Short filmTranscript
00:01Decoder, I waited on you like a princess, but you had so many secrets.
00:07Oh, Jonathan.
00:09I was wrong. You chose the throne over your first love.
00:12You rewrote protocol for her.
00:14Does she know you'll have to give up the throne?
00:16Father, she loves me for who I am.
00:18Hope she's worth it.
00:21Adrian! What is wrong with you?
00:24Adrian, at last.
00:26Heavy is the head that wears the crown,
00:28a lesson you will now learn.
00:30Will you restore the people's faith?
00:35Decoder, do you love me?
00:40Happy anniversary, Decoder.
00:44Five years of loving you.
00:46Three years of calling you my wife.
00:50I waited on you like a princess.
00:58Honey.
01:01I made sure you ate right.
01:04I helped stabilize your blood sugar.
01:07But that's okay.
01:09Jonathan can do that now.
01:11I always dreamed of having children with you.
01:16But you never wanted children with me.
01:20Today, our special day,
01:22I'll finally give you what you've always wanted.
01:26Read them.
01:29Even after I turn our paths to smoke,
01:31I'm still watching the door for you.
01:34Muscle memory, I suppose.
01:35But to rewire my heart,
01:37that might take a lifetime.
01:40Dakota, where have you been?
01:41You missed our anniversary.
01:45Yeah, Johnny, I just got home.
01:49Thanks for your jacket.
01:51So, we're still on for Switzerland?
01:53Just us two?
01:54I miss you.
01:55Okay.
01:57I've dreamed of your filthy little tongue playing with my...
02:03What the hell is wrong with you?
02:04Pick that up.
02:07Pick that up.
02:08Since when do you wear my cousin's clothes?
02:09Oh, for Christ's sake.
02:11We were at his castle.
02:12I spilled wine, I showered, and I took this.
02:14What is that?
02:14It's cashmere.
02:16Happy?
02:17You're drinking this late at his castle?
02:19That's not even...
02:20Are you jealous?
02:22God, Adrian.
02:23His place is better than this dump.
02:25Dinner's on the table.
02:26Hot baths upstairs.
02:28Chill, Daddy.
02:30I was having fun, okay?
02:34Maybe you could lecture me if you were king.
02:37But you're just a stay-at-home husband.
02:40Useless.
02:41Unlike Jonathan.
02:46Dakota.
02:49If I hadn't agreed to marry you five years ago, I wouldn't have given up my right to the throne.
02:53I'd probably be king by now.
02:55Ok, coffee and coffee?
03:01Oh, John.
03:02Morning, Jonathan.
03:05She's speaking a language I never learned.
03:08Soon, both of us will be free.
03:12Oh, you're right.
03:13Denmark is better.
03:14Denmark.
03:15Our honeymoon.
03:17She always wanted to go there with someone else.

17:59You've passed your initial training with excellence. Next week, you'll begin the required year of silence before becoming king.
18:09I accept, Father. You still have a few days left. Since it's Christmas, spend them with your family.
18:18What? 30 missed calls from Dakota?
18:22Adrian, where the fuck have you been? Dakota's been calling non-stop. She's losing her mind.
18:28Why is Dakota looking for me?
18:34What's wrong, Dakota?
18:35My God, Adrian, you're finally home. You have no idea what I've been through. I've had three maids come in
18:41to cook for me and they're completely useless.
18:44And don't even get me started on the chefs. They don't understand my dietary restrictions.
18:49That's all it was? She couldn't find someone to replace me?
18:53Where have you been?
18:56I've been working, Dakota.
18:59Work?
19:00What do you mean?
19:02You need to stay home and take care of me, right?
19:06Dakota, if you're asking me to abandon my dream of becoming king and serve you personally, I won't make that
19:12mistake again.
19:14Adrian, if this is about what happened between me and Jonathan, that was just a one-time thing, okay?
19:20You and Jonathan can do whatever you want. I don't care anymore.
19:25Seriously? He doesn't even live here anymore. Can you get over it? You know what?
19:35What's this?
19:38I know you're mad about Jonathan, so I got you this. To hopefully patch things up.
19:48Merry Christmas, my love.
19:55A yacht?
19:56Yeah! You've always said you want to sail around the world.
19:59Dakota, I can't accept this.
20:00Why?
20:02I think you should move back in with Dakota.
20:05Think how lonely she will be this Christmas without anyone to celebrate with.
20:10Oh my god!
20:11Jonathan, weren't you just talking about how much you love those supreme yachts?
20:16It looks like Deco bought you one for Christmas!
20:19Dakota, you really bought me a yacht?
20:25Rosella, are we sure this isn't for Adrian?
20:28What? Are you joking?
20:30They've been together for like five years, and she's never even bothered to fill his Christmas stocking?
20:35Right, Dakota?
20:38The first Christmas gift you ever bought for me.
20:41But it's five years too late.
20:43That's right, Rosella. I think Dakota bought this for Jonathan.
20:49There you go, bro.
20:52Wow, Dakota. This is the best Christmas ever. Thank you.
20:55Thanks for being so cool about this man.
20:59I already know what we can name it.
21:02Diamond stars.
21:03Like the restaurant from our first date.
21:06Dakota, after Christmas, I'll be out of your world for good.
21:15Hey, tonight's my family's annual Christmas banquet.
21:18I got this suit made just for you.
21:20Dakota, it's a DeLulu banquet. It's your family, not mine.
21:24What are you talking about? You're my husband.
21:27And my mom's expecting you.
21:30I should give Mrs. DeLulu a proper goodbye.
21:54Wow. Dakota must really love you to buy you something like that.
22:00Dakota loves Jonathan more than any woman has ever loved any man.
22:09Don't listen to them, bro.
22:11We were just saying how marriage and love don't always go together.
22:14Talk about whatever you want.
22:16Pretend I'm not here.
22:20Jonathan, Dakota loves you, not me.
22:23You should be with her.
22:26Oh, look at you, Adrian.
22:28Sulking like a child.
22:30Trying to get sympathy?
22:31No.
22:33Dakota and I have separated.
22:34Like you would leave her.
22:37I still can't believe she married a royal reject.
22:40Especially when Jonathan beats you in every category.
22:43Looks, brain, money, and God, can you ride a horse?
22:49Rizella, shut up.
22:51It's Christmas.
22:52I was with Dakota the day Jonathan dumped her.
22:54She was crushed.
22:56That was a long time ago.
22:58It doesn't matter now.
22:59Dakota, I'm helping you.
23:01Jonathan's back.
23:02Smile.
23:04Johnny, ask her out.
23:05Come on, Dakota.
23:06Let's grab a drink.
23:07Great.
23:13To us.
23:18Adrian.
23:20Mrs. DeLulu.
23:22Merry Christmas.
23:26So, Adrian, are you still planning to end things with Dakota?
23:30Yes.
23:31I think it's time to start focusing on the future.
23:34You know, I don't blame you, Adrian.
23:36I am sorry again for asking you to marry her.
23:41You assisted in shielding Sleighborne from the media scandal.
23:45I believe it was a fair exchange.
23:47And I owe you my thanks.
23:49Now, Adrian, you gave five years of your life
23:51to Dakota and went above and beyond to be a good husband.
23:55I thought over time she would come to love you
23:58as much as you loved her.
23:59Whatever happens,
24:01you'll always be my son,
24:03forever.
24:04You'll be right back.
24:04Thirty-
24:10Bye.
24:15Bye.
24:17Bye.
24:19Bye.
24:19Bye.
