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 swingled 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 hate me.
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 send us.
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 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.
00:01:56I didn't mean to retreat.
00:01:57Luca, look at her.
00:01:59She's hardly a threat.
00:02:01She's hardly a threat.
00:02:07For the flowers, and for the interruption, my apologies.
00:02:13Senor Mancini, Mr. Marco had a widow named Ava Jackson.
00:02:27And she was carrying his child.
00:02:29Get the car.
00:02:31Let me bring my daughter-in-law home, where she belongs.
00:02:36Don't worry, little one.
00:02:46We'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?
00:03:09Don'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.
00:03:18Of course I'm keeping it.
00:03:20Ever 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.
00:03:42I 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.
00:03:55I'm gonna stomp out that little bastard right now.
00:04:00Send him straight to hell.
00:04:02So he can say hello to his deadbeat dad.
00:04:05Hex!
00:04:06Hex!
00:04:08What the hell is going on here? Who the hell are you people?
00:04:21Ava, right?
00:04:23You were here this morning.
00:04:24Enough, Luca.
00:04:25She's hardly up there.
00:04:26Ma'am?
00:04:27I'm Helena Mancini.
00:04:28Marco's mother.
00:04:29That means I'm your baby's grandmother.
00:04:30The most powerful mafia family in the country.
00:04:31Oh.
00:04:32Marco was my oldest.
00:04:33I'm your baby's grandmother.
00:04:34The most powerful mafia family in the country.
00:04:36Oh.
00:04:37Marco was my oldest.
00:04:38He was my golden boy.
00:04:39I am so sorry that he concealed his identity from you.
00:04:41You have endured far too much suffering because of it.
00:04:56Plain make-believe mancini?
00:04:57Yeah.
00:04:58Seriously.
00:04:59Like, is anybody here actually buying this?
00:05:00Question my identity again and my men will make sure your other leg looks like your first
00:05:01one.
00:05:02Ah!
00:05:03Permanently.
00:05:04Ah!
00:05:05What are you doing?
00:05:06Derek, run!
00:05:07Maybe we should just go.
00:05:08Because...
00:05:09Ah!
00:05:10Ah!
00:05:11Ah!
00:05:12Ah!
00:05:13Ah!
00:05:14Ah!
00:05:15Ah!
00:05:16Ah!
00:05:17Ah!
00:05:18Ah!
00:05:19Ah!
00:05:20Ah!
00:05:21Ah!
00:05:22Ah!
00:05:23Ah!
00:05:24Ah!
00:05:25Ah!
00:05:26Ah!
00:05:27Ah!
00:05:28Ah!
00:05:29Ah!
00:05:30Ah!
00:05:31Ah!
00:05:32Arthur.
00:05:33One moment, dear.
00:05:35Anyone who raises a hand to my daughter-in-law deserves to have their fingers snapped.
00:05:41One by one.
00:05:45Come along, Lydia.
00:05:50Let's get you home.
00:05:51You're a real home.
00:05:53Welcome home, Signora Eva Minicini.
00:06:17This is where Marco lives.
00:06:19And 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.
00:06:38We pledge your absolute dedication to your health and well-being, Signora.
00:06:45Four days of working multiple jobs are over, my dear.
00:06:49Ten million dollars is a little spending money.
00:06:54Thank you, but I can't accept this.
00:06:57I married Marco for love, not for his fortune.
00:07:02Practical 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.
00:07:20It's a flower girl in the cemetery.
00:07:23Luca, come meet Eva, your brother's wife.
00:07:27Please, show her proper respect.
00:07:34You walk back into a Mancini household.
00:07:37You're either incredibly stupid or incredibly brave.
00:07:41Luca, open this door immediately.
00:07:45Everyone around back, now.
00:07:50Who are you, really?
00:07:56I'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 end game 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?
00:08:38Question me on you, Luca.
00:08:39Don't you dare question my child?
00:08:41That's my girl.
00:08:43Backbone of steel.
00:08:45Are you hurt?
00:08:47Luca, you are too rude.
00:08:50Ava is a good girl.
00:08:52You are falsely accusing her.
00:08:54Come on, Sweeney.
00:08:55Mom's going to take you and get some clothes.
00:08:57Pay no attention to this fool.
00:09:03You may be fooling them,
00:09:05and we'll find out about you and I will expose you.
00:09:23These 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.
00:09:32It's all on Luca's card.
00:09:35Treat my dear daughter-in-law well.
00:09:37I'm trying to be open and honest.
00:09:50This weight on my chest, I don't want it.
00:09:55Oh, isn't she gorgeous?
00:10:20She's adequate.
00:10:21Always the tough guy act with you.
00:10:26Your 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.
00:10:38Mom?
00:10:40Mom?
00:10:41That's too generous.
00:10:43Nonsense.
00:10:44We're family now.
00:10:47I am putting Luca's contact info into your phone.
00:10:51Reach out to him, whatever you need, and don't worry.
00:10:56He's actually quite a softie.
00:10:59Now, shall we continue shopping?
00:11:01Yes.
00:11:02Yes.
00:11:03Sir?
00:11:04Yes.
00:11:05Your mother has spent approximately $15 million on Miss Jackson in the last week alone.
00:11:13God.
00:11:14In mere days, she has swung the daughter 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.
00:11:26Yes.
00:11:27I want everything on her.
00:11:28Everything!
00:11:29If she is playing us for fools, then I will personally ensure that she regrets ever hearing the name Manchino.
00:11:33I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:11:34I hate to put extra stress on your shoulders, but we need to discuss the incredible cost of your husband's care and how the bill will be paid.
00:11:40I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:11:41I hate to put extra stress on your shoulders, but we need to discuss the incredible cost of your husband's care and how the bill will be paid.
00:11:56Limited edition is perfect for you.
00:11:59Michael, you just focus on getting better, okay?
00:12:07Don't worry about the bills.
00:12:09I've got it covered.
00:12:18Your brother married Miss Jackson under false pretenses.
00:12:21She worked several jobs to make that money.
00:12:24And when your brother got sick, she worked to pay off his medical bills.
00:12:28And then day and night for his funeral.
00:12:31Did I get her all wrong?
00:12:45Hello?
00:12:46Mother is unwell.
00:12:47You need to return home immediately.
00:12:51What's wrong with Mom?
00:12:53Is she hurt?
00:12:58Mom?
00:13:00What's going on?
00:13:06Ava, please don't be angry.
00:13:09We just had to get you here.
00:13:16What are you doing?
00:13:17Since you won't help us financially, we had to find another solution.
00:13:20Victor Fang.
00:13:22That old loan shark's willing to give us $80,000 just to marry you.
00:13:31Are you insane?
00:13:34I'm pregnant.
00:13:35Your husband's dead, Ava.
00:13:37Why keep his baby?
00:13:38Think about your family.
00:13:39Mr. Fang is waiting.
00:13:40Don't make this harder than it needs to be.
00:13:45You are not selling me off to Victor Fang!
00:13:50If she dies, how will you provide for this child?
00:13:56She's calling someone!
00:13:57Hello?
00:14:11Ava's in danger.
00:14:12We need to move.
00:14:13Go, go, go!
00:14:27You think someone's coming to save you?
00:14:33You think someone's coming to save you?
00:14:40Who dares manhandle my future bride?
00:14:43Mr. Fang.
00:14:44Oh, it's such a pleasure.
00:14:45This is Ava, my sister, who we discussed.
00:14:49Two for the price of one, I see.
00:14:51Oh, it's just some dead guy's kit.
00:14:53If you want, I can take care of it right now.
00:14:55We could offer you a discount, and I think $60,000 is more than fair.
00:14:59Pennies!
00:15:00For somebody of your wealth!
00:15:01Derek, you're sick!
00:15:02I'm your sister!
00:15:03This is your nephew!
00:15:04My 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.
00:15:15Now, dear.
00:15:17Just take this right here, and it'll make things easier for everybody.
00:15:22Oh, okay!
00:15:23You're a little feisty, I see.
00:15:28Maybe you just need a little personal attention.
00:15:30Come on.
00:15:31Get out of my way!
00:15:32I always knew Ava was trouble.
00:15:33Her husband's barely cold, and she already hasn't done it yet.
00:15:36Who the hell do you think you are?
00:15:37Who the hell do you think you are?
00:15:38Agh!

00:19:45I'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.
00:20:15Look, you're going to need protection.
00:20:20You'll accompany her.
00:20:24No, no, no, no, no. I can manage on my own.
00:20:30In the morning, 10 a.m., I'll be at the entrance.
00:20:42You know that I can talk to your manager for you.
00:20:44Make sure that they accommodate every need.
00:20:46No need. I don't want any special treatments.
00:20:50But, thank you for that ride.
00:20:54No, Ava, you do not need to be afraid of me.
00:20:57I can help you.
00:20:59Whenever you need.
00:21:00Why is she even back?
00:21:20Your pregnant belly ruins the source of static.
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?
00:21:32Make her move some stock around?
00:21:34And if something happens to her or the baby, you want that liability?
00:21:38We 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?
00:22:17Should I have the car brought around for your next meeting?
00:22:26Can I cancel the meeting?
00:22:31I've been meaning to talk to you.
00:22:33Given your, um, condition.
00:22:36I've been worried about potential liability issues.
00:22:39My pregnancy will not affect my performance.
00:22:41I 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.
00:22:51Sell one million dollars worth of merchandise by today.
00:22:55And 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.
00:23:00I know you can do it.
00:23:30Then once you're coming, scale a love, otherwise you built a hole with us.
00:23:36They may be blinding me, just wait and see.
00:23:40Sir, 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.
00:24:00But I have been neglecting my own wardrobe.
00:24:03And 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.
00:24:10And I should do some personal shopping, shouldn't I?
00:24:19Sir, may I assist you?
00:24:21Sir, this limited edition silk tie would go perfect with your complexion.
00:24:25Sir, I'd be happy to take your measurements, personally.
00:24:28Sir, as store manager, I would be honored to assist you with your needs myself.
00:24:35I'd actually like Miss Jackson to assist me.
00:24:38I hear her taste in men's fashion is exceptional.
00:24:45Shall we begin?
00:24:46Right this way, sir.
00:24:47All right, I just need to take your measurements.
00:24:57Whoa, what are you doing?
00:24:59Your measurement bucket?
00:25:02I just needed you to take the jacket off.
00:25:04Well, we don't have much time.
00:25:11Should I ask you?
00:25:13I know.
00:25:17Now, imagine me like this.
00:25:26Okay.
00:25:27Mm-hmm.
00:25:47Ava, time is almost up.
00:26:09I did it.
00:26:10I saved my job.
00:26:11And I made a new sales record.
00:26:16There's no reason to thank me.
00:26:17I'm here to help.
00:26:19Whenever you need it.
00:26:21I hate to do this, but...
00:26:24Ava Jackson...
00:26:26You're fired.
00:26:29What?
00:26:30No.
00:26:32I met your target and then some.
00:26:34Oh.
00:26:35That last sale?
00:26:36The one that put you over the top?
00:26:38That was actually mine.
00:26:40You're trying to steal my commission?
00:26:41Well, that won't work because everyone in this store saw me make that sale.
00:26:47I get it.
00:26:47I get it.
00:26:52You threaten them into silence.
00:26:54Well, that won't work either.
00:26:55Because the security cameras caught everything.
00:26:58Security cameras?
00:27:00What 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 guys, you all saw Ava, didn't you?
00:27:23Yeah, we all saw it.
00:27:26So someone should call security.
00:27:28Better yet, call the police.
00:27:29I'm sorry, sir, but we're closed for the day.
00:27:40I heard that this store got trashed.
00:27:42I'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?
00:27:49I'm sorry.
00:28:19Please stop.
00:28:44I admit it, I was wrong.
00:28:46Who really damaged the merchandise in this store?
00:28:48The items that you destroyed are worth over several millions of dollars.
00:28:52That's five years in prison.
00:28:57Luca, what happened?
00:28:58There's nothing more talking about.
00:29:00We need to go.
00:29:00And by the way, you're fired.
00:29:03Let's go.
00:29:04Mom could just do it.
00:29:05How 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.
00:29:26A man who will be serving time in a jail cell.
00:29:28Justice is served.
00:29:30That's my boy.
00:29:35Sweetheart, I would like you to concentrate full-time on your pregnancy right now.
00:29:39All of this work drama can wait until after my grandchild is born safely.
00:29:45Yes, Mommy.
00:29:46I transferred five million dollars into your personal account for prenatal care.
00:29:52I am worried about the baby's well-being.
00:29:55Luca, I'd like you to take her to the doctor tomorrow for an exam.
00:30:00No.
00:30:01That's really not necessary.
00:30:06I have those meetings in Europe, so possibly I could have someone to substitute in.
00:30:10I'm perfectly capable of going by myself.
00:30:14I, uh, I don't want to travel, Luca, with something so routine.
00:30:20It'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.
00:30:30No.
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.
00:31:48Quite the expressive child already.
00:31:52The baby's at 18 weeks, now developing beautifully.
00:32:10For home care, I recommend plenty of rest, nutrient-rich foods, and tactile bonding when possible.
00:32:18Tactile bonding?
00:32:19Tactile bonding?
00:32:20Yes.
00:32:21Um, it's quite beneficial for fetal development.
00:32:24Come over here and place your hands on her belly.
00:32:26Um, doctor, is that really appropriate?
00:32:30What's inappropriate about it?
00:32:32This is what husbands do.
00:32:37Okay.
00:32:38I'm sorry, did I hurt you?
00:32:53No, no, it just feels strange.
00:32:57Like this.
00:32:59Top to bottom, left to right, gentle strokes.
00:33:03Got it?
00:33:07Got it.
00:33:08Got it.
00:33:10Do this once daily, five to ten minutes each.
00:33:15You can sit up now.
00:33:16No.
00:33:23Huh.
00:33:24So, everything good with the baby?
00:33:26Any special instructions I should know about?
00:33:29Nothing.
00:33:30Nothing, no.
00:33:31The doctor did say that the baby is developing beautifully, and there's nothing to worry about.
00:33:37Good news, then.
00:33:40Before I forget, the Rossi family's daughter is having her birthday celebration next weekend, and we should all attend.
00:33:49The Rossi family?
00:33:51Technically, 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.
00:34:03Mom, please.
00:34:04Miss Sofia Rossi has arrived unannounced.
00:34:09She shows up without calling?
00:34:11How gauche.
00:34:13Should we send Ava upstairs?
00:34:15No, no, it's fine. I'm here. We can just...
00:34:20Good evening, Mrs. Mancini.
00:34:22Luca, I came to personally deliver my birthday invitation.
00:34:25Okay.
00:34:30Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:31Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:33Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:34Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:34:35Rossi's family lack of manners ever disappoints me.
00:34:38Luca Mancini, how dare you speak to me like that?
00:34:41Ms. Rossi, right?
00:34:43I've heard so much about your family.
00:34:46I'm Ava, Marco's wife. Marco was Luca's brother.
00:34:52Oh, okay. I thought you were carrying Luca's baby.
00:34:58That's good, because we're nice.
00:35:01I came all this way to bring you that, and this is how you welcome me?
00:35:05Don't disappoint me at the party, darling.
00:35:07Wear something sharp.
00:35:09Yes.
00:35:21See if there's any connection between that pregnant woman and Luca.
00:35:24I'm not buying this whole sister-in-law act for one second.
00:35:27You got it.
00:35:33You look so handsome.
00:35:34Well, well, well.
00:35:39It looks like my stubborn son has good taste after all.
00:35:44Luca did an excellent job selecting this gown.
00:35:46It is perfect for you.
00:35:48Luca picked this?
00:35:53I've never been anywhere this fancy before.
00:35:56I might embarrass you guys.
00:35:59Don't even worry about it.
00:36:01You are my pride and joy.
00:36:03Besides, Luca will be with us the whole time,
00:36:06and he'll make sure everything runs smoothly.
00:36:12Luca?
00:36:13What about her shoes?
00:36:14How could you forget something so basic?
00:36:16What are you say?
00:36:17Right 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, sure.
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.
00:37:28This is my birthday party.
00:37:31I'm supposed to be the center of attention, not some pregnant woman.
00:37:37Maybe we shouldn't cross a scene here.
00:37:40It's fine.
00:37:41She's always like this.
00:37:43Thanks.
00:37:44We didn't mean to steal your spotlight.
00:37:48An apology simply isn't enough.
00:37:50Since you're Luca's sister-in-law, why 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?
00:38:00Retail clerk?
00:38:01Cleaning 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.
00:38:23There'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, just waiting for her to crash and burn.
00:38:53I was just playing for the baby.
00:38:56I think he recognized the music you were playing for us earlier.
00:39:01Well, maybe you should teach me sometime properly.
00:39:05I'd like to play for you both.
00:39:09Um, because Mom did tell me to look after you, so it's the least that I can do.
00:39:15Ava, ava, ava-a-va, ava-a-va.
00:39:16Okay.
00:39:17Okay.
00:39:18Let's go.
00:39:26Okay.
00:39:27And there.
00:39:28And there.
00:39:29There.
00:39:59They'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.
00:40:23The continents.
00:40:24Cheers.
00:40:29Sir, that drink is almost certainly drugged.
00:40:32Obviously.
00:40:33Is the Rossi family making a move against us?
00:40:35These tensions have been simmering for years.
00:40:38Should we respond preemptively?
00:40:44Do nothing.
00:40:45You just need to focus on protecting Ava.
00:40:48We'll see what they have planned.
00:40:56Darling, you look tired.
00:40:59I don't think all this excitement is good for your condition.
00:41:02Why don't you try to find Luca and let's get you home.
00:41:29Sofia's bedroom.
00:41:30Why is Luca's phone in there?
00:41:32And why am I jealous?
00:41:34I've wanted Luca for years.
00:41:36And then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks?
00:41:37You won't look so innocent when everyone sees you in bed next to your dead husband's
00:41:38path.
00:41:39You won't look so innocent when everyone sees you in bed next to your dead husband's
00:41:40path.
00:41:41This isn't exactly how you wanted it.
00:41:42This isn't exactly how you wanted it.
00:41:43Not at all.
00:41:44This isn't convincing.
00:41:45Unbutton their clothes.
00:41:46This isn't convincing.
00:41:47Unbutton their clothes.
00:41:52Sal, position them closer together.
00:41:53Make it look more intimate.
00:41:54I'm sorry.
00:41:55I'm sorry.
00:41:56I'm sorry.
00:41:57I'm sorry.
00:41:58I've wanted Luca for years.
00:41:59And then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks.
00:42:01You won't look so innocent when everyone sees you in bed next to your dead husband's
00:42:05path.
00:42:06This isn't exactly how you wanted it.
00:42:08Not at all.
00:42:09This isn't convincing.
00:42:10Unbutton their clothes.
00:42:15Sal, position them closer together.
00:42:21Make it look more intimate.
00:42:27Perfect.
00:42:28Let's go.
00:42:29Our masterpiece is complete.
00:42:31Now we just have to bring in an audience.
00:42:34I expected much more than just this juvenile prank from my business partner.
00:42:58Ava, wake up.
00:43:01Ava.
00:43:03Ava.
00:43:04Oh my god.
00:43:05What happened to us?
00:43:06This is bad.
00:43:12Oh my God.
00:43:16What happened to us?
00:43:24This is bad.
00:43:36If anyone sees us like this, they'll immediately assume the worst.
00:43:42Luca, wake up.
00:43:56People are coming.
00:43:57You're acting like we had some tort affair.
00:43:59We didn't do anything wrong, so why are you worrying?
00:44:02I'm your late brother's widow and I'm carrying his child.
00:44:05If anyone sees us like this, the Mancini family name won't be destroyed.
00:44:09Okay.
00:44:10Okay.
00:44:11Okay.
00:44:12Oh, so Mancini name is what you're concerned about, is that it?
00:44:16Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:44:18You haven't answered.
00:44:19Can you dance with me?
00:44:23Thank 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.
00:44:32I have just discovered Luca Mancini in a rather compromising position with his brother's pregnant widow.
00:44:42In my bedroom.
00:44:43Can you let go?
00:44:44They're coming.
00:44:45Okay.
00:44:46Here, I got this.
00:44:47Watch out.
00:44:48Wait, stop.
00:44:49Watch.
00:44:50They're right there.
00:44:51If we walk through that door, we'll walk right into their trap.
00:44:52Okay, then what's your brilliant idea?
00:44:53Yes, ma'am.
00:44:54Um, let's go through the window.
00:44:55We can climb down.
00:44:56Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:44:57No, I'm afraid of heights.
00:44:58You're what?
00:44:59Sorry, I just didn't realize the great Luca Mancini.
00:45:00Look at that.
00:45:01They're coming.
00:45:02Come on up.
00:45:03Okay.
00:45:04They're coming.
00:45:05Come on up.
00:45:06Hey, come on up.
00:45:07You're coming.
00:45:08Come on up.
00:45:09Yeah, I got this.
00:45:10Watch out.
00:45:11Wait, stop.
00:45:12Watch, they're right there.
00:45:13If we walk through that door, we'll walk right into their trap.
00:45:15Okay, then what's your brilliant idea?
00:45:17Yes, ma'am?
00:45:18I'm sorry. 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.
00:45:31What the hell's to do?
00:45:34Miss Lucy, where are these cheaters you promised to expose?
00:45:37Shh, keep 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.
00:45:45Let's go, let's go, let's go.
00:45:48Okay.
00:45:49Hurry, hurry.
00:45:54No, no, no, don't run. We have to catch them in the act first.
00:45:57Are you insane? Your house is on fire.
00:45:59Who cares about the gossip? Let her get out of here.
00:46:02No, no, no, no, I'll help everyone leave afterwards, but first let's get a look at them.
00:46:05Come on.
00:46:18What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:46:31I am so sorry. It was an accident, please.
00:46:34I'm fine, it's fine.
00:46:35Are you okay?
00:46:36Yeah.
00:46:38The staff prepared everything for you, and there's hot water in there.
00:46:46And what about you?
00:46:47We'll just be out here, taking guard for you.
00:46:51Now go on, it's warm.
00:46:53Thanks.
00:46:55Dammit.
00:47:25What is it?
00:47:28Uh, Miss Rossi is demanding to see you, sir.
00:47:31She's quite insistent.
00:47:33Okay, let her run.
00:47:38You set off these fire alarms and completely scared away my guests!
00:47:41You've ruined my birthday celebration!
00:47:44Hey!
00:47:54You will take full responsibility for what you did.
00:47:58The drugging, the setup, all of it.
00:48:00And if you ever threaten Ava again, directly or indirectly,
00:48:05I will end the Rossi family from this city permanently.
00:48:09You're a monster.
00:48:11That's her in there, isn't it?
00:48:12Ava?
00:48:13Your dead brother's wife?
00:48:15How dare you?
00:48:17Ew, get your hands off of me!
00:48:19Do you know who I am?
00:48:21Uh...
00:48:35Luca...?
00:48:36Luca?
00:48:47Luca, it's me.
00:48:49You're so close.
00:48:51Is this a dream?
00:48:59Luca, I'm your brother's wife.
00:49:02So this isn't a dream.
00:49:04I, um...
00:49:06Ava...
00:49:07I've had feelings for you for so long.
00:49:10And I've tried to keep them a secret, but I...
00:49:13I can't keep them any longer.
00:49:16And now you know my two secrets, and by family code...
00:49:21I have to silence the person who discovers my weaknesses.
00:49:26Luca, let me go.
00:49:28No, no, no, but I can't silence you because, Ava, I have fallen in love with you.
00:49:33Oh God, that's not funny.
00:49:37Look, I've never been more serious.
00:49:41Look, Ava, every time I come around you, I...
00:49:45I feel myself slipping.
00:49:48And my feelings have crossed that line months ago.
00:49:50Stop, stop, just stop.
00:49:55I'll forget this ever happened.
00:49:57No, Ava.
00:49:59I want to take care of you.
00:50:01And the baby.
00:50:03For the rest of my life.
00:50:12Luca, I...
00:50:14I know that you try, but you can't let me in.
00:50:20Luca, what's going on? Why isn't Ava home?
00:50:25What's going on here?
00:50:26Mom, I think...
00:50:27Nothing.
00:50:29My clothes were dirty, so Luca prepared for me a shower and clean clothes.
00:50:34Oh, thank goodness.
00:50:37The last thing we need is for you to catch pneumonia.
00:50:39Yeah, I know.
00:50:41Ava, I think that we should probably...
00:50:43Luca...
00:50:46It's almost Marco's birthday.
00:50:49Let's visit his grave.
00:50:52He is your brother and my husband.
00:50:55And 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.
00:51:04These Rossi's are nothing but trouble.
00:51:06We need to accelerate our plans against them.
00:51:20Marco...
00:51:23I miss you.
00:51:24I feel so lost without you.
00:51:33Would you hate me...
00:51:36If 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.
00:51:57And I want to help you get through this.
00:51:59And I want to protect you.
00:52:01Marco and Mom...
00:52:04They would both understand.
00:52:07Ava, I love you.
00:52:08I love you.
00:52:23I understand how difficult this is.
00:52:27Your loyalty for Marco...
00:52:29And your concern for my mother, that is the compassion that...
00:52:32That's the reason I fell in love with you.
00:52:38There's 30 million dollars on this credit card.
00:52:41And the pin number is your birthday.
00:52:44Been through eps and flows.
00:52:46So let's get by, felt like the end.
00:52:49Can't deny, I can't pretend.
00:52:52That this fire burns again.
00:52:54Once again.
00:52:56Illuminated rain.
00:52:58I feel alive.
00:53:01One more time, our worlds collide.
00:53:04Watch them circling in the sky.
00:53:07We are magnetic sides.
00:53:11I'm falling away from you.
00:53:13No one loves me like you do.
00:53:16Thought that you and I were through, but...
00:53:19The 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...
00:53:38Actually, he's not exactly my...
00:53:41No need to be embarrassed.
00:53:43The way that man looks at you is something special.
00:53:50Now face each other.
00:53:52Helena, take her hands.
00:53:54Deep inhale.
00:53:56And lean into each other.
00:53:59Using each other's weight to support you.
00:54:02Come up.
00:54:09On the exhale, do a gentle squat.
00:54:15And then share and embrace.
00:54:17You have anything?
00:54:18Who exactly are you welcoming home, dear daughter-in-law?
00:54:32I was just talking nonsense.
00:54:35What happens?
00:54:45I'll get it.
00:54:51Miss, flowers from Mr. Mancini.
00:55:05I wonder if he's doing well out there.
00:55:27I wonder if he's doing well out there.
00:55:29You have a nervous look on your face when you're starting to think that you're talking too much.
00:55:35I 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.
00:55:50Mom, what are you doing here?
00:55:56I've missed you terribly, sweetheart.
00:55:58I just wanted to check on you and the baby.
00:56:01Look.
00:56:05Fresh oranges.
00:56:07Just pick today.
00:56:09You need the vitamin C for the baby's development.
00:56:12I'm on a very carefully monitored diet.
00:56:15You wasted a trip.
00:56:16Look.
00:56:21I know that you haven't forgiven me.
00:56:23But you have to understand.
00:56:25Derek 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?
00:56:35That's not rehash the past.
00:56:37Of course.
00:56:39I picked these up for my grandchild.
00:56:42Aren't they precious?
00:56:43That baby that you're carrying is my family, too.
00:56:49I love them so much already.
00:56:52Look, I stood up for you to Derek.
00:56:55And he threw me out.
00:56:57I had absolutely nothing left.
00:57:08This card contains all the money I've saved.
00:57:11It'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. I 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.
00:57:31You're carrying the Mancini heir and all they've given you is $10,000.
00:57:34That is my personal savings.
00:57:37I haven't asked the Mancini's for a cent.
00:57:39Okay, this is completely unacceptable!
00:57:42Everyone in this city knows that the Mancini's are loaded beyond belief.
00:57:48Come on!
00:57:50You need to milk this situation for all it's worth.
00:57:52Honey, I'm...
00:57:53I'm only thinking about your future and your security. I mean, what happens if they throw you out once the baby arrives?
00:58:09I didn't marry into the Mancini family for their fortune. And you mention their money one more time, you'll never see me again.
00:58:19Understand?
00:58:20I understand, sweetheart. Mom won't say another word about it.
00:58:30$10,000? That's it? That's pocket change for them!
00:58:34She must be holding down on this.
00:58:38That ungrateful little brat! I tried everything! I couldn't squeeze another penny out of her.
00:58:44She's swimming in Mancini money, and we're here struggling. After what they did to my leg, I should be getting millions!
00:58:51Yes! A few million? It's just the beginning. We've been thinking too small.
00:59:09I have good reason to believe that we have a common enemy. I think we should work together.
00:59:12Miss Mancini has been sleeping well, sir. She 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, two 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.
00:59:39Oh. It's good to hear that she's eating healthy.
00:59:42And then she finally attended the prenatal concert we arranged, and afterwards she spoke with one of the pianists about the compositions.
00:59:50Is it man or woman?
00:59:52Sir, per your instructions, they were all talented women. No exceptions.
00:59:55And she actually mentioned you today. While making hot chocolate, she said to the chef,
01:00:01It's never quite as good as Luca's.
01:00:04She always knows what to say.
01:00:07I'll make her a batch right now, and we can have it delivered.
01:00:10Great. I'll arrange your private courier right away.
01:00:14Luca is almost finished with his business. Hopefully, he will make it home in time for the birth.
01:00:26Mrs. Mancini, it's terrible news. Luca's jet has been destroyed amid a flight. He's missing.
01:00:32What?
01:00:34Every detail immediately.
01:00:35Yes, ma'am.
01:00:38Ava, breathe. Breathe. Don't panic. Don't panic. Luca has always been lucky. He's gonna be fine. He will.
01:00:50Hello?
01:00:51I have Luca Mancini. 20 million dollars cash for his safe return. No police, no family, no security team. You come alone, or he dies. You have 24 hours.
01:01:08Oh, Ava, are you okay? Who was that?
01:01:11It's nothing, nothing. I'm just dizzy. The baby. So I'm gonna go upstairs and lie down.
01:01:19I'm gonna go upstairs and lie down.
01:01:38Money first.
01:01:39Oww.
01:01:48Ow.
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.
01:02:04yeah with her as our bargaining chip we can demand a hundred million dollars
01:02:28you are so you just don't get it do you you're just some brat that mom found on the street
01:02:52that she brought home to be our living servant
01:02:54not even your birth mother wanted you yeah we brought you in we fed you we clothed you
01:03:06and in return your life belongs to us oh and uh by the way since we're being honest with each other
01:03:15right now my whole leg injury it's kind of my fault but it was a great excuse to get you to
01:03:22basically give up your life and be our slave all these years
01:03:26you know what
01:03:31even though you're nothing but a bunch of orphan trash you're actually very beautiful
01:03:40so since we're giving up this whole brother sister role play thing

01:04:26Oh god, you're alive. You're okay.
01:04:41My plane blew up.
01:04:47Ava gets kidnapped. This isn't a coincidence.
01:04:50Who are you looking for?
01:04:52Answer me!
01:04:56Hey, make them stop. He's your brother. They'll kill him.
01:05:02You just told me I'm an orphan, so he's not really my new brother.
01:05:05You better tell me who your accomplices are, or he stops breathing.
01:05:09You two should be ashamed of yourselves.
01:05:12Dad, see the way that you look at each other?
01:05:14He's your dead husband's brother.
01:05:17You're a betrayed, Marco, and his mother.
01:05:22Are you alright? Hey, hey, hey, you okay?
01:05:24Yeah, yeah.
01:05:26Your mom has been so kind to me, and I dragged her into this mess.
01:05:31It's on my floor.
01:05:33Your mother-in-law took you in.
01:05:36She treated you like a daughter.
01:05:37She gave you everything that you could ever want,
01:05:39and this is how you repay her?
01:05:41By falling for her younger son?
01:05:43Have you already forgotten Marco?
01:05:46It is his grave.
01:05:47What is wrong with you?
01:05:49I want her as my daughter-in-law.
01:05:54First my eldest son's wife, and now my youngest.
01:05:59Object to them, and you'll lose your tongue.
01:06:04You couldn't have Luca, so you decided to try and kill him?
01:06:21Good thing he changed his flight plan at the last minute, hmm?
01:06:26Cross the Mancini's, and you cease to exist.
01:06:30Release me, my father will burn your empire to the ground.
01:06:37Don't you wonder why my son was gone all that time?
01:06:43Your family's power?
01:06:47Already gone.
01:06:48You two have risked everything to be together.
01:07:05I can see that Luca's devotion is absolute.
01:07:10You have endured far too much pain.
01:07:16It's time to let him take care of you.
01:07:18But, Marco, I made a promise to him.
01:07:23And Marco would want your happiness above all else.
01:07:30He will rest easier,
01:07:32knowing that we are protecting you and your child.
01:07:41From this moment forward,
01:07:43I swear to you, nobody will ever hurt you again.
01:07:50Luca, you're bleeding.
01:07:51You gotta keep this clean.
01:07:57Yeah.
01:07:58Infections can get nasty.
01:08:01Okay.
01:08:03So you're saying that you care about me, then?
01:08:06Shut up.
01:08:08Of course I care.
01:08:13All right.
01:08:15Wait.
01:08:15Wait.
01:08:15I think he likes you.
01:08:43Yeah.
01:08:43Ava,
01:08:48I will take care of you.
01:08:52And the baby.
01:08:53Just let my brother hold out.
01:08:55I brought some fruit for you and the...
01:08:57Luca!
01:09:01She's pregnant.
01:09:03Be gentle with her.
01:09:07I think maybe you should get some rest.
01:09:10Okay.
01:09:13Oh, wait.
01:09:18What is it?
01:09:19I think I'm in labor.
01:09:21Oh my God.
01:09:22Come on.
01:09:22Come on.
01:09:24Take easy sleep.
01:09:25Oh.
01:09:29What is taking so long?
01:09:31Is something wrong?
01:09:32She's gone into labor early.
01:09:34Have you two been intimate recently?
01:09:37Well, we didn't exactly.
01:09:40I mean, not completely.
01:09:42I warned you to be careful with her.
01:09:44What can we do now?
01:09:46The medication isn't working as we'd hoped.
01:09:49There's another approach we could try.
01:09:52Yes.
01:09:52Yes.
01:09:53We'll do anything, Mon.
01:09:53It's no object.
01:09:54Just help her.
01:09:56Some intimate touches can help her relax and feel better.
01:10:04Right here.
01:10:06Right here.
01:10:07Yes.
01:10:08Mom, I can't.
01:10:13Just whip it out.
01:10:15Don't do it.
01:10:17Hurry it up.
01:10:17what do you do?
01:10:20Oh.
01:10:21Oh, God.
01:10:24No.
01:10:25I was.
01:10:26No.
01:10:27I was.
01:10:28No.
01:10:29No?
01:10:35No.
01:10:35It's all right.
01:10:36No.
01:10:39No.
01:10:40No.
01:10:40I hope things are going smoothly in there.
01:10:50They've never been together before.
01:10:54Never been together?
01:10:56Then how could she be?
01:10:58The child is my late son's.
01:11:01Luca's brother.
01:11:05You okay?
01:11:07Doctor, please!
01:11:08Doctor, please!
01:11:10I'll go!
01:11:15One, two, three, push!
01:11:18One, two, three, push!
01:11:22One, two, three, push!
01:11:23Push, push, push!
01:11:30My baby!
01:11:32My baby!
01:11:32My baby!
01:11:32Hey, how are you feeling?
01:11:44Good.
01:11:45You want something to eat?
01:11:47Okay.
01:11:48Okay.
01:11:52I thought this hospital was the best that money can buy.
01:11:56I guess I was misinformed.
01:11:58Look, they're doing the best they can.
01:12:01Let's not terrorize the staff.
01:12:06Look, I just don't want to see you in any more pain.
01:12:11You know what, tear me apart?
01:12:19Luca, remember to control yourself, son.
01:12:25Let her recover first.
01:12:31And have you decided what to name this little prince?
01:12:41Marco.
01:12:44Marco.
01:12:45I want to name him Marco.
01:12:46Look, little one.
01:13:10It's your daddy.
01:13:12You're a real daddy.
01:13:20It's remarkable how much he looks like you.
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.
01:13:36And your family.
01:13:41Our family.
01:13:45You know, Marco used to say that if you wanted to think about somebody, you would watch the
01:13:51dandelion.
01:13:52And if the seeds blew out easily, then they were thinking of you, too.
01:13:55I hear you on the radio.
01:14:00On the radio.
01:14:04Miss.
01:14:05Mrs. Mancini's wedding gifts.
01:14:25the finest villas, the Mancini family jewelry, and 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, woman.
01:15:02A 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.
01:15:28Mom, we're at a church, and there are witnesses.
01:15:33What is this?
01:15:34What is this?
01:15:35What is this?
01:15:36What is this?
01:15:38I love this...
01:15:43Number five.
01:15:44How number four.
01:15:47Did you not go in excellent self?
