00:00No, no, no!
00:02No, no, no!
00:06Alright, cut!
00:07That's good. Great.
00:08Okay, moving on.
00:11Let's go ahead and move on to the next scene.
00:14Hey, we're already on our next shot. Where are you?
00:18I'm sorry, Julia, but...
00:21I'm not coming.
00:22What?
00:24Hey, Emma, what's wrong?
00:26I need you.
00:27Well, I'm right here. Just tell me where you are.
00:30Julia, we're ready for a take.
00:31Oh, okay. Copy that. Just give me just a minute here.
00:37What's going on? Are you okay?
00:39You know, um...
00:41Never mind. You should get back to work. I'll be okay.
00:44Are you sure?
00:46Yeah.
00:48Don't worry about me.
00:50Emma?
00:52Hey, Emma!
00:53Emma?
01:00Alright, let's just keep going.
01:07Cut! That's a picture wrap!
01:17Hey, this is Julia.
01:18Ms. Stone, this is Officer Miller from RCMP.
01:21You were the last person Emma Williams contacted.
01:24Can you confirm your relationship with her?
01:27I'm her best friend. What happened?
01:30I'm sorry to inform you, Ms. Williams was found dead tonight.
01:34It appears she took her own life.
01:36What?
01:52This can't be right.
01:54I'm sorry, ma'am. The investigation concluded it was a suicide.
01:59I wish there was more we could do.
02:01I grew up with her. I know her.
02:03It would never happen. She would never do that. She's...
02:07These are Emma's personal belongings with a letter addressed specifically to you.
02:21Dear Julia, I'm sorry I couldn't be there tonight.
02:25Things changed between Benjamin and me.
02:28At first, he was kind, supportive, and charming.
02:36Then the lies started.
02:44Small things. Odd decisions.
02:52Hi.
03:02He was cheating on me.
03:05I should have seen the signs sooner.
03:07When he found out I knew, he didn't apologize.
03:11He just turned it around and threatened to tear everything I'd worked for apart.
03:17He never loved me.
03:19Good morning.
03:21All he wanted was my wealth, my power.
03:25And I... I was just blind enough to give it to him.
03:30Don't blame yourself for my choice.
03:33Hearing your voice in my last moments made me feel loved.
03:37But now, I'll be with my parents again.
03:40Where I've always longed to be.
03:43Goodbye, Julia.
03:45Love, Emma.
03:51No.
03:57You paid for this.
04:03You paid for this.
04:08Emma, where the hell are you?
04:11I'm done playing games. This is your last chance.
04:13You cross me again, and you'll regret it.
04:18You're gonna regret everything, Benjamin.
04:22Wow.
04:24So, I'm not gonna be finishing the shoot this month.
04:29I'm gonna go after Benjamin.
04:31Well, I can finish the shoot.
04:33But, what I really wanna say is, I just want you to be safe.
04:38I've got a plan.
04:40No one can stop me, not even you.
04:42I'm not here to stop you.
04:44Okay, I'm glad you told me.
04:46I just wanna help.
04:48Thanks, Evan.
04:49So, what's the plan, director?
04:52Can you arrange an audition?
04:54An audition?
05:04And why the hell is Emma in Canada, huh?
05:06I thought I made sure she couldn't get out of that stock transfer.
05:09Ben, I'm worried this could backfire.
05:11You don't get to question me, all right?
05:13Just find out who she's with now.
05:15I don't have much time.
05:16If I don't push right now, I will lose everything.
05:20Clean this mess up.
05:46Emma!
05:50Emma!
05:58What the hell are you wearing?
06:00Excuse me?
06:01Cut the act, okay?
06:02You've already lost everyone's trust.
06:04And what, you think you can just run away now?
06:06Sir, I think you have me confused with someone else.
06:08Enough, Emma.
06:09This isn't the time for games.
06:11All I need you to do, just transfer the shares.
06:14Now.
06:16I am not Emma.
06:20I'm Cecilia Benson.
06:31Don't you dare leave me, you deceitful bastard!
06:34I'll never love again!
06:42So, uh, you are a billionaire CEO, okay?
06:47So, maybe you don't have to be so hysterical.
06:50Get him out of here!
06:56She just...
06:58Just a little bit.
07:02So, I'm thinking this next take to be more personal.
07:07Um, so, maybe less mom-like.
07:12Ugh!
07:19Um, she has a strong background.
07:24In Shakespeare.
07:37Is this all we have?
07:38Well, you wanted to stay low profile.
07:40This is no one overly exposed that Benjamin would recognize.
07:44No, no.
07:51Well, she just looks just like Emma.
07:54Yeah.
07:55She's only done background work.
07:57Her daughter's sick.
07:58She's in the hospital, like, waiting on surgery.
08:00So, she hasn't been able to take any larger roles.
08:02So, no substantial acting experience?
08:06No.
08:07But her reel is super good.
08:10You've got to see her acting.
08:12Well, let's see what this single mother has to offer.
08:22Ben, dinner's ready.
08:24It might be a little bit cold, but I could heat it up again if you like.
08:27I'm full.
08:38Cut!
08:44I'm sorry. I just, uh...
08:46I keep thinking about how my husband abandoned me and my sick daughter.
08:50It's so...
08:52It's too real.
08:53Let me ask you something.
08:56If Emma were pushed to that breaking point and took her own life, what would you do?
09:03I wouldn't want to make Ben pay. I would...
09:06Wait.
09:08So, this is true?
09:13So, this is true?
09:15Yes.
09:16And I need your help.
09:20I'd love to.
09:22I'd like to take that bastard down myself.
09:25What's your plan?
09:26Cecilia, I'm not just casting you in this role.
09:29I need you to get close to Benjamin.
09:33Don't worry about your daughter. I can take care of her.
09:36I don't look anything like Emma.
09:39This is Hollywood, remember?
09:42Come here.
09:48Am I ready?
09:53Oh my God.
09:55I look just like her.
09:56We are going to make sure he feels every bit of pain he caused Emma.
10:01Every lie, every betrayal.
10:04We're going to make him pay.
10:06This is going to be your new identity.
10:09I'll be with you every step of the way.
10:18Cecilia's here.
10:19But why would she help us with the papers?
10:21Hey.
10:22Come on, listen. She's just a friend.
10:24Hey.
10:25Come on, listen. She's just a fashion designer.
10:27Listen, sure, she can drape a gown.
10:29But she's not exactly the type to ruffle feathers, alright?
10:31Hey.
10:32Why don't you go ahead and you go take her to Emma's office, okay?
10:54Thank you so much for coming, Cecilia.
10:58I didn't realize you had such a big company.
11:01Well, technically this is Emma's company, my partner.
11:06You know, I'm sorry about the other day.
11:08But you look just like her.
11:13So she's missing.
11:15Sounds like you want me to impersonate her.
11:18Well, the shareholders are starting to make their moves.
11:21So I hope that you could sign the stock transfer agreement to me on her behalf.
11:28What's in it for me?
11:29Well, you'll be well compensated.
11:31Enough to live comfortably wherever you want.
11:36I'll bring in a trusted lawyer so you won't face any legal issues.
11:41What if I want to stay?
11:51This is the master bedroom.
11:53Bathroom.
11:54Walk-in closet.
12:04I think he brought me to Emma's house.
12:11Keep calm.
12:13Keep him hooked.
12:21Come on.
12:39I normally go for something a bit more daring, but...
12:44I could get used to this room.
12:47You look stunning.
12:49But, you see, what good is perfection, Benjamin, if I'm behind bars and unable to enjoy it?
12:58Because, you see, you need me a lot more than I need you.
13:04Make me believe it's worth the risk.
13:08Just saying, by the time this is all over, I'm going to give you more than you've ever imagined.
13:19I thought you were done with Emma.
13:21But look at you, playing house with her look-alike.
13:24Hey, come on.
13:27She's just a stand-in.
13:30You know I only love you.
13:36You always say that.
13:38Why haven't you married me yet?
13:40Just a little longer.
13:41Once I'm at the top, we'll have everything we've ever dreamed of.
13:45We'll have everything we've ever dreamed of.
13:48What if Emma comes back?
13:50What if she claims the stock transfer's invalid?
13:53I'll handle it.
13:54I'll have a witness there to legitimize everything.
13:58The legal team you think they'll listen to?
14:01No.
14:02No, we need someone there without ties.
14:05Someone who can make this ironclad.
14:09Look at this.
14:10I've handled complex corporate cases, mergers, acquisitions, international litigation.
14:21It's all about giving my clients an edge in a competitive world.
14:25Cut!
14:26I need to see the playback on that.
14:29Not bad for a real lawyer, right?
14:32But are you sure Benjamin's going to fall for this?
14:35He's only going to trust it if he thinks that he discovered it himself.
14:38Someone like me, fresh from overseas.
14:42He just might fall for it.
14:43But keep an eye on Daisy.
14:47There's something going on between her and Benjamin.
14:50But Daisy's sharp.
14:52She might be of more help to us than you think.
15:02Wait.
15:03What if her lawyer realizes I'm not Emma?
15:05Listen, she just got back to the States.
15:07She's never even met Emma.
15:10Hey, you're Emma now, okay?
15:13Keep quiet and let me handle everything.
15:16It's all under control.
15:24Okay.
15:27Do you, Emma Williams, agree to transfer all rights and shares as outlined in this contract?
15:34I agree.
15:35Are you certain?
15:38This is a full transfer of everything you own.
15:40Okay, what exactly are you asking?
15:43It's just that I've worked with enough people in this business to know when something doesn't add up.
15:47Miss, are you Emma Williams?
15:50This is Emma Williams.
15:52Look, look at the photo.
15:53I'm not asking you.
15:55I, uh, yeah.
15:58Okay, well, I'm not here to tolerate deception.
16:01My job is to protect my clients.
16:02I can't do that if they don't trust me.
16:04If you think you can play games with me, think again.
16:07I'm not here to bake lies.
16:16I'm sorry.
16:17Let me explain.
16:20Wait!
16:22Thank God, he totally bought it.
16:24I was worried he would know I messed up on purpose.
16:26Well, now he'll believe you even more.
16:29What's your next move?
16:30Just wait. He's gonna reach out again.
16:35How did you know?
16:37Benjamin wants to keep this quiet, especially about you posing as Emma.
16:41It's safer with me involved now.
16:43Here you go.
16:45Benjamin?
16:55I owe you an apology.
16:57I should have been straight with you.
16:59Let's make this right.
17:01And what exactly are you offering?
17:03I've seen the headlines.
17:05You're looking to build your reputation here?
17:08I can help.
17:10Go on.
17:11Help me take control of the company.
17:13And in return, I will set you up to succeed here.
17:17All I need is your trust.
17:19You lied to me, and now you want my trust.
17:21Hey, I get it.
17:22I've been struggling to find somebody that I can rely on.
17:26But, you know, the real Emma, she's missing.
17:30Missing?
17:31Do you know how that sounds to a lawyer?
17:34No, she's irresponsible, right?
17:37The company needs a leader.
17:39Somebody that's not vacationing in Canada, ghosting everyone.
17:44And when she returns, the agreements will be worthless, right?
17:48That's why I need you there as a witness.
17:50Your name's gonna help solidify the deal.
17:53Let's just hope she doesn't come back to spoil the fun.
17:56Fine. I'll be the witness.
17:58But if things go wrong, it's on you.
18:00It won't.
18:01With you on my side, we're untouchable.
18:05And you're gonna get what you deserve.
18:15Today I am pleased to announce that the Emma Williams shares have officially been transferred.
18:23I'm now home majority stake.
18:25Emma, did you really sign this?
18:27This doesn't sound like the Emma we knew.
18:30This was my choice.
18:31Benjamin is the right leader for this company.
18:35And your scarf?
18:37It's gone.
18:44I've been so focused on the company that I neglected myself.
18:48I'm taking a step back.
18:50For family.
18:53Hey, Katie.
18:55Listen, you played your part.
18:57Perfectly.
18:59I think we should keep this going.
19:01How long do you think we can keep this little charade up?
19:05Long enough for people to believe it.
19:07Listen.
19:09Starting tonight, I want you to be my date for dinner.
19:15Dinner?
19:17Is this a secret?
19:20Dinner?
19:22Is this about the company or is this personal?
19:25Maybe a little bit of both.
19:27Business.
19:29Pleasure.
19:31You fit into both worlds, don't you?
19:35Then let's make them believe every moment.
19:38Send me the guest list.
19:40I'll be ready.
19:50I love you.
20:04You look just like her.
20:08Okay.
20:19I love you both.
20:24Hey, listen.
20:26You'll have to know everyone's name at that party tonight.
20:30There's no room for errors.
20:32No room for slip-ups.
20:34Then let me stay here.
20:36So I can become accustomed to feeling like the lady of this house.
20:49I'm sorry.
21:06He was never going to marry me.
21:08I gave everything to this relationship and for what?
21:12For him to just mess around with someone else?
21:16You deserve more than just being a placeholder for him.
21:19He thinks he can just do whatever he wants.
21:22No! No, I'm not gonna just let him just do that to me.
21:28Do you wonder why Emma hasn't returned?
21:34She died because of him.
21:43She died because of him.
21:46I had nothing to do with that.
21:48Benjamin kept me far away from Emma.
21:50Emma committed suicide.
21:54She left a note.
22:00So Benjamin lied about her this entire time.
22:04I remember this one time.
22:07When Benjamin said that she took it too far and he was gonna leak her nudes.
22:14He's so terrifying.
22:16I'm not gonna be on his side anymore.
22:18Join me.
22:19Together we can take him down.
22:22Okay.
22:31Did you really join us?
22:35What's our next move?
22:37Well, Benjamin doesn't completely trust you just yet.
22:40So your job is to earn his trust.
22:42Find more evidence on this phone.
22:46I'm gonna be right back.
22:56I have something to show you.
22:58Whoa.
23:00Emma, I still can't believe that with all of your money you still fell for somebody as poor as Benjamin.
23:06But Benjamin really loves me.
23:09He's so good to me.
23:11You know, sometimes he can be a little old-fashioned.
23:22This is the most precious thing in this closet.
23:26It's kind of cute.
23:30I've heard it so many times.
23:32He's so romantic.
23:42I recognize.
23:43Susan.
23:44Susan. Okay, that's very helpful.
23:48What did you find?
23:50A slipping mask.
23:58We have...
24:02We've got it.
24:12I remembered that.
24:13Everyone was saying it was gonna be too risky, but it turned out to be genius.
24:16Exactly.
24:17Benjamin has this way of making bold moves without breaking a sweat.
24:21You are so lucky, Emma.
24:22You have a powerhouse for a partner.
24:24Trust me.
24:25I know.
24:26Benjamin, he's always ten steps ahead from everyone.
24:30He's brilliant, but too humble for his own good.
24:33Okay.
24:41Emma, you've really cut the tight leash on him.
24:43A drop of alcohol for Benjamin.
24:45Why would I stop Benjamin from drinking?
24:49Ben, here's to you.
24:53For running the company like a pro.
24:55No way.
24:56Emma, I cannot believe you just said that.
24:59Emma's taking a step back.
25:01She no longer controls me anymore.
25:22Hey Emma, what are you celebrating?
25:26Shit, he's not on the list.
25:28Who is he?
25:29Emma, we never did finish that conversation about expanding overseas.
25:32What's your thought about it after all this time?
25:36Well, I, uh, things change.
25:39I've taken a step back recently.
25:41Benjamin handles most of that now.
25:44But...
25:47Gary, when did you get back from London?
25:51Daisy, what's it been, like a couple years?
25:54Feels like forever.
25:55Why didn't you tell me you were coming back?
25:57I don't like surprises.
25:58Emma, you got someone invaluable.
26:00Daisy was my assistant back in the UK.
26:03Absolutely.
26:04She's been a huge help.
26:13Why are we late?
26:15Hey, you know,
26:17Daisy was supposed to have everything under control.
26:20But she's late.
26:22This is a job.
26:25Aren't you going to drive me home?
26:29No!
26:34Emma.
26:35Emma.
26:36Hey.
26:37Hey.
26:46Sorry.
26:47Look, if it's too much, we can stop.
26:50No, we keep going.
26:59Emma.
27:04Nice.
27:05That move is crucial.
27:07Finally got it.
27:08That's how Emma got her scar,
27:10was rescuing Ben that way.
27:12I wonder what would have happened
27:14if I had persuaded her to break up.
27:17This wouldn't have ended up happening.
27:20You can't blame yourself.
27:29Ben!
27:30You're too drunk to drive.
27:35Ben.
27:36Ben!
27:37You are too drunk to drive.
27:39I'm not drunk, Emma.
27:41We'll call a cab, alright?
27:42Ben, you're not driving like this.
27:44I'm fine.
27:45Ben!
27:46Listen.
27:48Ben!
27:54We're going now.
27:59Ben.
28:07Hey.
28:10Are you feeling better?
28:11Because I was so worried about you.
28:16I've been thinking.
28:17I really care about you.
28:20And I want us to be together.
28:22Officially.
28:23I'd like that.
28:26My phone got smashed in the accident.
28:28Could I borrow yours?
28:30Yeah.
28:31Yeah.
28:32Of course.
28:37Oh.
28:38Could I have some fruit too?
28:40I'm craving something fresh.
28:42Of course, what kind of fruit?
28:43Whatever they have.
28:45Okay, yeah.
28:46Oh, hey, come here.
28:53What?
29:06You won't believe what I found.
29:08Benjamin has been transferring company assets to his personal account for years.
29:14Twenty million dollars?
29:16Do you think we can use this against him?
29:18We might need more than just financial records, but this is a good start.
29:21Wait, what's this?
29:22Oh.
29:25He was threatening to send these to the company's email.
29:28To humiliate her.
29:30He's a monster.
29:32He's going to pay for every single thing that he did.
29:35Every single damn thing.
29:47Just talked to the rehab center.
29:48Apparently, Benjamin started drinking from stress at work.
29:52Emma forced him into rehab.
29:55Cookies?
29:56Anyone?
30:00Oh, I didn't realize you had company.
30:03Are you guys together?
30:05Finally, someone says it.
30:07No.
30:08No, no, no, that's not it at all.
30:10Okay, we're not.
30:12I'm just her producer.
30:13Okay, and a cookie enthusiast.
30:16Producer who loves cookies.
30:18That's a rare breed.
30:20Anyway, Benjamin's drinking got so bad.
30:23Guess what? He blamed that on Emma.
30:25Of course he did.
30:26Because he's always the victim, right?
30:28And I'm the queen of England.
30:30Oh, cookie, your majesty.
30:33Aren't you glad you didn't stick around long enough to deal with that workload disaster?
30:37Trust me, I could not be more happy to leave him behind.
30:40Ladies, we are going to make Benjamin pay for what he did.
30:45We're going to show him a world without Emma.
30:48Evan.
30:49What, cookies?
30:50I want you to be a billionaire.
30:56A what?
31:07You know, Benjamin, I do prefer closing deals in a much more relaxed setting.
31:12Don't you?
31:13Absolutely.
31:14You know, a business should feel good, not stiff.
31:18Well, I'll toast to that.
31:21Nothing quite like $20 million to start our partnership, yeah?
31:27$20 million, huh?
31:32You really know how to get my attention.
31:35It's a big move, but a bold one.
31:38But then again, boldness suits you, doesn't it?
31:44Everything's ready. Just need your signature. We're good to go.
31:48Yeah.
31:51This looks good.
31:54But you know, I should wait for Julia. You know, she's always very, very thorough.
32:01Hey, Julia. You're here already.
32:05Could you take a look at this, please?
32:07Sure.
32:11This looks solid to me.
32:18Do it, baby.
32:38Hey.
32:55What are you cooking?
32:57Just my secret recipe.
33:03Something that will cure your hangover.
33:08Okay.
33:19This was always my mom's secret to starting the day right.
33:28This tastes exactly like...
33:31What? You like it?
33:33It's just a family recipe. I perfected it.
33:36I think I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
33:46Who could that be?
33:53I need to talk to Benjamin.
34:01I heard that Emma killed herself in Canada.
34:05And they say that you were involved.
34:07Come on.
34:08What's going on?
34:09That's not true.
34:12Just save it.
34:14Did you think that you could hide it forever?
34:16Did you think that nobody would notice when you just replaced Emma with Cecilia?
34:20Like an old worn coat?
34:22Listen, I just...
34:25I just closed a huge deal.
34:27A 20 million dollar deal. Everything is on the line.
34:31Your deal doesn't mean...
34:34What?
34:35Your deal doesn't mean anything if you're in prison.
34:37Okay. Alright.
34:40Listen, how much do we need to make this go away?
34:42This isn't just about money, Benjamin. This is bigger than that.
34:46How is she dead?
34:48I didn't...
34:50I didn't hurt her.
34:51This isn't happening.
35:03Benjamin?
35:22I didn't do anything wrong.
35:26What do you mean?
35:30Didn't you love her?
35:34Maybe.
35:35She was always so...
35:37You know, she was like...
35:39Needy.
35:41Oh?
35:43How so?
35:44She was the worst.
35:45She always wanted me to...
35:47She was always so...
35:49Naggy.
35:50You know, she wanted me to change.
35:53She wanted me to...
35:55She wanted me to quit drinking, so...
35:58With you...
35:59Come here. Come on.
36:00Come here.
36:02With you, it's different, you know? I...
36:05I'm finally free.
36:09Maybe we just need to remind you how much Emma meant to you.
36:13Emma.
36:30Benjamin's still tight-lipped about Emma.
36:34Get him rattled enough to slip up.
36:37Okay, let me handle it.
36:39You really think you can pull that off?
36:42When it comes to you, I can do anything.
36:50I just mean...
36:51We'll figure it out together.
36:55Yeah.
36:57Together.
37:09Rough night?
37:10What's going on?
37:16Stay out of it, all right?
37:18I don't need a secretary lecturing me about deadlines.
37:21Just fix it.
37:24Fix it?
37:26You're the one who signed off on these ridiculous deadlines.
37:31You don't get to question me, Daisy.
37:34I don't.
37:35You don't get to question me, Daisy.
37:38Just make them work overtime.
37:40Push through.
37:42Fine.
37:44Just don't regret that.
37:49Fine.
37:50Daisy, get me another bottle of whiskey.
38:06Fuck.
38:14Who took this?
38:16Daisy!
38:17Hey, Daisy!
38:26Daisy, I need you to get Julie in my office.
38:29Right now.
38:30Okay.
38:34Hey, Julie.
38:36Come here.
38:37Look at this.
38:41I need you to find out who's doing this and put him in jail.
38:44All right?
38:45Whoever's doing this.
38:46They're targeting me personally.
38:48They're trying to ruin me.
38:50Well, okay.
38:51I'm going to need to launch a thorough investigation.
38:54And I'm going to need the company's internal data.
38:58Okay.
38:59Julia, do whatever you need to do to find this person.
39:02Just find them.
39:10Julia, we found the record of that $20 million.
39:13Great job.
39:14We finally have something to take him down.
39:17I found something too.
39:20Why would he do something like this?
39:22He wanted to destroy her credibility and dismantle her authority in the company.
39:27What a scumbag.
39:29We cannot let him get away with this.
39:32He thinks he can do justice.
39:35We won't hold back.
39:49Hey.
39:50Why are these designs still not approved?
39:52Huh?
39:53We're running out of time.
39:56It's impossible.
39:57There's no way we can meet again.
39:59It's impossible?
40:01Do you even understand what's at stake here?
40:04We've been working around the clock.
40:06Some people are ready to walk out.
40:09That's fine.
40:11If you can't handle it,
40:12you will fire it and I'll find somebody who can do the job.
40:15That is illegal, Benjamin!
40:19You can't just fire people over this.
40:21Ben, with everyone that's quit, we're barely scraping by.
40:25We'll be in breach of contract.
40:28Yeah, Ben.
40:29You're not really going to fire them, are you?
40:34You all think you can challenge me?
40:41I built this company.
40:44Get out.
40:47Get out!
40:56Alex just barged into the building demanding to see you.
40:58What? Alex?
41:05Just as the internet says.
41:08I thought I could trust you.
41:11Look at you.
41:13Pathetic.
41:15I got it. Come on.
41:17I got it.
41:18I got it.
41:20I got it.
41:21I got it.
41:22I got it.
41:23I got it.
41:24I got everything under control.
41:26I just need some more time.
41:28Some more time.
41:30You can't have it.
41:31I'm under enough pressure already.
41:34Fix this,
41:36or we're done.
41:39Motherfucker.
41:42Oh, shit.
41:43Shit.
41:53What?
41:54Emma.
41:56I can't do this without you.
41:57Emma's gone, Benjamin.
42:00And you're the reason why.
42:01No.
42:02Emma, you're right here.
42:03Just come here. Come here.
42:04I'm not Emma!
42:06Benjamin.
42:07You have destroyed the one person who believed in you in this world.
42:11And now, you're nothing.
42:14Just like you always feared.
42:32Daisy, come on.
42:33I said not now.
42:35Close the damn curtains, please.
42:37Oh, my God. Not happening, Benjamin.
42:39You're out of time.
42:40Okay, your problems aren't going away just because you refuse to deal with them.
42:43Okay, well, you think I don't know that.
42:45All right?
42:46Come on.
42:47I've been carrying this damn company on my back.
42:50Carrying it?
42:51No, no.
42:52You're drowning in it.
42:53And you're taking this all down with you.
42:56Okay.
42:57And what the hell do you expect me to do?
43:00Outsource it.
43:02Pretty soon, we're not going to have a company to worry about.
43:04Or are you too drunk to see that?
43:07Fine.
43:10Sign it.
43:16Julia looks it over. It's fine.
43:18It's the only way to make our deadlines, okay?
43:26Just get it done.
43:27And I don't want to hear another word about this goddamn project.
43:32Okay.
43:38So, today is the big day, huh?
43:41Alex's shipment is finally going through.
43:48Once this is all over, we can finally put this whole mess behind us.
43:53There's no more delays, no more headaches.
44:00You can't just go. I didn't like this.
44:02Stay out of my way.
44:03I want my penalty fees. Now.
44:06What are you talking about?
44:07Everything is on schedule and we will...
44:09Actually, the outsourcing company failed.
44:12They didn't deliver the packages.
44:17What?
44:18You need to pay up, or we're going to court.
44:23Excuse me.
44:25What am I going to do?
44:27There is always a solution, okay?
44:30There is always a solution, okay?
44:33You'll figure things out. You will.
44:36And you're not alone in this.
44:42Hold on.
44:48Yeah. Hello?
44:50Money trade? No.
44:51No, I'm not interested in high interest loans.
44:56Okay.
44:57What kind of terms are you talking about?
45:00Okay.
45:06I'll think about it.
45:07Yeah, thank you.
45:14I'm going to find a way through this, okay? Somehow.
45:18Yes, you will.
45:19Shh.
45:27Troll bastard.
45:29Our partnership is done.
45:31Don't ever contact me again.
45:37I can't believe you went to a loan shark.
45:40How are you going to pay for that?
45:42You know, I just need to...
45:45I just need to rebuild my reputation, you know?
45:48I just got to get some more investment.
45:51You can do it, Ben. I trust you.
45:54Daisy.
45:55Hey.
45:57I got a question for you.
46:00Do you think I wanted this? Huh?
46:03You think I had options?
46:07Look, I'm going to fix this.
46:10Okay?
46:12I can marry the fake Emma, right?
46:14It's just temporary.
46:16It's just enough for me to convince the investors that, hey, look.
46:21That this is for us.
46:24And what if the real Emma comes back to haunt you?
46:26She'll never come back.
46:29Come here. Come here.
46:32Hey.
46:34We're still at work.
46:35Shut up, okay?
46:38Come on here. Sit down.
46:40Alright.
46:41Okay.
46:46Okay.
47:09Well, that was fast.
47:11I felt right.
47:12Hey.
47:15Cecilia.
47:18Will you marry me?
47:20And everything will be yours.
47:25Yes, I will.
47:33I want our wedding to be grand.
47:36A public spectacle.
47:38Something no one could ignore.
47:42Whatever you want.
47:49To us.
47:51And our future.
48:07Cecilia.
48:08Cecilia.
48:10Where is Cecilia?
48:19Benjamin.
48:20So, you were here to announce your wedding with Miss Emma.
48:24But we just learned that she passed away a month ago.
48:32So, who exactly are you marrying?
48:36I'm here to marry Emma. She's not dead.
48:40But Toronto police just confirmed her death.
48:43So, how did she sign the stock transfer agreement?
48:46And what about the loan sharks?
48:49Shit.
49:04We can't let this continue.
49:05His behavior is damaging this company's reputation.
49:09As well as the stock price.
49:11We need to remove him from control immediately.
49:19Okay.
49:22You'll help me, right?
49:24You said you were on my side and you're supposed to keep me out of jail.
49:37Tax evasion.
49:38Domestic violence.
49:40Fraud.
49:41What is this?
49:43It seems like you've done a lot of stuff behind my back.
49:46So, as usual, I'm going to need the full story if I can help you properly.
49:51So, let's start with what happened between you and Emma.
49:59Okay.
50:01Emma and I met.
50:08Here's your confession.
50:11Sign it.
50:16Wow.
50:40Hey.
50:42Daisy.
50:44Listen, I...
50:47I can't, you know, I can't.
50:49I can't do this without you.
50:52I need you.
50:53I need you.
50:54You need me.
50:56You manipulated me.
50:57You took credit for my work.
51:00And you made me hate myself, so...
51:02No.
51:03I'm so sorry.
51:05You are more...
51:06You are more capable than I've ever given you credit for.
51:11You are nothing without me.
51:14Nothing.
51:16Boys.
51:17Daisy.
51:18What am I supposed to do?
51:20What about the loan?
51:41Your Honor, my...
51:44My lawyer's on her way.
51:46You just gotta give her some more time, okay?
51:49Didn't you say you were representing yourself?
51:51No.
51:52My lawyer's the famous...
51:55Julia Thompson.
51:57She's my defense attorney.
52:00I don't know of any attorney named Julia Thompson.
52:03The prosecution has accused you of forging a stock transfer statement.
52:07Someone disguised as Emma signed the agreement.
52:11Had nothing to do with me.
52:16There she is.
52:23There she is.
52:26She was the witness to the stock transfer agreement.
52:29She can prove it.
52:31I was tricked by the fake Emma.
52:34Is this true?
52:37I'm a film director, not a lawyer.
52:40I couldn't have witnessed any signing.
52:43Oh.
52:44You're a liar.
52:46She set me up.
52:48I have here Emma's application for Benjamin's admission to the rehab room.
52:54He's mentally unstable.
52:56His testimony cannot be trusted.
53:01We have the defendant's own written testimony.
53:07Admitting to all of the crimes he now denies.
53:13Julia, you...
53:15You set me up!
53:17I'm gonna put you in jail! I'm gonna sue you!
53:20Your Honor, she's lying!
53:22Hey, get off me!
53:25I made sure the man who betrayed you paid for it.
53:30He didn't value your sacrifices.
53:33And he lost everything.
53:35Just like he deserved.
53:37Oh.
53:38Don't worry about your company.
53:40I'll protect it with everything I've got.
53:43Until your sister's ready to take over?
53:46I don't know.
53:48I don't know.
53:50I'll protect it with everything I've got.
53:53Until your sister's ready to take over?
53:56Okay.
53:58Where's your daughter?
53:59Surgery will go okay?
54:01I sold Benjamin's ring to cover the bills.
54:03The surgery was a success.
54:05She's doing well now.
54:21Hey, Julia.
54:23I've, uh...
54:25I've been meaning to ask you something.
54:28Listen, I've fallen for you.
54:31Will you marry me?
54:34I like you too.
54:37But...
54:39I'm not ready to get married just yet.
54:43Why not?
54:45I've got films I want to make.
54:48I've got films I want to make.
54:50I've got stories I want to tell.
54:52It's a big part of my life.
54:54I think you know that.
54:56Yeah.
54:58But we can still date.
55:00We can still be together.
55:02We can still love each other.
55:04That's all I want.
55:06Yeah.
55:17Cut.
55:29Great work, Mejo.
55:31Thanks.
55:33Great job.
55:35Loved it.
55:36Hey, Julia.
55:37Look at you now.
55:38My investor's here to supervise me.
55:40I'm just trying to make sure everything is perfect, okay?
55:43Let's not play that.
55:46Mommy, you were amazing.
55:47Thanks, sweetie.
55:48Did you like watching Mommy act?
55:50Looks like we got approval from the top.
55:57In this story, Emma isn't a victim.
56:01Instead, alongside her friends, she builds an empire,
56:07showing how women, united, can overcome any challenge
56:12and achieve success.
56:19Emma.
56:21Hey.
56:24It's me.
