00:00:00We had boyfriends? Interesting.
00:00:11I can't believe we did that.
00:00:14Mia, will you marry me?
00:00:17Yes! Oh my god!
00:00:22I can sing to you.
00:00:24Perhaps this will happen to a member?
00:00:34I've got as much.
00:00:36It's me.
00:00:38Your beloved mother?
00:00:40She would never find out.
00:00:45Now that's what we're talking about, James.
00:00:54Anyone here?
00:01:10What do you want from me?
00:01:12What do you want from me?
00:01:25It's time to tell the truth, Richard. Don't you think?
00:01:34Please, put the gun down.
00:01:38You don't want to end up like this.
00:01:41Mia is the only one in love.
00:02:07You don't want to end up like this.
00:02:12Mack Allen.
00:02:13Neat.
00:02:14Okay.
00:02:17Marriage.
00:02:19Suffocating.
00:02:23Tell me about it.
00:02:27Sounds like you've got something you want to say.
00:02:32Family pressures, right?
00:02:33Want to talk?
00:02:43My family have been on my case for years.
00:02:46It's like they've already chosen my future spouse.
00:02:53My family wants to plan my entire life.
00:02:56My family wants to plan my entire life.
00:03:02I'm James.
00:03:04James Turner, by the way.
00:03:08I'm Mia.
00:03:09Pleasure to meet you.
00:03:14It's our endless battle.
00:03:20It's my new comrade.
00:03:26James, right?
00:03:40Fancy seeing you here again.
00:03:42Mia.
00:03:43Must have a fade.
00:03:45Or you just come here a little too often.
00:03:50Scotch. Neat.
00:03:51Got it.
00:03:55How are things going on your end?
00:03:58My mom calls me every single day to see if I'm bringing someone home for Thanksgiving dinner.
00:04:06And what was your response?
00:04:11I said yes just to stop her calls, but I don't think there's anyone.
00:04:15You?
00:04:19My parents are obsessed with my kids.
00:04:22Even though I'll still see them.
00:04:24Splash please.
00:04:35Here, to our endless battle.
00:04:37Mia, I've been thinking.
00:04:38Why do we help each other out here?
00:04:47What do you mean?
00:04:48I'm not.
00:04:50No.
00:04:51No.
00:04:52No.
00:04:54No.
00:04:55No.
00:04:57No.
00:04:59No.
00:05:01No.
00:05:03No.
00:05:05No.
00:05:06What do you mean?
00:05:08Maybe we can be the plus one for each other, so our families will stop pushing us.
00:05:15Quick boyfriend? Interesting?
00:05:19Only once. And we can be free for a long time.
00:05:24It's not what I usually do, but maybe it's exactly what I need right now.
00:05:32At least night it just keeps getting more interesting.
00:05:35Sounds like the craziest night I've ever had.
00:05:39Not yet. Wait till Thanksgiving.
00:05:42Okay, boyfriend. Why don't you introduce yourself more together?
00:05:48Well, I own a real estate company. We work with many partners on their projects.
00:05:55You sure look like a boss. The scotch gives it away.
00:06:00Alright, enough about it. Tell me something about yourself.
00:06:04Well, I'm an artist and a gallery owner. Not to show off, but you've probably seen a lot of my work around Manhattan already.
00:06:15Wait, are you Mia Davis? That Mia Davis?
00:06:20In the flesh, darling.
00:06:22I understand the emergence, but this is not how negotiation works.
00:06:33I need this to be done in three days. Our investors are not going to wait for us.
00:06:39Anderson, I assure you we are doing everything we can.
00:06:44I trust you because you are the best I've got. We won't let you down.
00:06:51We're good to get on. We'll do it in three days.
00:07:01We'll be here for you.
00:07:03What are you doing?
00:07:04Hey there.
00:07:24Mia, what a pleasant surprise.
00:07:26How did you have time to call me today?
00:07:29Is this a bad time?
00:07:30You sound like you've had a rough day.
00:07:34It was one of those days.
00:07:36Well, sounds like you could use a break.
00:07:40How about a drink to unwind later?
00:07:43Let me check.
00:07:47Yeah, I can really use that.
00:07:49I'll meet you at the same bar.
00:07:50Knowing my mom, she'll definitely want you to stay over.
00:08:05So we'll probably spend three days in one bedroom.
00:08:10After that, we'll be free to go back to our regular lives.
00:08:14Sounds like a plan.
00:08:15Here we go, James.
00:08:27Remember, we're a couple deeply in love.
00:08:31Got it.
00:08:38Mom, I'm home.
00:08:40Oh, Mia!
00:08:44It's been so long.
00:08:46Mom, this is James, my boyfriend.
00:08:50Pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Davis.
00:08:52Mia's told me so much you've broken.
00:08:54Please, call me Maria.
00:08:57Common name.
00:08:58Help yourself with some cookies.
00:09:00Before I finish dressing with turkey.
00:09:06So far, so good.
00:09:07Let's keep it up.
00:09:16You know, I'm actually enjoying this day.
00:09:20Me too.
00:09:21I feel like we're a real couple.
00:09:26So, you two.
00:09:29Tell me how you met.
00:09:32Of course.
00:09:33It was a charming little cafe on the 3rd Avenue.
00:09:38You know, we're sitting alone, reading a chat with each other.
00:09:42You know, we're really striking out the conversation.
00:09:46Oh, how I met you.
00:09:50I'm so happy you guys met each other.
00:09:54It's been too long for me to walk from somewhere.
00:09:57So deep.
00:09:58It's been too long for me to see what he wrote.
00:10:00Oh, my God.
00:10:01Oh, my God.
00:10:01Oh, my God.
00:10:03Oh, my God.
00:10:03Oh, my God.
00:10:04Oh, my God.
00:10:05Oh, my God.
00:10:22Your mom's here.
00:10:24What do we do?
00:10:26Uh, quick, come in here.
00:10:34Okay.
00:10:36Come in.
00:10:38Good morning, lovebirds.
00:10:42I can see you had a lovely night.
00:10:46Stop it, Mom. You're making it awkward.
00:10:50Look at you, all glowing.
00:10:56I'll do everything for my princess.
00:11:00Okay, um, I think the couple needs their alone time now.
00:11:06Okay, okay, just don't take too long.
00:11:08And shouldn't you get back to the city today?
00:11:20I have to say, it was quite a play in your house.
00:11:24It was perfect.
00:11:26They all bought it.
00:11:28Remember how your mom almost caught us in the bedroom.
00:11:32My heart was about to jump out when I heard that knock.
00:11:36But we made it.
00:11:40So, has it been easier for you with your parents since our last visit?
00:11:46They just won't let the topic off you.
00:11:48Same here.
00:11:50But now, my mom won't stop asking me about the wedding.
00:11:54I'm gonna lose my mind.
00:12:00Let's just share the night we have right now.
00:12:04While we still can.
00:12:06You know, James, it's nights like these that really make me appreciate the simple things in life.
00:12:22I feel the same.
00:12:24I know there's beauty in commitment, but...
00:12:28Shouldn't it be our own life choice to make?
00:12:32Exactly.
00:12:34I'd rather cherish these moments with you and my friends.
00:12:38Telling me to rush into a life.
00:12:42Raising kids in a house and giving up all of my freedoms.
00:12:48No thank you.
00:12:54Wait.
00:12:56I have an idea.
00:12:58It might help both of us.
00:13:02I'm all ears.
00:13:04Thank King.
00:13:06What if we turn the tables on our families?
00:13:14Thank King.
00:13:16What if we turn the tables on our families?
00:13:20Please elaborate.
00:13:22Please elaborate.
00:13:24What if we consider a contract marriage?
00:13:30A contract marriage?
00:13:32Yeah.
00:13:34Our families will be satisfied while we actually live a free life.
00:13:38We'll make a legal contract with...
00:13:40Maybe separate bedrooms?
00:13:42Financial terms and so on?
00:13:44Oh.
00:13:46No feelings should be included.
00:13:50This is huge.
00:13:52I need to think about it.
00:13:54I know.
00:13:56It's not something to deal with the person whom you just met.
00:14:00But Pinky Box.
00:14:02The contract will satisfy our parents' expectations.
00:14:08So we can take control of our own lives without their interference.
00:14:12It's the perfect solution to our current dilemma.
00:14:16It's just...
00:14:18Like I said, love and marriage are not supposed to be contractual.
00:14:24They should be based on emotions and connection that grows naturally.
00:14:30Get it, Mia.
00:14:32I do.
00:14:34But sometimes life doesn't follow our script.
00:14:36And we need to adapt to that.
00:14:38Our life won't change a bit.
00:14:40Just more freedom with this contract.
00:14:42But...
00:14:44What about the no emotions term?
00:14:48Should we really cut off our feelings like that?
00:14:52It's necessary.
00:14:54We need to avoid the situation of falling in love with each other.
00:14:58This will make things difficult.
00:15:04You do make a good point.
00:15:06I do want to take control over my own destiny again.
00:15:10But...
00:15:14We need to set boundaries.
00:15:16Conditions.
00:15:18We'll stick with friendship.
00:15:20Contractual partners.
00:15:22Agreed, Mia.
00:15:24I'll write the legal contract.
00:15:26And we should both be clear about all the tasks.
00:15:30Oh, and one more thing, James.
00:15:32We need to keep our personal lives separate from all of this.
00:15:36We both continue to pursue our goals, passions, and relationships.
00:15:42Absolutely.
00:15:44Our contract won't affect any foreign lives.
00:15:48We can make it done tomorrow.
00:15:50While our script will take care of everything.
00:15:52Deal.
00:15:54Deal.
00:16:08I can't believe we're actually doing this.
00:16:12Yeah.
00:16:14We've got that formula.
00:16:16Let's go through this contract together.
00:16:20Okay.
00:16:26Separate bedrooms.
00:16:28Uh...
00:16:30No feelings clause.
00:16:36And...
00:16:38Clear financial terms.
00:16:40Yep.
00:16:42We'll be committed to each other from now on.
00:16:44We'll be committed to each other from now on.
00:16:46I can't believe we did that.
00:17:16So, what's next?
00:17:21We'll tell our parents and make it official.
00:17:25I'll propose to you in your apartment and send pictures to our families.
00:17:30Well, it's a lot to get done just to prove we're getting married.
00:17:36Yes, then we'll plan a wedding so everyone will buy it.
00:17:40It's all part of the plan.
00:17:43I really want to get this out of my head.
00:17:45But can we just get it over with so we can move on with our lives?
00:17:59Did you turn the camera on?
00:18:02Yeah.
00:18:04It's working.
00:18:04Mia, there is something I'm wanting to ask you tonight.
00:18:13Yes?
00:18:18Mia, will you marry me?
00:18:21Oh my God, James.
00:18:22Yes.
00:18:28Oh my God.
00:18:30Oh my God.
00:18:30Oh my God.
00:18:34Oh my God.
00:18:44I can't believe we just did that.
00:18:58It's all part of that.
00:19:00This is our first big show on the stage.
00:19:17We have to make sure that we look like a happy couple in front of everyone.
00:19:21Of course.
00:19:27Not mistake is allowed tonight.
00:19:29Another successful play.
00:19:53It's getting harder for me to tell between all this and the truth.
00:20:02I know, but we have to stay firm.
00:20:08Focus on the bigger picture.
00:20:10Neither of us wants a real marriage right now.
00:20:13And we still have our wedding in two days.
00:20:22Let's get some rest.
00:20:24Good night.
00:20:25Good night.
00:20:26Good night.
00:20:43Mia, are you okay?
00:20:48Please, open up.
00:20:51Talk to me.
00:20:54I can't do this, James.
00:20:58At the wedding, I saw everyone's faces.
00:21:02They were so happy and blessed us with their whole hearts.
00:21:08I feel like I betrayed every one of them.
00:21:13But we are already here.
00:21:17There is no way of going back.
00:21:21I saw their faces.
00:21:23They believed in us.
00:21:26It was all a huge lie.
00:21:29I can't imagine what would happen if they found out the truth.
00:21:34It's not easy for me either.
00:21:37But we have to hang in there.
00:21:40We can't let them down right now.
00:21:42I just wish it didn't have to be like this.
00:22:04I wish that to Mia.
00:22:07But I promise, we can't get through.
00:22:10I promise.
00:22:11James, I have something that I want to say.
00:22:19James, I have something that I want to say.
00:22:39Mia, we agreed.
00:22:46No feelings.
00:22:52I know.
00:22:55But...
00:22:56Call him in second frame.
00:23:11Please enjoy your evening.
00:23:23James, what's this?
00:23:53James?
00:24:21Where are you?
00:24:28Right here, Mia.
00:24:30Is there any candle?
00:24:36James...
00:24:44So, any clue on that note?
00:24:51I'm sorry.
00:25:06Hello?
00:25:09I hope you enjoyed the champagne I sent you.
00:25:12A gift to a celebratory or fake wedding.
00:25:15Someone knows our secret.
00:25:26What should we do?
00:25:30You know, I've been thinking about the date we met.
00:25:45It feels like a lifetime ago.
00:25:48I know, and I'm glad that I met you.
00:25:52You're such a special woman, and I've never met anyone like you.
00:26:07You too.
00:26:08I'm glad I met a real gentleman.
00:26:14Even though it's a dramatic fake wedding, I'm happy to have you here with me.
00:26:29It's not a fairy tale.
00:26:32It's a bloody reality.
00:26:36But I still like it.
00:26:37It's our story.
00:26:43It's our story.
00:26:58It's our story.
00:27:21What's happening?
00:27:28We're stuck.
00:27:29What do we do?
00:27:31I need to be there on time.
00:27:35Let's call the building.
00:27:37They should come and fix this.
00:27:40There's no signal.
00:27:50We could be trapped in here for hours.
00:27:53We won't.
00:27:55Someone will notice the elevator went wrong and come to fix this.
00:28:00We just need to be patient.
00:28:08What's that for?
00:28:09Just to give us some strength.
00:28:12Friends can hug too.
00:28:14Okay.
00:28:27I can't believe this is happening.
00:28:30Well, at least it's a short break from our complex life.
00:28:37You always find a way to be positive, don't you?
00:28:44James, what if people find out about our contract marriage?
00:28:50They'd be so disappointed.
00:28:54We're doing everything we can.
00:28:57We're doing everything we can.
00:28:58So far, we did good.
00:29:00Everyone is happy.
00:29:03I just think about how far we've come.
00:29:07Since the day we met, there was the gala, the proposal, the wedding, and now blackmail?
00:29:17It's like an endless spy game.
00:29:20I know.
00:29:22But we're in this together.
00:29:25We chose this to take control of our life.
00:29:29And now we are tied together by fate.
00:29:32We are one.
00:29:33I suddenly feel so relieved.
00:29:42Maybe it's because I'm not alone anymore.
00:29:47I know.
00:29:48I always rush to my friends after a bad day.
00:29:51And here I am with a dearest friend.
00:29:54And now maybe I can finally get some space from my mom.
00:30:00Now that I'm busy with my new husband.
00:30:02Mine too.
00:30:04My mom called the other day.
00:30:06But when she saw you walk up from the bath, she hung up as soon as she could.
00:30:11But of course, she made fun of us.
00:30:14Or maybe next time I can show up even sexier.
00:30:19And then she can make fun of you some more.
00:30:22I'm sexy now.
00:30:34Maybe we should talk about what just happened.
00:30:42The moment was...
00:30:44I enjoyed it.
00:30:45There is something I never thought I would say.
00:30:48But it's not what we expected.
00:30:52I thought we got into this to avoid marriage.
00:30:55Mia, I have to tell you.
00:30:58I don't want to lie to myself or to you anymore.
00:31:01I care about you more than I should.
00:31:06I don't want to hide my feelings and pretend nothing is there.
00:31:11I'm in love with you.
00:31:20I actually feel the exact same way.
00:31:27I can't stop thinking about you all the time.
00:31:31Although we got into this relationship to avoid affection...
00:31:37I'm glad that fate brought us together.
00:31:41Let's tell everyone the truth.
00:31:43I'm sure they will understand.
00:31:45They may be mad at first, but they will be happy for us in the end.
00:31:50Our families will be shocked when they find out.
00:31:53I know, Mia.
00:31:54But it's time to set things right.
00:31:55It should be our priority right now.
00:31:57James, our parents aside, I'm really worried about that blackmail that we received at the bar.
00:32:07Who would be so interested in our personal matters?
00:32:11Mia, I have no idea.
00:32:12But I hired an investigator.
00:32:13I hope she can bring me some valuable information.
00:32:17I have a feeling someone is watching us from the dark.
00:32:19I have a feeling someone is watching us from the dark.
00:32:23We should have never gotten ourselves into this mess.
00:32:25This contract marriage was a stupid idea in hindsight.
00:32:29bringing us all of these unexpected problems.
00:32:30I chose this to live a better life, Mia.
00:32:33I have a feeling some of whom people have been sent to us to us.
00:32:36It was the reason this happened.
00:32:37Is that one of them being able to die?
00:32:38Mh-mh-mh-mh.
00:32:39We should've never gotten ourselves into this mess.
00:32:47This contract marriage was a stupid idea in hindsight, bringing us all of these unexpected
00:32:53problems.
00:32:54I chose this to live a better life, Smear.
00:33:02And yet, I feel that life is worse under the pretense.
00:33:11We will get ourselves out of this situation.
00:33:15We'll find the right time to tell everyone the truth to our marriage, and we'll for sure
00:33:20catch the person hunting us.
00:33:32Who's there?
00:33:55Anyone here?
00:34:11What do you want from me?

01:07:37yes i got a lead
01:07:39it's been a challenging investigation
01:07:41but i've uncovered some crucial information leads on
01:07:45richard kinsley
01:07:48i'm listening
01:07:50he went to the same college with mia
01:07:52and he developed an obsession over her everything
01:07:57he's been stalking your life collecting information and attempting to get her
01:08:04this is insane how did he get so close to us
01:08:08he used virus illnesses and keep a low profile
01:08:12which made it challenging to track him
01:08:15but we've identified his patterns and his current location
01:08:20either device involving the authorities and getting a restraining order against him
01:08:27thank you samantha i appreciate your dedication

01:08:56it's time to tell the truth richard don't you think
01:09:08who sent you after us

01:16:47You scared the hell out of me.
01:16:50It's okay. I feel better now.
01:16:54I'm sorry to have scared you.
01:16:58I guess tonight's events took a lot out of me.
01:17:05I'm so sorry for everything that has happened.
01:17:10I love you.
01:17:12And I guess...
01:17:15carrying a baby also takes away from my strength.
01:17:22What?
01:17:24What did you just say?
01:17:27Well...
01:17:29I've been having some...
01:17:31fainting incidents recently, so...
01:17:35I went to the hospital by myself, and...
01:17:40it looks like in eight months, you're going to become a dad.
01:17:45What?
01:17:47You are pregnant?
01:17:49Oh my God!
01:17:51I can't believe!
01:17:52I had no idea!
01:17:54You should have told me earlier.
01:17:56I can't believe we are becoming parents.
01:17:58This is the most exciting moment in my life.
01:17:59I knew you would be happy.
01:18:01James, with the baby coming...
01:18:03and the incidents behind us...
01:18:05I think it's time we come clean to our parents.
01:18:08They deserve to know the truth.
01:18:09and we have to tell them they have a grandchild on the way.
01:18:20You're right in here.
01:18:22It's time to be honest with them.
01:18:24They deserve to know the truth, and we have to tell them they have a grandchild on the way.
01:18:32You're right, Mia. It's time to be honest with you.
01:18:43I'm so happy.
01:18:45You know, Mia, I was thinking, I want a girl. She'll have your eyes and my smile.
01:18:52Oh, really? I'm imagining a boy with your intelligence and my sense of beauty.
01:19:01But as long as the little one is healthy, I'm satisfied.
01:19:06Never been more excited about the future.
01:19:09Me too, James. This journey, our journey, it's been a surprise in every sense of the word.
01:19:18Surprise can be a good thing, right? And maybe, just maybe, we'll have the best of both worlds.
01:19:25Breakfast in bed for my beautiful princess.
01:19:35Oh, my God. Are you trying to spoil me?
01:19:40Maybe I am. You deserve it.
01:19:43This looks amazing. I love the nuggets.
01:19:48I believe in us, James.
01:19:52We've gone through a lot of challenges that come out even stronger.
01:19:59Tonight is the last step for us to become a real couple.
01:20:04I'm lucky to have you here by my side, Mia.
01:20:10It doesn't matter how angry they get upon hearing the news.
01:20:15We'll face it together.
01:20:23Mom, we need to tell you something about our marriage.
01:20:27Our marriage started with a light to your family.
01:20:38And it was a business arrangement.
01:20:43But over time, we fell in love with each other.
01:20:49We want to make it real.
01:20:52And we'd like to have your blessing for real this time.
01:20:59Well, your marriage, contract or not, has looked pretty real to me from the very beginning.
01:21:11And I'm glad you guys are brave enough to admit the mistakes.
01:21:16And go on with your real, happy marriage life.
01:21:23Thank you for understanding, Mom.
01:21:28I'll always be there for her.
01:21:31And we have a new member come into the family soon.
