00:00:00This is me.
00:00:02We're about to get married today.
00:00:04But behind what seems like a beautiful love story
00:00:07lies a heartbreaking truth of how I was forced to sacrifice everything to save my brother's life.
00:00:13My apologies for being late.
00:00:16I'm Henry.
00:00:18Your future husband.
00:00:20But let me take you back a few days to where it all began.
00:00:24Miss Wood, we need to discuss the outstanding payments.
00:00:27The hospital has been very patient with you.
00:00:29I just need more time.
00:00:31I'm afraid your brother doesn't have that much more time.
00:00:34$60,000?
00:00:41Your father cannot afford to throw money at every sob story.
00:00:46It's your son.
00:00:47My brother is going to die.
00:00:49You can at least release the trust fund.
00:00:51I'm sorry.
00:00:52You can only access it once you're married.
00:00:54Are you seriously considering helping your former family?
00:00:59Every dollar you give to her is one less for our lovely Molly.
00:01:03Unless you marry Henry Wayne instead of Molly,
00:01:06and then your father can release your fund.
00:01:09What?
00:01:09I don't want to get married.
00:01:12And who is Henry Wayne?
00:01:13He's our business partner and...
00:01:15A low-life criminal.
00:01:17I heard he served time for blackmail.
00:01:20And he slept with every woman in town.
00:01:24Sounds like a match made in heaven to me.
00:01:27Actually, that's not a bad idea.
00:01:31You marry him, and I can release the trust fund.
00:01:37Do it.
00:01:39How bad can he be?
00:01:44Meet my future husband.
00:01:46The man with the darkest reputation in the city.
00:01:49Let's go to the back phone.
00:01:50I want to show you something.
00:01:51I'd love that.
00:01:52I'd love that.
00:01:54But first, I need you to do me a favor.
00:01:56I'd do anything for you, Henry.
00:01:58It's true.
00:01:59This bimbo will do whatever he tells her to.
00:02:02Especially if it's criminal or sexual.
00:02:06You see, that's the word on Henry Wayne.
00:02:09A gentleman by daylight.
00:02:11A predator by moonlight.
00:02:13He doesn't just close deals.
00:02:15He crushes them.
00:02:21Make sure Larry understands that if he doesn't sign the agreement, transfer the shares to me by tomorrow,
00:02:27I'll send these photos to his loving wife.
00:02:30Got it.
00:02:31Once he transfers his shares over to you, we can formally announce your takeover of the company at the next board meeting.
00:02:36That's the man I'm marrying.
00:02:39Shit.
00:02:40So here we are, standing on the edge of forever.
00:02:44Our wedding day.
00:02:45I can't wait to see Ashley's face when she finds out that her trust fund is now a limited edition Gucci bag.
00:02:54And thank God you do not have to marry that ugly criminal of a husband.
00:02:58You do understand I had no choice, right?
00:03:01You marry this loser or your poor brother dies.
00:03:06Do you understand?
00:03:08I do.
00:03:10And just like that, we're back.
00:03:12Still handsome.
00:03:13Still me.
00:03:15And still tangled up with my wicked step family.
00:03:18A perfect recipe for a beautiful, chaotic disaster.
00:03:21What is that?
00:03:23He's delicious.
00:03:27My apologies for being late.
00:03:30I'm Henry.
00:03:31Your future husband.
00:03:34What the fuck, Mom?
00:03:36Totally what the fuck.
00:03:38We're gathered here today to join Ashley.
00:03:41Wait, you're not Molly?
00:03:43No, I'm her stepsister.
00:03:46That's Molly.
00:03:47I see.
00:03:48Okay, great.
00:03:50I got the prettier sister.
00:03:51What the fuck?
00:03:53We are gathered here today.
00:03:55So, I bet you're thrilled to be tying a knot with the criminal and the black sheep of the disgraced Wayne family.
00:04:00Seeing as I'm the black sheep of my own family, I'm not sure there's much I could learn from you.
00:04:06May I continue?
00:04:07By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:04:13You may kiss the bride.
00:04:18Henry.
00:04:20We just met.
00:04:22And what better way to get to know each other?
00:04:23I'll see you later.
00:04:36No.
00:04:37We're married now.
00:04:39You're moving in with me.
00:04:39Hey, this is you.
00:04:52I'll sleep on the couch.
00:04:56Look, Ashley.
00:04:58I need you to understand that us living together, it's not optional.
00:05:02For this marriage to look real, we have to sell it.
00:05:05Everyone's watching, especially my family.
00:05:07You marry him, and I can release the trust fund.
00:05:13He may seem kind, but after everything I've heard about him, I know I have to be careful and protect myself.
00:05:21She's so sexy.
00:05:23But I have to keep in mind, it's strictly business.
00:05:25Do not fall for her.
00:05:28But no sex.
00:05:29Yeah, sure.
00:05:30No sex.
00:05:35And these?
00:05:37Well, those are for fun.
00:05:55I didn't know you were into yoga.
00:05:57Yeah, I'm full of surprises.
00:05:58I should get ready for work.
00:06:17Work?
00:06:18With a family like yours?
00:06:20If only he knew.
00:06:21We need to discuss the outstanding payments.
00:06:24The hospital has been very patient with you.
00:06:26I just need more time.
00:06:27I'm afraid your brother doesn't have that much more time.
00:06:32I like to keep busy.
00:06:33Okay, so I need to know what name you want to put on the donation for the Park Foundation for young cancer patients?
00:06:53No names.
00:06:54Just keep it anonymous.
00:06:55Got it.
00:06:55Anything else?
00:06:56Yeah, there's something off about Ashley's family.
00:06:58Keep an eye on her for now.
00:06:59Aren't you afraid she might discover your secret identity?
00:07:02Don't worry.
00:07:03You pay me to worry, boss.
00:07:06But understand, if she becomes a liability, we'll have to take care of her.
00:07:10Hurry up, Ashley.
00:07:21Come here.
00:07:23I need you to dress this on the mannequin by the window.
00:07:26Okay, Kate.
00:07:27No problem.
00:07:28Carefully.
00:07:29This is a design gown.
00:07:30It costs more than what you make in a year.
00:07:32Well, actually, five years.
00:07:34Five years.
00:07:34Five years.
00:07:40Oh, God.
00:07:50What the hell have you done?
00:07:52I said carefully.
00:07:53Are you deaf?
00:07:54I don't know what happened.
00:07:55I'll speak real slow so you understand me this time.
00:07:59You are fired.
00:08:02And you'll have to pay for the repair.
00:08:04That's $10,000.
00:08:05Kate, I don't have the money for that.
00:08:07No problem.
00:08:08No problem.
00:08:08No problem.
00:08:08No problem.
00:08:10Hi.
00:08:11Police?
00:08:13I have a problem.
00:08:16Police?
00:08:17Hi.
00:08:18I have a problem.
00:08:19One of my workers intentionally vandalized my merchandise in the store,
00:08:23and now she's trying to get away without paying for the damage.
00:08:28Good morning.
00:08:31I'll call you back.
00:08:33Oh, hi.
00:08:34Can I help you?
00:08:35Oh, my God.
00:08:36You look like that philanthropist, Richard, Richard something.
00:08:40He disappeared a few years ago.
00:08:43I'm Henry Wayne.
00:08:44I don't know who Richard something is, but I'd like to get a dress for my wife.
00:08:48Oh, absolutely, sir.
00:08:50Get your sorry ass in the back and stay there.
00:08:58Hello, wife.
00:08:58I'd like to see this dress.
00:09:03This dress is $50,000.
00:09:06Why would a dress be $50,000?
00:09:08Because it's a Sofia Lucina design.
00:09:11Okay.
00:09:12So get my beautiful wife the Sofia Lucini design dress.
00:09:17No, Henry.
00:09:19You don't have to buy me anything.
00:09:21Just try it on for me.
00:09:22You look amazing.
00:09:35Okay.
00:09:36Fun's over.
00:09:37You can't possibly afford the $50,000 price tag,
00:09:40especially not for your wife,
00:09:42who already owes me $30,000.
00:09:45Keep the change.
00:09:52There you go.
00:09:57Thanks, Henry.
00:09:59I don't like you spending so much money on me, though.
00:10:02Especially when we're both broke.
00:10:05Broke or not,
00:10:07you deserve to look great.
00:10:12I have some job interviews lined up.
00:10:15I'll be sure to pay you back.
00:10:16I can't fall for his game.
00:10:21I should stop this.
00:10:30This is a final notice, Ashley.
00:10:32If the bills aren't paid by this Friday,
00:10:34we will have to send Michael home.
00:10:38What's going on?
00:10:39Nothing.
00:10:40I just...
00:10:41I'm not feeling well.
00:10:42Can you step out, please?
00:10:43I need to go home.
00:10:44Why?
00:10:45Tell me.
00:10:45No, it's...
00:10:46It's nothing.
00:10:48I just...
00:10:49I have somewhere to be.
00:10:51Can you please step out?
00:10:53Yeah.
00:10:54Dad promised to release the trust funds.
00:10:57I can't believe he turned his back on his own son like this.
00:11:09Where's my father?
00:11:11I have no idea.
00:11:13You promised me that once the wedding was over,
00:11:16you would release my trust fund.
00:11:17So where is it?
00:11:19Did I?
00:11:20That's right.
00:11:21Oh, guess what?
00:11:23We lied.
00:11:26And you know what?
00:11:27You're lucky your father is still alive,
00:11:29or you wouldn't even be able to step foot in this house.
00:11:32You're so-called trust fund is imaginary loser.
00:11:38We spent that ages ago.
00:11:44One day, my father will realize he's surrounded by two monsters.
00:11:48Oh, no, he won't, pumpkin.
00:11:51Because your father is stupid and pathetic, just like you and your little sicko brother.
00:11:56And all of this will be ours really soon.
00:12:00You're going to regret this.
00:12:02And that's a promise.
00:12:06You stole my husband!
00:12:09And now you're trying to steal my dad's money!
00:12:13You bitch!
00:12:14I'll kill you!
00:12:15What have you done?
00:12:30Oopsie.
00:12:31Is she dead?
00:12:32I hope so.
00:12:34You are so stupid.
00:12:37You killed her.
00:12:38You won't see a cent of your father's money.
00:12:47That's a promise.
00:12:49Now fuck off!
00:12:59Hope you're hungry.
00:13:06Guess not.
00:13:08Are you okay?
00:13:12Yeah, I'm fine.
00:13:14Did someone hurt you?
00:13:17No.
00:13:18Really, it's...
00:13:19I'm fine.
00:13:20I just ran into a rose bush.
00:13:22A rose bush?
00:13:24I'm okay.
00:13:25Really.
00:13:28All right.
00:13:28I need you to track Ashley's phone.
00:13:31Find out where she's been today.
00:13:33I need constant location tracking on her 24-7.
00:13:35So let me guess.
00:13:39You were walking down the street and then suddenly out of nowhere, a terrible rose bush jumped out and demanded a kiss from you.
00:13:46I'll kill you!
00:13:47And you being a decent girl who doesn't just hand out any kiss to a rose bush on the street, refused it.
00:13:55And the terrible obnoxious rose bush attacked you with no witnesses.
00:14:00Is that correct?
00:14:01Is that an accurate description of what happened to today?
00:14:03I knew it.
00:14:07Wow.
00:14:08You're good.
00:14:10And where did you learn to cook like this?
00:14:13I remember a few recipes my mom taught me.
00:14:15May she rest in peace.
00:14:16Oh, I'm sorry.
00:14:20When did she pass?
00:14:21A long time ago.
00:14:23When I was 10.
00:14:25My mom passed away when I was 12.
00:14:28And my dad married a...
00:14:31Anyway.
00:14:34It's really impressive that you remember some of her recipes.
00:14:37Yeah.
00:14:38I do miss her cooking.
00:14:40She was a great cook.
00:14:41I'm sorry.
00:14:47Can I take this call?
00:14:48It's urgent.
00:14:49Yeah, sure.
00:14:50I'll give you a minute.
00:14:55Ashley visited her father's house today.
00:14:57Make sure her father's brand takes a huge hit.
00:15:00It's time to teach that family a lesson they won't forget.
00:15:11Hello?
00:15:14Ashley.
00:15:15Oh, Ashley.
00:15:16Here is the news.
00:15:19A chance to shine to share your goods.
00:15:21So just to impress, let your light shine through.
00:15:23Oh, Ashley.
00:15:24Have I got a job just for you?
00:15:27I'm sorry.
00:15:28Who is this?
00:15:29Hey.
00:15:29Yes, it is Justin, a.k.a.
00:15:32Jay Zizzle from BQ Fashion.
00:15:34How is it going?
00:15:36Honestly, I thought I'd try a different approach to inviting a candidate for a job interview.
00:15:41Something to break the ice.
00:15:44Ice baby, you know?
00:15:46But seriously, do you think I have a future in wrapping?
00:15:48What do you think?
00:15:49I'm sorry.
00:15:50Did you say an interview at BQ Fashion?
00:15:52Oh, yes.
00:15:53Yes, I did.
00:15:54I sure did.
00:15:55In about two hours.
00:15:56Can you make it?
00:15:57Because if you can't...
00:15:58I'll be there.
00:15:59I mean, sure.
00:16:02I'll be there.
00:16:03All right.
00:16:03Great.
00:16:03Awesome.
00:16:04Wiccawicca awesome.
00:16:06Hey, I think you know somebody that works here.
00:16:11Oh, sorry.
00:16:14I just came to see if you wanted a cup of coffee.
00:16:17Yeah, sure.
00:16:18That'd be great.
00:16:19All right.
00:16:21Hey, guess what?
00:16:23What?
00:16:23I got an interview at BQ Fashion.
00:16:26It's my dream.
00:16:27Dream, huh?
00:16:29Yeah, I should get dressed.
00:16:37You smell nice.
00:16:39I'm going to be late for my interview.
00:16:45Yeah.
00:16:45Ashley!
00:17:00It is so good to see you.
00:17:02Mira, likewise.
00:17:05I'm sorry.
00:17:06I thought I was meeting Justin.
00:17:07My boyfriend, Justin, told me that you were coming in today.
00:17:12And I insisted on meeting you myself.
00:17:14It's been such a long time.
00:17:16We must catch up.
00:17:23Well, thank you for coming in today.
00:17:25These are garbage.
00:17:26You didn't even look at my designs.
00:17:29You know I have experience and that I've always been a top student.
00:17:33How could I forget?
00:17:35But times have changed.
00:17:36Obviously, there's a reason why I'm a director and you're still a junior.
00:17:40Give it a rest.
00:17:40Hey, but I know of an opening for a fry cook at McDonald's down the street.
00:17:47This whole interview felt like a trap.
00:17:54I thought this was it.
00:17:55Now I'm back to square one.
00:17:57I need money.
00:18:03Oh my gosh.
00:18:04I cannot believe you own this dress.
00:18:06If it were mine, I would sell it for a fortune.
00:18:08Do you know how many people would kill to have an original designer gown?
00:18:11Why didn't I think of this sooner?
00:18:15I'll sell the dress Henry bought me and then pay off the debt.
00:18:21Hey, loser.
00:18:22This isn't the welfare office.
00:18:24Get your sorry self out.
00:18:25Hopefully, the meeting with Larry goes well.
00:18:54Well, he's the one obstacle standing between you and full control of the company.
00:18:59Henry.
00:19:00One second.
00:19:01Is that Ashley you're checking on?
00:19:03Do I need to remind you that the wedding is strictly business?
00:19:06Just one step towards you getting full control of the company.
00:19:09I pray you're not falling for her or anything.
00:19:12No, I'm not.
00:19:14Good.
00:19:14Because if she finds out your true identity, we're screwed.
00:19:19Look.
00:19:20I understand.
00:19:21Something's off.
00:19:22She was supposed to return home after the job interview.
00:19:26But now she's on the other side of town.
00:19:29Skid Row.
00:19:31Where is she going?
00:19:32I'm sorry for the interruption.
00:19:38I'm looking for Margaret.
00:19:40Sure you are.
00:19:41I'm Margaret.
00:19:43So, where did you get the money to buy a $50,000 dress, huh?
00:19:48Perhaps you stole it.
00:19:49No, no, it's not stolen.
00:19:50My husband bought it for me.
00:19:53Keep the change.
00:19:54Keep the change.
00:19:54Well, are you lucky?
00:20:00Or should I say, he the lucky one?
00:20:05I'm gonna go.
00:20:07Not so fast, sweetheart.
00:20:10Ragazzi, abbiamo degli aspetti.
00:20:19Please, don't hurt me.
00:20:23Please.
00:20:24Don't hurt me.
00:20:25I have to get out of here with the dress.
00:20:27It's my only chance to save my brother.
00:20:43Don't you ever touch my wife again.
00:20:45Who's your boss?
00:20:48Who do you work for?
00:20:49Giovanni Matrizzi, okay?
00:20:52And when Giovanni finds out about this,
00:20:53it's gonna be the end of you.
00:20:55You hear me?
00:20:59Are you okay?
00:21:01Yeah.
00:21:08Who do you work for?
00:21:10Giovanni Matrizzi, okay?
00:21:12It's gonna be the end of you.
00:21:13You hear me?
00:21:15Are you okay?
00:21:16I don't understand why you want to sell the dress I bought you.
00:21:33I'm so sorry, Henry.
00:21:35I didn't want to, but I needed the money to pay my debts.
00:21:41It's okay.
00:21:43The next time I want you to come to me if you need help.
00:21:45We're married now.
00:21:46Yeah.
00:21:47Yeah.
00:21:48Yeah, you're right.
00:21:50I should have told you.
00:21:51I was just scared, I guess.
00:22:00What am I doing?
00:22:02This is a bad idea.
00:22:03Oh, yeah.
00:22:07Is there something wrong?
00:22:10Sorry, I'm just feeling a little bit overwhelmed from tonight, I guess.
00:22:15You know?
00:22:17Ashley, I can give you money.
00:22:19No.
00:22:21No, I appreciate it, but I can't accept it.
00:22:24Since my mom passed away and my dad remarried, I don't trust anyone, and I don't want to depend
00:22:35on anyone.
00:22:36But you're my wife now.
00:22:38It's my job to protect you, to protect our family.
00:22:54I'm sorry.
00:23:00I can't do this.
00:23:01I can't stand the thought of another broken heart.
00:23:05It's okay.
00:23:06Take your time.
00:23:16Please.
00:23:16You can't send him home.
00:23:18I'm doing everything I can to get the money.
00:23:20Marry Henry Wayne instead of Molly.
00:23:23And I can release.
00:23:24The trust fund.
00:23:26Do it.
00:23:26I'll sell the dress Henry bought me, and then pay off the debt.
00:23:31Ashley, the hospital cannot continue treatment without a payment.
00:23:36No, no, no.
00:23:37Wait, wait, wait.
00:23:37Hold on.
00:23:38Our father abandoned us.
00:23:39I'm all Michael has.
00:23:41Okay.
00:23:41For now, he can stay in the room, but he will not receive any additional treatments until the
00:23:47bills have been settled.
00:23:48However, if he does not receive the next session, within two days...
00:23:54It's as if he didn't receive the last one at all.
00:23:57It's going to set him back.
00:24:00And he's going to require additional treatments that could weaken his body, or something worse.
00:24:05Perfect timing, Ash.
00:24:20You have to talk to Dad.
00:24:22I'm literally going to die of four of them, unless I get some video games in here.
00:24:31Sure.
00:24:33I'll talk to him, okay?
00:24:35Don't worry.
00:24:35Just rest.
00:24:36What's going on?
00:24:41It's Ashley.
00:24:42She's at the hospital.
00:24:43What happened?
00:24:44She's fine.
00:24:46But there's something that you need to know.
00:24:54You son of a bitch!
00:24:55You don't know who you're messing with!
00:24:57This is going to end badly for you.
00:24:59You hear me?
00:24:59And when I'm done with you, I'm going to find that pretty little wife of yours and finish
00:25:03what I started.
00:25:05Nothing to say, huh?
00:25:07Come on.
00:25:08Untie me.
00:25:09And I'll beat the crap out of you!
00:25:14Giovanni?
00:25:15Thank God!
00:25:16This idiot thinks he's Batman.
00:25:18Let me go.
00:25:19I'll break his legs!
00:25:22You fool!
00:25:23Do you even know who this man is?
00:25:25The scumbag and his men crossed every line possible.
00:25:31And he didn't hesitate to lay his hands on my wife, either.
00:25:34I'm disappointed, Giovanni.
00:25:36This is unacceptable.
00:25:38I'll take care of this right now.
00:25:40Please!
00:25:41No!
00:25:43I didn't know!
00:25:44I didn't mean!
00:25:45You're right.
00:25:46Do you want to take care of it?
00:25:48No need to take care of him.
00:25:49I got a better idea.
00:25:51Whatever you say, Richard, you're the boss.
00:25:55Richard!
00:25:56Si, idiote!
00:25:58Giovanni, I didn't know!
00:26:00I swear!
00:26:09What is this?
00:26:10Where are we?
00:26:12Well, after I talk, I kept thinking how I could help.
00:26:15And then I remember something my mom always said.
00:26:17Change your place, change your luck.
00:26:20Maybe being in the heart of the fashion world will give you the spark and inspiration you need.
00:26:24Who's house is this?
00:26:27It's my uncle's.
00:26:28But him and his family just went on an extended vacation, so it's ours for now.
00:26:33Thank you, Henry.
00:26:36Since my mom passed, no one has believed in me or supported me like this.
00:26:41I promise I'll get a job soon.
00:26:43Will you just give me a minute?
00:27:03Thank you, Dr. Goldstein.
00:27:06Um, who made the payment?
00:27:07I see the payment was made by Sean Wood, your father.
00:27:21So, where were we?
00:27:23You thought of everything, didn't you?
00:27:41Turn around.
00:27:48You can turn around.
00:27:50You can turn around.
00:28:03You're perfect.
00:28:04You're perfect.
00:28:04All the ways that you make my heart sing
00:28:07I've got all these feelings
00:28:10But I'm saving this space in my heart
00:28:15For you
00:28:17I'm not helpless
00:28:30I'm just helping myself to you
00:28:33I'm not shattered
00:28:36I'm just shattering every doubt for you
00:28:39I'm not hopeless
00:28:41I'm just hoping you'll feel this too
00:28:44And every song I write for you
00:28:47I'll be back late tonight
00:28:57Don't wait up for me
00:28:59Or do
00:29:02Hey, Dad
00:29:09I just wanted to call
00:29:11And thank you for making the hospital payment
00:29:13I'm just so relieved
00:29:15That after everything
00:29:16You're still taking care of us
00:29:18Ashley
00:29:20I didn't pay your bills
00:29:22They said your name, Dad
00:29:24Look, Ash
00:29:25I don't know who told you that
00:29:27But I had nothing to do with it
00:29:31This is what you do behind my back
00:29:35After everything today that happened at the company
00:29:37What happened today?
00:29:40You nosy little brat
00:29:42Don't you meddle in things that don't concern you?
00:29:43Molly
00:29:53Do you remember that guy you dated for a while
00:29:56Helped us get into Ashley's trust fund?
00:29:58Big brain
00:29:59Small
00:30:00Do you think he can help us find out
00:30:04Who paid Ashley's bills?
00:30:12Hey, Tony
00:30:13It's Molly
00:30:14Come on, Michael
00:30:21You have to eat something
00:30:22No fucking way
00:30:24So how did your interview go?
00:30:28I might as well apply for a fry cook position at McDonald's
00:30:32I know you'll find the perfect job
00:30:35Any fashion brand would be super lucky to have you, dude
00:30:38Thanks, dude
00:30:40Hey, this is Josh from BQ Fashion
00:30:49I need to talk to you urgently
00:30:50What?
00:30:52What?
00:30:53Who is it?
00:30:55That was Justin from BQ Fashion
00:30:57He wants me to start tomorrow
00:30:59I knew it
00:31:00I'm so happy for you
00:31:02This is huge
00:31:04Mira must be furious
00:31:07Thank you for coming in today
00:31:09These are garbage
00:31:10I know of an opening
00:31:12For a fry cook at McDonald's down the street
00:31:14This is the best day ever
00:31:17Smells good
00:31:24It's the occasion
00:31:26I got the job at BQ Fashion
00:31:30And I paid off all my debts
00:31:32You were right
00:31:34This house brought me so much luck
00:31:36Thank you
00:31:37Look, Ashley
00:31:39How about your debt?
00:31:41Not now
00:31:41Let's eat before it gets cold
00:31:43Go sit
00:31:45What's happening to me
00:31:48Getting control of the company
00:31:50Is all I work for
00:31:52Now all I can think about is her
00:31:55Nothing good really ever happens to me
00:31:59This isn't real, Ashley
00:32:00This isn't real
00:32:02He's just using you
00:32:04How long do we have to stay married for?
00:32:08Why do you ask?
00:32:08This pretending
00:32:11It's just
00:32:12It's not for me
00:32:14I don't know how much longer
00:32:16I can keep it up
00:32:17Don't tell her your secret
00:32:18It's too risky
00:32:19This
00:32:21This game
00:32:22It's just
00:32:24It's not for me
00:32:26Ashley, it's not a game
00:32:27I enjoy being with you
00:32:29I don't want to get hurt, Henry
00:32:31I won't hurt you
00:32:33Dance with me
00:32:38I'm just madly in love with you
00:32:41I'm not broken
00:32:44I'm just breaking every rule for you
00:32:46I don't want you to feel uncomfortable
00:32:48If you want this to end, I'll understand
00:32:51I guess I can hang on for a little longer
00:32:54What am I doing?
00:32:56I have to tell her the truth
00:32:57And I could be alive for the rest of eternity
00:33:02Without ever exhausting
00:33:05All the ways that you make my heart sing
00:33:08I've got all these
00:33:10Wait
00:33:15Before we go on, there's something you need to know about me
00:33:18Aren't you afraid she might discover your secret identity?
00:33:21Don't worry
00:33:22But understand, if she becomes a liability
00:33:24We'll have to take care of her
00:33:27I was raised by my grandfather
00:33:29He was a stern man who believed in tough love
00:33:32And eventually I turned to the darker side of life
00:33:36And in response to my rebellious behavior
00:33:38He decided to disinherit me
00:33:40Leaving me with just enough for a modest existence
00:33:42But what he doesn't know
00:33:46I've since built multiple businesses
00:33:49And amassed billions
00:33:50However, to regain control of my family's company
00:33:54There was one critical step I had to take
00:33:57Marrying someone from the Wood family
00:33:59Ashley?
00:34:09What's new?
00:34:10The Park Foundation want their largest donor, you
00:34:13To attend their annual charity event
00:34:15Great
00:34:15With the inheritance situation wrapping up soon
00:34:18I think it's a good time to reveal your identity
00:34:20It could work in your favor
00:34:22You're right
00:34:23We should get it over with
00:34:24Get everything ready for the final stages
00:34:26Including the divorce paper
00:34:27Already done
00:34:28Great
00:34:29You do remember you only married Ashley
00:34:31In order to gain control of the company, right?
00:34:33Of course, why would I forget that?
00:34:35I don't know
00:34:35Why would you?
00:34:37It's not like that
00:34:38Okay, boss
00:34:39Whatever
00:34:40Good night, Ari
00:34:41I don't know who you slept with
00:34:55To land this job
00:34:56But I just want to make one thing clear
00:34:58You're being watched
00:35:00Very closely
00:35:01Your new assignment
00:35:05Sketches for 36 dresses
00:35:07I need them by Tuesday
00:35:09That's impossible
00:35:10Okay, then
00:35:12I'll just let Ari, the CEO of the company
00:35:15Know that you're unfit for the role
00:35:16Just as I expected
00:35:17I'll do it
00:35:19I look forward to watching you feel spectacularly
00:35:22How the hell am I going to finish all of this?
00:35:31Ah, we meet, finally
00:35:42Justin, hi
00:35:43Thank you so much for everything
00:35:45Just a piece of advice
00:35:47It's fast-paced and competitive here
00:35:49And if you don't meet the deadlines that are given to you
00:35:52You'll be kicked to the curb faster than a drunk at a Mormon wedding
00:35:56I'm confident in my abilities
00:35:59Great
00:35:59Great, great, great
00:36:01So
00:36:02The Park Foundation is hosting its big charity event
00:36:07And some of our designs will be auctioned off
00:36:09Including the historic gown designed by Nakamura in 1967
00:36:14Mira, she avoids these things
00:36:17She hates being reminded there are women prettier around
00:36:21I'd be, well, I'd be happy to take you instead
00:36:27See, this is a wonderful opportunity for you to meet the man in charge of this company
00:36:35You see, there are ways for you to advance within this company
00:36:43And, although you are new
00:36:45I think you have the qualities to move up to key positions very quickly
00:36:52So
00:36:55What do you say?
00:37:00Excuse me
00:37:01Ooh, playing hard to get
00:37:03Me lucky
00:37:04Okay
00:37:09So, uh, is that a no?
00:37:13Wake up, wake up
00:37:15Maybe it's the wrapping
00:37:18Hello?
00:37:22Sean didn't make the transfer
00:37:26But I found out who did
00:37:28Long day?
00:37:34Here, put your feet up
00:37:37And I'll give you a foot massage
00:37:39It was a lot more hectic than I thought it would be
00:37:47A lot more stressful
00:37:49Tell me
00:37:49I want a full detailed report
00:37:51Don't tell him everything
00:37:54He needs to understand that I'm strong and independent
00:37:57Have you heard of the Park Charity event?
00:37:59I was gonna ask you to be my plus one
00:38:02Um, yeah, I might have heard something
00:38:07The Park Foundation want their largest donor, you, to attend their annual charity event
00:38:11Great
00:38:11And I think it's a good time to reveal your identity
00:38:14You're right
00:38:15Well, it's a huge deal
00:38:18And I guess the biggest donor of the event is BQ Fashion's owner
00:38:24No one's ever met him
00:38:26Apparently he lives somewhere in the Middle East
00:38:29Probably a dirty old man surrounded by women half his age
00:38:34You never know
00:38:35Am I surprised?
00:38:37It could be charming
00:38:37Chiseled
00:38:39Good sense of humor
00:38:40I don't know
00:38:41You never know
00:38:42Ari, CEO BQ Fashion made the wire
00:38:46How does he even know your poor father's bastard of a daughter Ashley
00:38:51And why the hell would he pay her bills?
00:38:53I don't know
00:38:54But that bitch Ashley is up to something
00:38:58She has access to money
00:38:59And that money should be ours
00:39:02Do you think
00:39:04What?
00:39:05Spit it out!
00:39:07Did your cowardly husband forge Ari's name on the wire
00:39:12To cover up the fact that he still cares for his bastard daughter Ashley?
00:39:17That prick cannot keep anything from me
00:39:21And there is no way he has feelings for his loser daughter
00:39:24But there is one way to find out
00:39:28Mira, what are you doing here?
00:39:35These designs are extremely ugly
00:39:36You're going to need to start over
00:39:38And you're going to need to do it now
00:39:39Your deadline's in 24 hours
00:39:41That is, if you want to keep this job
00:39:44I need to see the CEO
00:40:02I'm sorry
00:40:04Only guests with appointments can see him
00:40:07Of course
00:40:09I'm Mrs. Rothford
00:40:13Mrs. Rothford is 90 years old
00:40:18Sure she is
00:40:21I know that
00:40:22I'm her granddaughter
00:40:25Right
00:40:26The CEO wants you to go to the sewing machines
00:40:36On the sixth floor
00:40:37To make these changes to this dress
00:40:39Here's a sketch
00:40:40Sure
00:40:42Do you think you could wear something
00:40:45Besides a potato sack
00:40:46When you come into work next time?
00:40:54What the?
00:40:55Once you're done
00:41:01Make sure that you go into the CEO's office
00:41:03And show him the dress
00:41:04Personally
00:41:05What are you up to?
00:41:20Well, just making sure Ashley
00:41:22Gets a nice little welcome party from Ari
00:41:24Or should I say
00:41:25A harsh farewell
00:41:27Oh
00:41:32What
00:41:33What are you doing here?
00:41:35I came to advise Ari on some business matters
00:41:37I was going to surprise you at your desk
00:41:39And take you out for lunch
00:41:40Okay
00:41:41Sure
00:41:42This is the dress that I redesigned for you
00:41:48What made you redesign this dress?
00:41:50Oh, um
00:41:52Mira brought me the dress and the sketch
00:41:55Did I
00:41:58Did I do something wrong?
00:42:00You just redesigned Nakamura's historic dress that we were going to auction off at the charity event?
00:42:06I'm so sorry
00:42:08I didn't mean to
00:42:09I honestly was just trying to
00:42:10I honestly was just trying to
00:42:12The park foundation is extremely disappointed that they will have to cancel this year's event for the first time in seven to eight years
00:42:24And that's because Ashley redesigned Nakamura's gown
00:42:28She did what?
00:42:31I did what you told me to do
00:42:33I don't know what you're talking about
00:42:35The CEO wants you to go to the sewing machines on the sixth floor to make these changes to this dress
00:42:40Here's the sketch
00:42:42Sure
00:42:44I told you we shouldn't have hired her
00:42:47I knew that she would be nothing but trouble
00:42:49It's a shame
00:42:50Nobody listened to me
00:42:51You told me to go to the sixth floor and redesign the dress
00:42:54I said no such thing
00:42:56I said specifically to take this dress to the sixth floor to find a safe place for it
00:43:01Wow
00:43:02This is going to ruin her pathetic career
00:43:05No one is going to hire you in this town after this
00:43:07This is the sketch that Mira gave me
00:43:10It's proof
00:43:11That's not my style
00:43:13She's right
00:43:14This is criminal, Ashley
00:43:16And I'm calling the police
00:43:17I warned you
00:43:24All about this
00:43:25You should all be apologizing to me
00:43:27For not trusting my judgment
00:43:29CEO wants you to go to the sewing machines on the sixth floor to make these changes to this dress
00:43:40Here's the sketch
00:43:41Well that's not real
00:43:43Somebody faked that with AI
00:43:45Mira, you're fired
00:43:47And before you leave
00:43:48You will fix this dress yourself
00:43:50Or I'll make sure you never work in this town again
00:43:53What?
00:43:54No, no, please
00:43:57Just give me another chance
00:43:58Justin
00:43:59Tell him
00:44:00What you did is incredibly irresponsible
00:44:03Yeah, Mira
00:44:04I heard the fry cook position at McDonald's is still open
00:44:07Well, I am so glad Ashley joined the company
00:44:18I believe she will make a stellar
00:44:21And Justin, we have some more interesting security camera footage
00:44:25You're fired as well
00:44:27Pack your things and leave
00:44:28Molly, what's going on?
00:44:36They're not letting me in
00:44:38Find a way
00:44:40I told you he's booked up for the entire month
00:44:55So you'll have to just wait your turn to see him
00:44:58Okay
00:44:59Oh, excuse me
00:45:03Would you mind stepping in my office?
00:45:05I just spilled some coffee on the floor
00:45:07Thank you
00:45:09It's right here
00:45:11I think you're going to have to use your hand to clean that up
00:45:18Henry?
00:45:20What is he doing here?
00:45:23All right
00:45:23I don't trust you to handle this without any mistakes
00:45:25We clear?
00:45:27It's Ari
00:45:27You okay?
00:45:35We just need to make sure that there are no loose ends, Richard
00:45:38Ashley can't find out about your plan for taking over the company
00:45:42We can't trust her
00:45:44If Sean finds out, we could lose everything we work for
00:45:48I don't think I can lie to her anymore
00:45:51You've been lying your whole life
00:45:54Henry is using a secret identity
00:46:00He's Richard
00:46:01What?
00:46:03Molly, you're overreacting again
00:46:06Stop with the theatrics
00:46:08I know what I heard
00:46:09Sure you did
00:46:10If we can find out who Richard is, this could be our ticket
00:46:15Excuse me, the ladies' room toilet is clogged and overflowing
00:46:20Could you please take care of it?
00:46:24Once you take control
00:46:31Ashley wants to stay out of your life
00:46:34Is that clear?
00:46:35It's just not fair
00:46:37That pathetic loser married the most wanted man in town
00:46:42I promise you
00:46:48They will get divorced
00:46:50And Richard will be yours like it was always intended to be
00:46:54How?
00:46:56I'll find a way
00:46:57Don't you trust me?
00:46:59Of course I do, Mommy
00:47:01You know what I want from you
00:47:09And you're gonna give me all of your shares
00:47:23Are we clear?
00:47:25The whole board knows about your shitty little plan to take over the company
00:47:28It's not gonna work
00:47:29Trying to blackmail me
00:47:31By showing pictures of me hanging out with other women
00:47:34Nobody gives a fuck
00:47:40Nobody cares
00:47:42My wife and I are in an open relationship
00:47:46So those pictures you sent her
00:47:48Of me with the other women
00:47:50Those really turned her on
00:47:52Thanks for that
00:47:54Well, Larry
00:47:56Unfortunately, things are about to get a bit more complicated for you
00:47:59Now why's that?
00:48:01This isn't what you think
00:48:08Okay?
00:48:10Look, I'm not here to judge you
00:48:11You're free to live your truth
00:48:13I just think your wife might feel a little bit differently about it
00:48:17And her father, Senator Ewing
00:48:19Probably find this pretty problematic
00:48:22I don't want to ruin his reputation
00:48:25Right
00:48:26So you won't share them then, right?
00:48:29Wouldn't that be convenient?
00:48:31This is your last chance
00:48:34Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
00:48:48Now you need to go home
00:48:51And tell Ashley that the marriage is gonna end soon
00:48:54Holy shit
00:48:57I knew it
00:48:59No, Ari, listen
00:49:00You do realize you're risking everything
00:49:03I'm not in love with Ashley, okay?
00:49:05Look, whatever you do
00:49:06Don't tell her you love her
00:49:08Okay?
00:49:10Don't worry
00:49:10I can tell it's been a good day
00:49:28It's been a great day
00:49:29I have to tell you
00:49:31No
00:49:31I need to figure out what to wear to the charity event
00:49:34Go wait in the living room
00:49:35So
00:49:47So
00:49:47What do you think?
00:49:50Not sure
00:49:51Come closer
00:49:53I want to get a better look
00:49:54Come closer
00:49:56Open your pocket
00:49:58I can't see you
00:49:59Can you explain a better look
00:50:00I know
00:50:00Yeah
00:50:01Come closer
00:50:02I don't know
00:50:03I know
00:50:04I know
00:50:05I can't be
00:50:06I love you
00:50:07I can't be
00:50:08I can't be
00:50:08I can't be
00:50:09I can't be
00:50:11I'm you
00:50:11I can't be
00:50:12I can't be
00:50:13I can't be
00:50:13Now
00:50:13I can't be
00:50:15I can't be
00:50:45You don't have to hold back with me.
00:50:48I want to see your true self.
00:50:50You're my wife now.
00:51:15Good girl.
00:51:27I like her.
00:51:31What has gotten into you?
00:51:33You.
00:51:37What has gotten into you?
00:51:53What has gotten into you?
00:52:11I'm not mad.
00:52:13I'm just madly in love with you.
00:52:15I'm not broken.
00:52:17I'm just breaking every rule for you.
00:52:19I'm not speechless.
00:52:21I'm just speaking my heart to you.
00:52:24And every summer right for you.
00:52:27And I could be alive for the rest of eternity.
00:52:34Without ever exhausting all the ways that you make my heart sing.
00:52:42I've got all these feelings.
00:52:45Are you okay?
00:52:48I'm better than okay.
00:52:52I love you.
00:52:56Are you okay?
00:53:00I'm better than okay.
00:53:04I love you.
00:53:05I love you too, Henry.
00:53:08There's something I need to tell you.
00:53:10Hold that thought.
00:53:12I still have a couple more dresses I need to try on for you.
00:53:21Hey, Henry.
00:53:22Or should I say, Richard.
00:53:25Who is this?
00:53:26If you want to keep your identity a secret, meet me at the Velvet Lounge in 30 minutes alone.
00:53:35Shit.
00:53:43Henry?
00:53:44Henry?
00:53:54Excuse me.
00:53:55Can I get a glass of champagne?
00:54:02Over here!
00:54:06What do you want?
00:54:07Ashley can't find out about your plan for taking over the company.
00:54:17Can't trust her.
00:54:18If Sean finds out, we could lose everything we worked for.
00:54:23I don't think I can lie to her anymore.
00:54:26You've been lying your whole life.
00:54:29Just tell one more lie so we don't risk everything.
00:54:32Come on, Richard.
00:54:34Please tell me you're not willing to risk everything for a girl.
00:54:38Of course not.
00:54:39Once you take control, Ashley must stay out of your life.
00:54:43Is that clear?
00:54:49What do you want?
00:54:51If you don't divorce Ashley and marry me,
00:54:54your lame wifey will find out everything about your secret plan.
00:55:00Marrying Ashley was a mistake.
00:55:03You belong with me.
00:55:05And you know that.

00:55:09I deserve to be rich.
00:55:11Filthy rich.
00:55:16Your sister Ashley is the funniest, kindest, smartest, sexiest woman I have ever met.
00:55:25Why would I give her up for a loser like you?

01:03:53took back my family's business that people would finally see my worth and realize that i'm capable
01:03:59of greatness just like my father and grandfather but i got so caught up in this facade that i lost

01:06:57no more lies i promise i'll be the husband you deserve
01:07:09excuse me everyone can i get your attention please
01:07:16i'm sure you're all wondering why i gathered you here over the last several years numerous rumors
01:07:21have circulated about me many businessmen including some of the ones standing right here in front of me
01:07:27have gone the extra mile to ensure that i'm kept at key positions effectively blocking me from my
01:07:31family's business i'm sure you've heard about richard bq fashion's secret owner who you've been praising
01:07:37for the last few years well i am him
01:07:46i wonder what you find more shocking the fact that aria and i have done such a great job keeping
01:07:51this a secret or that it's been me that brought this company back to its glory days
01:07:58i now own 80 of the company's shares which means i can pretty much do whatever i want
01:08:04and after a lot of thinking and considering i've decided i want to put the past behind me
01:08:09and start a new chapter with my amazing wife ashley
01:08:12i no longer wish for a life of money and power but a life filled with meaning and love and
01:08:21perhaps a few kids running around henry what are you doing and that's not all
01:08:30in order to open this new chapter i'm gonna sell the company
01:08:33why am i not surprised and donate the money to several charities that i hold dear to my heart
01:08:39including the park foundation
01:08:42ashton
01:08:52you are the best thing that has ever happened to me
01:08:55i've never been happier and more content in my entire life
01:09:05will you marry me for real this time
01:09:07i'd marry you a thousand times
01:09:21we're gonna be rich
01:09:40what makes you think that well because you own 80 percent and sean owns 20 percent and the company is
01:09:48worth i don't own any shares in the company jocelyn what the what are you talking about a few days ago henry
01:10:00stopped by and shared with me his plans for the future uh including his future with ashley
01:10:07i decided that transferring my shares to him is the right thing to do
01:10:12what have you done
01:10:19this is all your fault
01:10:25don't you ever touch my daughter
01:10:29when you leave here just make sure you and your peasant daughter pack your things from my house
01:10:38i'm not mad i'm just madly in love with you
01:11:06i'm not broken i'm just breaking every rule for you
01:11:13i'm not speechless
