00:00:00Hey, this is Richard Allenton. I can't answer the phone right now, so please leave a message.
00:00:14Hey, Grandpa.
00:00:18It's one to set me up on a bunch of blind dates with these goody-two-shoe women.
00:00:24But to trick me into thinking I'm coming to a business meeting that's actually a blind date, that's low.
00:00:30Let's hope this one's different.
00:00:36I don't know what to say to this guy.
00:00:39I don't know how to talk to rich people.
00:00:41Be sexy.
00:00:43Darling, just act better than everyone else in the room.
00:00:47And being sexy is easy.
00:00:49Bite your lip, push up the girls.
00:00:51It works every time.
00:00:53Wait, what was it?
00:00:54And don't forget, these rich men get bored easily.
00:00:58So challenge them, be bold, and put them on the spot.
00:01:01I don't think I can do this.
00:01:04The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner I pay you for your mother's surgery.
00:01:09It's your call.
00:01:11What is it?
00:01:12I don't know.
00:01:24Oh.
00:01:24Are you going to stare at me all night or be a gentleman and get my seat, big boy?
00:01:44Of course.
00:01:45Sorry, I've been set up with many girls before, but none like you.
00:01:58You're so...
00:01:59Rich?
00:02:01Sexy?
00:02:02Frankly, yes.
00:02:05Sorry, what was your name?
00:02:09Valentina Kingsley.
00:02:11And you are?
00:02:12Blaine Ellington, CEO of Ellington Incorporated.
00:02:17And this is a successful company?
00:02:20It's not ringing any bells.
00:02:23Waiter?
00:02:24Yes, Mr. Ellington.
00:02:25You still have the Chateau Petrus on the shelf, yes?
00:02:29Yes, of course.
00:02:30If so, we'll have two bottles.
00:02:33It's $60,000 per bottle, sir.
00:02:36You want two?
00:02:38Actually, I'm pretty thirsty.
00:02:40You better bring three.
00:02:43Yes, of course, right away, sir.
00:02:50And what do you do, Valentina Kingsley?
00:02:53I invest.
00:02:55In what?
00:02:57In everything.
00:03:00What am I not in?
00:03:01In businesses, charities.
00:03:05I see.
00:03:08And you live in the city?
00:03:11The city.
00:03:13The hills.
00:03:14My yacht.
00:03:17My private island.
00:03:19I'm everywhere, darling.
00:03:21You're so impressive.
00:03:25So unlike the other girls I've seen.
00:03:28Hmm.
00:03:28Doesn't surprise me.
00:03:29I'm one of a kind.
00:03:35Um, you've got a little, uh...
00:03:49Kurt?
00:03:50Kurt?
00:03:51What's my manager doing here?
00:03:54Blaine!
00:03:55My business dinner just ended.
00:03:59The presentation for the China branch.
00:04:00I'm good.
00:04:01Amazing.
00:04:02You're the best, Kurt.
00:04:02Well, I just, uh, won't keep you two.
00:04:04I just wanted to say hi.
00:04:07Rolls pedals for a business dinner?
00:04:09Ended up being a blind date.
00:04:10Ah, classic.
00:04:12All right, well, you two have fun.
00:04:20I've got to be honest with you.
00:04:22You're so unlike any of the girls I've been with.
00:04:28Would you like to come to my place?
00:04:30I can take this chance to get closer to the AI code.
00:04:33Absolutely.
00:04:40Whoa.
00:04:43Welcome to my home.
00:04:45After you.
00:04:45Yeah.
00:04:52Oh, my.
00:05:11You like what you say?
00:05:14You're getting there, darling.
00:05:15Nothing like the Calvin Klein model I dated, but...
00:05:18Well, then, shall we get started?
00:05:24Uh, not so fast.
00:05:28Okay, a little foreplay?
00:05:29I did not think that at all.
00:05:31How am I supposed to find the drive when he's trying to suck my face off?
00:05:39Looking for something?
00:05:41Oh, um...
00:05:42I should have known that was your style.
00:05:49Oh, yes, darling.
00:05:52Ugh, I can't believe people are actually into this.
00:05:55I'm not used to being the one tied up.
00:05:57It's usually the other way around.
00:06:04Valentina?
00:06:06Patience, darling.
00:06:07I'm building the suspense.
00:06:09Ah, I see.
00:06:12Right.
00:06:13And...
00:06:14You say guys actually like this?
00:06:17Oh, yes.
00:06:18It's very popular with the manly men in France.
00:06:24How long does it take for something to actually happen?
00:06:30That's...
00:06:31That's new.
00:06:35The painting!
00:06:36Maybe there's a safe behind there.
00:06:38Oh, uh...
00:06:40Sorry, this painting caught my eye.
00:06:42It looks exactly like...
00:06:44The one in my mansion in Sweden.
00:06:48It's where I keep my safe.
00:06:50Huh.
00:06:51People actually still hide things behind paintings?
00:06:54Thought that was only in the movies.
00:06:56Oh, no.
00:06:57It's quite popular.
00:06:59Where do you hide your...
00:07:01Luxurious safekeepings?
00:07:02In a super...
00:07:05Super, super secret hiding place.
00:07:08Oh, come on.
00:07:11Now, why don't you come over here and...
00:07:13Get this thing started.
00:07:15Oh, uh...
00:07:15Most unfortunate.
00:07:17I'm...
00:07:17I'm getting the utmost important business call.
00:07:20And I must take it.
00:07:22Right now?
00:07:23What?
00:07:23What about me?
00:07:26Valentina!
00:07:26Wait!
00:07:31Untie me!
00:07:37Ew.
00:07:38Really, Blaine?
00:07:40What?
00:07:41You and your models.
00:07:44Last night was not a model.
00:07:47I was actually impressed.
00:07:49Did I hear it right?
00:07:52Blaine actually had a date he liked.
00:07:54It was fantastic.
00:07:55The other girls, they're so boring.
00:07:59But this one, she's a mystery I can't quite crack.
00:08:03I must see her again.
00:08:05These dates aren't about you having sexy adventures.
00:08:08It's about you finding a wife you can settle down with and running the company.
00:08:14These dates aren't about you having sexy adventures.
00:08:16It's about you finding a wife you can settle down with and running the company.
00:08:23Grandfather.
00:08:24Hmm?
00:08:24Listen to him.
00:08:26He's not ready to be the face of Ellington.
00:08:28I am much more qualified.
00:08:29Okay, yeah.
00:08:31I'm done having this conversation with you, dear.
00:08:34No, no, no, no.
00:08:36Look, you do great work right where you are.
00:08:39Right?
00:08:40Yeah, you weren't meant to be some CEO.
00:08:43No, but Blaine.
00:08:44Blaine will learn in time.
00:08:47Whatever.
00:08:47Have fun with your little girlfriend, Blaine.
00:08:50Blaine, I have actual work to attend to.
00:08:53Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:08:58Thanks.
00:09:05Hello?
00:09:06How's our plan going, darling?
00:09:10To perfection.
00:09:12She already has Blaine wrapped around her finger.
00:09:15It won't be long until he slips up, and I can step in and take my throne as Ellington's CEO.
00:09:20Brilliant.
00:09:23It's all coming together perfectly.
00:09:26And the VR tech you're developing, it'll be ready in time when I trade the AI code, right?
00:09:30Oh, yes, it'll be ready.
00:09:32Soon we'll be queens of the tech world.
00:09:47What's he doing here?
00:09:49Speaking of girls, I think I know who has your new assistant.
00:09:53Sorry.
00:09:54I'm fine.
00:09:57Ariel.
00:09:59My name.
00:10:00You dropped your badge.
00:10:08There you go.
00:10:10Thanks.
00:10:17She's amazing.
00:10:21Are you playing hide-and-seek?
00:10:22Is that where you're late?
00:10:23Can I hide next?
00:10:25No, I was dropping your mom off at the hospital.
00:10:27Oh, that was unexpectedly personal.
00:10:29Wait, oh my god, is she okay?
00:10:31Should I bring her a fruit basket?
00:10:33She's just getting some tests done.
00:10:34Oh, thank goodness.
00:10:36Hey, by the way, did you hear?
00:10:39Our new CEO is looking for a personal assistant.
00:10:41Are you going to apply?
00:10:42I'm good where I am.
00:10:43All the girls are applying.
00:10:45Everyone wants to get close to our boss.
00:10:46I'm the best employee in our department, Ariel.
00:10:48I think this position is yours.
00:10:59He's gorgeous.
00:11:01I wouldn't mind looking at that hunk of man all day.
00:11:05Attention, everyone.
00:11:06My name is Blaine, and I am the new CEO.
00:11:10I will try my best to my father, but I ask for patience as I adjust to the new role.
00:11:17And since he is adjusting to this new role, I've decided to assign him a new assistant.
00:11:23Not me, not me, not me.
00:11:25Blaine, meet your new assistant, Ariel.
00:11:28All right, everyone, back to work.
00:11:42You look exactly like...
00:11:46Oh, my God, my cover's blown.
00:11:51Kurt described.
00:11:53Clean, organized desk, confident composure.
00:11:58There'd be a pay raise, of course.
00:12:01This could get me closer to finding the code.
00:12:04When do I start?
00:12:06Perfect.
00:12:07First thing I need help with is there's this file.
00:12:10Oh, um, gotta take a phone call.
00:12:13Send it to me in an email.
00:12:17Ariel wants to meet you again.
00:12:20Really?
00:12:21Also, I got you a second number.
00:12:24Just click the link to connect it, so from now on, you're the one he'll be calling.
00:12:28Great.
00:12:34Hmm.
00:12:34New number, huh?
00:12:39Hello?
00:12:40Hello, Ariel.
00:12:41This is Dr. Westphal.
00:12:42We just got your mother's results.
00:12:44It's not what we hoped.
00:12:50So we need to move quickly if we want that experimental procedure to be a success.
00:12:55Okay, I understand.
00:12:57I'll come up with the money for it soon.
00:13:00Oh, perfect timing.
00:13:12I just finished dinner.
00:13:14Mom, you should be in bed.
00:13:16Honey, I'm fine.
00:13:17Besides, you've been working all day.
00:13:19You shouldn't have to cook for yourself.
00:13:21Mom, please.
00:13:22Honey, sit down.
00:13:26Hmm.
00:13:27The doctor called?
00:13:40He says it's gotten worse.
00:13:41Hush, hush, hush, hush.
00:13:43Hush.
00:13:43None of that talk, okay?
00:13:46Mom.
00:13:47Eat before your food gets cold.
00:13:49It's time for the second date, darling.
00:14:06Are you ready?
00:14:09Yeah.
00:14:12Mom, I have to leave for work.
00:14:14I'll make it to go.
00:14:15Okay.
00:14:19Well, where am I?
00:14:37Valentina!
00:14:39Blaine!
00:14:41Darling, what is this dreadful place?
00:14:44Do you intend to have me killed?
00:14:45No, not at all.
00:14:46This place is special.
00:14:49Follow me.
00:15:02How many more are?
00:15:03We're almost there.
00:15:04Come on.
00:15:04Wow.
00:15:30Did you look at that view?
00:15:31I bet you bring all your models up here.
00:15:35Just you, actually.
00:15:37I discovered this place after my father died.
00:15:42You finally joined?
00:15:43Yeah.
00:15:45I've been thrown into the CEO position, and I'm a bit in over my head,
00:15:51so I never really get a chance to myself except when I come here.
00:15:58I'm so sorry.
00:16:01My mom is sick.
00:16:09She needs experimental surgery.
00:16:12Just saying how it feels, Tip.
00:16:19Want to get away?
00:16:20Yeah.
00:16:22I'm used to getting everything, but this is one thing that money can't buy.
00:16:30I'm so sorry about your mom.
00:16:32Thanks.
00:16:32She's all I've got.
00:16:37I don't want to say goodbye to her.
00:16:49Hey, who's out here?
00:16:54What's happening?
00:16:54Technically, we're not supposed to be up here.
00:16:57What?
00:16:58Run.
00:17:06Hey!
00:17:09No!
00:17:15What was that?
00:17:17That was fun.
00:17:17Did Calvin Klein take you on any dates that adventurous?
00:17:21No.
00:17:22I suppose not.
00:17:25I haven't felt this way in a really long time.
00:17:30I can be myself around you.
00:17:33I feel the same way.
00:17:35Will you be my girlfriend, Valentina?
00:17:37That's right.
00:17:38I'm supposed to be Valentina.
00:17:39I can't do this to him.
00:17:44But I need to pay for my mom's surgery.
00:17:49I'd love to.
00:17:54Well, well, well.
00:17:57Martina, what are you doing here?
00:18:00I heard you were actually acting like a big boy CEO.
00:18:04Had to see it for myself.
00:18:05Well, that blind date went so well the other night,
00:18:09it got me thinking maybe grandfather was right.
00:18:12Is that so?
00:18:14Blaine's got himself a little girlfriend?
00:18:16That's right.
00:18:17Wow.
00:18:18What's she like?
00:18:19She's funny, mysterious, confident, hardworking, charitable.
00:18:26She's the whole package.
00:18:28Sounds like one that dad actually would have approved of.
00:18:31I'd love to meet her.
00:18:32Oh, sorry, Mr. Ellington.
00:18:36Is this about time?
00:18:37No, not at all.
00:18:38My sister just came to visit.
00:18:40Martina, this is my new assistant, Ariel.
00:18:43Martina, nice to meet you.
00:18:45Likewise.
00:18:46Glad to see my brother as someone to make sure this launch goes smoothly.
00:18:50Don't you worry.
00:18:51I got this.
00:18:52Well, after you lost the keys to the Maserati,
00:18:54I'm not so sure that you won't lose this new AI tech that we need.
00:18:57I didn't lose the keys to the Maserati.
00:18:59And don't you worry.
00:19:00I've got the codes right here on this drive,
00:19:04and I'm keeping it safe.
00:19:05Glad to hear you're doing that.
00:19:24I have wasted enough time.
00:19:28Now you know exactly where it is.
00:19:31Get it.
00:19:31All right, where's that drive?
00:19:46Are you kidding?
00:19:49There's nothing in here.
00:19:50They're coming in.
00:20:04Crap.
00:20:06How about we celebrate your China contract with a nice glass of whiskey?
00:20:10You don't twist my arm.
00:20:12You don't twist my arm.
00:20:14No, no, no.
00:20:15No.
00:20:15No.
00:20:15No.
00:20:16No.
00:20:17No.
00:20:18No.
00:20:19No.
00:20:19No.
00:20:20No.
00:20:20No.
00:20:22Oh, yeah.
00:20:27Sarah?
00:20:28Cheers.
00:20:28Don't you guys have that meeting with China right now?
00:20:33Right.
00:20:34Right.
00:20:34Right.
00:20:35After that.
00:20:36Yeah.
00:20:44Whew.
00:20:45That was close.
00:20:45Hey, girlfriend.
00:20:47Can I ask you your advice on something?
00:20:54Sure.
00:20:55What's going on?
00:20:56So I have this friend who is having boy problems.
00:20:59Aren't we all?
00:21:00So she has a crush on her boss and she doesn't know what to do about it because of the whole
00:21:05workplace relationship thing.
00:21:06How did she find out I like Blaine?
00:21:09Wait, I don't like Blaine.
00:21:10But he deserves to know though, right?
00:21:12You're going to tell him?
00:21:13I mean, I don't know because if I tell Kurt I like him and he doesn't like me and then
00:21:17it's so totally awkward and so he fires me because it's so totally awkward.
00:21:22Wait, you like Kurt?
00:21:24I gotta go.
00:21:25What?
00:21:26Ring, ring.
00:21:27Oh, I'm getting a good call.
00:21:30Ring, ring.
00:21:31Ring, ring.
00:21:32Ring, ring.
00:21:36Ariel.
00:21:38Yes, Mr. Ellington?
00:21:39I need your personal help.
00:21:41Well, I am your personal assistant.
00:21:53I've never got...
00:21:54Wow, really?
00:21:55Um, I mean, yeah.
00:21:58First girlfriend, first gift.
00:22:00Checks out.
00:22:01So, I need your help to figure out which you think a woman would prefer.
00:22:17Oh my God, I'm going to be wearing that?
00:22:20Sorry?
00:22:21Uh, your girlfriend's going to be wearing that?
00:22:24Yeah.
00:22:25It's pretty nice, right?
00:22:27Well, I mean, it's option one.
00:22:30Do you think she'll like it?
00:22:32Um, well, what's your girlfriend like?
00:22:35What are her tastes?
00:22:38Um, sophisticated, generous, gorgeous, generous, gorgeous.
00:22:46The whole world slows down whenever she walks into a room.
00:22:52I see.
00:22:53And that's even more revealing than the first one.
00:23:04Yeah.
00:23:05Yeah.
00:23:05Well, this is big in Europe.
00:23:07Between you and me, I'm rooting for this guy.
00:23:10I see.
00:23:10Do you have anything more modest?
00:23:15Hmm.
00:23:16Modest?
00:23:16Yeah, that seems to be the style I've been seeing these days.
00:23:22With the rich folk, at least.
00:23:25You know, now that you say it, I think I do have something.
00:23:28What do you think?
00:23:38I think she'd really like that.
00:23:41Can I have a margarita?
00:23:50You can't be serious, darling.
00:23:53She'll have a French 75 with Konya.
00:23:56Flora, what are you doing here?
00:23:58Making sure you look the part.
00:24:00You want to make the money for your dear mother, don't you?
00:24:03Yes, more than anything.
00:24:05Then you need to keep your eyes on the prize.
00:24:08We need to get our hands on that code fast.
00:24:11Once I do, I can fund your mother's surgery.
00:24:13But until then, we're in this together.
00:24:16Yes?
00:24:18Yeah.
00:24:20Excellent.
00:24:21Now, what's your game plan?
00:24:23Make him even more vulnerable?
00:24:25And get him to tell me where the code is.
00:24:28And how do you suppose you'll do that?
00:24:32Um...
00:24:32Be nice?
00:24:37Your ignorance is both cute and annoying.
00:24:41No.
00:24:43A man like Blaine Ellington is going to become vulnerable.
00:24:47Drinking with him.
00:24:49And going to bed with him.
00:24:52Right.
00:24:52I can do that.
00:24:56I hope so.
00:24:57Because he's coming this way.
00:25:01Get the code soon, honey.
00:25:04For your mother.
00:25:06Okay?
00:25:08Oh!
00:25:10And darling,
00:25:11have fun.
00:25:12Valentina.
00:25:20How are you?
00:25:22Wonderful, love.
00:25:23I've been looking forward to this all day.
00:25:25Is that so?
00:25:27Indeed.
00:25:28I was so distracted.
00:25:31It affected my croquet score.
00:25:33Oh, no.
00:25:33Distracted over little old me.
00:25:35Yes.
00:25:36I must know everything about you.
00:25:39Well, what would you like to know?
00:25:42Everything.
00:25:43Well, I don't know about everything.
00:25:46It might take some time for me to open up.
00:25:48Well, maybe after a few drinks.
00:25:51Only if you can keep up.
00:25:53See, I don't really start talking until after a lot of drinking.
00:25:57Oh, no.
00:25:58Start talking until after a lot of drinking.
00:26:00Well, here goes nothing.
00:26:08Oh, man.
00:26:11Oh.
00:26:13That's really good.
00:26:15Let's stop.
00:26:16That's not an act.
00:26:17That's funny.
00:26:18Let's stop.
00:26:20You know, my sister is implying today that I should tell someone where my new AI code
00:26:30is because I forget stuff.
00:26:33Are you forgetful?
00:26:37I mean, yeah.
00:26:39Can you actually believe I lost the keys to a Maserati?
00:26:43Really?
00:26:44Yeah.
00:26:45It cost me $10,000 just to get them re-keyed.
00:26:49Which is why I should probably tell someone in case I do forget.
00:26:56So maybe I should tell you because you're so awesome and trustworthy.
00:27:02Well, if you'd like, go ahead.
00:27:04I'll tell you first.
00:27:11I'm going to hit the men's room.
00:27:17This is it.
00:27:19All I need to do is ask him where the code is and my mission is over.
00:27:23Nothing can stop me now.
00:27:25Ariel?
00:27:25Except my ex-boyfriend.
00:27:31I don't know what you're talking about, darling.
00:27:33I don't know this Ariel.
00:27:36No, no, no, no, no.
00:27:38You are definitely Ariel.
00:27:42But what are you doing in a place like this?
00:27:45You're poor.
00:27:46Fine.
00:27:47Please leave, Max.
00:27:49It's Maximilian now.
00:27:50Because I'm Max and I make millions.
00:27:54Whatever.
00:27:55Please.
00:27:55I'm begging you.
00:27:56Look at you.
00:27:58You look so much better.
00:28:00You look...
00:28:02Oh, what's that word?
00:28:04Rich?
00:28:05Please.
00:28:05I don't know if you've been keeping up with my life lately,
00:28:08but I've become very rich.
00:28:11Yes.
00:28:11You've sent me 50 messages about it.
00:28:1350 messages about it.
00:28:14I had to block your number.
00:28:16Oh.
00:28:16Yeah, that's right.
00:28:18Please, I'll do whatever you want, okay?
00:28:20I just...
00:28:21How about a kiss for old time's sake?
00:28:25You know, Ariel, sometimes I reminisce on our poor days together.
00:28:30This isn't happening.
00:28:32Do you not remember when we'd go and get Taco Tuesday
00:28:34at that Mexican restaurant and eat unlimited discount tacos?
00:28:40I'm very...
00:28:41Don't you have a girlfriend?
00:28:44Yes, he does.
00:28:45A situationship at best.
00:28:47Let go, Max.
00:28:49Nobody walks away from Maximilian Fletcher.
00:28:52Get off of him.
00:28:56Blaine Ellington?
00:28:58Max Fletcher.
00:28:59Maximilian?
00:29:00What are you doing with that peasant?
00:29:03That's my girlfriend you're talking about.
00:29:05Blaine Ellington.
00:29:06Getting my sloppy seconds.
00:29:08This isn't over.
00:29:23Come on, Regina.
00:29:32Just stay away from my man, skink.
00:29:34He's actually trying to.
00:29:37Are you okay?
00:29:41Yeah, I think so.
00:29:43We gotta get out of here.
00:29:45This isn't good.
00:29:46Care to explain this?
00:29:56I assume the article does a good job.
00:29:59Getting into a fist altercation in a bar?
00:30:05What are you, a child?
00:30:06Not a child.
00:30:07But he started it.
00:30:08Well, I don't care who started it.
00:30:11Ellington is a company based in family values.
00:30:16I was out with my girlfriend trying to uphold those family values.
00:30:20No, no, no, don't, don't, don't, don't.
00:30:21Don't play the girlfriend card, okay?
00:30:23The onus is you on this, pal.
00:30:24Well, you know, maybe, maybe, maybe your sister was right.
00:30:28Your sister was right.
00:30:30Maybe you're too much of a risk, even though you say you've settled down.
00:30:34Either way, I just hope all this boils over next time we talk.
00:30:40What would your father think?
00:30:54Unasy lies the head that wears a crown.
00:31:02What is that?
00:31:03Some family motto I'm not aware of?
00:31:05It's Shakespeare, you idiot.
00:31:07Ah.
00:31:08What are you doing here?
00:31:09You don't want any of this.
00:31:11You don't know what I want.
00:31:14Uh, booze and bimbos?
00:31:16Or does page one of the paper say something different?
00:31:19She's not a bimbo.
00:31:22Then don't treat her like one.
00:31:25Treat her like dad treated mom.
00:31:30How do you mean?
00:31:33Bring her completely into your life.
00:31:36Let her know everything about you.
00:31:38I'm trying to.
00:31:40Just last night, we were sharing everything with each other.
00:31:42How can you share more?
00:31:45Behind most men's success is a strong woman.
00:31:48I will.
00:31:50I'm going to get close to this woman.
00:31:52You'll see.
00:31:53Hmm.
00:31:53And you will be like two lovely berries molded onto one.
00:31:58Shakespeare.
00:32:01Yeah.
00:32:02Ow.
00:32:02Martina, how are you?
00:32:15How am I?
00:32:17Yeah.
00:32:18How are you?
00:32:19I am annoyed.
00:32:20Time is...
00:32:20Understand?
00:32:22Mm-hmm.
00:32:22We chose you because we thought you could get the job done.
00:32:25But now I'm not so sure.
00:32:26Wait.
00:32:30Oh my God.
00:32:31Do you have feelings for him?
00:32:33What?
00:32:34No.
00:32:34I hope not.
00:32:36Because you have four days to get that code?
00:32:38Or you can say bye to mommy.
00:32:41Other than that...
00:32:43I am fine.
00:32:44Thanks for asking.
00:32:45Happy hump day, bestie!
00:32:58It's Tuesday, Hannah.
00:33:00Oh, right.
00:33:02Hey, how's your guy trouble coming?
00:33:03Better.
00:33:05And worse.
00:33:07That sounds super complicated.
00:33:09You have no idea.
00:33:11Aaron?
00:33:11Can you come in here?
00:33:14Can you come in here?
00:33:15I'll be right there.
00:33:16Good thing you've got work to distract you.
00:33:19Good thing.
00:33:26You have the file for China branch?
00:33:29Yeah.
00:33:37Long night.
00:33:37You know what?
00:33:43Let's forget about the file.
00:33:54Let's just close our eyes for, um, ten minutes.
00:33:58That's an order.
00:34:08Okay.
00:34:16This is nice.
00:34:18Yeah.
00:34:20This should be like an everyday thing.
00:34:25Mm-hmm.
00:34:25Mm-hmm.
00:34:28Good morning.
00:34:29Another beautiful day in Ellington.
00:34:31Let's get it.
00:34:31Woo!
00:34:32Oh, Hannah.
00:34:38Well, I guess that's over.
00:34:42Um.
00:34:43Well, everything should be there.
00:34:47I can't even concentrate on work right now.
00:34:50Oh?
00:34:51Why?
00:34:52Well, I don't know if you heard, but...
00:34:55Oh, my.
00:34:58That's, uh, quite a scene.
00:35:00Well, I'm glad you weren't there.
00:35:03I can imagine.
00:35:05Yeah, I just...
00:35:06I hope my girlfriend doesn't think that that's my kind of lifestyle.
00:35:12You should just talk to her.
00:35:14And be honest.
00:35:15Yeah.
00:35:15Uh, I'm gonna call her.
00:35:18What?
00:35:21Yeah, can you be in the room when I do it?
00:35:23Uh, you want me in the room?
00:35:26Yeah.
00:35:26Maybe you could, you know, listen to her voice and read her.
00:35:30Tell me if she's upset.
00:35:33Uh, I don't know if I feel comfortable.
00:35:37Makes me so nervous.
00:35:38I'm sure you make her nervous, too.
00:35:42Shit, shit, shit.
00:35:42Uh-oh.
00:35:43You.
00:35:45Shit, shit, shit.
00:35:45Uh-oh.
00:35:48Uh-oh.
00:35:50Think, Ariel, think.
00:35:51Uh, I'm gonna be sick.
00:35:54Uh, bathroom.
00:36:01Hello, darling.
00:36:02Hey, Valentina.
00:36:05How are you?
00:36:07Thriving, my dear.
00:36:08How are you feeling?
00:36:10A little banged up, but I've been worse.
00:36:14You should have been with me in my partying days in Ibiza.
00:36:17I was an absolute heathen.
00:36:24Well, I'm glad to hear you're feeling all right.
00:36:27Uh, I was worried.
00:36:31No need, darling.
00:36:32I'm actually at the spa right now.
00:36:36Uh, I wanted to know if, uh, I get to see you again.
00:36:40You will.
00:36:42Very soon.
00:36:49Uh, sorry.
00:36:52Can I help you?
00:36:53I-I couldn't hear you.
00:36:54It-it kind of sounded like...
00:36:56Uh, uh, sorry.
00:36:57Uh, Eduardo is calling me for my hot, hot stone massage.
00:37:02Must be going.
00:37:03Okay.
00:37:04Uh, sure.
00:37:05See you.
00:37:06Ta-ta!
00:37:06Ta-ta!
00:37:13Community theater.
00:37:15Hmm.
00:37:16Character.
00:37:17I'm rehearsing.
00:37:18We're a mystery.
00:37:23I'll, uh, send you the dates.
00:37:25I'm not in the theater.
00:37:28That's fair.
00:37:29Mom, I'm home.
00:37:46Hi, honey.
00:37:46How was your day?
00:37:50It was...
00:37:51not boring.
00:37:53How was yours?
00:37:55It was wonderful.
00:37:57I did laundry, watched some...
00:37:59Psst.
00:38:01Um, what are you cooking?
00:38:02I told you I was gonna cook tonight.
00:38:05Well, you weren't home yet,
00:38:06and I wanted to go ahead and get started
00:38:07so your co-worker could have some, too.
00:38:09My co-worker?
00:38:12Hello, darling.
00:38:20Flora.
00:38:22What are you doing here?
00:38:23I was going to call you about a few questions,
00:38:26but I was, uh, in the neighborhood
00:38:28and thought I'd drop in.
00:38:32Flora mentioned that you got a job promotion.
00:38:35You didn't say anything about a job promotion.
00:38:37I guess it slipped my mind.
00:38:41Well, you two don't mind me.
00:38:42Go ahead and have your work talk.
00:38:44Then I'll be ready soon.
00:38:45Ahem.
00:38:46What are you doing here?
00:38:58Checking in to see what progress was made last night.
00:39:01I, um...
00:39:02I got close to finding out where he hit the drive,
00:39:05but I...
00:39:06But close doesn't pay the bills, does it?
00:39:09I'll get you the drive soon, I promise.
00:39:11Well, it sounds like the clock is ticking fast.
00:39:16You're not getting attached.
00:39:18What?
00:39:18No.
00:39:19Of course not.
00:39:20Good.
00:39:21I was worried you were developing feelings for the man.
00:39:27Dinner's ready.
00:39:28Oh.
00:39:29Deeply sorry, darling.
00:39:31Urgent business.
00:39:32Must be taking off.
00:39:33Oh.
00:39:33Okay, well, it was nice meeting you.
00:39:36You too, darling.
00:39:38Mwah.
00:39:42Tick tock.
00:39:55Alright, I need ways to fix my image after that bar scandal.
00:39:59Any ideas?
00:40:02Inner rehab.
00:40:03Too tacky.
00:40:05Go volunteer in a third world country?
00:40:08Mmm.
00:40:08Too obvious.
00:40:10Record an apology video for social media and post it there.
00:40:13Too cringe.
00:40:18Adopt an orphan.
00:40:20Now that is something.
00:40:21Ariel.
00:40:22How good are you at raising kids?
00:40:23Um, let's think of other options.
00:40:28What about a charity ball?
00:40:31Yes.
00:40:31That's it.
00:40:32That's the one.
00:40:33I like that.
00:40:34I like it a lot.
00:40:36Isn't she good?
00:40:37Phenomenal.
00:40:39Well, really, we wouldn't be here had I not appointed her as your assistant.
00:40:42So, really, this kind of all comes back to...
00:40:45Got it.
00:40:46Wait.
00:40:47What charity would it be for?
00:40:48How about unknown disorders and illnesses?
00:40:49How about unknown disorders and illnesses?
00:40:51I love that.
00:40:53Let's get it rolling.
00:40:55I'll start right away.
00:40:56Ariel.
00:40:58You've become an integral part of our company, and I want to have you seated at our VIP table.
00:41:03Oh, my gosh.
00:41:04Oh, my gosh.
00:41:05I'm honored.
00:41:06Me, my family, Kurt, my girlfriend, Valentina, and you.
00:41:11Good job.
00:41:12Let's see how it looks.
00:41:18Come out.
00:41:21It fits perfectly, darling.
00:41:23Wow.
00:41:27Stunning.
00:41:31Next, I'll have to get you a dress.
00:41:34A dress?
00:41:36What's the occasion?
00:41:38Well, I'm hosting this show, and I would love for you to be my date.
00:41:43I love a good ball.
00:41:44But I must check my schedule, darling.
00:41:49Is this for that computer thingy you were talking about the other day?
00:41:53My new AI tech.
00:41:55It's going to revolutionize the world.
00:41:57Ah, yes.
00:42:00We got interrupted.
00:42:01You were going to tell me something important.
00:42:04What were you going to say?
00:42:07It's not really that necessary.
00:42:11You don't trust me?
00:42:13I do.
00:42:13So, this is my first major launch as Ellington CEO, and I just want it to go well.
00:42:20But I thought I was special.
00:42:23You are.
00:42:24I just...
00:42:25Well, you know, if you don't trust me...
00:42:29Wait.
00:42:33So you do trust me?
00:42:36Mm-hmm.
00:42:36So, Blaine's going to tell me the super special secret?
00:42:49Mm-hmm.
00:42:52Where is it?
00:42:54It's here.
00:42:55In the mansion.
00:43:00It's here?
00:43:00Mm-hmm.
00:43:15We're in the mansion.
00:43:18It's...
00:43:18Yeah.
00:43:25Now?
00:43:29Okay.
00:43:30I'll be there.
00:43:34No, I don't.
00:43:37Where are you going, darling?
00:43:38They need me to be on this call with Chyna, so...
00:43:43I have to leave.
00:43:45You have to leave right now, darling?
00:43:47Yeah.
00:43:48Now.
00:43:50I'm sorry.
00:43:51Pick this back up again soon, huh?
00:43:54Yeah.
00:43:57Martina was right about you.
00:43:59I should start sharing more with you.
00:44:01I don't know.
00:44:31The code is in Blaine's mansion.
00:44:36Excellent, darling.
00:44:38Excellent.
00:45:02Max, what are you doing here?
00:45:04What the hell are you doing here, Ariel?
00:45:06Or should I say, Valentina Kingsley?
00:45:09You wouldn't understand.
00:45:11Oh, I understand.
00:45:12You're acting like somebody else to take advantage of your rich boss, hmm?
00:45:17No, I'm not.
00:45:18You know, I have the responsibility to tell your little hotshot boyfriend who you really are.
00:45:25It's only the right thing to do.
00:45:28Please don't.
00:45:30You don't know what I'm doing.
00:45:30Oh, you'll lose your job?
00:45:33Your reputation?
00:45:35Oh, once word gets out, nobody will want you?
00:45:39What do you want, Max?
00:45:40I just want an arrangement.
00:45:44I'd rather not.
00:45:45Ariel, you really do not want to make me angry.
00:45:50Did you just come here to hurt me?
00:45:53Oh, sweetheart, I don't want to hurt you.
00:45:56I want to destroy you.
00:45:59You have 24 hours to end this charade on your own.
00:46:04If by tomorrow I see little Valentina Kingsley running around town,
00:46:10I'll do it for you.
00:46:25You seem extra happy today.
00:46:30I feel like Valentina and I, we got on a whole nother level last night.
00:46:35That's awesome, man.
00:46:36I'm so happy for you.
00:46:38Hi, Mr. Lington.
00:46:39Hi, Kurt.
00:46:40Hi, Anna.
00:46:42Yeah, I feel like she's the one, Kurt.
00:46:45Kurt?
00:46:47Sorry, what were we talking about?
00:46:53You all right?
00:46:55Yeah, I'm all right.
00:46:57Um, I actually had an idea about the Cherry Bowl.
00:47:02Well, we keep reaching out to all of these extravagant venues for their availability.
00:47:07I was thinking we could host it ourselves.
00:47:11Where?
00:47:12I was thinking your house.
00:47:18Uh, I don't really like having people over at my house.
00:47:23Well, if we hosted ourselves, it seems like a more intimate event.
00:47:29And then we could have it as soon as this weekend.
00:47:32Yeah, that makes sense.
00:47:34Okay.
00:47:35Let's do it.
00:47:37Great.
00:47:37I'll send out the invitations.
00:47:38She really knows his company, inside and out.
00:47:45What do you know about Ariel?
00:47:47Here you go, Mom.
00:48:04I'm sorry I couldn't stay awake for the movie.
00:48:07I'm just so sleepy.
00:48:08That's okay.
00:48:09We can watch it next weekend.
00:48:10Um, sweetie, you should be going out with your friends on a Saturday night.
00:48:16Mom, you are my friend.
00:48:18People your age, who you can be out dancing with, flirting with boys.
00:48:24I actually kind of have met this one boy.
00:48:28What?
00:48:29What's he like?
00:48:31It's complicated.
00:48:33Honey, you just need to follow your heart.
00:48:36Yeah, he's kind of sweet.
00:48:38Oh, sweetie, I'm fine.
00:48:48I just need some rest.
00:48:53Hmm.
00:49:08And then after your speech, night away.
00:49:12Ugh.
00:49:13I am dreading giving this speech.
00:49:15I guess I'll just picture everyone wearing their underwear and I'll be fine, right?
00:49:19I always thought that was a little pervy, but...
00:49:22I promise, you're gonna be amazing.
00:49:25Ha ha ha.
00:49:27Thank you so much for helping with this.
00:49:30This small idea was genius.
00:49:33I need to make it up to you at some point.
00:49:35I was just doing my job, Mr. Ellington.
00:49:38Well, I should get going.
00:49:42Wait, um...
00:49:44I should probably call Valentina, right?
00:49:47Make sure the dress fits.
00:49:50I'm sure she'd appreciate that.
00:49:52All right.
00:49:53Good night.
00:50:06Hello, darling.
00:50:06I just wanted to make sure the dress fit.
00:50:10It's perfect.
00:50:12I'm looking forward to tomorrow.
00:50:15I can't wait either, darling.
00:50:17Good night.
00:50:18Ariel, this place looks amazing.
00:50:41Thanks, Kurt.
00:50:43You're looking sharp.
00:50:44Oh, yeah.
00:50:45Well, gotta dress to impress, you know?
00:50:48Are you trying to impress?
00:50:50Nah.
00:50:52Listen, random.
00:50:54Does Hannah have a boyfriend?
00:50:57I don't think so.
00:51:00Do you like her?
00:51:01No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:51:04No, I'm just trying to make friendly conversation.
00:51:08Yeah.
00:51:10We need more balloons in the dining room.
00:51:14Oh.
00:51:16You're still here.
00:51:18Yeah.
00:51:18Listen, if someone were to ask Hannah to dance, what do you think the chances are that she
00:51:27would say yes?
00:51:30Probably good.
00:51:32Are you going to ask her to dance?
00:51:34No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:51:36I'm just a fan of wild hypothetical scenarios.
00:51:42That one just sprung to mind.
00:51:44Mm-hmm.
00:51:45Okay.
00:51:48Yeah.
00:51:50Well, I'm going to go help Blaine practice his speech.
00:51:57So I'm going to do that right now.
00:52:00I will see you later.
00:52:02All right.
00:52:02See ya.
00:52:05And you must be Ariel.
00:52:10Yes, hi.
00:52:13Hmm.
00:52:14You know, my grandson has spoken very fondly of you.
00:52:17He has?
00:52:18Oh, yes, yes.
00:52:19In fact, he says that, well, this whole thing was your idea.
00:52:24I suppose so.
00:52:26Wonderful.
00:52:28Kind of reminds me of something Blaine's father would have done if he were in the
00:52:32Blaine's situation.
00:52:34Wow.
00:52:35That's such an honor.
00:52:36I heard he was a great man.
00:52:39He was a great man.
00:52:40Martina, have you had the pleasure of meeting Blaine's assistant, Ariel?
00:52:46Yes, briefly.
00:52:48She's really helped Blaine become quite an impressive deal.
00:52:50Yes, yes, she has.
00:52:52In fact, I can, uh, I can see her playing a bigger Ellington if she keeps it up.
00:52:58Why wait?
00:52:59She could be a part of something huge tonight.
00:53:02Really?
00:53:02I think so.
00:53:04You, Ariel?
00:53:06Uh, what's that?
00:53:08Amazing.
00:53:10Well, I can't wait.
00:53:15Me either.
00:53:16Would you like him?
00:53:16Here.
00:53:17It's fine.
00:53:28I can't wait.
00:53:30I can't wait.
00:53:30Maybe?
00:53:31Maybe not.
00:53:32And then?
00:53:32I can't wait.
00:53:32Maybe not.
00:53:32Maybe not.
00:53:34I won't wait.
00:53:34Maybe not.
00:53:35Maybe not.
00:53:35Maybe not.
00:53:35But then?
00:53:36Maybe not.
00:53:37Maybe not.
00:53:38Maybe not.

01:06:40Flora?
01:06:41What are you doing here?
01:06:42I have a way of being places I'm not supposed to be.
01:06:44Just like you, apparently.
01:06:46The code, darling.
01:06:47The code, darling.
01:06:48The future.
01:06:49In the palm of my hand.
01:06:51I was beginning to think you didn't have any.
01:06:52Blaine's a good man.
01:06:53I feel it.
01:06:54I feel it.
01:06:55I feel it.
01:06:56I feel it.
01:06:57I feel it.
01:06:58I feel it.
01:06:59I feel it.
01:07:00I feel it.
01:07:01I feel it.
01:07:02I feel it.
01:07:03I feel it.
01:07:04I feel it.
01:07:05I feel it.

01:07:09You're all pale.
01:07:10I feel it.
01:07:11I feel it.
01:07:12I feel it.
01:07:13I feel it.
01:07:14I feel it.
01:07:15It's a good guy.
01:07:16I feel it, too.
01:07:17The code, darling.
01:07:18The future.
01:07:19In the palm of my hand.
01:07:20I was beginning to think you didn't have any.
01:07:22Blaine's a good man.
01:07:23You're awful.
01:07:25My mom? And her surgery?
01:07:28I've been accused of many things.
01:07:31But I always keep my word.
01:07:34Now, go and celebrate. You deserve it, darling.
01:07:55Balancina!
01:08:04Hi, darling.
01:08:05There you are.
01:08:07How are you feeling?
01:08:09Stronger than the rains in the Amazon, darling.
01:08:12Excellent. Care to dance?
01:08:14Certainly.
01:08:18Well, well, well, well.
01:08:23Look at the happy couple.
01:08:30How did you get?
01:08:31Oh, I have my ways.
01:08:32We lied about our names on the guest list.
01:08:36Anyway, I just came here to congratulate you on your little events.
01:08:44You need to leave.
01:08:45Actually, I don't think I do.
01:08:47Because I don't think you know who your little girlfriend is.
01:08:51She's Valentina Kingsley.
01:08:52No, no, no.
01:08:54There is no Valentina Kingsley.
01:08:58What?
01:08:59If only your little assistant had assisted you in researching her.
01:09:04You know, it's funny.
01:09:05I haven't actually seen her all night.
01:09:09Blaine, don't listen to him.
01:09:11What is he talking about?
01:09:13Yeah, she may have fooled everyone in here.
01:09:18But an ex-boyfriend never forgets a butt.
01:09:22Ariel?
01:09:23This whole time you've been Valentina?
01:09:37That's right.
01:09:38This whole time you've been Valentina?
01:09:39That's right.
01:09:40This whole time you pretended to care about me.
01:09:43But you're just a liar.
01:09:44And worse.
01:09:45She's poor.
01:09:46Why?
01:09:47Yes, Ariel.
01:09:48But why?
01:09:49Yes, Ariel.
01:09:50But why?
01:09:51I'm so sorry.
01:09:52Ariel.
01:09:53Ariel.
01:09:54Ariel, wait.
01:09:55How embarrassing.
01:09:56You know, I looked into you.
01:09:57You're in so much debt that it's surprising that you can even rent the Lambo that you drove
01:10:00here.
01:10:01How preposterous, is that?
01:10:02And that's just a lie, it's just a liar.
01:10:11And worse.
01:10:12You're poor.
01:10:13Why?
01:10:14Yes, Ariel.
01:10:15But why?
01:10:16I'm so sorry.
01:10:17Ariel.
01:10:18Ariel, wait.
01:10:19How embarrassing.
01:10:20You know, I looked into you.
01:10:21You're in so much debt that it's surprising that you can even rent the Lambo that you drove
01:10:23here.
01:10:24drove here. How preposterous. If anybody looks into that, it will be a complete waste of time.
01:10:30Ew. You're poor?
01:10:35Regina!
01:10:39You're my hero.
01:10:42Thanks. Sometimes I just gotta tell him. You know?
01:10:50Ariel!
01:10:54What are you smiling about?
01:11:02I mean, come on. Who's it, right? He's a joke.
01:11:07No, he's your brother, Martina.
01:11:09He's a liability, Richard. And you are giving him the company with the luxury of not having to deal with this show because you won't be alive much longer.
01:11:17Oh, well, don't bet on that. You know, you've got a lot of nerve talking to me like this, kid.
01:11:22You've got a lot of nerve letting the ship go down when the lifeboat is right in front of you.
01:11:29I should be running this company.
01:11:32Or is this what success looks like to you?
01:11:39Look, I'm not poor.
01:11:41What is that?
01:11:42I do not want to hear it.
01:11:43You lied to me. Not only did you lie to me, but you embarrassed me in there.
01:11:47That is fair.
01:11:52Regina!
01:11:54Turn it off!
01:12:18That was a disaster.
01:12:22I just don't understand.
01:12:24Why would she go through all of that?
01:12:26I don't know.
01:12:28But, uh,
01:12:30these scandals are exhausting.
01:12:32Yeah.
01:12:34I think I'll be dating anytime soon.
01:12:38Right.
01:12:42I got a lot to think about.
01:12:44What do you mean?
01:12:46I mean, we may have to take the company
01:12:48in a complete different direction
01:12:50for it to gain back the public's trust.
01:12:52You can't be serious.
01:12:54Huh?
01:12:58Something better happen soon
01:13:00or I guess much worse.
01:13:02Did she want anything from you?
01:13:06I don't know, Martina.
01:13:08Nothing valuable?
01:13:10Martina, I said I don't...
01:13:12I don't know.
01:13:14I don't know.
01:13:16I don't know.
01:13:18I don't know.
01:13:20No!
01:13:22I don't know.
01:13:32No!
01:13:34No!
01:13:36I don't know.
01:13:38I don't know.
01:13:40I don't know.
01:13:42I don't know.
01:13:44Ariel.
01:13:45Baby.
01:13:46You look like you had a rough night.
01:13:50It was a disaster, really.
01:13:52I feel awful.
01:13:55Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that, baby.
01:13:58Thanks, Mom.
01:14:00Well, I have something to tell you.
01:14:03Dr. Westfall calls.
01:14:05Are you okay? What's going on?
01:14:08He said that anonymous donor sent in the funds for me to have my operation.
