00:00:02Master Marco had a widow named Ava Jackson and she was carrying his child.
00:00:08I'm going to bring my daughter-in-law home where she belongs.
00:00:12My brother, I will protect your legacy and I will protect our family.
00:00:17Who are you, really?
00:00:21A mere day she has swung with our family out of millions of dollars.
00:00:26I've wanted Luka for years and then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks.
00:00:31If I can't have him, I'll destroy him.
00:00:35Your life belongs to us.
00:00:38Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.
00:00:43From this moment forward, I swear to you, nobody will ever eat me.
00:00:49I guess my brother had good reason to fall for her.
00:00:58Ava, you're so close.
00:01:00Is this a dream?
00:01:03If anyone sees us like this, they'll immediately assume the worst.
00:01:08Ava, I have fallen in love with you.
00:01:10I'm your brother's wife.
00:01:12We didn't do anything wrong, so why are you worried?
00:01:14If you knew I had feelings for your brother, would you hate me?
00:01:31I should never have let you go undercover on that damn business deal.
00:01:36I never even got to say goodbye.
00:01:38Marco, my brother, I will protect your legacy.
00:01:42And I will protect our family.
00:01:50Hey, hey!
00:01:52Who are you?
00:01:53Which family do you work for?
00:01:54I just came to drop off the flowers. I didn't mean to retreat.
00:01:57Luca, look at her.
00:02:00She's hardly a threat.
00:02:07For the flowers, and for the interruption, my apologies.
00:02:23Signor Mancini,
00:02:24Mr. Marco had a widow named Ava Jackson.
00:02:27And she was carrying his child.
00:02:30Get the car.
00:02:32Let me bring my daughter-in-law home, where she belongs.
00:02:43Don't worry, little one.
00:02:45We'll get through this together.
00:02:48Somehow.
00:02:51Well, looky here.
00:02:54The family jinx is finally six feet under.
00:03:05Derek, have you lost your mind? What the hell was that?
00:03:09Don't tell me that you're actually planning on keeping that little parasite.
00:03:13This is Marco's baby. This is our child.
00:03:18Of course I'm keeping it.
00:03:20Ever since you got knocked up, you've done nothing to help this family.
00:03:24Anyway, we've been struggling while you've been out here playing the grieving widow.
00:03:28Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.
00:03:34Because you owe me.
00:03:37This is your fault.
00:03:40I dropped out of college for this family. I took five jobs.
00:03:44What more could you possibly want?
00:03:45You'll never be enough, Ava. You'll owe us till the day you die.
00:03:50Please. Sweetheart, think of your brother.
00:03:58I'm gonna stomp out that little bastard right now.
00:04:01Send him straight to hell, so he can say hello to his deadbeat dad.
00:04:08Hex!
00:04:35Hex!
00:04:35I broke up. She's hardly up the ground.
00:04:40Ma'am?
00:04:42I'm Helena Mancini, Marco's mother.
00:04:48That means I'm your baby's grandmother.
00:04:52The most powerful mafia family in the country.
00:04:57Marco was my oldest. He was my golden boy.
00:05:00I am so sorry that he concealed his identity from you.
00:05:06You have endured far too much suffering because of it.
00:05:12Plain make-believe, Mancini?
00:05:15Seriously, like, is anybody here actually buying this?
00:05:18Question my identity again, and my men will make sure your other leg looks like your first one.
00:05:25Permanently.
00:05:27What are you doing?
00:05:28Derek, run!
00:05:30Maybe we should just go.
00:05:33One moment, dear.
00:05:35Anyone who raises a hand to my daughter-in-law deserves to have their fingers snapped.
00:05:42One by one.
00:05:47Come along, my dear.
00:05:49Let's get you home.
00:05:51To your real home.
00:05:52Come on.
00:05:53Oh my God.
00:05:59Oh my God.
00:05:59Come on.
00:06:15Welcome home, Signora Eva Mancini.
00:06:18This is where Marco lived.
00:06:30Allow me to introduce you to your personal staff, Mrs. Mancini, your nutritionist, nanny,
00:06:35maternity nurse, each the finest specialist money can acquire.
00:06:38We pledge your absolute dedication to your health and well-being, signore.
00:06:45Your days of working multiple jobs are over, my dear.
00:06:49Ten million dollars is a little spending money.
00:06:52Well, thank you, but I can't accept this.
00:06:56I married Marco for love, not for his fortune.
00:07:02Practical and principled, my Marco truly had an eye for quality.
00:07:06There is one more member of the family that you need to properly meet.
00:07:12That would be Luca, Marco's younger brother, the brooding iceberg that you encountered this morning.
00:07:18Well, well, well, there's a flower girl in the cemetery.
00:07:23Luca, come meet Ava, your brother's wife.
00:07:27Please, show her proper respect.
00:07:31Respect.
00:07:34You walk back into a Mancini household, you're either incredibly stupid or incredibly brave.
00:07:43Luca, open this door immediately.
00:07:48Everyone around back, now.
00:07:53Who are you, really?
00:07:56I'll be watching your every move, your every breath.
00:08:01So tell me, who are you, really?
00:08:05My brother's dead, and you appear suddenly?
00:08:08Was this your end game all along?
00:08:11Our fortune?
00:08:12I didn't know Marco's a Mancini.
00:08:15And now?
00:08:15I don't need this.
00:08:16I can walk right out those doors.
00:08:18You can't walk anywhere.
00:08:19She's not going anywhere.
00:08:24And get your hands off of her.
00:08:27She is carrying Marco's child.
00:08:29Oh, is she?
00:08:31How do we even know it is Marco's child?
00:08:33Convenient timing, wouldn't you say?
00:08:38Question the line you want, but don't you dare question my child.
00:08:42That's my girl.
00:08:44Backbone of steel.
00:08:46Are you hurt?
00:08:48Luca, you are too rude.
00:08:51Ava is a good girl.
00:08:52You are falsely accusing her.
00:08:54Come on, sweetie.
00:08:56Mom's going to take you and get some clothes.
00:08:57Pay no attention to this fool.
00:09:03You may be fooling them.
00:09:05But I will find out about you and I will expose you.
00:09:23These are all the latest European styles.
00:09:26Take your pick.
00:09:27I have plenty to wear.
00:09:29And these are much too expensive.
00:09:31Oh, not to worry.
00:09:33It's all on Luca's card.
00:09:35Treat my dear daughter-in-law well.
00:09:58I'll be close.
00:10:04I'll never have any more trouble.
00:10:05I don't know where you are.
00:10:06Do you know what I want?
00:10:06I don't know why I want you.
00:10:10I don't know how to get this gold.

00:17:06you
00:17:08you
00:17:19Mom, hey.
00:17:22How's Ava? How's the baby?
00:17:25The doctors are examining her now.
00:17:31Doctor, how is she?
00:17:32Mrs. Mancini has a severe ankle fracture that it needs immediate surgery.
00:17:37The medication could cause a miscarriage.
00:17:40So we need to have consent before we can proceed.
00:17:44Do it. Whatever it takes.
00:17:45No!
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.
00:17:59This baby is Marco's only child. His only heir.
00:18:03I can't risk losing it. I can handle the pain.
00:18:07Oh, my brave girl. God bless you.
00:18:13You know, I think somebody should be with her during the operation.
00:18:16The pain would be just too intense.
00:18:19I'll stay with her.
00:18:44How'd it go, doctor?
00:18:45It's a success.
00:18:47You're a real trooper, if you don't mind me saying.
00:18:51I guess my brother had good reason to fall for her.
00:19:13Senora Ava, please, let me help you.
00:19:25I 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.
00:19:35No, Mom, I cannot accept that.
00:19:40We're family. It's what you deserve.
00:19:43Actually, I've been thinking about doing something else.
00:19:48I'd like to go back to work.
00:19:51Work? But you're pregnant.
00:19:55Oh, honey, if you need money, I'll just transfer some into your account.
00:19:57No, 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.
00:20:17Look, you're going to need protection.
00:20:20You'll accompany her.
00:20:24No, no, no, no, no. I can manage on my own.
00:20:30In the morning, 10 a.m., I'll be at the entrance.
00:20:42You know that I can talk to your manager for you.
00:20:45Make sure that they accommodate every need.
00:20:47No need. I don't want any special treatments.
00:20:50But thank you for the ride.
00:20:54You know, Ava, you do not need to be afraid of me.
00:20:57I can help you whenever you need.
00:21:18Why is she even back?
00:21:20That pregnant belly ruins the source of static.
00:21:22These pregnant women know exactly what they're doing.
00:21:25Hiding behind maternity protections.
00:21:28We can't legally fire her.
00:21:30Could you reassign her to the warehouse?
00:21:32Maybe move some stock around?
00:21:34And if something happens to her or the baby, you want that liability?
00:21:38We can't fire her, but we certainly can make her life difficult enough
00:21:43that she decides to quit on her own.
00:22:04And that concludes our quarterly revenue projections.
00:22:11Sir, forgive my directness, but are we here because you're concerned about your sister-in-law?
00:22:22Should I have the car brought around for your next meeting?
00:22:26Cancel the meeting?
00:22:31I've been meaning to talk to you, given your, um, condition.
00:22:36I've been worried about potential liability issues.
00:22:39My pregnancy will not affect my performance.
00:22:42I do not intend to take advantage of company policy.
00:22:45Oh, glad to hear that.
00:22:48Then you won't mind proving your commitment.
00:22:51Sell $1 million worth of merchandise by today,
00:22:54and I'll put all of my concerns to rest.
00:22:57I've seen your sales record.
00:22:59I know you can do it.
00:23:01I know you can do it.
00:23:08To all the doubters, doubters
00:23:12To those who don't believe
00:23:15This is the hour, hour
00:23:19You see
00:23:20There will only gliders out of obstacles
00:23:23And stepping stones from roadblocks
00:23:25Sleep over the lines that say we won't cross
00:23:28But you can't answer for nothing
00:23:30Then once it's coming
00:23:32Scale or otherwise we built a hole with us
00:23:35They may be blinding me
00:23:38Just waiting
00:23:39Sir, half an hour until closing
00:23:43And mrs. Mancini has already surpassed the store's average monthly sales in a single day
00:23:49But she's still a great deal short of the manager's impossible target
00:23:56She did make it clear that she doesn't want any special treatment
00:24:00But I have been neglecting my own wardrobe
00:24:02And the Rossley family event will require several new suits
00:24:06Now that you mention it, sir
00:24:07Your formal collection is missing quite a few essential items
00:24:11And I should do some personal shopping
00:24:13Shouldn't I?
00:24:19Sir, may I assist you?
00:24:21Sir! This limited edition silk tie would go perfect with your complexions
00:24:25Sir, I'd be happy to take your measurements personally
00:24:28Sir, as store manager I would be honored to assist you with your needs myself
00:24:35I'd actually like Ms. Jackson to assist me
00:24:38I hear her taste in men's fashion is exceptional
00:24:45Shall we begin?
00:24:47Right this way, sir
00:24:53I just need to take your measurements
00:24:57Whoa, what are you doing?
00:24:59Your measurements on?
00:25:02I just needed you to take the jacket off
00:25:04Well, we don't have much time
00:25:11Trust me
00:25:13I know
00:25:18Now
00:25:20Measure me like this
00:25:23Okay
00:25:26Okay
00:25:27Mm-hmm
00:25:49Ava
00:25:50Time is almost up
00:26:09I did it
00:26:10I saved my job
00:26:11And I made a new sales record
00:26:15Thank you
00:26:15There's no reason to thank me
00:26:18I'm here to help
00:26:18Whenever you need it
00:26:21I hate to do this
00:26:23But
00:26:24But
00:26:25David Jackson
00:26:26You're fired
00:26:29You're fired
00:26:29What?
00:26:30No
00:26:32I met your target and then some
00:26:34Oh
00:26:35That last sale?
00:26:36The one that put you over the top?
00:26:38That was actually mine
00:26:40You're trying to steal my commission
00:26:41Well, that won't work
00:26:43Because everyone in this store
00:26:44Saw me make that sale
00:26:51I get it
00:26:52You threatened them into silence
00:26:54Well, that won't work either
00:26:55Because the security cameras caught everything
00:26:58Security cameras
00:27:08What horrible timing
00:27:10Unfortunately, the security cameras are down for maintenance today
00:27:14But fortunately, everyone here saw you destroy thousands of dollars worth of merchandise
00:27:20You guys, you all saw Ava, didn't you?
00:27:23Yeah, we all saw it
00:27:26So someone should call security
00:27:28Better yet, call the police
00:27:38I'm sorry sir, but we're closed for the day
00:27:40I heard this store get trashed
00:27:42I'm gonna have to ask you to leave or I'm gonna have to call the police
00:27:45The police work for me
00:27:47Are you?
00:27:49Luca Mancini?
00:27:51I just saw you
00:27:54Are you ready?
00:27:59Thank you
00:28:43Please stop. I admit it. I was wrong.
00:28:46Who really damaged the merchandise in this store?
00:28:48The items they need to store are worth over several millions of dollars at five years in prison.
00:28:57Hugo, what happened?
00:28:59There's nothing worth talking about. We need to go.
00:29:00And by the way, you're fired.
00:29:03Let's go. Mom could just do it.
00:29:09Ochedero, questa stronza.
00:29:12How dare that woman mess with my family.
00:29:15I will make sure, personally, that she suffers for it.
00:29:19You don't have to worry about that anymore.
00:29:21It's all taken care of, thanks to Luca.
00:29:24The store looked like a tornado hit it.
00:29:26Mandy will be serving time in a jail cell.
00:29:29Justice is served.
00:29:30That's my boy.
00:29:35Sweetheart, I would like you to concentrate full-time on your pregnancy right now.
00:29:40All of this work drama can wait until after my grandchild is born safely.
00:29:45Yes, Mommy.
00:29:47I transferred five million dollars into your personal account for prenatal care.
00:29:52I am worried about the baby's well-being.
00:29:56Luca, I'd like you to take her to the doctor tomorrow for an exam.
00:29:59No, that's really not necessary.
00:30:06I have those meetings in Europe, so possibly I could have some more substituting for me.
00:30:10Yeah, and I'm perfectly capable of going by myself.
00:30:14I don't want to travel, Luca, with something so routine.
00:30:20It's decided.
00:30:22Cancel whatever meetings you have.
00:30:24I want you to take her.
00:30:26I will not stand for any more incidents.
00:30:29Yes, Mother.
00:30:43Ava Jackson, we're ready for you now.
00:30:46Dad should come too.
00:30:48We encourage partner participation.
00:30:51Oh, no, he's not.
00:30:56Would you prefer that I explain that I'm your dead husband's brother?
00:31:00That might be a bit awkward.
00:31:01Mr. and Mrs. Jackson, please come in when you're ready.
00:31:04Coming.
00:31:11If you could lift your top up slightly and lower your skirt band just a bit, we'll get started.
00:31:24First prenatal checkup together, I'm guessing.
00:31:32The baby looks perfectly healthy.
00:31:35Current length is about three inches with a strong heart rate.
00:31:40Is the baby moving?
00:31:42Yes, indeed.
00:31:44Look there.
00:31:45The little one's making faces.
00:31:49Quite the expressive child already.
00:31:55Dad?
00:31:57Don't you want to come take a look?
00:32:04The baby's at 18 weeks now, developing beautifully.
00:32:10For home care, I recommend plenty of rest, nutrient-rich foods, and tactile bonding when possible.
00:32:19Tactile bonding?
00:32:21Yes.
00:32:21It's quite beneficial for fetal development.
00:32:25Come over here and place your hands on her belly.
00:32:28Doctor, is that really appropriate?
00:32:31What's inappropriate about it?
00:32:33This is what husbands do.
00:32:38Okay.
00:32:51Sorry, did I hurt you?
00:32:53No, no.
00:32:54It just feels strange.
00:32:57Like this.
00:32:59Top to bottom.
00:33:01Left to right.
00:33:03Gentle strokes.
00:33:07Got it.
00:33:10Do this once daily, five to ten minutes each.
00:33:16You can sit up now.
00:33:24So, everything good with the baby?
00:33:26Any special instructions I should know about?
00:33:30Nothing.
00:33:31Nothing, no.
00:33:32The doctor did say that the baby is developing beautifully, and there's nothing to worry about.
00:33:38Good news, then.
00:33:41Before I forget, the Rossi family's daughter is having her birthday celebration next weekend, and we should all attend.
00:33:49The Rossi family?
00:33:52Technically, 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.
00:34:04Mom, please.
00:34:05Miss Sofia Rossi has arrived unannounced.
00:34:10She shows up without calling?
00:34:12How gauche.
00:34:14Should we send Ava upstairs?
00:34:16No, no, it's fine.
00:34:17I'm here.
00:34:17We can just...
00:34:21Good evening, Mrs. Mancini.
00:34:24Luca!
00:34:24Luca, I came to personally deliver my birthday invitation.
00:34:26Okay.
00:34:31Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:33Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:35Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:34:36Rossi's family lack of manners ever disappoints me.
00:34:40Luca Mancini, how dare you speak to me like that?
00:34:43Miss Rossi, right?
00:34:44I've heard so much about your family.
00:34:48I'm Ava, Marco's wife.
00:34:51Marco was Luca's brother.
00:34:56Oh, okay.
00:34:57I thought you were carrying Luca's baby.
00:35:00That's good, because I'm nice.
00:35:02I came all this way to bring you that, and this is how you welcome me?
00:35:06Don't disappoint me at the party, darling.
00:35:08Wear something sharp.
00:35:12Yes.
00:35:22See if there's any connection between that pregnant woman and Luca.
00:35:25I'm not buying this whole sister-in-law act for one second.
00:35:28You got it.
00:35:33Oh, you look so handsome.
00:35:38Well, well, well.
00:35:40It looks like my stubborn son has good taste after all.
00:35:44Luca did an excellent job selecting this gown.
00:35:47It is perfect for you.
00:35:49Luca picked this?
00:35:50Uh-huh.
00:35:53I've never been anywhere this fancy before.
00:35:57I might embarrass you guys.
00:35:59Oh, don't even worry about it.
00:36:02You are my pride and joy.
00:36:04Besides, Luca will be with us the whole time,
00:36:07and he'll make sure everything runs smoothly.
00:36:13Luca?
00:36:14What about her shoes?
00:36:15How could you forget something so basic?
00:36:44How could you forget something so basic?
00:36:45Right there.
00:36:50No problem.
00:36:52Just don't want you to fall.
00:37:08Who's that with Mr. Mancini?
00:37:10She's clearly pregnant.
00:37:12Do you think that's Mr. Mancini's baby?
00:37:14I had no idea he was even married.
00:37:16Must be his mistress.
00:37:18Oh, sure.
00:37:19Everyone, I would like to introduce Ava Mancini,
00:37:23my eldest son Marco's wife.
00:37:25Marco's wife?
00:37:27She's stunning.
00:37:30This 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 cause a scene here.
00:37:41It's fine.
00:37:42She's always like this.
00:37:45We didn't mean to steal your spotlight.
00:37:48An apology simply isn't enough.
00:37:51Since you're Luca's sister-in-law,
00:37:53why don't you entertain us all
00:37:54with a performance of some kind?
00:37:57Look!
00:37:58She used to deliver food for a living!
00:38:00Waitress, retail clerk, cleaning lady?
00:38:03What could someone with her background
00:38:04possibly perform for this crowd?
00:38:17Ava, how does this piece go again?
00:38:20I'm completely lost here.
00:38:22I've forgotten everything that you've told me.
00:38:24There's no way she could actually play.
00:38:26She's just a nobody from nowhere.
00:38:29He has to be setting her up.
00:38:30Even Miss Mancini is smiling,
00:38:33just waiting for her to crash and burn.
00:38:54I was just playing for the baby.
00:38:57I think he recognized the music
00:38:59you were playing for us earlier.
00:39:01Well, maybe you should teach me sometime properly.
00:39:06I'd like to play for you both.
00:39:10Because Mom did tell me to look after you,
00:39:13so it's the least that I can do.
00:39:26One chair, and there.
00:39:30One chair, and there.
00:40:03They're definitely more than in-laws.
00:40:06Look at the way they play together.
00:40:08If I can't have him,
00:40:10I'll destroy them both.
00:40:17Yeah, I always enjoy these type of events.
00:40:20Me too.
00:40:20That had to spill out.
00:40:22From Miss Rossi.
00:40:23The accompaniments.
00:40:25Cheers.
00:40:29Sir, that drink is almost certainly drugged.
00:40:32Obviously.
00:40:33Is the Rossi family making a move against us?
00:40:36These tensions have been simmering for years.
00:40:38Should we respond preemptively?
00:40:44Do 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.
00:40:59I don't think all this excitement
00:41:01is good for your condition.
00:41:02Why don't you try to find Luca
00:41:04and let's get you home.
00:41:07Okay.
00:41:30Sophia's bedroom.
00:41:32Why is Luca's phone in there?
00:41:34And why am I jealous?
00:41:52I've wanted Luca for years.
00:41:54And then you waltz in
00:41:56and get his attention in weeks?
00:42:01You won't look so innocent
00:42:02when everyone sees you in bed
00:42:04next to your dead husband's brother.
00:42:06This isn't exactly how you want it.
00:42:09Not at all.
00:42:10This isn't convincing.
00:42:11Unbutton their clothes.
00:42:19Sal, position them closer together.
00:42:22Make it look more intimate.
00:42:28Perfect.
00:42:29Let's go.
00:42:30Our masterpiece is complete.
00:42:32Now we just have to bring in an audience.
00:42:43I expected much more
00:42:45than just this juvenile prank
00:42:46from my business partner.
00:42:58Ava, wake up.
00:43:02Ava.
00:43:03Ava.
00:43:16Ava.
00:43:19What happened to us?
00:43:24This is bad.
00:43:35If anyone sees us like this,
00:43:37they'll immediately assume the worst.
00:43:43Luca, wake up.
00:43:48Okay.
00:43:50I'm out.
00:43:52Whoa!
00:43:53Whoa!
00:43:55Jesus.
00:43:56People are coming.
00:43:57You're acting like we had some tour de faire.
00:43:59We didn't do anything wrong,
00:44:01so why are you worrying?
00:44:02I'm your late brother's widow
00:44:03and I'm carrying his child.
00:44:05If anyone sees us like this,
00:44:07they'll...
00:44:07The Mancini family name
00:44:08won't be destroyed.
00:44:09Okay.
00:44:11Okay.
00:44:12Oh, so Mancini name
00:44:15is what you're concerned about.
00:44:16Is that it?
00:44:17Hey, hey, hey.
00:44:18You haven't answered me.
00:44:23Thank you all so much
00:44:25for coming today
00:44:26to celebrate me,
00:44:27but I do have some rather
00:44:30important information
00:44:31to share with you all.
00:44:32I have just discovered
00:44:34Luca Mancini
00:44:35in a rather
00:44:36compromising position
00:44:38with his brother's
00:44:40pregnant widow
00:44:41in my bedroom.
00:44:52Can you let go?
00:44:56They're coming.
00:44:57They're coming.
00:44:58Wait.
00:45:01Here, I got this one.
00:45:02Watch out.
00:45:02Wait, stop!
00:45:03Watch, they're right there!
00:45:05If we walk through that door,
00:45:06we'll walk right into their trap.
00:45:08Okay, then what's your brilliant idea?
00:45:09Yes, ma'am?
00:45:10Um, we...
00:45:12Let's go through the window.
00:45:13We can climb down.
00:45:14Whoa, whoa, whoa, no.
00:45:15No, no, I'm afraid of heights.
00:45:18You're what?
00:45:20I'm sorry.
00:45:21I just didn't realize
00:45:22the great Luca Mancini
00:45:24had fears like the rest of us.
00:45:26Yeah, you know,
00:45:27that's one of my fears
00:45:28and I don't advertise it,
00:45:29so deal with it.
00:45:31What the hell's do?
00:45:34I'm sorry.
00:45:35Where are these cheaters
00:45:36you promised to expose?
00:45:38Keep it down, you idiot.
00:45:39You don't want to wake them.
00:45:40I mean,
00:45:41we don't want to alert them
00:45:43to give them the chance to escape.
00:45:45They're coming.
00:45:46Let's go.
00:45:48Okay.
00:45:49Hurry, hurry.
00:45:54No, no, no.
00:45:55Don't run.
00:45:56We have to catch them in the act first.
00:45:57Are you insane?
00:45:58Your house is on fire.
00:45:59Who cares about the gossip?
00:46:01Let's get out of here.
00:46:02No, no, no.
00:46:02No, I'll help everyone leave afterwards,
00:46:04but first let's get a look at them.
00:46:06Come on.
00:46:29What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:46:31I am so sorry.
00:46:32It was an accident.
00:46:33Please.
00:46:35Okay?
00:46:36Yeah.
00:46:38The staff prepared everything for you
00:46:40and there's hot water in there.
00:46:46And what about you?
00:46:48We'll just be out here
00:46:49taking guard for you.
00:46:51Now go on.
00:46:52It's warm.
00:46:53Thanks.
00:46:56Let's go.
00:47:27What is it?
00:47:29Uh, Miss Rossi is demanding to see you, sir.
00:47:32She's quite insistent.
00:47:34Okay, let her run.
00:47:39You set off the fire alarms and completely scared away my guests.
00:47:42You've ruined my birthday celebration.
00:47:54Hey!
00:47:55Hey, you will take full responsibility for what you did.
00:47:58The drugging, the setup, all of it.
00:48:01And if you ever threaten Ava again, directly or indirectly,
00:48:06I will end the Rossi family from this city permanently.
00:48:10You're a monster.
00:48:11That's her in there, isn't it?
00:48:13Ava?
00:48:14Your dead brother's wife?
00:48:15How dare you?
00:48:18Get your hands off of me!
00:48:20Do you know who I am?
00:48:36Ava?
00:48:37Ava?
00:48:47Ava?
00:48:48Ava?
00:48:49Ava?
00:48:50Ava, you're so close.
00:48:52Is this a dream?
00:49:00Luca, I'm your brother's wife.
00:49:03So, this isn't a dream.
00:49:04I, um...
00:49:08Ava, I've had feelings for you for so long.
00:49:11I've tried to keep them a secret, but I, uh...
00:49:14I can't keep them any longer.
00:49:17And now you know my two secrets, and by family code,
00:49:22I have to silence the person who discovers my weaknesses.
00:49:27Luca, let me go.
00:49:29No, no, no, but I can't silence you, because, Ava, I have fallen in love with you.
00:49:34Oh, God, that's not funny.
00:49:38Look, I've never been more serious.
00:49:42Look, Ava, every time I come around you, I...
00:49:46I feel myself slipping.
00:49:48And my feelings have crossed that line months ago.
00:49:53Stop, stop, just stop.
00:49:56I'll forget this ever happened.
00:49:58No, Ava.
00:50:00I want to take care of you.
00:50:02And the baby.
00:50:04For the rest of my life.
00:50:14Luca, I...
00:50:15I'm sorry.
00:50:17I'm sorry.
00:50:21Luca, what's going on?
00:50:22Why isn't Ava home?
00:50:25What's going on here?
00:50:27Mom, I...
00:50:28Nothing.
00:50:30My clothes were dirty, so Luca prepared for me a shower and clean clothes.
00:50:35Oh, thank goodness.
00:50:37The last thing we need is for you to catch pneumonia.
00:50:39Yeah, I know.
00:50:41Ava, I think that we should probably...
00:50:44Luca...
00:50:46I can't say we're...
00:50:47It's almost Marco's birthday.
00:50:49Let's visit his grave.
00:50:52He's your brother and my husband.
00:50:55And we don't want to betray his memory.
00:50:59Oh, you poor thing.
00:51:00You must be utterly exhausted.
00:51:02Let's get you home.
00:51:04These Rossis are nothing but trouble.
00:51:07We need to accelerate our plans against them.
00:51:10Changing hearts.
00:51:11Hmm.
00:51:13Changing hearts.
00:51:17Changing hearts.
00:51:20Marco.
00:51:21Marco.
00:51:23I miss you.
00:51:27I feel so lost without you.
00:51:33Would you hate me...
00:51:36If you knew I had feelings for your brother?
00:51:42Ava, are you in there?
00:51:52Ava, are you there?
00:51:54I meant everything that I said today.
00:51:58And I want to help you get through this.
00:52:00And I want to protect you.
00:52:02Marco and Mom...
00:52:04They would both understand.
00:52:08Ava, I love you.
00:52:24Ava, I love you.
00:52:24I understand how difficult this is.
00:52:27Your loyalty for Marco...
00:52:30And your concern for my mother...
00:52:31That is the compassion that...
00:52:33That's the reason I fell in love with you.
00:52:39There's $30 million on this credit card...
00:52:42And the pin number is your birthday.
00:52:44And the pin number is your birthday.
00:52:44I've been through webs and flows...
00:52:46And this goodbye felt like the end...
00:52:49Can't deny, I can't pretend...
00:52:52That this fire burns again...
00:52:58Illuminated rain...
00:52:59I feel alive...
00:53:01One more time...
00:53:03Our worlds collide...
00:53:05Watch them circling in the sky...
00:53:08We are magnetic sides...
00:53:11I'm calling you...
00:53:12Wait for me...
00:53:14No one loves me like you do...
00:53:25The baby's development is right on track.
00:53:29Perfect, actually.
00:53:32Has your husband been doing those...
00:53:34Tactile bonding exercises I showed you?
00:53:37Doctor...
00:53:38Uh...
00:53:39Actually, he's not exactly my...
00:53:41No need to be embarrassed.
00:53:43The way that man looks at you...
00:53:44Is something special.
00:53:50Now, face each other.
00:53:52Helena, take her hands.
00:53:55Deep inhale.
00:53:57And lean into each other.
00:53:59Using each other's weight to support you.
00:54:04Come up.
00:54:09On the exhale, do a gentle squat.
00:54:15And then share...
00:54:17And embrace.
00:54:21You have any hope?
00:54:28Who exactly are you welcoming home, dear daughter-in-law?
00:54:32I was just...
00:54:34Talking nonsense.
00:54:45I'll get it.
00:54:51Miss, flowers from Mr. Mancini.
00:55:15To me...
00:55:27I wonder if he's doing well out there.
00:55:44Hello?
00:55:45Ava?
00:55:46I'm outside at the gate.
00:55:48Security won't let me in.
00:55:55Mom, what are you doing here?
00:55:57I missed you terribly, sweetheart.
00:55:59I just wanted to check on you and the baby.
00:56:06Look, fresh oranges.
00:56:08Just picked today.
00:56:10You need the vitamin C for the baby's development.
00:56:12I'm on a very carefully monitored diet.
00:56:16You wasted a trip.
00:56:21Look, I know that you haven't forgiven me, but 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
00:56:32them.
00:56:33I mean, what choice did I have?
00:56:36That's not rehash the past.
00:56:38Of course.
00:56:39I picked these up for my grandchild.
00:56:43Aren't they precious?
00:56:46That baby that you're carrying is my family, too.
00:56:50I love him so much already.
00:56:53Look, I stood up for you to Derek.
00:56:56And he threw me out.
00:56:57I had absolutely nothing left.
00:57:09This card contains all the money I've saved.
00:57:12It's yours.
00:57:13But you have to promise me that you'll use it for yourself.
00:57:16Not a penny goes to Derek.
00:57:18Okay.
00:57:19I swear it.
00:57:20Not a cent to him.
00:57:22How much money are we talking about?
00:57:24$10,000.
00:57:27$10,000?
00:57:29That's it.
00:57:30You're carrying the Mancini heir and all they've given you is $10,000.
00:57:35That is my personal savings.
00:57:38I haven't asked the Mancinis for a cent.
00:57:40Okay, this is completely unacceptable.
00:57:45Everyone in this city knows that the Mancini's are loaded beyond belief.
00:57:49Come on.
00:57:51You need to milk this situation for all it's worth.
00:57:59Honey, I'm...
00:58:02I'm only thinking about your future and your security.
00:58:06I mean, what happens if they throw you out once the baby arrives?
00:58:10I didn't marry into the Mancini family for their fortune.
00:58:15And you mention their money one more time.
00:58:18You'll never see me again.
00:58:20Understand?
00:58:20I understand, sweetheart.
00:58:23Mom won't say another word about it.
00:58:30$10,000?
00:58:31That's it?
00:58:32That's pocket change for them.
00:58:34Dad, she must be holding down on us.
00:58:38That ungrateful little brat.
00:58:41I tried everything.
00:58:43I couldn't squeeze another penny out of her.
00:58:45She's swimming in Mancini money, and we're here struggling.
00:58:48After what they did to my leg, I should be getting millions!
00:58:52Yes, a few million.
00:58:54It's just the beginning.
00:58:56We've been thinking too small.
00:59:08I have good reason to believe that we have a common enemy.
00:59:11I think we should work together.
00:59:18Miss Mancini has been sleeping well, sir.
00:59:21She got the prenatal vitamins you sent her, and they effectively reduced her morning sickness.
00:59:26And this morning, she ate half a slice of French toast, a half portion of scrambled eggs, two cherry tomatoes,
00:59:33and a glass of milk.
00:59:34And after some gentle persuasion from your mother, she also had a piece of steak for the iron content.
00:59:40Well, it's good to hear that she's eating healthy.
00:59:42And then she finally attended the prenatal concert we arranged, and afterward she spoke with one of the pianists about
00:59:49the compositions.
00:59:50Is it man or woman?
00:59:51Sir, per your instructions, they were all talented women.
00:59:55No exceptions.
00:59:56And she actually mentioned you today.
00:59:59While making hot chocolate, she said to the chef,
01:00:01It's never quite as good as Luca's.
01:00:04She always knows what to say.
01:00:08I'll make her a batch right now, and we can have it delivered.
01:00:11Great.
01:00:11I'll arrange a private courier right away.
01:00:19Luca is almost finished with his business.
01:00:21Hopefully, he will make it home in time for the birth.
01:00:26Mrs. Menchie, it's terrible news.
01:00:29Luca's jet has been destroyed amid a flight.
01:00:30He, he's missing.
01:00:32What?
01:00:33I want every detail immediately.
01:00:35Yes, ma'am.
01:00:38Ava, breathe.
01:00:39Breathe.
01:00:40Don't panic.
01:00:41Don't panic.
01:00:42Luca has always been lucky.
01:00:43He's going to be fine.
01:00:45He will.
01:00:50Hello?
01:00:51I have Luca Mancini.
01:00:53Twenty million dollars cash for his safe return.
01:00:56No police.
01:00:57No family.
01:00:58No security team.
01:01:00You come alone, or he dies.
01:01:02You have 24 hours.
01:01:06Oh.
01:01:08Oh, Ava, are you okay?
01:01:10Hey, who was that?
01:01:11It's nothing, nothing.
01:01:13I, I'm just dizzy.
01:01:15The, the baby.
01:01:17So, I'm going to go upstairs and lie down.
01:01:21Okay.
01:01:22Okay.
01:01:37Money first.
01:01:47Oh, God.
01:01:49Oh, God.
01:01:52Money first.
01:01:56Derek.
01:01:58Where's Luca?
01:02:00Where's Luca?
01:02:01Don't worry about Luca.
01:02:03Worry about yourself.
01:02:05No.
01:02:06No.
01:02:08No.
01:02:11No.
01:02:13No.
01:02:22Yeah, with her as our bargaining chip, we can demand a hundred million dollars from the man-keeps.
01:02:31Easy.
01:02:32Mom, Mom, why are you doing this?
01:02:35Poor family.
01:02:36Why have you always treated me so terribly?
01:02:42Family?
01:02:43Family? You are so pathetic.
01:02:47You just don't get it, do you?
01:02:49You're just some brat that Mom found on the street that she brought home to be our living servant.
01:02:55What are you talking about?
01:02:56You're an orphan!
01:02:58Not even your birth mother wanted you.
01:03:02Yeah, we brought you in.
01:03:04We fed you.
01:03:05We clothed you.
01:03:07And in return, your life belongs to us.
01:03:12Oh, and I?
01:03:13By the way, since we're being honest with each other right now, my whole leg injury, it's kind of my
01:03:19fault.
01:03:20But it was a great excuse to get you to basically give up your life and be our slave all
01:03:26these years.
01:03:30You know what?
01:03:34Even 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
01:03:51wanted to do for a very, very long time.
01:03:56Stop, Derek, you're sick!
01:03:59Shh!
01:04:00Shh!
01:04:02Now let's just keep that pretty little mouth of yours quiet, shall we?
01:04:09Fuck!
01:04:10Fuck!
01:04:12You fucking bitch!
01:04:35You're alive!
01:04:36You're okay.
01:04:40Stop! Stop! Stop!
01:04:46My plane blew up.
01:04:48Ava gets kidnapped.
01:04:49This isn't a coincidence.
01:04:50Who are you looking for?
01:04:52Answer me!
01:04:57Hey, make them stop.
01:04:59He's your brother.
01:05:01They'll kill him.
01:05:02You just told me I'm an orphan.
01:05:03So he's not really my little brother.
01:05:05You better tell me who your accomplices are
01:05:07or he stops breathing.
01:05:09You two should be ashamed of yourselves.
01:05:12Dad, see the way that you look at each other?
01:05:14He's your dead husband's brother.
01:05:17You're a betrayer, Marco, and his mother.
01:05:22Are you all right?
01:05:23Hey, hey, hey. You okay?
01:05:25Yeah, yeah.
01:05:27Your mom has been so kind to me
01:05:29and I dragged her into this mess.
01:05:31It's all my fault.
01:05:34Your mother-in-law took you in.
01:05:36She treated you like a daughter.
01:05:37She gave you everything that you could ever want
01:05:39and this is how you repay her?
01:05:41By falling for her younger son?
01:05:44Have you already forgotten, Marco?
01:05:46It is his grave?
01:05:47What is wrong with you?
01:05:52I want her as my daughter-in-law.
01:05:55First my eldest son's wife
01:05:57and now my youngest.
01:06:01Object to them
01:06:02and you'll lose your tongue.
01:06:15You couldn't have Luca
01:06:17so you decided to try and kill him?
01:06:21Good thing he changed his flight plan
01:06:24at the last minute, hmm?
01:06:26Cross the Mancini's
01:06:28and you ceased to exist.
01:06:30Release me!
01:06:32My father will burn your empire to the ground.
01:06:37Don't you wonder
01:06:38why my son was gone all that time?
01:06:43Your family's power
01:06:45is already gone.
01:07:00You two have risked everything
01:07:03to be together.
01:07:05I can see
01:07:06that Luca's devotion
01:07:08is absolute.
01:07:11You have endured
01:07:13far too much pain.
01:07:15It's time to let him
01:07:17take care of you.
01:07:19But
01:07:20Marco
01:07:21I made a promise to him.
01:07:23And Marco
01:07:25would want your happiness
01:07:27above all else.
01:07:30He will rest easier
01:07:33knowing that we are protecting you
01:07:36and your child.
01:07:41From this moment forward
01:07:42I swear to you
01:07:44nobody will ever
01:07:45hurt you like that.
01:07:50Luca
01:07:50you're bleeding.
01:07:55You gotta keep this clean.
01:07:57Yeah.
01:07:58Infections can get nasty.
01:08:01Okay.
01:08:03So you're saying
01:08:04that you care about me then?
01:08:06Shut up.
01:08:08Of course I care.
01:08:13Alright.
01:08:15Wait.
01:08:16Wait.
01:08:41I think he likes you.
01:08:43Yeah?
01:08:49Ava, I will take care of you, and the baby, just like my brother would have.
01:08:55I brought some fruit for you and the- Luca, she's pregnant, be gentle with her.
01:09:07I think maybe you should get some less.
01:09:14Oh, wait!
01:09:17What is it?
01:09:18I think I'm in labor.
01:09:20Oh my god.
01:09:22Come on.
01:09:22Come on.
01:09:23Come on.
01:09:24Come on.
01:09:29What is taking so long?
01:09:31Is something wrong?
01:09:33She's gone into labor early.
01:09:34Have you two been intimate recently?
01:09:37We didn't exactly.
01:09:39I mean, not completely.
01:09:42I warned you to be careful with her.
01:09:44I'm sorry.
01:09:45What can we do now?
01:09:46The medication isn't working as we'd hoped.
01:09:49There's another approach we could try.
01:09:52Yes, yes.
01:09:53We'll do anything.
01:09:53It's no object.
01:09:54Just help her.
01:09:56Some intimate touches can help her relax and feel better.
01:10:04Right here.
01:10:06Right here.
01:10:07Yes.
01:10:11What- mom!
01:10:13I can't- I can't just whip it out and-
01:10:15Don't do it.
01:10:17Hurry it up.
01:10:19Oh, my God.
01:10:48I hope things are going smoothly in there.
01:10:50They've never been together before.
01:10:54Never been together?
01:10:56Then how could she be?
01:10:58The child is my late son's.
01:11:01Luca's brother.
01:11:05You okay?
01:11:07Doctor, please!
01:11:08Doctor, please!
01:11:16Three, one, two, three, push.
01:11:18One, two, three, push.
01:11:22One, two, three, push.
01:11:23Push, push, push.
01:11:29It's your baby.
01:11:30It's your baby.
01:11:37It's your baby.
01:11:38It's your baby.
01:11:39It's your baby.
01:11:41Hey.

01:11:44Good.
01:11:45Want something to eat?
01:11:47I'm okay.
01:11:48Okay.
01:11:52I thought this hospital was the best that money can buy.
01:11:55I guess I was misinformed.
01:11:58Luca.
01:12:00They're doing the best they can.
01:12:02Let's not terrorize the staff.
01:12:06Look.
01:12:06Okay.
01:12:07I just don't want to see you in any more pain.
01:12:11You would tear me apart.
01:12:19Luca.
01:12:22Remember to control yourself, son.
01:12:25Let her recover first.
01:12:32There you go.
01:12:34Yeah.
