00:00:00Look, babe, we're just like Jack and Rose.
00:00:27Hey, Janet.
00:00:30You jump, I jump.
00:00:35You promise.
00:00:37Always.
00:00:39Oh, thank you.
00:00:42It's the future.
00:00:44It's the future.
00:00:49Give me a second.
00:00:59You okay?
00:01:00Yeah.
00:01:02Mia!
00:01:06You jump.
00:01:07I don't.
00:01:11I don't.
00:01:12Let go, Ryan.
00:01:16Your company.
00:01:17Your empire.
00:01:18It's all mine now, baby.
00:01:24It's all mine now, baby.
00:01:26I am Ryan Chase, the CEO of the Chase Corporation.
00:01:31Youngest billionaire under 30 and Forbes.
00:01:33My fiancee, Mia, tried to murder me.
00:01:34She poisoned me, pushed me off the yacht.
00:01:36I survived, but I lost my voice, my empire, my life.
00:01:40But fate threw me a lifeline.
00:01:41A girl with no voice, but the kindest soul I've ever met.
00:01:47My fiancee.
00:01:48My fiancee, Mia, tried to murder me.
00:01:50She poisoned me, pushed me off the yacht.
00:01:53I survived, but I lost my voice, my empire, my life.
00:01:58But fate threw me a lifeline.
00:02:02A girl with no voice, but the kindest soul I've ever met.
00:02:06Are you okay?
00:02:36She saved me.
00:02:38Gave me a second shot at life.
00:02:41Are you okay?
00:02:46I'm like you.
00:02:51I can't speak either.
00:02:54But losing your voice doesn't mean surrendering to life.
00:03:02What's in here, it speaks louder than your voice ever could.
00:03:21My diner needs some extra hands, just grunt work.
00:03:25Pays crap, but at least it comes with a bed.
00:03:29Better than sleeping next to garbage.
00:03:31Unexpected humanly.
00:03:34Be wild.
00:03:39Be wild.
00:03:58Let me find out.
00:04:00You stole my company, tried to kill me, this isn't over, I'll make you pay.
00:04:30Sophia, are you out of your fucking mind? This isn't a soup kitchen. You can't be bringing bums into our diner.
00:04:43He's not a bum. He just, he needs a job.
00:04:49Well, he looks like roadkill. Oh, Jesus, and that smell could clear out a super. Get him the hell out of here.
00:04:58Hello? Anyone there?
00:05:02What makes you think you can come in here smelling like death, like a corpse, even flies, but in touch?
00:05:08Are you trying to scare off my customers or something?
00:05:14He can work. He's tough. Tougher than anyone I've met.
00:05:20Tough? He's a goddamn superbat. Look at him. He's too filthy to even mop the floor.
00:05:27He can scrub toilets, lift crates, even fix the busted faucet in the back, right?
00:05:33Get him the hell out of here. I won't have trash sticking up my diner.
00:05:39You ungrateful brat!
00:05:43I beat you. I house you. And this is how you want to show your appreciation. One more stunt like that, and you're sleeping on the curb tonight.
00:05:53Free labor. What's going on here?
00:06:05You have any job experience, kid?
00:06:15We're short-staffed around here. You're hired.
00:06:19Ryan's reign is over. Now, this is my empire.
00:06:41Ms. Vaughn, you have no right to set foot in Chase Corps without board approval.
00:06:57You sure about that? Last I checked, I was the sole heir of Chase Corporation.
00:07:04Ryan's missing, not dead. The board hasn't authorized the transfer of ownership.
00:07:09Missing? He's been gone for two months. I think you're living in a fantasy world.
00:07:15Even if he were dead, you'd still get nothing. You're his fiancée, not his heir.
00:07:24Fiancée? Please. We've been married for months.
00:07:30As of today, I'm Mrs. Ryan Chase, the legal heir of this entire empire.
00:07:37Funny. Last I'd heard, he hadn't even bought you an engagement ring. Now you're married.
00:07:43We kept it hidden. You didn't want the media poking around in our lives.
00:07:49Let me see that.
00:07:59You psycho!
00:08:00The Chase Corporation plays by just one rule.
00:08:04If Ryan's alive, he's the king.
00:08:07If he's dead, his company burns to the ground before it ever falls into your hands.
00:08:17One more word, and I spray this lobby red with your brains.
00:08:22Try it. You pull that trigger.
00:08:26And our legal team will make sure that you spend the rest of your life scrubbing toilets in a federal prison.
00:08:31Activate the contingency plan.
00:08:41If Ryan doesn't show in three days, continue with the takeover.
00:08:46Three days, Thomas. That's your countdown.
00:08:58Word out to every news outlet.
00:09:00I'm putting out a $10 million bounty.
00:09:02Find the boss.
00:09:04Now!
00:09:25Keep it, kid.
00:09:26It's been two months.
00:09:28Go get yourself some decent clothes.
00:09:36Get a haircut.
00:09:37You'll look handsome.
00:09:39What the hell are you giving money to the bum for?
00:09:43He agreed to no pay.
00:09:45He's still an employee, Diane.
00:09:47You want him to work for free?
00:09:49You agreed.
00:09:51He wants money.
00:09:52He can get the hell out.
00:09:56You want to defend yourself?
00:09:59Speak up.
00:10:03You pathetic mute freak.
00:10:09Ryan's not pathetic.
00:10:11That's enough, Diane.
00:10:12One step too far.
00:10:14Am I wrong?
00:10:16Oh, please.
00:10:17Don't tell me you're feeling sorry for him now.
00:10:19Why don't you just go ahead and marry him off to Sophia then?
00:10:23Let the two mute misfits rot together.
00:10:29Fine.
00:10:31We'll get married.
00:10:34And my whole paycheck goes to him.
00:10:38Mrs. Rich, you want to marry a bum.
00:10:41You must be as stupid as your mother.
00:10:46That's enough, Diane.
00:10:48Sophia, I'm not going to let you do this.
00:10:51You might be different, but you deserve better than him.
00:10:55Way better.
00:10:57Oh, wake up already, James.
00:10:59This bum is the best Sophia's ever going to get.
00:11:02Dad, I'm not embarrassed of him.
00:11:05He works tough days.
00:11:07And he never complains.
00:11:09Compare that to the men who mock me.
00:11:12Sophia, your wedding day, it should be...
00:11:15A real wedding doesn't need a five-star hotel.
00:11:21Just someone who treats me right.
00:11:24At least he doesn't make fun of me for being mute behind my back.
00:11:27Sorry I failed you.
00:11:31I couldn't even protect my own daughter.
00:11:34If you hadn't pulled me out of that alley, I'd be dead.
00:11:39Now it's my turn to protect you, Sophia.
00:11:45I swear, I'll protect you.
00:11:52Fine.
00:11:53Take your precious paycheck and get the hell out.
00:11:59Let's see how long the two of you can last in the real world.
00:12:23I've been waiting for you to
00:12:40Whoa!
00:12:42Have you always been this hot?
00:12:44Well, I'm all yours.
00:12:46I'm all yours.
00:13:17For showing me I deserve to be loved, too.
00:13:20No.
00:13:24For making me feel human again.
00:13:47Oh, I see.
00:14:00Finally realizing your husband's actually a stud.
00:14:04Guess I hit the jackpot.
00:14:08I'll see you next time.
00:14:38Chase, the Chase Corporation, has issued a $10 million reward for any information.
00:14:43James!
00:14:44James, get in here!
00:14:50Sophia!
00:14:50Sophia!
00:14:55Sophia!
00:14:55Sophia!
00:14:56Sophia!
00:14:57Get your butt down here!
00:14:59Sophia!
00:15:00Sophia!
00:15:01Sophia!
00:15:31Ryan. No, not me. I see the resemblance, though.
00:15:36I knew it. You, a billionaire? Please. You're not even worth the gum under my shoe.
00:15:43I still can't believe you married this broke leech. What a joke.
00:15:48Please, don't talk about Ryan like that.
00:15:50Oh, he's got claws. You two really are a perfect pair. A leech and a loser.
00:15:58It wasn't enough to eat our food and sleep under our roof, was it?
00:16:04No, you had to go and con Sophia into marrying you, too.
00:16:07You must think we're pretty stupid, huh?
00:16:09That's enough, Diane. Ignore her.
00:16:12This place, this diner, it was always meant for Sophia.
00:16:15What? You're leaving it to her?
00:16:18Me and my late wife built this diner. It was always meant for Sophia.
00:16:23Bullshit. Who do you think's been keeping this place running all these years?
00:16:26And you're going to leave it to two broke losers who can't even afford the rent?
00:16:33You really think that they can keep it running?
00:16:37That's enough, Diane.
00:16:39This diner was built by Sophia's mom. It belongs to her.
00:16:42What about me? What about Mike, my son?
00:16:46That's already been settled.
00:16:49The diner goes to Sophia. The savings account goes to Mike.
00:16:52Over my body.
00:17:01They both belong to my son.
00:17:04As for you, you can start picking up double ships.
00:17:08And you can crawl back into whatever gutter you came out of.
00:17:13They are my family.
00:17:15Don't you dare.
00:17:17Marrying you was the biggest mistake of my life.
00:17:27Dad?
00:17:28Dad, are you okay?
00:17:31Take a good look, honey.
00:17:34This diner belongs to you and me.
00:17:38What? When?
00:17:39Last year, while you were in the hospital, I had the deed changed.
00:17:45Now you two pack up your little bags and get the hell out of my dying.
00:17:52Diane!
00:17:53Diane!
00:17:53All subsidiary accounts are frozen.
00:18:08And here are the transfer documents, ma'am.
00:18:11Hmm.
00:18:12In 12 hours, everything Ryan Chase ever owned will be mine.
00:18:18All of it.
00:18:19The surgery your father needs would cost a million dollars.
00:18:29He's uninsured.
00:18:30No payment, no procedure.
00:18:33Please, you can't let him die.
00:18:41Diane!
00:18:42She has the money.
00:18:44Honey, wait.
00:18:45I'll beg.
00:18:49Please, I am begging you.
00:18:53He needs the surgery and the doctor said that it would cost a million.
00:18:56Hmm.
00:18:56So you come crawling back.
00:18:58You know, you could have begged like this when your daddy was giving away my son's diner.
00:19:03He is going to die.
00:19:05Please.
00:19:06Then let him die.
00:19:07When he's gone, everything's mine anyway.
00:19:10His diner, his cash, all mine.
00:19:14Why don't you start a GoFundMe page or something?
00:19:19Tell me you found Ryan.
00:19:27We've searched every private jet log, every hotel, every port.
00:19:31He's vanished.
00:19:32Keep looking.
00:19:33I don't care if you have to dig through every alley in New York.
00:19:37Psycho Mia's already planning her victory party.
00:19:39If I go back now, it's over.
00:19:45But I will not let Sophia suffer.
00:19:49Are you gonna hit me?
00:19:52Go ahead.
00:19:54Try it.
00:19:55I'll have the police here so fast it'll make your head spin.
00:19:59You know, I should have sent you away a long time ago.
00:20:09Don't touch my wife.
00:20:21Don't touch my wife.
00:20:25You can talk.
00:20:28Big deal.
00:20:29So you can speak.
00:20:31You want that money so badly?
00:20:32Why don't you go beg for it on the street?
00:20:35That's what you're good at, right?
00:20:37I will work for free for the rest of my life.
00:20:39Please just save my dad.
00:20:42So touching.
00:20:45But not my problem.
00:20:47As you said, without that surgery, your daddy's gonna die.
00:20:51And when he does, you're not getting a single cent from me.
00:20:56You know you're not gonna get away with this, right?
00:20:59You're threatening me.
00:21:02Keep it up.
00:21:03And I'll dump the both of you out back for the rats to pick Clee.
00:21:08Don't hurt him.
00:21:09Let's go.
00:21:09We're leaving right now.
00:21:19You're finished.
00:21:26One more hour and this entire billion dollar empire is mine.
00:21:39Three hundred people searching.
00:21:42All of New York.
00:21:43And you're telling me that we've still found nothing.
00:21:47Nothing.
00:21:55Thomas, it's me.
00:21:57I'm back.
00:22:08Sir, where are you?
00:22:10We'll have a car sent to you immediately.
00:22:13I can't leave right now, Thomas.
00:22:14But I need you to send me a million dollars.
00:22:16I need you to do it right now.
00:22:18Sir.
00:22:18What do you mean you can't leave?
00:22:21You've got ten minutes before Mia takes everything.
00:22:24I'm still recovering.
00:22:28Wow.
00:22:29Such dramatics.
00:22:31Oh, oh, wait.
00:22:32Let me guess your tragic backstory.
00:22:35You faked an injury so that you could beg for money.
00:22:39Hmm?
00:22:41Are you okay?
00:22:44As for Mia, initiate protocol zero.
00:22:56Mr. Chase, are you sure?
00:22:58That would split the ownership shares between all 37 executives.
00:23:02Your ownership would tank below 10%.
00:23:04Now.
00:23:06Also, Thomas, I'm going to write a public letter
00:23:08describing every detail of my disappearance.
00:23:11I'm trusting you to handle it.
00:23:13Understood.
00:23:14I'll take care of it personally.
00:23:17But Mia's already signing.
00:23:18Do what the CEO says.
00:23:21Now.
00:23:25Well, you're committed to the bid.
00:23:27I'll give you that.
00:23:28Protocol zero?
00:23:30What do you think?
00:23:31You're some Wall Street king or something?
00:23:34Yeah, what makes you think I'm not?
00:23:36Well, okay, Mr. Wall Street.
00:23:38You produce one million dollars right here, right now.
00:23:42And I'll apologize on my knees.
00:23:48Three minutes.
00:23:50You're going to be on your knees apologizing to my face.
00:23:56Faster.
00:23:57Almost there.
00:23:58Come on.
00:23:59Come on, big money.
00:24:00Ten more seconds.
00:24:08What the hell is happening?
00:24:10System access.
00:24:13Relax.
00:24:14We've been frozen.
00:24:16Are you fucking kidding me?
00:24:17It was one second.
00:24:19It was one goddamn second.
00:24:21Unlock it now, or I swear both of you are fired.
00:24:25They can't unlock it.
00:24:32Thomas.
00:24:33Of course.
00:24:34You again.
00:24:35The day that Chase Corporation was founded,
00:24:38Ryan drafted something called Protocol Zero.
00:24:43Once triggered, all assets are frozen.
00:24:46Shares redistributed.
00:24:48No one touches a thing.
00:24:50Ryan planned this?
00:24:52I was planning this from day one.
00:25:08This isn't over.
00:25:10Did you hear me?
00:25:11None of you are safe.
00:25:19I'm sending you an account.
00:25:20Wire one million to it.
00:25:22What should I list it under?
00:25:24Let's just say, reward money for information on Mr. Chase.
00:25:30Three minutes?
00:25:32You couldn't cough up 50 bucks if you had three years.
00:25:37Why, if Sophia hadn't gone soft,
00:25:39you would still be eating out of dumpsters.
00:25:43Two minutes.
00:25:45Let's just go.
00:25:46Forget the money.
00:25:48What's the matter?
00:25:49Losing your nerve?
00:25:52Can't keep the act going, hmm?
00:25:55One minute.
00:25:56This is comedy gold.
00:25:58Now, tell us, Mr. Wall Street,
00:26:00what magic trick is going to produce this one million dollars in the next 60 seconds?
00:26:06Honey, I told you, nobody is going to hurt you ever again.
00:26:27This can't be real.
00:26:29This can't be real.
00:26:30You promised.
00:26:31What promise?
00:26:32Apologize.
00:26:34On your knees.
00:26:35Now!
00:26:36Let's just go.
00:26:46Dad's surgery is what's important.
00:26:49I'm sorry.
00:26:53Let's get out of here.
00:26:54You think you've won.
00:27:06No.
00:27:08James' money is mine.
00:27:11Sophia, I swear, I will never let anything bad happen to you again.
00:27:29James!
00:27:32You're awake!
00:27:33Oh, I was so worried.
00:27:37Oh, I was so scared.
00:27:39Scared?
00:27:39You were probably praying I wouldn't make it.
00:27:43Well, how could you say that?
00:27:46This surgery cost a million dollars.
00:27:49A million?
00:27:50Is that true?
00:27:52I guess I was wrong about you, the diner.
00:27:56Well, we could talk about it later.
00:27:58Wait a second.
00:28:04Where's Ryan?
00:28:06Ryan?
00:28:09Oh, um, he talks now.
00:28:12Says he's off doing rehab or whatever.
00:28:16More like dodging actual work.
00:28:18That's not true.
00:28:19Ryan's...
00:28:20Please.
00:28:21He hasn't shown up once in three whole days.
00:28:24Who's been doing all the cooking?
00:28:26Who's been wiping the sweat off your father's brow?
00:28:29Me.
00:28:29That's enough.
00:28:30I'm tired.
00:28:31Please.
00:28:32Just go.
00:28:43The body's coming back.
00:28:52Why hasn't Thomas hit me back?
00:28:53It's been two days.
00:28:54Come on, Thomas.
00:28:55Don't tell me you're trying to get my job, too.
00:29:01Sir, me if people are tracking Ryan's wire transfers.
00:29:05Let her dig.
00:29:07She won't find anything.
00:29:09Ryan, if you really were dead...
00:29:12Man, this would be so much easier.
00:29:13Mr. Chase, finally.
00:29:22I'm starting to think you ghosted me.
00:29:24Thomas, did you get my letter to the license?
00:29:27Oh, yeah.
00:29:28I got it.
00:29:29But me as people are on your bank records like bloodhounds.
00:29:32I had to be careful, you know?
00:29:34Anyways, Mr. Chase, those overseas contracts are about to expire.
00:29:38We need you back steering the ship.
00:29:40How about I come pick you up myself?
00:29:42Just drop your location.
00:29:44Just like I thought.
00:29:46You're not trying to welcome me back.
00:29:48You're trying to track me down.
00:29:50And what's waiting for me isn't a warm reception.
00:29:52It's a bullet.
00:29:54No thanks.
00:29:55I'm still recovering.
00:29:56But as far as the contract's concerned, why don't you set up a video meeting for tomorrow?
00:30:002 p.m.
00:30:01Damn it!
00:30:08Schedule a meeting with the International Board for 2 p.m. tomorrow.
00:30:12Wait.
00:30:14Make sure Mia's invited, too.
00:30:20Let's see.
00:30:20Mia's gone in for me.
00:30:22Thomas wants me dead, and I'm in no condition to go head-to-head with these workers.
00:30:25If I can't reclaim the company, I'll be damned if those cocksuckers walk away with it.
00:30:36This meeting contains top-tier classified intel.
00:30:40Phones on silent.
00:30:42No recordings.
00:30:43Break that rule.
00:30:44Face legal hell.
00:30:45What is this, the CIA?
00:30:47Talk faster, Thomas.
00:30:49What the hell does any of this have to even do with me?
00:30:52Patience, Mia.
00:30:53You've got a big surprise coming your way.
00:30:57Look, I don't give a shit about any of this.
00:31:00All I care about are Ryan's shares.
00:31:03Understood?
00:31:04Start the feed.
00:31:08Hello, everyone.
00:31:10No.
00:31:11No.
00:31:12This isn't possible.
00:31:14I pushed him into the damn ocean myself.
00:31:17How the hell is he still breathing?
00:31:19Mia, you look pale.
00:31:21Should I call a doctor?
00:31:23Spare me your fake concern.
00:31:25I'm just surprised, that's all.
00:31:28What is this?
00:31:29Did you get a body double?
00:31:31I have to say, the acting's impressive.
00:31:33Well, I appreciate your concern.
00:31:35Seems like I rattled some cages in my hiatus.
00:31:37Mr. Chase, Wall Street's been holding its breath, waiting for your return.
00:31:43Our stocks have already tanked 18% without you.
00:31:48Mr. Chase, praise me by Allah.
00:31:51It's really you.
00:31:52Bloody hell.
00:31:54We've been holding off every deal, waiting for your signature.
00:31:58Brother Ryan, if you don't come back soon, we'll all screw down here.
00:32:02Ah, madam.
00:32:04If you fuck it yet...
00:32:06Enough, it's just.
00:32:07We'll look cool, did it lie, or spoiled, Jay.
00:32:10Lucas.
00:32:12Tell the London Exchange to please prepare for a 30% surge in Chase stock.
00:32:17Victor.
00:32:18I knew it.
00:32:24Only Ryan Chase could pull a power move like that.
00:32:27But boss, most of our major partners are requesting a face-to-face signing.
00:32:33If you don't show up and soon, we could kiss a trillion dollar deal goodbye.
00:32:39Show up.
00:32:41I dare you.
00:32:42This time, I'm gonna watch that bullet rip through your heart.
00:32:46Well, let's see.
00:32:48The doctors say I'll need at least three months to recover.
00:32:51Don't worry, Mia.
00:32:52As long as the Chase Foundation is standing, the business will be booming.
00:32:57Understood.
00:32:58We'll handle it.
00:33:00Mashallah.
00:33:01We'll see you when you return.
00:33:03Stronger than ever.
00:33:04That's hot.
00:33:05Cheerio.
00:33:09And...
00:33:09What about the stock?
00:33:11Well, as all of you know, I've already initiated Protocol Zero.
00:33:14So stock initiation is underway.
00:33:17And I decided to donate all of my shares to the Chase Foundation.
00:33:23A charity?
00:33:24What about our preferred shares?
00:33:26Bullshit!
00:33:27That's not Ryan.
00:33:28He would never hand over his empire so easily.
00:33:32Mr. Chase, doesn't this all seem a little...
00:33:35sudden?
00:33:36Why?
00:33:37It's my fortune.
00:33:40Shouldn't I get to decide what to do with it?
00:33:42I don't buy it.
00:33:44Unless you show up here and sign them yourself.
00:33:48Bias?
00:33:49This whole thing is a goddamn scam.
00:33:53Mia, do you really think that I've forgotten what you did to me?
00:33:56The day I come back, this is the day that we settle the score.
00:34:02Oh, please!
00:34:03You don't even have the balls to show your face!
00:34:06You really think you could threaten me?
00:34:08Thomas, this is a closed board meeting.
00:34:10Why is she here?
00:34:11He invited me!
00:34:14This whole thing is a goddamn setup!
00:34:17Mr. Chase, she has been hounding your whereabouts.
00:34:20Harassing our employees.
00:34:22I only let her in so she could see with her own eyes that you're alive.
00:34:25So maybe she'd finally shut the hell up.
00:34:31Security.
00:34:32Mia, this room is for board members only.
00:34:35You've seen enough.
00:34:36It's time for you to go.
00:34:38Let go of me!
00:34:41Fake!
00:34:42This is all fake!
00:34:44Get your hands off me!
00:34:47This is fake, Ryan!
00:34:51Fine.
00:34:51Boss, if you're really donating all of your shares, what happens to the board?
00:35:00Will Thomas?
00:35:02What do you think should happen?
00:35:03According to protocol, the second largest shareholder will assume the role as chairman.
00:35:09That would be me.
00:35:11Unless you object, I see no problem with steering this company forward.
00:35:16Steering it forward?
00:35:18Or swallowing the hole?
00:35:20Thomas.
00:35:21Answer me.
00:35:24Ryan, this company cannot be run by a ghost behind a screen.
00:35:29I'm simply just doing what's best for Chase Corps.
00:35:32And if I don't agree?
00:35:34Don't agree?
00:35:35Too late.
00:35:37The second you initiated protocol zero, I started locking down support.
00:35:41I've already secured all of my votes.
00:35:43Let's vote.
00:35:44Right now.
00:35:45Who supports me taking over his chair?
00:35:48I support.
00:35:48I support.
00:35:51I support.
00:35:53Thomas really might get the better fit now.
00:35:57You see, Ryan?
00:35:59This company is mine now.
00:36:02We'll see about that.
00:36:04This is just the beginning.
00:36:06As CEO of Chase Corps, I'm a billionaire.
00:36:09You are a ghost.
00:36:15GPS signal confirmed.
00:36:17Location locked.
00:36:21He's calling me.
00:36:22Well, I'm still on the damn call.
00:36:29You really did it, Thomas, didn't you?
00:36:31It doesn't matter.
00:36:36You're a viper, a liar, and a fucking snake.
00:36:39But I'm coming for you.
00:36:46Losing the company doesn't matter.
00:36:4970% of our business is overseas, and those CEOs only answer to me.
00:36:53It's not over.
00:36:59Hi.
00:36:59Hi.
00:37:00Hi.
00:37:02You look tired today.
00:37:09No.
00:37:10It's just business headaches.
00:37:12Don't worry.
00:37:13I'm okay.
00:37:13Hey, what's wrong?
00:37:32We're having a baby.
00:37:40Baby, you...
00:37:42Oh, my God.
00:37:52This is the best news of my life.
00:37:54I'm...
00:37:55I'm going to be a dad.
00:38:04This is the best news of my life.
00:38:12You've got me.
00:38:14You've got our baby.
00:38:16She's right.
00:38:18I've still got Sophia, and now our baby.
00:38:22There's no way I'm losing this fight.
00:38:24I'm going to be a dad.
00:38:25Time to launch phase two.
00:38:28Why so serious?
00:38:30You pulled off one hell of an upset today.
00:38:33Cut the act.
00:38:34You were the one who planned the whole thing.
00:38:35I was just bait for Ryan.
00:38:39Cut to the chase.
00:38:41What are you having?
00:38:43Money?
00:38:45Power?
00:38:46What if I told you...
00:38:54I want it all.
00:39:01I'd say that's exactly the kind of greed I admire.
00:39:04I want Ryan's shares, a seat at the board, and a VP title over international.
00:39:10Too late.
00:39:13He's already locked all his damn shares into that charity trust fund.
00:39:16It's untouchable.
00:39:22Then let's make it touchable.
00:39:29You're the new CEO now.
00:39:31I'm sure you've got a few tricks up your sleeve.
00:39:34And what do I get in return?
00:39:37You see something you like.
00:39:41Then take it.
00:39:42Even if it's me.
00:39:48Starting tomorrow.
00:39:51Chase Corp will officially label Ryan dead.
00:39:54Anyone claiming to be him afterwards.
00:39:57They'll just be labeled another fraud.
00:40:03Well.
00:40:05Looks like we're on the same team now, Thomas.
00:40:07I hope you play nice.
00:40:11Of course, sweetheart.
00:40:12Don't you worry.
00:40:14This time tomorrow, the Wall Street Journal will be flooded with headlines about Ryan's death.
00:40:20What's your next move, Mr. Brilliant CEO?
00:40:24Well, first, we start by locking down the international waters.
00:40:29Chase Corp pulls about 70% of its revenue from overseas.
00:40:33You remember Ahmed from the video call?
00:40:35Where it is?
00:40:36He's vacationing in Palm Beach this month.
00:40:38I've got a $2 million gift lined up for him.
00:40:44A $2 billion oil contract.
00:40:48Hours for the taking.
00:40:49I'm coming too.
00:40:52Besides, when it comes to men, I've got you beat.
00:40:55Don't go giving that body to anyone else, Mia.
00:41:02You belong to me now.
00:41:05Hmm.
00:41:06Okay, so what we've got is a Wagyu seared, perfectly seared, ribeye.
00:41:16Uh, crispy on the outside, but juicy in the middle.
00:41:23All right.
00:41:28That is for you, my dear.
00:41:29And I, I love you, but you really need to eat some more protein these days.
00:41:37What?
00:41:39What?
00:41:40It's the, it's this.
00:41:44You look harder than a Michelin chef right now.
00:41:48Only the best for the love of my life.
00:41:54Something's on your mind?
00:41:56Honey, I think I need to take a quick trip.
00:42:02Um, just see some friends, but I'll be gone for just like two days at most.
00:42:09Friends?
00:42:11Anyone I know?
00:42:13Think of them more like, uh, colleagues.
00:42:17But I'll be right back.
00:42:18We're just gonna do some catching up.
00:42:20If they're old colleagues, shouldn't you change into something less chef-y?
00:42:32Well, they don't really judge.
00:42:34They're good friends.
00:42:35They love me.
00:42:36We'll just say that they love me.
00:42:39Fine.
00:42:40Just be careful.
00:42:43And no drinking.
00:42:43And, oh, uh, take dad's car.
00:42:48Yes, ma'am.
00:42:49You got it.
00:42:59Hey.
00:43:01Bon appetit.
00:43:01Mia Thomas.
00:43:10When I take back control overseas, you're both done.
00:43:17That oil crisis three years ago, Ryan flipped the market with one call.
00:43:2340% spike.
00:43:25Just like that.
00:43:26His hedge strategy is still printing money to this day.
00:43:33Nobody has seen a business move like that in years.
00:43:37Uh, when Ryan shows up, call us immediately.
00:43:44A guy with oil sheiks, finance sharks, and Asian tycoons that I can call?
00:43:52But he rolls up in Armani suit and a million-dollar watch.
00:43:55Oh, or maybe he lands in his private jet on a roof with ten bodyguards and a hawk on his arm.
00:44:03No.
00:44:14Ew.
00:44:18Sorry.
00:44:19Kitchen deliveries go out back.
00:44:20We wouldn't want scruffy people like you ruining the guest experience.
