Short filmTranscript
00:00What's your name, kid?
00:01I'm Max.
00:02What's your name?
00:04I'm Dr. Blaine Dexter.
00:05You can call me Dr. Blaine.
00:07Oh, you're the brain surgeon with a penthouse downtown.
00:12And your family's loaded.
00:14You live in Moor Park, don't you?
00:16Are you a detective?
00:18Oh, the nurses want to marry you.
00:21Are you single?
00:22Actually, I have a fiancée.
00:27What's wrong with having a fiancée?
00:29It's just, if you were single, I would have introduced you to my mom.
00:34My grandma always says she needs a good man to take care of her.
00:38And you look like a good man.
00:40Are you her matchmaker?
00:42She used to be married, but now they don't live together anymore.
00:46I'm sorry to hear that.
00:47So if I fall asleep one day and never wake up again, she'd be all alone.
00:52Well, then let's just hope that doesn't happen.
00:55Okay?
00:56Who is your mom, anyways?
00:58Max, I've been looking for you everywhere.
01:00Let's get you to your room, okay?
01:02Let's go.
01:04What's wrong with the little guy?
01:06Leukemia.
01:07Blaine is unaware he is treating his own child, and only he can save him from dying.
01:14Max!
01:16There you are. Where'd you go?
01:18You have to stay in your room, you little troublemaker.
01:21Well, he struck up a friendship with the hot surgeon, Dr. Dexter.
01:26Zoe couldn't believe her eyes. It was her ex-fiancé.
01:29Hey, Max, sweetie, go in. I'll be right there.
01:34Ramona, Dr. Dexter cannot know who Max is.
01:38He can't know his last name. He can't know that he's related to me, okay? Do you understand?
01:41Zoe, what's going on?
01:43Please, just promise me.
01:47I promise you.
01:49Okay.
01:56Okay.
02:03Hello?
02:04Zoe, hey, it's Talon. Are you still at the hospital?
02:07Courtney mentioned you had a family emergency. Is everything alright with Max?
02:11Yeah, but don't worry. I can be back at the office later.
02:14No, no, no, no. It's fine, Zoe. You work enough as it is.
02:18But I am emailing you right now a proposal for a new client. Big budget, big everything. Think you can handle it?
02:30Me? Seriously?
02:42Hello?
02:44Hi, it's me. Zoe. Zoe Fuller?
02:48This was impossible. How could Zoe be expected to work for him?
02:53Given their history. Given everything.
03:02Look, I know you may not want to work with me, but you're a very important client to us and I would like to see this deal through.
03:08So I would appreciate if you could...
03:10Why don't we meet at my place? Tonight. At, say, six.
03:15At your place?
03:17Well, yeah. You need to see my furniture, don't you?
03:20Right. Of course.
03:23Is that okay with you?
03:26Mm-hmm.
03:27The spare key's under the mat in case I'm not there yet. It's my fiancee's, but you can use it. I'll send you the address.
03:33Great. I will see you...
03:37...tonight.
03:40Zoe had almost forgotten Blaine was engaged. She knew she had to be strong. She had to move past her fears.
03:48You got this.
03:50But she had no idea that her darkest fears just might come true.
03:55Dr. Blaine Dexter, please. It's his mother. I need to speak to him immediately.
04:02Of course. This is his house.
04:06Suddenly, Zoe was dizzy. What was she doing?
04:10How could she meet with Blaine alone, after what Blaine's mother had done to her?
04:16She cursed herself for forgetting to eat today. Her mother was right. She wasn't taking care of herself.
04:25You again. I thought I got rid of you the first time.
04:29Katherine, please leave me alone. I'm just trying to provide for my son.
04:32You mean your illegitimate baby that you had with my son?
04:37Did you really think you could weasel your way back in?
04:42But suddenly, in her hallucination, Zoe thought of Max and the life she wanted to provide for him.
04:50Screw you, Katherine.
04:52Zoe decided right then and there she wasn't going to let the Dexter family dictate her life.
04:58You can't scare me anymore. I'll show you who Zoe fully really is.
05:02But what did Zoe just walk into? Will Blaine stay with his fiancée, despite his growing feelings?
05:08And when will Zoe run into her attempted murderer, Katherine Dexter, again?
05:13Wow. So this is where Blaine lives.
05:17Be professional, Zoe. He's moved on.
05:21Have you been waiting long?
05:23Blaine, your house is amazing. Why do you need an interior designer?
05:28For our new home. Me and my fiancée.
05:33This doesn't have to be weird. We're both adults, right?
05:38I know you've moved on, and I have too.
05:43Is that why you were so jealous of sister being treated by me?
05:48I wasn't jealous.
05:51I wasn't jealous.
05:53You know, she reminds me of a younger you.
05:56Impulsive.
05:59Flirty.
06:02So let's eat first.
06:17Our second date.
06:19I'm serious, Blaine. You need to stay professional.
06:23I already told you. I'm engaged.
06:26And you are... single?
06:30I'm married.
06:31But Zoe was lying. She used to be married.
06:35But things changed.
06:37Good for you.
06:43You can leave those. We're waiting on another person. Thank you.
06:50Who are we waiting for?
06:53Who do you think?
06:55Blainey.
06:56Sophia Quincy. Everyone knew Sophia Quincy.
07:00The heiress to the Quincy Corporation, an aerospace conglomerate.
07:04This was the kind of woman Catherine Dexter wanted Blaine to be with.
07:09It all made sense.
07:10Sophia, lovely to meet you, Chloe.
07:13Actually, it's...
07:14Sorry.
07:15Sorry.
07:16Look at us.
07:17Look at us. We're like kids.
07:20Let's talk interior design.
07:22Yes. Yes.
07:25I have some lock-ups together if you wanted to take a look.
07:34Zoe couldn't deny how nice Sophia was.
07:39Gorgeous, rich, and kind.
07:42How could Zoe possibly compete with that?
07:51I'm so sorry. I... I actually have to go.
07:55Can't it wait?
07:56No. No, it's my son. He needs me.
07:59Oh, you have a son?
08:01How darling.
08:03Blainey and I cannot wait to have kids.
08:06Right, sweetie?
08:07Yes, I get a grip.
08:09As Quincy, I will be in touch with you.
08:11Dr. Dexter, good to see you.
08:15Good to see you.
08:17Do you know her?
08:18Hardly.
08:19Little did Blaine know that he already had a child with Zoe.
08:24She dropped this.
08:26Zoe?
08:27But Zoe could never let him find that out.
08:30Oh my God, that's the heart of the sea necklace.
08:33It was the priceless necklace Blaine had given Zoe years ago.
08:38He couldn't believe that she still had it, after all this time.
08:43Could that mean she still held a torch for him?
08:46Like he did for her?
08:50Why would a low-level interior designer have something this expensive?
08:53She's not low-level.
08:56She's not low-level.
08:58Why would a low-level interior designer have something this expensive?
09:01She's not low-level.
09:08Hey, what's going on? Where's Max?
09:10He had an episode. They stabilized him. He's fine.
09:13You can visit him soon.
09:15But they want to run a lot more tests.
09:18Tests? What kind of tests?
09:22The expensive kind.
09:23Money was tight.
09:25But Zoe knew she had a fallback option.
09:27I'm sorry, Zoe. I know money's tight for you right now, and just...
09:33Zoe?
09:37Zoe, are you okay?
09:38What just happened?
09:39The only hope Zoe had of paying for Max's treatment was gone.
09:46Blaine.
09:50So what's a married woman doing on my doorstep in the middle of the night?
09:54Look, I'm just going to go do the chase.
09:57Do you have my necklace?
09:58Don't you mean my necklace? Since I'm the one who gave it to you.
10:01Blaine, please. Not now. I just... I need...
10:05For what?
10:07For remembering a guy you left behind all those years ago?
10:10For no reason?
10:13You broke my heart, Zoe.
10:15I'm sorry.
10:23Blaine could never know the truth.
10:25That she was forced to leave.
10:28Forced for her own safety.
10:30We can do this. We can.
10:32Wait.
10:36What?
10:38Turn around.
10:42Turn around.
10:43Could he tell how badly she wanted him?
11:02Zoe had what she needed to pay for Max's treatments.
11:06Hi, Lucy.
11:07Max will be receiving experimental treatment for the next few weeks.
11:11But my boss called and they need me in Scottsdale for work.
11:15Is there any chance that you could handle visiting Max for me just while I'm gone?
11:19Of course, Zoe. We'll take care of him, of course.
11:23No, no, no, no, no, no.
11:25It hit Zoe. How natural Blaine was with Max.
11:29How compatible they were.
11:31Maybe life didn't need to be so lonely.
11:35It was time to tell Blaine the truth.
11:41Will Zoe face off with her nemesis?
11:44What will Catherine do when she sees that both Zoe and Max are alive?
11:54And will Blaine ever find out that Max is his son?
11:57And will Blaine ever find out that Max is his son?
12:01Will he be the donor match that could keep Max alive?
