Short filmTranscript
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.
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 yours.
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 today.
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, who are you?
00:01:52Which family do you work for?
00:01:54I just came to drop off the flowers, I didn't mean to be true.
00:01:57Luka, look at her.
00:01:59She's hardly a threat.
00:02:00For the flowers, and for the interruption, my apologies.
00:02:14Senor Mancini?
00:02:15Mr. Marco had a widow named Eva Jackson, and she was carrying his child.
00:02:29Get the car.
00:02:31Let me bring my daughter-in-law home, where she belongs.
00:02:35Don't worry, little one.
00:02:45We'll get through this together.
00:02:48Somehow.
00:02:52Well, looky here.
00:02:54Family Jinx is finally six feet under.
00:03:05Derek, have you lost your mind?
00:03:07What the hell was that?
00:03:08Don't tell me that you're actually planning on keeping that little parasite.
00:03:13This is Marco's baby.
00:03:16This is our child.
00:03:17Of course I'm keeping it.
00:03:19Ever since you got knocked up, you've done nothing to help this family.
00:03:24We've been struggling while you've been out here playing the grieving widow.
00:03:28Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.
00:03:33Because you owe me.
00:03:36This is your fault.
00:03:39I dropped out of college for this family.
00:03:42I took five jobs.
00:03:43What more could you possibly want?
00:03:45You'll never be enough, Eva.
00:03:46You'll owe us to the day you die.
00:03:50Please.
00:03:52Sweetheart.
00:03:53Think of your brother.
00:03:58I'm gonna stomp out that little bastard right now.
00:04:01Send him straight to hell.
00:04:03So he can say hello to his deadbeat dad.

00:21:36you want that liability
00:21:37we can't fire her but
00:21:40we certainly can make her life difficult enough
00:21:43that she decides to quit on her own

00:22:47then you won't mind proving your commitment

00:22:54and i'll put all of my concerns to rest
00:22:57i've seen your sales record
00:22:59i know you can do it
00:23:00hahaha
00:23:01to all the doubters, doubters
00:23:11to those who don't believe
00:23:14this is the hour, hour
00:23:18you'll see
00:23:20there will only gliders
00:23:22out of obstacles
00:23:23in stepping stones and roadblocks
00:23:25over the lines
00:23:27I say we won't cross
00:23:28Sir, half an hour until closing, and Mrs. Mancini has already surpassed the store's average monthly sales in a single day.
00:23:49But she's still a great deal short of the manager's impossible target.
00:23:52She did make it clear that she doesn't want any special treatment, but I have been neglecting my own wardrobe.
00:24:03And the Rossi family event will require several new suits.
00:24:06Now that you mention it, sir, your formal collection is missing quite a few essential items.
00:24:11And I should do some personal shopping, shouldn't I?
00:24:19Sir, may I assist you?
00:24:20Um...
00:24:21Sir!
00:24:21This limited edition silk tie would go perfect with your complexions.
00:24:25Sir, I'd be happy to take your measurements, personally.
00:24:28Sir, as store manager, I would be honored to assist you with your needs myself.
00:24:35I'd actually like Miss Jackson to assist me.
00:24:38I hear her taste in mint fashion is exceptional.
00:24:45Shall we begin?
00:24:46Right this way, sir.
00:24:48All right, I just need to take your measurements.
00:24:57Whoa, what are you doing?
00:24:59You measuring buckets?
00:25:02I just needed you to take the jacket off.
00:25:04Well, we don't have much time.
00:25:07Should we do this, should we do this to you?
00:25:13I know.
00:25:19Now, measure me like this.
00:25:26Okay.
00:25:26Ava, time is almost up.
00:25:51I did it.
00:26:10I saved my job, and I made a new sales record.
00:26:16There's no reason to thank me.
00:26:17I'm here to help.
00:26:18Whenever you need help.
00:26:20I hate to do this, but Ava Jackson, you're fired.
00:26:29What?
00:26:30No.
00:26:32I met your target and then some.
00:26:34Oh.
00:26:35That last sale?
00:26:36The 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, because everyone in this store saw me make that sale.
00:26:45I get it.
00:26:52You threaten them into silence.
00:26:54Well, that won't work either, because the security cameras caught everything.
00:26:58Security cameras?
00:27:08What horrible timing.
00:27:10Unfortunately, the security cameras are down for maintenance today.
00:27:14But fortunately, everyone here saw you destroy thousands of dollars worth of merchandise.
00:27:21You all saw Ava, didn't you?
00:27:23Yeah, we all saw it.
00:27:26So someone should call security.
00:27:28Better yet, call the police.
00:27:38I'm sorry, sir, but we're closed for the day.
00:27:40I heard that this store got trashed.
00:27:42I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to call the police.
00:27:45The police work for me.
00:27:47Are you?
00:27:48Luca Mancini?
00:27:49Luca Mancini?
00:27:49I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have to ask you to leave, or I'm going to have
00:28:19Please stop, I admit it, I was wrong.
00:28:46Who really damaged the merchandise of the store?
00:28:48The items that you destroyed are worth over several millions of dollars at five years
00:28:52in prison.
00:28:57Hugo, what happened?
00:28:59There's nothing we're talking about, we need to go.
00:29:00And by the way, you're fired.
00:29:03Let's go.
00:29:04Mom could just do it.
00:29:09Uchadero, questa sronza.
00:29:11How dare that woman mess with my family.
00:29:14I will make sure, personally, that she suffers for it.
00:29:19You don't have to worry about that anymore.
00:29:21It's all taken care of, thanks to Luca.
00:29:24This door looked like a tornado hit it.
00:29:26Mandy will be serving time in a jail cell.
00:29:29Justice is served.
00:29:30That's my boy.
00:29:31Sweetheart, I would like you to concentrate full-time on your pregnancy right now.
00:29:40All of this work drama can wait until after my grandchild is born safely.
00:29:45Yes, Mommy.
00:29:46I transferred five million dollars into your personal account for prenatal care.
00:29:52I am worried about the baby's well-being.
00:29:55Luca, I'd like you to take her to the doctor tomorrow for an exam.
00:29:59No, that's really not necessary.
00:30:05I have those meetings in Europe, so possibly I could have some more substitutory.
00:30:10Yeah, and I'm perfectly capable of going by myself.
00:30:13I don't want to travel, Luca, with something so routine.
00:30:20It's decided.
00:30:22Cancel whatever meetings you have.
00:30:24I want you to take her.
00:30:26I will not stand for any more incidents.
00:30:28Yes, Mother.
00:30:44Ava Jackson, we're ready for you now.
00:30:46Dad should come too.
00:30:48We encourage partner participation.
00:30:49Oh, no, he's not.
00:30:56Would you prefer that I explain that I'm your dead husband's brother?
00:31:00That might be a bit awkward.
00:31:01Mr. and Mrs. Jackson, please come in when you're ready.
00:31:03Coming.
00:31:04Coming.
00:31:04If you could lift your top up slightly and lower your skirt band just a bit, we'll get started.
00:31:24First prenatal checkup together, I'm guessing.
00:31:26The baby looks perfectly healthy.
00:31:35Current length is about three inches with a strong heart rate.
00:31:40Is the baby moving?
00:31:42Yes, indeed.
00:31:44Look there.
00:31:45The little one's making faces.
00:31:48Quite the expressive child already.
00:31:52Dad, don't you want to come take a look?
00:32:04The baby's at 18 weeks, now developing beautifully.
00:32:10For home care, I recommend plenty of rest, nutrient-rich foods, and tactile bonding when possible.
00:32:18Tactile bonding?
00:32:20Yes.
00:32:21It's quite beneficial for fetal development.
00:32:25Come over here and place your hands on her belly.
00:32:28Doctor, is that really appropriate?
00:32:31What's inappropriate about it?
00:32:33This is what husbands do.
00:32:38Okay.
00:32:38Okay.
00:32:48Sorry, did I hurt you?
00:32:53No, no.
00:32:54It just feels strange.
00:32:58Like this.
00:32:59Top to bottom.
00:33:01Left to right.
00:33:02Gentle strokes.
00:33:07Got it?
00:33:09Got it.
00:33:10Do this once daily.
00:33:12Five to ten minutes each.
00:33:15You can sit up now.
00:33:18So, everything good with the baby?
00:33:26Any special instructions I should know about?
00:33:30Nothing.
00:33:30Nothing, no.
00:33:32The doctor did say that the baby is developing beautifully, and there's nothing to worry about.
00:33:38Good news, then.
00:33:41Before I forget, the Rossi family's daughter is having her birthday celebration next weekend,
00:33:47and we should all attend.
00:33:50The Rossi family?
00:33:52Technically, they're our business rivals, but social niceties must be maintained.
00:33:58And she has had an embarrassing crush on Luca since they were little children.
00:34:04Mom, please.
00:34:06Miss Sofia Rossi has arrived unannounced.
00:34:10She shows up without calling?
00:34:12How gauche.
00:34:14Should we send Eva upstairs?
00:34:16No, no, it's fine.
00:34:16I'm here.
00:34:17We can just...
00:34:20Good evening, Mrs. Mancini.
00:34:23Luca!
00:34:24Luca, I came to personally deliver my birthday invitation.
00:34:26Okay.
00:34:30Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:33Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:35Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:34:35Rossi's family lack of manners ever disappoints me.
00:34:39Luca Mancini, how dare you speak to me like that?
00:34:43Miss Rossi, right?
00:34:44I've heard so much about your family.
00:34:47I'm Eva, Marco's wife.
00:34:51Marco was Luca's brother.
00:34:55Oh, okay.
00:34:57I thought you were carrying Luca's baby.
00:35:00That's good, because Luca's mother.
00:35:02I came all this way to bring you that, and this is how you welcome me?
00:35:06Don't disappoint me at the party, darling.
00:35:08Wear something sharp.
00:35:12Yes.
00:35:12Yes.
00:35:12See if there's any connection between that pregnant woman and Luca.
00:35:25I'm not buying this whole sister-in-law act for one second.
00:35:28You got it.
00:35:33You look so handsome.
00:35:35That's fine.
00:35:36Well, well, well.
00:35:40It looks like my stubborn son has good taste after all.
00:35:44Luca did an excellent job selecting this gown.
00:35:47It is perfect for you.
00:35:49Luca picked this?
00:35:53I've never been anywhere this fancy before.
00:35:57I might embarrass you guys.
00:36:00Don't even worry about it.
00:36:02You are my pride and joy.
00:36:04Besides, Luca will be with us the whole time,
00:36:07and he'll make sure everything runs smoothly.
00:36:13Luca?
00:36:14What about her shoes?
00:36:15How could you forget something so basic?
00:36:17What about her shoes?
00:36:30What about her shoes?
00:36:32I can't get in there.
00:36:33Right there.
00:36:51No problem.
00:36:52Just don't want you to fall.
00:37:03Who's that with Mr. Mancini?
00:37:10She's clearly pregnant.
00:37:12Do you think that's Mr. Mancini's baby?
00:37:14I had no idea he was even married.
00:37:16Must be his mistress.
00:37:17Oh, shameless.
00:37:19Everyone, I would like to introduce Ava Mancini.
00:37:23My eldest son, Marco's wife.
00:37:26Marco's wife?
00:37:27She's stunning.
00:37:30This is my birthday party!
00:37:32No, I'm supposed to be the center of attention, not some pregnant woman.
00:37:38Maybe we shouldn't cause a scene here.
00:37:41It's fine.
00:37:42She's always like this.
00:37:45We didn't mean to steal your spotlight.
00:37:48An apology simply isn't enough.
00:37:51Since you're like a sister-in-law,
00:37:53why don't you entertain us all with a performance of some kind?
00:37:57Look, she used to deliver food for a living.
00:38:00Waitress, retail clerk, cleaning lady?
00:38:03What could someone with her background possibly perform for this crowd?
00:38:06Ava, how does this piece go again?
00:38:20I'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.
00:38:26She's just a nobody from nowhere.
00:38:29He has to be setting her up.
00:38:30Even 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.
00:39:01Well, maybe you should teach me sometime, properly.
00:39:06I'd like to play for you both.
00:39:10Because Mom did tell me to look after you,
00:39:13so it's the least that I can do.
00:39:15Okay.
00:39:18Okay.
00:39:25One, two, and there.
00:40:00They're definitely more than in-laws.
00:40:06Look at the way they play together.
00:40:08If I can't have him, I'll destroy them both.
00:40:17Yeah, I always enjoy these type of events.
00:40:20Me too.
00:40:20That had a school night.
00:40:22From Miss Russell.
00:40:24Your compliments.
00:40:25Cheers.
00:40:29Sir.
00:40:30That drink is almost certainly drugged.
00:40:32Obviously.
00:40:33Is the Rossi family making a move against us?
00:40:36These tensions have been simmering for years.
00:40:38Should we respond preemptively?
00:40:44Do nothing.
00:40:46You just need to focus on protecting Ava.
00:40:47I want to see what they have planned.
00:40:57Darling, you look tired.
00:40:59I don't think all this excitement is good for your condition.
00:41:02Why don't you try to find Luca and let's get you home.
00:41:04why don't you try to focus on this?
00:41:06Why don't you try to focus on it?
00:41:06I'll meet you.
00:41:07Okay.
00:41:07Okay.
00:41:08Sofía's bedroom, why is Luca's phone in there and why am I jealous?
00:41:36I've wanted Luca for years and 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 house.
00:42:06This isn't exactly how you wanted it.
00:42:09Not at all. This isn't convincing. Unbutton their clothes.
00:42:12Sal, position them closer together. Make it look more intimate.
00:42:24Perfect. Let's go. Our masterpiece is complete. Now we just have to bring in an audience.
00:42:34I expected much more than this is juvenile prank from my business partner.
00:42:46Ava, wake up. Ava. Ava.
00:43:02Ava. Ava.
00:43:12Oh my God. What happened to us?
00:43:20This is bad.
00:43:36If anyone sees us like this, they'll immediately assume the worst.
00:43:42Luca, wake up.
00:43:52Okay.
00:43:54Jesus.
00:43:56People are coming.
00:43:57You're acting like we had some tort affair. We didn't do anything wrong. So why are you worrying?
00:44:01I'm your late brother's widow and I'm carrying his child. If anyone sees us like this, the Mancini family name will be destroyed.
00:44:09Okay.
00:44:10Okay.
00:44:11Okay.
00:44:12Oh, so Mancini name is what you're concerned about. Is that it?
00:44:17Hey, hey, hey. You haven't answered.
00:44:23Thank you all so much for coming today to celebrate me.
00:44:27But I do have some rather important information to share with you all.
00:44:32I have just discovered Luca Mancini in a rather compromising position with his brother's pregnant widow.
00:44:42In my bedroom.
00:44:52Can you let go?
00:44:56They're coming. It's coming.
00:44:57Hi.
00:45:01Here, I got this. Watch out.
00:45:02Wait, stop. Watch. They're right there.
00:45:04If we walk through that door, we'll walk right into their trap.
00:45:07Okay, then what's your brilliant idea?
00:45:09Yes, ma'am.
00:45:10Um, we...
00:45:12Let's go through the window. We can climb down.
00:45:14Whoa, whoa, whoa, no. I'm afraid of heights.
00:45:17You're what?
00:45:20I'm sorry. I just didn't realize the great Luca Mancini had fears like the rest of us.
00:45:25Yeah, you know, that's one of my fears, and I don't advertise it, so deal with it.
00:45:31What the hell, Steve?
00:45:33Let's go, Steve.
00:45:34Who are these cheaters you promised to expose?
00:45:37Shh, keep it down, you idiot. You don't want to wake them.
00:45:40I mean, we don't want to alert them to give them a chance to escape.
00:45:45Let's go, let's go, let's go.
00:45:48Okay.
00:45:49Hurry, hurry.
00:45:50No, no, no, no, no, don't run. We have to catch them in the act first.
00:45:56Are you insane? Your house is on fire.
00:45:59Who cares about the gossip? Let them get out of here.
00:46:01No, no, no, no, no, I'll help everyone leave afterwards, but first let's get a look at them, come on.
00:46:05Oh, hi.
00:46:15What the hell do you think you're doing? I am so sorry. It was an accident, please.
00:46:21You're fine, it's fine.
00:46:22You're fine, it's fine.
00:46:23You're fine.
00:46:24You're okay?
00:46:25Yeah.
00:46:27The staff prepared everything for you, and there's hot water in there.
00:46:42And what about you?
00:46:47We'll just be out here, taking guard for you. Now go on, it's warm.
00:46:54Thanks.
00:47:12Damn it.
00:47:27What is it?
00:47:29Uh, Miss Rossi is demanding to see you, sir. She's quite insistent.
00:47:33Okay, let her in.
00:47:35You set off the fire alarms and completely scared away my guests. You've ruined my birthday celebration.
00:47:54Hey, you will take full responsibility for what you did. The drugging, the setup, all of it.
00:48:01And if you ever threaten Ava again, directly or indirectly, I will end the Rossi family from this city permanently.
00:48:10You're a monster. That's her in there, isn't it? Ava? Your dead brother's wife? How dare you?
00:48:17Take the water.
00:48:18Get your hands off of me! Do you know who I am?
00:48:21Mama!
00:48:37Luca?
00:48:48Luca!
00:48:49It's me, Michael.
00:48:50Ava, you're so close. It's...
00:48:51Is this a dream?
00:49:00Luca!
00:49:01I'm your brother's wife.
00:49:02So this isn't a dream.
00:49:04I am...
00:49:06Ava...
00:49:08I've had feelings for you for so long.
00:49:10And I've tried to keep them a secret, but I...
00:49:14I can't keep them any longer.
00:49:16And now you know my two secrets, and by family code, I have to silence the person who discovers my weaknesses.
00:49:27Oh my God, let me go.
00:49:29No, no, no, but I can't silence you because, Ava, I have fallen in love with you.
00:49:34Oh God, that's not funny.
00:49:38Look, I've never been more serious.
00:49:40Look, Ava, every time I come around you, I feel myself slipping.
00:49:48And my feelings have crossed that line months ago.
00:49:53Stop, stop, just stop. I'll forget this ever happened.
00:49:58No, Ava, I want to take care of you, and the baby, for the rest of my life.
00:50:10Of this broken dream.
00:50:13Luca.
00:50:14Hi.
00:50:15I know that you're sorry, but you can't let me in.
00:50:21Luca, what's going on? Why isn't Ava home?
00:50:25What's going on here?
00:50:27Mom, I...
00:50:28Nothing.
00:50:30My clothes were dirty, so Luca prepared for me a shower and clean clothes.
00:50:35Oh, thank goodness.
00:50:37The last thing we need is for you to catch pneumonia.
00:50:40Yeah, I know.
00:50:41Ava, I think that we should probably...
00:50:44Luca.
00:50:47It's almost Marco's birthday.
00:50:49Let's visit his grave.
00:50:53He's your brother and my husband.
00:50:56And we don't want to betray his memory.
00:50:59Oh, you poor thing, you must be utterly exhausted.
00:51:02Let's get you home.
00:51:04These Rossi's are nothing but trouble.
00:51:07We need to accelerate our plans against them.
00:51:09Changing hearts.
00:51:13Changing hearts.
00:51:17Changing hearts.
00:51:20Marco.
00:51:23I miss you.
00:51:24I feel so lost without you.
00:51:34Would you hate me if you knew I had feelings for your brother?
00:51:43Ava, are you in there?
00:51:44I meant everything that I said today.
00:51:58And I want to help you get through this and I want to protect you.
00:52:02Marco and Mom, they would both understand.
00:52:07Ava, I love you.
00:52:09I understand how difficult this is.
00:52:12Your loyalty for Marco.
00:52:14And your concern for my mother.
00:52:15That is the compassion that...
00:52:17That's the reason I fell in love with you.
00:52:19It's calm and go...
00:52:20Falling deep, I'm losing...
00:52:21Falling deep, I'm losing...
00:52:22...
00:52:23There's 30 million dollars on this credit card.
00:52:24And the pin number is your birthday.
00:52:26What is it that you just did?
00:52:27I love you.
00:52:28I love you.
00:52:29I love you.
00:52:30Know you.
00:52:31I love you.
00:52:33I love you.
00:52:35You're coming.
00:52:36I love you.
00:52:37I love you.
00:52:38I love you.
00:52:41I love you.
00:52:43Pin number is your birthday.
00:52:45The webs and flows, our last goodbye felt like the end.
00:52:49Can't deny, I can't pretend, that this fire burns again.
00:52:55Illuminating rain.
00:52:59I feel alive, one more time our worlds collide.
00:53:04Watch them circling in the sky, we are magnetic sides.
00:53:11I'm falling...
00:53:12Wait for me.
00:53:13The baby's development is right on track.
00:53:29Perfect, actually.
00:53:31Has your husband been doing those tactile bonding exercises I showed you?
00:53:36Doctor...
00:53:38Actually, he's not exactly my...
00:53:40We don't need to be embarrassed.
00:53:42The way that man looks at you is something special.
00:53:50Now face each other.
00:53:52Helena, take her hands.
00:53:54Deep inhale.
00:53:56And lean into each other.
00:53:58Using each other's weight to support you.
00:54:02Come up.
00:54:08On the exhale, do a gentle squat.
00:54:12And then share and embrace.
00:54:16And then share and embrace.
00:54:22You're funny.
00:54:28Who exactly are you welcoming home, dear daughter-in-law?
00:54:32I was just talking nonsense.
00:54:34I'll get it.
00:54:48Miss, flowers from Mr. Mancini.
00:54:58Yes
00:55:04Are we there bed Seelen...
00:55:06I've listened it.
00:55:08Yes.
00:55:16And now...
00:55:17No...
00:55:18No...
00:55:20No...
00:55:20I wonder if he's doing well out there.
00:55:44Hello?
00:55:45Ava?
00:55:46I'm outside at the gate.
00:55:48Security won't let me in.
00:55:50Mom, what are you doing here?
00:55:56I missed you terribly, sweetheart.
00:55:59I just wanted to check on you and the baby.
00:56:05Look, fresh oranges.
00:56:08Just pick today.
00:56:10You need the vitamin C for the baby's development.
00:56:12I'm on a very carefully monitored diet.
00:56:15You wasted a trip.
00:56:17Look, I know that you haven't forgiven me, but you have to understand.
00:56:26Derek and Sarah, I mean, they would have thrown me out on the street if I didn't go along with them.
00:56:32I mean, what choice did I have?
00:56:34That's not rehash the past.
00:56:38Of course.
00:56:39I picked these up for my grandchild.
00:56:42Aren't they precious?
00:56:45That baby that you're carrying is my family, too.
00:56:49I love them so much already.
00:56:53Look, I stood up for you to Derek.
00:56:56Mom.
00:56:56And he threw me out.
00:56:58I had absolutely nothing left.
00:56:59I had absolutely nothing left.
00:56:59This card contains all the money I've saved.
00:57:12It's yours.
00:57:13But you have to promise me that you'll use it for yourself.
00:57:16Not a penny goes to Derek.
00:57:18Okay.
00:57:19I swear it.
00:57:20Not a cent to him.
00:57:22How much money are we talking about?
00:57:24$10,000.
00:57:24$10,000?
00:57:29That's it.
00:57:30You're carrying the Mancini air and all they've given you is $10,000.
00:57:35That is my personal savings.
00:57:38I haven't asked the Mancinis for a cent.
00:57:40Okay, this is completely unacceptable.
00:57:45Everyone in this city knows that the Mancinis are loaded beyond belief.
00:57:49Come on.
00:57:50You need to milk this situation for all it's worth.
00:57:54Honey, I'm only thinking about your future and your security.
00:58:06I mean, what happens if they throw you out once the baby arrives?
00:58:10I 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.
00:58:19Understand?
00:58:20I understand, sweetheart.
00:58:22Mom won't say another word about it.
00:58:24$10,000?
00:58:31That's it?
00:58:32That's pocket change for them.
00:58:34She must be holding down on this.
00:58:38That ungrateful little brat.
00:58:41I tried everything.
00:58:43I couldn't squeeze another penny out of her.
00:58:45She's swimming in Mancini money.
00:58:47And we're here struggling.
00:58:48After what they did to my leg, I should be getting millions.
00:58:51Yes.
00:58:52A few million?
00:58:53It's just the beginning.
00:58:55We've been thinking too small.
00:58:57I have good reason to believe that we have a common enemy.
00:59:11I think we should work together.
00:59:13Miss Mancini has been sleeping well, sir.
00:59:20She got the prenatal vitamins you sent her, and they effectively reduced her morning sickness.
00:59:26And this morning, she ate half a slice of French toast, a half portion of scrambled eggs, two cherry tomatoes, and a glass of milk.
00:59:34And after some gentle persuasion from your mother, she also had a piece of steak for the iron content.
00:59:40It's good to hear that she's eating healthy.
00:59:42And then she finally attended the prenatal concert we arranged.
00:59:46And afterward, she spoke with one of the pianists about the compositions.
00:59:50Is it man or woman?
00:59:52Sir, per your instructions, they were all talented women.
00:59:55No exceptions.
00:59:55And she actually mentioned you today.
00:59:59While making hot chocolate, she said to the chef, it's never quite as good as Luca's.
01:00:04She always knows what to say.
01:00:08I'll make her a batch right now, and we can have it delivered.
01:00:11Great.
01:00:11I'll arrange a private courier right away.
01:00:19Luca is almost finished with his business.
01:00:22Hopefully, he will make it home in time for the birth.
01:00:25Mrs. Mancini, it's terrible news.
01:00:29Luca's jet has been destroyed amid a flight.
01:00:30He... he's missing.
01:00:32What?
01:00:34Every detail immediately.
01:00:35Yes, ma'am.
01:00:38Ava, breathe.
01:00:39Breathe.
01:00:40Don't panic.
01:00:41Don't panic.
01:00:41Luca has always been lucky.
01:00:43He's going to be fine.
01:00:44He will.
01:00:50Hello?
01:00:50I have Luca Mancini.
01:00:5220 million dollars cash for his safe return.
01:00:55No police, no family, no security team.
01:00:59You come alone, or he dies.
01:01:02You have 24 hours.
01:01:06Oh.
01:01:08Oh, Ava, are you okay?
01:01:10Who was that?
01:01:11It's nothing, nothing.
01:01:12I...
01:01:13I...
01:01:13I'm just dizzy.
01:01:15The...
01:01:16The baby.
01:01:17So I'm going to go upstairs and lay down.
01:01:20Whew.
01:01:21Oh, my God.
01:01:23Here.
01:01:24Here.
01:01:24Here.
01:01:35Luca.
01:01:36Oh, my God.
01:01:37Oh, my God.
01:01:37Money first.
01:01:39Let's go.
01:01:49Ow!
01:01:53You okay?
01:01:56Derek?
01:01:58Where's Luka?
01:02:00Where's Luka?
01:02:01Don't worry about Luka.
01:02:03Worry about yourself.
01:02:09Yeah, with her as our bargaining chip, we can demand a hundred million dollars from the manchips.
01:02:30Easy.
01:02:32Mom.
01:02:33Mom, why are you doing this?
01:02:35Poor family. Why have you always treated me so terribly?
01:02:42Family?
01:02:44You are so pathetic!
01:02:47You just don't get it, do you?
01:02:49You're just some brat that Mom found on the street that she brought home to be our living servant.
01:02:55What are you talking about?
01:02:56You're an orphan!
01:02:57Not even your birth mother wanted you.
01:03:02Yeah, we brought you in.
01:03:04We fed you.
01:03:05We clothed you.
01:03:07And in return, your life belongs to us.
01:03:11Oh, and by the way, since we're being honest with each other right now, my whole leg injury, it's kind of my fault.
01:03:18But it was a great excuse to get you to basically give up your life and be our slave in all these years.
01:03:31You know what?
01:03:34Even 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 role-play thing,
01:03:47I 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!
01:04:01Now let's just keep that pretty little mouth of yours quiet, shall we?
01:04:06You fucking bitch!
01:04:12You fucking bitch!
01:04:13No!
01:04:15No!
01:04:19No!
01:04:35Oh, God, your alive!
01:04:37You're okay!
01:04:39Ah!
01:04:40My plane blew up, Ava gets kidnapped, this isn't a coincidence, who are you looking for?
01:04:52Answer me!
01:04:57Hey, make them stop!
01:04:59He's your brother!
01:05:01They'll kill him!
01:05:02You just told me I'm an orphan, so he's not really my little brother.
01:05:05You better tell me who your accomplices are, or he stops breathing.
01:05:09You two should be ashamed of yourselves.
01:05:12Yeah, I see the way that you look at each other.
01:05:14He's your dead husband's brother.
01:05:17You're a betrayer, Marco, and his mother.
01:05:22Are you alright?
01:05:23Hey, hey, hey, you okay?
01:05:25Yeah, yeah.
01:05:27Your mom has been so kind to me, and I dragged her into this mess.
01:05:31It's on my floor.
01:05:33Your mother-in-law took you in.
01:05:35She treated you like a daughter.
01:05:37Your mother should give you everything that you could ever want, and this is how you repay her?
01:05:41By falling for her younger son?
01:05:44Have you already forgotten, Marco?
01:05:46It is his grave.
01:05:47What 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.
01:06:01Objective then, and you'll lose your tongue.
01:06:04You couldn't have Luca, so you decided to try and kill him?
01:06:21Good thing he changed his flight plan at the last minute, hmm?
01:06:26Cross the Mancini's, and you cease to exist.
01:06:30Release me, my father will burn your empire to the ground.
01:06:37Don't you wonder why my son was gone all that time?
01:06:43Your family's power?
01:06:47Already gone.
01:06:48You two have risked everything to be together.
01:07:04I can see that Luca's devotion is absolute.
01:07:10You have endured far too much pain.
01:07:16It's time to let him take care of you.
01:07:18But, Marco, I made a promise to him.
01:07:23And Marco would want your happiness above all else.
01:07:30He will rest easier,
01:07:32knowing that we are protecting you and your child.
01:07:41From this moment forward,
01:07:43I swear to you, nobody will ever hurt you again.
01:07:50Luca, you're bleeding.
01:07:51You gotta keep this clean.
01:07:57Yeah.
01:07:58Infections can get nasty.
01:08:01Okay.
01:08:03So you're saying that you care about me then?
01:08:06Shut up.
01:08:08Of course I care.
01:08:13All right.
01:08:15Wait.
01:08:15Okay.
01:08:18Okay.
01:08:21I think he likes you.
01:08:43Yeah?
01:08:47Ava,
01:08:48I will take care of you.
01:08:51And the babies.
01:08:53Just like my brother would have.
01:08:55I brought some fruit for you and the...
01:08:57Luca.
01:09:01She's pregnant.
01:09:03Be gentle with her.
01:09:07I think maybe you should get some less.
01:09:10Okay.
01:09:14Oh, wait.
01:09:18What is it?
01:09:18I think I'm in labor.
01:09:20I think I'm in labor.
01:09:21Oh, my God.
01:09:22Come on.
01:09:22Come on.
01:09:22Come on.
01:09:23Come on.
01:09:24Easy, slow.
01:09:29What is taking so long?
01:09:31Is something wrong?
01:09:32She's gone into labor early.
01:09:34Have you two been intimate recently?
01:09:37Well, we didn't exactly...
01:09:39I mean, not completely.
01:09:42I warned you to be careful with her.
01:09:43Mom, I'm sorry.
01:09:45What can we do now?
01:09:46The medication isn't working as we'd hoped.
01:09:49There's another approach we could try.
01:09:52Yes, yes.
01:09:53We'll do anything.
01:09:53Money's no out there.
01:09:54Just help her.
01:09:56Some intimate touches can help her relax and feel better.
01:10:04Right here.
01:10:06Right here.
01:10:07Yes.
01:10:12Mom, I can't.
01:10:14Just whip it out.
01:10:15Don't do it.
01:10:17Hurry it up.
01:10:37I hope things are going smoothly in there.
01:10:50They've never been together before.
01:10:54Never been together?
01:10:56Then how could she be...
01:10:58The child is my late son's.
01:11:01Luca's brother.
01:11:05You okay?
01:11:06Doctor, please.
01:11:08Doctor, please.
01:11:15Three, one, two, three, push.
01:11:18One, two, three, push.
01:11:22One, two, three, push.
01:11:23Push, push, push.
01:11:24Push.
01:11:25Hey.
01:11:42Hi.
01:11:43How you feeling?
01:11:44Good.
01:11:45Want something to eat?
01:11:47I'm okay.
01:11:48Okay.
01:11:48I thought this hospital was the best that money can buy
01:11:55I guess I was misinformed
01:11:57Look
01:11:59They're doing the best they can
01:12:02Let's not terrorize the staff
01:12:03Thank you
01:12:04Look
01:12:06I just don't want to see you in any more pain
01:12:10You would tear me apart
01:12:18Luca
01:12:20Remember to control yourself, son
01:12:24Let her recover first
01:12:27And have you decided what to name this little prince?
01:12:42Marco
01:12:42Marco
01:12:44I want to name him Marco
01:12:46Look, little one
01:13:10It's your daddy
01:13:13Your real daddy
01:13:15It's remarkable how much he looks like
01:13:22Marco
01:13:23I thought you had all the answers
01:13:27And that you handle everything
01:13:30And I promise to protect mom
01:13:33The business
01:13:36And your family
01:13:38Our family
01:13:41You know Marco used to say
01:13:46That
01:13:48If you wanted to think about somebody
01:13:50You would watch the dandelion
01:13:52And if the seeds blew out easily
01:13:54Then they were thinking of you too
01:13:55I hear you on the radio
01:14:00On the radio
