00:00:03Oh Walter's up five points. Okay, let's see what the press thinks of your strong
00:00:09independent woman campaign. Here we go. Nora West, a career politician with zero
00:00:16family experience telling us how to raise ours. Hashtag vote Walter Kane.
00:00:23Oh this one's brutal. Okay stop. Look I get it. Feminism's dead. Nobody cares
00:00:29about policy. So what are we gonna do now? You want to win that Senate seat, right?
00:00:35Get a family or you could fake one. No, I'm not gonna fake a family for votes. Then
00:00:41start writing your concession speech. Oh, I think of something different.
00:00:55Outlaid sugar? Hi. Nora West, running for senator. I never fucked a senator before.
00:01:08Stop! Get off me! Get off! Let her go.
00:01:17Keep on moving, tough guy.
00:01:22You don't want to do that.
00:01:39Hell no! It's Mad Dog!
00:02:02I'm fine. I'm so sorry. I have everything under patrol. I'm fine.
00:02:21You kissed your hero? Was he hot? Eli, I was assaulted. Right. Sorry. We should file a police report.
00:02:32Walter! Walter! We love you too!
00:02:35Oh, stop. Thank you. Thank you.
00:02:39That's so easy.
00:02:39Oh, fantastic. There we go.
00:02:44Oh my gosh. I love you so much.
00:02:46Good to see you so much.
00:02:48Well,
00:02:51Nora West. You know, most people with your numbers would have bowed out by now.
00:02:56I'm the only thing stopping you from selling out the people of California to your highest donors.
00:03:04The numbers don't want the truth. They want fairy tales.
00:03:08Yeah, smiles, kissing babies, the whole shebang. And what are you offering?
00:03:14Angry, 30-something, can't keep a man.
00:03:23Forget politics. Make some money off your looks.
00:03:26Well, you still got them.
00:03:47Oh no. Nora, what did you do?
00:03:54Get that taken down now!
00:03:57I can't. It's everywhere.
00:04:02You kissed a stranger in a dark alley?
00:04:06The voters are going to think that you're feral. You need a family angle to fix this now.
00:04:11Great, Eli. I can't conjure a family out of thin air.
00:04:23And that's it.
00:04:30You're lucky. You're cute.
00:04:32I thought pink was your favorite color.
00:04:34We're on the clock, princess, huh?
00:04:37Got 10 minutes. Let's go.
00:04:43I'll be right back, sunshine.
00:04:47Wait. He's not going to make you fight again, is he?
00:04:55No way. My pinky promise.
00:05:11I need a raise.
00:05:15Then get back in the ring and fight.
00:05:19You remember him?
00:05:20Huh?
00:05:23You were a king. Now look at you.
00:05:26Mopping, pissing, wearing, I don't know. What is that?
00:05:29Eyeliner?
00:05:31Don't you miss the rush?
00:05:39Make it up!
00:05:40Make it up, make it up, make it up!
00:05:48No.
00:05:50Get back to scrubbing toilets.
00:06:04Put up a damn sign next time, dumbass.
00:06:12Let me help.
00:06:14Uh, what about your math homework?
00:06:17It's done.
00:06:28I'll find you a family.
00:06:30For now, focus on optics.
00:06:32You need to look like you care about cardio.
00:06:34Okay, but I don't.
00:06:36Nobody does.
00:06:37Eli, I gotta call you back.
00:06:40Sweetheart?
00:06:41Hi.
00:06:42Why are you mopping the floor?
00:06:44Shouldn't you be in school?
00:06:45Oh, it's a Saturday.
00:06:46Where are your parents?
00:06:48Dad!
00:06:49Unbelievable!
00:06:51This is child labor!
00:06:53You're exploiting a little girl-
00:07:03You're alright?
00:07:08Hugh.
00:07:10Déjà vu.
00:07:13Don't even think about kissing me again.
00:07:16Uh, you kissed me.
00:07:18That kiss nearly tanked my campaign.
00:07:20Wait, you two kissed?
00:07:21No!
00:07:23So, mop floors by day, play vigilante by night?
00:07:26Oh no, my dad's a professional fighter.
00:07:29But he promised he'd never fight again.
00:07:31Wait, you're her father?
00:07:32How is that even possible?
00:07:34Okay.
00:07:34When a mommy and a daddy love each other very much,
00:07:37they come together like the birds and the bees.
00:07:40Okay, stop.
00:07:42So, you're seriously letting your daughter mop the floors?
00:07:45You do understand that child labor is against the law.
00:07:47She's mopping the floor.
00:07:48She ain't laying bricks.
00:07:50So, is this part of your new strategy to collect votes?
00:07:53Harass the constituents?
00:07:55Excuse me.
00:07:57Yeah.
00:07:58I know who you are.
00:08:00Hey!
00:08:02What, floor?
00:08:04No sign?
00:08:06You're trying to get me sued, aren't you, huh?
00:08:08Get back to work.
00:08:15Wait!
00:08:17I have an offer.
00:08:20How would you like to be my family?
00:08:26I want you two to pretend to be my family just until the election.
00:08:29It'll only be for show.
00:08:31Politics, optics, you know.
00:08:33Come on, kid.
00:08:35This lady's nuts.
00:08:38I'll pay.
00:08:40A lot.
00:08:43So, let me get this straight.
00:08:45You want us to lie to the country?
00:08:47It's not a lie.
00:08:49It's strategic storytelling.
00:08:50You'd be helping your daughter, helping me help yourself.
00:08:53Here, at least just take my card.
00:09:01Good luck with your optics.
00:09:09Wait!
00:09:16Listen, you can't stay.
00:09:18Have new tenants in right now.
00:09:20No, Mike, listen to me, okay?
00:09:21I'll have the money for you tomorrow morning.
00:09:22I swear to you.
00:09:23That's what you said last week, Maddox.
00:09:24I don't run a charity.
00:09:25Look, look.
00:09:27We got nowhere else to go, man.
00:09:29Don't make me call the cops.
00:09:32No, no, Mike.
00:09:33Mike, Mike, Mike, please!
00:09:38It's okay, Dad.
00:09:39A home isn't a place.
00:09:42It's you and me.
00:10:10I'm calling about your offer.
00:10:16I thought about what you said.
00:10:20And I need the money.
00:10:22Fast.
00:10:24For my daughter.
00:10:30There's a championship bout.
00:10:32Next month.
00:10:34I can't risk getting hurt.
00:10:36I'm the only family Sky has.
00:10:38Relax.
00:10:39It's staged.
00:10:40You take a fall in round five.
00:10:42No hits, no pain.
00:10:43Just lights, crowds, cash.
00:10:46You'll walk away rich.
00:10:47People will pay a lot of money to see the unbeatable mad dog go down.
00:10:55I have to think about it.
00:10:56Hey, you're the one who came to me, kid.
00:10:58Tell my friends you're interested.
00:10:59But don't take too long.
00:11:01They're not the patient type.
00:11:17Being brave means doing the hard thing.
00:11:19And who told you that?
00:11:21You did, Daddy.
00:11:29Keep your guard up.
00:11:32Uh, go get a snack in the locker room, honey, okay?
00:11:38Hey, no sweets.
00:11:40Are you sure?
00:11:42Yes, I'm sure.
00:11:44Go.
00:12:01Hello?
00:12:08We'll do it.
00:12:10But I've got conditions.
00:12:11No love.
00:12:12No feelings.
00:12:14No kissing.
00:12:15And no sex.
00:12:17And Sky's safety comes first above anything else.
00:12:19Always.
00:12:20You cross that line.
00:12:21And I'm out.
00:12:34Hi.
00:12:35I haven't been fully honest with the public.
00:12:39The man I kissed in that video wasn't a stranger.
00:12:44He was my husband.
00:12:48And this, this is my daughter.
00:12:51My family.
00:12:54Kiss.
00:12:57Kiss.
00:12:59Kiss.
00:13:00Kiss.
00:13:01Kiss.
00:13:20Well, well.
00:13:23A family woman now, huh?
00:13:26Cute press conference.
00:13:28Shame it's all bullshit.
00:13:29Oh, please, Walter.
00:13:31You lie for a living.
00:13:33You wouldn't recognize the truth if it smacked you in the face.
00:13:36This isn't a dollhouse, sweetie.
00:13:39This is real politics.
00:13:41Little girls playing house like you don't belong here.
00:13:45I'm warning you.
00:13:46I'm gonna chew you up and spit you out.
00:13:50Honey?
00:13:52Is he bothering you?
00:13:55A little.
00:13:58Fine, fine.
00:14:00Why don't we make it official?
00:14:01Public dinner.
00:14:03All of us, tonight.
00:14:04At your place, where I'm sure you live like a happy family.
00:14:08We'd be delighted.
00:14:21Okay, we need to sell this fully, which means you're moving in tonight.
00:14:32We live here now?
00:14:38Wow.
00:14:52You live here all by yourself?
00:14:56Must get lonely.
00:14:59Did you bring what I asked?
00:15:01Yeah.
00:15:13Oh, is that a photo of your wife?
00:15:17Uh, used to be.
00:15:28Wow.
00:15:29My house is officially a mess.
00:15:32Yeah.
00:15:33Welcome to the club.
00:15:35Oh, uh, Miss Nora?
00:15:38Sweetie.
00:15:39So, just remember, you're supposed to call me mom in public now, okay?
00:15:42Okay.
00:15:43Um, it's just your dress.
00:15:47Oh, shit.
00:15:48I mean, I'm so sorry.
00:15:50Damn it.
00:15:50Fuck.
00:15:51I'm so sorry.
00:15:52I'm so sorry.
00:15:52I'm going to go change, okay?
00:15:58Where do you think this should go?
00:16:03Nora?
00:16:03Nora?
00:16:10Oh, my God!
00:16:17Um.
00:16:19Oh, my God.
00:16:21I am so sorry.
00:16:23I was just, um, I thought that, um, I'll just go.
00:16:28Wait.
00:16:30Hold on.
00:16:30Can you help me?
00:16:31I can't reach this and we're way past.
00:16:34I can't reach this and we're way past the Dignity Line.
00:16:38Please.
00:17:03Thanks.
00:17:05Could you?
00:17:10Okay, you can go now, Luke.
00:17:12Right.
00:17:17Oh, my God.
00:17:30Dad, seriously, close your mouth.
00:17:32Okay, flashcard time.
00:17:34We need to be airtight.
00:17:36Walter's out for blood and this covers our story of how we met, first vacation, Skye's favorite color, fake pet
00:17:42names.
00:17:42Uh, we met at a mutual friend's fundraiser, first date, uh, food truck and jazz in the park.
00:17:55Nicknames.
00:17:57No way.
00:17:59What is it?
00:18:01What is it?
00:18:01Say it with some conviction.
00:18:03Snuggle bear.
00:18:05Really?
00:18:06It tested well with voters.
00:18:12He's here early.
00:18:13We have to improvise.
00:18:15Mr. Payne.
00:18:16Mr. Payne.
00:18:18Mr. Payne.
00:18:31Mr. Walter, I drew you a picture.
00:18:37Oh, adorable.
00:18:45So, how did you two meet?
00:18:49Food truck and jazz in the park.
00:18:53Huh.
00:18:54And how long have you been together?
00:18:56Seven years.
00:18:57Nine years.
00:18:59Well, I guess time flies when you're pretending.
00:19:04In which school does the little actress go to?
00:19:07Oh.
00:19:07Not you.
00:19:08I was asking your mommy.
00:19:11Okay.
00:19:15Oak Ridge Elementary.
00:19:17Hmm.
00:19:18Well, what do you say we double-checked that?
00:19:21Huh?
00:19:25Oh, Jesus.
00:19:26I'm so sorry.
00:19:27Jesus.
00:19:27I, uh, here.
00:19:28I...
00:19:37Well, I'm exhausted.
00:19:38I'm very tired.
00:19:40What a day.
00:19:41I think it's time we go to bed.
00:19:43Let's go, sweetheart.
00:19:47Good job.
00:19:48Good job.
00:19:53Let's skip the BS.
00:20:00We both know your husband acts fake.
00:20:02And whatever Nora's paying you, I'll double it.
00:20:07All you have to do is step outside and tell them the truth.
00:20:24This check could solve all of our problems.
00:20:31Well, that was a waste of a night.
00:20:34But before I go, I'll give you one last chance to confess and save face.
00:20:40I have nothing to confess.
00:20:43Huh.
00:20:44And what about you, Mr. Nora West?
00:20:48Presses right outside.
00:20:54Apparently, dinner's on Walter tonight.
00:20:56You know, I actually prefer it this way.
00:20:59More of a challenge.
00:21:01My mom always told me not to play with my food, but sometimes I just can't help myself.
00:21:08You and I, Nora, we both know there's a lot more going on here.
00:21:14Me, see I.
00:21:22You really don't learn, do you?
00:21:24I'm going to take you down.
00:21:27I got this.
00:21:32You want to know why I'm doing this, Walter?
00:21:36Because men like you have always tried to control women.
00:21:40At home, in politics, behind office doors, slapping your assistant's ass like it's all part of the job.
00:21:48But once I'm sworn in, that ends.
00:21:52Every lie, every threat, you'll answer for all of it.
00:21:58Everybody's having something, right?
00:22:00You chose this.
00:22:01And you're going down with the ship, lover boy.
00:22:17I'll take her home.
00:22:18No, don't be ridiculous.
00:22:19Just stay the night.
00:22:20No, you've already done way too much for us.
00:22:21No, it's fine to sleep.
00:22:23No, it's...
00:22:24I can take her.
00:22:27Just...
00:22:37Thank you for not taking the check.
00:22:40I don't break my word.
00:22:42You let me know if he tries anything else.
00:22:45Do you want to sleep in the bed?
00:22:48The guest room.
00:22:51Private bed.
00:22:52Alone.
00:22:52Separate.
00:22:52Not together.
00:23:00It's okay.
00:23:01I have a night shift.
00:23:03I'll be back in the morning.
00:23:04Toilets won't clean themselves, right?
00:23:07I'm so sorry.
00:23:11Would you look after Skye while I'm gone?
00:23:14Yeah, sure.
00:23:20Oh, my God.
00:23:21I am an idiot.
00:23:30I don't want you to feel lonely anymore.
00:23:41Blanket?
00:23:42Get cozy.
00:23:44Yeah.
00:23:45Yeah.
00:23:47Yeah.
00:23:53One, one, two.
00:23:54Low five.
00:23:56Nice.
00:23:56All right, give me ten more reps.
00:23:57Nice.
00:23:58Good job.
00:24:13Easy.
00:24:14You're all right.
00:24:17Focus.
00:24:18She's the client.
00:24:19You're on the clock, not on a date.
00:24:31Stop.
00:24:34When are the pills of the fat one?
00:24:56Forget it, Nora.
00:24:58You're okay.
00:25:00He has his life, you have yours.
00:25:02You've got an election to win.
00:25:16You've got an election to win.
00:25:38Shh.
00:25:39If you wake Skye and she hears us...
00:25:44What the...
00:25:47Ms. West, everything okay?
00:25:50Yes!
00:25:52Um, shampoo bottle just fell.
00:25:55Real slippery one.
00:25:58Uh, okay.
00:26:01I'll be on in a minute!
00:26:05Oh, can you ask Dad if we can have pancakes for breakfast after he picks up the shampoo bottle?
00:26:12Yeah, sure, kiddo.
00:26:13Yeah, pancakes coming right up.
00:26:31There's not a shampoo explosion in there, is there?
00:26:34No, no, no, no!
00:26:36No, no, no!
00:26:36It's fine.
00:26:37On the side.
00:26:37It's fine.
00:26:41Okay.
00:26:42Okay.
00:26:43Bye.
00:26:48Yeah.
00:26:57So, any cute boys at school?
00:27:00Mmm, maybe.
00:27:03Since when?
00:27:05Okay.
00:27:06What's his name?
00:27:07Is he cute?
00:27:08Jeff.
00:27:09Yeah.
00:27:10I mean, he shares his snacks with me.
00:27:12Oh.
00:27:12Okay, now that, that is true love.
00:27:15Yeah, for my dead body.
00:27:19Pulling Walter, that was the easy part.
00:27:21The real fight is going to be convincing the entire state.
00:27:24Hmm.
00:27:25Spoken like a true politician.
00:27:27Hmm.
00:27:28But, let's worry about enough of these guys at school.
00:27:32Oh, take her today.
00:27:33I owe you.
00:27:37I was thinking like, oh my gosh.
00:27:39Poor kid.
00:27:40Looks like those clothes came straight from a dumpster.
00:27:43Oh, I wouldn't be surprised if we get a life snow this next week.
00:27:46I mean, her dad sleeps in the locker room.
00:27:53Geez.
00:27:54No longer allowed to attend school here.
00:27:57I'm sorry, what?
00:28:00Excuse me, what's going on here?
00:28:01I'm sorry.
00:28:02But Skye can't come inside today.
00:28:04Her account is still unpaid.
00:28:06Seriously?
00:28:07We've reached out numerous times.
00:28:11I'm sorry.
00:28:12But there's nothing I can do until the balance has been cleared.
00:28:15Poor kid.
00:28:15I knew something was off.
00:28:17It's the dad, isn't it?
00:28:18It's rubbed off on them.
00:28:20You two want to run your mouth somewhere else?

00:51:18What the hell?
00:51:22What the hell was that, Mad Ox?
00:51:24Huh?
00:51:25You went off script.
00:51:26Yeah, so did your guy.
00:51:27His gloves are loaded.
00:51:29You have no idea who's watching this.
00:51:32People with a lot of cash and a lot of power,
00:51:35and they don't like surprises, alright?
00:51:37Trust me.
00:51:38You don't want them turning their attention to you, Luke.
00:51:45That's mad dog to you.
00:51:47Yeah, Luke!
00:51:48Keep it up!
00:51:48No!
00:51:48No!
00:51:51Oh no!
00:51:54No!
00:51:55No!
00:52:07No!
00:52:08No!
00:52:09No!
00:52:09What?
00:52:13Yeah, Luke, keep it up!
00:52:17Woo!
00:52:19Now this is a show!
00:52:21You know, you're welcome to hate the guy across from you.
00:52:24But you might want to save some of that for the woman cheering behind you.
00:52:32I'll save you the time.
00:52:34Insurance rejection, treatment denial.
00:52:37Signed and sealed by none other than Nora West.
00:52:40Your supposed family.
00:52:43Oh, and oh yeah, she knew.
00:52:44I found these in her office.
00:52:47She let your wife die and still showed up playing family.
00:53:16No!
00:53:18No!
00:53:27Luke, Luke, Luke, Luke, Luke, Luke!
00:53:31Somebody help!
00:53:37You promised you wouldn't get hurt.
00:53:40Come here, baby.
00:53:42You can't go, not like Mom.
00:53:45Please.
00:53:46I know, everything's gonna be okay.
00:53:48I'm here, we're together.
00:53:51He's gonna get better, all right?
00:53:53I promise.
00:53:59You are?
00:54:01His wife.
00:54:03The scans show a cerebral hemorrhage,
00:54:05bleeding in the brain.
00:54:07We've stabilized him, but he's in a coma.
00:54:10So, what do we do now?
00:54:11Right now, all we can do is wait.
00:54:24I've been trying to reach you.
00:54:25The debate is tomorrow.
00:54:26Are you still trying to be senator or what?
00:54:32We'll be ready.
00:54:40We'll be ready.
00:54:44Mr. Kane, your response to Miss West's education plan?
00:54:49Very ambitious.
00:54:51For someone who clearly has no idea what she's talking about.
00:54:54We need real policy, not idiotic idealism.
00:54:59If ambition scares you, Mr. Kane, maybe you're in the wrong race.
00:55:04I believe in reform that uplifts every family, not just my opponent and his friends.
00:55:15Speaking of family, I'm truly sorry to hear about Mr. West.
00:55:22It takes real strength to be here while he's fighting for his life.
00:55:26And that deserves our respect, huh?
00:55:33Taking care of a child while her father is practically dead.
00:55:37It's so hard for you to keep your family stable.
00:55:40Can you really lead this state on your own?
00:55:43He's not dead!
00:55:48Of course, of course not, no.
00:55:50But maybe this is an opportunity for you to focus on what's really important.
00:55:54Your daughter.
00:55:55And when I'm re-elected, I promise to fight for single mothers.
00:56:00Just like you.
00:56:03Miss West, your response?
00:56:12That concludes our debate.
00:56:23Hi, baby.
00:56:25Are you okay?
00:56:27Yeah.
00:56:29Yeah.
00:56:30Yeah.
00:56:31Mm-hmm.
00:56:33Yeah.
00:56:34Tough night.
00:56:35But you held your ground.
00:56:37And you, you're a brave little girl, just like your mommy.
00:56:41Don't touch her.
00:56:43Relax.
00:56:44Just being friendly.
00:56:46You know, my offer still stands.
00:56:50When this is all over, I want you on my team.
00:56:53I already have a position in mind.
00:56:57You son of a...
00:57:01Leave us alone.
00:57:03Come on.
00:57:09Run a DNA test.
00:57:12Quietly.
00:57:16Sheep in a heap.
00:57:17Sheep in a heap.
00:57:18Sheep weep.
00:57:20Sheep sweep the heap.
00:57:22Jeep for sale.
00:57:24Sheep.
00:57:26It's your favorite.
00:57:28Remember?
00:57:35All right, kiddo.
00:57:37Time for homework.
00:57:43Yeah.
00:57:52Luke.
00:57:53You made a promise.
00:57:56Please.
00:57:58I'm begging you.
00:58:00Please.
00:58:00You have to come back.
00:58:02I can't do this without you.
00:58:06Luke.
00:58:09Luke.
00:58:10Luke.
00:58:13Oh, my God.
00:58:14Luke, you're awake.
00:58:16You came back.
00:58:19Hi.
00:58:20Hi.
00:58:22Skye.
00:58:24She's here.
00:58:24She didn't leave your side.
00:58:29Neither did you.
00:58:30She's been reading to you every night.
00:58:34Is it true, Nora?
00:58:36Walter said that you signed the insurance denial.
00:58:38The one that killed my wife.
00:58:42Dad!
00:58:43Hey, baby.
00:58:44Hey, baby.
00:58:48You promised you wouldn't get hurt.
00:58:50I know.
00:58:50I'm sorry.
00:58:52Listen, I heard your voice.
00:58:54It brought me back.
00:58:57Luke.
00:58:58Walter wasn't lying.
00:59:03You, uh...
00:59:06You killed her.
00:59:10I'm so sorry.
00:59:12But, um, for what it's worth, back then, the higher-ups, they had to be signing all of
00:59:18these contracts for them.
00:59:19And it was their way of dodging all responsibility.
00:59:23I just signed what I was told to sign.
00:59:27I'll stay out of your lives from now on.
00:59:34Don't go.
00:59:37I can't put you and Skye in danger.
00:59:44You!
00:59:48I have to do this...
00:59:51Alone.
00:59:52No, you don't.
00:59:54You don't have to do anything alone.
01:00:13Okay.
01:00:16I'm gonna send you her sweetheart.
01:00:18I don't even own a horse.
01:00:21Is it true that Nora has a daughter?
01:00:27There's something I need to confess.
01:00:33Apologies for the delay.
01:00:35My wife and I are very happy to be here.
01:00:43If your mom becomes a senator, you won't be seeing much of her.
01:00:46I guess that's fine.
01:00:47I mean, I'll just have my people call her people,
01:00:50and, you know, we'll fit a time in our busy schedules for dinner.
01:00:55Okay, we might actually pull this out.
01:00:59Quite the performance.
01:01:01Since tonight is about truth and leadership,
01:01:05I have something important to share with the room.
01:01:10This DNA test proves that Skymatics is not biologically related
01:01:16to Nora West.
01:01:19Nora, is this true?
01:01:21Yes, it's true.
01:01:22Sky is not my biological daughter.
01:01:25And there it is.
01:01:26The truth.
01:01:28Finally.
01:01:29This was never about public service.
01:01:31This was a stunt.
01:01:33A manipulative lie to win votes.
01:01:35He's right.
01:01:37Nora is not Sky's biological mother.
01:01:40Yeah.
01:01:42But she's the one that Sky deserves.
01:01:45A mother isn't just someone who gives birth.
01:01:47It's the person who stays.
01:01:50Who shows up.
01:01:51Who puts the kid first every single time.
01:01:55Yeah, Walter.
01:01:56Nora is my mommy.
01:01:59Touching.
01:02:00But this isn't about bedtime stories.
01:02:03This is about leadership.
01:02:05About responsibility.
01:02:07About honor.
01:02:09Honor, you say, huh?
01:02:10I'm glad you brought that up.
01:02:12Let's talk about honor.
01:02:17Breaking news.
01:02:19Senatorial candidate Walter Cain
