00:00:10I should never have let you go undercover on that damn business deal.
00:00:15I never even got to say goodbye.
00:00:17Marco, my brother, I will protect your legacy and I will protect our family.
00:00:29Hey, hey, who are you?
00:00:32Which family do you work for?
00:00:33I just came to drop off the flowers.
00:00:35I didn't mean to retreat.
00:00:36Luca, look at her.
00:00:39She's hardly a threat.
00:00:46For the flowers and for the interruption, my apologies.
00:01:02Signor Mancini, Mr. Marco had a widow named Ava Jackson and she was carrying his child.
00:01:09Get the car.
00:01:11Let me bring my daughter to our home where she belongs.
00:01:21Don't worry, little one.
00:01:24We'll get through this together.
00:01:27Somehow.
00:01:30Well, looky here.
00:01:33Family Jinx is finally six feet under.
00:01:44Derek, have you lost your mind?
00:01:46What the hell was that?
00:01:48Don't tell me that you're actually planning on keeping that little parasite.
00:01:51This is Marco's baby.
00:01:55This is our child.
00:01:56Of course, I'm keeping it.
00:01:58Ever since you got knocked up, you've done nothing to help this family.
00:02:03We've been struggling while you've been out here playing the grieving widow.
00:02:07Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.
00:02:13Because you owe me.
00:02:16This is your fault.
00:02:19I dropped out of college for this family.
00:02:21I took five jobs.
00:02:23What more could you possibly owe?
00:02:24You'll never be a duck, Ava.
00:02:25You'll owe us to the day you die.
00:02:29Please.
00:02:31Sweetheart.
00:02:32Think of your brother.
00:02:34Brother.
00:02:36I'm going to stomp out that little bastard right now.
00:02:40Send him straight to hell.
00:02:41So he can say hello to his deadbeat dad.
00:02:46Hey!
00:03:05What the hell is going on here?
00:03:07Who the hell are you people?
00:03:09Ava, right?
00:03:11You were here this morning.
00:03:13Enough, Luca.
00:03:15She's hardly up there.
00:03:19Ma'am?
00:03:21I'm Helena Mancini.
00:03:23Marco's mother.
00:03:27That means I'm your baby's grandmother.
00:03:31The most powerful mafia family in the country.
00:03:36Marker was my oldest.
00:03:37He was my golden boy.
00:03:40I am so sorry that he concealed his identity from you.
00:03:44You have endured far too much suffering because of it.
00:03:51Plain make-believe Mancini?
00:03:54Seriously, like, is anybody here actually buying this?
00:03:57Question my identity again,
00:03:58and my men will make sure your other leg looks like your first one.
00:04:04Permanently.
00:04:06What are you doing?
00:04:07Derek, run!
00:04:09Maybe we should just go.
00:04:12One moment, dear.
00:04:14Anyone who raises a hand to my daughter-in-law
00:04:17deserves to have their fingers snapped.
00:04:20One by one.
00:04:25Come along, I dear.
00:04:28Let's get you home.
00:04:30To your real home.
00:04:53Welcome home, Senora Ava Mancini.
00:04:56This is where Marco lived.
00:05:00And now, it's your hand.
00:05:08Allow me to introduce you to your personal staff, Mrs. Mancini.
00:05:13Your nutritionist, nanny, maternity nurse,
00:05:15each the finest specialist money can acquire.
00:05:17We pledge your absolute dedication to your health and well-being, Senora Ava.
00:05:24Your days of working multiple jobs are over, my dear.
00:05:28Ten million dollars is a little spending money.
00:05:31Well, thank you, but I can't accept this.
00:05:35I married Marco for love, not for his fortune.
00:05:40Practical and principled, my Marco truly had an eye for quality.
00:05:46There is one more member of the family that you need to properly meet.
00:05:51That would be Luca, Marco's younger brother.
00:05:54The brooding iceberg that you encountered this morning.
00:05:57Well, well, well.
00:05:59It's a flower girl in the cemetery.
00:06:02Luca, come meet Ava, your brother's wife.
00:06:06Please, show her proper.
00:06:11Respect.
00:06:13You walk back into a Mancini household.
00:06:16You're either incredibly stupid or incredibly brave.
00:06:22Luca, open this door immediately.
00:06:27Everyone around back, now.
00:06:31Who are you, really?
00:06:34I'll be watching your every move, your every breath.
00:06:39So tell me, who are you, really?
00:06:44My brother's dead, and you appear suddenly?
00:06:47Was this your endgame all along?
00:06:49Our fortune?
00:06:51I didn't know Marco's a Mancini.
00:06:53And now?
00:06:54I don't need this.
00:06:55I can walk right out those doors.
00:06:56You can't walk anywhere.
00:06:58She's not going anywhere.
00:07:03And get your hands off of her.
00:07:05She is carrying Marco's child.
00:07:08Oh, is she?
00:07:09How do we even know it is Marco's child?
00:07:11Convenient timing, wouldn't you say?
00:07:16Question me on you, Marco.
00:07:18Don't you dare question my child?
00:07:21That's my girl.
00:07:22Backbone of steel.
00:07:24Are you hurt?
00:07:27Luca, you are too rude.
00:07:29Ava is a good girl.
00:07:31You are falsely accusing her.
00:07:33Come on, sweetie.
00:07:34Mom's going to take you and get some clothes.
00:07:36Pay no attention to this fool.
00:07:41You may be fooling them, but I will find out about you, and I will expose you.
00:08:02These are all the latest European styles.
00:08:05Take your pick.
00:08:06I have plenty to wear.
00:08:08And these are much too expensive.
00:08:10Oh, not to worry.
00:08:11It's all on Luca's card.
00:08:14Treat my dear daughter-in-law well.
00:08:37Try to be open and honest.
00:08:40This way on my chest, I don't want it.
00:08:44I'd hate to be breaking, I promise.
00:08:48Cause I owe you the truth that I love.
00:08:52Oh, isn't she gorgeous?
00:08:58She's adequate.
00:09:03Always the tough guy act with you.
00:09:05Your eyes tell a different story, my son.
00:09:08Oh yes, this is just perfect.
00:09:11We will take one of everything in her size.
00:09:16Mom.
00:09:18Mom.
00:09:20That's too generous.
00:09:21Nonsense.
00:09:23We're family now.
00:09:25I am putting Luca's contact info into your phone.
00:09:29Reach out to him.
00:09:31Reach out to him.
00:09:31Whatever you need.
00:09:32And don't worry.
00:09:34He's actually quite a softie.
00:09:37Now, shall we continue shopping?
00:09:40Yes.
00:09:41Yes.
00:09:44Sir.
00:09:45Yes.
00:09:45Your mother has spent approximately 15 million dollars on Miss Jackson in the last week alone.
00:09:52God.
00:09:53In mere days she has swooned our family out of millions of dollars.
00:09:58She's clearly not an amateur.
00:09:59She's also been spending a substantial amount since marrying your brother to pay off her brother's debts.
00:10:05I want everything on her.
00:10:08Everything!
00:10:09If she is playing us for fools, then I will personally ensure that she regrets ever hearing the name Mancina.
00:10:24I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:10:26I hate to put extra stress on your shoulders, but we need to discuss the incredible cost of your husband's
00:10:33care
00:10:33and how the bill will be paid.
00:10:35Limited edition is perfect for you.
00:10:43Marco?
00:10:44You just focus on getting better, okay?
00:10:47Don't worry about the bills.
00:10:49I've got it covered.
00:10:57Your brother married Miss Jackson under false pretenses.
00:11:01She worked several jobs to make that money.
00:11:03And when your brother got sick, she worked to pay off his medical bills.
00:11:07And then day and night for his funeral.
00:11:10Did I get her all wrong?
00:11:24Hello?
00:11:25Mother is unwell.
00:11:26You need to return home immediately.
00:11:30What's wrong with Mom?
00:11:31Is...
00:11:33Is she hurt?
00:11:36Mom?
00:11:38What's going on?
00:11:45Eva, please don't be angry.
00:11:48We just had to get you here.
00:11:54What are you doing?
00:11:56Since you won't help us financially, we had to find another solution.
00:11:59Victor Fang.
00:12:01That old Lone Shark's willing to give us $80,000 just to marry you.
00:12:10Are you insane?
00:12:13I'm pregnant!
00:12:14Your husband's dead, Eva.
00:12:16Why keep his baby?
00:12:17Think about your family.
00:12:18Mr. Fang is waiting.
00:12:20Don't make this harder than it needs to be.
00:12:24You are not selling me off to Victor Fang!
00:12:29If she dies, how will you provide for this child?
00:12:35She's calling someone!
00:12:44Hello?
00:12:50Eva's in danger, we need to move.
00:12:52Go, go, go!
00:12:56Eventually, Grace!
00:13:11You think someone's coming to save you?
00:13:18Who dare manhandle my future bride?
00:13:22Mr. Fang!
00:13:22Oh, it's such a pleasure. This is Ava, my sister, who we discussed.
00:13:27Ooh, two for the price of one, I see.
00:13:30Oh, it's just some dead guy's kid. If you want, I can take care of it right now.
00:13:35We can offer you a discount, and I think $60,000 is more than fair.
00:13:38Pennies for somebody of your wealth.
00:13:40Derek, you're sick! I'm your sister, this is your nephew.
00:13:44My son's future is more important to me than that stupid little bastard of yours!
00:13:48Hey, hey, no need to be so rough with such a beautiful lady.
00:13:54Now, dear, just take this right here, and it'll make things easier for everybody.
00:14:00Oh, okay, you're a little feisty, I see.
00:14:07Maybe you just need a little personal attention.
00:14:35Get out of my way!
00:14:35I always knew Ava was trouble. Her husband's barely cold, and she already has another day.
00:14:41Who the hell do you think you are?
00:14:46I look at Mancini.
00:14:48Mancini, you idiot! You killed me!
00:14:51How did my sister get caught up with the likes of you?
00:14:54Ava is my brother's widow, and her baby is his only child.
00:14:59So it's true? Her baby's the heir to the Mancini family?
00:15:04Looks like your wife is pregnant, too.
00:15:06Yes, yes, yes, it's true. I swear, we didn't know. Please, please.
00:15:11You will be dealt with, tenfold, what you did to Ava.
00:15:18Get a doctor! Get a doctor! Get a car, and deal with him.
00:15:21You can't.
00:15:23Get a car!
00:15:26Get a car!
00:15:28Get a car!
00:15:28I don't know.
00:15:30I don't know.
00:15:33I don't know.
00:15:36Get a car!
00:15:58Mom, hey.
00:16:01How's Ava?
00:16:02How's the baby?
00:16:03The doctors are examining her now.
00:16:09Doctor, how is she?
00:16:11Mrs. Mancini has a severe ankle fracture that it needs immediate surgery.
00:16:16The medication could cause a miscarriage.
00:16:18So we need to have consent before we can proceed.
00:16:22Do it.
00:16:23Whatever it takes.
00:16:24No!
00:16:27Doctor, is there any way to do the surgery without anesthesia?
00:16:31That's not medically advisable.
00:16:33The pain would be too excruciating.
00:16:37This baby is Marco's only child.
00:16:41His only heir.
00:16:42I can't risk losing it.
00:16:44I can handle the pain.
00:16:46Oh, my brave girl.
00:16:49God bless you.
00:16:51You know, I think somebody should be with her during the operation.
00:16:54The pain would be just too intense.
00:16:57I'll stay with her.
00:17:22How'd it go, doctor?
00:17:23It's a success.
00:17:26You're a real trooper, if you don't mind me saying.
00:17:29I guess my brother had good reason to fall for her.
00:17:51Senora Ava, please.
00:17:52Let me help you.
00:17:57Okay, right this way, I'm ready.
00:18:04I know your stay at the hospital could not have been easy for you.
00:18:08That's why I'm having 30% of Mancini Group shares put into your name.
00:18:14No.
00:18:15Mom, I cannot accept that.
00:18:18We're family.
00:18:20It's what you deserve.
00:18:22Actually, I've been thinking about doing something else.
00:18:27Hmm.
00:18:27I'd like to go back to work.
00:18:30Work?
00:18:31But, but, you're pregnant.
00:18:33Oh, honey, if you need money, I'll just transfer some into your account.
00:18:35No, no, it's not about money.
00:18:38Marco always said that we should make our own way.
00:18:43And I want our child to know his father and know what he valued.
00:18:51And you are as stubborn as he was.
00:18:55Well, you're going to need protection.
00:18:58You'll accompany her.
00:19:02No, no, no, no, no.
00:19:04I can manage on my own.
00:19:08In the morning, 10 a.m., I'll be at the entrance.
00:19:20You know that I can talk to your manager for you.
00:19:23Make sure that they accommodate every need.
00:19:25No need.
00:19:26I don't want any special treatments.
00:19:28But, thank you for that ride.
00:19:32You know, Ava, you do not need to be afraid of me.
00:19:36I can help you.
00:19:37Whenever you need.
00:19:57Why is she even back?
00:19:58That pregnant belly ruins the source of static.
00:20:01These pregnant women know exactly what they're doing.
00:20:03Hiding behind maternity protections.
00:20:06We can't legally fire her.
00:20:09Could you reassign her to the warehouse?
00:20:11Maybe move some stock around?
00:20:12And if something happens to her or the baby,
00:20:14you want that liability?
00:20:17We can't fire her,
00:20:19but we certainly can make her life difficult enough
00:20:21that she decides to quit on her own.
00:20:43And that concludes our quarterly revenue projections.
00:20:49Sir, forgive my directness,
00:20:51but are we here because you're concerned about your sister-in-law?
00:21:01Should I have the car brought around for your next meeting?
00:21:05Can I answer the meeting?
00:21:09I've been meaning to talk to you,
00:21:11given your, um, condition.
00:21:14I've been worried about potential liability issues.
00:21:17My pregnancy will not affect my performance.
00:21:20I do not intend to take advantage of company policy.
00:21:23Oh, I'm glad to hear that.
00:21:26Then you won't mind proving your commitment.
00:21:29Sell $1 million worth of merchandise by today,
00:21:33and I'll put all of my concerns to rest.
00:21:36I've seen your sales record.
00:21:37I know you can do it.
00:21:39I know you can do it.
00:22:19Sir, half an hour until closing, and Mrs. Mancini has already surpassed the store's average monthly sales in a single
00:22:26day.
00:22:27But she's still a great deal short of the manager's impossible target.
00:22:34She did make it clear that she doesn't want any special treatment.
00:22:37But I have been neglecting my own wardrobe, and the Rossi family event will require several new suits.
00:22:44Now that you mention it, sir, your formal collection is missing quite a few essential items.
00:22:49And I should do some personal shopping, shouldn't I?
00:22:57Sir, may I assist you?
00:22:59Sir, this limited edition silk tie would go perfect with your complexion.
00:23:03Sir, I'd be happy to take your measurements, personally.
00:23:06Sir, as store manager, I would be honored to assist you with your needs myself.
00:23:13Sir, I'd actually like Miss Jackson to assist me.
00:23:16I hear her taste in men's fashion is exceptional.
00:23:23Shall we begin?
00:23:25Right this way, sir.
00:23:32I just needed to take your measurements.
00:23:35Whoa, what are you doing?
00:23:38You measure them like this?
00:23:40I just needed you to take the jacket off.
00:23:43Well, we don't have much time.
00:23:45Hold on.
00:23:48Do you trust me?
00:23:51I know.
00:23:57Now, measure me like this.
00:24:04Okay.
00:24:27Ava, time is almost up.
00:24:47I did it, I saved my job, and I made a new sales record.
00:24:54There's no reason to thank me.
00:24:56I'm here to help, whenever you need it.
00:25:00I hate to do this, but Ava Jackson, you're fired.
00:25:07What?
00:25:09No.
00:25:10I met your target and then some.
00:25:12Oh, that last sale, the one that put you over the top, that was actually mine.
00:25:18You're trying to steal my commission?
00:25:20Well, that won't work because everyone in this store saw me make that sale.
00:25:29I get it.
00:25:30You threatened them into silence.
00:25:32Well, that won't work either.
00:25:34Because the security cameras caught everything.
00:25:37Security cameras?
00:25:46What horrible timing.
00:25:49Unfortunately, the security cameras are down for maintenance today.
00:25:52But fortunately, everyone here saw you destroy thousands of dollars worth of merchandise.
00:25:59You all saw Ava, didn't you?
00:26:01Yeah, we all saw it.
00:26:04So someone should call security.
00:26:06Better yet, call the police.
00:26:16I'm sorry sir, but we're closed for the day.
00:26:19I heard that this store got trashed.
00:26:20I'm gonna have to ask you to leave, or I'm gonna have to call the police.
00:26:23The police work for me.
00:26:25Are you?
00:26:27Luca Mancini?
00:26:28What you okay?
00:26:36Blaring to appear, the police.
00:26:41Nope.
00:26:44You got it.
00:26:56If I'm sick of everybody we'll get the police.
00:26:57We better go,ờiie.
00:27:21Please stop. I admit it, I was wrong.
00:27:24Who really damaged the merchandise in the store? The Addams A. Uni store are worth over several millions of dollars.
00:27:30That's five years in prison.
00:27:36Look, what happened?
00:27:37There's nothing worth talking about. We need to go. And by the way, you're fired.
00:27:41Let's go. A mom cooked a spoon.
00:27:47How dare that woman mess with my family. I will make sure, personally, that she suffers for it.
00:27:57You don't have to worry about that anymore. It's all taken care of, thanks to Luca.
00:28:02The store looked like a tornado hit it. Man who will be serving time in a jail cell. Justice is
00:28:07served.
00:28:08That's my boy. Sweetheart, I would like you to concentrate full time on your pregnancy right now.
00:28:18All of this work drama can wait until after my grandchild is born safely.
00:28:23Yes, mommy. I transferred five million dollars into your personal account for prenatal care.
00:28:30I am worried about the baby's well-being. Luca, I'd like you to take her to the doctor tomorrow for
00:28:37an exam.
00:28:38No, that's really not necessary.
00:28:44I have those meetings in Europe, so possibly I could have someone to substitute in for me.
00:28:49Yeah, and I'm perfectly capable of going by myself. I don't want to trouble Luca with something so routine.
00:28:58It's decided. Cancel whatever meetings you have. I want you to take her. I will not stand for any more
00:29:06incidents.
00:29:07Yes, mother.
00:29:22Ava Jackson, we're ready for you now. Dad should come too. We encourage partner participation.
00:29:29Oh no, he's not.
00:29:34Would you prefer that I explain that I'm your dead husband's brother? That might be a bit awkward.
00:29:39Mr. and Mrs. Jackson, please come in when you're ready.
00:29:42Coming.
00:29:49If you could lift your top up slightly and lower your skirt band just a bit, we'll get started.
00:30:02First prenatal checkup together, I'm guessing.
00:30:10The baby looks perfectly healthy. Current length is about three inches with a strong heart rate.
00:30:18Is the baby moving?
00:30:20Yes indeed.
00:30:22Look there. The little one's making faces.
00:30:27Quite the expressive child already.
00:30:33Dad, don't you want to come take a look?
00:30:43The baby's at 18 weeks, now developing beautifully.
00:30:47For home care, I recommend plenty of rest, nutrient rich foods, and tactile bonding when possible.
00:30:57Tactile bonding?
00:30:59Yes. It's quite beneficial for fetal development.
00:31:03Come over here and place your hands on her belly.
00:31:06Doctor, is that really appropriate?
00:31:09What's inappropriate about it? This is what husbands do.
00:31:29I'm sorry, did I hurt you?
00:31:31No, no. It just feels strange.
00:31:36Like this. Top to bottom, left to right, gentle strokes.
00:31:45Got it?
00:31:47Got it.
00:31:48Do this once daily, five to ten minutes each.
00:31:54You can sit up now.
00:32:02So, everything good with the baby? Any special instructions I should know about?
00:32:08Nothing. Nothing, no.
00:32:09The doctor did say that the baby is developing beautifully, and there's nothing to worry about.
00:32:16Good news then.
00:32:19Before I forget, the Rossi family's daughter is having her birthday celebration next weekend, and we should all attend.
00:32:28The Rossi family?
00:32:30Technically, they're our business rivals, but social niceties must be maintained.
00:32:37And she has had an embarrassing crush on Luca since they were little children.
00:32:42Mom, please.
00:32:43Miss Sofia Rossi has arrived unannounced.
00:32:48She shows up without calling? How gauche.
00:32:52Should we send Eva upstairs?
00:32:54No, no, it's fine. I'm here. We can just...
00:32:59Good evening, Mrs. Mancini. Luca! I came to personally deliver my birthday invitation.
00:33:04Okay.
00:33:09Luca, who is this woman?
00:33:11Luca, who is this woman?
00:33:13Hey, hey, hey. Rossi's family lack of manners ever disappoints me.
00:33:18Luca Mancini, how dare you speak to me like that?
00:33:20Ms. Rossi, right? I've heard so much about your family.
00:33:26I'm Eva, Marco's wife. Marco was Luca's brother.
00:33:34Oh, okay. I thought you were carrying Luca's baby.
00:33:38That's good, because I'm nice.
00:33:40I came all this way to bring you that, and this is how you welcome me?
00:33:44Don't disappoint me at the party, darling.
00:33:46Wear something sharp.
00:33:50Yes.
00:34:00See if there's any connection between that pregnant woman and Luca.
00:34:03I'm not buying this whole sister-in-law act for one second.
00:34:06You got it.
00:34:12You look so handsome.
00:34:16Well, well, well. It looks like my stubborn son has good taste after all.
00:34:22Luca did an excellent job selecting this gown. It is perfect for you.
00:34:27Luca picked this?
00:34:32I've never been anywhere this fancy before. I might embarrass you guys.
00:34:36Oh, don't even worry about it. You are my pride and joy.
00:34:42Besides, Luca will be with us the whole time, and he'll make sure everything runs smoothly.
00:34:51Luca? What about her shoes? How could you forget something so basic?
00:35:10I've never been there.
00:35:12I can't live anywhere.
00:35:28No problem. Just don't want you to fall.
00:35:46Who's that with Mr. Mancini?
00:35:48She's clearly pregnant. Do you think that's Mr. Mancini's baby?
00:35:52I had no idea he was going to marry. Must be his mistress.
00:35:56Oh, sure.
00:35:56Everyone, I would like to introduce Ava Mancini.
00:36:01My eldest son, Marco's wife.
00:36:04Marco's wife? She's stunning.
00:36:08This is my birthday party!
00:36:11I'm supposed to be the center of attention, not some pregnant woman!
00:36:17Maybe we shouldn't cause a scene here.
00:36:19It's mine. She's always like this.
00:36:23We didn't mean to steal your spotlight.
00:36:26An apology simply isn't enough.
00:36:29Since you're Luca's sister-in-law, why don't you entertain us all with a performance of some kind?
00:36:35Look, she used to deliver food for a living.
00:36:38Waitress? Retail clerk? Cleaning lady?
00:36:41What could someone with her background possibly perform for this crowd?
00:36:55Ava, how does this piece go again?
00:36:58I am completely lost here. I've forgotten everything that you've told me.
00:37:02There's no way she could actually play. She's just a nobody from nowhere.
00:37:07He has to be setting your own.
00:37:08Even Miss Mancini is smiling. Just waiting for her to crash and burn.
00:37:32I was just playing for the baby.
00:37:34I think he recognized the music you were playing for us earlier.
00:37:39Well, maybe you should teach me sometime. Properly. I'd like to play for you both.
00:37:46Um, because Mom did tell me to look after you, so it's the least that I can do.
00:37:54One, two, three, and there.
00:38:08One, two, three, and there.
00:38:22One, two, three, and there.
00:38:28One, two, three, and there.
00:38:41They're definitely more than in-laws.
00:38:44Look at the way they play together.
00:38:46If I can't have him, I'll destroy them both.
00:38:55Yeah, I always enjoy these type of events.
00:38:57Me too. That habit's good.
00:38:59From Miss Rossi. Your compliments.
00:39:03Cheers.
00:39:07Sir, that drink is almost certainly drugged.
00:39:10Obviously.
00:39:11Is the Rossi family making a move against us?
00:39:13These tensions have been simmering for years.
00:39:16Should we respond preemptively?
00:39:22Do nothing. You just need to focus on protecting Ava.
00:39:27We'll see what they have planned.
00:39:35Darling, you look tired.
00:39:37I don't think all this excitement is good for your condition.
00:39:40Why don't you try to find Luca and let's get you home.
00:39:44I can't.
00:40:08Sophia's bedroom. Why is Luca's phone in there?
00:40:11And why am I jealous?
00:40:30I've wanted Luca for years. And then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks?
00:40:39You won't look so innocent when everyone sees you in bed next to your dead husband's brother.
00:40:44This isn't exactly how you wanted it.
00:40:47Not at all. This isn't convincing. Unbutton their clothes.
00:40:57Sal, position them closer together. Make it look more intimate.
00:41:06Perfect. Let's go.
00:41:08Our masterpiece is complete.
00:41:09Now we just have to bring in an audience.
00:41:21I expected much more than just this juvenile prank from my business partner.

00:47:27Ava, you're so close.
00:47:29Is this a dream?
00:47:38Luca, I'm your brother's wife.
00:47:40So this isn't a dream.
00:47:42I, um...
00:47:45Ava, I've had feelings for you for so long.
00:47:49And I've tried to keep them a secret, but I...
00:47:51I can't keep them any longer.
00:47:54And now you know my two secrets and my family code.
00:47:59I have to silence the person who discovers my weaknesses.
00:48:05Luca, let me go.
00:48:06No, no, no, but I can't silence you because, Ava, I have fallen in love with you.
00:48:12Oh, God, that's not funny.
00:48:15Look, I've never been more serious.
00:48:19Look, Ava, every time I come around you, I...
00:48:23I feel myself slipping.
00:48:26And my feelings have crossed that line months ago.
00:48:31Stop, stop, just stop.
00:48:34I'll forget this ever happened.
00:48:35No, Ava.
00:48:37I want to take care of you.
00:48:40And the baby.
00:48:41For the rest of my life.
00:48:58Luca, what's going on?
00:48:59Why isn't Ava home?
00:49:03What's going on here?
00:49:04Mom, I...
00:49:05Nothing.
00:49:07My clothes were dirty, so Luca prepared for me a shower and clean clothes.
00:49:12Oh, thank goodness.
00:49:14The last thing we need is for you to catch pneumonia.
00:49:17Yeah, I know.
00:49:19Ava, I think that we should probably...
00:49:21Luca, it's almost Marco's birthday.
00:49:27Let's visit his grave.
00:49:30He's your brother and my husband.
00:49:33And we don't want to betray his memory.
00:49:36Oh, you poor thing.
00:49:37You must be utterly exhausted.
00:49:40Let's get you home.
00:49:42These Rossis are nothing but trouble.
00:49:44We need to accelerate our plans against them.
00:49:46Changing hearts.
00:49:57Marco.
00:50:00I miss you.
00:50:05I feel so lost without you.
00:50:11Would you hate me?
00:50:14If you knew I had feelings for your brother?
00:50:20Ava, are you in there?
00:50:29Ava, are you there?
00:50:32I meant everything that I said today.
00:50:35And I want to help you get through this, and I want to protect you.
00:50:40Marco and Mom, they would both understand.
00:50:45Ava, I love you.
00:51:01I understand how difficult this is.
00:51:05Your loyalty for Marco, and your concern for my mother, that is the compassion that...
00:51:11That's the reason I fell in love with you.
00:51:16There's $30 million on this credit card, and the pin number is your birthday.
00:51:21I've been through ebbs and flows, I've asked goodbye, hell like the end.
00:51:27Can't deny, I can't pretend, is that this fire burns again.
00:51:34Illuminated rain.
00:51:36I feel alive.
00:51:39One more time, our worlds collide.
00:51:42Watch them circling in the sky.
00:51:45We are magnetic sides.
00:51:48I'm falling in love with you.
00:51:51No one loves me like you do.
00:51:54Thought that you and I were through.
00:52:02The baby's development is right on track.
00:52:06Perfect, actually.
00:52:09How's your husband been doing those tactile bonding exercises I showed you?
00:52:14Doctor, uh, actually he's not exactly right.
00:52:18You don't need to be embarrassed.
00:52:20The way that man looks at you is something special.
00:52:27Now face each other.
00:52:30Helena, take her hands.
00:52:32Deep inhale.
00:52:34And lean into each other.
00:52:37Using each other's weight to support you.
00:52:41Come up.
00:52:46On the exhale, do a gentle squat.
00:52:52And then share and embrace.
00:52:58You have anything?
00:53:05Who exactly are you welcoming home, dear daughter-in-law?
00:53:10I was just talking nonsense.
00:53:23I'll get him.
00:53:28Miss, flowers from Mr. Mancini.
00:54:04I wonder if he's doing well out there.
00:54:22Hello?
00:54:23Ava?
00:54:23I'm outside at the gate.
00:54:26Security won't let me in.
00:54:32Mom, what are you doing here?
00:54:34I've missed you terribly, sweetheart.
00:54:36I just wanted to check on you and the baby.
00:54:42Look.
00:54:44Fresh oranges.
00:54:45Just picked today.
00:54:47You need the vitamin C for the baby's development.
00:54:50I'm on a very carefully monitored diet.
00:54:53You wasted a trip.
00:54:58Look.
00:54:59I know that you haven't forgiven me.
00:55:01But you have to understand.
00:55:04Derek and Sarah, I mean, they would have thrown me out on the street if I didn't go along with
00:55:09them.
00:55:10I mean, what choice did I have?
00:55:13That's not rehash the past.
00:55:15That's not rehash the past.
00:55:15Of course.
00:55:17I picked these up for my grandchild.
00:55:20Aren't they precious?
00:55:23That baby that you're carrying is my family, too.
00:55:27I love them so much already.
00:55:30Look, I stood up for you to Derek and he threw me out.
00:55:34I had absolutely nothing left.
00:55:46This card contains all the money I've saved.
00:55:49It's yours.
00:55:50But you have to promise me that you'll use it for yourself.
00:55:53Not a penny goes to Derek.
00:55:55Okay.
00:55:56I swear it.
00:55:57Not a cent to him.
00:55:59How much money are we talking about?
00:56:01$10,000.
00:56:04$10,000?
00:56:06That's it.
00:56:08You're carrying the Mancini heir and all they've given you is $10,000.
00:56:13That is my personal savings.
00:56:15I haven't asked the Mancini's for a cent.
00:56:17This is completely unacceptable.
00:56:22Everyone in this city knows that the Mancini's are loaded beyond belief.
00:56:27Come on.
00:56:28You need to milk this situation for all it's worth.
00:56:36Honey, I'm...
00:56:39I'm only thinking about your future and your security.
00:56:43I mean, what happens if they throw you out once the baby arrives?
00:56:48I didn't marry into the Mancini family for their fortune.
00:56:52And you mention their money one more time, you'll never see me again.
00:56:57Understood?
00:56:58I understand, sweetheart.
00:57:00Mom won't say another word about it.
00:57:06Psst.
00:57:07$10,000?
00:57:09That's it?
00:57:10That's pocket change for them!
00:57:12She must be holding down on us.
00:57:16That ungrateful little brat.
00:57:18I tried everything.
00:57:20I couldn't squeeze another penny out of her.
00:57:22She's swimming in Mancini money and we're here struggling.
00:57:26After what they did to my leg, I should be getting millions!
00:57:29Yes!
00:57:30A few million?
00:57:31It's just the beginning.
00:57:33We've been thinking too small.
00:57:46I have good reason to believe that we have a common enemy.
00:57:49I think we should work together.
00:57:55Um, Miss Mancini has been sleeping well, sir.
00:57:58Uh, she got the prenatal vitamins you sent her and they effectively reduced her morning sickness.
00:58:03And this morning, she ate half a slice of french toast, a half portion of scrambled eggs, two cherry tomatoes,
00:58:10and a glass of milk.
00:58:11And after some gentle persuasion from your mother, she also had a piece of steak for the iron content.
00:58:17Oh.
00:58:18It's good to hear that she's eating healthy.
00:58:20And then she finally attended the prenatal concert we arranged.
00:58:23And afterwards, she spoke with one of the pianists about the compositions.
00:58:28Is it man or woman?
00:58:29Sir, per your instructions, they were all talented women.
00:58:32No exceptions.
00:58:34And she actually mentioned you today.
00:58:36While making hot chocolate, she said to the chef,
00:58:39It's never quite as good as Luca's.
00:58:42She always knows what to say.
00:58:45I'll make her a batch right now and we can have it delivered.
00:58:48Great. I'll arrange your private courier right away.
00:58:56Luca is almost finished with his business.
00:58:59Hopefully, he will make it home in time for the birth.
00:59:03Mrs. Mancini, terrible news.
00:59:06Luca's jet has been destroyed in mid-flight heat.
00:59:08He's missing.
00:59:09What?
00:59:11I want every detail immediately.
00:59:12Yes, ma'am.
00:59:15Ava, breathe.
00:59:16Breathe.
00:59:17Don't panic.
00:59:18Don't panic.
00:59:19Luca has always been lucky.
00:59:20He's gonna be fine.
00:59:22He will.
00:59:27Hello?
00:59:28I have Luca Mancini.
00:59:3020 million dollars cash for his safe return.
00:59:32No police.
00:59:34No family.
00:59:35No security team.
00:59:37You come alone or he dies.
00:59:39You have 24 hours.
00:59:45Oh, Ava, are you okay?
00:59:47Who was that?
00:59:49It's nothing, nothing.
00:59:50I...
00:59:50I...
00:59:51I...
00:59:51I'm just dizzy.
00:59:52The...
00:59:53The baby.
00:59:54So, I'm gonna go upstairs and lie down.
00:59:57Okay?
00:59:58Okay.
01:00:00Here.
01:00:05Here.
01:00:07Here.
01:00:08Here.
01:00:10Here.
01:00:10Here.
01:00:11Here.
01:00:12Here.
01:00:15Here.
01:00:17Here.
01:00:19Here.
01:00:21Here.
01:00:24Here.
01:00:26Here.
01:00:27Here.
01:00:35Where's Luca?
01:00:37Here.
01:00:37Where's Luca?
01:00:38Don't worry about Luca.
01:00:40Worry about yourself.
01:00:59Yeah!
01:01:00With her as our bargaining chip
01:01:02we can demand a hundred
01:01:04million dollars from the
01:01:06grandkids.
01:01:08Easy.
01:01:09Mom. Mom, why are you doing this?
01:01:12Poor family.
01:01:13Why have you always treated me so terribly?
01:01:20Family?
01:01:21You are so pathetic.
01:01:24You just don't get it,
01:01:26do you? You're just some brat
01:01:28that mom found on the street that she brought home
01:01:30to be our living servant.
01:01:32What are you talking about?
01:01:33You're an orphan!
01:01:35Not even your
01:01:37birth mother wanted you.
01:01:39Yeah, we brought you in.
01:01:41We fed you.
01:01:42We clothed you.
01:01:44And in return, your life belongs
01:01:47to us.
01:01:49Oh and uh,
01:01:50by the way, since we're
01:01:51being honest with each other right now,
01:01:53my whole leg injury,
01:01:55it's kind of my fault.
01:01:57But it was a great excuse
01:01:59to get you to basically give up your life
01:02:01and be our slave all these years.
01:02:04Yes.
01:02:08You know what?
01:02:11Even though you're nothing but a bunch
01:02:14of orphan trash,
01:02:16you're actually very beautiful.
01:02:18So since we're giving up this whole
01:02:20brother-sister roleplay thing,
01:02:25I don't want to do something
01:02:27that I've wanted to do
01:02:29for a very, very long time.
01:02:34Stop!
01:02:34You're sick!
01:02:36Shh!
01:02:39Now let's just keep that pretty little mouth
01:02:42of yours quiet, shall we?
01:02:48You fucking bitch!
01:02:55You fucking bitch!
01:03:04No.
01:03:04No.
01:03:05Nope.
01:03:13No!
01:03:23My plane blew up!
01:03:25Anybody get kidnapped?
01:03:26This isn't a coincidence!
01:03:27Who are you looking for?
01:03:29Answer me!
01:03:32Oh!
01:03:34Hey, make them stop!
01:03:36He's your brother!
01:03:38They'll kill him!
01:03:39You just told me I'm an orphan, so he's not really my real brother.
01:03:42You better tell me who your accomplices are, or he stops breathing.
01:03:46You two should be ashamed of yourselves.
01:03:49Yeah, I see the way that you look at each other.
01:03:51He's your dead husband's brother.
01:03:54You're a betrayed Margo and his mother.
01:04:00Are you alright?
01:04:00Hey, hey, hey, you okay?
01:04:02Yeah, yeah.
01:04:04Your mom has been so kind to me, and I dragged her into this mess.
01:04:08It's all my fault.
01:04:11Your mother-in-law took you in.
01:04:13She treated you like a daughter.
01:04:14She gave you everything that you could ever want, and this is how you repay her?
01:04:18By falling for her younger son?
01:04:21Have you already forgotten Margo?
01:04:23It is his grave!
01:04:25What is wrong with you?
01:04:29I want her as my daughter-in-law.
01:04:31First my eldest son's wife, and now my youngest.
01:04:38Object again, and you'll lose your tongue.
01:04:52You couldn't have Luca, so you decided to try and kill him?
01:04:58Good thing he changed his flight plan at the last minute, hmm?
01:05:03Cross the Mancini's, and you cease to exist.
01:05:07You must release me.
01:05:09My father will burn your empire to the ground.
01:05:14Don't you wonder why my son was gone all that time?
01:05:36You two have risked everything to be together.
01:05:41Father, I can see that Luca's devotion is absolute.
01:05:49You have endured far too much pain.
01:05:53It's time to let him take care of you.
01:05:55But, Marco, I made a promise to you.
01:06:01And Marco would want your happiness above all else.
01:06:07He will rest easier, knowing that we are protecting you and your child.
01:06:18From this moment forward, I swear to you, nobody will ever hurt you again.
01:06:27Luca, you're bleeding.
01:06:32You gotta keep this clean.
01:06:34Yeah.
01:06:40So you're saying that you care about me, then?
01:06:43Shut up.
01:06:45Of course I care.
01:06:50All right.
01:06:52Wait.
01:06:53Wait.
01:07:18I think he likes you.
01:07:20Yeah?
01:07:21Mm-hmm.
01:07:26Ava, I will take care of you.
01:07:29And the baby.
01:07:30Just like my brother would have.
01:07:32I brought some fruit for you and the...
01:07:36Luca.
01:07:38She's pregnant.
01:07:40Be gentle with her.
01:07:44I think maybe you should get some less.
01:07:47Okay.
01:07:51Oh, wait.
01:07:55What is it?
01:07:56I think I'm in labor.
01:07:58Oh, my God.
01:07:59Come on.
01:08:01I'm easy to sleep.
01:08:02Oh.
01:08:07What is taking so long?
01:08:09Is something wrong?
01:08:10She's gone into labor early.
01:08:11Have you two been intimate recently?
01:08:14Well, we didn't exactly.
01:08:17I mean, not completely.
01:08:19I warned you to be careful with her.
01:08:21Oh, I'm sorry.
01:08:22What can we do now?
01:08:23The medication isn't working as we'd hoped.
01:08:26There's another approach we could try.
01:08:29Yes, yes.
01:08:30We'll do anything.
01:08:31Money's no object.
01:08:31Just help her.
01:08:33Some intimate touches can help her relax and feel better.
01:08:41Right here.
01:08:43Right here.
01:08:44Yes.
01:08:49Mom, I can't.
01:08:51Just whip it out.
01:08:52Don't do it.
01:08:54Hurry it up.
01:08:56Don't do it.
01:09:25I hope things are going smoothly in there.
01:09:28They've never been together before.
01:09:31Never been together?
01:09:33Then how could she be?
01:09:35The child is my late son's.
01:09:38Luca's brother.
01:09:42You okay?
01:09:44Doctor, please!
01:09:46Doctor, please!
01:09:52Three, one, two, three, push!
01:09:55One, two, three, push!
01:09:59One, two, three, push!
01:10:00Push, push, push!
01:10:02Push!
01:10:06What's your baby?
01:10:08What's your baby?
01:10:10What's your baby?
01:10:14What's your baby?
01:10:18Hey.
01:10:19Hi.
01:10:20How you feeling?
01:10:21Good.
01:10:22You want something to eat?
01:10:24Okay.
01:10:25Okay.
01:10:30I thought this hospital was the best that money can buy.
01:10:32I guess I was misinformed.
01:10:35Luca.
01:10:37They're doing the best they can.
01:10:39Let's not terrorize the staff.
01:10:43Look.
01:10:43Okay.
01:10:44I just don't want to see you in any more pain.
01:10:47You would tear me apart.
01:10:49Okay.
01:10:58Luca, remember to control yourself, son.
01:11:02Let her recover first.
01:11:08Here you go.
01:11:10Yeah, yeah, just like Mary.
01:11:12Hi.
01:11:14And have you decided what to name this little prince?
01:11:19Marco.
01:11:21Marco.
01:11:22I want to name him Marco.
01:11:46Look, little one.
01:11:48It's your daddy.
01:11:51Your real daddy.
01:11:57It's remarkable how much he looks like.
01:12:00Marco.
01:12:02I thought you had all the answers.
01:12:05And that you'd handle everything.
01:12:08And I promise to protect mom,
01:12:12the business,
01:12:14and your family.
01:12:18Our family.
01:12:22You know, Marco used to say
01:12:25that if you wanted to think about somebody,
01:12:27you would wash the dandelion.
01:12:29And if the seeds blew out easily,
01:12:31then they were thinking of you too.
01:12:39On the radio.
01:12:42On the radio.
01:13:07Finally, 30% ownership of Mancini group holdings.
01:13:12Effective.
01:13:13Immediately.
01:13:19This ring has been in the Mancini family
01:13:22for seven generations.
01:13:25Passed from mother to daughter-in-law.
01:13:28It feels like we're the last ones on earth.
01:13:32Thank you, Monica.
01:13:34Forever, ever, we'll look back and smile
01:13:38when we think of this.
01:13:39A perfect fit.
01:13:41We'll laugh and cry
01:13:42at all of these moments.
01:13:44Thanks.
01:13:45Thanks.
01:13:47Thanks.
01:13:52Now,
01:13:53I need the two of you
01:13:55to focus
