00:00:03Miss Ri, your ovaries aren't doing their best lately, this could be the start of ovarian failure.
00:00:09Ovarian failure? I mean, I'm so young. Is this gonna mess with me having kids?
00:00:14I always wanted to be a mom.
00:00:16If you want a child, it's medically advisable to do so within the next six months.
00:00:21Through everything, here we stand.
00:00:25Babe, meet you at X Hotels, 3.02 at 7 p.m.
00:00:29Got a surprise for you.
00:00:34Ethan loves me so much, maybe...
00:00:37Maybe it's not such a bad idea to have a baby sooner rather than later.
00:00:43No, I'm gonna tell him now.
00:00:45Yeah, okay.
00:00:49Oh!
00:01:04Early ovarian failure at 25, if someone sees this, die of embarrassment.
00:01:12Sorry.
00:01:13Are you okay?
00:01:14Yeah, I'm fine.
00:01:22I'm fine.
00:01:33Oh my god!
00:01:35Lila!
00:01:37You said you'd be back at 7.
00:01:38Cheating?
00:01:39Is this the big surprise you had planned for me?
00:01:44Oh, you're such a buzzkill.
00:01:47You always said you wanted to try something new?
00:01:49Come join us.
00:01:53You always said you wanted to try something new?
00:01:55Come join us.
00:01:57Three years.
00:01:58You know, I wasted three years on you.
00:02:01God, I'm such an idiot.
00:02:03You know, I was planning on having a baby.
00:02:05A baby.
00:02:06A baby.
00:02:08Sweetheart.
00:02:17You really think I'd marry you for your cheap love over legs like these?
00:02:23You know what?
00:02:26We're done.
00:02:28Six months?
00:02:29What, am I just supposed to find some random guy to get me pregnant?
00:02:42I don't need a man to have my dreams come true.
00:02:46One appointment, one sperm donor, and I can have my own baby.
00:02:58Six months to produce an heir, or I lose control of Crawford Industries to my nephew.
00:03:04Everything I've built over the last decade, gone.
00:03:07Well, sir, the surrogate candidates have all been vetted thoroughly.
00:03:11I mean, Ivy League graduates, impeccable health histories.
00:03:17I don't need resumes.
00:03:18I need someone who won't turn this into a media circus.
00:03:21Find me someone who knows their place.
00:03:23Someone who will quietly disappear after they give birth.
00:03:30You.
00:03:34Miss, are you here for the interview?
00:03:36Oh, um...
00:03:38Right, well, let's get started.
00:03:43Um...
00:03:43Education background?
00:03:45Excuse me?
00:03:46And I'm going to need a complete medical history.
00:03:48Family genetic conditions, mostly.
00:03:50Um...
00:03:51Do you exercise regularly?
00:03:52You look...
00:03:56Acceptable.
00:03:57Do you have any idea who I am?
00:04:00I'm just being thorough.
00:04:02This is about making a healthy baby, after all.
00:04:07Gosh, why are men always so full of themselves?
00:04:09Um...
00:04:11Um, sir, I don't care if you're Brad Pitt.
00:04:13I need to know about your...
00:04:15Reproductive history.
00:04:17Sexual partners in the last six months?
00:04:19Mr. Crawford, I can show her out.
00:04:21It's okay.
00:04:22Thompson, you can leave us.
00:04:23Okay.
00:04:24What are you doing?
00:04:32I'm making sure this is...
00:04:34Thorough.
00:04:52I'm making sure this is...
00:04:55Thorough.
00:04:55That performance has never been a problem.
00:04:57Now that Thompson's gone, are you comfortable sharing yours?
00:05:01Um...
00:05:01Of course.
00:05:02Uh...
00:05:03I'm perfectly healthy, too.
00:05:04Uh...
00:05:05No genetic conditions.
00:05:06I get checkups regularly.
00:05:08I even started taking prenatal vitamins.
00:05:12Good.
00:05:12I...
00:05:13I have to say...
00:05:14You're a perfect match.
00:05:16How about...
00:05:16In regards to compensation, have you got a figure in mind?
00:05:20Well, I was thinking...
00:05:22Eight hundred?
00:05:23Dollars.
00:05:24Eight hundred dollars?
00:05:26Well...
00:05:28I was expecting a figure...
00:05:30Much higher than that.
00:05:32I know it's not much, but...
00:05:33You know...
00:05:35Considering the quality, and...
00:05:37And I could help out in other ways.
00:05:38I could do your paperwork, or...
00:05:41Thompson, bring in the contracts.
00:05:52Are you serious?
00:05:55All this?
00:05:56Take your time reviewing, but the key point is...
00:05:58After birth, the child stays with me.
00:06:00No contact.
00:06:01Are you...
00:06:02Are you kidding me?
00:06:03You wanna keep my baby?
00:06:06Are you kidding me?
00:06:07You wanna keep my baby?
00:06:09My baby?
00:06:10My baby?
00:06:11Is this some kind of sick joke?
00:06:13That's standard procedure for a surrogacy agreement.
00:06:16Surrogacy what?
00:06:17Surrogacy?
00:06:18The position that you're interviewing for.
00:06:20Interviewing?
00:06:20No, I came here to buy sperm.
00:06:23You came to what?
00:06:28Oh my God.
00:06:31I?
00:06:34I...
00:06:34I thought you were a donor.
00:06:36That is why I came here asking you all those questions about your...
00:06:40Qualifications.
00:06:41And I thought you were applying to be my surrogate.
00:06:45I am...
00:06:47So sorry about all the confusion.
00:06:49I...
00:06:51I'm gonna go.
00:06:55A million dollars.
00:06:57For caring my child.
00:07:04I want my own baby, Mr. Crawford.
00:07:07Not somebody else's.
00:07:13Next.
00:07:20Miss Reed.
00:07:22Your father.
00:07:23You need to come now.
00:07:27Miss Reed.
00:07:28Miss Reed.
00:07:36Your father.
00:07:37You need to come now.
00:07:39I'm not afraid to die.
00:07:42I'm just afraid...
00:07:44To leave you...
00:07:46Alone.
00:07:47Dad?
00:07:49Dad.
00:07:50Doctor!
00:07:51Help!
00:07:52Please!
00:08:01Doctor, my father.
00:08:02How is he?
00:08:03The cancer has spread aggressively.
00:08:05Without immediate treatment.
00:08:06Then treat him.
00:08:08Now.
00:08:08The full course of treatment will cost approximately one million dollars.
00:08:14Aristocratic etiquette training.
00:08:16Influencer.
00:08:17Bachelor in economics.
00:08:19Yeah, right.
00:08:20She's underage.
00:08:21Is this the last batch?
00:08:22Yes, sir.
00:08:23The brunette asked about ring sizes.
00:08:25Blonde.
00:08:26Well, she asked about moving names.
00:08:28And the redhead.
00:08:29All of them just want the Crawford name.
00:08:32But none of them are suitable.
00:08:38This one...
00:08:41Was refreshing.
00:08:42She was real.
00:08:44No schemes.
00:08:46Well, Mr. Crawford.
00:08:47She wasn't here for servicing.
00:08:48Sometimes the best candidates aren't looking for the job.
00:08:51Oh my God.
00:08:52A million dollars?
00:08:53I...
00:08:55Maybe I could get a loan?
00:09:00A million dollars.
00:09:03For carrying my child.
00:09:17Hello?
00:09:18Byleth Reed.
00:09:19This is Adrienne Crawford.
00:09:26I saw her thinking.
00:09:31About the other day.
00:09:32I think I may have been...
00:09:35A little hasty.
00:09:36You're reconsidering?
00:09:37Don't look so smug.
00:09:38I just...
00:09:43I have my reasons.
00:09:45As do I.
00:09:47I'd like to propose a modification to the original terms.
00:09:54What kind of modification?
00:09:56Joint custody.
00:09:58As well as carrying the child you'd be.
00:10:01It's mother.
00:10:04Why would you do that?
00:10:06You're direct.
00:10:07Honest.
00:10:08No hidden agendas.
00:10:10Qualities I want in my child's mother.
00:10:15So...
00:10:16I'd really be a part of the baby's life?
00:10:19Yes.
00:10:20But just to be clear.
00:10:22We'll be parents.
00:10:23Nothing more.
00:10:25No emotional entanglements.
00:10:26No romantic expectations.
00:10:28Please don't flatter yourself.
00:10:32Father.
00:10:34The board is getting impatient.
00:10:36Have you considered the arrangement that I suggested?
00:10:40I have my own plans.
00:10:42Hey.
00:10:42If you're thinking of using some random surrogate to produce an error.
00:10:47Forget it.
00:10:48The Crawford name means something.
00:10:51I won't have it tainted by...
00:10:54I've already chosen my fiancΓ©.
00:10:57What?
00:10:58I will talk about it again.
00:11:00I'm sorry.
00:11:02Did you just promote me from surrogate to fiancΓ©?
00:11:07Did you just promote me from surrogate to fiancΓ©?
00:11:12Didn't somebody just say, just parents, nothing more?
00:11:17The situation requires...
00:11:20adaptation.
00:11:21Is that CEO speak for I changed my mind?
00:11:25You'll need a convincing story.
00:11:26You'll stay at my house during the pregnancy.
00:11:29Okay.
00:11:32What about after?
00:11:33We'll arrange an amicable split.
00:11:35Continue co-parenting.
00:11:37I'll provide additional compensation for the complexity.
00:11:41No, the original map is fine.
00:11:42It's just...
00:11:46I do need it soon.
00:11:50So?
00:12:19Welcome to the family, Ms. Reid.
00:12:22We were heightened.
00:12:48My whole apartment could fit in his hallway.
00:12:55Well, well.
00:12:57Missed me so much you had to track me down.
00:13:02Couldn't get over me, huh?
00:13:05Had to follow me here like a lost puppy dog.
00:13:09Father, did you know I didn't...
00:13:11Wait, what are you doing here?
00:13:13What am I doing here?
00:13:14Sweetheart, you should know better.
00:13:16This is my family's home.
00:13:21You were so mad last time I saw you.
00:13:24Now I find you wandering around.
00:13:28I finally realized what you were missing, huh?
00:13:30Get your hands off me.
00:13:33Plain hard to get.
00:13:35Now that was cute before, but now...
00:13:39Come on, baby.
00:13:41This is what you really came in for.
00:13:44Alright?
00:13:49Uncle!
00:13:51What are you doing?
00:13:52I need your filthy hands off of my fiancee.
00:13:58Fiancee?
00:13:59Uncle?
00:14:04Fiancee?
00:14:05No way.
00:14:07She is just...
00:14:08Shut your mouth.
00:14:10Show some respect to your future aunt.
00:14:13Come on.
00:14:15This is crazy.
00:14:17You seriously don't know.
00:14:22I won't repeat myself.
00:14:24Stay away from my fiancee.
00:14:28One more word and you can kiss your trust fund goodbye.
00:14:38Bye.
00:14:45Are you alright?
00:14:46Yeah.
00:14:47Yeah, I'm fine.
00:14:50I just...
00:14:53Ethan's your nephew?
00:14:54And he's your...
00:14:57Well...
00:14:58He may have been kinda...
00:15:01My boyfriend.
00:15:03Ex!
00:15:04Ex-boyfriend.
00:15:05Very ex. Extremely ex.
00:15:07I see.
00:15:09Thompson will bring your things up shortly.
00:15:11Thanks.
00:15:13Um...
00:15:14Where will I be staying?
00:15:16Here.
00:15:22What?
00:15:23Unless you prefer explaining to the staff why the happy couple are sleeping in separate rooms.
00:15:28Oh.
00:15:31Right.
00:15:32Fake engagement.
00:15:34Real roommates.
00:15:37This is the line.
00:15:39Don't cross it.
00:15:40Ever.
00:15:42Good.
00:15:43Didn't want you to.
00:15:44Good.
00:15:45I won't.
00:15:45Okay.
00:16:00See?
00:16:01My brilliant plan work.
00:16:06Wait.
00:16:07How did I...
00:16:08What?
00:16:10Sir, our new project in Singapore has been blooming.
00:16:13I mean, we have some meetings for you to attend, to discuss our future plans with the board members.
00:16:18Sir?

00:16:27Jesus Christ.
00:16:29You okay?

00:21:23Don't worry about me, okay?
00:21:24As long as we can get you better,
00:21:27I will let the words get to me.
00:21:29I promise.
00:21:38Mila, what happened?
00:21:41What should I do?
00:21:54How's the happy couple today?
00:22:03This is awkward.
00:22:13No worries.
00:22:14It's just a small pinch.
00:22:15That is not small.
00:22:22It's okay.
00:22:23Over here.
00:22:31It's the perfect timing for the injection.
00:22:42Mr. Crawford, it is your time for the sperm collection.
00:22:46Okay.
00:22:47How do we do this?
00:22:48What equipment do we need?
00:22:49No need.
00:22:50Just head to the collection room and use your hand.
00:22:53Okay.
00:22:54Okay.
00:22:55Okay.
00:22:57Okay.
00:22:58Okay.
00:22:59Okay.
00:23:02Okay.
00:23:15And pretend she's not right out that door.
00:23:21Mr. Crawford, are you all right in there?
00:23:26I'm fine.
00:23:27I just, uh, need some assistance.
00:23:32Oh, do you need help?
00:23:34What?
00:23:34No, wait.
00:23:34I didn't mean...
00:23:35Are you sure?
00:23:36I can come in there.
00:23:40Um.
00:23:45Okay.
00:23:46Come in.
00:23:47Come in.
00:23:49Come in.
00:23:50Come in.
00:23:51Come in.
00:23:51Come in.
00:23:52Come in.
00:23:52Come in.
00:23:52Come in.
00:23:59So...
00:24:00You want to help?
00:24:01Yeah, what can I?
00:24:04Oh, my God.
00:24:06You thought...
00:24:07No, no, I didn't.
00:24:09Um, I didn't.
00:24:11I, um...
00:24:11I'm...
00:24:13I'm...
00:24:13I'm gonna go.
00:24:15I'm gonna go.
00:24:16I'm gonna go so far away.
00:24:19Helpful.
00:24:34Are you okay?
00:24:36Dr. Anderson said the hormone shots might hurt a little, but...
00:24:39You're in pain.
00:24:40It's just some discomfort. It'll pass. I'll be okay.
00:24:49Here, this should help.
00:24:57Dr. Anderson said the hormone shots were part of the agreement, so any resulting discomfort
00:25:14is technically a work-related issue. And as your employer, I have a duty of care.
00:25:21Dr. Anderson said the hormone shots were part of the agreement, so any resulting discomfort
00:25:22below the agreement begins Π±ΠΎΠ»ΡΡΠΎΠΉ, since he was inside theAmerican community.
00:25:39There are two innings and here's the first treatment myΕlΔ, as if that happened.
00:25:42Dr. Anderson said nothing, crazy.
00:25:46Oh my god!
00:25:51Dr. Anderson says 15aphlyn Strangeanalysis
00:25:52He corresponds with him with a real fΓsica
00:25:56PURELY PROFESSIONAL CARE
00:26:25Adrian, wait. About this weekend.
00:26:27Sorry, emergency in Atlanta. The merger's falling apart.
00:26:30But...
00:26:30Thompson, have the jet ready in 20.
00:26:32Your family invited me to dinner. Now you know what?
00:26:36I can do it myself.
00:26:40I don't suppose that we could expect punctuality
00:26:44from someone who has never owned a watch in her entire life.
00:26:50I introduced him to the Thompson Arons.
00:26:54Senator's daughter.
00:26:55I don't know why he picked this gold digger from God knows where.
00:27:00Ethan, what did you say that she does? A fashion designer?
00:27:05Worse.
00:27:07Seamstress.
00:27:09She probably thinks having the proper family do her name
00:27:12will raise her to the top and then she can have her own fashion show.
00:27:15If she's poor, fine.
00:27:18But no sense of time either.
00:27:21I need to have a serious talk with Adrian.
00:27:23Probably just digging through her wardrobe.
00:27:25Can't find something to wear.
00:27:27A fashion designer scrounging around for an outfit. How ironic.
00:27:32Maybe her designs are just too embarrassing to be seen in public.
00:27:36Okay.
00:27:37But seriously.
00:27:39I mean, I do pity her, right?
00:27:42Her worthless clothing and our beautiful home.
00:27:45I mean, it must be incredibly humiliating.
00:27:50Go get her now.
00:27:52No, you're up.
00:27:53Fuck.
00:27:56I lay down.
00:27:58Every single,
00:28:01every part of me.
00:28:05I'm yours.
00:28:12Through every single flu,
00:28:14Apologies for the delay.
00:28:24my my my trying hard to get the part
00:28:29james make sure none of the silver is missing after dinner
00:28:36at least we know that adrian's credit card is being put to good use
00:28:44although money can buy you designer clothing it can't buy you a good upbringing
00:28:50actually made the dress myself the little seamstress that you are how quaint
00:28:57at least we know who will be darning adrian's socks
00:29:04you know i wasn't brought up into wealth but i was raised with something far more valuable

00:39:30Whatever I want?
00:39:48What in the...
00:39:49What are you doing?
00:39:52This is junk food.
00:39:54Like these have zero nutritional value.
00:39:57You can't take those.
00:39:59The baby wants chocolate.
00:40:01The baby wants chocolate.
00:40:03And chips.
00:40:05And chips.
00:40:06And ice cream.
00:40:07You wouldn't deny anyone.
00:40:09I've been doing research into optimal pregnancy nutrition.
00:40:13Okay?
00:40:13Week by week,
00:40:15what you should be having every day.
00:40:16I've got a meal plan,
00:40:17breakfast, lunch.
00:40:18Uh, how about a compromise?
00:40:21One treat per day.
00:40:23Half a treat.
00:40:24Three quarters?
00:40:35Congratulations.
00:40:36The feet have been stable and developing perfectly.
00:40:39Really?
00:40:41Really?
00:40:45Everything looks wonderful.
00:40:46Now that we are in a stable period,
00:40:48I would like to discuss some prenatal care.
00:40:53Okay.
00:40:55Let's lie down.
00:40:57Yeah.
00:40:57Yes.
00:40:58I...
00:40:59I got it.
00:40:59I can do it myself.
00:41:04Maybe you should call the doctor.
00:41:08Yeah.
00:41:09Yeah.
00:41:10Dr. Anderson.
00:41:10Yeah, we're ready.
00:41:12I'm putting you on speaker.
00:41:15First,
00:41:16remove the clothes.
00:41:21Now,
00:41:22exposing your legs.
00:41:25Apply the oil and gently massage her muscles with your palm.
00:41:42You know,
00:41:42I'm actually feeling kind of sick.
00:41:46Sorry.

00:41:53gonna go.
00:41:55All right.
00:41:55I'm gonna go.
00:41:59Sorry, Dr. Anderson.
00:42:01We might have to try this again sometime.
00:42:02Yeah.
00:42:05Bye.
00:42:16The Charity Gala is in the test.
00:42:18Your dad requests specifically that I attend.
00:42:22And you look perfect.
00:42:35Just be yourself.
00:42:49Adrian,
00:42:51it's been so long.
00:42:52Um,
00:42:55you look exactly the same.
00:43:02You look exactly the same.
00:43:09You look exactly the same.
00:43:18Just someone who wants Adrian's happiness.
00:43:22More than anything.
00:43:26Oh my God.
00:43:28You two are finally back together.
00:43:30Everyone.
00:43:31Look,
00:43:31who is here?
00:43:32The golden couple.
00:43:35I heard Adrian Crawford was engaged.
00:43:39I knew.
00:43:40It must be you, Vivian.
00:43:42Perfect match.
00:43:44Just like a Harvard.
00:43:46Where's your wedding?
00:43:54Actually,
00:43:55I'd like everyone to meet my fiancee.
00:43:57Lila Reed.
00:43:58We're expecting our first child.
00:44:01And yes,
00:44:02you're all invited to the wedding.
00:44:08She's pregnant?
00:44:10I'm so sorry.
00:44:12I just assumed.
00:44:15My congratulations to you, bro.
00:44:17I wanted to get on.
00:44:18I want to talk to you.
00:44:19But it's.
00:44:20Marginal.
00:44:21We've had a couple of things.
00:44:30They could be so judgmental, can't they?
00:44:33Don't take it personally, dear.
00:44:42You two look like the perfect couple.
00:44:51Drinking.
00:44:53Thought you were pregnant.
00:44:55That's none of your business.
00:44:58Do you even know the true Adrian?
00:45:00I tell you he's someone who cares a lot about love.
00:45:03What do you want?
00:45:07Look.
00:45:10Are they the perfect couple?
00:45:12You know, he'd do anything for her.
00:45:15Even save her from the pains of childbirth.
00:45:20Yeah.
00:45:22They've been real happy ever since she got back.
00:45:27Get it now, don't you?
00:45:30He's just using you to have a baby so that she doesn't have to.
00:45:34You're so naive.
00:45:35What do you mean?
00:45:38So I'm just a tool to have a baby?
00:45:48I don't want my fiance thinking there's anything between it.
00:46:06What do you think you're doing?
00:46:08You're pregnant.
00:46:09What are you drinking?
00:46:11Why do you care?
00:46:13It's soda, okay?
00:46:14I know what I'm doing.
00:46:23What happened back there?
00:46:25Talk to me.
00:46:27Lila, I'm worried.
00:46:29What, so you'll talk to Ethan but not me?
00:46:32When you were having such a lovely chat with your girlfriend back there,
00:46:36did you even notice I was there?
00:46:42Lila, I'm worried about you.
00:46:45Worried about me?
00:46:46Or worried about your baby?
00:46:51Worried about me?
00:46:52Or worried about your baby?
00:46:53What's that supposed to mean, Amy?
00:46:55You know, is that why you've been so nice to me?
00:46:56All of a sudden, giving me snacks and being protected?
00:46:59What, because of carrying your child?
00:47:01Lila, why are you acting so weird since yesterday?
00:47:04Did you date Vivian?
00:47:05Yes.
00:47:06And now she wants to get back together with you?
00:47:08Yes.
00:47:08So what, am I just some replacement for her?
00:47:10Is that why you were looking for a surrogate?
00:47:12Yes, I wanted a surrogate, but it wasn't for Vivian.
00:47:15No, you know what, I get it.
00:47:17Follow the contract, have your baby.

01:10:41Hey.
01:10:43Hi.
01:10:44Beautiful.
01:10:50Yeah, it is.
01:11:00Lilo, were you?
01:11:02Yes.
01:11:03Of course.
01:11:14When did you get this?
01:11:16Back when I realized I'd give up everything for you.
01:11:36How's it going?
01:11:38Good.
01:11:39Just finished my last sketch.
01:11:40I didn't hear Sugar Mommy just landed another big deal.
01:11:50Yeah?
01:11:51Adrian, come back to the Crawford family.
01:11:54Come back to your position and your inheritance.
01:12:03What do you mean you're canceling the contract?
01:12:06We've been partners for ten years.
01:12:12Grandfather, no.
01:12:13Please don't call Adrian.
01:12:17So you want me to come back?
01:12:20I have to ask my wife.
01:12:23What do you think, Mrs. Crawford?
01:12:30First order of business today.
01:12:33What is this?
01:12:35Starting without me.
01:12:36Perfect timing.
01:12:37I was just announcing your termination.
01:12:41The company crisis last month turns out wasn't an accident.
01:12:46Ethan deliberately sabotaged every deal.
01:12:48There's no proof.
01:12:50You misappropriated partnership funds to indulge in your own personal affairs.
01:12:55Bad investments, shady deals, and reckless spending have led us to financial setbacks and operational setbacks.
01:13:05And it's all documented right here.
01:13:09The lawsuit's already been filed.
01:13:12What?
01:13:13You actually did this?
01:13:15No, Grandpa.
01:13:17He's lying.
01:13:18It's all a lie.
01:13:20Dad.
01:13:22Either you let me handle this my way.
01:13:24Or I can still walk.
01:13:30Adrian.
01:13:36Mr. Crawford, the vote for new director.
01:13:42Competence is everything.
01:13:46I'm getting old.
01:13:47And from now on, Adrian will handle everything.
01:13:53No.
01:13:54Don't listen to him.
01:13:55Don't listen to him.
01:13:56Please.
01:13:57You're making a mistake.
01:13:58Where are you going?
01:14:02My company, you hear that?
01:14:03My fucking company.
01:14:05Come back.
01:14:10The baby's asleep.
01:14:13Guess that means I get you all to myself.
01:14:17Don't distract me.
01:14:18I'm almost finished.
01:14:21I'm designing my wedding dress.
01:14:23Incredible.
01:14:25I might hire you to design my tux.
01:14:29You know, I think I'm going to have to check my schedule.
01:14:33Oh, it's like that.
01:14:37I still can't believe we're getting married.
01:14:40Ever since you crashed into me at the hospital, I haven't been able to get you out of my head.
01:14:44And soon I'll be able to love you openly and officially for the rest of my life.
01:14:51Uh, practicing your vows?
01:14:53Yeah.
01:14:57Can we practice the kiss as well?
01:14:59If you have to.
01:15:14Your father said, no fiancΓ© by Christmas.
01:15:17No inheritance.
01:15:18Do you really want to give all that up?
01:15:26Everybody?
01:15:27This is my new girlfriend.
01:15:28This is my new girlfriend.
01:15:30You didn't tell me your parents were this rich.
01:15:34I brought you all a basket from the Miller Farm.
01:15:36A bottom of my head.
