00:00Maggie. Maggie, can we not with the dramatics? Logan's family, he's my...
00:09He's your business partner. And I haven't seen him in like three years. I would have been
00:14perfectly fine staying home by myself. The way you've been acting, I don't trust you alone
00:19while I'm closing the Tokyo deal. Oh, the dean told me about...
00:23It wasn't my fault! It's not like I got expelled, it was just a suspension. I...
00:27Enough! I don't want to hear it.
00:34Okay, I have to go. Behave yourself. Do you hear me? Yes, dad.
00:41Excuse me? Who the hell are you? Oh, I...
00:57Doudrop!
00:59Doudrop!
01:11My God! You've really grown up.
01:20Right, um, this is my house manager, Estelle. Come on, let me show you your room.
01:29Wow. Holy shit. Look at this place.
01:43Now, there's a few rules I need you to follow while you're staying here.
01:50Seriously? Rules. I thought you said I was all grown up.
01:56Be that as a man, this is my house. And you were respected. No boys, no parties. No going into my office. Curfee's at 10.
02:04Hey, you're kidding, right? What are you, my jailer? Fuck off.
02:08What did I say about respect? I'm sorry. Forgive me. Please?
02:22Um, I'll leave you to unpack.
02:26Hmm.
02:34Oh, fuck.
02:45And the fucking nerve, still treating me like I'm a little girl.
02:48Maybe it's time to show him that I'm not.
02:58Why are you messing around with father time, anyways?
03:00Ugh.
03:03Maggie, you can't have boys over.
03:06Carter's just helping me move in. Chill.
03:10Look, I know your type. Spoiled little rich girl.
03:16Think you can just come in here and act like you own the place?
03:21Mr. Mallory is a decent man.
03:24And he's finally got his life back together after his wife passed.
03:28I will not let you ruin him and all the progress that we've made.
03:33We've? Huh.
03:36Sounds like someone's got the hots for the boss.
03:39There is room for only one woman in this house.
03:43Ugh, so nice chatting with you.
03:45Maybe you should just let her have the old timer.
03:55Are you kidding?
03:57Hell no.
03:58I'm not giving up on Operation Logan.
04:00What the hell is Operation Logan?
04:02Mmm, it was this plan I had the summer I turned 18.
04:06It's embarrassing, but I did everything I could to get him to take my virginity.
04:12But he kept pushing me away so I thought he wasn't interested.
04:15But there was something about the way he was looking at me today.
04:18Jesus, Maggie.
04:19I think your dad would like you calling his best friend, Daddy.
04:23Ugh, my dad doesn't give a fuck what I do.
04:26But he won't even care if he finds out I dropped out of college.
04:30It's like, ever since Mom died, he's...
04:36Anyways, he left me alone this summer.
04:41So, I'm just taking care of myself.
04:45You know, I can take care of you too.
04:49Hey, what did I tell you about having boys over?
04:55Uh, he's just a friend, it's not...
04:57I don't care, I want him out.
05:01What?
05:03See you around, Gramps.
05:14What was he doing here?
05:16Nothing, just helping me move in.
05:18Right.
05:19I'm off to work.
05:21Never strike one.
05:22Alright?
05:23Behave.
05:25Yes, Daddy.
05:30Yes, Daddy.
05:39Maggie.
05:40What the fuck are you doing?
05:42What does it look like I'm doing?
05:44I want you, Logan.
05:46Right.
05:47Now.
05:51Maggie.
05:52Maggie.
05:53Go to your room.
05:54This is not happening.
05:57I know you want me.
05:59That...
06:01I...
06:03No, there's nothing you can do to make me want to touch you.
06:07I want to bet.
06:08I want to bet.
06:12Ah!
06:13Ha!
06:14Ha!
06:15Shh!
06:16Hey!
06:17Uh!
06:18Oh!
06:19Oh!
06:20Oh!
06:21Oh!
06:22Oh!
06:23Oh!
07:24I told you not to go into my office.
07:29That's what you're worried about?
07:31You are acting like a child.
07:34You have no idea where you're...
07:36We are not doing this.
07:40It would destroy my career and my reputation.
07:43Look, your father is my business partner.
07:47He would shut the firm down like that if you found out.
07:52Stop throwing yourself at me, please.
07:54You're embarrassing the both of us.
07:56Yeah, fine.
08:00I'm sorry.
08:06No, oh my God.
08:07I am so sorry.
08:07I didn't mean to yell at you.
08:08It's fine.
08:11I'm fine.
08:12No.
08:16Maggie.
08:16That's beautiful, Maggie.
08:36It's nothing.
08:41Just a doodle.
08:42It's incredible.
08:43You have a real eye.
08:44That's what Mom used to say.
08:50I'm so sorry, Doudreau.
08:51I know you've had a hard time.
09:05When I, uh...
09:06When I lost Lauren, I, uh...
09:10It was painful.
09:12But, uh...
09:14You're not alone.
09:16It doesn't feel that way.
09:17My dad doesn't give a shit about me.
09:19After Mom died, he barely fucking talked to me.
09:22Oh, except to tell me that an art degree was a waste of my time and his money.
09:26You know your father cares about you.
09:28No, he doesn't.
09:30No one does.
09:31I do.
10:04I, uh...
10:06Just wanted to say I was sorry about earlier.
10:10Um...
10:11Your artwork
10:17really is beautiful.
10:34Oh, Maggie.
10:36Oh, fuck.
10:39Maggie.
10:39Maggie. Oh, my fucking God.
10:44Oh, Maggie.
10:48Oh.
10:50Maggie, my God.
10:52Shit, I...
10:54I fucking knew it.
10:55This isn't what it looks like.
10:56Oh, so you weren't enjoying yourself
10:59to photos of me?
11:01No, absolutely not.
11:02So you don't think I look good?
11:05I do. I mean, no, that's not what I meant.
11:08I...
11:08You don't fantasize about me?
11:13I, uh...
11:14You don't want me?
11:17I do.
11:19But I can't...
11:20I can't give in to those feelings.
11:22Do you understand?
11:24Who said anything about feelings?
11:25I can't...
11:29Oh, my God.
11:35The Japanese are ready to close.
11:36They just need a few more assurances.
11:38Should be able to wrap this up in the next few weeks,
11:42a month tops.
11:43But more importantly,
11:44I wanted to talk to you about Maggie.
11:46I'm really sorry to make you babysit,
11:48but you're the only man I trust with my little girl.
11:52I know you'll take good care of her.
11:54Logan!
11:55Can you help me with something?
12:03Oh, yeah.
12:06Jesus Christ!
12:07Maggie, this...
12:08This is so fucking...
12:08You said you'd help me this summer,
12:10and...
12:11My hand's getting a little tired.
12:18This is wrong.
12:23No one has to know.
12:25It could be our little secret.
12:26You don't need this with me.
12:46We do this.
12:47We do it my way.
12:49We can have sex once.
12:51You hear me?
12:53Yeah.
12:55That is it.
12:56That is it.
13:04Is that understood?
13:08Yes.
13:11Please, Logan.
13:16Please.
13:20Oh, I have...
13:21We were...
13:22Yeah, why not?
13:25I thought you said you were desperate for it.
13:28Um...
13:29Wait...
13:29Wait, it's just...
13:31Well, what is it?
13:35Look, I know I talk of a game,
13:39and I want to...
13:40God...
13:42Believe me, I want to.
13:45I just...
13:46I've never done this before.
13:49Look...
13:50I'm a virgin.
13:57I'm nervous, okay?
13:59Hey.
14:00Look at me.
14:03Are you sure you want this?
14:06Yes.
14:06I do.
14:08I want this.
14:09I want this.
14:12I'm going to take care of you, Doudrop.
14:15I promise.
14:16I promise.
14:16God.
14:28Oh, my God.
14:30I don't know.
15:00I don't know.
15:30I don't know.
16:00I don't know.
16:30I don't know.
16:31That was perfect.
16:35I'm surprised.
16:37Honestly, I thought you and that guy were...
16:40Carter?
16:41Yeah.
16:42Yeah, we've fooled around, but...
16:47Oh, no, he wasn't the one.
16:50You know?
16:52You are.
16:57I think it's time we set some new rules, Doudrop.
17:08I hate rules.
17:10I, you know, we said one time, and I can't, I can't have these distractions right now.
17:15Now, the Tokyo deal is close, and your father...
17:18Don't worry about my father.
17:20I won't tell him.
17:21It's not like we talk anyway.
17:22It's not just that.
17:23I can't...
17:25I can't give you what you want.
17:30I can't give you what you deserve.
17:34I know you miss Lauren, but it's okay to...
17:47I'm serious.
17:48It's gotta go back to the way it was between us, okay?
17:54No more touching.
17:57It'll...
17:58It'll...
17:59It'll be good, right?
18:00We could...
18:01We could...
18:02We could put this behind us now.
18:04Right?
18:05We got it out of our system.
18:14Mm-hmm.
18:35We could...
18:36We could put the back of our system now.
18:37You know?
18:38We could put it over.
18:39We could...
18:40We could put it over.
18:41I think they're all negotiating this because Jen is British.
18:45She can check it out.
18:46It's okay.
18:47We could...
18:48We could just...
18:50We could...
18:51We could...
18:52We could...
18:54We could...
18:55We could...
18:57And then we could...
18:59I can't...
19:01We could...
19:02We could...
19:03Doodrop, I thought you went out.
19:21You're going to burn.
19:26Mr. Mallory, phone call.
19:30We said no touching.
19:31You need to go.
19:33See you later, Mr. Mallory.
19:40Get a fucking grip, Logan.
19:42She is your best friend's daughter.
19:44She is off limits.
19:59Maggie, I need to talk to you.
20:01Is everything...
20:01I can't do this anymore.
20:03Do what?
20:04I can't have you in this house anymore.
20:06But I've been following all of your rules.
20:09Okay, that time you were working out, but it was just a towel.
20:12And in the pool, it was just sunscreen.
20:14Look, I told your father I would look after you while he was in Japan.
20:19I'm going to book you a hotel in the city.
20:21You can stay there for the rest of the summer.
20:23I thought everything was good between us.
20:25You don't...
20:27You don't want me here.
20:40Look, I'm going into the office, and I won't be back until late.
20:45But I expect you out of here by the time I return.
20:51Is that understood?
20:52Yes, I understand, Mr. Mallory.
21:10It's just so frustrating.
21:11Like, I know he's hurting.
21:15I get that.
21:16But I can be there for him.
21:17I can help.
21:19You know, he's just doing the same shit he always does and pushing me away.
21:21Like, I thought it would be different.
21:27After we...
21:32Vian, come here.
21:37You know, there's plenty of other fish in the sea.
21:41I mean, who knows, there might even be fish in this tide pool.
21:46Oh, yeah.
21:47Mr. No-strings-attached.
21:48You want a relationship with feelings and emotions and...
21:51No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
21:52Fuck all the feelings and shit.
21:54I'm talking about good, clean fun.
21:56Where no one gets hurt.
21:58I mean...
21:59We had fun, didn't we?
22:03I think that's just what the doctor ordered.
22:05Fun, actually.
22:07Yeah, how about a party?
22:09You and me.
22:11Get the most out of this place while you're still here?
22:13Fuck it.
22:19Oh, man.
22:24One, two, three!
22:30Woo!
22:32Hey, girl.
22:33See?
22:34It's all fun.
22:35No feelings.
22:36I thought he actually cared.
22:42It's stupid.
22:42I know.
22:45Have you ever heard the term
22:48the best way to get over someone
22:51is to get under someone else?
22:55I would be happy to volunteer.
22:58Come on.
23:03Let's dance.
23:25I miss this version of Maggie.
23:28It's way better than
23:30Mopey Boomer Obsessed, Maggie.
23:32I'm not obsessed.
23:35Prove it.
23:36I miss this version of Maggie.
23:37I miss this version of Maggie.
23:38I miss this version of Maggie.
23:39I miss this version of Maggie.
23:40I miss this version of Maggie.

23:57I miss this version of Maggie.
23:58I miss this version of Maggie.
23:59I miss this version of Maggie.
24:00Maggie, are you fucking serious?
24:10Yeah, that's fucking funny.
24:15You know the rules.
24:17No boys.
24:18The rules don't imply anymore.
24:20You kicked me out, remember?
24:22Jesus Christ, Maggie.
24:24Can't you take a little responsibility for your actions?
24:27You gotta think about your future.
24:28What future?
24:29Your degree for one, and your career for another.
24:32Fuck a degree.
24:34I dropped out.
24:35You what?
24:37Who cares?
24:39I want to have fun.
24:43That's it.
24:44I'm taking you to bed.
24:45Party's over.
24:46Get the fuck out.
24:49Now!
24:53He's my guest.
24:54You can't just kick him out.
24:56Stop!
24:57Logan!
24:58Logan!
24:58Stop!
25:00Stop!
25:01Logan, put me down.
25:04Watch your head, man.
25:06Seriously, I'm not a child.
25:13Oh?
25:15Your room.
25:19Change your mind?
25:20No chance.
25:23Party pooper.
25:24All of it.
25:24Okay.
25:32All of it.
25:36I'm good at swallowing.
25:38Yeah.
25:40Mm-hmm.
25:40Come here.
25:43Mm.
25:43Why are you being so nice?
25:56Aren't you mad?
25:58Oh, I am mad, all right.
26:01But I told you I'd take care of you.
26:04And I meant it.
26:06Let me get you under the covers.
26:07Oh, wait, wait.
26:26Don't go.
26:27Don't go.
26:33Please.
26:34I'm not going anywhere.
26:46Hey.
26:47Get some sleep.
26:48And we'll talk in the morning.
26:49Mm.
26:50I'm not going anywhere.
26:51I'm not going anywhere.
26:52I'm not going anywhere.
26:53I'm not going anywhere.
26:54I'm not going anywhere.
26:55I'm not going anywhere.
26:56I'm not going anywhere.
26:57I'm not going anywhere.
26:58I'm not going anywhere.
26:59I'm not going anywhere.
27:00I'm not going anywhere.
27:01I'm not going anywhere.
27:02I'm not going anywhere.
27:03I'm not going anywhere.
27:04I'm not going anywhere.
27:05I'm not going anywhere.
27:06I'm not going anywhere.
27:07I'm not going anywhere.
27:08I'm not going anywhere.
27:09I'm not going anywhere.
27:10I'm not going anywhere.
27:11I'm not going anywhere.
27:12I'm not going anywhere.
27:13I'm not going anywhere.
27:14I'm not going anywhere.
27:15I'm going anywhere.
27:16Oh, morning.
27:29What am I going to do with you, Doudrop?
27:36Well, you care about me, right?
27:46And I care about you.
27:51You're attracted to me.
27:53Maggie.
27:53And I'm attracted to you.
27:55It's really not that complicated.
27:58You know that it is.
28:01You're half my age and your father is my business partner.
28:05He's my best friend.
28:07He doesn't have to know.
28:10I can't.
28:12I'm not interested in another relationship.
28:14I can't do that again.
28:18What if it's just casual?
28:22Seriously, Logan.
28:24When was the last time you let yourself live a little?
28:29Three nights ago.
28:30For you.
28:32And didn't that feel good?
28:44I don't know.
28:55Hey, it's okay.
28:57Just do whatever feels good.
29:00Well, what are you doing?
29:14I guess I don't know if it feels good, right?
29:24Logan?
29:25Can I speak with you?
29:26What the hell do you think you're doing with that girl?
29:47I just imagined...
29:47She needs to be disciplined.
29:50Did you see what she did to the living room?
29:51Yeah.
29:54I'm gonna talk to her.
29:56And it won't happen again.
29:57I thought you were gonna throw out that ungrateful little bitch.
30:01Estelle.
30:03Watch yourself.
30:06Maggie is...
30:08My friend.
30:09And her father is my friend.
30:10And I...
30:11I just hate seeing her push you around like this.
30:15You don't need the aggravation.
30:17Hmm.
30:18I hate watching you hurting.
30:21Remember how I took care of you after Lauren passed?
30:26I was there for you.
30:28Every step of the way.
30:30And I am grateful to you, Estelle.
30:34But Maggie, she's none of your business.
30:38Okay?
30:40Now, if you'll excuse me.
30:42I got a busy day today.
30:46Okay.
30:46Okay.
30:46Want to play hooky and go get some pizza?
31:07I, uh...
31:08I got a dozen reports to do, Maggie.
31:11I...
31:11Oh, come on.
31:13All work, no play makes Logan a dull boy.
31:15Oh, thank you.
31:28Oh, uh-uh.
31:30No work.
31:32You're going to have fun if it absolutely kills me.
31:39Hmm.
31:39Hmm.
31:39Hey.
31:53What was it?
31:54Nothing.
31:55Just...
31:56Just some girls from my old university.
31:59When I dropped out, they started this rumor that I...
32:02Became a stripper.
32:04You want to tell me why you dropped out?
32:08I'm guessing your dad doesn't know.
32:11Of course not.
32:13He prefers to pretend I don't exist anymore.
32:15I think I reminded my mom.
32:22After she died, he kind of just threw himself into work.
32:30I tried to do that with school.
32:32But after being there a while, I was just like, what's the point, you know?
32:37You only live once.
32:39You might as well have fun while you're here.
32:41I get it.
32:42I do.
32:43Trust me.
32:46But doesn't just having fun get boring?
32:49Don't you feel like you're wasting your potential by just...
32:52Wow!
32:52What is it with a third degree, dude?
32:55What?
32:55You a therapist as well as a CEO?
32:57You are a...
32:59talented artist.
33:02I'd hate to see you throw it away for...
33:04parties...
33:06and meaningless sex.
33:08Meaningless.
33:08Okay.
33:25I'm the therapist now.
33:27Let's talk about you and your afflictions, shall we?
33:31Afflictions?
33:32What afflictions?
33:33The rules.
33:34The obsession with work.
33:35I mean, you're literally cutting your pizza into bite-sized pieces.
33:41I've never seen anyone so controlling.
33:44What gives?
33:50When Lauren died, I was a fucking wreck.
33:53Couldn't eat.
33:54Could hardly get out of bed.
33:57Estelle had to nurse me back to health.
34:00She'll tell you.
34:01She is the reason that I am alive.
34:07I felt powerless.
34:12Works what saved me.
34:14It gave me...
34:15something to focus on.
34:18Gave me structure.
34:20Gave me purpose.
34:21Gave me.
34:22Gave me.
34:23I'm sorry.
34:25Hey.
34:30I'm sorry, Logan.
34:33I know how it...
34:36awful it feels to lose someone.
34:42But...
34:43I think it's time
34:46to stop
34:48and
34:48smell the roses.
34:57What?
34:58Uh-huh.
34:59Mm-hmm.
34:59Oh.
35:01Come on.
35:02Yes.
35:04Come on.
35:04Ah, come on.
35:06All right.
35:07Ah.
35:09Okay.
35:10Ah.
35:10Better?
35:18Better?
35:18It's good.
35:25Hey.
35:26Come with me.
35:27I think I know how to get back
35:28at those, uh, those girls.
35:31Come on.
35:31Come on.
35:33Come on.
35:34Follow my lead.
35:45You're a very impressive
35:46young woman, Miss Shirley.
35:48The courage it takes
35:49to leave school,
35:50to invest in yourself
35:51and in your business.
35:53It's inspiring.
35:56You know what?
35:56We're actually, um,
35:57renovating our Los Angeles headquarters
35:59and I would love
36:00to commission
36:00a few dozen
36:01of your paintings
36:02in our office.
36:04That sounds excellent,
36:05Mr. Mallory.
36:06I can't wait to begin.
36:18That was amazing.
36:19You know, I'm serious.
36:22I would love
36:23to buy a piece from you.
36:26Really?
36:31Um.
36:33Ah.
36:34More roses to sniff.
36:41Age before beauty.
36:42The blood's rushing
36:44through your veins
36:45And when I say it is
36:47That I'm never
36:50Ooh.
36:52Um, yeah.
36:55Wow.
36:56Try again.
36:58Okay.
37:05Here.
37:12Okay.
37:12Like that, yeah.
37:14Yeah.
37:15Try it again.
37:16Okay.
37:23Hey.
37:26You like teasing me, huh?
37:29Maybe.
37:31I think it's my turn
37:34to tease you.
37:35Huh?
37:39Let's get the fuck
37:42out of here.
37:43Mm-hmm.
37:44Yeah.
37:45Come on.
37:51Please, Logan.
37:52Oh, my God.
37:55I need...
37:56What?
37:56What do you need,
37:57Doudra?
37:58I need you.
37:59What?
38:00I need you.
38:01I fucking knew it.
38:10You little whore.
38:14Estelle,
38:15calm down.
38:18Maggie,
38:19I'm gonna handle this.
38:19You go upstairs.
38:20I'll be up in a minute.
38:21That's right.
38:22Run, bitch.
38:23Excuse me?
38:24Maggie,
38:25go.
38:25Hey.
38:32You do not speak to her...
38:33Does Richard know?
38:37You're gonna throw away
38:38that friendship,
38:39your partnership,
38:41everything that you've
38:42worked so hard for?
38:44And for what?
38:45I am not gonna sit back
38:48and just let you
38:49ruin your life.
38:52Either you end things
38:53with her,
38:53or I'm going to tell
38:55Richard.
38:57You're right.
38:58I'll end things
38:59with Maggie.
39:00It's for the best,
39:01Logan.
39:07Hey, Maggie,
39:08I need to talk to you.
39:11Maggie?
39:12Maggie?
39:15Estelle.
39:22Hey,
39:23where's Maggie?
39:25I thought you weren't
39:25concerned with her anymore.
39:27I'm her guardian.
39:28Where is she?
39:29She went out.
39:30Where?
39:30Either you end things
39:45with her,
39:46or I'm going to tell
39:47Richard, Richard.
39:52Another piece?
39:54You're right.
40:01I want things
40:02with Maggie.
40:02Maggie.
40:03Who's that?
40:05Who's that?
40:06Who's that?
40:06Who's that?
40:07Who's that?
40:07Who's that?
40:08It's just a disguise.
40:10It gets you nowhere.
40:15Oh,
40:16you know what they say.
40:20Stand your age.
40:22I've got to stay,
40:25stay here.
40:29The hunters will hunt,
40:31take us home.
40:36Oh, sorry.
40:40What are you doing here?
40:41What?
40:42You get lost
40:43on your way to the office?
40:44How much have you had
40:46to drink?
40:47That is none of my,
40:49your business,
40:51mister.
40:52Maggie,
40:52let's just,
40:53let's go home.
40:54No.
40:56I'm not going to go,
40:57Hugh.
40:57Maggie,
40:57please,
40:58listen,
40:58I know that you're
40:59upset with me,
41:00but you shouldn't be
41:00out alone when you're
41:01this drunk.
41:02Since when do you
41:03give a shit?
41:04Of course I do.
41:05You know,
41:05you want me to come
41:06home with you?
41:08Drink me for it.
41:10You out drink me,
41:11and then I'll go.
41:13Do you?
41:17Seriously.
41:19Seriously.
41:20You always made me
41:20play by your dumb rules.
41:22Now you play by mine.
41:26Fine.
41:27You're on.
41:30Are you sure you
41:34want to do this?
41:35Where you can't,
41:36you bub,
41:36old man.
41:38Three,
41:39two,
41:39one,
41:40go.
41:43You can tap out
42:08any time.
42:08never.
42:13Oh,
42:14I think I'll take my prize
42:26now.
42:26What? No! You cheated!
42:29I didn't run!
42:35Hey, let me help you take your boots off.
42:39I don't need your help.
42:44Oh, yeah?
42:46You are a fucking coward. You know that?
42:50And you are drunk. You know that?
42:53Hmm. Well, you're a drunk, too.
43:00Yeah.
43:05You are a fucking impossible spoiled brat.
43:13And you love it.
43:16Damn it. Just fuck me already.
43:28Oh, my God.
43:29Oh, my God.
43:31Oh, my God.
43:52Mm-mm-mm.
43:53Stop.
43:55New steps up.
43:56Stop searching.
43:57Oh, yeah?
44:03Now I've got you.
44:04Yes, you do.
44:08So, what's on the agenda today?
44:12Client lunches, quarterly reports, maybe even a board meeting.
44:18Actually, I thought I'd take the day off today.
44:20I could make some pancakes, chill in the jacuzzi.
44:25Maybe I'll talk about that painting I'm going to buy from you.
44:28What do you say?
44:30Race you to the kitchen.
44:33Come on, old man, keep up.
44:42Stop it, don't you?
44:44Put me down, you're going to break your back.
44:47Maggie.
44:50Uh, Dad, what are you doing here?
44:56Richard, I realized you'd be back so soon.
44:59I called him.
45:03She said something was wrong?
45:06What's going on?
45:07Go on, tell him.
45:13Uh, Dad, Logan and I are...
45:18Maggie dropped out of school.
45:20You what?
45:21Is this true?
45:23Yes, but I...
45:24Go, go to your room.
45:25Pack your things.
45:26I'll deal with you later.
45:27Dad!
45:28Go!
45:32Put some clothes on, for God's sake.
45:35Logan, I am so sorry you had to deal with this.
45:37I told her to behave herself.
45:39Mr. Shirley, I actually invited you here to discuss something else.
45:44That'll be all, Estelle.
45:53Again, my apologies.
45:55We'll be out of your hair soon enough.
45:57It's okay.
45:58Hey, there are a couple of last-minute changes I want to do to the Tokyo contract before I get your eyes on it.
46:03Do you mind if I use your office?
46:05Um, yeah, okay.
46:08Come on, man.
46:09Cheer up.
46:10This deal is everything you wanted, right?
46:13Okay.
46:14Get out.
46:30Maggie.
46:31Hey.
46:32What the hell was that?
46:34What, you're just gonna throw me to the wolves to save your own ass?
46:36He's your father, not the wolves.
46:37I can't believe you would do that to me.
46:40Why didn't you just tell him that we...
46:41Because we can't.
46:42Okay, we can't just tell him.
46:46Look.
46:48I know that's what I mean.
46:49My business.
46:51My whole life.
46:52It'll implode.
46:53If this gets out.
46:55Your whole life.
46:56You know how much this means to me.
46:59Don't I mean something to you?
47:02We love each other.
47:04Right?
47:07You can't keep hiding behind the business anymore, Logan.
47:10You need to live.
47:13You need to love.
47:14And be loved.
47:16I know you're afraid.
47:19You think I wasn't scared to let you in?
47:22It's okay.
47:23Don't let someone take care of you.
47:26You taught me that.
47:27Max.
47:36I can't.
47:38I can't do it, Maggie.
47:45Yeah, I...
47:45I care about you.
47:47But I can't just give up...
47:49I can't give up everything that I've worked for.
47:51I am so sorry.
47:57Maggie, you ready?
47:59Let's go.
48:01Yeah, Dad.
48:05I'm done here.
48:06Okay, okay.
48:23I will call the dean on Monday
48:25and see what kind of magic I can pull off
48:27to get you back into class.
48:28I'm not going.
48:29I know what's best for you, Maggie.
48:31I'm your father.
48:32Right.
48:33Father of the fucking year.
48:34Excuse me?
48:36You left Mom and me
48:37months before she died.
48:41I had to figure out
48:42how to deal with not having a mom
48:43all on my own.
48:45And yeah,
48:46you know, maybe
48:47it was in the healthiest way.
48:49But I'm trying to be better.
48:52So fuck you.
48:54You don't get to just come in here
48:55and be my dad now.
48:57How dare you talk to me like that?
48:59After all the fucking money
49:00I put in that school,
49:01I'm doing my absolute best
49:03trying to provide for you.
49:04Hey, Richard.
49:06Relax, man.
49:07She's not...
49:08Wait, why are you defending her?
49:10She's just a spoiled brat
49:12who has no idea
49:13how the real world works.
49:15Hey, don't talk about her like that.
49:17Oh.
49:18Why are you getting involved, Logan?
49:20This is none of your business.
49:23It is my business.
49:24Because I love her.
49:28What?
49:33I love your daughter.
49:38This summer,
49:39staying in the same house,
49:41we fell in love.
49:43Estelle threatened to expose
49:45our love to you
49:45if I didn't break things off,
49:47and I did.
49:48At first.
49:48You know,
49:50I wanted to protect our business,
49:52I wanted to protect our friendship,
49:53but I can't do it anymore.
49:56I don't want to.
49:57I love you.
50:01Do drop.
50:07You fucking monster!
50:09That's my little girl!
50:10No, come here.
50:11Stop!
50:11Don't hurt him!
50:12I'm not a little girl anymore!
50:14I'm an adult.
50:15I'm fully capable of...
50:16He took advantage of you, man.
50:18No, he didn't!
50:19I love him.
50:21You and I
50:22are done.
50:30Sorry.
50:32I can't believe you did that.
50:34You were right about everything.
50:35One of the reasons
50:36I love you.
50:40What about the deal
50:41and your business
50:42and your business?
50:42No, there's more to life
50:43than work.
50:44You taught me that.
50:47Hmm?
50:48Besides,
50:49maybe it's time
50:50I branch off on my own,
50:51right?
50:51I start my own company.
50:54What the hell?
50:57What are we gonna do now?
50:59I have an idea.
51:03Estelle,
51:04come in here.
51:09What the hell
51:09is she still doing here?
51:12Do you want to do the honors?
51:13Do you want to do the honors?
51:21You were right
51:22about there only being
51:23enough room for one woman
51:24in this house.
51:25But,
51:26unfortunately for you,
51:27that woman is me.
51:29So,
51:30fuck off,
51:32why don't you?
51:32Logan!
51:34Logan!
51:36Logan!
51:38Please,
51:39the only reason
51:39I called him
51:40is because I care about you.
51:41You blackmailed me
51:43because you care about me?
51:44Seriously?
51:46Just,
51:46just go,
51:47Estelle.
51:47Your services
51:47are no longer required.
51:54God,
51:55that felt good.
51:55I'm sorry
52:01about your father.
52:03It's fine.
52:04He's hardly
52:05part of my life anyways.
52:08It's okay.
52:10I'm okay.
52:12I'm better than okay
52:13because I have you.
52:15Ben?
52:24Um,
52:25yeah.
52:26Just give me a few minutes.
52:28I'll be up soon.
52:30I mean it.
52:31No more
52:32fucking
52:32psycho housekeeper
52:34to keep me distracted
52:34from you.
52:41All right.
52:45Yeah,
52:52hey,
52:53it's me.
52:53Don't
52:54hang up.
53:05What is this?
53:07I'm reaching out
53:08to CalArts
53:08seeing if he'll
53:09take me as a chance
53:10for next semester.
53:12You inspired me.
53:13Don't worry.
53:15I'll still
53:16honor your commission.
53:24Expecting company?
53:28Come here.
53:39What the hell
53:40is you doing here?
53:41Maggie,
53:41I invited him over.
53:44Hear him out.
53:53I
53:54wanted to apologize
53:55to you both.
53:57I know I reacted poorly.
53:59That's an understatement.
54:01Nice.
54:02Come on.
54:02After your mom
54:04passed away,
54:05I was so ashamed.
54:08I hated myself
54:09for not being there.
54:11For not putting my family
54:12before my work.
54:15And instead of
54:16talking to you,
54:18I doubled down.
54:20I said to myself
54:21that I was doing it
54:22for you
54:23and that you'd be better off
54:24without me in your life.
54:25But I was wrong.
54:27I can see that now.
54:30I'm so sorry, Maggie.
54:36Logan,
54:37I'm proud of you
54:39for not making
54:40the same mistake I did.
54:42You're a good man.
54:44A man I'm proud
54:44to call
54:45my business partner.
54:48But just so you know,
54:50if you ever hurt her again,
54:52you'll get worse
54:53for me than a black guy.
54:54You understand?
54:54Does that mean
55:03we have your blessing?
55:09You do.
55:12You do.
55:24I was not expecting that.
55:40What the hell
55:41did you say to him?
55:42I told him the truth.
55:44That you're
55:44an incredible young woman.
55:46You're smart.
55:48You were talented.
55:50Funny.
55:52But after Lauren,
55:54I never thought
55:54I would love again.
55:56That I would truly
55:56live again.
55:59But you
56:00taught me
56:02how to do both.
56:04That I would understand
56:06if he'd want
56:07nothing to do with me.
56:10But he would be
56:11an idiot
56:11to cut you
56:13out of his life.
56:18Of course.
56:19I would do
56:20anything for you.
56:22I love you,
56:23do drop.
56:26And I love you,
56:28Logan.
