The Work Wife (2018) - full transcript

Whoa, hold up, hold up.

What do you mean?

We're ten feet from the house,

you can't make it?

I don't know if this is normal,

but I'm sweating in my ears.

Is that, is that right?

Hmm, I stink.

I don't care because I love you.

I love you too.

Right. You don't sweat? Huh?

You look as beautiful as you did

when you left this morning.

Ah, you're just sayin'

that 'cause you love me.

-That's not true.

-Hm.

Well, anyway, I am proud of you.

You kept up with me this time.

That's a first.

Yeah, I had a little motivation.

No.

-What?

-No!

No, you have a good day

ahead of you,

you gotta get ready for work.

I'll chase you if I have to.

-Come here.

-Oh, God.

Don't even think about it.

How did you see me?

The reflection

in the window, genius.

Okay, got it.

What's this?

So, I was gonna pick

something up on the way to work.

Well, you never know, you might

not have a chance to get away.

Regardless, you now have this

brilliant

culinary masterpiece

to look forward to.

Hashtag, wifeskills.

Hm, well, thank you.

So, how you feelin'?

I'm, uh...

I'm-I'm fine. Why?

You're not nervous, are you?

No. Not at all.

Yes, I am, a little.

Well, you are a senior

copywriter at Pepper & Muir.

You've been talking

about this agency for years.

You are one of the best

in the business

and it is about time

that one of these big agencies

hire someone like you.

Lisa, it's not

that big of a deal.

No, I get it, it is a big deal.

You haven't worked

in a few months,

money's tight.

I know, I pay the bills.

Hey. I'm sorry.

But, yeah, I am a little tense,

okay?

Well...

you wouldn't be human

if you weren't

a little nervous.

It's okay.

Yep, I-I know what it is.

I hate first days.

Just wish we could

fast-forward a few weeks.

Yeah, well, I'm not concerned.

I know you're going to crush it.

All right.

Oh, I forgot to tell you.

I got another

graphic design client yesterday.

-Oh.

-Word is spreading.

So, I think I'm gonna

go at it full time.

Okay, I mean,

are you ready

for something like that?

Yeah. Yeah, I've been feeling

a lot better lately.

Anyway, we both need to work.

Not just you.

All right.

-Jacket.

-Jacket.

Okay.

-Okay, I gotta go.

-I love you.

Love you too.

-Knock 'em dead.

-Call you soon.

You're early, Mr. Miller.

Oh, hi, yeah,

it's, uh, first day,

and if you're not on time,

you're late in my book.

Well, that's a great attitude.

Miss Williams will certainly

appreciate that.

-Good.

-Can I get you some coffee?

No, actually,

I'm, I'm fine, thank you.

Okay, well, let me

show you to your office.

Um, I'm sorry, wait, office?

I... I normally

just get a little cubicle.

No, Miss Williams likes

all of her copywriters

to have their own spaces

to keep those

creative juices flowing.

Well...

Follow me.

-Restroom this way?

-Yes.

-Thanks.

-Sean.

-Good morning.

-Oh, Miss Williams.

Good to see you again.

Katie, my senior employees and I

are all on first name basis.

-Got it?

-Got it. Katie.

So, how'd you like your office?

Uh, it is amazing.

So, thank you again

for the opportunity.

I look forward to working

with you and your team.

And I'm looking forward

to finally having your creative

brilliance here.

-Rather than with other guys.

-Spencer & Williams, yes.

Mm, no.

Don't say those names here.

-They're the enemy.

-Oh, I'm not gonna say it again.

Never.

So,

have you heard of

Harper's Gin Tonic?

Yeah, they're the, uh,

the cocktail mix company, right?

Yes, they're trying to

branch out

into other avenues right now,

and we're on the verge

of landing the contract

for all of their products.

This could be huge

for our agency.

Why don't you get comfortable

and meet me in my office in 30.

You got it, Katie.

Yes.

So, I looked over some

of the Harper's Gin Tonic info.

Uh, how can I be of assistance?

I actually want you

to meet someone.

Hey, I've actually been

looking for you.

Lena said you wanted to see me.

Yes, Sean, this is Jen Anderson.

She's one of our

junior copywriters.

Jen's gonna be bringing you

up to speed

on the account

and assisting you.

Jen, this is Sean Miller,

our new senior copywriter.

Oh, I didn't know you were

hiring from the outside.

Well,

I wouldn't really say

he's from the outside.

Sean used to work

for one of our competitors.

You can say he's

kind of from in the inside,

if you know what I mean.

So, if you wouldn't mind

bringing him up to speed

on the Gin Tonic account,

so he's ready

for the 3 p.m. pitch meeting?

Absolutely.

I'll give you the tour.

Yeah, thank you.

Pleasure meeting you.

Pleasure's all mine.

And, Katie, we'll see you

in the conference room later.

So, Katie said something

about a pitch.

Wow, straight to business,

I see.

-Well, sorry.

-No apologies.

I like a man

who gets right to it.

This is Ray's office.

He's the other

senior copywriter.

Kind of a jerk. Very uptight.

He looks down on us juniors,

which is not a good idea

considering it's our job

to take care

of the senior copywriters,

like you.

Anyway, meet me in my cubicle

in 15 to talk drinks.

I'm talking about

Gin Tonic, silly,

not happy hour.

Oh, and I'm yours,

so, do as you please.

Okay, you've been a copywriter

for way too long

if you think everything's

a double entendre.

No, I, no, I was...

Ne-never mind.

No, literally, it's my job to

take care of you,

so, whatever you need,

I have your back.

It's almost like we're married.

For better or for worse.

Till death do us apart.

I'm married, I'm married.

Mr. Harper,

we're very excited

to brainstorm ideas with you.

Ray, would you mind presenting

your ideas first?

Uh, yes, uh, well, o-okay

so, imagine, if you will,

an overworked manager

in a small, yet, uh, busy

office in the Midwest.

No.

We want to get away

from the corporate image.

Oh, uh, right, okay, then, uh...

All right,

we're in a college dorm--

No, our products are high-end.

College students

can't afford them.

Yes, of course.

Okay, how about... if we--

Mr. Harper, this is Sean Miller

another of our

senior copywriters.

Go ahead, Sean, tell Mr. Harper

your brilliant ideas.

My ideas?

Yes, the ones

we discussed earlier?

They were brilliant.

Oh, those, uh,

yes, those ideas, um...

Sure, excuse me.

Well, Sir, the, uh,

the entire team and I were,

we were brainstorming

earlier this morning

and we realized that...

Well, when creating

an event or a party,

the Harper's Gin Tonic

traditionally

is not the leading brand.

It's more like a supporting

cast member.

We're proposing that the

Harper's Gin Tonic be the star.

You see, we at P&M

believe that if we can

create a campaign

where Harper's Gin Tonic is the,

the life of the party,

the leading liquor at an event.

It's the-it's the first item

that you purchase before you buy

any other drink.

We can do one of two things.

Number one, we could change

the public's perception

of your brand,

and, number two,

we think we can

triple your sales

by simply stating

that Harper's Gin Tonic

is-is the star...

Sir.

If you'd like, Sean and I

can create a presentation

and have it ready

for you in just

a couple of days.

You're definitely onto

something there, Mr. Miller.

I'll give you 48 hours.

Thank you, Sir,

we really appreciate it.

Nice save there, Miller.

Thank you, Sir.

Very impressive, Sean.

Thank you, Jen.

Way to think on your feet.

Yeah.

I guess we have some work to do.

-Two days.

-My God!

-Great job.

-Thanks, I'll catch up with you.

Yeah.

Well, hello there,

Mr. Senior Copywriter.

Well,

hello there, beautiful.

Rough first day?

I mean, uh, I mean...

No, not really,

just a little intense.

What happened?

Well, I completely faked my way

through an

entire presentation.

Well,

that's right up your alley.

Ha-ha, very funny.

So now, I gotta get

to my office

and figure out

what this product is

and then, uh, Jen's coming by

and we're gonna create

a campaign.

Jen? Who's that?

Uh, she's my junior copywriter.

You got

a junior copywriter, huh?

Yeah, the boss, Katie,

she puts together

junior and senior copywriters

and, you know,

it's kinda like her job

to support whatever I do.

I thought that was my job.

-Ha-ha, very funny. Hold on.

-[Jen] I'm sorry.

Let's go to lunch.

No, my wife,

she packed me something.

No, no, no, we're goin' out.

-Sorry, sweetie.

-What's goin' on?

No, Jen just wanted

to take me to lunch.

You mean you're not gonna eat

my gourmet cooking?

Well, there's a, uh...

There's a nice restaurant

across the street

that serves a mean

pastrami sandwich

and it's kind of my favorite.

All right, well,

at least you'll have

that sandwich in case,

you know,

you have to stay late.

I'll meet you downstairs.

And call me if you do,

so I can hear your voice.

You know I will. I love you.

I love you too.

-Buh-bye.

-Bye.

So, um, how long

have you been married?

-Five years.

-Aw!

You're newlyweds.

Well, if you consider being

married five years newlyweds,

yeah, I guess, it's...

Seems like forever.

Five years isn't that long.

Eh, well, okay.

Well, do you have any kids?

No. No kids.

I mean, not yet.

But, um...

What?

No, it's nothing.

Sean, you can tell me.

I'm here for you.

My wife just had

her second miscarriage

a few months ago,

so it's been

really, really rough on her.

And on top of that,

I haven't

worked in three months.

So, yeah, it's, uh...

certainly has not been easy.

Well, you're in love, right?

And with love,

you can conquer anything.

Yeah, right.

Okay, so...

What about you?

Married? Kids?

Uh, no.

Um, I don't even have

a boyfriend, actually.

Come on.

I'm just, I guess,

really focused on work and...

Honestly, I don't think

I'm marriage material.

I doubt that, I think

you just haven't found

the right guy.

Well, I thought I had,

but, um...

he died.

Oh, I'm, I'm so sorry.

I don't know,

things were going really well

and he started slipping

at work, and...

he got fired.

And, um...

he couldn't handle it,

and, um...

he killed himself.

I'm really sorry, that's, um...

That's terrible.

Anyway, that took me

a long time to get over.

I'm just... now

finally able to... you know,

think about other men

in that way.

He worked at P&M, actually.

What?

Yeah, he was

a senior copywriter.

-Thank you.

-Thank you.

-Oh.

-Sorry.

No, no, that's okay,

that's okay.

I'm-I'm sorry for you, but, um,

just-just so you know,

get what you want, this one,

the first one's on me.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Honey, I'm home.

I'm upstairs,

takin' a bath.

Hey.

Hello.

Hey.

Well, good, glad to know

you actually care about me.

Mm, what's that supposed

to mean?

It means you didn't call.

It's been several hours.

You said you'd call.

Honey, I'm sorry.

Jen and I got slammed

on this presentation

for the new

Harper's Gin Tonic account

Oh, okay.

Um, listen, Jen told me

that they hire outside

graphic designers

and she thought

it'd be a good idea if you

jumped on board to help us

with the presentation.

-Really?

-Mm-hm.

That's... really nice of her.

Hm, yep.

Where you goin'?

Uh, sweetie, I-I have a lot of

work to do.

Well... I'm happy to see you

back in the saddle.

I missed this Sean Miller.

Yeah.

I missed this Sean Miller too.

What are you thinking?

What am I thinking?

Um, I am thinking

that we use all

the Gin Tonic products

and we make them

characters in the story.

I love it. It's like

we're casting a movie.

Exactly. Hey, by chance,

do you have any other

comps for the other products

I can post?

Yeah. Ray and I were playing

around with those last week.

They should still

be on his desk.

Sorry, do you mind

grabbing them while I jump

on this call,

they should be in a folder

labelled "Gin Tonic."

-Got it.

-Hey.

Uh, do you think he'll mind?

Ray? Pfft! No, not at all.

He'll probably be happy

he doesn't have to do the work.

What?

No.

Yeah.

Okay.

Bye.

And finally,

all the insuring casts

will pretty much say

the same thing.

They'll now have continuity

with all the marketing

materials.

Thank you.

Good job.

Mm, we'll see.

I love it.

You do?

Yes, I think you have

the exact vision

I'm looking for.

It's brilliant.

Thank you.

Where did you find this guy?

Good job.

Let's move forward

with Miller's idea.

The job is yours.

Great, I'll have

Business Affairs

put together a contract

and we'll start

work on the new mockups

based on this consent.

Congrats, Jen, Sean.

Unbelievable.

That was my concept.

I'm sorry, what?

Y-you steal some of my

concepts...

...without giving me

any credit.

Ray, hold on a minute,

what are you talking about?

We worked on them together, Ray.

I didn't realize

they were your concepts.

I...

Lena...

Lena told me...

that you were in my office.

Of course she did.

Yeah, I went into your

office

to get a file that Jen left.

You mean, my concepts?

Ray, I...

I said I'm sorry.

You know, I-I, ugh...

I don't believe

either one of you.

Give me a break, Ray.

You're just jealous because Sean

nabbed a client

on his first pitch

and you haven't brought in

a new client for months.

Oh, go ahead.

Do something outrageous.

Find out how long

you keep your job.

You better watch your back,

Miller.

'Cause this place...

it isn't what you think it is.

Oh, he's so dramatic.

Jen, were-were

some of those his ideas?

Some were his, some were mine.

Oh, come on, Jen.

He works for the company.

There's no "I" in team, right?

Isn't that what

you boys always say?

Aren't we working together?

Look, he's just bitter

because his ideas got shot down.

It's fine.

Nice job, you guys.

We've got to celebrate tonight.

A little office party on me

at the City Cafe.

D-d-do you mind

if I invite my wife?

I'm sure she would like to,

uh, meet everyone.

Of course,

we'd, we'd love to meet her.

-Great.

-Yeah, right.

Yeah, I mean,

you know what they say,

"Behind every great man

is a great woman."

Well, I should probably go call

my wife right now.

Right?

Good work.

Thank you.

To the perfect team!

Hey!

Yes!

Oh, hey, guys.

Sorry I'm late.

You look beautiful.

Thanks, sweetie.

You must be Lisa!

It's so nice to meet you.

Sean's told me

so much about you.

It's nice to meet you too.

-Honey, do you want a drink?

-Yes, I'd love one.

-So, Sean--

-It's so much... Oh.

You go first.

Well, I was just gonna say that

Sean's already

a superstar around here.

-Really?

-Mm-hm.

Have you told her the good news?

Uh, no,

because I was gonna do it

when I saw her in person.

So, we are here

because Mr. Harper

approved our Gin Tonic concept.

Uh, your Gin Tonic concepts.

Ours. We're a team, right?

That is so awesome!

Congratulations,

I'm so happy for you.

For all of you.

So, Lisa, uh,

Sean tells me that you own

your own

graphic design business.

Oh, yeah, um, it's,

you know, I'm just

starting back up again.

I'm trying to get a few more

paying customers. [chuckles]

So, what kinda things do you do?

You know, ads, campaigns,

et cetera.

Right now, I'm working on

an invitation

for the grand opening

of a beauty salon

near my house.

And it is amazing.

Uh, have you ever done

any corporate stuff?

Yeah, yeah, in the past.

Not recently.

Well, I was thinking...

that maybe you should

take a stab

at the Gin Tonic presentation.

We're down a couple

of graphic designers here

at the office,

so we could really use the help.

I have the budget

to hire someone freelance.

You can get your feet wet.

Okay, you know what,

don't worry about it, guys,

I really do have

a lot on my plate.

So, it's fine.

You know what?

I think Jen's right.

I think you should take

the graphics position.

You sure about that?

Yeah, yeah, I think

you'd do an amazing job.

-Oh, okay, wow. Yay.

-Fantastic!

So, once Sean gives me

the direction we're heading,

I'll give you a call

and we'll get started.

-All right.

-Sean, come over here.

And bring over

that real wife of yours.

I wanna meet her.

Um, I'll see you in a minute.

Have fun, girls.

That's the boss.

-Okay.

-Oh.

"Real wife,"

what's that?

It's, it's like

an office joke.

Since Sean and I are so close

I'm the work wife,

you're the real wife.

I mean, if it bothers you,

I can tell 'em to stop.

No, no, it's fine.

-Okay.

-Don't worry about it.

-I'll be right back.

-Mm-hm.

Let's take a

selfie. You mind?

Okay, ready? One, two, three.

One more.

One, two, three.

So, I'm here with world-famous

graphic design artist,

Lisa Miller.

So, Lisa, tell me,

what's the latest project

you're working on.

Well, my latest job

is working for P&M's

Gin Tonic team.

And is that Gin Tonic

you're drinking?

It is, and I, I have to say...

It's terrible!

It tastes like cough syrup.

It's like I need

a chaser for my cocktail.

What's that?

That is awesome,

I'm sending that

to you right now

because it's so funny.

Oh, I love it, oh, my God.

-So bad.

-Oh, there's... There he is.

Sean! Come on.

You okay?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm-I'm fine.

No, you're not.

I know you too well already.

Do you?

You and Lisa are having

problems, aren't you?

It's just you and me.

No one else here.

Do you wanna use me

as a sounding board

and get some things

off your chest?

Tell me what's goin' on.

I mean, I know

about the miscarriages

and... it's awful.

But, I know there's

something else.

Yeah, but I don't understand why

she doesn't see that.

Yeah, well, sounds like

she doesn't know what she has.

I don't know, maybe it's because

I was raised without a dad,

that's why I...

don't know if I could

really be a good dad at all.

You're gonna be a great dad.

-You think so?

-Yes.

You're such a gregarious guy.

I can totally see you,

you know,

playin' with your kids,

teaching them,

coaching baseball.

Oh, no, it's...

Uh, I gotta go.

It's late.

I... Can I, uh...

Can I ask you something?

Why are you treating me so nice?

Because you're my boss.

And, honestly...

I have a slight crush on you.

-Kinda married.

-I know.

And... it makes you even more

attractive to me.

It's like I see how good you are

to your wife

and...

...you're sexy.

Well, who knows

what would have happened

if we'd have met

ten years earlier.

Yeah.

Maybe things would've been

different between us.

Sean, I don't wanna be

just your work wife.

I wanna be your real wife.

Please.

I can't.

It's late and I...

I have to go.

Good night, Jen.

-Sean?

-Hey, hon. I'm home.

What are you still doing up?

You're working

on the Harper account?

Yeah. Yeah, I wanted

to do a good job for you.

Where you been?

Oh, I've just, uh, you know...

Work...

Just some work stuff.

Why didn't you come home

to work?

Could've helped me

with the presentation.

Well, I figured Jen gave you

all the information

that you needed. So...

Would have been nice

if you at least called.

Yeah, sorry.

Well, I-I've gotta...

I gotta hit the sack.

All righty. I will see you

bright and early in the morning.

Okay, well, I'm gonna

get to your office

as early as possible,

so I guess I won't wake you.

Okay. All right.

I'll see you in the morning.

-Hey, Sean.

-Hey.

Her renderings are great.

I-I'm sorry. Whose renderings?

You didn't forget, did you?

-What?

-Your wife's.

She's in the conference room

setting up.

Okay. Would you please

stop saying that?

Jen is not my work wife.

I wasn't referring to Jen.

Your real wife's here.

Oh, no!

Oh, I am such an idiot.

Oh, well...

Good morning, sunshine.

I thought on time was late.

Yeah, I'd, uh...

I, I really couldn't sleep much

after our conversation

last night.

I know. Neither could I.

Stop. Stop.

You, you can't do that,

especially with my wife here.

Sure.

Sean.

Yes. What?

I was gonna save this

for after we got the first

payment on the Harper account,

but I decided

to give it to you now.

For good luck.

Open it.

Jen, what's this all about?

-It's engraved.

-I-I, I know it's engraved.

Why would you buy me something?

Because you're so good to me.

And I wanted to reciprocate

with something meaningful.

I'm glad you like it.

Jen, listen, it's, it's,

it's very thoughtful.

Okay?

Well, I'm sure you wanna

get in there and see your wife,

so I'll be in in a moment.

Okay.

-Hey.

-Hey.

-So, how is it?

-It's great. It's ready.

Good. Do you need me

look over it anymore?

-No. I've got it.

-You sure?

Perfect. Yeah. It's set.

I'm sorry. I'm just,

I'm just nervous.

No, you're gonna be great.

And if this is ready,

it's gonna be perfect.

-All right.

-Have full faith in me.

Okay. Oh, here they come.

I gotta go.

-Okay. Good luck.

-Thank you.

Lisa. Where're you going?

Oh, um, I'm...

I'm heading out.

I-it's all set. All you'd have

to do is push play.

No, we need you,

what if something goes wrong

with the presentation?

Here. Have a seat.

Watch our man do his thing.

Okay.

Thank you all for coming

and the opportunity to present

our ideas to you.

Sean, take it away.

Okay. So, um, we open

on an aerial shot of Hollywood.

And then,

we cut to various shots

of the glitz and glamour

of old Hollywood.

Now, as we push

in to the movie theatre,

the curtain opens,

and there is your

entire Harper's

Gin Tonic line on stage.

We have instantly created

your product as a star

instead of a co-star.

And we've also

allowed the consumer

to connect with the product line

and the glitz and glamour

of Hollywood.

Now, this is

the new Gin Tonic girl.

She, uh... Well, she represents

a lifestyle of...

Well, a lifestyle

of someone who drinks

Harper's Gin Tonic products.

It tastes like cough syrup.

Seriously, I need a chaser

for my cocktail.

-What?

-Who does that?

-Do you want some?

-What is the meaning of this?

Come on...

Mr. Harper, we apologize.

Is this some kind of joke?

I'm sorry. I don't,

I don't know what happened.

Is that you?

I-I'm sorry.

She's just a freelance designer.

Clearly,

the presentation's gone wrong.

It certainly has.

Crappy "cough syrup."

Is this how you feel

about Gin Tonic?

No, sir. No, sir--

How am I supposed to continue

with your agency

if you can't even

respect my product?

I've had enough.

I am sure, Spencer & Williams

could use my business.

Mr. Harper...

Sean, I am so sorry.

I have no idea

what happened. I...

I went through that presentation

20 times.

Lisa, I trusted you.

Do you not understand, this was

a huge presentation for me.

Do you know what's gonna happen

if I lose my job?

We cannot go three more months

without income.

-Jen, I'm sorry.

-No.

Really. It's my fault.

I should have never put you

in this position,

especially because you don't

have any corporate experience.

No, no. I was prepared.

I-I have no idea

how that video got there.

Sweetie, it's totally on me,

okay?

I should have

hired a professional.

Sean...

We will talk when I get home.

I'm so sorry, Sean.

Don't worry about it.

Have you spoken to Katie?

Nope.

I, uh...

Well, I talked

to Dr. Garcia today.

Is that something we really

wanna get into right now?

No. You're right. I'm sorry.

Are you gonna answer it?

I-it could be work.

Then I'm definitely

not gonna answer it.

Sean, what can I do

to make this up to you?

I just need some time, okay?

Hey, sweetheart, I'm sorry.

I need to apologize.

What is this?

What?

Are you leaving me?

Leaving you?

No. Why?

Look at these text messages.

I am so disgusted by you

right now!

I can't believe

you had the nerve

to come back into our house!

Lisa, I don't know why

she sent this.

These, these are lies, okay?

Why would she lie, Sean?

Looks like you're the liar.

And a cheat!

Come on. Stop.

All right, stop, stop!

No, don't.

You should go stay with her.

'Cause I don't want you here!

Lisa!

Damn it!

Sean.

Sean.

You bad boy.

You didn't

answer any of my texts.

You look tense.

Is that why you wanted to meet?

Maybe we should

blow off some steam.

We could go dancing...

or something.

-What the hell is your problem?

-What do you mean?

You know exactly

what I'm talking about.

-No, I don't.

-Yes, you do.

You set Lisa up to fail.

-No, I didn't.

-It was your recording.

A-and what's with all this

nonsense with the texting, huh?

You knew exactly

what you were doing

when you recorded that video.

How would I know that?

J-just don't play dumb, Jen.

You don't play dumb, Sean.

Come on.

There's chemistry between us.

And there's nothing

between you and Lisa.

I have a wife, okay?

So? You don't have children.

And you probably can't even

have children with her,

so what do you have really?

-Huh?

-What do I have?

-Yeah. Yeah!

-What do I have?

-I have a commitment, Jen.

-Oh.

Like that ever meant

anything to you.

What the hell

is that supposed to mean?

I know why you left

Spencer & Williams.

You reneged on a deal.

You had a contract,

but you walked out.

Your word means nothing, Sean.

How do you know about that?

'Cause I did my research.

Good for you.

But see, the problem is

that's business,

not personal.

Oh, it's not personal, huh?

It's not personal?

You've been flirting with me

ever since the moment

you walked in here!

You know what? You're insane.

You are insane!

Be a professional, Jen.

And leave my wife alone, okay?

Fine. Sean.

'Cause all I want is for you

to be happy!

And you weren't happy with her!

A front-running

Flyers

ripped the Sabres 14-3.

Maybe even got past the Flames

7-6.

Dan Quinn scored three times

helping the Penguins

pass the Jets 8-3...

-Yeah.

-Sean.

I need you to come home now!

Uh, you kinda kicked me out,

honey.

Our house

caught on fire!

-What?

-Yeah.

-Are you okay?

-Sean, I need you.

-Please come home.

-I'm on my way right now.

No. I'm on my way right now.

Honey, I said

I'll be right there.

Okay, bye.

So you're sure it only damaged

the porch?

-The house is okay?

-Officer!

-Excuse me, this is my house.

-Sir. hold on. One moment.

-Excuse me, Sir. Sir?

-Hey, honey!

-Honey.

-Oh, Sean.

-I'm so sorry.

-I'm sorry, too.

What? Believe me.

This is my boss...

-I'm sorry. Are you okay?

-Yeah.

Now that you're here.

Really. This is my boss.

I have to see if he's okay.

-Did you call her?

-No. No.

I'm so sorry.

I heard about the fire and I

just got the creepiest feeling

that it was your house.

What happened?

Are you guys okay?

Jen, how did you hear

about this?

I heard it in the news.

What news? There's no one here.

Well, s-someone must have

reported it

because I heard it on the radio

and they specifically said

your street.

And I just got worried.

Well,

we're, we're just fine.

So, you can go home now.

You don't have to be so rude.

I came here to help you.

Sure you did.

Look, I don't know why you're

here and what you're up to,

but we don't need your help,

all right?

Officer? Can you please escort

this woman off of our property?

She doesn't need to be here.

-Sean--

-No. Don't.

-Don't touch me.

-Ma'am, please leave.

I have every right to be here.

You can't just tell me

to go away.

-This is a public street...

-Ma'am, let's, let's go.

What is this?

This woman is infatuated

with you, Sean.

You have to do something

about this.

I will. I will.

Officer. Officers. I'll, uh...

I'll take care of this.

Can I have a moment, please?

Jen, um, listen, this is...

It's a very emotional time

for us right now.

And I really, really

appreciate you showing up.

I need some privacy.

And you've got to respect that.

Fine.

I'll do it for you

but not for her.

I'd better go.

That woman

is seriously demented.

I'm sorry, honey.

I'll take care of it.

Yeah. Let's go, let's go talk

to the officers. Come on.

Don't worry about that.

Let's go. Come on.

I don't know

what's going on between you two,

but I can't afford to have you

acting like teenagers

when I'm trying to run

a business.

If you can't figure out

how to work together,

then I'm gonna fire you and you.

-I didn't do anything.

-I don't wanna hear it.

You're both responsible.

I already have to get down

on my hands and knees

and try to beg

for the Harper account back.

I don't need the two of you

making my life

any more difficult.

So bury your heads in your work

and get the job done.

-Got it?

-Got it.

Good.

Now, get the hell out of here

and help me

get this campaign back.

Sean.

Sean, come on.

Mr. Harper's waiting.

Okay. Be right back.

Lisa.

Lisa.

Hi.

Listen.

I've been meaning to call you

over the past couple weeks

but Sean and I have just been

so busy

on the Gin Tonic account...

Anyway, I really just

wanted to apologize to you

for my behavior.

-I'm sorry.

-Hm.

Well, I appreciate

your apology.

But it's a bit late.

Just keep your work relationship

with my husband

strictly professional.

You get it?

Yes. Of course. I...

I just wanted you to hear

directly from me.

Please, believe me. I didn't

light your house on fire.

-I promise--

-Please stop.

It's done. Past.

Right. So let's just

move forward.

Listen. I thought your

relationship was on the rocks.

But when I found out you were

still together, you know,

I, I told Sean that you should

go for it. With the kids.

I-I'm sorry, it's probably

none of my business

but he mentioned to me

that you were having

a really hard time

starting a family.

He...

He talked to you about that?

Yeah.

I hope you don't mind.

But it was really

bothering him and...

you know, he mentioned that you

had a couple of miscarriages.

But I told him, "Look.

A lot of women go through this."

-And it's not--

-Excuse me.

Sean, I need to

speak to you now.

I was in a kind of an important

conversation.

Did you talk to Jen

about our personal life?

What? No.

Then how come she knows

about our miscarriages?

I... [stammering] I don't know.

I mean, maybe one night

when we were

talking late in the office,

it just happened to come up.

It just came up?

What?

You know I didn't want you

to talk to anybody about that,

let alone some floozy like her!

You might think I'm stupid.

But I know that you set me up

with that video.

And I know that you're trying

to steal my husband.

Well, you are not

going to succeed,

because I'm gonna make sure that

you are put behind bars.

It's really unfortunate

that you feel this way, Lisa.

Because I was just beginning

to really like you.

In fact, I was thinking that

maybe some day soon we were

gonna be friends.

You can go to hell!

Hey, hey, hey, we're...

What the hell are you doing?

I'm putting an end

to this whore's BS!

Do you have to

do that here, huh?

Sean.

I need you and Jen

at the microphone now.

Yes, Ma'am.

-Honey, listen--

-Don't!

I'll be waiting in the car.

I'm sorry.

I don't, I don't...

I don't know what got into me.

You know that there is nothing

going on

between Jen and I, right?

Yeah.

I know.

What?

Not...

No, it's nothing.

What's funny?

You, you...

I... re...

I remember

you called her a floozy

and the entire room heard it!

How was I supposed to know

I was standing

next to a live microphone?

You know, it doesn't matter,

'cause she deserved it.

So embarrassing.

I'm sorry.

You know I love you, right?

I love you.

And I don't even care

if I ever see Jen again

'cause she's

such a terrible girl,

and she steals people's w-work

and takes their credit

from 'em and...

She's a horrible girl,

I'm telling you.

This is not fun.

Hey, there. This is Sean.

Give me your name and number

and I'll call you back.

Hey, this is Ray

and I need to talk to you.

Jen is still here at the party

and she is drunk out of her mind

and she is spoutin' off

some pretty interesting

things and...

Well, I-I don't

mean to shock you

but I just heard her

tell somebody

that she set your house

on fire.

Call me back ASAP.

Uh, Ray.

Oh, what do you want?

Listen.

I feel like you and I are

having some issues.

And I'd like to start over

with you.

Like, reset our relationship.

I don't think so.

Ray.

Please.

It's never gonna happen.

In fact, tomorrow,

I am gonna recommend to Katie

that she gets you fired.

Really?

And why do you feel that way?

I don't know what you're up to,

but ever since Sean

came to our office,

you have been acting like

a little...

like a little devil.

A devil?

Really?

It's an extreme description.

Don't you think, Ray?

Well, I think

setting someone's house on fire

is extreme.

And why would you think

I'd do something like that?

Because, genius,

I heard you

telling your drunk girlfriends.

Tomorrow morning,

I'm calling the police.

Oh, you are, are you?

You are... done.

I hope you like

the color orange.

And why is that?

'Cause that's gonna be

the color that you're

gonna be wearing

for the next 20 years.

I'll see you in hell, Ray.

Is he okay?

Are you sure?

Yeah.

I am ready to have a family.

-I love you.

-I love you.

Sean!

-Katie, you okay?

-Y-you weren't there?

-Where? What?

-The party.

You must've left early.

Ray slipped

and fell down the stairs.

-Is he okay?

-No, he's dead.

The police are here,

they wanna question you.

Why would they

wanna talk to me?

You were the last person

Ray called before he died.

Oh, I'm-I'm not aware of that,

I lost my phone.

Well, they have

reason to believe

that he might've been pushed.

Pushed?

Who in the world

would wanna kill Ray?

I don't know.

Guess you missed all

the fireworks last night, huh?

Yeah, I guess so.

His body was twisted

like a pretzel.

Jen! How can you say that?

What? I-I'm just

describing what I saw.

Officer, this is Sean Miller.

Sean, this is Officer Murran.

Sir, I'm here to help.

Whatever you need.

Hello,

Mr. Miller, I appreciate it.

Uh, would you mind

if we go in the room?

Hey, you okay?

Yeah, I guess.

Yeah, it's a little

devastating, but...

I really didn't even

know the guy.

Yeah.

Listen, Jen,

I...

I wanna say

I'm sorry for, you know...

my wife, Lisa, last night.

It's okay.

She was drunk, I understand.

Hm, actually, no, she wasn't.

No, she didn't even

have a drink.

Babe...

I tried to call you last night

but you didn't answer.

I'm sorry, I lost my phone.

What are you doin'?

I don't know, I just...

I thought we had a moment there.

Didn't you?

You want me to kiss you?

No, I don't think

I gave you that signal.

Oh, come on, Sean!

We have so much more chemistry

than you and Lisa.

You know that.

-I'm your work wife.

-Okay, you know what?

-I know you want me!

-Stop.

Jen, come on,

I am married, okay?

I'm not gonna go

and cheat on my wife.

You already have.

What are you talking about?

I see the way you look at me.

You have lust

in your heart, Sean.

And that's cheating.

But that's okay.

We could be

the ultimate power couple.

Come on, Sean! Please.

You know you want me, I don't

know why you're playing games.

No, I don't.

My God.

You know what? You're...

You're certifiable.

Well, I know she's

been here longer than I have

but I really feel

that you need to let her go.

Don't you feel you should

take some responsibility

for what's been

going on between you two?

Absolutely not.

You've not lead her on at all?

No, I'm married.

Come on, Sean.

I've seen the two

of you together.

You do not act like

a married man around her.

I'm a social guy,

Katie.

I like to have fun.

Look... you're a man.

I know too well

what men are like.

In fact,

my husband cheated on me.

And I kicked his arse

right out of that door.

Okay, please don't

take this personal

but just because your husband

cheated on you

that doesn't mean all men cheat.

Frankly, yes.

Well, I don't.

Yes, you do.

I've seen the way

you look at her.

You're just as responsible.

And as her superior,

you should've done something

to stop that behavior.

Okay, you know, I-I don't know

what's going on around here,

but ever since I've got here,

it feels like

every woman's out to get me.

Maybe it's time for a little

introspection, Mr. Miller.

Honestly...

the only reason

why you're still here

is because

of the Gin Tonic account.

Feels a little slimy

to be used, doesn't it?

Well... welcome

to a woman's world.

Thanks for comin'.

Yeah.

All right, I'm-I'm just gonna

jump right into this.

Jen, I-I wanna apologize.

I really...

I really need to take

some responsibility

for what happened between us.

I know I blamed

everything on you

and I should've

just kept our relationship

strictly business.

Jen, I love my wife. Okay?

And having said that...

I'm leaving the company.

And I would appreciate it

if you not

contact me when I leave, okay?

You're quitting?

-Yeah.

-Because of me?

I think it's best.

I mean, Katie thinks

I'm partially responsible

so I think it's best

for everyone.

Well, you are responsible.

I mean, you're my superior

and you've been hitting on me

since the moment we met.

-No, I haven't.

-Yes, you have, Sean.

Don't play stupid.

We both know how much

you want me.

I could've had you

in my bed anytime I wanted.

You were so weak.

You know what, Jen?

You're right.

I'm weak.

All men are weak.

That's why I'm quitting, okay?

And I'm sure Katie's

gonna give you my job

so, congrats on the promotion.

No!

If you leave, I swear to God

I'll make things a lot worse.

-Are you threatening me?

-No, Sean.

I'm doing this

because I love you.

I'll tell Katie about

how you stole Ray's notes.

-I didn't steal Ray's notes.

-Yes, you did, Sean.

Yes, you did, you walked

right into his office

and you stole them.

He was your competition,

wasn't he?

Right? Oh!

Oh, oh.

Here's your cellphone,

I copied all the emails

and text messages.

And I have no problem

telling Katie

about all the threatening emails

you've been sending me.

Go ahead, no one's

ever gonna believe you.

And I'll destroy your

relationship with Lisa.

How could you even say

something like that?

Maybe if she's finally

out of the picture,

we can be together.

You know what, Jen?

You're really sad.

I'm outta here.

-He's quitting.

-Good.

We've had nothing but trouble

ever since he showed up here.

I'm sorry I even hired him.

Are you done?

Oh, yeah.

Look, d-don't worry,

at least

we'll have your severance

to cover us for a while.

Yeah.

Well, you don't get

a severance...

when you quit.

Right.

Hey, this is Ray

and I need to talk to you.

Jen is still here

at the party

and she is drunk

out of her mind.

I just heard her tell somebody

that she set

your house on fire.

Call me back ASAP.

What are you

doing here?

It's after midnight.

I know it's late.

And I'm really sorry.

But I just felt like

you needed to know the truth

as soon as possible.

The truth about what?

The truth about Sean and I.

Can I just come

inside and explain? Please.

Please.

Thank you.

Hi, you've reached Jen.

Leave a message.

Yeah, I figured

I'd get your voicemail again.

It's done, Jen. I've already

filed a police report.

They're picking your ass up

in the morning.

And don't worry about

packing anything, Jen.

They have everything you need,

you're going to jail

for a very long time.

And then he gave me this.

See?

It's engraved.

The hell are you doin' here?

Lisa, stay away from her.

I told her the truth

about us, Sean.

What are you talkin' about?

There is no truth about us, Jen.

Stop lying, Sean.

I'm not lying, nothing happened.

Really?

What about these?

All these emails, texts and IMs.

Look at these, all talking about

how you wanna be with her.

And you got this lovely pen.

"XOXO."

Your lying is all done.

Why'd you do this?

For her, Sean.

So you both

could finally be free.

For us.

It's time for you

to get the hell outta my house.

My... We belong together.

I promise you.

I promise you, Lisa.

Sean!

No! Please.

Sean!

Lisa, she is lying. Okay?

She hacked into my computer.

That pen,

she bought that pen for me.

Stop it, Sean.

No, you listen to me.

I think she's the one that tried

to kill the senior copywriter.

Okay, I was up all night

doin' research.

Sean... Oh, my God.

She is emotionally unhinged

but she's not a murderer.

She tried to

burn down our house!

What? This is absurd!

I've already filed

a police report

and they're picking her up

in the morning.

You've broken my heart.

You've made a fool out of me.

And now I'm done.

I'm getting

the hell outta here.

Well, I'm so glad

you left the house.

Made it really easy for me

to give you

a ride to the office.

Sorry if I was

a little rough on you.

So he's coming.

I just talked to him

and he's coming.

He told me he'd never

hurt you for me.

But he changed his mind.

Did you hear me?

He changed his mind!

I know it sounds crazy...

but I love him.

I do.

I can't help myself.

I fall in love with all

of my bosses.

My father didn't love me.

So I look for it

in men that I work for.

But I promise you,

the feelings are real.

I love him,

and it's real.

You should try

following your

real feelings some day

'cause it's really liberating.

Shoot.

I should go freshen up.

Don't you move.

I love him.

He's mine.

He should be mine.

He'd understand.

Lisa!

No!

No!

No.

No!

Lisa! Lisa!

Sean!

Sean.

Sweetie.

Do you see what I did?

I made it easy for you.

You love me, Sean.

You just needed a little push.

But now you can finish it.

Right?

Come on, honey.

It's locked and loaded.

Just pull the trigger.

Jen, please calm down.

I am calm.

I'm calmer than I've ever been

because I can see your future.

We can run away together.

Just you and me.

Jen, I-I can't do that.

Kill her, Sean!

Kill her.

Or I will kill you both

and make it

look like that you did it.

And you've been sending me

threatening emails for weeks.

It won't be hard to prove.

Right?

Y-you're right.

You're right, Jen, I have...

and I'm sorry.

I should've

said something earlier.

I knew the first time

when I laid eyes on you

that I was

gonna fall in love with you.

I-I don't love her.

I haven't loved her for years.

I'll do it.

How do I know you will?

Just trust me.

Oh, you're so beautiful.

I love you.

Don't move!

-You lied to me!

-No!

Yes! You lied to me.

I was just trying to get

the gun away from you.

You lied to me!

I was trying

to get the...

Honey. Honey!

I got it. Here.

Stop it!

You stop!

Stay back, honey.

Stop, stop.

Think about what you're doing.

I love you, Sean.

I'll shoot you both.

Don't.

Sean?

It's over.

Baby, it's over.

Oh, my God.

Sean?

Yeah, honey.

Did you hear that?

Hear what?

It's just, it's just me.

I'm sorry, I think I'm...

still pretty freaked out

about what happened.

Hey, hey, it's okay.

We're fine.

She's very far away

and she'll never hurt us again.

Any of us.

Come here.

I still can't believe

that bullet didn't

go through her heart.

Well...

it's because she doesn't

have a heart.

Yeah.

-Major kicks.

-Okay, sit down.

-Sit, sit, sit, sit.

-Yeah, let's sit.

It's dancin'.

Prop your foot up here

for me a second.

Okay.

I'm really impressed.

You have made

real progress here.

Thank you, Dr. Larison.

We thought,

with your past experience,

and the kindness that you've

shown to the other patients,

you would work well...

one-on-one, helping people.

So, you'll be here, with me.

So, we'll be working together?

If you like.

Really?

Yes, um,

I'd like that very much.

Thank you, Doctor.

Can I ask you a question?

Of course, Jennifer.

Well, I was wondering...

if while we're working together,

if I...

What? Don't be afraid to ask.

That's why we're here.

Well, I was just wondering

if while we're working together,

if I could...

be your...

My what?

Your work wife.

I feel like you could

really help me,

if it was my job

to support you

and take care of everything

here for you.

For better or for worse.

Well, I don't see why not.

Thank you.
