00:00:00So tell me, Hayes, how does it feel to be considered for MVP of the year?
00:00:08Well, none of this would have been happening without the person who never gave up on me.
00:00:12You and me, forever and always.
00:00:24Say yes! Say yes! Say yes!
00:00:27We're happy for you!
00:00:32Live right here at the BUN Media in front of millions of viewers, Carl Hayes popped the question and she picked it!
00:00:41I love you so much. You're the best quarterback and you're going to be the best.
00:00:50The best of what?
00:00:53What?
00:01:00Joanna! Hey!
00:01:03Are you okay?
00:01:06I'm sorry. It's okay.
00:01:10If my brother hadn't gotten involved with that game, my fiance's sister would still be alive.
00:01:15You think you can steal from me and run? Now, you're going to pay.
00:01:20No! Say yes!
00:01:50My daughter is dead! My son will never play football! All because of your toxic family!
00:02:17How dare you show your face here!
00:02:19Daniel, please!
00:02:21He'll never forgive you for destroying his dream!
00:02:24He'll hate you until the day he dies!
00:02:27You and your family are dead to us!
00:02:30We're engaged! I'm carrying his...
00:02:36Don't you dare think about marrying him!
00:02:43Now, get the hell out and never come back!
00:02:48I'm sorry, baby. Daddy doesn't want us anymore.
00:02:55Carl Hayes, an NFL MVP seven years ago, is now a multi-millionaire and CEO of Shadow Group.
00:03:14Sir, sir, sir!
00:03:16All right, all right, all right, all right, people!
00:03:19He's going to be giving an official press conference next week.
00:03:22You're just going to have to be patient until then, all right?
00:03:24Goodbye! Thank you!
00:03:27That was pretty good.
00:03:29Yeah, it was good.
00:03:47Hi, my name's Natalie Collins. I had a reservation for two rooms.
00:03:51Great, just one moment, please.
00:03:53Tomorrow, you'll be with your mom.
00:03:56But tonight, it's going to be just you and me.
00:03:59How does that sound?
00:04:01Patrick's going to be so jealous when I tell him.
00:04:04Evie was actually telling me that Patrick's father's from Los Angeles. Is that true?
00:04:09Uh, yeah.
00:04:12But I doubt he's still around. We didn't part on good terms.
00:04:15Oh.
00:04:17Thank you for choosing Lagoon Hotel. Enjoy your stay.
00:04:22Daddy, can we watch cartoons when we get up to the room?
00:04:25Of course we can, sweetie.
00:04:28I love cartoons.
00:04:31I love cartoons.
00:05:01I love cartoons.
00:05:22Forgive me, but...
00:05:24You look like somebody that I met years ago.
00:05:27Somebody that I wish I'd never see again.
00:05:39Hey, you look like my best friend, Patrick.
00:05:42Hey, sweetie, how about you look at photos of me?
00:05:45That's me.
00:05:51You won't believe it. I think I saw your dad.
00:06:16I love you, too.
00:06:20I love you, too.
00:06:43Was that THE Natalie?
00:06:46You almost died trying to save her.
00:06:51And she just left without a word.
00:06:53Now she just shows up here with her family?
00:06:56She didn't just leave.
00:06:58I stepped in to help her.
00:07:00She abandoned you when you needed her most.
00:07:04You spent years searching for her, and just when you were finally about to move on,
00:07:08she comes in here out of nowhere and just flaunts her family in front of you?
00:07:12Okay, stop.
00:07:17You are never going to be able to forgive her!
00:07:34Mr. Hayes?
00:07:36Hello, I would like to know what room Miss Natalie Collins is in. She just checked in.
00:07:43It's a standard, sir.
00:07:46Figures. He's such a poor loser that he can't even afford a hotel suite.
00:07:50So that's who she ended up with after leaving me.
00:07:55You know, I bet you thought she was a goner after that attack.
00:07:58And now, all of a sudden, you're rich again.
00:08:00She comes crawling back. Typical.
00:08:04You know, I want to upgrade her to a luxury suite.
00:08:08And I want you to tell her that you're having maintenance. Okay?
00:08:11Why? Why are you doing this, man?
00:08:13She is married. She has a husband. She has a daughter.
00:08:16Do not tell me that you're still in love with her!
00:08:22Don't forget why Joanna is dead!
00:08:44Hi, Mommy. I really, really miss you.
00:08:47I miss you too, baby.
00:08:49But Mommy has to start work so she can get us a house.
00:08:52When are you coming to get me?
00:08:55Just as soon as my paperwork goes through. Two weeks, max.
00:09:01What are you playing?
00:09:03I'm the quarterback on my team.
00:09:06We're playing the Super Bowl.
00:09:09I'll talk to you very soon, darling, okay?
00:09:13Okay.
00:09:20Somebody that I wish I'd never see again.
00:09:24He'll hate you until the day he dies.
00:09:29It's been seven years, and he still hates me.
00:09:43I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:09:46I'm sorry.
00:09:48I'm sorry.
00:09:50I'm sorry.
00:09:52I'm sorry.
00:09:54I'm sorry.
00:10:05I don't know what the best way to do it.
00:10:09Running into Carl on my first day back.
00:10:12What if agreeing to this transfer was the biggest mistake I've ever made?
00:10:21Hi. Um, I'd like to extend my stay one more night, please.
00:10:29It looks like your room has already been booked for the next night.
00:10:33But, I'd be happy to upgrade you to the presidential suite. Free of charge, of course.
00:10:41Is your hotel always this generous?
00:11:04You finally came.
00:11:08What is it, uh, been seven years?
00:11:13Just because I came doesn't mean I forgive you.
00:11:17Honestly.
00:11:19After everything you've done, I don't know if I have the right to.
00:11:27How, uh, how are you?
00:11:31How, uh, how are you and Carl?
00:11:49How, uh, how are you and Carl?
00:11:53Are you doing okay?
00:11:55You got involved in a gang and got a sister killed.
00:12:00How could things ever be okay between us?
00:12:05You have two years left on your sentence.
00:12:09I suggest you use it to become a better person.
00:12:16Natalie, wait!
00:12:26Tomorrow's Joanne's birthday.
00:12:31Please, can we visit her grave and tell her I'm sorry?
00:12:56I hope you're in peace.
00:12:59In your next life.
00:13:01Don't skip school, get into fights, or date punk kids like Matt.
00:13:07Mom, hey, you don't actually have to go all the way to the grave.
00:13:11She's my daughter. I need to be with her today.
00:13:14Okay, Mom. Mom, listen.
00:13:16You don't have to go all the way to the grave.
00:13:18You don't have to go all the way to the grave.
00:13:21You don't have to go all the way to the grave.
00:13:24Listen, do that.
00:13:26Mom.
00:13:43What are you doing here?
00:13:46Matt asked me to visit Joanne's grave.
00:13:50Take your cheap flowers and get the hell out of here.
00:13:53You and your filthy family don't belong anywhere near my daughter.
00:13:57You and your filthy family don't belong anywhere near my daughter.
00:14:19Hey!
00:14:21Hey!
00:14:26What do you think you're doing?
00:14:28You trying to get yourself killed?
00:14:30Does that make you hate me less?
00:14:36Come on.
00:14:51Come on.
00:14:58What kind of husband lets his wife walk back to a hotel in weather like this, do you know?
00:15:22Why didn't you answer?
00:15:24It's none of your business.
00:15:26None of my business?
00:15:28It's been seven years.
00:15:30Not a word.
00:15:32Now you just want to show up happily married?
00:15:35Really?
00:15:37Don't you think that I, who is your ex-fiancé, deserves an explanation?
00:15:42If you don't want to see me, I'll go.
00:15:44Let me tell you something.
00:15:46Let me tell you something.
00:15:48Let me tell you something.
00:15:50My sister died.
00:15:52My football career ended.
00:15:53Not a word from you after you left.
00:15:56Do you have any idea what I have been through?
00:15:59Hmm?
00:16:01Or let me guess.
00:16:03You just didn't care.
00:16:05How could you say that?
00:16:07Do you really think I'm that cold?
00:16:09I don't know. You tell me.
00:16:11He'll hate you until the day he dies.
00:16:19You and your family are dead to us.
00:16:23Now get the hell out and never come back.
00:16:30Lay me for your life if that helps you sleep at night.
00:16:35Let me out.
00:16:41Why?
00:16:43Because you're scared of being alone with me?
00:16:45Why? You don't want your husband to know that you were with me for five years?
00:16:48That I was the first man that you ever made love to?
00:16:52Shut up!
00:16:53Did you ever tell him that my tongue has traced every inch of your body?
00:16:56That you would scream my name every time he would come?
00:16:59Has he ever done that to you?
00:17:01Hmm?
00:17:02Has he?
00:17:03Has he?
00:17:10You're such a bastard.
00:17:35Mother, what are you doing here?
00:17:38I found this in your car.
00:17:40Don't tell me you were with that woman yesterday.
00:17:43It was raining and she needed a ride.
00:17:46Okay? It was a harmless encounter.
00:17:50Have you forgotten?
00:17:52You'd still have a sister if it weren't for that wretched woman.
00:17:55No, I have not forgotten.
00:17:57I heard she's married with a daughter.
00:18:00You've met them.
00:18:01And?
00:18:03You're still not over her.
00:18:06She's never cared about you.
00:18:09Going after a married woman.
00:18:11You've got no self respect, have you?
00:18:13Okay.
00:18:16There's no need to worry.
00:18:17She has moved on with a new life and I'm not going to hold on to the past.
00:18:23I've spoken with Jessica.
00:18:26Our families are well matched.
00:18:29Think of the things she can give you.
00:18:32Stability.
00:18:33A family.
00:18:34A wife you can lean on.
00:18:37We'll see.
00:19:00Natalie, I'm glad you could finally make it.
00:19:03The Shadow Group's legendary annual partnership is important so try and look like you're having a good time.
00:19:10I will do my best to please our biggest client.
00:19:12Come on, let me introduce you to everyone.
00:19:14You're going to want to meet our newest team member.
00:19:17Everyone!
00:19:19This is Natalie, our brilliant new senior attorney.
00:19:23We stole her from the Chicago branch.
00:19:25She is an expert in IPO cases.
00:19:28With her on board, we are in a stronger position to help the Shadow Group go public.
00:19:33Wow.
00:19:34Pleasure to meet you, Natalie.
00:19:35It sounds like my boss would be eager to meet you.
00:19:37He wants the public offering to go off without him.
00:19:39That's why I'm here.
00:19:47Mr. Hayes!
00:19:48I've been waiting for you.
00:19:59What are you doing here?
00:20:05Do you two already know each other?
00:20:07Yes!
00:20:08No?
00:20:09What about that day seven years ago?
00:20:11In the field?
00:20:13I just moved here from Chicago.
00:20:16Well, you know what?
00:20:18I don't know you.
00:20:20I don't know you.
00:20:22I don't know you.
00:20:24I don't know you.
00:20:25I don't know you.
00:20:28I must be mistaken.
00:20:30Yes, because I was wondering how our newest associate could possibly know you.
00:20:34Natalie, this is Carl Hayes, founder and CEO of the Shadow Group.
00:20:40This is Natalie Collins.
00:20:43It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Hayes.
00:20:46You as well.
00:20:57Why is this tramp here?
00:20:59You ain't trying to steal my man again, are you?
00:21:02Lover!
00:21:03Hi!
00:21:20Jessica!
00:21:21Hi!
00:21:22Hi, Jessica.
00:21:24What are you doing here?
00:21:26Well, Delia said that you might need some rescuing, so I thought I'd whisk you away.
00:21:32Well, it looks like you two have a ton to talk about, so I'll leave you to it.
00:21:36Well, you know what, Miss Collins?
00:21:38I actually am going to need you for something.
00:21:40And you, Jessica, my driver will take you home.
00:21:43You, come with me.
00:21:53Sit.
00:21:57Take them off.
00:22:16Take them off.
00:22:18Excuse me?
00:22:20Your shoes.
00:22:21Your feet are hurting you, I can tell.
00:22:23I'm fine.
00:22:27You know, I can always tell when you're lying.
00:22:30Because you get a little funny crease between your eyebrows.
00:22:34Are you really going to try to play this off for the next three hours?
00:22:37I mean, come on, where's your husband?
00:22:39Doesn't he care about you at all?
00:22:41I...
00:22:42One sec.
00:22:49I can take care of myself.
00:23:04Okay, come on.
00:23:14Okay.
00:23:16You were always so stubborn.
00:23:19Do you remember the last time this happened to us?
00:23:22Yeah.
00:23:23Yeah.
00:23:24It was your NFL draft celebration party.
00:23:28I wanted to look perfect for the party.
00:23:31So I wore those god-awful three-inch ponys.
00:23:34And then you couldn't walk for like two days after that.
00:23:38You were busy with the team, you didn't notice I was gone.
00:23:40I noticed.
00:23:53I'm sorry.
00:24:09You know, why did you come back?
00:24:11What?
00:24:12No, no, seriously.
00:24:13Why didn't you just...
00:24:14Why didn't you just stay away forever like you were dead?
00:24:17Because seeing you again, it reminds me of everything that my family lost that day.
00:24:21It just moved on like it was nothing.
00:24:23That's not true.
00:24:24It's not true? Really?
00:24:25Because you went and you got married and you had a kid.
00:24:27And you know Matt is going to get out and he's going to live the rest of his life.
00:24:31But Joanna?
00:24:32Joanna is always going to be 19.
00:24:34And I hate, I hate how unfair that is.
00:24:38You know what? You're right.
00:24:40It was Matt's fault for getting involved with the game.
00:24:43But it was your family's fault for not disciplining Joanna.
00:24:46Not mine.
00:24:47I didn't force Joanna to date Matt.
00:24:50Her death has nothing to do with me.
00:24:52And you know what?
00:24:54You have never changed.
00:24:56You are still so cold and selfish.
00:25:00Fine.
00:25:01Hate me all you want. I don't care.
00:25:07Why'd you leave if you're already married?
00:25:13I didn't come back for you.
00:25:15You and your mother can live in your hate.
00:25:18Okay?
00:25:19Unlike you, I had to start a new life for myself.
00:25:44Okay.
00:25:46Mommy!
00:25:48Oh, I missed you so much.
00:25:53Thank you so much for taking care of my baby.
00:25:55Of course, I'm his godmom. I'd do anything for this cutie.
00:25:59So, what do you say kiddo?
00:26:00Let's grab some ice cream and hot dogs and head over to have a picnic at that fancy new park that opened up?
00:26:05Yes!
00:26:06Yes!
00:26:07Let's go!
00:26:09Mom!
00:26:12I cannot believe you and Carl ended up in the same town again after all of these years.
00:26:18I know.
00:26:19What are you going to do if he finds out about...
00:26:21I mean, he's going to figure out the kid is his.
00:26:24All you have to do is look at Patrick to see that he's Carl's.
00:26:39He's going to figure out the kid is his.
00:26:41All you have to do is look at Patrick to see that he's Carl's.
00:26:45I'll keep him separated.
00:26:55I'm sorry.
00:26:57It's too late.
00:27:09I'm pleased to announce the approval of the new residential project.
00:27:13Very good.
00:27:18Another successful business transaction for residential real estate!
00:27:22You're killing it man!
00:27:25Daddy!
00:27:26Wake up!
00:27:27Oh, there he goes.
00:27:28Daddy!
00:27:29Wake up!
00:27:30Hi!
00:27:31Hey!
00:27:32Buddy!
00:27:39Hey!
00:27:46Okay, stand here.
00:27:49I think you have the wrong person.
00:27:51Do you know where your parents are?
00:27:53My mom is here but my daddy died.
00:27:55I dreamed about him and you look just like him.
00:27:58Oh really?
00:27:59Is that right?
00:28:02Do you like football?
00:28:03You do?
00:28:04Are you married?
00:28:08No.
00:28:09Perfect!
00:28:10You can marry my mommy.
00:28:12She's real pretty.
00:28:14Is that Carl?
00:28:15He looks hot.
00:28:16I gotta help him.
00:28:18Where'd she go?
00:28:33Obvious mother...
00:28:35There you are!
00:28:37Gotta keep a close eye on this one.
00:28:39Okay.
00:28:40You know what?
00:28:42Come on back here.
00:28:46You can have this.
00:28:49Thanks daddy.
00:28:51Okay, well, that's all we're going to say.
00:28:54Here we go.
00:28:55The coin is a collector's item.
00:28:56How are you going to give it to a kid that you just met?
00:28:59I don't know.
00:29:00I felt like a connection or something.
00:29:02Well, you did look a lot like you.
00:29:04If I'd have known any better, I'd say you have a secret son.
00:29:07Okay, well, that's just amazing.
00:29:10Mommy, daddy gave this to me.
00:29:13Sweetie, why would you call that man daddy?
00:29:15I dreamed about him and he looks just like him.
00:29:19I wish I could tell you he's really your dad.
00:29:35Annie!
00:29:36Mommy, I'm here!
00:29:41How are you?
00:29:42I'm good.
00:29:43Auntie Natalie's on the phone.
00:29:47Hi, Auntie Natalie.
00:29:48Can we have another girls' night?
00:29:50This time I'm bringing mommy.
00:29:52Wait a minute.
00:29:53They're not Natalie's daughter and husband?
00:29:56Dude, I knew it!
00:29:59Carl, the IPO filings are looking solid.
00:30:02Let's make sure everything's in place.
00:30:04We don't want any trouble with the SEC.
00:30:07Why is it Natalie Collins in this meeting?
00:30:10She asked for the day off.
00:30:12It's Valentine's Day.
00:30:13Probably on a hot date.
00:30:15Bet she has men lining up, too.
00:30:28Miss Natalie Collins is the lead on this IPO.
00:30:31She does not miss meetings.
00:30:32Now, if this case is not important to the firm
00:30:34or Miss Collins,
00:30:35I'm more than happy to pull the plug
00:30:37on the entire thing all together.
00:30:39As a partner in this firm, I assure you,
00:30:41it is our top priority.
00:30:46Fine.
00:30:47I'll do it.
00:30:48I'll do it.
00:30:49I'll do it.
00:30:50I'll do it.
00:30:51I'll do it.
00:30:52I'll do it.
00:30:53I'll do it.
00:30:54I'll do it.
00:30:55I'll do it.
00:30:56I'll do it.
00:30:57Buy a candle.
00:31:02Thanks for spending the day with me, Mommy.
00:31:04There is nowhere else I'd rather be.
00:31:07So, what did you wish for?
00:31:09I can't tell you the wish won't come true.
00:31:11I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I forgot.
00:31:21Yes, Kevin?
00:31:22I just got out of a tense meeting with Carl Hayes
00:31:24about the IPO.
00:31:25Why weren't you there?
00:31:26I already took care of everything before I left.
00:31:29He didn't need me there.
00:31:30He's threatening to cancel the project because he thinks that you're not taking it seriously!
00:31:35He said what?!
00:31:36The firm was considering promoting you to partner next year, but if we lose Hayes, you can kiss that goodbye!
00:31:44Don't worry, I will smooth things over with Hayes.
00:31:47You better!
00:31:52Baby, I'm so sorry. Mommy has to go into work.
00:31:56I know, but Auntie Evie will come watch you.
00:31:59You're too keen, Mommy.
00:32:01Oh, you're such a brave boy.
00:32:04I'm so sorry.
00:32:19Hi, I'm Natalie Collins with Johnson & Meyer's Law Firm. Is Mr. Hayes on today?
00:32:24Sorry, no he's not.
00:32:41Is Mr. Hayes here today?
00:32:43I'm sorry, no, he's not in right now.
00:32:47Oh, Natalie, you looking for Mr. Hayes? I'm going to meet him at the golf course right now. Do you want to join us?
00:32:52Thank you so much.
00:32:59Oh, hey, aren't you Kevin's new wife? Natalie Collins, right?
00:33:03Top grad at Stanford, fastest rising associate. Why don't you come join my firm?
00:33:07No, thank you. I am actually very happy where I am. I'm actually here to discuss something with Mr. Hayes.
00:33:13Discuss what?
00:33:15You just think you can show up here whenever you want and I'll drop everything?
00:33:23This is business. Don't make it personal.
00:33:27Okay, when you missed my meeting and played hooky, it became my business.
00:33:32I didn't play hooky. I assure you I had a legitimate excuse for staying home that day.
00:33:36Well, your excuses are irrelevant.
00:33:38You know, you really should go. Carl here was just handing the IPO filing over to me, so...
00:33:43Handing over the IPO filing to you? You're seriously going to hand it over to me?
00:33:47Well, I'm sure they'll show up to meetings.
00:33:50Let's make a bet. Steve and I will play against each other and whoever makes a hole-in-one secures the deal.
00:33:56What do you think, Steve?
00:33:57You know, I was the top golfer at this club last year. You're not even dressed properly.
00:34:02Just hit the ball.
00:34:03Okay.
00:34:34I'm sorry.
00:34:46A hole-in-one! Amazing!
00:34:48How did you do that?
00:34:50I wasn't around to compete last year. That's the only reason why you won.
00:34:55So, are you willing to work with me now?
00:34:58The firm? Yes. You? No.
00:35:02You've got to be kidding me.
00:35:03We'll talk in, let's say...
00:35:07Seven years.
00:35:08Don't let what happened between us get in the way of business.
00:35:16Now that's exactly what happens when you sleep with a client.
00:35:32Okay.
00:35:54That's weird.
00:35:56Let me go!
00:35:57Hey, hey! Go ahead and scream. Nobody can hear you out here.
00:36:04You know, I really hate losing to uppity bitches like you.
00:36:07But I kind of like when you fight back. It makes me want to more.
00:36:11Stay away from me.
00:36:12I'll give you ten times what your law firm pays.
00:36:15You just have to open your legs for me, that's all.
00:36:18Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Call, call, call. This is a misunderstanding.
00:36:20One more word from you, and I'll finish you. Get out of here.
00:36:35Hey, are you okay?
00:36:37I'm fine.
00:36:38I'm fine.
00:36:39I'm fine.
00:36:40I'm fine.
00:36:41I'm fine.
00:36:42I'm fine.
00:36:43I'm fine.
00:36:44I'm fine.
00:36:45I'm fine.
00:36:47Thank you for saving me.
00:36:49My car's over here. Come with me, okay?
00:36:52Come on, get up.
00:36:57Oh no, Patrick's at home.
00:37:00Actually, I can just take an Uber. It's fine.
00:37:17You really can't take me home?
00:37:20Why not?
00:37:21Uh, because my husband.
00:37:24He wouldn't feel comfortable with another man driving me home.
00:37:27Okay, well, whoever this guy is who's your husband, yeah, he's doing a really bad job.
00:37:32Because it seems like I'm always the one that's rescuing you.
00:37:36He's just busy with work.
00:37:38Really? Okay.
00:37:40Well, if you don't mind, can I ask you something?
00:37:43Really? Okay.
00:37:45Well, if you want to keep me as a client, I would stop fighting me on this if I was you.
00:37:54Time to go.
00:38:00Ready?
00:38:03Okay.
00:38:06Okay.
00:38:13Okay.
00:38:28Patrick, how would you like to go to the park?
00:38:30Cool. When?
00:38:31Now.
00:38:44What are you doing?
00:38:46I don't know, I just have, like, a lunch.
00:38:52Hmm, I don't know, it's weird. It looks like you have no men's clothes around here.
00:38:58Fine.
00:39:00There's no men's clothes in here because I'm not actually married.
00:39:03Oh.
00:39:05Wow, I'm shocked.
00:39:07I don't have to look so smug.
00:39:14Oh, so you do have a piece of men's clothing around here.
00:39:16What's this? Is this my old jersey?
00:39:29Is this my old jersey?
00:39:32That old thing, I completely forgot that it even existed.
00:39:35So you wouldn't care if I just threw it out?
00:39:39It's whatever, right?
00:39:41Okay.
00:39:44Huh.
00:39:46Come on.
00:39:47You know, I guess you only gave a damn about me when I was throwing touchdowns under the football field.
00:39:50But I'm actually glad that you left.
00:39:52Because it gave me all the motivation in the world to get back on my feet and become very successful.
00:39:58You act like I abandoned you.
00:40:01Do you not recall why I left?
00:40:03What are you talking about?
00:40:05Do you not recall why I left?
00:40:07What are you talking about?
00:40:11Okay, you know what?
00:40:13Where's your bathroom? I'll go get you a towel with some ice.
00:40:16Oh no.
00:40:17If he goes in there, he's going to see Patrick's toothbrush and bath toys.
00:40:22You should leave.
00:40:25I should leave?
00:40:27I've literally been here for five minutes and you're already pushing me out?
00:40:31Okay.
00:40:32Wait.
00:40:35Wait.
00:40:44I really appreciate you bringing me back here.
00:40:46I really do.
00:40:49I'm just not ready to explain everything to you yet.
00:40:56Here.
00:40:59You should take some cookies before you go.
00:41:03Did you make these?
00:41:06I don't remember you being a baker, but...
00:41:08Okay.
00:41:12No.
00:41:13You wouldn't say that if you knew it was your son who made them.
00:41:17Fine. Don't take them then.
00:41:19No, no. I...
00:41:21No, if you want the box back, you can come to the office tomorrow and we can discuss working together.
00:41:28Fine.
00:41:29I'll bring the IPO paperwork tomorrow.
00:41:32Actually, I have meetings all day tomorrow.
00:41:36Why don't you come in three days?
00:41:38No, actually, come in a week.
00:41:47Call Hazen. I've got his address.
00:41:50Tomorrow, I'm going to go see Daddy.
00:42:02Hi.
00:42:04Hey there, little guy.
00:42:07What can I help you with?
00:42:09I'm looking for Carl Hayes.
00:42:11Oh, well, you're going to need an appointment to see your CEO.
00:42:14He's very busy.
00:42:15Where's my daddy?
00:42:16What?
00:42:17Mr. Hayes has a kid?
00:42:19Since when?
00:42:21I don't know.
00:42:22I don't know.
00:42:23I don't know.
00:42:24I don't know.
00:42:25I don't know.
00:42:26I don't know.
00:42:27I don't know.
00:42:28I don't know.
00:42:29I don't know.
00:42:30I don't know.
00:42:31When?
00:42:32Robin, can you please, um...
00:42:34Daddy, there you are!
00:42:38Hey!
00:42:40What are you doing here?
00:42:41I just wanted to say hi, Daddy.
00:42:45Well, you know what?
00:42:47I'm not your daddy.
00:42:48Kid, I'm sorry.
00:42:50But if me and Natalie had a child,
00:42:52he'd probably be around this age.
00:43:02I just wanted to say thank you for the coin.
00:43:06I loved it.
00:43:08That's why I came here today, to return the favor.
00:43:11Oh, really?
00:43:13Remember at the park?
00:43:15I wanted to show you the most beautiful woman in the world,
00:43:19my mommy.
00:43:20But I could not find her.
00:43:22But I have her picture with me now.
00:43:25Can I see?
00:43:26Can I see?
00:43:37If you put your number in here,
00:43:40I'll send you the picture of my beautiful mommy.
00:43:52Here's Mr. Carl's number.
00:43:54Just send the photo there.
00:43:59Can you hold this?
00:44:00Yeah.
00:44:21You see, buddy, this, um...
00:44:23This is not your mommy.
00:44:25That's a movie star, you know that?
00:44:27But it's just that mommy is really busy.
00:44:30She never has time to take fancy pictures.
00:44:33I swear, she's just as pretty as this lady.
00:44:37I swear.
00:44:38All right, I, uh...
00:44:40I believe you.
00:44:42Ryan, can you please, please take him home?
00:44:44Yeah.
00:44:45Sure.
00:44:46Come on, buddy.
00:44:47I'll take you home.
00:44:54Go.
00:45:09I have been trying to reach you for over a week
00:45:11regarding the IPO,
00:45:12and you haven't answered any of my calls.
00:45:14Well, you know what?
00:45:15You really shouldn't be on that ankle of yours.
00:45:17Okay, wait a minute.
00:45:18Hey, Mr. Hayes actually has an important appointment.
00:45:21If you'd like to speak with him,
00:45:22you can go ahead and schedule an appointment with me.
00:45:24An appointment?
00:45:25I've been trying to schedule one for over a week.
00:45:27Okay.
00:45:28Maybe you should just...
00:45:29You promised me.
00:45:31Are you just another man that goes back on his word?
00:45:33Listen, I have a few more meetings today,
00:45:35so I need you to stay in the lobby,
00:45:37and I will come get you when I'm ready, all right?
00:45:40Okay.
00:45:44She just sat there and waited all day for Mr. Hayes.
00:45:48Someone should have told her that he left hours ago.
00:45:52Okay.
00:45:57Next time you see Mr. Hayes, please let him know to call me.
00:46:11Hello?
00:46:12Hello, Natalie.
00:46:13Mr. Hayes is available to see you now.
00:46:23Okay.
00:46:35Hello?
00:46:37I'm sorry, I'm going to have to cancel the meeting I just scheduled with you.
00:46:40Mr. Hayes can't see you after all.
00:46:42I know he's there with you.
00:46:43Put him on.
00:46:48Natalie?
00:46:49Isn't this a little childish, even for you?
00:46:51Not really.
00:46:53I'm actually having fun.
00:46:55I swear it's like you're on the field again playing games.
00:47:02Natalie?
00:47:03Natalie!
00:47:04Hey!
00:47:21What?
00:47:27What?
00:47:30Where am I?
00:47:32What happened?
00:47:35Hey, hey!
00:47:36You okay?
00:47:38Lay down, lay down.
00:47:41What happened?
00:47:43You were in a car accident, okay?
00:47:45And you have a concussion, and it's my fault.
00:47:48And I am sorry.
00:47:51I can't stay here, I have meetings.
00:47:53No, hey, hey!
00:47:55Don't worry about your meetings, okay?
00:47:57I will handle it.
00:47:58I promise.
00:47:59And when this is over, we will start that business.
00:48:03Together.
00:48:04Alright?
00:48:05No more games for me.
00:48:08And you know what?
00:48:10You, you get some rest.
00:48:12Okay?
00:48:13And I'm going to go get you some food.
00:48:16Alright?
00:48:21Bye.
00:48:39Hi, baby.
00:48:51I had a really bad dream.
00:48:54You did?
00:48:55Auntie Evie said you went out of town, and I had a dream that you got in an accident,
00:49:01and you got really hurt.
00:49:05Baby, it was just a dream.
00:49:07Mommy, where are you?
00:49:09I'm at a convention for work.
00:49:11I'll be home soon, okay?
00:49:17You're always the first one to cave.
00:49:19You made peace with Natalie back in the day, and now here you are doing the same thing.
00:49:25Even though you're her client.
00:49:28Some things never change, I guess.
00:49:36Mommy, you know I love you very, very much.
00:49:39Did I just hear somebody say mommy?
00:49:50I'm sorry, I just, I need to ask you this.
00:49:52Did I just hear somebody say mommy?
00:49:56No, just a random thing I found on the internet.
00:50:00It's nothing.
00:50:04Okay.
00:50:06I brought you some food.
00:50:09I'm going to go get you some food.
00:50:11Okay.
00:50:12I'm going to go get you some food.
00:50:14Okay.
00:50:15I'm going to go get you some food.
00:50:17Okay.
00:50:18I brought you some food.
00:50:20Just because I figure the food they serve here is probably not great.
00:50:28It's not just any food.
00:50:30You went all the way to your favorite restaurant that you guys loved so much in college.
00:50:36Don't you have a meeting you have to get to?
00:50:39I know what I'm not wanting.
00:50:41Natalie, see you later.
00:50:49You can stop pretending.
00:50:51I'm not your responsibility.
00:50:53Hey.
00:50:56I am the reason you got into that car accident.
00:50:59Okay, so yes, you are my responsibility.
00:51:09What are you doing?
00:51:19Well, you dropped this in my car.
00:51:22So when I found it broken, I went and got it fixed for you.
00:51:31You're welcome.
00:51:39You should go.
00:51:43Okay.
00:51:49It's almost as if...
00:51:51No.
00:51:52Of course you don't still see me in that way.
00:51:55Not after seven years.
00:52:10That bitch again?
00:52:12What was Carl doing here?
00:52:18Do you want some?
00:52:19Yes, please.
00:52:20Oh, that's lovely.
00:52:21Thank you so much.
00:52:22Of course.
00:52:23You're welcome.
00:52:24Hi.
00:52:25Here.
00:52:29Jessica.
00:52:30I didn't know you'd be joining me and Mother for dinner.
00:52:33Surprise.
00:52:34I was the one who invited Jessica for dinner.
00:52:37I wanted to hear all about it.
00:52:39I didn't know you'd be joining me and Mother for dinner.
00:52:42Surprise.
00:52:43I was the one who invited Jessica for dinner.
00:52:46I wanted to hear all about her new job at the agency.
00:52:49Oh, it's great.
00:52:50Except my apartment is really far away from my new job.
00:52:53Well, where is your office?
00:52:55It's actually really close to here.
00:52:57Well, you should just move into the empty apartment below Carl's penthouse.
00:53:02He owns the entire building.
00:53:04All he has to do is say yes and it's yours.
00:53:13I'll be right back.
00:53:17You know, I think it's time I take you back to your place, Mother.
00:53:27I was at the hospital today and I saw you visiting that witch.
00:53:31Why are you still tangled up in that married woman's mess?
00:53:35Didn't you hear anything I told you?
00:53:38I am the reason that she got into that car accident in the first place.
00:53:41So it makes it my responsibility to take care of her.
00:53:45And another thing, she actually doesn't have any kids and she's not married.
00:53:50I don't care.
00:53:52As long as I'm still alive, there's no way in hell I'm going to let her sink her claws back into you.
00:54:07There is absolutely no way that I will go back to Natalie.
00:54:11And I will go back to Natalie.
00:54:13Not after what happened with Joanna.
00:54:15Okay?
00:54:16Jessica was telling me about some luxury jewelry exhibition happening tomorrow.
00:54:22We should go with her and buy her some lovely gifts.
00:54:33Natalie!
00:54:35You are the star of the company right now.
00:54:38Mr. Hayes just signed an exclusive three year deal.
00:54:43Cha-ching!
00:54:45That one contract alone is going to keep us afloat for ages.
00:54:49Good job. Good job.
00:54:51That's good to hear.
00:54:53You get out of here tomorrow, right?
00:54:56You should check out the jewelry exposition downtown with me tomorrow.
00:55:01Buy yourself something nice.
00:55:05You certainly deserve it.
00:55:08Sure. I'll be there.
00:55:10Alright. See you tomorrow, superstar.
00:55:13Go better.
00:55:28Natalie!
00:55:30Look.
00:55:33It's Carl Hayes and Jessica Houston.
00:55:36Have you seen the tabloids?
00:55:38No. What about them?
00:55:40They're getting married next year.
00:55:52They're getting married next year.
00:55:54You and Carl seem to be on good terms, right?
00:55:56Maybe you should try and land the prenup.
00:56:00I gotta say hi.
00:56:03Of course he's engaged again.
00:56:06It's not like he was actually going to wait for you.
00:56:21Excuse me. How much is this?
00:56:23Oh, that is $200,000.
00:56:27That is steep.
00:56:30Wrap it up for the lady.
00:56:32Put it on my tab.
00:56:34Carl, no. I can't accept that.
00:56:36It's too much.
00:56:38Well, you like it, don't you?
00:56:40Just because I like something doesn't mean I think I should own it.
00:56:43Here's a rule that I live by.
00:56:45If I like something, I get it.
00:56:48No matter what.
00:57:00Exactly.
00:57:02You know, $200,000 is nothing to Carl.
00:57:05Like this ring here.
00:57:07It's $2 million.
00:57:11Your mom got that for you.
00:57:13Not me.
00:57:20So, is it a boy or a girl?
00:57:25You must be kidding me.
00:57:28You must have misunderstood.
00:57:30I don't have any children.
00:57:32Oh.
00:57:36Why did you think that she had a child?
00:57:38Oh, because that size chain is usually for kids.
00:57:50I need you to find everything you can on Natalie Collins right now.
00:57:58Okay.
00:58:09If Carl finds out that little Brett is his, he'll go back to Natalie.
00:58:14I can't let that happen.
00:58:21Natalie Collins almost drowned at 16 and can't swim?
00:58:28No.
00:58:36Stay the hell away from my man.
00:58:57Carl!
00:59:01Natalie!
00:59:19Did you see that?
00:59:21Mr. Hayes didn't save his fiance.
00:59:24Who is this other woman?
00:59:26She seems very important to him.
00:59:28He really went all out for her?
00:59:30Okay.
00:59:50Look at me.
00:59:52Hey.
00:59:53Hey, lay down.
00:59:57I can't lose you.
00:59:59Hey.
01:00:00Hey, it's okay. Don't worry.
01:00:02I know you would have gotten to me if I were closer to you.
01:00:06Cut it out.
01:00:08All right?
01:00:09I'll let what you did to Natalie this time slide.
01:00:12If you do this again, you're gonna regret it.
01:00:27Thank you again for saving me.
01:00:30Listen, no matter what happens between us, I will always be there to protect you.
01:00:37Good night.
01:00:56Good night.
01:01:14We shouldn't.
01:01:16Invite me inside.
01:01:18I...
01:01:19Come on.
01:01:20No.
01:01:22Was that from your time?
01:01:26Okay, I wouldn't be here if it was not.
01:01:31I never did get to say thank you for saving me that day.
01:01:35Well, you can thank me by letting me inside so we can continue this conversation.
01:01:41I really can't.
01:01:44What are you hiding from me?
01:01:50Mommy, is that you?
01:01:55I'm sorry, did I just hear somebody inside say mommy?
01:02:08No, it was just Alexa.
01:02:10Sometimes she says random things when it hears voices.
01:02:14Anyway, good night.
01:02:19All right.
01:02:21Good night.
01:02:25Good night.
01:02:31Honey, what are you doing out of bed?
01:02:33Mommy, who are you talking to?
01:02:36Nobody.
01:02:38Why don't you go back to bed? I'll tuck you in.
01:02:40Okay.
01:02:48Why do you keep rescuing that tramp?
01:02:52So Jessica told you what happened.
01:02:54That jealous little fool is holding on to you because she knows you've moved on to Jessica.
01:03:00Can't you see that?
01:03:02Mother, please stay out of my affairs.
01:03:05You've left me with no choice.
01:03:23Didn't I tell you to stay the hell away from my son?
01:03:27Odelia, Carl and Jessica are engaged and in love.
01:03:32You've done enough damage to my family.
01:03:36Look, you've got it all wrong.
01:03:38Carl didn't feel anything for you after the stabbing, just like he feels nothing now.
01:03:43We're just business partners.
01:03:45If I find out you're lying, I'll make a call to my friends at the DA's office.
01:03:51I'm sure they can dig up more charges on your brother.
01:04:07Carl sent me.
01:04:09Clearly, he thought you needed the business. Yikes.
01:04:13What can I help you with, Jessica?
01:04:15We need you to draft a prenup.
01:04:18I can't believe him. Asking me to draft up their prenup?
01:04:22Is this his way of getting back at me?
01:04:33Odelia, Carl's been seeing Natalie every day.
01:04:37Should I just step aside and let them be together?
01:04:40Absolutely not.
01:04:42You're exactly the kind of girl I want my son to be with.
01:04:46I'll handle it.
01:04:50Joanna.
01:04:52No, no, Odelia, Odelia, that's not...
01:04:55That's not Joanna. Don't you remember?
01:04:57Joanna died because of that bitch Natalie.
01:05:00Are you okay? What's going on? Oh my god, are you...
01:05:04Help! Help! Somebody help!
01:05:07It's okay. You're gonna be okay.
01:05:17What the hell happened?
01:05:19Just rest, okay?
01:05:21She saw a girl that looked like Joanna and she just...
01:05:24She just ran after her, okay?
01:05:26You know, ever since Natalie returned,
01:05:29your mother's mental health has been getting worse.
01:05:32I think you should end things with her.
01:05:34You know, your mother wants me in your life now.
01:05:37Well, let me tell you something.
01:05:39Natalie is the one that I love.
01:05:42Well, let me tell you something.
01:05:44Natalie is the one that I love.
01:05:46So I think you should stay out of it
01:05:48because you're the one that's turning my mother away from her.
01:05:52Out of all the women in the world, she's still the one you choose?
01:05:56She killed your sister!
01:05:58Or did you forget that?
01:06:00Okay, Mother. You all right? Let's calm down.
01:06:03Why should I?
01:06:05My son has lost his mind over some slut!
01:06:10Okay, Mother.
01:06:12All right. Look at me. Relax.
01:06:15Get out. Because you can't have both of us.
01:06:18It's either me or her.
01:06:21Okay, hey. Relax.
01:06:24All right, yeah, Joanna is gone, but I'm still with Natalie.
01:06:26Nothing has changed.
01:06:28If it wasn't for her, you could have saved your sister.
01:06:32Yeah? Well, you know what?
01:06:34Joanna fell in with the wrong crowd.
01:06:36You and I did nothing to stop her.
01:06:38Part of that was Natalie.
01:06:40We failed Joanna, not Natalie.
01:06:42How dare you?
01:06:43And you know what?
01:06:44I have spent the last seven years protecting my happiness for you.
01:06:48Not anymore.
01:06:49You can contact me when you're ready to accept Natalie.
01:07:08Okay.
01:07:39Hi.
01:07:41Hi.
01:07:42What are you? What do you want?
01:07:44Hey, listen.
01:07:46I will never give up on you, okay?
01:07:49On me and you ever.
01:07:52I promise, no matter what.
01:07:56Okay.
01:07:59There we go.
01:08:00Remind me of your assistant's name.
01:08:05You can be his problem.
01:08:07Okay.
01:08:11No.
01:08:12What do you want from me?
01:08:15My fiancé.
01:08:24Tell your fiancé I'm not interested in your guys' prenup, okay?
01:08:38What prenup?
01:08:40The one Jessica said you wanted.
01:08:42Who said I wanted a prenup with her?
01:08:47Don't do this.
01:08:59Hey.
01:09:01There's never been anyone that I've ever thought about.
01:09:06You're the only one.
01:09:08Just one more night.
01:09:29Patrick's about to wake up.
01:09:31He can't see Carl in my bed.
01:09:36Wake up.
01:09:37Wake up.
01:09:38Wake up.
01:09:39Wake up.
01:09:40Wake up.
01:09:41Wake up.
01:09:42Wake up.
01:09:43Wake up.
01:09:44Wake up.
01:09:45Wake up.
01:09:46Why? What's wrong?
01:09:47Shh.
01:09:48Come on.
01:09:55For what?
01:09:57Get up.
01:09:58Why?
01:10:00Where do I have to go?
01:10:03Come on.
01:10:04Please.
01:10:07Okay.
01:10:08I don't know why I have to leave.
01:10:10It's not like we're having an affair.
01:10:12I'm sorry.
01:10:30Mommy, I dreamed that you were talking to someone again.
01:10:36What?
01:10:38No.
01:10:40It was the delivery man.
01:10:44One of Mommy's friends got you a late birthday present.
01:10:55What does this pattern mean?
01:10:58Well, this right here...
01:11:01It's a Möbius strip.
01:11:03It's when two people who start off in the same place go around alone.
01:11:10And then end up together again at the beginning.
01:11:30What?
01:11:47Are you crazy?
01:11:53I'm just going after what I want.
01:11:56Where are your gifts?
01:11:58Hmm?
01:12:01Let me tell you something.
01:12:03I handpicked every single one of those gifts for you.
01:12:07You were drunk last night, Carl. It doesn't mean anything.
01:12:10Yes, it does.
01:12:11How is it? Living with Jessica, by the way?
01:12:14Who told you that?
01:12:15Because we are not living together.
01:12:28I promise you.
01:12:29Absolutely no one will stop you from living together.
01:12:35And she will come around.
01:12:38I promise.
01:12:40Once you settle things with Odelia, I'll finally tell you what I've been keeping from you.
01:12:58We failed Joanna, not Natalie.
01:13:00How dare you?
01:13:01And you know what?
01:13:02I have spent the last seven years protecting my happiness for you.
01:13:07Not anymore.
01:13:08Baby.
01:13:11If only I'd paid more attention to you back then.
01:13:14Maybe you'd still be here.
01:13:28I love you.
01:13:42It's okay, Mom.
01:13:45She understands.
01:13:47I'm so sorry.
01:13:49I've been such a terrible mother.
01:13:52I've caused you so much pain.
01:13:58I'm sorry.
01:14:04Mom, all of this is in the past.
01:14:08And Joanna would not want you to live the rest of your life in regret.
01:14:18Hey, Carl.
01:14:20My mom wants to apologize. She invited us to dinner, so just let me know when you're off work.
01:14:24Really? Odelia's ready to accept us?
01:14:41Carl belongs to me.
01:14:44It's time to do what I should have done a long time ago.
01:14:55I'm sorry.
01:15:08Mommy, no, wait!
01:15:11Mommy.
01:15:16Who are you?
01:15:18What do you want?
01:15:19If it's money, I can pay.
01:15:22She doesn't want your money.
01:15:24She wants you and your kid out of the way.
01:15:29I'll tell you in the morning.
01:15:31So you can die knowing who did this to you.
01:15:36Your call has been forwarded to an automatic voice message system.
01:15:44Hey.
01:15:46Listen, I've been expecting Natalie for over an hour now.
01:15:49Did she leave work?
01:15:51She did leave the office, but that was a few hours ago.
01:16:09Henry, hey, listen, Natalie is missing.
01:16:11I'm going to need you to make some calls.
01:16:13Also, I'm going to need the surveillance footage from her office from the last few hours.
01:16:17Can you do that?
01:16:19Yeah, I'm going to need to know exactly where Natalie is at.
01:16:31Yeah.
01:16:32Boss, no one's seen Natalie.
01:16:34All the office surveillance footage for the last few hours has been wiped clean.
01:16:45Yes, hello, Police Chief Garcia.
01:16:47Listen, this is Carl Hayes.
01:16:48I'm going to need a big favor from you, and I'm going to need it right now.
01:17:18That's the necklace I gave Natalie.
01:17:22Patrick is my son?
01:17:36What?
01:17:37What?
01:17:38What?
01:17:39What?
01:17:40What?
01:17:41What?
01:17:42What?
01:17:43What?
01:17:44What?
01:17:45What?
01:17:46What?
01:17:47Where the hell did that come from, kid?
01:17:53All right, let's deal with you first, shall we?
01:17:59Let go of me!
01:18:00You have no right!
01:18:01Actually, we traced a recent $100,000 payment from you to the kidnapper here.
01:18:06You said no one was going to notice that she's gone.
01:18:09Now the whole city's hunting for us!
01:18:11Odelia, please, this is all just a big misunderstanding, okay?
01:18:15I don't even know the man!
01:18:16Get her out of my sight!
01:18:18Yes, ma'am.
01:18:19Let's go, missy.
01:18:20No!
01:18:21No, please!
01:18:22It wasn't me!
01:18:37Daddy, I knew you would come to save us.
01:18:41He looks just like Carl when Carl was his age.
01:18:49He's really my son, isn't he?
01:19:04I was going to tell you the day you proposed.
01:19:11Mommy, Daddy, we're finally family now.
01:19:17I'm so sorry for everything I put you through over the years.
01:19:21Natalie, please accept these gifts.
01:19:25A title deed.
01:19:27A house.
01:19:28A car.
01:19:29A car.
01:19:30A car.
01:19:31A car.
01:19:32A car.
01:19:33A car.
01:19:34A car.
01:19:35A car.
01:19:36A car.
01:19:37A car.
01:19:38A car.
01:19:39A car.
01:19:40A car.
01:19:41A car.
01:19:42A car.
01:19:43A car.
01:19:44A car.
01:19:45A title deed to two villas, a Maserati key, and some custom jewelry.
01:19:52Odelia, you didn't have to do all this.
01:19:55I can't believe I left you to raise Patrick alone for seven years.
01:20:03It was me.
01:20:05I was the one who drove Natalie away.
01:20:08Mom, what are you saying?
01:20:09When you were in the hospital after the stabbing, I told her that you didn't want to see her again.
01:20:16I thought you hated me.
01:20:28I thought you hated me.
01:20:31And I thought that you abandoned me and never wanted to see me again.
01:20:37I'll never come between the two of you again.
01:20:41I forgive you.
01:20:43As a mother, I can only imagine how the death of Joanna affected you.
01:20:53These are for you.
01:20:55I hope you like them.
01:20:57Thanks, Grandma.
01:20:59From now on, you'll have everything you could ever want and all the love in the world.
01:21:30I love you.
01:21:32I love you.
01:21:34I love you.
01:21:36I love you.
01:21:38I love you.
01:21:40I love you.
01:21:59Natalie?
01:22:05Where are they?
01:22:11What's going on?
01:22:14You'll see.
01:22:25Natalie, my love.
01:22:30This wedding has been a long time coming.
01:22:37Mommy!
01:22:43Can I get this?
01:23:00A loveless ring.
01:23:02Just like you always want to.
01:23:06Julie, beloved, we are gathered in this beautiful setting to celebrate a union of two souls.
01:23:17They have endured great hardship, but their love has survived.
01:23:25Better late than never.
01:23:26And from now on, it's you and me, always and forever.
