Transcript

00:00:00That's weird, the email's at 6.30. Well, I'm here.

00:00:21This place is huge. I hope I get this. I really need this job.

00:00:27You can go in. She will see you now.

00:00:39Good morning. I'm Anna and I'm excited to be here. Thought I'd see more people though.

00:00:47Oh, Anna. You're as dumb as ever.

00:00:53Well, well, well. If it isn't the filthy Anna, welcome to Luminous.

00:01:01I see. You're still wearing sad colours. We could have done a better job in your first interview.

00:01:07What are you guys doing here? What's going on?

00:01:11Shut it. We're here to conduct your interview, genius. We obviously work here.

00:01:17Unfortunately, you're not doing great in the first interview. Also, we have a strict no-trash policy.

00:01:29Why are you doing this? You're as mean as you were in high school. Let me go. I don't have time for this.

00:01:38But you need this job. So stay good like a little good girl.

00:01:45The CEO is back. He is in the building. Get out, Bill. My CEO is...

00:01:55Can someone explain to me why there's a woman on my shoes?

00:02:01Is this what happens in my company when I'm not around?

00:02:05Serious pleasure to have you here. Um, she was just on her way out.

00:02:09She came for an interview, but it's fair to say she isn't company material.

00:02:14You're being awfully quiet. Is it true you came in for an interview?

00:02:18Yes, sir.

00:02:19I'm the one who decides exactly if she's company material or not.

00:02:24Now, what's your name and why were you on my floor?

00:02:27She tripped on her way out.

00:02:29I wasn't talking to you, Jessica. The lady can answer for herself. You can talk to me.

00:02:38My name is Anna. I got an email saying I should come in for the interview.

00:02:43I was excited because I really need this job.

00:02:47Turns out it was just a stupid joke.

00:02:50A joke? What do you mean a joke?

00:02:54Let's just say your employees are the same mean kids they were years ago.

00:03:00I see. I can't say I'm not surprised, just disappointed.

00:03:08Well, Miss Anna, I'm sorry that you had to go through whatever these two buffoons have cooked up for you.

00:03:15And I'm sorry that I couldn't have been there to prevent you from going through that ordeal.

00:03:19The most I can do is give you a job.

00:03:24What are you talking about?

00:03:26How would you like to work for me, Miss Anna?

00:03:28You can resume work tomorrow as assistant to the CEO.

00:03:32Doesn't that sound good?

00:03:34Yes, sir.

00:03:40What is he planning?

00:03:44You'll explain to me why you thought it appropriate to choose an applicant like you did today.

00:03:49Sir, we didn't mean-

00:03:50Didn't mean to what? To humiliate her? To mock her? To laugh at someone who came here for an opportunity?

00:03:59We were just having a lot of fun. It wasn't something that serious. And we know her from way back.

00:04:04Sir, it was just harmless fun.

00:04:06Fun? You thought that was fun? That was cruel. And in this working environment there is no place for cruelty.

00:04:14With all due respect, sir, she isn't exactly our hire. She has no place here either.

00:04:21And that's not your decision to make. If I ever see you treat anyone like you did today, both of you are out.

00:04:29You will be so fast that you won't have time to go and pack away your desks. This is your last warning.

00:04:35Next time I catch you, you're done.

00:04:41What's his problem?

00:04:44I don't know. He's more than I expected, you know. He's a powerful man. And I can feel it.

00:04:52But there is something about him. Doesn't he feel familiar to you?

00:04:57Whatever. That's not important. What matters is that Anna is a problem.

00:05:04Let's make sure she regrets ever stepping foot in this building.

00:05:09Good morning, sir.

00:05:17Hey, good morning, Anna.

00:05:18I got you some coffee on my way to work. And here are some files you requested.

00:05:24You bought the coffee? You know we have a coffee machine in the break room, right?

00:05:30Crap.

00:05:31Oh, careful. You wouldn't want a coffee stain disaster to start the day now, would you?

00:05:35I am so sorry, sir. Guess I'm still fine in my footing.

00:05:40I get it. First days are always messy.

00:05:44I will do my best, sir. I mean it. I won't let you regret giving me a chance.

00:05:50Please, call me Lucas. Sir just makes me feel old.

00:05:55Tell me, Anna. Do you know me from before now?

00:05:59I don't think so, Lucas. I'm pretty sure I would remember someone like you.

00:06:17How does anyone get this thing to work?

00:06:20It's not a spaceship, you know.

00:06:23Damn it. You scared the shit out of me.

00:06:25Here, let me show you.

00:06:26Let me show you.

00:06:30I think I got it now. Thank you.

00:06:32You're doing great, Anna.

00:06:33Better than most on the first date.

00:06:45Daphne.

00:06:46Lucas, darling. I hope you're ready.

00:06:49I'll be in this city for a few days. Lucky you. I'm gonna be stopping by just to see you.

00:06:56Great. Can't wait.

00:06:57Can't wait.

00:07:11Here is your coffee, sir. Um, Lucas.

00:07:15Thank you. I can't see how well I look forward to my morning coffee, sir.

00:07:18It's my pleasure. I got you on the good stuff.

00:07:22Lucas? Surprise?

00:07:25It's not technically a surprise when you call ahead, Daphne.

00:07:30I didn't know you hired a new help.

00:07:34Help?

00:07:35Daphne, this is Anna. My new assistant. She's been a great help.

00:07:41Assistant? Interesting.

00:07:46I thought you had higher standards for hiring personal help around here.

00:07:53I'll leave you two to talk.

00:07:56No, no, no, Anna. Stay.

00:07:58Daphne, why exactly are you here?

00:08:01It can't just be to see me. How's the old man?

00:08:05Ah, the old man is fine. I'm just checking in.

00:08:09I thought we can have a lunch together. It's been too long since we caught up.

00:08:14As you can see, I'm swamped here. So maybe another time that's more convenient.

00:08:19Of course. I'm busy as always.

00:08:21You know how it is.

00:08:24In fact, how about you contact Anna and she'll fix you in with a time that's more available to me.

00:08:31Well, Anna, enjoy your position here. It's not often Lucas lets just anyone into his circle.

00:08:42Um, thank you, ma'am.

00:08:44You know, Lucas, not everyone has your best interests and there are so many gold diggers these days.

00:08:54Thanks. I'll keep that in mind, Daphne.

00:08:58We'll talk soon.

00:08:59Um, should I go?

00:09:00No, no. Stay, please. Let's continue with this work.

00:09:11Daphne, it's been a while.

00:09:12Jessica, you look... the same.

00:09:13What this about? You're not usually the let's have lunch type. In fact, I was sure you hated my guts.

00:09:30Anna still do, so let's keep the small talk. We both want the same thing, to get Anna away from Lucas.

00:09:38Finally, someone else sees it. That little nobody just acting like she belongs there. She's running her way into Lucas' heart.

00:09:51She doesn't belong, but you're right, she's getting too close to Lucas and that is a problem.

00:09:58Huh? Who's your target?

00:10:00Lucas is mine and has always been. Lucas and I are a perfect match, so I won't let any nobody assistant ruin that.

00:10:13Well, she's annoyingly resilient. Believe me, I've tried and Lucas seems to have a soft spot for her.

00:10:24Then try her. With my influence and your directness, we can make her quit.

00:10:30I'm listening. What's your plan?

00:10:35We'll hit her from both sides. At work, you gotta keep her busy, undermine her confidence, just make her feel out of place.

00:10:45Hmm, that's easy.

00:10:46And outside of work, I'll handle Lucas. I'll plant a doubt about her confidence and just remind him that she's beneath him.

00:10:58Divide and concur. I like it.

00:11:02Good. Let's keep it between us. Lucas can't know we're working together.

00:11:07You don't have to tell me twice. I can lose my job. For what? We deserve.

00:11:15I don't toast with a cup of coffee.

00:11:22Thank you for bringing me alone. I promise, I won't mess this up.

00:11:27You won't. Just be yourself. And you should give yourself more credit.

00:11:38You'll be very very impressed.

00:11:43Your assistant this year, Mr. Gustavs.

00:11:59Yes, she is. We pride ourselves on having the best employees in this company

00:12:02in this company and Anna she's a model example of that. Thank you very much for

00:12:09your time. Get home safe, okay? Bye-bye, bye-bye.

00:12:17You didn't have to say that back there. I did. It's true. You know it. They know it.

00:12:25Thanks. I wish you could tell that to high school me. Why?

00:12:31What can I say? I was bullied a lot. Kids can be cruel you know. Yeah, I know. It was

00:12:39terrible. I had no friends. There was this one kid though. He was shy and kind and

00:12:48was bullied a lot because of that. I don't even know his name. I wonder what

00:12:56happened to him. Maybe he turned out okay. I really hope so. He deserved better.

00:13:06Thanks, Lucas. I can't remember the last time. I just relaxed. You know what? Me neither.

00:13:14Me neither. You know, for a CEO, you are pretty down to earth. And you're pretty amazing for an assistant.

00:13:22Oh, whoa. Where are you going? Excuse me? I need to get this to Lucas. Get out of my way.

00:13:33Oh, it's Lucas now. Look at you. Little miss assistant. Who knew crawling on the floor could get you promotion?

00:13:41The CEO might have bought you sobbing story, but we know the truth. You don't belong here.

00:13:47I earned my spot here. Just like everyone else. Did you? Or did you just remind Lucas of some pathetic

00:13:54sob story from high school? Oh, poor bullet Anna. Boo hoo.

00:14:00You think your life was miserable back then? That was nothing. Oh, honey. We've got resources now. And you've got enemies in high places. Just imagine what we can do to your career.

00:14:12Why? Why are you doing this? You've got everything you wanted. Why am I still a threat to you?

00:14:19Because you don't deserve to be here. Simple. Quit, Anna. Or we'll make sure your life here is just as bad as it was in high school.

00:14:34Oh, no. You better pick that up, assistant.

00:14:49Anna. Everything okay? Yes. I'm still getting used to the office. It's just so big.

00:15:06If anyone ever gives you any problems here, you can come to me. Understand?

00:15:12Yes, sir.

00:15:14Hey, Dad. I've been thinking about Lucas again. What about him?

00:15:30Well, remember you told me to settle down and start looking for a partner? I think Lucas might be the one. Think about it.

00:15:41He's intelligent, ambitious, and his company has been taken off. You told that to me.

00:15:49Well, he has exceeded even my expectations.

00:15:52Exactly. He's the ideal partner for me. He's everything you raved about, and you basically shaped him to be so.

00:16:00Well, you're not wrong. He has proven himself to be more than capable in every sense.

00:16:06However, does he share the same feelings? Does he see it that way?

00:16:12Well, not yet, but he will after you speak to him.

00:16:17He needs to see how well we complement each other, and I will be his obvious choice.

00:16:25Well, the match does make sense. Lucas is a stubborn man. He might not see things your way immediately, might not be.

00:16:34Then we'll show him. Invite him for dinner, Daddy.

00:16:40Very well. I'll speak with him tomorrow. I must say that Lucas isn't easily convinced.

00:16:46So, if he does agree, it's because you convinced him, not because I said.

00:16:51Leave it convincing to me, Dad.

00:16:54Mr. Anderson, sir.

00:17:11Good morning, Lucas, my boy. I hope I'm not interrupting.

00:17:14No, no, not at all, sir. You know it's always a pleasure when you call me. How can I help?

00:17:19I wanted to invite you for dinner tomorrow evening. Just you, Daphne, and me. Nothing formal, son.

00:17:24Just a chance to talk and catch up.

00:17:27Well, dinner sounds like a lovely idea. I'd be honoured.

00:17:30Seven sharp. Daphne is looking forward to it.

00:17:33Sounds great. Looking forward to it.

00:17:34Good. See you tomorrow, Lucas.

00:17:37Goodbye, sir.

00:17:50Anna, can you come in a moment?

00:17:54You need me, sir? Mr. Lucas?

00:17:58I've been invited for dinner tomorrow night at the Anderson's, my mentor's house.

00:18:03And I was wondering if you might accompany me. I'm sure Daphne will enjoy the company.

00:18:07I appreciate the offer, but I don't think that's appropriate.

00:18:14Appropriate? You say it's a personal dinner and I would probably feel out of place.

00:18:21I see. Well, thank you for being honest.

00:18:25I'm sure it will go well, sir. You don't need me there.

00:18:29I'm sure it will. Well, thank you, Anna. That will be all.

00:18:33Lucas, it's always a pleasure having you around.

00:18:43But you've been so busy making great strides that you hardly stop by anymore.

00:18:48I am sorry, sir.

00:18:49It's just I've been out of town for a few months and ever since I've come back

00:18:53I've been so busy organizing the operations at Luminous, but I really do owe you everything, sir.

00:19:00Oh, so stop it. I've always said you're one of my brightest panties.

00:19:04And that's why you're here tonight, Lucas.

00:19:08Father and I want you to feel like family.

00:19:14Thank you. I appreciate it a lot. And I really do consider both of you as family, too.

00:19:22Well, Lucas, you've made a remarkable life for yourself.

00:19:26And I think that success is best shared, don't you, Lee?

00:19:31You're right, sir. Life is better with the right people.

00:19:37In that spirit, I think you and Daphne would make a wonderful team.

00:19:42Not just in business, but in life.

00:19:46Father, you're embarrassing him.

00:19:50I'm honored in your confidence in me, sir.

00:19:54And your daughter Daphne is an extraordinary woman, but I just...

00:19:58I think you're extraordinary, too.

00:20:00And you know exactly what Father is talking about.

00:20:05We belong together.

00:20:07That's kind of you to say, Daphne. I'm really flattered, but I just...

00:20:11Well, Lucas, think about it.

00:20:15And, um, just think that you'll be part of this family, and you'll be my son.

00:20:23Thank you, sir. Thank you. I definitely will think about you.

00:20:29I... I meant what I said. I think we'll be good together.

00:20:38No, no, no. We'll be perfect.

00:20:41I don't know what to say, Daphne. I just... I need to go.

00:20:45No, no, no.

00:20:55Anna, can you come in for a moment, please?

00:21:01You need it, please, sir?

00:21:03Yes, Anna, please take a seat.

00:21:05I need to vent for a minute.

00:21:09Since when did you start venting?

00:21:11This sounds serious.

00:21:13Wait, is it about yesterday's dinner?

00:21:17You have no idea.

00:21:18Hell, I had no idea.

00:21:20I just walked in there and...

00:21:23Well, what happened?

00:21:25It was so awkward.

00:21:27Your Mr. Anderson practically suggested that I should be together with Daphne.

00:21:31As a couple.

00:21:33Um, well, I could have told you that.

00:21:37She has been circling you like a hawk since the day I started here.

00:21:42Mr. Anderson thinks it's a great idea.

00:21:45He's my mentor.

00:21:46I just owe him so much.

00:21:48Well, can you blame her?

00:21:54Look at you, Lucas.

00:21:56What woman wouldn't want you?

00:21:58You're smart, successful.

00:22:02And, well, you're you.

00:22:06Thanks for the confidence boost, but that's just not the problem.

00:22:10What is?

00:22:12The problem is...

00:22:14I'm thinking of someone else.

00:22:17You do?

00:22:18Yeah, but I don't know how to let Daphne down without disappointing Mr. Anderson.

00:22:23I see what you mean.

00:22:25That could be tricky.

00:22:26I just don't want to hurt anyone.

00:22:29Especially not her or him.

00:22:31Hey, it's alright, Lucas.

00:22:35You will do the right thing.

00:22:37If we adjust the timeline here,

00:22:41we can meet the targets without pushing the team too hard.

00:22:44Good idea.

00:22:46You really have a good eye for detail.

00:22:52I hope I'm not interrupting Lucas.

00:22:55Daphne, this is unexpected.

00:22:58What brings you here on the monster?

00:23:00I trust you to skip the pleasantries.

00:23:02I assume you've given it some thought.

00:23:06To be honest, I've not had any time, Daphne.

00:23:14And is she what you've been so busy with?

00:23:18My name is Anna, Mr. Anderson.

00:23:20We've met before.

00:23:21I'm Mr. Lucas' assistant.

00:23:23I know exactly what you are.

00:23:25I can feel the stench from a mile away.

00:23:27That's enough.

00:23:29That is not enough.

00:23:31What's your plan?

00:23:33I can see the way she's looking at you.

00:23:35You think you can just warm your way into his office?

00:23:39Into his life, maybe.

00:23:42I didn't mean.

00:23:45Save it.

00:23:47Women like you know exactly what they're doing.

00:23:49I have to go.

00:23:51We'll cross the line, Daphne.

00:23:55I'm just protecting what's mine.

00:23:57I am not yours.

00:24:06Anna, stop, wait.

00:24:11You can't let her get to you.

00:24:13Here, let me drive you home.

00:24:21I'm so sorry you had to see all of that.

00:24:23Daphne had no right to talk to you that way.

00:24:27I still can't believe she said that.

00:24:29It's fine.

00:24:31I should have expected it.

00:24:33I don't exactly fit in there.

00:24:35Don't say that.

00:24:37You fit in there more than any of them.

00:24:39More than you know.

00:24:40Why would you defend me like that?

00:24:42You're supposed to be on her side.

00:24:45She's your...

00:24:47That's not true.

00:24:49I know you.

00:24:51I've known you longer than you know.

00:24:55I know you to be kind and real.

00:24:57More real than any of them.

00:24:59How could you possibly know that?

00:25:01It's a long story and I promise I'll tell you soon.

00:25:06Just trust me for now.

00:25:08But right now we have to get you home.

00:25:11Thank you Lucas for everything.

00:25:14You didn't have to do any of this.

00:25:17Any time.

00:25:19Good night Lucas.

00:25:20Good night Anne.

00:25:21You should have seen her earlier.

00:25:25I've been turning up the heat.

00:25:27Making sure she knows she doesn't belong here.

00:25:31She's putting on the brave face.

00:25:34There's nothing new.

00:25:35Just not like that.

00:25:37I think she's winning him over.

00:25:41Lucas and Pamela, they're getting closer.

00:25:45What is that supposed to mean?

00:25:48Just another day I overheard him talking to her.

00:25:53He was complaining about the dinner and something with your father's proposal.

00:25:59He said that?

00:26:01Word for word.

00:26:03And he didn't sound happy about it.

00:26:09This cunt doesn't know who she's messing with.

00:26:12She's interfering somewhere she shouldn't.

00:26:15So, what's the plan?

00:26:18I'll handle it.

00:26:27Daphne, haven't you done enough?

00:26:28What do you want now?

00:26:30I need to see you.

00:26:31Right now.

00:26:32It's late and frankly I'm not in the mood.

00:26:34This is going to have to wait.

00:26:35No.

00:26:36It won't.

00:26:37Meet me at my father's club.

00:26:39I'll be waiting.

00:26:49Daphne, I'm here.

00:26:50What's the origin?

00:26:51It took you long enough.

00:26:53Yeah, I was on my way home.

00:26:56What's this about?

00:26:58Don't play dumb with me, Lucas.

00:27:00You know exactly what this is about.

00:27:02Listen, if this is about Anna, then...

00:27:04Of course it's about her.

00:27:06Do you think I haven't noticed?

00:27:08You're spending too much time together.

00:27:10This is embarrassing.

00:27:11Do you realize how crazy you sound?

00:27:14Anna's just my assistant and that's all there is to it.

00:27:18Don't insult me, Lucas.

00:27:20At least have the decency to own up.

00:27:22I saw the way you looked at her tonight.

00:27:26Let me remind you of something you might have forgotten.

00:27:30My father gave you everything.

00:27:33He mentored you.

00:27:34He invested in you.

00:27:36Without him, you wouldn't even have your company.

00:27:39You owe him.

00:27:41You owe us.

00:27:43Daphne, you know I appreciate everything that your father has done for you.

00:27:49His generosity.

00:27:50But that doesn't mean that...

00:27:51It means.

00:27:52Whatever I say, it means.

00:27:55I like you, Lucas.

00:27:59I'd hope you would come around.

00:28:02The truth is you have no choice.

00:28:05You're mine.

00:28:07And that's all that matters.

00:28:09Can you hear yourself think?

00:28:12I'm not some dog that you can just yell at to go running around all the time.

00:28:17Get yourself together, Lucas.

00:28:19If you don't, I will tell my father how ungrateful you are.

00:28:24Let's see how loyal he stays to someone who spits on his generosity.

00:28:36Good morning, Anna.

00:28:37Doing well?

00:28:38Good morning, sir.

00:28:40Sorry, Lucas.

00:28:43I just want to thank you for driving me home yesterday.

00:28:47It was kind of you.

00:28:49You didn't have to.

00:28:50It was nothing.

00:28:51I'm just doing what Emma would have.

00:28:53Still, it meant a lot to me.

00:28:57I don't know how I was planning to get home after running off.

00:29:01Anna, what's important is that you got home safe.

00:29:04But I would appreciate if my employees did not leave before working hours close.

00:29:09All right.

00:29:10I will leave you to your work then.

00:29:18Well, well, if it isn't the employee of the month.

00:29:22What do you want, Jessica?

00:29:24Nothing crazy.

00:29:25I just want to glut.

00:29:27What are you talking about?

00:29:29Daphne.

00:29:30She's got her clothes in him.

00:29:32She doesn't like competition.

00:29:35I am not competing with anyone.

00:29:38Oh, sweetie.

00:29:39You don't have to be.

00:29:41Just existing near him is enough for her to consider your friend.

00:29:45From what I hear, she's got a little chat with Lucas last night.

00:29:50And taught him to keep his distance or else.

00:29:54Why are you telling me this?

00:29:56Because I think it will be hilarious to watch you crash and burn your way over your head.

00:30:14Lucas, you've come a long way.

00:30:17I'm proud of you.

00:30:19I've been hearing some troubling reports.

00:30:25Troubling, sir?

00:30:27I hear you become distracted, spending too much time with your assistant.

00:30:35Daphne is concerned, and frankly, I agree.

00:30:39Mr. Anderson, Anna is just my assistant.

00:30:42And you know I'm not the type of guy to go messing around, especially with work.

00:30:47That's what I've been telling Daphne.

00:30:50Be careful, Lucas.

00:30:51You owe this family and you owe me.

00:30:55I believe this information is audited.

00:31:11What kind of pressure you're running here?

00:31:13I hear.

00:31:15I don't.

00:31:19It must be an oversight on Anna's part.

00:31:21She's new.

00:31:23I apologize for this mix-up and we'll correct this immediately.

00:31:27And listen, I know you've flown here from very, very far away to be here with us today.

00:31:32But let me tell you, I have all the information in my head.

00:31:35So there's no need for us to delay this anymore.

00:31:40You called me, sir?

00:31:41I know you sabotaged Anna.

00:31:43I don't know what you're talking about.

00:31:45The girl is clearly unfit to be here.

00:31:47I'm the one who decides who's fit to work in this company and who isn't.

00:31:50But sir-

00:31:51Don't do it again, Jessica.

00:31:53Or else.

00:31:55All of you.

00:31:56Now get her.

00:32:25Sir, Lucas, um, can I talk to you?

00:32:34What's your mind?

00:32:35I am sorry for appearing unprofessional in front of a client yesterday.

00:32:41But I need to know, why didn't you defend me?

00:32:46You saw what they did!

00:32:49It's... it's complicated.

00:32:52Complicated?

00:32:53So you're just gonna let them humiliate me?

00:32:56I thought I could count on you.

00:32:58Of course you can count on me, Anna.

00:33:00You know that.

00:33:01You're just like them.

00:33:04I thought you were different.

00:33:05I'm nothing like them!

00:33:07Nothing!

00:33:08I... I...

00:33:10Should have said something yesterday, Anna.

00:33:13I'm sorry.

00:33:23Maybe Nathan and Jessica are right.

00:33:46Maybe this isn't the place for me.

00:33:48You're damn right.

00:33:49I am right.

00:33:50You're long enough to realize that.

00:33:52What are you doing here?

00:33:54This is an employee's lounge genius.

00:33:57The better question is, what are you still doing here?

00:33:59I don't have to tell you anything.

00:34:01You've done enough already.

00:34:03Oh, baby.

00:34:04The fun's just getting started.

00:34:05You better buckle up.

00:34:07Oh...

00:34:08Oh...

00:34:09Oh...

00:34:10Oh...

00:34:11Oh...

00:34:12Oh...

00:34:13Oh...

00:34:14Oh...

00:34:15Oh...

00:34:36Someone is in the mood.

00:34:38You're late.

00:34:39I assume you had time to think about what we discussed.

00:34:45I'm not here to play games, Daphne.

00:34:48Tell me what this is about.

00:34:49So let's get straight to you.

00:34:51Have you decided to do the right thing?

00:34:54Toss Anna out of the company and just stop this nonsense?

00:34:59The right thing?

00:35:01You mean bending to your every whim?

00:35:05You can't afford to mock me.

00:35:07Let me remind you, Lucas.

00:35:09The clock is ticking.

00:35:11And my father won't hesitate to pull his support if he finds...

00:35:16What's daddy going to do, Daphne?

00:35:18How dare you?

00:35:19No, I've had enough of this.

00:35:22Your father may have helped you, but I built my own success.

00:35:26And I'm tired of letting you or anyone hold that over me.

00:35:32You're making a mistake, Lucas.

00:35:35The only mistake I ever made was letting you think you could control me.

00:35:39You're mine and I can control you.

00:35:41Grow up, Daphne.

00:35:43The world doesn't revolve around you.

00:35:45And you.

00:35:46Wait.

00:35:47You can't leave.

00:35:48Watch me.

00:35:49Hello?

00:35:50Lucas?

00:35:51Hey.

00:35:52I hope it's not too late.

00:35:53No, it's fine.

00:35:54What's going on?

00:35:55I just wanted to apologize now.

00:35:56For everything you've been through because of people like Daphne.

00:35:58I just wanted to apologize now.

00:35:59For everything you've been through because of people like Daphne.

00:36:00It's not your fault, Lucas.

00:36:14You didn't ask for any of it.

00:36:17I just wanted to apologize now.

00:36:22For everything you've been through because of people like Daphne.

00:36:26It's not your fault, Lucas.

00:36:28I didn't ask for any of it.

00:36:30But I didn't stop it either.

00:36:32I spent so long being afraid of going back to who I was.

00:36:35To the person people look down on.

00:36:37I can't imagine anyone looking down on you.

00:36:41But then there's you.

00:36:43You've reminded me that there's nothing wrong with who I was.

00:36:46Nothing wrong with standing up for myself or the people who matter.

00:36:51Lucas.

00:36:52I'd like to talk to you in person.

00:36:54If you're okay with it.

00:36:56Fine.

00:36:58Where should we meet?

00:37:12Thanks for coming.

00:37:14Yeah.

00:37:15It was unexpected.

00:37:17Yeah.

00:37:18I still can't believe I drove all the way out here.

00:37:20Goodnight, Anna.

00:37:22Goodnight, Lucas.

00:37:26Lucas?

00:37:27You didn't have to do this.

00:37:28It's okay.

00:37:29I wanted to.

00:37:30Let's just call it carpool.

00:37:32carpool.

00:37:33Ok.

00:37:34Alright, thank you.

00:37:35You're welcome.

00:37:36You're welcome.

00:37:37Oh, we're welcome.

00:37:38No, we're welcome.

00:37:39We're welcome.

00:37:40No, we're welcome.

00:37:41You're welcome.

00:37:42No, we're welcome.

00:37:43You're welcome.

00:37:44No, we're welcome.

00:37:45I'm welcome.

00:37:46I'm welcome.

00:37:47I'm welcome.

00:37:48Oh!

00:37:49Lucas?

00:37:50You didn't have to do this.

00:37:51It's okay.

00:37:52I wanted to.

00:37:53Let's just call it carpool.

00:37:56You're really risking being late for me.

00:38:08I know the boss.

00:38:09He'll let us late.

00:38:10Haha.

00:38:11Haha.

00:38:12Haha.

00:38:13Haha.

00:38:14Haha.

00:38:15Haha.

00:38:16Haha.

00:38:17Haha.

00:38:18Haha.

00:38:19Ryan.

00:38:20Did he come in together?

00:38:25Looks like it.

00:38:26Wonder what's going on there.

00:38:28This has to be some kind of a joke.

00:38:29Anna?

00:38:30With Lucas?

00:38:31She's acting like she won't the place now.

00:38:32It's disgusting.

00:38:33Who knew?

00:38:34The girl we used to shove into the locker room was cozying up with the CEO.

00:38:39I guess we have to go to the office.

00:38:41I'm sorry.

00:38:42I'm sorry.

00:38:43I'm sorry.

00:38:44I'm sorry.

00:38:45I'm sorry.

00:38:46I'm sorry.

00:38:47I guess we underestimated her.

00:38:49This isn't over.

00:39:01Fuck!

00:39:02Now!

00:39:03Daphne, what are you doing here?

00:39:04Can't you barge into my office?

00:39:06I need to know what is this about?

00:39:09Bringing her to work like some...

00:39:12You're embarrassing yourself.

00:39:14You're embarrassing me.

00:39:15You're supposed to be better than this, Lucas.

00:39:18That's enough, Daphne.

00:39:19Who I decide to drive to my office is my own damn business.

00:39:24That is not enough.

00:39:26You think you can just toss aside everything and parade around like that?

00:39:30I said that's enough, Daphne.

00:39:33I don't know what you think you're entitled to, but it ends right now.

00:39:38Lucas, I...

00:39:39I said that's enough!

00:39:41You can't just barge in here and talk about my decision, my office, my company's decisions.

00:39:47You've crossed the line.

00:39:48Now get out.

00:39:49So...

00:39:50The boss has teeth after all.

00:40:02With me here.

00:40:03I'll be right back.

00:40:04Are you sure?

00:40:05I'm right here, Daphne.

00:40:06Thanks.

00:40:07I'll be fine.

00:40:08Lucas, sit.

00:40:09I assume you know why I called you here.

00:40:12I have a good idea, sir.

00:40:37I've called you here. I have a good idea, sir.

00:40:41Daphne told me everything. How you've rejected her, you embarrassed her.

00:40:49You owe this, you jeopardise in this family's partnership.

00:40:55To be frank, sir, this was never about business.

00:40:58Daphne and I were not in a good match.

00:41:03And trying to force something that just isn't there is just going to end badly.

00:41:07You don't get to dictate terms here.

00:41:10Lucas, I made you. Without my support, you'd still be digging for scraps.

00:41:15And I appreciate everything you've done for me, sir, but that doesn't mean I owe you my life.

00:41:21You're throwing everything away. For what? For some assistance?

00:41:25You think you could survive without my backing?

00:41:27I'm willing to take that risk.

00:41:29I'm not willing to sacrifice my integrity or let anyone dictate my choices.

00:41:33No matter what the cost.

00:41:35You'll regret this, Lucas, about my words.

00:41:42Well, well, well. Look who's here.

00:41:47Enjoy a little field trip.

00:41:50And I hope you're ready for what's coming.

00:41:53You're braver than I thought, Anna.

00:41:57Following Lucas like a little shadow.

00:42:02I am here because he asked me to come.

00:42:06Lucas doesn't belong in your world.

00:42:08And you certainly don't belong in his.

00:42:12I am not trying to take him away from me, Daphne.

00:42:16Take him away from me?

00:42:19Aren't you confident?

00:42:21Let me make something clear.

00:42:23Lucas is mine.

00:42:27All I'm saying is I am not a threat.

00:42:31The only threat here is me.

00:42:34Don't mess with me or I'll wreck you and him.

00:42:38You can say whatever you want about me, Daphne.

00:42:43But if you try to hurt Lucas, I swear I'll make you regret it.

00:42:50So, you've got some fighting you after all.

00:42:54I thought all of this was bullied out from you in a high school.

00:42:58You don't scare me, Daphne.

00:43:00I see right through all of the tough talk.

00:43:02Shut up!

00:43:03You don't know what you're talking about!

00:43:05Oh, but I do.

00:43:08You're scared to be rejected for the first time in your life.

00:43:13You think you're clever?

00:43:15Huh?

00:43:16Don't you?

00:43:18I think you underestimate me.

00:43:23Enjoy a little moment in the sun.

00:43:25It won't last long.

00:43:35Rough day, huh?

00:43:37You could say that.

00:43:39I can't say I'm surprised.

00:43:42So, I take it Daphne found you when I was up speaking to her father?

00:43:46She tried threatening me.

00:43:49Made me feel small.

00:43:50Like I don't belong in your world.

00:43:54I'm so sorry.

00:43:55You didn't deserve that.

00:43:57It's okay.

00:43:58I kind of stood up to her.

00:44:01Especially when she started threatening you.

00:44:05You did?

00:44:07Well, I wasn't going to let her push me around.

00:44:10Especially when it ignored you.

00:44:14I mean, I knew you were tough, but to stand up to Daphne?

00:44:18That's impressive.

00:44:21Thank you, Anne.

00:44:23It's nice to know that someone has my back.

00:44:26You know what?

00:44:26I think we deserve a break.

00:44:28How about we stop for some lunch on the way back?

00:44:30Lunch?

00:44:31Yeah.

00:44:31I think we deserve it after the morning we've had.

00:44:34Okay. Lunch sounds great.

00:44:35You needed me, sir?

00:44:38Anna.

00:44:39Come in and sit down.

00:44:41Anna.

00:44:42Because you're new here, you might not know this.

00:44:43But I usually don't spend that amount of time in the headquarters.

00:44:47The reason I'm here is because I've seen some inconsistencies.

00:45:02Um, what do you mean?

00:45:08There's been some inconsistencies.

00:45:10Some money trails that just lead to nowhere.

00:45:13And I suspect someone's in the offices behind it.

00:45:16Do you mean fraud?

00:45:18Or worse.

00:45:20I couldn't quite pinpoint it from afar.

00:45:22That's why I had to come here and see myself.

00:45:26Does anyone else know?

00:45:28No.

00:45:29The fewer people that know, the better.

00:45:32Then let me help you.

00:45:35This could be dangerous.

00:45:37The person who's behind this won't like the fact that we're poking around.

00:45:41I know, but I want to help.

00:45:44And if there is a problem, we will fix it.

00:45:48Alright.

00:45:50I'll show the inconsistencies that I've got so far and we'll follow it till the end.

00:45:56They will paint a bigger picture.

00:45:57Exactly.

00:45:58I'll give you full access to the files I've flagged and see if you can spot any inconsistencies or see if anything's off.

00:46:05I'll start tonight.

00:46:07Anna.

00:46:09From now on, every department will undergo a thorough audit and I will personally review the results myself.

00:46:21Isn't this drastic?

00:46:23And not like this could disrupt operations.

00:46:26A little bit of disruption is better than corruption.

00:46:30Don't you think?

00:46:31We're all on the same side, Lucas.

00:46:33You don't have to treat it like a witch hunt.

00:46:35If there's nothing wrong and there's nothing to hide, is there?

00:46:39Get out of my office.

00:46:40Get out of my office.

00:46:56It's getting too close.

00:46:57What if he finds out?

00:46:59Then we make sure he does it.

00:47:01You mean clean up everything?

00:47:03Exactly.

00:47:04We erase all the trails, adjust the numbers and tie up loose ends.

00:47:10I don't know, maybe we should come clean.

00:47:13I could talk to him.

00:47:14And what, risk us all turning us in?

00:47:17Huh?

00:47:18What do you think he's just going to let it slide once he sees the whole picture?

00:47:21Maybe.

00:47:22No!

00:47:23We stick to the plan, keep him distracted and I will handle the things.

00:47:27What do you mean by handle?

00:47:29Just let me, leave it to me, okay?

00:47:45I'll get to the bottom of this.

00:47:53Lucas, I know you're angry, but I think you need to think this through.

00:47:59This company used to stand for something good.

00:48:03But now I find my own people are stealing money?

00:48:08I know, but we will fix this.

00:48:11You have already found out who's behind it.

00:48:13This is the first step.

00:48:15Fix this? How can we fix this?

00:48:17These are people I trusted.

00:48:19By holding them accountable.

00:48:22Losing your head now will only make it harder for us to find out who's behind it.

00:48:29You're right.

00:48:30I need to keep my head.

00:48:36But how do we catch them?

00:48:37We don't even know their identities, they've not made a single mistake.

00:48:43They might be smart, but we will be smarter.

00:48:48What do you suggest?

00:48:49We will give them something they can't resist.

00:48:54We'll set a trap for them.

00:48:57Do you think they'll fall for it?

00:48:58I mean, they know I'm on this witch hunt right now.

00:49:00They are after the money, right?

00:49:04They may be smart enough to cover their tracks.

00:49:10And they might hide it well.

00:49:14But they are still after the money.

00:49:17Your money.

00:49:18You know what?

00:49:19You're right.

00:49:20I mean, after all this, they are just thieves.

00:49:22Just they want to follow the money.

00:49:25Yeah.

00:49:26Trust me.

00:49:27They will fall for it.

00:49:29And you will catch them red-handed.

00:49:32With their dirty paws in the cookie jar.

00:49:35You will catch them red-handed.

00:49:57What happened?

00:49:59LUCAS?

00:50:01LUCAS!!

00:53:50all of these transactions to untraceable accounts

00:53:54all of these transactions to untraceable accounts

00:54:06all of these transactions to untraceable accounts

00:54:08nathan you are not as clever as you think

00:54:10good

00:54:12You're not as clever as you think.

00:54:15You definitely had some major help.

00:54:20Anya?

00:54:24What are you still doing here?

00:54:26I'm going through company's records.

00:54:28I'm going to finish what Lucas started.

00:54:31It's probably just an era that happened when I'm putting.

00:54:35Mistakes happen sometimes.

00:54:38This looks deliberate, Jessica.

00:54:42If you know something, Jessica,

00:54:44now is the time to speak up.

00:54:47I don't know anything.

00:54:49Why do you even ask me that?

00:54:54I better let you work.

00:54:56Just take it easy.

00:54:58You're scaring some of the faults.

00:55:01Those with something to hide

00:55:03better be afraid.

00:55:09Nathan's name keeps popping up.

00:55:12But who else is involved?

00:55:21I figured you'd still be here.

00:55:24Any leads?

00:55:26Not yet.

00:55:27But I will find whoever did this.

00:55:30Yes, of course you will.

00:55:31Let me know if I can help.

00:55:43I'll find them, Lucas.

00:55:46I promise.

00:55:50Nathan's name keeps appearing.

00:55:52But it doesn't make any sense.

00:55:55He can't be doing this alone.

00:56:00Hey, Anna.

00:56:04How is this going?

00:56:08What do you want, Jessica?

00:56:10I don't have time for this.

00:56:12Don't push yourself so hard.

00:56:15Since when did you start caring?

00:56:19What do you know about these transactions?

00:56:23Nathan handles that department, you know.

00:56:26Maybe he can explain you better.

00:56:30You've been signing off some of these transactions, Jessica.

00:56:34What's going on?

00:56:36It's not a procedure.

00:56:38Nathan tells me to sign off.

00:56:40And I do.

00:56:41Because I assume everything is in order.

00:56:42I assume everything is in order.

00:57:00We'll move the rest of the money soon.

00:57:03Just stay quiet.

00:57:05Anna's already asking questions about you.

00:57:07She's not as clueless as you think.

00:57:12I'll protect you, Lucas.

00:57:38No matter what it takes.

00:57:39Mason signed off on those transfers and he got Jessica to sign on it too.

00:57:48Where did the money go to?

00:57:50I can't find any record of that.

00:57:55How could he be doing this?

00:57:58And who is he sending all this cash to?

00:58:02And I spoke around the financial again, what are we going to do?

00:58:09We're not going to do anything, she's not going to find anything, because we've covered up our asses.

00:58:14But what if?

00:58:16If she gets too close, I'll handle her too, okay?

00:58:19That, that mean, did you pause on Lucas?

00:58:24Were you the one who did that?

00:58:27Stop asking me stupid questions.

00:58:29I said I'll handle it, and I did.

00:58:32That's all you need to know.

00:58:34You heard him!

00:58:38You heard Lucas!

00:58:41You sound just like Anna right now, so naive.

00:58:45I did what I had to do, to cover our asses, okay?

00:58:49Now stop whining and get out of my office!

00:58:53It's taking so long.

00:58:58Anna is getting closer every day, and why are we meeting in this dark parking lot?

00:59:03We have to avoid ice.

00:59:05We're all under heat.

00:59:07As for Anna, we've got her under control.

00:59:10She's smart, but not smart enough to connect the dots.

00:59:13She's closer than you think.

00:59:16You keep underestimating her, and she came going us to rest.

00:59:23I told you to handle it!

00:59:25If she figures out I'm involved...

00:59:27That is your problem, remember?

00:59:30You wanted to end on this.

00:59:34You came to us!

00:59:36We shouldn't fighting ourselves.

00:59:38Our enemy is Anna.

00:59:41We are underestimating her.

00:59:44Well...

00:59:46She shouldn't have gotten that job.

00:59:48Damn there, Lucas!

00:59:50What's done is done.

00:59:52How do we get rid of her?

00:59:54I told you to handle it.

00:59:57If she figures out I'm involved, that is your problem.

01:00:01Remember?

01:00:02Daphne?

01:00:03You wanted to.

01:00:04You too?

01:00:06How deep does this rabbit hole go?

01:00:19I am so close, Lucas.

01:00:21Just hold on.

01:00:24Lucas?

01:00:25Can you hear me?

01:00:35I'll end this.

01:00:36I promise.

01:00:46Anna!

01:00:47What brings you here?

01:00:49Nothing much.

01:00:50I just needed some help understanding these reports.

01:00:59This?

01:01:01This is nothing.

01:01:02It's just routine transactions.

01:01:05Routine?

01:01:07The amounts and frequency don't seem routine to me.

01:01:11You authorized them.

01:01:14Look, Anna.

01:01:15You wouldn't understand.

01:01:16See, Lucas trusted me to handle these complex things.

01:01:21This is why I get paid so much.

01:01:24So Lucas knew about all of this?

01:01:26Lucas knew about the offshore accounts?

01:01:30Let's just say that Lucas doesn't know one hurt him.

01:01:34Or didn't in this case.

01:01:37It was you.

01:01:39You!

01:01:40Careful now.

01:01:41You don't want to go around pointing fingers when you are the prime suspect.

01:01:46I didn't poison Lucas.

01:01:48And you know that.

01:01:49Of course not.

01:01:50But what matters is others don't.

01:01:54When they look at you, they see some opportunistic cold digger.

01:01:59They see someone who tried to kill her boss after warming herself.

01:02:03See you later.

01:02:04See you later.
