$50 million, it's the largest donation in ACC history.

We can discuss more in-person.

I will see you in Paris.

Paris?

My meeting just pushed.

It's a total power move.

Sophie Arnaud is famous for it.

You're reconnecting with three exes

because your late mom is sending you on a quest to find love?

My sister makes it sound really weird

when she talks about it, too.

I don't know if there's a way to make

it sound normal, Martin.

You ask a lot of questions.

Only when I like someone.

It has been a while since I liked a guy.

You really like this French guy, huh?

I have a surprise planned.

You were right.

Everyone wants something.

Goodbye, Sebastian.

OK, wait.

I can't imagine wanting anything else in the world

while you're in that dress.

What happened next--

well, this part is hard to talk about.

But I promised you the whole truth, Knightly, all of it,

even when it hurts.

I think about the first day we met more often than I should.

Yeah, we rock and roll

Volume overdose

Get up, hit the road

Tick, tick, tick

Yeah, go boom

These videos are everywhere.

He started a viral campaign.

Got hundreds of thousands of people to participate.

Cool.

I'm glad you think so.

He starts today.

Wait, what?

I think we always collaborate on new hires.

There's a synergy to my team.

Can I meet him before this is finalized?

I'm so sorry.

I should have been clearer.

He's not on your team.

He'll be a senior Director of Major Gifts, just like you.

You'll be partners moving forward.

Partners?

Partners?

I've never had a partner in this role.

We're growing.

It's a good thing.

Why wasn't I consulted?

Well, it all moves so fast.

We don't wanna lose him.

And he had offers from several marketing firms,

including one from Google.

It's a huge win for the ACC.

Is it?

I just don't see how his experience translates here.

People like him.

Sir, I think this is unnecessary.

I have singlehandedly tripled our yearly intake

since I've been in this role.

No one's denying your effectiveness.

Apparently, it's not enough.

Now we're bringing in some flashy guy

with a nice face and mediocre dancing skills,

as if he's gonna somehow do anything

to add value to the department that I have created?

Ouch!

I kind of thought my dancing skills were pretty good.

Jason.

I'm so sorry.

This is not how I envisioned you two meeting.

Why don't you go smooth things over with your new partner?

Of course.

Don't worry.

I also heard you say I had a nice face.

Do you always eavesdrop on people's meetings?

You always as threatened by new colleagues?

I'm not threatened. I'm just--

Competitive.

OK, I like a little friendly competition.

Why don't we see who can pull in more donations this quarter?

Is this is a game to you?

OK, because the ACC is not trendy.

It's not gonna make you rich.

And the work we do here, it's life or death for the people

we help.

Are you afraid of losing?

No, absolutely not.

So we're on then.

Do you like being humiliated or something?

Oh, we're on.

CHELSEA MARTIN: OK.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

Excuse me.

OK, why don't we-- why don't we grab a drink and get to know

each other better, all right?

Maybe start over.

CHELSEA MARTIN Believe

it or not, I wanted to say yes.

My nice face comment wasn't a lie.

No one had caught my eye in years.

And it scared me.

It's not really my scene.

I didn't suggest a place.

I know.

CHELSEA MARTIN I can't

help wondering what might have happened if I had the guts

to go with you that day.

Would we still have been rivals all those years?

What? No, no.

You can have it.

Take it.

I mean, would it be crazy if we

ordered another plate of fries?

You want another plate of fries?

Oh, I mean--

For you.

Beat you to it.

CHELSEA MARTIN All I know is

I wouldn't take any of it back.

Not the bickering, not Paris, not a single second of it,

Knightly.

You are and always will be my biggest what if.

Don't get me wrong

If I'm looking kind of dazzled

I see neon lights

Whenever you walk by

Don't get me wrong

If I'm acting so distracted

I'm thinking 'bout the fireworks

That go off when you smile

My night was dangerously

close to ending in disaster.

Thank you for saving it.

Oh, you saved my night, too.

The Sox were down in the sixth.

White or Red?

Martin.

I don't do sports ball stuff.

How have you lived your whole life in Boston?

I don't know, a little willful ignorance

and a touch of rebellion.

Mm.

So, did they win?

I haven't looked.

Well, don't let me keep you from finding out.

So I know how important this stuff is to you people.

Nah, you're not keeping me from anything.

So you're one of those?

You're gonna go back and you're gonna watch on a delay

the whole thing in your room.

Guilty.

I mean, between us, I don't even

really hate baseball that much.

I just kind of like getting a rise out of sports fans.

Well, your secret's safe with me.

So have you heard from the third guy?

Hmm?

There were three of them, right?

The whole gap year thing?

Oh, yeah, Marcos.

No, he hasn't written back yet.

Things between us didn't end so--

well, honestly, they never really ended.

I sort of just ghosted him.

Man, what did he do?

When I got the call that my mom was sick, I packed my bags

and I left Spain with no explanation.

I never returned a single one of his phone calls.

And it wasn't him.

He was-- he was amazing.

He was great.

It was me.

I was a real mess.

Can I admit something awful?

Please.

I'm jealous.

Hmm?

The way you talk about your mom, the relationship

you two had.

If she were here now, she would have totally adopted you.

Like she did with all of our friends.

Oh, friends, huh?

Are we not?

What?

Aidan.

It is really-- you know, it's normal business hours in Boston.

Yeah, I guess the meeting is on tomorrow, 11:00 AM, Apolline

office with Sophie Arnaud.

Great.

Great.

After you, yeah.

He almost kissed you?

But then he didn't.

Maybe I read it wrong.

But you wanted him to kiss you?

I-- ugh, don't know what I want.

No, I do know what I want.

I wanna hear all about your date.

You know what hurling is?

I just found out at Declan's game.

It is pretty brutal.

He's icing his jaw as we speak.

Wait, you're with him right now?

Why are you talking to me? Go have fun.

Because you need me.

You don't know what you want because feeling again is scary.

OK, therapizing.

ANNABELLE MARTIN Yeah.

OK, stop using me to avoid your date.

You stayed in Ireland for him.

Give him a chance.

Therapizing.

I know.

But isn't it fun that I can do it back now.

I'm going.

OK.

So how bad is it?

Ooh, I like having a pretty woman concerned for me.

I should get hit in the head more often.

Seems like hurling is maybe not

the best hobby for someone who's trying to get into law school.

Ah, well, you know, it's fun.

I work to live, not the other way around.

You don't feel that way?

I never really thought about it before.

When I played soccer, it was wrapped up

in every part of my life, fun, relationship,

career, all tied together.

Until it wasn't.

And after I got hurt, I--

I did a lot of work in therapy to start over.

And I love my new career path.

But the rest--

Something's missing?

I'm realizing that

I don't even have any hobbies.

Oh, sure you do.

You still follow soccer. Watch the games.

- That counts for something. - It's not a hobby.

That's masochism.

Uh.

So there's a story there?

Mm-hmm.

Well, then let's find you a hobby.

OK.

What do you recommend?

Thank you for bringing my jacket.

Although, I could have gotten it tonight.

Tonight?

Yeah, when we celebrate our Apolline victory.

What happens if we don't close it?

Martin, we will close it.

So tonight?

OK, tonight.

Sorry.

Let's go.

Game face, Martin.

Wow.

This is money money.

Oh, yeah.

Hi.

We have an appointment.

Jason Knightly?

Yes, we're here.

I was told it was only one.

No, no, there's two of us, Jason Knightly and

Chelsea Martin.

Ms. Martin is not on the list.

Oh, there must have been a mistake.

I will let them know.

Follow me, please.

OK, that was strange.

Well, it's-- people make mistakes.

It's a language barrier.

Don't let it get in your head, Martin.

Yeah.

Please.

Oh.

Oh!

Candice, you came too?

Hi, it's Chelsea.

Chelsea.

We're so happy to meet with all of you today.

This is Jason Knightly, my colleague.

Please, sit.

OK.

- Yeah, it's fine. - Yeah?

Of course.

Yeah, yeah.

I heard wonderful things about you, Jason.

Well, I've heard about 50 million good things about you.

I work very closely with Martin, or Chelsea.

And I know she's giving you a comprehensive presentation

on what we do at the ACC.

Yeah.

So we're happy to provide more data.

I think we're well covered there.

Thank you.

Well, you flew us across the ocean for this--

for this face-to-face.

I think if you have any reservations,

now's the time for us to quell them and put you at ease.

I am impressed by what you do at the ACC.

Your country leads the world in cancer research

and medical breakthroughs.

But this is a large donation, even for us.

Nobody's disputing--

So I'd like to retain oversight on how

you choose to use the money.

That is-- unfortunately, that's probably

gonna be impossible.

The ACC has a board and a process--

You will be in charge of the donation, though, correct?

Technically--

I want to cut out the middle man, middle woman.

I will handle the distributions of the money myself.

With all due respect, Ms. Arnaud,

I really think you would prefer to have her do it.

I know what I want.

Yes, of course, of course.

Absolutely.

But as CEO of Apolline, you've got your skincare products

to worry about, which includes Apolline,

obviously, but also Sanye, which you've recently

absorbed into your brand.

Not to mention your cosmetics lines,

which lead the industry in name recognition and overall sales.

Both arms need testing, marketing, distribution.

And we haven't even talked about your perfume

line or the hair care line that you're in R&D on.

We are impressed by how much you can cover.

I mean, really, Ms. Arnaud, it's-- we're blown away.

But I think you could admit your focus is fractured.

And this woman right here--

-this woman eats, sleeps, and breathes the ACC.

She knows more about treatment, development,

screening protocols than most oncologists do.

And she's constantly assessing in real time

where each dollar can see the most use.

Why?

Because she cares that much.

She's incredible.

And to be honest, she's actually the reason I work here at all.

Now, I don't have $50 million to play around with,

but I would bet every dollar in my bank account

that Chelsea will not let you down.

OK.

Dinner tonight?

Well, I mean--

We will discuss over dinner.

I'll have my assistant reach out.

Thank you.

Don't worry.

Celebration is still on after dinner.

OK.

Thank you. Yep.

What just happened?

Looks like we got

another hoop to jump through.

I mean, but the entire meeting was just bizarre.

The way she was trying to cut me out and gain full control?

And then you-- you saved it.

Hey, they were your words.

I listened to the pitch.

Well, I-- I mean it.

You were amazing.

I owe you one.

Hey, that's what I'm here for, right?

I'm the-- I'm the schmoozer.

You said you wanted to know what Sophie Arnaud wants.

And I will-- I will admit, she's a bit of a hard read.

But I think she respects passion.

Is that why you came up with the whole thing

about me being the reason you joined the ACC?

Because that was genius.

I didn't make that up.

Knightly, what are you--

come on.

We met on your first day.

No, you met me on my first day.

That wasn't the first time I saw you.

What are you talking about?

I was at Mass Gen. My sister just

twisted her ankle at a game.

She got sent to the ER.

And obviously I was worried sick.

And in storms this woman.

She goes straight to the front desk, cuts the line even,

and she orders them to send a patient from the ER

up to oncology for special treatment.

All approved by the ACC.

You.

I mean, you-- you had this fire.

And it wasn't just about how passionate you were

or how you wouldn't take no for an answer.

It was because you cared about that patient.

And you cared about the work.

Knightly--

I didn't--

I didn't know that was possible.

I didn't have models for how to make the world

a better place growing up.

So seeing you, you know, just made me--

anyway, I called the ACC the next day

to see if they had an opening.

I had no idea.

Well, you couldn't.

I never told you.

Oh, then I was so mean to you when you first started.

The whole time, let's be real.

What?

Can I be honest with you, Martin?

When are we ever not honest with each other?

I like you mean.

You do?

Yeah, fighting with you is fun.

Keeps me on my toes.

Plus, I know you'll always tell me the truth.

So don't get all soft because you're falling for me.

Whoa!

Why would you say that?

Your face.

You have one of those conditions where you misread

people's facial expressions.

No, I'm not talking about your poor attempt at a scowl.

I'm talking about this.

Blush doesn't lie, Martin.

But that's OK because I think I'm falling for you, too.

Uh--

Right.

I'm gonna to play a purple Martin in your honor.

And you should know that this counts towards the end

of the round gold.

I don't remember what that is.

Annabelle, we've been over it.

Every round has a different objective.

I believe you.

Maybe if you focus on the game and not your phone

for 5 minutes.

I'm sorry.

Look, I've gotta know, what's the deal

with you and Real Madrid?

You say it's not your hobby, but you can't miss a minute.

So tell me what the slug is again?

Invertebrate.

Don't change the subject on me.

OK, fine.

You're right.

I was engaged to one of the players.

What?

It was years ago, a lifetime ago.

There was only one American on Real Madrid.

Who isn't really important.

Are you telling me that you almost married the Ryland Reese?

And he wasn't the Ryland Reese back then, OK?

We were-- we were young.

It was before I got hurt.

I told you, soccer was wrapped up in every part of my life.

I know the thing that's missing in your life.

It's him.

No, it is not like that.

It's-- it's more that I haven't fallen for anyone since him.

But I want to.

I date.

I put an effort.

Oh, come on.

You still watch his games.

When we were together, we were both so invested

in each other's careers.

It would feel wrong to stop cheering him on.

I like you, Declan.

But you're not gonna fall for me, or learn this game.

I can put more effort in.

It's grand.

Chelsea, I'm glad you called.

I wanted to recommend a cafe.

The best matcha in Paris.

OK, Aidan, please stop vamping.

Sophie Arnaud wanted me off the account.

You sent Knightly here to replace me.

I thought you two were finally getting along.

That's not-- that's not the point.

She wants full control of the fund's usage.

I mean, she blindsided us.

From where I'm sitting, it looks

like you two got the client to agree to dinner tonight.

Did she want me off the account?

She did.

But why?

All that matters now is getting

her to commit to the donation.

Maybe I should sit out the dinner.

No, the board is watching this one closely, Chelsea.

It's your account.

It's important you see it through to the final signing.

Is something wrong?

We're under a lot of pressure.

The whole world is getting squeezed.

We're no different.

But our programs aren't in jeopardy, right?

We can discuss potential changes if they arise.

They can't pull patients mid-treatment, can they?

No one is saying that.

Just-- just get the donation tonight, OK?

Yeah.

Judging by the neighborhood, at least

the restaurant will be nice.

What's going on?

You're so quiet.

OK, I think--

I think we should learn from this morning's meeting.

You should do most of the talking.

I mean, we know she likes you better anyway.

Oh, you just haven't shown her your passionate side yet.

There's too much at stake here to risk me,

you know, blowing it.

Apparently, us closing this donation

is kind of make or break it for the ACC.

And I-- Relax.

It's OK.

We're gonna close it.

I'm just not gonna talk.

I'm just gonna listen.

If you say so.

And please, let there be food.

It's dinner.

OK.

So this is the address.

Huh.

Maybe dinner means something else in French?

Is she messing with us?

How do we know that's even--

what?

OK.

Thank you.

Guess this is the place.

Welcome, Chelsea, Jason.

So this is Pascal, my husband.

So nice to meet you.

Enchanté.

And your dog.

So nice to finally see your dog.

Did you invite us into your home?

Because I would have loved to have known that.

I would have brought something.

Oh, then we would have been off on the wrong foot.

I doubt an American can choose the right bottle of wine.

Hey, now.

That's probably fair.

Please, sit.

All right.

Oh, thank you so much.

Were you lucky enough to try the restaurant Vitoise

when it opened in New York?

No, I heard the reservations were impossible to get.

Yes, the chef is one-of-a-kind talent.

You flatter me, Sophie.

Is that--

No.

We are working on a new venture together.

He agreed to do me this favor so long as you are both open

to trying his latest recipes.

Of course.

That sounds incredible.

No, it's R&D. Sophie is always working on something.

Oh, thank you so much.

Merci.

A few amuses-bouches to get you started.

Merci beaucoup.

Hope you like it, obviously.

Merci.

Do you want some wine?

Yes, please.

Merci.

No, it's a great story.

I must tell you.

You must hear it.

Sophie never plays by the rules.

Did she tell you how she started all this?

- Oh, don't bore them with that. -No, no, no.

They will love it.

She used to go to the department stores

and pretend she worked in one of those stands.

Yeah.

And she would hand out samples tested on the customers

until they realized what she was doing and threw her out.

Oh, no.

Wow.

Sophie never backs down, ever.

Sounds like you and Martin have that in common.

Makes for a fun workplace.

So you do not compromise either?

Not where it matters.

When you love your work, everything matters.

But that is why you and I may not work well together.

I will not change my position on oversight.

Unfortunately, the ACC does have to follow certain rules.

And nobody knows those rules better than Martin.

And if there were anyone who would try to skirt them,

it's definitely this man.

I knew I like him for a reason.

Like I said to you before, Ms. Arnaud, you can trust her.

But it's not about trust.

It's about control.

What you're asking for is--

it's just impossible.

Oh, so I guess we are.

Thank you for dinner.

Yes.

No, it was delicious.

And the food was the best I ever had.

What?

That's it?

You're leaving.

Please sit.

I just don't wanna waste your time, Ms. Arnaud.

Because if control is so important to you,

then I think you are better off making your donation elsewhere.

Because 5 minutes with cancer patients will tell you

control is an illusion.

I have never felt more at sea than the months

after my mom got her diagnosis.

I was looking for signs, looking for logical reasons

why she got sick.

Wondering how it could have been prevented, how I could help her.

And I realized there was no logic.

I couldn't do anything.

Except-- sorry.

Never apologize for your pain.

I'm here because I need my mom's memory to mean something.

And I don't know.

Maybe I've-- maybe I've done that.

But I do know that with every dollar

we secure, with every early diagnosis,

every daughter whose story doesn't have to end the way mine

did.

All of that is part of her legacy now.

And it's a privilege.

And I just won't beg you to be a part of it.

I had a stage I, breast.

I was lucky enough to catch it early and lucky enough

that treatment was successful.

I am so sorry that you went through that.

Yeah, we didn't know.

Of course not.

No one knows.

And no one will, unless you choose to share.

The truth is, I have money and resources, wonderful doctors.

But still, this was out of my control.

And I saw many women who were not so lucky like me.

The ACC leads the global community

in research and innovation.

The screenings you provide, prevention services,

palliative care, everyone should have access to these things.

This donation was never about me or my own self-interests.

It's because events like these make you think

about legacy, like you say.

I want mine to be more than makeup.

Yes.

You did it.

Well, let me tell you, it was all Chelsea.

Hey, we don't do handouts.

Knightly was essential.

He turned a very cold room warm.

Really, we did this together.

What finally won her over?

Well, Martin started talking about how she lost her mom.

It was very emotional.

You lost your mother, Chelsea?

I don't talk about her often.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I didn't realize.

It's fine.

Well, I'll let you two have your night.

When you get back on Monday, we can crack

open another bottle of tea.

Sounds good.

This one's great.

All right.

Now, are you ready to celebrate?

Uh. Oh--

I mean, everyone has to do it at least once.

Great.

All right.

Whew!

There you go. Come on.

Woo!

Thank you.

Merci.

Here we go.

Here we go.

Here we go.

Heaven knows it's high time

I've been waiting on my own too long

When you hold me like you do

Feel so--

I feel like I've worn this more than you lately.

Oh?

I like you in it.

How my heart is

Oh.

-gets thrown

Feeling like you can't go on

Turning circles time again

Cut like a knife

Oh, now

If you love me

Got to know

For sure

'cause it takes something more this time

Sweet, sweet--

Oof.

-come now

This is worth it, right?

You OK?

Yeah, I'm great.

Are you afraid of heights?

Distract me.

How?

Think of something.

Uh, what's your favorite color?

Just answer.

OK, fine, fine.

I don't know.

Red looks pretty good right now.

- Favorite food? - French fries.

You?

Mm, I mean, that's the only correct answer.

Uh, siblings?

Is little Martin the only one?

And you?

Three sisters.

Three sisters?

- Three girls? - Mm-hmm.

What's that like?

Well, at least I had my own room growing up.

First concert?

Eminem.

Really?

I know.

I went through this phase in middle school.

It was a whole thing.

You?

Linkin Park.

Incredible.

Biggest fear?

Failing.

Oh, makes sense for you.

No, it does.

You-- you work so hard.

What about you?

I think it's pretty obvious.

Most important thing in a relationship?

Oh, that's a hard one.

Uh-- probably choosing the right person.

Makes sense.

What about you?

Wanting the same thing.

The women I've dated, gets to a breaking point.

They don't understand why I wanna help my sisters.

You know, for them, it's a financial burden.

But it's not to me.

I mean, family is important.

I like that you help them.

The thing is, Martin, I believe you.

You know, as fun as this is, I think,

in the words of your favorite artist,

my palms are getting a little sweaty.

So maybe we could take this back down to the solid ground.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, of course.

Great.

Let's go.

So what now?

We're celebrating?

Yeah.

What did you have in mind?

I mean, ground level only, promise.

Is everything OK?

You know, when I glanced at your cell phone in the cab,

I noticed that Marcos called.

Yeah, he called before our meeting this morning.

Didn't lie about it or anything.

OK.

Does that bother you?

No.

Maybe.

Why?

Because he's your-- he's your last big what if.

And I don't--

I don't know if--

I didn't even listen to the message.

I didn't even think about it.

And do you wanna know why?

Why?

Because you were right.

I am falling.

Oh, I'm not done kissing you.

Annabelle?

Uh--

Uh-- I'll see you in the morning.

See you tomorrow.

Ooh.

No, I'm over here.

So work dude?

Yeah.

I knew it.

What are you doing here?

What happened with Declan?

Oh, the same as always.

He found out about Ryland?

Yep.

That's not really the problem, is it?

It's when they find out that I still watch his games

and then they assume that I am still in love with him.

I am not still in love with him.

OK.

Yes.

But listen, you-- you lost him, your knee, and your career

all at once.

It is a lot.

Maybe you just haven't had time to process all of it.

Chelsea, we are not the same, OK?

I don't bury my feelings.

I have gone to therapy.

I have faced all of my loss head on.

I am getting a degree in it.

OK, so what is the issue here?

Fear, I guess.

I'm scared I can't love anyone the way I loved him.

It's like you always say about mom and dad.

They were soulmates.

You only get one.

That's-- that's not what I meant.

Yeah, but you believe it, right?

No, but I was talking about dad.

- Not-- not you. - It's all the same.

Either we all get one great love or we don't.

But I guess if dad can find mom

and then Sheri, maybe there's hope for me too.

Maybe I'll get to be greedy enough to find it again.

Or maybe Ryland wasn't your true love.

He was.

And I ruined it.

It's OK.

Is that really what you wore on your date?

I didn't exactly know it was gonna be a date.

At least red is your color.

Hi.

OK, something's wrong.

JASON KNIGHTLY: I

just couldn't sleep last night.

Are you regretting it?

No.

No, never.

Never.

Look, I-- I think you need to go see Marcos.

Knightly--

I'm serious about this.

Look, I'm not falling, Martin.

I've fallen.

I'm flat on my face for you.

I'm thinking about a future that we can build together.

And in that future, there's not a single question

in either of our minds this is what we want.

Are you really gonna say that to me

and push me to see another guy?

Really?

You need closure.

My whole life, my mom told me this story about her and my dad.

About skipping the train for him.

This is my train, Knightly.

Let me skip it.

You don't have to skip anything, OK?

I'm-- I'm in this.

I'll wait.

Little Martin.

Gonna see DG2?

Mm-hmm.

Wanna share a taxi?

Thought you hated me.

Doesn't mean we can't split the cab fare.

Bygones and whatnot.

to picture what our life would have been like if we

had just had the chance to--

You're a brave man.

Not many guys I know would send the woman

She didn't tell you who Marcos Vera is?

Marcos Vera?

The billionaire?

That's her Marcos?

Marcos?

Maybe we both ended up exactly where we're meant to be.

I have been sleepwalking

Where is your

Now you talk

And said I should have seen the signs

But I can never read your mind

Love's just something I get blinded by

God, it happens every time

I'll be like--
