00:17:29I knew he was trouble.
00:17:32To mend our differences, I was already drafting
00:17:34a $10 billion investment into his company.
00:17:38And then I heard he sent you to prison.
00:17:43Is that why you called him earlier tonight?
00:17:46It's Carrington Enterprise.
00:17:47I have to take this.
00:17:49This is unforgivable.
00:17:51Sarah, cancel that contract immediately.
00:17:55Yes, Mr. Carrington.
00:17:56Dad, I got this.
00:18:00I just need to cut ties with Ethan.
00:18:02And I have to get Grace back.
00:18:06Nicole's right, Mr. Carrington.
00:18:07I'll go with her.
00:18:09And I won't let her get hurt.
00:18:10I'm basically the lady of this house now.
00:18:25And I will be soon.
00:18:28And Ethan, he'll be my husband.
00:18:33Thanks, Elaine.
00:18:35I don't know what I would have done
00:18:36on Grace's birthday party if you weren't here.
00:18:39Nicole could never pull this off.
00:18:41She couldn't even take good care of our daughter.
00:18:44Lupe, it's your birthday today.
00:18:46Let's go find Mommy.
00:18:47By the way, do you know where Grace is?
00:18:49She's just in her room.
00:18:50I'll go check on her.
00:18:51Did I hear you say Mommy?
00:19:02Your Mommy is a criminal.
00:19:04And you'll never see her.
00:19:06My Mommy is a good person.
00:19:08I'm taking Lupe to find Mommy.
00:19:10I want Mommy here, not you.
00:19:12This is my home.
00:19:13Well, guess what?
00:19:15Soon, this is gonna be my house.
00:19:18And I'm gonna be your new Mommy.
00:19:20No, you're not my Mommy.
00:19:22You little bastard.
00:19:24What's the name of your toy?
00:19:27Lupe?
00:19:27No, Lupe!
00:19:30No, Lupe!
00:19:32Now, you stay right here,
00:19:34or every toy of yours
00:19:36is gonna end up like Lupe.
00:19:43I have to save Lupe,
00:19:45and we're gonna go find my Mommy.
00:19:47I love this dress.
00:20:12It's so pretty.
00:20:13Ethan, what's the matter?
00:20:17Where's Grace?
00:20:18Oh, I told you she's in her room.
00:20:20I checked on her.
00:20:21You two are a better match.
00:20:23Elaine is a career woman,
00:20:24but also takes good care of Grace.
00:20:27Ethan, you should consider
00:20:29making Elaine Grace's new Mommy.
00:20:31Elaine and I just work together.
00:20:34There's nothing between us.
00:20:35Hello, dear.
00:20:38Oh, hi.
00:20:40Ethan, this is my mom.
00:20:42You know, her boyfriend
00:20:43is the chief investing director
00:20:45of the Carrington Group.
00:20:47Mr. Owen wrote.
00:20:48Wait.
00:20:49So the $10 billion contract
00:20:51deal with the Carrington?
00:20:53Elaine urged me
00:20:54to pull some strings with Owen.
00:20:57She did that all for you.
00:20:59The Carringtons had decided
00:21:01to invest in Ethan
00:21:02even before my mom
00:21:03got together with that man.
00:21:05But that's not important.
00:21:07I'll do whatever it takes
00:21:08to make you mine, Ethan.
00:21:19Excuse me.
00:21:24You got some nerve
00:21:25to show to our daughter's
00:21:26birthday party, Nicole.
00:21:27Where is Grace?
00:21:29Why isn't she with you?
00:21:30She's safe in her room.
00:21:32And who are you
00:21:33to stride in here
00:21:34questioning how I take care
00:21:36of our daughter?
00:21:37I'm her mother.
00:21:39And I'm taking her with me today.
00:21:40Mommy!
00:21:41Mommy!
00:21:42Save me!
00:21:46Mommy!
00:21:48Is that Grace?
00:21:50Mommy!
00:21:52Save me!
00:21:55Grace!
00:21:55Grace!

00:22:19Okay.
00:22:21You're okay!
00:22:22Oh my gosh, you're okay.
00:22:23You're okay.
00:22:24Mommy's here.
00:22:24Hey, what were you drinking
00:22:27in the water, sweetheart?
00:22:27I'm sorry, Mommy.
00:22:29We fell in the pool
00:22:30because of me.
00:22:31But I saved him.
00:22:32You're back.
00:22:34Yeah.
00:22:35Yeah, Mommy's there, baby.
00:22:38I'm so sorry.
00:22:40Grace?
00:22:40Grace?
00:22:48What the hell happened here?
00:22:49Why the hell was Grace by herself?
00:22:57You know she can't swim.
00:22:58Do you have any idea how scared she was?
00:23:01I...
00:23:02Ethan, I'm so sorry.
00:23:04I have no idea how Grace ended up in the pool.
00:23:06She promised she'd stay in her room.
00:23:10Nicole!
00:23:11What are you doing?
00:23:12You put my daughter in danger
00:23:13and this is the second time
00:23:15you have done so.
00:23:15That is not okay.
00:23:17What?
00:23:18Why is she accusing me like this?
00:23:20You need to stop the act.
00:23:22Elaine, it is making me sick.
00:23:23I'm gonna throw up right now.
00:23:28I'm taking Grace with me today.
00:23:31You're crazy!
00:23:32She's my daughter, too.
00:23:33One more step
00:23:35and I'm gonna call the police
00:23:36and they're gonna send
00:23:36your wet ass back to jail.
00:23:37Come on.
00:23:39I'd like to see you try.
00:23:43Ethan Carter.
00:23:57What the hell is this?
00:23:58Divorce papers.
00:24:00Sign it.
00:24:02Also, I am getting full custody of Grace.
00:24:04What?
00:24:06I'm not getting a divorce.
00:24:07Mr. Carter,
00:24:08my client has made her decision.
00:24:10We're informing you of it.
00:24:11Not discussing.
00:24:14I have nothing else to say to you.
00:24:17Don't sign the papers.
00:24:18Fine, we'll take it to court.
00:24:19But I am taking Grace with me right now.
00:24:21I let you leech on to me
00:24:23for seven years!
00:24:26What have you done for me all these years?
00:24:28Who are you to leave me?
00:24:31And who are you to take my daughter away from me?
00:24:34Seven years of marriage,
00:24:37and that's seriously what you think of me?
00:24:39Tell me, am I wrong?
00:24:41Even Elaine,
00:24:42my assistant,
00:24:43did more for this family
00:24:45than you ever did.
00:24:46She helped me secure
00:24:48the billion-dollar contract
00:24:49with the Carringtons.
00:24:51Ha!
00:24:52Wow.
00:24:53I really cannot wait for you
00:24:54to understand this.
00:24:55Everything that you have right now,
00:24:57all of it,
00:24:58I gave it to you.
00:25:03I gave it to you.
00:25:07You!
00:25:08You gave me everything I have?
00:25:11How?
00:25:12By cooking?
00:25:14By doing my laundry?
00:25:17By taking Grace?
00:25:18I can easily
00:25:21throw some money at service
00:25:23to do all of that for me.
00:25:25I put a roof over your head.
00:25:27What else do you want from me?
00:25:30Stop insulting Nicole,
00:25:32or you'll regret it.
00:25:34How dare you hit me?
00:25:40Very well, Nicole.
00:25:43You're leaving me, huh?
00:25:44Spending all my money
00:25:45on some hot-shot lawyer against me.
00:25:49Divorcing me?
00:25:50I'll sign it.
00:25:52I can't wait
00:25:53to see what your life
00:25:55looks like without me.
00:25:56Soon,
00:25:57I'll have the Carrington contract,
00:26:00and you
00:26:00will have nothing.
00:26:06Nicole,
00:26:08you could wash
00:26:09all the dishes,
00:26:10scrub all the toilets
00:26:12for the rest of your life,
00:26:13and you won't even make
00:26:14a crumb
00:26:15of what Ethan's gonna make.
00:26:18Are you gonna have
00:26:18Grace live in the ghetto
00:26:20with you?
00:26:20She's just a kid.
00:26:22Okay,
00:26:22it's just a $10 billion contract.
00:26:24You can stop gloating.
00:26:25Besides,
00:26:25you're not gonna get it.
00:26:27Just
00:26:27a $10 billion contract?
00:26:30Did you lose your mind
00:26:31when you were in prison?
00:26:32Do you have any idea
00:26:33how much money that is?
00:26:36When this contract
00:26:37doesn't work out,
00:26:38when,
00:26:39not if,
00:26:40don't come crying
00:26:41to me for my help.
00:26:43You're not gonna get any.
00:26:44Wait!
00:26:50I didn't say
00:26:52you could take Grace.
00:27:01Congrats, Mr. Carter.
00:27:02You just lost the one person
00:27:04who will ever love you.
00:27:05who is that guy?
00:27:12He seems
00:27:13so powerful.
00:27:14I know who that is.
00:27:17That's Damon Hawthorne,
00:27:18the country's best lawyer.
00:27:19What?
00:27:21How could Nicole
00:27:22afford someone like him?
00:27:25Oh my...
00:27:26That is how
00:27:27she got out of jail
00:27:28so easily.
00:27:30She's sleeping with him.
00:27:32Nicole,
00:27:33how dare you betray me.
00:27:35Once I signed
00:27:36the Carrington contract,
00:27:38you'll regret me.
00:27:42Grandpa!
00:27:45Oh, it's just my
00:27:47sweet granddaughter,
00:27:49Grace.
00:27:51This is wonderful.
00:27:53My dream has come true.
00:27:54My daughter
00:27:55and my granddaughter
00:27:56have come back.
00:27:58Let's put you down.
00:27:59Oh!
00:28:01And since you're back,
00:28:03you can take over
00:28:04as CEO
00:28:04of the Carrington Group
00:28:05effective immediately.
00:28:09What?
00:28:11Now?
00:28:12That's right.
00:28:13I've decided to retire
00:28:15and spend more time
00:28:16with my precious
00:28:17granddaughter.
00:28:18I...
00:28:20I...
00:28:20I promise, Dad,
00:28:21I won't let you down,
00:28:22I swear.
00:28:25I suppose you're my boss
00:28:27starting from now on then,
00:28:29Miss Carrington.
00:28:31Hmm.
00:28:35And to celebrate
00:28:36my princesses coming home,
00:28:38let's plan a Grand
00:28:39Carrington Banquet
00:28:40for next week.
00:28:41Invite everybody
00:28:42who's anybody.
00:28:43I want them here.
00:28:44It's time they met
00:28:45the one and only
00:28:46Carrington heiress.
00:29:00This is it.
00:29:01The world I belong to.
00:29:04Soon,
00:29:05I'll be one of them.
00:29:07You see those men
00:29:08over there?
00:29:09Some of the highest
00:29:10ranking politicians
00:29:11politicians
00:29:12in the country.
00:29:14And you see those people
00:29:15over there?
00:29:16Some of the wealthiest
00:29:18families from each
00:29:19and every state.
00:29:21Hmm.
00:29:26And there it is.
00:29:28Sitting right there.
00:29:30The $10 billion contract
00:29:32will be signing
00:29:33with the Carrington Group.
00:29:34I can't thank you enough
00:29:38for getting us
00:29:39this contract in late.
00:29:41You really are
00:29:42the best family
00:29:43Nicole and I
00:29:43can ask for.
00:29:45They're already
00:29:45divorced.
00:29:47Why is he hung up
00:29:48on Nicole?
00:29:49She's just a
00:29:50worthless housewife.
00:29:51And I'll see you next time.
00:30:03Oh,
00:30:04so
00:30:04you
00:30:05can't
00:30:09get
00:30:09all
00:30:10Miss Carrington, the guests are arriving soon.
00:30:37You may head down whenever you're ready.
00:30:40Okay.
00:30:42Let's go.
00:30:44I can't believe this.
00:30:46This party is so luxurious.
00:30:47Of course.
00:30:48Mr. Carrington is the richest man in the country.
00:30:50And he held this grand party to welcome back his sole heiress who's been away for seven years.
00:30:56You know, I heard Mr. Carrington is announcing her as the new CEO tonight,
00:31:01and she's gonna be the one signing the contract with us.
00:31:04Really, Elaine?
00:31:05So your $10 billion business deal, that's settled.
00:31:09That's right.
00:31:10You know, and I heard it from Mr. Rook himself, the chief investing director of the Carrington family.
00:31:16I wonder where this heiress is.
00:31:18Be patient, Ethan.
00:31:20You know, I'm sure Mr. Carrington is preparing a grand entrance for her.
00:31:25But you know, I'm curious too.
00:31:28Who is this secret heiress that gave up this family fortune for seven years?
00:31:34Seven years?
00:31:36That was how long Nicole and I were married.
00:31:38Well, no matter what, we should toast to your success and that $10 billion contract.
00:31:45Look!
00:31:46It must be the heiress.
00:31:47How could it be her?
00:31:51How could it be her?
00:32:08How the hell did you sneak in here, Nicole?
00:32:23Sneak in?
00:32:25I was escorted in.
00:32:27With respect.
00:32:28You're just here to get Ethan back since he's closing a $10 billion deal.
00:32:34Wow.
00:32:35You even bought this fake designer dress.
00:32:38Please, you're just gonna embarrass yourself and Ethan.
00:32:41You really think I want Ethan back?
00:32:46Take a look around this room.
00:32:48Every person in there makes Ethan look like nothing.
00:32:54Like this rug.
00:32:55Looks expensive, but it's actually just there to be walked on.
00:32:59Go back to your pathetic housewife life, Nicole.
00:33:02This is my first time breaking into real high society.
00:33:06Nicole, if you're here to talk about getting back together,
00:33:11at least wait until I sign the contract with the heiress.
00:33:15Oh, Ethan.
00:33:18You still don't get it.
00:33:20If I leave, this entire event would be over.
00:33:25Oh, sweetheart.
00:33:27Mr. Rook invited us personally to close the $10 billion deal.
00:33:31So just leave now before you embarrass yourself.
00:33:34Or we have to have security kick you out.
00:33:37Oh, no.
00:33:39Uh, you mean Owen Rooks?
00:33:40Chief Investment Officer at the Carrington Group?
00:33:43Wow, you even did your homework just to get Ethan back.
00:33:46Even though the name of the Carrington's Chief Investment Director.
00:33:49Mm-hmm.
00:33:55Hi.
00:33:57Have Owen Rooks meet me here immediately.
00:33:59If he's not here in one minute.
00:34:02Fire him.
00:34:04Understood.
00:34:05Damon Hawthorne?
00:34:06The famous lawyer and lover of Ethan's ex-wife?
00:34:08What is he doing here?
00:34:09Mr. Hawthorne.
00:34:10I've been looking for you.
00:34:11I hear the heiress, Ms. Carrington, is taking over as CEO at the party.
00:34:13I was hoping you could introduce us beforehand.
00:34:14Oh, what a coincidence, Owen.
00:34:15I actually just called the phone with Ms. Carrington.
00:34:16She wants to see you down in the main hall.
00:34:17And let's see here.
00:34:18You've got 40 seconds before you're fired.
00:34:19I'm on my way.
00:34:20Yeah.
00:34:21I'm on my way.
00:34:22Yeah.
00:34:23Mr. Rook is about to be promoted by the Carrington's.
00:34:26One deal with him could turn someone into a millionaire overnight.
00:34:27Mr. Rook is about to be promoted by the Carrington's.
00:34:28One deal with him could turn someone into a millionaire overnight.
00:34:29Mr. Rook is about to be promoted by the Carrington's.
00:34:31Mr. Rook is about to be campaigning.
00:34:32One deal with him could turn someone into a millionaire overnight.
00:34:33Who are you to fire him?
00:34:34One word?
00:34:37What?
00:34:39Mr. Rook is about to be promoted by the Carrington's.
00:34:41One deal with him could turn someone into a millionaire overnight.
00:34:51Who are you to fire him?
00:34:54One word, bet.
00:34:55Mr. Rook, that's the matter.
00:34:57Oh, Tina, everyone.
00:35:00is all it takes.
00:35:20How dare you sit there?
00:35:22That is reserved for the heiress of the Carrington family.
00:35:26Yes.
00:35:27Move. Move! Out of my way!
00:35:31Listen. No need to panic, Owen.
00:35:34You don't know a damn thing.
00:35:36Miss Carrington is the sole heir to this empire.
00:35:39The word is law.
00:35:41Get up. You can't sit there.
00:35:45What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:35:49Miss Carrington?
00:35:51Miss Carrington, you're right.
00:35:53Don't let her fool you, Owen.
00:35:55She is just a troublemaker.
00:35:58And you won't believe this.
00:35:59She said that she could fire you.
00:36:03Seriously?
00:36:04Look what you did, Nicole.
00:36:06You're gonna pay for your stupid lies.
00:36:09Oh, I can guarantee it, Owen.
00:36:11She just got in here with the help of Mr. Hawthorne.
00:36:15She's his mistress.
00:36:16And she's trying to fool you.
00:36:18We're telling the truth.
00:36:19I swear it, Mr. Rook.
00:36:21Even Miss Carrington's most trusted staff wouldn't say something like that.
00:36:26Who exactly are you to the Carrington family?
00:36:28She's a nobody.
00:36:30A worthless piece of trash.
00:36:32She was dumped by her husband.
00:36:34And in jail up until last week.
00:36:36She hurt her own daughter and ended up behind bars.
00:36:39And the only reason that she got out is because she's sleeping with Mr. Hawthorne.
00:36:47Ethan!
00:36:48She's making all this mess to get back at you.
00:36:52She wants to ruin your $10 billion deal.
00:36:55Nicole, I never thought you'd pull a despicable scheme like this.
00:37:00Why hasn't security thrown this tramp out yet?
00:37:03Get out of that throne now.
00:37:05That is reserved for Miss Carrington.
00:37:06Owen.
00:37:09Are you really that stupid?
00:37:12Did she just insult Owen Rook?
00:37:18What are you all waiting for?
00:37:20Someone take care of this bitch now.
00:37:22We can't have Miss Carrington see this.
00:37:24You idiots.
00:37:25Kick her out now.
00:37:27Crawl back into the sewer where you belong, you disgusting fucking rat.
00:37:33Whew, okay.
00:37:34Owen Rook.
00:37:35Chief Investment Director and you can't even think for yourself.
00:37:40Pathetic.
00:37:41Do you have any idea how important I am to the Carrington Group?
00:37:44I was the head of this billion dollar contract before you.
00:37:48Hmm.
00:37:48Who the hell are you?
00:37:50Yeah.
00:37:51Head of Investments at the Carrington Group.
00:37:53And you're making what?
00:37:55You said billion dollar deals with a company that lacks integrity.
00:38:01Are you serious?
00:38:03How dare you touch our contract with your dirty hands.
00:38:06Put it down.
00:38:07Throw her out now.
00:38:16Throw her out now.
00:38:16She just threw garbage at me and you two idiots stood there.
00:38:27Get her out of here.
00:38:28Open your eyes, Owen.
00:38:30See exactly who I am.
00:38:32Now, am I going to have to fire you or are you going to resign?
00:38:37You crazy bitch.
00:38:40Have you lost your damn mind when you were in that prison?
00:38:44You think tearing up some paper is going to cancel a ten billion dollar deal?
00:38:49Pulling a stunt like this at such a classy event?
00:38:52How dare you?
00:38:53And insulting the very man who invited us here?
00:38:56You ought to be ashamed.
00:38:58Wrong.
00:38:59This entire event had nothing to do with this idiot.
00:39:03You're all here because I allowed it.
00:39:06Oh, really?
00:39:08If you're so powerful, then how did you end up in prison?
00:39:12Cool.
00:39:13Have you really lost your goddamn mind because I sent you to jail?
00:39:16You called me an idiot?
00:39:18Fine.
00:39:19I'll teach you a lesson myself.
00:39:25I'd like to see you try.
00:39:28Mr. Hawthorne, you got here just in time.
00:39:32This lunatic crashed the event and tore up our contract.
00:39:37Please, you need to make sure she gets arrested.
00:39:41See how angry Mr. Hawthorne is?
00:39:44You're done, you arrogant little.
00:39:47Watch your mouth, Owen.
00:39:52Mr. Brock, my mother and I just told you
00:39:55that woman is Mr. Hawthorne's mistress.
00:39:58And that is why he's siding with her.
00:40:01Mr. Hawthorne,
00:40:02you can't keep defending this woman.
00:40:05I know you're the most powerful attorney in the country,
00:40:07but you still work for the Carringtons.
00:40:09She ruined the gala
00:40:11and tore up our $10 billion contract.
00:40:14We all saw it.
00:40:15Stop protecting this bitch,
00:40:19or Miss Carrington will not forgive you when she arrives.
00:40:22That's right.
00:40:24She should be crippled and thrown out,
00:40:26so every low-life maggot like her will learn their place.
00:40:30I see.
00:40:31This whole event, it's a mess.
00:40:33Somebody's got to take the blame for it.
00:40:35Oh, great.
00:40:44Nicole, still keeping up the act.
00:40:48You know, after Ethan divorced you,
00:40:50you should have crawled into a gutter with your daughter and die.
00:40:54But no.
00:40:56Instead, you come here,
00:40:57and you make a fool out of yourself.
00:41:01You heard Mr. Hawthorne.
00:41:03Break her legs and toss her out of here.
00:41:06Oh.
00:41:10Mr. Hawthorne.
00:41:13Oh, Elaine.
00:41:16Are you looking at him?
00:41:17These bodyguards don't take orders from him.
00:41:26What the hell?
00:41:27Wait, what?
00:41:29Oh, what is it?
00:41:30Get off of me.
00:41:34Mr. Hawthorne, what the hell is going on?
00:41:38Owen, are you blind or just stupid?
00:41:41Every single security officer here
00:41:43takes orders from one person and one person only.
00:41:49The rightful heiress to the Carrington Group.
00:41:53That is impossible.
00:41:57Is she really Miss Carrington?
00:42:00The rightful heiress to the Carrington Group.
00:42:05What?
00:42:06Is she really Miss Carrington?
00:42:09Owen, brain's finally working, huh?
00:42:12Unfortunately, though, it is too late.
00:42:15Owen Rook, you're fired.
00:42:20No.
00:42:21No, you can't.
00:42:21Of course she can.
00:42:23Besides, did you really think
00:42:25that you could get away with taking bribes
00:42:27as the chief financial director?
00:42:30This Kate Lopez alone
00:42:33paid you nearly $50 million.
00:42:35Didn't she?
00:42:36We have all the proof.
00:42:38Financial records, offshore transfers.
00:42:41You're not just fired.
00:42:44You'll also be facing fraud charges.
00:42:46I hope you like prisons.
00:42:48You'll be staying there a very long time.
00:42:51Wait.
00:42:52What about our $10 billion deal?
00:42:55What do you think?
00:42:56Of course it's void.
00:42:58I told you, Ethan.
00:43:03Everything that you have,
00:43:05I gave it to you.
00:43:07No.
00:43:08This isn't happening.
00:43:09You are not Miss Carrington.
00:43:11Your last name might be Carrington,
00:43:13but she's my ex-wife.
00:43:14We were married for seven years.
00:43:17She was just locked in jail just last week.
00:43:20And now,
00:43:21she's the heiress of the richest family
00:43:23in the country?
00:43:24This is all a scam!
00:43:28You are not fooling us with this nonsense.
00:43:31She is nothing but a fraud,
00:43:33fresh out of prison.
00:43:35And she's trying to sleep her way to the top,
00:43:38you fucking little slut.
00:43:40There is no way you are Miss Carrington.
00:43:43But the security team did say
00:43:44they only answer to the Carrington heiress.
00:43:46That's because my dear ex-wife here
00:43:50cheated on me
00:43:51and spread her legs
00:43:53to Mr. Hawthorne.
00:43:55They
00:43:55have been working together
00:43:57to ruin my deal
00:43:58with the Carringtons.
00:43:59Oh.
00:44:00So that's what this is about.
00:44:03What now, Nicole?
00:44:05Just admit
00:44:06that you did all of this
00:44:07to get me back.
00:44:10And I might
00:44:11forgive you.
00:44:12You filthy bastard.
00:44:30Mr. Carrington.
00:44:33How dare you
00:44:35insult my daughter?
00:44:38How dare you
00:44:39insult my daughter?
00:44:40I-I-I didn't, sir.
00:44:42My daughter, Nicole Carrington,
00:44:44sacrificed her entire family fortune
00:44:46to support your businesses,
00:44:49to protect your
00:44:50fragile ego.
00:44:52She gave you
00:44:53your sweet daughter, Grace.
00:44:56How did you repay her?
00:45:00You sided with a
00:45:02lying viper
00:45:03who sent her to prison
00:45:04and insulted her
00:45:06at her own family banquet.
00:45:08I was gonna give you
00:45:18that $10 million
00:45:19contract
00:45:19because
00:45:20my daughter
00:45:21loved you.
00:45:22But now,
00:45:23you get
00:45:24nothing!
00:45:26Oh, my God.
00:45:27So,
00:45:28she is
00:45:28Ms. Carrington,
00:45:29the billionaire heiress.
00:45:33It's all ruined.
00:45:34I've humiliated
00:45:36the heiress
00:45:37to the country's
00:45:38wealthiest family.
00:45:39I'm finished.
00:45:42You get
00:45:42nothing!
00:45:47Dad.
00:45:49Dad.
00:45:50Hey, you should go rest.
00:45:52Okay?
00:45:52I got this.
00:45:53How can this be?
00:45:55My dear child,
00:45:57you have been wronged.

00:46:41Owen and those people

00:46:44Shameless?
00:46:45I can't believe
00:46:46they'd humiliate
00:46:47the heiress like that.
00:46:48They're done
00:46:48in California.
00:46:50No.
00:46:51In this country.
00:46:54Off of me!
00:47:02Off it.

00:47:11I will never
00:47:12work for Carrington Corp again.
00:47:14I want my $50 billion
00:47:16back now.
00:47:17No way.
00:47:18This is all your fault.
00:47:19If it wasn't for you,
00:47:20I wouldn't have lost my job.
00:47:21You're fucking crazy.
00:47:23I wish I'd never met you!
00:47:26How could Nicole
00:47:29be the heiress
00:47:30to the Carrington Group?
00:47:32You just dumped her.
00:47:34She is a filthy
00:47:35little sewer rat!
00:47:40Don't touch me.
00:47:42Leave me alone.
00:47:44Ethan,
00:47:44where are you going?
00:47:46What about
00:47:47the $10 billion contract?
00:47:48No!
00:47:58I let you leech
00:47:59onto me
00:48:00for seven years!
00:48:02Who are you
00:48:03to leave me?
00:48:05And who are you
00:48:05to take my daughter
00:48:06away from me?
00:48:07Who is this
00:48:08secret heiress?

00:48:11Mr. Carrington

00:48:15this secret heiress
00:48:17that willingly gave up
00:48:18this family fortune
00:48:19for seven years?
00:48:21Why would she do that?
00:48:23Congrats,
00:48:23Mr. Carter.
00:48:24You just lost
00:48:25the one person
00:48:26who will ever love you.

00:49:54Do you think
00:49:55Nicole would like it?
00:49:56What are you
00:49:57talking about?
00:49:58Did you forget
00:49:59that she acquired
00:50:00your company?
00:50:01Why are you
00:50:01so happy?
00:50:03Apologies for being
00:50:04late, everybody.
00:50:07What in the hell
00:50:07are you doing here?
00:50:10We're sorry,
00:50:11Ethan.
00:50:11We tried to stop
00:50:12this bitch.
00:50:13Yeah, we did not
00:50:13mean to let her
00:50:14just over a meeting
00:50:15with Ms. Carrington.
00:50:16Ethan, deal with this.
00:50:17How can you let
00:50:18your convict ex-wife
00:50:19in our meeting room?
00:50:20To avoid any
00:50:21further misunderstandings,
00:50:22please listen up
00:50:24for I really,
00:50:25really hate
00:50:25repeating myself.
00:50:27I am Nicole Carrington,
00:50:30Carrington Group's
00:50:31newly appointed CEO,
00:50:32and I've acquired
00:50:3251% of the Carter Group's
00:50:34shares, so starting
00:50:35today, I am your boss.
00:50:37Got it?
00:50:42Fuck.
00:50:44Ethan.
00:50:46I need to go talk
00:50:47to Nicole.
00:50:47What do you want, Elaine?
00:50:48Why do you think
00:50:49Nicole bought your company?
00:50:51She's trying to get
00:50:52revenge on us.
00:50:54Revenge.
00:50:55I know Nicole.
00:50:56She wouldn't do that.
00:50:57Are you insane?
00:51:00You think for a second
00:51:02that she would forgive you
00:51:03after everything
00:51:04that we did to her?
00:51:05Hurting Grace
00:51:06and humiliating her?
00:51:08Or did you just
00:51:09forget all that?
00:51:10Nicole has a kind heart.
00:51:12Grace almost drowned
00:51:13at the birthday party.
00:51:14That was our fault.
00:51:16I'll apologize to Nicole,
00:51:17and she'll forgive me.
00:51:19I know.
00:51:19Ethan,
00:51:20are you naive
00:51:22or just stupid?
00:51:24You broke her heart,
00:51:26mocked her,
00:51:27and then sent her
00:51:28straight to jail
00:51:29when I was framing her
00:51:30for drinking
00:51:31and hurting Grace.
00:51:32Wait.
00:51:34What do you mean
00:51:34framed her?
00:51:39It was you.
00:51:40You framed her!
00:51:43Nicole never drank.
00:51:44You were the one
00:51:44that locked my daughter
00:51:45in the car
00:51:46and almost killed her.
00:51:47It was you
00:51:47who got me
00:51:48the billion-dollar deal.
00:51:49It was you all along.
00:51:50Please, just let me go.
00:51:53What?
00:51:54You know,
00:51:56why are you caring
00:51:58so much about this now?
00:52:00You knew
00:52:01that she never drank.
00:52:03She defended herself,
00:52:05and that did not stop you
00:52:06from sending her
00:52:07straight to jail,
00:52:08did it?
00:52:09And now,
00:52:10all of a sudden,
00:52:11you want to play
00:52:11the role of the caring husband?
00:52:13Nicole wouldn't have divorced me
00:52:14if it was a misunderstanding.
00:52:18What did you do?
00:52:19So bad I may have done something.
00:52:23I just showed her
00:52:24a photo of you
00:52:25of me kissing.
00:52:26What are you talking about?
00:52:27I never did anything with you.
00:52:35How'd you get this photo?
00:52:35Well, I could tell
00:52:40you were still
00:52:41hung up on that bitch,
00:52:43so I drugged you.
00:52:48I've always trusted you.
00:52:50You were Nicole's best friend.
00:52:52Why do this to me?
00:52:54To us?
00:52:55You ruined my family!
00:52:57Because I am so much better than her!
00:53:01And I knew you were about to sign
00:53:02that big contract,
00:53:03so of course I wanted a piece of that.
00:53:06You know,
00:53:07Nicole has everything!
00:53:10She has the money!
00:53:12And the family!
00:53:14And I was just an assistant!
00:53:16You are out of your mind, Elaine!
00:53:21Security!
00:53:22Get this crazy woman out of here!
00:53:24I never want to see you again!
00:53:27Get him!
00:53:29Hands off!
00:53:33So what are you thinking
00:53:38for lunch today?
00:53:39I don't know.
00:53:39I actually haven't really thought about it yet.
00:53:40Nicole,
00:53:41I know the truth now.
00:53:43It was Elaine.
00:53:44She tricked me.
00:53:45She...
00:53:46She fooled us all.
00:53:48Wow!
00:53:49All right,
00:53:49you caught on.
00:53:50Congratulations.
00:53:52Nicole,
00:53:53please,
00:53:54I need to talk to you about something.
00:53:55Mr. Carter,
00:53:56I'm her lawyer.
00:53:57You can talk to me.
00:54:03I'll talk to her
00:54:04whenever I like to.
00:54:06She's my wife.
00:54:08No.
00:54:09You guys got divorced, remember?
00:54:10She's still the mother of my daughter,
00:54:12Grace,
00:54:13which we need to talk about,
00:54:14by the way.
00:54:15Nicole,
00:54:16I'll resolve this matter with Mr. Carter.
00:54:17Nicole,
00:54:18he doesn't have a say.
00:54:19I am more than qualified
00:54:20to handle this.
00:54:23What are these two doing?
00:54:26Nicole!
00:54:26Nicole!
00:54:30Too slow, Damon.
00:54:33It's cash only.
00:54:34Sorry.
00:54:35Okay,
00:54:35don't mind them.
00:54:36There you go.
00:54:37Thanks.
00:54:39Nicole,
00:54:40can I please have a moment with you
00:54:41for Grace?
00:54:47Damon,
00:54:47could you wait outside?
00:54:49Okay.
00:54:50We'll be right out there.
00:54:52Ethan,
00:54:53what about Grace did you want to talk about?
00:55:02Why did you hide your identity
00:55:03from me all these years?
00:55:05Okay,
00:55:05what does this have to do
00:55:06with our daughter?
00:55:06Everything!
00:55:07If you didn't hide your identity,
00:55:09I wouldn't have misunderstood you.
00:55:11And Grace,
00:55:12she would live in a complete loving home.
00:55:13No, no.
00:55:14No, no.
00:55:14What tore us apart
00:55:15was not my identity.
00:55:17It was your betrayal
00:55:19and shamelessness.
00:55:21You get that,
00:55:21right?
00:55:22I didn't betray you.
00:55:23It was that redhead bitch Elaine.
00:55:25She tricked me.
00:55:26Nothing,
00:55:27you know,
00:55:27happened between us.
00:55:29You're the only woman
00:55:30I've ever loved.
00:55:31Please,
00:55:32give me a chance
00:55:33to prove it to you.
00:55:35Since we're not talking
00:55:36about our daughter,
00:55:36I'm leaving.
00:55:38I
00:55:39made a mistake.
00:55:41I hurt you.
00:55:41I broke your heart.
00:55:42I called you a parasite.
00:55:44But I now know
00:55:45how much you sacrifice
00:55:46for our family.
00:55:48Mmm,
00:55:48do you?
00:55:49I love you.
00:55:51And I mean it.
00:55:57One more chance.
00:55:59Grace is only five.
00:56:01And I'm sure
00:56:01you
00:56:02wanted to
00:56:04grow up with a father, right?
00:56:07You're back at my feet
00:56:09because
00:56:10because you truly believe
00:56:12what you did was wrong.
00:56:15Not because of my family name,
00:56:17all that money and fortune.
00:56:22Of course.
00:56:24I never wanted us
00:56:25to end, Nicole.
00:56:27I don't even care about money.
00:56:29I can even transfer
00:56:30all my accounts
00:56:31and shares
00:56:33to you
00:56:34if that's what it's going to take
00:56:36to prove my love to you.
00:56:37You know,
00:56:39it's really tough
00:56:39to believe a word
00:56:40that you say.
00:56:42When I was framed,
00:56:44when I was beaten
00:56:46in that prison,
00:56:48when you
00:56:49threw me away,
00:56:51I didn't see any love
00:56:55in you then.
00:56:56I made a mistake.
00:56:59But I can right
00:57:00my wrongs
00:57:01with love.
00:57:03Please.
00:57:12Nicole!
00:57:13Cold, right?
00:57:15How's that feel?
00:57:15Does it hurt?
00:57:17You may be able
00:57:17to get rid of this stain,
00:57:19Ethan,
00:57:20but are you ever
00:57:20going to actually forget
00:57:21that feeling,
00:57:22that humiliation?
00:57:23No, right?
00:57:25Cool.
00:57:27I will make you
00:57:28come back to me.
00:57:29Mark my words.
00:57:34If I want something,
00:57:35I'll get it.
00:57:36As long as we have a tie,
00:57:38you'll come back
00:57:38to my side.
00:57:45Oh.
00:57:46What do you two want?
00:57:47Hmm?
00:57:48Sorry I didn't bring
00:57:49any coffee for you today.
00:57:50Oh, you've misunderstood,
00:57:51Miss Carrington.
00:57:52We're just delivering
00:57:53a message for Ethan.
00:57:54He would like
00:57:54to see you
00:57:55in the conference room.
00:57:57Okay.
00:58:06You're here.
00:58:11What is going on?
00:58:12Don't try to be
00:58:13mysterious.
00:58:13I do not have time
00:58:14for this right now,
00:58:15okay?
00:58:15Don't worry,
00:58:15this is a workplace.
00:58:18I'm not going
00:58:19to do anything bad.
00:58:20Nicole,
00:58:20I know you didn't trust me
00:58:35when I said
00:58:36I'm willing to give up
00:58:37all my money
00:58:38just to win you back.
00:58:43So here it is.
00:58:44every cent I have
00:58:46for you.
00:58:48Wow.
00:58:49I made a mistake.
00:59:02I hurt you.
00:59:03Mm-hmm.
00:59:04All my cards are here
00:59:11on the table.
00:59:12All I ask
00:59:13is to have another chance
00:59:16to win you back.
00:59:18All your money.
00:59:20That is
00:59:21all of your cards
00:59:23on the table?
00:59:24Please,
00:59:25Nicole,
00:59:26I know you don't understand.
00:59:28I was sick
00:59:30of being poor,
00:59:32being a nobody.
00:59:34So money
00:59:35was important to me.
00:59:39For you,
00:59:40I'm willing
00:59:41to give it all up.
00:59:43Can we start over?
00:59:46Think about
00:59:46what we've been through.
00:59:48Think about grace.
00:59:50I think we both know
00:59:52that this is not
00:59:53near enough money
00:59:54to make me forgive you.
00:59:56Looks like you
00:59:57are trying to
00:59:59trying to start a fire.
01:00:02So you feel it too, huh?
01:00:04The passion?
01:00:05I feel it, definitely.
01:00:08Um,
01:00:08what do you say
01:00:09we, um,
01:00:11make this part exciting?
01:00:14Isn't that a little
01:00:15too much?
01:00:16No.
01:00:19Come on.
01:00:21We used to do this
01:00:22all the time,
01:00:23didn't we?
01:00:24We used to
01:00:25be young
01:00:27and a wild
01:00:28fun.

01:02:20I'm always on my guard around him.
01:02:22Yeah.
01:02:23Mr. Attorney,
01:02:24my ex-husband just harassed me
01:02:26in my workplace.
01:02:27Would you mind calling the police,
01:02:28filing a report for me?
01:02:30I am on it,
01:02:31Miss CEO.
01:02:32Thank you!
01:02:39Fuck!
01:02:40Ethan Carter!
01:02:42You're under arrest
01:02:43for workplace sexual harassment.
01:02:45What?
01:02:46You're coming with us, sir.
01:02:47I never
01:02:49sexually insulted anybody,
01:02:50officer.
01:02:51This is a mistake.
01:02:52You saved it for the jury.
01:02:54Take the money, take the money.
01:02:55There's money on the table.
01:02:57Money for enough of all three of us.
01:02:59Listen,
01:02:59I have money.
01:03:00Lots of money.
01:03:01Come on.
01:03:03I thought you forgave me, Nicole.
01:03:06No, I'm just giving you
01:03:07a taste of your own medicine.
01:03:08Betrayed and sent to prison
01:03:09by the person you once loved most.
01:03:12How's it feel?
01:03:13I can't go to prison.
01:03:15People will make fun of Grace
01:03:16if I go to prison.
01:03:17They'll say both of her parents
01:03:18are cons!
01:03:19Grace is strong
01:03:20and brave,
01:03:21unlike you.
01:03:23Selfish coward.
01:03:26Hey,
01:03:26don't move.
01:03:30I'll protect Grace.
01:03:31Don't you worry.
01:03:33Let's go.
01:03:34Oh, I'm in a good mood.
01:03:45I'm in the best mood, actually.
01:03:47You know what?
01:03:48It's been cited.
01:03:49You have to stick with me
01:03:51until it hits the spot.
01:03:54I will be here until the end.
01:03:57Deal.
01:03:58Am I just the biggest idiot?
01:04:04You know,
01:04:04I left my dad,
01:04:06my only family,
01:04:08for seven years.
01:04:10For what?
01:04:12For some selfish bastard
01:04:15who sent me to prison.
01:04:18To prison.
01:04:19He did that.
01:04:20You know,
01:04:20he didn't even bat an eye.
01:04:21He didn't care.
01:04:23I don't know
01:04:23how I'm supposed
01:04:24to face my dad again.
01:04:25I'm stupid.
01:04:27Nicole,
01:04:28you're back now.
01:04:31That's all that matters.
01:04:36I'm really glad
01:04:37that you're still my friend
01:04:38after all these years.
01:04:40Of course.
01:04:44So,
01:04:45enough about that.
01:04:47What's new with you, hmm?
01:04:49Got anybody special in your life?
01:04:51No.
01:04:53I'm single.
01:04:54The girl I loved
01:04:57left and married
01:04:59some asshole
01:04:59seven years ago.
01:05:00Seven years?

01:05:03Come on.
01:05:03But you're such
01:05:04a good-looking guy.
01:05:05How could you do that?
01:05:08Oh, man.
01:05:09I guess we've both
01:05:09been going through it, huh?
01:05:11Oh, it's
01:05:12not so bad.
01:05:13I mean,

01:10:06I left early for work.
01:10:22I had a meeting.
01:10:26Think you can run away from me that easily, Miss Nicole Carrington?
01:10:29Okay, it's been days, and I haven't heard from Damon.
01:10:42Is he embarrassed?
01:10:44Miss Carrington, you're still home?
01:10:46Today's the parent-teacher event at Grace's school.
01:10:49What?
01:10:50No, Grace never told me anything about that.
01:10:52Her teachers didn't either.
01:10:53We need to hurry.
01:10:54Okay.
01:10:57You can't join the family show.
01:10:59You don't even have a dad.
01:11:01I do have a dad.
01:11:04You don't even have a dad.
01:11:06I do have a dad.
01:11:08You liar.
01:11:09I've never seen your dad.
01:11:11That's right.
01:11:13Hey.
01:11:14What are you two twerps saying to my daughter?
01:11:17Daddy.
01:11:19Apologize to her now.
01:11:21I'm sorry.
01:11:22I'm sorry I was mean.
01:11:29Thank you, Uncle Damon.
01:11:30Did you rehearse for the show at home?
01:11:33Of course.
01:11:34I take princesses' orders very seriously.
01:11:44All right.
01:11:45You guys ready?
01:11:46One, two, three.
01:11:51Oh, I'm coming home.
01:11:54I'm coming home.
01:11:57To you.
01:12:01Oh, I'm coming home.
01:12:06I'm coming home.
01:12:08Oh, well, if Mommy's here, why don't we make it a family photo?
01:12:38Mommy, you go first. I have to talk to Uncle Damon about something.
01:12:56What? No, when did you guys get so close?
01:13:00That's a secret between Uncle Damon and me.
01:13:03Yeah, I'll send her inside as soon as we're done. Just don't worry.
01:13:07Now go.
01:13:08Okay, I'm going.
01:13:16Uncle Damon, you want to go on a date with my mommy, right?
01:13:21I know you love my mommy. I want to help you out.
01:13:23I don't just want to go on a date with your mommy. If it's okay with you, may I have the honor of being your dad, Grace?
01:13:32Uncle Damon, I really, really want you to be my dad. Mommy's birthday is this weekend, and I know this is her birthday wish, too.
01:13:45Well, then I'll just have to ask Miss Grace for help with Miss Carrington.
01:13:51Thank you, swear.
01:13:51Yeah, I get that.
01:14:02Happy birthday, mommy. What did you wish for?
01:14:06I just wish for you to be happy and healthy.
01:14:09It's not mommy ever wanted.
01:14:10You're the best mommy ever.
01:14:15Where are we going?
01:14:16Just follow me, mommy. I have a surprise gift for you.
01:14:18You what?
01:14:19Okay.
01:14:33Follow me, mommy.
01:14:36Oh, Grace. Did you do all this?
01:14:39Yes, mommy.
01:14:41Oh, it's beautiful. Thank you. Wow.
01:14:44Now close your eyes, and I'll tell you what the surprise gift is.
01:14:49I close my eye?
01:14:52Okay, eyes are closed. What's going on? What now?
01:14:55I want to invite mommy to a dance.
01:14:58You want me to dance with you with my eyes closed?
01:15:01That's right. I'll lead you.
01:15:03Okay. All right. Okay. Where are we going?
01:15:14Happy birthday, Nicole.
01:15:30So, what is all this? Can I explain?
01:15:34Well, I mean, you never explained that night after you ran away.
01:15:38I know. I know. I'm sorry. I just...
01:15:41I just found out that someone had feelings for me, and I didn't really know how to react.
01:15:50Why? Did you not like that somebody?
01:15:55No, no, no, no. Of course I do. I just...
01:15:58I don't... Don't you think it's weird for two best friends to become more than that?
01:16:05From the moment I met you, Nicole, I knew I never wanted to just be friends.
01:16:11From the moment you met me?
01:16:14Yeah.
01:16:14Damon, we've been friends since we were kids. You never said anything.
01:16:19I know, and I think about it every day, Nicole. I just...
01:16:25I think about when we were young, and I was such an idiot. I never took the leap.
01:16:30And maybe if I had, we could have spent the last seven years together.
01:16:39So you're asking for my hand now?
01:16:41Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I am. But I know your marriage just ended, and how deeply hurt you are.
01:16:51And it's not my place to tell you how or when to get over that pain.
01:16:57I just... I need you to know... there's no one else from me but you.
01:17:09There's no one else from me but you.
01:17:11I... I just realized... did you become a lawyer because of me?
01:17:20What?
01:17:21What? What did...
01:17:23Wait, give it back. Give it back. Give it back.
01:17:24I want to kiss this hot, sexy lawyer?
01:17:29This again?
01:17:29Yeah.
01:17:30Hey, I...
01:17:32Your dream was to kiss a hot and sexy lawyer. What was I supposed to do? I was just a nerd.
01:17:38Who changes their whole career path based on a silly joke? Who does that?
01:17:46Well, it doesn't matter what I've become in this life.
01:17:53One thing's never changed. I'm all yours. I always have been. I always will be.
01:18:08And after that night, I've thought about this moment for a long, long time.
01:18:25And?
01:18:28And.
01:18:31I love you too.
01:18:38I love you too.
