00:00:30Surprise, daddy!
00:00:44Shopping for a stepmother is so much easier when they come to you.
00:00:47Which one catches your eye?
00:00:48Come on, Emily.
00:00:49I'm running a corporation.
00:00:50I'm not auditioning for The Bachelor, okay?
00:00:51So why don't you just call this whole pageant off.
00:00:54Fine.
00:00:55But just so you know, if you insist on living like a hermit, I'll have to cancel school
00:01:04in Oxford.
00:01:05Somebody has to make sure you don't overwork yourself to death.
00:01:09You know, I meant to tell you, and I'm so sorry I didn't, but I'm already married.
00:01:14You're what?
00:01:15Yeah, I'm married.
00:01:16Tell me, who's this mystery woman that managed to thaw the great Ethan Carter's heart?
00:01:21Uh, Leo?
00:01:22Betty White, sir.
00:01:23Betty White.
00:01:24Wow, David.
00:01:25Your new apartment is amazing.
00:01:26Shoes!
00:01:27I've got some shoe covers.
00:01:28I'm tracking dirt inside.
00:01:29David!
00:01:30Thank you, son.
00:01:31Melissa, you must be exhausted growing this little miracle.
00:01:32I'm not.
00:01:33I'm not.
00:01:34I'm not.
00:01:35I'm not.
00:01:36I'm not.
00:01:37I'm not.
00:01:38I'm not.
00:01:39I'm not.
00:01:40I'm not.
00:01:41I'm not.
00:01:42I'm not.
00:01:43I'm not.
00:01:44I'm not.
00:01:45I'm not.
00:01:46I'm not.
00:01:47I'm not.
00:01:48I'm not.
00:01:49I'm not.
00:01:50I'm not.
00:01:51I'm not.
00:01:53I brought some fresh produce from my garden.
00:01:55Everything's organic, filled with nutrients, just what you and the baby need.
00:01:59Thanks, Mom.
00:02:01You know what?
00:02:03You actually look younger than I remembered.
00:02:07Could have charged an extra twenty thousand for the marriage.
00:02:11What?
00:02:12What is she talking about?
00:02:14David, you didn't tell her?
00:02:16Tell me what?
00:02:17I found your husband.
00:02:19Mr. Porter, he's quite desperate for a wife, and he's willing to pay a hundred thousand
00:02:24dollars for the marriage.
00:02:26Marriage?
00:02:27Okay, I'm not remarrying.
00:02:29You don't get to be interested or not.
00:02:32David and I, when we got married, what did your family give me?
00:02:36Absolutely nothing.
00:02:41This baby formula itself costs a hundred grand.
00:02:44That's enough for us.
00:02:46This is for your grandson's future.
00:02:48Melissa, stop.
00:02:49Stop, Melissa.
00:02:51Mr. Porter is an alcoholic.
00:02:53He's abusive and dangerous.
00:02:55His last wife ended up in the hospital twice.
00:02:58Shut up, David.
00:02:59Nobody asked for your opinion.
00:03:01Take my side, or I swear you never get to see your baby boy.
00:03:06Stop.
00:03:07Please stop fighting.
00:03:08Don't blame my son for this, okay?
00:03:11The reason I can't remarry is because I'm already married.
00:03:16What?
00:03:17Yeah.
00:03:18You're married?
00:03:19Yes.
00:03:20To who?
00:03:21Prove it.
00:03:22Where's the certificate?
00:03:23Show me.
00:03:25Show me.
00:03:29We had a deal.
00:03:30You said you'd sign the marriage papers for ten thousand dollars.
00:03:33Now you're demanding fifty?
00:03:35That's extortion.
00:03:36Inflation, supply and demand.
00:03:38Call it whatever the heck you want.
00:03:40If you don't pay, I'm leaving.
00:03:43I can't come up with that kind of money.
00:03:50What am I going to do?
00:03:52I'll marry you.
00:03:53No charge.
00:03:58I'll marry you.
00:03:59No charge.
00:04:08Oh.
00:04:09There you go.
00:04:10There's that.
00:04:11Here.
00:04:12This is a limited edition Patek Philippe worth seven hundred thousand dollars.
00:04:13Consider it a wedding gift.
00:04:14Seven hundred thousand dollars?
00:04:15Yeah.
00:04:16That's insane.
00:04:17There's no way I can accept something that valuable.
00:04:18You can, and you will.
00:04:19Look, I have a board meeting in twenty minutes, so go ahead.
00:04:20Take it.
00:04:38There you go.
00:04:39I'll be in touch.
00:04:53So you actually went and got married.
00:04:57What now?
00:04:58You're going to bring him and have him reach out for this?
00:05:02No.
00:05:03I sold the house.
00:05:06The house that David grew up in.
00:05:08This should be enough to cover the baby's formula, and then some.
00:05:16I won't be bothering you anymore.
00:05:18I'll be on my way.
00:05:20Bye, David.
00:05:22Bye.
00:05:34The assembly's flight to Oxford just took off.
00:05:37The marriage plan worked.
00:05:40And the surgery?
00:05:41Already scheduled.
00:05:43The doctors estimate a full year for recovery.
00:05:47Should we inform your wife?
00:05:52No.
00:05:59Mama?
00:06:00Mama?
00:06:03Mama?
00:06:04I love you.
00:06:09Mom.
00:06:13I don't think we should see each other anymore.
00:06:16For a long time.
00:06:18Melissa gets upset.
00:06:20I don't want to stir anything with her.
00:06:22It's okay, son. I understand.
00:06:27Thanks, Mom.
00:06:34Take care.
00:06:51Sir, she hasn't responded.
00:06:53I don't think she's coming.
00:06:56Well, it seems I read this wrong.
00:06:58She made a choice, so...
00:07:00Let's go.
00:07:20Mom?
00:07:29Mom!
00:07:31Help!
00:07:32Help!
00:07:33Call an ambulance!
00:07:35Mom!
00:07:50Sophia!
00:07:51Let me help you!
00:07:52No, you shouldn't be doing that on your own.
00:07:54I'm fine, I'm fine.
00:07:55Just please go back inside.
00:07:57I can't believe David hasn't seen you since the accident.
00:08:01I mean, you sold your house, you moved to the village.
00:08:04All for him.
00:08:05And he can't be bothered to call?
00:08:07He's happy.
00:08:08He's living his life.
00:08:09That's all that really matters.
00:08:11What about your husband?
00:08:13He got married a year ago and I haven't even met the man.
00:08:17You know what?
00:08:18After the accident, it was all such a blur.
00:08:20It happened so quickly and I don't even remember what he looks like.
00:08:23I'm late for work.
00:08:24I have to go.
00:08:28So stubborn.
00:08:35Sophie, those windows are a disgrace.
00:08:39Go clean them.
00:08:40Now, are you getting too old for this job?
00:08:44Yes, ma'am.
00:08:48No!
00:09:18Eyes up!
00:09:20Who do you think you are, staring at the chairman like that?
00:09:24Don't even dream of it.
00:09:34I'll marry you.
00:09:35No charge.
00:09:39This is a limited edition Patek Philippe worth $700,000.
00:09:48Okay.
00:10:04The proposal for the Henderson client meeting, Ms. Carter.
00:10:10I got this in Paris.
00:10:12Limited edition.
00:10:13And my meeting is in 30 minutes.
00:10:16Here you go.
00:10:19Excuse me, if I may.
00:10:23I can mend that for you.
00:10:25It'll be good as new.
00:10:27Okay.
00:10:31Wow.
00:10:33There you are.
00:10:34It's good as new.
00:10:35New?
00:10:36This isn't just a fix, it's an improvement.
00:10:38The embroidery is amazing.
00:10:40I'm glad you like it.
00:10:41Thank you so much.
00:10:42I have to go, but I hope I see you again.
00:10:44Okay.
00:10:47Bye.
00:10:50Meeting adjourned.
00:10:52No one has any other questions.
00:10:54That's all.
00:11:00Oh, your quarterly projections are impressive.
00:11:03Clearly that new school is really paying off.
00:11:06Save it, Dad.
00:11:07I did a little investigating,
00:11:09and I only found one toothbrush in your bathroom,
00:11:13one coffee mug,
00:11:14and zero signs of any feminine touch anywhere.
00:11:17When I said I was going to skip school,
00:11:20you claimed you were married.
00:11:22How are you going to stick to that story, Dad?
00:11:25I'm married.
00:11:26I told you I was married.
00:11:27I'm married.
00:11:28Perfect.
00:11:29Let's meet her tonight.
00:11:31Well, you see, honey,
00:11:32your step-mom's a really busy woman.
00:11:35Tonight's not the night.
00:11:37Then when?
00:11:40Soon.
00:11:41Very soon.
00:11:42I promise.
00:11:53Everything happened so quickly.
00:11:56I'm not sure if I can recognize her face anymore.
00:11:59You first called your wife in a year.
00:12:01This is so exciting.
00:12:05Sorry, sir.
00:12:13Oh.
00:12:34Personal calls on company time.
00:12:37You were slapping off earlier, and...
00:12:39Now this.
00:12:40You can kiss that performance bonus goodbye.
00:12:42No, no, ma'am, please.
00:12:43Earlier, I was only helping a young woman with her torn sleeve.
00:12:47Enough of the excuses.
00:12:49Remember your place.
00:12:50You're just a cleaning lady.
00:12:52One more slip-up, and you're out on the street.
00:12:56The only one leaving today is you, Sandra.
00:12:58Mr. Carter.
00:12:59Losing your authority?
00:13:00Threatening employees?
00:13:01It's not leadership.
00:13:02It's cowardice.
00:13:03You're fired.
00:13:05Please.
00:13:06Sir, no.
00:13:07I promise it'll never happen again.
00:13:09Please.
00:13:12Just get out of my sight.
00:13:14Thank you, sir.
00:13:22Thank you, Mr. Carter.
00:13:24What's your name?
00:13:26Sophia Reid, sir.
00:13:29Sophia Reid.
00:13:31Sir?
00:13:33Sophia Reid.
00:13:35It sounds so familiar.
00:13:37Mr. Carter.
00:13:39Everything except for the meeting with your wife.
00:13:41The chairman is married now?
00:13:44I thought he raised his daughter by himself.
00:13:46Prepare some gifts.
00:13:48Yes, sir.
00:13:52He's so thoughtful to his wife.
00:13:55The End
00:14:00Look at that car.
00:14:01The paint job alone probably costs more than my house.
00:14:03What somebody like that is doing here?
00:14:06It can't be good.
00:14:23Gifts for your wife.
00:14:25Sir?
00:14:26Custom Cartier jewelry.
00:14:28The keys to the Mercedes, the BMW, and the Porsche.
00:14:31And a limited edition designer watch from Rolex.
00:14:36So this is how she's been living?
00:14:39Put an estate on the list.
00:14:41Yes, sir.
00:14:45Except for my manager, Sandra.
00:14:47She was breathing down my neck.
00:14:49Breathing down my neck?
00:14:51Did you just cut it out for me or something?
00:14:56Hello?
00:14:57Hi, it's your husband.
00:14:59I'm sorry, who is this?
00:15:00Ethan Carter.
00:15:02Ethan Carter.
00:15:04Is he Ethan Carter?
00:15:07Did you say your name was Carter?
00:15:09I'm sorry.
00:15:10Dinner's ready.
00:15:12Get a little pasta bolognese.
00:15:16She's living with another man?
00:15:24Hello?
00:15:25Looks delicious.
00:15:27Whoever that was just hung up on me.
00:15:30I have no idea.
00:15:31That was so rude.
00:15:32She's living with another man?
00:15:34She's cheating on you.
00:15:38Let's go.
00:15:46Anyways, this looks lovely.
00:15:49I know, doesn't it look delicious?
00:15:51You know, he does this for me like four times a week.
00:15:54Are you kidding me?
00:15:55Yep.
00:15:56You've got yourself quite the catch.
00:15:58I know.
00:15:59Hooks, cleans.
00:16:01He does it all.
00:16:03Happy for you.
00:16:04Jealous.
00:16:06When are we going to find that mystery man of yours?
00:16:16Forget about him.
00:16:19Okay, you know what I really want to show you?
00:16:21Is my little angel, Henry.
00:16:24Look how cute he is.
00:16:26He's almost one.
00:16:29Get me a divorce lawyer.
00:16:31Hello, Mr. Carter.
00:16:32Good morning, Mr. Carter.
00:16:34The chairman looks upset.
00:16:37Is there trouble in paradise?
00:16:41Hello?
00:16:49Henry's birthday is today.
00:16:58It's perfect timing.
00:16:59I can finally give him this.
00:17:11Mom, what are you doing here?
00:17:16I came to see my grandson and give him this bracelet.
00:17:20Get your filthy hands away from my son.
00:17:23You're contaminating him with your disgusting germs.
00:17:26Honey, that's enough.
00:17:28Don't you dare defend her.
00:17:30Who even let her in?
00:17:32This is a private party.
00:17:34Melissa?
00:17:36That is hardly a party.
00:17:38Melissa, that is hardly any way to address your mother-in-law.
00:17:42Mother, please.
00:17:44After all, it's only natural for someone of her station
00:17:49to want to see how the other half lives.
00:17:54Feel free to take some table scraps home.
00:17:57Must be an upgrade from your usual therapy.
00:17:59Richard, stop.
00:18:00You know what? I just wanted to see my grandson, but I'll leave.
00:18:04Just don't worry about me.
00:18:06What is this?
00:18:07Real gold?
00:18:08Where did you steal this from?
00:18:11Lawson found?
00:18:12No, I did not.
00:18:16Please, I...
00:18:17This was my own money. I saved it for my grandson.
00:18:20Save it?
00:18:21You don't even deserve to be called a grandmother.
00:18:24Precisely.
00:18:25You are nothing but a cleaning woman.
00:18:28Remember your place.
00:18:30That's enough.
00:18:31Hey! Watch your tone.
00:18:33This is my uncle's hotel.
00:18:35And we're about to sign a big deal with the Carters group today.
00:18:39And he'll finally be a VP.
00:18:42What do you have to offer?
00:18:47No, I have people for that. That's what my assistant Leo is for.
00:18:50Jim Carter?
00:18:52Yes, so it's Tuesday, 3 p.m. Can we confirm that now?
00:18:56Great. Okay.
00:18:58Excuse me.
00:18:59Sir.
00:19:00May I say that we are honored by your acquisition, sir.
00:19:04Please, allow me to give you the grand tour.
00:19:06Looking forward to it.
00:19:08This way.
00:19:10You should be grateful that we even let you through that door.
00:19:14Liz, if you stop, okay?
00:19:16I'll leave.
00:19:17You let the cleaning woman leave.
00:19:20Isn't that the grandmother?
00:19:22I heard that she's super poor and her son only married into the family for money.
00:19:27Grandmother, ha!
00:19:29You're nothing but a common thief!
00:19:35Thief!
00:19:36I'm not a thief.
00:19:37Don't say that.
00:19:38Just ten minutes ago, my bracelet went missing.
00:19:41And then you show up uninvited.
00:19:43What are you talking about?
00:19:44What else could you be if you're doing here?
00:19:47I didn't steal anything, okay? I bought this.
00:19:51I'm not a thief.
00:19:53I didn't steal anything, okay? I bought this.
00:19:56Then you wouldn't mind if we check your bag, no?
00:19:59No.
00:20:00What are you doing?
00:20:01Stop!
00:20:02Mom! Mom!
00:20:03If you have nothing to hide, maybe you should just let them check.
00:20:05Fine, fine.
00:20:06Whatever.
00:20:08It's the harm.
00:20:10Okay, look, whatever.
00:20:16That's a limited edition Patek Philippe.
00:20:18Only one exists.
00:20:20And it belongs to Chairman Carter.
00:20:24Moving on to Q3.
00:20:25Now, you'll notice that the...
00:20:27Mr. Carter, your wife is here.
00:20:29She's in the banquet hall.
00:20:31She has on the watch you gave her.
00:20:35If you'll excuse me, can we reschedule?
00:20:37Of course.
00:20:38Something I have to take care of.
00:20:39Okay.
00:20:41What the hell is this?
00:20:45How did you get a watch like this?
00:20:46It's a gift.
00:20:47It was a gift from my husband.
00:20:51Oh, yeah.
00:20:53Your husband.
00:20:54What la-la land do you live in?
00:20:56It's either fake or stolen.
00:20:59Or perhaps she's been helping herself to valuables while cleaning.
00:21:04It was a gift.
00:21:05I got it from my husband.
00:21:08Husband, a cleaner like you have a husband that can afford that.
00:21:14I love how you entertain us and make us laugh all the time.
00:21:19Oh!
00:21:22Fake or real, you mean nothing to us.
00:21:25And you don't deserve to be my son's grandmother.
00:21:29Oh, please.
00:21:30Stop humiliating yourself.
00:21:32People like you don't belong in our world.
00:21:38What else did you steal?
00:21:40Get your hands off me!
00:21:41How dare you touch my daughter!
00:21:43Search her!
00:21:44Let's see what else she's hiding!
00:21:46Stop!
00:21:47Hey!
00:21:48Leave me alone!
00:21:49Get your hands off my wife!
00:21:53Please!
00:21:54Hey!
00:21:55Get your hands off my wife!
00:21:58Move.
00:22:02You okay?
00:22:03I'm fine.
00:22:04And who are you exactly?
00:22:05I'm her husband.
00:22:06A chauffeur or a security guard?
00:22:09She's a thief!
00:22:11If you were actually her husband, you can pay for everything that she stole!
00:22:15Accusing and searching her without evidence is illegal.
00:22:19Evidence?
00:22:21A worker like her doesn't wear designer watches.
00:22:24That itself is an evidence.
00:22:27So wealth defines character.
00:22:31Is that your idea of justice?
00:22:33Justice is whatever I say it is.
00:22:37Uncle, perfect timing.
00:22:39Do you see him?
00:22:41He's a general manager of this hotel.
00:22:43And nobody like you should get on your knees.
00:22:46Maybe he'll be merciful.
00:22:49Your arrogance is adorable.
00:22:52Oh, you're going to have to watch your mouth.
00:22:54Do you know the Carter Corporation?
00:22:56The multi-billion dollar conglomerate?
00:22:58Well, they're buying this hotel.
00:23:00And they're going to make me vice president.
00:23:04Oh, that's very interesting.
00:23:07Because of your behavior today, that acquisition is dead.
00:23:14Yeah, that's funny.
00:23:16You? Stop a Carter Corporation deal?
00:23:26Let me tell you something.
00:23:27Mr. Brooks and Chairman Carter himself negotiated this deal.
00:23:32Oh. Well, maybe I should get Mr. Brooks on the phone.
00:23:37It's funny. I think I have his number.
00:23:40Yeah, right.
00:23:44Mr. Brooks! Hi.
00:23:46I'd like to see you in your banquet hall.
00:23:48ASAP, please.
00:23:52He answered.
00:23:53What now?
00:23:54You're just bored and playing make-believe CEO now?
00:23:58Exactly.
00:23:59If Mr. Brooks actually comes here, I will get on my knees and beg.
00:24:05Mr. Brooks is here.
00:24:09Sir, perfect timing.
00:24:10Perfect timing?
00:24:11This imposter says that he's Chairman Carter.
00:24:14You are an absolute fool.
00:24:16This is Chairman Carter.
00:24:19Chairman Carter?
00:24:20Your incompetence may have just lost us everything.
00:24:24If this acquisition falls through, you will lose it all.
00:24:28Check the security footage.
00:24:29Prove this woman is innocent.
00:24:31Now!
00:24:32Oh, my.
00:24:33Oh, look what I found.
00:24:35It must have slipped off my wrist earlier today.
00:24:38This is such a silly misunderstanding.
00:24:41Yeah, just an everyday mix-up.
00:24:43Mix-up!
00:24:44You planted evidence to frame an innocent woman!
00:24:49You embarrass this hotel.
00:24:52Effective immediately, you're fired.
00:24:54And you will face a legal action for damages if this acquisition falls through.
00:25:00Forget the acquisition.
00:25:03I've made my decision. Have a good day.
00:25:05Chairman Carter.
00:25:06Let's go.
00:25:07Please.
00:25:08Please reconsider.
00:25:19Mom, wait.
00:25:24Mom, wait.
00:25:31Is it true?
00:25:33About you and Mr. Carter?
00:25:34Carter?
00:25:38Alyssa was wondering if you could maybe forgive her uncle.
00:25:44We are family, after all.
00:25:48He's not my husband.
00:25:51He's just my boss.
00:25:55Of course he is.
00:25:57As if someone like him would marry a small-town nobody.
00:26:03David, let's just go.
00:26:05Let's not waste our precious time on her.
00:26:13Sophia.
00:26:17Why is it every time I see you, you're being tormented by someone?
00:26:21I guess I'm just not very good at standing up for myself.
00:26:25I'm bleeding.
00:26:34Mr. Carter, you're such a kind boss.
00:26:40Your wife must be so lucky.
00:26:44You wouldn't happen to have a Patek Philippe, would you?
00:26:47Patek Philippe? Is that a puppy?
00:26:52She's not my wife.
00:26:55I should wash this. I'll return it to you.
00:26:59I should get going.
00:27:01Thanks, Mr. Carter.
00:27:02Of course.
00:27:18Dad, when am I going to meet my new stepmom? You promised.
00:27:22It's not so simple right now.
00:27:24How complicated can it be?
00:27:32Did you two have a fight?
00:27:35Let me guess, she cheated on you?
00:27:42Oh my gosh, she cheated on you?
00:27:46She must be incredible to find someone better than you.
00:27:53Really? Jokes right now?
00:27:57Come on, Dad. You're literally a catch.
00:27:59You're rich, you're handsome, only slightly controlling.
00:28:05There must be some sort of mix-up.
00:28:07If you're really her husband, just talk it out.
00:28:11I've got lots of relationship advice. Lots.
00:28:14You want to hear some?
00:28:16I want relationship advice for my daughter.
00:28:24Sir.
00:28:26Not now, Eden.
00:28:28Sir.
00:28:30This is important.
00:28:36We found that at the hospital.
00:28:38It must have fallen out during your surgery.
00:28:41It's a little worn out, but it still stands.
00:28:45Sophia?
00:28:48What's your name?
00:28:50Sophia Reid, sir.
00:28:53Would it really be her?
00:28:55I'll see you in the morning.
00:28:58No, clear my schedule. I'm meeting her tonight.
00:29:13Leo, is the chairman feeling unwell?
00:29:17Oh, he's fine.
00:29:19Let's just say he'll be all over his wife tonight.
00:29:25A showdown?
00:29:27He works so hard and takes care of everyone.
00:29:30She doesn't know how lucky she is.
00:29:37The watch from the hotel, sir.
00:29:40The one you gave your wife.
00:29:42The value's gone up over a million this past year.
00:29:46She kept it all this time.
00:29:49Maybe I judged her too quickly.
00:29:55Is there a flower shop anywhere around?
00:29:58I know just the place, sir.
00:30:00Driver.
00:30:02Take us to Le Dom Omelon, s'il vous plait.
00:30:12What? They accused you of stealing?
00:30:15You know what? I am going to go find your son right now.
00:30:19It is not right that David lets you get treated this way.
00:30:21Please, Mr. Carter took care of everything. It's fine, okay?
00:30:26Sorry, guys. I got a little congestion. I gotta run out to the pharmacy. I'm feeling awful.
00:30:31Kevin, you can't go out in this cold. You're sick. I'll get your medicine, okay? You just go rest.
00:30:37Please. I'm begging you. Just let it go.
00:30:52Should I come with you, sir?
00:30:55I can handle it, Leo.
00:31:22Whew.
00:31:30Hi. Is Sophia Reid here?
00:31:33Yeah.
00:31:35Who's asking?
00:31:37Kevin, honey, get back inside before your temperature spikes.
00:31:41Who are you supposed to be?
00:31:44So this is my wife?
00:31:46Legally still married and shacking up with some guy?
00:31:48Buddy, I don't know what your deal is, but you clearly need to get your eyes checked, okay?
00:32:13What's going on? Was someone just here?
00:32:15Yeah. Some grumpy old guy who acted like we owed him $500 million.
00:32:20Wait.
00:32:23These are absolutely beautiful tulips. My favorite.
00:32:29Why would someone just leave them there? That's such a waste.
00:32:32No, no kidding. He's crazy.
00:32:36Get my lawyer on the phone. I want divorce papers drawn up immediately.
00:32:41Divorce? Sir, yesterday every person...
00:32:44Just do it.
00:32:46It's just that, uh, your daughter, sir.
00:32:50She's expecting to be your wife. I mean, the restaurant's already booked.
00:33:01Mr. Howard, I'm sorry.
00:33:14Mr. Reid?
00:33:16A moment.
00:33:19These gifts are for the chairman's wife.
00:33:25What do you think?
00:33:27Wow. This could buy a down payment on a house for $100,000.
00:33:32I don't know what you're talking about.
00:33:34I don't know what you're talking about.
00:33:36I don't know what you're talking about.
00:33:38I don't know what you're talking about.
00:33:40Wow. This could buy a down payment on a house for me.
00:33:45A down payment?
00:33:47Well, according to my calculations, given the current market rates, you could buy the house.
00:33:54As well as an upgrade to boot.
00:33:56What?
00:33:58Ms. Reid.
00:34:00All of this is yours.
00:34:03If you agree to be my wife.
00:34:10All of this is yours.
00:34:13If you agree to be my wife.
00:34:15Mr. Carter, but you're already married. You're happy with your wife.
00:34:20Well, appearances can be deceiving.
00:34:23Well, every couple has their rough patches, right? You should just talk to her.
00:34:28She betrayed me.
00:34:30Mr. Carter, should I even be hearing this? Will I even have my job after this?
00:34:36Yeah, of course.
00:34:37Yeah, of course.
00:34:39Not only will you have a job, but you'll have all of this as well.
00:34:46See, it's for my daughter.
00:34:49She won't travel abroad unless she feels I'm taken care of.
00:34:56Alright, I'll help you, but I'm not doing it for the gifts.
00:35:00I'm doing it because you've been so kind to me in the past.
00:35:08Right this way.
00:35:28After you.
00:35:29After you.
00:35:33I understand meeting your daughter, but shopping?
00:35:37Well, you're the chairman's wife now. You have to look the part.
00:35:43Oh, I gotta take this.
00:35:47Get whatever you want, I'll take care of it when I get back.
00:35:50Okay.
00:35:59Okay.
00:36:10Excuse me, this isn't part of your cleaning route.
00:36:19Here, take it.
00:36:23Now, please leave.
00:36:24Now, please leave.
00:36:28I'd like to look at some clothes.
00:36:31Oh, would you? It's nice to have dreams, but really, I didn't call for anything to be cleaned.
00:36:37No, no, I'm here to shop. I just came from work.
00:36:41Don't play naive. People like you come in here just to look, and then ending up taking some freebies.
00:36:49That's no way to treat a customer.
00:36:52A customer? Look at yourself. You are wearing a janitor uniform. You don't belong in here.
00:36:59Look at this. This costs more than you make in a month.
00:37:03Now, take your dirty little ass out.
00:37:06The only thing dirty in this store is your attitude.
00:37:14And who do you think you are?
00:37:16I'm somebody that's about to teach you about class because clearly you have none.
00:37:20Mr. Carter, we had no idea you were coming.
00:37:23So is this how you train your staff? Embarrassing customers before they come and have a chance to look around?
00:37:28Apologize. Now.
00:37:30But she doesn't look like our usual clientele.
00:37:34Silence. This is Chairman Carter, our VIP. You're fired.
00:37:39But please, it wasn't my fault. Look at her. She's just some poor cleaner. She doesn't have a presence for our clothes.
00:37:46Well, you're the one who can't see.
00:37:48She could wear anything in the store better than any of your regular customers.
00:37:52Bring out your finest items. Everything she wants, it's on my account.
00:37:57Of course, Mr. Carter. Right this way, madame.
00:38:00Mr. Carter, these clothes must cost a fortune.
00:38:03They do. But you deserve it.
00:38:15Perfect.
00:38:17Absolutely stunning, madame.
00:38:26Wow.
00:38:36Mr. Carter, this dress is made for her.
00:38:40Breathtaking.
00:38:41This is too much. I don't need any-
00:38:43You need to look like the Chairman's wife.
00:38:46We'll take everything.
00:38:48How much?
00:38:50It's irrelevant. We're just getting started.
00:38:53Next, accessories, jewelry, and the full beauty treatment.
00:39:12Your daughter's suicide, right?
00:39:14Yeah.
00:39:16Do you think she'll like me?
00:39:19She's gonna love you. Just like everyone else.
00:39:23Okay.
00:39:25Okay.
00:39:27Come on.
00:39:30Are you sure about this?
00:39:32I am positive. Absolutely sure.
00:39:42Are you sure about this?
00:39:44I am positive. Absolutely sure.
00:39:49What's wrong?
00:39:52She recognizes me. She knows I'm the chambermaid at your hotel.
00:39:56You're gonna be perfectly fine. Okay?
00:39:59Trust me. Okay?
00:40:01Nothing's gonna fall apart before you.
00:40:04You're the lady that helped me, right?
00:40:06That's right.
00:40:07You're the one my dad married?
00:40:09Yep.
00:40:11Sophia, right?
00:40:13This is wonderful.
00:40:15My dad couldn't have found anyone better or kinder than you.
00:40:18I got you a gift.
00:40:20Oh, wow.
00:40:22Especially for this occasion.
00:40:24This looks too fancy.
00:40:26Are you sure?
00:40:28Welcome to the family.
00:40:31Why don't we go to the table?
00:40:33Go to the table.
00:40:35Cheers.
00:40:37Mmm.
00:40:39Ethan, would you like to try some of my steak?
00:40:42Uh, no. I don't eat red meat.
00:40:44Oh. It's fine.
00:40:47Would you like to try some of my shrimp?
00:40:54Oh, no. I can't. I'm allergic to seafood.
00:40:58You two look like you've never eaten together.
00:41:01Are you sure you're even married?
00:41:03Of course we're married.
00:41:04We're just a little tired. It was a long day.
00:41:22Is that the handkerchief I gave you?
00:41:24Yeah. It is.
00:41:26You kept it.
00:41:27I did.
00:41:29Aw, gross.
00:41:31You two are so cute together.
00:41:35Cheers.
00:41:39Oh, um, sorry. I just have to take this call. I'll be right back.
00:41:48So?
00:41:53I've got to take this. I'm sorry.
00:41:55Be back.
00:41:59Hello?
00:42:00Mrs. Reed, I'm your husband attorney. Do you have time to discuss the term of your divorce?
00:42:05Divorce?
00:42:09Divorce?
00:42:13No. Now's not a good time. Um, can we reschedule?
00:42:17Yeah, thanks.
00:42:18She's stalling again? Fine. I'll just handle it myself.
00:42:26Why is he calling now of all times?
00:42:28Hello?
00:42:29I'm done playing games.
00:42:30We have to finalize this divorce once and for all.
00:42:32And stop acting like children.
00:42:34You want a divorce?
00:42:35Fine. Let's get a divorce.
00:42:37Friday, 5 p.m. at the courthouse. I expect you'll be there.
00:42:42Okay. He just hung up on me.
00:42:44What a jerk.
00:42:54What happened?
00:42:55One phone call and you two look ready to commit murder.
00:42:59Well, it turns out not all men are as kind and thoughtful as your father.
00:43:04Some are completely impossible.
00:43:08Not all women have Sophia's kindness and grace. That's for sure.
00:43:13Should I leave you two together?
00:43:19Should I leave you two together? Alone?
00:43:22Alone? Because the air is getting a little thick.
00:43:27Another wine, please.
00:43:30Cheers.
00:43:31Cheers.
00:43:36Thank you for today. I had a lot of fun.
00:43:40I had a lot of fun, too.
00:43:42I'll take care of all these gifts, the lavish clothing, you know, until Emily leaves.
00:43:46But I didn't do it for the gifts.
00:43:48No, I know.
00:43:49I know.
00:43:51This is me just here.
00:43:56You live here, too?
00:43:58Do you know someone else that lives here?
00:44:00Nobody. Just someone that I used to know.
00:44:06All right, well, good night.
00:44:13Good night.
00:44:20Good night.
00:44:28Ms. Carter.
00:44:29That's Sophia Reed's son, David Bennett.
00:44:31He's a supervisor at Hearts Clothing.
00:44:33His father-in-law owns it.
00:44:35Perfect timing.
00:44:37Let's send them an invitation to the industry summit.
00:44:39Let's give him a chance.
00:44:41It'll make Sophia happy, for her sake.
00:44:43Right away, Ms. Carter.
00:44:46This is it?
00:44:47It's for the Carter Group's premiere event.
00:44:49This isn't just any invitation.
00:44:51It's THE invitation that's going to get us into the big leagues.
00:44:55So, we're going to get rich.
00:44:57Although, didn't we sort of insult Chairman Carter?
00:45:04Forget about that.
00:45:05Emily Carter handpicked David.
00:45:09She obviously sees his potential.
00:45:11David, this is our shot.
00:45:13Don't blow it.
00:45:16Trust me.
00:45:17I won't let it slip away.
00:45:20Better not.
00:45:28This arrangement's amazing.
00:45:30I thought it would add some warmth to the event.
00:45:33Where'd you get them?
00:45:34I actually grew them in my garden.
00:45:38So thoughtful.
00:45:41Mr. Carter, you're a busy man.
00:45:43I should get back to work.
00:46:13Look at her, throwing herself at the chairman.
00:46:16She's playing with fire.
00:46:26I should really get back to work.
00:46:36Listen up!
00:46:37This summit is make or break.
00:46:40Our VIP guest, Mr. Winchester, is European nobility and is obsessed with music.
00:46:46Chairman Carter personally hired Yolanda to perform.
00:46:50One mistake and we're all finished.
00:46:53Sofia!
00:46:58You are on VIP lounge duty.
00:47:00Do not screw this up.
00:47:07What are we waiting for?
00:47:08Move, people, go!
00:47:11Shoot.
00:47:20Sofia!
00:47:22Drop it.
00:47:23Yes, ma'am.
00:47:24Main hall needs help.
00:47:25Let me just pack up my things.
00:47:26VIP lounge is not the priority right now.
00:47:28Off you go.
00:47:29Go.
00:47:30Underlay it.
00:47:31Very good, yes.
00:48:08What's going on?
00:48:14How did this get here?
00:48:15I just felt this this morning.
00:48:17This is weird.
00:48:19What's happening?
00:48:29Okay, and right this way.
00:48:31This will be the banquet hall for the night.
00:48:33We've got a great show tonight.
00:48:35I'm very excited about it.
00:48:36A great artist.
00:48:37Ship you.
00:48:40Great.
00:48:41It's an emergency.
00:48:42Yolanda's been rushed to the hospital.
00:48:46I think she's been poisoned.
00:48:48Okay, excuse me.
00:48:49I have to take care of something.
00:48:51I'll be back soon.
00:49:08Remember,
00:49:09your best behavior in there.
00:49:11Dad,
00:49:12I know how to act.
00:49:19I can't believe someone poisoned a singer.
00:49:21I heard they used cleaning chemicals from Sofia's supplies.
00:49:24Seems kind of suspicious to me.
00:49:30Your mom
00:49:31ruins everything she touches.
00:49:34Listen to me, David.
00:49:35If she cussed us this deal,
00:49:39I swear,
00:49:40we're done.
00:49:44The bottle was clearly labeled.
00:49:46This makes no sense.
00:49:49Are we still making excuses?
00:49:51Somebody
00:49:52could have died.
00:49:54Do you have any idea
00:49:55how much the venue spent
00:49:56on that sinner?
00:50:01How much the venue spent
00:50:02on that sinner?
00:50:04How are you going to fix this?
00:50:06Are we having a bit of trouble in here?
00:50:08Mr. Wichester,
00:50:10let me show you to the lounge first.
00:50:11Did you know this building was built in the 1800s,
00:50:13even great Texas singers...
00:50:16Leo,
00:50:17can we arrange another performance?
00:50:18Sir, we're ten minutes from curtain call.
00:50:20Even if we find someone,
00:50:21we'll never get them here in time.
00:50:24Mr. Carter,
00:50:25let me do it.
00:50:27You?
00:50:28What can you possibly do?
00:50:30I am so tired
00:50:31of being on the hook
00:50:32for your blunders.
00:50:40If she thinks she can do it,
00:50:44I trust her.
00:50:50The stage is yours.
00:50:57If she thinks she can do it,
00:51:00I trust her.
00:51:06The stage is yours.
00:51:14Mom,
00:51:15what are you thinking?
00:51:16This is much bigger than you realize.
00:51:18You can't just wing it.
00:51:20You better not screw this up.
00:51:22Ms. Carter invited us personally.
00:51:24This is our shot.
00:51:26I swear,
00:51:27if you embarrass us,
00:51:28I think I'm going to
00:51:29have a heart attack.
00:51:30You don't have to worry.
00:51:31I used to perform all the time
00:51:32when I was young.
00:51:34Some might even say
00:51:35I missed my calling.
00:51:36Wait, what?
00:51:37You're going to sing?
00:51:38Please.
00:51:39This is a high-end setting,
00:51:41not some small-town
00:51:43community theater.
00:51:44Mom,
00:51:45listen to her.
00:51:46You're going to humiliate yourself
00:51:47and us.
00:51:48You know what?
00:51:52You know what?
00:51:53The chairman believes in me.
00:51:55Why can't my son?
00:51:56The chairman believes in me.
00:51:57Why can't my son do the same?
00:51:59Mom.
00:52:00No!
00:52:10This singer must be
00:52:11some kind of a diva.
00:52:12Just a few moments.
00:52:14She'll be starting soon.
00:52:16Time's up.
00:52:17The cleaning lady failed.
00:52:18Surprise!
00:52:20All that work
00:52:21landing this client
00:52:22down the drain.
00:52:23That woman only knows
00:52:24how to screw things up.
00:52:53Oh, my God.
00:53:04Magnificent.
00:53:07Mr. Carr,
00:53:08can that really be Sofina?
00:53:10She looks immaculate.
00:53:15I love the timbre of her voice.
00:53:17That is the voice of an angel.
00:53:24Yeah, yeah.
00:53:25She cleans up nice,
00:53:26but that doesn't mean that...
00:53:28Just shut up
00:53:30for a moment.
00:53:53So I give you my heart
00:53:59So I give you my heart
00:54:07So I give you my heart
00:54:32Leo.
00:54:34My heart...
00:54:37It's racing.
00:54:38Please.
00:54:51Perhaps we could discuss
00:54:52this further over supper
00:54:53this evening.
00:54:55I know this French place.
00:54:56You would not believe.
00:54:59That's very kind of you.
00:55:00It was a briefing on duty.
00:55:02Your performance tonight
00:55:03was outstanding.
00:55:05The company would like
00:55:06to show its appreciation
00:55:08and give you a bonus.
00:55:10Say, $200,000.
00:55:12Mr. Carr, 200...
00:55:14Are you serious?
00:55:15Completely serious.
00:55:18$200,000?
00:55:19Mr. Carter, you can't be serious.
00:55:20Completely serious.
00:55:23Thank you so much.
00:55:24I'm going to work twice as hard now.
00:55:26I should change out of this
00:55:27into my cleaning clothes.
00:55:29Thank you so much.
00:55:39Did you get the security footage?
00:55:40Well, just as I suspected, sir.
00:55:44Sandra orchestrated the whole thing.
00:55:51Mr. Carter, please.
00:55:52Let me explain.
00:55:53You poisoned someone.
00:55:54You framed a colleague.
00:55:55You're fired.
00:55:56And all the financial
00:55:57damages tonight,
00:55:58you're responsible for.
00:56:00Get her out of here.
00:56:01Yes, boss.
00:56:02No, I only...
00:56:12Mom!
00:56:14That was incredible.
00:56:15I didn't know you could
00:56:16sing like that.
00:56:17My son, I'm so happy
00:56:18you were here for it.
00:56:19I get too excited.
00:56:21Lightning doesn't strike twice.
00:56:24At the end of the day,
00:56:26a cleaning lady
00:56:27with a borrowed dress
00:56:28is still just a
00:56:30cleaning lady.
00:56:32One lucky performance
00:56:33doesn't change who you are.
00:56:35Of course.
00:56:36Once this deal closes tonight,
00:56:38we will join in part
00:56:39with the real elite group.
00:56:42Sounds like we should be
00:56:43reconsidering this deal after all.
00:56:47And who the hell
00:56:48are you exactly?
00:56:50David,
00:56:51are you just gonna stand there
00:56:52while they treat
00:56:53your mother like dirt?
00:56:55Listen, you should really
00:56:56be minding your own business,
00:56:57you foolish girl.
00:57:00No wonder.
00:57:02They're so bold,
00:57:03they don't even know
00:57:04who they're insulting.
00:57:05Allow me to enlighten you.
00:57:07This is my stepmother.
00:57:09And yes,
00:57:10defending her
00:57:11is absolutely my business.
00:57:13Oh, this is rich.
00:57:15Playing dress-up,
00:57:17claiming a cleaning lady
00:57:18as mommy.
00:57:20How?
00:57:21That's better.
00:57:23Check it out.
00:57:31She, she slapped me!
00:57:33All that noise
00:57:34was giving me a headache.
00:57:35How dare you!
00:57:36How dare you talk to
00:57:37my family this way!
00:57:38And who the hell
00:57:39do you think you are?
00:57:40The Queen of England?
00:57:42Even better.
00:57:43I'm Emily Carter,
00:57:44and this is my company.
00:57:47Carter.
00:57:48As in,
00:57:49the daughter of Ethan Carter?
00:57:51Exactly.
00:57:52Now apologize to my mom.
00:57:56Hey, nice try.
00:57:58She already admitted
00:57:59that Carter is just her boss.
00:58:01So,
00:58:02your little act
00:58:03ain't fooling nobody.
00:58:07Emily, I really think
00:58:08we should just...
00:58:09It's okay, mom.
00:58:10I understand why you're
00:58:11trying to protect us,
00:58:12but you don't have to
00:58:13do that anymore.
00:58:15And these people
00:58:16aren't worth the effort.
00:58:17These are such
00:58:18ridiculous lies.
00:58:20We are all
00:58:21special guests of Ms. Carter's.
00:58:23So just one word.
00:58:24One word and what?
00:58:25Please do enlighten me.
00:58:27Just wait and see.
00:58:44Lucas,
00:58:45come to the lobby
00:58:47now.
00:58:49On my way.
00:58:50Lucas is
00:58:51Ms. Carter's personal assistant.
00:58:53He will sort this out.
00:58:55And I hope you're ready
00:58:56for what's about to happen.
00:58:58Mom,
00:58:59why don't we take a seat?
00:59:00The real show's about to begin.
00:59:03Hey,
00:59:04you won't be swallowing for long.
00:59:09Seems to be an emergency.
00:59:11This impostor
00:59:12is claiming that
00:59:13she's Emily Carter.
00:59:15Have a cicada.
00:59:19Can I see the invitation?
00:59:20Mom?
00:59:22Yes, of course.
00:59:23It's right here.
00:59:30Ma'am?
00:59:35Consider your invitation revoked.
00:59:38Nobody threatens
00:59:39Nobody threatens my mother.
00:59:45The deal.
00:59:46David, do something.
00:59:47Talk to your mom.
00:59:48Hey, Mom.
00:59:49You wouldn't mind
00:59:50if I helped you clean up a little,
00:59:51would you?
00:59:53Uh, sure.
00:59:54That would be wonderful.
00:59:56Great.
00:59:57Then let's start by
00:59:58taking out the trash.
00:59:59Please,
01:00:00Ms. Carter.
01:00:01We apologize.
01:00:02Mom,
01:00:03please.
01:00:04He attacked Emily.
01:00:06Don't worry about David.
01:00:08He needs this wake-up call.
01:00:11I'll make sure they go easy on him.
01:00:13Besides,
01:00:14we're family.
01:00:15You've got me now.
01:00:21Emily,
01:00:23you're a good person
01:00:24and, um,
01:00:25I,
01:00:26I feel awful about this.
01:00:28There's something I need to
01:00:29tell you.
01:00:31I'm not actually
01:00:34I'm not actually
01:00:35your father's wife.
01:00:37We're not married.
01:00:47I'm not actually
01:00:49your father's wife.
01:00:51We're not married.
01:00:52And
01:00:54the truth is
01:00:55he asked me to
01:00:56pretend to be his wife
01:00:57so that you would feel better
01:00:58about going off to Europe.
01:01:02I, um,
01:01:03I actually have a husband.
01:01:08I actually have a husband.
01:01:13No way.
01:01:14I don't believe it.
01:01:17The way Dad looks at you.
01:01:19Like,
01:01:20if you're the most important
01:01:21person in the world.
01:01:23Well,
01:01:24your dad needs glasses.
01:01:25He can't see me.
01:01:27And the way you look at him.
01:01:28It's not that subtle either.
01:01:31I'm blind as a bat.
01:01:32I mean,
01:01:33is your father handsome?
01:01:34I wouldn't even know.
01:01:36Very funny.
01:01:39Okay.
01:01:41Prove it.
01:01:42Call your real husband right now.
01:01:47Okay.
01:01:48I'll do that.
01:01:49Just give me a minute.
01:01:50I'll be right back.
01:02:03Hi Lucy.
01:02:04Hey Sophia.
01:02:05Everything okay?
01:02:06I need to ask you a favor.
01:02:07I need to borrow your husband
01:02:09for a little performance.
01:02:10Right now?
01:02:11Yes.
01:02:12Right away.
01:02:14Thanks.
01:02:18Sophia.
01:02:19Hi.
01:02:21May I give you a ride?
01:02:23Yeah.
01:02:30I should go.
01:02:31It's been so long.
01:02:34Yeah.
01:02:40She really is married.
01:02:45Daddy,
01:02:46you lied to me?
01:02:47Get in the car.
01:02:54So it was all pretend?
01:02:56You don't have any feelings for her?
01:02:57Who said anything about feelings?
01:02:59Well,
01:03:00you looked ready to murder her husband.
01:03:02You're so inadequate
01:03:05that he can't even do ten push-ups.
01:03:08I had to bet on that too.
01:03:09But Dad,
01:03:10he's her husband,
01:03:12not her bodyguard.
01:03:13In that car?
01:03:14I mean come on,
01:03:15a minivan?
01:03:16Can he do better than that?
01:03:20Oh,
01:03:21I see.
01:03:22You're just trying to sweep in
01:03:23and save her yourself.
01:03:24Exactly.
01:03:26No.
01:03:27That's not what I meant.
01:03:29Dad,
01:03:31I understand this is a ploy to trick me,
01:03:33but
01:03:35don't mess with her marriage
01:03:36just because you
01:03:37refuse to get married.
01:03:41You're right.
01:03:43You're right.
01:03:44You're right.
01:03:46You're right. You're right.
01:03:47You're always right.
01:03:50What is wrong with me?
01:03:52No doctor in the world
01:03:53can answer that one, Dad.
01:03:55Don't push it.
01:04:01Hey,
01:04:02so what are you looking for?
01:04:04Oh,
01:04:05you there.
01:04:06Le Maison,
01:04:0740% off.
01:04:08It's the least I could do.
01:04:09It's really good.
01:04:10You should try it.
01:04:11Le Maison?
01:04:13Fancy.
01:04:15What's a special occasion?
01:04:16I owe you.
01:04:17You let me borrow your husband earlier.
01:04:19Plus,
01:04:20it's your wedding anniversary tomorrow.
01:04:22We don't celebrate anymore.
01:04:25I'm not going to be able to
01:04:26celebrate with you.
01:04:28We don't celebrate anymore.
01:04:30We should all go together.
01:04:31I can't.
01:04:32I have to finalize my divorce tomorrow.
01:04:34And I can't even find
01:04:35the marriage certificate.
01:04:37Your marriage is so weird.
01:04:39Two meetings.
01:04:40One to get hitched
01:04:42and one to split up.
01:04:44It's for the best.
01:04:45There were never any
01:04:46real feelings involved.
01:04:48Well,
01:04:49thank you for these.
01:04:50No problem.
01:04:575 p.m., he said.
01:04:59So much for that.
01:05:05Can we go any faster, please?
01:05:08We're almost there, sir.
01:05:14Dad,
01:05:15that's Sofia's husband
01:05:16with another woman.
01:05:17He's cheating on her.
01:05:21Okay, change of plans.
01:05:25Take me to Le Maison.
01:05:26Yes, sir.
01:05:35What?
01:05:36Now you want to reschedule?
01:05:39All right.
01:05:45It's beautiful.
01:05:46Oh, boy, thank you.
01:05:49Look at that.
01:05:50Actually, I'm going to the restaurant
01:05:51tonight.
01:05:52Yeah, do your thing.
01:05:57You.
01:06:00Yeah, you.
01:06:08What dare you cheat on Sofia?
01:06:09Sofia?
01:06:10She knows I'm here.
01:06:11She recommended this place.
01:06:12She knows?
01:06:13She what?
01:06:14She what, huh?
01:06:16What are you talking about?
01:06:17We're family.
01:06:18I'm close with both sisters.
01:06:20Both sisters?
01:06:21Yeah.
01:06:27She deserves better than you.
01:06:36Oh, my God.
01:06:37Kevin,
01:06:38what happened?
01:06:39I don't know.
01:06:41Hey, tall boy,
01:06:42pick on someone your own size.
01:06:45Are you okay?
01:06:48Dad,
01:06:49we're bleeding money.
01:06:50The factory's going down.
01:06:52Do something.
01:06:53Really, Melissa?
01:06:54This is your mess.
01:06:56You just had to antagonize
01:06:57your mother-in-law
01:06:58and the entire Carter family,
01:06:59didn't you?
01:07:00What?
01:07:01How are you pinning everything on me?
01:07:03If you hadn't told me...
01:07:04Maybe this isn't such a disaster after all.
01:07:06Just wait, wait, wait.
01:07:08You two, listen.
01:07:09Think about this.
01:07:10We are now connected to the Carters
01:07:12by marriage.
01:07:13Once word gets out...
01:07:20Every bank in town
01:07:22will be throwing money at us.
01:07:24Exactly.
01:07:26And
01:07:27a little birdie told me
01:07:28that it's the cleaning lady's birthday soon.
01:07:32We are going to throw her a party
01:07:34and invite
01:07:36the chairman.
01:07:37But why would she come?
01:07:39She hates us.
01:07:41Because
01:07:42we have something she can't resist.
01:07:44What are you talking about?
01:07:45Oh, God, you two.
01:07:47Her precious grandson, Henry.
01:07:57Hello?
01:08:00Mom, it's Henry.
01:08:02He called.
01:08:04He's not home.
01:08:06Mom, he called you too?
01:08:08David, what's going on?
01:08:09I don't know.
01:08:11Let's go find out.
01:08:12Okay.
01:08:22Surprise!
01:08:23Happy birthday, Mom.
01:08:26What's going on?
01:08:28Where's my grandson?
01:08:29Is Henry sick or not?
01:08:31Oh, he's fine.
01:08:33We just wanted to surprise you.
01:08:36Mrs. Carter,
01:08:37let me introduce some colleagues.
01:08:39Mr. Brown,
01:08:40Mr. Collins,
01:08:41this is Ethan Carter's new wife.
01:08:43Alicia,
01:08:44Mrs. Carter, it's an honor.
01:08:46This is not...
01:08:47There's been some sort of mistake.
01:08:48I'm not who you think I am.
01:08:49No need to be modest.
01:08:51We all know how the Carters dote on you,
01:08:53don't we?
01:08:55If Henry's not sick,
01:08:57I should be going.
01:08:58But Mom,
01:08:59it's your special day.
01:09:01We have to celebrate.
01:09:05You know what?
01:09:06You should move in with us.
01:09:08We'll take such good care of you.
01:09:10We'll finally be a big, happy family.
01:09:13Please,
01:09:14let go of me.
01:09:16No.
01:09:17Not until you say yes.
01:09:26THE CARTERS
01:09:33Happy birthday!
01:09:36Perfect.
01:09:37One question, though.
01:09:38Where's your husband?
01:09:40Surely Mr. Carter's coming to celebrate.
01:09:46Stop staring at it and go.
01:09:48You know the Harts,
01:09:49they're vultures.
01:09:50They'll eat her alive.
01:09:51You told me we shouldn't meddle in other people's lives.
01:09:54Just before,
01:09:55her husband is off celebrating with someone else.
01:09:57This isn't meddling,
01:09:58it's rescuing.
01:10:06Mr. Carter won't be joining us today.
01:10:08Nonsense.
01:10:10What kind of husband
01:10:11misses his wife's birthday?
01:10:13Call him.
01:10:14Now.
01:10:17He's not coming.
01:10:18Because he's not really her husband.
01:10:21What are you talking about?
01:10:23She's a fraud.
01:10:24I heard everything.
01:10:26Carter only pretended to marry her
01:10:28to get his daughter to study abroad.
01:10:32It was fake.
01:10:33They played us for fools.
01:10:35You lied to us?
01:10:37I told you repeatedly I was in his wife.
01:10:39You wouldn't listen.
01:10:43Of course.
01:10:44Of course.
01:10:51Are you okay?
01:10:52Fine.
01:10:53Sophia Reed!
01:10:55Are you trying to humiliate me in front of everyone?
01:10:59Get on your knees
01:11:00and beg for my forgiveness.
01:11:03Or else,
01:11:05I'm divorcing your son.
01:11:07Then divorce me.
01:11:09What did you just say?
01:11:11You said divorce me.
01:11:13I did not.
01:11:15Are you crazy?
01:11:16She's nothing.
01:11:18She's a janitor.
01:11:20I understand we're going under.
01:11:22But we're still worth millions of dollars.
01:11:25Without me,
01:11:26you're nobody.
01:11:28That's what I've been saying to myself.
01:11:30I don't need you to be somebody.
01:11:33And I don't need to watch you abuse my mother
01:11:35to stay successful.
01:11:38She doesn't realize that.
01:11:40That's what it means to be a human being.
01:11:42Just to climb the social ladder.
01:11:44David.
01:11:45Mom,
01:11:46you gave me everything.
01:11:48What did they give you?
01:11:51You one time
01:11:52handmade Melissa a blanket
01:11:54because she mentioned it once
01:11:55that she liked it more.
01:11:56Or you took care of her mom in the hospital
01:11:58like she was your own blood.
01:12:00She did that because she is poor.
01:12:06Manual labor is all she has to offer.
01:12:08That's not labor.
01:12:09It's love.
01:12:11She gave you everything
01:12:12and you gave her nothing.
01:12:14I'll never let you treat her like that again.
01:12:17It's my mother.
01:12:20Mom, when I was dying,
01:12:21you took me to every hospital
01:12:23even though they said
01:12:24I couldn't be healed
01:12:25until you found a cure.
01:12:27You worked to the bone
01:12:28to get me through college.
01:12:29When I got married,
01:12:30you sold the house.
01:12:33And then,
01:12:34when you should have retired,
01:12:36you went to the city
01:12:37and cleaned floors for strangers.
01:12:40David,
01:12:42don't blame yourself.
01:12:43It was my fault.
01:12:45I wanted to give you more.
01:12:46I wanted to give you everything.
01:12:47Mom,
01:12:48you gave me everything.
01:12:52I will never let anyone
01:12:53treat you like this again.
01:12:55Yeah, yeah.
01:12:56Have your touching moments.
01:12:59David,
01:13:00once you divorce me,
01:13:01you'll never work in this industry
01:13:04again.
01:13:05Then fire me, Melissa.
01:13:06I don't care.
01:13:10Then fire me, Melissa.
01:13:12I don't care.
01:13:14I'm a hard worker.
01:13:15I can take care of my mother
01:13:16and myself.
01:13:21Anything is that easy
01:13:23and that simple.
01:13:25Why did you think
01:13:26I made you sign all those contracts?
01:13:29So I can put you in jail
01:13:31whenever I want to
01:13:32and whenever you leave me.
01:13:34You can't do this.
01:13:35Please, don't hurt my son.
01:13:37And what exactly
01:13:38can a cleaning lady do
01:13:40to stop me?
01:13:42What power do you have here?
01:13:43I'll do anything.
01:13:44Please, just leave him alone.
01:13:46Mom, no.
01:13:47No.
01:13:48I'd rather go to prison
01:13:49than watch you beg to these people.
01:13:58Now it's time
01:13:59for you to finally learn your place
01:14:01once and for all.
01:14:04I'm sorry.
01:14:13Are you okay?
01:14:20What are you, monsters?
01:14:21You should be begging her
01:14:22for forgiveness.
01:14:23Mr. Carter actually showed up.
01:14:25They're so finished.
01:14:27Mr. Carter,
01:14:28we understand now.
01:14:30Sophia isn't actually your wife.
01:14:33You're right.
01:14:34She isn't my wife.
01:14:37She's my soulmate.
01:14:42And you think you can treat her like this
01:14:43without any repercussions?
01:14:44This is clearly a family matter.
01:14:48We should probably go.
01:14:51Mr. Carter, please.
01:14:52We can make this right.
01:14:55Did they do this to you?
01:14:56This is nothing.
01:15:00Leo?
01:15:03Why don't you heat up this pot of coffee
01:15:05and return the favor?
01:15:12No, no, no.
01:15:13Oh, my God.
01:15:14No, please.
01:15:16Well, you're lucky she's a kind woman.
01:15:19Put the word out.
01:15:21No one in my company
01:15:22will do business with the Harts.
01:15:24Ever!
01:15:34Um,
01:15:36I think I'm just gonna go.
01:15:38I'll contact you later, Mom.
01:15:40David, you're leaving after everything
01:15:42you just said about seeing?
01:15:47Um,
01:15:48I'll leave you two to it.
01:15:50Okay.
01:15:54Ethan,
01:15:56I can't thank you enough for
01:15:58what you did for me back in there.
01:16:01I meant everything I said.
01:16:03Every single word.
01:16:07My first wife, she
01:16:10passed away a long time ago.
01:16:13And since then,
01:16:14it's just been Emily and I.
01:16:17But
01:16:19that marriage a year ago,
01:16:20it was just to give Emily peace of mind
01:16:22so she would go back to school.
01:16:25That first marriage, it
01:16:28it wasn't real.
01:16:31And I've already filed for divorce.
01:16:35Listen,
01:16:37Sophia,
01:16:39I'm not the kind of person
01:16:41who plays with people's hearts.
01:16:43What I feel for you is real.
01:16:45I want us to bow to life together.
01:16:48I just want to be completely open
01:16:50and honest with you.
01:16:52A year ago,
01:16:53I had heart surgery.
01:16:55And, Leo,
01:16:56please.
01:17:01Here are all my financial information.
01:17:03Everything you need to know about me.
01:17:05I guess the question now is
01:17:07do you feel the same?
01:17:09Ethan, I
01:17:11I just need more time.
01:17:13I still have some things I need to
01:17:15to sort out.
01:17:26My hand.
01:17:33Put your hands up, my wife!
01:17:35Using your authority?
01:17:36Threatening employees?
01:17:37Not leadership of the Towers.
01:17:39You're fired.
01:17:41What's your name?
01:17:46I trust you.
01:17:48This stage is yours.
01:17:51I'm sorry.
01:17:52About everything I said.
01:17:54I'm sorry.
01:18:16I'm here.
01:18:17Excuse me.
01:18:19I'm wearing a blue dress with white stripes.
01:18:22Where are you?
01:18:23I'm wearing a
01:18:24gray and blue suit with
01:18:26brown shoes.
01:18:28Where are you?
01:18:42It's you.
01:18:44It can't be you.
01:18:51It can't be you.
01:18:54It can't be you.
01:18:56Oh my God.
01:18:58I can't believe this.
01:18:59I can't either.
01:19:00If I would have known the woman I married
01:19:02was the same woman I fell in love with
01:19:04I would have never let you go.
01:19:07This is crazy.
01:19:09No more misunderstandings, okay?
01:19:11Just us.
01:19:12Together.
01:19:14Okay.
01:19:15For real?
01:19:16Yeah.
01:19:17Ethan, I thought I was coming here
01:19:19ending a marriage of convenience.
01:19:22But
01:19:23I've spent weeks just watching you.
01:19:26Seeing how kind you are to everyone
01:19:28and how much you love your daughter.
01:19:31It turns out
01:19:33I'm the luckiest woman in the whole world.
01:19:38Are you sure
01:19:39you can deal with me being a little
01:19:41egotistical and
01:19:42narcissistic?
01:19:43Yes, of course.
01:19:44They love birds.
01:19:45Some of us are actually trying to get divorced.
01:19:47Nobody wants to see all this.
01:19:52Well, we have a change of plans.
01:19:55We're going to renew
01:19:56our marriage certificate instead.
01:19:58Yes.
01:19:59Let's go.
01:20:11It's official.
01:20:16Sofia!
01:20:22What the heck is going on?
01:20:23You were going to get divorced.
01:20:25Who is this?
01:20:26It's a long story, but it turns out
01:20:28the guy I wanted to marry
01:20:30is the guy I wanted to divorce.
01:20:33And so
01:20:34I don't have to get divorced because
01:20:36divorce is off.
01:20:37I just want to marry him.
01:20:42I know you.
01:20:45Yeah, he's my boss.
01:20:47And
01:20:48my husband
01:20:49Ethan Carter.
01:20:51Have you two met?
01:20:54Lucy!
01:20:55He's the one.
01:20:56He's the guy who beat me up
01:20:57at the restaurant.
01:20:58What?
01:20:59Excuse me?
01:21:01Kevin.
01:21:03I am so sorry.
01:21:04It was a huge misunderstanding.
01:21:07I apologize.
01:21:09Apologize?
01:21:10You apologize?
01:21:11But you think that's enough?
01:21:13You can't go around
01:21:14just punching
01:21:15whoever you want,
01:21:16Mr. Big Shot CEO.
01:21:19You're absolutely right.
01:21:21And I want to make it up to you.
01:21:23Up to you both.
01:21:25So when Sophie and I
01:21:27move in together,
01:21:28I'm buying the villa next door.
01:21:32I'm buying the villa next door.
01:21:34For you.
01:21:37Wow.
01:21:38Wow.
01:21:39Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:21:40No, no.
01:21:41That's...
01:21:42I knew I liked this one
01:21:44from the start.
01:21:45He is a keeper.
01:21:47You know what?
01:21:48Don't even worry about my husband.
01:21:50He is a tough guy.
01:21:54Well?
01:21:56Welcome to the family.
01:21:59Come on up.
01:22:00Come on.
01:22:01You're in.
01:22:03We have tuna salad.
01:22:04Do you like tuna salad?
01:22:05Sure.
01:22:06Yep.
01:22:07I make a mean egg salad too.
01:22:08And a potato salad.
01:22:09Do you like that?
01:22:10I mean, you're a tall guy.
01:22:11You need a lot of food.
01:22:12He's a big boy.
01:22:15It's been a long day.
01:22:18It's been a long year.
01:22:22It's been a long life.
01:22:26I'm still loving you.
