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. I needed the money to pay for my little brother's
00:00:11heart surgery. I couldn't say no. So I moved into his mansion and slowly I got to know him.
00:00:19His likes, his dislikes, his smile, those lips. The man behind the six foot five perfect body,
00:00:26the heart he liked to pretend he didn't have. And eventually I started to realize I wanted this
00:00:34baby and the strange little family we'd become. I wanted him. But my year with Gideon Maslow was
00:00:41coming to an end. Was it possible he felt the same way?
00:00:56Why won't you tell me who that woman is?
00:01:25Because I don't want to talk about other women.
00:01:32What does that mean?
00:01:38It means I only want to think about you.
00:01:46My little dumb.
00:01:55So you're interested in becoming a surrogate?
00:02:14Well, I can't think of anything more fulfilling than bringing new life into this world.
00:02:19That's beautiful, sweetheart. Did you bring everything I asked for?
00:02:23Oh, yes. Medical records, blood work, it's all there.
00:02:29Everything seems to be in order. You're young, you're healthy. I can already think of several
00:02:35clients who would love you.
00:02:36Oh, that's great. It's a huge relief, honestly.
00:02:39Oh, but, honey, wait. Your medical records are missing the details of your previous birth.
00:02:45Previous birth?
00:02:47To be a surrogate, you need to have given birth before. It was in the literature we sent over.
00:02:52No, please.
00:02:53Perhaps you can consider egg donation.
00:02:55That doesn't pay enough.
00:02:57Oh, sweetheart, egg donation is still a beautiful way to help bring new life into the world.
00:03:02Let me get you a pamphlet.
00:03:03Let me get you.
00:03:33Hey, cutie.
00:03:35Hey.
00:03:37Oh, no, don't get up.
00:03:38It's fine.
00:03:39How are you feeling?
00:03:41Well, I can't live like this much longer.
00:03:43Come on, don't say that.
00:03:44I'm supposed to start college in three months.
00:03:47And instead, I'm here, rotting, on a couch.
00:03:51You just have to take things easy until we...
00:03:53I know, I know.
00:03:53By the way, um, have you ever heard of someone named Gideon Maslow?
00:04:03Yeah, of course.
00:04:05He's the CEO of Maslow Enterprises.
00:04:07He's a billionaire.
00:04:09Why?
00:04:09I just saw the name somewhere.
00:04:17Who is this?
00:04:19Hi, uh, this is Alice Gardner.
00:04:21The Parkside Surrogacy Agency referred me.
00:04:25Okay.
00:04:25I'm here to help you have a baby.
00:04:28They were supposed to send me a selection of women to choose from.
00:04:32Well, the agency is confident that I'm the best choice.
00:04:35Well, I can't speak about this now.
00:04:37My house tomorrow.
00:04:38I'll send a car.
00:04:39Sure, I'll text you right now.
00:04:42I'll text you right now.
00:05:09Can I help you?
00:05:12Hi, yes, I'm here to see Mr. Maslow.
00:05:15I have an appointment.
00:05:16Oh, you must be Miss Gardner.
00:05:18Sorry, I thought you were selling something.
00:05:21What would I be selling?
00:05:23I wasn't sure.
00:05:25Ill-fitting jackets.
00:05:31Alice, I see you met my house manager, Helga.
00:05:39Follow me.
00:05:49Sign.
00:05:54What is it?
00:05:56It's a non-disclosure agreement.
00:05:59Guys usually offer to buy me a drink first.
00:06:03Anything that I say in this meeting will not be repeated,
00:06:06or else I will unleash a legal firestorm on your ass,
00:06:11the likes of which you couldn't even imagine.
00:06:14Your lawyers are going to need lawyers,
00:06:16and their lawyers are going to need lawyers.
00:06:18Okay, jeez, I get it.
00:06:23Could have just asked me to pinky promise.
00:06:25I take those very seriously.
00:06:28All right.
00:06:28Let's get down to business.
00:06:31I need a surrogate of sorts.
00:06:36Of sorts?
00:06:37My proposition is a bit unconventional.
00:06:41I need to hire someone to marry me
00:06:43and give birth to my heir.
00:06:48I'm sorry.
00:06:50What?
00:06:50Oh, you're one of those billionaires.
00:06:56Freaky psychopath.
00:06:58Well, the marriage would be a temporary situation.
00:07:00After the birth of my son.
00:07:02Your son?
00:07:03Or whatever.
00:07:04After the birth of my heir.
00:07:06We'll divorce.
00:07:07You'll retain visitation rights.
00:07:10But the marriage has to appear real for at least one year.
00:07:13Why?
00:07:14If I want my heir to eventually take over the company,
00:07:17he has to maintain my family's pristine reputation.
00:07:22See, the community would never accept a bastard.
00:07:25I don't get it.
00:07:26You have money and a nice face and a great body,
00:07:30and you are tall.
00:07:31Like, how tall are you?
00:07:34Why can't you just find a real wife?
00:07:37I don't get out much.
00:07:39I enjoy the solitude.
00:07:41And enjoy paying people to have sex with you?
00:07:43Who said anything about sex?
00:07:45I know how husbands and wives make babies.
00:07:48No, we would take the medical approach.
00:07:51This is a business proposition, not a romantic one.
00:07:55These days, marriages, they're all financial relationships anyways.
00:08:00We would just be settling ours up front.
00:08:05I'm sorry.
00:08:06I can't do this.
00:08:07I agreed to have a child for you,
00:08:10not to have a child with you.
00:08:1210 million dollars.
00:08:2210?
00:08:2410 million dollars?
00:08:2710 million dollars.
00:08:29Okay.
00:08:30Okay, I'll do it.
00:08:32Well, you can take your time and think.
00:08:34No, it's all right.
00:08:35Where do I sign?
00:08:36No, slow down, Alice.
00:08:38I still have to think about it.
00:08:40You're the first woman that I interviewed for the position.
00:08:42Well, look no further.
00:08:43You've found me, Mrs. Gideon Maslow.
00:08:48You really like to send all that money, don't you?
00:08:51No, I don't like it.
00:08:53I need it.
00:08:54My brother has a hole in his heart.
00:09:00He needs surgery, and the longer we wait,
00:09:02the less chance he has at making a full recovery.
00:09:05So why don't you ask your parents for the money?
00:09:08It's not an option.
00:09:11Look, I'll be the best fake wife you've ever had, okay?
00:09:16Please?
00:09:16Please?
00:09:22Please?
00:09:24All right.
00:09:26We'll call it highly motivated.
00:09:28I like that in a business partner.
00:09:31You're hired.
00:09:37I promise you, it's all quite standard.
00:09:39Hmm, yes, quite.
00:09:42It says here that I don't get the money until the baby is born.
00:09:45Yes, but I will front the cost of Nico's surgery,
00:09:49and all your day-to-day expenses will be taken care of.
00:09:52I have to live with you?
00:09:53I told you, the relationship has to appear real.
00:09:59Well, then Nico needs to live here, too.
00:10:01My brother can't be alone.
00:10:05All right.
00:10:12Now what?
00:10:13Why aren't you signing?
00:10:15I want you to meet him first.
00:10:16I'll send a car.
00:10:18No, no, I can't have him leave the house.
00:10:19Is he a kid or is he a dog?
00:10:23He's sick, Gideon.
00:10:25All right, well, I don't leave the estate.
00:10:26So if you want me to meet him, you'll bring him here.
00:10:31Alice has told me a lot about you.
00:10:33You're lucky.
00:10:34She just told me she was dating you.
00:10:37Well, everything that I do has a way of ending up in the press,
00:10:40so I asked her to keep our romance quiet, I hope.
00:10:44Well, I hope you can forgive me.
00:10:46Yeah, I think I can forgive anyone with a house this big.
00:10:49Don't get too excited, your heart.
00:10:51Karen, what are you doing here?
00:11:01Can't drop in to surprise my big brother?
00:11:04No, it's not a good time.
00:11:06I have guests.
00:11:08How was I supposed to know you've never had a guest?
00:11:12That's not true, Alice.
00:11:14This is my very funny brother, Karen.
00:11:17It's good to meet you.
00:11:18Jenny.
00:11:19Hi.
00:11:19Hi.
00:11:21And, uh, you are?
00:11:24Oh, I'm, uh, his girlfriend.
00:11:31Oh.
00:11:34So you two have been dating how long?
00:11:38I don't think it's been so long.
00:11:42I'm pretty sure I mentioned Alice to you.
00:11:46Pretty sure you did.
00:11:47No, I'm pretty sure I have.
00:11:49Um, hey, how about we take a walk outside, take a walk around the grounds?
00:11:54It's a beautiful day today.
00:11:58Dang.
00:11:59But you think that, like, maybe there would be enough more?
00:12:03I think everyone buys it.
00:12:05Maybe even two more.
00:12:06Do Carrie and Jenny have kids?
00:12:08They've been trying for some years, but, I mean, it's a sensitive topic.
00:12:12It's hard to hear that.
00:12:13Somebody's got to carry on the Maslow name.
00:12:17I'll give him my best shot.
00:12:22Alice?
00:12:22No, I'm good.
00:12:24Nico?
00:12:24Uh, your brother!
00:12:28Nico, no!
00:12:28His pulse is steady.
00:12:40Nico, can you hear me?
00:12:42It's okay.
00:12:43Open your eyes.
00:12:44Breathe.
00:12:44Breathe.
00:12:45Breathe.
00:12:52Oh, my God.
00:12:56I am so sorry.
00:12:56I, I, I, I, I, I think I just got a little overexcited.
00:13:01You've got nothing to be sorry about.
00:13:03It's fine.
00:13:03I can keep walking.
00:13:04Absolutely not.
00:13:06We're going to the hospital.
00:13:08Aiden, you're going to be okay to drive?
00:13:09I told you he shouldn't have come here.
00:13:13Alice!
00:13:23It's good that he's getting some rest.
00:13:26What did the lab say?
00:13:29His condition is getting worse.
00:13:32We need to take a more aggressive approach with this treatment.
00:13:35He should stay in the hospital until he's strong enough for surgery.
00:13:40You want him to live here full time?
00:13:43We'll make sure that he's very comfortable.
00:13:44And you can visit him whenever you like.
00:13:51Have you been able to figure out a payment plan?
00:13:55I've brokered a deal with the devil.
00:13:58Just have to sign it.
00:13:59I thought I'd never see you again.
00:14:08Do you have a pen?
00:14:15Helga will be overseeing your transition into the house.
00:14:18Welcome to the Maslow Estate.
00:14:21Must be exciting.
00:14:23Our bedroom is over there.
00:14:26It's all very nice.
00:14:29I work long hours, so try to keep quiet.
00:14:32I'll be spending most days at the hospital with Nico anyways.
00:14:35Hey, what's in here?
00:14:44Hey, you can have your run of the house.
00:14:48But that room is completely off limits.
00:14:51You understand?
00:14:53I do.
00:14:54I do.
00:15:05Helga, help Alice get situated.
00:15:09I have to make a phone call.
00:15:10Of course, Mr. Maslow.
00:15:13Thanks for all your help.
00:15:15Of course, anything for Gideon.
00:15:18You must do a really great job as house manager.
00:15:21I mean, he never wants to leave this place.
00:15:25Gideon is a very complicated and brilliant man.
00:15:30I'm sure he is.
00:15:31I've stood by him through great joy and great sorrow.
00:15:36That's nice.
00:15:39And sorrowful.
00:15:42Please feel free to call on me for anything that you need.
00:15:45I'll be nearby.
00:15:46All the time.
00:15:48Keeping an eye on you.
00:16:03I thought you'd be asleep.
00:16:05Restless, I guess.
00:16:11So, how was your first day at the house?
00:16:16I don't think Helga likes me very much.
00:16:19You know, she's been with me for years.
00:16:21She's very loyal.
00:16:23Yeah, she mentioned something about that.
00:16:27You know, I don't know why women become so paranoid.
00:16:30You know, I think you need to get some sleep.
00:16:32Because stress is bad for baby making.
00:16:36Our appointment is tomorrow.
00:16:38Are you going to come with me?
00:16:39I sent my sample to the doctor already.
00:16:42So he's just going to insert it into you.
00:16:46How romantic.
00:16:47I love you.
00:16:52You know, I think you could see me very, rather.
00:16:53I hate you.
00:16:54I think you can feel like it's
00:17:08you know,
00:17:10and if you run away,
00:17:12I tell you,
00:17:13don't get leaps.
00:17:14So what do you think?
00:17:15I love you.
00:17:45I love you.
00:18:15I love you.
00:18:45I love you.
00:18:47I love you.
00:18:49I love you.
00:18:51I love you.
00:18:53You heard, Mr. Maslow.
00:18:55I love you.
00:19:03I love you.
00:19:11I love you.
00:19:13I love you.
00:19:14I love you.
00:19:15I love you.
00:19:17Oh, thank you.
00:19:19You know, I've become such a fast reader these last few weeks.
00:19:22See?
00:19:23Perks of taking it easy.
00:19:24Exactly.
00:19:25Who needs friends when you have your sister's old books?
00:19:27Ha.
00:19:28Funny.
00:19:29Funny.
00:19:30Really, I'm super proud of how seriously you're taking this recovery.
00:19:36Yeah, anything to get me back to real life faster.
00:19:39I hate to break it to you, buddy, but this is a lot more like real life than whatever you're
00:19:45missing over summer break.
00:19:47How is this real life?
00:19:49Having your priorities straight, compromising on joy because it's what you have to do.
00:19:54Doesn't get more real life than that, babe.
00:19:58Looking good, isn't he?
00:20:00You've done great work.
00:20:02Well, I take tips.
00:20:04I'm a little strapped for cash at the moment.
00:20:07Saving up for a big surgery.
00:20:09Speaking of, we were able to set a date.
00:20:13The nurse will go over everything with you, but we're looking pretty good.
00:20:18Nico's on the up and up.
00:20:32So Helga told me you went snooping.
00:20:39What a tattletale.
00:20:41I gave you access to every other room in the house.
00:20:44You couldn't respect my one wish?
00:20:45Have you ever heard the story of Bluebeard?
00:20:47Obviously not.
00:20:48Okay, well, it's a folk tale about a woman who marries an older man named Bluebeard.
00:20:53She moves in with him and he allows her access to every room in the house except for one.
00:20:58Sound familiar?
00:20:59So what?
00:21:00So, it turns out he had the corpses of six other wives stuffed in the room.
00:21:05You think I went through all this just to kill you?
00:21:09There's easier ways of doing that and much more fun ones.
00:21:13Well, when you tell me something is off limits, I'm gonna assume the worst.
00:21:17You are so stubborn.
00:21:19We did not disclose that in the contract before we signed it.
00:21:23Well, you're a secretive.
00:21:25You didn't mention that.
00:21:26And I don't think you're really 6'5".
00:21:28No, I'm 6'5".
00:21:31Come on, Gideon.
00:21:32You can trust me.
00:21:33Who is she?
00:21:34The woman in the painting.
00:21:37She's the reason why I won't trust you.
00:21:41Or any other woman for that matter.
00:21:43Any other woman for that matter.
00:22:13Why won't you tell me who that woman is?
00:22:18Because I don't want to talk about other women.
00:22:22What does that mean?
00:22:25What does that mean?
00:22:31It means...
00:22:34I only want to think about you.
00:22:39My little dove.
00:22:41the woman in the imagination of her.
00:22:44The woman in the background.
00:22:45Why is it...
00:22:46I'm sorry.
00:22:47I'm sorry.
00:22:51I'm sorry.
00:22:52I'm sorry.
00:22:54I don't want to think about you.
00:22:55What's that?
00:23:00Hey.
00:23:26Hello.
00:23:28Crazy how we live in the same house
00:23:30and I can still go days without seeing you.
00:23:32Big house.
00:23:34Gets lonely.
00:23:36Pancakes?
00:23:37Pancakes. Want some?
00:23:39No, I'm more of a waffle man.
00:23:41You know, there's more surface area for the syrup.
00:23:44Here, try one.
00:23:46It's good, I promise.
00:23:53It's my secret recipe.
00:23:58It's good, right?
00:24:06It's good. It's really good.
00:24:09You're not going to have it?
00:24:10No, I had the craziest craving for them this morning,
00:24:13but now my stomach feels a little weird.
00:24:16Alice.
00:24:18Hmm.
00:24:23You think?
00:24:24Do you have a test?
00:24:28What's it say?
00:24:38Negative.
00:24:39Damn.
00:24:41I really thought it would work.
00:24:42I'll get a better doctor.
00:24:44You know, maybe we need to do an egg retrieval first,
00:24:47create an embryo,
00:24:49and plant it back into you.
00:24:50That could take months.
00:24:52But you signed the contract.
00:24:53You knew you were in this for the long haul.
00:24:56Oh, I know.
00:24:57I'm just bummed that it didn't work.
00:25:01Oh.
00:25:02Yeah.
00:25:04No.
00:25:05Me too.
00:25:06You know,
00:25:19there are other ways I could get pregnant
00:25:21that involves less needles
00:25:23and plastic cups and hospital gowns.
00:25:27Oh, yeah?
00:25:29Birds do it.
00:25:30Bees do it.
00:25:31I mean,
00:25:33why can't we do it?
00:25:34No, Alice,
00:25:39I'm not paying you to have sex with me.
00:25:42I know,
00:25:42but you are paying me to have a child with you,
00:25:44and this could really increase our chances.
00:25:47No, Alice,
00:25:48sex,
00:25:49it complicates things.
00:25:50Of course it does,
00:25:51when feelings are involved.
00:25:53But we are two business partners with a goal,
00:25:56and
00:25:56sex could be the solution.
00:25:58aren't you a little bit curious?
00:26:03Yeah,
00:26:03I'm curious.
00:26:05I know you don't trust women,
00:26:07or whatever,
00:26:08but
00:26:08that doesn't mean you shouldn't have any pleasure.
00:26:13And you must find me a little attractive.
00:26:16I mean,
00:26:17you want your heir to have half of my genes.
00:26:19You sure that's what you really want to do?
00:26:24I'm sure.
00:26:30There's just one thing you should know.
00:26:32Yeah?
00:26:33What is it?
00:26:35I'm a virgin.
00:26:36What?
00:26:41How?
00:26:43Our parents died when I was 17.
00:26:45I didn't have time to date if I wasn't working or I was with Nico.
00:26:49So you haven't been on
00:26:50one date?
00:26:52Men have asked me out,
00:26:54yeah,
00:26:54but
00:26:54they didn't understand why I couldn't leave my brother,
00:26:57and
00:26:57I didn't want to bring strangers back to our apartment.
00:27:01Look,
00:27:01this is the first time in my life where I haven't been worried about money.
00:27:06About how I'm going to pay rent,
00:27:08how I'm going to pay Nico's next medical bill.
00:27:11For once in my life,
00:27:12I can finally think about what I might want.
00:27:16What I might
00:27:16desire.
00:27:19So you were going to have my baby,
00:27:21and you've never had sex before?
00:27:23I know.
00:27:24I'm a saint.
00:27:25The Virgin Mary.
00:27:31What?
00:27:31Does this void the deal?
00:27:32I should have told you.
00:27:37Yes.
00:27:38You should have told me.
00:27:42Where are you going?
00:27:46I, uh,
00:27:47I have to think.
00:27:50Hello,
00:27:57brother.
00:27:58It's unlike you to have me over on work day.
00:28:01I have a problem.
00:28:04Alice.
00:28:06Oh.
00:28:06The mystery girlfriend.
00:28:08Yeah,
00:28:08she's a,
00:28:09uh,
00:28:09uh,
00:28:10a virgin.
00:28:12There's a twist.
00:28:16I'm very surprised.
00:28:21She's quite pretty.
00:28:24It's just a little more responsibility
00:28:26than I was prepared for.
00:28:28I know it's been a while
00:28:30since you've
00:28:31been with anyone,
00:28:32but I'm sure you remember
00:28:33how to do it.
00:28:34In fact,
00:28:35if I remember correctly,
00:28:36Ginny Mills was a virgin,
00:28:37and he slept with her.
00:28:39So was I,
00:28:40and we were 16.
00:28:42Let's take it slow.
00:28:43Right?
00:28:44Come on.
00:28:45Let's wine and diner.
00:28:47Ah,
00:28:48Gideon.
00:28:52You're going to have to behave
00:28:53like a gentleman.
00:28:57What will you do?
00:29:07Hey,
00:29:07hey,
00:29:07hey,
00:29:08hey,
00:29:08what are you doing?
00:29:09No,
00:29:09I knew I shouldn't have told you.
00:29:11Just hold on a second.
00:29:12No,
00:29:12I should have known better.
00:29:14It's a mistake.
00:29:14Every time someone finds out,
00:29:16they look at me different,
00:29:16like,
00:29:17like I'm something fragile.
00:29:18They're afraid of breaking.
00:29:19No,
00:29:19hey,
00:29:20please don't tell me
00:29:21what's going on
00:29:22in my own mind.
00:29:23Look me in the eyes
00:29:25and tell me
00:29:25you didn't change
00:29:26your opinion of me.
00:29:27No,
00:29:28truthfully,
00:29:28I don't know.
00:29:29I don't know how I feel about it.
00:29:31I mean,
00:29:31it was certainly surprising.
00:29:32Bullshit.
00:29:34Alice,
00:29:35just slow down,
00:29:37okay?
00:29:38Is that fair?
00:29:45Fair?
00:29:49How about I take you
00:29:50for a drink?
00:29:50I thought you don't
00:29:53leave the house.
00:29:58Secret bar.
00:30:00Very James Bond.
00:30:04Yeah,
00:30:04I don't think
00:30:05it's such a
00:30:05bad thing.
00:30:08Not you being a virgin
00:30:09and all.
00:30:09I think that it
00:30:10points to
00:30:11some level
00:30:12of discipline.
00:30:14Can we talk about
00:30:15something else?
00:30:15It's been a while
00:30:18since I've been
00:30:19on a date.
00:30:20I'm a bit rusty.
00:30:23So what do you do
00:30:24locked away here
00:30:25all the time?
00:30:26Dress up in
00:30:27costumes
00:30:28and fight crime?
00:30:30Well,
00:30:31it helps to have
00:30:31a full bar
00:30:32next to the living room.
00:30:34So you really
00:30:35never leave?
00:30:37Never.
00:30:38Not even on a drive?
00:30:41Not even on a drive.
00:30:42Wild.
00:30:45There are benefits,
00:30:46though.
00:30:48Like?
00:30:51I don't normally
00:30:52tell people this,
00:30:53but I make
00:30:55the greatest
00:30:56martini
00:30:57in the entire world.
00:31:00Oh, yeah?
00:31:00Yeah.
00:31:02Prove it.
00:31:03Well, I'll give it to you.
00:31:21That is a damn
00:31:22good drink.
00:31:23Have you ever
00:31:24even had a martini?
00:31:26No.
00:31:27But I'm from Iowa,
00:31:29and we know drinking.
00:31:30Thank you,
00:31:32bartender.
00:31:35So what brings you
00:31:36to this bar
00:31:36so late at night?
00:31:41Oh, you know,
00:31:42I was supposed
00:31:43to meet someone here.
00:31:45Is he a good-looking guy?
00:31:48Well, he certainly
00:31:49seems to think so.
00:31:51You been working
00:31:52here long?
00:31:54No, I took it over
00:31:55for my father.
00:31:58Yeah?
00:32:00Yeah.
00:32:02I grew up
00:32:02in this house.
00:32:06God, I thought
00:32:07I told you that.
00:32:09No.
00:32:10But you don't
00:32:11really tell me anything.
00:32:14Well, when my parents
00:32:15died, I, um,
00:32:17I took over
00:32:17the estate.
00:32:19Are we sleeping
00:32:20in their bed?
00:32:22No.
00:32:22No.
00:32:23Absolutely not.
00:32:24Well, I mean,
00:32:24maybe the mattress bed.
00:32:26Oh.
00:32:26Very sexy.
00:32:28Oh, I didn't know
00:32:29how it's supposed
00:32:29to be sexy.
00:32:32Well, it would
00:32:32certainly help
00:32:33pass the time.
00:32:34Okay.
00:32:49No.
00:32:50No.
00:32:50No.
00:32:51How was that?
00:33:18It didn't pass much time.
00:33:48Are you sure you want this?
00:33:51I'm sure.
00:33:58There's no pressure.
00:33:59If you feel any kind of way, and if it hurts or anything...
00:34:01I can't think of anything.
00:34:02I'll follow you, Leigh.
00:34:08All right?
00:34:08You take control.
00:34:09Does that sound okay?
00:34:12I want you to take control.
00:34:14I want you to take control.
00:34:30Good morning.
00:34:36Oh, hey, good morning.
00:34:39You feeling okay?
00:34:41Yeah.
00:34:43That was good, right?
00:34:48Oh, yeah.
00:34:49It was really good.
00:34:53We could have another drink tonight.
00:34:56I actually forgot to tell you.
00:34:58We're going to have dinner with Karen and Jenny tonight.
00:35:00Dinner?
00:35:03Okay, but why?
00:35:06Well, I mean, we have to seem like a big, happy family.
00:35:09If we're getting divorced in a year, we don't have to appear that happy.
00:35:12Well, no, I mean, we can't have any cracks in our story.
00:35:15I love my brother, but I mean, he's got a loud mouth.
00:35:19And Jenny will say anything about everything.
00:35:21Well, then we better get our story straight.
00:35:23If we're going to get grilled, we should be on the same page.
00:35:26Sure, we could practice.
00:35:27I mean, our brother isn't exactly Columbo, and Jenny and Helga are harmless.
00:35:35Helga's coming?
00:35:36Yeah, she said she wanted to get to know you.
00:35:39She has it out for me.
00:35:40It's one night.
00:35:42We can get through one night.
00:35:43Soup's almost ready.
00:35:50Just another few minutes.
00:35:51Thank you, Helga.
00:35:55It's nice to get some face time with you, Alice.
00:35:58I've been wanting to get to know you better.
00:36:00Well, you know what they say?
00:36:02You don't know someone until you see them eat.
00:36:03How do you eat, Alice?
00:36:11You want me to spoil the surprise?
00:36:13I'll tell you how I eat.
00:36:16Until I'm full.
00:36:19Can attest to that.
00:36:21So tell us, how did you and Gideon meet?
00:36:23And the questions begin before you even have our appetizers.
00:36:26It'll be another few minutes.
00:36:29What were you saying, Gideon, about how you two met?
00:36:32Well, dear, would you like me to, or would you like to?
00:36:35Well, I just love the way you tell it.
00:36:37All right.
00:36:38Well, it's a very funny story, actually.
00:36:42We met at a charity event a few years ago,
00:36:44and then we happened to come across each other online a few months ago.
00:36:51What's funny about that?
00:36:52The way life works, sometimes.
00:36:56Well, honey, you forgot the funniest part
00:36:59about how later that night you accidentally tripped me.
00:37:02Oh, and then she dropped her champagne glass.
00:37:10What event was it?
00:37:12Hmm?
00:37:13What charity event was it?
00:37:20The one for the opera.
00:37:22I remember this.
00:37:24I literally remember Gideon telling me that he tripped someone.
00:37:28Don't you remember, Kieran?
00:37:29I told you about this.
00:37:30You know,
00:37:31I just don't remember you in our circle.
00:37:37You don't seem like the type.
00:37:41Why?
00:37:42Am I not high class enough?
00:37:44I didn't mean that.
00:37:46No, it's okay.
00:37:47I get it.
00:37:47I would be worried, too,
00:37:49if I thought someone was trying to take advantage of my family.
00:37:53I know you have a lot to protect,
00:37:55and I don't come from a home like this.
00:37:59So you're right.
00:38:00I can't prove to you that I'm not some gold digger.
00:38:03All I can do is promise you that Gideon and I,
00:38:06we know the truth,
00:38:10and we trust each other.
00:38:12You really are a special girl.
00:38:22I had my doubts, of course.
00:38:25I couldn't be sure of your intentions,
00:38:26especially with the way you walked in that first day.
00:38:29Like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
00:38:32You two moved in together so quick,
00:38:34I assumed that Gideon got you pregnant.
00:38:37You can imagine my relief
00:38:39when I saw the negative pregnancy test.
00:38:41Pregnancy test?
00:38:47Were you going through my trash?
00:38:50Of course not, Alice.
00:38:51Be reasonable.
00:38:53I was cleaning up the mess you made in your bathroom
00:38:55and didn't know what I was looking at
00:38:57until it was too late.
00:38:58Are you trying to get pregnant?
00:38:59Of course not, Kieran,
00:39:00but accidents happen.
00:39:01We are trying.
00:39:07Gideon, you don't think it's a little rushed?
00:39:10Of course it's rushed.
00:39:11No, it's not.
00:39:13And how is that?
00:39:14Because we...
00:39:17It's okay, you can tell if I'm Gideon.
00:39:22I asked him to keep it a surprise,
00:39:24but we're getting married.
00:39:27What?
00:39:28When is this happening?
00:39:32Um, next week.
00:39:38And you're sure this is something you want to do?
00:39:45I'm positive.
00:39:45Well, in that case,
00:39:52welcome to the family, Alice.
00:39:58Soup's on!
00:40:01I'm sorry.
00:40:02I told everyone we're getting married.
00:40:04I panicked.
00:40:05They were going to find out sooner or later.
00:40:07You know, now we need to pull together a quick wedding.
00:40:11Sounds easy enough.
00:40:12Oh, we got to get Nico cleared
00:40:15for a couple hours from the hospital.
00:40:17Why?
00:40:19Don't you want your brother there?
00:40:21How would that help the plan?
00:40:24No, I mean,
00:40:25don't you want your brother at the wedding?
00:40:29Now's not a good time.
00:40:31And besides,
00:40:33he'll be there when I get married for real one day.
00:40:34Yeah, no, that's, that's fine.
00:40:39Um,
00:40:40I got to get,
00:40:41I can get, uh, prepared.
00:40:42Um,
00:40:44you got to get a dress.
00:40:54I almost forgot.
00:40:55Need help?
00:41:14I think I got it.
00:41:16Please, let me help.
00:41:18It's what I'm here for.
00:41:22Are you nervous?
00:41:23Why would I be nervous?
00:41:26It's your wedding day.
00:41:28Right.
00:41:30I'm actually fine.
00:41:31Gideon's a great guy.
00:41:33I'm aware.
00:41:35I just mean there's nothing to be nervous about.
00:41:38I'm happy for you.
00:41:40Both of you.
00:41:41But especially you.
00:41:43What an amazing accomplishment.
00:41:46You should take your seat.
00:41:47The ceremony's starting soon,
00:41:49and I want to make sure you have a great view.
00:41:51It's bad luck to see each other before the wedding.
00:42:11I know.
00:42:12I think I can afford it.
00:42:13Why's that?
00:42:16Hold on one second.
00:42:17I've got a surprise for you.
00:42:24Congratulations.
00:42:28What are you doing here?
00:42:30It's your big day.
00:42:31We thought we'd surprise you.
00:42:33We?
00:42:33Me and Gideon.
00:42:37Hey.
00:42:37Hey.
00:42:38Hey.
00:42:42Think about how happy mom and dad would be to see us right now.
00:42:46Two orphans all grown up.
00:42:48Why did you get so old?
00:42:56We both got old way too young.
00:42:59I love that you're here.
00:43:01Okay, but nothing is worth risking your health.
00:43:05You're all I got, you know that?
00:43:09Not anymore.
00:43:10You're sure you're okay to sit through the whole ceremony?
00:43:17Oh, yeah.
00:43:17Definitely good enough to have a few drinks later.
00:43:19Let's get you wifed.
00:43:24Do you, Alice,
00:43:26take Gideon to be your lawfully wedded husband,
00:43:28promising to love and cherish
00:43:30through joy and sorrow,
00:43:32through sickness and health,
00:43:33and whatever challenges you may face
00:43:34as long as you both shall live?
00:43:36I do.
00:43:41And do you, Gideon,
00:43:43take Alice to be your lawfully wedded wife,
00:43:45promising to love and cherish
00:43:47through joy and sorrow,
00:43:48sickness and health,
00:43:49and whatever challenges you may face
00:43:50as long as you both shall live?
00:43:53I do.
00:43:55Would you please exchange rings?
00:43:57I do.
00:44:06By the power vested in me,
00:44:17I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:44:20You may kiss the bride.
00:44:20You may kiss the bride.

00:44:33You may kiss the bride.
00:44:34You may kiss the bride.
00:44:34You may kiss the bride.
00:44:35You may kiss the bride.
00:44:35God, you are so beautiful.
00:44:57You have no idea how mad I am at you.
00:45:05You were incredible today.
00:45:18Have you ever even heard of a boundary?
00:45:22I've closed nine-figure deals on seven continents.
00:45:26Of course I've heard of boundaries.
00:45:28I just, I don't know, I thought you'd be more appreciative.
00:45:33How?
00:45:33You totally ignored what I said.
00:45:36Because it wasn't what you wanted.
00:45:38What I want is for Nico to be healthy for his surgery.
00:45:41You jeopardized his health.
00:45:43Do you know how big of a violation that is?
00:45:45It's fine.
00:45:47Kieran is driving him back as we speak.
00:45:49He's going to get plenty of rest for his procedure tomorrow.
00:45:51You're not his father.
00:45:52You're not his mother.
00:45:58Alice.
00:45:59No, I don't want to see you.
00:46:00I'm moving to another room to tell Helga whatever you want.
00:46:06Tell her we're fighting.
00:46:07No, Alice.
00:46:08Today's the day.
00:46:23First day of the rest of my life.
00:46:26Or the last.
00:46:27We'll see.
00:46:28God, I hate when you say stuff like that.
00:46:30I'm just joking.
00:46:31Relax.
00:46:33It'll be fine.
00:46:34So where's your husband?
00:46:38You know, he doesn't leave the house much.
00:46:41Or at all, apparently.
00:46:43I was hoping he'd be with you.
00:46:47Well, don't worry about me.
00:46:49The doctor is going to take you to the operating room soon.
00:46:51And I will be here the whole time.
00:46:53I know you will be.
00:46:54I know you will be here the whole time.
00:47:24He's getting stuffy in there.
00:47:28What are you doing here?
00:47:30I just, I really want to be here with you.
00:47:51I'm a nervous wreck.
00:47:53He's going to be fine.
00:47:54You want to know how I know?
00:47:57How?
00:47:59Because I think he promised.
00:48:04I take these so seriously.
00:48:05Alice?
00:48:21Alice?
00:48:24Yes?
00:48:25How is Eve?
00:48:30Nico's surgery was a huge success.
00:48:32They'll bring him in here in just a moment.
00:48:35Okay.
00:48:35Okay.
00:48:37So everything went well?
00:48:38Better than we could have hoped for.
00:48:40We'll keep him for two more days, and then he'll be free to go home.
00:48:44Two days?
00:48:45Is that enough time?
00:48:47I mean, I want him to have around-the-clock medical care.
00:48:49I mean, what if there are complications?
00:48:51We don't foresee any complications.
00:48:54Money's not going to be a concern.
00:48:55Whatever it takes is fine.
00:48:57Money's not a concern for us either.
00:48:59The thing is, I don't think he needs to be here any longer.
00:49:03He'll make a speedy recovery.
00:49:04I don't think he needs to be here any longer.
00:49:34Gideon?
00:49:38Gideon?
00:49:54What are you doing?
00:49:55What are you doing?
00:49:55What are you doing?
00:49:57I want this to be Nico's room.
00:50:08You don't have to do that.
00:50:10It's a big house.
00:50:11There are plenty of rooms.
00:50:12No.
00:50:14I'm ready to move on.
00:50:16To start over.
00:50:19Are you ready to tell me about her?
00:50:21Krista, she was quite the artist.
00:50:33Very famous.
00:50:34I'm sure you've heard of her.
00:50:36I'm absolutely sure I haven't.
00:50:40What happened between you two?
00:50:42She lied.
00:50:43She knew I wanted an heir.
00:50:45She had me fall in love with her.
00:50:49All the while knowing that she didn't want to become a mother.
00:50:54Women have always lied.
00:50:57Even when I was a kid, they would lie.
00:51:01Just to come to see my house.
00:51:03And then as we grew up, it became more about the gifts and the vacations.
00:51:07And my point is, I'm used to it.
00:51:12What made her different?
00:51:16She really had me fooled.
00:51:22You know I had to pay her off just to never see her again?
00:51:27I was so angry.
00:51:32I didn't want to see anyone.
00:51:34And that's when the rumors started.
00:51:35Reclused billionaire.
00:51:37Gideon Maslow.
00:51:40Must be hard to hear people say that about you.
00:51:42No, I didn't care what they said anymore.
00:51:45You know, I had given up on love.
00:51:48But I had never given up on an heir.
00:51:50You know, I'm not going to hurt you like she did.
00:51:54You really can trust me.
00:51:58Can I tell you a secret?
00:52:03I think I believe you.
00:52:07I know.
00:52:13I'm going to say I've come to look up.
00:52:13You're right.
00:52:17Who is me?
00:52:19You're right.
00:52:20You're right here.
00:52:20You're right.
00:52:20I can't.
00:52:20I don't.
00:52:21I don't know what you said.
00:52:21I get to go to the side now.
00:52:22I say.
00:55:32I fell in love with you.
00:55:34Gideon, I'm in love with you.
00:55:37That's what Krista said, too.
00:55:39I don't know what to say to make you believe me.
00:55:41Don't try, because it's not going to work.
00:55:44Right?
00:55:44I thought that having a contract would finally take the complications out of everything, letting
00:55:49me finally get an heir to my estate.
00:55:52God, you violated it from the start.
00:55:54You don't want an heir, Gideon.
00:55:56You want a child, you want to be a dad and to have a family, and deep down, you know that
00:56:02I don't want to leave when the money is paid.
00:56:04I want to stay and I want to have a family with you.
00:56:07You're not scared that it's fake.
00:56:10You're scared that it might actually be real this time.
00:56:13You know, I feel sorry for you, Gideon.
00:56:17You have everything in this world, and you're going to end up with nothing.
00:56:40Oh, I didn't know you were here.
00:56:42I was going to make the bed.
00:56:46Looks like you already did.
00:56:49Looks like I already did.
00:56:55I'm sorry, Gideon.
00:56:58I know you were really hoping she would be the one, but I guess she was just another one.
00:57:05It makes me question if I could be of assistance.
00:57:11Not unless you can give me an heir.
00:57:12That's actually exactly what I wanted to talk to you about.
00:57:19The last thing I want to do is overstep.
00:57:22It would be my nightmare to learn that I've crossed some sort of boundary.
00:57:25But I think Alice has confused you.
00:57:29Somewhere along the way, she got in your head and made it all mushy-gushy.
00:57:33What happened to you, Gideon?
00:57:35What happened to you, Gideon?
00:57:37You want an heir?
00:57:38Then you need someone you can trust.
00:57:40Someone who you don't need to worry will start feeling feelings or thinking thoughts.
00:57:46Gideon, I've stood by you, unwaveringly, watching these women enter and exit your life.
00:57:56If you really want an heir, the Gideon I know would put one inside me right now.
00:58:04Gideon, I've stood by you, unwaveringly, unwaveringly, unwaveringly, unwaveringly, unwaveringly, unwaveringly.
00:58:12No, she didn't confuse me.
00:58:26She colored me in.
00:58:29Shaded me into three dimensions and she tore it all up.
00:58:42It's never simple with you, is it?
00:58:46I guess not.
00:58:48But I won't be making that mistake again.
00:58:53Which mistake is that?
00:58:55Poaching a surrogate for a contract marriage or trying to impregnate a virgin?
00:59:02Falling in love.
00:59:09Okay.
00:59:11I am going to do something that is very unlike me and actually give a shit for a second.
00:59:22Gideon, aside from the doctor that delivered you, I have known you longer than anyone on this planet.
00:59:29And once I finally kill that doctor, it'll be just me.
00:59:32Through all the parties, all the success, and all the women, I've never seen you as happy as when you are with Alice.
00:59:41I know she lied to you.
00:59:45She lied to me from the very beginning, from the absolute onset.
00:59:49Everything was built on a lie.
00:59:51But if you're going to trust something, trust your heart.
01:00:00Do you really want to lose her?
01:00:02Is it really worth that?
01:00:03Is it really worth that?
01:00:04So it was never real?
01:00:05It wasn't.
01:00:06Why didn't you tell me?
01:00:07I didn't think you'd understand.
01:00:08so it was never real it wasn't why didn't you tell me i didn't think you'd understand
