00:00:11Faster, Paris, faster!
00:00:23Where's my rank?
00:00:27Well...
00:00:28The star looks familiar.
00:00:31It's me, you.
00:00:39Handsome?
00:00:40Are you alright?
00:00:43Hello, Handsome.
00:00:52What are you doing in my room?
00:00:53Are you alright?
00:00:55Oh, Handsome.
00:00:57What are you doing in my room?
00:00:59What are you doing in my room?
00:01:10You can cheat like that.
00:01:12It's the point of being faithful.
00:01:15Paris.
00:01:16Paris.
00:01:19You...
00:01:26I'm sorry.
00:01:30You...
00:01:36You...
00:01:38You...
00:01:40Back to you...
00:01:44Home, home, home
00:01:47I just wanna go back home
00:01:53Back to home
00:02:20Professor Mansfield? My criminal law professor? I just hooked up with my professor
00:02:54When I was there, it was the first time I picked up my house
00:02:59I was looking for a lot of็, I was looking for the local people
00:03:14Maybe Professor Mansfield was too drunk to recognize me last night.
00:03:26Morning class.
00:03:27I hope you all had a lovely weekend.
00:03:29I certainly did.
00:03:31Alright, please turn to page 31, I believe chapter 6, and we'll start at the top.
00:03:37Miss Kent, after class, my office.
00:03:43Oh, okay.
00:03:55Did you sleep well last night, Miss Kent?
00:03:59Professor, I can explain last night.
00:04:02You know, I always thought that you were one of the more well-behaved students.
00:04:06One of the best, in fact.
00:04:09But it turns out...
00:04:13You can be a little forgetful.
00:04:32What is it, Miss Kent?
00:04:33That...
00:04:35Makes you credit.
00:04:43Or are you just...
00:04:46In love with me?
00:04:48Your own...
00:04:52Professor.
00:04:52Professor.
00:05:00Don't flatter yourself, Miss Kent.
00:05:03I don't have time for such clumsy, childish games.
00:05:07No.
00:05:08This...
00:05:09This was just...
00:05:10A mistake.
00:05:12It won't happen again.
00:05:13I...
00:05:13I won't...
00:05:15bother you...
00:05:16Anymore.
00:05:24Can you believe it?
00:05:25Harris Morrison's got engaged to Flora Mansfield.
00:05:28She's barely out of college, and she's already married as CEO.
00:05:31Ugh.
00:05:32Rich people.
00:05:33Even their love lives make headlines.
00:05:35That woman in Harris's bedroom was Flora Mansfield.
00:05:40That's Professor Mansfield's sister.
00:05:42God, what have I done?
00:05:47But everything fell apart so fast.
00:05:51Harris Morrison is a monster.
00:05:54Three years ago, his company was on the verge of bankruptcy.
00:05:57But because he was dating you, your father invested in the company to try to keep Morrison's group afloat.
00:06:03But now it...
00:06:05Now!
00:06:06Oh, stop.
00:06:08Harris and I aren't even.
00:06:10But now instead of being grateful, he threw your father in jail today!
00:06:15Remember, he announced his engagement!
00:06:17Thanks!
00:06:25And yet...
00:06:26He's the only part I have left.
00:06:37Please...
00:06:38God...
00:06:45Professor Mansfield?
00:06:49I'm...
00:06:49I'm sorry.
00:06:50Who the hell are you?
00:06:52You never learned to knock or what, you little brat?
00:06:55I'm so sorry, ma'am.
00:06:57I'm a student here.
00:06:58And I have something really important to discuss with Professor Mansfield.
00:07:03Peace.
00:07:04Out.
00:07:09Are you deaf, little brat?
00:07:11Get out.
00:07:12Stop sticking your nose where it doesn't belong.
00:07:16I'm so sorry, Mrs. Thomas.
00:07:20I was actually talking to you.
00:07:22What?
00:07:23Don't forget who butters your bread here.
00:07:26Like, not for my support...
00:07:28Mrs. Thomas.
00:07:29The law school is so grateful for all of your support.
00:07:32A commemorative plaque is already on its way to your home.
00:07:35However, if that support were to vanish for some reason, I'm sure the alumni board and your husband would be
00:07:43fascinated to hear the full story.
00:07:45What did you just say?
00:07:55What did you just say?
00:07:57Thanks for your help, Miss Kent.
00:07:59Thank you for saving me, Miss Kent.
00:08:02So, what can I do for you?
00:08:05I thought I'd be relegated to the lectern.
00:08:08Far, far away from you.
00:08:10I...
00:08:12I came to...
00:08:15Professor, I need a lawyer for my father.
00:08:17Harris Morrison is framing him for false financial crimes and I...
00:08:21I'm a professor now, not a lawyer.
00:08:24I don't do courtrooms anymore.
00:08:26Because of Harris?
00:08:28You won't take on this case because of his engagement to your sister.
00:08:31Do you think that he controls my decisions?
00:08:36Your situation is unfortunate, Miss Kent.
00:08:40But my reasons for leaving the bar are my own.
00:08:44Now, I suggest you look at other defense lawyers in Los Angeles.
00:08:49The great James Mansfield, the man who never lost a single case, won't stand up to Harris.
00:08:56No one else will dare.
00:08:57He's my only hope.
00:09:00Professor...
00:09:01Wait.
00:09:03D Kendra!
00:09:04D Kendra!
00:09:07Let's do D Kendra!
00:09:21Professor?
00:09:23Don't stop now.
00:09:27Professor?
00:09:29Don't stop now.
00:09:32KF4
00:09:48Professor
00:09:51I'm sorry, I can't
00:10:02Don't sell yourself for pity, Miss Kent
00:10:05You don't know the price of that kind of regret
00:10:10Professor, my father's case
00:10:12I'm late for a lecture
00:10:15Good luck, Miss Kent
00:10:23And Miss Kent, taking your clothes off is the easy part
00:10:28Putting everything back on, it's much more difficult
00:10:40You skipped our civil procedures class today
00:10:43Professor Winston was wondering where you were
00:10:44Don't even bring it up, Nora
00:10:46I've gone to every major law firm in LA
00:10:49And no one will take my father's case
00:10:50What about Professor Mansfield?
00:10:53I mean didn't you say you guys were like
00:10:54I thought he liked me enough to help me
00:10:58But
00:10:59He said
00:11:00He's just a teacher now
00:11:03So he doesn't take on cases anymore
00:11:07I guess I was just a dumb girl to him
00:11:09Okay, don't give up
00:11:11My uncle knows Mansfield
00:11:13He golfs every weekend at the Oak Quarry
00:11:15We're gonna go this weekend
00:11:16Really?
00:11:17Yep
00:11:20No more waiting
00:11:22Nothing matters more than freeing my dad
00:11:32Professor Mansfield is about to be here
00:11:34Okay, remember to keep it together, Claire
00:11:36And don't choke
00:11:38Okay?
00:11:41Claire Kent
00:11:43Slumminy here
00:11:43Walk away Harris
00:11:45That's true
00:11:46Didn't get enough last time or
00:11:48Are you still hoping to let you taste more?
00:11:51Ugh
00:11:52Save it Morrison
00:11:53Honestly I don't know why you keep up with the act
00:11:55And I'm honestly surprised that they let you through the gate
00:11:59What did you just...
00:12:00Is there a problem?
00:12:06Mr. Morrison?
00:12:07No
00:12:10Professor Mansfield
00:12:11I'm Nora Greenwood by the way
00:12:13I don't know if you remember me
00:12:14But I took your civil law seminar last semester
00:12:18This is my friend
00:12:19This is my friend
00:12:19Ms. Kent
00:12:19As I remember
00:12:21You got an A in my class last year
00:12:24A plus?
00:12:27That's right
00:12:29You golf?
00:12:30I could show you if you trust me
00:12:34Now's my chance
00:12:36I'd love to
00:12:37James
00:12:38Weren't we just...
00:12:39You know
00:12:39Wait, wait, wait
00:12:40You're not even close to being married to my sister yet
00:12:43Until then
00:12:43It's Professor
00:12:45Right
00:12:46Professor Mansfield
00:12:47Got it
00:12:53You two seem to know each other
00:12:58Now
00:12:58Now I don't know her
00:13:00This is
00:13:01The first time Ms. Kent and I have met
00:13:05That's good
00:13:06That's real good
00:13:07Because
00:13:08Flora is my only sister
00:13:10And if I were to find out
00:13:11That you were in a relationship
00:13:12With another woman
00:13:13While engaged to her
00:13:14Well
00:13:15You know how much that would cost you
00:13:18Ms. Kent?
00:13:20Shall we?
00:13:26Professor
00:13:27You know Harris isn't loyal to your sister
00:13:29So why still let them get married?
00:13:31You see
00:13:32Flora is mentally weak
00:13:38Right now
00:13:39She loves Harris entirely
00:13:42If I were to start making decisions for her
00:13:45That would only backfire her
00:13:49Come here
00:13:50Take this
00:13:53Let me show you
00:13:54I guess we can answer
00:13:56So you always want
00:13:59The head of the club
00:14:00To aim in the direction you want the ball to go
00:14:03Relax your shoulders
00:14:05And a nice loose grip
00:14:09Are you ready?
00:14:12Sorry
00:14:14I've never golfed before
00:14:15I'm just
00:14:16A little nervous
00:14:20Is it golf that makes you nervous?
00:14:22Or something else?
00:14:31Professor Mansfield treats Claire better than you ever did
00:14:47Very impressive
00:14:49You have some natural talent
00:14:52After school is out
00:14:54You should keep practicing
00:14:56I
00:14:58Really like teaching you
00:15:00Stop teasing me Professor
00:15:02We both know I am really here
00:15:05Let me guess
00:15:06Your father's case again
00:15:08I was talking about you
00:15:12You don't really know me Professor
00:15:15I'm not the perfect student you thought I was
00:15:20I get distracted
00:15:22I have
00:15:24Extracurricular interests
00:15:30I'll be waiting for you in the dressing room
00:15:41Come on Claire
00:15:43It's for dad
00:15:48So that's why you were all over and I spoke to them
00:15:51Well
00:15:52You're trying to seduce himself
00:15:54He'll work on your father's case, huh?
00:15:57Ah, shit
00:15:58Claire
00:15:59Why are you seriously that pathetic?
00:16:03My fiance's brother
00:16:05You were killed Professor
00:16:07Yeah
00:16:08I am that pathetic
00:16:09Anyone but you nurse
00:16:11Is that what you wanna hear?
00:16:12You
00:16:12Bitch!
00:16:15You
00:16:15Bitch!
00:16:17Just get away
00:16:19From me
00:16:20We're done, Harris
00:16:21We're done
00:16:22We're not done
00:16:23You go throwing yourself a manfield
00:16:26Done
00:16:27He's my future brother-in-law
00:16:30Create your body to save daddy, huh?
00:16:33You're sick
00:16:34You still have him
00:16:36But you
00:16:36You lied to me
00:16:37You betrayed me
00:16:39And you ruined my father
00:16:41Yeah
00:16:45Four years, Claire
00:16:47Four years, Claire
00:16:48Do you know what you are like in Ben?
00:16:50A bad fish
00:16:51Lifeless, cold, pathetic.
00:16:55Do you think Mansfield wants that, huh?
00:16:59I could toss you and use bad, but you'd find nothing.
00:17:02No bones, no passion.
00:17:05We're just a lifeless corpse.
00:17:09Stop it!
00:17:10I'll show you how to please a man.
00:17:12No, let go of me!
00:17:28You touch her again, you'll be wishing I had killed you instead.
00:17:35Your mistake can bless her.
00:17:38Get out.
00:17:42Honey.
00:17:44I'm so sorry, Professor, that you had to see that.
00:17:46It's not your fault.
00:17:53Professor.
00:17:54You're safe now.
00:17:56Right?
00:18:03Come on.
00:18:04Let's get you out of here.
00:18:19Do you know Harris?
00:18:22No.
00:18:23How long have you known him?
00:18:26Have you two slept together?
00:18:28How many times?
00:18:30Professor.
00:18:31Actually it's a gonger time.
00:18:33Awkward.
00:18:33No.classh
00:18:39in the house, Malika.
00:18:39I don't
00:18:40wanna talk. Bob I don't
00:18:45wanna know it. In the film,
00:18:52I got back my hand in, I got up my
00:18:56hands to Matt realize and this is a
00:18:58proper job teacher. She's no 10
00:19:00year old..... Although I'm not
00:19:16Tell me I've stopped.
00:19:18I'm sorry, Jane.
00:19:26This isn't what I want from you.
00:19:28I need a search.
00:19:32You're overthinking it.
00:19:44Professor, I need you to feel this.
00:19:53I'm done with class tomorrow.
00:19:56I'm 10.
00:19:58You need me in a lecture around.
00:20:09Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:20:11Careful, careful.
00:20:12Are you okay?
00:20:13One second.
00:20:21Hello, EMS.
00:20:24There's a woman who fainted.
00:20:26Morrison?
00:20:26We're at...
00:20:29I guess Morrison again.
00:20:41Good morning, Mom.
00:20:43What?
00:20:44Whoa, slow down.
00:20:46You're in the hospital?
00:20:47Why?
00:20:47What happened?
00:20:49Okay.
00:20:50Yeah, I'm on my way.
00:20:56Mom.
00:20:57Hey.
00:20:58Are you all right?
00:20:59I'm fine.
00:21:00A nice girl brought me in and stayed with me the whole time.
00:21:03I owe her a big thank you.
00:21:05Yeah, of course.
00:21:07I promise I'll make sure I find out who it was and I'll thank her for you.
00:21:11Okay.
00:21:25I'm sorry I missed our meeting, Professor.
00:21:27I guess running into your mother was some weird coincidence.
00:21:31I didn't have any other.
00:21:33Give me your hand.
00:21:34Are you...
00:21:41Take this.
00:21:42What is this?
00:21:44It's my friend's law firm.
00:21:46He usually only does high profile political cases so his number is in public.
00:21:50Tell him you're my friend.
00:21:51I'll take your case.
00:21:54And Claire, thank you for helping my mother.
00:21:58Oh.
00:22:00Give him a call.
00:22:03Okay.
00:22:15I'll be honest with you, Miss Kent.
00:22:18Best case scenario here is I can maybe get your father's sentence reduced to ten years.
00:22:25What?
00:22:25But...
00:22:26But he's innocent.
00:22:28Unfortunately, innocent doesn't really matter if we can't prove it.
00:22:34You see, the evidence we would need to clear his name, it's just buried a little too deep for someone
00:22:43like me to get to.
00:22:45What you need, Miss Kent, is you need a bigger shovel.
00:22:51In fact, you need James Mansfield.
00:22:58In this world, in the legal world, in that name, it doesn't just open doors.
00:23:05It kicks me down.
00:23:07Yeah, but...
00:23:08It's complicated.
00:23:11We...
00:23:11Yeah, what the hell?
00:23:12Where'd you put my credit card?
00:23:17Timmy?
00:23:23Yeah, your ex-boyfriend sounds like a real asshole.
00:23:27Want me to beat him up for you?
00:23:28Please don't.
00:23:30The trial's starting soon.
00:23:32We can't risk any conflict.
00:23:34Any trouble now could ruin us.
00:23:37Look at him.
00:23:38Smug prick.
00:23:44Timmy!
00:23:49Hi.
00:23:50Flora.
00:23:52What a surprise.
00:23:54I'm getting married soon.
00:23:56You have to buy me a big nice wedding gift.
00:23:58You're getting married to him.
00:24:01I'm sure you're gonna regret that.
00:24:04By the way, have you met my girlfriend?
00:24:08Claire Kent?
00:24:09What?
00:24:12Uh...
00:24:15Uh...
00:24:15I...
00:24:16What's wrong, Harris?
00:24:19Uh, nothing.
00:24:19I just, uh...
00:24:21I...
00:24:21I need to use the restroom real quick.
00:24:23Mm-hmm.
00:24:35Mr. Samson.
00:24:36Are you...
00:24:37Trying to represent Claire?
00:24:39Is that a problem?
00:24:40Is that a problem?
00:24:40Don't think I'm gonna go easy on you just because you're Flora's friend.
00:24:46Try me.
00:24:50Uh...
00:24:53Uh...
00:24:55Uh...
00:24:56Uh...
00:24:58Uh...
00:24:59Stop!
00:25:00Get out of the way!
00:25:09It's good to see you again, Miss Kent
00:25:15Mr. Morrison, you're much more reckless than I thought
00:25:18James, what are you
00:25:20Keep your fiance in check
00:25:33Were they fighting because of you?
00:25:40Do you still have feelings for Morrison?
00:25:45How could I have feelings for the man who put my father in prison?
00:25:49So you were with Timothy Sampson because of his father
00:26:01Claire, if I agreed to defend your father
00:26:10Would you give yourself to me?
00:26:15Professor, I know you love your sister
00:26:18I won't be the reason you jeopardize her happiness
00:26:22No matter how much I want to save my father
00:26:28I can't ask you to carry that burden
00:26:32I'll find another way
00:26:35Even if it costs me
00:26:38Goodbye, James
00:26:48She called me James
00:26:50She called me James
00:27:23You can't just do whatever you want to me anymore
00:27:25Fuck!
00:27:25Fuck!
00:27:27Your father is rising in jail
00:27:29And you still haven't learned what happens when you
00:27:31Messed me up!
00:27:33I believe you would have saved my father
00:27:37Touch me one more time
00:27:39Your wedding with Laura is over
00:27:45Fuck!
00:27:53It's late!
00:27:56Mr. Masfield!
00:27:58What are you doing?
00:28:00At Ms. Kent's house
00:28:03Looking for a girlfriend?
00:28:05No, sir, I was just discussing her father's case
00:28:09Where are you at?
00:28:17I...
00:28:18I...
00:28:19I...
00:28:19I want to resolve this piece for her
00:28:21Do you?
00:28:23I hope so
00:28:24You know, Flora is my only sister
00:28:27And Ms. Kent
00:28:29Well, she's a very highly respected student of mine
00:28:32If anything were to happen to either of them
00:28:37Well
00:28:39You know what happens next
00:28:42Goodnight
00:28:47Claire, wake up! Someone's broken into our house!
00:28:50What?
00:28:55Who are you?
00:28:56I'm calling the police
00:29:01A police?
00:29:03Honey
00:29:04Your dad has racked up massive debts over the years
00:29:07We're here to legally seize all of his property
00:29:10Keep it moving!
00:29:13Hey
00:29:13Stop!
00:29:15Put that down!
00:29:17Claire
00:29:18Don't
00:29:20Don't hurt you
00:29:24They've frozen my accounts
00:29:26All of them
00:29:27This is Morrison
00:29:28He's cutting us off from everything
00:29:34He can take the house
00:29:35He can freeze the money
00:29:36But he won't break me
00:29:38I'll scrub toilets
00:29:41I'll wait tables
00:29:41I don't care
00:29:43That bastard won't win
00:29:48Hey!
00:29:49You okay?
00:29:51Yeah, just tired
00:29:52Oh!
00:29:59Oh!
00:30:03Sorry!
00:30:11You missed my glass yesterday
00:30:15Uh-uh
00:30:16If I tell him about my financial troubles, I'll just drag him into this mess
00:30:22Sorry, I have to go, Professor
00:30:24How about I give you a ride home
00:30:26How about I give you a ride home?
00:30:32I asked him to drop me here so he wouldn't know the house was taken
00:30:36I am
00:30:37This can't come in forever
00:30:50This can't come in forever
00:30:51You're sure she's Flora Mansfield?
00:30:54I saw her get out of James Mansfield's car myself
00:30:58Cut the bullshit and call her fiancรฉ
00:31:00They think of Flora Mansfield?
00:31:14Clare's been kidnapped
00:31:18What's wrong, honey?
00:31:20Nothing, just, uh, text
00:31:23Text editor stuff
00:31:30That's not my fiancรฉ
00:31:32I don't even know who that woman is
00:31:39What?
00:31:41She's not Flora
00:31:43Well, she's hot either way
00:31:49We shouldn't let this opportunity go waste
00:31:52To offer a little fun, bruh
00:32:00Hey!
00:32:09You're on a real unlucky streak, Miss Kent
00:32:30No!
00:32:31Oh my God, no!
00:32:34No!
00:32:35Auto savages
00:32:37and how your way Whew!
00:32:40Oh my God!
00:32:47New heaven!
00:32:56James, what are you doing here?
00:32:59Just far have you gone with Mansfield?
00:33:02Why are you saying his name in your sleep?
00:33:06Call him.
00:33:11Professor, funny seeing you again, Harris.
00:33:14Professor, I was dropping off supplements for flora.
00:33:19And I happened to pass by Miss Kent's room and I thought I'd say hi.
00:33:28Miss Kent, your hospital bills came up to $5,000.
00:33:33How do you plan to pay that?
00:33:54Do you think a kiss is worth $5,000?
00:34:01Do you like me, Professor?
00:34:20If you'd like, my body can belong to you now.
00:34:25Do you think it's worth $5,000?
00:34:56Get out.
00:34:57Now.
00:34:59Don't even look at her.
00:35:03I'll make you regret it.
00:35:26Miss Kent, is this how you handle all your problems?
00:35:31No. Only for you.
00:35:40If you want, I'll take on his case as the defense attorney.
00:35:46Really?
00:35:47Why is he suddenly offering to help me?
00:35:50Isn't this what you wanted, Claire?
00:35:51Maybe he's only doing this so that I'll sleep with him.
00:35:55I wouldn't be surprised.
00:35:57Tomorrow I leave for Austin.
00:35:59And when I get back, I'll start on your father's case.
00:36:17Claire.
00:36:18No.
00:36:29Claire.
00:36:31You don't have to do this.
00:36:36Just get some rest, okay?
00:36:39I'll see you in court.
00:36:55Good afternoon, Mr. Simpson. I was just about to call you. I...
00:37:00What?
00:37:02I...
00:37:02My father's sick. I'll... I'll be right there.
00:37:07Thank you for coming. I'm sorry. The news from the hospital is not good.
00:37:12They found a brain tumor.
00:37:14Listen.
00:37:15The doctors...
00:37:17They... they said it's a ticking time bomb.
00:37:20And it could rupture at any moment, so he needs an operation now.
00:37:24The only problem is...
00:37:25You know how I am. I understand.
00:37:28I'll find the money, Mr. Simpson.
00:37:30Okay.
00:37:30I'm sorry.
00:37:34I'm sorry.
00:37:36He's already agreed to defend Dad.
00:37:38I... I can't ask him for anything else.
00:37:41I'm sorry.
00:37:47I'm sorry.
00:37:48I'm sorry.
00:37:49I'm sorry.
00:37:51I heard about your father.
00:37:53I can help fix this.
00:37:55Why would I trust you, Harris?
00:37:59Just...
00:37:59Have dinner with me, and...
00:38:01We can talk.
00:38:03Nothing else.
00:38:04Nothing more.
00:38:05And if you say yes, I'll wire a full surgery across to the hospital immediately.
00:38:11Hmm?
00:38:13Hmm?
00:38:19Fine.
00:38:36Fine.
00:38:52Do you like the dress I custom made for you?
00:38:55Harris, you promised we were just having dinner.
00:38:57Right.
00:38:59Just dinner.
00:39:00But, uh...
00:39:03Isn't it normal for me to have sex with my girlfriend?
00:39:07Come on.
00:39:08Shh.
00:39:29Hey!
00:39:30Where are you?
00:39:31Why aren't you raising my calls?
00:39:33Huh?
00:39:34I didn't get any calls from you.
00:39:36Flora, what is going on?
00:39:39Didn't you hear about Claire's dad?
00:39:41He's really sick and needs surgery.
00:39:43Claire's been scrambling to find the money.
00:39:46She never told me he was ill.
00:39:48Come on, James.
00:39:49Who would tell the professor something like that?
00:39:52I'm so bored.
00:39:54Tara said he's working late tonight and won't be coming home.
00:40:06No!
00:40:08No!
00:40:09I've waited for this for so long, baby.
00:40:12You're all mine now.
00:40:14No!
00:40:23Fuck!
00:40:26What is it?
00:40:28What? Get our financial advisor!
00:40:30Yeah, now!
00:40:35I'm gonna go back to the office.
00:40:39Don't leave.
00:40:40I'll cancel your final surgery if you think about leaving.
00:40:43Yeah?
00:41:01No!
00:41:10I'm gonna get over!
00:41:11You're here, ma'am!
00:41:12No!
00:41:13No!
00:41:15No!
00:41:17No!
00:41:35Come in.
00:41:54I'm sorry, Professor.
00:41:56There wasn't anything else that fit.
00:42:05Come here, Claire.
00:42:16Professor.
00:42:17Professor.
00:42:20I went ahead and paid for your father's hospital bill.
00:42:24You're not going to see Harris again.
00:42:47Claire, are you there? Where did you go?
00:42:55Claire, you were the one who tempted me.
00:43:00Do you understand?
00:43:01Yes, Professor.
00:43:03You're not going to see anyone else.
00:43:06Do you understand that?
00:43:08Yes, Professor.
00:43:09And you are never going to see Harris again.
00:43:14Yes, Professor.
00:43:16Professor.
00:43:17Professor.
00:43:19Professor.
00:43:47I'm not going to see you.
00:43:59Very good.
00:44:11You really have no sense of loyalty, dude.
00:44:14You can't even keep a single promise to me.
00:44:17Don't push me any further.
00:44:19If Flora finds out what you did, you two are over.
00:44:22Do you really think having Mansfield as your attorney will make this trial easy?
00:44:27Well, let me tell you something.
00:44:29Mansfield won't be showing up today.
00:44:32What did Harris do this time?
00:45:11What did Harris do?
00:45:16Can I do something to Flora?
00:45:17Give up, Claire. Mansfield isn't coming.
00:45:21And once this trial is over, you'll be mine forever.
00:45:30Don't worry, Mr. Morrison. I'll do exactly what you want.
00:45:34I trust you.
00:45:42If this works out, you'll be the new lady of the house.
00:45:55Get out of here.
00:45:58Let's go!
00:46:02Get out of here.
00:46:07What?
00:46:19In the absence of a defense, this court finds no reason to challenge the charge.
00:46:26The verdict stands.
00:46:28Chris Kent is sentenced to life in prison.
00:46:33This court is adjourned.
00:46:35Objection!
00:46:41Apologies for my tardiness, Your Honor.
00:46:44James Mansfield, representing the defendant.
00:46:48I have key evidence.
00:46:52The prosecution's case rests entirely on these transfer files.
00:46:57They claim to my client embezzled funds.
00:46:59But on none of these files will you find his signature.
00:47:03What you will find is a pseudonym, Woody Lincoln.
00:47:06Mr. Morrison, perhaps you can enlighten the court.
00:47:09Can you think of anyone who would use that alias?
00:47:13Your Honor, this is a tactic.
00:47:15I request a recess to prepare.
00:47:17Granted.
00:47:18Defense counsel, your late arrival has disrupted our court proceedings.
00:47:24Now, you'll get to present this evidence properly after we return.
00:47:32This court is adjourned.
00:47:44Professor, thank you for coming today.
00:47:47I need a high-five.
00:47:52Sorry, I was late.
00:47:53Flora had an accident.
00:47:55She fell down the stairs.
00:47:56But she's going to be fine.
00:47:58I went ahead and arranged for your father to be admitted to a private hospital that my family owns.
00:48:04I hope that's okay.
00:48:06Do you want to go see him?
00:48:09Come on.
00:48:24You'll regret this, Claire.
00:48:31Dad.
00:48:32Hey, kiddo.
00:48:33You and your mom doing okay?
00:48:35We're fine.
00:48:36Don't worry about us.
00:48:42This is...
00:48:44Professor Mansfield.
00:48:45I know.
00:48:46He's been a huge help here these past few days.
00:48:50He says he's handling my legal affairs because you are his most promising student.
00:48:57Student.
00:48:59I'll leave you two alone.
00:49:02I'll see you in class, Miss Kent.
00:49:04Thank you, James.
00:49:12Does James only see me as a student?
00:49:18Just sit down for this.
00:49:28Do you really think James Mansfield would be in love with you?
00:49:33Oh, you didn't know about Joan Stewart, did you?
00:49:37This great, tragic love story.
00:49:40They were forced to break up, but kept in touch over the years.
00:49:44Guess what?
00:49:45She flies back to LA tomorrow.
00:49:47Huh?
00:49:51Do you really think a little student fling stand a chance against what?
00:49:59Is this great love of his life?
00:50:04What does this have to do with you?
00:50:06Everything.
00:50:07If you'll come back to me, the entire Mansfield fortune will be ours.
00:50:12Don't you understand that Flora's life is in my hands, love?
00:50:15Wait.
00:50:17It was you who hurt Flora?
00:50:21I love you, Claire.
00:50:23I will never mistreat you.
00:50:25So, as long as...
00:50:33I don't need love from someone despicable like you.
00:50:44And tomorrow, we will discuss Freud and why he did enough cocaine to kill a small horse.
00:50:49Have a good day, everyone.
00:51:00Professor, we shouldn't do this anymore.
00:51:03What?
00:51:06Tell me why.
00:51:10You should be with Joan Stewart.
00:51:12I know she's who you really love.
00:51:15Just a student.
00:51:36Claire, Joan is the past.
00:51:41She's marrying someone else.
00:51:44And you...
00:51:48You're not just my student.
00:51:50You're the only one I see in the room.
00:51:55Always.

01:16:11so
01:16:20I don't know.
01:16:42Professor, what are you?
01:16:46I could smell alcohol on him.
01:16:48Is he drunk?
01:16:57Claire?
01:16:58Who is it?
01:17:00No one.
01:17:01Mom, I must have...
01:17:14You will never know how much I want you.
01:17:17If I keep holding back my arches...
01:17:21Let's go to my room.
01:17:22I don't want my mom and Nora to see.
01:17:24Okay.
01:17:25Let's go.
01:17:25I don't know.
01:18:04You know, on that first day, in the lecture hall, when I saw you, I thought to myself, she belongs
01:18:14to me.
01:18:18I wanted to lock you up, so no one else had ever seen you, keep you out of myself, I'm
01:18:24perfect, I'm a student, I wanted you to be mine, on your mind.
01:19:01No, I'm not gonna be gentle, and you, you're gonna be quiet, okay?
01:19:39Claire?
01:19:43You really want to hire a public defense attorney, if you want, I could call my dad.
01:19:47No, no, Timmy, I trust the law, my father is innocent, and he deserves to be set free.
01:20:33You see, Claire is a kind of a woman that exploits you, and then throws you away.
01:20:39A woman like that needs to be taught a lesson, you know, in a good way, for her own good.
01:20:45Don't you agree?
01:20:46Maybe you're right.
01:20:47A simple disappearing.
01:20:49You are no show of the trial.
01:20:51Her father gets put away, I secure my future with the Mansfield family, and you cut your losses before Claire
01:20:58ruins you completely.
01:20:59It's a clean slate for everyone who matters, and who cares if Camt is innocent or not.
01:21:07Why is your doing business?
01:21:10I urge the court to deliver a verdict that will hold the defendant fully accountable.
01:21:16Thank you, counselor.
01:21:18Does the defense have any final evidence or objections?
01:21:24No, your honor.
01:21:25The defense rests.
01:21:27This is really bad.
01:21:29My lawyer doesn't have any key evidence.
01:21:32Your time's up, Claire.
01:21:34James isn't going to help you now.
01:21:40Very well.
01:21:42The jury will now begin deliberations.
01:21:45Apologies for my tardiness, your honor.
01:21:53Mansfield?
01:21:54Mr. Morrison.
01:21:56Nice suit.
01:21:59I have two pieces of crucial evidence.
01:22:04First, an affidavit here.
01:22:07Confirming Woody Lincoln is the alias used by Mr. Harris Morrison for his offshore accounts.
01:22:15Second, and I want everyone to hear this,
01:22:18a simple disappearing act.
01:22:20You are no show of the trial.
01:22:22Her father gets put away, I secure my future with the Mansfield family,
01:22:25and you cut your losses before Claire ruins you completely.
01:22:30It's a clean slate for everyone who matters.
01:22:32And who cares if Kent is innocent or not?
01:22:44No.
01:22:45It's taken out of context.
01:22:47It's a fabrication.
01:22:48Fabrication?
01:22:50And I suppose your maid's confession is also a fabrication.
01:22:54The one she just told the police where you paid her to push your own wife down a flight of
01:23:00stairs.
01:23:01It's true.
01:23:02He tried to kill me.
01:23:06Mr. Morrison, you once told me that certain people need to be dealt with.
01:23:10You were right.
01:23:12Justice isn't for sale.
01:23:15How about you defend your client, your dead client?
01:23:24Thank you, your honor.
01:23:32You know, I do have another piece of evidence.
01:23:46This ring proves how much I truly love you.
01:23:50Thank you, sir.
