00:00:00Your deployment's tomorrow. I'm still worried. Don't worry. I'm gonna be back. I'm gonna be
00:00:22safe and sound. The first thing we're gonna do is get married. I'll be waiting.
00:00:30Oh my god. Oh my god. It's so good to see you. It's so good to see you. I miss you a lot.
00:00:55I can't wait to go home together. Yeah, what are you having my dinner? I'm so sorry to interrupt,
00:01:01but have you seen Ace? He was supposed to come out with you. Ace? He's been back for a month.
00:01:06He didn't tell you. What? Call him up. You'll see. Let's go.
00:01:17Ace came back a month ago, but he hasn't been answering my calls.
00:01:22Ace. Ace, open up. I know you're in there. Ace! Ace!
00:01:32Ace!
00:01:50Ace, what are you doing?
00:01:52Who is that woman?
00:01:57Ace, open the door!
00:02:00Who the hell are you and what do you want with Ace?
00:02:03I need to see him.
00:02:10Ace!
00:02:12Explain!
00:02:13Look, I don't know what you want me to say.
00:02:14It's over. I got myself a new girl. It's time for you to move on.
00:02:21What do you mean it's over? I waited for you for three years. You said we were going to get married when you came back and now you're just telling me to move on?
00:02:29I was just fooling around that whole time. I didn't mean any of it. Besides, I was never in love with you like I am with Sally. She's the one, alright? It's not you.
00:02:39I don't believe you.
00:02:40I don't believe you. No, I demand that you come out here and talk to me face to face. You owe me that at least.
00:02:46That's the problem with you, isn't it? You're always demanding this, demanding that. If Elena's not happy, nobody's happy. You're a spoiled rich heiress and no guy wants a woman like that. Can't you understand that?
00:02:57Just fuck off. My dad was right about you. And I never should have fallen for you. I hate you, Ace Atkins!
00:03:18Did you really have to be so cruel? I mean, I feel like you probably could have told her the truth. She's not gonna leave you.
00:03:27That's what I'm afraid of. I love her. She's gotta let her go.
00:03:43Let's get you into that wheelchair.
00:03:57I want you to end things with Elena. The engagement is off. Take this money as your compensation.
00:04:13Mr. Pearson, I obviously always have had a lot of respect for you. Quite frankly, you have no interest in your money. All I need is a chance to talk to Elena. That's all I'm asking for.
00:04:23What can you possibly do for Elena? When you can't even stand on your own. All you'll do is break her heart. I'll never let my little girl marry a one-legged cripple. If you really love her, leave her alone.
00:04:35Come on.
00:05:02Thanks for telling me, Sally. Really appreciate it.
00:05:04We'll start physical therapy in 10 minutes. I'll go get the equipment.
00:05:13I love you, Elena. Forget about me. You'll find happiness again.
00:05:24Early this morning, Carter Pearson, CEO of Pearson Healthcare, was fatally shot by a gunman on 5th Avenue.
00:05:31Police suspect the attack may be related to the wave of insurance policy changes that Pearson Healthcare is preparing to implement.
00:05:38For now, the gunman remains at large, while Elena Pearson, the victim's daughter, is set to take over as CEO.
00:05:55Clean that up.
00:06:01Good morning, gentlemen. I've called this emergency meeting to make an important announcement.
00:06:08I will be continuing to advance healthcare reform.
00:06:11The goal is to ensure all patients receive fair insurance coverage, and to make healthcare more affordable for everyone.
00:06:20My plan...
00:06:24What the hell with your shit plan?
00:06:28You're giving away our profits to these poor people. I reject it.
00:06:32Uncle Houston, poor healthcare policies have led to my father's death.
00:06:36My plans are implemented to correct these wrongs.
00:06:39No matter what you say, I will never, ever change my mind.
00:06:43Oh, really?
00:06:46You think you can control the entire group?
00:06:49I'm not the only one against this bullshit plan.
00:06:51I'm not the only one against this bullshit plan.
00:06:51Enough!
00:06:54I'm not the only one against this bullshit plan.
00:07:01You're giving away a lot of people.
00:07:03vielesehen
00:07:08I can control
00:07:13You're gonna supply
00:07:13エ��
00:07:14Potion
00:07:16It's human
00:07:18That doesn't
00:07:19It's human
00:07:20Problem
00:07:21Looks like you all need some more training still.
00:07:38Got a long way to go.
00:07:42Will the healthcare heiress be able to bring about meaningful reform, or will she be next
00:07:46on the assassin's list?
00:07:49Josh, can you bring me my headset and my jacket, please?
00:07:51Ace, you're the CEO of the company.
00:07:54You could totally assign someone else to handle Elena's case.
00:07:57So you heard the news too, huh?
00:07:59I think anyone's gonna protect her like I would, Josh.
00:08:02I'll handle it.
00:08:05Elena, today, you're going to follow my plan to increase healthcare prices.
00:08:19We will vote to dismiss you as CEO.
00:08:22Simple as that.
00:08:23Simple as that.
00:08:24Without the board's approval, you have no right to dismiss me.
00:08:26Have you lost your mind?
00:08:38Forcing a signature is illegal.
00:08:39No one here will testify against me.
00:08:43Just sign the damn paper.
00:08:45Are you all going to let him do this?
00:08:48Elena, you're asking us to throw our money away on those lowlifes.
00:08:51Don't blame us because we're not picking your side.
00:08:53Let's go, guys.
00:08:54Come on.
00:08:55Get your hands off of her.
00:09:17No way.
00:09:18No way.
00:09:19That voice.
00:09:20It can't be him.
00:09:24It can't be him.
00:09:26A long time no see, Miss Pearson.
00:09:39I'm your personal bodyguard.
00:09:40It's been three years.
00:09:42I've missed you, Elena.
00:09:44You're my what?
00:09:46Jesus, Elena.
00:09:47Did you do something about your bodyguard?
00:09:49Stupid or something?
00:09:51You insult my boss again.
00:09:55You're going to be the one that needs some fucking healthcare.
00:09:58Okay, everyone out of my boardroom.
00:10:01Leave or you're fired.
00:10:07I don't give a shit.
00:10:08You're my uncle.
00:10:09There's only one way to deal with people like you, Elena.
00:10:12And that's to get rid of them.
00:10:14Just like I got rid of your father.
00:10:16What are you doing here?
00:10:21No one told me anything about needing a personal bodyguard.
00:10:25Well, Miss Pearson, Mr. Atkins.
00:10:30I'm Oliver, the family butler.
00:10:33Miss, Mr. Ace Atkins is the most sought after bodyguard in America.
00:10:39Now, as for the contract, he will provide you protection 24 hours to ensure your safety at all times.
00:10:49No.
00:10:50I won't have him as my bodyguard.
00:10:54I won't have him as my bodyguard.
00:10:57Oliver, you can get me literally anyone else.
00:11:01Anyone but him.
00:11:02Ma'am, I urge you to rethink this.
00:11:05With him around, your safety is practically guaranteed.
00:11:10Oliver, can you leave us alone for a minute?
00:11:13I need to talk to him.
00:11:14Yes, ma'am.
00:11:19Ace, what are you doing here?
00:11:20I was just making sure that you're safe.
00:11:22Healthcare CEOs are on high alert right now and, well, I was worried about you.
00:11:29We broke up three years ago.
00:11:31You cheated on me.
00:11:32You don't have the right to be worried about me.
00:11:34The last thing I need right now is you being my bodyguard.
00:11:39The contract's already signed, so I'll just cover the termination fee.
00:11:43No, go.
00:11:44I don't really understand why you're refusing all of this help.
00:11:50Are you afraid you're gonna fall in love with me again?
00:11:56Are you afraid you're gonna fall in love with me again?
00:11:58Why is my heart beating so fast?
00:12:01You're delusional.
00:12:03Oh, I know.
00:12:07The rational thing to do is to think of your safety right now, so just let me protect you.
00:12:12Only an idiot would entrust their safety to someone who cheated on them while they were engaged.
00:12:18Let go.
00:12:19Take me home.
00:12:28Later.
00:12:33Asshole.
00:12:34You broke my heart.
00:12:35Now you come back into my life like it's nothing?
00:12:43That's odd.
00:12:44I turned off the lights when I left the house, right?
00:12:54Someone broke in.
00:12:55The killer?
00:12:59Ah!
00:13:00Ah!
00:13:05Ah!
00:13:07Ah!
00:13:09Ah!
00:13:11Ah!
00:13:12Ah!
00:13:18Why so surprised, princess?
00:13:20Didn't you know you were gonna be next?
00:13:25No.
00:13:26I don't wanna die, please.
00:13:27Someone help me.
00:13:28Someone help me!
00:13:29Ah!
00:13:35Ah!
00:13:38Ah!
00:13:40Ah...
00:13:41Ah!
00:13:42Ah!
00:13:43Ah!
00:13:48Ah!
00:13:49Ah!
00:13:50Ah!
00:13:51Ah!
00:13:52Ah!
00:13:53Oh God, I thought I was going to die.
00:14:15You're safe.
00:14:17You're hurt.
00:14:18You're all right.
00:14:19You saved me.
00:14:22Nice.
00:14:23You're bleeding.
00:14:30He might be an asshole, but damn, he's even harder than he used to be.
00:14:35He's still got that same glow.
00:14:37God, I missed her.
00:14:40Do you remember the last time we had a better?
00:14:45He's hard.
00:14:59Yes, ma'am.
00:15:00That guy got you in the leg, too, right?
00:15:08I should wrap that up.
00:15:11You tried to stab me in the leg and he missed.
00:15:14It's fine.
00:15:15I saw the knife go straight into your leg.
00:15:18Yes, is there something wrong?
00:15:23It's fine.
00:15:24Okay.
00:15:25Take care.
00:15:41Oh my, am I interrupting?
00:16:04No, no, Ace cut himself and I was just helping
00:16:11you address the wound.
00:16:14Mr. Atkins, I brought your luggage up.
00:16:17Great.
00:16:18Wait, he's not staying with me.
00:16:21Yes, Miss Pearson, of course.
00:16:24That's exactly what a personal bodyguard does.
00:16:28The contract clearly states that Mr. Atkins must remain by your side 24-7 to ensure your safety.
00:16:37Oliver, it's not just about the contract.
00:16:40I can't let my ex-boyfriend live with me as my bodyguard.
00:16:46You must understand.
00:16:48You might very well be the next target.
00:16:52If you fail to understand this, then I shall have to tender my letter of resignation.
00:16:59Fine.
00:17:00Oliver, you win.
00:17:03Brilliant.
00:17:04Mr. Atkins, from here on out, Miss Pearson's safety is in your hands.
00:17:12I would take a bullet for her.
00:17:17Um, you're the first door on the left.
00:17:33You can stay there.
00:17:34Elena, please.
00:17:35Ace, let's just address the elephant in the room.
00:17:38We broke up three years ago, and that's that.
00:17:41Now, if you're going to be staying here, we need to establish some boundaries.
00:17:46So, here's how it's going to go.
00:17:48You are going to do your job as my bodyguard, and I'm going to live my life.
00:17:52Nothing else.
00:17:54Is that clear?
00:17:56Crystal.
00:17:58I'll go unpack myself.
00:17:59Is this his wallet?
00:18:13You said you never left me.
00:18:26So, why do you have a photo of me inside your wallet?
00:18:37I checked the house.
00:18:38It's all clear.
00:18:39Safe to sleep.
00:18:40Great.
00:18:41Thanks.
00:18:42I'm going to go to bed now.
00:18:56Ah!
00:18:57Shit!
00:19:11Sorry.
00:19:13I thought you were in danger.
00:19:15Just hand me that towel.
00:19:21You're in danger.
00:19:22Just hand me that towel.
00:19:39It's not like I haven't seen you before.
00:19:47Be professional.
00:19:49I'm still your boss, remember?
00:19:56Yes, ma'am.
00:19:57You've changed a lot, Elena.
00:20:07And after all these years, I still feel the same about you.
00:20:19Ace, I have some scar cream for you.
00:20:21Yeah, just hold on a second, one minute.
00:20:31Just have something for the scars I can put in.
00:20:41I'm surprised that you still show this much care for me still.
00:20:51Get out for yourself.
00:20:52I'm just helping you because I'm nice.
00:20:53Why not calm yourself?
00:20:54He's just a stupid ex with a hot body.
00:20:58Okay.

00:37:13you know uncle houston

00:37:19than my own father's murder
00:37:20could it be that you had something to do with his death

00:39:05i'll never leave you again
00:39:08josh said that there's someone in your heart
00:39:11someone that you can't forget
00:39:15is that someone me
00:39:16tell me ace
00:39:21yes
00:39:28that someone is you
00:39:31and it always has been
00:39:33if you love me then why did you break up with me
00:39:36look it's been a long day
00:39:37i don't think
00:39:38we should talk about it
00:39:41i'm just gonna end up hurting you
00:39:43but you did hurt me
00:39:45three years ago
00:39:47i waited for you to come back and marry me
00:39:50and then you left me for another woman
00:39:52you broke my heart
00:39:54and then you just walked back in my life
00:39:57like nothing happened
00:39:58no
00:39:59no
00:40:00No!
00:40:30Oh my god, I drank too much.
00:40:44Did we sleep together?
00:40:47Hungry?
00:40:49We had your breakfast.
00:40:52Last night, we...
00:40:56You were drunk. Very drunk.
00:40:58Took care of you. That was it.
00:41:00He's not gonna mention the kiss?
00:41:03Jerk.
00:41:06Well, thank you so much for taking such great care of me, Mr. Bodyguard.
00:41:21You've been far angrier about the healthcare reforms than my own father's murder!
00:41:26Haven't you dealt with that bitch Elena yet?
00:41:29She's starting to suspect I had something to do with her father's death.
00:41:31She's hard to handle.
00:41:33The bodyguard of hers is practically glued onto her.
00:41:36I can never get her alone and make any real progress.
00:41:38This will not do.
00:41:40She's been lobbying aggressively within the company.
00:41:43Some of the board are starting to support her reforms.
00:41:46If she keeps this up, I'll get pushed out of the company.
00:41:49What do you want me to do?
00:41:51The company's annual gala is this weekend.
00:41:55Elena will undoubtedly use it to rally more support from the board.
00:41:58What you're going to do is invite her to go as your date,
00:42:01and then you're going to propose to her publicly.
00:42:03Tell her she'll get more support from the board if she's married with a husband.
00:42:06We can use the engagement to shift public focus away from her form.
00:42:11Kill two birds with one stone. I like that.
00:42:13Exactly.
00:42:14The media will be there, and she won't reject you in front of everyone.
00:42:17There's no way she risks tanking the company's stock prices again.
00:42:21Elena, I was hoping I would be able to escort you to the company dinner this weekend.
00:42:33I told you Mr. Vegas would be chasing this person.
00:42:36He's bad for ages. His persistence is kind of impressive.
00:42:40Um, Chad, I...
00:42:49Elena, trust me.
00:42:50I can help you win over a couple more board members for the health care reform plan.
00:42:59Yeah.
00:43:00Yes, I would love to go to dinner.
00:43:02Great. See you later.
00:43:10How do I look?
00:43:24You look beautiful.
00:43:27You know, I don't know if you have to dress so... formally.
00:43:31What, are you jealous?
00:43:33I just don't think that that guy... deserves...
00:43:39all of this.
00:43:45Oh, speak of the double.
00:43:48Beautiful.
00:43:50Elena, we should get going. We're gonna be late.
00:43:52And, uh, Ace.
00:43:55Remember your place.
00:43:56Okay there, sport?
00:43:57You're the bodyguard.
00:44:00So make sure you keep a professional distance between you and your employer, yeah?
00:44:09I don't know.
00:44:10I don't know.
00:44:11I don't know.
00:44:12I don't know.
00:44:13I don't know.
00:44:14I don't know.
00:44:15I don't know.
00:44:16I don't know.
00:44:17I don't know.
00:44:18I don't know.
00:44:19Elena's health care reform plan might have some short-term losses, but I believe the
00:44:24long-term benefits far outweigh the small drawbacks.
00:44:28Forget about that for a moment.
00:44:30What we're really curious about is how far you two have gotten.
00:44:35Given the company's current PR crisis, announcing a wedding might actually help repair its image.
00:44:41Elena, Chad seems like an excellent match.
00:44:45Oh, um, Mr. and Mrs. Hans, you're mistaken.
00:44:49Chad and I are-
00:44:50Thank you for your blessing, and we'll seriously consider it.
00:44:56Our company has faced challenges recently.
00:45:00But, on this special night, our new CEO, Ms. Elena Pearson, would like to say a few words.
00:45:08Before Ms. Pearson says anything, I have a surprise for her.
00:45:20I have a surprise for her.
00:45:21Elena, I have loved you for so long.
00:45:38Will you marry me?
00:45:39Marry him!
00:45:40Marry him!
00:45:41Marry him!
00:45:42Marry him!
00:45:43Marry him!
00:45:44Marry him!
00:45:45Marry him!
00:45:46Marry him!
00:45:47Marry him!
00:45:48Marry him!
00:45:49Marry him!
00:45:50John, stand up.
00:45:51What are you doing?
00:45:52I don't know.
00:45:54Come on.
00:45:55Let's go.
00:45:56We're leaving.
00:45:57Okay.
00:46:08What the hell are you doing?
00:46:09Storming out like that in front of all those guests, you realized how bad you're making
00:46:18the company's image look.
00:46:19Oh, really?
00:46:20So, what, you're going to just marry that guy to save the company's image?
00:46:22That's ridiculous.
00:46:23Who I marry is none of your business.
00:46:26We're over, Ace.
00:46:27You're just my bodyguard, and you don't get to interfere with my life.
00:46:32You don't mean that.
00:46:34You don't love that guy, you barely fucking know him.
00:46:37him who I love is none of your concern don't pretend to care about me Ace Atkins when you
00:46:44push me away over and over again even if I said yes to Chad's proposal you would
00:46:49have nothing to do with it you couldn't stop me

00:56:57I'm proposing a new plan.
00:56:59It's set to pass on Monday, so please don't kill me.
00:57:01Shut your mouth.
00:57:04This isn't about health care.
00:57:05You got it all wrong.
00:57:06What?
00:57:07What?
00:57:09My uncle hired you?
00:57:16He paid you to kill my dad?
00:57:18Ding, ding, ding, ding.

00:59:13Oh.
00:59:14No.
00:59:14No.
00:59:15No.
00:59:15Are you crazy?
00:59:20He had a gun pointed at your head
00:59:22and you still went after him.
00:59:23I thought I lost you.
00:59:25It's going to be okay.
00:59:29I knew exactly what he was doing
00:59:31when he asked me to close my eyes.
00:59:32It's over.
00:59:43Who sent you?
00:59:45Okay, just get me a medic.
00:59:48I don't want to die.
00:59:49You're going to get some help
00:59:50as soon as you give me some fucking answers.
00:59:51So talk.
00:59:54It's Houston.
00:59:56He paid me to kill Carter.
00:59:59The kid, Emelina.
01:00:00There's proof.
01:00:01Where?
01:00:02My left jacket pocket.
01:00:04Just check it.
01:00:09Kill that idiot Carter Pearson
01:00:11and the $5 million is yours.
01:00:14Why would he murder his own brother?
01:00:20My father's been nothing but kind to him.
01:00:27It comes around the way.
01:00:30Everything's fine.
01:00:31Because I don't understand.
01:00:33Houston was the company's
01:00:34second largest shareholder.
01:00:36What more could he possibly want?
01:00:37Why would he murder my father?
01:00:42And in front of me, too.
01:00:44I'm going to have to live with that image
01:00:46scarred into the back of my mind
01:00:48for the rest of my life.
01:00:49Some people just want more.
01:00:51And it's never enough.
01:00:52They're just greedy and they're monsters
01:00:54and you never have to think about them again, okay?
01:00:55It's over.
01:00:58It's over.
01:01:03I want to go.
01:01:04Hey.
01:01:05Let's go.
01:01:06Okay.
01:01:06Yes.
01:01:07Okay.
01:01:17He's pulled over.
01:01:19What's wrong?
01:01:20Your arm, it's bleeding.
01:01:22Didn't you notice?
01:01:24No, I didn't notice.
01:01:25It must have happened during the fight.
01:01:27You're unbelievable.
01:01:30It's fine.
01:01:32Just pull over right up there.
01:01:33It's fine.
01:01:34No, I'll take care of it.
01:01:35We'll stop for a bit.
01:01:36Okay.
01:01:36He's, why did you cheat on me all those years ago?
01:01:53Why not?
01:01:53Come on.
01:01:54Tell me the truth or I swear I will wrap this bandage
01:01:56around your arm so hard you can't feel it.
01:01:58Hey, look.
01:02:05I screwed up.
01:02:07But that's in the past.
01:02:09I just want to move forward, okay?
01:02:12Please be honest with me.
01:02:13Do you still love me?
01:02:15Come on.
01:02:16Don't try and dodge the question.
01:02:18Today you could have called for backup, but you didn't.
01:02:21You charged right in to save me.
01:02:23If you didn't care about me,
01:02:26you wouldn't have gone to such extremes.
01:02:28I love you.
01:02:31Always had.
01:02:32Never stopped.
01:02:33Not even for a second.
01:02:35I believe you this time.
01:02:38Let's start fresh.
01:02:40I love you, Elena.
01:02:41I've always loved you.
01:02:51Dude, you need to get your prosthetic leg checked ASAP.
01:02:54I talked to Dr. Dean, and he said if you don't get treated soon,
01:02:56your leg may forever lose sensation.
01:03:04Today we're here to talk about my healthcare reform strategy.
01:03:08You can't even handle your personal life.
01:03:11The news came out, and this company's stock prices fell another five points.
01:03:16And yet you still think you can push through reforms.
01:03:19I'm the first to object.
01:03:21Elena, do you know how the other healthcare companies are mocking us?
01:03:25They're saying that we're spineless idiots because we let a woman become the CEO.
01:03:29Uncle Houston, if my scandals are causing such problems for the company,
01:03:37how do you plan to account for the damages that your actions have caused?
01:03:42Like hiring someone to kill my father.
01:03:45Like hiring someone to kill my father.
01:03:55That's slander.
01:03:56Your father was killed by an angry citizen who is dissatisfied with the current healthcare system.
01:04:02What does that have to do with me?
01:04:03Kill that idiot, Carter Pearson, and the five million dollars is yours.
01:04:15I testify that Houston Pearson paid me to kill Carter Pearson,
01:04:19and then he paid me to try to kill Elena Pearson.
01:04:22I hereby declare that Houston Pearson is immediately stripped of all his duties within this group.
01:04:35You murdered my father and tried to kill me.
01:04:38You need to pay for your crimes.
01:04:40You need to pay for your crimes.
01:04:42Who do you think you are?
01:04:44Do you think you can kick me out of Pearson Group?
01:04:47I gave everything to this company.
01:04:49Why should you, the daughter of that idiot Carter Pearson, inherit this company?
01:04:55What is wrong with increasing the claim denial rate?
01:04:58This company's profits doubled because I developed AI technology
01:05:02that increased our claim denial rate to 40%, the highest in the industry.
01:05:07And that old fool Carter, he dared to yell at me over this.
01:05:11He deserved to die.
01:05:13Every accomplishment you've made has been riding off to the coattails of struggling people
01:05:18and my father's life.
01:05:20And you show no remorse for them.
01:05:22You're a monster.
01:05:26Don't move.
01:05:30Raise your hands.
01:05:34Houston Pearson, your honor of rest for first-degree murder.
01:05:36Houston Pearson, your honor of rest for first-degree murder.
01:06:06Do you want to say?
01:06:09Great.
01:06:11All those in favor of implementing my health care reform strategy, raise your hand.

01:09:19Nothing.
01:09:20Just, uh...
01:09:21I don't know if we're in the right place or if it's the right time.
01:09:29What?
01:09:31After everything we've been through, Ace, I thought we were past this.
01:09:35I know, but I, uh...
01:09:37But what?
01:09:41I just, uh, I don't think we should rush into this.
01:09:44I think we should think this through, okay?
01:09:47You're a jerk.
01:09:51God, I'm an asshole.
01:09:57Why does he keep pushing me away?
01:09:59Oh, no, no.
01:10:21No, no.
01:10:21No.
01:10:22Ace! Ace!
01:10:30It's okay.
01:10:31Ace!
01:10:32It's okay. He's dead.
01:10:33It's over.
01:10:42Oh, my God!
01:10:44Miss Pearson!
01:10:45I'm going to call an ambulance.
01:10:52Is he going to be okay, doctor?
01:11:06I'll tell Alina about it.
01:11:10My prosthetic leg.
01:11:13All right.
01:11:14I respect your wishes.
01:11:15Unfortunately, the bullet didn't hit any vital organs.
01:11:23His physical condition is excellent, so he should recover quickly.
01:11:28Thank you, doctor.
01:11:30By the way, there's a police officer waiting for you in the reception room.
01:11:34Okay. I'll go there now, then.
01:11:40Officer, what's going on with the assassin?
01:11:42Why would someone try and kill me when Houston's already been apprehended?
01:11:49According to our investigation, Chad Vega, one of your company's executives,
01:11:53has been involved in a long-term illegal financial crimes with Houston.
01:11:58The killer was hired by him.
01:12:01What?
01:12:02Chad was in cahoots with Houston?
01:12:05Ten minutes ago, we apprehended Chad at his residence.
01:12:08You can rest assured that with Houston's testimony, all related individuals have been arrested.
01:12:14Are you safe?
01:12:15Considering your bodyguard was injured, the police are going to offer you protection until the trial is over.
01:12:22You can rest.
01:12:25I'm going to pick up Ace's clothes, and I'll be back tomorrow morning.
01:12:30Ace?
01:12:30Ace?
01:12:30What the hell?
01:12:56You're leaving me again?
01:12:57I won't let you leave without an explanation.
01:13:25It's her.
01:13:25The woman that Ace cheated on me with.
01:13:29So you're a physical therapist?
01:13:32That's your daughter and husband?
01:13:34Yes.
01:13:36I'm so sorry I deceived you three years ago.
01:13:39You didn't date Ace, so why did you help him deceive me?
01:13:42This involves Ace's privacy, and I'm not at liberty to disclose that information.
01:13:47But Alina, I assure you, Ace did not betray you.
01:13:52Then why?
01:13:54Why did he lie to me, make me hate him, and break up with me?
01:13:57I think you're supposed to uncover the truth for yourself.
01:14:02But I think that deep down, Ace really wants you to know everything.
01:14:07He's just too afraid to tell you.
01:14:17Alina, what are you doing there?
01:14:19Josh, Ace isn't at the hospital, and he just left me a note.
01:14:22Do you know where he is?
01:14:23What?
01:14:24Does he know how important it is to recover properly after his surgery for his new prosthetic leg?
01:14:33What do you mean, prosthetic leg?
01:14:35Oh, man.
01:14:39I wasn't supposed to say that.
01:14:40Josh, what do you mean prosthetic?
01:14:43All right.
01:14:45Three years ago, Ace's leg was blown off during combat.
01:14:49Your father told him that a disabled person would only burden you.
01:14:53So, he pretended to cheat on you and broke up with you.
01:14:57Later, after you got his prosthetic leg, he still felt like a disabled person.
01:15:02He thought a great girl like you deserved better.
01:15:05So, he avoided you at critical moments.
01:15:11Go check out the rehabilitation center.
01:15:14He's getting his new prosthetic leg fit right now.
01:15:16Go find him, man.
01:15:18Ace, you jerk.
01:15:20How could you keep something so important from me?
01:15:22This time, I won't let you go.
01:15:24I won't let you walk away again.
01:15:28Fortunately, you came in time.
01:15:30The whole prosthetic didn't do too much damage to the nerves.
01:15:32With treatment, you should recover naturally.
01:15:36This one is newly made for you.
01:15:38Try it.
01:15:39Thanks.
01:15:39Thanks, guys.
01:15:40Thanks, guys.
01:15:41Thanks, guys.
01:15:42Thanks, guys.
01:15:43Thanks, guys.
01:15:44Thanks, guys.
01:15:45Thanks, guys.
01:15:46Thanks, guys.
01:15:47Thanks, guys.
01:15:48Thanks, guys.
01:15:49Thanks, guys.
01:15:50Thanks, guys.
01:15:51Thanks, guys.
01:15:52Thanks, guys.
01:15:53Thanks, guys.
01:15:54Thanks, guys.
01:15:55Thanks, guys.
01:15:56Thanks, guys.
01:15:57Thanks, guys.
01:15:58Thanks, guys.
01:15:59Thanks, guys.
01:16:00Thanks, guys.
01:16:01Thanks, guys.
01:16:02Thanks, guys.
01:16:03Thanks, guys.
01:16:04Thanks, guys.
01:16:05Thanks, guys.
01:16:06This is the secret you've been keeping for me?
01:16:17This is why you've been pushing me away?
01:16:20What are you doing here?
01:16:21You shouldn't be here. You need to leave.
01:16:26This is why you've been pushing me away?
01:16:30Elena, you shouldn't be seeing me like this.
01:16:33I need you to leave right now.
01:16:35Why wouldn't you just tell me?
01:16:37Do you really think that little of me?
01:16:41That I'm just a shallow, unsupportive partner?
01:16:44How was I supposed to tell you this, Elena?
01:16:45I mean, why would a guy like me be able to be with a perfect woman like you?
01:16:53Huh?
01:16:54I mean, I can't even do half the things I was able to three years ago.
01:16:58I mean, you don't know how this feels, okay?
01:16:59I mean, just fucking look at me, Elena.
01:17:01I can't even stand up straight.
01:17:02But I love you.
01:17:05Ace, can't you see?
01:17:08No matter how you feel about yourself, I have always loved you.
01:17:13Always!
01:17:18Elena, come on, why?
01:17:20Stop pushing me away!
01:17:24Ace Atkins, you listen to me right now.
01:17:26You have left me so many times.
01:17:33You can't keep running from me.
01:17:36I am here to stay.
01:17:39Got it?
01:17:40I love you so much.
01:17:41I'm sorry.
01:17:42I'm sorry.
01:17:43I'm sorry.
01:17:43I'm sorry.
01:17:43I'm sorry.
01:17:44I'm sorry.
01:17:47I'm sorry.
01:17:49I'm sorry.
01:17:49I'm sorry.
01:17:51I'm sorry.
01:17:53I'm sorry.
01:17:54I'm sorry.
01:17:54I'm sorry.
01:17:55Nothing feels uncomfortable?
01:18:03Come on, don't try and be tough.
01:18:05No, this one's more comfortable than the last one, actually.
01:18:08So, you know, I wouldn't blame you if you didn't want to do this.
01:18:13I'm disabled and I might become a burden to you when we're older.
01:18:18Have you thought about that?
01:18:21If you ever say something so pessimistic again, I will twist your ear off.
01:18:27I love Ace Atkins.
01:18:29The person, not the leg.
01:18:32So what if you're missing a leg?
01:18:33I will love you all the same.
01:18:35Would you leave me if I was missing a leg?
01:18:37No, no, of course not.
01:18:42I will always be by your side.
01:18:45Then let me do the same.
01:18:49I am choosing you, okay?
01:18:54Got it.
01:18:54Got it.
01:18:56Miss Pearson, your compensation clause for critical illness has saved my daughter's life.
01:19:17Miss Pearson, your health care reform plan has been a great success, making you the most popular CEO in the U.S.
01:19:24What made you insist on health care reform despite everyone's doubts?
01:19:28I was able to overcome many obstacles and achieve reform success, partly due to great planning, but also because of my fiancé, Ace Atkins.
01:19:38His love helped me overcome all difficulties.
