00:00:13Hey.
00:00:16Ah, Nicky, my boy.
00:00:18Mr. Richardson.
00:00:20Call me Dad.
00:00:22Ah, Dad.
00:00:23You know, I can't tell you how happy I am
00:00:26that you decided to go through with this sight unseen,
00:00:29but I promise you, you won't regret it.
00:00:31My daughter is a brilliant woman.
00:00:33She's got an even better head for business than I do.
00:00:36I don't even know how that's even possible.
00:00:38No, no, it's true.
00:00:40And after this wedding, when our businesses merge,
00:00:44the sky will be the limit.
00:00:45Right, and I just want to thank you for your trust
00:00:48and for the match, Dad.
00:00:50Even though I would have loved to have met your daughter
00:00:52before the wedding day, I hear she's beautiful.
00:00:55I hear she's amazing, and I'm really looking forward to it.
00:00:57She is.
00:00:58And I'll just tell you this.
00:01:01She's my favorite daughter.
00:01:03Oh, really?
00:01:05You're a very lucky man.
00:01:06Thank you, sir.
00:01:08All right.
00:01:08Take care, buddy.
00:01:10My God.
00:01:11He's so handsome.
00:01:12I can't believe I'm marrying him today.
00:01:16Congratulations, Nick.
00:01:18Marrying Jack Richardson's daughter,
00:01:19that's like winning the lottery.
00:01:21Wow, yeah, I think the same.
00:01:22Trust me.
00:01:23The moment you see her in the dress, you'll faint.
00:01:24Wow.
00:01:25Okay.
00:01:26Thank you, fellas.
00:01:27I'll see you out there.
00:01:28I really hope he likes what he sees.
00:01:31He's so beautiful and handsome, and I...
00:01:47Please all rise for the bride.
00:02:16That's who I'm marrying you?
00:02:19Oh, my God.
00:02:20Is that the bride?
00:02:22I was sure he was marrying the pretty sister.
00:02:24Why didn't he choose her?
00:02:26She's clearly the hotter sister.
00:02:32Our eyes are so beautiful.
00:02:44Oh, my God.
00:02:47Oh, no.
00:02:48A comet hit Earth.
00:02:49Poor guy.
00:02:50What a night awaits him.
00:02:51Oh, that's got to weigh heavy on him.
00:02:53Look at that dress.
00:02:54It's very bitter.
00:03:17He's a gentleman, too, just like I thought.
00:03:24Are you all right?
00:03:26Yeah.
00:03:27I'm okay.
00:03:29Nothing can ruin today.
00:03:30We're getting married.
00:03:34Shall we go?
00:03:36We shall.
00:03:40I didn't know whales could walk.
00:03:49Oh.
00:03:52I didn't know asses could swim.
00:03:56Today's my wedding day, and if you try and ruin it again, you'll be the one that people are whispering
00:04:02about.
00:04:04Okay.
00:04:05I like that.
00:04:18I'm ready.
00:04:21Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to witness the union of Nick and Claudia, who are entering into holy
00:04:30matrimony with the help of God and of their family.
00:04:36Nick, do you take Claudia as your wife?
00:04:45What should I do?
00:04:48Please say yes.
00:04:50I'm so confused.
00:04:53I do.
00:04:57Claudia, do you take Nick as your husband?
00:05:03I've waited for this moment my whole life.
00:05:06I do.
00:05:07I do.
00:05:26Nothing will ruin this day.
00:05:30Nick, you may now kiss your bride.
00:05:44Your lips feel so soft.
00:05:48He's kissing me for real.
00:05:56By the power vested in me, by the state of California, I hereby declare you husband and wife.
00:06:06I can't believe it.
00:06:08It's official.
00:06:09We're married.
00:06:14I need to go talk with some guests.
00:06:16Yeah.
00:06:18Yeah.
00:06:40You're married.
00:06:40I have a different type of food.
00:06:42Oh the dream is a dream.
00:06:43You're a dream.
00:06:44I am a dream.
00:06:46I'm a dream.
00:06:47I'm a dream.
00:06:48I'm a dream.
00:06:48Sorry if that sounded mean.
00:06:51I just, I'm really worried about you.
00:06:54So, I'm debating whether or not I should tell you this.
00:06:58Tell me what?
00:07:00Cheers.
00:07:02I overheard Nick having a conversation with his friend.
00:07:07Yeah, and what did he say?
00:07:09He said he only married you because of the merger.
00:07:15Well, yeah, I mean, the whole marriage was born out of the merger.
00:07:20But that's it, Claudia.
00:07:22Nick was looking forward to the wedding because he thought he was going to marry me.
00:07:30What?
00:07:32No.
00:07:33No, you're making this up.
00:07:35I know you.
00:07:36No, Claudia.
00:07:38And you saw for yourself how surprised he was.
00:07:41This is how surprised everybody was.
00:07:45And here you are, on your wedding day, stuffing your face with cream puffs.
00:07:50Alone, with a ring that barely fits you.
00:07:54If he didn't know he was going to be marrying me, why did he say I do?
00:07:59Other than the merger?
00:08:02Because he pities you, obviously.
00:08:09You really are pitiful.
00:08:14And you, Joy, are jealous.
00:08:16And a liar.
00:08:18Oh, you think so?
00:08:19Well, if you don't believe me, then watch this.
00:08:30Choke.
00:08:32Hey.
00:08:35Yes?
00:08:44Just stop.
00:08:46Hey, there's my beautiful bride.
00:08:50Not now, Roy.
00:08:51I'm too upset.
00:08:52Oh.
00:08:53No.
00:08:54Uh-uh.
00:08:55We are not going to let your basic biatch of a sister ruin your wedding night for you.
00:09:00She already has.
00:09:01Don't forget that tonight, that lusciously handsome man is going to sleep with you.
00:09:07Not her.
00:09:09You're right.
00:09:10He's mine tonight.
00:09:16Did he really not want to marry me?
00:09:19Was he disappointed when he saw me?
00:09:21Is all he sees in me a fat woman?
00:09:24Claudia!
00:09:25Enough!
00:09:26You've let Joy get into your head your whole life.
00:09:28Don't let her ruin tonight, too.
00:09:33Joy's lying.
00:09:35Nick said yes.
00:09:37He wasn't forced to marry me.
00:09:40He's, uh, he's out there waiting for me to come out there and make love to him all night long.
00:09:51Get it, Claudia.
00:09:53Get it.
00:09:55Get it, Claudia.
00:09:56Get it.
00:10:04Nick?
00:10:13Nick?
00:10:18Nick, it's our wedding night.
00:10:21Don't you want to...
00:10:23What kind of man falls asleep on his wedding night?
00:10:28A man who's unattracted to his wife, that's who.
00:10:32Oh, no.
00:10:41I can't, Claudia.
00:10:43Not yet.
00:10:44I'm sorry.
00:10:52Oh, where are you going?
00:10:54I actually have a big Mrs. Brunch with some potential investors.
00:10:58Oh, I see.
00:11:00Um, I'll be ready to go and just...
00:11:01So, uh, no, I, uh, so these investors, they don't particularly know that our companies
00:11:09are emerging, so I think this one might be better if I just take it alone.
00:11:13My father left the business for me to manage, and we're going to do that together.
00:11:19So, we should show that we can do that, that we are a strong couple, and business, and love.
00:11:27Mm-hmm.
00:11:28Strong couple.
00:11:29Yeah.
00:11:32Right.
00:11:43Look, just please be polite, and let me do all the talking.
00:11:47We have a lot of investments to secure, and do not dump any champagne onto somebody's head.
00:11:53If it's one time.
00:12:01Here he is, boys.
00:12:04Hello, hello, everyone.
00:12:06I apologize profusely for my tardiness, but it looks like you guys got started, ordered
00:12:11some food.
00:12:11That's great.
00:12:13Dave, I heard you had an amazing Q1.
00:12:15I'd love to enter into the sector that you guys were talking about.
00:12:18Hi.
00:12:19I'm Claudia, Nick's wife and partner in managing the business.
00:12:25Oh, yeah.
00:12:26Claudia, I've heard a lot about you.
00:12:28You're a pretty big deal.
00:12:31You're the heiress that forced Nick kicking and screaming to marry for the merger.
00:12:35Yeah, right.
00:12:39No, just wait a minute, Dave.
00:12:41I don't really care how much money you have.
00:12:44I don't need you to disrespect my wife like that, and I demand you to give her an apology.
00:12:52Yeah?
00:12:53Or else what?
00:12:54Come on, Sterling, you're just a pretender.
00:12:56Without the merger with you and this Whales family, you wouldn't even be invited to this
00:13:01table.
00:13:01So why don't you just sit back and learn from the big boys?
00:13:05Hmm.
00:13:05Pretender, huh?
00:13:07That's rich.
00:13:08Coming from someone wearing a dollar store toupee.
00:13:11Dave, I know who you are, Dave, and I know your company's financial situation.
00:13:20What I don't know is what you're doing at this table considering you don't have a dollar left
00:13:29to invest.
00:13:32You had to take out a loan last month for payroll.
00:13:38I'd stay quiet.
00:13:44I'm taking this.
00:13:54It's for the best that he left anyway.
00:13:57Anyway, he'd skip out on the bill.
00:14:00Claudia, we talked about keeping a low profile, and you're making us a little bit.
00:14:30Why is she acting like this?
00:14:32She could blow this whole deal.
00:14:35Claudia.
00:14:38All right, gentlemen and ladies.
00:14:40Now that we're all here, except for Dave, of course, I want to speak about the state
00:14:47of the economy right now.
00:14:49We know it's in a depression, and that's why I think foreign assets is the thing we need
00:14:53to invest in.
00:14:53Before we go on a tangent about foreign companies, we shouldn't write off local businesses so quickly.
00:15:03My company and Nick's are about to go through a massive merger, and when that happens, our
00:15:09stock prices are about to go through the roof.
00:15:11The time to invest is now, before it's too late.
00:15:18I never got pitched by a talking cake before.
00:15:22Oh, if anything is going to explode, it's her.
00:15:31Claudia, sit down and stop talking.
00:15:33Clean yourself up, for God's sakes.
00:15:54Good thing she left.
00:15:55I'm not interested in investing in a company run by someone like that.
00:15:59Then don't invest.
00:16:01In fact, none of you should invest, because I don't want to affiliate with any of you small-minded
00:16:08fools.
00:16:17Roy, it's me.
00:16:19Can you come pick me up, please?
00:16:22Oh my God, honey.
00:16:23Yes, stay calm.
00:16:24I'll be right there.
00:16:35What do you want?
00:16:37I just want to talk to you really quick.
00:16:39About what?
00:16:40Just calm down.
00:16:41I will not calm down, and there is nothing to talk about.
00:16:48You're ashamed of me.
00:16:49You're embarrassed by me.
00:16:52And you'd have already given up on this whole marriage if it wasn't for your fascist merger, right?
00:16:59Right?
00:16:59Yes.
00:17:00Yes, okay.
00:17:01You embarrass me, all right?
00:17:03You can't just stand up in front of a bunch of business sharks with lemon meringue pie smear
00:17:07all over your face.
00:17:08Who's going to listen to you?
00:17:09Who's going to take you seriously when you look like a fucking...
00:17:14Like what, Nick?
00:17:17Like what, Nick?
00:17:31Is that all you see in me?
00:17:41You know, you wouldn't be the first.
00:17:45That's what anybody sees when they look at me.
00:17:49But you want to know what really breaks my heart?
00:17:53Is that you will never get a chance to realize that I am so much more than that.
00:18:07Goodbye, Nick.
00:18:08Goodbye?
00:18:09What?
00:18:10Hey, Claudia, just...
00:18:13Claudia, please!
00:18:16Claudia, wait!
00:18:17Please, just give me one second!
00:18:19Claudia, please!
00:18:24Claudia, wait!
00:18:25What are you doing?
00:18:28Claudia!
00:18:29Go.
00:18:30You're really just going to leave?
00:18:37Oh, my God, girl.
00:18:40What happened to you?
00:18:41Nick really didn't want me.
00:18:45He thought he was marrying the thin and beautiful Richardson Dodd
00:18:51and not the fat and disgusting one, not me.
00:18:57You just knock it right off with that nonsense.
00:19:00No, but I...
00:19:02No, I can't!
00:19:04He doesn't want me!
00:19:07I don't know what to do now.
00:19:11You don't need to do anything.
00:19:13You are perfect and a beautiful queen, okay?
00:19:19And if stupid Nick doesn't recognize that, it's his problem.
00:19:25You hear me?
00:19:29Earth to Claudia.
00:19:31I refuse to feel like this anymore.
00:19:35There we go.
00:19:36Yes!
00:19:38You just need to be yourself, okay?
00:19:41So you got some extra weight.
00:19:43Time to throw it around.
00:19:44That's not what I mean.
00:19:47For years, I have barely left the house.
00:19:51The looks, the put-downs.
00:19:54It was all too painful.
00:19:57I had hoped that Nick would see beyond the outside and love me for who I am.
00:20:05But how could he?
00:20:07I'm a whale.
00:20:09Why couldn't I have been born with Joy's perfect genetics?
00:20:14A. Joy's a bitch, so she's far from perfect girl.
00:20:18But B. How can he love you as you are when you don't love you as you are?
00:20:28Hey.
00:20:29Do you remember that guy you dated?
00:20:32The one who went to the health center?
00:20:34Of course.
00:20:35He came back a different person, Abs, to die for.
00:20:38I want the address.
00:20:40Of the wellness estate?
00:20:42Yeah.
00:20:43What are you planning?
00:20:46I am so sick of not loving what I see in the mirror.
00:20:50But I am even more sick of what others see.
00:20:55Fat.
00:20:57Nothing else.
00:21:00I refuse to be humiliated anymore.
00:21:04I'm going to take my life into my own hands and make everyone who ever laughed at me regret it.
00:21:13I can do this.
00:21:15And when I get back, Nick will beg to be with me.
00:21:35It's time for a change.
00:21:44Oh, God.
00:21:46I can't do this.
00:21:58Heck, it's our wedding night.
00:22:01Don't you want to?
00:22:06No.
00:22:07I can do this.
00:22:09From today on, old Claudia is dead.
00:22:17Champagne whispers in denial.
00:22:19There's a laughing down the eye.
00:22:22He can't beat her.
00:22:23You're strong.
00:22:25You can do this.
00:22:27You can't say the perfect night.
00:22:28Fell apart before the start.
00:22:30Still she said I'd do.
00:22:33Every look, every word.
00:22:34Cut deeper than it hurt.
00:22:36She was drowning in the noise.
00:22:39But silence made her worse.
00:22:41Now she's back like a wildfire.
00:22:43Dancing on the same old scars.
00:22:47Yeah, she burned who she was before.
00:22:52Now I don't know who you are.
00:22:56Shh.
00:22:58They choose me.
00:22:59I can do it.
00:23:03She came back different.
00:23:12She came back different
00:23:25Claudia? Is that you?
00:23:37I need to talk to you about the meeting with Gilder Brothers.
00:23:39Gilder Brothers, that sounds fine.
00:23:43Okay, Nick. Snap out of it. You need to pull yourself together and act like a goddamn CEO.
00:23:50Look, I should have just listened to Claudia. She was right about everything, Joy. Everything
00:23:57that she said at that stupid brunch, it all came true. The trend is to invest into local
00:24:02companies with strong mergers. She saw that months ahead of any of us. And I had to be stupid and
00:24:08drive her away and ruin everything. And she was the best thing that happened to this company. She was.
00:24:38What's done is done. You have a business to run. And I am here as your partner to make sure
00:24:45that that
00:24:46happens. So man up and let go of your fat ex could have been wife already. How can you speak
00:24:52about her
00:24:53like that? She's your sister. And how can I function knowing that I drove my wife away and I don't
00:24:59even
00:24:59know where she's been for the last three months? Nick. What? Accept it. There is no more Claudia.
00:25:06She disappeared, ran away. She is not coming back. I'm here. I'm here.
00:25:18She is not coming back. I'm here. Who is that? Wow.
00:25:37I know those eyes.
00:25:44Um, okay. You're here. But I don't think you should be. I think you're mistaken about the offices.
00:25:52No, I'm not mistaken.
00:25:56I heard this rumor while I was away that you were trying to destroy the company that
00:26:01our father gave to me. So I'm here to save it.
00:26:08Claudia? Claudia?
00:26:10Oh, oh, right. This is Claudia. Yeah. Maybe one third of her. I don't know who you are or how
00:26:18you
00:26:18got past security, but this is a board meeting and only authorized officers are allowed to participate.
00:26:24Yes, I know that because I'm the legal heir and the majority owner of this company. So I am more
00:26:30than
00:26:31authorized to be here and be present for the board meeting.
00:26:35Legal heir? Oh, nice try. But this is my family's company. And I think I would know a relative if
00:26:44she were standing right in front of me. Now enough is enough. You should leave before I have security
00:26:49drag you out. What's going on here? Have I really changed so much that even my sister doesn't recognize
00:26:56me? I wonder if Nick recognizes me? Something about her feels familiar. Is it her?
00:27:07Security? Hi, yes. There's an intruder in the conference room. Can you please come and remove
00:27:13her? No need. Carl, I told you there might be drama. Sorry, Mrs. Richardson. Miss Richardson?
00:27:23See? Security will not be kicking me out of the conference room of the business that my dad built
00:27:29and gave to me. I'm not going anywhere. I am Claudia.
00:27:38Oh, that's it. This woman is a lying imposter. Nick, you're the boss for God's sake. Do something.
00:27:46Okay. If you're my wife, then where's our wedding ring?
00:27:54Wow. They really don't recognize me. Nick, you know that our marriage was over
00:28:03before it even started. Remember? You never once looked at me like I was your wife,
00:28:09so why would I wear your ring? I don't understand. Is this really you, Claudia?
00:28:26Yes. It's really me. She has the ring. Maybe it really is her.
00:28:32But you know what? It fits just right now.
00:28:45Claudia, I was looking for you this entire time, and I'm so sorry. I was worried about you.
00:28:53I really am so sorry.
00:28:57Nick, don't fall for this scam. Do you not think I wouldn't recognize my own sister? This is not Claudia.
00:29:09This is not Claudia. I mean, we all remember what Claudia looked like. She was huge, fat, a whale.
00:29:18There is no chance that this woman is Claudia. Claudia, I swear that I looked for you everywhere ever since
00:29:27you left.
00:29:30Claudia, wait. You're really just gonna leave?
00:29:34It has been months. How is it even possible that no one's found her? Do your job and find her.
00:29:42It really is you. You are so beautiful.
00:29:47This is all I wanted. For him to look at me like this.
00:29:53Finally. But it's too late. I will never forgive him for how he made me feel.
00:29:58Thanks. But I don't need this anymore.
00:30:12Oh, it's clear now. Claudia is so ashamed of her weight that she hired some actress to impersonate her.
00:30:23It's pathetic, but it makes sense. You know what's pathetic, Joy?
00:30:28Is you preferring to believe that your own sister would do something so insane instead of believing that I had
00:30:36the willpower and the drive to make a positive change.
00:30:39Please.
00:30:40The only thing Claudia could ever summon the willpower and drive to do was close down a buffet.
00:30:47She couldn't keep her fat mouth shut.
00:30:50Maybe that's something you two have in common.
00:30:53I'm warning you, Joy.
00:30:56You don't get to shit talk me anymore. The days of you speaking to me like this are over.
00:31:02Maybe this is really Claudia standing in front of me.
00:31:05No way.
00:31:07Nick, throw her out.
00:31:13Claudia, where did you go?
00:31:15Enough with the circuses! Throw the bitch out!
00:31:18Claudia? Is that you?
00:31:23Claudia? Is that you?
00:31:26Claudia, I was worried sick!
00:31:30Finally! Where have you been this whole time?
00:31:32I had to take control of my life, Dad.
00:31:34And I'm sorry, I didn't mean to worry you.
00:31:37Why are you so thin?
00:31:39What happened? Where are these two sweet rolls that I love so much?
00:31:44Only you loved them, Dad.
00:31:46Dad, don't embarrass yourself.
00:31:48This is not the real Claudia. This is some imposter actress that she is.
00:31:52Please!
00:31:54Nonsense. Of course, this is Claudia.
00:31:56You think a father would know his own daughter?
00:31:59And here you are, trying to throw her out of her own office?
00:32:02No, there's... there's no chance that...
00:32:05Shush.
00:32:07Nick?
00:32:09Now you have by your side the most brilliant
00:32:12and smart woman that I have ever known.
00:32:14And I hope you keep to your promise, and you run this company with her.
00:32:22Yes.
00:32:23I promise, now that Claudia is back, that together, as partners,
00:32:28we can build this company up to an empire.
00:32:33So, Claudia...
00:32:34What do you say, partners?
00:32:42Why, whenever he looks at me, does my heart skip a bee?
00:32:46No. No, stop it, Claudia.
00:32:49This is not part of the plan.
00:32:50Get a grip.
00:33:07So, are we all now familiar with the hierarchy of this company?
00:33:13Fantastic. Then let's get to work, because we have a lot of work to do.
00:33:18You mentioned something about a board meeting?
00:33:20Yes, I did.
00:33:22If everyone wants to turn to page three in their portfolios, we can get started.
00:33:29It's just like the data indicates.
00:33:31Right now, the market is looking for reliability and stability.
00:33:36So, if we can convince them that our company is the solid rock in the middle of a stormy sea,
00:33:41then we can recruit the correct investors.
00:33:45Let's do it.
00:33:57Hey, great job running the meeting earlier.
00:33:59Your dad was spot on when he said that you were sharp, attentive...
00:34:03I don't have time for flattery. I have to go.
00:34:06Uh, go where exactly?
00:34:11Well, I am your husband and we do live together. Did you forget?
00:34:18Come on, Nick.
00:34:20Did you really think I was going to live in the same house as you?
00:34:23Well, yes, because we are married.
00:34:26Aren't we?
00:34:26On paper, yes.
00:34:29I am your wife for the good of the company and its success.
00:34:37But we're not a real couple.
00:34:40You only married me for the merger. Let's not rewrite history.
00:34:43No, no, no. Hey, that's not how I saw the marriage.
00:34:46Oh, really?
00:34:48So, you don't remember ditching me the night of our wedding or the morning after?
00:34:53You look like you swallowed poison.
00:34:55Claudia, I...
00:34:56You were ashamed of me, embarrassed.
00:34:59I remember everything.
00:35:03Okay, yes.
00:35:05Maybe I was, but I...
00:35:08You ready to go home?
00:35:11Oh, so that's how it is.
00:35:14While I was gone, they became a couple.
00:35:16Just like he wanted.
00:35:18And now he's just trying to play the field.
00:35:22Typical pig.
00:35:29Stop.
00:35:31Hey, don't get worked up over Claudia.
00:35:33I mean, she's just being dramatic.
00:35:35Look, I need you to find your own ride.
00:35:37I need some quiet.
00:35:40Claudia's back.
00:35:41That's not good.
00:35:43I have to act before I completely lose the chance to make Nick mine.
00:36:07Oh, my God, bro, you should have seen it.
00:36:08I mean, they didn't even recognize me.
00:36:10I mean, except, like, my dad, of course.
00:36:13I mean, you do look like a whole new person.
00:36:15You can't blame them.
00:36:16And?
00:36:17How about your hot stud of a husband, huh?
00:36:19What did he think?
00:36:20Nick?
00:36:21Mm-hmm.
00:36:23Nick looked at me like I always dreamt he would.
00:36:27I mean, he couldn't even take his eyes off me.
00:36:29I bet.
00:36:30Look at you.
00:36:32You know, no one's ever looked at me like...
00:36:37Like a woman?
00:36:39Like an attractive, worthy woman.
00:36:43Hell yeah.
00:36:44Get it.
00:36:47No, no, no, no.
00:36:49We are not getting too excited, okay?
00:36:51Because I know exactly who Nick is.
00:36:54And it's, like, exactly how I thought it was.
00:36:56He's with Joy now, right?
00:36:58And next time I see him, I'm gonna tell him exactly how much I hate him.
00:37:05How does that feel?
00:37:06So good.
00:37:11Some guy touching my wife?
00:37:13Has she already found someone else?
00:37:15Wait, that's the guy who picked her up when she left me?
00:37:18Has she been with him this whole time?
00:37:20Why don't you keep playing here, Claudia?
00:37:29Is Claudia in there?
00:37:30Um, well, she...
00:37:32I better not find her naked, buddy.
00:37:33I kind of doubt that.
00:37:36Yeah, really?
00:37:38Claudia.
00:37:45There you are.
00:37:46What is going on here?
00:37:47You?
00:37:49I don't owe you an explanation.
00:37:51And by what right are you following me?
00:37:53By the right that we are married.
00:37:55Okay, you've disappeared for three months.
00:37:57You show up at this man's house.
00:37:58What kind of behavior is that?
00:37:59Is it possible he's actually jealous?
00:38:04Listen, I can explain.
00:38:06And you, how dare you seduce another man's woman?
00:38:09I'm gonna teach you a frickin' lesson!
00:38:11I'm gonna teach you a frickin' lesson!
00:38:17Oh my god, what is wrong with you?
00:38:18Do not hurt Roy!
00:38:20I'm not gonna let my wife's lover just walk out without a fuckin' fight!
00:38:22Enough!
00:38:24Enough.
00:38:29Okay.
00:38:32Roy is not my lover.
00:38:35Roy is letting me stay here because he is a very, very good friend.
00:38:39Oh, sure.
00:38:41The friend that she tells you not to worry about, is that it?
00:38:43Oh, you know what?
00:38:45Even if you was my lover, it would be none of your business.
00:38:49Because we are married on paper and I owe you nothing.
00:38:53How do you expect me to believe that this, this, this handsome man over here is just giving you a
00:38:58massage
00:38:59and he isn't your lover?
00:39:00If you couldn't tell, she's not exactly my type.
00:39:03And as for you, while I'm flattered, you think I'm handsome.
00:39:07I'm spoken for.
00:39:09Pablo is the jealous type.
00:39:13Pablo.
00:39:17Jesus, um...
00:39:19Look, I'm sorry, okay?
00:39:21I didn't know.
00:39:24It's okay.
00:39:26But look, look, you have to understand me, okay?
00:39:28Look, she was gone and disappeared for months.
00:39:31You had me worried.
00:39:33You show up to the office.
00:39:34You don't say a word to me.
00:39:35And you just show up at this man's house.
00:39:37And so...
00:39:39Claudia, would...
00:39:41Would you just come, come back home with me, please?
00:39:46Why does he want me back so badly?
00:39:49Look, think about how this looks, okay?
00:39:51We are married and you can't be staying over at another man's house.
00:39:55That just screams crisis.
00:39:58All right?
00:39:58And you were the one who said that we needed stability, right?
00:40:02And your father trusts you.
00:40:04Of course, he cares about the company, not me.
00:40:08What was I thinking?
00:40:10So?
00:40:12What do you say?
00:40:13You said that you were coming back to build an empire.
00:40:17She's right.
00:40:19If the two top executives who are supposed to be married look unstable, investors will panic.
00:40:31Fine.
00:40:33But we sleep in separate rooms.
00:40:35We are business partners.
00:40:37That's it.
00:40:40Yes.
00:40:41Yes.
00:40:42That's fine.
00:40:43Just as long as you come back home with me.
00:40:46You say anything.
00:40:54Mom.
00:40:54Okay.
00:41:23Why is my heart beating?
00:41:24Why is my heart beating like this?
00:41:26For once, she's giving me a genuine smile. She likes when I hold her.
00:41:31No, I must not fall into his trap.
00:41:38Um, what are you doing creeping around at night?
00:41:44Because it is my house and I'm hungry. Are you hungry too? I can maybe-
00:41:49No, I don't eat at night.
00:41:52Oh, well that's a shame because I have a whole refrigerator full of some pretty amazing leftovers.
00:41:58Maybe we can have a decadent midnight meal. I have lasagna from Roberto's or I think I even have some
00:42:03Pad Thai in there.
00:42:05Um, eating at night is not healthy and you shouldn't do it either.
00:42:12I just wanted to get some water, that's all. Um, and we have the investor conference tomorrow.
00:42:19And I know it's only one day, but I do need to pack.
00:42:27She drives me crazy. What am I supposed to do?
00:42:38You know, I feel like we should be sharing a room. Two rooms just looks a little strange, don't you
00:42:44think?
00:42:45Nobody's gonna know.
00:42:46Mm-hmm.
00:42:47And I am not sharing a room with you.
00:42:51Oh, that is Noah Hart. He is the CEO of EPS. He's the biggest investor here.
00:42:57Nick Sterling.
00:42:58Yes, good to see you.
00:42:59Good to see you again.
00:43:01And who might this stunning woman be?
00:43:03Oh, this stunning and beautiful woman is my... is my wife. And we run the company together.
00:43:09Wow, that's a rare deal. Difficult to navigate, I imagine.
00:43:14Well, only when there's not trust. But with the love and friendship and respect that we have for each other,
00:43:23it's... effortless.
00:43:27A couple united at the top is unstoppable.
00:43:30I agree.
00:43:33Sounds impressive. How about three of us get together for a meeting sometime?
00:43:37Perfect. Yes, our office will contact you.
00:43:43Wow, that was amazing. I mean, did you mean any of that?
00:43:50No. No, of course not. I'm just saying what I need to so that our company can have success.
00:43:58Right.
00:44:03Are you coming or what?
00:44:05Yeah, let's... let's go.
00:44:09Here we are. To celebrate.
00:44:13Okay. Who else do we need to talk to here?
00:44:15Did you see how Noah Hart reacted to us?
00:44:18If we can get an investor like that to invest in us, everything's set.
00:44:23You know, we're pretty powerful when we work together. Sky is the limit.
00:44:26Yes, we will meet with him soon and then we can end this performance.
00:44:31Performance?
00:44:33Claudia, what are you talking about? What? This doesn't have to be fake. We can actually be...
00:44:39Friends. We...
00:44:41We can still be friends, right?
00:44:43I mean, you don't have to keep acting like you hate me so much.
00:44:46Look, I don't... hate you.
00:44:50But I do remember everything.
00:44:54How ashamed you were of me and how small you made me feel.
00:44:58And I can't forget that.
00:45:00I will never forgive you for that.
00:45:08We're here to do business.
00:45:10We're never gonna be friends.
00:45:12If you could just give me one...
00:45:35I think I saw Wyatt Moore. We should go talk with him.
00:45:38Look, I'm not in the mood for business right now, okay?
00:45:41Trouble in paradise, huh?
00:45:43I think I saw Wyatt Moore. We should go talk with him.
00:45:46Come.
00:45:48I know what you need.
00:45:53Wow.
00:45:56Joy, I just...
00:45:58I just don't understand.
00:45:59I mean, why is Claudia being so cold to me?
00:46:03I know. I know, baby.
00:46:05I mean, I don't get it.
00:46:07Look, I guess I deserve it a little bit, but...
00:46:09Don't I deserve another chance?
00:46:12I mean, we are married. Doesn't that count for something?
00:46:14Yes.
00:46:15And it's really sad.
00:46:18She doesn't appreciate you and...
00:46:21She never will.
00:46:23Right.
00:46:24I mean, maybe you're right. I don't know.
00:46:28You know, maybe it was never meant to be.
00:46:32Maybe you married the wrong sister.
00:46:36Come on. Let's go to your room.
00:46:39No one has to know.
00:46:47Wait. No. No. What are you doing? I'm married.
00:46:51To a woman who doesn't want you.
00:46:53But I, on the other hand, I would appreciate you.
00:46:57I would take care of you.
00:46:59No, no. I would never cheat on Claudia.
00:47:02I'm gonna go. I'm gonna find her. I'm gonna bring her back to me.
00:47:09We are projecting aggressive growth this year.
00:47:12In your current expansion timeline?
00:47:14Our goal is about three to four months to start some significant improvement.
00:47:17Claudia, I need to talk to you right now.
00:47:19Nick, I am in the middle of a really great conversation.
00:47:22Yeah, yeah. I just, I need to talk to you right now.
00:47:26Can you just clue?
00:47:28Have you been drinking?
00:47:31A little bit.
00:47:32Wait a minute.
00:47:33Isn't this your CEO?
00:47:37Is he drunk?
00:47:40That's how you guys run things?
00:47:45That's how you guys run things?
00:47:46No, no, absolutely not. I'm so sorry.
00:47:50Professional.
00:47:51One second.
00:47:53What is wrong with you? You smell like a bar.
00:47:55I don't care about any of these investors, okay?
00:47:58You should because right now we are here trying to find investors
00:48:00and you are actively destroying any chance we have of doing that.
00:48:03How do you expect me to talk to any of these investors
00:48:06when my own wife won't even talk to me?
00:48:08Oh my God, please, for the love of God, don't do this right now.
00:48:11What? Well then when?
00:48:13I want to do it right now because you are just constantly avoiding me.
00:48:17Okay, you want to do it right now?
00:48:19Go.
00:48:19Our wedding day was supposed to be the happiest day of my life
00:48:23and instead it was the loneliest.
00:48:25And all the humiliation and the mockery, yeah, that really hurt.
00:48:29But the thing that hurt the worst was the sheer luck of disappointment that I got from you.
00:48:35You know I never meant to hurt you.
00:48:37Then what did you mean?
00:48:38Look, I was excited, okay?
00:48:41And I guess I just got surprised.
00:48:43Because I was expecting something else, I don't know.
00:48:47My sister, right?
00:48:50The beautiful one.
00:48:52The thin one.
00:48:54And instead you went home with the fat, pathetic one.
00:48:58Claudia, stop.
00:48:58No, I'm not going to stop.
00:49:00I will not stop, Nick, because I can't even blame you.
00:49:04But I can't forgive you.
00:49:07You can't forgive me?
00:49:08I mean, I feel like I deserve a second chance, okay?
00:49:13And look, I know I mishandled the whole wedding, but it was bad for me too.
00:49:19And to be honest, I am just less attracted to larger women.
00:49:23And look, maybe that is unfair to say, but it is at least the truth.
00:49:28And let me point out something else.
00:49:30You were the one that ran away.
00:49:33Not me.
00:49:35I stayed.
00:49:37For us.
00:49:38Regardless of all that.
00:49:40You left me.
00:49:46And we could be great together.
00:49:51We could be a true power couple.
00:49:53Look, and I have thought of you every day since you left.
00:49:56And not because of all this.
00:50:01Before all that, I was thinking about your strength.
00:50:04I was thinking about your mind.
00:50:05I was thinking about your heart.
00:50:08And to be completely honest, now I am just insanely attracted to you.
00:50:16So, tell me you don't feel anything.
00:50:22That's not true.
00:50:25Well then, well then say it.
00:50:26Okay, I'm attracted to you.
00:50:29I am.
00:50:31But I...
00:50:35You...
00:50:35Are so perfect, Claudia.
00:50:39You're so beautiful.
00:50:40You're sharper.
00:50:42You're smarter than I am.
00:50:44And you're just...
00:50:46Truly incredible.
00:50:48How long I waited to hear words like that.
00:50:51From a man like him.
00:50:54Chica.
00:50:56No, wait.
00:50:57We...
00:50:58We cannot...
00:50:59Do this right now.
00:51:00I need you...
00:51:01To pull yourself together.
00:51:03Because we have a really...
00:51:04Incredible opportunity here.
00:51:06And we cannot squander.
00:51:07Oh, come on.
00:51:08Nick!
00:51:09Oh my god.
00:51:10I just...
00:51:10You are such a disaster.
00:51:12I know.
00:51:12You're taking me to your room before you run us out of business.
00:51:15Well, let's get out of here I think then.
00:51:20I think I'm fine.
00:51:23Mmhmm.
00:51:24Get...
00:51:26Okay.
00:51:28Do you think you can get yourself into bed?
00:51:30Or do you need help with that too?
00:51:32Yeah.
00:51:33I think so.
00:51:35Mmhmm.
00:51:38Hey.
00:51:40What are you doing?
00:51:44Something I should have done on our wedding night.
00:51:55You're drunk.
00:51:56I may be drunk, but I know exactly what I'm doing.
00:52:01And I'm doing what I want...
00:52:04What I wanted since you came back.
00:52:07No.
00:52:08Please don't do this to me.
00:52:11No.
00:52:15Hmm.
00:52:18Hmm.
00:52:31You...
00:52:32You...
00:52:32You...
00:52:33You...
00:52:34You...
00:52:34You...
00:52:34You...
00:52:36What's up?
00:52:38What's up?
00:52:42Oh my God.
00:52:44Oh my God.
00:53:28tonight was amazing maybe i should give him another chance after all or was this a terrible mistake
00:53:45you
00:54:10I'm coming.
00:54:13Oh my God.
00:54:14What the fuck?
00:54:18I'm coming.
00:54:25Morning, Nikki.
00:54:41Claudia's hairpin.
00:54:43She was here with him last night.
00:54:46What time is it?
00:54:48What even happened yesterday? How did I get into this room?
00:54:53What the hell?
00:54:54He doesn't remember. He doesn't remember being with Claudia.
00:54:59What do you mean, Nikki, that you don't remember what happened last night?
00:55:05What we did.
00:55:12What do you mean?
00:55:15Oh, how could you forget a night like that? Honestly, I'm impressed.
00:55:20Wait, wait. Are you saying that something, something happened between us?
00:55:26Something.
00:55:28Everything happened. Oh, last night was so amazing. Unimaginable.
00:55:34You were unforgettable.
00:55:37I woke up early this morning, thought I'd surprise you with breakfast.
00:55:41I mean, after all that effort you put in last night, you earned it.
00:55:46Oh, my hairpin. We were so wild last night. Must have just fallen off.
00:55:53Look, look, I don't know what happened last night, but nobody can hear any of this.
00:55:59Why would we hide anything?
00:56:01I'm serious. Look, what do you want?
00:56:06I don't want anything other than to be with you.
00:56:10What are you talking about? I'm married to your sister.
00:56:13I know. Doesn't that make it exciting?
00:56:16No, look, just say whatever you want and just leave now.
00:56:23Fine. I want to be VP of the company. This way, I stay close to you.
00:56:29I hate this, but I'm trapped.
00:56:33Fine. This is how it will be. Now get out of my room.
00:57:01Ahem. Ahem. Ahem.
00:57:06Well, morning.
00:57:09Did you sleep well?
00:57:11Uh, yes, I went to bed early.
00:57:14How long did you end up staying at the convention?
00:57:17Why is he acting like this?
00:57:19Does he not remember what happened last night?
00:57:23Good morning!
00:57:26What are you doing here?
00:57:28Oh, Nick didn't tell you the good news?
00:57:31He promoted me senior VP.
00:57:33I'll be at all the executive meetings now.
00:57:36Is that true?
00:57:39Uh, yes, I thought that it would be best for the company if the family was united.
00:57:50That's my hairpin she's wearing.
00:57:52What is going on here?
00:57:58Something's wrong.
00:57:59Was Joy in his room after I left?
00:58:02Oh my God, did something happen between them?
00:58:07Excuse me, I need to make a really important phone call.
00:58:12What, uh, what have I done?
00:58:17I slept with her sister and ruined everything.
00:58:25What, Noah Hart is here?
00:58:33Oh, fuck, I forgot that meeting.
00:58:34Um, I need you to go get Claudia.
00:58:36Uh, Noah Hart is here.
00:58:37That's the biggest priority for this company right now.
00:58:39Great, just have them meet us in here.
00:58:42No, no, no, this is an investor meeting.
00:58:44This isn't a board meeting.
00:58:45It's just Claudia and I only, okay?
00:58:47We have an agreement.
00:58:48I am management now.
00:58:50This is non-negotiable.
00:58:53I need you to go get Claudia now.
00:59:00I can't believe that I let myself fall for him again.
00:59:03And he chooses Joy.
00:59:06I'm so fucking stupid.
00:59:16What do you want?
00:59:18There's an investor here, Noah Hart.
00:59:20He's in the lobby.
00:59:21He says he'll wait for you there.
00:59:23Noah Hart is here?
00:59:24Mm-hmm.
00:59:31You're really going to make it that easy for me?
00:59:34Idiot.
00:59:57Hello?
00:59:59Hello?
01:00:00Hello?
01:00:11Can anybody hear me?
01:00:12Can anybody hear me?
01:00:14Help!
01:00:16Hey, can anybody hear me?
01:00:18The guns have stuck in here, please.
01:00:26No, no, no.
01:00:27My husband, Hayler.
01:00:29I left it in the office.
01:00:35Oh, my God, help somebody.
01:00:37Please help me, please.
01:00:54Nick, I was under the impression that your beautiful and brilliant wife would be joining us today.
01:01:02Absolutely.
01:01:03Um, would you like any more coffee?
01:01:06It's important to me that I do this with the both of you.
01:01:08Mm.
01:01:09You understand?
01:01:10No, no, absolutely.
01:01:11I, uh, Claudia should be here any moment.
01:01:14I just...
01:01:16Oh, she's here right...
01:01:20Now I came here to meet with you and your partner.
01:01:23You promised me the chaos in your company was over with.
01:01:25Look, Mr. Hart, you have nothing to worry about.
01:01:28I'm Joy Richardson.
01:01:29I'm senior VP and a partner of this company just like my sister.
01:01:33Is that true?
01:01:38Um...
01:01:39It, it...
01:01:43Um...
01:01:43Hey, Claudia, where are you?
01:01:45Elevator, please help, help.
01:01:48Wait, what?
01:01:50Wait, where are you?
01:01:51Where are...
01:01:52Hold on, hold on.
01:01:52I'm coming.
01:01:53Don't worry.
01:01:54We're going to help you.
01:01:54Help us on the way.
01:01:55Stay calm.
01:01:56Hey, hey, is Claudia in there?
01:01:59Claudia!
01:02:00You in there?
01:02:02Claudia!
01:02:02Claudia, can you hear me?
01:02:04I'm going to get you out.
01:02:08Please help.
01:02:09I'm coming in.
01:02:10I'm in here.
01:02:11I have an attic.
01:02:12Please help me.
01:02:14Claudia!
01:02:16Claudia, it's okay.
01:02:17I'm going to get you out.
01:02:25No, no, no, no, no!
01:02:27Hey, hey, hey, Claudia.
01:02:29Come on, come on.
01:02:29I got you.
01:02:32Somebody, please.
01:02:33Call the ambulance.
01:02:33Call somebody.
01:02:35You're okay.
01:02:35You're okay, Claudia.
01:02:36Let's go.
01:02:37Claudia.
01:02:37Claudia, you're going to be fine.
01:02:42There you go.
01:02:43Just breathe.
01:02:45Are you feeling any better?
01:02:47Yeah.
01:02:49I'm just so tired.
01:02:51I'm going to rest my eyes for a few moments.
01:02:54Of course, yeah.
01:02:55Just take as long as you need.
01:02:59I almost lost her.
01:03:01I don't know what I would have done.
01:03:03My God, I had no idea she was becoming this important to me.
01:03:22Wait, I can't believe it.
01:03:25Were you the one I was with last night?
01:03:27Or am I just imagining it?
01:03:31No, no, no.
01:03:32Just close your eyes and rest for now.
01:03:41Hey, investor.
01:03:43Mr. Hart, is he still here?
01:03:44No, no, no.
01:03:45Claudia, it's okay.
01:03:46Don't worry about that.
01:03:47Just rest for now.
01:03:48Oh.
01:03:49No, we can't afford to lose this investment.
01:03:50No, it's fine.
01:03:51We'll worry about that later, okay?
01:03:55Later.
01:03:57Wait, Claudia, just...
01:03:59This woman.
01:04:00She may actually be crazy, but I'm crazy about her.
01:04:09Wait!
01:04:10Mr. Hart, wait.
01:04:11Please.
01:04:11Look, I'm so sorry that I missed our meeting.
01:04:14It was not on purpose.
01:04:16It was not...
01:04:16Stop right there.
01:04:19I've already made up my mind.
01:04:21Please, just give me a chance.
01:04:24I...
01:04:24I'm investing in you.
01:04:27I read over your metrics on the way.
01:04:30But then after seeing the way Nick fought for you,
01:04:34I can only say that I'm confident in my investment.
01:04:39I'll have my team send over a contract.
01:04:44Congratulations.
01:04:53Do you hear that?
01:04:54He's going to invest in us.
01:04:55We did it!
01:05:10Claudia, why?
01:05:12I mean, there's something definitely between us, right?
01:05:16I don't know what you're talking about.
01:05:19I'm just happy we succeeded.
01:05:22It was her I was with last night.
01:05:24I know it was her.
01:05:27Hey, hey, hey.
01:05:28I need to ask you something about the party last night.
01:05:31Look, I know that I was very drunk, yes.
01:05:34And I don't remember anything.
01:05:36But I do remember.
01:05:38I remember your scent.
01:05:40And your hair.
01:05:42Tell me I'm not crazy.
01:05:44We were together last night, right?
01:05:47He doesn't remember.
01:05:48Not only that, he was with Joy right after.
01:05:52No matter how much weight I lost,
01:05:55he still chose her.
01:06:08Nick was looking forward to the wedding
01:06:11because he was sure that he'd be marrying me.
01:06:16You must be imagining things.
01:06:20Maybe you're with someone else.
01:06:22So I really was with Joy.
01:06:24I really did betray my wife.
01:06:26And I'm really not worthy of her.
01:06:31Well, now we have our contract with Noah Hart,
01:06:34so I guess we can stop pretending, right?
01:06:38Yeah, if that's how you want to do things.
01:06:42Thanks.
01:07:02You going somewhere?
01:07:03This couple arrangement is over.
01:07:06Arrangement?
01:07:08This is a relationship.
01:07:11Claudia.
01:07:13Look, I know that I hurt you, okay?
01:07:17And I know that I failed you,
01:07:19but I'm here now.
01:07:21And I want to try.
01:07:22And I can change.
01:07:24Can you?
01:07:26Because I don't trust you.
01:07:29It's like you want me and then the next second that changes.
01:07:31I mean, Joy walks in the room
01:07:33and then I no longer even exist.
01:07:36Just tell me this.
01:07:38What happens if I gain weight?
01:07:42If I get pregnant?
01:07:44If I embarrass you?
01:07:46If literally anything changes, then what?
01:07:49What, you just don't even want me anymore?
01:07:51I mean, what kind of a relationship is it
01:07:53if everything is predicted off of me being perfect?
01:07:55I mean, what kind of a relationship is it
01:07:57if everything is predicted off of me being perfect?
01:08:00Hey, hey, look, I don't care about any of that.
01:08:03Look, you asked me if I would take you back
01:08:06and the answer is yes.
01:08:07Because I finally got to know you.
01:08:10And you are the only person that I want.
01:08:13Look, Claudia.
01:08:15I love you.
01:08:18I do.
01:08:22No.
01:08:24I'm sorry, but I don't believe you.
01:08:31Sign it.
01:08:32What is this?
01:08:39This is a divorce agreement.
01:08:56I can't believe I've gone back to Ben and Jerry's.
01:08:59Oh, a threesome?
01:09:02Spicy.
01:09:04Seriously, you're allowed some comfort without guilt.
01:09:08I'm just so angry at myself.
01:09:10You know, I came back here to make everyone regret
01:09:13how they treated me,
01:09:14and I promised myself
01:09:15that I wasn't going to let anyone make me feel
01:09:17like I was unworthy ever again.
01:09:20Know what I think?
01:09:22You made all these changes,
01:09:24but you forgot the big one.
01:09:27Right here.
01:09:28What do you mean?
01:09:31You lost weight.
01:09:32You look incredible.
01:09:34You're strong.
01:09:34You're healthy.
01:09:35But you still don't love yourself enough.
01:09:38No, that's not true.
01:09:39I do.
01:09:40I love myself.
01:09:41No, Nick told you again and again and again
01:09:44how he wanted you.
01:09:47If you loved yourself fully,
01:09:49you would have believed him.
01:09:52He cheated on me with joy.
01:09:54No, you don't really know that.
01:09:56But you do really know
01:09:58that joy is a liar
01:09:59and a manipulative psycho bitch.
01:10:02So before you throw him away
01:10:04because you think he chose her,
01:10:07maybe at least try to check what actually happened?
01:10:18Hi, um, I'm calling.
01:10:21This is Claudia Richardson.
01:10:23I was the sponsor of the event two nights ago.
01:10:27Yes, something was stolen from my room.
01:10:29It was room, um, 843.
01:10:33Mm-hmm.
01:10:36Yes, I would love to see the security footage.
01:10:50Okay, okay.
01:10:53Fast forward.
01:10:58Tia, I told you.
01:11:00You slept with her.
01:11:02Patience.
01:11:07Well, that's the fastest affair in history.
01:11:13I mean, she was only there for, like, five minutes.
01:11:16I mean, either he did cheat
01:11:18and he finishes way too fast,
01:11:19which in that case, girl, good riddance.
01:11:21Or he was never with her and she lied.
01:11:24Bitch lied.
01:11:25I hate it.
01:11:37Uh, Claudia?
01:11:41Look, I haven't signed a divorce agreement yet,
01:11:44but I will.
01:11:46Don't worry about that.
01:11:47But is that why you came all the way out here?
01:11:56Claudia, what are you doing?
01:11:59You tried so many times to tell me how you felt.
01:12:02That you wanted me.
01:12:04That I couldn't believe you.
01:12:05I couldn't believe that you would love someone like me.
01:12:09How could anyone not love someone like you?
01:12:12Look, Claudia, I...
01:12:14I love you.
01:12:16And I am so mad at myself
01:12:18for ruining everything between us.
01:12:21You didn't ruin anything.
01:12:24I did.
01:12:26I...
01:12:29I'm still an insecure woman.
01:12:32And I didn't let you get close.
01:12:37Look, Claudia, I, um...
01:12:41I cheated on you.
01:12:45With joy.
01:12:49So, um...
01:12:54No, you didn't.
01:12:57You were with me that night.
01:13:01And it was perfect.
01:13:04Wait, so...
01:13:05So I wasn't with joy.
01:13:08So you and I?
01:13:14I thought I destroyed everything.
01:13:17So what are you...
01:13:18What are you saying, Claudia?
01:13:21I'm saying that I'm willing to give you a chance.
01:13:25But I need time.
01:13:27I look different now,
01:13:29but I'm still me.
01:13:31And three months ago,
01:13:33I could barely leave the house.
01:13:35I was so insecure in my own skin.
01:13:37And I'm finally learning how to love myself.
01:13:42Look, you take all the time that you need.
01:13:46And I'm gonna be here.
01:13:48Always.
01:13:50Just don't hurt me again.
01:13:53Can I kiss you?
01:14:09If we shift the allocation,
01:14:11then we can accelerate the growth
01:14:13without any increased risk.
01:14:15Right.
01:14:17You know,
01:14:18every time you talk strategy,
01:14:19it drives me wild.
01:14:21Wait, what do you mean?
01:14:22Does it bother you?
01:14:24Bother me?
01:14:25No, no, no.
01:14:27It actually makes me feel
01:14:29kind of crazy.
01:14:34Really?
01:14:35Yeah, it's very strong.
01:14:37Bold.
01:14:40Powering.
01:14:41It's just hard to resist.
01:14:51I think people are gonna walk in here
01:14:53in a second.
01:14:54And I don't even care.
01:15:04What the hell?
01:15:09What the hell?
01:15:14Didn't you get divorced?
01:15:16Well, that's what you wanted
01:15:17all along, isn't it, Troy?
01:15:20To drive a wedge between us?
01:15:22To destroy my confidence?
01:15:24Then why?
01:15:25You are so
01:15:27beautiful
01:15:28and
01:15:29determined.
01:15:30I mean, you could have
01:15:30any job,
01:15:32any man that you wanted.
01:15:32So why?
01:15:33Why do you need to take mine?
01:15:35Because
01:15:36it's yours,
01:15:38Claudia.
01:15:39Dad always preferred you.
01:15:41He always loved you more.
01:15:42Everything was always
01:15:43about you.
01:15:45I mean,
01:15:45you took up all the space
01:15:46in the house.
01:15:47And yes,
01:15:48that was a fat joke too.
01:15:50Oh,
01:15:50and it was really funny.
01:15:52Hmm.
01:15:53You know what's funnier though?
01:15:55I was always so jealous of you.
01:15:57And then I stopped comparing
01:15:59myself to you
01:15:59and I realized that
01:16:02I literally don't have
01:16:04anything to envy.
01:16:07Oh,
01:16:08you think you're better than me.
01:16:10Above me.
01:16:11Well,
01:16:12let's stop pretending.
01:16:13Because your
01:16:13wonderful man here
01:16:15cheated on you
01:16:16with
01:16:17me.
01:16:18Enough.
01:16:20Enough of your lies,
01:16:21okay?
01:16:21We know that you made up
01:16:22everything about that night.
01:16:24You sabotaged the elevator.
01:16:25You put her at harm's way.
01:16:27You could have hurt her.
01:16:28And that's unforgivable.
01:16:29Well,
01:16:29you have
01:16:30no evidence.
01:16:31We're not going to the cops.
01:16:33You're out.
01:16:34You're fired.
01:16:36You can't
01:16:36fire me.
01:16:38This is my
01:16:39father's company.
01:16:40And we
01:16:41are the CEOs.
01:16:43So,
01:16:43you're fired.
01:16:52You okay?
01:16:54Yeah.
01:17:01I can't believe
01:17:02they fired me.
01:17:03Oh,
01:17:04they're going to pay
01:17:04for this.
01:17:11Documents
01:17:12you requested,
01:17:13Mom?
01:17:21Soon,
01:17:22everything will be mine.
01:17:24Claudia,
01:17:24Nick,
01:17:25both of you
01:17:26will pay.
01:17:52well,
01:17:53well,
01:17:53well,
01:17:53you just shut down
01:17:54this entire room.
01:17:56Everything that you see here,
01:17:57the signing,
01:17:58this evening,
01:18:00the Noah Hart investment
01:18:01is all because of you.
01:18:02Your father would be proud,
01:18:04sweetie.
01:18:06That is very nice to hear.
01:18:09You contributed to
01:18:10a little.
01:18:13Have you seen my father?
01:18:14He needs to be here
01:18:15before the investor arrives.
01:18:17Uh,
01:18:17no,
01:18:17I haven't seen him yet.
01:18:19Huh.
01:18:20That's weird.
01:18:21It's not like him
01:18:21to be late
01:18:22for things like this.
01:18:23I hope that thing
01:18:24looked bad
01:18:25happened.
01:18:35Hello,
01:18:36Daddy.
01:18:37Joy,
01:18:38what are you doing here?
01:18:40I just thought
01:18:41we'd have a drink
01:18:42before the event tonight.
01:18:43Well,
01:18:44I'm pleasantly surprised,
01:18:45but, uh,
01:18:46you're still coming
01:18:47despite what happened
01:18:48with Claudia and Nick?
01:18:49Oh, Daddy,
01:18:50the company is what matters.
01:18:52And they're my family.
01:18:54I only want
01:18:54what's best for them.
01:18:56That's just great, Joy.
01:18:57I'm really proud of you.
01:18:59But, uh,
01:19:00you know how I hate being late?
01:19:01We have to go soon.
01:19:02Come on, Dad.
01:19:03Just one moment
01:19:04before Claudia
01:19:05soaks up all the attention.
01:19:08I know I'm not
01:19:09your favorite daughter,
01:19:10but I do work hard.
01:19:13Sweetheart,
01:19:14no.
01:19:15You know I love you,
01:19:16sweetheart.
01:19:17You know that.
01:19:19All right,
01:19:20uh,
01:19:20I guess one quick
01:19:21whiskey won't hurt,
01:19:22and then we go.
01:19:24Mm-hmm.
01:19:26Let's see.
01:19:54To father-daughter time.
01:19:58To father-daughter time.
01:20:03Ow.
01:20:09I don't, I don't, uh,
01:20:13feel well.
01:20:14It's, uh...
01:20:17Dad, what is it?
01:20:19Uh, everything is, uh,
01:20:21spinning,
01:20:21and I can't,
01:20:23I can't see clearly.
01:20:26It's probably just a dizzy spell.
01:20:28Wait here,
01:20:29and rest for a second.
01:20:30Soon, Claudia,
01:20:31you'll finally
01:20:32be out of my way.
01:20:39Listen, Dad,
01:20:40while you're resting,
01:20:41we might as well be fishing
01:20:42and do some paperwork.
01:20:43Sign here.
01:20:44Paperwork?
01:20:45What?
01:20:46Yeah,
01:20:47Claudia asked for
01:20:48some formality
01:20:49thing for tonight.
01:20:50Claudia asked for,
01:20:52well,
01:20:52if Claudia
01:20:54said to do it,
01:20:55then it's fine,
01:20:55I guess.
01:20:56No.
01:20:58Fine.
01:20:59Should I?
01:21:01Good.
01:21:09Okay,
01:21:09well,
01:21:10Noah Hart is here,
01:21:11and he hates people
01:21:12being late,
01:21:12so where is my father?
01:21:14No, no, no.
01:21:15Don't worry about it.
01:21:16Just relax.
01:21:16He'll be here any moment.
01:21:18No, I just,
01:21:19I have this bad feeling
01:21:20like something happened.
01:21:22Okay,
01:21:22one second.
01:21:24Hey,
01:21:25Gabby,
01:21:26can you please go
01:21:26to Jack Bridgerton's house,
01:21:27make sure he's okay,
01:21:28check up on him,
01:21:29get here immediately.
01:21:36That's it,
01:21:37Claudia.
01:21:38Now,
01:21:39all of Dad's
01:21:39inheritance is mine.
01:21:41I'm the CEO now.
01:21:43I need help.
01:21:44Help.
01:21:45I don't feel well.
01:21:48You should have
01:21:48thought about that
01:21:49before choosing Claudia
01:21:50over me our whole lives.
01:21:53And now?
01:21:55You'll have to die
01:21:56alone.
01:22:09What a nice celebration,
01:22:11huh?
01:22:12What?
01:22:13A little premature,
01:22:14wouldn't you say?
01:22:15We still haven't signed.
01:22:18Speaking of which,
01:22:19shall we?
01:22:20Mr. Hart,
01:22:21I, um,
01:22:23I'm so sorry.
01:22:24I know that you
01:22:25hate to delay things
01:22:28and trust me,
01:22:28we do too.
01:22:29My father
01:22:31needs to be here.
01:22:33He's waited
01:22:33for this moment
01:22:35his whole life
01:22:35and
01:22:36he wouldn't miss it
01:22:37for the world.
01:22:41Well,
01:22:42it looks like he is.
01:22:47Hello?
01:22:49Mr. Richardson?
01:22:50Are you home?
01:22:58I don't mean
01:22:59to be disrespectful
01:23:00to your father,
01:23:01but I have a full schedule ahead.
01:23:03Are we going to sign
01:23:04or what?
01:23:06Um,
01:23:08I think that your father
01:23:09would want us
01:23:10to go through with this
01:23:10and not lose this opportunity.
01:23:13You're right.
01:23:14And we can begin.
01:23:17Perfect.
01:23:18You two are about
01:23:19to sign a contract
01:23:19that's going to
01:23:20change your lives.
01:23:32Stop!
01:23:36Stop!
01:23:38Everybody stop.
01:23:40Claudia has no authority
01:23:41to sign.
01:23:42Your signature there
01:23:44means nothing.
01:23:45Dad signed
01:23:46a new agreement today.
01:23:47Claudia is out.
01:23:49I'm the new CEO.
01:23:51My company.
01:23:53I'm the one who signs.
01:23:55Nick,
01:23:55what's going on?
01:23:57There's nothing
01:23:58to worry about,
01:23:59I assure you.
01:24:00Joy has no authority here.
01:24:02She was fired
01:24:02and now she is
01:24:03desperate for relevance.
01:24:05No.
01:24:06Then explain this.
01:24:09Forging your father's
01:24:11signature now?
01:24:12Pretty desperate
01:24:12even for you.
01:24:14No, Nick,
01:24:15this is,
01:24:15this is real.
01:24:17This is dad's signature.
01:24:18Is it?
01:24:24Joy Richardson,
01:24:25CEO.
01:24:27Shall we continue?
01:24:28No, no, no.
01:24:29This doesn't make
01:24:29any sense, okay?
01:24:30Jack never trusted
01:24:31you with anything.
01:24:32Oh, on the contrary.
01:24:34My dad trusted me
01:24:35with his life.
01:24:37He told me I
01:24:39was the beloved daughter,
01:24:40not the one who
01:24:41disappeared for three months
01:24:42without telling him.
01:24:43So, smile, Nicky.
01:24:46You're finally
01:24:47free of Claudia.
01:24:48You can have me now.
01:24:50We can become
01:24:52the power couple
01:24:53we were always
01:24:53meant to be.
01:24:54Where is dad?
01:24:57Did you do something to him?
01:25:00Relax, dad is fine.
01:25:02He just finally woke up.
01:25:04And you need to wake up too.
01:25:05I know you didn't
01:25:07want to marry Claudia.
01:25:08You wanted to marry me.
01:25:11So now you can.
01:25:13Let's become
01:25:13the most gorgeous
01:25:15and strongest couple
01:25:16in the industry.
01:25:23sign with me.
01:25:27Come on, Nicky.
01:25:28What are you waiting for?
01:25:30If you don't choose me,
01:25:31then my first act
01:25:32as CEO
01:25:33will be canceling
01:25:34this merger.
01:25:36No, no,
01:25:36you can't do that.
01:25:37Noah has signed
01:25:38with us already.
01:25:39Ooh, but
01:25:40he already signed.
01:25:42See?
01:25:42Now all it takes
01:25:43is my signature.
01:25:45Come on,
01:25:47Nicky.
01:25:49If you don't sign,
01:25:50then she's going
01:25:50to destroy everything.
01:25:52My wife's work.
01:25:53No, no,
01:25:53you are my wife.
01:25:55The company matters,
01:25:56but you matter more.
01:25:57And I'm not going
01:25:57to lose you again.
01:25:58No matter what.
01:26:02Oh my God.
01:26:03Both of you
01:26:03are so stupid.
01:26:05But hey,
01:26:08better look next time,
01:26:09liver boy.
01:26:13Stop this immediately.
01:26:17Everything she said
01:26:19is a lie.
01:26:21She drugged me
01:26:22and forced me
01:26:24to sign
01:26:24this.
01:26:34Your jealousy
01:26:35has turned you
01:26:37into a monster.
01:26:39I'm ashamed of you.
01:26:41You're no longer
01:26:42my daughter.
01:26:44I can't forgive you
01:26:45for doing this.
01:26:46You're no longer
01:26:46my sister.
01:26:48Oh,
01:26:48boo-fucking-hoo.
01:26:49Since you're no longer
01:26:50family and you're
01:26:51not an employee,
01:26:55you're no longer here.
01:26:56Security!
01:27:01Wait, no,
01:27:02Claudia,
01:27:02what is this?
01:27:03You know,
01:27:04my instincts told me
01:27:04something bad
01:27:05happened to Dad.
01:27:06And I think that maybe
01:27:07you had something
01:27:08to do with it.
01:27:09And I believe
01:27:10her instincts,
01:27:10so that's why
01:27:11I called security
01:27:12just in case.
01:27:13You can't,
01:27:14you can't do this!
01:27:15We can.
01:27:15For attempted murder.
01:27:16Oh,
01:27:17you fat bitch!
01:27:18Don't regret this!
01:27:19I'm not finished
01:27:20with you!
01:27:23Oh,
01:27:25fat bitch.
01:27:26It is a long story.
01:27:28Yes.
01:27:30Right.
01:27:32Wow.
01:27:33If the family drama's over,
01:27:35shall we,
01:27:36dare I say,
01:27:37sign?
01:27:37Yes.
01:27:38Yes.
01:27:40Hmm.
01:27:49I do have one more thing
01:27:51to say.
01:27:52Claudia,
01:27:53I know that I ruined
01:27:55our wedding day,
01:27:57but you deserve nothing
01:27:59more than your dream wedding.
01:28:01So?
01:28:07Will you marry me?
01:28:13Yes.
01:28:14Oh my God,
01:28:15yes,
