Short filmTranscript
00:00:00When a mysterious billionaire asks you to marry him for a year and give him an heir,
00:00:04what 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
00:00:32I wanted this baby and the strange little family we'd become. I wanted him. But my year with Gideon
00:00:40Maslow was coming 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 dove.
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.
00:02:20That'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?
00:02:48To be a surrogate, you need to have given birth before.
00:02:51It 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.
00:03:39Oh, 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...
00:04:02Have you heard of someone named Gideon Maslow?
00:04:06Yeah, of course.
00:04:08He'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.
00:04:28Okay.
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.
00:04:36Well, the 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.
00:04:43Sure, I'll text you my...
00:04:46Can I help you?
00:05:16Hi, yes.
00:05:17I'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.
00:05:46Sign.
00:05:53Sign.
00:05:59What 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
00:06:14on your ass, the likes of which you couldn't even imagine.
00:06:18Your lawyers are going to need lawyers, and their lawyers are going to need lawyers.
00:06:23Okay, jeez, I get it.
00:06:25You could've just asked me to pinky-promise.
00:06:29I take those very seriously.
00:06:31All right.
00:06:33Let's get down to business.
00:06:36I need a surrogate of sorts.
00:06:39Of 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?
00:06:55What?
00:06:56What?
00:06:57Oh.
00:06:58You're one of those billionaires.
00:07:01Freaky psychopath.
00:07:02Well, the marriage would be a temporary situation.
00:07:05After 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, he'll retain visitation rights, but the marriage has to appear real for at least
00:07:17one year.
00:07:18Why?
00:07:19If I want my heir to eventually take over the company, he has to maintain my family's pristine
00:07:25reputation.
00:07:26See, 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, like how tall are you?
00:07:39Why can't you just find a real wife?
00:07:41I don't get out much.
00:07:44I enjoy the solitude.
00:07:47And 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.
00:08:11I'm sorry, I can't do this.
00:08:13I agreed to have a child for you, not to have a child with you.
00:08:2010 million dollars.
00:08:3010 million dollars?
00:08:3210 million dollars.
00:08:33Okay.
00:08:34Okay.
00:08:35Okay.
00:08:36I'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.
00:08:42I still have to think about it.
00:08:44You're the first woman that I interviewed for the position.
00:08:47Well, look no further.
00:08:48You've found me, Mrs. Gideon Maslow.
00:08:51You really like the sound of all that money, don't you?
00:08:55No, I don't like it.
00:08:57I need it.
00:09:03My 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.
00:09:09So why don't you ask your parents for the money?
00:09:14It's not an option.
00:09:16Look, I'll be the best fake wife you've ever had.
00:09:19Okay?
00:09:20Please?
00:09:22Please?
00:09:25All right.
00:09:30We'll call it highly motivated.
00:09:32I like that in a business partner.
00:09:35You're hired.
00:09:37I promise you, it's all quite standard.
00:09:43Hmm, yes, quite.
00:09:46It 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.
00:09:53And all your day-to-day expenses will be taken care of.
00:09:56I have to live with you?
00:09:58I told you, the relationship has to appear real.
00:10:03Well, then Nico needs to live here, too.
00:10:06My brother can't be alone.
00:10:08All right.
00:10:11Now what?
00:10:13Why aren't you signing?
00:10:18I want you to meet him first.
00:10:21Well, send the car.
00:10:22No, no.
00:10:23I can't have him leave the house.
00:10:24Is he a kid or is he a dog?
00:10:27He's sick, Gideon.
00:10:29All right.
00:10:30Well, I don't leave the estate.
00:10:31So if you want me to meet him, you'll bring him here.
00:10:35Alice has told me a lot about you.
00:10:37You're lucky.
00:10:38She just told me she was dating you.
00:10:41Well, everything that I do has a way of ending up in the press.
00:10:44So I asked her to keep our romance quiet, I hope.
00:10:48Well, I hope you can forgive me.
00:10:50Yeah, I think I can forgive anyone with a house this big.
00:10:53Don't get too excited your heart.
00:11:00Karen, what are you doing here?
00:11:05Can't drop in to surprise my big brother?
00:11:08No, it's not a good time.
00:11:10I have guests.
00:11:12How was I supposed to know you've never had a guest?
00:11:16That's not true, Alice.
00:11:18This is my very funny brother, Karen.
00:11:21It's good to meet you.
00:11:22Jenny.
00:11:23Hi.
00:11:26And you are?
00:11:28Oh, I'm his girlfriend.
00:11:35Oh.
00:11:36So you two have been dating how long?
00:11:43I don't think it's been so long.
00:11:46I'm pretty sure I mentioned Alice to you.
00:11:50Pretty sure you did.
00:11:52No, I'm pretty sure I have.
00:11:54Hey, how about we take a walk outside, take a walk around the grounds?
00:11:59It's a beautiful day today.
00:12:04But you think that, like, maybe there would be enough more?
00:12:07I think everyone buys it.
00:12:11Do Karen and Jenny have kids?
00:12:12They've been trying for some years, but, I mean, it's a sensitive topic.
00:12:16It's hard to hear that.
00:12:18Somebody's got to carry on the Maslow name.
00:12:22I'll give it my best shot.
00:12:26Alice?
00:12:27No, I'm good.
00:12:28I'm good.
00:12:29Nico?
00:12:31Uh, 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.
00:12:58Oh, my God.
00:12:59I am so sorry.
00:13:00I, I, I, I, I, I think I just got a little overexcited.
00:13:03You got nothing to be sorry about.
00:13:04It's fine.
00:13:05I can keep walking.
00:13:06Absolutely not.
00:13:07We're going to the hospital.
00:13:08Hayden, are you going to be okay to drive?
00:13:09I told you he shouldn't have come here.
00:13:10Alice!
00:13:11Alice!
00:13:12It's good that he's getting some rest.
00:13:14What did the lab say?
00:13:15His condition is getting worse.
00:13:16We need to take a more aggressive approach with this treatment.
00:13:17He should stay in the hospital until he's strong enough for surgery.
00:13:18We need to take a more aggressive approach with this treatment.
00:13:19He should stay in the hospital until he's strong enough for surgery.
00:13:20Look.
00:13:21You need to be right back, man.
00:13:22It'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.
00:14:15I thought I'd never see you again.
00:14:17Do you have a pen?
00:14:21Helga will be overseeing your transition into the house.
00:14:29Welcome 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.
00:14:56You can have your run of the house.
00:14:58But that room is completely off limits.
00:15:02You understand?
00:15:04I do.
00:15:05Helga, help Alice get situated.
00:15:22I have to make a phone call.
00:15:23Of course, Mr. Maslow.
00:15:27Thanks for all your help.
00:15:28Of course, anything for Gideon.
00:15:30He 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.
00:15:53Please, feel free to call on me for anything that you need.
00:15:58I'll be nearby.
00:15:59All the time.
00:16:01Keeping an eye on you.
00:16:20I thought you'd be asleep.
00:16:23Restless, 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.
00:16:40Yeah, 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.
00:16:51Our appointment is tomorrow.
00:16:55Are you going to come with me?
00:16:57I sent my sample to the doctor already.
00:16:59So he's just going to insert it into you?
00:17:03How romantic.
00:17:03How was it?
00:17:04I'm just going to make you relatose.
00:17:07So I'm going to have to go with me.
00:17:12I don't know why it feels like I'm with you.
00:17:17I'm hoping I've been there for years.
00:17:22How's it going?
00:20:26I'm going to get more real life than that, babe.
00:20:30Looking good, isn't he?
00:20:31You've done great work.
00:20:33Well, I take tips.
00:20:36I'm a little strapped for cash at the moment.
00:20:38Saving up for a big surgery.
00:20:39Speaking 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.
00:21:03So Helga told me you went snooping.
00:21:07What a tattletale.
00:21:09What a tattletale.
00:21:13I gave you access to every other room in the house.
00:21:16You 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.
00:21:25She moves in with him, and he allows her access to every room in the house except for one.
00:21:30Sound familiar?
00:21:31So what?
00:21:33So, it turns out he had the corpses of six other wives stuffed in the room.
00:21:37You think I went through all this just to kill you?
00:21:41There's easier ways of doing that, and much more fun ones.
00:21:45Well, when you tell me something is off limits, I'm going to assume the worst.
00:21:49You are so stubborn.
00:21:51You did not disclose that in the contract before we signed it.
00:21:55Well, you're a secretive.
00:21:57You didn't mention that.
00:21:59And I don't think you're really 6'5".
00:22:00No, I'm 6'5".
00:22:03Come on, Gideon.
00:22:04You can trust me.
00:22:07Who is she, the woman in the painting?
00:22:11She's the reason why I won't trust you, or any other woman for that matter.
00:22:30Why won't you tell me who that woman is?
00:22:52Because I don't want to talk about other women.
00:22:53What does that mean?
00:23:03It means...
00:23:05I only want to think about you.
00:23:11My little dove.
00:23:13What the...
00:23:32What the...
00:23:33What the...
00:23:51What the hell...
00:23:54Hey.
00:23:57Hello.
00:23:58Crazy how we live in the same house,
00:24:00and I can still go days without seeing you.
00:24:02Big house.
00:24:04Gets lonely.
00:24:06Pancakes?
00:24:08Pancakes.
00:24:09Want some?
00:24:10No, I'm more of a waffle man.
00:24:12You know, there's more surface area for the syrup.
00:24:14Here, try one.
00:24:16It's good, I promise.
00:24:24It'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 it?
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.
00:24:54You think?
00:24:57Do you have a test?
00:25:09What's it say?
00:25:12Negative.
00:25:13Damn.
00:25:15I really thought it would work.
00:25:16I'll get a better doctor.
00:25:18You know, maybe we need to do an egg retrieval first,
00:25:21create an embryo, and 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.
00:25:37Yeah.
00:25:38No.
00:25:39Uh, me too.
00:25:41You know, there are other ways I could get pregnant that involves less needles and plastic cups and hospital gowns.
00:26:00Oh, yeah?
00:26:02Birds do it.
00:26:04Bees do it.
00:26:05I mean, why can't we do it?
00:26:13No, Alice, I'm not paying you to have sex with me.
00:26:16I know, but you are paying me to have a child with you, and this could really increase our chances.
00:26:22No, Alice, sex, it complicates things.
00:26:25Of course it does, when feelings are involved.
00:26:28But we are two business partners with a goal, and sex could be the solution.
00:26:33Aren't you a little bit curious?
00:26:38Yeah, I'm curious.
00:26:40I know you don't trust women or whatever, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't have any pleasure.
00:26:49And you must find me a little attractive.
00:26:51I mean, you 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.
00:27:03There'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 if I wasn't working or I was with Nico.
00:27:25So you haven't been on one date?
00:27:28Men have asked me out, yeah.
00:27:30But they didn't understand why I couldn't leave my brother.
00:27:33And I didn't want to bring strangers back to our apartment.
00:27:37Look, this is the first time in my life where 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, I can finally think about what I might want.
00:27:52What I might desire.
00:27:55So you were going to have my baby and 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?
00:28:19I, uh, I have to think.
00:28:33Hello, brother.
00:28:35It's unlike you to have me over on work day.
00:28:38I have a problem.
00:28:41Alice.
00:28:42Oh.
00:28:43A mystery girlfriend.
00:28:45Yeah, she's a, uh, a virgin.
00:28:52There's a twist.
00:28:56I'm very surprised.
00:28:58She's quite pretty.
00:29:01It'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, Ginny Mills was a virgin and he slept with her.
00:29:16So was I and we were 16.
00:29:19Let's take it slow.
00:29:20Right?
00:29:21Come on.
00:29:22Let's wine and diner.
00:29:24Ah, Gideon.
00:29:29You're going to have to behave like a gentleman.
00:29:31What will you do?
00:29:43Hey.
00:29:44Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:29:45What are you doing?
00:29:45No, I knew I shouldn't have told you.
00:29:47Just 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.
00:29:56Hey, please don't tell me what's going on in my own mind.
00:29:59Look me in the eyes and tell me you didn't change your opinion of me.
00:30:04No, 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.
00:30:10Alice?
00:30:12Just slow down, okay?
00:30:15Is that fair?
00:30:21Fair.
00:30:26How about I take you for a drink?
00:30:27I thought you don't leave the house.
00:30:35Secret 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?
00:30:52It's been a while since I've been on a date.
00:30:57I'm a bit rusty.
00:31:00So 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.
00:31:19Wild.
00:31:22There 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.
00:32:03But 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?
00:32:31No, I took it over from my father.
00:32:32I was supposed to be here.
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.
00:32:47But you don't really tell me anything.
00:32:51Well, when my parents died,
00:32:53I took over the estate.
00:32:56Are we sleeping in their bed?
00:32:59No.
00:32:59No.
00:32:59Absolutely not.
00:33:01Well, I mean, maybe the mattress pad.
00:33:03Oh.
00:33:04Very sexy.
00:33:05Oh, I didn't know I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:09Well, it would certainly help pass the time.
00:33:11Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:12Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:12Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:13Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:14Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:14Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:15Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:15Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:16Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:17Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:18Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:19Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:20Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:21Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:22Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:23Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:24Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:25Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:26Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:27Well, I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:28How was that?
00:33:56It didn't pass much time.
00:33:58Are you sure you want this one?
00:34:27I'm sure.
00:34:34There's no pressure.
00:34:35If you feel any kind of way, and if it hurts or anything...
00:34:37I can't think.
00:34:44I'll follow you, Lee.
00:34:45All right?
00:34:45You take control.
00:34:46Does that sound okay?
00:34:47I want you to take control.
00:34:51Good morning.
00:35:12Good morning.
00:35:13Oh.
00:35:14Hey.
00:35:15Good morning.
00:35:16You feeling okay?
00:35:18Yeah.
00:35:19That was good, right?
00:35:23Oh, yeah.
00:35:26It was really good.
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.
00:36:05I mean, our brother isn't exactly Columbo, and Jenny and Helga are harmless.
00:36:11Helga's coming?
00:36:13Yeah.
00:36:14She said she wanted to get to know you.
00:36:15She has it out for me.
00:36:16She has it out for me.
00:36:17It's one night.
00:36:18We can get through one night.
00:36:22Soup's almost ready.
00:36:28Just another few minutes.
00:36:29Thank you, Helga.
00:36:33It's nice to get some face time with you, Alice.
00:36:36I've been wanting to get to know you better.
00:36:38Well, you know what they say?
00:36:40You don't know someone until you see them eat.
00:36:44How do you eat, Alice?
00:36:49You want me to spoil the surprise?
00:36:51I'll tell you how I eat.
00:36:54Until I'm full.
00:36:57Can attest to that.
00:36:59So tell us, how did you and Gideon meet?
00:37:01And the questions begin before you even had our appetizers.
00:37:05It'll be another few minutes.
00:37:07What were you saying, Gideon, about how you two met?
00:37:10Well, dear, would you like me to or would you like to?
00:37:13Well, I just love the way you tell it.
00:37:15All right.
00:37:17Well, it's a very funny story, actually.
00:37:20We met at a charity event a few years ago,
00:37:23and then we happened to come across each other online a few months ago.
00:37:29What's funny about that?
00:37:31The way life works sometimes.
00:37:34Well, honey, you forgot the funniest part about how later that night you accidentally tripped me.
00:37:40Oh, and then she dropped her champagne glass.
00:37:43What event was it?
00:37:49Hmm?
00:37:50What charity event was it?
00:37:52The one for the opera.
00:37:56I remember this.
00:37:58I literally remember Gideon telling me that he tripped someone.
00:38:07Don't you remember, Kieran?
00:38:08I told you about this.
00:38:09You know, I just don't remember you in our circle.
00:38:14You don't seem like the type.
00:38:17Why?
00:38:18Am I not high-class enough?
00:38:23I didn't mean that.
00:38:24No, it's okay.
00:38:25I get it.
00:38:26I would be worried too if I thought someone was trying to take advantage of my family.
00:38:32I know you have a lot to protect and I don't come from a home like this.
00:38:37So you're right.
00:38:39I can't prove to you that I'm not some gold digger.
00:38:42All I can do is promise you that Gideon and I, we know the truth and we trust each other.
00:38:59You really are a special girl.
00:39:02I had my doubts, of course.
00:39:04I couldn't be sure of your intentions.
00:39:06Especially with the way you walked in that first day.
00:39:09Like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
00:39:11You 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.
00:39:23Pregnancy test?
00:39:28Were you going through my trash?
00:39:30Of course not, Alice.
00:39:32Be reasonable.
00:39:33I was cleaning up the mess you made in your bathroom and didn't know what I was looking at until it was too late.
00:39:39Are you trying to get pregnant?
00:39:40Of course not, Kieran.
00:39:41But accidents happen.
00:39:42We are trying.
00:39:47Gideon, you don't think it's a little rushed?
00:39:50Of course it's rushed.
00:39:51No, it's not.
00:39:53And how is that?
00:39:54Because we...
00:39:55It's okay.
00:39:56You can tell if I'm Gideon.
00:39:57I asked him to keep it a surprise, but...
00:39:58We're getting married.
00:39:59What?
00:40:00When is this happening?
00:40:01Um...
00:40:02Next week?
00:40:03And you're sure this is something you want to do?
00:40:07I'm positive.
00:40:08Well, in that case...
00:40:09Welcome to the family, Alice.
00:40:11Soup's on.
00:40:12Soup's on.
00:40:13You're calm, As you said,
00:40:15Hmm, what are you saying at the moment?
00:40:16It's so fun.
00:40:17It's so fun and we're going to take care of the family.
00:40:18We were even ready.
00:40:19I'm smiling, and I'm happy.
00:40:20And the family, how are you doing?
00:40:21Is that so cool?
00:40:22I'm, what are you, a good dude?
00:40:23You're ready.
00:40:24I'm proud of you.
00:40:25You're like, oh, no.
00:40:26How are you doing?
00:40:27I'm really happy.
00:40:28I'm back.
00:40:29How are you doing?
00:40:30Good.
00:40:31I'm not saying this is...
00:40:32You're ready.
00:40:33Well, in that case, welcome to the family, Alice.
00:40:40Soup's on.
00:40:44I'm sorry.
00:40:45I told everyone we're getting married.
00:40:47I panicked.
00:40:48Maybe we're going to find out sooner or later.
00:40:50You know, now we need to pull together a quick wedding.
00:40:53Sounds 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?
00:41:04How 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.
00:41:21I got to get prepared.
00:41:27You got to get a dress.
00:41:28I almost forgot.
00:41:37I almost forgot.
00:41:37Need help?
00:42:00I think I got it.
00:42:01Please, let me help.
00:42:03It's what I'm here for.
00:42:08Are you nervous?
00:42:10Why would I be nervous?
00:42:11It's your wedding day.
00:42:14Right.
00:42:14I'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.
00:42:25Both 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 got a surprise for you.
00:43:04I got a surprise for you.
00:43:07Congratulations.
00:43:16What 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.
00:43:25Hey.
00:43:26Hey.
00:43:27Hey.
00:43:31Think about how happy Mom and Dad would pay 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.
00:43:46I love that you're here, okay?
00:43:50But nothing is worth risking your health.
00:43:54You're all I got, you know that?
00:43:58Not anymore.
00:44:03You'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 through joy and sorrow, through sickness and health and whatever challenges you may face as long as you both shall live?
00:44:26I do.
00:44:27Do you, Gideon, take Alice to be your lawfully wedded wife, promising to love and cherish through joy and sorrow, sickness and health and whatever challenges you may face as long as you both shall live?
00:44:43I do.
00:44:45Would you please exchange rings?
00:44:48By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:45:10You may kiss the bride.
00:45:11You may kiss the bride.
00:45:41God, you are so beautiful.
00:45:47You have no idea how mad I am at you.
00:46:07You 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.
00:46:18Of course I've heard of boundaries.
00:46:21I just, I don't know, I thought you'd be more appreciative.
00:46:25How?
00:46:26You totally ignored what I said.
00:46:28Because it wasn't what you wanted.
00:46:30What I want is for Nico to be healthy for his surgery.
00:46:33You jeopardized his health.
00:46:35Do you know how big of a violation that is?
00:46:37It's fine.
00:46:39Kieran is driving him back as we speak.
00:46:41He's going to get plenty of rest for his procedure tomorrow.
00:46:44You're not his father.
00:46:44You're not his mother.
00:46:45He's going to get plenty of rest for her.
00:46:50Alice, I...
00:46:51No, I don't want to see you.
00:46:54I'm moving to another room to tell Helga whatever you want.
00:46:58Tell her we're fighting.
00:46:59No, Alice.
00:47:00Today's the day.
00:47:18First day of the rest of my life.
00:47:21Or the last, we'll see.
00:47:22God, I hate when you say stuff like that.
00:47:24I'm just joking, relax.
00:47:28It'll be fine.
00:47:31So where's your husband?
00:47:33You know, he doesn't leave the house much.
00:47:36Or at all, apparently.
00:47:38I was hoping he'd be with you.
00:47:41Well, 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.
00:48:00You left the house.
00:48:09It was getting stuffy in there.
00:48:10Gideon.
00:48:20You left the house.
00:48:22It was getting stuffy in there.
00:48:26What are you doing here?
00:48:28I just, I really want to be here with you.
00:48:40I'm a nervous wreck.
00:48:50He's going to be fine.
00:48:52You want to know how I know?
00:48:54How?
00:48:56Because I think he promised.
00:49:01I take these so seriously.
00:49:10Alice?
00:49:21Yes?
00:49:22How is Eve?
00:49:28Nico's surgery was a huge success.
00:49:32They'll bring him in here in just a moment.
00:49:33Okay.
00:49:35So everything went well?
00:49:36Better than we could have hoped for.
00:49:38We'll keep him for two more days,
00:49:40and then he'll be free to go home.
00:49:43Two days?
00:49:44Is that enough time?
00:49:45I want him to have around-the-clock medical care.
00:49:48What if there are complications?
00:49:49We don't foresee any complications.
00:49:52I mean, money's not going to be a concern.
00:49:54Whatever it takes is fine.
00:49:55Money's 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.
00:50:07No, but I mean, it's incredible.
00:50:14It's about extremes as a moment, right?
00:50:16What?
00:50:17Yes, that's what I'm saying.
00:50:18I don't think she's going to be here any longer.
00:50:35Gideon?
00:50:36What are you doing?
00:51:02I want this to be Nico's room.
00:51:04You don't have to do that.
00:51:08It's a big house.
00:51:09There are plenty of rooms.
00:51:11No.
00:51:12I'm ready to move on.
00:51:14To start over.
00:51:17Are you ready to tell me about her?
00:51:19Krista, she was quite the artist.
00:51:32Very 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.
00:51:41She knew I wanted an heir.
00:51:46She had me fall in love with her.
00:51:48All the while knowing that she didn't want to become a mother.
00:51:51Women have always lied.
00:51:56Even when I was a kid, they would lie just to come to see my house.
00:52:02And then as we grew up, it became more about the gifts and the vacations.
00:52:06My point is, I'm used to it.
00:52:11What made her different?
00:52:15She really had me fooled.
00:52:16You know, I had to pay her off just to never see her again.
00:52:27I was so angry.
00:52:32I didn't want to see anyone.
00:52:34And 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.
00:52:45You 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 going to 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.
00:53:04I think I believe you.
00:53:05I think I believe you.
00:53:15I think I believe you.
00:53:23I think I believe you.
00:55:24This is Brenda from Parkside Surrogacy Agency, returning your call.
00:55:27Brenda, that's strange. I didn't call you.
00:55:31Really? I wondered why we never heard from you.
00:55:35We're nearly ready to send you some options.
00:55:37No, I'm very pleased with the one that you referred.
00:55:44Mr. Maslow, we never referred anyone.
00:55:49What do you mean? I'm working with Alice Gardner.
00:55:51It was Alice Gardner.
00:55:53Is everything okay?
00:56:05I'm just going off the phone with Brenda, Parkside Surrogacy.
00:56:10Gideon.
00:56:10I thought you said that I can trust you. God, I almost believed you. All the while you've been lying to my face.
00:56:18Gideon, just let me explain.
00:56:19No, you are just like the rest of them. You know that you are... You're just like her.
00:56:25Okay, you're right. I'm no different than her. I lied to get close to you and I was only in it for the money.
00:56:30But somewhere along the way, things changed.
00:56:32Okay, I fell in love with you. Gideon, 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.
00:56:46But I thought that having a contract would finally take the complications out of everything, letting 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. You want to be a dad and to have a family.
00:57:02And deep down, you know that I don't want to leave when the money is paid.
00:57:06I want to stay and I want to have a family with you.
00:57:09You're not scared that it's fake.
00:57:12You're scared that it might actually be real this time.
00:57:16I feel sorry for you, Gideon.
00:57:19You have everything in this world.
00:57:22And you're going to end up with nothing.
00:57:28Oh, 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.
00:58:03But 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 give 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.
00:58:24It 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?
00:58:40Then 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.
00:59:38It's never simple with you, is it?
00:59:48I 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.
01:00:22Gideon, aside from the doctor that delivered you, I have 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?
01:01:12So 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.
01:02:52I want you forever.
01:02:58What is that?
01:03:08I felt a bit weird this morning, so I thought I'd check.
