00:02:29Alice Keaton
00:02:30it's very important that we look at New York's intentions

00:03:18okay
00:03:19first of all
00:03:19I wasn't iced
00:03:21it's more like
00:03:22a mutual decision
00:03:24and second
00:03:24I think he's arrogant
00:03:26cold
00:03:27thinks he's untouchable
00:03:29but if you really look at Charles
00:03:31he just seems isolated
00:03:32like he's faking out
00:03:34honestly
00:03:34I just think he's lonely
00:03:36and kind of pathetic

00:09:50but to go to the table
00:09:53and to go to the table
00:09:54and to go to the table
00:09:55and to go to the table
00:09:55and to go to the table
00:09:56Back to Golding. Remind me what he's saying through Lord of the Flies.
00:10:05Mr. Kenwood, care to share what you found so amusing?
00:10:09Not particularly.
00:10:10Oh, I insist. You seem very entertained by Golding.
00:10:15I'm not entertained by Golding, sir. On the contrary, I think his ending is...weak.
00:10:24Wait, wait. Have I actually read it?
00:10:25Quiet.
00:10:28That's an interesting take. Explain.
00:10:32He had the set up for something brutal. Something honest.
00:10:37In the end, he backed out. He could have left the boys on the island.
00:10:41Forced them to confront the collapsible morality.
00:10:43Let them choose survival.
00:10:45Or death.
00:10:47But instead, he gave them a rescue boat.
00:10:50Slapped a happily ever after on a book about savagery.
00:10:53It's a waste.
00:10:58Don't you think?
00:10:58I'm delightfully surprised, Charles.
00:11:00Didn't think you had such strong literary opinions.
00:11:03I'm always a model student, sir.
00:11:05Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
00:11:07So, a critique of Golding's mercy. Anyone disagree?
00:11:13I think Golding knew exactly what he was doing by ending the book that way.
00:11:32It's not mercy. It's irony.
00:11:35How so?
00:11:36The rescue isn't a happy ending.
00:11:41You don't just walk back into society and forget you're a monster.
00:11:45Golding didn't save them. He left us with the discomfort of pretending they could be saved.
00:11:49That's an interesting take, Miss Keeter.
00:11:51You still think it's a harsh critique?
00:11:53In some ways, but not harsh enough.
00:11:57Yes, it's a critique of toxic masculinity, but still, Golding sympathized with them.
00:12:03And the civilized world?
00:12:05Toxic, violent. He didn't call that out nearly as much.
00:12:08So, yeah, I don't think Golding pushed far enough, but I think it's unfair to call it a happy ending.
00:12:17Thank you, Miss Keeter.
00:12:18Well said.
00:12:20Anyone else?
00:12:21Both opinions are valid.
00:12:25Okay, that's kind of epic.
00:12:27Golding faced major backlash when he first published the book.
00:12:31Good literature will always divide opinion.
00:12:36What's happening to me?
00:12:43Okay, what is going on? Why is everyone staring at me?
00:12:47Well, you're new.
00:12:48And apparently had a thing with Charles.
00:12:50A what now?
00:12:52You two are in the middle of the most epic feud I should have seen in years.
00:12:56We're not even fighting.
00:12:57Well, according to everyone, you confessed your love on day one, got rejected, begged to sit next to him, got rejected again.
00:13:04And today in class, you broke down crying about not believing in happy endings and stormed out in tears.
00:13:11You were there, Sherry.
00:13:13You were there, Sherry.
00:13:14That is not what happened.
00:13:17Doesn't matter.
00:13:18People believe what they want to believe.
00:13:20And they want Charles to be flawless, untouchable.
00:13:24Wow.
00:13:25Is massage any like a rich kid thing or just a British specialty?
00:13:28Honestly, both.
00:13:30But seriously, Alice, some people already see you as a threat.
00:13:42Okay.
00:13:43Loaded.
00:13:45Looks like the new girl's in for a rough first semester.
00:13:47Hello?
00:14:03Hello?
00:14:05Is somebody out there?
00:14:09Oh, come on!
00:14:11Fine.
00:14:38Seriously?
00:14:39Seriously?
00:14:41Oh, shit.
00:14:48What the hell?
00:14:50Anne, I thought you were having dinner with Alice?
00:14:53She hasn't come home.
00:14:54Her phone is off.
00:14:55Maybe you've seen her this evening?
00:14:59Yikes.
00:15:00Looks like the new girl's in for a rough first semester.
00:15:09Shit.
00:15:11Ice!
00:15:16Alice!
00:15:16Mr. Pelton.
00:15:17Charles Kenwood here.
00:15:18I was wondering if I could get the timetable for Alice Keaton.
00:15:21She hasn't come home.
00:15:23I'll have it sent over.
00:15:25Check the common room in the library.
00:15:27I'll take the rest.
00:15:30Ice!
00:15:31Come on, Alice.
00:15:45Close your eyes and jump.
00:15:49It's fine.
00:15:51You're fine.
00:15:51You're fine.
00:15:52I'm fine.
00:16:11What?
00:16:11I'll have it.
00:16:12I'll have it now.
00:16:14Hey, Mr. Nonchalant
00:16:17Are you happy with how we act?
00:16:24What are you doing here?
00:16:29Can you get off me first?
00:16:41You're welcome.
00:16:41I didn't say thank you.
00:16:44I figured saving your life might earn me basic manners.
00:16:47Someone just dumped swamp water on me.
00:16:50Excuse me if I'm not feeling very polite.
00:16:52You smell like a biology experiment.
00:16:54Wow.
00:16:56You should try falling out of a window into someone's arms and getting insulted for it.
00:16:59I wouldn't recommend it.
00:17:01You're heavier than you look.
00:17:04I hope you pull your shoulder.
00:17:05Okay.
00:17:11Are you okay?
00:17:13No.
00:17:14But I will be.
00:17:16Someone did this on purpose.
00:17:18What do you think, golden boy?
00:17:21Don't worry.
00:17:22I can handle it.
00:17:22You shouldn't have to.
00:17:23I'm sorry.
00:17:34Sorry.
00:17:40Did 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.
00:17:49Oh my god.
00:17:52You okay?
00:17:55Why are you drenched?
00:17:57Yeah.
00:17:57I just took a weird shower.
00:18:00Tap exploded.
00:18:03Come on.
00:18:04Let's get you home.
00:18:15Alice Keaton, right?
00:18:16I heard she staged the whole thing for attention.
00:18:20I know how this place works.
00:18:45If you don't do anything about it, it's only going to get worse.
00:18:50I'll look into it.
00:18:53Charles?
00:18:55Good on you.
00:18:56How many here would speak up?
00:19:02I can't believe someone actually locked you in.
00:19:04That's insane.
00:19:05Where the hell was the school when this was happening?
00:19:08Busy protecting their golden boys and trust funds.
00:19:11Well, for what it's worth,
00:19:13I heard Charles looked pretty freaked out when he ran out last night.
00:19:16Please, he just didn't want a lawsuit.
00:19:19Being a scholarship student has its perks, like saving a fortune on tuition and getting
00:19:42into schools that normally wouldn't even let you pass the gates.
00:19:45But sometimes, being here means staying behind, and watching Ashford Elites go on a two-week
00:19:58enrichment program you can never afford.
00:20:03Have fun, bring me something overpriced and unnecessary.
00:20:11The trip cost 20 grand in pounds, which translates to mom's salary for half a year.
00:20:17So yeah, I didn't go.
00:20:24Uh, what are you doing here?
00:20:41Do you not believe in shirts?
00:20:43Do you not believe in dignity?
00:20:45It's comfortable.
00:20:46You look like a rejected Ewok.
00:20:48This, this is not even your kitchen.
00:20:50And this is not even your house.
00:20:52And yet, you're here, dressed like this.
00:20:55Just don't look, go away.
00:20:57Hard not to, when you're walking around dressed like that.
00:21:00What do you guys call it?
00:21:02Um, buzzkill?
00:21:04Cockblock.
00:21:05You're insufferable.
00:21:07You're the one cosplaying at breakfast.
00:21:09You know what?
00:21:10I don't get it.
00:21:11Why didn't you go on that tour?
00:21:12I thought rich people live for that kind of thing.
00:21:14Why do you think?
00:21:17Where would I go?
00:21:22I could practically recite the itinerary in my sleep.
00:21:26Florence, walk in the great footsteps of Dante, Michelangelo, Da Vinci, and Titian.
00:21:32Or Titian, if you want to sound extra pretentious.
00:21:36Then Venice, because everybody loves a good canal and getting lost in the most confusing city on earth.
00:21:42Next stop, Napoli.
00:21:44Marvel at Pompeii.
00:21:45Pretend you're shocked.
00:21:46Ancient people had plumbing.
00:21:48The final stop, Harry.
00:21:51The ultimate city of romance.
00:21:53And, naturally, Woody Allen's favourite city outside of New York.
00:21:59That's...word for word.
00:22:03I told you.
00:22:04I've done this tour so many times, I could run it.
00:22:07Okay, but still, it's Europe.
00:22:09Most people would kill for that chance.
00:22:11Most people haven't had their phones stolen in Paris.
00:22:14Twice.
00:22:15Also, I hate the accommodations.
00:22:18Aren't they all five-star hotels?
00:22:20Standard rooms in five-star hotels?
00:22:22No, thank you.
00:22:24Wow.
00:22:25Some were born in Rome, huh?
00:22:27Well, that's unfortunate.
00:22:28It's a very chaotic city.
00:22:30One word of advice?
00:22:31Shut up.
00:22:32That's two words.
00:22:35You're weird.
00:22:36You're loud.
00:22:37You're annoying.
00:22:38You're in my kitchen.
00:22:39You have three other kitchens.
00:22:40And I prefer this one.
00:22:42Just for today.
00:22:43Come back when you've got a shirt on.
00:22:45Come back with normal clothes on.
00:22:46You didn't have to come.
00:22:47Don't tell me what I have to do.
00:22:49After Charles, roads are flooded.
00:22:59Staff won't make it tonight.
00:23:00Will you be alright sorting dinner?
00:23:05I've got it sorted.
00:23:07You're dead!
00:23:08I'm tired.
00:23:09I'm tired.
00:23:10I'm tired.
00:23:11I'm tired.
00:23:12I'm tired.
00:23:13I'm tired.
00:23:14I'm tired.
00:23:15Oh no, no, no, no.
00:23:18Ugh, Jesus!
00:23:19What are you doing?!
00:23:20Relax.
00:23:21I'm here to make a deal.
00:23:24What deal?
00:23:25You nearly gave me a heart attack.
00:23:27You'll survive.

00:30:51Um, who are you?
00:30:57What are you doing here?
00:30:59Well, 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?
00:31:06When 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.
00:31:44Where 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.
00:31:59Wait.
00:32:16Where are you going?
00:32:17You still owe me breakfast.
00:32:19You only paid for dinner.
00:32:21I have homework.
00:32:22Goodbye.
00:32:23Your little toy has quite the temper.
00:32:28Serena, can you please just stop?
00:32:30What?
00:32:31Teasing the help?
00:32:38That's her.
00:32:39That's the one from Kenwood's house.
00:32:42Was she like, the maid or something?
00:32:44Oh my god, what's wrong with people?
00:33:02They're saying you live with Charles.
00:33:04Oh, and Serena.
00:33:05What about her?
00:33:06Well, apparently she told everyone you were caught sneaking into his room.
00:33:10Of course she did.
00:33:14Careful, Alice.
00:33:15You're starting to look desperate.
00:33:24Careful, Alice.
00:33:25You're starting to look desperate.
00:33:40Come to the music room.
00:33:43Urgent.
00:33:44I just remembered.
00:33:45I need to check something.
00:33:46You guys go ahead.
00:33:47Yeah.
00:33:48Okay.
00:33:55Hello?
00:33:56Is someone there?
00:33:57Seriously!
00:33:58This is getting old!
00:34:00Wait.
00:34:13Music room?
00:34:14What?
00:34:16James?
00:34:17Is anybody in here earlier?
00:34:19Just Miss Serena.
00:34:20Said she was waiting for you.
00:34:23Sir?
00:34:25Sir, it's raining!
00:34:30Come on, Alice.
00:34:31You're fine.
00:34:32You're not that girl again.
00:34:33Wait, can you remind me one more time?
00:34:51Okay.
00:34:52Rooks move in straight lines.
00:34:54Yeah.
00:34:55Bishops move diagonally.
00:34:57And knights...
00:34:58The knight's the weird one.
00:35:04Rooks.
00:35:06Straight lines.
00:35:08Bishops.
00:35:10Diagonally.
00:35:11Hello?
00:35:12Hello?
00:35:32The text...
00:35:34Are you okay?
00:35:35Are you hurt?
00:35:36I...
00:35:37I...
00:35:38I'm okay.
00:35:39I...
00:35:40I saw the text and I thought...
00:35:41I...
00:35:42I didn't see the message.
00:35:43Serena took my phone.
00:35:44I...
00:35:45I didn't know.
00:35:46I'm sorry.
00:35:47I'm...
00:35:48Okay.
00:35:49You're gonna catch a cold.
00:35:50You're freezing.
00:35:51You didn't have to come.
00:35:54Don't tell me what I have to do.
00:35:57There's the hope that feels like home.
00:36:19That wasn't a mistake.
00:36:20If that's what you're about to say.
00:36:23I...
00:36:24Wasn't going to.
00:36:27You're really bad at this, you know.
00:36:40What?
00:36:41Kissing?
00:36:42Hiding feelings.
00:36:43Oh, I...
00:36:57Dump those Ewok pyjamas.
00:36:58Oh, you wish.
00:36:59Seriously.
00:37:00It's a cock block.
00:37:01You...
00:37:02Kissed...
00:37:03Me.
00:37:04That's basically...
00:37:05Consent...
00:37:06To...
00:37:07Everything.
00:37:08Dangerous words, Keaton.
00:37:09I might hold you to that.
00:37:10You'll be working in pairs on your comparative essays.
00:37:11You'll be working in pairs on your comparative essays.
00:37:12The list is on the board.
00:37:13The list is on the board.
00:37:14You'll be working in pairs on your comparative essays.
00:37:15The list is on the board.
00:37:16One...
00:37:17Two...
00:37:18Three...
00:37:19Four...
00:37:20One...
00:37:21Two...
00:37:22Three...
00:37:23Four...
00:37:24Dangerous words, Keaton. I might hold you to that.
00:37:37You'll be working in pairs on your comparative essays.
00:37:40The list is on the board.
00:37:48Are you okay?
00:37:54That's where I'll see your face and have you with me.
00:38:04It may seem dark, but you always like my spark in my heart since the start.
00:38:19You're welcome.
00:38:20They'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, they all just let me down.
00:38:39But baby, you saved me.
00:38:42Until I'm brand new.
00:38:45Everything's so different now.
00:38:49So, the night goes in an L shape, right?
00:38:53Why is that the only one you remember?
00:38:55Because it's weird.
00:38:57And I like weird.
00:38:59You're cheating.
00:39:00I'm winning.
00:39:01There's a difference.
00:39:02You are very distracting.
00:39:03And you like it.
00:39:05Charles!
00:39:06We need to talk.
00:39:07You've got a sense of feeling.
00:39:08You're cheating.
00:39:09I'm winning.
00:39:10There's a difference.
00:39:11You are very distracting.
00:39:13And you like it.
00:39:14Charles!
00:39:15There's a difference. You are very distracting and you like it
00:39:30Charles! We need to talk
00:39:33I expected poor judgment, but this in my house? It isn't what it looks like. Nope. Kissing a servant's daughter in the family library. Enlighten me then, Charles. We came back tonight after speaking with Serena. Imagine our surprise walking in on this. She isn't just- You have no right to barge in.
00:40:03On my property.
00:40:08I care about her. I'm not ashamed of that. That's enough.
00:40:14Why do you care? We're protecting our son's future and our name. You think this protects me? You think she does not belong in your world?
00:40:28Then maybe I don't either.
00:40:30You'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. Do 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. You shouldn't disobey your father.
00:41:04Pelton. It's Frederick Kenwood.
00:41:07Ah, Mr. Kenwood. How can I help?
00:41:10If a scholarship student were to violate our behavioral code in a public setting with photographic evidence, would that warrant a review?
00:41:19Yes, sir.
00:41:24So, answer me again. Do you think she's ready to lose everything just to be with you?
00:41:30I don't think she's ready to lose everything just to be with you.
00:41:41Charles, 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.
00:41:51What?
00:41:51My parents fired your mother. She's leaving. So are you.
00:41:57Wait, what? Why? Is it because of us? We can fix this. I'll get a job.
00:42:02Stop, stop it. You don't get it. If I don't walk away from this, they'll cut me off. Okay?
00:42:09No card. No trust. No support. Nothing.
00:42:14Then, then we'll figure it out. We don't need all that.
00:42:18Do you really think I'm going to live like that?
00:42:24So that's what this was? Just fun until it got inconvenient.
00:42:30What did they promise you?
00:42:35Nothing.
00:42:38They just reminded me of what's real.
00:42:44Charles, I'm not stupid.
00:42:45You 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.
00:43:07You'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.
00:43:21And something I picked up for a moment of fun.
00:43:30Don't do this, Charles.
00:43:32You don't mean it.
00:43:32It was fun.
00:43:35But you?
00:43:37You don't compare to what I own.
00:43:41I'll survive the loss.
00:43:42Right.
00:43:47I should have known.
00:43:50Guys 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.
00:44:10Go to sleep, Alice.
00:44:12This fall is a little more than I expected.
00:44:18In so deep, I can barely see myself.
00:44:24Yeah, around me feels so heavy but depleted.
00:44:30But I find this the place to test myself.
00:44:40Oh, sorry.
00:45:01Didn't see that.
00:45:02Then again, nobody does.
00:45:05Move, please.
00:45:08Try begging.
00:45:14You 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.
00:45:30Walk away, Serena.
00:45:51Last week's group assignments were mostly forgettable.
00:45:54But one pair surprised me in a good way.
00:45:58Charles Kenwood and Alice Keaton.
00:46:01Would you mind giving us a short summary?
00:46:04She loves the sound of her own voice.
00:46:06Better have it.
00:46:06I couldn't stay.
00:46:14Our essay explored what happens when two fundamentally different voices meet.
00:46:20Like logic and chaos, or silence and noise.
00:46:24Different worlds, different rules.
00:46:26At first glance, they clash.
00:46:31But what makes the story interesting is what happens next.
00:46:34Confusion.
00:46:35Curiosity.
00:46:37But in the end, some stories aren't about staying.
00:46:40And yes, there is no such thing as a happy ending.
00:46:52And yes, there is no such thing as a happy ending.
00:46:56Is she still talking about the essay?
00:47:01Miss Keaton?
00:47:04Dramatic as always.
00:47:05All right.
00:47:06Thank you, Alice.
00:47:07That was layered.
00:47:11Are you okay?
00:47:12A reminder that good literature always stirs something.
00:47:19Hello?
00:47:20Hi, here's Alice Keaton.
00:47:21This is Whitmore Press.
00:47:22We've been following your work.
00:47:23We'd like to offer you a long-term publishing contract.
00:47:26Name your price.
00:47:27We'll make it work.
00:47:28Sorry, what?
00:47:29That's kind of insane.
00:47:36Who's behind this?
00:47:37Your sponsor wishes to remain anonymous.
00:47:39Can...
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 whether it's not a person.
00:47:55I'd really like to meet them.
00:47:57I'm sorry, Miss Keaton.
00:47:58They were very soon.
00:47:59And they're the most generous offer we've ever given an interview right now.
00:48:03I see.
00:48:04Congratulations again.
00:48:10You got the interview.
00:48:10It's just an interview.
00:48:11I haven't gotten in yet.
00:48:13Still, Alice Keaton at Oxford.
00:48:16That's iconic.
00:48:16For your love, I'll be gone by one day.
00:48:25You okay?
00:48:27Yeah.
00:48:27I'm so excited!
00:48:42It's done, Mr. Kenwood.
00:48:44Miss Keaton signed the contract.
00:48:47Good.
00:48:48It's a generous deal.
00:48:49You sure you don't want her to know?
00:48:52No.
00:48:54No, it's better if I stay out of her life.
00:49:05Congratulations, Alice Keaton.
00:49:08Go live the life you were always meant to.
00:49:14Your engagement and announcement should align perfectly with the Foundation Gala.
00:49:21And the Browns already offered to host the London reception.
00:49:26It's all coming together beautifully.
00:49:31I've lost my appetite.
00:49:32I'll go check on him.
00:49:42What's your problem, Charles?
00:49:47This engagement is not happening.
00:49:50It's not up to you.
00:49:51You know that.
00:49:52Serena, we're not doing this.
00:49:53You've changed.
00:49:59Or maybe I finally just stopped pretending.
00:50:05It's not up to you.
00:50:06That's my purpose.
00:50:07What's your problem?
00:50:07No.
00:50:09No.
00:50:09No.
00:50:09No.
00:50:10No.
00:50:10No.
00:50:10No.
00:50:11No.
00:50:12No.
00:50:12Tals! You're the sponsor! You've been funding Alice Keaton this whole time!
00:50:37So?
00:50:38You lied to everyone, including her!
00:50:41I protected her.
00:50:45You loved her!
00:50:47Still do.
00:50:49Let it go, Serena. There's no point.
00:51:02I need a favour. Find out when the Oxford interview is.
00:51:06And make sure Alice Keaton won't show up.
00:51:10Anything? No?
00:51:16She's not answering. The interview's almost over.
00:51:19Well, she won't just not show up. Something's wrong.
00:51:24Where's Alice? When was the last time you heard from her?
00:51:27Last night. She said she was prepping all evening.
00:51:34James, track someone for me.
00:51:38Wait! Where are you going?
00:51:39Where are you going?
00:51:47Chill, okay? It won't hurt you.
00:51:50Yeah, we're just supposed to keep you away from the interview. That's it.
00:51:53That's it.
00:52:02Shit! Come back!
00:52:03I'm sorry.
00:52:04Fuck!
00:52:05Fuck!
00:52:06Fuck!
00:52:07Fuck!
00:52:14Fuck!
00:52:15Fuck!
00:52:16I remember how I met, didn't need a second guess.
00:52:37Hey, hey, hey, Alex, Alex?
00:52:42Alex, stay with me, stay with me, stay with me, Alex.
00:52:53You're awake?
00:52:55Where, where am I?
00:52:57A local clinic. Passerby brought you in.
00:53:00Passerby?
00:53:02He found you on the side of the road.
00:53:04He had to leave, he didn't leave a name.
00:53:07Oh.
00:53:10The interview, what time is it?
00:53:12Easy, it's okay.
00:53:14Someone already contacted the university,
00:53:16and sent in your writing samples.
00:53:18They've rescheduled your interview for tomorrow.
00:53:20Wait, what, who?
00:53:22No idea, but it's all taken care of.
00:53:27What did you say?
00:53:29Nothing.
00:53:30I just...
00:53:32had a dream.
00:53:34I got him!
00:53:44Oh, I knew it!
00:53:46Oh, too bad Charles isn't here to watch you crush it.
00:53:51He's not here.
00:53:52Oh, you didn't know?
00:53:53Know what?
00:53:54He left.
00:53:55A few days ago, yeah.
00:53:56Everyone doesn't really know where he went.
00:53:57Honestly, Astra's been quieter without him.
00:53:58It's probably for the best.
00:53:59Come on.
00:54:00Alice?
00:54:01The summer I met Charles Kenwood was loud.
00:54:07Chaotic.
00:54:08Unexpected.
00:54:09And with his absence...
00:54:10Come on!
00:54:11Come on!
00:54:12It ended quietly.
00:54:13Like summers always do.
00:54:14Like summers always do.
00:54:15Did you feel alive?
00:54:16No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:54:18The summer I met Charles Kenwood was loud.
00:54:21Chaotic.
00:54:22Unexpected.
00:54:23And with his absence...
00:54:24Come on!
00:54:25It ended quietly.
00:54:26Like summers always do.
00:54:27Did you feel it from across the room?
00:54:42Did you feel a little ancient too?
00:54:49And joining us today, the decade's most unexpected literary phenomenon, Alice Keaton.
00:54:55Thank you for having me.
00:54:57Now, your words moved millions.
00:54:59They say your stories feel real, especially 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 has been just writing and working, not 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, you write love like someone who's lived it.
00:55:28If you're so real.
00:55:30Because once, I did.
00:55:31That's why today we're here sharing the story behind Alice Keaton's love.
00:55:35And no one ever quite matched the light after that.
00:55:38And let's give it up for Alice Keaton one more time.
00:55:48Congratulations, Alice.
00:55:54The numbers just came in.
00:55:55You broke your own record.
00:55:57That's incredible.
00:56:00We're thinking celebration, press, photos, maybe tonight.
00:56:04Actually, there's something I'd rather do.
00:56:06Well, I'd like to meet with the person who believed 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.
00:57:16I 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, so...
00:57:35No.
00:57:35No, you've...
00:57:37You earned everything.
00:57:41Every word.
00:57:43Every page.
00:57:46Every 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.
00:57:55Charles.
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?
00:58:17I kind of had that rich asshole with a conscience energy.
00:58:21Very on brand.
00:58:23I 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 god I know who uses wiles unironically.
00:58:34You've changed.
00:58:38You've changed.
00:58:40But...
00:58:40Not really.
00:58:43You haven't changed.
00:58:46But maybe you've grown into who you really were.
00:58:49Anyway.
00:58:52I wanted to say...
00:58:57And...
00:58:58Thanks for being here tonight.
00:59:00You didn't have to come.
00:59:02Don't tell me what I have to do.
00:59:07You didn't have to come.
00:59:09Don't tell me what I have to do.
00:59:19If you could go back, if you had the chance to do it all again, would you do anything differently?
00:59:42No.
00:59:47No.
00:59:49I see.
00:59:56I know my answer now.
00:59:57I 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.
01:00:15Without a word.
01:00:19If you had the chance to see the world without me weighing you down.
01:00:23If you still chose me after that.
01:00:25You keep saying you wanted to give me a choice.
01:00:32But you made a choice for me.
01:00:34Did it ever cross your mind that maybe I would have chosen you anyway?
01:00:44I didn't think I was the smart choice.
01:00:50You weren't.
01:00:52But I never claimed to be that smart.
01:00:56I don't think I was the smart choice.
01:00:57I don't know.
01:00:57I don't know.
01:00:58I don't know.
01:01:01I don't know.
01:01:01I don't know.
01:01:01This is me.
01:01:06Right.
01:01:14I'm still mad at you, you know.
01:01:18I'm still in love with you, you know.
01:01:28Do 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.
01:01:41You 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.
01:01:49It's almost like you say, where's things going to go?
01:02:03Stop 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.
01:02:19You'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.
01:02:36I still can't believe this is happening.
01:02:44I told you, they're either worst enemies or secretly married.
01:02:47And I told you, they're both.
01:02:48I vow to always tell you the truth.
01:03:18Except for when you ask 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 over at sarcasm.
01:03:45I vow to argue with you at least twice a week.
01:03:47Especially over Shakespeare.
01:03:50I vow to write you into every story.
01:03:53Even when I say I didn't.
01:03:55You will always be a 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.
01:04:02For the rest of life.
01:04:06For the rest of life.
01:04:08For the rest of life.
01:04:10For the rest of life.
01:04:11I can't believe you picked Paris.
01:04:27It's such 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 that on our honeymoon.
01:04:43Please, Alice, go change.
01:04:45Don't tell me what I have to do.
01:04:51No.
01:04:51No, no, no, no, no.
01:04:53That is not an invitation to...
01:04:55Do not take off these clothes.
01:04:56I'm overroared.
01:04:58You look much better without them.
01:05:03To the ones who loved in silence, in chaos, in chapters,
01:05:10you will find your way home.
01:05:12Sometimes I want to be on my own.
01:05:18But I don't want to die alone.
01:05:21God.
01:05:31Oopsie.
01:05:34My king.
01:05:37Okay.
01:05:39Okay.
01:05:39Okay.
01:05:42It's up to us to make sure that we can gain what's been passed through these books, help
01:05:53us develop, learn, and grow.
