00:00:02I've always described the world in words people moments places all through
00:00:10metaphors and margins okay like my mom self-made stubborn and never wrong
00:00:18almost there you excited for your first day she calls this a fresh start I call it terrifying
00:00:31you've got this just for yourself that's kind of the problem
00:01:04okay morning class and you're not seated because I don't have a seat ah a new
00:01:16transfer Alice Keaton right let's see there's a spot next to Charles seriously
00:01:27a charity case sitting next to Charles quiet Charles I've always had words for
00:01:38everything but in that moment I forgot them all
00:01:53Charles move your things I'd rather not she'll be a distraction from what
00:02:00sleeping from everything if anything Charles Miss Keaton will be a positive
00:02:05influence on you she was top of her class at a previous school with all due
00:02:11respect sir her previous school was American I highly doubt that that's
00:02:19enough she can sit here it's fine
00:02:24back to Goldie thank you you got it I'm Sherry Vaughn Alice Keaton it's very important that we look at
00:02:33what he's talking about their experience of the time
00:02:39wait you sat next to Charles she didn't you totally shut her down oh knew it don't take it
00:02:46personally he's impossible can everyone stop acting like the goal is getting into his pants
00:02:51what he's hot everyone kind of is I I've seen Connor he's not my type you're joking I don't find
00:03:01bullies attractive hey be careful we're talking about the king of Ashford the what his family
00:03:08basically own the school and the town maybe even the country yeah everyone's tried to get close no
00:03:15one can get past his ego you're not the first to get nice okay first of all I wasn't iced
00:03:21it's more
00:03:21like a mutual decision and second I think he's arrogant cold thinks he's untouchable but if you
00:03:29really look at Charles he just seems isolated like he's making honestly I just think he's lonely and
00:03:36kind of pathetic what no go on you were saying I'm lonely and pathetic next time read the room

00:06:15house my library and now apparently my unwanted guest ah master Charles must be miss Alice and daughter
00:06:26she said she said you'd be moving in today she what there there's been some kind of misunderstanding you
00:06:32see I'm not actually moving in that's up yeah I'm not staying here like at all that's a shame you
00:06:40must
00:06:40seem quite pleased with the arrangement well I just don't think it's appropriate well you're sure then
00:06:46absolutely not come on Alice you must stay it'll be fun my dear classmate I'm dead like mentally socially
00:07:04and actually dead just trying to figure out how exactly my life went off the rails get it together
00:07:18Alice Keaton you've been through hell actually no this is hell good morning
00:07:46Alice Keaton what thing doesn't know that stops been closed for months she's going to be late
00:07:59okay how long is this thing gonna take maybe I'll just walk five miles to school
00:08:07okay if I sprint maybe I'll make it before first period or die of exhaustion on the way
00:08:20what what are you doing here didn't you already leave
00:08:26wait did you come back for me relax I forgot my textbook don't flatter yourself wait
00:08:39since you're already here maybe you could be a decent person and give me a ride
00:08:48no seriously your car is huge yeah and I'm not a fan of sharing says the guy who forced me
00:08:58to live in
00:08:59his house unbelievable
00:09:13Ashford Institute please thank you
00:09:20who needs an entitled brat anyway sir you called the cab why not just give miss Keaton a lift
00:09:32why not just give miss Keaton a lift and have the whole school go crazy she's new everybody's
00:09:38already talking so you're worried about her you're overthinking I just don't like drama
00:09:51asshole hey morning class back to Golding remind me what he's saying through Lord of the Flies
00:10:04Mr Kenwood care to share what you found so amusing
00:10:08not particularly oh I insist you seem very entertained by Golding
00:10:14I'm not entertained by Golding sir on the contrary I think his ending is weak
00:10:22wait wait do I actually read it quiet
00:10:28that's an interesting take explain
00:10:32he had the set up for something brutal something honest in the end he backed out he could have left
00:10:39the boys on the island force them to confront the collapse of all morality let them choose survival
00:10:45or death but instead he gave them a rescue boat slapped a happily ever after on a book about savagery
00:10:56it's a waste don't you think I'm delightfully surprised Charles didn't think you had such strong
00:11:02literary opinions I'm always a model student sir let's not get ahead of ourselves
00:11:09so a critique of Golding's mercy anyone disagree
00:11:29I think Golding knew exactly what he was doing by ending the book that way it's not mercy it's irony
00:11:35how so
00:11:38the rescue isn't a happy ending you don't just walk back into society and forget you're a monster
00:11:44Golding didn't save them he left us with the discomfort of pretending they could be saved
00:11:48that's an interesting take Miss Keeter you still think it's a harsh critique
00:11:53in some ways but not harsh enough yes it's a critique of toxic masculinity but still Golding
00:12:02sympathize with them and the civilized world toxic violent he didn't call that out nearly as much
00:12:07so yeah I don't think Golding pushed far enough but I think it's unfair to call it a happy ending
00:12:16thank you Miss Keeter well said anyone else
00:12:23both opinions are valid okay that's kind of epic Golding faced major backlash when he first published
00:12:30the book good literature will always divide what's happening to me
00:12:43okay what is going on why is everyone staring at me well you're new and apparently had a thing
00:12:49with Charles oh what now you two are in the middle of this epic feud as your teen in years
00:12:56we're not
00:12:56even fighting well according to everyone you confessed your love on day one got rejected
00:13:01begged to sit next to him got rejected again and today in class you broke down crying about not
00:13:08believing in happy endings and stormed out in tears you were there Sherry that is not what happened
00:13:17doesn't matter people believe what they want to believe and they want Charles to be flawless
00:13:23untouchable wow is massage any like a rich kid thing or is a British specialty honestly both but
00:13:31seriously Alice some people already see you as a threat okay loaded it's like the new girls in for a
00:13:46rough
00:13:47first semester hello hello is somebody out there
00:14:08oh come on fine
00:14:24fine

00:15:00yikes looks like the new girls in for a rough first semester
00:15:09shit
00:15:14Alice
00:15:15Alice
00:15:16Mr Pelton Charles Kenwood here I was wondering if I could get the timetable for Alice Keaton

00:16:41You're welcome.
00:16:42I didn't say thank you.
00:16:44I figured saving your life might earn me basic manners.
00:16:47Someone just dumped swamp water on me.
00:16:50Excuse me if I'm not feeling very polite.
00:16:52You smell like a biology experiment.
00:16:54Wow.
00:16:55You should try falling out of a window into someone's arms and getting insulted for it.
00:16:59I wouldn't recommend it.
00:17:01You're heavier than you look.
00:17:04I hope you pull your shoulder.
00:17:11Are you okay?
00:17:12No.
00:17:14But I will be.
00:17:16Someone did this on purpose.
00:17:18What do you think, golden boy?
00:17:21Don't worry, I can handle it.
00:17:22You shouldn't have to.
00:17:26I'm...
00:17:27Sorry.
00:17:34Sorry.
00:17:35Sorry.
00:17:40Did you just apologize to me?
00:17:42Don't get used to it.
00:17:43I wouldn't dream of it.
00:17:47Alice?
00:17:48Alice?
00:17:49Over here.
00:17:50Oh my God.
00:17:52You okay?
00:17:55Why are you drenched?
00:17:57Yeah.
00:17:57I just...
00:17:58I took a weird shower.
00:18:00Top exploded.
00:18:03Come on.
00:18:04Let's go.
00:18:04There you go.
00:18:15Alice's cheating, right?
00:18:17I heard she staged the whole thing for attention.
00:18:43I know how this place works.
00:18:45If you don't do anything about it, it's only going to get worse.
00:18:50I'll look into it.
00:18:52Charles?
00:18:55Good on you.
00:18:56How many here would speak up?
00:19:02I can't believe someone actually locked you in.
00:19:04That's insane.
00:19:14That's insane.
00:19:15He ran out when he ran out last night.
00:19:17Please.
00:19:17He just didn't want a lawsuit.
00:19:36Being a scholarship student has its perks.
00:19:38Like saving a fortune on tuition.
00:19:41And getting into schools that normally wouldn't even let you pass the gates.
00:19:46Hey!
00:19:47We miss you in Paris.
00:19:49Though there are enough Americans to remind us of you.
00:19:52But sometimes, being here means staying behind.
00:19:55And watching Ashford Elites go on a two-week enrichment program you can never afford.
00:20:02Have fun.
00:20:03Bring me something overpriced and unnecessary.
00:20:10The trip cost 20 grand in pounds.
00:20:13Which translates to mom's salary for half a year.
00:20:17So yeah.
00:20:18I didn't go.
00:20:20I didn't go.
00:20:40What are you doing here?
00:20:41Do you not believe in shirts?
00:20:43Do you not believe in dignity?
00:20:45It's comfortable.
00:20:46You look like a rejected Ewok.
00:20:48This is not even your kitchen.
00:20:51And this is not even your house.
00:20:52And yet you're here, dressed like this.
00:20:55Just don't look.
00:20:56Go away.
00:20:57Hard not to.
00:20:58And you're walking around dressed like that.
00:21:00What do you guys call it?
00:21:02Um, buzzkill, cockblock.
00:21:06You're insufferable.
00:21:07You're the one cosplaying at breakfast.
00:21:09You know what?
00:21:10I don't get it.
00:21:11Why didn't you go on that tour?
00:21:12I thought rich people live for that kind of thing.
00:21:14Why do you think?
00:21:21Why would I go?
00:21:22I could practically recite the itinerary in my sleep.
00:21:26Florence.
00:21:27Walk in the great footsteps of Dante, Michelangelo, Da Vinci and Titian.
00:21:32Or Tiziano, if you want to sound extra pretentious.
00:21:36Then Venice, because everybody loves a good canal and getting lost in the most confusing city on earth.
00:21:42The next stop, Napoli, marvel at Pompeii.
00:21:45Pretend you're shocked ancient people had plumbing.
00:21:48The final stop, Harry, the ultimate city of romance.
00:21:54And naturally, Woody Allen's favourite city outside of New York.
00:22:01That's word for word.
00:22:03I told you.
00:22:04I've done this tour so many times, I could run it.
00:22:07Okay, but still, it's Europe.
00:22:09Most people would kill for that chance.
00:22:11Most people haven't had their phones stolen in Paris.
00:22:14Twice.
00:22:16Also, I hate the accommodations.
00:22:18Aren't they all five-star hotels?
00:22:20Standard rooms in five-star hotels.
00:22:23No thank you.
00:22:25Wow, some were born in Rome, huh?
00:22:27That's unfortunate, it's a very chaotic city.
00:22:30One word of advice, shut up.
00:22:32That's two words.
00:22:35You're weird.
00:22:36You're loud.
00:22:37You're annoying.
00:22:37You're in my kitchen.
00:22:38You have three other kitchens.
00:22:40And I prefer this one.
00:22:42Just for today.
00:22:43Come back when you've got a shirt on.
00:22:45Come back with normal clothes on.
00:22:46You didn't have to come.
00:22:47Don't tell me what I have to do.
00:22:57After Charles, roads are flooded.
00:22:59Staff won't make it tonight.
00:23:00Will you be alright sorting dinner?
00:23:05I've got it sorted.
00:23:18Jesus, what are you doing?
00:23:20Relax.
00:23:23I'm here to make a deal.
00:23:25What deal?
00:23:25You nearly gave me a heart attack.
00:23:31You'll survive.
00:23:33I'm not selling my body.
00:23:38I'm not selling my body.
00:23:44Wow.
00:23:45I am deeply offended.
00:23:48That thought disgusts me.
00:23:50Then what are you doing?
00:23:51The staff's off tonight.
00:23:53I'm buying dinner.
00:23:57Did you seriously think I'd spend 100 pounds on...
00:24:00No, I...
00:24:01Jesus.
00:24:02Wait.
00:24:03You think I'm not worth 100 pounds?
00:24:07I'm not spending 100 pounds to snore Chewbacca.
00:24:11You know what?
00:24:11Dinner's cancelled.
00:24:15Are you sure about that?
00:24:18I present to you.
00:24:20Meatball spaghetti, stir-fried veggies, and french fries.
00:24:23You're welcome.
00:24:25Interesting combo.
00:24:26Well, I know we're not in Italy or France, but this will do.
00:24:30It's...
00:24:32good.
00:24:38Was that a compliment?
00:24:40Although, I am obliged to inform you.
00:24:43Meatball spaghetti isn't Italian.
00:24:45It's American.
00:24:46And french fries, likely born in South America.
00:24:49You should read more.
00:24:52Put it down.
00:24:54I paid for it.
00:24:55You really just have to win every argument, don't you?
00:24:57To be fair,
00:24:59you make it very easy.
00:25:02It's only easy because it costs 200 pounds.
00:25:05You know, if you'd ask for more, I probably would have given it to you.
00:25:07I'll make sure that.
00:25:23Hey, Alice, it's fine.
00:25:25You're fine.
00:25:33911, look for your emergency.
00:25:39911, what's for your emergency?

00:35:42Serena took my phone. I didn't know. I'm sorry.
00:35:45I'm okay.
00:35:48You're gonna catch a cold.
00:35:49You're freezing.
00:35:50You didn't have to come.
00:35:54Don't tell me what I have to do.
00:36:19That wasn't a mistake, if that's what you're about to say.
00:36:24I... wasn't going to.
00:36:37I'm really bad at this, you know.
00:36:40What? Kissing?
00:36:41Hiding feelings.
00:36:43I don't like that.
00:37:04Dump those Ewok pyjamas.
00:37:07Oh, you wish.
00:37:10Seriously, it's a cock block.
00:37:13You kissed me.
00:37:15That's basically consent to everything.
00:37:23Dangerous words, Keaton.
00:37:25I might hold you to that.
00:37:36You'll be working in pairs on your comparative essays.
00:37:39The list is on the board.
00:37:42One, two, three, four.
00:37:46Paper planes.
00:37:48Are you okay?
00:37:49Fly me to outer space.
00:37:53That's where I'll see your face.
00:37:58And have you with me.
00:38:09You're distracting.
00:38:18You're welcome.
00:38:22They're either enemies or secretly married.
00:38:27Honestly.
00:38:28Honestly.
00:38:28Right?
00:38:31I was sure I'd never find someone to make my head spin around.
00:38:35No one's ever gonna be the thing I need.
00:38:37They all just let me down.
00:38:39But baby, you saved me.
00:38:42Until I'm brand new.
00:38:45Everything's so different now.
00:38:48So, the night goes in an L shape, right?
00:38:52Why is that the only one you remember?
00:38:55Because it's weird.
00:38:56And I like weird.
00:39:12You're cheating.
00:39:14I'm winning.
00:39:15There's a difference.
00:39:16You are very distracting.
00:39:18And you like it.
00:39:20I will be the funny one day.
00:39:23I'll be the darkest place.
00:39:28Hold you in my arms.
00:39:30Charles.
00:39:32We need to talk.
00:39:40I expected poor judgment.
00:39:43But this in my house?
00:39:45It isn't what it looks like.
00:39:46No?
00:39:47Kissing a servant's daughter in the family library.
00:39:51Enlighten me then, Charles.
00:39:53We came back tonight after speaking with Serena.
00:39:55Imagine our surprise walking in on this.
00:39:59She isn't just...
00:40:01You have no right to barge in.
00:40:03On my property.
00:40:07I care about her.
00:40:09I'm not ashamed of her.
00:40:10That's enough.
00:40:13Why do you care?
00:40:15We're protecting our son's future.
00:40:18And our name.
00:40:19You think this protects me.
00:40:21We think she does not belong in your world.
00:40:28Then maybe I don't either.
00:40:31You're ready to give up everything.
00:40:33For a girl you barely know.
00:40:38Yes.
00:40:39Then are you sure she's ready?
00:40:49I'm asking you.
00:40:50Do you think she's ready?
00:40:52To lose everything, regardless of how little that is.
00:40:55Just to be with you.
00:40:56What are you talking about?
00:40:58You left us no choice, son.
00:41:00You shouldn't disobey your father.
00:41:04Pelton.
00:41:05It's Frederick Kenwood.
00:41:07Ah, Mr. Kenwood.
00:41:09How can I help?
00:41:10If a scholarship student were to violate our behavioural code
00:41:14in a public setting with photographic evidence,
00:41:17would that warrant a review?
00:41:20Yes, sir.
00:41:24So, answer me again.
00:41:27Do you think she's ready to lose everything just to be with you?
00:41:31Yes.
00:41:42Charles, what happened?
00:41:43Did your parents say something?
00:41:44Are they mad?
00:41:44Is everything okay?
00:41:46Pack your things.
00:41:49You can't stay here anymore.
00:41:51What?
00:41:53My parents fired your mother.
00:41:55She's leaving.
00:41:56So are you.
00:41:57Wait, what?
00:41:58Why?
00:41:59Is it because of us?
00:42:00We can fix this.
00:42:01I'll get a job, anything.
00:42:02Stop, stop it.
00:42:03You don't get it.
00:42:05If I don't walk away from this,
00:42:06they'll cut me off.
00:42:08Okay?
00:42:09No card.
00:42:10No trust.
00:42:11No support.
00:42:13Nothing.
00:42:14Then,
00:42:15then we'll figure it out.
00:42:17We don't need all that.
00:42:18We can...
00:42:18Do you really think I'm going to live like that?
00:42:24So that's what this was.
00:42:26Just fun until it got inconvenient.
00:42:30What did they promise you?
00:42:34Nothing.
00:42:38They just reminded me of what's real.
00:42:44Charles, I'm not stupid.
00:42:46You don't just turn into a cold stranger because of one conversation.
00:42:49What did they threaten you with?
00:42:56What did they threaten you with?
00:42:58This is the difference between me and you.
00:43:00What?
00:43:01You think you know me.
00:43:03Or what I have.
00:43:04You don't, Alice.
00:43:07You're still lying.
00:43:08I'm not, Alice.
00:43:10Look around you.
00:43:11This mansion you thought was a museum.
00:43:13It's my house.
00:43:16My world.
00:43:18I was bored into this.
00:43:20I am not choosing between this
00:43:22and something I picked up for a moment of fun.
00:43:30Don't do this, Charles.
00:43:32You don't mean it.
00:43:33It was fun.
00:43:34But you, you don't compare to what I own.
00:43:40I'll survive the loss.
00:43:44Right.
00:43:47I should have known.
00:43:50Guys like you don't end up with girls like me.
00:43:55You play with them, then you throw them away.
00:43:59Go to sleep, Alice.
00:44:12This fall is a little more than I expected
00:44:17and so deep I can barely see myself.
00:44:24Yeah, around me feels so heavy but depleted
00:44:30but I find this place to test myself.
00:44:42Oops.
00:45:00Oh, sorry.
00:45:01Didn't see that.
00:45:03Then again, nobody does.
00:45:05Move, please.
00:45:06Hmm.
00:45:08Try begging.
00:45:14You know what?
00:45:15Keep it.
00:45:21Poor thing.
00:45:22So dramatic.
00:45:24Don't.
00:45:26Excuse me?
00:45:27I warned you.
00:45:29Walk away, Serena.
00:45:32Oh.
00:45:50Last week's group assignments were mostly forgettable
00:45:54but one pair surprised me in a good way.
00:45:57Charles Kenwood
00:45:59and Alice Keaton.
00:46:01Would you mind giving us her short summary?
00:46:04If she loves the sound of her own voice,
00:46:05better have it.
00:46:07I couldn't stay.
00:46:08I couldn't wait.
00:46:09I thought that you should know that I would have.
00:46:13Can hang around.
00:46:14Our essay explored what happens
00:46:17when two fundamentally different voices meet.
00:46:19Like logic and chaos
00:46:21or silence and noise.
00:46:24Different worlds,
00:46:25different rules.
00:46:28At first glance,
00:46:29they clash.
00:46:30But what makes the story interesting
00:46:32is what happens next.
00:46:34Confusion.
00:46:35Curiosity.
00:46:36But in the end,
00:46:38some stories aren't about staying.
00:46:40And yes,
00:46:41there is no such thing as a happy ending.
00:46:52And yes,
00:46:53there is no such thing as a happy ending.
00:46:56Is she still talking about the essay?
00:47:01Miss Keaton.
00:47:03Dramatic as always.
00:47:05Alright.
00:47:06Thank you, Alice.
00:47:07That was...
00:47:09later.
00:47:11Are you okay?
00:47:11A reminder.
00:47:13That good literature
00:47:15always stirs something.
00:47:19Hello?
00:47:20Hi, here's Alice Keaton.
00:47:21This is Whitmore Press.
00:47:22We've been following your work.
00:47:24We'd like to offer you
00:47:24a long-term publishing contract.
00:47:26Name your price.
00:47:27We'll make it work.
00:47:28Sorry, what?
00:47:33That's...
00:47:34kind of insane.
00:47:36Who's behind this?
00:47:37Your sponsor wishes to remain anonymous.
00:47:40Can...
00:47:41can I meet them?
00:47:44I want to.
00:47:45Please.
00:47:47Or at least tell me a name.
00:47:52Sorry, they wish to stay in office.
00:47:53So they're only interested in work,
00:47:55not the person.
00:47:55I'd really like to meet them.
00:47:57I'm sorry, Miss Keaton.
00:47:58Name was very good.
00:47:59I think the most generous offer
00:48:00we've ever given a disability right now.
00:48:03I see.
00:48:03Congratulations again.
00:48:09You got the interview.
00:48:11It's just an interview.
00:48:11I haven't gotten it yet.
00:48:13Still,
00:48:13Alice Keaton at Oxford.
00:48:15That's iconic.
00:48:16For your love,
00:48:19I'll be called by my man.
00:48:25You okay?
00:48:27Yeah.
00:48:28I'm so excited.
00:48:42It's done,
00:48:43Mr. Kenwood.
00:48:44Miss Keaton signed the contract.
00:48:47Good.
00:48:48It's a generous deal.
00:48:49You sure you don't want it to know?
00:48:52No.
00:48:53No,
00:48:54it's better if I stay out of her life.
00:49:05Congratulations,
00:49:07Alice Keaton.
00:49:08Go live the life
00:49:09you were always meant to.
00:49:15Your engagement and announcement
00:49:17should align perfectly
00:49:18with the Foundation Gala.
00:49:21And the Browns already offered
00:49:22to host the London Reception.
00:49:25It's all coming together
00:49:27beautifully.
00:49:31I've lost my appetite.
00:49:36I'll go check on him.
00:49:42What's your problem, Charles?
00:49:47This engagement
00:49:49is not happening.
00:49:50It's not up to you.
00:49:51You know that.
00:49:52Serena,
00:49:52we're not doing this.
00:49:55You've changed.
00:49:59Or maybe I finally
00:50:01just stopped pretending.
00:50:29Tals,
00:50:30you're the sponsor.
00:50:32You've been funding
00:50:33Alice Keaton
00:50:33this whole time.
00:50:37So?
00:50:38You lied to everyone,
00:50:40including her.
00:50:41I protected her.
00:50:45You loved her.
00:50:47Still do.
00:50:49Let it go,
00:50:51Serena.
00:50:52There's no point.
00:51:02I need a favour.
00:51:04Find out when the Oxford
00:51:05interview is.
00:51:07And make sure Alice Keaton
00:51:09won't show up.
00:51:14Anything with Lyra?
00:51:16She's not answering.
00:51:18The interview's almost over.
00:51:20Well,
00:51:20shouldn't just not show up.
00:51:22Something's wrong.
00:51:24Where's Alice?
00:51:26When was the last time
00:51:27you heard from her?
00:51:28Last night.
00:51:29She said she was prepping
00:51:29all evening.
00:51:34James,
00:51:35track someone for me.
00:51:38Wait,
00:51:39where are you going?
00:51:47Chill,
00:51:47okay?
00:51:48We won't hurt you.
00:51:50Yeah,
00:51:51we're just supposed to
00:51:52keep you away from the interview.
00:51:53That's it.
00:52:01Shit!
00:52:02Come back!
00:52:03Shit!
00:52:04Shit!
00:52:06Shit!
00:52:07Shit!
00:52:10Shit!
00:52:31I remember how it meant
00:52:35Didn't need a second guess
00:52:40Hey,
00:52:41hey,
00:52:41hey,
00:52:42Alice?
00:52:43Alice,
00:52:44stay with me.
00:52:45Stay with me.
00:52:45Stay with me,
00:52:46Alice.
00:52:46Alice!
00:52:53You're awake?
00:52:55Where,
00:52:55where am I?
00:52:57Local clinic.
00:52:58Passerby brought you in.
00:53:01Passerby.
00:53:02He found you on the side of the road.
00:53:04He had to leave.
00:53:05He didn't leave a name.
00:53:08Oh.
00:53:10The interview!
00:53:11What time is it?
00:53:12Easy.
00:53:13It's okay.
00:53:14Someone already contacted the university.
00:53:16Anne sent in your writing samples.
00:53:18They've rescheduled your interview for tomorrow.
00:53:20Wait,
00:53:20what?
00:53:21Who?
00:53:21No idea,
00:53:22but it's all taken care of.
00:53:26What did you say?
00:53:29What did you say?
00:53:30I just...
00:53:31had a dream.
00:53:43I got in!
00:53:45Ah!
00:53:48I knew it!
00:53:50Too bad Charles isn't here to watch you crush it.
00:53:53He's not here.
00:53:55Oh,
00:53:56you
00:53:56didn't
00:53:57know?
00:53:58Know what?
00:53:59He left.
00:54:00A few days ago,
00:54:02yeah,
00:54:02everyone
00:54:02doesn't really know where he went.
00:54:04Honestly,
00:54:05Astra's been quieter without him.
00:54:07It's probably for the best.
00:54:08Come on.
00:54:14Alice?
00:54:18The summer I met Charles Kenward was loud.
00:54:23Chaotic.
00:54:24Unexpected.
00:54:27And with his absence...
00:54:29Come on!
00:54:30It ended quietly.
00:54:34Like summers always do.
00:54:40Come on.
00:54:49And joining us today,
00:54:51the decade's most unexpected literary phenomenon,
00:54:54Alice Keaton.
00:54:55Thank you for having me.
00:54:56Now,
00:54:57your words moved millions.
00:54:59They say your stories feel real,
00:55:02especially the ones about love.
00:55:05Which brings us to the most obvious question.
00:55:07How's your dating life like these days?
00:55:10No comment.
00:55:11A little bird told me that the past four years
00:55:14has been just writing and working,
00:55:16not even a single date.
00:55:18Let me guess,
00:55:18a bird named Sherry.
00:55:19She caught me.
00:55:20Still no comment.
00:55:22All right.
00:55:22All right.
00:55:23No matter what you say,
00:55:24you write love like someone who's lived it.
00:55:29If you're so real...
00:55:30Because once,
00:55:31I did.
00:55:31That's why today we hear Sherry's story
00:55:34behind Alice Keaton's love.
00:55:36And no one ever quite matched the light after that.
00:55:38And let's give it up for Alice Keaton one more time.
00:55:52Congratulations, Alice.
00:55:53The numbers just came in.
00:55:55You broke your own record.
00:55:58That's...
00:55:59incredible.
00:56:00We're thinking celebration,
00:56:01press,
00:56:02photos,
00:56:03maybe tonight.
00:56:04Actually,
00:56:05there's something I'd rather do.
00:56:08I'd like to meet with the person who
00:56:10believed in me first.
00:56:11my sponsor.
00:56:14You're sure?
00:56:15Yeah.
00:56:16Just once.
00:56:17Tonight,
00:56:187pm.
00:56:29Good evening.
00:56:34Good evening.
00:56:38May I sit?
00:56:43Hey, Mr. Nonchalant.
00:56:48Hi.
00:56:50Hi.
00:56:52You look well.
00:56:56And you look like you just stepped out of a GQ cover.
00:56:59You always did.
00:57:01You were expecting someone else.
00:57:05I was...
00:57:06hoping.
00:57:08But I guess I always knew.
00:57:10I didn't come here to confuse you.
00:57:13Or to reopen anything.
00:57:16I just wanted to say congratulations.
00:57:20Oh.
00:57:24I didn't know you're still reading.
00:57:26You were rich enough not to do so.
00:57:29Always.
00:57:31Either way,
00:57:32your sponsorship started my career.
00:57:35So...
00:57:35No.
00:57:36No, you...
00:57:37you earned everything.
00:57:41Every word.
00:57:43Every page.
00:57:45Every reader.
00:57:47That's what I came to say.
00:57:53It was good to see you again.
00:57:54I hope.
00:57:55Charles.
00:57:57Can you just...
00:58:00wait a little longer?
00:58:07I think I knew it was you.
00:58:10There was one email.
00:58:13You said something.
00:58:15Felt familiar.
00:58:16Really?
00:58:17Kind of had that...
00:58:18rich asshole with a conscience energy.
00:58:21Very on brand.
00:58:23I should have anonymized my grammar.
00:58:25Too late.
00:58:26Your semicolon usage gave you away.
00:58:29Still the only girl I know who flirts through punctuation.
00:58:31Still the only guy I know who uses wilds unironically.
00:58:37You've changed.
00:58:40But...
00:58:46maybe you've grown into who you really were.
00:58:51Anyway...
00:58:52I wanted to say...
00:58:54thank you.
00:58:57And...
00:58:58thanks for being here tonight.
00:59:00You didn't have to come.
00:59:02Don't tell me what I have to do.
00:59:07You didn't have to come.
00:59:09Don't tell me what I have to do.
00:59:14Don't tell me what I have to do.
00:59:31If you could go back,
00:59:33if you had the chance to do it all again,
00:59:35would you do anything differently?
00:59:42No.
00:59:47No.
00:59:52I see.
00:59:56I know my answer now.
00:59:57I didn't have the power back then.
01:00:00Not enough to protect you.
01:00:02I couldn't watch you get crushed because of me.
01:00:05Because of my name.
01:00:07My family.
01:00:10I didn't want to be the reason you lost everything.
01:00:13So you just disappeared.
01:00:14Without a word.
01:00:18If you had the chance to see the world.
01:00:21Without me weighing you down.
01:00:23If you still chose me after that.
01:00:29You keep saying you wanted to give me a choice.
01:00:32But you made a choice for me.
01:00:36Did it ever cross your mind that maybe...
01:00:41I would have chosen you anyway?
01:00:48I don't think I was the smart choice.
01:00:50You weren't.
01:00:53But I never claimed to be that smart.
01:01:04This is me.
01:01:06Right.
01:01:14I'm still mad at you, you know.
01:01:18I'm still in love with you, you know.
01:01:28Do you want to come in for a bit?
01:01:32You're asking your ex, who you haven't seen in four years,
01:01:37to come into your hotel at approximately 11pm.
01:01:41You were right.
01:01:43You never were that smart.
01:01:45You don't have to come.
01:01:47Don't tell me what I have to do.
01:01:49It's almost like you say,
01:01:53where's things better go?
01:02:03Stop quoting yourself.
01:02:04I recycle.
01:02:05It saves energy.
01:02:08This feels wildly irresponsible.
01:02:10You sound like a disclaimer.
01:02:12You're the one who once called romance a distraction.
01:02:14I said that?
01:02:15Yeah.
01:02:16Before calling Wuthering Heights overrated.
01:02:18Still is.
01:02:20You're lucky you're a good kisser.
01:02:25That is cute to me.
01:02:27Don't you dare quote poetry.
01:02:29What's the goings here?
01:02:30I forgot all of it the day you left.
01:02:33Then shut up.
01:02:35And prove it.
01:02:41I still can't believe this is happening.
01:02:43I told you that you're the worst enemies or secretly married.
01:02:47And I told you they're both.
01:02:52It's more than a night to night.
01:03:15I vow to always tell you the truth.
01:03:18Except for when you ask how you're cooking was.
01:03:21Then I lie.
01:03:23Respectfully.
01:03:25I vow to keep choosing you.
01:03:28Loudly.
01:03:30Quietly.
01:03:31Always.
01:03:33Even when you forget to do the laundry.
01:03:37Is he actually good at this?
01:03:39I mean, he did beat her at sarcasm.
01:03:45I vow to argue with you at least twice a week.
01:03:48Especially over Shakespeare.
01:03:50I vow to write you into every story.
01:03:53Even when I say I didn't.
01:03:55You will always be part of my life.
01:03:58If she quotes Austen in this toast, I'm out.
01:04:01No you're not.
01:04:01You're going to cry harder.
01:04:25I can't believe you picked Paris.
01:04:28It's such a cliche honeymoon destination.
01:04:31Guard your phone.
01:04:33Relax.
01:04:34Just don't dress like a walking inheritance and you'll be fine.
01:04:39You are not wearing that on our honeymoon.
01:04:43Please, Alice, go change.
01:04:45Don't tell me what I have to do.
01:04:51No.
01:04:52No.
01:04:53No, no, no, no.
01:04:53That is not an invitation to...
01:04:55Do not take off these clothes.
01:04:56I'm overroared.
01:04:57You look much better without them.
01:05:05To the ones who loved in silence, in chaos, in chapters,
01:05:10you will find your way home.
01:05:17To be on my own,
01:05:18but I don't want to die alone.
01:05:21Cut.
01:05:23What's your love?
01:05:25I feel like cold by the morning.
01:05:32Oopsie.
01:05:35My king.
01:05:38Okay, okay.
01:05:40Okay.
01:05:46it's up to us to make sure that we can gain what's been passed through these books
01:05:51help us develop learn and grow
