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 6'5 perfect body,
00:00:27the heart he liked to pretend he didn't have. And eventually, I started to realize
00:00:33I wanted this baby, and the strange little family we'd become. I wanted him.
00:00:39But my year with Gideon Maslow was coming to an end. Was it possible he felt the same way?
00:00:57Why 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 dog.
00:01:47So 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.
00:02:22Did 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.
00:02:31You're young, you're healthy.
00:02:33I can already think of several clients who would love you.
00:02:36Oh, that's great. It's a huge relief, honestly.
00:02:39Oh, but...
00:02:40Honey, wait.
00:02:41Your 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.
00:02:50It 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.
00:02:58Egg donation is still a beautiful way to help bring new life into the world.
00:03:02Let me get you a pamphlet.
00:03:34Hey, 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...
00:03:48Rotting. On a couch.
00:03:51You just have to take things easy until we...
00:03:53I know, I know.
00:03:58By the way, um...
00:04:00Have you heard of someone named Gideon Maslow?
00:04:04Yeah, of course.
00:04:05He's the CEO of Maslow Enterprises.
00:04:07He's a billionaire.
00:04:09Why?
00:04:11Just saw the name somewhere.
00:04:17Who is this?
00:04:18Hi, uh...
00:04:20This is Alice Gardner.
00:04:21The Parkside Surrogacy Agency referred me.
00:04:25Okay.
00:04:26I'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.
00:04:41I'll text you my...
00:04:42Sure.
00:04:43I'll text you my...
00:04:44Can I help you?
00:05:12Hi.
00:05:13Yes, 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.
00:05:25Alice, I see you met my house manager, Helga.
00:05:40Follow me.
00:05:49Sign.
00:05:49What 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.
00:06:07Or else I will unleash a legal firestorm on your ass.
00:06:11The likes of which you couldn't even imagine.
00:06:13Your lawyers are going to need lawyers.
00:06:16And their lawyers are going to need lawyers.
00:06:18Okay.
00:06:19Jeez.
00:06:20I get it.
00:06:23Could have just asked me to pinky promise.
00:06:25I take those very seriously.
00:06:28All right.
00:06:29Let'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 and give birth to my heir.
00:06:48I'm sorry.
00:06:50What?
00:06:52Oh.
00:06:54You're one of those billionaires.
00:06:57Freaky 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.
00:07:05We'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?
00:07:33Why 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?
00:07:44Who said anything about sex?
00:07:46I 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, not to have a child with you.
00:08:1210 million dollars.
00:08:2310?
00:08:2410 million dollars?
00:08:2710 million dollars.
00:08:29Okay.
00:08:30Okay, I'll do it.
00:08:31Well, 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.
00:08:47You really like the sound of all that money, don't you?
00:08:51No, I don't like it.
00:08:53I need it.
00:08:57My brother has a hole in his heart.
00:09:00He needs surgery, and the longer we wait, the 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.
00:09:12Look, I'll be the best fake wife you've ever had, okay?
00:09:15Hey, please?
00:09:20Please?
00:09:25All right.
00:09:27We'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.
00:09:40Yes, 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, and all your day-to-day expenses will be taken care of.
00:09:52I have to live with you?
00:09:54I 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.
00:10:06All right.
00:10:06Now what?
00:10:13Why aren't you signing?
00:10:15I want you to meet him first.
00:10:16Well, send the car.
00:10:18No, no.
00:10:18I can't have him leave the house.
00:10:20Is he a kid or is he a dog?
00:10:23He's sick, Gideon.
00:10:25All right.
00:10:25Well, I don't leave the estate.
00:10:26So if you want me to meet him, you'll bring him here.
00:10:28Alice 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, so I asked her to keep our romance quiet, I hope.
00:10:45Well, I hope you can forgive me.
00:10:47Yeah, I think I can forgive anyone with a house this big.
00:10:49Don't get too excited, your heart.
00:10:58Karen, 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.
00:11:21And you are?
00:11:24Oh, I'm 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.
00:11:51Hey, how about we take a walk outside, take a walk around the grounds?
00:11:54It's a beautiful day today.
00:11:58But you think that, like, maybe there would be enough?
00:12:03I think everyone buys it.
00:12:05Maybe even two more.
00:12:06Do Karen 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.
00:12:18I'll give him my best shot.
00:12:22Alice?
00:12:22No, I'm good.
00:12:24Nico?
00:12:26Your brother!
00:12:28Nico, no!
00:12:28No!
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.
00:12:45Oh, my God.
00:12:56I am so sorry.
00:12:58I, 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.
00:13:10Alice!
00:13:23It's good that he's getting some rest.
00:13:27What 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.
00:13:38You want him to live here full time?
00:13:43Well, make sure that he's very comfortable.
00:13:46And 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.
00:14:05I 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.
00:14:19Welcome 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.
00:14:45You can have your run of the house.
00:14:48But that room is completely off limits.
00:14:51You understand?
00:14:52Helga, help Alice get situated.
00:15:09I have to make a phone call.
00:15:10Of course, Mr. Maslow.
00:15:11Thanks 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.
00:15:28I'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 all the time, keeping an eye on you.
00:15:49I thought you'd be asleep.
00:16:07Restless, I guess.
00:16:11So how was your first day at the house?
00:16:13I 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?
00:16:40I sent my sample to the doctor already.
00:16:42So he's just going to insert her into you?
00:16:46How romantic.
00:16:47How romantic.
00:17:12How romantic.
00:17:13How romantic.

00:18:40Ms. Cardinal, this room is off limits to guests.
00:18:46I'm not a guest.
00:18:53You heard, Mr. Maslow.
00:19:10Oh, thank you.
00:19:20You know, I've become such a fast reader these last few weeks.
00:19:22See? Perks of taking it easy.
00:19:24Exactly. Who needs friends when you have your sister's old books?
00:19:28Ha. Funny.
00:19:30Really, I'm super proud of how seriously you're taking this recovery.
00:19:37Yeah, anything to get me back to real life faster.
00:19:40I hate to break it to you, buddy, but this is a lot more like real life than whatever you're missing over summer break.
00:19:46Like, how is this real life?
00:19:49Having your priorities straight, compromising on joy because it's what you have to do, it doesn't get more real life than that, babe.
00:19:59Looking good, isn't he?
00:20:01You've done great work.
00:20:02Well, I take tips.
00:20:04I'm a little strapped for cash at the moment, saving up for a big surgery.
00:20:09Speaking of, we were able to set a date.
00:20:15The nurse will go over everything with you, but we're looking pretty good.
00:20:19Nico's on the up and up.
00:20:23What?
00:20:23So Helga told me you went snooping.
00:20:41What a tattletale.
00:20:42I gave you access to every other room in the house.
00:20:44You couldn't respect my one wish?
00:20:46Have you ever read the story of Bluebeard?
00:20:48Obviously not.
00:20:49Okay, 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.
00:20:59Sound familiar?
00:21:00So what?
00:21:01So, it turns out he had the corpses of six other wives stuffed in the room.
00:21:06You think I went through all this just to kill you?
00:21:10There'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.
00:21:18You are so stubborn.
00:21:20He did not disclose that in the contract before we signed it.
00:21:24Well, you're a secretive.
00:21:25You didn't mention that.
00:21:27And I don't think you're really 6'5".
00:21:29No, I'm 6'5".
00:21:31Come on, Gideon.
00:21:33You can trust me.
00:21:36Who is she?
00:21:36The woman in the painting.
00:21:40She's the reason why I won't trust you.
00:21:42Or any other woman for that matter.
00:21:44You're right.
00:22:14Why won't you tell me who that woman is?
00:22:19Because I don't want to talk about other women.
00:22:25What does that mean?
00:22:31It means...
00:22:33I only want to think about you.
00:22:39My little dove.
00:22:44What the...

00:33:19It didn't pass much time.
00:33:29Are you sure you want this?
00:33:51I'm sure.
00:33:51There's no pressure if you feel any kind of way, and if it hurts or anything...
00:34:00Yeah, thanks, Katie.
00:34:02I'll follow you, Leigh, all right?
00:34:08You take control.
00:34:09Does that sound okay?
00:34:12I want you to take control.
00:34:15Good morning.
00:34:34Oh.
00:34:36Hey, good morning.
00:34:38You feeling okay?
00:34:40Yeah, that was good, right?
00:34:47Oh, yeah.
00:34:48It was really good.
00:34:51We could have another drink tonight?
00:34:55I actually forgot to tell you.
00:34:57We're going to have dinner with Karen and Jenny tonight.
00:34:59Dinner?
00:35:01Okay, but why?
00:35:04I mean, we have to seem like a big, happy family.
00:35:07Well, if we're getting divorced in a year, we don't have to appear that happy.
00:35:11Well, no.
00:35:12I mean, we can't have any cracks in our story.
00:35:14I love my brother, but he's got a loud mouth, and Jenny will say anything about everything.
00:35:20Well, then we better get our story straight.
00:35:22If we're going to get grilled, we should be on the same page.
00:35:25I'm sure.
00:35:26We could practice.
00:35:27I mean, our brother isn't exactly Columbo, and Jenny and Helga are harmless.
00:35:33Helga's coming?
00:35:35Yeah, she says she wanted to get to know you.
00:35:38She has it out for me.
00:35:40It's one night.
00:35:41We can get through one night.
00:35:48Soup's almost ready.
00:35:49Just another few minutes.
00:35:50Thank you, Helga.
00:35:54It's nice to get some face time with you, Alice.
00:35:57I've been wanting to get to know you better.
00:35:59Well, you know what they say?
00:36:01You don't know someone until you see the meat.
00:36:07How do you eat, Alice?
00:36:10You want me to spoil the surprise?
00:36:12I'll tell you how I eat.
00:36:15Until I'm full.
00:36:18Can attest to that.
00:36:20So tell us, how did you and Gideon meet?
00:36:22And the questions begin before you even hire appetizers.
00:36:26It'll be another few minutes.
00:36:28What were you saying, Gideon, about how you two met?
00:36:31Well, dear, would you like me to, or would you like to?
00:36:34Well, I just love the way you tell it.
00:36:36All right.
00:36:38Well, it's a very funny story, actually.
00:36:41We met at a charity event a few years ago,
00:36:44and then we happened to come across each other online
00:36:47a few months ago.
00:36:50What's funny about that?
00:36:52The way life works, sometimes.
00:36:55Well, honey, you forgot the funniest part
00:36:58about how later that night you accidentally tripped me.
00:37:01Oh, and then she dropped her champagne glass.
00:37:03What event was it?
00:37:09What charity event was it?
00:37:13The one for the opera.
00:37:21I remember this.
00:37:23I literally remember Gideon telling me that he tripped someone.
00:37:27Don't you remember, Kieran?
00:37:28I told you about this.
00:37:29You know, I just don't remember you in our circle.
00:37:36You don't seem like the type.
00:37:40Why?
00:37:42Am I not high-class enough?
00:37:44I didn't mean that.
00:37:45No, it's okay.
00:37:46I get it.
00:37:47I would be worried, too, if I thought someone was trying to take advantage of my family.
00:37:52I know you have a lot to protect, and...
00:37:55I don't come from a home like this.
00:37:58So you're right.
00:37:59I can't prove to you that I'm not some gold digger.
00:38:02All I can do is promise you that Gideon and I...
00:38:08We know the truth, and...
00:38:11We trust each other.
00:38:12You really are a special girl.
00:38:22I had my doubts, of course.
00:38:24I 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.
00:38:31You two moved in together so quick, I...
00:38:34I assumed that Gideon got you pregnant.
00:38:36You can imagine my relief when I saw the negative pregnancy test.
00:38:43Pregnancy test?
00:38:47Were you going through my trash?
00:38:49Of course not, Alice.
00:38:51Be reasonable.
00:38:53I was cleaning up the mess you made in your bathroom and...
00:38:56Didn't know what I was looking at until it was too late.
00:38:58Are you trying to get pregnant?
00:38:59Of course not, Kieran, but accidents happen.
00:39:01We are trying.
00:39:06Gideon.
00:39:08You don't think it's a little rushed?
00:39:10Of course it's rushed.
00:39:11No.
00:39:12It's not.
00:39:13And how is that?
00:39:14Because...
00:39:15We...
00:39:16...
00:39:19It's okay, you can tell if I'm Gideon.
00:39:22I asked him to keep it a surprise, but...
00:39:25We're getting married.
00:39:27What?
00:39:31When is this happening?
00:39:33Um...
00:39:34Next week?
00:39:37And you're sure this is something you want to do?
00:39:44I'm positive.
00:39:50Well, in that case...
00:39:53Welcome to the family, Alice!
00:39:57Soup's on!
00:40:01I'm sorry, I told everyone we're getting married.
00:40:04I panicked.
00:40:05They were gonna find out sooner or later.
00:40:07You know, now we need to...
00:40:09Pull together a quick wedding.
00:40:10Sounds easy enough.
00:40:12Oh...
00:40:13We gotta get Nico cleared for a couple hours from the hospital.
00:40:16Why?
00:40:18Don't you want your brother there?
00:40:20How would that help the plan?
00:40:24No, I mean...
00:40:26Don't you want your brother at the wedding?
00:40:28Now's not a good time.
00:40:30And...
00:40:32Besides, he'll be there when I get married for real one day.
00:40:37Yeah, no, that's fine.
00:40:39Um...
00:40:40You gotta get a...
00:40:41Get a...
00:40:42Prepared...
00:40:44Um...
00:40:45You gotta get a dress.
00:40:53I almost forgot.
00:40:54Need help?
00:40:56I think I got it.
00:40:58Please, let me help.
00:40:59It's what I'm here for.
00:41:00Are you nervous?
00:41:01Why would I be nervous?
00:41:02It's your wedding day.
00:41:03Right.
00:41:07I'm actually fine, Gideon's a great guy.
00:41:33I'm aware.
00:41:35I just mean there's nothing to be nervous about.
00:41:39I'm happy for you, both of you, but especially you.
00:41:43What an amazing accomplishment.
00:41:46You should take your seat.
00:41:48The ceremony's starting soon
00:41:49and I wanna make sure you have a great view.
00:42:03It's bad luck to see each other before the wedding.
00:42:07I know.
00:42:08I think I can afford it.
00:42:10Why's that?
00:42:11Hold on one second.
00:42:12I got a surprise for you.
00:42:14Congratulations.
00:42:17What are you doing here?
00:42:19It's your big day.
00:42:20We thought we'd surprise you.
00:42:22We?
00:42:23No.
00:42:24No.
00:42:25No.
00:42:26No.
00:42:27No.
00:42:28No.
00:42:29No.
00:42:30No.
00:42:31No.
00:42:32No.
00:42:33We?
00:42:34Me 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.
00:42:51Why did you get so old?
00:42:55We both got old way too young.
00:42:59I love that you're here.
00:43:01Okay.
00:43:02But nothing is worth risking your health.
00:43:05You're all I got.
00:43:06You know that?
00:43:09Not anymore.
00:43:14You're sure you're okay to sit through the whole ceremony?
00:43:16Oh yeah.
00:43:17Definitely good enough to have a few drinks later.
00:43:19Let's get you wifed.
00:43:24Do you, Alice, take Gideon to be your lawfully wedded husband, promising to love and cherish
00:43:29through joy and sorrow, through sickness and health and whatever challenges you may face
00:43:34as long as you both shall live?
00:43:37I do.
00:43:38Would you please exchange rings?
00:43:39I do.
00:43:39Would you please exchange rings?
00:43:44I do.
00:43:44I do.
00:43:45Would you please exchange rings?
00:43:49By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:43:55You may kiss the bride.
00:43:55I do.
00:43:56I do.
00:43:56I do.
00:43:57I do.
00:43:58I do.
00:43:59I do.
00:44:00I do.
00:44:01ANDRI.
00:44:02I do.
00:44:02I do.
00:44:03ANDRIZ.
00:44:04ISooh.
00:44:04I do.
00:44:05AndRIZ.
00:44:06cortex-
00:44:25ISALEC.
00:44:26And you're so beautiful.
00:44:56You have no idea how mad I am at you.
00:45:15You were incredible today.
00:45:19Have you ever even heard of a boundary?
00:45:22I've closed nine-figure deals on seven continents. Of course I've heard of boundaries.
00:45:28I just... I don't know. I thought you'd be more appreciative.
00:45:33How? You 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. You jeopardized his health. Do you know how big of a violation that is?
00:45:45It's fine. Kieran is driving him back as we speak. He's gonna 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.
00:46:01I'm moving to another room to tell Helga whatever you want.
00:46:05Tell her we're fighting.
00:46:07No, Alice!
00:46:21Today's the day.
00:46:23First day of the rest of my life.
00:46:26Or the last. We'll see.
00:46:27God, I hate when you say stuff like that.
00:46:30I'm just joking. Relax.
00:46:33It'll be fine.
00:46:36So, 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 gonna take you to the operating room soon, and I will be here the whole time.
00:46:53I know you will be.
00:46:57I know you will be here.
00:47:20Gideon.
00:47:22You left the house.
00:47:24It was getting stuffy in there.
00:47:28What are you doing here?
00:47:30I just, I really want to be here with you.
00:47:32I'm a nervous wreck.
00:47:33He's gonna be fine.
00:47:34You wanna know how I know?
00:47:35How?
00:47:36Because I think you promised.
00:47:37I think you promised.
00:47:38I take these so seriously.
00:47:39I'm a nervous wreck.
00:47:40I'm a nervous wreck.
00:47:41He's gonna be fine.
00:47:42You wanna know how I know?
00:47:43How?
00:47:44I'm a nervous wreck.
00:47:45I'm a nervous wreck.
00:47:46He's gonna be fine.
00:47:47You wanna know how I know?
00:47:48How?
00:47:49I'm a nervous wreck.
00:47:50I'm a nervous wreck.
00:47:51I'm a nervous wreck.
00:47:52I'm a nervous wreck.
00:47:53He's gonna be fine.
00:47:54He's gonna be fine.
00:47:55You wanna know how I know?
00:47:57How?
00:47:58How?
00:47:59Because I think you promised.
00:48:04I take these so seriously.
00:48:06Alice?
00:48:21Yes? How is Eve?
00:48:30Nico's surgery was a huge success.
00:48:34They'll bring him in here in just a moment.
00:48:35Okay. So everything went well?
00:48:38Better than we could have hoped for.
00:48:40We'll keep him for two more days,
00:48:41and then he'll be free to go home.
00:48:44Two days? Is that enough time?
00:48:47I want him to have around-the-clock medical care.
00:48:49What if there are complications?
00:48:51We don't foresee any complications.
00:48:53Money's not going to be a concern.
00:48:55Whatever it takes is fine.
00:48:56Money's not a concern for us either.
00:48:58The thing is, I don't think he needs to be here any longer.
00:49:02He'll make a speedy recovery.
00:49:04What?
00:49:05Yes, that's what I'm saying.
00:49:07What?
00:49:08Yes, that's what I'm saying.
00:49:09What?
00:49:10Yes, that's what I'm saying.
00:49:12What?
00:49:13Gideon?
00:49:14Gideon?
00:49:15Gideon?
00:49:16What?
00:49:17It's been great.
00:49:18You didn't want to think about it...
00:49:19... own streams and mountains, right?
00:49:20What?
00:49:21Yes, I'm saying.
00:49:22What?
00:49:23What?
00:49:24Gideon?
00:49:54What are you doing?
00:50:04I want this to be Nico's room.
00:50:08You don't have to do that.
00:50:10It's a big house, there 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?
00:50:24Krista.
00:50:30She was quite the artist.
00:50:32Very famous.
00:50:34I'm sure you've heard of her.
00:50:36I'm absolutely sure I haven't.
00:50:38What happened between you two?
00:50:42She lied.
00:50:43She knew I wanted an heir.
00:50:46She had me fall in love with her.
00:50:49All the while knowing that she didn't want to become a mother.
00:50:53Women have always lied.
00:50:57Even when I was a kid.
00:50:59They would lie.
00:51:00Just to come to see my house.
00:51:02And then as we grew up, it became more about the gifts and the vacations.
00:51:07My point is, I'm used to it.
00:51:10What made her different?
00:51:13She really had me fooled.
00:51:20You know I had to pay her off, just to never see her again.
00:51:26I was so angry.
00:51:31I didn't want to see anyone.
00:51:33And that's when the rumors started.
00:51:35A recluse billionaire.
00:51:37Gideon Maslow.
00:51:39Must be hard to hear people say that about you.
00:51:42No, I didn't care what they said anymore.
00:51:45I had given up on love.
00:51:47But I had never given up on an heir.
00:51:50You know, I'm not gonna 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.
00:52:05You can trust me too.
00:52:22Can I tell you a secret?
00:52:35I don't know.
00:53:05I don't know.
00:53:35I don't know.
00:54:05I don't know.
00:54:35I don't know.
00:54:37I don't know.
00:54:39I'm very pleased with the one that you referred.
00:54:43Mr. Maslow, we never referred anyone.
00:54:47Wait, what do you mean?
00:54:49I'm working with Alice Gardner.
00:54:52Who's Alice Gardner?
00:54:53Is everything okay?
00:55:03I just got off the phone with Brenda, Parkside Surrogacy.
00:55:08Gideon.
00:55:09I thought you said that I can trust you.
00:55:12God, I almost believed you.
00:55:14All the while, you've been lying to my face.
00:55:16Gideon, just let me explain.
00:55:17You are just like the rest of them.
00:55:20You know that you were...
00:55:22You're just like her.
00:55:23Okay, you're right.
00:55:24I'm no different than her.
00:55:26I lied to get close to you, and I was only in it for the money.
00:55:28But somewhere along the way, things changed.
00:55:31Okay, I 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.
00:55:44But I thought that having a contract would finally take the complications out of everything,
00:55:49letting me finally get an heir to my estate.
00:55:51God, you violated it from the start.
00:55:55You don't want an heir, Gideon.
00:55:57You want a child.
00:55:58You want to be a dad and to have a family.
00:56:00And deep down, you know that I 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.
00:56:15I feel sorry for you, Gideon.
00:56:17You have everything in this world.
00:56:19And you're going to end up with nothing.
00:56:40Oh, I didn't know you were here.
00:56:43I 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.
00:57:01But I guess she was just another one.
00:57:04It makes me question if I could be of assistance.
00:57:10Not unless you can get me an heir.
00:57:15That'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.
00:57:30Somewhere along the way, she got in your head and made it all mushy-gushy.
00:57:34What happened to you, Gideon?
00:57:36Gideon, you want an heir?
00:57:38Then you need someone you can trust.
00:57:41Someone who you don't need to worry will start feeling feelings or thinking thoughts.
00:57:48Gideon, 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.
00:58:21No.
00:58:22She 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?
00:58:56Poaching a surrogate for a contract marriage or trying to impregnate a virgin.
00:59:02Falling in love.
00:59:09Okay.
00:59:10I 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've known you longer than anyone on this planet.
00:59:29And once I finally kill that doctor, it'll be just me.
00:59:31Through 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.
00:59:46She lied to me from the very beginning, from the absolute onset, everything was built on a lie.
00:59:51But if you're going to trust something, trust your heart.
00:59:57Do you really want to lose her?
01:00:02Is it really worth that?
01:00:04So it was never real?
01:00:14It wasn't.
01:00:17Why didn't you tell me?
01:00:19I didn't think you'd understand.
01:00:21You try to protect me way too much, Alice.
01:00:23That's my job.
01:00:24And you've done a good job.
01:00:26You fixed my broken heart.
01:00:30But now I can do all the things that we dreamed about when we were kids.
01:00:34I don't need a mom.
01:00:36I need a sister.
01:00:39I love you so much.
01:00:43Can I tell you something?
01:00:45Always.
01:00:47I really loved him too.
01:00:54I'm going to go to my room.
01:01:22Be nice.
01:01:23Hi.
01:01:24I'm sorry for lying to you.
01:01:29No, I'm sorry for giving it all up and wanting to throw it all away.
01:01:34That's not what you do.
01:01:36You know when you love someone.
01:01:40I love you, Alice.
01:01:44I love you, Gideon.
01:01:46I want to be with you and I want a family with you.
01:01:50That's what I want.
01:01:51I want you forever.
01:01:52What is that?
01:02:04I felt a bit weird this morning, so I thought I'd check.
01:02:13I don't know.
