00:25:14hey lily
00:25:17ethan
00:25:18the professor asked me to tutor you
00:25:20i'll text you

00:26:18you
00:26:20oh
00:26:21Wow.
00:26:31Mmm.
00:26:50Ethan, you didn't have to.
00:26:54If you want to turn your grades around, you have to get serious about studying.
00:27:02I...
00:27:03Your house. 7pm tonight. Don't miss it again.
00:27:19See? I told you I'd keep my promises. Eventually.
00:27:24Good. Because we have a lot of work to do today.
00:27:28But you made this? For me?
00:27:31Being smart is about being willing to improve.
00:27:34Look, class consciousness, economic situation, status, and political standing.
00:27:47Lily.
00:27:49Are you following?
00:27:51Of course. Of course I am. Yeah. Keep going.
00:27:55I don't think you were.
00:27:57I'll explain it again, but I need you to listen carefully this time, okay?
00:28:04Racial oppression.
00:28:06Woman, ethnic minorities, and the walk-in classes.
00:28:10You know what? I actually had something else here that might help you out with the...
00:28:14Ow!
00:28:16I'm sorry. Are you okay?
00:28:19This is so embarrassing. Did he just see I was trying to kiss him?
00:28:24Yeah. Yeah, of course. I'm totally fine. Just...
00:28:27You know, studying can be so dangerous sometimes.
00:28:32Just pretend that never happened.
00:28:34There's nothing to be embarrassed about, okay?
00:28:37Apparently...
00:28:39You can't focus around me.
00:28:45My notes.
00:28:46So you can study when I'm not around.
00:28:50This must have taken you days to organize.
00:28:53And it was time well spent.
00:28:56I'll be giving you more notes every day.
00:28:59Speaking...of time...
00:29:01There's a campus dance next week.
00:29:04I thought maybe...
00:29:05I don't dance.
00:29:09Why not? I mean...
00:29:10I said I don't dance!
00:29:12Focus on your grades, Lily.
00:29:14Dancing won't fix your D-minus.
00:29:23I don't deserve happiness.
00:29:25And I can't let her get hurt because of me.
00:29:28If I protect her, it has to be from the shadows.
00:29:39What did I do wrong?
00:29:41What did I do wrong?
00:29:42What did I do wrong?
00:30:08To see?
00:30:09The world in Paris is your très magnifique.
00:30:13Hear my song, sing along.
00:30:17All independent women got it going on.
00:30:40Alright everyone, here are the results of yesterday's exam.
00:30:50Mr. Cross. Ranked first in class, like always.
00:30:57Miss Smith. Significant improvement. Ranked fifth.
00:31:17Look who it is.
00:31:21Derek.
00:31:29What are you doing here?
00:31:32Transferred.
00:31:34I heard plain little Lily turned into a goddess.
00:31:38Had to see it for myself.
00:31:42Maybe I was wrong about you.
00:31:46You've changed.
00:31:48I have to go to class.
00:31:50Oh, no, no, no. Not so fast.
00:31:54We have a lot of catching up to do.
00:31:59Derek, let go of me.
00:32:00Oh, come on. Don't be like that.
00:32:02I mean, I'm trying to apologize.
00:32:06I was stupid and young back then, but look at you now.
00:32:12You are absolutely stunning.
00:32:15I'd be crazy not to want a second chance.
00:32:18I said, let go of me.
00:32:23For what?
00:32:24You'll scream?
00:32:26Cause a scene?
00:32:28I doubt the campus goddess wants that kind of attention now, does she?
00:32:36It's what's gonna happen.
00:32:39You're gonna give me a chance.
00:32:42Date me.
00:32:43Be seen with me.
00:32:46Cause I know something all your little admirers don't.
00:32:51I know who you are underneath all that pain.
00:32:57You wouldn't.
00:33:01One pose for me.
00:33:02Your entire little world comes crashing down.
00:33:05Again.
00:33:11Coffee. Tomorrow at 3.
00:33:14Don't keep me waiting.
00:33:23I don't know.
00:33:34No.
00:33:37No.
00:33:39This can't be happening.
00:33:42Not again.
00:33:45When everything is going right.
00:34:00Leave.
00:34:01You missed her date.
00:34:05I never said I would come.
00:34:07And you knew what would happen if you didn't.
00:34:10You know.
00:34:11I knew this girl.
00:34:13At my old school.
00:34:15Give me that.
00:34:16Now terrified.
00:34:18You shouldn't have missed our date.
00:34:21Everyone's watching sweetheart.
00:34:24Feels familiar.
00:34:26Doesn't it?
00:34:31You're gonna leave her alone.
00:34:33Now.
00:34:34I'm gonna break every bone in your body.
00:34:36Who are you?
00:34:38This doesn't concern you.
00:34:39Wrong answer.
00:34:42You know, this is what I hate about bullies.
00:34:44Oh.
00:34:45You guys always just pick on people who can't fight back.
00:34:48But.
00:34:49She's kinda got someone with her now.
00:34:53Crazy.
00:34:54Oh.
00:34:54You have no idea how crazy I can get when someone hurts Lily.
00:34:58So.
00:34:59You're gonna leave her alone.
00:35:01Walk out that door.
00:35:03And disappear from her life forever.
00:35:10You wanna threaten me?
00:35:11My father is the son.
00:35:13I don't give a shit who your dad is.
00:35:16She's not who you think she is.
00:35:18Okay?
00:35:18She's just pretending.
00:35:21Don't let her play you.
00:35:22You know what man?
00:35:23I know Lily better than anyone.
00:35:27And if you even say her name with that dirty little mouth of yours.
00:35:31I'm gonna cut your tongue out.
00:35:33And serve her with my drink.
00:35:35Okay?
00:35:37Okay.
00:35:38Okay, Jesus.
00:35:39And if you even speak in her direction.
00:35:42I'm gonna find you.
00:35:44And when I do.
00:35:46I promise.
00:35:47There won't be any witnesses around.
00:35:49Okay?
00:35:52You're both insane.
00:35:58This isn't over.
00:36:06Dave.
00:36:08He's not gonna bother you anymore.
00:36:09I'll make sure of it.
00:36:11Really?
00:36:13What does Sully and Dion eat when she goes camping?
00:36:19What?
00:36:20Once more.
00:36:23Sorry.
00:36:26Thanks, Alex.
00:36:30Thanks, Alex.
00:36:40Morning.
00:36:42You look beautiful today.
00:36:46Thanks, Alex.
00:36:51Oh, my God.
00:36:54I heard you stole Lily's report in chemistry.
00:36:57I warned you.
00:36:59More than once.
00:37:02Guess you're just the type of guy that only learns when it hurts.
00:37:05Bad.
00:37:07Okay.
00:37:08I'll never bother Lily again.
00:37:18I'm bad.
00:37:22Enough games.
00:37:23Alright, let's see how tough you are when the whole world sees your truth.
00:37:36What?
00:37:42Ethan Cross?
00:37:44The billionaire's son?
00:37:48Ethan Cross?
00:37:50The billionaire's son?
00:37:52No, no, no.
00:37:53Maybe it's just Alex drinking.
00:37:55Hey!
00:37:56You guys know Lily Smith, the campus goddess?
00:37:58I got to hurtin' who she really is.
00:38:00Dude.
00:38:01Aren't you that creep Ethan's been warning us about?
00:38:03Yeah.
00:38:04We heard you've been harassing girls.
00:38:06That's sick, man.
00:38:07What?
00:38:08No, I'm trying to tell you.
00:38:09This is the pervert guy.
00:38:11My friend said stay away from him.
00:38:12I'm not a pervert!
00:38:14Alright, I'm telling the truth!
00:38:16Listen!
00:38:17You know that, Lily girl.
00:38:19Alright, I have proof!
00:38:23This whole school is absolutely insane!
00:38:26Everyone here is crazy!
00:38:41Derek's gone.
00:38:43Yeah, he transferred out this morning.
00:38:45Wait, really?
00:38:47Did you do that?
00:38:49Yeah.
00:38:50He only just showed up where he was, like I promised.
00:38:56Thanks, Alex.
00:38:58You're amazing.
00:39:00Yeah.
00:39:04You know what?
00:39:05You need a break from this drama.
00:39:08There's that food drive at school this weekend.
00:39:10Come with me.
00:39:12I think it'll be good to do something good for the community.
00:39:17Yeah.
00:39:19That sounds perfect.
00:39:29Good morning.
00:39:31Come on.
00:39:32Let's go.
00:39:36Okay, uh, Emma and Ethan, start organizing the clothes, and then Alex and Lily, I need
00:39:42you to start putting sandwiches together for us to pass out, okay?
00:39:46Finally, some quality time with Ethan.
00:39:50Come on, Lily.
00:39:51Lunches won't pack themselves.
00:39:53Right.
00:39:54Sorry.
00:39:58I can't get this right.
00:39:59Could you help me?
00:40:00Fine.
00:40:01I'll show you how to do this.
00:40:05Is everything okay?
00:40:08Yeah, yeah, no, it's nothing.
00:40:10Well, you keep looking over there.
00:40:12I mean, do you want to be over there with him instead of over here with me?
00:40:18I need air.
00:40:19Will you walk with me?
00:40:21Yeah, of course.
00:40:22Let's go.
00:40:31It's gonna be okay.
00:40:34Will it?
00:40:36Of course.
00:40:38Oh, I think, I think I'm actually stuck.
00:40:41Okay, yeah.
00:40:42Hold some, hold some, hold some, hold some.
00:40:43Hey, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.
00:40:45I love moments like this between us.
00:40:48No distractions.
00:40:49Just us.
00:40:51You being, you know, you have no idea how much I want, you know.
00:40:56Uh, Alex.
00:40:57Hmm?
00:41:00Um, you have some peanut butter on your face.
00:41:05Oh.
00:41:07Thanks.
00:41:11So, should we head back?
00:41:14Yeah.
00:41:15Yeah.
00:41:16Yeah, yeah, let's uh, let's go.
00:41:19I hate to be the one to tell you this, but you deserve to know something about Lily.
00:41:24She was just there with Alex in the hallway and, and they were like really close.
00:41:28Like really, really intimate.
00:41:31Ooh, look at this.
00:41:33Ooh.
00:41:36Uh, this would look so good on you.
00:41:47No.
00:41:58Don't ever touch me again.
00:42:00Ethan, I was just trying to put on the necklace.
00:42:01I have feelings for Lily, okay?
00:42:03Stop playing your games.
00:42:05This ends now.
00:42:06What?
00:42:06You have feelings for her?
00:42:08But she's nothing but-
00:42:09Finish that sentence.
00:42:11You'll see what happens.
00:42:13I'm sorry, I, I, I took it too far.
00:42:18If you ever threaten Lily again, or if you even look at her wrong, you'll see just how ruthless I
00:42:22can be.
00:42:30How could I be so stupid?
00:42:33Of course he wouldn't choose someone like me.
00:42:37Someone who lives behind a mask.
00:42:41Lily!
00:42:42No, Ethan.
00:42:50Hey.
00:42:52Whatever you think you saw back there-
00:42:54I saw you.
00:42:57I didn't want her to put that necklace on me, okay?
00:42:59I pushed her away immediately.
00:43:03Whatever.
00:43:06Are you okay?
00:43:08Yeah.
00:43:09I'm fine.
00:43:11Why should I believe you?
00:43:13Why should I believe you?
00:43:13You've been avoiding me for weeks.
00:43:15You won't even sit near me anymore.
00:43:17And now you just show up like this?
00:43:22It's because every moment I spend close to you, it makes it harder to stay away.
00:43:32Why?
00:43:33Why?
00:43:34What are you afraid of?
00:43:40It's just-
00:43:42It's just I-
00:43:43Lily!
00:43:44Where are you?
00:43:47It's just I-
00:43:50Because I want you so bad.
00:44:01Tell me to stop and I will.
00:44:11It's okay.
00:44:16Lily, where are you?
00:44:23Oh, thank god you're okay.
00:44:28What the hell is he doing here?
00:44:30Trouble always seems to find you, huh?
00:44:33Alex, he's just trying to help-
00:44:34I don't care.
00:44:36If he hurts you, he has to deal with me.
00:44:39Come on.
00:44:40Let's go.
00:44:46Alex, can we talk?
00:44:48I think we've done enough talking today.
00:45:01I think you should probably think about having some of these.
00:45:04Oh, look who's back.
00:45:06How's the food drive?
00:45:09What's all this?
00:45:11Oh, just some party planning, darling.
00:45:13Nothing for you to worry about.
00:45:15What party?
00:45:16Ethan, don't worry about it.
00:45:18It's business matters.
00:45:19Your fiancé and I will take care of it.
00:45:21First, she's not my fiancé.
00:45:23Okay.
00:45:24Second.
00:45:25Victoria, get out of here.
00:45:27Hey.
00:45:27Ethan, why?
00:45:28Everybody calm down.
00:45:30Why don't you get some rest?
00:45:31You look like you could use it.
00:45:33Don't drag me into your party.
00:45:43Ethan, by then you will know you belong to me.
00:45:47Not to your little girlfriend.
00:46:02A party at Ethan's house?
00:46:06Maybe he wants to talk about what happened.
00:46:24Ethan taught me how to swim when we were 12.
00:46:27We've swam together every summer since.
00:46:30Sweet, isn't it?
00:46:31Wow, they've got so much history together.
00:46:33Yeah, they're perfect for each other.
00:46:44Lily?
00:46:46Ethan, honey!
00:46:50Dad.
00:46:51What is going on outside?
00:46:54Oh, that.
00:46:57Well, I just thought it was time your classmates met your fiancé.
00:47:05Knock it off.
00:47:06Now.
00:47:07Oh, no, no, no, don't worry.
00:47:08I invited your little girlfriend, too.
00:47:11As we've heard so many rumors about her from school.
00:47:15Son.
00:47:17Ethan.
00:47:20Any girl you get too close to, her family might find themselves facing some unfortunate financial circumstances.
00:47:32You understand.
00:47:41Ethan used to tie my laps.
00:47:43She said I was always the fastest one.
00:47:45But, of course, he's the best at everything.
00:47:47I'm sorry.
00:47:48Come on, everyone.
00:47:49Let's swim.
00:47:51Hey!
00:47:52I can't swim.
00:47:54The courtroom will ruin my makeup.
00:47:58Where's Ethan?
00:48:00Lily!
00:48:01Aren't you swimming?
00:48:03Uh, no.
00:48:05I'll just watch.
00:48:06Oh.
00:48:07What a shame.
00:48:09You must be roasting in this heat.
00:48:19Oops.
00:48:20I'm sorry.
00:48:21I'm such a fuss.
00:48:22Are you okay?
00:48:23Are you okay?
00:48:23I can't.
00:48:23I can't swim either.
00:48:25You're okay.
00:48:27You're okay, you're okay, I'm fine.
00:48:32I'm okay.
00:48:35I can't swim either.
00:48:37I can't swim either.
00:48:42I can't swim either.
00:48:52I can't swim either.
00:48:54God, this is going straight on Insta.
00:48:59Party's over.
00:49:01Everyone out.
00:49:03Everyone saw me.
00:49:05Everyone knows.
00:49:07Hey, I don't care what this is, okay?
00:49:11You're safe now.
00:49:18Lily!
00:49:22Send that to me.
00:49:26Fake goddess exposed.
00:49:29No wonder she always wears so much makeup.
00:49:32Catfish level expert.
00:49:39It's over.
00:49:43Everything I built.
00:49:48It's gone.
00:49:56Did he just cover me because he was ashamed of me?
00:50:00Ah!
00:50:08As Ethan's fiancé, I want to say he's always been kind to those who need help.
00:50:14Some people mistake kindness for something more.
00:50:17Hashtag blessed.
00:50:19Hashtag engagement.
00:50:31Hashtag engagement.
00:50:34There's the fake goddess.
00:50:36Did you see how horrible she looks without makeup?
00:50:39Back off.
00:50:41Leave her alone.
00:50:42Why are you defending the catfish?
00:50:49Lily!
00:50:53Hey, everyone.
00:50:54I know there have been a lot of rumors going around.
00:51:07I just wanted to be beautiful.
00:51:08I just wanted to be accepted.
00:51:11I wanted to be accepted.
00:51:41I'm so excited.
00:51:49I guess he left me too.
00:51:53Just like everyone else.
00:51:57Lily, you have to eat something. It's been three days.
00:52:02Just leave me alone!
00:52:04Lily, talk to me.
00:52:12No, my make-up.
00:52:19I'm so dumb.
00:52:22We're worried about you.
00:52:24I don't deserve you.
00:52:26No.
00:52:40Ethan, where are you?
00:52:46Sir, the cyber attacks against Miss Lily have worsened.
00:52:53I thought keeping my distance would keep her safe.
00:52:57But it failed.
00:53:02So I'll protect her myself.
00:53:04At any cost.
00:53:06Sir, Alex has been ringing the bell trying to speak with you, but your father will not let him in.
00:53:14Alex?
00:53:15Seven fucking days, Ethan.
00:53:17She hasn't eaten, hasn't slept, hasn't seen anyone.
00:53:21While you're in here brooding, she's destroying herself.
00:53:25This is all my fault.
00:53:26Yeah, it is.
00:53:29Everything that she's going through, the bullying, the public humiliation, the social media attacks, it all traces back to you.
00:53:36Alex, shut up! I'm talking.
00:53:37You had your chance to speak when she needed you and you chose silence.
00:53:43You want to know why I'm here?
00:53:45Because I'm the fucking idiot that cares more about her happiness than my own.
00:53:49And right now...
00:53:51Right now, man, she's dying without you.
00:53:54So get your fucking ass up and go find her.
00:54:05Lily!
00:54:07I know you can hear me!
00:54:13Oh my god.
00:54:15Ethan?
00:54:17I'm not leaving until you come talk to me!
00:54:21Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:54:24What am I going to do?
00:54:26Go away!
00:54:28I don't want to see you!
00:54:44Look at the sick!
00:54:46Come inside!
00:54:47No!
00:54:48No, not until you let me explain everything!
00:54:52Ethan, please!
00:54:54Just come in!
00:54:55I never wanted you to suffer like this, Lily!
00:54:59I never wanted you to feel the way my friend Ben felt!
00:55:02What happened to him?
00:55:05He suffered from appearance anxiety just like you do.
00:55:09His girlfriend?
00:55:12She was cruel.
00:55:14He dunked him, said he was worthless, and said that he would never render up to me.
00:55:22The night of my birthday, Ben called me.
00:55:28He was desperate.
00:55:31He needed somebody to talk to.
00:55:34But I was out dancing, celebrating, having fun!
00:55:38And I never saw his call until...
00:55:42It was too late.
00:55:46Ben took his own life back then.
00:55:49I was out dancing.
00:55:52And I have been so afraid ever since.
00:55:56That I would fail someone I care about.
00:56:00That my selfishness, my neglect, that it would cost another life.
00:56:08I can't lose you the way I lost Ben, Lily.
00:56:13And if hiding from you will save your life, then that is what I will do.
00:56:18Seeing you now.
00:56:20Seeing what my distance has done to you.
00:56:24Face yourself, Lily.
00:56:26Don't let the fear win.
00:56:28Because if I lose you too, I won't survive it.
00:56:34So you've been pushing me away.
00:56:38To protect me.
00:56:40But it didn't work.
00:56:42I failed you.
00:56:44Running from the pain won't honor Ben's memory.
00:56:48Trust in you.
00:56:49Pushing that down will only make the guilt worse.
00:56:53I've been living in fear.
00:56:56Just like Ben was.
00:56:58That fear is...
00:56:59That fear is...
00:57:00Killing me.
00:57:03And...
00:57:05I don't...
00:57:06Know if...
00:57:07Stop running.
00:57:10Stop hiding.
00:57:15Face yourself, so that I never have to fear losing you too.
00:57:24I love you even more like this.
00:57:27Nothing to hide.
00:57:30I love you even more like this.
00:57:51You're beautiful.
00:57:54You're beautiful.
00:57:55You're really...
00:57:56I love this version of you.
00:58:00Therefore...
00:58:01For this...
00:58:01My wife is between us...
00:58:02And...
00:58:17To make you happy...
00:58:18Tell your top ten.
00:58:18Our back is...
00:58:20To make you happy.
00:58:21To make you happy.
00:58:21And...
00:58:21To make you happy.
00:58:22Which is happy.
00:58:23To make you happy.
00:58:24And the time is sweet.
00:58:25To make you happy...
00:58:35Are you going to the dance with me?
00:58:41Yeah.
00:58:43I would love to.
00:58:58Ethan, go take a hot shower.
00:59:00I'll get some towels for you.
00:59:09These were my husbands.
00:59:11They should fit.
00:59:16That's very kind of you.
00:59:18You love her?
00:59:21More than anything.
00:59:34Here.
00:59:43This feels kind of strange, doesn't it?
00:59:47Yeah.
00:59:48Totally.
00:59:52You know, I actually never really learned how to dance properly.
00:59:56That spinning in the rain was the most romantic thing I've ever done.
01:00:01Maybe you could teach me?
01:00:05It'd be my honor.
01:00:07I mean, I think you're pretty good at dancing, but I could teach you a thing or two.
01:00:11I love dancing with you.
01:00:20Let's follow my lead, okay?
01:00:22Okay.
01:00:26All right.
01:00:27Heavy?
01:00:28Uh-oh.
01:00:29Kind of like this?
01:00:30Kind of.
01:00:31We'll work on it.
01:00:33Okay, ready?
01:00:34One, two, three.
01:00:36One, two.
01:00:37I think I haven't gotten it yet.
01:00:39You're getting there.
01:00:40You're getting there.
01:00:43Okay.
01:00:43Okay.
01:00:44One, two, three.
01:00:45Yeah.
01:00:45One, two, three.
01:00:47Oh!
01:00:50I'm so sorry.
01:00:52I'm terrible at this.
01:00:53It's okay.
01:00:54It's okay.
01:00:54We'll work on it.
01:00:56Okay.
01:01:05What are you most afraid of?
01:01:11To be seen.
01:01:15Like, really seen.
01:01:22I see you.
01:01:26And I love what I see.
01:01:30That's why I'm not afraid anymore.
01:01:36I see you.
01:02:03Hey, hey.
01:02:04What's wrong?
01:02:08Show them the real you.
01:02:11What do you mean?
01:02:15Well, how about you make a video?
01:02:17No makeup.
01:02:18No filters.
01:02:20Just you and your truth.
01:02:22I can't do that.
01:02:24What if they hate me more?
01:02:26What if they don't?
01:02:28What if your honesty inspires them?
01:02:31Okay.
01:02:34Will you stay with me while I do it?
01:02:39Always.
01:02:53I have something to say.
01:03:03I'm not perfect.
01:03:07And I never claimed to be.
01:03:10I've been made fun of for the way that I looked my entire life.
01:03:15So makeup became my armor.
01:03:18The way that I felt worthy of love.
01:03:22But I refuse to let that define me anymore.
01:03:28This is me.
01:03:31The real me.
01:03:38What did I just do?
01:03:39What did I...
01:03:40You changed everything.
01:03:44I believe in you.
01:04:03Wait, Ethan.
01:04:05Look at this.
01:04:11They love it.
01:04:12No.
01:04:14They love you.
01:04:32I've never seen a girl braver than her.
01:04:34She's beautiful without makeup, too.
01:04:37Isn't she stunning?
01:04:38I guess that's what confidence looks like.
01:04:49This isn't over.
01:04:51Yeah.
01:04:52What Emma said.
01:04:54A bunch of losers.
01:04:56Right.
01:04:56It's kind of pathetic.
01:04:57Is this a number I love?
01:04:59Really, Bill?
01:05:05Well...
01:05:06Okay.
01:05:08And that is my hack for a perfect winglet winner.
01:05:12And remember, despite everything, you're good enough with or without makeup.
01:05:18Thank you, guys.
01:05:19I'll see you next time.
01:05:24I never knew people would respond like this.
01:05:29Maybe...
01:05:31Maybe being genuine was my power this whole time.
01:05:34So what'd you think?
01:05:36It was amazing.
01:05:38I mean, really.
01:05:39Your inspiration is more powerful than any makeup tutorial.
01:05:42Well...
01:05:45You know, I think I want to open a cosmetic store.
01:05:48I want to teach young people how to be confident in their own skin.
01:05:55Let's make it happen, okay?
01:05:57I can't wait.
01:06:03And look.
01:06:04These three cosmetic companies already want to work with me.
01:06:07And this beauty brand wants me to be their authenticity ambassador.
01:06:15Your dream is becoming a reality.
01:06:18Faster than we could ever imagine.
01:06:28I'm gonna head home.
01:06:30See you at the dance tomorrow night?
01:06:32Yes.
01:06:43Hey.
01:06:44Ethan.
01:06:46Son, we need to talk.
01:06:49There's nothing to talk about.
01:06:50Congratulations, darling.
01:06:52Our engagement is tomorrow.
01:06:54Yeah, that's not gonna happen.
01:06:55No, it is going to happen.
01:06:57Ethan.
01:06:58We have already made a generous donation to your girlfriend's family.
01:07:02And her mother has already accepted the $1 million in cash to stay out of our family affairs.
01:07:07This engagement party, it coincides with your little dance.
01:07:10So I'm sorry, you're not gonna be able to attend with Lily.
01:07:17You bought out her mother?
01:07:18I protected this family!
01:07:21From a gold digger.
01:07:26Now, any more rebellion from you, and her family will lose everything.
01:07:32Homes, jobs, everything.
01:07:34They will be destroyed financially.
01:07:38Oh, darling.
01:07:40Don't look so sad.
01:07:41We are perfect together.
01:07:43Unlike some people, I don't have to hide behind makeup to be beautiful.
01:07:48Alright, that's enough.
01:07:50The announcement goes out of an hour.
01:07:53Dress appropriately for your engagement party.
01:07:56Period.
01:08:11Forgive me, Lily.
01:08:38No, no, no, no, no, no, this can't be happening.
01:08:45Lily, I need to tell you something.
01:08:50What?
01:08:51Mom, what is this, money?
01:08:53Where did you get this?
01:08:54What's going on?
01:08:57A woman appeared this morning with the money and said you had to break up with Ethan.
01:09:06We needed the money, so I took it.
01:09:09I'm so sorry.
01:09:10I was too nervous to tell you before now.
01:09:13Mom, we don't need money.
01:09:14I can make my own money.
01:09:17I need to find Ethan.
01:09:18I'm so sorry.
01:09:19I'm so sorry.
01:09:28God.
01:09:42Lily?
01:09:43What's wrong?
01:09:44Alex, Ethan disappeared.
01:09:46That bastard.
01:09:47I'm going to kill him.
01:09:49I need to get to his house.
01:09:50No, security will throw you out.
01:09:52Alex, you've always been my safe space.
01:09:55You've always accepted me exactly as I am.
01:09:58Yes, I do.
01:10:00With Ethan, I don't feel just loved.
01:10:05He pushes me to grow.
01:10:07I feel braver.
01:10:09I need someone like that.
01:10:11You need the kind of love that's going to change you.
01:10:14I'm coming to get you.
01:10:36Good luck, Angel.
01:10:39Thanks, Alex.
01:10:54Thank you all for celebrating our engagement.
01:11:01Lily, why did you come here?
01:11:03Get out of my house.
01:11:04Now.
01:11:05I won't let anyone come between us.
01:11:08Security, get her out of my house.
01:11:11Now.
01:11:15Touch her, and you'll answer to me.
01:11:18All right.
01:11:28I choose Lily over all of this.
01:11:33What?
01:11:37You are throwing away everything.
01:11:42Your inheritance.
01:11:44Your future.
01:11:46Everything.
01:11:47I'd rather be poor with Lily than rich without her.
01:11:50And if anyone wants to hurt her, they're going to have to go through me first.
01:11:55Ethan, think about what you're doing.
01:11:57Our family business agreement.
01:11:58Oh, you mean this?
01:12:00Oh, you mean this?
01:12:01Business agreement?
01:12:12You can't buy our love.
01:12:14Not with this.
01:12:15Not with anything.
01:12:16Nothing.
01:12:17Oh, no.
01:12:19No one has ever dared challenge me like this.
01:12:21Ethan, you don't know who you're dealing with.
01:12:23Oh, I know exactly who I'm dealing with.
01:12:27And I'm not afraid anymore.
01:12:31Let's get out of here.
01:12:35Ethan, you're nothing without the family name.
01:12:38You're nothing!
01:12:41I need to dance.
01:12:44It's already started.
01:12:46We'll be late.
01:12:48How are we going to get there?
01:12:53Sir, your father asked me to deliver a message.
01:12:58This is your birthday gift.
01:13:00It's yours.
01:13:02No matter what.
01:13:04Is this...
01:13:06his blessing?
01:13:08Without losing face.
01:13:10That's his way.
01:13:12Try not to drive too fast.
01:13:18Put on your dress.
01:13:28I told you not to stop without me.
01:13:31You're still tired.
01:13:42She looks like a princess.
01:13:44They're absolutely perfect together.
01:13:49You look really pretty.
01:13:51You too.
01:13:55You ready?
01:13:57I've never been more ready for anything.
01:14:02May I have this dance, goddess?
01:14:05Really?
01:14:08I'm not afraid anymore.
01:14:13I'm coming back to our place
01:14:17Where I search for your face
01:14:20And I can feel how much it hurts
01:14:26Everything reminds me of you
01:14:30I see you in every space
01:14:33But it's like I'm lost in love
01:14:46You know what's funny?
01:14:50I used to think wearing makeup
01:14:52Was what made me beautiful
01:14:55But being seen truly by you
01:14:59Now that's true, beauty
01:15:03You were always beautiful
01:15:04Lily
01:15:16Hey, get a room, you two
01:15:24Lily Smith
01:15:26Will you be my girlfriend?
01:15:28Will you be my girlfriend?
01:15:32Yes
01:15:34Yes
01:15:44And remember
01:15:45Makeup is art
01:15:47Not armor
01:15:49Swear because you love it
01:15:50Not because you need it
01:15:53Thank you guys
01:15:54The grand opening of Smith Cosmetics
01:15:57Will be happening in two weeks
