Transcript

00:00:00Mr. Marco had a widow named Ava Jackson, and she was carrying his child.

00:00:07I'm gonna bring my daughter-in-law home, where she belongs.

00:00:12My brother, I will protect your legacy, and I will protect our family.

00:00:18Who are you, really?

00:00:21A mere day she has swung with our family out of millions of dollars.

00:00:26I've wanted Luka for years, and then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks.

00:00:31If I can't have him, I'll destroy him now.

00:00:35Your life belongs to us.

00:00:38Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.

00:00:43From this moment forward, I swear to you, nobody will ever hurt you again.

00:00:49I guess my brother had good reason to fall for her.

00:00:56Ava, you're so close, is this a dream?

00:01:02If anyone sees us like this, they'll immediately assume the worst.

00:01:07Ava, I have fallen in love with you.

00:01:10I'm your brother's wife.

00:01:12We didn't do anything wrong, so why are you worried?

00:01:14If you knew I had feelings for your brother, would you hate me?

00:01:18I should never have let you go undercover on that damn business deal.

00:01:36I never even got to say goodbye.

00:01:38Marco, my brother, I will protect your legacy.

00:01:42And I will protect our family.

00:01:50Hey, hey!

00:01:51Who are you?

00:01:52Which family do you work for?

00:01:54I just came to drop off the flowers.

00:01:56I didn't mean to retreat.

00:01:57Luka, look at her.

00:01:59She's hardly a threat.

00:02:00For the flowers.

00:02:01And for the interruption.

00:02:02My apologies.

00:02:06Senor Mancini.

00:02:07Mr. Marco had a widow named Ava Jackson.

00:02:08And she was carrying his child.

00:02:09Get the car.

00:02:10Let me bring my daughter-in-law home.

00:02:11Where she belongs.

00:02:12Let me bring my daughter-in-law home.

00:02:13Where she belongs.

00:02:14Oh, no, no, no!

00:02:16What's your fault?

00:02:17No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:02:18I'm just six.

00:02:18Now you go.

00:02:19I'm sorry.

00:02:20Let me bring your daughter-in-law home.

00:02:21No, no, no, no.

00:02:22I'mateurs.

00:02:23Mr. Marco had a widow named Ava Jackson.

00:02:26And she was carrying his child.

00:02:28Get the car.

00:02:31Let me bring my daughter-in-law home.

00:02:34Where she belongs.

00:02:42Don't worry little one. We'll get through this together. Somehow.

00:02:52Well looky here. Family Jinx is finally six feet under.

00:03:05Derek! Have you lost your mind? What the hell was that?

00:03:09Don't tell me that you're actually planning on keeping that little parasite.

00:03:14This is Marco's baby. This is our child. Of course I'm keeping it.

00:03:20Ever since you got knocked up, you've done nothing to help this family.

00:03:25We've been struggling while you've been out here playing the grieving widow.

00:03:29Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.

00:03:33Because you owe me. This is your fault.

00:03:40I dropped out of college for this family. I took five jobs. What more could you possibly want?

00:03:45It'll never be enough, Ava. You'll owe us till the day you die.

00:03:50Please. Sweetheart. Think of your brother.

00:03:58I'm gonna stomp out that little bastard right now.

00:04:01Send him straight to hell. So he can say hello to his deadbeat dad.

00:04:05I'd be dead.

00:04:08Hex!

00:04:09Hex!

00:04:14Hex!

00:04:27What? What the hell is going on here? Who the hell are you people?

00:04:29hell are you people? Ava, right? You were here this morning. Enough, Luca. She's hardly

00:04:37up to that. Ma'am? I'm Helena Mancini, Marco's mother. That means I'm your baby's grandmother.

00:04:51The most powerful mafia family in the country. Marco was my oldest. He was my golden boy.

00:05:00I am so sorry that he concealed his identity from you. You have endured far too much suffering

00:05:08because of it. Plain make-believe Mancini? Seriously, like is anybody here actually buying

00:05:17this? Question my identity again, and my men will make sure your other leg looks like

00:05:23your first one. Permanently. What are you doing? Derek, run! Maybe we should just go. One moment

00:05:34here. Anyone who raises a hand to my daughter-in-law deserves to have their fingers snapped. One

00:05:42two-by-one. Come along, my dear. Let's get you home. To your real home.

00:06:12Welcome home, Signora Ava Mancini. This is where Marco lived. And now, it's your hand.

00:06:28Allow me to introduce you to your personal staff, Mrs. Mancini. Your nutritionist, nanny, maternity

00:06:36nurse, each the finest specialist money can acquire. We pledge your absolute dedication to

00:06:40your health and well-being, Signora Ava Mancini. Your days of working multiple jobs are over,

00:06:48my dear. Ten million dollars is a little spending money. Well, thank you, but I can't accept this.

00:06:57I married Marco for love, not for his fortune. Practical and principled, my Marco truly had an eye

00:07:05eye for quality. There is one more member of the family that you need to properly meet.

00:07:12That would be Luca, Marco's younger brother. The brooding iceberg that you encountered this

00:07:17morning. Well, well, well. It's a flower girl from the cemetery. Luca, come meet Ava, your brother's

00:07:26wife. Please show her proper respect. You walk back into a Mancini household. You're either

00:07:38incredibly stupid or incredibly brave. Luca, open this door immediately. Everyone around back now.

00:07:50Who are you really? I'll be watching your every move, your every breath. So tell me, who are you really?

00:08:05My brother's dead and you appear suddenly? Was this your end game all along? Our fortune?

00:08:11I didn't know. Marco's a Mancini. And now? I don't need this. I can walk right out those doors.

00:08:17You can't walk anywhere. She's not going anywhere. And get your hands off of her. She is carrying Marco's child.

00:08:28Oh, is she? How do we even know it is Marco's child? Convenient timing, wouldn't you say?

00:08:34Question me on you, Marco. Don't you dare question my child.

00:08:40That's my girl. Backbone of steel. Are you hurt?

00:08:46Luca, you are too rude. Ava is a good girl. You are falsely accusing her.

00:08:53Come on, sweetie. Mom's going to take you and get some clothes. Pay no attention to this fool.

00:08:58You may be fooling them, but I will find out about you and I will expose you.

00:09:23These are all the latest European styles. Take your pick.

00:09:27I have plenty to wear. And these are much too expensive.

00:09:31Oh, not to worry. It's all on Luca's card. Treat my dear daughter-in-law well.

00:09:57I'm trying to be open and honest. This weight on my chest, I don't want it. I'd hate to be breaking, I promise. Cause I owe you the truth that I...

00:10:13Oh, isn't she gorgeous.

00:10:19She's... adequate.

00:10:24Always the tough guy act with you. Your eyes tell a different story, my son.

00:10:30Oh yes, this is just perfect. We will take one of everything in her size.

00:10:36Mom? Mom? That's too generous.

00:10:43Nonsense. We're family now.

00:10:46I am putting Luca's contact info into your phone.

00:10:50Reach out to him. Whatever you need. And don't worry. He's actually quite a softy.

00:10:57Now, shall we continue shopping?

00:11:01Yes.

00:11:05Sir.

00:11:06Yes.

00:11:07Your mother has spent approximately 15 million dollars on Miss Jackson in the last week alone.

00:11:13God.

00:11:14In mere days, she has swooned the dollar family out of millions of dollars.

00:11:19She's clearly not an amateur.

00:11:21She's also been spending a substantial amount since marrying your brother to pay off her brother's debts.

00:11:27I want everything on her.

00:11:30Everything!

00:11:31If she is playing us for fools, then I will personally ensure that she regrets ever hearing the name Mancino.

00:11:37Mancino.

00:11:45I'm sorry, ma'am.

00:11:47I hate to put extra stress on your shoulders, but we need to discuss the incredible cost of your husband's care.

00:11:55And how the bill will be paid.

00:11:57Limited edition is perfect for you.

00:12:00Michael, you just focus on getting better, okay?

00:12:08Don't worry about the bills. I've got it covered.

00:12:19Your brother married Miss Jackson under false pretenses.

00:12:22She worked several jobs to make that money.

00:12:25And when your brother got sick, she worked to pay off his medical bills.

00:12:29And then day and night for his funeral.

00:12:32Did I get her all wrong?

00:12:45Hello?

00:12:46Mother is unwell.

00:12:47You need to return home immediately.

00:12:52What's wrong with Mom?

00:12:53Is...

00:12:54Is she hurt?

00:12:58Mom?

00:13:00What's going on?

00:13:06Ava.

00:13:08Please don't be angry.

00:13:10We just had to get you here.

00:13:16What are you doing?

00:13:17Since you won't help us financially, we had to find another solution.

00:13:21Victor Fang.

00:13:22That old Lone Shark's willing to give us $80,000 just to marry you.

00:13:31Are you insane?

00:13:34I'm pregnant!

00:13:36Your husband's dead, Ava.

00:13:38Why keep his baby?

00:13:39Think about your family.

00:13:40Mr. Fang is waiting.

00:13:42Don't make this harder than it needs to be.

00:13:45You are not selling me off to Victor Fang!

00:13:48If she dies, how will you provide for this child?

00:13:56She's calling someone!

00:13:57Hello?

00:13:59Ava's in danger! We need to move! Go, go, go!

00:14:01Ava's in danger! We need to move! Go, go, go!

00:14:02Ava's in danger! We need to move! Go, go, go!

00:14:12Ava's in danger! We need to move! Go, go, go!

00:14:13Ava's in danger! We need to move! Go, go, go!

00:14:14Ava's in danger!

00:14:16Ava be tapped into burp!

00:14:17You think someone's coming to save you?

00:14:24Ava's in danger!

00:14:29Ava's in danger,20 and all.

00:14:30He's knocked out,20 and all.

00:14:31I gotta zuerstoute out!

00:14:33You think someone's coming to save you?!

00:14:35Who dares manhandle my future bride?

00:14:43Mr. Fang, it's such a pleasure.

00:14:46This is Ava, my sister, who we discussed.

00:14:49Ooh, two for the price of one, I see.

00:14:52Oh, it's just some dead guy's kid.

00:14:54If you want, I can take care of it right now.

00:14:56We can offer you a discount.

00:14:58I think $60,000 is more than fair.

00:15:00Pennies for somebody of your wealth.

00:15:02Derek, you're sick.

00:15:03I'm your sister.

00:15:04This is your nephew.

00:15:05My son's future is more important to me

00:15:08than that stupid little bastard of yours.

00:15:10Hey, hey, no need to be so rough with such a beautiful lady.

00:15:16Now, dear, just take this right here

00:15:19and it'll make things easier for everybody.

00:15:22Oh, okay.

00:15:25A little feisty, I see.

00:15:28Maybe you just need a little personal attention.

00:15:31Get out of my way!

00:15:57See, I always knew Ava was trouble.

00:15:59Her husband's barely cold and she already has been out of here.

00:16:03Who the hell do you think you are?

00:16:08I'm looking at Mancini.

00:16:09Mancini, you idiot.

00:16:12You killed me.

00:16:13How did my sister get caught up with the likes of you?

00:16:15Ava is my brother's widow.

00:16:17And her baby is his only child.

00:16:21So it's true?

00:16:22Her baby's the heir to the Mancini family?

00:16:25Looks like your wife is pregnant too.

00:16:27Yes, yes, yes, yes, it's true.

00:16:30I swear, we didn't know.

00:16:31Please, please.

00:16:33You will be dealt with

00:16:34tenfold

00:16:35what you did to Ava.

00:16:40Get a doctor!

00:16:41Get a doctor!

00:16:42Get a car and deal with him.

00:16:43Get a car and deal with him.

00:17:13Mom, hey.

00:17:23How's Ava?

00:17:24How's the baby?

00:17:25The doctors are examining her now.

00:17:31Doctor, how is she?

00:17:33Mrs. Mancini has a severe ankle fracture

00:17:35that it needs immediate surgery.

00:17:37The medication could cause a miscarriage.

00:17:40So we need to have consent before we can proceed.

00:17:44Do it. Whatever it takes.

00:17:45No!

00:17:49Doctor, is there any way to do the surgery without anesthesia?

00:17:53That's not medically advisable.

00:17:55The pain would be too excruciating.

00:17:59This baby is Marco's only child. His only heir.

00:18:03I can't risk losing it.

00:18:06I can handle the pain.

00:18:08Oh, my brave girl.

00:18:11God bless you.

00:18:13You know, I think somebody should be with her during the operation.

00:18:16The pain would be just too intense.

00:18:19I'll stay with her.

00:18:20How'd it go, doctor?

00:18:44It's a success.

00:18:47You're a real trooper if you don't mind me saying.

00:18:50I guess my brother had good reason to fall for her.

00:18:54Senora Ava, please, let me help you.

00:19:15Okay, right this way, I'm right.

00:19:21I know your stay at the hospital could not have been easy for you.

00:19:29And that's why I'm having 30% of Mancini Group shares put into your name.

00:19:35No.

00:19:36Mom, I cannot accept that.

00:19:40We're family.

00:19:42It's what you deserve.

00:19:44Actually, I've been thinking about doing something else.

00:19:48I'd like to go back to work.

00:19:51Work?

00:19:53But, but, you're pregnant.

00:19:55Oh, honey, if you need money, I'll just transfer some into your account.

00:19:57No, no, it's not about money.

00:20:00Marco always said that we should make our own way.

00:20:04And I want our child to know his father and know what he valued.

00:20:13You are as stubborn as he was.

00:20:17Look, you're going to need protection.

00:20:20You'll accompany her.

00:20:24No, no, no, no, no.

00:20:25I can manage on my own.

00:20:30In the morning, 10 a.m., I'll be at the entrance.

00:20:34You know that I can talk to your manager for you.

00:20:45Make sure that they accommodate every need.

00:20:47No need.

00:20:48I don't want any special treatments.

00:20:50But, thank you for that ride.

00:20:54You know, Ava, you do not need to be afraid of me.

00:20:58I can help you.

00:20:59Whenever you need.

00:21:04Why is she even back?

00:21:21That pregnant belly ruins the store's aesthetic.

00:21:23These pregnant women know exactly what they're doing.

00:21:26Hiding behind maternity protections.

00:21:28We can't legally fire her.

00:21:30Could you reassign her to the warehouse?

00:21:33Maybe move some stock around?

00:21:34And if something happens to her or the baby,

00:21:36you want that liability?

00:21:39We can't fire her,

00:21:41but we certainly can make her life difficult enough

00:21:43that she decides to quit on her own.

00:21:45And that concludes our quarterly revenue projections.

00:22:07Sir, forgive my directness,

00:22:13but are we here because you're concerned about your sister-in-law?

00:22:22Should I have the car brought around for your next meeting?

00:22:26Can I answer the meeting?

00:22:27I've been meaning to talk to you.

00:22:33Given your, um, condition,

00:22:36I've been worried about potential liability issues.

00:22:39My pregnancy will not affect my performance.

00:22:42I do not intend to take advantage of company policy.

00:22:45Oh, glad to hear that.

00:22:49Then you won't mind proving your commitment.

00:22:51Sell one million dollars worth of merchandise by today,

00:22:55and I'll put all of my concerns to rest.

00:22:57I've seen your sales record.

00:23:00I know you can do it.

00:23:25Sir, half an hour until closing,

00:23:43and Mrs. Mancini has already surpassed

00:23:46the store's average monthly sales in a single day.

00:23:49But she's still a great deal short

00:23:51of the manager's impossible target.

00:23:53She did make it clear

00:23:58that she doesn't want any special treatment,

00:24:00but I have been neglecting my own wardrobe.

00:24:03And the Rossi family event

00:24:04will require several new suits.

00:24:06Now that you mention it, sir,

00:24:08your formal collection is missing

00:24:09quite a few essential items.

00:24:12And I should do some personal shopping,

00:24:14shouldn't I?

00:24:19Oh, sir, may I assist you?

00:24:20Sir, this limited edition silk tie

00:24:24would go perfect with your complexion.

00:24:25Sir, I'd be happy to take your measurements,

00:24:28personally.

00:24:29Sir, as store manager,

00:24:31I would be honored to assist you

00:24:33with your needs myself.

00:24:35I'd actually like Miss Jackson to assist me.

00:24:38I hear her taste in men's fashion is exceptional.

00:24:41Shall we begin?

00:24:47Right this way, sir.

00:24:54All right, I just need to take your measurements.

00:24:57Whoa, what are you doing?

00:25:00Your measurements are good.

00:25:02I just needed you to take the jacket off.

00:25:05Well, we don't have much time.

00:25:07Now, imagine me like this.

00:25:26Okay.

00:25:27Mm-hmm.

00:25:28Ava, time is almost up.

00:25:52I did it.

00:26:11I saved my job,

00:26:12and I made a new sales record.

00:26:16There's no reason to thank me.

00:26:18I'm here to help.

00:26:19Whenever you need it.

00:26:20I hate to do this,

00:26:24but Ava Jackson,

00:26:27you're fired.

00:26:29What?

00:26:31No.

00:26:32I met your target,

00:26:34and then some.

00:26:34Oh.

00:26:35That last sale?

00:26:37The one that put you over the top?

00:26:38That was actually mine.

00:26:40You're trying to steal my commission?

00:26:42Well, that won't work,

00:26:43because everyone in this store

00:26:45saw me make that sale.

00:26:46Okay.

00:26:50I get it.

00:26:53You threaten them into silence.

00:26:54Well, that won't work either,

00:26:56because the security cameras

00:26:57caught everything.

00:26:59Security cameras?

00:27:01What horrible timing.

00:27:10Unfortunately,

00:27:12the security cameras

00:27:12are down for maintenance today.

00:27:15But fortunately,

00:27:16everyone here

00:27:17saw you destroy

00:27:18thousands of dollars

00:27:20worth of merchandise.

00:27:21You all saw Ava,

00:27:22didn't you?

00:27:24Yeah,

00:27:24we all saw it.

00:27:26So someone should call security.

00:27:28Better yet,

00:27:29call the police.

00:27:30I'm sorry, sir,

00:27:39but we're closed for the day.

00:27:41I heard that this store

00:27:41got trashed.

00:27:42I'm going to have to ask you to leave,

00:27:44or I'm going to have to call the police.

00:27:45The police work for me.

00:27:48Are you?

00:27:49Luca Mancini?

00:27:56Is it me?

00:27:56I'm going to have to ask you to leave.

00:28:26Please stop.

00:28:45I admit it.

00:28:46I was wrong.

00:28:47Who really damaged

00:28:47the merchandise in this store?

00:28:49The items they you destroyed

00:28:50are worth over several millions of dollars.

00:28:52That's five years in prison.

00:28:56Luca, what happened?

00:28:59There's nothing we're talking about.

00:29:00We need to go.

00:29:01And by the way,

00:29:01you're fired.

00:29:03Let's go.

00:29:04Mom could just do it.

00:29:09How dare that woman

00:29:13mess with my family.

00:29:15I will make sure

00:29:17personally

00:29:17that she suffers for it.

00:29:19You don't have to worry

00:29:20about that anymore.

00:29:22It's all taken care of,

00:29:23thanks to Luca.

00:29:24The store looked like

00:29:25a tornado hit it.

00:29:26Man who will be serving time

00:29:27in a jail cell.

00:29:29Justice is served.

00:29:31That's my boy.

00:29:35Sweetheart,

00:29:36I would like you

00:29:37to concentrate full-time

00:29:38on your pregnancy right now.

00:29:40All of this work drama

00:29:41can wait until after

00:29:43my grandchild

00:29:44is born safely.

00:29:45Yes, Mommy.

00:29:46I transferred five million dollars

00:29:49into your personal account

00:29:50for prenatal care.

00:29:52I am worried

00:29:53about the baby's well-being.

00:29:56Luca,

00:29:57I'd like you to take her

00:29:58to the doctor tomorrow

00:29:59for an exam.

00:30:01No.

00:30:01That's really not necessary.

00:30:06I have those meetings

00:30:08in Europe,

00:30:09so possibly I could

00:30:09have some more

00:30:10substituting.

00:30:10I'm perfectly capable

00:30:12of going by myself.

00:30:14I don't want to

00:30:16travel to go

00:30:18with something so routine.

00:30:20It's decided.

00:30:22Cancel whatever meetings

00:30:23you have.

00:30:24I want you to take her.

00:30:26I will not stand

00:30:27for any more incidents.

00:30:29Yes, Mother.

00:30:30No.

00:30:31No.

00:30:32No.

00:30:33No.

00:30:34No.

00:30:35No.

00:30:36No.

00:30:37No.

00:30:38No.

00:30:39No.

00:30:40No.

00:30:44Ava Jackson,

00:30:45we're ready for you now.

00:30:46Dad should come too.

00:30:48We encourage partner participation.

00:30:50Oh, no.

00:30:52He's not.

00:30:53Would you prefer that I explain

00:30:58that I'm your dead husband's brother?

00:31:00That might be a bit awkward.

00:31:01Mr. and Mrs. Jackson,

00:31:03please come in when you're ready.

00:31:04Coming.

00:31:10If you could lift your top up slightly and lower your skirt band just a bit we'll get started.

00:31:25First prenatal checkup together I'm guessing.

00:31:33The baby looks perfectly healthy.

00:31:36The current length is about three inches with a strong heart rate.

00:31:41Is the baby moving?

00:31:42Yes indeed.

00:31:44Look there.

00:31:46The little one's making faces.

00:31:49Quite the expressive child already.

00:31:56Dad, don't you want to come take a look?

00:32:00The baby's at 18 weeks now developing beautifully.

00:32:09For home care I recommend plenty of rest, nutrient rich foods, and tactile bonding when possible.

00:32:19Tactile bonding?

00:32:20Yes.

00:32:21It's quite beneficial for fetal development.

00:32:24Come over here and place your hands on her belly.

00:32:27Doctor, is that really appropriate?

00:32:31What's inappropriate about it?

00:32:33This is what husbands do.

00:32:34Okay.

00:32:35I'm sorry.

00:32:36Did I hurt you?

00:32:37No, no.

00:32:38It just feels strange.

00:32:39Like this.

00:32:40Top to bottom.

00:32:41Left to right.

00:32:42Gentle strokes.

00:32:43Got it?

00:32:44Got it.

00:32:45Got it.

00:32:46Do this once daily.

00:32:47Five to ten.

00:32:48I'm sorry tonight.

00:32:49Did I hurt you?

00:32:50No, no.

00:32:51It just feels strange.

00:32:52Like this.

00:32:53Top to bottom.

00:32:54Left to right.

00:32:55Gentle strokes.

00:32:56Got it?

00:32:57Got it.

00:32:58Got it.

00:32:59Do this once daily.

00:33:13Five to ten minutes each.

00:33:14You can sit up now.

00:33:17Ah.

00:33:20So everything good with the baby?

00:36:52Just don't want you to fall.

00:37:08Who's that with Mr. Mancini?

00:37:11She's clearly pregnant.

00:37:13Do you think that's Mr. Mancini's baby?

00:37:15I had no idea he was even married.

00:37:16Must be his mistress.

00:37:18I'll show us.

00:37:19Everyone, I would like to introduce Ava Mancini.

00:37:24My eldest son, Marco's wife.

00:37:26Marco's wife?

00:37:27She's stunning.

00:37:31This is my birthday party.

00:37:33I'm supposed to be the center of attention, not some pregnant woman.

00:37:39Well, maybe we shouldn't cross a scene here.

00:37:42It's fine.

00:37:43She's always like this.

00:37:44We didn't mean to steal your spotlight.

00:37:49An apology simply isn't enough.

00:37:52Since you're Luca's sister-in-law,

00:37:54why don't you entertain us all with a performance of some kind?

00:37:58Look, she used to deliver food for a living.

00:38:01Waitress, retail clerk, cleaning lady?

00:38:03What could someone with her background possibly perform for this grab?

00:38:18Ava, how does this piece go again?

00:38:21I'm completely lost here.

00:38:22I've forgotten everything that you've told me.

00:38:24There's no way she could actually play.

00:38:27She's just a nobody from nowhere.

00:38:29He has to be setting her up.

00:38:31Even Miss Mancini is smiling,

00:38:33just waiting for her to crash and burn.

00:38:35I was just playing for the baby.

00:38:56I think he recognized the music you were playing for us earlier.

00:39:02Well, maybe you should teach me sometime properly.

00:39:06I'd like to play for you both.

00:39:11Because Mom did tell me to look after you,

00:39:13so it's the least that I can do.

00:39:15One chair and there.

00:39:45They're definitely more than in-laws.

00:40:06Look at the way they play together.

00:40:08If I can't have him,

00:40:11I'll destroy them both.

00:40:15Yeah, I always enjoy these type of events.

00:40:20Me too.

00:40:21That's how it's good.

00:40:22From Miss Rossi.

00:40:24The accompaniments.

00:40:25Cheers.

00:40:30Sir, that drink is almost certainly drugged.

00:40:33Obviously.

00:40:34Is the Rossi family making a move against us?

00:40:36These tensions have been simmering for years.

00:40:39Should we respond preemptively?

00:40:40Do nothing.

00:40:46You just need to focus on protecting Ava.

00:40:49We'll see what they have planned.

00:40:57Darling, you look tired.

00:41:00I don't think all this excitement is good for your condition.

00:41:03Why don't you try to find Luca and let's get you home.

00:41:05I don't think all this急 is going home.

00:41:07I don't know.

00:41:08I don't think all this tiempo.

00:41:09Come on.

00:41:31Sophia's bedroom?

00:41:32Why is Luca's phone in there?

00:41:35And why am I jealous?

00:41:53I've wanted Luca for years.

00:41:55And then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks?

00:42:01You won't look so innocent when everyone sees you in bed next to your dead husband's brother.

00:42:07This isn't exactly how you wanted it.

00:42:09Not at all.

00:42:10This isn't convincing.

00:42:12Unbutton their clothes.

00:42:20Sal, position them closer together.

00:42:22Make it look more intimate.

00:42:29Perfect.

00:42:30Let's go.

00:42:30Our masterpiece is complete.

00:42:32Now we just have to bring in an audience.

00:42:44I expected much more than just this juvenile prank from my business partner.

00:42:48Ava, wake up.

00:43:02Ava.

00:43:03Oh, my God.

00:43:19What happened to us?

00:43:25This is bad.

00:43:26If anyone sees us like this, they'll immediately assume the worst.

00:43:43Luca, wake up.

00:43:49Okay.

00:43:49People are coming.

00:43:58You're acting like we had some tort affair.

00:44:00We didn't do anything wrong, so why are you worrying?

00:44:02I'm your late brother's widow, and I'm carrying his child.

00:44:06If anyone sees us like this, the Mancini family name won't be destroyed.

00:44:10Okay.

00:44:11Okay.

00:44:12Oh, so Mancini name is what you're concerned about.

00:44:16Is that it?

00:44:18Hey, hey, hey, hey.

00:44:19You haven't answered me.

00:44:24Thank you all so much for coming today to celebrate me.

00:44:28But I do have some rather important information to share with you all.

00:44:33I have just discovered Luca Mancini in a rather compromising position with his brother's pregnant widow.

00:44:43In my bedroom.

00:44:52Can you let go?

00:44:53They're coming.

00:44:57Come on.

00:45:01Here, I got the switch out.

00:45:03Wait, stop.

00:45:04Watch, they're right there.

00:45:05If we walk through that door, we'll walk right into their trap.

00:45:08Okay, then what's your brilliant idea?

00:45:10Yes, ma'am.

00:45:11Um, we...

00:45:12Let's go through the window.

00:45:14We can climb down.

00:45:15Whoa, whoa, whoa, no.

00:45:16No, no, I'm afraid of heights.

00:45:18You're what?

00:45:21Sorry.

00:45:22I just didn't realize the great Luca Mancini have fears like the rest of us.

00:45:26Yeah, you know, that's one of my fears, and I don't advertise it, so deal with it.

00:45:32What the hell's do?

00:45:35Lucy, who are these cheaters you promised to expose?

00:45:38Shh, keep it down, you idiot.

00:45:40You don't want to wake them.

00:45:41I mean, we don't want to alert them to give them a chance to escape.

00:45:46They're coming.

00:45:46Let's go.

00:45:49Okay.

00:45:50Hurry, hurry.

00:45:50No, no, no, no, don't run.

00:45:56We have to catch them in the act first.

00:45:57Are you insane?

00:45:58Your house is on fire.

00:46:00Who cares about the gossip?

00:46:02Let's get out of here.

00:46:02No, no, no, no, no.

00:46:03I'll help everyone leave afterwards, but first let's get a look at them.

00:46:06Come on.

00:46:06What the hell do you think you're doing?

00:46:19What the hell do you think you're doing?

00:46:31I am so sorry.

00:46:33It was an accident.

00:46:34Please.

00:46:36You okay?

00:46:36Yeah.

00:46:39The staff prepared everything for you, and there's hot water in there.

00:46:46And what about you?

00:46:48We'll just be out here, taking guard for you.

00:46:51Now go on.

00:46:53It's warm.

00:46:55Thanks.

00:46:56Damn it.

00:47:25What is it?

00:47:30Miss Rossi is demanding to see you, sir.

00:47:32She's quite insistent.

00:47:34Okay.

00:47:35Let her run.

00:47:39You set off the fire alarms and completely scared away my guests.

00:47:43You ruined my birthday celebration.

00:47:44Hey, you will take full responsibility for what you did.

00:47:59The drugging, the setup, all of it.

00:48:02And if you ever threaten Ava again, directly or indirectly, I will end the Rossi family from

00:48:09this city permanently.

00:48:10You're a monster.

00:48:12That's her in there, isn't it?

00:48:13Ava?

00:48:14Your dead brother's wife?

00:48:16How dare you?

00:48:17I quit.

00:48:18Get your hands off of me.

00:48:20Do you know who I am?

00:48:21Luca?

00:48:27Oh.

00:48:37Luca?

00:48:38Luca, it's me, wake up.

00:48:51Eva, you're so close.

00:48:53Is this a dream?

00:49:00Luca, I'm your brother's wife.

00:49:03So this isn't a dream.

00:49:05I, um, Eva, I've had feelings for you for so long.

00:49:12And I've tried to keep them a secret, but I, I, I can't keep them any longer.

00:49:17And now you know my two secrets and by family code, I have to silence the person who discovers my weaknesses.

00:49:28Luca, let me go.

00:49:29No, no, no, but I can't silence you because, Eva, I have fallen in love with you.

00:49:35Oh, God, that's not funny.

00:49:38Look, I've never been more serious.

00:49:42Look, Eva, every time I come around you, I, I feel myself slipping.

00:49:49And my feelings have crossed that line months ago.

00:49:51Stop, stop, just stop.

00:49:57I'll forget this ever happened.

00:49:58No, Eva.

00:50:00I want to take care of you.

00:50:03And the baby.

00:50:04For the rest of my life.

00:50:14Luca.

00:50:14Hi.

00:50:15I love you.

00:50:17I love you.

00:50:18Luca, what's going on?

00:50:22Why isn't Eva home?

00:50:26What's going on here?

00:50:27Mom, I think...

00:50:28Nothing.

00:50:30My clothes were dirty, so Luca prepared for me a shower and clean clothes.

00:50:35Oh, thank goodness.

00:50:38The last thing we need is for you to catch pneumonia.

00:50:40Yeah, I know.

00:50:42Eva, I think that we should probably...

00:50:44Luca, it's almost Marco's birthday.

00:50:50Let's visit his grave.

00:50:53He's your brother and my husband.

00:50:56And we don't want to betray his memory.

00:51:00Oh, you poor thing.

00:51:01You must be utterly exhausted.

00:51:03Let's get you home.

00:51:05These Rossis are nothing but trouble.

00:51:07We need to accelerate our plans against them.

00:51:10Changing hearts.

00:51:13Changing hearts.

00:51:17Changing hearts.

00:51:20Marco.

00:51:23I miss you.

00:51:28I feel so lost without you.

00:51:34Would you hate me?

00:51:35If you knew I had feelings for your brother.

00:51:43Eva, are you in there?

00:51:52Eva, are you there?

00:51:55I meant everything that I said today.

00:51:59And I want to help you get through this.

00:52:00And I want to protect you.

00:52:02Marco and mom, they would both understand.

00:52:08Eva, I love you.

00:52:11I love you.

00:52:24I understand how difficult this is.

00:52:27And your loyalty for Marco and your concern for my mother.

00:52:32That is the compassion that...

00:52:34That's the reason I fell in love with you.

00:52:40There's $30 million on this credit card.

00:52:43And the pin number is your birthday.

00:52:45Been through webs and flows.

00:52:47And this goodbye felt like the end.

00:52:50Can't deny I can pretend.

00:52:53Is that this fire burns again.

00:52:57Illuminating rain.

00:53:00I feel alive.

00:53:02One more time our worlds collide.

00:53:05Watch them circling in the sky.

00:55:45Hello?

00:55:46Ava?

00:55:47I'm outside at the gate.

00:55:49Security won't let me in.

00:55:56Mom, what are you doing here?

00:55:57I missed you terribly, sweetheart.

00:55:59I just wanted to check on you and the baby.

00:56:06Look, fresh oranges, just picked today.

00:56:10You need the vitamin C for the baby's development.

00:56:13I'm on a very carefully monitored diet.

00:56:17You wasted a trip.

00:56:21Look, I know that you haven't forgiven me, but you have to understand.

00:56:27Derek and Sarah, I mean, they would have thrown me out on the street if I didn't go along with them.

00:56:33I mean, what choice did I have?

00:56:36That's not rehash the past.

00:56:38Of course.

00:56:40I picked these up for my grandchild.

00:56:43Aren't they precious?

00:56:46That baby that you're carrying is my family, too.

00:56:51I love them so much already.

00:56:53Look, I stood up for you to Derek, and he threw me out.

00:56:58I had absolutely nothing left.

00:57:10This card contains all the money I've saved.

00:57:12It's yours.

00:57:14But you have to promise me that you'll use it for yourself.

00:57:17Not a penny goes to Derek.

00:57:19Okay.

00:57:20I swear it.

00:57:21Not a cent to him.

00:57:22How much money are we talking about?

00:57:25$10,000.

00:57:27$10,000?

00:57:30That's it.

00:57:31You're carrying the Mancini air, and all they've given you is $10,000.

00:57:35That is my personal savings.

00:57:39I haven't asked the Mancini's for a cent.

00:57:41Okay, this is completely unacceptable!

00:57:44Everyone in this city knows that the Mancini's are loaded beyond belief.

00:57:50Come on!

00:57:51You need to milk this situation for all it's worth.

00:57:59Honey, I'm...

00:58:02I'm only thinking about your future and your security.

00:58:07I mean, what happens if they throw you out once the baby arrives?

00:58:11I didn't marry into the Mancini family for their fortune.

00:58:15And you mention their money one more time, you'll never see me again.

00:58:20Understand?

00:58:21I understand, sweetheart.

00:58:23Mom won't say another word about it.

00:58:31$10,000?

00:58:32That's it?

00:58:33That's pocket change for them!

00:58:35She must be holding down on this.

00:58:37That ungrateful little brat!

00:58:42I tried everything!

00:58:44I couldn't squeeze another penny out of her.

00:58:46She's swimming in Mancini money, and we're here struggling.

00:58:49After what they did to my leg, I should be getting millions!

00:58:52Yes!

00:58:53A few million?

00:58:54It's just the beginning.

00:58:56We've been thinking too small.

00:58:57I have good reason to believe that we have a common enemy.

00:59:12I think we should work together.

00:59:14Miss Mancini has been sleeping well, sir.

00:59:22She got the prenatal vitamins you sent her, and they effectively reduced her morning sickness.

00:59:27And this morning, she ate half a slice of French toast, a half portion of scrambled eggs,

00:59:33two cherry tomatoes, and a glass of milk.

00:59:35And after some gentle persuasion from your mother, she also had a piece of steak for the iron content.

00:59:40Well, it's good to hear that she's eating healthy.

00:59:43And then she finally attended the prenatal concert we arranged,

00:59:47and afterward, she spoke with one of the pianists about the compositions.

00:59:51Is it man or woman?

00:59:52Sir, per your instructions, they were all talented women.

00:59:55No exceptions.

00:59:57And she actually mentioned you today.

01:00:00While making hot chocolate, she said to the chef,

01:00:03it's never quite as good as Lucas.

01:00:05She always knows what to say.

01:00:06I'll make her a batch right now, and we can have it delivered.

01:00:12Great. I'll arrange a private courier right away.

01:00:20Luca is almost finished with his business.

01:00:22Hopefully, he will make it home in time for the birth.

01:00:27Mrs. Mancini, it's terrible news.

01:00:30Luca's jet has been destroyed amid a flight.

01:00:31He... he's missing.

01:00:33What?

01:00:34I want every detail immediately.

01:00:36Yes, ma'am.

01:00:39Ava, breathe.

01:00:40Breathe.

01:00:41Don't panic.

01:00:42Luca has always been lucky.

01:00:44He's going to be fine.

01:00:45He will.

01:00:51Hello?

01:00:52I have Luca Mancini.

01:00:53$20 million cash for his safe return.

01:00:56No police, no family, no security team.

01:01:00You come alone, or he dies.

01:01:03You have 24 hours.

01:01:04Oh, Ava, are you okay?

01:01:11Who was that?

01:01:12It's nothing, nothing.

01:01:14I'm just dizzy.

01:01:16The baby.

01:01:18So I'm going to go upstairs and lie down.

01:01:20Oh.

01:01:22Okay.

01:01:22Money first.

01:01:40Money first.

01:01:40I'm going to risk.

01:01:50Ow!

01:01:54You okay?

01:01:57Derek, where's Luca?

01:02:01Where's Luca?

01:02:02Don't worry about Luca.

01:02:04Worry about yourself.

01:02:10Yeah, with her as our bargaining chip, we can demand a hundred million dollars from the man James.

01:02:31Easy.

01:02:33Mom, why are you doing this? Poor family. Why have you always treated me so badly?

01:02:40Family?

01:02:45You are so pathetic.

01:02:48You just don't get it, do you?

01:02:50You're just some brat that Mom found on the street that she brought home to be our living servant.

01:02:56You're an orphan!

01:02:58Not even your birth mother wanted you.

01:03:03Yeah, we brought you in.

01:03:05We fed you. We clothed you.

01:03:08And in return, your life belongs to us.

01:03:11Oh, and uh, by the way, since we're being honest with each other right now, my whole leg injury, it's kind of my fault.

01:03:20But it was a great excuse to get you to basically give up your life and be our slave in all these years.

01:03:27You know what?

01:03:28Even though you're nothing but a bunch of orphan trash, you're actually very beautiful.

01:03:41So since we're giving up this whole brother-sister roleplay thing, I don't want to do something that I've wanted to do for a very, very long time.

01:03:56Stop, Derek! You're sick!

01:03:59Shhh!

01:04:02Now let's just keep that pretty little mouth of yours quiet, shall we?

01:04:12You fucking bitch!

01:04:26Oh god, you're alive! You're okay!

01:04:47My plane blew up!

01:04:49Anybody gets kidnapped, this isn't a coincidence!

01:04:51Who are you looking for?

01:04:53Answer me!

01:04:56Hey, make them stop!

01:05:00He's your brother!

01:05:01Come kill him!

01:05:02You just told me I'm an orphan, so he's not really my little brother.

01:05:06You better tell me who your accomplices are, or he stops breathing.

01:05:10You two should be ashamed of yourselves.

01:05:13Can I see the way that you look at each other?

01:05:15He's your dead husband's brother!

01:05:18You're betraying Marco and his mother!

01:05:23Are you alright?

01:05:24Hey, hey, hey, you okay?

01:05:25You okay?

01:05:26Yeah, yeah.

01:05:28Your mom has been so kind to me, and I dragged her into this mess.

01:05:32It's all my fault.

01:05:34Your mother-in-law took you in.

01:05:37She treated you like a daughter.

01:05:38She gave you everything that you could ever want, and this is how you repay her?

01:05:42By falling for her younger son?

01:05:43Have you already forgotten Marco?

01:05:46It is his grave?

01:05:48What is wrong with you?

01:05:52I want her as my daughter-in-law.

01:05:55First my eldest son's wife, and now my youngest.

01:05:59Objective then, and you'll lose your tongue.

01:06:05You couldn't have Luca, so you decided to try and kill him?

01:06:08Good thing he changed his flight plan at the last minute, hmm?

01:06:09Cross the Mancini's, and you cease to exist.

01:06:13Release me!

01:06:14My father will burn your empire to the ground.

01:06:15Don't you wonder why my son was gone all that time?

01:06:19Your family's power...

01:06:20Already lost.

01:06:21You are sure you decided to try and kill him?

01:06:26You decided to try and kill him?

01:06:29Good thing he changed his flight plan at the last minute, hmm?

01:06:32Cross the Mancini's, and you cease to exist.

01:06:34Release me!

01:06:35My father will burn your empire to the ground.

01:06:38Don't you wonder why my son was gone all that time?

01:06:43Your family's power is already gone.

01:07:02You two have risked everything to be together.

01:07:06I can see that Luca's devotion is absolute.

01:07:12You have endured far too much pain.

01:07:17It's time to let him take care of you.

01:07:19But, Marco, I made a promise.

01:07:24And Marco would want your happiness above all else.

01:07:31He will rest easier knowing that we are protecting you and your child.

01:07:42From this moment forward, I swear to you nobody will ever hurt you like me.

01:07:51Luca, you're bleeding.

01:07:54You gotta keep this clean.

01:07:57Yeah.

01:07:58Infections can get nasty.

01:08:04So you're saying that you care about me then?

01:08:06Shut up.

01:08:07Of course I care.

01:08:14Alright.

01:08:15Wait.

01:08:16Wait.

01:08:40Oh.

01:08:41I think he likes you.

01:08:44Yeah.

01:08:49Ava.

01:08:50I will take care of you.

01:08:52And the baby.

01:08:54Just like my brother would have.

01:08:56I brought some fruit for you and the-

01:09:00Luca.

01:09:02She's pregnant.

01:09:03Be gentle with her.

01:09:04I think maybe you should get some less.

01:09:05Okay.

01:09:06Oh.

01:09:07Wait.

01:09:08What is it?

01:09:09I think I'm in labor.

01:09:10Oh my god.

01:09:11Come here.

01:09:12Come here.

01:09:13Come here.

01:09:14What was he saying?

01:10:04Right here.

01:10:07Right here.

01:10:08Yes.

01:10:12Mom, I can't.

01:10:15Just whip it out.

01:10:18Hurry it up.

01:10:29I hope things are going smoothly in there.

01:10:51They've never been together before.

01:10:55Never been together?

01:10:57Then how could she be?

01:10:59The child is my late son's.

01:11:02Luca's brother.

01:11:06You okay?

01:11:08Doctor, please.

01:11:09Doctor, please.

01:11:17One, two, three, push.

01:11:19One, two, three, push.

01:11:23One, two, three, push.

01:11:24Push, push, push.

01:11:25Push.

01:11:29Watch your baby.

01:11:38Okay.

01:11:40Melissa.

01:11:42Hey.

01:11:43Hi.

01:11:44How you feeling?

01:11:45Good.

01:11:46You want something to eat?

01:11:48Okay.

01:11:49Okay.

01:11:49I thought this hospital was the best that money can buy

01:11:56I guess I was misinformed

01:11:58Look

01:12:00They're doing the best they can

01:12:03Let's not terrorize the staff

01:12:04Thank you

01:12:05Look

01:12:07I just don't want to see you in any more pain

01:12:11You would tear me apart

01:12:19Luca

01:12:21Remember to control yourself, son

01:12:25Let her recover first

01:12:28And have you decided what to name this little prince?

01:12:43Marco

01:12:45I want to name him Marco

01:12:47Look, little one

01:13:11It's your daddy

01:13:14Your real daddy

01:13:16It's remarkable how much he looks like

01:13:23Marco

01:13:25I thought you had all the answers

01:13:28And that you handle everything

01:13:31And I promise to protect mom

01:13:34The business

01:13:37And your family

01:13:39Our family

01:13:42You know Marco used to say

01:13:47That

01:13:49If you wanted to think about somebody

01:13:51You would watch the dandelion

01:13:53And if the seeds blew out easily

01:13:55Then they were thinking of you too

01:13:56I hear you on the radio

01:14:01On the radio

01:14:02On the radio

01:14:03On the radio

01:14:3130% ownership

01:14:33Of Mancini group holdings

01:14:36Effective

01:14:37Immediately

01:14:38This ring

01:14:44Has been in the Mancini family

01:14:46For seven generations

01:14:48Passed from mother

01:14:52Taking one

01:14:57Forever

01:14:58Ever

01:15:00We'll look

01:15:02Think of this

01:15:03The perfect fit

01:15:04And cry

01:15:06At all of these

01:15:08Morals

01:15:09Now

01:15:13I need the two of you

01:15:19To focus on your top priority.

01:15:23Um, top priority?
