00:05:30Early this morning carter pearson ceo pearson health care was fatally shot by a gunman on fifth avenue
00:05:37Police suspect the attack may be related to the wave of insurance policy changes that pearson health care is preparing to implement
00:05:43For now the gunman remains at large while elena pearson the victim's daughter is set to take over as ceo
00:06:01Clean that up
00:06:03Good morning gentlemen, I've called this emergency meeting to make an important announcement
00:06:13I will be continuing to advance health care reform
00:06:18The goal is to ensure all patients receive fair insurance coverage and to make health care more affordable for everyone
00:06:27My plan
00:06:29To hell with your shit plan you're giving away our profits these poor people
00:06:36I reject it
00:06:37Uncle Houston poor health care policies have led to my father's death
00:06:41My plans are implemented to correct these wrongs
00:06:45No matter what you say I will never ever change my mind
00:06:50Oh really you think you can control the entire group
00:06:53I'm not the only one against this bullshit plan
00:07:08Game of the latestnah
00:07:31So
00:07:32Looks like you all need some more training still.
00:07:44Got a long way to go.
00:07:48Will the healthcare heiress be able to bring about meaningful reform,
00:07:51or will she be next on the assassin's list?
00:07:54Hey, Josh, can you bring me my headset and my jacket, please?
00:07:58Ace, you're the CEO of the company.
00:08:00You could totally assign someone else to handle Elena's case.
00:08:04So you heard the news too, huh?
00:08:05I think anyone's going to protect her like I would, Josh.
00:08:09I'll handle it.
00:08:19Elena, today, you're going to follow my plan to increase healthcare prices.
00:08:25We will vote to dismiss you as CEO.
00:08:28Simple as that.
00:08:30Without the board's approval, you have no right to dismiss me.
00:08:39Have you lost your mind? Forcing a signature is illegal.
00:08:46No one here will testify against me.
00:08:48Just sign the damn paper.
00:08:50Are you all going to let him do this?
00:08:53Elena, you're asking us to throw our money away on those lowlifes.
00:08:57Don't blame us because we're not picking your side.
00:09:05Let's go, Russ. Come on.
00:09:07Get your hands off of her.
00:09:23No way.
00:09:24That voice.
00:09:25It can't be him.
00:09:29It can't be him.
00:09:30You can't.
00:09:31Long time no see, Miss Pearson.
00:09:45I'm your personal bodyguard.
00:09:47It's been three years.
00:09:49I've missed you, Elena.
00:09:51You're my what?
00:09:52Jesus, Elena.
00:09:53Did you do something about your bodyguard?
00:09:56Stupid or something?
00:10:00You insult my boss again.
00:10:02You're going to be the one that needs some fucking healthcare.
00:10:05Okay, everyone out of my boardroom.
00:10:12Well, leave.
00:10:13Or you're fired.
00:10:14I don't give a shit you're my uncle.
00:10:15There's only one way to deal with people like you, Elena.
00:10:18And that's to get rid of them.
00:10:20Just like I got rid of your father.
00:10:26What are you doing here?
00:10:28No one told me anything about needing a personal bodyguard.
00:10:33Miss Pearson.
00:10:35Mr. Atkins.
00:10:37I'm Oliver, the family butler.
00:10:39Miss, Mr. Ace Atkins is the most sought-after bodyguard in America.
00:10:46Now, as for the contract, he will provide you protection 24 hours to ensure your safety at all times.
00:10:56No.
00:10:58I won't have him as my bodyguard.
00:11:02I won't have him as my bodyguard.
00:11:04Oliver, you can get me literally anyone else.
00:11:08Anyone but him.
00:11:08Ma'am, I urge you to rethink this.
00:11:12With him around, your safety is practically guaranteed.
00:11:17Oliver, can you leave us alone for a minute?
00:11:19I need to talk to him.
00:11:21Yes, ma'am.
00:11:25Ace, what are you doing here?
00:11:27I was just making sure that you're safe.
00:11:29Healthcare CEOs are on high alert right now and, well, I was worried about you.
00:11:36We broke up three years ago.
00:11:37You cheated on me.
00:11:38You don't have the right to be worried about me.
00:11:41The last thing I need right now is you being my bodyguard.
00:11:46The contract's already signed, so I'll just cover the termination fee.
00:11:50Now go.
00:11:50I don't really understand why you're refusing all of this help.
00:11:54Are you afraid you're going to fall in love with me again?
00:12:02Are you afraid you're going to fall in love with me again?
00:12:04Why is my heart beating so fast?
00:12:07You're delusional.
00:12:10Oh, wait a minute.
00:12:14The rational thing to do is to think of your safety right now, so just let me protect you.
00:12:19Only an idiot would entrust their safety to someone who cheated on them while they were engaged.
00:12:25Let go.
00:12:25Take me home.
00:12:34Now later.
00:12:39Asshole.
00:12:40You broke my heart.
00:12:42Now you come back into my life like it's nothing?
00:12:44That's odd.
00:12:51I turned off the lights when I left the house, right?
00:13:00Someone broke in.
00:13:02The killer?
00:13:02The killer?
00:13:02Why so surprised, princess?
00:13:27Didn't you know you were going to be next?
00:13:29No.
00:13:33I don't want to die, please.
00:13:35Someone help me.
00:13:36I don't want to die.
00:13:59I don't want to die.
00:14:05I don't want to die.
00:14:07I don't want to die, you're safe.
00:14:24You're hurt.
00:14:25Are you all right?
00:14:26You saved me.
00:14:27Mace.
00:14:32You're bleeding.
00:14:37He might be an asshole, but damn, he's even hotter than he used to be.
00:14:42He's still got that same glow.
00:14:44God, I missed her.
00:14:47Do you remember the last time we had?
00:14:52I bet her.
00:14:52He's hard.
00:15:06Yes, ma'am.
00:15:13That guy got you in the leg, too, right?
00:15:15I should wrap that up.
00:15:18You tried to stab me in the leg, and he missed.
00:15:22It's fine.
00:15:23I saw the knife go straight into your leg.
00:15:29Is there something wrong?
00:15:30It's fine.
00:15:32Okay.
00:15:32Okay.
00:15:32Okay.
00:15:34Bye.
00:15:34Bye.
00:15:41Bye.
00:15:47Bye.
00:15:53Bye.
00:15:59Bye.
00:16:00Bye.
00:16:00Oh, my, am I interrupting?
00:16:11No, no, Ace cut himself, and I was just helping him dress the wound.
00:16:22Mr. Atkins, I brought your luggage up.
00:16:25Great.
00:16:26Wait, he's not staying with me.
00:16:28Why, yes, Miss Pearson, of course.
00:16:32That's exactly what a personal bodyguard does.
00:16:36The contract clearly states that Mr. Atkins must remain by your side 24-7 to ensure your safety.
00:16:45Oliver, it's not just about the contract.
00:16:47I can't...
00:16:48I can't let my ex-boyfriend live with me as my bodyguard.
00:16:54You must understand.
00:16:55You might very well be the next target.
00:16:59If you fail to understand this, then I shall have to tender my letter of resignation.
00:17:07I'll be fine.
00:17:09Oliver, you win.
00:17:11Brilliant.
00:17:12Mr. Atkins, from here on out, Miss Pearson's safety is in your hands.
00:17:24I would take a bullet for her.
00:17:26You're the first door on the left.
00:17:41You can stay there.
00:17:42Elena, please.
00:17:43Ace, let's just address the elephant in the room.
00:17:46We broke up three years ago, and that's that.
00:17:50Now, if you're going to be staying here, we need to establish some boundaries.
00:17:53So, here's how it's going to go.
00:17:56You are going to do your job as my bodyguard, and I'm going to live my life.
00:18:00Nothing else.
00:18:02Is that clear?
00:18:04Crystal.
00:18:06I'll give him a pack of stuff.
00:18:08Is this his wallet?
00:18:33You said you never left me, so why do you have a photo of me inside your wallet?
00:18:37I checked the house.
00:18:46It's all clear.
00:18:47Safe to sleep.
00:18:48Great.
00:18:49Thanks.
00:18:50I'm going to go to bed now.
00:18:51I'm going to go to bed now.
00:18:53Shit.
00:19:09Shit.
00:19:17Shit.
00:19:18Shit.
00:19:18Sorry, I thought you were in danger.
00:19:29Just hand me that towel.
00:19:32It's not like I haven't seen you before.
00:19:55Be professional.
00:19:57I'm still your boss, remember?
00:20:02Yes, ma'am.
00:20:27You've changed a lot, Elena.
00:20:29And after all these years, I still feel the same about you.
00:20:48Ace, I have some scar cream for you.
00:20:50Yeah, just hold on a second, one minute.
00:20:57Hey, what's up?
00:20:59Hey.
00:21:01I just have something for the scars.
00:21:06I can put it on.
00:21:08Okay.
00:21:10I'm surprised that you still want to show this much care for me still.
00:21:25Get out for yourself.
00:21:26I'm just helping you because I'm nice.
00:21:30Elena, calm yourself.
00:21:32He's just a stupid ex with a hot body.
00:21:35Okay.
00:21:36Okay.
00:21:37Hold on.
00:21:39Okay, what is with you and this blanket?
00:21:51I saw that guy get you in the leg.
00:21:53I think it's fine.
00:21:55It's fine.
00:21:56I'm just sitting.
00:21:57It's how I sit.
00:21:58I call BS.
00:21:59Let me see it.
00:22:00I call BS.
00:22:01Let me see it.
00:22:14What if I'm hiding something under there?
00:22:18Maybe I'm hiding the owner to see it.
00:22:23You're not my boyfriend anymore.
00:22:32You're my bodyguard.
00:22:33You should keep things professional.
00:22:36Good night for you.
00:22:40Good night.
00:22:42You're right, Elena.
00:22:47I'm just your bodyguard.
00:22:49Elena, I want you to put this on.
00:23:02It's lightweight.
00:23:03You won't even feel it.
00:23:04I'm not wearing that.
00:23:06You can either do it yourself or I could strip your clothes off for you.
00:23:09And I can do it.
00:23:11And if you ask me, I prefer the latter.
00:23:13Look, I can do it myself.
00:23:19You have to be gay.
00:23:20Her 25s...
00:23:21Sure.
00:23:22Okay.
00:23:23Whep.
00:23:24You got it.
00:23:33Why does he have to be so damn attractive?
00:23:47Okay, uh, I have to go. I'm late for work.
00:23:54Yes, ma'am.
00:24:00I'm assuming the assassination didn't go as planned?
00:24:03An idiot calls himself a hitman. He can't handle a defenseless woman.
00:24:08Jan, I'm leaving this to you.
00:24:11Seduce Elena, get her under your thumb, and Pearson Healthcare is ours.
00:24:15Consider it done.
00:24:17Jesus, Chad, how many times have I told you to knock?
00:24:26What do you want?
00:24:28You owe me dinner, remember?
00:24:30I remember.
00:24:32But I'm swamped with work and planning a funeral, so can you take a brain check?
00:24:36Let me handle the funeral preparations.
00:24:39You've been working too hard since your father passed.
00:24:42This is how people get burned down. You need to take some time off to relax.
00:24:45Yeah.
00:24:55You know what? Let's do dinner.
00:25:01Great.
00:25:02Sir, this is a table for two.
00:25:20Why don't you go sit over there?
00:25:21I'm Miss Pearson's bodyguard.
00:25:30I've got to keep a tight perimeter around her at all times.
00:25:47Well, don't let me interrupt. If you guys haven't ordered yet, go ahead.
00:26:02I don't want to drink.
00:26:05I don't want to drink.
00:26:06I don't want to drink.
00:26:07I don't want to drink.
00:26:0882 Lafite.
00:26:09Your favorite.
00:26:11I found a collector who was willing to sell it to me.
00:26:14Here, have a taste.
00:26:19Hey, I find it kind of rude, Chad, that you're not offering me a drink.
00:26:21like I am attending this dinner with the two of you,
00:26:23aren't I?
00:26:25Well, Mr. Atkins, seeing that you're Alana's bodyguard,
00:26:29I didn't find it appropriate for you
00:26:31to be drinking on the job now.
00:26:35My apologies.
00:26:38Alana.
00:26:42I know how tough it's been for you,
00:26:44and I want you to know that I'm here for you, always.
00:26:49And that my heart belongs to you.
00:26:55Sorry, Chad, I'm not really in the mood to talk about all that.
00:26:59Um, can we eat?
00:27:01I'm starving.
00:27:02Yeah, Sam.
00:27:06The mango salad.
00:27:11Oh, hey, Sam, sorry about that.
00:27:13She actually doesn't like mangoes.
00:27:15You mind bringing out another plate without him?
00:27:17He still remembers?
00:27:19I'll see what I can do about that.
00:27:25Wait, didn't you two just meet?
00:27:27How would he know that you don't like mangoes?
00:27:31How would he know that you don't like mangoes?
00:27:34Well, we actually go way back,
00:27:36and I know a hell of a lot more about her
00:27:38than just her preference on mangoes.
00:27:39He's my bodyguard.
00:27:40Of course, Oliver told him everything
00:27:42that he needed to know.
00:27:43I'll just pick around the way it goes.
00:27:49Okay, something's definitely going on
00:27:51with Alana and her bodyguard.
00:27:52What's going on with Alana and her bodyguard?
00:27:53What was that tonight?
00:27:54If I didn't know that you were going on
00:27:55with Alana and her bodyguard.
00:27:56What was that tonight?
00:27:57If I didn't know any better,
00:27:58I'd think you might be jealous of Chad.
00:27:59Maybe you're just seeing things
00:28:00the way you want to see them.
00:28:19What was that tonight?
00:28:21If I didn't know any better,
00:28:22I'd think you might be jealous of Chad.
00:28:25Maybe you're just seeing things
00:28:26the way you want to see them.
00:28:29You ever think about that?
00:28:31How could I forget?
00:28:32Right.
00:28:33You shattered my heart.
00:28:36Just save it.
00:28:38Just go home.
00:28:39My funeral preparation's to make anyway.
00:28:45I'm sorry, Alana.
00:28:47I was just trying to give you a better life.
00:28:50I didn't think it would hurt you this much.
00:28:57Alana!
00:28:59Alana!
00:29:00Alana!
00:29:01Dad!
00:29:02You're back.
00:29:06Dad!
00:29:08Dad!
00:29:09Dad!
00:29:14Dad!
00:29:17What's going on?
00:29:18Please.
00:29:20It looks fine, I'm hearing you, okay?
00:29:22You're safe.
00:29:24I had a dream about my dad.
00:29:28One second he was smiling at me and then the next.
00:29:39I just doubt myself sometimes.
00:29:44Do you really think that I can make a change in this industry?
00:29:55You're the strongest woman I've ever known.
00:29:59And I think that you can do anything that you set your heart on.
00:30:03Besides, I'm gonna be right here the whole time supporting you, protecting you.
00:30:09Protecting me.
00:30:12Do you really think I can trust you after what you've put me through?
00:30:18A relationship that is in the past.
00:30:23But I would protect you with my life.
00:30:25I'd die for you.
00:30:28I need you to understand that.
00:30:31So you would die for me, but you won't love me.
00:30:40So you would die for me, but you won't love me.
00:30:43Don't love me.
00:30:44Stay with me.
00:30:47It's...
00:30:52Is that what you wanted to keep things professional?
00:30:54Um...
00:30:56Stay with me.
00:30:57Stay with me.
00:31:10I thought you wanted to keep things professional.
00:31:14You're my bodyguard.
00:31:17And I'm scared.
00:31:20Stay with me.
00:31:22So I can feel safe.
00:31:27If only I could stay by your side like this forever.
00:31:50What are we doing here?
00:31:52I'm going to teach you some basic self-defense techniques.
00:31:55You know, just in case.
00:31:56Always got to be prepared.
00:31:57And what I mean is, in case I die first and you're still in danger, you can fight your
00:32:05way out.
00:32:08First case scenario.
00:32:14What would you do if someone had you against a wall like this?
00:32:21Um...
00:32:22No, all the pushing in the world won't do anything.
00:32:28Try putting your hand on a more vulnerable place.
00:32:33Dug one there.
00:32:36And out there.
00:32:37Push as hard as you can.
00:32:38All right.
00:32:39All right.
00:32:44All right.
00:32:44All right.
00:32:44All right.
00:32:45All right.
00:32:49Second scenario.
00:32:52What if somebody...
00:32:53Had you like this?
00:32:57It's just self-defense training.
00:33:10Don't let it get to you, Alina.
00:33:13What's your move?
00:33:14Um, I'd go for the more vulnerable part.
00:33:21Like, stomping on the...
00:33:23Very nice.
00:33:27You're a very fast learner, aren't you?
00:33:30Okay.
00:33:31Third scenario.
00:33:33You ready?
00:33:34All right.
00:33:35Someone's got you like this.
00:33:45Starts choking you.
00:33:47Um...
00:33:48You gotta be quick.
00:33:49This...
00:33:51Use your hips.
00:33:54What?
00:33:56Use your hips to thrust me off of you.
00:33:58As hard as you can.
00:34:03Ace, are you okay?
00:34:05Did I hurt your leg?
00:34:06No.
00:34:06What was that sound?
00:34:12It didn't hurt my leg.
00:34:14It's fine.
00:34:15That was a good job.
00:34:16No, you're hurt.
00:34:18Let me...
00:34:19Fine.
00:34:19That was good work, though.
00:34:20Seriously.
00:34:21Ace,
00:34:22the new security equipment just arrived.
00:34:24Can you come check it out?
00:34:25Yeah, sure.
00:34:26Thanks, Josh.
00:34:28Good job today.
00:34:30Seriously.
00:34:35Ace is hiding something from me.
00:34:46Hi.
00:34:48Alina, right?
00:34:49I'm Josh.
00:34:50I used to serve with Ace in the military,
00:34:53but now we're colleagues.
00:34:54She talks about you a lot.
00:34:56Hi, Josh.
00:34:56I'm sorry.
00:34:59Can I ask,
00:35:00is there something going on with Ace's leg?
00:35:06Uh-huh.
00:35:07Leg?
00:35:08No.
00:35:09Not that I know of.
00:35:10You know,
00:35:12Ace has been single for years now.
00:35:14Everyone here knows that
00:35:16there's someone he's never been able to forget.
00:35:19And that person is you, Alina.
00:35:23You're mistaken.
00:35:24He...
00:35:24He doesn't love me.
00:35:26At all.
00:35:27If you knew him,
00:35:28then you would know that he broke up with me three years ago.
00:35:31You know,
00:35:32I might be just an outsider,
00:35:33but I know Ace.
00:35:36Maybe some things aren't what they seem.
00:35:39Alright.
00:35:40I gotta go check up on Ace and the new equipment.
00:35:43It was nice meeting you, Alina.
00:35:44Maybe some things aren't what they seem.
00:35:49What does that even mean?
00:35:51Yeah, thanks, Josh.
00:35:52Everything looks great.
00:35:53Okay.
00:35:58Ace.
00:35:59Alina asked about your leg.
00:36:03What'd you say?
00:36:07What'd you say?
00:36:09Don't worry.
00:36:10I'd say it were.
00:36:11But,
00:36:13honestly, man,
00:36:14I think she still cares about you.
00:36:16Maybe it's time you told her the truth.
00:36:17I appreciate your input, Josh,
00:36:18but I think I know what's best for Alina,
00:36:20and I...
00:36:21Might want to deal with that prosthetic soon, though.
00:36:24It's overdue for a replacement.
00:36:26If it keeps stalling,
00:36:27you're gonna damage the nerves in your leg, man.
00:36:29You know that a new prosthetic
00:36:30would take about three weeks.
00:36:32I'm still on the job.
00:36:34I can't leave Alina alone.
00:36:35I think that would be very, uh,
00:36:36irresponsible of me,
00:36:38don't you think, Josh?
00:36:39Man,
00:36:40you're in hell romantic.
00:36:41You know that?
00:36:42Yeah, well,
00:36:42that makes one of us.
00:36:43Why don't you
00:36:44get the hell out of here, all right?
00:36:45All right.
00:37:00Almighty God,
00:37:02in your mercy,
00:37:03turn the darkness of death
00:37:04into the dawn of new life
00:37:06and the sorrow of parting
00:37:08into the joy of heaven
00:37:10through our Savior Jesus Christ,
00:37:12who died,
00:37:14rose again,
00:37:15and lives forevermore.
00:37:17Amen.
00:37:18my deepest condolences.
00:37:24May your father rest in peace.
00:37:27If your father knew
00:37:28that your reckless reform
00:37:29to be tearing his company apart,
00:37:31he would never rest in peace.
00:37:33He was your brother.
00:37:35If you had even a shred
00:37:36of affection for him,
00:37:37you would never say something
00:37:38like that at his funeral.
00:37:40You know, Uncle Houston,
00:37:41I've always wondered,
00:37:42you've been far angrier
00:37:43about the health care reforms
00:37:45than my own father's murder.
00:37:47Could it be that you had
00:37:48something to do with his death?
00:37:51That is outrageous slander.
00:37:54How dare you accuse me
00:37:55of murdering my brother
00:37:56at his funeral?
00:37:57I'm sorry for your loss.
00:38:07I'm sorry for your loss.
00:38:27That's enough.
00:38:47This was my father's favorite.
00:38:49I got it for him
00:38:50for his birthday,
00:38:51but he didn't even get
00:38:52a chance to drink it.
00:38:54Right here.
00:39:06Not going anywhere.
00:39:15Okay.
00:39:21Don't go.
00:39:24Can you promise
00:39:28that you won't leave me again?
00:39:31I promise.
00:39:33I'll never leave you again.
00:39:35Josh said that
00:39:36there's someone in your heart.
00:39:39Someone that you can't forget.
00:39:41Is that someone me?
00:39:46Tell me, Ace.
00:39:47Ace.
00:39:47Ace.
00:39:47Ace.
00:39:54Yes.
00:39:56That someone is you.
00:39:58And it always has been.
00:40:00If you love me,
00:40:01then why did you break up with me?
00:40:02Look, it's been a long day.
00:40:04I don't think
00:40:04we should talk about it.
00:40:08I'm just going to end up hurting you.
00:40:09You did hurt me.
00:40:12Three years ago,
00:40:13I waited for you to come back
00:40:15and marry me,
00:40:16and then you left me
00:40:17for another woman.
00:40:19You broke my heart.
00:40:21And then you just
00:40:22walked back in my life
00:40:23like nothing happened.
00:40:25No.
00:40:26No.
00:40:27No.
00:40:27I don't know.
00:40:57Oh, my God, I drank too much.
00:41:11Can we sleep together?
00:41:14You hungry?
00:41:16I had your breakfast.
00:41:18Last night, we...
00:41:22You were drunk.
00:41:24Very drunk.
00:41:25I took care of you.
00:41:26That was it.
00:41:27He's not gonna mention the kiss?
00:41:30Jerk.
00:41:33Well, thank you so much for taking such great care of me, Mr. Bodyguard.
00:41:39You've been far angrier about the health care reforms than my own father's murder.
00:41:53Haven't you dealt with that bitch, Elena, yet?
00:41:56She's starting to suspect I had something to do with her father's death.
00:41:58She's hard to handle.
00:41:59A bodyguard of hers is practically glued onto her.
00:42:03I can never get her alone and make any real progress.
00:42:06This will not do.
00:42:08She's been lobbying aggressively within the company.
00:42:11Some of the board are starting to support her reforms.
00:42:13If she keeps this up, I'll get pushed out of the company.
00:42:17What do you want me to do?
00:42:20The company's annual gala is this weekend.
00:42:23Elena will undoubtedly use it to rally more support from the board.
00:42:26What you're going to do is invite her to go as your date, and then you're going to propose to her publicly.
00:42:31Tell her she'll get more support from the board if she's married with a husband.
00:42:34We can use the engagement to shift public focus away from her form.
00:42:39Kill two birds with one stone.
00:42:40I like that.
00:42:40Exactly.
00:42:41The media will be there, and she won't reject you in front of everyone.
00:42:45There's no way she risks tanking the company's stock prices again.
00:42:52Elena.
00:42:54I was hoping I would be able to escort you to the company dinner this weekend.
00:43:00I told you, Mr. Vegas would be chasing this person.
00:43:03He's been out for ages.
00:43:05His persistence is kind of impressive.
00:43:15Chad, I...
00:43:16Elena, trust me.
00:43:18I can help you win over a couple more board members for the health care reform plan.
00:43:26Yeah.
00:43:27Yes, I would love to go to dinner.
00:43:30Great.
00:43:31See you later.
00:43:33How do I look?
00:43:53You look beautiful.
00:43:55You know, I don't know if you have to dress so formally.
00:43:58What, are you jealous?
00:44:01I just don't think that that guy deserves all of this.
00:44:13Oh, speak of the double.
00:44:16Beautiful.
00:44:17Elena, we should get going.
00:44:18We're going to be late.
00:44:19And, uh, Ace, remember your place.
00:44:24Okay, there's sport.
00:44:25You're the bodyguard.
00:44:27So make sure you keep a professional distance between you and your employer, yeah?
00:44:31Yeah.
00:44:31Yeah.
00:44:32Elena's health care reform plan might have some short-term losses, but I believe the long-term benefits far outweigh the small drawbacks.
00:44:56Forget about that for a moment.
00:44:58What we're really curious about is how far you two have gotten.
00:45:03Given the company's current PR crisis, announcing a wedding might actually help repair its image.
00:45:09Elena, Chad seems like an excellent match.
00:45:13Oh, um, Mr. and Mrs. Hans, you're mistaken.
00:45:17Chad and I are...
00:45:17Thank you for your blessing, and we'll seriously consider it.
00:45:20Our company has faced challenges recently, but on this special night, our new CEO, Ms. Elena Pearson, would like to say a few words.
00:45:40Before Ms. Pearson says anything, I have a surprise for her.
00:45:47I have a surprise for her.
00:45:49Elena, I have loved you for so long.
00:46:06Will you marry me?
00:46:07Marry him!
00:46:09Marry him!
00:46:10Marry him!
00:46:11Marry him!
00:46:12Marry him!
00:46:14Marry him!
00:46:15Marry him!
00:46:17Marry him!
00:46:18Marry him!
00:46:19Marry him!
00:46:19chat, stand up.
00:46:19What are you doing?
00:46:20I don't...
00:46:22Come on, let's go.
00:46:24We're leaving.
00:46:25Okay.
00:46:27What the hell are you doing?
00:46:44Starving out like that in front of all those guests, you've realized how bad you're making the company's image look.
00:46:49Oh, really? So what, you're going to just marry that guy to save the company's image? That's ridiculous.
00:46:54Who I marry is none of your business. We're over, Ace. You're just my bodyguard. You don't get to interfere with my life.
00:47:01You don't mean that. You don't love that guy. You barely fucking know him.
00:47:05Who I love is none of your concern.
00:47:08Don't pretend to care about me, Ace Atkins, when you've pushed me away over and over again.
00:47:15Even if I'd said yes to Chad's proposal, you would have nothing to do with it and you couldn't stop me.
00:47:29Elena! Elena, where are you?
00:47:34Elena, are you in there?
00:47:38Tell him you're busy. Make him leave.
00:47:44Tell him you're busy. Make him leave.
00:47:47I'll be out in a minute.
00:48:12Are you sure you're okay?
00:48:13Okay.
00:48:13Okay.
00:48:17Yeah, I'm fine. Just...
00:48:19Just go.
00:48:36Ace, you're a bastard.
00:48:38Look, I'm sorry about that, but that guy doesn't fucking deserve you.
00:48:42Owen, you do?
00:48:42You abandoned me. We were supposed to get married.
00:48:48You have no right to say that to me.
00:48:50What do you think's going on here?
00:48:53Do you think that I don't love you?
00:48:55I mean, do you have any fucking idea...
00:48:57Elena!
00:48:58Who's in there with you?
00:48:59How much what? What are you saying?
00:49:05How much what? What are you saying?
00:49:07Elena!
00:49:09What do you think?
00:49:10What are you two doing in here?
00:49:17I could ask you the same question, Chad.
00:49:19You told me it was just a date to the gala, and then you go and pull that stunt out there?
00:49:24Proposing in front of everyone? What? Have you lost your mind?
00:49:27Elena, I have been pursuing you for so long, and you've never rejected me.
00:49:31So that has to mean that you feel the same way.
00:49:35What?
00:49:36I haven't said anything. You need to go out and tell the people the truth.
00:49:40What's the difference? Hmm?
00:49:42Everybody already thinks that you're my fiancé now.
00:49:45Since you've never rejected me, it's clear that you like me.
00:49:48It's only natural for us to be together.
00:49:49Hey, don't step closer.
00:49:51And who the hell are you?
00:49:53You're just a fucking bodyguard!
00:49:55I don't think I don't see what's happening.
00:49:59Acting all on your high horse, but deep down, you're just a slut sleeping with your bodyguard.
00:50:12Bravo! Bravo! You two are the perfect pair of adulterers.
00:50:15Hey, this must be nice, huh?
00:50:17Living with your boss, sleeping with her on the side.
00:50:20Shut the fuck up.
00:50:21Is the matter, struck a nerve?
00:50:22Elena, you have the audacity to accuse me of damaging the company?
00:50:29Take a look in the mirror.
00:50:31You're the CEO sleeping with your fucking bodyguard.
00:50:33You're the real disgrace of the piercing group.
00:50:39You see that girl right there?
00:50:42There's no one in the world that I love more than her.
00:50:44You're not going to disrespect her.
00:50:46You show face around here again, I'm going to fuck you too.
00:50:48Do you understand?
00:50:49Do you understand?
00:51:00You left me?
00:51:02Did you mean what you said?
00:51:09Ace, just tell me the truth.
00:51:11That's all it takes for us to start over.
00:51:16No, Elena, I can't be with you.
00:51:19I'm just a man with a prosthetic.
00:51:22I'm not whole.
00:51:22I'll never be enough for you.
00:51:24That's just impulsive.
00:51:25I shouldn't have said that.
00:51:26I'm sorry.
00:51:28You're lying.
00:51:29You still keep a photo of us in your wallet.
00:51:33You'd risk your life for me.
00:51:35You'd stay up all night to protect me.
00:51:37That is not just a bodyguard doing his job.
00:51:39That is something more, and you know it.
00:51:42Moments ago, right here, you said that you love me more than anyone else in the world.
00:51:47Ace...
00:51:48Why won't you admit that you still love me?
00:51:53Elena, look.
00:51:58Look.
00:52:01I'm here to guard you.
00:52:03I'm your bodyguard.
00:52:04I shouldn't have crossed the line, and I'm sorry.
00:52:09Now, let's go.
00:52:12Stay away from me.
00:52:14Elena.
00:52:17I'm sorry, Elena.
00:52:19I can't hold you back.
00:52:20You deserve better than a broken man like myself.
00:52:29Can't handle one woman?
00:52:31Absolutely useless.
00:52:32God, that bitch has been screwing her bodyguard the whole damn time.
00:52:35What do you want me to do?
00:52:36God, that pathetic freaking loser.
00:52:40I'm going to kill him.
00:52:42It's only a matter of time.
00:52:44If that's the case, there's only one option left.
00:52:48We want Pearson Group.
00:52:50We're going to have to eliminate her.
00:52:52Just like we did her father.
00:52:54You think you can fix everything with these little tricks?
00:53:10It won't work, Ace.
00:53:12It's your favorite.
00:53:13French toast.
00:53:15Been up since six, making sure everything was perfect.
00:53:17I know it's been a while, so I hope it tastes like how you remember it.
00:53:23Oliver, what are you doing here?
00:53:40This is a signed first edition.
00:53:45Mr. Atkins went through several of his connections to track that down for you.
00:53:51And while you were at your meetings, he took it upon himself to redecorate your entire office.
00:53:58Do you really think gestures like these are going to make me forgive you?
00:54:12I just want you to be happy.
00:54:15Elena, whether you forgive me or not doesn't really matter.
00:54:19You have every right to hate me and to push me away if that's what you want.
00:54:22But please, just don't let this anger eat away at you.
00:54:29It wasn't your fault.
00:54:31None of it was.
00:54:33It was mine.
00:54:35Don't think you've won me over.
00:54:37I haven't forgiven you yet.
00:54:41Don't think you've won me over.
00:54:42I haven't forgiven you yet.
00:54:45Go make me a coffee.
00:54:48I have a meeting soon.
00:54:49Okay.
00:54:52Mrs. Pearson, if I may say, Mr. Atkins cares for you deeply.
00:55:02And from the way you look at him, it's clear you feel the same way.
00:55:07So why not just be together?
00:55:10Oliver, you don't understand.
00:55:11Every time I take a step forward, he takes two steps back.
00:55:16It's not that simple.
00:55:18Well, then maybe you should take the lead.
00:55:21Valentine's Day is right around the corner.
00:55:25Why not use the occasion to clear the air and finally talk it through?
00:55:31Well, maybe you should take the lead.
00:55:50The first gift I ever gave Ace was a motorcycle, and he loved it.
00:55:55Ace, stay here.
00:55:56I have a surprise for you.
00:56:02All right.
00:56:03And your order will be delivered tonight.
00:56:05Thank you so much.
00:56:06Thank you for shopping with us, Ms. Pearson.
00:56:07Feel free.
00:56:16Bye-bye.
00:56:19Bye-bye.
00:56:20Bye-bye.
00:56:21Bye-bye.
00:56:27Bye-bye.
00:56:33Bye-bye.
00:56:34Oh, my God.
00:57:04Josh, Elena's been taking.
00:57:06Activate the tracking system, get the cops involved.
00:57:09I'll go on after her.
00:57:23Who are you?
00:57:24Look at this, it's about the company's healthcare reforms that I promised you.
00:57:27I'm proposing a new plan.
00:57:29It's set to pass on Monday, so please don't kill me.
00:57:32Shut your mouth.
00:57:34This isn't about healthcare, you got it all wrong.
00:57:37What?
00:57:44My uncle hired you?
00:57:47He paid you to kill my dad?
00:57:49Ding, ding, ding, ding.
00:57:49Took you long enough to figure out.
00:57:52Daddy's little girl is so clever.
00:57:56Now sign the damn thing or I'll...
00:57:58Put a hole in your head!
00:57:59Okay, I'll sign.
00:58:04But you have to let me go after.
00:58:06Good.
00:58:07Sign it, then you're free to go.
00:58:11He's lying.
00:58:12As soon as I sign, he'll kill me.
00:58:14Think, Elena, think.
00:58:16Hurry up.
00:58:18Don't try anything stupid or...
00:58:20break your legs before you can escape.
00:58:23Okay?
00:58:23No, I don't want to die.
00:58:36Please, Ace, save me.
00:58:40Now that this job is completed,
00:58:43I can never have to worry about money ever again.
00:58:45I'll get you up.
00:58:56Hey.
00:58:58Ah!
00:59:00Ah!
00:59:05Drop your weapon or I'll blow her brains out.
00:59:10Ace, don't do it.
00:59:11Drop your weapon!
00:59:20Good job.
00:59:21Close your eyes and walk toward me.
00:59:23Good.
00:59:38No.
00:59:40No.
00:59:40Are you crazy?
00:59:52He had a gun pointed at your head
00:59:53and you still went after him.
00:59:55I thought I lost you.
00:59:57It's going to be okay.
01:00:01I knew exactly what he was doing
01:00:02when he asked me to close my eyes.
01:00:04It's over.
01:00:05Who sent you?
01:00:15Ah!
01:00:16Ah!
01:00:17Ah!
01:00:18Okay, just get me a medic.
01:00:20I don't want to die.
01:00:21You're going to get some help
01:00:21as soon as you give me some fucking answers.
01:00:23So talk!
01:00:26It's Houston.
01:00:28He paid me to kill Carter.
01:00:30The kid, Emelina.
01:00:31Uh, there's proof.
01:00:33Where?
01:00:33My left jacket pocket.
01:00:35Just drink it!
01:00:37Ah!
01:00:40Ah!
01:00:41Kill that idiot, Carter Pearson,
01:00:43and the five million dollars is yours.
01:00:50Why would he murder his own brother?
01:00:52My father's been nothing but kind to him.
01:00:53The cops are on the way.
01:01:02Everything's fine.
01:01:02Because I don't understand.
01:01:05Houston was the company's
01:01:06second largest shareholder.
01:01:08What more could he possibly want?
01:01:10Why would he murder my father?
01:01:14And in front of me, too.
01:01:16I'm going to have to live with that image
01:01:18scarred into the back of my mind
01:01:20for the rest of my life.
01:01:21Some people just want more.
01:01:23And it's never enough.
01:01:24They're just greedy,
01:01:25and they're monsters,
01:01:26and you never have to think
01:01:26about them again, okay?
01:01:28It's over.
01:01:30It's over.
01:01:35I'm not going to go.
01:01:36Hey.
01:01:37Let's go.
01:01:38Okay.
01:01:38Let's go.
01:01:39Please pull over.
01:01:51What's wrong?
01:01:53Your arm.
01:01:54It's bleeding.
01:01:55Didn't you notice?
01:01:56No, I didn't notice.
01:01:57It must have happened during the fight.
01:01:59You're unbelievable.
01:02:02It's fine.
01:02:04Just pull over right up there.
01:02:05It's fine.
01:02:06No, I'll take care of it.
01:02:07We'll stop for a bit.
01:02:20Ace, why did you cheat on me
01:02:21all those years ago?
01:02:25Why not?
01:02:25Come on.
01:02:26Tell me the truth,
01:02:26or I swear I will wrap this bandage
01:02:28around your arm so hard
01:02:29you can't feel it.
01:02:30Hey, look.
01:02:38I screwed up.
01:02:39But that's in the past.
01:02:41I just want to move forward, okay?
01:02:44Please be honest with me.
01:02:45Do you still love me?
01:02:47Come on.
01:02:48Don't try and dodge the question.
01:02:51Today you could have called for backup,
01:02:52but you didn't.
01:02:53You charged right in to save me.
01:02:55If you didn't care about me,
01:02:57you wouldn't have gone to such extremes.
01:03:02I love you.
01:03:04Always had.
01:03:04Never stopped.
01:03:05Not even for a second.
01:03:07I believe you this time.
01:03:10Let's start fresh.
01:03:12I love you, Elena.
01:03:13I've always loved you.
01:03:15Come here.
01:03:15Dude, you need to get
01:03:24your prosthetic leg checked ASAP.
01:03:26I talked to Dr. Dean,
01:03:27and he said if you don't get treated soon,
01:03:29your leg may forever lose sensation.
01:03:37Today we're here to talk about
01:03:38my healthcare reform strategy.
01:03:41You can't even handle your personal life.
01:03:43The news came out,
01:03:45and this company's stock prices
01:03:46fell another five points.
01:03:49And yet you still think
01:03:50you can push through reforms.
01:03:52I'm the first to object.
01:03:54Elena, do you know how
01:03:55the other healthcare companies
01:03:56are mocking us?
01:03:58They're saying that we're
01:03:58spineless idiots
01:03:59because we let a woman
01:04:00become the CEO.
01:04:04Uncle Houston,
01:04:06if my scandals are causing
01:04:07such problems for the company,
01:04:10how do you plan to account
01:04:11for the damages
01:04:12that your actions have caused?
01:04:15Like hiring someone
01:04:16to kill my father.
01:04:21Like hiring someone
01:04:23to kill my father.
01:04:28That's slander.
01:04:29Your father was killed
01:04:30by an angry citizen
01:04:31who is dissatisfied
01:04:32with the current healthcare system.
01:04:34What does that have to do with me?
01:04:36Kill that idiot Carter Pearson
01:04:42and the five million dollars
01:04:43is yours.
01:04:48I testify that Houston Pearson
01:04:50paid me to kill Carter Pearson,
01:04:52and then he paid me
01:04:53to try to kill Elena Pearson.
01:04:55I hereby declare
01:05:02that Houston Pearson
01:05:04is immediately stripped
01:05:06of all his duties
01:05:07within this group.
01:05:08You murdered my father
01:05:10and tried to kill me.
01:05:11You need to pay
01:05:12for your crimes.
01:05:14You need to pay
01:05:15for your crimes.
01:05:16Who do you think you are?
01:05:17Do you think you can
01:05:18kick me out of Pearson Group?
01:05:20I gave everything
01:05:21to this company.
01:05:23Why should you,
01:05:24the daughter
01:05:25of that idiot Carter Pearson,
01:05:26inherit this company?
01:05:28What is wrong
01:05:29with increasing
01:05:29the claim denial rate?
01:05:31This company's profits doubled
01:05:33because I developed
01:05:34AI technology
01:05:35that increased
01:05:36our claim denial rate
01:05:37to 40%,
01:05:38the highest in the industry.
01:05:40And that old fool Carter,
01:05:43he dared to yell
01:05:43at me over this.
01:05:45He deserved to die.
01:05:46Every accomplishment
01:05:47you've made
01:05:48has been riding off
01:05:50to the coattails
01:05:51of struggling people
01:05:52and my father's life.
01:05:53And you show
01:05:54no remorse for them.
01:05:56You're a monster.
01:05:59Don't move.
01:06:03Raise your hands.
01:06:07Houston Pearson,
01:06:08you're on arrest
01:06:09for first degree murder.
01:06:16Now, does anyone else
01:06:39have anything to say?
01:06:43Great.
01:06:43All those in favor
01:06:46of implementing
01:06:47my health care reform strategy,
01:06:49raise your hand.
01:07:08Very well.
01:07:09It seems the majority
01:07:10has voted.
01:07:11Yes.
01:07:12I declare that
01:07:13the health care reform plan
01:07:14with the slogan
01:07:16deliver,
01:07:17declare,
01:07:18and disclose
01:07:18has officially passed
01:07:21and will be implemented
01:07:22immediately.
01:07:40Cheers.
01:07:41Cheers.
01:07:41Cheers.
01:07:42Congratulations
01:07:43on the huge success
01:07:45of the health care reform.
01:07:47Bring it in, guys.
01:07:51Congrats, you two.
01:07:52Looks like
01:07:53you guys are officially
01:07:53back together.
01:07:55Should I be
01:07:55planning your reunion party?
01:07:57Yeah, that's enough.
01:07:58That's enough.
01:07:58Oh, Miss Pearson,
01:08:00if your father
01:08:01could see you now,
01:08:02he'd be so proud.
01:08:04Aw.
01:08:04Thank you so much, guys.
01:08:09If it hadn't been for you,
01:08:10I don't think my health care reform plan
01:08:13would have passed.
01:08:14Especially you, Ace.
01:08:16I don't know what I would have done without you.
01:08:22Well, I'll, um,
01:08:23always be your rock.
01:08:28Cheers!
01:08:29Heck yeah.
01:08:29Hey.
01:08:30Hey.
01:08:30Hey.
01:08:43Hey.
01:08:45Were you looking for me?
01:08:47Josh is out there drinking like a wild animal,
01:08:49and he's trying to make everyone join him.
01:08:52I'll just keep me an eye on him.
01:08:55I don't have any time to waste on that stuff.
01:08:59I guess I have to
01:09:00reserve all my energy for you.
01:09:04All right.
01:09:06Mr. Atkins,
01:09:08your duties as a bodyguard
01:09:10are officially over.

01:10:04What?
01:10:04After everything we've been through, Ace, I thought we were past this.
01:10:09I know, but I, uh...
01:10:11But what?
01:10:12But what?
01:10:13I just, uh...
01:10:17I don't think we should rush into this.

01:18:12I am here to stay.
01:18:15Got it?
01:18:15I love you so much.
01:18:17I'm sorry.
01:18:19I'm sorry.
01:18:19I'm sorry.
01:18:37Nothing feels uncomfortable?
01:18:39Come on, don't try and be tough.
01:18:40No, this one's more comfortable than the last one, actually.
01:18:45So, you know, I wouldn't blame you if you didn't want to do this.
01:18:49I'm disabled and I might become a burden to you when we're older.
01:18:54Have you thought about that?
01:18:55If you ever say something so pessimistic again, I will twist your ear off.
01:19:03I love Ace Atkins.
01:19:05The person, not the leg.
01:19:08So what if you're missing a leg?
01:19:09I will love you all the same.
01:19:11Would you leave me if I was missing a leg?
01:19:16No.
01:19:17No, of course not.
01:19:19I'll always be by your side.
01:19:22Then let me do the same.
01:19:23I am choosing you, okay?
01:19:30Got it.
01:19:45Miss Pearson.
01:19:47Your compensation clause for critical illness has saved my daughter's life.
01:19:53Miss Pearson, your health care reform plan has been a great success, making you the most popular CEO in the U.S.
01:20:01What made you insist on health care reform despite everyone's doubts?
01:20:05I was able to overcome many obstacles and achieve reform success, partly due to great planning, but also because of my fiancé, Ace Atkins.
01:20:16His love helped me overcome all difficulties.
