00:23:21Nope.
00:23:22Well, we traced the phone number later to the app.
00:23:24We're about to call it.
00:23:26I'm giving you one chance to tell me the truth before we do.
00:23:30Uh, I...
00:23:32I don't know anything about it.
00:23:33Hmm.
00:23:35She's not involved.
00:24:01I've known you a long time.
00:24:02She's a diligent and honest student.
00:24:05Well, if you hear anything, we expect your cooperation.
00:24:10Of course.
00:24:13Hey.
00:24:22Back from the principal's office.
00:24:24Uh, what was that about?
00:24:27I have to shut it down.
00:24:29Shut what down?
00:24:31Paper Hearts.
00:24:33They're onto me.
00:24:34If I get caught, I'm done.
00:24:35Well, hey, don't worry about it.
00:24:37Look, it's going to be okay.
00:24:38I'm sure you're going to survive without scamming the school out of half of its lunch mine.
00:24:44What did you just say?
00:24:46Nothing.
00:24:47Nothing.
00:24:47Listen, it's just like pocket change.
00:24:49It's going to be okay.
00:24:52You know, you know nothing about real life.
00:24:55Since the day you were born, you've just been shielded by daddy's money.
00:24:59So, write your own stupid letters from now on.
00:25:01Mia, what the...
00:25:03Mia.
00:25:03The last payment didn't go through.
00:25:20I...
00:25:20I can't work right now.
00:25:23I just need a little time.
00:25:24We've got a week, maybe less, before they cut off her treatment.
00:25:29I'll figure it out.
00:25:29I'll figure it out.
00:25:33I'm not dumb enough to link my real phone to the app.
00:25:46Even if they're onto me.
00:25:49I don't have a choice.
00:25:50I don't have a choice.
00:25:51I don't have a choice.
00:25:52I don't have a choice.
00:25:53I don't have a choice.
00:25:54I don't have a choice.
00:25:55I don't have a choice.
00:25:56I don't have a choice.
00:25:57I don't have a choice.
00:25:58I don't have a choice.
00:25:59I don't have a choice.
00:26:00I don't have a choice.
00:26:01I don't have a choice.
00:26:02I don't have a choice.
00:26:03I don't have a choice.
00:26:04I don't have a choice.
00:26:05I don't have a choice.
00:26:06I don't have a choice.
00:26:07I don't have a choice.
00:26:08I don't have a choice.
00:26:09I don't have a choice.
00:26:10I don't have a choice.
00:26:11I don't have a choice.

00:29:56Well, see ya.
00:30:08It's not terrible.
00:30:18You know, that's the nicest thing you've ever said about me.
00:30:20Wait, you actually read her favorite book?
00:30:27Yeah, I did.
00:30:29Very romantic.
00:30:30Very gushy.
00:30:32A lot of stargazing.
00:30:34And just a lot of feelings in general.
00:30:38Yeah, that's called literature, Brad.
00:30:40Well, I see why she likes it.
00:30:46You really like this girl, huh?
00:30:48You know, everybody says that they don't care what other people think about them, and it's not true.
00:30:54You know, but Chloe really just...
00:30:56She does her own thing.
00:30:59You know, she's focused on something other than herself, and I don't know.
00:31:03I think that's really cool.
00:31:08That one's perfect for you.
00:31:13Isn't this a movie with Leonardo DiCaprio?
00:31:16Yeah, yeah.
00:31:17That's the one.
00:31:18Well, why do you think this is perfect for me?
00:31:24Because you're always chasing your green light.
00:31:30Hey.
00:31:30Hey, there you are.
00:31:34I'm looking for you.
00:31:36Well, that's my cue.
00:31:38For real.
00:31:53Hey.
00:31:59I've been thinking about you.
00:32:00Really?
00:32:02Must be hard with Samantha's tongue so far down your throat.
00:32:05What?
00:32:07Hey, babe.
00:32:08Look, what happened?
00:32:09Hey, I promise.
00:32:11Look, you are the only person that matters to me.
00:32:15Okay.
00:32:16Why?
00:32:19Why what?
00:32:20Why do I matter?
00:32:22What are you into?
00:32:25I'm into you, of course.
00:32:26You're okay, but why do you like me?
00:32:33You're really pretty.
00:32:35And, like, you weren't always this pretty.
00:32:39Like, I'll be honest with you.
00:32:40I didn't even realize we were in the same class for a while.
00:32:46Hey, but now?
00:32:47You were, like, really hot.
00:32:51Yeah.
00:32:52Anything else?
00:32:54Uh, what?
00:32:56You, like, trying to confuse me?
00:32:59Okay, wait.
00:32:59You're beautiful.
00:33:03Oh, you already said that.
00:33:07Babe, what?
00:33:07You know, everybody says that they don't care what other people think about them, and it's not true.
00:33:21You know, Chloe really just, she does her own thing.
00:33:25I think that's really cool.
00:33:29I wish you saw me the way you see her, Brad.
00:33:32I wish you saw me the way you see her, Brad.
00:34:02Look, it's already been a couple days, and she still hasn't responded.
00:34:05I'm pretty sure she hates me.
00:34:07No, it hasn't been that long.
00:34:10Maybe I should just talk to her.
00:34:12No.
00:34:13No, that's not how this works.
00:34:15You need to let her wonder.
00:34:17Let her wonder, huh?
00:34:19Yeah.
00:34:19Or maybe, or maybe, now hear me out, I could just talk to her and tell her that I like her.
00:34:26And ruin the mystery?
00:34:29Are you sure you put the letter in her locker?
00:34:31Yes.
00:34:32Brad, I'm sure.
00:34:40Look who's back.
00:34:42Deskrat herself.
00:34:44What's in the back, Brad?
00:34:46Another tragic hoodie, or did Goodwill finally cut you off?
00:34:50Don't.
00:34:51Give it, give it back.
00:34:55Let's see.
00:34:56My dearest Chloe.
00:35:05Oh, my God.
00:35:06No wonder you're a virgin.
00:35:07Too busy playing for the other team.
00:35:09I'm sure to, Samantha, give it back.
00:35:12Yes?
00:35:13It's not funny, please.
00:35:14Hey.
00:35:18What the hell's going on?
00:35:19Samantha, what the hell is your problem?
00:35:26Give me her bag back right now.
00:35:28Since when do you take charity cases side over mine?
00:35:31I know you still love me, Brad.
00:35:33Samantha, you and I had a fling for like a minute.
00:35:36And then you started acting like a complete psychopath.
00:35:39You and me are not a thing.
00:35:41So give me your bag back right now.
00:35:43This is all her fault.
00:35:55Thanks.
00:36:00Brad.
00:36:01You didn't give Chloe the letter.
00:36:04I...
00:36:04Yeah.
00:36:06You lied to me.
00:36:07No.
00:36:08Yeah, you didn't.
00:36:09No, I didn't.
00:36:13No, I didn't.
00:36:36Brad.
00:36:38Please.
00:36:43Who is it?
00:36:54It's Brad.
00:36:59Come in.
00:37:10Why didn't she give her the letter?
00:37:13I don't know.
00:37:16Bullshit.
00:37:17I don't.
00:37:18I don't.
00:37:18What, did you want some money?
00:37:20Was that it?
00:37:20You were just trying to squeeze some more money out of me?
00:37:22Fuck you, Brad.
00:37:24There must have been a reason.
00:37:26Mia, you're the smartest person I've ever met.
00:37:28I refuse to believe that you just didn't know what you were doing.
00:37:30Or that it was an accident.
00:37:31Okay, I'm sorry.
00:37:33I'm really sorry, okay?
00:37:34But I can't keep writing for you anymore.
00:37:37You don't understand how hard it is to make someone fall for you when it's not even you.
00:37:40You.
00:37:40I need you, Mia.
00:37:57I put the letter in Chloe's locker and she wrote back.
00:38:01But I just, I can't read it without you.
00:38:04I'm not doing this anymore.
00:38:14Please.
00:38:14Dear Chloe, I don't know how to tell you what you make me feel without sounding like
00:38:42a total cliche, but when I see you, everything else fades.
00:38:50I like the way that you always bite your pen when you're stuck on a sentence.
00:38:53Like you're trying to scare the words in a place.
00:38:59I like that you don't try to fit in.
00:39:01You just exist.
00:39:02Exactly the way you are.
00:39:11You make the world's chaos quieter just by being in it.
00:39:15Brad.
00:39:16She wrote back.
00:39:42I'm going to throw up.
00:39:44Okay, let's see.
00:39:45Dear stranger, every time I open my locker, my heart sinks if it's empty.
00:39:56Each letter you leave makes the story of my life feel a little more complete.
00:40:01Oh, that's good.
00:40:03But every story has to step off the page eventually.
00:40:07What if we met?
00:40:09What if we met?
00:40:12She wants to meet?
00:40:16Oh, my God.
00:40:17I'm going to go back.
00:40:22I'm going to throw up.
00:40:24Okay, let's see.
00:40:29Dear stranger, every time I open my locker, my heart sinks if it's empty.
00:40:36Each letter you leave makes the story of my life feel a little more complete.
00:40:40Oh, that's good.
00:40:41Oh, that's good.
00:40:43But every story has to step off the page eventually.
00:40:48What if we met?
00:40:50She wants to meet?
00:40:56Oh, my God.
00:41:06What's this?
00:41:08It's the Chloe's favorite band.
00:41:10You want her to think you guys have things in common, right?
00:41:13Yeah, yeah.
00:41:15What about when girls like when guys have their own interests?
00:41:18Okay, but not when their thing is basketball and ripping the alphabet.
00:41:22You remember that?
00:41:24Yeah.
00:41:25That's bad.
00:41:26That's really bad.
00:41:28Oh, my God.
00:41:29Okay, so, let's see.
00:41:31Okay.
00:41:33Chloe's favorite book?
00:41:35Um, The Night Circus.
00:41:39Chloe's favorite movie?
00:41:40Pride and Problems.
00:41:43Prejudice.
00:41:45The movie's called Prejudice?
00:41:47Prejudice.
00:41:47Pride and Prejudice.
00:41:48Oh, Pride and Prejudice.
00:41:49Good job.
00:41:50Okay.
00:41:51All right.
00:41:52What food does she hate?
00:41:54Um, anything with olives.
00:41:57Good job!
00:41:59Hey, look at you.
00:42:00You're not completely a lost cause.
00:42:02Hey, they don't call me B-Rad for nothing.
00:42:05Okay.
00:42:05Um, you're taking her on the first date.
00:42:10Where are you going?
00:42:11The drive-in movie theater.
00:42:13Hmm.
00:42:15Good.
00:42:17Let me ask you something.
00:42:20If someone were to take you on a date, where would you want to go?
00:42:26It's not important.
00:42:28Anyways, I don't drive, so, yeah.
00:42:30You don't drive?
00:42:31I never got my license.
00:42:35You're lying.
00:42:37Oh, my God.
00:42:38Little Miss Overachiever never got her license.
00:42:41This is amazing.
00:42:42It's not funny.
00:42:43It's very funny.
00:42:44It's pretty funny.
00:42:46Wow.
00:42:48Well, lucky for you, Coach Sterling over here is open for driving lessons.
00:42:53No, Brad.
00:42:55It's not happening.
00:42:56Yes.
00:42:57I'm serious.
00:42:58No.
00:42:58No, I'm serious.
00:43:00It's not a joke.
00:43:01It's not going to happen.
00:43:03It's happening.
00:43:03All right.
00:43:13Driver's head time.
00:43:14You ready?
00:43:15I'm not doing it.
00:43:16Come on.
00:43:17You're a genius.
00:43:18How hard to driving you?
00:43:19No, I'm serious.
00:43:20Brad, please just drop it.
00:43:22Look, what are you so afraid of?
00:43:24It's a car, not a shark.
00:43:25You're going to be fine.
00:43:26Yeah, well, my dad died in one.
00:43:28And my mom's been in the hospital ever since.
00:43:30So, uh, I'm not driving.
00:43:38I got an idea.
00:43:40All right, so why don't you just stay right here?
00:43:43Okay.
00:43:45What are you doing?
00:43:57We're going to take it slow.
00:43:59Just like a turtle.
00:44:01And look at...
00:44:02Nothing's going to happen.
00:44:06Do you trust me?
00:44:08I do.
00:44:10Great.
00:44:12Hop on in.
00:44:14Okay.
00:44:15Okay, I got you a gift.
00:44:18I'm okay.
00:44:19Let me see.
00:44:24Cube.
00:44:24Oh, God.
00:44:26You got this.
00:44:31Perfect.
00:44:32All right.
00:44:33That's the brake.
00:44:34That's the gas.
00:44:36We're in drive.
00:44:39That's reverse.
00:44:40Okay.
00:44:40All right.
00:44:42So, it's a new show right now.
00:44:43Whenever you're ready, put it in drive.
00:44:46Slowly put it on the gas.
00:44:48Okay.
00:44:49On the gas.
00:44:51Right on the gas.
00:44:52Hold on.
00:44:54Come on.
00:44:57Okay, all right.
00:44:59Wow, that was great.
00:45:00No, no, no, no.
00:45:01Hey, no, hey.
00:45:02Hey, I got you.
00:45:03I got you.
00:45:04Honestly, not too bad for your first time.
00:45:07I almost killed us.
00:45:08Well, that builds character.
00:45:10Yeah, you did great.
00:45:11I think lesson one is complete.
00:45:15All right.
00:45:15My turn.
00:45:16Ah!
00:45:18A kiss?
00:45:21Oh, my God.
00:45:23Do people really look at each other like that?
00:45:26I mean, come on.
00:45:27Yeah.
00:45:28If they're blind.
00:45:28Watch, I better get a kiss right here.
00:45:33Right here.
00:45:34Oh.
00:45:35Oh, God, babe.
00:45:37Well, look at you.
00:45:40I just don't understand why people think this stuff is, like, so romantic.
00:45:45It's the buildup.
00:45:47The anticipation.
00:45:47You know?
00:45:49If you can kiss your company, goodbye.
00:45:53So, are you sure?
00:45:56I think they're getting more sure of anything in my life.
00:46:06What about your mom and then come to me?
00:46:09Sorry, I need to take this.
00:46:11Okay.
00:46:12Hello?
00:46:14I'll be right there.
00:46:18Mom?
00:46:19You said it was an emergency?
00:46:21It's nothing, sweetie.
00:46:22Just a little scare.
00:46:23I'm fine.
00:46:24And who's this handsome young man?
00:46:28Your boyfriend?
00:46:30Yes, yes.
00:46:31Hi, I'm Brad Sterling.
00:46:32It's great to meet you, ma'am.
00:46:34Oh, you were quite the catch.
00:46:37What are your intentions with my daughter?
00:46:40Mom?
00:46:40He's not my boyfriend.
00:46:46Her heart is failing faster than we expected.
00:46:49She needs a transplant within the week.
00:46:52How much?
00:46:53Even with insurance, you're looking at $200,000.
00:46:57Yeah, no.
00:46:58There are other options.
00:46:59It's okay.
00:47:00I'll figure it out.
00:47:01Man.
00:47:01Trust me.
00:47:03I'll figure it out.
00:47:06I'm such a freaking idiot.
00:47:21This whole time, paper hearts, it's...
00:47:25That's why you're doing it.
00:47:26Yeah, but Brad, I'm stuck.

00:56:37I don't care about any of that.
00:56:38Then what do you want?
00:56:40I want the truth.
00:56:41Why is Brad always with you?
00:56:47I need to tell him about Samantha.

00:56:53Hey.
00:56:53Thanks.

00:57:01Hey, Mia.
00:57:03Mia.
00:57:05Hey, I've been looking everywhere for you.
00:57:07I am Chloe.
00:57:09This is Mia, my good friend.
00:57:12And Mia, this is Chloe.
00:57:15My girlfriend.
00:57:17Hi.
00:57:18Brad talks about you all the time.
00:57:20Yeah, same.
00:57:21Um, I actually had something to tell you.
00:57:26Yeah, what's up?
00:57:28Uh, I, I broke up with Dan.
00:57:33Oh, really?
00:57:35Well, that's great.
00:57:36He's a total moron.
00:57:38Yeah, I'm sure you deserve much better.
00:57:40Yeah.
00:57:41Well, it's you guys around.
00:57:43Hey, Mia, why don't you come to the gateway?
00:57:46Yeah, I'll sit with you if you want.
00:57:48Yeah, it'll be great.
00:57:49Yeah, maybe.
00:57:50I'll see you guys around.
00:57:52Okay, I'll have you there.
00:58:14Hell of a love story, isn't it?
00:58:17Shame, it's all a lie.
00:58:19Chloe, I figured out why you were writing those letters.
00:58:22Shut up.
00:58:23Here's the deal.
00:58:24You tell Chloe the truth, that you're the one writing all those sweet little letters,
00:58:29or I do.
00:58:30And if I do, the principal gets your whole file.
00:58:37Now.
00:58:38Go on.
00:58:55Go on.
00:58:55Okay.
00:58:56Sorry.
00:59:01Excuse me.
00:59:02Just coming through.
00:59:03Sorry.
00:59:08Hey, Chloe.
00:59:09Oh, my God.
00:59:10Hi.
00:59:10I'm so glad you're here.
00:59:11Yeah.
00:59:12It's a good game.
00:59:14I need to tell you something.
00:59:15I need to tell you something.
00:59:16Oh, my gosh.
00:59:18Matt, are you okay?
00:59:19I'm okay.
00:59:24Are you okay?
00:59:25I'm okay.
00:59:26I'm okay.
00:59:26I'm okay.
00:59:28I'll be back.
00:59:29Oh, good luck.
00:59:29Good luck.
00:59:30Okay.
00:59:30I got this.
00:59:33What were you going to say, Mia?
00:59:37Um, I need to tell you, um, I've been...
00:59:44Go on.
00:59:45Tell her.
00:59:50I...
00:59:51Ugh, I knew you'd chicken out, but I didn't write those letters.
00:59:57What?
00:59:58Our little ghostwriter here did.
01:00:00Every word.
01:00:02They were just messing with you.
01:00:03Both of us.
01:00:04Chloe, it's not like that.
01:00:06At all.
01:00:07So, everything was a lie?
01:00:10It wasn't a lie.
01:00:11At all.
01:00:12I...
01:00:12Oh, Chloe.
01:00:15Wait, I...
01:00:17No.
01:00:22Where are you going, Matt?
01:00:29Unbelievable.
01:00:32All this work, Captain Love's story, ditches the team.
01:00:36That is some stupid girl.
01:00:41God.
01:00:43I bet he's been fucking desk rat as new chick found out.
01:00:46No, actually, I heard she's been screwing Professor Luke for her grades.
01:00:56Probably half the faculty.
01:00:58It's a shame that, uh, a pathetic whore cost us the game.
01:01:02What the hell did you just say?
01:01:05What the hell did you just say?
01:01:07Relax, man.
01:01:10If you're into leftovers, that's your call.
01:01:13What the hell is your problem?
01:01:24What the hell is your problem?
01:01:29Don't you ever talk about her like that again.
01:01:30Brad?
01:01:44What about me?
01:01:47You would have told me everything, huh?
01:01:49No.
01:01:49Everything?
01:01:50Oh, what's wrong with your head?
01:01:52Captain, my captain.
01:01:55What's up to you, little bitch?
01:01:56Hold it.
01:01:57You think you're some kind of hero?
01:02:01Oh, my gosh.

01:03:16Oh.

01:03:24I wish I would have just stayed invisible to you.
01:03:29None of this would have ever happened.
01:03:37I would have never fallen for you.
01:03:39Oh.
01:03:55It's you.

01:06:54Some people are just desperate.
01:07:09Oh my gosh.
01:07:14What do you want? I did what you asked.
01:07:17Except you didn't.
01:07:19And now it's time to pay the price.
01:07:20No, I told her the truth.
01:07:25You chickened out.
01:07:26And now Brad's still with her.
01:07:28Not me.
01:07:29It's not my fault that he hates you.
01:07:31Please.
01:07:32If it weren't for your little love letters,
01:07:34he wouldn't even know she exists.
01:07:36You're seriously blaming this on me
01:07:38because he doesn't want to be with you?
01:07:41You need help.
01:07:42Give it back.
01:07:46Excuse me.

01:07:54Oh, just call it interest
01:07:55for fucking up my love.
01:07:57You're going to regret that.
01:08:10Help! Help!
01:08:12Please, she's attacking me.
01:08:15May it works.
01:08:16Please respond to the principles of this immediately.
01:08:23Any other student would be expelled for this.
01:08:26But, give me your academic record
01:08:28to a week's suspension.
01:08:31Effective immediately.
01:08:32What?
01:08:33Principal Matthews, you can't do this.
01:08:35I need to be at school.
01:08:36I have nothing else.
01:08:37She stole my money.
01:08:39What money?
01:08:39Where would someone like her even get money?
01:08:42That's all, Mia.
01:08:43You can go.
01:08:43No.
01:08:47I said you can go.
01:08:48Turn.
01:08:51She's...
01:08:51I said you can go.
01:08:56Samantha.
01:09:00Samantha.
01:09:02Please.
01:09:02I need that money for my mom's surgery.
01:09:04Not my problem.
01:09:05I can't just...
01:09:06Take what's not yours.
01:09:08Isn't that exactly what you did with Brad?
01:09:10At this rate, it'll take me a decade to earn the money back.
01:09:19Oh, my goodness.
01:09:22Death rats slinging wieners and beef.
01:09:26That's a pretty bad point.
01:09:27Leave me alone.
01:09:28Why?
01:09:30You got any footlongs here, or is that pro bono just for the faculty?
01:09:32Get out of here.
01:09:36What are you doing?
01:09:38Hmm.
01:09:40Oops.
01:09:42You know, this is your penis.
01:09:44Hey.
01:09:45It's all downhill from here.
01:09:47It's gone.
01:09:48Oh, my God.
01:09:49What the hell is going on?
01:09:51It wasn't me.
01:09:52I swear.
01:09:52This comes out of your paycheck.
01:09:54What?
01:09:55I...
01:09:56I'm so sorry.
01:09:58I'm...
01:10:02You're lucky she got you to the hospital in time.
01:10:16Who?
01:10:18Mia.
01:10:19She drove you.
01:10:20No.
01:10:21No, Mia can't drive.
01:10:24She did that right.
01:10:25I...
01:10:25Jackson, you looks like you were about to meet Jesus back there.
01:10:35This part's my favorite.
01:10:36The way they realized they loved each other all along.
01:10:40Right.
01:10:41After three conversations and a kiss in the rain.
01:10:44Very realistic.
01:10:47It's romantic.
01:10:50It's cheesy.
01:10:50It's cheesy.
01:10:51You don't have to watch with me.
01:10:57No, I want to.
01:10:58I want to.
01:10:59I'm sorry.

01:11:02Okay.
01:11:03Okay.
01:11:03Hi, Dad.
01:11:25I wish you were here.
01:11:37Did you know how to fix this?
01:11:41Mom's really sick.
01:11:44She's really sick.
01:11:47And I can't save her.
01:11:48And I've tried so hard.
01:12:03Why did you leave?
01:12:07Oh, my God.
01:12:08Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
01:12:10I got you.
01:12:13You okay?
01:12:14Hey, hey.
01:12:16It's okay.
01:12:16Okay.
01:12:18It's okay.
01:12:31It's all over.
01:12:33All the money is gone.
01:12:38Even if I worked every second, it wouldn't be enough.
01:12:41You know, when I came out here and I saw you, I got so scared.
01:12:53It's like that took everything.
01:12:55I know.
01:12:55Every cent.
01:12:57And she knows who I am.
01:12:59She knows about me.
01:13:01And I'm paper hearts.
01:13:02Well, then we will do everything that we can to make sure that she gives it back.
01:13:07How?
01:13:09How?
01:13:09She has all the cards in her hands.
01:13:11If she exposes me, I'm done.
01:13:13No school.
01:13:14No future.
01:13:15Nothing.
01:13:18You know what?
01:13:18Let's turn the tables.
01:13:29Keith, let's go.
01:13:40You called for me, Principal Matthews?
01:13:42Yes, come in.
01:13:47Have a seat, please.
01:13:54Hi, Samantha.
01:13:55So, Principal Matthews, Mia did not lie about everything.
01:14:01Samantha was the one that stole everything.
01:14:03Everything from the car wash, everything that Mia worked so hard to get.
01:14:07Even if that were true, which it's not, how would a charity case like her have thousands just lying around?
01:14:14Here's your proof.
01:14:17Every single cent went right into Samantha's bank account.
01:14:20Mr. Matthews, they're just trying to blackmail me because I know the truth about Mia.
01:14:24You know what, Samantha?
01:14:24Samantha, this is exactly why I broke up with you.
01:14:27Because you lie.
01:14:28You lie and you manipulate and you don't care who gets hurt along the way as long as you get what you want, right?
01:14:34You want to play a back game?
01:14:36Fine.
01:14:36You want to talk about liars?
01:14:38Here's your perfect straight A student running a whole cheating empire under your nose.
01:14:44Paper hearts.
01:14:45That's her.
01:14:46And when I found out, they threatened me and she attacked me.
01:14:51She told me that if I told anyone, she would kill me.
01:14:54So, I just couldn't hide it anymore.
01:14:57Is this true?
01:15:00This is ridiculous.
01:15:03No, it's not.
01:15:04Because I run paper hearts.
01:15:05I always have.
01:15:08And Mia has never had anything to do with it.
01:15:11Do you fully understand the consequences of your confession, Brad?
01:15:15Yes, I do.
01:15:17So, you expect me to believe a student like you, who's barely turned in a completed essay his entire high school career?
01:15:26Well, that was exactly the point.
01:15:30No one would ever suspect it was me.
01:15:32You didn't.
01:15:33But yes, I ran paper hearts.
01:15:35I hired people to write the essays.
01:15:37I ran the app.
01:15:39I handled all the finances.
01:15:40And I made sure that it would never get traced back to me.
01:15:44Mia is a great, very hardworking student.
01:15:47And she would never do anything like this.
01:15:50She had nothing to do with it.
01:15:51I promise.
01:15:52Well, where did Mia get the money?
01:15:55Frankly, sir, I have no idea.
01:15:56But honestly, however much money is in Mia's bank account is really, well, none of our business.
01:16:02Brad, you expelled effective immediately.
01:16:07Samantha, so are you.
01:16:09What?
01:16:10Now, I'm willing to keep this quiet and not involve the police.
01:16:14But if you want to press show look,
01:16:16theft of this amount will put you behind bars for five years.
01:16:20Now, maybe your daddy's attorneys and lawyers can shave it down one or two years.
01:16:27It's your choice.
01:16:35Thanks, sir.
01:16:36Well, well, well.
01:16:55Looks like Deserat is out of job.
01:16:57You know, maybe you should look at the corner.
01:17:02And by the way, word of advice, I heard it pays better if you don't use protection.
01:17:11That's for every piece of shit thing you've ever said to me.
01:17:18Remind me of an extra piece you want.
01:17:20You already do.
01:17:22Thanks.
01:17:23Well, let's go to the hospital.
01:17:25Yeah.
01:17:25Oh.
01:17:27Oh.
01:17:28We have the money.
01:17:33Please, where's my mom?
01:17:35You're two hours late.
01:17:36We couldn't wait any longer.
01:17:38We had to move on to the next patient.
01:17:43Well, doctor, can you move her back into the room?
01:17:46That's not how this works.
01:17:48Well, it is tonight.
01:17:49Hey, Brad.
01:17:49Hey, it's okay.
01:17:51Listen, doctor.
01:17:52Grab every single doctor, every single nurse,
01:17:54every person that you need to make this operation happen
01:17:56so we can save this beautiful woman's life tonight.
01:18:04Wait here.
01:18:10Hey.
01:18:10Hey.
01:18:11Hey.
01:18:12We're too late.
01:18:13We're not too late.
01:18:15It's going to be okay.
01:18:16I promise.
01:18:17I promise.
01:18:17I promise.
01:18:26You're thinking so loud.
01:18:32I can hear it.
01:18:36I'm just glad you're okay, Mom.
01:18:40That's not all.
01:18:52Mom, how did you know you were in love with Dad?
01:18:54We were at this terrible karaoke bar.
01:18:59Oh, thanks.
01:19:01Neither one of us could sing to save our lives.
01:19:05But he got up anyway.
01:19:07Sang horribly.
01:19:10Just to make me laugh.
01:19:15Everyone was staring.
01:19:19But all I could see was him.
01:19:20That's it?
01:19:27Love isn't some big moment, sweetie.
01:19:31It's the little ones.
01:19:33That make you feel seen.
01:19:36Safe.
01:19:37You don't have to be anybody but yourself.
01:19:41Yeah.
01:19:45Mom, I think I'm going to mess everything up.
01:19:48Good thing you're the best fixer I know.
01:20:04Why did you do all of this for Mia?
01:20:07I don't know.
01:20:07Because she's my friend.
01:20:10I think you do know.
01:20:11We're too different.
01:20:31But you and her...
01:20:32You always made sense.
01:20:36Yeah.
01:20:36Yeah.
01:20:38Write your own words this time.
01:20:43Please welcome to the stage, the one and only
01:21:13valedictorian Mia Brooks. Congratulations. Thank you. I'm so proud of you. Thanks. Absolutely.
01:21:23Oh, wow. Um, good afternoon, everyone. Um, I had a whole speech planned about hard work and
01:21:34dedication and all the usual stuff you're supposed to say. I've spent so much of my life
01:21:40writing words for other people. It feels wrong not to write this moment for myself. I want
01:21:48to talk about love. Love isn't some perfect story with a guaranteed happy ending. It's
01:21:58confusing, terrifying. It makes you mess up over and over and over again. Because suddenly
01:22:09someone else's happiness matters more than your own. And sometimes the scariest part isn't even
01:22:18falling for someone. It's letting them see you, all of you, and trusting that they won't walk away.
01:22:27I spent so much time writing stories for everyone else. I think it's time I write my own.
01:22:33congratulations, class of 2025. Oh, it's time I take my own advice. Bye.
01:22:42What the heck? Well, the show must go on, everyone. We have our next runner-up valedictorian,
01:22:48Chloe Hartwell.
01:22:55Brad.
01:22:57Yeah? What are you doing? You're supposed to be at graduation.
01:23:01Yeah, why aren't you at graduation?
01:23:03I already got my diploma. No ceremony for me.
01:23:09Um.
01:23:10My parents are moving tomorrow. New investment, new time.
01:23:15Um. To tomorrow?
01:23:20You were just going to leave without saying anything?
01:23:25I figured you'd be better off.
01:23:33I got your letter.
01:23:36Yeah.
01:23:40Any notes?
01:23:42I got too scared to read it.
01:23:45I thought we could do it together.
01:23:50But first, there's something I want to say.
01:23:54You're the most
01:23:54annoying,
01:23:57stubborn,
01:23:59frustrating person I've ever met.
01:24:04And I love you.
01:24:07I love you, and
01:24:08I'm done pretending, so if you don't feel the same way,
01:24:11just tell me right now.
01:24:11I love you.
01:24:11I love you.
01:24:11I love you.
01:24:11I love you.
01:24:11I love you.
01:24:11I love you.
01:24:13Yeah, you really should have read that letter.
01:24:23Why?
01:24:27Because then you'd already know how I feel.
01:24:28I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I
01:24:58I'm going to tell you if you knew this too
01:25:04I'm ready to be right with you
01:25:08I feel my sweaters right now
01:25:12It's just you and me, boy
01:25:14But either I don't trust someone talking so deeply
01:25:20Don't take your eyes off me, baby
01:25:23I don't know what I need
01:25:26When I saw, I looked forward to the future
01:25:30What I've always used to do for you
01:25:32I got a lot of money
01:25:34My son, my son, my son
01:25:38My son, my son, my son
01:25:41I got a place on a face
01:25:44My son, my son, my son
01:25:46I got a place on my side
01:25:49My son, my son, my son
01:25:51I got a place on my side
01:25:53If we're going to make this long-distance thing work, you're going to have to learn how to drive.
01:26:20I'm already regretting this.
01:26:21Good, that's the spirit.
01:26:23We're going to die.
01:26:25No, we're going to be great.
01:26:28This is going to be awesome.
01:26:30Ready?
01:26:31Yep.
01:26:36Not too bad, huh?
01:26:38Not too bad.
01:26:39It's gonna be a big deal.
01:26:39It's gonna be a big deal.
01:26:40It's gonna be a big deal.
01:26:40Yeah, it's gonna be a big deal.
01:26:40Oh, yeah.
01:26:40So, what now?
01:27:10Anything?
01:27:12Everything?
01:27:14Sounds terrifying.
01:27:16Not with you.
01:27:30Ready to go?
01:27:31Yeah.
01:27:32You're driving.
01:27:34Sounds good.
01:27:36Let's go.
01:27:38Let's go.
01:27:40Let's go.
01:27:42Let's go.
