Don't Hurt Me, Daddy, Mommy's Leaving

Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Take it easy. Mr. Harrington, you should slow down.
00:00:22I worked as his assistant for a year, all because I couldn't stop falling for him.
00:00:26I knew his heart still belonged to another woman, but I kept hoping that maybe, someday, he'd finally turn around and see me.
00:00:36Mr. Harrington, I'll go draw you a bath.
00:00:47You, I might.
00:00:54I'll take care of you.
00:00:56I thought my dream had finally come true, until my daughter was born.
00:01:15That's when I realized.
00:01:17No matter how hard you try, you can never thaw a heart made of ice.
00:01:22It's been seven years, and I'm still haunted by that night.
00:01:29Every mistake I've made, it's all started with that dream.
00:01:34Mommy, did you have a bad dream?
00:01:37No, no, sweetheart. I'm, I'm fine.
00:01:39Are we really moving out?
00:01:41But, daddy hugged me tonight. Does that mean he's starting to like me?
00:01:48Sweetheart, your daddy's true love is coming back, so we can't stay here anymore.
00:01:53But, he gave me the stuffed bunny tonight.
00:01:57If he didn't like me, why would he buy me a gift?
00:02:00Should I tell her Richard's only happy because his one true love is coming back from abroad?
00:02:07Or, her gift came from another woman's shadow?
00:02:10Daddy, you're home!
00:02:16Is she too dumb to understand my words or is it you?
00:02:19How many times must I say this?
00:02:21She is never to call me dad!
00:02:24I'm sorry, Uncle Richard.
00:02:32You don't have to like me, but Amy is your daughter. How could you hurt her like this?
00:02:36You're the one who climbed into my bed and used your pregnancy to trap me into a marriage.
00:02:44Is that your idea of not hurting your daughter?
00:02:48I've already explained it a thousand times. It only happened that night because you were-
00:02:53Enough!
00:02:54I don't want to hear it anymore.
00:02:55I can tell my mom, mommy, Uncle Richard. Please stop fighting.
00:03:04Who told you you could have this?
00:03:07Tell your daughter to keep her hands off of things that don't belong to her.
00:03:12So that's it. The gift was meant for his true love's daughter all along.
00:03:17Is Amy really that worthless in his eyes?
00:03:21Tell me, Amy.
00:03:24Amy, what if we leave Uncle Richard together?
00:03:29Will you come with mommy?
00:03:31Will you stay?
00:03:32You didn't even let me call him dad once.
00:03:35He doesn't want us here. Mommy can take you away.
00:03:40Can we give Uncle Richard three more chances?
00:03:44If he really doesn't like us, we'll leave him. We're good.
00:03:51Okay.
00:03:52Richard Harrington, my daughter and I are giving you three more chances.
00:04:01After that, you'll have no place in our home. Ever.
00:04:04Zoe, are you really quitting the job?
00:04:12Yeah.
00:04:14Um, Amy's father is abroad, so I'm taking her to go join him.
00:04:19I know it must have been tough raising Amy alone.
00:04:31Zoe, did you see that?
00:04:33Mr. Harrington, our iceberg CEO, is bringing someone with him for the first time ever.
00:04:39Evelyn York. She really is stunning.
00:04:48No wonder Richard's never gotten over her all these years.
00:04:52Even when he was drunk, he was still calling her name in my bed.
00:04:57Who's that girl?
00:04:58She looks really close to Mr. Harrington.
00:05:01Could she be the future Mrs. Harrington?
00:05:05Everyone, I'd like to make an announcement.
00:05:07Ms. Evelyn York here will be joining us at the company and taking the position as my new personal assistant.
00:05:13Zoe, what are you going to do if she takes your place as his assistant?
00:05:17I'm leaving soon anyways. It's perfect timing for her to show up.
00:05:21I can't believe the Harrington Corp would just parachute someone in like that.
00:05:27Not just someone, she's that one.
00:05:31Wait, Nathan, Zoe, Mr. Harrington's personal assistant?
00:05:35And now Evelyn's here, so what does that mean for Zoe? Will she lose her job?
00:05:40I've been here for years and this is the first time I've ever seen them drop someone in like this.
00:05:45Everyone else started from the bottom and worked their way up.
00:05:48Don't you guys think she looks kind of familiar?
00:05:50Haven't we seen her somewhere before?
00:05:52Wait, isn't she Mr. Harrington's first love?
00:05:57I heard they almost got married once, but she suddenly vanished and Mr. Harrington's been
00:06:03drowning himself in booze over her ever since.
00:06:06Hi, everyone. I'm so excited to be joining the company and becoming part of the Harrington family.
00:06:16I'd really appreciate your guidance as I get settled in.
00:06:21What? Zoe worked herself to the bone bringing in all those big clients to become the CEO's personal assistant.
00:06:29Exactly. Everyone can see how skilled Zoe is, and yet suddenly someone comes along and steals her position.
00:06:35It's so unfair.
00:06:37I feel so bad for Zoe.
00:06:39Come on. You're near here. Let me show you around.
00:06:41Richard, you've got so much work to do. I don't want to be a burden.
00:06:48Maybe Zoe could show me around?
00:06:52Actually, I've got a lot on my plate right now.
00:07:01Then forget it. Never mind.
00:07:04No, no. Show her around.
00:07:06It won't take too much of your time.
00:07:14Hi.
00:07:19This is the conference room.
00:07:21I've shown you everything you need to see.
00:07:25You get it now, don't you, Zoe?
00:07:28No matter how hard you work, in Richard's heart, I'm the one that matters the most.
00:07:34What? Can't handle the truth?
00:07:41Well, he's just using you for pleasure.
00:07:46One call for me, and he flies overseas just to see me.
00:07:50Then I wish you two a lifetime of happiness.
00:07:53For as long as you both shall live.
00:07:57You're saying one thing and doing another.
00:08:00You think I don't see right through you, you two-faced slut?
00:08:07How else do you think you got pregnant?
00:08:11I almost feel sorry for your daughter.
00:08:15She's Richard's blood, and yet he treats my daughter like she's his own.
00:08:20Do you know why that is?
00:08:23Well, if you're so confident, then why don't you convince Richard to make you his wife?
00:08:28Unless, of course, you're hiding something.
00:08:32What are you so afraid of?
00:08:33What am I afraid of?
00:08:36The one who should be afraid is you.
00:08:47Zoe!
00:08:47Are you okay?
00:09:03I'm fine, Richard.
00:09:10Apologize.
00:09:11I can't believe it took me this long to see how blind you really are.
00:09:18Richard, don't be angry. She didn't mean it.
00:09:21Please, for my sake.
00:09:24The surveillance cameras are on.
00:09:26Why don't you check them before accusing me?
00:09:32Two chances left.
00:09:33Richard, I'm okay.
00:09:40Zoe's probably upset because I took her spot.
00:09:44It was just a slap.
00:09:46Don't start any drama over me.
00:09:48I can't just let this slide.
00:09:50She's already hit you once. Who knows what she'll do next time.
00:09:52I need to teach you a lesson.
00:09:57I'm tired of these little charades.
00:10:00I'm leaving.
00:10:01Excuse me.
00:10:03Zoe!
00:10:04If you walk out those doors, you'll be demoted to a junior assistant.
00:10:11Do whatever you want.
00:10:18Zoe's acting so differently.
00:10:20What's going on with him?
00:10:21What?
00:10:34Is Zoe quitting?
00:10:41Maya, why didn't you tell me Zoe was resigning?
00:10:45Zoe told me not to let Mr. Harrington find out.
00:10:48How did he know?
00:10:49Mr. Harrington.
00:10:53There must be some mistake.
00:10:55Zoe, resign.
00:10:57That's impossible.
00:10:59That's right.
00:11:00She'd never leave me.
00:11:01She loves me too much.
00:11:03Richard, please don't be so hard on Zoe.
00:11:11Will you come to my place tonight?
00:11:14I want to be with you.
00:11:16Whatever you want.
00:11:19You're so good to me.
00:11:22Spending the night at another woman's place while we're still married?
00:11:26Fine.
00:11:27Soon you'll be free to spend every night with her.
00:11:30Mom!
00:11:39Amy!
00:11:42Mom, tomorrow is our open house.
00:11:44Can daddy come?
00:11:47Seven years of marriage and not once since you come to Amy's school.
00:11:50Why would tomorrow be any different?
00:11:58Amy, I-I-
00:11:59Mom, all my classmates say I don't even have a dad.
00:12:02Let daddy come just once.
00:12:04Please?
00:12:04Okay, I'll text him.
00:12:11Amy's school has open house tomorrow.
00:12:13Any chance he could come?
00:12:19Mom, is daddy too busy to come?
00:12:21I don't know babe, I'm sorry.
00:12:24I get it, it's okay.
00:12:26Daddy's busy.
00:12:28I understand.
00:12:30Amy.
00:12:33Okay, I'll come.
00:12:34Amy, look, daddy says I'll come.
00:12:36Yay!
00:12:37Daddy's finally coming to my school for me.
00:12:40Mommy, my teacher said I did really well at school this year and I get to be class president this semester.
00:12:45If daddy knew, maybe he'd start liking me, right?
00:12:50Please, just don't break Amy's heart this time.
00:12:59Mom, daddy's really here.
00:13:03He really came.
00:13:06Let's go over to daddy.
00:13:10Daddy!
00:13:12Why didn't you just call me?
00:13:15What did you just call me?
00:13:20Uncle Richard, you're sitting at the wrong desk.
00:13:23Mine's up front.
00:13:24It's the first time dad actually kept his promise.
00:13:27I feel so happy.
00:13:29This is my seat.
00:13:33Out of the way!
00:13:35This is my dad.
00:13:37So that's it.
00:13:38He came, but not for Amy.
00:13:41He came for Evelyn's daughter.
00:13:42Oh, Lily didn't mean it.
00:13:45I'm sorry.
00:13:47Zoe, you're going to the open house too, right?
00:13:52So, where's her dad?
00:13:56My dad's overseas.
00:13:58It's busy.
00:13:59I didn't want to bother him.
00:14:00Uncle Richard, mom and I are leaving now.
00:14:05Excuse us.
00:14:07Usually, Amy clings to me no matter what.
00:14:10But today, she's pulling away on her own.
00:14:13What's gotten into her?
00:14:14Mom, first he brought that woman to the company and flipped your spot.
00:14:24And now, he shows up at school for some other kid.
00:14:27Dad only has one more chance left.
00:14:30What did I do to deserve this?
00:14:33Why does my daughter have to suffer?
00:14:35And there's nothing I can do to stop it.
00:14:38Welcome, parents.
00:14:40And thank you all for being here today.
00:14:43I'm sure you want to know how your kids are doing, so let's dive right in.
00:14:49Amy, I heard you're doing really well in school, right?
00:14:53Quiet, please.
00:14:55I am thrilled to say that all of our pupils have been studying super hard this semester.
00:15:01However, there is one student who has gone above and beyond, and that is Amy Harrington.
00:15:08Congratulations, Amy.
00:15:11You have been elected as class president.
00:15:19Why did she get to be class president?
00:15:27Amy, would you like to come up here and say something to everyone?
00:15:30I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:15:36I don't really know what to say.
00:15:38Oh, Amy, you just need a little more confidence, but no worries.
00:15:43Let's carry on.
00:15:48Amy, don't worry.
00:15:50Mommy will always be with you.
00:15:52Hey, what took you so long to get out today?
00:16:02You want to go home together today?
00:16:04By the way, Evelyn's daughter, Lily, she's a transfer student, right?
00:16:13So she never got the chance to run for class president.
00:16:18Amy, do you think maybe you could ask the teacher if she could have the title instead?
00:16:23Of course.
00:16:27Every gift comes with a price.
00:16:30Even this lollipop doesn't come for free.
00:16:35Okay, Uncle Richard.
00:16:36Mom.
00:16:46Richard, help!
00:16:48Lily is sick.
00:16:49Can you come pick us up?
00:16:50Dad!
00:17:01Stay safe.
00:17:06This time, he didn't tell our daughter to call him uncle.
00:17:10But this would be the last time she'd ever call him dad.
00:17:20Richard, I'm done staying up all night waiting for you.
00:17:33Next time you come home, the night lamp won't be on for you.
00:17:40Mom, let's get ready to board the plane.
00:17:43Okay, let's go.
00:17:44I wish you happiness.
00:17:48Again, if you are going to Chicago Midway, we'll stop with flight 882 for delaying departure at 725.
00:17:54That flight will be departing now at gate number 15.
00:17:57Gate number 15.
00:18:07Maya?
00:18:08Zoe, please, you've got to help me.
00:18:12What? What's going on?
00:18:13You remember the project with Mr. Lawrence?
00:18:16We're in the final stages, but now he's heard you're leaving and refuses to sign.
00:18:21If Mr. Harrington finds out about this, I'm finished. Fired.
00:18:25Please, I'm begging you.
00:18:28It's not fair to let someone else take the fall for the mess I left behind.
00:18:32Okay, I'll be back right away.
00:18:35Thank you, Zoe. Thank you so much.
00:18:43Amy, mommy just has one last thing she has to take care of, okay?
00:18:48We'll leave by tomorrow, I promise.
00:18:51Okay.
00:18:56Once I wrap things up with Mr. Lawrence and seal the deal, I can finally leave for good.
00:19:02Evelyn?
00:19:10This is my seat. Please move.
00:19:22This desk is closest to Richard. I'm his personal assistant now, so naturally it belongs to me.
00:19:29Sorry. If you want this seat so badly, you can ask Richard for it. But for now, it's mine.
00:19:37Hate to break it to you, Zoe, but Richard already gave me this spot.
00:19:42He said, a junior assistant like you doesn't deserve to sit here. See? Your things are moved over there.
00:19:51You must be boiling with jealousy, aren't you? Look at you. Pathetic. Clinging to your ego,
00:20:07pretending you don't care. Tell me, how did it feel when Richard took my daughter to the open house?
00:20:14That must have broken your heart, didn't it?
00:20:21Drop the act. One tear for me and Richard gives me whatever I want.
00:20:26Even your daughter's little president title. He handed that over to my Lily without a second thought.
00:20:33So, how did it feel that Richard made your daughter hand over her title to mine?
00:20:44Do you think Richard will still fawn over you once he sees your true colors? Or do you think he'll be
00:20:49disgusted? Like, like he swallowed a fly? You bitch. I'm just saying this to put you in your place.
00:20:59Get the hell out of here with your little brat and never show your face to Richard again,
00:21:04or I'll make you wish you were never even born. Got it?
00:21:11Yeah. Yeah, I get it. And since you're so fond of leftovers, you can have mine. Keep him.
00:21:17You. Don't think I don't see right through you. You're still hoping Richard cares.
00:21:25Dream on. What do you have that compares to me?
00:21:29I don't give a damn. But here's a warning. What goes around, comes around. And one day you might get thrown out like trash.
00:21:46What's going on here? Evelyn.
00:21:52Richard, what are you doing here?
00:21:55When are you going to stop picking on Evelyn?
00:21:59Richard, you're mistaken about Zoe. We were just playing a little game.
00:22:07I just saw what happened. You're far too kind. Always making excuses back.
00:22:13I don't want you two fighting over me. It's all my fault. Maybe I should have just never started
00:22:20working here in the first place. Stop blaming yourself for other people's mistakes.
00:22:24Zoe, do you have something to say? Nothing. Just that you're blind.
00:22:34How dare you talk to me like that? Have I been too kind that you've forgotten your place?
00:22:38Not to mention the audacity of you to hang up on me this morning. Is that how a personal
00:22:41assistant does her job? If it weren't for Evelyn, I would have, cleaning up your mess,
00:22:45I would have lost billions. From now on, you're demoted back to being an entry-level employee.
00:22:55So, he probably didn't see my message. He must have been busy at work this morning.
00:23:00Richard, Zoe's really good at her job. How can you demote her over something so trivial?
00:23:07Show her mercy and let her stay? No matter how good she is at her job,
00:23:11it won't make up for her vile character. But still, if Zoe gets demoted, I can't help but feel
00:23:20guilty. Don't. If it weren't for you, I would have never seen how truly evil she is. But still...
00:23:28Evelyn, you're always putting everybody else first. Try thinking of yourself at once.
00:23:37What are you waiting for? Apologize to her. Now!
00:23:40Now!
00:23:46Don't you ever get tired of this little act? I know I'm sick of it.
00:23:50Zoe, I know you're angry. Go ahead. Take it out on me. I won't blame you.
00:23:58As long as I'm here, you don't have to bother anymore. But she's Zoe, your assistant. Even if she
00:24:08hits me or curses at me, I won't say a word. Richard, let's pretend this never happened. Show her mercy and let
00:24:17her stay. I already showed her mercy when I allowed her to keep her job.
00:24:25Spare me. I quit. She can take my place.
00:24:31Zoe, you've been here so long. How can you just up and leave like that?
00:24:38Dad, if you're really mad at me, go ahead and hit me. She wouldn't dare.
00:24:49She actually hit me?
00:24:51Zoe, are you crazy? How dare you hit her in front of me?
00:24:54Those two slaps are for my daughter. You crushed her pride at the open house.
00:25:06Even forcing her to give up her class president title to your daughter. You brought this on yourself.
00:25:12Zoe. Zoe!
00:25:22Zoe!
00:25:23And that slap?
00:25:24That was for myself. You knew he was a married man and you still went after him. Nothing disgusts
00:25:30me more than a homewrecker like you.
00:25:32How can you say that about me? No, because it's true. You know better than anyone that he was married
00:25:40and you still invited him over to your place and you let him sneak into your bed at night?
00:25:45Evelyn, do you not know what shame is? It's not true. Richard and I, there's nothing between us.
00:25:53Zoe, I know you hate me. Fine. I'll leave. From now on...
00:25:57I've got to stop the act! Okay? If you want my leftovers so badly, take them. Be my guest. Just take the trash and keep it.
00:26:12Trash? What trash?
00:26:15Richard, I think there's a misunderstanding between me and Zoe. She barged in out of nowhere,
00:26:23called me a homewrecker and then... believe it or not, she said I could keep the trash. And by that she meant...
00:26:33she meant you. Zoe, have I been far too easy on you?
00:26:38Yeah. That's exactly what I thought. That I've been way too easy on you these last seven years.
00:26:44Seven years. Seven wasted years, Richard. Running deals, breaking my back for your company and for what?
00:27:02Zoe, hit me if you want, but please don't hurt Richard.
00:27:06What, do you think landing a few big deals makes you untouchable? That it gives you the right to act
00:27:11this cocky and be that disrespectful? Richard, please. It's my fault she ended up this way.
00:27:18Don't be angry with her. People like her only learn their lessons when you put them in their place.
00:27:26You two make me sick.
00:27:27Those two slaps were totally worth it. Finally, I've pushed you out. Zoe, always so high and mighty.
00:27:40Turns out, you ran straight into a brick wall. Serves you right.
00:27:51Call the project team. Zoe has to go over every point of data by herself.
00:27:57And if she doesn't finish by tonight, then she's out of the company.
00:28:01Mr. Harrington, this project's way too complex and the database is massive.
00:28:06There's no way Zoe can finish it all tonight.
00:28:09Then make her work through the entire night.
00:28:12She's been slacking off enough as it is already.
00:28:14It's getting late.
00:28:25Zoe's probably still buried in work, learning her lesson.
00:28:33Mr. Harrington?
00:28:35Your coffee, sir?
00:28:36Is Zoe still working?
00:28:39She learned your lesson.
00:28:41Well, actually, she didn't come back here after this afternoon.
00:28:45What did you just say?
00:28:46She didn't return. Do you want me to go look for her?
00:28:54Don't bother.
00:28:56Zoe, playing games with me, huh? Fine. Let's see how long you can keep up the act.
00:29:02Ready, Amy? Let's go.
00:29:09I'm ready, Mom. From now on, things are going to get better for us. Right?
00:29:14I promise.
00:29:23Let's go.
00:29:24Call Zoe. Tell her to bring me in a cup of coffee.
00:29:49But, Zoe hasn't shown up for work today either.
00:30:00Zoe's getting colder every day. I have to show her who's the boss.
00:30:04Richard?
00:30:07Come in.
00:30:10Your coffee, exactly the way you like it.
00:30:14Why are you the one bringing me in?
00:30:19Richard, what's wrong? I'm your personal assistant now. Of course, I'm the one bringing you coffee.
00:30:29Just put it down and leave.
00:30:36Richard, I found this amazing new restaurant.
00:30:40Tonight, we should take Lily and check it out together.
00:30:43I'm busy.
00:30:45But, Lily's really excited to get dinner with us.
00:30:50Richard.
00:30:52Richard, are you feeling well? Should we go to the hospital?
00:31:00Richard, I'm done staying up all night waiting for you.
00:31:04Next time you come home, the night lamp won't be on for you.
00:31:08I wish you happiness.
00:31:18Richard, what's the matter? Trouble at work?
00:31:24Zoe, what's that supposed to mean? Are you out of your mind? Who do you think you are saying something like that?
00:31:38Your call is being transferred. Please leave your message after the tone.
00:31:44But now, Zoe's been gone for just one day and he's already losing it.
00:31:55Your call is being transferred.
00:31:56Richard, don't do that. I'm scared.
00:31:59Mind your own business.
00:32:00I'm leaving.
00:32:05Zoe, I can't have a single moment of peace while you're still alive.
00:32:16Dammit!
00:32:22I know that you're just jealous, Zoe.
00:32:25But throwing a temper tantrum?
00:32:30Fine. Fine.
00:32:35I'll make it up to you.
00:32:43I need you to pick up a cake and flowers for me now.
00:32:56Zoe!
00:32:56I'm home.
00:33:02Are you happy now?
00:33:09Enough playing games, Zoe.
00:33:12Come down here now or I'm done playing nice.
00:33:14Zoe!
00:33:23Zoe!
00:33:25Zoe!
00:33:27My patience is weighing thin!
00:33:28Jerry Lee isn't coming back.
00:33:39Jerry Lee isn't coming back.
00:33:49Jerry Lee isn't coming back.
00:33:53We're still coming back, too.
00:34:09When losing money for me, my patience is coming back.
00:34:12It seems great for me.
00:34:15I'm not coming back.
00:34:20I've hardly ever been there for Amy, let alone playing with her.
00:34:50Zoe, I'll give you ten minutes. Call me back, or we're getting a divorce!
00:35:20So, he still hasn't realized Amy and I have already left the country.
00:35:36Well, well, well. Zoe, I thought you had some backbone. But here you are, crawling back to me already.
00:35:50So, if you can't even keep up the act, stop pretending. First you ran off with Amy, now you're calling me back. Pathetic.
00:36:00Richard, it's me.
00:36:04Why are you calling, Zoe? What's wrong? I had a nightmare. I'm scared. Could you come keep me company?
00:36:16If you're scared, go find your daughter. Let Evelyn keep you coming.
00:36:20What?
00:36:21Lily's too young. I just, I want you here. Please?
00:36:26I'm busy. Find somebody else.
00:36:28You're the only one I know.
00:36:30Fine. Zoe, you're the one who's pushing me away. You brought this on yourself.
00:36:36Alright. I'm coming. I'll be waiting.
00:36:42Zoe, let's see how you compete with me.
00:36:58Hey, kiddo. You tired? You want to take a nap?
00:37:10No, not yet.
00:37:12Yeah, me neither.
00:37:14How about we get a little sweet treat before dinner?
00:37:18Great.
00:37:20Zoe, what's that supposed to mean? Are you out of your mind? Who do you think you are saying something like that?
00:37:31Zoe, I'll give you ten minutes. Call me back or we're getting a divorce.
00:37:36Ignoring my texts won't do you any good. Richard's coming over to see me now. Jealous much?
00:37:45If I were you, I'd disappear for good instead of playing hard to get just to make him chase you.
00:37:54I'm his first and only love. As long as I'm here, you don't stand a chance. So just give it up.
00:38:10Okay, so what are we ordering?
00:38:11Can we get brownies?
00:38:13Yes, of course we could get brownies.
00:38:15Which one do you want?
00:38:30I have to keep making a fuss over the silly open house stuff.
00:38:35I am so over this.
00:38:39Dad!
00:38:43Stay safe.
00:38:51So, Zoe's upset just because I left her and Amy behind that day for Evelyn's daughter?
00:38:57Evelyn told me Lily was sick.
00:38:59So I rushed over to check. Turns out she was just hungry and whining for fried chicken.
00:39:03Easy. Lily, take it slow.
00:39:06Richard, I'm sorry. You were meant to go home with Zoe and Amy and here you are with me and Lily.
00:39:16Don't worry. I'll apologize to her tomorrow.
00:39:19No need. I'm happy to help.
00:39:21Richard, you're my lifesaver.
00:39:24If I took Amy out for fried chicken even just once, she'd be over the moon.
00:39:36Richard.
00:39:37Come in.
00:39:38Zoe's got a way better figure than her. And yet she'd never wear something so revealing.
00:39:53The clients are all here. Shareholders too. Let's go to the meeting.
00:40:04Let's go.
00:40:06Oh no. The client files. My daughter took them yesterday. She did scribble all over them, did she?
00:40:16No, it's fine. I'm pretty sure I put those files away. Hopefully before she got her hands on them.
00:40:22What's wrong?
00:40:25Uh, nothing. I just didn't get any sleep last night.
00:40:30Well, make sure you try to get to bed early tonight then.
00:40:33I will.
00:40:36Richard. Long time no see.
00:40:42Mr. Anderson. Pleasure's always. Please.
00:40:49I'm really looking forward to our collaboration.
00:40:51The whole industry is singing the phrases of the formidable Richard Harrington.
00:40:56Young, accomplished, and razor sharp.
00:41:00Who's this? Isn't Zoe supposed to be here?
00:41:03Don't tell me you found someone even better than her.
00:41:06She's on, um, other tasks at the moment.
00:41:10I see.
00:41:11Over the years, Zoe's always been top notch.
00:41:13If she weren't your assistant, I'd have snatched her up myself.
00:41:16Mr. Anderson, if you don't mind, let's cut to the chase now.
00:41:21Let's sign the contract.
00:41:23Of course.
00:41:25Richard!
00:41:26Richard!
00:41:27What the hell is this?
00:41:31What the hell is this?
00:41:39Lily actually scribbled all over the contract?
00:41:42I'm so dead. I should have checked before handing it to Richard.
00:41:46Richard!
00:41:49Who drew this up?
00:41:50Do you have any idea what you've just done?
00:41:53Get me Zoe now.
00:41:55Zoe, she...
00:41:56Mr. Harrington, if this is how your company does business, then I don't see any reason to continue with this deal.
00:42:01I trusted Hamilton so much. And this is how she repays me?
00:42:08I'm sorry, Richard. I...
00:42:10Who are you to barge in here like this? I'm speaking to Mr. Harrington right now.
00:42:15Mr. Anderson, this is entirely my fault. I'll have a revised contract drawn up for you right away.
00:42:19And to show how sorry we are, I'd like to offer you an additional 3% discount.
00:42:24Looks are just a bonus in an assistant. What counts is competence.
00:42:32I see you've really outdone yourself with this extraordinary assistant, Mr. Harrington.
00:42:42I see you've really outdone yourself with this extraordinary assistant, Mr. Harrington.
00:42:48I don't get it. What was Mr. Harrington thinking?
00:42:51Letting go of assistant Zoe just to keep the useless eye candy around?
00:42:56Ugh.
00:42:57It's absurd. Everyone knows Zoe was the one that kept this place running.
00:43:02Mr. Harrington, I never expected you to humiliate me like this.
00:43:07There's no reason for us to continue this partnership.
00:43:11Mr. Anderson, this is all just one big, um...
00:43:14Misunderstanding.
00:43:15Misunderstanding? Come on.
00:43:17This just shows you were never serious about working with me.
00:43:20You didn't have to tarnish my name just to reject a deal.
00:43:25Drawing a picture over my name of a pig just to insult me?
00:43:29Is this how you treat your partners?
00:43:31We will never work together again.
00:43:35What are we gonna do now?
00:43:37Mr. Anderson is our biggest client.
00:43:38If we lose this partnership, we will lose billions.
00:43:41Richard, I'm sorry. I had no idea something like this could happen.
00:43:46What do I do?
00:43:47What do I do?
00:43:56Zoe would never look at me like that.
00:43:58She's proud.
00:43:59Relentless. Always pushing for perfection.
00:44:01No matter how tough the job, she's never faltered.
00:44:05Unlike Evelyn.
00:44:07All tears and no backbone.
00:44:09Waiting for me to clean up her mess.
00:44:11If Zoe were here today, none of this would have happened.
00:44:14She's sharp.
00:44:16Capable.
00:44:17And Amy.
00:44:18She's a good kid.
00:44:19She'd never mess up my documents.
00:44:21Bring me Zoe.
00:44:23Where the hell is Zoe?
00:44:24Richard, please.
00:44:26Just...
00:44:28Leave.
00:44:30And from now on, stay out of company business.
00:44:32Richard, help me.
00:44:33Get out!
00:44:44Get ready for dinner tonight.
00:44:45You and me.
00:44:47And make sure to bring it in.
00:44:53Like I'm off to our show.
00:44:58Zoe.
00:45:01Let's take Amy out for fried chicken tonight.
00:45:04Just the three of us.
00:45:15Richard.
00:45:28Richard, you need to sign these.
00:45:30Just put them down and leave.
00:45:34Please, don't be upset.
00:45:37What happened today is entirely my fault.
00:45:39I'll make sure Lily behaves next time.
00:45:41I promise.
00:45:43No more trouble.
00:45:44Call me Mr. Harrington during work hours.
00:45:46I know I put you in as my personal assistant,
00:45:48but there still needs to be boundaries.
00:45:50Boundaries?
00:45:52Everyone knows I was his first and only true love.
00:45:57He completely doted on me.
00:45:59Even after he married Zoe, it was never out in the open.
00:46:01And now he's talking about boundaries?
00:46:02Richard.
00:46:03Don't you like me anymore?
00:46:05Why are you acting like this now?
00:46:06Evelyn's still in.
00:46:07She's not ready to be my personal assistant.
00:46:09Have her transfer to another department.
00:46:10Once she finally passes probation, bring her back.
00:46:11Richard.
00:46:12I know I messed up.
00:46:14I swear I won't let it happen again.
00:46:15Please.
00:46:16I don't know.
00:46:17Please.
00:46:19I don't know.
00:46:20I'm sorry.
00:46:21You're not.
00:46:22I'm sorry.
00:46:23Don't you like me anymore?
00:46:24Why are you acting like this now?
00:46:26Evelyn's still in.
00:46:27She's not ready to be my personal assistant.
00:46:29Have her transfer to another department.
00:46:32Once she finally passes probation, bring her back.
00:46:36Richard, I know I messed up.
00:46:40Don't do this to me.
00:46:43This is a business, not a playground.
00:46:46If you can't handle the job, you'll be demoted.
00:46:49Zoe never once failed me.
00:46:51She definitely didn't cry in front of me either.
00:46:53Fine.
00:46:56I understand.
00:47:02Zoe, why do you have to make my life a living hell even when you're gone?
00:47:07Zoe, looks like I have to take you out no matter what.
00:47:29Number 59?
00:47:37I didn't even know what Amy liked, so I just grabbed a little bit of everything.
00:47:43Figured this way I can see which one she prefers.
00:47:56Amy!
00:47:57I brought you some fried chicken, honey.
00:47:58Come down and try it.
00:47:59These are Amy's drawings of her and Zoe.
00:48:18There isn't a single one of me in it.
00:48:19Uncle Richard, will you be my model?
00:48:36I don't have time for this.
00:48:37Zoe, where did you take Amy?
00:48:58Amy!
00:48:58I thought leaving Richard would break me.
00:49:06That I'd be drowning in heartbreak.
00:49:08But the truth is, the moment I finally walked away,
00:49:12not wasting my life waiting for someone who never loved me to come home,
00:49:17I felt lighter than ever.
00:49:19Like I could finally breathe.
00:49:21No more dragging myself out of bed in the early morning to make him breakfast.
00:49:32No more choking down his cold, cutting words.
00:49:36Turns out, life without Richard feels pretty damn good.
00:49:41Good at that!
00:49:42Good job, high five!
00:49:59Woo!
00:49:59Come here!
00:50:02Mom, we should have left Uncle Richard sooner.
00:50:15Richard never let Amy go to places like this.
00:50:18He said amusement parks were a waste of time.
00:50:21But now, I just want her to have fun.
00:50:24I'm going to give her back every bit of happiness he took away.
00:50:28Is it good?
00:50:30Yeah, really good.
00:50:31Cheers.
00:50:32Woo!
00:50:32Oh, my God.
00:51:02Oh, my God.
00:51:33But, Mr. Harrington, call Zoe and bring her in and have her fix it.
00:51:39Let's see what excuse you'll find if you don't.
00:51:43Forget it.
00:51:45Call Zoe and have her come directly to my office.
00:51:48I want her to handle this personally.
00:51:52But, Mr. Harrington, Zoe's already resigned.
00:51:56We haven't been able to reach her since.
00:52:01Resigned?
00:52:03Who approved this, and why wasn't I informed?
00:52:06She said her husband works abroad.
00:52:11She's taken her daughter, Amy, to go join him.
00:52:13She put in her resignation.
00:52:15Why was I kept in the dark about something this important?
00:52:18Because you already demoted her to an entry-level position.
00:52:22By company policy, entry-level employees don't need your approval to resign.
00:52:26That's why no one informs you.
00:52:28Mr. Harrington, wait!
00:52:29What should we do now?
00:52:30Excuse me, sir.
00:52:37School's out.
00:52:38The kids have left already.
00:52:40Um, may I ask who you are?
00:52:43I'm here for Amy.
00:52:44Has she been coming to classes recently?
00:52:46Oh!
00:52:46Now I remember, you're Amy's dad.
00:52:50The one who walked right past his own wife and child, and then went on to pretend he was
00:52:55someone else's father at Open House.
00:52:58Fuck, Amy, she's...
00:53:00Amy is one of the kindest and brightest kids I have ever taught.
00:53:05Everyone adores her.
00:53:06But, um, since Open House, rumors have been spreading like wildfire.
00:53:12And Amy's been suffering a lot.
00:53:15What rumors?
00:53:16Look, that's all nonsense.
00:53:18I have nothing to do with Lily's mother.
00:53:21Lily is not my daughter.
00:53:23Why are you telling me this now?
00:53:25Amy's already withdrawn from school and left with her mother.
00:53:29When?
00:53:30The day after Open House.
00:53:32Maybe I've been too harsh on them.
00:53:35Daddy, you're home!
00:53:37Is she too dumb to understand my words, or is it you?
00:53:40How many times must I say this?
00:53:42She is never to call me Dad!
00:53:45I'm sorry, I'm going to kill you.
00:53:49You don't have to like me, but Amy is your daughter.
00:53:52How could you hurt her like this?
00:53:55Look, if you really want to help your wife and kid, go find them.
00:53:58Here's their new address.
00:54:15So what do you want Mommy to make you for dinner tonight?
00:54:17Pasta.
00:54:17Ooh, good idea.
00:54:19I love pasta.
00:54:21Finally, I found you.
00:54:23Zoe, we need to talk.
00:54:26Uncle Richard.
00:54:29He came after me?
00:54:30This is crazy.
00:54:32Come inside.
00:54:33I don't want to make a scene out here.
00:54:35So, you ran off with Amy and skipped the country just to get my attention.
00:54:47Now you have it.
00:54:49You happy?
00:54:50Can we go home now?
00:54:52Home?
00:54:53This is my home.
00:54:56Now please leave.
00:54:57Richard.
00:55:00Richard, stop it.
00:55:01Don't you get it?
00:55:02Amy and I are done with you.
00:55:04And we never want to see you again.
00:55:06Quit the act.
00:55:07Alright?
00:55:07We've been together for seven years.
00:55:11So I'll cut you some slack.
00:55:12Come home now.
00:55:14And I'll pretend none of this ever happened.
00:55:19Zoe!
00:55:20Are you out of your mind?
00:55:21My mind's never been clear.
00:55:23I am done wasting my life on a cocky jerk like you.
00:55:28Let's get a divorce.
00:55:30Divorce?
00:55:33We're never getting a divorce.
00:55:35Not now.
00:55:36Not ever.
00:55:37Why not?
00:55:38Isn't Evelyn the one that you've always loved?
00:55:41Divorce me.
00:55:42And you can finally meet with her.
00:55:44And live out the fantasy you've been chasing.
00:55:46Alright, enough.
00:55:47Alright.
00:55:48I get that you're jealous.
00:55:49Come home with me.
00:55:52And I promise I'll never see her again.
00:56:00Here.
00:56:02Divorce papers.
00:56:03Already signed.
00:56:19What the hell are you doing?
00:56:24I don't care what you signed.
00:56:26We're not getting a divorce, Zoe.
00:56:28And you're never going to leave me.
00:56:31Not now.
00:56:33Not ever.
00:56:34So.
00:56:36Oh.
00:56:37So now you can't let me go.
00:56:40What?
00:56:41Are you in love with me?
00:56:42Shut up.
00:56:43Oh.
00:56:45God.
00:56:46Roger.
00:56:47You really are in love with me.
00:56:52So it's true that
00:56:54you do have feelings for me.
00:57:02Don't touch me.
00:57:04You make me sick.
00:57:05Are you crazy?
00:57:06I thought you were.
00:57:08That I was madly in love with you.
00:57:13Damn right I was.
00:57:15I gave you everything.
00:57:18But I'm not your pet.
00:57:21Richard.
00:57:21You took my love and you trampled all over it.
00:57:26And what?
00:57:27You think after everything that you've done.
00:57:29That just saying I love you would ever pull me back.
00:57:32And what makes you think
00:57:35that after everything you've done
00:57:38I'm done with you.
00:57:41And I'm never going back.
00:57:48Damn.
00:57:50If you won't come back for me
00:57:52then what about for our daughter?
00:57:57You really think that she's going to want to call you father
00:58:00after all of this?
00:58:01That doesn't matter.
00:58:04You're never going to have custody of her.
00:58:08If you leave now
00:58:09you'll never see her again.
00:58:13Didn't really think that there now did you?
00:58:20You disgust me!
00:58:22You don't even care about her!
00:58:24And now you want to think about taking her away from me?
00:58:29Of course I care.
00:58:30She's my daughter too.
00:58:32And I will get the best lawyer
00:58:35in the entire world
00:58:37to make sure that you can never
00:58:39run off with her again.
00:58:42You bastard!
00:58:43Come on with me, Zoe.
00:58:51I'll treat you right.
00:58:53We can be a family again.
00:58:55I promise I'll treat you right.
00:58:56Come on now, Zoe.
00:58:59You don't want your daughter to grow up
00:59:01without a mother in her, do you?
00:59:03Do you?
00:59:05Please don't touch my mom, Uncle Richard.
00:59:07What if you just call me Amy?
00:59:13Amy, I'm your dad.
00:59:16Mom, don't worry about me.
00:59:19Don't come back with Uncle Richard.
00:59:21I can take care of myself.
00:59:22I can take care of myself.
00:59:37Fine.
00:59:39I'll come back with you.
00:59:41That's about it.
00:59:42This time,
00:59:43I'll make it right.
00:59:44I promise.
00:59:53Amy,
00:59:54no matter what happens,
00:59:57I'll always be here for you.
00:59:59I'll always be here for you.
01:00:14It's been two weeks
01:00:15since I came back.
01:00:18He hasn't called Evelyn once
01:00:20and he even fired her.
01:00:26Honey.
01:00:29I'm home.
01:00:31Is it for you?
01:00:34It's too late, Richard.
01:00:36Stop wasting your time.
01:00:43Don't like this?
01:00:44Fine.
01:00:48What about these?
01:00:50Not to your taste, either.
01:00:53Well,
01:00:54just tell me what you like
01:00:55and I'll have my assistant go
01:00:57and pick them up.
01:00:58What I want
01:00:59is to stay as far away from you as possible.
01:01:14Didn't I tell you
01:01:21to stop calling me?
01:01:22Richard,
01:01:23Evelyn tried to commit suicide.
01:01:25She cut her wrist
01:01:26because you won't come to see her.
01:01:28Come over to the hospital.
01:01:30Please.
01:01:32All right.
01:01:33I'm coming.
01:01:34Zoe, you bitch.
01:01:41I should have finished you off
01:01:42when I had the chance.
01:01:43And it doesn't matter now.
01:01:49Richard's coming.
01:01:51At the end of the day,
01:01:53it's me he loves the most.
01:01:55Richard,
01:01:59you're here.
01:02:04I'm sorry.
01:02:05I didn't mean to take my own life.
01:02:07I just,
01:02:09I missed you
01:02:10so much.
01:02:11Thank God you came.
01:02:16I knew,
01:02:16I knew you still cared.
01:02:18Look,
01:02:18I'm here to give you
01:02:19one final warning.
01:02:21Either you stop pestering me
01:02:23or I'll have you sent over sex.
01:02:25Richard,
01:02:27you used to love me so much,
01:02:28remember?
01:02:29Didn't you even risk your own life
01:02:31to save me once?
01:02:32Love you?
01:02:34The woman I loved
01:02:35was kind,
01:02:37not a venomous snake
01:02:39like you are now.
01:02:41What are you trying to say?
01:02:48Pathetic tricks.
01:02:50Time and time again.
01:02:53First you framed Zoe,
01:02:54now you're faking a suicide
01:02:56just to get my attention?
01:02:59Did you really think
01:02:59I wouldn't see right through you?
01:03:02Let me get this straight.
01:03:03The only woman I love
01:03:04is Zoe.
01:03:05You make me sick.
01:03:28Zoe,
01:03:29you bitch!
01:03:30I'll make you pay.
01:03:35Go to hell.
01:03:37If I can't have Richard,
01:03:38no one can.
01:03:40So Amy,
01:03:41how was your day at school?
01:03:42Watch out!
01:03:42I'll make you happy.
01:03:58I'll make you happy.
01:03:58Don't let them know.
01:04:00Richard,
01:04:00stay with me.
01:04:02Oh my God,
01:04:03somebody help!
01:04:04Zoe,
01:04:05you still have feelings for me.
01:04:07Dad,
01:04:08please,
01:04:08don't go to sleep.
01:04:09Don't go to sleep,
01:04:11please.
01:04:11If you call me Dad again, if only I could turn back to Mom, we could be a family again.
01:04:32Richard!
01:04:36Richard, we've come to see you again.
01:04:39Evelyn has been sentenced. She'll spend the rest of her life in jail, just as has been soon.
01:04:47And we're doing just fine.
01:04:50Daddy, I got elected class president again. Are you proud of me?
01:04:56Daddy, it's okay. I forgive you. And just so you know, my new dad takes really good care of me and Mommy.
01:05:09We'll come see her again soon.
01:05:15Daddy!
01:05:19You okay?
01:05:21Let's go home.
