00:00:00You
00:00:12Coming
00:00:14You were invited to a meeting by the Blackthorn Sawyers
00:00:19In the event of my death all wealth belonging to me will only be inherited by one of my sons
00:00:25Under the condition that he marries a woman of humble background within six months
00:00:29You mean you agreed to sell me like a cheap pimp?
00:00:35You look me in the eye and you tell me that you are fulfilled with everything that you have you must be the all-important
00:00:41Miss Harry and everything you don't have
00:00:43See the both of us getting married to her and that you never had a thought that your life would be much easier
00:00:51What are you doing here? Are you stalking me?
00:00:59Don't tell me you're fucking me
00:01:02Oh, you have magically sworn love with me, don't you?
00:01:05Fuck off!
00:01:06What do you think you're doing here?
00:01:07You've been misunderstanding
00:01:08What's this misunderstanding?
00:01:10No, I'm sorry
00:01:12Get off me!
00:01:13That son of a bitch, I'm gonna fucking kill him!
00:01:17You're fucking lying
00:01:19I was supposed to go to pub school
00:01:21No!
00:01:22You know I'm being fucking serious
00:01:23What do you want? Why are you doing this?
00:01:24Hello, you trying to play?
00:01:29You
00:01:44Can you just get to the point? I'm missing an important meeting
00:01:47I understand, but I can't commence the reading of your father's will without your father's permission
00:01:55What the actual fuck? It's noon and you're drunk already
00:01:59Hello, Frankie
00:02:04Let's get this out of the way
00:02:08Your father's last will and testament, read before his two sons as stipulated
00:02:14In the event of my death, all wealth belonging to me, including cash, properties, shares and stocks
00:02:19Will only be inherited by one of my sons
00:02:23Under the condition that he marries a woman of humble background within six months
00:02:28That's bullshit!
00:02:29We don't know it
00:02:31This is your father's updated will. He was of sound mind when it was revised
00:02:35Revised? When?
00:02:38A few weeks before his death
00:02:39I assure you these are his true wishes
00:02:41If you'll please get seated, son
00:02:43Fuck off, you fucking son
00:02:45Take your fucking seat, Jack
00:02:47Seems there's more we need to hear
00:02:50That woman has already been chosen by me
00:02:52Evangeline Harris
00:02:54She's the daughter of Anna Harris, the woman who nursed and cared for me when I was ill
00:02:58By all accounts, she's a good, decent woman
00:03:00I realize that this stipulation might seem unusual, but
00:03:03To my disappointment, you have both grown overly arrogant and dismissive
00:03:06Of those you consider to be inferior to you in both social standing and in wealth
00:03:10My hope is that it will teach you to sustain a healthy relationship regardless of class or status
00:03:14I pray that everything gets resolved with fairness, love and kindness
00:03:24This makes no sense at all
00:03:26Marrying a stranger?
00:03:28How do we even get in touch with this woman?
00:03:30Evangeline...
00:03:31Evangeline Harris
00:03:32Your father has included contact details for both her and her mother
00:03:36So getting in touch with her won't be an issue
00:03:38You seem a little bit composed, brother
00:03:40Something you'd like to tell me?
00:03:42I beg your pardon?
00:03:43You seem a little calm the whole way
00:03:45A little too well
00:03:47It's almost like as if you already knew what was happening
00:03:49Please tell me that's a joke
00:03:52I'm concerned about how to get up to the bottom of this
00:03:54And you're concerned that I'm just not falling apart
00:03:56You were here before me?
00:03:58God knows for how long
00:04:00Yeah, because I understand punctuality
00:04:03Unlike you
00:04:05You chose to be late, as usual
00:04:07Listen, don't forget that you're daddy's little favorite, eh?
00:04:10And here's what else he gave you, a little hint about the will
00:04:13For fuck's sake, Jack
00:04:15Don't start this shit now
00:04:17We need to be working together, not taking stabs at each other
00:04:21Okay, what do you say, dearest brother?
00:04:25But we all know the truth, and it always will come out in the end
00:04:29Come on, Jack
00:04:30Don't be such a clown
00:04:32Dad would want us to work as a team, no matter what
00:04:36Good things like you really want, huh?
00:04:50I'm sorry, Jack
00:04:51I'm sorry, Jack
00:04:53Hey, this is the hundredth voicemail I've left you.
00:05:22Call me when you get this one.
00:05:23Tell me why you've been looking for me.
00:05:30Speak of the devil.
00:05:32Where the fuck have you been?
00:05:33I've been trying to contact you for days.
00:05:34I've been here, there, you know.
00:05:35No, I don't know.
00:05:36And can you stop playing with that?
00:05:37You always make a mess of things.
00:05:38I'm always trying to control things.
00:05:39Maybe you should understand how things really work.
00:05:40What are you talking about?
00:05:41Are you drunk right now?
00:05:42Because you're not making any sense.
00:05:43I'm not drunk.
00:05:44I'm not drunk.
00:05:45I'm not drunk.
00:05:46I'm not drunk.
00:05:47I'm not drunk.
00:05:48I'm not drunk.
00:05:49I'm not drunk.
00:05:50I'm not drunk.
00:05:51Because you're not making much sense.
00:05:52Nope.
00:05:53The server's a no.
00:05:54Enough of the cryptic talk.
00:05:55And why are you so late to work if you're not on one of your vendors?
00:05:59John.
00:06:00John.
00:06:01You're always focusing on the things that aren't important.
00:06:03Why don't you just leave it all?
00:06:04The things that aren't important.
00:06:06Did you realize that this company didn't die along with dad?
00:06:09We actually have to keep it alive.
00:06:11Well, luckily we have you then.
00:06:13Hey, I better be going.
00:06:14Can't waste your time another time.
00:06:17Where the fuck are you off to now?
00:06:21You pulled a quick one on me, didn't you?
00:06:28To think that I was worried about you, only to find out that you had been in contact with
00:06:31Evangeline Harris.
00:06:32Damn, bro, did you run here?
00:06:34Hey, easy, tiger.
00:06:35What can I say?
00:06:36I'll work better alone.
00:06:37Besides, in this situation, the best man wins.
00:06:38I don't see that both of us are getting married to her.
00:06:39Welcome.
00:06:40Jack, I see you're here early this time.
00:06:41It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:42Yeah, it's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:43It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:44It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:45It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:46It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:47It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:48It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:49It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:50It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:51It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:52It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:53It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:54It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:55It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:56It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:57It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:58It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:06:59It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:00It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:01It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:02It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:03It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:04It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:05It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:06It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:07It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:08It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:09It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:10It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:11It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:12It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:13It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:14It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:15It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:16It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:17It's going to be a bit of a long day.
00:07:19Damn it.
00:07:45Coming!
00:07:49Come on.
00:07:52Mum!
00:07:53What are you doing here?
00:07:54I don't know what you're doing.
00:07:55We were stopping by, right?
00:07:56Eva, you look a mess.
00:07:57How many times have I told you?
00:07:58Your appearance matters all the time.
00:08:06I'm doing housework, Mum.
00:08:07Am I supposed to have a full face of make-up on?
00:08:09Oh, well, I really don't know why you have to live in such a little shabby place.
00:08:13Surely you can find somewhere better.
00:08:16Your standards are so high.
00:08:17It's not like I can afford a mansion on the same salary.
00:08:20And besides, I like it here.
00:08:22It's nice and it's cosy.
00:08:23Well, that's why life presents you with opportunities
00:08:27and you've got to grab them when they're presented to you.
00:08:30I guess.
00:08:31I believe you were invited to a meeting by the Blackthorn Sawyers.
00:08:36Yeah.
00:08:37How did you know about that?
00:08:38Oh, never mind.
00:08:39Why didn't you go?
00:08:40Because it seemed shady.
00:08:42I've never spoken to that man before.
00:08:44And I only know the name Blackthorn because you work for the late Mr Blackthorn.
00:08:49What on earth do they want with me?
00:08:51And you just dodged my question.
00:08:53How do you know about that meeting?
00:08:54Because I set it up.
00:09:02What do you mean you set it up?
00:09:04What business do you still have with our family after your patient died?
00:09:07What's going on, Mum?
00:09:08Calm down, child.
00:09:09Let me explain.
00:09:10You see, when Mr Blackthorn neared his end,
00:09:14he kind of started opening up to me and talking about his life,
00:09:18about his late wife, his two sons Jack and John,
00:09:21for example, twins.
00:09:23And you see, he even asked about my life.
00:09:25That's interesting, but that doesn't quite answer anything.
00:09:28But you see, when we got talking, we realised that we could possibly help each other.
00:09:32You see, he realised that his two sons had a bit of a, let's call it a classist issue.
00:09:38You mean they're pretentious rich boyfriends?
00:09:40That's not surprising, but what does that have to do with anything?
00:09:43Well, you see, he hoped for them to have a little bit more empathy
00:09:46and be a little bit less pretentious.
00:09:48And I said, my daughter actually has the opposite challenge.
00:09:51She's poor and humble and needed to step up socially.
00:09:54What?
00:09:56You told him that about me?
00:09:58Parents talk about their kids.
00:09:59You see, I told him that you were fussy about, you know,
00:10:02the men you were dating lacking in a bit of ambition.
00:10:05And, you know, Mr Blackthorn was really alone at that time
00:10:07and his two boys were always just too busy to visit him.
00:10:10He might have been a little muddled at that point, but anyway, we still came to an agreement.
00:10:15What sort of agreement?
00:10:17Well, he added in his will that one of his sons needed to marry you in order to inherit his wealth.
00:10:24You can't be serious.
00:10:26You're joking, right?
00:10:27No, wait. Let me finish. I am serious.
00:10:32You mean you agreed to sell me like a cheap pimp?
00:10:47You told that old man that I was a sad loser?
00:10:50That I would jump at the chance to marry one of his sons?
00:10:53So what if I don't have a man in my life or many friends?
00:10:56That's my choice! Mine!
00:10:58Now, I don't give a damn what you think.
00:11:00You look me in the eye and you tell me that you are fulfilled with everything that you have
00:11:05and everything you don't have.
00:11:07And that you never had a thought that your life would be much easier if you had more.
00:11:12If you had more money, more status and more opportunities.
00:11:16Yeah, I thought as much.
00:11:18I only ever wanted what was good for you.
00:11:24All the things that I never had in my life growing up.
00:11:28The things I never achieved.
00:11:30So it really hurts me when you imply that I want to pimp you out.
00:11:39What would the sons think about this crazy scheme?
00:11:42Well, you would have known that if you actually went to the meeting that you refused to go to.
00:11:48I'm sorry.
00:11:49That it's to marry a total stranger?
00:11:52A very wealthy stranger, really.
00:11:54Let's see it as something like speed matchmaking.
00:11:58It happens everywhere.
00:12:00They do it on TV reality shows, social media, dating apps.
00:12:04No one's forcing you to do anything that you don't want to do, but let's face it.
00:12:07You won't lose anything by trying at least.
00:12:10What happens if I don't like the guy and I don't want to go through with the marriage?
00:12:13Well, then the Blackthorn sons will just have to sort it out themselves and work through it.
00:12:17At that point, at least they've learned just a fraction of the humility that their dad wanted for them.
00:12:25Maybe I'll meet with the sons and see what it's like.
00:12:28But I can't guarantee anything further than that.
00:12:36My secret is still safe.
00:12:47John Blackthorn?
00:12:49Yes.
00:12:51You must be Miss Harris.
00:12:52Evangeline is fine. Or Eva, if you like.
00:12:55Eva it is, then. I'm John.
00:13:01I hope it's not too forward of me to say this, but you look exceptionally beautiful.
00:13:08You literally just took my breath away right now. You're magnificent.
00:13:13I'm sorry about ghosting the meeting of your lawyers.
00:13:16It just came from out of the blue.
00:13:18I had no idea why my mother's late employer's lawyer would want to meet with me so urgently.
00:13:23It just happened so fast and I didn't really have much time to think about it. I just said yes.
00:13:29So you're aware of the part of my father's will that relates to you?
00:13:33I had no idea. It's quite strange.
00:13:37It's been a bit overwhelming. Even for me.
00:13:42For us.
00:13:44Isn't there supposed to be two of you?
00:13:46You're a Chinese, but I'm supposed to meet with your father as well?
00:13:50You must be the all-important Miss Harris.
00:13:54Speak of the devil.
00:13:59Tell me something. How much are you really going to cost me?
00:14:05Then you must be Jack Blackthorn.
00:14:07Yes, you guys are playing good cop, bad cop.
00:14:10So he came earlier to butter me up with outrageous compliments, and then you swoop in for the attack.
00:14:15What are you insinuating that I'm saying?
00:14:18Am I interrupting something?
00:14:20Oh, don't tell me you're falling for his boyhood routine.
00:14:24Clearly this is an exchange. You for our father's wealth. Don't play dumb.
00:14:29What the fuck is wrong with you? Don't talk to her like that. It's disgusting.
00:14:33Oh, come on. You're coming on so strong, Johnny boy.
00:14:37Johnny boy, don't make the whole innocent crowd think you're so beautiful.
00:14:41Is that what you think a woman is? That we're only valuable for the way we look?
00:14:46No wonder your father loved you and his wealth. You're not only classist, but you're sexist as well.
00:14:51Watch your fucking mouth. You don't know anything about her. Or me.
00:14:55You're using her under the pretext that you're in charge.
00:14:57The fact that you're even here considering this process says a lot about you.
00:15:00You fucking bitch, how much does this cost?
00:15:02Use it to mop up your toxicity, bitch boy.
00:15:05You might go to hell if you're up for it.
00:15:19Evangeline, wait. Hold on a second.
00:15:25Nice one, Jack. Nice one.
00:15:28She's the sweet fly, that one.
00:15:30Those curves. They should be so hot.
00:15:33What the fuck is wrong with you? You made her change her mind.
00:15:36How hard is it to be polite, goddammit?
00:15:38Well, my fault, Miss Flycracker can't take a joke. Besides, she'll be back eventually.
00:15:43Are you sure about that? I don't think you saw how angry she was.
00:15:48Don't worry, Johnny boy. I know women and I saw the fire in her today and she's burning for me.
00:15:54I think you're confusing her emotions.
00:15:56Nah. One way or another, I'll be holding that spark in my hands.
00:16:01Don't tell me now you're interested in her.
00:16:03You were talking down to her that entire time.
00:16:05You call it talking down? I call it flirting.
00:16:08And besides, who can see your sins in less than 20 minutes?
00:16:13I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:16:15There's no denying it.
00:16:17We could clearly see your heart thumping out of her shirt.
00:16:20I'm pretty sure I could make her heart thump a little bit more.
00:16:24Are you sure about that?
00:16:31I guess we'll find out.
00:16:33I can't hear your phone ringing, Evangeline. Open the door.
00:17:03I'm coming.
00:17:09Ignoring your mother. That's such childish behaviour.
00:17:13My mum and I didn't know it was you.
00:17:16The carbs, really. You need to watch your figure. But anyway, we'll talk about that later.
00:17:20I'm here for a different reason.
00:17:22What reason?
00:17:23Or must I spell it out for you?
00:17:25I'm here to speak to you about your meeting with the Black Thorns.
00:17:28I told you what happened.
00:17:30Please don't tell me you came all this way just to talk about it again.
00:17:33Did I teach you nothing about perseverance?
00:17:36You have a chance to change your life and even find love along the way.
00:17:40And you want to throw it away just because of one small little comment?
00:17:44Seriously, what do you mean?
00:17:46Eva, I'm not asking you to reach out or even apologise to them.
00:17:50I'm asking you just to give them another try.
00:17:52I made a promise to Miss Electra and I want to keep that.
00:17:55You think like it's an obligation, but I know you didn't sign anything, no.
00:17:59Don't.
00:18:04Don't.
00:18:10Donald Jack.
00:18:30You've got to be kidding me.
00:18:32John Blackthorn.
00:18:35What are you doing here?
00:18:36Are you stalking me?
00:18:38How did you know I work at this hotel?
00:18:40I'm sorry. I didn't mean to startle you.
00:18:42Well, that's exactly what you've done.
00:18:44You should never sneak up on a woman like that.
00:18:46My bad.
00:18:48I just wanted to talk to you and tell you how sorry I am about the other day.
00:18:52Oh, yeah.
00:18:53I just wanted to talk to you and tell you how sorry I am about the other day.
00:18:57Oh, yeah.
00:18:59Sorry about what?
00:19:01For being a two-faced Mr. Nice Guy?
00:19:03Or for being dumb when your brother insulted me?
00:19:06Eva, I...
00:19:07That's Evangeline to you.
00:19:09Right.
00:19:10Evangeline.
00:19:12I swear to you I was never putting on an act at any time.
00:19:16I meant every word I said about how beautiful you are.
00:19:19I'm sorry I didn't defend you sooner.
00:19:23My brother can be difficult at times.
00:19:27I hope you can give me a chance to make it up to you.
00:19:31Well, that sounded better this time.
00:19:34You know that I was...
00:19:35Look out!
00:19:43That was close.
00:19:45I really thought he was messing off me over.
00:19:46If he hadn't grabbed me, I'd be lying on the roof by now.
00:19:48You sure you're okay? You're not hurt anywhere?
00:19:51I'm fine. You just missed me.
00:19:53You saved me. You're my hero.
00:19:55No, no. It's nothing like that.
00:19:58I just happened to be looking at the road at the right time.
00:20:02You know, I've been trying to get in contact with you for the past few days.
00:20:07You're the one who's been blowing up my phone.
00:20:10How did you get my number?
00:20:13Well, I...
00:20:14When you weren't answering and I needed to get a hold of you,
00:20:17I called Mr. Frank, who then called...
00:20:19My mother. She loves the metal.
00:20:22Can I give you a ride home?
00:20:24Yeah, I'd really appreciate that.
00:20:27Okay.
00:20:48Again, I'm sorry about what happened
00:20:51and how something that started so nicely ended up so messy.
00:20:55I'm sorry that you almost got hit because of me.
00:20:58It's okay. I'm over it now.
00:21:00And that guy wasn't looking where he was going.
00:21:03Yeah, but I could have made sure you weren't.
00:21:07Sorry.
00:21:09No, it's okay.
00:21:16Um, this is me, so...
00:21:20Would you like to come in for a drink?
00:21:22Yeah, that'd be great.
00:21:26This buckle's kind of stuck.
00:21:30Here, just press down like this.
00:21:40Dammit, it's work. I need to take this.
00:21:44Um, thanks.
00:21:51I will never forget
00:21:53how scared you were when you thought a dead frog
00:21:56would come back to life and haunt you.
00:21:58I swear it looked me straight in the eye
00:22:00before it took its last breath,
00:22:01probably memorizing my face so it could have
00:22:03its afterlife vengeance attack.
00:22:05Wasn't it for a school project?
00:22:07You were so scared that you were shivering all night
00:22:09with the lights on even up to midnight.
00:22:11It's funny now, but back then it was a very different matter,
00:22:15I can assure you.
00:22:17You know what?
00:22:18Your mum was in stitches about the whole thing.
00:22:21She wasn't, she believed me.
00:22:23Well, come on, at least she just made you not feel terrible.
00:22:27That's probably true.
00:22:29But in my ten-year-old brain, mum believed in
00:22:31the ghosts of vindictive frogs.
00:22:34Yeah, she was something else.
00:22:38I really do miss her.
00:22:40Yeah, me too.
00:22:43And Dad too, of course.
00:22:46I always look at this photo of the four of us, together.
00:22:53We used to have dinner as a weekly tradition.
00:22:56Why don't we do that anymore?
00:22:58I don't know, I think things got sad after mum died
00:23:03and we became busy, Dad died, and I think we just
00:23:08lost the feeling of what it's like to be a family again.
00:23:12Why don't we change that?
00:23:17I've lost my appetite.
00:23:19I'll leave you to it, Johnny Boy.
00:23:35Ah, Johnny Boy, welcome.
00:23:37Take a seat.
00:23:39Look, I got the chef to make your favourite meal.
00:23:42Wow, it all looks so good.
00:23:45And you're in a very good mood tonight.
00:23:48Yes.
00:23:49Thought after the way you stormed out last night
00:23:51I'd have to be worried about you.
00:23:53Don't worry about that, I've got that under control as usual.
00:23:55Well, even better now.
00:23:57Well, cheers to the night.
00:23:58Cheers.
00:24:01I hope you've worked up a big appetite.
00:24:03It's going to be another three-course meal.
00:24:05I'm as hungry as I've ever been.
00:24:07Cheers.
00:24:09So, I noticed Miss Harris called you yesterday.
00:24:14I didn't realise you guys were becoming so close.
00:24:16I'm so surprised.
00:24:18It's nothing serious.
00:24:20I reached out to apologise to her
00:24:22and we've been friendly ever since.
00:24:24So you're making progress, right?
00:24:26Sneaking slowly into her heart.
00:24:29One phone call at a time.
00:24:31What's next?
00:24:33Sex on the beach?
00:24:36Jack, please.
00:24:38Don't start that now.
00:24:40Don't ruin a good dinner.
00:24:47What is it?
00:24:50Guess who's going to have Ava work under him?
00:25:06Hello.
00:25:12Hello.
00:25:13You asked to see me?
00:25:15Yes, I did.
00:25:16Have a seat.
00:25:18I understand.
00:25:19What are you doing here?
00:25:21Well, I bought the hotel of the old owners.
00:25:23It's as simple as that.
00:25:24Are you shocked to see me since the first time we met?
00:25:26Have you spoken about me at least?
00:25:28Well, I know you and my brother have been speaking
00:25:30and what do you think, I'm just going to vanish into thin air?
00:25:34No, I didn't ask about you.
00:25:36You were not a prick that day.
00:25:38Watch your tone, young lady.
00:25:40You don't want to be getting fired speaking to the boss now, do you?
00:25:44Of course not.
00:25:46You don't have to worry.
00:25:47He's not going to ask you to know me or anyone.
00:25:49Not yet.
00:25:50I think HR would hate to hear about that.
00:25:53I don't give a shit about HR.
00:25:55I own HR, which means I own you.
00:25:58Well, that'll be all, Miss Harris.
00:25:59You can get back to work.
00:26:01But my brother doesn't need to know about this.
00:26:28Just the man I was looking for.
00:26:30When is it this time?
00:26:31Take a look at this.
00:26:33Blackthorn Corporation isn't doing as badly as we feared.
00:26:36It's not as good as when Dad was here, but it's still alive and kicking.
00:26:41I've got some news, but I'm not sure if you're going to like it.
00:26:45I think it can wait.
00:26:46Can we take a look at this first?
00:26:48You can tell me after.
00:26:49No, can't wait.
00:26:52Okay, you have my attention.
00:26:55What is it?
00:26:56I'm afraid I have to relinquish some of my responsibilities at Blackthorn.
00:27:00What?
00:27:01Why?
00:27:02I bought a hotel.
00:27:03You bought a hotel?
00:27:04The Belki Hotel. I've just signed the papers.
00:27:06Why the fuck would you do that?
00:27:08You're barely even here. Now you've gone and bought a hotel?
00:27:11It's only for my own fun.
00:27:13You don't have to worry.
00:27:14I just thought I'd let you know because I won't be around much longer.
00:27:17All two things settled down.
00:27:20That's the hotel management. I best be off.
00:27:30This is quite a surprise.
00:27:33I mean, it's a good surprise.
00:27:35Please come in.
00:27:40So, this is your place?
00:27:44Yeah.
00:27:45Welcome to the hell of a house, Luce.
00:27:50I didn't mean...
00:27:53Isn't this what your family wanted for you?
00:27:55To mingle with the lower class?
00:27:57I'm just guessing with you.
00:28:00Okay.
00:28:02These are for you.
00:28:06Who sent those?
00:28:07My favorite, I think.
00:28:09How did you know?
00:28:11I made a good guess.
00:28:22Somehow, I don't believe it was a random guess.
00:28:26Come on, tell me the truth.
00:28:29Okay, fine.
00:28:31You told me you really liked chrysanthemums since you were little,
00:28:34and your grandpa used to grow them in his garden.
00:28:38Yeah, I do like them.
00:28:39They're beautiful and unique.
00:28:46I'm glad you love them.
00:28:48I almost got you wild orchids.
00:28:49I mean, I do like those too.
00:28:52I would have cooked dinner, but I do have chocolate chip ice cream.
00:28:59My favorite flavor.
00:29:01What's yours?
00:29:02Boring old vanilla ice cream.
00:29:05Vanilla isn't always boring.
00:29:09It's...
00:29:11It's nice and...
00:29:15Plain.
00:29:17I'm sorry.
00:29:18I was trying to think of another adjective.
00:29:20Um...
00:29:24It's just so nice.
00:29:30You're staring. Do I have something on my face?
00:29:33No.
00:29:35You're perfect.
00:29:37You're so beautiful, Angela.
00:29:42I'm quite handsome, so...
00:29:46May I kiss you?
00:29:50Sure.
00:30:06No.
00:30:07Sorry, I don't know what came over me.
00:30:10Sorry, we just called a payment.
00:30:13Right. That's all.
00:30:16Did you know Jack was going to buy the hotel where I work?
00:30:19Is this some kind of weird game you guys are playing of inheritance?
00:30:23No.
00:30:24I had no idea he was going to do that.
00:30:27My brother talks cryptically, and he can be hard to decode sometimes.
00:30:30He didn't mention anything until a few minutes before you called.
00:30:33How come he can afford to buy a whole freaking hotel?
00:30:36Aren't you guys supposed to be hanging on to your father's properties?
00:30:40Yes, we are.
00:30:42But his purchase didn't exactly make a dent in our savings.
00:30:46We both have healthy trust funds.
00:30:48Jack just took some money out of his to buy the hotel.
00:30:52Well, isn't it just fantastic which boys can do that?
00:30:56So what do I do?
00:30:57I like my job and I need it, but Jack told me to watch my back.
00:31:01I wasn't supposed to tell you that.
00:31:04I think he was just saying that to freak you out.
00:31:06He wouldn't have told me about the hotel if he didn't want me to know.
00:31:09I can't believe my new boss is trying to marry me so he can get a couple million dollars.
00:31:14More than a couple billion, actually.
00:31:18Wow, I feel even more special.
00:31:22I should be going.
00:31:24Let me know if anything.
00:31:33I know you'll probably want to leave, but would you like some pizza?
00:31:36It's good.
00:31:37I don't want to intrude.
00:31:38I'm just inviting you to join me.
00:31:40Just two friends eating pizza and chatting about life.
00:31:44Is that what we are? Friends?
00:31:46I think so, but close enough at least.
00:31:49Even though I kissed you?
00:31:51Yes, even though you kissed me.
00:31:53Fine.
00:32:03This is so cozy.
00:32:05I know.
00:32:07I can't remember the last time I was just hanging out like this.
00:32:10You're welcome.
00:32:20I swear to God.
00:32:25What? What was that? I noticed the look on your face.
00:32:28It's nothing serious.
00:32:30Just work.
00:32:31I don't have to deal with it right now.
00:32:37I'll be right then.
00:32:39I'm just...
00:32:43still thinking about the fact that, you know, Jack...
00:32:47is now my boss.
00:32:52Will you bring it up with him?
00:32:54No.
00:32:56Not yet, at least.
00:32:58I think it's best if he thinks he has the upper hand for now.
00:33:03What happens next?
00:33:05I don't know, Eva.
00:33:08But I promise you, he'll do nothing stupid.
00:33:11You have my word.
00:33:24Hello, my beautiful Eva.
00:33:25Work is hectic this morning.
00:33:26Need a meeting until late hour.
00:33:27How does dinner sound tonight?
00:33:29You wish, John.
00:33:31I can't wait thinking about Liberty.
00:33:34I have a great team.
00:33:36Eva?
00:33:38Are you on your phone right now?
00:33:39This is not your personal space.
00:33:42Must I remind you that you're at work?
00:33:44And you must be focusing on that.
00:33:45My apologies, sir.
00:33:46I was just checking my calendar.
00:33:48Ah, your calendar.
00:33:49How timely.
00:33:51I promise I'm up to date on my morning tasks.
00:33:54And I'm just currently grading the candidates for the CSJF law.
00:33:57I promise I haven't been slacking off.
00:33:59Well, I'll be the judge of that.
00:34:00Because I'll be supervising all interviews from now on.
00:34:03Of course.
00:34:05Of course.
00:34:06Of course, Mr. Blackhorse.
00:34:07Sir.
00:34:08Hmm.
00:34:09You're marvelous now, Miss Harris.
00:34:10There's something I need to show you.
00:34:11And it's urgent.
00:34:21Please shut the door behind you.
00:34:29Is there something wrong?
00:34:31As a matter of fact, there is.
00:34:36What's this?
00:34:37Go on and open it.
00:34:38It's a little present from me to you.
00:34:40I'm sure you'll find the contents quite interesting.
00:34:46What's this?
00:34:47When was this taken?
00:34:49These are pictures of my brother with his little fling in a fancy restaurant.
00:34:53This isn't real.
00:34:55This is AI docket or something.
00:34:56I knew you'd say something like that, so I have even stronger proof.
00:34:59Yes, you're my friends of the restaurant.
00:35:01I am quite close with the son.
00:35:03And he could easily get the live feed.
00:35:05And now I owe him.
00:35:07One way or another, this is fake.
00:35:09And I believe you.
00:35:11Oh, you have magically fallen in love with your husband, haven't you?
00:35:14Don't tell me you're fucking him.
00:35:17Oh, wow.
00:35:18I didn't see this one come in.
00:35:20Wow.
00:35:21Johnny Boy is working so quickly.
00:35:23Good on him.
00:35:24Since you have, you know, benefited out for him,
00:35:26why don't you give him a call and ask for the camera footage yourself?
00:35:38There's only one way to find out now, isn't it?
00:35:40Call him.
00:35:55Hello, it's me.
00:35:59How's it going?
00:36:04You're in a meeting right now, is that correct?
00:36:14Don't be so sad.
00:36:17These women don't last long.
00:36:19And I'm sure you know that.
00:36:20It's just a business meeting.
00:36:22But anyone with eyes and ears and a head
00:36:24will know that's nothing like that.
00:36:27Why are you doing this?
00:36:29Oh, I want to make sure that you know
00:36:31what kind of man my brother really is.
00:36:33And let me guess.
00:36:35You're the upstanding brother?
00:36:37Who's doing his betterment for the world?
00:36:39Is that what this is?
00:36:43You can't pretend, even for a second,
00:36:45you haven't had a girlfriend.
00:36:47You're not even married.
00:36:48You can't pretend, even for a second,
00:36:50you haven't done this for your own nefarious purposes.
00:36:53No matter how selfless you want to appear,
00:36:55you're no better than your brother.
00:36:57In fact,
00:36:59I see more similarities than differences in you two now.
00:37:02What's your turn now?
00:37:04Have you forgotten I'm still your boss?
00:37:06You don't want to get fired now
00:37:08over losing your temper for some man, do you?
00:37:16That's okay, you go back to your office now.
00:37:18I'll take care of that.
00:37:20No, let me handle the interviews.
00:37:22I don't need a day off.
00:37:24Okay, fine.
00:37:26But make sure you're efficient.
00:37:28I don't want to hear any reports
00:37:30of my junior manager bursting into tears
00:37:32while screening you stuff.
00:37:34That would be highly embarrassing.
00:37:36I'll make sure everything goes well.
00:37:42Hey, you.
00:37:45How was your meeting?
00:37:47You know, the one that took
00:37:49hours and hours of your time?
00:37:51It must have been really important.
00:37:54No, I'm afraid I won't be able
00:37:56to make it to dinner tonight.
00:37:58I'm not feeling too good, so
00:38:00we'll have to make a rain check
00:38:02until further notice.
00:38:04That's one quick delivery.
00:38:06Mom, it's you.
00:38:08There you are.
00:38:10I've been knocking for ages.
00:38:12Your TV was so loud.
00:38:14I brought you ice cream.
00:38:16That's not necessary.
00:38:18I'm doing okay.
00:38:20Are you sure you're okay, though?
00:38:23You don't look so good.
00:38:25I'm fine.
00:38:27I'm fine.
00:38:29I'm fine.
00:38:31I'm fine.
00:38:33Have you been to the doctor?
00:38:35Is everything okay with you, John?
00:38:37You sound pissed off with me.
00:38:39What's wrong?
00:38:41You're acting strange, and
00:38:43you haven't even let me come in.
00:38:45I don't think this is a conversation
00:38:47we should be having in the hallway.
00:38:49Strange?
00:38:51Or am I just not all over you
00:38:53like the other night?
00:38:55I guess you want a repeat.
00:38:57Too bad.
00:38:59It's not gonna happen.
00:39:01What the fuck is that supposed to mean?
00:39:03The ice cream's melting.
00:39:05I don't give a shit about the melting ice cream.
00:39:07Like it ruins your expensive shoes.
00:39:09The last time we spoke,
00:39:11you were cheerful.
00:39:13Now you're acting like a dog
00:39:15pissed in your cereal.
00:39:17If I said or did something wrong,
00:39:19just let me know, okay?
00:39:21Fuck off.
00:39:23That's what I want to tell you.
00:39:26Where is this coming from?
00:39:28You didn't give me a single clue
00:39:30that anything was wrong,
00:39:31and now you're blowing it up in my face.
00:39:33You know, I ordered Chinese food, but
00:39:35my friend will do.
00:39:37Are you even listening to me?
00:39:39You're acting like I'm not even talking to you.
00:39:41You came to check up on me,
00:39:43and you've done that.
00:39:45You brought me my ice cream,
00:39:47you can go on your merry way.
00:39:49Don't you dare touch me.
00:39:51What the hell, Evangeline?
00:39:53You're being childish and lashing out
00:39:55for no good reason.
00:39:57If you didn't want to see me,
00:39:59you could have given me a single phone call.
00:40:01Yeah, whatever.
00:40:03You can see yourself out.
00:40:05Have a nice lunch.
00:40:07Eva, wait!
00:40:15But of course I'll pay you back,
00:40:17just because you say such a thing.
00:40:19You know how things go.
00:40:21One good turn turns to another.
00:40:23Anyway, I've got to go.
00:40:25I'll call you back later. Bye.
00:40:31Hey, brother.
00:40:33What are you doing here?
00:40:35Is it a crime to come check up on family?
00:40:38What are you really doing here, John?
00:40:40I doubt family concerns brought you here.
00:40:42Why don't you come and see Eva?
00:40:44I know you know she works here,
00:40:46and she does look gorgeous in that tight body.
00:40:48You keep her name out of your mouth.
00:40:50So I am right.
00:40:52You did come all this way just to see your little girlfriend.
00:40:54Don't tell me you've had a little rocky patch now, have you?
00:40:57How do you know about that?
00:40:59Maybe she told me.
00:41:01How do I get the feeling that you had something to do with it?
00:41:04Well, why don't you ask yourself?
00:41:06I'm sure she'll be in here any second.
00:41:08Well, funnily enough.
00:41:10Why don't you count down with me in five, four, three...
00:41:12These are the reports you asked for.
00:41:24These are the reports you asked for.
00:41:26Ah, please come in. Right on time.
00:41:28I just finished speaking with IT.
00:41:29They've made the changes you've requested already,
00:41:31and I was able to export the new data into the system.
00:41:34Perfect.
00:41:36Look, why don't you come to the big first,
00:41:38and see if you'd be comfortable over there.
00:41:43You're really going to act like you can't see me right now?
00:41:45Eva, that'll be all for now.
00:41:47We do need a cross-check to make sure the figures are right,
00:41:50and make sure the data is all foolproof, all right?
00:41:52Okay, we'll get on to that right now.
00:41:54And I'll check the new schedules.
00:41:58Please move out of my way.
00:42:00You're acting like I'm radioactive.
00:42:02John, can you please step aside?
00:42:04I'd better get to work, thank you.
00:42:06You stay out of this, Jack.
00:42:08It's none of your business.
00:42:10This is between me and her.
00:42:12There is nothing between you and I.
00:42:14In fact, I doubt there ever was.
00:42:19Fucking asshole!
00:42:21What bullshit did you tell her now?
00:42:23Watch your tone, young man.
00:42:25You're not the boss around here.
00:42:28If you don't watch yourself, young boy,
00:42:30I might just get screwed at high school with your little bumper I'm adding you now.
00:42:33Whatever you did, I'm going to get to the bottom of it.
00:42:42It will be less stressful if you have a stronger drink.
00:42:46No, I'm good with this, thank you.
00:42:48Has my brother tried contacting you?
00:42:50He was quite adamant last time.
00:42:52No, he hasn't.
00:42:54That's good.
00:42:56Some of the staff have been approved to turn off,
00:42:58so we just need to address the budgets.
00:43:00Let me see that.
00:43:02Yeah, that's much better.
00:43:04I can really see it's much better now.
00:43:07I'll just need your signature here, and here.
00:43:11Have I told you how beautiful you look today?
00:43:13What?
00:43:15Don't act all surprised.
00:43:17You surely have to know how you act around me when you dress like that.
00:43:19Some of us here, why are you so shy?
00:43:22I think we're done for the day.
00:43:23No, no, no.
00:43:25We don't want to be touched.
00:43:27What the hell are you doing?
00:43:37Jack, that hurts! Let go of me!
00:43:39That's exactly what I'm doing.
00:43:41I'm not saying I hate you.
00:43:43Jack, stop.
00:43:45Why are you so resistant?
00:43:47I know you want to play.
00:43:49I'm so, so sorry.
00:43:53It's pictures, but you won't get away with it.
00:43:56I thought I told you not to cry.
00:43:59Fucking bitch, where are you going?
00:44:13Cousins.
00:44:15That's a half a million dollars.
00:44:16Half a million dollars, yeah.
00:44:18Fine.
00:44:20I know you didn't just call me out of the blue for nothing.
00:44:25I was coming to you because I know you're your daughter's best interest at heart.
00:44:28She's especially good with people.
00:44:32Now, I can tell that you know your way around words.
00:44:35Can we just get straight to the point, please?
00:44:37Alright then.
00:44:39You're aware of stipulations in my father's will?
00:44:41Sure.
00:44:43I want to marry your daughter.
00:44:44I understand.
00:44:46And I need you to smooth it over.
00:44:48Because, well, you're the only one your daughter looks up to.
00:44:51What type of misunderstanding was this?
00:44:53I mean, why don't you just go to her and ask her forgiveness?
00:44:55I mean, my daughter doesn't hold grudges.
00:44:57I know my daughter.
00:44:59Well, that's between your daughter and I.
00:45:01I hope you understand.
00:45:03No, you see, I don't understand.
00:45:05Because you just made it my business by bringing it to me.
00:45:07Now, tell me.
00:45:09Was this a misunderstanding of a sexual nature?
00:45:10And was this misunderstanding non-consensual?
00:45:15As I said, this is between your daughter and I.
00:45:17And we're all adults and we all know what happens behind closed doors.
00:45:20Now, you see, you are more than a twisted rich prick
00:45:24if you think you're going to pay me to hush my daughter.
00:45:32Sorry.
00:45:34Yes, very so.
00:45:36Now, I don't know what tricks you have up your sleeve,
00:45:38but I can tell you this.
00:45:40There's nothing compared to the wrath of an angry woman.
00:45:42Wow.
00:45:44And you can best believe that if you did something bad to her,
00:45:47you'll pay for it.
00:45:49That I'll have to agree with.
00:45:51But how angry and heartbreaking would your daughter feel
00:45:54when she knows this is the first sweetener that you got from the Blackthorns?
00:45:58Sweetener? I don't know what you're talking about.
00:46:00I'm not done, Miss Harris.
00:46:02I didn't just come to you because I was feeling sentimental
00:46:04about your relationship with your daughter.
00:46:06I came here to offer you more money,
00:46:07an additional payment that you got from my father to introduce you.
00:46:11I really don't know what you're talking about.
00:46:13Spare me the bullshit.
00:46:15I've seen your signature in a couple of documents.
00:46:17I just wonder how sentimental your father was when he changed the will.
00:46:20To the best of my knowledge,
00:46:22only a minor will need a guidance from a child.
00:46:24What do I know?
00:46:26That's not what I want.
00:46:28But I do know that in the court of law,
00:46:30a carer such as yourself taking the pain from a poor man's dying...
00:46:34What do you expect me to do, Jack?
00:46:35Hm?
00:46:37Wave this magic wand and just miraculously have my daughter forgive you?
00:46:41I don't know about your will, but in mine it doesn't work that way.
00:46:44It's beautiful now, isn't it?
00:46:46Maybe you should mention John or Alice Lee's name to your daughter.
00:46:48Maybe that will help.
00:46:50I'm sure you'd be more successful and a lot richer if you knew how to play your cards right.
00:46:53Maybe you might get the forgiveness of your daughter.
00:46:55I'm not sure, but that's up to you.
00:47:06It's so long, the Bellevue Hotel.
00:47:21Hey, darling.
00:47:23How are you doing?
00:47:25Not nice.
00:47:27I thought I wasn't seeing you until our lunch next week.
00:47:29Well, I was in the neighbourhood and I thought I'd bring you some pizza.
00:47:32I'm in a good mood.
00:47:33Thank you for the pizza.
00:47:35Let's have it straight away.
00:47:37Pleasure.
00:47:39So, how have you been doing?
00:47:41You look really relaxed today.
00:47:43You, um...
00:47:45You haven't told me that my hair looks like a bird's nest or the baggy clothes I'm wearing.
00:47:49The air up there is seriously blowing.
00:47:51Well, okay.
00:47:53So, I can't even give you a compliment now and it's taken the opposite way.
00:47:56I can't even say nice things to you now.
00:47:58Rather tell me how is things with that Blackthorn boy that you were smiling about?
00:48:01Blackthorn boy that you were smiling about the other day?
00:48:04You mean John?
00:48:06We're no longer together.
00:48:08I honestly don't know if we ever were.
00:48:10Oh, okay.
00:48:12And what about the other one?
00:48:14I think it also starts with a J.
00:48:16Jack?
00:48:17Yeah, his name is Jack.
00:48:19How's things with him, Lars?
00:48:21I heard he was actually your boss or something.
00:48:23Things between us are how they should be.
00:48:25What does that mean?
00:48:27Is there something else going on?
00:48:29You know that you can talk to me, sweetie.
00:48:31Okay.
00:48:36There was an incident between me and Jack.
00:48:39He got physical.
00:48:41Were you guys drinking?
00:48:43No, mum. I wasn't drinking.
00:48:45Neither was he.
00:48:47Okay, I'm just asking.
00:48:49I mean, what do you think is going to happen if you're alone with your boss?
00:48:52I mean, he's a handsome boy and you guys must be attracted to each other.
00:48:56What are you saying? That I wanted this?
00:48:58I didn't.
00:48:59I'm just saying you can use this to your advantage.
00:49:02I mean, things didn't work out with you and John.
00:49:04Why not just go with the other brother?
00:49:06That is so messed up.
00:49:08He tried to assault me.
00:49:10Can you hear yourself?
00:49:12I've just been through something really traumatic and I won't hear any more from you.
00:49:16I can't do this with you anymore, mum.
00:49:18Every time I think we're trying to bond, you just start making unreasonable demands and...
00:49:23Can you just please, please?
00:49:25Fine.
00:49:29Fine.
00:49:53Jack, Mike.
00:49:55The woman in the photos is engaged to someone else.
00:49:59What?
00:50:08Hey.
00:50:10Thank you for agreeing to see me.
00:50:16You sounded desperate.
00:50:18It was the least I could do.
00:50:20I know what it feels like not to be heard.
00:50:25I'm sorry about that.
00:50:27I did that because I just wanted to lash out and hurt you the same way you hurt me.
00:50:32For the hundredth time, I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:50:36Could you please get straight to the point?
00:50:38Why do you want to see me now?
00:50:40It's been weeks since you slammed your door in my face.
00:50:42I wanted to apologise because I acted unfairly.
00:50:48I was shown pictures and a live video of you and beautiful Asian women.
00:50:53Who? Alice Wee?
00:50:54Alice Wee?
00:50:56That's ridiculous, she's a client.
00:50:58I know that now, but at the time it seemed like you guys were much more than clients and...
00:51:03Trust me, I just saw you guys live.
00:51:06Who showed you those pictures and videos?
00:51:09Who wanted to tear us apart?
00:51:13It was Jack, wasn't it?
00:51:15Yes, it was Jack.
00:51:17He completely manipulated me.
00:51:19He had access to security footage and I completely fell for it.
00:51:24What were you falling for?
00:51:26I realised who she was after I saw a news segment of her and her fiancé.
00:51:32I'm here to apologise for the unkind way I treated you.
00:51:36I embarrassed you and...
00:51:38Can you please forgive me?
00:51:55Jack is a master manipulator.
00:51:58But I can't believe he got access to the security footage.
00:52:01I could sue for violation of privacy.
00:52:04I doubt the owners thought it through.
00:52:06I don't think so either, but Jack mentioned something about throwing someone off the engine.
00:52:11You must be so hurt.
00:52:13I'm sorry you were put in that position.
00:52:15Of course I forgive you.
00:52:17Why are you so kind to me?
00:52:20You should make me cry while I deserve it.
00:52:23There's no point in that.
00:52:25We've wasted weeks already.
00:52:27I've missed you so much.
00:52:30I've missed you too.
00:52:38Your lips are as soft as ever.
00:52:41I'm so sorry.
00:52:44Did anything happen between you and Jack?
00:52:47No, did you see something?
00:52:49No, it's just...
00:52:50You were friendlier to him.
00:52:52That day at the office.
00:52:54No, nothing happened.
00:52:56Except when he tried to force himself upon me.
00:52:59It was late.
00:53:01He did what?
00:53:03He didn't rape me.
00:53:05That fucking asshole!
00:53:07That son of a bitch, I'm gonna fucking kill him!
00:53:09It's fine.
00:53:11Don't make excuses for him.
00:53:13What he did was fucked up.
00:53:21What the fuck's going on here?
00:53:24What the fuck does it look like, brother?
00:53:26My darling and I are just enjoying dinner together in our family home.
00:53:30Isn't that right, sweetheart?
00:53:32Yes, it is.
00:53:34The pasture is the best I've ever tasted in my life.
00:53:36Now, isn't that nice?
00:53:38Jack, surely you'd like to join us?
00:53:40Join you?
00:53:42No, thank you.
00:53:44Okay.
00:53:46I'll be right back.
00:53:47No, thank you.
00:53:49Okay.
00:53:51You're awesome.
00:53:53It's good to see you both have reached each other again.
00:53:56Yeah, sweet.
00:53:58You must be thrilled.
00:54:00Yes, we are in fact very thrilled.
00:54:02It only took us a short while to find each other, and that's how you know it's real.
00:54:07Right.
00:54:09Then you've been missing work because of your...
00:54:11love.
00:54:13No.
00:54:18I've been missing work because my boss assaulted me.
00:54:21I had to resign.
00:54:23Or maybe HR hasn't mentioned that to you yet.
00:54:26Assault?
00:54:28You both know you seduce me.
00:54:30What assault?
00:54:32And HR?
00:54:34John, she's fucking lying.
00:54:36Can you repeat that, please?
00:54:38Slower this time.
00:54:40I don't think I quite heard you the first time.
00:54:42She's a...
00:54:43I believe this only here because her mummy sold her off.
00:54:47You don't know, mummy told you this.
00:54:50What the hell are you talking about?
00:54:52What do you mean she sold me off?
00:54:54You don't know.
00:54:56Mama Harris put an extra clause into the claim because she wanted more money.
00:55:01What, you think she's just going to kick her daughter up a social ladder?
00:55:05No, no, no.
00:55:07She was only there to prove your father gave something in return.
00:55:10You're lying!
00:55:14Am I lying?
00:55:16Am I lying?
00:55:18Maybe you should ask her yourself.
00:55:20It's not the first time she's had Blackthorn money stuffed in her pocket.
00:55:25Did she surprise you with her visit?
00:55:29Yes, she did.
00:55:31That was you who pushed her on me.
00:55:34I hope she's healed.
00:55:36When did you become such a terrible person, Jack?
00:55:40You're destroying my life.
00:55:41You're not a terrible person, Jack.
00:55:43You're destroying the relationship between a mother and a daughter just to get what you want.
00:55:47She's already made her choice.
00:55:49Eva has chosen me just as I have chosen her.
00:55:53It's over, Jack.
00:55:55No, no.
00:55:57It's not over.
00:56:06Please say something.
00:56:07I don't know what to say other than I'm sorry we've put you through so much.
00:56:12You didn't ask for any of this.
00:56:14And I'm sorry that your mother hasn't been honest with you.
00:56:17That revelation about her must have hurt so much.
00:56:21I wonder why she just pushed Jack's assault to me on the side.
00:56:27She just...
00:56:29She didn't seem to care about the trauma I went through.
00:56:32She just told me,
00:56:34look on the bright side.
00:56:38It's crazy that she pushed Jack onto me after what he did.
00:56:44I've been so stupid.
00:56:48Don't say that.
00:56:50You're kind and smart and good
00:56:54and vulnerable to people trying to take advantage of you.
00:56:57You're a good person.
00:56:58You're kind and smart and good
00:57:01and vulnerable to people trying to take advantage of you.
00:57:09What are you doing?
00:57:13Will you marry me?
00:57:19Will you marry me?
00:57:21Yes, yes, Jack, yes.
00:57:29Now we can finally put an end to all of this bullshit with my brother.
00:57:33I can't wait to see the look on his face when we tell him we're going to engage.
00:57:37He's going to be furious.
00:57:39Okay, but we have to tell the lawyer about what's happened.
00:57:45Yes.
00:57:47But first, we need to celebrate.
00:57:50You're going to be my lovely wife, Eva.
00:57:53Cheers to us.
00:57:55Cheers.
00:57:59Cheers.
00:58:04What the heavenly fuck?
00:58:09Let's talk about this.
00:58:12Where can I see you? It's urgent.
00:58:15When are you available?
00:58:17Yes, it's about the will.
00:58:19I'm going to help out as soon as I can.
00:58:21No, John, there's nothing about this.
00:58:23It's Nanny's concern.
00:58:29You got yourself into this,
00:58:31and the only way out for you is to hold up your end of the bargain.
00:58:34My end of the bargain?
00:58:36You tampered with the contract, and now everything is messed up.
00:58:39My daughter won't even speak to me.
00:58:41You can't just...
00:58:45What was that? She just flew out of here.
00:58:49That's confidential.
00:58:51Yeah, yeah, of course it is.
00:58:53I mean, whoever that was, she was pissed.
00:58:55You said you had something to tell me.
00:58:56Something about the will?
00:58:58I have news.
00:59:00What do you say?
00:59:02This is going to blow everything up in the air.
00:59:04Yeah, see, that's some lesson.
00:59:06I want to contest my father's will.
00:59:08What?
00:59:10Well, he signed it, and he was forced by Hannah Harris.
00:59:12It's probably under duress.
00:59:14What?
00:59:16Well, until this gets cleared up, it will stand.
00:59:18If I have to sue John over it, so be it.
00:59:22Oh, Jack.
00:59:24Not so fucking funny.
00:59:26The contract your father signed with Hannah Harris was not signed under duress.
00:59:30How can you be so sure of my private business?
00:59:32Sure, because I was there when it was signed.
00:59:34It was your father's idea to begin with.
00:59:36That's... it's not possible. It can't be.
00:59:40But why would my father sign a contract?
00:59:42He knew Hannah Harris wanted money for her incentive.
00:59:45But he also made sure she had a reason to stay involved even after the money was paid to her.
00:59:52What reason?
00:59:53Your father was a smart man.
00:59:55Though not unkind.
00:59:57He didn't get so wealthy by being a pushover.
01:00:00He included a clause in the contract that stipulated that if Angeline did not marry one of his sons,
01:00:05Anna would have to repay the money.
01:00:07Let me guess, Anna didn't know about that before she signed?
01:00:10She did not.
01:00:12Foolishly, she did not read the fine print.
01:00:14Your father left an apology note and me to explain exactly why he did what he did.
01:00:20Fuck.
01:00:21Jack Blackthorn.
01:00:23This is neither the time nor the place for that kind of language.
01:00:26Man, I was so close to getting this right.
01:00:29Why is my father always one step ahead?
01:00:32Eat me from the fucking grave.
01:00:34I understand you're upset.
01:00:36But if you had taken this to court, you would have been humiliated when you got thrown out.
01:00:39You did yourself a favor by coming to me first, son.
01:00:42I'm not your fucking son.
01:00:44You know what, this is all freaked from the inside.
01:00:46You just want me, your jolly boy, to win, huh?
01:00:48Guess what, I'm not going to give over and lay you under my fucking grave.
01:00:51Fuck.
01:01:17What are you doing here?
01:01:19Where's the daughter?
01:01:21I told you she's not here.
01:01:23Are you deaf?
01:01:25Aaron's perfectly fine, thank you very much.
01:01:27So this is where your daughter lives in this shit hole.
01:01:30I guess they don't show her fucking face for free money.
01:01:32Like a mother, like a daughter.
01:01:34Oh, excuse me.
01:01:36You can't come into my daughter's place and then throw insults around.
01:01:39What are you doing here anyway?
01:01:41You crazy, you need to get out or I'll call the cops.
01:01:43Funny for you, I don't know you're supposed to be here.
01:01:45I'm her mother, I have a key.
01:01:47It was you at the lawyer's office earlier, wasn't it?
01:01:49You need to get out.
01:01:53If you'd fucked things up with your daughter, I would have picked up the hand.
01:01:56Oh, excuse me, if you weren't such a sleazy, creepy son of a bitch,
01:01:59you may have stood a chance with her.
01:02:01Dirty Goldie, like your dirty daughter, eh?
01:02:03Next thing you know, there's a 425 on the train at the buzzard.
01:02:12Heather, what the fuck, say something.
01:02:15What are you saying?
01:02:17What are you saying?
01:02:19Help.
01:02:21No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:02:23Heather, don't, don't handle me.
01:02:31There's a woman, she's unconscious, she suddenly fell.
01:02:38I'm warning you about medication, she's in her head.
01:02:40She's in her head.
01:02:45What the fuck is going on?
01:02:50What the fuck are you doing?
01:02:52Fuck!
01:03:10Fuck!
01:03:37I'm just going to miss this place.
01:03:38I'm going to have a small but almost independent and happy year.
01:03:43Don't get too comfy.
01:03:45We're only here to pick up your things.
01:03:47You're going to love living in the mansion.
01:03:51That's weird.
01:03:54What's weird?
01:03:56Something feels off.
01:03:58I don't know, the apartment seems cleaner than I remember.
01:04:01Maybe your mother came around.
01:04:03You mentioned she had a key.
01:04:05Yeah, just that.
01:04:06I don't like this place.
01:04:08Cleaning's the last thing she'd do here.
01:04:10Maybe you just left it clean and then you went out.
01:04:15I'd like to bring some underwear.
01:04:17They're not sophisticated, but I like them.
01:04:22What about your toiletries?
01:04:24Good idea, I just need to pack my things from the bathroom.
01:04:25Okay.
01:04:35Ava, I need to go.
01:04:39What?
01:04:41I've been ignoring Jack's calls, but he just sent me a message saying there's been an emergency.
01:04:46I need to go meet him.
01:04:48Ava's okay, he's a sweet brother.
01:04:50I'm sure he's fine.
01:04:52It's probably just a flat tire or something.
01:04:53I'll be back ASAP.
01:04:55Don't stay too long, okay?
01:05:20What's wrong with you?
01:05:24Don't scream.
01:05:26Don't scream.
01:05:33Don't scream.
01:05:36You.
01:05:38You sent one a message.
01:05:40Yes, I did.
01:05:42What are you doing?
01:05:44Where did you come from?
01:05:46Is this one of your games you're playing now?
01:05:48Give me that! That's mine!
01:05:50I'll take that, thank you.
01:05:53That's my question.
01:05:55What are you doing inside my apartment?
01:05:57I saw him up there and I just walked in.
01:05:59That's impossible.
01:06:01I would have heard you.
01:06:03Why did you text John about an emergency when he was already coming himself?
01:06:05I'm only trying to play you like that.
01:06:07I broke into your house while I had to my brother.
01:06:10I'm not trying to play anything.
01:06:12Something isn't adding up.
01:06:14Come on, Ava.
01:06:16You can trust me.
01:06:18We're going to be family after all.
01:06:20How did you know about the engagement?
01:06:21We jumped on it.
01:06:23No, we didn't.
01:06:26Let go of me!
01:06:28Listen!
01:06:30No!
01:06:32Shut up!
01:06:36Don't say anything. Keep your mouth shut.
01:06:45Hello, brother.
01:06:47No, I don't know where she is.
01:06:49That mistake was a mistake.
01:06:51Well, I'm out of town right now.
01:06:58Sorry, I had something in my throat.
01:07:00Well, wherever she is, I'm sure she'll be home soon.
01:07:08What do you want? Why are you doing this?
01:07:11I haven't figured that one out yet.
01:07:13But I do know that my brother would do anything for you.
01:07:15I don't want to see him suffer.
01:07:18Stop with fucking stupid questions!
01:07:22Fuck!
01:07:32You be a good little girl and don't fucking move.
01:07:34I'll pull a bullet in your head!
01:07:37Don't do it.
01:07:39I'll be fucking serious.
01:07:41Whatever it is you want.
01:07:43I'll do it. Just watch.
01:07:45Whatever it is you want, I'll do it.
01:07:48Don't do anything stupid, otherwise I'll send you to meet your mother.
01:07:51Interesting.
01:07:53What about my mother?
01:07:55Oops, did I say something?
01:07:57Hey, do you know how to drive a car?
01:08:00Get in the drive seat now.
01:08:08Yes, I understand. But this is an emergency.
01:08:10Mr. Blackthorn would appreciate it if the matter was dealt with urgently.
01:08:16I understand.
01:08:21Is there any news yet?
01:08:23I'm afraid not.
01:08:25The commissioner insists that we have to wait at least 48 hours before we can declare him missing.
01:08:28Damn it.
01:08:30It's the same thing they told me.
01:08:32Can't they even pretend to care?
01:08:34Have you tried calling Jack again?
01:08:36He isn't answering.
01:08:38I don't know what's wrong with him.
01:08:40First he sends me those cryptic text messages and now he's not answering my calls.
01:08:44Maybe he'll answer yours.
01:08:46I doubt it, but I'll try just in case.
01:08:51Hello?
01:08:56This might be bad timing, but Jack came to see me the other day.
01:09:00He wanted to contest your father's will.
01:09:03He was ready to sue you.
01:09:05What?
01:09:07What do you mean he was ready to sue me?
01:09:09He believed Anna tricked your father into giving him money.
01:09:12And he wanted proof that that may have impacted the will.
01:09:15That's preposterous.
01:09:17Why wasn't I told about this earlier?
01:09:18I didn't think it was important because I clarified to Jack that he was misguided.
01:09:21I should have been informed immediately.
01:09:23You're meant to be impartial, remember?
01:09:33Hello, young boy.
01:09:35Frankie.
01:09:37What a great evening this is tonight, isn't it?
01:09:39Jack.
01:09:41You're so surprised, are you? Bet you didn't see this one coming out, did ya?
01:09:43Huh?
01:09:45Keep him where I can see him now.
01:09:46You don't have to do this, Jack.
01:09:48No, I've done something really stupid.
01:09:51I can't take it back now.
01:09:53What did you do?
01:09:55We can work this out, just the two of us.
01:09:57He did something to my mother.
01:09:59Isn't that right, Jack?
01:10:01Shut up, you're not talking about.
01:10:05I found Anna's earring in my apartment and then he threatened to shoot me.
01:10:09No, no, no.
01:10:11You don't have to do that.
01:10:13How do you mean to do that?
01:10:14I'll kill her.
01:10:16No!
01:10:20It's okay.
01:10:22Like you said, it was just an accident.
01:10:24We can work this out together.
01:10:26I'm sorry, man.
01:10:28I didn't mean for it to come this way.
01:10:30I won't do it anymore.
01:10:32It's okay, brother.
01:10:34We can work this out, just the two of us.
01:10:36Before all this craziness happens.
01:10:39No, it's not okay!
01:10:41You're mad at my mother!
01:10:42No!
