Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Mr. Marco had a widow named Eva Jackson, and she was carrying his child.
00:00:07I'm gonna bring my daughter-in-law home, where she belongs.
00:00:12My brother, I will protect your legacy, and I will protect our family.
00:00:18Who are you, really?
00:00:21A mere day she has swung with our family out of millions of dollars.
00:00:26I've wanted Luca for years, and then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks.
00:00:31If I can't have him, I'll destroy him.
00:00:35Your life belongs to us.
00:00:38Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.
00:00:43From this moment forward, I swear to you, nobody will ever hurt you again.
00:00:49I guess my brother had good reason to fall for her.
00:00:56Eva, you're so close.
00:01:00Is this a dream?
00:01:03If anyone sees us like this, they'll immediately send us.
00:01:08Eva, I have fallen in love with you.
00:01:11I'm your brother's wife.
00:01:12We didn't do anything wrong, so why are you worried?
00:01:14If you knew I had feelings for your brother, would you hate me?
00:01:19I should never have let you go undercover on that damn business deal.
00:01:36I never even got to say goodbye.
00:01:38Marco, my brother, I will protect your legacy, and I will protect our family.
00:01:43Hey, hey!
00:01:44Who are you?
00:01:45Which family do you work for?
00:01:46I just came to drop off the flowers.
00:01:47I didn't mean to retreat.
00:01:48Luca.
00:01:49Look at her.
00:01:50She's hardly a threat.
00:01:51For the flowers, and for the interruption, my partner.
00:01:52I will protect our family.
00:01:53Hey, hey!
00:01:54Who are you?
00:01:55Which family do you work for?
00:01:56I just came to drop off the flowers.
00:01:57I didn't mean to retreat.
00:01:58Luca.
00:01:59Look at her.
00:02:00She's hardly a threat.
00:02:01For the flowers, and for the interruption, my apologies.
00:02:22Senor Mancini, Mr. Marco had a widow named Ava Jackson, and she was carrying his child.
00:02:31Get the car.
00:02:32Let me bring my daughter-in-law home, where she belongs.
00:02:43Don't worry, little one.
00:02:45We'll get through this together.
00:02:48Somehow.
00:02:49Well, looky here.
00:02:54The family jinx is finally six feet under.
00:02:57Derek!
00:02:58Have you lost your mind?
00:02:59What the hell was that?
00:03:00Don't tell me that you're actually planning on keeping that little parasite.
00:03:13This is Marco's baby.
00:03:16This is our child.
00:03:18Of course I'm keeping it.
00:03:20Ever since you got knocked up, you've done nothing to help this family.
00:03:25We've been struggling while you've been out here playing the grieving widow.
00:03:29Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.
00:03:34Because you owe me.
00:03:37This is your fault.
00:03:40I dropped out of college for this family.
00:03:43I took five jobs.
00:03:44What more could you possibly want?
00:03:45You'll never be enough, Ava.
00:03:47You'll owe us till the day you die.
00:03:49Please.
00:03:50Sweetheart.
00:03:51Think of your brother.
00:03:55I'm gonna stomp out that little bastard right now.
00:04:01Send him straight to hell.
00:04:03So he can say hello to his deadbeat dad.

00:21:35happens to her the baby you want that liability we can't fire her but we certainly can make her life
00:21:42difficult enough that she decides to quit on her own
00:22:05and that concludes our quarterly revenue projections
00:22:07sir forgive my directness but are we here because you're concerned about your sister-in-law
00:22:23should i have the car brought around for your next meeting cancel the meeting
00:22:31i've been meaning to talk to you given your condition i've been worried about

00:22:43take advantage of company policy oh glad to hear that then you won't mind proving your commitment
00:22:51sell one million dollars worth of merchandise by today and i'll put all of my concerns to rest
00:22:58i've seen your sales record i know you can do it
00:23:07and they just keep on going to keep you in place
00:23:11in the next meeting
00:23:11and you can't check my videos
00:23:13and i'll grab my Instagram

00:23:26Sleep over the lines that say we won't cross
00:23:28But you can as if you're nothing
00:23:30Then once it's coming
00:23:32Scale all the walls they built to hold us
00:23:35They may be blinding me
00:23:38Just wait and see
00:23:40Sir, half an hour until closing
00:23:43and Mrs. Mancini has already surpassed the store's average monthly sales in a single day
00:23:48But she's still a great deal short of the manager's impossible target
00:23:56She did make it clear that she doesn't want any special treatment
00:23:59But I have been neglecting my own wardrobe
00:24:02And the Rossi family event will require several new suits
00:24:06Now that you mention it, sir
00:24:07Your formal collection is missing quite a few essential items
00:24:11And I should do some personal shopping
00:24:13Shouldn't I?
00:24:19Sir, may I assist you?
00:24:21Sir!
00:24:22This limited edition silk tie would go perfect with your complexion
00:24:25Sir, I'd be happy to take your measurements
00:24:27Personally
00:24:28Sir, as store manager
00:24:31I would be honored to assist you with your needs myself
00:24:34I'd actually like Miss Jackson to assist me
00:24:38I hear her taste in men's fashion is exceptional
00:24:41Shall we begin?
00:24:47Right this way, sir
00:24:48I just need to take your measurements
00:24:55Whoa, what are you doing?
00:25:00Do you measure the bucket?
00:25:02I just needed you to take the jacket off
00:25:04Well, we don't have much time
00:25:07I know
00:25:14Now
00:25:19Measure me like this
00:25:22Okay
00:25:27Mm-hmm
00:25:27Ava
00:25:50Time is almost up
00:25:52I did it!
00:26:10I saved my job
00:26:12And I made a new sales record
00:26:14Thank you
00:26:16There's no reason to thank me
00:26:17I'm here to help
00:26:19Whenever you need help
00:26:20I hate to do this
00:26:23But
00:26:24Ava Jackson
00:26:25You're fired
00:26:27What?
00:26:31No
00:26:31I met your target
00:26:33And then some
00:26:34Oh
00:26:34That last sale
00:26:36The one that put you over the top
00:26:38That was actually mine
00:26:39You're trying to sell my commission
00:26:41Well, that won't work
00:26:43Because everyone in this store
00:26:45Saw me make that sale
00:26:46I get it
00:26:52You threatened them into silence
00:26:54Well, that won't work either
00:26:55Because the security cameras
00:26:57Caught everything
00:26:58Security cameras?
00:27:08What horrible timing
00:27:10Unfortunately
00:27:11The security cameras
00:27:12Are down for maintenance today
00:27:14But fortunately
00:27:16Everyone here
00:27:17Saw you
00:27:18Destroy thousands of dollars
00:27:19Worth of merchandise
00:27:20You all saw me, huh?
00:27:22Didn't you?
00:27:23Yeah
00:27:24We
00:27:24We all saw it
00:27:25So someone should call security
00:27:28Better yet
00:27:29Call the police
00:27:30I'm sorry, sir
00:27:39But we're closed for the day
00:27:40I heard this store get trashed
00:27:42I'm going to have to ask you to leave
00:27:43Or I'm going to have to call the police
00:27:45The police work for me
00:27:46Are you?
00:27:49Luca Mancini?
00:27:56So?
00:28:00You three
00:28:01You're six
00:28:04You're six
00:28:05You're six
00:28:08You're six
00:28:08About
00:28:09You're six
00:28:10Want
00:28:11But you
00:28:12To
00:28:13You
00:28:14You're six
00:28:14That John
00:28:15You're six
00:28:15We
00:28:28Please stop! I admit it, I was wrong!
00:28:46Who really damaged the merchandise in this store? The items that you destroyed are worth over several millions of dollars at five years of prison!
00:28:53Michael, what happened? There's nothing more talking about when you negotiate.
00:29:00And by the way, you're fired! Let's go. Mom could just do it.
00:29:09How dare that woman mess with my family! I will make sure, personally, that she suffers for it!
00:29:18You don't have to worry about that anymore. It's all taken care of, thanks to Luca.
00:29:23The store looked like a tornado hit it. Man who will be serving time in a jail cell. Justice is served.
00:29:29That's my board.
00:29:34Sweetheart, I would like you to concentrate full-time on your pregnancy right now.
00:29:39All of this work drama can wait until after my grandchild is born safely.
00:29:44Yes, Mom.
00:29:46I transferred five million dollars into your personal account for prenatal care.
00:29:51I am worried about the baby's well-being.
00:29:54Luca, I'd like you to take her to the doctor tomorrow for an exam.
00:29:58No, that's, that's really not necessary.
00:30:05I have those meetings in Europe, so possibly I could have someone to substitute in.
00:30:10Yeah, and I'm perfectly capable of going by myself.
00:30:13I, uh, I don't want to travel, Luca, with something so routine.
00:30:19It's decided. Cancel whatever meetings you have. I want you to take her. I will not stand for any more incidents.
00:30:28Yes, Mother.
00:30:30No.
00:30:43Ava Jackson, we're ready for you now. Dad should come too. We encourage partner participation.
00:30:50Oh no, he's not.
00:30:53Would you prefer that I explain that I'm your dead husband's brother? That might be a bit awkward.
00:31:01Mr. and Mrs. Jackson, please come in when you're ready.
00:31:03Coming.
00:31:11If you could lift your top up slightly and lower your skirt band just a bit, we'll get started.
00:31:24First prenatal checkup together, I'm guessing.
00:31:32The baby looks perfectly healthy. Current length is about three inches with a strong heart rate.
00:31:40Is the baby moving?
00:31:42Yes, indeed.
00:31:44Look there. The little one's making faces.
00:31:48Quite the expressive child already.
00:31:51Dad, don't you want to come take a look?
00:32:02The baby's at 18 weeks, now developing beautifully.
00:32:09For home care, I recommend plenty of rest, nutrient-rich foods, and tactile bonding when possible.
00:32:18Tactile bonding?
00:32:20Yes. It's quite beneficial for fetal development.
00:32:24Come over here and place your hands on her belly.
00:32:27Doctor, is that really appropriate?
00:32:30What's inappropriate about it? This is what husbands do.
00:32:37Okay.
00:32:38Okay.
00:32:51Sorry, did I hurt you?
00:32:53No, no. It just feels strange.
00:32:57Like this. Top to bottom. Left to right. Gentle strokes.
00:33:03Got it.
00:33:05Got it.
00:33:07Got it.
00:33:09Do this once daily, five to ten minutes each.
00:33:13You can sit up now.
00:33:16You can sit up now.
00:33:24So, everything good with the baby?
00:33:27Any special instructions I should know about?
00:33:30Nothing.
00:33:32The doctor did say that the baby is developing beautifully and there's nothing to worry about.
00:33:36Good news then.
00:33:38Before I forget, the Rossi family's daughter is having her birthday celebration next weekend and we should all attend.
00:33:50The Rossi family?
00:33:52Technically, they're our business rivals, but social niceties must be maintained.
00:33:57And she has had an embarrassing crush on Luca since they were little children.
00:34:04Mom, please.
00:34:06Miss Sofia Rossi has arrived unannounced.
00:34:10She shows up without calling? How gauche.
00:34:14Should we send Eva upstairs?
00:34:16No, no, it's fine. I'm here. We can just...
00:34:21Good evening, Mrs. Mancini. Luca! I came to personally deliver my birthday invitation.
00:34:26Okay?
00:34:30Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:33Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:35Hey, hey, hey. Rossi's family lack of manners never disappoints me.
00:34:39Luca Mancini, how dare you speak to me like that?
00:34:43Miss Rossi, I've heard so much about your family.
00:34:47I'm Eva, Marco's wife. Marco was Luca's brother.
00:34:52Oh, okay. I thought you were carrying Luca's baby.
00:34:59That's good, because we're nice ones.
00:35:02I came all this way to bring you that, and this is how you welcome me?
00:35:06Don't disappoint me at the party, darling.
00:35:08Or something sharp.
00:35:09See if there's any connection between that pregnant woman and Luca.
00:35:25I'm not buying this whole sister-in-law act for one second.
00:35:28You got it.
00:35:29You look so handsome.
00:35:39Well, well, well. It looks like my stubborn son has good taste after all.
00:35:44Luca did an excellent job selecting this gown. It is perfect for you.
00:35:49Luca picked this?
00:35:53I've never been anywhere this fancy before.
00:35:57I might embarrass you guys.
00:35:59Oh, don't even worry about it.
00:36:02You are my pride and joy.
00:36:05Besides, Luca will be with us the whole time, and he'll make sure everything runs smoothly.
00:36:12Luca?
00:36:14What about her shoes? How could you forget something so basic?
00:36:20I don't know.
00:36:46Right there.

00:37:52you're Lucas sister-in-law why don't you entertain us all with a performance of
00:37:56some kind look she used to deliver food for a living waitress retail clerk

00:40:18Yeah, I always enjoy these type of events.
00:40:20Me too. That habit's good.
00:40:22From Miss Rossi. The accompaniments.
00:40:25Cheers.
00:40:30Sir, that drink is almost certainly drugged.
00:40:32Obviously.
00:40:33Is the Rossi family making a move against us?
00:40:36These tensions have been simmering for years.
00:40:38Should we respond preemptively?
00:40:44Do nothing. You just need to focus on protecting Ava.
00:40:49We'll see what they have planned.
00:40:57Darling, you look tired.
00:40:59I don't think all this excitement is good for your condition.
00:41:02Why don't you try to find Luca and let's get you home.
00:41:05I don't think so.
00:41:06Okay.
00:41:08SofÃa's bedroom, why is Luca's phone in there and why am I jealous?
00:41:38I've wanted Luca for years and then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks.
00:41:57You won't look so innocent when everyone sees you in bed next to your dead husband's brother.
00:42:06This isn't exactly how you wanted it.
00:42:09Not at all. This isn't convincing. Unbutton their clothes.
00:42:19Sal, position them closer together. Make it look more intimate.
00:42:23Perfect. Let's go. Our masterpiece is complete. Now we just have to bring you an audience.
00:42:34I expected much more than just this juvenile prank from my business partner.
00:42:46Ava, wake up. Ava. Ava.
00:43:01Ava. Ava.
00:43:03Ava.
00:43:04Ava.
00:43:13Oh my God.
00:43:16What happened to us?
00:43:20This is bad.
00:43:23If anyone sees us like this, they'll immediately assume the worst.
00:43:38Luca, wake up.
00:43:45Okay.
00:43:47Jesus.
00:43:48People are coming.
00:43:49You're acting like we had some tort affair. We didn't do anything wrong, so why are you worrying?
00:43:53I'm your late brother's widow and I'm carrying his child. If anyone sees us like this, the Mancini family name won't be destroyed.
00:44:08Okay.
00:44:09Okay.
00:44:10Okay.
00:44:12What? So, Mancini name is what you're concerned about. Is that it?
00:44:16Hey, hey, hey. You haven't answered me.
00:44:23Thank you all so much for coming today to celebrate me.
00:44:27But I do have some rather important information to share with you all.
00:44:32I have just discovered Luca Mancini in a rather compromising position with his brother's pregnant widow.
00:44:42In my bedroom.
00:44:52Can you let go?
00:44:56They're coming.
00:44:57Wait.
00:45:01Here, I got this one.
00:45:02Wait, stop!
00:45:03Watch! They're right there!
00:45:04If we walk through that door, we'll walk right into their trap.
00:45:07Okay, then what's your brilliant idea?
00:45:09Yes, ma'am.
00:45:10Um, we...
00:45:12Let's go through the window. We can climb down.
00:45:14Whoa, whoa, whoa, no. I'm afraid of heights.
00:45:17You're what?
00:45:20I'm sorry. I just didn't realize the great Luca Mancini had fears like the rest of us.
00:45:25Yeah, you know, that's one of my fears, and I don't advertise it, so deal with it.
00:45:31What the hell's do?
00:45:34Lucy, who are these cheaters you promised to expose?
00:45:37Keep it down, you idiot. You don't want to wake them.
00:45:40I mean, we don't want to alert them to give them a chance to escape.
00:45:45Here comes, let's go.
00:45:48Okay.
00:45:49Hurry, hurry.
00:45:50No, no, no, no. Don't run. We have to catch them in the act first.
00:45:56Are you insane? Your house is on fire.
00:45:59Who cares about the gossip? Let's get out of here.
00:46:01No, no, no, no. I'll help everyone leave afterwards, but first let's get a look at them, come on.
00:46:05I'll get them, come on.
00:46:27Oh, hi.
00:46:28What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:46:31I am so sorry. It was an accident, please.
00:46:35Okay?
00:46:36Yeah.
00:46:38The staff prepared everything for you, and there's hot water in there.
00:46:46And what about you?
00:46:48We'll just be out here, taking guard for you. Now go on, it's warm.
00:46:53Thanks.
00:46:54Thanks.
00:47:24Damn it.
00:47:27What is it?
00:47:29Uh, Miss Rossi is demanding to see you, sir.
00:47:32She's quite insistent.
00:47:34Okay, let her run.
00:47:39You set off the fire alarms and completely scared away my guests!
00:47:42You ruined my birthday celebration!
00:47:54Hey!
00:47:55You will take full responsibility for what you did.
00:47:58The drugging, the setup, all of it.
00:48:01And if you ever threaten Ava again, directly or indirectly,
00:48:06I will end the Rossi family from this city permanently.
00:48:10You're a monster.
00:48:12That's her in there, isn't it? Ava?
00:48:14Your dead brother's wife?
00:48:16How dare you?
00:48:18Get your hands off of me!
00:48:19Do you know who I am?
00:48:23Oh.
00:48:36Luca?
00:48:48Luca!
00:48:49It's me, Michael.
00:48:50Luca!
00:48:51I'm your brother's wife!
00:48:52So, so this isn't a dream.
00:48:53I, um...
00:48:54Ava...
00:48:55I've had feelings for you for so long.
00:48:56And I've tried to keep them a secret, but I...
00:48:57I can't keep them any longer.
00:48:58I can't keep them any longer.
00:48:59And now you know my two secrets and by family code, I have to silence the person who discovers my weaknesses.
00:49:08Luca, I'm your brother's wife.
00:49:09I'm your brother's wife.
00:49:10So, so this isn't a dream.
00:49:11I, um...
00:49:12I've had feelings for you for so long.
00:49:13And I've tried to keep them a secret, but I...
00:49:14I can't keep them any longer.
00:49:15And now you know my two secrets and by family code, I have to silence the person who discovers my weaknesses.
00:49:25Luca, let me go.
00:49:28No, no, no.
00:49:29But I can't silence you because, Ava, I have fallen in love with you.
00:49:33Oh, God.
00:49:34That's not funny.
00:49:36Look, I've never been more serious.
00:49:40Look, Ava, every time I come around to you, I...
00:49:44I feel myself slipping.
00:49:48And my feelings have crossed that line months ago.
00:49:53Stop, stop.
00:49:54Just stop.
00:49:55I'll forget this ever happened.
00:49:57No, Ava.
00:49:59I want to take care of you.
00:50:01And the baby.
00:50:03For the rest of my life.
00:50:04Luca, what's going on?
00:50:21Why isn't Ava home?
00:50:23What's going on here?
00:50:26Mom, I...
00:50:27Nothing.
00:50:28My clothes were dirty, so Luca prepared for me a shower and clean clothes.
00:50:34Oh, thank goodness.
00:50:36The last thing we need is for you to catch pneumonia.
00:50:39Yeah, I know.
00:50:40Ava, I think that we should probably...
00:50:43Luca, it's almost Marco's birthday.
00:50:48His visit is great.
00:50:52He is your brother and my husband.
00:50:55And we don't want to betray his memory.
00:50:58Oh, you poor thing.
00:50:59You must be utterly exhausted.
00:51:02Let's get you home.
00:51:04These Rossi's are nothing but trouble.
00:51:06We need to accelerate our plans against them.
00:51:09Here.
00:51:19Marco.
00:51:23I miss you.
00:51:27I feel so lost without you.
00:51:34Would you hate me?
00:51:35If you knew I had feelings for your brother.
00:51:42Ava, are you in there?
00:51:52Ava, are you there?
00:51:54I meant everything that I said today.
00:51:58And I want to help you get through this, and I want to protect you.
00:52:01Marco and mom, they would both understand.
00:52:08Ava, I love you.
00:52:24I understand how difficult this is.
00:52:26And your loyalty for Marco, and your concern for my mother, that is the compassion that...
00:52:33That's the reason I fell in love with you.
00:52:39There's $30 million on this credit card.
00:52:43And the pin number is your birthday.
00:52:44I've been through epsom flows, and this goodbye felt like the end.
00:52:50Can't deny, I can't pretend.
00:52:53That this fire burns again.
00:52:57Illuminating rain.
00:53:00I feel alive.
00:53:02One more time, our worlds collide.
00:53:05Watch them circling in the sky.
00:53:08We are magnetic sides.
00:53:11I'm falling asleep.
00:53:13Wait for me.
00:53:14No one loves me like you do.
00:53:17Like that you and I were through.
00:53:25The baby's development is right on track.
00:53:29Perfect, actually.
00:53:32Has your husband been doing those tactile bonding exercises I showed you?
00:53:37Doctor.
00:53:38Uh, actually, he's not exactly right.
00:53:41Oh, no need to be embarrassed.
00:53:42The way that man looks at you is something special.
00:53:50Now face each other.
00:53:53Helena, take her hands.
00:53:55Deep inhale.
00:53:57And lean into each other.
00:53:59Using each other's weight to support you.
00:54:04Come up.
00:54:09On the exhale, do a gentle squat.
00:54:15And then share and embrace.
00:54:18Who exactly are you welcoming home, dear daughter-in-law?
00:54:32I was just talking nonsense.
00:54:36Miss.
00:54:37Miss.
00:54:45All again.
00:54:51Miss.
00:54:52Flowers from Mr. Mancini.
00:55:27I wonder if he's doing well out there.
00:55:44Hello?
00:55:45Ava?
00:55:46I'm outside at the gate.
00:55:49Security won't let me in.
00:55:50Mom, what are you doing here?
00:55:57I've missed you terribly, sweetheart.
00:55:59I just wanted to check on you and the baby.
00:56:05Look.
00:56:07Fresh oranges.
00:56:08Just pick today.
00:56:10You need the vitamin C for the baby's development.
00:56:13I'm on a very carefully monitored diet.
00:56:16You always did a trip.
00:56:20Look.
00:56:22I know that you haven't forgiven me.
00:56:24But you have to understand.
00:56:26Derek and Sarah, I mean, they would have thrown me out on the street if I didn't go along with them.
00:56:33I mean, what choice did I have?
00:56:34That's not rehash the past.
00:56:38Of course.
00:56:40I picked these up for my grandchild.
00:56:43Aren't they precious?
00:56:46That baby that you're carrying is my family, too.
00:56:49I love them so much already.
00:56:53Look, I stood up for you to Derek.
00:56:56And he threw me out.
00:56:58I had absolutely nothing left.
00:57:09This card contains all the money I've saved.
00:57:12It's yours.
00:57:13But you have to promise me that you'll use it for yourself.
00:57:16Not a penny goes to Derek.
00:57:18Okay.
00:57:18I swear it.
00:57:20Not a cent to him.
00:57:22How much money are we talking about?
00:57:24$10,000.
00:57:27$10,000?
00:57:29That's it.
00:57:31You're carrying the Mancini heir and all they've given you is $10,000.
00:57:35That is my personal savings.
00:57:38I haven't asked the Mancini's for a cent.
00:57:40Okay, this is completely unacceptable.
00:57:43Everyone in this city knows that the Mancini's are loaded beyond belief.
00:57:49Come on.
00:57:50You need to milk this situation for all it's worth.
00:57:59Honey, I'm...
00:58:01I'm only thinking about your future and your security.
00:58:06I mean, what happens if they throw you out once the baby arrives?
00:58:10I didn't marry into the Mancini family for their fortune.
00:58:14And you mention their money one more time, you'll never see me again.
00:58:20Understand?
00:58:20I understand, sweetheart.
00:58:23Mom won't say another word about it.
00:58:30$10,000?
00:58:31That's it?
00:58:33That's pocket change for them?
00:58:34She must be holding down on us.
00:58:38That ungrateful little brat.
00:58:41I tried everything.
00:58:43I couldn't squeeze another penny out of her.
00:58:45She's swimming in Mancini money and we're here struggling.
00:58:49After what they did to my leg, I should be getting millions.
00:58:52Yes, a few million.
00:58:54It's just the beginning.
00:58:56We've been thinking too small.
00:58:57I have good reason to believe that we have a common enemy.
00:59:12I think we should work together.
00:59:18Miss Mancini has been sleeping well, sir.
00:59:21She got the prenatal vitamins you sent her
00:59:23and they effectively reduced her morning sickness.
00:59:26And this morning, she ate half a slice of French toast,
00:59:30a half portion of scrambled eggs,
00:59:32two cherry tomatoes, and a glass of milk.
00:59:35And after some gentle persuasion from your mother,
00:59:37she also had a piece of steak for the iron content.
00:59:41Looks good to hear that she's eating healthy.
00:59:42And then she finally attended the prenatal concert we arranged.
00:59:46And afterwards, she spoke with one of the pianists
00:59:49about the compositions.
00:59:51Is it man or woman?
00:59:52Sir, per your instructions, they were all talented women.
00:59:54No exceptions.
00:59:57And she actually mentioned you today.
00:59:59While making hot chocolate,
01:00:00she said to the chef,
01:00:02it's never quite as good as Luca's.
01:00:05She always knows what to say.
01:00:08I'll make her a batch right now
01:00:10and we can have it delivered.
01:00:11Great.
01:00:12I'll arrange a private courier right away.
01:00:14Luca is almost finished with his business.
01:00:22Hopefully, he will make it home in time for the birth.
01:00:24Mrs. Mancini,
01:00:27it's terrible news.
01:00:29Luca's jet has been destroyed in the flight.
01:00:30He...
01:00:31He's missing.
01:00:32What?
01:00:33I want every detail immediately.
01:00:35Yes, ma'am.
01:00:38Eva, breathe.
01:00:39Breathe.
01:00:40Don't panic.
01:00:41Don't panic.
01:00:42Luca has always been lucky.
01:00:43He's gonna be fine.
01:00:45He will.
01:00:45Hello?
01:00:51I have Luca Mancini.
01:00:53Twenty million dollars cash for his safe return.
01:00:56No police,
01:00:57no family,
01:00:58no security team.
01:01:00You come alone,
01:01:01or he dies.
01:01:02You have 24 hours.
01:01:04Oh, Eva,
01:01:09are you okay?
01:01:10Who was that?
01:01:11It's nothing, nothing.
01:01:13I'm just dizzy.
01:01:16The baby.
01:01:17So I'm gonna go upstairs and lie down.
01:01:19Oh.
01:01:21Okay.
01:01:23Here.
01:01:24Money first.
01:01:49Ow!
01:01:53You okay?
01:01:54Derrick.
01:01:58Where's Luca?
01:02:00Where's Luca?
01:02:01Don't worry about Luca.
01:02:03Worry about yourself.
01:02:22Yeah.
01:02:23With her as our bargaining chip,
01:02:25we can demand
01:02:26a hundred million dollars
01:02:28from the mancines.
01:02:31Easy.
01:02:32Mom.
01:02:33Mom,
01:02:34why are you doing this?
01:02:35Poor family.
01:02:36Why have you always treated me so terribly?
01:02:38Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
01:02:41Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
01:02:42Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
01:02:43Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
01:02:43You are so pathetic!
01:02:47You just don't get it, do you?
01:02:49You're just some brat that mom found on the street that she brought home to be our live-in servant.
01:02:55You're an orphan!
01:02:58Not even your birth mother wanted you.
01:03:02Yeah, we brought you in.
01:03:04We fed you.
01:03:05We clothed you.
01:03:07And in return, your life belongs to us.
01:03:11Oh, and by the way, since we're being honest with each other right now, my whole leg injury, it's kind of my fault.
01:03:20But it was a great excuse to get you to basically give up your life and be our slave all these years.
01:03:30You know what?
01:03:34Even though you're nothing but a bunch of orphan trash, you're actually very beautiful.
01:03:40So since we're giving up this whole brother-sister roleplay thing, I don't want to do something that I've wanted to do for a very, very long time.
01:03:55Stop, Doug! You're sick!
01:03:57Now let's just keep that pretty little mouth of yours quiet, shall we?
01:04:09Fuck!
01:04:10Fuck!
01:04:11Fuck!
01:04:12You fucking bitch.
01:04:13Bitch!
01:04:36Okay, you're alive!
01:04:37You're okay!
01:04:43Stop! Stop!
01:04:46My plane blew up!
01:04:47Ava gets kidnapped!
01:04:48This isn't a coincidence!
01:04:49Who are you looking for?
01:04:51Answer me!
01:04:56Hey, make them stop!
01:04:58He's your brother!
01:05:00They'll kill him!
01:05:01You just told me I'm an orphan,
01:05:03so he's not really my little brother.
01:05:05You better tell me who your accomplices are,
01:05:07or he stops breathing.
01:05:09You two should be ashamed of yourselves.
01:05:11Yeah, I see the way that you look at each other.
01:05:14He's your dead husband's brother!
01:05:17You're a betrayer, Marco, and his mother!
01:05:22Are you alright?
01:05:23Hey, hey, hey, hey!
01:05:24You okay?
01:05:25Yeah, yeah.
01:05:27Your mom has been so kind to me,
01:05:29and I dragged her into this mess.
01:05:31It's all my fault.
01:05:33Yeah, your mother-in-law took you in.
01:05:35She treated you like a daughter.
01:05:37She gave you everything that you could ever want,
01:05:39and this is how you repay her?
01:05:41By falling for her younger son?
01:05:43Have you already forgotten Marco is his grave?
01:05:47What is wrong with you?
01:05:52I want her as my daughter-in-law.
01:05:55First my eldest son's wife,
01:05:57and now my youngest.
01:06:01Objective then,
01:06:02and you'll lose your tongue.
01:06:04You couldn't have Luca,
01:06:17so you decided to try and kill him?
01:06:21Good thing he changed his flight plan at the last minute, hmm?
01:06:26Cross the Mancini's,
01:06:28and you cease to exist.
01:06:30Release me!
01:06:31My father will burn your empire to the ground.
01:06:37Don't you wonder why my son was gone all that time?
01:06:43Your family's power...
01:06:47already lost.
01:07:00You two have risked everything to be together.
01:07:05I can see that Luca's devotion is absolute.
01:07:12You have endured far too much pain.
01:07:16It's time to let him take care of you.
01:07:18But...
01:07:20Marco...
01:07:21I made a promise.
01:07:23And Marco...
01:07:25would want your happiness...
01:07:28above all else.
01:07:30He will rest easier.
01:07:33Knowing that we are protecting you...
01:07:36and your child.
01:07:41From this moment forward,
01:07:43I swear to you, nobody will ever look at me.
01:07:50Luca, you're bleeding.
01:07:51You're bleeding.
01:07:55You gotta keep this clean.
01:07:57Yeah.
01:07:58Infections can get nasty.
01:08:01Okay.
01:08:03So you're saying that you care about me then?
01:08:06Shut up.
01:08:08Of course I care.
01:08:13Alright.
01:08:15Wait.
01:08:16Okay.
01:08:17I think he likes you.
01:08:18Yeah?
01:08:19Mm-hmm.
01:08:21Mmm.
01:08:22Hey...
01:08:23I'm gonna be near, or...
01:08:24You're gonna be near, or...
01:08:25Let's just go.
01:08:26Wait.
01:08:27See you.
01:08:28Okay.
01:08:29Oh.
01:08:31I think he likes you.
01:08:32Yeah?
01:08:33Mm-hmm.
01:08:34I think he likes you.
01:08:43Yeah?
01:08:48Ava, I will take care of you and the baby.
01:08:53Just like my brother would have.
01:08:55I brought some fruit for you and the...
01:08:57Luca!
01:09:01She's pregnant.
01:09:03Be gentle with her.
01:09:04I think maybe you should get some less.
01:09:10Okay.
01:09:14Oh, wait.
01:09:18What is it?
01:09:19I think I'm in labor.
01:09:21Oh, my God.
01:09:22Come on.
01:09:24Take easy sleep.
01:09:30What is taking so long?
01:09:32Is something wrong?
01:09:33She's gone into labor early.
01:09:35Have you two been intimate recently?
01:09:37Well, we didn't exactly.
01:09:40I mean, not completely.
01:09:42I warned you to be careful with her.
01:09:44What can we do now?
01:09:46The medication isn't working as we'd hoped.
01:09:49There's another approach we could try.
01:09:52Yes, yes.
01:09:53We'll do anything, Mon.
01:09:54It's no object.
01:09:54Just help her.
01:09:55Some intimate touches can help her relax and feel better.
01:10:04Right here.
01:10:07Right here.
01:10:08Yes.
01:10:12Mom, I can't just whip it out.
01:10:15I can't do it.
01:10:15I can't do it.
01:10:16I can't do it.
01:10:16I can't do it.
01:10:17I can't do it.
01:10:17I can't do it.
01:10:18I can't do it.
01:10:18I can't do it.
01:10:19I can't do it.
01:10:19I can't do it.
01:10:20I can't do it.
01:10:20I can't do it.
01:10:21I can't do it.
01:10:21I can't do it.
01:10:22I can't do it.
01:10:22I can't do it.
01:10:23I can't do it.
01:10:23I hope things are going smoothly in there.
01:10:50They've never been together.
01:10:53Then how could she be?
01:10:55The child is my late son's.
01:10:59Luca's brother.
01:11:01You okay?
01:11:03Doctor, please.
01:11:04Doctor, please.
01:11:05Three, one, two, three, push.
01:11:08One, two, three, push.
01:11:10One, two, three, push.
01:11:12One, two, three, push.
01:11:14One, two, three, push.
01:11:16One, two, three, push.
01:11:18One, two, three, push.
01:11:20One, two, three, push.
01:11:21One, two, three, push.
01:11:22One, two, three, push.
01:11:23Push, push, push.
01:11:24Push.
01:11:25It's your baby.
01:11:27Hey.
01:11:28Hi.
01:11:29How you feeling?
01:11:30Good.
01:11:31You want something to eat?
01:11:32I'm okay.
01:11:33Okay.
01:11:34I thought this hospital was the best that money can buy.
01:11:38I guess I was misinformed.
01:11:39Luca.
01:11:40They're doing the best they can.
01:11:41That's not terrorizing stuff.
01:11:43Look.
01:11:44I just don't.
01:11:45You want something to eat?
01:11:47I'm okay.
01:11:48Okay.
01:11:53I thought this hospital was the best that money can buy.
01:11:56I guess I was misinformed.
01:11:59Look, they're doing the best they can.
01:12:02That's not terrorizing stuff.
01:12:06Look, I just don't want to see you in any more pain.
01:12:11You would tear me apart.
01:12:15Luca, remember to control yourself, son.
01:12:25Let her recover first.
01:12:32There you go.
01:12:34Just like now.
01:12:36Hi.
01:12:37And have you decided what to name this little prince?
01:12:42Marco.
01:12:42Marco.
01:12:45Marco.
01:12:45I want to name him Marco.
01:12:47I want to name him Marco.
01:12:47Look, little one.
01:13:10It's your daddy.
01:13:14Your real daddy.
01:13:21It's remarkable how much he looks like.
01:13:23Marco.
01:13:25I thought you had all the answers.
01:13:29And that you handle everything.
01:13:30And I promise to protect mom, the business, and your family.
01:13:41Our family.
01:13:45You know, Marco used to say that if you wanted to think about somebody, you would watch the dandelion.
01:13:52And if the seeds blew out easily, then they were thinking of you, too.
01:13:55I hear you on the radio.
01:14:03On the radio.
01:14:04On the radio.
01:14:04Miss, Mrs. Mancini's wedding gifts, the finest villas, the Mancini family jewelry, and finally, 30% ownership of Mancini group house.
01:14:21Effective immediately.
01:14:22This ring has been in the Mancini family for seven generations, passed from mother to god-her-in-law.
01:14:27Thank you, Monica.
01:14:57Look, a perfect fit.
01:15:15Now, I need the two of you to focus on your top priority.
01:15:22Um, top priority?
01:15:23Giving me a granddaughter to play with little Marco Jr.
01:15:29Mom, we're at a church.
01:15:32And there are witnesses.
