00:00:00Rosie, Rosie, baby. When are you gonna let me marry you?
00:00:05You're my fifth marriage proposal this week.
00:00:11Come on, baby. Let me make an honest woman out of you.
00:00:17I am an honest woman. And I don't need saving.
00:00:25Come on.
00:00:30Come on.
00:00:55Any luck finding her?
00:00:57Rosie, you are in here every week. My answer is the same.
00:01:01Not yet. It's been seven years. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack.
00:01:08Then keep looking. I will do whatever it takes to find my baby girl.
00:01:14I mean, if only you had a picture or something.
00:01:18She was ripped away from me at birth.
00:01:21But I told you, she has a heart-shaped birthmark on her neck, just like me.
00:01:26Just keep looking, okay? I don't care what it costs. I won't stop until I find my daughter. And whoever has her.
00:01:41I don't understand why we're even here, Daddy.
00:01:47I told you, Lily. I'm buying Park Meridian Hotel from Tess's father.
00:01:51Promise me, Daddy, that you'll never get back together with Tess. I hate Tess. She never eats.
00:01:59You're the only lady in my life, sweetie. And you always will be.
00:02:03Now, why don't you take a look out the window and take in the sights?
00:02:08I love this city. And you will, too.
00:02:25She's beautiful.
00:02:28Beautiful? She's a hooker.
00:02:30Don't say that, Louis.
00:02:31Right. Sorry, boss. But she is.
00:02:34What's a hooker? Does that mean she's pretty? Because she is.
00:02:39I wish you would date someone like her instead of someone like Tess.
00:02:42I'm not dating anyone, Lily. Okay? Ever.
00:03:01Wait. Wait.
00:03:05Get your disgusting hands off me.
00:03:12Hey, watch out.
00:03:13Watch out!
00:03:19Watch out!
00:03:20Hey, watch out!
00:03:21Have you no decency? How dare someone like you touch me?
00:03:27What?
00:03:28What?
00:03:29What?
00:03:30What?
00:03:31What?
00:03:32What?
00:03:33What?
00:03:34What?
00:03:35What?
00:03:36What?
00:03:37What?
00:03:38What?
00:03:39What?
00:03:40No.
00:03:41What?
00:03:48What?
00:03:50What are you doing?
00:03:52Take it away.
00:03:53OH MY BABY!
00:03:58That baby belongs to the Lord, not to ashamed a sinner like you!
00:04:02You let this be a lesson to keep those legs closed, you shameful teenage slut!
00:04:07No!
00:04:08Sedate her! Now!
00:04:10I don't believe in God.
00:04:12Then you will rot.
00:04:18No, no, no, stay here.
00:04:23Are you alright?
00:04:38I'm fine.
00:04:40You call yourself a woman of God?
00:04:42She just saved your life!
00:04:44You should be ashamed of yourself.
00:04:45Get out of here!
00:04:49Hey, let me help you.
00:04:50I said I'm fine.
00:04:53I'm fine.
00:04:58Here.
00:05:07You're bleeding.
00:05:09Can I get you to a doctor?
00:05:10Do I look like the kind of gal who has medical insurance?
00:05:15Hey, wait.
00:05:17Take this, at least.
00:05:18You're wet, and it's cold.
00:05:32Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:05:33What's your name?
00:05:35Rosie.
00:05:37Rosie Dolores.
00:05:38That's your real name?
00:05:39It can be whatever you want it to be.
00:05:40It can be whatever you want it to be.
00:05:41Hey!
00:05:42That's my mommy!
00:05:44Hey!
00:05:56That's my mommy!
00:06:09That's my mommy.
00:06:11Hey, kid, wait.
00:06:14Hey, mommy.
00:06:16Hey, what's going on?
00:06:18That's my mommy.
00:06:23Lily, honey, we've been over this.
00:06:27Your mommy's right here.
00:06:30Always in your heart.
00:06:32I mean my real mommy.
00:06:34The one that gave birth to me.
00:06:36The adoption agency said Lily's mother died in childbirth.
00:06:39She can't keep hoping to find her again.
00:06:42Sweetie, your real mommy's gone.
00:06:44You know that.
00:06:45But that lady has the same birthmark I used to have.
00:06:54Sweetie, a lot of people have birthmarks.
00:06:56And you remember why you got yours removed, right?
00:06:58To make sure it wasn't dangerous.
00:07:00Well, we should tell that lady to get hers removed, too.
00:07:05Something tells me she'll be just fine.
00:07:12Let's go.
00:07:19Lewis, we're going to be late.
00:07:21Park Meridian and step on it.
00:07:22You might want to stop wasting time.
00:07:35I charge by the minute.
00:07:38Hello?
00:07:38Hello?
00:07:38Word on the street is you've made quite the lucrative business for yourself since you left me, Rosie.
00:07:54$10 a minute?
00:07:57Clearly, I've been undercharging for you.
00:08:02Let me go, Mitch.
00:08:05I don't work for you anymore.
00:08:07You think you can just walk away from me?
00:08:11That's not how this works.
00:08:13My sweet little rose.
00:08:15You're my prized pony.
00:08:17And I can't just have my prized pony
00:08:18trotting off now, can I?
00:08:25I don't belong to you.
00:08:27You're disgusting.
00:08:31You ungrateful bitch.
00:08:33I made you where you are.
00:08:35And everything you have, you owe to me.
00:08:39You?
00:08:41That Rolex on your wrist?
00:08:44Your mansion on the East End?
00:08:46Everything you own, my body paid for.
00:08:52Oh, what a great body it is.
00:08:55I'm done with you, Mitch.
00:08:59The only way you'll ever leave me is in a body bag.
00:09:05You're just a little whore.
00:09:08And if I killed you, no one would ever miss you.
00:09:15Brad.
00:09:16Tess.
00:09:17Sorry we're late.
00:09:21Bad traffic.
00:09:22You can make it up to me later.
00:09:25Over dinner, perhaps.
00:09:27I've missed you, Tad.
00:09:32Should we get down to business?
00:09:33Yes, I'm eager to discuss your offer to buy this hotel.
00:09:37It looks very promising.
00:09:37Not so fast, Missy.
00:09:43Time for you and I to have a little chat.
00:09:47I know you're the reason your father dumped me, you little brat.
00:09:53Maybe he just realized he deserves someone better than you.
00:09:59There is no one better than me, you little...
00:10:01Sweet thing, you can't keep me away from your father forever.
00:10:09And when I get him back, which I will,
00:10:13you're going to boarding school in Switzerland.
00:10:17And you can kiss bye-bye to your little life together.
00:10:22You might be Daddy's little girl,
00:10:24but you're too young to understand the power of a woman.
00:10:31You know that little rule?
00:10:33Where I don't sample what I'm selling?
00:10:36Well, I'm about to break it.
00:10:38And now I take everything you make
00:10:40and you can kiss that search for your little daughter.
00:10:45Goodbye.
00:10:49Oh, God!
00:10:52Oh, God!
00:10:54Never underestimate the power of a mother!
00:11:08It's her.
00:11:12She has my eyes.
00:11:17Where the hell do you think you're going?
00:11:19I need to see that little girl.
00:11:21I think she's my daughter.
00:11:22That little girl is Lily Williams.
00:11:26Daughter of billionaire Tad Williams.
00:11:30There is no way you're her mother.
00:11:33I just need to see if she has a birthmark.
00:11:35A birthmark?
00:11:36What kind of sicko are you?
00:11:38You won't get within an inch of that little girl ever.
00:11:42Actually, I will.
00:11:44Security!
00:11:45Security!
00:11:46Security!
00:11:46No!
00:11:48Stop!
00:11:48I need to see her!
00:11:50As I expected, your offer is solid.
00:11:52Let me run it by my lawyer and we can settle things up on Friday.
00:11:55But you know, I'd be inclined to sign everything over to you right now if you just got back with my Tessie.
00:12:02I'd love to have you as a son-in-law and keep the hotel and the family.
00:12:06I'll work on him, Daddy.
00:12:09Over dinner tonight, right?
00:12:11I'll make us a reservation.
00:12:13Something romantic.
00:12:16You don't understand.
00:12:18That's my daughter.
00:12:21You don't understand.
00:12:23That's my daughter.
00:12:24Oh, right.
00:12:25And I'm the Queen of England.
00:12:26Mom, I'm serious!
00:12:28Get off of me!
00:12:32What is going on here?
00:12:33I'm so sorry, sir.
00:12:34We were just getting rid of her.
00:12:36How did trash like her even get in here?
00:12:40We're looking into that.
00:12:42Daddy, I think you should file all of them for letting people from the street just wander into our hotel.
00:12:48After all, there are children here.
00:12:54You didn't actually think that someone would pay for you, did you?
00:13:00At this hotel?
00:13:02Get her out of here.
00:13:04Right away, Miss Thorne.
00:13:05There's no birthmark.
00:13:07She's not my daughter.
00:13:09I was wrong.
00:13:10Okay, I'm going.
00:13:12Wait!
00:13:14Mommy, you can't go!
00:13:18Mommy, you can't go!
00:13:21Mommy!
00:13:23That's right.
00:13:24She's my daddy's fiancée and my new mommy.
00:13:27Right, daddy?
00:13:28Oh, uh...
00:13:31You see, daddy couldn't get back together with you even if he really, really wanted to.
00:13:39Because he's engaged.
00:13:40To her.
00:13:41To her?
00:13:43There's no way he'd get engaged to someone as low class as this woman.
00:13:49If you can even call her a woman.
00:13:51Then why does she have his coat?
00:13:53I don't understand.
00:14:05You can't be serious.
00:14:09Promise me, daddy, that you'll never get back together with Tess.
00:14:12I am serious.
00:14:15Tess.
00:14:16This is my fiancée.
00:14:19Rosie.
00:14:21Rosie Dolores.
00:14:23That name sounds fake.
00:14:24Well, I can assure you, it's perfectly real.
00:14:29Just go with it, please.
00:14:33Oh!
00:14:34Oh, no.
00:14:35I'm sorry.
00:14:40Is this woman bothering you?
00:14:42Let me just take her off your hands.
00:14:44No.
00:14:44Sometimes she gets her place.
00:14:46I think she can talk to guys like you.
00:14:49Don't touch her.
00:14:51What the fuck, man?
00:14:52Don't tell me what to do.
00:14:54She belongs to me.
00:14:56Rosie belongs to nobody but herself.
00:14:59That's what you think?
00:15:01She's nothing but a lowly whore.
00:15:03I knew it.
00:15:07I'll tell you what, man.
00:15:08You want her so bad?
00:15:10Why don't you pay me for it, bitch boy?
00:15:14It's okay.
00:15:15Shh, shh, shh.
00:15:16Don't insult my fiancée.
00:15:19Fiancée?
00:15:20That's right.
00:15:22I'm his fiancée.
00:15:23And, um, this man is bothering me.
00:15:29No!
00:15:30This stupid bitch is lying to you!
00:15:33Mr. Thorne, do you mind if I handle this myself?
00:15:37By all means.
00:15:38This hotel will be yours on Friday, after all.
00:15:41Get this man out of here.
00:15:44And make sure he never steps foot in this hotel
00:15:47or any other Meridian property ever again.
00:15:51Of course.
00:15:51Then after you're done escorting him out,
00:15:54make sure you drop off your badge at the desk.
00:15:56What?
00:15:57You humiliated my fiancée, so you're fired.
00:16:01But, but, I've worked here for years.
00:16:04Then I'd like to clean house.
00:16:06Mr. Thorne, I would like a full audit of your staff.
00:16:10This is not the type of hospitality I expect
00:16:13from my hotel employees.
00:16:16Of course.
00:16:16I can't hide behind a rich man forever.
00:16:23Mark my words.
00:16:25You're a dead woman.
00:16:27Dead.
00:16:29Well, I guess congratulations are in order.
00:16:32As much as I wish it would have worked out
00:16:33between you and my daughter,
00:16:35I'm glad you found someone special.
00:16:37Both of you.
00:16:38Come on, Tess.
00:16:40Let's leave these love words alone.
00:16:45I don't know who you are,
00:16:48where you came from,
00:16:50but I'm going to find out the truth about you,
00:16:53Rosie Dolores.
00:16:55Just you wait.
00:16:56Thank you for standing up for me,
00:17:02but I'm going to go.
00:17:05Wait.
00:17:06I wasn't joking.
00:17:08Pretend to be my fiancée.
00:17:10Just until Friday.
00:17:12Why?
00:17:14It'll get that woman off my tail.
00:17:18Yeah, she's delightful.
00:17:19I'm sorry, but I can't.
00:17:25I have other things I have to focus on.
00:17:28I'll pay you $100,000.
00:17:31That could pay for a full-time investigation
00:17:33into my daughter.
00:17:38Do you know who I am?
00:17:42Do you know what I am?
00:17:45You're the kind of woman
00:17:47who looks like she could use a break.
00:17:49Aren't you?
00:17:59Okay.
00:18:01I'm in.
00:18:07Yay!
00:18:08Mommy!
00:18:11Lily, sweetie.
00:18:12This is only make-believe.
00:18:14Just until Friday.
00:18:15I know that.
00:18:19Now,
00:18:19where should I send for your things?
00:18:23My things?
00:18:25Your clothes?
00:18:26Personal items?
00:18:27Oh, this is all I have.
00:18:30But I don't understand.
00:18:32Send them.
00:18:32You'll live with us for the week.
00:18:35Me and Lily.
00:18:37Come on.
00:18:38This is going to be fun.
00:18:39Welcome.
00:18:40Welcome.
00:18:41Welcome to your new life.
00:18:44Here are your clothes.
00:18:53You will receive a hot meal three times a day
00:18:55and showers are on Fridays.
00:18:57Welcome to your new life.
00:18:59Where is my baby?
00:19:01What did you do with my baby?
00:19:04She's somewhere she will be well taken care of.
00:19:06I'm her mother.
00:19:07I should be taking care of her.
00:19:10No, I can't.
00:19:10I can't stay.
00:19:11I need to leave.
00:19:12I need to find her.
00:19:13You will never find her.
00:19:15And where are you going to go anyway?
00:19:18Who's going to take you in?
00:19:20This is the only place for girls like you.
00:19:25Rosie?
00:19:25Something wrong?
00:19:31It's great.
00:19:34I just can't believe this is my room.
00:19:37Lily, will you give us a second?
00:19:39Sure.
00:19:42Now, if we're going to do this,
00:19:44we need to be able to lay some ground rules.
00:19:47While we're together,
00:19:48no taking on other clients.
00:19:51Until Friday,
00:19:52I am the only one.
00:19:55Fine.
00:19:56And like you said,
00:19:58you're not paying me for sex.
00:20:00I may be a prostitute,
00:20:02but we're not sleeping together.
00:20:05Fine.
00:20:06And the payment.
00:20:07I want half up front.
00:20:09What?
00:20:10You don't trust me?
00:20:12I don't trust anyone.
00:20:17Okay.
00:20:19Half up front.
00:20:21Now,
00:20:22Tess is jealous and suspicious,
00:20:24and if it comes out that I'm lying to her,
00:20:26well,
00:20:27this whole thing will be ruined.
00:20:29And I can kiss the $100,000 goodbye.
00:20:34Just keep looking, okay?
00:20:36I don't care what it costs.
00:20:39I need that money to find my daughter.
00:20:46Why do you want this hotel so badly?
00:20:50My wife and I got married here.
00:20:54She died five years ago.
00:20:55And it is the only thing that I have left of her.
00:21:00I'm so sorry.
00:21:02Just don't tell anyone, okay?
00:21:03I wouldn't want anyone to think that Tad Williams was doing something for sentimental reasons.
00:21:08Your secret is safe with me.
00:21:12And trust me,
00:21:13I need this to work just as much as you do.
00:21:16Great.
00:21:17Then it's time to start pretending that we are love.
00:21:21And how do we do that?
00:21:24I need to be able to touch you.
00:21:28Like how?
00:21:29Like this.
00:21:34Like this.
00:21:39And maybe even like this.
00:21:43No.
00:21:44No kissing.
00:21:46What?
00:21:46I don't kiss anyone, ever.
00:21:48Not even when you're in love?
00:21:50I'm never in love.
00:21:53Well, you haven't met a guy like me before.
00:21:59I have met a million guys like you.
00:22:05And trust me,
00:22:07if I were to fall in love,
00:22:09it wouldn't be with a guy like you.
00:22:15Okay, there is one more thing.
00:22:19Lily and I,
00:22:20we are a package deal.
00:22:24So you need to be able to pretend to be her mother.
00:22:27Is that a problem?
00:22:28Pretend to be her mother.
00:22:32Obviously, if you were her real mother,
00:22:34you would have had to have her when you were, what, 16?
00:22:36Wait, how old is Lily?
00:22:39I'm seven.
00:22:40Seven years old.
00:22:41That's exactly how old my daughter would be.
00:22:44But she's not yours, Rosie.
00:22:46You need to focus on finding your real daughter.
00:22:48And this guy's money is the key to that.
00:22:53Of course.
00:22:54I'll be your mother.
00:22:57It's a baby girl.
00:23:02I have a girl.
00:23:05Now, I have a meeting to get to.
00:23:11Lily,
00:23:12you know what to do.
00:23:14We're going shopping, mommy.
00:23:20Shopping?
00:23:21What's wrong with what I have on?
00:23:26Trust me,
00:23:26when I'm done with you,
00:23:28no hotel manager will ever talk down to you again.
00:23:30This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
00:23:49You should definitely try it on.
00:23:51I couldn't wear something like this.
00:23:55Of course you can.
00:23:57It would look perfect on you.
00:23:59Clothes like this aren't made for people like me.
00:24:04That's right.
00:24:05They don't.
00:24:06How can I help you?
00:24:09Yes.
00:24:10We're looking for two cocktail dresses,
00:24:13three sundresses,
00:24:14a hat,
00:24:14sunglasses,
00:24:15and five pairs of shoes.
00:24:16I don't think we have what you're looking for.
00:24:20What are you talking about?
00:24:22You have like a million dresses here.
00:24:24We don't have anything here for your mommy, Sadie.
00:24:28Not for people like her.
00:24:31You're better off at the discount rack at Goodwill.
00:24:35That is where you got this hideous outfit from,
00:24:39isn't it?
00:24:39Well,
00:24:42get the fuck out.
00:24:47Excuse me?
00:24:48You heard me.
00:24:50Unless you're soratorily deaf and blind.
00:24:52Her outfit isn't hideous.
00:24:54I think it looks nice on her.
00:24:56You see what you're teaching your child?
00:24:59Dressing like that?
00:25:00In fact,
00:25:02there's a dress code policy here,
00:25:04and you're violating it.
00:25:06Me?
00:25:07You're showing more skin than I am.
00:25:09This is Valentino Couture.
00:25:13It's an entirely different story.
00:25:16Do you know how much this cost?
00:25:18$15,000.
00:25:21There's a difference between looking elegant like me
00:25:24and cheap like you.
00:25:26Do you know how many lives you could change
00:25:28with that kind of money?
00:25:29Why would I want to change anyone's pathetic little life?
00:25:34How did you even find this store anyway?
00:25:36My daddy owns it.
00:25:39What kind of lies are you spewing to this child?
00:25:43Making her think that Todd Williams is her father.
00:25:46You probably don't even know who her real father is.
00:25:50Come on, Lily.
00:25:52Let's go.
00:25:54Does your daughter know who you are?
00:25:56That you're a prostitute?
00:25:58What's a prostitute?
00:26:00Sweetie,
00:26:01it's when a woman who sells her body-
00:26:03Stop talking.
00:26:04Right now.
00:26:06We're leaving, okay?
00:26:07Just let us go.
00:26:08Oh, people like you make me sick.
00:26:11Why don't you just go and get a regular job?
00:26:13Selling your body?
00:26:14You are a disgrace.
00:26:19Don't you have any shame?
00:26:24Please, I'm a hard worker,
00:26:27and I need the money to find my daughter.
00:26:30If you can't even keep track of your daughter,
00:26:32why should I trust you with my schedule?
00:26:34You want a job?
00:26:36Go to college.
00:26:37Oh, hey.
00:26:53You want some quick money?
00:26:56I can help.
00:26:59I'm not ashamed of who I am.
00:27:02But you should be.
00:27:05Come on, Lily.
00:27:06That's from the children's line.
00:27:08You stole it.
00:27:12What?
00:27:14This is my coat.
00:27:15And you expect me to believe that?
00:27:17This coat cost $1,000.
00:27:20Don't touch her.
00:27:22A whore and a thief.
00:27:24Oh, I should have known.
00:27:26We didn't steal it.
00:27:27It's my coat.
00:27:29That's couture.
00:27:31No prostitute could afford to pay that for her child.
00:27:34Give us the coat back.
00:27:36It's freezing outside.
00:27:39Then go give someone a quickie in the alley
00:27:40to pay for a new one.
00:27:42How much do you charge?
00:27:44$5?
00:27:45It's going to take a lot of quickies
00:27:48to pay for that coat.
00:27:50Hand it over now.
00:27:55This might ruin my deal with Tad
00:27:57and cost me everything,
00:27:59but I can't let this little girl
00:28:01freeze outside in the cold.
00:28:02I'm sorry.
00:28:04We will not hand over this coat.
00:28:11You don't want to do that.
00:28:13Trust me.
00:28:14You don't want to do that.
00:28:16Trust me.
00:28:17Ow!
00:28:19You broke my arm,
00:28:21you crazy bitch!
00:28:22You haven't seen crazy.
00:28:24Oh, I am calling the cops.
00:28:26If I cause a scene at Tad's Boutique,
00:28:31he could cancel our deal.
00:28:33But I can't let this little girl
00:28:34go outside without a coat
00:28:36in the middle of winter.
00:28:37I'm sure Mr. Williams
00:28:39will reward me handsomely
00:28:40for stopping a shoplifter
00:28:42at his store.
00:28:44Hmm.
00:28:45And I'm sure
00:28:46he will love
00:28:48the publicity this will bring.
00:28:51Prostitutes
00:28:52frequenting his store?
00:28:54That'll be great
00:28:55for his brand.
00:28:56Let's go, Lily.
00:28:58We're leaving
00:28:59with
00:29:00the coat.
00:29:05Get to my Broadway store.
00:29:08Now.
00:29:08Thanks for setting up
00:29:11for me in there.
00:29:13It's my fault.
00:29:14If you hadn't been with me,
00:29:15none of this would have happened.
00:29:20If I hadn't been with you,
00:29:22I wouldn't have a coat right now.
00:29:26Why was that woman
00:29:27so mean to you?
00:29:30Well, sometimes
00:29:31people are pretty
00:29:32on the outside
00:29:33and ugly on the inside.
00:29:36I'd rather be ugly
00:29:37on the outside
00:29:37when I'm pretty
00:29:38on the inside.
00:29:40Lucky for you,
00:29:42you are pretty
00:29:42on the inside
00:29:43and the outside.
00:29:53Perfect.
00:29:54Let's get you
00:29:55some hot chocolate.
00:29:56I know.
00:29:57The best place.
00:29:58Oh, Mr. Williams,
00:30:08I didn't realize
00:30:09you were coming in today.
00:30:11I would have laid out
00:30:12all the finest pieces
00:30:13for you.
00:30:13That won't be necessary.
00:30:16I understand
00:30:17that you accosted
00:30:18my daughter
00:30:18in this store today?
00:30:20What?
00:30:21I would never.
00:30:23And I would have known
00:30:23if your daughter
00:30:24had come in here today.
00:30:25Clearly not.
00:30:31I didn't realize
00:30:32she was your daughter, sir.
00:30:33So if she was just
00:30:34some poor kid
00:30:35off the street
00:30:36ripping her coat off
00:30:37her would be okay?
00:30:38I thought it was stolen.
00:30:39So what if it was?
00:30:41I would rather
00:30:41let a kid in need
00:30:42walk out of here
00:30:44with an overpriced coat
00:30:45that let them
00:30:45freeze in the cold.
00:30:47This is a misunderstanding.
00:30:49You have to understand
00:30:50that the woman
00:30:51that she was with,
00:30:52that she was-
00:30:53Was what?
00:30:55She was
00:30:56a whore.
00:30:59That whore
00:31:01is my fiancée!
00:31:05And now this store
00:31:06is out of business.
00:31:09And that's too bad
00:31:10because she
00:31:11and my daughter
00:31:12were prepared
00:31:13to spend a fortune
00:31:14in here today.
00:31:15And at 25%,
00:31:17you could have
00:31:18bought yourself
00:31:19ten more
00:31:20of those
00:31:20hideous shirts.
00:31:23Pack up everything.
00:31:24The store
00:31:25is now closed.
00:31:29What?
00:31:30No!
00:31:32No!
00:31:34No!
00:31:37No!
00:31:41You're right!
00:31:42This is the best
00:31:42hot chocolate
00:31:43in the city.
00:31:43I can't believe
00:31:45it's from a corner store.
00:31:46Well,
00:31:47sometimes
00:31:48the best things
00:31:49aren't the most expensive.
00:31:51That's not what
00:31:52Tess thinks.
00:31:54What's the deal
00:31:54with Tess?
00:31:56She and my dad
00:31:56dated for a bit.
00:31:58Then he dumped her.
00:32:00She said she's
00:32:01going to win him back
00:32:02and then send me
00:32:03off to boarding school.
00:32:05What?
00:32:05Why?
00:32:06So she can be alone
00:32:08with my daddy
00:32:08without me.
00:32:10Who wouldn't
00:32:11want to be around
00:32:11you all the time?
00:32:12If you
00:32:14were my daughter
00:32:15I would want
00:32:17to be around you
00:32:17every single minute
00:32:19of every single day.
00:32:21Your daddy
00:32:22is very lucky
00:32:23to have you.
00:32:28Thank you, Rosie.
00:32:29For the best day ever.
00:32:34Tad.
00:32:35You
00:32:36created quite
00:32:38the scene
00:32:39in my store today.
00:32:40I can explain.
00:32:41explain how you
00:32:45stood up
00:32:45for my daughter.
00:32:47If she hadn't
00:32:48been with
00:32:48someone like me
00:32:50they never
00:32:51would have
00:32:51given her
00:32:52a hard time.
00:32:53You're right.
00:32:54And nine
00:32:54out of ten women
00:32:55would have given
00:32:56that woman
00:32:56my daughter's
00:32:57coat off her back.
00:32:58What you did
00:32:59in there,
00:32:59well,
00:33:00that is the kind
00:33:01of thing
00:33:01that a mother
00:33:02would have done.
00:33:03You sure you
00:33:03don't have a kid
00:33:04of your own
00:33:04lying around somewhere?
00:33:05I...
00:33:06I'm joking.
00:33:08Listen,
00:33:09Tess wants to
00:33:10have dinner
00:33:11with us tonight.
00:33:12I think she wants
00:33:13to scope you out.
00:33:14Which is why
00:33:15I want you
00:33:16to wear
00:33:17this.
00:33:21It belonged
00:33:22to my late wife,
00:33:23Marilyn.
00:33:24It was her
00:33:26favorite piece
00:33:26of jewelry.
00:33:28I can't wear this.
00:33:30You can
00:33:31and you will.
00:33:33We have to sell this.
00:33:35And when Tess
00:33:36sees you wearing this,
00:33:37well,
00:33:37she will believe
00:33:38that our engagement
00:33:39is real.
00:33:40What if something
00:33:41happens to it?
00:33:42I...
00:33:43It looks super expensive.
00:33:46Actually,
00:33:47it's priceless.
00:33:51But...
00:33:52I trust you,
00:33:53Rosie.
00:33:54You don't
00:33:57even know me.
00:33:58But I'm
00:33:59getting to.
00:34:08That birthmark,
00:34:09it's exactly
00:34:10the same
00:34:11as what Lily
00:34:12used to have.
00:34:16That birthmark,
00:34:18no,
00:34:19it can't be.
00:34:20The adoption
00:34:21agency said
00:34:21Lily's mother
00:34:22died in childbirth.
00:34:23You okay?
00:34:25Uh,
00:34:25yep.
00:34:26Fine.
00:34:30I can't
00:34:31wear this
00:34:31outfit.
00:34:32And the shopping
00:34:33trip was a
00:34:33disaster.
00:34:35Yeah,
00:34:35which is why
00:34:36I brought
00:34:37you this.
00:34:39That's the dress.
00:34:40I know,
00:34:41it's too
00:34:41expensive.
00:34:42It is barely
00:34:43enough.
00:34:45Look,
00:34:46what you're
00:34:46doing for me
00:34:47and Lily,
00:34:48well,
00:34:49I cannot tell you
00:34:50how much
00:34:50I appreciate
00:34:51it.
00:34:52We both do.
00:34:55Speaking of...
00:34:56your first
00:35:02payment.
00:35:03Right.
00:35:06Um,
00:35:07I have to take
00:35:09this,
00:35:09but I'll see you
00:35:10tonight.
00:35:10Yeah.
00:35:11Okay.
00:35:11This is just
00:35:12business,
00:35:13Rosie.
00:35:13You're not
00:35:14falling for him
00:35:15and he's not
00:35:16falling for you.
00:35:17Focus on what's
00:35:18important.
00:35:20Finding your
00:35:20daughter.
00:35:23Why aren't you
00:35:24dressed yet?
00:35:25Dinner's in an hour.
00:35:26Lily,
00:35:27this place,
00:35:28it's the most
00:35:29expensive restaurant
00:35:30in the city.
00:35:31The plates alone
00:35:32cost $200.
00:35:34I can't even
00:35:36pronounce most
00:35:37of these dishes.
00:35:38Who am I
00:35:38kidding?
00:35:39I can't do this.
00:35:41Yes,
00:35:41you can't.
00:35:42Because I'm
00:35:43going to help you.
00:35:47Hello?
00:35:48I'd like to
00:35:49order room service.
00:35:50Everything on the
00:35:51menu.
00:35:53Rosie Bickle?
00:35:56Dinner napkin.
00:36:00Dinner napkin.
00:36:01Salad fork,
00:36:04dinner fork,
00:36:05fruit fork,
00:36:06and I'm not
00:36:08sure what this
00:36:08fork is.
00:36:10You can just
00:36:10get rid of it.
00:36:14And bon appetit!
00:36:31Wait.
00:36:53How'd you learn
00:36:53how to do all this?
00:36:55My old nanny.
00:36:56She took care of me
00:36:57when my mom died.
00:37:01Wow.
00:37:04She's beautiful.
00:37:07My dad has never
00:37:08been the same
00:37:09since she died.
00:37:12Well,
00:37:13losing someone
00:37:15can change you.
00:37:18Have you ever
00:37:19lost someone,
00:37:20Rosie?
00:37:23Yes.
00:37:24My daughter.
00:37:27But I'm hoping
00:37:28very soon
00:37:30I'll find her again.
00:37:33I'm sure you will.
00:37:35And when you do,
00:37:37she's going to be
00:37:38the luckiest girl
00:37:39in the world
00:37:40to have you
00:37:40as a mom.
00:37:48Oh my god, Lily!
00:37:50What?
00:37:53Oh my god.
00:37:54What?
00:37:55I'm going to be late.
00:37:56Who is that?
00:38:22I believe I've
00:38:23seen her in a movie
00:38:24before.
00:38:36You look beautiful.
00:38:43He gave her
00:38:44his late wife's necklace?
00:38:47Time for this bitch
00:38:48to go down.
00:38:49So, Rosie,
00:38:51tell me about
00:38:52yourself.
00:38:53You certainly
00:38:54came out of nowhere.
00:38:59What does he see
00:39:00in her?
00:39:01He never looked
00:39:02at me that way.
00:39:04I've been around.
00:39:06I'm sure you have.
00:39:08The funny thing is,
00:39:10I couldn't find a record
00:39:11of a Rosie Dolores
00:39:12anywhere.
00:39:13Well, I'm not
00:39:18high society
00:39:19or anything.
00:39:21Then how did you
00:39:22and Tad meet?
00:39:24On the street.
00:39:26The street?
00:39:29That's right.
00:39:30My car nearly hit her.
00:39:33Daddy, you can't
00:39:37possibly sell
00:39:38your hotel to him
00:39:39while he's engaged
00:39:40to someone
00:39:41he met
00:39:41on the street.
00:39:43Sir,
00:39:44I hope
00:39:45that you would
00:39:46trust my taste
00:39:47in women.
00:39:48After all,
00:39:49I did
00:39:49date your daughter,
00:39:51didn't I?
00:39:52Rosie looks
00:39:53perfectly respectable
00:39:54to me.
00:39:55We'll see about that.
00:39:59I hope you
00:39:59don't mind,
00:40:00Rosie.
00:40:00I took the liberty
00:40:01of ordering for you.
00:40:03You have
00:40:03eaten lobster
00:40:04before, right?
00:40:05This wasn't
00:40:06on the room service
00:40:07menu.
00:40:08What do I do?
00:40:11Don't tell me
00:40:11you haven't had
00:40:12lobster before,
00:40:13Rosie.
00:40:14Of course.
00:40:16Go on.
00:40:17Eat it.
00:40:19Great.
00:40:20Mm-hmm.
00:40:30Oh, my God.
00:40:41I am so sorry.
00:40:47You said you met
00:40:48her on the street,
00:40:49Tat.
00:40:50That tracks.
00:40:51Okay, you know what?
00:40:52Hey.
00:40:53I swear.
00:40:54Don't.
00:40:55It's okay.
00:40:56I will never eat
00:40:58here again.
00:41:01Daddy,
00:41:02wasn't he
00:41:02one of our
00:41:02regulars?
00:41:03Looks like
00:41:04Rosie just
00:41:05lost us
00:41:05a client.
00:41:06Maybe you
00:41:07should find
00:41:07someone else
00:41:08to buy
00:41:08you a hotel.
00:41:10If I just
00:41:11cost Tad
00:41:12this deal,
00:41:12our contract
00:41:13will be over
00:41:14and I'll never
00:41:15find my daughter.
00:41:21I'm so
00:41:21sorry.
00:41:23Don't worry,
00:41:24my dear.
00:41:25That man
00:41:25was an asshole.
00:41:27He always
00:41:28sent his dishes
00:41:28back.
00:41:30You know,
00:41:30I've never
00:41:31had much
00:41:31of a taste
00:41:31for lobster
00:41:32myself.
00:41:34They used
00:41:34to call
00:41:34them
00:41:34cockroaches
00:41:35of the sea.
00:41:37I think
00:41:37I'll pass.
00:41:38You should
00:41:39feel free
00:41:39to do so
00:41:40as well.
00:41:40Daddy,
00:41:41do you know
00:41:41how expensive
00:41:42these lobsters
00:41:43are?
00:41:44These are
00:41:44pearl lobsters
00:41:45from the
00:41:45West Pacific.
00:41:47Maybe you
00:41:47should have
00:41:47checked with
00:41:48everyone
00:41:48before ordering
00:41:49for them.
00:41:49Oh, my God.
00:41:59You just
00:41:59can't get
00:42:00out of
00:42:00your own
00:42:01way,
00:42:01can you?
00:42:02If you'll
00:42:03excuse me.
00:42:04I know
00:42:16you're not
00:42:17who you
00:42:17say you
00:42:18are,
00:42:18Rosie Dolores.
00:42:20In fact,
00:42:20I know
00:42:21what you're
00:42:21hiding.
00:42:26I'm not
00:42:27hiding
00:42:27anything.
00:42:28Oh, come on.
00:42:30There's no way
00:42:31that Tad
00:42:31would choose
00:42:32someone like
00:42:32you over
00:42:34someone like
00:42:34me.
00:42:36You obviously
00:42:37have something
00:42:38over him.
00:42:39Is it so
00:42:40hard for you
00:42:41to believe
00:42:41he might
00:42:42just like
00:42:42me more?
00:42:44The richest
00:42:45man in the
00:42:45country?
00:42:47Yes, it
00:42:48is.
00:42:49Even in
00:42:50that dress,
00:42:51it's clear
00:42:51you are just
00:42:52a tacky
00:42:53nobody.
00:42:54The only
00:42:55thing that's
00:42:56tacky here
00:42:57is your
00:42:58personality.
00:42:59Now, if
00:43:00you'll
00:43:00excuse me,
00:43:01I have to
00:43:01go dry
00:43:02off the
00:43:02water,
00:43:02some
00:43:03bitch
00:43:03spilled
00:43:03on me.
00:43:04Don't
00:43:05you walk
00:43:05away
00:43:05from
00:43:06me.
00:43:20Whoops!
00:43:21I hope
00:43:22that necklace
00:43:22wasn't
00:43:23expensive.
00:43:24That necklace
00:43:25belonged to
00:43:25Tad's wife!
00:43:26You knew
00:43:26that!
00:43:27Oh, well.
00:43:28I guess
00:43:29you can
00:43:29kiss your
00:43:30engagement
00:43:31goodbye.
00:43:34Our deal
00:43:35is going
00:43:35to be over.
00:43:36I'm never
00:43:37going to
00:43:37find my
00:43:37daughter.
00:43:39The necklace!
00:43:41Go fetch,
00:43:42bitch!
00:43:43Good luck
00:43:44finding all
00:43:45of those
00:43:45pearls,
00:43:46Rosie Dolores.
00:43:48Why would
00:43:49you do that?
00:43:50You know how
00:43:50much this
00:43:51necklace meant
00:43:52to Tad.
00:43:53Yes, and
00:43:53it should have
00:43:54been around
00:43:54my neck,
00:43:55not yours.
00:43:58My father
00:43:59owns this
00:44:00hotel.
00:44:01If you help
00:44:01her, you're
00:44:02fired.
00:44:05I can't
00:44:06wait to see
00:44:07Tad's face
00:44:08when he
00:44:09realizes you've
00:44:10ruined his
00:44:10precious wife's
00:44:11necklace.
00:44:13I didn't
00:44:14break the
00:44:14necklace, you
00:44:15did.
00:44:15And who's
00:44:16he going to
00:44:16believe?
00:44:17Me?
00:44:18Or some
00:44:19whore he
00:44:19just picked
00:44:20up off the
00:44:20street?
00:44:22Oh my
00:44:23goodness!
00:44:24Rosie, you
00:44:25clumsy fool!
00:44:26I can't
00:44:27believe you
00:44:27just broke
00:44:28Tad's
00:44:29priceless
00:44:29necklace!
00:44:30I saw
00:44:34her do
00:44:34it.
00:44:35I think
00:44:35she was
00:44:35planning on
00:44:36selling the
00:44:36pearls all
00:44:37across the
00:44:37city.
00:44:38I know
00:44:39how much
00:44:39this means
00:44:40to you,
00:44:40so that's
00:44:41why I'm
00:44:41helping out.
00:44:43I'm so
00:44:44sorry,
00:44:45Tad.
00:44:46I should
00:44:47probably
00:44:47go.
00:44:48Yes, I
00:44:49think that
00:44:49would be for
00:44:50the best,
00:44:50Rosie
00:44:51Dolores.
00:44:52You don't
00:44:52belong here.
00:44:53Wait!
00:44:59Rosie.
00:45:00didn't do
00:45:01this.
00:45:02Yes, she
00:45:02did.
00:45:03We all
00:45:04saw her,
00:45:06didn't we?
00:45:08No, you
00:45:09did, Tess,
00:45:10because you're
00:45:11petty and
00:45:12jealous, and
00:45:13you can't
00:45:14stand the
00:45:14fact that I
00:45:15am finally
00:45:16happy.
00:45:18I didn't
00:45:19break the
00:45:19necklace, she
00:45:20did!
00:45:26How would
00:45:26you like to
00:45:27pay for the
00:45:27repair?
00:45:28By cash or
00:45:29check?
00:45:30Daddy, what
00:45:37are you
00:45:37doing?
00:45:38She will
00:45:38pay for the
00:45:38necklace
00:45:39herself, and
00:45:40not with a
00:45:40credit card
00:45:41tied to my
00:45:41account.
00:45:42All of my
00:45:43money's tied to
00:45:43your account.
00:45:44I guess you
00:45:45better get a
00:45:45job at this
00:45:46hotel, washing
00:45:48dishes, starting
00:45:49today.
00:45:52Daddy, please!
00:45:53No, I've
00:45:54realized I've
00:45:55spoiled you, I've
00:45:56ruined you, but
00:45:57no more.
00:45:58Tad, my
00:45:59daughter will be
00:46:00paying for the
00:46:00necklace in full,
00:46:02with her first
00:46:02paycheck.
00:46:03Let's go.
00:46:04I never should have
00:46:08come here.
00:46:09It was a mistake.
00:46:11You're right.
00:46:12It was.
00:46:17I shouldn't have
00:46:18brought you here.
00:46:19I should give this
00:46:20back to you.
00:46:21There goes every
00:46:22chance I have of
00:46:23finding my daughter.
00:46:24What I meant was
00:46:26I shouldn't have
00:46:27brought you here
00:46:28to eat this
00:46:28French food.
00:46:31I know just the
00:46:32place.
00:46:33No forks are
00:46:35required.
00:46:35Wow.
00:46:37Great.
00:46:38Oh, thank you.
00:46:40Two, please.
00:46:43Here you go, Ralph.
00:46:45Keep the change,
00:46:46all right?
00:46:51Take these.
00:46:53Come on.
00:46:54Come on.
00:46:56Here.
00:46:59You seem to know
00:47:00everyone here.
00:47:02This is my home.
00:47:05These are my people.
00:47:07Who is this woman?
00:47:09You know I grew up
00:47:10here?
00:47:10The only people whose
00:47:11names I knew were
00:47:12paid by my father to
00:47:13take care of me.
00:47:14He never would have
00:47:15bothered to learn the
00:47:16names of a street
00:47:16vendor, let alone
00:47:18eat at one.
00:47:18He was missing out.
00:47:21Shall we?
00:47:22Cheers.
00:47:22Cheers.
00:47:24This is the best
00:47:31hot dog I've had
00:47:32in my entire life.
00:47:33Something to remember
00:47:33me by.
00:47:36Mmm.
00:47:37Well, thank you for an
00:48:02interesting night.
00:48:03Is that code for
00:48:05total disaster?
00:48:06No.
00:48:07Actually, it was
00:48:09the most fun that I
00:48:11have had in a really
00:48:12long time.
00:48:14Then you need to
00:48:15get out more.
00:48:16I have never met
00:48:18anyone quite like you,
00:48:19Rosie Dolores.
00:48:20Well, if you go to
00:48:2215th and Vine, you'll
00:48:23find a dozen women
00:48:24just like me.
00:48:26No, come on, Rosie.
00:48:27You're nothing like
00:48:27women like that.
00:48:28Actually, I'm exactly
00:48:32like those women.
00:48:33You know, what we're
00:48:34doing here is just a
00:48:35different side of the
00:48:36same coin.
00:48:39I should go to bed.
00:48:41Thanks.
00:48:42Rosie.
00:48:45Dear God, if you
00:48:47can hear me, please
00:48:48bring Rosie and my
00:48:48daddy together.
00:48:49If you do this, I'll
00:48:51never ask for anything
00:48:52else in my whole life.
00:48:54Amen.
00:48:54I'm so sorry.
00:49:23Um, yeah, I'll just
00:49:26Oh!
00:49:34Oh!
00:49:35I thought we said
00:49:38no sex.
00:49:39Are you trying to
00:49:41violate the terms of
00:49:42our contract,
00:49:43Rosie Dolores?
00:49:50Not on your life.
00:49:53Dad Williams.
00:50:13Hey, what the hell?
00:50:14I've been calling you.
00:50:16You missed our
00:50:16appointment yesterday.
00:50:17Shit.
00:50:18I'm sorry.
00:50:20Yeah, you should.
00:50:20You know how much
00:50:25that hotel room
00:50:26cost me?
00:50:26Huh?
00:50:27I booked it and
00:50:28everything.
00:50:28I will pay you for it.
00:50:29As if someone like you
00:50:30has $1,600.
00:50:32I said I'll pay you
00:50:33for it.
00:50:34How are you going to
00:50:34pay me for the
00:50:35humiliation of being
00:50:36stood up by a hooker?
00:50:38I guess that's just
00:50:39something you'll have
00:50:39to deal with on your
00:50:40own.
00:50:40You think you are,
00:50:42Rosie Dolores, huh?
00:50:43Walking around like you
00:50:44can just do whatever
00:50:45you want.
00:50:46Remember your place.
00:50:47You're just a hooker.
00:50:48And you're just an
00:50:50entitled asshole.
00:50:51Would you call me?
00:50:55It's lucky we ran
00:50:56into each other.
00:50:57Now you can give me
00:50:58what you owe me.
00:50:59Who needs a hotel room?
00:51:00I'll do this right here.
00:51:02Get off me!
00:51:04Help!
00:51:04No one's going to help you.
00:51:06Because no one can hear you,
00:51:08you filthy little whore.
00:51:10Hey!
00:51:10No one's going to help you.
00:51:13Because no one can hear you,
00:51:14you filthy little whore.
00:51:16Hey!
00:51:18Get that out, man!
00:51:20Are you okay?
00:51:20Yeah, fine.
00:51:21You can have her when I'm
00:51:23done with her.
00:51:25You're done with her.
00:51:28You broke my nose, man.
00:51:30I'm going to sue you for
00:51:32all you're worth.
00:51:37Mr. Williams.
00:51:39Boss.
00:51:40Sir, I am so sorry.
00:51:42I didn't know she was yours.
00:51:43Just take her.
00:51:44Rosie doesn't belong to anyone.
00:51:48And certainly not you.
00:51:53Shouldn't you be at work right now?
00:51:55Instead of accosting young women
00:51:56in a dirty alleyway?
00:51:57I was.
00:51:58I was just on my way
00:51:59back to the office, sir.
00:52:00You gotta pack up your things!
00:52:02Because you're fired!
00:52:03What?
00:52:03No!
00:52:04What am I going to tell
00:52:05my fiancé?
00:52:06You're engaged?
00:52:08Dick!
00:52:11For your hotel bill.
00:52:11Wait.
00:52:18Were you following me?
00:52:20What?
00:52:21No.
00:52:21I didn't need your help.
00:52:23Dad, after Friday,
00:52:25you go back to your life.
00:52:26And I go back to mine.
00:52:29And this,
00:52:29this is my life.
00:52:31These are my clients.
00:52:32With what I'm paying you,
00:52:34you can afford to start over.
00:52:35Maybe even go to college.
00:52:36No.
00:52:39No, I need the money
00:52:41for something else.
00:52:42For what?
00:52:43No, what do you care?
00:52:45This is just business, right?
00:52:49You don't have to play the hero.
00:52:52In this story,
00:52:54there isn't one.
00:52:59Rosie.
00:53:00What are you looking for,
00:53:09Rosie Dolores?
00:53:16Rosie, I almost didn't believe you.
00:53:18You're not into anything illegal now,
00:53:19are you?
00:53:20Would you care if I was?
00:53:23Nope.
00:53:23I told you,
00:53:24I want you to step up
00:53:25the search for my daughter
00:53:26to full-time.
00:53:28How long will this buy me?
00:53:29About another week.
00:53:31I'll have another 50k on Friday.
00:53:33And another 50k.
00:53:35I need to find her,
00:53:36Steven.
00:53:36This is my only chance.
00:53:44Can I help you, sir?
00:53:46The woman who just left,
00:53:47what was she doing here?
00:53:48She's a client.
00:53:49That's privileged information.
00:53:56What was she doing here?
00:53:59She's looking for her daughter,
00:54:01sir.
00:54:04Her daughter?
00:54:05Her daughter was taken
00:54:06from her at birth.
00:54:07She's hired me to look for her.
00:54:09And have you found anything?
00:54:15The convent where she says
00:54:17she gave birth at.
00:54:18Sacred Heart.
00:54:19And before they could investigate,
00:54:21the place burned down.
00:54:27Any files they may have had
00:54:28were incinerated.
00:54:29Does Rosie know this?
00:54:31She's not paying me
00:54:32to deliver bad news.
00:54:34But she is paying you
00:54:36to find her daughter, right?
00:54:38I am a businessman.
00:54:39Something that you surely understand.
00:54:42Now, if you will excuse me,
00:54:46I am closed for lunch.
00:54:55Rosie, look.
00:54:56It's us.
00:54:58As a family.
00:54:59Lily,
00:55:00you know we're just pretending,
00:55:01right?
00:55:02In just two days,
00:55:04you go back to your life
00:55:05and I go back to mine.
00:55:08I know.
00:55:09I hoped you could be my mommy.
00:55:11Oh.
00:55:12Hey.
00:55:19Lily,
00:55:20what happened to your neck?
00:55:21Is it that bad?
00:55:27Am I ugly?
00:55:28No, no.
00:55:29Of course not.
00:55:34Where did you get that scar?
00:55:36I've had it
00:55:37ever since I was little.
00:55:39It's from a biopsy.
00:55:41They usually biopsy
00:55:42birthmarks.
00:55:44Lily,
00:55:44did your birthmark
00:55:45look like this?
00:55:47Yes, it did.
00:55:49Could Lily be
00:55:49my daughter?
00:55:50Is your birthday
00:55:52in January?
00:55:53January?
00:55:54No,
00:55:55I was born on March 13th
00:55:57in Mercy Hospital
00:55:59in New York City.
00:56:00Rosie,
00:56:01your daughter was born
00:56:01in January
00:56:02in the broom closet
00:56:03of a backwoods convent.
00:56:06Lily's not yours
00:56:07no matter how much
00:56:08you wish she was.
00:56:10Your real daughter
00:56:10is out there somewhere
00:56:12waiting for you
00:56:13and you need to find her.
00:56:16Bye, Rosie.
00:56:17Oh, I just want to make sure
00:56:18I get you a birthday present.
00:56:20Thanks, Rosie.
00:56:32This a bad time?
00:56:34Come on in.
00:56:38Listen,
00:56:39about...
00:56:40Rosie,
00:56:41I know about your daughter.
00:56:43What?
00:56:43Your daughter,
00:56:45the one taken
00:56:45from you at birth.
00:56:48How?
00:56:50How?
00:56:51Does it matter?
00:56:53It matters.
00:56:54That's my business.
00:56:55Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:56:57Don't walk away from me,
00:56:58not over this.
00:56:59I want to help you find her.
00:57:00Help me?
00:57:02Why would you help me?
00:57:04Because I...
00:57:05I can only imagine
00:57:08what it would feel like
00:57:09to lose Lily.
00:57:11It would...
00:57:12Destroy you.
00:57:14Exactly.
00:57:15Tell me about her.
00:57:18She was
00:57:19the most beautiful thing
00:57:22I'd ever seen.
00:57:23And losing her
00:57:24was the worst moment
00:57:26of my entire life.
00:57:27That's why you agreed
00:57:28to the deal.
00:57:29I would do anything
00:57:30to find her.
00:57:32And let me help you.
00:57:36I promise
00:57:37we'll find your daughter.
00:58:00What are you doing here?
00:58:21Oh, I thought
00:58:22we could have
00:58:23a little chat.
00:58:24Where are Tad and Lily?
00:58:26Looks like they're
00:58:27looking at schools
00:58:28for Lily.
00:58:29Isn't that sweet?
00:58:31Seems like they're
00:58:31planning on sticking
00:58:32around after all.
00:58:34Too bad you
00:58:35won't be around.
00:58:38Rosie Dolores.
00:58:40The most sought-after
00:58:41escort in the city.
00:58:46I have to say,
00:58:47it's kind of impressive
00:58:48that Tad would
00:58:49hire someone
00:58:50just to stay away
00:58:51from me.
00:58:52It kind of makes me
00:58:52want him even more.
00:58:54And what about
00:58:54the little girl?
00:58:55Are you planning
00:58:56on telling her?
00:58:57Or should I show her?
00:58:58You wouldn't.
00:58:59I would.
00:59:01You think a world
00:59:03like this belongs
00:59:04to you?
00:59:05You're nothing
00:59:06but a common whore.
00:59:08Tad Williams
00:59:08isn't your fiancée
00:59:09and Lily
00:59:10isn't your daughter.
00:59:12What do you want
00:59:12from me?
00:59:13Leave here
00:59:14right now
00:59:15and go quietly.
00:59:17They won't be surprised
00:59:18anyway.
00:59:19Prostitutes
00:59:20are notoriously
00:59:21untrustworthy.
00:59:23Can I at least
00:59:24leave them a note?
00:59:26Not going to happen.
00:59:28Your taste
00:59:29of the good life
00:59:30is over.
00:59:39Oh, rich boy
00:59:40finally got sick
00:59:41of you, huh?
00:59:42I knew it was just
00:59:42a matter of time
00:59:43before he finally
00:59:44saw you for what
00:59:45you really are.
00:59:46A mangy mutt.
00:59:47Mitch.
00:59:47I have a lot
00:59:52of eager clients
00:59:52just waiting
00:59:54to get their hands
00:59:55on you
00:59:55and they're getting
00:59:56very impatient.
00:59:59Don't make a scene
01:00:00now.
01:00:00Go quiet.
01:00:02You work for me
01:00:03now, Rosie DeLores.
01:00:04You'll never see
01:00:05the light of day
01:00:06ever again,
01:00:08let alone find
01:00:08that daughter.
01:00:09Rosie, you won't
01:00:18believe the schools
01:00:18they have here.
01:00:19Hello, Tad.
01:00:23Lily?
01:00:24Where's Rosie?
01:00:26Oh, her.
01:00:28I'm sorry to say
01:00:29she's gone.
01:00:31I guess that's
01:00:32what happens
01:00:32when you hire
01:00:33a prostitute.
01:00:37I guess that's
01:00:38what happens
01:00:38when you hire
01:00:39a prostitute.
01:00:41They're just
01:00:42in it for the money.
01:00:43Aw.
01:00:44Did you actually
01:00:45fall for her?
01:00:47Did you really
01:00:48think I wouldn't
01:00:49find out?
01:00:51I thought you
01:00:52knew me better
01:00:52than that, Tad.
01:00:57Tess,
01:00:58I think you
01:00:59should leave.
01:01:00Careful.
01:01:01I don't think
01:01:02my daddy will
01:01:03be too happy
01:01:04when he discovers
01:01:05the truth.
01:01:06luckily,
01:01:08your secret
01:01:08is safe
01:01:09with me.
01:01:10As long as
01:01:11you keep me
01:01:12happy,
01:01:13what do you
01:01:13say?
01:01:15Dinner tonight?
01:01:17Somewhere romantic.
01:01:20You lose,
01:01:21sweetheart.
01:01:22Welcome to your new
01:01:29home.
01:01:31I know it's not
01:01:32as luxurious
01:01:32as you become
01:01:34used to,
01:01:35but you won't be
01:01:35spending much time
01:01:36here anyways.
01:01:38Rest up,
01:01:39sugar.
01:01:40Your first client's
01:01:40on his way.
01:01:41Daddy,
01:01:58I can't sleep.
01:02:02Me either.
01:02:04I had a dream
01:02:05that Rosie came back
01:02:06for us,
01:02:06and we were a real
01:02:08family.
01:02:08We are a real
01:02:10family.
01:02:11You and me,
01:02:11Lily.
01:02:12You are all I need.
01:02:14No, Daddy,
01:02:15I'm not.
01:02:16I saw the way
01:02:17you looked at Rosie.
01:02:18Like you loved her.
01:02:21It was just a contract,
01:02:23sweetie.
01:02:23An act.
01:02:25And I am so sorry
01:02:26for getting your hopes up.
01:02:27So what?
01:02:28You're just gonna go
01:02:28back to Tess now?
01:02:34You're sure?
01:02:35Okay.
01:02:36Send over the footage
01:02:37right now.
01:02:43Daddy,
01:02:44where are you going?
01:02:45Rosie's in trouble.
01:02:52You said $1.50 an hour?
01:02:54Yeah,
01:02:54unless you want to
01:02:55add on a little
01:02:56special treat.
01:02:57I can do any
01:02:58of those things,
01:02:59Tula?
01:03:01Oh, great.
01:03:04Put me down
01:03:05for two,
01:03:05four,
01:03:06and, uh,
01:03:09six.
01:03:10We're gonna have
01:03:10some fun tonight.
01:03:12Sweetheart.
01:03:17Hey!
01:03:18Let it go!
01:03:20Hey,
01:03:20what the hell, man?
01:03:22You think you can do
01:03:22what you want,
01:03:23rich boy?
01:03:24You're in my territory now.
01:03:26In here,
01:03:27there's no rule.
01:03:37No!
01:03:39You might be a big shot
01:03:41in your world,
01:03:42but in my world,
01:03:43you just have a paycheck.
01:03:44No!
01:03:46No!
01:03:55Nothing like starting
01:03:56them out now,
01:03:57especially since your daddy
01:03:58would be there to protect
01:03:59her any longer.
01:03:59Hey, Mitch!
01:04:00Ah!
01:04:02No!
01:04:03Look at me!
01:04:05Ah!
01:04:05Oh, my God!
01:04:12Someone call an ambulance!
01:04:15Oh, my gosh.
01:04:16Oh,
01:04:17you shouldn't have
01:04:19come after me.
01:04:20I could not
01:04:21come after you
01:04:22because I love you,
01:04:25Rosie Dolores.
01:04:26Oh, my gosh.
01:04:33You don't even know
01:04:37my real name.
01:04:39I don't care.
01:04:44Dad.
01:04:45No, it was me.
01:04:47It was a fantasy.
01:04:48We belong in
01:04:50different worlds.
01:04:52And Lily,
01:04:52she deserves a mother
01:04:54she can be proud of.
01:04:56No.
01:04:57She needs a mother
01:04:58she can love.
01:05:00That's not me.
01:05:01I need to focus
01:05:03on finding
01:05:04my daughter.
01:05:05My real daughter.
01:05:09I'm sorry.
01:05:10I'm sorry.
01:05:13I have to go.
01:05:15Dad,
01:05:16before you do.
01:05:21Just tell me.
01:05:23You love me, too.
01:05:25I'm never in love.
01:05:40Especially
01:05:41with a guy like you.

01:08:01Oh, my God.
01:08:13Will, at least my dog?
01:08:19Tonight, I am pleased to announce the new owner of the Park and Reading Hotel Group, Tad Williams.
01:08:26Once these papers are signed, Tad, it's all yours.
01:08:31That's not the only thing that's his, Daddy.
01:08:34I've decided to give Tad another try.
01:08:37He's going to be spending a lot more time here now that he owns this hotel.
01:08:41That's wonderful news.
01:08:44We think so, too.
01:08:46What do you say, Tad? Ready to sign on the dotted line?
01:08:55Wait. Rosie!
01:09:01What is she doing here?
01:09:03I need to talk to Tad and Lily.
01:09:06Get any closer and I'll tell everyone who you really are.
01:09:11Tad will lose his hotel and that little girl will never look at you the same way again.
01:09:16Will Lily ever forgive me if she knows who I really am?
01:09:22That's what I thought.
01:09:25Now go.
01:09:26Quietly.
01:09:28Don't worry.
01:09:30I'll take good care of Lily.
01:09:32No.
01:09:33I will take care of Lily.
01:09:41Because I'm her mother.
01:09:45What?
01:09:46Lily.
01:09:49You're my daughter.
01:09:53Tad.
01:09:54Seven years ago, you and your wife adopted a baby girl.
01:10:00She had a heart-shaped birthmark on her neck.
01:10:04And the most adorable little roles you've ever seen.
01:10:10And that baby girl was mine.
01:10:16She was Lily.
01:10:18I always knew you were my mommy.
01:10:24This is ridiculous.
01:10:26She's lying.
01:10:32I've proof.
01:10:33Right here.
01:10:34This is obviously fake.
01:10:37She's just doing anything she can to get Tad back.
01:10:41You're pathetic and you're embarrassing yourself.
01:10:44No!
01:10:45No!
01:10:45No!
01:10:45You made my mommy cry.
01:11:00You little brat.
01:11:02What did I say to you about causing a scene?
01:11:05Time to teach you a lesson.
01:11:08Like I said, it's time for you to grow up.
01:11:12No!
01:11:12No!
01:11:12No!
01:11:15Are you crazy?
01:11:24Time for you to get what you deserve.
01:11:27Don't touch my daughter or the mother of my child.
01:11:33You really believe her?
01:11:35She's playing you!
01:11:39She's a prostitute!
01:11:41And Tad paid her to fake their relationship.
01:11:44Someone like Tad doesn't deserve this hotel.
01:11:47Wait.
01:11:48If anyone deserves this hotel, it's Tad.
01:11:53When I lost my daughter, I was tormented, wondering who had her.
01:12:01And if she was saved, if she was loved.
01:12:06And now I know.
01:12:08And I could not imagine a man half as good as Tad to raise my baby girl.
01:12:15That's a sweet story, but it doesn't change the fact.
01:12:23They lied to you, Daddy!
01:12:25Go ahead and rip up the contract.
01:12:29Go ahead and rip up the contract.
01:12:33No.
01:12:34Tad, I'm happy to sign my hotel over to you.
01:12:47Did you hear what I just said?
01:12:50You can't sell this hotel to Tad!
01:12:54Actually, I can do whatever I want.
01:12:55I own this hotel, not you.
01:12:57But they faked their relationship, just so Tad wouldn't have to be with me.
01:13:02And can you blame them?
01:13:07Go ahead, Tad.
01:13:09Sign the papers and the hotel is yours.
01:13:14Now, Tess, I believe you were wanted in the kitchen.
01:13:18After all, there's a necklace you have to pay off.
01:13:20Good luck, son.
01:13:26And congratulations on your beautiful family.
01:13:37Wait.
01:13:39This is your daughter was born in January.
01:13:41I was born in March.
01:13:42I was born in March.
01:13:50They doctored your birth certificate to make it harder for me to find you.
01:13:58Your real birthday is January 29th at 7.05 a.m.
01:14:05You were born during a snowstorm.
01:14:07A snowstorm?
01:14:08Mm-hmm.
01:14:09I like that.
01:14:13So, let's try this again.
01:14:20I love you, Rosie Delores.
01:14:26No.
01:14:27You love Sarah Clark.
01:14:34Sarah.
01:14:35I like it.
01:14:50I like it.
01:15:09I like it.
01:15:15I like it.
01:15:17I like it.
