00:00:00They say the most primal human things are fighting.
00:00:04And, well, I was about to learn both.
00:00:11Every girl wants to find her prince charming.
00:00:13But, unfortunately, we don't exactly live in a fairy tale world.
00:00:17There's no such thing as happily ever after.
00:00:21Where is the duck for table two?
00:00:23Table two ordered something special, chef.
00:00:25Uh, no. Table two ordered the special, and the special is the duck.
00:00:32What is this?
00:00:33Nothing.
00:00:34Yes, exactly. This is nothing. Now, the duck.
00:00:38Just do what your boss says, Lily. You can't afford to lose another job.
00:00:42How can you pay for mom's operation when you're homeless?
00:00:45Table two, the duck.
00:00:51So, I'm thinking about adopting a dog.
00:00:53You know, like the little tiny dogs that can fit in your handbag.
00:00:56They're so cute.
00:00:57So, anyway, once your inheritance is secure,
00:01:00the Morrison deal is all in the bag.
00:01:02But, what is this mystery clause you won't tell us about, Jack?
00:01:08Jack.
00:01:10Jack.
00:01:11Hello?
00:01:12Yeah, the duck.
00:01:16Hi.
00:01:20Hi.
00:01:23You ordered the special?
00:01:28Actually, I ordered the...
00:01:29Trust me.
00:01:30Who is that girl?
00:01:32Something about her.
00:01:35It's like I've been waiting for her my whole life.
00:01:36Wow.
00:01:37That was presumptuous.
00:01:39Huh?
00:01:39The waitress not bringing you what I ordered?
00:01:42Don't tell me you're actually impressed with that little slut, Jack.
00:01:44It looks good.
00:01:46The food or the waitress?
00:01:48And what do you think you are doing?
00:01:59I'm making something from the century.
00:02:01You know what?
00:02:01That's it.
00:02:02I've had enough.
00:02:03You are fired.
00:02:03Get out of here.
00:02:04Not this again.
00:02:07What did you say?
00:02:09I am serious this time.
00:02:11You are fired.
00:02:11You get out of here.
00:02:12What?
00:02:13You take this.
00:02:14You give up your act.
00:02:15You get out.
00:02:16No, please, sir.
00:02:16It won't happen again.
00:02:18No, it's no more Mr. Nice Guys.
00:02:19It's time you get out.
00:02:20You leave.
00:02:21Please.
00:02:21No, no.
00:02:22Go ahead.
00:02:23Full call.
00:02:23Man.
00:02:24Return.
00:02:27They're taking the trash out, I see.
00:02:31Yeah, the trash.
00:02:37Asshole.
00:02:46Don't scream.
00:02:57Don't scream.
00:02:58Don't scream, baby.
00:03:00Or do scream for me.
00:03:02Hey.
00:03:15Hey, wait.
00:03:16Not now, Warner.
00:03:42Jack, my man.
00:03:43Hupasso.
00:03:44So I'm a little disappointed that you're making me ask again.
00:03:47When are you going to unlock the inheritance, bro?
00:03:49The deal of a lifetime isn't going to wait forever.
00:03:52Yeah.
00:03:53Yeah, come on, are you even listening?
00:03:56I mean, if we don't move on this Morrison thing, someone else will.
00:03:59And I mean, I'm not going to be that guy.
00:04:01Are you going to be that guy?
00:04:02Um.
00:04:05How can I help my mom when I can't even afford something to eat?
00:04:10Maybe next time.
00:04:11Thanks.
00:04:15Call me.
00:04:16I'll call you back.
00:04:17Jack, come on.
00:04:18He'll lock on me.
00:04:19Jack's never done that before.
00:04:21If he doesn't lock away this inheritance deal, then the Morrison deal's over.
00:04:27We're over.
00:04:29Don't you worry your wrinkled little forehead, Warren.
00:04:31I've got just the plan.
00:04:40Just when I think I've found her, she's gone again.
00:04:43How am I going to find her again?
00:04:59You could always marry Vivian Chase, sir.
00:05:01You out of your mind?
00:05:02Vivian and I are done.
00:05:04Never again.
00:05:05She's just business now.
00:05:08Very well, sir.
00:05:10Although it is your inheritance at stake, sir.
00:05:13I'll find another wife.
00:05:14I'm afraid not.
00:05:16But the terms of your parents' will are quite specific.
00:05:19You must be married before your 32nd birthday for precisely 365 days.
00:05:25I know, I know.
00:05:26And with that fateful birthday fast approaching, there's little time.
00:05:30The inheritance must be claimed within the month.
00:05:33And most crucially of all, you must not tell a soul about the marriage cause.
00:05:39Especially your wife.
00:05:41Or I lose everything.
00:05:43Everything.
00:05:43Don't complain about things.
00:05:55I don't complain.
00:05:56I don't.
00:05:57All I'm saying is, you're going to have to start living in the real world.
00:06:01I am living in the real world.
00:06:08Really?
00:06:09Because getting fired yet from another restaurant job is the real world.
00:06:12Creative differences.
00:06:15There are always creative differences with you.
00:06:19Lily.
00:06:21You've got to open up your own place.
00:06:23You're a chef, not a fucking line cook.
00:06:25So you've got to show the world what you've got.
00:06:28Besides, I have my share of money.
00:06:31But without yours, we're never going to be able to afford Mom's operation.
00:06:36Yeah, it'll be all my fault.
00:06:39Lily.
00:06:42There is an opening at my office.
00:06:45Seriously?
00:06:46It's stable.
00:06:48Health insurance.
00:06:49401k.
00:06:50I'd rather die.
00:06:51You'd rather be broke.
00:06:52No, I'd rather...
00:06:53How can you help Mom when you can't even take care of yourself?
00:07:03Fine, yeah.
00:07:10You're right.
00:07:11Let's do it.
00:07:12Let's do it.
00:07:14Hi.
00:07:38Name?
00:07:42Lily Dunning.
00:07:43Can I help you?
00:07:45Yes, I'm here for the job interview.
00:07:47My sister's Megan.
00:07:48She works here.
00:07:50Last place of employment?
00:07:52Chez Francois.
00:07:54A restaurant?
00:07:55Yes, I'm a chef.
00:07:57My passion's cooking, so I...
00:07:59And does this look like a restaurant to you?
00:08:01No.
00:08:03No, of course not.
00:08:05And why do you think someone like you could work here?
00:08:10Um, I just need a job.
00:08:13Sorry, I'm...
00:08:14Thanks, we'll let you know, okay?
00:08:18You can go now.
00:08:20Bye-bye.
00:08:20Screw this.
00:08:33Fuck.
00:08:43What are you looking at?
00:08:50I'm sorry, Mom.
00:08:54I've tried everything, and I've let you down.
00:08:56You.
00:08:59Me.
00:09:03You dropped something.
00:09:06How did you?
00:09:10What are you doing here?
00:09:12I have a proposition for you.
00:09:15Sorry, I'm not interested in propositions from strange men in suits.
00:09:19Well, hold on, just hear me out.
00:09:21I heard you get fired.
00:09:23I know you don't have any money.
00:09:26Looks like you're in a bit of a rough spot.
00:09:28I'm doing fine, thank you.
00:09:31Really?
00:09:34What if I told you this proposition could solve all your problems?
00:09:39Really?
00:09:41Solve all my problems?
00:09:43I've got a lot of problems.
00:09:45What if I told you I need a wife?
00:09:47I tell you that there are apps for that.
00:09:49For one year.
00:09:50Classy.
00:09:51Look, listen.
00:09:53I have a very important business deal.
00:09:55With some very important people involved.
00:09:57And they need to see stability.
00:10:00Okay, so find someone stable.
00:10:02Well, that's just it.
00:10:04I need someone who won't fall in love with me.
00:10:06Someone who will just walk away after the year.
00:10:09And you seem uniquely qualified.
00:10:13What, you think I'm good at walking away?
00:10:14Okay, well, what's in it for me?
00:10:23Well, anything you want.
00:10:24Money.
00:10:25Place to live.
00:10:27Complete financial freedom to pursue your dreams.
00:10:30Just think of it as a business deal.
00:10:31Wow.
00:10:41Yeah, that's a really big diamond.
00:10:47It's just a very small part of the deal.
00:10:48You'll have your whole wing of the house.
00:11:02My own wing?
00:11:03Complete privacy.
00:11:05But you will have to attend events with me.
00:11:07Play the happy wife.
00:11:08This is, um, specific.
00:11:35I like clarity.
00:11:35I like clarity.
00:11:38Wife agrees to perform.
00:11:48Hmm.
00:11:50Very specific.
00:11:54Is there a problem?
00:11:56Jack, we need to talk.
00:12:01What's going on here?
00:12:06No.
00:12:08I'm saying yes.
00:12:23To everything.
00:12:24Do you, Jack Thorne?
00:12:42This is insane.
00:12:43Shut up, boy.
00:12:45Take Lily Dunning to be your lawfully wedded wife.
00:12:49This is fucking nice.
00:12:50Shut the fuck up.
00:12:51I do.
00:12:56I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:13:59And this is where Mr. Thorne likes to entertain of an evening.
00:14:25And the room on the left is the kitchen.
00:14:27And we have the West Wing Library and the East Wing Pool.
00:14:42How do you find anything in here?
00:14:48One of deaths, madam.
00:14:49And this room is the, um...
00:15:03Oh, dear.
00:15:06Would you excuse me?
00:15:08Of course.
00:15:09Apologies.
00:15:10I'm sorry.
00:15:12I'm sorry.
00:15:13I'm sorry.
00:15:13I'm sorry.
00:15:14What are you doing here?
00:15:44Oh my gosh.
00:16:13Bravo?
00:16:16This is a lot.
00:16:19The contract stipulates appropriate is hired for all occasions, including tonight's
00:16:23charity gala.
00:16:24I can't accept this.
00:16:25You can.
00:16:26And you will.
00:16:27Unless you want to attend the event in jeans.
00:16:31You know, this doesn't mean that I like you.
00:16:38Wouldn't dream of it.
00:16:39Ready for your debut, Mrs. Thorne?
00:16:41Yes, I am.
00:16:42Mr. Thorne.
00:16:43Yes, I am.
00:16:44Mr. Thorne.
00:16:45And then I said, do you want me to cut this steak?
00:16:46I don't need a knife.
00:16:47I need a chainsaw.
00:16:48I need a chainsaw.
00:17:19Warren tells me the Morrison deal is all in the bag.
00:17:22We simply must celebrate.
00:17:24I heard about your little stunt wedding.
00:17:27That doesn't mean we can't celebrate, right?
00:17:30I could think of a dozen things you could do to me.
00:17:39My God.
00:17:40This is a $10,000 Valentino.
00:17:43I'm sorry, but I didn't even do anything.
00:17:47Where did you find this one, Jackie?
00:17:49Wagstaff Training School?
00:17:51Vivian.
00:17:54Oh, that was it.
00:17:55She was actually a waitress.
00:17:57Or, I don't remember, whatever it was.
00:18:01Excuse me.
00:18:04So, what do you guys have?
00:18:06Watch out for the eggs.
00:18:13As I was saying.
00:18:39You know, you should really come over here and taste this.
00:18:43Wow.
00:18:44Good?
00:18:45Surprisingly good.
00:18:46Surprisingly good.
00:18:47Surprisingly good.
00:18:48Well, payment for spying.
00:18:50Wow
00:19:06Good
00:19:08Surprisingly good
00:19:10Surprisingly good
00:19:12Payment for spying
00:19:15Payment accepted
00:19:18You know
00:19:19The house this grand
00:19:21I would expect
00:19:23A kitchen to match
00:19:25I had to make do
00:19:29No I never cook
00:19:31It's a shame
00:19:33You can go now
00:19:49You um
00:19:59Wanted to see me
00:20:01Time for your first lesson
00:20:03My what?
00:20:09Self defense
00:20:10Never know when you might need it
00:20:13I don't know if that's really
00:20:15Stance
00:20:16Move the feet apart
00:20:20Bend this knee
00:20:22Yeah
00:20:23Then move this foot forward
00:20:25Okay
00:20:26Okay
00:20:27Now
00:20:28Hands up
00:20:29Protect the face
00:20:31Okay
00:20:32Now
00:20:34Like this
00:20:35I'm not really good at this
00:20:43We're just getting started
00:20:46Oh
00:20:47Maybe we should just focus on business
00:20:51Rule number one
00:20:54Stance
00:20:56Right?
00:20:58Right
00:20:58Every chef needs proper tools
00:21:28I have
00:21:29A business expense
00:21:32Business expense
00:21:35These are
00:21:37The best knives in the market
00:21:39The best knives for the best chef
00:21:41Why are you doing this?
00:21:46The contract
00:21:47No
00:21:48The real reason
00:21:51Maybe I just like watching you work
00:21:53Maybe
00:21:57Maybe
00:21:57You just like watching me
00:22:01You know that
00:22:06This doesn't change anything
00:22:09Of course not
00:22:10This is for your mother
00:22:17No
00:22:24This is too much
00:22:25You should cover the whole thing
00:22:26They second it
00:22:29I think that's literally the nicest thing a male has ever done for me
00:22:35What's the catch?
00:22:38We've got a problem
00:22:51Morning to you too
00:22:52So the inheritance release date is set but
00:22:55If anyone finds out about the marriage then
00:22:57No one's gonna find out
00:22:59Oh really?
00:23:00Because your little chef seems to be quite the talk of the town
00:23:02It's under control
00:23:03Is it?
00:23:07It seems like you're letting your feelings control your
00:23:10I said it's handled
00:23:11Just remember what's at stake here, yeah?
00:23:24This Morrison deal
00:23:25Is a deal of a lifetime
00:23:28Don't tell me you're actually fool
00:23:32Get out
00:23:58I said it's handled
00:23:59I said it's handled

00:24:27guitar solo
00:24:57Oh no, God
00:25:09Jack, darling, about to see you here
00:25:26Vivian?
00:25:27The 82 Crystal
00:25:28Remember the Crystal Jack?
00:25:32I can still feel it running down my back
00:25:34just thinking about it
00:25:35We even used to drink some of it
00:25:37Anyway, we have business to discuss
00:25:40You'll never believe what Hannah said
00:25:42about the Asian market today
00:25:43Oh, I'm so sorry
00:25:48This must be so boring for you
00:25:51You're so insightful, Vivian
00:25:52You do bore me
00:25:54Darling, the adults have business to discuss
00:25:58Why don't you go back to like chopping
00:26:00or whatever it is that you do?
00:26:03So basically, you know the company way
00:26:05that we have our investments holding in?
00:26:06I had a business meeting with Hannah today
00:26:08and she has basically advised me to say that
00:26:11our investments are not making any profit
00:26:12because not me as self isn't actually doing all too well
00:26:15So my proposal for next year would be basically

00:26:43Social pages
00:26:45Two days from first meeting to marriage
00:26:48This must be some kind of record
00:26:51Though lately I've been more interested in business deals
00:26:55Hmm
00:26:56What would you say?
00:26:59Love at first sight
00:27:00or something more contractual?

00:50:38You can't just hide here forever.
00:50:46Watch me.
00:50:58Hey.
00:50:59What happened to the girl who would never back down?
00:51:03The one who quit her job because she didn't want to compromise?
00:51:07Played.
00:51:07Did she?
00:51:08If that's Jack.
00:51:14I'm sure that's just my oxygenarian neighbor who's a total drama queen.
00:51:18Watch.
00:51:20Gladys?
00:51:23Gladys, is that you?
00:51:25Do you need help with your phone?
00:51:33Sir.
00:51:35Coffee.
00:51:36I...
00:51:37I did some digging around like you asked, sir.
00:51:40You might want to see this.
00:51:46What am I looking at here?
00:51:47Wire transfers, shell companies, all leading back to Mr. Block.
00:51:53More.
00:51:54I knew it.
00:51:55And you might want to see these too, sir.
00:51:57They'll illuminate things even more.
00:52:03Son of a bitch.
00:52:05He's trying to steal the inheritance.
00:52:06He sure is.
00:52:08All through a series of cleverly placed shell companies.
00:52:11Although I suspect Ms. Chase's interests are not purely financial.
00:52:17Sir?
00:52:17They're threatening Lily and her sister.
00:52:31Then perhaps it's time we stop playing their game.
00:52:35Give me everything you can about Warren.
00:52:36Every meeting, every call.
00:52:37I'm already compiled, sir.
00:52:39I had a feeling we might need this.
00:52:40Sir, what about the inheritance?
00:52:42Some things are worth more than money.
00:52:57I'm going back, Megan.
00:52:59I'm going back, Megan.
00:53:29I got us into this, I can get us out of this, I can do this, I can do this.
00:53:55Your little cookie's on her way over to save her sister as we speak.
00:53:59And I wouldn't put money on how well that's gonna go.
00:54:03If anything happens to her, that's up to you.
00:54:08Sign the papers.
00:54:09And this all goes away.
00:54:13Like those photos of you of me from that reporter, suddenly went away.
00:54:20Deepfakes really do hurt everyone involved, don't they?
00:54:24I always knew you were soft.
00:54:26But this, throwing away a billion dollar inheritance for some chef.
00:54:31He's not throwing it away.
00:54:33He's giving it to us.
00:54:35All we need is a signature, Jack.
00:54:39You care too much, Jackie boy.
00:54:42Always have.
00:54:44I think we might need to send a little message.
00:54:49Hmm.
00:54:50Wait.
00:54:51Wait.
00:54:52Let me go, you psycho.
00:55:00Remember your training.
00:55:01Protect your face.
00:55:02Megan!
00:55:03Lenny!
00:55:04Welcome to the party, sweetheart.
00:55:05Come on.
00:55:06Come on.
00:55:07Come on.
00:55:08Come on.
00:55:09Come on.
00:55:10Come on.
00:55:11Come on.
00:55:12Come on.
00:55:13Come on.
00:55:14Come on.
00:55:15Let me go, you psycho.
00:55:17Okay, go.
00:55:18Remember your training.
00:55:21Remember your training.
00:55:22Protect your face.
00:55:24Megan!
00:55:26Lenny!
00:55:27Welcome to the party, sweetheart.
00:55:34Come on, please.
00:55:35Come on.
00:55:36Come on.
00:55:37Of course it's a trap.
00:55:44The question is, what are you going to do about it?
00:55:49Lily!
00:55:53I've traced the video feed to the Starlight Motel, sir.
00:55:56Room 115.
00:55:57Lauren's called the police.
00:55:59Already done, but sir, they're at least 20 minutes out.
00:56:02She doesn't have 20 minutes.
00:56:07No, no, no, no, no.
00:56:12Lauren, she's there.
00:56:14Lily's there.
00:56:19Hold on, Lily.
00:56:20Hold on.
00:56:34Leave her alone!
00:56:35Sarah!
00:56:37Get away from my wife!
00:56:39Well, well.
00:56:41A hero arrives.
00:56:44Don't do it, Jackie boy!
00:56:48I'm not some damsel in distress!
00:56:51That's my girl.
00:57:00Oh.
00:57:01I guess it is real love, huh?
00:57:03That's for my sister.
00:57:15You son of a bitch.
00:57:16I'm not some of you.
00:57:19Neil.
00:57:22Lily.
00:57:23Not everything.
00:57:25The photos.
00:57:26Vivian.
00:57:28Now?
00:57:28Seriously?
00:57:29I love you.
00:57:31Not for any inheritance.
00:57:34Not for any deal.
00:57:35Just...
00:57:37Neil.
00:57:40I know.
00:57:40You.
00:57:50Stay right there.
00:57:52Come on.
00:57:52Cuff him.
00:58:04What the hell?
00:58:04This isn't...
00:58:09Possible.
00:58:13And I wouldn't put money on how well that's gonna go.
00:58:15Sign the papers.
00:58:16Deepfakes really do hurt everyone involved.
00:58:19That proves nothing.
00:58:20I think it might prove something.
00:58:22Yeah, and those photos that you planted?
00:58:24Maybe use better AI next time.
00:58:26You can.
00:58:27Yes, they can.
00:58:29And you two are under arrest.
00:58:32You'll regret this, Jack.
00:58:34The inheritance that...
00:58:35Are nothing compared to what I almost lost.
00:58:38You could have had it all, Jack.
00:58:42I do.
00:58:49Yes, thank you.
00:58:51Thanks.
00:58:52Now that's the story.
00:59:01Here to twist the knife?
00:59:03Actually...
00:59:04I'm here to get it right.
00:59:07Where did you...
00:59:08Lawrence sends his regards.
00:59:11Seems your butler is a little armchair investigative journalist.
00:59:15So, no scandal piece?
00:59:17Oh, there's definitely a scandal.
00:59:19But, not the one they wanted me to bite on.
00:59:26That's actually accurate.
00:59:28I'm a reporter.
00:59:30Truth is kind of my thing.
00:59:32Though I must admit, I didn't see the secret martial arts skills coming.
00:59:37Yeah, neither did they.
00:59:39Story runs tomorrow.
00:59:42Catch you on the next scandal.
00:59:43It will be about the inheritance.
00:59:52You really think that I care about any of that now?
00:59:59Just take me home.
01:00:02Yes, dear.
01:00:03Sun's coming, huh?
01:00:13Must be a new record.
01:00:16It is for me.
01:00:19Any regrets?
01:00:21Only one.
01:00:24That didn't get your chef special sooner.
01:00:26Could have saved us last time.
01:00:28Yeah.
01:00:29How?
01:00:29Excuse me, sir.
01:00:34Miss Chen's article is out.
01:00:36How bad is it?
01:00:38Well, actually, sir, you might want to see it.
01:00:40She's included the last bit you wanted to put in.
01:00:43Jack Thorne announced plans.
01:00:57In a shocking turn of events, tech entrepreneur Jack Thorne announced his plans to transform
01:01:02his inherited fortune into the city's largest culinary grant program.
01:01:07Surprised?
01:01:08But your inheritance is gone.
01:01:14Well, the inheritance, yeah.
01:01:16But turns out selling a tech company can be quite profitable.
01:01:19You sold the company?
01:01:21Turns out some things are worth more than money.
01:01:30I'm sorry.
01:01:32I don't know.
01:01:32Perfect, Julie and Danny.
01:01:40Keep them thin, okay?
01:01:41Just like that.
01:01:57This looks good on you.
01:01:58And who said there's no such thing as a happily ever after?
01:02:04Suckers.
01:02:05Can I get you your usual, sir?
01:02:08It depends.
01:02:10Did my wife make it?
01:02:11The very same wife that you married for business?
01:02:14Best business decision I ever made.
01:02:22Hang on.
01:02:23Hang on.
01:02:28I'm the best chef in town.
01:02:38You're only saying that because you're contractually obligated.
01:02:43I think that contract expired.
01:02:46Good thing I signed a new one.
01:02:47We are gathered here today.
01:02:56No more business deals this time.
01:02:58Just love.
01:03:00Good.
01:03:01Because I have some terms of my own.
01:03:05First, you have to eat everything I cook.
01:03:09Done.
01:03:11Second, no more locked rooms.
01:03:14Without me in it.
01:03:19Is that all?
01:03:21Third.
01:03:22You have to mean it this time.
01:03:24I met it the first time.
01:03:26Just didn't know you.
01:03:29The rings?
01:03:30Actually.
01:03:31Is that?
01:03:37Something old.
01:03:39Something new.
01:03:40Something borrowed.
01:03:42Something not one.
01:03:52For better or worse.
01:03:55For real this time.
01:03:58You make us the bride.
01:03:59What?
01:04:01Yeah.
01:04:15So.
01:04:16Are you ready for your honeymoon?
01:04:19What are you...
01:04:21Lauren, tell me back.
01:04:24Mrs. Thorne, are you trying to negotiate new business terms?
01:04:34I don't know.
01:04:36Mr. Thorne.
01:04:39Can you handle them?
01:04:41I thought this wasn't about business anymore.
01:04:45How about you just shut up and kiss your wife?
01:04:48No.
01:04:55I don't know.
01:05:00acquises or your wife?
01:05:00What?
01:05:01What?
01:05:02Ah.
01:05:03What?
01:05:06It's not even, man.
01:05:08It's not even��y.
01:05:10It's not enough, man.
01:05:10It really wasn't enough for us to succeed.
01:05:12It's not enough, it's in thiscampus.
01:05:14It's not enough.
01:05:14It's not enough.
01:05:15It's not enough.
01:05:16It's not enough.
01:05:16It's not enough.
