00:00Charlotte, where are you? The wedding ceremony has already started. Everyone's waiting for
00:22you. Why didn't you wake me up? I've been calling you dozens of times all morning.
00:28Charlotte, what's going on? Are you okay? I'll be right there.
00:46Dear friends and family, we're gathered here today to join Andrew Thompson and Charlotte
00:52Cooper in holy matrimony. Where have you been? Is everything okay?
00:58There's something I need to tell you. I...
01:03What's wrong, honey? We're about to be husband and wife. Tell me everything, you know that?
01:11I mean, come on, it can't be that bad. Andrew, my son was stolen last night.
01:18You cheated on me on our wedding day? I... I thought it was you.
01:33You disgusted me.
01:38Go home. Wedding's canceled.
01:48Oh my God, Dad! Calm down. Dad, I swear I didn't know the man last night wasn't Andrew.
01:55Someone had to upset me up. You ruined your engagement, whether it was your fault or not.
02:00You know how bad things are? You might have ruined the business deal with the Thompson's.
02:04I just lost my chance at lifelong happiness, and all you care about is a business deal.
02:09Don't get upset at Charlotte. I mean, she's still your daughter. She goes...
02:12No! She's disgraced us for the last time. Charlotte, go get your things.
02:17Dad, what are you talking about?
02:19Don't call me that. Father-daughter relationship is over, as of right now. Go get your things. Go!
02:32Sir, I have reviewed the hotel security cameras, but it looks like someone wiped your floor's footage in between 11 p.m. and midnight.
02:40Are you trying to say that someone tried to set me up?
02:43What about the girl that came to my hotel room last night? Could it have been her?
02:47We can't confirm if you were the target, sir.
02:49The eldest son of the Thompson family was having his bachelor party at the hotel.
02:53Some escorts came, and it could have been one of them.
03:01Oh, and Charlotte, I totally forgot to tell you something.
03:05It was all me, slut.
03:08Jess, what are you talking about?
03:10Honestly, it was too easy.
03:12I just found a drunk stranger at the hotel bar, and then I stole his room card, and then I accidentally sent me to his room.
03:22Oh, I was just wondering if you'd like to pay for him after this.
03:27How could you do this to me?
03:31Because I found nothing dangerous.
03:34You're a pain in the ass.
03:38Wait, let me out!
03:44Over the years, I've been abroad until my father suddenly told me to come back half a month ago.
03:49Fortunately, I'm not alone anymore.
03:53Roman, how many times have I told you, don't wander off without me?
03:57Sorry, Mommy.
03:59It's okay, I'm not trying to scold you.
04:01It's just dangerous, wandering off without me, okay?
04:04Isn't this her home?
04:07This was my home.
04:09It's not anymore.
04:10You're my only family.
04:11Wherever you are, that's home.
04:13Will we still get to see Daddy this time?
04:16Then we can finally be a real family.
04:20If only I knew who he is.
04:29Excuse me, sir, excuse me, ma'am.
04:32Thank you.
04:34Hey, what are you doing?
04:36We've been waiting here forever.
04:37You can't just cut in line.
04:38How much you want?
04:40You want money?
04:41How much you want for the cab?
04:42500 bucks?
04:43What? Are you serious?
04:44You want a thousand?
04:47Here you go.
04:48Take the money and scrap.
04:53Are you kidding me?
04:56Are you kidding me?
04:57Let me go.
04:58Don't disrespect me like that.
04:59That's my money.
05:01Daddy!
05:02I'm not your dad, kid.
05:03Okay?
05:04Get out of the way.
05:05Roman, come on, let's go.
05:06See you later, Dad.
05:08Go, please.
05:11I want you to find out as much as you can about that girl.
05:14Yes, sir.
05:17Hold that cab.
05:28Andrew?
05:30Charlotte.
05:32It's been a while.
05:35You've changed a lot.
05:37What are you doing here?
05:39Honey, who is it?
05:41Oh, my God!
05:42Charlotte!
05:43You're here!
05:44Good.
05:45After all these years, you finally decided to show up.
05:48I missed you so much.
05:51Wait, who's the kid?
05:55Oh, you've got to be joking.
05:57Don't tell me you got pregnant from that one-night stand.
06:00You gave birth to it?
06:02Ew.
06:03Watch it.
06:04If you say something like that again, I'll make you wish you were never born.
06:08Forget it, babe.
06:09Let's go back inside.
06:13Wait.
06:15You two are...
06:16Oh, Daddy didn't tell you?
06:18Andrew and I are engaged.
06:20The wedding's this weekend.
06:24Daddy didn't tell you?
06:26Andrew and I are engaged.
06:27Andrew and I are engaged.
06:28The wedding's this weekend.
06:31Congratulations.
06:33You two truly deserve each other.
06:35Is she here?
06:37Yes, Daddy!
06:39Well, we should get inside before Daddy gets mad.
06:43He wouldn't want that, right?
06:52Why did you bring him?
06:53Roman is my son.
06:54Of course I would take him with me.
06:57She's right, Daddy.
06:58I mean, that is your grandson over there.
07:03I'll never accept a bastard as my grandson.
07:06How could you say that?
07:07If you weren't going to welcome us, then why call us back here at all?
07:10This weekend is Vanessa and Andrew's engagement party.
07:14I also plan on announcing Vanessa as the new Cooper heir.
07:18I thought you should be here for that.
07:21Not a child.
07:22Well, the next time something like this happens,
07:24just delete my number and save us both the time.
07:27Goodbye, and hopefully we never see either of you again.
07:30Let's go, Mom.
07:35Charlotte Cooper, 30 years old,
07:37eldest daughter of the Cooper family.
07:39Ten years ago, her father, Bruce Cooper,
07:41kicked her out of the family because of some sort of a scandal.
07:46I mean, she's been working as a fashion...
07:48Hold on, did you just say that there was a scandal ten years ago?
07:52Hold on, hold on.
07:53Did you say that there's a scandal ten years ago?
07:56Yes, sir.
07:57The records show here that Charlotte Cooper
07:59left the country ten years ago following a scandal
08:02that was exposed at Andrew Thompson's wedding.
08:04Oh, we see that.
08:06She's been abroad ever since.
08:09You know, there's something familiar about this girl.
08:12What?
08:13Nothing.
08:16Thank you, sir.
08:17Keep digging.
08:18I want to know what else you can find out about this girl.
08:28Shit, I forgot to exchange money.
08:32I'm sorry, honey.
08:33This is all Mommy has.
08:35Don't worry, Mommy.
08:36It's enough.
08:47Mommy, the nice ice cream lady gave me an extra one.
08:52That's so sweet.
08:53Did you say thank you?
09:07Excuse me, mister.
09:08You dropped your ring.
09:13Excuse me, mister.
09:14You dropped your ring.
09:17It's you.
09:18Did you steal it, you filthy brat?
09:20Andrew!
09:21No, I didn't.
09:23How could you say that?
09:24Roman didn't do anything.
09:25He knows that it's hard whether he did it or not.
09:28You really have no shame, huh, Charlotte?
09:30Aren't you embarrassed?
09:31Dragging around this stealing bastard with you everywhere?
09:37You say that again, I swear.
09:39Did I call him wrong?
09:41I mean, it's true.
09:42He's nothing but a filthy little bastard.
09:45Are you out of your damn mind?
09:49Oh, my God!
09:50Barking and biting like a rabid dog?
09:53What kind of parent raises their child like that?
09:55Don't blame the kid.
09:56Raised without a father.
09:58No wonder he doesn't have any manners.
10:02Honey!
10:04Hey.
10:05Hi, sweetheart.
10:07You all right?
10:11Hey.
10:12Hi, sweetheart.
10:13Hey.
10:14Hi, sweetheart.
10:15You all right?
10:17Huh?
10:18Hey, buddy.
10:19Hi, Daddy.
10:20You good?
10:21I'm sorry, guys.
10:22I had to take a phone call from the embassy reporter.
10:23Oh, my God.
10:24They just keep pestering me for an interview.
10:26Blowing my mind.
10:27Did I miss something?
10:29No, honey.
10:30They just wanted some money for the bus.
10:33No, guys.
10:34I'm so sorry.
10:35I don't have any money on me.
10:36But if you guys need a ride, we can take you for a ride in our new Porsche.
10:44Thank you so much.
10:45I'm Charlotte.
10:46I only do that because I don't like to see kids being pestered.
10:49Okay, what kind of parent gives their kid only ice cream?
10:53And where's the kid's father?
10:54I mean, what kind of father leaves their kid with someone like you?
11:08Are you serious?
11:10Are you really going to treat somebody like that that just saved your life?
11:14I'm grateful for your help, but no one tells me how to raise my son.
11:17Let's go, Roman.
11:19All right.
11:20We'll see you soon.
11:21Don't worry.
11:22All right.
11:23Stop.
11:30Luckily, I still have one last refuge in this world.
11:34Oh, my God, Charlotte, my sweetheart.
11:37Hi.
11:38Where have you been?
11:40Hi, I'm Roman.
11:41Hi, Roman, sweetie.
11:42So good to see you.
11:44You guys, come on in.
11:45So good to have you back.
11:48You need a wing.
11:49Here you go.
11:50So how's he doing in school?
11:52Amazing.
11:53He's great.
11:54Good.
11:55As always.
11:57Slow down, child.
12:00Okay.
12:02Okay, I'm going to go outside.
12:04Oh, okay.
12:08Thank you so much for all of this.
12:11Honey, I'm your godmother.
12:13I should be conjuring up glass slippers and pumpkin carriages for you.
12:19Oh, you know what?
12:20That reminds me.
12:21Wait here a moment.
12:25So, I heard about Andrew and Vanessa's engagement party this weekend.
12:30I'd really rather not go.
12:32I think I just want to cut off all contact with them.
12:34Charlotte, living well is the best revenge.
12:38And those who wish ill upon you, it's the right thing.
12:43You know what?
12:44Open the box and give them a sight to behold.
12:52You're going to be beautiful.
13:00See that girl over there in the purple?
13:03Don't let her in.
13:11Excuse me, ma'am.
13:12May I see your invitation, ma'am?
13:14What invitation?
13:16I'm sorry.
13:18No invitation, you can't enter, ma'am.
13:20Listen, I didn't even want to come here tonight.
13:22Your host is the one that invited me.
13:24And if he doesn't see me, it's going to be a big problem for you.
13:27Rules are rules.
13:28Rules are rules.
13:29No invitation, no entry.
13:35Daddy!
13:39I didn't expect to see you here.
13:41Well, I didn't.
13:44We forgot our invitation.
13:47Do you think you could help us in?
13:49Of course.
13:51But you're going to have to beg me.
13:54Beg me.
13:57You're going to have to beg me.
14:02Okay.
14:03Please.
14:04Will you help us get in?
14:07Mr...
14:08Ethan Wright.
14:10Please, Mr. Wright.
14:11Would you help us?
14:12Sure.
14:14But just to be clear,
14:16I'm only doing it for the kid.
14:18Of course.
14:20There you go.
14:23I'm sorry, Mr. Wright.
14:26Enjoy.
14:33Pretty dress.
14:34Thank you so much.
14:35And thank you for coming, really.
14:40I heard Galaxina Media's CEO, Ethan Wright, is in town.
14:44So, I asked someone to help me.
14:47So, I asked someone to send him an invitation.
14:50Do you think he'll come?
14:52Ethan Wright.
14:54I've never heard of him attending private events.
14:56What makes you think an ice king like that would want...
14:59So, I asked someone to send him an invitation.
15:02Do you think he'll come?
15:04Ethan Wright.
15:06I've never heard of him attending private events.
15:08What makes you think an ice king like that would want to come to our little engagement party?
15:13Does it hurt to try?
15:14Let me think about it.
15:15If he comes today, everyone will look up to us.
15:22That bitch.
15:25Well, Charlotte.
15:27What a surprise to see you here.
15:30Didn't daddy tell you not to bring the bastard?
15:33Well, I find your party just as sad and disgusting as you.
15:38And that's why I brought some people that don't make me sick to look at.
15:42What are you laughing at?
15:46My apologies.
15:47I've never been to such a quaint little banquet before.
15:52Please, excuse my rudeness.
15:58This dress is a one-of-a-kind designer gown.
16:01Custom made for me in Italy.
16:04My dear sister, if you really didn't have anything suitable to wear for tonight,
16:08you could have brought something of mine.
16:11Nothing can be as bad as that out-of-season thing you're wearing.
16:15What's under that cloak you're too scared to take off?
16:19I bet it's something even more embarrassing.
16:25I bet it's something even more embarrassing.
16:29Not what you expected?
16:37I'm so sorry.
16:38I'm so sorry.
16:39Let me help you.
16:40Stop pulling my body, mean lady.
16:43My limited edition designer shoes.
16:45Get out of here, you little brat.
16:48Andrew, let him go.
16:50Andrew, don't blame the boy.
16:53After all, his mother is Charlotte.
16:58You know, the woman who slept around before her wedding day.
17:02Let go of the kid.
17:07Who the hell do you think you are?
17:10Who the hell do you think you are?
17:11No one makes you think you can talk to me like that.
17:13Oh, I'm sorry.
17:15I must have not mentioned.
17:17I'm the kid's father.
17:21You can get lost too before I throw you out with him.
17:25What's going on here?
17:29What's going on here?
17:32Daddy, it was Charlotte.
17:33She was telling everyone that...
17:34Enough, enough.
17:35Can't you see we have an esteemed guest here?
17:36Mr. Miller doesn't want to hear this nonsense.
17:38Charlotte, come with me.
17:47Do you want to get some food?
17:48Sure.
17:49Come on.
17:56Charlotte, this is Starfield's CEO, Mr. Miller.
18:00Starfield's the biggest oil company in our state.
18:03And a very important partner.
18:05It's nice to meet you, Mr. Miller.
18:07Nice to meet you too, Charlotte.
18:09You're just undeniably gorgeous, aren't you?
18:13Thank you.
18:15See, I had a feeling you two would be a great match.
18:19Dad, what is this all about?
18:21Behave yourself, Charlotte.
18:23It's all right, Bruce. No worries.
18:25Charlotte, I got myself a private room upstairs.
18:29Why don't you and I go get some coffee and get to know you a little better?
18:34Absolutely, Mr. Miller.
18:35Go on, Charlotte.
18:38Mommy, I see there's really good cake over there.
18:42Do you want to go try it with me?
18:44Mommy, Charlotte's a sure rocker, eh?
18:46I can come to your room, Mr. Miller, as long as my son and my husband approve.
18:54Come on over here, Cooper.
18:56Excuse me, gentlemen, but I'm afraid I tend to be the jealous type.
19:01As you heard, looks like my husband isn't okay with it.
19:05So, I'll have to decline your offer.
19:08This is a misunderstanding.
19:10She doesn't have a child.
19:12It's just technically an unimportant little bastard.
19:15Dad, stop with the lies.
19:17Everyone here knows Roman is my son.
19:19Stop pretending like he isn't.
19:21What the hell is this, Cooper?
19:23Are you trying to make a fool out of me, huh?
19:25No, no, no. Joe, look, I would never do that.
19:27You know that.
19:28They're just a couple of hired actors.
19:32She's role-playing. It's a spring house.
19:35Oh, fuck you, Bruce.
19:37Our deal is off.
19:39You pay your own goddamn debt yourself.
19:47Charlotte!
19:49I have had it with you.
19:51This is the last time you embarrass me.
19:53Go and apologize to Mr. Miller.
19:55Dad, are you crazy?
19:56Go!
20:00Mr. Wright.
20:03Wouldn't you like for me to get someone to clean up this mess?
20:07Did you just say Mr. Wright?
20:09Who are you, really?
20:15This is Ethan Wright.
20:18And he is the top ten on Forbes' billionaire list.
20:22CEO of Galaxy Net.
20:23And, of course, Miss Charlotte Cooper's husband.
20:30Mr. Cooper.
20:32My wife here came out of courtesy to enjoy her sister's engagement.
20:37But unfortunately, instead of you thanking her for coming,
20:41you have completely embarrassed both of us
20:44by trying to get her to go to another man's room in front of our son.
20:47Do you care to explain?
20:50Do you care
20:51Do you care
20:53to explain?
20:55Mommy, did he hear that?
20:58I mean,
21:00Mr. Wright, even if I may,
21:02I obviously was not privy to all the ins and outs of what's happening here.
21:07And somebody didn't tell me they got married.
21:11So there's no way I was going to know that he was your son.
21:14It's impossible. He wasn't even the guy from that movie.
21:17What? Why don't you finish?
21:18Why don't you finish?
21:20I... I...
21:22Why don't you tell them how you framed me and ruined my peaceful life?
21:25Spit it out!
21:29Why don't you tell them how you framed me and ruined my peaceful life?
21:34Spit it out!
21:36What is she talking about, Vanessa?
21:38Nothing. Nothing. She's...
21:40She's obviously just jealous of our happiness.
21:42And it's freaking nonsense.
21:44Yes.
21:46Honey?
21:48Honey?
21:50This is all your fault.
21:52Let's go.
21:56If I may...
21:58My son-in-law. Your son-in-law.
22:00Look, I can't apologize enough.
22:02And I can only hope that you find it in your heart to forgive.
22:06Because I didn't know why I...
22:10Yes, you did make a mistake.
22:14You have absolutely embarrassed us.
22:16I do not appreciate how you have treated my family.
22:20Charlotte.
22:22Let's get out of here and rid ourselves of the filth.
22:25You're right, honey. Let's go.
22:27I...
22:29I...
22:31I don't like these people.
22:33Let's not visit them again.
22:35Sure thing, sweetheart.
22:38Ethan!
22:40We could be partners and make a lot of money together!
22:42Come on.
22:47What?
22:52Hold on one sec. I'm just going to call room service.
22:54Because I need to find new... Here we go.
22:58Oh, um...
23:01What? Do I look weird?
23:04No. No, you... You look, uh...
23:09You look good.
23:17Um...
23:19What?
23:25What? What is it?
23:30Okay, let me ask you a question.
23:33What did they mean about you fooling around about your wedding ten years ago?
23:36Ethan, let me go.
23:38Answer my question.
23:40Does he think I'm easy because of what Vanessa said?
23:47I'm sorry. I...
23:52I didn't mean to do that.
23:59I'm sorry.
24:01I should go.
24:08Roman, let's go home.
24:12Rome?
24:14Rome?
24:17Are you here?
24:22Roman, where are you?
24:30Charlotte, I have Roman.
24:32You'll stay with me until you help us seal the deal with Ethan Wright.
24:36What's wrong with you, you monster?
24:38He's your grandson!
24:40Watch your mouth, my good daughter.
24:43Your son's safety is in your hands.
24:45If I were you, I'd start running.
24:48Wait, please let me talk to him first.
24:50Wait.
24:52Hello?
25:09Ryan, where is Ethan? I need to see him right now.
25:14I'm constantly repeating myself.
25:16I feel like a broken record.
25:19Ethan?
25:21Ethan, are you listening to me?
25:23Yeah, yeah.
25:25Then what did I say?
25:27That it's time to find a wife.
25:30And that I need to start thinking about marriage and family.
25:33But, Mom, I'm not.
25:35Exactly.
25:37Listen, I know you're busy.
25:39So, I found some letters for you.
25:42Ethan, Ms. Charlotte Cooper is insisting on seeing you.
25:47She's at the front door right now.
25:50I'll be right back.
26:03Well, looks like I may actually have a daughter-in-law soon.
26:12Hi, I'm so sorry to bother you, but I really need your help.
26:15Okay, calm down. What happened?
26:17My father took Roman. You're the only person who can help me.
26:20What were his terms?
26:22You just have to pick the Coopers as your business partners.
26:25I'm sorry, but I've run out of all other options.
26:27Otherwise, I wouldn't bother you like this again.
26:29What's in it for me?
26:31What?
26:33I mean, listen, just because I've helped you out a couple times,
26:35it doesn't make me some automatic, wish-granted genie, okay?
26:38Even genies take some sort of payment.
26:43So, what do you want to pay me?
26:45Whatever it takes.
26:48What do you want to pay me?
26:50Whatever it takes.
26:52Let me ask you a question.
26:54Is this some sort of scheme that you and your father are putting together?
26:56What, you're trying to bait me into believing
26:58that there's some kid being held hostage?
27:00What, to just gain my sympathy?
27:02What do you mean?
27:04Listen, I've seen these dirty tricks happen way too many times.
27:06If your father wants to cut a deal with me,
27:08he can make me a deal that's going to impress me.
27:10Otherwise, no fucking deal.
27:12You really think that little of me?
27:14Fine.
27:16Thanks for nothing.
27:23What's wrong?
27:25Nothing.
27:27Alfred, what's the problem?
27:29I'm just concerned that you may regret your actions
27:32if later you find out you misjudged our love, Miss Cooper.
27:44Brian.
27:46Hello, Ethan.
27:48I need you to figure out if Roman's really being held hostage.
27:50Figure out if this is a trap set by the Coopers.
27:53All right, thanks.
27:55Daddy, are you sure this is safe?
27:57I mean,
27:59Ethan Wright's a very powerful man.
28:01He'll probably find that place easily.
28:03Don't worry.
28:05I've got my best men keeping watch.
28:07Plus, it's offshore.
28:09It's not as easy as you think.
28:11Offshore?
28:13Yeah.
28:15It's not as easy as you think.
28:17It's not as easy as you think.
28:19It's not as easy as you think.
28:21It's not as easy as you think.
28:22Offshore?
28:32Did you hear something?
28:34Relax, Dad.
28:36You're probably just on edge.
28:38Plus, our new locks won't let anyone get past the combo.
28:41You know,
28:43I bet Ethan Wright isn't even with Charlotte,
28:45or he'd be here by now.
28:47That bitch is probably on a show.
28:49Who knows what she offers him in return.
28:52Their relationship might be more complicated
28:54than it seems,
28:56but he might be able to take advantage of that.
29:04What?
29:06The men are on the move?
29:08Whose men?
29:10Ethan?
29:12There's no way.
29:14He made it very clear that he wasn't interested in helping.
29:16Well, put the order out and move the little bastard.
29:18Do it now.
29:20That doesn't sound good.
29:22I bet they'll up the security.
29:24Then it'll be even harder to track him down.
29:27No.
29:29I have to go now.
29:45My own sweet daughter.
29:47Still up to your dirty little tricks, I see.
29:50You're not my father, you're a monster.
29:52Give me my son back.
29:54All this time,
29:56you haven't changed.
29:58You still haven't...
30:03My own sweet daughter.
30:05Still up to your dirty little tricks, I see.
30:08You're not my father, you're a monster.
30:10Give me my son back.
30:13All this time,
30:15you haven't changed.
30:17You still haven't...
30:19got a temper, huh?
30:21Well, it's your hotshot husband
30:23that should be here begging to make a deal with me.
30:26I've already tried to convince him.
30:28There's nothing else I can do.
30:30He refused?
30:33I knew you weren't his wife.
30:36Oh, my God.
30:38How dare you try to act like some, what,
30:40high and mighty wife?
30:42Oh, you're gonna cry?
30:46Oh, man.
30:50Well,
30:52sweet child,
30:54here now is your opportunity to make things right.
30:56Remember Mr. Miller?
30:58I know you do.
31:00He's quite fond of you.
31:02Why don't you turn that way?
31:04You can play your part in our family business.
31:08If you like him so much,
31:10why don't you marry him?
31:12Won't that be better for your family business?
31:14You keep saying no to me,
31:16and I won't be able to guarantee
31:18the safety of your little brat!
31:20I...
31:25Sir,
31:27our men have confirmed.
31:29Rummy Cooper,
31:31he was kidnapped by his grandfather.
31:33He was last spotted at
31:35Andrew and Vanessa's engagement party.
31:37Could I really have misjudged you then?
31:50Come on, go with me!
31:52Help! Help!
31:54Somebody help!
31:56Don't bother.
31:58Nobody's coming to save your sorry little ass.
32:00What do you think you're gonna do with him, huh?
32:02Daddy!
32:04Put him down.
32:06Fuck off, lover boy.
32:08You heard what I said.
32:10Go.
32:12You asked for this.
32:17You're so cruel.
32:18Those bad guys didn't stand a chance.
32:21Daddy, watch out!
32:27Let's go home, Mom.
32:35I'm sorry,
32:37but the person you've called has no line so far.
32:39Sorry,
32:41the person you've called has no line so far.
32:46Hey,
32:48don't worry.
32:50Your mother is probably outside looking for you.
32:52That's why she didn't answer the phone.
32:54But do you want to stay with me for a couple of days?
32:58Daddy,
33:00is Mommy in danger?
33:02No.
33:04Your mom
33:06is going to be perfectly fine.
33:08She is tough.
33:10She is very, very tough.
33:12But she needs someone to protect her.
33:15Daddy,
33:16can you protect her?
33:22I'm sorry, kid.
33:25I'm not your father.
33:28Are you hungry?
33:30Do you want to get some food?
33:32Come on.
33:46Throw it.
33:48That's a good throw.
33:50Good job, buddy.
33:52Ethan, what are you doing?
33:54Who is this kid?
33:56Hi, I'm Roman.
33:58Hello, sweetie.
34:00What on earth is going on here?
34:02Listen, I'm just taking care of him for a couple of days.
34:04Don't lie to me, Ethan.
34:06Who's his mother?
34:08Is she that girl that came by last time?
34:10Yes, but listen,
34:12it's not what you think.
34:14Roman's grandfather kidnapped him.
34:16He has more interest in this child than
34:18leads on.
34:20Listen, I'm not going to lie, okay?
34:22We do have a strong connection,
34:24a connection that's
34:26like what a father and son would have,
34:28but he's not mine.
34:34Listen, I'm not going to lie, okay?
34:36We do have a strong connection,
34:38a connection that's
34:40like what a father and son would have,
34:42but he's not mine.
34:44Ethan, I know you want to try
34:46but there's already rumors about you
34:48having a secret child.
34:50Better to keep a low profile now
34:52and let me look after him for a while.
34:54All right.
34:56That makes sense.
34:58Come on, sweetie.
35:00We'll have some fun together,
35:02won't we, Romy?
35:04Daddy, can we play later again?
35:07Daddy?
35:09Ethan Wright,
35:11you need to explain yourself.
35:13Hey, buddy,
35:14who did you say that you were?
35:16I'm mine.
35:18Okay, you're mine.
35:20Well,
35:22the timing matches up.
35:24Ethan, no matter what the truth is,
35:26right now finding his mother is a priority.
35:29We can work out everything else later.
35:33Come on.
35:40Where are you, Charlotte?
35:45Oh, there she is.
35:47Oh, look at you.
35:49Looking pretty as a picture.
35:51Sparkling like a diamond in that dress.
35:55I need to use the restroom.
35:58Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
36:00Remember what I told you.
36:02Behave
36:04if you want the boy to live.
36:07I'm sorry.
36:09I'm sorry.
36:11I'm sorry.
36:13Okay, let's go.
36:17There she is.
36:19Certainly is wonderful to see you again, Charlotte.
36:22Looking spectacularly beautiful, as always.
36:25So, I'm glad we cleared up that little misunderstanding, Joe.
36:28But, uh,
36:30about our previous arrangement...
36:32Oh, no worries at all, Brucie.
36:34Oh, man, my word.
36:36You're dead,
36:38rest safely with me, pal.
36:40Cheers.
36:42Cheers.
36:50What?
36:52The brat escaped? When?
36:57Idiots.
36:59Tell them to send more men.
37:01The brat must be found.
37:06Let me go.
37:08Oh, don't be shy, beautiful.
37:10Come on, I'm just trying to be nice.
37:12Here?
37:14Let her go.
37:18Ethan, thank God.
37:20Ah, uh, Mr. Wright.
37:22Unfortunately, Charlotte's been promised to Mr. Miller now, so...
37:26Even with all your power,
37:28you just can't do everything that you want, right?
37:31I'm sorry, Mr. Miller.
37:33How about we play a game, hmm?
37:35Winner takes the girl home?
37:37That's Joe.
37:39Are you crazy?
37:40I'm not an object, I'm a person.
37:45What? He found Roman?
37:47All right, gentlemen.
37:49Let's do this.
37:51How much are you willing to wager for the girl, Mr. Miller?
37:54That depends.
37:56How much are you willing to throw down yourself their house?
37:59Well, I think we owe our girl a little respect.
38:02I'm willing to wager
38:04one-tenth of my net worth.
38:06One-tenth?
38:08Is that all?
38:10I don't know if that's possible.
38:13Mr. Miller,
38:15Ethan Wright is worth a hundred billion dollars.
38:17A hundred percent.
38:19Ten billion dollars?
38:21Are you out of your goddamn mind?
38:23Ah, don't worry.
38:25We can take all your real estate and your company's value.
38:27I mean, if you add those up, right,
38:29your real estate and your company's value,
38:31five properties, that adds up to...
38:33exactly five billion.
38:35You know, Mr. Cooper,
38:37I think for the sake of your daughter's happiness,
38:40you ought to contribute.
38:42Mr. Wright, this is too preposterous.
38:47I think we should...
38:49If either of you win,
38:51it will count as a win for both of you.
38:53And I would like to have Charlotte
38:55represent me in this game.
39:00How's that sound?
39:02Good.
39:04Are you crazy?
39:06You're having me play alone in a ten billion dollar wager?
39:08Of course.
39:10I'm not going to treat you as a mere object
39:12to be bargained with.
39:14I'm simply giving you control over your own destiny.
39:17Do you trust me?
39:20Okay.
39:27Okay, Mr. Wright,
39:29but don't regret this if you go bankrupt.
39:31We're not talking.
39:33Why don't we play it slick?
39:35Why don't we play a fair and simple game?
39:37Blackjack, five rounds, best of three.
39:38Shall we?
40:08Hit me.
40:29Hit me.
40:35Hit me.
40:36God damn!
40:38I did it.
40:40I did it.
40:42Trust me.
40:44Well played, man.
40:46No, Cooper, you're on your own.
40:49Mr. Wright,
40:51I think we got off on the wrong foot here.
40:53Why don't we play another round?
40:55Mr. Miller, I don't think we should do that, you know,
40:57because you wouldn't want to ruin your reputation
40:59off of just a simple little game, right?
41:01Ryan, please take our gentleman here, Mr. Miller,
41:04into the back to do all the necessary paperwork
41:06because I would not want him to walk off, right?
41:08Cooper. Cooper.
41:10You're going to help me out, Cooper.
41:12You're going to help me out.
41:14Mr. Cooper,
41:16you're not going to go against your bet, are you?
41:19Well, we never actually,
41:21we never agreed to the terms
41:23or to the odds.
41:25That's really how you want to do this?
41:27Fine.
41:29Someone get the surveillance footage.
41:31Sir, it's been settled.
41:33Nothing's broken.
41:35Andrew,
41:37did you see the surveillance?
41:40Mr. Wright,
41:42there's no footage
41:44or evidence of the deal.
41:46I mean, that's a shame.
41:48Yes, that is a shame.
41:50A strict shame.
41:52But I did find out that Andrew
41:54in the security department
41:56was terminated today.
42:05Oh, and I forgot to mention,
42:07you know, because of all of that
42:09that is going on,
42:11I was able to acquire
42:13the casino today
42:15in case something like this happens.
42:17So any surveillance that you're looking for,
42:19I can get you copies of all of it.
42:26Mr. Wright,
42:28I was wrong.
42:30Please, please,
42:32have mercy.
42:34Forget all of it, right?
42:36But that would only come
42:38with specific conditions.
42:42Forget all of it, right?
42:44Forget all of it.
42:46But that would only come
42:48with specific conditions.
42:50Anything, name it.
42:52I would like to name it,
42:54but I think that Charlotte
42:56should be the one to handle this situation.
42:58Me?
43:00Sweetheart, sweetheart.
43:02You know I love you.
43:04You're one of the family.
43:06Even the brat,
43:08even my grandson
43:10is welcome.
43:12That won't be necessary.
43:14I don't want anything
43:16to do with you.
43:18But as far as our conditions,
43:20I think I can come to with
43:22better terms than your assets.
43:24Whatever you want, name it.
43:26First, you won't harass me
43:28or Roman again.
43:30Done.
43:32Second, you'll return my
43:34inheritance to me.
43:36Okay, I'll start there.
43:38And lastly,
43:40you will remove Vanessa's name
43:42from the inheritance entirely.
43:44Are you out of your damn mind?
43:46No, she's not.
43:48Murder.
43:52Seriously?
43:54You're really gonna...
43:56Dad.
43:57Deal.
43:58Dad!
44:00Looks like we're even now.
44:02Bitch.
44:05Mommy, I missed you so much.
44:08Oh, sweetie.
44:10Mommy,
44:12Daddy left everything behind
44:14to find you.
44:16I knew he would be able to save you.
44:18Thank you so much for watching him,
44:20Mrs. Wright.
44:22You're welcome, honey.
44:24Is everything okay now?
44:26Were you able to resolve
44:28all the issues with your family?
44:30Yes, thanks to Ethan,
44:32everything is okay now.
44:34Bye-bye, Granny.
44:36Wait, Charlotte,
44:38I'm sorry if this offends you,
44:40but I have to ask,
44:42who is Roman's father?
44:46I'm sorry if this offends you,
44:48but I have to ask,
44:50who is Roman's father?
44:52Mom.
44:54It's... it's okay.
44:56Um,
44:58looks like I'll have to come up
45:00with some story to get through this.
45:02Um,
45:04he was a very good man.
45:06We were married for two months
45:08and he treated us terribly.
45:11We only have each other now.
