00:00:00Sophie Swift!
00:00:01You married some random callboy?
00:00:03What?
00:00:05OK, husband, so from now on, I pay you 10K a month
00:00:08for as long as we're married, and it was a pleasure
00:00:10doing business with you.
00:00:12This must be your new boy toy, huh?
00:00:14Stay away from it.
00:00:15This is where you live.
00:00:17Uh, you know, thanks for the ride.
00:00:19I'll catch you later.
00:00:20I got married.
00:00:21Girl of my dreams.
00:00:22She doesn't really know who I am yet.
00:00:23Take care of the company while I'm gone, OK?
00:00:25You work the hotels at night and then here during the day.
00:00:29Well, geez, don't overwork yourself.
00:00:31If it isn't my loser sister and her loser husband.
00:00:34You know, you two make the perfect couple.
00:00:37After all.
00:00:39Trash sticks with trash.
00:00:43You need to file for divorce right now.
00:00:47Sophie's taking over the company today.
00:00:49Don't worry.
00:00:50I won't let her win.
00:00:51Three million.
00:00:53Fifteen million?
00:00:54Fifteen million.
00:00:55I have fifteen million.
00:00:57What the fuck is Justin late?
00:00:59It's time I reveal my true identity.
00:01:16What the heck happened last night?
00:01:18Oh, God.
00:01:32Did I really sleep with a cowboy?
00:01:34You're just gonna leave without saying goodbye?
00:01:48Oh, I forgot to pay you.
00:02:05Of course.
00:02:07Two grand should cover it.
00:02:09Goodbye.
00:02:10Uh, and I will see you...
00:02:24Never.
00:02:26The truth is, I met her once seven years ago.
00:02:39I had just arrived in Paris for my foreign exchange program, but I got my wallet and phone stolen on my first day here.
00:02:45Excuse me.
00:02:48Excuse me.
00:02:49How are you?
00:02:50Do you speak English?
00:02:53Um, please...
00:02:54Um, please...
00:02:55Um, please...
00:02:56Please take a picture.
00:02:57Please take a picture.
00:02:59Please take a picture.
00:03:03Please take a picture.
00:03:04Please take a picture.
00:03:05American?
00:03:15American?
00:03:20Yes.
00:03:21You speak English.
00:03:22Yeah, and let me guess your wallet and your phone were stolen.
00:03:26How'd you know that?
00:03:27I mean, it happens.
00:03:28I was in your shoes not too long ago.
00:03:30But...
00:03:32This should be enough to get you a taxi to wherever you want to go.
00:03:36Good luck.
00:03:38Wait, I didn't...
00:03:40Get your name.
00:03:54Oh, Sophie Swift. Smile for the camera.
00:03:58Oh, if your fiancé finds out about your little one night stand, think he'll still marry you?
00:04:06You still think I'd marry that lying, cheating, tiny dick man whore?
00:04:09You know what? Since you like to sleep with him, why don't you marry him?
00:04:13Well, I'm gonna show Derek and Daddy these photos.
00:04:15See what they have to say.
00:04:18Hey, psycho, what are you doing?
00:04:21Oops.
00:04:22Looks like you need a new phone.
00:04:25Here.
00:04:26Go buy one.
00:04:28Now get out before I call security.
00:04:35Oh, my gosh.
00:04:37Hey.
00:04:38So, you work at the hotels, huh?
00:04:40Actually, this is just one of the many hotels...
00:04:44Oh, um, my car is here.
00:04:46Keep this.
00:04:47You did really good last night.
00:04:53One of the many hotels that I own.
00:04:55This woman is always giving me money.
00:04:56Wait.
00:04:57Does she really think I'm a cowboy?
00:04:58Hey, boss.
00:04:59Hey, boss.
00:05:00Still unforgot.
00:05:01Hey, boss.
00:05:02Still unforgot.
00:05:03Hey, boss.
00:05:04Golf at the center?
00:05:05I have rescheduled.
00:05:06Take me to the maple plaza site.
00:05:07I need to check it out.
00:05:08Hey, boss.
00:05:09I need to check out a few things.
00:05:10I need to check out a few things.
00:05:11I need to check out a few things.
00:05:12I need to check out a few things.
00:05:13I need to check out a few things.
00:05:14This woman is always giving me money.
00:05:16Wait.
00:05:17Does she really think I'm a cowboy?
00:05:19Hey, boss.
00:05:20Still unforgot for the center?
00:05:21I have rescheduled.
00:05:22Take me to the maple plaza site.
00:05:23I need to check out a few things.
00:05:26I need to check out a few things.
00:05:27Hey, boss.
00:05:28Still unforgot for the center?
00:05:30I have rescheduled.
00:05:31Take me to the maple plaza site.
00:05:33I need to check on a few things.
00:05:36What?
00:05:37Look into Sophie Swift for me.
00:05:52I need to know everything about her.
00:05:54Got it, boss.
00:06:05Well.
00:06:07If she's going to sleep with some random male escort, I don't want to marry her anymore.
00:06:13But Derek, if you don't marry Sophie, she can't inherit her late mother's company.
00:06:19We talked about this.
00:06:20You heard what Stella said.
00:06:22She saw Sophie with another man.
00:06:24It's not my fault.
00:06:25Daddy, don't be mad.
00:06:27You know how irresponsible Sophie is.
00:06:29Sophie, where the hell are you?
00:06:40Come home now.
00:06:41Yeah, boss, what you need?
00:06:54So the first round of the state inspection is next week.
00:06:56So we got to make sure everything's good to go.
00:06:58It's all under control, boss.
00:06:59We got it.
00:07:00See, look.
00:07:01The trash over by the trash can needs to go in the trash can.
00:07:03It could be laying around on the ground, right?
00:07:05My mistake, boss.
00:07:06I'll take care of it right over here.
00:07:08All right.
00:07:08Let's go.
00:07:11Scoot and spank it.
00:07:13Hey.
00:07:14Where the hell are you?
00:07:21Need to come home right now.
00:07:23What do you want, Dad?
00:07:24I'm meeting with the construction site manager to go over some changes to the blueprint.
00:07:27Your sister told me everything.
00:07:29Have you no shame?
00:07:31Derek wants to break off the engagement.
00:07:34You need to come home and beg him to take you back if you want to save the company.
00:07:39I don't want to marry him either.
00:07:41He's there with you, isn't he?
00:07:42Put me on speaker.
00:07:46Hey, Derek.
00:07:47Fuck you.
00:07:48You turned 25 in three days.
00:07:51How do you expect to inherit your mother's company if you don't get married?
00:07:54It's clearly stated in the will.
00:07:57You know what?
00:07:57I will marry anybody else but him.
00:07:59Goodbye.
00:08:06It's you.
00:08:09It's you.
00:08:10Um.
00:08:12So, you work at the hotels at night and then here during the day.
00:08:17Well, geez, don't overwork yourself.
00:08:19I usually handle it just fine, but I'm especially tired after last night.
00:08:24How many rounds?
00:08:25Oh, wait.
00:08:25Stop it.
00:08:26Right there.
00:08:28Anyway.
00:08:28What brings you here today, Ms. Swift?
00:08:30You can call me Sophie.
00:08:32And I'm supposed to meet the construction site manager, but I'm late and I think that they've
00:08:37already left.
00:08:38So, I guess I can just call them later.
00:08:41Oh, snap.
00:08:42She's from the architecture firm that's partnered with us.
00:08:45Justin, you must be exhausted from working two jobs.
00:08:48Why don't you come work for me instead?
00:08:51Huh?
00:08:52I can double your current salary.
00:08:53Whatever it is.
00:08:55Where are we going?
00:08:56What's the job?
00:08:57City Hall.
00:08:57And the job is to marry me.
00:08:59Okay, husband.
00:09:10So, from now on, I pay you $10K a month for as long as we're married and it was a pleasure
00:09:14doing business with you.
00:09:16You got it, boss.
00:09:17Or should I say a wife?
00:09:19Boss wife.
00:09:20Let the show begin.
00:09:21Let's go.
00:09:29Nice of you to finally come home.
00:09:34If I were you, I'd be begging Derek to take me back.
00:09:38Derek probably doesn't even want to see her anymore.
00:09:40That's why she came crawling back here.
00:09:42That's funny.
00:09:43Coming from two homewreckers.
00:09:45How dare you?
00:09:46Tony, do you hear your daughter?
00:09:50Rude brat.
00:09:51I am not here to listen to you guys talk down on me.
00:09:54I'm here to show you my marriage certificate.
00:09:56And in about three days' time, I will be taking over my late mother's architecture firm.
00:10:01And you guys can't do anything about it.
00:10:04Who the fuck is Justin Lake?
00:10:09Justin Lake.
00:10:11Her name sounds familiar.
00:10:13I know I've heard that name before.
00:10:15Wait, is that the guy from this morning?
00:10:18You married some random cowboy?
00:10:20What?
00:10:21That's appalling.
00:10:23Oh, not as appalling as you.
00:10:24At least I didn't sleep with a married man and get pregnant.
00:10:28Don't you dare talk to my mother that way.
00:10:31You need to file for divorce right now.
00:10:35Or never set foot in this house again.
00:10:38I'm okay with that.
00:10:40I was just here to show you my certificate.
00:10:42So.
00:10:44Holy fuck, Sophie.
00:10:46You got married to a stranger.
00:10:48Holy fuck, Sophie.
00:10:54You got married to a stranger.
00:10:55Yes, Kendall.
00:10:56You asked me three times already.
00:10:57And like I said, fake married so that I can inherit my mother's company.
00:11:01Yeah, still.
00:11:02Marriage is a huge deal.
00:11:03What am I supposed to do?
00:11:05Marry Derek?
00:11:06You're right.
00:11:10Anyone is better than Derek.
00:11:13Have no mercy for cheaters.
00:11:15So, how did you meet this Justin Lake?
00:11:20Two grand should cover it?
00:11:21I'd rather not say that.
00:11:26Okay.
00:11:27What does he do for a living?
00:11:29Okay, I'd rather not answer that one either.
00:11:31You gotta give me something.
00:11:33Look, point being, I am paying him 10 grand a month to play my husband for a couple months.
00:11:37Wait, you're paying him 10 grand?
00:11:39And then we get divorced.
00:11:40I'm your assistant.
00:11:42Why is his salary higher than mine?
00:11:44I want a raise.
00:11:44A raise.
00:11:45Okay.
00:11:46I need you to look into someone for me.
00:11:53His name, Justin Lake.
00:12:12Boss, what's happening?
00:12:13You've been like this all morning.
00:12:15I got married yesterday to the girl of my dreams.
00:12:18Wait, the Paris girl?
00:12:20Yep.
00:12:21Wait, let me guess.
00:12:23Sophie Swift?
00:12:24Yep.
00:12:26She's with Swift Architecture.
00:12:27We're actually working with him on the Maple Plaza project.
00:12:29Huh.
00:12:30She doesn't really know who I am yet.
00:12:32Huh?
00:12:33And she's giving me 10 grand a month.
00:12:35Isn't she cute?
00:12:36Huh?
00:12:42Hey.
00:12:42Hey, yourself.
00:12:43All right.
00:12:44First day on the job.
00:12:46I texted you an address.
00:12:47Please meet me there.
00:12:48You got it.
00:12:51I gotta go.
00:12:52What do you mean, you gotta go?
00:12:53Wait, where?
00:12:55She called.
00:12:56I gotta go.
00:12:56That's it.
00:12:57Wait, what about our meetings today?
00:12:58You gotta cancel it.
00:12:59The wife's more important.
00:13:00Looking good, Joey.
00:13:15Oh, welcome, Miss Swift.
00:13:17I have your dress right here.
00:13:19If you...
00:13:19Actually, my husband is coming in a minute and he needs some decent suits.
00:13:23And you're the only designer in L.A. that I trust.
00:13:25Oh, it's not that I don't want to help, Miss Swift, but this is too last minute.
00:13:30I am swamped by orders.
00:13:31I am so sorry I'm late.
00:13:39Okay.
00:13:40Miss Swift.
00:13:42Now, how come you didn't tell me that your husband was...
00:13:44Was, uh, such a handsome young man.
00:13:52Justin Lake.
00:13:54Hey, sir.
00:13:56I don't know if I've ever been in a store like this.
00:13:59Everything looks so expensive.
00:14:00You really don't have to do this for me.
00:14:02Well, you're my husband.
00:14:03Of course I do.
00:14:04But I'm happy to, so.
00:14:06Can you get his measurements, please?
00:14:08Oh, there's no need.
00:14:11I mean, um...
00:14:13Well, I've been doing this for too long.
00:14:20One look, and I have a rough number in mind.
00:14:23Okay, well, see, then this is why we're here.
00:14:25Joey's the expert of experts.
00:14:26Well, I have some suits you'll look stunning in, Mr. Lake.
00:14:30Please, follow me.
00:14:32I'll wait for you on here, okay?
00:14:33Okay.
00:14:38These two racks are customized for you, Mr. Lake.
00:14:42Grab a few options.
00:14:43No, I can pretend to put them on.
00:14:59Hmm.
00:15:03It's not bad.
00:15:04Okay, what kind of witchcraft is this?
00:15:07Every suit fits you like a glove.
00:15:10Trade secrets.
00:15:11Oh, sorry.
00:15:32No, that's...
00:15:33That's okay.
00:15:34Um, we're actually gonna take all three suits.
00:15:36Uh, well, actually, we're having our annual sale on now.
00:15:43All the suits you chose are 30% off.
00:15:46Really?
00:15:47You never have sales.
00:15:48Uh, let me wrap these up for you.
00:15:51Okay.
00:15:52All right.
00:15:54Promise I'll make enough money to pay you back.
00:15:56You're my husband, okay?
00:15:58You don't have to pay me back.
00:15:59At least not with money.
00:16:03Okay.
00:16:16Wow.
00:16:16I've never had a woman take me shopping, buy me expensive clothes, and offer to take me home.
00:16:23Lucky you.
00:16:24You just won the jackpot.
00:16:26There's no argument there.
00:16:27Come on, dinner's on me.
00:16:28Okay, Sophie.
00:16:32That really is you.
00:16:34What do you want?
00:16:35So Stella was right about you.
00:16:37This must be your new boy toy, huh?
00:16:40And you must be the cheating, lying, tiny dick man whore, right?
00:16:45You bitch, is that what you told him?
00:16:50You bitch, is that what you told him?
00:16:56You call my wife a bitch again?
00:16:58And I won't hesitate to break your nose.
00:17:01You hear me?
00:17:02Bitch.
00:17:04Whatever, man.
00:17:05Just chill the fuck out.
00:17:07Now shoot.
00:17:08Unless you want to get hit.
00:17:10Whatever.
00:17:12Arrogant prick.
00:17:16Come on.
00:17:17I'm extra hungry now.
00:17:18Okay.
00:17:22Sure you want to pay for dinner.
00:17:23This place is very expensive.
00:17:26Look, you pay me ten grand a month.
00:17:28I think I can comfortably afford this.
00:17:30Don't worry about it.
00:17:31Order whatever you'd like.
00:17:32All right.
00:17:33Don't blame me if I break your wallet.
00:17:38Mr. Lake.
00:17:39Why didn't you tell me you were coming in tonight?
00:17:41Justin, is he talking to you?
00:17:53Dennis.
00:17:53My good buddy Dennis.
00:17:55Long time no see.
00:17:56How are you?
00:17:57You know the GM here.
00:17:59I, uh...
00:18:00Yeah, from when I, uh...
00:18:02When I used to work here for...
00:18:04For work.
00:18:06Right.
00:18:07Hi, Justin.
00:18:08From when I used to work here.
00:18:10My brother.
00:18:12We really miss you around here.
00:18:15What did you use to do here?
00:18:17I would, uh...
00:18:19I'd bring clients.
00:18:22Great.
00:18:22Uh, so you rep shared with the restaurant.
00:18:29That's clever.
00:18:31No wonder you brought me here.
00:18:32Why didn't you just tell me?
00:18:35So you ready to order?
00:18:39Teddy bear?
00:18:40Teddy bear?
00:18:54Sophie bear.
00:18:56Come here.
00:18:56Hi.
00:18:58When did you get back from Barcelona?
00:19:00Ah, this morning.
00:19:01Why didn't you call me to come get you from the airport?
00:19:03I want to be a surprise.
00:19:05Consider me surprised.
00:19:07How did you even know I was here?
00:19:09Dummy.
00:19:10Come on.
00:19:11You remember you share your location with my phone?
00:19:13After what happened last time?
00:19:15Come on.
00:19:16Any more questions?
00:19:16Okay, okay.
00:19:18Oh, uh, Justin, me.
00:19:19Teddy, my best friend.
00:19:22Justin.
00:19:23Ted.
00:19:27It's a firm handshake you got there.
00:19:31Am I interrupting anything?
00:19:33Actually, we were just...
00:19:34No, join us for dinner.
00:19:36Great.
00:19:37It's dorm.
00:19:39Great.
00:19:40So how is business in Barcelona?
00:19:51Oh, fantastic.
00:19:52We broke record sales three years in a row.
00:19:54Revenue's up over half a billion now.
00:19:56Congratulations.
00:19:57Your father must be so proud.
00:19:58Wow.
00:20:03Half a billion.
00:20:04What line of work are you in, Todd?
00:20:06Ted.
00:20:07Uh, it's construction.
00:20:09We're one of the largest construction companies in Spain.
00:20:11Yeah, my mom was an architect.
00:20:12That's why we're family friends.
00:20:13Well, profit margin in construction is pretty low.
00:20:17So you're saying your revenue is 500 million.
00:20:21That means you took down, what, 300 million?
00:20:23Even after taxes, that's...
00:20:25Justin, stop being so rude.
00:20:26No, no.
00:20:27It's fine.
00:20:28It's fine.
00:20:28He's right.
00:20:29We have a long way to go.
00:20:31I'm certain we'll surpass late construction here in no time.
00:20:35What about you, Justin?
00:20:36What type of work are you in?
00:20:37Shit, Justin must feel so embarrassed.
00:20:47Oh, uh, Justin works with me now.
00:20:49Uh, he is my assistant architect.
00:20:52That's nice.
00:21:00So, I flew back from Barcelona to take care of some emergency family matters,
00:21:03but I'll be here for a while this time.
00:21:05Call me whenever we need to hang out.
00:21:08Of course.
00:21:09I haven't seen you in, what, a year?
00:21:12On time.
00:21:13We need to catch up?
00:21:14Yeah.
00:21:17Yes.
00:21:18Bye, Ted.
00:21:18Bye.
00:21:22Yeah, bye.
00:21:27That's your bestie, huh?
00:21:29Well, we practically grew up together.
00:21:30He is like my brother from another mother.
00:21:33By the way, I know it got a little awkward
00:21:35when Teddy started asking you about your line of business,
00:21:38so I have another proposal.
00:21:41Why don't you join my company?
00:21:43Oh, fuck.
00:21:45No shade to your previous profession.
00:21:48I just think anyone making money with their hard work
00:21:50should be treated with respect.
00:21:52Sophie, the thing is...
00:21:56Oh, just come in for an interview.
00:22:00Please.
00:22:01I think a career change won't hurt you,
00:22:03and it'll help our story.
00:22:05And here is your bill, sir.
00:22:09Just give me a time and a place, boss,
00:22:11and I'll be there.
00:22:12Yay!
00:22:21No need to be nervous, okay?
00:22:22We're just gonna chat a bit.
00:22:24Sounds good to me.
00:22:25So, do you have your resume on you?
00:22:27I sure do.
00:22:29I've done a little bit of this,
00:22:30a little bit of that.
00:22:31Nothing special.
00:22:32Don't worry.
00:22:33Sophie has already chosen you as her prince charming.
00:22:36I'm pretty sure you've done something.
00:22:37Oh!
00:22:39This is incredible.
00:22:46You went to LISAA in Paris?
00:22:49That's correct.
00:22:50You were the chief designer
00:22:51of the reconstruction of Shangri-La Paris.
00:22:54You got that right, too.
00:22:55And you design
00:22:56Filt-Harmone de Perri as well?
00:23:01You're hired.
00:23:09I just got hired at Swift Architecture.
00:23:12I start today.
00:23:13What?
00:23:14Are you trying to blow up my eardrums?
00:23:16But, boss,
00:23:16what about late construction?
00:23:17I'm gonna count on you
00:23:18to take care of the company
00:23:19while I'm gone.
00:23:20Okay?
00:23:21Goodbye.
00:23:22Boss.
00:23:24Boss!
00:23:27Take care of what company?
00:23:29Uh...
00:23:30Take care of Tommy.
00:23:38My pet goldfish.
00:23:40Since I'll be working for you now
00:23:42and I'll be super busy,
00:23:44a pet goldfish requires a lot of work.
00:23:47Water changes and everything.
00:23:50Okay.
00:23:52Anyways, come on.
00:23:53I'll give you a ride.
00:23:54Where are we going?
00:23:55Well, I don't want to overwork you
00:23:56on your first day.
00:23:57Let me give you a ride home.
00:23:59My home?
00:24:03This is where you live.
00:24:05Go ahead.
00:24:06Yep, thanks for the ride.
00:24:07I'll catch you later.
00:24:10You can head out now.
00:24:12No worries.
00:24:13Uh, go ahead.
00:24:16You know,
00:24:17I forgot my key.
00:24:19I'll wait for my roomie to get here.
00:24:20You share this place with a roomie.
00:24:24Four.
00:24:25Four roomie.
00:24:26No, no, no.
00:24:27Uh, this won't do.
00:24:29Wait.
00:24:31Huh?
00:24:35What brings us here today?
00:24:37Well, we're looking at new houses, obviously.
00:24:39I have my eye on the single family.
00:24:41It's a little bit pricey, though.
00:24:43About 30 million.
00:24:44But the design of Lake Enterprise is stunning
00:24:47and the location could not be any better.
00:24:49Lake Enterprise.
00:24:50Hmm?
00:24:50Let's go buy you a house.
00:24:53Me?
00:24:53Transportation around here is super convenient.
00:24:57Subway is just around the corner.
00:24:59Excellent school district.
00:25:00And we have a new Maple Plaza opening next year.
00:25:04What's your take on the neighborhood?
00:25:07It's great.
00:25:08Too many pamphlets on the site.
00:25:10Yes.
00:25:11I'll be right back.
00:25:23If it isn't my loser sister and her loser husband.
00:25:29Hey, sis.
00:25:30House hunting so soon after getting married?
00:25:31That's none of your business.
00:25:35The whole Derrigan system buying me a house.
00:25:37That's right, babe.
00:25:38Whichever one you fancy, I'll buy it for you.
00:25:42Ms. Swift, here are the pamphlets you asked for.
00:25:44Oh, I'll take whichever lot she's looking at.
00:25:47Use this card.
00:25:47Sorry, it's mine now.
00:25:57I don't know.
00:25:57I just have a feeling today is not a good day for you two.
00:26:00What are you, a psychic?
00:26:02This guy is delusional.
00:26:04Hey, let me tell you how this is going to work out for you, compadre.
00:26:08Sorry, sir.
00:26:09Our card processing is down for maintenance.
00:26:11What the fuck do you take check?
00:26:18Sorry, our system is down.
00:26:19We won't be able to process any payments today.
00:26:22Forget it.
00:26:23Let's get out of here then.
00:26:27I guess we'll just have to come back.
00:26:31Ms. Swift, our services are back online.
00:26:33Already?
00:26:34And we have a promotion today.
00:26:36We have 50% off.
00:26:4050% off.
00:26:41Deal.
00:26:48Deal.
00:26:52Oh, my God.
00:26:54You're kind of adorable when you're happy, huh?
00:26:5615 million?
00:26:57I could buy another one.
00:26:58But how does he have the authority for that kind of promo?
00:27:03You think he's some undercover billionaire?
00:27:06What if he's Mr. Lake, the CEO of Lake Enterprise?
00:27:10He does look quite handsome, by the way.
00:27:15Right?
00:27:17I'm not handsome?
00:27:18I'm not handsome.
00:27:19Daddy, Sophie took her boy toy to buy a house today, and she had a huge argument with Derek.
00:27:33She knows exactly how to rile me.
00:27:37I bet Derek is pissed.
00:27:40Well, what if I marry Derek?
00:27:46What if I marry Derek and bring the families together?
00:27:50Absolutely not.
00:27:52And their engagement is already a scandal.
00:27:54If you marry Derek, our entire family will be a joke.
00:27:58If only Sophie were as obedient as you.
00:28:10I have no idea what any of this shit means.
00:28:13Derek.
00:28:14Sophie's taking over the company today.
00:28:22I have nothing.
00:28:23Don't worry.
00:28:25I won't let her win.
00:28:26So today marks the first day of me taking over my mother's company, and I'm very eager to work with you all.
00:28:44Your scandal with Derek has tarnished the company's image.
00:28:59Indeed.
00:29:01And the stock took another hit today.
00:29:03How are you going to address that?
00:29:04This discussion has nothing to do with my personal life.
00:29:07But Derek has conspired with other firms against us.
00:29:11This is all your fault.
00:29:12I will take care of this.
00:29:14And I can assure you that if I don't turn the company around in six months, I will step down voluntarily.
00:29:22Now, let's get back to work.
00:29:31Patrick.
00:29:32Sophie needs help.
00:29:34Um, what do you need me to do, boss?
00:29:35I need you to sign a three-year exclusive deal with Swift Enterprise on my behalf.
00:29:42Mr. and Mrs. Swift, I hear your company's been having some trouble.
00:29:52Our stock's tanking.
00:29:54It's driving me crazy.
00:29:55It's all Sophie's fault.
00:29:57Sophie and I had a tiny misunderstanding.
00:30:01So she rushed into marriage to get back at me.
00:30:03But if she begs me to take her back and apologizes to me, I won't mind marrying her.
00:30:12You've always been a perfect match for Sophie.
00:30:15Once Sophie and I are married, our companies can unite and we will be unstoppable.
00:30:24Make Sophie divorce him and dump that freeloader for good.
00:30:28I'll make sure Sophie marries you, Derek.
00:30:31All right.
00:30:32I won't take up any more of your time.
00:30:40Sophie, come home right away.
00:30:43It's urgent.
00:30:51What is your emergency?
00:30:53Divorce that loser husband and marry Derek.
00:30:56Now.
00:30:58That's your emergency?
00:31:01Your husband is a loser.
00:31:03Our stocks are tanking.
00:31:06Marry Derek and fix this shit.
00:31:08First of all, don't call my husband a loser.
00:31:11Second of all, your daughter is screwing Derek.
00:31:13So if you think that I'm going to marry him, you're delusional.
00:31:17And lastly, I will fix this.
00:31:19Without the help of that fucking cheater or any of you leeches.
00:31:22If you don't divorce that loser, don't ever come back.
00:31:27You are no daughter of mine.
00:31:31Fine.
00:31:32I won't.
00:31:34You were a horrible husband to mother, so it really doesn't surprise me of how shitty of a dad you are.
00:31:39The three of you are a family and I'm just your cash cow?
00:31:43That ends today.
00:31:44Do you want to have a drink with me?
00:31:58Whoa.
00:31:59Having a party, huh?
00:32:02Sorry, I was just to settle it in.
00:32:04I didn't know you were coming.
00:32:05Yeah, I should probably settle in myself.
00:32:08Wait, really?
00:32:09Yeah, I just cut ties with my family, so cheers.
00:32:16Want to talk about it?
00:32:17What's there to talk about?
00:32:22Sophie.
00:32:25You don't have to smile all the time.
00:32:28It can be a shoulder to cry on, too.
00:32:29Oh, slow down.
00:32:38Slow down.
00:32:39No, you're lame.
00:32:43Give me.
00:32:44I don't know.
00:32:44I think you've had enough.
00:32:45Sophie.
00:32:55Sophie.
00:32:56Sophie.
00:32:58Fuck.
00:32:59Let's get you some rest.
00:33:00Come on.
00:33:11Justin.
00:33:12Oh, my God.
00:33:13Justin, time.
00:33:14I made you coffee.
00:33:15What's up?
00:33:16Lake Enterprise just called me,
00:33:18and they want to sign a long-term contract with us.
00:33:21This is everything that I needed,
00:33:22so I'm actually going to go meet them
00:33:24at Lake Enterprise right now.
00:33:26Perfect.
00:33:27I'll wait for you at the office.
00:33:29No, no, no.
00:33:29You're coming with me.
00:33:40Hey, Justin.
00:33:41Come this way with me.
00:33:54What's the fanciest restaurant you can think of?
00:34:24Oh, Olive Garden?
00:34:27I do.
00:34:32And what are you doing here?
00:34:33That's none of your concern.
00:34:36Mr. Lake!
00:34:38Mr. Lake is not available at the moment, but you can have a seat and wait for him, sir.
00:34:42I know what you're up to.
00:34:45Forget it.
00:34:46Mr. Lake and I already struck up a deal.
00:34:49Oh, you know Mr. Lake?
00:34:54You know Mr. Lake?
00:34:56Of course.
00:34:58We're...
00:34:59Well...
00:35:01Why should I tell you?
00:35:03Oh, come on.
00:35:04You can say it.
00:35:05I don't want to.
00:35:09Uh, Mr. Brown, this way, please.
00:35:11I can't wait to work with you.
00:35:30That makes two of us.
00:35:31Bathroom.
00:35:39Be right back.
00:35:50Still waiting?
00:35:51Um, Mr. Lake and I actually had a nice chat earlier.
00:35:56Really?
00:35:58Where is he now?
00:36:00Uh, he went to grab a bite.
00:36:02Hmm.
00:36:04And he didn't invite you?
00:36:06I'm not hungry.
00:36:07Well, best of luck to you.
00:36:25Cheers.
00:36:26I did not expect this project to go so smoothly.
00:36:32Hmm.
00:36:32What do you want, Derek?
00:36:37I know you got that contract, but trust me, I won't let you win forever.
00:36:43Just you wait.
00:36:45You know what you sound like?
00:36:46A loser.
00:36:51Did this bitch just hang up on me?
00:36:54What do you want?
00:36:57Forget Derek.
00:36:58Yeah, I don't want to talk about your ex.
00:37:01Let's talk about us.
00:37:03What's there to talk about?
00:37:05No talking.
00:37:07More doing.
00:37:18You're really talented.
00:37:20Why did you...
00:37:21Maybe I shouldn't ask too much about his past?
00:37:24Here.
00:37:24Never mind.
00:37:25Okay, so you want this portion elevated right here?
00:37:28Yes.
00:37:28Okay.
00:37:30Sophie.
00:37:32You haven't been home lately.
00:37:33Where have you been?
00:37:34I thought you made it clear I'm no daughter of yours.
00:37:37You're such a brat.
00:37:39This, the...
00:37:40man you married...
00:37:44Nice to see him as a bit.
00:37:46Sophie, I'm gonna tell you one last time.
00:37:50Divorce him at once, if you want to save the company.
00:37:53Let me tell you one last time.
00:37:56I am never, ever marrying Derek.
00:37:58I would rather die than marry that asshole.
00:38:05Come on, Justin.
00:38:07Let's go.
00:38:09And we just signed the contract with Lake Enterprise.
00:38:12I can save the company without Derek.
00:38:15You won't meet the fire safety protocols on the Maple Plaza project.
00:38:33I made sure of that.
00:38:36You're screwed.
00:38:37You prick.
00:38:39Beg me, and I might consider letting you off.
00:38:42I can help with that.
00:38:49How?
00:38:52Just wait and see.
00:38:53Hey, Ted, I'm in trouble.
00:39:17Hey.
00:39:17Well, make yourself at home.
00:39:24What happened?
00:39:24Let me hear it.
00:39:25Well, basically, Derek screwed me.
00:39:27I couldn't meet the fire safety protocols.
00:39:30Alright.
00:39:31Let me text my guy.
00:39:33I got you.
00:39:35Counting on you, Teddy Bear.
00:39:36I got you, Sophie Bear.
00:39:37Hello?
00:39:42Hi, Ms. Swift.
00:39:44It's Patrick Brown.
00:39:46We sorted out the fire safety issue.
00:39:48That's fantastic.
00:39:52I'm sure our partnership will be a resounding success.
00:39:55Absolutely.
00:39:56Thank you, Teddy Bear.
00:40:03The issue has been sorted.
00:40:05Already?
00:40:06I just texted my guy like two seconds ago.
00:40:08I guess they work fast.
00:40:11God, thank you.
00:40:12I guess so.
00:40:14Wow.
00:40:17Was that too quick a fix?
00:40:19Was that a bad thing?
00:40:20Is that a bad thing?
00:40:26I told you I could help you with the...
00:40:38What the hell are you doing here?
00:40:48What the hell are you doing here?
00:40:49Well, I invited him.
00:40:50He's been a huge help.
00:40:53Could you maybe dress a little bit more appropriate
00:40:55when we have male guests over?
00:40:58Guest?
00:40:59He's...
00:41:00He's my best friend.
00:41:01We've known each other longer than me and you.
00:41:04Anyway, I have good news.
00:41:06The whole fire safety issue...
00:41:08Resolved.
00:41:09I know.
00:41:10You know?
00:41:12Well, Ted fixed it just with one call,
00:41:14and it's...
00:41:14It's all sorted.
00:41:16What?
00:41:17I'm the one who fixed it.
00:41:19Okay.
00:41:20Hold on.
00:41:22Now I'm totally confused.
00:41:24Confused?
00:41:24You're doing this on purpose.
00:41:26Justin, why are you being so rude today?
00:41:31What is his problem?
00:41:37Patrick.
00:41:38Why didn't you pick up on a call last night?
00:41:43Look into Ted Bass for me.
00:41:46There you are.
00:41:47I've been looking for you.
00:41:49What can I do for you, boss, wife?
00:41:51Well, you've been acting kind of strange since last night.
00:41:54I just wanted to see if you were okay.
00:41:57Sophie, the thing is...
00:42:04Mrs. Green?
00:42:05What's wrong?
00:42:06Miss, your mother's emerald necklace.
00:42:08It's been stolen.
00:42:09I was cleaning your mother's old room today
00:42:11and I couldn't find it.
00:42:12I couldn't find it anywhere.
00:42:13What?
00:42:14I'll be right there.
00:42:23I thought you weren't coming back here.
00:42:25How did you get in?
00:42:28Did you let her in?
00:42:31This house was paid for by my mother.
00:42:33I can return whenever I want.
00:42:35Where is my mother's emerald necklace?
00:42:37You mean my emerald necklace.
00:42:41I told you not to touch her stuff.
00:42:43Just give it to her, Karen.
00:42:45I don't have it.
00:42:47She must have lost it herself
00:42:49and come back to frame me.
00:42:51Dad, you know the truth.
00:42:53Mom's stuff was in her room.
00:42:54I have never touched it once.
00:42:57But I'm going to ask one more time.
00:42:59Where is my mother's necklace?
00:43:01Fine.
00:43:02I sold it at an auction.
00:43:06If you want it,
00:43:07you can buy it back yourself.
00:43:11Fuck you.
00:43:14Sir, according to my investigation,
00:43:20Karen sold the emerald necklace last month.
00:43:22It was the heirloom of Miss Sophie's late mother.
00:43:25Seems like they haven't learned their lesson.
00:43:27Let's head at the auction.
00:43:29It's time I reveal my true identity.
00:43:32I need for you to help me secure that necklace.
00:43:38I'm going to rub it in her face.
00:43:40Anything for you, babe.
00:43:42You can count on me.
00:43:44Oh, Sophie!
00:43:46You're here to have been on that emerald necklace, right?
00:43:49Poor thing.
00:43:50She's just wasting her time.
00:43:53And look at you.
00:43:54Got all dressed up.
00:43:56Write your little boy toy with you.
00:43:58But in the end,
00:43:58you'll leave with nothing but tears.
00:43:59You know, you two make the perfect couple.
00:44:03After all.
00:44:05Trash sticks with trash.
00:44:09Indeed.
00:44:09Trash does stick with trash.
00:44:11Ladies and gentlemen,
00:44:21the highlight of tonight's collection,

00:45:24Why didn't you tell me this before?
00:45:30Hi, um, can we please retract our bid?
00:45:34Hi, um, can we please retract our bid?
00:45:37It's already paid.
00:45:39By who?
00:45:40Justin Lake.
00:45:42That Justin Lake?
00:45:43Yes, miss.
00:45:49It's yours now.
00:45:58Smile.
00:45:59Hold your head up high.
00:46:00Let's make a bang on ice.
00:46:01All set.
00:46:14By the way, where did you get $15 million?
00:46:17You didn't sell yourself, did you?
00:46:19Should I be flattered?
00:46:21Justin, just tell me.
00:46:22Seriously.
00:46:24Why don't you let me show you?
00:46:25What is going on?
00:46:34Do I really need to be blindfolded for this?
00:46:36Moments away now.
00:46:37Come on.
00:46:38Okay.
00:46:39You're so dramatic.
00:46:44Okay.
00:46:45Take it off.
00:46:50What is this?
00:46:51Where are we?
00:46:53Come with me.
00:46:54I'll give you the tour.
00:46:55Okay.
00:46:59Welcome back, Mr. Lake.
00:47:03Señorita.
00:47:06Mr. Lake.
00:47:08So you live here?
00:47:09Here and a couple other places, depending on the season.
00:47:13But this place is extra special.
00:47:15The garden is gorgeous.
00:47:18Dad and I designed it together.
00:47:19And my man, Al, here, has been with us for 30 years.
00:47:22Wait, I spent $15 million buying your home and then gave it to you.
00:47:31Oh, yeah.
00:47:33Are you the Justin Lake?
00:47:38Are you the Justin Lake?
00:47:39That's right.
00:47:41Why didn't you tell me?
00:47:43Well, I did, but you didn't want to believe me.
00:47:46No, you could have told me formally.
00:47:49Well, allow me to formally introduce myself.
00:47:51God, stop.
00:47:52When the heir to the lake family reveals his true identity, it tends to stir up drama and chaos.
00:48:03I didn't want that.
00:48:04So I decided to keep my identity a secret.
00:48:06But I hope you can forgive me.
00:48:09My head is just spinning a little bit, so...
00:48:12Let me fix that.
00:48:16Yeah, um, you know what?
00:48:17I want the house back.
00:48:19I want the money back.
00:48:20I want everything back.
00:48:22Well, I'm your husband, so everything I have is yours.
00:48:25Well, that's more like it.
00:48:28What's that?
00:48:30Let me show you.
00:48:32Okay.
00:48:32Did you paint this?
00:48:36I painted it back in college, and it was exhibited just once at my graduation ceremony.
00:48:41Wait, why does this painting look so much like the one Stella submitted for the Monet Award?
00:48:49Oh, thank you for taking my phone.
00:48:51Oh, um, it's Stella.
00:48:53I need a minute, please.
00:48:58Hey, Stella, what's up?
00:48:59Meet me at the cafe on 3rd.
00:49:01Perfect timing.
00:49:02I was just about to call you anyways.
00:49:19What do you want?
00:49:20Why the rush?
00:49:21Have a drink first.
00:49:25What do you want?
00:49:26Why the rush?
00:49:27Have a drink first.
00:49:31Go on.
00:49:36You said you wanted to see me.
00:49:38You first.
00:49:39Yeah, I saw your submission for the Monet Prize.
00:49:42Did you really paint it?
00:49:43Of course I did.
00:49:45What are you suggesting?
00:49:46You're still lying.
00:49:48But I know the truth.
00:49:49Got you, bitch.
00:50:10Sophie?
00:50:11Sophie!
00:50:12Sophie!
00:50:14Sophie, baby, wake up.
00:50:16Sophie.
00:50:17Sophie.
00:50:18Hey.
00:50:19Hey, it's me.
00:50:20It's me.
00:50:20It's Ted.
00:50:21Can you hear me?
00:50:23Can you see me?
00:50:24Let's get you out of here.
00:50:25Come on.
00:50:27Can you walk?
00:50:31Are you okay?
00:50:32Can you see?
00:50:33Can you open your eyes?
00:50:35What happened?
00:50:37Okay.
00:50:38Hey.
00:50:39Let's go.
00:50:40I'm not sure if I trust you too much.
00:50:48Miss Swift is in trouble.
00:50:49Check the headline news.
00:50:51Can't be contained.
00:50:52Sophie Swift was caught publicly intoxicated looking like a complete whore.
00:50:56She was seen with an incredibly attractive man.
00:50:59I sure hope her husband is on social media to see this.
00:51:02What are you doing?
00:51:10Are you out of your mind?
00:51:12She's sleeping.
00:51:13Let's talk outside.
00:51:21You leave her alone.
00:51:23That's my wife.
00:51:24If you're even willing to entertain the rumor that she cheated on you, then you don't deserve
00:51:29her at all.
00:51:29Listen, I know you and Sophie were set up.
00:51:32That's why we're still here talking.
00:51:34What's your relationship with my wife?
00:51:36She's my best friend.
00:51:39I've known her a lot longer than you.
00:51:41Your best friend?
00:51:43Have you seen the news?
00:51:44Her reputation is completely damaged because of you.
00:51:46Look, I'll take care of it.
00:51:48All right?
00:51:48How?
00:51:50Because from my point of view, the best thing you can do is stay away from her.
00:51:59You're up.
00:52:07Why are you sleeping here?
00:52:09The doctor suggested you get some rest.
00:52:12I thought it was all a dream.
00:52:15You remember now.
00:52:16Tell me what happened.
00:52:22Where's Ted?
00:52:25He left?
00:52:26You were out cold all night.
00:52:28Did you expect him to stay over?
00:52:30I need to call him.
00:52:33I'll put it on speaker.
00:52:37Hey, Ted.
00:52:37It's Sophie.
00:52:38Sophie.
00:52:39How you feeling?
00:52:40I've already dispelled the trending headline about us.
00:52:43Trending headline?
00:52:47Why are you talking to my wife?
00:52:49Stop calling and sounding so husky.
00:52:52Okay.
00:52:52First of all, I am the one that called him.
00:52:55What are you, a little jealous?
00:53:00First of all, I am the one that called him.
00:53:03What are you, a little jealous?
00:53:07No.
00:53:09Tell me what happened.
00:53:10Stella called me last night.
00:53:14And I just so happened to have something to ask her as well.
00:53:17So I decided to meet her.
00:53:19I just didn't think that she would spike my drink.
00:53:21I'm calling the police and I'm getting my P.I. on it too.
00:53:23Okay, stop, Justin.
00:53:25No.
00:53:25Why?
00:53:26You got hurt, Sophie.
00:53:28I know.
00:53:29But there's one more thing I need to find out from Stella.
00:53:34It's...
00:53:35It's about my mom's death.
00:53:36Okay?
00:53:36I never suspected that she died from suicide.
00:53:39And I think her death has something to do with Stella and her mom.
00:53:43Did the police determine your mother's death was suicide?
00:53:46Yeah.
00:53:47And unless more evidence is brought forward, the police, they're not going to reopen the investigation.
00:53:52But don't worry, I can handle this.
00:53:54I will help you.
00:53:55Okay, but I need you to take care of yourself and get some rest.
00:53:58All right?
00:53:59Mm-hmm.
00:54:04Thank you, everyone, for gathering here today to celebrate our friend,
00:54:12the Monet Award winner, 2024, Stella Swift.
00:54:21Oh, yeah, I'm cute.
00:54:26This is such an honor.
00:54:28I did want to take a moment to congratulate my sister, Sophie Swift.
00:54:33She also took part in this competition, but if I'm not mistaken, you got third place, right?
00:54:39And I'm the winner?
00:54:42Well, come on, Sophie.
00:54:44Today's my big day.
00:54:44Have a drink with me.
00:54:47Stop pretending, Stella.
00:54:51You can't hide what you did to my mom, but I can give you a chance to tell me the truth.
00:54:55Everyone knows your mom killed herself.
00:54:59How could it be related to me?
00:55:01If you really think it was me, show me the evidence, then.
00:55:04How dare you?
00:55:15Justin.
00:55:17Everything okay here, Miss Stella?
00:55:19Yes.
00:55:20I was just talking to my sister.
00:55:22I just wanted to apologize for what happened at the coffee shop.
00:55:25I received a business call and had to leave early that day.
00:55:29I had no idea that Sophie would do such a thing and such a scandalous act to make headline news.
00:55:37I trust my wife.
00:55:41And the clarification announcement has already gone out to all major media outlets.
00:55:47I'd like to remind you that if anybody wants to play dirty tricks behind our back,
00:55:52you will get what's coming for you.
00:55:55Now, for the artwork and the painting that you were awarded for,
00:56:00by chance, was the inspiration drawn from the University of Paris' graduation ceremony
00:56:05five years ago?
00:56:08Mr. Lake, I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:56:10Might I remind you who you're dealing with?
00:56:17The artwork that you were awarded for?
00:56:20It's mine.
00:56:24The artwork that you were awarded for?
00:56:27It's mine.
00:56:27You copied it.
00:56:31Also, I know it was you that set up my wife at the coffee shop.
00:56:34I will not stop until I get justice.
00:56:37Especially if it's her mother.
00:56:39Do you understand?
00:56:39Let's go enjoy the reception, everyone!
00:56:54How about that artwork?
00:56:56Justin, what did you say to Stella?
00:56:58What?
00:57:00Is my wife jealous?
00:57:02Quit messing around.
00:57:03Okay, I heard that you mentioned the graduation exhibition at the University of Paris five years ago.
00:57:08I thought it was just a good opportunity to remind her about a lesson she might have forgot after graduation.
00:57:14And what's that?
00:57:15Copycats don't have nine lives.
00:57:17Justin.
00:57:18What?
00:57:25Justin.
00:57:27What?
00:57:31I don't know, I just...
00:57:33I see you differently now.
00:57:35What happened?
00:57:39Well, you are more handsome.
00:57:45You're no sexy.
00:57:48And adorable.
00:57:52Adorable.
00:57:55About manly.
00:57:59About more masculine.
00:58:05It's all about you, Sophie.
00:58:08I just want to protect you.
00:58:09You shouldn't put yourself in danger for me anymore.
00:58:12I know that's why you met with her that day, right?
00:58:15How did you know that?
00:58:16Because you're my wife.
00:58:18I'd like to know everything about you.
00:58:23It's my job to protect you.
00:58:26I just want to keep you safe, okay?
00:58:28Okay.
00:58:29Kendall?
00:58:38Sophie, wake up.
00:58:40Mr. Cooper and your father were conspiring in the office this morning, planning to remove you from your position.
00:58:45You need to come back soon.
00:58:49You need to get back soon.
00:58:51What?
00:58:52It's urgent.
00:58:53It's urgent.
00:58:54You need to come back to the company so we can discuss the next step, Sophie.
00:58:58You know what?
00:58:59Send me everything that you've collected on Mr. Cooper and I'll be right there, okay?
00:59:02Morning.
00:59:05Oh, hi.
00:59:06Coffee.
00:59:08Two cream, one sugar, just like you like it.
00:59:12I love it.
00:59:14That's it?
00:59:20Is there something you want to tell me?
00:59:24Justin, I'm...
00:59:27Sophie, whatever it is, just say it.
00:59:30I'll deal with it.
00:59:32I know.
00:59:33Um, but I have to get changed, so I'm going to talk to you later, okay?
00:59:45Patrick.
00:59:47Keep an eye on Swift Enterprise for me.
00:59:50Let me know if anything happens.
00:59:55Sophie.
00:59:56Two things.
00:59:57Good news or bad news first?
00:59:58Give me the good news first.
00:59:59So, I investigated Mr. Cooper, as you requested.
01:00:03And out of his female subordinates, two were promoted and eight resigned voluntarily.
01:00:09So, I did some digging.
01:00:11I found out, through gossip, that he was engaged in sexual misconduct with female subordinates.
01:00:18Well done.
01:00:19He is such a dickwad tool.
01:00:21Have you found any evidence?
01:00:22That was the bad news I was going to tell you.
01:00:24You know what?
01:00:24Contact those female subordinates and urge them to report to the police.
01:00:27And provide them with any legal counsel and cover all the fees.
01:00:31Already did it.
01:00:34Kendall, you are awesome.
01:00:37Okay.
01:00:37Let's go.
01:00:38Wait.
01:00:39Sophie.
01:00:40One more thing.
01:00:41That bitch Stella and her mother are here.
01:00:43Things are progressing a little bit faster than we expected.
01:00:45They're waiting in the conference room for us right now.
01:00:48So, just in case, I prepared the documents you may need.
01:00:52Okay.
01:00:55It's just funny.
01:00:57They can't wait to kick me out.
01:01:00Okay.
01:01:01Time for a counterattack.
01:01:02For the past two years, Swift Enterprises' financial statements have been a mess.
01:01:20And our market share has rapidly declined.
01:01:23Can someone explain the reason?
01:01:24What's the meaning of this?
01:01:26Are you trying to blame and oust your father and sister from this company?
01:01:29Mr. Cooper, you are the vice president.
01:01:33But I didn't think that you lacked even the most basic professional manners.
01:01:37You always mix business with personal matters.
01:01:40But what I just mentioned is a business matter.
01:01:43You little bitch.
01:01:45Now that you've become the CEO, you dare to be so arrogant towards Mr. Cooper?
01:01:50He's a veteran of the company.
01:01:52I was just as assertive during my first board meeting.
01:01:54So, what's the problem now?
01:01:56Pardon me.
01:01:57Who are you?
01:01:58Do you own shares in the company?
01:02:00Because if you don't, you don't belong here.
01:02:03So, leave.
01:02:04Now.
01:02:06You.
01:02:07How dare you.
01:02:09Mom, are you okay?
01:02:10Security.
01:02:13Don't touch me.
01:02:20Don't touch me.
01:02:23I can walk myself.
01:02:25Sophie, how can you treat my mom like this?
01:02:31This is a board meeting, not a parent-teacher conference.
01:02:34You did properly graduate high school, didn't you?
01:02:40Very well.
01:02:42Let's see how long you last here.
01:02:43Oh, oops.
01:02:45Wait.
01:02:46You must have forgotten.
01:02:47The board decides who's CEO.
01:02:51Have a try, then.
01:02:52I formally proposed the removal of Sophie as CEO of Swift Enterprises.
01:03:02Pre-review.
01:03:03I'm Sheriff Valor Ryder, I'm looking for Robert Cooper.
01:03:24Sheriff, that's Robert Cooper.
01:03:27You're under arrest on several sexual assault charges.
01:03:36Stand up for me, buddy.
01:03:37Come on, come on.
01:03:38Stand up.
01:03:39There you go.
01:03:40I'm gonna use his arms.
01:03:41It's a mistake, man.
01:03:42It's a mistake.
01:03:44It's a mistake.
01:03:50Mr. Landon, Mr. Hayes, what did you say just now?
01:03:53Right.
01:03:57We can go on to the next topic then.
01:03:59I've also found evidence of embezzlement within the company.
01:04:02And if she can admit to it voluntarily, I will consider it as her surrendering to the authorities.
01:04:12Stella, did you hear me?
01:04:13Well, why are you asking me?
01:04:14I've got nothing to do with this.
01:04:16Don't pin this on me.
01:04:18Kendall, get her out of here.
01:04:20Okay.
01:04:21Enough.
01:04:22Your sister's still young.
01:04:24You're ruining her life.
01:04:26You're being malicious.
01:04:27All of you, out.
01:04:30Still have nothing to say.
01:04:40Drugging.
01:04:41Embezzlement.
01:04:42Either a charge could land you in prison.
01:04:45This is about your mom, isn't it?
01:04:48I did not kill her.
01:04:49It was not me.
01:04:50Then who did it?
01:04:52It was your mom, wasn't it?
01:04:55She had something to do with this.
01:04:57I'm gonna count to three, and if you don't speak, I'm gonna take your case to the authorities.
01:05:02Just give me some time.
01:05:03I will get you the evidence.
01:05:07Good.
01:05:08I'll be waiting.
01:05:11I'll find justice for you, mom.
01:05:26It's okay.
01:05:27You can cry.
01:05:28My mom, Justin.
01:05:29I know.
01:05:30I know.
01:05:31You had a big day.
01:05:32You moving up?
01:05:33Yeah.
01:05:34It was a good day.
01:05:35I finally did it.
01:05:36And now I can make my mom proud.
01:05:59You did.
01:06:03Yeah, I didn't hear anything. I swear. Totally normal.
01:06:16Also, we should probably eat something. If you want.
01:06:20I know a really good French restaurant actually, so...
01:06:28Oh, that was fast.
01:06:31Alright, let's go. What are we waiting for?
01:06:37Why is no one else here? Did you book the entire venue?
01:06:43Yeah, I guess I did.
01:06:54I'll be right back.
01:06:56Okay.
01:07:01Um, what?
01:07:15Justin, what is going on here?
01:07:17Happy birthday, Sophie.
01:07:19It's okay.
01:07:22I don't celebrate my birthday though.
01:07:24I know.
01:07:28It's because your birthday coincides with your mother's death, right?
01:07:31Yes.
01:07:32These flowers are for her.
01:07:37These flowers are for her.
01:07:40It happened 20 years ago, right?
01:07:44I want her to know that you're not alone.
01:07:47I will always be by your side.
01:07:50I think she'd be happy in heaven knowing that.
01:07:54Thank you, Justin.
01:07:58Make a wish.
01:07:59Hey, Sophie.
01:08:13Hey, Sophie. It's Ted.
01:08:30Hey, Ted. Thank you. I am feeling better.
01:08:35Yes, I'm actually not home right now. I'm with Justin.
01:08:39Okay. Yeah, I understand.
01:08:42Okay. Bye.
01:08:47Why so happy?
01:08:50Nothing. Just enjoying the evening.
01:08:59Happy birthday, Sophie. You made your choice.
01:09:12Justin, wake up.
01:09:29Hey, wake up.
01:09:30What? What happened?
01:09:31I have to tell you something important.
01:09:34How important?
01:09:35Listen, the mornings are usually a really good time for us to share some intimacy.
01:09:39No.
01:09:42Aunt Susan is going to be here.
01:09:46Aunt Susan?
01:09:47Yeah, she's my mom's sister. She's basically the only real family that I have.
01:09:50She sounds lovely. And?
01:09:53Well, she's visiting, but she doesn't know that I'm married.
01:09:58Tell her when she arrives.
01:10:00Um, that's the thing. Could you not reveal your true identity as a CEO of, like, Enterprise?
01:10:06Why?
01:10:07My Aunt Susan is angry at my father for how he treated my mother, and so she doesn't think that marrying rich will work well.
01:10:14Plus, she has heart issues, and I don't want to stress her out, so.
01:10:18Gotcha. I'll just be your stay-at-home husband.
01:10:21Alright.
01:10:26You are going to love Aunt Susan. She's amazing.
01:10:29I'm so excited for you to meet her.
01:10:31Oh! Okay, she's here.
01:10:33We can do this. Do you remember what I told you?
01:10:36Smile.
01:10:37Yeah.
01:10:39You got it, boss wife.
01:10:41Okay.
01:10:44Hi, God, Susan.
01:10:46I miss you.
01:10:48Oh, baby girl, I miss you so much, too.
01:10:51I just got done touring Europe and came right over after getting off the phone.
01:10:55Oh, my God.
01:10:57Wait, uh, who's this?
01:10:59Hi, Aunt Susan. I'm Justin.
01:11:02Wait, yes, I forgot introductions. This is Justin, my husband.
01:11:09What?
01:11:12Husband?
01:11:12Sophie, you got married?
01:11:16Since when?
01:11:17This is a big deal. Why didn't you tell me?
01:11:19I was busy with the company business, and I wanted to surprise you.
01:11:24This is a big surprise.
01:11:26You have a good eye.
01:11:34He's handsome.
01:11:36And he looks like a nice guy.
01:11:38Very, very nice guy.
01:11:40Come on.
01:11:40Take a seat.
01:11:44So, Justin, may I know what you do for a living?
01:11:47Uh, uh, I...
01:11:53So, Justin, may I know what you do for a living?
01:12:04Uh, I...
01:12:05Um, I'm sorry.
01:12:08I just want to make sure you have enough time to spend with Sophie.
01:12:11She grew up alone for most of her childhood.
01:12:16Usually, I'm not that busy.
01:12:18Actually, I'd like to spend more time with Sophie if possible.
01:12:22Good.
01:12:24Auntie, I actually have a business call, so I'm gonna...
01:12:27I'm gonna go, but you guys chat.
01:12:28Justin, I'm glad to see that you support Sophie in her career.
01:12:36She's a workaholic, and often forgets to take good care of herself.
01:12:40She's very hardworking, and actually a really brilliant businesswoman.
01:12:44Are you accustomed to doing all of the laundry and cooking?
01:12:49Uh...
01:12:49Could you not reveal your true identity as a CEO of, like, Enterprise?
01:12:53Uh, yeah.
01:12:55Yeah.
01:12:56Well, it's almost dinner time.
01:12:57Do you normally make dinner for Sophie?
01:13:02Yeah.
01:13:03Yeah, I'm great at making food.
01:13:05Great!
01:13:06It's my lucky day.
01:13:07I can't wait to try.
01:13:08How about Sophie's favorite?
01:13:10Past alfredo.
01:13:12Great!
01:13:13Yeah, of course.
01:13:25Oh my god, Justin.
01:13:26What are you cooking in here?
01:13:27It smells so good.
01:13:29He's making pasta alfredo for you.
01:13:32Okay, you need to add salt, and you can't forget about that.
01:13:35Okay.
01:13:36Salt.
01:13:37You look a little unfamiliar with the kitchen.
01:13:41I'm very familiar with this kitchen.
01:13:44I'm in charge.
01:13:44I got this.
01:13:45Okay?
01:13:46No, uh, that is, um, that's sure.
01:13:50Something wrong?
01:13:52No, um, I just, I want to learn from Justin.
01:13:54He never shares any of his recipes with me.
01:13:57Justin, you shouldn't spoil Sophie so much.
01:14:01As capable she is, she needs to learn some basic life skills.
01:14:04Got it.
01:14:05Auntie Susan, why don't you share some of your travel stories with me?
01:14:09Oh, I have plenty.
01:14:12Where should I start?
01:14:14I'm Linda.
01:14:15Wait, what's this?
01:14:35Justin Lake, CEO of Lake Enterprises.
01:14:39Wow.
01:14:39Wait a minute.
01:14:40Um, I'm sorry.
01:14:45I'm, I'm the one that got this idea.
01:14:47No, no, no.
01:14:49I'm responsible.
01:14:50It's all my fault.
01:14:51Really.
01:15:07Sophie, I watched you grow up without your mom.
01:15:11And after she passed, you rarely smiled.
01:15:15But today, you're different.
01:15:18You seem so much happier than before.
01:15:21And I believe a big part of it is because of this man.
01:15:25Before, I didn't want you to marry a wealthy man because the way your father drove your mother out of the house was a tragedy.
01:15:32I know, Auntie, but Justin is nothing like my dad.
01:15:36Well, I can see that in the smile on your face.
01:15:39And the way he treats you.
01:15:40He genuinely likes you.
01:15:43I can see that he's going to bring you happiness.
01:15:46Thank you, Auntie.
01:15:48And Justin?
01:15:48Sophia can be a bit stubborn at times, but she's a big softie inside.
01:15:55You treat her well.
01:15:57Auntie, I will love Sophia with all my heart.
01:15:59Mom, that bitch Sophie is trying to reopen the case on her mother's death.
01:16:09It's been five years already.
01:16:13She'll never find out.
01:16:14But Justin Lake, the CEO of Lake Enterprises, the most powerful and richest man in town, is freaking helping her with the investigation.
01:16:23Hmm.
01:16:25We should strike first, then.
01:16:28Yes, we should.
01:16:29She's here.
01:16:41Turn off the cameras and follow the plan.
01:16:54Stop!
01:16:59Yeah.
01:17:04Boss, Miss Sophie's been abducted.
01:17:08Call my security detail and call the police.
01:17:12We need to rescue her.
01:17:13Tell me the address now.
01:17:21Bitch!
01:17:26Sophie Swift.
01:17:27You have nowhere to run.
01:17:31No one will protect you now.
01:17:40Sign it.
01:17:42You won't get away with this.
01:17:45No one's going to know once you're dead.
01:17:48Okay, I will sign it, but you have to answer me one question.
01:17:52Spit it out.
01:17:54Why did you kill my mom?
01:17:55Your mother's heart condition relapsed one day.
01:17:59I accidentally switched the medication.
01:18:04Who knew she was going to die?
01:18:07Oh, but you don't have to worry about missing her too much, because I'm going to send you to her very soon.
01:18:13Justin, no!
01:18:14Stop!
01:18:15Justin, no!
01:18:16No!
01:18:16No!
01:18:17No!
01:18:17No!
01:18:17No!
01:18:17No!
01:18:17No!
01:18:17No!
01:18:17No!
01:18:17No!
01:18:18No!
01:18:18No!
01:18:18No!
01:18:18No!
01:18:19No!
01:18:19No!
01:18:19No!
01:18:20No!
01:18:20No!
01:18:21No!
01:18:21No!
01:18:22No!
01:18:22No!
01:18:23No!
01:18:23No!
01:18:24No!
01:18:25What is happening?
01:18:27I didn't do anything!
01:18:30No, no!
01:18:31Justin, are you okay?
01:18:32What?
01:18:32Stop!
01:18:33You're okay.
01:18:33No!
01:18:34No!
01:18:35Leave me alone!
01:18:39Justin, you're bleeding.
01:18:40Oh, my God.
01:18:44Justin?
01:18:45Justin?
01:18:46Patrick, please help me take him to the hospital, please.
01:18:49Justin?
01:18:50Please stay awake, Justin, please.
01:18:53Oh, God.
01:19:00Doctor said he'll be okay.
01:19:01You should go home and get some rest, too.
01:19:03Yeah.
01:19:04Karen and Stella have been arrested.
01:19:06It's all over.
01:19:08We can relax now.
01:19:08No, I need to be here for him.
01:19:11I'm not going anywhere.
01:19:12You shouldn't be anywhere near him.
01:19:18I'm sorry, who are you?
01:19:21I'm Justin Lake's mother.
01:19:23Oh, Mrs. Lake, hi.
01:19:24I'm Sophie Swift.
01:19:25It's nice to meet you.
01:19:29I'm sorry about Justin.
01:19:35I normally don't interfere in my son's personal affairs.
01:19:39Not until I met you.
01:19:41You're nothing but trouble.
01:19:43What have I done to Justin?
01:19:44There must be some misunderstanding.
01:19:45Shh, shh, shh.
01:19:46Do not disturb my son's rest.
01:19:50Let's talk somewhere more private, hmm?
01:19:52I'm sorry, Mrs. Lake, but I'm not some sort of gold digger.
01:20:15You may not be a gold digger, but trouble certainly follows you wherever you go.
01:20:20I will never accept you into the Lake family.
01:20:23Mrs. Lake, I don't need your money.
01:20:26Hey, please, I love Justin.
01:20:29Love?
01:20:29Oh, you stupid, stupid girl.
01:20:35Fine.
01:20:36You don't want money?
01:20:39I have another offer.
01:20:41One you cannot refuse.
01:20:43I know your Aunt Susan has heart issues.
01:21:04Only the top specialist in Paris can cure her, but he isn't taking any new patients.
01:21:09He happens to be my dear friend.
01:21:11I can help you if you leave my son.
01:21:14So who do you love more, Sophie?
01:21:16Susan or Justin?
01:21:21Kendall, what's wrong?
01:21:22Aunt Susan fainted.
01:21:23I just found out when I arrived at your house.
01:21:25What?
01:21:27I'll be right there.
01:21:38Don't move on, Susan, okay?
01:21:41Okay, perfect.
01:21:42Now, keep smiling, okay?
01:21:44Miss Swift, Justin still doesn't want to sign the divorce papers.
01:21:56It's been three years and he still keeps asking where you are.
01:21:59Are you sure you want to avoid him for the rest of your life?
01:22:02Relax, he's not going to find us.
01:22:04His mom already set me up somewhere else.
01:22:06He's not going to track me.
01:22:07Besides, there's no chance between us.
01:22:09It's just a pipe dream.
01:22:10Fine.
01:22:11Take care of yourself and Auntie Susan.
01:22:14I miss you.
01:22:16I miss you, too.
01:22:18Bye.
01:22:30Is this yours?
01:22:37Is this yours?
01:22:40Are you ignoring me or planning your escape again?
01:22:45Wife.
01:22:45How did you...
01:22:47What about your mom?
01:22:55Well, it's taken three years, but I finally convinced her.
01:22:58I told her that if I couldn't be with you, I wouldn't be with anybody else.
01:23:01I won't let anything come between us again.
01:23:04Do you remember?
01:23:05This is where we first met years ago.
01:23:07Years ago?
01:23:08I believe you offered an American man some money.
01:23:13He was just robbed and verbally assaulted by a French man.
01:23:18It's you.
01:23:20It's me.
01:23:21Your dearest husband.
01:23:28That's my girl.
