00:01Then you must owe me lunch.
00:03Get in, Alexandros.
00:04You will lose everything over this.
00:06Your name, your position.
00:08They run the country pretty much.
00:10That's who I just had breakfast with?
00:11I was supposed to take over.
00:13Elena was part of the plan.
00:14Then what am I?
00:15You're the first thing I've ever chosen for myself.
00:17You walk away from me now.
00:18You are not walking away clean.
00:20Wait, she's pregnant?
00:22Something about this whole Elena thing doesn't add up.
00:24Your father's concerned.
00:26There's been talk about that girl.
00:28You will marry Elena.
00:29She fits the life you were born with.
00:32Well, if she won't leave on her own,
00:35it will help her.
00:37Is that what they think I am?
00:38A passing storm?
00:39She's just trying to scare you.
00:41The only reason any of this is happening is because of Elena.
00:43Then stop letting her win.
00:45Whatever Elena started, all ended.
00:47What exactly am I being paid for?
00:49To forget us all and to forget Greece.
00:52You can't buy me off.
00:53Still ignoring my text, huh?
00:54Andrew? Are you stalking me?
00:56People who care, I get their business to know.
00:58I can't run the company anymore, Alex.
01:01It's your turn to lead.
01:02I never wanted the crown.
01:04I'll respect what you built.
01:05I'll protect it.
01:06But only on my terms.
01:07I love Kate.
01:08She's part of my future.
01:09You really think we can win against them?
01:11Only if we stop playing nice.
01:13Either we keep up or get replaced.
01:15I'm just scared of what this might mean for us.
01:18No matter what happens now.
01:20You're not doing this alone.
01:22What happens now?
01:23What happens now?
01:24What happens now?
01:25Wait a minute.
01:26You feel too big.
01:27What happens now?
01:28Wait a minute.

22:21investors see stability
22:23i'm not building a life
22:25with someone i've already left
22:26in the past

22:28if you cut it
22:30will cost the whole family
22:32then you built the wrong family
22:36he's inside
22:47i thought you'd want to hear it all
22:49from him
22:50he said you asked for me
22:58of course he did
23:00you said you came to walk away
23:02but this place will always own you

23:06let's see what it will take
23:10for you to walk away

23:29your son is in your property
23:31neither am i
23:32he was supposed to lead our company
23:33not run off with a tourist
23:35what's going on
23:36your mother just tried
23:38to send me back to america
23:39if she truly cared
23:44she would leave on her own
23:45enough
23:46this ends here
23:48if she stays
23:49or if she goes
23:50that's her choice
23:51not yours
23:52so that went well
24:00i'm sorry
24:01she'll stop
24:03she won't
24:08but i'm not leaving
24:10enjoy your fairy tale
24:25kate
24:33what now
24:35this was just dropped off
24:40at the estate
24:41just to your father
24:43and the board
24:44she's twisting everything
24:53making it seem like i'm not in my right mind
24:55it's already been forwarded to legal
24:57she's playing hardball now
24:59and what
24:59you're just the messenger
25:00you ask for honesty
25:02i'm just delivering it
25:03she lies
25:04slanders
25:05and yet she still ends up protected
25:06she's not protected
25:07she's strategic
25:09how unhinged is she
25:11the timing makes this impossible
25:19she's bluffing
25:20and desperate
25:21i passed mark on the hallway
25:25what happened
25:27a letter she sent to my father
25:28and the board
25:29and she slipped this in
25:31like it proves anything
25:34wait
25:34she's pregnant
25:35that's what she wants people to think
25:37but i know it's not mine
25:38the math doesn't add up
25:40and she sends that
25:41instead of saying a word
25:42that's the point
25:43she doesn't want to talk
25:44she wanted leverage
25:45then what now
25:47just give me time
25:48i'll prove it
25:49and then i'm done
25:49it's quiet out here

31:42that doesn't just happen
31:43you think i planned this
31:44i don't know what to think anymore

32:05i don't even remember that photo
32:07well someone does
32:08maybe this is all a mistake from the beginning
32:10one crack that's all it takes
32:19one crack that's all it takes
32:24and that's all it takes
32:28you're gonna say you're caught cheating
32:29while ex-fiancé expecting
32:31they don't even pretend to ask if it's true
32:34is your name in there too
32:35i should have seen it coming
32:36they want me gone
32:38Then don't leave.
32:40Let them choke in their own mess.
32:47Sit.
32:49Let's keep it civil, shall we?
32:52The doctors told me I have to take it easy.
32:54Stress at my age isn't exactly harmless.
32:58Then stop fueling it. You and Mom both.
33:01The board wants clarity.
33:04I think I've lost control.
33:07So, I'm considering naming a successor.
33:10You're asking me to choose between the life I want and the life you've chosen.
33:14That's not clarity. That's blackmail.
33:16I'm asking you to think.
33:19Because once this is done, there's no undoing it.
33:23And don't forget, Elena has been loyal to us.
33:27Why would you say that?
33:29Because you're not the only candidate.
33:32Especially when she's carrying the next generation of our family.
33:36You haven't looked at me since we got back to Athens.
33:45I'm trying to fix this and clear our names.
33:48Maybe the easiest fix is still for me to go.
33:50Kate, please don't say that.
33:51The only reason any of this is happening is because of Elena.
33:54Then stop letting her win.
33:56Do you really think I believe she's pregnant?
33:58What if it's staged?
33:59Or someone else's baby?
34:00Maybe.
34:01But she's still using every second to twist the truth.
34:05You need to see this.
34:07Now.
34:08What is it?
34:09I passed the florist in black and someone dropped this.
34:11I grabbed it before they could.
34:13Your mom sent it.
34:18She wanted you to think I lied.
34:20Tell me again this wasn't planned.
34:22Elena's the reason my mother's acting like this.
34:26She wants you gone.
34:27She's using everyone to do it.
34:29Then let's make sure she's the one who disappears.
34:32They tried to break us.
34:35And if I hadn't opened that envelope, maybe they would have.
34:38Whatever Elena started, all ended.
34:41We leave tomorrow.
34:42Let's go back to Mykonos.
34:43Just us.
35:02Let's go back to Mykonos.
35:22Your family tried to buy me off.
35:24Dig into my past like I'm some threat to your future.
35:28They're afraid of you.
35:29Because you don't want anything from them.
35:31That makes you dangerous.
35:32And I'm done protecting their fears.
35:34Maybe it's time we hit back with our own story.
35:37On our terms.
35:38You really think we can win against them?
35:40Only if we stop playing nice.
35:53Are you coming to the house?
35:54You should have called first.
35:56I figured surprises were your thing.
35:58This isn't how civilized people handle conflict.
36:02Neither is hiring investigators or sending bribes in envelopes.
36:05But here we are.
36:06If you think you're intimidating me.
36:08I'm not here to scare you.
36:10Just to warn you.
36:11A threat.
36:12A fact.
36:13You tried to ruin my relationship.
36:15You failed.
36:16Keep pushing and the next thing you'll lose won't be a schemer.
36:19It will be your son.
36:20You're very bold, Miss Miller.
36:22That's the polite way to say you underestimated me.
36:25No records.
36:26No scandal.
36:27Just some love letters.
36:28No records.
36:29No scandal.
36:30Just some love letters.
36:32I won't need your services anymore.
36:34Oh well.
36:35Sooner or later, Eleanor will sort something out.
36:53I assumed I would see you eventually.
37:04Because of theatrics.
37:05Why'd you send the flowers?
37:06I didn't send flowers.
37:08I sent a warning.
37:09You used Kate's pass as a weapon.
37:11You really want her gone that badly?
37:13Can't you just see how incompatible she is in our world?
37:17And what about Elena?
37:18You really think she belongs?
37:20What if her baby isn't mine?
37:23Then don't say it out loud unless you are really sure.
37:29Paternity test?
37:32You really think she'd fake something like this?
37:34Yes, I do.
37:35Be careful, Alex.
37:37Accusing her means accusing the whole family for trusting her.
37:45Do it quietly.
37:47And don't bring shame on the family unless you're sure she earned it.
37:56She picked the battlefield.
37:57Now I have to fight on her terms.
38:01Now we see how far she's really willing to go.
38:12Hey.
38:13We need to talk.
38:14I need the truth.
38:16Hey, Alex.
38:17You're putting me in an impossible situation.
38:19No, Elena has.
38:20Look, Alex, after you left, she was a wreck.
38:24She started calling, dropping by.
38:27And one night she kissed me, and I didn't stop it.
38:31I thought it would blow over, but it didn't.
38:33And when she said she was pregnant, did you do the math?
38:36Look, I don't know if I'm the father.
38:38I know there may be a chance, but I know I should have told you sooner.
38:43Lisa didn't lie to my face.
38:54He's treating me like a liar.
38:56He wants a paternity test.
38:59You'll let him humiliate me like that?
39:02After everything I've done for this family?
39:04You need to rest, Elena.
39:06The stress isn't good for you.
39:16Guess that test just became pointless.
39:21There's no coming back from this.
39:23Even for her.
39:26We've reviewed everything.
39:28Your messages, the clinical records you never disclosed.
39:31You went through my private medical files?
39:33You dragged our name into the press.
39:36And just to protect your position, not the family.
39:40Marco has been fired.
39:42You're leaving the company effective immediately.
39:45You can't be serious.
39:46We're done being embarrassed.
39:47Please leave.
39:54I'm glad she chose to leave the country in the end.
39:58Maybe she was never meant for this.
39:59Then who is?
40:02Leo?
40:06Leo?
40:08Someone help! Leo!
40:09Leo!
40:10He's stable for now.
40:20But we need to keep him under observation.
40:22You care about him?
40:23Of course I do.
40:24Then understand this.
40:25We've all made choices.
40:26We later may be regretted.
40:27But no one in this family has acted with malice.
40:28And yet it cost you almost everything.
40:29Then be better than we are.
40:30That's the plan.
40:31That's the plan.
41:02succession would be clear.
41:04But he didn't say if Alex wants it.
41:06It doesn't matter what he wants anymore.
41:09The company needs a future,
41:11and this can't fall into the wrong hands.
41:14It has to be Alex.
41:16There is no one else.
41:26Mom, you said something in that meeting about the company.
41:29I said what your father should have said years ago.
41:31Do you really think it's the right time?
41:33No one is ever ready.
41:34But you've done what most people wouldn't dare.
41:37You stood up for your life.
41:39I didn't do any of it alone.
41:40I know.
41:41You made him stronger.
41:43Thank you for staying.
41:45We made each other stronger.
41:46And you didn't just stay.
41:48You fought.
41:49He's worth it.
41:50I spent my life guarding our family status.
41:52But you two are building something real.
41:55Then help us protect it.
41:57He's awake, and he asks for you.
42:00I can't run the company anymore, Alex.
42:13It's your turn to lead.
42:15I never wanted the crown.
42:17Nobody ever does.
42:19Not if they're decent or smart like you.
42:22I'll respect what you built.
42:24I'll protect it.
42:25But only on my terms.
42:27I love Kate.
42:29She's part of my future.
42:30And I see that now.
42:32If I do this, it won't be to preserve the past.
42:35It'll be to build something better.
42:37Then build it.
42:39But don't lose yourself in the process.
42:43Your life belongs to you now, Alex.
42:54So, what did you decide?
42:57I said yes.
42:58But I told him this time, I'm not choosing between love and family.
43:03Just make sure they know that.
43:05And make sure they mean it.
43:07Your father's a tender from the last six months.
43:19I'll take it from here.
43:25Kate, I'm sorry.
43:27Give me an hour and I'll call you back, okay?
43:30It's okay.
43:31I understand.
43:32I meant it when I said I wouldn't let them get between us.
43:34And that includes his company.
43:36And I'm not asking you to choose.
43:37I'm asking you to show up.
43:45What exactly am I being paid for?
43:47To forget us all and to forget Greece.
43:51Maybe I was just the exception until the rules start applying again.
43:55Six months in Paris.
44:00It's the life I wanted before any of this.
44:05Funny how the thing I wanted the most still wants me back.
44:10This time, I need to choose myself.
44:25You know we could have stayed in Athens longer.
44:31It didn't feel right.
44:33I wanted us to say goodbye to this place too.
44:35You got the offer, didn't you?
44:37Six months in Paris.
44:39You're stepping into your world.
44:40I need to figure out what to do with mine.
44:42We'll make it work.
44:43I want us to, Alex.
44:45But I can't keep putting my life on pause.
44:48And I'm not asking you to.
44:50I'm just asking you to find a way together.
44:53Are you sure you don't want me to drive you?
44:58It's better if I go alone.
45:01Even if we're not together every day for a while,
45:03you're still the person I want to build the rest of my life with.
45:11I know we're strong.
45:13I just hope we don't forget how to come back.
45:23Hey.
45:24How's Paris treating you today?
45:25Busy.
45:26Beautiful.
45:27They want to feature my work in an opening preview.
45:29That's huge, Kate.
45:30It feels like a dream.
45:31But it still feels better when I hear your voice.
45:33I miss you.
45:34I booked a flight for Friday.
45:35And again next week.
45:36I'm not going to let distance come between us.
45:37You're flying out here?
45:38Every weekend I can.
45:39I'm not good at long distance, but I'll do everything I can to be there.
45:41Are you making the effort?
45:42That's what matters.
45:43I don't know.
45:44I don't know.
45:45I don't know.
45:46I don't know.
45:47I don't know.
45:48Alex, you need to come to the hospital now.
45:50It's your father.
45:51I don't know.
45:52I don't know.
45:53It's your only time.
45:54I love you.
45:55But, I love you.
45:56I love you.
45:57Thank you, Pam.
45:58I love you.
45:59You're welcome.
46:00I love you.
46:01I love you.
46:02You like that?
46:03I love you.
46:04I love you.
46:07I love you, Pam.
46:09I love you.
46:11I love you.
46:12I love you.
46:13I love you.
46:15I love me.
46:16I love you.
46:17Was the funeral how he wouldn't want it?
46:30He hated long speeches.
46:32I kept it short, just like he did with his praise.
46:36Now his name's on the marble wall,
46:38and I'm expected to fill the space he left behind.
46:41He always trusted you, even when he didn't say it.
46:44I'll do everything I can to honor his legacy,
46:47but I'm not him,
46:48and I hope people would stop expecting me to be.
46:51You don't have to do it his way.
46:53You just have to lead, like yourself.
47:14If they still think I'm his weakness,
47:17they've clearly underestimated both of us.
47:24You push this through without consensus.
47:26No, I push this through
47:28because it's delivering 50% growth month over month.
47:31New markets, new partnerships.
47:33That's how we move ahead.
47:35Yeah, we didn't have.
47:36My father is in here,
47:37and I'm not here to imitate him.
47:39We build upon my father's legacy,
47:41but the world is changing.
47:42Either we keep up or get replaced.
47:46You just closed the biggest deal in years.
47:48Why do you look so lost?
47:50Kate should have been here.
47:52Alex, I spent my entire life guarding your name,
47:55but after your father,
47:57I see it means nothing without love.
48:00I don't want to lose her, Mom.
48:02Then give her more than a place in your heart.
48:05Let's help her build something here,
48:07something that's truly hers.
48:12The space looks beautiful.
48:23I still can't believe this is really happening.
48:26Well, the space is all yours for however long you want.
48:30You can stay in Athens if you want.
48:32That's generous, and a lot.
48:34But I'd be lying if I said it didn't feel right.
48:37Well, you don't have to decide now,
48:39but I see how steady you make him feel,
48:42and he needs that.
48:43And maybe I need a place that I can grow
48:46and still be with him.
48:48Maybe this is it.
48:50Let's make this quick.
48:52We need to leave in 20 minutes
48:53to get to Kate's gallery opening.
48:54We've got bigger problem.
48:55Eleanor's contracts are a mess,
48:57and the press is circling.
48:58If we don't get ahead of it,
48:59this will land on your desk.
49:01I gave my word.
49:02Then consider what your absence here, then,
49:04says about your priorities.
49:05Then let's fix it.
49:26You said you'd come.
49:27I looked for you all day.
49:29I know.
49:29I'm sorry.
49:30The board dropped a mess in my lap,
49:31and missing this,
49:33it's the last time I make that mistake.
49:34This isn't about this.
49:35It's about you showing me I'm not alone here.
49:37Kate, you're not alone.
49:39Not now.
49:40Not ever.
49:42Will you marry me, Kate?
49:44Yes.
49:46Yes.
49:53Kate, are you okay?
49:54Yes.
49:55It's just a wave of something.
49:56And I need to sit down.
49:58Okay.
50:08Really taking that old mug with you?
50:10It's the one I use every morning here.
50:12It kind of feels like it holds more than coffee now.
50:15Are you okay?
50:16You seem very skeptical.
50:18I'm just tired.
50:19Trying not to think too much.
50:21Maybe try thinking out loud with me.
50:23Maybe later.
50:24Okay.
50:24Okay.
50:24Okay.
50:24Okay.
50:24Okay.
50:24Okay.
50:54Kate.
51:08Oh, Brendan.
51:12Are you okay?
51:16I don't know.
51:19I'm just scared of what this might mean for us, for everything.
51:23Hey, we need to start something new, together.
51:28I keep thinking of everything we've been through.
51:31All the noise, the pressure.
51:34What if it all starts again?
51:35Then we shut it out.
51:37We don't need to prove anything to anyone anymore.
51:41You really think we can start a family without letting all the old stuff get in the way?
51:46We won't follow their rules.
51:47We'll make our own.
51:48No matter what happens now, you're not doing this alone.
51:55This is really happening.
52:08Finally.
52:09No chaos, no cameras, no George Ropolis drama.
52:12Just us, Lena, and the sea.
52:15And a few nosy neighbors, maybe.
52:16Exactly.
52:18The wedding I never knew I wanted.
52:23You two survived secrets, scandals, and at least three people who tried to sabotage this.
52:30So let's keep the drama and get to the good part.
52:32Also, I'm only legally ordained because of a dare and too much wine.
52:38That sounds about right.
52:39If either of you objects, blink twice now so I can run.
52:44Not blinking.
52:45Great.
52:46Then by the power of Estes and me, by the internet and questionable life choices,
52:51I now pronounce you very brave.
52:55Or possibly just in love.
52:58I choose you every day, no matter where the story tastes.
53:03So let's write it again.
53:04Do you think they'll believe we really do this?
53:18They'll see it in everything we build next.
53:24But I'd be lying if I said it didn't feel right.
53:28I'm going to be lying if I said it.
