Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Mr. Marco had a widow named Ava Jackson, and she was carrying his child.
00:00:07I'm going to bring my daughter-in-law home, where she belongs.
00:00:13My brother, I will protect your legacy, and I will protect our family.
00:00:18Who are you, really?
00:00:21A mere day she has swung a lot of family out of millions of dollars.
00:00:26I've wanted Luca for years, and then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks.
00:00:32If I can't have him, I'll destroy him.
00:00:36Your life belongs to us.
00:00:39Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.
00:00:44From this moment forward, I swear that nobody will ever eat me.
00:00:50I guess my brother had good reason to fall for her.
00:00:56Ava, you're so close.
00:01:01Is this a dream?
00:01:03If anyone sees us like this, then immediately send them first.
00:01:08Ava, I have followed my love with you.
00:01:11I'm your brother's wife.
00:01:13We didn't do anything wrong, so why are you worried?
00:01:15If you knew I had feelings for your brother, would you hate me?
00:01:19I should never have let you go undercover on that damn business deal.
00:01:37I've never even got to say goodbye.
00:01:39Marco, my brother, I will protect your legacy.
00:01:43And I will protect our family.
00:01:51Hey, hey! Who are you?
00:01:53Which family do you work for?
00:01:55I just came to drop off the flowers. I didn't mean to reach you.
00:01:58Luca, look at her.
00:02:00She's hardly a threat.
00:02:08For the flowers.
00:02:09And for the interruption.
00:02:12My apologies.
00:02:13My apologies.
00:02:24Senor Mancini?
00:02:25Mr. Marco had a widow named Eva Jackson.
00:02:27And she was carrying his child.
00:02:31Get the car.
00:02:33Let me bring my daughter-in-law home.
00:02:35Where she belongs.
00:02:43Don't worry, little one.
00:02:46We'll get through this together.
00:02:49Somehow.
00:02:53Well, looky here.
00:02:55Family Jinx is finally six feet under.
00:03:06Derek!
00:03:07Have you lost your mind?
00:03:08What the hell was that?
00:03:10Don't tell me that you're actually planning on keeping that little parasite.
00:03:14This is Marco's baby.
00:03:17This is our child.
00:03:19Of course I'm keeping it.
00:03:21Ever since you got knocked up, you've done nothing to help this family.
00:03:25We've been struggling while you've been out here playing the grieving widow.
00:03:29Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.
00:03:33Because you owe me.
00:03:34This is your fault.
00:03:36I dropped out of college for this family.
00:03:39I took five jobs.
00:03:40What more could you possibly want?
00:03:41You'll never be enough, Eva.
00:03:42You'll owe us to the day you die.
00:03:44Please.
00:03:45Sweetheart.
00:03:46Think of your brother.
00:03:47I'm gonna stomp out that little bastard right now.
00:04:02Send him straight to hell.
00:04:04So he can say hello to his deadbeat dad.
00:04:08Hex!
00:04:09What the hell is going on here? Who the hell are you people?
00:04:31Eva, right?
00:04:33You were here this morning.
00:04:34Enough, Luca.
00:04:37She's hardly up to that.
00:04:41Ma'am?
00:04:43I'm Helena Mancini.
00:04:45Marco's mother.
00:04:49That means I'm your baby's grandmother.
00:04:53The most powerful mafia family in the country.
00:04:58Marco was my oldest.
00:05:00He was my golden boy.
00:05:01I am so sorry that he concealed his identity from you.
00:05:06You have endured far too much suffering because of it.
00:05:13Playing make-believe Mancini?
00:05:16Seriously, like is anybody here actually buying this?
00:05:19Question my identity again.
00:05:21And my men will make sure your other leg looks like your first one.
00:05:26Permanently.
00:05:28What are you doing?
00:05:30Derek, run!
00:05:32Maybe we should just go.
00:05:34One moment here.
00:05:36Anyone who raises a hand to my daughter-in-law deserves to have their fingers snapped.
00:05:43One.
00:05:45By.
00:05:46One.
00:05:48Come along, my dear.
00:05:50Let's get you home.
00:05:52To your real home.
00:05:53Welcome home, Signora Eva Mancini.
00:05:54This is where Marco lives.
00:05:55And here's my home.
00:05:56I'm so sorry.
00:05:57I'm so sorry.
00:05:58I'm so sorry.
00:06:00I'm so sorry.
00:06:01I'm so sorry.
00:06:02I'm so sorry.
00:06:03I'm so sorry.
00:06:05I'm so sorry.
00:06:06I'm so sorry.
00:06:07So...
00:06:17Welcome home, Signora Eva Mancini.
00:06:19This is where Marco lives.
00:06:23And now, it's your home too.
00:06:24It's your home, too.
00:06:30Allow me to introduce you to your personal staff, Mrs. Mancini.
00:06:35Your nutritionist, nanny, maternity nurse, each the finest specialist money can acquire.
00:06:39We pledge your absolute dedication to your health and well-being, signore.
00:06:46War days of working multiple jobs.
00:06:48I hope, my dear, $10 million is a little spending money.
00:06:52Well, thank you, but I can't accept this.
00:06:57I married Marco for love, not for his fortune.
00:07:02Practical and principled, my Marco truly had an eye for quality.
00:07:07There is one more member of the family that you need to properly meet.
00:07:13That would be Luca, Marco's younger brother.
00:07:16The brooding iceberg that you encountered this morning.
00:07:19Well, well, well.
00:07:20There's a flower girl in the cemetery.
00:07:24Luca, come meet Ava, your brother's wife.
00:07:28Please, show her proper.
00:07:33Respect!
00:07:35You walk back into a Mancini household?
00:07:39You're either incredibly stupid or incredibly brave.
00:07:44Luca!
00:07:45Open this door immediately!
00:07:46Everyone, around back, now!
00:07:53Who are you, really?
00:07:56I'll be watching your every move, your every breath.
00:08:02So tell me, who are you, really?
00:08:06My brother's dead, and you appear suddenly?
00:08:09Was this your endgame all along?
00:08:12Our fortune?
00:08:13I didn't know Marco's a Mancini.
00:08:15And now?
00:08:16I don't need this.
00:08:17I can walk right out those doors.
00:08:18You can't walk anywhere!
00:08:20She's not going anywhere!
00:08:25And get your hands off of her!
00:08:27She is carrying Marco's child.
00:08:30Oh, is she?
00:08:31How do we even know it is Marco's child?
00:08:33Convenient timing, wouldn't you say?
00:08:35Questioning on you, Marco, don't you dare question my child.
00:08:43That's my girl.
00:08:44Backbone of steel.
00:08:46Are you hurt?
00:08:49Luca, you are too rude.
00:08:51Ava is a good girl.
00:08:53You are falsely accusing her.
00:08:55Come on, sweetie.
00:08:56Mom's going to take you and get some clothes.
00:08:58Pay no attention to this fool.
00:09:00You may be fooling them.
00:09:06But I will find out about you, and I will expose you.
00:09:23These are all the latest European styles.
00:09:27Take your pick.
00:09:27I have plenty to wear.
00:09:30And these are much too expensive.
00:09:32Oh, not to worry.
00:09:34It's all on Luca's card.
00:09:36Treat my dear daughter-in-law well.
00:09:38I'll see you next time.
00:09:38I'll see you next time.
00:09:57Oh, isn't she gorgeous?
00:10:19She's adequate.
00:10:22Always the tough guy act with you.
00:10:27Your eyes tell a different story, my son.
00:10:31Oh, yes.
00:10:32This is just perfect.
00:10:34We will take one of everything in her size.
00:10:38Mom.
00:10:40Mom.
00:10:42That's too generous.
00:10:43Nonsense.
00:10:45We're family now.
00:10:47I am putting Luca's contact info into your phone.
00:10:52Reach out to him.
00:10:53Whatever you need.
00:10:55And don't worry.
00:10:56He's actually quite a softie.
00:11:00Now, shall we continue shopping?
00:11:02Yes.
00:11:02Sir.
00:11:07Yes.
00:11:08Your mother has spent approximately $15 million on Miss Jackson in the last week of the world.
00:11:14God.
00:11:15In mere days, she has swung the dollar family out of millions of dollars.
00:11:20She's clearly not an amateur.
00:11:21She's also been spending a substantial amount since marrying your brother to pay off her brother's debts.
00:11:27I want everything on her.
00:11:30Everything!
00:11:31If she is playing us for fools, then I will personally ensure that she regrets ever hearing the name Manchino.
00:11:38I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:11:48I hate to put extra stress on your shoulders, but we need to discuss the incredible cost of your husband's care and how the bill will be paid.
00:11:58Limited edition is perfect for you.
00:12:05Marco, you just focus on getting better, okay?
00:12:09Don't worry about the bills.
00:12:11I've got to cover.
00:12:19Your brother married Miss Jackson under false pretenses.
00:12:23She worked several jobs to make that money.
00:12:25And when your brother got sick, he worked to pay off his medical bills.
00:12:29And then day and night for his funeral.
00:12:32Did I get her all wrong?
00:12:38Mother is unwell.
00:12:48You need to return home immediately.
00:12:52What's wrong with mom?
00:12:53Is she hurt?
00:12:59Mom?
00:13:01What's going on?
00:13:02Ava, please don't be angry.
00:13:10We just had to get you here.
00:13:17What are you doing?
00:13:18Since you won't help us financially, we had to find another solution.
00:13:22Victor Fang.
00:13:23That old loan shark's willing to give us $80,000 just to marry you.
00:13:27Are you insane?
00:13:35I'm pregnant.
00:13:36Your husband's dead, Ava.
00:13:38Why keep his baby?
00:13:39Think about your family.
00:13:41Mr. Fang is waiting.
00:13:43Don't make this harder than it needs to be.
00:13:46You are not selling me off to Victor Fang!
00:13:49If she dies, how will you provide for this child?
00:13:57She's calling someone!
00:14:06Hello?
00:14:12Ava's in danger.
00:14:13We need to move.
00:14:14Go, go, go!
00:14:19You think someone's coming to save you?
00:14:41Who dares manhandle my future bride?
00:14:44Mr. Fang.
00:14:45Oh, it's such a pleasure.
00:14:46Uh, this is Ava, my sister, who we discussed.
00:14:50Ooh, two for the price of one, I see.
00:14:52Oh, it's just, it's just some dead guy's kid.
00:14:55If, if you want, I can take care of it right now.
00:14:57We can offer you a discount, and I think $60,000 is not unfair.
00:15:01Pennies for somebody of your wealth.
00:15:02Derek, you're sick!
00:15:04I'm your sister, this is your nephew.
00:15:06My son's future is more important to me than that stupid little bastard of yours!
00:15:11Hey, hey, no need to be so rough with such a beautiful lady.
00:15:16Now, dear, just take this right here, and it'll make things easier for everybody.
00:15:23Oh, okay, you're a little feisty, I see.
00:15:29Maybe you just need a little personal attention.
00:15:32Yeah.
00:15:33Get out of my way!
00:15:58I always knew Ava was trouble.
00:15:59Her husband's barely cold, and she already has been out of there.
00:16:03Who the hell do you think you are?
00:16:06I look at Mancini.
00:16:10Mancini, you idiot.
00:16:12You killed me!
00:16:14How did my sister get caught up with the likes of you?
00:16:16Ava is my brother's widow, and her baby is his only child.
00:16:20So, it's true?
00:16:22Her baby's the heir to the Mancini family?
00:16:25Looks like your wife is pregnant, too.
00:16:28Y-yes, y-yes, it's true.
00:16:30I swear, we-we didn't know, please, please!
00:16:33You will be dealt with,
00:16:34pinfully,
00:16:36what you did to Ava.
00:16:41Get a doctor!
00:16:41Get a doctor, get a car, and deal with him.
00:16:44Get a doctor, get a doctor!
00:17:12Mom, hey.
00:17:23How's Ava? How's the baby?
00:17:26The doctors are examining her now.
00:17:32Doctor, how is she?
00:17:33Mrs. Mancini has a severe ankle fracture that it needs immediate surgery.
00:17:37The medication could cause a miscarriage, so we need to have consent before we can proceed.
00:17:44Do it, whatever it takes.
00:17:46No!
00:17:49Doctor, is there any way to do the surgery without anesthesia?
00:17:53That's not medically advisable. The pain would be too excruciating.
00:18:00This baby is Marco's only child, his only heir.
00:18:04I can't risk losing it. I can handle the pain.
00:18:09Oh, my brave girl. God bless you.
00:18:13You know, I think somebody should be with her during the operation.
00:18:17The pain would be just too intense.
00:18:20I'll stay with her.
00:18:21I'll stay with her.
00:18:23How'd it go, doctor?
00:18:46It's a success.
00:18:47You're a real trooper, if you don't mind me saying.
00:18:52I guess my brother had good reason to fall for her.
00:18:54Senora Ava, please, let me help you.
00:19:20Okay, right this way only.
00:19:21I know your stay at the hospital could not have been easy for you.
00:19:30That's why I'm having 30% of Mancini Group shares put into your name.
00:19:36No.
00:19:37Mom, I cannot accept that.
00:19:40We're family.
00:19:43It's what you deserve.
00:19:44Actually, I've been thinking about doing something else.
00:19:49I'd like to go back to work.
00:19:52Work?
00:19:53But, but, you're pregnant.
00:19:55Oh, honey, if you need money, I'll just transfer some into your account.
00:19:58No, no, it's not about money.
00:20:00Marco always said that we should make our own way.
00:20:05And I want our child to know his father and know what he valued.
00:20:13You are as stubborn as he was.
00:20:18Look, you're going to need protection.
00:20:21You'll accompany her.
00:20:25No, no, no, no, no.
00:20:26I can manage on my own.
00:20:27In the morning, 10 a.m., I'll be at the entrance.
00:20:43You know that I can talk to your manager for you.
00:20:45Make sure that they accommodate every need.
00:20:47No need.
00:20:48I don't want any special treatments.
00:20:51But, thank you for that.
00:20:52You know, Ava, you do not need to be afraid of me.
00:20:58I can help you.
00:21:00Whenever you need.
00:21:19Why is she even back?
00:21:21A pregnant belly ruins a sore's aesthetic.
00:21:23These pregnant women know exactly what they're doing.
00:21:26Hiding behind maternity protections.
00:21:29We can't legally fire her.
00:21:31Could you reassign her to the warehouse?
00:21:33Maybe move some stock around?
00:21:35And if something happens to her or the baby,
00:21:37you want that liability?
00:21:39We can't fire her,
00:21:41but we certainly can make her life difficult enough
00:21:44that she decides to quit on her own.
00:21:46And that concludes our quarterly revenue projections.
00:22:08Sir, forgive my directness,
00:22:14but are we here because you're concerned about your sister-in-law?
00:22:23Should I have the car brought around for your next meeting?
00:22:27Yes, at the meeting.
00:22:28I've been meaning to talk to you.
00:22:34Given your condition,
00:22:37I've been worried about potential liability issues.
00:22:40My pregnancy will not affect my performance.
00:22:42I do not intend to take advantage of company policy.
00:22:46Oh, glad to hear that.
00:22:49Then you won't mind proving your commitment.
00:22:52Sell one million dollars worth of merchandise by today,
00:22:56and I'll put all of my concerns to rest.
00:22:58I've seen your sales record.
00:23:00I know you can do it.
00:23:01I know you can do it.
00:23:30Sir, half an hour until closing,
00:23:44and Mrs. Mancini has already surpassed
00:23:46the store's average monthly sales in a single day.
00:23:50But she's still a great deal short
00:23:52of the manager's impossible target.
00:23:53She did make it clear
00:23:58that she doesn't want any special treatment,
00:24:01but I have been neglecting my own wardrobe.
00:24:04The Rossi family event will require several new suits.
00:24:07Now that you mention it, sir,
00:24:08your formal collection is missing quite a few essential items.
00:24:12And I should do some personal shopping, shouldn't I?
00:24:20Sir, may I assist you?
00:24:22Sir!
00:24:22This limited edition silk tie
00:24:24would go perfect with your complexion.
00:24:26Sir, I'd be happy to take your measurements, personally.
00:24:29Sir, as store manager,
00:24:32I would be honored to assist you with your needs myself.
00:24:36I'd actually like Miss Jackson to assist me.
00:24:39I hear her taste in men's fashion is exceptional.
00:24:46Shall we begin?
00:24:47Right this way, sir.
00:24:52I just need to take your measurements.
00:24:58Whoa, what are you doing?
00:25:00You're measuring that good?
00:25:03I just needed you to take the jacket off.
00:25:05Well,
00:25:06we don't have much time.
00:25:12I know.
00:25:12I know.
00:25:13I know.
00:25:13I know.
00:25:14I know.
00:25:19Now, imagine me like this.
00:25:23Mm-hmm.
00:25:27Fuck me.
00:25:28Mm-hmm.
00:25:28Ava, time is almost up.
00:25:53I did it.
00:26:11I saved my job,
00:26:13and I made a new sales record.
00:26:16There's no reason to thank me.
00:26:17I'm here to help, whenever you need help.
00:26:21I hate to do this, but Ava Jackson, you're fired.
00:26:29What?
00:26:30No.
00:26:31I met your target, and then some.
00:26:33Oh, that last sale?
00:26:34The one that put you over the top?
00:26:35That was actually mine.
00:26:36You're trying to steal my commission?
00:26:37Well, that won't work,
00:26:38because everyone in this store saw me make that sale.
00:26:43I get it.
00:26:44You threatened them into silence.
00:26:45Well, that won't work either,
00:26:46because the security cameras caught everything.
00:26:48Security cameras?
00:26:49What a horrible timing.
00:26:50Unfortunately, the security cameras are down for maintenance today.
00:26:56But fortunately, everyone here saw you destroy my commission.
00:26:59I get it.
00:27:00You threatened them into silence.
00:27:01Well, that won't work either,
00:27:02because the security cameras caught everything.
00:27:03Security cameras?
00:27:04What a horrible timing.
00:27:06Unfortunately, the security cameras are down for maintenance today.
00:27:09But fortunately, everyone here saw you destroy thousands of dollars worth of merchandise.
00:27:21You all saw Ava, didn't you?
00:27:23Yeah, we all saw it.
00:27:25So someone should call security.
00:27:28Better yet, call the police.
00:27:30I'm sorry, sir, but we're closed for the day.
00:27:40I heard this store get trashed.
00:27:42I may have to ask you to leave,
00:27:43or I'm going to have to call the police.
00:27:45The police work for me.
00:27:47Are you?
00:27:48Luca Mancini?
00:27:50Oh.
00:27:51Luca Mancini?
00:28:22Please stop. I admit it, I was wrong.
00:28:47Who really damaged the merchandise in this store?
00:28:49The items that you destroyed are worth over several millions of dollars at five years
00:28:53in prison.
00:28:58Look, what happened?
00:29:00There's nothing more talking about. We need to go.
00:29:01And by the way, you're fired.
00:29:04Let's go.
00:29:05Mom, cut this down.
00:29:06How dare that woman mess with my family?
00:29:16I will make sure, personally, that she suffers for it.
00:29:20You don't have to worry about that anymore.
00:29:22It's all taken care of, thanks to Luca.
00:29:25This door looked like a tornado hit it.
00:29:27Mandy will be serving time in a jail cell.
00:29:30Justice is served.
00:29:31That's my boy.
00:29:36Sweetheart, I would like you to concentrate full-time on your pregnancy right now.
00:29:41All of this work drama can wait until after my grandchild is born safely.
00:29:46Yes, Mommy.
00:29:47I transferred five million dollars into your personal account for prenatal care.
00:29:53I am worried about the baby's well-being.
00:29:57Luca, I'd like you to take her to the doctor tomorrow for an exam.
00:30:01No, that's really not necessary.
00:30:04I have those meetings in Europe, so possibly I could have so much substituting.
00:30:11Yeah, and I'm perfectly capable of going by myself.
00:30:15I don't want to travel, Luca, with something so routine.
00:30:21It's decided.
00:30:23Cancel whatever meetings you have.
00:30:25I want you to take her.
00:30:27I will not stand for any more incidents.
00:30:30Yes, Mother.
00:30:31No.
00:30:32Ava Jackson, we're ready for you now.
00:30:48Dad should come too.
00:30:49We encourage partner participation.
00:30:52Oh, no, he's not.
00:30:57Would you prefer that I explain that I'm your dead husband's brother?
00:31:00That might be a bit awkward.
00:31:02Mr. and Mrs. Jackson, please come in when you're ready.
00:31:05Coming.
00:31:12If you could lift your top up slightly and lower your skirt band just a bit, we'll get started.
00:31:18First prenatal checkup together, I'm guessing.
00:31:33The baby looks perfectly healthy.
00:31:36Current length is about three inches with a strong heart rate.
00:31:41Is the baby moving?
00:31:42Yes, indeed.
00:31:45Look there.
00:31:46The little one's making faces.
00:31:50Quite the expressive child already.
00:31:56Dad, don't you want to come take a look?
00:32:01Oh.
00:32:01The baby's at 18 weeks now, developing beautifully.
00:32:11For home care, I recommend plenty of rest, nutrient-rich foods, and tactile bonding when possible.
00:32:20Tactile bonding?
00:32:22Yes.
00:32:23It's quite beneficial for fetal development.
00:32:25Come over here and place your hands on her belly.
00:32:29Um, doctor, is that really appropriate?
00:32:32What's inappropriate about it?
00:32:34This is what husbands do.
00:32:39Okay.
00:32:40Sorry, Dad.
00:32:54Did I hurt you?
00:32:55No, no.
00:32:56It just feels strange.
00:32:58Like this.
00:33:00Top to bottom.
00:33:02Left to right.
00:33:04Gentle strokes.
00:33:08Got it.
00:33:09Do this once daily.
00:33:13Five to ten minutes each.
00:33:17You can sit up now.
00:33:24Huh.
00:33:25So, everything good with the baby?
00:33:28Any special instructions I should know about?
00:33:31Nothing.
00:33:32Nothing, no.
00:33:33The doctor did say that the baby is developing beautifully, and there's nothing to worry about.
00:33:38Good news, then.
00:33:42Before I forget, the Rossi family's daughter is having her birthday celebration next weekend,
00:33:49and we should all attend.
00:33:51The Rossi family?
00:33:53Technically, they're our business rivals, but social niceties must be maintained.
00:33:59And she has had an embarrassing crush on Luca since they were little children.
00:34:05Mom, please.
00:34:07Miss Sofia Rossi has arrived unannounced.
00:34:11She shows up without calling?
00:34:14How gauche.
00:34:15Should we send Ava upstairs?
00:34:16No, no, no, it's fine.
00:34:18I'm here.
00:34:18We can just...
00:34:19Good evening, Mrs. Mancini.
00:34:25Luca!
00:34:25I came to person to deliver my birthday invitation.
00:34:28Okay.
00:34:32Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:35Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:36Hey, hey, Rossi's family lack of manners ever disappoints me.
00:34:41Luca Mancini, how dare you speak to me like that?
00:34:44Miss Rossi, I've heard so much about your family.
00:34:49I'm Ava, Marco's wife.
00:34:52Marco was Luca's brother.
00:34:57Oh, okay.
00:34:58I thought you were carrying Luca's baby.
00:35:01That's good, because I'm nice.
00:35:02I came all this way to bring you that, and this is how you welcome me?
00:35:07Don't disappoint me at the party, darling.
00:35:10Wear something sharp.
00:35:23See if there's any connection between that pregnant woman and Luca.
00:35:26I'm not buying this whole sister-in-law act for one second.
00:35:29You got it.
00:35:32Oh, you look so handsome.
00:35:40Well, well, well.
00:35:41It looks like my stubborn son has good taste after all.
00:35:45Luca did an excellent job selecting this gown.
00:35:48It is perfect for you.
00:35:50Luca picked this?
00:35:55I've never been anywhere this fancy before.
00:35:58I might embarrass you guys.
00:36:00Oh, don't even worry about it.
00:36:03You are my pride and joy.
00:36:06Besides, Luca will be with us the whole time,
00:36:09and he'll make sure everything runs smoothly.
00:36:14Luca?
00:36:15What about her shoes?
00:36:16How could you forget something so basic?
00:36:18What about her shoe do you think?
00:36:32What about her shoe do you think?
00:36:34What about I won't share your land?
00:36:35What about my shoe do you think?
00:36:36What about her shoe do you think?
00:36:39Right there.
00:36:51No problem.
00:36:53Just don't want you to fall.
00:37:09Who's that with Mr. Mancini?
00:37:11She's clearly pregnant.
00:37:13Do you think that's Mr. Mancini's baby?
00:37:15I had no idea he was going to marry.
00:37:17Must be his mistress.
00:37:19Everyone, I would like to introduce Ava Mancini,
00:37:24my eldest son Marco's wife.
00:37:26Marco's wife?
00:37:28She's stunning.
00:37:31This is my birthday party!
00:37:33I'm supposed to be the center of attention,
00:37:35not some pregnant woman!
00:37:39Maybe we shouldn't cross a scene here.
00:37:42It's fine.
00:37:43She's almost like this.
00:37:46We didn't mean to steal your spotlight.
00:37:49An apology simply isn't enough.
00:37:52Since you're Luca's sister-in-law,
00:37:54why don't you entertain us all with a performance of some kind?
00:37:58Look!
00:37:59She used to deliver food for a living.
00:38:01Waitress? Retail clerk? Cleaning lady?
00:38:04What could someone with her background possibly perform for this crowd?
00:38:09Ava, how does this piece go again?
00:38:20I'm completely lost here.
00:38:22I've forgotten everything that you told me.
00:38:25There's no way she could actually play.
00:38:27She's just a nobody from nowhere.
00:38:29He has to be setting her own.
00:38:31Even Miss Mancini is smiling.
00:38:33Just waiting for her to crash and burn.
00:38:35I was just playing for the baby.
00:38:36I think he recognized the music you were playing for us earlier.
00:38:50Well, maybe you should teach me sometime properly.
00:39:05I'd like to play for you both.
00:39:07Um, because Mom did tell me to look after you.
00:39:13So, it's the least that I can do.
00:39:15Okay.
00:39:16One, two, and there.
00:39:30And there.
00:39:31There.
00:39:32There.
00:39:33There.
00:39:34There.
00:39:35There.
00:40:06Look at the way they play together.
00:40:08If I can't have him, I'll destroy them though.
00:40:18Yeah, I always enjoy these type of events.
00:40:20Me too.
00:40:21That's how it's screwed up.
00:40:22From Miss Rossi.
00:40:24Your accompanist.
00:40:25Cheers.
00:40:30Sir, that drink is almost certainly drugged.
00:40:33Obviously.
00:40:34Is the Rossi family making a move against us?
00:40:37These tensions have been simmering for years.
00:40:39Should we respond preemptively?
00:40:45Do nothing.
00:40:46You just need to focus on protecting Ava.
00:40:49We'll see what they have planned.
00:40:57Darling, you look tired.
00:41:00I don't think all this excitement is good for your condition.
00:41:03Why don't you try to find Luca and let's get you home.
00:41:09So If he has bedroom.
00:41:12Why is Luca's phone in there?
00:41:13And why am I jealous?
00:41:14Sophia's bedroom. Why is Luca's phone in there? And why am I jealous?
00:41:44I've wanted Luca for years, and then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks?
00:42:02You won't look so innocent when everyone sees you in bed next to your dead husband's house.
00:42:07This isn't exactly how you wanted it.
00:42:10Not at all. This isn't convincing. Unbutton their clothes.
00:42:14Sal, position them closer together. Make it look more intimate.
00:42:29Perfect. Let's go. Our masterpiece is complete. Now we just have to bring in the audience.
00:42:44I expected much more than just this juvenile prank from my business partner.
00:42:48Evo, wake up. Evo. Evo.
00:43:03Evo. Evo.
00:43:13Oh my God.
00:43:18This is bad. What happened to us?
00:43:26This is bad.
00:43:37If anyone sees us like this, they'll immediately assume the worst.
00:43:40Luca, wake up.
00:43:49Okay.
00:43:53Oh!
00:43:54Oh!
00:43:56Jesus.
00:43:57People are coming.
00:43:59You're acting like we had some tort affair.
00:44:01We didn't do anything wrong, so why are you worrying?
00:44:03I'm your late brother's widow, and I'm carrying his child.
00:44:06If anyone sees us like this, they'll...
00:44:08The Mancini family name won't be destroyed.
00:44:11Okay.
00:44:12Okay.
00:44:14Oh, so...
00:44:15Mancini name is what you're concerned about. Is that it?
00:44:18Hey, hey, hey.
00:44:19You haven't answered your...
00:44:21Thank you all so much for coming today to celebrate me, but I do have some rather important information to share with you all.
00:44:33I have just discovered Luca Mancini in a rather compromising position with his brother's pregnant widow.
00:44:44In my bedroom.
00:44:45Can you let go?
00:44:57They're coming.
00:44:58They're coming.
00:45:02Here, I got this. Watch out.
00:45:04Wait, stop! Watch!
00:45:05They're right there!
00:45:06If we walk through that door, we'll walk right into their trap.
00:45:09Okay, then what's your brilliant idea?
00:45:10Yes, ma'am?
00:45:11Um, we...
00:45:13Let's go through the window.
00:45:14We can climb down.
00:45:15Whoa, whoa, whoa, no.
00:45:16No, no, I'm afraid of heights.
00:45:19You're what?
00:45:22Sorry, I just didn't realize the great Luca Mancini have fears like the rest of us.
00:45:27Yeah, you know, that's one of my fears, and I don't advertise it, so...
00:45:31Deal with it.
00:45:32What the hell, Steve?
00:45:35I see, there are these cheaters you promised to expose.
00:45:38Shh, keep it down, you idiot. You don't want to wake them.
00:45:41I mean, we don't want to alert them to give them a chance to escape.
00:45:46There comes, let's go, let's go, let's go.
00:45:49Okay.
00:45:50Hurry, hurry.
00:45:55No, no, no, no, don't run.
00:45:57We have to catch them in the act first.
00:45:58Are you insane?
00:45:59Your house is on fire.
00:46:01Who cares about the gossip?
00:46:02Let me get out of here.
00:46:03No, no, no, no, no, no, I'll help everyone leave afterwards, but first let's get a look at them, come on.
00:46:07Oh, hi.
00:46:30What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:46:32I am so sorry.
00:46:33It was an accident, please.
00:46:35Okay?
00:46:37Yeah.
00:46:39The staff prepared everything for you, and there's hot water in there.
00:46:47And what about you?
00:46:49We'll just be out here, taking guard for you.
00:46:53Now go on, it's warm.
00:46:56Thanks.
00:47:05What is it?
00:47:29Miss Rossi is demanding to see you, sir.
00:47:33She's quite insistent.
00:47:35Okay, let her run.
00:47:40You set off the fire alarms and completely scared away my guests.
00:47:43You ruined my birthday celebration.
00:47:45Hey, you will take full responsibility for what you did.
00:48:00The drugging, the setup, all of it.
00:48:02And if you ever threaten Ava again, directly or indirectly, I will end the Rossi family from this city permanently.
00:48:11You're a monster.
00:48:13That's her in there, isn't it?
00:48:14Ava?
00:48:15Your dead brother's wife?
00:48:17How dare you?
00:48:19Get your hands off of me!
00:48:21Do you know who I am?
00:48:22Ava?
00:48:38Luca?
00:48:49Luca, it's me.
00:48:51Ava, you're so close. Is this a dream?
00:49:01Luca, I'm your brother's wife.
00:49:04So this isn't a dream.
00:49:07Ava, I've had feelings for you for so long.
00:49:12And I've tried to keep them a secret, but I can't keep them any longer.
00:49:18And now you know my two secrets, and by family code, I have to silence the person who discovers my weaknesses.
00:49:29Luca, let me go.
00:49:30No, no, no, but I can't silence you because, Ava, I have fallen in love with you.
00:49:36Oh, God, that's not funny.
00:49:39Look, I've never been more serious.
00:49:43Look, Ava, every time I come around you, I feel myself slipping.
00:49:50And my feelings have crossed that line months ago.
00:49:54Stop, stop, just stop. I'll forget this ever happened.
00:49:59No, Ava, I want to take care of you, and the baby, for the rest of my life.
00:50:06Luca, what's going on? Why isn't Ava home?
00:50:24What's going on here?
00:50:27Mom, I think...
00:50:29Nothing.
00:50:31My clothes were dirty, so Luca prepared for me a shower and clean clothes.
00:50:36Oh, thank goodness.
00:50:38The last thing we need is for you to catch pneumonia.
00:50:41Yeah, I know.
00:50:42Ava, I think that we should probably...
00:50:45Luca, it's almost Marco's birthday.
00:50:50Let's visit his grave.
00:50:53He is your brother and my husband.
00:50:57And we don't want to betray his memory.
00:51:00Oh, you poor thing. You must be utterly exhausted.
00:51:03Let's get you home.
00:51:05These Rossi's are nothing but trouble.
00:51:08We need to accelerate our plans against them.
00:51:11Changing hearts.
00:51:13Changing hearts.
00:51:14Changing hearts.
00:51:15Changing hearts.
00:51:17Changing hearts.
00:51:20Marco...
00:51:21I miss you.
00:51:26I feel so lost without you.
00:51:31Would you hate me if you knew I had feelings for your brother?
00:51:40Ava, are you in there?
00:51:53Ava, are you there?
00:51:56I meant everything that I said today.
00:52:00And I want to help you get through this and I want to protect you.
00:52:04Marco and Mom, they would both understand.
00:52:09Ava, I love you.
00:52:25I understand how difficult this is.
00:52:28Your loyalty for Marco and your concern for my mother, that is the compassion that...
00:52:34That's the reason I fell in love with you.
00:52:37There's 30 million dollars on this credit card.
00:52:43And the pin number is your birthday.
00:52:46I've been through webs and flows.
00:52:48I asked goodbye felt like the end.
00:52:51Can't deny, I can't pretend.
00:52:54This fire burns again.
00:52:57Illuminated rain.
00:53:01I feel alive.
00:53:02One more time.
00:53:03Our worlds collide.
00:53:04Watch them circling in the sky.
00:53:05We are magnetic sides.
00:53:06I'm falling for you.
00:53:07No one loves me like you do.
00:53:08Thought that you and I went through.
00:53:10The baby's development is right on track.
00:53:17Perfect, actually.
00:53:19Has your husband been doing those tactile bonding exercises I showed you?
00:53:24Doctor.
00:53:25Actually, he's not exactly right.
00:53:26We don't need to be embarrassed.
00:53:27The way that man looks at you is something special.
00:53:31Now face each other, Helena take her hands, deep inhale, and lean into each other.
00:54:00Using each other's weight to support you.
00:54:05Come up.
00:54:11On the exhale, do a gentle squat.
00:54:17And then share and embrace.
00:54:23Who exactly are you welcoming home, dear daughter-in-law?
00:54:34I was just talking nonsense.
00:54:38Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo.
00:54:39I was just talking nonsense!
00:54:40I am not laughing.
00:54:41I am hungry.
00:54:45Okay.
00:54:46Ohiden.
00:54:51Miss, flowers from Mr. Mancini.
00:54:58Hi.
00:55:03I wonder if he's doing well out there.
00:55:33And you're starting to think that you're talking too much.
00:55:37I like how we just met.
00:55:39And I'm not even slightly afraid to be opening up.
00:55:46Hello?
00:55:47Ava?
00:55:47I'm outside at the gate.
00:55:50Security won't let me in.
00:55:56Mom, what are you doing here?
00:55:58I missed you terribly, sweetheart.
00:56:00I just wanted to check on you and the baby.
00:56:06Look, fresh oranges.
00:56:10Just picked today.
00:56:11You need the vitamin C for the baby's development.
00:56:14I'm on a very carefully monitored diet.
00:56:17You wasted a trip.
00:56:18Look, I know that you haven't forgiven me.
00:56:25But you have to understand.
00:56:27Derek and Sarah, I mean, they would have thrown me out on the street if I didn't go along with them.
00:56:34I mean, what choice did I have?
00:56:35That's not rehash the past.
00:56:39Of course.
00:56:41I picked these up for my grandchild.
00:56:44Aren't they precious?
00:56:45That baby that you're carrying is my family, too.
00:56:51I love them so much already.
00:56:54Look, I stood up for you to Derek.
00:56:57And he threw me out.
00:56:59I had absolutely nothing left.
00:57:01This card contains all the money I've saved.
00:57:13It's yours.
00:57:15But you have to promise me that you'll use it for yourself.
00:57:17Not a penny goes to Derek.
00:57:19Okay.
00:57:20I swear it.
00:57:21Not a cent to him.
00:57:23How much money are we talking about?
00:57:25$10,000.
00:57:26$10,000?
00:57:30That's it.
00:57:32You're carrying the Mancini air and all they've given you is $10,000.
00:57:37That is my personal savings.
00:57:39I haven't asked the Mancinis for a cent.
00:57:41Okay, this is completely unacceptable.
00:57:46Everyone in this city knows that the Mancinis are loaded beyond belief.
00:57:51Come on.
00:57:52You need to milk this situation for all it's worth.
00:57:56Honey, I'm...
00:58:02I'm only thinking about your future and your security.
00:58:07I mean, what happens if they throw you out once the baby arrives?
00:58:12I didn't marry into the Mancini family for their fortune.
00:58:16And you mention their money one more time, you'll never see me again.
00:58:21Understood?
00:58:22I understand, sweetheart.
00:58:24Mom won't say another word about it.
00:58:25I'll be in the middle of the world.
00:58:27I'll be in the middle of the world.
00:58:31$10,000?
00:58:33That's it?
00:58:34That's pocket change for them?
00:58:36She must be holding down on us.
00:58:39That ungrateful little brat.
00:58:42I tried everything.
00:58:44I couldn't squeeze another penny out of her.
00:58:46She's swimming in Mancini money and we're here struggling.
00:58:50After what they did to my leg?
00:58:52I should be getting millions!
00:58:53Yes, a few million.
00:58:55It's just the beginning.
00:58:57We've been thinking too small.
00:59:10I have good reason to believe that we have a common enemy.
00:59:13I think we should work together.
00:59:14It's good to hear that she's eating healthy.
00:59:43And then she finally attended the prenatal concert we arranged.
00:59:48And afterwards she spoke with one of the pianists about the compositions.
00:59:52Is it man or woman?
00:59:53Sir, per your instructions, they were all talented women.
00:59:56No exceptions.
00:59:58And she actually mentioned you today.
01:00:00While making hot chocolate, she said to the chef,
01:00:03It's never quite as good as Lucas.
01:00:06She always knows what to say.
01:00:07I'll make her a batch right now and we can have it delivered.
01:00:12Great.
01:00:13I'll arrange a private courier right away.
01:00:20Luca is almost finished with his business.
01:00:23Hopefully he will make it home in time for the birth.
01:00:26Mrs. Mancini, terrible news.
01:00:30Luca's jet has been destroyed him in a flight.
01:00:32He's missing.
01:00:33What?
01:00:35I want every detail immediately.
01:00:37Yes, ma'am.
01:00:39Ava, breathe.
01:00:40Breathe.
01:00:41Don't panic.
01:00:42Don't panic.
01:00:43Luca has always been lucky.
01:00:45He's going to be fine.
01:00:46He will.
01:00:46I have Luca Mancini.
01:00:5420 million dollars cash for his safe return.
01:00:57No police.
01:00:58No family.
01:00:59No security team.
01:01:01You come alone or he dies.
01:01:04You have 24 hours.
01:01:08Who?
01:01:10Oh, Ava, are you okay?
01:01:12Who was that?
01:01:13It's nothing, nothing.
01:01:14I'm just dizzy.
01:01:16The, the baby.
01:01:18So I'm going to go upstairs and lie down.
01:01:21Oh.
01:01:22Okay.
01:01:23Here.
01:01:37Luca.
01:01:39Money first.
01:01:41Okay.
01:01:46I'm just...
01:01:47I'm just...
01:01:47I'm just...
01:01:49I'm just...
01:01:49Ow!
01:01:54Are you okay?
01:01:58Derek.
01:02:00Where's Luca?
01:02:02Where's Luca?
01:02:03Don't worry about Luca.
01:02:05Worry about yourself.
01:02:06No!
01:02:06Derek!
01:02:08No!
01:02:08No!
01:02:08No!
01:02:09No!
01:02:09No!
01:02:10No!
01:02:10No!
01:02:10No!
01:02:11No!
01:02:11No!
01:02:12No!
01:02:12No!
01:02:13No!
01:02:13No!
01:02:14No!
01:02:14No!
01:02:15No!
01:02:15Yeah, with her as our bargaining chip, we can demand a hundred million dollars from the Manchins.
01:02:32Easy.
01:02:34Mom, why are you doing this?
01:02:37Poor family.
01:02:38Why have you always treated me so terribly?
01:02:44Family?
01:02:45You are so pathetic.
01:02:49You just don't get it, do you?
01:02:51You're just some brat that Mom found on the street that she brought home to be our living servant.
01:02:57You're an orphan!
01:03:00Not even your birth mother wanted you.
01:03:04Yeah, we brought you in.
01:03:05We fed you.
01:03:07We clothed you.
01:03:08And in return, your life belongs to us.
01:03:13Oh, I know.
01:03:14By the way, since we're being honest with each other right now, my whole leg injury, it's kind of my fault.
01:03:20But it was a great excuse to get you to basically give up your life and be our slave in all these years.
01:03:28You know what?
01:03:36Even though you're nothing but a bunch of orphan trash, you're actually very beautiful.
01:03:41So since we're giving up this whole brother-sister role-play thing, I don't want to do something that I've wanted to do for a very, very long time.
01:03:57Now let's just keep that pretty little mouth of yours quiet, shall we?
01:04:08You fucking bitch.
01:04:15You fucking bitch.
01:04:15Oh, God, you're alive.
01:04:38You're okay.
01:04:39My plane blew up.
01:04:49Anybody gets kidnapped.
01:04:50This isn't a coincidence.
01:04:52Who are you looking for?
01:04:53Answer me.
01:04:56Oh, God.
01:04:58Hey, make them stop.
01:05:00He's your brother.
01:05:02You'll kill him.
01:05:03You just told me I'm an orphan, so he's not really my little brother.
01:05:07You better tell me who your accomplices are, or he stops breathing.
01:05:11You two should be ashamed of yourselves.
01:05:13Yeah, I see the way that you look at each other.
01:05:16He's your dead husband's brother.
01:05:19You're betraying Marco and his mother.
01:05:21Are you all right?
01:05:25Hey, hey, hey, you okay?
01:05:26Yeah, yeah.
01:05:28Your mom has been so kind to me, and I dragged her into this mess.
01:05:33It's on my floor.
01:05:35Your mother-in-law took you in.
01:05:37She treated you like a daughter.
01:05:39She gave you everything that you could ever want, and this is how you repay her?
01:05:42By falling for her younger son?
01:05:45Have you already forgotten Marco?
01:05:47Is this great?
01:05:49What is wrong with you?
01:05:50I want her as my daughter-in-law.
01:05:57First my eldest son's wife, and now my youngest.
01:06:02Object to them, and you'll lose your tongue.
01:06:06You couldn't have Luca, so you decided to try and kill him?
01:06:23Good thing he changed his flight plan at the last minute, hmm?
01:06:28Cross the Mancini's, and you cease to exist.
01:06:31Release me!
01:06:33My father will burn your empire to the ground.
01:06:38Don't you wonder why my son was gone all that time?
01:06:45Your family's power?
01:06:49Already gone.
01:06:50You two have risked everything to be together.
01:07:06I can see that Luca's devotion is absolute.
01:07:12You have endured far too much pain.
01:07:18It's time to let him take care of you.
01:07:20But, Marco, I made a promise to him.
01:07:25And Marco would want your happiness above all else.
01:07:31He will rest easier, knowing that we are protecting you and your child.
01:07:43From this moment forward, I swear to you, nobody will ever hurt you.
01:07:52Luca, you're bleeding.
01:07:53You gotta keep this clean.
01:07:58Yeah.
01:07:59Infections can get nasty.
01:08:03Okay.
01:08:05So you're saying that you care about me, then?
01:08:08Shut up.
01:08:09Of course I care.
01:08:15All right.
01:08:16Wait.
01:08:17Wait.
01:08:17I think he likes you.
01:08:45Yeah.
01:08:45Ava, I will take care of you and a baby.
01:08:55Just like my brother would have.
01:08:57I brought some fruit for you and the...
01:08:59Luca.
01:09:03She's pregnant.
01:09:04Be gentle with her.
01:09:09I think maybe you should get some less.
01:09:12Okay.
01:09:15Oh, wait.
01:09:19What is it?
01:09:20I think I'm in labor.
01:09:22Oh, my God.
01:09:23Come on.
01:09:24Come on.
01:09:25Go easy, sir.
01:09:26Come on.
01:09:30What is taking so long?
01:09:33Is something wrong?
01:09:34She's gone into labor early.
01:09:36Have you two been intimate recently?
01:09:39Well, we didn't exactly.
01:09:41I mean, not completely.
01:09:43I warned you to be careful with her.
01:09:45What can we do now?
01:09:48The medication isn't working as we'd hoped.
01:09:50There's another approach we could try.
01:09:54Yes, yes.
01:09:54We'll do anything.
01:09:55There's no object.
01:09:56Just help her.
01:09:58Some intimate touches can help her relax and feel better.
01:10:02Right here.
01:10:08Right here.
01:10:09Yes.
01:10:13Mom, I can't just whip it out.
01:10:18Hurry it up.
01:10:19Shut up.
01:10:25Mom, go.
01:10:26Oh, God.
01:10:27Oh, God.
01:10:29Oh, God.
01:10:34Okay.
01:10:35Oh, God.
01:10:40I hope things are going smoothly in there.
01:10:52They've never been together before.
01:10:55Never been together?
01:10:57Then how could she be?
01:10:59The child is my late son's.
01:11:03Luca's brother.
01:11:07You okay?
01:11:07Doctor, please.
01:11:10Doctor, please.
01:11:17Three, one, two, three, push.
01:11:20One, two, three, push.
01:11:23One, two, three, push.
01:11:25Push, push, push.
01:11:26Push.
01:11:26One, two, three, push.
01:11:32One, two, three, push.
01:11:39Okay?
01:11:41Hey.
01:11:44Hi.
01:11:44How you feeling?
01:11:46Good.
01:11:47You want something to eat?
01:11:49Okay.
01:11:49Okay.
01:11:50I thought this hospital was the best that money can buy
01:11:57I guess I was misinformed
01:11:59Look
01:12:00They're doing the best they can
01:12:03Let's not terrorize the staff
01:12:05Thank you
01:12:06Look
01:12:08I just don't want to see you in any more pain
01:12:11You would tear me apart
01:12:20Luca
01:12:22Remember to control yourself, son
01:12:26Let her recover first
01:12:29And have you decided what to name this little prince?
01:12:43Marco
01:12:44Marco
01:12:47I want to name him Marco
01:12:48Look, little one
01:13:12It's your daddy
01:13:14Your real daddy
01:13:17It's remarkable how much he looks like
01:13:24Marco
01:13:25I thought you had all the answers
01:13:29And that you handle everything
01:13:32And I promise to protect mom
01:13:35The business
01:13:37And your family
01:13:40Our family
01:13:43You know Marco used to say
01:13:48That
01:13:49If you wanted to think about somebody
01:13:51You would watch the dandelion
01:13:54And if the seeds blew out easily
01:13:55Then they were thinking of you too
01:13:57I hear you on the radio
01:14:02All the radio
01:14:03All the radio
01:14:04All the radio
01:14:09All the radio

01:14:49Passed from mother

01:14:52To daughter
01:14:52In love
01:14:53Thank you
01:14:57A perfect fit
