00:00:00Lights!
00:00:02Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Heart Disease Foundation's charity auction.
00:00:08Win a date with the stunning Emma Davis and support a good cause.
00:00:12I hope this is worth it. I need the cash for Gwen's hospital bills.
00:00:16The bidding starts at $5,000.
00:00:19Get that date. Losing is not an option.
00:00:25You got it, boss.
00:00:30$10,000. $15,000.
00:00:32I feel like a piece of meat on a rack.
00:00:36$25,000.
00:00:37I'll show you a good time, baby.
00:00:43Folks, we've got a staggering $25,000.
00:00:47Going once, going twice.
00:00:51$50,000.
00:00:51$50,000.
00:01:00Damn, he's sexy.
00:01:04Wait, he kind of looks familiar.
00:01:07But from where?
00:01:08$50,000? That's unheard of.
00:01:11$60,000.
00:01:13Shit.
00:01:14$75,000.
00:01:16$90,000!
00:01:19Going once?
00:01:21Going twice?
00:01:22Please, please come to my rescue.
00:01:29Going once?
00:01:31Going twice?
00:01:32$500,000.
00:01:37Sold to Bitter69!
00:01:47Dina?
00:01:49Right now?
00:01:50No time like the present.
00:01:55Typical Jake.
00:01:58What do you get, boss?
00:01:59You useless idiot!
00:02:02You're fired.
00:02:06So was that your first choice, or were the best of the worst?
00:02:11The lesser of two evils, for sure.
00:02:15Wow.
00:02:16Here I was hoping you'd say I was your hero.
00:02:18Well, you did manage to save me from the creep-o.
00:02:32What do you say will you finish us off with a nightcap in my place?
00:02:36A one-night stand?
00:02:37Am I that kind of woman?
00:02:40I'm always working or taking care of my sister.
00:02:44Maybe I should let loose for once.
00:02:46Lead the way, hero.
00:03:00You move fast.
00:03:01Throne.
00:03:02Yes.
00:03:23Throne.
00:03:23Throne.
00:03:25I have to go.
00:03:51You gotta be kidding me.
00:03:55Sorry I interrupted your date.
00:04:03I only went for you.
00:04:05Besides, it was paid.
00:04:07Total escort vibes.
00:04:08Whatever.
00:04:09This is the first guy you've gone home with in years.
00:04:14Time to clear up those cobwebs, Em.
00:04:17Miss Davis.
00:04:19So sorry to interrupt, but your payment is due next week?
00:04:22Yes.
00:04:23I just started a new job, so I will have HR give me an advance, promise.
00:04:32I hate that you're under all this stress because of me.
00:04:34It's not your fault.
00:04:36Harrison is the one who cleaned out my savings and stole our inheritance.
00:04:41I hope he rots in hell.
00:04:43Me too.
00:04:44Since when are you so passionate about curing heart disease?
00:04:49I might have donated more than I expected to.
00:04:52But the date I want, straight down, set, she took off running when things got hot.
00:05:00Well, yeah, the playboy, Jake Morrison, finally losing your touch.
00:05:04Please.
00:05:05My touch is fine.
00:05:07I wish she hadn't run.
00:05:10I can't stop thinking about her.
00:05:13You're needed in the boardroom.
00:05:14Of course I am.
00:05:19I can't stop thinking about her.
00:05:25Come on, Pete.
00:05:27It's not that bad.
00:05:29This is the third scandal of the month, Jake.
00:05:36Count them.
00:05:37Three.
00:05:38And the month's not even over yet.
00:05:40How are we supposed to take this commitment-focused dating app public when you're acting like
00:05:47some frap boy gigolo on spring break in Fort Lauderdale, Florida?
00:05:52You guys are overreacting.
00:05:56Oh, are we?
00:05:59We're America's number one dating app, Jake.
00:06:02We're about commitment.
00:06:03Wham-bam.
00:06:04Thank you, ma'am.
00:06:05Jake, every time your face gets plastered on some tabloid,
00:06:09our stocks are going to drop.
00:06:14You have to step down as CEO.
00:06:16Excuse me?
00:06:18I've been here since my father built this thing.
00:06:20I'm not going to just walk away.
00:06:22Oh, no, Jake.
00:06:24You have to step down, or the board is going to vote you out.
00:06:29Still upset that that chose me to take the reins instead of you.
00:06:32Jake, if you cared about this company, you would not tarnish your father's legacy.
00:06:39For some lay.
00:06:41I'll go celibate.
00:06:43I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:06:49You're what?
00:06:51You heard me.
00:06:53No woman.
00:06:56No dating.
00:06:57No scandals.
00:06:59I'll prove that I'm the right man to lead this company.
00:07:02Ooh.
00:07:03Okay, wait a minute.
00:07:04You, Jake Morrison, celibate?
00:07:10This I'd love to see.
00:07:12Let's set up a timeline here.
00:07:14Let's say 40 full days, complete celibacy.
00:07:18No problem.
00:07:20All right, wait, wait.
00:07:21But if you fail, you will accompany half a billion dollars, and I take over CEO.
00:07:27After your voluntary resignation, you got a deal.
00:07:32Welcome to Morrison Enterprises, Ms. Davis.
00:07:35We're counting on you to keep our CEO in top form before the IPO.
00:07:39The CEO?
00:07:40What do you mean?
00:07:41He's got a reputation.
00:07:44You've got to keep him from tanking the company before it goes public.
00:07:49Don't worry.
00:07:50I won't let you down.
00:07:52Well, okay.
00:07:53Well, then I guess the bet is on.
00:07:5640 days, no women, no dating, no scandals.
00:08:00And if you fail, Clyde here takes over as CEO.
00:08:05I won't fail.
00:08:07Ah, our new chief of staff?
00:08:10You.
00:08:11You.
00:08:12Now I know why he looks so damn familiar.
00:08:16He's that womanizing CEO in all the tabloids.
00:08:19I mean, I'm Emma Davis, your new chief of staff.
00:08:25Welcome to Morrison Enterprises.
00:08:29So, about the other night, maybe this is fate's way of giving us a second chance.
00:08:54This company has a very clear no dating policy.
00:08:58And as your boss, I expect you to follow it.
00:09:01No, it doesn't.
00:09:03I read the employee handbook.
00:09:06But who said anything about dating?
00:09:09I'm talking about unfinished business.
00:09:14This stupid bet.
00:09:16I can't do a thing.
00:09:17You rejected.
00:09:18You rejected me, remember?
00:09:20I have family emergency.
00:09:21But now, you are my main priority.
00:09:27And from the looks of things, we're on the same page.
00:09:33I, I, I, I have a meeting.
00:09:40It's been a sorry nightmare.
00:09:53What did you say?
00:09:57What did you say?
00:09:59Nothing.
00:10:01Which for?
00:10:02Me.
00:10:12See?
00:10:14Fate's thrown us together.
00:10:16I can't and won't happen, Emma.
00:10:19I just set the rules, remember?
00:10:22Is he playing hard to get?
00:10:24Maybe he likes his women a bit more bold.
00:10:28Since when does Mr. Jake Morrison play by the rules?
00:10:37We're in here alone.
00:10:40Nobody's gonna find out.
00:10:45Emma.
00:10:50I already told you.
00:10:51I don't mix business with pleasure.
00:10:54Except that's literally what you're in the news for doing.
00:11:00Is it?
00:11:05Is it me?
00:11:10Looks like you're already losing that bet, kid.
00:11:12Let me get this straight.
00:11:22Your new boss, who you have to spend every day with, is the same billionaire hottie who bid on you at the charity auction?
00:11:31One and the same.
00:11:32That's crazy.
00:11:35The universe is literally handing you a ridiculously hot billionaire on a silver platter.
00:11:41No.
00:11:41Except he's not interested.
00:11:44I think he just wanted to tax right off, so.
00:11:46Since when have you been one to back down from a challenge?
00:11:53Seducing my boss is not some challenge, Gwen.
00:11:56But what a sweet, fun challenge it would be.
00:12:00You're supposed to be on my side.
00:12:02I am.
00:12:03I'm on the side that my super smart, super funny, and super hot sister deserves to have some fun.
00:12:11Super billionaire.
00:12:13You know what?
00:12:14I am glad you're feeling better.
00:12:17I'm serious.
00:12:18Don't let that asshole Harrison ruin this for you, Em.
00:12:21You're allowed to want things.
00:12:24Fine.
00:12:26Initiate phase one of operation.
00:12:29Seduce my boss.
00:12:37I've never seen your face before, first time.
00:12:43And I've missed you.
00:12:47Why don't we get out of here?
00:12:48I can do the trick that you like.
00:12:50How could I forget?
00:12:56Sorry, sweetheart.
00:12:58Not tonight.
00:13:13I'm not.
00:13:15I'm Emma.
00:13:17Stop.
00:13:20Right.
00:13:22Time to go.
00:13:23Okay.
00:13:26You're waiting too long as next to her.
00:13:31You're no fun.
00:13:32You know that?
00:13:33You will thank me when you wake up.
00:13:35You are trying to get me alone.
00:13:40Emma.
00:13:40Shh.
00:13:42Shh.
00:13:43I won't tell.
00:14:00You think of me as some charity case, don't you?
00:14:05No.
00:14:06No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:14:09Why would you bet on me?
00:14:11Yeah, and if you didn't even find me attractive.
00:14:14That's not it.
00:14:15Fine.
00:14:16Leave me alone.
00:14:18I know where I live.
00:14:24I know.
00:14:28Get out.
00:14:29Why am I the one person Jake Morrison won't be?
00:14:46Why am I humiliating myself for him?
00:14:47Oh.
00:14:49Oh.
00:14:49Oh.
00:14:49Oh.
00:14:49Oh.
00:14:50Oh.
00:14:50Oh.
00:14:51Oh.
00:14:51Oh.
00:14:51Oh.
00:14:51Oh.
00:14:52Oh.
00:14:52Oh.
00:14:53Oh.
00:14:53Oh.
00:14:53Oh.
00:14:54Oh.
00:14:54Oh.
00:14:55Oh.
00:14:55Oh.
00:14:55Oh.
00:14:56Oh.
00:14:56Oh.
00:14:57Oh.
00:14:57Oh.
00:14:58Oh.
00:14:59Oh.
00:14:59Oh.
00:15:00Oh.
00:15:00Oh.
00:15:00Oh.
00:15:19Oh.
00:15:19Okay, okay, don't let him get in your head.
00:15:26Do not let him win.
00:15:32Shit.
00:15:37And I guess now I just have to deal with it all on my own.
00:15:42I never thought Jake would turn his back on me.
00:15:46And our baby.
00:15:49Baby?
00:15:54Moon, this is a disaster.
00:15:57You knocked up your old secretary.
00:16:00And we're just a few weeks from going public.
00:16:02Emma, you fix this now.
00:16:07Cassidy's lying.
00:16:09I haven't touched her in years.
00:16:11If what you say is true.
00:16:13It's true.
00:16:14I know better than knock anyone out.
00:16:17Then we'll prove it.
00:16:19Oh, hey, Jake.
00:16:24Whatever game you're playing, I'm not interested.
00:16:27Oh, you will be.
00:16:29Eventually.
00:16:30You'll be begging me not to bleed your company dry.
00:16:36Tick tock, Jakey.
00:16:37Hello.
00:16:44Voila.
00:16:46I had to swing by for work.
00:16:49Thought I'd surprise you.
00:16:50Something about a certain hot billionaire?
00:16:53Nope.
00:16:55Operation Seduce My Boss is done.
00:16:57Finished.
00:16:58In you go.
00:16:59Guys like Jake love a challenge.
00:17:03Make him chase you.
00:17:05Remember, you're the prize.
00:17:07I cashed in a favor with a doctor friend to get Cassidy's file.
00:17:17She is not, nor has she ever been, pregnant.
00:17:21Jake is innocent.
00:17:23Well, thank you, Emma, for your quick resolution.
00:17:26We'll issue a statement at once.
00:17:27If I ever said I saw a more beautiful woman, I'd be lying.
00:17:32Yeah.
00:17:34Here.
00:17:36You've earned this.
00:17:38I've never seen a PR nightmare handled so well so fast.
00:17:40I can learn a thing or two from you.
00:17:45Just doing my job.
00:17:49Another guy in need of your exceptional PR skills?
00:17:52Excuse me?
00:17:54Emma's excellent at her job, but unfortunately got her occupied for the next few months.
00:17:59I didn't realize you two were...
00:18:01We're not.
00:18:02We are.
00:18:05If you'll excuse me.
00:18:10Jealous much?
00:18:13I'm just trying to protect your professional reputation.
00:18:16Oh, is that so?
00:18:18I was just taking a page out of the Jake Morrison handbook.
00:18:22I've turned you a leaf.
00:18:24I've noticed the Jake Morrison I heard about had charm, charisma, stamina.
00:18:32This Jake Morrison.
00:18:34Kind of a four.
00:18:37I, uh...
00:18:40Emma?
00:18:50Nothing.
00:18:50Just a wrong number.
00:18:52Doesn't look like nothing.
00:18:56Jake?
00:18:58Will you stay with me tonight?
00:19:01I can't resist her if I spend the night.
00:19:05This stupid bet.
00:19:06That's not a good idea.
00:19:07I don't mean like that.
00:19:11I just thought it would give us a chance to work on the IPO presentation.
00:19:15And hopefully keep Harrison away.
00:19:18Something spooking her.
00:19:20Okay.
00:19:21I'll come by.
00:19:22But I can't say all night.
00:19:24Optics, you know?
00:19:25I get it.
00:19:29Already done?
00:19:29Alexa, can we finish at the same time?
00:19:33Brilliant at PR and presentation, huh?
00:19:36And now I can focus on keeping you on the straight and narrow.
00:19:40I just hope this IPO goes well.
00:19:45For my dad's sake.
00:19:46Your dad?
00:19:51He started this company when my mom died.
00:19:55She was a soulmate, and he warned the whole world to discover the type of love he had.
00:20:00How romantic.
00:20:01Looks like the apple fell pretty far from the tree, huh?
00:20:06In one ways than one.
00:20:08Jake, I was kidding.
00:20:10It's late.
00:20:11How'd you go?
00:20:13There's room on the couch.
00:20:14You can stay.
00:20:16I gotta go.
00:20:18I'll see you at the office, huh?
00:20:28Shit.
00:20:28Great.
00:20:31Guess I'm stuck here.
00:20:44Oh!
00:20:45Ooh!
00:20:45Hi!
00:20:46Jake, what the hell?
00:20:48I'm sorry.
00:20:48I'm sorry.
00:20:49I thought you left.
00:20:51I did.
00:20:52But the paps are on the hunt.
00:20:54So it looks like you're your wish, princess.
00:20:55I'm sleeping over.
00:20:56He came back for me.
00:20:59To hell with playing hard to get.
00:21:00Operation Seduce Boss is back on.
00:21:05So you got blankets or...
00:21:08Or...
00:21:09You could...
00:21:13Sleep with me.
00:21:15We can't, Emma.
00:21:19Why not?
00:21:21No one would know.
00:21:22I'm pretty sure the paps outside would know.
00:21:24You're in here.
00:21:25So they're already assuming that you're doing it.
00:21:27So why not just do it?
00:21:29Of course, this perfectly sexy, wildly intelligent, utterly gorgeous woman comes along.
00:21:35Practically throwing herself at me when I can't do a fucking thing.
00:21:38I'll take...
00:21:39I'll take the couch.
00:21:40I'll...
00:21:40I'll...
00:21:40I'll take...
00:21:41I'll take the couch.
00:21:43You're lost, Morrison.
00:21:52Thanks.
00:21:54If you want these, you have to pay the Emma tax.
00:21:58Which is what exactly?
00:22:00A goodnight kiss.
00:22:01Thanks for the blankets.
00:22:27Thanks for all that, huh?
00:22:33Goodnight.
00:22:40This woman will be the death of me.
00:22:57What the...
00:23:03It's creeping up on your overnight guests, you think?
00:23:05Only when they're half naked doing sit-ups in my living room.
00:23:08My mistake.
00:23:10Don't stop on my account.
00:23:12I wasn't planning to.
00:23:14So I was thinking that we should interview board members for the mission and vision of the company for the IPO.
00:23:23Huh?
00:23:24What?
00:23:26Oh my god, it's...
00:23:28Okay.
00:23:32That's enough workout for today.
00:23:34I really wasn't trying to...
00:23:36Oh, all good.
00:23:38Let me just explain.
00:23:39I'm just gonna go cool off with a cold shower.
00:23:43Very cold.
00:23:43Well, what do we have here?
00:23:56The CEO and the chief of staff arriving together.
00:24:00A little morning cardio, Jake?
00:24:02You got a wild imagination, Uncle.
00:24:04It wouldn't be the first time you slept with an employee.
00:24:07Only this time, I've got my eye on a bet.
00:24:10What bet?
00:24:11It's nothing.
00:24:13Just some stupid inside joke my uncle won't let die.
00:24:16Nope, that's me.
00:24:17Oh, well.
00:24:19Careful, nephew.
00:24:20Forty days.
00:24:21Awfully long time.
00:24:23Okay, what's going on?
00:24:24Honestly, it's nothing.
00:24:26Nothing.
00:24:26Nothing.
00:24:26Nothing.
00:24:26Nothing.
00:24:32Are you sure?
00:24:37There's nothing there.
00:24:38No one went into your office, and there weren't any suspicious people on any of the hallway cams.
00:24:44It's like that rose just appeared.
00:24:46That's impossible.
00:24:54Okay, thank you anyway.
00:25:00Leaving already?
00:25:02I just need to get home.
00:25:06Come on.
00:25:08Let me take you.
00:25:09Jake, I just need some space.
00:25:11I'll be fine.
00:25:23Miss you.
00:25:25What are you doing here?
00:25:27Can't a guy come to see his girl?
00:25:32I'm not your girl anymore, Harrison.
00:25:34Really?
00:25:36Not even a thank you for the flower.
00:25:47Now, did you?
00:25:49Stay away from me, Harrison.
00:25:51What?
00:25:52What?
00:25:52You have your rich little boy toy teach me a lesson?
00:25:58Newsflash, sweetheart.
00:26:00You...
00:26:00You...
00:26:00You, sweetheart, you don't know how fast I can take everything from you.
00:26:15What's that boy's name?
00:26:16What's that boy's name?
00:26:19Morrison, right?
00:26:21Mr. Big Shot CEO.
00:26:22I wonder how he'd look with a couple of scars.
00:26:25If you even go near him, I swear.
00:26:31I don't want to swear anything.
00:26:32Oh, look at this.
00:26:38You need to leave now.
00:26:40This is so cute, Emma's little white knight.
00:26:44Listen here, rich boy.
00:26:46Even if I leave, Emma will come crawling back.
00:26:50Good girl.
00:26:51Yes.
00:26:52Just as she always does.
00:26:55If you ever come near him again, I'll make sure you're a friend.
00:27:06You don't have what it takes.
00:27:10See you soon, sweetheart.
00:27:22It's okay.
00:27:25It's fine.
00:27:31I didn't want to drag you into this.
00:27:34There's no way in hell I'm going anywhere with that psycho lurk in her.
00:27:37Jake.
00:27:39Let's get you inside, okay?
00:27:42Okay, let's go.
00:27:51Oh my God!
00:27:52Son of a bitch.
00:28:02How did he get in here?
00:28:05Emma, we're calling the cops.
00:28:08No.
00:28:08I've tried that before.
00:28:10It doesn't work.
00:28:11He, he's smart.
00:28:15Well, you can't stay here.
00:28:16I have to.
00:28:18I can't keep running.
00:28:20I can't let him drive me from my home.
00:28:22This isn't about your pride.
00:28:25It's about your safety.
00:28:27Next time, he's not going to wait for you to be at work.
00:28:29I don't have anywhere else to go.
00:28:31You can come with me.
00:28:32Because you spent one night with me, now you want me to move in.
00:28:37Glad to see you still have your sense of humor.
00:28:39But no, not that.
00:28:40I'm not even in San Francisco for a work trip.
00:28:42Why don't you join me?
00:28:43What?
00:28:43I'll give you a few days away.
00:28:48That prick won't find you.
00:28:50And I'll hire a cleaning company to clean this place up.
00:28:53Jake, that still feels like running.
00:28:56Emma, anything can happen on this trip.
00:29:00You know how wild I can get.
00:29:05Your damage control is top notch.
00:29:07It's your job to keep me in line.
00:29:11Fine.
00:29:13I'll join you.
00:29:15Great.
00:29:16I'll make a few calls while you pack it back.
00:29:27Hello.
00:29:27Welcome.
00:29:29Jake Morrison.
00:29:33Oh, I'm so sorry, Mr. Morrison.
00:29:35But we are completely sold out tonight.
00:29:37You two will have to share a room.
00:29:47You said I'd have my own room.
00:29:50It's not that in the world.
00:29:51We've already spent the night together.
00:29:53That's not the same thing.
00:29:54You know it.
00:29:55Trust me.
00:29:56The last thing I want to do is share a bathroom with you
00:29:58and your 10-step skincare routine.
00:30:01Why not?
00:30:02You could learn a thing or two about wrinkle prevention.
00:30:05Oh, please.
00:30:07I glow naturally.
00:30:09Anyways.
00:30:10You should get ready for the dinner meeting with the close continued.
00:30:12How's your sister doing?
00:30:14Oh, she didn't show the fucker.
00:30:15Jesus.
00:30:17Careful.
00:30:20I want someone to, uh, catch you.
00:30:23That's cute.
00:30:28I don't know.
00:30:29I don't know.
00:30:30I don't know.
00:30:30I don't know.
00:30:30I don't know.
00:30:31I don't know.
00:30:31I don't know.
00:30:31I don't know.
00:30:31I don't know.
00:30:32I don't know.
00:30:32I don't know.
00:30:33I don't know.
00:30:34I don't know.
00:30:34I don't know.
00:30:34I don't really know.
00:30:36Nobody's thrilled about this collaboration.
00:30:38We'll be in touch.
00:30:40Sounds good.
00:30:47Well, we should...
00:30:49If you ever need any extra service, call me.
00:30:57Thank you. What was your name?
00:31:00Oh, my God! Babe, he's hitting on you!
00:31:07Jake, what?
00:31:08I know. She's gorgeous. But tonight...
00:31:13On our special...
00:31:15Inter-missary night!
00:31:17I am so sorry. I didn't mean...
00:31:21Jake, stop it. You're causing a scene.
00:31:25A scene! A scene!
00:31:28You're out here collecting numbers like they're discount coupons!
00:31:31And you have that task, you see, I'm-
00:31:35Oh, sorry.
00:31:37Please, enjoy your anniversary.
00:31:48I know.
00:31:58Why'd you do that?
00:32:01To save you from a lifetime of cringy pick-up lines from that guy.
00:32:05Oh, maybe I wanted to have fun.
00:32:08Maybe I wanted to feel attractive and wanted for once.
00:32:15You know you're attractive.
00:32:17To everyone except you, apparently.
00:32:19What'd you just say?
00:32:21What'd you just say?
00:32:22Nothing.
00:32:23Wait.
00:32:24You think I don't want you?
00:32:25It was nothing.
00:32:27I'm going to bed.
00:32:30Rock, paper, scissors for bed.
00:32:34After the stunt you pulled tonight, you're sleeping on the floor.
00:32:38Not happening. Hold out your hands.
00:32:40Okay.
00:32:43Let's be adults and share the bed.
00:32:45But with pillows down the middle.
00:32:48Because that's very adult-like.
00:32:52I'm not sorry for being a cock-blocker.
00:32:57That's fine.
00:32:58That guy smelled like he showered in cologne anyway.
00:33:02What I don't understand is why you did it.
00:33:06I don't know.
00:33:07Probably because you're too good for him.
00:33:15You're too good for me too, Emma.
00:33:21Move in with me.
00:33:23How much did you have to drink tonight?
00:33:29Barely anything.
00:33:31I wasn't the one the waiter was trying to get drunk.
00:33:34Then you must have hit your head.
00:33:35I'm not moving in with you.
00:33:37Why not?
00:33:39Because we're colleagues, not a couple.
00:33:43There's no way you can go back to your place.
00:33:44Not with Harrison lurking around.
00:33:45Jake, I can't.
00:33:47I'm not taking no for an answer.
00:33:49You know how the office gossip is.
00:33:50The board would freak.
00:33:53I would lose my job, actually.
00:33:56We'll cross that bridge when we get there.
00:33:58How do you know you're safe?
00:34:02I'm not picking your boxers up off the bathroom floor.
00:34:06Of course not.
00:34:08That's all my maids for.
00:34:15Night, Jake.
00:34:18Night, Emma.
00:34:20Home sweet home.
00:34:30Come on.
00:34:43Gotcha.
00:34:45Miss Abrams, ex-employees cannot summon the board at their will.
00:34:48Relax, Jake.
00:34:49She reached out to me with some damaging information.
00:34:52I'm the one that called this meeting.
00:34:54Please, Miss Abrams, go ahead.
00:34:58As you can see, Mr. Morrison has been spending a little personal time with one of his employees.
00:35:07His chief of staff.
00:35:09Pictures don't lie, Peter.
00:35:10I can explain.
00:35:12This is just great.
00:35:16The woman we hired to keep you in line is creating yet another scandal.
00:35:20Nephew, looks like you failed your bet.
00:35:23Oh, we should buy her, too.
00:35:25We should go.
00:35:27I was in San Francisco with Miss Davis on business.
00:35:29We had dinner.
00:35:30We had dinner.
00:35:31With a potential client.
00:35:32And we closed the deal.
00:35:34Feel free to call the client to cooperate.
00:35:37Okay.
00:35:38Alright, look.
00:35:39These pictures, they don't prove anything.
00:35:42But you are on thin ice.
00:35:44Thank you, Peter.
00:36:02What is this bet I keep hearing about?
00:36:05It's nothing.
00:36:06It's just board talk.
00:36:08It's not nothing.
00:36:09It's obviously about the company or the IPO or something.
00:36:12Even Cassidy knows.
00:36:14Don't worry about it.
00:36:17How the hell am I supposed to do my job if I don't even know-
00:36:20I said it's nothing, Emma, drop it.
00:36:27So much for trust.
00:36:34Trouble in paradise?
00:36:39Get out of here, Cassidy.
00:36:41Look, I'm sorry about the whole fake pregnancy thing.
00:36:47You just iced me out after I left the company and I just...
00:36:51I just still love you, Jakey.
00:36:55You need to stop.
00:36:57We're done, Cassidy.
00:36:59We've been done.
00:37:00But I...
00:37:01I want you out of my life.
00:37:02Now.
00:37:04This is ridiculous.
00:37:18Just go talk to her.
00:37:20Showtime.
00:37:23Oh my God!
00:37:25Jake!
00:37:27Please!
00:37:28Help!
00:37:29Cassie?
00:37:30Are you okay? What happened?
00:37:33Of course.
00:37:46Left early this morning.
00:37:49I had work to do.
00:37:50Emma.
00:37:51Can we talk?
00:37:52Can't. I'm busy.
00:37:54Your zipper's busted.
00:37:57What?
00:37:59Back zipper.
00:38:01It's busted.
00:38:03Red panties.
00:38:05Bold move.
00:38:08Hi.
00:38:09You know.
00:38:10If you ever need help with someone dressing here, you can always come to me.
00:38:20Not... not necessary.
00:38:25This secret vet you have going, is it about Cassidy? Because she seems to be popping up a lot.
00:38:31How many times do I have to tell you it's nothing?
00:38:32How many times do I have to tell you it's nothing?
00:38:33Your personal life is yours.
00:38:36But I really care about my job.
00:38:39So, if anything's going on that might jeopardize that, I'd really like to know.
00:38:45I would never jeopardize your job.
00:38:47Please trust me on that.
00:38:50Okay.
00:38:54I knew there was more going on.
00:39:04Cassidy, it's time to pull the trigger on Jake and Emma.
00:39:15Excuse me, do we have an appointment?
00:39:16Mr. Morrison.
00:39:19I'm here to help you.
00:39:22Unwind.
00:39:27What the?
00:39:29I come highly recommended.
00:39:34I didn't hire you.
00:39:36You shouldn't.
00:39:38Shhh.
00:39:39Shouldn't.
00:39:40Isn't a word in my vocabulary.
00:39:45God.
00:39:47It's been a while.
00:39:51See?
00:39:53Don't you just wanna let go?
00:40:02Stavis.
00:40:03Mr. Morrison would like to see you right away in his office.
00:40:15Stavis.
00:40:17You have to leave now.
00:40:24Wow.
00:40:25Seriously?
00:40:28Seriously?
00:40:29Wait.
00:40:30It's not what it looks like.
00:40:31It's not what it looks like.
00:40:32It never is with you, is it?
00:40:37Fuck!
00:40:39Get the hell out of here.
00:40:42Your loss.
00:40:43Gotta fix this somehow.
00:40:44Emma?
00:40:45Can I talk to you for a second?
00:40:46No.
00:40:47What?
00:40:48What?
00:40:49Peter called another board meeting.
00:40:50So you better not have any more surprises.
00:40:53You assured us that nothing was going on between you two.
00:40:54So.
00:40:55Explain this.
00:40:56Jake.
00:40:57Need I remind you of the bed?
00:40:58No.
00:40:59No.
00:41:00No.
00:41:01Don't need to remind you of anything, Peter.

00:56:51but he's still very powerful
00:56:53we can't run to the board without more evidence
00:56:55what do you suggest we do?
00:56:59I'll hire an independent auditor to go over everything to confirm and then once confirmed the board will have no choice but to believe us
00:57:06that's a good plan
00:57:08you get started on that
00:57:10and I'll loop in Jake

00:57:42and I have to

00:59:36I'll give it to deserve a new time
00:59:39and so won't we

01:00:52now
01:00:53ladies and gentlemen
01:00:56I've received information that I feel is imperative I share with you
01:01:00especially with our IPO just days away
01:01:03Clyde, Clyde, what is this about?
01:01:05well, it's no secret that my nephew, your CEO
01:01:10has a hard time keeping it in his pants if you will
01:01:14the tabloids
01:01:16are true
01:01:18he's been engaging in a
01:01:21inappropriate relationship
01:01:23with Miss Davis
01:01:24what?
01:01:27how does he know?
01:01:29unless there is proof I see no point to this meeting
01:01:34of course Peter
01:01:36you know me
01:01:37I don't lob accusations just willy-nilly
01:01:40Miss Abrams, do come in please
01:01:46I was just here to discuss some business with Mr. Johnson
01:01:50and I happened to pass by Mr. Morrison's office
01:01:53and saw this
01:01:55how the hell did she get those?
01:02:07we're screwed
01:02:08for fuck's sake Jake!
01:02:14sleeping with the chief of staff when we're about to go public
01:02:18it's not like that it-
01:02:28oh Miss Davis come on
01:02:31you can't honestly think you can deny that
01:02:35my personal life

01:02:39are you kidding me Jake?
01:02:41we're about to go public
01:02:42perception is everything
01:02:43who's gonna follow the leadership of a person that can't distinguish
01:02:46personal from professional
01:02:48you're just trying to turn me into a scandal
01:02:50to save yourself
01:02:51I'm trying to save this company
01:02:53and your little tryst speaks volumes about your lack of judgment
01:02:57judgment?
01:02:59you want to talk about judgment?
01:03:01why don't you turn that near inwards?
01:03:03what are you talking about?
01:03:05let's talk about your offshore accounts Clyde
01:03:11he's just trying to save himself
01:03:14he'll throw me under the bus no problem
01:03:15this meeting is highly inappropriate
01:03:18for the both of you
01:03:19now if this IPO gets scrutiny because of this internal drama
01:03:23this is not drama Peter
01:03:24it's corruption

01:04:53didn't you Jakey?
01:04:55if I can't have you
01:05:00I will make damn sure no one can
01:05:04as much as I'd hate to admit this Jake
01:05:08she is right
01:05:09we can't overlook your misconduct
01:05:12Peter
01:05:13it's not what it looks like
01:05:16Jake
01:05:18there's no point in denying it anymore
01:05:21yes
01:05:24it's true
01:05:25Jake and I are seeing each other
01:05:28so
01:05:29so you lied to us
01:05:31when we met with you after your San Francisco trip?
01:05:34no
01:05:35we weren't seeing each other then
01:05:36it's more recent than that
01:05:38oh Miss Davis
01:05:40of all people
01:05:42you as the chief of staff should know better
01:05:45you as the chief of staff should know better
01:05:48you as the chief of staff should know better
01:05:50we hired you to keep him in line
01:05:53and then we asked you to keep your distance from him
01:05:56how can we expect you to maintain the standards of the company for staff
01:06:00when you can't even maintain them yourself?
01:06:02you're right
01:06:04and I completely understand
01:06:07I'll submit my resignation effective immediately
01:06:11this isn't Emma's fault
01:06:13it's mine
01:06:14I request that you reject the resignation
01:06:17Jake
01:06:18I don't think you're in any position to request anything
01:06:23if losing my job
01:06:24is a price I have to pay
01:06:29for loving her
01:06:30so be it
01:06:31I step down as CEO effective immediately
01:06:36no Jake you can't
01:06:37this is your career
01:06:38everything you've worked for
01:06:39you're more important to me than a title
01:06:41I won't let you lose on everything just because of my mistakes
01:06:44you're stepping down for a fling?
01:06:47this isn't a fling
01:06:49you've never lasted more than six months with anybody Jake
01:06:52how are we supposed to believe this is different?
01:06:54I'm not asking you to
01:06:56you're talking about walking away from my legacy
01:06:59everything your family built
01:07:01I get it
01:07:03I've always been
01:07:04bit of a playboy
01:07:06bit of an understatement
01:07:08Jake
01:07:09you would really forfeit your position
01:07:11the money everything for a relationship?
01:07:14this isn't just a relationship
01:07:16Emma's different
01:07:18than any other woman I've been with
01:07:21and I love her
01:07:22and that's enough for debate
01:07:24just like all of you
01:07:30I thought Jake was a playboy
01:07:34but over time
01:07:36I came to find that he's much more than that
01:07:39he's kind
01:07:41caring
01:07:43protective
01:07:45and committed
01:07:47and I couldn't help but fall in love with him
01:07:50and if that means
01:07:51that I can't work at Morrison Enterprises
01:07:53then
01:07:55I'll step down
01:08:01we're gonna need a moment to discuss this
01:08:03of course
01:08:04we'll be in my office
01:08:07I can't believe we just did that
01:08:09did you really
01:08:11just tell the boy that you love me?
01:08:14you could have at least told me first
01:08:16I don't know what came over me
01:08:20but
01:08:21but I meant it
01:08:22Jake
01:08:24Jake
01:08:25I love you
01:08:26I love you too

01:08:40we're not the ones who need saving
01:08:44because I'm suing you
01:08:46you're suing me?
01:08:48for what?
01:08:50well let's see
