Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Master Marco had a widow named Ava Jackson, and she was carrying his child.
00:00:07I'm gonna bring my daughter-in-law home, where she belongs.
00:00:12My brother, I will protect your legacy, and I will protect our family.
00:00:18Who are you, really?
00:00:21A mere day she has swung with our family out of millions of dollars.
00:00:26I've wanted Luka for years, and then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks.
00:00:31If I can't have him, I'll destroy him.
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, is this a dream?
00:01:02If anyone sees us like this, they'll immediately send me first.
00:01:07Ava, I have fallen in love with you.
00:01:10I'm your brother's wife.
00:01:12We didn't do anything wrong, so why are you worried?
00:01:14If you knew I had feelings for your brother, would you hate me?
00:01:19I 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, and I will protect our family.
00:01:43Hey, hey, who are you?
00:01:53Which family do you work for?
00:01:54I just came to drop off the flowers, I didn't mean to retreat.
00:01:57Luka, look at her.
00:01:59She's hardly a threat.
00:02:00For the flowers, and for the interruption, my apologies.
00:02:14Mr. Mancini, Mr. Marco had a widow named Ava Jackson, and 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.
00:02:45We'll get through this together.
00:02:48Somehow.
00:02:49Well, looky here.
00:02:53Family 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.
00:03:43I took five jobs.
00:03:44What more could you possibly want?
00:03:45It'll never be enough, Ava.
00:03:47You'll owe us till the day you die.
00:03:50Please, sweetheart.
00:03:53Think of your brother.
00:03:55I'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, Marco's mother.
00:04:28That means I'm your baby's grandmother.
00:04:29The most powerful mafia family in the country.
00:04:30Oh.
00:04:31Oh.
00:04:32Marco was my oldest.
00:04:33He was my golden boy.
00:04:34He was my golden boy.
00:04:35I'm your baby's grandmother.
00:04:36The most powerful mafia family in the country.
00:04:38Oh.
00:04:39Oh.
00:04:40Oh.
00:04:41Oh
00:04:44Oh
00:04:53I'm so sorry that he concealed his identity from you.
00:05:00golden boy. I am so sorry that he concealed his identity from you. You have endured far
00:05:07too much suffering because of it.
00:05:12Plain make-believe Mancini? Seriously, 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
00:05:23one. Permanently.
00:05:27What are you doing?
00:05:28Derrick, run!
00:05:30Maybe we should just go.
00:05:33One moment, dear. Anyone who raises a hand to my daughter-in-law deserves to have their
00:05:40fingers snapped. One by one. Come along, my dear. Let's get you home. To your real home.
00:05:52Ah, ah, far. Hmm, no. Come on. Come on. Come on, dear. Come on. Come on.
00:06:03Welcome home, Signora Eva Manchini.
00:06:17This is where Marco lived.
00:06:21And now, it's your manchini.
00:06:27Allow me to introduce you to your personal staff, Mrs. Manchini.
00:06:33Your 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.
00:06:41Your days of working multiple jobs are over, my dear.
00:06:48Ten million dollars is a little spending money.
00:06:52Well, thank you, but I can't accept this.
00:06:56I married Marco for love, not for his fortune.
00:07:01Practical and principled, my Marco truly had an eye for quality.
00:07:06There is one more member of the family that you need to properly meet.
00:07:11That would be Luca, Marco's younger brother.
00:07:14The brooding iceberg that you encountered this morning.
00:07:17Well, 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.
00:07:32Respect!
00:07:34You walk back into a Manchini household?
00:07:37You're either incredibly stupid or incredibly brave.
00:07:42Luca! Open this door immediately!
00:07:45Everyone around back, now!
00:07:52Who are you, really?
00:07:54I'll be watching your every move, your every breath.
00:08:00So tell me, who are you, really?
00:08:04My brother's dead, and you appear suddenly?
00:08:08Was this your end game all along?
00:08:10Our fortune?
00:08:11I didn't know Marco's a Manchini.
00:08:14And now?
00:08:15I don't need this.
00:08:16I can walk right out those doors.
00:08:17You can't walk anywhere!
00:08:18She's not going anywhere!
00:08:23And get your hands off of her!
00:08:25She is carrying Marco's child.
00:08:28Oh, is she?
00:08:30How do we even know it is Marco's child?
00:08:32Convenient timing, wouldn't you say?
00:08:37Question me on you, Luca.
00:08:38Don't you dare question my child.
00:08:40That's my girl.
00:08:42Backbone of steel.
00:08:44Are you hurt?
00:08:46Luca, you are too rude.
00:08:49Ava is a good girl.
00:08:51You are falsely accusing her.
00:08:53Come on, sweetie.
00:08:54Mom's going to take you and get some clothes.
00:08:56Pay no attention to this fool.
00:09:02You may be fooling them,
00:09:04but I will find out about you and I will expose you.
00:09:21These are all the latest European styles.
00:09:25Take your pick.
00:09:26I have plenty to wear.
00:09:28And these are much too expensive.
00:09:30Oh, not to worry.
00:09:31It's all on Luca's card.
00:09:33Treat my dear daughter-in-law well.
00:09:51Oh, isn't she gorgeous?
00:10:16She's... adequate?
00:10:21Always the tough guy act with you.
00:10:25Your eyes tell a different story, my son.
00:10:28Oh, yes.
00:10:30This is just perfect.
00:10:32We will take one of everything in her size.
00:10:36Mom?
00:10:38Mom?
00:10:40That's too generous.
00:10:42Nonsense.
00:10:43We're family now.
00:10:46I am putting Luca's contact info into your phone.
00:10:50Reach out to him.
00:10:52Whatever you need.
00:10:53And don't worry.
00:10:55He's actually quite a softie.
00:10:58Now, shall we continue shopping?
00:11:00Yes.
00:11:05Sir?
00:11:06Yes?
00:11:07Your mother has spent approximately $15 million on Miss Jackson in the last week alone.
00:11:13God.
00:11:14In mere days, she has swooned our family out of millions of dollars.
00:11:19She's clearly not an amateur.
00:11:20She's also been spending a substantial amount since marrying your brother to pay off her brother's debts.
00:11:26I want everything on her.
00:11:29Everything!
00:11:30If she is playing us for fools, then I will personally ensure that she regrets ever hearing the name Mancino.
00:11:37I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:11:46I hate to put extra stress on your shoulders, but we need to discuss the incredible cost of your husband's care.
00:11:54And how the bill will be paid.
00:11:56Limited edition is perfect for you.
00:11:59Marco, 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?
00:12:52Is she hurt?
00:12:58Mom?
00:13:00What's going on?
00:13:06Eva, 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.
00:13:21Victor Fang.
00:13:22That old long 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, Eva.
00:13:37Why keep his baby?
00:13:38Think about your family.
00:13:39Mr. Fang is waiting.
00:13:41Don't make this harder than it needs to be.
00:13:43You are not selling me off to Victor Fang!
00:13:46If she dies, how will you survive for this child?
00:13:52She's calling someone!
00:13:56She's calling someone!
00:14:05Hello?
00:14:11Ava's in danger.
00:14:12We need to move.
00:14:13Go, go, go!
00:14:26You think someone's coming to save you?
00:14:39Who 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 kid.
00:14:53If you want, I can take care of it right now.
00:14:56We could offer you a discount.
00:14:57I 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, this is your nephew!
00:15:04My son's future is more important to me
00:15:07than 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, just take this right here
00:15:18and it'll make things easier for everybody.
00:15:22Oh, okay!
00:15:24You're a little feisty, I see.
00:15:28Maybe you just need a little personal attention.
00:15:48Get out of my way!
00:15:56I always knew Ava was trouble.
00:15:58Her husband's barely cold and she already hasn't done it.
00:16:02Who the hell do you think you are?
00:16:07I look at Mancini.
00:16:09Mancini, you idiot!
00:16:11You killed me!
00:16:12How did my sister get caught up with the likes of you?
00:16:14Ava is my brother's widow.
00:16:17And her baby is his only child.
00:16:20So it's true?
00:16:22Her baby's the heir to the Mancini family?
00:16:25Looks like your wife is pregnant too.
00:16:27Y-yes!
00:16:28Y-yes, it's true!
00:16:29I-I swear!
00:16:30We-we didn't know!
00:16:31Please, please!
00:16:32You will be dealt with,
00:16:34tenfold,
00:16:35what you did to Ava.
00:16:39Get a doctor!
00:16:40Get a doctor!
00:16:41Get a car!
00:16:42I can't deal with him!
00:17:12Mom!
00:17:13Hey!
00:17:14How's Ava?
00:17:15How's the baby?
00:17:16The doctors are examining her now.
00:17:18Doctor, how is she?
00:17:19Mrs. Mancini has a severe ankle fracture that it needs immediate surgery.
00:17:21The medication could cause a miscarriage.
00:17:22So we need to have consent before we can proceed.
00:17:23Do it!
00:17:24Whatever it takes!
00:17:25No!
00:17:26Doctor, is there any way to do the surgery without anesthesia?
00:17:27No!
00:17:28No!
00:17:29No!
00:17:30No!
00:17:31No!
00:17:32No!
00:17:33No!
00:17:34No!
00:17:35No!
00:17:36No!
00:17:37No!
00:17:38No!
00:17:39No!
00:17:40No!
00:17:41No!
00:17:42No!
00:17:43No!
00:17:44No!
00:17:45No!
00:17:46No!
00:17:47No!
00:17:48Any areas.
00:17:49Ava!
00:17:50You got to discover what you need to do.
00:17:51Do.
00:17:52That's not medically advisable.
00:17:54The pain would be too excruciating.
00:17:59This baby is Marco's only child.
00:18:00His only heir.
00:18:01I can't risk losing it.
00:18:02I can handle the pain.
00:18:03I can't miss losing it.
00:18:06I can handle the pain.
00:18:08Oh, my brave girl.
00:18:11God bless you.
00:18:13You know, I think somebody should be with her during the operation.
00:18:16The pain would be just too intense.
00:18:19I'll stay with her.
00:18:20How'd it go, doctor?
00:18:45It's a success.
00:18:48You're a real trooper, if you don't mind me saying.
00:18:51I guess my brother had good reason to fall for her.
00:19:13Senora Ava, please, let me help you.
00:19:15Okay, right this way only.
00:19:21I know your stay at the hospital could not have been easy for you.
00:19:30That's why I'm having 30% of Mancini Group shares put into your name.
00:19:36No.
00:19:37Mom, I cannot accept that.
00:19:39We're family.
00:19:42It's what you deserve.
00:19:44Actually, I've been thinking about doing something else.
00:19:49I'd like to go back to work.
00:19:50Work?
00:19:53But, but, you're pregnant.
00:19:55Oh, honey, if you need money, I'll just transfer some into your account.
00:19:57No, no, it's not about money.
00:20:00Marco always said that we should make our own way.
00:20:04And I want our child to know his father and know what he valued.
00:20:13You are as stubborn as he was.
00:20:17Look, you're going to need protection.
00:20:19You'll accompany her.
00:20:24No, no, no, no, no.
00:20:25I can manage on my own.
00:20:30In the morning, 10 a.m., I'll be at the entrance.
00:20:33You know that I can talk to your manager for you.
00:20:45Make sure that they accommodate every need.
00:20:47No need.
00:20:48I don't want any special tournaments.
00:20:50But, thank you for that ride.
00:20:54No, Ava, you do not need to be afraid of me.
00:20:58I can help you.
00:20:59Whenever you need.
00:21:03Why is she even back?
00:21:21That pregnant belly ruins the store's aesthetic.
00:21:23These pregnant women know exactly what they're doing.
00:21:26Hiding behind maternity protections.
00:21:29We can't legally fire her.
00:21:30Could you reassign her to the warehouse?
00:21:32Maybe move some stock around?
00:21:34And if something happens to her or the baby, you want that liability?
00:21:39We 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?
00:22:23Should I have the car brought around for your next meeting?
00:22:26Yes, at the meeting.
00:22:27I've been meaning to talk to you, given your, um, condition.
00:22:36I've been worried about potential liability issues.
00:22:39My pregnancy will not affect my performance.
00:22:42I do not intend to take advantage of company policy.
00:22:45Oh, you'd like to hear that.
00:22:49Then 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.
00:23:09To all the doubters, doubters, to those who don't believe, this is the hour, hour, you'll see.
00:23:21Sir, half an hour until closing, and Mrs. Mancini has already surpassed the store's average monthly sales in a single day.
00:23:48But she's still a great deal short of the manager's impossible target.
00:23:56She 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.
00:24:12And I should do some personal shopping, shouldn't I?
00:24:14Sir, 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.
00:24:29Sir, 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?
00:24:47Right this way, sir.
00:24:54I just need to take your measurements.
00:24:57Whoa, what are you doing?
00:25:00You measure what?
00:25:00I just needed you to take the jacket off.
00:25:05Well, we don't have much time.
00:25:11Just trust me.
00:25:13I know.
00:25:19Now, measure me like this.
00:25:22Ava, time is almost up.
00:25:52I did it.
00:26:11I saved my job.
00:26:12And I made a new sales record.
00:26:16There's no reason to thank me.
00:26:18I'm here to help.
00:26:19Whenever you need help.
00:26:20I hate to do this, but Ava Jackson.
00:26:26You're fired.
00:26:29What?
00:26:31No.
00:26:32I met your target and then some.
00:26:34Oh.
00:26:35That last sale?
00:26:37The one that put you over the top?
00:26:38That was actually mine.
00:26:40You're trying to steal my commission.
00:26:42Well, that won't work because everyone in this store saw me make that sale.
00:26:46I get it.
00:26:52You threaten them into silence.
00:26:54Well, that won't work either because the security cameras caught everything.
00:26:58Oh, security cameras.
00:27:09What horrible timing.
00:27:11Unfortunately, the security cameras are down for maintenance today.
00:27:14But fortunately, everyone here saw you destroy thousands of dollars worth of merchandise.
00:27:21You 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.
00:27:38I'm sorry, sir, but we're closed for the day.
00:27:41I 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 Luca Mancini?
00:27:50Are you Luca Mancini?
00:28:17Are you Luca Mancini?
00:28:47Who really damaged the merchandise in this store?
00:28:49The Add-Ins that you destroyed are worth over several millions of dollars at five years in prison.
00:28:58Luca, what happened?
00:28:59There's nothing more talking about.
00:29:00We need to go.
00:29:01And by the way, you're fired.
00:29:03Let's go.
00:29:04I'm on the kitchen.
00:29:10How 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.
00:29:22It's all taken care of, thanks to Luca.
00:29:24This door looked like a tornado hit it.
00:29:26Manu will be serving time in a jail cell.
00:29:29Justice is served.
00:29:31That's my boy.
00:29:32Sweetheart, I would like you to concentrate full-time on your pregnancy right now.
00:29:40All of this work drama can wait until after my grandchild is born safely.
00:29:46Yes, ma'am.
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.
00:29:56Luca, I'd like you to take her to the doctor tomorrow for an exam.
00:30:01No, that's really not necessary.
00:30:03I have those meetings in Europe, so possibly I could have some more substituting.
00:30:11Yeah, and I'm perfectly capable of going by myself.
00:30:14I 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.
00:30:44Ava Jackson, we're ready for you now.
00:30:47Dad should come too.
00:30:48We encourage partner participation.
00:30:51Oh, no, he's not.
00:30:53Would you prefer that I explain that I'm your dead husband's brother?
00:31:00That might be a bit awkward.
00:31:02Mr. and Mrs. Jackson, please come in when you're ready.
00:31:04Coming.
00:31:12If you could lift your top up slightly and lower your skirt band just a bit, we'll get started.
00:31:17First prenatal checkup together, I'm guessing.
00:31:32The baby looks perfectly healthy.
00:31:36Current length is about three inches with a strong heart rate.
00:31:41Is the baby moving?
00:31:42Yes, indeed.
00:31:43Look there.
00:31:46The little one's making faces.
00:31:49Quite the expressive child already.
00:31:56Dad, don't you want to come take a look?
00:32:00Oh.
00:32:05The baby's at 18 weeks, now developing beautifully.
00:32:09For home care, I recommend plenty of rest, nutrient-rich foods, and tactile bonding when possible.
00:32:20Tactile bonding?
00:32:21Yes.
00:32:22It's quite beneficial for fetal development.
00:32:25Come over here and place your hands on her belly.
00:32:28Doctor, is that really appropriate?
00:32:31What's inappropriate about it?
00:32:33This is what husbands do.
00:32:35I'm sorry to that.
00:32:53Did I hurt you?
00:32:54No, no.
00:32:55It just feels strange.
00:32:58Like this.
00:32:59Top to bottom.
00:33:01Left to right.
00:33:02Gentle strokes.
00:33:07Got it?
00:33:09Got it.
00:33:11Do this once daily.
00:33:12Five to ten minutes each.
00:33:16You can sit up now.
00:33:17So, everything good with the baby?
00:33:27Any special instructions I should know about?
00:33:30Nothing.
00:33:31Nothing, no.
00:33:32The doctor did say that the baby is developing beautifully, and there's nothing to worry about.
00:33:39Good news, then.
00:33:40Before I forget, the Rossi family's daughter is having her birthday celebration next weekend, and we should all attend.
00:33:51The Rossi family?
00:33:52Technically, they're our business rivals, but social niceties must be maintained.
00:33:59And she has had an embarrassing crush on Luca since they were little children.
00:34:05Mom, please.
00:34:06Miss Sofia Rossi has arrived unannounced.
00:34:10She shows up without calling?
00:34:13How gauche.
00:34:14Should we send Ava upstairs?
00:34:16No, no, it's fine.
00:34:17I'm here.
00:34:18We can just...
00:34:19Good evening, Mrs. Mancini.
00:34:24Luca, I came to personally deliver my birthday invitation.
00:34:27Okay.
00:34:31Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:34Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:35Hey, hey, hey.
00:34:36Rossi's family lack of manners ever disappoints me.
00:34:40Luca Mancini, how dare you speak to me like that?
00:34:43Miss Rossi, I've heard so much about your family.
00:34:47I'm Ava, Marco's wife.
00:34:51Marco was Luca's brother.
00:34:56Oh, okay.
00:34:58I thought you were carrying Luca's baby.
00:35:00That's good, because we're nice.
00:35:03I came all this way to bring you that, and this is how you welcome me?
00:35:07Don't disappoint me at the party, darling.
00:35:09Wear something sharp.
00:35:12Yes.
00:35:13See if there's any connection between that pregnant woman and Luca.
00:35:25I'm not buying this whole sister-in-law act for one second.
00:35:29You got it.
00:35:34You look so handsome.
00:35:35Well, well, well.
00:35:41It looks like my stubborn son has good taste after all.
00:35:45Luca did an excellent job selecting this gown.
00:35:48It is perfect for you.
00:35:49Luca picked this?
00:35:53I've never been anywhere this fancy before.
00:35:57I might embarrass you guys.
00:35:59Oh, don't even worry about it.
00:36:03You are my pride and joy.
00:36:05Besides, Luca will be with us the whole time,
00:36:08and he'll make sure everything runs smoothly.
00:36:13Luca?
00:36:14What about her shoes?
00:36:16How could you forget something so basic?
00:36:17What about her shoes?
00:36:51No problem.
00:36:53Just don't want you to fall.
00:37:09Who's that with Mr. Mancini?
00:37:11She's clearly pregnant.
00:37:13Do you think that's Mr. Mancini's baby?
00:37:15I had no idea he was even married.
00:37:16Must be his mistress.
00:37:18Oh, sure.
00:37:19Everyone, I would like to introduce Ava Mancini,
00:37:23my eldest son Marco's wife.
00:37:26Marco's wife?
00:37:27She's stunning.
00:37:31This is my birthday party!
00:37:33I'm supposed to be the center of attention,
00:37:35not some pregnant woman!
00:37:39Well, maybe we shouldn't cause a scene here.
00:37:41It's mine.
00:37:43She's always like this.
00:37:46We didn't mean to steal your spotlight.
00:37:49An apology simply isn't enough.
00:37:51Since you're Luca's sister-in-law,
00:37:54why don't you entertain us all with a performance of some kind?
00:37:58Look, she used to deliver food for a living.
00:38:00Waitress, retail clerk, cleaning lady?
00:38:04What could someone with her background possibly perform for this crowd?
00:38:18Ava, how does this piece go again?
00:38:21I'm completely lost here.
00:38:22I've forgotten everything that you've told me.
00:38:25There's no way she could actually play.
00:38:27She's just a nobody from nowhere.
00:38:29He has to be setting her up.
00:38:31Even Miss Mancini is smiling,
00:38:33just waiting for her to crash and burn.
00:38:35I was just playing for the baby.
00:38:57I think he recognized the music you were playing for us earlier.
00:39:02Well, maybe you should teach me sometime.
00:39:05Properly.
00:39:06I'd like to play for you both.
00:39:11Because Mom did tell me to look after you,
00:39:13so it's the least that I can do.
00:39:18Okay.
00:39:28One, two, and there.
00:39:35One, two, and there.
00:39:47One, two, and there.
00:39:49They're definitely more than in-laws.
00:40:06Look at the way they play together.
00:40:09If I can't have him, I'll destroy them both.
00:40:12Yeah, I always enjoy these type of events.
00:40:20Me too.
00:40:21That's how it's screwed up.
00:40:22From Miss Rossi.
00:40:24Your accompanist.
00:40:25Cheers.
00:40:30Sir, that drink is almost certainly drugged.
00:40:33Obviously.
00:40:33Is the Rossi family making a move against us?
00:40:36These tensions have been simmering for years.
00:40:39Should we respond preemptively?
00:40:42Do nothing.
00:40:46You just need to focus on protecting Ava.
00:40:49We'll see what they have planned.
00:40:57Darling, you look tired.
00:41:00I don't think all this excitement is good for your condition.
00:41:03Why don't you try to find Luca and let's get you home.
00:41:07Okay.
00:41:12Sophia's bedroom.
00:41:31Why is Luca's phone in there?
00:41:35And why am I jealous?
00:41:36I've wanted Luca for years.
00:41:55And then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks?
00:41:57You won't look so innocent when everyone sees you in bed next to your dead husband's mom.
00:42:07Miss, is it exactly how you wanted it?
00:42:09Not at all.
00:42:10This isn't convincing.
00:42:12Unbutton their clothes.
00:42:12Okay.
00:42:13Sal, position them closer together.
00:42:22Make it look more intimate.
00:42:23Perfect.
00:42:30Let's go.
00:42:30Our masterpiece is complete.
00:42:32Now we just have to bring in an audience.
00:42:34I expected much more than this is a juvenile prank from my business partner.
00:42:48Ava, wake up.
00:43:02Ava.
00:43:04Ava.
00:43:04Ava.
00:43:13Luca.
00:43:16Oh, my God.
00:43:18What happened to us?
00:43:25This is bad.
00:43:34Oh.
00:43:36If anyone sees us like this, they'll immediately assume the worst.
00:43:43Luca, wake up.
00:43:45Okay.
00:43:49Okay.
00:43:52Oh!
00:43:55Jesus.
00:43:57People are coming.
00:43:58You're acting like we had some tort affair.
00:44:00We 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.
00:44:06If anyone sees us like this, they'll...
00:44:08The Mancini family name won't be destroyed.
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.
00:44:18Hey, you haven't answered me.
00:44:20Thank you all so much for coming today to celebrate me, but I do have some rather important information
00:44:31to 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.
00:44:52Can you let go?
00:44:56They're coming.
00:44:57Come on.
00:45:01Here, I got this one.
00:45:02Watch out.
00:45:03Wait, stop!
00:45:04Watch!
00:45:04They're right there!
00:45:05If we walk through that door, we'll walk right into their trap.
00:45:08Okay, then what's your brilliant idea, Miss Ma'am?
00:45:10Um...
00:45:11We...
00:45:12Let's go through the window.
00:45:13We can climb down.
00:45:14Whoa, whoa, whoa, no.
00:45:15I...
00:45:16No, no, I'm...
00:45:17I'm afraid of heights.
00:45:18You're what?
00:45:21I'm sorry.
00:45:22I just didn't realize the great Luca Mancini had fears like the rest of us.
00:45:26Yeah.
00:45:27You know, that's one of my fears, and I don't advertise it, so...
00:45:30Deal with it.
00:45:31What?
00:45:32What the hell, Steve?
00:45:34Miss Lucy, where are these cheaters you promised to expose?
00:45:37Shh!
00:45:38Keep it down, you idiot.
00:45:39You don't want to wake them.
00:45:40I mean, we don't want to alert them to give them a chance to escape.
00:45:45They're coming.
00:45:46Let's go.
00:45:48Okay.
00:45:49Hurry, hurry.
00:45:54No, no, no!
00:45:55Don't run!
00:45:56We have to catch them in the act first!
00:45:57Are you insane?
00:45:58Your house is on fire!
00:45:59Who cares about the gossip?
00:46:00Let's get out of here.
00:46:01No, no, no!
00:46:02No!
00:46:03I'll help everyone leave afterwards, but first let's get a look at them!
00:46:06Come on!
00:46:07What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:46:08I am so sorry.
00:46:09It was an accident.
00:46:10Please.
00:46:11You okay?
00:46:12Yeah.
00:46:13You okay?
00:46:14Yeah.
00:46:15The staff prepared everything for you, and there's hot water in there.
00:46:16There's hot water in there.
00:46:17There's hot water in there.
00:46:18And what about you?
00:46:19And what about you?
00:46:20I'll just be out here.
00:46:21Taking guard for you.
00:46:22I'll just be out here.
00:46:23Taking guard for you.
00:46:24I'll just be out here.
00:46:25Taking guard for you.
00:46:26Now go on.
00:46:27It's warm.
00:46:28Thanks.
00:46:29Thanks.
00:46:30Thanks.
00:46:32I'll just be out here.
00:46:33I'll just be out here.
00:46:34I'll just be out here.
00:46:35Taking guard for you.
00:46:36Now go on.
00:46:37It's warm.
00:46:38Thanks.
00:46:40Thanks.
00:46:48I'm.
00:46:49You're all good.
00:46:50can't be out here.
00:46:51I'll just be out here.
00:46:52I'll just be out here.
00:46:54And what about you?
00:46:55We'll just be out here.
00:46:57Taking guard for you.
00:46:59Now go on.
00:47:00It's warm.
00:47:01Thanks.
00:47:02You're welcome.
00:47:04I'm sorry.
00:47:05It's warm.
00:47:06That's what you do.
00:47:06I'm sorry.
00:47:07I'm sorry.
00:47:08I'm sorry.
00:47:09What is it?
00:47:30Miss Rossi is demanding to see you, sir.
00:47:32She's quite insistent.
00:47:34Okay, let her run.
00:47:39You set off the fire alarms and completely scared away my guests.
00:47:43You ruined my birthday celebration.
00:47:55Hey, you will take full responsibility for what you did.
00:47:59The drugging, the setup, all of it.
00:48:01And if you ever threaten Ava again, directly or indirectly,
00:48:06I will end the Rossi family.
00:48:08I will die from this city permanently.
00:48:10You're a monster.
00:48:12That's her in there, isn't it?
00:48:13Ava, your dead brother's wife?
00:48:16How dare you?
00:48:18Ew, get your hands off of me!
00:48:20Do you know who I am?
00:48:21Ava, your dead brother's wife?
00:48:27I love her.
00:48:27I love her.
00:48:29I love her.
00:48:30I love her.
00:48:31I love her.
00:48:33I love her.
00:48:35Ava.
00:48:36Ava!
00:48:36Ava!
00:48:37Ava!
00:48:37Ava!
00:48:38Ava!
00:48:38Ava!
00:48:39Luca, it's me, wake up.
00:48:51Ava, you're so close.
00:48:53Is this a dream?
00:49:00Luca, I'm your brother's wife.
00:49:03So this isn't a dream.
00:49:05I, um, Ava, I've had feelings for you for so long.
00:49:12And I've tried to keep them a secret, but I, I, I can't keep them any longer.
00:49:17And now you know my two secrets and by family code, I have to silence the person who discovers my weaknesses.
00:49:28Luca, let me go.
00:49:29No, no, no, but I can't silence you because, Ava, I have fallen in love with you.
00:49:35Oh, God, that's not funny.
00:49:38Look, I've never been more serious.
00:49:42Look, Ava, every time I come around you, I, I feel myself slipping.
00:49:49And my feelings have crossed that line months ago.
00:49:51Stop, stop, just stop.
00:49:57I'll forget this ever happened.
00:49:58No, Ava.
00:50:00I want to take care of you.
00:50:03And the baby.
00:50:04For the rest of my life.
00:50:14Luca, I...
00:50:15I know that you try,
00:50:17But you can't let me in.
00:50:21Luca, what's going on?
00:50:22Why isn't Ava home?
00:50:26What's going on here?
00:50:27Mom, I think...
00:50:28Nothing.
00:50:30My clothes were dirty,
00:50:32so Luca prepared for me a shower and clean clothes.
00:50:35Oh, thank goodness.
00:50:38The last thing we need is for you to catch pneumonia.
00:50:40Yeah, I know.
00:50:42Ava, I think that we should probably...
00:50:44Luca.
00:50:45It's almost Marco's birthday.
00:50:50Let's visit his grave.
00:50:53He's your brother and my husband.
00:50:56And we don't want to betray his memory.
00:51:00Oh, you poor thing.
00:51:01You must be utterly exhausted.
00:51:03Let's get you home.
00:51:05These Rossis are nothing but trouble.
00:51:07We need to accelerate our plans against them.
00:51:09Changing hearts.
00:51:14Changing hearts.
00:51:18Changing hearts.
00:51:20Marco.
00:51:23I miss you.
00:51:28I feel so lost without you.
00:51:30Would you hate me
00:51:35if you knew I had feelings for your brother?
00:51:43Ava, are you in there?
00:51:52Ava, are you there?
00:51:53I meant everything that I said today.
00:51:59And I want to help you get through this,
00:52:00and I want to protect you.
00:52:03Marco and Mom,
00:52:04they would both understand.
00:52:08Ava, I love you.
00:52:09Ava, I love you.
00:52:11I understand how difficult this is.
00:52:28Your loyalty for Marco,
00:52:30and your concern for my mother,
00:52:32that is the compassion that...
00:52:34that's the reason I fell in love with you.
00:52:37There's $30 million on this credit card,
00:52:42and the pin number is your birthday.
00:52:44I've been through epsom flows,
00:52:47I've asked goodbye, felt like the end.
00:52:50Can't deny, I can't pretend.
00:52:53This fire burns again.
00:52:57Illuminating rain.
00:53:00I feel alive.
00:53:02One more time, our worlds collide.
00:53:05Watch them circling in the sky.
00:53:08We are magnetic sides.
00:53:12I'm falling for you.
00:53:13Wait for me.
00:53:14No one loves me like you do.
00:53:17Thought that you and I were through.
00:53:26The baby's development is right on track.
00:53:30Perfect, actually.
00:53:31Has your husband been doing those tactile bonding exercises I showed you?
00:53:37Doctor.
00:53:38Uh, actually, he's not exactly my...
00:53:41Oh, no need to be embarrassed.
00:53:43The way that man looks at you is something special.
00:53:46Now, face each other.
00:53:53Helena, take her hands.
00:53:56Deep inhale.
00:53:58And lean into each other,
00:54:00using each other's weight to support you.
00:54:04Come up.
00:54:05Come up.
00:54:10On the exhale, do a gentle squat.
00:54:13And then share and embrace.
00:54:22You're at my new home.
00:54:29Who exactly are you welcoming home, dear daughter-in-law?
00:54:33I was just talking nonsense.
00:54:36Miss.
00:54:37Miss.
00:54:46I'll get it.
00:54:52Miss, flowers from Mr. Mancini.
00:54:57Miss.
00:55:24Miss.
00:55:25Miss.
00:55:25I wonder if he's doing well out there.
00:55:45Hello?
00:55:46Ava?
00:55:47I'm outside at the gate.
00:55:49Security won't let me in.
00:55:55Mom, what are you doing here?
00:55:57I've missed you terribly, sweetheart.
00:55:59I just wanted to check on you and the baby.
00:56:06Look, fresh oranges.
00:56:09Just pick today.
00:56:10You need the vitamin C for the baby's development.
00:56:13I'm on a very carefully monitored diet.
00:56:16You wasted a trip.
00:56:21Look, I know that you haven't forgiven me.
00:56:24But you have to understand.
00:56:26Derek and Sarah, I mean, they would have thrown me out on the street if I didn't go along with them.
00:56:33I mean, what choice did I have?
00:56:35That's not rehash the past.
00:56:38Of course.
00:56:39I picked these up for my grandchild.
00:56:43Aren't they precious?
00:56:45That baby that you're carrying is my family, too.
00:56:50I love them so much already.
00:56:53Look, I stood up for you to Derek.
00:56:56And he threw me out.
00:56:58I had absolutely nothing left.
00:57:00This card contains all the money I've saved.
00:57:13It's yours.
00:57:14But you have to promise me that you'll use it for yourself.
00:57:17Not a penny goes to Derek.
00:57:19Okay.
00:57:20I swear it.
00:57:21Not a cent to him.
00:57:23How much money are we talking about?
00:57:24Ten thousand dollars.
00:57:26Ten thousand?
00:57:29That's it.
00:57:30You're carrying the Mancini heir and all they've given you is ten thousand dollars.
00:57:36That is my personal savings.
00:57:38I haven't asked the Mancinis for a cent.
00:57:40Okay, this is completely unacceptable.
00:57:45Everyone in this city knows that the Mancinis are loaded beyond belief.
00:57:50Come on.
00:57:51You need to milk this situation for all it's worth.
00:57:59Honey, I'm...
00:58:03I'm only thinking about your future and your security.
00:58:07I mean, what happens if they throw you out once the baby arrives?
00:58:11I didn't marry into the Mancini family for their fortune.
00:58:15And you mention their money one more time, you'll never see me again.
00:58:20Understood?
00:58:21I understand, sweetheart.
00:58:23Mom won't say another word about it.
00:58:31Ten thousand dollars?
00:58:32That's it?
00:58:33That's pocket change for them!
00:58:35She must be holding out on this.
00:58:39That ungrateful little brat!
00:58:41I tried everything!
00:58:43I couldn't squeeze another penny out of her.
00:58:45She's swimming in Mancinis money and we're here struggling.
00:58:49After what they did to my leg, I should be getting millions!
00:58:52Yes!
00:58:53A few million?
00:58:54It's just the beginning.
00:58:56We've been thinking too small.
00:58:58I have good reason to believe that we have a common enemy.
00:59:12I think we should work together.
00:59:14So we're back on a list.
00:59:15I can't get any new things.
00:59:16I can't get anything out of the box.
00:59:17We can't get anything out of this box.
00:59:18I can't get anything out of the box.
00:59:19Alright, I can't get any new theories, but I'll give you a second.
00:59:20That is, wait.
00:59:21I'm gonna do that to my first-юсь.
00:59:22I don't wanna do this.
00:59:23I'm gonna do crazy.

01:09:30What is taking so long? Is something wrong?
01:09:33She's gone into labor early. Have you two been intimate recently?
01:09:37We didn't exactly. I mean, not completely.
01:09:42I warned you to be careful with her.
01:09:45What 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, yes. We'll do anything. Money is no object. Just help her.
01:09:55Some intimate touches can help her relax and feel better.
01:10:05Right here. Right here.
01:10:08Yes.
01:10:12Mom, I can't. I can't. Just whip it out.

01:10:51They've never been together before.
01:10:55Never been together?
01:10:57Then how could she be?
01:10:59The child is my late son's.
01:11:02Luca's brother.
01:11:06You okay?

01:11:26Three, two, three, push.
01:11:30That's your baby.
01:11:41Hey.
01:11:42Hey.
01:11:43Hi.
01:11:44How you feeling?
01:11:45Good.
01:11:46You want something to eat?
01:11:47I thought this hospital was the best that money can buy.
01:11:56I guess I was misinformed.
01:11:59Look, they're doing the best they can.
01:12:02Let's not terrorize the staff.
01:12:06Look, I just don't want to see you in any more pain.
01:12:11You would tear me apart.
01:12:17Luca, remember to control yourself, son.
01:12:26Let her recover first.
01:12:38And have you decided what to name this little prince?
01:12:42Marco.
01:12:45Marco.
01:12:46I want to name him Marco.
01:12:48Look, little one.
01:12:49It's your daddy.
01:12:50Your real daddy.
01:12:51Look, little one.
01:12:52It's your daddy.
01:12:53Your real daddy.
01:12:54It's remarkable how much he looks like.
01:12:57I'll never let you go.
01:12:58I'll never let you go.
01:12:59It's your daddy.
01:13:00It's your real daddy.
01:13:03It's remarkable how much he looks like.
01:13:07Look, little one, it's your daddy, your real daddy.
01:13:22It's remarkable how much he looks like.
01:13:24Marco, I thought you had all the answers, and that you'd handle everything.
01:13:32And I promise to protect mom, the business, and your family, our family.
01:13:46You know, Marco used to say that if you wanted to think about somebody, you would watch the dandelion,
01:13:53and if the seeds blew out easily, then they were thinking of you, too.
01:13:57I hear you on the radio, on the radio.
01:14:04Miss, Mrs. Mancini's wedding gifts, the finest villas, the Mancini family jewelry, and finally,
01:14:3130% ownership of Mancini group holdings effective immediately.
01:14:38This ring has been in the Mancini family for seven generations.
01:14:48Passed from mother to daughter-in-law.
01:14:52It feels like when the last one's on earth.
01:14:56Thank you, Luna.
01:15:03A perfect fit.
01:15:04Now, 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.
