From copilot to Captain
Category
🎥
Short filmTranscript
00:03I spent five years as Noah's co-pilot, and five more as his secret lover that couldn't be acknowledged.
00:10On our anniversary, his ex sent me a text.
00:20Guess which position we just unlocked.
00:24The photo showed the exact move Noah had me try in bed last week.
00:30That moment, I understood every trick he knew she'd taught him.
00:36I took a picture of the captain transfer papers I'd hidden for three months, and replied,
00:41Congrats!
00:42But while you are busy unlocking new positions, I am charting a flight path he'll never catch.
00:52Then I signed my name bound for Seattle.
00:54Captain of GF028.
00:57Five years of playing second fiddle ends here.
01:00From now on, I fly east.
01:02He flies west.
01:0430,000 feet up.
01:06Our paths will never cross.
01:09I am my own captain now.
01:16Skylar.
01:21An elite pilot.
01:23Like you should have been leading your own crew three years ago.
01:28Think it over these next few days.
01:30Do you want to keep being Noah's supporting act?
01:33Or seize the chance to become our first female captain?
01:40I'll give it serious thought.
01:44Five years.
01:46A full five years.
01:50Everyone at the company thought Noah and I were just the golden duo in the cockpit.
01:56Little did they know, we were just as compatible in bed.
02:04After graduating from flight school and joining the company,
02:07meeting Noah,
02:09we'd set one partnership record after another.
02:13Back then,
02:15Noah pursued me relentlessly.
02:18For my birthday,
02:19he spent three months designing a flight route
02:22that traced my name on the GPS map.
02:29Under Noah's constant devotion,
02:32I fell.
02:36To protect his career,
02:39the company prohibited relationships between captains and co-pilots.
02:47I agreed to keep things secret.
02:52By day, we piloted 787s together.
02:58Flying from New York to LA,
03:00crossing the entire American continent.
03:03By night, we shared a bed.
03:07His kisses ranging from passionate to tender.
03:11Introducing me to 81 different positions.
03:17Two people so perfectly matched,
03:19mentally and physically yet.
03:22Looking back now,
03:23all I taste is bitterness.
03:31Still up?
03:34Too many night flights.
03:37My sleep schedule's a mess.
03:40Got you a gift,
03:41on this last flight.
03:44Inside the box,
03:46a Cartier diamond bracelet lay on satin.
03:49Blindingly bright.
03:50Three months ago,
03:51I'd mentioned it casually on a plane.
03:54He remembered.
03:57I should have been moved,
03:59if I hadn't seen the same bracelet on Bella's Instagram two days ago.
04:06Captain Hunt has excellent taste.
04:09This Cartier bracelet symbolizes eternity.
04:12Did you and Noah get back together?
04:15This bracelet is so perfect on you!
04:18Don't read too much into it.
04:21Five years together,
04:23and only then did I learn that Bella was Noah's ex-girlfriend.
04:37No wonder at every team gathering,
04:39he always drove Bella home.
04:41While I,
04:43to hide our relationship,
04:45had to take cabs alone.
04:48What is wrong?
04:52Don't like it.
04:53I waited in line six hours to get it.
04:55Didn't you say you really wanted it on the plane?
04:59Don't really want it anymore.
05:05Just like,
05:06I don't really want this man I've loved for five years anymore.
05:10If it doesn't suit you,
05:12I'll get you something else next time.
05:15Next time,
05:16he'll buy me something else.
05:17Will Bella also get one first?
05:20Or will he buy two identical items?
05:24Pulling myself back to the present,
05:27my gaze fell on the application form the jewelry box was crushing,
05:31and I smiled bitterly.
05:34I deliberately placed this document in the most visible spot,
05:38yet Noah had completely ignored it.
05:41This unequal relationship,
05:43maybe it had been my one-woman show from the start.
05:50Robert,
05:51I accept the transfer.
05:53I am applying for the GF 028 route.
05:57GF 028 and Noah's 787
06:01go completely opposite directions.
06:03One east,
06:04one west.
06:08Choose this route,
06:09and your flight paths will never intersect.
06:13You sure?
06:16I am sure.
06:28Writing something?
06:32Flight dispatch for next time.
06:39If you are too tired,
06:41consider stopping flights.
06:42My salary is enough for us to live well anyway.
06:44Five years,
06:45and this man had never truly understood me.
06:48He knew I'd given up three promotion opportunities for him.
06:52He knew flying was my everything.
06:55Yet, he still said things like that.
06:59We'll see.
07:01It is fine.
07:02Just 14 more days,
07:04and I can leave Global United Airlines.
07:07Leave this man,
07:08who has never taken my dreams seriously.
07:12Back in the bedroom,
07:14I'd barely laid down when Noah's arm wrapped around me from behind.
07:18His palms sliding knowingly into my silk nightgown.
07:21My images flashed through my mind.
07:23Bella's Instagram photo showing her red painted nails,
07:28resting on Noah's wrist.
07:30Don't touch me!
07:35What is wrong?
07:37Not feeling well.
07:45Does this help?
07:47In the darkness,
07:49his tenderness felt so real,
07:51but so did the betrayal.
07:52If he really cared about me,
07:54why would he still be entangled with his ex-girlfriend?
07:58In the early morning,
08:00his phone on the nightstand lit up.
08:02I instinctively glanced over.
08:04It was a message from Bella.
08:06Remember number three on your 18-year-old wishlist?
08:10Rowboat in Central Park.
08:11I am waiting for you at the dock.
08:14My heart sank to the bottom.
08:16Last Saturday,
08:17Noah had just promised to take me to Central Park.
08:20I'd even booked a double rowboat.
08:22Turns out, not only did the ex get priority on gifts,
08:25even our date plans were hers to experience first.
08:31Something urgent with the crew.
08:32I need to go.
08:34I want to go to Central Park.
08:36Now.
08:37Next week.
08:39I am too busy this week.
08:41Next week, I'll take you.
08:44So I am just supposed to keep waiting!
08:47One text from his ex,
08:49and she is more important than all our plans.
08:52I turned back to the living room,
08:54looking at the entire wall of photos,
08:56feeling that familiar tightness in my chest again.
09:01A hundred photos,
09:03symbolizing our love lasting a hundred years!
09:07A hundred years.
09:10The promise had a much shorter shelf life than I'd imagined.
09:16Some people never forget your 18-year-old dreams.
09:20Number Central Park.
09:21Number Sunrise.
09:22Promise it kept.
09:24Noah!
09:25Slower!
09:26It hurts!
09:29So after the rowboat,
09:30there was an after party.
09:33Skylar!
09:34Where are all the photos?
09:37Fell down.
09:38Put them away.
09:40When I have time,
09:41we'll hang them together.
09:44Sadly.
09:45Photos can be rehung.
09:47But feelings can't.
09:58The next morning,
10:00I placed the signed promotion form on Robert's assistant's desk.
10:04Just as I was about to leave,
10:06the hallway intercom crackled.
10:08All crew members,
10:10please report immediately to conference hall.
10:13One.
10:13The new Purser arrives today.
10:16The Boeing 787 was getting a new Purser.
10:21So sudden?
10:26We're pleased to introduce
10:28our Boeing 787's new Purser,
10:31Bella Jones.
10:35Fate works in mysterious ways.
10:38Five years ago,
10:39when Noah first became captain,
10:41I was his Purser.
10:44After all this time,
10:46we get to fly together again.
10:47It must be destiny.
10:51Wow!
10:52They're totally meant for each other!
10:53Five years ago,
10:55they were just like this.
10:56Their chemistry stung my eyes.
10:58I quietly turned,
11:00and pushed through the heavy conference hall doors.
11:05That evening's welcome dinner
11:07was at an upscale restaurant
11:08in midtown Manhattan.
11:11I hadn't wanted to go.
11:13But several crew members dragged me along.
11:17Come on, Skylar.
11:18Everyone knows you've always liked Noah.
11:21But for the company's sake,
11:22at least make an appearance.
11:27I sat in a corner,
11:29watching Bella circulate like a hostess.
11:32She'd lean in to whisper to Noah,
11:34fingers lightly touching his shoulder.
11:37The scene was especially painful to watch.
11:40In public before,
11:41Noah never let me get that close.
11:44Now I understood those rules
11:46only applied to people he didn't love.
11:49I heard they were madly in love back then.
11:51When Bella was going to work in Dubai,
11:54Noah even wrote a resignation letter,
11:56if the flight director hadn't stopped him.
11:59And, you know, the most romantic part.
12:03When Noah wanted to propose,
12:05he specially requested a new route
12:08and confessed over the radio
12:10while crossing the Arctic Circle.
12:13Those flying memories, I thought,
12:15were uniquely ours.
12:17Turns out they were all reruns
12:18of someone else's story.
12:20The whole company knew about their romance.
12:23But no one knew about Noah
12:25and me these past five years.
12:28You must be Skylar.
12:30I am Bella.
12:32Consider me your senior.
12:35This double-edged comment was laughable.
12:38This woman who'd been provoking me with messages
12:40was now playing the first meeting card.
12:52Pleasure.
12:54Bella's smile froze for a moment,
12:56quickly recovering as she turned toward Noah.
12:59He was listening to her.
13:01His lips curved in that gentle arc
13:03I hadn't seen in weeks.
13:05Not once did he look in my direction.
13:08I couldn't take anymore
13:10and found an excuse to leave.
13:12Noah, your co-pilot doesn't seem to like me much.
13:16She left without even eating.
13:19Don't mind her.
13:20She's been pining after Noah for five years,
13:23playing second fiddle the whole time.
13:25Now that you are back,
13:27naturally she is uncomfortable.
13:29Don't say things like that.
13:32We'll all be colleagues going forward.
13:35So in everyone's eyes,
13:36I was just a pathetic woman,
13:38who couldn't get what she wanted.
13:41Fine.
13:42In eleven more days,
13:43this pathetic woman would vanish from their sight forever.
13:47After all,
13:48no one ever knew I was Noah's actual girlfriend.
13:54Skylar, you shouldn't have left like that.
13:57Bella is a new colleague after all.
13:59You made things very awkward for her.
14:03You care so much about her embarrassment.
14:06Is it because she is a new colleague?
14:09Or because she is your ex-girlfriend?
14:21Skylar, you have to trust me.
14:23That is all ancient history.
14:27These five years,
14:28you've been the only one by my side.
14:31His eyes held a panic I'd never seen before,
14:34making me momentarily dazed.
14:36Maybe he does care about me.
14:39But just then,
14:41Bella's voice came from behind.
14:44Noah!
14:45The arm around me suddenly released,
14:48and he jerked back like he'd been shocked.
14:50That movement was so fast like pure instinct,
14:53drawing an invisible boundary between us.
14:56In that moment,
14:57I finally understood the current girlfriend of five years
15:00couldn't compete with a returning ex.
15:03Go on.
15:04Don't keep her waiting.
15:05I thought I'd been mentally prepared.
15:08But when betrayal was laid out so nakedly,
15:11the heart still hurts.
15:15I curled up on the living room sofa,
15:18phone screen glowing on my face.
15:20My finger unconsciously clicked on Bella's Instagram.
15:23Her latest post was from 10 minutes ago.
15:26Caption,
15:26maximum boyfriend power,
15:28who says captains only fly planes.
15:30Number best support.
15:31Look that photo.
15:33I suddenly remembered last summer
15:35at the noisy Coney Island amusement park.
15:39Noah!
15:40I want to try it too!
15:46Don't do that, Skylar.
15:48It is not appropriate.
15:50Turns out it wasn't inappropriate.
15:53Just the wrong person.
15:55Don't cry, Skylar.
15:58Crying over unworthy people
16:00was letting myself down.
16:05Packing this late?
16:07Long flight next week.
16:10Getting things organized in advance.
16:14He's showing no suspicion.
16:17He even came over,
16:18bent down to check my suitcase lock,
16:20then click personally locked it for me.
16:28Alright, get some sleep.
16:30I looked at that suitcase he'd personally locked.
16:33My throat, suddenly tight.
16:36He'd never know this case didn't hold flight equipment.
16:39But my determination to leave.
16:50But my determination to leave.
16:52Today was my last flight as Noah's co-pilot.
16:55And Bella's maiden voyage as the 787's purser.
17:02How pathetic together with Noah five years.
17:06And he can't even publicly acknowledge you.
17:10Seems in his heart,
17:12you'll always be someone who can't see daylight.
17:17And know what?
17:19Noah told me that morning in Central Park.
17:24He said he missed our flying days together most.
17:29Thanks for your hard work these five years.
17:34Playing his assistant by day,
17:36his bed partner by night.
17:38But you must have noticed.
17:41His favorite positions were all ones.
17:44I taught him.
17:46If you want to say these things,
17:47you should tell Noah.
17:53Or can you only show off in front of me?
17:58Skylar,
17:59clinging to a man who doesn't love you.
18:02Don't you find it humiliating?
18:06Noah only has me in his heart.
18:09He is just killing time with you.
18:11The gifts he gave you were just styles I didn't want.
18:16Even the man himself,
18:18I used him first.
18:21You know what?
18:23Only he and I are the most compatible.
18:26Body and soul.
18:29Look at Bella,
18:31I suddenly finding this scene ridiculous.
18:34She expected to see me break down.
18:38But ever since I discovered those flirty texts on Noah's phone,
18:42my heart had withered like a dying flower.
18:45No amount of provocation could make it bloom again.
18:49Since you are so perfect together.
18:53I wish you both a happy reunion.
19:02From today on,
19:04my life would be like this sunshine,
19:06bright and warm.
19:12Flaps, five degrees.
19:18Flaps, five, check.
19:20Takeoff thrust, set.
19:22Thrust, set check.
19:25We coordinated as seamlessly as the past five years.
19:29But every command today carried farewell.
19:33This was the last time I'd sit on his right.
19:36From now on,
19:38I'd be the one holding the control column.
19:41Bringing every aircraft safely through takeoff and landing.
19:54At 35,000 feet,
19:56Noah engaged autopilot.
19:58We walked out of the cockpit one after another to patrol the cabin.
20:03Noah!
20:04Just then,
20:06the plane suddenly hit severe turbulence.
20:09An overhead bin door popped open,
20:11and a heavy suitcase fell straight down.
20:14Time stretched infinitely in that moment.
20:17I saw Noah instinctively pull Bella into his arms,
20:21while that case struck solidly on my right shoulder.
20:25Captain Skyler!
20:30First, go calm the passengers.
20:35Tell them this is just normal turbulence.
20:39Okay!
20:43Whose responsibility was this?
20:50Sorry.
20:51I just took something out,
20:53and might not have closed it properly.
20:56Can't handle even this basic operation!
20:59What if it had hit a passenger?
21:02Skyler,
21:03it was an accident.
21:05Don't be so harsh.
21:09At 35,000 feet,
21:12there is no such thing as accident,
21:14that what you said.
21:17I am disappointed, Relly!
21:24About what just happened,
21:27I am very sorry.
21:30But Bella was closer to me,
21:32I instinctively...
21:34It is fine.
21:36This is my last time flying the 787 with you anyway.
21:40You are angry about what just happened?
21:44No.
21:47Bella's been away from this position five years.
21:50She needs time to readjust.
21:52You shouldn't be too hard on her.
21:55Those words were like the final boulder,
21:57crushing the last hope in my heart.
22:00The one who made the mistake got tender protection,
22:03while the injured one was accused of being too harsh.
22:06The aching right shoulder felt like a prominent period,
22:10marking the end point of these five years.
22:14Sure enough,
22:15some routes
22:16are destined to be flown alone.
22:29After seven hours of flight,
22:31the plane landed smoothly at Anchorage Airport.
22:35After resting overnight at the airport hotel,
22:39Noah took me to see the Northern Lights as promised,
22:42except seeing the ever-present Bella,
22:46plus other crew members.
22:47The two hours...
22:49extinguished any anticipation in my heart.
22:53After Noah's relentless pestering,
22:55I finally agreed.
22:58When we reached the observation cabin,
23:01the Aurora happened to unfold its magnificent display
23:04across the night sky.
23:06Noah, remember?
23:10The first time we saw the Aurora,
23:13we had that big fight.
23:14You swore you'd bring me back.
23:20Thank you for always remembering that promise.
23:26I never forget promises I make to you.
23:30In that moment, it felt like an icy blade pierced my heart.
23:36So the person Noah always wanted,
23:39to share the Aurora with Wes Bella all along.
23:43And I was just a bystander he'd brought along.
23:49The final flights are complete.
23:51Awaiting instructions, sir.
23:54From today, you are no longer the 787's co-pilot,
23:59but captain of the GFO 28 route.
24:03Congratulations, Skyler.
24:06You're not only Aurora Airlines' youngest female captain,
24:09but also the pioneer of this new route.
24:17Skyler, why isn't your name on tomorrow's flight schedule?
24:25Been too tired lately.
24:27Requested a few days off.
24:30That is good.
24:32We promised to fly together until retirement.
24:35Skyler,
24:37Don't lie to me.
24:43When I return,
24:45it'll be New Year's.
24:47Let's go to Tokyo for the countdown.
24:52Don't want to.
24:55Then Reykjavik.
24:56Just the two of us.
24:59No.
25:01These five years,
25:03to hide our relationship.
25:06He always took me to distant cities,
25:09to celebrate.
25:11But this time,
25:13I only wanted to quietly wait for the day I'd leave for Seattle.
25:17Come on. Spill it.
25:19Any hidden dream destination?
25:21New Year's Eve.
25:23Come with me to Rockefeller Center.
25:26Why New York?
25:27We could go somewhere more special.
25:30Just some photos.
25:32You just play photographer.
25:35As you wish.
25:37After the company party,
25:39I'll definitely announce our relationship to everyone.
25:42Just give me a little more time.
25:46Go shower. It is late.
25:52Okay.
25:54Five years he always made me wait.
25:58But this time,
25:59I wouldn't wait anymore.
26:10The 31st of December.
26:14My last day countdown to leaving.
26:17I stood under the appointed starlights.
26:22Waiting from afternoon until dusk,
26:24from twilight deepening into night.
26:27But Noah never appeared.
26:32You!
26:34Skylar!
26:35Bella's having acute gastroenteritis!
26:38I am at the hospital with her!
26:45I'll come find you later!
26:58I'll come find you later!
27:05I'll come find you later!
27:06They say liars must swallow a thousand needles!
27:09How many times have you lied to me?
27:14So what if Noah wasn't here to take my picture?
27:18From now on,
27:20I'd be my own photographer.
27:23At 10pm, Noah finally called.
27:27Skylar, I'll be later.
27:30Find a cafe to sit and wait for me.
27:33Don't get cold.
27:36How much longer must I wait?
27:41I'll try to make it before midnight.
27:43Definitely spend New Years with you.
27:45Take your photos.
27:47I'll wait until midnight.
27:54I plan to say goodbye to him at midnight.
27:58Our last meeting.
27:59Hope he won't stand me up.
28:03Eleven o'clock.
28:05Eleven thirty.
28:07Eleven fifty-nine.
28:10Five, four, three, two!
28:14Happy New Year!
28:19Noah never appeared.
28:21Welcoming New Years with position 83.
28:23Times Square sky full of neon lighting up our twenties and thirties.
28:32Noah, I am leaving.
28:35Wishing you and Bella continued success, unlocking all 108 positions.
28:54Welcome, Captain Skylar! Happy New Year!
29:00Happy New Year!
29:02Looking forward to flying with you all!
29:04From now on, I was this plane's captain.
29:09Kennedy Tower, Aurora Airlines GFO 28 ready.
29:14Requesting maiden flight clearance.
29:16Tower copy.
29:17GF 28 cleared for takeoff.
29:20Safe skies, Captain Evans.
29:22Goodbye, Kennedy Tower!
29:28From now on, my life would follow GFO 28's route, never intersecting with Noah's.
29:46BELL RINGS
29:47BELL RINGS
29:48Damn it!
29:49I'd promised to meet Skylar, before midnight, for New Years.
29:53But I'd ultimately, broken my word.
29:57Is this, Bella's Instagram?
30:00What shocked him even more, was that every post Bella had been sharing was set to,
30:05hide from, Noah Hunter.
30:08Only now did he know, Bella had been harassing me behind his back all along.
30:17What are these?
30:20What is it?
30:22Noah, I've regretted these five years apart.
30:25I posted these, only because, I didn't want anyone between us.
30:31Let's get back together.
30:33We ended, long ago.
30:36From the day you left for that Dubai promotion, without looking back.
30:41Now, I love Skylar!
30:44You are lying!
30:46If you don't love me, why do you come every time I call?
30:50Why would you rather stay with me than keep your New Years date?
30:55I care for you, out of collegiality.
30:58More, as captain's responsibility.
31:02I don't believe it!
31:04Enough! Five years have passed. Everything's turned the page.
31:13I have a girlfriend, now.
31:15For you!
31:16Only professional courtesy remains.
31:19No! It is not like that!
31:22Noah, don't go!
31:24No, no, no, no, no!
31:26No!
31:30Skylar, I bought you cherries.
31:34Skylar?
31:40Noah, I am leaving.
31:42Wishing you and Bella continued success unlocking all 108 positions.
31:52The number you have dialed is out of service.
31:57Answer!
31:58Skylar, please answer!
32:02The number you have dialed is...
32:05The number you have dialed is...
32:05The number you have dialed is...
32:15Skylar!
32:16Where did you even go?!
32:36Robert! Where exactly did Skylar go?
32:39She got promoted to captain, and transferred to Aurora Airlines.
32:44Why are you looking for her?
32:47Transfer
32:48When?
32:49Why didn't she tell me?
32:53Before, even minor things like flight delays
32:56Skyler would share with me first
32:59Now such a major transfer
33:01And I knew nothing
33:02This
33:04Is Skyler's career choice
33:06Why should she tell you?
33:09Skyler was your co-pilot for five years
33:13Otherwise, with her abilities
33:15She could have been captain three years ago
33:19Skyler could have been promoted to captain three years ago
33:24She'd stayed in the co-pilot position to fly with me
33:27Can I help you?
33:32Please tell me where she is
33:34I need to find her
33:37What will you do finding her?
33:40She has her new route
33:41You have your flights to handle
33:48She is my girlfriend
33:50I need to bring her back
33:54You've been together all along?
33:57Never went public?
33:58Yes
33:59Five years
34:04Five years
34:06You both hid it quite well
34:09Look this
34:13Seattle?
34:16Thank you
34:17I need a few days leave
34:18I'm going to find her immediately
34:21Hmm
34:32Skyler
34:33Having lived with you for five years
34:36Only now did I discover
34:37You had long since taken root in my heart
34:41If I had gone public earlier
34:44You might never have left me
34:49Five years
34:52Skyler Evans, my love
34:54Five years?
34:56Skyler and Noah
34:57Have been together five years
34:59Didn't Noah always like Bella?
35:01Why the sudden announcement?
35:03Quick
35:03Them and ask
35:05What is going on?
35:07When did Skyler leave the group?
35:09Who wouldn't leave?
35:10Skyler was the underground girlfriend for five years
35:13The moment Bella came back
35:15Noah changed his attitude
35:17Drawing clear lines in front of everyone
35:19I'd leave too
35:21Who could take that?
35:24I never meant to distance myself
35:27Just wanted to wait a bit longer
35:30I was wrong
35:31Terribly
35:33Terribly wrong
35:34Skyler
35:45While Noah handled Handover Matters in New York
35:48I'd already piloted GFO-28
35:51Smoothly landing on Seattle-Tacoma Airport's runway
35:58Aurora Airlines GFO-28 calling Seattle Tower
36:04Go ahead
36:09GFO-28 requesting taxi instructions
36:12Surface wind 230 degrees at 5 knots
36:16Use taxiway
36:17O-1 left to gate 3
36:19H-GFO-28
36:21Welcome to Seattle
36:24Thank you
36:25Seattle Tower
36:28Welcome to Seattle Tower's greeting was quite enthusiastic today
36:32Captain Evans
36:35Crew members prepare to welcome banquet at Pilot's Home
36:39Hoping you'll lead us in opening this new route
36:41Okay
36:47Liam
36:48Let me reintroduce myself
36:52Liam Carter
36:53Your Seattle air traffic controller
36:56No wonder on the plane
36:57I'd found the tower voice both pleasant and familiar
37:03So it really was Liam
37:05He'd been my senior at flight school two years ahead
37:07A campus celebrity even then
37:11I'd always thought he'd become an outstanding captain
37:15Never imagined he'd chosen air traffic control
37:21Liam
37:21Liam, hello
37:26Sorry
37:26I just didn't expect to run into you here
37:33We few are really fated
37:34Same flight school graduates
37:36Now in the same crew
37:38Back then
37:39I secretly shipped you two as a couple
37:41Shame
37:41It ended badly
37:44What do you mean ended badly?
37:47Our captain Skylar later fell for her instructor
37:50Too bad
37:52That guy wasn't very reliable
37:54Those words were like a fine needle
37:57Piercing my heart
37:58Those memories of Noah rushed in the initial flutter
38:02Five years of devotion
38:05Final betrayal
38:07Enough
38:07This was enough
38:11Back then
38:11Liam always
38:15Ryan, try this
38:21Seven years ago
38:22We'd made a bet
38:23The loser had to grant the winner a request
38:26Confident
38:27Confident I'd win
38:28I'd agreed to his condition of knitting a scarf
38:31Result
38:32I lost completely
38:33Forced to grit my teeth and knit this scarf with crooked stitches
38:37I'd never imagined that years later
38:39He'd still kept it
38:43This scarf
38:46Yeah
38:46It is the one you gave me
38:51That was so long ago
38:54Not long for me
38:56Especially since it was something you gave me
38:58His tone was calm yet
39:00Like a pebble dropped into my heart's lake
39:14Just as I stepped off the plane
39:16I heard that familiar voice behind me
39:20Skylar!
39:29What are you doing here?
39:32I came to bring you home
39:35Home?
39:37In what capacity?
39:39Your secret lover you hid for five years?
39:42Or the third wheel between you and Bella?
39:45I'd already seen his social media posts
39:48But only found them laughable
39:51He'd demanded the underground relationship
39:56Now he was performing deep affection
39:59Look
40:00Every day
40:01I am posting to tell everyone you are my girlfriend
40:05Enough!
40:07What is the point now?
40:09We ended long ago
40:12No, we can't end
40:14Bella and I really have nothing
40:16Those were all misunderstandings
40:20None of that matters anymore
40:24We're not compatible
40:26I don't want to see snow
40:27And remember standing alone in Times Square
40:30Until dawn on New Year's Eve
40:34Noah, go back
40:38That night
40:39I was because
40:42Because you left her alone in Sub-Zero streets
40:45To spend New Year's Eve with another woman
40:47Right?
40:50Liam
40:51What are you doing here?
40:55Coming to back her up
40:57This isn't your business!
40:59Let her go!
41:02I warned you back at flight school
41:04If you truly cared for her
41:06Cherish her properly
41:07What did you do?
41:10This is between Skylar and me!
41:15Now it is my business
41:20Skylar
41:21Give me a chance to pursue you, okay?
41:38Don't joke around
41:40Do you want to keep being harassed by him?
41:43He was doing this to help me completely break free from Noah
41:46Samona
41:46As outstanding as him
41:49How could he possibly
41:50Actually be interested in me?
41:54Go back
41:55I am with Liam now
41:57We ended long ago
42:00We never officially broke up!
42:02How can-
42:03Didn't you also immediately go find Bella?
42:05After she came back?
42:07Ah
42:10I
42:12Let's go
42:21Is this
42:23Bella's USB drive?
42:28Oh my god!
42:30Bella had been leaking the company's trade secrets
42:33To competitors!
42:34Even more shocking
42:36A folder named Plan
42:38Contained detailed records
42:39Of how she'd meticulously orchestrated
42:41Every chance encounter
42:42And those seemingly intimate photos
42:45Were actually staged
42:46While he was drunk
42:47Under her manipulation
42:48Those ambiguous private messages
42:50Were all her carefully scripted lines
42:52What angered him most
42:54She'd even contacted
42:55Several tabloid media outlets
42:57Preparing to expose
42:59Global Airlines Captain Two
43:00Timing News
43:01Attempting to completely destroy
43:03His career and love life
43:09Bella!
43:17Didn't expect you to initiate meeting me
43:22Uh
43:23What is this?
43:28What is the point
43:30Forging these?
43:31Need me to hand these
43:32To the company's security department
43:34For authenticity verification
43:40Or
43:40Directly
43:41To the police
43:50Let me explain!
43:53Explain what?
43:54Explain how you calculatedly destroyed
43:57My relationship with Skylar
44:00Explain how you used my trust
44:02To steal company's secrets
44:04It is all because of her
44:06I loved you so much
44:08Came back from Dubai for you
44:11But you only had eyes for her
44:14So
44:15You retaliated this way
44:18Do you know this could ruin
44:20So many people's careers?
44:21I don't care
44:24What I can't have
44:26No one else should
44:27We're finished
44:29You'll pay for your actions
44:35The next day
44:36Noah brought all evidence
44:38To the company's security department
44:41Simultaneously
44:41The company's lawyer
44:43Sent termination letters
44:44To Bella's residence
44:46A week later
44:47Police officially arrested Bella
44:49On charges of commercial fraud
44:51And defamation
44:51The news quickly spread
44:54Through aviation circles
44:56Noah cooperated with police
44:58As key witness
44:59To complete the investigation
45:00Walking from the station
45:02He happened to see an Aurora Airlines
45:04Aircraft streak
45:05Across the blue sky
45:07GFO 28
45:09Skylar must be in the cockpit right now
45:13Confidently
45:14Gripping the controls
45:16In that moment
45:17His heart felt both
45:18Stabbing pain
45:19And strange relief
45:20That girl
45:21Who once stood behind him
45:23Had now flown
45:24Toward broader skies
45:27Noah didn't go to Seattle again
45:30He spent an entire week
45:31Handwriting
45:32A long letter
45:35Dear Skylar
45:36You taught me what love is
45:38What responsibility means
45:41You gave up three promotion opportunities
45:43For me
45:44Yet I was blind
45:47You endured five years
45:49As my secret girlfriend
45:51Yet
45:51I took it for granted
45:54Now you are flying freely
45:55While I've finally learned
45:56To let go
45:58May you forever
45:59Soar
46:00In your own blue skies
46:27Oh my god
46:28The right engine's out
46:30Shut down right engine
46:32Follow emergency procedures
46:34Engine shut down
46:36Skylar we only have one engine now
46:39Don't panic
46:40I'll handle it
46:44Passengers
46:44This is captain Skylar
46:46The aircraft has encountered
46:48Some technical issues we're addressing
46:49Please remain calm
46:50And keep seat belts fastened
46:54My god
46:56Single engine
46:57Not enough fuel
46:58To reach Tokyo
46:59Then we won't go to Tokyo
47:01How far to Anchorage
47:04400 plus nautical miles
47:06Just barely enough fuel
47:08If everything goes smoothly
47:12Anchorage airport
47:13This is GFO 28
47:15We need emergency landing
47:18GFO 28
47:20Stage your situation
47:21Right engine failure
47:23182 souls on board
47:25Requesting immediate landing
47:27Estimated arrival in 35 minutes
47:31Copy
47:32Runway cleared for you
47:34Emergency crew standing by
47:35The plane began descending
47:38Missing one engine
47:39The entire aircraft tilted right
47:42I had to constantly adjust
47:44To maintain balance
47:48Fuel warning
47:49Don't panic
47:51Don't panic
47:52Ryan
47:52Follow my lead
47:53Take deep breaths
47:55We can do this
47:56I said for Ryan
47:58And myself
48:01Land finally appeared
48:02Outside the window
48:03Anchorage
48:04I'd never found this name
48:06So beautiful
48:08GFO 28
48:09Turn left
48:10Descend to 3000 feet
48:13Copy
48:14This was the most dangerous moment
48:17Single engine landing
48:19No second chances
48:20200 feet
48:23100 feet
48:2510 feet
48:26Finally
48:28The plane stopped
48:50GFO 28
48:52Welcome to Anchorage
48:53Well done, Captain
48:57Skylar
49:00You just saved everyone
49:02Those 35 minutes felt like a century
49:06I truly felt death's proximity for the first time
49:10And for the first time
49:12I felt
49:13I could hold up the sky on my own
49:16All those voices saying
49:18I wasn't calm enough
49:20Didn't deserve to be captain
49:23Now they could all shut up
49:24Three days after the engine failure incident
49:27Aurora Airlines held a celebration banquet for me
49:32Liam stayed by my side all evening
49:36Deflecting drinks
49:37Serving food
49:39Attentive beyond ignoring
49:52Skylar
49:53Skylar
49:54There is something I must to tell you
49:59I like you
50:00I've liked you since the day I first saw you
50:02For a full seven years
50:05Seven years?
50:07Watching you with Noah every day was torture
50:12But I thought as long as you were happy
50:14Now you are finally free
50:17I don't want to miss this chance
50:22Liam
50:24I know you might not be ready
50:27But Skylar
50:28Give me a chance to prove love
50:30Doesn't have to be a burden
50:32I'm eating his determined gaze
50:34I think about Liam's seven year vigil
50:38Noah's five year dismissiveness
50:41What I truly wanted
50:44What if I am not sure I can love you
50:46Then I'll work to make you love me
50:50Let's try
50:52Thank you
50:54Skylar
51:06The next day at work
51:07My inbox held two emails
51:10One was from the company's HR department
51:13Promoted to director of flight standards
51:15In recognition of outstanding performance
51:18The other email was from Noah
51:22In his letter
51:23He congratulated me on my promotion
51:25And thanked me for helping him become a better person
51:28Additionally
51:29He has accepted a transfer to the Africa route
51:32And will depart next week
51:33I stared at the screen for a long time
51:35Finally replying four words
51:38Take care
51:43Three years later
51:53Long time no see
52:01Long time
52:07Heard you are getting married
52:13Next month
52:20Liam is a good man
52:21Much better than me
52:28The past is past
52:29Yes
52:31Past
52:36My flight's boarding
52:38Wishing you happiness
52:39Sincerely
52:40You too
52:57Why'd you come?
52:59Ryan said you ran into Noah in Paris
53:08Worried you'd be upset
53:11You are not bothered
53:14Why would I be?
53:17He is the past
53:18I am the present and future
53:26Liam
53:26I love you
53:30I love you too
