00:00:00If this were a rom-com, how would it go?

00:00:05Well, since you're my boss, you'd obviously have to be a workaholic.

00:00:18And I'm an impressionable underpaid assistant who just moved to the city.

00:00:25You force me to be your girlfriend to trick your parents.

00:00:32My father doesn't think that I'm serious enough to keep the division.

00:00:36And I hate every second of it.

00:00:39Are you enjoying the view?

00:00:42But then, helping you trick your parents lets me see you on a deeper level.

00:00:48And then what happens?

00:01:25Don't get distracted now, mister.

00:01:27Shh, stop talking.

00:01:31You had better be yawning from the back of an Uber, mister.

00:01:34What?

00:01:35Oh, fuck.

00:01:36Kate's engaged to a party.

00:01:37You were supposed to remind me.

00:01:39I left 14 sticky notes on your desk.

00:01:42God damn it, you cannot be late to this.

00:01:44Who's that big boy?

00:01:46Please tell me this woman doesn't think she's got a shot with you.

00:01:49Um, she's from Portugal.

00:01:51She knows this is just a fling.

00:01:52You're cheating on me with someone from Portugal?

00:01:54On second thought, Grace, you're going to have to handle this for me.

00:01:58I'm calling the car.

00:02:00Shower off your bad decisions and get in.

00:02:03Okay.

00:02:08This was fun, Nadia.

00:02:10But it's time for you to go.

00:02:12You can see yourself out, can't you?

00:02:22Hello?

00:02:28Whoa!

00:02:34You know, you really should start watching where you're going.

00:02:37Or one of these days you're going to end up smeared across the hood of some Mercedes.

00:02:40So nice to see you too.

00:02:46Oh, how do I look?

00:02:52Perfect.

00:02:53I mean, fine.

00:02:55Good.

00:02:56You look good.

00:02:58I'm just glad you made it.

00:03:01Shall we?

00:03:02Mm-hmm.

00:03:03You know I've only ever met your family on the phone?

00:03:06Yeah, you'll see why.

00:03:23Oh.

00:03:26Do you know how much shit my father's 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—

00:03:42No, you.

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?

00:04:19Kate.

00:04:21Congratulations on all of this.

00:04:24It's great.

00:04:26I really do feel blessed.

00:04:28I'm marrying the love of my life soon.

00:04:31My division is killing it.

00:04:33Have you seen our projections?

00:04:35Yeah.

00:04:37You know, I could give you some pointers.

00:04:41I saw your numbers.

00:04:43Two percent growth is not going to cut it.

00:04:46Not when Dad is in slashing mode.

00:04:50Oh, you haven't heard?

00:04:52At next month's board meeting.

00:04:54If you're not caught up.

00:04:59Oh, but don't worry.

00:05:01I'm sure you'll find something.

00:05:05Maybe Mickey D's is hiring.

00:05:08You do look good in yellow.

00:05:14Now, if you don't mind, I have well-wishers to greet.

00:05:20Excuse me.

00:05:31Office, now.

00:05:33But we just got here.

00:05:34Now.

00:05:40So, the whole division is just gone?

00:05:44No, because you're going to get an action plan on my desk by tomorrow.

00:05:48Tomorrow is Saturday.

00:05:52Mr. Wolf.

00:05:54I'm Howard Bernstein from the Bernstein Corporation.

00:05:58Now, I know we didn't have a meeting set up,

00:06:00but I have a potential business opportunity for you.

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.

00:06:18Oh, jeez.

00:06:20Okay, all right.

00:06:22God, okay, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

00:06:27Now, you.

00:06:29Action plan, 6 p.m. tomorrow,

00:06:31and you get the fuck out of here and leave my assistant alone.

00:06:35You, sir, are a brute.

00:06:46Again?

00:06:48What is it?

00:06:49Ms. Reynolds, I'm calling you as your mother's next of kin.

00:06:52Unfortunately, this call is to provide you with a time of death.

00:06:55Sorry, excuse me, time of death?

00:06:59Ms. Reynolds, your mother is dead.

00:07:03Grace, I need you to get a hold of Miller at the, uh...

00:07:10What is it?

00:07:13My mother's dead.

00:07:18Grace, are you serious?

00:07:21Okay, sorry, you said that we need to talk.

00:07:25I'm sorry.

00:07:27Are you serious?

00:07:29Okay, sorry, you said that we need Miller?

00:07:33You need me to call Jordan Miller?

00:07:35Grace, don't worry about that. You need to go.

00:07:38No, no, I can't. No, I can't. We've got...

00:07:40I'm telling you as your boss.

00:07:42You need to go.

00:07:57No.

00:08:08Why are you going back to work?

00:08:10Didn't Brendan give you, like, a whole month off?

00:08:14Yeah, but he needs me.

00:08:19Look, I know you're desperately in love with this man, but he...

00:08:23I am not.

00:08:28Okay, fine.

00:08:31I love him.

00:08:33Are you happy?

00:08:36I've loved him for five fucking years,

00:08:39and 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.

00:08:48I 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.

00:08:58You deserve love, not dirty work.

00:09:06Two percent growth in this economy is impressive.

00:09:09Above industry standard.

00:09:11Kate's division saw eight percent last month alone.

00:09:14Well, why don't we ask the IRS about Kate's growth?

00:09:17One of these days, that behavior's going to come back to bite her in the ass.

00:09:21It's not just business.

00:09:23Kate's a serious person. She's settling down.

00:09:26And you're still in the tabloids.

00:09:28With floozies.

00:09:30Ever since Dulcey...

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.

00:09:54Grace, what are you doing here? I thought you were still on bereavement.

00:10:02What is this?

00:10:04This is me.

00:10:06Quitting.

00:10:15No. Absolutely not.

00:10:18Excuse me?

00:10:20Look, if you still need more time to grieve...

00:10:22This 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...

00:10:42It doesn't matter. I'm done.

00:10:46No. You're not.

00:10:49You're still under contract for another year.

00:10:52What kind of leader would I be if I just let my employees leave just because they wanted to...

00:10:56Have a fresh start?

00:10:59Do you want to do this the hard way, Brennan?

00:11:02Okay. Fine.

00:11:05Hi. I need to speak with one of your attorneys, please.

00:11:08No. Any one of them is fine.

00:11:11Okay.

00:11:13What the fuck? What are you doing?

00:11:16Look.

00:11:18I'll allow you to quit under one condition.

00:11:22You become my girlfriend.

00:11:25No.

00:11:27No.

00:11:29No.

00:11:31No.

00:11:33You become my girlfriend.

00:11:38Excuse me?

00:11:40Look. My father doesn't think that I'm serious enough to keep the division.

00:11:44He and my mom are coming this weekend to stay with me for Kate's wedding, and...

00:11:48I just... I need to prove to him that I'm done fucking around.

00:11:52Are you?

00:11:55Right. I didn't think so.

00:11:58So ask Naomi. Or Miss Portugal. Anyone.

00:12:02There's a line of girls a mile long who'd be happy to help you.

00:12:05But Grace...

00:12:07You're the only one that I trust.

00:12:12Look. If you do this for me...

00:12:15I'll void your contract.

00:12:17And then you can go and do whatever it is that you want.

00:12:20With a glowing recommendation from myself.

00:12:23I can't do this anymore, Brennan.

00:12:26I can't keep doing your dirty work.

00:12:29Look. I deserve better. I deserve to...

00:12:32Grace!

00:12:35I need you.

00:12:42It's just for the weekend. Right?

00:12:45Just for your parents.

00:12:50Fine.

00:12:52I'll stay for the weekend. And then I'm gone.

00:13:00What the hell?

00:13:03What was that?

00:13:06Practice.

00:13:21Brennan?

00:13:24Okay. You can do this.

00:13:27You just have to get through this weekend.

00:13:30And then you can forget about Brennan Wolfe for good.

00:13:36Hey, babe.

00:13:45Settling in?

00:13:51Feel free to use any open space.

00:13:54Don't go to my side or get into any of my stuff.

00:13:57You don't seem to use your closet much.

00:14:03Are you enjoying the view?

00:14:10Wait.

00:14:18Here. Take this.

00:14:21What is this?

00:14:23Your 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.

00:14:42Just think of it as a bonus.

00:14:47Fine.

00:14:49It's getting late.

00:14:51I think I'm going to turn in.

00:14:54Do you mind?

00:14:57Most long-term couples share a bedroom.

00:15:11Absolutely not.

00:15:14Look, my parents get in tomorrow. We 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. There's like 50 in this place.

00:15:27Fine. You win.

00:15:31But I'll be downstairs watching a movie if you can't sleep.

00:15:38How about a rom-com?

00:15:42Sure.

00:15:49Okay, okay.

00:16:00I want to do that.

00:16:03And I want you now.

00:16:07Then what are you waiting for?

00:16:18Okay.

00:16:28Well, I think that's my cue.

00:16:31Good night, Brennan.

00:16:33I think I'm falling in love with you.

00:16:38No, you don't have to say anything. I just wanted you to know.

00:16:49Brennan?

00:17:00What are you doing here?

00:17:10So smooth.

00:17:18Wow.

00:17:21Wow.

00:17:46Wow.

00:17:49You look nice.

00:17:54Thanks.

00:18:03They're here. Prepare yourself.

00:18:07Brennan!

00:18:10Mother.

00:18:12Oh my goodness.

00:18:14This must be Grace.

00:18:17Brennan! She is absolutely darling.

00:18:23No wonder you've been keeping her all to yourself.

00:18:28Still, you might have mentioned her at some point.

00:18:35Oh, that'll be Kate. She's here for dinner.

00:18:39Oh, I didn't realize she'd be joining us.

00:18:43Oh, well, I wanted to include everyone. The whole family.

00:18:52Sweetheart.

00:18:54Oh, come here, honey bunny.

00:18:59I still can't believe you finally tamed my brother.

00:19:03How'd you do it?

00:19:07I was in Soho.

00:19:10Don't tell me you met in a bar.

00:19:14No, of course we didn't meet at a bar.

00:19:18Do you want to tell them, baby, or should I?

00:19:22Um, you tell it, sweetheart.

00:19:25I'll tell.

00:19:27I used to work for Cross & Co.

00:19:30I know, I know, your biggest rivals.

00:19:34Brennan and I hated each other. Always stealing clients and competing.

00:19:39But I always thought he was cute.

00:19:43One day, we were pitching the same client.

00:19:46We were coming out of the building when I took a step out into the road without looking.

00:19:50I know, I know, it's a terrible habit that I have.

00:19:53A car came barreling down the road at me, and before I knew it, I felt a pair of strong arms pull me back.

00:19:59And when I opened my eyes, I found myself staring up at your son.

00:20:05How could I hate him after that?

00:20:08And as they say, the rest is history.

00:20:17And I've been saving her from traffic ever since.

00:20:21Wow.

00:20:23Oh my gosh, that sounds like something straight out of a movie.

00:20:29Doesn't it, honey?

00:20:31Almost too good to be true.

00:20:34I tell you to get serious.

00:20:37And then you pick some random girl up off the street and suddenly you're...

00:20:41You're in love?

00:20:43Samuel.

00:20:44You've always been this way.

00:20:46Always taking the easy way out.

00:20:48Content to settle in the middle.

00:20:51Coasting along on your name and your money.

00:20:54You have no idea what you're talking about.

00:20:58Brennan cares more about his company than anyone I've ever met.

00:21:02He's dedicated and conscientious and he's...

00:21:08Sam.

00:21:14Dinner and a show.

00:21:16Lucky me.

00:21:18Thanks for the fun night.

00:21:32Brennan, I...

00:21:33I have some contracts to go over.

00:21:35Excuse me.

00:21:51Oh, Mrs. Wolfe.

00:21:53I am so sorry.

00:21:55I don't know what came over me.

00:21:57I was completely out of line and I want to apologize.

00:22:00Grace, I love my husband.

00:22:02But he's always been too hard on Brennan.

00:22:05Thank you so much for defending him.

00:22:11I can tell.

00:22:12You really do care for him.

00:22:16I do.

00:22:18Night, Cap.

00:22:24I thought you were mad at me.

00:22:25No, I...

00:22:31I just thank you for standing up for me tonight.

00:22:39I'm sorry.

00:22:41I'm sorry.

00:22:43I'm sorry.

00:22:46I don't think it really helped our cause.

00:22:51I think your dad hates me.

00:22:54But my mom loves you and so it cancels out.

00:22:59You were really good.

00:23:01I'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.

00:23:15Well...

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...

00:23:41I may not be good at real love,

00:23:44but I'm great at rom-coms.

00:23:49Plus, I mean, some of that is true.

00:23:51You are always saving me from traffic.

00:23:59Grace, you must really miss your mom.

00:24:04I'm so sorry.

00:24:12Yeah.

00:24:16It's hard...

00:24:18to lose the one person in the world who...

00:24:21makes it all make sense.

00:24:25Yeah.

00:24:27Trust me.

00:24:29I get it.

00:24:32You lost someone?

00:24:34I 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...

00:24:53I don't know if I...

00:24:55can.

00:24:57It's...

00:24:59It's okay.

00:25:01You can tell me.

00:25:08Okay.

00:25:14Maybe...

00:25:16Maybe some other time.

00:25:20So...

00:25:23If this were a rom-com,

00:25:26how would it go?

00:25:30It's very funny.

00:25:32No, I'm actually being serious.

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

00:25:55who just moved to the city.

00:25:57I'm not seeing the fiction there.

00:26:01So, 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

00:26:33helps you see the world in color for the first time.

00:26:37And then what?

00:26:41Well...

00:26:43Then, one night, we're on the sofa

00:26:48planning the next steps in our relationship.

00:26:52Then, I lean in and

00:26:56you lean in and...

00:26:59And then...

00:27:03And then...

00:27:26So, uh...

00:27:28Something like that?

00:27:30Huh?

00:27:31I mean, if we're gonna convince my parents,

00:27:33we'll have to kiss in front of them, so...

00:27:35Something 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.

00:28:21You are not gonna be able to sleep like that.

00:28:25I'll be fine.

00:28:28Come on, this...

00:28:30This bed is pretty big.

00:28:35Plus, you need to be well-rested to keep up the ruse, right?

00:28:41Just take the other side of the bed.

00:28:45Okay.

00:28:58Good night.

00:29:00Good night.

00:29:27Good night.

00:29:50Guys.

00:29:57Guys.

00:30:28Morning.

00:30:31Brennan.

00:30:34We 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?

00:30:47Great apology so far.

00:30:50But you're still my son,

00:30:52and I care about you deeply.

00:30:56So what do you know about this Grace?

00:31:01What do you mean?

00:31:03I've seen her type before.

00:31:05They appear from the woodwork

00:31:08and attach themselves to great families.

00:31:11They're like leeches.

00:31:13I do not want to see

00:31:16my company

00:31:18fall into the hands of some gold digger.

00:31:22How dare you talk about Grace like that?

00:31:25You have no idea what she's done for this company.

00:31:28For me. You have no idea what she's done for me.

00:31:30I couldn't do this without her.

00:31:32Without who?

00:31:38I'll be going.

00:31:40But think about what I said.

00:31:52What was that all about?

00:31:54We have to step up our game.

00:31:56Look, my father's still suspicious of you.

00:31:58What the fuck are we gonna do?

00:32:00I thought this was gonna work.

00:32:02Hey, it's okay.

00:32:05We'll figure this out.

00:32:07You said you think your mom likes me, right?

00:32:10Maybe we can convince your mom to talk to him

00:32:12and he'll come around.

00:32:16You know, that's not a bad idea.

00:32:22Ugh.

00:32:28Ugh.

00:32:30What is wrong with this?

00:32:44You'd like it with cinnamon.

00:32:56So.

00:32:58About last night.

00:33:04Well, aren't you two just the cutest?

00:33:09Mom.

00:33:10I didn't see you come in.

00:33:12Sorry to interrupt you two lovebirds,

00:33:14but I was just on my way to pick out the flowers for the reception.

00:33:18Poor Kate.

00:33:19She's just so busy with her work

00:33:21she 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.

00:33:33Mom, but I have to work.

00:33:34Oh, please.

00:33:35The last thing this family needs is another workaholic.

00:33:39Shall we?

00:33:44Oh, hey.

00:33:45I love these flowers.

00:33:47I think you two will be so excited about them.

00:33:49I'm really excited.

00:33:50Thanks for taking me along, Jack.

00:33:52Grace!

00:33:58Every time.

00:34:20Mom.

00:34:24Uh, do you think you could maybe talk to Dad for us?

00:34:28You know, get him to ease up on Grace a bit.

00:34:33Of course, darling.

00:34:36Grace is an absolute angel,

00:34:39and he needs to stop harping on her.

00:34:42Look at my son.

00:34:45Oh, protect him.

00:34:48I love it.

00:34:52What about these?

00:34:57Oh, come on.

00:34:59Yellow is bright and fun.

00:35:05A rose for my rose.

00:35:10Yellow roses symbolize friendship.

00:35:13White 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?

00:35:37Look, I miss you, silly, and I know you miss me.

00:35:41Look, didn't Grace already tell you?

00:35:43Look, we're not a thing.

00:35:46You mean your bitch-ass assistant?

00:35:48You let her speak for you?

00:35:50Keep your voice down.

00:35:53Why 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!

00:36:11Ugh!

00:36:26Think happy and rich. Happy and rich!

00:36:28Beautiful!

00:36:30Alright, one more. Big smiles! Big, big smiles!

00:36:33Well, that'll never happen.

00:36:36What about a smirk?

00:36:38He can do a smirk.

00:36:42Alright.

00:36:44And how about a solo picture of a brother and girlfriend?

00:37:00Uh, you two are dating?

00:37:04Just take the picture.

00:37:07Come on, Brennan. Give her a kiss.

00:37:11Seriously?

00:37:13A real kiss.

00:37:40A real kiss.

00:37:54Real enough?

00:38:11Brennan, 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.

00:38:32Brennan 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.

00:38:53Who's Dulce?

00:38:56You haven't told her?

00:38:58Look, that's none of your business, Kate.

00:39:03Fine.

00:39:05Game on.

00:39:09All right. It's easy.

00:39:11Hers means you have to answer questions about Brennan.

00:39:14His means he has to answer questions about you.

00:39:17Each correct answer gets a point.

00:39:19Whoever gets the most points wins.

00:39:22Are you ready to lose?

00:39:26How bad can it be?

00:39:28It's not like we're strangers.

00:39:30Let's start with a question for the boys.

00:39:32All right, first question.

00:39:35What is your partner's go-to lunch?

00:39:39Okay.

00:39:49Okay.

00:39:51And three, two, one, flip.

00:39:58Oh, come on.

00:40:00The 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?

00:40:32Three, two, one, flip.

00:40:35Okay, this is scary.

00:40:37You know me too well.

00:40:39That's the idea, babe.

00:40:46Alec, baby, it's you.

00:40:48Now it's about the girlies.

00:40:51What'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?

00:41:21Bren, you're up.

00:41:35Ugh.

00:41:49All right, last question.

00:41:55What is your partner's favorite movie genre?

00:42:04And he gets a point.

00:42:06Finally, his first one.

00:42:09That makes 16 for The Lovebirds

00:42:12and 37 for me and Alec.

00:42:15Match made in heaven, baby.

00:42:30You remember you quit, right?

00:42:33You don't have to keep working for me.

00:42:36Yeah, well, who else is going to check the security cameras for you?

00:42:47Grace, I know you're upset.

00:42:51But it's just a stupid game, right?

00:42:54It doesn't matter.

00:42:57I think I'm going to turn in.

00:42:59Night.

00:43:01Grace, look, I'm trying here, okay?

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, we'll go our separate ways and back to reality.

00:43:26Speaking of, I drafted a list of replacement assistants.

00:43:31It should be in your email.

00:43:34Now, if you'll excuse me.

00:43:37Grace.

00:43:55Bye.

00:44:20I'm sure he's not hiding anything.

00:44:22Maybe she's just an old friend or something.

00:44:25But it's not just that.

00:44:28The other day, we were playing this couples game, and he didn't know anything about me.

00:44:34I've made his life perfect for years, and he couldn't even bother to learn my favorite band.

00:44:39I know it's hard, but clearly he cares about you.

00:44:43I mean, he brought you home to meet his parents.

00:44:46I'm sure he didn't do that with all the other girls.

00:44:52I need to tell you something.

00:44:55I'm sorry.

00:44:57I'm sorry.

00:45:22I thought maybe he was starting to fall for me, for real.

00:45:26I mean, we kissed a couple of times.

00:45:29And the other morning, I woke up and he was holding me.

00:45:34I guess I was just deluding myself like Naomi and all the others.

00:45:39I said I was done with this.

00:45:42I quit, for God's sakes.

00:45:44But then he roped me in, and like a fucking idiot, I let him pull me right back in.

00:45:50It's like I haven't learned anything.

00:45:52Grace, you're not an idiot.

00:45:54You're just a romantic.

00:45:56And that's different.

00:46:00I don't know.

00:46:02Maybe my mother was right.

00:46:05Real men always let you down.

00:46:09I'm not going to get my hopes up.

00:46:11I just have to get through the weekend, and then I can put Brennan Wolfe behind me.

00:46:16Cheers.

00:46:25Cheers.

00:46:38Come in.

00:46:39Late night booty call in your office.

00:46:42Just like the good old days.

00:46:44Glad you finally saw the light, lover.

00:46:55I love you.

00:47:02Brennan?

00:47:05Baby?

00:47:07Where'd you go? I'm right here.

00:47:10No, this was a mistake.

00:47:13You need to go.

00:47:16No.

00:47:17The only mistake was you letting me go.

00:47:21No, you need to go.

00:47:25Get out.

00:47:26The fuck, Brennan?

00:47:28Go!

00:47:51Brenny? Is that you?

00:47:54Mom, what are you doing up?

00:47:58I have something for you.

00:48:00I wanted to give it to you earlier.

00:48:03But I just wanted to let you know how happy I am that you and Grace have found each other.

00:48:08It's just been so long since Dulcy, and I was beginning to worry you'd never find it again.

00:48:16Mom, I...

00:48:18It's okay. You deserve to feel love again.

00:48:22And I know now might not be the right time, but I wanted to give you this.

00:48:36Your father proposed to me with it.

00:48:39And when the time comes,

00:48:41And when the time comes,

00:48:43maybe you could propose to Grace with it.

00:48:51It just, it feels so much like last time.

00:48:55Mom, what if that means that it's all going to fall apart again?

00:49:00It's okay, sweetie.

00:49:02That feeling is fear.

00:49:04And all that means is that it's real.

00:49:11Okay.

00:49:22You said you needed to see me?

00:49:25Now who needs reminding that I quit?

00:49:29Look, there's something I want to tell you.

00:49:32I, 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.

00:49:48What did you just say?

00:49:50I've been an idiot.

00:49:53Right? I've taken you for granted, and these last few days have made me realize I can't live without you.

00:49:59Rather, I don't want to.

00:50:03I want to make us official.

00:50:08What do you say?

00:50:17Wait.

00:50:26If I could live anywhere in the world, where would I live?

00:50:31What? I...

00:50:33Who's my hero?

00:50:36I...

00:50:37What's my mother's name?

00:50:39What'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, you don't know anything about me.

00:51:00No.

00:51:06I know that you're kind.

00:51:12I know that you're not afraid to stand up for people you care about.

00:51:18That you love your mom.

00:51:21That you're an extremely hard worker.

00:51:26That you snore.

00:51:32I know that you make me feel safe, and happy, and good.

00:51:39And if you give me a chance, I'll learn the rest.

00:51:45Please.

00:51:47Grace.

00:51:56Grace.

00:52:21Here.

00:52:23This never stopped you before.

00:52:35Hey there, beautiful.

00:52:49You look like you've been up all night.

00:52:52And whose fault is that?

00:52:55Mine.

00:53:03Get me?

00:53:10Okay.

00:53:12Hold still there, Mr. Wolf.

00:53:16This will make you look awake.

00:53:18There.

00:53:22Hmm.

00:53:27Wow.

00:53:31You are a miracle worker.

00:53:35What else is new?

00:53:37I love you.

00:53:52You know, when I get married, I'm not inviting any of these people.

00:53:57In fact, I'm not inviting anyone at all.

00:53:59Vegas elopement.

00:54:02Elvis impersonator.

00:54:04Reception at the casino.

00:54:06It works.

00:54:08It's very romantic.

00:54:11Yeah.

00:54:13What about you?

00:54:16I don't know.

00:54:18Oh, come on. Don't tell me you haven't thought about it.

00:54:21I mean, doesn't every single one of those rom-coms have some sort of cliche fairy tale wedding?

00:54:28I guess I never imagined it, because I've never been in love before.

00:54:35All the guys I've been with haven't.

00:54:38Something hasn't felt right.

00:54:41It's like I've been waiting for someone.

00:54:49What about you?

00:54:51What about me?

00:54:53Have you ever been in love?

00:54:59Excuse me.

00:55:00Do you mind if I borrow my son for a moment?

00:55:05Be my guest.

00:55:22Time to pay the piper, bro.

00:55:25What the fuck is this?

00:55:28Kate.

00:55:31The other night, I went down to get a drink of water,

00:55:36and that's when I heard your so-called girlfriend saying something very interesting to her little friend.

00:55:42She's not your girlfriend after all, is she?

00:55:45Look, Dad, I don't know what you're...

00:55:47No more of your lies, son.

00:55:49And do not ask your mother to intervene.

00:55:51I knew this was wrong from the get-go.

00:55:54Now I have proof.

00:55:56I'll be meeting with the board on Monday morning,

00:55:59and then you'll begin the process of transferring your division's assets over to...

00:56:04Wait!

00:56:06Look, I don't know what Kate heard or thinks she heard,

00:56:11but what Grace and I have is real.

00:56:14I swear.

00:56:17I'll prove it.

00:56:29PHONE VIBRATES

00:56:43Excuse me, everyone.

00:56:46Excuse me, may I please just have a moment of your time?

00:56:50And will my lovely girlfriend, Grace Reynolds, please join me?

00:57:00MUSIC PLAYS

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, and I've realized just how deep my love for you runs.

00:57:23And now I'd like to formalize that love.

00:57:29MUSIC PLAYS

00:57:39My father gave my mother this ring 30 years ago.

00:57:43And through all the hardships they've endured, this ring has remained a symbol of their enduring love.

00:57:49Yesterday my mother gave it to me, and today I'd like to give it to you.

00:57:55Grace Reynolds, will you do me the honours of making me the happiest man on earth,

00:58:01and allow me to be your husband?

00:58:15Yes.

00:58:17I'll marry you.

00:58:25APPLAUSE

00:58:44I need to talk to you.

00:58:48Grace, I know, I know, but my father and Kate, they were circling me and...

00:58:52You resolve my contract today.

00:58:55I'll stay with you publicly until your father agrees to leave your division alone, but then I'm gone.

00:59:01And I never want to see you again.

00:59:05Why?

00:59:17Grace, this was a mistake.

00:59:19But I put a stop to it. I promise, nothing happened.

00:59:23Why should I believe you?

00:59:25I mean, it's on the tape. Watch it.

00:59:28Grace, you've been my assistant for five years.

00:59:35You know me. You know everything about me.

00:59:40Not everything.

00:59:43What's that supposed to mean?

00:59:45Who's Dulcy?

00:59:47This is... personal.

00:59:51Well, you just asked me to marry you, so what's yours is mine, right, honey?

00:59:58Who is she?

01:00:04Nothing to say.

01:00:07Well, it doesn't matter.

01:00:09Because I'm done.

01:00:18Okay.

01:00:35Grace?

01:00:37Oh, thank God.

01:00:40What is this? Where am I?

01:00:45What's wrong with me?

01:00:49Grace, just calm down, okay? You're going to hurt yourself.

01:00:53You were hit by a car.

01:00:56What?

01:00:58You got a spinal injury.

01:01:00And, well, you're suffering from paralysis.

01:01:03But it's only temporary.

01:01:05The doctor said that you'll walk again, you just... your body needs time to recover.

01:01:10I should be in a hospital.

01:01:13Grace, we have the very best doctors on retainer.

01:01:17Mom, can Grace and I just have a moment, please?

01:01:20Of course.

01:01:22But if you need anything, just call.

01:01:25I'll be in the next room.

01:01:35Grace, when I saw you outside on the street, I was so fucking scared, I thought I'd lost you.

01:01:41Lost your little prop, you mean?

01:01:44How could you say that? Do you really think I don't care about you?

01:01:49Brennan, if your father wasn't in the picture, would you have even asked me out?

01:01:56I...

01:01:58Yeah, I didn't think so.

01:02:02You can keep trying to trick yourself into thinking that you care about me, but this whole time you were just playing pretend.

01:02:09I'll stay here until I can walk again, but we're over.

01:02:14Grace, I...

01:02:22Okay, whatever you want.

01:02:40That's not true. Angela, 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.

01:02:58I, uh, thought you might be hungry.

01:03:03I made lasagna. Belle told me it was your favorite.

01:03:09Can I at least leave it by your bed?

01:03:14Okay.

01:03:27Fuck.

01:03:30Let me see it, let me see it.

01:03:33Alright, you're okay, but it's just cramping because you've been in the bed so long. It just needs to be massaged.

01:03:42Just, just fucking do it.

01:03:45Okay.

01:03:47Oh, breathe. Breathe into it. Right there.

01:03:53Breathe. Steady.

01:03:57Calm. Slow it down.

01:04:00Breathe.

01:04:12You can stop.

01:04:19Of course.

01:04:24You're good at that.

01:04:27Yeah.

01:04:29I've got quite a bit of experience.

01:04:35You know, I think it's time I told you about Dulce.

01:04:47She was my fiancée.

01:04:50You were engaged?

01:04:53Yeah.

01:04:56We were young, and she was a free spirit, in love with the world, and I admired that.

01:05:06Honestly, I wanted to be just like her.

01:05:10I asked her to marry me after two weeks.

01:05:19A month after the engagement, we got the diagnosis.

01:05:26And six months later, I buried her.

01:05:31We never got to walk down the aisle.

01:05:35I'm so sorry, Brennan.

01:05:39So I just, I pushed down my emotions and drowned myself in girlfriends and one night stands, but nothing worked.

01:05:50And I thought, if I fell in love again, that something terrible would happen.

01:05:56And I was right.

01:06:01Are you saying, are you saying you love me?

01:06:06Grace, how could I not love you?

01:06:13Look, I know I don't deserve your forgiveness or your love, but please, let me take care of you like you've taken care of me for so long.

01:06:33Just until you recover.

01:06:37Then you can go.

01:06:43Fuck, Belle, that hurts.

01:06:46That's good.

01:06:48Dr. Hurt says that's a good sign.

01:06:50It means you're getting your feeling back.

01:07:03Hey, you know what you're going to 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.

01:07:16I don't know.

01:07:18Maybe my mom was right.

01:07:20Men aren't like in the rom-coms.

01:07:23Of course they're not.

01:07:25Girl, 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.

01:07:32It's not the same.

01:07:34You 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.

01:07:42All right, let's do the other side.

01:07:58Yeah, of course.

01:08:05Doc told me you're doing really well.

01:08:08Said you stood up today.

01:08:11Yeah, for a whole two seconds.

01:08:14Still.

01:08:16That's amazing.

01:08:20Grace, I'm so proud of you.

01:08:26I guess that means that you'll be leaving soon.

01:08:29Yeah, I guess.

01:08:35Well, before you go to bed, want to watch a rom-com?

01:08:39Heard there's a new one on Netflix.

01:08:44No, I'm okay.

01:08:46I'm feeling a bit tired.

01:08:48You want to read a book?

01:08:50I actually went ahead and picked you up a copy of Pride and Prejudice, just in case.

01:08:55Or I could read it to you, if you want.

01:09:00Actually, I already started.

01:09:03I'm not sure I understand it, because Darcy's kind of a dick.

01:09:11He gets better.

01:09:16No, I'm okay.

01:09:19Got it.

01:09:20No, I'm okay.

01:09:26Want to listen to some music before you go to bed?

01:09:30No.

01:09:47Ever heard of those Blood Orange Grove guys?

01:09:52I hear they're pretty good.

01:10:00How much can we both take when love isn't at home?

01:10:07I can't hear a word you're saying.

01:10:18Grace, I'm so sorry, but my family is here. I swear I had no idea they were coming.

01:10:24But I'll tell them to leave immediately.

01:10:26It's okay.

01:10:27No, you're still recovering.

01:10:31And I still haven't told them that we're not together anymore.

01:10:35But I was just going to tell them we broke up as soon as you left.

01:10:40Brennan, it's okay. I can do this.

01:10:47Well, 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 and Brennan, I'd like to apologize for the way I've behaved.

01:11:12I thought I was acting in the best interest of my son, and I see now that I was wrong.

01:11:20So, I would like to give this union my full blessing.

01:11:27No. Stop. Mom, Dad, there's something I need to tell you.

01:11:37Brennan, what are you doing?

01:11:42Grace isn't my fiancé.

01:11:50She was my assistant.

01:11:55She tried to quit, but I wouldn't let her.

01:11:59In fact, I blackmailed her into pretending to be my girlfriend so that you would keep my division open.

01:12:07Grace is a beautiful, lovely, kind, and sweet woman, and I used her to further my own goals.

01:12:27Even now, she's still helping me when I almost got her killed, because that's just who she is.

01:12:38I won't let you continue lying for me anymore.

01:12:45Everything you said is true. I'm an unserious playboy, but this playboy wants to do better.

01:12:54So, if you have to close my division, I guess I understand.

01:13:01Sam, don't.

01:13:08I didn't even have to beat you. You did it for me.

01:13:14That's enough, Kate. Go wait in the car.

01:13:19Mom.

01:13:34I am so proud of you. I mean it.

01:13:38I was so brave of you to tell the truth.

01:13:41But I could tell you were keeping something from us.

01:13:44But I could also see that you and Grace really care for each other, and that it wasn't a lie, even when you thought it was.

01:13:57Now, I'll let you two talk this through.

01:14:00I'll let you two talk this through.

01:14:11Brennan.

01:14:14Grace, I understand if you just want to go home now.

01:14:18I can send your stuff to your apartment, but don't worry, I won't be coming with it.

01:14:24Brennan, I'm not leaving.

01:14:31You're not?

01:14:35My whole life, I thought if a guy couldn't measure up to the Nora Ephron or Nancy Meyers heroes, he wasn't worth it.

01:14:46But maybe it's good that you're not this perfect guy, because I'm not a porn star.

01:14:54What?

01:14:57It sounded better when Belle said it.

01:15:03I guess maybe fantasies are fantasies for a reason.

01:15:10And after all of this, I realized I don't want a fairy tale.

01:15:17I want real.

01:15:19I want you.

01:15:21I 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.

01:15:40Not today.

01:15:42Clear?

01:15:51Crystal.

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?

01:16:21I think I have an idea.
