00:00:00Master Marco had a widow named Ava Jackson, and she was carrying his child.
00:00:07I'm gonna bring my daughter-in-law home, where she belongs.
00:00:12My brother, I will protect your legacy, and I will protect our family.
00:00:18Who are you, really?
00:00:21A mere day she has swung with our family out of millions of dollars.
00:00:26I've wanted Luka for years, and then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks.
00:00:31If I can't have him, I'll destroy him now.
00:00:35Your life belongs to us.
00:00:38Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.
00:00:43From this moment forward, I swear to you, nobody will ever hate you.
00:00:49I guess my brother had good reason to fall for her.
00:00:56Ava, you're so close, is this a dream?
00:01:02If anyone sees us like this, they'll immediately send me first.
00:01:07Ava, I have fallen in love with you.
00:01:10I'm your brother's wife.
00:01:12We didn't do anything wrong, so why are you worried?
00:01:14If you knew I had feelings for your brother, would you hate me?
00:01:18I should never have let you go undercover on that damn business deal.
00:01:36I never even got to say goodbye.
00:01:38Marco, my brother, I will protect your legacy.
00:01:42And I will protect our family.
00:01:50Hey, hey, who are you?
00:01:52Which family do you work for?
00:01:54I just came to drop off the flowers, I didn't mean to retreat.
00:01:57Luka, look at her.
00:01:59She's hardly a threat.
00:02:00For the flowers, and for the interruption, my apologies.
00:02:14Senor Mancini, Master Marco had a widow named Ava Jackson.
00:02:27And she was carrying his child.
00:02:29Get the car.
00:02:31I'll never bring my daughter-in-law home where she belongs.
00:02:36Don't worry, little one.
00:02:45We'll get through this together.
00:02:48Somehow.
00:02:52Well, looky here.
00:02:54Family Jinx is finally six feet under.
00:02:57Derek, have you lost your mind?
00:03:07What the hell was that?
00:03:08Don't tell me that you're actually planning on keeping that little parasite.
00:03:13This is Marco's baby.
00:03:16This is our child.
00:03:17Of course I'm keeping it.
00:03:19Ever since you got knocked up, you've done nothing to help this family.
00:03:24Emily, we've been struggling while you've been out here playing the grieving widow.
00:03:28Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.
00:03:34Because you owe me.
00:03:37This is your fault.
00:03:40I dropped out of college for this family.
00:03:43I took five jobs.
00:03:44What more could you possibly want?
00:03:45It'll never be enough, Ava.
00:03:47You'll owe us till the day you die.
00:03:50Please, sweetheart.
00:03:53Think of your brother.
00:03:58I'm gonna stomp out that little bastard right now.
00:04:01Send him straight to hell.
00:04:03So he can say hello to his deadbeat dad.
00:04:08Hex!
00:04:23What the hell is going on here?
00:04:24Who the hell are you people?
00:04:25Ava, right?
00:04:26You were here this morning.
00:04:27Enough, Luca.
00:04:28She's hardly up here.
00:04:29Ma'am?
00:04:30I'm Helena Mancini.
00:04:31Marco's mother.
00:04:32That means I'm your baby's grandmother.
00:04:33The most powerful mafia family in the country.
00:04:34Marco was my oldest.
00:04:35He was my golden boy.
00:04:37I am so sorry that he concealed his identity from you.
00:04:43You have endured far too much suffering because of it.
00:04:50Plain make-believe?
00:04:51Mancini?
00:04:52Seriously.
00:04:53Like, is anybody here actually buying this?
00:04:54Question my identity again and my men will make sure your other leg looks like your first
00:05:01one.
00:05:02Permanently.
00:05:03What are you doing?
00:05:04Derek!
00:05:05Run!
00:05:06Maybe we should just go.
00:05:07Because...
00:05:08I'm so sorry that he concealed his identity from you.
00:05:09I'm so sorry that he concealed his identity from you.
00:05:10You have endured far too much suffering because of it.
00:05:13Plain make-believe?
00:05:14Mancini?
00:05:15Seriously.
00:05:16Like, is anybody here actually buying this?
00:05:18Question my identity again and my men will make sure your other leg looks like your first
00:05:24one.
00:05:25Permanently.
00:05:26What are you doing?
00:05:27Derek!
00:05:28Run!
00:05:29Maybe we should just go.
00:05:30One moment here.
00:05:31Anyone who raises a hand to my daughter-in-law deserves to have their fingers snapped.
00:05:42One by one.
00:05:45Come along, my dear.
00:05:49Let's get you home.
00:05:51To your real home.
00:05:53Come on.
00:05:54Come on.
00:05:55Come on.
00:06:00Come on.
00:06:03Welcome home, Signora Eva Ligini.
00:06:18This is where Marco lived.
00:06:21And now, it's your hand.
00:06:24Allow me to introduce you to your personal staff, Mrs. Mancini.
00:06:34Your nutritionist, nanny, maternity nurse, each of the finest specialists money can acquire.
00:06:38We pledge your absolute dedication to your health and well-being, Signora.
00:06:45Your days of working multiple jobs are over, my dear.
00:06:49Ten million dollars is a little spending money.
00:06:51Well, thank you, but I can't accept this.
00:06:56I married Marco for love, not for his fortune.
00:07:01Practical and principled, my Marco truly had an eye for quality.
00:07:07There is one more member of the family that you need to properly meet.
00:07:12That would be Luca, Marco's younger brother.
00:07:15The brooding iceberg that you encountered this morning.
00:07:18Well, well, well.
00:07:19There's a flower girl in the cemetery.
00:07:24Luca, come meet Eva, your brother's wife.
00:07:27Please, show her proper...
00:07:31Respect!
00:07:34You walk back into a Mancini household?
00:07:38You're either incredibly stupid or incredibly brave.
00:07:43Luca!
00:07:44Open this door immediately!
00:07:45Everyone, around back, now!
00:07:52Who are you, really?
00:07:55I'll be watching your every move, your every breath.
00:08:01So tell me, who are you, really?
00:08:05My brother's dead, and you appear suddenly?
00:08:08Was this your endgame all along?
00:08:11Our fortune?
00:08:12I didn't know Marco's a Mancini.
00:08:14And now?
00:08:15I don't need this.
00:08:16I can walk right out those doors.
00:08:18You can't walk anywhere!
00:08:19She's not going anywhere!
00:08:24And get your hands off of her!
00:08:27She is carrying Marco's child.
00:08:29Oh, is she?
00:08:31How do we even know it is Marco's child?
00:08:33Convenient timing, wouldn't you say?
00:08:34Questioning on you, Marco, don't you dare question my child?
00:08:42That's my girl!
00:08:43Backbone of steel!
00:08:46Are you hurt?
00:08:48Luca!
00:08:49You are too rude!
00:08:50Ava is a good girl!
00:08:52You are falsely accusing her!
00:08:54Come on, sweetie.
00:08:55Mom's going to take you and get some clothes.
00:08:57Pay no attention to the school.
00:08:59You may be fooling them, but I will find out about you and I will expose you.
00:09:07These are all the latest European styles.
00:09:26Take your pick.
00:09:27I have plenty to wear.
00:09:29And these are much too expensive.
00:09:31Oh, not to worry.
00:09:33It's all on Luca's card.
00:09:35Treat my dear daughter-in-law well.
00:09:37Tryna be open and honest.
00:10:02This weight on my chest, I don't want it.
00:10:05I'd hate to be breaking, I promise
00:10:09Cause I owe you the truth that I...
00:10:13Oh, isn't she gorgeous?
00:10:17She's... adequate?
00:10:21Always the tough guy act with you.
00:10:25Your eyes tell a different story, my son.
00:10:29Oh yes, this is just perfect.
00:10:33We will take one of everything in her size.
00:10:37Mom?
00:10:39Mom?
00:10:41That's too generous.
00:10:43Nonsense. We're family now.
00:10:47I am putting Luca's contact info into your phone.
00:10:51Reach out to him. Whatever you need.
00:10:53And don't worry.
00:10:55He's actually quite a softie.
00:10:59Now, shall we continue shopping?
00:11:01Yes.
00:11:03Sir.
00:11:05Yes?
00:11:07Your mother has spent approximately $15 million on Miss Jackson in the last week alone.
00:11:13God.
00:11:15In mere days she has swooned our family out of millions of dollars.
00:11:19She's clearly not an amateur.
00:11:21She's also been spending a substantial amount since marrying your brother to pay off her brother's debts.
00:11:27I want everything on her.
00:11:29Everything!
00:11:31If she is playing us for fools,
00:11:33then I will personally ensure that she regrets ever hearing the name Mancino.
00:11:37Mancino.
00:11:45I'm sorry ma'am.
00:11:47I hate to put extra stress on your shoulders,
00:11:49but we need to discuss the incredible cost of your husband's care.
00:11:55And how the bill will be paid.
00:11:57Limited edition is perfect for you.
00:12:05Marco, you just focus on getting better, okay?
00:12:07Don't worry about the bills.
00:12:09I've got it covered.
00:12:11Your brother married Miss Jackson under false pretenses.
00:12:23She worked several jobs to make that money.
00:12:25And when your brother got sick,
00:12:27she worked to pay off his medical bills.
00:12:29And then day and night for his funeral.
00:12:31Did I get her all wrong?
00:12:33Hello?
00:12:45Mother is unwell.
00:12:47You need to return home immediately.
00:12:51What's wrong with mom?
00:12:53Is...
00:12:55Is she hurt?
00:12:57Mom?
00:12:59What's going on?
00:13:01Ava...
00:13:07Please don't be angry.
00:13:09We just had to get you here.
00:13:15What are you doing?
00:13:17Since you won't help us financially,
00:13:19we had to find another solution.
00:13:21Victor Fang.
00:13:23That old loan shark's willing to give us $80,000 just to marry you.
00:13:31Are you insane?
00:13:33I'm pregnant!
00:13:35Your husband's dead, Ava.
00:13:37Why keep his baby?
00:13:39Think about your family.
00:13:40Mr. Fang is waiting.
00:13:41Don't make this harder than it needs to be.
00:13:43You are not selling me off to Victor Fang!
00:13:47If she dies, how will you provide for this child?
00:13:53She's calling someone!
00:14:05Hello?
00:14:07Help!
00:14:11Ava's in danger! We need to move!
00:14:13Go, go, go!
00:14:15Go, go, go, go, go!
00:14:33You think someone's coming to save you?
00:14:35God!
00:14:37God!
00:14:39Who dares manhandle my future bride?
00:14:43Mr. Fang!
00:14:44Oh, it's such a pleasure.
00:14:46This is Ava, my sister, who we discussed.
00:14:49Ooh! Two for the price of one, I see.
00:14:52Oh, it's just some dead guy's kid.
00:14:54If you want, I can take care of it right now.
00:14:56We can offer you a discount, and I think $60,000 is more than fair.
00:15:00Pennies for somebody of your wealth.
00:15:02Derek, you're sick!
00:15:03I'm your sister, this is your nephew!
00:15:05My son's future is more important to me than that stupid little bastard of yours!
00:15:10Hey, hey!
00:15:11No need to be so rough with such a beautiful lady.
00:15:16Now, dear.
00:15:17Just take this right here, and it'll make things easier for everybody.
00:15:22Oh, okay!
00:15:24You're a little feisty, I see.
00:15:28Maybe you just need a little personal attention.
00:15:35Ah!
00:15:56Get out of my way!
00:15:57I always knew Ava was trouble.
00:15:58Her husband's barely cold, and she already has another.
00:16:01Who the hell do you think you are?
00:16:07I'm looking at Mancini.
00:16:09Mancini?
00:16:10You idiot!
00:16:12You killed me!
00:16:13How did my sister get caught up with the likes of you?
00:16:15Ava is my brother's widow, and her baby is his only child.
00:16:21So it's true?
00:16:22Her baby's the heir to the Mancini family?
00:16:25Looks like your wife is pregnant too.
00:16:27Yes!
00:16:28Yes!
00:16:29Yes!
00:16:30It's true!
00:16:31I swear!
00:16:32We didn't know!
00:16:33Please!
00:16:34Please!
00:16:35You will be dealt with, tenfold, what you did to Ava.
00:16:40Get a doctor!
00:16:41Get a doctor!
00:16:42Get a car!
00:16:43And deal with him!
00:16:44You have to stop!
00:16:45I love you!
00:16:50Some people in Us too.
00:16:52But I'm gonna die!
00:16:54I love you.
00:16:56I love you!
00:16:58I love you!
00:16:59You've done my best!
00:17:02Please!
00:17:04And I'm here!
00:17:06I love you!
00:17:07Mom, hey.
00:17:22How's Ava? How's the baby?
00:17:25The doctors are examining her now.
00:17:31Doctor, how is she?
00:17:32Mrs. Mancini has a severe ankle fracture that it needs immediate surgery.
00:17:37The medication could cause a miscarriage, so we need to have consent before we can proceed.
00:17:43Do it. Whatever it takes.
00:17:45No!
00:17:48Doctor, is there any way to do the surgery without anesthesia?
00:17:53That's not medically advisable. The pain would be too excruciating.
00:17:59This baby is Marco's only child, his only heir.
00:18:03I can't risk losing it.
00:18:06I can handle the pain.
00:18:08Oh, my brave girl.
00:18:10God bless you.
00:18:12You know, I think somebody should be with her during the operation.
00:18:16The pain would be just too intense.
00:18:19I'll stay with her.
00:18:20How'd it go, doctor?
00:18:32It's a success.
00:18:34You're a real trooper, if you don't mind me saying.
00:18:49I guess my brother had good reason to fall for her.
00:18:53Senora Ava, please, let me help you.
00:19:15I know your stay at the hospital could not have been easy for you, and that's why I'm having
00:19:3130% of Mancini Group shares put into your name.
00:19:35No.
00:19:36Mom, I cannot accept that.
00:19:40We're family.
00:19:42It's what you deserve.
00:19:43Actually, I've been thinking about doing something else.
00:19:48I'd like to go back to work.
00:19:51Work?
00:19:52But, but, you're pregnant.
00:19:54Oh, honey, if you need money, I'll just transfer some into your account.
00:19:57No, no, it's not about money.
00:19:59Marco always said that we should make our own way.
00:20:05And I want our child to know his father and know what he valued.
00:20:12You are as stubborn as he was.
00:20:17Look, you're going to need protection.
00:20:20You'll accompany her.
00:20:24No, no, no, no, no.
00:20:25I can manage on my own.
00:20:27In the morning, 10 a.m., I'll be at the entrance.
00:20:42You know that I can talk to your manager for you, make sure that they accommodate every need.
00:20:46No need.
00:20:47I don't want any special treatments.
00:20:50But, thank you for the ride.
00:20:51You know, Ava, you do not need to be afraid of me.
00:20:57I can help you.
00:20:59Whatever you need.
00:21:00Why is she even back?
00:21:20That pregnant belly ruins the store's aesthetic.
00:21:22These pregnant women know exactly what they're doing.
00:21:25Hiding behind maternity protections.
00:21:28We can't legally fire her.
00:21:30Could you reassign her to the warehouse?
00:21:32Maybe move some stock around?
00:21:34And if something happens to her or the baby, you want that liability?
00:21:37We can't fire her, but we certainly can make her life difficult enough that she decides to quit on her own.
00:21:45And that concludes our quarterly revenue projections.
00:22:07Sir, forgive my directness, but are we here because you're concerned about your sister-in-law?
00:22:22Should I have the car brought around for your next meeting?
00:22:26Cancel the meeting?
00:22:27I've been meaning to talk to you.
00:22:33Given your, um, condition, I've been worried about potential liability issues.
00:22:39My pregnancy will not affect my performance.
00:22:42I do not intend to take advantage of company policy.
00:22:45Oh, glad to hear that.
00:22:48Then you won't mind proving your commitment.
00:22:50Sell one million dollars worth of merchandise by today,
00:22:54and I'll put all of my concerns to rest.
00:22:57I've seen your sales record.
00:22:59I know you can do it.
00:23:00Aww, look.
00:23:13This is the hour, hour.
00:23:19You see,
00:23:20that we'll make matters out of obstacles
00:23:23and stepping stones and roadblocks
00:23:25Sleep over the lines that say we won't cross
00:23:28Sir, half an hour until closing, and Mrs. Mancini has already surpassed the store's average monthly sales in a single day.
00:23:49But she's still a great deal short of the manager's impossible target.
00:23:52She did make it clear that she doesn't want any special treatment, but I have been neglecting my own wardrobe.
00:24:02And the Rossi family event will require several new suits.
00:24:06Now that you mention it, sir, your formal collection is missing quite a few essential items.
00:24:11Then I should do some personal shopping, shouldn't I?
00:24:18Sir, may I assist you?
00:24:20Sir, this limited edition silk tie would go perfect with your complexion.
00:24:24Sir, I'd be happy to take your measurements, personally.
00:24:27Sir, as store manager, I would be honored to assist you with your needs myself.
00:24:34I'd actually like Miss Jackson to assist me.
00:24:37I hear her taste in men's fashion is exceptional.
00:24:44Shall we begin?
00:24:45Right this way, sir.
00:24:47I just need to take your measurements.
00:24:55Whoa, what are you doing?
00:24:58Your measurements are good.
00:25:00I just needed you to take the jacket off.
00:25:03Well, we don't have much time.
00:25:10Trust me.
00:25:12Trust me.
00:25:12I know.
00:25:18Now, imagine me like this.
00:25:25Fuck me.
00:25:26Mm-hmm.
00:25:27Ava, time is almost up.
00:25:47I did it.
00:25:56I saved my job and I made a new sales record.
00:26:16It's no reason to thank me.
00:26:17I'm here to help.
00:26:19Whenever you need help.
00:26:20I hate to do this, but Ava Jackson.
00:26:25You're fired.
00:26:27What?
00:26:29No.
00:26:30I met your target and then some.
00:26:33Oh.
00:26:34That last sale?
00:26:35The one that put you over the top?
00:26:37That was actually mine.
00:26:38You're trying to steal my commission?
00:26:40Well, that won't work because everyone in this store saw me make that sale.
00:26:45I get it.
00:26:52You threatened them into silence.
00:26:54Well, that won't work either.
00:26:55Because the security cameras caught everything.
00:26:58Security cameras?
00:27:08What horrible timing.
00:27:10Unfortunately, the security cameras are down for maintenance today.
00:27:14But fortunately, everyone here saw you destroy thousands of dollars worth of merchandise.
00:27:20You all saw Ava, didn't you?
00:27:22Yeah, we all saw it.
00:27:24So someone should call security.
00:27:27Better yet, call the police.
00:27:37I'm sorry sir, but we're closed for the day.
00:27:39I heard this store get trashed.
00:27:41I'm going to have to ask you to leave or I'm going to have to call the police.
00:27:45The police work for me.
00:27:47Are you?
00:27:48Luca Mancini?
00:27:50I sat down.
00:27:50I'm sorry.
00:27:59I'm sorry.
00:28:00I'm sorry.
00:28:01I'm sorry.
00:28:02I'm sorry.
00:28:34Please stop. I admit it. I was wrong.
00:28:46Who really damaged the merchandise in this store?
00:28:48The items they used to store are worth over several millions of dollars at five years in prison.
00:28:57Hugo, what happened?
00:28:59There's nothing worth talking about. We need to go.
00:29:00And by the way, you're fired.
00:29:03Let's go.
00:29:03Come on, cut this door.
00:29:09How dare that woman mess with my family?
00:29:15I will make sure, personally, that she suffers for it.
00:29:19You don't have to worry about that anymore.
00:29:21It's all taken care of, thanks to Luca.
00:29:24This door looked like a tornado hit it.
00:29:26Mandy will be serving time in a jail cell.
00:29:29Justice is served.
00:29:30That's my boy.
00:29:35Sweetheart, I would like you to concentrate full-time on your pregnancy right now.
00:29:40All of this work drama can wait until after my grandchild is born safely.
00:29:45Yes, Mommy.
00:29:46I transferred $5 million into your personal account for prenatal care.
00:29:52I am worried about the baby's well-being.
00:29:56Luca, I'd like you to take her to the doctor tomorrow for an exam.
00:29:59No, that's really not necessary.
00:30:06I have those meetings in Europe, so possibly I could have some more substitute in.
00:30:10Yeah, and I'm perfectly capable of going by myself.
00:30:14I don't want to travel, Luca, with something so routine.
00:30:18It's decided.
00:30:22Cancel whatever meetings you have.
00:30:24I want you to take her.
00:30:26I will not stand for any more incidents.
00:30:29Yes, Mother.
00:30:29No.
00:30:31Ava Jackson, we're ready for you now.
00:30:46Dad should come too.
00:30:48We encourage partner participation.
00:30:51Oh, no.
00:30:51He's not.
00:30:56Would you prefer that I explain that I'm your dead husband's brother?
00:30:59That might be a bit awkward.
00:31:01Mr. and Mrs. Jackson, please come in when you're ready.
00:31:03Coming.
00:31:11If you could lift your top up slightly and lower your skirt band just a bit, we'll get started.
00:31:24First prenatal checkup together, I'm guessing.
00:31:29The baby looks perfectly healthy.
00:31:35Current length is about three inches with a strong heart rate.
00:31:40Is the baby moving?
00:31:42Yes, indeed.
00:31:43Look there.
00:31:45The little one's making faces.
00:31:49Quite the expressive child already.
00:31:52Dad, don't you want to come take a look?
00:32:04The baby's at 18 weeks now, developing beautifully.
00:32:09For home care, I recommend plenty of rest, nutrient-rich foods, and tactile bonding when possible.
00:32:19Tactile bonding?
00:32:20Yes.
00:32:21It's quite beneficial for fetal development.
00:32:25Come over here and place your hands on her belly.
00:32:27Doctor, is that really appropriate?
00:32:31What's inappropriate about it?
00:32:33This is what husbands do.
00:32:38Okay.
00:32:38I'm sorry, did I hurt you?
00:32:53No, no.
00:32:54It just feels strange.
00:32:57Like this.
00:32:59Top to bottom, left to right, gentle strokes.
00:33:03Got it?
00:33:09Got it.
00:33:10Do this once daily, five to ten minutes each.
00:33:15You can sit up now.
00:33:23So, everything good with the baby?
00:33:26Any special instructions I should know about?
00:33:30Nothing.
00:33:31Nothing, no.
00:33:31The doctor did say that the baby is developing beautifully, and there's nothing to worry about.
00:33:38Good news, then.
00:33:41Before I forget, the Rossi family's daughter is having her birthday celebration next weekend,
00:33:48and we should all attend.
00:33:50The Rossi family?
00:33:52Technically, they're our business rivals, but social niceties must be maintained.
00:33:58And she has had an embarrassing crush on Luca since they were little children.
00:34:04Mom, please.
00:34:06Miss Sofia Rossi has arrived unannounced.
00:34:10She shows up without calling?
00:34:12How gauche.
00:34:14Should we send Ava upstairs?
00:34:16No, no, it's fine.
00:34:16I'm here.
00:34:17We can just...
00:34:18Good evening, Mrs. Mancini.
00:34:23Luca!
00:34:24I came to personally deliver my birthday invitation.
00:34:26Okay.
00:34:31Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:33Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:35Hey, hey, hey.
00:34:35Rossi's family lack of manners ever disappoints me.
00:34:39Luca Mancini, how dare you speak to me like that?
00:34:42Miss Rossi, right?
00:34:44I've heard so much about your family.
00:34:48I'm Ava, Marco's wife.
00:34:51Marco was Luca's brother.
00:34:55Oh, okay.
00:34:57I thought you were carrying Luca's baby.
00:35:00That's good, because Luca's...
00:35:01I came all this way to bring you that, and this is how you welcome me?
00:35:06Don't disappoint me at the party, darling.
00:35:08Wear something sharp.
00:35:12Yes.
00:35:22See if there's any connection between that pregnant woman and Luca.
00:35:25I'm not buying this whole sister-in-law act for one second.
00:35:28You got it.
00:35:34You look so handsome.
00:35:35Well, well, well.
00:35:40It looks like my stubborn son has good taste after all.
00:35:44Luca did an excellent job selecting this gown.
00:35:47It is perfect for you.
00:35:49Luca picked this?
00:35:53I've never been anywhere this fancy before.
00:35:57I might embarrass you guys.
00:35:59Oh, don't even worry about it.
00:36:02You are my pride and joy.
00:36:04Besides, Luca will be with us the whole time, and he'll make sure everything runs smoothly.
00:36:13Luca?
00:36:14What about her shoes?
00:36:15How could you forget something so basic?
00:36:17I can't live in here.
00:36:18I can't live in here.
00:36:19I can't live in here.
00:36:43Right there.
00:36:49No problem.
00:36:51Just don't want you to fall.
00:37:07Who's that with Mr. Mancini?
00:37:09She's clearly pregnant.
00:37:11Do you think that's Mr. Mancini's baby?
00:37:13I had no idea he was even married.
00:37:15Must be his mistress.
00:37:17Oh, shameless.
00:37:18Everyone, I would like to introduce Ava Mancini,
00:37:22my eldest son Marco's wife.
00:37:25Marco's wife?
00:37:26She's stunning.
00:37:30This is my birthday party!
00:37:32I'm supposed to be the center of attention,
00:37:34not some pregnant woman!
00:37:38Maybe we shouldn't cause a scene here.
00:37:40It's fine.
00:37:41She's always like this.
00:37:44We didn't mean to steal your spotlight.
00:37:47An apology simply isn't enough.
00:37:50Since you're Luca's sister-in-law,
00:37:52why don't you entertain us all with a performance of some kind?
00:37:56Look, she used to deliver food for a living.
00:37:59Waitress, retail clerk, cleaning lady?
00:38:02What could someone with her background possibly perform for this crowd?
00:38:05Ava, how does this piece go again?
00:38:19I'm completely lost here.
00:38:21I've forgotten everything that you've told me.
00:38:24There's no way she could actually play.
00:38:26She's just a nobody from nowhere.
00:38:28He has to be setting her up.
00:38:30Even Miss Mancini is smiling.
00:38:32Just waiting for her to crash and burn.
00:38:34I was just playing for the baby.
00:38:43I think he recognized the music you were playing for us earlier.
00:38:47Well, maybe you should teach me sometime properly.
00:38:52I'd like to play for you both.
00:38:53Um, because mom did tell me to look after you, so it's the least that I can do.
00:38:57Okay.
00:38:58Okay.
00:38:59Okay.
00:39:01Okay.
00:39:02You should teach me sometime, properly.
00:39:05I'd like to play for you both.
00:39:10Because Mom did tell me to look after you, so it's the least that I can do.
00:39:32I'd like to play for you both.
00:39:54I'd like to play for you both.
00:39:58They're definitely more than in-laws.
00:40:05Look at the way they play together.
00:40:07If I can't have him, I'll destroy them both.
00:40:17Yeah, I always enjoy these type of events.
00:40:19Me too.
00:40:20That habit's good.
00:40:21From Miss Russell, your accompaniments.
00:40:24Cheers.
00:40:28Sir, that drink is almost certainly drugged.
00:40:31Obviously.
00:40:32Is the Rossi family making a move against us?
00:40:35These tensions have been simmering for years.
00:40:37Should we respond preemptively?
00:40:39Do nothing.
00:40:40You just need to focus on protecting Ava.
00:40:44We'll see what they have planned.
00:40:48Darling, you look tired.
00:40:50I don't think all this excitement is good for your condition.
00:40:52Why don't you try to find Luca and let's get you home.
00:41:05Okay.
00:41:07Sophia's bedroom.
00:41:30Why is Luca's phone in there?
00:41:33And why am I jealous?
00:41:35I've wanted Luca for years, and then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks?
00:41:48You won't look so innocent when everyone sees you in bed next to your dead husband's brother.
00:42:05This isn't exactly how you want it.
00:42:08Not at all.
00:42:09This isn't convincing.
00:42:10Unbutton their clothes.
00:42:19Sal, position them closer together.
00:42:21Make it look more intimate.
00:42:28Perfect.
00:42:29Let's go.
00:42:30Our masterpiece is complete.
00:42:31Now we just have to bring in an audience.
00:42:43I expected much more than just this juvenile prank from my business partner.
00:42:48Ava, wake up.
00:43:01Ava.
00:43:02Ava.
00:43:03Ava.
00:43:04Ava, wake up.
00:43:25That's bad.
00:43:35If anyone sees us like this, they'll immediately assume the worst.
00:43:43Luca, wake up!
00:43:45Okay.
00:43:55People are coming.
00:43:57You're acting like we had some tour de faire.
00:43:59We didn't do anything wrong, so why are you worrying?
00:44:01I'm your late brother's widow, and I'm carrying his child.
00:44:04If anyone sees us like this, the Mancini family name won't be destroyed.
00:44:08Okay.
00:44:10Okay.
00:44:12Oh, so, Mancini name is what you're concerned about, is that it?
00:44:16Hey, hey, hey. You haven't answered me.
00:44:22Thank you all so much for coming today to celebrate me.
00:44:27But I do have some rather important information to share with you all.
00:44:31I have just discovered Luca Mancini in a rather compromising position
00:44:38with his brother's pregnant widow.
00:44:42In my bedroom.
00:44:51Can you let go?
00:44:55They're coming.
00:44:56They're coming.
00:45:01Here, I got this. Watch out.
00:45:02Wait, stop. What?
00:45:03They're right there.
00:45:04If we walk through that door, we'll walk right into their trap.
00:45:07Okay, then what's your brilliant idea? Yes, ma'am?
00:45:10Um, we...
00:45:12Let's go through the window. We can climb down.
00:45:14Whoa, whoa, whoa, no. I'm afraid of heights.
00:45:17Your what?
00:45:20Sorry, I just didn't realize the great Luca Mancini had fears like the rest of us.
00:45:25Yeah, you know, that's one of my fears, and I don't advertise it, so deal with it.
00:45:30What? What the hell's do?
00:45:33Let's go see.
00:45:34Where are these cheaters you promised to expose?
00:45:37Keep it down, you idiot. You don't want to wake them.
00:45:40I mean, we don't want to alert them to give them a chance to escape.
00:45:45They're coming. Let's go.
00:45:47Okay.
00:45:49Hurry, hurry.
00:45:50No, no, no. Don't run. We have to catch them in the act first.
00:45:56Are you insane? Your house is on fire.
00:45:58Who cares about the gossip? Let's get out of here.
00:46:01No, no, no, no. I'll help everyone leave afterwards.
00:46:03But first, let's get a look at them. Come on.
00:46:05Come on.
00:46:27Oh, hi.
00:46:29What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:46:30I am so sorry. It was an accident. Please.
00:46:35Okay? Yeah.
00:46:38The staff prepared everything for you, and there's hot water in there.
00:46:45And what about you?
00:46:47We'll just be out here, taking guard for you.
00:46:51Now go on. It's warm.
00:46:54Thanks.
00:47:05What is it?
00:47:06Uh, Miss Rossi is demanding to see you, sir. She's quite insistent.
00:47:20Okay, let her run.
00:47:21You set off the fire alarms and completely scared away my guests. You've ruined my birthday celebration.
00:47:26Hey!
00:47:27You've ruined my birthday celebration!
00:47:28Hey!
00:47:29You will take full responsibility for what you did.
00:47:30Hey!
00:47:31The drugging, the set-up, all of it.
00:47:32The drugging, the set-up, all of it.
00:47:33The drugging, the set-up, all of it.
00:47:35And if you ever threaten Ava again directly,
00:47:37You'll let her run.
00:47:39off the fire alarms and completely scared away my guests. You've ruined my birthday celebration!
00:47:54Hey! You will take full responsibility for what you did. The drugging, the setup, all of it. And
00:48:01if you ever threaten Ava again, directly or indirectly, I will end the Rossi family. From
00:48:08this city permanently. You're a monster. That's her in there, isn't it? Ava? Your dead brother's wife?
00:48:15How dare you? Get your hands off of me! Do you know who I am?
00:48:21Luka?
00:48:36Luka?
00:48:47Luka, it's me, wake up.
00:48:50Ava, you're so close. Is this a dream?
00:48:52Luka, I'm your brother's wife. So this isn't a dream. Ava, I've had feelings for you for so long.
00:49:10Luka, I've tried to keep them a secret, but I can't keep them any longer. And now you know my two
00:49:19secrets and by family code, I have to silence the person who discovers my weaknesses.
00:49:26Luka, let me go. No, no, no, but I can't silence you because Ava, I have fallen in love with you.
00:49:35That's not funny.
00:49:38Look, I've never been more serious.
00:49:42Ava, every time I come around you, I feel myself slipping. And my feelings have crossed that line months ago.
00:49:50No. Stop, stop, just stop. I'll forget this ever happened.
00:49:57No, no, Ava. I want to take care of you. And the baby. For the rest of my life.
00:50:13Luka, I... Ava.
00:50:20Luka, what's going on? Why isn't Ava home?
00:50:25What's going on here?
00:50:26Mom, I...
00:50:28Nothing. My clothes were dirty, so Luka prepared for me a shower and clean clothes.
00:50:34Oh, thank goodness. The last thing we need is for you to catch pneumonia.
00:50:39Yeah, I know.
00:50:41Ava, I think that we should probably...
00:50:43Luka, it's almost Marco's birthday. Let's visit his grave.
00:50:52He's your brother and my husband. And we don't want to betray his memory.
00:50:58Oh, you poor thing. You must be utterly exhausted.
00:51:02Let's get you home. These Rossis are nothing but trouble. We need to accelerate our plans against them.
00:51:09changing hearts.
00:51:13Changing hearts.
00:51:17Changing hearts.
00:51:20Marco...
00:51:23I miss you.
00:51:27I feel so lost without you.
00:51:29Would you hate me if you knew I had feelings for your brother?
00:51:42Ava, are you in there?
00:51:51Ava, are you there?
00:51:54I meant everything that I said today.
00:51:56And I want to help you get through this, and I want to protect you.
00:52:02Marco and Mom, they would both understand.
00:52:07Ava, I love you.
00:52:23I understand how difficult this is.
00:52:26And your loyalty for Marco, and your concern for my mother, that is the compassion that,
00:52:32that's the reason I fell in love with you.
00:52:39There's 30 million dollars on this credit card, and the pin number is your birthday.
00:52:44I've been through epsom flows, our last goodbye felt like the end.
00:52:49Can't deny, I can't pretend, that this fire burns again.
00:52:56Illuminating rain.
00:52:59I feel alive, one more time our worlds collide.
00:53:04Watch them circling in the sky, we are magnetic sides.
00:53:10I'm falling in love with you, no one loves me like you do.
00:53:16The baby's development is right on track.
00:53:29Perfect, actually.
00:53:32Has your husband been doing those tactile bonding exercises I showed you?
00:53:36Doctor, uh, actually, he's not exactly my-
00:53:40Oh, no need to be embarrassed.
00:53:42The way that man looks at you is something special.
00:53:46Now face each other, Helena, take her hands, deep inhale, and lean into each other,
00:53:59using each other's weight to support you.
00:54:03Come up.
00:54:08On the exhale, do a gentle squat.
00:54:12And then share, and embrace.
00:54:22You have anything?
00:54:28Who exactly are you welcoming home, dear daughter-in-law?
00:54:33I was just talking nonsense.
00:54:35Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:54:42I'll get it.
00:54:51Miss, flowers from Mr. Mancini.
00:55:12I wonder if he's doing well out there.
00:55:29I like the nervous look on your face when you're starting to think that you're talking too much.
00:55:34I like how we just met, and I'm not even slightly afraid to be opening up.
00:55:44Hello?
00:55:45Ava?
00:55:46I'm outside at the gate.
00:55:48Security won't let me in.
00:55:55Mom, what are you doing here?
00:55:56I missed you terribly, sweetheart.
00:55:58I just wanted to check on you and the baby.
00:56:05Look.
00:56:07Fresh oranges.
00:56:08Just pick today.
00:56:10You need the vitamin C for the baby's development.
00:56:12I'm on a very carefully monitored diet.
00:56:16You wasted a trip.
00:56:17Look, I know that you haven't forgiven me, but you have to understand.
00:56:26Derek and Sarah, I mean, they would have thrown me out on the street if I didn't go along with them.
00:56:32I mean, what choice did I have?
00:56:36That's not rehash the past.
00:56:38Of course.
00:56:38I picked these up for my grandchild.
00:56:42Aren't they precious?
00:56:45That baby that you're carrying is my family, too.
00:56:50I love them so much already.
00:56:53Look, I stood up for you to Derek, and he threw me out.
00:56:58I had absolutely nothing left.
00:56:59I have absolutely nothing left.
00:57:08This card contains all the money I've saved.
00:57:12It's yours.
00:57:13But you have to promise me that you'll use it for yourself.
00:57:16Not a penny goes to Derek.
00:57:18Okay.
00:57:19I swear it.
00:57:20Not a cent to him.
00:57:22How much money are we talking about?
00:57:24$10,000.
00:57:27$10,000?
00:57:29That's it.
00:57:30You're carrying the Mancini air, and all they've given you is $10,000.
00:57:35That is my personal savings.
00:57:37I haven't asked the Mancini's for a cent.
00:57:40Okay, this is completely unacceptable.
00:57:45Everyone in this city knows that the Mancini's are loaded beyond belief.
00:57:49Come on.
00:57:50You need to milk this situation for all it's worth.
00:57:58Honey, I'm...
00:58:00I'm only thinking about your future and your security.
00:58:06I mean, what happens if they throw you out once the baby arrives?
00:58:10I didn't marry into the Mancini family for their fortune.
00:58:15And you mention their money one more time, you'll never see me again.
00:58:19Understand?
00:58:20I understand, sweetheart.
00:58:22Mom won't say another word about it.
00:58:29Psst.
00:58:30$10,000?
00:58:31That's it?
00:58:32That's pocket change for them!
00:58:34She must be holding down on us.
00:58:38That ungrateful little brat!
00:58:41I tried everything!
00:58:43I couldn't squeeze another penny out of her.
00:58:45She's swimming in Mancini money, and we're here struggling.
00:58:48After what they did to my leg, I should be getting millions!
00:58:51Yes!
00:58:52A few million?
00:58:53It's just the beginning.
00:58:55We've been thinking too small.
00:58:57I have good reason to believe that we have a common enemy.
00:59:11I think we should work together.
00:59:13Miss Mancini has been sleeping well, sir.
00:59:21She got the prenatal vitamins you sent her, and they effectively reduced her morning sickness.
00:59:26And this morning, she ate half a slice of French toast, a half portion of scrambled eggs,
00:59:32two cherry tomatoes, and a glass of milk.
00:59:34And after some gentle persuasion from your mother, she also had a piece of steak for the iron content.
00:59:40Looks good to hear that she's eating healthy.
00:59:42And then she finally attended the prenatal concert we arranged,
00:59:46and afterwards she spoke with one of the pianists about the compositions.
00:59:50Is it man or woman?
00:59:51Sir, per your instructions, they were all talented women.
00:59:54No exceptions.
00:59:56And she actually mentioned you today.
00:59:59While making hot chocolate, she said to the chef,
01:00:02it's never quite as good as Lucas.
01:00:04She always knows what to say.
01:00:08I'll make her a batch right now, and we can have it delivered.
01:00:10Great. I'll arrange your private courier right away.
01:00:19Luca is almost finished with his business.
01:00:22Hopefully, he will make it home in time for the birth.
01:00:24Mrs. Mancini, it's terrible news.
01:00:29Luca's jet has been destroyed amid a flight.
01:00:30He... he's missing.
01:00:32What?
01:00:33I want every detail immediately.
01:00:35Yes, ma'am.
01:00:38Ava, breathe.
01:00:39Breathe.
01:00:40Don't panic.
01:00:41Don't panic.
01:00:41Luca has always been lucky.
01:00:43He's going to be fine.
01:00:44He will.
01:00:45Hello?
01:00:50Hello?
01:00:51I have Luca Mancini.
01:00:53Twenty million dollars cash for his safe return.
01:00:55No police, no family, no security team.
01:01:00You come alone, or he dies.
01:01:02You have 24 hours.
01:01:06Who?
01:01:08Oh, Ava, are you okay?
01:01:10Who was that?
01:01:11It's nothing, nothing.
01:01:13I...
01:01:13I'm just dizzy.
01:01:15The... the baby.
01:01:17So I'm going to go upstairs and lie down.
01:01:20Oh, my God.
01:01:23Here.

01:01:52You okay?
01:01:56Derek.
01:01:58Where's Luca?
01:02:00Where's Luca?
01:02:01Don't worry about Luca.
01:02:03Worry about yourself.
01:02:04No.
01:02:05No.
01:02:05No.

01:11:45Want something to eat?
01:11:47Okay!
01:11:48Okay!
01:11:48I thought this hospital was the best that money can buy.
01:11:56I guess I was misinformed.
01:11:58Luca, they're doing the best they can.
01:12:02Let's not terrorize the staff.
01:12:06Luca, I just don't want to see you in any more pain.
01:12:10You would tear me apart.
01:12:11Luca, remember to control yourself, son.
01:12:24Let her recover first.
01:12:27And have you decided what to name this little prince?
01:12:42Marco.
01:12:44Marco.
01:12:45I want to name him Marco.
01:12:46Look, little one.
01:13:11It's your daddy.
01:13:14Your real daddy.
01:13:16It's remarkable how much he looks like.
01:13:23Marco.
01:13:25I thought you had all the answers.
01:13:28And that you handle everything.
01:13:31And I promise to protect mom.
01:13:35The business.
01:13:37And your family.
01:13:41Our family.
01:13:45You know Marco used to say,
01:13:46that if you wanted to think about somebody,
01:13:50you would watch the dandelion.
01:13:52And if the seeds blew out easily,
01:13:54then they were thinking of you too.
01:13:55I hear you on the radio.
01:14:00I hear you on the radio.
01:14:02On the radio.
01:14:04Miss.
01:14:04Miss.
01:14:09Mrs. Mancini's wedding gifts,
01:14:25the finest villas,
01:14:27the Mancini family jewelry,
01:14:29And finally, 30% ownership of Mancini group holdings, effective immediately.
01:14:41This ring has been in the Mancini family for seven generations.
01:14:48Passed from mother to daughter-in-law.
01:14:55Thank you, Mama.
01:14:59A perfect fit.
01:15:15Now, I need the two of you to focus on your top priority.
01:15:21Um, top priority?
01:15:23Giving me a granddaughter to play with little Marco Jr.
01:15:29We're at a church, and they're witnesses.
