Short filmTranscript
00:06Three years I've loved him, tonight I'll give him all of me.
00:10My heart, my body, my future, we'll make a beautiful baby together.
00:56Three years of my life that I've wasted on.
01:01Oh my god, I'm such an idiot, I actually thought about having a baby with you.
01:06A baby?
01:09You didn't quit out for three years, and now you want to talk about playing mommy?
01:15If you are ready to finally spread those legs, you could probably learn a thing to do from these lovely
01:20ladies.
01:36I don't need a man to have my dreams come true.
01:40One sperm donor, one appointment, and I'll have my own baby.
01:52Sir, six months to produce an error, I lose control of Crawford Industries.
01:57To my sister and her little monster.
02:00Sir, the surrogate candidates are fully vetted.
02:04All Ivy League graduates, and...
02:06I don't need their resumes, Thompson.
02:08Find me someone who knows their place.
02:10And they'll disappear after delivery.
02:23Oh my god.
02:24No, no, no, no, no.
02:25I think I got almost all of them.
02:28Are you here for the interview?
02:29Yes, I am.
02:30Alright, let's get started.
02:34I'm going to need a complete medical history, including any family genetic disorders.
02:39Do you exercise regularly?
02:41You look susceptible.
02:45Do you have any idea who I am?
02:47I'm just trying to be thorough.
02:49We're talking about a baby coming into this world.
02:52God, why are all attractive men so self-involved?
02:57I don't care if you're Brad Pitt.
02:58I still need to know your reproductive history and all of your sexual partners in the last
03:02next month.
03:03Sir, I am so sorry.
03:05I can ask her to leave.
03:06Thompson, leave us.
03:10Why'd you ask him to leave?
03:12Chatsworth MBA.
03:13Top of class.
03:14No family history of genetic disorders.
03:16I work out five times a week.
03:18As for intimate matters, I assure you performance is not an issue.
03:23Are you willing to share yours?
03:24Of course, yeah.
03:28I am perfectly healthy as well.
03:30No genetic issues.
03:32I go to regular checkups.
03:33I even started taking prenatal vitamins.
03:36You know, I think that you're the perfect match.
03:40Great.
03:41Now concerning compensation, what figure did you have in mind?
03:45I was thinking 800.
03:47I was expecting the fee to be significantly higher.
03:49I know it's not very much, but I figured because of the quality, I could help out with other
03:55things like paperwork or something.
03:58Thompson, bring in the contracts.
04:02Take your time reviewing.
04:03One key point.
04:05After the birth, the child stays with me.
04:08You want to keep my baby?
04:13You want to keep my baby?
04:15Are you insane?
04:17Is this some kind of sick joke?
04:19That's standard procedure for surrogacy agreements.
04:22Surrogacy?
04:22What surrogacy?
04:23The position you're interviewing for.
04:25Interview?
04:26I came here to buy sperm.
04:28You came here to what?
04:30Oh my God.
04:33I thought you were a donor.
04:35That's why I was asking all of those questions about your qualifications.
04:39I'm so sorry for all the misunderstandings.
04:42I should probably go.
04:44Wait.
04:46A million dollars.
04:48Preparing my child.
04:50I want my own baby, Mr. Crawford.
04:53Not someone else's.
04:56Next.
05:01Hello?
05:02Ms. Reed, your father.
05:04You need to come now.
05:05I will be right there.
05:12Doctor, my father, how is he?
05:15Well, the cancer has spread aggressively.
05:18Without immediate treatment.
05:19And no, then treat him.
05:20Do whatever it takes, please.
05:22Okay, but the full course of treatment could cost as much as a million dollars.
05:27One million dollars.
05:31Okay, I could take out a loan or...
05:43Is this the last batch?
05:45Uh, yes, sir.
05:46All of them want the Crawford name.
05:48None of them are qualified.
05:50She was refreshing.
05:53No pretense.
05:55No schemes.
05:56Uh, sir, she was not here for the surrogacy.
05:59Ugh.
06:00Sometimes the best candidate isn't looking for the job, Thompson.
06:11Hello?
06:13Hello?
06:15I've been thinking.
06:19I'd like to propose a modification to the original terms.
06:22What kind of modification?
06:23Joint custody.
06:25You wouldn't just be carrying the child, you'd be its mother.
06:29Why would you agree to do that?
06:31You're direct.
06:32Honest.
06:33No hidden agendas.
06:35Qualities I want in my child's mother.
06:37So you're saying that I could really be a part of the baby's life?
06:40Yes.
06:41But understand this clearly.
06:43We'd be parents.
06:45Nothing more.
06:46No emotional entanglements.
06:49No romantic expectations.
06:50Oh, please.
06:52Don't flatter yourself.
06:54God, rich people and their egos.
06:59Father.
07:00The board is getting impatient.
07:02I have my own plans.
07:04Adrian, if you're thinking of using some random surrogate to produce an heir, forget it.
07:09I've already found my fiancé.
07:11Your what?
07:13We'll discuss this at dinner.
07:18Um, did you just promote me from surrogate to fiancé?
07:25Correct me if I'm wrong, but you just finished saying something about nothing more than parents.
07:31Certain situations require adaptation.
07:34Is that CEO speak for I changed my mind?
07:37We need a convincing story.
07:39You'll stay at my house during the pregnancy.
07:42And what about after the baby's born?
07:45We'll arrange for an amicable separation.
07:48Continue co-parenting.
08:03Welcome to the family, Miss Reed.
08:24I think my entire apartment could fit inside this entry away.
08:29Well, well.
08:32You missed me so much you tracked me down.
08:37Missed me so much you tracked me down.
08:39You followed me here like a lost puppy.
08:42Followed?
08:43What are you doing here?
08:46Sweetheart, this is my family's house.
08:49I'm sure you know that.
08:52You never let me have sex with you.
08:54I'll look at you now, sneaking into my house.
08:57Finally realize what you missed.
08:58Get your hands off me!
09:00Playing hard to get was cute before, but now, we both know what you're giving.
09:09Uncle, what?
09:10What's your filthy hands off my fiancé?
09:13What's your fiancé?
09:15Uncle?
09:17Uncle?
09:19No, no, no, no.
09:20She cannot be your fiancé.
09:21She's just a...
09:22What's your mouth?
09:22What's your future aunt you're talking about?
09:25This?
09:25This is crazy.
09:27I mean, you can't be serious.
09:29You know what's going on.
09:30I won't repeat myself.
09:31Stay away from my fiancé.
09:32One more word and you can kiss your trust phone.
09:34Goodbye.
09:44Are you all right?
09:48Yeah.
09:49I'm fine.
09:51So, Ethan is your nephew.
09:55And he's your...
09:57Um, he was my boyfriend.
09:59He was my ex-boyfriend.
10:00Ex.
10:01Very ex.
10:03I see you.
10:05Well, Thompson will be up shortly with your bags.
10:09So, which bedroom am I going to be staying in?
10:14Here.
10:15What?
10:36That's the line.
10:37Don't cross it.
10:38Heather.
10:39Of course.
10:40Good.
10:40Good.
10:41Good.
10:42Good.
10:42Good.
10:57See, my brilliant plan worked.
11:03Wait, how did this happen?
11:07Oh, uh, sir, are you okay?
11:10Fine, continue.
11:22Stay on your side.
11:33Lila, wake up.
11:40Lila, please.
11:55Oh, sorry, dear.
11:56Didn't see you there.
11:58Hard to notice the hell.
12:06If it isn't my brother's mysterious fiancée.
12:09Mrs. Crawford.
12:11No, call me Catherine.
12:13We are family, apparently.
12:16Tell me again, how did you and Adrienne meet?
12:18We met through mutual friends.
12:21Mutual friends?
12:22Oh, honey, what friend of Adrienne's could possibly run in your social circles?
12:28Unless this was more of a business arrangement.
12:32I'm sorry?
12:33A girl in your position.
12:35Surely there was some negotiation involved.
12:38The only negotiation was whether I would keep my last name or take his.
12:42Next weekend is our family dinner.
12:45As Adrienne's fiancée, your presence is required.
12:48Yeah, I'd be honored.
12:50Perfect.
12:51I'm sure you'll find something more appropriate to wear.
13:04Hi, Daddy.
13:06How are you feeling?
13:08Well, you know, I've had better days.
13:11How's my baby doing?
13:13What are you working on there?
13:15Um, it's a dress.
13:17Yes, I have to go to this fancy dinner for my new job, and I needed to make one.
13:22Huh, let me see.
13:24And, it's finished.
13:26Wow, but that, that's just beautiful.
13:31Oh, wow.
13:32Just a little, meds are making me a little woozy.
13:35I think I better get some rest.
13:36Of course.
13:37Okay.
13:38I will let you sleep.
13:40Yeah.
13:41I love you.
13:42I love you.
13:53I love you so much, Daddy.
13:55I'll be strong for you, Daddy.
13:57I promise.
13:58Mila, what happened?
14:02What should I do?
14:06How was my happy couple today?
14:10All right, then.
14:12Let's see.
14:13Just a small pinch.
14:14That's not small.
14:16That's not small at all.
14:17Remember, million dollars.
14:24Okay.
14:28Okay.
14:30Okay.
14:42This is a simple medical procedure.
14:44Just pretend like she isn't outside.
14:49Mr. Crawford?
14:51Is everything okay in there?
14:53Uh, fine.
14:54I, I just need some assistance.
14:56Okay.
14:57Well, do you need my help?
14:59What?
15:00No, I didn't mean...
15:01Are you sure?
15:02Because I don't mind.
15:03I can come in there.
15:05Yeah, come in.
15:10So you want to help?
15:11Yeah.
15:12What do you need me to do?
15:16Oh.
15:18Oh.
15:19You meant like...
15:20I...
15:21I...
15:21I...
15:22I...
15:23I wasn't.
15:23I'm just gonna go.
15:25I'm gonna...
15:25I'm gonna wait outside somewhere far away.
15:28Extremely...
15:29Far away.
15:31That was helpful.
15:43Are you okay?
15:45Dr. Anderson said the shots might hurt, but...
15:47It's causing you pain?
15:49It's just a little uncomfortable.
15:50It'll pass.
15:56Here.
15:57Should help with the pain.
16:22Well, technically, the hormone shots were a part of our agreement.
16:27The resulting pain is a work-related issue, so...
16:31I have a duty of care.
16:32Yeah.
16:33Yeah.
16:36Yeah.
16:46Yeah.
16:48Yeah.
16:49Yeah.
16:51Yeah.
16:51Yeah.
16:53Yeah.
16:54Yeah.
16:55Yeah.
16:56Yeah.
16:57Yeah.
16:57Yeah.
16:57Yeah.
16:58Yeah.
16:58Yeah.
17:00Yeah.
17:01Yeah.
17:23Purely professional, huh?
17:33There's an emergency in Atlanta. The merger's falling apart. Thompson, get the jet ready.
17:38Wait, but your family, they invited me to go to dinner.
17:43Okay, I can deal with this myself.
17:49I guess we can't expect punctuality from someone who's probably never owned a proper watch in her life.
17:55I introduced him to the Thompsoners, the senator's daughter.
17:59Why you picked this gold digger from God knows where?
18:02What did you say she did again, Ethan? Retail?
18:05Worse. She's a wannabe writer.
18:08She probably thought landing at Crawford would get her best son scored.
18:12Well, at least I tried to be welcoming.
18:14Had the chef prepared her place at the table and everything.
18:17Although she probably would have had trouble figuring out which fork to use.
18:31I'm so sorry for my slight delay.
18:37Wow. Look at you, trying to dress the part.
18:40Looks like Adrienne's credit card has gotten a good workout.
18:43Money can buy you designer clothes. Too bad it can't buy you braiding.
18:47Actually, I made this dress myself.
18:50A seamstress for a sister-in-law.
18:53At least you know who's going to be looking at Adrienne Sox.
18:56I may not be born from privilege, but I was raised with something from my family.
19:04I believe you.
19:06That's what you call seducing your way into my family, huh?
19:09How much? What will it take to make you disappear?
19:13Name me a price.
19:14Do you want to know the difference between you and I, Mr. Crawford?
19:17I don't think that everything is a price tag.
19:19Hey, excuse me.
19:34It's okay. Stay calm. You can do this.
19:39All dressed up for me, baby.
19:43I need to return to dinner.
19:45What's the rush? I mean, we're all family.
19:51Don't touch me.
19:53You used to like it when I touched you.
19:55Remember how you'd always say no?
19:56You need to let go of me, you bastard!
19:59Careful now.
20:00One screen and everyone at dinner finds out what kind of girl you really are.
20:04And our love history.
20:05Now, where were we?
20:12Is everything all right, dear?
20:15You look a little luster.
20:18As I was saying, the Wilson merger was moving on the price.
20:23Stop it!
20:26Something wrong, Miss Reed?
20:27No.
20:28I am.
20:33Enough!
20:34No class, no manners.
20:36I don't know what you did to seduce my son, but someone like you will never deserve a place in
20:41this family.
20:43Well, I-I-I-
20:47I'm the one who pursued her.
20:48I asked her to give you the chance.
20:51If anyone's unworthy of this relationship, it's me.
20:54You wanna know how we met?
20:56She fell into my life.
20:57Papers flying everywhere.
20:59Cough is spilled.
21:00But unlike some people, she didn't care about my name or my money.
21:03I asked her to be with me.
21:05But she said no.
21:06I said I was too controlling.
21:07She's the only woman who ever dared to stand up to me.
21:10That's exactly why I asked her to be my fiance.
21:15I thought you were in Atlanta.
21:16How did you get here?
21:20Uh, sir?
21:21Two things.
21:22Your sister has invited Mrs. Crawford to the family dinner, and the jet is ready.
21:26We can leave whenever you're ready.
21:27Cancel Atlanta.
21:29Sir, what about the merger?
21:30Yes, sir.
21:33I thought you were in Atlanta.
21:35How did you get here?
21:36Some things are more important than business.
21:42It's a very touching story, Uncle.
21:44But either it's a complete lie, or she's playing both of us.
21:47What are you talking about?
21:48We've been dating for three years.
21:51I have pictures of us together.
21:53What?
21:53She probably planned this from the start.
21:55Dating me to get close to the family, and then setting her sights high on me.
21:59You may do it to a cliff.
22:00Face it, Uncle.
22:02You're just another rung and her ladder to the top.
22:04Isn't that right, Lila?
22:09That's for all the lies you just told.
22:12You filthy little...
22:14Adrian!
22:15How dare you hit my son!
22:18Lila!
22:21Where do you think you're going?
22:23We are not finished here!
22:24Yes, we are.
22:26Yes, we are.
22:38I'm sorry.
22:39I should have never left you alone with them.
22:42Thank you for coming back, and for making up that beautiful story about us.
22:48Lila, your dress.
22:50What happened?
22:53As my fiancee, you have access to the family accounts.
22:57I want you to use them to buy yourself some clothes, whatever else you need.
23:01I didn't want to presume.
23:03You are not just a surrogate.
23:05My fiancee.
23:06Act like one.
23:10Dr. Anderson?
23:12Mr. Crawford, the embryos are ready.
23:13We can proceed with implantation tomorrow morning.
23:16I see.
23:19Is something wrong with the embryos?
23:22Well, I was thinking maybe we could approach this matter from a more natural manner.
23:28Between husband and wife.
23:34What are your thoughts?
23:36I...
23:37I have a big procedure tomorrow, but...
23:41We should get some rest.
23:45Goodnight.
23:46Goodnight.
23:55You look like a giant polar bear in that suit.
23:58You need to focus on the procedure.
24:01Try to relax, Ms. Crawford.
24:04And...
24:06There.
24:09Congratulations to the Crawfords.
24:11You're now officially pregnant.
24:16Whoa.
24:18You know I can walk, right?
24:20Doctor's orders, complete rest.
24:21You seem more nervous than I am.
24:23I'm merely following medical protocol.
24:25He.
24:27Look at her.
24:28Acting like a princess.
24:30Yeah.
24:31Apparently, last week, she was a waitress.
24:33And now, she has Mr. Crawford wrapped around her finger.
24:37I don't know where I am.
24:45Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
24:57Oh, no, no.
25:04Don't know where I am.
25:07She's got a bit unstable there.
25:08You need someone to hold you up?
25:10Let me go!
25:11Why? You used to love spending time with me.
25:14I mean, we would spend hours in cafes.
25:15You would lean into me while reading your favorite...
25:17Did she?
25:20Did she?
25:21Get out.
25:24Oh, Adrian.
25:26What's wrong?
25:27My stomach, it hurts.
25:30Anything.
25:30Anything happens to my fiancé or our child,
25:33I can't guarantee what I might do.
25:36What you want,
25:37we'll never have it.
25:39Never.
25:40Come on.
25:45Child.
25:47Three years, and she wouldn't let me touch her.
25:49And now she's carrying my uncle's child?
25:52You want a perfect little family?
25:54It's not gonna happen.
26:04Thompson.
26:05Clear my schedule.
26:06Everything for the next month goes to Jack.
26:09Sir, what happened?
26:10Do you need my help?
26:12Can't help on this one.
26:13Just do what I say.
26:16You and Ethan have never gotten all we have, you?
26:21Why?
26:23You seem very concerned about him.
26:26I just...
26:27Rest.
26:27You can do whatever makes you comfortable.
26:29Maybe you want.
26:30Anything I want?
26:32Rest.
26:33We have a big day in the world.
26:50But if you want that man.
26:59Maybe...
27:03Ah...
27:06Um, I don't think I can hold this pose for much longer.
27:10It's okay, I got you.
27:12It's all in the hips.
27:15Let me jump you.
27:19This is very intimate.
27:23We are here to train.
27:25Let's do it properly.
27:27Good job.
27:31Good job.
27:41Gala isn't a test.
27:43I know, but as the school's largest owner, they specifically requested that you come.
27:48You look perfect.
28:02Just be yourself.
28:07Adrian, it's been too long.
28:10You look exactly the same.
28:15And you must be the fiance.
28:18I'm so pleased Adrian finally found somebody.
28:23That's really nice.
28:25I'm sorry, who are you?
28:27Just someone who wants Adrian's happiness more than anything.
28:32Oh my God.
28:33You two are finally back together.
28:36Everyone, look at me.
28:38The golden couple.
28:40I heard Adrian Crawford was engaged.
28:43I knew it had to be you, Vivian.
28:45The perfect match.
28:46Just like a Chatsworth.
28:48When's the wedding?
28:54Everyone, I'd like you all to meet my fiancee.
28:59Valerie, we're expecting our first child.
29:01And yes, you'll all be invited to the wedding.
29:03Oh, I'm so sorry.
29:05I just assumed.
29:07Congratulations to both of you.
29:10Adrian Crawford in a complete unknown.
29:13How did she do that?
29:15Oh my gosh, she's pregnant.
29:17Can you knock her out?
29:19They can be so judgmental.
29:22Can't they?
29:23Don't take it personally.
29:25Dear.
29:34They do look like the perfect couple.
29:46Drinking?
29:47I thought you were pregnant.
29:50That's none of your business.
29:52You know, Uncle Adrian, he...
29:56He always has to win.
29:58Especially if I take something from him.
30:00What are you talking about?
30:06Perfect couple, huh?
30:08Yeah, that was until I took Vivian away from her.
30:11She fell madly in love with me.
30:14Ever since then, he always has to have what I want.
30:16He always has to win whatever I have.
30:19Like you.
30:20What you want, you'll never have it.
30:22You and your friend have never gotten along, have you?
30:28My book, do you not understand?
30:30Don't be so naive.
30:31You're just a tool for revenge.
30:39What do you think you're doing?
30:41You're pregnant.
30:43Why are you drinking?
30:44Oh, now you care?
30:45It's just soda.
30:46I know what I'm doing.
30:53What happened back there?
30:54Talk to me.
30:55Lila, I'm worried.
30:58So you'll talk to Ethan, but not to me.
31:00You do care so much about your nephew, don't you?
31:13The egg is still warm.
31:16I wanted to apologize for last night.
31:19I was just worried about you.
31:21Worried about me or worried about your baby?
31:25What do you mean?
31:26Is that why you're being so nice to me?
31:29Making me breakfast, being protective.
31:32Is it all just for the baby's health?
31:35Lila, why have you been so weird since yesterday?
31:37Was Vivian your girlfriend?
31:39Yes.
31:41And then she got together with Ethan?
31:43Yes.
31:45So, I'm just...
31:47Vivian and I never...
31:53What is it?
31:54Sir, the Sigboard merger is falling apart.
31:57We need you here immediately.
31:59I'm in the middle of a...
32:00The board is threatening to pull out.
32:02I'll be right there.
32:04Can we discuss this later?
32:05I have to go.
32:06Of course.
32:07Business first.
32:08Lila, I...
32:09Just go.
32:19Sir.
32:20Sir.
32:21There have been some complications.
32:25Explain.
32:26In your absence,
32:27Ethan's been meeting with members of the board.
32:30Suggesting that,
32:31due to your sudden marriage plans,
32:33you might be showing
32:35erratic decision making.
32:38And now certain executives believe
32:40that maybe someone so personally distracted
32:42isn't fit to inherit the company.
32:44Fascinating.
32:50Mr. Crawford.
32:53We've been discussing
32:54my personal life.
32:56Your sudden absence has caused
32:58many problems.
33:00Let me be very clear here.
33:02This company suffered
33:0340% profit loss
33:05before I took over.
33:06Within the last three years,
33:08I tripled our market share.
33:10Every major merger,
33:12every successful acquisition,
33:14every stock surge,
33:16has been because of my execution
33:18and my strategies.
33:21So yes,
33:22I'm getting married.
33:25But yeah,
33:25I took some time off.
33:27And no,
33:28no one in this room
33:29has the right to question
33:30my commitment
33:31or capability.
33:33Because without me,
33:34that wouldn't even be
33:35a company.
33:35now,
33:37shall we discuss
33:38the merger?
33:45Sorry about her.
33:47I'm just...
33:56it's beautiful.
33:57Yeah, I love this one.
34:03Adrian!
34:04What the hell were you thinking
34:06in the board meeting yesterday?
34:07I was doing my job.
34:09Your job
34:10is to follow
34:11the family strategy.
34:12Ever since she came
34:13into your life,
34:14you've been undermining
34:15everything we've built.
34:16Leave Lila out of here.
34:18I don't need to sit here
34:19and listen to this.
34:20Yes, run along.
34:21The adults are talking business.
34:23I'll take care of this, dear.
34:25Don't worry,
34:25I'll bear it out.
34:27This girl is poison
34:28to the Crawford name.
34:30She's nothing
34:31but a broodmare.
34:32Once she delivers,
34:33pay her off
34:34and be done with it.
34:37She's nothing
34:38but a broodmare.
34:39Once she delivers,
34:40pay her off
34:41and be done with it.
34:42Adrian needs someone.
34:43Who's this one?
34:45Someone like me.
34:46Vivian is joining
34:47Crawford Industries
34:48tomorrow.
34:49Non-negotiable.
34:50She'll be with you
34:51every day,
34:51just like before.
34:52Your little pet project
34:53can stay home
34:54and jestate.
34:55That's all
34:55she's good for.
35:08Get out!
35:09But how dare you!
35:11If you ever speak
35:11about my life
35:12that way again,
35:13I'll burn Crawford
35:13Industries to the ground.
35:14Adrian,
35:15be reasonable.
35:16Enough.
35:179 a.m. tomorrow,
35:18Vivian starts.
35:20Defy me,
35:21I'll dilute this shit.
35:23Is that all?
35:28Hey, Lila!
35:30Lila!
35:31Are you okay?
35:34Don't worry.
35:35I got you.
35:42Thank you
35:44for helping me.
35:46I know we've had
35:47our differences,
35:48but I really appreciate it.
35:52You know,
35:53you still look at me
35:53like that all the time.
35:55Well, sweet and sincere.
35:58Please don't.
36:00Why not, Lila?
36:02I mean,
36:02are we really
36:03so impossible?
36:04Ethan.
36:06No!
36:08No!
36:10No!
36:13Adrian!
36:13Adrian!
36:14Stop!
36:14What are you doing?
36:15Protecting you.
36:16No,
36:17he saved me.
36:18He helped me
36:19and he brought me here
36:20today after I fainted.
36:21So now you're
36:22defending him?
36:22I'm defending the truth.
36:25Sometimes people
36:26can surprise you.
36:27I see.
36:29Adrian.
36:30I'll call the doctor.
36:31Adrian.
36:37I want a full blood panel,
36:39fetal monitoring,
36:40and get the OB-GYN
36:41down here immediately.
36:42Mr. Crawford,
36:44it was a minor fall.
36:45A complete prenatal
36:46checkup as well.
36:47I already called
36:48the neurologist.
36:54Always so controlling,
36:55aren't you, Uncle?
36:56At least one of us
36:57knows how to make
36:57Lila happy.
36:59You remember our
36:59beach dates?
37:01You said that I was
37:02the most fun you ever had.
37:03Thompson,
37:05bring in the following
37:06catering.
37:07The one with the
37:07Michelin star,
37:08I believe Lila mentioned
37:09she was craving salmon.
37:11Medium fatty cut,
37:12no asabi.
37:13I didn't say I was.
37:15You remember when
37:15we'd watch movies?
37:16Her favorite movie
37:18was always Pride and Prejudice,
37:20BBC adaptation,
37:211995.
37:22She watches it
37:23when she's stressed out.
37:25Which is why
37:25I had our home theater
37:26upgraded with the
37:27original film reels
37:28from the BBC archive.
37:30You did what?
37:31Okay, both of you,
37:33get out.
37:34Is this just a competition
37:35between you two?
37:37Go.
37:38I need to be alone.
37:45Lila, my baby.
37:47Hi, Daddy.
37:50What happened?
37:53Oh, it's nothing.
37:54Don't worry.
37:56I have to tell you something.
37:59I'm going to be a mother.
38:02It's not that Ethan voice,
38:04is it?
38:04No, it's not his.
38:06Oh, good.
38:09Well, then who's?
38:11It doesn't matter
38:12who the father is.
38:13What matters is that
38:14he's going to be my baby
38:16and I'm going to love it
38:17so much,
38:17just like you loved me.
38:19Oh, sweetheart.
38:21I could have given you
38:22so much more.
38:24I should have given you
38:25so much more
38:26if I was healthier,
38:26if I...
38:28No, no, no.
38:29If I was in this hospital,
38:31I...
38:31Don't do that.
38:34Who...
38:36Wait a minute.
38:37Who's paying the bills
38:38for the hospital?
38:40Who's...
38:40You didn't sell yourself
38:41to some men,
38:43did you?
38:43It's not like that.
38:45Did someone take advantage
38:46of you?
38:48Wait a minute.
38:50My poor girl.
38:51Alone and pregnant?
38:53You...
38:53You...
38:53She's not alone.
38:56Mr. Reed,
38:58Majin Crawford
38:59fathered her child.
39:03Adrian.
39:05I'm not just the father.
39:07I'm the man
39:08who's going to spend
39:08the rest of his life
39:09making sure that
39:09your daughter
39:10and our child
39:12have everything
39:13they deserve.
39:14That's pretty words
39:15coming from a rich man.
39:17Not words, sir.
39:19Facts.
39:20No, Adrian.
39:21I promise you this.
39:23Every morning
39:24when your daughter
39:25wakes up,
39:27she'll know
39:28if she's cherished.
39:29Every decision I make,
39:30every step I take
39:33will be to ensure
39:34her happiness.
39:35You really mean that,
39:38don't you?
39:40Yes, sir, I do.
39:43Oh, I can finally
39:45stop worrying now.
39:51Oh.
39:56Hey.
39:58Thank you
39:59for saying all that.
40:01I know you were just
40:01trying to make my father
40:02feel better, but...
40:03No.
40:04Lila.
40:05I wasn't just
40:06doing anything.
40:07Every word I said
40:08in there
40:09was true.
40:10Adrian.
40:13Lila,
40:13I need you to understand
40:14something.
40:16I've been falling for you
40:17since you crashed
40:18into my office
40:19with that ridiculous
40:20donor questionnaire.
40:22Yes,
40:23we started with a contract,
40:25but
40:26I realize
40:27you become everything
40:28to me.
40:28Not my surrogate,
40:30not my convenient
40:31fiance.
40:32My partner.
40:34If you'll have me.
40:36But what about
40:37Ethan and Vivian?
40:39What about them?
40:41You were just
40:41using me to get
40:42revenge on Ethan,
40:44right?
40:44Revenge?
40:45I never loved Vivian.
40:47And Ethan,
40:48she's not worth
40:48a second thought.
40:50You're the woman
40:51I never thought
40:52I'd find.
40:53The mother of
40:54my future child,
40:54my future wife.
40:56And
40:58love of my life.
41:00I'm not letting you go.
41:02Not ever.
41:06Surrogacy.
41:07A contract marriage.
41:09Oh,
41:10this is too perfect.
41:17What's so urgent?
41:19I know something
41:20about our little problem
41:21that might interest you.
41:24If this is about
41:25her and Adrian.
41:26It's about how
41:27she actually
41:27got pregnant.
41:32my perfect uncle.
41:34He hired her.
41:36She's a servant.
41:38I mean,
41:39their whole
41:39their whole
41:40engagement is a lie.
41:42The contract.
41:45The board would love
41:47to hear about this.
41:49At our next family meeting,
41:51we will reveal everything.
41:52We need to gather
41:55hard evidence
41:56until then.
41:58And once he's ruined?
42:00I'll take the company,
42:02of course.
42:03And you'll have Adrian
42:04all to yourself.
42:06And Lila?
42:08Lila.
42:10She's mine.
42:24Surrogacy agreement.
42:26Marriage contract.
42:27There's got to be
42:28a booth somewhere.
42:30Adrian,
42:31you are always
42:31so organized.
42:33There's going to be
42:34important documents
42:35here somewhere.
42:50Mr. Cropper.
43:01Shit, shit, shit.
43:10Oh, Adrian.
43:12I've been waiting
43:13for you.
43:17No, Adrian.
43:20An heir
43:20is what you need.
43:23We
43:24could make one
43:25right
43:26now.
43:28Poor Lila
43:29doesn't have to know.
43:30It could be our
43:33little secret.
43:35Right now.
43:37Anytime you want
43:38to.
43:40What if Lila
43:41comes back?
43:42Scared.
43:44Why don't we
43:45go down to the
43:46wine cellar?
43:48You know
43:49I've always loved
43:50it down there.
43:51Better put this
43:53on.
43:58Perfect.
44:08Adrian.
44:10You can't do
44:11this to me.
44:12I'm a Crawford
44:14Industries
44:14executive.
44:16This is our
44:17accident.
44:20Adrian.
44:23Adrian.
44:29It's going to be mine
44:32soon.
44:38Everyone.
44:40This crisis
44:42almost destroyed
44:43us.
44:44But thanks to
44:45your tireless
44:46efforts,
44:47Crawford is
44:48stronger than
44:49ever.
44:50Cheers
44:51to the best
44:53company in the
44:54world.
44:54world.
44:57Although,
44:59speaking of
44:59tonight's
45:00celebration,
45:01there is
45:02something that
45:02you should all
45:03be prepared for.
45:04For what?
45:06Well,
45:07my uncle
45:08is bringing
45:09his fiancee.
45:11But the
45:12thing is,
45:14she and I
45:15used to be
45:16together
45:16until very
45:17recently.
45:19I know,
45:20I know.
45:21But listen,
45:22when they arrive,
45:23I want us just
45:24to act
45:25normal.
45:26Now,
45:26I can't bear
45:27any more drama.
45:28So she left
45:29you for
45:30your uncle?
45:32These things
45:32happen.
45:34Everyone,
45:35I'd like you
45:36all to meet
45:36my fiancee,
45:38Lila Reed.
45:40Hi.
45:41It's lovely
45:42to meet you
45:42all.
45:46Hello,
45:47everyone.
45:50Real hero
45:51of the hour.
45:59How are you
45:59feeling?
46:00Is the morning
46:01sickness gone yet?
46:02I'm fine.
46:04And I'm
46:05worried about you.
46:06All this stress,
46:07it can't be good
46:07for the baby.
46:09Have you gone
46:09to the doctor lately?
46:10Because I could
46:11drive you next time.
46:13That won't be
46:13necessary.
46:15Come on,
46:15Lila.
46:16We used to tell
46:17each other everything.
46:19I just want to
46:19make sure you're
46:20getting the proper
46:20care you need.
46:22It's very thoughtful,
46:23but Adrian
46:24takes me to
46:24always do the
46:25appointments personally.
46:26She's beautiful,
46:27isn't she?
46:29She's just
46:30the kind of woman
46:31that belongs
46:31in Adrian's world.
46:33It's beautiful.
46:35We both know
46:36how Adrian thinks.
46:38I mean,
46:38he's like
46:39a chess master.
46:41Every piece
46:42has its use.
46:43Some are for business
46:44and others
46:45are for it.
46:46You don't know him.
46:48Oh,
46:49but I do.
46:50Adrian Crawford
46:52loves exactly
46:53one person
46:53and that's
46:54Adrian Crawford.
46:57people are like
46:58investments to him.
47:00You know,
47:00Vivian,
47:01she's perfect
47:02to run the company.
47:04And I think
47:04we both know
47:05what your role is.
47:12He's wrong.
47:14He has to be wrong.
47:23everyone in this world
47:24has their place
47:26or purpose.
47:30I think it's time
47:31I found mine again.
47:48baby,
47:49when's the last time
47:50you ate?
47:52Um,
47:53breakfast?
47:54Yesterday's breakfast.
47:57I think that's
47:59enough for that.
48:00You still have to train.
48:01Come on.
48:08Good.
48:09So apparently
48:11this position
48:12works with pregnancy.
48:17Like this?
48:20Almost.
48:23You know,
48:24I think I need
48:24more instruction.
48:38Well,
48:39everything looks perfect.
48:40The baby's development
48:41is right on track.
48:43Really?
48:44Really.
48:45Now that we're
48:45in this stable period,
48:48intimate relations
48:49are completely safe.
48:52Right?
48:53I mean,
48:53be gentle.
48:54Yes.
48:55Thank you, doctor.
48:55Appreciate it.
48:56Sure.
48:57Yeah.
49:06Dr. Anderson.
49:07Hmm.
49:08Let's talk about
49:08this agreement.
49:10Can you confirm
49:11that it is
49:12a servicy contract?
49:14Mr. Harrington,
49:15patient confidentiality
49:17precludes me
49:17from discussing
49:18anything about
49:19my patients.
49:20You know,
49:20the new hospital
49:21complex is looking
49:22for department heads.
49:23It would be a shame
49:24if your name
49:25got mysteriously
49:26removed from consideration.
49:31Sign here.
49:48Oh, no.
49:53Surrogacy?
49:55Surrogacy?
49:57Five generations
49:58of Crawford dignity
50:00destroyed by
50:01tabloid gossip.
50:03I knew that
50:04there was something
50:04wrong with that group.
50:05Did you really
50:06pay some
50:06nobody
50:07to carry
50:09your air?
50:09Tell me
50:10this isn't true.
50:12You.
50:14This is
50:14your doing.
50:21Adrian,
50:22I need to
50:23discuss something
50:24private.
50:26Adrian,
50:27I can make
50:27all these
50:28disappear.
50:29All you
50:30have to do
50:31is
50:32make me
50:33the true
50:34Mrs. Crawford.
50:35The true
50:36Mrs. Crawford?
50:38We're so
50:39perfect together.
50:40We can't be
50:41again.
50:42Let's give me
50:43the position
50:43I deserve.
50:46You know,
50:46I do need
50:47your help,
50:48actually.
50:49Please,
50:49never show up
50:50here again.
50:59I'm not gonna
51:00let them hurt you.
51:01I'm not worried
51:02about you.
51:05If they
51:05expose the truth
51:06about our
51:07relationship,
51:08you're gonna
51:09lose everything
51:09that you worked
51:10so hard for.
51:11Nothing is
51:12more important
51:12than you
51:13and our
51:14child.
51:21This emergency
51:22family meeting
51:23will come to
51:24order.
51:25I have proof.
51:26Mrs. Reed
51:27isn't Adrian's
51:28loving bride-to-be.
51:29These are
51:30medical records
51:31showing that
51:31she underwent
51:32IVF treatment.
51:35Showing that
51:36she underwent
51:37IVF treatment.
51:38I have proof
51:40soon.
51:41Here,
51:41a surrogacy
51:42contract.
51:44It will show
51:44you how much
51:45she was
51:45compensated.
51:47Generously.
51:47I love that.
51:49Paid
51:50surrogacy.
51:51How come?
51:53Fine.
51:54You know what the truth?
51:55This started as
51:56surrogacy.
51:58But Lila,
52:00she's the mother
52:01I chose for my
52:01child.
52:03And I won't let
52:04any of you slander her.
52:05You want this
52:06arrangement?
52:07Fine.
52:08But it costs you
52:10everything.
52:11Resign from the
52:12company.
52:13Give up your
52:14inheritance.
52:15The child can
52:17stay in the family,
52:18of course.
52:19But the mother,
52:21you know,
52:22after delivering,
52:23your services
52:23will no longer be
52:24required.
52:25Yes,
52:26I did IVF treatment.
52:28But I never,
52:30never thought
52:31about this baby
52:32as a business
52:32transaction.
52:34You can think
52:34whatever you want
52:35about me.
52:37But don't you
52:37ever question
52:39my love for this
52:39child.
52:42Enough.
52:43I'm willing to
52:44give up everything.
52:46The company,
52:46the inheritance.
52:48But I won't
52:49give her up.
52:50She's my wife.
52:52And I'm willing
52:53to do anything
52:53for her.
52:55We're getting
52:56married.
52:57Properly.
52:58Publicly.
53:00You want to
53:01throw everything
53:01away for this,
53:02this woman?
53:04Then you get
53:05nothing from this
53:06family.
53:07Nothing!
53:09Sign it.
53:10Renounce your
53:11inheritance.
53:13all of it.
53:14Adrian,
53:15please.
53:15I'm not worth
53:17losing everything
53:18over.
53:20You're worth
53:20everything.
53:21This company,
53:22these assets,
53:24built them once
53:25I can build them
