Hear My Love Again
Transcript
00:00:00Can you believe they sent a deaf stylist?
00:00:09Who do they think are going to be wearing these haute couture designer pieces today?
00:00:13There is Mr. Congressman Marcus Flakeson.
00:00:34He's so handsome.
00:00:39Congressman Marcus is California's youngest and most promising political star.
00:00:44OMG, imagine dating someone that hot.
00:00:46Good morning.
00:00:47Ding Dong.
00:00:48His wife's like roaches, roaches daddy.
00:00:52My friend Tommy said he adores his wife so much.
00:00:55He never brings her to any public events to protect her from the media.
00:01:00Has anyone ever actually seen his wife?
00:01:09I'm just a mother.
00:01:19I'm just a mother.
00:01:24I'm just a mother.
00:01:31Okay.
00:01:32Go home.
00:01:37We're married, but I'm just a pawn in his quest for power.
00:01:56In his grand narrative I am nothing but the shadow to his shining star.
00:02:02Where are secretaries are in Washington?
00:02:06We'll not kill you.
00:02:09No name driven by the dog who پťast is from the jail undíkenyke station.
00:02:16Oh that's right.
00:02:17Go home.
00:02:18What should you like to talk to the viol Rose gospel?
00:02:22Good night.
00:02:23I don't like to go.
00:02:24You walk to Paris man.
00:02:26I won't let you go.
00:02:29I can hear.
00:02:50How can I...
00:02:53How can I hear?
00:02:54No security for a politician's wife.
00:03:00Dealing you was almost too easy.
00:03:03I'm kidnapped?
00:03:04Call your husband.
00:03:06Now!
00:03:09That's right. You're deaf.
00:03:11Right, don't laugh.
00:03:15Go on.
00:03:16Marcus?
00:03:23Marcus, please be...
00:03:25Please pick up the phone.
00:03:27Of course.
00:03:28You've gotten rid of it.
00:03:29Of course. Absolutely.
00:03:40Hello?
00:03:42Hello?
00:03:43I have your wife.
00:03:45You're going to do exactly as I say, or I'm going to kill her.
00:04:07Hello?
00:04:08I have your wife.
00:04:09And if you don't do exactly what I say...
00:04:13I'm going to kill her.
00:04:14I don't have time for these games.
00:04:16Congressman Marcus!
00:04:17I truly cannot believe that you don't care about your wife's life.
00:04:21And I'm telling you, I get three or four of these scams a week, so why don't you go kick rocks?
00:04:25I'll tell you one more time.
00:04:27She's my hostage.
00:04:28Well, then call me when she's a corpse.
00:04:32Whew!
00:04:33That man is fucking cruel, you know that?
00:04:37Heartless politicians.
00:04:39You know, if he doesn't care about whether or not you die, I guess it's my choice.
00:04:45And believe me, you're beautiful.
00:04:48It's a shame you're not going to know what you're dying for.
00:04:53Marcus, you motherfucker!
00:04:55You motherfucker!
00:05:19Tom?
00:05:20Tom, I keep getting scam calls to my phone.
00:05:24I need you to check out the origin of the number.
00:05:26I've already checked this number a hundred times.
00:05:28I understand, but we need to make sure that my wife is safe.
00:05:31Copy that.
00:05:32Also, if you could just let Mr. Versace know I'll be right with him.
00:05:35I'll be right with him.
00:05:51What are you doing?
00:05:52No.
00:05:53Alcohol.
00:05:54Are you kidding me?
00:05:55Give me that.
00:05:56What is with the attitude?
00:05:58Hello?
00:05:59Mr. Flick, huh?
00:06:00The call had an anti-spinence measure and it was too brief to trace.
00:06:01What is with the attitude?
00:06:02What is with the attitude?
00:06:03Hello?
00:06:04Mr. Flick, huh?
00:06:05Mr. Flick, huh?
00:06:06The call had an anti-spinence measure and it was too brief to trace.
00:06:10They also used a voice changer, so voice analyst is out.
00:06:11These people have no idea who they're dealing with.
00:06:12They really think that my wife is my weakness.
00:06:13Ridiculous.
00:06:14I guess I cannot believe that the first thing I hear in three years is that you wanted me to do.
00:06:15What is with the attitude?
00:06:16What is with the attitude?
00:06:17What is with the attitude?
00:06:18Hello?
00:06:19Mr. Flick, huh?
00:06:20The call had an anti-spinence measure and it was too brief to trace.
00:06:21They also used a voice changer, so voice analyst is out.
00:06:22These people have no idea who they're dealing with.
00:06:23They really think that my wife is my weakness.
00:06:26Ridiculous.
00:06:27I guess I cannot believe that the first thing I hear in three years is that you wanted me to do.
00:06:40I guess I cannot believe that the first thing I hear in three years is that you wanted me dead.
00:06:46Tom, I need you to set up a security detail for Ariel.
00:06:50And absolutely under no circumstance does she find out.
00:06:53Just make sure it doesn't interfere with her life or work.
00:06:55Understood?
00:07:10I've rigged this phone against tracking.
00:07:21Your husband can't trace it.
00:07:23Marcus marrying you three years ago for my sister was the biggest mistake of my life.
00:07:28Now that I have my hearing back, I'm gonna make sure everything gets back on track.
00:07:33Marcus, you're not supposed to see me before the wedding.
00:07:45Take the dress off.
00:07:47Really?
00:07:48This is what you want?
00:07:49To be the wife of a politician?
00:07:51It's just like the dress, it's not even yours.
00:07:54Do I have a choice?
00:07:56Let's get things straight.
00:07:57I need to marry Rochester in order to secure my run for the house.
00:08:00Your sister runs off.
00:08:02So now, you get to be the replacement.
00:08:08So, I'm really just a replacement to you?
00:08:30Yeah.
00:08:31Yeah, you are.
00:08:37Okay, let's establish a couple ground rules.
00:08:39One, I'm technically gonna be married to Claire, so we have to conceal your identity.
00:08:44Two, you're not making any public appearances.
00:08:47And three, during our marriage, there are no children whatsoever.
00:08:52Okay?
00:08:53Are you listening?
00:08:55Why are you doing this to me?
00:08:56Because people like us are not afforded the choice.
00:09:02Perra.
00:09:03Irra, are you okay?
00:09:25How?
00:09:27.
00:09:28.
00:09:32Has Ariel recovered any of her hearing since that sudden deafness at the wedding?
00:09:51It's not so bad being deaf, Mrs. Flick.
00:09:54It spares Ariel from hearing anything that might damage Marcus' campaign for governor.
00:09:58Exactly.
00:09:59And when Marcus becomes governor, we might consider cosmetic surgery for Ariel.
00:10:05Make her look more like her sister.
00:10:07I'm sure the public will sympathize with Marcus that he has not abandoned his disabled wife.
00:10:13You're so wise, Mr. Flick. That's a brilliant strategy.
00:10:17You all seem more concerned about politics than the well-being of my wife.
00:10:22You really think it's appropriate gloating over her condition?
00:10:25I was just considering your career.
00:10:27While we're on the topic, as long as I'm married to Ariel, we're not going to be doing any reconstructive surgery to make her look like her sister.
00:10:33I'm not going to allow it.
00:10:35Why is he defending me now?
00:10:38On that note, we're going to be taking our leave.
00:10:57Stop!
00:11:08I'm visiting wildfire victims tomorrow, and I need your help picking an outfit.
00:11:19Remember, nothing too high profile.
00:11:21Oh, my goodness.
00:11:32Hey, not bad.
00:11:37Marcus.
00:11:38It's a good thing you couldn't hear what my parents said about you.
00:11:49I want to thank you all for making the time to be here today.
00:11:52I think that's a big deal.
00:11:54Divorce your wife, Ariel, Rochester, within a month, or your scandal goes public.
00:12:24Our state goes through a lot of disasters, mudslides, we deal with droughts, we deal with wildfires.
00:12:43In my understanding, over the last 40 years, a lot of things have built up to this moment.
00:12:50A lot of things that are perceived to bring us to...
00:12:53Just one moment, yes.
00:13:03Who's this?
00:13:04Divorce your wife, Ariel, at Rochester, within a month.
00:13:06Or your scandal goes public.
00:13:07I don't think you've done your homework.
00:13:11My wife's name is Claire.
00:13:13No, Claire's the older sister.
00:13:15When she ran away three years ago, you married Ariel to save your political career.
00:13:19What would your supporters think if they knew that you're a liar?
00:13:23And a hypocrite?
00:13:37What would your supporters think if they knew that you're a liar?
00:13:45And a hypocrite?
00:13:46Swapping wives between two sisters?
00:13:48I don't know my wife's name is Ariel.
00:13:51Tell me who the hell this is.
00:13:53Doesn't matter who I am.
00:13:54Divorce your wife and...
00:13:55Your secrets disappear with me.
00:13:57I mean, after all, she's just a substitute.
00:13:59And you hate her.
00:14:00So, it shouldn't really be a problem.
00:14:02There's no chance I'm divorcing Ariel.
00:14:04I don't even think about it.
00:14:05I'll give you a month, or...
00:14:08I'll kill her.
00:14:13Kill her.
00:14:16It must be because Marcus is running for governor.
00:14:19So, now he doesn't want to divorce me.
00:14:23Now I need a new plan.
00:14:35Mr. Flick, you're about to be on camera.
00:14:47And the press will definitely make a big deal of that wound.
00:14:51Tom, I want you to get me the best computer engineers in the world.
00:14:54We're going to nail the bastards threatening Ariel.
00:14:55Copy that, sir.
00:14:58Also, I need you to make it a top priority that it'll be fine a fashion consultant.
00:15:03An awesome fashion editor.
00:15:05I want someone who understands political messaging.
00:15:11Hi, Johnny.
00:15:12There are some things that can only be appreciated once they're gone, you know?
00:15:27I mean, I've lived the past three years of my life in a silent hell, and now life has given me a second chance to hear again.
00:15:35This time, I'm going to live for myself.
00:15:40I'm going to live for myself.
00:15:42Johnny, you're my guardian angel, you know that, right?
00:16:05I mean, I know that when Mom married into the Rochester family, they wouldn't accept you because of your differences.
00:16:15But I need you to know that I would never give up on you.
00:16:21Ever.
00:16:24Okay?
00:16:24We'll see you next time.
00:16:46Bye.
00:16:47Bye.
00:16:48Bye.
00:16:49Bye.
00:16:50Bye.
00:16:51Bye.
00:16:52Dr. Park, is it possible to regain hearing in a case like my wife's?
00:17:14Is it treatable with surgery?
00:17:15Her sudden deafness was triggered by a severe shock.
00:17:18We can attempt surgery, but I must be honest, the chances of success are very slim.
00:17:25If it works, it would be absolutely close to a miracle.
00:17:29It's just something that doesn't happen very often.
00:17:32I'm so sorry.
00:17:34I know it's not the news you wanted to hear.
00:17:39We're doing everything we can, okay?
00:17:41Okay.
00:17:43There we go.
00:17:48Learn to please your husband and have a baby ASAP.
00:17:53No problem.
00:17:54I don't know.
00:17:55Let's go.
00:17:55Let's go.
00:17:57Let's go.
00:17:57Let's go.
00:17:59It's time to follow.
00:17:59Let's go.
00:17:59Let's go.
00:18:01Let's go.
00:18:16Let's go.
00:18:18Tom,
00:18:46The man just sent me a few photos.
00:18:48I need you to trace them.
00:18:49Yes, sir.
00:18:50Keep them on the line for more than five minutes for better tracking.
00:19:05Did you see that?
00:19:06It's a central photo of your wife that she sent to someone else.
00:19:09She's cheating on you.
00:19:11My wife wouldn't cheat on me.
00:19:15Why? You don't think she's attractive enough?
00:19:40No, I think she's quite attractive, actually.
00:19:43I just know her.
00:19:46And she wouldn't betray her promises.
00:19:48You know, those photos you sent?
00:19:50The faces are unrecognizable.
00:19:52How are you so confident?
00:19:53That they're my wife.
00:19:54Didn't you just boast about knowing your wife so well?
00:19:57Ariel has a birthmark on her chest.
00:19:58Surely you're familiar with it.
00:20:00How do you know about the birthmark?
00:20:01Who are you?
00:20:03It doesn't matter who I am.
00:20:04Here are my demands.
00:20:05Divorce your wife or this provocative photo goes public.
00:20:08I'll claim that the perfect congressman can't satisfy his wife.
00:20:12Leaving her to find happiness elsewhere.
00:20:15What do you gain if I divorce my wife?
00:20:17What do you gain if I divorce my wife?
00:20:39Damn, I hadn't thought of that.
00:20:41I hate her.
00:20:42I can't stand seeing her live such a privileged life.
00:20:45Well, I'm not going to indulge your twisted desires.
00:20:48She's my wife and I'm going to protect her.
00:20:50Don't act like you really love her.
00:20:51You're just worried that a divorce would hurt your political image.
00:20:54You think you know her so well?
00:20:57If you love someone, you don't trap them in a political sham marriage, you hypocrite.
00:21:03Hello?
00:21:04Hello?
00:21:06This man is too complicated to understand.
00:21:14Now, sir, we've hit a snag with the anti-surveillance software.
00:21:18You know, it's only been traced in the general area.
00:21:21Okay, go ahead.
00:21:22Your phone's location is within a five-mile radius, which includes your house, sir.
00:21:49Ariel.
00:21:50She's in danger.
00:21:52She's in danger.
00:22:14She's in danger.
00:22:15Are you mad at me?
00:22:43Ariel.
00:22:44Okay, I'll touch you.
00:23:14We require a candidate who grasps the significant impact of clothing on political image making
00:23:27and understands how each garment can tell a compelling story.
00:23:32Mom!
00:23:33What are you doing?
00:23:34That's my work.
00:23:35Instead of focusing on this garbage, why don't you learn how to dress nicely so you can catch
00:23:48a good man like your sister did?
00:23:51Mom, clothing isn't just a tool for attracting men.
00:23:54I can't believe you just said that.
00:23:56Ariel, you are going to stop chasing these fanciful dreams.
00:23:59Do you remember where you came from?
00:24:02With my marriage into the Rochester family, you wouldn't even have the money to attend
00:24:06a private school and focus on this nonsense.
00:24:09If you don't want to end up poor again, listen to me.
00:24:13Focus your efforts on finding a wealthy husband, just like I did.
00:24:20a little bit more.
00:24:21Well, the worst they could say is now.
00:24:35As long as this brings me closer to my dream of being a designer, I'm ready to work for
00:24:48anyone.
00:24:49I can't let anybody, especially him, find out I can hear again.
00:24:54I have to stay silent in public and avoid reacting too quickly.
00:24:59Maybe using text to speech is the best.
00:25:02My name is Ariel Anderson.
00:25:31I graduated from a school of visual art with a degree in fashion design.
00:25:34I lost my hearing due to an accident three years ago.
00:25:37Unfortunately, a hearing aid won't really help.
00:25:39Therefore, I'm appreciative of you to use pen and paper for communication.
00:25:42I assure you I can keep up.
00:25:44I'm concerned that our hearing might affect your performance.
00:25:47Recruiting a disabled woman will make our campaign team look more diverse and socially responsible.
00:25:53The board has been better than us.
00:25:54I hear both of your concerns, however.
00:25:57But the reality is we only need a wardrobe consultant that's qualified.
00:26:02The congressman needs to attend an unscheduled event.
00:26:06Please adjust the suit accordingly.
00:26:29Please adjust the suit accordingly.
00:26:31Is she modifying it just by eye?
00:26:46Congresswoman Flick, may I ask you to try it on?
00:27:00Five feet, nine inches tall, 165 pounds.
00:27:18Chest, 33.6 inches.
00:27:20Weights, 32.9 inches.
00:27:21Hips, 35.7 inches.
00:27:23These are the congressman's measurements, and I'm confident that they're accurate.
00:27:26That's entirely correct.
00:27:29True.
00:27:31But I need a wardrobe consultant, not a tailor.
00:27:34But I need a wardrobe consultant, not a tailor.
00:27:55Sorry, congressman, I can't hear.
00:28:03I want you to take a look at these photos.
00:28:05Tell us five things that you see wrong with them.
00:28:07The tie is too flashy, the pants are too short, and overall, the photo screams one word.
00:28:21Arrogance.
00:28:24She is incredible.
00:28:28She's the one.
00:28:29I was supposed to be divorcing him, but now I guess I'm working with him.
00:28:50Hi, I'm Daniel Campbell.
00:28:59It's good to meet you.
00:29:00I'm so happy to have you on the team.
00:29:03You're great.
00:29:04Would you like to get a coffee?
00:29:07Sure.
00:29:08Yeah?
00:29:08Yeah.
00:29:20Who is that guy?
00:29:33Can we fire that guy?
00:29:34What?
00:29:35No, that's inappropriate.
00:29:36We can't fire people for no good reason.
00:29:38No, that'll go against our team's reputation.
00:29:40Also, not to mention the upcoming campaign.
00:29:43Well, then keep a close eye on him, okay?
00:29:45That's not part of my job.
00:29:46So, um, what happened here?
00:29:53Sorry.
00:29:58Accident.
00:30:04I don't know.
00:30:06Why don't you get, um, cochlear implants?
00:30:08Cochlear implants for your ear?
00:30:11Too robotic?
00:30:14Interesting.
00:30:15The, uh, silence.
00:30:19House.
00:30:21You need work?
00:30:23Cool.
00:30:31I need work, Campbell.
00:30:33It's my lunch break, Mr. Flick.
00:30:35Right.
00:30:35Well, then, you think my new wardrobe consultant needs to check on her duties?
00:30:40No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:30:41No, no, no, no, no.
00:31:11Ring.
00:31:24Didn't you insist that we hide the fact that we're married, so why would I bother wearing a ring?
00:31:30Someone hitting on you.
00:31:35Maybe you haven't noticed, but I'm a human too. I have a life.
00:31:41Oh my God. Oh my God, it's you in the photo.
00:31:48Fucking asshole.
00:31:51Ariel, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
00:31:54I'm sorry.
00:32:06No, Ariel.
00:32:11Don't forget, I'm still paying your brother's medical bills.
00:32:21Marcus, I cannot believe you'd threaten me with my own brother.
00:32:45What happened to you? What happened to us?
00:32:54The more successful he becomes, the more he feels like a stranger.
00:32:59He's nothing like the Marcus I've known since I was 16.
00:33:02Don't worry, just hold on tight, and I'll always protect you.
00:33:19Marcus, how come you're always free to visit Johnny with me?
00:33:22Um, well, uh, your brother's my brother.
00:33:28When I get older, I'm going to protect you, okay?
00:33:33I promise.
00:33:33I promise.
00:33:52I promise you.
00:34:11I love you.
00:34:12I'm going to say goodbye.
00:34:15Stay.
00:34:20Congressman Flick.
00:34:23Forgive me for asking, but why have I never been introduced to your wife?
00:34:27Your competitors bring their spouses to events like this, and they do quite well for themselves.
00:34:32Right. But I don't consider my wife to be an accessory.
00:34:35She's her own person. And I don't need her chained to me at all times.
00:34:40You are the perfect husband.
00:34:43Pleasure.
00:34:45You again.
00:34:56Don't know how to quit, huh?
00:34:58Have you made up your mind?
00:34:59Are you divorcing your wife or not?
00:35:01Threats, huh? Go ahead.
00:35:02You're just going to want to regret this.
00:35:04I don't understand you.
00:35:05You say you love your wife and you want her to live a life that she chooses.
00:35:09And then you turn around and you treat her like a prop.
00:35:11You make me sick.
00:35:13How did you hear about this?
00:35:16Are you at the gala?
00:35:17Have you ever asked her what kind of life she would like to live?
00:35:20Have you even asked her if she loves you?
00:35:22I swear to God, if you do anything, Ariel, I will kill you.
00:35:25I will make you regret it.
00:35:27Ariel!
00:35:28Ariel!
00:35:29Can you hear me?
00:35:30Have you recovered your hearing?
00:35:31Stop!
00:35:32Why did you turn around when I just called your name?
00:35:36Have you been on the phone?
00:35:37Oh my God.
00:35:38oh my God.
00:35:40Yes!
00:35:41You get me on the phone.
00:35:42No.
00:35:43Stop!
00:35:44I trust your wife.
00:35:45I just amiss with you.
00:35:46You're a girl.
00:35:47I trust her ever.
00:35:48I trust her son.
00:35:49You are not a copious man.
00:35:50Where did you find me?
00:35:51You're a copious man.
00:35:52You just don't know who's happened to me.
00:35:53You have to be a copious man, you're a copious man.
00:35:54And here's a copious man.
00:35:57Yeah!
00:35:58That's a copious man.
00:35:59I've got to be in his bedroom and I've got to be a copious man.
00:36:07Gas leak!
00:36:37On the porch, she seemed to be on the phone.
00:36:46Was it her all along?
00:36:48Water.
00:37:02Why?
00:37:07It's not her.
00:37:25Explain!
00:37:30Just friends.
00:37:31Friends?
00:37:33I'm going to bed.
00:37:35Here we go.
00:37:40I'm jealous.
00:37:41Okay, I'm sorry.
00:37:42I'm jealous.
00:37:43I'm jealous of what you and Daniel have.
00:38:05Thank you for coming.
00:38:07Please take me.
00:38:08I'm sorry.
00:38:11You are not even here.
00:38:13Yes, no, yes.
00:38:15What?
00:38:16I'm exhausted.
00:38:18I'm exhausted.
00:38:20I'm exhausted.
00:38:21I'm exhausted.
00:38:22I'm exhausted.
00:38:23I'm exhausted.
00:38:24I'm sorry.
00:38:25I'm exhausted.
00:38:26What?
00:38:36Sleep.
00:38:39Yeah, but you're my wife.
00:38:51Sometimes I forget that she can't hear me.
00:38:53It's crazy that we've been married for three years.
00:38:58And I feel like you hate me more and more.
00:39:03You hate me for being in this marriage, but...
00:39:06If you're not with me, how can I protect you?
00:39:09I don't want you to be the perfect wife.
00:39:11You don't need to be the perfect daughter.
00:39:14I just want you to do what you love.
00:39:18I'm the one stuck in this family.
00:39:22And that's enough.
00:39:23Marcus, I can't see you clearly.
00:39:44Sometimes you're cold and cruel, but other times...
00:39:48You sound like you love me.
00:39:51Which one is the real you?
00:39:52Sorry, I'm late, everybody.
00:40:03Once dinner, I'm going to be ready.
00:40:06Enough with the carbs, Marcus.
00:40:08Your body shape reflects the family you come from.
00:40:11You don't want to end up obese like one of those poor people, do you?
00:40:14Sorry, Mom.
00:40:17There you go, you made PB&J my favorite.
00:40:44Yeah.
00:41:33Help with clothes.
00:42:03I really gotta keep a close eye on her, make sure she stays close to me.
00:42:12Sure enough, I'm never just your wife.
00:42:14I'm a pawn.
00:42:33So, we're gonna have to make sure that everything is gonna stick together.
00:42:42Oh, here we are.
00:42:43Hi, everybody.
00:42:44My name is Congressman Marcus Flick, and this is my team, okay?
00:42:48We came a long way to hear your thoughts.
00:42:50Please, guys, get them out there.
00:42:52Well, I'm curious what you plan to do about this drought we've been struggling these last 18 months.
00:42:58That's a great question.
00:43:00Um, off the noggin.
00:43:02I think it's important to point out that all of your needs have been finding their way to Sacramento,
00:43:07but they haven't also been falling onto deaf ears.
00:43:10Marcus is so handsome, isn't he?
00:43:12He's the pride of California.
00:43:14The most stylish, well-dressed politician in the state, hands down.
00:43:19And such a perfect husband keeps his wife out of the spotlight to protect her.
00:43:22Perfect husband?
00:43:24These people do not know the first thing about Marcus Flick.
00:43:27What'd you say?
00:43:30I'm sorry.
00:43:31I didn't mean to scare you.
00:43:32I'm sorry.
00:43:33I didn't mean to scare you.
00:43:37Do you want to check on the horses?
00:43:43I'm sorry.
00:43:44I'm sorry.
00:43:45I didn't mean to scare you.
00:43:50Do you want to check on the horses?
00:43:58Awesome.
00:43:59Um, they're right over there.
00:44:04Come on, sweetie.
00:44:05Here.
00:44:06Let me share.
00:44:07Looks like you two are having fun.
00:44:20Yeah, we are.
00:44:22If you want to pet a horse, I have one over here you can check out.
00:44:25This one's fine.
00:44:26Perfect.
00:44:27Congressman, can I get a shot of you two feeding the horse?
00:44:31Yeah, if you could feed the horse with her, please.
00:44:32This is great.
00:44:33Perfect.
00:44:34Yes.
00:44:35Yes.
00:44:36Oh, perfect.
00:44:37What is Marcus thinking bringing her there?
00:44:54What is Marcus thinking bringing her there?
00:45:13That's insane.
00:45:14But everyone is praising his kindness and sincerity.
00:45:18No one is even noticing everyone.
00:45:20The governor's campaign is coming up.
00:45:22You need to be careful.
00:45:29Simone, I thought I told you to handle your daughter.
00:45:35Congressman, we're moving on to the next activity.
00:45:41Okay.
00:45:42I'm going to want my wardrobe stylist with me at all times.
00:45:45Just in case she needs to help me on the spot.
00:45:48Okay.
00:45:49He is a control freak.
00:45:50He is a control freak.
00:45:56He is a control freak.
00:45:57He is a control freak.
00:46:03I'm not九o.
00:46:04I'm not looking for my wardrobe.
00:46:05I'm going to want my wardrobe to go....
00:46:06I'm going to do a nice job.
00:46:07I'm not going to have it at all.
00:46:08I'm going to help her out to go.
00:46:09I'm going to do a single minute.
00:46:10I'm going to use that.
00:46:11And I'm going to do a lot of work.
00:46:12I'm going to have to do my job.
00:46:13I'm looking for music and all that I need to do.
00:46:14And so, we're going to have to be careful.
00:46:15We're at the same time.
00:46:16We're going to have to do a different job.
00:46:17All right.
00:46:18I'm not going to be careful.
00:46:19I'm going to have to do a few minutes to do.
00:46:21We're going to do a few minutes.
00:46:22So, I understand the likelihood of you guys actually being able to read this is pretty low.
00:46:27Um, more or less, just trust me, just trust me, just trust me, just trust me, just trust me.
00:46:31Marcus!
00:46:52Are you, are you all right?
00:47:05Yeah, I'm all right.
00:47:07Are you hurt?
00:47:08I'm fine, I...
00:47:10Ariel, Ariel, can you hear me?
00:47:19No, I...
00:47:20I can't hear you.
00:47:22Ariel, if you can hear me, why are you answering my questions?
00:47:25I don't understand.
00:47:29Ariel, tell me the truth.
00:47:33Can you hear me?
00:47:39Why did you lie to me?
00:47:52Let go of me!
00:47:55How long have you had your hearing back, and when did you get your hearing back?
00:47:59Ariel, why did you lie to me?
00:48:04The day you want to meet Dad.
00:48:22What are you talking about?
00:48:23What are you talking about?
00:48:24The day my hearing came back was the day you wanted me dead.
00:48:27When did I want you dead?
00:48:28God, you really don't remember.
00:48:30The day I got kidnapped?
00:48:32The first thing I heard when I got my hearing back was you saying, call me back when she's
00:48:37a corpse.
00:48:37Oh, my God.
00:48:41The phone call.
00:48:44It wasn't...
00:48:45It wasn't just a spam call.
00:48:48Why didn't you tell me that you were kidnapped?
00:48:50Why didn't you tell me that you were in danger?
00:48:52Have you always been like this?
00:48:53Blaming everybody but yourself?
00:48:56Did you even care that I was in danger?
00:48:58Do you even see me as your wife?
00:49:00Because every day that I spend with you, I am trapped in a life that I did not choose.
00:49:04How was I supposed to know that the way I'm treating you is causing you so much pain?
00:49:08Please just let me go.
00:49:11I'm just a replacement for my sister.
00:49:28Remember?
00:49:30You really think that of me?
00:49:31Uh-uh.
00:49:32Because I wasn't blind or heartless before Marcus.
00:49:34I could still feel things I just couldn't hear.
00:49:37Ariel, please.
00:49:38Don't.
00:49:39Don't touch me.
00:49:42Ariel?
00:49:42What?
00:49:43I'm just a replacement for my sister.
00:49:45Remember?
00:49:46You really think that of me?
00:49:47Uh-huh.
00:49:48Because I wasn't blind or heartless before Marcus.
00:49:49I could still feel things I just couldn't hear.
00:49:50Ariel, please.
00:49:51Don't.
00:49:52Don't touch me.
00:49:53Ariel?
00:49:54so you can actually hear now this is getting interesting
00:50:24you
00:50:54Hello, Mrs. Rochester.
00:51:05I've heard you can hear again.
00:51:07Shouldn't you be thanking me?
00:51:24What the hell do you want?
00:51:32I thought you'd want to hear someone's voice.
00:51:34Come on, sweetie. Say hello to your dear brother.
00:51:37Johnny? No, please don't hurt him.
00:51:41I can't guarantee that. It depends on my mood.
00:51:45I'll give you anything you want. Just don't hurt him.
00:51:47What a deep love. That's touching, but you ruined my plan last time, remember?
00:51:54I swear to God, if you touch a hair on his head, I will make you pay.
00:51:58Oh, I'm not going to kill him.
00:52:01But as a punishment for your escape, I'm going to leave him in the mountains.
00:52:05I hope he's lucky enough to survive.
00:52:13Adrian, Amanda, the reality is we only have about eight weeks left of this campaign.
00:52:18So we need to lock in.
00:52:20Our goal is to get a hold of Sacramento, L.A., San Diego.
00:52:24All the official spurts.
00:52:43Johnny? Johnny? Johnny? Johnny? Johnny? Johnny, it's going to be okay.
00:52:47I'm here now. I'm here. It's okay. It's me.
00:52:49It's Ariel. I'm here. It's okay. It's okay.
00:52:51I'm here. I'm here. It's going to be okay.
00:52:55It's okay.
00:52:57Congressman Flick, we found the woman in the unconscious now.
00:53:01Congressman... Marcus?
00:53:03Marcus?
00:53:05Marcus, it's Johnny. There's something wrong, and I don't know what to do.
00:53:07I got you, okay? Don't panic. I'm going to take care of him.
00:53:09We need to get him to the hospital immediately.
00:53:11We're going to take a helicopter.
00:53:19Listen to me. Okay?
00:53:21He's going to go to the hospital. We're going to take care of him immediately.
00:53:23But you're hurt too. You need treatment.
00:53:25Congressman Flick.
00:53:27Can you ask your relationship with this lady and the victim?
00:53:31She's my own. She's, uh...
00:53:33She's my...
00:53:35She's my wife.
00:53:53Can you ask your relationship with this lady and the victim?
00:53:55She's my own.
00:53:57She's, uh...
00:53:59She's my wife.
00:54:03And the victim's my brother.
00:54:05This is your wife?
00:54:07Yes.
00:54:09And we need to get her to the hospital immediately.
00:54:11She's in shock.
00:54:13We'll talk about this later.
00:54:29Doctor.
00:54:31How's my brother?
00:54:33The patient's stable.
00:54:35He's just a little shaken up.
00:54:37But he'll be fine. He just needs rest.
00:54:39We appreciate your care.
00:54:41Thank you, Doctor.
00:54:43Mr. Congressman Flick, it's an honor to serve you.
00:54:45We'll give him the best everything.
00:54:47Don't worry. We'll take good care of your family.
00:54:55Marcus, I don't know how...
00:54:57You ruined everything again!
00:54:59You ruined everything again!
00:55:13Your son's in a coma, and your daughter's injured,
00:55:15and you're just gonna come over here as they're pointing fingers in a hospital?
00:55:17Marcus, it's all over in the news.
00:55:19Ariel went and rescued Johnny today.
00:55:21If people find out she's in a relationship with you,
00:55:23it could ruin your chances of being governor.
00:55:25That's not the point, OK? Family? Family comes first.
00:55:27Don't misunderstand me. I care for Johnny.
00:55:29But he's out of danger now, and it's just a matter of time before he recovers.
00:55:31But you, you're in the middle of an election!
00:55:33One mistake can cost us everything!
00:55:35You care about election results.
00:55:37But I think you only care about your own profits, don't you?
00:55:39I'm telling you right now, you're gonna treat my wife with respect.
00:55:41And I'm telling you right now, you're gonna treat my wife with respect.
00:55:43And you don't care about your own profits.
00:55:45You don't care about your own profits.
00:55:47You don't care about your own profits, don't you?
00:55:49I'm telling you right now, you're gonna treat my wife with respect.

00:58:39Thank you, Marcus, for everything.
00:58:44Come to the office tomorrow. I've got something to share with you.
00:58:53Hi.
00:58:56I don't want you being my wardrobe consultant anymore.
00:58:59Why?
00:59:01Because I've been pushing you too much, and you need to follow your dreams.
00:59:26Here.
00:59:28What's this?
00:59:29This is the key to a design studio in downtown.
00:59:34I raised $3 million in capital just for you. It's all yours.
00:59:37Are you serious?
00:59:39I'm not joking. And I need you to promise me something, okay?
00:59:43Please do not tell your mom or anybody that you can hear now.
00:59:47It's probably best so they're not judging us.
00:59:48Okay. Um, I have something for you too.
00:59:57What is this?
00:59:59Um, well, for the past three years, I have been documenting some of your looks.
01:00:04It's just some ideas, designs, and things.
01:00:08It's perfect.
01:00:11Come here.
01:00:24Come in.
01:00:28Congressman, Mr. and Mrs. Flick are here to see you.
01:00:38Okay, go ahead.
01:00:55Well, your governor's campaign has hit a critical phase, but your support is slipping.
01:01:09And meanwhile, Stephen Hopkins, his approval ratings are climbing.
01:01:17I have it under control.
01:01:19Under control? I don't see any progress in that.
01:01:23You are too distracted.
01:01:25Father, I'll handle my campaign. Ariel is not the problem.
01:01:28Hopkins' wife is actively involved in women's foundations and charity events, boosting his appeal.
01:01:36If you want to gain ground, Marcus, you need to present the image of a flawless family.
01:01:51Dress like Claire and join Marcus at campaign events?
01:01:58You won't do it?
01:02:14Father, Ariel, she is herself.
01:02:31She's not imitating her sister.
01:02:32She's not going to pretend to be anyone else in order to win political votes.
01:02:35You ungrateful son of a bitch!
01:02:39We gave you everything!
01:02:41Resources, training, this position.
01:02:45And this?
01:02:46This is how you're going to disobey us?
01:02:48This is my wife!
01:02:50Okay?
01:02:50Insulting her is disrespecting me!
01:02:52Respect!
01:02:55You!
01:02:56You are nothing without the Flick name!
01:02:59Nothing!
01:03:14Everything that you have here is us!
01:03:24None of your merit!
01:03:25And I am thankful for what you did for me, but I'm not going to use the people I love to win political gains!
01:03:31That is my boundary.
01:03:32A true politician has no soft spots, Marcus.
01:03:36Well, if being a successful politician means using the people I love, then I'll give it all up.
01:03:42How can you say that, Marcus?
01:03:45This is ridiculous!
01:03:48If we'd have known, we never would have picked you up at the orphanage.
01:03:53Never!
01:03:54Marcus is adopted.
01:03:57Let's go.
01:04:00Well, I'm sorry I wasn't the perfect son!
01:04:02I'm sorry I wasn't the perfect son!
01:04:14I wasn't the perfect son!
01:04:20I was the perfect son!
01:04:25Marcus.
01:04:27He's carried more than I ever realized.
01:04:30Congressman Marcus Flick to deliver inspiring election pep talk in Southern California.
01:04:44Here, for your campaign tomorrow.
01:04:49I already signed it.
01:04:54But the campaign just started, and now you want a divorce?
01:04:57You see, somebody called me, and they told me
01:05:00that if you love someone, you do not trap them in a political marriage.
01:05:08Ariel, I thought I was protecting you.
01:05:10But I was just helping myself.
01:05:12I was preventing you from what you wanted.
01:05:16Because I thought I was going to hurt you.
01:05:18But I was being a hypocrite.
01:05:22And I'm sorry.
01:05:26This, at least one of us gets to be free.
01:05:42But I was being a hypocrite.
01:05:49And I'm sorry.
01:05:52Now, at least one of us gets to be free.
01:05:55Mm-hmm.
01:06:15Mm-hmm.
01:06:46Congressman, do you know what a mistake you've made?
01:07:16You know, I don't know what I did tonight, but feel free to punish me.
01:07:32What are you saying?
01:07:34Aren't you afraid of being overheard?
01:07:36Ariel, can I talk dirty to my wife?
01:07:40Stop being slick.
01:07:41I, um, I made you a coat.
01:07:45For the rally tomorrow.
01:07:46Hope you like it.
01:07:48Wait, a trench coat?
01:07:48Isn't that too flashy?
01:07:50No, the suit cliche thing is so over.
01:07:52People crave more personality these days.
01:07:54I'll do whatever you say, ma'am.
01:07:56Okay.
01:07:57Well, I will bring you the coat.
01:07:59I'll see you.
01:08:01And, uh, I miss you.
01:08:05Okay.
01:08:06Well, that's enough out of you.
01:08:08But, fine.
01:08:11I miss you too.
01:08:11I miss you too.
01:08:41Sir, a package arrived for you.
01:08:55Oh, my God.
01:08:58This is Ariel's coat. Where is she?
01:08:59No word yet. She's not answering calls.
01:09:01Well, you need to check her studio right now, okay?
01:09:04I'm on it, Congressman.
01:09:05Your supporters are waiting for you.
01:09:07You need to get on stage now.
01:09:09No, they can wait.
01:09:10I'm going to go check on Ariel right now, okay?
01:09:13What are you doing?
01:09:14Look, time is gold.
01:09:16You don't want to let your sponsors down, do you?
01:09:21Tom, you're going to go check on her right now.
01:09:23Tell me if anything changes.
01:09:27Thanks for having me, everybody.
01:09:28Thank you, thank you, thank you.
01:09:30I think as dark as it is,
01:09:32we're going to have a great night, everybody.
01:09:38Oh, my God.
01:09:40There's water everywhere.
01:09:41There's water everywhere.
01:09:42Oh, my God.
01:09:43Help!
01:09:57Oh, my God.
01:09:59There's water everywhere.
01:10:00There's water everywhere.
01:10:01Oh, my God.
01:10:02Help!
01:10:02Somebody help me! Help, please!
01:10:10Johnny? I don't...
01:10:14Johnny? Johnny, wake up. That's not funny.
01:10:18Johnny, wake up. Oh, my God. Johnny, look at you. This is all your fault.
01:10:22What do you think of Johnny? You've nothing but a curse.
01:10:26Oh, my God. Is he breathing? Johnny? Johnny?
01:10:28It's my fault. Oh, my God. It's my fault.
01:10:30Oh, my God. It's my fault. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
01:10:32Johnny? Johnny?
01:10:34I need you. Help!
01:10:36Help!
01:10:42Oh, please.
01:10:48Pick up. Turn it on.
01:10:54What do you want with me?
01:11:00You'll find out soon enough.
01:11:04Thanks for having me, everybody. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
01:11:06Hello. How sweet.
01:11:08You think the congressman knows his life is just a breath away from death?
01:11:12Want to give him a little charging?
01:11:14Oh, no.
01:11:16No.
01:11:18Oh, you want me to be?
01:11:20Oh, you want me to be?
01:11:22Fine.
01:11:24You're welcome.
01:11:25No, Marcus.
01:11:26Don't answer.
01:11:27My goal is to increase economic growth by 20%.
01:11:30All while tackling homelessness and reducing crime.
01:11:34Sir.
01:11:35Oh, no.
01:11:40Oh, you want me to be?
01:11:42Fine.
01:11:44You're welcome.
01:11:46No, Marcus, don't answer.
01:11:50My goal is to increase economic growth by 20%,
01:11:53all while tackling homelessness and reducing crime.
01:11:59Sir.
01:12:05Marcus, I'm so sorry.
01:12:09I love you. I lied to you.
01:12:11No, Ariel. Ariel, where are you?
01:12:12I lied to you about the phone calls.
01:12:14I thought I could protect you.
01:12:17And now I think that maybe if I'd just been honest with you all along,
01:12:19none of this would have ever happened.
01:12:21Ariel, please stay on the phone, okay? Just tell me where you're-
01:12:23The Rivertown Park. Come alone. No cops. Or she dies.
01:12:31I gotta go.
01:12:32Come with me. You're such a slap nationwide.
01:12:34You can't just leave now.
01:12:38I gotta go.
01:12:39Well, that's so sweet.
01:12:45He's actually abandoning this campaign to save you.
01:12:49No, you can have all my money. Just don't make Marcus come here.
01:12:53Shut up!
01:12:54This isn't about money. This is about me and Marcus. You're just the people.
01:12:59Wait a minute. Your voice. I know your voice.
01:13:03You haven't figured it out by now. It doesn't matter.
01:13:05You'll be dead soon anyway.
01:13:09Ariel!
01:13:10Ariel!
01:13:11This isn't about money. This is about me and Mark here. You're just the people.
01:13:16Wait a minute. Your voice. I know your voice.
01:13:21You haven't figured it out by now? It doesn't matter. You'll be dead soon anyway.
01:13:34Ariel!
01:13:41Ariel!
01:13:56Ariel!
01:14:01Ariel, I'm coming!
01:14:07Please.
01:14:12Ariel!
01:14:14Please pick up, please pick up, please pick up, please pick up.
01:14:20Oh, yeah.
01:14:22Please pick up, please pick up, please pick up, please pick up.
01:14:33Ariel!
01:14:34Ariel!
01:14:36I don't know.
01:15:06It's okay. It's okay.
01:15:08Here, here, I'm gonna get you home.
01:15:10Let's go.
01:15:16Marcus, behind you!
01:15:27It's you?
01:15:30It's you?
01:15:36It's you?
01:15:55It's you?
01:15:56But we were friends.
01:16:03You approached me!
01:16:05After years of digging and searching, I uncovered the real secrets about your perfect marriage.
01:16:12Yeah, I kidnapped you once you got away.
01:16:15You stole my phone, too, so I had to get closer.
01:16:18I joined your campaign team.
01:16:20Marcus, do you ever wonder why you couldn't track the threatening calls you were getting?
01:16:25That's because your culprit was right there on your IT team.
01:16:29How blind can you be?
01:16:35Marcus, do you ever wonder why you couldn't track the threatening calls you were getting?
01:16:49That's because your culprit was right there on your IT team.
01:16:53How blind can you be?
01:16:54This is all because you're trying to sabotage my campaign?
01:16:58It's not even worth it!
01:17:00Look at my face!
01:17:01Do you even recognize me?
01:17:03Do you know who I am?
01:17:06Of course you don't.
01:17:08Let me remind you.
01:17:10Fifteen years ago.
01:17:11The orphanage.
01:17:13Your best...
01:17:14...friend.
01:17:15No.
01:17:24No, no, it can't be.
01:17:26Yeah!
01:17:27Yeah, Marcus, it isiii.
01:17:45No, no, it can't be.
01:17:51Yeah, yeah, Marcus, it is me.
01:17:55Hey, where's my money, huh?
01:17:56I don't have it.
01:17:57Where's my cash?
01:17:59Have anything.
01:18:00Hey, leave him alone.
01:18:02Leave him alone.
01:18:05You okay?
01:18:07What happened?
01:18:09He called me a fat pig.
01:18:11Ignore them.
01:18:12They're just jerks.
01:18:15Thanks, Marcus.
01:18:16Can I hang out with you?
01:18:17Of course.
01:18:18We're friends now.
01:18:21Sean, what happened to you?
01:18:23You've changed.
01:18:25You recognize me now?
01:18:27Noble congressman, or should I say you're an orphan nobody wanted?
01:18:31You keep that a secret from your voters, too.
01:18:34Sean, why do you hate me?
01:18:35We were friends.
01:18:36Why do you hate me?
01:18:37Why are you targeting Ariel?
01:18:38Friends?
01:18:39You stole everything from me, Marcus.
01:18:42That stage you parade around on.
01:18:45This life of power and respect belong to me, not to you.
01:18:50And at first, I'd let it go.
01:19:04I wanted to let it go.
01:19:05But every time I turned on the TV, I saw you parading around this perfect life, and it wasn't fair.
01:19:11The flicks chose Marcus.
01:19:13Shut up!
01:19:13The flicks chose me.
01:19:16But on adoption day, yeah, you remember, I got sick from the cake you gave me.
01:19:21I was at the hospital with food poisoning, so they took you instead.
01:19:25Sean, I went back to the orphanage.
01:19:27I spoke to the dean, and he said that you were adopted by a loving family, that you were happy.
01:19:31Happy?
01:19:32I was adopted into a nightmare, a couple that divorced and left me out to rot.
01:19:40What about that is happy?
01:19:44Sean, I'm sorry for what you went through, but revenge is not the way.
01:19:48We've got to figure this out together.
01:19:49Figure it out?
01:19:50What are we going to figure out, Marcus?
01:19:52I spent years suffering watching you live my life.
01:19:56We are never figuring it out.
01:19:57Hold on, I got you.
01:20:04Sean, I'm not going to let you fall any further.
01:20:18Come on.
01:20:20Sean.
01:20:22Sean.
01:20:24Sean, we don't have to hate each other.
01:20:26Okay, just let it go.
01:20:28I will go to the police.
01:20:29I will explain everything.
01:20:30You don't have to worry about it.
01:20:31Just please.
01:20:33Please, don't let the hatred consume you.
01:20:39You were always a saint, Marcus.
01:20:41Marcus, look out!
01:20:46Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god.
01:20:47Are you okay?
01:20:49Perfect.
01:20:51You get to die in front of the one you love the most.
01:20:54My revenge is complete.
01:20:58Daniel, don't you don't need to...
01:21:00It's okay.
01:21:06You're okay.
01:21:07Just apply pressure.
01:21:08Don't cry.
01:21:08Let's give you a handpipe.
01:21:09I'm fine.
01:21:11Let's give you a handpipe.
01:21:11Hey.
01:21:11Daniel, you don't need to...
01:21:25It's okay.
01:21:30You're okay.
01:21:31Just apply pressure.
01:21:32You're okay.
01:21:33I'm fine.
01:21:33Are you okay?
01:21:35I need you to apply pressure.
01:21:36I need you to stay with me.
01:21:37I love you and I need you to hang in there, okay?
01:21:42I love you.
01:21:43Don't say that right now.
01:21:44Please, just hold that for later.
01:21:46We're going to say that later.
01:21:47Okay?
01:21:47We're going to get out of here.
01:21:48Do you trust me?
01:21:49I trust you.
01:21:52Daniel Juan, come to the lake.
01:21:55Now.
01:21:55Marjorie's fuck is dying.
01:21:56No.
01:21:56Ariel?
01:22:18Claire?
01:22:21Why are you here?
01:22:24I've been living abroad.
01:22:25Marcus and I have been talking, keeping in touch over the last couple years, and his assistant
01:22:31told me that he was hospitalized.
01:22:33So sorry.
01:22:34I didn't realize you and Marcus still talked.
01:22:36I thought, um, you don't know that why he married you instead of me?
01:22:50Claire.
01:22:51If you're trying to convince me to stay, don't bother.
01:22:53Claire, I admire your courage to live the life you want.
01:22:57I don't want to be a pawn for the family's games anymore.
01:23:01I want to be free.
01:23:03I know.
01:23:04I'm not going to hold you back anymore.
01:23:07But you've got to do one thing for me.
01:23:09Can you please tell your parents?
01:23:11Can you please tell them to let Ariel marry me?
01:23:15Marcus chose me?
01:23:16Marcus chose me?
01:23:30He knew that Simone would marry you off for money if he couldn't.
01:23:34He married you to protect you.
01:23:36And if he acted indifferent, it's only because he didn't want you to get too attached.
01:23:41Why didn't he just say that?
01:23:42You know, Marcus, because I can't admit his feelings very easily.
01:23:48But his love, it's deeper than anyone's.
01:23:55So, he doesn't know that I've been in love with him since we were children?
01:24:00It's always been you, Ariel.
01:24:05Ever since we were children, it's only ever been you.
01:24:09He's always loved you.
01:24:10Marcus, you really are the dumbest asshole in the world.
01:24:33You know that, right?
01:24:33Why didn't you tell me you married me to protect me?
01:24:38Why were you so cold?
01:24:40Why did you...
01:24:42Why did you protect you hated me?
01:24:47Because none of it worked.
01:24:50I still love you.
01:24:54Of course I still love you.
01:24:56I need you.
01:24:58You can't leave me, okay?
01:24:59Okay?
01:25:03Take this ring.
01:25:08Take it.
01:25:11And put it on my finger again.
01:25:12I just...
01:25:13I need to...
01:25:17hear you say that you love me.
01:25:21Please, Marcus.
01:25:21You're awake.
01:25:39You're awake.
01:25:40You're awake.
01:25:50This...
01:25:50This ring wasn't left behind by your sister.
01:25:55It was made custom for you.
01:25:58It's unique just like you.
01:26:02It just wasn't the right time to give it to you before.
01:26:04Because you were mad and...
01:26:07And I'm sorry.
01:26:11Marcus, are you always this overdramatic?
01:26:15Yes.
01:26:16And it's because I think you're the only one who can handle me.
01:26:18Miss Ariel Rochester.
01:26:35Will you still...
01:26:39Will you still marry me?
01:26:44Yes.
01:26:46I will.
01:26:47Come here.
01:27:12Stop it.
01:27:13Stop.
01:27:13I'm not kidding.
01:27:14Don't be so naughty, Governor.
01:27:18Oh, I could be naughty.
01:27:19Yeah.
01:27:20I...
01:27:35I want to take a moment to thank my parents and my campaign team and all my friends out
01:27:43there who have carried me through every challenge.
01:27:46But above all, I want to thank my wife.
01:27:53Ariel Rochester.
01:27:54With strength, courage, and love, I wouldn't be alive without today.
01:28:02This woman is not only my wife.
01:28:05She is the dream that carried me through my childhood.
01:28:09And she's the light that pierces my darkest days.
01:28:12Ariel, I love you.
01:28:15Can you hear that?
01:28:16Yes, I can.
01:28:16Yes, I can.
01:28:18Yeah.
01:28:19Yeah.
01:28:19That and too.
01:28:23You
