00:00:00Surrogacy? What's surrogacy?
00:00:02Harvard Business School.
00:00:04MBA. Top of class.
00:00:06As for...
00:00:09intimate matters,
00:00:11I can assure you performance has never been an issue.
00:00:15Three years I've loved him.
00:00:17Everyone tells me Ethan will never change.
00:00:20But they don't see the real Ethan.
00:00:22I know he loves me.
00:00:30Oh my god!
00:00:34Three years I've wasted on you!
00:00:37I'm not gonna let you take this from me too.
00:00:39I don't need a man to make my dreams come true.
00:00:42One appointment, one sperm donor,
00:00:44I can have a baby of my own.
00:00:49Understand this clearly.
00:00:51We'll be parents, nothing more.
00:00:58Surrogacy.
00:00:59Five generations of Crawford dignity
00:01:02destroyed by tabloid gossip.
00:01:06Adrian,
00:01:07I can make all of this disappear.
00:01:10Perfect couple, right?
00:01:11Until...
00:01:13Dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun-dun.
00:01:14All you have to do is remember
00:01:16who you really belong to.
00:01:18That's for every lie you just told.
00:01:21Your fault!
00:01:22You need your feeling.
00:01:23Plan to get rid of them.
00:01:26Get up!
00:01:27Three years.
00:01:37Three years I've loved him.
00:01:39Everyone tells me Ethan will never change.
00:01:41That a man like him only loves himself.
00:01:43But they don't see the real Ethan.
00:01:48I know he loves me.
00:01:51Thank you so much.
00:01:53I really, really appreciate it.
00:01:56Tonight, it will be our big night.
00:01:58And I'll give him all of me.
00:02:00We'll make a beautiful baby together.
00:02:03A family of our own.
00:02:17I'm so sorry.
00:02:19I'll give him all of you.
00:02:21I'll give him all of you.
00:02:22I'll give him all of you.
00:02:23I'll give him all of you.
00:02:24I'll give him all of you.
00:02:25I'll give him all of you.
00:02:26I'll give him all of you.
00:02:27I'll give him all of you.
00:02:28I'll give him all of you.
00:02:29I'll give him all of you.
00:02:30I'll give him all of you.
00:02:31I'll give him all of you.
00:02:32Hmm?
00:03:02Hmm?
00:03:32Oh my god!
00:03:36Voila! You're Earl!
00:03:39Why so shocked, babe?
00:03:41You're always talking about wanting to try new things, hmm?
00:03:47Come and join us!
00:03:53Three years! Three years! I wasted on you!
00:03:57God, I'm such an idiot!
00:04:00I think I was gonna have a baby! With you!
00:04:04Baby? Sweetheart!
00:04:08You wouldn't even put out after three years and now you're thinking about playing mommy?
00:04:13Though...
00:04:15If you're finally ready to spread those legs...
00:04:18These lovely ladies can show you how it's done!
00:04:23Screw you!
00:04:30I'm not gonna let you take this from me too!
00:04:40You know what? I don't need a man to make my dreams come true!
00:04:46One appointment? One sperm donor? I can have a baby of my own!
00:04:50Six months to produce an heir or I lose control of Crawford Industries to my nephew!
00:05:04Everything I've built over the last decade... Gone!
00:05:09The surrogate candidates are all thorough with...
00:05:12Ivy League are educated...
00:05:14Impeccable health histories...
00:05:15I don't need their resumes, Thompson!
00:05:17I need someone who won't turn this into a media circus!
00:05:20Find me someone who knows your place and will disappear after delivery!
00:05:24You don't need your
00:05:27I need someone who knows what the hell is...
00:05:29Oh, man!
00:05:30Aaaaah!
00:05:31I need a man to kill your body of your body!
00:05:33You're going to kill him!
00:05:34Come on, I need a man!
00:05:35You're going to kill him!
00:05:37You're going to kill him!
00:05:38You're going to kill him!
00:05:39You're going to kill him!
00:05:40I need some shouts!
00:05:41Hey, you're going to kill him!
00:05:43The...
00:05:44The...
00:05:45The...
00:05:46He is...
00:05:47Miss, are you here for the interview?
00:06:11The interview?
00:06:12Yes, of course.
00:06:17Right, let's get started.
00:06:33Hey, education background.
00:06:38Excuse me?
00:06:39And I'm going to need a full medical history, specifically genetic disorders, to work out.
00:06:48I mean, you look acceptable.
00:06:58Do you have any idea who I am?
00:07:00I'm just trying to be thorough.
00:07:04It's about creating a healthy baby after all.
00:07:07Why are attractive men so full of themselves?
00:07:12I don't care if you're Brad Pitt.
00:07:15I need to know your reproductive history.
00:07:17So, sexual partners in the last six months?
00:07:22It's a craft company.
00:07:23I can show her out.
00:07:25Thompson, leave us.
00:07:29What are you doing?
00:07:32Making sure this interview is more thorough.
00:07:36Harvard Business School.
00:07:45MBA.
00:07:46Top of class.
00:07:47No family history of genetic disorders.
00:07:49I work you out five times a week.
00:07:53As for intimate matters, I can assure you performance has never been an issue.
00:08:03Now Thompson is gone.
00:08:04Are you comfortable to share yours?
00:08:06Yes.
00:08:07Of course.
00:08:08I'm perfectly healthy, too.
00:08:13No genetic disorders, and I get regular checkups.
00:08:17Um, I've even been taking prenatal vitamins.
00:08:21You really do seem like the perfect match.
00:08:26Good.
00:08:27Now, regarding compensation, what figure did you have in mind?
00:08:32Well, I was thinking around $800.
00:08:38800?
00:08:39I expected the fee to be significantly higher.
00:08:44I know, I know it's not a lot of money, but considering the quality, I could, I could help,
00:08:54I can do paperwork, whatever.
00:08:56Top to me.
00:08:57Bring in the contracts.
00:09:06All of this?
00:09:07Seriously?
00:09:08Take your time to review.
00:09:11But the key point is after birth, the child stays with me.
00:09:15No contact.
00:09:18You want to keep my baby?
00:09:20Are you insane?
00:09:26That's standard procedure for surrogacy arrangements.
00:09:29Surrogacy?
00:09:30Surrogacy.
00:09:31The position you're interviewing for.
00:09:34Interview?
00:09:35I'm hated by sperm.
00:09:37You came to what?
00:09:39I thought you were a donor.
00:09:41That's why I was asking you all the questions about the history and stuff.
00:09:45I thought you were here to be my surrogate.
00:09:48Right.
00:09:49Um, well, I guess, I guess I've made a mistake, so I'm just gonna go.
00:09:54Wait!
00:09:59A million dollars for carrying my child.
00:10:02I want my own baby, Mr. Crawford.
00:10:07Not somebody else's.
00:10:11Ah.
00:10:12You might need that.
00:10:21Clean this up.
00:10:22Bring in the next.
00:10:23Hello?
00:10:31Miss Reed.
00:10:32Your father.
00:10:33You need to come now.
00:10:35Okay.
00:10:35I'm coming.
00:10:36Doctor, how is he?
00:10:48How is my father?
00:10:49The cancer is spread aggressively without immediate treatment.
00:10:53Then, then do something.
00:10:54Save him!
00:10:55Is there a treatment you can do?
00:10:56Uh, there is a new treatment.
00:10:57Okay, then let's do it.
00:10:58But maybe it's quite expensive.
00:10:59How much?
00:11:00Around one million dollars.
00:11:01A million dollars?
00:11:02Yes.
00:11:03Can I get a loan?
00:11:04A loan?
00:11:05A loan?
00:11:06A loan?
00:11:07A loan?
00:11:08A loan?
00:11:09A loan?
00:11:10A loan?
00:11:11A loan?
00:11:12A loan?
00:11:13A loan?
00:11:14A loan?
00:11:15A loan?
00:11:16A loan?
00:11:17A loan?
00:11:18A loan?
00:11:19A loan?
00:11:20Can I get a loan or something?
00:11:25Actually, this is a new technology.
00:11:27And there is no loan policy.
00:11:28Sorry.
00:11:50This is the last batch.
00:12:10Yes sir, the blonde want to know about ring sizes, and brunette asked about moving in,
00:12:19and the redhead, all of them want the Crawford name, and was qualified.
00:12:28She was refreshing, no pretense, no schemes, but she wasn't even here for surrogacy.
00:12:37She's the best candidate, isn't looking for the job.
00:12:47Hello.
00:12:49I'm Adrian Crawford.
00:12:53I'm Adrian Crawford.
00:13:05I've been thinking.
00:13:07I've been thinking.
00:13:09About yesterday, I may have been a bit hasty.
00:13:13You're reconsidering.
00:13:14Don't sound so smug about it.
00:13:16I have my reasons.
00:13:17As do I.
00:13:21I'd like to propose a modification to the original terms.
00:13:26What kind of modification?
00:13:28Joint custody.
00:13:30You wouldn't be just carrying the child, you'd be the baby's mother.
00:13:33Why would you agree to that?
00:13:35You're honest.
00:13:36Direct.
00:13:37No hidden agenda.
00:13:40Qualities I want in my child's mother.
00:13:42So I'd really get to be a part of the baby's life?
00:13:45Yes.
00:13:46But understand this clearly.
00:13:48We'll be parents.
00:13:49Nothing more.
00:13:50No romantic entanglements.
00:13:53No emotional expectations.
00:13:57Don't flutter yourself.
00:13:59God, rich man in their egos.
00:14:05Father.
00:14:06The board is getting impatient.
00:14:09Have you considered the arrangements I suggested?
00:14:12I've already made my own plans.
00:14:14Adrian, if you're thinking of using some random surrogate to produce an heir, forget it.
00:14:21The Crawford name means something.
00:14:24I won't let it be tainted by...
00:14:26I've already chosen my fiancé.
00:14:28What?
00:14:29We'll discuss this at dinner.
00:14:31Did I just get promoted from surrogate to fiancé?
00:14:41Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you just say, just parents, nothing more?
00:14:48The situation requires... adaptation.
00:14:53Hmm.
00:14:54Is that CEO talk for I change my mind?
00:14:57If we need a convincing story, you'll be staying at my house during the pregnancy.
00:15:01And after the baby comes?
00:15:03We'll arrange for an amicable separation, continue parenting, and I'll arrange for any additional compensation for the complexity.
00:15:12The original amount is fine, but I am gonna need it soon.
00:15:17Yes.
00:15:18Welcome to the family, Miss Reed.
00:15:39Wow.
00:15:41I think my whole apartment could fit in this entryway.
00:15:47Well, well, well.
00:15:56Missed me so much, you tracked me down.
00:16:02Can't get over me, huh?
00:16:06Following me here like a lost puppy?
00:16:09Following you? Why would I...
00:16:10What are you doing here?
00:16:12Sweetheart, this is my family's house.
00:16:15I'm sure you know that.
00:16:17Hmm.
00:16:18You never let me have sex with you.
00:16:20But look at you now, sneaking into my house.
00:16:24Finally realize what you're missing, baby?
00:16:26Get your hands off me, you creep!
00:16:29Hmm.
00:16:30Playing hard to get used to be cute, but now?
00:16:33Come on, baby.
00:16:34We both know this is what you came here for.
00:16:37Uncle!
00:16:38Uncle!
00:16:39What are you doing?
00:16:40Get your filthy hands off my fiancé!
00:16:44Your... your... what?
00:16:46Fiancé?
00:16:49Fiancé?
00:16:50How could she be your fiancé?
00:16:51She's just...
00:16:52Watch your mouth.
00:16:53Show some respect to your future aunt.
00:16:59This is crazy!
00:17:00You seriously don't know.
00:17:01I won't repeat myself.
00:17:03Stay away from my fiancé.
00:17:05One more word?
00:17:06You can kiss that trust fund.
00:17:08Goodbye.
00:17:09Goodbye.
00:17:27You alright?
00:17:29Yeah, so...
00:17:31Ethan.
00:17:32He's your nephew.
00:17:34Then he's your...
00:17:37Well, he was...
00:17:38He's kinda...
00:17:40He was my boyfriend.
00:17:41I mean, ex-boyfriend.
00:17:42I mean, like, extremely ex-ex-boyfriend.
00:17:47I see.
00:17:49Thompson will bring your things in shortly.
00:17:53Sorry.
00:17:55Um...
00:17:57So...
00:17:58Where am I staying?
00:18:02Here.
00:18:04What?
00:18:05Unless you prefer explaining to the staff why the happy couple sleep in separate rooms.
00:18:10Oh, of course.
00:18:11Fake engagement.
00:18:12Real roommates.
00:18:17Don't worry.
00:18:18I'll be a perfect gentleman.
00:18:24What are you doing?
00:18:25This is the line.
00:18:26Don't cross it.
00:18:27Ever.
00:18:28For sure.
00:18:29Good.
00:18:30For sure.
00:18:31Good.
00:18:32Good.
00:18:33Good.
00:18:34Good.
00:18:35Good.
00:18:36How many people do this?
00:18:37Good.
00:18:38How many people do this?
00:18:39What are you doing?
00:18:40What are you doing?
00:18:42This is the line.
00:18:43Don't cross it.
00:18:44Ever.
00:18:45For sure.
00:18:46Good.
00:18:48Good.
00:18:50What are you doing?
00:18:51This is the line.
00:18:53Don't cross it.
00:18:54Ever.
00:18:55For sure.
00:18:56Good.
00:18:57Good.
00:18:59Good.
00:19:00Good.
00:19:01Good.
00:19:02My plan worked perfectly.
00:19:17Wait.
00:19:18How did I?
00:19:28Sir, are you okay?
00:19:31Fine.
00:19:32Continue.
00:19:41Stay on your side.
00:19:49Lila, wake up.
00:19:55Lila, please.
00:19:56Lila, let's go.
00:20:03Lila, let's go.
00:20:05Lila, let's go.
00:20:07Lila, let's go.
00:20:18Lila, let's go.
00:20:20Lila, let's go.
00:20:22Lila, let's go.
00:20:24Lila, let's go.
00:20:37Lila, let's go.
00:20:39Lila, let's go.
00:20:42Lila, let's go.
00:20:46My brother's mysterious fiancé.
00:20:49Mrs. Crawford.
00:20:51Catherine, please. We're family now. Supposedly.
00:20:55Helen, tea, please.
00:20:57Yes, Mrs. Crawford?
00:21:02So tell me, dear, how did you and Adrian meet exactly?
00:21:06Through mutual friends.
00:21:09Oh, really? Mutual friends?
00:21:14Dear, what friend of Adrian's would possibly move in your social circles?
00:21:22Unless this is more of a business arrangement?
00:21:26I'm sorry?
00:21:27Well, a girl of your position, surely some negotiation was involved?
00:21:33The only negotiation was whether I would take his last name or keep my own.
00:21:44Next weekend is our family dinner, and as Adrian's fiancé, your presence is required.
00:21:54I'd be honored.
00:21:56Perfect. I'm sure you can find something more appropriate to wear.
00:22:02You can go now.
00:22:12Excuse me, Miss Rie. I need to clean.
00:22:18Of course. Let me just...
00:22:20Is this what you're wearing to the family dinner?
00:22:30How creative.
00:22:32Must be hard on your family.
00:22:34Watching you chase after rich men.
00:22:37Let me help you with this.
00:22:39My friend!
00:22:40How clumsy of me.
00:22:42You did that on purpose.
00:22:44Do you think you can really marry Mr. Crawford?
00:22:47You're just trash trying to climb the social ladder.
00:22:54Mr. Crawford! She just attacked me!
00:22:59I was trying to help with the...
00:23:01Get out!
00:23:02But I was just...
00:23:03One more word and you're fired.
00:23:06Get out!
00:23:15What happened?
00:23:16Nothing.
00:23:17I need some space.
00:23:18I want to stay in the guest room tonight.
00:23:20Lila, you don't have to do that.
00:23:21I need some space!
00:23:25You take the bed.
00:23:27I'll take the sofa.
00:23:28I miss you so much, Daddy.
00:23:31Don't worry about me, okay?
00:23:33As long as we can get you better,
00:23:35I won't let their words get to me.
00:23:37I promise.
00:23:39Lila, what happened?
00:23:41What should I do?
00:23:43How's the happy couple?
00:24:07Oh, that's awkward.
00:24:11Just a small thing.
00:24:12Um, that is not a small pinch.
00:24:14It's okay.
00:24:16I'm here.
00:24:18You're safe.
00:24:21Perfect timing for the injection.
00:24:42What?
00:24:43I've had had this one.
00:24:45The death of Yannis was a very small knife.
00:24:49Correct?
00:24:50That's weird.
00:24:51I don't know.
00:24:53I'll see you.
00:24:54Yeah.
00:24:55I'll see you.
00:24:56You're safe.
00:24:57You need to rest, you'll be able.
00:24:58I may have to check this one.
00:24:59I might have to check this out,
00:25:00I'll see you next time.
00:25:01I'll see you later.
00:25:02I'll see you later,
00:25:03in the storage room,
00:25:04I'll see you later.
00:25:05Focus. This is just a simple metaphor procedure. Just pretend she's not right outside.
00:25:19Mr. Crawford, is everything okay in there?
00:25:22Um, yeah, I'm fine. I just need some assistance.
00:25:27Oh, do you need my help?
00:25:29No, I didn't mean...
00:25:31Are you sure? Honestly, it's fine. I can come in if you need me to.
00:25:35Come in.
00:25:45So, you want to help?
00:25:48Of course. What do you need me to...
00:25:51Oh, you're...
00:25:56Oh, you're...
00:25:57I'm so sorry. I didn't realize.
00:26:00I'm just... I'm just gonna... just go somewhere. I just need you. Somewhere very far.
00:26:06Ah!
00:26:07It's fine.
00:26:10Well, that was helpful.
00:26:16Are you okay?
00:26:19Yeah. Dr. Anderson said that the hormone shocks would hurt, but it's...
00:26:23It's causing you pain.
00:26:24Yeah, it's... it's a little uncomfortable, but I mean, it will... it will pass.
00:26:30Oh.
00:26:30Here.
00:26:33Oh, okay.
00:26:34Okay.
00:26:34I can't.
00:26:47Thanks.
00:26:52Well, the hormone shocks were a part of the agreement, and any resulting pain is technically a work-related issue.
00:26:57And as your employer, I have a duty of care.
00:27:02Okay.
00:27:02Purely professional care.
00:27:32Purely professional, huh?
00:27:50Adrian.
00:27:53Um, about this weekend...
00:27:55I'm sorry. There's an emergency in Atlanta. The merge is falling apart.
00:27:59Thompson, get the jet ready in 20.
00:28:01Your family invited me to dinner. Guess I'll handle it on my own.
00:28:11Well, I don't suppose we should expect punctuality from a person who's probably never had a proper watch in her life.
00:28:18I introduce him to the Lawson Harris, the senator's daughter.
00:28:23I don't understand why he picked this gold digger from God knows where.
00:28:27What did you say she did, Ethan? Retail?
00:28:31Worse.
00:28:32A wannabe writer.
00:28:34She probably thought that landing a Crawford would be her best-selling story.
00:28:37Well, I have tried to be welcoming.
00:28:45I had the chef prepare her place, setting, and everything.
00:28:47She probably couldn't figure out which work to use, though.
00:28:49I apologize for the sight delay.
00:29:07My, my.
00:29:09Trying so hard to look the part.
00:29:12James, do make sure none of the silver goes missing after dinner.
00:29:16I suppose Adrian's credit card is getting some good use.
00:29:20And although money can buy designer clothes, it can't buy breeding.
00:29:24Actually, I made this dress myself.
00:29:27Oh, darling.
00:29:32A seamstress for a daughter-in-law?
00:29:35How quaint.
00:29:39At least we know who's going to be mending Adrian socks.
00:29:43I may not have been born into privilege,
00:29:46but I was raised with something much more valuable.
00:29:50Integrity.
00:29:51Integrity.
00:29:52Is that what you call seducing your way into our family?
00:29:58How much?
00:29:59How much will it take you to disappear?
00:30:03Paying your price.
00:30:06The difference between you and I, Mr. Crawford,
00:30:10is that I don't think that everything comes with a price tag.
00:30:14Excuse me.
00:30:15Stay calm.
00:30:27You can do this.
00:30:33Getting all dressed up for me, baby.
00:30:43What's the rush?
00:30:45We're all family here.
00:30:47Well, almost family.
00:30:49Don't touch me.
00:30:51You used to like it when I touched you.
00:30:54Remember how shy you were?
00:30:56Always saying no.
00:30:58Ramp off me, baby!
00:31:00Careful, though.
00:31:02One scream from you,
00:31:04and everyone at dinner is going to know
00:31:05what kind of girl you really are.
00:31:08Now, where were we?
00:31:10Ow!
00:31:11Ow!
00:31:12Everything all right, dear?
00:31:20You look flushed.
00:31:22So,
00:31:23as I was saying about the muscles...
00:31:26Stop it!
00:31:30Something wrong, Miss Reed?
00:31:32No, I just...
00:31:33Stop it!
00:31:36Enough!
00:31:37No class?
00:31:39No manners?
00:31:40I don't know how you seduced my son,
00:31:43but someone like you
00:31:45could never deserve a place in this family!
00:31:48I...
00:31:48I...
00:31:49I'm the one who pursued her.
00:31:56Who convinced her to give me a chance.
00:32:01Adrian.
00:32:01If anyone's unworthy in this relationship,
00:32:04it's me.
00:32:05You want to know how we met?
00:32:07She crashed into my life,
00:32:08quite literally.
00:32:09Papers flying,
00:32:10coffee spilled.
00:32:11Unlike some people,
00:32:13she didn't care about my name
00:32:14or my money.
00:32:17She, uh,
00:32:18refused me several times.
00:32:20Called me too arrogant,
00:32:21too controlling.
00:32:22First woman who dared
00:32:24stand out to me,
00:32:25and that's when I knew
00:32:26I had to have her.
00:32:26I...
00:32:27Sir, two things.
00:32:33Your sister has invited Miss Reed
00:32:35to tonight's family dinner,
00:32:36and your jet is ready.
00:32:37We can go now.
00:32:43Cancel it last.
00:32:44I said a merger...
00:32:46Yes, sir.
00:32:49Funny that last week
00:32:51family's dinners were
00:32:52the most pointless waste of time
00:32:54in existence.
00:32:57Something's more important
00:33:00in business.
00:33:04Oh, what a touching story, Uncle.
00:33:08Too bad it's either a
00:33:10complete lie,
00:33:11or she's been playing us both.
00:33:14What are you talking about?
00:33:16We've been dating
00:33:17for three years.
00:33:19I have pictures of us together.
00:33:25What?
00:33:26She probably planned this
00:33:28from the start.
00:33:29Dating me
00:33:30to get close to the family,
00:33:32then
00:33:32setting her sights higher.
00:33:34You manipulative
00:33:35little tree.
00:33:36Face it, Uncle.
00:33:37You're just another rung
00:33:39on her ladder
00:33:39to the top.
00:33:42Face it, Uncle.
00:33:44You're just another rung
00:33:45on her ladder
00:33:46to the top.
00:33:51That's for every lie
00:33:53you just told.
00:33:54Adrian!
00:33:57How dare you
00:33:58hit my son!
00:33:59Where do you think
00:34:00you're going?
00:34:00We are not finished here yet!
00:34:02Yes, we are!
00:34:08I'm sorry.
00:34:09I shouldn't have left you
00:34:10alone with that.
00:34:11Thank you for coming back
00:34:12and for making up
00:34:14such a beautiful story
00:34:15about us.
00:34:20Your hands,
00:34:21what happened?
00:34:22As my fiancée,
00:34:39you have access
00:34:39to the family accounts.
00:34:41I expect you to use them.
00:34:43I...
00:34:43I didn't want to presume.
00:34:45You're a Crawford now.
00:34:46Dr. Anderson.
00:34:58Mr. Crawford,
00:35:00the embryos are ready
00:35:01so we can proceed
00:35:03with the implantation
00:35:03tomorrow morning.
00:35:05I see.
00:35:08What is it?
00:35:09Is something wrong
00:35:10with the embryos?
00:35:11I've been thinking
00:35:12perhaps we should
00:35:15approach this matter
00:35:16in a more
00:35:17natural manner
00:35:19between the husband
00:35:21and wife.
00:35:25What are your thoughts?
00:35:28I think that
00:35:30we should go to bed.
00:35:32We have a really
00:35:33big day tomorrow.
00:35:35So...
00:35:37I mean...
00:35:38Good night.
00:35:39You know,
00:35:45you look like
00:35:45a giant polar bear
00:35:47in that outfit.
00:35:49Focus on the procedure.
00:35:53Try to relax,
00:35:54Mrs. Crawford.
00:36:01There.
00:36:03See that white spot?
00:36:06That's our baby.
00:36:07You know,
00:36:13I can walk.
00:36:15Doctor's orders?
00:36:16You seem more nervous
00:36:17than I do.
00:36:23Merely following
00:36:24medical pursuit.
00:36:24Look at her.
00:36:36She's acting
00:36:37like a princess.
00:36:39She was probably
00:36:40a waitress last week.
00:36:44Now she's got
00:36:45Mr. Crawford
00:36:46wrapped around
00:36:47her finger.

00:47:24What happened back there?
00:47:39Talk to me.
00:47:41Lila, I am worried.
00:47:44So you talked to Ethan, but not me.
00:47:47Oh, you do care so much about your nephew, don't you?
00:47:54Lila, open the door.
00:48:10Please.
00:48:24The eggs are still warm.
00:48:45I apologize about last night.
00:48:47I was just worried about you.
00:48:50Worried about me or worried about the baby?
00:48:53What do you mean?
00:48:59Is this why you're being so nice to me?
00:49:02Making me breakfast, being all protective?
00:49:05It's just for the baby?
00:49:09Lila, you're being so strange since yesterday.
00:49:12Why?
00:49:14Was Vivian your girlfriend?
00:49:15Yes.
00:49:28And then she got with Ethan?
00:49:33Yes.
00:49:33Okay, so I'm just...
00:49:36But Vivian and I were...
00:49:37Sir, the Singapore Marjorie is falling apart.
00:49:46We need you immediately.
00:49:47I'm in the middle of summer.
00:49:49The board is threatening to pull out.
00:49:52I'll be there.
00:49:53We need you to finish this conversation as soon as I get back.
00:50:02Of course.
00:50:03Business first.
00:50:08Lila.
00:50:10Just go.
00:50:10Sir, there have been complications.
00:50:25Explain.
00:50:26During your absence, Mr. Ethan has been meeting with board members.
00:50:30Such as seeing how sudden marriage plans indicate obstacle decision-making.
00:50:36Several executors are questioning if someone so personally distracted should inherit the company.
00:51:00Mr. Crawford, we've been discussing my personal life.
00:51:03Your sudden access has let me be very clear.
00:51:12This company took a 40% profit loss before I took over.
00:51:18Within three years, I tripled our market share.
00:51:20Every major merger, every successful acquisition, every stock surge, my execution, my strategies.
00:51:28So, yes, I am getting married.
00:51:32And, yes, I took some time off.
00:51:34And, no, not a single person in this room has the right to question my commitment or my capability.
00:51:42Because without me, there wouldn't be a company left to inherit.
00:51:48Now, shall we discuss the merger?
00:51:58The ship's Gaza Rising control, if we're in the right to choose another company, which is the laden, and can't install it.
00:52:12The ship's Ahl.
00:52:13They weren't are I.
00:52:14And now, shall we answer until the位置?
00:52:16Well, the ship's all over.
00:52:17I'll find out that boat and repertoire.
00:52:18The ship's all over wilber.
00:52:19Now, the ship's all over.
00:52:20So, we're going to be그래atan themselves.
00:52:22Well, what's up and goodbye?
00:52:24Adrian, what the hell were you thinking at the board meeting yesterday?
00:52:40I was doing my job.
00:52:41Your job is to follow the family strategy.
00:52:46Ever since she came into your life, you've been undermining everything we've built.
00:52:51You leave Lila out of this.
00:52:54You know, I don't have to stand here and listen to this.
00:52:57Yeah, run along.
00:52:59Adults are talking business now.
00:53:01We just need to bore him for a moment, dear.
00:53:04Business matters.
00:53:06You wouldn't understand.
00:53:13That girl is a poison to the Crawford name.
00:53:21She's nothing but a broodmare.
00:53:26After she delivers, pay her off and be done with it.
00:53:31Adrian needs someone who understands this world.
00:53:34Someone like me.
00:53:35Vivian is joining Crawford Industries tomorrow.
00:53:41Non-negotiable.
00:53:43She will follow you every day, just like before.
00:53:46And your little pet project can't stay home and just state that's all she's good for.
00:53:51Get out!
00:53:55Both of you!
00:53:56How dare you!
00:53:57If you dare mention my wife's name again, I will burn Crawford Industries to the ground before either of you get to touch it.
00:54:04Adrian, be reasonable.
00:54:07She is worth a thousand of you.
00:54:09Tomorrow, 9 a.m.
00:54:12Vivian starts.
00:54:14No discussion.
00:54:14Is that all?
00:54:18Yes, for now.
00:54:20But don't disappoint me again.
00:54:37You love you.
00:54:39Stop it.
00:54:58Stop checking.
00:55:01This is ridiculous.
00:55:04I was independent before.
00:55:05I don't need a man to make me breakfast in bed and to hold me whilst I sleep.
00:55:13No!
00:55:14I'm not going to be that girl.
00:55:19I can make my own meals.
00:55:22I don't need his perfectly prepared little plates or his nutritional spreadsheets.
00:55:30A boot marrow.
00:55:31Way to get back at Ethan.
00:55:40Philo!
00:55:42I'm fine!
00:55:43You're not fine.
00:55:44Hospital, now!
00:55:45I'm fine!
00:55:46I'm fine!
00:56:00Thanks.
00:56:01I know we've had our differences, but I really appreciated you today.
00:56:08You know, you used to look at me like that.
00:56:13All sweet.
00:56:14Sincere.
00:56:15Don't.
00:56:16Why not?
00:56:18Is there really no chance for us?
00:56:20Ethan.
00:56:23Lila, he's just using you.
00:56:26You're his revenge against me.
00:56:28A tool.
00:56:28And you deserve better than that.
00:56:33Adrian, stop!
00:56:35What are you doing?
00:56:37I'm protecting you.
00:56:38From what?
00:56:39He's helping.
00:56:40He brought me here.
00:56:40My hand was bleeding.
00:56:41So now you're defending him?
00:56:43No, I'm defending the truth.
00:56:45Sometimes, I guess people surprise you.
00:56:49I see.
00:56:52Adrian.
00:56:52Adrian.
00:56:52I'll call the doctor to come.
00:56:55I want a full blood panel, fetal monitoring, bring the OB-GYN down immediately.
00:57:04Sir, it's just a minor car.
00:57:06I want a full prenatal checkup.
00:57:08I've already spoken to Dr. Anderson.
00:57:09He's going to be down here in 10 minutes.
00:57:12Always so controlled.
00:57:14Aren't you, Uncle?
00:57:16Some of us actually know how to make Lila happy.
00:57:21Remember our beach dates?
00:57:22How you said I was the most fun you ever had?
00:57:31Thompson, bring in the catering.
00:57:34The Michelin star one.
00:57:35Lila says she's got a hankering for Australian Wagyu beef.
00:57:39Oh, well done.
00:57:40No sauce.
00:57:41I don't think that I did say...
00:57:43How about when we watched your favorite movie?
00:57:47Pride and Prejudice.
00:57:48BBC adaptation, 1995.
00:57:50She likes to watch it when she's still in stress.
00:57:53Which is why I upgraded our home theater system.
00:57:56To have all the original films from the BBC archive.
00:57:59You did what?
00:58:00Wow!
00:58:04Using money to get to her heart.
00:58:06Huh, Uncle?
00:58:07Oh, the Alzheimer's wing is fully renovated.
00:58:14Named after Lila's grandmother.
00:58:16As she mentioned.
00:58:17Oh, it's a fully funded.
00:58:20Anonymous donor.
00:58:26He may be able to offer you money,
00:58:28but you're going to miss this.
00:58:37Is this normal rich people behavior?
00:58:46Just my mouth.
00:58:49I've already ordered the prenatal vitamins.
00:58:51They should arrive shortly.
00:58:53They're custom formulated to her blood and genetic profile.
00:58:56Wow.
00:58:57He remembered all that about me.
00:58:59I remember everything about you.
00:59:00Maybe you should come back when there's less testosterone in the air.
00:59:10Guys, she's tired.
00:59:12We should leave.
00:59:12Let her rest.
00:59:22Is this just another competition, Ethan?
00:59:25Or does he actually care?
00:59:27Yes, father?
00:59:46Vivian's been hospitalized.
00:59:48Overwork, they say,
00:59:49from cleaning up your company's mess.
00:59:52I have meetings.
00:59:53Cancel them!
00:59:55Go to visit her right now!
00:59:57Either you show proper respect to the woman I chose for you,
01:00:01or else I will have to call an emergency board meeting!
01:00:21You came.
01:00:22Let's skip the performance, Vivian.
01:00:29Still so cold.
01:00:32Don't you remember when you used to bring me soup when I was unwell?
01:00:35That was a long time ago.
01:00:38We were really great together, Adrian.
01:00:41We could be together again.
01:00:42I don't know what game you're playing at, but it won't work.
01:00:45What we had, I never took it as seriously as you pretended to.
01:00:51But Lila, she's different.
01:00:54She's real.
01:00:56Pregnant gold digger is real?
01:00:58Please.
01:00:59I guess some things never change.
01:01:11Watch your words.
01:01:14Stay away from my wife.
01:01:16A little girl.
01:01:27Daddy.
01:01:28No.
01:01:30Your hand.
01:01:31It's nothing.
01:01:34I need to tell you something.
01:01:37I'm gonna be a mother.
01:01:40Is it that Ethan boys?
01:01:41No.
01:01:42No.
01:01:42Then who?
01:01:43It doesn't matter.
01:01:45But what does matter is that this is my baby.
01:01:49And I'm gonna love them so much.
01:01:52With all the love that you gave me.
01:01:56Baby.
01:01:58I'm so sorry.
01:01:59I'm sorry I couldn't give you better.
01:02:04Daddy.
01:02:04If only I were healthy, if I could work.
01:02:07Daddy, don't.
01:02:08But the hospital bills, what are you getting money for?
01:02:14Don't tell me you sold yourself to some men.
01:02:17No, no.
01:02:17It's not like that.
01:02:19Did someone take advantage of you?
01:02:21My little girl pregnant all alone?
01:02:24She's not alone.
01:02:29Hi, Mr. Reid.
01:02:30I'm Adrian Crawford.
01:02:31I'm the father of her child.
01:02:37Adrian.
01:02:39I'm not just the father.
01:02:41I'm the man who's gonna spend the rest of his life
01:02:43making sure your daughter and our child
01:02:44get everything they deserve.
01:02:46Pretty words from the rich man.
01:02:49Not words.
01:02:50Facts.
01:02:51I've already arranged a transfer to a private medical facility.
01:02:54Full treatment plan.
01:02:55Best specialists.
01:02:57Adrian.
01:02:57And I promise you this.
01:03:01Every morning, she's gonna wake up
01:03:03knowing that she is cherished.
01:03:05Every decision I make, every step I take
01:03:07will be to ensure her happiness.
01:03:10You really mean that, don't you?
01:03:12Yes, sir, I do.
01:03:14Well.
01:03:17Maybe I can stop worrying.
01:03:20I know.
01:03:27Thank you for what you said in there.
01:03:31I know you were just trying to make my father feel better.
01:03:34No, no, no, no.
01:03:35I wasn't just doing anything.
01:03:37Every word I said in there is true.
01:03:40Adrian.
01:03:46Laila, I need to tell you something.
01:03:49I've been falling for you ever since you crashed into my office
01:03:52with that ridiculous donor questionnaire.
01:03:54Yes, we had a contract, but
01:03:56I realized
01:03:58you've become everything to me.
01:04:02You're not my surrogate.
01:04:05You're not my convenient fiancée.
01:04:09You're my partner.
01:04:12If you have me.
01:04:16But what about
01:04:17Ethan, Vivian?
01:04:19What about them?
01:04:19Aren't you trying to just get revenge on Ethan and...
01:04:26Revenge?
01:04:27I never loved Vivian.
01:04:29And Ethan, he's not worth a second thought.
01:04:31Really?
01:04:33Then who was the guy I saw competing with Ethan?
01:04:38That was...
01:04:41I was jealous, okay?
01:04:47I thought of you with him.
01:04:50Wow.
01:04:51The great Mr. Crawford.
01:04:53Jealous.
01:04:54Don't mention it.
01:04:55I have a reputation to maintain.
01:04:56Hmm.
01:05:10I'm not letting you go.
01:05:13Not ever.
01:05:14Surrogacy?
01:05:24Contract marriage?
01:05:26Oh, this is too perfect.
01:05:37Oh, my God.
01:05:38Whiskey. Neat.
01:06:06What's so urgent?
01:06:08I know something about your little ex-girlfriend that might interest you.
01:06:12Is this about her and my uncle?
01:06:14It's about how she really got pregnant.
01:06:17Your perfect uncle?
01:06:19He hired her.
01:06:21She's just a surrogate.
01:06:23Their whole engagement is a lie.
01:06:26A contract.
01:06:30The board would love to hear about this.
01:06:34Next week's family meeting.
01:06:36He'll reveal everything.
01:06:38Until then, let's gather more evidence.
01:06:42And once he's ruined...
01:06:45I'll comfort him.
01:06:46Help him rebuild.
01:06:48He'll remember who he truly belongs with.
01:06:50And Lila?
01:06:56Well, once the truth's out, she'll be worthless to him.
01:07:00You can have your little toy back.
01:07:04Cheers.
01:07:05Ethan's in meetings all afternoon.
01:07:24That's okay.
01:07:25I don't mind waiting.
01:07:26These documents require his immediate attention.
01:07:34Would you mind getting me some tea, dear?
01:07:42Sorry to see agreements.
01:07:44Actual contracts.
01:07:46Come on.
01:07:49The train's already so organized.
01:07:52It's almost everything.
01:08:01It's just a stupid cat.
01:08:02Are you okay?
01:08:16You're a beast!
01:08:18Attempt me!
01:08:20I need your bathroom.
01:08:22Now!
01:08:22Atrienne!
01:08:32I've been waiting for you.
01:08:33You know, if you need an heir, we could make one.
01:08:47Right here.
01:08:49Right now.
01:08:52Lila doesn't have to know.
01:08:54She's already asleep.
01:08:57It could just be our little secret.
01:09:02Peter.
01:09:02In the living room.
01:09:07Wherever you want.
01:09:09Someone might see us.
01:09:11Are you scared?
01:09:16I know somewhere more...
01:09:18private.
01:09:26Where are we going?
01:09:28Can't risk being interrupted, can we?
01:09:30Ladies first.
01:09:32Ladies first.
01:09:37Enjoy the fresh air.
01:09:39Adrian!
01:09:40Adrian!
01:09:41You can't do this to me!
01:09:43I'm a Crawford executor!
01:09:44Stop filming me!
01:09:45This is harassment!
01:09:52I will sue you!
01:09:54I will sue you so hard!
01:09:55Adrian!
01:09:55Adrian!
01:09:56Adrian!
01:09:57Adrian!
01:09:58Adrian!
01:09:59Let me in!
01:10:00Adrian!
01:10:00Adrian!
01:10:01Adrian!
01:10:01Let me in!
01:10:09Everyone!
01:10:10This crisis could have destroyed us.
01:10:14But thanks to your tireless efforts, Crawford is stronger than ever!
01:10:18To the best team in the business!
01:10:20To the best team in the business!
01:10:21To the best team in the business!
01:10:25Though, speaking of tonight's celebration, there's something you all should be prepared for.
01:10:31For what?
01:10:33My uncle is bringing his fiancée tonight.
01:10:38The thing is, her and I were together until very recently.
01:10:43I know, I know, I know, but please, when they arrive, act normal.
01:10:52I couldn't bear any drama.
01:10:54She left you for your uncle!
01:10:57These things happen.
01:10:59Everyone!
01:11:00I'd like to introduce you to my fiancée, Lila Reed.
01:11:06Hello everybody, it's lovely to meet you all.
01:11:09I need to check some numbers.
01:11:11Did I do something wrong?
01:11:16How are you feeling?
01:11:26Is the morning sickness over yet?
01:11:28I'm fine.
01:11:29You know, I've been worried.
01:11:33All this stress can't be good for the baby.
01:11:37Which hospital are you using?
01:11:39I could drive you next time.
01:11:41That's not necessary.
01:11:43Come on.
01:11:45We used to tell each other everything.
01:11:48Just want to make sure you're getting the proper care.
01:11:51If I know her hospital, then I can get her surrogate history.
01:11:55How thoughtful.
01:11:56But Adrian handles all my appointments personally.
01:12:00The real hero of the hour!
01:12:02Wow!
01:12:08Beautiful, isn't she?
01:12:10The type of woman who belongs in Adrian's world.
01:12:14Excuse me.
01:12:15You know how my uncle thinks.
01:12:19Like a chess master.
01:12:21Every piece has its use.
01:12:24Some for business.
01:12:26Others for...
01:12:27You don't know him.
01:12:29Oh, but I do.
01:12:31Adrian Crawford cares exactly about one person.
01:12:35Adrian Crawford.
01:12:37He sees people as investments.
01:12:39Vivian?
01:12:40Perfect for managing the company.
01:12:43You?
01:12:44Well...
01:12:45I think we both know what your role is.
01:12:51He's wrong.
01:12:52He has to be wrong.
01:12:53Everyone in this world has their place.
01:13:11Their...
01:13:12Purpose.
01:13:13Maybe it's time I found mine again.
01:13:14Maybe it's time I found mine again.
01:13:18Maybe it's time I found mine again.
01:13:19Maybe when's the last time you ate something?
01:13:25I don't know.
01:13:26Breakfast.
01:13:27Yesterday's breakfast.
01:13:28That's enough for today.
01:13:29Okay.
01:13:30The prenatal instruction.
01:13:31No, I don't know.
01:13:32No.
01:13:33No.
01:13:34No.
01:13:35No.
01:13:36It's time I found mine again.
01:13:37No.
01:13:38No.
01:13:39No.
01:13:40No.
01:13:41No.
01:13:42No.
01:13:43No.
01:13:44No.
01:13:45No.
01:13:46No.
01:13:47No.
01:13:48No.
01:13:49No.
01:13:50No.
01:13:51No.
01:13:52No.
01:13:53No.
01:13:54No.
01:13:55No.
01:13:56No.
01:13:57No.
01:13:58No.
01:13:59The prenatal instructor said this exercise should help.
01:14:02Okay, like this?
01:14:04Uh, almost.
01:14:15Um, I think I need a little more instruction.
01:14:29Everything looks perfect.
01:14:44The baby's development's right on track.
01:14:47Really?
01:14:49Really.
01:14:50Now that you're in the stable period,
01:14:53intimate relations is perfectly safe,
01:14:55as long as you're gentle.
01:14:57Just listen to your bodies and...
01:15:00Yes, uh, thank you, doctor.
01:15:07Everything will be open.
01:15:20Dr. Anderson?
01:15:26Let's talk about Adrian Crawford's arrangement.
01:15:34Was it a surrogacy contract?
01:15:39Mr. Harrington.
01:15:41Dr. Patient Confidentiality.
01:15:43Hmm, I hear that the new hospital complex
01:15:48is looking for department heads.
01:15:51Wouldn't it be a shame
01:15:53if your name was
01:15:54mysteriously removed from the list?
01:16:01Now, about those hospital records.
01:16:05Surrogacy.
01:16:18Oh, my God.
01:16:24Oh, my God.
01:16:27Surrogacy.
01:16:33Surrogacy.
01:16:35Five generations of Crawford dignity
01:16:37destroyed by tabloid gossip.
01:16:42I knew that girl was hiding something.
01:16:47Did you?
01:16:48Did you really pay some nobody
01:16:50to carry your heir?
01:16:52Tell me it isn't true.
01:16:55You...
01:17:03It's your doing.
01:17:06I...
01:17:07Adrian!
01:17:10I need to discuss something with you.
01:17:12Privately.
01:17:19Adrian.
01:17:19I can make all of this disappear.
01:17:22All you have to do is remember
01:17:24who you really belong with.
01:17:26Who I belong with.
01:17:27We were good together.
01:17:28We can't be again.
01:17:30Give me the position I deserve.
01:17:33As Mrs. Crawford by your side.
01:17:37I do need your help.
01:17:38Please,
01:17:39never show up again.
01:17:41I do.
01:17:49I won't let them hurt you.
01:18:00It's not me I'm worried about.
01:18:03If they expose the truth
01:18:04about our arrangement,
01:18:05you could lose everything.
01:18:09Nothing's more important
01:18:10than you and our child.
01:18:11This emergency family meeting
01:18:35will come to order.
01:18:36I have proof.
01:18:39Miss Reed
01:18:40is not Adrian's loving bride-to-be.
01:18:44She's just a surrogate
01:18:46paid to carry the Crawford heir.
01:18:53I have proof too.
01:18:55Medical records from Crawford.
01:19:04Crawford.
01:19:05The medical center.
01:19:24Showing that Miss Reed
01:19:25underwent
01:19:29for two
01:19:48treatments.
01:19:52And
01:19:53for which she was
01:20:00generously
01:20:01compensated.
01:20:07Paid surrogacy.
01:20:09How common?
01:20:09I find you want the truth?
01:20:23Yes.
01:20:24It started with a surrogacy.
01:20:27But Lilo,
01:20:28she's the woman I chose
01:20:29to be the mother of my child.
01:20:31And I won't let anyone here
01:20:33slander her.
01:20:35You want this arrangement?
01:20:36Fine.
01:20:39But then,
01:20:40it costs you
01:20:41everything.
01:20:50Resign from the company,
01:20:53give up your inheritance.
01:20:55The child can see
01:20:56in the family.
01:20:57Of course.
01:20:58But the mother,
01:20:59well,
01:21:00her services won't be required
01:21:01after delivery.
01:21:09Yes.
01:21:11I did the IVF treatment.
01:21:13But I never,
01:21:14never
01:21:15saw this baby
01:21:16as a business transaction.
01:21:17You know what?
01:21:22You can say
01:21:23whatever you want
01:21:24about me.
01:21:25But don't you dare
01:21:26question my love
01:21:28for this child.
01:21:30Don't you dare.
01:21:32Don't you dare.
01:21:33Enough!
01:21:35Enough!
01:21:46Enough!
01:22:05I'm willing to give up everything, the company, the inheritance, all of it, but I won't give
01:22:20up her, she's my wife, the only one that I will ever want, we're getting married, properly,
01:22:30fine, you want to throw away everything for this, for this woman, then you will get nothing
01:22:50from this family, nothing, sign it, renounce your inheritance, all of it,
01:23:00no, no, no, no, Adrian, stop, I'm not worth losing everything for, you're worth
01:23:06everything, the company, the assets, I built that once, I can build them again, but you,
