00:00From the very first day, the lines were drawn.
00:12Wesley Anderson existed on a different planet.
00:17Planet popular.
00:19Planet perfect.
00:21The undisputed king of campus.
00:23Every gross fantasy.
00:26And me?
00:28Laurie Nielsen?
00:29Resident occupant of Planet...
00:32Invisible.
00:33Or worse...
00:35Planet...
00:36What is that on her face?
00:38Laurie, watch out!
00:46Well, if it isn't our celebrity, red-faced Laurie.
00:51Hmm.
00:52Well, what's this big show about?
00:54Probably to get Wesley's attention.
00:56Hmm.
00:57Because I guess other than that,
00:58Wesley would never give you a glance in his entire life.
01:05Wake up.
01:06Someone like you shouldn't even breathe the same air as him.
01:09Oh, shut up, Ashley!
01:11You know, you're sucked me up, please.
01:12Let's just go.
01:15Toodles!
01:16Don't listen to those harpies.
01:21Who says you don't have a shot?
01:24Three days.
01:25Okay, your shot comes in three days.
01:27What?
01:28The student council president?
01:29Wesley's sister?
01:30She's running a charity fundraiser?
01:32At the kissing birth?
01:34What does that have to do?
01:35Well, guess who Jennifer Strong-armed into being this year's main attraction at the Kisses for Charity?
01:39Wesley Anderson.
01:49Yeah, this is ridiculous.
01:50There's like a million girls out there.
01:51I can't kiss all of them.
01:52Think of the children that need our help, Wesley.
01:55It's for charity.
01:56Fine.
01:57Fine.
01:58But my lips are off limits.
01:59It's my final boundary.
02:00Ugh.
02:01Fine.
02:02Cheek it is.
02:03Next!
02:18God, it's my turn.
02:27Hey, are you okay?
02:28Oh my God, did you try to worship at his feet?
02:40Pathetic.
02:42Really?
02:43Lori?
02:44Did you think that falling in front of him was going to be your big chance?
02:57What the hell?
03:10From that day, I felt that Lady Luck had finally smiled on me.
03:22Mostly, I know him, but I guess I...
03:25Okay.
03:29Cut it out, okay?
03:31I can be your boyfriend.
03:32You can't tell anybody.
03:33Nobody can know.
03:38Just like that, I became his secret girlfriend.
03:42I thought that I was the luckiest girl alive.
03:47Until that day.
03:49He's gonna love this sports watch.
03:54Bro, are you seriously in love with the red-faced Lori?
03:57I mean, even though you, you know, lost the bed, it's been so long now.
04:02And we're about to graduate.
04:03Are you really gonna stick it with her?
04:08Of course not. Of course not.
04:15I'm gonna dump her after we graduate.
04:17Okay.
04:18Here's the way, brother.
04:22So that's how my pathetic story ends.
04:27We never saw each other again after that.
04:37Alright, we will let you know the results of the interview within a week, Mrs. Nielsen.
04:42Just call me Carol.
04:43Alright.
04:44Carol Littis.
04:45Carol Littis.
04:46Childless administration.

05:051
05:073
05:082
05:09Cody? Cody!
05:15Daddy!
05:27He's back. Does he recognize me?
05:32Mr. Anderson, I am so sorry. She was here for an interview. I'll escort them out immediately.
05:37Wait. What am I expecting? Of course he won't recognize me.
05:42I'm so sorry. Mr. Anderson, this will not happen again.
05:46Cody, we're going. Right now.
05:52She's a single mother. Special case. This won't happen again.
05:58Why does she seem familiar?
06:01Cody, you can't just run off like that. Especially with your hair condition.
06:05What if something had happened to you?
06:06Mom, was that Dad?
06:09He looks just like this.
06:13No. See? That wasn't him. That was just someone who looks like him.
06:18If he never wanted me, he would never want you.
06:23I will protect you from suffering the same humiliation I've endured.
06:27Some truths are better left buried.
06:29You've vanished since that day.
06:33I've been looking for you for seven years.
06:37Lori, where are you?
06:39Lori, where are you?
06:39Hello?
06:39Sorry. The number you dialed is out of service.
06:47Miss Nielsen, this is City General Hospital.
06:51The $20,000 fee for the space of cardiac treatment needs to be settled in full by next week.
07:09Okay, uh, sure. I will have the money.
07:16I must be seeing things.
07:18She couldn't be worried.
07:19Come on.
07:20What's up?
07:32Still wearing that cheap thing, huh?
07:37People are going to start thinking that the mighty Andersons have gone bankrupt.
07:42What do you want, Lucas?
07:43You've been back from Paris for, what, a week?
07:45Let's celebrate.
07:46All right, I'm throwing you a welcome home party.
07:49No, I'm not interested.
07:50Oh, come on.
07:52Look, I've invited all of our graduation class, including your ex, um...
07:56What was her name?
07:58Lori Nielsen?
08:02Elysium Bar.
08:03Tomorrow night, 8-sharp.
08:07Would she show up?
08:12Hey, Carol.
08:13Any, um, plans this weekend?
08:15Try and get a coffee or something?
08:17Oh, um, sorry.
08:19I'm married.
08:22You mean your fake marriage to Eric?
08:25Once his grandma passes, you're signing those divorce papers.
08:28Why say no to a date?
08:29Because I am not here to date.
08:31I'm going to make money.
08:32Cody.
08:35Private party tonight.
08:36Real high rollers.
08:37And they've requested special attire.
08:40Put these on.
08:42I'm not going to wear that.
08:43I thought you needed money for your son.
08:47Either you put this on, or you walk out that door right now.
08:49Hurry up.
09:03They're here.
09:04They're here.
09:04Oh my god!
09:22Oh my god!
09:23Oh my god!
09:23I heard Wesley came back to take over the Anderson group.
09:42I haven't seen this guy in years.
09:45I kind of miss him.
09:46He was kind of a campus hub group.
09:50I wonder if he's still single.
09:52Come on.
09:53It's none of your concern.
09:55Olivia is the only one who matches him.
09:57Exactly.
09:58You two were meant to be together.
10:05Welcome back, Wesley.
10:07I saved you a seat right next to you.
10:09Oh, it took you long enough, eh?
10:12Still like that?
10:13Mm-hmm.
10:14Something that's a shit.
10:16Remember, in school, everyone wants to date.
10:19Isn't that weirdo Lori Mason?
10:21No.
10:21Oh, please.
10:23She was such a clown.
10:25Do you remember that day she bumped straight into you?
10:28Oh, my God.
10:28Classic memory.
10:30So, what ever, uh, what ever happened to her anyway?
10:34No one knows.
10:36She kind of just vanished after graduation.
10:38But who cares?
10:39Probably dead in a ditch somewhere.
10:43Say that again.
10:44I don't know who this big shot is, but it appears that it's a huge and I'm going to kill him.
10:59You really don't know?
11:00It's from Wesley Anderson.
11:02Heir to the Anderson group.
11:04He's right over there.
11:04Hey, where are you going?
11:14I can't, I can't, I...
11:16Hey, we need more drinks here.
11:18What are you waiting for?
11:19Move.
11:24For Cody.
11:24Oh!
11:44I'm so sorry.
11:46It's gone.
11:48Those eyes, how can they be so much like hers?
12:13Are you looking to get fired, you idiot?
12:18Hey, are you okay?
12:22Wesley, please, let me handle this for you.
12:25Why does she give me such a similar feeling to love you?
12:29I have to know.
12:42Why does he always see me at my worst?
12:46Forget it.
12:48After tonight, you'll never have to see him again.
12:56Could it really be her?
12:58After all these years?
13:00I'm a dumper after graduation.
13:02Bears is way in.
13:04The number you are trying to reach is out of service.
13:20The number you are trying to reach is out of service.
13:26The number you are trying to reach is out of service.
13:30I must be losing my mind.
13:36She can't possibly be her.
13:40The number you are trying to reach is out of service.
13:46I am not going to be able to see you.
13:50The number you are trying to reach is out of service.
13:52I am not going to be able to reach out of service.
13:54What are you doing?
14:02Who are you?
14:04What?
14:04What is your name?
14:08Carol.
14:11Have we met before?
14:14Um, yeah.
14:16At your office?
14:18No, before that.
14:21No.
14:21How would a nobody like me ever meet someone like you?
14:34Look, Mr. Anderson, about your suit.
14:37I'm really, really sorry, and I'll pay for it.
14:41She's not Lori.
14:43What was I expecting?
14:46I'm sorry.
14:47What?
14:48For stopping you and scaring you.
14:51I just, you know, so much, like.
14:57Never mind.
14:59Why don't you allow me to drive you home?
15:03No.
15:05I'll manage.
15:09What, on that ankle?
15:10I don't think so.
15:12Plus, you think you're going to ruin a $5,000 suit and just walk away?
15:16Consider it your apology and mine.
15:20Let me drive you home.
15:21If you're solo!
15:23What?
15:24Can you make myself?
15:25Come on.
15:26I need to make myself.
15:31Come on.
15:32Come on.
15:36What?
15:36Wesley is mine.
15:38No one can take him from me.
15:40You're soaked, bitch.
15:42Seven years, no trace, did something happen to you?
15:57Hey Lucas, hey look I know you built up a network over the years, I need you to find
16:04out everything to happen to Laura Nielsen after graduation, yeah everything, alright
16:10the final shortlist for the executive assistant position, Mr. Anderson, even same last name,
16:25I want her, huh, Ms. Nielsen, this is Anderson Corporation HR, congratulations,
16:39you've been selected for the executive assistant position to Mr. Anderson himself.
16:45Work for him, after everything that happened, I can't.
16:54Laura, did you not get my text? I told you not to come, it's pouring out.
17:00It's date night, I didn't want to miss it.
17:30Will the father be here at your next prenatal checkup?
17:45No, he has no idea.
17:46Ms. Nielsen, the father has a right to know, I think you should tell him.
17:52Hello, Wesley's phone.
17:59I should have known better than to hope.
18:00I won't humiliate myself again.
18:01I should have known better than to hope.
18:06I won't humiliate myself again.
18:13I will humiliate myself again.
18:18Hello?
18:19Wesley's phone.
18:20I should have known better than to hope.
18:24I won't humiliate myself again.
18:27Smith, what an honor.
18:52Hey there, sweetheart.
18:54Nice ass.
18:55I want her here tomorrow morning, at 8 o'clock sharp.
19:03Uh, um, I'm afraid that won't be impossible.
19:07Why not?
19:08She, uh, she declined the offer.
19:14Someone actually said no to me.
19:19Oh, this is priceless.
19:22Her reason?
19:24She didn't give a full reason, sir, but she did say.
19:30What?
19:31She said she'd be an assistant for anyone, just not for you.
19:37Oh, my.
19:38I need to meet her.
19:42Ooh.
19:43You better back off right now or I will call the cops.
19:47Don't be like that, sweetheart.
19:48I just wanna have some fun.
19:49Who's this?
19:50Your husband?
19:51Actually, that is my husband and he's on his way right now.
19:53Kara, are you okay?
19:54Let go of me.
19:55Kara, where are you?
19:56Kara, where are you?
19:57Get off of me.
19:58Save the resistance for the bedroom.
19:59Fuck off.
20:00Fuck off!
20:01Who?
20:02Fuck off.
20:03Where are you?
20:04Damn, huh.
20:05I'm mad.
20:06Hey!
20:07Where are you?
20:08Who's this?
20:09Your husband?
20:10Actually, that is my husband and he's on his way right now.
20:11Kara, are you okay?
20:12Let go of me.
20:13Kara, where are you?
20:16Get off of me.
20:20Save the resistance for the bedroom.
20:22Fuck off!
20:23for the bedroom.
20:24Fuck off!
20:30What's going on here?
20:32They're harassing me.
20:37Is this how our staff treat our customers?
20:41Apologize.
20:43What?
20:44No, no way!
20:45Listen, Miss Smith owns this place.
20:47So if she says you're wrong, you apologize.
20:50Or you could lose your jaw.
20:53And that surgery might have you a little cracked.
21:01I'm sorry.
21:02I don't think that was nearly enough.
21:05I did what you asked.
21:20Let me help you get dry, baby.
21:30Die, bitch!
21:41Get the fuck out!
21:42Get the fuck out!
21:48This is unacceptable.
21:49We must tighten security.
21:51I'm so sorry, ma'am.
21:52Are you...
21:53You can leave, too.
21:56Oh, my God.
21:58Thank you, Mr. Morrison.
22:01What are you doing here?
22:02You said your husband was on his way, so...
22:05Uh...
22:06Oh...
22:08I...
22:09I didn't...
22:10Know that...
22:11You were the one who was calling.
22:12I was just...
22:13Trying to scare them.
22:14Where is this husband of yours?
22:15Does he always let you handle situations like this alone?
22:18He's...
22:20Working abroad.
22:25Oh, my God. Your arm.
22:27Wait, don't.
22:28Look, you'll get crazy if you see.
22:29Don't look.
22:30If the mighty Wesley Anderson faints because of a little blood, then...
22:32Everyone's gonna know your secret.
22:37What are you doing?
22:38How did you know I get scrimmaged about blood?
22:39Nobody else would cover my eyes like this.
22:40I'm sick.
22:41I'm sick.
22:42I'm sick.
22:43I'm sick.
22:44I'm sick.
22:45I'm sick.
22:46I'm sick.
22:47I'm sick.
22:48I'm sick.
22:49I'm sick.
22:50I'm sick.
22:51I'm sick.
22:52I'm sick.
22:53I'm sick.
22:54I'm sick.
22:55I'm sick.
22:56I'm sick.
22:57I'm sick.
22:58I'm sick.
22:59But...
23:07left me for?
23:08I don't know what you're talking about.
23:10My son, he gets dizzy when he sees blood, so.
23:14Because it's just a force of habit.
23:19Why did you refuse the job?
23:20I'd be an assistant for anybody except him.
23:23Why?
23:24That!
23:26Um...
23:27Carol, you need to come home now.
23:34Cody collapsed.
23:35What?
23:36I'll be right there.
23:39Mr. Surgent, we've already prioritized him to the highest level.
23:43Grab him for surgery.
23:44Immediately.
23:45We do have a donor heart that matched him, but our lead surgical team is currently in
23:49another procedure.
23:50We're critically short-staffed.
23:52Well, there must be someone else.
23:53Please.
23:53Get the best cardiac team in here right now.
23:55I'll pay for all the expenses.
23:57Yes, Mr. Anderson.
23:58Right away.
24:06The surgery was a success.
24:09Thank you so much.
24:14Mr. Anderson, I don't even know how to put into words how grateful I am.
24:19My office.
24:20Tomorrow morning, 8 o'clock.
24:23Don't be late.
24:25All right.
24:31You will manage Mr. Anderson's entire schedule.
24:35Emails, meetings, evening his lunch.
24:39She gets to be that close to Mr. Anderson all day.
24:42Look at that face all day.
24:44Lucky.
24:44Familiarize yourself by current schedule and this week's agenda.
24:52Of course, Mr. Anderson.
24:54She's working for him.
25:03She's working for him.
25:04That's social informing, bitch.
25:09Get her out.
25:12I don't care how.
25:15Make it look like she messed up.
25:18Harold, hi.
25:22Mr. Anderson needs a smile at home tonight.
25:25Just place it on his home office desk.
25:28Okay.
25:29Of course.
25:32Mr. Anderson never lets anyone in his study.
25:36Tomorrow, she'll definitely get fired.
25:39Nice.
25:40Oh my god.
26:04I'm so sorry.
26:06I was just dropping this off.
26:07I had no idea that you were in your home.
26:11Wesley?
26:12Are you ready for our date?
26:15God, not hurry.
26:17Oh.
26:20What are you doing?
26:21Shh.
26:21Wesley, are you here?
26:23What the hell?
26:35What are you doing?
26:37It is as you see it.
26:39See yourself out.
26:44Okay, she's gone, so your little performance could be over.
26:50Um, get off of me, baby.
26:54Mr. Anderson, I'm your assistant.
26:56Next time you want to scare off a date, hire someone else.
26:59I'm not your prop, okay?
27:00Okay, look, it's not like that.
27:01I was just...
27:02What do you think you're doing?
27:26What do you think you're doing?
27:27I was just putting the files off.
27:31Who said you can be in here?
27:32I...
27:33Ashley told me to...
27:34Enough!
27:39I am sorry.
27:40Mr. Anderson, it will not happen again.
27:47Did you just take a photo of me?
27:51Sorry.
27:51I know that we're a secret.
27:55I wasn't going to show anyone.
27:59You don't have to stay at moments, Laurie.
28:09Carol.
28:10Okay.
28:10Okay.
28:10Hey, I, uh, tracked down some information about Laurie.
28:31She was in a terrible car accident,
28:33and I heard she was severely injured trying to save her child.
28:36A car accident?
28:38When?
28:38Wait, wait, wait.
28:39She has a child?
28:41Where are they?
28:45Where are they?
28:46I'm sorry, ma'am.
28:47She dropped off the grid after that.
28:49She just vanished.
28:51No, I need you to keep looking.
28:53Find her whatever it takes.
29:00Carol?
29:01My office, please.
29:07What?
29:07She didn't get fired?
29:16Carol, listen.
29:17Oh, last night.
29:19Wesley?
29:20Who the hell was that woman at your house last night?
29:23Uh, Mom, right now's not the best time.
29:25Are you seeing someone?
29:26Who is she?
29:27Who was that woman?
29:29Who is she?
29:32Right behind you.
29:32Uh, no, it's not like that.
29:41I'm his assistant.
29:43I'm married.
29:44I was dropping off a file.
29:46That's...
29:46Oh.
29:48You heard her.
29:49She's my assistant.
29:51You can go now, assistant.
29:52Wesley, don't tell me you're still hung up on the ex-girlfriend from college.
30:01Are you?
