00:00:00Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug!
00:00:01Wow, she's toast.
00:00:03How much did this horses make from us?
00:00:05Five grand?
00:00:06Whatever.
00:00:06Just keep her puke off my custom loafers.
00:00:09I'm out.
00:00:12You don't get to tap out.
00:00:14You.
00:00:15You don't stop until my money stops.
00:00:17You hear me?
00:00:18You are here to please me.
00:00:24Dude, she's gonna end up in the hospital.
00:00:26She's fine.
00:00:28Ray, I have warned you about pulling the shit again in my club.
00:00:33Hey, Lena. Are you okay?
00:00:37I didn't know it then, but this woman was about to turn my world upside down.
00:00:45Ryan Carter, heir to the Carter Empire.
00:00:48I want you to shoot your shot with him.
00:00:52Shoot my shot? Why?
00:00:54I know that the bank is foreclosing on your mom's house next week.
00:00:59That's the real reason you're at my club.
00:01:01You keep this up and you'll drink yourself to death and still lose the house.
00:01:07I'm offering you a lifeline.
00:01:11Ryan's in town for the next seven days.
00:01:13Get pregnant with his child and the money's yours.
00:01:18Five million dollars?
00:01:20With this I could easily buy my mom's house back, but...
00:01:23Get pregnant with his child?
00:01:25That's an awfully specific request.
00:01:28Who is he to you?
00:01:30My fiance.
00:01:32I'll teach you everything about Ryan.
00:01:35His tastes.
00:01:36His habits.
00:01:37His pleasures.
00:01:38Everything you need to know to get him in seven days.
00:01:43Mr. Carter!
00:01:44Mr. Carter!
00:01:45Welcome to our city.
00:01:47Your car is right outside for you.
00:01:49Let's go ahead and get my luggage and uh...
00:01:51Who's the flowers?
00:01:53Wow.
00:01:54I have...
00:01:54Thanks.
00:01:55And right away.
00:01:56Right away.
00:01:59Yeah, what's up?
00:02:00Police, are you sure about this?
00:02:02Lena, he won't see it coming.
00:02:04Just remember, do everything I'm taught you.
00:02:06And you'll be completely obsessed with me.
00:02:10Sure.
00:02:11Good luck.
00:02:19Okay.
00:02:25Here, there's nothing.
00:02:39Oh!
00:02:40Oh my god, I'm so sorry.
00:02:42I'm so sorry.
00:02:43It's fine.
00:02:43Let me help you.
00:02:43It's fine, really.
00:02:44No, really, I ruined your shirt.
00:02:45Let me make it up.
00:02:46It's fine.
00:02:49Tell you what.
00:02:50How about I spend the night ironing the shirt for you?
00:02:52Yeah.
00:02:52I'm sure it'll feel unforgetably warm.
00:02:58Wrong.
00:02:59Are you offering what I think you're offering?
00:03:02Depends.
00:03:03Do you like the offer?
00:03:05Mr. Cotter, is everything okay?
00:03:08Yeah, it's fine.
00:03:09We're just having a lovely chat.
00:03:10A lovely chat.
00:03:11You're not allowed to do what you're doing.
00:03:13It's fine.
00:03:14It's fine.
00:03:15Your name was?
00:03:16Lena.
00:03:17Lena Morgan.
00:03:18Well, Miss Morgan, I appreciate your offer, but sadly I'm busy tonight.
00:03:24Back off!
00:03:25You heard the bus.
00:03:26Back off.
00:03:26No, not now.
00:03:27I can't lose this.
00:03:28Not my mother's house.
00:03:30Hey, wait!
00:03:32Listen, you're really pretty, but I usually go for women with a little bit more class.
00:03:38Well, if you like class, then how about a girl who dances?
00:03:48Alright.
00:03:49What kind of dance?
00:03:59Ryan Carter?
00:04:01You will fall.
00:04:26feel like thinking.
00:04:32We'll quit with a Lanternfong song together.
00:04:33Nice to meet you.
00:04:40And have a few performances.
00:04:40Mom, did she see?
00:04:42I saw every single step.
00:04:45My beautiful, little swan.
00:04:48If I dance...
00:04:50Like the best in the world, will daddy come home?
00:04:55Lina, you dance for yourself, not for anybody else.
00:05:00You promise me, okay?
00:05:03You are a beautiful swan.
00:05:07You live your life with grace and dignity.
00:05:13Always.
00:05:15Forgive me, Mom. I've let you down.
00:05:26Still busy tonight, Mr. Carter?
00:05:28Take Ms. Morgan and I to the hotel.
00:05:41Mr. Carter!
00:05:51So what's this unforgettable experience you were talking about?
00:05:56Well, you're a smart guy, Mr. Carter.
00:05:59You tell me.
00:06:04You tell me.
00:06:07How much is it gonna cost me?
00:06:09Art's very expensive.
00:06:12Go ahead.
00:06:13Swipe your card.
00:06:18This card has a hundred grand on it.
00:06:22Consider it my ticket in.
00:06:26It's very generous of you, Mr. Carter.
00:06:30I'll enjoy the show.
00:06:33No.
00:06:35No kissing.
00:06:37That's where I draw my line.
00:06:58Can we skip that part?
00:07:00No.
00:07:01No.
00:07:02That's where I draw my line.
00:07:21What a night.
00:07:26Ryan's in town for the next seven days.
00:07:28Get pregnant with his child.
00:07:30And the money's yours.
00:07:32Shit, we'll have to go again.
00:07:55Hey, morning.
00:07:58You're quite the early riser.
00:08:00You can see that.
00:08:02What are you doing?
00:08:04Just wondering.
00:08:07These are a lot heavier than others.
00:08:12So what do you plan to spend it on? Designer clothes? A new car?
00:08:20No, those are great, but actually I'm gonna save it all.
00:08:24Buy some booze and drugs, though. Stay on theme.
00:08:28I'm kidding.
00:08:29So how much do you need?
00:08:32What?
00:08:33Well, you said you were saving. How much do you need?
00:08:36Five million.
00:08:38And how much do you have saved?
00:08:40Hundred grand.
00:08:48So, is it fine if I stay another night?
00:08:57That's sweet, but last night was kind of a one-off for me.
00:09:02I don't usually pay for-
00:09:03Well, I could do it free of charge.
00:09:10I'll see myself out, Mr. Carter. Thanks again.
00:09:17Way to go, Lena. Just humiliated yourself.
00:09:21I'm busy. What's up?
00:09:23Mr. Carter, about Mr. Gray's birthday dinner tomorrow. They requested for every guest to have a date. Would you like
00:09:29me to invite Miss Elise?
00:09:31No. I'll be attending with someone else.
00:09:36Hey, wait.
00:09:39You know, that offer of yours wasn't half bad.
00:09:42Oh, yeah?
00:09:46Well...
00:09:46Is it really that unforgettable?
00:09:48No.
00:09:50Actually...
00:09:51I need your services for something else tonight.
00:09:54I need you to be my plus one for a dinner party.
00:09:57Sure.
00:09:58Don't worry about Sammy. Get yourself something nice.
00:10:03What exactly is something nice?
00:10:08Maybe something that won't get us thrown out of a dinner party.
00:10:12Okay. Noted.
00:10:13So this is kind of a full-time gig for you then, right?
00:10:17I'm a hostess at a nightclub.
00:10:18But this is kind of new.
00:10:21I hope that's okay with you.
00:10:22Yeah.
00:10:23No judgment here.
00:10:25Everyone's got reasons for what they do.
00:10:33What?
00:10:36Your eyes are beautiful.
00:10:42What?
00:10:44Yours are too.
00:10:48You sure you don't want to fool around a little before I leave?
00:10:51As much as I'd love that,
00:10:54I don't want to pass out in front of the board.
00:10:56So...
00:10:57I'll see you tonight, Miss Morgan.
00:10:59See you tonight, Mr. Carter.
00:11:05Yes!
00:11:06Yes! Yes!
00:11:17Five million dollars.
00:11:18I'm gonna get my mom's house back.
00:11:25Hey, Elise.
00:11:26I think he's good to be.
00:11:34Morning.
00:11:42Checking out early?
00:11:44About early. Just wanted to do some shopping, you know?
00:11:47Shopping?
00:11:48Yeah.
00:11:50Listen.
00:11:51I will pay you a month's salary.
00:11:55If you spend the night with me.
00:11:57No.
00:11:59God, your hair smells so good.
00:12:02What are you doing?
00:12:02Stop!
00:12:02You might enjoy it!
00:12:04Stay still!
00:12:04Wait, wait, wait, wait!
00:12:07You gotta get off me first.
00:12:08Otherwise, how can you enjoy it?
00:12:10God damn it!
00:12:11You're right!
00:12:12Number four is the employee lounge.
00:12:14Nobody should bother.
00:12:15It's there because...
00:12:17What the fuck?!
00:12:18I said I'd pay you!
00:12:20Nothing personal.
00:12:21I just don't like creeps who force themselves upon me.
00:12:24And besides being a good dancer,
00:12:25I can do a good coach too.
00:12:27What the fuck?!
00:12:32You could regret this!
00:12:34You hairy bitch!
00:12:36Shit, I'm late.
00:12:40You!
00:12:41Take these rags away!
00:12:42And shoot the police to make them!
00:12:44The law!
00:12:45The car!
00:12:47Ah!
00:12:47Ah!
00:12:48Hate it!
00:12:49Hate it!
00:12:50Ah!
00:12:50Burn it with fire!
00:12:51Take it away!
00:12:52Take it away!
00:12:53Ah!
00:12:53My ass!
00:12:55My ass!
00:12:56My ass!
00:12:56It is polluting my visual!
00:12:59Sorry I'm late.
00:13:00But, good news.
00:13:01He wants to see me again tonight.
00:13:02That's a win, right?
00:13:03So, should we start picking out nursery wallpaper?
00:13:06Well, no.
00:13:07Not exactly.
00:13:08But...
00:13:08I figured.
00:13:09Tonight's banquet is going to be very important.
00:13:12We have work to do.
00:13:14What do you mean by work to do?
00:13:17Ah!
00:13:18Ideas!
00:13:20Ideas!
00:13:20A monster in my shop dressed in rags!
00:13:23Rude.
00:13:24First of all, this is my most expensive outfit.
00:13:26And second of all, who is this?
00:13:29This is my friend Cece.
00:13:30He's a celebrity stylist.
00:13:33At least, darling, you forgot.
00:13:35Genius as well.
00:13:36And you are about to Cece.
00:13:38Why this is a crime.
00:13:42Sit!
00:13:42We will fix everything!
00:13:47You go like your life!
00:13:49It pins on it because your job does!
00:13:51We do not want sledge.
00:13:52We need sledge.
00:13:53You, keep going.
00:13:55Gorgeous!
00:13:56It is perfect!
00:13:57You, it hurts!
00:13:59Go out and burn!
00:14:31Go away again.
00:14:33Go away again!
00:14:36Go away again!
00:14:37Go away again!
00:14:39Go away again!
00:14:41What do you see?
00:14:42The ugly duckling into a swan!
00:14:44Ryan, you will fall for her.
00:14:48You have to.
00:14:56You sure about this, Elise?
00:14:58I've never been to anything like this before.
00:15:01Hey, remember.
00:15:03You're doing this for your mother.
00:15:06He's waiting.
00:15:20Am I late?
00:15:22Nope, right on time.
00:15:30Driver, take me to the hospital.
00:15:34You look stunning.
00:15:40This is for you.
00:15:47You maybe want to turn around and make it easier to put on for you?
00:15:51Sure.
00:15:56For a moment, I felt like Cinderella.
00:15:59Wrapped in silk and diamonds.
00:16:01And until the clock strikes, no one will know who I really am.
00:16:05Perfection.
00:16:06Are you sure about this?
00:16:08What if they find out who I really am?
00:16:12Well, I feel like if I'm standing next to you, I'll look more like a king.
00:16:18Shall we, your highness?
00:16:19We shall.
00:16:29Invitation, please.
00:16:31Did you not just see her?
00:16:32That fucking whore is trying to mingle with the elites.
00:16:37Sorry, sir.
00:16:38I must ask you to leave immediately.
00:16:40Take your hands off of me.
00:16:42That girl is a whore.
00:16:45She can get in them.
00:16:46Why can't I?
00:16:49Fuck you.
00:16:52Easy fellows.
00:16:54This gentleman is my guest.
00:17:00Oh my gosh, I can't breathe.
00:17:03What do you mean?
00:17:04You okay?
00:17:04Ryan!
00:17:11Sweetheart, you're making me jealous.
00:17:13Why are you always surrounded by pretty girls?
00:17:16Monica, it's good to see you again.
00:17:18Maybe tonight is finally the night I get to meet Mr. Gray?
00:17:21Straight to business.
00:17:23I almost forgot how cold you are.
00:17:24I'll let you meet my grandfather.
00:17:27I'll be right back.
00:17:28Alright, just one drink.
00:17:29Ryan, don't leave me.
00:17:31I'll just grab a drink.
00:17:33Be right back, okay?
00:17:34Darling, don't worry.
00:17:36I'm not gonna steal your man.
00:17:37Even though it's very tempting.
00:17:42You know, you look really hot in this suit.
00:17:45How come we've never hooked up?
00:17:46Because your boyfriend would kill me.
00:17:48That's the fun part.
00:18:00Shit!
00:18:01How is he here?
00:18:05Looks like someone misplaced his charming date.
00:18:10Miss Lina.
00:18:12You remember me, don't you?
00:18:20No, I don't.
00:18:21But, um...
00:18:22It's nice to meet you.
00:18:24I remember you.
00:18:26How could I forget.
00:18:28You're even prettier when you're sober.
00:18:31So tell me.
00:18:32How much is my perfect big bro hanging for tonight?
00:18:36He's Ryan's brother?
00:18:38See, you've already worked it out.
00:18:42Let's share a drink to celebrate our unexpected reunion.
00:18:46No thanks.
00:18:48I don't want to-
00:18:49I insist.
00:18:52I picked it personally.
00:18:55Domaine Lafleuve-Morochet, 2002.
00:18:59Every drop is rich and complex.
00:19:03It's worth a hundred of your takeout dinners.
00:19:07But you know me.
00:19:08I am a generous tipper.
00:19:10So this glass is my treat.
00:19:14Drink up, bitch.
00:19:21You're the bitch, bitch.
00:19:23You're the bitch, bitch.
00:19:24Say that again.
00:19:25You...
00:19:26are a bitch.
00:19:31You filthy little whore.
00:19:34Oh my god!
00:19:37What are you doing?
00:19:38Get over me!
00:19:42Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce Lena.
00:19:46We go way back, but not because she's one of us.
00:19:49No.
00:19:49Lena is a hostess at a grubby little nightclub.
00:19:53But this isn't a nightclub.
00:19:55So why is she here?
00:19:56She's here because she's a cheap escort who snuck in to sell herself.
00:20:04Hey, don't be mad.
00:20:06I'm a paying customer.
00:20:07What's your rate?
00:20:09Is it 50?
00:20:10Is it 100?
00:20:11Whatever my perfect brother is paying you, I'll double it!
00:20:23Just like Cinderella, the prince arrived when she was in need of help.
00:20:28I'm sorry.
00:20:29That was longer than one minute.
00:20:42I'm sorry, Ryan, I ruined your night.
00:20:44No, you didn't.
00:20:45Let's go.
00:20:46I can't believe you brought a goddamn whore, Ryan.
00:20:48What about Elise, huh?
00:20:49Why isn't your fiancé here?
00:20:51Do not mention Elise to me.
00:20:53And never humiliate a woman in front of me again.
00:20:57Not now.
00:20:58Not ever.
00:20:59Are you fucking kidding me?
00:21:00You can slap a dress on a pigeon, but it doesn't make her a swan.
00:21:03She's a goddamn whore.
00:21:06What did I just say?
00:21:07What did I say?
00:21:08Yeah.
00:21:09Show everyone how you disgrace our family over a fucking hooker.
00:21:12Ryan, stop.
00:21:14Stop.
00:21:14Let's just go.
00:21:15Come on, he's not worth it.
00:21:18What's going on here?
00:21:22I ordered cake for my birthday, not a boxing match.
00:21:29And you, my dear, I assume you're the reason Ryan darted away during our conversation earlier?
00:21:35Happy birthday, Mr. Gray, and Lena Morgan.
00:21:39To cause this much chaos between the two Carter brothers, you must be quite extraordinary.
00:21:44What do you do, Ms. Morgan?
00:21:47What doesn't she do?
00:21:53Well, actually, Mr. Gray...
00:21:55She's a dancer, Mr. Gray.
00:22:00Well then, if that's true, Ms. Lena, would you honor us with a dance?
00:22:07Well then, if that's true, Ms. Lena, would you honor us with a dance?
00:22:12Monica.
00:22:14Um, I...
00:22:17Oh, you dug yourself an even deeper hole, big bro.
00:22:20If she really can dance, I'll apologize for my rude behavior.
00:22:25Go ahead, sweetheart, show everyone your dance moves.
00:22:28Oh wait, do you need a pole?
00:22:31Lena, show them what you showed me.
00:22:34Make it worth her while.
00:22:38Ryan, I thought you were different.
00:22:40Lena, I'm trying to protect you.
00:22:43I'll dance, but it's not to prove anything.
00:22:45Consider it a birthday gift, Mr. Gray.
00:22:47I'm sure it'll be the finest gift I received tonight.
00:23:11Dancing is the biggest gift my mother's ever given me.
00:23:15It's the only thing that makes me feel the most free.
00:23:18You can all insult me as much as you want.
00:23:21And I will never let anyone trample what my mother gave me.
00:23:25I don't care how powerful or wealthy you are.
00:23:28I will always live my life in grace and dignity.
00:23:35That's for all the women you've disrespected.
00:23:42That was the most extraordinary gift I received this evening.
00:23:45Thank you, Mr. Gray.
00:23:47And while yes, I'm also a hostess, I'm also a great dancer.
00:23:51No matter what profession Miss Lena is, she's my special guest.
00:23:55Thank you, Mr. Gray. Enjoy your birthday dinner.
00:24:03Some wounds need immediate attention, right?
00:24:06Don't let pride get in your way.
00:24:09I hope next time to see a lovely lovely lady by your side.
00:24:26Hey. I think these are yours.
00:24:33Put them on. The ground's frozen. You're gonna get sick.
00:24:36Why did you make me dance?
00:24:37To prove something I didn't need to prove to anybody?
00:24:40Lena, I was trying to...
00:24:41Protection? I don't need your protection, okay?
00:24:44You're just trying to show off to them, Mr. Carter.
00:24:47What did you want me to do?
00:24:48Let Ray humiliate you in front of everybody?
00:24:51Yeah, I'd rather be humiliated than be your little monkey.
00:24:55Lena, I would never hurt you.
00:24:57But you did.
00:24:58And that's the worst part.
00:24:59You don't even know that you did.
00:25:05You know, you're right.
00:25:07I'm a selfish, arrogant prick who broke your glass slipper tonight.
00:25:30I'm gonna stand out here with you.
00:25:36Damn, it's cold.
00:25:38Yeah, it's raining. What did you expect?
00:25:40I was hoping to look like more of a hero trying to convince you to stay.
00:25:44All right, Ryan. I have to go.
00:25:47Why?
00:25:49Ryan, you're really good to me.
00:25:50Probably more than you should be.
00:25:52And you're incredibly handsome and gentle and even shield me from the rain.
00:25:56But you know as well as I do.
00:25:58We're from different worlds.
00:26:01I should go.
00:26:05You can't just come crashing into my world and leave whenever you feel like it.
00:26:09I paid for your time.
00:26:11The least you could do is honor the contract.
00:26:14But tonight's almost over, Mr. Carter.
00:26:15My heart was beating out of my chest watching you dance in there.
00:26:20And it's never beat like that for anything in my entire life.
00:26:24Just don't go.
00:26:28But Ryan, you crossed the line first.
00:26:32What do I have to do?
00:26:35I couldn't resist him.
00:26:38Not with my body and not with my heart.
00:26:41My head is spinning over you.
00:26:46It's almost midnight.
00:26:48You sure you don't want me to leave?
00:26:49No rush, Cinderella.
00:26:51You just got yourself an extended contract.
00:26:53You're gonna carry me to the bedroom.
00:26:55Your precious bottom line's in the drawer.
00:26:57You're gonna carry me to the mirror of my senses.
00:27:01You keep me locked under your spell.
00:27:09The plan is advancing smoothly.
00:27:11So then why do I feel so uneasy?
00:27:15Mmm.
00:27:21Were you watching you sleep?
00:27:23Actually, I was counting the minutes for you to wake up so I could take your money.
00:27:28Are you sure about extending the contract?
00:27:31My chance to walk away.
00:27:35Well, if I'm going down in five days, I'd much rather be by your hand.
00:27:39So, go ahead and pull the trigger.
00:27:44Right. Five more days.
00:27:46I'd almost forgotten this is just a deal.
00:27:52What are we doing today?
00:27:54Well, we are acquiring land.
00:27:59Land?
00:28:01Yeah, you met the owner last night.
00:28:04I'll have wardrobes send something up.
00:28:07Wait.
00:28:09I have a specific delivery person.
00:28:12Hmm?
00:28:14Good morning, Mr. Carter.
00:28:16It is my distinct pleasure to...
00:28:20Oh, shit.
00:28:25What did he think of that for?
00:28:29Oh my god, is that a tooth?
00:28:33No, it's just random debris.
00:28:35Mr. Carter, I am deeply sorry for my employee's behavior.
00:28:39I assure you, he will never work here again.
00:28:43You should be apologizing to her.
00:28:45Of course.
00:28:46Ma'am, is there anything I can do to make this right?
00:28:50Well, I already knocked him down a bit, but since you're offering...
00:28:53I can comp you both to a top-tier luxury dinner.
00:28:57Name the time and it's done.
00:29:00Lobster included?
00:29:01Certainly.
00:29:02And our finest champagne.
00:29:05I won't disturb you any longer.
00:29:11Well, you have to admit, I was pretty good back there.
00:29:14I took boxing lessons as a kid, so...
00:29:17Oh, please. I threw the knockout punch.
00:29:20But...
00:29:21Since you did try to help,
00:29:23I do have a little gift for you.
00:29:26Hmm?
00:29:31For good luck.
00:29:47This place is beautiful.
00:29:49Mr. and Mrs. Gray designed it together.
00:29:52Today's the anniversary of her death.
00:29:55Before she passed, she gave Mr. Gray a vineyard.
00:29:58It's the same land we're trying to acquire.
00:30:00You mean...
00:30:02He's okay with selling his late wife's land?
00:30:06Didn't you hear?
00:30:07Mr. Gray's business is drowning in debt.
00:30:11Who came to the rescue?
00:30:13My dear big brother.
00:30:15The man who sees people as numbers.
00:30:19Hey, ma'am, what is he saying?
00:30:21What I'm saying...
00:30:23Is that unless Mr. Gray sells this land...
00:30:26Half his workers will lose their jobs.
00:30:28And this place...
00:30:30Becomes a money-grab resort.
00:30:35Sad, isn't it?
00:30:37People say I'm the bad egg of the family.
00:30:40Gray, what are you doing here?
00:30:41What I always do.
00:30:44Taking what's yours.
00:30:45Listen, we got off on the wrong foot.
00:30:48But you have to understand...
00:30:50The man next to you is much worse than I'll ever be.
00:30:53He only cares about money.
00:30:56Great Father, it seems like the vineyard is getting tied a bit of a tenser state.
00:31:00If I had a choice, I'd keep their memories forever.
00:31:05That land is where my wife Penny and I planted our vines.
00:31:09She loved winemaking.
00:31:11Though the grapes were always too sour for her liking.
00:31:15I was the only one that liked them.
00:31:18Mr. Carter, if you do take the land, would you at least keep part of the vineyard?
00:31:25Business is business, Mr. Gray.
00:31:28My team has already laid the blueprint to acquire this land for a resort.
00:31:32I am willing to pay over market value.
00:31:35Not one row of vines.
00:31:37That means everything's to Mr. Gray.
00:31:39There's no feelings in building an empire.
00:31:44Do we have a deal, Mr. Gray?
00:31:46Why don't you sell instead to me, Mr. Gray?
00:31:49I may have a reputation of being impulsive, but...
00:31:52At least I have a heart.
00:31:56We can find a way to work together and we'll honor your late wife's family.
00:32:08Very well, Mr. Ray Carter.
00:32:09I'd like that very much.
00:32:21Are you mad at me?
00:32:23They were on my brother's side back there.
00:32:25Hey, there were no sides.
00:32:27I just...
00:32:28Felt bad for Mr. Gray.
00:32:31Your sympathy just cost me 200 million dollars.
00:32:34I...
00:32:35I mean, that land is worth 200 million.
00:32:39How much do you think his memories are worth?
00:32:42Not everything has a price tag, Ryan.
00:32:45You, of all people, should know that.
00:32:49If I didn't have money, would you even still be with me?
00:32:52Is that what you think?
00:32:53Isn't it?
00:32:55Well, I guess it started as that, but then I...
00:32:58Then what?
00:32:59Are you really gonna say that you fell in love with me?
00:33:09I'm sorry, okay?
00:33:12I'm...
00:33:12I'm not mad at you.
00:33:14I'm mad at myself.
00:33:18No, you are mad at me.
00:33:20I almost believed we had something real.
00:33:23Stop the car.
00:33:24Lena.
00:33:25I said stop the damn car!
00:33:27I said stop the damn car!
00:33:32Listen, we started off as an arrangement.
00:33:34And I was clear with you from the beginning.
00:33:37I never lied to you.
00:33:40But...
00:33:42There are boundaries in this type of arrangement.
00:33:45I respect you.
00:33:47And I need you to respect me and what I do.
00:33:50We can't let emotions get in the way of business.
00:33:52This type of arrangement?
00:33:54Did you even hear what I just said?
00:33:55I'm good. I'm out.
00:33:56Open the door.
00:33:57Just open the damn door!
00:34:01Let her out.
00:34:10I'll be at the hotel, okay?
00:34:14Oh, Ryan.
00:34:33Hey, Elise.
00:34:33Um, it's really bad.
00:34:35I know we had a deal, but I don't know if I can do this anymore.
00:34:39And...
00:34:39I don't even know what Ryan wants, really.
00:34:42So...
00:34:44But I do think I'm starting to fall for your fiancé.
00:35:07This is great.
00:35:09Reminds me of the kind that Mom had as a kid.
00:35:13All vanilla tastes the same, honey.
00:35:15It's crazy, right?
00:35:16Five dollar ice cream and I forgot why I was sobbing an hour ago.
00:35:19Ice cream can't fix your problems, but...
00:35:22It can make you feel better in the moment.
00:35:25That's what my dad always says.
00:35:32Then why me?
00:35:34Why me, Elise? I mean, what do you need me to do this for?
00:35:37Do you really hate Ryan that much?
00:35:41No.
00:35:43I don't hate him.
00:35:45Then what is it? Are you trying to tank the family business?
00:35:48No, that's not it either.
00:35:51Come on, what's your game?
00:35:52Because it's not every day that someone just asks you to sleep with their fiancé.
00:35:58I can't tell you just yet.
00:36:01Not right now.
00:36:02But you can say, why me?
00:36:05Tell me why me, or...
00:36:13I'm placing a bet that Ryan Carter will fall for you.
00:36:23Not a crush, not some impulsive spark, but completely fall for you.
00:36:31And before you ask about Ryan and I, we're a business arrangement.
00:36:36Our family's tied the knot, not us.
00:36:38He doesn't love me.
00:36:40His father wanted it and so he agreed.
00:36:42But I have a backup plan.
00:36:45You.
00:36:48If Ryan agrees to call off the engagement, for you, for your baby, all three of us can benefit.
00:36:54I get out of a miserable marriage and...
00:36:58You get enough money to buy your mom's house back.
00:37:02Let me get this straight.
00:37:03I'm the pawn in this whole sabotage wedding thing.
00:37:07That's your game?
00:37:08No.
00:37:09Not a pawn.
00:37:10A...
00:37:11A key.
00:37:12And I didn't choose randomly.
00:37:14Lena, you're the only one that's ever made him stop and feel something.
00:37:18Even for a second.
00:37:20That's never gonna happen.
00:37:22He's a spoiled, self-righteous jerk.
00:37:25He's not as bad as you think.
00:37:27When he was 16, he worked three jobs just to pay for surgery for a dying stray dog.
00:37:33Never told a soul.
00:37:35You knew.
00:37:36You really love him, don't you?
00:37:41I won't pretend otherwise.
00:37:43But no woman wants to be with a husband whose heart is somewhere else.
00:37:47And staying in a loveless marriage will only lead to resentment.
00:37:51But you're different.
00:37:53You don't let him get away with that cold billionaire air act.
00:37:56He can't resist that.
00:37:58Sounds insane.
00:38:01You were right though.
00:38:03I don't know why, but...
00:38:04I do kinda like him.
00:38:08Don't be afraid of love, Lena.
00:38:10And don't let fear stop you from taking back what's true of yours.
00:38:18I need time to think about it.
00:38:20Give me a day.
00:38:27Don't worry, Lena.
00:38:29I don't have much time.
00:38:40Is this really our new home, Mommy?
00:38:44Yes.
00:38:45There's no more moving from place to place.
00:38:49So, Lena, do you think you could like it here?
00:38:54Where?
00:38:56Where's Daddy?
00:38:57Is he going to live with us too?
00:39:00No, sweetheart.
00:39:01It's a new job.
00:39:03Keeps him very, very far away.
00:39:05Come on.
00:39:06Let's go see the new place.
00:39:09You're lying.
00:39:10Daddy promised he'll always be a family.
00:39:13I'm going to find him back.
00:39:15Lena, wait!
00:39:17No!
00:39:20How you doing?
00:39:30You're right!
00:39:34Mommy!
00:39:50How many times do you have to explain this?
00:39:52Your husband took the loan before the divorce.
00:39:55Since he's vanished, you are responsible.
00:39:58Get out of our house.
00:40:00You know that if you don't pay up, the bank takes the house.
00:40:05I said get out!
00:40:08Jeez, she's insane.
00:40:10Come on, let's go.
00:40:16Mom, are we moving again?
00:40:21I'm so sorry, Lena.
00:40:23I'm so sorry.
00:40:30It's okay, Mom.
00:40:32I'll get our house back.
00:40:34I'll do whatever it takes.
00:40:42Hey, just want to make sure you're okay.
00:40:47Knock, knock, knock.
00:40:51Lena!
00:40:52Your towel, Mr. Carter!
00:40:57Thanks.
00:41:11I'm sorry.
00:41:32When were you?
00:41:40Where were you?
00:41:41Where were you?
00:41:45You knew I'd come back, didn't you?
00:41:48I just hoped you would.
00:41:56Why?
00:41:57Because you're the one thing I can't seem to stay away from.
00:42:01My heart has a price too.
00:42:03And right now, it's worth five million.
00:42:06And the thing is, I've already fallen for him.
00:42:10Do you regret asking me to stay?
00:42:12Not in a million years.
00:42:22I thought you'd given it back.
00:42:24I bought it for you.
00:42:27Then put it on me, Mr. Carter.
00:42:42Mr. Gray seemed really content with that offer.
00:42:45Are you sure about the land?
00:42:46I mean, maybe you should just leave it to your brother.
00:42:48My brother only makes a move when there's something in it for himself.
00:42:51In this case, it's merely to screw me over.
00:42:54But you're saying you lied to Mr. Gray.
00:42:57What I'm saying is, there's no such thing as a win-win in the Carter family.
00:43:01But in your case, I'm willing to make an exception.
00:43:03You have to trust me.
00:43:05You have to trust me.
00:43:05Completely.
00:43:06What do you mean me to do?
00:43:14You can't be serious.
00:43:20Figured you couldn't stay away, brother.
00:43:22It's mine remains mine.
00:43:25Some things never change.
00:43:31You know the deal.
00:43:32One round, winner takes all.
00:43:37Sure.
00:43:39But before we start, what are you putting on the table?
00:43:43I think we've wanted for years.
00:43:46Dad's watch.
00:43:51Cute.
00:43:52But we're playing for 200 million.
00:43:54So you have to do a little bit better.
00:43:56Than a sentimental family heirloom.
00:44:01I'll send you your watch.
00:44:03And raise you your gift.
00:44:09Say another word about her, and I will rearrange your face.
00:44:15What has gotten into you, Ryan?
00:44:17Ever since you started hanging around with the escort,
00:44:20you've completely lost your sense of humor.
00:44:25I never take a deal that one-sided.
00:44:27Here's a wager you're actually qualified for.
00:44:32If you lose, call off the engagement with Elise.
00:44:37What do you need me to do?
00:44:41Cheat for me.
00:44:44What?
00:44:45How do I do that?
00:44:47Just relax.
00:44:49Just hand me whatever card you think will help me win.
00:44:56If I let Ryan lose, my deal with Elise is done.
00:44:59I get the house back.
00:45:00But if he wins, Mr. Gray loses his vineyard.
00:45:04Well, Ryan?
00:45:05Be playing or not.
00:45:07Deal.
00:45:28Oh, that look.
00:45:31Don't tell me you picked the runt of the litter.
00:45:34Wouldn't you like to know?
00:45:35Don't to do it.
00:45:36One by eight for santa.
00:45:58Three aces vs. three sad little kings.
00:46:05Looks like a lot of part you could decide, brother.
00:46:08Game's out over to the last part of this table.
00:46:10Deal.
00:46:19My father should be here to see this.
00:46:22Oh, I'll save you the suspense.
00:46:27I got a full house.
00:46:28Aces over queens.
00:46:30You need four kings to beat me.
00:46:32We both know that's impossible.
00:46:40Well, good thing Lady Luck's on my side.
00:46:44Isn't that right?
00:46:45You always have been the most luckiest man at the table.
00:46:51Why would you say we finish this?
00:46:53You can't beat me, little brother.
00:46:56Show your hands.
00:47:04Shhh.
00:47:06Just hand me whatever card you think will Halloween win.
00:47:25You're a cheating son of a bitch.
00:47:29Forgive me Elise.
00:47:31But I couldn't help it.
00:47:32He needed me in that moment.
00:47:34I had to help him.
00:47:37Take your damn contract.
00:47:38But remember this.
00:47:39You'll never deserve money.
00:47:43That was way too close.
00:47:47The upside is Mr. Grey gets to keep what's important to him.
00:47:51And for what else?
00:47:54In that moment, something in me knew that we were always meant to part.
00:47:59But our soul's desire cares for no one.
00:48:03It wants what it wants.
00:48:11So what are you going to do in Mr. Grey's Vineyard?
00:48:14What I'm going to do is build the type of resort that the world is going to bend over backwards
00:48:19for.
00:48:20Can't you leave part of the vineyard?
00:48:22I'm guessing I love it.
00:48:24I could.
00:48:27Only if you promised to dance underneath the vines.
00:48:31Like this.
00:48:47Exactly like that.
00:48:52Stay with me, Luna.
00:48:55Gladly.
00:48:58So what should we do to celebrate?
00:48:59I do recall the manager saying that it was an expensive dinner on the house.
00:49:05Ooh, lobster.
00:49:06I can't wait to...
00:49:07Holy shit, who's this?
00:49:16That's my father.
00:49:20You owe me an explanation.
00:49:23Not silence.
00:49:25Probably when it comes to my personal life, there's no explanation necessary.
00:49:35How dare you speak to me like that?
00:49:37Tell me, son.
00:49:38What is our family motto?
00:49:40Honor before all.
00:49:43And family before self.
00:49:47Remember, you are my firstborn.
00:49:50An heir to the Carter Empire.
00:49:54End this childish game.
00:49:57I need things cleaned up before the engagement.
00:50:02And don't make me repeat myself.
00:50:04Father, listen.
00:50:05I understand that the logical choice for the family's sake would be to marry Elise, but I...
00:50:10There's no fuss.
00:50:11You carried the family legacy.
00:50:14Do you understand that?
00:50:18Well, if you understand it, then what is she still doing here?
00:50:26Father, I...
00:50:27Hi, Mr. Carter.
00:50:29I'm Lena Morgan.
00:50:33It's a pleasure to meet you.
00:50:35Would you like some tea?
00:50:39Get that out of my face!
00:50:42What the hell is the matter with you?
00:50:46She did nothing wrong.
00:50:48What have I taught you, son?
00:50:49You do not mix emotions with business.
00:50:53And I did not raise you to end up with a woman who entertains men for a living.
00:51:01Get her out of here.
00:51:03Now!
00:51:08Lena, go on for a while.
00:51:10I'll call later.
00:51:16I should have known better.
00:51:18What was I expecting?
00:51:22Thanks for your generosity, Mr. Carter.
00:51:24It was a pleasure doing business with you.
00:51:33Shit.
00:51:34Hey, sorry I'm late.
00:51:37Elise!
00:51:38I ruined it all.
00:51:43It failed.
00:51:44I tried to do everything you said, but Ryan still doesn't want me.
00:51:48I mean, he just stood there.
00:51:49He did nothing to help me.
00:51:51It's over.
00:51:53It's really over.
00:51:54No. No, it's okay.
00:51:56Come here.
00:51:58It'll be all right, okay?
00:52:00It'll be all right.
00:52:08You know, this ice cream kind of looks a lot like you right now.
00:52:12Shut up.
00:52:14Hey, look at me.
00:52:16It's not over.
00:52:17I don't know what happened, but I know that Ryan still cares about you.
00:52:21He cares about me?
00:52:24Elise, he gave me money and told me to leave.
00:52:26I'm nothing to him.
00:52:28I'm just some hooker he had fun with for a second and then his dad showed-
00:52:31Lena, no.
00:52:32I know Ryan.
00:52:33Just give him a chance to show-
00:52:34Stop lying to me.
00:52:36We're worlds apart.
00:52:38We're just the ugly duckling.
00:52:40And ever since I stepped foot into this world, everyone has looked down upon me.
00:52:44Everyone, Elise.
00:52:44Stop letting them.
00:52:46Be the swan.
00:52:48Make them choke on their judgment.
00:52:50That's easy for you to say.
00:52:52It's easier than you think.
00:52:55You and Ryan, you're not finished.
00:52:58How are you sure?
00:53:00Because I know Ryan.
00:53:03Yeah, I know that he loves you.
00:53:06Loves me?
00:53:08What does he love, my poverty or my shame?
00:53:11Look at this, Elise.
00:53:15That's what I'm worth.
00:53:17It made me in his heart, I really am worth that to him.
00:53:21Hey.
00:53:23Come with me, I want to show you something.
00:53:30I haven't seen myself in my eyes in so long.
00:53:33How did you get from the lettuce in and how did you know my size?
00:53:38Don't worry about that.
00:53:40Take a look at yourself in the mirror.
00:53:42The ugly duckling became a swan.
00:53:44Not because she changed.
00:53:47Believe in yourself.
00:53:48Believing is seeing.
00:53:54Mommy, did you see?
00:53:56I saw every single step.
00:53:59My beautiful little swan.
00:54:08I saw every single step.
00:54:09Your name was?
00:54:09Lena.
00:54:10Lena Morgan.
00:54:12I'm gonna stand out here with you.
00:54:14Barefoot.
00:54:15We look ridiculous.
00:54:19Stay with me.
00:54:21Gladly.
00:54:22Lena, go on for a while.
00:54:25I'll call later.
00:54:25I'll call later.
00:54:25No...
00:54:42The Th hormon.
00:54:42Can you shut up with me?
00:54:42The nextuu.
00:54:51As you've heard,
00:54:52baby will help start the same thing as you have.
00:54:55Lena, someday you're going to be the brightest one in the room.
00:54:59Trust in your heart. It knows what you truly desire.
00:55:03Why did you choose me to be with him?
00:55:07I can't tell you yet, but I hope to see you again tomorrow.
00:55:11Elise, are we human friends?
00:55:19I would like to think so.
00:55:33Come in.
00:55:38Sir, are you alright?
00:55:39My well-being is not part of your job description.
00:55:43Right, I'm sorry.
00:55:45We have an update on the resort project.
00:55:47According to the designers, the vineyard needs to be cleared.
00:55:50All that's left is your signature.
00:55:53Can't you leave part of the vineyard? I'm guessing I love it.
00:55:57I could.
00:56:00Only if you promised to dance underneath the vines.
00:56:04Like this?
00:56:17Tell him to redesign the plan. I want the vineyard integrated into the resort plan.
00:56:23Yeah, of course, sir.
00:56:25Also, your engagement party with Miss Elise is tomorrow.
00:56:29The Jets have already been scheduled.
00:56:40Sir?
00:56:42I heard you.
00:56:54I do have a little gift for you.
00:56:58For good luck.
00:57:11Oh, what's the rush, big bro?
00:57:14What's wrong?
00:57:15You running off to find your little hooker?
00:57:17You know, I actually might know which club she's at tonight you want to come with.
00:57:21Careful, Ray.
00:57:22She's saved her life more than once.
00:57:24Oh, don't be so tense, big bro.
00:57:26I'm not the one who narced on you.
00:57:29What do you want?
00:57:30Hmm.
00:57:32Well, see, since you're getting engaged tomorrow, I suppose you remind me spending the night with Miss Lena.
00:57:37I'll pay her a while.
00:57:38Double even.
00:57:40Get fucked, Ray.
00:57:42Next time I won't hold back.
00:57:44So it's true.
00:57:45You're in love with her.
00:57:47You've fallen for a war.
00:57:53Elise loves you and you still entertain that war!
00:57:56You're a fucking disgrace, Ryan!
00:58:15Mr. Carter, care to join me this evening?
00:58:22I thought you'd never come back.
00:58:24Can't get rid of me that easily.
00:58:26Your father doesn't scare me, but I really want to start over.
00:58:32Leave the past in the past.
00:58:33I'm Lena, future world famous ballerina. Pleasure to meet you.
00:58:39Ryan, pleasure's mine.
00:58:45I've missed you.
00:58:47I've missed you too.
00:58:52This is my secret hideout.
00:58:55It's really, really nice.
00:58:58You can scream as loud as you want up here and no one cares.
00:59:01For months after I quit dance, I would come and hide out here to kill time.
00:59:07Then once class was over, I would go home once my mom was there.
00:59:11What happened?
00:59:13We went bankrupt.
00:59:15The bank took our house, moved into a tiny crammed apartment.
00:59:19She was in a wheelchair, you know, so she could only do so many jobs.
00:59:23We couldn't really make ends meet.
00:59:26And despite the bad situation, she still wanted me to keep dancing.
00:59:32She said, never give up, Lena.
00:59:36Dancing is a gift.
00:59:38Gives us wings that keep us free.
00:59:40But I lost my wings.
00:59:43I stopped dancing.
00:59:45Then I picked up whatever job I could.
00:59:49Even tried doing...
00:59:52Well, you know the rest.
00:59:57Well, you know the rest.
01:00:00Lena, you have not lost your wings.
01:00:03I can still see them.
01:00:07Thanks.
01:00:09So, Harvard boy.
01:00:11What's your story?
01:00:13Oh, you know, nothing out of the ordinary.
01:00:16Grew up in a castle.
01:00:18Drinking the boar's blood.
01:00:20Silver spoons, all that.
01:00:22Didn't take you as a Twilight fan.
01:00:24Oh.
01:00:27But the spoons were silver.
01:00:30Now, I'm sure you've seen that my father isn't the warmest.
01:00:33He would pit Ray and I against each other, and whoever would win the battle
01:00:37would also win his attention for the next week.
01:00:41Call it raising the wolf's spirit.
01:00:45And then there's my mother.
01:00:48She's the complete opposite.
01:00:50She was hilarious and rebellious.
01:00:55Some days she'd even get Ray and I out of school and go on a midday picnic.
01:00:59And then sit in the principal's office and just laugh.
01:01:03Be like, oh, I don't know what you're talking about.
01:01:05Just totally shocked.
01:01:07It's like no matter which one of us won my father's little battle,
01:01:11she would be there to comfort us.
01:01:14One time we all ganged up, and we put hot sauce on my father's shaving cream.
01:01:22Sounds amazing.
01:01:24Where is she?
01:01:28She, uh...
01:01:32She died.
01:01:34A car accident.
01:01:35I was 13.
01:01:39She would have loved you though.
01:01:42You're both so spontaneous.
01:01:47I think that's why we're here together now.
01:01:50Two sides of the same spirit.
01:02:00Ryan?
01:02:02Mm-hmm?
01:02:03What do we do about your father?
01:02:06Nobody is going to stop us from being together.
01:02:09Not even my father.
01:02:17Uh, sir?
01:02:19The jet's ready.
01:02:20Your engagement party with Miss Elise starts in two hours.
01:02:24You ready?
01:02:26Ready.
01:02:30Needed.
01:02:33To the action.
01:02:44Your father?ność?
01:02:50Cornish?
01:02:58Asyou can't
01:03:00Bring her to the engagement party.
01:03:02Look who it is.
01:03:03The prodigal son.
01:03:05Bringing a whore to his engagement party.
01:03:08Alina's my girlfriend.
01:03:10Your girlfriend?
01:03:12What does this make my daughter?
01:03:15Actually, I have to apologize to the both of you.
01:03:18I came here tonight to officially end the engagement.
01:03:22What kind of sick joke is this?
01:03:25Ryan, have you lost your mind?
01:03:27No, father.
01:03:28In fact, I've made up my mind.
01:03:31I want to call it off.
01:03:32I was the one who orchestrated all of this.
01:03:35Why does it still hurt so much?
01:03:37You don't need him.
01:03:40I'll marry you.
01:03:42What do you take my daughter for?
01:03:44Is she some kind of a toy?
01:03:46To be passed around? Your sons?
01:03:49Always.
01:03:50I've known you since we were five.
01:03:52Even since we were little kids, I have always felt so drawn to you.
01:03:56I've seen the way you look at Ryan.
01:03:58Her whole face lights up when you're around him.
01:04:00And I know.
01:04:02I know exactly what it feels like to love someone who won't love you back.
01:04:07Ray.
01:04:09I might not be perfect.
01:04:11Maybe I'm far from it.
01:04:12But I would never, on what is meant to be the happiest day of your life,
01:04:16bring a hooker to embarrass you in front of everyone.
01:04:19Enough!
01:04:20Know your place, boy.
01:04:24Richard, I give you my word.
01:04:27I will handle this with Ryan personally.
01:04:30The engagement will go through.
01:04:32So you knew about this all along?
01:04:37I...
01:04:38No, no, I...
01:04:38I...
01:04:39I didn't.
01:04:40But this is on me.
01:04:42I should have raised me better.
01:04:45What happened?
01:04:46Apparently, Ryan Carter's damping hay series for a whore.
01:04:50Ryan, we've known you since you were a boy.
01:04:53You and Elise grew up together.
01:04:55You know that she loved you this whole time.
01:04:57How can you treat her like that?
01:04:59I take full responsibility, sir.
01:05:02I fear that if I'm not honest with her now,
01:05:04I might hurt her sometime down the line.
01:05:06I will make it up to you.
01:05:08Make it up to her?
01:05:10But how?
01:05:11By humiliating her with this...
01:05:13Street wrath!
01:05:15No, stop.
01:05:21Ryan...
01:05:22You love her?
01:05:26Yes, I do.
01:05:29It's alright.
01:05:30I've been waiting for this.
01:05:32Please!
01:05:33How can you say that?
01:05:34Mom, please stop.
01:05:35This isn't anyone's fault but my own.
01:05:39I agree to call it off.
01:05:42If that's what you want.
01:05:43Don't worry, my dear.
01:05:45Ryan's confused.
01:05:46She's got cold feet with the thought of getting married.
01:05:51He'll get over it once the thrill is gone.
01:05:55Actually, father, I'm not confused.
01:05:57In fact, this is the most clarity I've ever had in my life.
01:06:00I love Lena.
01:06:02I'm gonna marry her.
01:06:05Absolutely not!
01:06:07A woman like her is beneath you.
01:06:09She does not-
01:06:10Mr. Carter.
01:06:11I'm sorry, what exactly is a woman like me?
01:06:17I'm sorry, what exactly is a woman like me?
01:06:20Classless, slow life who just learned to talk back.
01:06:24I will tell you who you are.
01:06:25A homewrecker!
01:06:26Your mother has never taught you anything else?
01:06:29Apart from seducing somebody else's fiance?
01:06:32Mom, stop.
01:06:34My mom taught me a lot of things, yeah.
01:06:36But she never taught me to tear down other women.
01:06:38And aside from fancy clothes, you and I are the same.
01:06:43Except I don't degrade people by putting them down.
01:06:45She got balls.
01:06:48How dare you!
01:06:50Mom, stop!
01:06:52That's enough!
01:06:53I want to call off the wedding!
01:06:55Elise, certainly we can work something out here.
01:06:57No, enough!
01:06:59I just want Ryan to be happy.
01:07:02I want him to be truly happy.
01:07:07Elise.
01:07:07My sweet child.
01:07:10But how about your happiness?
01:07:13Mom.
01:07:13Dad.
01:07:14Calling off this engagement is the last thing I'll ever ask of you.
01:07:18Please.
01:07:25You've heard my daughter.
01:07:27The engagement between our two families ends here.
01:07:30Now leave.
01:07:32Thank you all for your understanding.
01:07:35Let's go.

01:10:48I'm really sorry, I didn't know, I didn't think that...
01:10:51You didn't think?
01:10:54You didn't think for one second that what you were doing was completely fucked?
01:10:58No, I didn't think that it would go this way.
01:11:01So it's all been a lie.
01:11:03So it's all been a lie.
01:11:03You were only with me because of the money.
01:11:09Is that it?
01:11:12Answer me.
01:11:16It was a lie at first, okay?
01:11:19But then I just...
01:11:20Shut up!
01:11:23Shut up!
01:11:24I'll have someone come take you home.
01:11:26Don't worry, I'll just see myself out.
01:11:36I'm sorry.
01:11:40I didn't think it would go this way.
01:11:50I don't deserve your forgiveness.
01:11:53I don't deserve your forgiveness.
01:11:54Compared to Elise's love, I'm...
01:11:55I'm just a thief.
01:11:57Stealing the last moments of happiness she had left.
01:12:00Maybe it's better that everything goes back to where they belong.
01:12:04Including me.
01:12:17Ryan.
01:12:18You came.
01:12:19You shouldn't be here.
01:12:22No, Ray.
01:12:23It's okay.
01:12:24I want to speak to him alone.
01:12:45I'm guessing she told you everything.
01:12:48Why?
01:12:50Why would you do all that?
01:12:51I don't have much time left.
01:12:54But I wanted to see you happy.
01:12:56With my own eyes.
01:12:58Why Lena though, Elise?
01:13:00Why her?
01:13:01Yeah.
01:13:03Why her, right?
01:13:09Are you okay?
01:13:14I'm Lena, by the way.
01:13:16I know you.
01:13:17You are the best in the class.
01:13:19Everyone say, like, that's like ugly ducklings are you here to never beat you.
01:13:26The truth is, all beautiful swans were ones like ugly ducklings, too.
01:13:42Elise, you have been working so hard.
01:13:45One day you can turn into a beautiful swan.
01:13:48So why are you helping?
01:13:52Because girls should help girls.
01:14:00Because no one really stands a chance against Lena's charms.
01:14:05So you just play matchmaker for me?
01:14:08You force me into love?
01:14:09I mean, was that your grand plan?
01:14:15I only brought her to you, Ryan.
01:14:17I can't force you to love her.
01:14:19That was all you.
01:14:21Ever since I was a little girl.
01:14:23Every birthday wish I ever made was to be a bride.
01:14:26If you didn't want to marry Lena, I would have gladly dragged this dying body down the aisle for you.
01:14:34Think about who's the last person to make you laugh like that.
01:14:39You should go.
01:14:41If you don't go after her, it might be too late.
01:14:49Hey, if you care about her, do what she's asking.
01:14:56I'll back off.
01:14:58Her release.
01:15:00End the inheritance.
01:15:02End the inheritance.
01:15:14These seven days felt like Cinderella's dream.
01:15:18In the end, when the clock strikes midnight,
01:15:22Cinderella turns back into who she really is.
01:15:25All dreams eventually come to an end.
01:15:29Goodbye, Ryan.
01:15:45Lena!
01:15:55Your name was?
01:15:56Lena.
01:15:57Lena Morgan.
01:15:58Mr. Carter.
01:16:00Here to join me this evening?
01:16:01I'm Lena.
01:16:03Future world famous ballerina.
01:16:04Pleasure to meet you.
01:16:13Looks like that girl made the right choice for you, son.
01:16:17You can still get back on the right path.
01:16:20The right path?
01:16:21Oh, you mean the one that you paved for me.
01:16:25Everything.
01:16:26Everything you have, your name, your status, comes from this family.
01:16:33That comes with responsibility.
01:16:37What else is new, father?
01:16:39Carter's don't get freedom, son.
01:16:41From the day you were born, you carried the seed for the future of this entire family.
01:16:49That woman, that homewrecker, she was just going to drag you down and make a joke on him.
01:16:56Then let them laugh.
01:16:57I don't care.
01:17:00You know, if your brother was a damn, and it kicked you a long time ago, you do whatever
01:17:06you have to do.
01:17:08But from this moment forward, nobody dictates my life but me.
01:17:12You, then.
01:17:15What's your funny?
01:17:20What's your funny?
01:17:21You, you hide behind your violence because you think it makes you look strong.
01:17:26And me!
01:17:27Being afraid of it for half my life.
01:17:29But I'm not afraid anymore.
01:17:34Where are you going?
01:17:35To find the love of my life.
01:17:40You go after that bitch and I swear I will take everything back from you.
01:17:49Do what you feel, father.
01:17:50But I'm done playing by your survival of the fittest rules.
01:17:53How dare you!
01:17:58Little brother, the empire is yours.
01:18:02Good luck.
01:18:04You take care of Mr. Gray's vineyard.
01:18:08I will.
01:18:17Don't, don't answer.
01:18:20You're doing the right thing.
01:18:26Really?
01:18:29You're crying.
01:18:30You're crying.
01:18:45You're going to get my shirt all sticky.
01:18:47I thought I would never see you again.
01:18:50Lena, I'm sorry for everything.
01:18:53Every hurtful thing I said.
01:18:58I didn't know Elise was sick.
01:19:00She never told me.
01:19:02And yes, it started as just money.
01:19:06But I fell in love with you.
01:19:10I know none of this is because of you.
01:19:17I love you, Lena.
01:19:19I love you, too.
01:19:28I want to go see Elise.
01:19:32She shouldn't be alone.
01:19:34I'll go with you.
01:19:42It looks like you've made up your mind.
01:19:45I'm sorry.
01:19:47There's no need to apologize.
01:19:51Can I have a minute with her?
01:19:53Sure.
01:20:01Do you hate me?
01:20:05Lena, why would I hate you?
01:20:08I already told you you're my friend.
01:20:11Do you regret any of it?
01:20:12No.
01:20:13No regrets.
01:20:15A little jealous of you, though.
01:20:17Maybe more than a little.
01:20:21There's so much I want to ask you.
01:20:24I know.
01:20:25I just wanted to see Ryan happy before I go.
01:20:28I'm sorry I didn't tell you.
01:20:30It wasn't fair to you.
01:20:32Well, why me?
01:20:35I mean, I could have been the worst person in the world.
01:20:38But you're not.
01:20:39You're kind.
01:20:40And even when life buried you, you still held on to who you are.
01:20:45Have we met before?
01:20:51Wait, that's...
01:20:52The key to your mother's house.
01:20:54I bought it back for you.
01:20:57Elise, why would you?
01:20:58Because girls should help girls.
01:21:05Because girls should help girls.
01:21:13It's you.
01:21:14I thought you'd never remember.
01:21:17My little first friend.
01:21:18Think of the house as a wedding gift.
01:21:22For you and Ryan.
01:21:29What about you?
01:21:31Lena, you know that love can't be forced.
01:21:35It should set us free.
01:21:37And rather than focus on my own selfishness,
01:21:41I just want Ryan to be happy.
01:21:44Hey, don't look at me like that.
01:21:46Just live happily.
01:21:48For both of us.
01:21:56Elise's love.
01:21:57It's deeper than I thought.
01:22:00Do I really deserve this?
01:22:05How'd it go?
01:22:07It was good.
01:22:09Ryan, will you go back to mine?
01:22:11I want to show you something.
01:22:13I want to show you something.
01:22:26That was my mom.
01:22:28She was beautiful, wasn't she?
01:22:30Like mother, like daughter.
01:22:34She died because of me.
01:22:37First the car crash.
01:22:39Then she got sick.
01:22:41And I just watched her go.
01:22:47She gave me everything she had.
01:22:49Taught me everything she knew.
01:22:56It's my ballet recital.
01:22:59I was 12.
01:23:01She really does seem wonderful.
01:23:03I think she raised you well.
01:23:05She'd be proud of you.
01:23:21When I was little,
01:23:22we couldn't afford proper ballet shoes,
01:23:24so my mom made these.
01:23:28I hated them at first.
01:23:29I thought the kids would laugh at me.
01:23:31She said if you're really talented,
01:23:34no one will laugh.
01:23:37They're my favorite shoes.
01:23:39Seems like she really did love you.
01:23:42She did.
01:23:44She always told me to be myself.
01:23:50But then,
01:23:52I ended up a hostess at a nightclub.
01:23:54Well, at least I met you.
01:23:56Maybe she is looking out for me still.
01:23:59I'm pretty lucky to have you in my life too.
01:24:04No.
01:24:06No.
01:24:08Ryan,
01:24:08we're from two different worlds.
01:24:10We met by accident.
01:24:12I was...
01:24:13I was selfish,
01:24:14and I took you away from that world.
01:24:17What do you want, Nevin?
01:24:19Nobody can control my life anymore.
01:24:22I chose you.
01:24:23I fell in love with you.
01:24:26Elise couldn't convince me
01:24:27to do anything like that.
01:24:28I know,
01:24:28but Elise is the reason we are together.
01:24:30I know, it's true.
01:24:32Okay?
01:24:33We're from two different worlds,
01:24:34and I don't know that love
01:24:35is big enough to keep that together.
01:24:37So you're just going to throw it all away?
01:24:39Just like that?
01:24:40No, that's not...
01:24:46Lena,
01:24:47what do you want?
01:24:49I want you to be with Elise.
01:24:52Just Elise, try.
01:24:53Can you please do that?
01:24:55For me?
01:25:00Keep this.
01:25:04Until we meet again.
01:25:14Okay.
01:25:19Please don't go.
01:25:26Now please don't go.
01:25:45You turn my world upside down, Elise.
01:25:48Wherever you are,
01:25:49I hope you're in peace.
01:25:50I owe you much more than you know.
01:25:52She said the same thing about you.
01:25:54It's almost like you two
01:25:55were destined to cross paths.
01:25:57Mr. Carter,
01:25:58it's been a minute.
01:26:00It certainly has, Ms. Morgan.
01:26:02How's the dancing going?
01:26:04Should I be asking for an autograph?
01:26:07There were a few breaks here and there,
01:26:08but nothing major.
01:26:09It's going good though,
01:26:10you can still have the autograph.
01:26:14You know,
01:26:15your mother would be really proud
01:26:16of the woman you've become.
01:26:18I know Elise would be too.
01:26:20There's something
01:26:21I've been holding on to,
01:26:22and I want to give it to you.
01:26:27Why do you have this?
01:26:29Elise gave it to me.
01:26:30She said that only one woman
01:26:32had it in her possession,
01:26:33and that one woman was you.
01:26:45Also,
01:26:47there's something else
01:26:48I want to give to you.
01:26:58A year ago,
01:26:59I almost lost the most important person
01:27:01in my life.
01:27:02I want to make a promise
01:27:03I should have made then.
01:27:06I mean,
01:27:07beautiful,
01:27:08stubborn,
01:27:08little small.
01:27:10Will you marry me?
01:27:15How long does this contract
01:27:16go on for a Mr. Credit?
01:27:18I was hoping
01:27:19the rest of my life.
01:27:21What do you think?
01:27:24Yes?
01:27:51I love you.
01:27:53I love you, too.
01:27:58I was thinking about
01:27:59taking up ballet.
01:28:00Maybe you could teach me.
