00:00:00Hey, this is Richard Allington.

00:00:10I can't answer the phone right now, so please leave a message.

00:00:14Hey, Grandpa.

00:00:17It's one thing to set me up on a bunch of blind dates with these goody-tissue women,

00:00:22but 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.

00:00:34I don't even know what to say to this guy.

00:00:37I don't know how to talk to rich people.

00:00:39Be sexy.

00:00:40Darling, just act better than everyone else in the room.

00:00:44And being sexy is easy.

00:00:46Bite your lip, push up the girls.

00:00:48It works every time.

00:00:50Wait, but what girls?

00:00:51And don't forget, these rich men get bored easily.

00:00:55So challenge them, be bold, and put them on the spot.

00:00:57I don't think I can do this.

00:01:00The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech,

00:01:03the sooner I pay you for your mother's surgery.

00:01:05It's your call.

00:01:27Are you going to stare at me all night or be a gentleman and get my seat, big boy?

00:01:37Of course.

00:01:45Sorry, I've been set up with many girls before, but none like you.

00:01:50You're so...

00:01:52Rich?

00:01:53Sexy?

00:01:55Frankly, yes.

00:01:57Sorry, what was her name?

00:02:01Valentina Kingsley.

00:02:03And you are?

00:02:03Blaine Ellington.

00:02:04CEO of Ellington Incorporated.

00:02:07Hmm.

00:02:08And this is a successful company?

00:02:10It's not ringing any bells.

00:02:13Waiter?

00:02:14Yes, Mr. Ellington.

00:02:16You still have the Chateau Petrus on the shelf, yes?

00:02:19Yes, of course.

00:02:20If so, we'll have two bottles.

00:02:22Uh, it's $60,000 per bottle, sir.

00:02:25You want two?

00:02:27Actually, I'm pretty thirsty.

00:02:30Better bring three.

00:02:31Yes, of course.

00:02:32Right away, sir.

00:02:39And what do you do, Valentina Kingsley?

00:02:42I invest.

00:02:44In what?

00:02:45In everything.

00:02:49What am I not investing in?

00:02:51Businesses?

00:02:53Charities?

00:02:55I see.

00:02:56And you live in the city?

00:02:58The city.

00:03:00The hills.

00:03:02My yacht.

00:03:04My private island.

00:03:07I'm everywhere, darling.

00:03:08You're so impressive.

00:03:12So unlike the other girls I've seen.

00:03:14Hmm.

00:03:15Doesn't surprise me.

00:03:16I'm one of a kind, darling.

00:03:21Um.

00:03:23You've got a little, uh...

00:03:34Kurt?

00:03:35Kurt?

00:03:35What's my manager doing here?

00:03:39Blaine.

00:03:41My business dinner just ended.

00:03:43The presentation for the China branch.

00:03:44Looking good.

00:03:45Amazing.

00:03:46You're the best, Kurt.

00:03:46Well, I just, uh, want to keep you two.

00:03:48I just wanted to say hi.

00:03:51Rose petals for a business dinner?

00:03:52Ended up being a blind date.

00:03:53Ah, classic.

00:03:55All right, well, you two have fun.

00:04:03I've got to be honest with you.

00:04:04You're so unlike any of the girls I've been with.

00:04:09Would you like to come to my place?

00:04:11I can take this chance to get closer to the AI code.

00:04:14Absolutely, darling.

00:04:21Whoa.

00:04:23Welcome to my home.

00:04:25After you.

00:04:34Oh, my.

00:04:52You like what you say?

00:04:54You're getting there, darling.

00:04:56Nothing like the Calvin Klein model I dated, but...

00:04:58Well, then, shall we get started?

00:05:04Uh, not so fast.

00:05:07Okay.

00:05:08A little foreplay?

00:05:09I did not think this through at all.

00:05:11How am I supposed to find the drive when he's trying to suck my face off?

00:05:14Looking for something?

00:05:20Oh, um...

00:05:21Ah.

00:05:24I should have known that was your style.

00:05:27Oh, yes, darling.

00:05:31Ugh.

00:05:32I can't believe people are actually into this.

00:05:34I'm kind of used to being the one tied up.

00:05:36It's usually the other way around.

00:05:42Valentina?

00:05:44Patience, darling.

00:05:45I'm building the suspense.

00:05:47Ah.

00:05:48I see.

00:05:49Where could it be?

00:05:50Right.

00:05:51And...

00:05:52You say guys actually like this?

00:05:54Oh, yes.

00:05:55It's very popular with the manly men in France.

00:05:59Huh.

00:06:01How long does it take for something to actually happen?

00:06:04That's...

00:06:08That's new.

00:06:11The painting!

00:06:12Maybe there's a safe behind there.

00:06:14Oh, uh...

00:06:15Sorry, this painting caught my eye.

00:06:18It looks exactly like...

00:06:19The one in my mansion in Sweden.

00:06:23It's where I keep my safe.

00:06:25People actually still hide things behind paintings?

00:06:28Thought that was only in the movies.

00:06:31Oh, no, it's quite popular.

00:06:32Where do you hide your luxurious safe-keepings?

00:06:37In a super, super, super secret hiding place.

00:06:41Oh, come on.

00:06:44Now, why don't you come over here and get this thing started?

00:06:48Oh, uh...

00:06:49Most unfortunate.

00:06:50I'm getting the utmost important business call, and I must take it.

00:06:54Right now?

00:06:55What?

00:06:56What about me?

00:06:58Valentina!

00:06:59Wait!

00:07:03Untie me!

00:07:10Ew.

00:07:12Really, Blaine?

00:07:13What?

00:07:14You and your models.

00:07:15Last night was not a model.

00:07:19I was actually impressed.

00:07:22Did I hear it right?

00:07:24Blaine actually had a date he liked.

00:07:26It was fantastic.

00:07:28The other girls are so boring.

00:07:30But this one...

00:07:31She's a mystery I can't quite crack.

00:07:33I must see her again.

00:07:35Blaine, these dates aren't about you having sexy adventures.

00:07:39It's about you finding a wife you can settle down with and running the company.

00:07:41Okay.

00:07:45Grandfather.

00:07:46Mm-hmm?

00:07:46Listen to him.

00:07:47He's not ready to be the face of Ellington.

00:07:49I am much more qualified.

00:07:50Oh, yeah.

00:07:53I'm done having this conversation with you, dear.

00:07:55Mm-hmm.

00:07:55No, no, no, no, no.

00:07:57Look, you do great work right where you are.

00:08:00Right?

00:08:00Yeah, you were meant to be some CEO.

00:08:03No, but Blaine, Blaine will learn in time.

00:08:07Whatever.

00:08:07Have fun with your little girlfriend, Blaine.

00:08:11I have actual work to attend to.

00:08:14Oh.

00:08:16Yeah, yeah.

00:08:17Thanks.

00:08:23Hello?

00:08:24How's our plan going, darling?

00:08:28To perfection.

00:08:31Sherry has Blaine wrapped around her finger.

00:08:33It won't be long until he slips up,

00:08:34and I can step in and take my throne as Ellington's CEO.

00:08:39Brilliant.

00:08:40It's all coming together perfectly.

00:08:42And the VR tech you're developing,

00:08:44it'll be ready in time when I trade the AI code, right?

00:08:46Oh, yes.

00:08:47It'll be ready.

00:08:48Soon we'll be queens of the tech world.

00:08:51What's he doing here?

00:09:05Speaking of girls,

00:09:06I think I know who would be perfect as your new sister.

00:09:10Sorry.

00:09:11I'm fine.

00:09:13Ariel.

00:09:14How does he know my name?

00:09:16You dropped your badge.

00:09:17Okay.

00:09:21There you go.

00:09:25Thanks.

00:09:32Amazing.

00:09:35Are you playing hide-and-seek?

00:09:36Is that where you're late?

00:09:37Can I hide next?

00:09:38No, I was dropping your mama at the hospital.

00:09:41No, that was unexpectedly personal.

00:09:43Wait, oh my god, is she okay?

00:09:44Should I bring her a fruit basket?

00:09:46She's just getting some tests done.

00:09:47Oh, thank goodness.

00:09:49Hey, by the way, did you hear?

00:09:51Our new CEO is looking for a personal assistant.

00:09:53Are you going to apply?

00:09:54I'm good where I am.

00:09:55All the girls are applying.

00:09:57Everyone wants to get close to our boss.

00:09:58You're the best employee in our department, Ariel.

00:10:00I think this position is yours.

00:10:12He's gorgeous.

00:10:14I wouldn't mind looking at that hunk of man all day.

00:10:17Attention, everyone.

00:10:19My name is Blaine, and I am the new CEO.

00:10:22I will try my best to live up to my father, but I ask for patience as I adjust to the new role.

00:10:29And since he is adjusting to this new role, I've decided to assign him a new assistant.

00:10:35Not me, not me, not me.

00:10:37Blaine, meet your new assistant, Harry.

00:10:44All right, everyone, back to work.

00:10:52You look exactly like...

00:10:55Oh, my God, my cover's blown.

00:11:04Kurt described.

00:11:06Clean, organized desk, confident composure.

00:11:10There'd be a pay raise, of course.

00:11:13This could get me closer to finding my code.

00:11:16When do I start?

00:11:17Perfect.

00:11:18First thing I need help with is there's this file.

00:11:21Oh, um, gotta take a book all.

00:11:23Send it to me in an email.

00:11:27Ariel, he wants to meet you again.

00:11:30Really?

00:11:31Also, I got you a second number.

00:11:33Just click the link to connect it, so from now on, you're the one he'll be calling.

00:11:38Great.

00:11:44You're numbered, huh?

00:11:48Hello?

00:11:51Hello, Ariel?

00:11:54This is Dr. Westphal.

00:11:55We just got your mother's results.

00:12:00It's not what we hoped.

00:12:02So we need to move quickly if we want that experimental procedure to be a success.

00:12:06Okay.

00:12:07I understand.

00:12:08I'll come up with the money for it soon.

00:12:11Oh, perfect timing.

00:12:19I just finished dinner.

00:12:21Mom, you should be in bed.

00:12:23Honey, I'm fine.

00:12:24Besides, you've been working all day.

00:12:25You shouldn't have to cook for yourself.

00:12:27Mom, please.

00:12:28Honey, sit down.

00:12:29The doctor called.

00:12:40He says it's gotten worse.

00:12:41Hush, hush, hush.

00:12:43Hush.

00:12:43None of that talk, okay?

00:12:45Mom.

00:12:46Eat before your food gets cold.

00:12:55I'll be right back.

00:12:56I'll be right back.

00:12:59It's time for the second date, darling.

00:13:04Are you ready?

00:13:07Yeah.

00:13:10Mom, I have to leave for work.

00:13:12I'll make it to go.

00:13:13Oh, where am I?

00:13:36Valentina!

00:13:37Blaine!

00:13:39Darling!

00:13:40What is this dreadful place?

00:13:41Do you intend to have me killed?

00:13:43No, not at all.

00:13:44This place is special.

00:13:46Follow me.

00:13:58Honey, Maura.

00:13:59We're almost there.

00:14:00Come on.

00:14:12Wow.

00:14:28Did you look at that view?

00:14:31I bet you bring all your models up here.

00:14:33Just you, actually.

00:14:35I discovered this place after my father died.

00:14:37On your father died?

00:14:40Yeah.

00:14:42I've been thrown into the CEO position, and I'm a bit in over my head, so I never really

00:14:48get a chance to myself except when I come here.

00:14:51I'm so sorry.

00:14:52I'm so sorry.

00:14:54I'm so sorry.

00:15:00My mom is sick.

00:15:04She needs experimental surgery.

00:15:07Just saying how it feels to...

00:15:12Want to get away?

00:15:14Yeah.

00:15:16I'm used to getting everything, but this is one thing that money can't buy.

00:15:23I'm so sorry about your mom.

00:15:25Thanks.

00:15:27She's all I've got.

00:15:28I don't want to say goodbye to her.

00:15:40Hey!

00:15:40Who's out here?

00:15:48What's happening?

00:15:50Technically, we're not supposed to be up here.

00:15:52What?

00:15:52Run.

00:15:58Hey!

00:16:03Still.

00:16:08What was that?

00:16:09That was fun.

00:16:11Did Calvin Klein take you on any dates that adventurous?

00:16:13No.

00:16:14I suppose not.

00:16:17I haven't felt this way in a really long time.

00:16:21I feel like I can be myself around you.

00:16:25You feel the same way?

00:16:25Will you be my girlfriend, Valentina?

00:16:29That's right.

00:16:29I'm supposed to be Valentina.

00:16:31I can't do this to him.

00:16:38But I need to pay for my mom's surgery.

00:16:42I'd love to.

00:16:46Well, well, well.

00:16:49Martina, what are you doing here?

00:16:51I heard you were actually acting like a big boy CEO.

00:16:55I had to see it for myself.

00:16:57Well, that blind date went so well the other night,

00:17:00it got me thinking maybe grandfather was right.

00:17:03Is that so?

00:17:04Blaine's got himself a little girlfriend?

00:17:06That's right.

00:17:07Wow.

00:17:08What's she like?

00:17:09She's funny, mysterious, confident, hardworking, charitable.

00:17:15She's the whole package.

00:17:17Sounds like one that Dad actually would have approved of.

00:17:20I'd love to meet her.

00:17:25Oh, sorry, Mr. Ellington.

00:17:28Is this about time?

00:17:29No, not at all.

00:17:30My sister just came to visit.

00:17:32Martina, this is my new assistant, Ariel.

00:17:35Martina, nice to meet you.

00:17:36Likewise.

00:17:37Glad to see my brother.

00:17:38I saw one to make sure this launch goes smoothly.

00:17:41Don't you worry.

00:17:42I got this.

00:17:43Well, after you lost the keys to the Maserati,

00:17:45I'm not so sure that you won't lose this new AI tech that we need.

00:17:48I didn't lose the keys to the Maserati,

00:17:50and don't you worry.

00:17:51I've got the codes right here on this drive,

00:17:54and I'm keeping it safe.

00:18:07Glad to hear you're doing that.

00:18:09I have wasted enough time.

00:18:12Now you know exactly where it is.

00:18:15Get it.

00:18:24All right, where's that drive?

00:18:39Are you kidding?

00:18:40There's nothing in here.

00:18:50Oh, man.

00:18:51They're coming in.

00:18:54You're a trap.

00:18:55How about we celebrate your China contract

00:18:57with a nice glass of whiskey?

00:18:59Do you know, twist my arm.

00:19:04Do you know, twist my arm.

00:19:06No, no, no.

00:19:13Oh, yeah.

00:19:17Yes, sir.

00:19:18Cheers.

00:19:19Do you guys have a meeting with China right now?

00:19:20Right, right, right.

00:19:25After then.

00:19:26Yeah.

00:19:33Whew.

00:19:34That was close.

00:19:40Hey, girlfriend.

00:19:41Can I ask your advice on something?

00:19:43Sure.

00:19:43What's going on?

00:19:44So, I have this friend who is having boy problems.

00:19:48Aren't we all?

00:19:48So, she has a crush on her boss,

00:19:50and she doesn't know what to do about it

00:19:52because of the whole workplace relationship thing.

00:19:54How did she find out I like Blaine?

00:19:56Wait.

00:19:57I don't like Blaine.

00:19:58But he deserves to know, though, right?

00:19:59You're going to tell him?

00:20:00I mean, I don't know,

00:20:01because what if I tell Kurt I like him

00:20:03and he doesn't like me,

00:20:04and then it's so totally awkward,

00:20:05and so he fires me

00:20:06because it's so totally awkward.

00:20:08Wait.

00:20:09You like Kurt?

00:20:10I gotta go.

00:20:11What?

00:20:12Ring, ring.

00:20:13Oh, I'm getting a call.

00:20:15Ring, ring.

00:20:17Ring, ring.

00:20:18Ring, ring.

00:20:19Ring, ring.

00:20:21Ariel.

00:20:22Yes, Mr. Ellington?

00:20:26I need your personal help.

00:20:28Well, I am your personal assistant.

00:20:29I've never gotten a girl a gift.

00:20:40Wow, really?

00:20:42I mean, yeah.

00:20:44First girlfriend, first gift.

00:20:46Checks out.

00:20:47So, I need your help

00:20:49to figure out which you think

00:20:50a woman would prefer.

00:20:53Oh, no.

00:20:59Oh, my God.

00:21:03I'm going to be wearing that?

00:21:04Sorry?

00:21:06Your girlfriend's going to be wearing that?

00:21:08Yeah.

00:21:09It's pretty nice, right?

00:21:10Well, I mean,

00:21:12it's option one.

00:21:13You think she'll like it?

00:21:15Um,

00:21:16well,

00:21:17what's her girlfriend like?

00:21:19What are her

00:21:19tastes?

00:21:21Um,

00:21:22sophisticated,

00:21:24generous,

00:21:25gorgeous.

00:21:26The whole world

00:21:27slows down

00:21:27whenever she walks into a room.

00:21:31I see.

00:21:32Okay.

00:21:32So,

00:21:36keep that in mind.

00:21:38Option two.

00:21:43And that's even more revealing

00:21:44than the first one.

00:21:45Yeah.

00:21:46This is big in Europe.

00:21:48Between you and me,

00:21:48I'm rooting for this guy.

00:21:50Mm-hmm.

00:21:51I see.

00:21:51Do you have anything more

00:21:53modest?

00:21:56Hmm.

00:21:57Modest?

00:21:57Yeah.

00:21:58That

00:21:59seems to be the style

00:22:00I've been seeing these days.

00:22:02With the rich folk.

00:22:04At least.

00:22:05You know,

00:22:05now that you say it,

00:22:07I think I do have something.

00:22:13Aha.

00:22:16What do you think?

00:22:18I think she'd really like that.

00:22:21Hmm.

00:22:27Can I have a margarita?

00:22:32You can't be serious,

00:22:33darling.

00:22:35She'll have a friend

00:22:3575 at Cognac.

00:22:37Flora,

00:22:37what are you doing here?

00:22:39Making sure you look the part.

00:22:41You want to make the money

00:22:42for your dear mother,

00:22:42don't you?

00:22:44Yes,

00:22:44more than anything.

00:22:45Then you need to keep

00:22:46your eyes on the prize.

00:22:48We need to get our hands

00:22:49on that code fast.

00:22:51Once I do,

00:22:52I can fund your mother's surgery.

00:22:53But until then,

00:22:53we're in this together.

00:22:56Yes?

00:22:57Yeah.

00:22:59Excellent.

00:23:00Now,

00:23:01what's your game plan?

00:23:02Make him even more vulnerable.

00:23:04And get him to tell me

00:23:05where the code is.

00:23:06And how do you suppose

00:23:07you'll do that?

00:23:09Um,

00:23:10be nice?

00:23:13Ha ha ha!

00:23:15Your ignorance is both

00:23:16cute and annoying.

00:23:19No.

00:23:20A man like Blaine Ellington

00:23:22is going to become vulnerable

00:23:23from two things.

00:23:25Drinking with him

00:23:26and

00:23:27I'm going to bed with him.

00:23:29Right.

00:23:31I,

00:23:32I can,

00:23:32I can do that.

00:23:33I hope so,

00:23:34because he's coming this way.

00:23:37Get the code soon,

00:23:39honey.

00:23:40For your mother.

00:23:42Okay?

00:23:44Oh!

00:23:45And darling,

00:23:47have fun.

00:23:47Have fun.

00:23:50All right.

00:23:50Valentina.

00:23:56How are you?

00:23:59Wonderful,

00:24:00love.

00:24:01I've been looking forward

00:24:01to this all day.

00:24:03Is that so?

00:24:04Indeed.

00:24:05I was so distracted.

00:24:07It affected my croquet score.

00:24:09Oh, no.

00:24:10Distracted over little old me.

00:24:11Yes.

00:24:12I simply must know

00:24:14everything about you.

00:24:15Well,

00:24:16what would you like to know?

00:24:17Everything.

00:24:19Well,

00:24:20I don't know about everything.

00:24:22It might take some time

00:24:23for me to open up.

00:24:24Well,

00:24:25maybe after a few drinks.

00:24:27Only if you can keep up.

00:24:29See,

00:24:29I don't really start talking

00:24:30until after a lot of drinking.

00:24:33Oh, no.

00:24:34Well,

00:24:34here goes nothing.

00:24:35Oh, man.

00:24:40Oh.

00:24:44That's really good.

00:24:45Oh,

00:24:45that's fine.

00:24:46That's not an act.

00:24:47That's funny.

00:24:48Oh,

00:24:49that's fine.

00:24:50Oh,

00:24:50that's fine.

00:24:55You know,

00:24:56my sister

00:24:57is implying today

00:24:58that I should

00:24:58tell someone

00:24:59where my new

00:25:00AI code is

00:25:01because I

00:25:01forget stuff.

00:25:03And

00:25:03Are you

00:25:05forgetful?

00:25:07I mean,

00:25:08yeah.

00:25:09Can you actually believe

00:25:10I've lost the keys

00:25:11to a Maserati?

00:25:12What?

00:25:13Really?

00:25:13Yeah.

00:25:14It cost me

00:25:15$10,000

00:25:16just to get them

00:25:17re-keyed.

00:25:18Which is why

00:25:19I should probably

00:25:21tell someone

00:25:22in case

00:25:22I do forget.

00:25:24So,

00:25:25maybe I should

00:25:26tell you

00:25:26because you're so awesome

00:25:27and trustworthy.

00:25:29Well,

00:25:30if you'd like,

00:25:30go ahead.

00:25:32I'll tell you.

00:25:33But first,

00:25:34I'm going to

00:25:38hit the men's room.

00:25:43This is it.

00:25:45All I need to do

00:25:45is ask him

00:25:46where the code is

00:25:47and my mission

00:25:47is over.

00:25:48Nothing can

00:25:49stop me now.

00:44:24extravagant venues

00:44:25for their availability.

00:44:27I was thinking

00:44:28we could host it ourselves.

00:44:30Where?

00:44:31I was thinking

00:44:32your house.

00:44:38I don't really like

00:44:41having people

00:44:41over at my house.

00:44:43Well,

00:44:43if we host it ourselves,

00:44:45it seems like

00:44:45a more

00:44:46intimate event.

00:44:48And then we could

00:44:49have it as soon

00:44:49as this weekend.

00:44:51Yeah,

00:44:51that makes sense.

00:44:53Okay,

00:44:54let's do it.

00:44:55Great.

00:44:56I'll send out

00:44:57the invitations.

00:45:00She really knows

00:45:01his company

00:45:01inside and out.

00:45:03What do you know

00:45:04about Ariel?

00:45:07What do you want to know?

00:45:12here you go, Mom.

00:45:23I'm sorry I couldn't

00:45:24stay awake for the movie.

00:45:25I'm just so sleepy.

00:45:27That's okay.

00:45:28We can watch it

00:45:28next weekend.

00:45:30Sweetie,

00:45:31you should be going out

00:45:31with your friends

00:45:32on a Saturday night.

00:45:34Mom,

00:45:35people your age,

00:45:37who you can be

00:45:38out dancing with,

00:45:40flirting with boys.

00:45:42I actually

00:45:43kind of have

00:45:44this one boy.

00:45:45What?

00:45:45What's he like?

00:45:47It's complicated.

00:45:49Honey,

00:45:50you just need

00:45:50to follow your heart.

00:45:52Yeah,

00:45:53he's kind of sweet.

00:45:57Oh.

00:46:00Oh.

00:46:25your speech,

00:46:26we're going to

00:46:26dance the night away.

00:46:29I'm dreading

00:46:29giving this speech.

00:46:31I guess I'll just

00:46:31picture everyone

00:46:32wearing their underwear

00:46:33and I'll be fine, right?

00:46:34I always thought

00:46:35that was a little

00:46:35pervy, but

00:46:38you're going

00:46:39to be amazing.

00:46:41Thank you

00:46:42so much

00:46:43for helping

00:46:44with this

00:46:44charity ball idea.

00:46:46It was genius.

00:46:47I need to

00:46:48make it up to

00:46:49you at some point.

00:46:50I was just

00:46:50doing my job,

00:46:51Mr. Ellington.

00:46:55Well,

00:46:55I should get going.

00:46:56Wait,

00:46:57I should probably

00:46:58call Valentina, right?

00:47:00Make sure

00:47:01the dress fits.

00:47:03I'm sure

00:47:04she'd appreciate that.

00:47:05All right.

00:47:06Good night.

00:47:18Hello, darling.

00:47:19I just wanted

00:47:58you know?

00:47:59Are you trying

00:48:03Listen,

00:48:04random,

00:48:05does Hannah

00:48:05have a boyfriend?

00:48:08I don't think so.

00:48:10Do you like her?

00:48:12No.

00:48:13No.

00:48:14No.

00:48:14No, I'm just

00:48:15trying to make

00:48:16friendly conversation.

00:48:18Yeah.

00:48:20We need more balloons

00:48:21in the dining room.

00:48:24Oh.

00:48:26You're still here.

00:48:27Yeah.

00:48:28Uh, listen.

00:48:29If someone

00:48:31were to ask

00:48:32Hannah

00:48:33to dance,

00:48:34what do you think

00:48:35the chances are

00:48:35that she would say

00:48:36yes?

00:48:38Probably good.

00:48:40Are you going

00:48:41to ask her to dance?

00:48:41No.

00:48:42No.

00:48:43No, no, no, no, no.

00:48:44No, I'm just, um,

00:48:46a fan of,

00:48:47of wild,

00:48:48hypothetical scenarios.

00:48:49That one just

00:48:50sprung to mind.

00:48:51Mm-hmm.

00:48:52Okay.

00:48:54Yeah.

00:48:56Um,

00:48:57well,

00:48:57I'm,

00:49:02practice his speech.

00:49:04So,

00:49:04I'm going to do that

00:49:06I will see you later.

00:49:08All right,

00:49:11And you must be Ariel.

00:49:17Yes, hi.

00:49:20Hmm.

00:49:21You know,

00:49:21my grandson

00:49:22has spoken very fondly

00:49:23of you.

00:49:24He has?

00:49:24Oh, yes, yes.

00:49:25In fact,

00:49:26he says that,

00:49:27well,

00:49:27this whole thing

00:49:28was your idea.

00:49:30I suppose so.

00:49:32Wonderful.

00:49:34Kind of reminds me

00:49:35of something

00:49:35Blaine's father

00:49:36would have done

00:49:37if he were

00:49:37in Blaine's situation.

00:49:39Wow,

00:49:40that's such an honor.

00:49:41I heard he was

00:49:42a great man.

00:49:43He was a great man.

00:49:45Martina,

00:49:47have you had

00:49:47the pleasure

00:49:48of meeting

00:49:48Blaine's assistant,

00:49:49Ariel?

00:49:50Yes, briefly.

00:49:51She's really helped

00:49:52Blaine become

00:49:53quite an impressive CEO.

00:49:54Yes, she has.

00:49:56In fact,

00:49:56I can,

00:49:56I can see her

00:49:58playing a bigger role

00:49:59than Ellington

00:50:00if she keeps it up.

00:50:02Why wait?

00:50:02She could be a part

00:50:03of something huge tonight.

00:50:05Really?

00:50:06I think so.

00:50:07Don't you,

00:50:08Ariel?

00:50:09Uh,

00:50:09Miss Hunt?

00:50:11Amazing.

00:50:12Well,

00:50:13I can't wait.

00:50:18Me either.

00:50:19Me either.

00:50:23I can't wait.

00:50:37I can't wait.

00:50:54Ariel

00:50:56Blaine

00:50:58There you are

00:50:59I've been looking everywhere for you

00:51:00Here I am

00:51:01Have you seen Valentina?

00:51:04No, I don't think so

00:51:05About your height, flowy hair, no glasses

00:51:08Um, no, no, I don't think so

00:51:11In fact

00:51:12What?

00:51:14Nothing

00:51:15It's ridiculous

00:51:16I better say hi to those guests

00:51:18But if you could find her for me, that would be great

00:51:21I'll get right on that

00:51:23Thank you

00:51:23Bye

00:51:24Just go out there and hype Blaine up

00:51:35So he can deliver his speech

00:51:36Then we're back to finding the drive

00:51:38Okay

00:51:40He can do this

00:51:42Oh, hi Ariel

00:51:45Um, he must be mistaken, love

00:51:49I don't know this Ariel you speak of

00:51:52Yeah, okay

00:51:54Ariel

00:51:55No, seriously

00:51:57My name is Valentina Kingsley

00:51:59And I'm a very wealthy socialite

00:52:01Oh, I get it

00:52:03It's like one of those improv games or something

00:52:06No, no, no, no game

00:52:07My name is Valentina

00:52:09How should I be?

00:52:11Just be yourself

00:52:12I'm the Queen of England

00:52:14You can really tell it's me?

00:52:18Yeah, but I mean, I can be very observant

00:52:22Really?

00:52:23Okay, well, Hannah

00:52:25It's very important that this stays between us

00:52:27Okay

00:52:28Can I ask why?

00:52:30Well, it's really complicated

00:52:32Um, but you have to promise me you won't tell anybody about this

00:52:36Can we make it a pinky promise?

00:52:38Yeah, sure

00:52:40Aw, well, good luck with whatever this is

00:52:44Yeah, thanks

00:52:48I'm gonna need it

00:52:49Ah, there you are, darling

00:53:11Ah, Valentina

00:53:12I'm so glad to see you

00:53:14Look at this place

00:53:15I haven't seen a ball as elegant as this since the King of Spain's birthday

00:53:19I'm glad it lives up to your approval

00:53:20Of course

00:53:21You're doing a speech, I see

00:53:23Well, I'm not much of a speech giver

00:53:26They're gonna eat you up, darling

00:53:28You make me feel so confident

00:53:31I need to be looking at you when I give my speech

00:53:34Of course

00:53:42Okay, perfect

00:53:43Well, I saw a fellow philanthropist outside

00:53:46I must go speak with her

00:53:47Ah, Valentina

00:53:48I was thinking

00:53:50Maybe tonight I could show you the AI code

00:53:54Yes

00:53:56I would love to see what you've been working on

00:53:59Great

00:54:00Where would this be taking place?

00:54:02In the study, or?

00:54:03Upstairs

00:54:04Hidden in a very high-tech safe

00:54:07Ah, I see

00:54:09You actually inspired my security team

00:54:12To create a new hiding space for it

00:54:14What the heck did I say?

00:54:18I'll give you a hint

00:54:19If you were to look for it

00:54:20You'd be staring at the most beautiful thing in the world

00:54:23I'll let you get back to socializing

00:54:26Good luck, darling

00:54:29Thank you

00:54:33Excuse me

00:54:52What are you doing in here?

00:54:55Excuse me

00:55:00What are you doing in here?

00:55:03Um

00:55:03And who are you?

00:55:05Oh

00:55:05Um

00:55:06Uh

00:55:07Um

00:55:08I

00:55:08I, um

00:55:09You look lost

00:55:12I am darling

00:55:14I am lost

00:55:15I've been to a lot of mansions

00:55:17But this one is big

00:55:19Grandfather

00:55:21Yes

00:55:21Mrs. Valentina Kingsley

00:55:23Blaine's new girlfriend

00:55:24Oh

00:55:27Oh

00:55:27Yes

00:55:27From the front page of the Times

00:55:29Yes

00:55:30I've heard a lot about you

00:55:31I hope it was all good things

00:55:33Well

00:55:34I haven't seen him smile quite as much as he does now

00:55:37Since his father passed

00:55:39And I trust that Blaine is, uh

00:55:41Treating you

00:55:42Respectfully

00:55:44Like a lady

00:55:45He is

00:55:46Well

00:55:47It was a good thing that we were up here to find you

00:55:49If it had been during Blaine's speech

00:55:51No one would know you're here

00:55:53Right

00:55:55Good thing

00:55:56Shall we return to the party?

00:56:00Yes we shall

00:56:01Very nice meeting you, Mrs. Kingsley

00:56:03You too, sir

00:56:05Mm-hmm

00:56:06You seem quiet

00:56:26Is everything okay?

00:56:28Everything's fine, darling

00:56:29Hey, Valentina

00:56:31I have a girl question

00:56:33For you

00:56:34Oh my God

00:56:38For the love of God

00:56:39You clearly have a crush on Hannah

00:56:40Just ask her to dance

00:56:41You just met me

00:56:43You can already tell

00:56:44Yes

00:56:44You read me like a book

00:56:47And I see what Blaine sees in you

00:56:49You're really inquilitive

00:56:50In fact

00:56:51I'll go butter her up for you

00:56:53Would you?

00:56:54That would be great

00:56:55Dude

00:56:57Dude

00:56:57Hannah

00:57:01I need a favor

00:57:02Anything

00:57:03When Blaine is giving his speech

00:57:05I'm going to step away

00:57:06If anyone asks

00:57:07I'm not feeling well

00:57:08And Ariel

00:57:09Is going to help Valentina

00:57:11Get some medicine

00:57:12Got it

00:57:13Oh

00:57:22Oh right

00:57:23It's a ball

00:57:40Thank you

00:57:45For coming tonight

00:58:10Good evening, everyone

00:58:16I want to

00:58:18Before we get started

00:58:19Thank two people

00:58:20Who, without their help

00:58:22None of this would have happened tonight

00:58:23My assistant Ariel

00:58:25And my girlfriend

00:58:26Valentina

00:58:27Uh

00:58:29Not sure where they are right now

00:58:32But

00:58:34For having my back

00:58:35Hi, Anna

00:58:40Oh, hi

00:58:42You haven't seen Valentina

00:58:45Around, haven't you?

00:58:46I wanted to try to find her

00:58:47So she could watch

00:58:48Plain speech

00:58:48Valentina is sick

00:58:50And Ariel was helping her

00:58:53Get medicine

00:58:53Oh, okay

00:58:54Um, you look

00:58:58You look really pretty

00:58:59By the way

00:59:25Time to find this code

00:59:26Thank you

00:59:34Blaine mentioned something

00:59:45I said

00:59:45What the heck did I say

00:59:48The paintings

00:59:51Blaine mentioned something I said

00:59:57What the heck did I say?

00:59:59So

01:00:06Tonight

01:00:07I'm pledging

01:00:08Ten million dollars

01:00:10To help research cures

01:00:12For illnesses and disorders unknown

01:00:14Thank you all for coming

01:00:16I hope to see you

01:00:17On the dance floor

01:00:17I'm sorry, mom

01:00:37I feel to you

01:00:47I'll give you a hint

01:01:08If you were to look for it

01:01:10You'd be staring at the most beautiful thing in the world

01:01:13He wasn't talking about the painting

01:01:17He was talking about me

01:01:21He was talking about me

01:01:43Okay

01:01:44Okay

01:01:56Okay

01:02:09I think Ariel

01:02:13What could the numbers be?

01:02:26It couldn't be our first date

01:02:27Could it?

01:02:28Okay

01:02:39I've got the code

01:02:55Excellent, darling

01:02:57I'll give it to you after the ball

01:02:59Or you could give it to me now

01:03:01Flora

01:03:03What are you doing here?

01:03:08I have a way of being places I'm not supposed to be

01:03:12Just like you, apparently

01:03:14The code, darling

01:03:17The future

01:03:22In the palm of my hand

01:03:25I was beginning to think you didn't have it in you

01:03:28Blaine's a good man

01:03:30You're awful

01:03:33He's rich, darling

01:03:34He'll get over it

01:03:35My mom

01:03:36And her surgery

01:03:38I've been accused of many things

01:03:41But I always keep my word

01:03:43Now

01:03:44Go and celebrate

01:03:45You deserve it, darling

01:03:46Balancina

01:03:59Hi, darling

01:03:59There you are

01:04:14How are you feeling?

01:04:17Stronger than the rains in the Amazon, darling

01:04:19Excellent

01:04:20Care to dance?

01:04:22Certainly

01:04:23Well, well, well, well

01:04:28Look at the happy couple

01:04:32How did you get in?

01:04:39Oh, I have my ways

01:04:40We lied about our names on the guest list

01:04:43Anyway

01:04:44I just came here to congratulate you

01:04:48On your little events

01:04:50You need to leave

01:04:52Actually, I don't think I do

01:04:53Because I don't think you know who your little girlfriend is

01:04:57She's Valentina Kingsley

01:04:58No, no, no

01:05:00There is no Valentina Kingsley

01:05:03What?

01:05:04If only your little assistant

01:05:06Had assisted you

01:05:08In researching her

01:05:09You know, it's funny

01:05:10I haven't actually seen her

01:05:12All night

01:05:13Blaine, don't listen to him

01:05:15What is he talking about?

01:05:16Yes, she may have fooled everyone in here

01:05:21But an ex-boyfriend

01:05:23Never forgets a but

01:05:25Ariel?

01:05:36Ariel?

01:05:38Ariel?

01:05:39Ariel?

01:05:40Ariel?

01:05:41Ariel?

01:05:46Ariel?

01:05:47This whole time you've been Valentina?

01:05:50That's right

01:05:51This whole time you pretended to care about me

01:05:55But you're just a liar

01:05:57And worse

01:05:58She's poor

01:06:00Why?

01:06:01Yes, Ariel

01:06:03But why?

01:06:05I'm so sorry

01:06:06Ariel, Ariel, wait

01:06:08How embarrassing

01:06:11You know

01:06:14I looked into you

01:06:16You're in so much debt

01:06:17That it's surprising

01:06:18That you can't even rent

01:06:19The Lambo that you drove here

01:06:21How preposterous

01:06:22If anybody looks into that

01:06:24It will be a complete waste of time

01:06:25Ew

01:06:26You're poor?

01:06:30Regina!

01:06:33Whew

01:06:34You're my hero

01:06:36Thanks

01:06:37Sometimes I gotta just

01:06:39Gotta tell

01:06:39You know

01:06:40Ariel

01:06:44What are you smiling about?

01:06:55I mean, come on

01:06:56This proves it, right?

01:06:58He's a joke

01:06:59No, he's your brother, Martina

01:07:02He's a liability, Richard

01:07:04And you are giving him the company

01:07:06With the luxury of not having to deal with this shit show

01:07:08Because you won't be alive much longer

01:07:10Oh, well, don't bet on that

01:07:11You know, you've got a lot of nerve

01:07:13Talking to me like this, kid

01:07:15You've got a lot of nerve

01:07:17Letting this shit go down

01:07:19When the lifeboat is right in front of you

01:07:20I should be running this company

01:07:22Or

01:07:24Is this what success looks like to you?

01:07:30Look, I'm not for it

01:07:32I don't want to hear it

01:07:32I do not want to hear it

01:07:34I promise you

01:07:35You lied to me

01:07:35Not only did you lie to me

01:07:36But you embarrassed me in there

01:07:38That is fair

01:07:39Come on

01:07:40That is fair

01:07:41Come on

01:07:42Come on

01:07:42Regina

01:07:45Regina

01:07:45That was a disaster

01:08:08I just don't understand

01:08:12Why would she go through all that?

01:08:16I don't know

01:08:16But

01:08:17These scandals are exhausting

01:08:20Yeah

01:08:21I don't think I'll be dating anytime soon

01:08:24Why?

01:08:29I got a lot to think about

01:08:31What do you mean?

01:08:33I mean

01:08:34We may have to take the company

01:08:35In a complete different direction

01:08:37If we're going to gain back

01:08:38The public's trust

01:08:39You can't be serious

01:08:41Oh

01:08:42Something better happen sooner

01:08:47I guess much worse

01:08:49Did she want anything from you?

01:08:53I don't know, Martina

01:08:55Nothing valuable?

01:08:56Martina

01:08:57I said I don't

01:08:58No

01:09:19No

01:09:19Ariel

01:09:28Baby

01:09:29Oh

01:09:31You look like you had a rough night

01:09:33It was a disaster, really

01:09:36I feel awful

01:09:38Oh

01:09:39I'm so sorry to hear that, baby

01:09:41Thanks, Mom

01:09:42Well

01:09:44I have something to tell you

01:09:46Dr. Westfall called

01:09:48Are you okay?

01:09:49What's going on?

01:09:50He

01:09:51Said

01:09:52That anonymous donor

01:09:53Sent in the funds

01:09:54For me to have my operation

01:09:56What?

01:09:57I'm scheduled for surgery

01:09:58On Tuesday

01:09:59Oh my God

01:10:00Oh

01:10:01Mom, I'm so happy

01:10:05I think this calls for my

01:10:07Famous chocolate cake, huh?

01:10:09I agree

01:10:18It's time to celebrate

01:10:43To the future, darling

01:10:47Drink

01:10:53You've worked much too hard

01:10:55Not to revel in your victory

01:10:56There it is

01:11:01Doesn't our little prize look nice?

01:11:04People walk in and out of my office

01:11:07Having no idea what's in the room with them

01:11:09Of course, I won't be able to enjoy too much longer

01:11:13Since my programmer is going to pick it up tonight

01:11:15I guess I just feel bad

01:11:17To get what you want in life

01:11:20Sometimes you have to do bold things

01:11:22Break the rules a little

01:11:24I guess

01:11:26Ask any CEO

01:11:29And they'll agree

01:11:30Including your little boy toy

01:11:32Blaine would never do anything like that

01:11:34Well, anyway

01:11:36Speaking of money

01:11:38Let's get that surgery paid for, shall we?

01:11:41What?

01:11:42All I need is your wiring info

01:11:43And I can send it on over

01:11:45I trust that the original estimate hasn't changed?

01:11:50I'm sorry

01:11:50You haven't paid for the surgery yet?

01:11:53No

01:11:54That's why we're here, isn't it?

01:11:58Not, Aline

01:11:59All right

01:12:23One more drink

01:12:25And we'll start packing up my things

01:12:26Deal, one more

01:12:29Anna

01:12:34Hi, Mr. Ellington

01:12:35May I come in?

01:12:36Sure

01:12:36Come on in

01:12:37Hi, cutie

01:12:39Care for a drink?

01:12:43Oh, no

01:12:43I stopped drinking on the job ages ago

01:12:45Wait, what was that?

01:12:47Mr. Ellington

01:12:47I have a delivery for you

01:12:49From who?

01:12:51Ariel

01:12:51From who?

01:12:57Ariel

01:12:57I don't want it

01:12:59Take it back

01:13:00She said you might say that

01:13:02But she said that it was very, very important

01:13:04How important?

01:13:07I don't know

01:13:08But she did say that it was something so important

01:13:10That she only trusted me to deliver it

01:13:12So it must be a big deal

01:13:13Oh, my God

01:13:28Oh, my God

01:13:29Ew, what's happening?

01:13:31What's going on?

01:13:32What does it mean?

01:13:33What does it mean?

01:13:37Oh, my God

01:13:43Oh, Flora

01:13:51Yes, darling

01:13:52Your appointment had to leave early

01:13:54I asked if they wanted to schedule

01:13:55But they said no

01:13:56I didn't have any appointments scheduled for today

01:13:59What was the name?

01:14:03Valentina Kingsley

01:14:04You're rich

01:14:22You'll get over it

01:14:24Darling

01:14:25What's going on?

01:14:40What does this mean?

01:14:46Thank you

01:14:46For everything

01:14:47Hannah, did you want to help me with that, uh

01:14:54That thing

01:14:54I'd love to

01:14:56Yes, yes

01:14:56Let's, uh, do that

01:14:57Can you please get the hell out of my seat?

01:15:09Lane

01:15:09There's no easy way for me to say this

01:15:12But it's time

01:15:15But it's time

01:15:24To celebrate

01:15:30You are going to regret this

01:15:36I promise you that

01:15:37Geeze

01:15:42What did you do?

01:15:43I don't know, girl

01:15:44But the way she wears that dress

01:15:46She can step on me

01:15:48Any day

01:15:49Let me see

01:15:51I knew you could do it

01:15:52I know

01:15:52You know

01:15:54Your dad would be so proud of you

01:15:58Ha, ha, ha

01:16:00Ha, ha

01:16:07Dr. Westphal

01:16:09Oh, hi, Ariel

01:16:10Hey, surgery over

01:16:11How did it go?

01:16:12Yes, we just finished

01:16:13Um, there were complications

01:16:15Well

01:16:15Complications?

01:16:16Yes, but

01:16:17We were able to work through them

01:16:18And your mother's going to be just fine

01:16:20Really?

01:16:22Yeah, really, yes

01:16:23In fact, they're wheeling her back into her room right now

01:16:25She's going to need to rest for a few hours

01:16:27But when she wakes up

01:16:28She's going to feel better than she has in a long time

01:16:30I can't thank you enough

01:16:32I'm happy to help

01:16:37Thank you

01:17:07Come in, come in. Welcome.

01:17:18Ariel?

01:17:20Mom, when did you leave out of bed? The doctor said to stay in after surgery.

01:17:24I know, I know, but I saw this cute guy through the window and I got kind of excited.

01:17:30Are you hungry, thirsty?

01:17:32No, thank you, but thank you.

01:17:33Oh, thank you. Sit down, make yourself comfortable.

01:17:37Mom, do you mind giving us some privacy?

01:17:40Oh, of course. I'll just be right over here, don't mind me.

01:17:54I'm so, so sorry.

01:17:56I, uh, I understand why you did it.

01:18:01And you gave me the drive back, so there's no need to apologize.

01:18:04Thank you for everything.

01:18:08I don't even know where to start.

01:18:12I'm not looking for an apology.

01:18:15You're not?

01:18:16No.

01:18:17See, I'm still CEO and I need an assistant.

01:18:21And you're kind of the best in town.

01:18:23I accept.

01:18:27And, uh, I'm still looking for a girlfriend.

01:18:34Well, if you're open to it, I'd love to apply.

01:18:38I love you, Valentina.

01:18:52I, I mean, Ariel.

01:18:54That's gonna take some getting used to.

01:18:58There aren't any starry rooftop views here,

01:19:01but this is my special place.

01:19:03It's even better.

01:19:05It's even better.
