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

00:01:27a 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

00:06:32see 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
00:14:38seriously
00:14:42oh shit
00:14:48what the hell
00:14:51Anne I thought you were having dinner with Alice
00:14:52she hasn't come home her phone is off maybe you've seen her this evening
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
00:15:21she hasn't come home she hasn't come home I'll have it sent over check the common room in the library
00:15:26I'll take the rest
00:15:30Alice
00:15:44come on Alice close your eyes and jump it's fine you're fine
00:16:00you're fine
00:16:24you're fine
00:16:27Alice
00:16:29Can you get off me first?
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 sorry.
00:17:34Sorry.
00:17:39Did you just apologize to me?
00:17:42Don't get used to it.
00:17:43I wouldn't dream of it.
00:17:47Alice?
00:17:48Over here.
00:17:49I can't.
00:17:52You okay?
00:17:55Why are you drenched?
00:17:57Yeah, I just took a weird shower.
00:18:00Tap 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.
00:19:05Where the hell was the school when this was happening?
00:19:08Busy protecting their golden boys and trust friends.
00:19:11Well, for what it's worth, I heard Charles looked pretty freaked out when he ran out last night.
00:19:17Please, he just didn't want a lawsuit.
00:19:36Being a scholarship student has its perks, like saving a fortune on tuition and getting
00:19:42into schools that normally wouldn't even let you pass the gates.
00:19:46Hey, we miss you in Paris.
00:19:49There 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, which translates to mom's salary for half a year.
00:20:16So yeah.
00:20:17I didn't go.
00:20:27Ahem.
00:20:40Uh, what 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, this is not even your kitchen.
00:20:50And this is not even your house.
00:20:52And yet, you're here, dressed like this.
00:20:55Just don't, look, go away.
00:20:57Hard not to, when you're walking around dressed like that.
00:21:00What do you guys call it?
00:21:02Um, buzzkill?
00:21:05Cockblock.
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?
00:21:21How would I go?
00:21:22I could practically recite the itinerary in my sleep.
00:21:26Florence, walk 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.
00:21:42Next stop, Napoli.
00:21:44Marvel at Pompeii.
00:21:45Pretend you're shocked ancient people had plumbing.
00:21:48The final stop, Paris.
00:21:51The 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.
00:22:26Some were born in Rome, huh?
00:22:27That's unfortunate.
00:22:28It's a very chaotic city.
00:22:30One word of advice?
00:22:31Shut 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.
00:23:32I'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?
00:23:51Staff's off tonight.
00:23:52I'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.
00:24:04You think I'm not worth 100 pounds?
00:24:07I'm not spending 100 pounds to snort you back up.
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,
00:24:22and french fries.
00:24:23You're welcome.
00:24:25Interesting combo.
00:24:26Well, I know we're not in Italy or France,
00:24:28but this will do.
00:24:30It's...
00:24:31good.
00:24:38Was that a compliment?
00:24:40Although,
00:24:41I am obliged to inform you.
00:24:43Meatball spaghetti isn't Italian.
00:24:45It's American.
00:24:46And french fries,
00:24:47likely 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,
00:24:57don'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,
00:25:05if you'd ask for more,
00:25:06I probably would have given it to you.
00:25:07I'll make sure.
00:25:23Hey, Alice,
00:25:24it's fine.
00:25:25You're fine.
00:25:339-1-1 looks for your emergency.
00:25:399-1-1 looks for your emergency.
00:25:41It's my dad.
00:25:42He needs help.
00:25:43He just had a stroke.
00:25:44Okay, miss.
00:25:45Hurricane's constant traffic shut down.
00:25:47Get to you as soon as we can.
00:25:48Please, he's not well.
00:25:50I understand.
00:25:51Can you confirm your address?
00:25:54Daddy, yes, I'm right here.
00:25:56Hi.
00:25:58My daughter.
00:26:00Please, stay with me, dad.
00:26:01Please.
00:26:05No.
00:26:08Please, wake up.
00:26:13Dad, please.
00:26:15Please don't leave me.
00:26:18Please.
00:26:46Dad, please.
00:26:48You...
00:26:48What are you doing here?
00:26:54You were crying
00:26:56loudly
00:26:58Kind of hard to ignore
00:27:01Sorry for the night
00:27:04Wait, no snarky come back not tonight. I'm too tired if you're here. Are you knock yourself out?
00:27:13You were calling for your dad, right?
00:27:15A hurricane hit New York
00:27:19Power went down traffic froze
00:27:22Dad had a stroke
00:27:24But he couldn't get help in time
00:27:28I sat there with a candle while he laid there
00:27:35Peaceful
00:27:36But he was asleep
00:27:39But he wasn't
00:27:44So that's why you and your mum moved here
00:27:47This used to be our hometown
00:27:50After dad left
00:27:53We had nowhere else to go
00:27:59What are you doing?
00:28:04Come on
00:28:21Wait, I thought the power was out
00:28:23It is
00:28:24We have our own generator
00:28:26Wow
00:28:27Rich people houses her
00:28:29Just for tonight
00:28:31I'll allow it
00:28:33Allow what?
00:28:35You can call this place your house
00:28:36So enjoy it
00:28:37Stephen King's first edition
00:28:39Alan Gisberg's handwritten letters
00:28:41Jane Austen's notes
00:28:43It's all yours
00:28:44All yours
00:28:47This
00:28:49Is your home
00:28:51Alice Keaton
00:28:57Careful
00:28:58Almost sounded sweet
00:29:00Don't push it
00:29:02Don't push it
00:29:02Okay then
00:29:05I have
00:29:07One request
00:29:11What is it?
00:29:19Are you ever going to make a move?
00:29:21Wait
00:29:21Give me a second
00:29:22I'm thinking
00:29:24You had one wish
00:29:25Anything in the world
00:29:27And in the middle of a thunderstorm
00:29:29Inside a literal mansion
00:29:31You chose chess
00:29:34Yeah
00:29:34Got a problem?
00:29:36It's just so cool
00:29:37Like spies
00:29:39Or genius villains
00:29:40In movies
00:29:40It's literally a board game
00:29:42Says the guy who owns a custom set
00:29:45Wait
00:29:46Does the knight go diagonally?
00:29:48For the tenth time
00:29:49It moves in an L shape
00:29:52One
00:29:52Two
00:29:54Then turn
00:29:56There
00:29:58Happy?
00:29:58Ecstatic
00:30:01You know
00:30:02That's suicide
00:30:03Or a brilliant long term sacrifice
00:30:05You are playing checkers at a chess board
00:30:07Still beating you in sarcasm
00:30:09You literally haven't won any past arguments
00:30:11Golding disagrees
00:30:12It's going to be a long night
00:30:14Oh my
00:30:15No
00:30:16Why?
00:30:16What's wrong with that?
00:30:17You can't do that
00:30:18I don't know
00:30:19I don't know
00:30:19Can I do that
00:30:19I don't know
00:30:19I don't know
00:30:20I don't know
00:30:20I don't know
00:30:21I don't know
00:30:21You had to shop a trip
00:30:23And about it all wrong
00:30:24Time to pull you in close
00:30:26As we're locked on your phone
00:30:28All yourself work
00:30:29Cause I'm moving on
00:30:31Oh yeah
00:30:33Showing up at my door
00:30:36Holding your heart
00:30:38There inside your hands
00:30:40Maybe
00:30:41He's not so awful after all
00:30:50Um
00:30:51Who are you?
00:30:57What are you doing here?
00:30:58Well your parents said you were still at home
00:31:00Thank god you skipped that boring grand tour
00:31:03Who needs Italy and France again, right?
00:31:06When did you get back?
00:31:07Last night
00:31:08From Zurich
00:31:09You didn't answer my messages
00:31:12I missed you
00:31:13Anyway
00:31:14Thought I'd come surprise you
00:31:16Apparently
00:31:17I'm transferring to Ashford
00:31:19Your parents were so thrilled
00:31:21They didn't tell me about this
00:31:22I wanted to deliver the happy news myself
00:31:24They said it'd be lovely for us to reconnect
00:31:27You know
00:31:28Considering the engagement
00:31:30And all
00:31:32Engagement
00:31:33Oh
00:31:34Did no one tell you?
00:31:36He's promised
00:31:37Old money stuff
00:31:39Very retro
00:31:40I didn't agree to that
00:31:41You didn't have to
00:31:42It's never up to us
00:31:45Where did you find this little
00:31:47Toy
00:31:48Serena
00:31:48I didn't hear you you know
00:31:49Oh
00:31:50An American
00:31:52How
00:31:53Refreshing
00:31:57Goodbye
00:31:59Wait
00:32:03Where are you going?
00:32:17You still owe me breakfast
00:32:19You only paid for dinner
00:32:21I had homework
00:32:22Goodbye
00:32:26Your little toy has quite the temper
00:32:28Serena
00:32:28Can you please just stop?
00:32:30What?
00:32:31Teasing the help?
00:32:38That's her
00:32:39That's the one from Kenwood's house
00:32:41Was she like
00:32:42The maid or something?
00:32:59Oh my god
00:33:00What's wrong with people?
00:33:02They're saying you live with Charles
00:33:03Oh and Serena
00:33:05What about her?
00:33:06Apparently she told everyone you were caught sneaking into his room
00:33:10Of course she did
00:33:11Of course she did
00:33:24Careful Alice
00:33:25You're starting to look desperate
00:33:41Come to the music room
00:33:43Urgent
00:33:44I just remembered
00:33:45I need to check something
00:33:46You guys go ahead
00:33:47Yeah
00:33:48Okay
00:33:54Help!
00:33:55Is someone there?
00:33:57Seriously!
00:33:58This is getting old!
00:34:11Wait
00:34:13Music room
00:34:14What?
00:34:16James?
00:34:17Is anybody in here earlier?
00:34:19Just Miss Serena
00:34:20Said she was waiting for you
00:34:23Sir?
00:34:25Sir it's raining
00:34:37Come on Alice
00:34:38You're fine
00:34:40You're not that girl again
00:34:48Wait can you remind me one more time?
00:34:51Okay
00:34:52Rooks move in straight lines
00:34:54Yeah
00:34:54Bishops move diagonally
00:34:57And knights
00:34:58The knights the weird one
00:35:04Rooks
00:35:05Straight lines
00:35:07Bishops
00:35:09Diagonally
00:35:11Hello?
00:35:31The text
00:35:32Are you okay?
00:35:35Are you hurt?
00:35:36I'm okay
00:35:37I saw the text and I thought
00:35:40I didn't see the message
00:35:42Serena took my phone
00:35:43I didn't know
00:35:44I'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
00:35:53Don't tell me
00:35:55What I have to do
00:35:56Give me hope
00:35:58That feels like hope
00:36:19That wasn't a mistake
00:36:20If that's what you're about to say
00:36:23I
00:36:24Wasn't going to
00:36:37You're really bad at this
00:36:39You know
00:36:40What?
00:36:41Kissing?
00:36:41Hiding feelings
00:37:04Dump those Ewok pyjamas
00:37:06Oh you wish
00:37:09Seriously
00:37:11It's a cock block
00:37:12You kissed me
00:37:15That's basically
00:37:17Consent to everything
00:37:23Dangerous words Keaton
00:37:25I might hold you to that
00:37:36You'll be working in pairs
00:37:38On your comparative essays
00:37:39The list is on the board
00:37:43One, two, three, four
00:37:45Are you okay?
00:37:49Fly me to outer space
00:37:53That's where I'll see your face
00:37:57And have you with me
00:38:03It may seem dark
00:38:07But you always like my spark
00:38:11In my heart
00:38:16Since the start
00:38:19You're welcome
00:38:23They're either enemies
00:38:24Or secretly married
00:38:26Honestly
00:38:27Both
00:38:30I was sure
00:38:32I'd never find someone
00:38:33To make my head spin around
00:38:35No one's ever gonna be
00:38:36The thing I need
00:38:37They all just let me down
00:38:39But baby
00:38:40You saved me
00:38:42Time been new
00:38:45Everything's so different now
00:38:49So 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
00:39:06Check
00:39:12You're cheating
00:39:13I'm winning
00:39:14There's a difference
00:39:16You are very distracting
00:39:18And you like it
00:39:30Charles
00:39:31We need to talk
00:39:40I expected poor judgement
00:39:42But this in my house
00:39:44It isn't what it looks like
00:39:46No
00:39:47Kissing a servant's daughter
00:39:49In the family library
00:39:51Enlighten me then, Charles
00:39:52We came back tonight
00:39:53After speaking with Serena
00:39:55Imagine our surprise
00:39:57Walking in on
00:39:58This
00:39:59She isn't just
00:40:00You have no right
00:40:02To barge in
00:40:03On my property
00:40:07I care about her
00:40:08I'm not ashamed
00:40:10That's enough
00:40:14Why do you care?
00:40:15We're protecting our son's future
00:40:17And our name
00:40:19You think this protects me?
00:40:21We think
00:40:22She does not belong
00:40:24In 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
00:40:38Then
00:40:40Are you sure
00:40:42She's ready?
00:40:48I'm asking you
00:40:50Do you think she's ready
00:40:51To lose everything
00:40:53Regardless of how little
00:40:54That is
00:40:55Just to be with you?
00:40:56What are you talking about?
00:40:58You left us no choice, son
00:40:59You 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
00:41:11Were to violate our behavioural code
00:41:14In a public setting
00:41:15With photographic evidence
00:41:17Would that warrant a review?
00:41:20Yes, sir
00:41:23So
00:41:25Answer me again
00:41:27Do you think she's ready
00:41:28To lose everything
00:41:29Just to be with you?
00:41:41Charles
00:41:42What 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
00:41:54She'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
00:42:02Stop, stop
00:42:02You don't get it
00:42:05If I don't walk away from this
00:42:06They'll cut me off
00:42:07Okay?
00:42:09No card
00:42:10No trust
00:42:11No support
00:42:13Nothing
00:42:13Then
00:42:15Then we'll figure it out
00:42:16We don't need all that
00:42:18We can
00:42:19Do you really think
00:42:20I'm going to live like that?
00:42:24So that's what this was
00:42:26Just fun
00:42:27Until it got inconvenient
00:42:30What did they promise you?
00:42:34Nothing
00:42:38They just reminded me
00:42:39Of what's
00:42:40Real
00:42:44Charles
00:42:44I'm not stupid
00:42:46You don't just turn into a cold stranger
00:42:48Because 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?
00:43:00You think you know me
00:43:02Or what I have
00:43:04You don't
00:43:05Alice
00:43:06You're still lying
00:43:08I'm not
00:43:08Alice
00:43:09Look around you
00:43:10This mansion
00:43:12You thought was a museum
00:43:13It's my
00:43:15House
00:43:16My world
00:43:17I was bored into this
00:43:19I am not choosing
00:43:20Between this
00:43:24And something I picked up
00:43:26For a moment
00:43:27Of fun
00:43:30Don't do this Charles
00:43:31You don't mean it
00:43:33It was fun
00:43:34But you
00:43:37You 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
00:43:51Don't end up with girls like me
00:43:55You play with them
00:43:56Then you throw them away
00:43:59Go to sleep Alice
00:44:11This fall is a little more
00:44:14Than I expected
00:44:17In so deep I can barely see myself
00:44:24Yeah around me feels so heavy
00:44:30But I find this place
00:44:32To test myself
00:44:42Oops
00:44:59Oh sorry
00:45:01Didn't see that
00:45:02Then again
00:45:03Nobody does
00:45:04Move please
00:45:06Try begging
00:45:14You know what
00:45:15Keep it
00:45:20Poor thing
00:45:22So dramatic
00:45:24Don't
00:45:25Excuse me
00:45:27I warned you
00:45:28Walk away Serena
00:45:50Last week's group assignments
00:45:52Were mostly forgettable
00:45:54But one pair surprised me
00:45:56In a good way
00:45:57Charles Kenwood
00:45:59And Alice Keaton
00:46:00Would you mind giving us
00:46:02Her short summary
00:46:03She loves the sound
00:46:04Of her own voice
00:46:05Better have it
00:46:14Our essay explored
00:46:16What happens
00:46:16When two fundamentally
00:46:18Different voices meet
00:46:19Like logic and chaos
00:46:21Or silence and noise
00:46:23Different worlds
00:46:25Different rules
00:46:28At first glance
00:46:29Yes they 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
00:46:37Some stories aren't about staying
00:46:40And yes there is no such thing as a happy ending
00:46:52And yes there 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
00:47:05Dramatic as always
00:47:05Alright
00:47:06Thank you Alice
00:47:07That was
00:47:08Laid
00:47:11Are you okay?
00:47:12A reminder
00:47:12That good literature
00:47:14Always 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
00:47:23We'd like to offer you a long term publishing contract
00:47:26Name your price
00:47:27We'll make it work
00:47:28Sorry what?
00:47:33That's
00:47:33Kind of
00:47:34Insane
00:47:35Who's behind this?
00:47:37Your sponsor wishes to remain anonymous
00:47:39Can
00:47:41Can I meet them?
00:47:44I want to
00:47:45Please
00:47:46Or at least tell me a name
00:47:51Sorry
00:47:52They wish to stay in office
00:47:53So they're only interested in whether
00:47:55Another person
00:47:55I'd really like to meet them
00:47:57I'm sorry
00:47:57Miss Keaton
00:47:58Name was very sweet
00:47:59I think it's the most jealous one we've ever given in this year
00:48:01I see
00:48:03Congratulations again
00:48:09You got the interview
00:48:10It's just an interview
00:48:11I haven't gotten in yet
00:48:12Still
00:48:13Alice Keaton at Oxford
00:48:15That's iconic
00:48:16For your love
00:48:18I'll be
00:48:19Cold
00:48:20But I'm one of them
00:48:24You okay?
00:48:27Yeah
00:48:27I'm so excited
00:48:28I'm so excited
00:48:42It's done Mr. Kenwood
00:48:43Miss 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, it's better if I stay out of her life
00:48:56I will be there for you, babe
00:49:01I'll be there in your darkest days
00:49:05Congratulations, Alice Keaton
00:49:08Go live the life you were always meant to
00:49:15Your engagement announcement should align perfectly with the Foundation Gala
00:49:20And the Browns already offered to host the London reception
00:49:25It's all coming together beautifully
00:49:31I've lost my appetite
00:49:36I'll go check on him
00:49:42What's your problem, Charles?
00:49:48Disengagement
00:49:49It's not happening
00:49:50It's not up to you
00:49:51You know that
00:49:52Serena, we're not doing this
00:49:55You've changed
00:49:59Or maybe I finally just stopped pretending
00:50:21I'll be there in a minute
00:50:28TALS!
00:50:31You're the sponsor.
00:50:32You've been funding Alice Keaton this whole time.
00:50:37So?
00:50:38You lied to everyone, including her.
00:50:41I protected her.
00:50:45You loved her.
00:50:47Still do.
00:50:49Let it go, Serena.
00:50:52There's no point.
00:51:02I need a favour.
00:51:04Find out when the Oxford interview is.
00:51:07And make sure Alice Keaton won't show up.
00:51:14Anything?
00:51:15No?
00:51:16She's not answering.
00:51:18The interview's almost over.
00:51:20Well, she won't just not show up.
00:51:22Something's wrong.
00:51:24Where's Alice?
00:51:26When was the last time you heard from her?
00:51:28Last night.
00:51:29She said she was prepping all evening.
00:51:34James, track someone for me.
00:51:38Wait, where are you going?
00:51:47Chill, okay?
00:51:48We won't hurt you.
00:51:50Yeah, we're just supposed to keep you away from the interview.
00:51:53That's it.
00:52:00Shit!
00:52:02Shit!
00:52:02Come back!
00:52:10Come back!
00:52:41Hey!
00:52:41Hey!
00:52:41Hey!
00:52:42Hey!
00:52:42Alice!
00:52:42Alice!
00:52:43Alice!
00:52:44Stay with me.
00:52:45Stay with me.
00:52:45Stay with me, Alice.
00:52:46Alice!
00:52:53You're awake?
00:52:55Where...
00:52:56Where am I?
00:52:57A local clinic.
00:52:58Passer-by brought you in.
00:53:01Passer-by?
00:53:02He found you on the side of the road. He had to leave. He didn't leave a name.
00:53:08Oh.
00:53:10The interview! What time is it?
00:53:12Easy. It's okay. Someone already contacted the university.
00:53:16Anne sent in your writing samples. They've rescheduled your interview for tomorrow.
00:53:20Wait, what? Who?
00:53:21No idea, but it's all taken care of.
00:53:27What did you say?
00:53:29Nothing. I just... had a dream.
00:53:43I got him!
00:53:48Oh, I knew it!
00:53:50Too bad Charles isn't here to watch you crush it.
00:53:53He's not here.
00:53:55Oh, you didn't know?
00:53:58Know what?
00:53:59He left.
00:54:01A few days ago, yeah, everyone doesn't really know where he went.
00:54:04Honestly, Ashra's been quieter without him. It's probably for the best.
00:54:08Come on.
00:54:14Alice?
00:54:18The summer I met Charles Kenward was loud.
00:54:22Chaotic.
00:54:24Unexpected.
00:54:27And with his absence...
00:54:29Come on!
00:54:30It ended quietly.
00:54:34Like summers always do.
00:54:49And joining us today, the decade's most unexpected literary phenomenon, Alice Keaton.
00:54:55Thank you for having me.
00:54:56Now, your words moved millions.
00:54:59They say your stories feel real, especially 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 has been just writing and working, not even a single
00:55:17date.
00:55:17Let me guess a bird named Sherry.
00:55:19She caught me.
00:55:20Still no comment.
00:55:22Alright, alright.
00:55:23No matter what you say, you write love like someone who's lived it.
00:55:29If you're so real.
00:55:30Because once, I did.
00:55:31With someone who felt like chaos and clarity.
00:55:35And 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. The numbers just came in. You broke your own record.
00:55:58That's... incredible.
00:56:00We're thinking celebration? Press? Photos? Maybe tonight?
00:56:04Actually, there's something I'd rather do.
00:56:08I'd like to meet with the person who believed in me first.
00:56:12My sponsor.
00:56:14You're sure?
00:56:15Yeah. Just once.
00:56:17Tonight. 7pm.
00:56:29Good evening.
00:56:34Good evening.
00:56:37May I sit?
00:56:42Good evening.
00:56:43Hey Mr. Noncelone.
00:56:47Hi.
00:56:49Hi.
00:56:52You look well.
00:56:56And you look like you just stepped out of a GQ cover
00:56:59You always did
00:57:02You were expecting someone else
00:57:04I 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
00:57:21Oh, thank you
00:57:24I didn't know you were 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
00:57:34No, no, you earned everything
00:57:41Every word
00:57:42Every 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
00:58:11There was one email
00:58:13You said something
00:58:14Felt familiar
00:58:16Really?
00:58:17Kind of had that
00:58:18Rich asshole with a conscience energy
00:58:20Very on brand
00:58:23I should have anonymized my grammar
00:58:24Too late
00:58:25Your semicolon usage gave you away
00:58:28Still the only girl I know
00:58:30Who flirts through punctuation
00:58:31Still the only guy I know
00:58:33Who uses wiles unironically
00:58:37You've changed
00:58:39But
00:58:41Not really
00:58:43You haven't changed
00:58:46But maybe you've grown into who you really were
00:58:51Anyway
00:58:52I wanted to say
00:58:54Thank you
00:58:56And
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
00:59:31If 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
00:59:48No
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
01:00:12So you just disappeared
01:00:14Without a word
01:00:18If you had the chance to see the world
01:00:20Without 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
01:00:33But 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 didn't think I was the smart choice
01:00:51You weren't
01:00:54But 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
01:01:28I'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
01:01:34Who you haven't seen in four years
01:01:36To come into your hotel
01:01:38At approximately 11pm
01:01:41You were right
01:01:43You never were that smart
01:01:45You don't have to come
01:01:46Don't tell me what I have to do
01:02:03Stop quoting yourself
01:02:04I recycle
01:02:05It saves energy
01:02:07This feels wildly irresponsible
01:02:10You sound like a disclaimer
01:02:11You'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 it going to?
01:02:30I forgot all over 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
01:02:46Or secretly married
01:02:47And I told you
01:02:47They're both
01:03:15I vow to always tell you the truth
01:03:17I vow to always tell you the truth
01:03:18Except for when you ask how your cooking was, then I lie. Respectfully.
01:03:25I vow to keep choosing you. Loudly. Quietly. Always. Even when you forget to do the laundry.
01:03:37Is he actually good at this?
01:03:39I mean, he did beat over at sarcasm.
01:03:45I vow to argue with you at least twice a week, especially over Shakespeare.
01:03:50I vow to write you into every story, even when I say I didn't. You will always be part of
01:03:56my life.
01:03:58If she quotes Austin in this toast, I'm out.
01:04:01No, you're not. You're gonna cry harder.
01:04:25I can't believe you picked Paris. Such a cliché honeymoon destination.
01:04:31Guard your phone.
01:04:33Relax. Just 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, no, no, no. That is not an invitation to-
01:04:55Do not take off these clothes!
01:04:57Overruled. You look much better without them.
01:05:05To the ones who loved in silence, in chaos, in chapters, you will find your way home.
01:05:15Sometimes I wanna be on my own, but I don't wanna die alone.
01:05:21God.
01:05:21Sorry.
01:05:25I mean, Feet.
01:05:30Schuljurgls.
01:05:32Don't touch me.
01:05:33Oopsie.
01:05:35logo.
01:05:38Okay.
01:05:40Tisit.
01:05:41Oh, look.
01:05:46It's up to us to make sure that we can gain what's been passed through these places.
01:05:51books. Help us develop, learn, and grow.
