Short filmTranscript
00:00Everything we had, our savings, our family's home.
00:08Help. Please. Here.
00:15One night, one million. No questions. You'll do what I say every second.
00:21I lost everything. A house, savings. No, John. I'm not going through with this.
00:27If you go through with this, you'll lose me for good.
00:30I'd like you to meet my fiance. To be alive and to love.
00:36What do you want? I want revenge.
00:42This is Olivia. She's a master chef. Thought she might bring a little spice to our house.
00:49Careful, you're playing a dangerous game. Oh, I already have so much more than you ever could.
00:54You know what? It's delicious, Maria.
00:56One day, you'll know exactly how it feels to live in my shadow.
01:01You dare touch me?
01:02John!
01:03Help. Please.
01:16Help. Please.
01:32Here.
01:32Olivia, please hear me out.
01:50Whoever you are, your girlfriend's safe. Passed out on my couch, but safe.
01:56Wait. Who? Who is this? Where's Olivia?
02:01I'll send you the address. Be here soon, or don't come at all.
02:05Olivia, I thought I could fix it before you found out.
02:16Everything we had.
02:17Our savings. Our family's home. How could you risk it all in a single investment?
02:25I thought it was our shot. A chance to finally make something of myself.
02:30Sounds like you two are in a difficult spot.
02:36I'm willing to help. For a price.
02:41Spend one night with me.
02:46And I'll give you one million dollars.
02:49Sorry, did I hear you right? You want him to spend the night with you for money?
03:00It's just a business arrangement. One night, one million dollars.
03:06And what exactly do you expect from me?
03:09Just one night together. You get what you need, and I get what I want.
03:14You really think we would sell ourselves for this?
03:17Look, I've got things to arrange for tonight. I'll leave you two to think it over.
03:22You can't expect us to just wait here. We're leaving now.
03:25Oh my god, here. A hundred thousand. Just to stay here and think about it.
03:48Dad, I've given my life to this family. To this company. No one's more prepared to lead it than me.
03:56You don't lead people. You control them.
03:58And that's why people respect me.
04:00That's not respect. It's fear.
04:04Look around you. You're alone. No partner. No friends.
04:09If you can't build a family, how can you run our family business?
04:22Good evening, Maria. Everything all right?
04:30More than all right. Actually, I wanted to talk to you both about someone.
04:38I'd like you to meet my fiancÃĐ.
04:46A fiancÃĐ? I can't believe you didn't tell us sooner.
04:51Who is he?
04:52He's someone special.
04:55I thought it was time you met him.
04:56Why didn't you arrange a proper introduction? What's the sudden rush?
05:00Timing just felt right. Look, he'll be here soon.
05:13Hey, fiancÃĐ. When did you start planning this little fairy tale?
05:17I don't have time for you. Just watch and learn.
05:22John, do you really think this is the way to fix things?
05:29Selling yourself to that woman?
05:31I'm just trying to make up for the mess I made, Olivia.
05:34And this is just one night. And then we can start over.
05:38You don't get it, do you?
05:40One night isn't going to fix things.
05:43She's not giving you a second chance.
05:47She's taking you away from me.
05:48What choice do I have, Olivia?
05:50Olivia, I lost everything.
05:53Our house, the savings.
05:55No, John. I'm not going through with this.
06:00If you go through with this, you'll lose me for good.
06:06We're out of time. She's here.
06:09Let her in.
06:09I'll show her exactly what I think of her offer.
06:23So John is your latest hero, huh?
06:26Perfect timing to charm Dad.
06:29Right before the board meeting.
06:30Clever move, Maria.
06:31What, is it a crime to have someone in my life?
06:34Uh, I find it amusing.
06:36Do you think that's enough to make Dad believe you're ready to run the company?
06:44What's going on here?
06:47Just talking about the future.
06:48Yeah. Exciting family plans.
06:50You're gonna love it.
06:51Mmm.
07:02Maria?
07:03Well, you're definitely not Maria.
07:09Who are you?
07:12This is my house.
07:15Shouldn't you be the ones explaining yourselves?
07:17A woman brought us here. Isn't this her place?
07:20Yeah.
07:21That sounds like Maria.
07:23Might be her place, yes.
07:25But it's my house now.
07:27She, uh, she made us this crazy offer.
07:30We're just waiting for her to come back.
07:32But who is she? What kind of person does this?
07:34Maria's the type who always gets what she wants.
07:37Once she got her eye on something.
07:40Or someone.
07:43She won't let anything stand in her way.
07:45So this is just a game to her.
07:47It's not a game.
07:49It's how she keeps control.
07:50Once you're in, you're playing by her rules.
07:55So if you're smart, you walk away before she decides you belong to her.
08:12So, what game are we playing tonight, darling?
08:14Relax. I've got it all under control.
08:20Time's up.
08:23What's your answer?
08:25Stay away from us.
08:27We're not interested in whatever you're offering.
08:29Oh my god.
08:30Look at you.
08:31Acting like you've got a say in this.
08:34You're out of your league here.
08:35This isn't some street hustle.
08:38Money can't buy everything, you know?
08:40John's staying here with me.
08:42Careful.
08:43You don't have the power to touch me.
08:45In my world, you're nothing.
08:48Is it really one million dollars?
08:54One night.
08:55One million.
08:56No questions.
08:58You'll do what I say every second.
09:05Undress.
09:05Yes.
09:07Now.
09:12Put this on.
09:12You really think this proves something?
09:29Throwing your money around so that people will obey you?
09:32It proves I get what I want.
09:36He's not your toy.
09:37And this is desperation.
09:40Not power.
09:41Desperation?
09:43That's the language of losers.
09:48Gone.
09:50Let's finish this show.
09:51Perfect.
10:00Now follow me.
10:08Here.
10:10Do you remember everything I told you?
10:12Yes.
10:13Okay, good.
10:14We need to convince my family that we've been in love for months and are ready to marry.
10:20Okay, only then you'll be off the hook.
10:23I think I can handle it.
10:24No, you don't need to think.
10:26You need to know.
10:27The answers need to come naturally.
10:29Like we've been in love for months.
10:32Okay?
10:36And one more thing.
10:38If you slip up and they see through you, it's game over.
10:46You know what that means?
10:49That means you, Olivia, anything you care about is gone.
10:57There won't be a second chance.
11:00Understand?
11:03Good.
11:04Good.
11:08So, Johnny, are you in finance?
11:12Mostly investments.
11:14Look for opportunities.
11:16I see.
11:16The Western family, quite the opportunity.
11:19Wouldn't you say?
11:21No.
11:22Not everything's business, Duke.
11:24Some things are worth more than money.
11:27Well, it's rare to find somebody who understands that not everything has a price.
11:33Thank you, Grace.
11:34Dinner.
11:35It's been incredible.
11:36Oh, don't be too impressed.
11:39It's ordered in.
11:40Nothing special tonight.
11:41So, tell us.
11:44When's the big day?
11:46Soon.
11:47We didn't see the need to wear.
11:49It's a commitment.
11:50Hope you're ready for everything that comes with it, John.
11:52Just remember, even love comes with a price in this family.
12:04Gonna grab some fresh air.
12:06And no, I'm not quitting.
12:09Maybe I should get going, too.
12:11It's getting late, and...
12:12Oh, no, no, no, no.
12:13John's staying.
12:15Isn't that right?
12:16Yes, please, there, stay.
12:17You're practically family now.
12:21How about a real drink, John?
12:23Let's even keep up.
12:25Darling, wait.
12:25I'll come with you.
12:28What is this?
12:30Why am I still here?
12:31Because they're not convinced yet.
12:33Especially Duke.
12:35Tonight, we make sure they believe every word of it.
12:39And that means...
12:40showing them just how much we're in love.
12:47This is your family, Marie.
12:48You want them to think we're having some...
12:49John!
12:50Your best is in the car.
12:53Olivia, is it?
12:54Seems she's, like, really eager to reach you.
13:01Duke, just that.
13:02Give me the phone.
13:03Oh, come on, John.
13:04Let's not keep her waiting.
13:06John.
13:07John, please.
13:08Don't let her do this to you.
13:09Don't trust her.
13:11Are you with Laura right now?
13:15Yes.
13:16Yes, I am.
13:17Well, the two of you are still holding on to the past.
13:21John and I, we've moved on.
13:24Maybe it's time you both did the same.
13:27This isn't over.
13:28You won't just push me out of his life.
13:30I know exactly what you're doing.
13:33I think it is over.
13:35John and I, we've chosen each other.
13:39Olivia, I've made my choice.
13:42Marie and I, getting married.
13:45Sometimes, I think everything is how we finally see what's left to hold on to.
14:03And what exactly do I have left?
14:04Homeless, alone, broke.
14:10I don't even have a place to stay tonight.
14:12Tonight, you stay here.
14:14Get some rest.
14:15And tomorrow, start fresh.
14:17Start fresh.
14:18Do what?
14:20I have nothing left.
14:22Forget that.
14:24Think about yourself, Olivia.
14:26What do you want?
14:28I want revenge.
14:31It's that simple.
14:34Shower and clean up.
14:37Look like you're ready for a fight.
14:39Why are you helping me?
14:42Because I know exactly what it feels like.
14:45To lose everything to Maria.
14:53At the call.
14:55Seems like she's not over you, buddy.
14:57Oh, Duke.
14:58Everyone has a past.
15:00But when you know what you want, it's easier to leave them behind.
15:04Right?
15:05Well, speaking of the past, wasn't Laurie your shrink.
15:08Father might find it interesting that his future CEO still needs professional support.
15:14Support?
15:15Maria, are you still seeing your therapist?
15:19I thought you were ready to lead, not lean.
15:23Maria, if you're going to lead, understanding your emotions, your condition is crucial.
15:30Without it, real connection is impossible.
15:33I don't need connection.
15:35I need control.
15:38Leadership isn't just about control.
15:39It's about empathy, trust, knowing when to rely on others.
15:46Relying on others makes you weak.
15:49And I won't be weak.
15:52Don't worry, Father.
15:54I'm not weak.
15:56I'm in control.
15:58Always.
16:05All right, it's been a long night.
16:07I'm going to show John to my room.
16:10Thank you for both having me.
16:11It's been a pleasure.
16:13John, you expect great things.
16:17Welcome to the family, John.
16:18Rest well.
16:21Come on.
16:27So your lord keeps watching.
16:31You'll stay here tonight.
16:33I want you close, okay?
16:34Okay.
16:54He's listening.
16:56You need to keep this up, okay?
16:58Are you okay?
17:11Are you okay?
17:13Oh, yeah.
17:15Yeah, John.
17:16Wow.
17:17John!
17:18Oh, my God.
17:28Oh, my God.
17:28Oh, my God.
17:29Right there.
17:29Yes, John!
17:31Have you never had sex before?
17:33Oh, my God.
17:36Yeah, John, that's so good.
17:38Oh, yeah.
17:39Oh, yeah.
17:40Yeah.
17:40Yeah.
17:41Yeah, that's good.
17:42Oh, my God.
17:43Oh, my God.
17:43Oh, my God.
17:45Oh, my God.
17:46Yes.
18:04Can I ask you something?
18:06Depends.
18:07Will it bore me?
18:09You're stunning, rich, confident.
18:13You could have anyone you wanted.
18:16Why do you pay me to act like your lover?
18:21Because feelings, they come with expectations.
18:26If someone thinks you care, they expect more.
18:30But if you own someone, like I own you, it's easy.
18:36I say goodbye and it's done.
18:40Are you catching feelings for me?
18:41I hope not, John.
18:47That'd be disappointing.
18:57Make yourself comfortable, John.
18:58Not too comfortable, John.
19:12We're not done yet.
19:17Tomorrow's the board meeting.
19:30Father's announcing his retirement, and if all goes well, I'll be the one he names to lead.
19:34You said this was for just one night.
19:39I'll have you until sunset tomorrow.
19:40Ahem.
19:42Oh, my God.
19:43It's OK.
19:44I'll be the one.
19:48It's OK.
19:58I'll be the next one.
20:00Now, give me a try.
20:31Hey sis, just thought you'd like to know, father's not feeling that good today, might have
20:48been that dinner last night. Meeting is postponed.
21:01You really know how to spoil a good moment.
21:13This isn't a game, Duke. I've seen what you've done. Reckless spending, scandals. You're
21:31dragging this company down. Now you have a choice. You either step down quietly or I bring
21:39these to Edward. We both know what he'll do when he sees this mess.
21:44What? Crown you his successor? He'd rather give this place to the janitor than to trust
21:49either of us. The janitor, yeah. Well, at least I'm trying to save what's left of this family.
21:54You don't care about this company, Duke. All you care about is the title, the image, nothing
22:00real. Spare me the lecture, Maria. You don't want to save anything. You just want control.
22:05You know what? If you want to drag yourself down, go ahead. But I'm not going to be there
22:14to rescue you.
22:15I'll keep that in mind, dear sister.
22:17I heard you postpone the meeting. Is everything all right? Nothing serious, just a headache.
22:31Not feeling my best today. That's exactly why it's time to move forward. Let me take this off
22:36your shoulders. You know there's no one better fit to run the family business. Maybe. But let's
22:42have this chat another day. Father, look at me. Look at me. I'm ready. I'm finally ready.
22:51I'm getting married. I'm starting my own family. I know my responsibilities now.
22:57Can you at least leave Dad alone today? I told you, no meetings.
23:02Dad's feeling better now. He just needs a day of rest before he's ready to announce his decision.
23:07Right, Dad? I'm fine.
23:10Dad's feeling better now.
23:11Dad's feeling better now.
23:12Dad's feeling better now.
23:13Dad's feeling better now.
23:14Dad's feeling better now.
23:15Dad's feeling better now.
23:16Dad's feeling better now.
23:17Dad's feeling better now.
23:18Dad's feeling better now.
23:19Dad's feeling better now.
23:20Dad's feeling better now.
23:21Dad's feeling better now.
23:22Dad's feeling better now.
23:23Dad's feeling better now.
23:24Dad's feeling better now.
23:25Dad's feeling better now.
23:26Dad's feeling better now.
23:27Dad's feeling better now.
23:28Dad's feeling better now.
23:29Dad's feeling better now.
23:30Dad's feeling better now.
23:31Dad's feeling better now.
23:32Dad's feeling better now.
23:33Dad's feeling better now.
23:34Dad's feeling better now.
23:35Dad's feeling better now.
23:36Dad's feeling better now.
23:37Olivia, you don't know me, but we gotta talk.
23:49Sign it.
24:02An NDA, what's this for?
24:08You want your money, don't you? Then sign it.
24:18Done. Am I free to go now?
24:20Free. Oh no, you're not free, John. We had a deal, remember?
24:25A deal was for one night, Maria. One night.
24:30Yeah, it was one night. But you weren't exactly convincing yesterday.
24:35Not enough for them to believe we're the perfect couple.
24:38You're not going anywhere, John. Not until you convince everyone that we are in love.
24:44And by the time we're done, even you might believe it.
24:48Now I understand John's poor judgment. Only a fool will leave you behind.
25:03And who exactly are you?
25:05I believe you met my sister, Maria. I'm Duke.
25:09Then listen carefully. I'm gonna destroy John and her. So if you're here to get in my way...
25:15I wouldn't dream of it. As a matter of fact, I plan to enjoy it every second.
25:20And why would you want to tear down your own sister? And how exactly are we going to do that?
25:26You see, Maria believes she owns everyone. Even her own family. But without that control, she's got nothing.
25:35All we gotta do is to pull the rug from under her. She'll slowly fall apart.
25:41So we just sit back and watch? Exactly. No bold moves, no confrontations. Just time.
25:50Maria can be her worst enemy given the right push.
25:54And where do I fit into all of this?
25:57Let's just say that I could use a motivator in my life.
26:02Olivia, are you looking for a job?
26:07So, John. How did you and my daughter cross paths?
26:15Paris. Just two months ago. By this end.
26:19Out like fate.
26:21Seems so sudden. What's with the big rush?
26:25Father, do you remember you told me something about love? Not needing explanations or definitions.
26:33You said love was like being alive. You know when you are, and you know when you're not.
26:44That's how I knew. I was alive. After all these years.
26:50To be alive. And to love.
26:52Hope we're not too late to join the celebrations.
26:55Well, Duke. Aren't you going to introduce us to your lovely guest?
27:06This is Olivia. She's a master chef.
27:10Thought she might bring a little spice to our house.
27:13Is that really necessary? Do we have all the help we need?
27:16Oh, nonsense. It's a splendid idea. You're very welcome here.
27:20Thank you, Mr. Weston. I'll be sure to make myself useful.
27:26And of course, sure of you, Miss Maria.
27:32And you must be John?
27:35I'm Olivia.
27:37Ah, Grace. There you are, darling. Meet Olivia, our new chef.
27:43She's going to be staying with us for a while.
27:45Ooh, isn't this cozy?
27:48One big happy family.
27:50To new beginnings, then.
28:02All right, drop the act. What are you doing here?
28:06Isn't it obvious?
28:08Making myself a home?
28:10That dress. That's Laura's.
28:13Oh, this?
28:16Yeah, she was kind enough to let me borrow it.
28:19Generous, isn't she?
28:21Generous?
28:22She bought that dress with my money.
28:25That dress doesn't belong to you.
28:28Just like this life doesn't.
28:32Take it off. Now.
28:34You'll have to rip it off me first.
28:36You're pathetic.
28:45All this power, all this wealth.
28:47And you still can't stand someone challenging you, Maria.
28:51Challenging me?
28:52Well, challenge me all you want.
28:55But when you fall again, you will fall.
28:58Don't expect me to help you up.
29:01Again.
29:03Help.
29:05Please.
29:12We'll see who loses Maria.
29:14Enjoy your borrowed life.
29:16Cause it's not gonna last.
29:18Oh.
29:19And next time?
29:20I won't be so polite.
29:23I won't be so polite.
29:24I won't be so polite.
29:32Did you make these yourself?
29:37Did you make these yourself?
29:51Yes, sir.
29:53Thought a little something homemade might brighten the morning.
29:56Well, mission accomplished.
29:58Please, sit, Olivia.
30:00You deserve a break.
30:03It's nice to feel appreciated around here.
30:05You know, this house isn't so easy.
30:08What is that?
30:09Is it the room?
30:10I can arrange something bigger if you like.
30:12No, it's not the room or anything like that.
30:14It's just the way things are.
30:17You know, I didn't grow up with all this money and power.
30:21My family were just simple people.
30:23You think I was born into this life?
30:26No.
30:27I had to build it.
30:28Piece by piece.
30:30That's why it hurt so much to my kids.
30:32They never had to fight for anything.
30:35The other day, Maria, she told me I stink of poverty.
30:43She can't even look at me without disgust.
30:45Olivia, this is my house.
30:48If anyone in this family doesn't like it, they're free to leave.
30:51I couldn't stop thinking about you.
31:02Didn't know where you were.
31:04Were you all right?
31:05Where was I?
31:07After you left me?
31:10Broke?
31:11Homeless?
31:12Alone?
31:12I stayed where I could.
31:15But don't worry.
31:17I didn't sell myself.
31:19If that's what you were wondering.
31:20Olivia, please.
31:21I know I hurt you, but it's not what you think.
31:24Just give me a chance to explain.
31:27You chose money over me, John.
31:28And that, I can't just forget.
31:33You know I love you, right?
31:36Please don't forget that.
31:38I'll be done with this game soon, and then we can leave together.
31:42I promise.
31:48John!
31:48Get your hands off her now!
31:50You're set to marry my daughter.
31:59Yet here you are with another woman under my roof.
32:03It's not what it looks like.
32:06I knew Olivia from before.
32:07From before?
32:08From where exactly?
32:09Mr. Weston.
32:11I don't know who he is.
32:12He's just a stranger to me.
32:17Okay, I'm trying to understand what Maria sees in you.
32:19Or if she's seen clearly at all.
32:21Look, Dad.
32:22John and I are going to handle this privately.
32:25Aren't we, John?
32:26Let's go.
32:27John, if you cross this line again, you won't get within a mile of this family.
32:32Are we clear?
32:43Do you have any idea what you've done?
32:46Everyone is suspicious now.
32:48Well, we had a plan, and you managed to ruin it in one day.
32:52Maybe you shouldn't have relied on a plan so fragile that a single mistake could break it.
32:57You're here because you're supposed to follow orders, not question me.
33:03Do your job.
33:05Prove your worth.
33:06And then you'll get your money.
33:08Money?
33:09Right.
33:09But let's be real, Maria.
33:11If your father doesn't choose you, you've got nothing to give me, do you?
33:18So what's the backup plan?
33:20Because from where I'm standing, you're not in as control as you think.
33:24Don't push me, John.
33:24You're here because when you signed that paper, you gave away any control you had.
33:30In fact, you handed me the keys to your life.
33:34If you fail me, I'll make sure that you lose everything.
33:41Even the things you didn't know you had left.
33:44So go ahead.
33:46Test me if you want.
33:47But if I were you, I'd start thinking about the price of obedience.
33:58You know, Olivia, you're playing your part beautifully.
34:02But remember, you're here to do a job, not to get cozy with my father.
34:10I'm here to do exactly what I was brought here to do, Duke.
34:13But I think I'm going to do it my way, not yours.
34:18Careful, Olivia.
34:20Don't think you're running the show here.
34:24This is my house, and remember, I brought you here.
34:27Maybe so.
34:29But while I'm here, this is my room.
34:32And you're not welcome in it.
34:34Yeah?
34:36If I decide to stay...
34:39Then you'd only be proving why your father doesn't respect you.
34:43You see, he knows something about dignity.
34:47Clearly something you've never learned.
34:50You think his protection will keep you safe here?
34:53Mr. Weston let me in here.
34:57And you see, he's the one calling the shots.
35:01Not you.
35:01Olivia, you bring something to this house I thought I'd lost.
35:14Really, Mr. Weston?
35:18I think we're well past Mr. Weston now, don't you?
35:23All right, Edward.
35:24Edward, I find myself looking forward to each day, knowing I'll see you.
35:32Edward, I didn't expect.
35:34I mean, like, I never thought that...
35:37Sometimes, words just get in the way.
35:40How could you?
35:56After all these years?
36:01I can't do this anymore.
36:04I have my lawyer sign the papers.
36:06Mom, don't do this.
36:23Don't let her push you out.
36:26If anyone should be leaving, it's her.
36:28Oh, my baby girl.
36:31This is not about her.
36:33This is about your father.
36:35He's searching for something else.
36:37And I'm tired of being the one waiting.
36:40Stay then.
36:42Let him see what he's giving up.
36:44Show him that you're the one holding us together.
36:46I tried.
36:47I tried for so many years.
36:50But no matter how much love I gave,
36:52it was never enough to feel the emptiness in him.
37:02Please, take care of each other.
37:07And don't ever think you are not enough.
37:10Are you going to say goodbye to her?
37:31Grace made her choice.
37:32There's nothing more to say.
37:33So, how are things going to be now?
37:38Between us, I mean.
37:40This isn't the time for that discussion.
37:43Is that your way of saying you regret this?
37:46Are you blaming me?
37:47No.
37:48It was bound to happen.
37:50Grace was always looking for an excuse to leave.
37:52Oh, so I'm just an excuse.
37:58That's it.
37:59Fairytale's over.
38:00Cinderella goes back to cleaning the kitchen.
38:10I'm going to ask you this once.
38:12What did you do to my mother?
38:16Nothing.
38:18Maybe she just finally had enough.
38:21Watching her own children turn out to be such disappointment.
38:24Careful, you're playing a dangerous game.
38:26In this house, you're going to get eaten up alive.
38:30And you'll be left with nothing.
38:32Nothing?
38:33Oh, I already have so much more than you ever could.
38:37And you know what?
38:39It's delicious, Maria.
38:41Okay.
38:42What, you think throwing yourself at him gives you power?
38:45It only proves what everyone already sees.
38:47A woman so desperate, she'll hang on to any man with a pulse and a dollar.
38:53At least I didn't have to write a check just to make me feel wanted.
38:57You see, that's the difference between us, Maria.
39:01Yeah, we'll enjoy it while it lasts.
39:03Because once my father sees who you really are, he'll throw you out with the rest of the trash.
39:10Stay away from my father.
39:12And stay the hell out of my life.
39:15Got it.
39:17Got it.
39:45John, have you lost your mind?
39:56What are you doing here?
39:57Just give me a minute, please.
40:03What are you really doing here?
40:05What's the plan?
40:06I'm here to keep my promise, John.
40:09To make sure you regret every moment.
40:12Olivia.
40:20Olivia, this doesn't have to be about revenge.
40:23I'm here for the money.
40:24For us.
40:26Help me and we can leave this together.
40:30You left me, John.
40:32You broke me.
40:34You broke us.
40:36And now you're all wrapped up in Maria's lies.
40:39I've made mistakes, but I never stopped loving you.
40:43Not for one second.
40:48You think you can just pick up the pieces?
40:50It's not that simple, John.
40:53Not all wounds can just heal.
40:56Maybe not, but I'd hold on to every broken piece if I could still help you.
41:09Maria, do I really need to remind you who wins you?
41:27If you want your money, you're going to stay in your role.
41:30And if you think you're coming into my bed again, you're going to stay away from this.
41:39You really think you can still buy everything?
41:41It's actually amusing how little it costs to make them forget you.
41:45Maria, that's not...
41:46Look.
41:47Either you're going to take the life I'm giving you, or you're going to throw it away.
41:53For her.
41:55Choose wisely.
42:12Everything's falling apart.
42:14If I don't find a way to stay in this game, Maria will toss me out without a cent.
42:19Why do you still care about Maria's money?
42:21It's not even hers, it's her father's.
42:23Look, maybe we should play by his rules, not hers.
42:28Why would he give me a million dollars?
42:30Edward doesn't care about me.
42:32Not one bit.
42:33No, he doesn't care about you.
42:36But he does have other interests.
42:40Don't even think about it, Olivia.
42:42Edward's just another rich man who gets bored easily.
42:46He'll use you up and throw you out like you're nothing.
42:49Isn't that why we're here?
42:51For the money?
42:52Let me handle this.
42:56Don't play games with these people.
42:59We'll figure it out.
43:02Tomorrow.
43:14Olivia.
43:14Yeah.
43:16Edward?
43:32Do you know what alexitamia is?
43:34It's when someone can truly feel or express their emotions like others do.
43:41For you it means you may never know what love really is.
43:46And what exactly is love?
43:48Love is a connection beyond reason.
43:52It's that force that rules you in even when you try to resist.
43:56It makes you care beyond reason.
44:02Then it sounds unnecessary.
44:04I don't need it.
44:06You're a remarkable woman, Maria.
44:08It's a shame.
44:10Someone like you might never know what it's like to love.
44:15Or be loved.
44:21Maria?
44:21Wait, tell me, John.
44:26What is love?
44:30I, I don't know.
44:32It's not something you say.
44:34It's something you feel.
44:35Did you feel it?
44:48Did you feel love?
44:50Is this part of the game or is this?
44:52What did it feel like with Olivia?
44:55When you touched her?
44:56When you kissed her?
44:57It's like everything fades.
45:00It's just her.
45:02The way she laughs.
45:04The way she smells.
45:06Tie this over your eyes.
45:17Now touch me.
45:20Touch me as if I'm her.
45:34That's enough.
45:35I don't have time for fantasies.
45:37Come on, get up.
45:39We have work to do.
45:48Good morning, John.
45:50Decided to join us, I see.
45:52Good morning, John.
45:52Decided to join us, I see.
45:52Look, Father, I was saying, now that Mother's gone, I think it's time to end this family competition.
46:05It's tearing us all apart.
46:06So you're finally giving up?
46:08Well, if it means peace, then yes.
46:14Give Duke the title, if you think he's earned it.
46:17It's not likely to surrender, Maria.
46:19What's behind the change of heart?
46:21Letting go doesn't mean that I've lost.
46:24It just means that I'm picking my battles.
46:27That's all.
46:29You know what, Maria?
46:30Enjoy your last days here.
46:32Because once I'm in charge, this whole empire is going to look a lot different.
46:36Is that a threat, Duke?
46:39One day you'll know exactly how it feels to live in my shadow.
46:54So I overheard the conversation.
46:57That means we won, right?
46:58Oh, Olivia!
47:01She won again!
47:03But you're the CEO.
47:04She's out.
47:05It's not what you really wanted.
47:07Do you think that this is what I wanted?
47:10Business reports, boardroom meetings.
47:12This was always her dream, not mine.
47:14Then what do you really want?
47:17To be seen.
47:19To have my father look at me just once.
47:22And tell me that he's proud.
47:25That's gone now.
47:26She took it from me.
47:28Oh, Duke.
47:30Something the matter?
47:31You don't look like a man who just got everything he wanted.
47:34You never wanted me to have this.
47:36I just wanted to win.
47:37Yeah, you know, if you were looking for dad's approval, you're always going to be disappointed.
47:42Because you know there was always one favorite.
47:45And guess what?
47:46It wasn't you.
47:47Hey, you dare touch me?
47:57Do you really get your kicks tearing down people?
47:59Even your own family?
48:00Oh, please.
48:02Duke's life's been falling apart for years.
48:04My help's hardly needed.
48:05You tear people down just to make yourself feel powerful.
48:09But guess what?
48:09It's all slipping through your fingers now, isn't it, Maria?
48:12You're stepping out of line.
48:13Back.
48:14Remember where you are and who you're dealing with.
48:17Oh, I know exactly who I'm dealing with.
48:20And I pity you.
48:23You're all alone.
48:25You're too proud to even see it.
48:27Maria, Edward knows.
48:29Duke's telling him everything.
48:31Right now!
48:32Dad, please just listen to me.
48:37I don't have time for this, Duke.
48:39Save the drama.
48:39I have a company to run.
48:41No, you're going to hear me now.
48:43I know that Maria is the one who can handle the business.
48:45I've always known.
48:47All I ever wanted was for you to see me as something more.
48:51To trust me.
48:52Trust you?
48:53When have you done anything but rely on this family's name?
48:56You've wasted every chance you've had.
48:59And, Maria,
49:00you think she's so perfect?
49:03She bought John.
49:05She paid him to act like her fiancÃĐ.
49:07It's all an act.
49:09And, Olivia?
49:10Tell me, Duke,
49:11who paid her to play her part in this?
49:26Did you two really think I wouldn't notice?
49:29You think I'm blind?
49:30You never gave me a chance, Dad.
49:32You always dismissed me like I was nothing.
49:35Maybe if you had just had a little thing,
49:38just a little,
49:40you'd see maybe we're not playing games.
49:42Faith.
49:44This little performance was meant to prove something to me.
49:47You never wanted to see what we're capable of.
49:49Maria might be desperate.
49:50Maria might be desperate.
49:52And I've made mistakes.
49:53But we're not completely useless.
49:56We're just trying to earn our place, Father.
50:00You know what?
50:02If that takes more than you're willing to see,
50:04then maybe that's your own fault.
50:07Neither of you deserve a thing.
50:10Maybe it's time I reconsider what this company truly needs.
50:12Maria's not going to pay me.
50:20I should have seen this coming.
50:22So what now, Olivia?
50:23What can we do?
50:25There's no we, John.
50:27You know that, right?
50:28What are you on about?
50:30Just yesterday, you and I...
50:31Yesterday was a mistake.
50:34I have a plan,
50:35and you're not involved in it.
50:38It's this plan, Olivia.
50:40Why don't we let everyone hear it?
50:44Neither of you deserve a thing.
50:46Maybe it's time I reconsider what this company truly needs.
50:57Edward, should we make things clearer for everyone?
51:06I hadn't planned to announce this today, but yes.
51:10I've decided not to attire.
51:14You thought I wanted someone to take over this empire.
51:19No.
51:21I wanted something real.
51:23But with you two, there's always demands,
51:26expectations,
51:28never love.
51:31Olivia, was this your plan all along?
51:36I'm sorry.
51:38I was lost.
51:40Grace leaving,
51:41the divorce,
51:42step away from the company.
51:44I wasn't myself.
51:45Forgive me.
51:47You've been through so much.
51:48It would affect anyone.
51:52But before we go any further,
51:55there's something you need to know.
51:56I didn't come here by accident.
52:01Okay.
52:02What do you mean, Olivia?
52:05Well...
52:05I came here with a plan.
52:08I came here to hurt Maria.
52:11You see,
52:12she paid my boyfriend
52:13one million dollars
52:15to pretend to be her fiancÃĐ.
52:17John was your boyfriend.
52:26Maria used my money for this.
52:29Yeah.
52:32But
52:33somewhere along the line,
52:36my plans all fell apart.
52:37because I met you.
52:42And
52:43I think I'm falling for you.
52:47Yeah.
52:47She's using you.
52:53Look, she's nothing.
52:54You're making a mistake.
52:55No, Maria.
52:56The only mistake I made
52:57was thinking you cared about
52:58anything other than my wealth.
53:00Oh, my God.
53:01Olivia,
53:02she's the only one
53:03who's been honest with me.
53:05She sees me for who I really am.
53:09When you looked at him,
53:10all you saw was power,
53:12authority,
53:14someone to use for your gain.
53:17But when I saw him,
53:19I saw a man
53:20searching for love
53:22and ready to give it in return.
53:26Over these past few days,
53:27it's as if I've come back
53:28to life forgiven.
53:30Feeling younger than I have in years.
53:33So,
53:34my decision is final.
53:36I'm staying on.
53:38I'm going to lead the company
53:39with Olivia by my side.
53:42Olivia,
53:42is this who you really are?
53:44Is this how you take revenge?
53:47You never wanted to know
53:48the real me, John.
53:50And that's the real tragedy here.
53:53John, leave.
53:55You've taken enough from this house.
54:06Father,
54:06you're making a fool of yourself.
54:08You know what?
54:09You are after one thing.
54:11You're after his money.
54:12Money?
54:13That's all you two
54:15ever wanted from me.
54:17She's using you.
54:19She's manipulating you
54:20and you're two blinded
54:21by whatever this is to see it.
54:23I see very clearly now.
54:25This family,
54:26this house,
54:28you used it like a playground.
54:29This is my choice.
54:34This is my future.
54:38I'm done living by your expectations.
54:41So, okay, what?
54:43You're going to throw us away?
54:45For her?
54:46No, Maria.
54:47You threw me away
54:48long before Olivia came into my life.
54:50So that's it?
54:51You're replacing us with her?
54:55She's nothing, Dad.
54:56She's no family.
54:59Duke,
54:59I didn't need a family.
55:02That's why I'm here
55:04and you're not.
55:07You're not.
