name for himself, pave his own way aside from his family.
00:55:13But you and Corrine don't know anything about Andy.
00:55:16And you and Andy don't know about Corrine.
00:55:20Holy shit!
00:55:24Hey, girl.
00:55:26Okay, tell me everything.
00:55:32Baskin in the afterglow?
00:55:35I don't kiss and tell.
00:55:36It was amazing.
00:55:37Ten out of ten.
00:55:38But before I give you details, there's something way more urgent I have to tell you.
00:55:42You're never going to guess what I heard last night.
00:55:44Uh, but, uh, you got a sec?
00:55:46Uh, yeah, sure.
00:55:48I could take a break.
00:55:50Okay, what?
00:55:51What is more important than your sex life?
00:55:53I heard one of the craziest things from Monica last night.
00:55:56Did you know Corrine comes from one of the wealthiest families in the country?
00:56:00What did you say?
00:56:02Corrine.
00:56:03Andy comes from a rich family.
00:56:05Rhodes Hotels.
00:56:06What?
00:56:07Yeah.
00:56:08Dude, Corrine is, or was, I guess, a Carlton.
00:56:12Why would she hide that?
00:56:14I don't know what to say.
00:56:16Why would she hide that?
00:56:17I don't know what to say.
00:56:34You're a Carlton.
00:56:40You're a Carlton.
00:56:41Yes.
00:56:42I am the Carlton's youngest daughter.
00:56:44Not that they would acknowledge it.
00:56:45You're a Carlton.
00:56:46The same corporation that's been trying to buy me out and bad mouth me in the press.
00:56:50Are you the fucking mole?
00:56:51Is that why you showed up in this apartment in the first place?
00:56:54Do you really think that I would do that to you?
00:56:56After everything we've been through.
00:56:58You know me, Andy.
00:56:59You know that I have no loyalty to my family.
00:57:02I don't know what to believe.
00:57:04Why didn't you tell me that you come from a rich family too?
00:57:06Sorry, how is that relevant right now?
00:57:08How is that relevant?
00:57:10You're accusing me of lying about my family yet you did the exact same thing?
00:57:14At least I have an excuse.
00:57:16What's yours?
00:57:17Were you cut off from your family too?
00:57:18No.
00:57:19No, I wasn't.
00:57:20Okay, well then why are you here?
00:57:22You don't even need to live a normal life.
00:57:24What are you just pretending for fun?
00:57:26I am not here for fun.
00:57:27I went out on my own to prove myself.
00:57:29Everybody just expected me to join the family business.
00:57:31But I needed to make my own way in the world.
00:57:34Okay, well then why didn't you just tell me that, okay?
00:57:36Why don't you trust me?
00:57:37I didn't tell you because I thought that you could be a...
00:57:39Could be what?
00:57:40I thought that you could be after my money.
00:57:44I thought that you could be after my money.
00:57:48Okay, look, if that came out...
00:57:49Yeah, it fucking did.
00:57:51First I'm a traitor and now I'm a gold digger.
00:57:53You know what? You are just a real class act, Andy.
00:57:55Oh, stop deflecting.
00:57:57You heard that from Mr. Colton that while you were snooping around in my office, no less,
00:58:01and you didn't say anything, I have every right to be angry.
00:58:04I chose freedom.
00:58:07And I lost everything because of it.
00:58:10Do you really think that I would turn around and just betray you like that?
00:58:16I opened up to you about everything and you just turn around and throw it in my face.
00:58:22I even told you that my parents were for my sister over me.
00:58:25And you know how important it is for me to be treated as an equal and yet you still don't do it.
00:58:29When? When have I not treated you as an equal?
00:58:32You suspect your equal of ulterior motives.
00:58:34So much so that you would accuse her of being the mole.
00:58:39After living with her for weeks.
00:58:41You know what? It doesn't matter.
00:58:43I saw the door camera footage.
00:58:45And Colton was standing right here in this apartment.
00:58:47Did you feed him information then?
00:58:55He was just trying to get me to come back.
00:58:57I have seen you lie, Corinne.
00:59:00It comes as easily to you as breathing.
00:59:02Ever since you showed up in this apartment, you have caused me nothing but trouble.
00:59:05And I swear, if you're the reason that my agency is in jeopardy, I...
00:59:11That sounds like you already think I'm guilty.
00:59:15So be it.
00:59:27Oh, honey.
00:59:28I'll get the ice cream.
00:59:30Okay.
00:59:36Enjoy.
00:59:37Hi, welcome.
00:59:42Corinne.
00:59:46Why did you ask me here, James?
00:59:48Cutting right to the chase.
00:59:50Okay.
00:59:51Well, you see, I haven't quite given up on our future nuptials.
00:59:56Wait.
00:59:57You're going to want to hear what I have to say.
00:59:59Please.
01:00:00What could you possibly say to convince me to go along with this arrangement?
01:00:03Your boy toy is in recess, yes.
01:00:05Andy?
01:00:07I know.
01:00:08He's part of the Rhodes family.
01:00:10Big whoop.
01:00:11Not that, Corinne.
01:00:13He's engaged to this woman.
01:00:16Betty Kenden.
01:00:1825.
01:00:19She's a childhood sweetheart of his.
01:00:21No, no, no.
01:00:22I met her.
01:00:23She's crazy.
01:00:24They've been engaged to be married since childhood.
01:00:27My source is correct, which, trust me, it is.
01:00:30The wedding is set for May.
01:00:32Well, you're wrong.
01:00:33Who's your source?
01:00:51Okay, you know what?
01:00:52You still haven't said what that has to do with you and I.
01:00:54So just get to the point.
01:00:55The point is, Corinne, I know you love him.
01:00:59But you can't have him.
01:01:00He belongs to Miss Camden.
01:01:02This past month, with all of it, it's been vague.
01:01:05A dream.
01:01:06Fuck you.
01:01:07What I can offer you is real.
01:01:09Yeah, what's that?
01:01:11Security.
01:01:12A home.
01:01:13Assurance that what you have won't disappear in an instant.
01:01:15You will be taken care of.
01:01:16Forever.
01:01:17You will never have to worry or doubt ever again.
01:01:20Take some time.
01:01:22Think about it.
01:01:24I'll be waiting.
01:01:28Do you remember, Andy, how her Easter dress got so muddy
01:01:32that your parents had to cancel the press shoot?
01:01:35That was such a fun day, despite the looks on their faces.
01:01:39Oh, gosh.
01:01:40You know, you two made such a couple then.
01:01:43And now.
01:01:48Excuse me, I need to use the restroom.
01:01:51Mmm.
01:01:53This place is just so lovely, isn't it?
01:01:56Sorry, I just need to send a quick message.
01:01:59No problem, dear.
01:02:11Such a lovely evening, isn't it?
01:02:13Yes.
01:02:16There he is.
01:02:21Fuck.
01:02:29Fuck this.
01:02:33Excuse me.
01:02:39Is he taunting me?
01:02:40Is this psychological warfare?
01:02:43You know what, James is right.
01:02:44I really need to get myself out of this mess.
01:02:48Corinne!
01:02:50What a coincidence.
01:02:52I was just having dinner with Andy and his mother.
01:02:55Would you like to join?
01:02:57Are you the one who texted me off of Andy's phone?
01:03:00Oh.
01:03:01Did you really think Andy wanted to talk things over in makeup?
01:03:04How sad.
01:03:14Hello there.
01:03:15Hello there.
01:03:16Didn't expect to hear from you so soon.
01:03:18You're right.
01:03:20Imagine that.
01:03:21What will you do?
01:03:27You know what?
01:03:28I would like to propose a toast.
01:03:30To turntide.
01:03:31And all the success that you've had, Andy.
01:03:34I am so proud of you.
01:03:37Cheers.
01:03:40Thanks, Mom.
01:03:41That means a lot.
01:03:42But I didn't propose this dinner to discuss work.
01:03:47I brought you here because we need to put this matter to bed.
01:03:50What's the matter?
01:03:52Betty and I's engagement.
01:03:54Listen, Mom.
01:03:55I know you and the Camden's have wanted this for my entire life.
01:03:58But just because you're telling people it's going to happen doesn't make it true.
01:04:01I'm a grown man now.
01:04:02I need to make my own decisions.
01:04:05Andy.
01:04:07You know what?
01:04:08I'm tired of this.
01:04:09I have been nothing but patient and understanding for years.
01:04:12And all you do is reject me.
01:04:14I've been waiting for you my whole life.
01:04:17What does she have that I don't?
01:04:19Who is she?
01:04:21She is the woman Andy is living with.
01:04:24Andy, is that true?
01:04:27She's just a roommate.
01:04:28And her name is Corinne.
01:04:30Betty, I can't marry you.
01:04:31And it's not because of her.
01:04:32It wouldn't be right.
01:04:34I'm sorry.
01:04:36Fix it.
01:04:37I'm going to call my parents.
01:04:40Andy.
01:04:42Just because you have a startup does not mean that you have life figured out.
01:04:47First you turned down the Carlton's.
01:04:49And now the Camden's.
01:04:50God.
01:04:52What are you doing?
01:04:53Are you trying to run your career into the ground, Andy?
01:04:57Partnerships shouldn't be bought.
01:04:59They should be earned.
01:05:01And I want to marry somebody I love.
01:05:02Not somebody that I see business value in.
01:05:04You have known Betty your entire life.
01:05:06And our family approves of her.
01:05:08And you stand the risk of insulting her family the longer you put off this marriage.
01:05:14Do you understand?
01:05:16If I can't marry somebody that I love, then I'll just walk away from it all.
01:05:19Oh, God.
01:05:21How dare you?
01:05:22Do you really think that I had a choice in who I married?
01:05:26Do you want the same for your child?
01:05:29You are young.
01:05:30And I know what's best for you.
01:05:32And this is not over.
01:05:34And you will figure it out.
01:05:39What?
01:05:47Are you leaving?
01:05:49Yes.
01:05:51You could just keep the rest of my stuff or throw it away.
01:05:54I don't really care anymore.
01:05:55Is this about the other night?
01:05:57I mean, can you blame me for suspecting you?
01:05:58Do you know what's really ironic?
01:06:00You accused me of being this big mastermind and saying all this bullshit about me.
01:06:05Yet you are the one with the biggest secret of all.
01:06:07What the hell are you talking about?
01:06:09Enjoy married life.
01:06:13Oh, what? Cat got your tongue now?
01:06:16You know, I should have known that you were a player from the very beginning.
01:06:20Why are you even mad?
01:06:21We're just roommates.
01:06:24What does it matter to you?
01:06:26Just roommates.
01:06:28You know, that's low even for you, Andy.
01:06:30What?
01:06:31We had moments.
01:06:32The flirting.
01:06:33Oh, we shared a kiss, for God's sake.
01:06:34Does none of that mean anything to you?
01:06:36We were drinking.
01:06:38Right.
01:06:39Got it.
01:06:41Where are you going?
01:06:42None of your business.
01:06:43Oh, you're going back to them, aren't you?
01:06:45To James?
01:06:46And I'm supposed to believe you're innocent now?
01:06:48I always was.
01:06:49If that's the case, then you're a coward.
01:06:51What?
01:06:52After all of the progress you've made, the life that you've built for yourself through blood, sweat and tears,
01:06:56you're just going to give it all away?
01:06:58Take the easy way out?
01:06:59You're better than that, Corinne.
01:07:01What does it matter to you?
01:07:03We're just roommates, remember?
01:07:06Well, not anymore!
01:07:16Hmm, look who decided to show up.
01:07:18You look tired.
01:07:20I'm here.
01:07:33Mr. Fincher, Mr. Thompson, it's an honor to have you here today.
01:07:36We will be presenting our pitch for Goldfield Beer as a team.
01:07:41Here at Turntide, we aim to pinpoint the core that makes a product attractive to consumers
01:07:46and then elevate it into the public consciousness.
01:07:49Through meticulous research, we have found that the two words most commonly associated with Goldfield
01:07:55is summer and taste.
01:07:58Now, accompanied with visual and auditory cues.
01:08:09And that brings us to the slogan that will transform Goldfield's presence in the market.
01:08:14Goldfield, the taste of summer.
01:08:21Mr. Rhodes, you've certainly put a lot of effort into this.
01:08:26It's an impeccable presentation. Virtually flawless.
01:08:29We can see the quality that comes out of Turntide.
01:08:32That may also be your greatest weakness.
01:08:34On the surface, the ad is perfect.
01:08:36But it doesn't possess anything beyond that.
01:08:39The taste of summer? Come on, what does that even mean?
01:08:42I mean, it's soulless. Basic.
01:08:47And we cannot sign off on this.
01:08:49And we cannot sign off on this.
01:08:52Well, you know, you'd be surprised.
01:08:54As I mentioned, studies show that people are very receptive to summer themes.
01:08:59They produce neural responses akin to nostalgia.
01:09:02Ads like this are almost guaranteed to bring in higher year-end profits.
01:09:06It's a safe bet.
01:09:08We are well aware of the advantage of this type of marketing, Mr. Rhodes.
01:09:12Other beer brands have been using it for decades.
01:09:15Yeah, and we're not other beer brands.
01:09:17I mean, we didn't take the risk of coming to a new up-and-coming ad agency
01:09:21to get a boring, safe pitch.
01:09:25Um, well, you know, I can, uh...
01:09:28We've seen enough from you, Mr. Rhodes.
01:09:31Look, I don't want to have to give an ultimatum,
01:09:33but if you don't give us something impressive right now, we're walking.
01:09:38Please, if you give us one more day, we can put together a plan.
01:09:41We're walking.
01:09:42Please, if you give us one more day,
01:09:44we can put together a presentation that is equally impressive.
01:09:47We don't want another presentation.
01:09:49We want a good idea.
01:09:56Miss...
01:09:57Corinne Carlton.
01:09:58Corinne Carlton?
01:10:00Isn't that, um...
01:10:03What are you doing?
01:10:05I could pitch.
01:10:08I could pitch.
01:10:11Well then, go ahead.
01:10:16I recently had the misfortune of losing almost everything I had.
01:10:19And although it was my choice, it was still really hard.
01:10:23And most people think that when you're struggling,
01:10:26you're focused on the basics.
01:10:28Getting a job.
01:10:29Finding a safe place to live.
01:10:31Affording food and necessities.
01:10:33And surviving.
01:10:35And for the most part, that is...
01:10:37That's true.
01:10:38In the in-between moments,
01:10:40when everything is just hitting you,
01:10:42you're just looking for comfort.
01:10:44Just about everywhere.
01:10:46You're looking for anything and everything
01:10:48that will give you a sense of belonging that you used to have.
01:10:51And in one of those moments, someone gave me a Goldfield beer.
01:10:54I had a really hard time opening it.
01:10:56You know, weak hands.
01:10:58But I couldn't believe how something so simple could mean so much.
01:11:10It was just a beer, but...
01:11:12You know, this may not resonate,
01:11:15but I keep thinking about this quote that Ernest Hemingway wrote.
01:11:18I did not care what it was all about.
01:11:20Life.
01:11:21You know?
01:11:22All I wanted to know was how to live in it.
01:11:24And if I found out how to live in it,
01:11:27then you learned from what it was all about.
01:11:30Goldfield.
01:11:31Live in it.
01:11:33The sun also rises.
01:11:35You'd have no way of knowing this, young lady,
01:11:37but our CEO is very fond of Hemingway.
01:11:40If he were here right now,
01:11:42he'd be over the moon.
01:11:43He'll love the idea of our ad referencing a favorite.
01:11:50Well, I can throw together some mock-ups by the end of the week.
01:11:54Excellent.
01:11:56We look forward to seeing that.
01:11:58Miss Carlton, you have a bright future here.
01:12:02That means a lot.
01:12:04Mr. Thompson, Mr. Fincher, please wait.
01:12:26What more is there to discuss?
01:12:28We made ourselves very clear.
01:12:30I don't know if you know this,
01:12:32but my father is Neil Martin.
01:12:34Okay, and?
01:12:36He's the largest supplier of wheat on the West Coast.
01:12:39A connection with him would be very beneficial for Goldfield.
01:12:43If you go back in there and tell my boss you're turning down Turntide's pitch
01:12:47and going with the Carlton Group,
01:12:49I can make that happen.
01:12:53If you had done any research into our company,
01:12:56Miss Martin, you'd know we produce our own wheat.
01:12:59Goldfield started as a farm.
01:13:01And does Mr. Rhodes know that you're trying to bribe us on behalf of another company?
01:13:08How about, if you do it, I'll give you a night you won't forget?
01:13:13Both of you.
01:13:19Mr. Rhodes, you need to control your people.
01:13:22Never in my entire career have I experienced something so unprofessional.
01:13:26Is this your corporate culture?
01:13:28Absolutely not.
01:13:30And this is no longer an employee of Turntide.
01:13:33My sincerest apologies to both of you.
01:13:35And we will make up for this violation tenfold.
01:13:38If you can come through like your all-star associate promised,
01:13:42maybe we can forget about this.
01:13:51Mr. Rhodes, please.
01:13:52What the fuck were you thinking?
01:13:55I've worked my ass off for this company.
01:13:58I was here when it was nothing.
01:14:00I should have been made a partner ages ago, but you never even considered it.
01:14:03Ed Carlton offered me an executive role just for doing a small favor.
01:14:09So you betrayed us?
01:14:11Put the entire agency in jeopardy.
01:14:13If Corinne hadn't saved us back there...
01:14:15Please!
01:14:16I could have done the same thing.
01:14:18Pack your things.
01:14:19You're fired.
01:14:28You're fired.
01:14:51We don't have to bother.
01:14:58I'm sorry.
01:15:05Not one word, not one gesture of yours shall I, could I, ever forget.
01:15:16You read it.
01:15:17Mr. Carlton.
01:15:18Figured you would show up at some point.
01:15:20Come to hand over your clients to me?
01:15:23Enjoy them while you have them,
01:15:25because I'm sure they'll come crawling back soon.
01:15:28Do you know who won the deal for us?
01:15:30Corinne.
01:15:31Your daughter.
01:15:32Seems like you lost your biggest asset when you cut her off from the family.
01:15:36Corinne?
01:15:38Yes.
01:15:39I'm sorry.
01:15:40I'm sorry.
01:15:41I'm sorry.
01:15:42I'm sorry.
01:15:43I'm sorry.
01:15:44I'm sorry.
01:15:45Corinne?
01:15:47How?
01:15:48I have a deal for you, Ed.
01:15:50What?
01:15:52I will give you back these clients,
01:15:54but you have to give up something else.
01:15:56And that would be?
01:15:58Corinne.
01:15:59Relinquish your control and let her live her own life, on her own terms.
01:16:03Stay out of her life for good.
01:16:09Stay out of her life for good.
01:16:11Deal.
01:16:15Deal.
01:16:23Betty, we need to talk about the wedding.
01:16:29Hey, Melissa, have you seen Andy?
01:16:31I just really need to talk to him.
01:16:33No, he's not in yet.
01:16:34But did you hear what happened?
01:16:36No, what happened?
01:16:37Andy fired Lillia.
01:16:39Apparently she's the Carlton mole.
01:16:42It got really intense, so he sent her hacking.
01:16:45He was epic.
01:16:47Wait.
01:16:48He's also super hot.
01:16:49Okay.
01:16:50What?
01:16:51Wait, how did I miss this?
01:16:52You were still in the meeting room.
01:16:54I was the only witness.
01:16:56Perks of being HR.
01:16:58Okay, do you know where he is?
01:17:00That's the craziest part.
01:17:01He is at the courthouse downtown.
01:17:04What?
01:17:05He's getting married.
01:17:13Andy?
01:17:18Andy?
01:17:23I'm so sorry.
01:17:24I thought...
01:17:31Corinne.
01:17:34Someone told me that you were at the courthouse.
01:17:37Are you here to heroically stop my Irene's marriage?
01:17:40Okay, well, you don't belong with Betty, okay?
01:17:42You just don't.
01:17:43You've worked so hard, and you deserve to be with somebody that loves you.
01:17:46Like, everything about you.
01:17:47Well, maybe Betty does, but you know what?
01:17:49I really don't think so.
01:17:50She's kind of a bitch.
01:17:51Sorry, I'm getting kind of sidetracked.
01:17:54Do not laugh at me, okay?
01:17:56I am trying to give a speech.
01:17:59You, um...
01:18:01You deserve to pick your own path.
01:18:04Whatever that is.
01:18:05And, you know, I've always kind of really admired that about you.
01:18:08Don't go through with it.
01:18:09If I can call off my wedding, then so can you.
01:18:12Are you done?
01:18:14Yes.
01:18:15I'm not marrying Betty.
01:18:19I'm not marrying Betty.
01:18:24Hey, Betty.
01:18:25Can we talk about the marriage?
01:18:27Andy, can't you just be happy with me?
01:18:29Our mothers are so intent on the marriage,
01:18:31they've decided to forego the wedding altogether
01:18:33and just get it over with in a courthouse.
01:18:35Isn't that enough for you?
01:18:36You need to stand up to them with me.
01:18:38This whole time you've been perfectly obedient,
01:18:40this will not be over until you say no too.
01:18:43It's not just obedience, Andy.
01:18:45I've loved you since we were kids.
01:18:47You don't love me.
01:18:48You don't even know what love is.
01:18:51I was never going to marry Betty contrary to popular belief.
01:18:54Oh, just like I was never the mole contrary to popular belief.
01:18:59So, is this where I get to say I told you so?
01:19:01I may or may not have made some assumptions.
01:19:03Understatement of the year.
01:19:05And reacted without solid evidence.
01:19:09I'm sorry for not trusting you, Corey.
01:19:11Nothing that I said to you was true.
01:19:12You haven't made my life any worse.
01:19:14In fact, you have made it a hell of a lot better.
01:19:19We can call it even.
01:19:24Sure.
01:19:26I'm sorry.
01:19:28Sure.
01:19:31So, what is Mr. Rhodes going to do now?
01:19:36Well, I actually have a very busy evening moving my roommate in.
01:19:40Oh!
01:19:42It's going to be a workout too.
01:19:43She has a shit ton of books.
01:19:47But I love her anyways.
01:19:49No question.
01:19:50If it had been me at the altar, would you have ran?
01:19:53Well, we'll just have to see.
01:19:55I'm going to need some insurance.
01:19:56Oh, shut up and kiss me.
