The Heir Of My Konos Completed
Transcript
00:00Then you must owe me lunch.
00:03Get in, Alexandros.
00:04You will lose everything over this.
00:06Your name, your position.
00:08They run the country pretty much.
00:10That's who I just had breakfast with?
00:11I was supposed to take over.
00:12Elena was part of the plan.
00:14Then what am I?
00:15You're the first thing I've ever chosen for myself.
00:17You walk away from me now.
00:18You are not walking away clean.
00:20Wait, she's pregnant?
00:21Something about this whole Elena thing doesn't add up.
00:24Your father's concerned.
00:26There's been talk about that girl.
00:27You will marry Elena.
00:29She fits the life you were born with.
00:31Well, if she won't leave on her own,
00:34it will help her find her.
00:36Is that what they think I am?
00:38A passing storm?
00:39She's just trying to scare you.
00:40The only reason any of this is happening is because of Elena.
00:43Then stop letting her win.
00:44Whatever Elena started, all ended.
00:47What exactly am I being paid for?
00:49To forget us all and to forget Greece.
00:52You can't buy me off.
00:53Still ignoring my text, huh?
00:54Andrew, are you stalking me?
00:56People who care make it their business to know.
00:58I can't run the company anymore, Alex.
01:01It's your turn to lead.
01:02I never wanted the crown.
01:03I'll respect what you built.
01:04I'll protect it.
01:05But only on my terms.
01:06I love Kate.
01:08She's part of my future.
01:09You really think we can win against them?
01:11Only if we stop playing nice.
01:12Either we keep up or get replaced.
01:14I'm just scared of what this might mean for us.
01:17No matter what happens now, you're not doing this alone.
01:21Or if we stop playing nice or switching games for us
01:32Hey, careful.
01:34Oh my God, you just saved me a thousand euros.
01:35Then you must owe me lunch.
01:40Hey, careful.
01:42Oh, my God.
01:43You just saved me a thousand euros.
01:45Then you must owe me lunch.
01:47Do all locals who flirt after new collisions?
01:49You are in my way, not my fault.
01:52Looking for something in particular?
01:54I just got here.
01:55I'm a photographer.
01:56I'm looking for hidden gems to shoot.
01:59And maybe a place to breathe.
02:00I love the sunlight here.
02:02I'm from here.
02:03Could show you a few spots.
02:05No offense, but that's how tourists disappear.
02:08Oldest bakery on the island is around the corner.
02:10You're more than welcome to follow.
02:12Or not.
02:21You know, my family's Rebecca's, and I like it.
02:28Slain with heries.
02:30Yeah, I'll be keeping a line when we follow.
02:37Okay, that wasn't real.
02:39I told you.
02:40No tourist ever finds this place online.
02:42Hey.
02:44You're a real local.
02:46Suspicious?
02:47Curious.
02:49You coming or just making comments?
02:50I'd just like to know who I'm following.
02:52A new friend.
02:54Are you always this cryptic or just with tourists?
02:57Depends who's asking.
02:58All right.
03:06I'm impressed.
03:10You capture things most people miss.
03:13Flattery won't get you far.
03:16Or maybe it will.
03:17Who knows what the future holds.
03:19What was that?
03:27Something that felt right.
03:29Who are you?
03:31Does it matter?
03:36What was that?
03:38Probably just a tourist.
03:40Happens all the time.
03:40I get why people fall in love with this place.
03:48It's not just pretty.
03:50It feels rushed.
03:52No pressures.
03:54Do you like the sea?
03:55Salty?
03:56No.
03:57No.
03:58Calm.
03:58On the surface.
04:00I can see there's something wild under me.
04:04You will marry Eleanor.
04:08She fits the life you were born with.
04:11I didn't choose this.
04:13You forced it on me.
04:15You don't have to be ready.
04:18Where did your mind go just now?
04:21I'm not as free as I look.
04:22Some people have expectations for me.
04:25Family?
04:26Yes?
04:31People are watching you because of the X-Men.
04:34End this quietly, please, and return to Athens.
04:37I need you here immediately.
04:46Your secret spot?
04:49Only for people I like.
04:50You joining?
04:51You joining?
04:59Wait, seriously?
05:03You're actually insane.
05:10You joining?
05:10You're just watching?
05:12You're just watching.
05:14Enjoying the view!
05:15I didn't want you thinking I stared intentionally.
05:28Maybe I hoped you were.
05:32So, that kiss yesterday.
05:35Just a thanks for the moment.
05:36It felt perfect.
05:36It felt perfect.
05:38Like now.
05:49How is this shirt?
05:51European royalty?
05:53Are all Americans this nosy?
05:55That felt like a while.
05:58We should head back.
06:00It'll get cold soon.
06:01Look who finally remembered me.
06:08Sorry I've been in my A.
06:10It's great here.
06:11And I haven't been scammed yet.
06:13Proud of you.
06:14Also, I met someone.
06:17Of course you did.
06:18We literally bumped into each other.
06:21He caught my camera when I dropped it.
06:22And then offered to show me around.
06:25And for once, I said yes.
06:27Oh no.
06:28I know.
06:29I know.
06:30Who is he?
06:31Maybe someone knows him.
06:33I actually don't even know his last name.
06:36Or much of anything really.
06:41Hi Alex.
06:43You've been hard to find.
06:44It's not now, Marco.
06:46Your father's concerned.
06:47There's been talk about that girl.
06:49Let them talk.
06:50You know how this looks.
06:52Discretion used to matter to you.
06:54Say what you came to say.
06:55This sabbatical?
06:57Is it about Elena?
06:58What do you think?
06:59I think it is.
07:03From her.
07:13That might have been the best night I've had in a while.
07:15Same here.
07:19Thank you for staying.
07:23Are you hungry?
07:24Starving.
07:27You know that's my favorite t-shirt, right?
07:29But now, it's mine.
07:34Do you always keep a spare toothbrush in your guest drawer?
07:37Maybe I like to be prepared.
07:38For tourists.
07:40For possibilities.
07:41You ever say something real, or just things that sound good?
07:46Lunch?
07:48Let's.
07:52You will love this one.
08:01Bordeaux, 2015.
08:02Correct.
08:03May I?
08:04Okay, Shirt Crest.
08:10And now this?
08:12Who are you?
08:12James Bond?
08:13The Greek can't have taste.
08:16Alex?
08:17Elena.
08:18What are you doing here?
08:20Your parents insist that I find you.
08:21They're worried.
08:23There's too much at stake to ignore this.
08:25How do you want to leave me here?
08:32Relax.
08:33I'm not here to start a scene.
08:34Then came what you came to say and go.
08:36Alex, we were always more than just feelings.
08:39There's still a future, if you want it.
08:42I don't.
08:43You act like you've escaped, but you're just on pause.
08:47I don't know about you, but I want a life I chose.
08:49Refusing the past doesn't erase it.
08:52It just means someone else decides for you.
08:54You need to come back to Athens.
09:02The board is moving without you.
09:04I'd end this thing with a tourist.
09:07People have seen you.
09:08It's getting embarrassing.
09:22He was speaking to his ex.
09:24Lynn's father called.
09:26I answered his phone.
09:27Kate, I love you, but you always do this.
09:31You rush in hot first.
09:33Remember Andrew?
09:33This isn't Andrew.
09:35Maybe, but you need to stop guessing.
09:38Ask him.
09:39Really ask him.
09:40Anything you want to tell me, or should I just wait for the next call?
09:55Look, Kate, my father oversteps.
09:57He always has.
09:58This isn't about him.
09:59It's about her, Elena.
10:01We were together since we were kids.
10:04The family's approved, but I moved on.
10:07She just never did.
10:08You weren't engaged?
10:09I never loved her, Kate.
10:14I should have told you.
10:15Just don't ask me anything else today, okay?
10:28Girls like you are summer storms.
10:38But storms pass.
10:39You're nothing special.
10:54Kate.
10:55Is that what they think I am?
10:57A passing storm?
10:58She's just trying to scare you.
10:59She's not wrong.
11:00This, us, it's not built to last.
11:03Then let's change that.
11:04I don't want to be a rebellion, Alex.
11:05You're not.
11:06You're the first thing I've ever chosen for myself.
11:08Then tell her.
11:10Tell her it's over.
11:10It's over.
11:11Has been for a long time.
11:13Good.
11:14She's not going away, is she?
11:28I think he's serious about her.
11:30Well, if she won't leave on her own, we'll help her find the door.
11:35You texted her.
11:53I just suggested she leave early.
11:55For her own good.
11:56You don't get to decide that.
11:57I warned her.
11:59Girls like her never left.
12:01You should thank me for speeding it up.
12:03What do you want, Elena?
12:04I want what I've always had.
12:06Your love.
12:07Get in, Alexandros.
12:17You will lose everything over this.
12:20Your name, your position.
12:22And don't be fooled.
12:24Elena will not go easily.
12:26You've controlled me ever since I could walk.
12:28Not anymore.
12:29You always say that.
12:31But look where you are.
12:38Alex?
12:43You've been quiet since breakfast.
12:45Did my ex offend you?
12:46No.
12:47I just needed a walk.
12:49Is this your version of opening up?
12:51I want to.
12:53But there are some parts of me that are still tied to a life I never chose.
12:57Oh, let me help.
12:59Do you want to stay with me tonight?
13:01If you want me to.
13:04I'm not good at this.
13:05The normal, everyday part.
13:07Try me.
13:09Some nights I wish I could burn it all down.
13:12The name, the expectations.
13:14What stops you?
13:15People like my mother.
13:18People who smile while pulling the strings.
13:20I'm cutting loose.
13:28You better move fast, Alex.
13:30She's already pulling strings.
13:32Everything okay?
13:44You tell me.
13:45Where'd you find this?
13:47It was by the door.
13:48No name.
13:49Just waiting.
13:50She's always known how to send a message.
13:52You said you wanted to burn it all down.
13:54Then do it.
13:55Or mean it.
13:56Look, Kate.
13:57I don't care about their money.
13:59Or their legacy.
13:59None of that really matters to me.
14:02But you really do.
14:03I'm falling for you, Kate.
14:04Fast.
14:05And maybe even recklessly.
14:07But it's all very real.
14:08Then stop holding back.
14:09She's pretty.
14:15Interesting.
14:31Maybe someone from her past could be useful.
14:34She's a friend of the night.
14:43Kind of.
14:45The coffee always helps.
14:48So.
14:50This version of you.
14:51Coffee.
14:52Half naked.
14:54Charming.
14:55Is that sticking around?
14:56I don't know.
14:57What if it is?
14:58I meant what I said last night.
14:59I told Lena to meet her at the cafe by the marina.
15:02She'll think you kidnapped me.
15:03I want to be the worst rumor.
15:09Helena Vassilio, Georgiopoulos' family's former fiancee,
15:12is rumored to be determined to secure her place in their financial future
15:16despite their recent broken engagement.
15:18This wasn't some ex.
15:28This was the plan.
15:31Let's see what else you forgot to mention.
15:39I found this while I was waiting for you.
15:41I was just flipping through and...
15:46Bam.
15:47That's Elena.
15:48And that's Alex's mother.
15:50Sophia Georgiopoulos.
15:51You know her?
15:52Everyone does.
15:54The Georgiopoulos family is Greece's biggest shipping dynasty.
15:57They run the country pretty much.
15:58That's who I just had breakfast with?
16:00You've been sleeping next to the air.
16:02And no one warned me?
16:03You didn't ask for his name, Kate.
16:05Now you know why he didn't offer it.
16:07This whole time.
16:08He never gave me the full store.
16:09So that's the girl.
16:18Let's see what she's made of.
16:25That's where I learned how to play guitar.
16:27Let me guess.
16:28Your family hit it after 10 minutes?
16:31Five.
16:32I was relentless.
16:33And now?
16:34Now I only play for carefully selected audiences.
16:37My compliment doesn't buy me a private concert.
16:47Something wrong?
16:49No, no.
16:50Just have it.
16:53It's unreal.
16:55Like the whole world slows down just enough to breathe.
16:59That's why people never leave.
17:00Is that why you're still here?
17:02Something like that.
17:03You know him?
17:11No.
17:12Let's go the other way.
17:13Why?
17:14You said it go.
17:15You've been dodging me since the first day.
17:17What is it I'm not supposed to see?
17:19What aren't you telling me?
17:20That's them, isn't it?
17:38You've been hiding something since the day we met.
17:40I'm done guessing.
17:41Who were they?
17:41My parents.
17:42And Elena?
17:43She was sent by them.
17:46My father runs Georgiopolis shipping.
17:48I was supposed to take over.
17:50Elena was part of the plan.
17:52So she's not just your ex.
17:53She's your legacy.
17:54She's my past.
17:55And what am I?
17:56Everything with you is real.
17:58Except your name, your past, and that your family could crush me without even blinking.
18:02I was just trying to protect you.
18:03Too late.
18:04You should have told me from the beginning.
18:18Can I come in?
18:20I didn't want you to find out like that.
18:21You had a hundred chances to tell me, but you didn't.
18:24I didn't lie to protect myself.
18:26I lied to protect this.
18:27And now?
18:28Now I want to try for real.
18:29Have lunch with me.
18:31With her.
18:32Your mother?
18:33Yes.
18:34We can call it character building.
18:43The weather's been kind this week.
18:46Mykonos is really stunning.
18:48So, Kate, what brought you here?
18:50I'm a photographer.
18:51I freelance.
18:53I see.
18:55Alex has always liked foreign things.
18:57Hey.
18:58I meant art and languages.
19:01He's an excellent translator.
19:02And surprisingly, a great cook.
19:05Cooking is a skill for people with time.
19:08You're not going to be warm.
19:09At least be respectful.
19:10Respect is earned.
19:12And timing is everything.
19:15You will learn that eventually.
19:18And now?
19:20Excuse me.
19:21I know that look.
19:31Were you expecting me to be happy?
19:33I'm sorry.
19:34She's a particular taste.
19:36She looked at me like I was a waiter.
19:38I know.
19:38I know.
19:39I'm sorry.
19:40But at least we had a great dessert after all that.
19:42Stay again tonight?
19:47If you stop apologizing.
19:50Probably just the neighbor again.
19:57Good evening.
19:59Apologies for the drop-in, but business doesn't wait.
20:02Alana.
20:02Kate.
20:03Still here, I see.
20:05Why are you here?
20:06Just finalizing a few things.
20:09Some of us still take matters seriously.
20:13Good luck.
20:14You'll need it.
20:21Whoa.
20:22These are shared transfer papers.
20:25She owns a piece of your family's company?
20:28She just declared war.
20:30This is real.
20:35She tied herself back in.
20:36She's a power junkie.
20:37Losing me through her off balance.
20:39She's not done.
20:40No.
20:41But neither are we.
20:42You're the reason I want out.
20:44She doesn't get to write the ending.
20:48Didn't mean to wake you.
20:50What time is it?
20:52Early.
20:53I have to take care of something.
20:55Just a few days.
20:57Are you really leaving?
20:58I have to.
20:59But I'll be back.
21:02Okay.
21:03Just come back home, please.
21:08Don't forget how this feels, okay?
21:20Looks like I'm not waiting after all.
21:29You came.
21:30I knew you would.
21:31Don't flatter yourself.
21:32I came for answers.
21:33You came.
21:35That's what matters.
21:36Skip the performance.
21:37What do you want?
21:38What I've always wanted.
21:39For you to grow up and take what's yours.
21:42Be part of the family.
21:43What family?
21:44The kind that sends assistance instead of invitations?
21:47You weren't exactly answering our calls.
21:50Now, if you want to act like a man, here's your crown.
21:55What is it?
21:57An official succession plan.
22:00We all signed it this morning.
22:02Well, you forged my name to trap me.
22:05And you just gave me a way out.
22:06We've done this before, Alexandros.
22:12Don't act like it's something sacred.
22:14And Elena, she's still part of the plan.
22:17Our name brings confidence.
22:21Investors see stability.
22:23I'm not building a life with someone I've already left in the past.
22:27Because this tie, if you cut it, will cost the whole family.
22:34Then you built the wrong family.
22:45He's inside.
22:48I thought you'd want to hear it all from him.
22:56He said you asked for me?
22:59Of course he did.
23:00You said you came to walk away.
23:02But this place will always own you.
23:05And now it's my turn.
23:08Let's see what it will take for you to walk away.
23:11This is for you.
23:22What exactly am I being paid for?
23:24To forget us all and to forget Greece.
23:27You can't buy me off like you did with Elena.
23:30Your son is in your property, neither am I.
23:32He was supposed to lead our company, not run off with a tourist.
23:36What's going on?
23:36Your mother just tried to send me back to America.
23:42If she truly cared, she would leave on her own.
23:45Enough.
23:47This ends here.
23:48If she stays or if she goes, that's her choice, not yours.
23:52So that went well.
24:00I'm sorry.
24:02She'll stop.
24:02She won't.
24:09But I'm not leaving.
24:23Enjoy your fairy tale, Kate.
24:32What now?
24:38This was just dropped off at the estate.
24:42Just your father and the board.
24:52She's twisting everything, making it seem like I'm not in my right mind.
24:55It's already been forwarded to legal.
24:57She's playing hardball now.
24:59And what?
24:59You're just the messenger.
25:01You asked for honesty.
25:02I'm just delivering it.
25:03She lies, slanders, and yet she still ends up protected.
25:06She's not protected.
25:08She's strategic.
25:09How unhinged is she?
25:17The timing makes this impossible.
25:19She's bluffing and desperate.
25:24I passed Mark on the whole day.
25:26What happened?
25:27A letter she sent to my father and the board.
25:30And she slipped this in.
25:32Like it proves anything.
25:34Wait.
25:34She's pregnant?
25:35That's what she wants people to think.
25:37But I know it's not mine.
25:38The math doesn't add up.
25:40And she sends that instead of saying a word?
25:42That's the point.
25:43She doesn't want to talk.
25:44She wanted leverage.
25:45Then what now?
25:47Just give me time.
25:48I'll prove it.
25:49And then I'm done.
25:57It's quiet out here.
25:59Like the rest of the world just doesn't exist.
26:01That's why I brought you here.
26:04When this is over, I'm done.
26:06For good.
26:08No more strings.
26:09No more secrets.
26:10And when this ends, if you still want me, I'm yours.
26:30She really did it.
26:31You always said you wanted a family.
26:34Well, here we are.
26:37And what exactly were you going to tell me?
26:39I just did.
26:40You had two months.
26:42Why now?
26:43Timing is everything.
26:44You know it.
26:45Every part of this is calculated.
26:47You're using a child as a pawn.
26:48I'm not.
26:49But you think my timing changes what it is?
26:51Yes, it does.
26:53You walk away from me now.
26:54You are not walking away clean.
26:56I don't know who you are anymore.
26:58I'm the mother of your child.
27:01Then you better be for their sake.
27:17This is never about the baby.
27:19It's always about the name.
27:24I didn't follow you to fix things.
27:31I just need you to know I'm not choosing her.
27:33I know you're not.
27:34But you're still caught between worlds, Alex.
27:37You didn't build the trap, but you're still sitting in it.
27:39And I'm trying to tear it down every day.
27:41Then do it.
27:42But stop acting like I'm the reason you might or might not.
27:45I'm just afraid if I don't act fast enough, she'll trap me in it.
27:48And if she already has?
27:49Yes.
27:54You didn't think she was going to go public?
27:58No, not like this.
28:00Then figure it out.
28:02But please do it first.
28:06Her past.
28:08Dig into it.
28:09Find someone who's still got a hold on her.
28:13Let's see how committed she is.
28:15Wait, what?
28:22I just got an email from a gallery in Paris.
28:25They want to feature me.
28:26That's amazing.
28:27Had you applied?
28:28No.
28:29Apparently someone saw my making those photos online.
28:33Galerie Leclerc.
28:36Okay, they're legit.
28:38But scroll to the bottom.
28:39Look at the sponsor list.
28:41Georgiopoulos Cultural Foundation.
28:48Could be a coincidence or not.
28:53Might be worth a call.
28:54Ask how they found you.
28:55God, I'm so tired of all this.
28:58Did you really think I wasn't going to find out?
29:12You're welcome.
29:13This isn't help.
29:14It's manipulation.
29:16I gave her something she was already looking for.
29:18You just can't stand not pulling the strings.
29:20I gave her something you couldn't.
29:23She doesn't need your bribe.
29:24You're not afraid of losing her.
29:25You're afraid she never needed you in the first place.
29:28If she walks now, it's because of you.
29:30And I won't forget that.
29:39Hey.
29:40What's up?
29:41Hey.
29:42Didn't expect to see you here.
29:44Wanted to catch up.
29:45Yeah.
29:46Been thinking the same.
29:48Things have been off lately.
29:51Tell me about it.
29:52If I were to ask you something straight,
29:54would you be honest?
29:55Depends on what the questions are.
29:57You've always been loyal to my father,
29:59but you're not blind.
30:01So tell me something I don't know.
30:02Because something about this whole Lena thing
30:04doesn't add up.
30:07Alex, I can't, uh,
30:11really talk about it right now.
30:15Not while she's here.
30:17She's here?
30:17Then can you meet me tomorrow?
30:21Somewhere she doesn't know.
30:22You pick the place.
30:25Okay?
30:25Okay.
30:25If he finds out,
30:38he won't be the only one who goes down.
30:47Where are you, Marco?
30:48Coward little man.
30:58You were never loyal.
30:59Just scared.
31:07Well, well.
31:08Andrew?
31:09Still ignoring my text, huh?
31:11What are you doing here?
31:12I told you I'd cross an ocean for you.
31:15No more mixed signals.
31:16I'm here for us.
31:18Are you stalking me?
31:19People who care
31:20make it their business to know.
31:25Who the hell is he?
31:28And why is he touching her?
31:30He was about to kiss you yesterday.
31:34What kiss are you talking about?
31:36I didn't even know he was here.
31:38You have to believe that.
31:38I was pushing him away.
31:40But he is here, Kate.
31:41And you knew exactly where to find you.
31:42That doesn't just happen.
31:43You think I planned this?
31:44I don't know what to think anymore.
31:59What is this?
32:00Where did you get that?
32:02It came with your flowers.
32:04Alex, I didn't send it, I swear.
32:05I don't even remember that photo.
32:07Well, someone does.
32:09Maybe this is all a mistake from the beginning.
32:19One crack.
32:20That's all it takes.
32:21Your goblin's hair caught cheating
32:29while ex-fiancé expecting you.
32:32They don't even pretend to ask if it's true.
32:34Is your name in there too?
32:35I should have seen it coming.
32:37They want me gone.
32:38Then don't leave.
32:40Let them choke in their own mess.
32:41That's it.
32:49Let's keep it civil, shall we?
32:52The doctors told me I have to take it easy.
32:54Stress at my age isn't exactly harmless.
32:58Then stop fueling it.
32:59You and Mom both.
33:00The board wants clarity.
33:03I think I've lost control.
33:07So I'm considering naming a successor.
33:10You're asking me to choose between the life I want
33:12and the life you've chosen.
33:14That's not clarity.
33:15That's blackmail.
33:16I'm asking you to think.
33:19Because once this is done, there's no undoing it.
33:23And don't forget, Elena has been loyal to us.
33:27Why would you say that?
33:29Because you're not the only candidate.
33:33Especially when she's carrying the next generation of our family.
33:43You haven't looked at me since we got back to Athens.
33:46I'm trying to fix this and clear our names.
33:48Maybe the easiest fix is still for me to go.
33:50Kate, please don't say that.
33:52The only reason any of this is happening is because of Elena.
33:54Then stop letting her win.
33:56Do you really think I believe she's pregnant?
33:58What if it's staged?
33:59Or someone else's baby?
34:01Maybe.
34:02But she's still using every second to twist the truth.
34:06You need to see this.
34:08Now.
34:08What is it?
34:08I passed the florist in black and someone dropped this.
34:11I grabbed it before they could.
34:16Your mom sent it.
34:19She wanted you to think I lied.
34:21Tell me again this wasn't planned.
34:24Elena's the reason my mother's acting like this.
34:27She wants you gone.
34:28She's using everyone to do it.
34:30Then let's make sure she's the one who disappears.
34:34They tried to break us.
34:36And if I hadn't opened that envelope, maybe they would have.
34:38Whatever Elena started, all ended.
34:41We leave tomorrow.
34:43Let's go back to Mykonos.
34:44Just us.
34:44Just us.
34:44Let's go back to Mykonos.
35:11Your family tried to buy me off.
35:24Dig into my past like I'm some threat to your future.
35:28They're afraid of you, because you don't want anything from them.
35:31That makes you dangerous.
35:33And I'm done protecting their fears.
35:35Maybe it's time we hit back with our own story.
35:37On our terms.
35:38You really think we can win against them?
35:40Only if we stop playing nice.
35:53Are you coming to the house?
35:55You should have called first.
35:56I figured surprises were your thing.
35:58This isn't how civilized people handle conflict.
36:03Neither is hiring investigators or sending bribes and envelopes, but here we are.
36:06If you think you're intimidating me...
36:09I'm not here to scare you, just to warn you.
36:12A threat.
36:13A fact.
36:14You tried to ruin my relationship, you failed.
36:17Keep pushing, and the next thing you'll lose won't be a schemer, will be your son.
36:20You're very bold, Miss Miller.
36:22That's the polite way to say you underestimated me.
36:25No records, no scandal, just some love letters.
36:40I won't need your services anymore.
36:42Oh, well, sooner or later, Eleanor will sort something out.
36:55I assumed I would see you eventually.
37:04Because of theatrics.
37:06Why'd you send the flowers?
37:07I didn't send flowers.
37:09I sent a warning.
37:10You used Kate's pass as a weapon.
37:12You really want her gone that badly?
37:14Can't you just see how incompatible she is in our world?
37:18And what about Elena?
37:19You really think she belongs?
37:21What if her baby isn't mine?
37:23Then don't say it out loud, unless you are really sure.
37:30Paternity test?
37:32You really think she'd fake something like this?
37:34Yes, I do.
37:36Be careful, Alex.
37:37Accusing her means accusing the whole family for trusting her.
37:41Do it quietly, and don't bring shame on the family,
37:49unless you're sure she erected you.
37:56She picked the battlefield.
37:58Now I have to fight on her terms.
38:01Now we see how far she's really willing to go.
38:11Hey, we need to talk.
38:14I need the truth.
38:17Hey, Alex.
38:18You're putting me in an impossible situation.
38:20No, Elena has.
38:21Look, Alex, after you left, she was a wreck.
38:25She started calling, dropping by.
38:28And one night she kissed me, and I didn't stop it.
38:32I thought it would blow over, but it didn't.
38:34And when she said she was pregnant, did you do the math?
38:37Look, I don't know if I'm the father.
38:39I know there may be a chance,
38:41but I know I should have told you sooner.
38:44Lisa didn't lie to my face.
38:54He's treating me like a liar.
38:56He wants a paternity test.
39:00You'll let him humiliate me like that?
39:02After everything I've done for this family?
39:04You need to rest, Elena.
39:06The stress isn't good for you.
39:09I guess that test just became pointless.
39:21There's no coming back from this, even for her.
39:23We've reviewed everything.
39:28Your messages, the clinical records you never disclosed.
39:32You went through my private medical files.
39:34You dragged our name into the press.
39:37And just to protect your position, not the family.
39:40Marco has been fired.
39:42You're leaving the company effective immediately.
39:45You can't be serious.
39:46We're done being embarrassed.
39:48Please leave.
39:48I'm glad she chose to leave the country in the end.
39:58Maybe she was never meant for this.
40:02Then who is?
40:06Leo?
40:09Leo?
40:09He's stable for now.
40:20But we need to keep him under observation.
40:27You care about him?
40:29Of course I do.
40:30Then understand this.
40:32We've all made choices we later may be regretted.
40:36But no one in this family has acted with malice.
40:39And yet it cost you almost everything.
40:41Then be better than we are.
40:43That's the plan.
40:44They always said succession would be clear.
41:04But he didn't say if Alex wants it.
41:06It doesn't matter what he wants anymore.
41:08The company needs a future.
41:11And this can't fall into the wrong hands.
41:14It has to be Alex.
41:16There is no one else.
41:26Mom, you said something in that meeting about the company.
41:29I said what your father should have said years ago.
41:31Do you really think it's the right time?
41:33No one is ever ready.
41:35But you've done what most people wouldn't dare.
41:37You stood up for your life.
41:39I didn't do any of it alone.
41:41I know.
41:42You made him stronger.
41:44Thank you for staying.
41:45We made each other stronger.
41:47And you didn't just stay.
41:48You fought.
41:49He's worth it.
41:50I spent my life guarding our family status.
41:53But you two are building something real.
41:56Then help us protect it.
41:58He's awake.
41:59And he asks for you.
42:01I can't run the company anymore, Alex.
42:14It's your turn to lead.
42:16I never wanted the crown.
42:18Nobody ever does.
42:20Not if they're decent.
42:22Or smart like you.
42:23I respect what you built.
42:25I'll protect it.
42:26But only on my terms.
42:27I love Kate.
42:29She's part of my future.
42:31And I see that now.
42:32If I do this, it won't be to preserve the past.
42:36It'll be to build something better.
42:38Then build it.
42:40But don't lose yourself in the process.
42:44Your life belongs to you now, Alex.
42:46So, what did you decide?
42:57I said yes.
43:00But I told him this time, I'm not choosing between love and family.
43:04Just make sure they know that.
43:06And make sure they mean it.
43:07Your father's a gender from the last six months.
43:19I'll take it from here.
43:25Kate, I'm sorry.
43:27Give me an hour.
43:28And I'll call you back, okay?
43:30It's okay.
43:31I understand.
43:32I meant it when I said I wouldn't let them get between us.
43:35And I think this is company.
43:36And I'm not asking you to choose.
43:37I'm asking you to show up.
43:45What exactly am I being paid for?
43:47To forget us all and to forget Greece.
43:51Maybe I was just the exception until the rules started applying again.
43:59Six months in Paris.
44:01It's the life I wanted before any of this.
44:02Funny how the thing I wanted the most still wants me back.
44:10This time, I need to choose myself.
44:13You know, we could have stayed in Athens longer.
44:32It didn't feel right.
44:33I wanted us to say goodbye to this place, too.
44:36You got the offer.
44:37Didn't you?
44:38Six months in Paris.
44:39Alex, you're stepping into your world.
44:41I need to figure out what to do with mine.
44:43We'll make it work.
44:44I want us to, Alex.
44:46But I can't keep putting my life on pause.
44:48And I'm not asking you to.
44:51Just asking you to find a way together.
44:57Are you sure you don't want me to drive you?
44:59It's better if I go alone.
45:00Even if we're not together every day for a while,
45:04you're still the person I want to build the rest of my life with.
45:12I know we're strong.
45:13I just hope we don't forget how to come back.
45:15I know we're still the person I want to do with.
45:33Hey.
45:34How's Paris treating you today?
45:35Busy.
45:37Beautiful.
45:39They want to feature my work in an opening preview.
45:42That's huge, Kate.
45:43It feels like a dream.
45:44But it still feels better when I hear your voice.
45:48I miss you.
45:49I booked a flight for Friday.
45:51And again next week.
45:52I'm not going to let distance come between us.
45:54You're flying out here?
45:56Every weekend I can.
45:58I'm not good at long distance,
45:59but I'll do everything I can to be there.
46:02You making the effort?
46:03That's what matters to me.
46:10Hey, Mom, what's up?
46:11Alex, you need to come to the hospital now.
46:14It's your father.
46:26Was the funeral how you would have wanted?
46:30He hated long speeches.
46:32I kept it short.
46:33Just like he did with his praise.
46:36Now his name's on the marble wall,
46:38and I'm expected to fill the space he left behind.
46:41He always trusted you,
46:43even when he didn't say it.
46:45I'll do everything I can to honor his legacy.
46:47But I'm not him,
46:48and I hope people would stop expecting me to be.
46:51You don't have to do it his way.
46:54You just have to lead, like yourself.
46:56If they still think I'm his weakness,
47:17they've clearly underestimated both of us.
47:20You push this through without consensus.
47:26No, I push this through
47:27because it's delivering 50% growth month over month.
47:31New markets, new partnerships.
47:33That's how we move ahead.
47:34Leo wouldn't have.
47:36My father is in here,
47:37and I'm not here to imitate him.
47:39We build upon my father's legacy,
47:41but the world is changing.
47:42Either we keep up or get replaced.
47:44You just closed the biggest deal in years.
47:48Why do you look so lost?
47:50Kate should have been here.
47:52Alex, I spent my entire life guarding your name.
47:55But after your father,
47:57I see it means nothing without love.
48:00I don't want to lose her, Mom.
48:02Then give her more than a place in your heart.
48:05Let's help her build something here.
48:07Something that's truly hers.
48:14The space looks beautiful.
48:23I still can't believe this is really happening.
48:26Well, the space is all yours for however long you want.
48:29You can stay in Athens if you want.
48:32That's generous and a lot.
48:34But I'd be lying if I said it didn't feel right.
48:37Well, you don't have to decide now.
48:39But I see how steady you make him feel,
48:42and he needs that.
48:43And maybe I need a place
48:45that I can grow and still be with him.
48:48Maybe this is it.
48:50Let's make this quick.
48:52We need to leave in 20 minutes
48:53to get to Kate's gallery opening.
48:54We've got bigger problems.
48:55Eleanor's contracts are a mess,
48:57and the press is circling.
48:58If we don't get ahead of it,
48:59this will land on your desk.
49:01I gave my word.
49:02Then consider what your absence here, then,
49:04says about your priorities.
49:11Then let's fix it.
49:13You said you'd come.
49:27I looked for you all day.
49:29I know.
49:29I'm sorry.
49:29The board dropped a mess in my lap,
49:31and missing this,
49:33it's the last time I make that mistake.
49:34This isn't about this.
49:35It's about you showing me I'm not alone here.
49:37Kate, you're not alone.
49:38Not now.
49:39Not ever.
49:42Will you marry me, Kate?
49:44Yes.
49:46Yes.
49:53Kate, are you okay?
49:54Yes, it's just a wave of something.
49:56I need to sit down.
49:59Okay.
50:08Really taking that old mug with you?
50:10It's the one I use every morning here.
50:12It kind of feels like it holds more than coffee now.
50:15Are you okay?
50:16You seem very skeptical.
50:17I'm just tired.
50:19Trying not to think too much.
50:21Maybe try thinking out loud with me.
50:23Maybe later.
50:24Okay?
50:24Okay.
50:28Okay.
50:29Bye.
50:43Bye.
50:47Bye.
50:49Kate.
51:07Oh, Brendan.
51:11Are you okay?
51:15I don't know.
51:19I'm just scared of what this might mean for us, for everything.
51:23Hey, it means we start something new, together.
51:28I keep thinking of everything we've been through.
51:31All the noise, the pressure.
51:33What if it all starts again?
51:35Then we shut it out.
51:37We don't need to prove anything to anyone anymore.
51:41You really think we can start a family without letting all the old stuff get in the way?
51:45We won't follow their rules.
51:47We'll make our own.
51:49No matter what happens now, you're not doing this alone.
51:54This is really happening.
52:08Finally.
52:09No chaos, no cameras, no George Ropolis drama.
52:12Just us, Lena, and the sea.
52:15And a few nosy neighbors, maybe.
52:16Exactly.
52:18The wedding I never knew I wanted.
52:22You two survived secrets, scandals, and at least three people who tried to sabotage this.
52:29So let's keep the drama and get to the good part.
52:32Also, I'm only legally ordained because of a dare and too much wine.
52:37That sounds about right.
52:40If either of you objects, blink twice now so I can run.
52:44Not blinking.
52:45Great.
52:45Then by the power of us and me, by the internet and questionable life choices, I now pronounce you very brave.
52:55Or possibly just in love.
52:57I choose you every day, no matter where the story takes us.
53:03So let's write it again.
53:04Do you think they'll believe we really do this?
53:18They'll see it in everything we build next.
53:24But I'd be lying if I said it didn't feel right.
