00:03:22a mutual decision

00:03:24I think he's arrogant

00:03:26cold

00:03:27thinks he's untouchable

00:03:30he just seems isolated

00:09:26why not just give miss Keaton a lift?

00:09:31why not just give miss Keaton a lift?

00:09:33and have the whole school go crazy

00:09:35she's new

00:09:36everybody's already talking

00:09:38so you're worried about her?

00:09:40you're overthinking

00:09:41I just don't like drama

00:09:49asshole

00:09:50who?

00:09:51morning class

00:09:53morning class

00:09:54back to Golding

00:09:56remind me what he's saying through Lord of the Flies

00:10:04Mr Kenwood

00:10:05care to share what you found so amusing?

00:10:08not particularly

00:10:09oh

00:10:10I insist

00:10:11you seem very entertained by Golding

00:10:13I'm not entertained by Golding

00:10:14I'm not entertained by Golding sir

00:10:16on the contrary

00:10:18I think his ending is

00:10:20weak

00:10:22wait wait

00:10:23do I actually read it?

00:10:24quiet

00:10:25that's an interesting take

00:10:28explain

00:10:30he had the set up for something brutal

00:10:34something honest

00:10:36in the end

00:10:37he backed out

00:10:38he could have left the boys on the island

00:10:40forced them to confront the collapse of vulnerability

00:10:42let them choose survival

00:10:45or death

00:10:46but instead

00:10:47he gave them a rescue boat

00:10:49slapped a happily ever after on a book about savagery

00:10:52it's a waste

00:10:56don't you think?

00:10:57I'm delightfully surprised Charles

00:10:59didn't think you had such strong literary opinions

00:11:02I'm always a model student sir

00:11:04let's not get ahead of ourselves

00:11:06so

00:11:09a critique of Golding's mercy

00:11:12anyone disagree?

00:11:28I think Golding knew exactly what he was doing by ending the book that way

00:11:32it's not mercy

00:11:33it's irony

00:11:34how so?

00:11:38the rescue isn't a happy ending

00:11:40you don't just walk back into society and forget you're a monster

00:11:43Golding didn't save them

00:11:45he left us with the discomfort of pretending they could be saved

00:11:47that's an interesting take Miss Keeter

00:11:50you still think it's a harsh critique?

00:11:52in some ways

00:11:53but not harsh enough

00:11:55yes it's a critique of toxic masculinity

00:11:59but still Golding sympathized with them

00:12:02and the civilized world?

00:12:04toxic

00:12:05violent

00:12:06he didn't call that out nearly as much

00:12:07so yeah

00:12:08I don't think Golding pushed far enough

00:12:09but I think it's unfair to call it a happy ending

00:12:11thank you Miss Keaton

00:12:12well said

00:12:13anyone else?

00:12:14both opinions are valid

00:12:15okay

00:12:16that's kind of epic

00:12:17and let's not forget

00:12:18golding faced major backlash when he first published the book

00:12:20good literature will always divide opinion

00:12:23what's happening to me?

00:12:25okay what is going on? why is everyone staring at me?

00:12:28well you're new and apparently had a thing with Charles

00:16:29Can you get off me first?

00:16:40You're welcome.

00:16:42I didn't say thank you.

00:16:44I figured saving your life might only be basic manners.

00:16:46Someone just dumped swamp water on me.

00:16:49Excuse me if I'm not feeling very polite.

00:16:51You smell like a biology experiment.

00:16:53Wow.

00:16:55You should try falling out of a window into someone's arms and getting insulted for it.

00:16:59I wouldn't recommend it. You're heavier than you look.

00:17:03I hope you pull your shoulder.

00:17:10Are you okay?

00:17:12No, but I will be.

00:17:16Someone did this on purpose.

00:17:17What do you think, golden boy?

00:17:20Don't worry, I can handle it.

00:17:21You shouldn't have to.

00:17:25I'm...

00:17:27Sorry.

00:17:34Sorry.

00:17:35Did you just apologize to me?

00:17:42Don't get used to it.

00:17:43I wouldn't dream of it.

00:17:47Alice?

00:17:48Over here.

00:17:50God.

00:17:52You okay?

00:17:55Why are you drenched?

00:17:56Yeah.

00:17:57I just...

00:17:58Took a weird shower.

00:17:59Tap exploded.

00:18:02Come on.

00:18:03Let's get you home.

00:18:14Alice Keaton, right?

00:18:15I heard she staged the whole thing for attention.

00:18:19I know how this place works. If you don't do anything about it, it's only going to get worse.

00:18:36I'll look into it.

00:18:37Charles?

00:18:38Good on you. How many here would speak up?

00:18:39I can't believe someone actually locked you in. That's insane.

00:18:40Where the hell was the school when this was happening?

00:18:41Busy protecting their golden boys and trust flags.

00:18:42Well, for...

00:18:43I know how this place works. If you don't do anything about it, it's only going to get worse.

00:18:49I'll look into it.

00:18:52Charles?

00:18:54Good on you. How many here would speak up?

00:19:02I can't believe someone actually locked you in. That's insane.

00:19:05Where the hell was the school when this was happening?

00:19:07Busy protecting their golden boys and trust flags.

00:19:10Well, for what it's worth, I heard Charles looked pretty freaked out when he ran out last night.

00:19:16Please, he just didn't want a lawsuit.

00:19:35Being a scholarship student has its perks.

00:19:37Like saving a fortune on tuition and getting into schools that normally wouldn't even let you pass the gates.

00:19:45Hey! We miss you in Paris!

00:19:47We miss you in Paris!

00:19:48Though there are enough Americans to remind us of you.

00:19:51But sometimes, being here means standing behind.

00:19:55And watching Ashford elites go on a two-week enrichment program you can never afford.

00:20:00Have fun.

00:20:01Bring me something overpriced and unnecessary.

00:20:10The trip cost 20 grand in pounds, which translates to mom's salary for half a year.

00:20:15So, yeah, I didn't go.

00:20:18I didn't go.

00:20:22Uh, what are you doing here? Do you not believe in shirts?

00:30:43Um, who are you?

00:30:52What are you doing here?

00:30:58Well, your parents said you were still at home.

00:31:01Thank God you skipped that boring grand tour.

00:31:03Who needs Italy and France again, right?

00:31:05When did you get back?

00:31:07Last night, from Zurich.

00:31:09You didn't answer my messages.

00:31:12I missed you.

00:31:14Anyway, thought I'd come surprise you.

00:31:16Apparently, I'm transferring to Ashford.

00:31:19Your parents were so thrilled.

00:31:21They didn't tell me about this.

00:31:22I wanted to deliver the happy news myself.

00:31:24They said it'd be lovely for us to reconnect.

00:31:28You know, considering the engagement and all.

00:31:31Engagement?

00:31:33Oh, did no one tell you?

00:31:36He's promised.

00:31:38Old money stuff, very retro.

00:31:40I didn't agree to that.

00:31:41You didn't have to.

00:31:42It's never up to us.

00:31:45Where did you find this little toy?

00:31:47Serena?

00:31:48I didn't hear you, you know.

00:31:50Oh, an American.

00:31:52How refreshing.

00:31:58Goodbye.

00:31:59Your little toy has quite the tempo.

00:32:00Serena, can you please?

00:32:01Wait.

00:32:02Wait.

00:32:03Wait.

00:32:04Wait.

00:32:05Wait.

00:32:06Wait.

00:32:07Where are you going?

00:32:08Where are you going?

00:32:09You still owe me breakfast.

00:32:10You only paid for dinner.

00:32:11I have homework.

00:32:12Goodbye.

00:32:13Your little toy has quite the tempo.

00:32:14Serena, can you please just stop?

00:32:15What?

00:32:16What?

00:32:17Teasing the help.

00:32:18That's her.

00:32:19That's her.

00:32:20That's her.

00:32:21That's the one from Kenwood's house.

00:32:22Was she like, the maid or something?

00:32:23Was she like, the maid or something?

00:32:24Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

00:32:30Oh my god.

00:32:43Oh my god, what's wrong with people?

00:33:01They're saying you live with Charles.

00:33:03Oh, and Serena?

00:33:05What about her?

00:33:06Well, apparently she told everyone you were caught sneaking into his room.

00:33:09Of course she did.

00:33:13Careful, Alice. You're starting to look desperate.

00:33:28Come to the music room. Urgent.

00:33:43I just remembered I need to check something. You guys go ahead.

00:33:47Yeah, okay.

00:33:48Hello! Is someone there? Seriously! This is getting old!

00:34:02Wait. Music room? What?

00:34:16James?

00:34:17Was anybody in here earlier?

00:34:19Just Miss Serena. Said she was waiting for you.

00:34:21Sir?

00:34:23Sir?

00:34:24Sir, it's raining!

00:34:25Come on, Alice. You're fine.

00:34:38You're not that girl again.

00:34:40Wait. Can you remind me one more time?

00:34:51Okay. Rooks move in straight lines.

00:34:54Yeah.

00:34:55Bishops move diagonally.

00:34:57And knights...

00:34:58The knight's the weird one.

00:34:59Rooks.

00:35:00Rooks.

00:35:01Straight lines.

00:35:02Bishops.

00:35:03Diagonally.

00:35:04Hello?

00:35:05The text?

00:35:08He's okay.

00:35:25Are you okay?

00:35:29Are you okay?

00:35:33Are you okay? Are you hurt?

00:35:36I'm okay. I saw the text and I thought...

00:35:40I didn't see the message. Serena took my phone. I didn't know. I'm sorry.

00:35:45I'm okay. You're going to catch a cold.

00:35:49You're freezing.

00:35:50You didn't have to come.

00:35:54Don't tell me what I have to do.

00:36:03That wasn't a mistake, if that's what you're about to say.

00:36:23I wasn't going to.

00:36:33I'm really bad at this, you know.

00:36:40What? Kissing?

00:36:41Hiding feelings.

00:36:42I don't like that.

00:37:03Dump those Ewok pyjamas.

00:37:07Oh, you wish.

00:37:10Seriously, it's a cock block.

00:37:13You kissed me.

00:37:16That's basically consent to everything.

00:37:24Dangerous words, Keaton. I might hold you to that.

00:37:27You'll be working in pairs on your comparative essays.

00:37:39The list is on the board.

00:37:43One, two, three, four.

00:37:48Are you okay?

00:37:49Fly me to outer space.

00:37:53That's where I'll see your face.

00:37:58And have you with me.

00:38:04It may seem dark.

00:38:08But you always like my spark.

00:38:13In my heart.

00:38:18You're welcome.

00:38:19They're either enemies or secretly married.

00:38:27Honestly?

00:38:28Both.

00:38:29I was sure I'd never find someone to make my head spin around.

00:38:35No one's ever gonna be the thing I need.

00:38:37They all just let me down.

00:38:39But baby, you saved me.

00:38:42Time brand new.

00:38:45Everything's so different now.

00:38:48So, the night goes in an L shape, right?

00:38:53Why is that the only one you remember?

00:38:54Because it's weird.

00:38:57And I like weird.

00:39:06Check.

00:39:12You're cheating.

00:39:14I'm winning.

00:39:15There's a difference.

00:39:16You are very distracting.

00:39:18And you like it.

00:39:20I will be the four young day.

00:39:24I'll be the new dark and space.

00:39:28Hold you in my arms.

00:39:30Charles.

00:39:32We need to talk.

00:39:40I expected poor judgment.

00:39:43But this in my house?

00:39:45It isn't what it looks like.

00:39:46No?

00:39:46Well, kissing a servant's daughter in the family library.

00:39:51Enlighten me then, Charles.

00:39:53We came back tonight after speaking with Serena.

00:39:56Imagine our surprise walking in on this.

00:39:59She isn't just...

00:40:01You have no right to barge in.

00:40:03On my property.

00:40:07I care about her.

00:40:09I'm not ashamed of that.

00:40:10That's enough.

00:40:14Why do you care?

00:40:15We're protecting our son's future.

00:40:18And our name.

00:40:20You think this protects me?

00:40:22You think she does not belong in your world.

00:40:28Then maybe I don't either.

00:40:31You're ready to give up everything for a girl you barely know?

00:40:38Yes.

00:40:39Then are you sure she's ready?

00:40:43I'm asking you.

00:40:50Do you think she's ready to lose everything, regardless of how little that is, just to be with you?

00:40:57What are you talking about?

00:40:58You left us no choice, son.

00:41:00You shouldn't disobey your father.

00:41:04Pelton.

00:41:06It's Frederick Kenwood.

00:41:07Ah, Mr. Kenwood.

00:41:09How can I help?

00:41:10If a scholarship student were to violate our behavioural code in a public setting with photographic evidence, would that warrant a review?

00:41:20Yes, sir.

00:41:23So, answer me again.

00:41:27Do you think she's ready to lose everything just to be with you?

00:41:30Charles, what happened? Did your parents say something? Are they mad? Is everything okay?

00:41:47Pack your things.

00:41:49You can't stay here anymore.

00:41:50What?

00:41:53My parents fired your mother.

00:41:55She's leaving.

00:41:57So are you.

00:41:57Wait, what? Why?

00:41:59Is it because of us?

00:42:00We can fix this. I'll get a job.

00:42:02Stop, stop it. You don't get it.

00:42:05If I don't walk away from this, they'll cut me off.

00:42:08Okay?

00:42:09No card.

00:42:10No trust.

00:42:11No support.

00:42:13Nothing.

00:42:14Then...

00:42:14Then we'll figure it out.

00:42:16We don't need all that.

00:42:18We can...

00:42:19Do you really think I'm going to live like that?

00:42:24So that's what this was.

00:42:26Just fun until it got inconvenient.

00:42:30What did they promise you?

00:42:35Nothing.

00:42:37They just reminded me of what's real.

00:42:44Charles, I'm not stupid.

00:42:46You don't just turn into a cold stranger because of one conversation.

00:42:49What did they threaten you with?

00:42:56What did they threaten you with?

00:42:58This is the difference between me and you.

00:43:00What?

00:43:01You think you know me.

00:43:03Or what I have.

00:43:05You don't, Alice.

00:43:06You're still lying.

00:43:08I'm not, Alice.

00:43:10Look around you.

00:43:11This mansion you thought was a museum.

00:43:14It's my house.

00:43:17My world.

00:43:18I was bored into this.

00:43:20I am not choosing between this

00:43:22and something I picked up for a moment of fun.

00:43:27Don't do this, Charles.

00:43:32You don't mean it.

00:43:33It was fine.

00:43:35But you?

00:43:37You don't compare to what I own.

00:43:41I'll survive the loss.

00:43:45Right.

00:43:47I should have known.

00:43:48Guys like you don't end up with girls like me.

00:43:55You play with them, then you throw them away.

00:43:59Go to sleep, Alice.

00:44:00This fall is a little more than I expected.

00:44:18In so deep, I can barely see myself.

00:44:22Yeah, around me feels so heavy, but depleted.

00:44:30But I find this place to test myself.

00:44:42Oops.

00:44:43Oh, sorry.

00:45:01Didn't see that.

00:45:03Then again, nobody does.

00:45:05Move, please.

00:45:07Hmm.

00:45:08Try begging.

00:45:13You know what?

00:45:15Keep it.

00:45:21Poor thing.

00:45:22So dramatic.

00:45:25Don't.

00:45:26Excuse me?

00:45:27I warned you.

00:45:29Walk away, Serena.

00:45:30Oh.

00:45:43Last week's group assignments were mostly forgettable.

00:45:54But one pair surprised me.

00:45:56In a good way.

00:45:58Charles Kenwood and Alice Keaton.

00:46:01Would you mind giving us her short summary?

00:46:04She loves the sound of her own voice.

00:46:06Better have it.

00:46:06I couldn't stay.

00:46:08I couldn't wait.

00:46:09I thought that you should know that I would have.

00:46:14Our essay explored what happens when two fundamentally different voices meet.

00:46:20Like logic and chaos.

00:46:21Or silence and noise.

00:46:24Different worlds.

00:46:25Different rules.

00:46:28At first glance, they clash.

00:46:31But what makes the story interesting is what happens next.

00:46:34Confusion.

00:46:35Curiosity.

00:46:36But in the end, some stories aren't about staying.

00:46:39And yes, there is no such thing as a happy ending.

00:46:51And yes, there is no such thing as a happy ending.

00:46:55Is she still talking about the essay?

00:47:01Miss Keaton?

00:47:04Dramatic as always.

00:47:05Alright.

00:47:06Thank you, Alice.

00:47:07That was...

00:47:08Laid.

00:47:11Are you okay?

00:47:12A reminder.

00:47:13That good literature

00:47:14always stirs something.

00:47:16Hello?

00:47:20Hi, here's Alice Keaton.

00:47:21This is We're More Press.

00:47:22We've been following your work.

00:47:24We'd like to offer you a long-term publishing contract.

00:47:26Name your price.

00:47:27We'll...

00:47:27We'll make it work.

00:47:28Sorry, what?

00:47:33That's...

00:47:34kind of...

00:47:35insane.

00:47:36Who's behind this?

00:47:37Your sponsor wishes to remain anonymous.

00:47:40Can...

00:47:41Can I meet them?

00:47:44I want to.

00:47:45Please.

00:47:47Or at least tell me a name.

00:47:52Sorry, they wish to stay in office.

00:47:53So they're only interested in words, not the person.

00:47:56I'd really like to meet them.

00:47:57I'm sorry, Miss Keaton.

00:47:58They were very good.

00:47:59I think the most generous offer we've ever given a Disney World Series.

00:48:03I see.

00:48:04Congratulations again.

00:48:09You got the interview!

00:48:10I think it's just an interview.

00:48:11I haven't gotten in yet.

00:48:13Still, Alice Keaton at Oxford.

00:48:15That's iconic.

00:48:25You okay?

00:48:27Yeah.

00:48:29I'm so excited!

00:48:40It's done, Mr. Kenwood.

00:48:44Miss Keaton signed the contract.

00:48:47Good.

00:48:48It's a generous deal.

00:48:50You sure you don't want it to know?

00:48:52No.

00:48:54No, it's better if I stay out of her life.

00:48:56I will be there in your darkest days.

00:49:05Congratulations, Alice Keaton.

00:49:08Go live the life you were always meant to.

00:49:11Your engagement announcement should align perfectly with the Foundation Gala.

00:49:20And the Browns already offered to host the London reception.

00:49:24It's all coming together beautifully.

00:49:31I've lost my appetite.

00:49:36I'll go check on him.

00:49:37What's your problem, Charles?

00:49:48Disengagement is not happening.

00:49:50It's not up to you.

00:49:51You know that.

00:49:52Serena, we're not doing this.

00:49:55You've changed.

00:49:56Or maybe I finally just stopped pretending.

00:50:02Disengagement is not happening.

00:50:32You've been funding Alice Keaton this whole time.

00:50:37So?

00:50:38You lied to everyone, including her.

00:50:41I protected her.

00:50:44You loved her.

00:50:47Still do.

00:50:49Let it go, Serena.

00:50:52There's no point.

00:51:02I need a favour.

00:51:04Find out when the Oxford interview is.

00:51:07And make sure Alice Keaton won't show up.

00:51:14Anything?

00:51:15No?

00:51:16She's not answering.

00:51:18The interview's almost over.

00:51:20Well, she won't just not show up.

00:51:22Something's wrong.

00:51:22Where's Alice?

00:51:26When was the last time you heard from her?

00:51:28Last night.

00:51:29She said she was prepping all evening.

00:51:34James.

00:51:35Track someone for me.

00:51:38Wait.

00:51:39Where are you going?

00:51:39Chill, okay?

00:51:48It won't hurt you.

00:51:50Yeah.

00:51:51We're just supposed to keep you away from the interview.

00:51:53That's it.

00:52:01Shit.

00:52:02Come back.

00:52:03I remember how a man.

00:52:33Didn't need a second guess.

00:52:40Hey.

00:52:41Hey, hey.

00:52:41Alice.

00:52:42Alice.

00:52:43Alice, stay with me.

00:52:45Stay with me.

00:52:45Stay with me, Alice.

00:52:46Alice.

00:52:53You're awake.

00:52:55Where...

00:52:55Where am I?

00:52:57Local clinic.

00:52:58Passer-by brought you in.

00:53:01Passer-by.

00:53:01He found you on the side of the road.

00:53:04He had to leave.

00:53:05He didn't leave a name.

00:53:08Oh.

00:53:10The interview.

00:53:11What time is it?

00:53:12Easy.

00:53:13It's okay.

00:53:14Someone already contacted the university.

00:53:16Anne sent in your writing samples.

00:53:18They've rescheduled your interview for tomorrow.

00:53:20Wait.

00:53:20What?

00:53:21Who?

00:53:21No idea.

00:53:22But it's all taken care of.

00:53:27What did you say?

00:53:29Nothing.

00:53:30I just...

00:53:31had a dream.

00:53:33I got him!

00:53:44I got him!

00:53:44Oh, I knew it!

00:53:49Oh, too bad Charles isn't here to watch you crush it.

00:53:54He's not here.

00:53:56Oh, you didn't know?

00:53:58Know what?

00:53:59He left.

00:54:01A few days ago, yeah.

00:54:02Everyone doesn't really know where he went.

00:54:04Honestly, Astra's been quieter without him.

00:54:07It's probably for the best.

00:54:08Come on.

00:54:08I couldn't stay.

00:54:11I couldn't wait.

00:54:13I thought that you should know what I would have.

00:54:17I'm hanging around.

00:54:19The summer I met Charles Kenwood was loud.

00:54:23Chaotic.

00:54:24Unexpected.

00:54:27And with his absence...

00:54:29Come on!

00:54:31It ended quietly.

00:54:35Like summers always do.

00:54:38Did you feel from across the room?

00:54:43Did you feel a little enchanted?

00:54:49And joining us today,

00:54:51the decade's most unexpected literary phenomenon,

00:54:55Alice Keaton.

00:54:55Thank you for having me.

00:54:57Now, your words moved millions.

00:54:59They say your stories feel real,

00:55:03especially the ones about love.

00:55:05Which brings us to the most obvious question.

00:55:08How's your dating life like these days?

00:55:10No comment.

00:55:11A little bird told me that the past four years

00:55:14has been just writing and working,

00:55:16not even a single date.

00:55:18Let me guess a bird named Sherry.

00:55:19She caught me.

00:55:20Still no comment.

00:55:21All right, all right.

00:55:23No matter what you say,

00:55:24you write love like someone who's lived it.

00:55:29If you're so real...

00:55:30That's why today we're here sharing the story behind Alice Keaton's love.

00:55:36And no one ever quite matched the light after that.

00:55:38And let's give it up for Alice Keaton one more time.

00:55:42Congratulations, Alice.

00:55:53The numbers just came in.

00:55:55You broke your own record.

00:55:58That's...

00:55:59incredible.

00:56:00We're thinking celebration,

00:56:01press,

00:56:02photos,

00:56:03maybe tonight.

00:56:03Actually,

00:56:04there's something I'd rather do.

00:56:08I'd like to meet with the person who

00:56:10believed in me first.

00:56:12My sponsor.

00:56:14You're sure?

00:56:15Yeah.

00:56:16Just once.

00:56:18Tonight, 7pm.

00:56:19Good evening.

00:56:34Good evening.

00:56:38May I sit?

00:56:39Hey, Mr. Nonchalant.

00:56:48Hi.

00:56:50Hi.

00:56:53You look well.

00:56:56And you look like you just stepped out of a GQ cover.

00:56:59You always did.

00:57:02You were expecting someone else.

00:57:04I was...

00:57:06hoping.

00:57:07But I guess I always knew.

00:57:11I didn't come here to confuse you.

00:57:13Or to reopen anything.

00:57:17I just wanted to say congratulations.

00:57:20Oh.

00:57:24Didn't know you're still reading.

00:57:27You're rich enough not to do so.

00:57:30Always.

00:57:31Either way,

00:57:33your sponsorship started my career.

00:57:35So...

00:57:35No.

00:57:35No, you've...

00:57:37You earned everything.

00:57:41Every word.

00:57:43Every page.

00:57:45Every reader.

00:57:47That's what I came to say.

00:57:53It was good to see you again.

00:57:54I hope.

00:57:55Charles.

00:57:56Can you just...

00:57:58Wait a little longer.

00:58:01I think I knew it was you.

00:58:11There was one email.

00:58:14You said something.

00:58:15Felt familiar.

00:58:16Really?

00:58:17Kind of had that rich asshole with a conscience energy.

00:58:21Very on brand.

00:58:22I should have anonymized my grammar.

00:58:25Too late.

00:58:26Your semicolon usage gave you away.

00:58:29Still the only girl I know who flirts through punctuation.

00:58:31Still the only guy I know who uses wiles unironically.

00:58:34You've changed.

00:58:38You've changed.

00:58:41But...

00:58:41Not really.

00:58:42You haven't changed.

00:58:46But maybe you've grown into who you really were.

00:58:51Anyway.

00:58:52I wanted to say...

00:58:57And...

00:58:58Thanks for being here tonight.

00:59:00You didn't have to come.

00:59:01Don't tell me what I have to do.

00:59:07You didn't have to come.

00:59:10Don't tell me what I have to do.

00:59:12Don't tell me what I have to do.

00:59:31If you could go back.

00:59:33If you had the chance to do it all again.

00:59:35Would you do anything differently?

00:59:42No.

00:59:47No.

00:59:52I see.

00:59:56I know my answer now.

00:59:58I didn't have the power back then.

01:00:00Not enough to protect you.

01:00:02I couldn't watch you get crushed because of me.

01:00:05Because of my name.

01:00:07My family.

01:00:10I didn't want to be the reason you lost everything.

01:00:13So you just disappeared.

01:00:14Without a word.

01:00:19If you had the chance to see the world.

01:00:21Without me weighing you down.

01:00:23If you still chose me after that.

01:00:29You keep saying you wanted to give me a choice.

01:00:31But you made a choice for me.

01:00:36Did it ever cross your mind that maybe...

01:00:39I would have chosen you anyway?

01:00:48I didn't think I was the smart choice.

01:00:51You weren't.

01:00:52But I never claimed to be that smart.

01:01:05This is me.

01:01:06Right.

01:01:06I'm still mad at you, you know.

01:01:18I'm still in love with you, you know.

01:01:20Do you want to come in for a bit?

01:01:32You're asking your ex, who you haven't seen in four years,

01:01:37to come into your hotel at approximately 11pm.

01:01:40You were right.

01:01:43You never were that smart.

01:01:45You don't have to come.

01:01:47Don't tell me what I have to do.

01:01:49Stop quoting yourself.

01:02:04I recycle.

01:02:05It saves energy.

01:02:06This feels wildly irresponsible.

01:02:10You sound like a disclaimer.

01:02:12You're the one who wants called romance a distraction.

01:02:14I said that?

01:02:15Yeah.

01:02:16Before calling Wuthering Heights overrated.

01:02:18Still is.

01:02:20You're lucky you're a good kisser.

01:02:25That is cute to me.

01:02:27Don't you dare quote poetry.

01:02:29I wasn't going to.

01:02:30I forgot all of it the day you left.

01:02:33Then shut up.

01:02:35And prove it.

01:02:41I still can't believe this is happening.

01:02:44I told you that you're the worst enemies or secretly married.

01:02:47And I told you they're both.

01:02:52It's more than a night to let go.

01:02:55I vow to always tell you the truth.

01:03:19Except for when you've asked how your cooking was.

01:03:21Then I lie.

01:03:23Respectfully.

01:03:25I vow to keep choosing you.

01:03:28Loudly.

01:03:30Quietly.

01:03:31Always.

01:03:33Even when you forget to do the laundry.

01:03:37Is he actually good at this?

01:03:39I mean, he did beat her at sarcasm.

01:03:45I vow to argue with you at least twice a week.

01:03:48Especially over Shakespeare.

01:03:50I vow to write you into every story.

01:03:53Even when I say I didn't.

01:03:54You will always be part of my life.

01:03:58If she quotes Austen in this toast, I'm out.

01:04:01No, you're not.

01:04:01You're going to cry harder.

01:04:02I can't believe you picked Paris.

01:04:23I can't believe you picked Paris.

01:04:28Such a cliche honeymoon destination.

01:04:31Guard your phone.

01:04:33Relax.

01:04:34Just don't dress like a walking inheritance and you'll be fine.

01:04:36You are not wearing a hat on our honeymoon.

01:04:43Please, Alice, go change.

01:04:45Don't tell me what I have to do.

01:04:51No.

01:04:52No, no, no, no.

01:04:53That is not an invitation to...

01:04:55Do not take off these clothes.

01:04:56I've ever ruled.

01:04:57But you look much better without them.

01:05:05To the ones who loved in silence, in chaos, in chapters, you will find your way home.

01:05:16Sometimes I want to be on my own.

01:05:19But I don't want to die alone.

01:05:21God.

01:05:21It's up to us to make sure that we can gain what's been passed through these books.

01:05:51Help us develop, learn, and grow.
