00:00:08Oh my god, is that Alex? Damn, no wonder he's taught the most abandable list three years
00:00:15from him. Yeah, rich daddy on the school board, innit? Today's the student president election,
00:00:21no chance anyone beats him. Who am I up against again? Any dirt? Xavier Miller, a scholarship
00:00:27kid, geeky, unfit though. Number two on the bangable list, a bit of a loner. Never heard
00:00:33of him. I told you, don't come home without the cash. We need the money. Hey, this is
00:00:44St. Mountain College, not a fucking pub. Fine, but you won't outrun us.
00:00:58You okay, bro?
00:01:10I'm fine.
00:01:13Not even a thanks? At least give me your name!
00:01:16Oh, I'm Warren.
00:01:19Yeah, I'm Xavier.
00:01:21All right, Xavier. See you at the debate.
00:01:31Let's begin.
00:01:33The football kit budget was inflated 230%, money that could have paid for transport for
00:01:39students working late.
00:01:53Are you accusing my dad of corruption? I'm just stating facts. Let's take a five-minute
00:01:57recess.
00:02:03Here's another fact. That extra money went towards donating equipment to underprivileged
00:02:08kids. It just made me look like a total jerk for no reason.
00:02:10worth doing that.
00:02:29Now, baby. Now, baby.
00:02:38OMG, I'm literally screaming right now.
00:02:40This is unreal.
00:02:47What the actual fuck?
00:02:54Well, that was unexpected.
00:02:57Did Alex just kiss the dude?
00:02:59I thought he hates gays.
00:03:02First corruption, now death.
00:03:04Yikes, Alex Watson cancelled for real.
00:03:19Get me everything on him.
00:03:22And I mean everything.
00:03:35I just sold the damn house.
00:03:38What?
00:03:39You had no right.
00:03:40It was all mom left us.
00:03:42Where would we live then?
00:03:44You know what, your old man beating to death by lunch socks?
00:03:48I need the money.
00:03:54How about quitting the booze and gambling instead of wrecking our lives?
00:04:10Eight o'clock tonight.
00:04:12School cafe.
00:04:13Got a proposal that could fix your money issues.
00:04:25Whatever this is, make it quick.
00:04:27I want you to be my boyfriend.
00:04:41What?
00:04:42Were you expecting flowers and chocolates?
00:04:48A contract?
00:04:49You're seriously trying to hire me as your fake boyfriend?
00:04:53Real romantic, Watson.
00:04:54Let's call it a mutually beneficial arrangement.
00:04:59You clearly need the money.
00:05:02I need to fix my reputation.
00:05:04Dating the school scholarship golden boy is exactly the type of image boost I need right
00:05:09now.
00:05:12You investigated me.
00:05:14Call it damage control.
00:05:16You made me look shady in front of the entire school.
00:05:19Now you need to fix it.
00:05:20If it weren't for the homophobia rumors taking your poll numbers, would you still want to
00:05:26date a guy?
00:05:28Hell no.
00:05:30This is just business.
00:05:36Duration.
00:05:37Until the election's over.
00:05:44Just keep it professional, Watson.
00:05:46Don't get any ideas.
00:05:50Trust me.
00:05:51Feelings aren't on the menu.
00:05:58Like the game's beginning.
00:06:01Boyfriend.
00:06:08Boyfriend.
00:06:15You can drop the act now.
00:06:17No one's watching.
00:06:18Tell that to your heart rate.
00:06:19It jumped like crazy back there, huh?
00:06:21Whatever.
00:06:22Leave it.
00:06:23Who said we were finished?
00:06:25We have a frat party to hit.
00:06:27Time to show off St. Mountain's new favorite couple.
00:06:37This is part of your PR stunt too, obviously.
00:06:41One accidental kiss isn't going to sell this romance.
00:06:45Let's make it believable.
00:06:46Hey, everybody, look.
00:06:48Look, it's our star quarterback with his cute and nerdy boyfriend.
00:06:51Ooh.
00:06:52You are named, Watson.
00:06:53You know what damn means, penalty, right?
00:06:57All right, boys.
00:07:03Rules are simple.
00:07:04Ice cubes go mouth to mouth.
00:07:08No hands.
00:07:10No drop.
00:07:11Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,
00:07:16come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,
00:07:17come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,
00:07:21come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,
00:07:23come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,
00:07:27come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,
00:07:28come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,
00:07:29come on, come on, come on, come on
00:07:42Technically, this isn't sanitary.
00:08:03You what?
00:08:05That wasn't happening.
00:08:07That was street upsetting him.
00:08:08Look at the zebra, he's turning into a tomato, bro.
00:08:13What the hell is wrong with you?
00:08:15We need people to buy this, right?
00:08:26What's this?
00:08:27Extra credit homework?
00:08:29Our campaign team thinks we're lack couple chemistry.
00:08:31Voters aren't convinced.
00:08:38Pro tip genius.
00:08:39Kissing with your eyes open.
00:08:41It's a major giveaway.
00:08:46Statistically, voters want sparks, not stats.
00:08:50Marks are a separate livestream.
00:08:52Time to show the world how in love we are.
00:08:55Do you know anything to ask me first?
00:08:58The contract clearly says you have to do as I say.
00:09:05Make sure you get this.
00:09:06My robot boyfriend is looking again.
00:09:09Achoo!
00:09:12What are you so worried about?
00:09:13Oh, God.
00:09:19You need a shower.
00:09:21Fine.
00:09:22But you are coming with me.
00:09:24And Mark's livestreaming the whole thing.
00:09:27Trying to show off those acting chops.
00:09:49Am I grabbing me a towel?
00:09:51Have you ever thought of grabbing one before the strip show?
00:09:54I mean, I could just walk out naked.
00:10:12What?
00:10:14Why am I so shy all of a sudden?
00:10:17A better lift?
00:10:34I won't stop you.
00:10:46Guys, someone forgot to end the stream!
00:10:48LOL!
00:10:49You can't even pretend to hide it anymore.
00:10:51Mark my words.
00:10:52I'll expose the truth about these two.
00:10:59By popular demand, you asked, we answered.
00:11:02First question.
00:11:04What was your first impression of each other?
00:11:07He's loud.
00:11:09Seriously?
00:11:10My first impression of you was,
00:11:13who's this mysterious nerd calling me out in front of everyone?
00:11:16Harsh, but I gotta admit, kinda cute.
00:11:21It's still loud.
00:11:23Next question.
00:11:25What is your favorite thing about each other?
00:11:29I don't know.
00:11:30How your sense of responsibility may be.
00:11:36My turn.
00:11:37His fingers.
00:11:39Long, elegant, very skilled.
00:11:45Next question.
00:11:47Oh.
00:11:48Who is your most unforgettable kiss?
00:12:03Guys!
00:12:06We've got a huge problem.
00:12:07Someone leaked the contract.
00:12:08Everybody knows you're faking it.
00:12:17Oh my god.
00:12:18Did you see this?
00:12:19They signed your freaking coin truck.
00:12:21I thought they were goals.
00:12:22What a scam.
00:12:23Can't believe it.
00:12:24Dagger should be gone.
00:12:25I'm taking a favor in the land.
00:12:26I'm taking a favor in the land.
00:12:27I'm taking a favor in the land.
00:12:27I'm taking a favor in the land.
00:12:28I'm taking a favor in the land.
00:12:29I'm taking a favor in the land.
00:12:38I already have people chasing the pack.
00:12:40Whoever leaked that file is dead.
00:12:42What are our options?
00:12:44I mean, everybody's already seen the contract.
00:12:47There's no denying it.
00:12:50Unless...
00:12:50Unless what?
00:12:57Unless we make it real.
00:13:02Safe.
00:13:08I don't care if the contract was fake.
00:13:10All I know is that at some point it stopped being pretend for me.
00:13:14I couldn't stand you at first.
00:13:15Typical quarterback, arrogant, full of yourself.
00:13:18But then I saw you after practice.
00:13:20How you push yourself harder than anybody else.
00:13:23How you take the fall for your teammates.
00:13:26How you look at me in class.
00:13:29Do you honestly think I could have faked it this whole time?
00:13:33Big secret.
00:13:40How can I look into your laptop?
00:13:42Whole fool's watching this game right now.
00:13:45Oh my god.
00:13:45This is so cute.
00:13:47I'm shipping these two hard.
00:13:55Holy shit.
00:14:01Holy shit.
00:14:08I can fake confidence during debates.
00:14:10Smile through press conferences.
00:14:13Even pretend to care about school traditions I've never liked.
00:14:16But this?
00:14:19I can never fake this.
00:14:22Maybe to start off as just a deal.
00:14:24But now...
00:14:26Every word I said has been true.
00:14:28Wait.
00:14:29Pulling update.
00:14:30You can't do that.
00:14:32We'll love that.
00:14:32Pulling update.
00:14:33Alex approval plus 12%.
00:14:35Cut.
00:14:36That was perfect.
00:14:41Well at least the votes won't take an hour.
00:14:43Done my bit.
00:14:48Just doing what we agreed.
00:14:52But seeing you hurt was never part of the deal.
00:14:58I owe you, Xavier.
00:15:00Whatever happens with this election.
00:15:02It's nothing.
00:15:03Just sticking to the script, right?
00:15:07You sure that's all this is?
00:15:08No hidden feelings creeping in?
00:15:12Oh my god, you never stopped, do you?
00:15:16It's a dead end on the hacker.
00:15:18Whoever it was bounced through multiple VPNs.
00:15:21Great.
00:15:22You're dealing with a pro.
00:15:23Yeah.
00:15:23And everyone's eyes is on you too now.
00:15:26So every look, every moment, it has to feel authentic.
00:15:32Who's got this?
00:15:36Dammit.
00:15:37I left my football gear home.
00:15:38School paper shoots tomorrow.
00:15:40Come with?
00:15:42Sure, like I've got nothing better to do.
00:15:48Okay.
00:15:50Something's definitely going on between those two.
00:15:57Whoa.
00:16:02This is your average family home?
00:16:06It's my dad's place, not mine.
00:16:08Meaning?
00:16:10I have an older half-brother.
00:16:12My dad's big on competition.
00:16:15If I want any part of the family fortune,
00:16:18I have to beat him.
00:16:21Winning the election is just step one.
00:16:23Keep your family drama to yourself.
00:16:25I'm not your therapist.
00:16:29Seriously?
00:16:31Weren't you the one who insisted we make this believable?
00:16:36Fine.
00:16:37I'll keep your sad rich boy drama in mind.
00:16:43Wait here.
00:16:44I'm gonna go grab my JC.
00:16:45Wow.
00:16:46Read a book or something.
00:16:47the one who's going to want to happen.
00:17:01I'm not going to work.
00:17:01Mr.
00:17:01Mr.
00:17:02Mr.
00:17:02Mr.
00:17:02Mr.
00:17:02Mr.
00:17:02Mr.
00:17:03Mr.
00:17:04Mr.
00:17:12Mr.
00:17:12know you? You must be Xavier, the famous boyfriend. And you are? Noah, Alex's older brother.
00:17:25Oh, cold shoulder. Ouch. So, has Alex's fiance met you yet?
00:17:35Fiance. Oh, he conveniently left that detail out. This whole fake boyfriend thing, he's done it before,
00:17:45you know, with quite a trail of broken hearts. What are you implying? Alex, he doesn't date guys.
00:17:55He'll only end up getting hurt. You deserve someone better. Someone like
00:18:04me. Seriously insane. Just gay. And observe them.
00:18:11Let's not pretend you're straight out of this, sweetheart. Back off.
00:18:20Back off. I'm not. Then why are you shaking?
00:18:28You're seriously messed up. It takes one to know one, honey.
00:18:33You can't lie to yourself forever. Yeah. Alex can offer you fame, fortune, all the shiny things.
00:18:44But I can offer you something he never could. Something real.
00:18:54Get off me. What the fuck are you doing? Nice dining, little brother.
00:19:02Stay the hell away from them. You hear me?
00:19:06Relax. Relax. Just a little bit of healthy competition, that's all.
00:19:17We'll be seeing each other again real soon. I can feel it.
00:19:21I can feel it.
00:19:21I can feel it.
00:19:26Get it out!
00:19:35Don't believe the word he says. Noah thrives on chaos.
00:19:42Including the part about your fiance?
00:19:50It's an arranged thing. My dad's idea.
00:19:54Honestly, I barely even know her.
00:19:56Yeah, and with all me, any explanations, Alex? I'm just part of your PR stunt, right?
00:20:04Is that really all this is to him?
00:20:07Right. You're absolutely right.
00:20:11I'm heading back.
00:20:14Wait. It's late. Just stay here. The guest room is empty.
00:20:20I don't typically stay over.
00:20:22Fine. I'll drive.
00:20:33Hello?
00:20:34Congrats, kid. You're officially homeless.
00:20:37Don't bother coming back. You're on your own now.
00:20:44Actually, maybe I'll take you up on that offer.
00:20:48Best decision you'll ever make.
00:20:50Straight to your room. Or mine, if you prefer.
00:21:01You know, I always dreamed of going pro.
00:21:05NFL.
00:21:08Not surprised.
00:21:10You're football crazy.
00:21:12I was a quarterback.
00:21:14One state.
00:21:16But my dad, he had other ideas.
00:21:22He said a Watson doesn't waste his future at throwing a ball around.
00:21:27So,
00:21:30I became the perfect son.
00:21:34Straight A's.
00:21:36Student body president.
00:21:38And just hoping he'd let me play football again.
00:21:51Your turn.
00:21:53Secret for secret.
00:21:57You've seen enough.
00:22:01My dad is a gambler.
00:22:03My family's a mess.
00:22:07There's nothing more to tell.
00:22:11I don't buy it.
00:22:13You've got a bigger secret than that one.
00:22:17One you're afraid to say out loud.
00:22:22Tell me.
00:22:24It can be our little secret.
00:22:38I want to be the only one you do.
00:22:41Let's not pretend you're straight out of this, sweetheart.
00:22:45You're wasted.
00:22:48So, sleep it off.
00:22:51I'm taking a shower.
00:23:13I'm taking a shower.
00:23:18Tin pack you far traveler.
00:23:29Alex, he doesn't date guys.
00:23:33He'll only end up getting hurt.
00:23:51He's a shame.
00:23:52The real secret is.
00:23:54I fell for someone I wasn't supposed to.
00:24:04Alex.
00:24:07Do it again.
00:24:10He really shouldn't.
00:24:13You stay, please.
00:24:33I know your secret.
00:24:36What? What secret?
00:24:43It's about me, isn't it?
00:24:53Alex, tell me everything.
00:25:19It's just a dream.
00:25:21It's just a dream.
00:25:23Don't leave.
00:25:27Alex, let go.
00:25:28Stay.
00:25:50Alex.
00:25:55Since when did you become Mr. Homemaker?
00:25:58I had to impress you somehow.
00:26:00Breakfast is a solid strategy.
00:26:13Check it out.
00:26:15Chef Alex's world-famous grilled cheese Michelin star pending.
00:26:22To survive a crime scene?
00:26:25Hey, I aced sandwich-making class at summer camp.
00:26:39Well, it tastes better than it looks.
00:26:44So, am I a boyfriend material or what?
00:27:00Hey, babe. Can't wait to see you at St. Madam today.
00:27:04Miss you lots. Your fiancé.
00:27:07Alex, he...
00:27:09Doesn't date guys.
00:27:11You'll only end up getting hurt.
00:27:14Hey.
00:27:16You okay?
00:27:17You can drop the act now.
00:27:20No one's around here to impress.
00:27:23What's that supposed to mean?
00:27:29Forget it. I'm heading to the library.
00:27:32Xavier, wait. You didn't even eat anything.
00:27:40Come on.
00:27:43Damn it.
00:27:45You're John's kids, right?
00:27:46Your dad owes me a lot of money.
00:27:48He sold the house. The debt should be cleared.
00:27:51But he didn't pay me a single cent?
00:27:53Oh, shit.
00:27:55O'Dib is that old bastard.
00:27:57You're scared.
00:27:58Either you settle his debt or start taking pieces.
00:28:01That's between you and him.
00:28:04Leave me out of it now.
00:28:06Ow!
00:28:08Ow!
00:28:09You're definitely involved now.
00:28:14Ow!
00:28:15Ow!
00:28:16You're definitely involved now.
00:28:20Back off, asshole.
00:28:21Who the fuck?
00:28:22I tried to look down in your dick.
00:28:26Ow!
00:28:28Two grams.
00:28:29Two days on the old man.
00:28:31He shot a kidney.
00:28:36You okay?
00:28:38Are you okay?
00:28:42Am I okay?
00:28:44Look at your face.
00:28:45You idiot. Why did you do that?
00:28:48I've gone a bit overboard.
00:28:54You need to go to the hospital now.
00:28:56Okay.
00:28:57Come on.
00:28:59It looks like an old fracture has reopened.
00:29:03You need to rest.
00:29:06And no more football for the rest of the season.
00:29:10Or maybe forever.
00:29:16I just wrecked your whole future.
00:29:19Your entire dream.
00:29:22Hey.
00:29:23You matter way more than for them.
00:29:26You're seriously insane.
00:29:29Well.
00:29:31Since this is technically your fault.
00:29:34You definitely owe me.
00:29:35Right?
00:29:38And what exactly do you want?
00:29:41Move in with me.
00:29:42Okay.
00:29:42You can be my personal nurse.
00:29:48Fine.
00:29:51I guess it's the least I could do.
00:29:57Feed me.
00:29:59No, absolutely not.
00:30:08Okay.
00:30:08Okay.
00:30:09Fine.
00:30:10One bite.
00:30:11That's it.
00:30:13Here begins your life as my caretaker.
00:30:26Do you bite now?
00:30:28No.
00:30:29I get started.
00:30:30Then I have to finish it all time.
00:30:32Yeah.
00:30:38And remember.
00:30:39No strenuous activity.
00:30:41Especially involving your shoulder.
00:30:45What if Xavier's on top?
00:30:50Kids these days.
00:30:54You are impossible.
00:30:56Hey.
00:30:57This is a love story, babe.
00:31:00Understanding character.
00:31:01Fine.
00:31:02If that's what it takes.
00:31:12Welcome home, babe.
00:31:16One arm.
00:31:17Wet floor.
00:31:19Potential drowning hazard.
00:31:21Will help.
00:31:23Nice try.
00:31:24You'll manage.
00:31:33Hey, Xavier!
00:31:34Help!
00:31:44You're unbelievable.
00:31:46Unbelievably charming, maybe.
00:31:56Stop it.
00:31:57Put your clothes back on.
00:32:01You're blushing.
00:32:03No, I'm not.
00:32:06Hold this.
00:32:08If it drops.
00:32:10I'll take it as a sign you want me.
00:32:17You really are insane.
00:32:22You can start here.
00:32:30Careful.
00:32:31My scalp's more fragile than my reputation.
00:32:34Shut up.
00:32:35Okay.
00:32:50Nap time's couple time.
00:32:58You think this is funny?
00:33:00Laying up.
00:33:01I'm joking.
00:33:02Am I a punchline to you?
00:33:04A campaign prompt?
00:33:07No, I stuck around because I felt bad for you.
00:33:10And this is how you treat me.
00:33:17Did I overreact?
00:33:20I'm sorry, okay?
00:33:23But...
00:33:25What if I actually fell in love with you?
00:33:33What if I actually fell in love with you?
00:33:39I thought...
00:33:41I hated you.
00:33:43Turns out...
00:33:44I just hated how much I wanted you.
00:33:47Unless we make it real.
00:33:53At first, I just wanted the rumors to stop.
00:34:01Signing that stupid contract felt like my only choice.
00:34:08Then...
00:34:08When everything fell apart...
00:34:12When I started losing the election, you stepped in.
00:34:17I could look into your laptop.
00:34:19You didn't have to, but you saved me.
00:34:22What the fuck are you doing?
00:34:24And when I saw him that close to you...
00:34:27It hurt more...
00:34:29Than losing my damn election ever could have.
00:34:35So...
00:34:37Would you consider making this fear with me?
00:34:39...
00:34:41...
00:34:52...
00:34:54I can't open that stick.
00:35:07I wish you.
00:35:48Good morning, sleeping beauty.
00:35:51I caught you stealing kisses, even though it's a serious crime.
00:35:57I guess you're just gonna have to arrest me then, officer.
00:36:02You are way too addictive.
00:36:06I need rehab.
00:36:10Sorry, no can do.
00:36:14We've got a campaign to salvage. Interviews lined up.
00:36:19You're currently wearing exactly zero clothes.
00:36:27Sounds like you prefer me dressed.
00:36:31Disappointing for you elected, aren't you?
00:36:43Dude, your poll numbers went way up after that speech. I mean, check this out.
00:36:48Your practically senior year Tom Holland. Charming, relatable, but still hot enough for thirst edits.
00:36:54So you're saying my chances are looking good again.
00:36:57Dude, you are literally back up to number one. It's all positive comments.
00:37:01But, how did you pull this off? I mean, Xavier used to be against this whole thing.
00:37:06Now you've got him editing your speeches, organizing your life.
00:37:10Maybe because we're actually together.
00:37:15What kind of black magic witchcraft did you pull to get Mr. Sheldon Cooper to fake date you?
00:37:28I didn't pull anything. I literally just fell for him.
00:37:37I caught feelings for him. That's really all it is.
00:37:40Wait, so you and him...
00:37:45Started fake, got real.
00:37:47But he's Xavier Miller. I mean, he's practically an AI bot with a built in firewall. Totally unreadable.
00:37:53That's just a surface code. You gotta go deeper.
00:37:57But look, I'm just saying it would make way more sense if he were using you for something.
00:38:03For what exactly?
00:38:05Don't forget, Ro used to be your biggest competitor.
00:38:09If this is some sort of long con and he flips on you at the last second...
00:38:14Nobody's that gonna fake me. I trust him.
00:38:24Hey, babe. We were just talking about you.
00:38:35Oh, God. It's actually real.
00:38:48Job hunting?
00:38:50You don't need to pay me back. I thought I made that clear.
00:38:54I know you don't have to worry about this stuff, but I do.
00:38:57It's just planning ahead. Figuring things out for myself.
00:39:02Well, the only thing we need to figure out right now is how to get some sleep.
00:39:13Seriously?
00:39:14Can I ever sleep like a normal person?
00:39:18Normal's boring. I am one of the kind.
00:39:22You know, you're pressing me. Move.
00:39:25Make me.
00:39:27No one's a dream.
00:39:29No one's...
00:39:32No one's a dream.
00:39:35No one's a dream.
00:39:47Nobody's a dream.
00:39:47It's almost what you are.
00:39:49You're choosing your to do.
00:39:53OK, everybody.
00:39:55You're choosing your to do it.
00:40:00Hey, it's wrapped up practice. Thought I'd swing by and pick you up. We can go home together.
00:40:05Swing by? You're half the city away.
00:40:08Fine, you got me. I missed you. Plus, I'm starving and only your pasta will do.
00:40:13I'm actually tempted to clock out right now.
00:40:18Customer, gotta go. See you at home.
00:40:21Hey, welcome. What can I get you?
00:40:23Coffee, black.
00:40:24And a little bit of you.
00:40:26What are you doing here?
00:40:29I had some business nearby. I thought I'd drop in.
00:40:33One block coffee coming up.
00:40:36By the way, uh, did you hear?
00:40:39Apparently, uh, Alex is planning on dumping your ass.
00:40:43Excuse me?
00:40:45His fiancée's flying in next week.
00:40:47Yeah, our dad arranged everything.
00:40:49Apparently, he sees you out of the picture.
00:40:52He sees you out of the picture, so...
00:40:58So...
00:40:59Enjoy.
00:41:00Thanks.
00:41:02You call me anytime sexy.
00:41:19Great. Just what we need right now.
00:41:24So, I know I'm leaving.
00:41:26Is he bothering you again?
00:41:27Same old stirring the pot.
00:41:30Though he did mention your fiancée's flying in next week.
00:41:38So, it's true.
00:41:40I was going to tell you once things were sorted.
00:41:42I just didn't want to stress you out.
00:41:44What? So now I'm just some fragile little thing that you need to protect?
00:41:49Listen, I don't even know her.
00:41:51She's just some random girl my dad set me up with.
00:41:54So, why keep it a secret then?
00:41:55What's the point?
00:41:56I was just...
00:42:00I'm scared of losing you.
00:42:06Let's get out of here.
00:42:08So, we're good?
00:42:10No.
00:42:12But...
00:42:13We've still got roles to play, and right now I need my boyfriend costume.
00:42:22I'll go in first.
00:42:23You park the car.
00:42:23Not even a goodbye kiss.
00:42:41Hey, I have an appointment.
00:42:42A friend booked it for me.
00:42:43Appointments must be confirmed by the client directly.
00:42:47And no offense, but you don't exactly fit our typical clientele.
00:42:56So, judgy.
00:42:58Sheesh.
00:43:00Delighted to see you, Miss Brown.
00:43:02How can I help you today?
00:43:04You're Alex's friend, right?
00:43:11Serpent.
00:43:12But he doesn't have...
00:43:13Do you want to keep your job?
00:43:15Right this way, sir.
00:43:19Thanks.
00:43:20You don't happen to be a friend of us, too?
00:43:27Something like that.
00:43:29He wouldn't be thanking me if he knew I was Alex's fiance.
00:43:41Mr. Watson, a pleasure as always.
00:43:44Can I assist you with our new collection?
00:43:48Actually, I'm here shopping for my boyfriend.
00:43:52Really?
00:43:53Do you have to announce it, Jennifer?
00:43:55I can tweet it out if you prefer.
00:43:58Absolutely delighted to assist you both today.
00:44:01Step one to looking like you have your shit together.
00:44:04A suit that actually fits.
00:44:06This one was made for you.
00:44:08Try it on.
00:44:11Why do I need a suit?
00:44:13It's you who's running for student body president.
00:44:16No, we both are.
00:44:19To the fitting room.
00:44:28Saval row cut.
00:44:30Flawless.
00:44:31And now,
00:44:32the right pair of kicks to pull it all together.
00:44:39You don't have to do that.
00:44:41I want to.
00:44:42Because you're worth it.
00:44:50Looking good.
00:44:52Just need a touch more tailoring.
00:45:05Who's the jacket?
00:45:07Wait, what are you doing?
00:45:08Relax.
00:45:09I'm not going to eat here.
00:45:12Just measuring.
00:45:2930-inch waist.
00:45:32Someone needs some carbs in your life.
00:45:35It's still bad.
00:45:36And I guess I just had to kiss you
00:45:38until you forget me.
00:45:43Mr. Watson,
00:45:45your suit is ready.
00:45:47Thanks.
00:45:48Just leave it out there.
00:45:57Smile.
00:46:07The truth always comes out.
00:46:14Mark?
00:46:14What's up?
00:46:15Emergency.
00:46:16Get to school right now.
00:46:18Things just blew up.
00:46:24Finally, come here.
00:46:25Did someone leak the contract again or something?
00:46:27Worse.
00:46:28We have a new opponent
00:46:29and she is rising fast at him.
00:46:30We have to do something.
00:46:32She?
00:46:32Yeah.
00:46:33Laura Brown,
00:46:34the daughter of a crime family billionaire.
00:46:37Laura.
00:46:37Wait, you know her?
00:46:39At the tailor shop,
00:46:39she acted like she knew you.
00:46:41She does.
00:46:44She's my fiancée.
00:46:46Fiancée?
00:46:47When were you planning on killing us?
00:46:49It was arranged by my dad.
00:46:50I honestly really know her.
00:46:52Well, she seems to know plenty about you two.
00:46:54She's transferred in.
00:46:55She's charming the hell out of everyone.
00:46:57And your numbers are dropping fast.
00:46:59This can't just be a coincidence.
00:47:01Exactly.
00:47:02It isn't.
00:47:02She's transferred in
00:47:03and it's not just about winning the election.
00:47:05This is personal.
00:47:07If they find out
00:47:08about the arranged marriage,
00:47:10it's game over.
00:47:11She'll win by a month.
00:47:12Unless we find a crack in her game.
00:47:14We don't have time for that.
00:47:16Let me handle her.
00:47:18Sounds exciting.
00:47:21Why are you doing this?
00:47:23Maybe because you've got a secret boyfriend?
00:47:27As far as I'm concerned,
00:47:29we only met once.
00:47:30It was to get our parents off our backs.
00:47:32Nothing more.
00:47:32You sure you don't want to give me another shot?
00:47:34I'm way more interesting than...
00:47:37you.
00:47:38You want a fair fight?
00:47:40Fine.
00:47:40But play dirty again,
00:47:41I'll stop being so polite.
00:47:48Big words.
00:47:51We'll see how long that confidence lasts.
00:48:07No.
00:48:08Hey, get out.
00:48:09You're not welcome here.
00:48:11Relax.
00:48:12I'm just here to chat.
00:48:14You want to get into grad school at Princeton,
00:48:16right?
00:48:19Lifelong dream.
00:48:21Well, this
00:48:22is signed by the vice president.
00:48:25Guaranteed entry.
00:48:30No.
00:48:33You're bribing me.
00:48:34I'm not going to fall for it.
00:48:37I figured you'd say that.
00:48:39But my dad,
00:48:41he doesn't take no well.
00:48:43And your dad,
00:48:44poor John,
00:48:46he owes people money.
00:48:48People who don't take kindly to being ignored.
00:48:51Leave my father out of this.
00:48:54And don't force me to call him favors.
00:49:00Relax.
00:49:01I'm not going to steal your boyfriend.
00:49:03And just showing you a better future.
00:49:07And just showing you a better future.
00:49:08Love is overrated anyway.
00:49:11Maybe to you.
00:49:14To Alex, too.
00:49:18By the way,
00:49:19has he wished you happy birthday?
00:49:21Yeah.
00:49:32You need a lift?
00:49:33It cost you a bottle of water from the trunk.
00:49:36Fine.
00:49:38He doesn't even know it's my birthday.
00:49:45Happy birthday, babe.
00:49:54Now,
00:49:54you can finally type the letter M
00:49:56without your love.
00:49:56Happy birthday.
00:49:57Thanks, Alex.
00:50:00I think there's more of a shame.
00:50:11I know you're not big on surprises,
00:50:13but
00:50:13I couldn't help myself.
00:50:15I don't mind the mist there from you.
00:50:21Listen,
00:50:23I'm not a romantic.
00:50:25I'm not going to play a violin
00:50:27outside your window
00:50:28or write you poetry.
00:50:31Hey,
00:50:32you bought me a laptop.
00:50:33I think that's pretty romantic.
00:50:35And practical.
00:50:37Point is,
00:50:40I mean this.
00:50:42Us.
00:50:44I'm all in.
00:50:45For real.
00:50:48I don't need violence.
00:50:49Serenades are poetry.
00:50:51I just need you.
00:50:54You've got me.
00:51:06Let's go back to yours.
00:51:13What'd you do if I caught him from left right now?
00:51:15I'd cry like an idiot.
00:51:17So don't even think about it.
00:51:37It's supposed to help you ace exams,
00:51:40not interrupt morning cuddles.
00:51:42I tracked the Truth Hunter account
00:51:44that leaked our contract.
00:51:46It's someone local.
00:51:49It's got to be someone at school.
00:51:52Anything more?
00:51:54They accidentally switched their webcam on.
00:52:00Laura?
00:52:11She's breaking all sorts of privacy laws here.
00:52:14We should expose her.
00:52:16If we do that,
00:52:17she'll twist it,
00:52:18make us look like the bullies.
00:52:19What else can we do?
00:52:21If people find out about our engagement,
00:52:23they'll believe her side.
00:52:24It's technically true.
00:52:25I am engaged.
00:52:25Then why?
00:52:30Hey,
00:52:31I have an idea.
00:52:32How about some viral couples TikToks?
00:52:35Wholesome stuff?
00:52:36Charity angle?
00:52:38I mean,
00:52:38that works well.
00:52:42Fine.
00:52:43Let's do it.
00:52:55Did you do that on purpose?
00:52:56Yep.
00:53:15Perfect.
00:53:16And cut.
00:53:18Next up,
00:53:19book donations for underprivileged kids.
00:53:23Today,
00:53:24we are joined by the viral campus couple,
00:53:26Alex Watson and Xavier Miller.
00:53:28Welcome.
00:53:29Hey,
00:53:29everyone.
00:53:30Happy to be here.
00:53:31First question,
00:53:32blowing up the chat.
00:53:33Why did you guys join this project?
00:53:35Growing up,
00:53:36books were my only escape.
00:53:38Reading helped me get through some tough times.
00:53:40It's important for me to pass that on.
00:53:43Plus,
00:53:43it's like the only thing we'd ever fight about.
00:53:46Hey,
00:53:47guys.
00:53:48Sorry to interrupt.
00:53:50I'm Alex's friend.
00:53:53Quick question from the comments.
00:53:55Since you're both queer,
00:53:57thoughts on gay guys marrying girls?
00:54:00Like,
00:54:01is it just doing what you gotta do,
00:54:03or is there more to it?
00:54:11Deception?
00:54:12Isn't that Laura Brown?
00:54:15Why do Alex and Xavier look so panicked?
00:54:18Just curious,
00:54:19guys,
00:54:20if someone has a fiancé
00:54:21and a secret boyfriend at the same time,
00:54:25who's the real side piece?
00:54:27Fiancé?
00:54:27What the fuck is going on?
00:54:29Who's lying?
00:54:30Good question.
00:54:31Maybe there's more going on than people think.
00:54:34What's worse,
00:54:36people keeping secrets
00:54:37or people leaking them anonymously?
00:54:42Touché.
00:54:43Touché.
00:54:46Hey,
00:54:47all right.
00:54:48Back on track.
00:54:49Xavier,
00:54:51what's your favorite
00:54:51childhood book?
00:54:53The Hobbit.
00:54:55Growing up,
00:54:56I always wanted my own
00:54:58cozy little Hobbit hole.
00:55:01What the hell are you doing?
00:55:03Are you trying to ruin...
00:55:05Wait and see.
00:55:14Are you out of your life?
00:55:16I'm your fiancé.
00:55:18There's just one little kiss.
00:55:19What's the big deal?
00:55:20You and I both know
00:55:21that this engagement
00:55:22would never happen.
00:55:24Using a fake relationship
00:55:26just to win votes?
00:55:28That's pathetic.
00:55:30Even for you.
00:55:31Xavier and I
00:55:32don't need your approval.
00:55:34Threatening him
00:55:35behind my back,
00:55:36that's crossing the way.
00:55:38Good.
00:55:39Maybe you should keep
00:55:40a better eye on him.
00:55:41Next time,
00:55:42things might get uglier.
00:55:45What exactly is it
00:55:46that you want for me, Laura?
00:55:48Everything
00:55:49that I'm entitled to.
00:55:57Xavier,
00:55:58get to the shop
00:55:59right now.
00:56:00Hi, what's wrong?
00:56:07Fuck my life.
00:56:15He threatened to smash the windows
00:56:17if you didn't show.
00:56:18Scared off every customer we had.
00:56:20I'm sorry,
00:56:21I'll handle it.
00:56:22Just give me a minute.
00:56:23No, we're done.
00:56:24You're fired.
00:56:24I can't keep dealing with this.
00:56:29What do you want?
00:56:30Why don't you
00:56:32call your rich boyfriend?
00:56:36Uh,
00:56:37what's his name?
00:56:38Alex.
00:56:40Tell him we need some money.
00:56:42Daddy needs
00:56:43a bailout.
00:56:45You sold the home
00:56:47mom left us.
00:56:48You abandoned me.
00:56:49And now you want a bailout?
00:56:51You ungrateful brat.
00:56:54Sleeping with me.
00:56:57Humiliating.
00:56:58Humiliating our family.
00:56:59I should have sold you off
00:57:01when I had the chance.
00:57:03Next time I see you,
00:57:05make sure the syndicate
00:57:06knows exactly where you want.
00:57:07Ha ha ha ha ha.
00:57:11You ungrateful brat.
00:57:13You think you're a blood meaner
00:57:15just because you got yourself
00:57:16a rich boyfriend.
00:57:18Hey, what the heck?
00:57:19You care of me?
00:57:20I can only find you,
00:57:22old man.
00:57:22Who are you?
00:57:24I'm sorry.
00:57:25Please don't hurt me.
00:57:27I'll give you the money.
00:57:28Oh, that's too late for that.
00:57:30Oh, please, please.
00:57:32I'm taking you.
00:57:38Where were you today
00:57:39after the live stream?
00:57:41Just to the library.
00:57:43The library?
00:57:44After what happened?
00:57:47I was going around school
00:57:48collecting feedback
00:57:49and I got some ideas
00:57:50that could boost your poll numbers.
00:57:51Jimmy, please.
00:57:53not talk about
00:57:54the election right now.
00:57:56I am so tired.
00:58:03So that's it?
00:58:04You're just giving up?
00:58:06Letting your fiancé take over?
00:58:09What's that supposed to mean?
00:58:12Is there something going on
00:58:13with Laura that I should know about?
00:58:16Can we please
00:58:18just not do this right now?
00:58:24Maybe we should take a break.
00:58:28Xavier, wait.
00:58:36I'm such an idiot
00:58:37thinking I actually meant something to him.
00:58:50Mark, where's Alex?
00:58:51I've been calling.
00:58:52He's at the frat house.
00:58:53Last minute vote grabbing.
00:58:55He's not checking his messages.
00:58:57Not even mine.
00:58:59Election day is tomorrow.
00:59:00He's got to be locked in.
00:59:07Are you all right?
00:59:08Do you need help?
00:59:10No.
00:59:11I'm fine.
00:59:12I'll handle it.
00:59:15Of course.
00:59:17He has people,
00:59:18goals,
00:59:19life.
00:59:21I've only ever had him.
00:59:31What am I supposed to do now?
00:59:38Want to make a deal?
00:59:42Your dad owes money
00:59:43to three different gangs,
00:59:45including mine.
00:59:46Please don't hurt him.
00:59:48I'll figure something out.
00:59:50You can't afford it.
00:59:53Besides,
00:59:54it's the genuino family
00:59:55who took him.
00:59:5724 hours to pay up,
00:59:59or they start sending
01:00:00body parts.
01:00:03What am I supposed to do?
01:00:08Sign this,
01:00:10and I'll clear your dad's debt.
01:00:14But,
01:00:15there's one condition.
01:00:18You have to break up.
01:00:19With Alex,
01:00:20for good.
01:00:25Where was he,
01:00:27when you needed him the most?
01:00:30Can I,
01:00:31please,
01:00:32not talk about the election right now?
01:00:35I am so tired.
01:00:48better keep your work.
01:00:52Browns don't lie.
01:01:00Xavier isn't answering my calls.
01:01:02What did you do?
01:01:03Me?
01:01:05Me?
01:01:06I only saved his father's skin
01:01:07and paid off his debt.
01:01:09He should be banking me.
01:01:11Debt?
01:01:12What debt?
01:01:13Why didn't Xavier tell me?
01:01:15Maybe because he
01:01:17dumped you?
01:01:20You made it pretty clear
01:01:21that you're finished.
01:01:26No way.
01:01:28He wouldn't.
01:01:30I need to talk to him.
01:01:42Why did you tell Laura we broke up?
01:01:44Because it's true.
01:01:45Look,
01:01:45the whole reason why I even dated you
01:01:47was to get into Princeton.
01:01:48Laura sorted that out for me.
01:01:49And she bailed my dad out.
01:01:51Our deal's done.
01:01:53So you're dumping me
01:01:55for a college recommendation.
01:01:57Without her,
01:01:58my dad would be Ted.
01:02:01And you just throw around
01:02:02the word love
01:02:03while holding a contract
01:02:04over my head.
01:02:06Like I'm just another stunt
01:02:08to boost your votes.
01:02:12Xavier,
01:02:13stop.
01:02:14This was never about
01:02:16the contract.
01:02:18I love you, okay?
01:02:19Don't push me away.
01:02:21Love.
01:02:22No,
01:02:23I'm just another
01:02:24song story to you.
01:02:25Up there on your throne,
01:02:26treating me like a charity case.
01:02:28I'm done.
01:02:31You know that's not true.
01:02:34You know me.
01:02:36Do I?
01:02:39You wake up in silk sheets
01:02:41while drinking your fancy coffee.
01:02:44I don't even know
01:02:45where I'm going to sleep tonight.
01:02:48We're worlds apart.
01:02:54Excite.
01:02:55Please,
01:02:56don't do this.
01:02:59Stay away from me, Alex.
01:03:05You make me sick.
01:03:15Get out of my life.
01:03:17We're done.
01:03:22I said get out!
01:03:37I'm so sorry, Alex.
01:03:38That was the hardest thing
01:03:39I've ever done.
01:03:43Sign this,
01:03:44and I'll clear your dad's debt.
01:03:46But,
01:03:48there's one condition.
01:03:51You have to break up
01:03:52with Alex
01:03:54for good.
01:03:58I can't do that.
01:04:00I can't do that.
01:04:00Imagine I post
01:04:02a viral TikTok
01:04:04as the heartbroken
01:04:06fiance
01:04:06betrayed by her
01:04:09closeted boyfriend.
01:04:11Alex won't just
01:04:13lose the election.
01:04:15He'll lose
01:04:16everything.
01:04:19You're twisting
01:04:20the truth.
01:04:22The truth
01:04:23is whatever people believe.
01:04:26He's already
01:04:26losing support,
01:04:27and his family's
01:04:28backing
01:04:28is next.
01:04:33Do you really
01:04:33want to just
01:04:34watch him
01:04:35lose everything else?
01:04:37You're dead weight,
01:04:38Xavier.
01:04:40And we both
01:04:41know it.
01:04:45My family
01:04:46can lift him up.
01:04:50You'll only
01:04:51drag him down.
01:04:53Alex,
01:04:55you're the best thing
01:04:56that's ever happened to me.
01:04:57I won't be the reason
01:04:59your life
01:04:59falls apart.
01:05:02So,
01:05:04you got a sign?
01:05:07You better
01:05:08keep your word.
01:05:10Browns don't lie.
01:05:33Did you forget
01:05:34our agreement?
01:05:42You want me to drop
01:05:43out of the election?
01:05:45Fine.
01:05:47In return,
01:05:48you cut off
01:05:49Xavier and
01:05:50introduce me
01:05:51as your fiancée.
01:05:54if not,
01:05:56I'll email
01:05:57every voter
01:05:58the proof
01:05:58that your relationship
01:05:59was fake
01:06:00from the start.
01:06:03You'll lose
01:06:04everything.
01:06:15Get
01:06:15out.
01:06:27Love or legacy,
01:06:28Alex?
01:06:30Choose wisely.
01:06:42our deal's done.
01:06:44Stay away
01:06:44from me,
01:06:45Alex.
01:06:49You make me sick.
01:07:11I'm safe.
01:07:13I'm safe.
01:07:16I'm safe.
01:07:17I'm safe.
01:07:22I'm safe.
01:07:23I'm safe.
01:07:27I'm safe.
01:07:42I'm safe.
01:07:43I'm safe.
01:07:43I'm safe.
01:07:44I'm safe.
01:07:45I'm safe.
01:07:45I'm safe.
01:07:45I'm safe.
01:07:46I'm safe.
01:07:46I'm safe.
01:07:47I'm safe.
01:07:47I'm safe.
01:07:47I'm safe.
01:07:52Hi, I'm Alex Watson, and today, I am standing here as a liar.
01:08:03Xavier Miller and I were in a fake relationship.
01:08:07We signed a contract.
01:08:10Seriously?
01:08:11What a fake.
01:08:13You lied to all of us.
01:08:19I started as fake, but then, I fell for him.
01:08:25I've never met anyone like Xavier.
01:08:29Hey!
01:08:30This is St. Mountain College, not a fucking pub.
01:08:35You okay, bro?
01:08:40He gave me the brush off.
01:08:42Cold as ice.
01:08:47I thought that he was just some...
01:08:49Eric and genius who didn't have time for a guy like me.
01:08:56It all started with a stupid onstage accident.
01:09:02Kiss.
01:09:03I want you to be my boyfriend.
01:09:06You investigated me.
01:09:10Oh, my God.
01:09:13We need people to buy this, right?
01:09:18Unless we make it real.
01:09:21You don't have to do that.
01:09:23I want to.
01:09:24Happy birthday, babe.
01:09:26Because you're worth it.
01:09:27I mean this.
01:09:28Us.
01:09:29I'm all in.
01:09:30For real.
01:09:30I just need you.
01:09:36Xavier.
01:09:38Listen to me.
01:09:39I know you're watching.
01:09:41Fuck the election.
01:09:44Fuck family expectations.
01:09:46Fuck football.
01:09:48None of it matters without you.
01:09:50You are the only thing I have ever truly wanted.
01:09:58You are the only thing I have ever truly wanted.
01:10:05The votes are in and the new student body president is Alex Watson.
01:10:12Alex, come on up and give your speech.
01:10:16Where is he?
01:10:23You're an idiot.
01:10:33What are you doing here?
01:10:34You just won the election.
01:10:36Screw the election.
01:10:37It's you I want.
01:10:42But he's winning then everything to you.
01:10:44Not if everybody's losing you.
01:10:47No.
01:10:54You are such a reckless asshole.
01:10:57That was pretty sweet.
01:11:00Winning you beats any election.
01:11:06All right.
01:11:07That line is a solid time.
01:11:15With all this construction, are they building something?
01:11:18Close.
01:11:19It's a decade make-out spot.
01:11:21Presidential access only.
01:11:25I'll maybe try to occupy it.
01:11:27Hey.
01:11:28I'm just keeping my campaign promises.
01:11:35He remembers.
01:11:37The football kit budget was inflated 230%.
01:11:41Money that could have paid for transport for students working late.
01:11:45Of course I did.
01:11:46It was the first time someone called me out for real.
01:11:49It's stuck.
01:11:51Already testing out the new spot?
01:11:54Bold.
01:11:55What now?
01:11:59Relax.
01:12:00And hear her say goodbye.
01:12:02Goodbye.
01:12:05Turns out our dads officially saw reason.
01:12:07The engagement's officially canceled.
01:12:10You're free, Alex.
01:12:12Just like that.
01:12:13I'm not even worth fighting for.
01:12:14Can you let her finish?
01:12:16Truth is, I didn't want to marry you either.
01:12:20And why did you try to come between us?
01:12:24I just wanted to prove myself.
01:12:27To my parents.
01:12:29To everyone.
01:12:34But watching how fiercely you two stood by each other.
01:12:38Honestly, I envy that.
01:12:41The prince and things still stand, please.
01:12:43You and Dutch.
01:12:45Thanks, Flora.
01:12:48I'm off to Paris.
01:12:49New family business venture.
01:12:52Maybe see y'all sometime.
01:12:59Think she'll be okay?
01:13:01She'll be fine.
01:13:02She's tougher than both of us.
01:13:15All the way around here.
01:13:21All the way around here.
