00:00:01All I knew was that I was marrying my childhood crush.
00:00:08The little boy I steal cookies and make trouble with.
00:00:12Yet, I had no idea how much it would break my heart.
00:00:26If you can do this, Ava, you can do this.
00:00:33You're nervous.
00:00:35Why isn't she walking in?
00:00:36She's probably nervous too.
00:00:38You haven't seen each other since you were kids.
00:00:40I'm not worried.
00:00:42I've always liked her.
00:00:55So she hasn't lost the baby date?
00:00:56Yeah, honestly, I can't believe he even agreed to this.
00:00:59Her family is so rich and they couldn't afford to buy a dress that actually fits.
00:01:04I guess there isn't enough money in the world to buy the amount of fabric she'd need.
00:01:10People are whispering.
00:01:12This wedding brings together two of the area's richest families.
00:01:15This is a great day.
00:01:18I'm proud of you.
00:01:22I'm proud of you.
00:01:22Enough money to buy taste either.
00:01:24Such a shame.
00:01:28I'd be embarrassed to see that on the street.
00:01:30Bring us out a dress lining the trash can outside.
00:01:54Hi, Alfie.
00:01:59You have lipstick on your teeth.
00:02:01Oh.
00:02:09What was Alfie thinking?
00:02:11I would be so embarrassed to be seen with her on the street, let alone the altar.
00:02:15I can't believe he's going to wake up to her looking like that every day.
00:02:19Go ahead. Let's get this over.
00:02:21Ladies and gentlemen.
00:02:30Did you see what your grandfather gave to me?
00:02:32He asked me to wear it at your family's annual garden party.
00:02:36We're hosting that this year, right?
00:02:39Alfie?
00:02:44Alfie, I know I don't really fit in.
00:02:47You should probably get ready for bed.
00:02:48Oh.
00:02:49Oh.
00:02:51Right.
00:02:53I need to use the restroom.
00:02:59Oh, my God.
00:03:07Oh, my God.
00:03:11Oh, my God.
00:03:14Oh, my God.
00:03:16It's almost like that.
00:03:16It's not that many people were living, too.
00:03:17Oh, my God.
00:03:18Oh, my God.
00:03:22It's almost like that.
00:03:23You are, in the main house.
00:03:23Oh, my God.
00:03:41I've seen she hasn't lost the beta rate.
00:03:43Honestly, I can't believe he even agreed to this.
00:03:46What was Alfie thinking?
00:03:48I would be so embarrassed to be seen with her on the street.
00:03:51Let alone the elf.
00:03:53What the hell are you doing?
00:03:55I just, I don't know.
00:03:56You haven't said much to me, and I wanted to feel close.
00:04:03Yeah, but just get into bed.
00:04:14You think I'm ugly, don't you?
00:04:17You want some appetite?
00:04:19No, you look like what I think.
00:04:23It just matters that you and I be up, keep these families a good name.
00:04:27Don't forget, that's all this marriage is about.
00:04:42That was some party last night.
00:04:44Did you drink enough last night?
00:04:45You're trying to black out what you did.
00:04:47And if I drank, forget all the things this family forced me to do, I'd be dead.
00:04:58There's no forgetting that, I'm afraid.
00:05:00Yeah, we have guests, Ava.
00:05:02Oh, I didn't know.
00:05:03Oh, hi, Sloan.
00:05:06You look lovely this morning.
00:05:08I know.
00:05:09Tell me, Ava, were you trying to seduce your husband last night?
00:05:13Oh, no.
00:05:14I just like to be comfy in my house.
00:05:16Well, there's a time and a place you should go get changed.
00:05:28Oh, Alfie, don't look.
00:05:35Oh, Alfie, don't look.
00:05:38I, I, I, oops.
00:05:47Some breakfast, man?
00:05:49Hello.
00:05:49Um, no, no.
00:05:52I'd actually like to do it myself, if that's okay.
00:05:54Oh, sure.
00:05:55Whatever you want to do.
00:06:00What's the news about our venture, the cooking show?
00:06:04Ah, yeah, yeah.
00:06:05The director wants to bring in Victoria Vaughn for a screen test.
00:06:09Victoria who?
00:06:10Victoria Vaughn, the food critic.
00:06:13She's like a huge deal.
00:06:15But I was supposed to be host.
00:06:20Alfie?
00:06:21I'm sure if Alfie invests in a larger share, you can be whatever he wants you to be.
00:06:27Anything?
00:06:36Anything?
00:06:38Excuse us.
00:06:43I thought you were getting changed.
00:06:45I will.
00:06:46I just wanted breakfast.
00:06:56Miss Christy.
00:06:59Have you made this?
00:07:02Ava, this is incredible.
00:07:04Food is one of my passions.
00:07:08It's an egg omelette, Jude.
00:07:10Relax.
00:07:12And what is it that you get paid for exactly?
00:07:15That's enough.
00:07:16I wanted to make the eggs.
00:07:18To what?
00:07:19Impress your husband?
00:07:22I guess I don't blame you.
00:07:24It's not every day a woman like you gets to marry a catch like him.
00:07:34It's not every day a woman like you gets to marry a catch like him.
00:07:41Actually, it's because I run this house now and do whatever I want, if you ever get the chance.
00:07:49I'm sure you don't understand.
00:07:53Excuse us.
00:07:57You didn't have to stand up for me back there, but thank you.
00:08:02Oh, please.
00:08:02She does not get to talk to you like that.
00:08:07Now, let's get me changed.
00:08:09All the money in the world and not an ounce of glamour.
00:08:13Miss Christy.
00:08:14I'm sorry.
00:08:15We can make this work.
00:08:23Wow.
00:08:26Oh, honey.
00:08:38Alfie can see right through your cheap dresses and slap together hairdo.
00:08:43You may think you know him, but I've known him his entire life.
00:08:48I know what he likes.
00:08:50And you aren't it.
00:08:53Just give me back the necklace.
00:08:55Don't tell me you're actually trying to get him to love you.
00:08:58To even think you're remotely pretty.
00:09:03You want your necklace?
00:09:11Hey!
00:09:12Look at the pig playing in the dirt.
00:09:17Oh, my arm!
00:09:19Something's wrong!
00:09:20What happened?
00:09:21Her necklace, it fell.
00:09:23Sometimes that happens on a thicker neck.
00:09:25And I tried to help, but then she shoved me like a barbarian.
00:09:28It's bruised!
00:09:31I think it's bruised!
00:09:33She's fine.
00:09:34I'm fine, too, if you're wondering.
00:09:36I was just trying to help.
00:09:37I thought we could be friends, Ava.
00:09:41I'll just go now.
00:09:43I'll walk you out, Sloan.
00:09:48Ow.
00:09:53What happened back there?
00:09:55Sloan's my friend.
00:09:56Your friend took my necklace.
00:09:58And that's why you pushed her?
00:09:59How do you think I ended up on the ground, Alky?
00:10:02Ron, you expect me to believe that Sloan lied and pushed you?
00:10:05Listen to yourself, Ava.
00:10:07That necklace was a gift from your grandfather.
00:10:10Let her keep it!
00:10:12I don't understand how you can let yourself be seen like that.
00:10:15What exactly?
00:10:20Who walks around in a house with a robe?
00:10:23In front of guests?
00:10:24What were you thinking?
00:10:25I'm just an embarrassment to you, aren't I?
00:10:28The ugly girl that you're forced to marry.
00:10:30Look, if you're going to walk around the house looking like a fool, that's fine.
00:10:33But I can't have you acting like one in front of guests.
00:10:36Okay?
00:10:36We have an image to uphold.
00:10:40I'm leaving for a month on business.
00:10:43You've changed.
00:10:45I don't know you anymore.
00:10:49The Alfie that was my friend when I never cared about such things.
00:10:53I've grown up, Ava.
00:10:54Maybe if you had to, you'd see that everybody cares how they're singing.
00:11:04Oh, darling, you can't take it personally.
00:11:08He was conditioned to speak like that.
00:11:10Spending so much time in this elite circle.
00:11:12The only way he knows to be is to be tame and proper.
00:11:17And the only right way for me to be is thin and glamorous.
00:11:21That's not true.
00:11:23He just needs to open his eyes and see how wonderful you are as your true self.
00:11:29All he sees are my flaws.
00:11:32He's just like everyone else in his elite circle.
00:11:36He's so different from the boy I knew.
00:11:40That boy's still in there somewhere.
00:11:42If only we could get him to see past these so-called flaws.
00:11:50If I took these so-called flaws away,
00:11:53he would have to finally see me.
00:11:55And see that he was so wrong about me.
00:11:59I'm not a fool.
00:12:00I'm just free.
00:12:03If you can't beat him,
00:12:04join him.
00:12:06And then beat him.
00:12:08Miss Christy,
00:12:09I'm going to need a tape measure and my credit card.
00:12:17What's wrong with Clay?
00:12:19Take it.
00:12:28Take it out.
00:12:29He's got even smaller.
00:12:36This boy is a dream.
00:12:38I know why you did all this.
00:12:39But don't forget,
00:12:40you were perfect before.
00:12:42Thanks.
00:12:44We'll see if it was all worth it.
00:12:52Alfie.
00:12:53My boy,
00:12:54you've thrown a great party this year.
00:12:56I just landed an hour ago.
00:12:58This looks like the works of Miss Christy.
00:13:00And the hook.
00:13:02Hello!
00:13:03What a wonderful party!
00:13:11Where is your beautiful wife?
00:13:14I wish I knew.
00:13:14I think we need to talk.
00:13:16I said things to her.
00:13:18I think I owe her an apology.
00:13:20You'll learn in time.
00:13:21A good marriage consists
00:13:23of a lot of apologies.
00:13:26Alfie,
00:13:27don't bore him.
00:13:28Do you like my dress?
00:13:31What a wonderful place.
00:14:00Is that the new Prada gown?
00:14:02Ow, it was just on the runway last week.
00:14:04Ava Stani, as always.
00:14:07This poor old man's memory.
00:14:09Your memory is failing you, grandfather?
00:14:12This can't be Ava.
00:14:16I'll get us some drinks.
00:14:23This is a private event.
00:14:25You need to leave.
00:14:37You're not fooling anyone with this knock-off designer dress.
00:14:41I can see from here the material is so cheap.
00:14:44Is it?
00:14:46That's not what the designer told me.
00:14:48Right, because you're close personal friends with her?
00:14:51Prada's lead designer?
00:14:53She was certainly happy to make me this dress.
00:14:56It's a one-of-a-kind, made to match my necklace.
00:15:01Don't forget the cookies you made, Miss Ava.
00:15:06Bye.
00:15:09I made these just for you.
00:15:10Oh, Ava, thank you.
00:15:25Hey, gorgeous.
00:15:26May I have this dance?
00:15:27My gosh, you came!
00:15:34Alfie?
00:15:35Won't you dance with me?
00:15:40And I've done you and Ava, I've done a lot of my job.
00:15:44Excuse me, you fell off the radar for a month and you show up looking like this universe?
00:15:47Who are you?
00:15:48And what have you done with Ava?
00:15:50It is still me and your best friend.
00:15:53I just wanted to prove a point.
00:15:57You never said how I looked.
00:15:59His dress is new.
00:16:02Yeah, he's fine.
00:16:03Who is that man?
00:16:05He does know about me, right?
00:16:07Who knows?
00:16:08He ever asked about my plans.
00:16:10Well, I think you succeeded in proving your point.
00:16:11Alfie hasn't been able to look away from you.
00:16:19God, I knew it.
00:16:21He is just as shallow as the rest of us.
00:16:23I wanted to thank you for investing more into the cooking show.
00:16:26I would stand a chance against Victoria Vaughn.
00:16:29She's way too accomplished for them to choose me over her.
00:16:33Of course.
00:16:34Of course.
00:16:35There's nothing.
00:16:38You take such good care of me.
00:16:45Ava, just, um, I...
00:16:47Would you like to dance with your wife?
00:16:48Yes.
00:16:56Ava?
00:16:57About how we left things...
00:16:59You know this is the most attention that you've given me since we got married?
00:17:03You wouldn't even dance with me on our wedding day.
00:17:06I get it.
00:17:06I was harsh before.
00:17:08You're right.
00:17:09I changed myself.
00:17:10Suddenly, you're okay being seen with me.
00:17:13Nobody has insulted me once tonight.
00:17:15You look wonderful.
00:17:17You were also right in proving to me that you were just as shallow as everyone else.
00:17:22No, I'm not.
00:17:24Ava, I just...
00:17:28People...
00:17:28Ava, you have always been beautiful.
00:17:32If I was always beautiful, then why did you want me to change?
00:17:35I didn't ask you to change like this.
00:17:38Right.
00:17:39Because you love my old body and my old robe so much.
00:17:43Hey, hey.
00:17:44Ava.
00:17:45Do you have any idea how much I thought about you in that robe while I was away?
00:17:54I need these just for you.
00:18:15Grandpa!
00:18:16Wait!
00:18:17Help!
00:18:18Somebody!
00:18:19Call 911!
00:18:19What happened?
00:18:21He ate a cookie and started having some sort of reaction.
00:18:24They were cookies from Ava.
00:18:27You put cinnamon in them.
00:18:29Ava, is this true?
00:18:31You've known this for years.
00:18:33I didn't put any cinnamon in them.
00:18:34You have to believe me.
00:18:35I didn't do it.
00:18:36Ava, enough with the flaming.
00:18:38He could die.
00:18:41No, no, no, no.
00:18:43Ava.
00:18:44Ava.
00:18:45Ava.
00:18:46Ava.
00:18:46Ava.
00:18:52We should dump these.
00:18:54They've caused enough harm.
00:19:00Are you crazy?
00:19:02Leave the cookies, all right?
00:19:03People are watching and you'll ruin your dress.
00:19:05I don't care about my dress, Alfie.
00:19:07I care that you know that I would never harm the one person that actually cares about me here.
00:19:13Sloan did this.
00:19:14Did what?
00:19:16It would purposely hurt my grandfather to, what, frame you?
00:19:21Yes, because she hates me.
00:19:23Even more so now that I'm beautiful and I have the best designer clothes and the husband that she wants.
00:19:28She tries to embarrass me every chance that she gets and obviously it is working.
00:19:33Listen to yourself.
00:19:34No, you listen.
00:19:35There is a reason why I'd away from these fake people for so long.
00:19:39I assumed you'd be different, but you're not.
00:19:42This is ridiculous.
00:19:44My grandfather is in the hospital right now.
00:19:46I don't have time to be arguing with you.
00:19:48You should never marry me.
00:19:52I think it wasn't my choice.
00:20:08I think it wasn't my choice.

00:26:35this job she can if she has a better screen test you think you could do better than me on
00:26:42camera
00:26:44this will be good okay fine fine i guess it's only fair that i have some competition
00:26:53alfie you should be the judge what he is our largest investor after all you may as well just make

00:30:03am
00:30:04if i'm going to be part of the show then i think
00:30:08what's the what's the matter
00:30:09someone must have messed with my vinegar
00:30:13that's why my food tasted so bad
00:30:15your dish tasted bad because you're a bad chef
00:30:19you use straight vinegar not balsamic
00:30:22my dish tasted good because i didn't use the balsamic that you tampered with
00:30:27what are you talking about ava
00:30:32alfie you don't think i would actually harm her do you
00:30:44alfie you don't think i would actually harm her do you

00:45:08Yeah, well, there's nobody to tell me that I can't eat with the help.
00:45:12If I get teary, it's because of the onion.
00:45:16Yeah.
00:45:19And that is onion soup.
00:45:23Ava's way.
00:45:26And cut.

00:45:29Great work, everyone.
00:45:30What a fun episode.
00:45:33The network called at lunch and they are thrilled with the show.
00:45:38I'm so happy to hear we're getting good reviews.
00:45:42We know if I got more screen time.
00:45:44I'd rather not fix something that isn't broken.
00:45:46Ava, my beautiful star.
00:45:48Yes.
00:45:48Keep up the good work, okay?
00:45:50Come on.

00:46:03It's fine.
00:46:04It's fine.
00:46:12It's fine.
00:46:12So, what do you think, Mr. Harrison?
00:46:18Could you, um, repeat that?
00:46:23We were discussing the recent errors with our clients.
00:46:27And we're going to apologize and make things right before things get worse.
00:46:30If we move quickly, we can salvage the relationship.
00:46:33What do you think?
00:46:35Better now than later.
00:46:39Excuse me, gentlemen.
00:46:40I, um, have to handle something important.
00:46:47I need to fix this before it's too late.
00:46:56Alfie.
00:47:03Ava.
00:47:04I miss having you at home.
00:47:06It, it, it feels so empty.
00:47:08And Miss Christie, she misses you too.

00:49:52to make a delicious lamb dish hey that's my job if you don't mind just want to take a second
00:50:00sloan you're fired i made the mistake of putting trust in you for your mom when you were the least
00:50:07bit deserving of it you are nothing like her and it's clear that i put trust in a wrong woman
00:50:14alfie please just leave don't talk to anybody in my circle again you're cut
00:50:24can we get started again mr harrison yes he's done with the theatrics
00:50:41the beauty of this dish is that it's delicious and forgiving you treat the lamb well you season
00:50:48everything right it has the potential to become something great you just have to give it time
00:50:55and be patient some people aren't cut out for these types of dishes they expect perfection
00:51:03but you never know if it's perfect until you cut in
00:51:16everyone i have an announcement thank you to you and all of your hard work for bringing my wife's
00:51:22talents across the country i am personally giving you all a bonus

00:52:11i miss her
00:52:14you finally saw the truth and i'm sure part of her appreciates what you did today
00:52:21but the plain fact
00:52:36is that it may have been too late and a woman like ava doesn't actually need a man in her

00:58:16That was a good one.
00:58:18I'm just...
00:58:19I'm tired.
00:58:22You know, every time we're in this kitchen at night,
00:58:26it feels like I'm back with the little boy I had a crush on.
00:58:30And then out there in the world, you're totally different.
00:58:34I like the version here in the kitchen.
00:58:38I can actually get a read on him.

00:58:55I need to know where you bought the cookies.
00:58:57I've told you a million times.
00:58:58I'm not telling you...
00:59:00I need to know.
00:59:02Those cookies, they make me happy.
00:59:03And what's more is they make Ava happy.
00:59:05I just want her to enjoy that taste.
00:59:08Alfie, we have to go to the wrap party.
00:59:11Even if I told you, there wouldn't be enough time.
00:59:15I'll make time.
00:59:21If I give you this, you have to promise you're going to guard it with your wife.
00:59:25Of course.
00:59:31What is this?
00:59:33That right there is a piece of paper that my mother gave to me around the time you were born.
00:59:38This is her recipe.
00:59:39You made all those cookies.
00:59:42Yes and yes.
00:59:44And I didn't want you to know or else you bug me all the time because...
00:59:49It was so good.
00:59:50You've got some work to do.
00:59:52No.
00:59:53You can't.
00:59:54You need to make me a batch for Ava.
00:59:57I don't think so, darling.
00:59:59Why don't you go get familiar with the kitchen?
01:00:02No.
01:00:02I don't think so, man.
01:00:03I don't think so, man.
01:00:04I don't think so, man.
01:00:04I don't think so, man.
01:00:04I don't think so, man.
01:00:04I don't think so, man.
01:00:08I don't think so, man.
01:00:08I don't think so, man.
01:00:16I don't think so, man.
01:00:58Oh, crap.
01:01:00Of course.
01:01:16Thank you all for such a fun season.
01:01:19I can't wait to do it all again.
01:01:22You're here.
01:01:23Wee!
01:01:25Bravo!
01:01:29Alfie, I didn't think you were coming.
01:01:31If I am the largest investor, why wouldn't I?
01:01:42Ava, do you love this man?
01:01:46I love this man very much.
01:01:48Are you jealous?
01:01:52How can you be so cruel?
01:01:58You know who also loves him?
01:02:00His boyfriend, Luca?
01:02:03You thought wrong.
01:02:11We're still husband and wife.
01:02:13I would never betray those vows like that.
01:02:16No matter what.
01:02:18No matter how many times you remind me that this marriage really is.
01:02:28No way.
01:02:29What store did you get these from?
01:02:31I said I have one.
01:02:38You have to tell me how you got me.
01:02:40You have to tell me more right now or I'm eating them all without you.
01:02:46You made them?
01:02:48It's a secret.
01:02:48You made them though?
01:02:50You got in the kitchen?
01:02:51You got dirty?
01:02:52I wanted to give you what you wanted.
01:02:54And this is what, you know, you mentioned.
01:02:59Ava, you deserve someone better than me.
01:03:02To think that I let you down even once kills me.
01:03:06You made so many changes into your life to fit my world when really we should have been
01:03:12you creating a world of our own.
01:03:18Look at all these people.
01:03:20Rally behind you.
01:03:22Because you are a force.
01:03:25Inside and out.
01:03:26You are an inspiration.
01:03:28Inside and out.
01:03:31You are the most beautiful woman I have ever known.
01:03:34Ever since we were kids.
01:03:36Up until right now.
01:03:37I was so foolish.
01:03:40Not to admit it before.
01:03:42To worry about how I may look.
01:03:45Or to admit any kind of feeling for anyone, but it's you.
01:03:48I love you.
01:03:50And if you'll have me, I will spend the rest of my life proving to you that this marriage
01:03:57is more than just some convenient business deal to me.
01:04:04To me.
01:04:12To me.
01:04:25To be my life forever again.
01:04:29To pitch me.
01:04:30To be careful.
