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 Luca for years, and then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks.
00:00:31If I can't have him, I'll destroy him.
00:00:35Your life belongs to us.
00:00:38Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.
00:00:43From this moment forward, I swear to you, nobody will ever hurt you.
00:00:49I guess my brother had good reason to fall for her.
00:00:56Ava, you're so close, is this a dream?
00:01:02If anyone sees us like this, then 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?
00:01:18I should never have let you go undercover on that damn business deal.
00:01:36I've 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. I didn't mean to.
00:01:56Luca, look at her.
00:01:59She's hardly a threat.
00:02:07For the flowers.
00:02:09And for the interruption.
00:02:11My apologies.
00:02:13Senor Mancini?
00:02:24Mr. Marco had a widow named Ava Jackson.
00:02:27And she was carrying his child.
00:02:30Get the car.
00:02:32Let me bring my daughter-in-law home.
00:02:34Where she belongs.
00:02:36Don't worry, little one.
00:02:45We'll get through this together.
00:02:48Somehow.
00:02:52Well, looky here.
00:02:55Family Jinx is finally six feet under.
00:02:57Derek!
00:03:06Have you lost your mind?
00:03:07What the hell was that?
00:03:10Don't tell me that you're actually planning on keeping that little parasite.
00:03:14This is Marco's baby.
00:03:16This is our child.
00:03:18Of course I'm keeping it.
00:03:20Ever since you got knocked up, you've done nothing to help this family.
00:03:24Family.
00:03:25We've been struggling while you've been out here playing the grieving widow.
00:03:29Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.
00:03:34Because 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?
00:03:45I'll never be a dog, Ava.
00:03:47You'll owe us till the day you die.
00:03:50Please.
00:03:52Sweetheart.
00:03:53Think of your brother.
00:03:58I'm gonna stomp out that little bastard right now.
00:04:01Send him straight to hell.
00:04:03So he can say hello to his deadbeat dad.
00:04:08Hex!
00:04:23What the hell is going on here?
00:04:28Who the hell are you people?
00:04:31Ava, right?
00:04:33You were here this morning.
00:04:35Enough, Luca.
00:04:37She's hardly up there.
00:04:41Ma'am?
00:04:42I'm Helena Mancini, Marco's mother.
00:04:48That means I'm your baby's grandmother.
00:04:52The most powerful mafia family in the country.
00:04:57Marco was my oldest.
00:04:59He was my golden boy.
00:05:00I am so sorry that he concealed his identity from you.
00:05:05You have endured far too much suffering because of it.
00:05:10Plain make-believe Mancini?
00:05:15Seriously.
00:05:16Like, is anybody here actually buying this?
00:05:18Question my identity again.
00:05:20And my men will make sure your other leg looks like your first one.
00:05:24Ah!
00:05:26Permanently.
00:05:28What are you doing?
00:05:29Derek, run!
00:05:31Maybe we should just go.
00:05:34One moment, dear.
00:05:36Anyone who raises a hand to my daughter-in-law deserves to have their fingers snapped.
00:05:43One by one.
00:05:48Come along, my dear.
00:05:50Let's get you home.
00:05:52To your real home.
00:05:54Oh my God.
00:05:55Oh my God.
00:05:59Oh my God.
00:06:00Oh my God.
00:06:02Oh my God.
00:06:15Welcome home, Signora Eva Mancini.
00:06:19This is where Marco lives.
00:06:20And now, it's your hand.
00:06:21Allow me to introduce you to your personal staff, Mrs. Mancini.
00:06:22Your nutritionist, nanny, maternity nurse, each the finest specialist money can acquire.
00:06:26We pledge your absolute dedication to your health and well-being, Signora.
00:06:27Your days of working multiple jobs are over, my dear.
00:06:29Ten million dollars is a little spending money.
00:06:30Well, thank you.
00:06:31But I can't accept this.
00:06:32I married Marco for love.
00:06:33I married Marco for love.
00:06:34Not for his fortune.
00:06:35I married Marco for love.
00:06:36Not for his fortune.
00:06:38Practical and principled.
00:06:39My Marco truly had an eye for quality.
00:06:41There is one more member of the family that you need to take care of.
00:06:42I married Marco for love.
00:06:43I married Marco for love.
00:06:44I married Marco for love.
00:06:45Not for his fortune.
00:06:46Practical and principled.
00:06:47My Marco truly had an eye for quality.
00:06:48There is one more member of the family that you need to properly meet.
00:06:51That would be Luca, Marco's younger brother.
00:06:53The Bruno Bruno Bruno Bruno Bruno Bruno Bruno Bruno Bruno Bruno Bruno Bruno Bruno Bruno Bruno
00:06:54Well, well, well, well.

00:07:25Ava, your brother's wife. Please, show her proper... Respect! You walk back into a Mancini household?
00:07:38You're either incredibly stupid or incredibly brave. Luca, open this door immediately!
00:07:47Everyone, around back, now! Who are you, really? I'll be watching your every move, your every
00:08:00breath. So tell me, who are you, really? My brother's dead, and you appear suddenly? Was
00:08:09this your endgame all along? Our fortune? I didn't know Marco's a Mancini. I don't need
00:08:16this. I can walk right out those doors. You can't walk anywhere! She's not going anywhere!
00:08:24And get your hands off of her! She is carrying Marco's child. Oh, is she? How do we even
00:08:32know it is, Marco's child? Convenient timing, wouldn't you say?
00:08:38Question the line you want, but don't you dare question my child.
00:08:42That's my girl. Backbone of steel. Are you hurt? Luca, you are too rude. Ava is a good girl.
00:08:52You are falsely accusing her. Come on, sweetie. Mom's going to take you and get some clothes.
00:08:58Pay no attention to this fool.
00:09:03You may be fooling them, but I will find out about you, and I will expose you.
00:09:08These are all the latest European styles. Take your pick. I have plenty to wear. These are much
00:09:30too expensive. Oh, not to worry. It's all on Luca's card. Treat my dear daughter-in-law well.

00:25:28now
00:25:29imagine you're like this
00:25:31i know
00:25:31i know
00:25:33you all
00:25:34i know
00:25:34you all
00:25:34you all
00:25:35are you all
00:25:36you all
00:25:37You all
00:25:38you all
00:25:38you all
00:25:39Ava, time is almost up.
00:26:09I did it. I saved my job and I made a new sales record. Thank you.
00:26:16It's no reason to thank me. I'm here to help. Whenever you need help.
00:26:22I hate to do this, but Ava Jackson, you're fired.
00:26:29What? No. I met your target and then some.
00:26:34Oh, that last sale? The one that put you over the top? That was actually mine.
00:26:40You're trying to steal my commission? Well, that won't work because everyone in this store saw me make that sale.
00:26:51I get it. You threatened them into silence. Well, that won't work either.
00:26:55Because the security cameras caught everything. Security cameras?
00:27:04What a horrible timing. Unfortunately, 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.
00:27:40I heard that this store got trashed.
00:27:42I'm gonna have to ask you to leave or I'm gonna have to call the police.
00:27:45The police work for me.
00:27:47Are you? Luca Mancini?
00:28:21Please stop, I admit it, I was wrong.
00:28:46Who really damaged the merchandise in this store?
00:28:49The items that you destroyed are worth over several millions of dollars.
00:28:52That's five years in prison.
00:28:58Look 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.
00:29:04Come on.
00:29:05Come on.
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.
00:29:22It's all taken care of, thanks to Luca.
00:29:24This door looked like a tornado hit it.
00:29:26Mandy will be serving time in a jail cell.
00:29:29Justice is served.
00:29:30That's my boy.
00:29:35Sweetheart, I would like you to concentrate full-time on your pregnancy right now.
00:29:40All of this work drama can wait until after my grandchild is born safely.
00:29:46Yes, Mommy.
00:29:46I transferred $5 million 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.
00:30:00No.
00:30:02That's really not necessary.
00:30:06I have those meetings in Europe, so possibly I could have some of my substitutions.
00:30:11I'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.
00:30:31No.
00:30:31Ava Jackson, we're ready for you now.
00:30:47Dad should come too.
00:30:48We encourage partner participation.
00:30:51Oh, no.
00:30:52He'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.
00:31:02Mr. 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.
00:31:25First prenatal checkup together, I'm guessing.
00:31:29The 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.
00:31:44Look there.
00:31:46The little one's making faces.
00:31:49Quite 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,
00:32:16and 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.
00:32:38Okay.
00:32:39Sorry, did 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.
00:33:03Gentle strokes.
00:33:04Got it?
00:33:09Got it.
00:33:10Do this once daily, five 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,
00:33:35and there's nothing to worry about.
00:33:39Good news, then.
00:33:42Before I forget,
00:33:43the Rossi family's daughter
00:33:45is having her birthday celebration next weekend,
00:33:48and we should all attend.
00:33:51The Rossi family?
00:33:52Technically, they're our business rivals,
00:33:55but social niceties must be maintained.
00:34:00And she has had an embarrassing crush on Luca
00:34:03since they were little children.
00:34:05Mom, please.
00:34:06Miss Sophia Rossi has arrived unannounced.
00:34:10She shows up without calling?
00:34:13How gauche.
00:34:15Should we send Ava upstairs?
00:34:16No, no, it's fine.
00:34:17I'm here.
00:34:18We can just...
00:34:20Good evening, Mrs. Mancini.
00:34:24Luca!
00:34:25I 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
00:34:38never disappoints me.
00:34:40Luca Mancini,
00:34:41how dare you speak to me like that?
00:34:43Miss Rossi, right?
00:34:45I've heard so much about your family.
00:34:49I'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 I'm nice.
00:35:02I came all this way to bring you that,
00:35:05and this is how you welcome me?
00:35:07Don't disappoint me at the party, darling.
00:35:09Wear something sharp.
00:35:12Yes.
00:35:22See if there's any connection
00:35:24between that pregnant woman and Luca.
00:35:25I'm not buying this whole sister-in-law act
00:35:27for one second.
00:35:29You got it.
00:35:29Oh, you look so handsome.
00:35:39Well, well, well.
00:35:41It looks like my stubborn son
00:35:42has 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?
00:35:51Mm-hmm.
00:35:54I'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?
00:36:21I'm sorry.
00:36:29Oh.
00:36:46Right here.
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.
00:37:17Must be his mistress.
00:37:18Oh, shameless.
00:37:19Everyone, I would like to introduce Ava Mancini,
00:37:24my eldest son Marco's wife.
00:37:26Marco's wife?
00:37:28She'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.
00:37:42It's fine.
00:37:43She's always like this.
00:37:44We didn't mean to steal your spotlight.
00:37:49An apology simply isn't enough.
00:37:52Since 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.
00:38:01Waitress, retail clerk, cleaning lady?
00:38:03What 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.
00:38:56I think he recognized the music you were playing for us earlier.
00:39:02Well, maybe you should teach me sometime properly.
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.
00:39:15One, two, three, and there.
00:39:31Oh, three, four, and I'll be layout.
00:39:32There.
00:39:49There.
00:39:50They'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.
00:40:12Yeah, I always enjoy these type of events.
00:40:20Me too.
00:40:21That had a screw-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.
00:40:34Is 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.
00:40:50We'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.
00:41:12Sophia's bedroom.
00:41:31Why is Luca's phone in there?
00:41:34And why am I jealous?
00:41:53I'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 bed.
00:42:07This isn't exactly how you wanted it.
00:42:09Not at all.
00:42:10This isn't convincing.
00:42:12Unbutton their clothes.
00:42:20Sal, position them closer together.
00:42:22Make it look more intimate.
00:42:23Perfect.
00:42:29Perfect.
00:42:30Let's go.
00:42:31Our 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.
00:43:17What happened to us?
00:43:25This is bad.
00:43:36If anyone sees us like this, they'll immediately assume the worst.
00:43:43Luca, wake up.
00:43:47People 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?
00:44:03I'm your late brother's widow and I'm carrying his child.
00:44:06If anyone sees us like this, they'll...
00:44:07The Mancini family name won't be destroyed.
00:44:10Okay.
00:44:11Okay.
00:44:13Okay.
00:44:13So, Mancini name is what you're concerned about.
00:44:16Is that it?
00:44:17Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:44:19You haven't answered her.
00:44:24Thank 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.
00:44:42Can you let go?
00:44:53Can you let go?
00:44:56They're coming.
00:44:57Come here.
00:45:01Here, I got the sweatshop.
00:45:03Wait, stop.
00:45:04Watch, they'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?
00:45:11Um, we...
00:45:12Let's go through the window.
00:45:14We can climb down.
00:45:15Whoa, whoa, whoa, no.
00:45:16No, no, I'm afraid of heights.
00:45:18You're what?
00:45:21Sorry, I just didn't realize the great Luca Mancini had fears like the rest of us.
00:45:26Yeah, you know, that's one of my fears and I don't advertise it, so deal with it.
00:45:32What else do you...
00:45:35Who are these cheaters you promised to expose?
00:45:38Shh, keep it down, you idiot.
00:45:40You don't want to wake them.
00:45:41I mean, we don't want to alert them to give them a chance to escape.
00:45:46They're coming.
00:45:46Let's go.
00:45:49Okay.
00:45:50Hurry, hurry.
00:45:54No, no, no, no.
00:45:55Don't run.
00:45:56We have to catch them in the act first.
00:45:57Are you insane?
00:45:59Your house is on fire.
00:46:00Who cares about the gossip?
00:46:02Let's get out of here.
00:46:02No, no, no.
00:46:03No, I'll help everyone leave afterwards.
00:46:05But first, let's get a look at them.
00:46:06Come on.
00:46:14Oh, hi.
00:46:28What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:46:32I am so sorry.
00:46:33It was an accident.
00:46:34Please.
00:46:36Okay?
00:46:36Yeah.
00:46:39The staff prepared everything for you and there's hot water in there.
00:46:42And what about you?
00:46:48We'll just be out here taking guard for you.
00:46:52Now go on.
00:46:53It's warm.
00:46:55Thanks.
00:46:56Oh, my God.
00:47:20What is it?
00:47:29Uh, Miss Rossi is demanding to see you, sir.
00:47:32She's quite insistent.
00:47:34Okay, let her run.
00:47:39You set off these fire alarms and completely scared away my guests!
00:47:43You ruined my birthday celebration!
00:47:50Hey, 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 from this city permanently.
00:48:10You're a monster.
00:48:12That's her in there, isn't it? Ava?
00:48:14Your dead brother's wife?
00:48:16How dare you?
00:48:18Get your hands off of me! Do you know who I am?
00:48:37Luca?
00:48:39Luca, it's me, Michael.
00:48:50Ava, you're so close. Is this a dream?
00:48:58Luca, I'm your brother's wife.
00:49:02So, so this isn't a dream.
00:49:04I, um...
00:49:05Ava, I've had feelings for you for so long.
00:49:11And 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.
00:49:27Luca, let me go.
00:49:29No, no, no.
00:49:30But I can't silence you because, Ava, I have fallen in love with you.
00:49:34Luca, that's not funny.
00:49:38Luca, I've never been more serious.
00:49:40Luca, look, Ava, every time I come around to you, I...
00:49:46I feel myself slipping.
00:49:48And my feelings have crossed that line months ago.
00:49:52Stop, stop, just stop.
00:49:56I'll forget this ever happened.
00:49:58No, Ava.
00:49:59I want to take care of you.
00:50:02And the baby.
00:50:04For the rest of my life.
00:50:13Luca.
00:50:14Hi.
00:50:15I know that you try, but you can't let me in.
00:50:20Luca, what's going on?
00:50:22Why isn't Ava home?
00:50:24What's going on here?
00:50:27Mom, I...
00:50:28Nothing.
00:50:29My clothes were dirty, so Luca prepared for me a shower and clean clothes.
00:50:35Oh, thank goodness.
00:50:37The last thing we need is for you to catch pneumonia.
00:50:40Yeah, I know.
00:50:41Ava, I think that we should probably...
00:50:44Luca.
00:50:45It'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.
00:50:59Oh, you poor thing.
00:51:00You must be utterly exhausted.
00:51:02Let's get you home.
00:51:04These Rossi's are nothing but trouble.
00:51:07We need to accelerate our plans against them.
00:51:09Changing hearts.
00:51:10Changing hearts.
00:51:11Changing hearts.
00:51:12Changing hearts.
00:51:13Changing hearts.
00:51:14Changing hearts.
00:51:15Marco.
00:51:16I miss you.
00:51:17I feel so lost without you.
00:51:22Would you hate me if you knew I had feelings for your brother?
00:51:41Ava, are you in there?
00:51:45I meant everything that I said today.
00:51:59And I want to help you get through this and I want to protect you.
00:52:03Marco and Mom, they would both understand.
00:52:08Ava, I love you.
00:52:10I understand how difficult this is.
00:52:27Your loyalty for Marco and your concern for my mother, that is the compassion that...
00:52:33that's the reason I fell in love with you.
00:52:40There's 30 million dollars on this credit card.
00:52:43And the pin number is your birthday.
00:52:45Been through eps and flows.
00:52:47Let's get by, fell like the end.
00:52:50Can't deny, I can't pretend.
00:52:53This fire burns again.
00:52:56When we made it 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.
00:53:11I'm falling like you.
00:53:13Wait for me.
00:53:14No one loves me like you do.
00:53:17Thought that you and I were through.
00:53:20The baby's development is right on track.
00:53:30Perfect, actually.
00:53:32Has your husband been doing those tactile bonding exercises I showed you?
00:53:37Doctor, uh, actually he's not exactly my...
00:53:41Okay, we don't need to be embarrassed.
00:53:43The way that man looks at you is something special.
00:53:47Now face each other.
00:53:52Helena, take her hands.
00:53:55Deep inhale.
00:53:57And lean into each other.
00:54:00Using each other's weight to support you.
00:54:04Come up.
00:54:10On the exhale, do a gentle squat.
00:54:13And then share and embrace.
00:54:16And then share and embrace.
00:54:22You're at any home.
00:54:29Who exactly are you welcoming home, dear daughter-in-law?
00:54:32I was just talking nonsense.
00:54:36Ha ha, yes.
00:54:46I'll get it.
00:54:52Miss, flowers from Mr. Mancini.
00:55:06I wonder if he's doing well out there.
00:55:30There.
00:55:45Hello?
00:55:46Ava?
00:55:47I'm outside at the gate.
00:55:49Security won't let me in.
00:55:51Mom, what are you doing here?
00:55:57I missed you terribly, sweetheart.
00:55:59I just wanted to check on you and the baby.
00:56:06Look.
00:56:07Fresh oranges.
00:56:09Just pick today.
00:56:10You need the vitamin C for the baby's development.
00:56:12I'm on a very carefully monitored diet.
00:56:16You wasted a trip.
00:56:20Look.
00:56:22I 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.
00:56:40I picked these up for my grandchild.
00:56:43Aren't they precious?
00:56:46That 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.
00:57:12It'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?
00:57:25$10,000.
00:57:26$10,000?
00:57:29That's it.
00:57:31You're carrying the Mancini heir and all they've given you is $10,000.
00:57:36That is my personal savings.
00:57:39I haven't asked the Mancinis for a cent.
00:57:41Okay, 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.
00:57:54Honey, I'm only thinking about your future and your security.
00:58:07I mean, what happens if they throw you out once the baby arrives?
00:58:12I didn't marry into the Mancini family for their fortune.
00:58:16And you mention their money one more time, you'll never see me again.
00:58:20Understood?
00:58:21I understand, sweetheart.
00:58:24Mom won't say another word about it.
00:58:30$10,000?
00:58:32That's it?
00:58:33That's pocket change for them!
00:58:35She must be holding down on this.
00:58:39That ungrateful little brat.
00:58:42I tried everything.
00:58:44I couldn't squeeze another penny out of her.
00:58:45She's swimming in Mancini money, and we're here struggling.
00:58:49After what they did to my leg, I should be getting millions!
00:58:52Yes. A few million?
00:58:54It's just the beginning.
00:58:56We've been thinking too small.
00:58:57I have good reason to believe that we have a common enemy.
00:59:12I think we should work together.
00:59:13Miss Mancini has been sleeping well, sir.
00:59:14She got the prenatal vitamins you sent her, and they effectively reduced her morning sickness.
00:59:27And 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.
00:59:41Well, it's good to hear that she's eating healthy.
00:59:43And then she finally attended the prenatal concert we arranged, and afterward she spoke with one of the pianists about the compositions.
00:59:51Is it man or woman?
00:59:53Sir, per your instructions, they were all talented women. No exceptions.
00:59:57And she actually mentioned you today.
00:59:59While making hot chocolate, she said to the chef,
01:00:02It's never quite as good as Luca's.
01:00:05She always knows what to say.
01:00:08I'll make her a batch right now, and we can have it delivered.
01:00:11Great. I'll arrange your private courier right away.
01:00:19Luca is almost finished with his business.
01:00:22Hopefully, he will make it home in time for the birth.
01:00:25Mrs. Mancini.
01:00:28Terrible news.
01:00:29Luca's jet has been destroyed in mid-flight heat.
01:00:31He's missing.
01:00:32What?
01:00:34I want every detail immediately.
01:00:36Yes, ma'am.
01:00:38Ava, breathe.
01:00:39Breathe.
01:00:40Don't panic.
01:00:41Don't panic.
01:00:42Luca has always been lucky.
01:00:44He's gonna be fine.
01:00:45He will.
01:00:51Hello?
01:00:52I have Luca Mancini.
01:00:53Twenty million dollars cash for his safe return.
01:00:56No police.
01:00:57No family.
01:00:58No security team.
01:01:00You come alone, or he dies.
01:01:03You have 24 hours.
01:01:09Oh, Ava, are you okay?
01:01:11Who was that?
01:01:12It's nothing, nothing.
01:01:13I...
01:01:14I...
01:01:15I'm just dizzy.
01:01:16The...
01:01:17The baby.
01:01:18So, I'm gonna go upstairs and lie down.
01:01:20Whew.
01:01:21Okay.
01:01:22Okay.
01:01:23Here.
01:01:24Oh.
01:01:25Here.
01:01:26Oh.
01:01:27Oh.
01:01:28Oh.
01:01:29Oh.
01:01:30Oh.
01:01:31Oh.
01:01:32Oh.
01:01:33Oh.
01:01:34Oh.
01:01:35Oh.
01:01:36Oh.
01:01:37Oh.
01:01:38Oh.
01:01:39Oh.
01:01:40Oh.
01:01:41Oh.
01:01:43Oh.
01:01:45Oh.
01:01:46Oh.
01:01:47Oh.
01:01:50Ow.
01:01:51You okay?
01:01:52Terek.
01:01:53Where is Luca?
01:01:54Where is Luca?
01:01:55Don't worry about Luca.
01:01:56Worry about yourself.
01:02:01Come on.
01:02:02Don't worry though, Luca.
01:02:04Worry about yourself.
01:02:23Yeah, with her as our bargaining chip,
01:02:26we can demand a hundred million dollars from the manchins.
01:02:33Mom, Mom, why are you doing this?
01:02:36Poor family, why have you always treated me so terribly?
01:02:43Family?
01:02:45You are so pathetic!
01:02:48You just don't get it, do you?
01:02:50You're just some brat that Mom found on the street
01:02:52that she brought home to be our living servant.
01:02:56You're an orphan!
01:02:59Not even your birth mother wanted you!
01:03:03Yeah, we brought you in.
01:03:05We fed you, we clothed you.
01:03:07And in return, your life belongs to us.
01:03:12Oh, and by the way, since we're being honest with each other right now,
01:03:17my whole leg injury, it's kind of my fault.
01:03:21But it was a great excuse to get you to basically give up your life
01:03:25and be our slave in all these years.
01:03:31You know what?
01:03:35Even though you're nothing but a bunch of orphan trash,
01:03:39you're actually very beautiful.
01:03:41So since we're giving up this whole brother-sister roleplay thing,
01:03:47I don't want to do something that I've wanted to do for a very, very long time.
01:03:56Stop, Dirk! You're sick!
01:03:58Shhhhhh!
01:03:59Shhhhhh!
01:04:00Shhhhhh!
01:04:01Shhhhhh!
01:04:02Shhhhhh!
01:04:03Now let's just keep that pretty little mouth of yours quiet, shall we?
01:04:07Shhhhhh!
01:04:08Shhhhhh!
01:04:09Shhhhhh!
01:04:10Shhhhhh!
01:04:11Shhhhhh!
01:04:12Shhhhhh!
01:04:13Shhhhhh!
01:04:14Shhhhhh!
01:04:15Shhhhhh!
01:04:16Shhhhhh!
01:04:17Shhhhhh!
01:04:18Shhhhhh!
01:04:19Shhhhhh!
01:04:20Shhhhhh!
01:04:21Shhhhhh H ŁŲ§Ł on power, Kika, Naara.
01:04:22Oh god!
01:04:23You're alive!
01:04:24Shhhhhh!
01:04:25Shhhhhh!
01:04:26Shhhhhhhh!
01:04:27Shhhhhh!
01:04:28Shhhhhh!
01:04:33Shhhhhh!
01:04:34Shhhhhh!
01:04:35Shhhhhh!
01:04:36Look!
01:04:37You're alive!
01:04:38You're okay!
01:04:39Shhhugs!
01:04:40Shhhhhh!
01:04:41AALK!
01:04:42GAH!!!!!
01:04:43Moses!
01:04:44Stop!
01:04:45Stop!
01:04:46Ah!
01:04:47My plane blew up. Ava gets kidnapped. This isn't a coincidence. Who are you looking for?
01:04:53Answer me!
01:04:58Hey, make them stop! He's your brother!
01:05:02You'll kill him!
01:05:03You just told me I'm an orphan, so he's not really my little brother.
01:05:06You better tell me who your accomplices are, or he stops breathing.
01:05:10You two should be ashamed of yourselves.
01:05:13Can I see the way that you look at each other?
01:05:15He's your dead husband's brother.
01:05:18You're betraying Marco and his mother.
01:05:23Are you alright? Hey, hey, hey. You okay?
01:05:26Yeah, yeah.
01:05:28Your mom has been so kind to me, and I dragged her into this mess.
01:05:32It's on my floor.
01:05:34Your mother-in-law took you in.
01:05:37She treated you like a daughter.
01:05:38She gave you everything that you could ever want, and this is how you repay her?
01:05:42By falling for her younger son?
01:05:45Have you already forgotten Marco? It is his grave?
01:05:48What is wrong with you?
01:05:53I want her as my daughter-in-law.
01:05:56First my eldest son's wife, and now my youngest.
01:06:02Objective then, and you'll lose your tongue.
01:06:05You couldn't have Luca, so you decided to try and kill him?
01:06:22Good thing he changed his flight plan at the last minute, hmm?
01:06:27Cross the Mancini's, and you cease to exist.
01:06:31Release me.
01:06:33My father will burn your empire to the ground.
01:06:38Don't you wonder why my son was gone all that time?
01:06:44Your family's power...
01:06:47already lost.
01:06:49You two have risked everything to be together.
01:07:05I can see that Luca's devotion is absolute.
01:07:11You have endured far too much pain.
01:07:17It's time to let him take care of you.
01:07:19But...
01:07:20Marco...
01:07:21I made a promise to him.
01:07:24And Marco...
01:07:26would want your happiness...
01:07:29above all else.
01:07:31He will rest easier...
01:07:33knowing that we are protecting you...
01:07:36and your child.
01:07:42From this moment forward...
01:07:44I swear to you, nobody will ever hurt you again.
01:07:51Luca, you're bleeding.
01:07:56You gotta keep this clean.
01:07:57Yeah.
01:07:58Infections can get nasty.
01:08:00So 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.
01:08:17All right.
01:08:23All right.
01:08:25All right.
01:08:26All right.
01:08:27All right.
01:08:28All right.
01:08:29All right.
01:08:31All right.
01:08:32All right.
01:08:40Oh.
01:08:42I think he likes you.
01:08:43Yeah.
01:08:49Ava...
01:08:50I will take care of you.
01:08:52And the baby.
01:08:54Just like my brother would have.
01:08:56I brought some fruit for you and the...
01:08:57for you and the...
01:09:00Luca!
01:09:02She's pregnant.
01:09:04Be gentle with her.
01:09:08I think maybe you should get some less.
01:09:11Okay.
01:09:15Oh!
01:09:16Wait!
01:09:19What is it?
01:09:20I think I'm in labor.
01:09:22Oh my god.
01:09:23Come here, come here.
01:09:25Take easy sleep.
01:09:27What is taking so long?
01:09:32Is something wrong?
01:09:33She's gone into labor early.
01:09:35Have you two been intimate recently?
01:09:38We 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, yes, we'll do anything.
01:09:54It's no object.
01:09:55Just help her.
01:09:57Some intimate touches can help her relax and feel better.
01:10:05Right here.
01:10:07Right here.
01:10:08Yes.
01:10:09Mom, I can't...
01:10:10I can't...
01:10:11Just whip it out.
01:10:12Don't...
01:10:13Hurry it up.
01:10:14I can't...
01:10:15I can't...
01:10:16Just whip it out.
01:10:17Don't...
01:10:18Hurry it up.
01:10:19I can't...
01:10:20We're just looking out.
01:10:21No identity.
01:10:22Look at all.
01:10:23It's all right.
01:10:24You have to be careful.
01:10:25It doesn't exist.
01:10:26It doesn't exist.
01:10:27It doesn't exist.
01:10:28I can't do it.
01:10:29No.
01:10:30No.
01:10:33Yes.
01:10:34It doesn't exist.
01:10:35You're such ablick.
01:10:36I can't...
01:10:38It's a thing that unfolds.
01:10:39It should be better.
01:10:40It's a thing.
01:10:41It's a thing.
01:10:42I hope things are going smoothly in there.
01:10:52They'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?
01:11:08Doctor, please!
01:11:09Doctor, please!
01:11:12One, two, three, push.
01:11:20One, two, three, push.
01:11:23One, two, three, push!
01:11:24Push, push, push!
01:11:25Hey.
01:11:27Hi.
01:11:29How you feeling?
01:11:31Good.
01:11:33You want something to eat?
01:11:35I'm okay.
01:11:37Okay.
01:11:39I'm sorry.
01:11:41Hey.
01:11:43Hi.
01:11:45How you feeling?
01:11:47Good.
01:11:49You want something to eat?
01:11:51I'm okay.
01:11:53I thought this hospital was the best that money can buy.
01:11:57I guess I was misinformed.
01:11:59Look.
01:12:01They're doing the best they can.
01:12:03Let's not terrorize the staff.
01:12:07Look.
01:12:09I just don't want to see you in any more pain.
01:12:11You would tear me apart.
01:12:19Luca?
01:12:23Remember to control yourself, son.
01:12:25Let her recover first.
01:12:37And have you decided what to name this little prince?
01:12:41Marco.
01:12:43Marco.
01:12:45I want to name him Marco.
01:12:47I want to name him Marco.
01:12:49Well, I don't know...
01:13:11Look, little one.
01:13:13It's your daddy.
01:13:15You're a real daddy.
01:13:21It's remarkable how much he looks like.
01:13:24Marco.
01:13:26I thought you had all the answers.
01:13:29And that you handle everything.
01:13:32And I promise to protect mom.
01:13:36The business.
01:13:38And your family.
01:13:41Our family.
01:13:45You know Marco used to say.
01:13:48That.
01:13:49If you wanted to think about somebody.
01:13:51You would.
01:13:52Watch the dandelion.
01:13:53And if the seeds blew out easily.
01:13:54Then they were thinking of you too.
01:14:15Miss.
01:14:16Mrs. Mancini's wedding gifts.
01:14:17The finest villas.
01:14:18The Mancini family jewelry.
01:14:19And finally.
01:14:2030% ownership of Mancini group holdings.
