00:01:27a charity case sitting next to Charles quiet Charles I've always had words for
00:01:38everything but in that moment I forgot them all
00:01:53Charles move your things I'd rather not she'll be a distraction from what
00:02:00sleeping from everything if anything Charles Miss Keaton will be a positive
00:02:05influence on you she was top of her class at a previous school with all due

00:02:19enough she can sit here it's fine
00:02:24back to Goldie thank you you got it I'm Sherry Vaughn Alice Keaton it's very important that we look at
00:02:33what he's talking about their experience of the time
00:02:39wait you sat next to Charles she didn't you totally shut her down oh knew it don't take it
00:02:46personally he's impossible can everyone stop acting like the goal is getting into his pants
00:02:51what he's hot everyone kind of is I I've seen Connor he's not my type you're joking I don't find
00:03:01bullies attractive hey be careful we're talking about the king of Ashford the what his family

00:03:15one can get past his ego you're not the first to get nice okay first of all I wasn't iced
00:03:21it's more
00:03:21like a mutual decision and second I think he's arrogant cold thinks he's untouchable but if you
00:03:29really look at Charles he just seems isolated like he's making honestly I just think he's lonely and
00:03:36kind of pathetic what no go on you were saying I'm lonely and pathetic next time read the room

00:06:40must
00:06:40seem quite pleased with the arrangement well I just don't think it's appropriate well you're sure then
00:06:46absolutely not come on Alice you must stay it'll be fun my dear classmate I'm dead like mentally socially
00:07:04and actually dead just trying to figure out how exactly my life went off the rails get it together
00:07:18Alice Keaton you've been through hell actually no this is hell good morning
00:07:46Alice Keaton what thing doesn't know that stops been closed for months she's going to be late
00:07:59okay how long is this thing gonna take maybe I'll just walk five miles to school
00:08:07okay if I sprint maybe I'll make it before first period or die of exhaustion on the way
00:08:20what what are you doing here didn't you already leave
00:08:26wait did you come back for me relax I forgot my textbook don't flatter yourself wait
00:08:39since you're already here maybe you could be a decent person and give me a ride
00:08:48no seriously your car is huge yeah and I'm not a fan of sharing says the guy who forced me
00:08:58to live in
00:08:59his house unbelievable
00:09:13Ashford Institute please thank you
00:09:20who needs an entitled brat anyway sir you called the cab why not just give miss Keaton a lift
00:09:32why not just give miss Keaton a lift and have the whole school go crazy she's new everybody's
00:09:38already talking so you're worried about her you're overthinking I just don't like drama
00:09:51asshole hey morning class back to Golding remind me what he's saying through Lord of the Flies
00:10:04Mr Kenwood care to share what you found so amusing
00:10:08not particularly oh I insist you seem very entertained by Golding
00:10:14I'm not entertained by Golding sir on the contrary I think his ending is weak
00:10:22wait wait do I actually read it quiet
00:10:28that's an interesting take explain
00:10:32he had the set up for something brutal something honest in the end he backed out he could have left
00:10:39the boys on the island force them to confront the collapse of all morality let them choose survival
00:10:45or death but instead he gave them a rescue boat slapped a happily ever after on a book about savagery
00:10:56it's a waste don't you think I'm delightfully surprised Charles didn't think you had such strong
00:11:02literary opinions I'm always a model student sir let's not get ahead of ourselves
00:11:09so a critique of Golding's mercy anyone disagree
00:11:29I think Golding knew exactly what he was doing by ending the book that way it's not mercy it's irony
00:11:35how so
00:11:38the rescue isn't a happy ending you don't just walk back into society and forget you're a monster
00:11:44Golding didn't save them he left us with the discomfort of pretending they could be saved
00:11:48that's an interesting take Miss Keeter you still think it's a harsh critique
00:11:53in some ways but not harsh enough yes it's a critique of toxic masculinity but still Golding
00:12:02sympathize with them and the civilized world toxic violent he didn't call that out nearly as much
00:12:07so yeah I don't think Golding pushed far enough but I think it's unfair to call it a happy ending
00:12:16thank you Miss Keeter well said anyone else
00:12:23both opinions are valid okay that's kind of epic Golding faced major backlash when he first published
00:12:30the book good literature will always divide what's happening to me
00:12:43okay what is going on why is everyone staring at me well you're new and apparently had a thing
00:12:49with Charles oh what now you two are in the middle of this epic feud as your teen in years
00:12:56we're not
00:12:56even fighting well according to everyone you confessed your love on day one got rejected
00:13:01begged to sit next to him got rejected again and today in class you broke down crying about not
00:13:08believing in happy endings and stormed out in tears you were there Sherry that is not what happened
00:13:17doesn't matter people believe what they want to believe and they want Charles to be flawless
00:13:23untouchable wow is massage any like a rich kid thing or is a British specialty honestly both but
00:13:31seriously Alice some people already see you as a threat okay loaded it's like the new girls in for a
00:13:46rough
00:13:47first semester hello hello is somebody out there

00:15:00yikes looks like the new girls in for a rough first semester
00:15:09shit
00:15:14Alice
00:15:15Alice
00:15:16Mr Pelton Charles Kenwood here I was wondering if I could get the timetable for Alice Keaton

00:16:29Alice
00:16:30to you in the dark
00:16:31Alice
00:16:41You're welcome.
00:16:42I didn't say thank you.
00:16:44I figured saving your life might earn me basic manners.
00:16:47Someone just dumped swamp water on me.
00:16:50Excuse me if I'm not feeling very polite.
00:16:52You smell like a biology experiment.
00:16:54Wow.
00:16:55You should try falling out of a window into someone's arms and getting insulted for it.
00:16:59I wouldn't recommend it.
00:17:01You're heavier than you look.
00:17:04I hope you pull your shoulder.
00:17:11Are you okay?
00:17:12No.
00:17:14But I will be.
00:17:16Someone did this on purpose.
00:17:18What do you think, golden boy?
00:17:21Don't worry, I can handle it.
00:17:22You shouldn't have to.
00:17:26I'm...
00:17:27Sorry.
00:17:34Sorry.
00:17:35Sorry.
00:17:40Did you just apologize to me?
00:17:42Don't get used to it.
00:17:43I wouldn't dream of it.
00:17:47Alice?
00:17:48Alice?
00:17:49Alice?
00:17:49Over here.
00:17:49Oh my god.
00:17:52You okay?
00:17:55Why are you drenched?
00:17:57Yeah, I just...
00:17:58I took a weird shower.
00:18:00Top exploded.
00:18:03Come on.
00:18:04Let's get you home.
00:18:15Alice's cheating, right?
00:18:17I heard she staged the whole thing for attention.
00:18:43I know how this place works.
00:18:45If you don't do anything about it, it's only going to get worse.
00:18:50I'll look into it.
00:18:52Charles?
00:18:55Good on you.
00:18:56How many here would speak up?
00:19:02I can't believe someone actually locked you in.
00:19:04That's insane.
00:19:05Where the hell was the school when this was happening?
00:19:08Busy protecting their golden boys and trust friends.
00:19:11Well, for what it's worth,
00:19:12I heard Charles looked pretty freaked out when he ran out last night.
00:19:17Please, he just didn't want a lawsuit.
00:19:36Being a scholarship student has its perks.
00:19:39Like saving a fortune on tuition
00:19:41and getting into schools that normally wouldn't even let you pass the gates.
00:19:46Hey!
00:19:47We miss you in Paris!
00:19:49Though there are enough Americans to remind us of you.
00:19:52But sometimes,
00:19:53being here means staying behind.
00:19:55And watching Ashford Elites go on a two-week enrichment program
00:19:59you can never afford.
00:20:02Have fun!
00:20:03Bring me something
00:20:06overpriced
00:20:07and
00:20:07unnecessary.
00:20:10The trip cost 20 grand in pounds,
00:20:13which translates to
00:20:14mom's salary for half a year.
00:20:16So yeah,
00:20:17I didn't go.
00:20:20I didn't go.
00:20:47It's an Ewok.
00:20:48This is not even your kitchen.
00:20:51And this is not even your house.
00:20:52And yet,
00:20:53you're here,
00:20:53dressed like this.
00:20:55Just don't look.
00:20:56Go away.
00:20:57Hard not to.
00:20:58And you're walking around dressed like that.
00:21:00What do you guys call it?
00:21:02Um,
00:21:03buzzkill?
00:21:05Cockblock.
00:21:06You're insufferable.
00:21:07You're the one cosplaying at breakfast.
00:21:09You know what?
00:21:10I don't get it.
00:21:11Why didn't you go on that tour?
00:21:12I thought rich people live for that kind of thing.
00:21:15Why do you think?
00:21:21How would I go?
00:21:22I could practically recite the itinerary in my sleep.
00:21:26Florence,
00:21:27walk in the great footsteps of Dante,
00:21:30Michelangelo,
00:21:31Da Vinci,
00:21:31and Titian,
00:21:32or
00:21:32Tiziano,
00:21:33if you want to sound extra pretentious.
00:21:36Then Venice,
00:21:37because everybody loves a good canal
00:21:39and getting lost in the most confusing city on earth.
00:21:42The next stop,
00:21:43Napoli,
00:21:44marvel at Pompeii,
00:21:45to pretend you're shocked ancient people had plumbing.
00:21:48The final stop,
00:21:50Harry,
00:21:51the ultimate city of romance.
00:21:54And, naturally,
00:21:55Woody Allen's favourite city outside of New York.
00:22:01That's word for word.
00:22:03I told you,
00:22:04I've done this tour so many times I could run it.
00:22:07Okay, but still, it's Europe.
00:22:09Most people would kill for that chance.
00:22:11Most people haven't had their phones stolen in Paris.
00:22:14Twice.
00:22:16Also, I hate the accommodations.
00:22:18Aren't they all five-star hotels?
00:22:20Standard rooms in five-star hotels.
00:22:23No, thank you.
00:22:25Wow.
00:22:26Some were born in Rome, huh?
00:22:27That's unfortunate.
00:22:28It's a very chaotic city.
00:22:30One word of advice?
00:22:31Shut up.
00:22:32That's two words.
00:22:35You're weird.
00:22:36You're loud.
00:22:37You're annoying.
00:22:37You're in my kitchen.
00:22:38You have three other kitchens.
00:22:40And I prefer this one.
00:22:42Just for today.
00:22:43Come back when you've got a shirt on.
00:22:45Come back with normal clothes on.
00:22:46You didn't have to come.
00:22:47Don't tell me what I have to do.
00:22:57After Charles, roads are flooded.
00:22:59Staff won't make it tonight.
00:23:00Will you be alright sorting dinner?
00:23:05I've got it sorted.
00:23:18Jesus, what are you doing?
00:23:20Relax.
00:23:23I'm here to make a deal.
00:23:25What deal?
00:23:25You nearly gave me a heart attack.
00:23:30You'll survive.
00:23:32I'm not selling my body.
00:23:38I'm not selling my body.
00:23:44Wow.
00:23:45I am deeply offended.
00:23:48That thought disgusts me.
00:23:50Then what are you doing?
00:23:51The staff's off tonight.
00:23:53I'm buying dinner.
00:23:57Did you seriously think I'd spend £100 on...
00:24:00No, I...
00:24:01Jesus.
00:24:03Wait, you think I'm not worth £100?
00:24:08I'm not spending £100 to snort you back up.
00:24:11You know what?
00:24:11Dinner's cancelled.
00:24:15Are you sure about that?
00:24:18I present to you.
00:24:20Meatball spaghetti, stir-fried veggies, and french fries.
00:24:23You're welcome.
00:24:25Interesting combo.
00:24:26Well, I know we're not in Italy or France, but this will do.
00:24:31It's...
00:24:31Good.
00:24:38Was that a compliment?
00:24:40Although...
00:24:40I am obliged to inform you.
00:24:43Meatball spaghetti isn't Italian.
00:24:45It's American.
00:24:46And french fries, likely born in South America.
00:24:49You should read more.
00:24:52Put it down.
00:24:54I paid for it.
00:24:55You really just have to win every argument, don't you?
00:24:57To be fair.
00:24:59You make it very easy.
00:25:02It's only easy because it costs £200.
00:25:05You know, if you'd ask for more, I probably would have given it to you.
00:25:07I'll make sure that.
00:25:23Hey, Alice, it's fine.
00:25:25You're fine.
00:25:339-1-1, what's with your emergency?
00:25:399-1-1, what's with your emergency?
00:25:41It's my dad.
00:25:42He needs help.
00:25:43He just had a stroke.
00:25:44Okay, Miss, the hurricane's causing traffic to shut down.
00:25:47We'll get to you as soon as we can.
00:25:48Please, he's not well.
00:25:50I understand.
00:25:51Can you confirm your address?
00:25:55Yes, I'm right here.
00:25:56Hi.
00:25:58My daughter.
00:26:00Please, stay with me, Dad.
00:26:01Please.
00:26:06No.
00:26:08Please, wake up.
00:26:13Dad, please.
00:26:14Please don't leave me.
00:26:16Please don't leave me.
00:26:26Please.
00:26:48You...what are you doing here?
00:26:54You were crying...loudly.
00:26:56Loudly. Kind of hard to ignore.
00:27:00Right. Sorry for the night.
00:27:04Wait, no snarky comeback?
00:27:06Not tonight. I'm too tired.
00:27:09If you're here to argue, knock yourself out.
00:27:13You were calling for your dad, right?
00:27:17Hurricane hit New York. Power went down, traffic froze.
00:27:22Dad had a stroke. We couldn't get help in time.
00:27:28I sat there with a candle while he laid there.
00:27:36Peaceful. Like he was asleep.
00:27:39But he wasn't.
00:27:43So that's why you and your mum moved here?
00:27:47This used to be our hometown.
00:27:50After dad left, we had nowhere else to go.
00:27:59What are you doing?
00:28:04Come on.
00:28:20Wait, I thought the power was out.
00:28:23It is. We have our own generator.
00:28:26Wow. Rich people houses her.
00:28:29Just for tonight, I'll allow it.
00:28:33Allow what?
00:28:34You can call this place your house.
00:28:37So enjoy it.
00:28:38Stephen King's first edition.
00:28:39Alan Gisberg's handwritten letters.
00:28:42Jane Austen's notes.
00:28:43All yours.
00:28:48This is your home, Alice Keaton.
00:28:57Careful.
00:28:59Almost sounded sweet.
00:29:01Don't push it.
00:29:02Okay then.
00:29:05I have one request.
00:29:11What is it?
00:29:19Are you ever going to make a move?
00:29:21Wait.
00:29:22Give me a second.
00:29:22I'm thinking.
00:29:24You had one wish.
00:29:26Anything in the world.
00:29:28And in the middle of a thunderstorm,
00:29:30inside a literal mansion,
00:29:32you chose chess.
00:29:34Yeah.
00:29:35Got a problem?
00:29:36It's just so cool, like,
00:29:38spies or genius villains in movies.
00:29:41It's literally a board game.
00:29:42Says the guy who owns a custom set.
00:29:45Wait.
00:29:46Does the knight go diagonally?
00:29:48For the tenth time,
00:29:49it moves in an L shape.
00:29:52One.
00:29:53Two.
00:29:54Then turn.
00:29:56There.
00:29:58Happy?
00:29:58Ecstatic.
00:30:01No.
00:30:02That's suicide.
00:30:04Or a brilliant long-term sacrifice.
00:30:06You are playing checkers at a chessboard.
00:30:08Still beating you in sarcasm.
00:30:09You literally haven't won any past arguments.
00:30:11Golding disagrees.
00:30:13It's going to be a long night.
00:30:15Oh my...
00:30:15No.
00:30:16Why? What's wrong with that?
00:30:17You can't do that.
00:30:18No, no.
00:30:19They're all my kids.
00:30:21There we go.
00:30:21You had to shop a trip and about it all wrong.
00:30:24Time to pull you in close.
00:30:26As we locked on your phone.
00:30:28All yourself work cause I'm moving on.
00:30:31Oh yeah.
00:30:33Showing up at my door.
00:30:37Holding your heart there inside your hands.
00:30:40Maybe...
00:30:41He's not so awful after all.
00:30:51Um, who are you?
00:30:57What are you doing here?
00:30:58Well, your parents said you were still at home.
00:31:01Thank God you skipped that boring grand tour.
00:31:03Who needs Italy and France again, right?
00:31:06When did you get back?
00:31:07Last night. From Zurich.
00:31:09You didn't answer my messages.
00:31:12I missed you.
00:31:14Anyway, thought I'd come surprise you.
00:31:16Apparently, I'm transferring to Ashford.
00:31:19Your parents were so thrilled.
00:31:21They didn't tell me about this.
00:31:22I wanted to deliver the happy news myself.
00:31:24They said it'd be lovely for us to reconnect.
00:31:28You know, considering the engagement and all.
00:31:32Engagement.
00:31:33Oh, did no one tell you?
00:31:36He's promised.
00:31:37Old money stuff. Very retro.
00:31:40I didn't agree to that.
00:31:41You didn't have to.
00:31:42It's never up to us.
00:31:45Where did you find this little toy?
00:31:48Serena.
00:31:48I didn't hear you, you know.
00:31:50Oh, an American.
00:31:54How refreshing.
00:31:58Goodbye.
00:31:59Wait.
00:32:16Where are you going?
00:32:17You still owe me breakfast.
00:32:19You only paid for dinner.
00:32:20Sorry.
00:32:21I had homework.
00:32:22Goodbye.
00:32:26Your little toy has quite the temper.
00:32:28Serena, can you please just stop?
00:32:30What?
00:32:31Teasing the help?
00:32:32No.
00:32:34No.
00:32:38That's her.
00:32:39That's the one from Kenwood's house.
00:32:41Was she like, the maid or something?
00:32:59Oh my god, what's wrong with people?
00:33:02They're saying you live with Charles.
00:33:04Oh, and Serena.
00:33:05What about her?
00:33:06Apparently she told everyone you were caught sneaking into his room.
00:33:10Of course she did.
00:33:24Careful, Alice.
00:33:25You're starting to look desperate.
00:33:38Yeah.
00:33:38Can you help me?
00:33:39I know, it's 1066.
00:33:42Come to the music room.
00:33:43Urgent.
00:33:44I just remembered, I need to check something.
00:33:47You guys go ahead.
00:33:48Yeah, okay.
00:33:55Help!
00:33:56Is someone there?
00:33:57No.
00:33:57Seriously!
00:33:58This is getting old!
00:34:11Wait.
00:34:13Music room?
00:34:14What?
00:34:16James?
00:34:17Was anybody in here earlier?
00:34:19Just Miss Serena.
00:34:20Said she was waiting for you.
00:34:23Sir?
00:34:25Sir, it's raining!
00:34:27Sir?
00:34:27Sir.
00:34:36Come on, Alice, you're fine.
00:34:40You're not that girl again.
00:34:48Wait, can you remind me one more time?
00:34:50Okay. Rooks move in straight lines. Bishops move diagonally. And knights...
00:34:58The knight's the weird one. Rooks. Straight lines. Bishops. Diagonally. Hello?
00:35:31The text. Are you okay? Are you hurt? I'm okay. I saw the text and I thought... I didn't see
00:35:41the message. Serena took my phone. I didn't know. I'm sorry. I'm okay. You're gonna catch a cold.
00:35:49You're freezing. You didn't have to come. Don't tell me what I have to do.
00:36:19That wasn't a mistake. If that's what you're about to say. I... wasn't going to.
00:36:37You're really bad at this, you know. What? Kissing? Hiding feelings. I don't like that.
00:37:04Dump those Ewok pyjamas. Oh you wish. Seriously. It's a cock block.
00:37:12You kissed me. That's basically consent to everything.
00:37:23Dangerous words Keaton. I might hold you to that.
00:37:36You'll be working in pairs on your comparative essays. The list is on the board.
00:37:42One, two, three, four.
00:37:45Paper planes.
00:37:48Are you okay?
00:37:49Fly me to outer space.
00:37:53That's where I'll see your face.
00:37:58And have you with me.
00:38:03It may seem dark.
00:38:09You're distracting.
00:38:18You're welcome.
00:38:22They're either enemies or secretly married.
00:38:26Honestly?
00:38:28Both.
00:38:28I was sure I'd never find someone to make my head spin around.
00:38:35No one's ever gonna be the thing I need. They all just let me down.
00:38:39But baby, you saved me.
00:38:42Time pen new.
00:38:45Everything's so different now.
00:38:48So, the night goes in an L shape, right?
00:38:52Why is that the only one you remember?
00:38:54Because it's weird.
00:38:56And I like weird.
00:39:06Check.
00:39:12You're cheating.
00:39:14I'm winning.
00:39:15There's a difference.
00:39:16You are very distracting.
00:39:17And you like it.
00:39:29Charles.
00:39:31We need to talk.
00:39:40I expected poor judgement.
00:39:42But this in my house?
00:39:45It isn't what it looks like.
00:39:46No.
00:39:47Kissing a servant's daughter in the family library.
00:39:51Enlighten me then, Charles.
00:39:53We came back tonight after speaking with Serena.
00:39:56Imagine our surprise walking in on this.
00:39:59She isn't just...
00:40:01You have no right to barge in.
00:40:03On my property.
00:40:07I care about her.
00:40:08I'm not ashamed of that.
00:40:10That's enough.
00:40:14Why do you care?
00:40:15We're protecting our son's future.
00:40:18And our name.
00:40:20You think this protects me?
00:40:21We think she does not belong in your world.
00:40:28Then maybe I don't either.
00:40:31You're ready to give up everything.
00:40:33For a girl you barely know.
00:40:35No?
00:40:38Yes.
00:40:40Then...
00:40:40Are you sure...
00:40:42She's ready?
00:40:49I'm asking you.
00:40:50Do you think she's ready?
00:40:52To lose everything regardless of how little that is.
00:40:55Just to be with you.
00:40:56What are you talking about?
00:40:58You left us no choice son.
00:41:00You shouldn't disobey your father.
00:41:04Pelton.
00:41:05It's Frederick Kenwood.
00:41:07Ah, Mr. Kenwood.
00:41:09How can I help?
00:41:10If a scholarship student were to violate our behavioural code
00:41:14in a public setting with photographic evidence,
00:41:17would that warrant a review?
00:41:20Yes, sir.
00:41:24So...
00:41:25Answer me again.
00:41:27Do you think she's ready to lose everything just to be with you?
00:41:42Charles, what happened? Did your parents say something? Are they mad? Is everything okay?
00:41:46Pack your things.
00:41:49You can't stay here anymore.
00:41:51What?
00:41:53My parents fired your mother.
00:41:55She's leaving.
00:41:56So are you.
00:41:57Wait, what, why?
00:41:59Is it because of us?
00:42:00We can fix this. I'll get a job, anything-
00:42:02Stop, stop it. You don't get it.
00:42:05If I don't walk away from this, they'll cut me off.
00:42:08Okay?
00:42:09No card, no trust, no support, nothing.
00:42:14Then...
00:42:15Then we'll figure it out.
00:42:17We don't need all that.
00:42:18We can-
00:42:19Do you really think I'm going to live like that?
00:42:24So that's what this was?
00:42:26Just fun until it got inconvenient.
00:42:30What did they promise you?
00:42:34Nothing.
00:42:38They just reminded me of what's real.
00:42:44Charles, I'm not stupid.
00:42:46You don't just turn into a cold stranger because of one conversation.
00:42:49What did they threaten you with?
00:42:56What did they threaten you with?
00:42:58This is the difference between me and you.
00:43:00What?
00:43:01You think you know me.
00:43:03Or what I have.
00:43:05You don't, Alice.
00:43:07You're still lying.
00:43:08I'm not, Alice.
00:43:10Look around you.
00:43:11This mansion you thought was a museum.
00:43:14It's my house.
00:43:16My world.
00:43:18I was bored into this.
00:43:20I am not choosing between this-
00:43:24And something I picked up for a moment of fun.
00:43:30Don't do this, Charles.
00:43:32You don't mean it.
00:43:33It was fine.
00:43:34But you?
00:43:37You don't compare to what I own.
00:43:41I'll survive the loss.
00:43:44Right.
00:43:47I should have known.
00:43:50Guys like you don't end up with girls like me.
00:43:55You play with them, then you throw them away.
00:43:59Go to sleep, Alice.
00:44:03Don't do this.
00:44:11This fall is little more than I expected.
00:44:17In so deep I can barely see myself.
00:44:23You feel so heavy but depleted...
00:44:30But I find this the place to test myself
00:44:42Oops
00:45:00Oh sorry, didn't see that
00:45:02Then again, nobody does
00:45:04Move, please
00:45:07Try begging
00:45:14You know what, keep it
00:45:20Poor thing, so dramatic
00:45:24Don't
00:45:25Excuse me
00:45:27I warned you
00:45:29Walk away, Serena
00:45:50Last week's group assignments were mostly forgettable
00:45:54But one pair surprised me
00:45:56In a good way
00:45:58Charles Kenwood
00:45:59And Alice Keaton
00:46:01Would you mind giving us her short summary?
00:46:04She loves the sound of her own voice
00:46:05Better have it
00:46:13Our essay explored what happens when two fundamentally different voices meet
00:46:19Like logic and chaos
00:46:21Like logic and chaos
00:46:21Or silence and noise
00:46:23Different worlds, different rules
00:46:28At first glance, they clash
00:46:30But what makes the story interesting is what happens next
00:46:34Confusion, curiosity
00:46:36But in the end, some stories aren't about staying
00:46:40And yes, there is no such thing as a happy ending
00:46:52And yes, there is no such thing as a happy ending
00:46:56Is she still talking about the essay?
00:47:01Miss Keaton
00:47:03Dramatic as always
00:47:05Alright, thank you
00:47:07Are you okay?
00:47:12Dramatic as always
00:47:12Dramatic as always
00:47:13That good literature
00:47:15Always stirs something
00:47:19Hello?
00:47:20Hello?
00:47:20Hi, here's Alice Keaton
00:47:21This is Whitmore Press
00:47:22We've been following your work
00:47:23We'd like to offer you a long-term publishing contract
00:47:26Name your price
00:47:27We'll make it work
00:47:28Sorry, what?
00:47:33That's kind of insane
00:47:36Who's behind this?
00:47:37Your sponsor wishes to remain anonymous
00:47:39Can
00:47:41Can I meet them?
00:47:44I want to
00:47:45Please
00:47:46Or at least tell me a name
00:47:51Sorry, they wish to stay in office
00:47:53So they're only interested in whether it's another person
00:47:55I'd really like to meet them
00:47:57I'm sorry, just keep them
00:47:58Name your name was Burstead
00:47:59I think it's the most generous one we've ever given in the New York City
00:48:03I see
00:48:04Congratulations again
00:48:09You got the interview?
00:48:10It's just an interview, I haven't gotten it yet
00:48:12Still, Alice Keaton at Oxford
00:48:16That's iconic
00:48:25You okay?
00:48:27Yeah
00:48:29It's so exciting
00:48:42It's done, Mr. Kenwood
00:48:43Miss Keaton signed the contract
00:48:47Good
00:48:48It's a generous deal
00:48:49You sure you don't want it to know?
00:48:52No
00:48:53It's better if I stay out of her life
00:48:54No, it's better if I stay out of her life
00:48:56I will be before you
00:49:01I'll be there in your darkest days
00:49:05Congratulations, Alice Keaton
00:49:07Go live the life you were always meant to
00:49:15Your engagement announcement should align perfectly with the Foundation Gala
00:49:20And the Browns already offered to host the London reception
00:49:25It's all coming together beautifully
00:49:31I've lost my appetite
00:49:36I'll go check on him
00:49:42What's your problem, Charles?
00:49:48Disengagement
00:49:49It's not happening
00:49:50It's not up to you, you know that
00:49:52Serena, we're not doing this
00:49:55You've changed
00:49:59Or maybe I finally just stopped pretending
00:50:30You're the sponsor
00:50:32You've been funding Alice Keaton this whole time.
00:50:37So?
00:50:38You lied to everyone, including her.
00:50:41I protected her.
00:50:45You loved her.
00:50:47Still do.
00:50:49Let it go, Serena.
00:50:52There's no point.
00:51:02I need a favour.
00:51:04Find out when the Oxford interview is.
00:51:07And make sure Alice Keaton won't show up.
00:51:14Anything? No?
00:51:16She's not answering.
00:51:18The interview's almost over.
00:51:20Well, she won't just not show up.
00:51:22Something's wrong.
00:51:24Where's Alice?
00:51:26When was the last time you heard from her?
00:51:28Last night.
00:51:29She said she was prepping all evening.
00:51:34James, track someone for me.
00:51:38Wait, where are you going?
00:51:47Chill, okay?
00:51:48It won't hurt you.
00:51:50Yeah, we're just supposed to keep you away from the interview.
00:51:53That's it.
00:52:01Shit!
00:52:02Come back!
00:52:03Fuck!
00:52:35Didn't need a second guess.
00:52:40Hey, hey, hey, Alice.
00:52:42Alice?
00:52:43Alice, hey, hey, hey.
00:52:44Stay with me.
00:52:45Stay with me.
00:52:45Stay with me, Alice.
00:52:46Alice!
00:52:53You're awake.
00:52:55Where...
00:52:56Where am I?
00:52:57Local clinic.
00:52:58Passer-by brought you in.
00:53:01Passer-by?
00:53:02He found you on the side of the road.
00:53:04He had to leave.
00:53:05He didn't leave a name.
00:53:07Oh.
00:53:10The interview!
00:53:11What time is it?
00:53:12Easy.
00:53:13It's okay.
00:53:14Someone already contacted the university.
00:53:16Anne sent in your writing samples.
00:53:18They've rescheduled your interview for tomorrow.
00:53:20Wait, what?
00:53:21Who?
00:53:21No idea.
00:53:23But it's all taken care of.
00:53:27What did you say?
00:53:29Nothing.
00:53:30I just...
00:53:31had a dream.
00:53:43I got in!
00:53:48Oh, I knew it!
00:53:50Too bad Charles isn't here to watch you crush it.
00:53:54He's not here.
00:53:55Oh, you didn't know?
00:53:58Know what?
00:53:59He left.
00:54:01A few days ago, yeah.
00:54:02Everyone doesn't really know where he went.
00:54:04Honestly, Astra's been quieter without him.
00:54:06It's probably for the best.
00:54:08Come on.
00:54:14Alice?
00:54:18The summer I met Charles Kenwood was loud.
00:54:22Chaotic.
00:54:24Unexpected.
00:54:27And with his absence...
00:54:29Come on!
00:54:31It ended quietly.
00:54:35Like summer's always do.
00:54:49And joining us today, the decade's most unexpected literary phenomenon, Alice Keaton.
00:54:55Thank you for having me.
00:54:56Now, your words moved millions.
00:54:59They say your stories feel real, especially the ones about love.
00:55:05Which brings us to the most obvious question.
00:55:07How's your dating life like these days?
00:55:10No comment.
00:55:11A little bird told me that the past four years has been just writing and working, not even a single
00:55:17date.
00:55:18Let me guess, a bird named Sherry.
00:55:19Oh, she caught me!
00:55:20There's still no comment.
00:55:21All right, all right.
00:55:23No matter what you say, you write love like someone who's lived it.
00:55:28If you're so real...
00:55:30Because once, I did.
00:55:31That's why today we're here sharing the story behind Alice Keaton's love.
00:55:36And no one ever quite matched the light after that.
00:55:38And let's give it up for Alice Keaton one more time.
00:55:52Congratulations, Alice.
00:55:53The numbers just came in.
00:55:55You broke your own record.
00:55:58That's...
00:55:58Incredible.
00:56:00We're thinking celebration, press, photos, maybe tonight.
00:56:04Actually...
00:56:04There's something I'd rather do.
00:56:08I'd like to meet with the person who believed in me first.
00:56:12My sponsor.
00:56:14You're sure?
00:56:15Yeah.
00:56:16Just once.
00:56:17Tonight, 7pm.
00:56:29Good evening.
00:56:34Good evening.
00:56:38May I sit?
00:56:48Hi.
00:56:49Hi.
00:56:52You look well.
00:56:56And you look like you just stepped out of a GQ cover.
00:56:59You always did.
00:57:02You were expecting someone else.
00:57:05I was...
00:57:06Hoping.
00:57:08But I guess I always knew.
00:57:10I didn't come here to confuse you.
00:57:13Or to reopen anything.
00:57:16I just wanted to say congratulations.
00:57:23I didn't know you were still reading.
00:57:26You were rich enough not to do so.
00:57:30Always.
00:57:31Either way, your sponsorship started my career, so...
00:57:35No.
00:57:36No, you've...
00:57:37You earned everything.
00:57:41Every word.
00:57:43Every page.
00:57:45Every reader.
00:57:47That's what I came to say.
00:57:53It was good to see you again.
00:57:54I hope.
00:57:55Charles.
00:57:57Can you just...
00:58:00Wait a little longer?
00:58:07I think I knew it was you.
00:58:10There was one email.
00:58:13You said something.
00:58:15It felt familiar.
00:58:16Really?
00:58:17Kind of had that...
00:58:18Rich asshole with a conscience energy.
00:58:21Very on brand.
00:58:23I should have anonymized my grammar.
00:58:25Too late.
00:58:25Your semicolon usage gave you away.
00:58:28Still the only girl I know who flirts through punctuation.
00:58:31Still the only guy I know who uses wilds unironically.
00:58:37You've changed.
00:58:40But...
00:58:41Not really.
00:58:43You haven't changed.
00:58:46But...
00:58:47Maybe you've grown into who you really were.
00:58:51Anyway...
00:58:52I wanted to say...
00:58:57And...
00:58:58Thanks for being here tonight.
00:59:00You didn't have to come.
00:59:02Don't tell me what I have to do.
00:59:07You didn't have to come.
00:59:09Don't tell me what I have to do.
00:59:31If you could go back.
00:59:33If you had the chance to do it all again.
00:59:35Would you do anything differently?
00:59:42No.
00:59:47No.
00:59:52I see.
00:59:56I know my answer right now.
00:59:57I didn't have the power back then.
01:00:00Not enough to protect you.
01:00:02I couldn't watch you get crushed because of me.
01:00:05Because of my name.
01:00:07My family.
01:00:10I didn't want to be the reason you lost everything.
01:00:13So you just disappeared.
01:00:14Without a word.
01:00:18If you had the chance to see the world.
01:00:21Without me weighing you down.
01:00:23If you still chose me after that.
01:00:29You keep saying you wanted to give me a choice.
01:00:32But you made a choice for me.
01:00:36Did it ever cross your mind that maybe...
01:00:41I would have chosen you anyway?
01:00:48I didn't think I was the smart choice.
01:00:51You weren't.
01:00:54But I never claimed to be that smart.
01:01:05This is me.
01:01:06Right.
01:01:14I'm still mad at you, you know.
01:01:18I'm still in love with you, you know.
01:01:28Do you want to come in for a bit?
01:01:32You're asking your ex,
01:01:34who you haven't seen in four years,
01:01:36to come into your hotel
01:01:38at approximately 11pm.
01:01:41You were right.
01:01:43You never were that smart.
01:01:45You don't have to come.
01:01:46So don't tell me what I have to do.
01:01:50It's almost like you say
01:01:52where the space better go.
01:02:03Stop quoting yourself.
01:02:04I recycle.
01:02:05It saves energy.
01:02:08This feels wildly irresponsible.
01:02:10You sound like a disclaimer.
01:02:12You're the one who once called romance a distraction.
01:02:14I said that?
01:02:15Yeah.
01:02:16Before calling Wuthering Heights overrated.
01:02:18Still is.
01:02:20You're lucky you're a good kisser.
01:02:25That is cute to me.
01:02:27Don't you dare quote poetry.
01:02:29I wasn't going to.
01:02:30I forgot all of it the day you left.
01:02:33Then shut up.
01:02:35And prove it.
01:02:41I still can't believe this is happening.
01:02:44I told you
01:02:44that you're the worst enemies
01:02:46or secretly married.
01:02:47And I told you
01:02:47they're both.
01:03:02It's enough to let folks
01:03:04let it be.
01:03:15I vow to always
01:03:16tell you the truth
01:03:18except for when you ask
01:03:19how your cooking was
01:03:20then I lie
01:03:23respectfully.
01:03:25I vow to keep choosing you
01:03:28loudly
01:03:29quietly
01:03:31always
01:03:33even when you forget to do the laundry.
01:03:45I vow to argue with you
01:03:46at least twice a week
01:03:47especially over Shakespeare.
01:03:50I vow to write you
01:03:51and your every story
01:03:53even when I say I didn't
01:03:55you will always be part of my life.
