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, wait.
00:03:20Hey, wait.
00:03:26Not now, Werner.
00:03:42Jack, my man.
00:03:43Cupasso.
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.
00:03:54Are 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.
00:04:13Thanks.
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...
00:04:23The Morrison deal's over.
00:04:27We're over.
00:04:28Don't you worry your wrinkled little forehead, Warren.
00:04:32I'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.
00:05:01Are you out of your mind?
00:05:02Vivian and I are done.
00:05:04Never again.
00:05:05She's just...
00:05:07business now.
00:05:08Very well, sir.
00:05:10Although it is your inheritance at stake, sir.
00:05:13I'll find another way.
00:05:14I'm afraid not.
00:05:16But the terms of your parents' will are quite specific.
00:05:20You must be married before your 32nd birthday for precisely 365 days.
00:05:25I know, I know.
00:05:25And 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 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.
00:07:09Yeah, you'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?
00:08:45I'm sorry, Mom.
00:08:53I'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.
00:09:14Sorry, 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? Solve all my problems?
00:09:42Problems. I'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 with 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.
00:10:03I 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.
00:10:13Right, you think I'm good at walking away?
00:10:21Okay, 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.
00:10:29Just think of it as a business deal.
00:10:40Wow.
00:10:43Yeah, that's a really big diamond.
00:10:47It's just a very small part of the deal.
00:10:48Okay.
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?
00:11:57Jack, we need to talk.
00:12:01What's going on here?
00:12:06No.
00:12:08I'm saying yes.
00:12:23To everything.
00:12:24To 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.
00:13:00I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:13:03I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:13:43This marriage is just a contract.
00:13:51Well, I think that the contract says that this is my room.
00:14:07Good night, husband.
00:14:13And this is where Mr. Thorne likes to entertain of an evening.
00:14:25In 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.
00:14:57And this room is the...
00:15:02Oh, dear.
00:15:07Would you excuse me?
00:15:08Of course.
00:15:09Apologies.
00:15:10Oh, dear.
00:15:17Oh, dear.
00:15:17It's a very good night.
00:15:19To be continued.
00:15:20What are you doing here?
00:15:50Oh, my gosh.
00:16:12Bravo?
00:16:15This is a lot.
00:16:18Your contract stipulates appropriate is higher for all occasions, including tonight's charity gala.
00:16:25I can't accept this.
00:16:27You can, and you will.
00:16:30Unless you want to attend the event in jeans.
00:16:37You know, this doesn't mean that I like you.
00:16:40Wouldn't dream of it.
00:16:48Ready for your debut, Mrs. Thorne?
00:16:56Yes, I am, Mr. Thorne.
00:17:05And then I said, do you want me to cut this steak?
00:17:12I don't need a knife.
00:17:14I need a chainsaw.
00:17:15Okay.
00:17:17Jackie, there you are.
00:17:20Warren tells me the Morrison deal is all in the bag.
00:17:22We simply must celebrate.
00:17:25I heard about your little stunt wedding.
00:17:28That doesn't mean we can't celebrate, right?
00:17:31I can think of a dozen things you could do to me.
00:17:38My God.
00:17:41This is a $10,000 Valentino.
00:17:44I'm sorry, but I didn't even do anything.
00:17:48Where did you find this one, Jackie?
00:17:49Waitstaff Training School?
00:17:51Vivian.
00:17:52Oh, that was it.
00:17:56She was actually a waitress.
00:17:58Or, I don't remember, whatever it was.
00:18:01Excuse me.
00:18:05So, when she got to the house,
00:18:07I went down for the ex.
00:18:14As I was saying.
00:18:22You know, you should really come over here and taste this.
00:18:52Wow.
00:19:07Good?
00:19:09Surprisingly good.
00:19:10Surprisingly good.
00:19:13Well, payment for spying.
00:19:16Payment accepted.
00:19:17You know,
00:19:19the house this grand,
00:19:21I would expect
00:19:23a kitchen to match.
00:19:28I had to make do.
00:19:30No, I never cook.
00:19:31Hmm.
00:19:32It's a shame.
00:19:41You can go now.
00:19:47You, um,
00:19:59wanted to see me.
00:20:02Time for your first lesson.
00:20:04My what?
00:20:10Self-defense.
00:20:12Never know when you might need it.
00:20:13I don't know if that's really...
00:20:15Number one.
00:20:16Stance.
00:20:17Move the feet apart.
00:20:21Bend this knee.
00:20:23Yep.
00:20:24Then move this foot forward.
00:20:26Good.
00:20:27Okay?
00:20:28Now, hands up.
00:20:30Protect the face.
00:20:32Okay.
00:20:33Now,
00:20:34like this.
00:20:36Oh, God.
00:20:36I'm sorry.
00:20:41Not really good at this.
00:20:45We're just getting started.
00:20:46Um,
00:20:48maybe we should just focus on business.
00:20:53Rule number one.
00:20:55Stance.
00:20:57Right?
00:20:58All right.
00:21:05Yeah.
00:21:05All right.
00:21:11Yeah.
00:21:20Okay.
00:21:21every 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 are 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
00:21:57you just like watching me

00:22:17no this is too much
00:22:25it should cover the whole thing

00:22:29I think that's literally
00:22:34the nicest thing a male has ever done for me
00:22:35what's the catch

00:22:57then
00:22:57no one's gonna find out
00:22:59oh really
00:22:59because your little chef seems to be quite the talk of the town
00:23:02it's under control
00:23:03is it
00:23:04it seems like you're letting your feelings control your
00:23:10I said it's handled

00:25:30And remember the Crystal Jack?
00:25:32I can still feel it running down my back just thinking about it.
00:25:36We even used to drink some of it.
00:25:39Anyway, we have business to discuss.
00:25:41You'll never believe what Hannah said about 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.
00:25:53You do bore me.
00:25:54Darling, the adults have business to discuss.
00:25:58Why don't you go back to like chopping or whatever it is that you do?
00:26:03So basically, you know the company way that we have our investments holding in?
00:26:06I had a business meeting with Hannah today, and she has basically advised me to say that
00:26:11our investments are not making any profit.
00:26:13The company itself isn't actually doing all too well.
00:26:15So my proposal for next year would be basically...
00:26:17Quite the whirlwind romance you've got there.
00:26:36What's the catch?
00:26:40There's always a catch.
00:26:41Excuse me.
00:26:42Rebecca Chen.
00:26:44Social pages.
00:26:45Two days from first meeting to marriage.
00:26:49This must be some kind of record.
00:26:52Though lately I've been more interested in business deals.
00:26:56Hmm.
00:26:56What would you say?
00:26:57Love at first sight, or something more contractual?
00:27:04You know, you should really write romance novels.
00:27:06Seems you have quite the imagination.
00:27:13We'll talk again soon, Mrs. Thorne.
00:27:15I have a feeling there's quite a story here.
00:27:17Oh, the Morrison Foundation dinners tonight.
00:27:29Oh, great.
00:27:30Another dinner.
00:27:31It's important.
00:27:32They're all important.
00:27:33It's a part of the deal.
00:27:36They're all a part of the deal.
00:27:38You knew what you were signing up for.
00:27:41Did I?
00:27:41Did I?
00:27:41At least Vivian will be there.
00:27:46To talk deals and acquisitions and mergers.
00:27:52Okay, whatever.
00:28:04Nice.
00:28:06Real mature.
00:28:09No, don't.
00:28:10Fuck.
00:28:14Okay.
00:28:15Okay, fine.
00:28:16You want to go?
00:28:17Nope.
00:28:20No, no, babe.
00:28:25Okay, can we?
00:28:26No.
00:28:27Yeah?
00:28:27Yeah?
00:28:28No, no, no, no.
00:28:28No, no, no, no.
00:28:30Let go.
00:28:31No.
00:28:31No.
00:28:32No.
00:28:32No.
00:28:33No.
00:28:34Ow.
00:28:36Oh.
00:28:37Oh.
00:28:38Oh.
00:28:38Yeah.
00:29:06Yeah.
00:29:06So, Jack's inheritance is all set, but he still hasn't signed the papers to commit the
00:29:17proceeds to the Morrison deal.
00:29:19That's a problem.
00:29:21Hmm.
00:29:22It's the girl, isn't it?
00:29:23The waitress.
00:29:25You and I both know she's been a problem from the start.
00:29:27And I thought you had everything under control.
00:29:29Oh, I've done my part.
00:29:30That's under way.
00:29:33And I thought you'd have your part under control.
00:29:37I have everything under control.
00:29:40Oh, really?
00:29:40Because it doesn't seem like it, Vivian.
00:29:42You know, maybe I overestimated your sway over, Jack.
00:29:45You haven't overestimated anything.
00:29:48I've just begun.
00:29:49I've got it.
00:30:06Funny how you can always count on the help to answer the door.
00:30:10I live here.
00:30:12Of course you do.
00:30:14Okay, thanks.
00:30:15Jack, darling, should we proceed to the study?
00:30:20We need to discuss the Morrison deal.
00:30:23Yeah.
00:30:24Yeah.
00:30:28Oh, we need to discuss the Morrison deal.
00:30:35Vivian?
00:30:36Remember Tokyo?
00:30:40That sake bar?
00:30:42I'm married.
00:30:45Are you now?
00:30:47I hadn't noticed.
00:30:49Uh-huh.
00:30:50You know that feeling when you leave the house
00:30:54and you just feel like you've forgotten something?
00:30:58I forgot something.
00:31:10Maybe you can...
00:31:12help me figure it out?
00:31:17Coffee?
00:31:20Oh, no thank you.
00:31:22Jack and I have much to catch up on.
00:31:25Oh.
00:31:26And Jack doesn't drink coffee.
00:31:28Do you, Jack?
00:31:29Actually, I've taken it up recently.
00:31:31Hmm.
00:31:32I guess before me, Jack never really had coffee how he liked it.
00:31:35And he just absolutely laps up
00:31:38every drop of my coffee.
00:31:44Isn't that right?
00:31:46Lily makes a great cup of coffee.
00:31:50Hmm.
00:31:53So.
00:31:56How's Vivian?
00:31:58Focus on your form.
00:32:00You know.
00:32:01I was just wondering.
00:32:02How long the two of you...
00:32:04Ancient history.
00:32:06That's not what I heard.
00:32:07From who?
00:32:09Around.
00:32:11Tokyo gets brought up a lot.
00:32:13You've been talking to Warren.
00:32:15You've been talking to Vivian.
00:32:18That's business.
00:32:20Everything is business with you, isn't it?
00:32:22But you know what?
00:32:28What's this?
00:32:31Some pretty big business
00:32:32that you haven't been sharing with me.
00:32:36I think Vivian wants some of it, too.
00:32:39But you know what?
00:32:42Maybe you should just keep your business to yourself.
00:32:44It's sad.
00:32:48Watch your stance.
00:32:50I don't want to be lied to.
00:32:56I'm not lying, Lily.
00:33:00Don't break my heart.
00:33:02Look.
00:33:08I'm not lying.
00:33:08I don't want to be lied to me.
00:33:12Huh.
00:33:12Whoo?
00:33:13também.
00:33:13Yeah.
00:33:13bud.
00:33:16Yeah.
00:33:16What?
00:33:17I don't want to be angry.
00:33:19I don't want to be ROB.
00:33:19Yeah, I'm not.
00:33:20Yeah, I'm just along.
00:33:20I mean, you have to be like,
00:33:22Please act like you know me. There's someone following me.
00:33:43Oh my god, are you okay? Who's following you? That weirdo?
00:33:52Is he gone? I think he's gone.
00:33:59You sure?
00:34:06Like that?
00:34:13I think your technique could use some more.
00:34:19They got the dota rides.
00:34:24You sure that wasn't me?
00:34:26What?
00:34:33What?
00:34:40Of course. And I think the real challenge is market penetration and emerging economies.
00:34:55I'm sure Jack's put you up to speed on all of this.
00:35:00Um, actually I...
00:35:02Tell me, what's your take on blockchain integration?
00:35:05Um, I think...
00:35:09Oh, no comment. How surprising.
00:35:12Excuse me.
00:35:13Oh, great thinking, Lily. All of our drinks could use with a refill.
00:35:17Uh huh.
00:35:18Love you.
00:35:19Love you.
00:35:20Love you.
00:35:21Love you.
00:35:22Love you.
00:35:23But this thing isn't gonna last forever, Jack.
00:35:27I don't know.
00:35:28I mean, what choice do you have?
00:35:29Clock's ticking, buddy.
00:35:30Unless you want to lose it, Jack.
00:35:31I don't know.
00:35:32I mean, what choice do you have?
00:35:33Clock's ticking, buddy.
00:35:34Unless you want to lose this deal forever.
00:35:35Lunch?
00:35:36I love you.
00:35:48But this thing isn't going to last forever, Jack.
00:35:52I don't know.
00:35:54I mean, what choice do you have?
00:35:56Clock's ticking, buddy.
00:35:58Unless you want to lose this deal forever.
00:36:02Lunch?
00:36:04I was just on my way out.
00:36:10Think about it, Jack.
00:36:20What was that about?
00:36:22Nothing. Just business.
00:36:24Just business. Of course.
00:36:26Lily, wait.
00:36:28What do you want, Jack?
00:36:34I'm taking you on a holiday.
00:36:40What? You have time for that?
00:36:42I'm taking you on a holiday.
00:36:44What? You have time for that?
00:36:46A lot of time.
00:36:48Just us?
00:36:50I know what I want.
00:36:52I know what I want.
00:36:54I know what I want.
00:36:56Oh, what about, um...
00:36:58What about Warren and the deal?
00:37:00I can wait.
00:37:02There she is.
00:37:04There she is.
00:37:06What?
00:37:08That smile.
00:37:09That smile.
00:37:10It's the one you had when I first laid ass on you.
00:37:12I'll never forget it.
00:37:14You know that I don't just, um...
00:37:16I serve that dish to anyone, right?
00:37:18Really?
00:37:20Mm-hmm.
00:37:21Mm-hmm.
00:37:22I'm so sorry to interrupt, Mr. Thorne.
00:37:24I've been told to Relay
00:37:25that there's a problem back at the office.
00:37:27Timeline on the deal has moved up.
00:37:28Safe.
00:37:30Would you like me to cancel the trip, sir?
00:37:32No.
00:37:33No.
00:37:34No.
00:37:35No.
00:37:36No.
00:37:37No.
00:37:38No.
00:37:39No.
00:37:40No.
00:37:41No.
00:37:42No.
00:37:43No.
00:37:44No.
00:37:45No.
00:37:46No.
00:37:47No.
00:37:48No.
00:37:49No.
00:37:50Cuz you'll cancel the trip, sir?
00:37:53Yeah.
00:37:54No.
00:37:55No good.
00:37:57Who sent the message?
00:37:59Veehan Chase.
00:38:01Felipe.
00:38:04Okay, I'm sorry.
00:38:05Don't.
00:38:06Please.
00:38:07It's just business.
00:38:08It's business, yeah.
00:38:09I get it.
00:38:19Well, yeah, I shouldn't...
00:38:21Just shut up and taste this.
00:38:33Mmm.
00:38:34It's a taste of...
00:38:35Incredible?
00:38:36Yeah.
00:38:36Yeah, I know.
00:38:38Mmm.
00:38:42Jack?
00:38:43Mm-hmm?
00:38:45Do you want more?
00:38:47Um, after this one.
00:38:48No.
00:38:49Uh-huh.
00:38:50At the food.
00:38:52Jack.
00:38:55Talking about us.
00:39:02How long are we going to keep on doing this?
00:39:17Oh!
00:39:18Oh, my God.
00:39:19What was that?
00:39:29Any enemies?
00:39:31Business rivals?
00:39:33No one comes to mind.
00:39:36Security cameras?
00:39:39Being installed as we speak.
00:39:40Mrs. Thorne?
00:39:41Mrs. Thorne?
00:39:49Mrs. Thorne?
00:39:52Sorry.
00:39:55Thought I saw...
00:39:56I'm worried.
00:40:01You okay?
00:40:02Yeah.
00:40:02Yeah.
00:40:14Yeah.
00:40:15Mm-hmm.
00:40:16This is so insane.
00:40:21It's probably just kids.
00:40:22Kids?
00:40:23Seriously?
00:40:24Seriously.
00:40:25Can you keep your voice down?
00:40:27Oh, sorry.
00:40:30What are you afraid that someone's going to hear about our perfect marriage?
00:40:34What are you hiding from me?
00:40:42Hey.
00:40:43Hey.
00:40:46Hey.
00:40:46Hey, you know that secret room that you didn't want me to find?
00:40:52I found it.
00:40:54I found it.
00:40:57Yeah?
00:41:02Hey, at least it's honest.
00:41:04Do you want a suit?
00:41:11Surely.
00:41:11Surely.
00:41:11Surely.
00:41:34Most people run.
00:41:42I'm not most people.
00:41:47So.
00:41:50This is what you're into?
00:41:52Among other things.
00:41:54And all of those...
00:41:57Specific requirements.
00:42:00We're meant to scare you off.
00:42:02I don't scare you so.
00:42:04I'm starting to get that.
00:42:11Show me.
00:42:13You sure?
00:42:15Are you?
00:42:34Okay.
00:42:34I don't know.
00:42:56So.
00:42:56Sir, Miss Chase is here. She says it's urgent.
00:43:08Jack, the team is flying to Tokyo and they need you there.
00:43:11Final deal points.
00:43:12Jess leaving in 30.
00:43:13I packed your bag and I'll be waiting downstairs.
00:43:18Lily, wait.
00:43:21Just go.
00:43:26Lily, I can explain.
00:43:57Can you?
00:44:01Guess the business can't wait.
00:44:12This whole thing is...
00:44:14Let me get this straight.
00:44:16You sleep with him and then you find a note from his ex.
00:44:19It's complicated.
00:44:21When isn't it with you?
00:44:22Look, maybe it's time to admit this whole thing is just a little...
00:44:27What? A mistake?
00:44:28That you were right?
00:44:30Huh? Is that what you want to hear?
00:44:32No, I want you to be happy.
00:44:35And are you?
00:44:36I don't know what I am anymore.
00:44:40I mean, he paid for mom's operation, so that's cool, but I...
00:44:43I know.
00:44:44And the worst part is I think I might actually be falling for...
00:44:46Lily?
00:44:54Stand back.
00:44:55What?
00:44:55Stand back, Megan.
00:44:56Come on, let's go.
00:45:19What was that?
00:45:22Lessons with Jack.
00:45:24Jack taught you that?
00:45:26Yeah.
00:45:27Yeah.
00:45:28Dude's getting better by a minute.
00:45:30I know.
00:45:31Oh, man.
00:45:34You okay?
00:45:36Yeah.
00:45:38God, things are supposed to be so simple.
00:45:42Now what?
00:45:43Oh.
00:45:44I don't even know what's real anymore.
00:45:45Oh, honey.
00:45:48I'm kidding.
00:45:48I don't know.
00:45:50He always keeps the ledger on his desk.
00:46:18Lauren, I've known you since college.
00:46:33How could you?
00:46:3911 months.
00:46:41Almost a year.
00:46:44I barely knew that anymore.
00:46:46No way, I need to tell you something.
00:46:59I'm all ears.
00:47:01It's about the deal.
00:47:03It's about Warren, Vivian.
00:47:05Well, if it isn't the happy couple.
00:47:08Oh, great.
00:47:10The press.
00:47:10These aren't real.
00:47:22Real?
00:47:23Oh, my sisters say they are very real.
00:47:25Story runs in 48 hours.
00:47:28Only this is what I was just about to tell you.
00:47:30I've been set up.
00:47:33Care to comment, Mrs. Thorne?
00:47:35You know, it's funny.
00:47:38I...
00:47:38For a minute, I really believed.
00:47:42Louie, wait.
00:47:45They're not real.
00:47:48Take a talk, Mr. Thorne.
00:47:49Louie, wait.
00:48:03They're not real.
00:48:05You have to believe me.
00:48:06Look, I believed you when you said that this was just a business deal.
00:48:10Like, I believed you when you said that Vivian was just a colleague.
00:48:15Look, I believe that last night actually meant something.
00:48:18It did.
00:48:20Louie, what happened between us was...
00:48:21The transaction.
00:48:24That's all any of this ever was.
00:48:26That's not true.
00:48:28And you know it.
00:48:29Do I?
00:48:32Because from where I'm standing,
00:48:34you got everything that you wanted.
00:48:36You got a wife when you needed one.
00:48:38And a body when you wanted one.
00:48:40Louie, that's not it.
00:48:41Tell me I'm wrong.
00:48:43Tell me that there's not something more going on here.
00:48:45With the business deal.
00:48:47And your inheritance.
00:48:48Anything more to explain.
00:48:57That's what I thought.
00:49:02You're a terrible person.
00:49:05If you leave now, you violate the contract.
00:49:08You get nothing.
00:49:10I don't care.
00:49:11I never cared about any of that.
00:49:34Hands up.
00:49:35Protect the face.
00:49:37No, don't.
00:49:40Go?
00:49:42Nope.
00:49:51Warren?
00:49:52Finally, look.
00:49:53About the Morrison deal.
00:49:55It's off.
00:49:56What do you mean it's off?
00:49:57All of it.
00:49:59The deal.
00:50:00The inheritance.
00:50:01I don't want any of it.
00:50:02Have you lost your freaking mind?
00:50:04I mean, everything that we've worked for.
00:50:06Actually,
00:50:07I think I've found it.
00:50:11I don't want any other.
00:50:34cottor, you're a pretty relative.
00:50:35I don't want any of it.
00:50:36You can't just hide here forever
00:50:45Watch me
00:50:46Hey
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?
00:51:06She played, did she?
00:51:13If that's Jack
00:51:14I'm sure that's just my oxygenarian neighbor who's a total drama queen
00:51:18Watch
00:51:19Gladys
00:51:21Gladys, is that you?
00:51:25Do you need help with your phone?
00:51:33Sir
00:51:34Coffee
00:51:35I did some digging around like you asked, sir
00:51:39You might want to see this
00:51:41What am I looking at here?
00:51:47Wire transfers, shell companies
00:51:49All leading back to Mr. Block
00:51:52More
00:51:53I knew it
00:51:55You might want to see these too, sir
00:51:57They'll illuminate things even more
00:51:58Son of a bitch
00:52:04He's trying to steal the inheritance
00:52:06He sure is
00:52:07All through a series of cleverly placed shell companies
00:52:11Although I suspect Ms. Chase's interests are not purely financial
00:52:17Sir
00:52:29They're threatening Lily and her sister
00:52:31Then perhaps it's time we stop playing their game
00:52:34Give me everything you can about Warren
00:52:36Every meeting, every call
00:52:38I'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
00:52:44I'm going back, Megan
00:52:59Jane
00:53:01What about the inheritance?
00:53:07Fun
00:53:08Fun
00:53:09Fun

00:53:27Fun
00:53:27I can get us out of this.
00:53:52Oh, I can do this.
00:53:53Oh, I can do this.
00:53:54Your little cookie's on her way over to save her sister as we speak.
00:54:00And I wouldn't put money on how well that's going to go.
00:54:03If anything happens to her, that's up to you.
00:54:07Sign the papers.
00:54:10And this all goes away.
00:54:13Like those photos of you and me from that reporter suddenly went away.
00:54:20Deep fakes really do hurt everyone involved.
00:54:23Don't they?
00:54:24I always knew you were soft.
00:54:26But this?
00:54:28Throwing away a billion dollar inheritance for some chef.
00:54:31He's not throwing it away.
00:54:33He's giving it to us.
00:54:36All we need is a signature, Jack.
00:54:40You care too much, Jackie boy.
00:54:43Always have.
00:54:43I think we might need to send a little message.
00:54:51Wait.
00:54:52Let me go, you psycho.
00:55:13Let me go.
00:55:14Remember your training.
00:55:21Protect your face.
00:55:26Megan!
00:55:27Lenny!
00:55:31Welcome to the party, sweetheart.
00:55:34Come on.
00:55:34Come 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?
00:55:49Lenny!
00:55:50I'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.
00:56:00But, sir, they're at least 20 minutes out.
00:56:02She doesn't have 20 minutes.
00:56:03No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:56:12Lauren, she's there.
00:56:14Louie's there.
00:56:19Hold on, Louie.
00:56:20Hold on.
00:56:21Hold on.
00:56:24Hold on.
00:56:25Leave her alone.
00:56:35Shut up.
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.
00:56:52Oh, I guess it is real love, huh?
00:57:13That's for my sister.
00:57:15You son of a bitch.
00:57:16You son of a bitch.
00:57:19You.
00:57:22Louie.
00:57:23Not everything.
00:57:25The photos.
00:57:26Vivian.
00:57:27Now?
00:57:28Seriously?
00:57:29I love you.
00:57:31Not for any inheritance.
00:57:34Not for any deal.
00:57:35Just you.
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?
00:58:08This isn't...
00:58:09Possible.
00:58:10And I wouldn't put money on how well that's going to 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't.
00:58:27Yes, they can.
00:58:28And you two are under arrest.
00:58:32No.
00:58:33You'll regret this, Jack.
00:58:34The inheritance, they're nothing.
00:58:36Compared to what I almost lost.
00:58:38You could have had it all, Jack.
00:58:39I do.
00:58:49Yes, thank you.
00:58:51Thanks.
00:58:52Now that's the story.
00:59:01You're here to twist the knife?
00:59:03Actually, I'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.
00:59:14So, no scandal piece?
00:59:17Oh.
00:59:18There's definitely a scandal.
00:59:20But not the one they wanted me to bite on.
00:59:25That'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.
00:59:51We'll be about the inheritance.
00:59:52I really think that I care about any of that now.
00:59:59Just take me home.
01:00:00Yes, dear.
01:00:12Sun'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.
01:00:28Ow.
01:00:33Excuse 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.
01:00:54Jack Thorne announced plans.
01:00:56In 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.
01:01:07I'm surprised.
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.
01:01:22guard.
01:01:23Oh, my God.
01:01:30I don't know.
01:01:31I don't know.
01:01:39Perfect, Julie and Danny.
01:01:40Keep it thin, okay?
01:01:41Just like that.
01:01:57This looks good on you.
01:02:00And who said there's no such thing as a happily ever after?
01:02:04Suckers.
01:02:05Can I get you your usual, sir?
01:02:08Depends.
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.
01:02:29Voila.
01:02:35And the best chef in town.
01:02:38You're only saying that because you're contractually obligated.
01:02:42I 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,
01:03:06you have to eat everything I cook.
01:03:09Done.
01:03:11Second,
01:03:11no 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
01:03:42not one.
01:03:52For better or worse.
01:03:55For real this time.
01:03:58You make his the bride.
01:03:59It's all.
01:04:00Oh, yeah.
01:04:15So,
01:04:15are you ready for your honeymoon?
01:04:19What are you...
01:04:20Lauren, tell me back.
01:04:24Mrs. Thorne,
01:04:31are you trying to negotiate
01:04:31new 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
01:04:42about business anymore.
01:04:45How about you just shut up
01:04:47and kiss your wife?
01:04:48you're so passionate.
01:04:58you're so gentle.
01:05:01No?
01:05:02No?
01:05:03No?
01:05:04No.
01:05:05No.
01:05:05No?
01:05:06No?
01:05:06No?
01:05:08No.
01:05:11No?
01:05:12No?
01:05:12No, no.
