Short filmTranscript
00:00:00When a mysterious billionaire asks you to marry him for a year and give him an heir,
00:00:05what do you say? He offered me $10 million. I needed the money to pay for my little brother's
00:00:11heart surgery. I couldn't say no. So I moved into his mansion and slowly I got to know him.
00:00:19His likes, his dislikes, his smile, those lips. The man behind the six foot five perfect body,
00:00:26the heart he liked to pretend he didn't have. And eventually I started to realize I wanted this
00:00:34baby and the strange little family we'd become. I wanted him. But my year with Gideon Maslow was
00:00:41coming to an end. Was it possible he felt the same way?
00:00:56Why won't you tell me who that woman is?
00:01:26Because I don't want to talk about other women.
00:01:33What does that mean?
00:01:39It means I only want to think about you.
00:01:47My little doll.
00:01:56So you're interested in becoming a surrogate?
00:02:16Well, I can't think of anything more fulfilling than bringing new life into this world.
00:02:21That's beautiful, sweetheart. Did you bring everything I asked for?
00:02:25Oh, yes. Medical records, blood work, it's all there.
00:02:31Everything seems to be in order. You're young, you're healthy. I can already think of several
00:02:37clients who would love you.
00:02:38Oh, that's great. It's a huge relief, honestly.
00:02:41Oh, but honey, wait. Your medical records are missing the details of your previous birth.
00:02:47Previous birth?
00:02:49To be a surrogate, you need to have given birth before. It was in the literature we sent over.
00:02:53No, please.
00:02:55Perhaps you can consider egg donation.
00:02:57That doesn't pay enough.
00:02:58Oh, sweetheart, egg donation is still a beautiful way to help bring new life into the world.
00:03:04Let me get you a pamphlet.
00:03:35Hey, cutie.
00:03:38Hey.
00:03:40Oh, no. Don't get up.
00:03:41It's fine.
00:03:42How are you feeling?
00:03:44Well, I can't live like this much longer.
00:03:46Come on, don't say that.
00:03:47I'm supposed to start college in three months.
00:03:49And instead, I'm here, rotting, on a couch.
00:03:53You just have to take things easy until we...
00:03:55I know, I know.
00:03:56By the way, um, have you heard of someone named Gideon Maslow?
00:04:06Yeah, of course. He's the CEO of Maslow Enterprises.
00:04:10He's a billionaire.
00:04:12Why?
00:04:12I just saw the name somewhere.
00:04:20Who is this?
00:04:23Hi, uh, this is Alice Gardner.
00:04:25The Parkside Surrogacy Agency referred me.
00:04:29Okay.
00:04:30I'm here to help you have a baby.
00:04:32They were supposed to send me a selection of women to choose from.
00:04:36The agency is confident that I'm the best choice.
00:04:39Well, I can't speak about this now.
00:04:41My house tomorrow.
00:04:42I'll send a car.
00:04:45Sure.
00:04:45I'll text you right now.
00:04:46Can I help you?
00:05:16Hi.
00:05:17Yes, I'm here to see Mr. Maslow.
00:05:19I have an appointment.
00:05:20Oh, you must be Miss Gardner.
00:05:22Sorry, I thought you were selling something.
00:05:25What would I be selling?
00:05:27I wasn't sure.
00:05:29Ill-fitting jackets.
00:05:35Alice, I see you met my house manager, Helga.
00:05:44Follow me.
00:05:46Son.
00:05:53What is it?
00:06:00It's a non-disclosure agreement.
00:06:03Guys usually offer to buy me a drink first.
00:06:06Anything that I say in this meeting will not be repeated or else I will unleash a legal firestorm
00:06:15on your ass, the likes of which you couldn't even imagine.
00:06:19Your lawyers are going to need lawyers, and their lawyers are going to need lawyers.
00:06:22Okay, jeez.
00:06:24I get it.
00:06:27Could have just asked me to pinky promise.
00:06:29I take those very seriously.
00:06:31All right, let's get down to business.
00:06:36I need a surrogate of sorts.
00:06:40Of sorts?
00:06:41My proposition is a bit unconventional.
00:06:45I need to hire someone to marry me and give birth to my heir.
00:06:50I'm sorry, what?
00:06:55Oh, you're one of those billionaires, freaky psychopath.
00:07:03Well, the marriage would be a temporary situation.
00:07:06After the birth of my son.
00:07:07Your son?
00:07:08Or whatever.
00:07:09After the birth of my heir.
00:07:11We'll divorce.
00:07:13He'll retain visitation rights.
00:07:15But the marriage has to appear real for at least one year.
00:07:18Why?
00:07:19If I want my heir to eventually take over the company,
00:07:23he has to maintain my family's pristine reputation.
00:07:27See, the community would never accept a bastard.
00:07:30I don't get it.
00:07:32You have money and a nice face and a great body, and you are tall.
00:07:37Like, how tall are you?
00:07:39Why can't you just find a real wife?
00:07:42I don't get out much.
00:07:44I enjoy the solitude.
00:07:46And enjoy paying people to have sex with you?
00:07:49Who said anything about sex?
00:07:51I know how husbands and wives make babies.
00:07:54No, we would take the medical approach.
00:07:56This is a business proposition, not a romantic one.
00:08:01These days, marriages, they're all financial relationships anyways.
00:08:05We would just be settling ours up front.
00:08:10I'm sorry.
00:08:11I can't do this.
00:08:12I agreed to have a child for you, not to have a child with you.
00:08:21Ten million dollars.
00:08:27Ten?
00:08:29Ten million dollars?
00:08:31Ten million dollars.
00:08:34Okay.
00:08:35Okay, I'll do it.
00:08:37Well, you can take your time and think.
00:08:39No, it's all right.
00:08:40Where do I sign?
00:08:41No, slow down, Alice.
00:08:43I still have to think about it.
00:08:45You're the first woman that I interviewed for the position.
00:08:47Well, look no further.
00:08:49You've found me, Mrs. Gideon Maslow.
00:08:53You really like to send all that money, don't you?
00:08:56No, I don't like it.
00:08:58I need it.
00:08:59But my brother has a hole in his heart.
00:09:05He needs surgery, and the longer we wait, the less chance he has at making a full recovery.
00:09:10So why don't you ask your parents for the money?
00:09:14It's not an option.
00:09:17Look, I'll be the best fake wife you've ever had, okay?
00:09:21Please?
00:09:25Please?
00:09:29All right.
00:09:31We'll call it highly motivated.
00:09:33I like that in a business partner.
00:09:36You're hired.
00:09:41I promise you, it's all quite standard.
00:09:44Yes, quite.
00:09:47It says here that I don't get the money until the baby is born.
00:09:49Yes, but I will front the cost of Nico's surgery, and all your day-to-day expenses will be taken care of.
00:09:57I have to live with you?
00:09:59I told you, the relationship has to appear real.
00:10:04Well, then Nico needs to live here, too.
00:10:06My brother can't be alone.
00:10:07All right.
00:10:17Now what?
00:10:18Why aren't you signing?
00:10:20I want you to meet him first.
00:10:21Well, send a car.
00:10:22No, no.
00:10:23I can't have him leave the house.
00:10:25Is he a kid, or is he a dog?
00:10:26He's sick, Gideon.
00:10:29All right, well, I don't leave the estate, so if you want me to meet him, you'll bring him here.
00:10:36Alice has told me a lot about you.
00:10:38You're lucky.
00:10:39She just told me she was dating you.
00:10:42Well, everything that I do has a way of ending up in the press, so I asked her to keep our romance quiet, I hope.
00:10:49Well, I hope you can forgive me.
00:10:51Yeah, I think I can forgive anyone with a house this big.
00:10:54Don't get too excited, your heart.
00:11:03Karen, what are you doing here?
00:11:06Can't drop in to surprise my big brother?
00:11:08No, it's not a good time.
00:11:11I have guests.
00:11:13How was I supposed to know you've never had a guest?
00:11:17That's not true, Alice.
00:11:19This is my very funny brother.
00:11:21I'm Kieran.
00:11:22It's good to meet you.
00:11:23Jenny.
00:11:24Hi.
00:11:26And you are?
00:11:29Oh, I'm his girlfriend.
00:11:31His girlfriend.
00:11:36Oh.
00:11:40So, you two have been dating how long?
00:11:44I don't think it's been so long.
00:11:46Um, I'm pretty sure I mentioned Alice to you.
00:11:51Pretty sure you did.
00:11:53No, I'm pretty sure I have.
00:11:56Hey, how about we take a walk outside, take a walk around the grounds?
00:11:59It's a beautiful day today.
00:12:00But you think that, like, maybe there would be enough.
00:12:08I think everyone buys it.
00:12:10Maybe even two more.
00:12:11Do Karen and Jenny have kids?
00:12:13They've been trying for some years, but, I mean, it's a sensitive topic.
00:12:17It's hard to hear that.
00:12:18Somebody's got to carry on the Maslow name.
00:12:23I'll give him my best shot.
00:12:27Alice?
00:12:28No, I'm good.
00:12:29Nico?
00:12:29Uh, your brother!
00:12:33Nico, no!
00:12:44His pulse is steady.
00:12:47Nico, can you hear me?
00:12:48It's okay.
00:12:49Open your eyes.
00:12:50Breathe.
00:12:51Breathe.
00:12:51Breathe.
00:12:51Oh, my God.
00:13:02I am so sorry.
00:13:04I, I, I, I, I think I just got a little overexcited.
00:13:08You've got nothing to be sorry about.
00:13:09It's fine.
00:13:10I can keep walking.
00:13:11Absolutely not.
00:13:13We're going to the hospital.
00:13:14Aiden, you're going to be okay to drive?
00:13:15I told you he shouldn't have come here.
00:13:20Alice!
00:13:21It's good that he's getting some rest.
00:13:36What did the lab say?
00:13:38His condition is getting worse.
00:13:41We need to take a more aggressive approach with this treatment.
00:13:44He should stay in the hospital until he's strong enough for surgery.
00:13:49You want him to live here full time?
00:13:51We'll make sure that he's very comfortable.
00:13:55And you can visit him whenever you like.
00:13:59Have you been able to figure out a payment plan?
00:14:04I've brokered a deal with the devil.
00:14:07Just have to sign it.
00:14:08I thought I'd never see you again.
00:14:16Do you have a pen?
00:14:25Helga will be overseeing your transition into the house.
00:14:28Welcome to the Maslow Estate.
00:14:30Welcome to the Maslow Estate.
00:14:31Must be exciting.
00:14:34Our bedroom is over there.
00:14:37It's all very nice.
00:14:40I work long hours, so try to keep quiet.
00:14:43I'll be spending most days at the hospital with Nico anyways.
00:14:46Hey, what's in here?
00:14:55Hey, you can have your run of the house.
00:14:58But that room is completely off limits.
00:15:02You understand?
00:15:02I do.
00:15:20Helga, help Alice get situated.
00:15:22I have to make a phone call.
00:15:23Of course, Mr. Maslow.
00:15:24Thanks for all your help.
00:15:28Of course, anything for Gideon.
00:15:32You must do a really great job as house manager.
00:15:34I mean, he never wants to leave this place.
00:15:39Gideon is a very complicated and brilliant man.
00:15:43I'm sure he is.
00:15:45I've stood by him through great joy and great sorrow.
00:15:49That's nice.
00:15:52And sorrowful.
00:15:54Please, feel free to call on me for anything that you need.
00:15:58I'll be nearby.
00:16:00All the time.
00:16:01Keeping an eye on you.
00:16:20I thought you'd be asleep.
00:16:24Restless, I guess.
00:16:28So, how was your first day at the house?
00:16:32I don't think Helga likes me very much.
00:16:36You know, she's been with me for years.
00:16:38She's very loyal.
00:16:39Yeah, she mentioned something about that.
00:16:44You know, I don't know why women become so paranoid.
00:16:47You know, I think you need to get some sleep.
00:16:49Because stress is bad for baby making.
00:16:53Our appointment is tomorrow.
00:16:55Are you going to come with me?
00:16:56I sent my sample to the doctor already.
00:16:59So, he's just going to insert it into you.
00:17:03How romantic.
00:17:03Good.
00:17:08I think.
00:17:11I'm going to point you, too.
00:17:15I'm with me here.
00:17:16I'm with you.
00:17:17I'm here.
00:17:19I'm with you.
00:17:19You know.
00:17:20I'm with you.
00:17:21I'm with you.
00:17:22I'm with you.
00:17:23I'm with you.
00:17:24I'm with you here.
00:17:24I'm, with you.
00:17:25I love you.
00:19:06Miss Cardinal.
00:19:09This room is off limits to guests.
00:19:12I'm not a guest.
00:19:15You heard Mr. Maslow.
00:19:23I've become such a fast reader.
00:19:30I've become such a fast reader these last few weeks.
00:19:36See?
00:19:37Perks of taking it easy.
00:19:38Exactly.
00:19:39Who needs friends when you have your sister's old books?
00:19:43Ha.
00:19:44Funny.
00:19:45Ha.
00:19:46Funny.
00:19:47Really, I'm super proud of how seriously you're taking this recovery.
00:19:48Yeah, anything to get me back to real life faster.
00:19:49I hate to break it to you buddy, but this is a lot more like real life than whatever you're
00:19:50missing over summer break.
00:19:51How is this real life?
00:19:52How is this real life?
00:19:53Having your priorities.
00:19:54I've become such a fast reader these last few weeks.
00:19:55I've become such a fast reader these last few weeks.
00:19:56See?
00:19:57Perks of taking it easy.
00:19:58Exactly.
00:19:59Who needs friends when you have your sister's old books?
00:20:00Ha.
00:20:01Funny.
00:20:02Really, I'm super proud of how seriously you're taking this recovery.
00:20:07Yeah, anything to get me back to real life faster.
00:20:10I hate to break it to you buddy, but this is a lot more like real life than whatever
00:20:15you're missing over summer break.
00:20:18How is this real life?
00:20:20Having your priorities straight.
00:20:22Compromising on joy because it's what you have to do.
00:20:25It doesn't get more real life than that babe.
00:20:28Looking good isn't he?
00:20:31You've done great work.
00:20:33Well, I take tips.
00:20:35I'm a little strapped for cash at the moment.
00:20:38Saving up for a big surgery.
00:20:40Speaking of, we were able to set a date.
00:20:45The nurse will go over everything with you, but we're looking pretty good.
00:20:49Nico's on the up and up.
00:20:50So Helga told me you went snooping.
00:20:51What a tattletale.
00:20:55I gave you access to every other room in the house.
00:20:56You couldn't respect my one wish.
00:20:57Have you ever heard the story of Bluebeard?
00:20:58Obviously not.
00:20:59Okay, well it's a folk tale about a woman who marries an older man named Bluebeard.
00:21:00She moves in with him and he allows her access to every room in the house except for one.
00:21:01Sound familiar?
00:21:02I don't know.
00:21:03I don't know.
00:21:04I don't know.
00:21:05I don't know.
00:21:06So what?
00:21:07So, it turns out he had the corpses of six other wives stuffed in the room.
00:21:08He went snooping.
00:21:09What a tattletale.
00:21:13I gave you access to every other room in the house.
00:21:15You couldn't respect my one wish?
00:21:17Have you ever heard the story of Bluebeard?
00:21:19Obviously not.
00:21:20Okay, well it's a folk tale about a woman who marries an older man named Bluebeard.
00:21:24She moves in with him and he allows her access to every room in the house except for one.
00:21:29Sound familiar?
00:21:30So what?
00:21:31So, it turns out he had the corpses of six other wives stuffed in the room.
00:21:36You think I went through all this just to kill you?
00:21:39There's easier ways of doing that and much more fun ones.
00:21:44Well, when you tell me something is off limits, I'm going to assume the worst.
00:21:48You are so stubborn.
00:21:50You did not disclose that in the contract before we signed it.
00:21:55Well, you're a secretive.
00:21:56You didn't mention that.
00:21:58And I don't think you're really 6'5".
00:22:00No, I'm 6'5".
00:22:02Come on, Gideon.
00:22:03You can trust me.
00:22:05Who is she?
00:22:07The woman in the painting.
00:22:09She's the reason why I won't trust you.
00:22:13Or any other woman for that matter.
00:22:20Oh well, I've faded all these.
00:22:23I can't believe that woman got to.
00:22:25Although there is no magnifique.
00:22:27It could be bad.
00:22:28Everything could be fun.
00:22:29fallen all Willy.
00:22:30luminasey baboon.
00:22:31Happy Earth vibes.
00:22:32And then she talked to me by seeing some other things.
00:22:33Stay tuned on that lady,
00:22:46the Legend of 중요한 aberration.
00:22:48Why won't you tell me who that woman is?
00:22:52Because I don't want to talk about other women.
00:22:58What does that mean?
00:23:03It means I only want to think about you.
00:23:11My little dove.
00:23:17What the...
00:23:47Hey.
00:24:01Hello.
00:24:02Crazy how we live in the same house
00:24:03and I can still go days without seeing you.
00:24:06Big house.
00:24:07Gets lonely.
00:24:09Pancakes?
00:24:11Pancakes.
00:24:12Want some?
00:24:13No, I'm more of a waffle man.
00:24:14You know, there's more surface area for the syrup.
00:24:18Here, try one.
00:24:19It's good.
00:24:20I promise.
00:24:26It's my secret recipe.
00:24:38It's good, right?
00:24:40It's good.
00:24:41It's really good.
00:24:43You're not going to have any?
00:24:44No, I had the craziest craving for them this morning,
00:24:46but now my stomach feels a little weird.
00:24:49Alice.
00:24:51Hmm.
00:24:57You think?
00:24:58Do you have a test?
00:24:58What's it say?
00:25:12Negative.
00:25:14Damn.
00:25:15I really thought it would work.
00:25:17I'll get a better doctor.
00:25:19You know, maybe we need to do an egg retrieval first,
00:25:21create an embryo,
00:25:23and plant it back into you.
00:25:25That could take months.
00:25:26But you signed the contract.
00:25:28You knew you were in this for the long haul.
00:25:30Oh, I know.
00:25:31I'm just bummed that it didn't work.
00:25:35Oh.
00:25:36Yeah.
00:25:38No.
00:25:40Me too.
00:25:40You know,
00:25:53there are other ways I could get pregnant
00:25:56that involves less needles
00:25:58and plastic cups and hospital gowns.
00:26:01Oh, yeah?
00:26:03Birds do it.
00:26:05Bees do it.
00:26:06I mean,
00:26:06why can't we do it?
00:26:13No, Alice,
00:26:14I'm not,
00:26:15I'm not paying you to have sex with me.
00:26:17I know,
00:26:17but you are paying me to have a child with you,
00:26:20and
00:26:20this could really increase our chances.
00:26:22No, Alice,
00:26:23sex,
00:26:24it complicates things.
00:26:26Of course it does,
00:26:26when feelings are involved.
00:26:28But we are two business partners with a goal,
00:26:31and
00:26:31sex could be the solution.
00:26:33aren't you a little bit curious?
00:26:38Yeah,
00:26:38I'm,
00:26:39I'm curious.
00:26:41I know you don't trust women,
00:26:42or whatever,
00:26:43but
00:26:43that doesn't mean you shouldn't have any pleasure.
00:26:49And you must find me a little attractive.
00:26:51I mean,
00:26:52you want your heir to have half of my genes.
00:26:55You sure that's what you really want to do?
00:26:59I'm sure.
00:26:59There's just one thing you should know.
00:27:07Yeah?
00:27:08What is it?
00:27:10I'm a virgin.
00:27:15What?
00:27:17How?
00:27:19Our parents died when I was 17.
00:27:21I didn't have time to date.
00:27:23If I wasn't working,
00:27:24I was with Nico.
00:27:25So you haven't been on
00:27:26one date?
00:27:28Men have asked me out,
00:27:30yeah,
00:27:30but
00:27:31they didn't understand why I couldn't leave my brother,
00:27:33and
00:27:33I didn't want to bring strangers back to our apartment.
00:27:37Look,
00:27:38this is the first time in my life
00:27:40where I haven't been worried about money.
00:27:42About how I'm going to pay rent,
00:27:45how I'm going to pay Nico's next medical bill.
00:27:47For once in my life,
00:27:48I can finally think about what I might want.
00:27:52What I might
00:27:53desire.
00:27:55So you were going to have my baby,
00:27:57and you've never had sex before?
00:27:59I know.
00:28:00I'm a saint.
00:28:01The Virgin Mary.
00:28:07What?
00:28:07Does this void the deal?
00:28:12I should have told you.
00:28:13Yes.
00:28:14You should have told me.
00:28:19Where are you going?
00:28:20I, uh,
00:28:23I have to think.
00:28:33Hello, brother.
00:28:35It's unlike you to have me over on a work day.
00:28:38I have a problem.
00:28:41Alice.
00:28:42Oh.
00:28:43A mystery girlfriend.
00:28:45Yeah,
00:28:45she's a,
00:28:46uh,
00:28:46uh,
00:28:47a virgin.
00:28:52There's a twist.
00:28:54I'm very surprised.
00:28:58She's quite pretty.
00:28:59It's just a little more responsibility than I was prepared for.
00:29:05I know it's been a while since you've been with anyone, but I'm sure you remember how to do it.
00:29:11In fact, if I remember correctly, Jenny Mills was a virgin and he slept with her.
00:29:15So was I and we were 16.
00:29:19Let's take it slow.
00:29:20Right?
00:29:21Come on.
00:29:22Let's wind a diner.
00:29:24Ah, Gideon.
00:29:29You're gonna have to behave like a gentleman.
00:29:34What will you do?
00:29:35Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?
00:29:45No, I knew I shouldn't have told you.
00:29:48Just hold on a second.
00:29:49No, I should have known better.
00:29:50It's a mistake.
00:29:51Every time someone finds out, they look at me different.
00:29:53Like, like I'm something fragile.
00:29:55They're afraid of breaking.
00:29:56No, hey, please don't tell me what's going on in my own mind.
00:30:01Look me in the eyes and tell me you didn't change your opinion of me.
00:30:03No, truthfully, I don't know.
00:30:06I don't know how I feel about it.
00:30:08I mean, it was certainly surprising.
00:30:09Bullshit.
00:30:11Alice, just slow down, okay?
00:30:15Is that fair?
00:30:21Fair.
00:30:26How about I take you for a drink?
00:30:29I thought you don't leave the house.
00:30:33Secret bar.
00:30:37Very James Bond.
00:30:41Yeah, I don't think it's such a bad thing.
00:30:45Not you being a virgin and all.
00:30:46I think that it points to some level of discipline.
00:30:51Can we talk about something else?
00:30:55It's been a while since I've been on a date.
00:30:57I'm a bit rusty.
00:30:58So what do you do locked away here all the time?
00:31:04Dress up in costumes and fight crime?
00:31:07Well, it helps to have a full bar next to the living room.
00:31:11So you really never leave?
00:31:14Never.
00:31:15Not even on a drive?
00:31:18Not even on a drive.
00:31:21Wild.
00:31:21There are benefits, though.
00:31:25Like?
00:31:28I don't normally tell people this,
00:31:31but I make the greatest martini in the entire world.
00:31:37Oh, yeah?
00:31:39Prove it.
00:31:40Well, I'll give it to you.
00:31:58That is a damn good drink.
00:32:00Have you ever even had a martini?
00:32:03No.
00:32:04But I'm from Iowa,
00:32:06and we know drinking.
00:32:09Thank you, bartender.
00:32:12So what brings you to this bar so late at night?
00:32:18Well, you know,
00:32:19I was supposed to meet someone here.
00:32:22Was he a good-looking guy?
00:32:25Well, he certainly seems to think so.
00:32:28You been working here long?
00:32:29No, I took it over from my father.
00:32:35Yeah?
00:32:37Yeah.
00:32:39I grew up in this house.
00:32:43God, I thought I told you that.
00:32:46No.
00:32:48But you don't really tell me anything.
00:32:51Well, when my parents died,
00:32:53I took over the estate.
00:32:57Are we sleeping in their bed?
00:32:58No, no.
00:33:00Absolutely not.
00:33:01Well, I mean, maybe the mattress pad.
00:33:03Oh, very sexy.
00:33:05Oh, I didn't know I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:09Well, it would certainly help pass the time.
00:33:11It's going.
00:33:17Yeah.
00:33:18Yeah.
00:33:18Yeah.
00:33:18Okay.
00:33:19Yeah.
00:33:20Yeah.
00:33:25Okay.
00:33:26Yeah.
00:33:26How was that?
00:33:56It didn't pass much time.
00:34:26Are you sure you want this?
00:34:28I'm sure.
00:34:34There's no pressure.
00:34:35Do you feel any kind of way?
00:34:36And if it hurts or anything?
00:34:37Yeah, thanks, Katie.
00:34:44I'll follow you, Leigh.
00:34:45All right?
00:34:45You take control.
00:34:46Does that sound okay?
00:34:47I want you to take control.
00:35:07Good morning.
00:35:12Oh, hey.
00:35:15Good morning.
00:35:17You feeling okay?
00:35:19Yeah.
00:35:20That was good, right?
00:35:25Oh, yeah.
00:35:27It was really good.
00:35:31We could have another drink tonight.
00:35:34I actually forgot to tell you.
00:35:35We're going to have dinner with Karen and Jenny tonight.
00:35:38Dinner?
00:35:39Okay, but why?
00:35:44Well, I mean, we have to seem like a big, happy family.
00:35:46If we're getting divorced in a year, we don't have to appear that happy.
00:35:50Well, no.
00:35:50I mean, we can't have any cracks in our story.
00:35:53I love my brother, but, I mean, he's got a loud mouth.
00:35:56And Jenny will say anything about everything.
00:35:59Well, then we better get our story straight.
00:36:01If we're going to get grilled, we should be on the same page.
00:36:03I'm sure.
00:36:04We could practice.
00:36:06I mean, our brother isn't exactly Columbo, and Jenny and Helga are harmless.
00:36:12Helga's coming?
00:36:14Yeah, she says she wanted to get to know you.
00:36:17She has it out for me.
00:36:18It's one night.
00:36:20We can get through one night.
00:36:27Soup's almost ready.
00:36:28Just another few minutes.
00:36:30Thank you, Helga.
00:36:30It's nice to get some face time with you, Alice.
00:36:37I've been wanting to get to know you better.
00:36:39Well, you know what they say?
00:36:41You don't know someone until you see them eat.
00:36:45How do you eat, Alice?
00:36:50You want me to spoil the surprise?
00:36:52I'll tell you how I eat.
00:36:55Until I'm full.
00:36:57Can attest to that.
00:36:59So tell us, how did you and Gideon meet?
00:37:02And the questions begin before you even have our appetizers.
00:37:06It'll be another few minutes.
00:37:08What were you saying, Gideon, about how you two met?
00:37:11Well, dear, would you like me to, or would you like to?
00:37:14Well, I just love the way you tell it.
00:37:16All right.
00:37:17Well, it's a very funny story, actually.
00:37:21We met at a charity event a few years ago, and then we happened to come across each other online a few months ago.
00:37:29What's funny about that?
00:37:32The way life works, sometimes.
00:37:34Well, honey, you forgot the funniest parts about how later that night you accidentally tripped me.
00:37:41Oh, and then she dropped her champagne glass.
00:37:43What event was it?
00:37:52What charity event was it?
00:37:59The one for the opera.
00:38:02I remember this.
00:38:03I literally remember Gideon telling me that he tripped someone.
00:38:08Don't you remember, Kieran?
00:38:09I told you about this.
00:38:10You know, I just don't remember you in our circle.
00:38:17You don't seem like the type.
00:38:21Why?
00:38:22Am I not high class enough?
00:38:25I didn't mean that.
00:38:26No, it's okay.
00:38:27I get it.
00:38:28I would be worried, too, if I thought someone was trying to take advantage of my family.
00:38:33I know you have a lot to protect, and I don't come from a home like this.
00:38:39So you're right.
00:38:40I can't prove to you that I'm not some gold digger.
00:38:43All I can do is promise you that Gideon and I, we know the truth, and we trust each other.
00:38:57You really are a special girl.
00:39:02I had my doubts, of course.
00:39:05I couldn't be sure of your intentions, especially with the way you walked in that first day.
00:39:09Like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
00:39:12You two moved in together so quick, I assumed that Gideon got you pregnant.
00:39:17You can imagine my relief when I saw the negative pregnancy test.
00:39:24Pregnancy test?
00:39:26Pregnancy test?
00:39:27Were you going through my trash?
00:39:31Of course not, Alice.
00:39:32Be reasonable.
00:39:34I was cleaning up the mess you made in your bathroom and didn't know what I was looking
00:39:38at until it was too late.
00:39:40Are you trying to get pregnant?
00:39:41Of course not, Kieran, but accidents happen.
00:39:43We are trying.
00:39:48Gideon, you don't think it's a little rushed?
00:39:51Of course it's rushed.
00:39:53No, it's not.
00:39:54And how is that?
00:39:55Because we just...
00:39:59It's okay.
00:40:01You can tell if I'm Gideon.
00:40:03I asked him to keep it a surprise, but we're getting married.
00:40:09What?
00:40:09When is this happening?
00:40:15Um, next week.
00:40:21And you're sure this is something you want to do?
00:40:27I'm positive.
00:40:28Well, in that case, welcome to the family, Alice.
00:40:40Soup's on!
00:40:41I'm sorry I told everyone we're getting married.
00:40:47I panicked.
00:40:48They were going to find out sooner or later.
00:40:50You know, now we need to pull together a quick wedding.
00:40:54Sounds easy enough.
00:40:55Oh, we got to get Nico cleared for a couple hours from the hospital.
00:40:59Why?
00:41:01Don't you want your brother there?
00:41:02How would that help the plan?
00:41:07No, I mean, don't you want your brother at the wedding?
00:41:12Now's not a good time.
00:41:14And besides, he'll be there when I get married for real one day.
00:41:20Yeah, no, that's fine.
00:41:22I mean, um, I got to get a prepared, um, you got to get a dress.
00:41:36I almost forgot.
00:41:37Need help?
00:42:00I think I got it.
00:42:02Please, let me help.
00:42:03It's what I'm here for.
00:42:07Are you nervous?
00:42:10Why would I be nervous?
00:42:11It's your wedding day.
00:42:14Right.
00:42:15I'm actually fine.
00:42:17Gideon's a great guy.
00:42:19I'm aware.
00:42:20I just mean there's nothing to be nervous about.
00:42:24I'm happy for you.
00:42:26Both of you.
00:42:27But especially you.
00:42:29What an amazing accomplishment.
00:42:31You should take your seat.
00:42:33The ceremony's starting soon, and I want to make sure you have a great view.
00:42:37It's bad luck to see each other before the wedding.
00:42:56I know.
00:42:57I think I can afford it.
00:43:00Why's that?
00:43:01Hold on one second.
00:43:03I've got a surprise for you.
00:43:09Congratulations.
00:43:17What are you doing here?
00:43:18It's your big day.
00:43:19We thought we'd surprise you.
00:43:21We?
00:43:22Me and Gideon.
00:43:23Hey, hey, hey.
00:43:31Think about how happy Mom and Dad would be to see us right now.
00:43:35Two orphans all grown up.
00:43:37Why did you get so old?
00:43:44We both got old way too young.
00:43:48I love that you're here.
00:43:50Okay, but nothing is worth risking your health.
00:43:54You're all I got, you know that?
00:43:58Not anymore.
00:43:58You're sure you're okay to sit through the whole ceremony?
00:44:05Oh, yeah.
00:44:06Definitely good enough to have a few drinks later.
00:44:08Let's get you wifed.
00:44:09Do you, Alice, take Gideon to be your lawfully wedded husband, promising to love and cherish
00:44:20through joy and sorrow, through sickness and health and whatever challenges you may face
00:44:25as long as you both shall live?
00:44:28I do.
00:44:29Would you please exchange rings?
00:44:48I do.
00:44:48Would you please exchange rings?
00:44:50I do.
00:44:51I do.
00:44:52I do.
00:44:53I do.
00:44:54I do.
00:44:56I do.
00:44:58By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:45:09You may kiss the bride.
00:45:28God, you are so beautiful.
00:45:43You have no idea how mad I am at you.
00:45:53You were incredible today.
00:46:11Have you ever even heard of a boundary?
00:46:14Come on, I've closed nine-figure deals on seven continents.
00:46:17Of course I've heard of boundaries.
00:46:18I just, I don't know, I thought you, I thought you'd be more appreciative.
00:46:24How?
00:46:25You totally ignored what I said.
00:46:27Because it wasn't what you wanted.
00:46:29What I want is for Nico to be healthy for his surgery.
00:46:34You jeopardized his health.
00:46:35Do you know how big of a violation that is?
00:46:37It's fine.
00:46:38Kieran is driving him back as we speak.
00:46:40He's going to get plenty of arrest for his procedure tomorrow.
00:46:43You're not his father.
00:46:44You're not his mother.
00:46:50Alice.
00:46:51No, I don't want to see you.
00:46:52I'm moving to another room to tell Helga whatever you want.
00:46:57Tell her we're fighting.
00:46:59No, Alice.
00:47:10Today's the day.
00:47:17First day of the rest of my life.
00:47:20Or the last.
00:47:21We'll see.
00:47:22God, I hate when you say stuff like that.
00:47:24I'm just joking.
00:47:25Relax.
00:47:26It'll be fine.
00:47:29So, where's your husband?
00:47:32You know, he doesn't leave the house much.
00:47:35Or at all, apparently.
00:47:37I was hoping he'd be with you.
00:47:40Well, don't worry about me.
00:47:43The doctor is going to take you to the operating room soon.
00:47:46And I will be here the whole time.
00:47:48I know you will be.
00:48:10Gideon.
00:48:12You left the house.
00:48:13It was getting stuffy in there.
00:48:15What are you doing here?
00:48:16I just, I really want to be here with you.
00:48:19I don't know.
00:48:20I don't know.
00:48:21You left the house.
00:48:22It was getting stuffy in there.
00:48:24What are you doing here?
00:48:26I just, I really want to be here with you.
00:48:28I just, I really want to be here with you.
00:48:49I'm a nervous wreck.
00:48:50He's going to be fine.
00:48:52You want to know how I know?
00:48:54How?
00:48:55Because I think you promised.
00:48:58I take these so seriously.
00:49:03Alice?
00:49:16Yes?
00:49:17How is Eve?
00:49:19Nico's surgery was a huge success.
00:49:22They'll bring him in here in just a moment.
00:49:24OK.
00:49:25Um, so everything went well?
00:49:27Better than we could have hoped for.
00:49:29We'll keep him for two more days,
00:49:31and then he'll be free to go home.
00:49:34Two days?
00:49:35Is that enough time?
00:49:36I want him to have around-the-clock medical care.
00:49:38What if there are complications?
00:49:39We don't foresee any complications.
00:49:41I mean, money is too much.
00:49:43I don't know.
00:49:44I don't know.
00:49:45I don't know.
00:49:46I don't know.
00:49:47I don't know.
00:49:48I don't know.
00:49:49I don't know.
00:49:50I don't know.
00:49:51I don't know.
00:49:52Money is not going to be a concern.
00:49:54Whatever it takes is fine.
00:49:55Money is not a concern for us, either.
00:49:57The thing is, I don't think he needs to be here any longer.
00:50:01He'll make a speedy recovery.
00:50:22Get in.
00:50:35Get in.
00:50:37Okay.
00:50:37Get in.
00:50:39Get in.
00:50:46Get in.
00:50:51What are you doing?
00:51:02I want this to be Nico's room.
00:51:06You don't have to do that.
00:51:08It's a big house, there are plenty of rooms.
00:51:10No.
00:51:12I'm ready to move on.
00:51:14To start over.
00:51:17Are you ready to tell me about her?
00:51:21I'm ready to go.
00:51:28Krista.
00:51:29She was quite the artist.
00:51:31Very famous.
00:51:33I'm sure you've heard of her.
00:51:35I'm absolutely sure I haven't.
00:51:39What happened between you two?
00:51:41She lied.
00:51:42She knew I wanted an heir.
00:51:45She had me fall in love with her.
00:51:48All the while knowing that she didn't want to become a mother.
00:51:54Women have always lied.
00:51:56Even when I was a kid.
00:51:58They would lie.
00:52:00Just to come to see my house.
00:52:02And then as we grew up, it became more about the gifts and the vacations.
00:52:06And my point is, I'm used to it.
00:52:11What made her different?
00:52:15She really had me fooled.
00:52:22You know I had to pay her off, just to never see her again.
00:52:25I was so angry.
00:52:32I didn't want to see anyone.
00:52:33And that's when the rumors started.
00:52:35Recluse billionaire.
00:52:37Gideon Maslow.
00:52:40Must be hard to hear people say that about you.
00:52:42No, I didn't care what they said anymore.
00:52:44You know, I had given up on love.
00:52:48But I had never given up on an heir.
00:52:50You know, I'm not gonna hurt you like she did.
00:52:54You really can trust me.
00:52:58Can I tell you a secret?
00:53:03I think I believe you.
00:53:05So, it really makes me feel better.
00:53:06Thankfully.
00:53:10And I should always visit me.
00:53:11So, could you always be angry right now?
00:53:12I hope it's in an empty way.
00:53:13I guess it.
00:53:14I should be happy.
00:53:15Let's go.
00:53:17You know.
00:53:18But that's okay.
00:53:19That's okay.
00:53:21Yes.
00:53:22What about that?
00:53:23I don't know.
00:53:24Yeah.
00:53:26Why did you dare?
00:53:27I'm sorry.
00:53:29That's okay.
00:53:31You know what?
00:53:33I don't know.
00:55:36And we're nearly ready to send you some options.
00:55:39No, I'm very pleased with the one that you referred.
00:55:44Mr. Maslow, we never referred anyone.
00:55:49What do you mean?
00:55:49I'm working with Alice Gardner.
00:55:51Who is Alice Gardner?
00:55:53Is everything okay?
00:56:03I just got off the phone with Brenda, Parkside Surrogacy.
00:56:10Gideon.
00:56:10I thought you said that I can trust you.
00:56:13God, I almost believed you.
00:56:15All the while, you've been lying to my face.
00:56:18Gideon, just let me explain.
00:56:19You are just like the rest of them.
00:56:22You know that you are...
00:56:23You're just like her.
00:56:25Okay, you're right.
00:56:26I'm no different than her.
00:56:27I lied to get close to you, and I was only in it for the money, but somewhere along the
00:56:31way, things changed.
00:56:33Okay, I fell in love with you.
00:56:36Gideon, I'm in love with you.
00:56:39That's what Krista said, too.
00:56:41I don't know what to say to make you believe me.
00:56:43Don't try, because it's not going to work.
00:56:46Right, I thought that having a contract would finally take the complications out of everything,
00:56:50letting me finally get an heir to my estate.
00:56:54God, you violated it from the start.
00:56:56You don't want an heir, Gideon.
00:56:58You want a child.
00:57:00You want to be a dad and to have a family, and deep down, you know that I don't want
00:57:04to leave when the money is paid.
00:57:06I want to stay, and I want to have a family with you.
00:57:08You're not scared that it's fake.
00:57:12You're scared that it might actually be real this time.
00:57:17I feel sorry for you, Gideon.
00:57:19You have everything in this world, and you're going to end up with nothing.
00:57:38Oh, I didn't know you were here.
00:57:46I was going to make the bed.
00:57:49Looks like you already did.
00:57:52Looks like I already did.
00:57:53I'm sorry, Gideon.
00:58:00I know you were really hoping she would be the one, but I guess she was just another one.
00:58:07It makes me question if I could be of assistance.
00:58:13Not unless you can get me an heir.
00:58:15That's actually exactly what I wanted to talk to you about.
00:58:21The last thing I want to do is overstep.
00:58:25It would be my nightmare to learn that I've crossed some sort of boundary.
00:58:29But I think Alice has confused you.
00:58:32Somewhere along the way, she got in your head and made it all mushy-gushy.
00:58:37What happened to you, Gideon?
00:58:38Gideon, you want an heir?
00:58:41Then you need someone you can trust.
00:58:43Someone who you don't need to worry will start feeling feelings or thinking thoughts.
00:58:51Gideon, I've stood by you, unwaveringly, watching these women enter and exit your life.
00:58:59You really want an heir?
00:59:02The Gideon I know would put one inside me right now.
00:59:08No, she didn't confuse me.
00:59:28She colored me in.
00:59:32Shaded me into three dimensions and she tore it all up.
00:59:36It's never simple with you, is it?
00:59:49I guess not.
00:59:51But I won't be making that mistake again.
00:59:56Which mistake is that?
00:59:58Poaching a surrogate for a contract marriage or trying to impregnate a virgin?
01:00:03Falling in love.
01:00:12Okay.
01:00:14I am going to do something that is very unlike me and actually give a shit for a second.
01:00:23Gideon, aside from the doctor that delivered you, I've known you longer than anyone on this planet.
01:00:32And once I finally kill that doctor, it'll be just me.
01:00:35Through all the parties, all the success, and all the women, I've never seen you as happy as when you are with Alice.
01:00:44I know she lied to you.
01:00:48She lied to me from the very beginning, from the absolute onset.
01:00:52Everything was built on a lie.
01:00:55But if you're going to trust something, trust your heart.
01:01:02Do you really want to lose her?
01:01:03Is it really worth that?
01:01:07So it was never real.
01:01:16It wasn't.
01:01:18Why didn't you tell me?
01:01:20I didn't think you'd understand.
01:01:22You try to protect me way too much, Alice.
01:01:25That's my job.
01:01:26And you've done a good job.
01:01:28You fixed my broken heart.
01:01:29But now I can do all the things that we dreamed about when we were kids.
01:01:36I don't need a mom.
01:01:38I need a sister.
01:01:41I love you so much.
01:01:44Can I tell you something?
01:01:46Always.
01:01:48I really loved him too.
01:01:59I'm sorry for lying to you.
01:02:28No, I'm sorry for giving it all up and wanting to throw it all away.
01:02:35That's not what you do, you know, when you love someone.
01:02:40I love you, Alice.
01:02:44I love you, Gideon.
01:02:46I want to be with you, and I want a family with you.
01:02:50That's what I want.
01:02:51I want you forever.
01:02:52I want you forever.
01:02:58What is that?
01:03:08I felt a bit weird this morning, so I thought I'd check.
01:03:13I want you all to be with you, and I'll see you next week.
01:03:36Amen.
