Short filmTranscript
00:00My boyfriend is a special forces soldier, and he has a female comrade.
00:04He says they're just pure friends.
00:06At first, I believed him.
00:09Baby, I'm sorry. We have to postpone the wedding again. I got a mission.
00:13The second I got his text, I parked my car 30 feet from the base gate.
00:18Sally, his so-called good friend.
00:22Happy now? I've dumped Bryce six times already.
00:25All for your little games.
00:27This is the last time. I swear.
00:30Next year, I'm finally marrying her.
00:34Didn't you guys just get a new mattress?
00:37Let me break it in real good for the bride-to-be.
00:40Consider it my wedding gift.
00:41I gritted my teeth. I pulled out my phone.
00:45Called his parents.
00:47Hey, is everyone ready?
00:49Let's go set up the apartment.
00:51Yeah. Surprise Zane before the wedding.
00:54If this is just a game to him, fine.
00:57One thing, though.
00:59Don't tell Zane we're all in Arlington.
01:08This is the app for our apartment security camera.
01:11All the way from the front door that they tangled their way from the entrance straight to the bedroom.
01:17The street Christopher medal I'd given him.
01:19He'd sworn he never took it off.
01:22Now it lay discarded like trash.
01:24My heart sank.
01:26Soon, both our families arrived.
01:32Baby, have you seen him?
01:34Have you seen Zane?
01:36Where's our groom-to-be?
01:37Don't worry, honey.
01:40Your grandpa pulled a lot of strings with Zane's commanding officer.
01:43He's not missing this wedding.
01:45Not even if hell freezes over.
01:49Good.
01:50Bryce?
01:51You okay?
01:53You wanted to surprise him, remember?
01:56What are we waiting for?
01:58Let's head up!
01:59A surprise.
02:01Oh, yeah.
02:02There was one hell of a surprise waiting for us upstairs.
02:08Those bright party supplies made me sick to my stomach.
02:12Tears burned my eyes, fast and hot.
02:14I never thought it would be like this.
02:16The home I spent six years designing
02:19had become a playground for his best friend.
02:25Zane, it's time for you to know what it feels like to be betrayed.
02:29The door opened.
02:31Shoes were scattered down the hallway
02:32dot a woman's cardigan lay thrown on the floor.
02:35My face was blank.
02:36I kicked the clothes aside,
02:38as if I was the one intruding.
02:40At the same time,
02:42a voice drifted out from the master bedroom.
02:45Wow, nice bed.
02:46When you're in here with your bride,
02:48you're gonna think of me?
02:50You should replace that couch with leather.
02:52This one scratches.
02:56A dead silence.
02:58Everyone froze.
03:00I picked up the medal from the pile of bras and shirts on the floor,
03:03the one I'd given him.
03:04It was broken in two.
03:08Zane Stone, get out here now!
03:10You hear me?
03:14How dare you cheat on my daughter!
03:16I'll kill you!
03:21Richard?
03:22Richard?
03:23Linda?
03:24John?
03:25What are you all doing here?
03:27No one told me-
03:30You bastard!
03:32She waited for you all these years,
03:34and this is how you repay her?!
03:38Where is she?
03:39Where's the slut who ruined my daughter's life?!
03:42I swear I'll kill her!
03:49You've got it all wrong!
03:50I wasn't supposed to leave until 7 tomorrow morning!
03:53I came back early to surprise Bryce!
03:54I just got out of the shower!
03:56Zane, if you broke my sister's heart, you're done.
04:07The room was clean, too clean, and completely empty.
04:11Zane's mother rushed in quickly.
04:13I knew it.
04:15Zane would never do something like this.
04:17It's not what you think.
04:19Bryce, honestly, you should have stayed upstairs with Zane.
04:24Zane, we would have found somewhere else, you know.
04:26And you.
04:29If you wanted to take a shower, then go take one!
04:32Were you watching porn on your phone again?
04:34Now everyone's got the wrong idea.
04:37Come on, man.
04:39Couldn't you two even wait for the wedding?
04:43Seriously, clean up next time.
04:45Guess I just have terrible luck.
04:47Here I am, watching porn in my own house.
04:52Since everyone's here, why don't we go out for dinner?
04:57What do you say, baby?
05:00Don't be shy, baby.
05:03Just take everyone out to eat first.
05:06I'll explain the video later.
05:07It's not what you think.
05:09Trust me.
05:11Say something.
05:13They're all waiting.
05:15Trust him?
05:15Was he worried everyone was waiting?
05:17Or was he worried about the girl?
05:23Yeah, it was a misunderstanding.
05:25Our bad.
05:26Let's just stay in tonight.
05:28We can order Chinese takeout.
05:29Have a nice time.
05:30No!
05:31It's too late.
05:35There are no restaurant nearby.
05:39Even if we order now, it'll take forever.
05:42My parents are right, baby.
05:44Let's go out to eat.
05:45They were trying to get us all out so Sally Lynn could slip away.
05:48Not a chance.
05:51Let's just stay in.
05:53Everyone's tired.
05:57Zane's parents looked uneasy.
05:59They sat down anyway.
06:00As I made tea in the kitchen, Zane stepped over and lowered his voice.
06:04Bryce, did you get my text?
06:06I was trying to surprise you.
06:08I just didn't expect such a reaction.
06:12What text?
06:14What did you send me?
06:15Sorry, I've been busy setting up.
06:18Haven't checked my phone.
06:20Don't bother.
06:21The wedding's still on.
06:23Tomorrow, we get married as planned.
06:25I gave him a sharp smile and pushed past him.
06:28Back in the living room, everyone started decorating.
06:31Some blew up balloons.
06:33Others arranged flowers.
06:34And the master bedroom?
06:36That job was left to us.
06:37The bride and groom.
06:38I reached toward the bed, planning to scatter rose petals.
06:42Zane ripped everything off.
06:44The sheets, comforter, all of it.
06:46Threw them straight on the floor.
06:47No one's slept here in a while.
06:49Probably Dusty.
06:54Sit down.
06:55I'll do it.
06:57Baby, I know you've been holding it alone all these years.
07:00I know it hasn't been easy.
07:02But once I get promoted, I'll leave the military.
07:06We can finally have the life you want.
07:08A normal life.
07:10Just us.
07:11I couldn't listen anymore.
07:22I had just reached out when his arms wrapped around my waist from behind.
07:26Wait.
07:27I was furious.
07:28I snapped at him.
07:29What the hell are you doing?
07:32I was falling apart.
07:34Zane, what are you hiding?
07:35I burst into the bathroom.
07:36I tore the place apart.
07:38Nothing.no sign of Sally Lynn.
07:40Zane let out a long breath of relief.
07:42Baby, stop this.
07:43Come on out.
07:44The food's here.
07:45The smell of takeout filled the apartment.
07:47In that moment, my vision blurred.
07:50This was the life I'd once dreamed of.my parents.
07:53My husband.
07:54Family, all of us sitting around a table.
07:57Elders talking about everyday things, young ones talking about dreams, love, the future.
08:02Bryce, why are you just standing there?
08:04Come on out.
08:05The food's here.
08:06It was all fake.
08:07If she wasn't in the apartment, there was only one place left.
08:11Sally was outside, hiding on the air conditioning unit outside the bathroom window.
08:19At that moment, only one thing mattered to me.
08:22Would Sally actually come inside half-naked, begging for mercy?
08:26Would she admit she'd slept with another woman's man?
08:28Or would she stay out there, in the cold winter?
08:30Either humiliated, or frozen stiff.
08:33Her choice.
08:34When the second order of takeout arrived, and still no one made a move to leave, Zane finally broke.
08:40Agony was written all over his face.
08:42He looked at me as if begging.
08:44Bryce, let's go back to the hotel.
08:46Please.
08:47If we stay, things are going to get real bad.
08:49How bad?
08:50What happens if we stay?
08:52Zane, don't tell me you're hiding some girl in our place.
08:55Where is she?
08:56Outside the window?
08:57Yeah.
08:57Maybe I should go check.
08:59Bryce, honey, are you drunk?
09:01There's no one out there.
09:02Yeah.
09:03What is she, Spider-Man?
09:04It's freezing out.
09:05No one could stay out there.
09:06Bryce, please, let's go.
09:09I'll drive everyone back.
09:11Okay.
09:12Yeah.
09:12Tomorrow's a big day.
09:14The doorbell rang again, again.
09:16I opened the door, firefighters and paramedics rushed in.
09:20Unit 503, right?
09:21We got a call.
09:22Someone's about to jump.
09:24Which room has the AC unit outside?
09:26Hurry, move it.
09:27Everyone froze.
09:30Just then, my dad stepped forward.
09:32Are you sure you have the right place?
09:34Our whole family's here.
09:36No one's jumping.
09:37Yeah, this has to be a mistake.
09:38We're here for the couple's housewarming party.
09:40Maybe it's the neighbor.
09:41You sure you didn't get the wrong apartment?
09:43Hurry, hurry.
09:43She's gonna fall.
09:44Move in, we don't have much time.
09:47I looked at the Stone family.
09:49All three looked sick.
09:51I didn't wait.
09:52I headed straight for the master bathroom.
09:55I shoved the window open.
09:57There she was.
09:58Her body in nothing but underwear, perched on the AC unit below.
10:02Sally Lynn.
10:04Her hands were white-knuckling the metal edge.
10:06The second she saw us, she screamed at Zane behind me.
10:09Zane, damn it!
10:10Get someone over here!
10:12I can't hold on much longer!
10:14Now my family understood.
10:16Chaos erupted.
10:17They tackled Zane to the floor.
10:20Firefighters rushed to the window.
10:22They tried to pull Sally up.
10:24Everything happened at once.
10:26Shouting.
10:27Running.
10:28Pure chaos.
10:29A sharp scream cut through.
10:31Her fingers slipped.
10:33She fell.
10:34Everyone looked down.
10:53By then, everyone had seen her face.
10:56It was unrecognizable.
10:57Blood everywhere.
10:58Ambulance sirens blared through the neighborhood.
11:02Zane.
11:02The wedding's off.
11:04With that, we turned and walked out.
11:06No one looked back.
11:08After Bryce left, Zane finally realized.
11:11Before, when he'd messed around with Sally, Bryce had always looked hurt.
11:16But tonight, only coldness.
11:18This is all your fault.
11:20I told you to stay away from that trash.
11:22You wouldn't listen.
11:23You left that girl hanging on an AC unit outside your apartment?
11:26Half the building was filming.
11:28If that video gets out, your career is over.
11:30Go get Bryce back.
11:31Now.
11:31If you lose her, don't come home.
11:40Mr. Stone, this is County General Hospital.
11:42We need you to come in.
11:43Immediately.
11:44Sally Lynn has no family here.
11:46We need assistance.
11:47When he arrived at the hospital, they were rushing Sally into surgery.
11:50Her face was swollen beyond recognition.
11:53Baby, help me.
11:55I don't want to die.
11:57I can't lose my face.
11:59Her skin was pale and blue-purple.
12:01He turned around and threw up.
12:09A minute later, he faced the doctor.
12:13Save her.
12:13Whatever it takes.
12:15Her fingers have severe frostbite.
12:17She may lose them.
12:18She has extreme facial trauma.
12:19She could need years of reconstructive surgery.
12:21This is all your fault.
12:22All of it.
12:22You hit me outside like...
12:24I'm right.
12:24Just please don't let them take my fingers and my face.
12:26No, please don't.
12:27If I end up like this, you can't leave me.
12:29You owe me.
12:30You did this to me.
12:31If my life is ruined, I'll ruin yours too.
12:33You made your choice.
12:34So did I.
12:35You were never my future.
12:36Just I hope nothing more.
12:37Bryce is the one I want to spend my life with.
12:43It was past three in the morning.
12:45Someone started pounding on my door.
12:47Baby, open up.
12:49Please open the door.
12:50It's me.
12:52Let me explain.
12:54Trust me, please.
12:57It's not what you think.
12:59I had just opened the door when Zayn rushed in.
13:02I'm sorry.
13:02I'm so, so sorry.
13:04Please listen to me.
13:05Sally Lynn is just a friend.
13:07She's no different from Charlie or the other guys.
13:09I know I messed up.
13:11I never should have let it get like that.
13:13But you have to believe me.
13:14I love you.
13:15Only you.
13:16I shoved him away.
13:17Hard.
13:17I'd heard this line too many times.
13:19Far too many.
13:20The first time was at Zayn's college reunion.
13:22We just started dating.
13:26Holding his drink, laughing right in his face.
13:28Her hands wandering over his stomach.
13:30I just stared at her.
13:31She burst out laughing suddenly.
13:33Oh my god.
13:35I just noticed something.
13:37Looks like Zayn's got nothing to hide tonight.
13:40Everyone laughed.
13:41I stood there like an idiot.
13:42Hey, don't get it wrong.
13:43They've always been like this since freshman year.
13:45No filter.
13:45Sally slid off his lap.
13:47Smile still on her face.
13:48Relax.
13:49I don't see him like that at all.
13:50If I wanted him, I would have had him already.
13:53Not here.
13:54Cut me some slack.
13:55Everybody's watching.
13:56After that, it only got worse.
13:57Always the same labels.
13:59Just friends.
13:59Just joking.
14:00Come on, baby.
14:00Put him on.
14:02Let me see.
14:05Bryce doesn't get jealous over something this small.
14:08The day we got engaged, she showed up in a dress almost identical to mine.
14:13Since Zayn's getting married, I obviously can't dress too casual.
14:18Be honest.
14:19Who looks better?
14:21Your girlfriend?
14:22Or your best friend?
14:24Choose wisely.
14:29That night, I almost cried.
14:31Sally, that's enough.
14:32You've gone too far.
14:33He pulled me into his arms.
14:36This is my fiance.
14:38Her name is Bryce.
14:39No one disrespects her.
14:41Not even a best friend.
14:43Watch it next time.
14:45I told myself maybe they really were just that close.
14:48Nothing more.
14:49Until I saw them making out outside the base.
14:51That night, I broke completely.
14:54I broke completely.
14:54Don't explain.
14:55We're done.
14:56I know everything.
14:58Every time you cancelled our plans, you were lying to me!
15:03I took a deep breath.
15:04Be honest.
15:05It should have ended the first time I saw her sitting on your lap.
15:08The first time she drank from your glass and laughed at me right in front of my face.
15:14Six years, Zane.
15:16You might not be tired, but I am.
15:18I pushed him out the door, locked it, and climbed into bed.
15:21The next morning, the story blew up online.
15:25Mistress caught naked hiding on window ledge AC unit.
15:28I watched the video, footage of Sally clinging to the AC unit outside the window.
15:32Her face was blurred.
15:33Didn't matter.
15:34People still recognized her.
15:36Oh my god, is that hisy other woman.
15:38Please when seeing a slut exposed.
15:40Like, wait, is that his height?
15:42I stopped reading and locked my phone.
15:46My family and I checked out of the Arlington Hotel and headed out.
15:49Ms. Chandler, we're with personnel security from Mr. Stone's command.
15:53We need to speak with you.
15:54Mom stepped in front of me.
15:55Dad looked tense.
15:56It's fine.
15:57Go back.
15:58I'll handle it.
15:59Right before I got in the car, she was crying.
16:02Don't be scared.
16:03Tell the truth.
16:04That's all.
16:04I nodded and got in.
16:07People thought I was easygoing, thought I didn't hold grudges.
16:11They were wrong.
16:12I just didn't waste anger on small things.
16:14But if you crossed the line, I made you pay.
16:17When I sat across from Zane's commanding officer, I slid a folder across the table.
16:21For six years, every time Zane canceled our wedding, he blamed his job.
16:26He lied.
16:26All the evidence is in there.
16:31Before Zane's commanding officer could speak.
16:34Sir, we have a situation.
16:35A woman is screaming at the main security gate.
16:38We stepped outside into Arlington's bitter wind.
16:41Sally Lynn stood at the gate.
16:42Her brother pushed her wheelchair.
16:44She looked wrecked.
16:45Zane Stone, get out here.
16:47You didn't have a problem sleeping with me?
16:49Now you won't even look at me?
16:51The doctor said my face will be permanently scarred.
16:53This is all your fault.
16:54You ruined my life.
16:55You're going to pay for this.
16:56Are you insane?
16:57This is a Department of Defense base.
16:59You are not allowed to be here.
17:00She's here.
17:01Why can't I be here?
17:03They're not the same.
17:04She knows about us.
17:05So stop acting like she's your wife and I'm a stranger.
17:09To you, we're the same.
17:11They are not the same.
17:12Do you have any idea how much influence her family has in Washington?
17:14Oh, so that's it.
17:16You don't even want a wife.
17:17You want a shortcut.
17:18I thought you were just an asshole, Zane.
17:20Turns out you're just a climber.
17:22Marrying her for her last name?
17:24Pathetic.
17:27Before he could throw the punch, two military police officers grabbed him.
17:32Have you lost your mind?
17:33You brought an unauthorized civilian onto our base yesterday and now today?
17:39No, sir.
17:40No.
17:40Let me explain.
17:41I didn't tell her to come today.
17:42I swear to God, it's not what you think.
17:45Sir, all the information you need is in the file.
17:49I'm finished here.
17:50My grandfather is expecting me back in Washington, D.C.
17:55Bryce!
17:56Wait!
17:56Call your grandfather!
17:58Please!
17:59Please!
17:59They'll revoke my security clearance!
18:01I can end up in federal prison!
18:03Now he was truly begging.
18:05Too late.
18:07I drove straight back to Washington.
18:09D.C.
18:09I told Grandpa everything.
18:11Every single thing that happened.
18:12A civilian?
18:14Near a Department of Defense perimeter?
18:16That arrogant little brat thinks federal security laws don't apply to him?
18:20Six years.
18:22Six years he's been playing you.
18:24Does he think I'm powerless now that I'm retired?
18:26Does he think I'm dead?
18:27Grandpa, stop.
18:29He's not worth your call.
18:31Let him destroy himself.
18:33A week later, everything collapsed.
18:35Sally Wynn couldn't let it go.
18:37She was furious.
18:38And she was stupid.
18:39Hopelessly stupid.
18:41What if those cameras had captured something sensitive?
18:44This was no longer just a scandal.
18:46Zane wouldn't just lose his security clearance that he faced serious federal charges.
18:51Bryce!
18:52You have to help him!
18:53He's our only son!
18:55We'll die if the FBI takes him!
19:00It's all my fault!
19:02I should have stopped him six years ago!
19:04You knew?
19:06Every time he cancelled our wedding, you knew he was with Sally?
19:10You covered for him.
19:12You hid her things in my home.
19:14I thought you were just protecting your son.
19:17But you lied to my face.
19:20For six whole years!
19:23You love your son, I get it.
19:26But I'm someone's daughter too.
19:29Did you really think I'd stay quiet?
19:33No!
19:34No!
19:34No!
19:35No!
19:36No!
19:36No!
19:37No!
19:38I took my parents to Aspen for the holidays.
19:41We rented a remote cabin, far away from everything.
19:44I needed the snow.
19:45To freeze all the pain inside me.
19:49Zayn was gone, locked up in federal prison.
19:52And Sally?
19:53The video of her at the base went viral, the internet tore her to pieces.
19:59People threw trash at her scarred face.
20:02She lost her mind completely.
20:06They found her the next morning, frozen solid in the snow.
20:10When I came back, it was all over.
20:12In the end, everyone pays for what they've done.
