Short filmTranscript
00:00I will kill you. Make no mistake. If you try to get close to Blaine, I will end your life.
00:11But suddenly, Zoe thought of Max, and the life she wanted to provide for him.
00:17Screw you, Catherine.
00:19For four long years, Zoe was scared to death because she knew that Catherine was after her life, and her cancer-ridden son.
00:27But now, she is no longer scared, even after what happened four years ago.
00:34How did you even know I was pregnant?
00:36A woman always knows.
00:39Too bad I have to kill you.
00:46Blaine! Blaine!
00:48You're pathetic. You really think my son would give up his status as a surgeon to be with you?
00:53Mom!
00:55I trusted you.
00:59Don't bother calling for help. The maids already know where to dump your body.
01:11Sweetheart!
01:12Hey.
01:13Why don't you pick up?
01:25911, what's your emergency?
01:27That night, I died.
01:35Or at least, a part of me did.
01:38But that was only the beginning of a love story I never thought I'd live to tell.
01:46Because I wasn't the only one who survived.
01:49Thankfully, Max survived.
01:51Hey, Mom.
01:52But shortly after his birth, Max was diagnosed with leukemia.
01:58He'd been in and out of hospitals ever since.
02:03Hey, sweetie.
02:05We brought you both dinner.
02:07Oh, thanks, Mom.
02:09Thanks.
02:10How's Max?
02:11Yeah, he's good. Just sleeping. Needs to rest.
02:15What's wrong?
02:16He just keeps asking if he's ever gonna have a dad.
02:19Why don't you just tell the real father to show up?
02:22Whoever he is.
02:23But Catherine had threatened her son, Max, if anyone ever found out that he was Blaine's son.
02:28Why don't you take Zoe out with you to Honest Bar, as you're always going to?
02:32Ooh.
02:34Hmm.
02:35No.
02:36I don't need my older sister babysitting me.
02:39Well, thank you. I know you're just trying to help.
02:43But I don't feel comfortable going around dating people when my son is in here.
02:48When he's cured, I'll have more time.
02:50Zoe could never forget that face.
02:53It was Blaine Dexter, the father of Max.
02:57And somehow, he was now working in the same hospital where her son was being treated.
03:05Who is that?
03:07Hi.
03:08Excuse me.
03:09Who is that?
03:10Hi.
03:11Excuse me.
03:12Who is that?
03:14Oh, that's Doctor.
03:16Doctor Dexter, our new surgeon.
03:18Great, yeah.
03:19Is he single?
03:20Ziva.
03:23Hey, I really appreciate you two for visiting.
03:25I'm just feeling so tired.
03:28Can we go?
03:29Sure, sure, sure.
03:32Zoe couldn't believe that out of all the hospitals in the city, this is the one Blaine worked at.
03:38She knew she had to protect herself and Max.
03:41It was for Max's own good.
03:43But how long could she avoid Blaine before he finds her out?
03:48Zoe had always said she'd find love when Max was cured.
03:52But she was starting to worry.
03:54What if that day never came?
03:56Hello?
03:58Hello?
04:00Earth to Zoe.
04:02Sorry, I'm so out of it.
04:04Well, you better focus, girly.
04:05I hear there's a big new project coming down the pipeline.
04:08But you didn't hear that from me.
04:10Seriously?
04:11Mm-hmm.
04:12Big hot shot with tons to spend.
04:14I really hope Talon finally gives me a chance.
04:16I really need that commission.
04:20Max's hospital bills.
04:27Talon Tailor Designs.
04:28Courtney speaking.
04:31Zoe, it's for you.
04:33Your sister's in the hospital.
04:35What?
04:37Hello?
04:40Yes, yes, of course. I'll be right there.
04:44My sister injured herself last night trying to get the attention of some guy.
04:48Shocker.
04:49Cover for me?
04:51Always.
04:52It seems like no matter what, Zoe just can't seem to escape the hospital.
04:56Ziva?
04:57What happened?
04:59Did Linda call you?
05:00Yeah, she said you were throwing yourself at some guy.
05:03Was not. I was dancing and I tripped.
05:07Besides, now the hot surgeon can save my life.
05:10Are you even injured?
05:12Maybe. Maybe not.
05:14Let's let the doctor decide that.
05:16Ziva, you can't just waste this doctor's time. What is wrong with you?
05:19Todd, I knew you were going to be a buzzkill about this.
05:21Okay, you know what? Get up. We're going home.
05:24Hi, Ms. Fuller. Sorry to keep you waiting.
05:27Your brain scans came back.
05:28I'm sorry. I didn't realize you had a guest. I can come back.
05:30No, no, no. Come on in. I was just going to ask for you.
05:34Perfect. Look, I don't see any cause for concern on your scans, so I think we can release you.
05:41What? No. I mean, I'm telling you there's something wrong. I don't feel right.
05:48There must be other tests you can do, right?
05:53Let's take a look.
05:56Well, this light were your eyes?
06:02It was him. The man Zoe had loved all those years ago.
06:07And the same one who happens to be the father of her sick child.
06:13Okay.
06:15Look, Ziva, I can usually tell the difference between a patient who is actually sick and one who isn't.
06:22What do you mean, doctor?
06:25Would your friend here be able to drive you home?
06:27Home? My head feels awful, doctor.
06:30I think I need to stay for another night or two.
06:33Ziva, I kind of need to focus on the patients who really need me.
06:36Maybe you're just dehydrated, you know, from your wild night.
06:40You know what? Maybe you're right.
06:43Zoe, can you bring me some water?
06:46Zoe?
06:55No.
07:04Oh, God.
07:05I know.
07:08Okay, I got you.
07:10It's your game, not that.
07:12No, no.
07:16Zoe forgot how magnetic Blaine's touch had always been.
07:19How he could ignite so much inside her, simply through his hands.
07:26You can let go of my hand now, Zoe.
07:29Oh, yeah, sorry.
07:34Um, okay, well, Ziva, I think we'll have you transferred to another unit.
07:39Another unit? No, I don't want another doctor. I want you.
07:43I need to focus on the patients who actually need me, okay?
07:46And, Ziva, word to the wise, even if I wasn't engaged, your little trick wouldn't have worked.
07:52I don't condone being with a woman who abuses my trust.
08:01Zoe kicked herself for having false hope.
08:04Of course Blaine had moved on.
08:06Why can't you let me have anything for myself?
08:09You're not supposed to be here, Ziva.
08:11What is your deal with him anyways? Why was he so cold to you?
08:14Zoe didn't know how to tell Ziva about her complicated history with Blaine.
08:19That he was the man that fathered Max.
08:21But now was not the time or place.
08:27I don't know.
08:28Okay, well, if you're just going to suck up my attention, then you can leave.
08:35Bye.
08:36Hey.
08:37Yeah.
08:38Bye.
08:41Hello?
08:42Zoe, hey, it's Talon. Are you still at the hospital?
08:45Are you still at the hospital?
08:47Courtney mentioned you had a family emergency.
08:49Is everything alright with Max?
08:51Yeah.
08:52Yeah, actually, it wasn't Max this time.
08:55It was my sister.
08:57But don't worry, I can be back at the office later.
09:00No, no, no, no, it's fine, Zoe.
09:02You work enough as it is.
09:04But I am emailing you right now a proposal for a new client.
09:11Big budget, big everything.
09:13Big everything.
09:14Think you can handle it?
09:16Me? Seriously?
09:18Seriously. Seriously.
09:20He wants to meet tonight at 6pm at Waterford International's restaurant.
09:26Yeah, I'll be there.
09:32Finally, some good news.
09:35Things were finally looking up for Zoe at work.
09:43But she had no idea this dinner would be a brush with fate.
09:47Reservation under the name Fuller?
09:49No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
09:51You've got to be kidding me.
09:53No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
09:56Please don't see me, please don't see me, please don't see me.
10:00Telling it to your ears, this is Zoe speaking.
10:02Are you joining me for dinner or not?
10:15You are my new client?
10:20Yes.
10:23You are my new client?
10:29And you are my new interior designer.
10:33I can call my boss and have him put somebody else on the project, given our history.
10:39That might be best.
10:41Don't be silly.
10:43We can be adults, right?
10:45Besides, I know how talented you are.
10:53Okay, well then, let's just dive right in, huh?
10:57Thought it might be a good idea to start getting your input with what you envision for your home.
11:01Tone it on the mood.
11:03Going for your space?
11:08Let's eat first.
11:13Whatever you say.
11:16Boss?
11:18Were you always this testy?
11:22Always.
11:23Neither could deny it.
11:25The chemistry between them was electric.
11:28I thought that the wood made a nice contrast with the lighter colors.
11:32I really like the wood textures here.
11:34Yeah, I do.
11:35You're definitely onto something.
11:36I thought the textures were really interesting.
11:38Yeah.
11:47Oh.
11:48I'm sorry.
11:49If I'm overloading you, we definitely don't have to figure out everything tonight.
11:54No, it's not that.
11:57What is it?
12:01Why didn't you ever call, Zoe?
12:04Excuse me?
12:06Why did you leave?
12:09So suddenly.
12:10I had no idea where you went.
12:12How could she tell him the truth?
12:14What his own mother had done to her?
