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