22:22You know, when I look at you, it feels like home.
22:32Like you're the place I've been searching for all along.
22:36Lovers don't just meet someone.
22:41They're in each other all along.
22:49Lily, I have something.
22:51Just kiss me already.
22:56Lily?
22:58Lily?
22:59What's Lily?
23:01Lily?
23:02Lily?
23:21Lily, Lily.
23:24Ethan, I had another vision.
23:26A vision?
23:27Tell me, tell me what you saw.
23:31You were in a castle.
23:34And Todd, Freddy, they were there.
23:41I was buying stolen art.
23:43Yeah, I acquired these after the war.
23:46Things were much simpler than...
23:48Acquired.
23:49More like looted.
23:51Priceless pieces, all of them.
23:53You'll never see a finer collection.
23:55The only problem is the money.
24:00That is a problem.
24:03Ethan, how about three instead of four?
24:23Let's get all four.
24:26Excellent.
24:27Let's go all in.
24:29We have a deal, huh?
24:30We have a deal.
24:31We have a deal.
24:32We have a deal.
24:32We have a deal.
24:33Likewise.
24:34Likewise.
24:35Likewise.
24:40I was buying stolen art.
24:45What?
24:47I was buying stolen art from the war.
24:49With Freddy and Uncle Todd.
24:51What do you mean?
24:52I thought I was saving it.
24:56But they...
24:59Something really bad is gonna happen.
25:02I don't understand, Ethan.
25:04Lily, I'm gonna tell you everything about me, but right now, Lily, we have to go.
25:14Ethan, what is this?
25:20What is this?
25:21I'm sorry.
25:23I was gonna tell you.
25:24I was.
25:26But you didn't.
25:29Why didn't you?
25:30The same reason you didn't tell me about your visions at first.
25:33I couldn't.
25:38Lily.
25:41I want to know the real you.
25:43And I want you to know the real me.
25:45No more secrets.
26:03I'm Ethan Waldorf, of the Waldorf Empire.
26:12But I'm not the man in those headlines.
26:14Well, then why would you lie to me about it, then?
26:16I didn't want you to know me for what I have.
26:18I want you to know me for who I am.
26:21When I'm with you, I'm not Ethan Waldorf.
26:24I'm just Ethan.
26:26And that's the only version of...
26:27I don't care about any of that.
26:28I care about you.
26:30Lily, Lily.
26:31Let me prove it to you.
26:33Lily.
26:35I can't.
26:41I can't believe anything you've said.
26:45I'm going to fix this.
26:47All of it.
26:52I'm going to prove it to you.
27:02The story is everywhere, Ethan.
27:04I know.
27:04We need damage control.
27:06I know.
27:07How's the Venetian art fairy?
27:09Some of the exhibit has already dropped out.
27:11It's okay.
27:11We'll fill in the gaps.
27:12And your Uncle Todd reached out.
27:14He's got a proposal.
27:16He wants to meet with you tomorrow.
27:17A proposal with everything going on?
27:20He wants to address the elephant in the room.
27:22I'm sorry, Ethan, but Todd controls the art world.
27:25One call from him and the narrative changes.
27:27He wants the Venetian art fair to be more modern
27:30so that he can make more money.
27:32I went to Belarus to acquire the classics
27:36so we could have the most historical art of it ever.
27:38And obviously he didn't want that.
27:41He just wanted me out of the picture.
27:43And the dealer just wanted my money.
27:46Are you saying Todd's behind all this?
27:50I think the last thing he wants is me hosting the gala.
27:53What if you're wrong?
27:54A public accusation against Todd would bury you.
27:58Ramona, can you book a meeting with Lily in the gallery?
28:01I want to hang her panties at the gala.
28:04And Carolyn, book that meeting with Todd.
28:07I got an elephant to address myself.
28:14You know, Lily?
28:17I understand what you're trying to do with your heart.
28:22And I want you to succeed.
28:23I really do.
28:27After everything I've done for you, huh?
28:31I need you.
28:35You needed me.
28:37Remember?
28:38She doesn't need you anymore.
28:41She's got a nerve showing up here.
28:45Waldorf, shouldn't you be hiding and avoiding humiliation?
28:48Tell me, what was it?
28:51Jealousy?
28:52Come on, don't flatter yourself.
28:54If you had kept your hands clean.
28:56You need to take a look at your own hands.
28:58Because they're soiled with guilt.
29:00You know what you did to me.
29:02And what you've been trying to do to Lily.
29:04But now, I know too.
29:13Come on.
29:15Aren't you even the least bit curious?
29:26Recognize those signatures on the transactions?
29:32Who has the painting?
29:37Look, I'm really sorry to the both of you.
29:42I, uh...
29:46Recognize the names on those transactions?
29:49I'm sorry.
29:52Who has the painting?
29:57I'm really sorry to the both of you.
30:00I, uh...
30:02I...
30:03We don't want your apologies, Frank.
30:10We want my Uncle Todd.
30:22I want to start out by thanking you for offering to help with these.
30:28Anything you could do would be much appreciated.
30:30I'm glad to hear it, Ethan.
30:32Because if you let me, I'd like to steer this ship back on course.
30:36I'm listening.
30:41It's beautiful.
30:43You and I see you with the same eyes.
30:45We always have.
30:47I've arranged a little, let's say, agreement with some prominent collectors.
30:55And this could be ours.
30:58A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Ethan.
31:02But if I'm going to help you out, I need to ask a favor of you.
31:07You cannot attend the fair.
31:10Let me put it another way.
31:12If you attend the fair, you and Lily will be in big trouble.
31:21If you attend the fair, you and Lily will be in big trouble.
31:26With your reputation being the way it is.
31:29Your association with artists, it'll end their career before it even starts.
31:35We both know how much you care about Lily.
31:38You don't want to do that to her.
31:41No, I don't.
31:44But I want her art in the fair.
31:46Ethan, please do not put me in this position.
31:50Her art is just as good as any of the other artists.
31:54Why do you think I was drawn to it in the first place?
31:56I am, I am trying to help you, Ethan.
31:59I'm probably the only person who is.
32:02Can't you see that?
32:03Well then help me with this, Uncle Todd.
32:06But why there's some interest in classical art?
32:09Weren't you always the one trying to push the Waldorf family empire to focus on modern art?
32:14You always said.
32:15I always said a prominent work is still a prominent work.
32:19Regardless of influence, style, or era.
32:23The difference, Ethan, between you and I,
32:25is that I don't let my bias and idealism blind me from the future.
32:32Now, I don't care what your reservations are about doing what I've asked you to do.
32:37But for your own sake, you better do it.
32:49I can't believe my art used to be in a coffee shop and now it's here, in this gallery.
32:55Lily, your work belongs here.
32:58It always has.
33:04Ethan, I have to tell you something.
33:08Part of me feels like, when you were gone, I kind of lost myself.
33:15And now it's just every day, it's getting harder.
33:20And it's harder to even just pick up the brush and...
33:25Tell me.
33:29Gal is in a couple days and...
33:33I haven't finished the paintings yet.
33:39I think I lost my inspiration.
33:42I have something to tell you, too.
33:44My Uncle Todd...
33:46doesn't want me to attend the gala.
33:49Why?
33:51He's trying to convince me my reputation's gonna harm the other artists' chances of their work being seen.
33:59That's ridiculous.
34:00Your reputation is the only reason that my art is even here.
34:05But I need to finish the rest of the paintings.
34:10I think I know someone who can help.
34:16How could you let an art thief vouch for her work?
34:24I think I know someone who can help.
34:27Don't you think that this is going to hurt the reputation of the gallery?
34:31What do you mean?
34:32How could you let an art thief vouch for her work?
34:36Well, he's not a thief.
34:38And Lily's work speaks for itself.
34:41That's what yours does, too.
34:44So you really think this Master George guy is going to be able to help me?
34:48They don't call him Master George for nothing.
34:51He's tremendously knowledgeable and talented in classical art techniques.
34:56He has an uncanny way to inspire even the most uninspired.
35:02He's kind of like you.
35:07Lily, you deserve this more than anyone else.
35:11It's time for your work to be seen.
35:20So let me guess.
35:22Still no response from Freddy, huh?
35:28Okay.
35:30Now we make sure that Freddy doesn't talk to anyone ever again.
35:52I just, I want it to be perfect.
35:56Art is about seeking perfection and beauty.
36:01But you can't be attached.
36:03See the difference?
36:05No.
36:13Let go of ego.
36:16Aim for a pure mind.
36:19Art should aspire to higher ideals.
36:22The ancients understood this.
36:25That's why they spoke of divine inspiration.
36:47Welcome to surrender, Lily.
36:51Your entire life's journey is in your work, Lily.
36:56Now it's time to take it to the next level.
36:59True art.
37:01True art.
37:16I'm so sorry, Mr. George.
37:18I need to go.
37:24Lily.
37:25What's wrong?
37:26The victim, a 30-year-old male by the name of Frederick Dunn, was found shot.
37:32It's Freddy.
37:34He's been shot.
37:36You cannot go to the gala.
37:37You cannot go to the initial gala.
37:39I cannot stand by and watch Todd soil my family's legacy with selfishness and greed.
37:48Really, people are getting hurt.
37:50I'm lucky to still have...
37:51I care about you more than anyone in the entire world.
37:56And I could not live in myself if something happened to you and I could have prevented it.
38:00We've been down this road before.
38:02I don't think we can prevent it.
38:05Do you?
38:15I can't believe you're finally finishing them.
38:20I can't believe you're finally finishing them.
38:35But I really think this is our shared purpose.
38:38It's about channeling our hearts and staying the path one step at a time.
39:01This is the summation of everything you've been working for years.
39:04Everything we've been working for years.
39:09And now you get to show it to everybody.
39:12Because of you?
39:16Because of us.
39:22Ethan, I'm scared.
39:29What?
39:31Tomorrow night?
39:32Are you sure we can do this?
39:41That's right.
39:42And let's make sure we have the VIPs well attended to.
39:45And make sure that no one gets in without my approval.
39:49Understand?
39:52I knew she couldn't finish what she started.
39:56Always nice to see you.
40:02What would you put there instead?
40:06A real artist's work?
40:12Carolyn.
40:14A minute, please.
40:17Sasha's paintings would look nicely there.
40:21I'm sorry, but Ethan specifically requested that this goes there.
40:25It's Lily's last painting in the series.
40:28Ethan's not here right now.
40:29I am.
40:30But we all want the gala to be a success tonight, don't we?
40:33Remove Lily's paintings.
40:38Yes.
40:40Most certainly.
40:43Call me.
40:45I need to tell you.
40:49Ethan, your Uncle Todd was just here.
40:52He doesn't want Lily's last painting shown.
40:54I know.
40:55In fact, he doesn't want any of her paintings shown.
40:57Do you both trust me?
41:00You do?
41:00Good.
41:04Because I have a plan.
41:18He's here.
41:20Name, please.
41:22Lily Austin.
41:23Lily Austin.
41:25Lily Austin.
41:27There you are.
41:29You're not on the list.
41:31Really?
41:32Is that so?
41:33You need to leave.
41:37Okay.
41:39I want to thank everyone of you for helping us celebrate our Venetian Gala this evening.
41:47We can truly fulfill our dreams.
41:50The Waldorf family has a history of doing just that.
41:52But as many of you know, forging such a legacy, it's not a simple feat.
42:00It comes with challenges, mistakes, and occasionally, nephews.
42:12Is that so?
42:13You need to leave.
42:15I don't think so.
42:16I think there's a kind of misunderstanding we're definitely allowed in.
42:19Ma'am, you need to relax.
42:21Hey, don't tell her to relax.
42:24So you're telling me I can go in, but the owner of this gallery can't.
42:28You're telling him that he needs to leave.
42:31We're not going anywhere.
42:35Do we have to do this?
42:40We're not going anywhere.
42:44Do we have to do this?
42:47Come on, Lily.
42:56Don't worry.
42:57It's going to be all right.
42:59Ow.
43:00Because I have a plan.
43:02Stop.
43:04You're alive.
43:07Ready.
43:08I'm with you guys.
43:11Just in time.
43:21Now, I know recent headlines may have cast a shadow over tonight's affair.
43:29My nephew Ethan's decisions have raised questions about his judgment, about the values of our family.
43:44Let me reassure you that our family's commitment to integrity and excellence remains unshaken.
43:54In fact, it is stronger than ever.
44:02I have no more words.
44:04I do.
44:09I have no more words.
44:10I do.
44:24I think I can take it from here.
44:24I do.
44:45Thank you, Uncle Todd, for your kind words.
44:51Thank you all for joining us this evening.
44:53As we celebrate art and legacy.
44:57A legacy built on truth.
45:00Truth has a way of resurfacing, no matter how deeply buried.
45:05Three years ago, our foundation uncovered a lost masterpiece, hidden for generations in
45:12private collections that hoarded away its brilliance.
45:15This piece is a symbol of artistry reclaimed.
45:22This piece is a symbol of artistry reclaimed.
45:27It's much more than just a painting.
45:30It's a bridge to the past.
45:32A pure, true symbol and lesson of forgotten ancient techniques.
45:40The artist, the artist worked on this for over a decade, inspired by divine visions.
45:55I spent the last three years in prison, falsely accused of a crime that I did not commit to return
46:03this treasure to the public.
46:06But the betrayal that sent me there was orchestrated by someone in this room tonight.
46:12This stage isn't only for celebration, it's about setting the record straight.
46:20The painting we will be unveiling tonight is Felipe de Champagne's The Enunciation.
46:30The piece that started it all.
46:51But tonight isn't only about reclaiming stolen art, no, it's about the journey that brought us here.
46:59Let me also introduce to you, Wishes Unheard, by Lily Austin.
47:20Tonight, the truth comes to light.
47:26And it pains me deeply to tell you all.
47:31It was my dear Uncle Todd.
47:35It was one who orchestrated my downfall.
47:38To seize control of this organization.
47:42This cannot stand any longer.
47:50Uncle Todd.
47:57Do you remember those documents you had me saying?
48:03Well, it turns out Freddie was a little helpful to just not only me, the authorities as well.
48:12They have original documents.
48:16You've got to be realistic.
48:19Uncle Todd.
48:20You were right about one thing.
48:22A prominent work is a prominent work regardless.
48:30This will never work.
48:38You are a real artist.
48:46Well, what an extraordinary night it's been.
48:52Tonight, we celebrate many artists and their various techniques.
48:58One artist in particular has not only demonstrated remarkable technique, but one whose talents have reactivated techniques.
49:09And one of the past is to be shared in this past.
49:11So, ladies and gentlemen, it is my honor to present the best newcomer artist award to...
49:20The best newcomer artist award to...
49:23The best newcomer artist award to Lillie Austin.
49:26Congratulations, Lillie.
49:49It's everything you fought for.
49:53And now it's on display for everyone to see.
49:57It's everything we fought for.
50:00We wouldn't be here if you didn't see it.
50:02You know, the other night, I had a vision too.
50:08Oh yeah, a vision.
50:12Here, let me show you.
50:21This is it, huh?
50:23This is it.
50:26It's beautiful.
50:29So did you see it.
50:50Lily, will you spend the rest of your life with me as my wife?
50:55I'm happy.
51:04I'm happy.
51:06I'm happy.
51:37You
