Short filmTranscript
00:00:00When a mysterious billionaire asks you to marry him for a year and give him an heir,
00:00:05what do you say? He offered me 10 million dollars. I needed the money to pay for my
00:00:10little brother's heart surgery. I couldn't say no. So I moved into his mansion and slowly I got
00:00:18to know him. His likes, his dislikes, his smile, those lips. The man behind the six foot five
00:00:26perfect body. The heart he liked to pretend he didn't have. And eventually I started to realize
00:00:32I wanted this baby and the strange little family we'd become. I wanted him. But my year with Gideon
00:00:40Maslow was coming to an end. Was it possible he felt the same way?
00:00:56I wanted him.
00:01:02Why won't you tell me who's our friend?
00:01:10Why won't you tell me who that woman is?
00:01:27Because I don't want to talk about other women.
00:01:33What does that mean?
00:01:35That means I only want to think about you, my little dove.
00:02:05So you're interested in becoming a surrogate?
00:02:16Well, I can't think of anything more fulfilling than bringing new life into this world.
00:02:21That's beautiful, sweetheart.
00:02:23Did you bring everything I asked for?
00:02:25Oh, yes. Medical records, blood work, it's all there.
00:02:28Everything seems to be in order. You're young, you're healthy. I can already think of several clients who would love you.
00:02:38Oh, that's great. It's a huge relief, honestly.
00:02:41Oh, but, honey, wait. Your medical records are missing the details of your previous birth.
00:02:47Previous birth?
00:02:49To be a surrogate, you need to have given birth before. It was in the literature we sent over.
00:02:53No, please.
00:02:55Perhaps you can consider egg donation.
00:02:57That doesn't pay enough.
00:02:59Oh, sweetheart, egg donation is still a beautiful way to help bring new life into the world.
00:03:04Let me get you a pamphlet.
00:03:09Hey cutie.
00:03:37Hey.
00:03:39Oh no, don't get up.
00:03:41It's fine.
00:03:42How are you feeling?
00:03:43Well, I can't live like this much longer.
00:03:45Come on, don't say that.
00:03:47I'm supposed to start college in three months.
00:03:49And instead I'm here,
00:03:51rotting, on a couch.
00:03:53You just have to take things easy until we-
00:03:55I know, I know.
00:04:00By the way, um,
00:04:02have you heard of someone named Gideon Maslow?
00:04:06Yeah, of course.
00:04:07He's the CEO of Maslow Enterprises.
00:04:09He's a billionaire.
00:04:11Why?
00:04:13Just saw the name somewhere.
00:04:15Who is this?
00:04:20Hi, uh, this is Alice Gardner.
00:04:24The Parkside Surrogacy Agency referred me.
00:04:27Okay.
00:04:28I'm here to help you have a baby.
00:04:31They were supposed to send me a selection of women to choose from.
00:04:35Well, the agency is confident that I'm the best choice.
00:04:38Well, I can't speak about this now.
00:04:40My house tomorrow.
00:04:41I'll send a car.

00:06:13legal firestorm on your ass the likes of which you couldn't even imagine your
00:06:19lawyers are gonna need lawyers and their lawyers are gonna need lawyers okay

00:06:47marry me and give birth to my air I'm sorry what
00:06:57oh you're one of those billionaires freaky psychopath well the marriage would be a
00:07:04temporary situation after the birth of my son your son or whatever after the
00:07:10birth of my heir we'll divorce he'll retain visitation rights but the marriage
00:07:16has to appear real for at least one year why if I want my heir to eventually take
00:07:22over the company he has to maintain my family's pristine reputation you see the
00:07:27community would never accept a bastard I don't get it you have money and a nice

00:19:14You heard Mr. Maslow
00:19:32Oh, thank you
00:19:49You know, I've become such a fast reader these last few weeks
00:19:53See, perks of taking it easy
00:19:55Exactly
00:19:56Who needs friends when you have your sister's old books
00:19:58Ha, bunny
00:20:00Really, I'm super proud of how seriously you're taking this recovery
00:20:07Yeah, anything to get me back to real life faster
00:20:10I hate to break it to you, buddy
00:20:13But this is a lot more like real life than whatever you're missing over a summer break
00:20:17How is this real life?
00:20:20Having your priorities straight
00:20:22Compromising on joy because it's what you have to do
00:20:25It doesn't get more real life than that, babe
00:20:28Looking good, isn't he?
00:20:32You've done great work
00:20:33Well, I take tips
00:20:35I'm a little strapped for cash at the moment
00:20:38Saving up for a big surgery
00:20:39Speaking of
00:20:41We were able to set a date
00:20:43The nurse will go over everything with you
00:20:47But we're looking pretty good
00:20:49Nico's on the up and up
00:20:50So Helga told me you went snooping
00:21:07What a tattletale
00:21:13I gave you access to every other room in the house
00:21:16You couldn't respect my one wish?
00:21:17Have you ever read the story of Bluebeard?
00:21:19Obviously not
00:21:20Okay, well, it's a folk tale
00:21:22About a woman who marries an older man named Bluebeard
00:21:24She moves in with him
00:21:26And he allows her access to every room in the house
00:21:28Except for one
00:21:29Sound familiar?
00:21:31So what?
00:21:33So, it turns out he had the corpses of six other wives
00:21:35Stuffed in the room
00:21:36You think I went through all this just to kill you?
00:21:41There's easier ways of doing that
00:21:43And much more fun ones
00:21:45Well, when you tell me something is off limits
00:21:47I'm gonna assume the worst
00:21:48You are so stubborn
00:21:50He did not disclose that in the contract
00:21:54Before we signed it
00:21:55Well, you're a secretive
00:21:57You didn't mention that
00:21:58And I don't think you're really 6'5
00:22:00No, I'm 6'5
00:22:03Come on, Gideon
00:22:04You can trust me
00:22:05Who is she?
00:22:08The woman in the painting
00:22:09She's the reason why I won't trust you
00:22:13Or any other woman for that matter
00:22:20I won't you tell me who that woman is
00:22:50Because I don't want to talk about other women
00:22:54What does that mean?
00:23:03That means
00:23:04I only want to think about you
00:23:08My little dove
00:23:20What the...
00:23:32What the...
00:23:36Hey!
00:24:01Hello?
00:24:02Crazy how we live in the same house and I can still go days without seeing you.
00:24:06Big house.
00:24:07Gets lonely.
00:24:09Pancakes?
00:24:11Pancakes. Want some?
00:24:13No, I'm more of a waffle man. You know, there's more surface area for the syrup.
00:24:17Here, try one. It's good. I promise.
00:24:26It's my secret recipe.
00:24:31It's good, right?
00:24:40It's good. It's really good. You're not going to have any?
00:24:44No, I had the craziest craving for them this morning, but now my stomach feels a little weird.
00:24:49Alice.
00:24:51Hmm.
00:24:57You think?
00:24:58Do you have a test?
00:25:01What's it say?
00:25:12Negative.
00:25:14Damn.
00:25:15I really thought it would work.
00:25:17I'll get a better doctor.
00:25:19You know, maybe we need to do an egg retrieval first.
00:25:21Create an embryo.
00:25:23And plant it back into you.
00:25:25That could take months.
00:25:26But you signed the contract.
00:25:28You knew you were in this for the long haul.
00:25:30Oh, I know. I'm just bummed that it didn't work.
00:25:35Oh. Yeah.
00:25:38No.
00:25:40Me too.
00:25:40You know, there are other ways I could get pregnant that involves less needles and plastic cups and hospital gowns.
00:26:01Oh, yeah?
00:26:01Birds do it.
00:26:05Bees do it.
00:26:06I mean, why can't we do it?
00:26:09No, Alice, I'm not paying you to have sex with me.
00:26:17I know, but you are paying me to have a child with you, and this could really increase our chances.
00:26:22No, Alice, sex, it complicates things.
00:26:26Of course it does, when feelings are involved.
00:26:28But we are two business partners with a goal, and sex could be the solution.
00:26:35Aren't you a little bit curious?
00:26:38Yeah, I'm curious.
00:26:41I know you don't trust women or whatever, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't have any pleasure.
00:26:49And you must find me a little attractive.
00:26:51I mean, you want your heir to have half of my genes.
00:26:55You sure that's what you really want to do?
00:26:59I'm sure.
00:27:05There's just one thing you should know.
00:27:07Yeah?
00:27:08What is it?
00:27:10I'm a virgin.
00:27:15What?
00:27:17How?
00:27:19Our parents died when I was 17.
00:27:21I didn't have time to date.
00:27:23If I wasn't working, I was with Nico.
00:27:25So you haven't been on one date?
00:27:28Men have asked me out, yeah, but they didn't understand why I couldn't leave my brother,
00:27:33and I didn't want to bring strangers back to our apartment.
00:27:37Look, this is the first time in my life where I haven't been worried about money.
00:27:43About how I'm going to pay rent, how I'm going to pay Nico's next medical bill.
00:27:47For once in my life, I can finally think about what I might want, what I might desire.
00:27:55So you were going to have my baby, and you've never had sex before?
00:27:59I know.
00:27:59Well, I'm a saint, the Virgin Mary.
00:28:07What, does this void the deal?
00:28:12I should have told you.
00:28:13Yes, you should have told me.
00:28:18Hey, where are you going?
00:28:20I, uh, I have to think.
00:28:33Hello, brother.
00:28:35It's unlike you to have me over on a work day.
00:28:38I have a problem.
00:28:41Alice.
00:28:43Oh, a mystery girlfriend.
00:28:44Yeah, she's a, uh, uh, a virgin.
00:28:52There's a twist.
00:28:56I'm very surprised.
00:28:58She's quite pretty.
00:29:01It's just a little more responsibility than I was prepared for.
00:29:05I know it's been a while since you've been with anyone,
00:29:09but I'm sure you remember how to do it.
00:29:11In fact, if I remember correctly,
00:29:13Ginny Mills was a virgin, and he slept with her.
00:29:16So was I, and we were 16.
00:29:19Let's take it slow.
00:29:20Right?
00:29:21Come on.
00:29:22Let's wine a diner.
00:29:24Ah, Gideon.
00:29:29You're going to have to behave like a gentleman.
00:29:34What will you do?
00:29:35Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:29:45What are you doing?
00:29:45No, I knew I shouldn't have told you.
00:29:48Just hold on a second.
00:29:49No, I should have known better.
00:29:50It's a mistake.
00:29:51Every time someone finds out, they look at me different.
00:29:53Like, like I'm something fragile.
00:29:55They're afraid of breaking.
00:29:56No, hey, please don't tell me what's going on in my own mind.
00:30:01Look me in the eyes and tell me you didn't change your opinion of me.
00:30:03No, truthfully, I don't know.
00:30:06I don't know how I feel about it.
00:30:08I mean, it was certainly surprising.
00:30:09Bullshit.
00:30:11Alice, just slow down, okay?
00:30:15Is that fair?
00:30:22Fair?
00:30:26How about I take you for a drink?
00:30:29I thought you don't leave the house.
00:30:33Secret bar.
00:30:37Very James Bond.
00:30:41Yeah, I don't think it's such a bad thing.
00:30:45Not you being a virgin and all.
00:30:46I think that it points to some level of discipline.
00:30:51Can we talk about something else?
00:30:55It's been a while since I've been on a date.
00:30:57I'm a bit rusty.
00:30:58So what do you do locked away here all the time?
00:31:04Dress up in costumes and fight crime?
00:31:07Well, it helps to have a full bar next to the living room.
00:31:11So you really never leave?
00:31:14Never.
00:31:15Not even on a drive?
00:31:18Not even on a drive.
00:31:21Wild.
00:31:21There are benefits, though.
00:31:25Like?
00:31:28I don't normally tell people this,
00:31:31but I make the greatest martini in the entire world.
00:31:37Oh, yeah?
00:31:39Prove it.
00:31:40Well, I'll give it to you.
00:31:58That is a damn good drink.
00:32:00Have you ever even had a martini?
00:32:03No.
00:32:04But I'm from Iowa,
00:32:06and we know drinking.
00:32:09Thank you, bartender.
00:32:12So what brings you to this bar so late at night?
00:32:18Well, you know,
00:32:19I was supposed to meet someone here.
00:32:22Was he a good-looking guy?
00:32:25Well, he certainly seems to think so.
00:32:28You been working here long?
00:32:29No, I took it over from my father.
00:32:35Yeah?
00:32:37Yeah.
00:32:39I grew up in this house.
00:32:43God, I thought I told you that.
00:32:46No.
00:32:48But you don't really tell me anything.
00:32:51Well, when my parents died,
00:32:53I took over the estate.
00:32:57Are we sleeping in their bed?
00:32:58No, no.
00:33:00Absolutely not.
00:33:01Well, I mean, maybe the mattress bed.
00:33:03Oh, very sexy.
00:33:05Oh, I didn't know I was supposed to be sexy.
00:33:09Well, it would certainly help pass the time.
00:33:11Well, it would certainly be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to be nice to
00:33:41How was that?
00:33:56It didn't pass much time.
00:34:11Are you sure you want this?
00:34:28I'm sure.
00:34:34There's no pressure.
00:34:35I feel any kind of way, and if it hurts or anything...
00:34:37I'll follow you, Leigh, all right? You take control.
00:34:46Does that sound okay?
00:34:49I want you to take control.
00:35:07Good morning.
00:35:12Oh, hey. Good morning.
00:35:16You feeling okay?
00:35:18Yeah.
00:35:19That was good, right?
00:35:23Oh, yeah. It was really good.
00:35:28We could have another drink tonight.
00:35:32I actually forgot to tell you.
00:35:33We're gonna have dinner with Karen and Jenny tonight.
00:35:34Dinner?
00:35:36Okay, but why?
00:35:38Well, I mean, we have to seem like a big happy family.
00:35:46If we're getting divorced in a year, we don't have to appear that happy.
00:35:49Well, no. I mean, we can't have any cracks in our story.
00:35:52I love my brother, but, I mean, he's got a loud mouth.
00:35:56And Jenny will say anything about everything.
00:35:58Well, then we better get our story straight.
00:36:00If we're gonna get grilled, we should be on the same page.
00:36:03Sure. We could practice.
00:36:05I mean, our brother isn't exactly Columbo, and Jenny and Helga are harmless.
00:36:11Helga's coming?
00:36:13Yeah, she says she wanted to get to know you.
00:36:15She has it out for me.
00:36:17It's one night.
00:36:19We can get through one night.
00:36:26Soup's almost ready. Just another few minutes.
00:36:29Thank you, Helga.
00:36:33It's nice to get some face time with you, Alice.
00:36:36I've been wanting to get to know you better.
00:36:38Well, you know what they say?
00:36:40You don't know someone until you see them eat.
00:36:46How do you eat, Alice?
00:36:49You want me to spoil the surprise?
00:36:51I'll tell you how I eat.
00:36:54Until I'm full.
00:36:57Can attest to that.
00:36:59So tell us, how did you and Gideon meet?
00:37:01And the questions begin before you even hire appetizers.
00:37:05It'll be another few minutes.
00:37:07What were you saying, Gideon, about how you two met?
00:37:10Well, dear, would you like me to or would you like to?
00:37:13Well, I just love the way you tell it.
00:37:15How did you tell it?
00:37:16All right.
00:37:17Well, it's a very funny story, actually.
00:37:20We met at a charity event a few years ago,
00:37:23and then we happened to come across each other online
00:37:26a few months ago.
00:37:29What's funny about that?
00:37:31The way life works, sometimes.
00:37:35Well, honey, you forgot the funniest part
00:37:38about how later that night you accidentally tripped me.
00:37:41And then she dropped her champagne glass.
00:37:43What event was it?
00:37:49Hmm?
00:37:50What charity event was it?
00:37:51The one for the opera.
00:37:56I remember this.
00:37:58I literally remember Gideon telling me that he tripped someone.
00:38:03Don't you remember, Kieran?
00:38:04I told you about this.
00:38:05You know, I just don't remember you in our circle.
00:38:10You don't seem like the type.
00:38:12Why?
00:38:13Am I not high-class enough?
00:38:14I didn't mean that.
00:38:15No, it's okay.
00:38:16I get it.
00:38:17I would be worried, too,
00:38:18if I thought someone was trying to take advantage of my family.
00:38:21I know you have a lot to protect,
00:38:22and I don't come from a home like this.
00:38:25So you're right.
00:38:26I can't prove to you that I'm not someone who's a man.
00:38:29You're right.
00:38:30I can't prove to you that I'm not someone who's a man.
00:38:32I know you have a lot to protect,
00:38:34and I don't come from a home like this.
00:38:37So you're right.
00:38:39I can't prove to you that I'm not someone who's a man.
00:38:41I'm not some gold digger.
00:38:43All I can do is promise you that Gideon and I,
00:38:49we know the truth, and we trust each other.
00:39:00You really are a special girl.
00:39:02I had my doubts, of course.
00:39:05I couldn't be sure of your intentions,
00:39:07especially with the way you walked in that first day.
00:39:09Like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
00:39:12You two moved in together so quick,
00:39:14I assumed that Gideon got you pregnant.
00:39:17You can imagine my relief when I saw the negative pregnancy test.
00:39:23Pregnancy test?
00:39:25Were you going through my trash?
00:39:30Of course not, Alice.
00:39:32Be reasonable.
00:39:33I was cleaning up the mess you made in your bathroom
00:39:36and didn't know what I was looking at until it was too late.
00:39:39Are you trying to get pregnant?
00:39:40Of course not, Kieran, but accidents happen.
00:39:42We are trying.
00:39:48Gideon, you don't think it's a little rushed?
00:39:51Of course it's rushed.
00:39:52No, it's not.
00:39:54And how is that?
00:39:55Because we...
00:40:01It's okay, you can tell if I'm Gideon.
00:40:03I asked him to keep it as a surprise,
00:40:05but we're getting married.
00:40:08What?
00:40:13When is this happening?
00:40:14Um...
00:40:16Next week?
00:40:20And you're sure this is something you want to do?
00:40:23I'm positive.
00:40:33Well, in that case...
00:40:36Welcome to the family, Alice!
00:40:40Soup's on!
00:40:44I'm sorry, I told everyone we're getting married.
00:40:46I panicked.
00:40:47Maybe we're going to find out sooner or later.
00:40:49You know, now we need to pull together a quick wedding.
00:40:52Sounds easy enough.
00:40:55Oh, we gotta get Nico cleared for a couple hours from the hospital.
00:40:59Why?
00:41:01Don't you want your brother there?
00:41:03How would that help the plan?
00:41:07No, I mean, don't you want your brother at the wedding?
00:41:11Now's not a good time.
00:41:14And besides, he'll be there when I get married for real one day.
00:41:20Yeah, no, that's fine.
00:41:21That's fine.
00:41:21Um...
00:41:22I gotta get a...
00:41:23Get a...
00:41:24Prepared...
00:41:25Um...
00:41:26You gotta get a dress.
00:41:36I almost forgot.
00:41:37Need help?
00:41:38I think I got it.
00:41:39Please, let me help.
00:41:53It's what I'm here for.
00:41:54Are you nervous?
00:42:09Why would I be nervous?
00:42:10It's your wedding day.
00:42:12Right.
00:42:14I'm actually fine.
00:42:16Gideon's a great guy.
00:42:18I'm aware.
00:42:19I just mean there's nothing to be nervous about.
00:42:24I'm happy for you.
00:42:25Both of you.
00:42:26But especially you.
00:42:28What an amazing accomplishment.
00:42:30You should take your seat.
00:42:32The ceremony's starting soon and I want to make sure you have a great view.
00:42:36It's bad luck to see each other before the wedding.
00:42:55I know.
00:42:56I think I can afford it.
00:42:58Why's that?
00:43:00Hold on one second.
00:43:02I got a surprise for you.
00:43:08Congratulations.
00:43:16What are you doing here?
00:43:17It's your big day.
00:43:19We thought we'd surprise you.
00:43:20We?
00:43:21Me and Gideon.
00:43:25Hey, hey, hey.
00:43:30Think about how happy Mom and Dad would be to see us right now.
00:43:33Two orphans all grown up.
00:43:40Why did you get so old?
00:43:44We both got old way too young.
00:43:47I love that you're here.
00:43:50Okay, but nothing is worth risking your health.
00:43:54You're all I got, you know that?
00:43:58Not anymore.
00:44:03You're sure you're okay to sit through the whole ceremony?
00:44:05Oh, yeah.
00:44:06Definitely good enough to have a few drinks later.
00:44:08Let's get you wifed.
00:44:15You, Alice.
00:44:16Take Gideon to be your lawfully wedded husband.
00:44:18Promising to love and cherish through joy and sorrow,
00:44:21through sickness and health and whatever challenges you may face
00:44:24as long as you both shall live?
00:44:28I do.
00:44:29Would you please exchange rings?
00:44:44I do.
00:44:45Would you please exchange rings?
00:44:47Would you please exchange rings?
00:44:49By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:44:56You may kiss the bride.
00:44:58I do.
00:45:06By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:45:08and wife, you may kiss the bride.
00:45:38God, you are so beautiful.
00:45:44You have no idea how mad I am at you.
00:45:48You were incredible today.
00:46:08Have you ever even heard of a boundary?
00:46:12Well, I've closed nine-figure deals on seven continents.
00:46:16Of course I've heard of boundaries.
00:46:19I just, I don't know, I thought you'd be more appreciative.
00:46:23How? You totally ignored what I said.
00:46:27Because it wasn't what you wanted.
00:46:29What I want is for Nico to be healthy for his surgery.
00:46:32You jeopardized his health.
00:46:34Do you know how big of a violation that is?
00:46:36He's fine. Kieran is driving him back as we speak.
00:46:40He's gonna get plenty of rest for his procedure tomorrow.
00:46:42You're not his father.
00:46:43You're not his mother.
00:46:45Alice.
00:46:50No, I don't want to see you.
00:46:52I'm moving to another room to tell Helga whatever you want.
00:46:56Tell her we're fighting.
00:46:58No, Alice.
00:47:00Today's the day.
00:47:17First day of the rest of my life.
00:47:19Or the last. We'll see.
00:47:21God, I hate when you say stuff like that.
00:47:24I'm just joking. Relax.
00:47:26It'll be fine.
00:47:30So where's your husband?
00:47:32You know, he doesn't leave the house much.
00:47:34Or at all, apparently.
00:47:36I was hoping he'd be with you.
00:47:39Well, don't worry about me.
00:47:42The doctor is gonna take you to the operating room soon.
00:47:45And I will be here the whole time.
00:47:47I know you will be.
00:47:48I know you will be.
00:48:13Gideon.
00:48:14You left the house.
00:48:20It was getting stuffy in there.
00:48:22What are you doing here?
00:48:26I just, I really want to be here with you.
00:48:47I'm a nervous wreck.
00:48:49He's gonna be fine.
00:48:51You wanna know how I know?
00:48:53How?
00:48:55Because I think he promised.
00:48:57I take these so seriously.
00:49:02Alice?
00:49:18Yes?
00:49:21How is Eve?
00:49:24The surgery was a huge success.
00:49:31They'll bring him in here in just a moment.
00:49:33Okay.
00:49:34Um, so everything went well?
00:49:35Better than we could have hoped for.
00:49:37We'll keep him for two more days and then he'll be free to go home.
00:49:41Two days, is that enough time?
00:49:45I want him to have around-the-clock medical care.
00:49:47What if there are complications?
00:49:49We don't foresee any complications.
00:49:51Money's not going to be a concern.
00:49:53Whatever it takes is fine.
00:49:55Money's not a concern for us either.
00:49:57The thing is, I don't think he needs to be here any longer.
00:50:01He'll make a speedy recovery.
00:50:11No, but I mean, it is incredible.
00:50:14It has been extremes as a balance, right?
00:50:16What?
00:50:17Yes, that's what I'm saying.
00:50:19Ouch.
00:50:35Gideon?
00:50:41What are you doing?
00:51:02I want this to be Nico's room.
00:51:06You don't have to do that.
00:51:08It's a big house.
00:51:09There are plenty of rooms.
00:51:10No, I'm ready to move on.
00:51:14To start over.
00:51:17Are you ready to tell me about her?
00:51:28Krista, she was quite the artist.
00:51:32Very famous.
00:51:33I'm sure you've heard of her.
00:51:35I'm absolutely sure I haven't.
00:51:36What happened between you two?
00:51:40She lied.
00:51:41She knew I wanted an heir.
00:51:44She had me fall in love with her.
00:51:47All the while knowing that she didn't want to become a mother.
00:51:51Women have always lied, even when I was a kid, they would lie just to come to see my house.
00:52:01And then as we grew up, it became more about the gifts and the vacations.
00:52:06And my point is, I'm used to it.
00:52:09What made her different?
00:52:12She really had me fooled.
00:52:15She really had me fooled.
00:52:21You know, I had to pay her off, just to never see her again.
00:52:25I was so angry.
00:52:31I didn't want to see anyone.
00:52:33And that's when the rumors started, recluse billionaire, Gideon Maslow.
00:52:38Must be hard to hear people say that about you.
00:52:42You know, I didn't care what they said anymore.
00:52:45You know, I had given up on love.
00:52:46But I had never given up on an heir.
00:52:50You know, I'm not gonna hurt you like she did.
00:52:53You really can trust me.
00:52:56Can I tell you a secret?
00:52:59I think I believe you.
00:53:13You know, I think we can trust them.
00:53:15I believe you were saved.
00:53:17I think I'm worried about them.
00:53:19I know my wife's willingness to trust you.
00:53:20You know, I think I'm going to trust them.
00:53:22I don't know my wife.
00:53:23I want to trust them.
00:53:24But I feel like you're not.
00:53:25I'm sure I'm not.
00:53:26I'm sure I'm not.
00:53:27You know what they're about.
00:53:27I'm so sorry.
00:53:28And I'm sure I'm sorry you're not.
00:53:29I don't know my wife.
00:53:30I don't know my wife.
00:53:31I mean, I don't know my wife.
00:55:33I've never heard from you.
00:55:35We're nearly ready to send you some options.
00:55:39No, I'm very pleased with the one that you referred.
00:55:44Mr. Maslow, we never referred anyone.
00:55:49Wait, what do you mean?
00:55:50I'm working with Alice Gardner.
00:55:52It was Alice Gardner.
00:56:03Is everything okay?
00:56:05No, I just got off the phone with, uh, Brenda.
00:56:08Parkside surrogacy.
00:56:10Gideon.
00:56:10I thought you said that I can trust you.
00:56:13God, I almost believed you.
00:56:15All the while, you've been lying to my face.
00:56:18Gideon, just let me explain.
00:56:19You are just like the rest of them.
00:56:22You know that you are...
00:56:23You're just like her.
00:56:25Okay, you're right.
00:56:26I'm no different than her.
00:56:27I lied to get close to you, and I was only in it for the money,
00:56:30but somewhere along the way, things changed.
00:56:33Okay, I fell in love with you, Gideon.
00:56:37I'm in love with you.
00:56:39That's what Krista said, too.
00:56:41I don't know what to say to make you believe me.
00:56:43Don't try, because it's not going to work.
00:56:45Right, I thought that having a contract
00:56:48would finally take the complications out of everything,
00:56:50letting me finally get an heir to my estate.
00:56:54God, you violated it from the start.
00:56:56You don't want an heir, Gideon.
00:56:58You want a child.
00:57:00You want to be a dad and to have a family,
00:57:02and deep down, you know that.
00:57:03I don't want to leave when the money is paid.
00:57:06I want to stay, and I want to have a family with you.
00:57:09You're not scared that it's fake.
00:57:11You're scared that it might actually be real this time.
00:57:16I feel sorry for you, Gideon.
00:57:19You have everything in this world,
00:57:22and you're going to end up with nothing.
00:57:24Oh!
00:57:43I didn't know you were here.
00:57:46I was going to make the bed.
00:57:49Looks like you already did.
00:57:51Hmm.
00:57:51Looks like I already did.
00:57:57I'm sorry, Gideon.
00:58:00I know you were really hoping she would be the one,
00:58:03but I guess she was just another one.
00:58:08It makes me question if I could be of assistance.
00:58:13Not unless you can get me an heir.
00:58:15That's actually exactly what I wanted to talk to you about.
00:58:21The last thing I want to do is overstep.
00:58:25It would be my nightmare to learn that I've crossed some sort of boundary.
00:58:29But I think Alice has confused you.
00:58:32Somewhere along the way, she got in your head and made it all mushy-gushy.
00:58:36What happened to you, Gideon?
00:58:39You want an heir?
00:58:41Then you need someone you can trust.
00:58:43Someone who you don't need to worry will start feeling feelings or thinking thoughts.
00:58:48Gideon, I've stood by you, unwaveringly, watching these women enter and exit your life.
00:58:59You really want an heir?
00:59:02The Gideon I know would put one inside me right now.
00:59:06No, she didn't confuse me.
00:59:28She colored me in.
00:59:30Shaded me into three dimensions and she tore it all up.
00:59:45It's never simple with you, is it?
00:59:49I guess not.
00:59:51But I won't be making that mistake again.
00:59:56Which mistake is that?
00:59:57Poaching a surrogate for a contract marriage or trying to impregnate a virgin.
01:00:05Falling in love.
01:00:12Okay.
01:00:14I am going to do something that is very unlike me and actually give a shit for a second.
01:00:23Gideon, aside from the doctor that delivered you, I have known you longer than anyone on
01:00:30this planet.
01:00:32And once I finally kill that doctor, it'll be just me.
01:00:35Through all the parties, all the success, and all the women, I've never seen you as happy
01:00:42as when you are with Alice.
01:00:44I know she lied to you.
01:00:49She lied to me from the very beginning, from the absolute onset.
01:00:52Everything was built on a lie.
01:00:55But if you're going to trust something, trust your heart.
01:01:02Do you really want to lose her?
01:01:06Is it really worth that?
01:01:07So it was never real.
01:01:16It wasn't.
01:01:18Why didn't you tell me?
01:01:20I didn't think you'd understand.
01:01:22You try to protect me way too much, Alice.
01:01:25That's my job.
01:01:26And you've done a good job.
01:01:28You fixed my broken heart.
01:01:30But now I can do all the things that we dreamed about when we were kids.
01:01:36I don't need a mom.
01:01:38I need a sister.
01:01:41I love you so much.
01:01:44Can I tell you something?
01:01:46Always.
01:01:48I really loved him too.
01:01:50I love you.
01:02:00Hey.
01:02:16Hi.
01:02:20Well, I'm going to go to my room.
01:02:22Be nice.
01:02:23Hi.
01:02:27I'm sorry for lying to you.
01:02:28No, I'm sorry for giving it all up and wanting to throw it all away.
01:02:35That's not what you do, you know, when you love someone.
01:02:40I love you, Alice.
01:02:44I love you, Gideon.
01:02:46I want to be with you, and I want a family with you, and...
01:02:50That's what I want.
01:02:51I want you forever.
01:02:52I want you forever.
01:02:58What is that?
01:03:09I felt a bit weird this morning, so I thought I'd check.
01:03:13I want you to be with you.
01:03:21I want you to be with me.
01:03:22I want you to be with me.
