00:00:00Hey, this is Richard Ellington, I can't answer the phone right now, so please leave a message.
00:00:15Hey, Grandpa.
00:00:17It's one thing to set me up on a bunch of blind dates with these goody-two-shoe women,
00:00:24but to trick me into thinking I'm coming to a business meeting that's actually a blind
00:00:27date, that's low.
00:00:31Let's hope this one's different.
00:00:35I don't even know what to say to this guy.
00:00:38I don't know how to talk to rich people.
00:00:41Be sexy.
00:00:42Darling, just act better than everyone else in the room.
00:00:46And being sexy is easy.
00:00:48Bite your lip, push up the girls.
00:00:51It works every time.
00:00:52Wait, what girls?
00:00:54And don't forget, these rich men get bored easily.
00:00:58So challenge them, be bold, and put them on the spot.
00:01:02I don't think I can do this.
00:01:04The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner I pay you for your
00:01:08mother's surgery.
00:01:09It's your call.
00:01:24Are you going to stare at me all night or be a gentleman and get my seat, big boy?
00:01:44Of course.
00:01:46Sorry, I've been set up with many girls before, but none like you.
00:01:52You're so...
00:01:53Rich?
00:01:54Sexy?
00:01:55Frankly, yes.
00:01:56Sorry, what was your name?
00:02:01Valentina Kingsley.
00:02:02And you are?

00:06:32And you are?
00:06:33And you are?
00:06:35That's... that's new.
00:06:41The painting!
00:06:42Maybe there's a safe behind there.
00:06:44Oh, uh, sorry, this painting caught my eye.
00:06:48It looks exactly like the one in my mansion in Sweden.
00:06:53It's where I keep my safe.
00:06:56People actually still hide things behind paintings?
00:07:00But that was only in the movies.
00:07:02Uh, no, it's quite popular.
00:07:05Where do you hide your luxurious safe keepings?
00:07:10In a super, super, super secret hiding place.
00:07:14Ugh, come on.
00:07:17Now why don't you come over here and get this thing started?
00:07:21Oh, uh, most unfortunate, I'm getting the utmost important business call and I must take it.
00:07:28Right now?
00:07:29What?
00:07:30What about me?
00:07:31What about me?
00:07:33Valentina!
00:07:37Wait!
00:07:38Untie me!
00:07:44Ew.
00:07:45Really, Blaine?
00:07:47What?
00:07:48You and your models.
00:07:51Last night was not a model.
00:07:53I was actually impressed.
00:07:56Did I hear right?
00:07:58Blaine actually had a date he liked?
00:08:01It was fantastic.
00:08:03The other girls, they're so boring.
00:08:05But this one, she's a mystery I can't quite crack.
00:08:09I must see her again.
00:08:11Blaine, these dates aren't about you having sexy adventures.
00:08:15It's about you finding a wife you can settle down with and running the company.
00:08:22Grandfather.
00:08:23Hmm?
00:08:24Listen to him.
00:08:25He's not ready to be the face of Ellington.
00:08:27I am much more qualified.
00:08:28Oh, yeah.
00:08:30I'm done having this conversation with you, dear.
00:08:33No, no, no, no.
00:08:35Look, you do great work right where you are.
00:08:38Right?
00:08:39You weren't meant to be some CEO.
00:08:42No, but Blaine, Blaine will learn in time.
00:08:46Whatever.
00:08:48Have fun with your little girlfriend, Blaine.
00:08:51I have actual work to attend to.
00:08:56Yeah, yeah, thanks.
00:08:59Bye.
00:09:05Hello?
00:09:06How's our plan going, darling?
00:09:10To perfection.
00:09:13Charity has Blaine wrapped around her finger.
00:09:15It won't be long until he flips up and I can step in and take my throne as Ellington's CEO.
00:09:22Brilliant.
00:09:23It's all coming together perfectly.
00:09:25And the VR tech you're developing.
00:09:27It'll be ready in time when I trade the AI code, right?
00:09:30Oh, yes. It'll be ready.
00:09:32Soon we'll be queens of the tech world.
00:09:47What's he doing here?
00:09:49Speaking of girls, I think I know who would be perfect as your new assistant.
00:09:54Sorry.
00:09:55I'm fine.
00:09:57Ariel.
00:09:59How does he know my name?
00:10:00You dropped your badge.
00:10:09There you go.
00:10:10Thanks.
00:10:18She's amazing.
00:10:22Are you playing hide and seek?
00:10:23Is that where you were laying?
00:10:24Can I hide next?
00:10:25No, I was dropping your mom off at the hospital.
00:10:27Oh, that was unexpectedly personal.
00:10:29Wait, oh my god, is she okay?
00:10:31Should I bring her a fruit basket?
00:10:33She's just getting some tests done.
00:10:35Oh, thank goodness.
00:10:37Hey, by the way, did you hear?
00:10:39Our new CEO is looking for a personal assistant.
00:10:41Are you going to apply?
00:10:42I'm good where I am.
00:10:43Not all the girls are applying.
00:10:45Everyone wants to get close to our boss.
00:10:47You're the best employee in our department, Ariel.
00:10:49I think this position is yours.
00:11:01He's gorgeous.
00:11:03I wouldn't mind looking at that hunk of man all day.
00:11:07Attention, everyone.
00:11:09My name is Blaine, and I am the new CEO.
00:11:13I will try my best to live up to my father,
00:11:16but I ask for patience as I adjust to the new role.
00:11:20And since he is adjusting to this new role,
00:11:23I have decided to assign him a new assistant.
00:11:26Not me, not me, not me.
00:11:28Blaine, meet your new assistant, Ariel.
00:11:36All right, everyone, back to work.
00:11:44You look exactly like...
00:11:48Oh my god, my cover's blown.
00:11:54Kurt described.
00:11:56Clean, organized desk.
00:11:58Confident composure.
00:12:01There'd be a pay raise, of course.
00:12:04This could get me closer to finding the code.
00:12:07When do I start?
00:12:08Perfect.
00:12:10First thing I need help with is this file.
00:12:12Oh, um, gotta take a phone call.
00:12:15Send it to me in an email.
00:12:20Ariel, he wants to meet you again.
00:12:23Really?
00:12:24Also, I got you a second number.
00:12:26Just click the link to connect it,
00:12:28so from now on, you're the one he'll be calling.
00:12:31Great.
00:12:38New number, huh?
00:12:43Hello?
00:12:44Hello, Ariel? This is Dr. Westphal.
00:12:46We just got your mother's results.
00:12:49It's not what we hoped.
00:12:51So we need to move quickly if we want that experimental procedure to be a success.
00:12:56Okay, I understand.
00:12:58I'll come up with the money for it soon.
00:13:12Oh, perfect timing.
00:13:14I just finished dinner.
00:13:15Mom, you should be in bed.
00:13:17Honey, I'm fine.
00:13:19Besides, you've been working all day.
00:13:20You shouldn't have to cook for yourself.
00:13:22Mom, please.
00:13:23Honey, sit down.
00:13:35The doctor called?
00:13:37He says it's gotten worse.
00:13:38Hush, hush, hush.
00:13:40None of that talk, okay?
00:13:42Hush, none of that talk, okay?
00:13:45Mom.
00:13:46Eat before your food gets cold.
00:13:56I'll be right back.
00:14:04It's time for the second date, darling.
00:14:06Are you ready?
00:14:09Yeah.
00:14:12Mom, I have to leave for work.
00:14:14I'll make it to go.
00:14:32Oh, where am I?
00:14:37Valentina!
00:14:39Blaine!
00:14:41Darling, what is this dreadful place?
00:14:44Do you intend to have me killed?
00:14:46No, not at all.
00:14:47This place is special.
00:14:49Follow me.
00:15:02Hurry, Maura.
00:15:03We're almost there.
00:15:04Come on.
00:15:10Come on.
00:15:21Wow.
00:15:31Would you look at that view?
00:15:35I bet you bring all your models up here.
00:15:37Just you, actually.
00:15:38I discovered this place after my father died.
00:15:43Your family joined?
00:15:44Yeah.
00:15:46And I've been thrown into the CEO position,
00:15:48and I'm a bit in over my head,
00:15:52so I never really get a chance to myself,
00:15:54except when I come here.
00:15:59I'm so sorry.
00:16:06My mom is sick.
00:16:09She needs experimental surgery.
00:16:17So I know how it feels to want to get away.
00:16:21Yeah.
00:16:24I'm used to getting everything,
00:16:26but this is one thing that money can't buy.
00:16:31I'm so sorry about your mom.
00:16:33Thanks.
00:16:36She's all I've got.
00:16:39I don't want to say goodbye to her.
00:16:50Hey, who's out here?
00:16:55What's happening?
00:16:57Technically, we're not supposed to be up here.
00:16:59What?
00:17:00Run.
00:17:09Hey!
00:17:12Still.
00:17:18What was that?
00:17:19That was fun.
00:17:20Did Calvin Klein take you on any dates that adventurous?
00:17:23No, I suppose not.
00:17:28I haven't felt this way in a really long time.
00:17:32I feel like I can be myself around you.
00:17:36You feel the same way?
00:17:38Will you be my girlfriend, Valentina?
00:17:40That's right.
00:17:41I'm supposed to be Valentina.
00:17:43I can't do this to him.
00:17:48But I need to pay for my mom's surgery.
00:17:52I'd love to.
00:17:57Well, well, well.
00:18:00Martina, what are you doing here?
00:18:03I heard you were actually acting like a big boy CEO.
00:18:07Had to see it for myself.
00:18:09Well, that blind date went so well the other night it got me thinking maybe grandfather was right.
00:18:15Is that so?
00:18:17Blaine's got himself a little girlfriend?
00:18:19That's right.
00:18:20Wow.
00:18:21What's she like?
00:18:23She's funny, mysterious, confident, hardworking, charitable.
00:18:29She's the whole package.
00:18:31Sounds like one that dad actually would have approved of.
00:18:34I'd love to meet her.
00:18:37Oh, sorry, Mr. Ellington. Is this a bad time?
00:18:40No, not at all. My sister just came to visit.
00:18:43Martina, this is my new assistant, Ariel.
00:18:46Martina, nice to meet you.
00:18:48Likewise. Glad to see my brother has someone to make sure this launch goes smoothly.
00:18:53Don't you worry. I got this.
00:18:55Well, after you lost the keys to the Maserati, I'm not so sure that you won't lose this new AI tech that we need.
00:19:01I didn't lose the keys to the Maserati.
00:19:02And don't you worry. I've got the codes right here on this drive.
00:19:07And I'm keeping it safe.
00:19:21Glad to hear you're doing that. I have wasted enough time.
00:19:27Now you know exactly where it is.
00:19:30Get it.
00:19:33Wow.
00:19:40Alright, where's that drive?
00:19:47Are you kidding? There's nothing in here.
00:20:02They're coming in.
00:20:04Crap.
00:20:06How about we celebrate your China contract with a nice glass of whiskey?
00:20:09You don't have to twist my arm.
00:20:11You don't have to twist my arm.
00:20:13No, no, no.
00:20:20Oh, yeah.
00:20:25Sarah?
00:20:27Cheers.
00:20:28Don't you guys have that meeting with China right now?
00:20:32Right, right, right. After then.
00:20:34Yeah.
00:20:43Phew. That was close.
00:20:50Hey, hey, girlfriend. Can I ask you for advice on something?
00:20:54Sure. What's going on?
00:20:56So, I have this friend who is having boy problems.
00:20:59Aren't we all?
00:21:00So, she has a crush on her boss.
00:21:02And she doesn't know what to do about it because of the whole workplace relationship thing.
00:21:06How did she find out I like Blaine?
00:21:08Wait, I don't like Blaine.
00:21:10But he deserves to know though, right?
00:21:12You're gonna tell him?
00:21:14I mean, I don't know. Because what if I tell Kurt I like him and he doesn't like me?
00:21:17And then it's so totally awkward and so he fires me because it's so totally awkward.
00:21:21Wait, you like Kurt?
00:21:23I gotta go. What? Ring, ring. Oh, I'm getting a call.
00:21:29Ring, ring. Ring, ring. Ring, ring.
00:21:35Ariel.
00:21:37Yes, Mr. Ellington?
00:21:39I need your personal help.
00:21:41Well, I am your personal assistant.
00:21:52I've never gotten a girl a gift.
00:21:55Wow, really?
00:21:56Um, I mean, yeah. First girlfriend, first gift. Checks out.
00:22:02So, I need your help to figure out which you think a woman would prefer.
00:22:18Oh my God, I'm gonna be wearing that?
00:22:21Sorry?
00:22:23Your girlfriend's gonna be wearing that?
00:22:26Yeah. It's pretty nice, right? Well, I mean, it's option one.
00:22:31You think she'll like it?
00:22:33Um, well, what's your girlfriend like? What are her tastes?
00:22:40Um, sophisticated, generous, gorgeous. The whole world slows down whenever she walks into a room.
00:22:51I see.
00:22:53So, keep that in mind. Option two...
00:23:01And that's even more revealing than the first one.
00:23:04Yeah. This is big in Europe. Between you and me, I'm rooting for this guy.
00:23:09I see. Do you have anything more... modest?
00:23:15Hm. Modest?
00:23:16Yeah. That seems to be the style I've been seeing these days. With the rich folk, at least.
00:23:24You know, now that you say it, I think I do have something.
00:23:33Aha!
00:23:36What do you think?
00:23:38I think she'd really like that.
00:23:47Can I have a margarita?
00:23:50You can't be serious, darling.
00:23:53She'll have a French 75 with cognac.
00:23:56Flora, what are you doing here?
00:23:58Making sure you look the part. You want to make the money for your dear mother, don't you?
00:24:03Yes. More than anything.
00:24:05Then you need to keep your eyes on the prize. We need to get our hands on that code fast.
00:24:11Once I do, I can fund your mother's surgery. But until then, we're in this together. Yes?
00:24:18Yeah.
00:24:20Excellent. Now, what's your game plan?
00:24:24Make him even more vulnerable, and get him to tell me where the code is.
00:24:28And how do you suppose you'll do that?
00:24:31Um... be nice?
00:24:34Be nice?
00:24:38Your ignorance is both cute and annoying.
00:24:42No. A man like Blaine Ellington is going to become vulnerable from two things.
00:24:49Drinking with him, and going to bed with him.
00:24:53Right.
00:24:56I can do that.
00:24:58I hope so. Because he's coming this way.
00:25:00Get the code soon, honey. For your mother.
00:25:05Okay.
00:25:08Oh!
00:25:10And darling, have fun.
00:25:16Valentina.
00:25:19How are you?
00:25:21Wonderful, love. I've been looking forward to this all day.
00:25:25Is that so?
00:25:27Indeed.
00:25:28Indeed.
00:25:30I was so distracted. It affected my croquet score.
00:25:35Oh no. Distracted over little old me?
00:25:37Yes. I simply must know everything about you.
00:25:41Well, what would you like to know?
00:25:44Everything.
00:25:46Well, I don't know about everything. It might take some time for me to open up.
00:25:51Well, maybe after a few drinks?
00:25:53Only if you can keep up.
00:25:55See, I don't really start talking until after a lot of drinking.
00:25:59Oh no. Well, here goes nothing.
00:26:23You know, my sister was implying today that I should tell someone where my new AI code is because I forget stuff.
00:26:32And...
00:26:34Are you forgetful?
00:26:36I mean, yeah.
00:26:39Can you actually believe I lost the keys to a Maserati?
00:26:42What? Really?
00:26:44Yeah. It cost me ten thousand dollars just to get them rekeyed.
00:26:49Which is why I should probably tell someone in case I do forget.
00:26:56So, maybe I should tell you because you're so awesome and trustworthy?
00:27:01Well, if you'd like, go ahead.
00:27:04I'll tell you. But first...
00:27:11I'm gonna hit the men's room.
00:27:12Of course.
00:27:17This is it. All I need to do is ask him where the code is and my mission is over.
00:27:22Nothing can stop me now.
00:27:24Ariel?
00:27:26Except my ex-boyfriend.
00:27:31I don't know what you're talking about, darling. I don't know this... Ariel.
00:27:36No, no, no, no, no. You are definitely Ariel.
00:27:41But what are you doing in a place like this? You're poor.
00:27:46Fine. Please, just leave, Max.
00:27:49It's Maximilian now. Because I'm Max and I make millions.
00:27:54Whatever. Please. I'm begging you.
00:27:57Look at you. You look so much better. You look... what's that word? Rich?
00:28:05Please.
00:28:06I don't know if you've been keeping up with my life lately, but I've become very rich.
00:28:11Yes. You've sent me 50 messages about it. I had to block your number.
00:28:15Oh. Yeah, that's right.
00:28:17Please, I'll do whatever you want, okay? I just...
00:28:20How about a kiss for old time's sake?
00:28:24You know, Ariel, sometimes I reminisce on our poor days together.
00:28:29This isn't happening.
00:28:30Do you not remember when we'd go and get taco Tuesday at that Mexican restaurant and eat unlimited discount tacos?
00:28:39How embarrassing.
00:28:41Don't you have a girlfriend?
00:28:43Yes, he does.
00:28:45A situation shipped the best.
00:28:47Let go, Max.
00:28:49Nobody walks away from Maximilian Fletcher. Get off her.
00:28:55Blaine Ellington?
00:28:57Max Fletcher.
00:28:58Maximilian?
00:29:00What are you doing with that peasant?
00:29:02That's my girlfriend you're talking about.
00:29:04Blaine Ellington.
00:29:06Getting my sloppy seconds.
00:29:21This isn't over.
00:29:26Come on, Regina.
00:29:29Just stay away from my man, skank.
00:29:33He's actually trying to.
00:29:37Are you okay?
00:29:39Yeah, I think so.
00:29:41We gotta get out of here.
00:29:43This isn't good.
00:29:52Care to explain this?
00:29:54I assume the article does a good job.
00:29:56Getting into a physical altercation in a bar?
00:30:02What are you, a child?
00:30:04I'm not a child.
00:30:06But he started it.
00:30:08I don't care who started it.
00:30:10Ellington is a company based in family values.
00:30:14I was out with my girlfriend trying to uphold those family values.
00:30:19No, no, no. Don't play the girlfriend card.
00:30:22The onus is you on this, pal.
00:30:24Maybe your sister was right.
00:30:27Maybe you're too much of a risk, even though you say you've settled down.
00:30:31Either way, I just hope all this boils over next time we talk.
00:30:37What would your father think?
00:30:54Hmm.
00:30:57Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.
00:31:01What is that? Some family motto I'm not aware of?
00:31:04It's Shakespeare, you idiot.
00:31:06What are you doing here? You don't want any of this.
00:31:10You don't know what I want.
00:31:12Uh, booze and bimbos?
00:31:15Or does page one of the paper say something different?
00:31:18She's not a bimbo.
00:31:21Then don't treat her like one.
00:31:24Treat her like dad treated mom.
00:31:30How do you mean?
00:31:32Bring her completely into your life.
00:31:35Let her know everything about you.
00:31:38I'm trying to. Just last night, we were sharing everything with each other.
00:31:42Okay, share more.
00:31:44Behind most men's success is a strong woman.
00:31:47I will.
00:31:49I'm gonna get close to this woman.
00:31:51You'll see.
00:31:53And you will be like two lovely berries molded onto one stem.
00:31:58Shakespeare.
00:32:00Yeah?
00:32:02Ow.
00:32:12Martina, how are you?
00:32:15How am I?
00:32:17Yeah, how are you?
00:32:19I am annoyed. Time is running out, understand?
00:32:21Mm-hmm.
00:32:23We chose you because we thought you could get the job done.
00:32:25But now I'm not so sure.
00:32:28Wait.
00:32:30Oh my god, do you have feelings for him?
00:32:33What? No.
00:32:35I hope not. Because you have four days to get that code.
00:32:38Or you can say bye to mommy.
00:32:41Other than that...
00:32:43I am fine. Thanks for asking.
00:32:52Happy hump day, bestie!
00:32:55It's Tuesday, Hannah.
00:32:57Oh, right.
00:32:59Hey, how's your guy trouble coming?
00:33:01Better.
00:33:03And worse.
00:33:05That sounds super complicated.
00:33:07You have no idea.
00:33:09Hey, are you...
00:33:11Can you come in here?
00:33:13I'll be right there.
00:33:15Good thing you've got work to distract you.
00:33:17Good thing.
00:33:18Good thing.
00:33:25You have the file for the new China branch?
00:33:28Yeah.
00:33:36Long night?
00:33:40You know what?
00:33:42Let's forget about the file.
00:33:48Okay.
00:33:54Let's just close our eyes for...
00:33:57ten minutes.
00:34:06That's an order.
00:34:08Okay.
00:34:16This is nice.
00:34:18Yeah.
00:34:20This should be like...
00:34:22an everyday thing.
00:34:28Good morning! Another beautiful day in Ellington.
00:34:31Let's get it!
00:34:33Oh, Hannah!
00:34:38Well...
00:34:40I guess that's over.
00:34:44Well, everything should be there.
00:34:48I can't even concentrate on work right now.
00:34:51Oh? Why?
00:34:53Well, I don't know if you heard, but...
00:34:58Oh, my.
00:35:00That's quite a scene.
00:35:02Well, I'm glad you weren't there.
00:35:04I can imagine.
00:35:06Yeah, I just...
00:35:08I hope my girlfriend doesn't think that that's my kind of lifestyle.
00:35:13You should just talk to her.
00:35:15And be honest.
00:35:16Yeah.
00:35:18I'm gonna call her.
00:35:20What?
00:35:22Yeah, can you be in the room when I do it?
00:35:25Uh, you want me in the room?
00:35:28Yeah, maybe you could, you know, listen to her voice and read her.
00:35:32Tell me if she sounds upset.
00:35:35Uh...
00:35:37I don't know if I feel comfortable.
00:35:39She makes me so nervous.
00:35:41I'm sure you make her nervous, too.
00:35:44Shit, shit, shit!
00:35:47Oh!
00:35:49Think, Ariel, think!
00:35:51Uh, I'm gonna be sick.
00:35:53Bathroom!
00:36:00Hello, darling.
00:36:02Hey, Valentina.
00:36:04How are you?
00:36:06Thriving, my dear.
00:36:08How are you feeling?
00:36:10A little banged up, but I've been worse.
00:36:12You should have been with me in my partying days in Ibiza.
00:36:15I was an absolute heathen.
00:36:22Well, I'm glad to hear you're feeling alright.
00:36:25Uh, I was worried.
00:36:30No need, darling.
00:36:32I'm actually at the spa right now.
00:36:35I wanted to know if I'd get to see you again.
00:36:39You will.
00:36:40Very soon.
00:36:48Sorry.
00:36:50Can I help you?
00:36:52I couldn't hear you.
00:36:54It kind of sounded like...
00:36:56Sorry, Eduardo is calling me for my hot stone massage.
00:37:00Must be going.
00:37:02Okay, sure.
00:37:04See you.
00:37:06Ta-ta!
00:37:11Community theater.
00:37:14Character. I'm rehearsing.
00:37:18Murder mystery.
00:37:21I'll, uh, send you the dates.
00:37:24I'm not in the theater.
00:37:27That's fair.
00:37:41Mom, I'm home!
00:37:43Hi, honey. How was your day?
00:37:47It was... not boring.
00:37:51How was yours?
00:37:53It was wonderful.
00:37:55I did laundry, watched some soaps.
00:37:59Mom, what are you cooking?
00:38:01I told you I was going to cook tonight.
00:38:03Well, you weren't home yet, and I wanted to go ahead and get started
00:38:06so your co-worker could have some, too.
00:38:07My co-worker?
00:38:09Hello, darling.
00:38:17Flora!
00:38:19What are you doing here?
00:38:21I was going to call you about a few work questions,
00:38:24but I was, uh, in the neighborhood
00:38:28and thought I'd drop in.
00:38:30Flora mentioned that you got a job promotion.
00:38:33You didn't say anything.
00:38:34Flora mentioned that you got a job promotion.
00:38:37You didn't say anything about a job promotion.
00:38:39I guess it slipped my mind.
00:38:43Well, you two don't mind me.
00:38:45Go ahead and have your work talk, then I'll be ready soon.
00:38:58What are you doing here?
00:39:00Checking in to see what progress was made last night.
00:39:02I, um...
00:39:04I got close to finding out where he hid the drive, but I...
00:39:07But close doesn't pay the bills, does it?
00:39:10I'll get you the drive soon, I promise.
00:39:13Well, it sounds like the clock is ticking fast.
00:39:17You're not getting attached.
00:39:19What? No. Of course not.
00:39:22Good. I was worried you were developing feelings for the man.
00:39:28Dinner's ready.
00:39:29Deeply sorry, darling. Urgent business. Must be taking off.
00:39:33Oh, um, okay. Well, it was nice meeting you.
00:39:37You too, darling.
00:39:43Tick-tock.
00:39:44Tick-tock.
00:39:57Alright, I need ways to fix my image after that bar scandal. Any ideas?
00:40:04Inner rehab.
00:40:06Too tacky.
00:40:08Go volunteer in a third world country?
00:40:10Mmm, too obvious.
00:40:12Record an apology video for social media and post it there.
00:40:16Too cringe.
00:40:21Adopt an orphan.
00:40:23Now that is something.
00:40:25Ariel, how good are you at raising kids?
00:40:27Um, let's think of other options.
00:40:31What about a charity ball?
00:40:33Yes! That's it! That's the one!
00:40:36I like that. I like it a lot.
00:40:38Isn't she good?
00:40:40Phenomenal.
00:40:42Well, really, we wouldn't be here had I not appointed her as your assistant.
00:40:46So, really, this kind of all comes back to...
00:40:48Got it. Wait, what charity would it be for?
00:40:51How about unknown disorders and illnesses?
00:40:55I'd love that. Let's get it rolling.
00:40:58I'll start right away.
00:41:00Ariel, you've become an integral part of our company, and I want to have you seated at our VIP table.
00:41:07Oh my gosh, thank you. I'm honored.
00:41:08Me, my family, Kurt, my girlfriend Valentina, and you.
00:41:14Good job, Ariel.
00:41:20Let's see how it looks. Come out.
00:41:26It fits perfectly, darling.
00:41:30Wow. Stunning.
00:41:31Stunning.
00:41:36Next, I'll have to get you a dress.
00:41:38A dress? What's the occasion?
00:41:42Well, I'm hosting this charity ball, and I would love for you to be my date.
00:41:49I love a good ball.
00:41:51But I must check my schedule, darling.
00:41:54Is this for that computer thingy you were talking about the other day?
00:41:58My new AI tech. It's going to revolutionize the world.
00:42:03Ah, yes.
00:42:05We got interrupted. You were going to tell me something important.
00:42:10What were you going to say?
00:42:12It's not really that necessary.
00:42:16You don't trust me?
00:42:18I do. This is my first major launch as Ellington CEO, and I just want it to go well.
00:42:25But I thought I was special.
00:42:28You are. I just...
00:42:31Well, you know, if you don't trust me...
00:42:34Wait.
00:42:39So you do trust me?
00:42:41Mm-hmm.
00:42:42Mm-hmm.
00:42:51So Blaine's going to tell me the super special secret?
00:42:57Mm-hmm.
00:43:00Where is it?
00:43:02It's here. In the mansion.
00:43:07It's here?
00:43:13Mm-hmm.
00:43:22Where in the mansion?
00:43:24It's...
00:43:30Yeah.
00:43:33Now?
00:43:37Okay. I'll be there.
00:43:42Oh.
00:43:46Where are you going, darling?
00:43:48They need me to be on this call with China, so I have to leave.
00:43:53You have to leave right now, darling?
00:43:56Yeah. Now. I'm sorry. Pick this back up again soon, huh?
00:44:03Yeah.
00:44:06Martina was right about you. I should start sharing more with you.
00:44:10Mm-hmm.
00:44:41Did you get it?
00:44:43The code is in Blaine's mansion.
00:44:46Excellent, darling. Excellent.
00:45:11Max? What are you doing here?
00:45:14What the hell are you doing here, Ariel? Or should I say, Valentina Kingsley?
00:45:20You wouldn't understand.
00:45:22Oh, I understand. You're acting like somebody else to take advantage of your rich boss, hmm?
00:45:28No, I'm not. I...
00:45:30You know, I have the responsibility to tell your little hotshot boyfriend who you really are.
00:45:36It's only the right thing to do.
00:45:38Please don't. You don't know what I'm doing.
00:45:41Oh, you'll lose your job? Your reputation?
00:45:45Oh, once word gets out, nobody will want you?
00:45:49What do you want, Max?
00:45:51I just want a little, an arrangement.
00:45:55I'd rather not.
00:45:57Ariel, you really do not want to make me angry.
00:46:01Did you just come here to hurt me?
00:46:04Oh, sweetheart, I don't want to hurt you.
00:46:06I don't want to hurt you.
00:46:08I want to destroy you.
00:46:11You have 24 hours to end this charade on your own.
00:46:17If by tomorrow, I see little Valentina Kingsley running around town...
00:46:23I'll do it for you.
00:46:37You seem extra happy today.
00:46:41I feel like Valentina and I, we got on a whole other level last night.
00:46:46Wow, that's awesome, man. I'm so happy for you.
00:46:50Hi, Mr. Linkton. Hi, Kurt.
00:46:52Hi, Anna.
00:46:54Yeah, I feel like she's the one, Kurt.
00:46:57Kurt?
00:46:59Sorry, what were we talking about?
00:47:04Hi, Ariel.
00:47:06You alright?
00:47:09Yeah, I'm alright.
00:47:11I actually had an idea about the charity ball.
00:47:15Well, we keep reaching out to all of these extravagant venues for their availability.
00:47:21I was thinking we could host it ourselves.
00:47:24Where?
00:47:26I was thinking your house.
00:47:29Uh, I don't really like having people over at my house.
00:47:35Well, if we host it ourselves, it seems like a more intimate event.
00:47:41And then we could have it as soon as this weekend.
00:47:44Yeah, that makes sense.
00:47:47Okay, let's do it.
00:47:49Great. I'll send out the invitations.
00:47:54She really knows this company inside and out.
00:47:56What do you know about Ariel?
00:48:00What do you want to know?
00:48:14Here you go, Mom.
00:48:16I'm sorry I couldn't stay awake for the movie.
00:48:19I'm just so sleepy.
00:48:21That's okay. We can watch it next weekend.
00:48:23Sweetie, you should be going out with your friends on a Saturday night.
00:48:27Mom, you are my friend.
00:48:30People your age, who you can be out dancing with, flirting with boys.
00:48:37I actually kind of have met this one boy.
00:48:40What? What's he like?
00:48:43It's complicated.
00:48:45Honey, you just need to follow your heart.
00:48:48Yeah, he's kind of sweet.
00:48:50Sweetie, I'm fine. I just need some rest.
00:49:21And then after your speech, we're going to dance the night away.
00:49:26I'm dreading giving this speech.
00:49:29I guess I'll just picture everyone wearing their underwear and I'll be fine, right?
00:49:33I always thought that was a little pervy, but...
00:49:37I promise, you're going to be amazing.
00:49:41Thank you so much for helping with this.
00:49:45This charity ball idea was genius.
00:49:47I need to make it up to you at some point.
00:49:50I was just doing my job, Mr. Ellington.
00:49:55Well, I should get going.
00:49:57Wait. I should probably call Valentina, right?
00:50:02Make sure the dress fits.
00:50:05I'm sure she'd appreciate that.
00:50:07Alright. Goodnight.
00:50:18Hello, darling.
00:50:20I just wanted to make sure the dress fit.
00:50:23It's perfect.
00:50:25I'm looking forward to tomorrow.
00:50:28I can't wait either, darling.
00:50:30Goodnight.
00:50:47Ariel, this place looks amazing.
00:50:50Thanks, Kurt. You're looking sharp.
00:50:53Oh, yeah. Well, I got a dress to impress, you know?
00:50:57Are you trying to impress anyone?
00:51:00Nah.
00:51:02Listen, Random, does Hannah have a boyfriend?
00:51:07I don't think so.
00:51:09I don't think so either.
00:51:11I don't think so either.
00:51:13I don't think so either.
00:51:14Does Hannah have a boyfriend?
00:51:17I don't think so.
00:51:19Do you like her?
00:51:21No. No. No. No.
00:51:24No, I'm just trying to make a friendly conversation.
00:51:28Yeah.
00:51:30We need more balloons in the dining room.
00:51:35Oh!
00:51:37You're still here.
00:51:38Yeah.
00:51:40Listen, if someone were to ask Hannah to dance,
00:51:46what do you think the chances are that she would say yes?
00:51:50Probably good.
00:51:52Are you going to ask her to dance?
00:51:55No. No. No. No. No. No.
00:51:57No, I'm just a fan of wild, hypothetical scenarios.
00:52:03That one just sprung to mind.
00:52:05Okay.
00:52:08Yep.
00:52:10Um, well, I'm going to go
00:52:15help Blaine practice his speech.
00:52:19So I'm going to do that right now.
00:52:22I will see you later.
00:52:24Alright, see ya.
00:52:26And you must be Ariel.
00:52:31Yes, hi.
00:52:33Hmm.
00:52:35You know, my grandson has spoken very fondly of you.
00:52:38He has?
00:52:40Oh, yes, yes. In fact, he says that, well, this whole thing was your idea.
00:52:45I suppose so.
00:52:47Wonderful.
00:52:49Kind of reminds me of something Blaine's father would have done
00:52:53if he were in Blaine's situation.
00:52:55Wow, that's such an honor.
00:52:57I heard he was a great man.
00:52:59He was a great man.
00:53:00He was a great man.
00:53:02Martina.
00:53:04Have you had the pleasure of meeting Blaine's assistant, Ariel?
00:53:08Yes, briefly.
00:53:10She's really helped Blaine become quite an impressive CEO.
00:53:13Yes, she has. In fact, I can see her playing a bigger role at Ellington
00:53:19if she keeps it up.
00:53:21Why wait? She could be a part of something huge tonight.
00:53:24Really?
00:53:26I think so. Don't you, Ariel?
00:53:28Uh, uh-huh.
00:53:30Amazing.
00:53:32Well, I can't wait.
00:53:38Me either.
00:53:57Ariel.
00:53:59Blaine.
00:54:01There you are. I've been looking everywhere for you.
00:54:03Here I am.
00:54:05Have you seen Valentina?
00:54:07No, I haven't.
00:54:09No?
00:54:11No, I haven't.
00:54:13No, I haven't.
00:54:15No, I haven't.
00:54:17No, I haven't.
00:54:19No, I haven't.
00:54:21No, I haven't.
00:54:23No, I haven't.
00:54:25No, I haven't.
00:54:27No, I don't think so.
00:54:29About your height, flowy hair, no glasses?
00:54:32Um, no. No, I don't think so.
00:54:35In fact...
00:54:37What?
00:54:39Nothing. It's ridiculous.
00:54:41I better say hi to those guests, but if you could find her for me, that would be great.
00:54:46I'll get right on that.
00:54:48Thank you. Bye.
00:54:57Just go out there and hype Blaine up so he can deliver his speech.
00:55:02Then we're back to finding the drive.
00:55:04Okay.
00:55:06You can do this.
00:55:09Oh, hi Ariel.
00:55:13Uh, you must be mistaken, love.
00:55:16I don't know this Ariel you speak of.
00:55:19Yeah, okay. Ariel.
00:55:21Ariel?
00:55:23No, seriously. My name is Valentina Kingsley and I'm a very wealthy socialite.
00:55:29Oh, I get it. It's like one of those improv games or something.
00:55:34No, no, no. No game. My name is...
00:55:37Who else should I be?
00:55:39Just be yourself.
00:55:41I'm the Queen of England.
00:55:45You can really tell it's me?
00:55:46You can really tell it's me?
00:55:48Yeah, but, I mean, I can be very observant.
00:55:52Really?
00:55:54Okay, well, Hannah, it's very important that this stays between us.
00:55:58Okay. Can I ask why?
00:56:01Well, it's really complicated, but you have to promise me you won't tell anybody about this.
00:56:08Can we make it a pinky promise?
00:56:11Yeah, sure.
00:56:12Come on.
00:56:14Well, good luck with whatever this is.
00:56:20Yeah, thanks. I'm gonna need it.
00:56:43Ah, there you are, darling.
00:56:45Valentina. I'm so glad to see you.
00:56:48Look at this place. I haven't seen a ball as elegant as this since the King of Spain's birthday.
00:56:53I'm glad it lives up to your approval.
00:56:55Of course. You're doing a speech, I see.
00:56:58Oh, I'm not much of a speech giver.
00:57:01They're gonna eat you up, darling.
00:57:03You make me feel so confident.
00:57:06I need to be looking at you when I give my speech.
00:57:13Of course.
00:57:15Okay, perfect.
00:57:17Well, I saw a fellow philanthropist outside. I must go speak with her.
00:57:21Valentina, I was thinking maybe tonight I could show you the AI code.
00:57:30Yes, I would love to see what you've been working on.
00:57:34Great.
00:57:36Where would this be taking place? In the study, or...?
00:57:39Upstairs. Hidden in a very high-tech safe.
00:57:43Ah, I see.
00:57:46You actually inspired my security team to create a new hiding space for it.
00:57:52What the heck did I say?
00:57:54I'll give you a hint.
00:57:56If you were to look for it, you'd be staring at the most beautiful thing in the world.
00:58:02I'll let you get back to socializing.
00:58:06Good luck, darling.
00:58:31Excuse me, what are you doing in here?
00:58:37Um...
00:58:38And who are you?
00:58:40Oh, um, uh...
00:58:43Um, I, I, um...
00:58:46You look lost.
00:58:49I am, darling.
00:58:51I am lost.
00:58:53I've been to a lot of mansions, but this one is big.
00:58:58Grandfather, this is Valentina Kingsley.
00:59:01Blaine's new girlfriend.
00:59:04Oh, yes, yes, from the front page of the Times.
00:59:08Yes, I've heard a lot about you.
00:59:10I hope it was all good things.
00:59:12Well, I haven't seen him smile quite as much as he does now, since his father passed.
00:59:19And I trust that Blaine is treating you respectfully, like a lady.
00:59:25He is.
00:59:27Well, it was a good thing that we were up here to find you.
00:59:30If it had been during Blaine's speech, no one would know you're here.
00:59:35Right.
00:59:37Good thing.
00:59:39Shall we return to the party?
00:59:41Yes, we shall.
00:59:43Very nice meeting you, Miss Kingsley.
00:59:46You too, sir.
00:59:48You seem quiet. Is everything all right?
00:59:52Yes, everything's fine.
00:59:54I'm just a little tired.
00:59:56You should get some rest.
00:59:58I will.
01:00:00Are you sure?
01:00:02Yes, I'll be fine.
01:00:04All right, then.
01:00:06All right.
01:00:08I'll see you later.
01:00:10Bye-bye.
01:00:12Bye-bye.
01:00:14Bye-bye.
01:00:15Is everything alright?
01:00:17Everything's fine, darling.
01:00:19Hey, Valentina.
01:00:21I have a girl question for you.
01:00:27Oh my God, for the love of God.
01:00:29You clearly have a crush on Hannah.
01:00:31Just ask her to dance.
01:00:33You just met me, you can already tell?
01:00:35Yes.
01:00:37You read me like a book.
01:00:39I see what Blaine sees in you.
01:00:41You're really inquisitive.
01:00:43I'll go butter her up for you.
01:00:45Would you? That would be great.
01:00:49Dude.
01:00:53Hannah, I need a favor.
01:00:55Anything.
01:00:57When Blaine is giving his speech, I'm going to step away.
01:00:59If anyone asks, I'm not feeling well.
01:01:01And Ariel
01:01:03is going to help Valentina
01:01:05get some medicine.
01:01:07Got it.
01:01:09Oh, and Kurt's going to ask you to dance.
01:01:11Really?
01:01:13Sorry.
01:01:15When?
01:01:17Tonight.
01:01:19Oh right, it's a ball.
01:01:21Okay.
01:01:39It's time, brother. You ready?
01:01:41As ready as I'll ever be.
01:01:47Thank you for coming tonight.
01:01:49It means a lot.
01:01:51Of course.
01:01:53You're going to be amazing.
01:02:01Ladies and gentlemen,
01:02:03I want to thank you all so much for coming out here tonight.
01:02:05It is my great honor
01:02:07and privilege to introduce my good friend,
01:02:09your CEO
01:02:11of Ellington Incorporated,
01:02:13Mr. Blaine Ellington.
01:02:19Good evening, everyone.
01:02:21I want to,
01:02:23before we get started,
01:02:25thank two people who,
01:02:27without their help, none of this would have happened tonight.
01:02:29My assistant, Ariel,
01:02:31and my girlfriend, Valentina.
01:02:37Not sure where they are right now,
01:02:39but I want to thank them
01:02:41for having my back.
01:02:43Hi, Anna.
01:02:45Oh, hi.
01:02:47You haven't seen Valentina around, have you?
01:02:49I wanted to try to find her
01:02:51so she can watch Blaine's speech.
01:02:53Valentina is sick
01:02:55and Ariel was helping her
01:02:57get medicine.
01:02:59Oh, okay.
01:03:01Um, you look
01:03:03really pretty, by the way.
01:03:05Thanks.
01:03:07You look really pretty, too.
01:03:09Thanks.
01:03:11You look really pretty, too.
01:03:35Alright, time to find this code.
01:03:41Okay.
01:03:57Blaine mentioned something I said?
01:03:59What the heck did I say?
01:04:03Paintings.
01:04:11Paintings.
01:04:19So, tonight,
01:04:21I'm pledging $10 million
01:04:23to help research
01:04:25cures for illnesses and disorders
01:04:27unknown.
01:04:29Thank you all for coming.
01:04:31I hope to see you on the dance floor.
01:04:41I'm sorry, Mom.
01:04:43I failed you.
01:05:11I'm sorry.
01:05:25I'll give you a hint.
01:05:27If you were to look for it,
01:05:29you'd be staring at the most beautiful thing
01:05:31in the world.
01:05:35He wasn't talking about the painting.
01:05:37He was talking about me.
01:06:07Okay.
01:06:31Okay.
01:06:34Think, Ariel.
01:06:47What could the numbers be?
01:06:49It couldn't be our first date,
01:06:51could it?
01:07:03No.
01:07:19I've got the code.
01:07:21Excellent, darling.
01:07:23I'll give it to you after the ball.
01:07:25Or you could give it to me now.
01:07:29Flora?
01:07:34What are you doing here?
01:07:37I have a way of being places I'm not supposed to be.
01:07:39Just like you, apparently.
01:07:43The code, darling.
01:07:49The future.
01:07:51In the palm of my hand.
01:07:55I was beginning to think you didn't have it in you.
01:07:58Blaine's a good man.
01:08:01You're awful.
01:08:03He's rich, darling. He'll get over it.
01:08:05My mom?
01:08:07And her surgery?
01:08:09I've been accused of many things.
01:08:11But I always keep my word.
01:08:14Now, go and celebrate.
01:08:16You deserve it, darling.
01:08:31The future.
01:08:44Valencina.
01:08:45Hi, darling.
01:08:46There you are.
01:08:48How are you feeling?
01:08:50Stronger than the rains in the Amazon, darling.
01:08:52Excellent.
01:08:54Care to dance?
01:08:56Certainly.
01:09:00Well, well, well.
01:09:04Look at the happy couple.
01:09:10How did you get in?
01:09:12Oh, I have my ways.
01:09:14We lied about our names on the guest list.
01:09:16Anyway...
01:09:20I just came here to congratulate you
01:09:22on your little events.
01:09:24You need to leave.
01:09:26Actually, I don't think I do.
01:09:28Because I don't think you know
01:09:30who your little girlfriend is.
01:09:32She's Valentina Kingsley.
01:09:34No, no, no.
01:09:36There is no Valentina Kingsley.
01:09:38What?
01:09:40If only your little assistant
01:09:42had assisted you
01:09:44in researching her.
01:09:46You know, it's funny.
01:09:48I haven't actually seen her
01:09:50all night.
01:09:52Blaine, don't listen to him.
01:09:54What is he talking about?
01:09:56I have fooled everyone
01:09:58in here.
01:10:00But an ex-boyfriend never
01:10:02forgets a butt.
01:10:14Ariel?
01:10:26This whole time
01:10:28you've been Valentina?
01:10:30That's right.
01:10:32This whole time
01:10:34you pretended to care about me.
01:10:36But you're just a liar.
01:10:38And worse.
01:10:40She's poor.
01:10:42Why?
01:10:44Yes, Ariel.
01:10:46But why?
01:10:48I'm so sorry.
01:10:50Ariel. Ariel, wait.
01:10:52How embarrassing.
01:10:54How embarrassing.
01:10:56You know,
01:10:58I looked into you.
01:11:00You're in so much debt
01:11:02that it's surprising that you can even
01:11:04rent the Lambo that you drove here.
01:11:06How preposterous.
01:11:08If anybody looks into that,
01:11:10it will be a complete waste of time.
01:11:12Ew. You're poor?
01:11:16Regina!
01:11:19Phew.
01:11:21You're my hero.
01:11:23Thanks. Sometimes I just
01:11:25gotta tell her. You know?
01:11:30Ariel!
01:11:40What are you smiling about?
01:11:42I mean, come on.
01:11:44This proves it, right?
01:11:46He's a joke.
01:11:48No, he is your brother, Martina.
01:11:50He's a liability, Richard.
01:11:52And you are giving him the company
01:11:54with the luxury of not having to deal
01:11:56with this shit show because you won't be alive
01:11:58much longer.
01:12:00Oh, well, don't bet on that.
01:12:02You know, you've got a lot of nerve
01:12:04talking to me like this, kid.
01:12:06You've got a lot of nerve
01:12:08letting this ship go down when the lifeboat
01:12:10is right in front of you.
01:12:12I should be running this company!
01:12:14Or is this what success
01:12:16looks like to you?
01:12:20Look, I'm not poor.
01:12:22I don't want to hear it.
01:12:24I do not want to hear it.
01:12:26You lied to me. Not only did you lie to me,
01:12:28but you embarrassed me in there.
01:12:30That is fair.
01:12:36Regina!
01:12:44Regina!
01:13:00That was a disaster.
01:13:06I just don't understand.
01:13:08Why would she go through all of that?
01:13:10I don't know.
01:13:12But, uh,
01:13:14these scandals are exhausting.
01:13:16Yeah.
01:13:18I don't think I'll be dating anytime soon.
01:13:22Right.
01:13:26I got a lot to think about.
01:13:28What do you mean?
01:13:30I mean we may have to take
01:13:32the company in a complete different direction
01:13:34if we're gonna gain back the public's trust.
01:13:38You can't be serious.
01:13:40Oh.
01:13:44Something better happen sooner.
01:13:46I guess much worse.
01:13:50Did she want anything from you?
01:13:52I don't know, Martina.
01:13:54Nothing valuable?
01:13:56Martina, I said I don't...
01:14:10No!
01:14:20No!
01:14:30Ariel. Baby.
01:14:32Oh.
01:14:34You look like you had a rough night.
01:14:36It was a disaster, really.
01:14:38I feel awful.
01:14:40Oh.
01:14:42I'm so sorry to hear that, baby.
01:14:44Thanks, Mom.
01:14:46Well,
01:14:48I have something to tell you.
01:14:50Dr. Westfall called.
01:14:52Are you okay? What's going on?
01:14:54He said
01:14:56that an anonymous donor
01:14:58sent in the funds for me to have my operation.
01:15:00What?
01:15:02I'm scheduled for surgery on Tuesday.
01:15:04Oh, my God.
01:15:06Mom,
01:15:08I'm so happy.
01:15:10I think this calls
01:15:12for my famous chocolate cake, huh?
01:15:14I agree.
01:15:36It's time to celebrate.
01:15:42To the future, darling.
01:15:52Drink.
01:15:54You've worked much too hard
01:15:56not to revel in your victory.
01:15:58I'm sorry, Mom.
01:16:00I can't.
01:16:02I can't.
01:16:04You've worked much too hard
01:16:06not to revel in your victory.
01:16:10There it is.
01:16:12Doesn't our little prize look nice?
01:16:14People walk in
01:16:16and out of my office
01:16:18having no idea what's in the room with them.
01:16:20Of course,
01:16:22I won't be able to enjoy it too much longer
01:16:24since my programmer
01:16:26is going to pick it up tonight.
01:16:28I guess I just feel bad.
01:16:30To get what you want in life,
01:16:32sometimes you have to do bold things.
01:16:34Break the rules a little.
01:16:38I guess.
01:16:40Ask any CEO
01:16:42and they'll agree,
01:16:44including your little boy toy.
01:16:46Blaine would never do anything like that.
01:16:48Well, anyway,
01:16:50speaking of money,
01:16:52let's get that surgery paid for,
01:16:54shall we?
01:16:56What?
01:16:58All I need is your wiring info
01:17:00I trust that the
01:17:02original estimate hasn't changed?
01:17:04I'm sorry,
01:17:06you haven't paid for the surgery yet?
01:17:08No,
01:17:10that's why we're here, isn't it?
01:17:14Darlene?
01:17:30All right.
01:17:40One more drink
01:17:42and we'll start packing up my things.
01:17:44Deal.
01:17:46One more.
01:17:52Anna.
01:17:54Hi, Mr. Ellington. May I come in?
01:17:56Sure, come on in.
01:18:02Care for a drink?
01:18:04Oh, no. I stopped drinking on the job ages ago.
01:18:06Wait, what was that?
01:18:08Mr. Ellington, I have a delivery for you.
01:18:10From who?
01:18:12Ariel.
01:18:16From who?
01:18:18Ariel.
01:18:20I don't want it. Take it back.
01:18:22She said you might say that,
01:18:24but she said that it was very, very important.
01:18:26How important?
01:18:28I don't know, but
01:18:30she did say that it was something
01:18:32so important that she only trusted me
01:18:34to deliver it, so it must be a big deal.
01:18:50Oh, my God.
01:18:52Oh, my God!
01:18:54What's happening?
01:18:56What's going on? What does this mean?
01:19:16Oh, Flora?
01:19:18Yes, Darlene?
01:19:20Your appointment had to leave early.
01:19:22No.
01:19:24I didn't have any appointments scheduled for today.
01:19:26What was the name?
01:19:28Um...
01:19:30Valentina Kingsley?
01:19:32No!
01:19:50You're rich.
01:19:52You'll get over it.
01:19:54Darlene.
01:20:02Oh, my God.
01:20:08What's going on?
01:20:10What does this mean?
01:20:16Thank you for everything.
01:20:22Hannah, did you want to
01:20:24help me with that thing?
01:20:26Yes, yes.
01:20:28Let's do that.
01:20:32Can you
01:20:34please get the hell out of my seat?
01:20:40Lane,
01:20:42there's no easy way for me to say
01:20:44this,
01:20:46but it's time.
01:20:56But it's time.
01:21:02To celebrate.
01:21:08You are going to regret this.
01:21:10I promise you that.
01:21:16Jeez.
01:21:18What did you do?
01:21:20I don't know, girl, but the way she wears that dress,
01:21:22she can step on me any day.
01:21:26I knew you could do it.
01:21:28I knew it.
01:21:30You know,
01:21:32your dad would be so proud of you.
01:21:44Dr. Westfall.
01:21:46Oh, hi, Ariel.
01:21:48Is surgery over? How did it go?
01:21:50Yes, we just finished.
01:21:52There were complications.
01:21:54Complications?
01:21:56Yes, but we were able to work through them,
01:21:58Really?
01:22:00Really, yes.
01:22:02In fact, they're wheeling her back into her room right now.
01:22:04She's going to need to rest for a few hours,
01:22:06but when she wakes up, she's going to feel better
01:22:08than she has in a long time.
01:22:10I can't thank you enough.
01:22:12I'm happy to help.
01:22:52Come in, come in.
01:22:54Welcome.
01:22:58Ariel.
01:23:00Mom, why didn't you let me out of bed?
01:23:02The doctor said to stay in after surgery.
01:23:04I know, I know,
01:23:06but I saw this cute guy through the window
01:23:08and I got kind of excited.
01:23:12Are you hungry, thirsty?
01:23:14No, thank you, but thank you.
01:23:16Oh, thank you.
01:23:18Sit down, make yourself comfortable.
01:23:20Mom, do you mind
01:23:22giving us some privacy?
01:23:24Oh, of course.
01:23:26I'll just be right over here,
01:23:28don't mind me.
01:23:38I'm so, so sorry.
01:23:40I, uh,
01:23:42I understand why you did it.
01:23:46And you gave me the drive back,
01:23:48so there's no need to apologize.
01:23:50Thank you for everything.
01:23:52Thank you for everything.
01:23:56I don't even know where to start.
01:24:00I'm not looking for an apology.
01:24:02You're not?
01:24:04No.
01:24:06See, I'm still CEO
01:24:08and I need an assistant.
01:24:10And you're kind of
01:24:12the best in town.
01:24:14I accept.
01:24:16And, uh,
01:24:18I'm still looking for a girlfriend.
01:24:22Well,
01:24:24if you're open to it,
01:24:26I'd love to apply.
01:24:40I love you, Valentina.
01:24:42I mean, Ariel.
01:24:44And that's gonna take a while.
01:24:46That's gonna take
01:24:48some getting used to.
01:24:50There aren't any
01:24:52starry rooftop views here,
01:24:54but this is my
01:24:56special place.
01:24:58It's even better.
