00:00:00My first day at Looney University, the school my family's ruled for generations.
00:00:09Don't bother signing up for fencing, no.
00:00:11Scared I'll beat you?
00:00:12As if.
00:00:14We both know that I'm winning nationals and qualifying for the Olympics.
00:00:17While I'm going for gold, you'll be going for minimum wage at Burger King.
00:00:22Oh my god, what are those?
00:00:25The Ashworth twins?
00:00:27Their dad is the Olympic fencing champion.
00:00:30Their last name is on our gym.
00:00:33Hi, nice to meet you, I'm Melody.
00:00:37You're the Lauren Ashworth?
00:00:39Oh, um, hold these.
00:00:42Thanks.
00:00:44Later, loser.
00:00:48My biggest fight won't be fencing.
00:00:50It'll be finally stepping out of Lauren's shadow.
00:01:00It's Melody Ashworth.
00:01:02You finally decided practice is worth your time?
00:01:04I'm so sorry I got lost.
00:01:05I first practiced and I've already pissed off Roman Wright.
00:01:09Retired world champion and my new coach.
00:01:13Do not be late again.
00:01:14Congratulations.
00:01:17You've made the most elite college fencing team in the world.
00:01:22I'm your coach, Roman Wright.
00:01:24I'll be shaping you into champions.
00:01:25See what we're working with.
00:01:27Who volunteers for a bout?
00:01:30Melody volunteers.
00:01:31I'll do it.
00:01:52On guard.
00:01:54On guard.
00:01:58Impressive.
00:02:00The Ashworth reputation doesn't disappoint.
00:02:04She's incredible.
00:02:09You almost had me there.
00:02:12I'm just warming up.
00:02:13Wow, Mel
00:02:23Great technique
00:02:25You messed with my sword
00:02:28This is what happens when you don't take proper care of your equipment
00:02:32Sir, I
00:02:32I expected better from you
00:02:33Since you can't practice, run laps
00:02:36Everybody else, pair off
00:02:43Coach Wright, do you think you can help me with my stance?
00:02:52Okay
00:02:53Let's get really deep down
00:03:05Good job today everyone, I'll see you next week, okay?
00:03:08Keep up the good work
00:03:13You set me up, you messed with my sword
00:03:20Admit it
00:03:21Welcome to college Mel
00:03:24Here's your first lesson
00:03:26I'm a champion
00:03:27And you
00:03:28You're just a train wreck
00:03:31And I think Roman can see that
00:03:33Screw you
00:03:34I want a fair fight right now, you and me
00:03:36Fine
00:03:41You're a glutton for punishment sis
00:03:45Lender your sword
00:03:49Try not to break it this time
00:03:52Game on sis
00:03:55En garde
00:03:56Good
00:03:58Good
00:03:59Allez
00:04:02Point Melody
00:04:08Point Lauren
00:04:09Next point wins
00:04:12I'm just as good as you
00:04:13We'll see about that
00:04:14I win and...
00:04:27You cry
00:04:28I guess some plans never change
00:04:32Alright, come on girls
00:04:34Let's get out of here and leave her with what's left of her dignity
00:04:37Hi
00:04:39Hi
00:04:40Hi
00:04:43Hi
00:04:45Hi
00:04:46Yeah
00:04:48Hi
00:04:51Hi
00:04:54Hi
00:04:55Hi
00:04:57Hi
00:04:59Hi
00:05:01Hi
00:05:03Hi
00:05:05Hi
00:05:06Midnight training session?
00:05:21Well, I need the work, obviously.
00:05:24Yeah, I see.
00:05:33Your work hurts.
00:05:36There.
00:05:38Sit.
00:05:39I'm fine.
00:05:40It wasn't a suggestion.
00:05:41Sit.
00:05:42If you push through this pain, you're going to break yourself.
00:06:09Don't be reckless.
00:06:12What if I want to be reckless, coach?
00:06:19Do not tempt me, Miss Ashworth.
00:06:21You got her challenging your sister, didn't you?
00:06:34You read this.
00:06:42You hear what I said?
00:06:43You hear what I said?
00:06:45What?
00:06:46You got her challenging your sister, didn't you?
00:06:48How did you know?
00:06:49I noticed things.
00:06:51You're dedicated, but you're rough around the edges.
00:06:53You're serious about beating your sister.
00:06:54I can train you.
00:06:56You will?
00:06:57If you're willing to wake up early,
00:07:00meet me on the field 6 a.m. sharp on Friday.
00:07:02Do not be late.
00:07:04Miss Melody, there's a car waiting for you up front.
00:07:31What?
00:07:31I didn't ask for a car.
00:07:33Shut up, stupid.
00:07:56We're not being murdered.
00:07:57What the hell is happening?
00:08:02God.
00:08:27Ah, there they are, my champions.
00:08:30Dad, I had another class.
00:08:32Yeah, and I had a date. Daddy, it's literally only the second day of college.
00:08:36Silence!
00:08:42According to centuries-old Ashworth tradition, your first year at university determines your fate.
00:08:49Whoever wins the fencing championship in June shall inherit our estate.
00:08:56The other shall be removed from the will.
00:09:02When an Ashworth generation bears two children of equal age, only one may inherit our legacy.
00:09:09This honor must be decided in their 21st year according to a duel.
00:09:15Dad, are you drunk?
00:09:17Sober as the edge of a blade.
00:09:20So you're saying one of us is gonna get kicked out of the will by the end of the year?
00:09:24We'll fund a championship bout at the university. My twin brother and I competed there decades ago, as did the last twins before us.
00:09:33Wait, so that's why Uncle Rob lives in a hut off the grid?
00:09:36And you went to the Olympics.
00:09:38This is not a game. No distractions, no cheating, no bribery, or sabotage.
00:09:44This is a test of skill. Only clean fencing.
00:09:51That's easy. Because I was born for this. So was I.
00:09:56If I don't beat Lauren at the end of the year, I'll lose everything.
00:10:08There's an exclusive varsity athlete party tonight and you're all invited.
00:10:13See you there.
00:10:21Melody, are you coming?
00:10:22Oh, no. Melody is not invited.
00:10:26The only reason why she's even on our team is because of our family name.
00:10:29Which she won't be having much longer.
00:10:32I don't care about your party.
00:10:34No.
00:11:04Lauren, you've stepped on me our whole lives.
00:11:20That changes tonight.
00:11:21You made it!
00:11:47Nice goodwill dress.
00:11:52You're not invited.
00:11:54I thought the party was for winners only, so I thought you weren't invited.
00:11:59Bitch.
00:12:00Let me get you a drink.
00:12:04I've never been to a party before or had a drink before.
00:12:08Okay, what are you doing?
00:12:10You don't owe her your time.
00:12:12Come on.
00:12:14Hello.
00:12:14Can you not be a pig?
00:12:17Let's go.
00:12:19Excuse.
00:12:20No, choose.
00:12:21No, choose.
00:12:22Let's go, bitches.
00:12:39Come on, everyone.
00:12:41Let's start playing.
00:12:42Yay!
00:12:44Justin.
00:12:47Truth or dare?
00:12:49Dare.
00:12:54Well, I dare you to kiss the hottest girl in the room.
00:13:00Oh, my God.
00:13:09What?
00:13:10Her?
00:13:10You must be joking.
00:13:12Kind of like how you were joking when you cheated at our fencing match.
00:13:15Shut up, attention whore.
00:13:17You act like you're untouchable, but you still sleep with Mr. Bear just like when you were five.
00:13:22That is not true.
00:13:23Here, look, I have a picture.
00:13:25Look.
00:13:29That's not funny.
00:13:31You know what else isn't funny?
00:13:33She bribed the judges so that she'd win skates our junior year of high school.
00:13:38Shut up!
00:13:40You're such a liar.
00:13:41None of that ever happened.
00:13:43Enjoy your party.
00:13:44Bye, bitch.
00:13:45Roman, right?
00:14:02I challenge you to a duel.
00:14:07I challenge you to a duel.
00:14:10No.
00:14:10You scared I'll win?
00:14:13Yeah, you're drunk.
00:14:14You're going to poke your own eye out.
00:14:16No one believes in me.
00:14:18Come on.
00:14:21That's enough.
00:14:23Let go.
00:14:24Fight me.
00:14:30I'm going to lose.
00:14:32Lauren's going to beat me at the end of the year, and I'm going to get kicked out of my family's will.
00:14:36Not if I train you.
00:14:38You remember?
00:14:396 a.m. tomorrow morning?
00:14:41Or did you forget?
00:14:48Go.
00:14:56You're impossible.
00:15:09Well, well.
00:15:10She lives.
00:15:12I regret my entire life.
00:15:14Champions train under brutal conditions.
00:15:17Even self-inflicted ones.
00:15:20Fantastic.
00:15:21I'll poison myself before every practice.
00:15:23He wouldn't be the first college athlete to try that.
00:15:25Okay, come.
00:15:26Stretch.
00:15:26This will help your injury.
00:15:42That feels good.
00:15:42Um, suit up.
00:15:50Since your right hand is injured, I'll train with your left.
00:15:53I can't.
00:16:04Yes, you can.
00:16:06Come on.
00:16:06On guard.
00:16:11Up.
00:16:15This is humiliating.
00:16:16I feel like a total beginner.
00:16:17Hey, you said you wanted to fight.
00:16:20So channel all your resentment for how early it is, or your anger from your sister, and fight me.
00:16:30Up.
00:16:30Again.
00:16:41You're too stiff.
00:16:43Relax your wrist, and your stance is off.
00:16:45Again.
00:16:53Well done.
00:16:55But it could be better.
00:16:57Can I have my victory for two seconds?
00:16:58Hey, you're still favoring your right side.
00:17:00Okay, try shifting your weight.
00:17:02Here.
00:17:04Here.
00:17:05With your legs.
00:17:07There you go.
00:17:20Something hurt?
00:17:22Can he tell what I'm thinking?
00:17:24Is it obvious?
00:17:27Our training session's over.
00:17:30Go get ready for class.
00:17:31No, we just started making progress.
00:17:32I said we're done.
00:17:35You feel it, too?
00:17:40It's not gonna happen.
00:17:42We're both adults.
00:17:44I'm your coach.
00:17:46Okay, I can lose my position.
00:17:47And you can lose your shot at the championship.
00:17:49I've spent my entire life fencing, studying, and keeping my head down while Lauren went off and chased whoever she wanted.
00:17:55Okay, so go find a guy your own age.
00:17:57I deserve to break the rules for once.
00:18:01Don't you want me?
00:18:02It's unprofessional.
00:18:04But do you?
00:18:16I can't.
00:18:17Okay, do not ask me again, or I won't be able to train you.
00:18:19Hey, Dad.
00:18:31Your sister warned me you might be distracted from the competition.
00:18:36Should I be worried?
00:18:37No.
00:18:38No distractions.
00:18:47Did Melody really blow Coach Wright?
00:18:50She practically begged him.
00:18:52So embarrassing.
00:18:54Well, that's one way to win championships.
00:18:59Ignore them and stay focused.
00:19:01From now on, no more distractions.
00:19:08Today, we'll be using practice gloves for tactical training.
00:19:15Hi, Coach Wright.
00:19:18Remember, fencing is about physical and mental control.
00:19:22In the heat of the fight, you'll want to give in to your impulses.
00:19:25How many you do, you've lost.
00:19:29All right, pair off.
00:19:31On guard.
00:19:37Pret.
00:19:38All right.
00:19:49Miss Ashworth, your tempo's off and your recovery's sloppy.
00:19:53Nice form.
00:19:54Excellent work.
00:19:57All right, that's it for today, everyone.
00:20:00You're free to go.
00:20:01Not you.
00:20:06Run ten laps.
00:20:08Seriously?
00:20:25What the hell's your problem?
00:20:26First, you pretend like I don't exist, and then you publicly humiliate me while I'm winning?
00:20:33You asked for this.
00:20:36I didn't ask for you to humiliate me and punish me.
00:20:38Do you want to be a champion?
00:20:40You want to beat your sister?
00:20:41It's not going to happen if I'm soft on you.
00:20:43Bullshit.
00:20:43Bullshit.
00:20:45This isn't about fencing.
00:20:46This is about what happened between us this morning.
00:20:48I don't know.
00:20:48I don't know.
00:20:48I don't know.
00:20:49I don't know.
00:20:49I don't know.
00:20:50happened. Yeah. Nothing happened. I told you he's not into second-rate amateurs, but don't
00:21:10worry. I'll keep his lap warm for you. Is Roman checking out Boren? Of course he isn't.
00:21:20I'm so stupid. I don't have time for this. Bye. Hey, coach. Roman won't help me and Lauren's
00:21:33out for blood. I can't waste any more time. Ignore the pain or Lauren wins.
00:21:50Hey, hey, hey. Come here. What the hell are you doing?
00:22:13I have to be the best. Okay, you're acting like an amateur. I told you not to push through this.
00:22:18You didn't listen to me. I guess I can't do anything, right?
00:22:24Show me.
00:22:30It's sensitive. I know.
00:22:39I thought you were done with me.
00:22:40I'm never going to be done with you.
00:22:45Roman, kiss me.
00:22:53Stop. I need you to go before I lose control.
00:22:57And rest your damn arm.
00:22:58I've had the family attorneys look over this contract for your championship competition.
00:23:14This is your last chance to back out.
00:23:17All right, all right.
00:23:20You're both your father's daughter.
00:23:22The terms are simple.
00:23:24If you cheat, you're disqualified.
00:23:34Your uncle and I competed with these back in the day.
00:23:39May they bring you honor.
00:23:41Thank you, dad.
00:23:44I won't let you down.
00:23:46Girls, know that I love you.
00:23:48And that no matter what happens, I'm proud of you.
00:23:52Come.
00:23:53Lauren, honey.
00:23:55A word?
00:23:57Okay.
00:23:59Forget this contract.
00:24:02I don't care how you win.
00:24:05But Melody cannot be in the will.
00:24:11Social comparison theory suggests we define ourselves based on how we feel we measure up to others.
00:24:19It is a slippery slope in the psychological world, both dangerous and intriguing at the same time.
00:24:34Melody.
00:24:36What's on your phone that's so interesting?
00:24:39Sorry, professor.
00:24:39She did this.
00:24:54Enough.
00:24:55Settle down.
00:24:56Do I say hello to him?
00:25:16Does he know about the video?
00:25:23Hi.
00:25:23Stop fucking with me.
00:25:36Back off, Lauren.
00:25:41Melody.
00:25:42Seems like you're obsessed with our coach.
00:25:45What are you going to do next?
00:25:46Write his little name on the dorm walls.
00:25:48It's enough, both of you.
00:25:58I'd like to, um, give some recognition to Melody Ashworth.
00:26:03Despite her injury, she's trained harder than the rest of you.
00:26:08Learn from her example.
00:26:09Thanks.
00:26:17Thanks.
00:26:19You owe me an extra morning training session.
00:26:22Tomorrow I'm the gym.
00:26:28Piece of advice.
00:26:29Don't try and beat me at my own game.
00:26:31Because I will fucking destroy you.
00:26:33Fifteen minutes early.
00:26:45I owed you.
00:26:47I rested my arm like you said.
00:26:50And it feels way better.
00:26:53Miracles do happen.
00:26:55You can train on it today.
00:26:56Just go slow.
00:26:56Okay?
00:27:04Hey.
00:27:08Go get your strength back.
00:27:18I'm going.
00:27:19I'm going.
00:27:19I'm going.
00:27:21Well done.
00:27:36I learned I'm the best.
00:27:41Are you sure you want to do this?
00:27:46You know what you're risking.
00:27:48Of course.
00:27:49I fought for my place in this family,
00:27:50in this competition my entire life.
00:27:53But I can't stop wanting you.
00:28:08Tell me to stop.
00:28:09Keep going.
00:28:10Tell me how I know you were.
00:28:19Everything you've ever dreamed.
00:28:24Got me thinking, is this love?
00:28:27My mind is going crazy, baby.
00:28:35Maybe you've got all my attention.
00:28:39Living inside the tension.
00:28:41My mind is going crazy, baby.
00:28:45I think I love you.
00:28:46Oh my God.
00:28:50What's going on?
00:28:51Junius, now it looks like...
00:28:52It looks like you're making out with the coach.
00:28:54No, Jun...
00:28:56Fucking mistake.
00:28:58No, I'll talk to her.
00:28:59You're not going to say anything.
00:29:00You're going to pray she doesn't tell anyone,
00:29:02and then we don't get caught.
00:29:03We're done with our private sessions.
00:29:05Junius, we're friends, right?
00:29:18Sure.
00:29:19And friends help each other out.
00:29:22And enemies...
00:29:23Enemies can pull some strings
00:29:25to make some fencing scholarships disappear.
00:29:30What do you want?
00:29:31I want some intel on my dear sister, Melody.
00:29:36Okay?
00:29:55I can't get your taste off my lips.
00:29:57Meet me in the gym tonight.
00:29:58Let's spar.
00:29:59R.
00:29:59R.
00:30:00Shh.
00:30:01I can't get your taste off my lips.
00:30:11Roman?
00:30:11I thought you never wanted to see me again.
00:30:17Okay?
00:30:17Let's do this.
00:30:31What the hell is wrong with you?
00:30:45You actually thought he wanted you?
00:30:48Note.
00:30:50You tricked me.
00:30:51Well, Jun spilled everything.
00:30:54She said you practically threw yourself at him.
00:30:56No wonder why he dumped you after things got just a little messy.
00:31:00Wait, do you really think he loved you?
00:31:03Aww.
00:31:07You're jealous.
00:31:09You get everything you want.
00:31:10You can't handle me having this one thing.
00:31:12Well, someone's got to remind you of your place.
00:31:15But leave Roman to me.
00:31:16We're also going to tell you that you're dirty little.
00:31:18You have no proof.
00:31:22You sure about that?
00:31:24I have been watching your every move since we were kids.
00:31:29I know your weak spots.
00:31:31And I know the ending.
00:31:33And I always fucking win.
00:31:36Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:31:41Ow.
00:31:42What is going on here?
00:31:43Melody.
00:31:44She tricked me into this dirty fight.
00:31:46She's trying to hurt me so I can't compete tomorrow.
00:31:49Bullshit, you ambushed me.
00:31:53She's fucking crazy.
00:31:55Can you do something about this and kick her off the team before someone gets hurt and has to go to the hospital?
00:31:59You lured me with a fake note.
00:32:01What note?
00:32:02What?
00:32:06Listen to me right now.
00:32:16I will not be a pawn in your sibling rivalry.
00:32:20God, I thought you two were honorable fencers.
00:32:22Not catty, immature children who risk their futures with idiotic fights.
00:32:27Do not give me any excuse right now.
00:32:31You pull a stunt like this again, you're off the team.
00:32:35Both of you.
00:32:36At least I can sleep in on Fridays now.
00:33:02Melody, there you are.
00:33:05What do you want?
00:33:07Look, I screwed up.
00:33:09Whatever is between you and Roman, it is none of my business.
00:33:11And it's just...
00:33:13Lauren threatened my fencing scholarship.
00:33:17And your family is a big deal here.
00:33:19And I just, I panicked.
00:33:21And I'm really sorry that I ratted you out.
00:33:23It's okay.
00:33:25My sister can be scary.
00:33:28I want to make it up to you.
00:33:30There's this invite-only networking party tonight.
00:33:33And it's just for legacy fencing champions.
00:33:36And students with Olympic belt coaches, alumni, scouts.
00:33:40They're all going to be there.
00:33:41Come with me as my friend.
00:33:44Won't Lauren be mad?
00:33:45Probably.
00:33:46But you've earned your place too.
00:33:48Please, I'll help you get ready.
00:33:51We'll look super hot.
00:33:53And flirt with cute boys.
00:33:54And make career connections.
00:33:57It'll be fun.
00:33:57That sounds amazingly normal compared to what my life has been like lately.
00:34:27Everyone's staring.
00:34:39Because you're hot shit.
00:34:41Own it.
00:34:47Oh my god, is that Melody Ashworth?
00:34:50She looks like a model.
00:34:51Shut up.
00:34:54Hey, I was hoping you'd show.
00:34:56You sure made an impression on me.
00:34:59You look beautiful tonight.
00:35:02Can I get you a drink?
00:35:04Sure.
00:35:07I can't stop thinking about Roman.
00:35:12But here's this hot guy completely into me.
00:35:15I should be enjoying this.
00:35:16A true gentleman.
00:35:23Hey.
00:35:24You're not going to stop?
00:35:25I saw you spiking.
00:35:26What?
00:35:27No, I didn't.
00:35:29Drink it.
00:35:34Whoa.
00:35:35Hey, man.
00:35:35Whoa.
00:35:38Rufies.
00:35:38What?
00:35:38You were going to put one in her drink and take her upstairs?
00:35:40And then what?
00:35:41You think that makes you a man?
00:35:42It was a joke, coach.
00:35:43It was a joke.
00:35:44You're fucking pathetic.
00:35:45You're off the team.
00:35:46And tomorrow you'll be expelled.
00:35:47I could have handled myself.
00:35:52I just saved your ass.
00:35:53Oh, my knight in shining armor.
00:35:55I thought we weren't supposed to be alone anymore.
00:35:58He could have raped you, okay?
00:35:59I wanted to kill him.
00:36:00Oh, so you care about me.
00:36:03Admit you care about me.
00:36:06Yes, okay?
00:36:06I care about you.
00:36:08Even when you're fencing, I cannot get you out of my brain.
00:36:11Yes.
00:36:11Tell me to stop and I will.
00:36:15Okay.
00:36:20Okay.
00:36:41You sure you want to keep going?
00:36:57It's my first time.
00:36:59Oh.
00:37:02This is a really big deal, then.
00:37:07You sure you want to continue?
00:37:08Just go slow.
00:37:14Of course.
00:37:33You're still here.
00:37:35How else would I be?
00:37:36Or maybe I dreamt you.
00:37:39Or maybe I went too far and scared you off.
00:37:46What's this?
00:37:47An old wound.
00:37:49A mistake.
00:37:51You went to the Olympics, but you never competed.
00:37:56And then you disappeared from the circuit.
00:37:59Smart girl.
00:38:01I was young and reckless, and everybody thought I was going to take home the gold.
00:38:07The night before my bout, a rival challenged me to a private match.
00:38:14He fought dirty with a sharpened blade and cut deep into my leg.
00:38:20I was ashamed, and the judges never found out, and he went on to win the gold.
00:38:26I never competed again.
00:38:28Why did you find him alone?
00:38:30Why do you swear, Lauren?
00:38:33Why do you swear, Lauren?
00:38:35Pride.
00:38:38Spite.
00:38:40To prove that I was the best.
00:38:42Don't make the same mistakes I did.
00:38:46Don't throw away your future.
00:38:48Even if we just did.
00:39:05I don't regret last night.
00:39:08I hope that doesn't change.
00:39:09It's my dad.
00:39:22Melody Ashworth, come home now!
00:39:28I have to go.
00:39:29Daddy, look.
00:39:37It's not fair.
00:39:40Your sister sent me this.
00:39:41What are you doing with Coach Wright?
00:39:43Explain yourself.
00:39:45It's not what it looks like.
00:39:46It's a...
00:39:46Did you sleep with your sister's coach?
00:39:49That would constitute cheating.
00:39:51No!
00:39:52He walked me home.
00:39:53Nothing happened.
00:39:54Liar.
00:39:55You're in the same dress from last night.
00:39:57I bet you didn't even go back to your dorm.
00:40:00This is a disgrace.
00:40:02My own daughter compromising the integrity of the game.
00:40:06She broke the rules of the contract.
00:40:08Daddy, disqualify her.
00:40:12No, please, Dad.
00:40:13I've trained my entire life to make you proud.
00:40:15This is my chance.
00:40:16I need it.
00:40:17If you're going to fight fair, we need to remove any distractions.
00:40:21Absolutely.
00:40:22Of course.
00:40:22You will no longer train with Roman Wright.
00:40:26Furthermore, now's as good a time as any.
00:40:33Leo, our arrangement will need to begin sooner than we discussed.
00:40:38Come over.
00:40:39Dad, who's Leo?
00:40:40Yeah, who's Leo?
00:40:41What's going on?
00:40:42If Roman Wright is such a distraction to you, we need to find another outlet for your temptations.
00:40:49Someone more suitable.
00:40:51Melody?
00:40:52Meet your fiancée.
00:40:59Pleasure.
00:41:07Pleasure.
00:41:08To meet my future wife.
00:41:10Melody, this is Leo Castellan, Olympic gold medalist.
00:41:13I was going to wait to tell you the good news about your arranged engagement.
00:41:18Leo Castellan?
00:41:19Where do I know that name from?
00:41:20Given the circumstances, Leo has agreed not only to marry you, but to take over your training as well.
00:41:26What?
00:41:27He was set to spar with Roman in the Olympics.
00:41:29He's the rival who ruined Roman's career.
00:41:31Oh, you've got to be kidding me.
00:41:33Dad, I don't want a fiancée.
00:41:35Either accept Leo or forfeit your place in the will.
00:41:40My decision is final.
00:41:42I guess you two are so cute together.
00:41:45Don't worry, princess.
00:41:51I've been waiting to get my hands on you.
00:41:54Then it's settled.
00:41:54I thought you overslept.
00:42:04I barely slept.
00:42:06Drills will wake you up.
00:42:08What'd your dad want?
00:42:09The thought of losing Roman makes me want to cry.
00:42:12I have to find a way out of this engagement.
00:42:14Just spend my stuff.
00:42:15Looking a little stiff.
00:42:34Would it last night kind of wear you out?
00:42:36No.
00:42:38Just the opposite.
00:42:43Melody.
00:42:44Enjoying your last training session with your washed-up coach?
00:42:50What the hell are you doing on my campus?
00:42:52Just picking up my fiancée.
00:42:55You didn't tell me.
00:42:56You know, Roman, it happened so fast.
00:42:58Wait, wait, wait.
00:42:58Did you know about this when we were...
00:43:00No.
00:43:02Forget it.
00:43:04Congratulations to the both of you.
00:43:06No!
00:43:07Roman, wait!
00:43:08What could you possibly have to say to me right now?
00:43:12You lied to me.
00:43:13You don't understand my dad...
00:43:15Your father would be disappointed that you're still wasting time here.
00:43:21I get it.
00:43:23Just like a means to an end, huh?
00:43:25And here I thought that an Ashworth was capable of more than just playing games.
00:43:33No, Roman!
00:43:34He's just mad because he knows he's not good enough for you.
00:43:37As a fencer or a man.
00:43:39Don't worry.
00:43:40I've got you now.
00:43:41Don't touch me!
00:43:43Don't be stupid, Melody.
00:43:45Without me, you can kiss your family fortune goodbye.
00:43:48I'd rather die than marry you.
00:43:52Don't say no to me.
00:43:57Nobody says no to me.
00:43:58I just did!
00:44:04You're gonna regret that, princess!
00:44:06You're gonna regret that, princess!
00:44:07Oh, my God.
00:44:08I got it.
00:44:16Hi.
00:44:19So, you found out the truth about Melody.
00:44:23I bet you guys care more about your legacy than the feelings of actual human beings.
00:44:32Was that a line?
00:44:34You're still my student.
00:44:39Well...
00:44:41I can be more than just your student.
00:44:46I mean, come on.
00:44:49Melody?
00:44:50Melody is way beneath you.
00:44:51You deserve to be with a real champion.
00:44:56Like me.
00:45:06You're no champion.
00:45:08You've coasted on your name and neglected your duties to your team.
00:45:11Here's a tip.
00:45:13Spend more time on fencing than less on inappropriate suspension-worthy behavior.
00:45:17I'll see you at practice, Miss Ashworth.
00:45:22Oh, Clifton.
00:45:26Oh, Clifton.
00:45:27You do things my husband would never dare.
00:45:31Does he know anything about us?
00:45:36He won't find out as long as you do that favor I asked for it.
00:45:50Anything for you.
00:45:52My mother is having an affair with the university president?
00:45:57Oh, you're sleeping with President Clifton?
00:45:59You're sleeping with President Clifton?
00:46:01Shh.
00:46:02You saw nothing.
00:46:03Got it?
00:46:04Dad deserves to know.
00:46:05He won't believe a word from his scandal-ridden daughter.
00:46:08You already lost his trust once you had your little fling with Coach, right?
00:46:22Mom!
00:46:23How could you?
00:46:25Well, I'll be better off once Lauren wins and you're no longer our problem.
00:46:31If you say a word, your tuition vanishes.
00:46:37Got it?
00:46:46Robin thinks I used him and my mom's cheating on my dad and if I don't marry Leo, I'm gonna lose everything.
00:46:53You're gonna win the championships and your mom's gonna eat her words and then you can divorce Leo's crusty ass promise.
00:46:59I can't marry him.
00:47:07Holy shit.
00:47:08The school's exclusive fencing society invited us to join.
00:47:11Tonight.
00:47:12This is your perfect chance to fix things with Roman.
00:47:15He won't talk to me, it's no good.
00:47:18He risked his career for you.
00:47:23I'm gonna fix your makeup.
00:47:25We're going.
00:47:44What is Leo doing here?
00:47:45What kind of fencing society is this?
00:47:47Well, he's alumni, right?
00:47:49He's probably just a member.
00:47:50Hey, don't worry.
00:47:51I'm gonna look out for you, okay?
00:48:00Roman, can you talk, please?
00:48:01Stop.
00:48:02Attention champions.
00:48:05I'm Leo Castellan, president of the Looney University Elite Fencing Society.
00:48:13You're all here because you are the best.
00:48:16Well, most of you.
00:48:19How about we kick off tonight's festivities with a little game of skill.
00:48:25Who knows how to play strip points?
00:48:28I thought that game was banned.
00:48:30It's like a strip tease in dual form.
00:48:32Get the shirt off your opponent without touching their skin.
00:48:35If you're good, it should be easy.
00:48:38But if not, I guess we'll see.
00:48:41Their shirts or their dress.
00:48:47The loser owes the winner a favor.
00:48:50Melody Ashworth, care to help me demonstrate?
00:48:54Since you're so eager to take your clothes off, maybe I should go first?
00:49:01Okay, princess.
00:49:03If you lose, I get an hour with you.
00:49:06Whatever I want.
00:49:08Oh, this is gonna be so good.
00:49:25Good thing I never touch your body with a ten-foot pole.
00:49:28I just have to get his shirt off without touching him.
00:49:31Focus.
00:49:32Oops.
00:49:46That's a touch.
00:49:49Bummer.
00:49:50And she chokes.
00:49:52Classic Melody.
00:49:53Always screw it up.
00:49:55You moved.
00:49:56Now, now.
00:49:58Don't be a sore loser.
00:50:00Why don't we talk about that favor you owe me?
00:50:05I can do whatever I want with you.
00:50:09What do you say we go upstairs?
00:50:14You can make me forget about how you humiliated me.
00:50:17Okay, this is done.
00:50:18I saw you cheat.
00:50:20Well, that's quite the accusation.
00:50:22Coming from the guy who didn't bother to show his face at our Olympic bout.
00:50:25I guess those who can't do teach.
00:50:29She's not going anywhere with you.
00:50:31Oh, really?
00:50:32You gonna put your blade behind that?
00:50:33You wanna bow?
00:50:34Right now?
00:50:35Oh, look.
00:50:36Roman Wright protecting his pathetic little pet.
00:50:39How cute.
00:50:40You.
00:50:41Me.
00:50:42Real blades.
00:50:43No mask.
00:50:44No gear.
00:50:45Just skill.
00:50:46If you win, I'll forgo Melody's favor to me.
00:50:52He's baiting him into another unsafe fight.
00:50:54Roman could get hurt.
00:50:56Mm-hmm.
00:50:57Coach Wright, I'm fine.
00:51:00Let's finish this now.
00:51:04But on my terms, full gear, official rules.
00:51:09How it was supposed to be.
00:51:11Sure.
00:51:12Wouldn't want you getting hurt.
00:51:15Roman, he's dangerous.
00:51:24Don't do it.
00:51:25Welcome to the big league, sweetheart.
00:51:27Watch and learn.
00:51:28Best out of three.
00:51:29Unless you forfeit.
00:51:31Not to you.
00:51:33Ever again.
00:51:34Coach Wright's in the lead.
00:51:50Coach Wright's in the lead.
00:51:55Coach Wright's in the lead.
00:52:20I won.
00:52:22We done here?
00:52:24I never lose.
00:52:29No! No! Stop!
00:52:30I'm the best in the world,
00:52:32and I'm going to take what's mine.
00:52:33Get off of her!
00:52:38That was a huge mistake, Bright.
00:52:40I'm going to destroy whatever's left of your career.
00:52:43Come on. We're leaving.
00:52:46Oh, that was way better than I thought.
00:52:50Here, let me.
00:52:59You've done enough.
00:53:01He put his hands on you.
00:53:03I had no choice.
00:53:05I had to protect you, and I lost control.
00:53:08You fought your rival.
00:53:10The man who ruined your life.
00:53:14And you won.
00:53:16Yeah, I did, didn't I?
00:53:20I was thinking about you the whole time.
00:53:22You don't want to be with him?
00:53:24I tried to tell you my family forced me to be with Leo.
00:53:27But I hate him.
00:53:31I'm falling for you.
00:53:32I'm falling for you, Roman, right?
00:53:39I know I shouldn't.
00:53:41And I've tried to forget you,
00:53:43but I can't.
00:53:44I've never felt this way before.
00:53:49You really are reckless.
00:53:52Falling for the guy that just by touching you could lose everything.
00:53:56And all I want to do is touch you and hold you and love you.
00:54:00When I thought you left me for Leo,
00:54:05I thought that everything we had was a lie,
00:54:07and that I lost the biggest treasure of my life.
00:54:11With my leg and within my fencing career.
00:54:15I could never lie to you.
00:54:18Not about how I feel.
00:54:21I love you.
00:54:22I love you, too.
00:54:24I love you, too.
00:54:54June, what is it?
00:54:54Sleeping.
00:54:56Check your socials.
00:54:57It's really bad.
00:55:09What was going on?
00:55:11I'm going to go to the school,
00:55:25and I will take full responsibility.
00:55:27I'll resign,
00:55:28and I'll tell them that it was completely on me.
00:55:31No!
00:55:31If the video had the part where Leo forced himself on me,
00:55:35people would understand.
00:55:36No, people see what they want to see, okay?
00:55:38I'm not letting you throw your future away from me.
00:55:40Well, I'm not letting you sacrifice yourself for saving me.
00:55:42President Clifton.
00:55:50He wants to see us in an hour.
00:55:53You promised me I won't lose you.
00:55:55Is it true?
00:56:12My employee assaulted an Olympic alumnus
00:56:16and then took a student home?
00:56:18The press is banging on our doors.
00:56:21It is a scandal.
00:56:23And Miss Ashworth,
00:56:24your family's reputation
00:56:25and fencing accolades have built this university.
00:56:30You've let us all down.
00:56:32President Clifton,
00:56:34you deserve the truth.
00:56:36That night, I...
00:56:37took advantage of Miss Ashworth, sir.
00:56:41My temper got the better of me,
00:56:43and I'm sorry.
00:56:44She's completely innocent.
00:56:45Rome.
00:56:47Coach Wright,
00:56:48that's not the full story.
00:56:50Coach Wright,
00:56:52you're fired.
00:56:53And you are lucky
00:56:54if the Ashworth family
00:56:56and the Castellano estate
00:56:57don't press charges.
00:56:59You can't fire him.
00:57:00He's the best coach you've ever had.
00:57:02He cares, and she...
00:57:02Miss Ashworth,
00:57:03don't make me change my mind
00:57:05and expel you.
00:57:06It's been an honor
00:57:08serving this university, sir.
00:57:11I'm going to pack my things.
00:57:20Rome and Wright,
00:57:21don't walk away from me.
00:57:22We have to fight this.
00:57:24It's over, Miss Ashworth.
00:57:26I'm sorry.
00:57:36I heard they fired that sicko, Roman.
00:57:40I wonder who the new coach is.
00:57:42I don't know,
00:57:42but he better be hot.
00:57:44Ladies and gentlemen,
00:57:46welcome to practice.
00:57:49Since Mr. Wright was sacked
00:57:51due to misconduct,
00:57:53I'll be your new coach.
00:57:57And I quit.
00:57:58Bye-bye.
00:58:20I'm here for practice, coach.
00:58:22I'm not your coach anymore.
00:58:26Well, you said it yourself.
00:58:28If I'm going to win,
00:58:29I need to work harder
00:58:30than everyone else,
00:58:31which means I need
00:58:32the best coach.
00:58:36Great.
00:58:37Yeah.
00:58:50Oh, wow.
00:58:50Stand up.
00:58:53Yeah.
00:58:53That's it.
00:58:54You're doing this.
00:58:56Oh, my God.
00:59:01You're almost ready.
00:59:04I better be,
00:59:04because my dad's furious.
00:59:07Well, since I'm technically
00:59:10no longer your coach anymore,
00:59:13how about a lunch date?
00:59:21Leo deserved that bloody nose.
00:59:23You've got to teach me
00:59:24how to punch like that.
00:59:25Absolutely not.
00:59:26You're dangerous enough as a fencer.
00:59:29Besides,
00:59:29I don't want anything
00:59:31hurting this perfect face.
00:59:34What's wrong?
00:59:36The competition's in a few days.
00:59:38And even when Lauren's not cheating,
00:59:40she's good.
00:59:41I might lose.
00:59:42You won't.
00:59:43You're better.
00:59:45I'm serious.
00:59:47And after chasing after you,
00:59:49if I lose,
00:59:51with all the chaos I caused,
00:59:52I might lose more
00:59:53than my parents' support.
00:59:54It might be my scholarship.
00:59:56I'd be out on the streets.
00:59:57For the rest of my life,
00:59:59I will always be there for you.
01:00:01Even if you lose,
01:00:02which you won't,
01:00:04you will always have a place to stay
01:00:06and someone fighting in your corner.
01:00:09I promise you.
01:00:12What?
01:00:14You have soy sauce on your nose.
01:00:15Oh my God.
01:00:16What did I get it?
01:00:17Yes.
01:00:18I just realized something.
01:00:25Hmm.
01:00:26I can't lose everything
01:00:28if I have you.
01:00:30Hmm.
01:00:30Hmm.
01:00:35Honored students,
01:00:36faculty,
01:00:37alumni,
01:00:38many great fencing champions
01:00:41have arisen from these halls.
01:00:43A handful of them
01:00:44bear the Ashworth name.
01:00:46My daughters have trained
01:00:48to be the best,
01:00:49just as their forefathers did.
01:00:51Judging their bout today,
01:00:53I welcome
01:00:54President Clifton.
01:00:59The Ashworth legacy bout
01:01:02is not just a match.
01:01:04It illustrates the pride
01:01:05and history
01:01:06of our university.
01:01:08And the past few weeks
01:01:10have seen some tribulations.
01:01:12So today,
01:01:13we begin our match
01:01:14with good,
01:01:15clean fencing.
01:01:18I'm surprised
01:01:19they let Roman show up.
01:01:20I hope he likes
01:01:21watching you lose.
01:01:22I hope you like fencing
01:01:23without bribing the judges.
01:01:26En garde,
01:01:27prête,
01:01:28allez!
01:01:32Point, Melody!
01:01:41Point, Lauren!
01:01:42Point, Melody!
01:01:49Point, Lauren!
01:01:54Four, four.
01:01:55One point left.
01:01:57This decides the match.
01:01:58En garde!
01:01:59Prête?
01:02:01Allez!
01:02:01Point, Lauren Ashworth,
01:02:12the match is over!
01:02:17That wasn't clean!
01:02:18Miss Melody Ashworth,
01:02:19the bout is over.
01:02:21You lost.
01:02:21You shouldn't be judging at all.
01:02:23Your word means nothing.
01:02:24What did you just say?
01:02:26You're having an affair
01:02:27with my mother.
01:02:27That makes you unfit
01:02:28to judge this match.
01:02:29That is a dangerous
01:02:32and baseless accusation.
01:02:34After I saw you
01:02:35having an affair
01:02:35with my mother?
01:02:36What the fuck
01:02:37are you talking about?
01:02:38Just admit it.
01:02:38You lost and you're sad.
01:02:41I did some digging.
01:02:43Lauren and I
01:02:43never looked alike
01:02:44even for fraternal twins.
01:02:45I found some hospital records
01:02:46in my mom's room.
01:02:48What?
01:02:49Please state that Lauren
01:03:00is not my daughter
01:03:01and that she was born
01:03:02a year after.
01:03:04After Melody,
01:03:04how can...
01:03:05How can...
01:03:05You went abroad
01:03:06and taught fencing
01:03:07for two years
01:03:08while I was pregnant.
01:03:09Clifton was there for me
01:03:11when you weren't.
01:03:12I had the children.
01:03:13I forged the hospital documents
01:03:15to make them twins.
01:03:17You came back
01:03:18and you didn't even notice.
01:03:20I only want Lauren
01:03:21to have the rightful place
01:03:22in this family.
01:03:24Agnes,
01:03:25I won't lie for you anymore.
01:03:26I'll give you
01:03:27your money back.
01:03:28Lauren cheated.
01:03:30You paid the university president
01:03:32so I'd win?
01:03:33No, honey, no.
01:03:33What the fuck, Mom?
01:03:34I'm better than this.
01:03:36Not only
01:03:37is President Clifton
01:03:38an unfit judge
01:03:40but Lauren
01:03:41is not my blood daughter.
01:03:43Melody,
01:03:44you win by default.
01:03:45No.
01:03:45Congratulations.
01:03:46No.
01:03:48Wait,
01:03:48I still want to fight
01:03:49for my legacy.
01:03:50We'll go again
01:03:51if she promises
01:03:51not to cheat.
01:03:55I'll judge.
01:03:57Lauren may not be
01:03:58my blood daughter
01:03:59but I did raise you both.
01:04:02And I'm the true
01:04:03Ashworth heir
01:04:03and I'm gonna
01:04:04fucking prove it.
01:04:05bitch.
01:04:09Go, Melody!
01:04:10Shut up!
01:04:12Just stay focused.
01:04:13Remember your strategy.
01:04:14Engarde!
01:04:15You've leached
01:04:15on this family
01:04:16for way too long.
01:04:17I earned
01:04:18this legacy.
01:04:19Then shut up
01:04:19and prove it.
01:04:20Crit?
01:04:20I didn't have to
01:04:21give you a second chance.
01:04:23Unlike you,
01:04:23I have honor and standards.
01:04:25Allez!
01:04:34And the final point
01:04:35goes to
01:04:36Melanie!
01:04:38No!
01:04:39No!
01:04:40This affair
01:04:41I deserve to win!
01:04:42Don't worry.
01:04:43I'll make sure
01:04:44you're taken care of
01:04:45even though I know
01:04:45you won't do the same
01:04:46for me.
01:04:50George,
01:04:50this was a mistake.
01:04:53I still love you.
01:04:54we're getting a divorce.
01:05:03I'm so proud of you.
01:05:08Mr. Wright,
01:05:09I clearly misjudged
01:05:12your situation
01:05:13and I have obviously
01:05:14been a hypocrite.
01:05:15I fired Leo Castellan
01:05:17and if you'd like,
01:05:18I'd be happy to give you
01:05:19your old job back.
01:05:21Apology accepted.
01:05:23But, um,
01:05:24I'm not interested in being
01:05:25a university coach anymore.
01:05:26there's, um,
01:05:29only one world-class
01:05:31fencer that I want
01:05:31to train
01:05:32for the rest of my life
01:05:33if she'll put up
01:05:34with me.
01:05:35And then if I'm lucky,
01:05:36one day when she graduates
01:05:38and maybe wins
01:05:39an Olympic gold medal,
01:05:40I'll put a ring
01:05:41on her finger.
01:05:42What do you think
01:05:42about that,
01:05:43Miss Ashworth?
01:05:44Hmm.
01:05:45Let me think about it,
01:05:46coach.
01:05:49Yes,
01:05:50I will.
01:05:51I love you.
01:05:51I love you too.
