00:00:10Hey!
00:00:11I hope you can get your head out of these architecture books, Holly, and finally go out with me.
00:00:16Never in a million years, Dirk Dingle.
00:00:19I want your book back. Why don't you come and get it?
00:00:23Come on. Hey!
00:00:25Listen, don't fight this, okay? We will be together eventually.
00:00:28Get off me!
00:00:30Hey, don't fight me, okay?
00:00:37Ow!
00:00:38You bitch!
00:00:41She said she's not interested, bro!
00:00:45Rick Brody. Oh, you always gotta play the hero, huh?
00:00:48Yeah, go ahead. You're one demerit away from getting thrown out of this school.
00:00:52You want your book back so bad?
00:00:54Alright.
00:00:55You take it.
00:00:57No!
00:01:07No!
00:01:08No! This is gonna cost a fortune to replace!
00:01:12You can have mine.
00:01:14No, I couldn't.
00:01:16Yeah, you're good. I've seen you in class. You are brilliant.
00:01:21I'm gonna get way more use out of this than I ever would.
00:01:25Do you want to grab lunch? Or keep studying?
00:01:40Uh, yeah.
00:01:41Yeah?
00:01:42Grab lunch.
00:01:43We're doing great.
00:01:44on there.
00:01:45But when did you two get back from the honeymoon?
00:01:50WHA.
00:01:51Just an hour ago and, and this was waiting for me when I got back.
00:01:55when I got back. I got in, Daddy. The Young Architects Program in Paris. It's a dream come true.
00:02:02And when we get back, we're gonna rebuild this town. Together.
00:02:11Allie, give me some ice. Sure, Daddy.
00:02:17Are you two insane? Rebuild this town? This town is dying,
00:02:23and I want my daughter as far away from it as possible.
00:02:27Sir, we have a plan. We even applied to adopt a child.
00:02:32Even more reason to end this now before you keep her trapped here forever.
00:02:37I promised Allie's mother before she passed away that I would take care of our daughter.
00:02:41She deserves more than this two-bit town, and quite frankly, she deserves more than you.
00:02:47But sir, I love her more than anything. I promise I will always take care of her.
00:02:53And you think that's important?
00:02:56She's going to be a world-class architect.
00:03:00You, you're a local boy with a hammer.
00:03:03If you truly loved her, you'd let her go.
00:03:06Let her make something of herself!
00:03:09Deep down, you know I'm right.
00:03:11Here.
00:03:17This should be enough.
00:03:19I want her on that plane alone.
00:03:26I want her on that plane alone.
00:03:32For Mr. and Mrs. Craig Brody. We just got married.
00:03:36I got into an architecture program at Paris, and my new husband is coming with me.
00:03:42Actually, I'm not coming with you, Allie.
00:03:45What? Why?
00:03:47You think I want to just sit around while you study crumbling buildings?
00:03:51You're never going to be a real architect.
00:03:53The world is going to chew you up and spit you out, and it's going to be too pathetic for me to watch.
00:03:59Um, what, what? No, what about our plans?
00:04:07We were trying to start a family together.
00:04:09No, the last person I'd want to start a family with is you, Allie.
00:04:14I want a divorce.
00:04:16No, no, but where is this coming from?
00:04:21Hi Craig baby.
00:04:23Are you seeing Trista now?
00:04:25Yeah, just, just send me the divorce papers, okay?
00:04:29Craig, no, what?
00:04:34I thought you believed in me.
00:04:37Ma'am, boarding is closing. Are you coming or not?
00:04:43Ma'am, boarding is closing. Are you coming or not?
00:04:48Yes, but I'd like to change my ticket to one way.
00:04:50Miss Siltner! Miss Siltner, you were just recognized as Time Magazine's top CEO to watch,
00:05:03and your company is taking the New York architecture scene by storm. What's next for you?
00:05:07Um, I don't know. Taking over the world?
00:05:11Well, you and your boyfriend, billionaire politician Ned Vogel, are quite the power couple.
00:05:16He must be so proud.
00:05:18I'm not doing any of this for a man's approval.
00:05:20Well, word on the street is he's planning on proposing.
00:05:23You must be the luckiest girl in the world.
00:05:27The luckiest girl in the world?
00:05:29Right. Miss Bildner, I-
00:05:31Oh my god.
00:05:47Allie Bildner, you are the most impressive woman I've ever met.
00:05:52You are my soul mate.
00:06:05Will you marry me?
00:06:10Will you marry me?
00:06:12How will you build me? I love you more than anything.
00:06:15You are my soul mate and the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:06:18Will you make me the luckiest man in the world and marry me?
00:06:22Allie? Allie?
00:06:26Really leaving me to sweat here.
00:06:28And this suit is way too expensive for that.
00:06:30The most eligible bachelor in the country is proposing to me.
00:06:34So why am I thinking about Craig?
00:06:36He was a jerk and a liar and I need to move on with my life.
00:06:43Of course I'll marry you.
00:06:52This ring must have cost a fortune.
00:06:56You're so lucky.
00:06:58When's the wedding?
00:06:59Ned wants to get married as soon as possible.
00:07:02Oh, you know, Allie would love a hot tea.
00:07:08We have a problem.
00:07:09And that is?
00:07:10You're already married to a Craig Brody.
00:07:19He never signed the divorce papers?
00:07:22So you're still married?
00:07:26He was my high school sweetheart.
00:07:29We got married.
00:07:32But it didn't work out.
00:07:33I thought he had signed the divorce papers.
00:07:35You thought?
00:07:36Yes.
00:07:36Allie, the election is in six weeks.
00:07:39This could ruin my campaign.
00:07:41Just imagine the headlines.
00:07:42Senator's fiancee.
00:07:43Already a wife?
00:07:44I will get him to sign the papers.
00:07:46You better.
00:07:48Or there won't be a future for us, Allie.
00:07:53I gotta take this.
00:07:54It's my campaign manager.
00:07:55But this is important.
00:07:57Yeah, so is this.
00:08:01Clarence.
00:08:02What's going on, buddy?
00:08:03Talk to me.
00:08:08Motherfucker.
00:08:09I never thought I'd hear from you again, hon.
00:08:28Thanks for meeting me here, Trista.
00:08:37So, you really ended it with her.
00:08:39What does it look like?
00:08:42Yeah.
00:08:44She's really gone.
00:08:46Good.
00:08:46Good.
00:08:47So, there's this romantic movie playing at Cinema Six.
00:08:50I thought me and you can go and watch and we can cuddle.
00:08:54We're not going anywhere together, Trista.
00:08:57My heart still belongs to Allie.
00:08:59And it always will.
00:09:02I don't understand.
00:09:03Sometimes, when you truly love someone,
00:09:08you have to let them go.
00:09:11No matter how much it hurts.
00:09:12I hate you, Allie Brody!
00:09:31Your call has been forwarded to an automatic...
00:09:35Fine.
00:09:37You want me to come after you, Craig Brody?
00:09:39I will.
00:09:51Leave the bag.
00:09:52I'll be five minutes.
00:10:09It's been seven years, Craig Brody, and you broke my heart.
00:10:16Somehow, the peace is still beat for you.
00:10:25Allie!
00:10:27What are you doing here, Allie?
00:10:29Well, someone never signed the divorce papers, so we're still married.
00:10:34Sign the papers, Craig.
00:10:35I can't sign them.
00:10:38You can't?
00:10:39It's... complicated.
00:10:41What? Then let me make it simple.
00:10:44I'm supposed to get married to, God, the man of my dreams, in six weeks.
00:10:48Only, the funny thing is, my ex-husband never signed the divorce papers!
00:10:54You're engaged.
00:10:55Yes, Craig! Or did you think I would never move on from you?
00:10:59Sign the papers!
00:11:00I can't sign them.
00:11:02Why not?
00:11:03There's something I have to tell you.
00:11:05Mommy!
00:11:07Oh, oh, ah.
00:11:13I can't sign them.
00:11:15Why not?
00:11:16Because we have a daughter together, and I never told you.
00:11:19You're finally approved.
00:11:28After all this time.
00:11:31Do you even remember?
00:11:37We're sorry.
00:11:39You have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:11:43Mommy!
00:11:45I'm sorry, but, um, I'm not your mommy.
00:11:49Yes, you are.
00:11:50You are my mommy.
00:11:51Tell her, Daddy.
00:11:52Uh...
00:11:53Uh, Craig?
00:11:54What is she talking about?
00:11:55Natalie, why don't you go grab the nests?
00:11:57Because I said we'd go catch bullfrogs, remember?
00:11:59Okay.
00:12:00Is Mommy coming with us?
00:12:02No, Mommy and Daddy need to have a chat.
00:12:04All right?
00:12:04It's okay, Daddy.
00:12:09You want to tell me what the hell is going on?
00:12:10Well...
00:12:17Allie didn't come here to get back together.
00:12:19She came here to divorce me, and I have to let her move on.
00:12:28I tracked you down in the library in New York, and you were there with another guy.
00:12:34I...
00:12:36You looked happy.
00:12:38You looked free.
00:12:50Well?
00:12:50Um, you...
00:12:53You know, kids.
00:12:55Active imagination.
00:12:56She thinks every woman who comes on the farm is her mom.
00:12:59All right, listen, just leave the papers on the counter and I'll sign them.
00:13:03I have a flight back to New York in three hours,
00:13:05and I am not leaving here without these papers signed.
00:13:08Well, I'm not signing them until I read them over first.
00:13:11Why, Craig?
00:13:13It's not like you have anything that I want.
00:13:15What do you have that I could possibly want?
00:13:19I'm ready, Daddy.
00:13:21Okay, um, I promise I'll sign them, okay?
00:13:24I know better than to trust your promises, Craig.
00:13:26I got one for you too, Mommy.
00:13:28Uh...
00:13:29Oh, God.
00:13:30So, Miss Allie is going back to New York, so it's just gonna be you and me and get up.
00:13:34Like always.
00:13:35Okay.
00:13:37I'm sorry.
00:13:38Just leave them in the living room.
00:13:40I'll sign them.

00:20:03Okay, Daddy.
00:20:08Ow!
00:20:08Oh, my God.
00:20:21Greg, I'm engaged to someone else.
00:20:31You're also married to me.
00:20:36How could this get any messier?
00:20:38I should go.
00:20:45Hey.
00:21:01Hey.
00:21:03So, I found the divorce papers.
00:21:08Natalie!
00:21:08I think she wants to keep us married.
00:21:11Would that be such a bad thing?
00:21:19Hello!
00:21:20I brought scones!
00:21:23What the hell are you doing here?
00:21:28Craig and Trista are still together?
00:21:31I mean, hi, baby.
00:21:33I hope I'm not interrupting anything.
00:21:36What a pleasant surprise, Holly.
00:21:39Bye.
00:21:39Uh, excuse me.
00:21:44What the fuck are you doing here?
00:21:47It's none of your business.
00:21:49Actually, where Craig's concerned, it is.
00:21:52So, you and Craig are still together?
00:21:58We're not going anywhere together, Trista.
00:22:01My heart still belongs to Hallie, and it always will.
00:22:04Still together?
00:22:07Why, of course we're still together.
00:22:09We've been inseparable.
00:22:10Ever since that day at the airport, the day that Craig chose me over you, don't tell me you've forgotten.
00:22:17How could I?
00:22:18It was the worst day of my life.
00:22:19Oh, it's not hard to hear that.
00:22:20Because it was a pretty good day for me.
00:22:21I'm sure it was.
00:22:22Listen, if you're here to win Craig back, it's too late.
00:22:23Because I'm pretty sure he's planning on proposing to me.
00:22:24Any day now.
00:22:25So, I need you to get your skinny little ass out of my town.
00:22:26Okay?
00:22:27Come here.
00:22:28Take a pastry for the bread.
00:22:29I insist.
00:22:30Eat it.
00:22:31Oh my god.
00:22:32Because it's the closest you'll get to tasting Craig's mouth ever.
00:22:34Oh my god.
00:22:35Oh my god.
00:22:36Oh my god.
00:22:37Oh my god.
00:22:38Oh my god.
00:22:39Oh my god.
00:22:40Oh my god.
00:22:41Oh my god.
00:22:42You New York bitch.
00:22:55Oh my god.
00:22:58Oh my god.
00:23:01Oh my god.
00:23:07Oh my god.
00:23:10You think you can just waltz back in here and pick up where you left off?
00:23:14Craig will always choose me over you.
00:23:21What the hell is going on?
00:23:23Help! Help! My ankle! My ankle!
00:23:27That crazy bitch!
00:23:30Like I said, he will always choose me over you.
00:23:34Are you okay?
00:23:36Why are you asking her? I'm the one who's injured.
00:23:41All I did was offer her a scone and then she called it dog food and then she kicked me.
00:23:49Poor little thing, you got scone all over you.
00:23:53It's okay, Hallie. I forgive you. Even if you did break my leg.
00:23:57I didn't touch you.
00:23:59I need to put your petty jealousy aside. Craig divorced you for a reason.
00:24:03And coming back here to diaper him back is just pathetic.
00:24:08Actually, I didn't divorce Hallie. She's still my wife.
00:24:13What?
00:24:16Hallie is still my wife.
00:24:18Which means you just insulted her in her own house.
00:24:21So please leave, Trista.
00:24:24Wait, baby. This is just one big misunderstanding.
00:24:27You heard my daddy get out of our house before we call the cops.
00:24:33Oh my god, ew. What is that disgusting creature?
00:24:37I'm gonna vomit.
00:24:39Good job, Lucy.
00:24:40You know what? I should go.
00:24:42Hallie.
00:24:47It was nice meeting you, Natalie.
00:24:50I'm sorry.
00:24:51I'm sorry.
00:24:58Lulu. Call me back.
00:25:01Hallie.
00:25:03You know, I never understood why he left me for Trista.
00:25:06Of all people, you knew I couldn't stand her.
00:25:09That's why I didn't.
00:25:11Because I knew it would hurt the most.
00:25:14God, seeing her again just reminded me of the worst day of my life.
00:25:19Hallie.
00:25:21There's something I need to tell you about Trista.
00:25:26I don't want to talk about Trista anymore, okay?
00:25:28I have to take this.
00:25:30Lulu, can you email me another copy of the divorce papers ASAP?
00:25:33Another copy?
00:25:34What happened to the originals?
00:25:36It's a long story.
00:25:40Can you do it?
00:25:41It's Saturday.
00:25:43City Hall's closed until Monday.
00:25:45You're gonna need a certified copy.
00:25:46I think you're gonna have to stay the weekend there, boss.
00:25:49I hope that's not a big problem.
00:25:52No.
00:25:53Uh, of course not.
00:25:55Well, looks like I am staying until Monday.
00:25:58Until I can get a new copy of the divorce papers.
00:26:00God, I don't have anything.
00:26:02Not a change of clothes, not even a toothbrush.
00:26:04Can you just drive me to the store?
00:26:06Okay.
00:26:07Okay.
00:26:09Hey, Miss Hallie is staying.
00:26:16No.
00:26:17No.
00:26:18No.
00:26:19No.
00:26:28Stop looking at him like that, Hallie.
00:26:31You can't have feelings for him.
00:26:32Even if he is your husband.
00:26:33I can't believe how bad the town looks.
00:26:48When the factory closed, half the stores went within.
00:26:51Well, at least Martha's Diner is still here.
00:26:54God, Martha May makes the best burgers in the world.
00:26:58Yeah.
00:27:00Remember our crazy dream?
00:27:02You know, fix this place up?
00:27:03Of course I do.
00:27:05So?
00:27:07You probably have big plans after graduation.
00:27:10I'm applying to an architecture program in Paris.
00:27:14I doubt I'll get it, though.
00:27:15It's really competitive.
00:27:16Of course you will.
00:27:17I mean, they'd be fools not to take you.
00:27:21You think so?
00:27:22Oh, yeah.
00:27:23I know so.
00:27:25Well, after that, I want to come back here.
00:27:27Fix this town up.
00:27:28I am pretty good with a hammer.
00:27:31I need an assistant.
00:27:32How about a partner?
00:27:38Sounds perfect.
00:27:40Man, I could really go for a burger right now.
00:27:44I have an idea.
00:27:47Where are you taking me, Craig Brody?
00:27:52A picnic.
00:27:54Just like old times.
00:27:56Allow me.
00:28:06I hate you, Hallie!
00:28:11Wow, it's just like in high school.
00:28:14Still looks the same, doesn't it?
00:28:17And feels the same.
00:28:20I love you, Hallie Bildner.
00:28:22I want you to know I will never, ever hurt you.
00:28:27I'm so sorry for hurting you, Hallie.
00:28:32Natalie and I were supposed to eat these on our fishing trip.
00:28:36You?
00:28:37I don't think Sheila forgave me.
00:28:38Triangles.
00:28:42Just the way you tell me.
00:28:44It's Natalie's favorite way to eat them too.
00:28:47Oh, I have to take this.
00:28:50Hey!
00:28:51Hallie!
00:28:52The press wants to know why we haven't been seen together.
00:28:54They think we broke up.
00:28:55You need to get back here right now.
00:29:02I can't yet.
00:29:03I need to get new divorce papers and city hall is closed until Monday.
00:29:07New divorce papers?
00:29:08What?
00:29:09Your location says you're at your old high school.
00:29:11What the hell is going on?
00:29:13It's... complicated.
00:29:16No, it is not complicated.
00:29:19Okay, look.
00:29:20I am pulling in a favor from the governor.
00:29:23We're going to get those papers expedited and we are going to force that husband of yours into signing them if we have to.
00:29:28I need you on the next flight back in an hour.
00:29:32In a couple?
00:29:33Yeah.
00:29:34That's not going to be a problem, is it?
00:29:38Of course not.
00:29:43I have to go.
00:29:47You wouldn't mind taking me to the airport, would you?
00:29:50Of course not.
00:29:58Just...
00:30:00Sign the papers when you get them, Craig.
00:30:02Okay?
00:30:03It's the least you can do.
00:30:05This is my last chance to tell her the truth.
00:30:09Well...
00:30:11Goodbye.
00:30:12I guess.
00:30:14No, Craig.
00:30:15Oh, I'm done waiting.
00:30:18It's time for me to move on.
00:30:23Hello?
00:30:25What?
00:30:26Are you sure?
00:30:29Okay.
00:30:30Okay.
00:30:31Um...
00:30:32Um, it's...
00:30:33My father.
00:30:34He's...
00:30:35Had a stroke.
00:30:36He's at the community hospital.
00:30:37Oh, come on.
00:30:38I'll drive you.
00:30:41Unless you're getting on that flight.
00:30:43No, uh...
00:30:44No, of course not.
00:30:45Okay, good, good, good.
00:30:46Come on.
00:30:49What's going on?
00:30:51The neighbor found him this morning.
00:30:52On the lawn.
00:30:53Hallie.
00:30:54I didn't expect to see you here.
00:30:56Is he going to be okay?
00:30:57We're doing the best we can, but it's...
00:30:59Difficult, considering his condition.
00:31:02His condition?
00:31:04Your father is dying, Hallie.
00:31:05Of kidney failure.
00:31:10How long does he have?
00:31:12A couple weeks.
00:31:13Maybe a month.
00:31:14I hope we're planning on sticking around this time.
00:31:18Excuse me.
00:31:19I had no idea.
00:31:24You didn't?
00:31:25When's the last time you saw him?
00:31:31Seven years ago.
00:31:38Hallie.
00:31:40Craig's divorcing me.
00:31:41He's been cheating on me.
00:31:42I knew that bastard wasn't good enough for you.
00:31:46But at least you found out before he followed you to Paris.
00:31:50No, I'm not going to Paris.
00:31:52I can't get on that plane.
00:31:54What?
00:31:56Craig was right.
00:31:57I'm not...
00:31:58I'm not a real architect.
00:31:59Everyone's gonna laugh at me.
00:32:01You get on that plane, Hallie.
00:32:03But, Daddy, I...
00:32:05If you come back now, you'll be a laughing stock.
00:32:07You'll be a divorced loser.
00:32:09No one will want you.
00:32:10Not Craig.
00:32:13Not even me.
00:32:16Daddy?
00:32:17You get on that plane, Hallie.
00:32:20I never want to see you again.
00:32:21You are a disgrace.
00:32:22Nobody's ever been so mean to me.
00:32:37Except you, that is.
00:32:40God, it's like the two of you were in cahoots.
00:32:43Should I tell her that we were?
00:32:45If I tell her the truth, she'll never forgive her dying father.
00:32:51It didn't work out for the best, though.
00:32:54I mean, look at the life you've built for yourself.
00:32:57You deserve more than this small town.
00:33:00You and my father certainly made it easy to leave.
00:33:05What's going on?
00:33:07The power grid has been happening for weeks.
00:33:09Natalie?
00:33:15Daddy?
00:33:17I'm scared.
00:33:19It's dark and there's someone outside.
00:33:21I'll be right there.
00:33:22Keep the doors locked.
00:33:24I have to go.
00:33:25No, I'm coming with you.
00:33:26Hallie, this isn't something that...
00:33:27I'm coming with you.
00:33:28Okay.
00:33:29Okay, come on.
00:33:32Natalie?
00:33:34Oh my god.
00:33:35Oh my god.
00:33:36Oh my god.
00:33:37Oh my god.
00:33:40I was so scared.
00:33:42It's okay.
00:33:43It's okay.
00:33:44You're okay.
00:33:45Must have been raccoons.
00:33:48Broken through the window.
00:33:50Probably those scones, huh?
00:33:52Yeah.
00:33:53I'm so sorry for leaving you alone for so long.
00:33:56Oh, it's my fault.
00:33:57No, no, no, no.
00:33:58I was happy to help, but...
00:34:01I think you missed your flight.
00:34:03So you're saying we can watch a movie together?
00:34:09I, uh...
00:34:10Yes we can.
00:34:14Miss Haley, come closer.
00:34:21Daddy, come closer.
00:34:25Isn't this great?
00:34:26Just the three of us.
00:34:28Okay.
00:34:31This sprinkle always makes my daddy fall asleep.
00:34:33and let Daddy fall asleep.
00:34:35Oh, my God.
00:35:05I love you, Allie Brody.
00:35:12Why does this feel so right?
00:35:19He's still my husband, and I know every freckle on his body.
00:35:24But no, I'm divorcing him and marrying someone else.
00:35:29Oh, my God.
00:35:37Oh, my God.
00:35:39Oh, my God.
00:35:41Allie.
00:35:42Mommy and Daddy, I made breakfast.
00:35:48Do you like it?
00:35:56I made pancakes.
00:35:58They are excellent, sweetie.
00:36:02Mm-hmm.
00:36:03This is what families do.
00:36:04They eat breakfast together.
00:36:05What's up?
00:36:16There's some stupid birthday invitation.
00:36:19All the kids from school will be there, but I'm not going.
00:36:22Why not?
00:36:22Because everyone always says, if I had a mom, she'd help me pick up better gifts.
00:36:29And they say I'm just a momless loser.
00:36:32You are not a momless loser, Natalie.
00:36:36And don't let anyone make you feel less than you are.
00:36:38I grew up without a mom, too, you know.
00:36:44And it was hard.
00:36:46But I was always able to rely on my dad, just like you can.
00:36:54And by the way, your dad is worth a thousand movies.
00:37:00That's true.
00:37:00She checked.
00:37:03So go to that party with your head held high.
00:37:05No one can take your power from you unless you let them.
00:37:13Okay, Miss Allie.
00:37:14I'll go to the party.
00:37:15Thanks.
00:37:22Oh, no.
00:37:24Excuse me.
00:37:25Um, I have to take this.
00:37:32I see you got my messages.
00:37:35Delete that photo, Trista.
00:37:37Oh, which one?
00:37:38Because I have plenty.
00:37:42What's the problem?
00:37:44A rich fiancé isn't enough for you, so you have to come back and seduce your husband, too.
00:37:48I didn't come here to get back with Craig, Trista.
00:37:51I came here to divorce him.
00:37:53Really?
00:37:54Then prove it.
00:37:56Walk away now and leave this town for good.
00:37:58Otherwise, these photos would go to the senator.
00:38:05I could ruin you, Hallie.
00:38:08So don't mess with my life, and I won't mess with yours.
00:38:11Hey.
00:38:18Hey.
00:38:19Everything okay?
00:38:21Fine.
00:38:22Who are you talking to?
00:38:24Oh, uh, my, uh, fiancé's lawyer.
00:38:27He'll be by with new divorce papers.
00:38:30Um, I have to go.
00:38:32Right now?
00:38:33Yes.
00:38:34I'm sorry, but yes.
00:38:35Can you call me a cab?
00:38:36Hallie.
00:38:37Call me a cab, Craig.
00:38:39Okay.
00:38:42My plan didn't work, Lucy.
00:38:44I guess Mommy isn't in love with Daddy after all.
00:38:57Martha May?
00:38:58Hallie Builder, as I live and breathe!
00:39:01Oh!
00:39:02Oh, how are you so skinny?
00:39:03I thought that city of yours had a restaurant on every block.
00:39:07Oh, well, they do, but none of them make a burger as good as you do.
00:39:10Oh, well, that's nice to know I'll be remembered fondly, at least.
00:39:14What?
00:39:14Don't tell me you're shutting down.
00:39:16Yeah, I don't have a choice.
00:39:17Rent's gone up, and I can't afford the place anymore.
00:39:20No.
00:39:21No, there must be something I can do.
00:39:23Mayor Diggle, shut it down.
00:39:27Mayor Diggle.
00:39:31Dirk, I can't believe you're shutting down Martha's Diner.
00:39:34It's a town institution.
00:39:35Is it?
00:39:37Or are you just upset about it because you and your boyfriend, Craig, used to go there?
00:39:41This isn't high school anymore, Dirk.
00:39:43And this isn't a game.
00:39:45What is it going to take for you to leave the diner alone?
00:39:48Well, you know I've always liked you, so...
00:39:52How about you and me handle this privately?
00:39:56I'll pay you.
00:39:57Twelve months' rent.
00:39:59In advance.
00:40:02Listen, you think I want your money?
00:40:04No.
00:40:04I had something more interesting in mind.
00:40:07You!
00:40:07You're disgusting!
00:40:09Listen, Craig was here to save you last time, but he's not here now.
00:40:13Looks like you're all alone, Hallie.
00:40:15No!
00:40:15Let go of my wallet!
00:40:26Well, you two are under arrest for assaulting the mayor.
00:40:32You know the drill.
00:40:34This is just like how I used to arrest you when you was back in high school.
00:40:37You know what I'm saying?
00:40:38Oh.
00:40:45Wife, huh?
00:40:48Some habits are hard to break.
00:40:51God, this is so not funny.
00:40:54Ned is running for senator.
00:40:55What will this look like if anyone finds out?
00:40:57And who's going to check a county jail in a nowhere town?
00:41:01I should have never come back here.
00:41:02I should have sent my assistant.
00:41:04I should have hired a lawyer!
00:41:05Then why didn't you?
00:41:07I think you wanted to see me.
00:41:10In your dreams.
00:41:11I have moved on to bigger and better things.
00:41:14Yeah, I heard about that.
00:41:16That neighborhood you shut down put 6,000 people out of work.
00:41:19And the complex I built brought back 10,000 jobs.
00:41:23Yeah, for Ivy Leaguers and corporate types.
00:41:26What about the blue collars?
00:41:28What about the people you came from?
00:41:30I've tried to forget where I came from.
00:41:33Okay, isn't that what you wanted when you told me I don't belong here?
00:41:36I shouldn't have said that.
00:41:37No, you were right.
00:41:39I'm not the same girl you married.
00:41:42I've built a life, a career.
00:41:46I should thank you.
00:41:47Because I couldn't have done it without you.
00:41:50All right, lovebirds.
00:41:52Your bail's been posted.
00:41:54You're free to go.
00:41:56Bail by who?
00:41:59Hey, Howls.
00:42:00Ned.
00:42:08Hey, Howls.
00:42:09Ned.
00:42:13So, you must be Craig Brody.
00:42:16The man who couldn't even sign a simple divorce paper.
00:42:19And you must be Ned Vogel.
00:42:21The man who thinks money can solve everything.
00:42:24Yeah, well, my money got you out of jail.
00:42:27Didn't it?
00:42:27I didn't ask to be bailed out.
00:42:29Hmm.
00:42:30Well, you can think of it as the government working for you.
00:42:33Well, you can shove your government up your silver spoon.
00:42:36Guys, please, stop.
00:42:38No, you're right.
00:42:40I'm not here to argue with a man who's holding on to the past.
00:42:46We got the divorce papers expedited.
00:42:48So, you can sign them, Craig.
00:42:52This nonsense has gone on long enough.
00:42:55Can I really divorce Hallie without her knowing about her own daughter?
00:43:00Sign the papers.
00:43:04Or we take you to court.
00:43:07But I gotta tell you, my lawyer's a shark.
00:43:10Say something, Hallie.
00:43:13Say something to stop this.
00:43:16Sign the papers, Craig.
00:43:19Let me go.
00:43:20It's the least you can do.
00:43:29Wonderful.
00:43:30We will get these filed at the town hall.
00:43:33And you will be divorced in an hour.
00:43:37This nonsense has gone on long enough.
00:43:40It's time for you to finally move on with your life, Hallie.
00:43:46Well, are you coming?
00:43:49Yes, of course.
00:43:52Bye.
00:43:53That is who she ended up with.
00:44:03I always thought it'd be you.
00:44:05You know, sometimes things don't work out the way we want them to.
00:44:11Hallie, what were you thinking?
00:44:13Jail?
00:44:14Are you trying to ruin my campaign?
00:44:17No.
00:44:18No, this has nothing to do with you.
00:44:20You are going to be my wife.
00:44:24Everything you do reflects on me.
00:44:28Now, are there any other skeletons I should know about?
00:44:32No.
00:44:41Nothing.
00:44:41Nothing.
00:44:42This town is just how you described it.
00:44:50Low class, run down, depressing.
00:44:54It isn't that bad.
00:44:58Those are your words, Hallie.
00:45:00What's gotten into you?
00:45:01I don't know.
00:45:02Um, just being back here.
00:45:07Should I remind you how lucky you are to have gotten out?
00:45:11Last signature, Miss Bilner.
00:45:13And you'll be free and clear to be the wife of Aseni.
00:45:15Okay.
00:45:27Let's go.
00:45:32Fair wages, fair pay.
00:45:34We want you to contract today.
00:45:35Let us through.
00:45:36No one gets in or out today.
00:45:38Town workers on strike.
00:45:40We need to get these filed.
00:45:42We have a flight to catch in 30 minutes.
00:45:44Sorry, we can't do it.
00:45:49There you are, Mommy.
00:45:53Mommy?
00:45:57I knew you wanted to leave without me, Mommy.
00:46:01Mommy, you two have a kid together?
00:46:03No, no, no, of course not.
00:46:04Natalie, come on.
00:46:05Miss Hallie has to go.
00:46:07No, no!
00:46:09I'm so sorry.
00:46:11I hate you.
00:46:11I hate both of you.
00:46:15Another reason why I'm glad I don't have kids.
00:46:17Look, we need to get these signed.
00:46:19What's it going to cost me to make it happen?
00:46:22Whoa!
00:46:23Is this a city senate official bribing a city employee?
00:46:30You see, I have my fair share of scandals, but this...
00:46:33This is bad.
00:46:33Holly, I see you got a fancy new fiancée.
00:46:40What happened to your husband?
00:46:41He's still locked away in jail.
00:46:43I think you mean soon-to-be ex-husband.
00:46:46Ah.
00:46:47Looks like your father got what he always wanted.
00:46:49You and Craig finally divorced.
00:46:52What do you mean what my father wanted?
00:46:57What do you mean what my father wanted?
00:47:00Wait, man.
00:47:01Craig never told you...
00:47:02Fair way to spare.
00:47:03Fair way.
00:47:03Hey!
00:47:04Keep it down.
00:47:05All right?
00:47:05Or I will write you up for a noise violation.
00:47:08How about you pay us what we're owed and not waste our tax dollars on fancy new fire trucks
00:47:14and cocktail parties?
00:47:16Mayor Sullivan never would have done anything.
00:47:18All right, listen.
00:47:19Mayor Sullivan is not in charge anymore.
00:47:21I am.
00:47:22All right?
00:47:23So please just keep it down.
00:47:25Fair way to spare pay.
00:47:26All right, keep it down.
00:47:27Fair way to spare pay.
00:47:30I'll sign that paper for you.
00:47:33Yeah.
00:47:33All right, good.
00:47:36Where's the rest of it?
00:47:37What?
00:47:38Well, I can't sign this without a custody agreement.
00:47:41A custody agreement?
00:47:43Sure, this child is just as much Hallie's as she is Craig's.
00:47:48You lied to me.
00:47:50No, no.
00:47:51No, I didn't know.
00:47:52I swear.
00:47:54How is this even possible?
00:47:56Well, she's adopted.
00:47:57I mean, I did the paperwork myself.
00:47:59You listed as parent number one.
00:48:00Geez, I would have thought he would have told you about it by now.
00:48:03This is not a good thing.
00:48:05A husband is one thing, but a child.
00:48:08If this gets out, I am sunk.
00:48:09Right.
00:48:10A messy custody battle never sits well with voters.
00:48:12Who said anything about a custody agreement?
00:48:15Hallie doesn't even want the kid, right, Hallie?
00:48:17I mean, you barely even know the child.
00:48:20She'll give out custody right now.
00:48:21Where do we sign?
00:48:21It's not that simple.
00:48:23In a case like this, when a child's involved, both parties have to attend a parenting class.
00:48:28The next one starts tomorrow.
00:48:30Tomorrow?
00:48:30I do not have time for this.
00:48:33I have to get back to New York before the press starts asking questions.
00:48:38Go.
00:48:39Go.
00:48:40I'll get this sorted out.
00:48:41Fine.
00:48:42Take care of this child.
00:48:45End this marriage.
00:48:46Quickly and quietly.
00:48:54Hallie.
00:48:54No.
00:48:55You were just going to let me divorce you, never knowing that Natalie's my daughter?
00:49:00Shh.
00:49:07The adoption went through after you left.
00:49:11You didn't think I deserved to know?
00:49:13You could have called, written anything.
00:49:17I tried.
00:49:18What?
00:49:22And you were there with another guy.
00:49:24You looked happy.
00:49:27You looked free.
00:49:29Seems you don't need me and Natalie anymore.
00:49:31And that's why you never told me that I had a daughter?
00:49:36You looked like you'd moved on.
00:49:39Moved on?
00:49:40It took me years to move on.
00:49:46And honestly, I don't know if I ever have.
00:49:52Forget it.
00:49:54It doesn't matter now anyway.
00:49:58Here.
00:50:02Parenting class.
00:50:05We need to take it in order to get divorced.
00:50:08Custody.
00:50:10Co-parenting.
00:50:12Legally, Natalie is just as much mine as she is yours.
00:50:15You haven't spent any time with her.
00:50:17You didn't raise her.
00:50:19I know.
00:50:20And whose fault is that?
00:50:23Class is at 8 a.m.
00:50:24Don't be late.
00:50:30I knew Miss Haley was my mommy.
00:50:32I knew Miss Haley was my mommy.
00:50:37Dad?
00:50:42Maya, what's going on?
00:50:51Daddy!
00:50:53He's okay.
00:50:54He's stabilized.
00:50:55Your old man's a fighter, Holly.
00:50:58And clearly he's fighting to see you again.
00:51:02No fighting to see me?
00:51:04No, if anything, he'd be pissed to know I'm back.
00:51:08My dad hates me.
00:51:10That's not possible.
00:51:11Holly, he talks about you all the time.
00:51:14He does?
00:51:15Yep.
00:51:16Every Monday and Thursday at dialysis.
00:51:18That's how I know about your fancy job.
00:51:21And your fancy boyfriend.
00:51:24None of this makes any sense.
00:51:27Holly, are you okay?
00:51:28Yeah, today's just been a lot.
00:51:34Maya, did you know that Natalie's my daughter?
00:51:42My shift ends in five minutes.
00:51:44Do you want to grab a drink?
00:51:47Craig has never revealed who Natalie's mother was.
00:51:51But he's never been with anyone since you, so we figured...
00:51:54Wait a second.
00:51:55Uh, he's never been with anyone since me.
00:51:59No, he left me for Trista.
00:52:01I saw him.
00:52:02Trista.
00:52:03She's been after him for years, sure.
00:52:05But he'd never touch her with a ten-foot pole.
00:52:07I don't understand.
00:52:09Just send me the divorce papers, okay?
00:52:11Craig!
00:52:13No way.
00:52:15Excuse me, Maya.
00:52:26I need to get to the bottom of this.
00:52:37Good to see you, Hallie.
00:52:38I know the truth.
00:52:40You were never with Trista.
00:52:42So tell me the truth about everything.
00:52:45Right now.
00:52:51Pay me for it.
00:52:53If you win, I'll tell you.
00:53:04Looks like big-stated living hasn't dulled your A-metal.
00:53:07No, if anything, it made me sharper.
00:53:15You two are playing like your lives depend on it.
00:53:24Well, kind of do.
00:53:26If you do that again, I might just have to take you right here on the table.
00:53:41Too bad I'm engaged.
00:53:42What are you playing at, Hallie?
00:53:47I deserve the truth.
00:53:49Why?
00:53:50You came here to divorce me.
00:53:52What good would the truth do?
00:53:54I'll be the one to decide that.
00:53:56You scratched.
00:54:15You scratched.
00:54:23I win.
00:54:25Thank you, ladies.
00:54:27But I gotta go.
00:54:29I have an early start.
00:54:36Maybe I can find some clues in my father's room.
00:54:41Why didn't my father tell me he was sick?
00:54:44And why won't anyone just tell me the truth?
00:54:50Oh my god.
00:54:57This will always belong to Hallie.
00:55:01And so do my heart.
00:55:02What is this doing here?
00:55:10What was this doing in my father's bedroom?
00:55:12Uh, Hallie...
00:55:13Tell me.
00:55:14Why was this in my father's room?
00:55:18Don't tell me you're about to propose, Hallie.
00:55:21Krista?
00:55:22What are you doing here?
00:55:24Surprise!
00:55:25I'm teaching the course.
00:55:27It's time for the two of you to get divorced.
00:55:31I mean, this is what you both want, right?
00:55:34Of course.
00:55:35Of course.
00:55:37Hallie, you are Natalie's mother after all.
00:55:40Yes, but she doesn't know it yet, so please keep this between us.
00:55:44I will always do you a favor, Craig.
00:55:47You know that.
00:55:49Okay.
00:55:49First topic.
00:55:51How to explain to your child why you're not together anymore.
00:55:54Uh, simple.
00:55:56Her father is a lying, manipulative jerk who hid the fact that I had a daughter for five
00:56:00years.
00:56:02Not to mention whatever other secrets he's keeping.
00:56:05And what would you have done if I'd come up to you in the library that day?
00:56:08Hallie, be honest.
00:56:10You're starting a new life somewhere else.
00:56:11Because you made me believe there was nothing left for me here.
00:56:14So what are you going to do?
00:56:16You're going to take Natalie to New York?
00:56:18Maybe.
00:56:20She belongs here.
00:56:22Not in New York with Central Air and no pair.
00:56:26And I will be damned if I let Ned Vogel be my daughter's stepfather.
00:56:31Jealous, Craig.
00:56:33You know, of all the things Ned is, he's never lied to me.
00:56:35Never torn my world apart without so much as an explanation.
00:56:39You want an explanation?
00:56:41Yeah.
00:56:41I'll give you one.
00:56:43I did lie to you that day when I told you that I didn't love you anymore.
00:56:51I'm done here.
00:56:53I knew he was still in love with you.
00:56:55I knew it.
00:56:56You just came here and you ruined everything like that.
00:56:58I knew you would.
00:56:58Ruined what exactly?
00:57:00I know the truth, Trista.
00:57:02You and Craig were never together.
00:57:05And that's about to change, sweetie.
00:57:08Once those divorce papers are finalized,
00:57:10I will have no choice but to choose me.
00:57:12Besides, Natalie needs a mother.
00:57:16You want to be Natalie's mom.
00:57:17Well, not particularly.
00:57:19But I can pretend.
00:57:21At least until I send her off to boarding school.
00:57:22After all these years, her father and I deserve some alone time.
00:57:27I mean, don't you think?
00:57:29Don't you dare.
00:57:31Go back to New York, Hallie.
00:57:36None of this concerns of you anymore.
00:57:38I think I'll go comfort your husband now.
00:57:40Oh, he looks upset.
00:57:46Oh.
00:57:58Oh.
00:58:01Let me out!
00:58:02Somebody!
00:58:03I'm so sorry about that.
00:58:08I didn't realize Hallie would try to provoke you like that.
00:58:11Oh, Hallie was right.
00:58:13I should have told her about Natalie.
00:58:15It was unfair.
00:58:16I need to apologize.
00:58:18Do you?
00:58:18Because you and I both know what Hallie would have chosen all those years ago.
00:58:22And it wouldn't have been you and them.
00:58:23I don't, because I never gave her the chance.
00:58:26I did.
00:58:27What?
00:58:28All those years ago,
00:58:30I told her about Natalie.
00:58:31I don't understand.
00:58:39I care about you, Craig.
00:58:41And I would never, ever lie to you.
00:58:44I told her that you had a daughter together.
00:58:47And she never even tried to contact you.
00:58:50Did she?
00:58:54I'm so sorry I didn't tell you before,
00:58:56but I was just trying to protect you.
00:58:59She said that the last thing that she wanted was a daughter with you.
00:59:02She said that.
00:59:04Yes.
00:59:05In fact, she said that she didn't want any kids at all.
00:59:08Hallie was born to be a mother.
00:59:10That's all she's ever wanted.
00:59:12Is it?
00:59:14This is from the judge.
00:59:16She's planning on giving up full custody.
00:59:19She's going to New York.
00:59:20She has no interest in fighting for you or Natalie.
00:59:23But I do.
00:59:33What are you doing?
00:59:35I'm just trying to help you move on, Craig.
00:59:38Hallie will never choose you.
00:59:41But I will.
00:59:42It's not going to happen, Trista.
00:59:45It's not.
00:59:45Natalie.
00:59:46Natalie needs a mother.
00:59:47You know it and I know it.
00:59:49You need to move on, Craig,
00:59:51and come back to reality.
00:59:52Let me out!
00:59:55Hallie?
00:59:57What did you do to her?
00:59:59Nothing, nothing, nothing!
01:00:00This was a mistake.
01:00:02Having you help me out all those years ago
01:00:04is the biggest regret of my life.
01:00:06It's never going to happen,
01:00:08no matter what happens with me and Hallie.
01:00:10You want to play it like that?
01:00:19So be it.
01:00:25Hi!
01:00:26I'd like to speak to Senator Ned Vogel, please.
01:00:33Are you okay?
01:00:34Don't.
01:00:36Why do you care, Craig?
01:00:38Is everything you tell me a lie?
01:00:40What?
01:00:41I saw you kissing Trista!
01:00:43Don't try and deny it.
01:00:45You told me you loved me.
01:00:48I don't believe a word you say.
01:00:49Hallie, please, please believe me.
01:00:51That was a mistake.
01:00:52The only mistake I ever made
01:00:54was coming back here.
01:00:56I don't know what I thought I'd find.
01:00:59But now I know.
01:01:02I dodged a bullet seven years ago.
01:01:04Hi!
01:01:04I'd like to inform Senator Ned Vogel
01:01:11that his perfect little fiancé
01:01:13is cheating on him
01:01:14with her husband.
01:01:17And don't worry.
01:01:18I have pictures to prove it.
01:01:23No, this isn't a prank phone call.
01:01:25Well, I have proof.
01:01:29What?
01:01:31No, I'm not lying!
01:01:33Hello?
01:01:34Hello?
01:01:35I guess I'll just have to go
01:01:38to the New York Post with this one.
01:01:41You're buried, Hallie.
01:01:45Ned, hi.
01:01:46Hallie, great news.
01:01:48I just got off the phone with my lawyer.
01:01:50He said because you're giving up custody,
01:01:52parenting class is unnecessary.
01:01:53So you could sign the papers today
01:01:55and you'll be divorced by tomorrow.
01:01:58Tomorrow?
01:01:59Yeah.
01:02:00I already got a schedule
01:02:01for a gala Saturday,
01:02:03a fundraising brunch on Sunday.
01:02:05I can't wait to get you back on my arm
01:02:06in that pretty little black dress of yours.
01:02:09Me either.
01:02:12Well, you don't sound very happy.
01:02:13It's just...
01:02:14What about Natalie?
01:02:17My daughter?
01:02:17What are you gonna do, Hallie?
01:02:19Bring the kid with you to New York?
01:02:21Co-parent with your ex?
01:02:22No.
01:02:24Look, if you want to have a baby,
01:02:26we can have a baby.
01:02:27Together.
01:02:27But I'm not gonna raise someone else's kids.
01:02:30Okay?
01:02:31Just sign over the custody
01:02:32and divorce him.
01:02:34Today.
01:02:36There's nothing there for you anymore, Hallie.
01:02:38Not anymore.
01:02:43You're right.
01:02:44There is nothing left for me here.
01:02:47How are you...
01:02:47I'm giving up custody
01:02:48and going back to New York.
01:02:52You win, Craig.
01:02:53Win?
01:02:54You never wanted me to be a part of Natalie's life.
01:02:56Or yours.
01:03:00Well, congratulations.
01:03:01You got your wish.
01:03:02Hallie, please just hear me out.
01:03:04That's not the full story.
01:03:05There is nothing that you can say
01:03:06that will change anything.
01:03:08The damage is done.
01:03:11Let's just...
01:03:12sign the papers
01:03:13and end this marriage.
01:03:14party one agrees to give up full custody.
01:03:20Correct?
01:03:22That's right.
01:03:23Okay.
01:03:24So regarding the parental rights
01:03:25of Natalie Hallie Brody.
01:03:28What?
01:03:28Hallie?
01:03:29Her middle name is Hallie?
01:03:31She's your daughter, too.
01:03:34She's your daughter, too.
01:03:36Hi!
01:03:36She belongs here.
01:03:43I'm not going to raise someone else's kid.
01:03:47Ma'am?
01:03:49Please sign in the dotted line.
01:03:56It's really over.
01:03:57Now for the divorce papers.
01:04:21Is that it?
01:04:22Yes.
01:04:24Congratulations.
01:04:25In 24 hours,
01:04:26you will be ex-husband and wife.
01:04:29It was nice being married to you,
01:04:31Hallie Bovner.
01:04:34Wish I could say the same, Craig Brody.
01:04:42Lulu,
01:04:43I'll be back in the city by tonight.
01:04:46Rebook my meetings and
01:04:47get me a pedicure appointment.
01:04:49Thank God.
01:04:50I thought you were never coming back.
01:04:51But
01:04:52then I remembered.
01:04:54You're Hallie Bovner.
01:04:55Your work is your life.
01:04:58My life.
01:05:00Right.
01:05:04Oh,
01:05:05by the way,
01:05:06did you ever do that favor I asked?
01:05:08Oh,
01:05:08you mean that favor
01:05:09where I went to 50 different toy stores
01:05:11all over the city
01:05:12just for one special kid?
01:05:15Yes,
01:05:16I did.
01:05:17Which,
01:05:18might I ask,
01:05:18who is this special child?
01:05:20My daughter.
01:05:29A monster truck 300?
01:05:31This is the best present ever.
01:05:35Who's next?
01:05:36Damn,
01:05:37why don't you get Natalie's present over with?
01:05:40We all know it's going to be the worst.
01:05:43Here it is.
01:05:44Look how tiny it is.
01:05:45Catch.
01:05:51It's probably a gum wrapper.
01:05:53Or a half-meat-an-apple.
01:05:55She's so poor,
01:05:56she probably can't afford anything else.
01:06:00Guys,
01:06:00be nice.
01:06:01At least if it's not a tree branch,
01:06:03like last time.
01:06:06It was a walking stick,
01:06:07and my dad made it.
01:06:08That's right,
01:06:09your dad.
01:06:10Because where's your mom again?
01:06:12That's right,
01:06:13nowhere.
01:06:17Oops.
01:06:18Hope it wasn't fragile.
01:06:24It's a friendship bracelet.
01:06:26Friendship?
01:06:27We're not friends.
01:06:29That's so sad.
01:06:32I can't believe you actually invited this freak to your party.
01:06:36My mom forced me to.
01:06:38If you had a mom,
01:06:39she'd help you pick out a real present,
01:06:41not this dumb piece of string.
01:06:44I do have a mom.
01:06:46Then,
01:06:46where is she?
01:06:48She lives in New York,
01:06:49and she's a powerful CEO.
01:06:51Why do you make up a story like that?
01:06:53If your mom was a powerful CEO,
01:06:54she would give you better gifts than this.
01:06:59Momless loser.
01:07:01Momless loser.
01:07:03Momless loser.
01:07:05Momless loser.
01:07:07Momless loser.
01:07:09Momless loser.
01:07:12Momless loser.
01:07:14Nobody can take your power away from you,
01:07:17except you.
01:07:18Don't ever forget that.
01:07:19You were wrong, Mommy,
01:07:20and you left me.
01:07:22You know what?
01:07:23Forget this.
01:07:31Hi, I have a delivery for Sam Baker.
01:07:36That's me.
01:07:39These must be for my uncle.
01:07:42He's super rich.
01:07:44Where do you think you're going?
01:07:46I never should have come.
01:07:48I'm getting out of here.
01:07:49Actually,
01:07:50you're going to stay here
01:07:51and watch what real presents look like.
01:07:55Yeah,
01:07:55and maybe next time
01:07:56you'll come up with something better
01:07:58than a stupid piece of string.
01:07:59A pickleball racket?
01:08:01Nintendo switch?
01:08:03A build room bar kit?
01:08:05An e-scooter?
01:08:07A monster truck 400?
01:08:10These must cost a fortune.
01:08:13Uncle Rick is the best.
01:08:16Uh, actually,
01:08:17these gifts are from
01:08:18Natalie's mom.
01:08:23My mommy.
01:08:24She does love me.
01:08:26Wait.
01:08:26This has to be a prank.
01:08:28Natalie is just lying about her mom.
01:08:30She isn't real.
01:08:32Well,
01:08:32someone very real
01:08:33signed for these purchase orders herself.
01:08:35All $15,000 worth of them.
01:08:37$15,000?
01:08:39How rich is she?
01:08:41Like I said,
01:08:42she's a powerful CEO in New York,
01:08:44and she's too busy to care
01:08:46what you small-town losers think.
01:08:49No, wait.
01:08:49No.
01:08:50Where are you going?
01:08:51Uh, it's okay.
01:08:52You can sit next to me.
01:08:53No.
01:08:54Sit next to me.
01:08:56I want to be friends with you
01:08:57if you pay me.
01:08:59Enjoy the presents, loser.
01:09:03And your cake is dry, by the way.
01:09:11Daddy.
01:09:14I don't know if you can hear me,
01:09:16but I wanted you to know
01:09:17I'm going back to New York.
01:09:20Okay?
01:09:21You were right about Craig.
01:09:24He's a liar.
01:09:26And a cheat.
01:09:27And the man I'm about to marry?
01:09:31He's rich.
01:09:33Handsome.
01:09:35Successful.
01:09:36Exactly.
01:09:39The kind of man
01:09:39you would have wanted for me.
01:09:42I'll miss you.
01:09:43Okay?
01:09:46You're running towards something.
01:09:48Back to your life.
01:09:50Go.
01:09:52Your father's in good hands.
01:09:53I promise.
01:09:54Would you look after Natalie?
01:09:56For me.
01:09:57Of course.
01:09:57Thank you, Ms. Bildner.
01:10:16First class is to the left.
01:10:17Thank you so much.
01:10:19Natalie!
01:10:21Natalie!
01:10:21What are you doing here?
01:10:23I'm coming with you to New York.
01:10:25The flight departs in one minute.
01:10:33Come on, Natalie.
01:10:35I'll take you home.
01:10:41Oh, my God.
01:10:44Where'd you find her?
01:10:45She was at the airport.
01:10:47Airport?
01:10:47I wanted to go up to New York City with Mommy.
01:10:51She knows.
01:10:53Craig.
01:10:53Natalie, can you give us a minute?
01:10:58Okay, Daddy.
01:11:00Thank you for bringing her with me.
01:11:02Of course.
01:11:05But, um, before I go,
01:11:07I have a favor to ask.
01:11:09Anything.
01:11:11Find Natalie a mother.
01:11:13Just make sure it's not Trista.
01:11:15Okay?
01:11:18Okay.
01:11:22Okay.
01:11:22After all these years,
01:11:49he never gave up on us.
01:11:51After all these years,
01:11:54he never gave up on us.
01:12:01You probably could have come up with something better.
01:12:03No, it's...
01:12:05perfect.
01:12:08How long have you been working on this?
01:12:11A few years now.
01:12:14Ever since I left?
01:12:17Maybe.
01:12:17But...
01:12:18I couldn't let our dream die just because our marriage did.
01:12:27That crazy dream?
01:12:30It doesn't look so crazy anymore, does it?
01:12:33No, it doesn't.
01:12:35Allie,
01:12:37not a day goes by where I don't think about you.
01:12:39And I know, I know, I know you won't believe a word I say,
01:12:44but I thought maybe you'd believe something you could see.
01:12:48Is that us?
01:12:58Yeah, it is.
01:12:59I love you.
01:13:07And I never stopped.
01:13:10I've missed this for so long.
01:13:28I've wanted this for so long.
01:13:31No.
01:13:32No, we have to stop.
01:13:36The papers are signed, Craig.
01:13:38I'm engaged to someone else.
01:13:41And it's too late to turn the clock back now.
01:13:46Send me a picture when the town's rebuilt, okay?
01:13:48That's the thing.
01:13:50It won't be.
01:13:53What?
01:13:54What do you mean?
01:13:56Got this in the mail today.
01:13:58My plans were approved,
01:13:59but Dirk Diggle bought up all the local contractors,
01:14:03and I can't afford anyone else,
01:14:04so I'm going to have to rescind my offer.
01:14:08No, you can't do that.
01:14:09I have to.
01:14:11I don't have a choice.
01:14:12What if I said I could help?
01:14:19I could help.
01:14:22Go back to New York, Ellie.
01:14:25Don't worry about someone's tiny little dream
01:14:28in a nowhere town.
01:14:30This was our dream, Craig.
01:14:36Besides, you helped me out with their diddlers.
01:14:38She said she's not interested, bro.
01:14:44Now let me help you.
01:14:56Lulu.
01:14:57Um, change of plans.
01:15:00Send all of our best contractors to Franklin, Tennessee.
01:15:03Also, cancel my pedicure appointment.
01:15:04Have you come to withdraw your application, Craig?
01:15:13I knew you couldn't afford it.
01:15:15Well, actually, I just came to give you the deposit.
01:15:19We break ground tomorrow.
01:15:22We.
01:15:23We said we would fix this town up.
01:15:25Mm-hmm.
01:15:26And that is exactly what we're going to do.
01:15:29I never thought I'd see the day
01:15:35where our dream became a reality.
01:15:36No, it was always your dream.
01:15:38I was just happy to help.
01:15:42Lulu!
01:15:43Oh, my God.
01:15:46Wow, boss.
01:15:47No wonder you never came back.
01:15:49You never told me your husband was a stone-cold hot.
01:15:52Oh.
01:15:53Ex-husband.
01:15:55Right.
01:15:55Right.
01:15:56Right.
01:15:56Right.
01:15:56Allie.
01:16:01Ned.
01:16:02Hi.
01:16:04Um, what are you doing here?
01:16:05I told you I would be back next week.
01:16:07You want to tell me what the meaning of this is?
01:16:14You told me there was nothing going on between you two.
01:16:16Are you trying to embarrass me on a national stage?
01:16:20No, um, no.
01:16:21Ned, I am so sorry.
01:16:23I, uh, is your campaign okay?
01:16:25It's fine.
01:16:26For now.
01:16:28Luckily, this is just a mock-up.
01:16:30Post gave it to us before going to press.
01:16:32Get in.
01:16:34I am taking you home.
01:16:36Ned, I told you this project is important.
01:16:40Hallie, you build multi-billion dollar skyscrapers.
01:16:43Not whatever this is.
01:16:45This matters.
01:16:47A sad little shopping mall in a sad little town?
01:16:51Come on, Hallie.
01:16:53You're better than this.
01:16:55What's that supposed to mean?
01:16:58Being back here, it has you confused.
01:17:00You don't know what you want.
01:17:02You don't know who you really are anymore.
01:17:03But this is your past.
01:17:08I am your future.
01:17:10Remember?
01:17:12You still want to marry me?
01:17:15Even after that?
01:17:16Yes.
01:17:16In fact, I want to move the wedding up.
01:17:19Let's get married right now.
01:17:24Let's get married right now.
01:17:26Right now?
01:17:28Um.
01:17:28Excuse me.
01:17:33Hey.
01:17:35Seeing these photos, it made me realize how much you mean to me.
01:17:39I can't lose you, Hallie.
01:17:42I don't want to lose you.
01:17:44Please.
01:17:45Marry me.
01:17:49You're going to marry her?
01:17:51She was cheating on you.
01:17:55Who are you?
01:17:56I'm the woman that took these photos.
01:18:00So, you admit to sabotaging a political campaign.
01:18:03What?
01:18:04No.
01:18:05Ma'am, you're lucky the senator doesn't press charges.
01:18:08Come with me.
01:18:09What?
01:18:09No.
01:18:10No.
01:18:10No.
01:18:11You will not win this one, Hallie.
01:18:13No.
01:18:14Don't touch me.
01:18:16Dad, this all just feels a little fast.
01:18:21Yeah, but is it, Hallie?
01:18:22What are we waiting for?
01:18:26What are we waiting for?
01:18:30I don't know.
01:18:31Quit fucking around and marry me already.
01:18:35What's the rush, Ned?
01:18:36I...
01:18:37The post agreed to kill the cheating story.
01:18:39If we give them something better.
01:18:42Something like...
01:18:43A wedding, for example.
01:18:45You want to marry me for a story?
01:18:50Come on, Hallie.
01:18:51We're going to get married anyway.
01:18:53What difference does it make?
01:18:54Was this whole thing just a publicity stunt?
01:18:59Our engagement?
01:19:01Our relationship?
01:19:02No.
01:19:03Of course not.
01:19:04I love you.
01:19:05Then what's my favorite color, Ned?
01:19:08Oh, come on, Hallie.
01:19:10My favorite flower?
01:19:14My favorite flower?
01:19:16I don't know.
01:19:17Roses?
01:19:17Does it even matter?
01:19:19Yes, it does.
01:19:22I'm sorry, Ned, but I can't marry you.
01:19:28Yes, you can.
01:19:30Because if you don't, I can make your life very difficult.
01:19:34Starting with those big city contracts you just won.
01:19:37I spent years of blood, sweat, and tears to get those contracts.
01:19:41But once I'm elected, I can make them all go poof.
01:19:45I have friends in very high places, Hallie.
01:19:48No, you wouldn't dare.
01:19:50I worked my entire career for those.
01:19:52Well, then the answer is simple.
01:19:55Marry me.
01:19:57We'll lose everything.
01:19:59Come on, Hallie.
01:20:00This is not a difficult choice.
01:20:02You're hurting me.
01:20:03If you think this is pain, you haven't felt anything yet.
01:20:07Neither of you.
01:20:19My suit.
01:20:21My jaw.
01:20:23You broke my face.
01:20:25Good.
01:20:26Looks better that way, in my opinion.
01:20:28I have you arrested for assault a government official.
01:20:31There isn't a cop.
01:20:32Who will side with you over me.
01:20:34Not in this town.
01:20:37And by the way, her favorite color is blue.
01:20:40And her favorite flower, the marigold,
01:20:43is a blooms from spring to fall.
01:20:46There you go.
01:20:48I hope that suit isn't too expensive.
01:20:50This suit is worth more than you make in a year.
01:20:53Isn't that something?
01:20:55It's time for you to leave, Senator.
01:20:57Come on, Hallie.
01:20:59You're not going to give up everything just for some pathetic small-town nobody.
01:21:04Yeah, he may be from a small town, but he is not a nobody.
01:21:09In fact, if I had to choose a son-in-law, I'd pick him over you any day of the week.
01:21:16Daddy!
01:21:19Hallie, I am so sorry for everything.
01:21:22Starting with meddling in your marriage.
01:21:25Meddling?
01:21:25I'm the one that made Craig divorce.
01:21:29I told him if he really loved you, he'd let you go.
01:21:33He did.
01:21:37I thought you deserved more than a small town.
01:21:40More than a local boy like him.
01:21:43She does, sir.
01:21:45Come on, Hallie.
01:21:47He divorced you.
01:21:48He gave up a daughter for you.
01:21:50So what if I want to marry you for a story?
01:21:53People get married for worse reasons.
01:21:55And they get divorced for better ones.
01:21:59How care what you think, old man?
01:22:01Hallie, you're coming with me.
01:22:02You stay away from my daughter.
01:22:04Hallie, I am not leaving.
01:22:07You owe it to me to go through this wedding.
01:22:08I've had about enough of people telling me who I should and shouldn't marry.
01:22:16Get out of here, Ned.
01:22:18It's over between us.
01:22:23Get out of here, Ned.
01:22:25It's over between us.
01:22:28Fine.
01:22:30But I hope you know what you're giving up, Hallie.
01:22:34I most certainly do.
01:22:38It was too big anyway.
01:22:44Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
01:22:46What about me?
01:22:48I'll marry you.
01:22:49I'm sure the Post would love to see me at a wedding gown.
01:22:54And I would look way better than Hallie ever would.
01:22:57Not in a million years.
01:22:58I owe you both an apology for trying to play God.
01:23:15Daddy.
01:23:16Hear me out.
01:23:18When I was in the hospital and hooked up to all those machines, I just kept having the same wonderful dream.
01:23:25This dream where you were still together.
01:23:29This dream where you were both living the life you deserve.
01:23:32I took that future and that life away from you.
01:23:38Hallie.
01:23:39Craig never wanted to divorce you.
01:23:43Hallie.
01:23:44Craig never wanted to divorce you.
01:23:46How?
01:23:48This should be enough.
01:23:50I want her on that plane, alone, whatever it takes.
01:23:56I tried to pay him off.
01:24:00And this is what he did with the money.
01:24:04I've never seen someone work so hard for love.
01:24:07Is this true, Craig?
01:24:10Mm-hmm.
01:24:10Why didn't you just tell me?
01:24:14Because I didn't want you to hate your father or blame him when he just thought he was doing what was right.
01:24:21You were protecting me.
01:24:23That's right.
01:24:25You two are the only family you have left.
01:24:29Unless...
01:24:33You let me be a part of your family again.
01:24:35Now, I know this ring isn't exactly as big as your old one, but it's, um...
01:24:44You can make me the happiest man in the world if you marry me again.
01:24:49Yeah?
01:24:50Yes.
01:24:51Yes, Craig, I'll marry you.
01:24:53Oh, perfect.
01:25:00It always was.
01:25:01Mommy, Daddy, I knew you'd come back together.
01:25:06Oh, she did.
01:25:07Come on.
01:25:07Come on.
01:25:08Up we go.
01:25:10Dale, that wasn't such a crazy dream.
01:25:12I'd like you to meet your granddaughter, Natalie Hallie Brody.
01:25:16My dream came true.
01:25:18Hi, Grandpa.
01:25:20Hallie, this is crazy, but if we run, we can make it to the town clerk before it closes.
01:25:26I do not want to be divorced from you one second longer.
01:25:30Me either.
01:25:30Yeah?
01:25:30Yeah?
01:25:31Okay, what do we think?
01:25:33Who's up for a wedding?
01:25:35Yeah?
01:25:37Yeah?
01:25:38Yeah?
01:25:42Hi.
01:25:44Um, we would like to get remarried.
01:25:47I can't accept your remarriage.
01:25:50That's ridiculous.
01:25:52Uh, what?
01:25:53Why?
01:25:54I can't accept your remarriage.
01:25:56That's ridiculous.
01:25:58Uh, what?
01:25:59Why?
01:25:59Well, because you were never really divorced in the first place.
01:26:03Look right here.
01:26:04You signed your name Hallie Bildner.
01:26:07But your name is, and always has been, Hallie Brody.
01:26:11Will you look at that?
01:26:12Uh, wait, so, um, that means the custody papers?
01:26:18Well, that's, uh, that's void.
01:26:23So, you're still Natalie's parents.
01:26:28Mommy!
01:26:28Daddy, I forgive you.
01:26:35I forgive you.
01:26:44I've got seven years to make up for it.
01:26:55I just want to thank you all for your faith in me, and as your new mayor, I promise to
01:27:14work tirelessly to bring this town back to what it once was, starting with the community
01:27:20center that Craig and Halle so generously built. Thank you. We love you, Mayor Martha.
01:27:28Love you.
01:27:35What do you think of the chocolate chip?
01:27:41Looks like they found a story to replace him with after all.
01:27:50Is there a really baby right there?
01:27:53Yes. We're going to be one big happy family.
