16:42No idea.
16:44I think we're chained to the left, darling.
16:45That's where the evening post is, in that direction.
16:47Charlotte, you go down there and make sure they get a few full-length shots, please.
16:55This is your big comeback.
17:11Not for a reason to try, then, yeah?
17:29Agreed.
17:30Have you noticed any increase in the other senses?
17:33Oh, yeah.
17:34Yeah, all seem to be in a heightened state and progressing every day.
17:38If by heightened you mean I can smell and hear a mouse fart from a mile away, then yeah.
17:45What about touch? Taste?
17:48We were actually just about to enter that phase of testing.
17:52We were?
17:55Oh, yeah.
18:01So what exactly are we doing?
18:03We are testing your sense of taste to see if it's also entered into a heightened state.
18:10What a weird way to say I'm making dinner.
18:13Hush.
18:15Here.
18:15Well, what senses are feeling heightened?
18:35All of them.
18:37You.
18:39Same.
18:42Your water's boiling.
18:45Yeah, it is.
18:48No, your water's boiling over the stove.
18:52Oh, shit.
18:57Well, so much for dinner.
19:02Can I have more of that apple, please?
19:06Ah.
19:06What?
19:20What?
19:33Ethan?
19:34Yeah.
19:34Everything okay?
19:38Yeah, everything's fine.
19:40Why do I get the feeling you're hiding something?
19:43I'm not.
19:44You know I may be vulnerable, but I'm not fragile.
19:47I know.
19:48I know you're not fragile.
19:50Ethan?
19:51Something isn't right here.
19:53What do you mean?
19:54I mean, I don't think it's safe here.
19:57Ah.
19:59Anika, I'm serious.
19:59I feel like you're in danger here.
20:02Even if I am, which I'm not, I always have you to keep an eye on me.
20:07See?
20:09I'll be keeping an eye on both of you.
20:23And I'll be keeping an eye on both of you.
20:25And I do need you to remember there are no guarantees.
20:35Are there any risks?
20:38Frustration.
20:40You know what my mom used to always say?
20:42A hopeful heart is a magnet for miracles.
20:44I like that.
20:46Do you have your hand?
20:47You hold very still.
20:50All right.
20:50There you go.
20:52That's it?
20:53That's it.
20:55So, you'll let us know?
20:57As soon as I know, you'll know.
21:00You're very welcome.
21:01I heard a rumor you'd be making a house call.
21:17Hello?
21:18You must be Dr. Kelly.
21:20Guilty.
21:21I'm Charlotte, Anika's sister.
21:23Oh.
21:24What a pleasure to meet you.
21:26The pleasure's all mine.
21:28I looked you up.
21:29You did?
21:30Hmm.
21:31All your research page-turning stuff.
21:34You don't say.
21:35Sorry to hear about your daughter.
21:37It's tragic.
21:39So, you really think the treatment will work?
21:42Yes, I do.
21:44Correct me if I'm wrong, but early testing resulted in some pretty serious side effects.
21:49Those were very early cases.
21:51Right.
21:53Your daughter was part of the testing, wasn't she?
21:58You know what?
21:59It's none of my business.
22:00You know, it would be a shame, though, if something happened to my sister, as powerful as my family is.
22:08Those kind of mistakes, they can be life-changing.
22:15Anyway, it's nice to meet you.
22:18Oh, fingers crossed.
22:20Car, now.
22:40Randall, what are you doing here?
22:42You're hurting me.
22:43Let go.
22:43Why?
22:44Why must you always humiliate me?
22:46What are you talking about?
22:48As rumors surround a possible merger between Strauss Global and Marlowe Biotech, another merger may be happening as well between Annika Strauss and Mr. Ethan Ward, her caretaker.
22:57Which begs the question, is love truly blind?
23:01Randall.
23:02No.
23:02I know what you're doing.
23:04You're trying to replace me.
23:06The business.
23:07The marriage.
23:08Everything.
23:09It's nothing more than a business transaction to you, huh?
23:17Don't.
23:18Please.
23:24Hello?
23:25Annika, it's Dr. Kelly.
23:28Um, look, I have some bad news.
23:31Your test results show that you're not a viable candidate for treatment.
23:35I'm so sorry.
23:37I wish I had better news.
23:38You're not thinking about quitting.
23:51It's a test.
23:52Screw the test, Annika.
23:53We'll get a second opinion.
23:54Stop, please.
23:57There's some problems that don't have solutions.
24:00Some things are better left alone.
24:04Are we talking about you now, hmm?
24:07Or your eyesight?
24:08Hmm?
24:14Damn it.
24:22About the other day,
24:24I'm not sure what got into me.
24:26I shouldn't have grabbed you like that.
24:27Seeing you with him.
24:29It's just, uh,
24:30I'm afraid I'm losing you.
24:33Annika.
24:35And I love you.
24:36You and Charlotte seem to be very close these days.
24:41Don't be ridiculous.
24:43She's kind of like a sister to me.
24:44I know exactly what you mean.
24:49Annika, darling,
24:50I've been looking everywhere for you.
24:53Speak of the devil.
24:59Annika?
25:00Come on.
25:14Wake up.
25:14Wake up.
25:18Come on.
25:19Come on.
25:19Hey, you're okay.
25:24You're okay.
25:25You're okay.
25:25I'm here.
25:25I got you.
25:27It's okay.
25:30I'm just trying to breathe.
25:31Ethan, would you lie with me just a little bit?
25:37I'm scared, Ethan.
25:40I'm scared of not knowing what to do anymore.
25:42I'm scared of who I'm becoming.
25:44I'm scared of who I was
25:46and the damage that I've done.
25:47But mostly, I'm scared of how I feel when I'm with you.
25:54And I'm terrified when I'm not.
26:05Is this okay?
26:06Yeah.
26:13I won't fall asleep, I promise.
26:18Just don't go yet.
26:23I was going to ask you.
26:37Great.
26:38Now he's a goddamn hero.
26:40Great job hiring him, by the way.
26:42She could have died.
26:44I'm not doing this anymore.
26:48Don't go soft on me, Randall.
26:51There's no turning back now.
26:54And the only way this ends well
26:56is if we stick to the plan.
26:59Stop the merger
26:59and get the company back on track.
27:03And when I'm in charge,
27:05you get to stay.
27:06In the company
27:07and in my bed.
27:12Almost forgot.
27:17What's this?
27:18A present.
27:21Where are you going?
27:24To get rid of the nurse.
27:36Tell me why.
27:40Why what?
27:40You never even tested her samples.
27:42Ethan.
27:43Tell me why!
27:44I was scared.
27:46What if it doesn't work?
27:47What if it does more damage than good?
27:49You're scared?
27:50Huh?
27:51What about her?
27:51This is for the best.
27:53You just need to trust me.
27:54What the hell happened to you, Mom?
27:56You saw what it did to your sister.
27:58She's not Sydney, Mom!
28:00You gotta get over that.
28:02Sid knew the risks.
28:04Okay, we all did.
28:06And so does Annika.
28:07I can't.
28:09I won't.
28:10Mom.
28:12Please.
28:12Why would you even want to run the risk?
28:14Because I'm in love with her!
28:16I am.
28:17And I can give you a thousand reasons why.
28:20But mostly, for the first time in a long time,
28:25I feel like someone actually sees me.
28:28I'm sorry, honey.
28:30I didn't know.
28:31How could you?
28:34I've been living in the shadow of a ghost for 20 years.
28:39You've been so focused on the child you lost,
28:41you forgot about the one you still have.
28:43And, uh, you know what?
28:46Never mind.
28:48Ethan.
28:49Ethan.
28:51Ethan!
28:55You okay?
28:57Yeah, I think so.
28:59It's strange, doctor's therapy.
29:02It all used to feel like admitting something was wrong with me.
29:06I grew up in a world where no one ever said what they felt,
29:11never spoke any truth,
29:12and never, ever reached out for help.
29:18It wasn't real.
29:18I see that now.
29:21How about now?
29:23I want something messier,
29:26a life where I don't have to perform,
29:28where I can fall apart
29:30and not be afraid.
29:34I mean, that's the only life worth living, I think.
29:36You're the only one who makes me feel safe enough to say that out loud.
29:42And I don't let people in easily, I never have.
29:46But with you, it's different.
29:48I feel more myself
29:51with you than I have with anyone else.
29:53I don't know.
30:18Ethan?
30:22Knock, knock.
30:23Someone ordered breakfast in bed?
30:25You've been glowing.
30:27What are resident night shining scrubs
30:28have something to do with it?
30:30We just understand each other.
30:32So, you two aren't...
30:34No.
30:35Don't be silly.
30:36Oh, good.
30:37Because I think he's got a thing for me.
30:40Ethan?
30:41Oh, yeah.
30:42Ask me if I could stop by later.
30:44But you're my sister, so I just wanted to make sure...
30:46We're just friends.
30:48So, you're cool with it?
30:51I mean, if he's giving you signals,
30:52don't let me get in the way.
30:55Thanks for the blessing, sis.
30:56I'll let you know how it goes.
30:58Ciao.
31:16Anika.
31:20Anika, what are you doing?
31:33Not much?
31:35Anika.
31:35Might as well now.
31:42Get off!
31:43Anika, wait!
31:45Anika, please.
31:47No.
31:49Your loss.
31:53Can you open up?
31:54Please let me explain.
31:59Oh, it's so flying.
32:00I can't see you, people!
32:14Morning.
32:16Ethan's contract is up soon.
32:18I'm not renewing it.
32:19There's a neurologist in Sweden.
32:21Had quite a bit of success.
32:22I bought you a ticket.
32:24You leave in a week.
32:25You're making decisions now.
32:27Well, somebody has to.
32:28Is that so?
32:29It is.
32:29Somebody has to run this company.
32:31And you're just the man for the job?
32:32I can do it.
32:34Randall, if incompetence was an Olympic sport,
32:36you'd be a lock for the gold.
32:39Insults.
32:41Here, I've been trying to protect you.
32:42No, you've been trying to possess me.
32:45You think he's your savior?
32:46Your soulmate?
32:47He's going to leave one way or another.
32:48Then I'd rather be alone.
32:51You don't know anything about him.
32:53Nothing.
32:56What I do, here.
32:59Maybe I'll read it to you.
33:06Hey, are you okay?
33:08Not really, no.
33:10This about last night?
33:11What do you think?
33:13Listen, I'm sorry.
33:15If you would have told me when I asked,
33:17I'd have known I never...
33:18No, I know.
33:19It's my fault.
33:22I'm more disappointed in him.
33:24I thought he was different.
33:27Well, he isn't.
33:28None of them are.
33:30Us girls have to stick together.
33:32What's this folder?
33:34No idea Randall left it there.
33:36Uh-oh.
33:40What?
33:40Seems Ethan and the goat doctor haven't exactly been forthcoming.
33:47What do you mean?
33:48It seems.
33:49Dr. Kelly has a son.
33:52Ethan?
33:53There's more.
33:53It appears that when Dr. Kelly began testing her treatment,
33:58her daughter was one of the participants in the study.
34:01Sydney?
34:02Yes.
34:03She died as a result.
34:05Oh my God.
34:06Wait.
34:08What if Ethan is your attacker in the parking garage?
34:13Annika?
34:15Hey, can we talk?
34:16There's nothing to talk about.
34:18Annika.
34:18We are patient and medical professionals.
34:20As long as we keep that in mind, we will be just fine.
34:23Can you just let me explain what happened?
34:24Oh, go ahead, Ethan.
34:25While you're at it, explain this.
34:29Where did you get this?
34:31Does it matter?
34:33Now, do we have a scheduled session?
34:35No.
34:36Then I'll see you when we do.
34:38Annika, she's lying to you.
34:40And you haven't?
34:41I...
34:42You should probably go.
34:48You okay?
34:50I'll be right back.
34:53Hey, wait.
34:55This is for you.
34:58What's this?
34:59Severance pay.
35:00Your services are no longer needed.
35:02This is what Annika wants?
35:04Hey, I want to hear it from her.
35:07You just did.
35:17You have 30 minutes to pack your shit and get off the property.
35:21Clock's ticking, lover boy.
35:22Are you going somewhere?
35:31I got fired.
35:33Fired?
35:34What?
35:34Look, what do you want?
35:35I wanted to see my son.
35:38I wanted to tell you how sorry I am.
35:40I truly am sorry.
35:41And I...
35:42I love you very much.
35:53Annika.
35:55Annika!
35:56Annika, wait.
35:57No.
35:57Go away.
35:58You shouldn't be here.
35:58I want to explain.
36:00No.
36:00I don't want to hear it.
36:02You're a liar.
36:02Stop.
36:05Look, I didn't tell you about Sydney.
36:08I tried to give my daughter her sight back.
36:11It cost me her life.
36:14Sorry.
36:16Despite everything, this man never gave up on me.
36:19He isn't giving up on you either.
36:21I didn't test your sample because I don't have to.
36:24There's another way.
36:25And if you trust me, I can show you exactly what it is.
36:33Okay.
36:34Now, I need you to stay as still as possible, all right?
36:43I saw something.
36:46I saw...
36:47Light.
36:48Light.
36:50Please escort the nurse and his mother off the premises.
36:55Whoa.
36:56What?
36:56What is this?
36:57What are you doing?
36:58Annika, it's early.
36:59Ethan!
37:00Ethan!
37:03What are we testing to?
37:04New beginnings.
37:05New beginnings.
37:09Wait, what happened?
37:11What's wrong?
37:12I don't want to do this.
37:14Yes, you do.
37:15No, I don't.
37:16Look, Ethan's gone.
37:18Annika needs me.
37:19And this is my chance to fix my marriage.
37:22You're pathetic.
37:23Do you really believe things can go back to the way they were?
37:25Because they can't.
37:26Ever.
37:27I...
37:27I...
37:27I...
37:28I...
37:29I...
37:29Jesus, you're weak.
37:31Now listen to me, and listen good.
37:34I know every little secret you have in that twisted little brain of yours.
37:37And if you screw this up for me, every little one of those secrets is going to come out.
37:40And when they do, you won't have to worry about being a good husband.
37:44Because you'll be far too busy being a good boyfriend.
37:47Good.
37:49Now turn off the lights.
37:53And?
37:54I don't know.
37:54She's not answering her phone.
37:55And I can't get close to the estate.
37:57They've got security everywhere.
37:58Look, Ethan, I know you're not going to want to hear this, but sweetheart, this procedure is time sensitive.
38:03Okay, how much time do we have?
38:04The sooner the better.
38:06If I can't take down the edema on her optic nerve, it's just going to increase until...
38:10I'll get her.
38:12Ethan.
38:14Please be careful.
38:16I will.
38:17You just worry about prepping for the surgery.
38:20Two steps.
38:22Turn.
38:23Two steps.
38:24Thinking of leaving?
38:26I want to go into town.
38:27Not possible.
38:28Your attacker's still at large.
38:30Then give me my phone.
38:32Why?
38:33Hey, we're handling everything for you.
38:35I don't want your help, nor do I need it.
38:37Give me my phone.
38:38Rest, dear.
38:39You're going to need it for your trip.
38:41What trip?
38:42Sweden.
38:43We're sending you to a real professional.
38:45You can't do this.
38:47I'm sorry, my love.
38:47It's already set in stone.
38:49We'll be leaving in a few days.
38:50It's for your own good.
38:55Ethan.
39:00Wow.
39:01You look like...
39:02Perfection.
39:04I'm aware.
39:05I was going to say Annika.
39:07Don't you ever say that.
39:10Sorry.
39:12If anything, she looks like me.
39:23Everything ready for tomorrow?
39:25I meet with the board at 9 a.m.
39:27Excellent.
39:27What if the vote doesn't go your way?
39:30Randall, I swear.
39:33Give me one example of how Annika's shown she's capable of running the company since her accident.
39:37Exactly.
39:38But they love her.
39:39And in time, they'll learn to love me too.
39:44What's this?
39:44The final nail in the coffin?
39:49Libby!
39:49Libby!
39:55We regret to inform you that the merger with Marlo Biotech has been dissolved.
39:59I'm so sorry, Annika.
40:01We all know how hard you worked on that merger.
40:04And for what it's worth, voting you out and sending you away is just wrong.
40:08We're all going to miss you.
40:09What did you say?
40:11We're all going to miss you.
40:12No, the other part.
40:13They're meeting tomorrow to vote you out.
40:16Is there anything I can do for you?
40:18No, thank you.
40:19That'll be all.
40:21Wait.
40:22Do you have your phone on you?
40:33Ethan?
40:34Annika.
40:34Hey, are you okay?
40:36Randall and Charlotte have been planning to take over the company.
40:39They're meeting with the board tomorrow to finalize the deal.
40:41All right, I've got a bigger problem.
40:42I have to get you to the hospital.
40:45Annika.
40:46Hello?
40:49You just continue to be a thorn in my side.
40:54You're fired.
40:55Get her out of here.
40:55I know what you're doing.
40:57You will never get away with this.
41:11Hurry.
41:27Quiet.
41:29Hey.
41:30Why did you do this?
41:31Had to be done.
41:34No.
41:35We're all supposed to scare her.
41:37Hey.
41:38Someone's coming.
41:38Here she is.
41:51Your favorite.
41:52Give him a mile.
41:53I remember it was you and Randall.
42:06Took you long enough.
42:08Why are you doing this?
42:10Ever since we were little girls, you were always favored.
42:14Always in the spotlight.
42:15Always the apple of daddy's eye.
42:19The star.
42:21The princess.
42:22The wife.
42:23The CEO.
42:25The center of everyone's universe.
42:27Well, not anymore.
42:29I'll make the decisions from here on out.
42:31And the board?
42:33I'll never be able to tell the difference.
42:35You're sick.
42:37No.
42:38I'm ready.
42:41Ready to take my place at the head of the table.
42:45Everyone will think it's you.
42:47Except in reality.
42:49I'll be a better Annika than you ever were.
42:52You'll never get away.
42:53I already have.
43:05You never loved me.
43:18You married me for power.
43:21My name.
43:25My legacy.
43:30It's not true.
43:32Isn't it?
43:33You lied to me.
43:35And then you attacked me.
43:37And now you're trying to erase me.
43:40I tried.
43:42I did.
43:43But no matter what, it was never enough.
43:46Nothing I did was ever good enough for you.
43:48You looked at me like I was a liability.
43:50Never an asset.
43:51You burned both of you.
43:54Better to rule in hell than serve in heaven.
43:59Stop that.
44:00Why is she laughing?
44:01No idea.
44:02Stop it now.
44:03What's so funny?
44:06I had to be blind to see you assholes clearly.
44:12Now, Ethan!
44:13So, Randall and your sister...
44:16And your sister...
44:18Charlotte.
44:18Charlotte.
44:19Charlotte.
44:19Right.
44:20They were your attackers?
44:22Yes.
44:23They tried to replace me, take over the company, kill the merger.
44:27What happens now?
44:28I've decided to kill the merger.
44:29You can't.
44:30I can and I did.
44:31I could see how it was going to put people out of work, so we're going in a different direction.
44:36What direction would that be?
44:38People.
44:40Come before the bottom line.
44:41If you don't mind us asking, what happened to Randall and your sister?
44:46Charlotte.
44:46Charlotte.
44:47Right.
44:54Yeah.
44:55How about that?
44:57We won't be seeing them again.
44:59Well, I see no reason not to reinstate you as CEO.
45:04I concur.
45:05Well, see, the thing is, I'll be taking some time off.
45:09I have some things I need to focus on.
45:11Such as?
45:12I can tell you this much.
45:15I have to see a guy about some memories.
45:18What does that even mean?
45:20Mrs. Strauss.
45:21Mrs. Strauss.
45:23Annika, I can send out your divorce papers today.
45:27I just need your signature.
45:29Right there.
45:35Annika, if you don't mind me asking, what's going to happen to Randall and your...
45:40Charlotte.
45:41Charlotte, right.
45:43They'll always have each other.
45:51Come on, you two.
45:53Arts and Crafts starts in ten minutes.
46:11And?
46:12They took it pretty well.
46:14Okay.
46:16Well, what do you say?
46:17You ready?
46:19Almost.
46:20There's one thing I still need to do.
46:22What's that?
46:23I like that.
46:30What was that for?
46:32I wanted to start making some memories.
46:35I like the way you think.
46:37Mm-hmm.
46:38So, it went well?
46:46Perfectly.
46:48For everything.
46:49Of course.
46:51And, uh...
46:52I really like her.
46:54Me too.
46:54Mm-hmm.
46:55Can you see me?
47:16I don't know.
47:19Move closer?
47:19Closer.
47:20I love you even more.
47:32And I love you, Monica.
47:34I love you even more.
47:34I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I
