00:00:00Carter and Nora, my husband and daughter, my whole world.
00:00:07I grabbed all this stuff to whip up a special dinner for our wedding anniversary.
00:00:15Daddy, will she like my present?
00:00:18She'll love anything you make her.
00:00:23It's almost time.
00:00:25Let's go get the cake.
00:00:30They remembered.
00:00:39This must be my anniversary gift from Nora.
00:00:42Mommy?
00:00:45Hey, baby.
00:00:47Carter, I got you your favorite lobster and I got Nora her favorite apple pie.
00:00:52I'm going to make a feast for our anniversary.
00:00:54Mommy, why are you wearing the brooch I made for Miss Ashley?
00:00:57Miss Ashley? Your teacher?
00:01:00Why are you wearing my clothes in my bedroom?
00:01:14Oh, these little things?
00:01:16No wonder the top is a little snug and the waist is loose.
00:01:19Ashley got so bathing Nora.
00:01:20Your closet was convenient.
00:01:21You never liked me wearing bright colors, but I guess you're fine with the colors.
00:01:26You just don't like me wearing them.
00:01:28Mommy, give the brooch back to Miss Ashley.
00:01:30I spent all day making it special for her birthday.
00:01:32You threw her a birthday party in my house on our wedding anniversary?
00:01:54You threw her a birthday party in my house on our wedding anniversary?
00:02:03Our anniversary? Big deal.
00:02:05Oh, I'm so sorry. I had no idea it was your anniversary.
00:02:09Carter didn't mention it.
00:02:11Nora, it's your mother's special day.
00:02:13If she wants the brooch so badly, she can keep it.
00:02:16I already know how much you love me.
00:02:17No, it's for you.
00:02:19Mommy can't have it.
00:02:21Give it back. It looks ugly on you.
00:02:26Yes, I got it.
00:02:28Here you go, Miss Ashley.
00:02:29It'll look way better on you than Mommy.
00:02:31Nora, I'm your mother.
00:02:33Why are you doing this to me?
00:02:35That's my sweet girl. Thank you, Nora.
00:02:37And thank you for the party, Carter.
00:02:41I've waited years for that smile.
00:02:43But now it's for another woman.
00:02:44I'm your mother.
00:02:47Carter, why don't we go and check and see if my clothes are dry?
00:02:55They look perfect, like a family.
00:02:59And I'm just a ghost in my own home.
00:03:03Nine years ago, I finally gathered up the courage to ask out Carter,
00:03:07who I'd had a crush on for years.
00:03:10Carter, I've had feelings for you for so long.
00:03:15Love me.
00:03:17After that insane night, I married the love of my life.
00:03:35Don't think drugging me and chopping me with a baby makes you my wife.
00:03:39You're just another gold digger.
00:03:41I did.
00:03:42Even though I was never his.
00:03:47Mr. Collins, your wife and baby are in critical condition.
00:03:51We need you to decide.
00:03:52Save the mother or the baby.
00:03:55That's all I care about, save the baby.
00:03:57I survived only to be crippled by duty and guilt.
00:04:02Your daughter's premature and very fragile.
00:04:05Look how weak she is.
00:04:07She will always need to be on a strict diet for her health.
00:04:10This is all your fault!
00:04:13I put a promising career on hold.
00:04:16Dedicated myself to becoming the perfect Mrs. Collins.
00:04:19I became the whole package.
00:04:23The perfect homemaker.
00:04:24A nutritionist.
00:04:25Old meal again?
00:04:26I hate it!
00:04:27I want french fries!
00:04:28I gave it my all.
00:04:30Everything I had for your happiness.
00:04:33But where it was mine?
00:04:38Nora, the restaurant we're going to has those french fries you love.
00:04:42Yes!
00:04:43Miss Ashley, I want you to be my mommy.
00:04:44My husband doesn't love me.
00:04:49My child doesn't want me.
00:04:52I have no reason to stay home anymore.
00:04:57Carter.
00:05:02Sign this.
00:05:08Carter.
00:05:11Sign this.
00:05:12Um, Carter, could you help me with my coat, please?
00:05:17Of course.
00:05:19You didn't even read it.
00:05:21Just signed our marriage away like it was nothing.
00:05:25But the prenup?
00:05:27You scrutinized every comma.
00:05:30All right, come on.
00:05:31Our reservation's on myself.
00:05:32Do you even know what you just signed?
00:05:35Nora's insurance paperwork.
00:05:37You worry too much.
00:05:39Can't you see I'm busy?
00:05:44Don't bother me with trivial matters.
00:05:52This is the last time I'll ever bother you with trivial matters.
00:05:56I'm taking what's left of me and burning the rest.
00:06:10Goodbye, Carter.
00:06:12Goodbye, Nora.
00:06:13Daddy, where's mommy?
00:06:31I want my strawberry milkshake.
00:06:33Probably tired and went to bed early.
00:06:34Daddy, mommy doesn't let me eat snacks, but her strawberry milkshake is so good.
00:06:40I want one now.
00:06:41We can go wake her up if you want to.
00:06:46Sir, I know it's not my place, but Mrs. Collins has been so devoted to this family.
00:06:55Today, today broke her.
00:06:58What are you talking about?
00:07:00Mr. Collins, you know how much she cares for you.
00:07:03Don't touch me.
00:07:28Are you trying to drug me again?
00:07:31You're burning up.
00:07:32Where are you taking me?
00:07:37The hospital.
00:07:42She asked me to give you this before she left tonight.
00:07:46It's your signed copy.
00:07:48What do you mean she left?
00:07:49Ashley.
00:08:05Ashley.
00:08:06Carter, I think I left my favorite earrings in your bed.
00:08:09I'll go check.
00:08:10Yep, found them.
00:08:15They'll be waiting for you when you get back.
00:08:19Sir, the documents.
00:08:23Put them in my office.
00:08:25I'll look at them later.
00:08:26Yes, sir.
00:08:27And don't be fooled, Helen.
00:08:28She may love me, but she loves being Mrs. Collins more than anything.
00:08:35Daddy, Mommy left?
00:08:38Where is she?
00:08:39I want my strawberry milkshake.
00:08:41Don't worry, baby.
00:08:42She'll be back.
00:08:43She's got nowhere else to go.
00:08:44Welcome back, Dr. Zoe.
00:09:06Welcome back, Dr. Zoe.
00:09:10Zoe, you're finally back.
00:09:12Director, it's been too long.
00:09:16You know, if you hadn't left for marriage, you'd be running this place by now.
00:09:20Thank God you're back.
00:09:22I thought you'd be locked in that house forever.
00:09:24Well, I'm getting a divorce.
00:09:25I filed the papers, and in a month, I'll be free.
00:09:29Divorced?
00:09:40I'd say congratulations.
00:09:42Then welcome back, Zoe.
00:09:44Ethan, it's been a while.
00:09:51My research, my notes, the only things from this house still worth taking.
00:10:01Mommy?
00:10:02Who are you expecting?
00:10:03Nora, you shouldn't watch the iPad for so long.
00:10:14It's bad for your eyes.
00:10:19Miss Ashley lets me.
00:10:21You're always ruining everything.
00:10:23Nora!
00:10:24Get out.
00:10:24I don't want to hear you anymore.
00:10:25Nora!
00:10:26I don't want to hear you anymore.
00:10:27I don't want to hear you anymore.
00:10:28I don't want to hear you anymore.
00:10:29Nora!
00:10:30Nora, it's been three hours.
00:10:32Open the door.
00:10:33No, you're annoying.
00:10:34Miss Ashley will come play with me.
00:10:36Nora!
00:10:39Miss Ashley, I missed you!
00:10:42Why is this annoying brat always here?
00:10:45Fine.
00:10:46At least I could use her to get closer to Carter.
00:10:49Nora, let Mommy in.
00:10:51It's so cold.
00:10:54Daddy, Miss Ashley, let's play Lego.
00:10:56When did Nora start hating me?
00:11:01Mommy!
00:11:02Hugs!
00:11:05I love you, Mommy.
00:11:06Nora, let's go.
00:11:09Your grandparents are waiting.
00:11:11Mommy comes too?
00:11:12No.
00:11:15She can't.
00:11:16The doctor said Nora needs more protein at this stage.
00:11:22I'll make her favorite fish today.
00:11:23Promise me you won't grow up to be like your mom.
00:11:26She's just a housewife.
00:11:28She cooks and cleans all day and is totally dependent on your dad.
00:11:31It's sad.
00:11:33Mommy is sad?
00:11:34Miss Ashley, I wish you were my mommy.
00:11:53Oh, yes.
00:12:10This is college!
00:12:14Your body temperature dropped dangerously low,
00:12:17and if it weren't for your nanny finding you,
00:12:19you wouldn't have made it.
00:12:21Now you just need plenty of rest and to stay warm.
00:12:24My own child almost killed me.
00:12:33Thanks.
00:12:35Zoe?
00:12:36What are you doing here?
00:12:38God, you're pale.
00:12:40Is everything okay?
00:12:42I'm okay.
00:12:43Ms. Zoe!
00:12:46You're Mia.
00:12:48Yeah.
00:12:49Remember this little one?
00:12:51When the car accident took my sister and brother-in-law three years ago,
00:12:54and I was too busy and overwhelmed,
00:12:56so I asked you to help me look after her for a few days.
00:13:00She hasn't stopped talking about you since.
00:13:02I missed you so much, Ms. Zoe.
00:13:04You gave me this bunny.
00:13:06I named her Bun Bun.
00:13:08I sleep with her every single night.
00:13:10I really, really like you, Ms. Zoe.
00:13:13I watched this kid for a week, just a week, and she never forgot me.
00:13:24Do you wanna have Bun Bun, Ms. Zoe?
00:13:26But my own daughter?
00:13:27The one I gave everything to?
00:13:29She locked me out on that freezing balcony just to get away from me.
00:13:33You're always ruining everything!
00:13:36Nora!
00:13:44Ethan, take me back to the Collins house.
00:13:48I wanna get my research.
00:13:50I'm cutting ties with that house.
00:13:52With that life for good.
00:13:54Mommy?
00:13:59Mrs. Collins!
00:14:01Thank goodness you're all right!
00:14:03Mr. Collins is in his office.
00:14:05I'll let him know that you're back.
00:14:06Don't bother.
00:14:07I won't be staying long.
00:14:12It was just a goof last night.
00:14:14Mommy's fine now.
00:14:19Mommy, where are you going?
00:14:21I'm leaving this house.
00:14:25Nora, try to eat something healthy.
00:14:28Not just snacks.
00:14:30And don't watch the screen all day.
00:14:32Your health is the only thing I was concerned about.
00:14:34And, baby, whatever happens, just take care of yourself.
00:14:45Mommy?
00:14:51Goodbye, Carter and Nora.
00:14:55Let's go.
00:15:00Okay.
00:15:01I'm gonna shoot the paperwork over in the morning and seal the deal.
00:15:07Wait.
00:15:08Is this the document Zoe had me signed before?
00:15:10Daddy!
00:15:11Mom!
00:15:12Mommy's leaving!
00:15:17Mommy's leaving!
00:15:19She didn't stay, huh?
00:15:20Maybe she went to see Grandma in Europe.
00:15:23Relax.
00:15:25She'll be back.
00:15:26Weird.
00:15:28Zoe didn't tell me this time.
00:15:30Whatever.
00:15:34Can we go see Grandma too?
00:15:35You wanna go?
00:15:36Oh!
00:15:37Oh!
00:15:38Miss Ashley is inviting us skiing tomorrow!
00:15:47Zoe.
00:15:48If you need a place to stay, I have an extra apartment by the lab.
00:15:51And don't worry about imposing.
00:15:53It's just sitting empty.
00:15:55Thank you, Ethan.
00:15:57I owe you.
00:16:03A whole week?
00:16:04Mommy didn't call me.
00:16:05She used to call me.
00:16:06She used to call me every day.
00:16:10Come on!
00:16:16Good morning, Miss Zoe!
00:16:18Good morning, Mia!
00:16:24Good morning, Miss Zoe!
00:16:26Good morning, Mia!
00:16:27Hi, Mia.
00:16:29Hi, Zoe.
00:16:30You look well.
00:16:31You settling in all right?
00:16:32Yeah, absolutely.
00:16:34Well, Mia and I were thinking about going to the grocery store.
00:16:37Yeah.
00:16:38Figured you were still unpacking and couldn't use a little trip.
00:16:40You wanna join us?
00:16:42Please, Miss Zoe.
00:16:45Okay.
00:16:46I just have to get changed really quick.
00:16:48We'll wait outside.
00:16:52It must be Mommy!
00:16:53Mommy?
00:16:56Hey, sweetie.
00:16:57It's Ashley.
00:16:59Oh.
00:17:00It's Ashley.
00:17:01Your dad told me you love picnics.
00:17:02So, we're going tomorrow.
00:17:04Just you, me, and him.
00:17:06Yeah.
00:17:07Yeah, I love picnics.
00:17:08Great.
00:17:09Let's go to the supermarket today to get some supplies.
00:17:11Okay!
00:17:20Are they okay?
00:17:21I think I got something in my eye.
00:17:23Hey, come here.
00:17:24Let me take a look.
00:17:26Hold yourself.
00:17:27Oh, it's not last year.
00:17:36Why is Mommy holding that other kid's hand?
00:17:38And why is she kissing that other uncle?
00:17:40Does she have a new family now?
00:17:42Does she have a new family now?
00:17:44Zoe, what the hell are you doing?
00:17:51No.
00:17:56So, did Mommy, like, disappear?
00:17:58What's wrong?
00:18:00Nothing.
00:18:01It's just a trick of the light.
00:18:03Probably.
00:18:05Zoe couldn't be here.
00:18:06That woman lives with Nora and me.
00:18:08She'd never be with another man and child.
00:18:11I'm just over-tired.
00:18:13Come on.
00:18:14Let's get out of here.
00:18:15You can set those there.
00:18:27Thank you for everything.
00:18:29You don't have to thank me.
00:18:30You were here for Mia when I couldn't be.
00:18:34But the rent.
00:18:35I-
00:18:36Just be here for Mia when you can.
00:18:39That's all I ask.
00:18:41She misses you.
00:18:43And honestly, so do I.
00:18:46Please, Ms. Zoe.
00:18:47You'll play with me?
00:18:48And bun bun?
00:18:50Of course I'll play with you.
00:18:52Pinky's where?
00:18:55Is that a wound on your finger?
00:18:57Does it hurt?
00:19:07It was kind of a wound, but it's fading.
00:19:10And soon it'll be gone forever.
00:19:20It's...
00:19:22Zoe's wedding ring.
00:19:24Ellen?
00:19:26When was Zoe here last?
00:19:28Uh, about a week ago, Mr. Collins?
00:19:31She ditched her ring.
00:19:33What game is she playing now?
00:19:39What's wrong with the coffee?
00:19:41I'm sorry, Mr. Collins.
00:19:43I...
00:19:44I can't make it right the way Mrs. Collins did.
00:19:47She always knew how long to steep the coffee.
00:19:51Perfect every time.
00:19:54Ew.
00:19:58This cake tastes weird.
00:19:59Not like before.
00:20:01Your mother used to bake the cakes.
00:20:05She worked so hard to make it healthy and taste right.
00:20:10I'll do my best.
00:20:12But it's not the same.
00:20:14Daddy, will you call Mommy?
00:20:16I'm making this call for you, Nora.
00:20:17Not for myself.
00:20:18What?
00:20:19Mommy never misses your calls.
00:20:20What's this, Zoe?
00:20:21Playing hard to get.

00:48:24you made her mad. I didn't. Whatever. She's my mommy. She'll forgive me. Nora, even if
00:48:34she's your mommy, if you keep making her mad, she'll be very upset. And if you're not nice
00:48:41to her, she doesn't have to stay your mommy. She could go be someone else's mommy. No. She
00:48:48wouldn't. She's my mommy. Nora, you've called ten times. Parent day is about to start. Come

00:49:40and she wants to head home. Okay. We'll head back right away. Good. So, Mia, did you have
00:49:55fun today? Yes. All my friends were so jealous because he has the coolest and the most beautiful
00:50:01list. Thank you so much, Ms. Zoe. Of course. Ms. Zoe, I can tell you Uncle Ethan's secret
00:50:12as a thank you. Okay. I'm all ears. Uncle Ethan had a crush on you for a long time. He still
00:50:21does. Uncle Ethan had a crush on you for a long time. He still does. Um, Uncle Ethan's adopting
00:50:38me and Ms. Zoe was going to ask you to be my real mom. Because I really love me like a mom.
00:50:47And if you don't like Uncle Ethan, that's okay. Um, I don't need him. I only need you.
00:50:54You're everything. Spilling your uncle's tea and then throwing him under the bus.
00:51:01What a frascals. I'm sorry, but is that a yes or a no, Ms. Zoe?
00:51:10Yes, Mia. I'll be your mom. But you have to promise me something, too.
00:51:15Yes. You cannot tell Uncle Ethan.
00:51:19But why? Because that's Uncle Ethan's secret. Okay, we have to pretend that we don't know
00:51:24it. That's the respectful thing to do. Okay, Ms. Zoe. And besides, I trust Ethan. If he
00:51:32really likes me, I know he'll tell me. Okay.
00:51:43Ashley said you came home upset. What happened?
00:51:46Daddy, today was parents' day. And I called Mommy, begged her to come, but she said no.
00:51:51Nora, even if she's your mommy, if you're not nice to her, she doesn't understand your
00:52:00mommy. She could go be someone else's mommy.
00:52:06Daddy, is Mommy still mad at me? Does she want to be someone else's mommy? Does she don't
00:52:12want me anymore? No. Your mom would never, ever leave you.
00:52:18I've been so mean to her. I didn't want to fight. I really didn't. I... And I didn't mean
00:52:23to lock her on the balcony all night. I just forgot.
00:52:26What? You locked her on the balcony all night?
00:52:32Nora, what the heck happened?
00:52:35You locked her on the balcony all night?
00:52:37Nora, what the heck happened?
00:52:43Mr. Collins, it's true. I found Mrs. Collins locked out on the balcony all night.
00:52:51You're always ruining everything.
00:52:53Nora! Get out. I don't want to hear you anymore.
00:52:56Nora!
00:52:58She was unconscious from the cold, so I took her to the hospital.
00:53:05What do you have to say to yourself?
00:53:07I didn't mean to. Mommy was nagging me, so I pushed her all onto the balcony and locked
00:53:12the door. I just need her to be quiet.
00:53:15Look, Nora. Your mom nags because she loves you. But locking her out is dangerous. Look
00:53:22what happened. She ended up in the hospital.
00:53:24I'm really sorry. I messed up.
00:53:28That's why Zoe wouldn't come home. She must have been holding a grudge all along. We're
00:53:32apologizing to your mother. Do you understand?
00:53:34What? If I apologize to her, will she come back?
00:53:41She will.
00:53:43What's with the panic? This isn't me.
00:53:46Zoe loves us. She'll come around.
00:53:48So, is this where Mommy's staying now?
00:53:55According to Lucentown, yes.
00:54:00You're here.
00:54:02Mommy.
00:54:03Zoe.
00:54:04Cut this out.
00:54:06Come home with us.
00:54:07Mommy, open the door.
00:54:16Don't be mad at me anymore.
00:54:17Zoe, stop being petty.
00:54:19I know you're mad Nora locked you out all night, but she's just a kid. It was an accident.
00:54:23Are you seriously this upset?
00:54:24Carter, unbelievable.
00:54:33Still so arrogant after all these years.
00:54:35Just like now, you don't know what I've been through.
00:54:38And you don't know half the pain that you've caused me.
00:54:41Do not come back here.
00:54:43Ever.
00:54:44What does she mean by that?
00:54:50That she's been hurt again.
00:54:54Mr. Collins, I found Mrs. Collins' record.
00:54:57Turns out, besides the hypothermia, she also had a drowning incident.
00:55:01Here's everything on Mrs. Collins.
00:55:03She showed up a month ago with hypothermia, and then more recently, a near drowning.
00:55:07Docs say she'd been in the water for hours.
00:55:09She's still recovering from it all.
00:55:10No way.
00:55:20She knows how to swim.
00:55:22And she's the one who pushed Ashley in.
00:55:25For a damn necklace.
00:55:27Mr. Collins, if she really could swim, she wouldn't have been out there that long.
00:55:30Docs say that if Ethan West hadn't gotten there in time, she wouldn't have made it.
00:55:35Does that mean Ashley's lying?
00:55:36Find out everything you can about Ashley Grant.
00:55:40Now.
00:55:56What's wrong?
00:55:58Everything okay?
00:56:00It's nothing.
00:56:01Carter and Nora came by yesterday.
00:56:06I don't know how they found out that I live here.
00:56:10What'd they want?
00:56:11Begging for me to come home, as usual.
00:56:20Don't.
00:56:21Joey.
00:56:22Please, please do not listen to them.
00:56:26I can't lose you again.
00:56:28Because.
00:56:32I love you.
00:56:37I love you.
00:56:40I know you're going through a bit of a rough patch right now.
00:56:43And maybe you're not ready to date.
00:56:45But.
00:56:45I needed to tell you this.
00:56:49You have my heart.
00:56:50Ethan.
00:56:59Ethan.
00:57:00I promise.
00:57:02Once the divorce is final between Carter and I.
00:57:05I'll think about this.
00:57:07About us.
00:57:08Thanks, Sophie.
00:57:19I'm not going anywhere.
00:57:21Take as much time as you need.
00:57:24I'll be right here when you're ready.
00:57:25Mr. Collins.
00:57:33Found some dirt on Ashley.
00:57:34Turns out she worked at the same hotel where you got drugged years ago.
00:57:37Nine years ago, she was in college and she spotted you sitting alone at the bar.
00:57:43When you stepped away, she spiked your drink to make a move on you.
00:57:46Good thing you ran into Mrs. Collins instead.
00:57:47It didn't go down what she planned.
00:57:49What?
00:57:50The owner spilled everything.
00:57:52Nine years back, Ashley paid him off to keep quiet.
00:57:54To stop their offer.
00:57:55She's the real creepier, Mr. Collins.
00:57:58She was the one plotting to get you into bed.
00:58:02This can't be real.
00:58:04All this time I was hating the wrong person.
00:58:07Nine years.
00:58:08I never gave her a second glance.
00:58:11And all along I was blaming the wrong person.
00:58:14Ashley, this is all your fault.
00:58:21Luke, bring her to me.
00:58:24Time to settle this once and for all.
00:58:38Hmm.
00:58:39Having Luke drag me over this late?
00:58:42Is Carter looking for some late night action?
00:58:45Too bad I didn't slip into my sexiest lingerie.
00:58:50Explain this now.
00:58:54Carter, where did you get this picture?
00:58:58This is some kind of misunderstanding.
00:59:00This is...
00:59:02Bullshit.
00:59:05Luke dug up the whole story.
00:59:07Ashley Grant.
00:59:09It was you who drug me nine years ago.
00:59:11It was you who drug me nine years ago.
00:59:14No, no, no.
00:59:16You know how much I love you.
00:59:20All these years I hated Zoe for nothing.
00:59:23All my rage.
00:59:24All because I got played.
00:59:26To think the whole time
00:59:28the real culprit was right under my nose.
00:59:31I can't wrap my head with it.
00:59:37Keep up the lies.
00:59:39I'll make you talk.
00:59:41The Collins family has ways of getting answers.
00:59:43The big bad Collins heir.
00:59:49Such a big shot.
00:59:51I was hooked the minute I laid eyes on you.
00:59:53So I drugged you.
00:59:55And I set the whole thing up.
00:59:57And all of it, all of it just gift-wrapped you for that bitch Zoe.
01:00:01Why did she get to marry you?
01:00:03I loved you the most.
01:00:04But no, no.
01:00:05She got your bed.
01:00:06She got your kid.
01:00:07A damn daughter.
01:00:08He ties you down.
01:00:09That should have been me.
01:00:10That's not fair.
01:00:11I should have been Mrs. Collins.
01:00:12You're insane.
01:00:14Yeah.
01:00:15I'm insane.
01:00:17I became Nora's teacher to get close to you.
01:00:20I used her.
01:00:22It was a piece of cake.
01:00:24You all despised Zoe so much.
01:00:26All I had to do were plant a couple of whispers.
01:00:29And bam.
01:00:30You dumped her like trash.
01:00:32A day at the pool.
01:00:35She snatched the necklace.
01:00:37I just wanted the gift you gave me back.
01:00:39She tried to drown me.
01:00:40You did that on purpose to say Zoe.
01:00:43Duh.
01:00:44I made a bet with her.
01:00:46To see which one of us her family would save.
01:00:48I grabbed her hand.
01:00:50And I acted like she was trying to take the necklace.
01:00:52And then I pulled us both under.
01:00:55And you actually saved me.
01:00:57You didn't let me down.
01:00:59You should have seen the look on her face while she was stuck in that pool.
01:01:04Priceless.
01:01:08Shame you didn't catch it.
01:01:10I can't believe I let a snake like you near Nora.
01:01:14Near us.
01:01:16And I let you hurt Zoe.
01:01:17How hilarious.
01:01:19You and Nora let me get away with everything.
01:01:22Again and again.
01:01:24You let me take Zoe's place.
01:01:26Luke!
01:01:27Get her out of here.
01:01:29I don't want her stepping foot in this country again.
01:01:32Ever.
01:01:34Zoe will never come back to you.
01:01:36Never!
01:01:43No way.
01:01:46Zoe loved me.
01:01:48She put up with my bullshit for nine years.
01:01:52She never even pushed for a divorce.
01:01:53If I just say sorry,
01:01:56I really mean it.
01:01:57She'll come back.
01:02:00She has to.
01:02:01No.
01:02:10Zoe, please.
01:02:11Just listen to me.
01:02:12We're done.
01:02:13Get out now.
01:02:14I'm calling security.
01:02:15No, Zoe.
01:02:16Listen.
01:02:16So this is what it felt like that night on the balcony.
01:02:29If I freeze out here all night too,
01:02:30maybe you'll have to forgive me.
01:02:36Now, and then push the gate with me.
01:02:38Okay?
01:02:39Yeah.
01:02:39That was fun though, huh?
01:02:40Zoe, are you serious?
01:02:56Are you that desperate for the next guy?
01:02:59What are you doing here?
01:03:00Why shouldn't I be here?
01:03:02I'm waiting for my wife.
01:03:05You.
01:03:06No wonder you wouldn't cooperate with me, Ethan West.
01:03:10You're trying to make a play for my wife?
01:03:12Tough luck!
01:03:13She's still mine.
01:03:15Carter, we're officially divorced as of today.
01:03:18Stop saying things just to piss me off.
01:03:20Seriously?
01:03:21You couldn't even bother to glance at what you signed over a month ago?
01:03:24See, that's your arrogance.
01:03:26You never appreciated anything that I gave you.
01:03:30Well, fine.
01:03:31That's the last thing you'll ever get from me.
01:03:46We're officially divorced as of today.
01:03:50Where the hell is it?
01:03:56Come on, come on, come on.
01:04:11It was from that time when...
01:04:15Sign this.
01:04:18God, I screwed this up.
01:04:20Why didn't I even look at it?
01:04:24You can go and find a new wife now.
01:04:27Carter and I are done.
01:04:29Carter.
01:04:31Unbelievable.
01:04:32Still so arrogant after all these years.
01:04:34Just like now.
01:04:35You don't know what I've been through.
01:04:37And you don't know half the pain that you've caused me.
01:04:40I ended it.
01:04:48I ended it.
01:04:50I had the rest of the way and didn't even know it.
01:04:55No, I'm not the voice.
01:04:57I'm going to go down there right now and pull the papers.
01:04:59I'm calling the whole thing off.
01:05:01I'm calling the whole thing off based on time.
01:05:03Mr. Collins.
01:05:05This just came in from the courthouse.
01:05:07How did we get here?
01:05:29Is it really too late?
01:05:33Divorce?
01:05:34For real?
01:05:39Divorce?
01:05:40Daddy, are you and Rami really breaking up?
01:05:45No.
01:05:47No, we're not.
01:05:47Nora, we'll go together.
01:05:53We'll apologize.
01:05:55Beg her to come back.
01:05:56She's too self-hearted.
01:05:58She loves us too much to have her really leave.
01:06:11Ladies and gentlemen, the Nobel Prize ceremony will begin at this time.
01:06:15Will our distinguished nominees please make your way down to your seats?
01:06:19Zoe, good luck.
01:06:22When I lose, we'll be right here cheering you on.
01:06:29Zoe, I've searched everywhere for you.
01:06:34I finally tracked you down here.
01:06:36I get it now.
01:06:37I know what you've been through.
01:06:39Everything.
01:06:41I'm so sorry.
01:06:43Please forgive me.
01:06:46Mommy, I'm sorry.
01:06:48Please, please come home.
01:06:50I swear I'll never play with Miss Ashley again.
01:06:52I promise.
01:06:56Please don't give up on us.
01:06:58Just give us one more chance.
01:07:01Just give us one more chance.
01:07:04You're blocking me from my prize.
01:07:07You?
01:07:09You're receiving a prize?
01:07:10And the Nobel Prize in Medicine goes to Dr. Zoe and her team.
01:07:16What an incredible honor.
01:07:29I'd like to thank the Institute Director and my dear friend, Selena.
01:07:32I'd also like to thank my family, Ethan and Mia.
01:07:37Without you, I wouldn't be here.
01:07:39The honor is ours.
01:07:40Thank you all so much.
01:07:42Aren't we a mom's family?
01:07:54Congratulations.
01:07:55I love you.
01:07:58It's too late to apologize.
01:08:00I love you.
01:08:01I love you.
