00:00:01My name is Claire Duvall.
00:00:03My fiancé betrayed me with the woman who I thought was a friend.
00:00:07Dylan, where are you?
00:00:09Ava really needs me.
00:00:11I'm ready to move forward.
00:00:14Mr. Cross, you need a wife, and I need revenge.
00:00:18We should get married.
00:00:20The days of pretending to be a model, they're over, Claire.
00:00:24You've lost everything.
00:00:27And you just don't know it yet.
00:00:29You're not a nobody.
00:00:31Nobody took their eyes off of you.
00:00:33You don't have to say that just because we're married.
00:00:36Claire cannot succeed.
00:00:39Perfect.
00:00:40Maxwell will pay for this.
00:00:43He retouches my wife.
00:00:45Since Christian came into my life, I think my luck has finally changed.
00:00:49So, who will be the 23rd winner of the top model competition?
00:00:59Claire Bear, my love for you, it transcends words.
00:01:11You are my forever.
00:01:13Will you marry me?
00:01:17Marry me.

00:13:02let's do it this night can't get any crazier oh i gotta get this hey it's not good ava just gave an
00:13:13interview it's not looking good ava just gave an interview she told the reporters that she did not
00:13:21ask you to step in she said that nobody can model aliexpress and ventilator like she does and in fact
00:13:27she said that you deliberately pushed her and that's how she got hurt wow so i've been bumped from
00:13:35stealing her spot to bodily assault she's one step ahead of us not for long ava's gonna want to
00:13:42revel in this victory and she has a thing for bathrooms so yeah gross zoe here's what we're gonna
00:13:51do mr latour i take it you saw the interview yes yes i agree claire has her issues no no no don't
00:14:01worry i've taken care of it don't worry i've taken care of it my legal department is preparing a
00:14:08statement for the press where she'll take full responsibility ava will be in top shape back on
00:14:15her feet for the shoot in seattle yes you have my word so what do you say the tour is in the bag
00:14:22but claire has to take the fall perfect let's celebrate
00:14:38are you gonna join me oh uh do you think that's a good idea because the doctor hasn't diagnosed your
00:14:45mysterious stomach issue yet i have a different kind of ache and i need you to take care of it
00:14:57what is that a jackson pollock it is it's my favorite piece of his it's incredible you hungry starved
00:15:15you're awfully quiet more like speechless the food was amazing where did you learn to cook like that
00:15:25it can sound cliche but growing up i spent more time in the kitchen with the staff than
00:15:30with my actual parents i get it you would you're nothing like i thought you'd be dare i ask
00:15:39it's ruthless someone used to getting what they want at the expense of others someone
00:15:46who cares more about the bottom line than people to most i am that person but the ones i hold dear
00:15:55or as I choose to let in.
00:16:13Make no mistake, Claire, if you do betray me,
00:16:16give me no forgiveness.
00:16:18Right back at you, Mr. Cross.
00:16:25Good morning.
00:16:34Sorry, I must have dozed off.
00:16:36Hold on, let me get that.
00:16:38I don't think that's a good idea.
00:16:40No.
00:16:44Hello?
00:16:47Hello?
00:16:48Hey, where are you?
00:16:49I found a place to hide out.
00:16:50The reporters are hounding me.
00:16:52Claire Bear, I know this isn't ideal,
00:16:53but I need you in the office right now.
00:16:56Not ideal.
00:16:57Ava practically told the whole world I'm crazy.
00:17:00Oh, just forgive her.
00:17:01Poor Ava.
00:17:02The medication she's on, it's making her paranoid.
00:17:05Will I see you soon?
00:17:07Sure, Dylan. I'll see you soon.
00:17:12What are you doing?
00:17:15Just in case you need anything.
00:17:17Daddy?
00:17:18I mean, I was gonna put hubby,
00:17:19but since you're keeping me a secret...
00:17:22for now.
00:17:30What were you thinking, Claire?
00:17:32All you had to do was put on the damn bracelet
00:17:34and walk the runway show for Ava.
00:17:36Why would you draw that much attention to your legs?
00:17:39The bracelet was tailored to Ava's wrist,
00:17:41and she's bigger boned than me.
00:17:43It didn't fit.
00:17:44I had to improvise.
00:17:45That makes sense.
00:17:47You know, I knew Ava was dead set
00:17:49that you had some agenda against me,
00:17:51but I told her there's no way that you would sabotage me.
00:17:54We're getting married.
00:17:55You love me.
00:17:56You would never hurt me.
00:17:59You're right, Dylan. You know me so well.
00:18:01There's still a situation here,
00:18:03and if you don't do something to fix this,
00:18:05Muse will lose the Latour contract.
00:18:08This will cause a domino effect at the agency,
00:18:10and I won't be able to stop the cutbacks.
00:18:12Junior staff will lose their jobs.
00:18:14That includes Zoe.
00:18:16I can't have that.
00:18:19I can't have that.
00:18:21Well, there's not much time.
00:18:23My legal department has prepared a damage control script.
00:18:27Memorize it.
00:18:29You'll be meeting with the press in ten minutes.
00:18:32But this is a confession.
00:18:35I might not have a career after this.
00:18:37Well, let's be honest.
00:18:38Ava is our top-billing model,
00:18:40and you, Claire.
00:18:42It never really took off,
00:18:44despite all the opportunities I created for you.
00:18:48I get it.
00:18:49I'm expendable.
00:18:51And one more thing.
00:18:53Stick to the script.
00:18:55No more improvising.
00:19:05Everything ready to go?
00:19:06My fingers on the trigger.
00:19:08I gotta go.
00:19:09Fire away.
00:19:10Okay.
00:19:11Please tell me if you're using a burner.
00:19:13Who the hell are you?
00:19:18I'm thinking too small, Rookie.
00:19:20Good luck.
00:19:30Members of the press,
00:19:32thank you for coming.
00:19:33In regards to the events that occurred at the True Love Fashion Show,
00:19:36I deeply regret any harm I caused Mr. Vincent Latour and his revered brand.
00:19:41I take full responsibility for my action.
00:19:45New's talent agency had no knowledge of my intention to take Ava's place on the runway.
00:19:51His photos would suggest otherwise.
00:19:56Photos?
00:19:57What photos?
00:20:02Photos?
00:20:03What photos?
00:20:04This is evidence that Ms. Duvall regularly pretends to be Ms. Bennett over the last two years.
00:20:10Surely the president of the company must have known.
00:20:13Right.
00:20:14Claire, if you're being used as a scapegoat and you want to be rescued, just blink twice.
00:20:19Ms. Duvall stands by her statement.
00:20:21She acted alone as the sole perpetrator.
00:20:24I, we, news talent as a company had no idea of any and all prior incidences.
00:20:31Oh, we are done here.
00:20:36Wait a minute.
00:20:38Mr. Maxwell.
00:20:39Mr. Maxwell.
00:20:40Mr. Maxwell.
00:20:41Mr. Maxwell.
00:20:42What happened?
00:20:43Wait, wait, wait.
00:20:44Hold on.
00:20:45Mr. Maxwell.
00:20:46Mr. Maxwell.
00:20:47Wait a minute.
00:20:48Nicely done, Gavin.
00:20:50Thank you, Christian.
00:20:52The lady's had it under control.
00:20:53I just gave him a little boost.
00:20:55My wife's a force of nature.
00:20:57Yeah, she's had to be.
00:21:01Take a look at that.
00:21:08Here's what I got so far.
00:21:09Upon signing with Muse Talent Agency at 21, Claire Duvall was initially overseen by Miranda Maxwell.
00:21:15Don Maxwell's older sister.
00:21:17Now the chairman of Maxwell Holdings here.
00:21:19We've crossed paths.
00:21:20Exactly.
00:21:21Claire was hailed a rising star in the modeling world.
00:21:24Then inexplicably, her stardom plummeted.
00:21:27Rumors began to spread that she was temperamental.
00:21:29She would show up late for shoots or not at all.
00:21:31There was even suspicion that drugs weren't involved.
00:21:34Offers dried up completely.
00:21:36They deliberately ruined her.
00:21:38It appears that way.
00:21:39But why?
00:21:41If you want to crush someone's dream, you know, just take it away.
00:21:46You kill it.
00:21:48By that time, Claire's access to senior management was non-existent.
00:21:53She was relegated to a junior manager by the name of Zoe Bauer.
00:21:56And that's when Dylan Maxwell started dating Claire.
00:22:00He broke her down just so we could scoop her up.
00:22:03Doesn't make sense.
00:22:05Claire Duvall is the total package.
00:22:08Why would a talent agency tank the career of a supermodel in the making?
00:22:11Because there was more money to be made elsewhere.
00:22:16Someone's pulling Dylan Maxwell's strengths.
00:22:18We have to find the puppet master.
00:22:30What?
00:22:56Claire, the paparazzi keeps following me everywhere but I think I can lose it.
00:22:59Can I come over?
00:23:03No.
00:23:04No, I'm crashing at Zoe's.
00:23:06We need to strategize our next move.
00:23:08What next move?
00:23:09There is no next move.
00:23:10I've done my part and took the blame.
00:23:12No, no, no.
00:23:13It backfired.
00:23:14They're not after you now, Claire.
00:23:15They're after me.
00:23:16You could go and apologize to Ava.
00:23:19You can't be serious.
00:23:21No, I mean if the press sees you do that then...
00:23:23Then they'll think I'm crazy.
00:23:25They'll think you're repentant.
00:23:26You know, I'm starting to question your loyalty, Claire.
00:23:31Are you still with me?
00:23:35Of course, Dylan.
00:23:40I'll be right there.
00:23:41When she gets here, I say we put Claire in her place.
00:23:50The little princess bowing before me.
00:23:52Genius.
00:23:53I love it.
00:23:54And everyone will see just how low she has fallen.
00:23:56That little bitch needs it drilled into her sad head that Dylan is mine.
00:24:02True that.
00:24:03Honestly, the one true star of Muse Talent Agency is Ava Bennett.
00:24:10Maxwell.
00:24:11Accurate.
00:24:14She's going to crush your buttons.
00:24:16Don't let her.
00:24:17I won't.
00:24:18Stop.
00:24:23She's coming.
00:24:28Ava.
00:24:30Claire.
00:24:34Didn't you come here to do something like apologize to moi?
00:24:39That's what Dylan wants.
00:24:41Then get to it.
00:24:42What is this?
00:24:51Well, if you really want to apologize to me,
00:24:57then get down on your hands and knees.
00:25:01Then wash my feet.
00:25:05Just when I thought you couldn't sink any lower,
00:25:10you surprised me.
00:25:12Doesn't really sound like an apology, does it?
00:25:17You know what, Ava?
00:25:18I am sorry.
00:25:20You know what, Ava?
00:25:21I am sorry.
00:25:24Seeing you like this.
00:25:25Seeing what you've become.
00:25:27Seeing just how far you'll go
00:25:29to feed the emptiness inside of you.
00:25:31You know what?
00:25:32It's not your feet that need to be washed.
00:25:34It's that cold, black heart of yours.
00:25:39Bravo, Claire.
00:25:41How long have you been rehearsing that little speech?
00:25:43I'm still waiting on my apology.
00:25:46Tick tock.
00:25:48Then let me be perfectly clear.
00:25:50I will never, for as long as I live, apologize to the likes of you.
00:25:59Did you get all that?
00:26:02I will never, for as long as I live, apologize to the likes of you.
00:26:03I will never, for as long as I live, apologize to the likes of you.
00:26:07Ho, ho, ho, ho.
00:26:08Listen here.
00:26:09Claire D was about to show all her true colors.
00:26:10But guess what, fams?
00:26:11That girl has nothing to apologize for.
00:26:12Not a zilch.
00:26:13Because this intrepid reporter has obtained
00:26:14everything.
00:26:15I will never, for as long as I live.
00:26:16I will never, for as long as I live, apologize to the likes of you.
00:26:17I will never, for as long as I live, apologize to the likes of you.
00:26:22Oh, ho, ho, ho.
00:26:24Listen here.
00:26:25Claire D was about to show all her true colors.
00:26:28But guess what, fams?
00:26:29That girl has nothing to apologize for.
00:26:32Not a zilch.
00:26:33Because this intrepid reporter has obtained intimate photos of Ava B and a certain Muse CEO.
00:26:40Dylan M, aren't you engaged to, uh, Claire D?
00:26:44She just gotta cheat, I guess.
00:26:46And listen here, Ava B.
00:26:47You are one naughty, nasty, disgusting little girl, by the way.
00:26:53So, tune in next week to see what happens on the Battle Royale of Supermodels.
00:26:58I'm gonna go ahead and wash my eyes out now, cuz I feel wrong.
00:27:02Wrong.
00:27:03This Reggie took your anonymous tip and ran with it.
00:27:06It's brilliant, Claire.
00:27:07Oh, that, that was nothing.
00:27:09You're enjoying this.
00:27:12What's that old expression, revenge is sweet?
00:27:15I like this side of you.
00:27:17Then do you want to join me on part two of my revenge?
00:27:20Lead the way.
00:27:25Hey, it's Claire. Leave a message.
00:27:27Hey, Claire Bear. Um, I'm here where you told us to meet. Where are you?
00:27:32Okay, love, that Ava thing, it's not what it seems, okay?
00:27:35We can talk about it when you get here.
00:27:37See you soon.
00:27:38I cannot tell you how many times I was one left hanging, waiting for him.
00:27:52Sometimes he would show. Most often not at all.
00:27:56Do you still love him?
00:27:58How can I love someone I never really knew?
00:28:02Look at him over there. Plotting ways to get me back.
00:28:07He's clearly into Ava.
00:28:09Why is he trying so hard to salvage a relationship he cares nothing about?
00:28:13It's the million dollar question.
00:28:20Poor bastard.
00:28:22You want to keep watching?
00:28:24No. I'm ready to move forward.
00:28:27Let's go back to my house and get the last of my things.
00:28:39She came by to save you night.
00:28:41Come in.
00:28:45Is this your family?
00:28:46Yeah, this is my debutante ball. I was 20.
00:28:50Was it a memorable night?
00:28:53Unforgettable.
00:28:56Claire?
00:28:58Where are you, Claire?
00:29:00Claire?
00:29:03Claire?
00:29:04There you are.
00:29:05What are you doing hiding out of here?
00:29:07This is your debut.
00:29:09I just need a moment, Mom.
00:29:12Well, your grandmother's looking for you.
00:29:14She has someone she wants you to meet.
00:29:16It's quite a catch.
00:29:18I want more from this life than balls and suitable matches and this golden cage.
00:29:23There's a world out there to explore.
00:29:25Adventures to have risks to take.
00:29:28Enough of this nonsense, Claire.
00:29:30Your grandmother is not someone to be trifled with.
00:29:33Well, tell her thanks, but no thanks.
00:29:35Honestly, tell her I'd rather die than meet another boring, entitled rich boy that checks all of her boxes.
00:29:43Don't be selfish.
00:29:46Can't afford another scandal.
00:29:48Like when Dad left his first wife for you?
00:29:55Like when Dad left his first wife for you?
00:29:58Remember who you are.
00:30:04The sole heiress to the Winthrop Empire.
00:30:08You need to stay here and do your part, young lady.
00:30:12I'm not your young lady.
00:30:14And I'm no longer a Winthrop.
00:30:17From now on, I'll forge my own path and make my own name.
00:30:20That was the last time I saw them before I ran away.
00:30:31They died in a helicopter crash a year later.
00:30:34Hmm, what's the five going to be today?
00:30:55Endless possibilities.
00:30:56So many to pick from.
00:30:57With AliExpress, you're covered wherever you go.
00:31:00Dylan, did you see it?
00:31:01It should be me modeling for AliExpress.
00:31:03First the scandal and now this.
00:31:04The world is turning against me.
00:31:05I need you.
00:31:07You're not the only one going through shit, Ava.
00:31:09Why are you being so mean?
00:31:11My office. Now.
00:31:12Time.
00:31:13Oh!
00:31:14Oh!
00:31:15Oh, oh.
00:31:16Oh!
00:31:17Oh!
00:31:18Oh, oh.
00:31:19Oh.
00:31:20Oh, oh.
00:31:21Oh.
00:31:22Come to meet you, baby brother.
00:31:24This was supposed to be easy.
00:31:26I'm calling for AliExpress.
00:31:27Oh, oh.
00:31:29Oh, oh!
00:31:30Oh, oh, oh.
00:31:31Oh.
00:31:32Oh, oh.
00:31:33Oh.
00:31:34Oh, oh.
00:31:35Oh, oh.
00:31:36Oh, oh.
00:31:37Oh.
00:31:38Oh, oh, oh.
00:31:39Easy. And you're fucking it all up.
00:31:46Claire, it's me.
00:31:48I'm coming in, okay?
00:31:59Claire, they're applying backfire. Should I be worried?
00:32:01Where are you?
00:32:03I'm home.
00:32:04Bullshit. I am in your house.
00:32:07Yeah, I woke up this morning and got like a thousand texts from Dylan asking for a whereabouts.
00:32:11He wanted my address since you were crashing at my place, but we both know you're not at my place nor at yours.
00:32:17So Claire, where are you?
00:32:19In the mood for a frittata?
00:32:21Frittata? Who's that?
00:32:26So, I got married.
00:32:30Married?
00:32:31A wedding? How?
00:32:34With whom?
00:32:36It's a long story. It's too long for a phone call. Stay put. Gavin will pick you up.
00:32:41Gavin? Who the hell is Gavin?
00:32:50Hey, Rookie. Gavin at your service.
00:32:53You.
00:32:55What?
00:32:56Why would you do that?
00:32:57For being an arrogant prick.
00:32:58You gonna short fuse, Rookie?
00:32:59My name is Zoe.
00:33:00Asshole.
00:33:01We're coming in. Hi.
00:33:02Hi.
00:33:03I'm Christian Cross.
00:33:04I'm Christian Cross.
00:33:05I'm Christian Cross.
00:33:06I'm Christian Cross.
00:33:07Believe me, Mr. Cross.
00:33:08I know who you are.
00:33:09you.
00:33:10You are.
00:33:11You.
00:33:12You are.
00:33:13We're coming in.
00:33:27Hi.
00:33:32I'm Christian Cross.
00:33:34I'm Christian Cross.
00:33:36Believe me, Mr. Cross.
00:33:37I know who you are.
00:33:39Everybody knows.
00:33:40Call me Christian.
00:33:41I mean, Claire talks so much about you,
00:33:43but I feel like I already know you.
00:33:44Yeah?
00:33:46Cool.
00:33:48Claire, a word?
00:33:53Excuse us.
00:33:57No kicks for him?
00:34:02You married Christian Cross?
00:34:03Don't freak out.
00:34:04Too late.
00:34:06Christian Cross is your husband.
00:34:08Claire, this is like next, next level.
00:34:11Dylan is going to shit himself.
00:34:14You couldn't ask for sweeter revenge
00:34:16than dumping that shriveled little worm
00:34:17and scoring the richest, baddest,
00:34:21sexiest dude in this whole freaking planet.
00:34:24Zoe, we can't tell anyone yet.
00:34:27I swear you won't say anything.
00:34:29I swear.
00:34:30This is going to be epic.
00:34:32Oh my gosh, look how cute.
00:34:35I love it.
00:34:35I love it.
00:34:35I love it.
00:34:40Dylan, what are you doing here?
00:34:42I need to talk to you.
00:34:44Doc, have you figured out what's wrong with her stomach?
00:34:47Yes, I predict that it will be resolved in nine months.
00:34:49Why?
00:34:50That's long.
00:34:51Medicine has come a long way, Mr. Maxwell,
00:34:53but even science can't shorten
00:34:54the gestation period of a fetus.
00:34:58Huh.
00:35:01Okay, so,
00:35:03we stabilized your pregnancy
00:35:05and corrected your acute need.
00:35:07You're no longer at risk of miscarriage,
00:35:09but if you continue to neglect your condition,
00:35:12you will need to come back
00:35:13and get another transfusion.
00:35:14Do not wait until you faint this time, Ms. Bennett.
00:35:17Thanks, doctor.
00:35:18I won't.
00:35:18Okay, Ms. Bennett.
00:35:20Mr. Maxwell.
00:35:27No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:35:31I can't believe this.
00:35:33You're pregnant?
00:35:34Why wouldn't you tell me about this before?
00:35:37This is a fucking disaster.
00:35:39How can you have a bun in the oven
00:35:41and walk on a runway, huh?
00:35:43You know if the press finds out,
00:35:45we're fucked.
00:35:47They will tear us to shreds.
00:35:48There is no coming back from this.
00:35:50Do you understand what you've done?
00:35:52If Claire finds out about this,
00:35:53she won't marry me.
00:35:54I've lost everything.
00:35:57How dare you?
00:35:58I am so sick and tired of hearing Claire's name.
00:36:03You are going to be a father now, Dylan.
00:36:05How can you just still marry her?
00:36:07You told me you don't love her anymore.
00:36:08I don't love her.
00:36:10Ava, it is...
00:36:11Then break up with her and marry me!
00:36:13No, it is not that simple.
00:36:14Claire is worth billions.
00:36:17Or her family is.
00:36:18She isn't Winthrop.
00:36:19So you're telling me that that skank-leggy bitch
00:36:23is some secret heiress?
00:36:26When Claire became a model,
00:36:28she had to change her name
00:36:29because her family didn't approve.
00:36:31And how do you know this information?
00:36:33Miranda, my sister,
00:36:35she runs in the same circles as her grandmother.
00:36:38Just think about it.
00:36:39If I marry Claire,
00:36:40the only thing that's standing between me
00:36:42and $3 billion
00:36:43is an ancient bitch
00:36:46who's about to fall over.
00:36:48You mean $3 billion
00:36:50standing between us?
00:36:52Yes.
00:36:52Right, Dylan?
00:36:53Of course, Ava.
00:36:54But in order for that to work,
00:36:56Claire cannot succeed.
00:36:58And you have to be at the top of your game
00:37:01and win the competition.
00:37:03Or if that doesn't work,
00:37:05sabotage.
00:37:06Claire won't know what hit her.
00:37:07And we still have the Latour contract.
00:37:10So we can turn this thing around.
00:37:12You'll win top model at the competition.
00:37:15Claire will be crushed
00:37:16and have to marry me.
00:37:19And then we'll tell everybody
00:37:21that you're abroad in Milan
00:37:22while you're having our baby.
00:37:25And once that elder bitch croaks,
00:37:28a series of unfortunate events
00:37:29will happen to Claire.
00:37:31Too bad.
00:37:32So sad.
00:37:33Bye-bye, Claire Bear.
00:37:34Bye-bye, Claire Bear.
00:37:35Well, after careful consideration,
00:37:44Latour has chosen Claire Duval
00:37:47as the new face of our true love collection.
00:37:49I'm deeply honored by Ms. Latour's faith in me.
00:37:55And I look forward to representing
00:37:57such a prestigious global brand.
00:37:59Uh, Ms. Latour,
00:38:01a little birdie told me that
00:38:02Ava B's contract was terminated
00:38:04using a morality clause.
00:38:06Well,
00:38:06after the whole
00:38:08bathroom gate scandal,
00:38:10can you blame me?
00:38:11But Ms. Duval's not without
00:38:12her own controversy.
00:38:13Especially after impersonating
00:38:15Ava Bennett at her own show.
00:38:18What made you decide to give her a shot?
00:38:20Well,
00:38:21Christian,
00:38:23you were asking me to bet
00:38:24on an unproven model
00:38:25with a
00:38:26dubious past.
00:38:28I could tell you how brilliant she is
00:38:31or how lucky you'd be to have her,
00:38:33but I'm not going to try to persuade you,
00:38:35Vince.
00:38:35Time will do that.
00:38:39What I will say is
00:38:41if you don't hire Claire Duval,
00:38:44Pinnacle will unilaterally stop promoting
00:38:46the tour across all platforms,
00:38:48from film and television productions
00:38:50to our cruise lines.
00:38:51Well,
00:38:54you know,
00:38:56when I decided to expand
00:38:57from a single shop
00:38:58on Jewelers Row
00:38:59to an international
00:39:01brand with shops
00:39:03on seven continents,
00:39:05someone took a chance on me.
00:39:07And it is finally time
00:39:08that I
00:39:09repay that favor.
00:39:10So,
00:39:10to the future of
00:39:11La Tour,
00:39:12we are expecting
00:39:13great things
00:39:14from Ms. Duval
00:39:15at her upcoming
00:39:16photoshoot in Seattle.
00:39:21When I asked you to move in,
00:39:25I never pictured you
00:39:26in the kitchen.
00:39:27It's
00:39:27quite a sight.
00:39:29You're not supposed to be home
00:39:30for another hour.
00:39:31I was going to clean up.
00:39:32Where's the staff?
00:39:34I gave them the night off
00:39:35so we could celebrate my gig.
00:39:37Can't wait to hear all about it.
00:39:40The oven.
00:39:41I totally forgot
00:39:42about the steaks.
00:39:49I like it that way.
00:39:50If a waiter asked me
00:39:52how I wanted it,
00:39:53I would say that.
00:39:54That looks good.
00:39:55But it's not great.
00:39:56Okay.
00:39:57Take out it.
00:40:00Burst.
00:40:20I always wondered
00:40:25what it would be like
00:40:26come home
00:40:28to someone
00:40:29at the end of the night.
00:40:30And?
00:40:30to be you and me
00:40:32just you and me
00:40:34tonight
00:40:35there's nowhere

00:40:56so grab your arms
00:41:07around me
00:41:08and hold me tight

00:41:22to a place
00:41:24when I'm
00:41:24away
00:41:25and I'm
00:41:26ing the
00:41:27salt
00:41:28I'm
00:41:28.
00:41:32How Boy
00:41:39Is
00:41:42I feel
00:41:44I don't
00:41:46You don't gotta be shy, relax your mind, relax your mind, don't take your time, don't take your time, it's alright, it's alright, say your world, say your world, say your world, talking to you every day you want.
00:42:08So are you ever going to tell me why you had to get married?
00:42:11It's not a very romantic story.
00:42:13And mine is, I think we're past that.
00:42:17The crossmen throughout history have always been adventurers, some might even say rogues.
00:42:23There were quite a few rakes, more than a few duels.
00:42:27Why sir, how scandalous. I'm most assuredly intrigued.
00:42:32A lot of them died really young, of nowhere.
00:42:36The crosses were literally dying off.
00:42:39So, a codicil was added that required all crossmen to be married by the time they were 30,
00:42:44or they'd lose their inheritance.
00:42:47Seriously?
00:42:48Seriously.
00:42:49I turned 30.
00:42:51On that day.
00:42:54That was your birthday.
00:42:56You didn't even celebrate.
00:42:59So, Dave,
00:43:01you came home with me.
00:43:03Christian, my dear.
00:43:19Christian, my dear, how is your evening going so far?
00:43:35Yeah, good so far.
00:43:36Thank you for inviting me.
00:43:37Of course.
00:43:38And your ventures.
00:43:39Tell me about your most recent acquisition.
00:43:42A Silicon Valley startup with a promising artificial intelligence.
00:43:46I think it could be a game changer.
00:43:48Speaking of change, have you found anyone special?
00:43:53Not yet.
00:43:54I'm still searching.
00:43:55Well, then you must meet my granddaughter, Claire.
00:44:00There she is.
00:44:08There she is.
00:44:09You need to stay here and do your part, young lady.
00:44:14From now on, I'll forge my own path and make my own name.
00:44:18Do not test me, Miss Winthrop.
00:44:33Throwing away a billion dollar trust fund for a whimsical game of independence.
00:44:38Don't you worry.
00:44:41I'll bring her to heel.
00:44:43Don't bother.
00:44:44I have no interest in a bride who's been coerced.
00:44:46Hey.
00:44:47You're so beautiful.
00:45:00Hey, stop.
00:45:04This is real for me.
00:45:07Promise we'll then forget that.
00:45:09I promise.
00:45:11My meetings at Pinnacle should end around five.
00:45:33Have you done here with Simon and Claire?
00:45:34Making some of the city.
00:45:36Can't wait.
00:45:36Anais Adler is one of the most famous fashion photographers in the world.
00:45:42Christian, what if I freeze up or stumble or choke or something?
00:45:46I mean spectacular.
00:45:47Because you are spectacular.
00:45:50Okay?
00:45:50Okay.
00:45:50A private plane, a limousine to the shoot, and a hunky mogul waiting for you afterward?
00:46:11Sign me up.
00:46:13These last five years, I've had such bad luck.
00:46:15But since Christian came into my life, I think my luck has finally changed.
00:46:26No one deserves it more than you do, Claire.
00:46:29Now let's get in there and blow them all away.
00:46:31I'm with you today.
00:46:43Claire's my girl.
00:46:45I've got this.
00:46:46I think, Ms. Bauer, that we got off on the wrong foot.
00:46:50I think you're an excellent manager.
00:46:52And under normal circumstances, Ms. Duvall will be in great hands.
00:46:56But?
00:46:56There are dark forces at play.
00:46:59Claire's going to need all the help she can get.
00:47:03Choose.
00:47:04For Claire.
00:47:06Choose.
00:47:10Oh.
00:47:11Claire.
00:47:12This is AFL's date.
00:47:14Ah, you're so lovely, my sweet.
00:47:17Because he may be the one, no?
00:47:20So, what necklace do you wear?
00:47:22Come.
00:47:23That one?
00:47:25Oh, incredible.
00:47:32Oui, oui.
00:47:34Oh, yes.
00:47:35Your eyes have so much hope and dream.
00:47:40Oui.
00:47:42Claire, come.
00:47:43Rest.
00:47:44The male model, he should be here any moment.
00:47:47And let's hope whoever they sent can match your looks and your talent.
00:47:51It is tragic.
00:47:53We never worked together before.
00:47:55No, it's a deal.
00:47:56No, you're right.
00:48:01It's happening.
00:48:02It's finally happening.
00:48:07Dylan, you scared me.
00:48:08What are you doing here?
00:48:09The last time that I checked, we were still engaged.
00:48:11So, I have every right to see my fiancée?
00:48:14Yeah, well, you lost that right when you slept with Ava.
00:48:18No, that was a one-time thing.
00:48:20All right, and it didn't mean anything at all.
00:48:22But we could have moved past it if you would have just returned my calls.
00:48:27Come on.
00:48:28Don't be like this to me.
00:48:30Not after everything I've done for you.
00:48:33Done for me?
00:48:35You weren't just a crappy boyfriend, Dylan.
00:48:37You were a crappy agent, too.
00:48:39I don't know how you tricked Latour into giving you this gig.
00:48:43But you're making a fool of yourself.
00:48:46The days of pretending to be a model, they're over, Claire.
00:48:50All right, you're coming home with me right now.
00:48:52We'll get married in Vegas on our way back.
00:48:56No.
00:48:56We're over.
00:48:59We've been over for a long time, Dylan.
00:49:02Leave.
00:49:02We've been over for a long time.
00:49:06Leave.
00:49:10You're hurting me.
00:49:11I haven't even begun to hurt you.
00:49:13You know, my biggest mistake was being too gentle with you.
00:49:17You know that male model that's supposed to show up today?
00:49:19He's not coming.
00:49:21Your biggest break is about to be your worst nightmare.
00:49:25Claire, nobody will show up for you after your little drama today ruins this shoot.
00:49:31You think you're too good for me, Claire?
00:49:33Huh?
00:49:34You will never escape from me.
00:49:36Never go!
00:49:37Hey, you need to leave.
00:49:39Now.
00:49:40I'm going.
00:49:41I'll see you soon, Claire Bear.
00:49:47Are you okay?
00:49:50No.
00:49:52Dylan canceled the male model.
00:49:54No one's coming.
00:49:55When Latour finds out,
00:49:57I'm ruined.
00:49:59There's still time to fix this.
00:50:02Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
00:50:08Hey.
00:50:10How quick can you get to the studio?
00:50:13Year one foot traffic, what are we projecting?
00:50:15Fifteen million.
00:50:17Concertatively.
00:50:17And if we surpass that?
00:50:19Ten percent bonus is currently.
00:50:21Straight up.
00:50:21Let's make history together.
00:50:35Excuse me.
00:50:37How quick can you get to the studio?
00:50:40Hello, Vincent.
00:50:42This is catastrophe.
00:50:44My time, it does not extend eternal.
00:50:46No, where is the lover
00:50:49to complete the true love piece de resistance, huh?
00:50:53Anahees, yes, I know.
00:50:54I am sorry.
00:50:55We are scrambling to find somebody.
00:50:57But nothing is looking good.
00:50:59I just...
00:51:00Miss Claire Duvall, I am telling you,
00:51:02disaster just follows this chick wherever she goes.
00:51:05Crisis averted.
00:51:21The lover is here.
00:51:24And won't do what a lover he is.
00:51:29Thank you for doing this.
00:51:31He touch you?
00:51:33Maxwell will pay for this.
00:51:34And he touches my wife.
00:51:40Quick, quick.
00:51:41Get the lover in costume.
00:51:43Please.
00:51:46Excuse me, Miss Adler.
00:51:48Let's try not to show his face.
00:51:50Mr. Cross really values his privacy.
00:51:52I have an NDA here for you and the crew to sign.
00:51:54Thank you so much.
00:51:56Wait.
00:51:57Now.
00:51:58This is the grand gesture.
00:52:01The moment of your time.
00:52:03The height of La Romance.
00:52:06Voila.
00:52:07There he is, Claire.
00:52:08General money.
00:52:09Ring in hand.
00:52:10A question in his eyes.
00:52:15And you.
00:52:17Your heart says we.
00:52:18Your whole lips.
00:52:20This is the dream.
00:52:22Country.
00:52:23True romance.
00:52:23True romance.
00:52:25Nice.
00:52:26Christian Cross.
00:52:41I'll be damned.
00:52:43The bond, it has a mature, deepness.
00:52:47Eh?
00:52:48No matter what life threw at you, it, um, cannot tell you about, huh?
00:52:57Look into each other's eyes and whisper.
00:53:02Hey, waifu.
00:53:04Hey, hubby.
00:53:05This campaign is going to be a massive hit.
00:53:15Hey, fams.
00:53:15Reggie here.
00:53:17So, buckle up, because this week, oh boy, oh boy, we have the drama for the battle royale of the supermodels.
00:53:23First up, let's look at the creme de la creme of the nominees.
00:53:27Of course, top of the list is our reigning queen, Ava B.
00:53:30But hold up, girlfriend, because guess what?
00:53:33We have a stunning newcomer in Claire D.
00:53:36And we all know how she's skyrocketed to fame.
00:53:39Of course, by what?
00:53:40Drum roll, please.
00:53:42Yep, that's right.
00:53:44The Latour True Love Campaign.
00:53:46Shot by the one and only Anaïs Adler.
00:53:49Claire Dugal.
00:53:51She transcends Mère Bickey.
00:53:53Je ne sais quoi.
00:53:55A soulful essence in her eye.
00:53:58C'est magnifique.
00:54:00That's right.
00:54:01The Latour True Love Campaign.
00:54:04Ladies and gentlemen, fams.
00:54:05Claire D is literally the personification of grace.
00:54:09And the chemistry in this shoot?
00:54:10Oh, my God.
00:54:12It was off, off, off, off the chain.
00:54:14And who on earth is this stunning, faceless model with that sexy back?
00:54:20Ooh, yum, yum, yum, yum.
00:54:23I need more.
00:54:23I want more.
00:54:24I need so much more.
00:54:26I have literally been emailing Mr. Vincent Latour daily, trying to get the big reveal.
00:54:31Ahem.
00:54:32Dear Mr. Vincent Latour.
00:54:34Hey, hey, hey.
00:54:36You are the worst.
00:54:37I cannot stand you.
00:54:38And you are killing me with the suspense.
00:54:39Sincerely, legitimate.
00:54:41Now, the couple embodies the timeless quality of true love.
00:54:45And we are honored and proud of the positive feedback that this campaign has generated.
00:54:51Now, of course, we all know Mr. Vincent Latour is going to make so much mucho dinero off this
00:54:57campaign.
00:54:58But friends, fams, we are only one week away from the Battle Royale, the top model competition.
00:55:06And guess what?
00:55:07Mr. Vincent Latour is going to be a judge.
00:55:09So, I might just have to flutter on over to him and ask him in person who this sexy back
00:55:14is.
00:55:16Because guess what, fans?
00:55:18That's right.
00:55:19Yours truly has been tapped by the network to host the top model competition.
00:55:26Yes!
00:55:26Oh, my God.
00:55:28Oh, if you like me, you really do like me.
00:55:31You really like me.
00:55:32Yes, you do.
00:55:39Who the fuck is this guy?
00:55:41I did everything in my power to make sure the male model would not show up so Claire would
00:55:44fall on her face.
00:55:45She always just lands on her feet.
00:55:50Looks like she's landing more than just on her feet.
00:55:54On a kitchen counter.
00:55:56In a hallway.
00:55:58On the stairs.
00:56:00Against a shower wall.
00:56:01Ava, get your mind out the gutter.
00:56:03That's not what you were telling me last night.
00:56:05No, we're talking about Claire here.
00:56:07She's not like you.
00:56:10Okay.
00:56:12Claire, she's such a saint, huh?
00:56:14The Vestal Virgin.
00:56:16If she's so special, then why didn't you knock her up instead?
00:56:21Oh, wait.
00:56:21I know why.
00:56:22Because Claire didn't like you that much.
00:56:25And now that she's with a guy that she actually likes, you can't handle it, can you?
00:56:33I don't think so.
00:56:35I'm not some meek bitch that's going to stand for your shit.
00:56:39I am the only one that's going to make sure that Claire doesn't win top model from inside
00:56:43the competition.
00:56:44Don't get too full of yourself, Ava.
00:56:46You're not the only one.
00:56:48Who else do you have in your pocket?
00:56:50What aren't you telling me?
00:56:52Just stick to your plan to sabotage Claire.
00:56:55I'll handle mine.
00:56:57Fine.
00:56:58You keep your secrets.
00:57:00I'll keep mine.
00:57:01We need to meet.
00:57:08It's too dangerous.
00:57:10The usual spot.
00:57:12Room 201.
00:57:13I'll be there.
00:57:19Hey, no peeking.
00:57:21Just like a little kid.
00:57:23It's a surprise.
00:57:25Just a few more steps.
00:57:27Shouldn't you be swamped with work?
00:57:29Work and wait.
00:57:30You are my priority.
00:57:39You need the perfect armor for combat.
00:57:45That's such a guy thing to say.
00:57:48It's a modeling competition, not war.
00:57:50Make no mistake, Claire.
00:57:52It is war.
00:57:53And I'll be there for you.
00:57:56Oh, did I forget to mention Pinnacle is the network televising the event?
00:58:00You definitely did not mention that, no?
00:58:04I'm a wife, Claire.
00:58:06A witness of the world.
00:58:07You should choose your words more carefully.
00:58:21I don't take well to threats.
00:58:24Well, you should have thought about that before you failed so miserably.
00:58:29Let's not forget.
00:58:32I own you.
00:58:33I'll admit, Claire being nominated to top model does put an unexpected wrinkle in our-
00:58:41Wrinkle?
00:58:41You were supposed to end this modeling nonsense, not launch her into the stratosphere.
00:58:47Your granddaughter hasn't won yet.
00:58:48And if you play your part, Claire will walk down that runway and crash and burn.
00:59:00Start talking.
00:59:04Here's what we do.
00:59:05I cannot wait to knock off that old battle axe.
00:59:17Hmm.
00:59:18Oh, fall in the shower.
00:59:21A mix of medication.
00:59:22All right, focus, Dylan.
00:59:25That will happen after you marry Claire.
00:59:28Now, I need you to go visit Bruno Lundy.
00:59:32Make sure he knows he won't be a judge this year.
00:59:37Convince him it's worth his while.
00:59:39And that old bat?
00:59:41You think she's up for it?
00:59:42She'll do it.
00:59:43Grace Winthrop has controlled that family for 50 years.
00:59:50No one has even stood up to her.
00:59:53Except Claire.
00:59:55She doesn't just want Claire back in the fold.
00:59:57She wants Claire under her thumb.
01:00:06Just hold tight, Cap, and I'll let you know after I speak with Claire.
01:00:13Morning, puppy.
01:00:16I need you to sit down.
01:00:19What's wrong, Christian?
01:00:20You're scaring me.
01:00:22The head of production at Pinnacle noticed a judge change in the competition.
01:00:26Really an easy way to say this, Claire.
01:00:29Your grandmother's going to be one of the judges.
01:00:31What?
01:00:33That's not possible.
01:00:35She would never...
01:00:36There's been a mistake.
01:00:37She despises modeling.
01:00:38She hates that I became one.
01:00:40Why would she do this?
01:00:43My own grandmother is going to vote against me.
01:00:56I can't escape her.
01:00:58This isn't the first time your grandmother's tried to destroy your career, Claire.
01:01:03I had investigators looking at Dylan and Miranda.
01:01:06What do they have to do with this?
01:01:07Two years ago, Maxwell Holdings was on the verge of bankruptcy from a series of bad investments
01:01:14and poorly timed expansions.
01:01:16Muse and all of its subsidiaries were on the chopping block.
01:01:19Then, they received an influx of cash from a new, silent partner.
01:01:25Winthrop Limited.
01:01:26Yes.
01:01:27The terms of the deal were that Dylan and Miranda were to do everything in their power to derail
01:01:32the future of a promising young model.
01:01:35You, Claire.
01:01:37So, all the rumors that I was on drugs, incompetent, unstable, my own grandmother was behind all
01:01:45of it.
01:01:46Yeah, but you were more stubborn than they calculated.
01:01:49You never gave up, Claire.
01:01:50I saw her manage everyone in my family.
01:01:54My own parents were like sycophantic puppets in her grasp, but I never thought she'd go to
01:01:59such lengths to control me.
01:02:00It's like she doesn't see me as a real person, with needs and fears and dreams.
01:02:06That's her loss, Claire.
01:02:08I wonder if marrying Dylan was a part of her plan.
01:02:13I mean, she's tried to marry me off before.
01:02:16Then you must meet my granddaughter, Claire.
01:02:20There she is.
01:02:21Okay, about that.
01:02:30About that.
01:02:31As if I'd marry someone she chose.
01:02:34Have you found anyone special?
01:02:36Then you must meet my granddaughter, Claire.
01:02:42I don't believe that your grandmother would consider Dylan for you.
01:02:46That has Miranda Maxwell written all over it.
01:02:48Your grandmother never technically disinherited you.
01:02:52As her sole surviving heir, Dylan stood to come in a billionth after marrying you.
01:02:56Yeah, but my grandmother's still alive.
01:02:59Yes, there is that.
01:03:04I just want a fair competition, where I win or lose on my own merits.
01:03:09Not because the deck is stacked against me.
01:03:12Your grandmother's just one judge.
01:03:14There are three others.
01:03:18Claire, one more.
01:03:40One more, one more.
01:03:40Claire, Claire, right here.
01:03:42Claire, who's taking home the top title tonight?
01:03:44You or Eva Bennett?
01:03:45Let's not get ahead of ourselves here.
01:03:48There are ten models in this competition who got here through hard work and talent.
01:03:52This is a night to celebrate all of us.
01:03:54A time to honor...
01:04:01I can't escape her.
01:04:03This isn't the first time your grandmother's tried to destroy your career.
01:04:08That's all, folks.
01:04:09Ms. Vaughn has a big night ahead of her.
01:04:11Claire, how do you know Christian Cross?
01:04:13I think I'm going to be sick.
01:04:18I didn't expect it to be that hard, seeing her like this.
01:04:22Okay, hang tight, Claire.
01:04:23Uh, Gavin, help her.
01:04:24I'll go get her a wet towel.
01:04:27You want a water or something?
01:04:28Yes, thank you.
01:04:32Let's try to relax.
01:04:33Check and see if anyone's inside, Simon.
01:04:56Alright, post is clear.
01:04:57I've got to be back at the judging table in five minutes, so we've got to be quick.
01:05:03Then shut up and get busy.
01:05:06Gross.
01:05:07Yuck.
01:05:08Not again.
01:05:11Eva.
01:05:11Eva, you saucy minks.
01:05:13You're killing me.
01:05:15Show me sexy.
01:05:17That belly of yours.
01:05:18Oh, so yummy.
01:05:20With my baby.
01:05:21Come to papa.
01:05:22Holy shit.
01:05:24No freaking way.
01:05:40Hey, Christian.
01:05:44You will not believe what Eva's been up to.
01:05:47Listening?
01:05:47Not now.
01:05:50I don't want to distract Claire, but quite a bombshell.
01:05:55I can barely contain my excitement.
01:05:59Where are you sitting?
01:06:01Behind the judges.
01:06:02First row.
01:06:04Hey.
01:06:05Wifey.
01:06:06You alright?
01:06:07Sure, hubby.
01:06:08The last remaining member of my family is here to ruin me.
01:06:11But I'm doing awesome.
01:06:13Breathe, Claire.
01:06:14You got this.
01:06:15If it gets to be too much, just find me in the crowd.

01:06:38Now, let's get to the giants of fashion and glamour.
01:06:42We'll be judging tonight's super model finalists.
01:06:45First, in the world of jewelry, the legend whose styles adorn the stars, Vincent Latour.
01:06:56Next, he is the visionary behind so many iconic faces in the industry, Simon Blackwell of Blackwell Modeling 10.
01:07:04Our third judge is Kiko Watanabe, actress extraordinaire under the Pinnacle Network banner.
01:07:12And last, and by no means least, she is our substitute judge who stepped in for Bruno Lundy after his unfortunate fall down a staircase.
01:07:20Our prayers are with you, Bruno, as you get through this coma.
01:07:23The one, the only, Grace Winthrop, of Winthrop Limited Day, the seven-generation dynasty of department stores.
01:07:32Thanks.
01:07:43Fuck it in, Mama.
01:07:44We're almost there.
01:07:45Sit with Felix tighter.
01:07:49A masterpiece.
01:07:50Not yet.
01:07:51We have other plans tonight, remember?
01:07:53Yeah.
01:07:53Leave it to me, your highness.
01:08:01Your baby's got you.
01:08:13Ow!
01:08:13What are you doing?
01:08:14You brute.
01:08:15I bent down to pick up my name tag.
01:08:18Are you security or shall I call security?
01:08:20Just get out of here.
01:08:21Oops.
01:08:27Move!
01:08:29May the best bitch win, bitch.
01:08:33Don't listen to her.
01:08:37Next up is Ava Bennett, our reigning top contestant for the past three years.
01:08:41She slays harder than Santa, so watch out for those reindeer.
01:08:51Break a leg, Claire Bearer.
01:09:20Move!
01:09:22Move up!
01:09:23Idiotas, we got this.
01:09:24Next up is Claire Duvall, whose meteoric rise in the industry has caught everyone off-guard.
01:09:29You heard me?
01:09:30I'm just kidding.
01:09:31Next up is Claire Duvall, whose meteoric rise in the industry has caught everyone off-guard.
01:09:37I'm just kidding.
01:09:49Whoa!
01:09:49What's that one?
01:09:52Come on, my love.
01:10:16Rise up and show them who you are.
01:10:22Your girl's career imploded before it even took off.
01:10:34But you're making a fool of yourself.
01:10:37The days of pretending to be a model, they're over, Claire.
01:10:41Ava is our top billing model.
01:10:43And you, Claire.
01:10:46And never really took off.
01:10:48You've lost everything.
01:10:50And you just don't know it yet.
01:10:52Come on, my love.
01:10:56Rise up and show them who you are.
01:11:00From now on, I'll forge my own path and make my own name.
01:11:05I will forge my own path and make my own name.
01:11:08I'll see you next.
01:11:13Bye.
01:11:13Bye.
01:11:17Bye.
01:11:29Bye.
01:11:29Bye.
01:11:30Bye.
01:12:31Way to go, Claire.
01:12:32You slay car.
01:12:33And now the moment you've all been waiting for.
01:12:51Oh my god.
01:12:56Folks, we've just had a glitch in the Matrix.
01:12:58Something that has never happened in the 23 years of top model competition.
01:13:03A tie between Ava Bennett and Claire Duvall.
01:13:05What?
01:13:14Seriously?
01:13:15Clearly Latour had something going on with Claire.
01:13:19Really, Ava?
01:13:20Because last I checked, you and Judge Simon Blackwell have been getting a little too cozy and...
01:13:25And whoops!
01:13:26There's a mini Blackwell on the way.
01:13:28Yep, she's expecting his baby!
01:13:31His baby?
01:13:33No, that's my baby!
01:13:36Hey, easy.
01:13:37Relax, man.
01:13:38Relax.
01:13:38Relax!
01:13:39Get a grip, both of you!
01:13:44Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:13:46Let's not turn this into a daytime drama, okay, people?
01:13:48We are here to crown a winner, which means we need a decisive vote.
01:13:53Top model competition rules state that in the event of a tie, we will have an independent third party determine who has won.
01:13:59So, we are now bringing out the big guns.
01:14:02Christian Cross, CEO of Pinnacle Entertainment, you're up, sir.
01:14:14Mr. Cross, when I'll cast the tie-breaking vote.
01:14:19So, who will be the 23rd winner of the top model competition?
01:14:23There's only one person who embodies the grace, character, and beauty of a top model.
01:14:37And that is Claire Duvall.
01:14:47But I have a conflict of interest, because Claire Duvall is not just a top model contestant.
01:14:53She's also my wife, Claire Duvall-Cross.
01:15:11Seriously? This is so unfair!
01:15:13Of course she gets him, and all I have is...
01:15:23She was sleeping with him while she was with me.
01:15:27How dare she?
01:15:28Clue in, Dylan.
01:15:29We need to do damage control.
01:15:31Grace Winthrop could pull our whole loan after this.
01:15:34We could lose everything.
01:15:36Detective, these two right here.
01:15:38What?
01:15:38Miranda Maxwell, Dylan Maxwell, you're both under arrest for conspiracy and commit murder.
01:15:42No, this is a mistake.
01:15:44Get your hands off me!
01:15:46Totally epic.
01:15:54Nicely done, my boy.
01:15:57What are you talking about?
01:15:59Are you going to tell her, Christian, or am I?
01:16:03Tell me what?
01:16:05See that man there?
01:16:06The one that's standing next to you?
01:16:08The one you've wed?
01:16:09He was my choice for you.
01:16:11I set you up with him five years ago.
01:16:18To think, Claire, all those years of defying me, and you ended up exactly where I wanted you.
01:16:28Is this true?
01:16:33Is this true?
01:16:37Yes.
01:16:38Okay, that day outside the courthouse, that wasn't a setup.
01:16:43Then why hide the connection to my grandmother?
01:16:45Why the lies?
01:16:46Because I knew how bad it looked, especially after Maxwell tried to use you.
01:16:50How can I believe you?
01:16:52Because we're meant to be together.
01:16:56Because we're meant to be together.
01:17:00I've never seen a mom come on the stage like you did up there.
01:17:03You're a nobody.
01:17:04You're not a nobody.
01:17:06I want to take their eyes off of you.
01:17:13These last five years, I've had such bad luck.
01:17:16But since Christian came into my life, I think my luck has finally changed.
01:17:20This is real for me.
01:17:34Promise we'll never forget that.
01:17:37I promise.
01:17:41I promise.
01:17:44Whatever it is, fate, luck, whatever you want to call it, Christian, I'm all in.
01:17:50I'll wash my hands of both of you.
01:18:03I'll wash my hands of both of you.
01:18:03Are you ready to meet my family?
01:18:16Hey fans, Reggie here.
01:18:22Big love to Bruno Lundy, who is recovering from his coma.
01:18:25This is nuts!
01:18:26Bruno just got out of his coma!
01:18:28How can he remember his name?
01:18:30He can't even remember mine!
01:18:32Shut up, Dylan.
01:18:33Shut up, Dylan!
01:18:34Shut up, Dylan!
01:18:35I want my lawyer!
01:18:37Now!
01:18:38Meanwhile, Ava V has quit modeling
01:18:40to focus on becoming a full-time mother.
01:18:42Yeah, couldn't even say that with a straight face.
01:18:45We all know what she's doing for money, don't we?
01:18:49Shut up, baby!
01:18:52Now, let's get to the real big news.
01:18:54The crosses are expecting...
01:18:57That's right, you heard it here first.
01:18:59Claire D and Christian Cross are expecting a little mini-cross!
01:19:03I'm so excited!
01:19:09So, you can expect it to be...
01:19:11Epic!
