All language subtitles for The Blue Rose s01e10 Handsome Devil.eng

Krystle's on a quest for
ultimate carrer advancement.

Didn't husband-hunting de out
as a sport in the 1950s?!

This isn't a sport.
It's a life plan.

I need to talk to you about
the Cranston matter.

Like Keith Cranston?

The Minister of Energy?

Could be.

You're very welcome to join us.
Can I get you a drink?

No.

Well, we're all friends of Peterson.

Today is about supporting
the people who need it most.

Peterson wants me to contact the
mental girl and pass on his private number.

Believe me, he is not a nice person.

Hey. You made it.

Exclusive from MemoryOnSmells, http://UKsubtitles.ru
Huge thanks to everyone who donated.

All right, you kicked my arse.

Had fun doing it. You don't ride
like a girl, do you?

I don't do anything like a girl.

Really?

Well, I don't piss standing up,
but apart from that...

You're all bloke. I can see that.

I've been thinking about
what I want... for my prize.

Who says you get a prize?

Winners always get something.

What about the thrill?
Wasn't that enough?

No.

I want you...

to have dinner with me.

I'll choose, and I'll pay.

Will your wife be coming?
You do have a wife, don't you?

I do. But she's in India at the moment.
Have you read that bloody book? 'Eat, Pray, Whatever.'

No.

My wife took it as
an instruction manual.

She's done pastries of Italy and now
she's on an ashram opening her chakras.

Ouch.

So dinner will be just you and me.

Unless there's someone
you'd like to bring along?

No.

I'm busy tonight. How's tomorrow?

I could do that.

And I could kick your arse
on the way home.

Is there anything
you need before I go?

Actually, just some glasses and
water in the boardroom. And some ice.

Oh, sorry. I didn't see
anything on the schedule.

It's just a catch-up with Peterson.

Do you want me to take notes?

No need. It's just informal.

Hey, Cinderella.

Hi.

We're going for drinks, if you want to
join us? Me, Aroha and the Krystinator.

So help me out here it could be
anthropologically interesting... watching Krystle on the prowl.

What the hell.

I told him he could do his own photocopying.
Honestly, he's a junior. He can do his own...

Oh, is Jane coming?

Dead keen. Couldn't hold her off.

Because of the free drinks?

No, my charming company.

You two will be busy
playing Spot the Prospect.

Maybe.

It's just a drink.

It's never just a drink.
It's destiny waiting to happen.

Evening.

Hi.

Madam?

Wow. All the big guns are
in tonight. Cranston.

Keith Cranston?

One and the same.

Cranston, Peterson and Simon...
fun meeting!

Shouldn't you be there
pouring the single malt?

Simon didn't ask me.

Must be very hush-hush. Maybe it's about
Peterson and his shiny new port up north.

There've been a few memos,
but that won't be for ages.

Or maybe it's about
Cranston's divorce.

What's Peterson got
to do with his divorce?

You know what boys are like when they're
off the leash, especially boys with money.

What are you saying?

Money might not buy you love, but it does
purchase intimate personal services.

Do you know that for
a fact about Peterson?

I'm just talking shit.
Let's drink some tequila.

So, any prospective talent?

He's cute.

He's the barman.

So?

Krystle's only after lawyers.
Sorry, partners.

Would you settle for an associate?

Single or married?

Let me save you a bit of time.

Married. Married.

Gay. Single.

He's not bad.

Not a lawyer though.

How do you know?

Family friend. He's a dentist.
High suicide rate amongst dentists.

But as long as he left
everything to Krystle...

No dentists.

They have their hands in other
people's mouths all day. It is creepy.

Hey, bad boy. Long time no see.

Hey, Scott.

- How's things?
- Good, good.

Who's that?

Scott McMahon. A few years
ahead of me at school.

What does he do?

He's a dentist.

He is not.

Actually, he's a lawyer,
he's straight, and he's single.

Ba-bring! The trifecta!

How many years out is he?

Out?

She means of law school,
not the closet.

Five to six? Last I heard, he was
being groomed for partnership.

Being groomed for something never
sounds particularly good, does it?

Good grooming is
absolutely essential.

So, are you going to go talk to him?

I don't chase men; men chase me.

Cheers!

Cheers.

Wow, he is really chasing!

Running hard!

I'd better go. Don't
want to miss my bus.

See you tomorrow

See ya, mate.

Alone at last.

We're hardly alone.

I can't see anyone else I am
blinded by your understated beauty.

Stop it.

And you're single; I am single.

And we're colleagues.

We could be colleagues
with benefits.

Wow, that's-that's
really romantic!

You know your window is closing.
For rebound sex. If you don't get in soon, I might lose interest.

- And then where would you be?
- Devastated.

Well, don't come begging
when it's too late. That would be embarrassing for us both.

Oh my God, I'll tell you
what is embarrassing.

Super embarrassing.
But great floor show.

We could join them.

I don't think so.

- You're gonna bail on me, aren't you?
- Correct.

Well, at least one of
us is gonna score.

Good night, Charlie.

Good night.

Go, Krystle.

Whoops. Wrong floor.

Hey, hey, so... this is it, eh?

My office is upstairs.

But I want to see it. Come on!

The evil empire.

Whoa.

It's just a law firm.

It's one of the mini-majors.

How big's yours?

Big enough.

I mean your firm.

I'm firm, all right.

Hey, that's the boardroom?

Yeah.

I just need my gym bag
for the morning.

That's a really big table.

Scott.

Speaking of huge..

I want you so bad.

- We can't.
- Yes, we can.

Cinders on the case again.

Was it a good night, Krystle?

It was, actually.

Yeah? You and Scotty hit it off?

I think so.

Can we except wedding bells?

He said he would like to see me
again. So watch this space.

Krystle, I need to see you now.

- I'll be right there.
- Now, if you don't mind.

She's going to be so disappointed when she
finds out Scott's not even an associate.

My bad.

What's so urgent?

You know the system flags
late entries into the building?

Yes.

Your swipe card was used last
night to enter the office.

I just forgot my gym bag.

So it was just you?

Collecting my bag and going again.

Let me show you something.

Well, I did have a friend with me.

I can see that. Who is he?

He just came up to get my bag.
He wanted to make sure I was safe.

How very chivalrous.
How long were you here?

Not long.

The tape is time-coded.
So is the security log.

Hmm, maybe a... few minutes.

It was 30 minutes.
What were you doing?

Scott wanted to see where I worked.
So I showed him around.

So, did you get a surname
for this Scott?

Of course.

McMahon.

Thank you. That's all for now.

Did you have a good
meeting last night?

Peterson's a busy boy.

Can I interrupt?

Sure.

We have a, uh, problem A lawyer
from Chandler Holt was in here last night.

In where?

On this floor, with Krystle.

After your meeting with Cranston and
Peterson did you leave anything out?

I didn't take notes.

But if they saw anything
anywhere else...

There was nothing to see.

That depends where he looked,
doesn't it?

And he has a very nice place
in Parnell.

Good property
values in Parnell.

What about you? Are you going
to give in to Charlie?

Um...

He's certainly trying
to wear you down.

We're colleagues.

He's quite junior, but you probably
don't get many offers, so it could be better than nothing.

Krystle. In the boardroom, please.

Huh, it's all go this morning.

We need to know what you were doing
on the premises last night.

I told you, I was
just showing him round.

Around where? Which rooms?

Reception. Upstairs to get my bag.

In here.

You were in here as well?

Yes.

What did you do?

We were just...
talking, being friendly.

Oh God. You didn't.

I am so sorry.

Did you ever leave him alone?

In here, or in any other room, was
Scott McMahon ever out of your sight?

Well, I did go to the La...
to the Ladies.

What's going on?

I don't know.
But there's Krystle's crying.

Jane, you may need to cover for
Krystle. Will that be a problem?

- No.
- Thank you.

Is Krystle unwell?

Krystle is an idiot.

She brought a lawyer from
Chandler Holt into the office and left him unattended.

I'm sure she didn't
do it deliberately.

One of their lawyers happens to gain
access in the middle of the night.

So you think that he
did it deliberately?

The work we do here is sensitive.

I know that.

I'm sorry, why is this so bad?

Krystle shagged a rival
on the boardroom table.

Right. Um, well...

She was a-a wee bit trolleyed.

How do you know?

I was with her last night. Some of
us went for a drink after work, and she met this guy.

And did he approach her?

No. No, she definitely
approached him.

Right.

Sorry, but this really does seem like a
dumb mistake, not some sort of conspiracy.

A very dumb mistake indeed.

The boardroom table?
Go, Krystle!

It's not a joke.

Still, she's not the first
to put a notch in it.

Really?

Kemp, definitely. Hastings from
resource management. And get this...

Wickliffe from Accounts was found
passed out wearing only a T-shirt and a Christmas decoration.

But she is the first woman
to attempt it.

You haven't, have you?

Not yet. Hmm.

But it is good to have ambition.
And if you want to join me..

Charlie, it's not funny.
Krystle's been suspended.

Really?

That's not fair.

But it's Krystle, and she's a cow.

I know.

Do you think the reason they're getting
so wound up is because of this new port?

Could be.

So what's that got to do with
Chandler Holt? Or Cranston?

It pays to have friends
in high places.

I just don't see why this lawyer
is such a threat. Especially if he's not even an associate.

You don't get to be rich
without being paranoid.

Heard from Cranston.
It's looking promising.

Great.

Gotta get this country
going forward somehow.

And I was thinking
it's time for a party.

Is your wife away?

She is, actually. But don't
worry, I'm not lonely.

Amy?

She's found herself other interests.
Fair enough.

I've got a new one on the go.

Right.

Biker chick... looks
great in leathers.

When you say, uh, 'on the go',
what do you mean?

We haven't sealed the deal,
but I'd say we're negotiating.

That's wise at this time?

Don't sound so po-faced. It's not
like you've always been a model husband.

What you do in your own
time is your business.

Good to know, counsel.

You just wouldn't want to attract any undue
attention, especially from a biker chick.

Don't worry. I'll know
if she's trouble.

How?

Got one of my guys doing a
background check, just to make sure.

It's what you usually do when
you're interested in a woman?

I like to know the facts before I buy.
That way, the only surprises I get are good surprises.

You made it.

Have a seat.

OK.

Hi. Is it okay to bring something you
didn't actually make to a potluck dinner?

As long as it's not lasange.

What's wrong with lasange?

I did one.

So did I.

I assumed you'd do an Indian thing.

Why?

Well, I dunno. An authentic thing.
Grind your own spices.

I didn't have time.

Oh well, I guess that's why
they call it 'pot luck'. Or we could just call it a lasagne tasting.

Well, let's hope
Linda's got a salad.

She's not that big on green things.

Where is she?

Maybe she had something on.

What about what we're
meant to be achieving?

I'm sorry, I don't
have much to report.

I do.

Krystle might be getting fired.

Really?

She had sex with someone
on the boardroom table.

Really? That's outstanding!

Talk about going out with a bang.

But what if it's not fair?

But it's Krystle.

Even if you don't like someone, they
shouldn't be wrongfully dismissed.

But it's Krystle.

Linda?

Krystle.

Thank you for doing this.

I didn't think you liked me.

I don't dislike you, and you are
really really good at your job.

I know.

Did they tell you what I did?

Yes. But you're not the only one.

I know, and it is so not fair.
And he hasn't even called me.

What are they saying at work?
Helen and Simon?

They're worried about Chandler Holt.

Who?

The firm that Scott works for.
They're concerned about espionage.

But I was with him the whole time..
apart from when I went to the Ladies.

And how long was that for?

Two minutes. Five at the most.

So they're getting all bent out of
shape about a junior lawyer who was alone for five minutes?

He's not a junior lawyer.

He is, actually.

He's not about to make partner?

No.

He's not even an associate?

Sorry.

I wouldn't
have done it otherwise.

And I am the best PA at the firm.

Helen should know that I am entirely
loyal, completely. After all I've done for her.

What kind of thing?

You should know what a PA does.
She is staff partner, so I am her eyes and ears.

Yeah, maybe you could use that.

I couldn't go up against Helen.

You could. You could
get yourself a lawyer.

That's how I got into this mess.

No, no, no, I mean an employment
lawyer. But maybe not from Chandler Holt.

So tell me, Linda, what do you want?

A burger would be good.

And now you're being evasive.

I want you to talk about you.

Endlessly fascinating topic, but
back to you. What do you want out of life?

I get what I want, mostly.

And that would be?

Mates, somewhere to live,
caning dicks at netball.

Not exactly ambitious.

I do all right.

But you're not in charge, are you?

I'm the boss at work.

No. You work for wages, running one
office of a multinational company head office in... the Netherlands.

So?

So you work your tail off
for no profit.

The general manager gets that. He swans in,
checks out the books, probably your arse, as well.

He's making the money, not you.

What? So your point's money?

I would make more in an hour than
you will in a year. Because I own things.

Well, you don't own me.

You might be a rich bastard, but there
is no shame in working for a living. No that you'd have a clue.

Hi. I'm just taking
these down to Simon.

When you've done that, you
can box up Krystle's things.

Really?

I thought that she
was just suspended.

There's due process to go through
with HR, but she will be going. And we don't need the clutter.

She really regrets what happened.

That's neither here nor there.

Her actions could have damaged the
firm's interests. You don't fraternise with the enemy.

I didn't know that we had any
cases against Chandler Holt.

The point is, if you're not reliable,
and loyal, you have no place at this firm.

How are you coping dealing
with Helen's work as well?

Oh, it's good exercise
going up and down the stairs.

A temp for Helen
should be here tomorrow.

Does Krystle really have to go?

It's a clear-cut breach.

It was a mistake.

Come on, Jane. If you shagged a
rival on their boardroom table.

But I don't understand
how they're rivals.

The point is, it was a breach.

It's not as if she's the first
person to ever do it though, is she?

It has been known, yes.

And has anyone else ever
been fired because of it?

No fired. Spoken to.

So what's different here?
Is it because Krystle's a woman?

Easy does it, Joan of Arc.

No if Krystle was a guy, it'd be
all, 'Yeah, yeah, good on ya, mate. Score.'

She's being fired, not because she
shagged someone, but because she breached security.

God knows what Scott McMahon was
up to when she was doing whatever it is women do in the Ladies.

Anything else?

No.

It's none of your business, Jane.
Leave it alone.

Free for lunch?

No, I've gotta make a delivery.

But I already bought it.
Steak and cheese.

I took a punt.

What if I'm a vegetarian?

I already know you like your meat.

We had dinner.

Yeah, all right. Hope you got
some sauce. I like a lot of sauce.

Where are we?

My place.

You don't live here.

I used to. I was born and raised
right there... state-house kid. Like you, probably.

I'm not ashamed of it, but it was
bloody good to get out of there.

So, was I right, about you?

Wow. We've got so much in common!

You didn't have to get
the pip and walk out.

Didn't like how you talked to me.

- I was being honest.
- Were you?

So, if you started here, how did
you get to where you are now?

I took some risks, made the wins.

What about the losses?

What losses?

For people. Like the ones that
invested in your finance company.

There's always wins and losses.

People who don't get that don't understand
business. Or life, for that matter.

You never lose.

I lost the person I cared most about
when I was living right there.

My sister. She had leukaemia.
She was 12 when she died; I was 15.

So the charity thing is
not all bullshit then, eh?

It is tax deductible.

Some things you can't control,
but if it's in my power, then I never, ever lose.

You can make that happen.

Anything is justified
as long as you win.

You believe that?

I don't just believe it,
I know it.

What else do I know?

Stay ahead of the game; always
know more than your opponent.

And don't get stuck with
a problem... eliminate it.

Just rub it out?

And move on. Now you.

Now me what?

I told you three things about me.
You tell me three things.

OK.

I'm a Sagittarius, I hate cheesecake
and my favourite colour is red.

Would you call that a fair exchange?

Who said anything about fair?

We've established
she's a dirty player.

Like you.

I gotta get back to work.

Yeah, you should. Or your
boss might dock your pay.

Whoa, what a prick.

Literally.

What's going on?

Scott McMahon just sent me pictures.

Of what?

Oh yeah, baby.

That's appalling.

It gets worse

Oh my God!

Then he wipes his dick
on the blinds.

You need to call him and tell him
to delete these right now.

Oh my God.

Have you seen the
pictures of Krystle?

It's porn. Thought you'd be into it.

- For the last time, Charles, I do...
- How did you see the pictures?

It's just gone viral.

Are you serious?

Amazing what you can do with a
cell phone and a really big ego.

You do know this guarantees
she's down the road.

Can I use your phone?

- No point deleting them
if they're everywhere. - And it is.

I'm not gonna delete them.

Oh my God.

Oh no.

Good lord!

I know. It's not good.

The vertical blinds will
need to be disinfected.

Yep, probably.

But... the good thing is, that
all the photos are time-stamped.

So they give a detailed account of
what Scott was doing for the six minutes that he was left alone.

Posing, it would seem.
Waving his dick around.

But not spying.

I'll need a copy of these.

I can, um, forward them to you.

Thank you.

This is a good thing, isn't it?
In terms of clearing Krystle.

I'm not thinking about Krystle. I'm thinking
about the reputation of this firm and the potential damage.

Oh, full attendance. Finally.

Sorry about the potluck thing.

I'll allocate a menu next time.

Doesn't that kind of
take the luck out of it?

So, how's it going with Krystle?

What has that cow done now?

She's gonna lose her job.

Awesome.

I think that she's being made a
scapegoat, because Mosely's are paranoid.

So? It's Krystle.

That's what I said. And there's nothing we
can do. Especially after the photos.

What photos?

- Do you want to see?
- No, no. She doesn't.

Well, I think it's very nice that
Jane's being so kind to her enemy.

You're not a secret
Christian by any chance?

No.

And I think I actually probably
made it worse for her.

Is that a bad thing?

I just can't help but think there is
a bigger picture here... something to do with Peterson.

What about him?

Well, he was going in there, meeting with
Cranston, and Mosely's are all paranoid about an employment firm.

There's gotta be some connection.

Well, you keep on it.

Let's drink to the end of Krystle.

Down the hatch, down the road!

Hear, hear!

Don't worry. At least you tried.

I thought we were meant to
be on silent for meetings.

Hello?

Hey, phone thief.

Sorry, I meant to give it back
to you before, but you were out.

I could come to you and pick it up.
Where are you?

That's okay. I can come to you.

I'm at the Liver Bar.

Sure. I can meet you there.

Sorry, I have to go
and give this back.

What about the meeting?

Well, that was all I had to report,
so unless there's anything else?

Nah. No really.

OK, bye.

Bye. Jane.

I really am starting to
question the commitment.

Ah, phone burglar.

Or it was all a deliberate ploy,
so you'd have an excuse to get me alone.

No.

But here you are.

So, why'd you want the photos?

I was trying to help
Krystle. And I was failing miserably.

You know she would
never do that for you.

Yes, but if we all live our lives
by that principle, it's just dog eat dog.

Are you sure you should be working
in law? Maybe social work? A convent?

Shit.

Howzit?

Excuse me.

Hey, Charlie. What's up?

I just wanted to say something
about those photos.

Pretty hot, eh?

You're an arsehole.

Shit!

Run.

Come here!

I can't believe you did that!

Neither can I.

How come when they hit each other
in movies, no one ever says ow?

Cos they're tough guys.

Not me, obviously.

Why on earth did you do that?

I don't know. Because he's
a shit and he deserved it.

Wow. What was that?

Because.

Even though violence is not the answer,
you stood up for Krystle, and I think that's really great.

I didn't do that for Krystle.

OK.

Let's go back to the office and
see if the boardroom's free.

No. I'm-I'm-I'm going to go.

I could smack someone else
if you wanted.

No, I'm just gonna get my bus.

Are you sure?

Good night, Charlie.

Good night, Jane.

I'm delighted that you share
my concerns about this.

Morning. Would you like some coffee?

We're right. There's a partner's report
I need proofed. It's on your desk upstairs.

All done.

Thanks. Come in.

I've just been meeting with the
senior partners at Chandler Holt.

Really?

They're in full agreement that
this is highly unprofessional.

Scott?

He demeaned one of our employees, the whole
profession. He is going to be dealt with.

Fred?

No, not fired.

The partners feel that he deserves
a chance to learn from his mistake, so he's being reassigned.

Where to?

They're considering their
office in Palmerston North.

Scott will think twice about attempting
to humiliate women in the future.

That's great.

Law can be a rough place for women.
It's meant to be equal, but we all know it's not.

We need to look out
for each another.

Does this mean that
Krystle's coming back?

Give me a reason why she should.

Oh, um... Well, she's efficient...

She's very well-groomed.

And I-I-I think it's true... some
people, they do deserve another chance.

And we don't need a
personal grievance suit.

No.

You're quite an asset, Jane.

Thank you.

Can you make me eight copies
of this and bind them?

Certainly.

You look very pleased with yourself.

Well, I'm pleased that someone did
the right thing about Krystle.

Helen? She saw a chance to
stick it to the opposition.

No. She thought it was sexist.

'I am woman, hear me roar'?

Well, maybe that's not how
she explained it to you.

Helen is not a flag-flier;
she's a strategist.

She saw a chance to get one over
the opposition; she took it.

We hardly ever come up
against Chandler Holt.

It's still possible.

Is that because they do some work
for the Watersiders' Union?

It was on their website.

Peterson wants to open a new port,
and Cranston has been here after hours.

To discuss business.

Does Peterson want some changes
to employment law?

- What would make you think that?
- It's happened before.

Government changing the law
in the interests of business.

It's not illegal.

You cannot think that changing the
law in a back-room deal is right.

If so, you wouldn't have been so
paranoid about Krystle and Chandler Holt.

- Nothing has actually happened yet.
- Except Krystle almost lost her job!

OK, I would take this as a victory for
the sisterhood and get on with your job,

which is not coming up with conspiracy theories
or moralising over parliamentary process.

Am I being clear here?

Very clear.

I was just thinking about you.

What about?

How much I like a woman that
doesn't give too much away.

Not much point in saying
shit you don't need to.

D'you want to have dinner with me?

Sure. How about... my place?

Your real place?

I'll text you the address.

Sweet.

Tonight?

I'll look forward to it.
Bring dessert. But not cheesecake.

You know I would never
bring cheesecake.

And it's very important to
know these kinds of details.

Is this your high score
on Solitaire?

Sometimes it doesn't get very busy.

No, no, I'm impressed.

You're back.

Of course.

You know you really are Wonder
Woman. Maybe more Julie Andrews.

Why did you dump all
my things in this box?

Uh, because I was asked to.

Well, the lid came off my nail
polish and it went everywhere.

Sorry about that.

Welcome back.

I was always confident my record
would speak for itself.

I did hope so.

What did you do,
except ruin my things?

So, Krystle.

Met any nice lawyers, lately?
Boardroom's free if you need it.

Arsehole.

And normal transmission is resumed.

Bet you wondered why you bothered?

Hmm.

Fancy a pash?

It's me.

Come on in.

Can I get you a drink?

One of those would be good.

You cooking?

I had a little help
from the housekeeper.

You have a woman do your work?

I have staff. But not live-in.

I assure you I can burn
the sausages myself.

Where's dessert?

Nice.

You, uh, dip them in your coffee;
walt till they melt, then you lick 'em

Sounds tempting.

Wee bit bigger than your last place.

Who wouldn't want more?

A scungy house in a dead-end street.

Dad getting pissed, giving Mum
a hiding. You don't forget that, do ya?

Poverty's not just about money.
It's about choices.

Some people don't have any.

Bullshit. You can change things
if you want, get an education.

Courses are for horses.

Well, you were always way too smart
for secretarial college.

How do you know about that?

I couldn't peg you. When I saw you
at the charity do, I could tell you weren't a lawyer.

I liked that about you, but every time
I try to get near you, you put up a wall, or walk out the door.

What's a man to do?

You could just ask.

Righto. Why were you
at that charity do?

Because of my friend Rose.

We met at secretarial college.

And while she was working
at Mosely's, she died.

Fell off a wharf.

Yeah. Shame, that.

So I decided to go,
keep her memory alive.

You knew her?

She worked for my lawyer,
so I had a bit to do with her.

Did you know she had a daughter?
Nina.

She's nine, nearly 10.

Poor kid.

I am a second away from burning
these. I didn't get the housekeeper to do anything green.

I don't do green.

You see? It's uncanny.

What is?

We like the same things.
We want the same things.

Do we?

I let you off the hook with that bullshit
about being Gemini, and hating cheesecake...

Sagittarius.

...but you came back.

I didn't call you; you called me.

Yeah, I did.

So you have to want something.
And you can tell me, or not tell me, but I will work it out.

I want...

more sauce.

I bet you do.
