00:00:00Excuse me, what are you doing?
00:00:08I'm opening my apartment door.
00:00:10What does it look like?
00:00:12No, that is my apartment.
00:00:14I just got the keys.
00:00:16Yeah, I think you're mixed up princess.
00:00:20Maybe you're in 105.
00:00:22Nice try.
00:00:24I think I know what my apartment is.
00:00:26I think you're in 105.
00:00:28I'm just...
00:00:30Yeah, I don't think so.
00:00:32Bye-bye now.
00:00:34And good luck with whatever it is you've got going on.
00:00:36Wait!
00:00:48Case in point.
00:00:50What the hell are you doing?
00:00:52Let go of the door, asshole.
00:00:54I am not an asshole. This is my door.
00:00:56No, it is not.
00:00:58Quiet out there. I'm trying to watch the game.
00:01:08Can you tell her this is my apartment?
00:01:10I checked.
00:01:12It seems my husband made a mistake
00:01:14and double leased this apartment
00:01:16to both of you.
00:01:18Okay, well, is there another unit you could give her?
00:01:20Because I'm not leaving.
00:01:22Well, I am not leaving.
00:01:24This is my only available unit.
00:01:26Well, I sincerely hope that you can figure something else out.
00:01:28I will pay double deposit if you let me have this place.
00:01:30Excuse me?
00:01:32Ma'am, I'm serious.
00:01:34You have no idea how badly I need this.
00:01:38Here. Take my credit card.
00:01:48What?
00:01:50How?
00:01:52How?
00:01:54Well, well, well.
00:01:56Can I have the apartment now?
00:01:58No. No.
00:02:00I paid the deposit and got approved.
00:02:02Same as you.
00:02:04Unfortunately, Mr. Rhodes did apply first.
00:02:06Oh, please. Call me Andy.
00:02:10Andy!
00:02:12How could you be this cruel?
00:02:16First, you leave me at the altar
00:02:18and now you're trying to steal our apartment?
00:02:20You know, I really thought that you loved me.
00:02:22Are you too?
00:02:24No, no, no. I don't know this woman.
00:02:26I've never met her before in my life.
00:02:30We celebrated our five-year anniversary in April.
00:02:32Our first date was on the pier.
00:02:34You won me an octopus, Andy.
00:02:36An octo-what?
00:02:38Seriously, I don't know this woman.
00:02:40Ma'am, if he says he doesn't know you,
00:02:42I have to abide by policy and I...
00:02:44It's just...
00:02:46I'm pregnant.
00:02:48You can't abandon me
00:02:50on the streets
00:02:52with a baby on the way.
00:03:00With a baby on the way?
00:03:02No, no, no.
00:03:04You can't believe a word she is saying.
00:03:06She is crazy.
00:03:08Mr. Rhodes, if you can't reconcile with your poor fiancé,
00:03:10I'm going to have to call security.
00:03:12Since you both paid a deposit,
00:03:14the first two months' rent's covered.
00:03:18Okay, who are you?
00:03:20You don't recognize the girl you left at the altar?
00:03:22Really hurts, Andy.
00:03:28Okay, look, I had to do something.
00:03:30Today was my wedding day,
00:03:32and I just really couldn't go through with it,
00:03:34so I ran.
00:03:36Yeah, I kind of gathered that.
00:03:38My credit cards are frozen.
00:03:40My bank account is probably joined, too.
00:03:42Look, it was really an emergency.
00:03:44Okay, what is your name?
00:03:46Corinne.
00:03:48Corinne Carter.
00:03:50Um...
00:03:52Okay, Corinne.
00:03:54You know, you seem really nice and sane and all,
00:03:56but emergency or not,
00:03:58you just manipulated your way into my apartment.
00:04:00Your apartment?
00:04:02Well, you did hear her, right?
00:04:04I did pay half of the rent for the next two months.
00:04:06Oh, well,
00:04:08how are you going to pay that when it's up?
00:04:10You're broke.
00:04:12I will figure it out, okay?
00:04:14Just relax.
00:04:18No, don't.
00:04:20Don't do this, Andy.
00:04:22Look, this is a bad idea. You don't even know her.
00:04:24Why would you feel bad for her? It makes no sense.
00:04:28Hmm.
00:04:34Mm-mm.
00:04:38Um...
00:04:40I think you lost something there.
00:04:42Magic Mike?
00:04:46I think you lost something there.
00:04:48Magic Mike?
00:04:50Oh, on the contrary.
00:04:52I'm making myself at home.
00:04:54This is my apartment,
00:04:56so I can wear or not wear
00:04:58whatever I want.
00:05:00Are you sure you can handle this arrangement?
00:05:02You've never lived with a guy before.
00:05:04You might want to back down.
00:05:06I don't want to make you uncomfortable.
00:05:20Rest assured,
00:05:22despite this tempting face
00:05:26and this nice body,
00:05:28I will be just fine.
00:05:30I will be just fine.
00:05:34The real question
00:05:36is whether you will be.
00:05:38Um...
00:05:40What, uh...
00:05:42What's this book?
00:05:44Well, you would know
00:05:46if it wasn't upside down.
00:05:54I'm cleaning this one!
00:05:56What?
00:05:58I wanted that room!
00:06:00Come on, it gets the good light and everything.
00:06:02It should have been faster done.
00:06:12Hey, Corinne.
00:06:14I heard what happened.
00:06:16I'm so sorry.
00:06:18No, it's okay, Monica.
00:06:20I mean, it was probably for the best.
00:06:22It was my choice after all.
00:06:24That's good to hear.
00:06:26Here's your personal email.
00:06:28Your work email was deactivated.
00:06:30Take a look and sign it when you can.
00:06:32My what?
00:06:34Your severance package.
00:06:36Did your dad not...
00:06:38He's firing me?
00:06:40Oh my god.
00:06:42Corinne, I'm so sorry.
00:06:44I would love to help you, but your dad threatened me.
00:06:46Well, it sounds like him.
00:06:48No, it's okay, Monica.
00:06:50I got an apartment.
00:06:52At least I have somewhere to live.
00:06:54Fine.
00:06:56Ugh, my roommate.
00:06:58He's kind of an asshole, but he's fine.
00:07:00E, you're living with a guy?
00:07:02Yeah, it's a really long story.
00:07:04Remind me to tell you about it at some point.
00:07:06Well, is he hot at least?
00:07:10Yeah, and it makes it kind of worse.
00:07:12Well, you let me know if he tries anything.
00:07:14I'll come over there and teach him a lesson.
00:07:16I've gotta go.
00:07:18I'm really sorry, Corinne. I'll catch you later.
00:07:20Bye.
00:07:24I'm just when I thought it couldn't get any worse.
00:07:36Corinne, hurry up. I need to pee.
00:07:48Sorry, what did you say? It's loud in here.
00:07:50Look, get out.
00:07:52Look, get out. I need to pee.
00:07:56No, just take your time.
00:07:58It's not like the rest of us have bladders or anything.
00:08:00Look, I've got a job interview, and I've got to look my best.
00:08:02Okay?
00:08:08Hello?
00:08:10What are you still doing in here?
00:08:12I am not done with my hair.
00:08:14You can go ahead. I'm not going to look.
00:08:16Are you insane?
00:08:18I can't use the bathroom while you're in it.
00:08:20Wow, I really didn't take you for a prude, Andy.
00:08:24I guess you're just going to have to wait a little bit longer.
00:08:26Are you serious? I'm going to be late for work.
00:08:30Okay, fine.
00:08:32Catch you later.
00:08:34Okay, get it together, Andy.
00:08:36She's just your roommate.
00:08:40Oh my god!
00:08:44Well, Corinne, your experience at the Carlton Group speaks for itself.
00:08:48And with a sharp wit like that,
00:08:50you will fit right in here at TurnTide.
00:08:54Where can you start?
00:08:56I can actually start right now.
00:08:58Excellent. The boss will love you.
00:09:00He has been looking for a decent person
00:09:02to fill this empty position on his team for months.
00:09:06I can introduce you.
00:09:08Wait, that would be perfect.
00:09:10Let's go.
00:09:12Great.
00:09:14Come on in.
00:09:18So, Corinne.
00:09:20Yes.
00:09:22The promising candidate I was telling you about.
00:09:24I just interviewed her,
00:09:26and I think she'll be a perfect fit.
00:09:28I'll leave you guys to it.
00:09:34So this is the interview that you spent an hour preparing for.
00:09:38Well, too bad you won't be getting the job.
00:09:44Well, too bad you won't be getting the job.
00:09:46Wait, that's not fair.
00:09:48I had no idea that this was your ad agency, okay?
00:09:50And you cannot punish me for an innocent mistake.
00:09:54Well, actually, as it is my ad agency,
00:09:56I can do whatever I want.
00:09:58Okay, well then how do you expect me to pay your precious little rent
00:10:00if I don't have a job?
00:10:02It's easy.
00:10:04Go find a job somewhere else.
00:10:06Leave.
00:10:08Ugh!
00:10:16Oh my God!
00:10:20I am so sorry. I was not looking where I was going.
00:10:24Oh.
00:10:26Are you reading Apricots?
00:10:28I love this book. I read it in high school.
00:10:30I really have never met anyone who's actually read it.
00:10:32Oh, um, Ms. Rosenberg.
00:10:34I didn't know you were coming in today.
00:10:36Please, step into my office
00:10:38so we can discuss the rebranding.
00:10:40No worries at all. I was early.
00:10:42I just met your very impressive associate.
00:10:44I feel good about turntive media already.
00:10:48You know, it's so nice to see such bright minds here.
00:10:50Well, actually...
00:10:52Uh, yes. Thank you. This is Corinne.
00:10:54She is the newest addition to our marketing team.
00:10:56It's her first day.
00:10:58It is?
00:11:00It is?
00:11:02Yep.
00:11:04It is.
00:11:06Go wait in the break room. I'll give you a tour in a second.
00:11:08You better treat her nicely, Rhodes.
00:11:10I would steal her from my company in a heartbeat.
00:11:14Hi.
00:11:34Hi. I'm Corinne.
00:11:36I'm new to the team.
00:11:38We saw.
00:11:40You really put on a show out there.
00:11:42Do you need anything, Corinne?
00:11:44Oh, wait. Are you the coffee girl?
00:11:46You know, I would really, really love a matcha latte.
00:11:48We only have coffee, I'm afraid.
00:11:50I'll make you some.
00:11:52I'm a summer. Thank you.
00:11:56So...
00:11:58What were your names again?
00:12:04Lilia.
00:12:06Welcome to turntive media.
00:12:12Uh...
00:12:18Mr. Rhodes would like to see you in his office.
00:12:26Come in.
00:12:34What the hell happened to you?
00:12:36I...
00:12:38It was the coffee machine. Super finicky.
00:12:40Do you mind if I go home and change?
00:12:42You're living out of a duffel bag.
00:12:44Do you have anything to change into?
00:12:46Okay.
00:12:50Here.
00:12:52Take my card.
00:12:54Go get yourself some new clothes.
00:12:56We have a client meeting later tonight.
00:12:58You can't go looking like that.
00:13:00No, I couldn't take your...
00:13:02No, take it. I see it as an investment in company talent.
00:13:04Take it, Corinne.
00:13:06Alright then.
00:13:08So I'll see you back at the apartment
00:13:10and we can go from there?
00:13:12See you.
00:13:14Have fun.
00:13:16I will. Bye.
00:13:36Come on.
00:13:46What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:13:52What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:13:58Who spends
00:14:00$10,000
00:14:02in one afternoon
00:14:04Fuck, Murphy!
00:14:07I'm sorry, did you just say $10,000?
00:14:09Yes! My bank called me. They thought my credit card was stolen.
00:14:12Oh my God.
00:14:13What the hell, Corinne?
00:14:14I'm so sorry. I didn't even look at the tax. I just picked out things that I liked.
00:14:17This is how you shop? At high-end luxury stores without looking at the price?
00:14:22I mean, before you ran away, what were you?
00:14:24Look, I will return everything. I have the receipt, okay?
00:14:27It's somewhere. I promise that this will all be resolved by tomorrow.
00:14:34Corinne, I'm not happy about how this happened, but don't go to the trouble. It's whatever.
00:14:41Now, come on. We have to go meet with that client, so chop-chop.
00:14:45Whatever? You're not mad?
00:14:47I mean, I was when I thought you were taking advantage of me,
00:14:49but it turns out you are just completely financially irresponsible.
00:14:53Hey!
00:14:54Am I wrong?
00:14:55Look, I can return everything, okay?
00:14:58Look, just forget it. It's not a big deal.
00:15:04$10,000 down the drain, and it's just...
00:15:08Whatever?
00:15:11As you like.
00:15:20Apologies for the delay, Mr. Kepner. Rush hour traffic.
00:15:23No matter, boy.
00:15:27Now, who do we have here?
00:15:28Oh, Corinne Carter. I am the new marketing associate with Turntide Media.
00:15:32Brought her along as part of the onboarding process. She'll be shadowing this meeting.
00:15:37If I had known you hire such magnificent specimens at your agency, Rhodes,
00:15:43I'd have given you the deal right then.
00:15:50Well, of course, we would be honored if you would choose us, but...
00:15:54I would hope it's for less superficial reasons, but...
00:15:58I'm assuming you're joking.
00:16:00How about I get us some drinks?
00:16:03Okay.
00:16:07Tell you what, Miss, uh, Taryn, uh, Carla.
00:16:13Have a nightcap with me later, and the deal is yours.
00:16:18Excuse me?
00:16:19Oh, it's a really good deal, honey. It's just one night.
00:16:23You do want to make your boss proud, don't you?
00:16:28Look, I don't know who the fuck you think you are.
00:16:30And you're probably too drunk to even realize, but I am not that kind of girl, okay?
00:16:34I don't play nice with men like you.
00:16:36So why don't you just keep your dirty hands off of me?
00:16:41You let an employee talk to a client like that?
00:16:44Do you own our business or not?
00:16:50Well...
00:16:51Ugh.
00:16:53Ow!
00:16:55Oh, fuck.
00:16:57Ow!
00:16:59You mean, am I gonna let a client talk to an employee like that?
00:17:02And the answer's no!
00:17:04You punched me. You punched me!
00:17:07Do you know who I am, boy?
00:17:09I do now.
00:17:11Let's go.
00:17:22Hey.
00:17:35Oh, shit.
00:17:43Now, to dust.
00:17:52Okay, well, I don't have whatever that is.
00:17:59Hmm.
00:18:08Shit!
00:18:12Okay.
00:18:13What are you doing in my...
00:18:18Oh, my God.
00:18:19What did you do?
00:18:21It was an accident. I barely touched it. It just... It just fell.
00:18:24You ruined the only thing I have left of my first dog?
00:18:27On accident?
00:18:29Oh, my God. I am so sorry.
00:18:32I'm going to sweep it up and...
00:18:33No. No!
00:18:34Okay.
00:18:35Get out. Get out!
00:18:36Get out!
00:18:41Get out!
00:18:43Wait, you can't kick me out! This is my apartment, too!
00:18:46I'll make sure you get the deposit back. Leave!
00:18:49No.
00:18:50Wait, I don't have my phone or wallet or anything, Andy!
00:18:53Look, I can't go anywhere!
00:18:56Andy!
00:19:04I'm sorry, little guy.
00:19:08No more roommates.
00:19:18No more roommates.
00:19:24Was she trying to clean my room?
00:19:41Corinne!
00:19:49Oh.
00:20:04Okay, I guess Lucy, too.
00:20:19Wow, I wonder what happened to her.
00:20:21Sleeping in the office in pajamas?
00:20:23It's a first.
00:20:24Do you think she got kicked out of her apartment by her boyfriend?
00:20:29It's you.
00:20:30It's morning already.
00:20:32Nice pajamas.
00:20:36Leave me alone.
00:20:41Corinne.
00:20:42I'll see you in my office, please.
00:20:49Go home and change.
00:20:53I thought you evicted me.
00:20:55Half of the office has already seen you like this.
00:20:57Don't you want to change?
00:21:08I'm sorry.
00:21:09I'm sorry.
00:21:10I'm sorry.
00:21:11I'm sorry.
00:21:12I'm sorry.
00:21:13I'm sorry.
00:21:14I'm sorry.
00:21:15I'm sorry.
00:21:16I'm sorry.
00:21:17I'm sorry.
00:21:40This is not a good idea.
00:21:42It's just not there yet.
00:21:44Have you guys seen Corinne yet?
00:21:46You mean since this morning?
00:21:48No.
00:21:50How unprofessional.
00:21:57Corinne.
00:22:00Corinne.
00:22:16Corinne?
00:22:17Corinne.
00:22:18Hey, are you okay?
00:22:37Corinne.
00:22:41You're burning up.
00:22:42Why?
00:22:43No, you have a fever.
00:22:46Stay here.
00:22:47I'll get some medicine.
00:22:56Hey.
00:22:57Come on.
00:22:58Take this.
00:23:00Come on.
00:23:08I'll let you sleep.
00:23:11I'm sorry.
00:23:12Just let me stay.
00:23:16I'm sorry.
00:23:41Why am I naked?
00:23:47Um.
00:23:48So, um.
00:23:51Relax.
00:23:52I am familiar with the human body.
00:23:54I know you didn't have one of my own.
00:23:56But you want me to take this off so that we're even?
00:24:00Yeah, no.
00:24:01I've seen enough of you.
00:24:02Thank you very much.
00:24:03Um.
00:24:04Let's just pretend that this never happened, alright?
00:24:09Are you feeling better?
00:24:10I think so.
00:24:12I'm starving.
00:24:13I think so.
00:24:15I'm starving.
00:24:17There's muffins on the counter.
00:24:24You got muffins?
00:24:26They were a gift from a client.
00:24:29Don't eat them all.
00:24:31Uh-huh.
00:24:37Who the hell are you?
00:24:39Who the hell are you?
00:24:40Who the hell are you?
00:24:42What are you doing in Andy's apartment?
00:24:43Are you the maid or something?
00:24:46Excuse you.
00:24:47I live here.
00:24:48And you haven't explained who you are yet.
00:24:50I'm Betty.
00:24:51Andy's fiancé.
00:24:56I'm Betty.
00:24:57Andy's fiancé.
00:24:58Uh, not my fiancé.
00:25:00Betty, just because our parents shook hands on it before we were born,
00:25:03doesn't make it real.
00:25:05Now please, stop stalking me.
00:25:07Well, I wouldn't have to stalk you if you hadn't ghosted me.
00:25:10Oh, damn, this apartment's even dingier than the last one.
00:25:14You ghosted her?
00:25:15Oh, that is so bad.
00:25:19You know, would you have preferred that I file a restraining order?
00:25:21Ooh, that is really bad too.
00:25:24God, I would just gut it now.
00:25:26Oh, you'd love that, wouldn't you?
00:25:28Oh, what? Do you think you were his girlfriend or something?
00:25:33Well, actually, yes.
00:25:35What?
00:25:36Yes, and we are very happy.
00:25:42Well, I guess this apartment came with more than one downgrade.
00:25:44Excuse you.
00:25:46Come on, Andy.
00:25:47Stop playing hard to get.
00:25:48You know we belong together.
00:25:50No.
00:25:51Now leave before I call the police.
00:25:52You're not serious.
00:25:53No, no, no, no, no.
00:25:54You're kidding me.
00:25:59I knew it was weird for the owner of an advertising agency to be in this apartment.
00:26:03How many girls are going to be knocking on our door, Andy?
00:26:10How many girls are going to be knocking on our door, Andy?
00:26:13Shut up.
00:26:14And it's none of your business.
00:26:16My big shot roommate is a playboy with a trail of broken hearts.
00:26:21How lucky am I for the free entertainment.
00:26:30Mrs. Rhodes.
00:26:32It's a pleasure to have you here at Turntide.
00:26:36Who's your guest?
00:26:37Oh, Andrew.
00:26:38This is Mr. Carlton.
00:26:40Of the Carlton Group.
00:26:41The one and only.
00:26:45Mr. Carlton, would you mind if I had a word with Mrs. Rhodes?
00:26:48Melissa here will show you upstairs.
00:26:56What?
00:26:57Did I do something wrong?
00:26:58Why are you here?
00:26:59Again?
00:27:00To bring you another outstanding opportunity.
00:27:04Andy, Mr. Carlton can improve your standing immensely.
00:27:08Come on now.
00:27:09Mom, I have told you a million times.
00:27:11I want to make a name for myself.
00:27:14Stop meddling in my business.
00:27:16You know what?
00:27:17You are going to hear him out.
00:27:19Now, let's not keep him waiting.
00:27:20Come on now.
00:27:31What are you looking for?
00:27:33I can't seem to find a file on the Braxton Project.
00:27:37You know, I think Andy took that into his office.
00:27:39Oh.
00:27:44Somebody is about to get in trouble.
00:27:49Oh.
00:27:52Okay.
00:27:53I'm so stupid.
00:27:55I'm so stupid.
00:27:56I'm so stupid.
00:27:57I'm so stupid.
00:27:58I'm so stupid.
00:27:59I'm so stupid.
00:28:07Dad?
00:28:10We're looking to expand in the next quarter.
00:28:12Please.
00:28:15So, what brings you here today?
00:28:18The Carlton Group.
00:28:19We are very interested in acquiring you.
00:28:22Oh.
00:28:26Oh.
00:28:28Excuse me?
00:28:29Ah, sorry.
00:28:30I, um, stubbed my toe.
00:28:33Please, continue.
00:28:34Well, like I was saying, I'm interested in acquiring TTM.
00:28:39Uh, well, I'm, uh, I'm flattered, Mr. Carlton,
00:28:43but we're not looking to be bought anytime soon.
00:28:46I'm very proud of how far we've come as an independent startup,
00:28:49and I have plans to grow it further on my own.
00:28:51I, I think it's a brilliant idea.
00:28:53I mean, joining with the Carlton Group would give Turntide
00:28:56the much-needed stability in this very competitive industry.
00:29:01Our identity as a young, contemporary brand
00:29:04distinguishes us in the marketplace.
00:29:06I'm not so sure that Turntide would mesh well
00:29:09with the Carlton Group's long-standing traditions.
00:29:12Well, you would have to create a new identity, of course.
00:29:15I mean, you're an ad agency.
00:29:17That's your job, right?
00:29:18Your younger generation just doesn't appreciate
00:29:21the value of an established brand.
00:29:24And do you really want to go into competition with us?
00:29:27Mr. Rhodes, I think this is an opportunity of a lifetime.
00:29:33Thank you for the offer, Mr. Carlton,
00:29:35but I have to kindly refuse.
00:29:37Oh, Ed, you know how this generation is.
00:29:40Always changing their mind and so stubborn.
00:29:43But, you know, they always do come around.
00:29:48You have daughters, don't you?
00:29:50What is it, Chloe and Corrine, isn't it?
00:29:54I only have one daughter, Chloe.
00:30:04I only have one daughter, Chloe.
00:30:07Now you have a big pitch coming up
00:30:10with the Goldfield Beer Group next week.
00:30:14We're also bidding on that deal.
00:30:16You want to make a bet to see who wins?
00:30:18How do you know about that?
00:30:20That was supposed to be a private pitch.
00:30:22I'm a Carlton, and I have eyes everywhere.
00:30:25If you win the Carlton deal,
00:30:27I will hand you three of my hand-picked
00:30:30most valuable clients.
00:30:33But if I win, you sell me your company.
00:30:40All right.
00:30:43Deal.
00:30:44Deal.
00:30:45All right.
00:30:46Bam.
00:30:47I look forward to acquiring your company.
00:31:02Oh, my God.
00:31:03So sorry for the interruption.
00:31:09Well, I will see you later.
00:31:10No, no, no.
00:31:11What were you doing under my desk and in my office?
00:31:14I was just looking for a file,
00:31:15and I thought it would be in here.
00:31:17And then I heard you coming,
00:31:18and it just felt like the best idea.
00:31:22You sure it doesn't have anything to do with Ed Carlton?
00:31:27Well, look, I may or may not have hit him
00:31:30with my bike three years ago,
00:31:31and I thought he was going to recognize me.
00:31:33Okay, well, that's actually really funny,
00:31:35but I'm not really in a laughing mood.
00:31:37You heard everything that just happened.
00:31:38You're making the right choice.
00:31:40I know it's risky,
00:31:41but this could be your only shot to save turntide.
00:31:47If you need any help, let me know.
00:31:55You deserve it.
00:31:56I do.
00:32:00Walk of shame?
00:32:11Hey, congrats, man.
00:32:13On what?
00:32:15She's a 10 for sure.
00:32:17Don't blame you one bit for taking a bite of new hire.
00:32:21If you think I hired Corinne
00:32:22for anything other than her skill set,
00:32:24maybe you should go find somewhere else to work.
00:32:26All right.
00:32:27Damn, man.
00:32:29Forget I said anything.
00:32:32Yeah, we can definitely do that.
00:32:35No, not a problem.
00:32:36We should be able to have it to you by tomorrow.
00:32:38I think if...
00:32:40Let me call you back.
00:32:42Bob.
00:32:43Vince.
00:32:44To what do I owe the pleasure?
00:32:46Your mother would like you at a fitting
00:32:48for your wedding suit.
00:32:49We're here to escort you.
00:32:51Well, that's not going to happen.
00:32:53I have a really busy schedule today,
00:32:55and I don't think I'll be able to make it.
00:32:58That's not going to happen.
00:32:59I have a really busy schedule today,
00:33:01and also I'm not getting married.
00:33:03Well, your mother is very insistent, Mr. Rhodes.
00:33:06Very.
00:33:07Did my dad send them?
00:33:09Well, I'm just...
00:33:13Hey, let him go!
00:33:15Whoa, whoa!
00:33:22You didn't need to do that.
00:33:23I have been seeing these creeps around, okay?
00:33:25To be safe, get pepper spray.
00:33:28Oh, I think you got some on my shirt.
00:33:30Oh, it's fine. I'll do laundry.
00:33:32Now?
00:33:33I can do laundry.
00:33:36I think.
00:33:57I think.
00:34:15Oh, it burns. It burns. It burns.
00:34:19Oh, I'm not that happy.
00:34:23Ow!
00:34:28Ow!
00:34:34The other nail.
00:34:36Oh.
00:34:39This one.
00:34:45Come on.
00:34:53No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:34:57Spoon?
00:34:58Microwave.
00:34:59No.
00:35:00No.
00:35:03Here.
00:35:10Okay, whatever my parents were paying the maids,
00:35:12they need to double it.
00:35:17Wax or oil?
00:35:27Close enough.
00:35:38Hey!
00:35:40Did you cook?
00:35:41Yeah.
00:35:42And I used a recipe.
00:35:44Oh, and the best part is...
00:35:50I cleaned the floors!
00:35:52You what?
00:35:53I just wanted to say thank you for all of your help
00:35:56and, you know, getting me a job.
00:35:58And it's Saturday.
00:35:59So I cleaned the floors!
00:36:03Looks great in here.
00:36:04And it smells great, too.
00:36:07Yeah, well, get over here before it gets cold.
00:36:14What the hell did you clean the floors with?
00:36:16Soap.
00:36:18Oh, and then I polished them with oil.
00:36:21Olive oil.
00:36:23I'm assuming that's not the right kind of oil?
00:36:25No.
00:36:26Not the right kind of oil.
00:36:28We are going to walk very, very slowly to the towel closet.
00:36:32Yeah?
00:36:37Okay, I have to go.
00:36:38Come on, right here.
00:36:40Okay, well, move your foot.
00:36:41Okay.
00:36:42I can't.
00:36:43What am I supposed to do?
00:36:44Wait!
00:36:51RUN!
00:36:59Oh my God.
00:37:01Are you okay?
00:37:09So good! It smells so good.
00:37:11It smells really great.
00:37:15I should...
00:37:16Brussel sprouts.
00:37:17Yeah, I'll go get the...
00:37:18Yeah. Yeah, you do that.
00:37:20Okay.
00:37:22Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow.
00:37:24Okay, new house rule.
00:37:27No more chores without supervision.
00:37:29Hey, dinner was edible.
00:37:37Need a hand over there?
00:37:39No.
00:37:41I'm all powerful.
00:37:48Yeah, the bruise on my ass would say otherwise.
00:37:51Sure.
00:37:53I am really, really sorry about that.
00:37:55There's a lot I need to learn.
00:37:58Yeah.
00:38:00There's a lot that you do know.
00:38:02Yeah. Like how to escape a wedding.
00:38:04I saw those heels. That could not have been easy.
00:38:11If you could be any animal, which one would you be?
00:38:15I'd be like a spider monkey.
00:38:17Okay, so which ones go?
00:38:19Jump? I don't know. X? Come on.
00:38:21X!
00:38:25You know, my mom taught my sister and I
00:38:27how to have perfect posture
00:38:29and impeccable taste.
00:38:31Actually.
00:38:33But
00:38:35she didn't teach us anything useful.
00:38:38Like how to cook or clean or live independently.
00:38:42I mean, I never really liked those lessons anyway.
00:38:44I was always just questioning everything.
00:38:47My sister was really good at it, though.
00:38:49And then at some point they just stopped trying.
00:38:52So you have a sister?
00:38:54Yeah. Older.
00:38:56Chloe.
00:39:00She is the definition of golden child.
00:39:04Brilliant, beautiful, and most importantly
00:39:07obese.
00:39:09Yeah, in my parents' eyes I was always the
00:39:11disappointing, troublemaking
00:39:13younger sister who was only
00:39:15really good for one thing.
00:39:17Marriage.
00:39:21And hopefully to a guy who would just shut me up for good.
00:39:24I see.
00:39:26Arranged marriage.
00:39:28You don't really seem that surprised.
00:39:30Uh, yeah.
00:39:32It happened to a friend of mine.
00:39:34Oh.
00:39:36Yeah.
00:39:38I only met him like once before the wedding.
00:39:41So weird.
00:39:43Well, you know what? I'm glad you ran away.
00:39:46Fuck him.
00:39:50Yeah?
00:39:52Yeah.
00:39:53Okay, well I haven't really brought much peace
00:39:55into your life.
00:39:57I'm not good at everything like my sister, okay?
00:40:00I don't pick up on things easily.
00:40:02You're smart, Corinne.
00:40:04You're very smart, sometimes.
00:40:07And I think that you just need to show them
00:40:10that you can live just as good of a life, no, you know what?
00:40:12Hell, better.
00:40:14On your own terms.
00:40:16And you're not alone.
00:40:21Why are you looking at me like that?
00:40:23No, I'm sorry. I just...
00:40:26I just really want to kiss you.
00:40:34No.
00:40:50No, no, no.
00:40:53Why?
00:40:57There better be something in your pocket.
00:40:59Ugh, what are you imagining?
00:41:01Oh, God.
00:41:04Ugh.
00:41:06Uh, we should...
00:41:08Yeah, yeah.
00:41:10...do anything else. Okay.
00:41:12Okay, yeah.
00:41:14Was I snoring?
00:41:16You know, I'm gonna get some water.
00:41:18Okay.
00:41:20This apartment is depressing, you know that?
00:41:25The only thing you own is action figures and video games.
00:41:28That is the definition of delinquency.
00:41:31Excuse me?
00:41:33Look, we've lived in this apartment long enough, okay?
00:41:35Where's the decor? The books?
00:41:38The books?
00:41:40I don't read books. It's the 21st century.
00:41:42Who owns books?
00:41:44Every sensible adult in the world.
00:41:46Well, I, uh, didn't take you for a nerd, Corey.
00:41:49Okay, this is unacceptable.
00:41:51You need to read, Andy.
00:41:53How can you be the founder of a media company
00:41:55if you don't read?
00:41:57I listen to podcasts.
00:42:00I gotta go run some errands. I'll be home later.
00:42:02Okay. You can just do whatever you want.
00:42:05Unless you're asking me for permission.
00:42:07In that case, no.
00:42:14Did you forget your keys again?
00:42:23Dad?
00:42:29Dad?
00:42:32So this is where you're spending your little vacation?
00:42:34No, um...
00:42:37This is my home.
00:42:39Home? Very funny.
00:42:41This is merely a month-long tantrum
00:42:43befitting of a brat
00:42:45who is ungrateful as you.
00:42:48Well, I like it.
00:42:50When are you coming back?
00:42:51James did not like that stunt you pulled.
00:42:54And you embarrassed us all.
00:42:56And you almost cost us our connection with the Prescott's.
00:42:59Luckily, James and his parents are willing to forgive.
00:43:03How did you find me?
00:43:05Oh, please.
00:43:06I hired a private investigator when you ran.
00:43:09I've known about this place for weeks.
00:43:11You cut me off completely
00:43:13just so you could secretly watch me suffer?
00:43:15No.
00:43:17This is my life now, okay?
00:43:19I have worked for it. Just leave me alone.
00:43:21Cutting you off was your punishment.
00:43:23It was to teach you a lesson.
00:43:25Apparently, I guess it didn't.
00:43:27You are a carl, too.
00:43:29Act like it!
00:43:30Your sister is nearly ready to take over as the CEO of our company.
00:43:35While you are wasting our name.
00:43:39The least that you can do is accept your place as a dutiful wife.
00:43:44I am not some complacent little prize for your business partners.
00:43:48You know what?
00:43:50My boyfriend is coming home soon
00:43:52and he really doesn't like it when I'm upset.
00:43:54Boyfriend?
00:43:56What boyfriend?
00:43:58What boyfriend?
00:43:59Well, his name is Andy.
00:44:01And if you don't know about him, maybe you should get a new private investigator.
00:44:05Now get out!
00:44:07I regret this, little girl.
00:44:25Andy?
00:44:27What are you doing here?
00:44:29I pass by this place every day.
00:44:32I just thought I'd stop in and see what all the hubbub's about.
00:44:37Aww, did my comment get to you?
00:44:39We thought it was so sweet.
00:44:41No.
00:44:42No, I'm not buying anything.
00:44:44Oh.
00:44:46No.
00:44:48I am.
00:44:49Hold this.
00:44:51Classic.
00:44:54Little women?
00:44:56Are they like Tinkerbell?
00:44:58They are full-sized.
00:45:00You two are building quite the library there.
00:45:06You two are building quite the library there.
00:45:08Oh, we were just getting started.
00:45:09No kidding.
00:45:10Well, we just got a very special shipment in.
00:45:13A rare first edition of the complete poems of Emily Dickinson.
00:45:17A rare first edition of the complete poems of Emily Dickinson by Thomas H. Johnson.
00:45:22Which is widely regarded as the authoritative collection of her work.
00:45:26And only for $200.
00:45:28It's an opportunity you can't miss if you're a true collector.
00:45:32Ma'am.
00:45:34Johnson's complete Emily Dickinson may be her first full collection of her work,
00:45:38but it is far from authoritative.
00:45:40I mean, Miller's has been regarded as the leading version among scholars for, well, years.
00:45:45And if I wanted to get a first edition Johnson, I could easily get it for $80.
00:45:49So before you sell me an outdated and overpriced book,
00:45:51maybe you should just think about whether or not I'm an idiot.
00:45:56Well then.
00:46:00So, you can't do chores, but you're a literature expert.
00:46:07This one is my favorite.
00:46:10I've never heard of it.
00:46:12It is so juicy.
00:46:14High society affairs.
00:46:15Unrequited love.
00:46:17Plot twists.
00:46:19Oh, it is such a fun time.
00:46:22We have so many.
00:46:24Maybe next time.
00:46:43What is it, Dr. Seuss?
00:46:47Could you help me send a postcard?
00:46:51Who's this?
00:46:52This?
00:46:53He is...
00:46:55James Prescott.
00:46:56Current fiance.
00:46:57And you are?
00:47:00Andy Rhodes.
00:47:02You have a fiance?
00:47:03Okay.
00:47:05You are not my fiance, James.
00:47:06And just quit telling people that.
00:47:08Just because you left me at the altar doesn't mean we won't get married eventually.
00:47:12Oh, you're that guy.
00:47:14Man, you know, you really can't take no for an answer.
00:47:19Stay out of this.
00:47:20This is between me and her.
00:47:22She can make her own decisions.
00:47:24In fact, you know, why don't we ask her?
00:47:26Curren, did you change your mind?
00:47:28No, I didn't.
00:47:32Well, there you have it.
00:47:34No means no.
00:47:35And she's here with me, so you can go on about your day.
00:47:41And she's here with me, so you can go on about your day.
00:47:43Okay, look, man, I don't know what you think.
00:47:45Okay, guys, we are in public.
00:47:47James, I don't even know you, okay?
00:47:49This was all of our parents' idea, and I'm sure there is a lovely girl out there for you who is not me.
00:47:55There you go.
00:47:57Bye-bye now.
00:47:58Look, I don't know who this punk thinks he is, but this isn't over.
00:48:02I wonder what your father has to say about this.
00:48:05Come on.
00:48:09His hair is really shiny.
00:48:14Did you get oat in my coffee?
00:48:20I'll get us one.
00:48:26Oh my goodness!
00:48:27I missed you so much.
00:48:29Ditto.
00:48:30Carlton just isn't the same without you.
00:48:33So, this is the new place, huh?
00:48:35Yeah, Turnpike Media.
00:48:36Oh my god, let me give you a tour.
00:48:46It's a storm cloud.
00:48:47Yeah, remember when I said I had a roommate?
00:48:49And now he's also my boss.
00:48:53But he's not normally like that. I wonder what happened.
00:48:56I think I might know.
00:48:59Someone published an expose on Turnpike Media.
00:49:01It's all over the news.
00:49:07Oh no.
00:49:08That's really bad.
00:49:09Yeah, I'd better go.
00:49:11But, dinner soon?
00:49:12Okay, yes, please.
00:49:14Good luck.
00:49:16Thanks.
00:49:21That's a good start to the morning.
00:49:23I'm literally sick to my stomach right now.
00:49:29What's going on?
00:49:31Didn't you hear?
00:49:32We're the new poster child for unethical advertising.
00:49:35Apparently there was a recall on the first product deal Andy ever did as CEO.
00:49:39Oh shit.
00:49:40And the worst part, the Carlton group boosted the article immediately and said,
00:49:44this is what happens when you let a bunch of money-hungry Gen Zers run an ad agency.
00:49:49They gotta be behind it.
00:49:50Didn't Ed Carlton just visit the office a week ago?
00:49:54Can I see you all in the conference room?
00:49:57No.
00:49:58Okay.
00:50:00What's gonna happen?
00:50:03As some of you may know, malicious headlines have been circling around Turntide.
00:50:09Most of the report is false, but we do have some evidence of an internal data leak.
00:50:14We have a mole?
00:50:19We have a mole?
00:50:21Too soon to say.
00:50:22But I will get to the bottom of this.
00:50:24Well, if you ask me, everything was fine until a certain someone was hired.
00:50:30I guess the tabloids aren't the only one throwing around baseless accusations.
00:50:34I'm just putting together two and two.
00:50:36We didn't have a leak before you were hired.
00:50:38Enough.
00:50:39I didn't call this meeting so that people could point fingers at one another.
00:50:42The Goldfield pitch is coming up, and it is our top priority to secure this deal.
00:50:46If we can win them over, who knows, maybe we can regain the trust of some of our other clients.
00:50:51This pitch is life or death for Turntide.
00:50:53So I'm gonna be presenting it.
00:50:59So, mind you, he's fully naked.
00:51:02When he drags me into the shower to show me his waterbending skills.
00:51:06But it was just water dripping down his fingers.
00:51:09Yeah, I was five.
00:51:10You know, I recall having to call 911 to, uh, rescue you from a tree
00:51:16after your failed experiment with flying using helium balloons.
00:51:21I was levitating off the ground for a little bit.
00:51:24You know, that's considered flying.
00:51:26He was.
00:51:40Shall we?
00:51:41Wait, Luke, where the hell are you guys going?
00:51:44You enjoy your night, bro.
00:51:51What the hell is happening?
00:51:54Okay, you really have to learn how to read a room.
00:51:56Their eyes have been glued to each other all night.
00:51:59Oh.
00:52:02Good for them.
00:52:06You're cute.
00:52:08Come on, waterbender.
00:52:10Let's go home.
00:52:12Come on.
00:52:17Well, I, for one, think Andy and Corinne would be great together.
00:52:22And not just because Andy introduced me to his best friend.
00:52:27Excuse me.
00:52:31Yeah, I'm really rooting for him, too.
00:52:33Just glad Corinne's doing well.
00:52:34She's been through so much in such a short time.
00:52:39What, Andy didn't tell you?
00:52:41She got disowned by her rich family.
00:52:43They're apparently a big deal.
00:52:45They wanted her to marry some big shot, but she didn't love him.
00:52:49She's never been on her own before, so she had to learn from scratch.
00:52:53Oh, wow.
00:52:55I had no idea.
00:53:01It's pretty funny, then, how she met Andy.
00:53:04You know?
00:53:05Like, it's ironic that she ran away from home,
00:53:08Huh?
00:53:09Like, it's ironic that she ran away from one rich guy,
00:53:12straight into the arms of another.
00:53:14Her family would be thrilled if they ever took their heads out of their asses.
00:53:20Wait, Andy is rich?
00:53:23Yeah, uh-huh.
00:53:26Haven't you heard of the Rhodes family?
00:53:30Oh, my God.
00:53:31Rhodes Hotels? I never even put it together.
00:53:34Yeah, he went on his own a couple years ago.
00:53:36He wanted to make a name for himself, pave his own way aside from his family.
00:53:42But you and Corinne don't know anything about Andy.
00:53:45And you and Andy don't know about Corinne.
00:53:49Holy shit!
00:53:56Hey, girl.
00:53:58Okay, tell me everything.
00:53:59Tell me everything.
00:54:05Basking in the afterglow?
00:54:08I don't kiss and tell.
00:54:09It was amazing. Ten out of ten.
00:54:11But before I give you details, there's something way more urgent I have to tell you.
00:54:14You're never going to guess what I heard last night.
00:54:17Uh, but, uh, you got a sec?
00:54:19Uh, yeah, sure. I could take a break.
00:54:22Okay, what?
00:54:23What is more important than your sex life?
00:54:26I heard one of the craziest things from Monica last night.
00:54:28Did you know Corinne comes from one of the wealthiest families in the country?
00:54:32What did you say?
00:54:33Corinne. Andy comes from a rich family.
00:54:37Rhodes Hotels.
00:54:38What?
00:54:39Yeah.
00:54:40Dude, Corinne is, or was, I guess, a Carlton.
00:54:44Why would she hide that?
00:54:46I don't know what to say.
00:54:59Wow.
00:55:03You're a Carlton.
00:55:10You're a Carlton.
00:55:11Yes. I'm the Carlton's youngest daughter.
00:55:14Not that they would acknowledge it.
00:55:15You're a Carlton.
00:55:16The same corporation that's been trying to buy me out and bad mouth me in the press.
00:55:20Are you the fucking mole?
00:55:21Is that why you showed up in this apartment in the first place?
00:55:24Do you really think that I would do that to you?
00:55:26After everything we've been through.
00:55:28You know me, Andy. You know that I have no loyalty to my family.
00:55:32I don't know. What do you mean?
00:55:34Why didn't you tell me that you come from a rich family too?
00:55:36How is that relevant right now?
00:55:38What is that relevant?
00:55:39You're accusing me of lying about my family, yet you did the exact same thing.
00:55:44At least I have an excuse. What's yours?
00:55:46Were you cut off from your family too?
00:55:48No. No. I wasn't.
00:55:49Okay, well then why are you here?
00:55:51You don't even need to live a normal life.
00:55:53What are you just pretending for fun?
00:55:55I am not here for fun.
00:55:57I went out on my own to prove myself.
00:55:59Everybody just expected me to join the family business.
00:56:01But I needed to make my own way in the world.
00:56:03Okay, well then why didn't you just tell me that, okay?
00:56:06Why don't you trust me?
00:56:07Well, I didn't tell you because I thought that you could be a-
00:56:09Could be what?
00:56:10I thought that you could be after my money.
00:56:14I thought that you could be after my money.
00:56:18Okay, that came out-
00:56:19Yeah, it fucking did.
00:56:21First I'm a traitor, and now I'm a gold digger.
00:56:23You know what? You are just a real class act, Andy.
00:56:25Oh, stop deflecting.
00:56:27You heard that from Mr. Colton while you were snooping around in my office, no less.
00:56:31And you didn't say anything.
00:56:32I have every right to be angry.
00:56:34I chose freedom!
00:56:37And I lost everything because of it.
00:56:40Did you really think that I would turn around and just betray you like that?
00:56:46I opened up to you about everything.
00:56:49And you just turn around and throw it in my face.
00:56:51I even told you that my parents were for my sister over me.
00:56:54And you know how important it is for me to be treated as an equal, and yet you still don't do it.
00:56:59When? When have I not treated you as an equal?
00:57:02You suspect your equal of ulterior motives.
00:57:04So much so that you would accuse her of being the mole?
00:57:09After living with her for weeks.
00:57:11No, it doesn't matter.
00:57:13I saw the door camera footage.
00:57:15And Colton was standing right here in this apartment.
00:57:17Did you feed him information then?
00:57:18No.
00:57:25He was just trying to get me to come back.
00:57:27I have seen you lie, Corinne.
00:57:30It comes as easily to you as breathing.
00:57:32Ever since you showed up in this apartment, you have caused me nothing but trouble.
00:57:35And I swear, if you're the reason that my agency is in jeopardy, I...
00:57:41That sounds like you already think I'm guilty.
00:57:45So be it.
00:57:49Come on.
00:57:57Oh, honey.
00:57:58I'll get the ice cream.
00:58:06Enjoy.
00:58:07Hi, welcome.
00:58:12Corinne.
00:58:16Why did you ask me here, James?
00:58:17Cutting right to the chase.
00:58:19Okay.
00:58:20Well, you see, I haven't quite given up on our future nuptials.
00:58:25Wait.
00:58:26You're going to want to hear what I have to say.
00:58:29Please.
00:58:30What could you possibly say to convince me to go along with this arrangement?
00:58:33Your boy toy isn't who he says he is.
00:58:35Andy?
00:58:37I know.
00:58:38He's part of the Rhodes family.
00:58:40Big whoop.
00:58:41Not that, Corinne.
00:58:42He's engaged to this woman, Betty Kenden, 25.
00:58:47She's a childhood sweetheart of his.
00:58:49No, no, no.
00:58:50I met her.
00:58:51She's crazy.
00:58:52They've been engaged to be married since childhood.
00:58:55My source is correct, which, trust me, it is.
00:58:58The wedding is set for May.
00:59:00Well, you're wrong.
00:59:01Who's your source?
00:59:12Okay, you know what?
00:59:21You still haven't said what that has to do with you and I.
00:59:24So just get to the point.
00:59:25The point is, Corinne, I know you love him.
00:59:29But you can't have him.
00:59:30He belongs to Miss Camden.
00:59:32This past month, with all of it, it's been fake.
00:59:35It's a dream.
00:59:36Fuck you.
00:59:37What I can offer you is real.
00:59:39Yeah, what's that?
00:59:41Security.
00:59:42A home.
00:59:43Assurance that what you have won't disappear in an instant.
00:59:45You will be taken care of forever.
00:59:47You will never have to worry or doubt ever again.
00:59:50Take some time.
00:59:52Think about it.
00:59:54I'll be waiting.
00:59:58Do you remember, Andy, how her Easter dress got so muddy
01:00:02that your parents had to cancel the press shoot?
01:00:05That was such a fun day, despite the looks on their faces.
01:00:09Oh, gosh.
01:00:10You know, you two have made such a couple then.
01:00:13And now.
01:00:18Excuse me, I need to use the restroom.
01:00:23This place is just so lovely, isn't it?
01:00:26Sorry, I just need to send a quick message.
01:00:29No problem, dear.
01:00:40Such a lovely evening, isn't it?
01:00:42Yes.
01:00:46There he is.
01:00:58Fuck this.
01:01:03Excuse me.
01:01:09Is he taunting me?
01:01:10Is this psychological warfare?
01:01:13You know what, James is right.
01:01:14I really need to get myself out of this mess.
01:01:20Corinne!
01:01:21What a coincidence.
01:01:23I was just having dinner with Andy and his mother.
01:01:26Would you like to join?
01:01:28Are you the one who texted me off of Andy's phone?
01:01:31Did you really think Andy wanted to talk things over in makeup?
01:01:34How sad.
01:01:45Hello there.
01:01:46Didn't expect to hear from you so soon.
01:01:48You're right.
01:01:50Imagine that.
01:01:51What will you do?
01:01:58You know what?
01:01:59I would like to propose a toast to Turntide and all the success that you've had, Andy.
01:02:05I am so proud of you.
01:02:08Cheers.
01:02:11Thanks, Mom.
01:02:12That means a lot.
01:02:13But I didn't propose this dinner to discuss work.
01:02:17I brought you here because we need to put this matter to bed.
01:02:20What's the matter?
01:02:22Betty and I's engagement.
01:02:24Listen, Mom, I know you and the Camdens have wanted this for my entire life.
01:02:28But just because you're telling people it's going to happen doesn't make it true.
01:02:31I'm a grown man now.
01:02:32I need to make my own decisions.
01:02:35Andy?
01:02:37You know what?
01:02:38I'm tired of this.
01:02:39I have been nothing but patient and understanding for years.
01:02:42And all you do is reject me.
01:02:44I've been waiting for you my whole life.
01:02:47What does she have that I don't?
01:02:49Who is she?
01:02:51She is the woman Andy is living with.
01:02:54Andy, is that true?
01:02:58She's just a roommate.
01:02:59And her name is Corinne.
01:03:00Betty, I can't marry you.
01:03:02And it's not because of her.
01:03:03It wouldn't be right.
01:03:04I'm sorry.
01:03:06Fix it.
01:03:08I'm going to call my parents.
01:03:11Andy, just because you have a start-up does not mean that you have life figured out.
01:03:18First you turned down the Carltons, and now the Camdens?
01:03:21God, what are you doing?
01:03:24Are you trying to run your career into the ground, Andy?
01:03:27Partnerships shouldn't be bought.
01:03:30They should be earned.
01:03:31And I want to marry somebody I love, not somebody that I see business value in.
01:03:35You have known Betty your entire life, and our family approves of her.
01:03:38And you stand the risk of insulting her family the longer you put off this marriage.
01:03:44Do you understand?
01:03:46If I can't marry somebody that I love, then I'll just walk away from it all.
01:03:49Oh, God.
01:03:51How dare you?
01:03:53Do you really think that I had a choice in who I married?
01:03:57Do you want the same for your child?
01:04:00You are young, and I know what's best for you.
01:04:03And this is not over.
01:04:05And you will figure it out.
01:04:17Are you leaving?
01:04:19Yes.
01:04:21You can just keep the rest of my stuff, or throw it away. I don't really care.
01:04:25Is this about the other night?
01:04:27I mean, can you blame me for suspecting you?
01:04:29Do you know what's really ironic?
01:04:31You accused me of being this big mastermind and saying all this bullshit about me,
01:04:35yet you are the one with the biggest secret of all.
01:04:37What the hell are you talking about?
01:04:39Enjoy married life.
01:04:43Oh, what? Cat got your tongue now?
01:04:46You know, I should have known that you were a player from the very beginning.
01:04:50Why are you even mad? We're just roommates.
01:04:54What does it matter to you?
01:04:56Just roommates.
01:04:58You know, that's low, even for you, Andy.
01:05:01What?
01:05:02We had moments. The flirting.
01:05:04Oh, we shared a kiss, for God's sake. Does none of that mean anything to you?
01:05:06We were drinking.
01:05:08Right. Got it.
01:05:11Where are you going?
01:05:12None of your business.
01:05:13Oh, you're going back to them, aren't you?
01:05:15James, am I supposed to believe you're innocent now?
01:05:18I always was.
01:05:19If that's the case, then you're a coward.
01:05:21What?
01:05:22After all of the progress you've made,
01:05:24the life that you've built for yourself through blood, sweat and tears,
01:05:26you're just going to give it all away?
01:05:28Take the easy way out?
01:05:29You're better than that, Corinne.
01:05:31What does it matter to you?
01:05:34We're just roommates, remember?
01:05:36Well, not anymore.
01:05:46Hmm, look who decided to show up.
01:05:48You look tired.
01:05:50I'm here.
01:06:03Mr. Fincher, Mr. Thompson, it's an honor to have you here today.
01:06:07We will be presenting our pitch for Goldfield Beer as a team.
01:06:12Here at Turntide, we aim to pinpoint the core that makes a product attractive to consumers
01:06:17and then elevate it into the public consciousness.
01:06:20Through meticulous research,
01:06:22we have found that the two words most commonly associated with Goldfield
01:06:26is summer and taste.
01:06:28Now, accompanied with visual and auditory cues.
01:06:33And that brings us to the slogan that will transform Goldfield's presence in the market.
01:06:38Goldfield, the taste of summer.
01:06:45Mr. Rhodes, you've certainly put a lot of effort into this.
01:06:49It's an impeccable presentation, virtually flawless.
01:06:53We can see the quality that comes out of Turntide.
01:06:56It's an impeccable presentation, virtually flawless.
01:06:59We can see the quality that comes out of Turntide.
01:07:02That may also be your greatest weakness.
01:07:04On the surface, the ad is perfect.
01:07:06But it doesn't possess anything beyond that.
01:07:09I mean, the taste of summer?
01:07:11Come on, what does that even mean?
01:07:13I mean, it's soulless.
01:07:16Basic.
01:07:18And we cannot sign off on this.
01:07:21Well, you know, you'd be surprised.
01:07:23As I mentioned, studies show that people are very receptive to summer themes.
01:07:28They produce neural responses akin to nostalgia.
01:07:31Ads like this are almost guaranteed to bring in higher year-end profits.
01:07:35It's a safe bet.
01:07:37You're well aware of the advantage of this type of marketing, Mr. Rhodes.
01:07:41Other beer brands have been using it for decades.
01:07:44Yeah, and we're not the only ones.
01:07:47Yeah, and we're not other beer brands.
01:07:49We didn't take the risk of coming to a new up-and-coming ad agency
01:07:53to get a boring, safe pitch.
01:07:57Um, well, you know, I can, uh...
01:08:00We've seen enough from you, Mr. Rhodes.
01:08:03Look, I don't want to have to give an ultimatum,
01:08:05but if you don't give us something impressive right now, we're walking.
01:08:10Please, if you give us one more day, we can put together a presentation.
01:08:13Please, if you give us one more day, we can put together a presentation
01:08:16that is equally impressive.
01:08:18We don't want another presentation.
01:08:20We want a good idea.
01:08:27Miss...
01:08:28Corinne Carlton.
01:08:29Corinne Carlton?
01:08:31Isn't that, um...
01:08:33What are you doing?
01:08:35I could pitch.
01:08:39I could pitch.
01:08:42Well, then, go ahead.
01:08:47I recently had the misfortune of losing almost everything I had.
01:08:50And although it was my choice, it was still really hard.
01:08:54And most people think that when you're struggling,
01:08:57you're focused on the basics.
01:08:59Getting a job.
01:09:00Finding a safe place to live.
01:09:02Affording food and necessities.
01:09:04And surviving.
01:09:06And for the most part, that is...
01:09:08But in the in-between moments,
01:09:11when everything is just hitting you,
01:09:13you're just looking for comfort.
01:09:15Just about everywhere.
01:09:17You're looking for anything and everything
01:09:19that will give you a sense of belonging that you used to have.
01:09:22And in one of those moments, someone gave me a Goldfield beer.
01:09:25And I had a really hard time opening it.
01:09:27You know, weak hands.
01:09:30But I couldn't believe how something so simple could mean so much.
01:09:36It was just a beer, but...
01:09:38You know, this may not resonate,
01:09:41but I keep thinking about this quote that Ernest Hemingway wrote.
01:09:44I did not care what it was all about.
01:09:46Life. You know?
01:09:48All I wanted to know was how to live in it.
01:09:51And if I found out how to live in it,
01:09:54then you learned from what you did.
01:09:56If you found out how to live in it,
01:09:58then you learned from what it was all about.
01:10:01Goldfield. Live in it.
01:10:03The sun also rises.
01:10:05You'd have no way of knowing this, young lady,
01:10:08but our CEO is very fond of Hemingway.
01:10:11If he were here right now, he'd be over the moon.
01:10:14He'll love the idea of our ad referencing a favorite.
01:10:21Well, I can throw together some mock-ups by the end of the week.
01:10:25Excellent. We look forward to seeing that.
01:10:28Miss Carlton, you have a bright future here.
01:10:31Thank you. That means a lot.
01:10:34Mr. Thompson, Mr. Fincher, please wait.
01:10:36What more is there to discuss? We made ourselves very clear.
01:10:41I don't know if you know this, but my father is nearly 60 years old.
01:10:45He was a lawyer.
01:10:47He was a lawyer?
01:10:49I don't know if you know this, but my father is nearly 60 years old.
01:10:53He was a lawyer?
01:10:55I can't remember.
01:10:57I can't remember.
01:10:59I don't know if you know this, but my father was a lawyer.
01:11:02I don't know if you know this, but my father is Neil Martin.
01:11:05Okay, and?
01:11:07He's the largest supplier of wheat on the West Coast.
01:11:10A connection with him would be very beneficial for Goldfield.
01:11:14If you go back in there and tell my boss you're turning down Turntide's pitch
01:11:18and going with the Carlton Group, I can make that happen.
01:11:24If you had done any research into our company,
01:11:27Miss Martin, you'd know we produce our own wheat.
01:11:30Goldfield started as a farm.
01:11:32And does Mr. Rhodes know that you're trying to bribe us on behalf of another company?
01:11:39How about, if you do it, I'll give you a night you won't forget?
01:11:44Both of you.
01:11:50Mr. Rhodes, you need to control your people.
01:11:53Never in my entire career have I experienced something so unprofessional.
01:11:57Is this your corporate culture?
01:11:59Absolutely not.
01:12:01And this is no longer an employee of Turntide.
01:12:03My sincerest apologies to both of you, and we will make up for this violation tenfold.
01:12:08If you can come through like your all-star associate promised,
01:12:12maybe we can forget about this.
01:12:21Mr. Rhodes, please.
01:12:22What the fuck were you thinking?
01:12:25I've worked my ass off for this company.
01:12:28I was here when it was nothing.
01:12:30I should have been made a partner ages ago, but you never even considered it.
01:12:34Ed Carlton offered me an executive role just for doing a small favor.
01:12:39So you betrayed us?
01:12:41Put the entire agency in jeopardy.
01:12:44If Corinne hadn't saved us back then...
01:12:45Please! I could have done the same thing.
01:12:48Pack your things. You're fired.
01:12:58Fuck.
01:13:22We don't have to bother.
01:13:28Okay.
01:13:36Not one word, not one gesture of yours shall I, could I, ever forget.
01:13:47He read it.
01:13:49Mr. Carlton, I figured you would show up at some point.
01:13:52Come to hand over your clients to me?
01:13:55Enjoy them while you have them, because I'm sure they'll come crawling back soon.
01:14:00Do you know who won the deal for us?
01:14:02Corinne, your daughter.
01:14:04It seems like you lost your biggest asset when you cut her off from the family.
01:14:08Corinne?
01:14:09How did you know?
01:14:11She's my daughter.
01:14:13It seems like you lost your biggest asset when you cut her off from the family.
01:14:16Corinne? How?
01:14:19I have a deal for you, Ed.
01:14:21What?
01:14:23I will give you back these clients, but you have to give up something else.
01:14:27And that would be?
01:14:29Corinne. Relinquish your control and let her live her own life on her own terms.
01:14:34Stay out of her life for good.
01:14:40Stay out of her life for good.
01:14:42Let's go.
01:14:54Betty, we need to talk about the wedding.
01:15:00Hey, Melissa, have you seen Andy? I just really need to talk to him.
01:15:03No, he's not in yet.
01:15:05But did you hear what happened?
01:15:07No, what happened?
01:15:08Andy fired Lilia.
01:15:10Apparently she's the Carlton mole.
01:15:12It got really intense, so he sent her packing.
01:15:16It was epic.
01:15:18He's also super hot.
01:15:20Okay.
01:15:21What? Wait, how did I miss this?
01:15:23You were still in the meeting room.
01:15:25I was the only witness. Perks of being HR.
01:15:29Okay, do you know where he is?
01:15:31That's the craziest part. He is at the courthouse downtown.
01:15:35What?
01:15:36He's getting married.
01:15:40I...
01:15:50Andy?
01:15:55I'm so sorry, I thought...
01:16:03Corinne.
01:16:06Someone told me that you were at the courthouse.
01:16:09Are you here to heroically stop my Irene's marriage?
01:16:12Okay, well, you don't belong with Betty, okay? You just don't.
01:16:15You've worked so hard and you deserve to be with somebody that loves you.
01:16:18Like, everything about you.
01:16:20Well, maybe Betty does, but you know what? I really don't think so.
01:16:22She's kind of a bitch.
01:16:24Sorry, I'm getting kind of sidetracked.
01:16:26Do not laugh at me, okay? I am trying to give a speech.
01:16:31You, um...
01:16:33You deserve to pick your own path.
01:16:36Whatever that is.
01:16:38And you know, I've always kind of really admired that about you.
01:16:41Just don't go through with it.
01:16:43If I can call off my wedding, then so can you.
01:16:45Are you done?
01:16:47Yes.
01:16:48I'm not marrying Betty.
01:16:53I'm not marrying Betty.
01:16:57Hey, Betty.
01:16:59Can we talk about the marriage?
01:17:00Andy, can't you just be happy with me?
01:17:02Our mothers are so intent on the marriage, they've decided to forego the wedding altogether
01:17:06and just get it over with in a courthouse.
01:17:08Isn't that enough for you?
01:17:10You need to stand up to them with me.
01:17:12This whole time you've been perfectly obedient.
01:17:14This will not be over until you say no too.
01:17:16It's not just obedience, Andy.
01:17:18I've loved you since we were kids.
01:17:20You don't love me.
01:17:22You don't even know what love is.
01:17:25I was never going to marry Betty contrary to popular belief.
01:17:28Oh, just like I was never the mole contrary to popular belief.
01:17:32So, is this where I get to say I told you so?
01:17:36I may or may not have made some assumptions.
01:17:38Understatement of the year.
01:17:40And reacted without solid evidence.
01:17:44I'm sorry for not trusting you, Corey.
01:17:46Nothing that I said to you was true.
01:17:48You haven't made my life any worse.
01:17:50In fact, you have made it a hell of a lot better.
01:17:54We can call it even.
01:17:59Sure.
01:18:02So, what is Mr. Rhodes going to do now?
01:18:07Well, I actually have a very busy evening moving my roommate in.
01:18:11Oh!
01:18:13It's going to be a workout too.
01:18:15She has a shit ton of books.
01:18:17But I love her anyways.
01:18:19No question.
01:18:21If it had been me at the altar, would you have ran?
01:18:24Well, we'll just have to see.
01:18:26I'm going to need some insurance.
01:18:28Oh, shut up and kiss me.
01:18:31No!
