00:00Yes.
00:01That could be anything that could be.
00:05Yes, that could be anything that could be.
00:08So, so close.
00:09Your parents signed the contract for us.
00:12You're to marry Mr. Rich's son.
00:14Mary?
00:15The man you just saw is your.
00:18I didn't mean to interrupt you on your cousin, but I stayed silent.
00:22Cousin?
00:23Are you kidding?
00:25What?
00:27Stop!
00:29There.
00:31Who are you?
00:38I...
00:39I...
00:40Miss Annette.
00:42She is a guest of your father.
00:45Please allow me to take her...
00:48No!
00:51Tell me who she is.
00:53No!
00:54Miss Annette.
00:56Your father will explain everything to you later.
01:02I must take Miss Lay to him now.
01:06He hates to wait.
01:12Fine.
01:16You.
01:18If you dare to speak of what you've seen to my father...
01:23...and I will kill you.
01:42Come, Miss Lay.
01:44And please don't get lost again.
01:46I beg you.
01:50Do not go into the West Wing.
01:52If you do, we'll all be in trouble.
01:58Mr. Carter.
02:02Bring a known fashion to my study later.
02:05Yes.
02:06Mr. Rich.
02:07You must be...
02:34Miss Lay.
02:34Take a seat.
02:46Thank you for having me, Mr. Rich.
02:49This place...
02:52It's incredible.
02:53I had no idea I'd be teaching piano for such a distinguished family.
02:58Teaching piano.
02:59That is not what I'm paying you for.
03:06What?
03:08My father said...
03:10Miss Lay.
03:12The arrangement was clear.
03:15Your parents signed a contract with us.
03:19You're to marry Mr. Rich's son.
03:21Mary.
03:25No, you must be joking.
03:28You must be joking.
03:31It has to be a mistake.
03:34My mom said I'm just here to teach piano...
03:36Piano lessons.
03:39Is that what they told you?
03:40No.
03:40The agreement is binding.
03:48The man you just saw is your future husband.
03:59I...
04:00No, this...
04:02This can't be real.
04:03I'm sorry.
04:08This isn't happening.
04:08I'm leaving.
04:09Leaving?
04:11Where are you going?
04:12There is no transportation for miles.
04:15Then please send me home.
04:17This has to be a mistake.
04:20I'm afraid that's impossible.
04:23Mr. Rich has invested significantly in this arrangement.
04:27Your parents would suffer severe repercussions if you refused.
04:33This is kidnapping.
04:34You can't keep me here.
04:35It's illegal.
04:36The contract was signed and witnessed by the commissioner.
04:41Your parents have moved on.
04:44You have no one to turn to.
04:49I'll call my parents myself.
04:53Dial 545 Lake Avenue.
04:55Maytown, Florida.
04:57Number 555-43-23.
05:20My sweet popcorn.
05:22Daddy?
05:24What's happening?
05:25My mom told me I'm teaching a piano.
05:29I'm sorry.
05:30We didn't want to worry you.
05:32The rich family has been so generous.
05:35They've given us a new start.
05:37It's a man's son.
05:39Are you saying you sold me to them?
05:42Sold?
05:42God, no.
05:43You are going to marry his son.
05:46What a stroke of luck for you.
05:48I don't want to marry a stranger.
05:49Please come pick me up.
05:51Grow up, Lucy.
05:53You're 21.
05:53Still live at home.
05:55We couldn't afford you or your stupid hobby anymore.
05:58No, learning music isn't a hobby.
06:01Please put mom on the phone.
06:05Darling, it's mom.
06:09Listen to me.
06:10You can do anything when you have money, right?
06:13You can buy your own piano, buy happiness, buy dreams, anything.
06:16You're trapping me here.
06:18And now, stop this nonsense.
06:22She's going to inherit a fortune.
06:24Let her whine.
06:25She'll take her someday.
06:33Carter, set her up in her room.
06:42Come with me, Miss Light.
06:43Come with me, Miss Light.
06:44Come with me, Miss Light.
06:45Come with me, Miss Light.
06:46Come with me, Miss Light.
06:47Come with me, Miss Light.
06:48Come with me, Miss Light.
06:49Come with me, Miss Light.
06:50Come with me, Miss Light.
06:51Come with me, Miss Light.
06:52Come with me, Miss Light.
06:53Come with me, Miss Light.
06:54Come with me, Miss Light.
06:55Come with me, Miss Light.
06:56Come with me, Miss Light.
06:57Come with me, Miss Light.
06:58Come with me, Miss Light.
06:59Come with me, Miss Light.
07:00Come with me, Miss Light.
07:01Come with me, Miss Light.
07:02Come with me, Miss Light.
07:03Come with me, Miss Light.
07:04Come with me, Miss Light.
07:05Come with me, Miss Light.
07:06Come with me, Miss Light.
07:07I don't know.
07:37This way.
07:49Leave me alone.
07:54Listen.
07:57No one will care if you stay out here.
08:02You'll die from the freeze before anyone blinks an eye.
08:07At least, come inside.
08:10It's a shelter.
08:18My parents.
08:22They went away sick.
08:25I'm homeless.
08:28I guess I don't really have a choice, do I?
08:34You've got a choice, Lucy.
08:35And it's right behind you.
08:39Living here isn't easy.
08:43If you survive, you need to be strong.
08:53Come on.
09:00Come on.
09:00She's your fiancé?
09:27That's what Mr. Carter just told me.
09:31I hate father.
09:33He's trying to tear us apart.
09:36He's trying to turn us against each other.
09:38Turning us into something we're not.
09:43He doesn't care about us, Annie.
09:45He enjoys manipulating us.
09:48I can't stand that woman.
09:55She's making me sick.
09:59I'll get up out of here tonight.
10:03I promise you.
10:04But how?
10:10You know the power he has over us.
10:13His word is law.
10:14And...
10:14What are we?
10:17Let me handle this.
10:19I'll protect you.
10:20And what if you can't?
10:23He is bringing your into our family.
10:26Annette!
10:26We don't know why she's here.
10:31Let me talk to father.
10:33Maybe this is just...
10:34One big misunderstanding.
10:37Please.
10:38Don't act without reason.
10:41You are just like father.
10:44Making empty promises.
10:47We should leave.
10:49Katar's with this family forever.
10:50I am the heir to the rich family.
10:52I cannot ignore my responsibilities.
10:55I do not wish to be like father.
11:00But...
11:00Sometimes.
11:03To make a change, you have to play by his rules.
11:07Just long enough...
11:09To break free.
11:22Miss Lei.
11:23Here is your room.
11:25Here is your room.
11:29Here is your room.
11:30Here is your room.
11:35Did you do this?
12:00What?
12:05My sheet music, it's gone.
12:35What?
12:36What?
12:37What?
12:38What?
12:39What?
12:40What?
12:41What?
12:42What?
12:43What?
12:44What?
12:45What?
12:46What?
12:47What?
12:48What?
12:49What?
12:50What?
12:52What?
12:53What?
12:56You must have questions.
13:25Please, go ahead.
13:28Ask.
13:31Why me, Mr. Rich?
13:35You are suitable.
13:38Suitable? For what?
13:41To play a role.
13:44A very important role.
13:47You are to be engaged to my son at his engagement party as Catherine of Valenia.
13:54A princess from an obscure but distinguished European lineage.
13:59You will charm the guests, align yourself with the elite, and prove to be the wife who secures his standing.
14:07Why don't you just find a real princess?
14:12Isn't your family powerful enough to find someone genuine?
14:18Or are you hiding something?
14:25How much money did my parents take from you? Whatever it is, I'll repay it. I'll work. I'll get the money. I'll-
14:31Your parents' debt is no longer yours to negotiate. Their fate rests in your cooperation.
14:40Now, enough with the interrogation. Prepare yourself.
14:45You have a role to play.
14:48There is much to learn. Time is short.
14:51And there will be no mistakes.
14:55I barriers to making blades.
15:00You have been murdered in both sides.
15:05I tried to establish a mess of food, standing in lahir, and that one time has been cleared in all sides.
15:12It's $4 million.
15:15Oh, God, is this what wealthy families drink for their meals?
15:44How disgraceful.
15:47Hair's a mess, clothes and tatters.
15:49For your parents' sake, clean yourself up.
15:52At least make an effort to blend into the world you've stumbled into,
15:56though I doubt you could ever truly fit in.
16:14What is obvious?
16:27What is obvious?
16:44Look at you.
16:51How can you be my fiancé when you can't even manage the most basic of appearances and...
16:57Must you always carry that foul stench?
17:06Are these clothes for me?
17:14You've managed to be...
17:17I'm answering my questions.
17:20Isn't it obvious?
17:22If you're going to be my fiancé, you must be proper.
17:27Go.
17:39Change.
17:40See if the size fits you.
17:47It's going to take a while.
17:49I haven't had a proper bath in days.
17:57I don't know, it's going to get it.
17:59You've got to take a while.
18:00I'll leave you.
18:03It's going to take a while.
18:05I don't know, I'll leave you.
18:06I love you.
18:10I love you.
18:11I love you.
18:12I love you.
18:20I love you.
18:22I-I think this size fits perfectly.
18:48What do you think?
18:52Better.
18:55Well, not good enough.
19:00Found them in the garden.
19:22These are the details of your fabricated princess background, your lineage, your illustrious family history.
19:30Commit them to memory as if they were your own name.
19:35Live them. Do not falter.
19:39Princess Catherine of Velenia.
19:54Princess Catherine of Velenia.
20:01Princess Catherine of Velenia.
20:19There you are!
20:21So, Miss Lay, how's your day in the Ridge family?
20:31Do join me for afternoon tea, won't you?
20:35Uh, are, are you, uh, I, okay.
20:43Splendid.
20:44I'll see you soon.
20:47Oh, by the way, feel free to wear something more casual.
20:55This expensive gown doesn't suit you.
20:59Mr. Carter will show you the way.
21:17Be sure to catch the light and hurry.
21:25So, Miss Lay, tell me, where did my father procure you from?
21:43Come back Watertown, perhaps?
21:47Miss Rich, I, um, I don't understand what you mean.
21:52Does it matter?
21:55Darling, in this house, it most certainly does.
22:02I want for you to understand your place.
22:07You are nothing but a pawn in my father's charade.
22:14Tell me.
22:17What's his plan?
22:19Name your price.
22:22I'll pay.
22:32Do you know why I love having artists here?
22:37Because they see things others don't.
22:42Details.
22:43Secrets.
22:44Secrets.
22:45Don't you agree?
22:49Perhaps, though, sometimes secrets are better left unseen.
22:55Oh, but...
22:58Some secrets should be shared.
23:01Don't you agree?
23:04Like...
23:07Hannibal and I...
23:10We are...
23:12So...
23:13So close.
23:14So...
23:15Inseparable.
23:19Srich, I didn't mean to interrupt you on your cousin, but I've stayed silent for you.
23:27Cousin.
23:28Are you kidding?
23:30We're twins.
23:32We're twins.
23:33Yes!
23:34Woohoo!
23:35Yes!
23:36Yes.
