00:00:00Father, what's the meaning of this?
00:00:24How could you do this to me?
00:00:26Well, good morning, Emmeline.
00:00:27I see you're in a great mood again.
00:00:28After everything I've done for you, the family, the company, this is how you reward me?
00:00:33Calm down and let me know what you're saying.
00:00:36Oh, so you're going to deny it?
00:00:37Denying what? I still have no idea what you're talking about.
00:00:40The rumors going around the company that you're stepping down in three months and you've already named Jonas your successor.
00:00:45So that's what this drama is about?
00:00:46Yes.
00:00:47Yeah, it's true.
00:00:49That's ridiculous. Jonas can't take care of himself, let alone a whole company.
00:00:52I mean, all he does is spend his money on partying and women and I'm the one who actually does the work.
00:00:57Yes, and that's why you're the chief operating officer.
00:01:00Look, I need you with your skill set in that role so that you can support your brother so that he too can succeed.
00:01:06Well, what if I make you an offer? One you can't refuse?
00:01:11I'm listening.
00:01:17I'm listening. Have a seat.
00:01:19Father, I am certain this is an offer you're going to appreciate.
00:01:26An offer I'm going to appreciate?
00:01:28You're getting married. Great, because we both know you're not getting any younger.
00:01:32What? No, I'm talking about a business proposal, not a marriage.
00:01:36Oh, okay. Well, what's your business proposal?
00:01:38Okay. So, what if I could secure a partnership with the Anderson Corporation?
00:01:45The Anderson Corporation? I've been trying to land that account for 10 years. It's impossible. It can't be done.
00:01:51I have my ways, Father. I just need you to trust me.
00:01:55Hmm. If it was anybody else, I would say, no. But you're my daughter, and I trust you.
00:02:04But, just to let you know, I am going to be publicly announcing my retirement in three months.
00:02:10So you have three months to change my mind.
00:02:13Um, thank you, but I was hoping just to have a little more time-
00:02:17Three months and not a day more.
00:02:25Fucking hell. I just don't get it. I have sent out a million proposals at this point, and I still have no response.
00:02:45Mail for Mr. Baleen Kestrel?
00:02:53Yes. Thank you.
00:03:03Yes, who is it?
00:03:05Oh, yes, Cynthia. What do you want?
00:03:07Um, I've got mail from the Anderson Corporation.
00:03:10I think they finally responded.
00:03:11What'd they say?
00:03:12Oh, I don't know. It's sealed.
00:03:13Don't just stand there. Read to me.
00:03:24Oh, my God.
00:03:25This is for Mr. X himself.
00:03:27He's asked me to come meet him at his private residence to discuss the terms of the contract.
00:03:32Oh, my God. It's great news.
00:03:34I'll cancel the rest of your appointments for the afternoon.
00:03:37No. No, I don't think that'll be necessary.
00:03:40Why not?
00:03:41I'm not going.
00:03:43What do you mean you're not going?
00:03:52This is the big break you've been waiting for.
00:03:54I know. I know, but does something about this seem off to you?
00:03:59Off? What do you mean off?
00:04:02You've sent out a million proposals, and now suddenly we get a response from Mr. X himself?
00:04:08I guess so, Ms. Castro, but what do you have to lose?
00:04:11Honestly, you've been waiting for this.
00:04:14Might as well.
00:04:15Oh.
00:04:24Hey, you. Gardner.
00:04:35I'm here to meet Mr. X. Am I in the right place?
00:04:38Do I know you from somewhere?
00:04:44Yes, I imagine you do.
00:04:46I'm-
00:04:46Unimportant.
00:04:47I'm here to meet Mr. X.
00:04:49Is this the place?
00:04:52He's waiting for you.
00:04:53Just through that door and down the hall.
00:04:55I'm here to meet Mr. X. Am I here to meet Mr. X. Am I here to meet Mr. X. Am I here to meet Mr. X. Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet Mr. X? Am I here to meet
00:05:25I don't know what kind of a sick game you're playing, but you should go back outside and
00:05:54keep raking up leaves. I don't think your boss would be too happy with you wearing his clothes
00:05:58and sitting on his expensive couch. You still don't remember me, do you? Remember you?
00:06:18No way. You're Jeff? In the flesh. You look like you've seen a ghost.
00:06:24You haven't answered my question. What's going on here?
00:06:29Well, you arranged a meeting with Mr. X, so here we are. I imagine this is all a little
00:06:34much for you to take in.
00:06:38This doesn't make any sense. I just saw you outside pruning plants and now you're giving
00:06:46me a glass of whiskey. Is this a prank? Are there cameras?
00:06:50Cameras. Cameras. I don't much care for intrusive technology, and I don't think it's a crime
00:06:57for a man to tend his own garden. I get a lot of satisfaction from doing it myself. It's
00:07:03therapeutic.
00:07:04So what you're trying to tell me is-
00:07:06I'm Mr. X. I'm the one you came here to see. Now shall we dispense with the charades and get
00:07:13down to business, or would you care to be hysterical for a few more minutes?
00:07:16Bullshit. You're lying. Are you just admit it and stop playing games?
00:07:21You don't have to believe me. I'm not trying to convince you. The door's still open. You're
00:07:25welcome to leave.
00:07:26I've got to say, this looks really good. One of the best proposals I've read in a while,
00:07:40in fact. I guess all the media I say about you is true.
00:07:44But the figures we're looking at here run to the billions of dollars. Are you sure you
00:07:49can manage such resources?
00:07:51But I have a detailed project plan, and I-
00:07:54I've looked at your plan, and I've had my team go through it as well. The simple truth
00:08:01is your company does not have the resources to manage such a large project, on paper at
00:08:06least. Your father has consecutively been turned down over 30 times in the past 10 years
00:08:10for this reason alone. What makes you think we'd accept your company's offer this time?
00:08:14You've been rejected so many times before.
00:08:16You had all that information, and you've still invited me here. So that begs the question,
00:08:22what am I really doing here?
00:08:24Oh, Emma. You're always as intelligent as you are beautiful.
00:08:30Don't patronize me.
00:08:32Alright. I won't waste your time. I brought you here to make you an offer. One that could
00:08:38help you secure what you came for.
00:08:40Help me secure what I came for. You mean the contract.
00:08:50Did you come for something else?
00:08:52No. I just want to make sure we're on the same page. So what's the offer?
00:08:57Take it. Open.
00:09:02What is this supposed to be?
00:09:07You're a smart one, Emma. I'm sure you can be with our baby.
00:09:11This is a marriage contract. Between you and me. Contractual terms of the marriage outlined
00:09:19in detail. Contract set to expire in three months. What makes you think I would ever,
00:09:25in a million years, accept something as bizarre as this? You think I would willingly sell myself
00:09:30into servitude just for a contract? Let's not play games, Emma. I feel they're
00:09:35a waste of time and I don't have much of it to spare. I'm guessing the same is true for you.
00:09:40I know the reason you're here. Or dare I say the motive behind your actions.
00:09:46What motives could that possibly be?
00:09:48Oh, I don't know. The fact that your father is publicly resigning from his position as CEO
00:09:53in three months. Or that he's naming someone who is not you as his successor.
00:09:58So, you thought that securing a massive contract like the Anderson Corporation could change his mind
00:10:06and finally give you the recognition you feel you deserve? Let me know if I missed something.
00:10:13How could you possibly know all this? Down to such detail.
00:10:21In this line of business, information is key. And I always have my way of getting the information I want.
00:10:28But, so you've been spying on me. I should get a restraining order against you.
00:10:33I wouldn't call it spying when your family's business is always on the news. It's just simple deduction, putting two and two together.
00:10:39And how exactly do you plan to get a restraining order against a man who doesn't exist?
00:10:46Who are you talking about? I know you. You're sitting right in front of me.
00:10:51What do you really know about me? Besides the fact that my name might be Jeff?
00:10:56Might be.
00:10:58The world knows me as Mr. X. You have a name and a face, but little else.
00:11:02I drove here, remember? I know where you live.
00:11:05I have a dozen homes across the state, none of which are in my name.
00:11:11But I think we're getting a little off topic here.
00:11:14You have a contract in front of you that can make all of your dreams come true.
00:11:18The question is, do you have the balls to take it?
00:11:22Of course, you could walk away, turn it down, and none of this will have happened.
00:11:30But remember, this is a one-time offer. So, decide.
00:11:39Can I at least take some time to go through it carefully and then make a decision?
00:11:45Smart woman. I'll give you three days to decide. After which, the contract will be withdrawn.
00:11:55And nobody is to know about our little arrangement. Is that clear?
00:11:59Yes.
00:12:00Goddammit. This asshole must have to be out of his goddamn mind. He wants to turn me into a slave. And for what?
00:12:13Are you hiding something from your baby sister?
00:12:16Hiding? I don't need to hide anything from you. You're always too intoxicated to see clearly anyway.
00:12:22Oh, Emma. You never miss an opportunity to have a go at me, do you? It's bad enough I always have pops on my back.
00:12:28On your back? You're clearly his favorite. I mean, he gives you everything on a gulp platter and you just take it for granted.
00:12:35You think you have everything figured out, don't you? When in truth, you're just a scared little girl running around seeking validation from her daddy.
00:12:43What are you doing here, Jonas? I know you didn't just come to say hi. I have a lot to get done today.
00:12:49What? I can't just come check up on my little sister? You haven't even offered me a seat yet. Now that's not very nice.
00:12:55Sorry. I just have a lot going on. Have a seat.
00:13:07This is a nice office you have here. But, uh, remind me to give you a raise when I finally take over.
00:13:13Now, can you please tell me why you're here?
00:13:16Get down to business, you mean?
00:13:19Well, I'd like you to tell father that you're no longer interested in the position of CEO and that you would gladly let me take the lead as your big brother.
00:13:35And why the hell would I want to do that?
00:13:37Maybe because I asked nicely? With a cute little smile on my face? I could do a sad face if you like.
00:13:44This is ridiculous. I don't have time for this. I have work to do. I don't have time for your games.
00:13:49Or maybe you don't have a shot at winning. And you might get yourself hurt.
00:13:53Is that a threat, big brother?
00:13:56A threat? I'm just trying to look out for you, kiddo. Politics can be a dirty game.
00:14:02Well, thank you so much for your concern, Jonas. I really appreciate it. But I've made up my mind. I'm not chickening out.
00:14:09You've always had a hard time listening to simple instructions, haven't you?
00:14:15See, here's what bothers me. Why do you even want it, anyway?
00:14:21I mean, you barely have enough time for yourself, let alone running the day-to-day operations of a huge company like this.
00:14:27And even if I'm CEO, you'll still have plenty of money to fund your extravagant lifestyle. So why do you want it?
00:14:36You know what? You're right. I don't have time to manage any of this. Which is why I want to make you second in command.
00:14:43You'll get to manage all the day-to-day operations and make the big decisions.
00:14:47You'll basically be the one in charge, and I'll just be the pretty face of the company. How's that sound?
00:14:53You're out of your mind, Jonas.
00:14:57So, let me get this straight. You want me to do all the work around here, and you just get to take the credit?
00:15:05Would that be too much to ask of my little sister?
00:15:08I don't know what delusional world you're living in, but you need to wake up. Because that's never gonna happen, Jonas.
00:15:14Let me ask you this. How do you envision this will end? You think I'd stand idly by while you take my fucking birthright?
00:15:23Well, when last I checked, we both had the same last name. I don't remember when that right was conferred to you.
00:15:29You think Father will entertain this sick fantasy of yours? Just like when you were kids, he wants to just see you get tired out before he comes to console you.
00:15:38I'm just trying to save you from all that stress.
00:15:41Again, thank you for your concern, brother. It's deeply appreciated. But I'll have to pass on your offer.
00:15:48Fine. If you won't hear the voice of reason, so be it. But don't come crying to me when things get ugly.
00:15:56Dare I ask, is that a threat I detect, brother? It's not a very nice way to talk to your little sister, is it?
00:16:02You know, you're lucky I-
00:16:04Emma, you asked me to remind you of, um...
00:16:07Sorry, I didn't realize you.
00:16:09Alright, Cynthia, my brother here was just leaving.
00:16:13This isn't over, little sister. I'll be back.
00:16:17You had something for me?
00:16:30Oh, yeah. Your, um, three o'clock appointment. You told me to remind you when our client is here. I tried to buzz you, but you didn't answer.
00:16:38Sorry, Cynthia. I guess I was just a bit distracted.
00:16:41Um, can we reschedule that meeting for later in the week? I'm just not in the right frame of mind right now.
00:16:47I'm sorry to hear that. Is it anything to do with you-know-who?
00:16:50My brother's just being his usual self. He's usually pretty hard to understand. Guess you can't choose your family, can you?
00:16:57Tell me about it. I also have an insufferable brother who doesn't look as good in those chains.
00:17:04What was that?
00:17:05Oh, um, nothing. Could I get you a coffee or a cold drink?
00:17:10Oh, you're sweet. Uh, but no, it's alright, Cynthia. I think I just need to be alone with my thoughts.
00:17:17Oh, yes. Alright. Um, well, I will take care of the meeting and I will get out of your hair. If you need anything, let me know.
00:17:26Father! We need to talk.
00:17:41Clearly you've forgotten your manners and how to knock on a door.
00:17:44Forgive me, Father. I just felt the matter was too urgent. Standing around knocking on doors felt like a waste of time.
00:17:51Right. But what is the matter and why do you smell like a sewer rat?
00:17:56I've just been working hard all day, Father.
00:17:59Working hard inside a bar? Look, I don't have time for this. What do you want?
00:18:03It's funny how nobody around here ever seems to have time when I'm around.
00:18:07It's like I'm some disease that you all want to keep at arm's length.
00:18:10Jonas, you're a grown man. Stop carrying on like a child and tell me what it is that you want.
00:18:18I'd like to know why do you insist on giving Emma the false hope that she could actually take my birthright?
00:18:24Seems pretty cruel, even by your standards.
00:18:27I'll have you know she has every opportunity to succeed in running this company. If she lands the deal, I will honor my promise and hand over the reins.
00:18:36No.
00:18:40You can't do that. You can't do that. Oh, can't I? Just watch me.
00:18:51You can't do this. It's not fair. You can't do this.
00:18:58Wade, you're just trying to teach me a lesson, aren't you? To show me the error of my ways.
00:19:05Well, lesson learned. You didn't have to go this far.
00:19:10Jonas, come and sit down and we'll talk about this man to man.
00:19:14Castro Enterprises is a family business that has been passed down from generation to generation.
00:19:29It was my grandfather's and he passed it down to my father. My father then passed it down to me.
00:19:34But I had to earn it. He didn't just give it over. I had to work my butt off to prove myself to him and earn his respect.
00:19:40Just like your sister has done every single day. But what are you doing? All you are doing is spending our fortune every nickel, penny and dime.
00:19:49I mean, that was a $500,000 bill just on champagne alone. What are you spending that kind of money on booze for? Are you opening a winery?
00:19:58Jonas, I need you. I need you to start earning my respect and my trust, not squandering our fortune.
00:20:07Father, are you okay? I'm fine. Worry more about your own reputation rather than my health.
00:20:14You know what, Father? You're right. I'll do just that. Thank you for setting me on the right path. As always, I won't disappoint you. I promise.
00:20:37Who is it? Miss Castor, I have you a coffee with two sugars. You're the best. And I told you, you don't need to be so formal with me.
00:20:50Oh, yes. Sorry. I keep forgetting. Bring me that coffee. No worries, Emma. Oh, I forgot to ask you, how do things go with Mr. X? He's obviously not a serial killer.
00:21:03No. He was something worse. He's a psychopath.
00:21:07I'm sorry to hear that. So does that mean you're not going to go ahead with the project?
00:21:11Sorry. One second. Who could this be?
00:21:16Mr. X sends a message. Time's up.
00:21:22Who is it? Is everything okay? Speak of the devil.
00:21:27Oh.
00:21:33How do you ever expect me to sign this? Do you really think I'm that desperate?
00:21:50I have to be very careful. Even one excess drop could kill her.
00:22:01There. Dumb.
00:22:06And what were you saying, my dear?
00:22:09First of all, I am not your dear. And second of all, do you really expect me to sign this? It's like selling myself into slavery.
00:22:16Are you listening to me? Is this a joke to you?
00:22:21I can hear you. And yelling is not going to help me hear you any better.
00:22:26Yes, that contract in front of you is the equivalent of selling yourself into slavery.
00:22:31Because I will own you for the duration.
00:22:33But you're under no obligation to sign it.
00:22:36You could walk out of here right now and nobody would stop you.
00:22:40So, the fact of the matter remains. You have a decision to make.
00:22:50Fox Dick.
00:22:59Fine. I'll do it.
00:23:01Fantastic. I knew you had it in you.
00:23:05But, can I just make one request?
00:23:08A request?
00:23:11I don't know if I'll like this. But go on.
00:23:14Well, the contract stipulates that I have to publicly agree to be marrying a common gardener, not Mr. X.
00:23:22Yes, I remember putting that in. What about it?
00:23:25Well, just if you could give me some time to convince him.
00:23:29He's stubborn, but I think I can bring him around eventually.
00:23:33This could be problematic.
00:23:37But I'll grant it.
00:23:39You have 14 days to convince your father.
00:23:42But no other requests will be granted.
00:23:47Now, shall we proceed?
00:23:52What do you get out of this anyway? Is it some kind of payback or revenge or just a sick thrill?
00:24:07I guess you'll never know.
00:24:11Maybe one day I'll tell you.
00:24:22It's done. Are you happy now?
00:24:38Happy? This is a mutually beneficial arrangement. So don't act like you just did me a favor.
00:24:45Here. Let me give you a hand with that.
00:24:47I can do it myself. Thank you.
00:24:50You're just about done.
00:24:58There.
00:25:00I need to change my clothes. Can you at least turn around and close your eyes or something?
00:25:05I could. But I think we need to start getting comfortable with each other sooner rather than later.
00:25:09We're a happily married couple now, remember?
00:25:11It says so right on the certificate.
00:25:14But I guess...
00:25:17We don't have to get comfortable right now.
00:25:20I promise I won't stare.
00:25:27Is this the part where you forced me to sleep with you to consummate our fake marriage?
00:25:31I did not force you to do anything.
00:25:33But if I wish for you to fulfill your marital obligations, I would expect you to do so with a smile on your face.
00:25:43Do we have an understanding?
00:25:55Someday we are gonna be together.
00:25:57If you don't have an appointment, please sit down and I'll be with you shortly.
00:26:12I don't think I need an appointment.
00:26:14I pretty much own the company.
00:26:15I am so sorry, Mr. Castro. I didn't see you walk in.
00:26:20It's okay, sweetheart.
00:26:22Have you seen my sister around? I've been trying to get a hold of her.
00:26:25Um, no, but I can write down something for you and I can get it to her.
00:26:31No, it's fine.
00:26:33I prefer to have my meetings face to face, if you know what I mean.
00:26:37Just let me know when she comes by, okay?
00:26:39Yes, of course.
00:26:40You're Emma's personal assistant, right?
00:26:45So, you know a lot about the things that go on around here, right?
00:26:51I mean, I do her schedules, I write her meetings, I get her coffee, I write her proposals while I draft him, and then I also...
00:27:01I run around all day making sure...
00:27:04I am so sorry, Mr. Castro. I kind of start blabbing and then I can't stop and then it just...
00:27:09It's okay, sweetheart. You know, I do have a thing for intelligent women.
00:27:16Why don't I take you on a date?
00:27:19I'll take that as a yes.
00:27:22I'll call you.
00:27:24And remember, my sister can't know about this.
00:27:29I'm sorry.
00:27:31I'm sorry.
00:27:39Emma, where have you been? I haven't seen you in two days. Are you okay?
00:27:54You look terrible, no offense.
00:27:56Yeah, sorry. I just had a lot going on, that's all.
00:27:59Yeah, yeah, of course. Do you care to tell me?
00:28:03Right, close the door.
00:28:04Yeah, close.
00:28:09Alright, what I'm about to say...
00:28:14It has to stay between you and me, okay? It needs to be confidential.
00:28:18Yes, yes, of course, you can trust me.
00:28:20I know. Sometimes I feel like you're the only one I can trust.
00:28:23So, the last two days I was away, I got married and kind of signed my life away.
00:28:28Oh my god. I have so many questions.
00:28:34I bet. Let's hear them.
00:28:36Well, who did you get married to? Um, where did you get married? How?
00:28:43All I can say is I've married a gardener.
00:28:48And I even have a marriage contract to prove it.
00:28:50I'm supposed to make an announcement in two weeks' time, but no one can know until I've had a chance to speak with my father first.
00:28:55Yes, of course. Do you think he's going to approve? I don't think he is.
00:29:01Tell me about it.
00:29:03So what else happened when I was away?
00:29:06Not much.
00:29:08Really, just your brother came in?
00:29:10Jonas was here?
00:29:11Yeah.
00:29:12He's always up to something.
00:29:14Did he say something to you?
00:29:15No, he didn't say anything to me.
00:29:17Well, out with it already. Did he do or say something while I was away?
00:29:26No, no. He pretty much just told me to let you know that he dropped by. That was it.
00:29:33Are you okay?
00:29:34Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Um, did you want me to call him for you? I can let him know and maybe leave a note and he could-
00:29:43No, it's fine. I'm seeing him tonight for a family dinner, so whatever he has to say to me, he can say it then.
00:29:50Okay.
00:29:51You look as ravishing as ever, little sister.
00:30:20as ever, little sister.
00:30:22Did you do something with your hair?
00:30:24No, it's the same as when you saw it last time.
00:30:27But you look a little less drunk than usual.
00:30:30That's an improvement.
00:30:32Darling sister, might you by any chance
00:30:34be implying in front of father that I'm an alcoholic?
00:30:38Now that wouldn't be very nice, would it?
00:30:39I'm certainly not implying you're a workaholic,
00:30:41that's for sure.
00:30:42Enough!
00:30:43Can't we just have one meal in peace, please?
00:30:47Sorry, father.
00:30:50Father, if I were to tell you I'm getting married to a man,
00:31:00how would you feel about that?
00:31:02Well, that would be wonderful news.
00:31:04The best news I've heard in a long, long time.
00:31:07So, who is this mystery man?
00:31:10Well, don't get too excited, it's just a hypothetical question.
00:31:22You really had me going there for a second.
00:31:28I almost took you seriously.
00:31:30What dude would want to get married to boring old you?
00:31:33What did you just say to me?
00:31:35Father, did you hear what he just called me?
00:31:37Sure, go running to daddy.
00:31:40Maybe he'll tuck you in and rock you to sleep too.
00:31:43You're out of line, Jonas.
00:31:45Then why don't you put me in line, Emma?
00:31:47Or do you need daddy's help to do that too?
00:31:49No, I don't need anybody's help.
00:31:50Enough!
00:31:51Enough!
00:31:52Seriously, why must you always be in each other's throats?
00:31:54Emma, put the knife away.
00:31:55Jonas, you're excused from the table.
00:31:58Of course you'd take her side.
00:32:00I don't know why I'd bother coming to these dinners anyway.
00:32:07Sorry about that, Father.
00:32:09That's alright.
00:32:10Now, you were going to tell me about your hypothetical husband.
00:32:14Oh, um, yes.
00:32:17Yes, Father.
00:32:19What does your hypothetical husband do?
00:32:22He's, um...
00:32:24It's okay, you can tell me.
00:32:25Is he an entrepreneur or a business owner?
00:32:28Uh, no.
00:32:29Well, you see, he's, um...
00:32:32A gardener.
00:32:34A what?
00:32:41He's a gardener.
00:32:51Why are we laughing, Father?
00:32:53Your joke.
00:32:54It was hilarious.
00:32:55It's the funniest thing I've heard in a long time.
00:32:57Oh!
00:32:58Well, you know me.
00:32:59I'm always trying to make you laugh.
00:33:01Yes.
00:33:02And I just...
00:33:03I just wish your mother would have been here to hear it as well.
00:33:06She would have just laughed her head off.
00:33:08So...
00:33:10What is it you really wanted to talk to me about?
00:33:13Oh, um...
00:33:14Just that I've opened talks with the Anderson Corporation and, um, they seem quite receptive.
00:33:20So, I think it's only a matter of weeks before the deal is sealed.
00:33:23Well, that is wonderful news.
00:33:25I'm very proud of you.
00:33:26You know, I actually thought this was an impossible undertaking.
00:33:29But, you're doing it with exceptional ease.
00:33:32Clearly the apple hasn't fallen far from the tree.
00:33:35Thank you, Father.
00:33:36I learned from the best.
00:33:38Well, I would like to know, how did you manage to pull this off?
00:33:44Well, um...
00:33:46I was able to negotiate a mutually beneficial deal and show them how to increase profits
00:33:52and it was smooth sailing from there.
00:33:54Very impressive.
00:33:55You are clearly going to make an outstanding CEO.
00:34:00Thank you, Father.
00:34:22Cynthia Darling, this is Jonas. How are you?
00:34:24Yeah, I'm good.
00:34:25I was just calling to see if you were free tonight for that date we were talking about.
00:34:30I can pick you up after work.
00:34:32Perfect.
00:34:33Hey, I could really use your help in grabbing a file from my sister's office.
00:34:38Could you be a sweetheart and do that for me?
00:34:40Wow, perfect. You're the best.
00:34:43I'll see you soon.
00:34:45Alright, bye.
00:34:54Are you alright? You seem a lot quieter than usual tonight.
00:35:05Why do you even care?
00:35:08I still don't understand the point of this marriage. I mean, you haven't even touched me, let alone looked at me since we've been sleeping in the same bed.
00:35:19We hardly ever talk. I mean, what is your deal?
00:35:26What is your deal?
00:35:30Touch me?
00:35:31I could have you any time, anywhere I choose.
00:35:43I've just chosen not to exercise that right.
00:35:45Right, because you feel you own me?
00:35:48Well, the contract says I do.
00:35:51So why have you chosen not to?
00:35:54Because I'm not that kind of person.
00:35:57What kind of person are you? I mean, it's like you don't even exist.
00:36:02I do exist.
00:36:05You just don't know who I am.
00:36:08The only person I've ever wanted to genuinely see the real me.
00:36:13But you were too blinded by my poverty to see anything else.
00:36:17What, and you think subjugating me will change that?
00:36:21I thought I was just doing this for revenge.
00:36:24God, you're so annoying.
00:36:26Why can't anything with you just be simple and straightforward?
00:36:29You might want to save that loud voice of yours.
00:36:33I think I finally decided to exercise my rights.
00:36:42I think I finally decided to exercise my rights.
00:36:46No, stay away from me.
00:36:47Don't touch me or I will scream.
00:36:50Scream? For who?
00:36:53The police? Miles away.
00:36:55And what would you tell them anyway?
00:36:58That your husband wanted to touch you?
00:37:00I mean it. Don't come any closer!
00:37:03Relax.
00:37:05I don't want to touch you.
00:37:08I just meant I want to hear what's bothering you.
00:37:12If you'll share it with me, of course.
00:37:15But now I'm supposed to believe you care about me after all the games you've been playing?
00:37:19I haven't given you any reason to distrust me. Why would I start now?
00:37:24God, I've ever been so confused in my life.
00:37:29Okay, fine.
00:37:31Look, I tried talking to my father about the idea of me marrying a gardener and he just laughed like it was a joke.
00:37:40I can't even imagine what his reaction would be if it came out in the news.
00:37:45He'd probably disown me.
00:37:47Hmm.
00:37:49Well, I can't do anything about your father.
00:37:52But I can give you another two weeks to try to convince him.
00:37:56But the contract won't change.
00:37:58Thank you, but why would you do that?
00:38:01I have my reasons.
00:38:04Maybe someday soon everything will make sense.
00:38:10What is taking this bitch so long?
00:38:21Got other shit to do.
00:38:22Okay.
00:38:47Okay.

00:51:29you are obligated to report all findings and dealings to the company head
00:51:33yet after looking through all of your files i can't seem to find anything on the anderson corporation
00:51:40why is that
00:51:42why do you ask your question
00:51:44that is when your account is up to a company and having a search and a search and a search?
00:51:49to the company head
00:51:51to the company head
00:51:53oh my god
00:51:55Why is that?
00:51:57Why do you want the details of the deal?
00:51:59So you can steal my client again like you did last time?
00:52:02Come on, Emma. Don't be petty.
00:52:05I finalized a contract that was sitting on your desk for weeks.
00:52:08It's all in the company's best interest.
00:52:11Company's best interest? Or your best interest, Jonas?
00:52:14Well, I am currently the Chief Executive Officer,
00:52:18so my interest is the company's best interest.
00:52:22Of course, you never did tell me how you got the details of the contract in the first place.
00:52:28I never pegged you as someone who was scurrying around like a rat.
00:52:32I don't scurry it. I have people for that.
00:52:35It's the mark of a true leader.
00:52:37You know, you could really learn a thing or two from me, Emma.
00:52:39I knew it. I knew you had someone on the inside.
00:52:43Wait. That means that someone's...
00:52:48That fucking bitch!
00:52:52Emma, good. It's Miss Castro to you. Going somewhere?
00:53:05Um, yes. I have something to tell you that...
00:53:08Meaning to tell me what exactly? That you're a liar?
00:53:11A backstabber? That you've been conniving with my brother behind my back?
00:53:14What exactly were you meaning to tell me?
00:53:16Emma, I know it looks bad, but I never lied about any...
00:53:19Don't lie to me. Have some dignity. I trusted you and you betrayed me.
00:53:27I hardly think this is appropriate workplace behavior, little sister.
00:53:31I could have you sanctioned for assaulting my personal assistant.
00:53:34Your personal assistant. So that's what this is. You sold me out.
00:53:40Cynthia, darling. Wait for me in my office. I'll be with you shortly.
00:53:45Emma, it wasn't meant to be like this. I'm sorry.
00:53:51As CEO, I'm responsible for the well-being of all my employees. I'm sure you understand.
00:54:06Interim CEO. Let's see how long you can hold onto that position once father recovers, sweet brother.
00:54:12Oh, Emma. I plan to hold onto this position for a very, very long time.
00:54:21Hey. I really wanted to apologize for the way I treated you and that I doubted you.
00:54:38And I shouldn't have broken your plan. That was a stupid thing to do.
00:54:44I never thought I'd see the day that Emily and Castro would apologize.
00:54:48Well, don't get used to it. It's not going to happen again.
00:54:54Actually, scratch that. I think, I think it will happen more often.
00:55:00Okay. I know I haven't been the best fake wife to you, but you've been good to me.
00:55:06And you've been kind and patient and you didn't try and force yourself on me when you could have.
00:55:11Emma, you don't have to.
00:55:13No, please. Just let me finish, okay? This is really hard for me to say.
00:55:18But I also want to apologize for how I've treated you in the past.
00:55:22I've been self-centered and egocentric and I'm sorry.
00:55:28It's okay, Emma. And just so you know, this isn't about revenge.
00:55:33What is it about? I mean, what do you stand to gain from this contract?
00:55:37I can't tell you. Not yet.
00:55:40I figured.
00:55:42Well, can you at least show me what you're painting?
00:55:45I never knew you were an artist.
00:55:47Hmm. There's a lot you don't know about me.
00:55:50I bet.
00:55:52So, can I see it?
00:55:53Want to come see?
00:56:00But, but why?
00:56:07It's beautiful. But why would you paint a picture of me?
00:56:13Well, I don't recall it being a crime to paint a picture of a beautiful and fascinating woman.
00:56:20Well, maybe I can see it when it's finished.
00:56:24Maybe. We'll see.
00:56:27Emma, I know you just, you didn't come all this way to apologize.
00:56:39And I know that look on your face.
00:56:42What's going on?
00:56:44So now you can read my emotions and know when something's wrong?
00:56:48Well, I think I've always been able to do that with you.
00:56:50You pat your lips every time you're worried.
00:56:55I also know that your father's fallen ill.
00:56:59And that your brother's taking control of the company.
00:57:01Well, how do you know that? That hasn't even gone public yet.
00:57:05I have my ways.
00:57:07And I always keep a close eye on my assets.
00:57:10The question is, what are you going to do?
00:57:12At this stage, I don't know.
00:57:17My father said the only way he'd even entertain the idea of me getting married to a gardener is if he met the man first.
00:57:25But I know the contract I signed says that I can't do that, so I guess you could say I'm out of options.
00:57:31Hmm.
00:57:36That is a precarious situation.
00:57:39And it would void the contract.
00:57:41But I'll do it.
00:57:46What?
00:57:48What did you just say?
00:57:50I said I'll do it.
00:57:52I'll go with you to see your father.
00:57:54But why would you do that? That doesn't make any sense.
00:57:57All I can say is that in this respect, our goals are aligned.
00:58:01Oh, goals align? What goals are you talking about, Jeff? I... What goals?
00:58:07Don't worry about that now.
00:58:09Everything will make sense soon.
00:58:11We can go right now if you'd like. I'll grab my coat.
00:58:15I...
00:58:16I...
00:58:17I...
00:58:18I...
00:58:19Cynthia, darling. Why the long face? We should be celebrating my victory, not sulking.
00:58:23I should have never helped you.
00:58:24Your sister hates me because she thinks I betrayed her. And rightfully so. I didn't realize you were going to use that information against her and if I did I wouldn't have helped you. All you care about is yourself.
00:58:29I think you've been well compensated for your efforts. A salary bump, a triple promotion. I'd expect you to be more grateful.
00:58:30I'm sorry, I'm grateful. But what's going to happen when your dad wakes up, hmm? Is it going to be the same?
00:58:31Who says my father's going to be the same?
00:58:32Who says my father's going to be the same?
00:58:33Who says my father's going to be coming?
00:58:34I'm sorry, I'm grateful. I'm sorry. I'm grateful. But what's going to happen when your dad wakes up, hmm? Is it going to be the same?
00:58:38I didn't realize you were going to use that information against her, and if I did, I wouldn't have helped you.
00:58:43All you care about is yourself.
00:58:45I think you've been well compensated for your efforts.
00:58:48A salary bump, a triple promotion.
00:58:51I'd expect you to be more grateful.
00:58:53I'm sorry, I'm grateful, but what's going to happen when your dad wakes up?
00:58:58Is it going to be the same?
00:59:00Who says my father's going to recover?
00:59:08What do you mean by that?
00:59:12Everyone keeps going on and on about how my father's going to recover and all the things that will happen,
00:59:16but my father has a very serious illness, and he might not recover, and that's just a fact.
00:59:22How could you say that about your own father?
00:59:25I don't think I've said anything out of place.
00:59:27My father is very sick, and he might be in bed for a very long time.
00:59:31And I'm sure that would definitely suit your agenda, wouldn't it?
00:59:35Are you accusing me of something?
00:59:36No, Jonah, I'm not accusing you of anything.
00:59:39I just think I chose the wrong side.
00:59:41And what side is that?
00:59:43Look, you're not the man that I thought you were.
00:59:46I heard stories, but I didn't think they were true, but clearly they are.
00:59:52And what stories are those?
00:59:55Tell me the tales of Jonas Castro.
00:59:57Jonas Castro?
00:59:58Well, Jonas Castro loves himself.
01:00:01He's an alcoholic.
01:00:02He's a womanizer.
01:00:03He's just pure evil.
01:00:07That's who Jonas Castro is.
01:00:08Look, I can't do this.
01:00:14I'm leaving.
01:00:17Where the fuck do you think you're going?
01:00:21Seems you've forgotten your place.
01:00:24Maybe it's time I reminded you.
01:00:28Please, let go.
01:00:31Jonas.
01:00:31You really think you can say whatever the fuck you want and get away with it?
01:00:35Look, I think you're drunk.
01:00:37And I think you just need to get off me, please.
01:00:40Let me remind you, you were just a pawn in all of this.
01:00:43Before I came into your life, you were nothing.
01:00:45Please.
01:00:46Please, I'm sorry.
01:00:48Just, I'll forget about it and we can go.
01:00:50No, no, no, no.
01:00:51Please.
01:00:52I think I need to teach you a lesson.
01:00:54And I'll never forget.
01:01:00You seem pretty confident.
01:01:02I guess you've done a lot of stuff like this before.
01:01:05Not really.
01:01:06Any advice on approaching your father?
01:01:09Well, he already doesn't like you.
01:01:10So I guess just be yourself.
01:01:12Let's get the sofa with you.
01:01:17Father?
01:01:19I'm here.
01:01:21You're not alone.
01:01:22I'm with my fiancé.
01:01:25That's you.
01:01:28Wait, you two know each other?
01:01:31Your father and I have met.
01:01:33It was a long time ago.
01:01:34I'm surprised he remembers.
01:01:36I never forget a face.
01:01:38Especially one as unique as yours.
01:01:41Wait, hang on.
01:01:43This doesn't make any sense.
01:01:44Someone needs to give me some answers.
01:01:46This man came to me a few years ago.
01:01:50Asking for a private meeting to discuss a very important proposal.
01:02:11You're the man I spoke with on the phone?
01:02:29Yes, sir.
01:02:32It's not every day I have a meeting with a total stranger.
01:02:34But you said you had an interesting business proposal.
01:02:37So, what is it?
01:02:38Of course, sir.
01:02:39I understand perfectly.
01:02:41But I said I had an interesting proposal for you.
01:02:44It may not be exactly considered a business proposal.
01:02:48Young man, I don't have time for your silly little word games.
01:02:51So you have five minutes to tell me what the proposal is.
01:02:53Or I will have you thrown out.
01:02:56Right down to business.
01:02:57I would like to ask for your daughter, Emma's hand in marriage.
01:03:11I'm sorry.
01:03:12I think my hearing must be playing tricks on me.
01:03:14Could you repeat that for me, please?
01:03:16I said I would like your daughter's hand in marriage.
01:03:21So it seems like my hearing is fine.
01:03:24No, sir.
01:03:24I believe your hearing is still top-notch.
01:03:26So, what makes you think I would go for such a ludicrous idea?
01:03:30Well, I didn't think you'd have a problem with it,
01:03:31since I am the heir to my family's billion-dollar fortune.
01:03:35Is that supposed to impress me?
01:03:37Anyone can claim to be anything these days.
01:03:45That's my family's name, our net worth.
01:03:48We operate several business enterprises,
01:03:50as well as doing philanthropic work.
01:03:52So?
01:03:52A union between your daughter and I
01:03:54would strengthen both our families,
01:03:56galvanizing our position in high society,
01:03:58making us a formidable force.
01:04:01I didn't think you'd have a problem with it.
01:04:03Well, I see you've done your research.
01:04:05But even if I were to give this union my blessing,
01:04:08I could never convince my Emmeline
01:04:10to marry someone that she didn't choose herself.
01:04:13Well, I believe that's where I come in.
01:04:15How so?
01:04:16So, how exactly do you plan on wooing my daughter?
01:04:27Well, in all honesty, sir, it's not a very good plan,
01:04:30but it's one that sets my heart at ease.
01:04:32What exactly are you talking about?
01:04:34I've not had much luck with women in this regard.
01:04:37They always seem to be after me for access to my money.
01:04:41I'm so sick of it.
01:04:43So I intend to disguise myself as a nobody.
01:04:47Are you suggesting that my daughter is after you for your money,
01:04:51like some pathetic little gold digger?
01:04:52No, no, sir.
01:04:55I just want Emma to get to know me for me, that's all.
01:04:58This is a ridiculous plan.
01:04:59It'll never work.
01:05:01I know.
01:05:02But I'm still willing to try.
01:05:04And if it goes south, no harm done.
01:05:06So what exactly do you want from me?
01:05:08Well, I was hoping you could put in a good word for me.
01:05:11But Emma can't know that you know who I am.
01:05:14Maybe you could say that I'm the son of an old friend.
01:05:16This is a ridiculous plan.
01:05:17I think you just need to leave.
01:05:19It's no secret that you yearn for your daughter
01:05:20to get married to someone worthy from high society.
01:05:25Please just consider the plan.
01:05:27How dare you presume to know me and what it is that I want.
01:05:31Get out!
01:05:37Thank you for your time.
01:05:39If you reconsider, please give me a call.
01:05:44How arrogant.
01:05:47Reminds me of my younger self.
01:05:50Wait, so hang on.
01:05:57What you're trying to tell me is...
01:05:59I've never been poor a day in my life.
01:06:02I just wanted you to see the real me.
01:06:04That's what I was trying to tell you that day in the restaurant.
01:06:07But you wouldn't hear me out.
01:06:08So you just created a fake marriage, a contract marriage?
01:06:13And why not move on to someone else?
01:06:15Contract marriage?
01:06:17But what if I hadn't signed it?
01:06:18What was going to be your next scheme?
01:06:20I told you.
01:06:22You're the only person that I ever wanted to see me for who I was.
01:06:27And it wasn't a sham contract.
01:06:29I would have kept my end of the bargain at the end of the three months.
01:06:34What if I hadn't signed it?
01:06:36What would have your next scheme, Dean?
01:06:37There was no next scheme because I knew you would sign it.
01:06:41How did you know that?
01:06:43Because I know you.
01:06:45Emma.
01:06:46You're willing to do whatever it takes to get what you want.
01:06:49Just like I am.
01:06:51You seem to know a lot about me.
01:06:54I really don't know what's going on here.
01:06:57But Em, if you're willing to accept his marriage proposal,
01:07:02you can have the company.
01:07:06No, Father.
01:07:08There's no marriage proposal.
01:07:10Just a web of lies and deceit in this sick man's games.
01:07:14There is now.
01:07:15Emma, you're the only one I've ever wanted.
01:07:21The only one I love.
01:07:24I'm sorry I had to pretend to be someone I wasn't.
01:07:28But, if you're willing to make an honest man out of me,
01:07:32I promise, no more games or half-truths.
01:07:36Emma, will you marry me?
01:07:45Will you marry me?
01:07:49Jeff, you're a very curious human being.
01:07:53But you have been very kind and caring to me over the last few months.
01:07:57And even though I've been a total bitch,
01:08:01I hate to admit it, but I have grown fond of you.
01:08:04So is that a yes?
01:08:06Well, we've already been married for two months.
01:08:08Might as well give it a real shot.
01:08:12Yes!
01:08:12Yes!
01:08:12Oh, looks like I missed the family reunion.
01:08:22Guess my invitation got lost in the mail.
01:08:25No, Jonas, you're just in the nick of time.
01:08:27Your sister is getting married.
01:08:30Oh, that's wonderful news.
01:08:32I'm not finished.
01:08:33It is also my final decision that she takes over as CEO of Castro Enterprises
01:08:38and that you step down effective immediately.
01:08:41Like hell I will.
01:08:43I'm your son!
01:08:44No son of mine would swap out my medication for a placebo
01:08:48so that I would die faster.
01:08:50Yeah, I knew about that.
01:08:52I might be sick, but I am not senile.
01:08:55I didn't want it to come to this.
01:08:57I don't love something on my mother, Joyce.
01:09:00What are you doing this?
01:09:01Dude, what the hell are you doing?
01:09:02That's our father.
01:09:03What are you doing?
01:09:04I'm doing what I should have done a long time ago, little sister.
01:09:08Please, that's our father.
01:09:09Just think about what you're doing.
01:09:11Put it down.
01:09:20Step out of the way, Emma.
01:09:22I'm not going to tell you again.
01:09:23No, please.
01:09:24Think about what you're doing.
01:09:25This is our father.
01:09:26Put it down.
01:09:27What the fuck do you think you're doing, Emma?
01:09:29Get out of the way.
01:09:30No.
01:09:30It's okay, Emma.
01:09:31I'll handle this.
01:09:33No, please let me talk to him.
01:09:34Talk to who?
01:09:35This piece of shit?
01:09:37This disgraceful excuse for a man that I'm ashamed to call my son?
01:09:41Your mother was right about you.
01:09:43If you refuse to get out of the way, Emma,
01:09:45then you can go to the grave with him.
01:09:48No, no, no.
01:09:49No.
01:09:50No.
01:09:52Mother.
01:09:53Mother, no.
01:09:55No, mother.
01:09:56Mother, please, no.
01:10:02Please, call an ambulance.
01:10:05No, call an ambulance.
01:10:06It's too late, Em.
01:10:07It's too late.
01:10:08Mother, please.
01:10:10Em, don't worry.
01:10:11It's fine.
01:10:13Know that I'm so proud of you.
01:10:17And your mother would have been so proud of you, too.
01:10:22I'll send her your love.
01:10:24Mother, no.
01:10:25No, no, no.
01:10:26I'll send her your love.
01:10:27No.
01:10:28No.
01:10:28No.
01:10:28No.
01:10:29No.
01:10:29No.
01:10:34No.
01:10:34You
