00:00:08Are you sure?
00:00:12I am your son's ex-girlfriend.
00:00:14That doesn't mean a damn thing to me.
00:00:17I'm the only woman I've ever really wanted.
00:00:35Dad, Carissa, what the fuck?
00:00:39Babe, babe, babe.
00:00:42Nicole is just a friend.
00:00:43Oh, so we can sleep with friends now?
00:00:45Men have needs, and you're the one who will not put out till marriage.
00:00:50That gives you permission to sleep with my roommate?
00:00:53Fuck you, you selfish prick. We're done.
00:00:54What?
00:00:58Congrats on taking out the trash.
00:01:01I'm starting work at his dad's company tomorrow.
00:01:03I mean, maybe I should just resign.
00:01:05Okay, okay, chill.
00:01:06It's not like you cheated your way in. You earned that spot.
00:01:10Yeah, I guess so.
00:01:28Okay, I'm all for a rebound. You know that, okay?
00:01:31But that guy? Sketchy vibes.
00:01:37Never know unless I try, right?
00:01:45Sorry. Private area.
00:01:47Looking for him?
00:01:49It's all right. I'm go.
00:01:58I don't believe we know each other.
00:02:00You let me in? Doesn't that mean you want to know me?
00:02:06Oh, my God. I'm so sorry.
00:02:08Spill champagne on strangers often.
00:02:11Only when I'm nervous?
00:02:14It's got you so nervous.
00:02:17Probably you.
00:02:21I better get cleaned up.
00:02:37Look who found me. Coincidence?
00:02:40More like fate.
00:02:42Walk away, kid. Before you get burned.
00:02:46You didn't even ask if I liked getting burned.
00:02:51I warned you.
00:02:53You asked for danger.
00:02:56Now you're mine.
00:02:58Is that a threat?
00:02:59Or opponents?
00:03:24Oh, God. I met out with a stranger last night.
00:03:28Oh, God. I met out with a stranger last night.
00:03:34Good morning.
00:03:35Sleep well?
00:03:37D-did we?
00:03:38Don't worry. Nothing happened.
00:03:40You're still young.
00:03:42Didn't want to give you any regrets.
00:03:44But then, what about my clothes?
00:03:47Covered in puke.
00:03:48I don't want to die.
00:03:51Don't.
00:03:53And then you won't be able to wear the dress I picked out for you.
00:04:00CEO's here to meet the new hires today. You're late.
00:04:02Sorry, it's been a crazy morning.
00:04:07Hi.
00:04:09I'm Gabriel Storm.
00:04:11CEO of Storm Group.
00:04:15Nice to meet you.
00:04:18Clarissa Hartwood.
00:04:25I need a minute.
00:04:30Hold up.
00:04:31The guy you made out with last night is your boss?
00:04:34That's not all.
00:04:35He's Andre's dad.
00:04:36Oh, my God.
00:04:37Talk about drama.
00:04:39It's not funny.
00:04:40I'm freaking the fuck out right now.
00:04:45I gotta call you back.
00:04:51Um, what are you doing here?
00:04:54Waiting outside the bathroom.
00:04:56Figured I'd return the favor.
00:04:59You look very different during the day.
00:05:02Or is it just because I'm the boss?
00:05:04Nope.
00:05:05Just losing my damn mind because you're my ex's dad.
00:05:08Dad?
00:05:14I can't let Gabriel know that Andre and I dated.
00:05:16Dad, where are you?
00:05:20Ugh!
00:05:24So, just like that, while Carissa makes her return, huh?
00:05:29I just wanted to apologize.
00:05:32I totally screwed up last night.
00:05:35I wouldn't mind you screwing up more often.
00:05:38Excuse me.
00:05:45I know I fucked up, but I can't lose her, man.
00:05:49The second I saw her, I just knew.
00:05:52She's it.
00:05:53She is the one.
00:06:00I get that.
00:06:03Look, if you love her, I mean really love her, stop talking and show her.
00:06:11Yeah, you're right.
00:06:13Thanks, Dad.
00:06:19Sir?
00:06:21Shall I call for the card?
00:06:23That new hire, Clarissa.
00:06:25I want her address.
00:06:26Now.
00:06:32Jesus.
00:06:34What happened to you?
00:06:36Jesus, what happened to you?
00:06:39Shower braces.
00:06:40The repairman will be here eventually.
00:06:42Maybe I can help.
00:06:44Mind?
00:06:45Um, come on in.
00:06:58I should do it.
00:07:16Thank you, Mr. Storm.
00:07:20I should be thanking you.
00:07:22Why is that?
00:07:24For giving me the perfect excuse to get closer to you.
00:07:28Why am I doing this?
00:07:30I'm your boyfriend, not a damn handyman.
00:07:33Sorry.
00:07:34Handle it next time.
00:07:38Yeah, make sure you do.
00:07:40Why are you really here?
00:07:42Because I can't stop thinking about you.
00:07:45Every time I try to walk away, I feel like I'm losing a part of myself.
00:07:50Mr. Storm, are you being serious right now?
00:07:54Dead serious.
00:07:56I'm not blind.
00:07:58A woman like you probably has half the city begging for her attention.
00:08:02What I mean is, you're the most talented programmer I've ever seen.
00:08:06And I hope you'll stick it out here at Storm Group.
00:08:11I had to fight so hard to get into Storm Group, I am not gonna walk away because of this.
00:08:18Good.
00:08:21You're telling me that the CEO of Storm Group thinks you're out of his league?
00:08:29Girl, Gabriel isn't just mega rich. He's mega influential.
00:08:34That purse? Custom couture. To die for.
00:08:38But he's Andre's dad. It's a mess.
00:08:43Clarissa, can we talk?
00:08:45I know I messed up, but I am ready to change.
00:08:49Andre, it's over.
00:08:50It's not your problem anymore, so stop showing up like you still matter.
00:08:55Let's go.
00:08:59Gutsy move. Hitting on Gabriel Storm's girl?
00:09:03What?
00:09:07Clarissa, my dad?
00:09:11Figured you might want a getaway driver.
00:09:15I guess chivalry's alive and well, and drives a Range Rover.
00:09:21Jess, wait!
00:09:23Clarissa?
00:09:27Clarissa?
00:09:29Go, go, go, go.
00:09:30Go, go, go, go.
00:09:31Let's hit the road, Mr. Storm.
00:09:33Okay.
00:09:35Get in, get in, get in.
00:09:37Get in the car!
00:09:38Okay, okay, okay!
00:09:39Oh, oh, oh!
00:09:40Okay, drive!
00:09:42God damn it!
00:09:49You gonna walk to the door?
00:09:52Ooh, chilly.
00:09:55Yeah, sorry.
00:09:55Okay.
00:09:59Do you treat all your employees like this?
00:10:02Only the ones I'd bet a kingdom on.
00:10:05It reminds me.
00:10:07Take this.
00:10:09Consider this the start of something bigger.
00:10:14Storm Group Innovation Competition.
00:10:17The winner gets full backing on developing your own tech.
00:10:20The limit's no red tape.
00:10:22And I happen to believe you've got something bigger for the building.
00:10:25Why are you doing all this for me?
00:10:28You know, just trying to be your Prince Charming.
00:10:31Is it working?
00:10:34Maybe a little?
00:10:40Um, sorry.
00:10:46Um...
00:10:54Everything okay?
00:10:56Yeah, um...
00:10:57The drinks are just giving to me.
00:10:59Um...
00:11:01For the ride home, Mr. Storm.
00:11:03Get home safe.
00:11:12What the hell?
00:11:13How did you get in?
00:11:14Ah, relax.
00:11:15Relax.
00:11:16I just thought I'd drop by to see my girl.
00:11:18Your girl?
00:11:18You cheated on me, remember?
00:11:20This, whatever you thought we had, it's over.
00:11:23I'm not clear.
00:11:24I know you still care.
00:11:25I mean, what?
00:11:26You hooked up with my dad to get even?
00:11:29He's my boss.
00:11:31That's it.
00:11:33Really?
00:11:35Cause the bartender said he saw you two kissing.
00:11:38He's just gonna say, can you imagine that?
00:11:40So you heard gossip and decided that I'm the problem?
00:11:43Get over yourself!

00:11:46But forget my dad.
00:11:48I can get you a win when-
00:11:52So that's what you think of me?
00:11:54Someone who takes shortcuts?

00:27:48Yeah, her app isn't the only thing crashing and burning around here.

00:28:08You little bitch.
00:28:10Clarissa.
00:28:11Everything alright?
00:28:12Isn't that Gabriel?
00:28:13The CEO of Storm Group?
00:28:15He always flies solo.
00:28:17He always flies solo.
00:28:17How does she know him?
00:28:19Clarissa Hartwood.
00:28:20Storm Group's top developer.
00:28:22And brain behind on universe.
00:28:24Just so we're clear, I don't entertain slander.
00:28:27Especially when it's geared towards my own team.
00:28:29Come on.
00:28:30I've got a few top tier investors waiting for you.
00:28:37How the hell did she bag him?
00:28:42This isn't over yet.
00:28:44Now presenting Onion vs Founder, Miss Clarissa Hartwood.
00:29:02Yikes, she looks lost.
00:29:05Storm Group must be getting desperate.
00:29:07Another flashy app with no backbone.
00:29:11You've got everything it takes.
00:29:13You just have to believe it.
00:29:15And you've got the edge, Clarissa.
00:29:17Use it.
00:29:18Walk in there like they already said yes.
00:29:24Good afternoon.
00:29:26My name is Clarissa Hartwood.
00:29:27And today I'm going to show you why Onionverse isn't just an app.
00:29:31It's the future.
00:29:44Clarissa.
00:29:45That was incredible.
00:29:47I'm so proud of you.
00:29:48Mr. Storm, the investors are ready for you.
00:29:54You seem good as new.
00:29:56Gabriel's sleepless night was worth it.
00:29:58Huh?
00:29:59He didn't sleep at all?
00:30:00Shh.
00:30:01He looked after you all night long.
00:30:04I've never seen him like this before.
00:30:06He's always been like that.
00:30:16May I?
00:30:17Of course.
00:30:27You two make a good pair.
00:30:29I'm rooting for you.
00:30:30Yeah.
00:30:31I think so too.
00:30:34Oh man.
00:30:35Hi.
00:30:36Hey.
00:30:37See you.
00:30:38See you too.
00:30:45Cheers.
00:30:45Cheers.
00:30:45Cheers.
00:30:46Cheers.
00:30:46Cheers.
00:30:46So he's everyone's Prince Charming, huh?
00:30:48And here I thought I was special.
00:30:51Clarissa.
00:30:52Head back.
00:30:53I'll catch up with you later.
00:31:25Oh my God!
00:31:27Gabriel!
00:31:30Oh my God!
00:31:32Gabriel!
00:31:33Oh my God!
00:31:33My bad.
00:31:34I didn't see a thing.
00:31:35Not even that adorable freckle.
00:31:37Don't you dare to finish that sentence.
00:31:39Take your job off the floor and get out!
00:31:46This isn't a public bath house.
00:31:47How about a little privacy?
00:31:49Hey, you left the door wide open.
00:31:51Practically gave me a VIP pass to your little view show.
00:31:53The lock was busted.
00:31:55You were the one that was taking your sweet time enjoying the view.
00:31:59Listen.
00:32:00It's gone.
00:32:01Alright?
00:32:01Totally wiped.
00:32:02Let's just call it short term memory loss.
00:32:04Oh yeah?
00:32:05Then what are you hiding under your jacket, Mr. Short Term Memory Loss?
00:32:10Oh!
00:32:11Wow!
00:32:11Let's just put that right back where it belongs.
00:32:16For the record, I have been trying to take it slow.
00:32:19But you have been making it damn near impossible.
00:32:23If I didn't know any better,
00:32:26I'd say you're dying to kiss me right now.
00:32:45Tell me you feel it too.
00:32:48Tell me you're not pretending.
00:32:53I'll get it.
00:32:56Great news, ma'am.
00:32:57Another room has opened up, so feel free to move on it.
00:33:00Oh.
00:33:01Great.
00:33:02Thanks.
00:33:09Guess you should get packed up.
00:33:12This is a work trip after all.
00:33:14We should keep it professional.
00:33:16You want me to stay?
00:33:18Just say the word.
00:33:21You should go.
00:33:33There is no tea.
00:33:34I stayed up in bed all night thinking about him.
00:33:37Alone.
00:33:39Good morning, princess.
00:33:42Sleep well?
00:33:43Yeah, totally like a baby.
00:33:46Bullshit.
00:33:47Girl, you're so DeLulu.
00:33:48Just admit it.
00:33:49You're wokey obsessed with him.
00:33:53I got you your favorite latte.
00:33:56Oh, thank you.
00:33:57Listen, about last night.
00:33:58Last night?
00:34:00Who even remembers last night?
00:34:01Let's just pretend that it never happened.
00:34:03Okay, cool.
00:34:05You sure?
00:34:07What if I don't want to?
00:34:12Down, boy.
00:34:13Or I will tank your investment.
00:34:15What did you think about that?
00:34:16You didn't think I was coming.
00:34:19Feisty.
00:34:22Come on.
00:34:23Tell us what really went down on your trip.
00:34:26It wasn't all spreadsheets and PowerPoints, right?
00:34:29Anything interesting happen?
00:34:38Tell me you feel it too.
00:34:40Tell me you're not pretending.
00:34:43What can I say?
00:34:44Business as usual.
00:34:46No crazy plot twists.
00:34:47Yes.
00:34:50This is Carolyn Walker.
00:34:52Partner at Venture X.
00:34:53I can't blame him.
00:34:54She's got the whole blonde bombshell thing going on.
00:34:59This is Carolyn Walker.
00:35:00Partner at Venture X.
00:35:02One of the top firms in the game.
00:35:03We're very fortunate to have her on board.
00:35:07Onionverse was the talk of the summit.
00:35:09Tell me more.
00:35:11Sure.
00:35:15Admit it.
00:35:16You're totally vibing with him.
00:35:18And you know what?
00:35:19I ship it.
00:35:21Fine, but honestly, it doesn't even matter.
00:35:24Pretty sure he's already moved on.
00:35:25Oh, okay.
00:35:27Just shoot your shot.
00:35:28You never know until you try.
00:35:32You know what?
00:35:34You're right.
00:35:35Screw it.
00:35:36I'm sick of pretending.
00:35:37I'll drink of that.
00:35:42I'll drink of that.
00:35:51Uh.
00:35:52Looking for Gabriel?
00:35:54He's tied up right now.
00:35:56Yeah.
00:35:57Work stuff.
00:35:58No biggie yet.
00:35:59If he's busy, I'll just...
00:36:04Who was that?
00:36:05I already told you.
00:36:06No booty calls at my place.
00:36:08Oh, it was Clarissa.
00:36:10She's got the wrong idea.
00:36:12Didn't realize my cousin's such a heartbreak.
00:36:14What?
00:36:17Clarissa, wait.
00:36:20What the hell is this, Gabriel?
00:36:22One minute you're all over me and the next nothing?
00:36:24It's like I'm invisible.
00:36:26I'm sorry.
00:36:28I can't push you into something you're not ready for.
00:36:31I care about you too damn much.
00:36:33This game we're playing, it's killing me.
00:36:36I can't do it anymore.
00:36:38I want you.
00:36:40Now.
00:36:41No.
00:36:59Stay with me tonight.
00:37:01No.
00:37:02No.
00:37:17Wait.
00:37:18Wait.
00:37:21What's wrong?
00:37:22Cold feet?
00:37:23The opposite actually.
00:37:25It's your first time.
00:37:27Oh, okay.
00:37:29It's fine.
00:37:30But it doesn't mean we can't have some fun.
00:37:45Gabriel.
00:37:46I know.
00:37:56Morning, sleeping beauty.
00:37:58Breakfast is served.
00:38:01You are like a walking Pinterest board.
00:38:03Seriously, what can't you do?
00:38:06For you?
00:38:07Copy.
00:38:11But, I'll eat a few things for the imagination.
00:38:18Well, I'm having this birthday dinner tomorrow.
00:38:21Come with me.
00:38:23I want to introduce you to my family and friends.
00:38:25As my girlfriend.
00:38:29You want to introduce me as your girlfriend?
00:38:33Everyone's going to talk.
00:38:35I mean, I dated his son.
00:38:37It could ruin everything for him.
00:38:40I'm sorry.
00:38:40I'm just, I'm not ready to meet everyone yet.
00:38:45Of course.
00:38:49I used to lie awake all night long, feeling like the world was spinning too fast.
00:38:55Then I met you.
00:38:56Now I feel like things have slowed down.
00:38:59This isn't about what other people think.
00:39:02It's about us.
00:39:05Come with me.
00:39:07I really want you there.
00:39:08Alright.
00:39:21Nice try.
00:39:23Aren't you forgetting whose birthday it is?
00:39:25Who needs a birthday when I can just spoil the woman who makes every day feel like one?
00:39:29Get ready to take that back.
00:39:31Because I have a surprise for you.
00:39:35Okay, we can go forward.
00:39:38Super close, super close.
00:39:39Okay, okay.
00:39:44What is all this?
00:39:47Just some Clarissa magic.
00:39:49Now you can sleep soundly even when I'm not here.
00:39:51Clarissa.
00:39:53What did I ever do to deserve you?
00:39:58Gabriel, I need to come clean about something.
00:40:01Andre and I were, we dated.
00:40:05Tell me something I don't know.
00:40:08Why didn't you say anything?
00:40:10Doesn't that freak you out?
00:40:12I mean, I wouldn't blame you.
00:40:13Clarissa, I care about you.
00:40:15Not about who you've been with.
00:40:16I was his girlfriend.
00:40:17You aren't anybody's anything.
00:40:20You're just you.
00:40:22The most intelligent, most beautiful woman I've ever met.
00:40:26And all the stuff that happened before that doesn't matter.
00:40:31It's just you and me now.
00:40:49Are you sure?
00:40:51I am your son's ex-girlfriend.
00:40:53That doesn't mean a damn thing to me.
00:40:55The only woman I've ever really wanted.
00:41:02The only woman I've ever met.
00:41:11Dad, Clarissa, what the fuck?
00:41:16This is rich.
00:41:18You really are screwing my dad.
00:41:20What's next? You gonna hop in bed with my fucking grandpa?
00:41:23Alright. Watch it, Andre.
00:41:26Newsflash! This is my ex-girlfriend, you fucking old man!
00:41:29I know. Lower your voice.
00:41:31Oh, you know? Then why the hell are you feeling you're up for then?
00:41:38This isn't just some fling.
00:41:40So drop the temper tantrum.
00:41:42I'm not walking away from her.
00:41:44You had your shot. You blew it.
00:41:47This isn't over.
00:41:49This isn't over.
00:41:55This is exactly what I was afraid of.
00:41:58No. Listen to me. Listen to me.
00:42:01I'm not gonna let anybody come between us.
00:42:04Okay? Not now. Not ever.
00:42:11Drinking alone tonight?
00:42:13Looks like somebody got dumped for good.
00:42:17I wish that was it.
00:42:20The bitch hopped in the bed with Michael Mann.
00:42:22Check it out.
00:42:24Already hard launching their relationship.
00:42:26Shut up.
00:42:28Alright, tomorrow's his birthday.
00:42:30And we make sure it's one he never forgets.
00:42:48I'd like to say thank you all for coming.
00:42:50It's an honor to be celebrating my birthday with you.
00:42:53Especially because I have an announcement to make.
00:42:55Clarissa and I have decided to make our relationship official.
00:43:03How touching.
00:43:05Congrats.
00:43:05No, you guys are so cute.
00:43:07It makes me sick.
00:43:08Andre, what are you doing?
00:43:10You happy with my leftovers, Dad?
00:43:12I mean, way to keep it in the family.
00:43:15No, anyways, I just wanna say,
00:43:17here's to my ex, my dad.
00:43:20I wish you all the best.
00:43:21But I doubt it'll last until your next birthday.
00:43:25Never should've come. I'm sorry.
00:43:29Clarissa is with me now.
00:43:30What's behind us doesn't matter.
00:43:32Only what's ahead.
00:43:34You don't need a lemon high.
00:43:36You're right where you belong.
00:43:38Here with me.
00:43:57I'm sorry I ruined your party.
00:43:59Ruined?
00:44:03Not a chance.
00:44:04Honestly, tonight's one I'll never forget.
00:44:10because I've got the best present I could ever ask for right here.
00:44:15Gabriel.
00:44:27Storm group's in free fall and you're hooking up on the couch.
00:44:31Real professional, Gabe.
00:44:33What are you talking about?
00:44:36You have no idea what's going on, do you?
00:44:42Gabriel Storm, CEO of Storm Group, has been dating his son's ex-girlfriend, causing an uproar in the business world.
00:44:49This scandal has tanked Storm Group's stock price.
00:44:52And the cherry on top? We lost 8% market and counting.
00:44:56Make the call, Gabe.
00:44:58Your son's ex? Or your company?
00:45:01Should be a no-brainer.
00:45:03No one tells me how or when to make a decision.
00:45:10Stay calm.
00:45:11Alright, I'm gonna handle everything.
00:45:13Head home for now.
00:45:25That expose was just chef's kiss.
00:45:28I mean, the photos. The camera loves you such a natural.
00:45:32Having fun?
00:45:33Spoiler alert, I'm not giving up on Gabriel over a few headlines.
00:45:36Oh yeah? I mean, it's getting pretty messy. How much trust do you have him not to just give up
00:45:41on you?
00:45:44Gabriel loves me. More than you ever did, he wouldn't.
00:45:48Oh man, you really think you have a chance.
00:45:50No, no, no. My dad is a businessman, not a charity.
00:45:54He will never give up his life's work for some slut like you.
00:46:22Andre was lying.
00:46:25He has to be. I mean, Gabriel wouldn't throw me away like that.
00:46:29Right?
00:46:37Hello.
00:46:41Hello. The number you have dialed is busy.
00:46:43Please call again later.
00:46:48I know how much pressure you're under.
00:46:51I won't hold it against you.
00:46:56So you're telling me the family biz is being a huge douche?
00:47:00That checks out. Red flags all around.
00:47:03Maybe it's just a misunderstanding. I mean, maybe he's just, I don't know, busy.
00:47:07Too busy to respond to a text?
00:47:09Girl, my dog responds faster than that. And she's blind.
00:47:14But Storm Group's in a lot of trouble.
00:47:16I mean, the stock prices are still dropping.
00:47:19The board's breathing down his neck. He's probably swamped. I mean...
00:47:27Ah!
00:47:34Hey, are you okay, Car?
00:47:37Take it easy.
00:47:49Hey, babe. Don't waste tears on him. He's straight up trash.
00:47:55Speak of a devil.
00:48:06Miss Hardwood?
00:48:08Mr. Storm asked me to take you to the ER.
00:48:11I'll pass. And you know what? Tell him to lose my number.
00:48:23I'm in.
00:48:28Good morning.
00:48:31I, uh...
00:48:32I have to talk to you about work?
00:48:34I'm busy.
00:48:35Bring it up at the board meeting.
00:48:40This is a complete PR disaster. There is no way to spin this.
00:48:46Clarissa might be a star employee.
00:48:48But this circus is dragging us all down.
00:48:54Can we really afford to keep her around?
00:49:10I'll address Storm Group's recent controversies at tomorrow's press conference.
00:49:16You'll all get an explanation at that time.
00:49:24Clarissa, can we talk?
00:49:25Storm, we need your eyes on the new financial report.
00:49:34Clarissa, please just let me explain.
00:49:39You want to explain?
00:49:41Save it for the board. I've heard enough.
00:49:43Clarissa, please.
00:49:45I don't have time for this. If it's not about work, then just drop it.
00:49:51Clarissa...
00:49:58Clarissa, listen. I only... I only iced you out so the board wouldn't give you a hard time.
00:50:03Please believe me.
00:50:04Looking for a thank you? I don't want to be someone you update when it's convenient.
00:50:08I wanted to fight this together.
00:50:10I'll give you the answer you need at tomorrow's press conference.
00:50:14I promise.
00:50:14We're secret schemes, huh?
00:50:18Forget it.
00:50:19Maybe we just weren't meant to be together.
00:50:24I made my position very clear to the board.
00:50:27I'm not giving up on Onionverse.
00:50:29Or you.
00:50:31I just can't get it through your head, Gabriel.
00:50:34I wanted to be by your side.
00:50:36Not left in the dark.
00:50:49What are you still doing here? Didn't you watch the press conference?
00:50:52It's literally the last thing that I want to do right now.
00:50:56Sorry, not sorry. You have to watch this.
00:50:59Store Group will terminate its investment in Onionverse.
00:51:03But I will personally continue its funding going forward.
00:51:06My time as CEO may be over.
00:51:09But...
00:51:10I need to protect what really matters to me.
00:51:27We need to talk.
00:51:31Are you crazy?
00:51:33Stepping down as CEO, I mean what were you thinking?
00:51:36Storm Group has been my baby for years.
00:51:39That was before I met you.
00:51:41Now there's something else, someone else, that I want to protect.
00:51:47You're a jerk.
00:51:49A stubborn, insane jerk, but...
00:51:52I love you so much.
00:51:55Clarissa.
00:51:57I'm so sorry.
00:51:59I pushed you away, and I thought I was protecting you.
00:52:02No more secrets.
00:52:03No more distancing.
00:52:05From now on, every obstacle, every challenge, let's face them together.
00:52:10Clarissa Hartwood.
00:52:16Will you marry me?
00:52:19Will you marry me?
00:52:22Yes.
00:52:23A billion times yes, Gabriel.
00:52:34But tonight, I want more.
00:52:37I want to be yours.
00:52:39Completely.
00:52:51Are you absolutely sure?
00:52:54When my last minute change is to say the word, I can still be the gentleman.
00:52:59What?
00:52:59No plane.
00:53:01No more distancing.
00:53:02We want you.
00:53:03All of you.
00:53:15Good morning, princess.
00:53:17Coffee's hot.
00:53:19I figured you could use a recharge after last night.
00:53:21Oh, you.
00:53:22What?
00:53:25You know, I don't even need any sugar in my coffee when you're around.
00:53:32Sorry, am I interrupting something?
00:53:36Oh, Andre.
00:53:40My dad.
00:53:41My ex.
00:53:42Isn't this a perfect little reunion?
00:53:45Oh, I can't think of a better way to kick things off.
00:53:49What do you want?
00:53:50You thought you were going to beat me.
00:53:52The show is about to come up and...
00:53:55Oh, we're about to lose everything.
00:54:06Mr. Stormer, we have reports of unauthorized company transfers to your private account.
00:54:11I'm going to need you to come with me.
00:54:13That's impossible, sir.
00:54:14There must be some kind of mistake.
00:54:16Don't worry.
00:54:17I'm going to get this handled.
00:54:19I'll be back soon.
00:54:21Andre, even for you, this is a new loan.
00:54:24Gee, thanks, Dad.
00:54:25Gabriel, wait!
00:54:29No, Gabriel applied for that money for Onionverse.
00:54:32He never misused company funds.
00:54:34I mean, you know that.
00:54:35Can't you testify to that?
00:54:36We've got bigger problems, Clarissa.
00:54:38Storm Group's in crisis mode.
00:54:41You've resigned.
00:54:42Stay out of it.
00:54:47Need some help?
00:54:53Oh, what's wrong, Clarissa?
00:54:55You don't need a hand?
00:54:56I thought you'd love to use men like tissues.
00:54:59Oh!
00:55:01Pathetic brat!
00:55:02I don't know what I ever saw in you!
00:55:10You think you can just humiliate me and get away with it?
00:55:13It's been a long time gone.
00:55:16Miss Hartwood, Mr. Storm sent me.
00:55:19Please follow me.
00:55:32For Mr. Storm.
00:55:34A house, a plane ticket, and a credit card.
00:55:37Did he know this would happen?
00:55:39He had a feeling.
00:55:41Told me to make sure you'd be safe.
00:55:44I don't know.
00:55:45I don't know.
00:55:52Clarissa, if you're watching this, it means things have gone south.
00:55:56I knew Andre would pull something.
00:55:58He is my son after all.
00:55:59I'll make sure this is just a bad chapter for us.
00:56:03Wait for me.
00:56:04Stay strong.
00:56:06Because nothing can stop me from marrying you.
00:56:15I'll be strong.
00:56:19You have to come home, okay?
00:56:23I promise.
00:56:37I'll be strong.
00:56:39You have to come home, okay?
00:56:41That's much better.
00:56:43It's chilly outside.
00:56:44I want you catching a cold, my princess.
00:56:58Here. Here you go.
00:57:04I'm gonna go check on the heater for you, okay?
00:57:15Good morning, sweetheart.
00:57:17Coffee's ready.
00:57:23Car's waiting downstairs.
00:57:25Ready when you are, Clarissa?
00:57:30No, no, I can't do this. I'm not running.
00:57:41Andre. I want to meet. Now.
00:58:01You're here to take me home?
00:58:02Sorry to brush your bubble, Dad.
00:58:04She's got other plans.
00:58:06You've lost everything, Gabriel.
00:58:08What's left for us now.
00:58:10So it was all just a lie?
00:58:12No, we're done here.
00:58:14Go enjoy your freedom, old man.
00:58:22You're hurting me!
00:58:24Seriously, let me go!
00:58:31What a performance. It was Oscar worthy even.
00:58:34I mean, no, they really ate that out.
00:58:36Well, now be a good girl and come ready for our wedding.
00:58:40Keep dreaming.
00:58:42I'd rather die than marry an asshole like you.
00:58:45And that guy, you pissed me off.
00:58:47And he'll be back in cuffs before you could even blink.
00:58:51It's up to you, sweetheart.
00:58:55It's simple.
00:58:57Just do everything I say, or he's as good as gone.
00:59:07Miss Hartwood, your checkup report is ready.
00:59:10You're pregnant.
00:59:12I'm pregnant?
00:59:13That's right. Congratulations.
00:59:16Please check your first prenatal checkup ASAP.
00:59:24Gorgeous.
00:59:25It's just still too covered up.
00:59:28Gotta show some more skin.
00:59:32Yeah, see, this one works.
00:59:37Way hotter.
00:59:39You're a pig.
00:59:42Hey, I am not as patient as my dad.
00:59:46You fuck with me and you know exactly what'll happen.
00:59:52Hm?
00:59:53Let her go!
00:59:55Now!
00:59:58Dad, I'm trying to steal my fiancee.
01:00:01Really?
01:00:02Good luck with that.
01:00:02Yeah.
01:00:05I had this made for you.
01:00:07I was saving it for our way.
01:00:09Even if that day doesn't come,
01:00:10I still want you to shine.
01:00:15Thank you, Gabriel.
01:00:19I'm sorry to ruin this moment,
01:00:20but we've got a venue to go to, right?
01:00:30Miss Hardwood, I wanted to confirm your prenatal appointment.
01:00:35W-what did you just say?
01:00:37Is this not Clarissa Hardwood?
01:00:39Sorry, must be the wrong number.
01:00:50Larissa, why didn't you tell me you're pregnant?
01:00:57What should I tell you?
01:00:59The baby's not yours.
01:01:02Larissa, why are you doing this to me?
01:01:06Why can't you just be honest with me?
01:01:08What makes you so sure it's yours?
01:01:10Just stay out of it.
01:01:12Andre and I, we make sense.
01:01:15We fit better together than you and I ever did.
01:01:21Wait.
01:01:23Keep this a secret from Andre.
01:01:25I want to surprise him at our wedding.
01:01:40Surprise, huh?
01:01:45Yeah.
01:01:46Surprise.
01:01:47We'll just have to wait and see though.
01:02:01We are here today to witness the union of Andre Storm and Clarissa Hartwood.
01:02:07Andre, do you take Clarissa to be your lawfully wedded wife?
01:02:11Yes, I do.
01:02:13And Clarissa, do you take Andre to be your lawfully wedded husband?
01:02:18I see it.
01:02:19So I don't want to make sure he rots in jail.
01:02:22I am so sorry, Gabriel.
01:02:23I never wanted this.
01:02:25I did it all for you.
01:02:27Stop.
01:02:32Stop.
01:02:36What the hell do you think you're doing?
01:02:38Clarissa, I'm so sorry.
01:02:40I'm getting you out of here.
01:02:46Let me go.
01:02:48Andre will kill you for this.
01:02:50Stop.
01:02:50Don't you dare.
01:02:51Let me go.
01:02:52You're ruining my day, dad.
01:02:54Stop.
01:02:54Stop.
01:02:58Gabriel, take me back.
01:02:59You have no idea what you and Andre will do.
01:03:02Clarissa, listen.
01:03:04Cops are hauling him away as we speak.
01:03:06Alright?
01:03:07It's going to be hard for him to get revenge from a jail cell.
01:03:09What are you talking about?
01:03:10I showed them all the evidence to prove that he tried to set me up.
01:03:13Probably grilling him as we speak.
01:03:16You scared me half to death.
01:03:18Listen.
01:03:19Jessica told me everything.
01:03:20It's all behind us now.
01:03:22The only thing that matters is our future.
01:03:24So, Clarissa Hartwood.
01:03:31Would you allow me the honor to be father to our child?
01:03:36Yes.
01:03:55I told you you're my princess.
01:03:57Come on.
01:03:58Let's go.
01:04:01It's Hartwood.
01:04:03Your chariot awaits.
01:04:05Thank you so much.
01:04:06Get used to it, Clarissa.
01:04:08I'm going to show you how much I love you every single day.
01:04:11I love you, Gabriel.
01:04:16I love you, Gabriel.
01:04:31You ready?
01:04:32Yes.
01:04:34Let's go.
01:04:35Let's do it.
01:04:44Ouch.
01:04:47Is that payback for all the times I made mommy cry?
01:04:50Looks like someone's learning how to steal mommy's attention.
01:04:54Atta boy.
01:05:02Hey, looks like we have a little chaperone on our hands.
01:05:05Well, I guess we'll just have to wait until he's asleep then, huh?
01:05:11You know, he cries a lot like you. That's how I know you're his mother.
01:05:15Oh, hey. All right.
