00:00:09Can you believe they sent a deaf stylist?
00:00:19Who do they think are going to be wearing these Haute Couture designer pieces today?
00:00:30Who do they think are going to be wearing these Haute Couture designer pieces today?
00:00:40Mr. Congressman Marcus Vicks
00:00:46So handsome
00:00:51Congressman Marcus is California's youngest and most promising political star
00:00:55OMG, imagine getting some of that money
00:00:58His wife is actually a chester
00:01:03My friend Tommy said he adores his wife so much
00:01:06He never brings her to any public events to protect her from the media
00:01:11Has anyone ever actually seen his wife?
00:01:14No
00:01:36Can you do this for me?
00:01:58Okay
00:02:11I'm married, but I'm just a pawn in his quest for power
00:02:15In his grand narrative, I am nothing but the shadow to his shining star
00:02:20I am nothing but the shadow to his shining star
00:02:30I am nothing but the shadow to his shining star
00:02:45I can hear
00:03:01How can I hear?
00:03:05No security for a politician's wife
00:03:10Feeling you was almost too easy
00:03:13I'm kidnapped?
00:03:14Call your husband
00:03:16Now!
00:03:19That's right, you're deaf
00:03:22I'm sorry now
00:03:25Go on
00:03:33Marcus?
00:03:34Marcus, please pick up the phone
00:03:37Of course
00:03:38You've got rhythm, of course
00:03:39Absolutely
00:03:40Thank you
00:03:50Hello?
00:03:52Hello?
00:03:53I have no idea
00:03:55You're going to do exactly as I say, or I'm going to kill her
00:04:08Hello?
00:04:09I have your wife
00:04:10And if you don't do exactly what I say...
00:04:13I'm gonna kill her
00:04:15I don't have time for these games
00:04:16Congressman Marcus!
00:04:18I truly cannot believe that you don't care about your wife's life
00:04:22And I'm telling you, I get three or four of these scams a week
00:04:24So why don't you go kick rocks?
00:04:26I'll tell you one more time
00:04:27She's my hostage
00:04:29Well then call me when she's a corpse
00:04:33Woo!
00:04:34That man is fucking cruel, you know that?
00:04:38Heartless politician
00:04:40You know, if he doesn't care about whether or not you die
00:04:43I guess it's my choice
00:04:45And believe me
00:04:47You're beautiful
00:04:49It's a shame you're not going to know what you're going to do
00:04:53Fuck
00:04:54Marcus, you motherfucker!
00:05:09Tom?
00:05:12Tom, I keep getting scam calls to my phone
00:05:14I need you to check out the origin of the number
00:05:16I've already checked this number a hundred times
00:05:18I understand, but we need to make sure that my wife is safe
00:05:21Copy that
00:05:22Also, if you could just let Mr. Versace know I'll be right with him
00:05:41What are you doing?
00:05:50No, alcohol
00:05:55Are you kidding me?
00:05:56Give me that
00:06:04What's with the attitude?
00:06:13Hello?
00:06:14Mr. Klerka, the call had an antispiratory measure and it was too brief to trace
00:06:18They also used a voice changer, so voice analyst is out
00:06:23These people have no idea who they're dealing with
00:06:26They really think that my wife is my weakness
00:06:29Ridiculous
00:06:30Marcus, I cannot believe that the first thing I hear in three years is that you want me dead
00:06:36Tom, I need you to set up a security detail for Ariel
00:06:40And absolutely under no circumstances should she find out
00:06:43Just make sure it doesn't interfere with her life or work
00:06:45Understood?
00:07:00I've rigged this phone against tracking
00:07:02Your husband can't trace it
00:07:05Marcus marrying you three years ago from my sister was the biggest mistake of my life
00:07:10Now that I have my hearing back, I'm gonna make sure everything gets back on track
00:07:24Marcus, you're not supposed to see me before the wedding
00:07:26Take the dress off
00:07:28Really?
00:07:29This is what you want, to be the wife of a politician?
00:07:33It's just like the dress, it's not even yours
00:07:35Do I have a choice?
00:07:37Let's get things straight
00:07:38I need to marry Rochester in order to secure my run for the house
00:07:41Your sister runs off, so now you get to be the replacement
00:07:49So, I'm really just a replacement to you
00:08:05Yeah, yeah you are
00:08:11One, I'm technically gonna be married to Claire, so we have to conceal your identity
00:08:17Two, you're not making any public appearances
00:08:19And three, during our marriage, there are no children, whatsoever
00:08:24Okay?
00:08:26Are you listening?
00:08:27Why are you doing this to me?
00:08:32Because people like us are not afforded a choice
00:08:46Claire?
00:08:48Claire, are you okay?
00:08:51Claire?
00:09:09Has Ariel recovered any of her hearing since that sudden deafness at the wedding?
00:09:14It's not so bad being deaf, Mrs. Flick
00:09:16It spares Ariel from hearing anything that might damage Marcus' campaign for governor
00:09:21Exactly
00:09:22And when Marcus becomes governor, we might consider cosmetic surgery for Ariel
00:09:28Make her look more like her sister
00:09:30I'm sure the public will sympathize with Marcus, that he has not abandoned his disabled wife
00:09:36You're so wise, Mr. Flick, that's a brilliant strategy
00:09:40You all seem more concerned about politics than the well-being of my wife
00:09:44You really think it's appropriate gloating over her condition?
00:09:47I was just considering your career
00:09:49While we're on the topic, as long as I'm married to Ariel, we're not gonna be doing any reconstructive surgery to make her look like her sister
00:09:56I'm not going to allow it
00:09:58Why is he defending me now?
00:10:00On that note, we're gonna be taking our leave
00:10:11To be continued
00:10:22Stop!
00:10:27I'm visiting wildfire victims tomorrow, and I need your help picking an outfit
00:10:34Remember, nothing too high profile
00:10:41Oh, my goodness
00:10:47Not that
00:10:52Marcus
00:10:57It's a good thing you couldn't hear what my parents said about you
00:11:01I want to thank you all for making the time to be here today, I think that's a big deal
00:11:09I think it's important to just acknowledge that, in spite of recent events, it's...
00:11:23Divorce your wife, Ariel Rochester, within a month, or your scandal goes public
00:11:30Our state goes through a lot of disasters, mudslides, we deal with droughts, we deal with wildfires
00:11:43In my understanding, over the last 40 years, a lot of things have built up to this moment
00:11:49A lot of things that are perceived to bring us to...
00:11:53Excuse me
00:11:58Just one moment
00:12:03Who is this?
00:12:04Divorce your wife, Ariel Rochester, within a month, or your scandal goes public
00:12:09I don't think you've done your homework
00:12:11My wife's name is Claire
00:12:13No, Claire's the older sister
00:12:15She ran away three years ago, you married Ariel to save your political career
00:12:19What would your supporters think if they knew that you're a liar, and a hypocrite?
00:12:27What would your supporters think if they knew that you're a liar, and a hypocrite?
00:12:31Swapping lives between two sisters
00:12:33That is one of my worst things ever
00:12:37Tell me who the hell this is
00:12:38It doesn't matter who I am
00:12:40Divorce your wife, and...
00:12:41Your secrets disappear with me
00:12:42I mean, after all, she's just a substitute, and you hate her, so it shouldn't really be a problem
00:12:47There's no chance I'm divorcing Ariel
00:12:49There's nothing to think about it
00:12:51I'll give you a month, or...
00:12:53I'll kill her
00:12:59Kill her
00:13:01It must be because Marcus is running for governor, so now he doesn't want to divorce me
00:13:08Now I need a new plan
00:13:17Ah!
00:13:21Mr. Flick, you're about to be on camera, and the press will definitely make a big deal of that moment
00:13:27Tom, I want you to get me the best computer engineers in the world
00:13:30We're gonna nail the bastards threatening Ariel
00:13:33Copy that, sir
00:13:34Also, I need you to make it a top priority that we find a fashion consultant
00:13:39I want some fashion editor
00:13:41I want someone who understands political messaging
00:13:48Hi, Johnny
00:13:59There are some things that can only be appreciated once they're gone, you know?
00:14:03I mean, I've lived the past three years of my life in a silent hell, and now...
00:14:07Life has given me a second chance to hear again
00:14:12This time...
00:14:15I'm gonna live for myself
00:14:18This time...
00:14:21I'm gonna live for myself
00:14:25Johnny, you're my guardian angel, you know that, right?
00:14:29I mean, I know that when mom married into the Rochester family, they wouldn't accept you because of your...
00:14:36Differences, but...
00:14:38I need you to know that I would never give up on you
00:14:41Ever
00:14:44Okay?
00:15:11Doctor Park, is it possible to regain hearing in a case like my wife's?
00:15:15Is it treatable with surgery?
00:15:17Her sudden deafness was triggered by a severe shock
00:15:20We can attempt surgery, but I must be honest, the chances of success are very slim
00:15:27If it works, it would be...
00:15:29It's just something that doesn't happen very often
00:15:32I'm so sorry
00:15:34I know it's not the news you wanted to hear
00:15:36Thank you
00:15:38We're doing everything we can, okay?
00:15:40Okay
00:15:42There we go
00:15:49Learn to please your husband and have a baby, A-S-E-P
00:16:07I-I-I-I-I-I
00:16:11I-I-I-I-I-I
00:16:16I-I-I-I-I-I
00:16:20I
00:16:33Talk the man just sent me a few photos. I need you to trace him. Yes, sir
00:16:39Keep him on the line for more than five minutes for better tracking
00:16:50You see that it's a central photo of your wife that she sent to someone else. She's cheating on you
00:17:00My wife wouldn't cheat on me
00:17:04It's a central photo of your wife that she sent to someone else she's cheating on you
00:17:08My wife wouldn't cheat on me. Why you don't think she's attractive enough
00:17:13No, I think she's quite attractive actually. I
00:17:17Just know her and she wouldn't betray her promises
00:17:21You know those photos you sent the faces are unrecognizable
00:17:25How are you so confident that they're my wife? Didn't you just boast about knowing your wife?
00:17:29So well, there's a birthmark on her chest surely you're familiar with it. How do you know about the birthmark? Who are you?
00:17:35It doesn't matter who I am. You know my demands. What's your wife or this provocative political public?
00:17:41I'll claim that the perfect congressman can't satisfy his wife
00:17:45Leaving her to find happiness elsewhere. What do you gain if I divorce my wife?
00:17:55What do you gain if I divorce my wife
00:17:58Damn, I haven't thought of that. I hate her. I can't stand seeing her live such a privileged life
00:18:04Well, I'm not gonna indulge your twisted desires. She's my wife and I'm gonna protect her. Don't act like you really love her
00:18:10You're just worried that a divorce would hurt your political image
00:18:15If you love someone you don't trap them in a political sham marriage you hypocrite
00:18:23Hello this man is too complicated to understand
00:18:33No, sir, we've hit a snag with the anti-surveillance software, you know, it's only been traced in the general area
00:18:40Okay, go ahead your phone's location isn't within a five-mile radius which includes your house sir
00:18:49She's in danger
00:19:09I
00:19:39Don't
00:19:41Don't
00:20:03We require a candidate who grasps the significant impact of clothing on political image-making and
00:20:09Understands how each grommet can tell a compelling story
00:20:21Mom
00:20:23That's my work
00:20:24Instead of focusing on this garbage
00:20:27Why don't you learn how to dress nicely so you can catch a good man like your sister did mom?
00:20:32Clothing isn't just a tool for attracting men. I can't believe you just said that
00:20:36Ariel you're going to stop chasing these fanciful dreams. Do you remember where you came from?
00:20:42Without my marriage into the Rochester family. You wouldn't even have the money to attend a private school and focus on this nonsense
00:20:50If you don't want to end up poor again, listen to me
00:20:54Focus your efforts on finding a wealthy husband
00:20:57Just like I did
00:21:06Oh
00:21:15The worst I could say is now
00:21:24As long as this brings me closer to my dream of being a designer, I'm ready to work for anyone I
00:21:32Can't let anybody especially him find out I can hear again
00:21:36I have to stay silent in public and avoid reacting too quickly
00:21:39Maybe using text-to-speech is the best
00:21:53My name is Ariel Anderson, I graduated from the school of visual art with a degree in fashion design
00:21:58I lost my hearing due to an accident three years ago
00:22:01Unfortunately, a hearing aid won't really help
00:22:03I
00:22:08Considered that our hearing might affect your performance
00:22:11Recruiting a disabled woman will make our campaign team look more diverse and socially responsible
00:22:17The board is within better of us. I hear both of your concerns. However, the reality is we only need a wardrobe consultant. That's
00:22:26The congressman needs to attend an unscheduled event, please adjust the soda cart Billy
00:22:33Is she modifying it just by eye?
00:23:03I
00:23:24Feet nine inches tall
00:23:25165 pounds chest thirty three point six inches waist thirty two point nine inches hips thirty five point seven inches
00:23:32These are the congressman's measurements and I'm confident that they're accurate that's entirely correct
00:23:38True but I need a wardrobe consultant not a tailor
00:23:48Need a wardrobe consultant not a tailor. Sorry congressman. I can't hear
00:23:56I
00:23:58Want you to take a look at these photos tell us five things that you see wrong with them
00:24:19She's incredible
00:24:21I
00:24:41Was supposed to be divorcing him now, I guess I'm working with them
00:24:45I
00:24:51I'm Daniel
00:24:52Campbell
00:24:54It's good to meet you. I am so happy to have you on the team
00:24:58You're great
00:24:59Would you like to get a coffee?
00:25:03Sure. Yeah
00:25:16Who is that guy can we fire that guy
00:25:19That's inappropriate. We can't fire people for no good reason
00:25:22You know, that'll go against our team's reputation also not to mention the upcoming campaign. Well, then keep a close eye on it
00:25:29It's not part of my job
00:25:33So what happened
00:25:43Accident
00:25:45Oh
00:25:50Why don't you get on cochlear implants cochlear implants for your ear to
00:26:01Silence helps me work
00:26:15Yeah work Campbell my lunch break mr. Click, right
00:26:21Well, then I think my new wardrobe consultant needs to check on her duties
00:26:46Bring
00:26:54Didn't you insist that we hide the fact that we're married so why would I bother wearing a ring?
00:27:00Someone hitting on you
00:27:05Maybe you haven't noticed but I'm a human too. I have a life
00:27:08Oh
00:27:13My god
00:27:18Fucking asshole Ariel, I'm sorry. I'm sorry

00:27:56Marcus I cannot believe you threatened me with my own brother. What happened to you? What happened to us?
00:28:09The more successful he becomes the more he feels like a stranger he's nothing like the Marcus I've known since I was 16
00:28:29Don't worry just hold on tight and I'll always protect you
00:28:34Marcus
00:28:35How come you're always free to visit Johnny?
00:28:38Um, well your brother's my brother when I get older I'm gonna protect you, okay
00:29:08I
00:29:17Stay
00:29:22Congressman snake
00:29:25Forgive me for asking but why have I never been introduced to your wife your competitors bring their spouses to events like this and
00:29:32They do quite well for themselves, right?
00:29:35But I don't consider my wife to be an accessory she's her own person
00:29:39And elevator chain to me at all times you are the perfect husband
00:29:57You again
00:29:59Have you made up your mind are you divorcing your wife or not threats, huh? Go ahead. You're just gonna want to regress it

00:30:13Did you hear about this?
00:30:16In the gala

01:09:26Why are you here?
01:09:29I've been looking abroad
01:09:31Marcus and I have been talking keeping in touch over the last couple years and his assistant told me that he was hospitalized
01:09:38So sorry, I didn't realize you and Marcus still talked. I thought I'm
01:09:44You don't know that why he married you instead of me
01:09:55Claire if you're trying to convince me to stay don't bother
01:09:59Claire I admire your courage to leave the life you want. I don't want to be a pawn for the family's games anymore. I
01:10:07Want to be free, I know I'm not gonna hold you back anymore
01:10:12But you got to do one thing for me. Can you please tell your parents?
01:10:16Please tell him to let Ariel marry me
01:10:20Marcus chose me
01:10:23Marcus chose me
01:10:24He knew that Simone would marry you off for money if he couldn't
01:10:28He married you to protect you and if he acted indifferent, it's only because he didn't want you to get too attached
01:10:35I don't need to say that, you know Marcus
01:10:40They can't admit his feelings very easily, but his love it's
01:10:46Steeper than anyone's
01:10:50So
01:10:52He doesn't know that I've been in love with him since we were children it's always been you Ariel
01:11:00Ever since we were children, it's only ever been you
01:11:03He's always loved you
01:11:13Marcus you really are the dumbest asshole in the world. You know that right?
01:11:18Why didn't you tell me you married me to protect me? Why were you so cold? Why why did you?
01:11:27Why did you pretend you hated me
01:11:30Because none of it worked
01:11:33I still love you
01:11:37Of course I still love you I need you you can't leave me, okay
