00:00Bonjour! My name is Andrea from Paris. Please like and s-
00:03Nah, I'm just kidding, guys. It's me again.
00:05Gotcha! You didn't know I spoke multiple languages, Verdado.
00:09So, where were we?
00:10Oh yeah, my band almost broke up, my manager tried to take control of my life, my father was in an accident,
00:15my boyfriend was keeping a huge secret from me, and my mom had come back into my life after almost ten years.
00:21Am I forgetting some other misery?
00:22Yeah, I'm also really hungry.
00:24Oh, right! I hadn't eaten anything since before the concert.
00:27But at that time, we had more important things on our plate.
00:30Alice, I told you to get away from him!
00:32Who does she think she is to tell me what to do?
00:34No! First, you owe me an explanation.
00:37Why have you left? Where have you been all these ten years?
00:39Why have you never called? Why are you coming back now? Why-
00:42Well, I guess she owed more than one explanation.
00:44Maybe we should leave.
00:46And miss the showdown?
00:47Yeah, let's give them some privacy.
00:49Yes, better. What are you even doing here in the first place?
00:51I just- we'll wait outside.
00:53No! Nobody leaves!
00:54And you better start talking before we start improvising a bad cop, good cop scene.
00:59And no, Luke, you can't be the good cop.
01:01But Alice, no excuses. Just spill the beans.
01:04My mom took a seat and a deep breath, then remained in silence for a few minutes.
01:08I couldn't wait to know the truth.
01:09I was impatient, nervous, stressed, and- and hungry, too.
01:13But most of all, I was tired.
01:15And then she started talking about her life, you know, blah, blah, blah.
01:19Some really revealing stuff, and other things, and then...
01:23The end.
01:24I'm sorry, guys. I'm just exhausted.
01:26It's not that easy to narrate four parts in a row.
01:29The life of an MSA star is harder than it looks.
01:32You know what, guys? Let's mix things up a little.
01:34I know you're probably tired of hearing my voice. At least I am.
01:38So let's hear my mom's story, told by herself.
01:40See you later, alligators!
01:42Hi, kids. I'm Carrie, Alice's mom.
01:44I know most of you must hate me, but hold off until you hear my side of the story.
01:48If you still hate me later, well, don't put it in the comments.
01:51I don't think I can handle having my own haters.
01:54Let's start from the beginning.
01:55After I got married and had Alice, my life was practically perfect.
01:59Lovely family, a career climbing.
02:01Life was looking up.
02:03When Alice was finishing elementary school, my big shot arrived.
02:06Carrie, we want you to lead the case against the Siri Clan.
02:09Oh, yes, yes, I'll do it.
02:11Their time has come. Justice will be served.
02:13The Siri Clan was one of the largest and most dangerous criminal groups in the country.
02:18They were the worst of the worst.
02:20Fixing sports events, moving narcotics, blackmailing politicians,
02:23and even kidnapping kittens in their spare time.
02:26You name it, they did it.
02:27Get ready. This is gonna change your life.
02:30And boy, it did.
02:32I couldn't imagine at the time how much it would cost me.
02:35I couldn't tell anyone about my involvement with the case.
02:38Not even my family.
02:39Still, the clan found out pretty much everything about me.
02:42I soon started receiving threatening phone calls, menacing letters, and gifts of dubious taste.
02:47The prosecution put security on us.
02:49The suit guys followed us all around without Alice and her father knowing.
02:53But that didn't stop the Siri Clan.
02:55Oh, no.
02:56A few days before the trial, I received an envelope in my office.
02:59Inside, there were pictures of Alice.
03:01At school, in the park, coming in and out of the house.
03:04Everywhere.
03:05I thought about calling the police, but it was too dangerous.
03:07I had to do something.
03:09So, I went to see the head of the clan, ready to put my career aside and my principles
03:13in exchange for the safety of my family.
03:15But he was a tough negotiator.
03:17I have a counteroffer.
03:19They not only forced me to sabotage the lawsuit against them,
03:22but also made me work for them as their legal counsel for years.
03:25They never stopped following Alice.
03:27They had no choice but to stay and help them grow their criminal empire even further.
03:32So, that's why I left.
03:33Because now I'm a criminal and I can't even look at you in the eyes knowing everything I did.
03:38Then why did you come back?
03:40After I left, I blocked your numbers, but I never changed mine.
03:43The hospital called me saying there had been an accident and I had to come and make sure you were okay.
03:48I guess I'm still your emergency contact.
03:50Of course.
03:51There's no other person I want to see in an emergency.
03:54He's such a flirt.
03:55Is that so?
03:56It is.
03:57And not only in emergencies.
03:59I think Alice's dad has the hots for Alice's mom.
04:02You don't say.
04:03I'm just glad I get to see you again.
04:05Oh my god!
04:06Dad!
04:06Stop flirting with her!
04:07Have you forgotten that she abandoned us for like ten years?
04:10Are you sure you don't have a concussion?
04:12Let's call the doctors to do more tests.
04:13I'm fine, Alice.
04:15I guess old habits die hard.
04:17He smiled at me.
04:18And even after all these years, just like the first time I saw him playing in the subway, I felt fireworks inside.
04:25How could I help it?
04:26Look at him.
04:26He is as attractive as he was ten years ago.
04:29Maybe even more.
04:30You can tell he's been hitting the gym.
04:32Check out his arms, his shoulders, his-
04:34Okay, okay, okay.
04:35That's enough.
04:36This is still a family channel.
04:37I'll take it from here.
04:38As you can imagine, my mom's story was like a roller coaster for me.
04:42And by the end, I was pretty dizzy.
04:44I didn't know what to say.
04:45But at the same time, I had hundreds of questions to ask.
04:48But first, I needed some air.
04:50Like, a lot of air.
04:51And something to eat.
04:52So I walked out of the hospital.
04:54And then I saw it.
04:55That was really love at first sight.
04:57Thank god.
04:58I ran to it, and I ordered half a dozen hot dogs.
05:01What?
05:01Lady has to eat too, you know.
05:02Besides, can't think with an empty stomach, right?
05:05Bon appetit!
05:06Note from the MSA producers.
05:08Due to the disgusting nature of the following images,
05:10we have decided to censor the next part.
05:12Ugh, I so needed that.
05:14Now I can think straight.
05:16Let's get this over with.
05:17I walked back to the hospital,
05:18but stopped dead in my tracks
05:20when I saw Mom and Camillo talking at the entrance.
05:22We should try to be friends.
05:24After all, we are family.
05:26You don't scare me.
05:27And why should he?
05:28Oh, let me guess.
05:29He probably is the son of the boss of that clan,
05:31and he's just dating me because he has a secret agenda.
05:34Right?
05:35No, not at all.
05:36So why should I get away from him?
05:38Maybe I got carried away.
05:40To be honest, I don't think you guys are really a match.
05:43I mean, you are a Cancer, and he is a Capricorn.
05:46Those are the least compatible signs in the horoscope.
05:48I'm actually a Scorpio.
05:50Oh, then it's okay.
05:52You have my blessing.
05:53Great! Thanks, Mom!
05:55Camillo hugged my mom.
05:56Their performance was as believable as a bunch of elementary school kids
06:00acting out Shakespeare for the end-of-the-year play.
06:02Of course I knew there was something wrong.
06:04I'm not an idiot, guys.
06:06I asked Camillo about it, like, a thousand times.
06:08Why does my mother hate you so much?
06:10What did you do?
06:11But he always came up with different excuses.
06:13It's because I'm Italian.
06:14She hates poets.
06:15She doesn't like my cologne.
06:16I think she must be in love with me.
06:18Eventually, I stopped asking.
06:20I know it sounds crazy, but after so much time,
06:22things were somehow in order,
06:24and part of me didn't want anything to change.
06:26Sure, I knew that things sooner or later were gonna bite me.
06:29And trust me, when they did, it hurt like a dog bite.
06:32The next few days were truly bizarre.
06:35My mom came back into our lives as suddenly as she had left.
06:38Every time I went to visit my dad, she was there.
06:40And the two of them together were absolutely unbearable.
06:44You guys know I'm a sucker for love,
06:45but they were too much even for me.
06:47Here comes the plane.
06:49Can I have a bite of the pilot, too?
06:51Oh, don't start.
06:52Last time, things got out of hand.
06:54Yikes!
06:55When my dad was discharged, she took care of him at home.
06:58They even urged me to come back and live with them
07:00so we could be a happy family.
07:02Before saying no, I actually considered it.
07:04For, like, half a millisecond.
07:06But Mom was determined to get back into my life,
07:08by hook or by crook.
07:10Like some regular mom and her teenage daughter,
07:12we spent all of our time together fighting.
07:14The thing was that I was not a teenager anymore,
07:17and she wasn't like a regular mom,
07:19which made things really weird.
07:21Where are you going? With whom?
07:22What time will you be back?
07:24I want my lawyer here!
07:25I am your lawyer. Talk.
07:27To a club with Moon and Luke around 2.
07:30That's too late. You can go till 12.
07:32But Mom...
07:33No buts, missy.
07:34It was kind of fun to make up for lost time.
07:36You're so mean! I hate you!
07:37I always wanted to yell at my mom
07:39that I hate her for some stupid thing,
07:41like a normal teenager.
07:42Although I would never admit it then,
07:44having Mom back was amazing.
07:46But still, she really had it in for Camillo.
07:49And it wasn't, of course, just because of our Zodiac signs.
07:52She started playing detective,
07:53attempting to sabotage our relationship.
07:55She tailed us in secret to our dates.
07:57Remind you of anyone?
07:59I guess the apple doesn't fall that far from the tree.
08:01Of course, she didn't know about my successful career
08:04as a matchmaker.
08:05Table 5 said you would take care of their check.
08:07Since when is bread so expensive?
08:09After that, she sent me flowers and gifts
08:12from a mysterious secret admirer.
08:14Free chocolate!
08:15But that was nothing.
08:17It got to the point where she tried to kill Camillo.
08:19I didn't know he was allergic to nuts.
08:21I told you, like, yesterday!
08:23Oh, it must have slipped my mind.
08:24Then she went all in and planned a blind date
08:27for me and Kwan,
08:28who was a few days away from returning to Korea.
08:30They had to admit that it was a beautiful date,
08:33and Kwan looked so attractive.
08:35But I had a boyfriend, and he had a girlfriend.
08:38I'm so sorry my mom put you up to this.
08:41Don't worry.
08:42It's always nice to spend some time with you.
08:44Won't your girlfriend mind?
08:45I don't have a girlfriend anymore.
08:47She left me.
08:48She said my heart was still entangled with something here.
08:51And what is that something here?
08:53I think you already know.
08:54Kwan smiled at me,
08:56and I blushed so much
08:57that I could have become a stunt double for Poe.
08:59You know, the red Teletubby.
09:01Change the subject, Alice.
09:02This could get out of hand.
09:03I don't know what my mom has against Camillo.
09:06She hates his guts with a passion,
09:07but he didn't do anything.
09:09I think you should trust your mom.
09:11I know you two have a complicated history,
09:13but she must be doing this for a very good reason,
09:15and you can't keep ignoring it.
09:17At first, I thought Kwan was only saying this
09:19because he was jealous.
09:20Then I started to think he had a point.
09:22Turns out, his words were absolutely right on target.
09:25When I got home that same night,
09:27I did what I promised I would never do.
09:29I went through my boyfriend's computer.
09:31Guys, this is me not setting a good example.
09:33Don't follow my lead on this one.
09:35Remember how I said things would come back
09:37to bite me in the butt?
09:38Well, they did.
09:39More than a dog bite.
09:40It was a crocodile bite.
09:42Among Camillo's files, I found a book about me.
09:45Yes, you heard right.
09:46Camillo was writing a book about my life behind my back.
09:49Actually, no, he wasn't writing it.
09:51It was already finished.
09:53What a to-no-one surprise.
09:55It turns out that behind it all was Trevor.
09:58He had signed over my image rights
09:59from our contract to Camillo
10:01to write a bestseller airing all my dirty laundry.
10:04For the next few hours, I read the entire book.
10:07Not only did it expose my deepest fears and desires,
10:10those I had confided in him,
10:12but it also detailed my mother's criminal history
10:14with the Siri clan.
10:15If this gets out, she will go to jail.
10:18And the worst part of it all,
10:19the book was due out in two days.
10:21Just as my world was collapsing,
10:23the Collapser opened the door.
10:25Hi, honey.
10:26I was more than ready to use my drumsticks
10:28to turn him into a human skewer.
10:30But I didn't.
10:31I understood that my only advantage at that moment
10:33was that he didn't know that I knew.
10:35So I pretended that everything was fine
10:37and took the first opportunity to get the hell out of there.
10:40We're out of milk. I'm gonna go buy some.
10:42We have milk.
10:43But not almond milk.
10:44Since when do you like almond milk?
10:46Since forever.
10:47You don't know every single detail about me.
10:49Well, maybe I lost it for a moment.
10:51Once I escaped from there,
10:52I met with my mother.
10:53She confessed to me that she knew about Camillo's book.
10:56A few weeks ago,
10:57my boss told me that someone was snooping
10:59about my past and the trial.
11:01They thought they were the prosecutors,
11:02but when I saw the photo,
11:04I recognized Camillo immediately.
11:06I'd seen him in every photo and interview of you two.
11:09You follow my career?
11:10Of course I do.
11:11I'm your biggest fan.
11:12My mom found out he was writing a book,
11:14but when she tried to warn me,
11:15he threatened to reveal another big secret.
11:18My mother was betraying the clan.
11:20She was preparing a case with the prosecution,
11:22taking advantage of her inside knowledge
11:24to bring down the Ciri clan once and for all.
11:27If that came out,
11:28not only would the case collapse,
11:29but we would be in grave danger.
11:31The release of the book would have the same result,
11:33so we soon regrouped with my dad, Moon, Luke, and Quan
11:36to shut down the release of my unauthorized biography.
11:39That's a sentence I never thought I'd say.
11:41We split up and went to different districts
11:43to buy all the copies of the book
11:45that were ready to circulate.
11:46Yeah, we spent a lot of money on books.
11:49In the meantime, my mom managed to get a legal order
11:51to stop the printing of new copies,
11:53arguing that they did not have my authorization.
11:56Amazingly, we managed to stop the book from coming out.
11:59We gathered all the copies and made a huge campfire.
12:02Not great for the environment, I know.
12:04Again, don't follow my lead on this one, guys.
12:06Anyone want a marshmallow?
12:07You're still leaving tomorrow?
12:08Maybe you can stick around for a bit.
12:10I'd love to, but I have to go home.
12:12But you should visit me.
12:13Maybe I will.
12:14Sadly, our victory was short-lived.
12:16Feeling defeated, Trevor and Camillo
12:18leaked the book virtually, and it soon went viral.
12:21What ensued was absolute chaos.
12:23My name became a trending topic,
12:25and the news went crazy with my mother's criminal story.
12:28Soon, reporters were swarming my house
12:30and my parents' house looking for a comment.
12:32My phone literally exploded
12:34from the number of calls and messages it received.
12:36To make matters worse, Camillo went on TV
12:39to present the book, badmouth me,
12:40and reveal that my mom was a double agent for the government.
12:44She will pay for this.
12:45From that moment on,
12:46we became the number one target of the Siri clan.
12:49Things were completely out of hand,
12:51and for the first time,
12:52I feared for my life and the safety of the people around me.
12:55I had to do something, but I didn't know what.
12:57Alice, there's no time for discussions.
12:59Get in the car.
13:00We have to go to the Witness Protection Program.
13:02Now. We are in danger.
13:03I can't do it, Mom. You two go.
13:05Alice, this isn't up for discussion.
13:07No, it's not, Dad. I'm sorry.
13:09I ran between the cars until I lost them.
13:11It's not that I didn't want to go with them,
13:13but I was a public figure.
13:14The reporters and paparazzi would be after me like hounds.
13:17I knew that if I went with them,
13:19I would put them in even more danger.
13:21I needed to go somewhere where no one knew me.
13:23Oh, that's it.
13:24Kwan, is it too soon to visit?
13:26Not at all. I'm glad you're here.
13:28I held Kwan's hand as we waited for the plane to take us to Korea.
13:31I took a deep breath.
13:32It felt like walking away from a fire.
13:35Who said you can't run away from your problems?
13:37Hi, everybody.
13:38Welcome to a new Where Are They Now episode.
13:41So let's uncover the latest on the Cupid's Secrets crew,
13:44Alice's parents, Luke and Moon.
13:46They just disappeared faster than my motivation on a Monday.
13:49But what everybody really wants to know is where is Alice herself,
13:54the villain of her own story?
13:56Some say she became a Buddhist monk.
13:58Others, that she had facial surgery to look unrecognizable.
14:01But something went wrong, and she became a circus freak.
14:04Some even claim that she was seen living in the middle of the snowy forest,
14:08like the Yeti.
14:09But still, the mystery remains unsolved.
14:12Where is Alice?
14:13I'll give you a Where Are They Now.
14:16You gossip-mongering, face-twisting, snitch-ditch-twitch character hack.
14:19This villain is right here,
14:21crafting a comeback that'll knock your ratings into the next ice age.
14:25And talk about facial surgery?
14:26You should check yourself first.
14:27Wicked witch of the bargain bin Botox,
14:29duck lips meeting frog eyes in a meme-gone-wrong disaster?
14:32No surgeon could fix that.
14:33Calm down. She's not even here.
14:35No, don't shut it off.
14:36I want to hear more of her nonsense.
14:38Great. Now the power cuts out on me.
14:40As if everything else wasn't enough,
14:42the electricity there had a mind of its own.
14:44It always went out with the worst possible timing.
14:47Okay, okay.
14:48You know, I'm not usually the nagging type.
14:50More like a silent ninja.
14:52Until someone turns on that spotlight of lies,
14:54you might think we stepped out of a time machine into the past.
14:57Well, almost.
14:58So this is where Alice is,
15:00in the middle of nowhere, picking up cow dung.
15:02I know, gross.
15:03I should give you a recap of the last year,
15:05but I don't really feel like it.
15:07Okay, okay, don't leave. I will.
15:09But just because you've been putting up with me since episode one.
15:12Before I start, like and subscribe,
15:14and don't forget to never watch MSA on TikTok.
15:17Real ones know that YouTube is way cooler.
15:20So, after Camillo's book,
15:21Kwon and I escaped to a small rural town in South Korea
15:24where no one knew or cared who I was.
15:26This is nice.
15:28It was not.
15:29At least no one will find us here.
15:31Yeah, because no one knows this place exists.
15:34Seriously, I tried searching it on Google Maps
15:36and it just showed a shrugging emoji.
15:38Still, Kwon absolutely fell in love with our new rural life.
15:42He put together his own farm
15:44and it was like he had found his place on Earth.
15:46For me, it wasn't that easy.
15:48Alice, collect the cow dung so we can use this for fire.
15:51Not this again.
15:52That day, I shouldn't have worn red
15:54because it made the bull crazy mad
15:56and he chased me all over the farm
15:58until I fell head first into the cow poop pile.
16:01Ugh, I hate this.
16:03Look on the bright side.
16:05It's good for your skin.
16:06Oh, really?
16:07Then come here.
16:08I'll make you a good hydrating mask.
16:10Stop running!
16:12Living with Kwon was awesome,
16:13but it never felt like my real life.
16:15I just wasn't myself there.
16:17To make me feel better,
16:18Kwon once took me to a nice restaurant in the city,
16:21but I felt so paranoid that I went with a full disguise.
16:24Maybe that wasn't the best option
16:25to keep the attention away from me.
16:27Everybody kept looking at me,
16:29especially one strange guy
16:30with a big ginger afro and sunglasses.
16:33That guy keeps staring at us.
16:34Can you blame him with hose drumsticks in your hair?
16:37And this dress looks like you committed a fashion crime.
16:39Duh, I can't leave them out.
16:41And this outfit took hours of careful consideration
16:44and about five outfit changes.
16:45As Kwon went to pay the bill,
16:47I turned to that creep and vanished into thin air.
16:49After that, I decided to stay in the village
16:52and never return to the city.
16:53Eventually, I kind of got used to living there,
16:56but then a letter arrived and changed everything.
16:59It was an invitation to Moon and Luke's wedding.
17:02I hadn't talked to anyone from home since I left.
17:04I thought they'd eventually forget about me,
17:06but turns out Kwon used to drive out of town to call Moon,
17:09and she wanted me to be her maid of honor.
17:11Still, I wasn't ready to come back yet.
17:14Sooner or later, you'll have to face your fears.
17:16I'll do it later then.
17:18I have to go. She's my baby sister.
17:20Of course.
17:21We said our goodbyes and Kwon left,
17:23so I had some alone time.
17:24After a few days, I started to get really worried.
17:27Kwon wasn't answering my calls
17:28or responding to any of my texts.
17:30I waited and waited, but no news.
17:32Finally, I called Moon,
17:34but she didn't know anything about him either.
17:36Nobody did.
17:37Before I could think about it,
17:38I was already on a plane crossing the world
17:40to save my boyfriend.
17:42As soon as I landed,
17:43I did a complete makeover to avoid being recognized.
17:45I had more important things to do
17:47than deal with the paparazzi.
17:48After that, I went straight to the police station.
17:51I knew who was behind it all.
17:52The Siri clan kidnapped my boyfriend.
17:54Do you have any proof?
17:56Um, I have a strong feeling.
17:58Does that count as proof?
17:59Maybe he just ran away from you
18:01after reading the book.
18:03The whole police station laughed at me.
18:05I wanted to throw all their donuts into the garbage,
18:07but I didn't.
18:08I just stole a few for later.
18:10Besides, we already captured Siri clan's leader.
18:12What?
18:13After I left the police station,
18:14I had so many questions in my head.
18:16Just then, I saw Trevor drive by in a cool Porsche
18:19and stop not too far away.
18:21My heart was beating super fast,
18:23and I decided to follow him.
18:24I hid in an alley where it was kind of dark.
18:26I couldn't see much,
18:27but then I heard him talking on the phone.
18:29Keep a low profile.
18:30We can't afford any slip-ups right now.
18:32I had planned this all along.
18:34I even made that foolish Camillo
18:36reveal the clan's secrets in his book
18:38to have the leader imprisoned
18:39so I could take over the empty throne of the Siri clan.
18:42I did a lot for him,
18:43and that thankless man never recognized me.
18:46Now, see who the boss is?
18:48Me, Trevor.
18:49Only Trevor.
18:50The terror.
18:51He went inside,
18:52and I crept closer to the building's window
18:54and peeked inside.
18:55There he was,
18:56stood before a group of exhausted kids.
18:59Kids, if you don't do it my way,
19:01you'll be swimming with the fish.
19:03Yes, you heard me right.
19:04You'll be forced to clean my aquarium again.
19:07Get ready.
19:08One, two, three, go!
19:09Come on!
19:10Don't make me hit the snorkel gear.
19:12Trevor not only carried on with the clan's illegal affairs,
19:15but also used his power to create an academy
19:18for young talents to build his own musical empire.
19:21The police weren't helpful,
19:22so it was up to me to stop him and save Quan.
19:25Time to bring down his criminal empire.
19:27Still, I needed help with that.
19:29I needed my friends back.
19:30I'm sorry for leaving and ghosting you guys,
19:32but I really need you.
19:33It's okay.
19:34We understand.
19:35And we've got to find Quan.
19:37And destroy Trevor.
19:38Don't forget about that.
19:39They told me that over the last year,
19:41Trevor blocked all their contracts and concerts,
19:43sending his army of little singing robots to replace them.
19:46He kidnapped my boyfriend and also ruined my band?
19:50This time, it's personal.
19:52Yeah, I know.
19:53That sounded so cool.
19:55So, I told Moon and Luke about my master plan.
19:58So, your plan is to just break into the headquarters of a criminal group
20:01and steal illegal stuff?
20:03Yeah, pretty much it.
20:04Great, sounds bulletproof.
20:05That night, we snuck over to their lair.
20:07At the entrance, there were two security guards.
20:09Okay, we made it pretty far.
20:11Call it a night?
20:12No, we have to take them out.
20:13So, Alice, you do it.
20:15What? Why me?
20:16They won't recognize you with your new makeover.
20:18Distract them while we try to find another way in.
20:20Before I could protest,
20:21Luke and Moon threw me towards them.
20:23First, I thought I could use my Riz to win them over.
20:26Content warning, guys.
20:27This might turn into a cringe fest.
20:29I walked to them, flirtatious,
20:30but I looked like I was just learning to walk for the first time.
20:33Excuse me, guys.
20:35Do you have names or can I call you mine?
20:38I'm Frederick.
20:39Mike.
20:40No, I meant I thought your names were Google
20:43because you two have everything I've been searching for.
20:46Well, that one bombed even harder than my first pickup line.
20:49I need to work on my flirting game.
20:51In a desperate distraction attempt,
20:53I twisted swiftly, aiming for a master stroke.
20:55Fate intervened.
20:56My wig slipped off.
20:57Uh-oh.
20:58You!
20:59So, time for plan B.
21:00Hmm, what was plan B again?
21:02Stop her!
21:03They jumped on me, but at that exact moment,
21:05their radio started playing my favorite song.
21:08I went full John Wick mode for real.
21:10I grabbed the two drumsticks that I always carry around
21:13and turned them into lethal weapons.
21:15Oh, I forgot to mention that during my time in Korea,
21:17I became a black belt in taekwondo.
21:19Silly me.
21:20After beating up those two,
21:21I tried to find Moon and Luke, but I got to Trevor's office.
21:24I turned it inside out, but found nothing about Kwon.
21:27I was about to give up when I came across something mind-blowing.
21:31A manuscript from Camillo.
21:33Cupid's Secrets Part 2.
21:35A sequel to my story.
21:36Yeah, my head exploded.
21:38Quite literally.
21:39It detailed with amazing precision
21:41my life in that little town in Korea.
21:43Every little part of it.
21:45How the heck did he know all this?
21:47Then, as James Bond's villains, they appeared.
21:49Oh, look who's here.
21:51So good to see you, babe.
21:53I love your new style, but ew, you smell like cow poop.
21:56Trevor and Camillo were at the door of the studio.
21:59I lunged at them.
22:00You fuck!
22:01But an army of guards appeared out of nowhere and held me.
22:05Uh-uh, no, dear.
22:06This is not a kung fu movie.
22:08Guards, just take this little rat away.
22:10Trevor, wait.
22:11Don't be so hard.
22:12She is my ex, after all.
22:14Alice, I know what you must be thinking.
22:16How did I know all that?
22:18Just take a look at the notes.
22:20I looked at the notes.
22:21It was some kind of daily report.
22:23A really complete one.
22:25Then, my heart stopped.
22:26The name that signed all the notes was Kwan.
22:29It isn't true.
22:30Kwan would never betray me like that.
22:32You're lying.
22:33Tell me where he is.
22:34Well, you thought the same about Camillo,
22:36and look where that got you.
22:38You see, Alice, everyone's playing their own game.
22:41Kwan, in this case, is playing hide and seek.
22:43Hide until the book is out and seeking a fortune.
22:46He's gonna be rich,
22:47and he just had to sell us his relationship with you.
22:49A bargain, if you ask me.
22:51Tears began to roll down my cheeks.
22:53Once again, my boyfriend stabbed me in the back.
22:56I told you it was a mistake to fire me, kid.
22:58Now leave with your dumb friends.
23:00And Luke, just a piece of advice.
23:02Next time, don't yell when trying to sneak in somewhere.
23:05Oh, yeah? I was caught in a half-open window.
23:07What should I have done?
23:08Probably not screaming like a maniac.
23:10Push my butt up! Push my butt up!
23:12I was completely defeated.
23:14I didn't even fight back when his goons kicked us out.
23:16Don't go too far this time.
23:18I need good material for our next book.
23:20Remember, all good things come in threes.
23:23Luke and Moon kept asking me what happened inside,
23:25but I didn't say a word.
23:27I just said goodbye and went straight to the airport
23:29to disappear once again.
23:31And this time, for good.
23:32Just as I was about to board the plane,
23:34I got an audio message from Moon.
23:36So, remember that our wedding was supposed to take place today,
23:38but got canceled after Kwan disappeared?
23:40Well, surprise, it's happening.
23:42Because Kwan is back.
23:43What?
23:44We couldn't find another date available for over a month,
23:46so we're gonna get married now.
23:47We're just waiting for you. Hurry!
23:49Furiously, I rushed out of the airport to confront him.
23:52Still, I did a quick pit stop at the hairdresser.
23:54Then I did my makeup and put on my dress.
23:56What?
23:57I was still furious, but it was a wedding.
23:59I had to look great, and I did.
24:01I burst into the ceremony, and I saw him.
24:04Next to Luke, who was waiting for Moon at the altar.
24:06I dashed toward him like lightning.
24:08Alice, you look...
24:09Wonderful? Beautiful?
24:10Yeah, I know.
24:11What's wrong?
24:12Are you for real?
24:13Let's see, where should I begin?
24:15Maybe by the fact that you disappeared from the face of the planet for days?
24:19You told me to do that!
24:20I did what?
24:21Yeah, we were being really loud, in a church,
24:24and everybody was staring at us.
24:26Guys, maybe we can discuss this later?
24:28When did I tell you to disappear?
24:29You sent me a message saying that I should hide and get rid of my phone
24:32because the Siri clan was after me.
24:34So, stayed locked in a hotel all this time.
24:36It was quite boring, by the way.
24:38I even learned how to walk on walls.
24:39I'll show you later.
24:40But I couldn't miss Moon's wedding, so I'm here.
24:42I'm so glad you're here today, too, by the way.
24:44That didn't make any sense.
24:46I hadn't sent any message.
24:47He was lying again.
24:49What about the book?
24:50Yeah, I found your little report notes.
24:52But how?
24:53You wrote everything!
24:54All our private moments and secrets,
24:56just to sell them to Trevor and Camillo?
24:58Wait, what?
24:59I did write all of that, but I didn't sell anything.
25:02I lost them at the airport.
25:04Like I'm gonna believe that.
25:05I would never sell that.
25:06I just took notes of everything because,
25:08well, it's quite embarrassing.
25:10More embarrassing than getting your butt kicked
25:12in a church by the bridesmaid?
25:14Okay, okay.
25:15The truth is I wanted to write my own book about you.
25:18To show the world how nice and cute
25:20and wonderful you truly are.
25:22Yeah, this is the part where you go,
25:24aww.
25:25Still, at that moment, I was confused and shocked.
25:29I didn't want to believe him,
25:30but when I looked into his eyes,
25:31I saw that he was telling the truth.
25:33I felt so embarrassed.
25:35But then I saw him hiding among the rest of the guests.
25:37That weird-looking ginger afro guy
25:40that used to spy on us in Korea.
25:42Stop that guy!
25:43He ran, and I chased after him.
25:45Just when he was about to escape,
25:46Moon appeared, rocking her wedding dress
25:49and blocking his way.
25:50He turned around,
25:51and I hit him with a crazy taekwondo kick
25:53that sent his afro and glasses flying.
25:56He was Camillo.
25:57He had followed us to Korea to spy on us,
25:59and when he found out about Kwon's notes,
26:02he stole them from him at the airport.
26:04As if that wasn't enough,
26:05he and Trevor sent the message pretending to be me
26:08and telling Kwon to hide.
26:10Why the heck are you here?
26:11I needed to see the showdown.
26:13It's the ending of my sequel.
26:15You and your freaking sequel.
26:17I'm gonna kill you right now.
26:19Let me.
26:20Kwon stepped forward and headed for Camillo.
26:22He grabbed him and shoved him,
26:24ready to punch his lights out.
26:25But I stopped him.
26:26He deserves it.
26:27But he's not worth it.
26:28Yeah, the last thing I need
26:30is to get punched by a farmer.
26:32I turned around and slapped Camillo so hard,
26:35he spun like a startled ballerina.
26:37When he finally stopped twirling,
26:39Moon gave him another slap,
26:41sending him into another whirlwind.
26:43But I wasn't done with him.
26:44Listen to me good, you heck of a writer.
26:46I'm about to end your whole career.
26:48First, I took care of Trevor.
26:50I sent Luke, disguised and armed with a camera,
26:53to his music academy.
26:54Turns out, Trevor had those poor kids
26:56rehearsing day and night,
26:58like a twisted version of School of Rock.
27:00He got arrested for child abuse,
27:02and the Siri clan vanished.
27:04My family was finally free.
27:06So I went to get them out of the witness protection program.
27:09When my dad opened the door,
27:10he had the longest beard ever.
27:12Gandalf, is that you?
27:13Atlas.
27:14Dad hugged me tightly.
27:16Soon, Mom joined in.
27:17I can't breathe, guys.
27:19My parents moved back to Rochester
27:21and got re-engaged.
27:22Another wedding on the way.
27:24With my mother's help,
27:25I sued Camillo for the rights to my own story.
27:28During the trial,
27:29I had the light that he had plagiarized other writers.
27:31Camillo lost all profits from the book,
27:33sequel rights,
27:34and his reputation.
27:35Last I heard,
27:36he was working as a waiter again.
27:38I said cappuccino,
27:39not macchiato,
27:40you spaghetti brain.
27:42Finally, I was free.
27:43I had my voice back.
27:45Eventually, I found the perfect place to tell my story.
27:48So, thanks, MSA.
27:49They don't pay as much as Hollywood,
27:51but they are way cooler.
27:52Oh, and the rest of Luke and Moon's wedding was awesome.
27:55Our band even got together for a quick reunion show.
27:58Then, we partied like there was no tomorrow.
28:01But there was.
28:02I could have never done this without you.
28:04Of course you could have.
28:06So, what now?
28:07My real life is here.
28:09My family, my friends, my music.
28:11But mine isn't.
28:12We both started crying
28:13because we knew that despite that we loved each other,
28:16we had to follow our own path.
28:17Sometimes, love is about letting the other one go.
28:20Don't worry, guys.
28:21I'm not gonna end this five-part story with such a downer.
28:24You know your girl Alice better than that.
28:26So, Kwan returned to that little town life
28:28that he loved so much.
28:29As for me, the band got back together
28:31and we traveled the world playing our music.
28:34Many years later,
28:35my music took me to a familiar country.
28:37I took a trip to the countryside
28:39and reached a lovely farm.
28:41Then, I saw him.
28:42Kwan looked so handsome.
28:44I remember the first time we met.
28:46He was acting like a tough guy
28:48and I was dressed as a goth.
28:49Safe to say, we've both had quite the glow-up since then.
28:52When he saw me, he smiled.
28:54And then, everything.
28:55Silence.
28:56Time stood still.
28:57Electricity.
28:58Heart racing.
28:59And, of course, the famous fireworks.
29:02I ran to him.
29:03And that was it, guys.
29:04The end of my crazy and long journey.
29:07I guess love always finds its way in the end.
