00:13:45Well, I think that the contract says that this is my room.
00:14:06Good night, husband.
00:14:09And this is where Mr. Thorne likes to entertain of the evening.
00:14:22The room on the left is the kitchen.
00:14:34And we have the West Wing Library and the East Wing Pool.
00:14:42How do you find anything in here?
00:14:45One adapts, madam.
00:14:47And this room is the...
00:15:00Oh, dear.
00:15:04Would you excuse me?
00:15:05Of course.
00:15:06Apologies.
00:15:08What are you doing here?
00:15:33What are you doing here?
00:15:40Oh, my gosh.
00:16:05Problem?
00:16:06This is...
00:16:07a lot.
00:16:08The contract stipulates appropriate attire for all occasions, including tonight's charity
00:16:18gala.
00:16:19I...
00:16:20I can't accept this.
00:16:21You can.
00:16:22And you will.
00:16:23Unless you want to attend the event in jeans.
00:16:28You know, this doesn't mean that I like you.
00:16:33Wouldn't dream of it.
00:16:35Ready for your debut, Mrs. Thorne?
00:16:49Yes, I am, Mr. Thorne.
00:16:59Hi.
00:17:04And then I said, do you want me to cut this steak?
00:17:06I don't need a knife.
00:17:07I need a chainsaw.
00:17:09Okay.
00:17:10Jackie, there you are.
00:17:13Warren tells me the Morrison deal is all in the bag.
00:17:16We simply must celebrate.
00:17:19I heard about your little stunt wedding.
00:17:21That doesn't mean we can't celebrate.
00:17:24Right?
00:17:25I could think of a dozen things you could do to me.
00:17:31My God.
00:17:34This is a $10,000 Valentino.
00:17:37I'm sorry, but I didn't...
00:17:39I didn't even do anything.
00:17:41Where did you find this one, Jackie?
00:17:43Wagstaff Training School?
00:17:45Vivian.
00:17:46Oh, that was it.
00:17:49She was actually a waitress.
00:17:51Or, I don't remember.
00:17:53Whatever it was.
00:17:54Excuse me.
00:17:56So, when she got to the house,
00:18:00I went down for the ex.
00:18:03As I was saying.
00:18:08Hmm.
00:18:09Hmm.
00:18:10Hmm.
00:18:11Hmm.
00:18:12Hmm.
00:18:13You know, you should really come over here and taste this.
00:18:15Hmm.
00:18:16Hmm.
00:18:18Hmm.
00:18:21Hmm.
00:18:22Hmm.
00:18:25Hmm.
00:18:27Oh, hmm.
00:18:32Come over here and taste this.
00:18:58Wow.
00:18:59Good?
00:19:01Surprisingly good.
00:19:02Surprisingly good?
00:19:05Payment for spying.
00:19:08Payment accepted.
00:19:10You know, the house this grand, I would expect a kitchen to match.
00:19:19I had to make do.
00:19:21No, I never cook.
00:19:23It's a shame.
00:19:25You can go now.
00:19:34You, um, wanted to see me.
00:19:53Time for your first lesson.
00:19:56My what?
00:20:01Self-defense.
00:20:03Never know when you might need it.
00:20:05I don't know if that's...
00:20:06Number one.
00:20:07Stance.
00:20:10Move the feet apart.
00:20:12Bend this knee.
00:20:14Yeah.
00:20:15Then move this foot forward.
00:20:17Good.
00:20:18Okay?
00:20:19No.
00:20:20Hands up.
00:20:21Protect the face.
00:20:23Okay?
00:20:25No.
00:20:26Like this.
00:20:27Oh, God, I'm sorry.
00:20:32I'm not really good at this.
00:20:36We're just getting started.
00:20:38Oh.
00:20:41Maybe we should just focus on business.
00:20:44Rule number one.
00:20:47Stance.
00:20:49Right?
00:20:50Every chef needs proper tools.
00:20:53Who needs to show all the more you will?
00:20:54Try local- Islamic conditions and use them.
00:20:57What is this thing?
00:20:59That's true.
00:21:01What would be a vital tool afterます them?
00:21:03Every chef needs proper tools.
00:21:05Every chef needs proper tools
00:21:19I have a business expense
00:21:22Business expense
00:21:25These are the best knives in the market
00:21:30The best knives are the best chef
00:21:35Why are you doing this?
00:21:37The contract
00:21:38No
00:21:39The real reason
00:21:41Maybe I just like watching you work
00:21:44Maybe
00:21:48Maybe
00:21:48You just like watching me
00:21:52You know that
00:21:56This doesn't change anything
00:22:00Of course not
00:22:05This is for your mother
00:22:08This
00:22:14No this is too much
00:22:15You should cover the whole thing
00:22:16Please I can
00:22:19I think that's literally the nicest thing a man has ever done for me
00:22:26What's the catch?
00:22:28We've got a problem
00:22:41Morning to you too
00:22:43So the inheritance release date is set but
00:22:45If anyone finds out about the marriage then
00:22:48No one's gonna find out
00:22:49Oh really?
00:22:50Because your little chef seems to be quite the talk of the town
00:22:52It's under control
00:22:54Is it?
00:22:55It seems like you're letting your feelings control all your
00:23:00I said it's handled
00:23:01Just remember what's at stake here
00:23:13This Morrison deal
00:23:16Is a deal of a lifetime
00:23:18Don't tell me you're actually fooling me
00:23:23Get out
00:23:53You 좀 care about me
00:23:55You think thatruled me
00:23:56You're willing you're going to actually do it
00:23:58I'll let my daughter
00:23:58Go
00:24:00Go
00:24:00Go
00:24:02Go
00:24:03Go
00:24:20Go
00:24:53Oh, no.
00:24:59God.
00:25:13Jack, darling.
00:25:15Bounty seeing you here.
00:25:16Vivian?
00:25:17The 82 crystal.
00:25:19Remember the crystal, Jack?
00:25:21I can still feel it running down my back just thinking about it.
00:25:26We even used to drink some of it.
00:25:28Anyway, we have business to discuss.
00:25:30You'll never believe what Hannah said about the Asian market today.
00:25:33Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:25:38This must be so boring for you.
00:25:41You're so insightful, Vivian.
00:25:43You do bore me.
00:25:45Darling, the adults have business to discuss.
00:25:48Why don't you go back to, like, chopping or whatever it is that you do?
00:25:52So, basically, you know the company way that we have our investments holding in?
00:25:56I had a business meeting with Hannah today, and she has basically advised me to say that
00:26:00our investments are not making any profit, because me and self isn't actually doing all
00:26:04too well.
00:26:05So, my proposal for next year would be basically...
00:26:08Why the whirlwind romance you've got there?
00:26:27What's the catch?
00:26:28There's always a catch.
00:26:31Excuse me, I...
00:26:33Rebecca Chen.
00:26:34Social pages.
00:26:35Two days from first meeting to marriage.
00:26:39This must be some kind of record.
00:26:41Though lately I've been more interested in, uh, business deals.
00:26:46Hmm.
00:26:46What would you say?
00:26:49Love at first sight, or something more contractual?
00:26:53You know, you should really write romance novels.
00:26:56Seems you have quite the imagination.
00:26:58We'll talk again soon, Mrs. Thorne.
00:27:05I have a feeling there's quite a story here.
00:27:16The Morrison Foundation dinners tonight.
00:27:18Oh, great.
00:27:19Another dinner.
00:27:21It's important.
00:27:22They're all important.
00:27:23It's a part of the deal.
00:27:25They're all a part of the deal.
00:27:28You knew what you were signing up for.
00:27:30Did I?
00:27:34At least Vivian will be there.
00:27:35To talk.
00:27:37Deals and acquisitions and mergers.
00:27:41Okay, whatever.
00:27:42Nice.
00:27:55Real mature.
00:27:59No, don't.
00:28:00Fuck.
00:28:03Okay.
00:28:04Okay, fine.
00:28:05You wanna go?
00:28:06No?
00:28:08No.

00:28:11No!
00:28:15Okay, come in.

00:29:01So Jack's inheritance is all set, but he still hasn't signed the papers to commit the proceeds to the Morrison deal. That's the problem.
00:29:10Hmm. It's the girl, isn't it? The waitress.
00:29:14You and I both know she's been a problem from the start.
00:29:17And I thought you had everything under control.
00:29:19Oh, I've done my part. That's underway. And I thought you'd have your part under control.
00:29:26I have everything under control.
00:29:29Oh, really? Because it doesn't seem like it, Vivian. You know, maybe I overestimated your sway over, Jack.
00:29:35You haven't overestimated anything. I've just begun.
00:29:42I've got it.
00:29:44Funny how you can always count on the help to answer the door.
00:29:58I live here.
00:30:00Of course you do.
00:30:02Okay, thanks.
00:30:06Jack, darling, should we proceed to the study? We need to discuss the Morrison deal.
00:30:11Yeah.
00:30:12Yeah.
00:30:13Oh, we need to discuss the Morrison deal.
00:30:19Vivian?
00:30:20Vivian?
00:30:21Remember Tokyo?
00:30:22That sake bar?
00:30:23I'm married.
00:30:24Are you now?
00:30:25I hadn't noticed.
00:30:26Uh-oh.
00:30:27You know that feeling when you leave the house and you just feel like you've forgotten something?
00:30:44I forgot something.
00:30:57Maybe you can help me figure it out?
00:31:02Coffee?
00:31:03Oh, no thank you. Jack and I have much to catch up on. Oh, and Jack doesn't drink coffee. Do you, Jack?
00:31:17Actually, I've taken it up recently.
00:31:19I guess before me, Jack never really had coffee how he liked it. And he just absolutely laps up every drop of my coffee.
00:31:31Isn't that right?
00:31:33Lily makes a great cup of coffee.
00:31:36Hmm.
00:31:41So, how's Vivian?
00:31:45Focus on your form.
00:31:47You know, I was just wondering.
00:31:50How long the two of you-
00:31:51Ancient history.
00:31:52That's not what I heard.
00:31:55From who?
00:31:56Around.
00:31:57Tokyo gets brought up a lot.
00:32:00You've been talking to Warren.
00:32:02You've been talking to Vivian.
00:32:04That's business.
00:32:06Everything is business with you, isn't it?
00:32:09But you know what?
00:32:13What's this?
00:32:14Some pretty big business.
00:32:15That you haven't been sharing with me.
00:32:16I think Vivian wants some of it, too.
00:32:17But you know what?
00:32:18Maybe you should just keep your business to yourself.
00:32:20Sad.
00:32:21Watch your stance.
00:32:22I don't want to be lied to.
00:32:23I don't want to be lied to.
00:32:25I'm not lying, Lily.
00:32:27Don't break my heart.
00:32:28Yeah.
00:32:29Yeah.
00:32:30Yeah.
00:32:31Just keep your business to yourself.
00:32:35Sad. Watch your stance.
00:32:42I don't want to be lied to.
00:32:44I'm not lying, Lily.
00:32:48Don't break my heart.
00:32:52Yeah.
00:33:01I'm not lying.
00:33:22I'm not lying.
00:33:26Hey, this guy is so great today.
00:33:28Hi.
00:33:29Please act like you know me.
00:33:30There's someone following me oh my god. Are you okay? Who's following you that weirdo?
00:33:42Is he gone? I think he's gone
00:33:52You're sure
00:34:00Like that
00:34:04I think your technique could use some more. I got the dota rides
00:34:11Sure, that wasn't me
00:34:30What
00:34:38Of course and I think the real challenge is market penetration and emerging economies
00:34:43I'm sure jack's put you up to speed on all of this
00:34:47um actually I
00:34:49Tell me what's your take on blockchain integration um
00:34:53I think
00:34:55Oh, no comment how surprising excuse me. Oh great thinking lily all of our drinks could use with a refill
00:35:25Hmm love you
00:35:35But this thing isn't gonna last forever jack

00:40:33Hey you know that secret room
00:40:36That you didn't want me to find
00:40:37I found it

00:40:54Do you want to see it
00:40:55Shelly
00:40:56Shelly
00:40:58Shelly
00:41:00is
00:41:00Good
00:41:01Most people run.
00:41:26I'm not most people.
00:41:31So, this is what you're into?
00:41:37Among other things.
00:41:39And all of those specific requirements.
00:41:44We're about to scare you off.
00:41:47I don't scare you, son.
00:41:48I'm starting to get that.
00:41:55Show me.
00:41:57You sure?
00:42:00Are you?
00:42:01I don't care.
00:42:31I don't care.
00:42:39So?
00:42:42So?
00:42:49Sir, Miss Chase is here.
00:42:51She says it's urgent.
00:42:52Jack, the team is flying to Tokyo and they need you there.
00:42:55Final deal points.
00:42:57Jack's leaving in 30.
00:42:58I packed your bag and I'll be waiting downstairs.
00:43:02Will we wait?
00:43:06Just go.
00:43:07I'm sorry.
00:43:08So?
00:43:12Yeah, she's going.
00:43:18I'm sorry.
00:43:22Louie, I can explain.
00:43:42Can you?
00:43:46Guess some business can't wait.
00:43:52This whole thing is...
00:43:58Let me get this straight.
00:44:00You sleep with him, and then you find a note from his ex.
00:44:04That's complicated.
00:44:05When isn't it with you?
00:44:07Look, maybe it's time to admit this whole thing is just a little...
00:44:11What? A mistake?
00:44:12That you were right?
00:44:14Huh? Is that what you want to hear?
00:44:16No, I want you to be happy.
00:44:19And are you?
00:44:20I don't know what I am anymore.
00:44:24I mean, he paid for Mom's operation, so that's cool, but I...
00:44:27I know.
00:44:28And the worst part is I think I might actually be falling for...
00:44:31Lily?
00:44:38Stand back.
00:44:39What?
00:44:40Stand back, Megan.
00:44:44Kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty.
00:44:47Lily!
00:44:48Oh, your ears out!
00:44:52Get down, motherfucker!
00:44:53Fucker!
00:44:54What?
00:44:54Oh, my God!
00:44:56Fuck you!
00:44:58Come on, let's go.
00:45:05What was that?
00:45:07Lessons with Jack.
00:45:09Jack taught you that?
00:45:10Yeah.
00:45:12Yeah.
00:45:13Dude's getting better by a minute!
00:45:14I know.
00:45:15Oh, man.
00:45:19You okay?
00:45:20Yeah.
00:45:22God, things are supposed to be so simple.
00:45:26Now what?
00:45:27Oh.
00:45:28I don't even know it's real anymore.
00:45:31Oh, honey.
00:45:32I'm kidding.
00:45:32He always keeps the ledger on his desk.
00:46:01Lauren, I've known you since college.
00:46:17How could you?
00:46:18I'll have in minds.
00:46:25Almost a year.
00:46:28I barely knew that it's anymore.
00:46:29Lily, I need to tell you something.
00:46:43I'm all ears.
00:46:45It's about the deal.
00:46:47About Warren, Vivian.
00:46:48Well, if it isn't the happy couple.
00:46:52Oh, great.
00:46:53The press.
00:46:54These aren't real.
00:47:05We're real.
00:47:06Oh, my sisters say they're very real.
00:47:09Story runs in 48 hours.
00:47:11Louis, this is what I was just about to tell you.
00:47:13I've been set up.
00:47:17Care to comment, Mrs. Thorne?
00:47:18You know, it's funny.
00:47:21I, for a minute, I really believed.
00:47:26Louis, wait.
00:47:29They're not real.
00:47:32Take talk, Mr. Thorne.
00:47:44Louis, wait.
00:47:44They're not real.
00:47:48You have to believe me.
00:47:49Look, I believed you when you said that this was just a business deal.
00:47:53Like, I believed you when you said that Vivian was just a colleague.
00:47:59Look, I believed that last night actually meant something.
00:48:02It did.
00:48:03Lily, what happened between us was...
00:48:05The transaction.
00:48:07That's all any of this ever was.
00:48:10That's not true.
00:48:11And you know it.
00:48:12Do I?
00:48:13Because from where I'm standing,
00:48:17you got everything that you wanted.
00:48:19You got a wife when you needed one.
00:48:21And a body when you wanted one.
00:48:24No, wait.
00:48:24That's not it.
00:48:25Tell me I'm wrong.
00:48:26Tell me that there's not something more going on here.
00:48:29With the business deal.
00:48:30And your inheritance.
00:48:33Anything more to explain?
00:48:41It's my fault.
00:48:43You're a terrible person.
00:48:49If you leave now, you violate the contract.
00:48:52You get nothing.
00:48:54I don't care.
00:48:57I never cared about any of that.
00:48:59I don't care.
00:49:06Hands up.
00:49:19Protect the face.
00:49:20No, don't.
00:49:23Go?
00:49:25Nope.
00:49:34Warren?
00:49:35Finally, look.
00:49:36About the Morrison deal?
00:49:38It's off.
00:49:39What do you mean it's off?
00:49:40All of it.
00:49:42The deal, the inheritance.
00:49:44I don't want any of it.
00:49:45Have you lost your freaking mind?
00:49:47I mean, everything that we've worked for.
00:49:49Actually, I think I found it.
00:49:54I'm not going anywhere.
00:50:14You can't just hide here forever.
00:50:29Watch me.
00:50:29Hey, what happened to the girl who would never back down?
00:50:46The one who quit her job because she didn't want to compromise?
00:50:49She played.
00:50:50Did she?
00:50:56That's Jack.
00:50:57I'm sure that's just my octogenarian neighbor who's a total drama queen.
00:51:01Watch.
00:51:03Gladys?
00:51:06Gladys, is that you?
00:51:08Do you need help with your phone?
00:51:16Sir.
00:51:17Coffee.
00:51:19I did some digging around like you asked, sir.
00:51:23You might want to see this.
00:51:27What am I looking at here?
00:51:30Wire transfers, shell companies, all leading back to Mr. Block.
00:51:35More.
00:51:37I knew it.
00:51:38You might want to see these too, sir.
00:51:39They'll illuminate things even more.
00:51:41Son of a bitch.
00:51:47He's trying to steal the inheritance.
00:51:49He sure is.
00:51:50All through a series of cleverly placed shell companies.
00:51:55Although I suspect Ms. Chase's interests are not purely financial.
00:51:59They're threatening Lily and her sister.
00:52:14Then perhaps it's time we stop playing their game.
00:52:18Give me everything you can about Warren.
00:52:19Every meeting, every call.
00:52:20Already compiled, sir.
00:52:22I had a feeling we might need this.
00:52:23Sir, what about the inheritance?
00:52:25Some things are worth more than money.
00:52:27I'm coming back, Megan.
00:52:41Megan?
00:52:41I'm coming back, Megan.
00:52:44I can't believe it.
00:52:50I can't believe it.
00:52:54I can't believe it.
00:52:57I can't believe it.
00:52:57No.
00:52:57Wouldn't it bother you?
00:52:58No.
00:52:59I need no reason I can't believe it.
00:53:00Why am I here to live here?
00:53:02hold...
00:53:03I want you there.
00:53:04Why am I here...
00:53:06Oh bye.
00:53:08Bye, but what about me...
00:53:09I'll see you there?
00:53:10I'm sorry.
00:53:10Oh, my God.
00:53:27Think.
00:53:30I got its end of this.
00:53:32I can get us out of this.
00:53:34Oh, I can do this.
00:53:35Oh, I can do this.
00:53:36Your little cookie's on her way over to save her sister as we speak.
00:53:42And I wouldn't put money on how well that's going to go.
00:53:45If anything happens to her, that's up to you.
00:53:49Sign the papers.
00:53:52And this all goes away.
00:53:55Like those photos of you and me from that reporter suddenly went away.
00:54:01Deep fakes really do hurt everyone involved.
00:54:05Don't they?
00:54:06I always knew you were soft.
00:54:09But this?
00:54:10Throwing away a billion dollar inheritance for some chef.
00:54:13He's not throwing it away.
00:54:15He's giving it to us.
00:54:18All we need is a signature, Jack.
00:54:22You care too much, Jackie boy.
00:54:25Always have.
00:54:29I think we might need to send a little message.
00:54:32Hmm.
00:54:34Wait.
00:54:34Let me go, you psycho.
00:54:55Remember your training.
00:55:03Protect your face.
00:55:08Megan!
00:55:09Lenny!
00:55:13Welcome to the party, sweetheart.
00:55:16Please, come on.
00:55:18Come on.
00:55:19Of course it's a trap.
00:55:26The question is...
00:55:27What are you going to do about it?
00:55:31Lily!
00:55:32Oh!
00:55:32I've traced the video feed to the Starlight Motel, sir.
00:55:37Room 115.
00:55:39Lawrence, call the police.
00:55:40Already done.
00:55:41But, sir, they're at least 20 minutes out.
00:55:44She doesn't have 20 minutes.
00:55:45No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:55:54Lawrence, she's there.
00:55:55Lily's there.
00:56:00Hold on, Lily.
00:56:01Hold on.
00:56:02Hold on.
00:56:06Hold on.
00:56:07Leave her alone.
00:56:17Shut up!
00:56:19Get away from my wife.
00:56:21Well, well.
00:56:23A hero arrives.
00:56:26Don't do it, Jackie boy.
00:56:27Ah!
00:56:28I'm not some damsel in distress.
00:56:33That's my girl.
00:56:41Oh.
00:56:43I guess it is real love, huh?
00:56:54That's for my sister.
00:56:56You son of a bitch.
00:56:58No.
00:57:01No.
00:57:03Lily.
00:57:04Not everything.
00:57:06The photos.
00:57:08Vivian.
00:57:09Now?
00:57:10Seriously?
00:57:11I love you.
00:57:13Not for any inheritance.
00:57:15Not for any deal.
00:57:17Just...
00:57:19You.
00:57:21I know.
00:57:28Stay right there.
00:57:33Come on.
00:57:33Cover me.
00:57:45What the hell?
00:57:49This isn't...
00:57:50possible.
00:57:50I wouldn't put money on how well that's going to go.
00:57:56Sign the papers.
00:57:57Deepfakes really do hurt everyone involved.
00:58:00That proves nothing.
00:58:01I think it might prove something.
00:58:02Yeah, and those photos that you planted.
00:58:05Maybe use better AI next time.
00:58:07You can't?
00:58:08Yes, they can.
00:58:09And...
00:58:10You two are under arrest.
00:58:13No.
00:58:14You'll regret this, Jack.
00:58:15The inheritance that...
00:58:16Are nothing.
00:58:17Compared to what I almost lost.
00:58:19You pit upon it all, Jack.
00:58:20I do.
00:58:30Yes, thank you.
00:58:32Thanks.
00:58:36Now that's a story.
00:58:42Here to twist the knife?

00:58:55So...
00:58:56No scandal piece?
00:58:58Oh.
00:58:59There's definitely a scandal.
00:59:01But...
00:59:02Not the one they wanted me to bite on.
00:59:07That's...
00:59:07Actually accurate.
00:59:09I'm a reporter.
00:59:11Truth is kind of my thing.
00:59:13Though I must admit,
00:59:14I didn't see the secret martial arts skills coming.
00:59:17Yeah, neither did they.
00:59:18Story runs tomorrow.
00:59:22Catch you on the next scandal.
00:59:31We'll be about the inheritance.
00:59:33Do you really think that I care about any of that now?
00:59:40Just take me home.
00:59:43Yes, dear.
00:59:43Sun's coming up.
00:59:53It must be a new record.
00:59:56It is for me.
00:59:59Any regrets?
01:00:01Only one.
01:00:04That I didn't get your chef's special sooner.
01:00:07Could have saved a slouch.
01:00:07Oh, yeah.
01:00:09Wow.
01:00:13Excuse me, sir.
01:00:14Miss Chen's article is out.

01:00:43into the city's largest culinary grant program.
01:00:48Surprised?

01:00:54Well, the inheritance, yeah.

01:02:02Hang on.
01:02:10Voila.
01:02:15You have the best chef in town.
01:02:17You're only saying that

01:03:16Is that...
01:03:17Something old.
01:03:18Something new.
01:03:20Something borrowed.

01:04:13I don't know.
01:04:15Mr. Thorne.
01:04:19Can you handle them?
01:04:21I thought this wasn't about business anymore.
01:04:24How about you just shut up.
