00:00Less than last week, then he's gonna be furious.
00:05They are paying us thousands of dollars for Anna.
00:09We should have sold her off years ago.
00:11Dad, what if she says no?
00:13She has no choice.
00:15Dad?
00:16Oh, Anna, you're home early.
00:18What are you talking about?
00:19We owe some money, and for once in your life, you're gonna come in handy.
00:24You're selling me.
00:25Damien Crawford is looking for a bride, and you make a great fit.
00:30Damien?
00:32The adopted son of the Crawford crime family.
00:35He's dangerous.
00:36And that's exactly why he can afford a bride, sis.
00:40I brought home my pay.
00:42I can save more, but you have to give me some time, that's all.
00:45300 bucks?
00:46That's all you're worth?
00:48I'll work double shifts.
00:49I'll clean this house.
00:51I paid a bill.
00:52I paid your tuition, Claire.
00:53How could you be so ungrateful?
00:55Touch your mouth.
00:56Don't talk to my daughter that way.
01:00I'm your daughter, too, Dad.
01:03Pack your bags.
01:04You're leaving tomorrow.
01:05Dad, please.
01:09Rumor is, he's old, bald, ugly.
01:13Smells like rot.
01:14Lucky you.
01:15I has a full package.
01:16Thank you for spreading your legs, you little whore.
01:18Enough, please.
01:21Sweet dreams, Mrs. Crawford.
01:22The Winters have agreed.
01:32For half a million dollars, they're sending their daughter tomorrow to be your bride.
01:36Solder is tribute, you mean.
01:38Either way, it's your father's wish to see you married.
01:40And he appointed the Winters girl himself.
01:42It's a contract.
01:43Nothing more.
01:44I'm going to fall for some clueless tool from a crumbling family.
01:48She'll arrive in the morning.
01:50Well, we'll see if she's worth the price.
01:58Welcome, Mrs. Winters.
02:00Mr. Crawford.
02:02It's nice to meet you.
02:04I'm Jack, his assistant.
02:05Mr. Crawford is currently occupied.
02:06Of course.
02:07I'm so sorry.
02:08You're obviously too young to be him.
02:10Too young?
02:11How old do you think he is?
02:12I'm sure he's youthful at heart, even if his body says otherwise.
02:17What have you heard about Mr. Crawford?
02:19Just rumors, really.
02:20Come on.
02:21I'm not going to tell.
02:22I hear he has a very specific hairstyle.
02:25Specific?
02:26As in possibly no hair at all.
02:29Which is fine.
02:30I'm not really that into hair.
02:32Hair is very overrated.
02:34Noted.
02:34Or anything else?
02:35Some say he avoids cologne.
02:38Or just that he has a signature scent.
02:40Not bad, just memorable.
02:43Sort of earthy or primal.
02:46Primal.
02:47Got it.
02:48He's mature, like a vintage wine.
02:51With depth and dust.
02:53He's seasoned.
02:54Seasonal.
02:55Is that how you greet your future husband?
03:06I didn't mean to.
03:07Quite the first impression, Anna Winters.
03:10Let's see what your second one looks like.
03:12Look, let's skip the formalities.
03:25You need money.
03:26I have it.
03:27That's why you're here.
03:28I came here for my family.
03:29I don't care.
03:31Here's the arrangement.
03:33We married, in name only.
03:34I need a wife to maintain my family's trust,
03:37and a married man looks better to the public.
03:39You will be my wife, on paper.
03:42You'll attend events.
03:43You'll smile for cameras.
03:44You'll play the part.
03:45But nothing more.
03:47You will not share my meals.
03:49You will not share my space.
03:50And you certainly will not share my bed.
03:53You will stay in the room farthest away from mine.
03:56We will not be friends, or lovers,
03:58or anything other than strangers.
04:00I will not care for you.
04:02You will not interfere in my life.
04:06And I will never, ever love you.
04:09Hence, I suggest you do the same.
04:12Are we clear?
04:17Good.
04:18I have one request.
04:20Look, if you're hoping that I treat you like a real wife-
04:21When it's done,
04:23I want a divorce.
04:33When this is all over,
04:35I want the freedom to remarry.
04:37For actual love.
04:40Love?
04:41Are you serious?
04:43I'm giving my family my first marriage,
04:45but my second will be for me.
04:47I'm not giving up on love.
04:49Do you have any idea how laughable you sound right now?
04:52I'll follow your rules if you agree to mine.
04:56There's no reason to object.
05:07Fine.
05:08After this divorce is over,
05:10you can run off and chase whatever fairytale you want.
05:16If you're that desperate for affection.
05:25Don't worry.
05:27His father's worse than his wife.
05:29Renee, Damien's associate.
05:31I help clean his messes.
05:35Nice to meet you.
05:37Did I do something wrong?
05:39With Damien?
05:40Probably.
05:41Bad first impressions are his specialty.
05:43You'll get along.
05:45That doesn't seem to be much of a priority for him.
05:47You're pretty.
05:48He's a man.
05:49Trust me, it will become a priority.
05:55She's different.
05:57There's no fear, no resentment, no agenda.
05:59It's not one I can see.
06:01I want to know who she really is.
06:04I see she's growing on you.
06:16Come on.
06:17Catch you, my darling.
06:18Stop!
06:22You monster!
06:24You tried to kill me!
06:26It was an accident!
06:27Marla!
06:28You tried to kill me!
06:29Stay away from me!
06:35Mr. Crawford.
06:37What are you doing in here?
06:40Why are you sleeping on the floor?
06:42Bed's too soft.
06:44I'm more used to the floor.
06:46In your old house, you slept on the floor?
06:56Damien?
06:56From now on, you sleep on the bed.
07:06Why?
07:08Why do you care?
07:10Because if you don't, I'm going to tie you to it.
07:13Anna was bullied her whole life, her mother left after she was born, Fred remarried, had
07:25a new family, left her behind.
07:27But Anna was always treated as a burden, never truly part of the family.
07:31And there was an incident, a serious one, with very stuck with her, Eric.
07:36He claimed that she tried to seduce her, and when he rejected her, she harmed him out of jealousy.
07:43What did Anna say?
07:45She accused him of assaults.
07:47Said he tried to touch him.
07:48No, I don't believe her.
07:50Not their family, not the school, not even her father, Fred.
07:57Fred knew.
07:59And he did nothing.
08:02She believed her to the same roof as that bastard.
08:04The family claimed she was unstable, delusional.
08:09Anna was completely alone.
08:10I'm playful.
08:15Our own father, would this happen?
08:21Anna?
08:25Anna?
08:26Don't follow me.
08:27Don't run from me.
08:28How could I not?
08:29What was that in there?
08:30Some kind of background check?
08:32You want to confirm exactly how pathetic I am?
08:34I want the truth.
08:36For what?
08:36So you can feel sorry for me?
08:41So I can understand.
08:42You don't get to understand me.
08:46Not after you told me that this is just a contract and that I meant nothing to you.
08:50Anna?
08:53Could be.
08:58I'm so used to people like you.
09:00Curious and then disgusted.
09:03Men who think they're doing me a favor by asking questions,
09:05they don't want to know the answers to.
09:07If you're not like them,
09:10then let go of me.
09:14Look, I've made choices that I'm not proud of.
09:16I've built an empire with blood on my hands.
09:19I've made deals that I would sooner forget.
09:21But I know that there is a line between what is right and what is wrong.
09:26As long as you are under this roof,
09:28no one is ever going to hurt you again.
09:31You're not alone anymore.
09:32It's not just a promise.
09:34That is my duty as your husband.
09:38You mean that?
09:39Through hardship,
09:41scandal,
09:42war.
09:43Yes.
09:45I'll stand by you.
09:50But
09:50it doesn't change the rules,
09:54right?
09:54No.
09:56Rules?
09:58Contracts.
09:59All right.
10:07Our wedding tomorrow is just...
10:10It's just for sure.
10:14Get some rest.
10:21Big day, Damien?
10:23It is.
10:23You know,
10:25you may be adopted,
10:26but
10:26you've always reminded me of myself.
10:31Dad,
10:31I'm really hoping this wedding can boost this family's image.
10:35You know,
10:35restore some faith.
10:37You have a strong sense of right and wrong, son.
10:39That's why I named you heir.
10:41Now,
10:42listen to me.
10:42I know what you've been trying to do.
10:44Clean up this family.
10:45Drag us out of this dark legacy.
10:47But I need you to be careful.
10:49There are people
10:50who wish to soon fail.
10:52You mean,
10:53but you'd always have my back, right?
10:55I'm getting old, Damien.
10:57I can't protect you much longer.
11:00It's dangerous what you're trying to do.
11:02This marriage can be your shield.
11:04Dad, come on.
11:05Don't talk like you're already gone.
11:09Damien,
11:10just promise me
11:12you'll give this marriage a chance.
11:15I know you'll find happiness with this girl.
11:17Together.
11:18Maybe we will.
11:31Anna Winters,
11:32do you take this man,
11:34Damien Crawford,
11:36to be your lawfully wedded husband
11:37and promise to protect,
11:39love,
11:40and cherish him
11:41till death be your part?
11:44I do.
11:44I do.
11:44I do.
11:44I do.
11:45I do.
11:45I do.
11:46I do.
11:46I do.
11:47I do.
11:47I do.
11:47I do.
11:48I now pronounce you
11:50husband
11:51and wife.
11:53Can you
11:54take me home?
11:58What one of the family,
12:00Mrs. Crawford?
12:04Take me home.
12:08Anna,
12:10how are you settling in?
12:11I couldn't be more grateful,
12:13Mr. Crawford.
12:13Everything is so much more than I imagined.
12:17Quite the upgrade for you,
12:19I imagine.
12:21The adopted and the discarded.
12:23What a pair.
12:24Ellen.
12:27Forgive me.
12:29I need a drink.
12:31Ignore her.
12:32She's tired.
12:33Simon's second wife.
12:37She hates everyone.
12:40Especially me.
12:42Ah,
12:43congratulations.
12:46You must be Anna.
12:47So,
12:47so stunning.
12:50Kyle?
12:53Didn't know you were invited?
12:54Come on.
12:55Dad may have named you heir,
12:56but I'm his actual son.
12:57Yeah,
12:58I can't imagine how that happened.
12:59Jinx is so cool.
13:00Still sharp as ever,
13:03Dame Dame.
13:05If you ever want a taste of the real deal,
13:07just know,
13:08I'm available.
13:13My sister-in-law.
13:14Can't wait to get to know you better.
13:17That's,
13:17that's very flattering,
13:18Kyle.
13:19Kyle,
13:21flirt with someone else.
13:22That's my wife.
13:27Everyone's been very kind.
13:28Stop
13:29embarrassing me.
13:31What?
13:31You've been flirting with every other man here.
13:34Aesthetic.
13:35I'm just being polite.
13:36No,
13:36you're just being desperate for attention.
13:39Just
13:39remember your place.
13:42You're here as a contract wife,
13:43nothing more.
13:52The wedding was a hit.
13:54Did you and Anna sneak in some alone time?
13:57Where is she?
13:59You don't know.
13:59You don't know.
14:00She left early.
14:02Wanted to thank the guests and greet the press.
14:06Do you want to run?
14:08Yes.
14:09Said she wanted to make a good impression so that she can help you.
14:14She thinks she can help me.
14:15She said it may be a contract marriage but she wants to be useful, not just an arm candy.
14:25And I think she may be right.
14:31The mysterious Mrs. Crawford is winning hearts today.
14:34Graceful, confident, and completely at ease with the guests.
14:37People love her.
14:39They say she's the most gracious Crawford they've met.
14:42I went too far last night.
14:44Too far in bed?
14:45It wasn't like that.
14:51I need to see her.
14:56The venue is under fire.
14:58We're being attacked.
14:59It's chaos here.
15:05Anna Crawford appears to be missing.
15:08Eventuation and fluid.
15:09We'll try and stay with you.
15:11It was just set up.
15:16It has to be the baronies.
15:17Get the car, now.
15:25Oh, I can smell you, Madam Crawford.
15:29Come on out, sweetheart.
15:31Let's make this easy.
15:35Found you.
15:41You're going to help me!
15:44Somebody help!
15:47Get your hands off my wife!
16:04Get your hands off my wife!
16:10Get your hands off my wife!
16:17Get your hands off your wife!
16:41Go to school!
16:41Get her!
16:42Get her!
16:43Get her!
16:44Go!
16:44Come on!
16:45Come on!
16:45Come on!
16:46Come on!
16:46Come on!
16:47I regret that!
16:49I regret that!
17:11You okay? You got hurt.
17:13It's just a scratch.
17:15That works. Are you okay?
17:17Yeah. Take your shirt off.
17:19Oh, here?
17:21Yes, here, now. Come on, take your shirt off.
17:23Who says...
17:33Whoa, hey, what are you doing?
17:35I thought you wanted to check everything.
17:37That's not... I didn't mean to...
17:43Put your clothes back on.
17:45Interesting fashion choice.
17:55Damien.
17:57I thought you had left.
17:59Sit.
18:01I should go change first.
18:03You're at home.
18:05Try whatever you want.
18:07Come.
18:09Have breakfast with me.
18:11I thought I wasn't allowed to eat with you.
18:13I'll allow an exception.
18:19I have a few reminders for you.
18:21And...
18:23So...
18:25About those...
18:27Reminders?
18:29Right.
18:33Don't even think about sleeping on the floor while I'm gone.
18:35Oh, I...
18:36I...
18:37I...
18:38I wouldn't.
18:39I...
18:40I haven't been.
18:41I...
18:42I won't.
18:43The bed's really comfortable, actually.
18:45I...
18:46I...
18:47I...
18:48Is that all?
18:59Aren't you gonna say goodbye?
19:01Goodbye.
19:02It means...
19:03A kiss.
19:04Oh, um...
19:09Too late.
19:11Too late.
19:22Dad, do something.
19:23Damien voted the chest.
19:24And he sent me a court order.
19:26They're threatening to throw me in jail.
19:27Why is he doing this?
19:28We haven't even done anything to him.
19:29He's accusing Eric of a crime against his sister.
19:32And you...
19:36...are turning a blind eye.
19:37This is Anna's doing.
19:39That...
19:41...
19:49Bitch, set us up!
19:50She's a slut.
19:51I'll tell Damien the truth.
19:52That she's filthy.
19:53I nearly had her, and I just...
19:56Shut her mouth!
19:57You wanna stay alive?
19:58Don't speak like that ever again.
20:02Guys, this is insane.
20:04I made my money.
20:06Dad, we need to take back what's ours.
20:08How exactly do you plan to do that?
20:10Ah, the winter's daughter.
20:17I've heard great things about you.
20:19I'm sorry, who are you?
20:20Your rescue boat.
20:21Because you see...
20:22Soon...
20:23I'll be head of the Groffman family.
20:24I'll be head of the Groffman family.
20:26I'm leaving you in the Groffman family.
20:27I'm leaving.
20:28I'm leaving you in the Good-Zone way.
20:30Where are you then?
20:32Right, so...
20:37Right, so punch first, then block below.
20:55Got it?
20:56Okay.
20:57Good.
20:58You pick up fast.
20:59I've had good motivation.
21:01Motivation?
21:01Well, last time Damien rescued me, he got hurt.
21:04I know it's a problem.
21:06It's not a big deal.
21:07I know he's had worse, but you're hurt.
21:11I'm so from scratch.
21:16I can't stop thinking about it.
21:18I want to be strong enough to protect him, too.
21:21Even if it's just a little bit.
21:23You aren't exceeding expectations, Anna.
21:26I know everyone still thinks I'm just arm candy.
21:30But I have to be more.
21:31I have to...
21:32I need some help.
21:35I'm pretty sure you do.
21:36To Damien.
21:37Has he said that?
21:38Have you and Damien kept in touch since he left?
21:40Well, sort of.
21:42He called me once.
21:44Accidentally.
21:45Accidentally?
21:46He meant to press someone else's name.
21:48We talked for a little bit.
21:50That's all.
21:51Damien doesn't make mistakes.
21:52If he called you, it was to hear your voice.
21:55You really think so?
21:56What's going on?
22:11Damien, you're back.
22:13I lost my balance.
22:14Jack was just helping me.
22:15I was strictly training, like the instructor.
22:18As soon as I came at the wrong moment.
22:19Perhaps a proper welcome home would help.
22:23A proper welcome?
22:26Well, uh...
22:27I'll give you two some preface.
22:30Oh.
22:31Um...
22:31Welcome back.
22:36Welcome back.
22:40Hismatized by the way that you are.
22:42Hismatized by the way that you are.
22:45Hismatized by the way that you are.
22:45Hismatized by the way that you are.
22:46Hismatized by the way that you are.
22:47Hismatized by the way that you are.
22:48If you're going to do it.
22:50All right.
22:53Welcome home, Damien.
22:56Go get dressed.
22:58I'm going to see you, Dad.
23:05Can I ask?
23:07Why are we going back to my father's?
23:09I have some issues uncovered.
23:11Do I need to address them?
23:13Personally.
23:15You're not thrilled to go back?
23:19Neither are they.
23:21Trust me.
23:22No one at that house ever wanted me.
23:34We've got a new house to have.
23:36We've got a family that's lucky to have you.
23:45No one wants you here.
23:57Just saying no.
23:59Always a pleasure, Claire.
24:00Save it.
24:01Where's your old, ugly husband?
24:03Did you grow up?
24:04Did you walk?
24:04Or did you definitely already?
24:05Yeah.
24:05Yeah.
24:06I assume you're talking about me.
24:24I assume you're talking about me.
24:38No, it can't be.
24:39They said that you were old, hideous.
24:41You were the Crawford criminal.
24:43I'm here to see your father.
24:45Show me to him.
24:47And then get out of my sight.
24:51You called to say we have some matters to clarify.
24:54So talk.
24:56I'm listening.
24:58You haven't cashed your promises.
25:01The money.
25:01Let's not forget the criminal who assaulted his own sister.
25:04My wife is still here, alive, and waiting.
25:11Mr. Crawford, we kept up our end of the bargain.
25:15You have, Anna.
25:16We just want our money.
25:17Our family has never hurt anyone.
25:20You call this a family.
25:22You gave away Anna, your own daughter, and spoiled your other children.
25:27Look again.
25:28Listen to Anna.
25:28She lies.
25:29She twists things around.
25:30No.
25:30No.
25:31Your disgusting son is a liar.
25:33He's a disgrace and a bastard who assaulted his own sister.
25:36Please.
26:00Please.
26:06Have mercy as a father.
26:09You are not a father.
26:11You are a coward.
26:12Sing it.
26:14I'm ready.
26:15That's enough.
26:16I'm ready.
26:16I'm ready.
26:16I'm ready.
26:17I'm ready.
26:17I'm ready.
26:17I'm ready.
26:17I'm ready.
26:17I'm ready.
26:18And I won't run.
26:20There's no tears.
26:22I'm ready.
26:23Stay forward.
26:24These people are no longer my family.
26:28And strangers aren't worth your rage.
26:31Consider this mercy.
26:38From now on, anyone who touches her dies by my hand.
26:48But no one can hurt you.
26:56I'm in.
26:57Whatever it takes.
26:58Just destroy my sister.
27:19Just make sure you're sleeping in the bed.
27:21I am.
27:22I promise.
27:22Can you stay with me tonight?
27:32It's just been such a long day.
27:34I'm not forgetting the terms of our agreement.
27:40I shouldn't pass.
27:41I'm sorry.
27:41You're right.
27:52It has been a long day.
27:54Yeah.
27:55I shouldn't be thanking me for honoring and protecting you.
28:17I should.
28:26My husband.
28:39Good morning, Mrs. Crawford.
28:41How did you sleep?
28:43If you slept at all.
28:45We didn't.
28:47Never mind.
28:48Don't be shy.
28:49I've never seen Damien this happy.
28:52Renee?
28:55What's Damien really like?
28:57I want to get to know him better.
29:00What's on your mind?
29:03Sometimes it...
29:04I feel so close to him.
29:06And like we're really connecting.
29:08And then he pulls away.
29:10And it's like I'm back at square one.
29:12And just part of some plan.
29:14Look, he's really clumsy with words.
29:15But everyone can tell he's different with you.
29:18That's a good thing.
29:20We started as a contract.
29:23With rules he wrote himself.
29:25I can't tell if I'm someone he's just protecting.
29:27Or if he actually...
29:29Then show him.
29:31Let him feel what you're too afraid to say.
29:33How?
29:34How?
29:35I just wanted to say good night.
29:53Good night.
30:04I told you before.
30:06If you're going to do it...
30:07Do it properly.
30:11Then teach me.
30:12If you're sure I'm going to hold him back this time.
30:35Holding back?
30:35Give him what you've been through.
30:39I didn't want to rush you.
30:41And I care about you.
30:44Won't you be ready?
30:46Then tell me how you really feel about me.
30:49Isn't it obvious?
30:50I don't know if I can...
30:52Believe what I want to believe.
30:55What does he want to believe?
30:56I don't want to believe in this.
31:04In us.
31:07I know this is just a contract marriage.
31:10But I feel more.
31:17If you can't find the words...
31:19Then just show me.
31:24Sure.
31:26Yes, ma'am.
31:28But...
31:28I want you to be sure.
31:31I mean...
31:32We'd be breaking our rules.
31:39Fuck the rules.
31:40Fuck the rules.
31:40Oh...
31:41Fuck the rules.
31:48Oh...
31:53Right.
31:54Wait.
31:55While taking notes.
31:55Why?
