00:00:00If this were a rom-com, how would it go?
00:00:05Well, since you're my boss, you'd
00:00:10obviously have to be a workaholic.
00:00:17And I'm an impressionable, underpaid assistant
00:00:22who just moved to the city.
00:00:23You force me to be your girlfriend
00:00:30to trick your parents.
00:00:32My father doesn't think that I'm serious
00:00:34enough to keep the division.
00:00:35And I hate every second of it.
00:00:39Are you enjoying the view?
00:00:41But then, helping you trick your parents
00:00:45lets me see you on a deeper level.
00:00:48And then what happens?
00:00:54Aw.
00:01:17Here, here.
00:01:18Oh!
00:01:23Don't get distracted now, mister.
00:01:26Stop talking.
00:01:27We're in a wolf.
00:01:28You had better be yawning from the back of an Uber, mister.
00:01:29What?
00:01:30Oh, fuck.
00:01:31Kate's engagement party.
00:01:32You were supposed to remind me.
00:01:33I left 14 sticky notes on your desk.
00:01:34God damn it, you cannot be late to this.
00:01:35Who's that big boy?
00:01:36Please tell me this woman doesn't think she's got a shot with you.
00:01:37Um, she's from Portugal.
00:01:38She knows this is just a fling.
00:01:39You're cheating on me, mister.
00:01:40You're cheating on me.
00:01:41You're cheating on me.
00:01:42You're cheating on me.
00:01:43You're cheating on me.
00:01:44You're cheating on me.
00:01:45You're cheating on me.
00:01:46You're cheating on me.
00:01:47You're cheating on me.
00:01:48You're cheating on me.
00:01:49She's from Portugal?
00:01:50She knows this is just a fling.
00:01:51You're cheating on me with someone from Portugal?
00:01:52On second thought, Grace, you're going to have to handle this for me.
00:01:53I'm calling the car.
00:01:54Shower off your bad decisions and get in.
00:01:55Okay.
00:01:56This was fun, Nadia.
00:01:57But it's time for you to go.
00:01:58You can see yourself out, can't you?
00:01:59I'm sorry.
00:02:00I'm sorry.
00:02:01I'm sorry.
00:02:02I'm sorry.
00:02:03I'm sorry.
00:02:04I'm sorry.
00:02:05I'm sorry.
00:02:06I'm sorry.
00:02:07I'm sorry.
00:02:08I'm sorry.
00:02:09I'm sorry.
00:02:10I'm sorry.
00:02:11I'm sorry.
00:02:12I'm sorry.
00:02:13I'm sorry.
00:02:14I'm sorry.
00:02:15I'm sorry.
00:02:16I'm sorry.
00:02:17I'm sorry.
00:02:18I'm sorry.
00:02:19I'm sorry.
00:02:20I'm sorry.
00:02:21Did you miss me?
00:02:22Oh, come on.
00:02:23I'm really sorry.
00:02:24I'm sorry.
00:02:25Really.
00:02:26I'm sorry.
00:02:29I'm sorry.
00:02:34I'm sorry.
00:02:37I'm sorry.
00:02:41Really.
00:02:44Really.
00:02:47Perfect.
00:02:53I mean, fine.
00:02:54Good.
00:02:55You look good.
00:02:57I'm just glad you made it.
00:03:00Shall we?
00:03:01Mm-hmm.
00:03:02You know I've only ever met your family on the phone?
00:03:05Yeah.
00:03:06You'll see why.
00:03:26Do you know how much shit my father is going to give me now that I'm the only single wolf?
00:03:30Brennan!
00:03:32Oh, God.
00:03:34Deal with that, please.
00:03:38Naomi, isn't it?
00:03:40Look, it's nothing personal, but Brennan...
00:03:42You!
00:03:44You're the little assistant that's been keeping us apart.
00:03:47Because what?
00:03:48You think you have a shot with him?
00:03:50Whore?
00:03:52No, our relationship is strictly professional.
00:03:54It's pathetic.
00:03:56Give it up, sweetheart.
00:03:57He's not interested.
00:03:59You're just the girl who gives him his coffee.
00:04:15Well, look who it is!
00:04:17Big bro?
00:04:18Kate.
00:04:20Congratulations on all of...this.
00:04:24It's great.
00:04:26I really do feel blessed.
00:04:28Marrying the love of my life soon.
00:04:30My division is killing it.
00:04:32Have you seen our projections?
00:04:35Yeah.
00:04:37You know, I could give you some pointers.
00:04:40I saw your numbers.
00:04:422% growth is not gonna cut it.
00:04:45Not when Dad is in slashing mode.
00:04:48Oh, you haven't heard?
00:04:51At next month's board meeting.
00:04:53If you're not caught up.
00:04:58Oh, but don't worry.
00:05:00I'm sure you'll find something.
00:05:04Maybe Mickey D's is hiring.
00:05:07You do look good in yellow.
00:05:13Now, if you don't mind.
00:05:15I have well-wishers to greet.
00:05:19Excuse me.
00:05:30Office. Now.
00:05:32But we just got here.
00:05:33Now.
00:05:36So, the whole division is just gone?
00:05:40No.
00:05:42Because you're gonna get an action plan on my desk by tomorrow.
00:05:45Tomorrow is Saturday.
00:05:48Mr. Wolf.
00:05:50I'm Howard Bernstein from the Bernstein Corporation.
00:05:54Now, I know we didn't have a meeting set up.
00:05:56But I have a potential business opportunity for you.
00:05:59Mr. Wolf.
00:06:01I really appreciate it.
00:06:03Mr. Wolf.
00:06:05I really think we should discuss this.
00:06:13Apologize to my assistant.
00:06:15Or the next meeting you take will be from a hospital bed.
00:06:17Oh, jeez.
00:06:19Okay. Alright.
00:06:21God, okay. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
00:06:26Now, you.
00:06:28Action plan.
00:06:296 p.m. tomorrow.
00:06:30Get the fuck out of here and leave my assistant alone.
00:06:34You, sir.
00:06:36Are a brute.
00:06:46Again?
00:06:47What is it?
00:06:48Miss Reynolds.
00:06:49I'm calling you as your mother's next of kin.
00:06:51Unfortunately, this call is to provide you with a time of death.
00:06:54Sorry.
00:06:56Excuse me. Time of death?
00:06:58Miss Reynolds.
00:06:59Your mother is dead.
00:07:10Grace.
00:07:12I need you to get a hold of Miller at the...
00:07:18What is it?
00:07:21My mother's dead.
00:07:26Grace, are you serious?
00:07:29Okay. Sorry. You said that we need...
00:07:32Miller? You need me to call Jordan Miller?
00:07:34Grace, don't worry about that. You need to go.
00:07:37No, no. I can't. No, I can't. We've got...
00:07:39I'm telling you as your boss.
00:07:41You need to go.
00:07:59Grace.
00:08:08Why are you going back to work?
00:08:10Didn't Brendan give you, like, a whole month off?
00:08:13Yeah, but...
00:08:15He needs me.
00:08:19Look, I know you're desperately in love with this man, but he...
00:08:23I am not.
00:08:29Okay. Fine.
00:08:32I love him.
00:08:34Are you happy?
00:08:37I've loved him for five fucking years, and he does not give a shit about me.
00:08:42I give him all of my waking hours.
00:08:45I get rid of his hookups.
00:08:49I even check the security cameras on my phone every day
00:08:52because he doesn't trust the alarm company.
00:08:55You don't want him taking advantage of you? Then don't let him.
00:08:59You deserve love, not dirty work.
00:09:07Two percent growth in this economy is impressive.
00:09:10Above industry standard.
00:09:12Kate's division saw eight percent last month alone.
00:09:15Well, why don't we ask the IRS about Kate's growth?
00:09:18One of these days, that behavior's going to come back to bite her in the ass.
00:09:21It's not just business.
00:09:24Kate's a serious person. She's settling down.
00:09:27Still in the tabloids. With floozies.
00:09:30Ever since Dulce...
00:09:32This has nothing to do with my personal life.
00:09:34I am more than capable of this.
00:09:36You want your division? Show me you're serious.
00:09:39Otherwise, I'll be making my recommendation to the board.
00:09:42I've got to go.
00:09:44Grace, what are you doing here?
00:09:46I thought you were still on bereavement.
00:09:51What is this?
00:09:53This is me.
00:09:56Quitting.
00:10:15No. Absolutely not.
00:10:18Excuse me?
00:10:20Look, if you still need more time to grieve, I understand...
00:10:23This is not about my mother.
00:10:27Brennan, I need a fresh start.
00:10:30I cannot keep going around in circles with you.
00:10:33These last five years, I have been torturing myself trying to get you to see that...
00:10:39It doesn't matter.
00:10:41I'm done.
00:10:49No. You're not.
00:10:51You're still under contract for another year.
00:10:53What kind of leader would I be if I just let my employees leave just because they wanted to...
00:10:58have a fresh start?
00:11:01Do you want to do this the hard way, Brennan?
00:11:04Okay.
00:11:07Okay. Fine.
00:11:14Hi. I need to speak with one of your attorneys, please.
00:11:18No. Any one of them is fine.
00:11:20Okay.
00:11:23What the fuck? What are you doing?
00:11:26Look.
00:11:28I'll allow you to quit under one condition.
00:11:32You become my girlfriend.
00:11:37Excuse me?
00:11:39Look. My father doesn't think that I'm serious enough to keep the division.
00:11:43He and my mom are coming this weekend to stay with me for Kate's wedding, and...
00:11:47I just... I need to prove to him that I'm done fucking around.
00:11:51Are you?
00:11:54Right. I didn't think so.
00:11:57So ask Naomi. Or Miss Portugal. Anyone.
00:12:01There's a line of girls a mile long who'd be happy to help you.
00:12:05Grace!
00:12:07You are the only one that I trust.
00:12:11Look. If you do this for me...
00:12:15I'll void your contract. And then you can go and do whatever it is that you want...
00:12:19with a glowing recommendation from myself.
00:12:23I can't do this anymore, Brennan.
00:12:26I can't keep doing your dirty work.
00:12:29I deserve better. I deserve to...
00:12:31Grace!
00:12:34I need you.
00:12:41It's just for the weekend. Right?
00:12:44Just for your parents.
00:12:49Fine.
00:12:51I'll stay for the weekend, and then I'm gone.
00:12:56What the hell?
00:12:58What was that?
00:13:00Practice.
00:13:15Brennan?
00:13:19Okay.
00:13:21Brennan?
00:13:24Okay. You can do this.
00:13:27You just have to get through this weekend, and then you can forget about Brennan Wolf for good.
00:13:35Hey, babe.
00:13:44Settling in?
00:13:47Mm-hmm.
00:13:50Feel free to use any open space.
00:13:52Just don't go to my side or get into any of my stuff.
00:13:56You don't seem to use your closet much.
00:14:02Are you enjoying the view?
00:14:09Wait.
00:14:17Here. Take this.
00:14:20What is this?
00:14:22Well, your wardrobe is passable as my assistant,
00:14:27but my girlfriend would never wear this.
00:14:31First thing in the morning, go and get yourself a new wardrobe.
00:14:34A hundred thousand max.
00:14:36A hundred thousand?
00:14:39No, I can't do that.
00:14:41Just think of it as a bonus.
00:14:47Fine.
00:14:49It's getting late. I think I'm going to turn in.
00:14:54Do you mind?
00:14:56Most long-term couples share a bedroom.
00:15:11Absolutely not.
00:15:13Look, my parents get in tomorrow.
00:15:15We have to make this thing look real, at least.
00:15:18Okay, then tomorrow you're welcome to the floor.
00:15:22Until then, find another bedroom.
00:15:24There's like 50 in this place.
00:15:26Fine. You win.
00:15:31But I'll be downstairs watching a movie if you can't sleep.
00:15:38How about a rom-com?
00:15:41Sure.
00:16:00I wanted you then, and I want you now.
00:16:08Then what are you waiting for?
00:16:27Well, I think that's my cue.
00:16:30Good night, Brennan.
00:16:31I think I'm falling in love with you.
00:16:37Brennan, no, you don't have to say anything, I just...
00:16:39I wanted you to know.
00:16:51Brennan?
00:17:01What are you doing here?
00:17:07So smooth.
00:17:38Thanks.
00:17:46Wow.
00:17:48You look... nice.
00:17:53Thanks.
00:18:02They're here. Prepare yourself.
00:18:06Brenny!
00:18:09Mother.
00:18:11Oh my goodness.
00:18:13This must be Grace.
00:18:16Brennan, she is absolutely darling.
00:18:22No wonder you've been keeping her all to yourself.
00:18:27Still, you might have mentioned her at some point.
00:18:32Oh, that'll be Kate. She's here for dinner.
00:18:36Oh, I didn't realize she'd be joining us.
00:18:40Oh, well I wanted to include everyone. The whole family.
00:18:49Sweetheart.
00:18:51Oh, come here, honey bunny.
00:18:56I still can't believe you finally tamed my brother.
00:19:01How'd you do it?
00:19:05I was in Soho.
00:19:07Oh, don't tell me you met in a bar.
00:19:11No, of course we didn't meet at a bar.
00:19:15Do you want to tell them, baby, or should I?
00:19:19Um, you tell it, sweetheart.
00:19:23I'll tell.
00:19:25I used to work for Cross & Co.
00:19:28I know, I know. Your biggest rivals.
00:19:31Brennan and I hated each other.
00:19:34Always stealing clients and competing.
00:19:37But I always thought he was cute.
00:19:41One day, we were pitching the same client.
00:19:44We were coming out of the building when I took a step out into the road without looking.
00:19:48I know, I know. It's a terrible habit that I have.
00:19:51A car came barreling down the road at me, and before I knew it,
00:19:55I felt a pair of strong arms pull me back.
00:19:58And when I opened my eyes, I found myself staring up at your son.
00:20:03How could I hate him after that?
00:20:06And as they say, the rest is history.
00:20:15And I've been saving her from traffic ever since.
00:20:20Wow.
00:20:22Oh my gosh.
00:20:24That sounds like something straight out of a movie.
00:20:28Doesn't it, honey?
00:20:30Almost too good to be true.
00:20:33I tell you to get serious,
00:20:36and then you pick some random girl up off the street,
00:20:39and suddenly you're in love?
00:20:42Samuel.
00:20:43You've always been this way.
00:20:45Always taking the easy way out.
00:20:47Content to settle in the middle.
00:20:50Coasting along on your name and your money.
00:20:53You have no idea what you're talking about.
00:20:57Brennan cares more about his company than anyone I've ever met.
00:21:01He's dedicated and conscientious, and he's...
00:21:08Sam.
00:21:13Dinner and a show.
00:21:15Lucky me.
00:21:17Thanks for the fun night.
00:21:31Brennan, I...
00:21:33I have some contracts to go over.
00:21:35Excuse me.
00:21:48Oh, Mrs. Wolfe.
00:21:50I'm so sorry.
00:21:52I don't know what came over me.
00:21:54I was completely out of line, and I want to apologize.
00:21:57Grace, I love my husband,
00:22:00but he's always been too hard on Brennan.
00:22:03Thank you so much for defending him.
00:22:08I can tell you really do care for him.
00:22:13I do.
00:22:15I do.
00:22:27Nightcap?
00:22:33I thought you were mad at me.
00:22:34No, I...
00:22:39I just thank you for standing up for me tonight.
00:22:46I don't think it really helped our cause.
00:22:50I think your dad hates me.
00:22:54But my mom loves you, and so it counts as out.
00:22:59You were really good. I'm sure they'll buy it.
00:23:06How are you so good at this?
00:23:09At what?
00:23:11At pretending to be in love.
00:23:16Well...
00:23:19My mom and I used to watch rom-coms.
00:23:22It was kind of our thing.
00:23:25I remember.
00:23:27She would always tell me,
00:23:29don't kid yourself.
00:23:31Real guys will always let you down,
00:23:33but rom-com guys are forever.
00:23:38Anyway, I guess what I meant was...
00:23:43I may not be good at real love,
00:23:46but I'm great at rom-coms.
00:23:51Plus, I mean, some of that is true.
00:23:53You are always saving me from traffic.
00:24:00Grace, you must really miss your mom.
00:24:06I'm so sorry.
00:24:12Yeah.
00:24:15It's hard to lose the one person in the world
00:24:19who makes it all make sense.
00:24:25Yeah.
00:24:27Trust me. I get it.
00:24:31You lost someone?
00:24:33I thought I knew everything about you.
00:24:38Not everything.
00:24:41Do you...
00:24:43Do you want to talk about it?
00:24:50I...
00:24:54I don't know if I can.
00:24:57It's...
00:24:58It's okay.
00:25:00You can tell me.
00:25:11Maybe...
00:25:13Maybe some other time.
00:25:17So...
00:25:20If this were a rom-com,
00:25:23how would it go?
00:25:27It's very funny.
00:25:29No, I'm actually being serious.
00:25:36Okay.
00:25:38Okay.
00:25:41Well...
00:25:43Since you're my boss,
00:25:46you'd obviously have to be a workaholic.
00:25:50And I'm an impressionable underpaid assistant
00:25:54who just moved to the city.
00:25:56I'm not seeing the fiction there.
00:26:00So, you force me to be your girlfriend
00:26:04to trick your parents.
00:26:06And I hate every second of it.
00:26:09You know, being I'm a virgin
00:26:11who's never had a boyfriend and all.
00:26:13A virgin?
00:26:15In the story, mister.
00:26:20But then,
00:26:22helping you trick your parents
00:26:25lets me see you on a deeper level.
00:26:29And my carefree persona
00:26:32helps you see the world in color for the first time.
00:26:36And then what?
00:26:40Well...
00:26:42Then, one night, we're on the sofa
00:26:46planning the next steps in our relationship.
00:26:50Then I lean in,
00:26:53and you lean in,
00:26:56and...
00:26:58And then...
00:27:02And then...
00:27:25So, uh...
00:27:27Something like that?
00:27:29Huh?
00:27:31If we're going to convince my parents,
00:27:33we'll have to kiss in front of them,
00:27:35so something like that would work, right?
00:27:38Oh, yeah. Yeah.
00:27:40Yeah, that's...
00:27:42That's fine.
00:27:44Good. Yeah.
00:27:46Um...
00:27:48Well, um...
00:27:50We should probably turn in.
00:27:52Sure.
00:28:01Okay.
00:28:20You are not going to be able to sleep like that.
00:28:24I'll be fine.
00:28:27Come on.
00:28:29This bed is pretty big.
00:28:34Plus, you need to be well-rested to keep up the ruse, right?
00:28:40Just take the other side of the bed.
00:28:44Okay.
00:28:57Good night.
00:28:59Good night.
00:29:26Good night.
00:29:49Grace.
00:29:56Grace.
00:30:27Morning.
00:30:30Brennan.
00:30:33We need to talk.
00:30:37I owe you an apology, son.
00:30:40It, uh...
00:30:42pains me greatly to see that you're not like Kate, you know?
00:30:46Hmm. Great apology so far.
00:30:49But you're still my son,
00:30:51and I care about you deeply.
00:30:55So what do you know about this Grace?
00:31:00What do you mean?
00:31:02I've seen her type before.
00:31:04They appear from the woodwork
00:31:07and attach themselves to great families.
00:31:10They're like leeches.
00:31:12I do not want to see
00:31:15my company
00:31:17fall into the hands of some gold digger.
00:31:21How dare you talk about Grace like that?
00:31:24You have no idea what she's done for this company.
00:31:27For me. You have no idea what she's done for me.
00:31:30I couldn't do this without her.
00:31:32Without who?
00:31:37I'll be going.
00:31:39But think about what I said.
00:31:51What was that all about?
00:31:53We have to step up our game.
00:31:55Look, my father's still suspicious of you.
00:31:58What the fuck are we gonna do? I thought this was gonna work.
00:32:01Hey. It's okay.
00:32:04We'll figure this out.
00:32:06You said you think your mom likes me, right?
00:32:09Maybe we can convince your mom to talk to him and he'll come around.
00:32:15You know, that's not a bad idea.
00:32:21Ugh.
00:32:27Ugh.
00:32:29What is wrong with this?
00:32:43You'd like it with cinnamon.
00:32:55So.
00:32:57About last night.
00:33:03Well, aren't you two just the cutest?
00:33:07Mom.
00:33:09I didn't see you come in.
00:33:11Sorry to interrupt you two lovebirds, but
00:33:13I was just on my way to pick out the flowers for the reception.
00:33:17Poor Kate.
00:33:18She's just so busy with her work that she has not any time to do wedding prep.
00:33:24So, would you like to come with me?
00:33:27Oh, she'd love to.
00:33:29Oh, I don't want to intrude.
00:33:31You too, mister.
00:33:32Mom, but I have to work.
00:33:34Oh, please.
00:33:35The last thing this family needs is another workaholic.
00:33:39Shall we?
00:33:42Oh, hey.
00:33:44I love these flowers.
00:33:46I think you're going to be so excited about them.
00:33:48I know, I'm really excited.
00:33:49It's such a pretty city.
00:33:50Thanks for taking me along, by the way.
00:33:51Grace!
00:33:57Every time.
00:34:11Mom.
00:34:23Mom.
00:34:25Uh, do you think you could maybe talk to Dad for us?
00:34:29You know, get him to ease up on Grace a bit.
00:34:35Of course, darling.
00:34:37Grace is an absolute angel.
00:34:39And he needs to stop harping on her.
00:34:43Look at my son.
00:34:45Oh, protect him.
00:34:47I love it.
00:34:51What about these?
00:34:54I don't know.
00:34:56Oh, come on.
00:34:58Yellow is bright and fun.
00:35:04A rose for my rose.
00:35:09Yellow roses symbolize friendship.
00:35:12White roses, on the other hand, symbolize purity and loyalty.
00:35:17Brennan!
00:35:20What a coincidence.
00:35:23Jackie, why don't we go check out the lilies?
00:35:26Yeah, let's go.
00:35:33I need to talk to you.
00:35:35What are you doing here?
00:35:37I miss you, silly.
00:35:39And I know you miss me.
00:35:41Look, didn't Grace already tell you?
00:35:43Look, we're not a thing.
00:35:45You mean your bitch-ass assistant?
00:35:48You let her speak for you?
00:35:50Keep your voice down.
00:35:52Why are you defending her?
00:35:57Are you...
00:35:59Are you interested in her?
00:36:01No, that would be completely unprofessional.
00:36:06You know what? No, you need to leave. Now.
00:36:25Think happy and rich.
00:36:27Beautiful.
00:36:29Alright, one more.
00:36:31Big smiles. Big, big smiles.
00:36:33Well, that'll never happen.
00:36:35What about a smirk?
00:36:37He can do a smirk.
00:36:44Alright.
00:36:46And how about a solo picture of a brother and girlfriend?
00:36:49Let's go.
00:37:01Uh, you two are dating?
00:37:05Just take the picture.
00:37:07Come on, Brendan. Give her a kiss.
00:37:11Seriously?
00:37:13A real kiss.
00:37:40Real enough?
00:38:11Brendan, what the hell was that?
00:38:14Look, Grace, we've already talked about this.
00:38:16We have to make this look real.
00:38:18I mean, if I hadn't kissed you, it wouldn't...
00:38:19No, I mean you running away from me like I bit you.
00:38:22Come on, you said you were gonna start pulling your weight.
00:38:24You're gonna blow this whole thing.
00:38:27Blow what whole thing?
00:38:29Oh, nothing. Just the photo shoot.
00:38:32Brendan, you've got a little carried away.
00:38:35What's that?
00:38:37Family tradition.
00:38:39No. Kate.
00:38:41Consider it an early wedding present to me.
00:38:44Me and Alec versus you guys.
00:38:47Come on.
00:38:49We never got to play with Dulce.
00:38:52Who's Dulce?
00:38:56You haven't told her?
00:38:58Look, that's none of your business, Kate.
00:39:02Fine.
00:39:04Game on.
00:39:07All right. It's easy.
00:39:09Hers means you have to answer questions about Brendan.
00:39:12His means he has to answer questions about you.
00:39:15Each correct answer gets a point.
00:39:17Whoever gets the most points wins.
00:39:19Are you ready to lose?
00:39:24How bad can it be?
00:39:26It's not like we're strangers.
00:39:28Let's start with a question for the boys.
00:39:30All right, first question.
00:39:32What is your partner's go-to lunch?
00:39:35Go to lunch.
00:39:48Okay.
00:39:50And three, two, one, flip.
00:39:57Oh, come on.
00:39:59The amount of times I picked that sandwich up for you at work.
00:40:03When I was surprising you.
00:40:06Great.
00:40:08Everybody gets a point.
00:40:10Grace, you pull.
00:40:12Another boys' question.
00:40:20When did your partner lose their virginity?
00:40:23Three, two, one, flip.
00:40:28Okay, this is scary.
00:40:30You know me too well.
00:40:32That's the idea, babe.
00:40:40Alec, baby, it's you.
00:40:42Now it's about the girlies.
00:40:46What is your partner's go-to lunch?
00:40:48Go to lunch.
00:40:50The girlies.
00:40:52What's your partner's favorite band?
00:41:05Three, two, one, flip.
00:41:11Katy Perry?
00:41:13What the hell is Blood Orange Grove?
00:41:21Brennan, you're up.
00:41:24All right.
00:41:26Last question.
00:41:28What is your partner's go-to lunch?
00:41:30Go to lunch.
00:41:32When did your partner lose their virginity?
00:41:34Three, two, one, flip.
00:41:36Oh, come on.
00:41:38The amount of times I picked that sandwich up for you at work.
00:41:40When did your partner lose their virginity?
00:41:42Go to lunch.
00:41:44The girlies.
00:41:46What's your partner's go-to lunch?
00:41:48Go to lunch.
00:41:50All right.
00:41:52Last question.
00:41:56What is your partner's favorite movie genre?
00:42:04And he gets a point.
00:42:06Finally.
00:42:08His first one.
00:42:10That makes 16 for the Lovebirds
00:42:12and 37 for me and Alec.
00:42:16Match made in heaven, baby.
00:42:23You remember you quit, right?
00:42:25You don't have to keep working for me.
00:42:27Yeah, well,
00:42:29who else is going to check the security cameras for you?
00:42:39Grace, I know you're upset.
00:42:43But it's just a stupid game.
00:42:45It's not worth it.
00:42:48I know you're upset.
00:42:50But it's just a stupid game.
00:42:52Right?
00:42:54It doesn't matter.
00:42:56I think I'm going to turn in.
00:42:58Night.
00:43:00No, Grace.
00:43:02Look, I'm trying here.
00:43:05Okay?
00:43:07You can't just shut me out.
00:43:09Talk to me.
00:43:11There's nothing to say, Brennan.
00:43:14Look, you're right.
00:43:16None of this matters.
00:43:20After this weekend,
00:43:22we'll go our separate ways and back to reality.
00:43:26Speaking of,
00:43:28I drafted a list of replacement assistants.
00:43:30It should be in your email.
00:43:34Now, if you'll excuse me.
00:43:37Grace.
00:43:46Okay.
00:44:17I'm sure he's not hiding anything.
00:44:20Maybe she's just an old friend or something.
00:44:23But it's not just that.
00:44:26The other day, we were playing this couples game,
00:44:29and he didn't know anything about me.
00:44:32I've made his life perfect for years,
00:44:35and he couldn't even bother to learn my favorite band.
00:44:38I know it's hard, but clearly he cares about you.
00:44:41I mean, he brought you home to meet his parents.
00:44:43I'm sure he didn't do that with all the other girls.
00:44:49I need to tell you something.
00:45:13What?
00:45:21I thought maybe he was starting to fall for me.
00:45:24For real.
00:45:27I mean, we kissed a couple of times.
00:45:30And the other morning, I woke up, and he was holding me.
00:45:34I guess I was just deluding myself,
00:45:37like Naomi and all the others.
00:45:40I said I was done with this.
00:45:43But then he roped me in,
00:45:46and like a fucking idiot, I let him pull me right back in.
00:45:49It's like I haven't learned anything.
00:45:52Grace, you're not an idiot.
00:45:55You're just a romantic, and that's different.
00:45:59I don't know.
00:46:02Maybe my mother was right.
00:46:05Real men always let you down.
00:46:08I'm not going to get my hopes up.
00:46:10I just have to get through the weekend,
00:46:13and then I can put Brennan Wolfe behind me.
00:46:16Cheers.
00:46:37Come in.
00:46:40It's nice to see you in your office,
00:46:43just like the good old days.
00:46:46Glad you finally saw the light, lover.
00:47:02Brennan?
00:47:05Baby?
00:47:07Oh, I'm right here.
00:47:10No, this was a mistake.
00:47:13You need to go.
00:47:16No, the only mistake was you letting me go.
00:47:23No, you need to go.
00:47:26Get out.
00:47:28What the fuck, Brennan?
00:47:30Go!
00:47:37Go.
00:47:53Brenny, is that you?
00:47:56Mom, what are you doing up?
00:47:59I have something for you.
00:48:02I wanted to give it to you earlier,
00:48:04but I just wanted to let you know how happy I am
00:48:07that you and Grace have found each other.
00:48:10It's just been so long since Dulcy,
00:48:13and I was beginning to worry you'd never find it again.
00:48:17Mom, I...
00:48:20It's okay. You deserve to feel love again.
00:48:24And I know now might not be the right time,
00:48:27but I wanted to give you this.
00:48:35Your father proposed to me with it,
00:48:38and when the time comes,
00:48:41maybe you could propose to Grace with it.
00:48:48It just, it feels so much like last time.
00:48:52Mom, what if that means that it's all going to fall apart again?
00:48:56It's okay, sweetie.
00:48:59That feeling is fear.
00:49:01That feeling is fear.
00:49:04And all that means is that it's real.
00:49:21You said you needed to see me?
00:49:25Now who needs reminding that I quit?
00:49:28Look, there's something I want to tell you.
00:49:31I, uh...
00:49:34I want you to be my girlfriend.
00:49:38It feels like we've covered this.
00:49:41No, I mean...
00:49:44Like, for real, this time.
00:49:47What did you just say?
00:49:50I've been an idiot.
00:49:53I've taken you for granted,
00:49:55and these last few days have made me realize
00:49:57I can't live without you.
00:49:58Rather, I don't want to.
00:50:03I want to make us official.
00:50:07What do you say?
00:50:16Wait.
00:50:25If I could live anywhere in the world
00:50:28where would I live?
00:50:31What? I...
00:50:33Who's my hero?
00:50:36I...
00:50:38What's my mother's name?
00:50:40What's my favorite childhood memory?
00:50:42What are my favorite hobbies?
00:50:45Where am I from?
00:50:48You say you can't live without me, Brennan?
00:50:51No, you can't live without what I do for you.
00:50:54Besides the fact that I make your life easier,
00:50:56you don't know anything about me.
00:51:05I know that you're kind.
00:51:11I know that you're not afraid to
00:51:14stand up for people you care about.
00:51:17That you love your mom.
00:51:20That you're an extremely hard worker.
00:51:23That you snore.
00:51:30I know that you make me feel safe,
00:51:33and happy, and good.
00:51:36And if you give me a chance,
00:51:39I'll learn the rest.
00:51:43Please.
00:51:45Grace.
00:51:54Please.
00:52:20Here.
00:52:21It's never stopped you before.
00:52:34Hey there, beautiful.
00:52:48You look like you've been up all night.
00:52:52And whose fault is that?
00:52:54Mine.
00:53:02Look at me.
00:53:10Okay.
00:53:12Hold still there, Mr. Wolf.
00:53:15This will make you look awake.
00:53:17There.
00:53:22Hmm.
00:53:27Wow.
00:53:31You are a miracle worker.
00:53:35What else is new?
00:53:51You know, when I get married,
00:53:53I'm not inviting any of these people.
00:53:56In fact, I'm not inviting anyone at all.
00:53:58Vegas elopement.
00:54:01Elvis impersonator.
00:54:03Reception at the casino.
00:54:05It works.
00:54:07It's very romantic.
00:54:10Yeah.
00:54:12What about you?
00:54:15I don't know.
00:54:17Oh, come on.
00:54:18Don't tell me you haven't thought about it.
00:54:20I mean, doesn't every single one of those rom-coms
00:54:22have some sort of cliché fairytale wedding?
00:54:27I guess I...
00:54:29I never imagined it because
00:54:31I've never been in love before.
00:54:34All the guys I've been with haven't...
00:54:37Something hasn't felt right.
00:54:40It's like
00:54:41I've been waiting for someone.
00:54:48What about you?
00:54:51What about me?
00:54:53Have you ever been in love?
00:54:58Excuse me.
00:55:00Do you mind if I borrow my son for a moment?
00:55:05Be my guest.
00:55:21Time to pay the piper, bro.
00:55:25What the fuck is this?
00:55:28Kate.
00:55:30The other night,
00:55:32I went down to get a drink of water
00:55:35and that's when I heard
00:55:37your so-called girlfriend
00:55:38saying something very interesting to her little friend.
00:55:41She's not your girlfriend after all, is she?
00:55:44Look, Dad, I don't know what you...
00:55:46No more of your lies, son.
00:55:48And do not ask your mother to intervene.
00:55:51I knew this was wrong from the get-go.
00:55:53Now I have proof.
00:55:55I'll be meeting with the board on Monday morning
00:55:58and then you'll begin the process
00:56:00of transferring your division's assets over to...
00:56:03Wait!
00:56:05Look,
00:56:06I don't know what Kate heard
00:56:08or thinks she heard,
00:56:10but what Grace and I have is real.
00:56:13I swear.
00:56:14I swear.
00:56:17I'll prove it.
00:56:18Excuse me, everyone.
00:56:44Excuse me, may I please just have a moment?
00:56:47May I please just have a moment of your time?
00:56:50And will my lovely girlfriend,
00:56:53Grace Reynolds, please join me?
00:57:09Grace, I've known you for a very long time.
00:57:14Honestly, it feels like forever.
00:57:16And recently, something's changed
00:57:19and I've realized just how deep my love for you runs.
00:57:23And now I'd like to formalize that love.
00:57:39My father gave my mother this ring 30 years ago.
00:57:42And through all the hardships they've endured,
00:57:44this ring has remained a symbol of their enduring love.
00:57:48Yesterday, my mother gave it to me.
00:57:50And today, I'd like to give it to you.
00:57:54Grace Reynolds, will you do me the honors
00:57:56of making me the happiest man on Earth
00:58:00and allow me to be your husband?
00:58:14Yes, I'll marry you.
00:58:17I need to talk to you.
00:58:46Grace, I know, I know.
00:58:49But my father and Kate, they were circling me and...
00:58:51You'll resolve my contract today.
00:58:54I'll stay with you publicly
00:58:56until your father agrees to leave your division alone.
00:58:58But then I'm gone.
00:59:00And I never want to see you again.
00:59:04Why?
00:59:16Grace, this was a mistake.
00:59:18But I put a stop to it.
00:59:20I promise, nothing happened.
00:59:22Why should I believe you?
00:59:24I mean, it's on the tape.
00:59:26Watch it.
00:59:28Grace, you've been my assistant for five years.
00:59:35You know me.
00:59:37You know everything about me.
00:59:40Not everything.
00:59:42What's that supposed to mean?
00:59:44Who's Dulcy?
00:59:47This is personal.
00:59:50Well, you just asked me to marry you,
00:59:53What's yours is mine, right, honey?
00:59:58Who is she?
01:00:03Nothing to say.
01:00:07Well, it doesn't matter.
01:00:09Because I'm done.
01:00:24Grace?
01:00:26Oh, thank God.
01:00:29What is this?
01:00:31Where am I?
01:00:34What's wrong with me?
01:00:37Grace, just calm down, okay?
01:00:40You're going to hurt yourself.
01:00:42You...
01:00:44You're going to hurt yourself.
01:00:46You're going to hurt yourself.
01:00:48You're going to hurt yourself.
01:00:50Calm down, okay?
01:00:51You're going to hurt yourself.
01:00:53You were hit by a car.
01:00:56What?
01:00:58You've got a spinal injury.
01:01:00And...
01:01:01Well, you're suffering from paralysis.
01:01:03But it's only temporary.
01:01:05The doctor said that you'll walk again, you just...
01:01:07Your body needs time to recover.
01:01:10I should be in a hospital.
01:01:13Grace, we have the very best doctors on retainer.
01:01:17Can Grace and I just have a moment, please?
01:01:20Of course.
01:01:21But if you need anything, just call.
01:01:24I'll be in the next room.
01:01:34Grace, when I saw you outside on the street, I was so fucking scared.
01:01:38I thought I'd lost you.
01:01:40Lost your little prop, you mean?
01:01:43How could you say that?
01:01:45Do you really think I don't care about you?
01:01:48Brennan, if your father wasn't in the picture, would you have even asked me out?
01:01:56I...
01:01:57Yeah.
01:01:59I didn't think so.
01:02:01You can keep trying to trick yourself into thinking that you care about me,
01:02:04but this whole time you were just playing pretend.
01:02:08I'll stay here until I can walk again, but...
01:02:11We're over.
01:02:13Grace, I...
01:02:21Okay.
01:02:22Whatever you want.
01:02:24Okay.
01:02:42That's not true.
01:02:43Angela, I love you.
01:02:47Love isn't a single tender thought about me in the middle of the night, Xavier.
01:02:52I know that.
01:02:59I thought you might be hungry.
01:03:04I made lasagna.
01:03:06Belle told me it was your favorite.
01:03:09Can I at least leave it by your bed?
01:03:14Okay.
01:03:22Fuck.
01:03:27Fuck.
01:03:30Let me see it, let me see it.
01:03:32Alright, you're okay, but...
01:03:35It's just cramping because you've been in the bed so long.
01:03:37It just needs to be massaged.
01:03:41Just...
01:03:42Just fucking do it.
01:03:44Okay.
01:03:47Breathe.
01:03:48Breathe into it.
01:03:50Right there.
01:03:53Breathe.
01:03:54Steady.
01:03:57Calm, slow it down.
01:04:00Breathe.
01:04:11You can stop.
01:04:18Of course.
01:04:21Yeah.
01:04:23You're good at that.
01:04:26Yeah.
01:04:28I've got quite a bit of experience.
01:04:34You know, I think it's time I told you about Dulce.
01:04:46She was my fiancée.
01:04:50You were engaged?
01:04:53Yeah.
01:04:56We were young.
01:04:59She was a free spirit.
01:05:01In love with the world.
01:05:03And I admired that.
01:05:05Honestly, I wanted to be just like her.
01:05:10I asked her to marry me after two weeks.
01:05:13And...
01:05:19A month after the engagement, we got the diagnosis.
01:05:27And six months later, I buried her.
01:05:32We never got to walk down the aisle.
01:05:35I'm so sorry, Brennan.
01:05:38So I just, I pushed down my emotions and drowned myself in girlfriends and one night stands, but nothing worked.
01:05:49And I thought, if I fell in love again, that something terrible would happen.
01:05:55And I was right.
01:06:00Are you saying...
01:06:03Are you saying you love me?
01:06:05Grace.
01:06:08How could I not love you?
01:06:16Look, I know I don't deserve your forgiveness.
01:06:21Or your love.
01:06:23But please, let me take care of you like you've taken care of me for so long.
01:06:32Just until you recover.
01:06:34Then you can go.
01:06:42Fuck, Belle, that hurts.
01:06:44That's good.
01:06:46Dr. Hurt says that's a good sign.
01:06:48It means you're getting your feeling back.
01:07:01Hey.
01:07:03Hey, you know what you're gonna tell him?
01:07:06I think he means what he said.
01:07:09But it took him forever to be honest and he used me for so long.
01:07:15I don't know.
01:07:17Maybe my mom was right.
01:07:20Men aren't like in the rom-coms.
01:07:22Of course they're not.
01:07:24Girl, those guys are made up.
01:07:27That's like a dude getting mad at you for not being like the girls in the pronouns.
01:07:31It's not the same.
01:07:33You know, he admitted he was wrong and now he's trying to make it better.
01:07:38In my book, that's worth a shot.
01:07:41Alright, let's do the other side.
01:07:57Yeah, of course.
01:08:08Doc told me you're doing really well.
01:08:11Said you stood up today.
01:08:13Yeah, for a whole two seconds.
01:08:16Still.
01:08:18That's amazing.
01:08:22Grace, I'm so proud of you.
01:08:25I guess that means that you'll be leaving soon.
01:08:29Yeah, I guess.
01:08:35Well, before you go to bed, wanna watch a rom-com?
01:08:40Heard there's a new one on Netflix.
01:08:45No, I'm okay.
01:08:47I'm feeling a bit tired.
01:08:49You wanna read a book?
01:08:51You wanna read a book?
01:08:53I actually went ahead and picked you up a copy of Pride and Prejudice, just in case.
01:08:58Or I could read it to you, if you want.
01:09:03Actually, I already started.
01:09:06I'm not sure I understand it, because Darcy's kind of a dick.
01:09:14He gets better.
01:09:16Got it.
01:09:18No, I'm okay.
01:09:24Wanna listen to some music before you go to bed?
01:09:46Ever heard of those Blood Orange Grove guys?
01:09:51I hear they're pretty good.
01:10:16Grace, I'm so sorry, but my family is here.
01:10:20I swear I had no idea they were coming.
01:10:22But I'll tell them to leave me.
01:10:24It's okay.
01:10:26No, you're still recovering.
01:10:29And I still haven't told them that we're not together anymore.
01:10:33But I was just gonna tell them we broke up as soon as you left.
01:10:39Brennan, it's okay.
01:10:42I can do this.
01:10:43I can do this.
01:10:46Well, we wanted to come earlier, but somebody made us wait until you were better.
01:10:56Well, I'm really glad that you're all here.
01:11:03Oh, um, Grace.
01:11:06And Brennan.
01:11:08I'd like to apologize for the way I behaved.
01:11:12I thought I was acting in the best interest of my son.
01:11:15And I see now that I was wrong.
01:11:20So I would like to give this union my full blessing.
01:11:26No.
01:11:28Stop.
01:11:30Mom, Dad, there's something I need to tell you.
01:11:37Brennan, what are you doing?
01:11:41Grace isn't my fiancé.
01:11:50She was my assistant.
01:11:54She tried to quit, but I wouldn't let her.
01:11:58In fact, I blackmailed her into pretending to be my girlfriend so that you would keep my division open.
01:12:11Grace is a beautiful, lovely, kind, and sweet woman.
01:12:21And I used her to further my own goals.
01:12:26Even now, she's still helping me when I almost got her killed.
01:12:32Because that's just who she is.
01:12:35Grace, I won't let you continue lying for me anymore.
01:12:45Everything you said is true. I'm an unserious playboy.
01:12:50But this playboy wants to do better.
01:12:53So if you have to close my division, I guess I understand.
01:13:01Sam, don't.
01:13:06I didn't even have to beat you. You did it for me.
01:13:14That's enough, Kate. Go wait in the car.
01:13:18Mom?
01:13:32I am so proud of you. I mean it.
01:13:36It was so brave of you to tell the truth.
01:13:39But I could tell you were keeping something from us.
01:13:42But I could also see that you and Grace really care for each other.
01:13:47And that it wasn't a lie, even when you thought it was.
01:13:54Now, I'll let you two talk this through.
01:13:58Now, I'll let you two talk this through.
01:14:10Brennan.
01:14:13Grace, I understand if you just want to go home now.
01:14:18I can send your stuff to your apartment.
01:14:21But don't worry, I won't be coming with it.
01:14:24Brennan.
01:14:27I'm not leaving.
01:14:30You're not?
01:14:34My whole life, I thought if a guy couldn't measure up to the Nora Ephron or Nancy Meyers heroes, he wasn't worth it.
01:14:45But maybe it's good that you're not this perfect guy.
01:14:50Because I'm not a porn star.
01:14:53What?
01:14:57It sounded better when Belle said it.
01:15:03I guess maybe fantasies are fantasies for a reason.
01:15:09And after all of this, I realized I don't want a fairy tale.
01:15:16I want real.
01:15:19I want you.
01:15:22I want to give us a chance.
01:15:27And one day, a long, long time into the future, maybe you can give this back to me.
01:15:41Not today.
01:15:43Clear?
01:15:57Crystal.
01:16:08I can't believe you told your parents everything.
01:16:12Sam is definitely going to shut down your division now.
01:16:17What are you going to do?
01:16:22I think I have an idea.
01:16:27I think I have an idea.
