00:00:00Bella?
00:00:01Bella?
00:00:02Where did she go?
00:00:03The gardener says Miss Bella's not on the grounds.
00:00:04She's disappeared again.
00:00:05We'll tell the design team to go big or go home.
00:00:06We're not building some quaint bed and breakfast.
00:00:07This is a billion-dollar, far-low resort on a private island off the coast of New York.
00:00:08We're going to build a house.

00:01:05We're going to build a house.
00:01:06Okay, everyone.
00:01:07Let's get back to it.
00:01:08These decorations aren't going to put themselves up.
00:01:10Miss Delaney, I'm sorry.
00:01:11I will be hiring a new nanny soon.
00:01:13Well, how long do you think this is going to last?
00:01:15She's scared all three in a year.
00:01:19I don't want a nanny.
00:01:20I want a mommy.
00:01:21I want a mommy.
00:01:34You see, it's a circus out there.
00:01:35Like a literal freaking circus.
00:01:37Oh, my God.
00:01:38There's jugglers.
00:01:39There's clowns.
00:01:40There's even a man on stilts.
00:01:41Can you imagine having a birthday like this
00:01:42when you were just eight years old?
00:01:43Foster, I used to blow out imaginary candles
00:01:45and dream of real cake.
00:01:51This is my favorite part.
00:01:54Somebody's a little too in touch with their inner child.
00:01:59When your mother proposed this blind date,
00:02:01I was a little hesitant.
00:02:03I just couldn't believe that Annie Amp
00:02:06could live up to the image that she painted.
00:02:08Yes, she's very good at talking you up.
00:02:10In your case, she really didn't do you justice.
00:02:15I'd love to slip away from the crowd
00:02:16and get to know you better.
00:02:19You're at my eight-year-old's birthday party.
00:02:20I wasn't interested before, but now I want you to leave.
00:02:28Wait for it.
00:02:32Why, hello, Mother.
00:02:33Julian, Bianca is hysterical,
00:02:36and you have embarrassed me.
00:02:38Well, stop setting me up with random women.
00:02:40I'm not getting married again.
00:02:41Once was enough.
00:02:42Kendra and the race car driver have ended it.
00:02:45Right now, you have sole custody of Bella.
00:02:48Let the courts favor the mother, Julian.
00:02:50You and I both know
00:02:51Kendra could show up at any time
00:02:53and demand that Bella live with her
00:02:55just to spite you.
00:02:57I'm not letting that witch anywhere near my daughter.
00:03:00Find yourself a wife
00:03:02and show the world a stable family.
00:03:04Not for your own happiness,
00:03:05but for your child's.
00:03:12Mother might be dramatic,
00:03:13but she's right about Bella needing a mom.
00:03:17Perhaps a fake wife would do.
00:03:21Got vanilla for you.
00:03:24What's your favorite flavor?
00:03:26Chocolate?
00:03:27So, do you want to know what makes everything taste so good?
00:03:32The secret ingredient is...
00:03:37love.
00:03:47Oh, I'm so exhausted.
00:03:48I'm heading home. You coming?
00:03:49Melissa and Percy engagement cake for tomorrow.
00:03:51Okay.
00:03:54Hey, Bernie.
00:03:55Let me grab you the day oats.
00:04:04Tell Rose and Pete
00:04:05I included the pecan cinnamon rolls just for them.
00:04:17Oh, my gosh.
00:04:19You scared me.
00:04:20Where did you come from, sweetheart?
00:04:22Where are your parents?
00:04:24Are you lost?
00:04:27What's your name?
00:04:28I'm Everly.
00:04:30And you don't want to tell me, huh?
00:04:34Guess I'll just have to guess.
00:04:36Your name is Olga.
00:04:40Gertrude.
00:04:41Ew.
00:04:43Prudence.
00:04:44Hazel.
00:04:45Constance.
00:04:46Phyllis.
00:04:47Henrietta?
00:04:50Bertha.
00:04:51It's Bella.
00:04:54Shh.
00:04:55The birthday girl.
00:04:56She has to stow away in the truck.
00:04:57Bella!
00:05:04You scared me, Bella Barlow.
00:05:07Sorry, Daddy.
00:05:09What were you thinking?
00:05:10I found my mommy.
00:05:16I'm so sorry.
00:05:17She's never done anything like this.
00:05:19I want Everly to be my mommy.
00:05:21Bella Munchkin, please.
00:05:24You know, my daddy has lots of money.
00:05:27All you have to do is marry him and be my mommy.
00:05:30Bella, you don't marry someone for money.
00:05:33You do it because you love them so much.
00:05:36And it feels like they're a part of you.
00:05:39Like you can't picture your life without them in it.
00:05:43I know you're supposed to be my mommy.
00:05:47I'm engaged to someone else.
00:05:50Come on, Bella.
00:05:52We've taken up enough of Miss Harper's time.
00:06:03So a hot guy and a cute little girl were like, come be my insta-family?
00:06:06The little girl was.
00:06:07The dad was kind of mortified.
00:06:09Bella reminds me of what I was like after the car accident.
00:06:12Kept going up to perfect strangers, looking for my parents.
00:06:15Just couldn't accept that they were gone.
00:06:22Hey, beautiful. I miss you already.
00:06:24When are you back from your business trip?
00:06:26I'm back Monday. We'll see each other then.
00:06:29Are you calling me from the bathroom?
00:06:31No, the guests next door are just really loud.
00:06:35I gotta go. I love you.
00:06:43Hello, Earth Everly.
00:06:45What?
00:06:46I was just thinking about what I told the little girl.
00:06:48All the reasons you marry someone.
00:06:50But I've never actually felt any of those things.
00:06:53Well, you better decide sooner rather than later.
00:06:55Well, Nolan and I have been together since high school.
00:06:58Loyalty counts for something.
00:07:00At least what we have is real.
00:07:08Okay, this hotel is huge.
00:07:10Where is the engagement party being held?
00:07:12Uh, restaurant.
00:07:14There it is.
00:07:19I'm bored.
00:07:20I'm sorry, Munchkin, but after yesterday, I'm not letting you out of my sight.
00:07:24Bella was bad.
00:07:25Bella was very bad.
00:07:27But I'll take you to get ice cream if you're very good.
00:07:32I want cupcake.
00:07:34Nice try, kiddo.
00:07:40Okay.
00:07:56That must be the bride-to-be.
00:07:58Hey, delivery for the lovely bride.
00:08:00Can I just get your signature on this really quick?
00:08:07Oh, my gosh.
00:08:09Everly.
00:08:11Well, you haven't changed a bit since high school, huh?
00:08:15Still a pathetic orphan with no money?
00:08:18Or taste.
00:08:20Olivia, is this your engagement party?
00:08:23Who would marry a raging bully like you?
00:08:26Everly, what are you doing here?
00:08:32Nolan, I...
00:08:34I don't understand.
00:08:36Obvious, you ignorant nobody.
00:08:40Nolan's been cheating on you.
00:08:43With me.
00:08:50Is it true, Nolan?
00:08:53I can explain.
00:08:54No, is it true?
00:08:56You've been sleeping with Olivia?
00:08:59You saw how she treated me.
00:09:01She made my high school life a living hell.
00:09:03You hate her just as much as I do.
00:09:06Well, if that's hate sex,
00:09:08then sign me up for a lifetime of it.
00:09:12Nolan's a sexy beast, aren't you, darling?
00:09:15But you wouldn't know about that, Everly.
00:09:18Being the pity fuck that you are.
00:09:21You set this whole thing up, didn't you, Olivia?
00:09:24Did you think you could date both of us?
00:09:26Marry both of us?
00:09:29No.
00:09:30Nolan, you have to choose.
00:09:33You can be with me and live the good life,
00:09:35or you can be with this dirty orphan
00:09:40who will always be poor,
00:09:42pathetic white trash her entire life,
00:09:46and who will drag you down with her.
00:09:52I'm sorry.
00:09:54I'm sorry, Everly. I just... I can't be poor.
00:09:57I can't.
00:09:59I'm so sorry.
00:10:03I'm sorry.
00:10:09This isn't happening.
00:10:11I'm in some kind of post-high school nightmare
00:10:13where the mean girl still wins.
00:10:19I don't like her. She's mean.
00:10:21Hello, where did you come from?
00:10:24Is she an evil witch?
00:10:26You little shit.
00:10:27Who the hell let this wretched brat in here?
00:10:29Hey, watch your mouth, Olivia.
00:10:31You can't talk to her like that.
00:10:34I can say whatever the hell I want.
00:10:37Both of you, get out.
00:10:40And take this disgusting paper with you.
00:10:42It's garbage, just like you.
00:10:48What are you, crazy? You could have hurt her.
00:10:50Too bad I missed.
00:10:54Oh, my goodness.
00:10:56Get off me.
00:10:59Ah!
00:11:00Choke on it, bitch.
00:11:06I'm gonna destroy you.
00:11:08Good luck with that.
00:11:10You already tried in high school, but I'm stronger now.
00:11:13Keep it all in with my blessing.
00:11:15Nolan, do something.
00:11:18Everly?
00:11:20You can't get off her.
00:11:23Hey.
00:11:27Touch my kid and you're dead.
00:11:28Who the hell are you?
00:11:30I'm with her.
00:11:31Since when?
00:11:32That's none of your business.
00:11:36Ooh, hold still.
00:11:38There's some frost in there.
00:11:41Please, just stop. Don't.
00:11:44It's Julian Barlow, heir of Barlow Hotels and Resorts.
00:11:48He owns this very hotel.
00:11:50You're lucky I don't sue you both for attempting to assault a minor.
00:11:53I didn't know it was your kid.
00:11:55So if she's a poor girl, hurting her is okay?
00:11:57This party's over. You two are banned for life from every Barlow property in the world.
00:12:04So this is what having someone stand up for you feels like?
00:12:11You were bad, Daddy.
00:12:13There's a lot of bad people out there. That's why you can't run off the way you did.
00:12:17But I thought I'd really want to be with her.
00:12:21You need some rest.
00:12:23Go to the car.
00:12:25I love you, Edwin.
00:12:32Thank you for protecting my daughter.
00:12:34Thank you for saving me from my cheating ex-fiancé.
00:12:42That sounds like a desperate man trying to win you back.
00:12:45Yeah.
00:12:47Not happening.
00:12:54Seems we have a problem, Miss Harper.
00:12:57My daughter's heart is set on you being her mother.
00:13:03You also have a problem with your ex not getting the message.
00:13:07I propose a pretend relationship.
00:13:10Like a fake marriage?
00:13:11Exactly.
00:13:12I can protect you from your ex-fiancé,
00:13:14and you can help me protect Bella from herself and my ex,
00:13:17if she comes back into town.
00:13:19Is your ex really that bad?
00:13:22Kendra makes your high school nemesis look like a teddy bear.
00:13:26Do we have a deal?
00:13:27What if you want to be with someone for real?
00:13:30I won't.
00:13:32I've sworn I'm not going to get married again.
00:13:42Yes, Mr. Barlow.
00:13:44You have a deal.
00:13:57Tomorrow night is the annual charity gala.
00:13:59Black tie.
00:14:00There, we'll introduce you to society.
00:14:03Well, why don't we start out slow?
00:14:07My mother will know if we don't show up as newlyweds.
00:14:09Didn't you say she lives in Paris?
00:14:12She has spies everywhere.
00:14:15Did you go to the gala with me?
00:14:18I don't know, Julian.
00:14:19I'm more flower than flair.
00:14:24We have a boutique at the hotel.
00:14:27I think the right dress will ease some of your stress.
00:14:31I'm still super uncomfortable with all this.
00:14:35I don't want to embarrass you at the gala.
00:14:37Are you always going to be this touchy about my money?
00:14:41Most women can't wait to spend it.
00:14:43I'm a baker, not a socialite.
00:14:46You've been hanging out with the wrong crowd.
00:14:51Maybe I have.
00:14:54Do you mind?
00:14:55My mother will want a picture of the newlyweds.
00:15:06Oh, one other thing.
00:15:09Don't fall for me.
00:15:12Same goes for you.
00:15:26Well, hello, mother.
00:15:28You're married?
00:15:29Who is this girl?
00:15:31Her name is Everly Harper.
00:15:33She's a sous chef.
00:15:34Cordon bleu trained, and she calls herself a baker.
00:15:37Ridiculous.
00:15:40Well, her parents died when she was six,
00:15:43and since then she's had no relatives.
00:15:46She became a ward of the state,
00:15:48and bounced around foster care,
00:15:51never really having a permanent home.
00:15:53So she's an orphan without social connections.
00:15:56What are her financials?
00:15:57Well, she has some student loan debt,
00:15:59and her business is barely making it.
00:16:02Despite that, she's won numerous awards
00:16:05and competitions for her.
00:16:08Oh my God, she's dirt poor!
00:16:11You've married a gold digger, Julian.
00:16:13Well, to be honest, my wealth is probably a bad thing in this case.
00:16:17She'd rather me be middle class.
00:16:19Well, then she's a fool.
00:16:21Who wouldn't want a billionaire husband?
00:16:23Well, Bella chose her to be her mother.
00:16:29Well, I'm just upset that my only son didn't inform me he was married.
00:16:32We'll be in touch.
00:16:36Well, that went exactly as expected.
00:16:41Yay! I'm really going to meet my new mommy!
00:16:44I should start calling you my little spy.
00:16:47When does she move in?
00:16:48Um, I'm not sure. We haven't had that discussion.
00:16:52And she's going to bake me more magical cookies filled with love.
00:16:56Has she done that before?
00:16:58Well, yes. Soon she'll be here,
00:17:01and she'll bake you many things full of love.
00:17:04Yay! Yay!
00:17:12Wait, you fake Marion, Julian, Barlow?
00:17:15I know, it's insane.
00:17:17Oh my God, you do know that your hubby is worth like a hundred billion dollars, right?
00:17:21Very funny.
00:17:23He did?
00:17:25I'm not joking.
00:17:26Whoa, I've never seen that many zeros in one spot.
00:17:29Oh my God, bestie!
00:17:32You're literally married to one of the richest dudes on the planet.
00:17:35Olivia and her totes are totally going to flip out.
00:17:37We have to go to the high school reunion next weekend.
00:17:39I thought you said we were skipping that.
00:17:40Uh-uh, uh-uh, not anymore.
00:17:42We are going.
00:17:44Oh, come on. Please, please, please.
00:17:47Think about it.
00:17:48Mommy!
00:17:50Why would someone like him even want a pretend marriage?
00:17:53I mean, he's charming, handsome, brilliant, and a good dad.
00:17:59Like, he could easily find a real wife.
00:18:01Maybe he's just avoiding commitment. You know, classic playboy move.
00:18:04He doesn't strike me as that type.
00:18:06Look at you, playing the little protective wife already.
00:18:10Shut up.
00:18:12So, when does Miss Barlow make her big debut?
00:18:15Tonight, actually.
00:18:18Care to help me find a dress for some exclusive gala?
00:18:21Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God.
00:18:23This is the most exclusive credit card of all credit cards.
00:18:26You can buy an island with this thing.
00:18:28I'm going to be sick.
00:18:29Oh my God, I have to find a way to give it back to him.
00:18:31Everly Harper, you will do no such thing.
00:18:34Can you please just be a little selfish for the both of us and live a little?
00:18:40You're right.
00:18:42Let's do this.
00:18:43Yay!
00:18:55Okay, I can't do this.
00:18:56$40,000 for a dress is insane.
00:18:58You could pay an entire village for that price.
00:19:00Yeah, crazy world we live in.
00:19:02Hello, ladies.
00:19:03My name is Pilar.
00:19:05Should we try something on?
00:19:07It appears to be your size, but I do have a seamstress on sandbox.
00:19:10Can I maybe rent it instead?
00:19:12Rent?
00:19:15That'll be $1,000 a day, plus a $4,000 security deposit.
00:19:20Can you afford that?
00:19:24Oh my goodness, what manual labor job do you do?
00:19:26I'm a baker.
00:19:29Absolutely no rental for you.
00:19:31Those rough worker hands will snag the delicate fabric.
00:19:35There's a thrift store down the way that might be more at your speed.
00:19:39You don't understand.
00:19:40I'm attending the annual Celestial Charity Gala tonight.
00:19:42It's strictly black tie.
00:19:43What are you doing at Celestial, the most exclusive event in town?
00:19:47I know.
00:19:49You must be a waitress handing out caravans.
00:19:51Just buy it then.
00:19:54This is a black heart.
00:19:58Obviously.
00:20:01Held up at boutique.
00:20:03Not going too well.
00:20:08Well, well, well.
00:20:09This card belongs to Mr. Barlow.
00:20:12How did it end up in your hands?
00:20:14Mr. Barlow happens to be my best friend's husband.
00:20:18As if.
00:20:19You must have stolen it.
00:20:21Security, arrest these scammers for identity theft and fraud.
00:20:25Get your hands off of her, you animal.
00:20:34We're not thieves.
00:20:35You're making a mistake.
00:20:36The card was given to me.
00:20:37We're innocent.
00:20:43Get this trash out of my face.
00:20:48Let them go.
00:20:52Let them go.
00:20:55Mr. Barlow, you're right on time.
00:20:57Okay, I just caught these scammers trying to charge $5,000 to your card.
00:21:01$5,000?
00:21:02When have you ever sold a dress under 30 grand?
00:21:04That was me.
00:21:06I was trying to rent it and said no dress is worth that much.
00:21:09Are you kidding me?
00:21:11Don't fall for this innocent act.
00:21:12She's a clever scammer.
00:21:14Did you see anything you liked?
00:21:16This one.
00:21:17But we were told to shop at the thrift shop.
00:21:20I'm Samantha, by the way.
00:21:21I've heard so much about you.
00:21:23Pleasure to meet you, Samantha.
00:21:25Flora, my wife was looking to outfit herself for tonight's gala entirely through your boutique.
00:21:31Unfortunately, you cut up our card.
00:21:36So she...
00:21:38She really is your...
00:21:41Wife?
00:21:42At Barlow, we believe in treating everyone with respect and dignity.
00:21:47Isn't your lease up in 30 days?
00:21:50Mr. Barlow, I am so, so sorry.
00:21:53Okay, Mrs. Barlow, please.
00:21:54Here.
00:21:55Take the dress.
00:21:56It's on the house.
00:21:57It's not necessary.
00:21:58Just bill my account.
00:22:02And Barlow won't renew your lease.
00:22:04Not here.
00:22:05Not anywhere.
00:22:07You're done, Flora.
00:22:09I'll make sure you never work in retail again.
00:22:21I realize right now, this is the first time I'm seeing the real Evelyn.
00:22:25You've been hiding in plain sight.
00:22:27You really enjoyed it.
00:22:28Look over here.
00:22:29Super plus one for the night.
00:22:30What's her name, man?
00:22:33I got you.
00:22:34What's her name?
00:22:38I got you.
00:22:39I got you.
00:22:40I got you.
00:22:41I got you.
00:22:42I got you.
00:22:43I got you.
00:22:44I got you.
00:22:45I got you.
00:22:46I got you.
00:22:47I got you.
00:22:48I got you.
00:22:49I got you.
00:22:59I feel like I don't fit in here.
00:23:02You don't fit in, Evelyn.
00:23:04You stand out.
00:23:05Don't be so obvious, Everly.
00:23:06You can't let yourself fall for him.
00:23:08It's true.
00:23:09Everyone here is rich.
00:23:10But they're all human.
00:23:12With flaws and all.
00:23:15That's Chase and Daisy Herrington.
00:23:17They're in banking.
00:23:18And I don't think you mean they work at the Teller window.
00:23:21Chase can often be found at the dog track.
00:23:23And Daisy's a lush.
00:23:25She's probably spiked her wine with vodka already.
00:23:27That's true, man.
00:23:28That's awful.
00:23:29And that's Lily Blake Dubois.
00:23:32And her second husband.
00:23:33He's 25 years her junior.
00:23:35Men date women who are younger than them all the time.
00:23:38She was the PTA president.
00:23:39And he was in ninth grade.
00:23:41With her son when they met.
00:23:43When they started their affair.
00:23:44Oh my god.
00:23:45Okay, stop.
00:23:46I get it.
00:23:47You're no longer intimidated by anyone in here.
00:23:50Mission accomplished.
00:23:52Mind if I join you, lovebirds?
00:23:56Mind if I join you, lovebirds?
00:24:01I'm too old for surprises, mother.
00:24:03You flew from Paris for nothing.
00:24:05Nothing?
00:24:07You're making a fool of yourself with this gold digger.
00:24:10Miss Barlow, let's get two things straight.
00:24:13One, my name is Everly Harper.
00:24:15And two, I am not a gold digger.
00:24:18I've earned my keep since I was six years old.
00:24:21And I started my business from scratch.
00:24:23I don't need your money.
00:24:25But I would like your respect.
00:24:27So, I won't let anyone talk down to me.
00:24:30Even if you are Julian's mother.
00:24:32Impudent girl.
00:24:33Meddling mother.
00:24:37Aren't you going to say anything?
00:24:39Meddling mother?
00:24:41I couldn't have put it better myself.
00:24:45I don't know what you did to trick my son into marriage.
00:24:48But I have my eye on you, Everly Harper.
00:24:51One false move, and you are through.
00:24:54Alright, that's enough.
00:24:56Enjoy your evening alone, mother.
00:25:08Everly, I want to apologize.
00:25:11My mother was out of line.
00:25:13She didn't expect it either.
00:25:15But I'm determined she won't back down.
00:25:18We need to make sure she doesn't start digging into the details of our marriage.
00:25:22So, what's our next steps?
00:25:25I want you to move in with me.
00:25:29It was going to happen sooner or later.
00:25:32Mother just expedited it.
00:25:34That goes to the kitchen.
00:25:37Living room.
00:25:38Living room.
00:25:40It's just all moving a little too fast.
00:25:41I mean, one minute, Julian's asking me to move in with him.
00:25:44And the next, movers are packing my stuff.
00:25:46But you gotta love a man that takes action.
00:25:48You know?
00:25:49You are oddly chipper about all this.
00:25:51I mean, here I was feeling bad about leaving you to find a new roommate.
00:25:53I don't know.
00:25:54I think I'm going to try living alone for a while.
00:25:56Samantha, how can you afford that?
00:25:58The new landlord lowered everyone's rent.
00:26:00Since when?
00:26:02Since you became his fake bride.
00:26:04He knew that you felt bad for me.
00:26:06And so he bought the entire apartment complex and lowered everyone's rent.
00:26:09That's...
00:26:11That's...
00:26:13Fantastic.
00:26:15Emily, billionaires don't think like normal people, sweetie.
00:26:17This is your life now.
00:26:19You need to get used to it, okay?
00:26:26Are we going to have gazpacho for dinner?
00:26:28If it pleases Miss Bella to have gazpacho.
00:26:31Hello.
00:26:33Okay, what can I get you today?
00:26:36You're welcome.
00:26:41It shouldn't take me longer than two days to inspect the site in Indonesia.
00:26:47Are you sure you can watch Bella?
00:26:49I haven't hired an Annie yet, and she tires Miss Delaney out.
00:26:53Don't worry about us.
00:26:54You focus on work.
00:26:55Bella and I will be just fine.
00:26:56I'll take you to the bakery with me, so have a blast.
00:26:59Here's a detailed list of her routines, do's and don'ts, allergies, emergency contact information,
00:27:06all the information you'll ever need.
00:27:08Bella loves soccer, allergic to strawberries, doctor's number.
00:27:12I'm impressed.
00:27:13I wouldn't have thought a CEO like you would be this hands-on with this kid.
00:27:17We thought wrong.
00:27:19Bella means the world to me.
00:27:31Daddy, why are you staring at everyone like that?
00:27:35Do you like her?
00:27:37Sorry, she doesn't know what she's talking about.
00:27:39Sometimes kids have a way of knowing the truth.
00:27:42They also have a way of being annoying.
00:27:44Well, anyways, me and Bun Bun wanted to play airplane.
00:27:48All right, Munchkin, you have one minute.
00:27:51Yippee!
00:27:53Ready?
00:27:54Yeah!
00:28:00So this is what a happy family looks like.
00:28:02It looks so nice.
00:28:05I wonder if we could be a real family someday.
00:28:07Just the three of us.
00:28:13Okay, Chef, what's on the menu today?
00:28:15Um, chocolate cupcakes and chocolate donuts and chocolate cake.
00:28:22Oh, and chocolate chip cookies.
00:28:24I'm sensing a chocolate thing.
00:28:26Okay, time to get to work, Chef.
00:28:28Yippee, Chef!
00:28:30Ooh!
00:28:32Ta-da!
00:28:34What do you think, Chef?
00:28:36Mm.
00:28:38I can taste the love.
00:28:40What?
00:28:41The magic ingredient.
00:28:43I can taste it.
00:28:44That's good.
00:28:46Um, Evelyn?
00:28:48Hmm?
00:28:49Do you like my dad?
00:28:51Of course I like him.
00:28:53He's a great guy and a good dad.
00:28:55So you could become my mommy for real?
00:28:59Bella, I don't know what the future holds,
00:29:03but I know you have a very special place in my heart, okay?
00:29:07Okay.
00:29:12Whoa, that was fast.
00:29:15Okay, time for rest.
00:29:20Daddy!
00:29:29Oh, my God, I was falling for him.
00:29:34Daddy!
00:29:36Oh, did you miss me, Munchkin?
00:29:38So much, but Everly's the best.
00:29:40I got to be a chef.
00:29:42And we had a movie marathon.
00:29:44And I got to sleep in sheep tents in the living room.
00:29:47And we ate in the kitchen with Mrs. Delaney,
00:29:50who was all frowny, but then she was all smiley.
00:29:53I like the kitchen better than the dining room.
00:29:55Can we eat there from now on?
00:29:57I see you've made some changes.
00:29:59Very minor ones.
00:30:01Oops, did I say something bad?
00:30:03No, Munchkin, Daddy's just learning.
00:30:05He's a little set in his ways.
00:30:07You can do everything, Dad, but you're a bad cook.
00:30:09And Everly's way better at girl stuff.
00:30:11You're like the prince, and Everly's the princess.
00:30:13And we can all live happily ever after.
00:30:16With one another, of course.
00:30:22Kids and their fairy tales.
00:30:25She'll understand that we can't be more than a pretend couple when she's older.
00:30:29Of course. She's still too little.
00:30:31We can't be more than a pretend couple.
00:30:34Right. It felt so real.
00:30:36I let myself forget it was a fake marriage.
00:30:39It can never be anything more.
00:30:48Oh my God, you have to go.
00:30:50Oh, come on. Olivia and Nolan are gonna gossip about us if you do not show your face.
00:30:54They're going to do that regardless.
00:30:56Sorry, Sammy, I thought about it, and I don't want to go to our high school reunion.
00:30:59Okay, hear me out. Just picture this.
00:31:01You walk in with your new, hot, billionaire husband.
00:31:04It's the perfect revenge for the mean girls that used to call us poor losers.
00:31:07I would never use Julian in that way.
00:31:10Well, if the thing is, I already told them that you would be there with him.
00:31:14Okay, don't get upset. Don't get upset.
00:31:16It's just that Olivia posted that we were lying skinks.
00:31:18And then I kind of just blew it from there.
00:31:20And then all of a sudden...
00:31:21Samantha, you make everything ten times worse.
00:31:24I'll go with you.
00:31:25I can't let my wife be humiliated.
00:31:27I came by to take you to dinner as a thank you for helping me with Bella.
00:31:32Did he really mean that? His wife?
00:31:35You should take the day off tomorrow and go pamper yourself.
00:31:38I'll make the arrangements with the hotel spa.
00:31:40On one condition. Can you make the reservation for two?
00:31:45I can do that.
00:31:54I want to get my nails done, too.
00:31:55What color do you want to get, Bella?
00:31:57The exact same as you.
00:31:58I also want to get some for Bun Bun.
00:32:00He looks great with those.
00:32:02You're so adorable.
00:32:04How could any mother abandon you?
00:32:07I wish you were really mine.
00:32:14Oh, my.
00:32:15Mr. Barlow said that you might need some help getting into it.
00:32:20I can't wear that, Miss Delaney.
00:32:22It's too beautiful and definitely way too expensive.
00:32:24Nonsense, dear.
00:32:26Mr. Barlow said to tell you, you're the only one that can do it justice.
00:32:34Now, let's see it on you.
00:32:43I want to thank you for the dress.
00:32:45I'll find a way to pay you back.
00:32:47Seeing you in it is payment enough.
00:32:50You are drop dead gorgeous, Everly.
00:32:53It's not me. It's the dress.
00:32:55Why do you do that?
00:32:57Why do you downplay your beauty?
00:32:59I don't like to draw attention to myself.
00:33:02You shouldn't have to dim your light to make others feel good about themselves.
00:33:06Mr. Barlow, sir.
00:33:08There is a visitor here demanding to speak with you.
00:33:11I'm not expecting anyone.
00:33:13It's your ex-wife.
00:33:19It's your ex-wife.
00:33:23It's your ex-wife.
00:33:27It's your ex-wife.
00:33:30It's your ex-wife.
00:33:32It's your ex-wife.
00:33:35It's your ex-wife.
00:33:41Put Miss Rossi in the guest book.
00:33:43Where's Bella?
00:33:45She's with Miss Delaney in the playroom.
00:33:47Good. We need to keep Bella away from Kendra.
00:33:49I have to deal with her.
00:33:51I'll join you at the reunion when I'm done.
00:33:53I can just not go.
00:33:55No. Kendra is not going to disrupt our plans.
00:33:57My driver will take you there. I promise.
00:34:01It's been so long, Julian.
00:34:03Not long enough. What do you want?
00:34:05I want my daughter.
00:34:07I want Bella.
00:34:15I heard Everly is coming to the reunion.
00:34:18I thought that she would never show her face here ever again.
00:34:22Everly? The foster kid weirdo?
00:34:25She destroyed my engagement party, so I'm going to destroy her tonight.
00:34:30Didn't Amanda say she's married to Julian Barlow?
00:34:33What if he's going to come with her?
00:34:35He might fuck her, but a Barlow is not going to marry trash like her.
00:34:55She should be mine.
00:35:00Eyes on me, Nolan.
00:35:02They really did recreate senior prom.
00:35:04Yep. All the waves, the tacky decorations, and the cheesy DJ.
00:35:08Last time I was here, I was with Nolan.
00:35:10My foster mom at the time helped make my dress, and it looked it.
00:35:14We didn't even get our first dance before Olivia told everyone I had an STD.
00:35:17That's right. And then Nolan couldn't take it, and he bailed.
00:35:20We should have known then that he was a dick.
00:35:22Yeah, I forgave him.
00:35:24No one could stand up for Olivia.
00:35:26Myself included at the reunion.
00:35:28Let's play this bitch. I mean the dance, of course.
00:35:32That dress looks like it cost a fortune.
00:35:35What do you think, Olivia?
00:35:37You're a fashion expert.
00:35:39It can't be the nightingale of Hanoi.
00:35:41That dress is worth millions.
00:35:44It's just a cheap knockoff.
00:35:46Come on, girls.
00:35:48Let's give Everly a high school reunion. She'll never forget.
00:35:52Let's give Everly a high school reunion. She'll never forget.
00:35:57Hey! Where's your husband?
00:35:59Julian's on his way.
00:36:01Shut up, loser. No one's talking to you.
00:36:03Bitch.
00:36:04Give it up, Everly. We all know he got bored and dumped you.
00:36:10Like, okay.
00:36:13Did you just fucking shrug at me?
00:36:16Apparently, you've forgotten your place.
00:36:18Must be that dress giving you attitude.
00:36:20But it's a cheap knockoff, just like you.
00:36:22I don't think it's a knockoff.
00:36:24It's a gift from my husband.
00:36:26Give it up, bitch.
00:36:28We all know you're lying, your husband, your dress.
00:36:32I call bullshit.
00:36:34Grow up, Olivia.
00:36:36You're too old to still be a mean girl.
00:36:48Hey, no, no, no.
00:36:51Hey, no, no, no.
00:36:52Let go of me, Nolan.
00:36:54Get your hands off of her.
00:36:56Just because you're fucking a Barlow doesn't make you royalty.
00:36:59Take that fake dress off.
00:37:01Or I'll take it off for you.
00:37:03What makes you think it's fake?
00:37:05You clueless bitch.
00:37:07I'm a fashion influencer.
00:37:10With 1.8 million followers,
00:37:13you expect me to believe that white trash like you
00:37:16are wearing the Nightingale of Hanoi gown
00:37:19valued at 10 million dollars.
00:37:23That's why Julian grinned when I said I'd pay him back for the dress.
00:37:27Take it off.
00:37:33Hey, no, get off of her.
00:37:39Let go.
00:37:40No.
00:37:43No.
00:37:44After me.
00:37:46No.
00:37:49Stop.
00:37:50Get away from my wife.
00:37:55Get away from my wife.
00:38:09Sorry I'm late.
00:38:10The dress is ruined.
00:38:12Please tell me it wasn't worth millions of dollars.
00:38:16I can't tell you that.
00:38:18Apologize to my wife now.
00:38:20We were just joking.
00:38:22You know, fooling around.
00:38:24My wife was on the ground soaking wet.
00:38:26Dress torn.
00:38:28What you did was battery and harassment.
00:38:30My lawyer's not going to think that's funny.
00:38:32I sure as hell don't.
00:38:33Lawyers?
00:38:35Who the hell are you?
00:38:37That's Julian Barlow.
00:38:38He's one of the richest men in the world.
00:38:40Do you know how much this dress is worth?
00:38:42Every bead is a genuine, flawless diamond.
00:38:45Miss St. James, you just ruined a ten million dollar gown.
00:38:48Oh, shit.
00:38:50No.
00:38:52No, no, no.
00:38:54That can't be.
00:38:55You better start liquidating all your assets,
00:38:57including your parents' house,
00:38:58because the insurance company is coming for your ass.
00:39:00Then the police.
00:39:02Good luck finding a job in fashion
00:39:04after ruining one of the most famous dresses in the world.
00:39:08That's all your endorsements leaving you.
00:39:12That's all your endorsements leaving you.
00:39:14You did this.
00:39:16You set me up.
00:39:17You did it to yourself.
00:39:19Nolan, do something.
00:39:21I left the woman I love
00:39:23because you said we'd be rich and now you have nothing.
00:39:26You piece of shit.
00:39:28No.
00:39:32Don't do this.
00:39:34Please don't do this.
00:39:35I'm not the one you need to beg for forgiveness.
00:39:42I'm sorry, Everly.
00:39:46I never should have tormented you
00:39:48all of those years.
00:39:50You didn't deserve it.
00:39:52Then why did you do it?
00:39:54Why me?
00:39:58Why me?
00:39:59Because even with your shitty clothes,
00:40:01your terrible hair,
00:40:03you were still beautiful.
00:40:05Everyone could see it.
00:40:07I would kill to look like you
00:40:09and you treated it like it was nothing.
00:40:12So you hated me
00:40:14because I was pretty and didn't shove it in people's faces?
00:40:17That is so messed up.
00:40:20Well, I was right to hate you.
00:40:23Look at you.
00:40:24You bagged a billionaire without even trying.
00:40:27Everly is beautiful inside and out.
00:40:30That's what draws people to her.
00:40:32You're done here.
00:40:33I'm not going to push any criminal charges,
00:40:35but the insurance company will be reaching out.
00:40:37You're on the hook for that dress.
00:40:39Oh, my God.
00:40:40I never thought that I'd see this in a lifetime.
00:40:42Please pinch me and tell me that I'm not dreaming.
00:40:44If you are, so am I.
00:40:47You want to get out of here?
00:40:48Yes, please.
00:41:03Bitches.
00:41:05I didn't know that high school reunions would be this fun.
00:41:09Thank you for what you did.
00:41:14I never had anyone come to my rescue before.
00:41:17I enjoy doing it.
00:41:19You matter to me, Everly.
00:41:22Me and Bella.
00:41:24Hey.
00:41:26I understand.
00:41:28Thank you again.
00:41:30Have a good night, Julian.
00:41:31Everly, wait.
00:41:33That came out wrong.
00:41:35What I meant was
00:41:38I have feelings for you,
00:41:40but I don't want to lead you on.
00:41:42Kendra's betrayal of our marriage,
00:41:44it broke something inside of me,
00:41:46and I don't think I can commit to another woman.
00:41:51I just want to be with you.
00:41:53I'm not asking for anything else.
00:41:56You're so amazing, Julian,
00:41:58and I like everything about you.
00:42:00You just...
00:42:18Sir, is that you?
00:42:20I heard a noise.
00:42:24Yes, Mr. Gibson.
00:42:26You can go to bed.
00:42:27Yes, sir. Good night, sir.
00:42:29Ma'am.
00:42:31That was embarrassing.
00:42:32I haven't got caught like that since
00:42:34I was a little schoolboy.
00:42:35You think he saw us?
00:42:36He probably did, but he's not going to say anything.
00:42:40I want nothing more than to take you upstairs right now.
00:42:44Me too.
00:42:45You're so honest, Everly.
00:42:47It's one of the many things I admire about you.
00:42:49And although it's going to kill me,
00:42:53I want you to go to bed.
00:42:55You're too noble.
00:42:58No one's ever said that to me before.
00:43:02Good night, sweetheart.
00:43:06Now go.
00:43:08Before I change my mind.
00:43:12Did that just happen?
00:43:14Am I actually dating Julian Barlow?
00:43:22This is nice.
00:43:24Just a little in your hand.
00:43:27What are we going to tell Bella?
00:43:29I don't want to get her hopes up,
00:43:30but we are dating now.
00:43:32Change of steps.
00:43:35I have to butt her first.
00:43:37Have you always thought of others at the expense of yourself?
00:43:40That's why I was bullied so much growing up.
00:43:42And why people take advantage of me.
00:43:44Don't say that.
00:43:46You're the best person I know, Everly.
00:43:48And now you have me.
00:43:50And I promise I won't let anyone hurt you anymore.
00:44:00So you think you can replace me with this whore, Julian?
00:44:03Let's see how that works out when I get through with the both of you.
00:44:11So, this is your latest slut.
00:44:14Kendra, are you following me?
00:44:16I'm Bella's mother.
00:44:17I need to know what her father is doing.
00:44:19And who is doing.
00:44:21So you fuck the help now, Julian?
00:44:23Who I'm with is none of your business.
00:44:25You gave that right up three years ago
00:44:27when you cheated on me with my best friend.
00:44:29Then you abandoned your daughter and went to Europe
00:44:32with some tennis pro at a club.
00:44:34That was ages ago.
00:44:36I've changed now.
00:44:38I'm ready to be a wife and a mother.
00:44:40And you can't let this homewrecker
00:44:42get in the way of what we can have.
00:44:44Everly is my wife now.
00:44:46And stay away from Bella.
00:44:48You don't have visitation rights.
00:44:50Oh, we'll see about that.
00:44:52I'm Bella's birth mother.
00:44:54That's never going to change.
00:44:56I can't lose my daughter, Everly.
00:44:58You won't.
00:45:00I love you.
00:45:10Hello, sir.
00:45:12What can I get for you today?
00:45:14I need to ask a favor of you.
00:45:16Sorry.
00:45:18No freebies for men with mean ex-wives?
00:45:20No ex-wife.
00:45:22Just one wife.
00:45:24Right in front of me.
00:45:26I'm still working.
00:45:29I'll kick you out if you're not a paying customer.
00:45:31Then I'll pay now.
00:45:37I guess just bought the entire store.
00:45:39I need help
00:45:41from my favorite cake baker.
00:45:43Bella's elementary school is hosting a
00:45:45bake sale and every family
00:45:47brings a homemade dessert
00:45:49and they all compete for first place.
00:45:51Would you want to go with us?
00:45:55You want me to be a part of your family?
00:45:57Can I be your neighbors?
00:45:59Of course.
00:46:07No, you have to stir in the same direction
00:46:09clockwise 30 times.
00:46:11Wow.
00:46:13I had no idea you had to be so accurate.
00:46:15You do if you want to be the best.
00:46:19No, not like that. Like this.
00:46:27You are the worst student.
00:46:29I'm sorry I can't concentrate
00:46:31because my teacher's so hot.
00:46:53I'm gonna get you.
00:46:57Come here.
00:47:13Hey, Bella.
00:47:15Remember me?
00:47:17No.
00:47:19I'm your mother.
00:47:21No, you're not. Everly's my mom.
00:47:23I chose her.
00:47:26You can't choose your mother. You're born with one and that's what you get.
00:47:28That's enough, Kindra.
00:47:30You're upsetting Bella and causing a scene.
00:47:32Whatever.
00:47:34You have a side. I'm going to win this bake sale
00:47:36and prove who the real mother is.
00:47:40These are store-bought cookies.
00:47:42What is she thinking?
00:47:44No, she made those.
00:47:46Her family owns Rossi Cookies.
00:47:48They're a franchise. They have stores in every country.
00:47:50You didn't tell me your ex was a world-renowned baker.
00:47:52She doesn't have a tenth of your talent.
00:47:54Her grandma's the baker.
00:47:56She uses the recipes.
00:47:58There's not one creative bone in her body.
00:48:04Oh, my God.
00:48:06That's amazing.
00:48:08I want to buy all of it.
00:48:10Who made this?
00:48:12Julian Barlow?
00:48:14I had no idea he was such a talented baker.
00:48:20Here. Try mine.
00:48:23I'm sorry not to brag, but the Rossi name is renowned
00:48:25in the world of desserts.
00:48:27Not bad, but nowhere near the Barlow's.
00:48:29I'm telling you all to taste it.
00:48:31It's simply magic in your mouth.
00:48:33I think we know who the winner is.
00:48:43You want to see magic?
00:48:45I'm going to make that bitch disappear.
00:48:47Abra-fucking-cadabra.
00:48:53Can't forget that.
00:48:55Top of Bella's birthday list.
00:48:57She would never forgive me.
00:48:59Well, aren't we the perfect little housewife?
00:49:01That is,
00:49:03until Bella is rushed to the hospital.
00:49:05Psst.
00:49:09Early.
00:49:11Hi.
00:49:13So lucky to run into you here.
00:49:15Oh, how so?
00:49:17I owe you an apology
00:49:19for how weird I was to you earlier.
00:49:21In my defense,
00:49:23you'd have to be a mother to understand
00:49:25how it feels to see another woman raising a child.
00:49:27Do you have it in your heart to forgive me?
00:49:29It's Bella and Julian you owe an apology to,
00:49:31not me.
00:49:33Watch your back.
00:49:35There's a long line of women
00:49:37waiting to get their claws into Julian.
00:49:39Beautiful, sexy,
00:49:41sophisticated women
00:49:43who are suited to his lifestyle
00:49:45to ease every want and desire.
00:49:48Is there some kind of threat?
00:49:50No.
00:49:52Just the cold, hard fact
00:49:54that you, Everly Harper,
00:49:56will never be more than
00:49:58a glorified babysitter to him.
00:50:00That's funny.
00:50:02Because you'll never be more than
00:50:04a bitter memory to him.
00:50:06Now stop messing
00:50:08with our family.
00:50:10Next time, I won't be so nice.
00:50:15Next time?
00:50:17Next time, you'll be the psycho
00:50:19who drugged Julian's daughter.
00:50:25Can I ask you a question?
00:50:29Why did you choose me?
00:50:31Ooh.
00:50:33Where's this coming from?
00:50:35I mean, once Bella grows up
00:50:37and doesn't need a mom anymore,
00:50:39will you still want to be with me?
00:50:41Everly, sweetheart,
00:50:43this doesn't sound like you.
00:50:46It's just, I'm not like
00:50:48the society women you've dated in the past.
00:50:50What if you get bored with me?
00:50:56Imagine dating someone
00:50:58who barely eats because they're watching their figure
00:51:00and spends more time with their plastic surgeons
00:51:02and with their family.
00:51:04You mean these society women?
00:51:08You're so bad.
00:51:10I'm sorry.
00:51:12I let Kendra get in my head.
00:51:14Kendra.
00:51:18It's Bella's school.
00:51:20This is Julian Barlow.
00:51:24Emergency room.
00:51:26Uh-huh.
00:51:28I understand. I'm on my way.
00:51:30What's going on? Is Bella okay?
00:51:32The school nurse said that she was poisoned.
00:51:34Something she ate. Something about a lollipop.
00:51:37Bella is asleep.
00:51:39Fortunately, the lab results just showed
00:51:41that it was a common prescribed sedative
00:51:43that was on the lollipop.
00:51:45How does this happen? I don't understand.
00:51:47I have to ask.
00:51:49Have you had any threats recently
00:51:51or encountered any suspicious characters?
00:51:53It came as soon as I heard.
00:51:55How is our precious Bella?
00:51:57She's coming along.
00:51:59Okay. Poison?
00:52:01No, no, no, no.
00:52:03It's not poison.
00:52:05Poison?
00:52:07My God, what kind of monster
00:52:09would poison an innocent child?
00:52:11With a lollipop, no less.
00:52:13I'm sorry. Doctor, did you say lollipop?
00:52:15The perpetrator poisoned
00:52:17Julian and my daughter
00:52:19with a lollipop.
00:52:21Well,
00:52:23that's interesting because
00:52:25I ran into Everly at the bakery yesterday
00:52:27and I saw one of Bella's
00:52:29favorite rainbow-colored lollipops.
00:52:31Are you suggesting that I had
00:52:34something to do with this?
00:52:36You gave Bella that lollipop, did you not?
00:52:44I did.
00:52:46I can't believe this.
00:52:48Our precious Bella, our little angel
00:52:50drugged by yet another baby.
00:52:52I did no such thing. I would never...
00:52:54Wait, hold on. Bella's been poisoned
00:52:56before? Is this true, Julian?
00:52:58When she was 18 months old,
00:53:00I had a babysitter and I haven't been able to trust
00:53:02anyone since then, just you.
00:53:04But now I...
00:53:06Now what?
00:53:08I'll tell you what.
00:53:10You're not coming near Bella ever again.
00:53:14No, no, this can't be real.
00:53:16You know I would never hurt Bella.
00:53:18You know I love her like she's my own daughter.
00:53:20Oh, but she's not.
00:53:22She's ours.
00:53:24Julian, will you be calling security
00:53:26or shall I?
00:53:28Julian,
00:53:31will you be calling security or shall I?
00:53:37Everly, I'm sorry.
00:53:39I'm sorry for ever doubting you, even for a second.
00:53:41I know that you could never harm Bella.
00:53:43Not because you're my wife,
00:53:45but because it's your loving heart.
00:53:47Julian, what are you saying? She's dangerous!
00:53:49Stop, Kendra, just stop!
00:53:51But...
00:53:53Look at the evidence.
00:53:55Everly bought the rainbow-colored lollipop
00:53:57for Bella. Who else could have tampered with it?
00:54:01How did you know it was a rainbow lollipop?
00:54:03Ellen mentioned
00:54:05what color it was.
00:54:07No, you switched them.
00:54:09At the bakery parking lot,
00:54:11that's why you were there.
00:54:13You drugged your own daughter
00:54:15just to frame me? What kind of sicko does that?
00:54:17You can't prove that.
00:54:19But your prescription medicine can.
00:54:21Julian, stop! That's not mine!
00:54:23She's been taking Sandra since I met her.
00:54:27That's exactly what was found in Bella's system.
00:54:30It's...
00:54:32You psychotic bitch! First you tried to kill my daughter,
00:54:34now you're trying to frame my wife?
00:54:36It's common. It could be found from anywhere.
00:54:38It could have been anyone.
00:54:42It could have been you.
00:54:44It was you, wasn't it? I'm telling you, it wasn't!
00:54:49Bella's waking up.
00:54:55Thank God she's okay.
00:54:57The thought of losing her
00:54:59is too much to bear.
00:55:01We don't have to think about that.
00:55:03She has you.
00:55:05I have you.
00:55:07And we all have each other.
00:55:09Whatever comes our way.
00:55:11That's what family's for.
00:55:13That's what it means to love.
00:55:15And be loved.
00:55:17Exactly.
00:55:21Stop it. We're in the children's ward.
00:55:23I'm pretty sure all these doctors and nurses
00:55:25know how babies are born.
00:55:28Mommy?
00:55:30Daddy?
00:55:34Brain check?
00:55:36Oh, you can count on it.
00:55:38Is that my little munchkin in there making noise?
00:55:42Welcome in.
00:55:44What can I get started...
00:55:46No.
00:55:48What, is there a rule against selling a cake
00:55:50to your ex? Come on, Eileen.
00:55:52Look, Everly,
00:55:54I'm sorry I made a big mistake.
00:55:56I'll admit that, but I've changed.
00:55:58I left Olivia, and I just want to start fresh.
00:56:00I want to do this again.
00:56:02Are you serious?
00:56:04Yes, it was all Olivia's doing.
00:56:06You know how manipulative she can be.
00:56:08And I only loved you the entire time.
00:56:10You think Julian's a multi-billionaire?
00:56:12You think he'd really go for someone like you?
00:56:14I mean, get real, Everly.
00:56:16If he doesn't love you,
00:56:18I do.
00:56:20We'd probably die without you.
00:56:23Get the hell
00:56:25out of my bakery.
00:56:27You fucking bitch.
00:56:29No one's gonna come to save you.
00:56:33Stay away from my wife!
00:56:35Last warning!
00:56:37Stay away from her or I'll break more than just your arm.
00:56:39Motherfucker.
00:56:41If I can't have her,
00:56:43no one can.
00:56:49Thank you for stepping in, Julian.
00:56:51I wish I could be here all the time,
00:56:53but I can't.
00:56:55Nolan,
00:56:57it's gonna be a problem.
00:56:59I can't exactly lock my doors.
00:57:01Don't work by yourself anymore.
00:57:03Make sure Samantha's with you.
00:57:09I'm ready for the lunch, Ken.
00:57:13I have to pick her up
00:57:15right now.
00:57:17We'll see you later?
00:57:20See you later.
00:57:36And the hits keep coming.
00:57:38First my ex,
00:57:40now his.
00:57:42Will we ever catch a break?
00:57:50We have to
00:57:52keep that from Bella.
00:57:54I'll get my lawyer to file a restraining order
00:57:56against Kendra this week.
00:57:58Maybe there's a way we can make peace with Bella's mom.
00:58:00We've tried.
00:58:02She's turned every attempt against us,
00:58:04including Bella.
00:58:06I can't risk
00:58:08losing my daughter.
00:58:12How can I help protect Bella?
00:58:14No, Everly, it's not your fight.
00:58:16Listen, it's contract or not, you and I are in this together.
00:58:18I can't stand by while you and Bella suffer.
00:58:40What if Bella wakes up?
00:58:42She hung her head years ago
00:58:44when I was a skeptic.
00:58:46I know.
00:59:17What are your thoughts
00:59:19on a family date?
00:59:21The three of us.
00:59:23You want to go on a picnic?
00:59:25I'll go
00:59:27wherever you'll take me.
00:59:31So where did you get
00:59:33Bangla?
00:59:35Bangla?
00:59:37Bangla?
00:59:39Bangla?
00:59:41Bangla?
00:59:43Bangla?
00:59:45So where did you get Bangla?
00:59:47When I was three years old.
00:59:49Yep, we were outside
00:59:51and she saw a rabbit run across the yard
00:59:53and she looked at me and reached her hands out
00:59:55and I said, no, you can't have a wild animal.
00:59:57She started crying.
00:59:59So naturally, I got her Bangla the next day.
01:00:01Naturally.
01:00:09My baby.
01:00:11Come to mom.
01:00:14You look like a stalker.
01:00:16I'm still your mother
01:00:18and I brought your favorite food,
01:00:20strawberries.
01:00:22Everly loves me more than you
01:00:24and I love her too
01:00:26and I can't eat strawberries.
01:00:28Darling,
01:00:30that woman is just
01:00:32after daddy's money.
01:00:34You're lying. I hate you.
01:00:36You can't talk to me like that.
01:00:38I'm your mother.
01:00:40No, you're not. Everly is my mommy.
01:00:42You little brat.
01:00:44Someone needs to teach you some manners.
01:00:50Someone needs to teach you some manners.
01:00:52Mommy, daddy!
01:00:54Kendra, what the hell?
01:00:56I'm trying to protect my daughter
01:00:58from this fucking bitch.
01:01:00Hey, watch your language in front of Bella.
01:01:02Strawberries? Kendra, are you insane?
01:01:04Bella is deathly allergic.
01:01:06How was I supposed to know?
01:01:08You never let me see that thing.
01:01:11Shut up, you lying gold digger.
01:01:13I'm twice the mother that you'll ever be.
01:01:15Bella!
01:01:17Come back, sweetie.
01:01:19She's overwhelmed. You're scaring her.
01:01:21You know nothing
01:01:23about my daughter,
01:01:25but I know about you.
01:01:27You're just a foster kid,
01:01:29one step up from the gutter.
01:01:31Bella and I both know that Everly
01:01:33is the best thing to happen to this family.
01:01:35Bella,
01:01:37sweetie, you can't possibly
01:01:39think that this poor substitute
01:01:41is better than a real mother.
01:01:43We have the same blood.
01:01:45You're part Rossi.
01:01:47You can't ask your daughter that. Shut up!
01:01:49Kendra, this isn't some game
01:01:51that you can win.
01:01:53This is Bella and Julian's lives.
01:01:55I don't know why, but you abandoned them.
01:01:57You trying to snatch them back
01:01:59just so you can win won't make you happy.
01:02:01You have to move on.
01:02:03You have to move on.
01:02:06I know
01:02:08I don't deserve her,
01:02:10but I found out last month that
01:02:12I'm infertile.
01:02:14I can never have another baby.
01:02:16Bella's it for me.
01:02:28I know
01:02:30she's done some bad things,
01:02:32but she's still your mother, Bella.
01:02:34Why don't you go give her a hug?
01:02:38I don't really hate you.
01:02:40I know, baby.
01:02:44It's all my fault.
01:02:50You're right.
01:02:52I only wanted to win.
01:02:54You can win a game,
01:02:56but you can never win someone's heart.
01:02:58You're very wise.
01:03:00Don't get me wrong,
01:03:03I don't want to be your friend.
01:03:05I'm just trying to leave my daughter with a happy memory.
01:03:11Take care, Kendra.
01:03:13Maybe one day I'll let Bella write you.
01:03:15She's old.
01:03:19Bye, sweetie.
01:03:23She fell for my sob story.
01:03:25Stupid bitch.
01:03:27I won't stop until I get my man back
01:03:29and the kid with him.
01:03:33Oh!
01:03:35What's all this for?
01:03:39100th Annual International Bake-Off.
01:03:41Sounds like a big deal.
01:03:43It's invitation only,
01:03:45and I can't believe I got in.
01:03:47If I do well, it'll really help put the bakery on the map.
01:03:49Well, given how you rocked that bake sale,
01:03:51you've got this in the bag.
01:03:53That was nothing.
01:03:55I need a showstopper that's going to dazzle their taste buds
01:03:57and win over their hearts.
01:03:59So what's the secret weapon?
01:04:03Vanilla rosemary five-layer cake
01:04:05topped with a lavender buttercream
01:04:07and a hint of orange zest.
01:04:09Sounds like I need to clear some space
01:04:11on the mantle for that first place trophy.
01:04:13Cut it out!
01:04:15I'm trying to concentrate.
01:04:17Oh.
01:04:19Am I distracting you?
01:04:21I'm a sucker for a messy April.
01:04:25Okay, fine.
01:04:28You can stay,
01:04:30but you have to make yourself useful.
01:04:32What's first, chef?
01:04:36Ladies and gentlemen,
01:04:38welcome to our 100th Annual International Bake-Off.
01:04:40Please find your seat.
01:04:42Our competition will start shortly.
01:04:50You got this, girl.
01:04:52We'll be on the front row cheering you on, okay?
01:04:54Thank you, Sammy.
01:04:56One more time?
01:05:00Knock them dead out there, sweetheart.
01:05:04Good luck.
01:05:12There you are,
01:05:14falling nicely into my trap.
01:05:16Who do you think arranged the invite,
01:05:18you pathetic nobody?
01:05:26Hey, Everly.
01:05:28Ready to get crushed?
01:05:30Angel, what are you doing here?
01:05:32Are you stalking me?
01:05:34You look scary.
01:05:36You should be.
01:05:38I'm going to win that trophy
01:05:40and confuse the better baker and mother.
01:05:42I'm infertile.
01:05:44I can never have another baby.
01:05:46So everything you said at the park was a lie.
01:05:48You're not infertile.
01:05:50You just can't stand that Bella chose me.
01:05:52I'm her fucking mother, bitch.
01:05:55You're a monster.
01:05:57And you're just an amateur
01:05:59who doesn't deserve to be here.
01:06:01Did you really think you earned a place
01:06:03in this competition?
01:06:05I'm the one who got the judges to invite you
01:06:07and now Julian's going to see
01:06:09what a poor orphan loser you truly are.
01:06:13Bring it on, Rossi.
01:06:15My recipe has heart and soul
01:06:17and they will beat your assembly line crap
01:06:19any day.
01:06:21Oh yeah?
01:06:23Do you know what goes great with cake?
01:06:25What?
01:06:27Coffee.
01:06:37Angel, what the hell?
01:06:39You better go get cleaned up.
01:06:41I wouldn't want to meet the judges looking like that.
01:06:43So unsanitary.
01:06:51You're a knight in shining armor.
01:06:53Can't save your ass this time.
01:06:55Never lose.
01:06:57Our next competitor,
01:06:59Kendra Rossi.
01:07:05Hi, judge.
01:07:07This is my own
01:07:09one-of-a-kind, original recipe.
01:07:13What is it?
01:07:15What is it?
01:07:17What is it?
01:07:20A
01:07:22vanilla rosemary
01:07:24five-layer cake with lavender buttercream
01:07:26and a hint of orange zest.
01:07:28That's my cake!
01:07:33What are you talking about?
01:07:35You stole my recipe.
01:07:37A nobody accusing me,
01:07:39a Rossi, of cheating?
01:07:41How dare you?
01:07:43Man,
01:07:45you have impeccable taste in women
01:07:47because obviously you chose Everly,
01:07:49but that woman up there?
01:07:51How did you end up with such a nightmare ex?
01:07:53I was young.
01:07:55And stupid.
01:07:57Yeah, obviously.
01:07:59So what are we going to do to salvage this?
01:08:01Can't you just pull some strings or something?
01:08:03You're Julie and freaking Barlow, for goodness sake.
01:08:05It's not that simple.
01:08:07I know Everly wouldn't want to win that way.
01:08:09Dammit.
01:08:11So what do we do now?
01:08:13Kendra can't get away with this.
01:08:15A nobody accusing me,
01:08:17a Rossi, of cheating?
01:08:19How dare you?
01:08:25You better go get cleaned up.
01:08:27Wouldn't want to meet the judges looking like that.
01:08:29So that's why you spilled coffee on me.
01:08:31So you could
01:08:33hack my laptop behind my back
01:08:35the same way you switched the lollipops behind my back
01:08:37when you poisoned Bella.
01:08:39That is a serious accusation.
01:08:41Now,
01:08:43can you prove that this cake is your creation?
01:08:45Here's your proof.
01:08:55We can't see anything.
01:08:57The screen is blank.
01:08:59We can't see anything.
01:09:01The screen is blank.
01:09:03What happened to my files?
01:09:05They're not there.
01:09:07As I said, this recipe is mine.
01:09:09And mine alone.
01:09:11No, no, no. It's not true.
01:09:13You're a thief.
01:09:15I think we've heard enough.
01:09:17Sir, I know this recipe, my recipe, by heart.
01:09:19I can recite it from memory.
01:09:21I'm afraid that doesn't prove anything.
01:09:23Now, I think it's
01:09:25best that you leave the stage now
01:09:27before I have to
01:09:29disqualify you.
01:09:31Isn't that the baker
01:09:33from Sweet Escape Bakery?
01:09:35Not going to her shop, ever.
01:09:37Wait!
01:09:43Wait!
01:09:47This will prove the recipe is Everly's.
01:09:55Now, you're going to want to let it cool
01:09:57for about ten minutes.
01:09:59Hey, back on me. This is the important part.
01:10:01The last step is to lightly
01:10:03dust with a layer of orange zest.
01:10:05Just enough to reach the edges.
01:10:11And then
01:10:13you're going to want to add a pinch of salt.
01:10:15And...
01:10:17Voila!
01:10:19You'll see the time stamp of this raw
01:10:21footage was taken two weeks ago.
01:10:23And speaking from experience,
01:10:25no one
01:10:27can make this cake exactly like my wife.
01:10:35Something's
01:10:37different.
01:10:39Taste for yourself.
01:10:45Salt.
01:10:47Missing the salt.
01:10:49I didn't include it in my recipe notes.
01:10:51It was a last minute spur of the moment addition.
01:10:53Totally spontaneous.
01:10:55And yet, it made all the difference in the world.
01:10:57Salt?
01:10:59Salt?
01:11:05Salt?
01:11:17Salt or not,
01:11:19this is no ordinary cake.
01:11:21And it could only come
01:11:23from the heart and soul
01:11:25of an extraordinary baker.
01:11:27You almost
01:11:29ruined my wife today.
01:11:31This is your last straw. Confess
01:11:33or I'm calling the police.
01:11:35But I didn't.
01:11:37Okay, okay.
01:11:39I did it.
01:11:41I did it.
01:11:43All of it.
01:11:45Are you happy now?
01:11:47Dragging me in the mud like this in front of everyone?
01:11:49Julian, you broke my heart.
01:11:51You have to have a heart for it to be broken.
01:11:53Julian, you broke my heart.
01:11:55You have to have a heart for it to be broken.
01:11:57How can you say that?
01:11:59I loved you
01:12:01more than anything.
01:12:03And then this bitch gets into the picture
01:12:05and suddenly I'm nothing?
01:12:07Just some garbage you can throw away?
01:12:09What is so special
01:12:11about her, Julian?
01:12:13She's not prettier than me.
01:12:15She can't be better in bed than me.
01:12:17What do you possibly see in her that you don't see in me?
01:12:19Maybe I'm just a better baker than you, Kendra.
01:12:21Kendra?
01:12:23Here.
01:12:25Have a taste.
01:12:27I don't want your stupid salt.
01:12:29Oh, my God!
01:12:31Oh, my God!
01:12:33It smells disgusting.
01:12:35It smells like a rotten potato chip
01:12:37and Bella could have made a better cake than that.
01:12:41I...
01:12:43I don't even know what to say
01:12:45about everything that's going on here.
01:12:47Say I can present my cake.
01:12:49That's all I came here to do, sir.
01:12:51Fair enough.
01:12:53The ingredients in my cake are pretty traditional
01:12:55in terms of regular cake ingredients.
01:12:57I like the rosemary because it tends to cut through
01:12:59the sweetness of traditional cakes
01:13:01while also balancing the orange zest
01:13:03aromatic flavoring that we really look for
01:13:05in a well-balanced cake.
01:13:07I also, um, not listed,
01:13:09I add a little bit of salt on top just to balance
01:13:11everything out and I hope you
01:13:13really like it.
01:13:20We have seen
01:13:22a lot of great bakes this year
01:13:24but nothing in the history
01:13:26of this competition has ever
01:13:28compared to this year's
01:13:30first prize winner
01:13:32Everly Harper.
01:13:34This year's first prize winner
01:13:36Everly Harper.
01:13:41Congratulations, Miss Harper.
01:13:43You're truly well-deserved.
01:13:45Would you excuse me?
01:13:47Great.
01:13:51Oh, we did it, Samantha, we did it.
01:13:53No, Everly, you did this.
01:13:55Hold on.
01:13:59Listen to this.
01:14:01Orders are flooding in like crazy.
01:14:03No, no, no, no, no.
01:14:05I've got this. Trust me.
01:14:07Now get out of here. Go celebrate with your hubby.
01:14:09Yeah?
01:14:13I am so proud of you, Everly.
01:14:17Get lost.
01:14:19I'm more likely to stick a bitch
01:14:21than suck a dick right now.
01:14:23Good.
01:14:25And we both want the same thing.
01:14:27Yeah?
01:14:29What's that?
01:14:31Revenge.
01:14:33I've spent the last two weeks
01:14:35learning everything I can about
01:14:37Julian Barlow and Everly Harper's
01:14:39relationship.
01:14:41And I think what I found might interest you.
01:14:43Who the fuck are you?
01:14:45I'm someone that hates
01:14:47Julian, and I heard you're someone
01:14:49that hates Everly.
01:14:51So I have a plan that'll get us both
01:14:53what we want.
01:14:55I'm listening.
01:15:03Am I doing it right?
01:15:05Those look great.
01:15:07Just squeeze your bag a little bit tighter.
01:15:09More icing equals more smiles.
01:15:11Okay.
01:15:13Time to switch to croissants.
01:15:15The chocolate filled kind?
01:15:17All different kinds.
01:15:19Can you go in the freezer in the back
01:15:21and get me two blocks of butter?
01:15:23They are left side, middle shelf.
01:15:25Left side, middle shelf, two blocks.
01:15:27Got it.
01:15:41You're coming with me, Bella.
01:15:43I'm your mother.
01:15:45Not that whore.
01:15:47Everly!
01:15:49Save your breath, kid.
01:15:51She can't hear you anyway.
01:15:53Everly! Everly!
01:15:55Shut up.
01:15:59Let go!
01:16:11Bella?
01:16:23Bella? Bella?
01:16:25Bella!
01:16:37Everly!
01:16:39Back here!
01:16:45Shh.
01:16:55This is Julian Barlow.
01:16:57I have your daughter.
01:16:59And if I don't get 200 million
01:17:01in cash by sundown, she won't see
01:17:03the sunrise.
01:17:05What did you do with Bella? Who is this?
01:17:07This is Julian. Unmarked bills split into
01:17:09two separate duffel bags.
01:17:11Let me talk to Bella. I need to know she's safe.
01:17:13Only after I get the money.
01:17:15Damn you!
01:17:17She's just a little girl.
01:17:19There's an abandoned campsite at the end of Canyon Ridge Road.
01:17:21Put the cash inside the office cabin
01:17:23and come alone.
01:17:25Because I'll be watching.
01:17:27When do I get Bella?
01:17:33What are we gonna do?
01:17:35I'll call my bank.
01:17:37I'll get the money within an hour.
01:17:43Hello? Anybody?
01:17:45Hello?
01:17:47What is she doing here?
01:17:49I need an explanation for this.
01:17:51Mother, now is not the time for this.
01:17:53I had to learn from Kendra that you're not married at all.
01:17:55That you fake everything.
01:17:57What is this? This is from my safe.
01:17:59Combination was Bella's birthday.
01:18:01Very sloppy of you, Julian.
01:18:03How could you lie to your own mother
01:18:05and present this fraud
01:18:07as if she were actually your wife?
01:18:09I knew she was a gold digger, but I didn't know she was a tramp for hire.
01:18:11Silence!
01:18:15This is not important right now.
01:18:17That is just a piece of paper, Mother.
01:18:19I have to find Bella. She's been kidnapped.
01:18:21My grandbaby has been kidnapped?
01:18:23What happened?
01:18:25Bella and I were baking and someone grabbed me.
01:18:29I blacked out and when I woke up,
01:18:31I knew it was gone.
01:18:33I have to get the ransom money together now,
01:18:35so if you two could please just...
01:18:37Just what?
01:18:39Stand aside and let you handle it?
01:18:41You brought this tramp into my daughter's home
01:18:43and because of her, Bella's life is at stake.
01:18:47Ew.
01:18:49It smells.
01:18:51Did you just let common street trash walk in here?
01:18:53Don't talk about him like that.
01:18:55Bernie is a veteran. He served our country.
01:18:57I'm sorry, Bernie.
01:18:59I don't have the day jobs for you today.
01:19:01But I have something for you.
01:19:03That lady, I saw her.
01:19:05And a tall man.
01:19:09Go back and crawl into whatever hole you came out of, you filthy animal.
01:19:15I saw them.
01:19:19They took that little girl.
01:19:21Fucking bitch!
01:19:23What did you do? Where's Bella?
01:19:25He's obviously deranged. Or on drugs. Or both.
01:19:27A tall man.
01:19:29Did he have short, blonde hair?
01:19:31Athletic build?
01:19:35Nolan.
01:19:37She's working with Nolan.
01:19:39Where is she? Where's Bella?
01:19:41Tell me now!
01:19:43I...
01:19:49What the hell?
01:19:51Where's my daughter?
01:19:57Where is she?
01:20:13Daddy?
01:20:19My little escape artist.
01:20:23You can come out now, Munchkin.
01:20:25It's safe.
01:20:27Daddy and Emily are here.
01:20:39This is ridiculous!
01:20:41It's not kidnapping if it's your own child!
01:20:45This is ridiculous!
01:20:47It's not kidnapping if it's your own child!
01:20:51It's over.
01:20:53It's over.
01:20:55Is it me and Mommy gone for good, Daddy?
01:20:57She'll never bother you again, Munchkin.
01:20:59I want you both to know that
01:21:01I'm very ashamed for my part
01:21:03in Kendra's scheme.
01:21:05But you can't continue this fake marriage.
01:21:07You're right, Mother.
01:21:13Everly Harper,
01:21:15you're the most loving, brave,
01:21:17and talented woman I've ever known.
01:21:19Your beauty is just dessert.
01:21:21After a rich meal,
01:21:23my life feels full with you in it.
01:21:25Will you do me the honor
01:21:27of marrying me?
01:21:29Emily!
01:21:35Julian Barlow,
01:21:37if I was to create a recipe
01:21:39for the bravest, smartest,
01:21:41most loving man,
01:21:43it would be you.
01:21:45Your wealth is not a dessert,
01:21:47but a mere appetizer.
01:21:49So, yes, I will marry you.
01:21:51And you, too.
01:21:57I don't know what all that nonsense
01:21:59about food was,
01:22:01but the rest was lovely.
01:22:03I guess I'll give the girl a chance
01:22:05if she can make my son and grandbaby
01:22:07smile like that.
01:22:13Look at this.
01:22:15Do you see that?
01:22:19Yay!
01:22:25So pretty.
01:22:31I helped make that.
01:22:33Yes, you did, Bella.
01:22:35Have you guys ever seen such a beautiful family?
01:22:37I'm so happy for you.
01:22:39Thanks, Bestie.
01:22:43Mommy, how about a cake fight?
01:22:45You're a girl after my own heart, Bella.
01:22:47Everybody, cake fight!
01:23:17Couldn't you have gotten me
01:23:19something more practical?
01:23:21This is going to be a bear to bake with.
01:23:23Only my wife would complain
01:23:25about a 15-carat flawless diamond
01:23:27being too big.
01:23:29I'm sorry.
01:23:31I'm not.
01:23:35God, I love you.
01:23:39Hey, Mr. Barlow.
01:23:41I love you, too.
01:23:44Hey, Mr. Barlow.
01:23:47Hey, Miss Barlow.
01:23:49I said I was changing my name.
01:23:51Yes.
01:23:55On the topic of change,
01:23:57I've been thinking.
01:23:59Bella needs a playmate.
01:24:01What do you think we give her a sibling?
01:24:03Just one.
01:24:05Foster a kid here.
01:24:07I always dreamed of having a big family.
01:24:09Well, how big are we talking?
01:24:13I don't know.
01:24:15I don't know.
