Transcript
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 Luca 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.
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 hurt you.
00:00:49I guess my brother had good reason to fall for her.
00:00:56Ava, you're so close.
00:01:00Is this a dream?
00:01:02If anyone sees us like this, they'll immediately assume the worst.
00:01:08Ava, 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, dear.
00:01:36I never even got to say goodbye.
00:01:38Marco, my brother.
00:01:40I 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.
00:01:56I didn't mean to retreat.
00:01:57Luca, look at her.
00:01:59She's hardly a threat.
00:02:07For the flowers.
00:02:09And for the interruption.
00:02:11My apologies.
00:02:13Senor Mancini,
00:02:24Master 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,
00:02:34where 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.
00:02:55Family Jinx is finally six feet under.
00:02:57Derek, have you lost your mind?
00:03:07What the hell was that?
00:03:10Don't tell me that you're actually planning on keeping that little parasite.
00:03:14This is Marco's baby.
00:03:16This is our child.
00:03:18Of course I'm keeping it.
00:03:20Ever since you got knocked up,
00:03:22you've done nothing to help this family.
00:03:24Emily, we've been struggling while you've been out here playing the grieving widow.
00:03:29Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.
00:03:35Because you owe me.
00:03:38This is your fault.
00:03:41I dropped out of college for this family.
00:03:43I took five jobs.
00:03:44What more could you possibly want?
00:03:45You'll never be enough, Ava.
00:03:47You'll owe us to 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.
00:04:02So he can say hello to his deadbeat dad.
00:04:08Hex!
00:04:23What the hell is going on here?
00:04:28Who the hell are you people?
00:04:31Ava, right?
00:04:33You were here this morning.
00:04:35Enough, Luca.
00:04:37She's hardly up there.
00:04:41Ma'am?
00:04:42I'm Helena Mancini, Marco's mother.
00:04:48That means I'm your baby's grandmother.
00:04:52The most powerful mafia family in the country.
00:04:57Marco was my oldest.
00:04:59He was my golden boy.
00:05:00I am so sorry that he concealed his identity from you.
00:05:05You have endured far too much suffering because of it.
00:05:10Plain make-believe, Mancini?
00:05:15Seriously, like 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 one.
00:05:24Permanently.
00:05:27What are you doing?
00:05:28Derek, run!
00:05:30Maybe we should just go.
00:05:32One moment, dear.
00:05:35Anyone who raises a hand to my daughter-in-law deserves to have their fingers snapped.
00:05:42One.
00:05:44By.
00:05:45One.
00:05:47Come along, my dear.
00:05:49Let's get you home.
00:05:50To your real home.
00:06:15Welcome home, Senora Eva Mancini.
00:06:17This is where Marco lives.
00:06:22And now, it's your Mancini.
00:06:30Allow me to introduce you to your personal staff, Mrs. Mancini.
00:06:34Your nutritionist, nanny, maternity nurse, each the finest specialist money can acquire.
00:06:39We pledge your absolute dedication to your health and well-being, Senora.
00:06:42Your days of working multiple jobs are over, my dear.
00:06:49Ten million dollars is a little spending money.
00:06:52Well, thank you.
00:06:55Well, thank you, but I can't accept this.
00:07:00Thank you, but I can't accept this.
00:07:02I married Marco for love, not for his fortune.
00:07:07Practical and principled, my Marco truly had an eye for quality.
00:07:13There is one more member of the family that you need to properly meet.
00:07:18That would be Luca, Marco's younger brother.
00:07:20The brooding iceberg that you encountered this morning.
00:07:24Well, well, well.
00:07:26It's a flower girl in the cemetery.
00:07:29Luca!
00:07:31Come meet Eva, your brother's wife.
00:07:34Please, show her proper...
00:07:38Respect!
00:07:39You walk back into a Mancini household?
00:07:44You're either incredibly stupid or incredibly brave.
00:07:48Luca! Open this door immediately!
00:07:52Everyone around back, now!
00:07:57Who are you, really?
00:07:59Who are you, really?
00:08:02I'll be watching your every move, your every breath.
00:08:07So tell me...
00:08:09Who are you, really?
00:08:12My brother's dead, and you appear suddenly?
00:08:15Was this your endgame all along? Our fortune?
00:08:19I didn't know Marco's a Mancini.
00:08:21And now?
00:08:22I don't need this!
00:08:23I can walk right out those doors!
00:08:24You can't walk anywhere!
00:08:25He's not going anywhere!
00:08:30And get your hands off of her!
00:08:33She is carrying Marco's child.
00:08:35Oh, is she?
00:08:37How do we even know it is Marco's child?
00:08:39Convenient timing, wouldn't you say?
00:08:44Question me on you, Luca.
00:08:45Don't you dare question my child.
00:08:48That's my girl!
00:08:50Backbone of steel.
00:08:52Are you hurt?
00:08:55Luca! You are too rude!
00:08:56Ava is a good girl!
00:08:58You are falsely accusing her!
00:09:01Come on, sweetie.
00:09:02Mom's gonna take you and get some clothes.
00:09:04Pay no attention to this fool.
00:09:09You may be fooling them,
00:09:11but I will find out about you and I will expose you.
00:09:13These are all the latest European styles.
00:09:32Take your pick.
00:09:34I have plenty to wear.
00:09:35And these are much too expensive.
00:09:37Oh, not to worry.
00:09:39It's all on Luca's card.
00:09:40Treat my dear daughter-in-law well.
00:09:42Treat my dear daughter-in-law well.
00:09:431
00:09:481
00:09:512
00:10:003
00:10:013
00:10:024
00:10:034
00:10:045
00:10:06Open and honest
00:10:07This weight on my chest
00:10:10I don't want it
00:10:11I'd hate to be breaking
00:10:14I promise
00:10:15Cause I owe you the truth
00:10:18Oh, isn't she gorgeous?
00:10:25She's
00:10:26Adequate
00:10:27Always the tough guy act with you
00:10:32Your eyes tell a different story
00:10:34My son
00:10:35Oh yes, this is just perfect
00:10:38We will take one
00:10:40Of everything in her size
00:10:42Mom
00:10:44Mom
00:10:46That's too generous
00:10:49Nonsense
00:10:50We're family now
00:10:51I am putting Luca's
00:10:54Contact info into your phone
00:10:56Reach out to him
00:10:58Whatever you need
00:10:59And don't worry
00:11:01He's actually quite a softie
00:11:04Now
00:11:05Shall we continue shopping?
00:11:07Yes
00:11:07Sir?
00:11:12Yes
00:11:12Your mother has spent approximately
00:11:15Fifteen million dollars
00:11:17On Miss Jackson
00:11:18In the last week alone
00:11:19God
00:11:20In mere days
00:11:21She has swooned the dollar family
00:11:22Out of millions of dollars
00:11:24She's clearly not an amateur
00:11:26She's also been spending
00:11:28A substantial amount
00:11:29Since marrying your brother
00:11:31To pay off her brother's debts
00:11:32I want everything on her
00:11:35Everything
00:11:36If she is playing us for fools
00:11:38Then I will personally ensure
00:11:41That she regrets
00:11:41Ever hearing the name
00:11:42Manchino
00:11:43I'm sorry ma'am
00:11:52I hate to put extra stress
00:11:55On your shoulders
00:11:55But we need to discuss
00:11:57The incredible cost
00:11:59Of your husband's care
00:12:00And how the bill will be paid
00:12:02Limited edition
00:12:04Is perfect
00:12:05For you
00:12:06Marco
00:12:10You just focus on getting better
00:12:13Okay
00:12:13Don't worry
00:12:15Out the bills
00:12:15I've got it covered
00:12:17Your brother married Miss Jackson
00:12:26Under false pretenses
00:12:27She worked several jobs
00:12:29To make that money
00:12:30And when your brother got sick
00:12:32She worked to pay off
00:12:33His medical bills
00:12:34And then day and night
00:12:35For his funeral
00:12:36Did I get her all wrong?
00:12:51Hello?
00:12:52Mother is unwell
00:12:53You need to return home immediately
00:12:54What's wrong with mom?
00:12:59Is she hurt?
00:13:04Mom?
00:13:06What's going on?
00:13:12Ava
00:13:12Please don't be angry
00:13:15We just had to get you here
00:13:17What are you doing?
00:13:23Since you won't help us financially
00:13:25We had to find another solution
00:13:27Victor Fang
00:13:28That old loan shark's willing to give us
00:13:30$80,000 just to marry you
00:13:32Are you insane?
00:13:40I'm pregnant
00:13:41Your husband's dead, Ava
00:13:43Why keep his baby?
00:13:45Think about your family
00:13:45Mr. Fang is waiting
00:13:47Don't make this harder
00:13:49Than it needs to be
00:13:50You are not selling me off
00:13:53To Victor Fang
00:13:54If she dies
00:13:57How will you survive for this child?
00:14:02She's calling someone
00:14:03Hello?
00:14:12Ava's in danger
00:14:18We need to move
00:14:19Go, go, go
00:14:19You think someone's coming to save you?
00:14:40Who dares manhandle my future bride?
00:14:49Mr. Fang
00:14:49Oh, it's such a pleasure
00:14:51This is Ava, my sister, who we discussed
00:14:54Ooh, two for the price of one, I see
00:14:57Oh, it's just some dead guy's kid
00:14:59If you want, I can take care of it right now
00:15:02We could offer you a discount
00:15:03And I think $60,000 is not unfair
00:15:05Pennies for somebody of your wealth
00:15:07Derek, you're sick
00:15:09I'm your sister, this is your nephew
00:15:11My son's future is more important to me
00:15:14Than that stupid little bastard of yours
00:15:16Hey, hey
00:15:17No need to be so rough with such a beautiful lady
00:15:20Now, dear
00:15:22Just take this right here
00:15:25And it'll make things easier for everybody
00:15:27Oh, okay
00:15:30You're a little feisty, I see
00:15:32Maybe you just need a little personal attention
00:15:37Maybe you just need a little personal attention
00:16:02Get out of my way
00:16:03I always knew Ava was trouble
00:16:04Her husband's barely cold and she already hasn't done it yet
00:16:07Who the hell do you think you are?
00:16:11I'm looking at Mancini
00:16:14Mancini, you idiot
00:16:17You killed me
00:16:18How did my sister get caught up with the likes of you?
00:16:21Ava is my brother's widow
00:16:23And her baby is his only child
00:16:26So it's true?
00:16:28Her baby is the heir to the Mancini family?
00:16:31Looks like your wife is pregnant too
00:16:33Yes, yes, yes, it's true
00:16:35I swear
00:16:36We didn't know
00:16:37Please, please
00:16:38You will be dealt with
00:16:39Penfully
00:16:41What you did to Ava
00:16:43Get a doctor
00:16:46Get a doctor
00:16:47Get a car
00:16:48And deal with them
00:16:49And deal with them
00:17:19Mom, hey.
00:17:28How's Ava? How's the baby?
00:17:31The doctors are examining her now.
00:17:37Doctor, how is she?
00:17:38Mr. Mancini has a severe ankle fracture that it needs immediate surgery.
00:17:42The medication could cause a miscarriage, so we need to have consent before we can proceed.
00:17:49Do it, whatever it takes.
00:17:51No!
00:17:54Doctor, is there any way to do the surgery without anesthesia?
00:17:58That's not medically advisable. The pain would be too excruciating.
00:18:02This baby is Marco's only child, his only heir.
00:18:09I can't risk losing it.
00:18:11I can handle the pain.
00:18:14Oh, my brave girl.
00:18:16God bless you.
00:18:18You know, I think somebody should be with her during the operation.
00:18:22The pain would be just too intense.
00:18:25I'll stay with her.
00:18:26How'd it go, doctor?
00:18:50It's a success.
00:18:53You're a real trooper, if you don't mind me saying.
00:18:57I guess my brother had good reason to fall for her.
00:18:59Senora Ava, please, let me help you.
00:19:25Okay, right this way, all right.
00:19:29I know your stay at the hospital could not have been easy for you.
00:19:35That's why I'm having 30% of Mancini Group shares put into your name.
00:19:41No.
00:19:42Mom, I cannot accept that.
00:19:46We're family.
00:19:48It's what you deserve.
00:19:49Actually, I've been thinking about doing something else.
00:19:54I'd like to go back to work.
00:19:57Work?
00:19:58But, but, you're pregnant.
00:20:00Oh, honey, if you need money, I'll just transfer some into your account.
00:20:03No, no, it's not about money.
00:20:05Marco always said that we should make our own way.
00:20:11And I want our child to know his father and know what he valued.
00:20:18You are as stubborn as he was.
00:20:23Look, you're going to need protection.
00:20:26You'll accompany her.
00:20:27No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:20:31I can manage on my own.
00:20:36In the morning, 10 a.m., I'll be at the entrance.
00:20:39You know that I can talk to your manager for you.
00:20:50Make sure that they accommodate every need.
00:20:52No need.
00:20:53I don't want any special treatments.
00:20:56But thank you for that ride.
00:21:00No, Ava.
00:21:01You do not need to be afraid of me.
00:21:03I can help you whenever you need.
00:21:06Why is she even back?
00:21:26That pregnant belly ruins a sore's aesthetic.
00:21:28These pregnant women know exactly what they're doing.
00:21:31Hiding behind maternity protections.
00:21:34We can't legally fire her.
00:21:36Could you reassign her to the warehouse?
00:21:38Maybe move some stock around?
00:21:40And if something happens to her or the baby, you want that liability?
00:21:42We can't fire her, but we certainly can make her life difficult enough that she decides to quit on her own.
00:21:51And that concludes our quarterly revenue projections.
00:22:13Sir, forgive my directness, but are we here because you're concerned about your sister-in-law?
00:22:28Should I have the car brought around for your next meeting?
00:22:32Cancel the meeting?
00:22:37I've been meaning to talk to you.
00:22:39Given your, um, condition.
00:22:41I've been worried about potential liability issues.
00:22:45My pregnancy will not affect my performance.
00:22:48I do not intend to take advantage of company policy.
00:22:51Oh, I'm glad to hear that.
00:22:54Then you won't mind proving your commitment.
00:22:57Sell one million dollars worth of merchandise by today.
00:23:00And I'll put all of my concerns to rest.
00:23:03I've seen your sales record.
00:23:05I know you can do it.
00:23:06I've seen your mistakes.
00:23:13You need to leave.
00:23:14I answer the phone in favor and see if I go to 꺾.
00:23:18I know you don't care for me.
00:23:20I have seen my Secretztar.
00:23:23I know you don't care for me.
00:23:24I know you don't care for me.
00:23:26And I can't believe in my name.
00:23:28I know you don't care for me anymore.
00:23:30Sir, half an hour until closing and Mrs. Mancini has already surpassed the store's average
00:23:52monthly sales in a single day, but she's still a great deal short of the manager's impossible
00:23:58target.
00:24:02She did make it clear that she doesn't want any special treatment, but I have been neglecting
00:24:07my own wardrobe.
00:24:08And the Rossi family event will require several new suits.
00:24:12Now that you mention it, sir, your formal collection is missing quite a few essential items.
00:24:17And I should do some personal shopping, shouldn't I?
00:24:21Sir, may I assist you?
00:24:27Sir, this limited edition silk tie would go perfect with your complexion.
00:24:31Sir, I'd be happy to take your measurements, personally.
00:24:34Sir, as store manager, I would be honored to assist you with your needs myself.
00:24:40I'd actually like Miss Jackson to assist me.
00:24:43I hear her taste in men's fashion is exceptional.
00:24:46Shall we begin?
00:24:48Right this way, sir.
00:24:52All right, just need to take your measurements.
00:25:03Whoa, what are you doing?
00:25:05You measure what?
00:25:08I just needed you to take the jacket off.
00:25:10Well, we don't have much time.
00:25:14I know.
00:25:24Now, imagine me like this.
00:25:31Okay.
00:25:32Mm-hmm.
00:25:33Yes.
00:25:34Ava, time is almost up.
00:25:57I did it!
00:26:16I saved my job, and I made a new sales record.
00:26:22There's no reason to thank me.
00:26:24I'm here to help, whenever you need it.
00:26:27I hate to do this, but Ava Jackson, you're fired.
00:26:35What?
00:26:37No.
00:26:38I met your target, and then some.
00:26:40Oh.
00:26:41That last sale?
00:26:42The one that put you over the top?
00:26:44That was actually mine.
00:26:46You're trying to steal my commission?
00:26:48Well, that won't work, because everyone in this store saw me make that sale.
00:26:57I get it.
00:26:58You threatened them into silence.
00:27:00Well, that won't work either, because the security cameras caught everything.
00:27:05Security cameras?
00:27:07What horrible timing.
00:27:16Unfortunately, the security cameras are down for maintenance today.
00:27:20But fortunately, everyone here saw you destroy thousands of dollars worth of merchandise.
00:27:26You all saw Ava, didn't you?
00:27:28Yeah, we all saw it.
00:27:31So someone should call security.
00:27:33Better yet, call the police.
00:27:35I'm sorry, sir, but we're closed for the day.
00:27:46I heard that this store got trashed.
00:27:48I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to call the police.
00:27:51The police work for me.
00:27:53Are you Luca Mancini?
00:28:00Sorry.
00:28:01Sorry?
00:28:05No.
00:28:06No.
00:28:08No.
00:28:10No.
00:28:11No.
00:28:12No.
00:28:13No.
00:28:14No.
00:28:15No.
00:28:16No.
00:28:17No.
00:28:18No.
00:28:19No.
00:28:20No.
00:28:21No.
00:28:22No.
00:28:22No.
00:28:23Please stop, I admit it, I was wrong.
00:28:52Who really damaged the merchandise in this story?
00:28:54The items that you destroyed are worth over several millions of dollars at five years of prison.
00:29:03Look what happened.
00:29:05There's nothing more talking about, we need to go.
00:29:06And by the way, you're fired.
00:29:09Let's go.
00:29:10Mom, could you do it?
00:29:15Uchidero, questa sronza.
00:29:17How dare that woman mess with my family.
00:29:20I will make sure, personally, that she suffers for it.
00:29:25You don't have to worry about that anymore.
00:29:27It's all taken care of, thanks to Luca.
00:29:30This door looked like a tornado hit it.
00:29:32Man who will be serving time in a jail cell.
00:29:35Justice is served.
00:29:36That's my boy.
00:29:37Sweetheart, I would like you to concentrate full-time on your pregnancy right now.
00:29:46All of this work drama can wait until after my grandchild is born safely.
00:29:51Yes, Mom.
00:29:52I transferred five million dollars into your personal account for prenatal care.
00:29:57I am worried about the baby's well-being.
00:30:01Luca, I'd like you to take her to the doctor tomorrow for an exam.
00:30:06No, that's really not necessary.
00:30:09I have those meetings in Europe, so possibly I could have some more substitute in it for me.
00:30:16Yeah, and I'm perfectly capable of going by myself.
00:30:20I don't want to travel, Luca, with something so routine.
00:30:26It's decided.
00:30:28Cancel whatever meetings you have.
00:30:30I want you to take her.
00:30:32I will not stand for any more incidents.
00:30:35Yes, Mother.
00:30:49Ava Jackson, we're ready for you now.
00:30:52Dad should come too.
00:30:54We encourage partner participation.
00:30:57Oh, no, he's not.
00:30:58Would you prefer that I explain that I'm your dead husband's brother?
00:31:05That might be a bit awkward.
00:31:07Mr. and Mrs. Jackson, please come in when you're ready.
00:31:09Coming.
00:31:17If you could lift your top up slightly and lower your skirt band just a bit, we'll get started.
00:31:22First prenatal checkup together, I'm guessing.
00:31:37The baby looks perfectly healthy.
00:31:41Current length is about three inches with a strong heart rate.
00:31:46Is the baby moving?
00:31:47Yes, indeed.
00:31:49Look there.
00:31:51The little one's making faces.
00:31:55Quite the expressive child already.
00:32:02Dad, don't you want to come take a look?
00:32:05Oh.
00:32:10The baby's at 18 weeks, now developing beautifully.
00:32:15For home care, I recommend plenty of rest, nutrient-rich foods, and tactile bonding when possible.
00:32:25Tactile bonding?
00:32:26Yes.
00:32:27It's quite beneficial for fetal development.
00:32:30Come over here and place your hands on her belly.
00:32:34Doctor, is that really appropriate?
00:32:37What's inappropriate about it?
00:32:39This is what husbands do.
00:32:40I'm sorry, did I hurt you?
00:32:59No, no.
00:33:00It just feels strange.
00:33:03Like this.
00:33:05Top to bottom.
00:33:07Left to right.
00:33:08Gentle strokes.
00:33:13Got it?
00:33:14Got it.
00:33:16Do this once daily, five to ten minutes each.
00:33:21You can sit up now.
00:33:23So, everything good with the baby?
00:33:32Any special instructions I should know about?
00:33:36Nothing.
00:33:36Nothing, no.
00:33:38The doctor did say that the baby is developing beautifully, and there's nothing to worry about.
00:33:44Good news, then.
00:33:45Before I forget, the Rossi family's daughter is having her birthday celebration next weekend, and we should all attend.
00:33:56The Rossi family?
00:33:57Technically, they're our business rivals, but social niceties must be maintained.
00:34:04And she has had an embarrassing crush on Luca since they were little children.
00:34:10Mom, please.
00:34:12Miss Sofia Rossi has arrived unannounced.
00:34:16She shows up without calling?
00:34:18How gauche.
00:34:20Should we send Eva upstairs?
00:34:21No, no, it's fine.
00:34:22I'm here.
00:34:23We can just...
00:34:24Good evening, Mrs. Mancini.
00:34:29Luca!
00:34:30I came to personally deliver my birthday invitation.
00:34:32Okay.
00:34:37Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:39Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:41Hey, hey, hey.
00:34:41Rossi's family lack of manners ever disappoints me.
00:34:46Luca Mancini, how dare you speak to me like that?
00:34:48Miss Rossi, right?
00:34:50I've heard so much about your family.
00:34:54I'm Eva, Marco's wife.
00:34:57Marco was Luca's brother.
00:35:01Oh, okay.
00:35:03I thought you were carrying Luca's baby.
00:35:06That's good, because Luca's life.
00:35:08I came all this way to bring you that, and this is how you welcome me?
00:35:12Don't disappoint me at the party, darling.
00:35:14Or something sharp.
00:35:18Yes.
00:35:18See if there's any connection between that pregnant woman and Luca.
00:35:31I'm not buying this whole sister-in-law act for one second.
00:35:34You got it.
00:35:40You look so handsome.
00:35:44Well, well, well.
00:35:46It looks like my stubborn son has good taste after all.
00:35:50Luca did an excellent job selecting this gown.
00:35:53It is perfect for you.
00:35:55Luca picked this?
00:35:58I've never been anywhere this fancy before.
00:36:03I might embarrass you guys.
00:36:05Oh, don't even worry about it.
00:36:08You are my pride and joy.
00:36:10Besides, Luca will be with us the whole time, and he'll make sure everything runs smoothly.
00:36:18Luca?
00:36:19What about her shoes?
00:36:21How could you forget something so basic?
00:36:23How could you forget something so basic?
00:36:23I can't.
00:36:51Right there.
00:36:56No problem. Just don't want you to fall.
00:37:14Who's that with Mr. Mancini?
00:37:16She's clearly pregnant. Do you think that's Mr. Mancini's baby?
00:37:20I had no idea he was even married. Must be his mistress.
00:37:24Sure is. Everyone, I would like to introduce
00:37:28Ava Mancini, my eldest son Marco's wife.
00:37:32Marco's wife? She's stunning.
00:37:36This is my birthday party! I'm supposed to be
00:37:40the center of attention, not some pregnant woman!
00:37:44Maybe we shouldn't cross a scene here. It's fine.
00:37:48She's almost like this.
00:37:50We didn't mean to steal your spotlight.
00:37:54An apology simply isn't enough.
00:37:56Since you're Luca's sister-in-law,
00:37:58why don't you entertain us all with a performance of some kind?
00:38:02Look, she used to deliver food for a living.
00:38:06Waitress, retail clerk, cleaning lady?
00:38:08Cleaning lady? What could someone with her background possibly perform for this grab?
00:38:12Ava, how does this piece go again?
00:38:26I'm completely lost here. I've forgotten everything that you've told me.
00:38:30There's no way she could actually play.
00:38:32She's just a nobody from nowhere.
00:38:34He has to be setting her own.
00:38:36Even Miss Mancini is smiling.
00:38:38Just waiting for her to crash and burn.
00:38:40I was just playing for the baby.
00:38:46I think he recognized the music you were playing for us earlier.
00:38:52Well, maybe you should teach me sometime properly.
00:38:56I'd like to play for you both.
00:38:58Because mom did tell me to look after you, so it's the least that I can do.
00:39:02I'm just kidding.
00:39:04I'm just kidding.
00:39:06I'm just kidding.
00:39:08I'm just kidding.
00:39:10I'm just kidding.
00:39:12I'm just kidding.
00:39:14I'm just kidding.
00:39:16I'm just kidding.
00:39:18I'm just kidding.
00:39:20It's the least that I can do.
00:39:22Okay.
00:39:30I'm just kidding.
00:39:32One chair and there.
00:39:50They're definitely more than in-laws.
00:40:12Look at the way they play together.
00:40:13If I can't have him, I'll destroy them both.
00:40:20Yeah, I always enjoy these type of events.
00:40:25Me too.
00:40:26That's how it's good.
00:40:27From Miss Rossi.
00:40:29Your accompanist.
00:40:30Cheers.
00:40:31Sir, that drink is almost certainly drugged.
00:40:38Obviously.
00:40:39Is the Rossi family making a move against us?
00:40:41These tensions have been simmering for years.
00:40:44Should we respond preemptively?
00:40:46Do nothing.
00:40:51You just need to focus on protecting Ava.
00:40:54We'll see what they have planned.
00:41:00Darling, you look tired.
00:41:04I don't think all this excitement is good for your condition.
00:41:07Why don't you try to find Luca and let's get you home.
00:41:14Sophia's bedroom.
00:41:36Why is Luca's phone in there?
00:41:40And why am I jealous?
00:41:42I've wanted Luca for years.
00:42:00And then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks?
00:42:03You won't look so innocent when everyone sees you in bed next to your dead husband's mother.
00:42:12This isn't exactly how you wanted it.
00:42:15Not at all.
00:42:16This isn't convincing.
00:42:17Unbutton their clothes.
00:42:26Sal, position them closer together.
00:42:27Make it look more intimate.
00:42:29Perfect.
00:42:34Let's go.
00:42:35Our masterpiece is complete.
00:42:37Now we just have to bring in an audience.
00:42:49I expected much more than just this juvenile prank from my business partner.
00:42:53Ava, wake up.
00:43:06Ava.
00:43:07Ava.
00:43:08Ava.

00:59:54and after some gentle persuasion from your mother she also had a piece of steak for the iron content

01:05:13Wait!
01:05:18Hey, make them stop!
01:05:20He's your brother!
01:05:22You'll kill him!
01:05:23You just told me I'm an orphan, so he's not really my little brother.
01:05:26You better tell me who your accomplices are, or he stops breathing.
01:05:30You two should be ashamed of yourselves.
01:05:33Can I see the way that you look at each other?
01:05:35He's your dead husband's brother!
01:05:38You're betraying Marco and his mother!
01:05:43Are you alright? Hey, hey, hey, you okay?
01:05:46Yeah, yeah.
01:05:47Your mom has been so kind to me, and I dragged her into this mess.
01:05:52It's all my fault.
01:05:54Your mother-in-law took you in.
01:05:56She treated you like a daughter.
01:05:58She gave you everything that you could ever want,
01:06:00and this is how you repay her?
01:06:02By falling for her younger son?
01:06:04Have you already forgotten Marco and his grave?
01:06:08What is wrong with you?
01:06:10I want her as my daughter-in-law.
01:06:15First my eldest son's wife, and now my youngest.
01:06:20Objective then, and you'll lose your tongue.
01:06:25You couldn't have Luca, so you decided to try and kill him?
01:06:42Good thing he changed his flight plan at the last minute, huh?
01:06:46Cross the Mancini's, and you cease to exist.
01:06:50Release me!
01:06:52My father will burn your empire to the ground!
01:06:55Don't you wonder why my son was gone all that time?
01:07:02Your family's power...
01:07:07Already gone.
01:07:09You two have risked everything to be together.
01:07:26I can see that Luca's devotion is absolute.
01:07:32You have endured far too much pain.
01:07:37It's time to let him take care of you.
01:07:39But...
01:07:41Marco...
01:07:42I made a promise to him.
01:07:44And Marco would want your happiness above all else.
01:07:51He will rest easier, knowing that we are protecting you and your child.
01:07:58From this moment forward, I swear to you, nobody will ever hurt you again.
01:08:07Luca, you're bleeding.
01:08:12You gotta keep this clean.
01:08:17Yeah.
01:08:18Infections can get nasty.
01:08:21Okay.
01:08:23So you're saying that you care about me then?
01:08:26Shut up.
01:08:28Of course I care.
01:08:33Alright.
01:08:34Wait.
01:08:36I think he likes you.
01:09:04Yeah?
01:09:05Ava, I will take care of you.
01:09:12And the baby.
01:09:14Just like my brother would have.
01:09:16I brought some fruit for you and the...
01:09:19Luca!
01:09:21She's pregnant.
01:09:23Be gentle with her.
01:09:26I think maybe you should get some less.
01:09:30Okay.
01:09:32Oh, wait.
01:09:33What is it?
01:09:34I think I'm in labor.
01:09:35Oh my god.
01:09:36Come on.
01:09:37Come on.
01:09:38Come on.
01:09:39Come on.
01:09:40What is it?
01:09:41What is taking so long?
01:09:42Is something wrong?
01:09:43She's gone into labor early.
01:09:44Have you two been intimate recently?
01:09:46Well, we didn't exactly.
01:09:47I mean, not completely.
01:09:49I warned you to be careful with her.
01:09:51What can we do now?
01:09:52The medication isn't working as we'd hoped.
01:09:53There's another approach we could try.
01:09:54Yes, yes.
01:09:55We'll do anything.
01:09:56It's no object.
01:09:57Just help her.
01:09:58Some intimate touches can help her relax and feel better.
01:09:59Right here.
01:10:00Right here.
01:10:01Right here.
01:10:02Right here.
01:10:03Yes.
01:10:04Yes.
01:10:05What, Mom, I can't.
01:10:06You can't make a decision.
01:10:07What, I can't.
01:10:08I can't, you know, get out.
01:10:09I can't.
01:10:10I can't.
01:10:11Still.
01:10:12Who are you Fiore?
01:10:13I'm Fiore...
01:10:14Who am Fiore?

01:10:34Just whip it out.
01:10:36Don't hurry it up.
01:11:04I hope things are going smoothly in there.
01:11:11They've never been together before.
01:11:14Never been together?
01:11:16Then how could she be?
01:11:18The child is my late son's.
01:11:21Luca's brother.

01:12:08I'm okay.
01:12:09Okay.
01:12:14I thought this hospital was the best that money can buy.
01:12:16I guess I was misinformed.
01:12:19Look, they're doing the best they can.
01:12:22Let's not terrorize the staff.
01:12:26Look, I just don't want to see you in any more pain.
01:12:31You want to tear me apart?
01:12:40Luca, remember to control yourself, son.
01:12:46Let her recover first.
01:12:58And have you decided what to name this little prince?
01:13:02Marco.

01:14:12dandelion, and if the seeds blew out easily, then they were thinking of you too.
01:14:36Miss, Mrs. Mancini's wedding gifts, the finest villas, the Mancini family jewelry, and finally,
