Private Affair Falling For A Secret Billionaire (2025) - FULL HD [Eng Sub]
Transcript
00:00What's your name?
00:01Callahan.
00:02Private.
00:03Do you know who I am?
00:04I know exactly who you are.
00:06You're really bad at making friends.
00:08I'm not here to make friends.
00:10Surprise!
00:11You weren't supposed to be here till tomorrow.
00:13Maybe you've forgotten what's at stake.
00:15This assignment is about redemption.
00:16Rebellion.
00:17Are you afraid of me?
00:18No.
00:19I think you're afraid of me.
00:20You can't be here.
00:21I know.
00:22Just don't talk.
00:23What are you running from?
00:25Everything.
00:26You're crawling around with a soldier.
00:27You barely know.
00:28I'm not.
00:29I can't do this again.
00:30I know.
00:31You made me fall for you walking around pretending
00:33to be someone else that you weren't.
00:34You want to hate me?
00:35Fine.
00:36But don't act like I'm the only one hiding behind the uniform.
00:38You humiliate me in front of half the base,
00:40and now you're sneaking around with him again.
00:41You will accept Jeremy's proposal.
00:43You will marry him for the next deployment.
00:45Do you understand me?
00:47Yes, sir.
00:48Do you take Captain Rose to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:54Miss Widmore?
00:55I...
00:58I'll be free.
00:59That's enough!
01:00You can't keep coming and going like this.
01:02It's killing me.
01:03Then let me stay.
01:05You sure?
01:06I'm sure.
01:07It's so hard, ain't no fear, yeah.
01:08You ain't giving this to all, you get it clear.
01:09You ain't giving me this to all.
01:10You ain't giving me this to all.
01:12Woah, woah, woah, woah, oh
01:14Man, all I'm missing, I'mma get it
01:15You know I be on the wall, woah, woah, woah
01:18Yeah, yeah
01:21You know I be on the wall, woah, woah, woah, woah
01:25Man, all I'm missing, I'mma get it
01:26You know I be on the wall, yeah
01:28That's so hard, ain't no fair, yeah
01:30You ain't giving this to all you getting clear
01:33Don't do no reason to do it
01:35Don't do no reason to do it
01:39You missed the ball.
01:54I caught what I wanted.
02:02This isn't the capital.
02:03There's no handlers, there's no headlines.
02:05Just duty and sweat.
02:08Try not to make a mess up.
02:10Good to see you too, Dad.
02:12You're here because the optics are bad.
02:14You went off script.
02:16Again.
02:17I gave an honest answer to a dishonest question.
02:20I didn't like the building on fire.
02:22You embarrassed Rhodes.
02:23You embarrassed me.
02:25Maybe if you stopped treating me like a press release and started treating me like a person,
02:28I wouldn't keep embarrassing you.
02:31Rhodes will be here soon.
02:32You'll accompany him to drills.
02:34Keep appearances.
02:36I didn't ask to be here.
02:38And I sure as hell didn't ask for Rhodes.
02:41You're not here to ask.
02:43You're here to repair what your name used to mean.
02:44That'll do it.
02:56Of course.
03:00My buddy Jackson from back home taught me everything I know about engines.
03:03He knows his stuff, that's for sure.
03:04Good work, buddy.
03:06Private, that wasn't a suggestion.
03:21I didn't realize you outranked me, ma'am.
03:23I'm a civilian liaison to the operations commander.
03:26You're expected to acknowledge protocol.
03:28I thought you were just passing through.
03:29I'm stationed here, behind comms.
03:33Lucky us.
03:35What's your name?
03:37Callahan.
03:40Private.
03:41Are you always this friendly?
03:42Only to people who expect it.
03:48Try not to get your shoes dirty.
03:54Still attracting the wrong kind of attention, I assume.
03:57Stay away from that one if I were you.
04:00Have you always been this territorial, Harper?
04:02Only when you show up when invited.
04:04I thought we outgrew this in Port Lexington.
04:07You outgrew the army.
04:09I didn't.
04:10Okay.
04:19Supply tents, Alpha through Indigo.
04:21You'll supervise the loading for the med runs.
04:23Your detail's already been pulled.
04:25Uh, it says here, Private Callahan.
04:29Do you have a problem with that?
04:33I'm just surprised if that's someone with more experience if I want to.
04:36He volunteered.
04:37I guess we're working together.
04:50I guess so.
04:51You volunteered?
04:52Somebody's got to move the boxes.
04:55So you're planning on taking orders, or are you going to play independent contractor again?
04:58That depends.
05:00You plan on giving orders, or just playing officer.
05:02Start with the bandages, and then the field kits.
05:09Don't drop anything.
05:22Unless you want to get struck, might be time to stop playing supervisor.
05:25You really volunteered for this detail?
05:35It was either this, or sanitation.
05:38You'd probably be less irritating there.
05:40You think I'm irritating?
05:43You walk around like you don't answer to anyone.
05:47I walk around not pretending, either.
05:49Do you know who I am?
05:51I know exactly who you are.
05:53It doesn't mean I care.
05:55You're really bad at making friends.
05:57I'm not here to make friends.
05:59Cause I don't know what you're looking for.
06:10Wow.
06:12Cozy.
06:13Base brief has been pushed until after the thunderstorm.
06:16So, as you were.
06:19Perfect timing.
06:20As always.
06:21Were you not going to tell her that we were doing inventory?
06:25Were you going to tell her that we weren't?
06:29Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
06:31Made on a mission, I'm a kidding, you know I'd be on a run.
06:34Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
06:37You weren't supposed to be here till tomorrow.
06:39I figured I'd surprise you.
06:41Thought you might need the motivation.
06:44I was in the middle of rounds.
06:46No, you're not.
06:47Come on, let's do a walkthrough together.
06:49You can show me what you've been up to.
06:51I have three more units to check and two more.
06:53Emma, I came all the way down here early.
06:56The least you can do is spend the next ten minutes speaking like you're still happy.
07:03This space is doing something to you.
07:05You seem tense.
07:07Maybe I'm just tired.
07:08Maybe you've forgotten what's at stake.
07:10This assignment is about redemption, not rebellion.
07:13I have work to do.
07:14You work for me, I know.
07:16Or did that change while I was in the air?
07:26Jack, finally.
07:29Hi, Mom.
07:29You look thin.
07:31Hard to stay full on rations and coffee.
07:34Tell me again while you're still out here pretending to be one of them.
07:38I'm not pretending.
07:39You're wasting time, Jack.
07:42Your father's getting worse.
07:43And you should be here learning how to take over Callahan Defense.
07:48Our stock is dropping.
07:50We're losing hundreds of millions in value every week.
07:54When your father's gone, you're it.
07:59I didn't know you worked night shifts.
08:04You okay?
08:05I'm fine.
08:12You don't look fine.
08:15Must be the lighting.
08:17You don't talk much.
08:19You ever think that's why everyone wonders what your story is?
08:22I'm not here to be a story.
08:24What are you here for?
08:25Maybe I wanted to remember what it felt like to earn something.
08:30Or I got tired of being told of who I'm supposed to be.
08:33Sounds like someone with a past.
08:35We all got one here.
08:37Some of us are better at hiding it.
08:38Or too afraid to share it.
08:40Are you afraid of me?
08:41No.
08:44I think you're afraid of me.
08:45You can't be here.
09:03I know.
09:04You can't sleep?
09:10Not with everything in my head.
09:14You can be used to it.
09:15I don't want to get you sore.
09:17I don't know who you are.
09:19I don't care right now.
09:20Jack.
09:21Just don't talk.
09:24I can't do this anymore.
09:46I know.
09:46What the hell are we doing?
09:54Something we both knew we couldn't stop.
09:56I don't get it.
09:57I don't get to make mistakes.
10:02Not here.
10:03Not with you.
10:04So that's what this was.
10:06A mistake.
10:07I don't need saving Emma.
10:09But I didn't think I'd be somebody that you would regret.
10:14That's...
10:14That's not what I was actually trying to get.
10:16You don't.
10:17I have to explain.
10:24I'll let myself out.
10:25You'll forget about this faster than I will.
10:38You've been quiet lately.
10:40Distant.
10:41Well, it's a forward operating base, Jimmy.
10:42Not exactly the Four Seasons.
10:44Look, I'm trying.
10:45I know I came in hot the other day.
10:48This place, it's bringing out your worst instincts.
10:50My worst instincts?
10:52You get reckless when you feel trapped.
10:54And you're not trapped.
10:55You just need to stay focused.
10:56You think I'm in a problem here?
10:58You need to remember what we came here to fix
10:59and not create more damage.
11:07Em?
11:09Stay away from him.
11:10I'm serious.
11:11You don't own me, Jeremy.
11:13Should I have to?
11:15Breakfast was great.
11:17As always.
11:17All right.
11:18All right.
11:18All right.
11:18All right.
11:19All right.
11:25Are you here to inspect my stacking technique?
11:32I needed a minute.
11:34Are you OK?
11:35Jeremy cornered me at breakfast.
11:38Says that I'm distracted, that you're the distraction.
11:42Is that true?
11:43Depends.
11:44Depends on what?
11:46If you're worth it.
11:47You don't have to pretend I didn't leave.
11:49And you don't have to pretend I didn't hurt.
11:51I can handle orders, even silence.
11:54But when you look at me like it didn't mean anything,
11:56now that's the part that screws with me.
11:58Anyone can walk in.
11:59Then don't say anything.
12:00You don't mean.
12:02I can't stop thinking about it.
12:05About you.
12:06Then say it when it matters.
12:07Not just when it's safe.
12:21Callahan.
12:22Jack.
12:23Unit 4.
12:25Who the hell are you?
12:28Why are you lying?
12:31What are you up to?
12:33Uh, just getting ahead of these logistics errors.
12:36Last week's were a mess.
12:37Well, let me know if you need help
12:39looking through some of the grunts.
12:41I know some of them come with complications.
12:44I can handle complications.
12:45I know.
12:46That's what worries me.
12:49You requested me?
12:50Just wanted to bring something to your attention.
12:53Callahan.
12:54Supplies unit.
12:55New detail.
12:56He's on Emma's logistics team?
12:58It was.
12:59He was reassigned twice in the last week
13:01and he always ends up back in her proximity.
13:04Think he's targeting her?
13:05I think she's not thinking clearly
13:06and he's taking advantage.
13:08There's something off about him.
13:10His transfer is clean, but too clean.
13:12I've been saying this.
13:14No one's listened.
13:15Let me help you take back what's yours.
13:21Didn't expect to see you today.
13:24Where were you stationed before this?
13:26Why?
13:26No reason.
13:28You don't talk much.
13:29Makes a girl wonder.
13:30Infantry training.
13:31Stateside.
13:32Low profile.
13:33That's all?
13:34That's all that matters.
13:37Right.
13:38Is there something you're not saying?
13:40No.
13:41Just trying to figure out who's on my team
13:43and who's pretending to be.
13:44Are you looking for a reason not to trust me?
13:46Maybe I'm looking for a reason to trust you.
13:49Okay, we need to have an actual conversation.
14:04Oh, after you've run my name
14:06through every restricted log on base.
14:09Who told you?
14:10It doesn't matter.
14:11It's the truth, isn't it?
14:13I trusted you, Emma.
14:14And I'm supposed to trust someone
14:15who doesn't even have a real service history?
14:16I didn't enlist to be tracked.
14:18I enlisted to disappear.
14:20And I did.
14:21Until you.
14:22What are you running from?
14:23Everything.
14:25But why can't you just tell me the truth?
14:27Because I want one thing that's real in my life
14:30before it gets ripped apart.
14:32You're Private Jack Callahan
14:33of Callahan Defense Systems.
14:35This field base alone
14:36is probably a half a billion dollar contract for you.
14:38Are you here for some sort of
14:39secret shopper bullshit?
14:40I'm here because I needed to understand
14:42the people that my family's weapons are killing.
14:44You wanted the truth?
14:46There it is.
14:47Look, I didn't want to bring you to this.
14:50I tried to keep you out of it.
14:51Then why did you kiss me?
14:53Why didn't you just leave?
14:54Because I couldn't.
14:55You think that makes it better?
14:56No, but it makes it honest.
14:58You made me fall for you,
14:59walking around,
15:00pretending to be someone else that you weren't.
15:01I wasn't pretending.
15:03I was trying to figure out who I really am.
15:06And then you happened.
15:07You want to hate me?
15:12Fine.
15:13But don't act like I'm the only one
15:14hiding behind a uniform.
15:16I'm not hiding.
15:18No?
15:18Then why are you still pretending
15:20you're okay with him?
15:21This isn't about Jeremy.
15:24Isn't it?
15:24Stay away from me.
15:38You sure about this?
15:39The transfer's going to flag a man.
15:41I want to know why.
15:41Let them ask.
15:43I'll be gone before they even decide.
15:45Don't!
15:46You shouldn't be here.
15:52Then you shouldn't be leaving.
15:53What, you're just going to disappear?
15:54What else do you expect?
15:56Every day someone else comes sniffing around.
15:59Jeremy, Harper, your father, you.
16:03I wasn't trying to destroy you.
16:04I was trying to understand.
16:07Oh, and understanding comes with a background check?
16:09And trust doesn't come with silence.
16:12If you turn that in,
16:14you're not just walking away from the base.
16:16You're walking away from me.
16:17Maybe that's the only way to protect you.
16:19You don't get to decide that.
16:20Not when I'm standing right here.
16:34You've been quiet.
16:36I didn't know there's much left to say.
16:37You always say that,
16:39and then you say something
16:40that sticks in my head all night.
16:42My dad is sick.
16:44Stage four.
16:45Nobody's saying it out loud,
16:47but we all know it's coming.
16:48They want me to take over the company.
16:50Not just the public side.
16:53Weapons, tech, defense contracts, all of it.
16:56They're not just the type of company
16:58that asks for permission.
17:00They just build the tools
17:01and let the war sort themselves out.
17:03And you're next in line?
17:04Like a coronation.
17:05Except for the part where they ask,
17:09do you want the crown?
17:13I joined up because I couldn't sleep at night
17:16thinking about the people that we were building for.
17:18What it felt like to be the person pulling the trigger
17:20or carrying the gear
17:22or not coming home.
17:24So you think this will fix it?
17:26No.
17:27But now I understand it.
17:29I never meant to drag you into this.
17:31I never expected you.
17:34I didn't expect any of this either.
17:36You've been visible lately.
17:42I've been performing my assigned duties.
17:44I'm not talking about duties.
17:47I'm talking about whispers.
17:49The kind that don't stay within the wire.
17:50The people you surround yourself with
17:52are a direct reflection on this face
17:53and on me and on the Army.
17:57Is that code for Jack?
17:58It's code for judgment.
18:00Yours.
18:01And Jeremy's judgment?
18:02Still pristine?
18:03He's an officer and will be your fiancée.
18:07So on property, dress it up however you want.
18:09That's what you mean.
18:10You're not here to question policy.
18:12You're here to prove that you still belong in this world.
18:14Now stay away from that private
18:16or I'll make sure that neither of you
18:18make it to the finish of the season.
18:23Late for a debrief, boss.
18:26Not if I'm bringing something useful.
18:29Jack Callahan, you know that name, right?
18:31The recruit?
18:32I'm a shadow.
18:33No.
18:34Jack Callahan, only son of Owen Callahan,
18:37chairman and CEO of Callahan Defense Systems.
18:40The same company used to supply half of this base's tech.
18:44That's not possible.
18:46We vet everyone.
18:47Not if he's trying to disappear.
18:48No fanfare, no press.
18:50He just enlists under a private transfer
18:52through a proxy recruiter.
18:54It's legal but buried.
18:55So what, he's hearing some kind of PR stunt?
18:58More like self-assigned field research.
19:01Understand the product from the user's perspective.
19:03That's the line he gave Emma.
19:05Why he told Emma this?
19:06Every word.
19:07She knew this and she didn't report it.
19:09She's protecting him, just like she's protecting
19:11their relationship.
19:12Fraternization, national security risk.
19:15Rounds for full discharge.
19:17For both of them.
19:18Way more.
19:25What are you doing?
19:26Something I should have done before I deployed.
19:29I know we've had our attentions.
19:30I know I haven't always made space for what you need,
19:32but I've always known what we are.
19:33Jeremy, not here.
19:34Not here, then where?
19:36This is where we met.
19:37Where we trained.
19:38Where we became what we are.
19:43Marry me.
19:44Get up.
19:46This is real.
19:47I'm not playing games.
19:49No, you're just making moves.
19:51You want to be seen as strong,
19:52then you stand with me the way we're supposed to.
19:54Jeremy, get up.
19:59You say no to this,
20:01you better be ready for what comes next.
20:06What are you laughing at, huh?
20:14Are you lost?
20:16I just thought I'd drop the requisition list.
20:18You left it in the admin tent.
20:20You don't usually do favors.
20:22Maybe I'm just tired of pretending I don't notice things.
20:25You and Emma.
20:26The looks, the disappearances,
20:29the not-so-secret secrets.
20:31Is this where you tell me I'm not good enough?
20:33No.
20:34This is where I remind you
20:36that there's an easier path
20:38with fewer risks.
20:41Like me.
20:43You could have a clean slate.
20:46A promotion.
20:47A future that doesn't depend on someone
20:50who's already halfway out the door.
20:52And you don't have to say anything right now,
20:56but stop pretending like you haven't thought about it before.
20:59I'm not yours to manipulate.
21:03Sorry to interrupt.
21:04I'll let you get back to whatever this is.
21:11Emma, wait.
21:14She came into my tent.
21:16I didn't ask for that.
21:17You didn't stop her either.
21:19Yes, I did.
21:20You weren't there.
21:21Do you know what it feels like
21:22to have someone reach out like they already own you?
21:24I've only ever wanted you.
21:26Nothing has changed.
21:27Then why does it feel like I keep walking in
21:29on the middle of your story?
21:30So this is where we're doing it now.
21:32Mid-base, midnight apologies.
21:35Jeremy, not here, not now.
21:36You humiliate me in front of half the base,
21:38and now you're sneaking around with him again.
21:40We weren't sneaking around.
21:41That is rich.
21:42Following someone like a damn stray dog
21:44after you spend weeks lying to him.
21:46Stop!
21:47No, let's talk about what's going on here.
21:49Let's talk about what he is
21:50and what you're willing to risk chasing.
21:52Whatever this is.
21:53Watch your tone.
21:54That's enough!
21:56Stand down.
21:57Sir, I think you should...
21:58You're dismissed.
22:00All of you.
22:01That means you too, private.
22:06You summoned me?
22:08Do you think this is a game?
22:10No, sir.
22:11You humiliated an officer publicly,
22:13and now you're crawling around with a soldier.
22:15You barely know a soldier
22:17who's going to drag you down with him.
22:19I'm not.
22:19Don't talk.
22:21You will accept Jeremy's proposal.
22:23You will marry him for the next appointment.
22:25Do you understand me?
22:27You can't force me.
22:29You know what happens if you walk away from this?
22:32No army, no clearance, no future.
22:36Why are you doing this?
22:38Because I'm not going to watch you throw your life
22:41for some private and play soldier.
22:43Say it right now.
22:46Yes, sir.
22:48Get cleaned up.
22:51Go make it public first thing in the morning.
22:57Morning.
22:57Morning.
23:00Look, I know this isn't how you pictured it,
23:03but this, it fixes everything.
23:04I'm not broken.
23:07That's not what I meant.
23:09We don't have to be in love, Emma.
23:11We have to be aligned.
23:13You and me, we're built for this.
23:15Legacy, power, security.
23:18What if I want more than that?
23:19Then you'd be gone already, but you're not.
23:21You say yes to this, everything stabilizes.
23:24For you, for me, for your father.
23:26This is how we win.
23:29Do it quickly.
23:30Gentlemen, before we begin this morning's assignments,
23:43I am proud to acknowledge an announcement
23:45from Captain Rose.
23:46This base has been a test of all of us,
23:50who we are under pressure,
23:52who we protect.
23:54For me, it's shown me who I want beside me
23:57when it matters.
23:58Emma Whitmore,
24:00will you marry me?
24:02Yes.
24:03I'd like to say a few words.
24:21When I first met Emma,
24:22she didn't follow any rules,
24:24but leadership comes in many forms.
24:27It takes strength to choose order,
24:30to choose a man like Jeremy.
24:32To the future, Mrs. Rhodes.
24:54Can I do anything to help?
24:55You shouldn't be here.
24:56That stopped mattering weeks ago,
24:58and you said yes right in front of me.
25:00Yeah, and I saw you look right at me,
25:02and then leave.
25:03Because I thought you were gone,
25:04and then I had to watch you say yes
25:06in front of everyone.
25:07You think I wanted that?
25:08I think you let it happen,
25:10and I think you're letting him win.
25:12I'm not letting anything happen.
25:14You don't know what he's holding over me,
25:16and you don't know what he's capable of.
25:18Then tell me.
25:19It wouldn't change anything.
25:20It would change me.
25:21Listen, I never asked you to pick me.
25:24I just wanted to believe that you would try it.
25:29You have no idea how hard I'm trying.
25:31I'm engaged to a man I don't love,
25:33controlled by a father who doesn't even see me,
25:35and now I'm haunted by a man
25:37who still looks at me like I could be his future.
25:39Then run with me right now.
25:42I can't.
25:58We all saw her face.
25:59There's a difference between saying yes and meaning it.
26:03He staged that whole thing.
26:05He's trying to lock it down before something explodes.
26:07It already did.
26:09Well, you think this is over?
26:09You better walk away before someone gets hurt.
26:13You were just another name on a roster,
26:15and then she looked at you like you mattered.
26:17You want to finish this now?
26:18Finish your gloves.
26:19It doesn't matter.
26:25No medals.
26:27No ranks.
26:28Just truth.
26:37You trying to get medical leave?
26:38Enough of the talking.
26:41Here we go, boys.
26:42You're either walking out,
26:43or getting carried out.
26:59Cheap shot, Rogue.
27:00Come on!
27:01You're not mad that I took her.
27:04You're mad because she never even wanted you.
27:05You're not mad that I took her.
27:08You're mad because she never even wanted you.
27:08You're mad that I took her.
27:16You're mad.
27:17You're mad.
27:18They don't want the paperwork.
27:22Was it satisfying?
27:24Watching my dad?
27:25Watching my face.
27:27No.
27:28You know, I tried, right?
27:30You tried to control me.
27:31Because I didn't know how to keep you.
27:33You always look like you belong to the light.
27:37I was just trying to keep both.
27:39You don't have to be like him right now.
27:41No.
27:42Like Alden?
27:57You shouldn't be here.
28:01I shouldn't be.
28:05And yet?
28:07I saw you walk away.
28:09And that hurt more than saying yes ever did.
28:11You can't keep coming and calling like this.
28:13It's killing me.
28:14Then let me stay.
28:16Are you sure?
28:17I'm sure.
28:31To be continued.
28:33This is the best.
28:35This is the best.
28:37Then let's go of the wars.
28:39It's a bad game.
28:41It is a bad game.
28:43And it's a bad game.
29:15If I run away from all this, I must have been for sale.
29:26That's all I've been waiting for.
29:41Copy you.
29:43You wanted to see me, sir?
29:45How's your father?
29:46Stable, last I heard, but still stubborn.
29:50That's how I remember him.
29:51We grew up on the same street.
29:52Did you know that?
29:53No, sir.
29:54He was my best friend.
29:56I kind of keep your secrets, even when you don't deserve it.
29:59Is that why I'm still here?
30:00I knew who you were the moment I saw your name on the enlistment roll.
30:04Your father called in a favor.
30:06Said you needed time, perspective.
30:09I knew this whole time, the questions, the threats.
30:14That wasn't for me.
30:16That was theater.
30:17Stand down, son.
30:18It was protection until it wasn't.
30:20This space is under review.
30:25Command wants clean optics.
30:26No scandal, no stories.
30:28Just order.
30:29I'm not a part of that order?
30:31You were never supposed to matter.
30:33Then Emma happened.
30:35I've tried to keep you safe, but she's my daughter.
30:37And I can't protect both of you.
30:38So what happens now?
30:41You disappear, quietly, with honor.
30:45Or we all go down.
30:58What was so urgent?
31:00I need to tell you something.
31:01Before somebody else tells you their version.
31:03Is it about Harper?
31:04No.
31:05It's about your father and me.
31:06He's known who I was this whole time.
31:08From day one, my enlistment wasn't random.
31:11My father asked him to keep me under the radar,
31:14to give me perspective for a reset.
31:15So you're saying that this was just a favor?
31:18I didn't ask for it.
31:19I didn't even know until today.
31:21And he just told you this out of the kindness of his heart?
31:24No, because Command knows.
31:26And now he wants me gone, quietly.
31:28So this whole time you were here,
31:30you were protected by him
31:31while I was getting interrogated, threatened.
31:34I never used it.
31:35I didn't even want it.
31:37Well, I was falling for you.
31:38You were still a part of their game.
31:40I didn't know, Emma.
31:41I swear.
31:41I didn't know.
31:42You always say that.
31:43I didn't know.
31:44I didn't mean to.
31:44Maybe that's the real problem.
31:46You only figure things out when it's too late.
31:48I only told you this because I thought you deserved the truth.
31:50Well, here's mine.
31:51I don't know who to hate more right now.
31:52Him
31:53or you.
31:55I take no pleasure in this.
32:05Then don't do it.
32:06That's not how this works.
32:09You're going to marry Captain Rhodes.
32:11There's a ceremony scheduled.
32:1348 hours.
32:14It'll be quiet, contained, and attended by command reps.
32:18Afterward, your record will be sealed and we'll all move forward.
32:21You think this fixes it?
32:23It neutralizes it.
32:24You're treating this like a scandal cleanup, like I'm a problem that you have to manage.
32:29You are my daughter, and this is the price of protecting your name and mine.
32:34And Jack?
32:35We'll go quietly reassigned.
32:36No charges, no noise.
32:38That was the deal.
32:39So you protect the institution and just bury everything else?
32:42I gave you space.
32:43I'll let you make mistakes.
32:45This one doesn't get to leave a footprint.
32:47I expect you to cooperate.
32:48Dress fitting is at 0800 hours.
32:50What if I say no?
32:52Then you're no longer my daughter.
32:57Understood, sir.
33:03Sorry, I usually tie tents, not dresses.
33:06But Miss Whitmore, I think you look fantastic.
33:11Wow.
33:12You look perfect.
33:16It's not real.
33:17It's real enough.
33:19After this, everything resets.
33:22The whispers stop.
33:23The paperwork disappears.
33:25We go back to where we were supposed to be.
33:27I don't even know what that means anymore.
33:29You and me.
33:31Version everyone respects.
33:33I was never that version.
33:35Then fake it a little longer.
33:38Just get through the ceremony, and I'll give you space.
33:41I can sleep in a different tent for all I care.
33:44But we finish this together.
33:46Fine.
33:47Good.
34:04Have you seen requisitions for the north perimeter detail?
34:07I think Corporal Dittwit filed it this morning.
34:09Didn't expect to see you working comms.
34:11Just tying up some loose ends.
34:12Are you always this helpful?
34:14I guess scandal brings out the teen spirit, right?
34:17You know, Whitmore, it's always the people who
34:19pretend to follow the rules who break them the hardest.
34:25You saying that to me or about me?
34:27Just an observation.
34:28But you'll want to get ahead of it.
34:30It seems like things are about to get messy.
34:32We'll see.
34:41Yo, check out base T-Chat.
34:45That's the general's kid.
34:46And Callahan?
34:47I thought he was just a grunt.
34:49I didn't know he had it in him.
34:54I swear, I didn't.
34:56I know.
34:58It doesn't matter now.
34:59We'll work this out.
35:00Together or separately?
35:02It's cute.
35:04Real cute.
35:06Are you going to explain or let the pictures talk?
35:09Not here.
35:11Show's over.
35:12Get back to work.
35:16You don't know who you're messing with.
35:2224 hours ago, this base had just now every private
35:26with a data plan of the paparazzi.
35:27I want this breach traced.
35:29Comm's a scrubbing channel, sir.
35:31My team's isolating the origin server.
35:33Origin's not the problem.
35:35The receptionist at the brigade thinks for a soap opera.
35:38And that perception changes tomorrow at 1,300 hours.
35:41When you put a ring on my daughter's hand,
35:43the camera captures all the unity.
35:45Understood?
35:46Yes, sir.
35:47This waiting carries the weight of my command.
35:49To your reputation, your mother's memory.
35:52One flawless ceremony, and all the chatter dies.
35:55I want sabotaging, sir.
35:57See that you don't.
35:58Lieutenant Boss will take point.
36:00Guest list, press frames, photos.
36:02All locked by 1,800 hours.
36:05I don't care who took the photos.
36:08After tomorrow, they mean nothing.
36:10Give them the perfect story to play.
36:13Dismissed.
36:23You leech them.
36:27I manage logistics, not gossip.
36:30Angle, timestamp, vantage point.
36:33Only someone with your clearance could pull that feed.
36:36You know, you think you're a damsel in distress.
36:39But no, Whitmore, you're a damsel in disgrace.
36:41You've ruined careers for sport.
36:43What's the win?
36:44Truth, accountability, and maybe a promotion
36:47when command sees who keeps the house clean.
36:50My father will know.
36:51Father already knows everything.
36:52And tomorrow, he's going to walk you down the aisle
36:55like a pretty apology.
36:56My hands are clean, yours never were.
37:03Sir, we need to talk now.
37:06I'll leave it to us, sir.
37:07Make it quick, private.
37:09I'll disappear today.
37:10New post, new name, no noise.
37:13But you call off the wedding, and Emma walks free.
37:15You think this is about two kids in love?
37:17Command wants a narrative.
37:19Fallen daughter reforged through honorable union.
37:22This wedding is a firebreak point
37:23between mutiny and scandal.
37:25Then you burn my record, not hers.
37:27You're not going to die.
37:29I'm going to die.
37:30I'm going to die.
37:31I'm going to die.
37:32I'm going to die.
37:32Your record's not the headline here.
37:34Her face is.
37:36One ceremony, one picture set, story ends.
37:39You were my father's friend.
37:42Which is why you're still standing here.
37:44Walk away now as she keeps her name.
37:46Disrupt tomorrow, and I will shred both of you
37:49with every post-action report till Kingdom Come.
37:53And you better write fast, sir, because I will never
37:56let her stand alone again.
38:02I'm glad you came.
38:19I'm glad you came.
38:21Tomorrow's already planned.
38:43Tomorrow's already planned.
38:45Plans change.
38:50Sign it, and hand it to the chaplain, mid-ceremony.
38:54Then walk towards me.
38:55I'll be waiting.
38:56They'll court-martial you for disruption.
38:58And they'll court-martial you for loving me.
39:00Unless we write a headline they can't spin.
39:02Tomorrow, 1,300 hours loud and clear.
39:04After the shock settles, we'll lead together.
39:06No uniform.
39:07Just us.
39:08Just us.
39:09You should go.
39:10I need to be with you right now.
39:12I used to dream about command like a kid dreams about space.
39:28And now it just feels like orbiting a dead star.
39:31I've tried a different sky.
39:33The call is selfish.
39:34Selfish is living a lie just so other people feel comfortable.
39:37Once I sign, there's no pension, no clearance.
39:40All the doors that my father promised.
39:42We build new doors.
39:45Not a ring, but a promise.
39:56Tangle it together.
40:08Is today the start of the end?
40:10Is it the end or the beginning?
40:12The beginning?
40:13The beginning.
40:1513 hours, you'll hand the chaplain that letter.
40:19Then walk straight towards me.
40:21Would the MPs grab you first?
40:24They'll need a reason with all those witnesses.
40:27It's not good for the optics, right?
40:29Mm-hmm.
40:31After the ceremony, head for the South Service Road.
40:35I stashed a civilian jeep beyond the tree line.
40:38We'll be fugitives.
40:40We'll be free.
40:41We'll be free.
40:58Chaplain's on standby.
40:59Press still outside the wire.
41:01Just smile and salute the flag.
41:03Easy.
41:04You ain't a minute alone with my bride.
41:07Try not to screw this up, Whitmore.
41:15Tell me the truth, Emma.
41:17Answer today where you try, or do you spend the rest of your life
41:22chasing a ghost named Jack?
41:24After today, I don't answer to anyone.
41:27What is this?
41:29A promise you can't touch.
41:31I was the future.
41:33Now I'm a headline footnote because you need adventure.
41:37I needed honesty.
41:38Private Callahan, logistics courier.
41:55Ceremony supplies got rerouted, and I need in.
41:57Our orders are detained, Private Jack Callahan,
41:59under personal audit lockdown.
42:01On a wedding day?
42:03Explain this, Captain.
42:04Man, safeguards optics, Callahan.
42:07You can't risk a logistics mishap spoiling my house.
42:11You can't bury me.
42:13Take them away.
42:15Callahan, don't make us do this the hard way.
42:17Let's go.
42:18No.
42:19No.
42:21Check-ups every 10 minutes.
42:23If you need water, just holler it.
42:25Politely.
42:31Auditors, it's running late.
42:35Figured I'd keep you company.
42:36Ah!
42:41Music's about to roll.
42:42Then say what you came to say.
42:44I know you're waiting for him.
42:45But I had him detained.
42:47Detained where?
42:48You won every war but this one, Dad.
42:50You can still call it all free.
42:52Release him.
42:52End the charade.
42:53The optics are set.
42:55Command, press, donors.
42:57This wedding stabilizes all of us.
42:59All of us?
43:00Or you?
43:01If you walk away from this today, you lose your career,
43:04clearance and any ties to it I can't shield you I'm not asking for your
