["You Sexy Thing"

by Hot Chocolate playing]

[funky soul music continuing]

I believe in miracles

Where you from, you sexy thing

You sexy thing, you

I believe in miracles

Hey.

Since you came along, you sexy thing

[record scratch]

-So nice to finally meet you.

-Please, lower your expectations.

I'm way more charming on email.

-[man chuckles]

-Well

I'm glad you asked me out. Finally.

I'm a cardio girl. I don't normally

just hang out by the weights.

I do not normally lift that much.

It was either ask you out

or get a hernia trying to impress you.

So, okay, why did you leave

London for New Jersey?

It was a job opportunity.

I'm an in-house lawyer at Air Cruz.

-Oh, I love Air Cruz. Thank you.

-Thank you.

Always on time, great snacks.

Cheers.

[man] I love your commercials.

"I'm not just the CEO of Air Cruz,

I'm also a pilot."

[woman] I hate doing those.

My dad used to do them,

then when he retired, I had to do them.

It's the worst part of the job.

Ah, you're great.

My ex-wife is going to be so jealous that

I am on a date with the Air Cruz lady.

Oh, this is not a date.

This is a work dinner.

Well

A little birdie told me

that you're single.

-And so am I legally now.

-Oh.

Best six months of my life.

Well

-I'm here to talk business. So yeah.

-Sorry, you're right.

Trust me, the last thing

I want to talk about is my ex-wife.

Okay.

Stacey.

Mm. [slurping] But, wait,

wasn't that like a huge demotion?

Oh. Um I don't know.

Practicing international law

on a global scale is rewarding,

but today at Air Cruz,

I did resolve a dispute between

a passenger and an emotional support dog.

Ooh.

You're hiding something. Thank you.

Why did you really leave?

-Did you quit, or did you get fired?

-No.

You can tell me anything.

I'm like a vault.

Like, my ex-boyfriend gave me scabies

and I didn't tell a soul.

Well done.

Air Cruz is expanding

into Dallas-Fort Worth.

-It's huge for us.

-Dallas.

And I'd like the lounge there to reflect

and be kind of like a cathedral for--

Larry?

Oh. Uh

Excuse me. Um

Stacey's from Dallas.

Oh.

That's where we met.

Mmm.

[Larry breathing shakily]

[Larry stifles sob]

Are you crying?

[whimpering] No, no, no.

I'm not crying. I'm not crying.

[Larry sobs]

-Larry!

-I'm sorry!

Should we get some food?

Let's get some food.

Mm-mmm. I had a protein bar earlier.

You know why I come here?

For these bad boys.

They're so good, right?

Can't even taste the tequila, right?

But it's in there. It's definitely there.

Shall we get some water?

Oh, my God.

They're playing my literal favorite song.

Oh, my God. I love this song.

It's a good song.

We have to dance.

-Oh. Uh, we don't. We absolutely don't.

-I think we should just dance.

No. Absolutely not. It's a restaurant.

Not a dancing place.

Okay. You want to stay seated,

you dirty dog?

Sorry everybody. Excuse me.

Tanya, please, I'm begging you.

[singing along incoherently]

Tell it to my heart

I can feel Oh, whoa.

-Oh, no.

-Oh my God.

What the f*ck?

Sit down, or my boyfriend

will kick your f*cking a*s.

-Tanya. I am so sorry.

-Put a leash on her.

To be clear,

no one will be kicking your a*s.

I do apologize, everyone.

Dessert is on me.

[patrons gasp]

Oh, sh*t.

[Larry] And then

we stopped sleeping together.

She, uh

She thought it was her fault, but

honestly

-it was mine.

-Mmm.

And now I masturbate to her.

[sputters]

I jerk off to my ex-wife.

I mean, is that f*cked up or--

And that's my cue. Okay.

Excuse me.

I had a really nice time tonight.

-Good night, Tanya.

-Oh.

Not on the first date, huh?

You are a gentleman.

Well

till next time.

-Good night.

-Good night.

God, you're such a p*ssy.

Mom! I'm home.

Jackie, uh,

I just want to apologize again.

I'm really sorry.

You should call

Stacey.

She might be home thinking about you too.

And masturbating?

Goodbye, Larry.

[warm, quirky music playing]

Sorry.

All right, Frederick, here we are.

Finished last night.

If you could get that

to Mr. Vance when he gets in, please.

That was fast.

You can take more time if you want.

Mr. Vance will be mad

if there are mistakes, so

Um

There are no mistakes.

-All right, Clair?

-Ugh, no.

It's freezing outside,

then it's 1,000 degrees on the train,

so I sweat all the way through

my thermal underwear.

Then that sweat froze on my walk to work.

Now I have this, like,

insane rash behind my knees.

Oh, dear.

What did you get up to last night?

Oh, nothing.

No, you did something. What was it?

Just something personal.

Like what?

I'm sorry. I think

this might be a cultural difference.

Discussing personal things

with a co-worker seems

inappropriate or rude to me.

So when I say, "All right, Clair,"

I'm not really asking if you're all right.

I'm just saying, "Hello."

Oh. Because for me,

if you ask a question, then I answer it,

because that is how a conversation works.

Right.

-Well, for example, yesterday, when you--

-Morning.

-When you told me your IBS was intense

-[sputters]

That's a personal issue

for your personal life. Do you see?

-What do you want me to say?

-Just all right.

I say all right, you say all right,

and we go about our day.

But I'm not all right.

No one's all right, Clair. We just say it.

-Good morning, Ms. Cruz.

-Good morning.

-Good morning, Ms. Cruz.

-Good morning.

-Good morning, Ms. Cruz.

-Good morning, Ms. Cruz.

-Hey, hey. How'd it go last night?

-Nightmare.

-Who told Larry I was single?

-Who doesn't know you're single?

-Fair.

-I'm so sorry. Meaning that he hit on you?

-Then he cried.

-I'm gonna scream.

It makes me so angry

when people cannot separate their

business life from their personal life.

Except in your case,

which is business life and business life.

Hey.

I don't need anybody else

in my life right now.

I'm focused on work.

I hear that, sister.

-Oh my God.

-Okay.

I know I'm not supposed to ask this,

but how are you even walking right now?

You're actually not allowed to ask that.

Sorry, go ahead.

-No. You.

-It's your airline. Okay.

Seriously. Shouldn't you be home?

Or in a hospital giving birth.

I'm gonna go to the hospital

when the baby comes,

then I'll resume work the next day.

You're kidding, right?

We have maternity leave.

I'm worried about you.

-Hey, Marcus.

-Yeah?

-Get this down to legal.

-Ms. Cruz?

-Yeah, right away, Ms. Bloom.

-Thank you.

"Right away, Ms. Bloom"?

So, you all set for the deposition?

Eh.

-Nervous.

-No. Look, this is nothing. It's nothing.

If the biggest airline on the planet

is not suing somebody somewhere,

their dicks get soft.

-Sydney.

-What?

You can't say that. The door is open.

-It's true.

-For f*ck's sake.

It's gonna be fine.

Vance is gonna destroy them.

-He is, isn't he?

-Yes. I'd buy a ticket to see this one.

Peter Vance is going to

eat those assholes for breakfast.

Gunderson. Peter Vance here.

What is this horse sh*t

about moving up the deposition?

[Gunderson] Peter, I'm sorry.

-Huh?

-Oh, I I

-Oh, f*ck you!

-Peter

Okay, listen, as*h*le.

If that's the only time

in your CEO's precious schedule,

-I'll depose his a*s too. Yeah.

-You're not Peter.

Yeah, I f*cking can.

Check your email, dipshit.

Guess what?

[gags]

I can are you there?

[gags]

What's going on?

[passersby exclaiming]

I don't know

if it was beef or chorizo but

-All right, Clair?

-[Clair] No, not at all.

Mr. Vance choked on his breakfast burrito.

Oh, my God.

You can have burritos for breakfast?

-I'm so sorry. Is he okay?

-[Sydney] He has a tube down his throat.

He's using hand signals

to sue the food truck

for a recklessly large sausage chunk.

Is this him, are you Blanchflower?

Yes, Daniel Blanchflower.

Well, the general goes down.

Time to bring in the colonel.

Vance says you're hot sh*t, so you're

on the Falcon Airlines deposition.

-Be in Ms. Cruz's office in five minutes.

-I'll be there.

[all] Ooh

Why are you all looking at me like that?

Have you met Ms. Cruz?

No, Rachael.

I have not yet had the pleasure.

"Pleasure?"

So you enjoy feeling dumb and scared?

She's tough. Don't babble.

But don't say nothing.

Just speak the exact right amount.

And do not compliment her shoes.

It was the worst elevator ride of my life.

She likes the smell of lavender.

Try to smell like lavender.

She hates the sound of breathing.

Don't breathe.

But if you have to breathe,

try to take a quick gasp

through the side of your mouth, like this.

[all gasping raspily]

-Go right in. She's expecting you.

-Thank you.

Good luck.

[clears throat]

[romantic music swells]

Holy sh*t.

You're very, um

impressive.

You

glow, you

Wow.

You're the new lawyer?

Yes. Sorry. I am he, Daniel Blanchflower.

Nice shoes.

f*ck.

Sydney?

[Sydney] Yes?

-This is the guy?

-[Sydney] Yeah. This is

Bl I literally already forgot it.

-Blanchflower.

-Blankplowder.

-Blanchflower.

-That's what I said.

Can we postpone the deposition?

No. It'll look like

we're hiding something.

Ms. Cruz, I can assure you

I am quite capable and happy

to help with whatever

you may need help with.

Shoes or law

Probably more law-based help,

I imagine you need, actually, from me.

[gasp raspily]

[lively music playing]

-[driver] Have a good day, ma'am.

-Thank you.

Good morning. I'm Daniel.

-Vanessa. Nice to meet you.

-Nice to meet you.

Okay. Well, let's begin.

Ms. Cruz, four months ago, on July 25th,

Falcon Airlines had a verbal agreement

with the board

of the Dallas-Fort Worth airport

to acquire 10 gates in their new terminal.

-Are you aware of all this?

-Yes.

But on July 26th, the very next day,

you flew to Dallas

on your personal private jet, Cruz One,

to meet with Charles Johnson, the chairman

of the Dallas-Fort Worth board.

And after your evening together,

Mr. Johnson just changed his mind,

decided to give the gates that he had

already given to Falcon Airlines to you.

-Is that correct?

-Yes.

Would you care to tell us what happened

that evening between you and Mr. Johnson?

-We had dinner.

-Did you go anywhere else after dinner?

Back to your hotel?

-Back to his place?

-[Jackie] No.

[Gunderson] Maybe the ATM?

You are aware that Mr. Johnson,

days after your dinner, bought a boat?

Okay, which is it? Did I bribe him,

or did I sleep with him?

You tell us.

That's what we're here to find out.

I need a moment to confer.

Ms. Cruz, the breaks are at a set time.

-What the f*ck are you doing?

-What would you have me do?

Vance would be fighting every word

coming out of his creepy little mouth.

-Object!

-I won't do that.

-Do it.

-No.

-Do it.

-Ms. Cruz.

-Do it, or I'll fire your a*s.

-Then fire me.

Look, I know I didn't make

a great first impression,

but to be fair, you do glow

and those are amazing shoes.

I have done this before.

Well, you

better f*cking show me something in there.

[Gunderson] And finally, Ms. Cruz,

after your evening

together with Mr. Johnson,

the two of you met for breakfast

the next morning. Is that correct?

It was coffee. We didn't have breakfast.

Fine.

Coffee.

Thank you for everything, Jackie.

I'm done with her.

Are we gonna take a break

before we depose Mr. Butten?

No. I only have a question or two.

It shouldn't take long.

Um, so

for the record

you are William Butten,

CEO of Falcon Airlines.

-I am, but you can call me Bill.

-Wonderful.

So, Bill

you seem to know an awful lot about

the time Ms. Cruz spent with Mr. Johnson.

I guess I do.

You know when they went to dinner.

You know where they went to dinner.

Do you know what they ate?

She had the filet

and he had the Chilean sea bass.

[Daniel] Right.

So, for me,

I think the question's quite simple.

How do you know all this?

Uh

The

information was given to me by a

interesting pers-- an interested party

who happened upon the knowledge of the

facts.

I'm so sorry. I didn't quite get that.

Vanessa, would you mind reading that back?

-That's not You don't have to.

-I do. He asked me to. It's my job. Okay.

"I, uh, the information was given to me

by a, uh, interesting person,

interested party who happened upon

the knowledge of the, uh

facts."

-That's what he said.

-Thank you, Vanessa.

-Mm-hmm.

-I am curious.

Who was the interested party?

Paul. Paul something. I forget.

-Paul Huntingford.

-Yes.

-Mr. Johnson's personal assistant.

-Yes.

Did you pay him or just sleep with him?

We're gonna call it.

I'm sorry to cut this off.

-The breaks are at a set time.

-Yeah, we'll be in touch.

Now.

-Thank you, Vanessa.

-Thank you. Good job, Daniel.

[door closes]

-Heather?

-Yes, Ms. Cruz?

Can you ask Mr. Blanchflower

to come up here, please?

Absolutely.

Yeah, and then

you can go home for the day.

Okay, goodnight.

Thank you.

Ms. Cruz?

Close the door, please.

Have a seat.

Well, this is

my least favorite thing to do

but

I'm sorry.

Are there more words to that sentence?

No.

I hate apologizing,

so please, just accept it.

-I do.

-You did great today.

Well, I had familiarized

myself with the case.

You read all that on the off chance

that your boss would choke on a sausage

chunk the morning of the deposition.

Well, you'd be amazed the amount

of lawyers who choke on sausage chunks.

The numbers are staggering.

Well

It's nice to meet someone

who gives a sh*t.

It's rare.

For most people, work is something

that you have to endure until the weekend.

But for me

this is the best part.

I get that.

So, thank you

for being one of us.

You're welcome.

[romantic music swells]

[music halts]

-Whoa!

-I am so sorry.

What the f*ck, dude?

-I assure you, this is not my choice.

-Get the f*ck out of my office!

Yes, of course. Dear God, I'm so sorry.

I would like to explain.

I think this was caused by a variety

of stimulus, or stimuli Never mind.

Why is it still here?

I don't know, and I wish it would go away,

and I'm leaving right now. I am so sorry.

[door closes]

[quirky music playing]

Ah, f*ck, f*ck, f*ck, f*ck, f*ck, f*ck.

Holy sh*t!

Holy sh*t!

All right, Daniel?

I will be in my office with

the door closed for some time,

potentially several weeks.

Are you okay? What's wrong?

It might make you feel better

if you talk about it.

It's my business, Clair.

My personal business.

Ms. Cruz would like to see you

in her office immediately.

Well, why didn't you start with that?

You hadn't hurt my feelings yet.

-[Daniel] You wanted to see me?

-No.

-Right.

-He was talking to me.

Please come in.

And shut the door, Mr. Blanchflower.

So, with Peter in the hospital,

I'd like you to take over the day-to-day

operations of the legal department.

That is, if you're

up for it.

Of course.

Shouldn't be too

hard.

Okay, thank you. You can Could you

close the door when you leave?

Actually, stay.

Sydney, we can finish this up later.

Can we?

I'd like to have

a few words with Mr. Blanchflower.

Yeah. Okay.

-[Jackie] Great job.

-[Sydney] Thank you.

-Could I help you with the

-Whoa, absolutely not.

-Don't do that.

-Are you kidding me? 1952?

I think maybe turn around is the quickest

human way to move across a room.

-You want the door open or closed?

-Closed.

-Open?

-Closed.

-You know what? I'm gonna close it.

-Thank you.

[door closes]

-Please have a seat.

-Thank you.

So, moving forward,

I'm hoping we can

work together without any further

incidents.

Of course.

And I do apologize again for my--

I'm putting it behind me.

-Let's move on. Okay.

-Please.

I do hope you know I would never

consciously entertain

the thought of anything like that,

even if your company didn't have

a zero-tolerance policy

on interoffice relationships.

Mmm. Well, don't sh*t where you eat.

That's Captain Jack's number one rule.

That's my dad.

Oh, I'm well aware

of the famous Captain Jack Cruz.

w*r hero.

Entrepreneur.

-Hell of a storyteller.

-That's him.

And still on the board.

Is that honorary?

No.

He's still in there every board meeting.

If not, they would've replaced me by now

with some prep school Ivy Leaguer.

But aren't you doing incredibly well?

Yes, we are.

But, I think they'll always

just see me as Daddy's little girl.

That sounds

not frustrating.

Well, if I don't see you again,

have a nice weekend.

-Uh, no.

-Oh.

Bye.

-See you Monday.

-See you Monday.

-Can't wait.

-Me too.

-I mean

-For work.

For work.

-Cheerio.

-Yes, uh, cheerio.

Thank you.

[menacing Western music playing]

You okay?

-Quick question.

-Yeah.

Is Ms. Bloom still staring me down,

and rubbing her belly

like a Bond villain strokes a cat?

Yes.

It's not good news.

Okay.

-Good luck, man.

-Thank you.

[music trails off]

[commentator] Slowed down and then

he's brought back to the floor

and skipped past Kovai.

Did that really nicely.

Maddison to Porro,

continuing to pick out passes.

That's really good!

[Jackie] Go home. It's Saturday.

[Sydney] If you are here, I'm here.

Okay. Just to be clear,

you are going to take a week off

when the baby comes, right?

If I can lay in a bed,

I can sit at a desk. Work is my priority.

Well, lots of people say that

before they have kids.

I'm not going to be one of those people!

I'm so sorry for shouting, Jackie.

I was artificially inseminated to avoid

the distractions of a relationship.

So the only people in my house are

going to be me and my army of nannies.

Oh God, and the, um

baby.

Please feel free to reconsider on the day.

Hey, before you go, Falcon Airlines

f*cking God Christ!

Are we still waiting to hear

if this f*cking judge thinks

this bullshit lawsuit has merit?

Yeah, Daniel says that it's ridiculously

frivolous and we should be fine.

Okay.

[chuckling] Oh, um

You know, the

the other night

after the deposition

Uh-huh.

What?

What?

-Nothing.

-What's happening right now? Jackie?

-It's nothing. Go home.

-Woman Jackie!

You okay alone in here with her?

She's my sister.

And she's handcuffed to the table.

[guard] Be careful.

[mockingly] "She's my sister.

She's handcuffed to the table."

Where are you from?

Buckingham Palace, you prick.

I have to talk like this, Lizzy.

I can't go into court and say,

"Oi, objection, f*ck."

So

What's going on with the birds?

Absolutely nothing

is going on with the birds.

Well, I worry about you.

It's been so long since you got laid.

Your ba*ls must be like watermelons.

That isn't how ba*ls work, Lizzy.

Worry about yourself.

I've never had more sex in my life.

I swear it's the accent.

The birds f*cking love it.

Some days, I don't even wear pants.

-Elizabeth.

-Daniel

go back home.

I don't need

my little brother to babysit me.

You're never gonna find anyone here.

These Americans aren't your type.

What's that?

Nothing.

It was f*cking something.

Nothing.

It doesn't matter. There is someone

I like, but we can't be together.

Too big? Big ol' unit.

No, Lizzy.

Hairy belly?

Lizzy.

-Is it me, you sick f*ck? I'm your sister.

-Jesus Christ, Lizzy. It's my boss.

-Is she fit?

-It isn't actually like that. She's

smart.

She's dynamic.

She's like

She's incredible.

-Is she fit?

-We shook hands and I got a b*ner.

It was so bad.

f*cking hell.

Well, ask her out, then.

I can't.

You don't sh*t where you eat.

I do. I sh*t where I eat.

Where I sleep,

where I read books, where I wank.

I can't.

Really, I can't.

I know ethics isn't your thing, Lizzy,

but I'd be disbarred. I'd

I'd lose my visa.

I'm not going home without you.

You f*cking idiot.

You're the f*cking idiot, you prick.

[machinery whirring]

[horn beeping]

Watch it!

There he is.

Welcome back, Peter.

Did you hurt your legs?

No. Rachael, I left the hospital

before they released me.

Meaning if I fell,

I would be legally obliged to sue

the airline and that's not happening.

Oh, sh*t.

[reverse alert beeping]

[Daniel] Welcome back, Peter. How are you?

Ah, fantastic. I bankrupted the b*stards

and then I took their food truck

as an extra f*ck you

for almost k*lling me.

-It was a good day.

-Lovely stuff.

Would you like

an update on Falcon Airlines?

No need. I'm going to

get that bullshit thrown out

with a summary judgment so big

the judge is going to choke on it.

[chuckles weakly]

-If I may, I'm not too sure that's the--

-Whoa, whoa, whoa, little puppy.

I'll take it from here.

Big dog is back.

[barks, snarls]

-That's very good All right.

-[continues barking]

It doesn't stop. Okay. Fine.

I love it!

What the f*ck is this?

This is Vance's insane 200-page document

urging the judge to throw out the lawsuit.

What did he do? Did he track down

every guy I dated in the past ten years?

I guess he was hoping

to establish a pattern of behavior

in which you don't have sex,

which you really don't.

Uh, you were artificially inseminated.

I f*ck.

Okay.

Jackie, the last guy to swear under oath

that you had sex was four years ago?

That can't be true.

-I've been busy.

-My poor, sweet little baby.

-You wanted to see me?

-No.

-He's talking to me.

-Okay.

-Have you read this?

-Twice.

-Why twice?

-It's my job.

As mortifying as this is

do you think it will work?

-This is a conversation for Mr. Vance.

-No, you work for me, okay? Not Peter.

Tell me what you think. Tell me the truth.

This was a huge mistake.

We had a great argument that

didn't hinge on the fact that you're a

A sexless freak.

-Okay.

-I was going to say odd prude.

-Don't love that.

-An Amish widow.

-Hate that even more.

-A choosy queen.

Thank you.

I'm sorry.

What?

-You two f*cking?

-No!

Jackie, you're in the middle of a lawsuit

that hinges on whether or not

you slept with a business associate.

I am very well aware of that.

If you f*ck an employee,

you will lose your airline over that sh*t.

We are not sleeping together.

The board is looking for any excuse

to throw you out.

Don't give them the excuse.

Sydney! I have sworn affidavits

that say I'm not f*cking anybody!

Okay, good. Plus,

you are way out of this guy's league.

It would be like Helen of Troy

having sex with Mr. Bean.

Thank you?

What do you want to do about Vance?

[Vance] Yeah, I don't give a f*ck.

Bring it. Yeah, see you there.

We're, uh, going to trial.

-[scoffs] My God.

-Whoa!

From now on, Daniel will be

running point on Falcon Airlines.

No, no, no, no, no.

No, no, you can't do that.

-Peter?

-You can't demote me!

I've put too much work, too many

g*dd*mn marriages into this airline.

Let's just take a breath.

I will handle this case for you.

I will win this case for you, or I quit.

[phone alert chimes]

Oh God.

[mumbling]

Good morning, Daniel Blanchflower.

Good morning, Daniel.

It's me, Jacqueline Cruz.

Ms. Cruz, of course, your name came up.

Thank God nobody stole your phone.

[cackles]

What can I do for you?

Emergency board meeting about Peter Vance

at 8:00 a.m. I need you there.

-Absolutely, I'll be there.

-Great. Thank you.

Okay.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye-bye.

[warm, lively music playing]

[board member]

This whole thing is ridiculous.

Peter Vance is an old friend.

More importantly, a damn good lawyer.

[Jackie] And he messed up.

I'm sure you all read his document,

the details of which were wildly false.

So you just replaced Peter Vance

with some new guy?

Daniel Blanchflower, sir.

Young man, when I'm talking to you,

you'll be the first to know it.

Eye contact would be a dead giveaway.

Mr. Blanchflower,

despite his recent arrival,

is the best person for the job,

and it's my call. I'm CEO.

At our pleasure, Ms. Cruz.

Your rash, emotional decision

has given us further doubt

you're the best man for the job.

[man] Hot damn.

Got here just in time for the fireworks.

Captain Jack.

Hola, Francisco.

-Ladies and gentlemen, good morning.

-[board] Good morning.

[Jack] Gordita, how are you doing?

Dad.

Is Gordita like little cutie?

-Little fatty.

-Jesus.

[Jack] Why the hell

did you replace Peter Vance

with a guy

who's still unpacking his office?

That about catch me up?

Mm-hmm.

The board is not happy with my decision.

Hmm. We work for them, honey,

not the other way around.

Jack, we do not like this decision,

and hate not being consulted.

I get it.

Gordita, you did

what you thought was right,

but now it's time

for cooler heads to prevail.

Now, the kid can second chair this

if that's what you want,

but Peter's our guy.

This is too important.

I know how important

Peter is to this company.

It was never my intention for him to quit.

Then call him up and apologize.

-Boom. Job done.

-[Francisco] Jack.

I'm sorry we keep coming back to this,

but we feel it's time

to bring in an experienced CEO.

It's time to make a change.

It is absolutely not the time.

Daniel Blanchflower.

I tried to introduce myself earlier,

but you were rude.

Peter Vance is a good man

who made a terrible mistake.

And as for me,

frankly, I'm overqualified to be here.

I'm like Jude Bellingham

playing right back

for your Sunday League pub team.

Football. Soccer.

Pub team?

Jude Bellingham

Great midfielder.

Thank you.

Ms. Cruz made the right decision,

just like all the decisions

she has made that have made you all

millions and millions of pounds.

sh*t. Dollars. I'm genuinely very good.

If I were you,

I would keep trusting her decisions

until she surprises us all

by making a bad one.

Thank you.

May I say, I do not like this man,

God, really at all.

-Thank you, Sydney.

-But I do agree with what he just said.

Ms. Cruz, she knows what she's doing.

And I know better than

to disagree with a pregnant woman.

So, for now, we stick

with Gordita and the Brit. Yes?

Yes.

[charming folk-pop music playing]

-Okay, yeah, I think

-Okay.

I want you

We need to talk about the direct operating

costs of adding this gate at Dallas.

There's an additional large fleet,

so we're going to need to

factor in pilots, flight attendants,

maintenance contracts for the aircrafts,

and, of course, insurance for the fleet.

You were saying?

Talk with my chambermaid

She knows that I'm not afraid

-And

-You guys!

She is good to me

And there's nothing she doesn't see

-Morning.

-Morning.

She knows who I'd like to be

But it doesn't matter

I want you, I want you

Excuse me.

-Morning.

-Morning.

-Good morning.

-Good morning.

I want you

[song trails off]

Oh, thanks, guys. You shouldn't have.

Happy birthday, Henry.

To the best guy ever.

-You're the man, Henry.

-Yeah!

[Daniel] Happy birthday, Henry.

You're an absolute c**t.

Your turn.

It was a compliment.

Not a compliment.

You can't say that in this office.

You can't say that word.

George, I understand that now, but it is

important to me that you understand

where I'm from, c**t is not a bad word.

Baba ghanoush!

-We use c**t for everything.

-Yeah, okay.

-All the time.

-Uh-huh.

If you got a parking ticket,

you might be like, you f*cking c**t.

Don't need examples.

But if you saw an old friend,

you'd be like, c**t!

Because you like them.

If your team scored a goal,

you'd be like, get in, you c**ts!

God!

Or if a mouse ran across your kitchen

tabletop, you'd be like, you cheeky c**t.

Bring it down.

It's how we process

the five stages of grief.

[disbelieving] c**t!

[pleadingly] c**t!

[angrily] c**t!

[morosely] c**t!

[calmly] c**t.

Honestly, George,

I'm not a c**t.

Stop!

Stop!

Please, I want to get on my hands

and knees and beg you

to not say that word

ever again in this office.

I'm gonna have to write you up for this

because that was a lot coming at me.

-I understand.

-Yeah. Yeah.

Thank you, George. You're a good

man.

God.

-While I'm here

-Oh, good.

Our zero-tolerance dating policy.

-Yeah.

-Don't you think it's a little

unrealistic?

It seems very difficult to stop people

from being attracted to each other.

And if the relationship were consensual

and if the behavior remained professional

Yeah.

shouldn't that be okay?

No.

-Daniel.

-Ms. Cruz.

Good day to you.

And a good day to you too, sir.

Hey, George. Got a minute?

Ms. Cruz. Yes, of course. Hello.

So, this, um

zero-tolerance dating policy.

Yeah.

Don't you think it's a bit

unrealistic?

Hmm?

[Sydney] Good news, bad news.

Bad news is you're

you're being deposed again.

The good news is it's a different lawsuit.

A passenger that we removed

from a flight is suing you

and this judge is insisting that you

go to them and carve out two days.

Absolutely not.

It is in the Dominican Republic

where it's currently 86 degrees.

When do I leave?

[all laughing]

-I'll take Cruz One.

-[Sydney] Good.

Two days in paradise.

Nobody deserves it more.

Who do you want from legal?

Probably you should take Rachael.

-Rachael would be good.

-She's the best.

-Rachael is the best. I love her.

-She really is.

Daniel?

Sorry.

Are Are you asking me

if you should take me?

Or are you asking me

if you should take Rachael?

-I don't have a preference.

-Nor should you.

-I mean, you'd be great.

-He would be great.

Oh my God. Get it all done.

-Rachael is also great.

-Hard agree.

-Another smart decision.

-She'd be so fun to travel with.

But Daniel is the deposition king, right?

-Don't know about that.

-King?

-He rules.

-He wins.

He is.

Sure. For sure. Sure.

I just wonder,

with Daniel's new responsibilities,

maybe this assignment

is beneath his talents.

[Jackie] Hmm.

No, that's a good point.

That might be embarrassing.

-Would that be embarrassing?

-He's doing so much already.

-I know, but that

-Like a vacation.

Are we overthinking this?

You're totally right.

As you say that,

I realize we are overthinking it.

I can't believe

we're still talking about it.

-I don't mind either way.

-I'll take Daniel.

I'd be delighted to go.

Happy to go. I would be

okay to go.

And I'm okay for you to come.

-Okay.

-Okay.

-What a nightmare.

-Next item.

Daniel and Jackie will go

to the Dominican Republic. Moving on.

Um

Excuse me, sir.

What's up, brother?

Cruz One?

Cruz One

The plane that started it all.

[Daniel] Oh, God. It's a baby plane.

-Thank you.

-Yeah.

[warm, confident music playing]

Welcome aboard.

You're flying the plane?

Surely you knew.

I'm not just the CEO of Air Cruz.

I'm also a pilot.

I will admit, I did think that was

just a public relations thing

and you didn't actually fly planes.

But seriously

you do fly planes?

It's been a while.

But I do use a simulator all the time.

Although to be honest, I think that they

might put it on easy because I'm the boss.

[chuckles weakly]

-[alarm blares]

-f*ck! Jesus.

Whoops! Sorry.

My bad.

[Jackie] Here we go.

[adventurous, spirited music playing]

Wee! [giggling]

We're flying!

[Daniel] Oh sh*t!

[Jackie] Hello.

This is your captain speaking.

Flight time is four hours.

A little bit longer

if we run into any grumpy weather.

You can stay back there

all by yourself for the whole flight

or you can join me up here.

No, I I don't want to be a distraction.

You keep focusing on

what it is you're doing, please.

I can't hear a word you're saying.

You're going to have to come

put on one of these if you want to talk.

Hi.

Hi.

Is that you and Captain Jack?

[Jackie] Yeah, my first solo flight.

Solo?

I was 13 years old.

What?

I learned how to fly

sitting right up here on his lap.

Sometimes I think we spent

more time together up here

than we ever did on the ground.

And then we realized that if we just had

some rich dude ride in the back,

we could pay for gas and repairs.

Wow.

And from that, a whole airline.

Amazing.

[Jackie] So, how'd you get into the law?

[Daniel] Well, I wanted to be despised

by the entire planet,

-and traffic warden didn't pay enough.

-[Jackie laughs]

[thunder breaks]

[alarm beeping]

Did your simulator do this?

Daniel, I am an honest-to-God pilot.

I've flown through much worse than this.

I've been through blizzards

and lightning storms and hurricanes.

You name it.

Jesus, this is

Hey, look at me.

I got you.

I will not let you fall out of the sky.

That last bit kind of made it sound worse.

[serene, uplifting music playing]

Thank you, Ms. Cruz.

Call me Jackie.

Jackie.

[lively, vibrant music playing]

Ms. Cruz, as you know,

my client was judged harshly,

-and without trial

-Sorry.

by the court of social media

in a post featuring a

-So sorry.

-Sorry.

Please.

featuring a video

that completely misrepresented

why my client urinated

on the c*ck door.

Dinner?

What'd you say?

Oh. Doesn't matter.

No, I didn't hear what you said.

I wasn't reacting to what you said.

It's nothing. Never mind. Sorry.

-Want to have dinner?

-Yes.

-Buenas.

-Buenas.

Can I get you two something to drink?

Pia colada?

[Jackie] Um

No, thanks. No.

But I will have the mahi-mahi,

and instead of vegetables I'll have fries.

Uh, and please can I have the steak,

but instead of the fries

I'll have the vegetables. Gracias.

-We can just switch.

-Yeah.

Yeah.

The perfect couple.

-No, this is just a work dinner.

-No. Please.

-It's a work dinner.

-Ah.

But you know what? Just one drink.

-One drink.

-Yeah.

-Dos pia colada.

-Okay.

Pia colada.

-I like her.

-That's fun.

So

work?

Dim all the lights, sweet darling

'Cause tonight it's all the way

Turn up the old Victrola

Yes?

Gracias. No.

Yes.

No.

I am literally your boss.

Okay, go.

Yes! First time!

That was impressive.

I'm undefeated.

Oh, I used to love this song.

That is a f*cking banger.

Let's dance.

Come on.

Come on.

We've found the perfect love

And I'm like a cup, come fill me up

Dim all the lights, sweet darlin'

'Cause the night is on the way

Oh, baby

Turn up the old Victrola

Gonna dance the night away

Come on! Don't tell me you're one of

those people who never dance.

I am trying my best to do the right thing.

But we're just dancing!

Dim all the lights, sweet darlin'

Gonna dance the night away

[audience claps, cheers]

[band plays smooth, soulful melody]

f*ck.

Okay.

I wanna hold the hand inside you

I wanna take a breath that's true

I look to you and I see nothing

I look to you to see the truth

Fade into you

Strange you never knew

I really love working with you.

And I would hate to f*ck that up.

Fade into you

I feel the same way.

I think it's strange you never knew

As your attorney, I do feel

the need to remind you that

due to your company's policy

it is my recommendation

-Shut up.

-Sustained.

[Jackie yelps, laughs]

[Jackie] Well

that was

surprising.

I mean,

you're normally so calm and gentle.

I don't honestly know what happened.

I normally just lie very still

and apologize the whole time.

Yeah, right. Well

this new thing is working for you.

-Can I say something?

-Yeah.

That was exactly

what I imagined it would be like.

Not that I've thought about it

every second of every day at work

-No, of course not. Me either.

-[knock at door]

-[waiter] Room service!

-It's breakfast.

-[knocking at door]

-[waiter] Anyone in there?

[Jackie] Coming!

Coming, coming, coming. Oh, sh*t!

-Hi.

-Hi.

You'll have to excuse my lazy husband.

-He's just getting out of bed.

-[waiter] No judgments.

I've walked in on everything.

Orgies, suicides, pornos, births,

c*ck, circumcisions, you name it.

Whoo!

Coffee, my angel?

Yes. You know how I like it.

[waiter] Oh, yeah.

I gave you extra bacon strips.

They say it causes cancer,

but you only live once.

-Thank you.

-Oh yeah, sure.

Let me get that.

Oh, my goodness. I can retire. Thank you.

Thank you. Cheers.

-Thank you.

-You all right?

You two really have something special.

-I mean it.

-[Jackie] Thank you.

-Yeah. Okay. Good.

-That means a lot.

-This never happened.

-Yeah.

-Right? I mean

-Right.

-I can't. And you can't, so, you know, we

-No.

[Daniel] Mm-hmm.

Can't do it.

Correct.

And

this can never happen again.

Absolutely not.

[cheeky, playful music building]

[Daniel panting]

[Jackie gasping]

[Clair] I called my landlord,

but they said they can't deal with

the smell until they figure out--

Good afternoon, Ms. Cruz.

[inhales raspily]

[Jackie] Afternoon, Clair.

Before I sign the contract, I wanted you

to approve it from a legal standpoint.

Of course. My pleasure.

Uh

Yes, I think that works.

Outstanding.

You can breathe now, Clair.

Thank you.

What is going on?

Why are you in the legal department?

And you were smiling. Why were

you smiling in the legal department?

Sydney, you have way too much going on

to worry about every step I take at

I'm sorry. Let's take the elevator.

I am perfectly capable

of going up a flight of stairs.

Okay.

Will you please go home?

[wheezily] You have been acting strangely

ever since the Dominican Republic.

[gasping] I am so on to you.

[Jackie] Mmm!

[humming happily]

What's that?

What?

-This.

-Oh! This

That's my delicious happy food dance.

Oh, right.

Doesn't everybody dance when their food

is delicious and they're happy?

Well, they should.

I am starting to see

why you like eating in the cold.

Yeah. I like to keep

an eye on my competition.

[Daniel] Mm-hmm.

I grew up looking at that city thinking,

"One day, I'll be good enough

to be one of them."

f*ck them.

Manhattan couldn't handle you.

Plus, I like it here.

New Jersey?

It's the most beautiful place on Earth.

[sweet, tender music playing]

-Thank you. Where's the restroom?

-First door on the right.

Okay. Just be a second.

[Jackie] Left!

I meant I meant left!

[Daniel] Holy sh*t.

Okay. Don't

Just forget about that. It's nothing.

-Excuse me. If you wouldn't mind.

-It's okay.

I

What the actual f*ck?

[laughs nervously] It's a joke.

It's all a joke. It's a

I like British stuff.

Because my father

was stationed there when I was a kid

and I go there all the time, and each time

I just pick up

a little something from the airport.

And after a while, I just had all this

British stuff laying around

and Sydney was like,

"You should have a room of British stuff."

So I made one as a joke, and

You cannot sit there. I'm sorry.

-That's just for royalty.

-My apologies.

And then every, you know,

birthday and Christmas,

Sydney would buy me more British stuff

only because it was

so funny to have a British room

as a joke.

[Daniel] So

you have a thing for British guys?

I'm your kink?

Absolutely not.

It's a fun thing. It's like

It's It's nothing!

It's not a thing.

It's no thing.

It's the opposite of a thing.

[Daniel] Hmm.

-["I Love How You Love Me" playing]

-I love how your eyes close

Whenever you kiss me

[dreamy '60s pop music continuing]

[footsteps approaching]

And when I'm away from you

I love how you miss me

[Jackie whimpering] Uh

It's not a joke, is it?

It's okay.

I have a fetish

for powerful women with perfect bums.

So you know how this works, right?

Go on.

You have to stand at attention,

and you cannot move

no matter what I do.

[Daniel stifles moan]

f*ck.

-Shh!

-Mm-hmm.

You have to protect the Queen.

[strangled] Mm-hmm.

[Daniel stifling moans]

[unzipping]

Keep the hat on.

As you wish, ma'am.

[Jackie] Do you believe in reincarnation?

Holy sh*t.

[Daniel] I must have done something

pretty incredible in my last life

to end up here with you.

Like I must have been

Gandhi or something.

I do worry that means I have to come back

as a worm in my next life

just to balance things out.

What about you?

I want to come back as a cat.

You know, just like laying around all day

trying to find the sunny spot.

Being all cold and mean to my owners

when they're feeling needy.

[Daniel] You'd make a great cat.

Yes, absolutely.

[Jackie] You'd make a very sexy worm.

[Daniel] Thank you.

f*ck!

Do you believe in magic?

Like Gandalf?

No, like magic. Like

fate, destiny, that kind of thing.

Honestly, since I first walked into

your office I believe in everything.

Two please.

[Daniel] What about you?

[Jackie] I believe you're trying to make

your way back into this bed one day.

[Daniel] Is it working?

[Jackie] Like magic.

Do you believe in true love?

Not until very recently.

So I guess we're doing this.

Absolutely.

[Jackie] Okay, but no fooling around

at the office.

[Daniel] Never at the office.

I mean it. If we got caught,

it could destroy everything I've built.

[Daniel] Your life's work.

And it would be so tacky.

Oh, so very tacky.

Good day, Jackie. Uh, Ms. Cruz.

Jackie's fine. Everybody calls me Jackie.

Bye, guys.

-Bye, Jackie.

-Bye-bye, Jackie.

-Bye, Jackie.

-Bye, Jackie.

I've never called her Jackie before.

She is not a Jackie.

[vibrant, upbeat music playing]

[Daniel] It's gonna be

difficult to top this

when it's my turn to take you for dinner.

Well, you fly millionaires around for

decades and you learn a few nice spots.

My God, I have so much sand in my butt.

If you turn me over you could tell time.

You're very strange.

Oh, thank you.

No, I mean

at work they're terrified of you.

They tell ghost stories about you.

Why don't you let them see you?

The real you. Sandy bum and all.

I don't know. I

I did once.

And I married him.

And then he preferred

to see his secretary.

And the whole office knew and that sucked.

So I just

Guess I went into my shell

and I stayed there.

What about you?

Never married?

No.

Why has a catch like you

never settled down?

Nothing dramatic.

The usual.

So, where to now?

We have the whole weekend.

We can go to Puerto Rico, Miami.

If you can keep your mouth shut,

I can fly us in and out of Cuba.

sh*t. I can't.

I have something tomorrow morning.

What?

Just, um, personal stuff.

Oh.

I can come over tomorrow afternoon.

We can go anywhere in the world. I just

have to be back tonight.

Right.

Everything okay?

Yeah.

Just something I have to do.

Something personal.

Right.

I won't ask any more about it then.

I appreciate that.

[uneasy music drifting off]

[inquisitive music playing]

Thank you.

You shagged her, didn't you?

We've been at it non-stop

and my d*ck hurts.

Yes!

My man.

[sly, inquisitive music playing]

[door alarm buzzing]

Hello?

Can I help you?

Sure can.

How are you today?

Stan?

You know my name?

Of course.

Yeah. Daniel told me to ask for Stan.

You know Daniel.

I know Daniel.

Yeah. Well, I'm here to do

exactly what Daniel is here to do.

You're here to see his sister?

His sister?

Yes!

You're not on the list. You gotta be

on the list to see a prisoner.

Right. No problem.

I'll get going. Thank you so much.

Can you open the door? Thank you.

Nah. Don't sweat it.

If you know Daniel, I'm sure it's okay.

I don't want to get anybody in trouble.

Just press the button.

We're good. Just sign right here.

Okay.

Hi.

Jackie Cruz.

-Yeah, how did you know--

-She just know things.

My brother didn't tell you

where he was sneaking off to,

so you followed him.

You're f*cking mental.

I love it. Take a seat.

Joe, coffee for two?

No, Lizzy.

I tell you what to do.

When I got arrested,

he dropped everything.

Gave up his huge job. Moved out here.

I'd be on death row if it wasn't for him.

Death row?

Wow, um

I chopped a guy's head off with a machete.

-Oh! Jesus.

-Yeah.

f*cking hell.

Why?

I didn't like the c**t.

Sorry.

c**t's not a bad word where I'm from.

No, Daniel keeps telling me.

Well, the point is,

that's how good a lawyer my brother is.

Instead of getting the electric chair,

I'm up here with these posh birds

absolutely cleaning up.

That's so That's nice.

-He's a good boy.

-Yeah.

You treat him right, you get me?

Yes. Uh

Of course. Cross my heart and hope to die

I don't want to die.

Well, cheers to that.

Cheers.

Whoa! God.

What the hell are you doing?

You

You were being so weird and so vague

that I just let my imagination run wild.

So you followed me?

-I'm sorry.

-That's insane.

-Lizzy understood?

-Lizzy's insane.

You encouraged me

greatly encouraged me

to be more open and vulnerable.

How can you do that

when you're hiding things from me?

There is a vast difference

between hiding things and being private.

I am a private person.

Hey.

I'm private.

But you and I stopped being private

the minute that you came in my hair.

-That was a mistake and I apologized.

-You lied to me.

Repeatedly.

God, I hate being lied to.

Like when someone

doesn't have the ba*ls to tell you

they've fallen in love with someone else.

They lie, tell you everything's fine.

And years later you realize that

when you surprised him on that work trip

that the reason that you didn't f*ck

is not because he was sick,

it was because there was a woman under

the bed or in the closet or the bathroom.

I don't know where she was,

but she was there

when I knocked on the door wearing

nothing but knee-high boots and a raincoat

like an absolute f*cking jackass.

Jesus.

-Always tell me the truth.

-I didn't lie to you.

You lied by omission.

Okay? You were being shady.

You spied on me.

That is the shadiest sh*t.

Okay. You know what? I gotta go.

Jackie, come on.

Jackie.

[Jackie] We're doing great.

Things couldn't be better.

And I'm truly excited

about our future together.

A profitable future

that may sound like a dream

but I assure you

is much closer to being a reality.

Thank you.

Courtney Armour, Wall Street Journal.

Ms. Cruz, a lot of shareholders

have valid concerns

about how the pending lawsuit

from Falcon Airlines

will affect this profitable future.

Well, our chief legal officer

can best comment on that.

Oh.

Yes. Uh, absolutely, I can.

This lawsuit is beyond frivolous,

and frankly offensive,

and I have zero doubt we will prevail.

Falcon Airlines seems to think that

Ms. Cruz obtained the gates in Dallas

through an improper relationship.

See, that's ridiculous.

I understand the difference between

my professional life and my personal life,

and I would never cross that line.

I would never sleep with a colleague.

I would never sleep with an employee

and I would never sleep with my lawyer.

[confused murmuring]

Exactly.

She is a woman of integrity.

What the f*ck just happened?

I don't know.

I think I blacked out.

-So, was that insane?

-Yes. Seemed pretty insane.

Jesus Christ, we are f*cked.

We are f*cking f*cked.

Hi! What's up?

-Are you good?

-Super good.

You guys, that was amazing.

-Thank you.

-It was nothing.

-Incredible.

-Extraordinary. You guys k*lled it.

We're gonna just go over

this one little legal thing.

Sure, yeah.

But yeah.

Well, that's it.

-That's it.

-What's it?

I

We can't be together.

We couldn't be together before, but now?

If somebody found out now?

Right. Of course, you're right.

Besides, this attraction is probably

just pheromones. You know, like

the excitement of like sneaking around.

That stuff wears off.

We're not worth your company.

Right?

Right.

You don't tell me sh*t.

I don't know anything about you,

who you are, what you want.

What am I supposed to want?

Such an American thing to ask.

I don't want. I

survive.

I carry on.

I want to get my sister back home.

And I want to try to get her help.

And I want to do a good job at work.

What else am I supposed to want?

Nothing.

Sounds like you're all set.

So we agree.

This is

We're done.

Moving forward, I hope we can continue

to work together without any

You'll have no issues with me.

Like we never happened.

[gentle, melancholy music playing]

They said it would take a couple weeks.

I told them to get it done in one.

Okay, let's get this over with.

Not the sexiest topic,

but brand positioning and marketing.

Thank you for joining us,

Mr. Blanchflower.

So sorry.

Falcon Airlines filed an injunction

to freeze the gates in Dallas

until after the trial, but--

We're up in 31 days.

We've sold tickets, hired staff.

I just bought 40 planes.

This will bankrupt us.

You have to stop it immediately.

I already did.

I filed an opposition

and the judge denied the motion.

-That's why I was

-Oh God.

ooh, one minute late.

Well done, Mr. Blanchflower.

Just doing my job, Ms. Cruz.

Thank you, Clair.

Any plans for tonight?

It's okay.

I did ask.

Going to dinner with my mom

and her new boyfriend, Kenny.

She was really worried

I wouldn't like him, but he's nice.

I think he's good for her.

I'm glad to hear it.

I love being in each other's lives.

Mm-hm.

Good night, Clair.

-[Daniel yelps]

-When did you and Jackie stop f*cking?

Excuse me?

Anyone can hide being in love,

but nobody can hide being in a fight.

"Well done, Mr. Blanchflower."

"Oh, well, just doing my job, Ms. Cruz."

I am struggling to follow this, Sydney.

Do you have any idea how hard

it's been for Jackie to run this company?

-How much she's sacrificed?

-Of course.

You know nothing.

Jackie made all of this happen because

nobody works harder than her, except

God, what is that one girl's name?

Oh yeah, me.

And you are not going to be the reason

that all of that hard work and dedication

[gasps]

sh*t.

-My water broke.

-Oh.

Hold on, let me call the number.

sh*t, what's the number

for emergency here?

Get up, get down.

What the f*ck are you doing?

It's a joke in your town.

What is the joke?

911!

911, yes. 911 is a joke in your Yes!

There is a lady in labor,

Air Cruz headquarters.

-Sydney, please take a seat. God.

-No, it's happening now.

It's happening now?

It's happening now!

Can you see how what's happening?

Wow. Okay, there is a huge bulge.

I fear we need to remove your underpants.

-Take them off!

-I Okay, I will, but I won't look.

Excuse me, sorry. I have it For the bin?

Who the f*ck cares?

Right, sit on this. And

I think I have to look now.

Do I have your consent to look?

-Stop being so f*cking British.

-Okay then!

I'm going to be looking.

Are you ready? I am looking now.

Oh dear!

The head is there, I'm looking at a head.

Way more hair than I was expecting.

On the baby.

Sydney, I think it's just one push.

Come look at this head.

There's a whole head. Look.

Oh my God, it's so hairy. The baby.

You know,

it looks like it's just a big push.

-Just one push.

-One big push.

-We're here with you.

-Yes.

-It's okay.

-You can do this, Sydney.

Ready? Oh God.

Are you two in love with each other?

What? Sydney!

Sydney, our relationship

is completely professional.

Something happened

in the Dominican Republic!

Nothing happened! Okay?

Sydney, please push!

I will not push until you confess!

Okay, Sydney, I love you and I support you

but right now

you need to shut the f*ck up and push!

-You need to push, Sydney!

-Not until you admit it!

All right! We had sex! It happened!

We f*cked our brains out, all right?

I knew it!

I knew it!

Oh my God.

You did it, sweetie! Oh my God,

it's a girl. You did it, Sydney.

It's a It's a

It's a girl!

[Daniel] Yes, I suppose it is.

A beautiful baby girl.

Oh my God.

Look, Syd.

[joyous music playing]

You can stop looking now.

Absolutely, yes. I'd love to, actually.

Thank you very much.

[music trails off]

Hang on, so Sydney just waltzed in

on you and Daniel and gave birth?

Oh, no, Daniel was in there alone,

and then I came in there after,

separately.

I swear, I have never seen a

Oh God.

Oh.

-Good morning.

-Sydney!

-Yeah?

-No.

Well, come on, women all over

the world go right back to work

the day after they give birth.

-Yes, but they shouldn't.

-No, I'm fine.

Oh my God. Can't I force you to go home?

[Sydney] You can't, actually.

I could sue you. It's a legal matter.

You know who we should ask?

Daniel. "Daniel! Daniel! Oh, Daniel!"

I'll take her to my office.

She needs to rest.

-Congratulations.

-Well done.

Girl mom.

[cheeky music playing]

-You wanted to see me?

-No.

-Oh! What are you doing here?

-You thought this was a booty call?

What? No, we broke up.

You gave birth yesterday.

Yeah. My God.

Okay. We just did a whole thing. Okay?

She's staying.

I do need to talk to both of you, though.

Professionally.

-Of course.

-Yeah, yeah, yeah.

William Butten, from Falcon Airlines,

has asked to meet with me.

-Hm.

-A dinner.

Any ideas why?

I'll go.

I think he's throwing in the towel.

People hate bullies and maybe

this whole lawsuit is

making Falcon Airlines look like

Regina George on Pink Day.

From Mean Girls.

The movie Mean Girls.

The film with what's her name?

That's not Don't look at that.

-Would you please go home?

-No.

I just need to pump.

Daniel, what do you think?

-Go home to your child.

-I'm not going to.

What about Falcon Airlines?

I agree with Sydney. I expect

he wants to withdraw the lawsuit

whilst also making an offer

to buy the airline.

I mean, that is what they do.

[Daniel] You should prepare yourself.

It will be a good offer.

You could live the rest of your life

doing whatever you want,

wherever you want, with

whoever you want.

[Sydney snoring softly]

[Jackie] Okay, that's it.

I'm taking her home. Let's go.

[Daniel] Sydney. Okay.

-[Jackie] Baby needs you.

-[Sydney] Everything's fine.

[elegant jazz music playing in background]

[Butten]

Thank you for joining me, Ms. Cruz.

It's my pleasure, Bill.

What's up?

Yes. Let's get right to it.

I want you to release those gates back

to DFW, who will then give them to me.

Never going to happen, Bill.

This silly lawsuit is not going to work.

Yes, Charles Johnson and I had dinner

and coffee the next morning.

All I did was tell him

I'd get more flights

in and out of his airport,

more people

in and out of his bars and restaurants.

I didn't bribe him.

I didn't sleep with him.

All I did was tell him the truth.

We're the better airline.

You're right about the lawsuit.

It won't work. I knew that.

That's why I had a backup plan.

[laughing]

You recognize my private investigator?

Julie Schatz.

She's been following you

to get something I could use against you.

And boy, oh boy, did she.

I'm sorry,

but it's the only thing I'm good at.

Believe me, if I could tap dance,

we wouldn't be here right now.

But you two really look good together.

That was not a lie.

Good old Julie Schatz.

Saved me a fortune on my divorce s.

Ah, I'll have the

Macallan 30.

-I'm celebrating.

-[waiter] All right.

And for you?

[Jackie] He'll release the pictures,

which will get me fired

for sleeping with an employee.

Unless I release the gates, which will

get me fired for being a shitty CEO.

Am I missing a non-shitty option?

Sorry, Jackie. I don't see a scenario

where you keep your job here.

6-11.

Manna from Heaven. 6-11.

This is the best breakfast burrito

I've ever had.

[Vance] Because there's love

in that burrito.

This is my true calling.

6-12. Give 'em hell! 6-12.

I can't believe that Peter Vance

is running a food truck.

Nah, I just work here.

I live in service now.

I gave Enrique his truck back.

He taught me how to cook,

how to chew my food properly.

Gracias, Enrique.

De nada, big dog.

He's the best.

You know you were the one

I always ran to when I needed advice.

You got any now?

You just gotta figure out

what's most important to you.

There's a voice inside you, Jackie.

It took me 40 years to hear mine.

All you gotta do is listen.

Okay.

Best f*cking burrito ever!

[Vance] You got that right.

6-13. Lean and mean.

Vaya con Dios.

[Jackie] The equipment is

just sitting there for the taking.

At that price,

someone else is gonna grab it.

[Jack] Whoa, Gordita. Slow down.

[Alberto] Hear, hear.

Thank you, Captain Jack.

[Jackie] Okay.

Okay, Daddy. We'll wait.

[Jack] Good girl.

Do you have a second?

Of course.

Come in.

My

My letter of resignation.

Whatever you do, you're gonna

need someone to represent you,

and after those pictures,

it obviously can't be me.

Back to London?

Manhattan.

Big firm. Reputable.

Probably absolutely teeming

with dickheads.

Well, good luck.

I wish you the best.

And please tell Lizzy that

it was your fault that we broke up.

Already done. You're good.

Thanks.

Thank you, Jackie.

It has been a pleasure.

All of it.

Before I go

there is one thing.

You are an exceptional CEO.

Which is why I cannot understand why

you will let one man tell you what to do.

He's got pictures, Daniel.

I'm not talking about that prick.

I'm talking about your dad.

-What?

-Come on, Jackie.

Next to you, he's nothing.

He's a joke. He's a f*cking mascot.

That's my father

that you're talking about.

I know. It's bullshit

you let him push you around.

-Nobody pushes me around.

-Come on, Jackie.

-He's the only thing standing in your way.

-We're done here.

God, I knew you would leave.

Good luck in Manhattan.

Okay.

["Come Back" by Sharon Van Etten playing]

[folksy, melancholy music playing]

Wall eyes

-Morning.

-Morning.

Ceiling felt too high

Nights were falling down skies

Was no look in the eyes

Come back

[door opens]

What's up?

Have a seat.

You've been cleaning up my messes since

you were old enough to push a broom.

Since Mom left and Dad took it out on us.

For once in your tight-a*s life,

look after yourself.

What do you want?

I don't know.

I think I f*cked up her whole life.

Not sure I can do anything now.

You've made huge sacrifices for me

and this company.

And I am so grateful.

Okay, am I about to get fired?

No.

I'm resigning.

This place gives you

a lot of time to think.

I've spent many nights going over

and over what I did to put me in here.

And if I could erase it

and do it again

I would.

-I'd cut his f*cking head off.

-Lizzy!

It still makes me happy

when I think about it.

So whatever you decide

make sure you can live with it locked up

in a box for the rest of your life.

Come back

Come back

And naked and pure

[assistant]

A Sydney Bloom is here to see you.

She brought a a baby.

Sydney, what a pleasant surprise.

I was just--

[whispering]

Baby fell asleep. Fight quietly.

You chicken sh*t,

milquetoast piece of crap.

You're gonna make Jackie do this alone?

When it's your f*cking fault

she's doing it.

You're no longer pregnant so I don't

have to put up with your sh*t anymore.

Trust me, sir.

You have not begun to see my sh*t.

How could you do this to her

with your mayonnaise, ice cream face?

I have a long list of things I would like

to say about your face, but I won't do it.

What? Cut from marble? Perfect?

Michelle Pfeiffer on steroids?

Benedict Cumberbatch in a porn wig, huh?

Sydney, for the love of God,

would you please tell me

what it is you're actually referring to?

This.

-Right.

-Yeah.

-How's the baby?

-Incredible.

Resigning for personal reasons.

Bullshit, Gordita.

You sure?

Well

Then he can't use those stupid pictures.

Air Cruz keeps the gates, keeps growing.

I realize that

that's what's most important to me.

The company.

I've worked too hard

to just let it all fall apart.

So I'll resign.

Trust me, the board will be thrilled.

f*ck the board.

Dad, don't do that, okay?

You love this. This is great for you.

You get to swoop in and save the day,

and take over until

they find a replacement for me.

Why are you like this?

You know the only thing

I will not miss from my job?

Is standing in front of the board with

that frozen smile while you belittle me.

They see me kicking your a*s,

then they don't do it.

Okay, that's bullshit.

How about nobody kicks my a*s?

How about nobody

calls me f*cking gordita at work?

It's a term of affection.

It keeps them thinking

I'm the same girl sitting on your lap

while you do the actual flying.

And we both know who did what, Dad.

Hold yourself right there, lady. Wait.

Let's get one thing straight.

I started this.

This is my airline.

And you were going bankrupt.

You were thinking about

taking on crop-dusting jobs.

I said go bigger.

I went out and got the money to get more

planes. I pushed to go commercial.

Why is it so hard

for you to acknowledge what I did?

Come on.

I've always said that you're a great CEO.

Haven't I always said that?

Not once.

[downcast music playing]

At the top of the hour,

Air Cruz CEO Jacqueline Cruz

will be making an announcement

and investors are watching closely.

The company declined

to comment ahead of time

but expectations are high

that this could signal

a meaningful change for the airline.

When she's done, do me a favor.

Remind me to send some flowers.

To myself.

[lawyer] I don't expect much pushback,

because, quite frankly,

they can't afford it.

I see our good friends at Sandlex

Pharmaceuticals are being sued again.

I think this is one for you,

Mr. Blanchflower.

Mr. Blanchflower.

Jesus, it's like talking to my own kids.

Daniel!

I'm sorry, sir.

I think you need to get someone else.

I'm very grateful

for the job you gave me, but

I

[quirky, upbeat music playing]

quit.

Excuse me? You can't just up and quit.

Please forgive me, but I have

45 minutes to get to New Jersey

to stop the woman I love

from making a terrible mistake.

Good luck defending the billion-dollar

pharmaceutical company.

-[line ringing]

-Pick up. Pick up, pick up, pick up.

Come on, Blankpowder, pick up.

[phone buzzing]

[Sydney] Yes, I will leave a message,

and the message is this.

I always thought you were a gutless b*tch,

but I secretly hoped you weren't.

Hold, please. Jackie,

is there anything that I can say to

convince you not to go through with this?

Let's get this over with.

I could pull the fire alarm

after I set fire to the building.

Wish me luck.

If you are not here in 30 seconds,

I will crush your skull with my bare hands

and then shove it right up your

c**ts!

[horn blares]

You're all a bunch of c**ts!

The bad kind!

Quiet, quiet, quiet, quiet. Here it comes.

Schatz, turn it up.

-Turn it up!

-All right.

Good morning.

I want to welcome

our colleagues and our guests and

Thank you all for taking the time

to be here today.

[horn blaring frantically]

I know most of you

are expecting me to announce

our expansion into Dallas-Fort Worth

but that's not what I'm

Jackie!

[Daniel banging on window]

Jackie!

Jackie!

About f*cking time.

[crowd murmuring]

What I'm here to tell you

is that I've made a decision

and I am stepping down.

I am so sorry I'm late.

The Holland Tunnel was bumper to bumper.

It's insane to me

that that's how you lot get around.

Two lanes?

If one bad thing happens,

two cities shut down.

Mr. Blanchflower, we are

in the middle of a press conference here.

Ms. Cruz

I needed to tell you something

before you did this. Could we

Could we please take a moment outside?

You have everybody's attention.

If you have something to say, just say it.

But it's private.

Right.

Well, then it's gonna have to wait.

Please excuse the interruption.

As I was saying

I have made the decision

-and I am stepping down.

-Ms. Cruz and I slept together.

What the f*ck?

[surprised chattering]

There.

I said it.

Now everyone knows

and he can't do anything

with those stupid pictures

in which you look really beautiful.

No, no, no, no.

-[Daniel] Ms. Cruz and I

-No, no, no, no.

violated this company's zero-tolerance

policy on interoffice relationships.

But our relationship wasn't inappropriate.

It was

appropriate and

magical.

We did try to be professional.

We really did but

I got a b*ner just talking to her.

I mean, you've seen her.

She's so fit. It's unbelievable.

Daniel, that actually was private.

Some things are private.

This is all new to me. I don't know where

the line is. I do now. b*ner is too far.

Anything below the waist, too far.

Understood.

Jackie. My God, it's hot in here.

It was freezing outside

and it's boiling in here.

Let's fight him, Jackie.

That's what I would have

said to you 15 minutes ago

if the Holland Tunnel had

more than two lanes.

It's honestly

the maddest thing I've ever seen.

You should have taken the bridge.

You're right.

You're always right. You're undefeated.

Don't quit, Jackie.

You're too bloody good at this.

[Jack] The Brit's right.

He's finally talking sense.

She's the brains behind this operation.

Always has been.

And if she goes, I go.

You knock me out.

Ms. Cruz.

It took me 30 years

and a very polite British lawyer

to finally stand up to that man.

Thank you, Daddy.

You're welcome, baby.

[shocked gasps]

God. That was meant for him.

I'm so sorry. Of course it was.

My apologies, sir. Forgive me.

Jackie.

You once told me

to always tell you the truth.

So here's the truth.

I love you.

I do. I love this woman.

I love you.

And I want to work with you.

I want to spend the rest of our lives

together for all the days we have left

until we die

and come back as a worm and a cat.

[sweet, tender music playing]

[Sydney] Psst!

Press conference.

We're currently at a press conference.

Right.

No.

I'm not stepping down.

It's my name on the side of that plane

and a graphic I designed in crayon

sitting on the floor of my dad's office

when I was 12 years old.

And I'll tell you something else.

Daniel isn't the only relationship

that I've had at work.

I've had relationships

with all my employees.

They're my family.

From now on, I'm going to make sure

you guys all know

how much you mean to me.

Because I'm not going anywhere.

I am standing here to proudly announce

that we are expanding

into Dallas-Fort Worth.

And anyone who wants to fight me on

that is going to need a hell of a lawyer.

Because I've got

the best one in New Jersey.

Which means

I have the best one in the world.

Yo, Jersey!

Jersey!

Jersey, baby!

Yes! Go on, brother!

Turn it off, Schatz.

Schatz! Turn it off!

You know, I could still lose

my job, my company,

and everything I've worked for.

I won't let you fall out of the sky.

["You Can't Hurry Love"

So, I got your memo about

interoffice relationships--

Yeah. It states that they are permitted

as long as they are declared.

-Right there.

-Yeah.

So, you know the guy

who looks like a hot elf

who works in the mailroom, Marcus?

I've been f*cking him

for about a year and a half.

And he's the father of this child.

Breathe, breathe, George.

And he's also the creator

of many, many, many, many orgasms.

So, just wanted to keep you in the loop.

Uh, thank you.

So, Heather and I have

started seeing each other.

It's just wonderful.

Um, we actually finally

went all the way last night.

-I don't need the details.

-I don't mind.

So, she started by kissing me

on my down there.

And then started working in circles.

Which, um

Turns out circles are my favorite shape.

Quick heads up.

Someone broke into my office and

downloaded p*rn*graphy onto my laptop.

And desktop.

And phone.

at the office Christmas party.

Ooh, wowza.

Gary and I need to disclose that we are

in a consensual, intimate relationship.

[George] Okay.

So, what is Luke doing here?

I watch.

We couldn't do it without him.

Ah, let me take a wild guess.

You're here to tell me

that you two are f*cking.

We're here to tell you that

we keep duplicating our workload.

And we wanted help clarifying

our job descriptions

so that we could avoid inefficiencies.

Oh, God. I'm sorry.

And we're f*cking.

There it is.

[both sigh]

Is it okay to send somebody a d*ck pic

if it's not your d*ck and it's a drawing?

I would like to work here.

This is my rsum

and, um, some naked pictures of me.

Get the f*ck out of my office.

I just want to let you know that I have

not done anything with anyone.

But I'm up for it.

Can you write that down? I am up for it.

You are up for it

because that's what this says.

-I have to ask you to take these down.

-Aw.

I sucked off Dave.

So did I.

Well, Dave went down on me.

And you wonder why I'm so tired.

But everyone here should get tested.

Ms. Cruz, Mr. Blanchflower,

what can I do for you?

You want me to make it okay

for people to freely take a sh*t

and throw it at each other?

No, George.

We just wanted to drop by

and, as per your policy,

officially declare that

We're getting married.

-No.

-Yes!

You're invited. Everyone's invited.

The wedding's going to be in London.

A destination wedding,

I know, but, you know, free flight, so.

Oh, this is wonderful news.

As husband and wife,

your relationship is above board

and it's finally

appropriate for the office.

Yes! Thought you'd appreciate that.

-Very much.

-Thank you so much, George.

Thank you, George.

This means a lot.

You can finally get

a good night's sleep tonight.

Yeah, I will.

-Open or closed?

-Closed.

Thank you, George.
