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

00:49:59we had a deal
00:50:01from the start
00:50:02what deal
00:50:03he knew someone powerful in the family was working against him
00:50:06he needed to bait the snake out
00:50:08so i played my part
00:50:09the backstabbing ex
00:50:11the dramatic entrance
00:50:12the betrayal
00:50:13all of it
00:50:14why didn't you two just tell me
00:50:16because if you knew you wouldn't have reacted like you did

00:50:25don't tell me to run
00:50:26you know i won't leave him
00:50:28yeah
00:50:30i figured you'd say that

00:50:42unusual way

00:51:05guess that's why you love her
00:51:06anyway i don't trust helen
00:51:11she's playing her own game

00:51:14one of my men said they saw helen's maid slipping something into simon's tea earlier
00:51:19wait
00:51:19she poisoned simon
00:51:21yeah
00:51:22helen's never really been one of us
00:51:24her marriage to simon's always just been about power
00:51:27so what now

00:52:45his ex and his daughter went missing during the crossfire

00:53:02she's the true heiress
00:53:08and i will be damned
