00:00:1116 years. Ever since that lab explosion took my parents, I've been locked in this cage by Caleb Thorne.
00:00:18He's my guardian and my secret lover. He said once I got a faculty position at Faircroth, he'd consider being
00:00:25with me.
00:00:25Today's my 24th birthday. I turned down every invitation, ready to give myself to him.
00:00:39Caleb, slow down. Isn't it your little orphan's birthday today?
00:00:45Stay focused. Why bring her up?
00:00:49Heard she turned down every academic offer for you, dead set on getting in your bed.
00:00:54You've kept her in Manhattan for 16 years. You actually going to touch that virgin?
00:01:02Just a canary with a mental illness who can't survive without me.
00:01:09I keep her around to clean up the mess from that lab accident years ago.
00:01:13I know the difference between a woman and a pet.
00:01:25Ella, who gave you permission to watch?
00:01:28Go back to your room.
00:01:29Go back to your room.
00:01:42Caleb, you promised me.
00:01:46Dressed like this outside my door?
00:01:49You think you're some cheap whore?
00:01:51Today's my 24th birthday.
00:01:53I got the faculty offer from Faircroth.
00:01:55You'd consider us like the state of my her own and home.
00:01:59And you said once I had it, you'd consider us.
00:02:02I spent millions raising you.
00:02:03And this is how you repay me?
00:02:05With this filthy little scheme?
00:02:06I just love you, Caleb.
00:02:08Love?
00:02:09You're nothing but a pet I pay to keep around.
00:02:12You read a few books,
00:02:13and you actually think you can climb your master's bed?
00:02:30Listen up, all of you.
00:02:32Starting tonight, Serena is the lady of this penthouse.
00:02:35What she says goes.
00:02:38Yes, Mr. Thorne.
00:02:50Professor at Fairchit?
00:02:52Sounds real impressive.
00:02:55That promise?
00:02:56It was all just a game to you, wasn't it?
00:03:01Just a trick to keep a pet entertained.
00:03:04Who knew you'd be stupid enough to believe it?
00:03:10Know your place, Ella.
00:03:12Try this cheap little stunk again,
00:03:14and I'll throw you back to the slumps.
00:03:22Call the family trust.
00:03:24Separate Ella's bills from the family account.
00:03:26She's not part of the Thorne family.
00:03:27Just a pet I keep.
00:03:31Long-term investment?
00:03:33I was just a priced pet to him this whole time.
00:03:38Caleb, why are you still wearing this cheap thing?
00:03:42You're right.
00:03:43Cheap things don't belong on my wrist.
00:03:49That was his 18th birthday gift.
00:03:51I bought it with the money I made from my part-time work.
00:03:55He promised me he'd wear it forever.
00:03:59This Pat Falilip, I bought it at auction just for you.
00:04:02This is what fits your status.
00:04:15What are you still doing here?
00:04:17Take out the trash.
00:04:18You're getting in Serena's way.
00:04:24Caleb, bringing a moody orphan to a place like this?
00:04:30A pet needs to see the real world so she doesn't forget her worth.
00:04:35I don't know what I did wrong.
00:04:37Ever since he met Serena, he's done nothing but humiliate me like this.
00:04:44Polaris, that's the graduation gift he promised me.
00:04:48Caleb, this is for me?
00:04:51Polaris means the one and only guide.
00:04:54Only a woman who stands equal to the Thorne family deserves this.
00:05:04Pretty, isn't it, Ella?
00:05:05It's a gift from Caleb.
00:05:07Caleb, you lied to me.
00:05:09Lied to you?
00:05:11You think a faculty offer at Fairtick makes you worthy to stand by my side?
00:05:15You said it was mine.
00:05:16You're just a pet I own.
00:05:19Pets don't get to demand gifts from their masters.
00:05:23Get out.
00:05:24You're ruining the night.
00:05:31Gentlemen, to another successful quarter.
00:05:35Indeed.
00:05:37Though I must say, the real victory is yet to come.
00:05:42Couldn't agree more, Caleb.
00:05:52Ella, the chef made this especially for you.
00:05:56Have a taste.
00:06:00I'm sorry.
00:06:01I can't eat this.
00:06:03What's wrong?
00:06:04Not to your taste?
00:06:07Ready, don't about tip that escapes.
00:06:10All the partners are watching, Ella.
00:06:12Refusing your host food at a dinner party is terribly rude.
00:06:15Caleb, you know.
00:06:17I go into an anaphylactic shock if I eat peanuts.
00:06:24Cut the crap and stop making a scene.
00:06:34Caleb.
00:06:35Eat it.
00:06:36Don't make me say it again.
00:06:40He knew how deadly my peanut allergy was.
00:06:43Yet to save his new lover's face,
00:06:46he's forcing me to do this.
00:06:50He's forcing me to do this.
00:07:15Caleb.
00:07:18Caleb.
00:07:21Oh, my God, Caleb, she's terrifying like this.
00:07:24I am scared.
00:07:29Throw her out.
00:07:31Do not let her ruin Serena night.
00:07:47Well, what do we have here?
00:07:50A poor little thing thrown out by someone.
00:07:53You're real pretty.
00:07:55Why don't you keep me company?
00:08:04Ella?
00:08:05What happened to you?
00:08:06Hold on.
00:08:07I am taking you to the hospital right now.
00:08:10Hold on.
00:08:11I am taking you to the hospital right now.
00:08:22You're finally awake.
00:08:24The doctor said you'd be dead if you'd arrived ten minutes later.
00:08:30Where's Caleb?
00:08:32He's your legal guardian.
00:08:33How could he leave you to die in an alley?
00:08:35Fifteen years by his side.
00:08:37I thought I was his treasure.
00:08:39Until last night, I realized I was nothing but trash he could throw away whenever he wanted.
00:08:44Elliot, thank you for saving me.
00:08:47Are you okay?
00:08:51I'm fine.
00:08:53I just finally woke up.
00:08:57Caleb Thorne.
00:08:59From today on, I don't love you anymore.
00:09:06Well, look who's here.
00:09:07The stray dog Caleb keeps around.
00:09:09You sure have a hard life, didn't die in the hospital?
00:09:13Well, besides that pretty face, all she's good at is sucking up to people.
00:09:26That's the only thing my parents left me.
00:09:28How dare you use it as a table coder?
00:09:30Oh, I'm sorry.
00:09:32I thought it was just a piece of worthless trash.
00:09:36I wouldn't touch that if I were you.
00:09:38Don't say I didn't warn you.
00:09:39That champagne tower is resting on it.
00:09:41Every bottle here is worth more than your life.
00:09:43Can you afford it if it collapses?
00:09:45That's my parents' memento.
00:09:47Take it out and give it back to me.
00:09:48Memento?
00:09:49It's just a piece of junk.
00:09:51Being a coaster is the only use it has, just like you.
00:09:57This has everything that belongs to me.
00:09:59Give it back to me!
00:10:00You filthy little thing.
00:10:02You really think Caleb kept you around because he cared?
00:10:04He was just bored, keeping a dog for fun.
00:10:06Now that I'm marrying you to the Thorn family, you're not even worth a dog.
00:10:14What's all this noise about?
00:10:21A cursed child like you can't even hold on to your parents' memento?
00:10:25How dare you think you deserve to stand by Caleb's side?
00:10:28Get out of my way.
00:10:29I'm getting that drive back!
00:10:40Caleb, it hurts!
00:10:42Caleb, I just used a useless hard drive to prop up the table, and she tried to kill me.
00:10:48She's jealous I'm marrying you.
00:10:49She wanted me to die in all this glass.
00:10:55I didn't push her.
00:10:56Where's my drive?
00:10:58The only thing my parents left me.
00:11:00Ella, stop it!
00:11:02Are you willing to throw your life away for a piece of junk?
00:11:14Caleb, I got it.
00:11:19Ella, you've really disappointed me.
00:11:20His words completely shattered the fantasy I've held for 16 years.
00:11:24I saw him as a god, my only salvation.
00:11:27But in his eyes, I'm not even worth a single tear from Serena.
00:11:32Get back!
00:11:34It's the only thing they left me for!
00:11:35You dared to hurt someone over a worthless piece of junk?
00:11:38Serena is the future lady of the Thorn family.
00:11:41Your viciousness makes me sick.
00:11:50I'm sorry.
00:11:52I'm sorry.
00:11:56I'm sorry.
00:11:58I'm sorry.
00:11:58I'm sorry.
00:11:59I'm sorry.
00:12:00I'm sorry.
00:12:01I'm sorry.
00:12:03I'm sorry.
00:12:03I'm sorry.
00:12:04I'm sorry.
00:12:20I'm sorry.
00:13:17I'm sorry.
00:13:18I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:13:19Take the money and get out of this penthouse.
00:13:22Once you sign this, I disappear from my sight for good.
00:13:32Caleb, starting today, I will disappear from your world forever.
00:13:47Miss Bennett, are you sure you want to liquidate all of this?
00:13:50This cart-eating sapphire necklace was custom-made by Mr. Thorne as your birthday gift.
00:13:56Pack everything. I'll take below market value if the funds can be transferred today.
00:14:01Understood. I'll arrange it immediately.
00:14:05I once thought all of this was proof of his affection for me.
00:14:09But it turned out to be nothing but a way to keep me caged.
00:14:14Miss Bennett, as you requested, the full liquidation is complete.
00:14:17From the day you were taken into the Thorne family's custody at age 8 until now.
00:14:21This includes your private school and goal endowments, university tuition, living expenses, medical bills,
00:14:26and even the HOO fees for this Manhattan penthouse.
00:14:28Plus the maximum commercial loan interest over these 16 years.
00:14:31The total is 80 million U.S. dollars.
00:14:34Not a single cent is missing, correct?
00:14:36That's right. But Miss Bennett, are you sure you want to do this?
00:14:39There's no legal obligation for you to pay this back.
00:14:42I don't want to owe him anything.
00:14:45This is almost your entire net worth.
00:14:48It doesn't matter.
00:14:49This money is exactly enough to buy out my 16 years.
00:14:54Use every resource in the lab.
00:14:56I want every single bit of data on this drive recovered.
00:14:59No exceptions.
00:15:00Mr. Thorne, this drive suffered catastrophic physical damage and was submerged in ice water.
00:15:05Even with the most advanced quantum recovery equipment, the success rate is extremely low.
00:15:09I don't want to hear about probabilities.
00:15:11If you can't recover the data, your entire team is out of Manhattan tomorrow.
00:15:17Yes, sir. I'll handle it immediately.
00:15:27Sir, these are the final funding documents for Project Absolute Zero,
00:15:30a joint initiative between the Pentagon and NASA.
00:15:32They require your final confirmation and signature.
00:15:36For routine approvals like this, have the VP sign them from now on.
00:16:08Why is Ella's name on this show?
00:16:09Why is Ella's name on this list?
00:16:11Volunteer 01 for the subatomic Creo Chamber.
00:16:13Sign the highest risk one-way agreement.
00:16:15Waving all rights to their life.
00:16:16There's no way this is Miss Bennett.
00:16:25A death waiver.
00:16:26No, this can't be happening.
00:16:29The number you have dialed is switched off.
00:16:31Cancel all my meetings this afternoon.
00:16:33But sir, we're supposed to finalize the wedding venue this afternoon.
00:16:39Caleb, the designer from Paris is waiting downstairs.
00:16:43Come help me pick from these wedding dresses.
00:16:44Move.
00:16:44I don't have time for this right now.
00:16:47Where are you going?
00:16:48We're sending out the invitations tomorrow.
00:16:51Is there anything more important than our wedding?
00:17:01Check.
00:17:02Immediately access the back-end database of the federal recruitment system
00:17:06and re-verify the identity file for Volunteer 01.
00:17:09Yes, sir.
00:17:10Accessing it now.
00:17:12Sir, it's verified.
00:17:14There was an input error on the document.
00:17:16Volunteer 01 is a Hispanic male.
00:17:20The $100,000 has been wired.
00:17:23Received.
00:17:24Which database do you want to access?
00:17:25Federal recruitment system, Volunteer 01.
00:17:28Wipe the original name, change the gender to male,
00:17:30and plug in a random Hispanic background.
00:17:32Full network coverage in two minutes.
00:17:35Caleb, what could possibly make you ignore our wedding guest list like this?
00:17:38It's nothing.
00:17:40I knew it.
00:17:42She'd never have the guts to sign a one-way death agreement like that.
00:17:53Stop it!
00:17:55Cut the power right now!
00:17:56Her brainwaves are hitting the critical threshold!
00:17:59Terminating desensitization stimuli.
00:18:07Ella, are you out of your mind?
00:18:09Not even specially trained soldiers can handle this level of simulated hibernation pain.
00:18:13I signed the agreement.
00:18:16There's no turning back.
00:18:20Please, all volunteers of the Project Absolute Zero, go to Hall 1.
00:18:25The representative of the largest private capital sponsor is about to give a speech.
00:18:29Sponsor?
00:18:29I thought the military was keeping this whole thing classified from the public.
00:18:33Come on.
00:18:35Pentagon clearance isn't something just anyone can get.
00:18:53Caleb, why is he here?
00:18:56Sir, these are the advanced volunteers for the subatomic cryopod program.
00:19:01Subject Zero-One is among them.
00:19:03Zero-One?
00:19:04That is my number.
00:19:05He did not just know I signed that death warrant.
00:19:08He is here to make sure I really disappear from his world for good.
00:19:14I am not here to give you cheap sympathy or empty words of comfort.
00:19:19Thorne Global Group has poured $10 billion into Project Absolute Zero.
00:19:23As far as I am concerned, the one-way agreement you signed is nothing more than a high-risk, high
00:19:26-reward investment.
00:19:28Scientific progress always comes with a cost.
00:19:30As long as the data is valuable, every write-off is an acceptable business experience.
00:19:3416 years by his side, and in his eyes, I am nothing more than a set of cold numbers he
00:19:40can write off whenever he wants.
00:19:46Sir, it's Miss Serena Huntington.
00:19:48The Huntington family is pressing for the final maid-of-honor list for the wedding and security confirmation for the
00:19:53Yacht Party.
00:19:53The Huntington family is pressing for the final maid-of-honor list for the wedding and security confirmation for the
00:20:08wedding and security.
00:20:08Ella, are you okay?
00:20:15I'm fine.
00:20:18Caleb, my life is yours to keep.
00:20:21I hope you and your bride have a very happy wedding.
00:20:26Three days.
00:20:28I cut off all her cards.
00:20:29She can't survive without me.
00:20:30She's definitely holed up in that room, crying her eyes out right now.
00:20:33Include user.
00:20:35Permissions have been cleared.
00:20:36No, that's not possible.
00:20:41You changed the lock code?
00:20:42Ella, you've got some nerve!
00:20:54Ella, get out here!
00:20:57Quit with this childish game!
00:21:12We're even?
00:21:13Ella?
00:21:14Who the hell gave you permission to be even with me?
00:21:27Sorry.
00:21:28The number you have dialed is switched off.
00:21:34Damn it, Ella.
00:21:35You think you can hide somewhere and I won't find you?
00:21:49Caleb, there you are.
00:21:51Look, Vera sent this over personally.
00:21:53You haven't even tried on your tux yet.
00:21:57Take it off.
00:21:59What?
00:22:00I said, take that disgusting dress off.
00:22:03The wedding's off.
00:22:04Are you insane?
00:22:06Every media outlet in New York is waiting for the ceremony tomorrow.
00:22:10Both our family's stocks jumped 10 points off this merger and you're saying it's off now?
00:22:16Don't make me say it twice.
00:22:17Ella's gone.
00:22:19Until I find her, no one's walking through the doors of the Thorn Estate as my wife.
00:22:27Caleb, you're humiliating me for that little part!
00:22:45Who the hell gave you permission to move anything in here?
00:22:48Where's the owner?
00:22:49Sir, we're just doing our job.
00:22:51Hey man, who are you looking for?
00:22:53Who the hell are you?
00:22:54This house belongs to Ella Bennett.
00:22:56What gives you the right to live here?
00:22:59Chill out!
00:23:00I bought this place through a licensed agency.
00:23:03I'm the legal owner now.
00:23:04Mr. Thorn!
00:23:06Please let go.
00:23:07This is all completely legal.
00:23:09You're the realtor for this property.
00:23:10Who gave you the balls to sell it?
00:23:12It was Mrs. Ella Bennett herself, sir.
00:23:14She came into the office a week ago and signed all the paperwork personally.
00:23:18Her only condition was that we sell it 20% below market value,
00:23:21but the full cash amount had to hit her account within 24 hours.
00:23:50The whole of Manhattan can be your home,
00:23:53as long as you stay where I can see you.
00:24:02What else did she sell?
00:24:03Mrs. Bennett also liquidated all the vehicles in her name,
00:24:07as well as her holdings in the charitable foundation.
00:24:12Did she say anything else to you?
00:24:14She said...
00:24:17She said she was going away,
00:24:18and everything she needed for the rest of her life fit in a single envelope.
00:24:22All the cash she got from the sales went into that check she wrote to you, sir.
00:24:26She's planned this all along.
00:24:28She was planning to leave me this whole time.
00:24:30Track Ella Bennett's location right now.
00:24:32I don't care what it costs.
00:24:34Find her!
00:24:57Caleb, I want to join the research my parents never got to finish.
00:25:03I said no.
00:25:05Remember, Ella?
00:25:06You don't go anywhere without my permission.
00:25:08You stay right here with me.
00:25:15Ella, you lied to me!
00:25:34Research sponsorship.
00:25:39I signed my name on this damn thing myself.
00:25:42I signed my name on this damn thing myself.
00:25:44I signed my name on this damn thing myself.
00:25:49This is a research project application.
00:25:52I need my guardian's signature.
00:25:54Another garbage grant application, Ella?
00:25:56Can you do anything besides leech off me for money?
00:25:59This is the last time.
00:26:01It better be.
00:26:09Take the money and get out of this penthouse.
00:26:12Once you sign this,
00:26:14disappear from my site for good.
00:26:18Ella, you lied to me!
00:26:25Mark, lock down every subatomic lab in Manhattan.
00:26:28Now.
00:26:29Sir, the military's already taken control.
00:26:31We can't stop them.
00:26:52Ella, give me a glass of water.
00:27:00The number you have dialed is not in service.
00:27:17Did you find Ella?
00:27:20No, sir.
00:27:21I spend tens of millions a year on you and your team.
00:27:24And you're telling me you can't find one single person.
00:27:27It's Bennett's data.
00:27:28It's been wiped.
00:27:29Her social security number, bank accounts, medical records, access logs, even her cloud photos.
00:27:35Everything's gone.
00:27:42Ella, you think wiping yourself off the map means I won't find you?
00:27:45I'm going to hunt you down myself and bring you back.
00:27:54Sir, we've sorted through over 3,000 hours of footage and we still haven't found any sign of Ms. Bennett.
00:28:00Then sort through 30,000.
00:28:02I don't care if we have to turn over every inch of Manhattan, you will find her!
00:28:08Wait!
00:28:09Rewind three seconds.
00:28:10Bottom left corner.
00:28:19Found you.
00:28:20Bad girls get punished, you know.
00:28:26Remember this.
00:28:28In Manhattan, you're nothing but my property.
00:28:32Step out a line and you get punished.
00:28:36I'll be good, Daddy.
00:28:39I promise.
00:28:46Ella, this little runaway game of yours, it's over.
00:29:03You're a rich man.
00:29:04Adenos.
00:29:20That's what I'll call you.
00:29:22Assuming you can drive everything off.
00:29:28Ella, get out here and face me!
00:29:34On your knees, hands behind your head.
00:29:36Where's Ella?
00:29:37I need to see Ella Bennett!
00:29:46Ella!
00:29:47Give her back to me!
00:29:49Give me my Ella back!
00:30:00Mr. Thorne, you signed this document last week.
00:30:03Under this agreement, this facility is designated as top secret federal restricted land.
00:30:08You are not authorized to enter.
00:30:10I signed a research sponsorship.
00:30:12My Ella is in there.
00:30:13Let her out!
00:30:14Ella, you get out here right now!
00:30:16How dare you!
00:30:18How dare you sign up for this death trap behind my back!
00:30:26Daddy, I want to restart my parents' Project Absolute Zero Research to finish what they started.
00:30:35That garbage your parents were working on?
00:30:37It's worthless.
00:30:39There's no point to any of it.
00:30:40Daddy, I...
00:30:41I'm warning you, you don't touch that research without my permission.
00:30:47Okay, Daddy.
00:30:48I'll listen.
00:30:50Get off me!
00:30:53Ella!
00:30:54Look at me!
00:30:55I'm ordering you to turn around!
00:31:07Sir, we pulled Ms. Bennett's file.
00:31:09We had to bypass the board's standard review and use security privileges to get this data.
00:31:24What the hell does citizenship revocation mean?
00:31:27According to the experimental brief we obtained, the program requires volunteers to enter the subatomic cryopod.
00:31:32Once the procedure starts, the volunteer's metabolic functions will drop to a complete stamp still.
00:31:36Legally speaking, she will be declared deceased.
00:31:39Get the jet ready!
00:31:41I will not let her go through with this!
00:31:53Caleb, in such a rush to see your little pet, don't forget I'm your fiancé.
00:31:59Get out of my way, Serena.
00:32:00I won't warn you twice.
00:32:03Per the Prienogil Agreement's default close, if you leave right now, Thorn Global Group's stock will plummet faster than you
00:32:09can fathom.
00:32:10My family will pull all funding immediately, and that precious business empire of yours will crumble to dust in an
00:32:16instant.
00:32:25Take off!
00:32:26Take off!
00:32:27Right now!
00:32:30Sir, Houston's been hit by a massive storm.
00:32:33Houston airspace is closed.
00:32:35A no-fly order has been issued.
00:32:37All private routes to and from the space base are cancelled indefinitely.
00:32:42God damn it!
00:32:51Step back, Mr. Thorn.
00:32:52This is federal military restricted property.
00:32:54No entry is permitted.
00:32:55Move!
00:32:56Get Ella Bennett out here right now.
00:32:58I'm her legal guardian.
00:33:00Per the Federal Asset Protection Agreement, Dr. Bennett is now classified as National Scientific Research Property.
00:33:05She has signed on to Project Absolute Zero, and no one has the right to interfere.
00:33:10Property!
00:33:11I raised her for 16 years!
00:33:13Everything she is, everything she has is mine!
00:33:16You dare tell me I have no rights!
00:33:19Remember this!
00:33:20You're my most perfect investment.
00:33:22Everything you are is mine.
00:33:24Caleb, I'm yours.
00:33:26I'll never leave you.
00:33:30Daddy, please.
00:33:32Say master.
00:33:33I'll tear this whole facility down if I have to.
00:33:35I'm taking her with me today.
00:33:40You can't take her anymore, Caleb.
00:33:45Elliot, you're just her old college classmate.
00:33:47What makes you think you can stop me?
00:33:48Open this gate.
00:33:49Give my girl back.
00:33:52Your girl.
00:33:53She's a brilliant biophysics PhD, not your personal pet to lock away.
00:33:57I'm her sugar daddy.
00:33:58I'm the one who gave her every luxury she's ever had.
00:34:02Without me, she would have died with her parents when she was eight years old.
00:34:05Tell her to get out here and see me!
00:34:07You drove all the way across the country here throwing a fit.
00:34:10Are you here as the daddy who bought her life,
00:34:13or as a man who lost the only woman he's ever loved?
00:34:20Next time you dare talk to another man behind my back,
00:34:23this punishment will be the least of your worries.
00:34:27Caleb, what am I to you, really?
00:34:30What is she to you, Caleb?
00:34:32I, I...
00:34:36What is she to you?
00:34:41I...
00:34:44Caleb.
00:34:46I don't want to be your secret mistress locked away in a penthouse anymore.
00:34:49I want to stand by your side, in the light.
00:34:53When you get that official offer from the Ivy League...
00:34:55I'll get it!
00:34:56You have to keep your promise!
00:35:00I'm her guardian.
00:35:02I can't just stand by and watch her die.
00:35:05She's already in the near-absolute-zero subatomic scanning pod.
00:35:08Her vital signs are frozen in stasis forever.
00:35:12How could it happen so fast?
00:35:13This is how she's cutting every last tie to you, Caleb.
00:35:16You've lost her.
00:35:18Forever.
00:35:33The agents won't hold him off for long.
00:35:35The base already received a legal notice from Thorn Global Group.
00:35:39This is the last transatlantic flight out tonight.
00:35:42You can still back out of the experiment.
00:35:44You don't have to throw your life away to get back at a madman.
00:35:48Geneva?
00:35:49To go be another socialite in a couture gown there?
00:35:52You can start over.
00:35:54Elliot, my soul died on my 24th birthday.
00:36:11I don't care what you have to do.
00:36:13I want Project Absolute Zero's funding dried up in five minutes.
00:36:16Sir, this is a federal government-backed project.
00:36:19Then buy up every last debt this lab owes.
00:36:22Cut their power.
00:36:24Freeze every single research account.
00:36:25If she wants to lock herself in that freezer, I'll smash it to pieces.
00:36:30No one takes her from me.
00:36:32Not even death.
00:36:38Sir, we ran it all down.
00:36:40Ms. Bennett sold every property, every piece of jewelry you ever gave her,
00:36:45including that vintage Pathé Firape watch.
00:36:50She sold that watch?
00:36:53Yes, sir.
00:36:55She put all the cash from the sales into an anonymous trust in your name.
00:36:59The entire sum has been donated to the families of the victims
00:37:02from the lab explosion at Thorn Global Group.
00:37:05Sixteen years ago.
00:37:07She gave everything back.
00:37:09Every last thing.
00:37:10Used it to sever the final thread between us.
00:37:16Caleb!
00:37:17What the hell is going on?
00:37:19The designer has been waiting for two hours.
00:37:22Where the hell is Ella?
00:37:23She bailed on the bridesmaid fitting.
00:37:25And I look like a fool.
00:37:26You froze her card, so go find her and make her whole train.
00:37:30Dress?
00:37:32Looking like a fool?
00:37:39Merger?
00:37:40Orders?
00:37:41I threw the only woman I've ever loved into a grave for this meaningless garbage.
00:37:46Let go of me.
00:37:48Your disgusting face isn't worth a single hair on her head.
00:37:54Have you lost your mind?
00:37:56I'm your fiancé.
00:37:57How dare you treat me like this?
00:37:59Get out.
00:38:00The engagement's off.
00:38:01I don't want to see your face ever again.
00:38:05Get the finance team in here.
00:38:07Mr. Thorn, what are you planning?
00:38:09Sell every share in the group.
00:38:10Liquidate every asset to my name.
00:38:12I'm buying the lab.
00:38:14I want full control of that cryopod.
00:38:17You can't run from me, Ella.
00:38:18I told you.
00:38:20Without my permission, even death can't take you away from me.
00:38:30Mr. Thorn, today's proceedings are closed.
00:38:33Only invited scientific delegates and official media are permitted entry.
00:38:38Closed?
00:38:4070% of the liquid helium cooling patents used in Project Absolute Zero belong to Thorn Global Group.
00:38:47I'm here as the lead sponsor and patent holder to inspect my assets.
00:38:53But Dr. Hayes specifically instructed...
00:38:54Listen to me.
00:38:56I don't care what Hayes said.
00:38:58Move.
00:39:00Or in five minutes, my legal team will file a mandatory injunction with the federal court
00:39:05and cut the power to the entire core facility.
00:39:25Please don't.
00:39:31Good afternoon.
00:39:32Today, Project Absolute Zero officially enters its live testing phase.
00:39:38As the first test subject for the deep cryo hibernation pod,
00:39:42I'd like to deliver my final project briefing here.
00:39:45I chose this project to carry on my parents' legacy in biophysics.
00:39:50The experimental data they left unfinished will be continued by me when I wake.
00:39:56Thank you to NASCA for the equipment support and to my mentor, Dr. Arthur.
00:40:04A special thank you to researcher Elliot Hayes.
00:40:08I never would have made it this far without you.
00:40:12I have cut every last tie to my past.
00:40:15My research and this body belong to the future.
00:40:19Briefing complete.
00:40:34Mr. Thorne, don't move.
00:40:40This facility is under the jurisdiction of the Department of Defense.
00:40:45Move.
00:40:46She's mine.
00:40:48You have no right to take her from me.
00:40:50Ella!
00:40:51Look at me!
00:40:53The wedding's off!
00:40:54Don't go in there!
00:41:01Come home with me.
00:41:03Daddy will take you away anything you want.
00:41:06Happy wedding, Daddy.
00:41:11Once this locks in, it's 20 years.
00:41:14Are you sure about this?
00:41:16Start it.
00:41:21Ella!
00:41:23Ella!
00:41:28Sir, we found out what happened.
00:41:30The reason the lab was able to push through the experiment despite your freeze order is
00:41:35because someone filed federal approval on their behalf.
00:41:38Who?
00:41:39It was Miss Serena Huntington.
00:41:40She used her family's political connections to greenlight the lab.
00:41:44Roll the cameras.
00:41:47Mr. Thorne is simply suffering from exhaustion from the recent merger.
00:41:50He's resting up well.
00:41:52Our engagement ceremony will proceed as scheduled.
00:41:55Get out!
00:41:56The press is right outside.
00:41:58If you throw a fit now, the group's stock will crash.
00:42:02Let every reporter outside in here.
00:42:04Now!
00:42:06I'm only here to announce two things today.
00:42:15First, the engagement is off.
00:42:17Effective immediately, Thorne Global Group is severing all business ties with the Huntington family.
00:42:22Second, I will be liquidating my entire personal stake in the company.
00:42:26With all proceeds going to the continued research of Project Absolute Zero.
00:42:34Caleb!
00:42:35The default penalties for this manateral breach are astronomical!
00:42:40Save your breath.
00:42:42My legal team submitted all evidence of the Huntington family's offshore fund manipulation to the SEC half an hour ago.
00:42:49The FBI should be raiding your father's office right about now.
00:42:52You can worry about the default penalties when you're paying your family's legal fees.
00:42:55What? Have you lost your mind?
00:42:58You're going to take down two entire conglomerates for that woman?
00:43:01You're the one who locked her in that pod.
00:43:03I locked her in there?
00:43:04Who are you trying to fool with this lovesick act, Caleb?
00:43:07Did I force her to sign that agreement?
00:43:09Was I the one who, in front of all of New York's high society,
00:43:13shoved that peanut butter salad down her throat and watched her choke and go into an anaphylactic shock?
00:43:18You treated her like a dog you could kick around whenever you wanted.
00:43:21You're the one who drove her to this.
00:43:23She'd rather freeze herself solid than look at you ever again.
00:43:27Don't pin this on me, Caleb.
00:43:29You know better than anyone.
00:43:30The person she hates most in this world is you.
00:43:33Get out!
00:43:34All of you!
00:43:35Get out!
00:43:44Mr. Thorne, if we move forward with this liquidation,
00:43:47the 60-year legacy of Thorne Global Gleam will be gone in an instant.
00:43:51This is suicide!
00:43:53I want cash.
00:43:54Nothing else.
00:43:56Have you lost your mind, Caleb?
00:43:57You are going to dissolve the entire conglomerate for this dead-end cryo project?
00:44:00As far as I am concerned, this entire conglomerate is not worth a single breath of liquid nitrogen for her.
00:44:06Liquidate every factory, every patent.
00:44:09I want the cash in my account by sundown.
00:44:13Mr. Thorne, this the sum is enough to buy three space agencies.
00:44:17Effective immediately, Ms. Bennett cryopod is under exclusive monitoring protocols.
00:44:21Exclusive.
00:44:22That means no one gets near her but me.
00:44:25No exceptions.
00:44:26Yes, sir.
00:44:27All personnel, including Dr. Hayes,
00:44:30are prohibited from entering a five-mile radius of the monitoring station
00:44:33without your explicit authorization.
00:44:40See, Ella?
00:44:42I told you.
00:44:44You cannot run from me without my permission.
00:45:10Ella.
00:45:16Kayla.
00:45:18It hurts.
00:45:19Be a good girl.
00:45:22Oh, I know.
00:45:24Caleb, I only have you.
00:45:28Daddy, please.
00:45:29Don't leave me.
00:45:31Never leave me.
00:45:38I will never leave you.
00:45:40You hear me?
00:45:41Not until the day I die.
00:45:43You are stuck with me.
00:45:45For the rest of your life!
00:45:49It is okay.
00:45:50You sleep.
00:45:52I am not going anywhere.
00:45:55I am right here, waiting for you.
00:46:19You say that snow will bury us all, but I think it's just the beginning.
00:46:30Shit!
00:46:42Open!
00:46:43God dammit, open!
00:46:48She can't die!
00:47:00You're mine. No one can take you from me.
00:47:08Mr. Thorne, this violates every ethical review. Buying the first right of custody over a Tessa subject, it makes her
00:47:16your personal property.
00:47:17My foundation will fund this project in full, indefinitely.
00:47:25On one condition, only I can to wake her up.
00:47:29Even if she's nothing but a corpse, she's my corpse.
00:47:46Mom. Dad.

00:49:05Dad.
00:49:25Don't go! Take me with you!
00:49:31Go back, Ella. Finish Project Dusk Homecoming.
00:49:35Clear your name.
00:49:48I'm still here.
00:49:59Ella, I can't hold on much longer.
00:50:22No! You cannot leave me!
00:50:47Ella Bennett. We did it. Welcome to 20 years later.
00:50:58Elliot.
00:50:59I am here.
00:51:00I want to start new research. I am not wasting a single second on the past.
00:51:06I want to start new research. I am not wasting a single second on the past.
00:51:37The board wants to see the data by Friday.
00:51:39I'm on it.
00:51:43I saw the report.
00:51:48Caleb, I don't want to be your secret mistress locked away in a penthouse anymore.
00:51:51I want to stand by your side, in the light.
00:51:55Today's my 24th birthday.
00:51:57I got the faculty offer in Fair Kitsch.
00:52:01You said once I had it, you'd consider us...
00:52:05I spent millions raising you. And this is how you repay me? With this filthy little scheme?
00:52:10I want to start new research. I want to do my life. I'm not a big deal safe for you.
00:52:40And this is how you do it. And this was the first day of the year. And this was the
00:52:40first day of the year I was working on the past.
00:52:47What's wrong with this janitor? Is he sick?
00:52:50He's coughing up blood, looks like.
00:52:56Are you alright? You should go to the infirmary.
00:53:07These hands are only for painting me, or pleasing me.
00:53:16Daddy, I'm not here.
00:53:19Leave him be, Ella. He's probably scared.
00:53:25Come on, we're gonna be late for the meeting.
00:53:29I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
00:53:36If we plug this set of variables into the absolute zero field,
00:53:40the underlying code logic it gets completely rewritten.
00:53:43Ellicott, we were right about the original direction of the deduction.
00:53:47Your intuition is incredible, Ella.
00:53:49Once we fill in this data, we can prove the explosion all those years ago was deliberate sabotage.
00:54:19You bought the entire Alaska experimental base through dozens of shell companies.
00:54:25You sold off every share of Thorpe Global Group, spent every last dime to keep her life support running,
00:54:31the once untouchable king of Wall Street, now hiding in a janitor's closet mopping her floors?
00:54:37Why are you hiding from her, Caleb?
00:54:39Don't tell her.
00:54:40You spent 20 years of your life for this, just to be a janitor?
00:54:43No.
00:54:47Just let her think I'm still in Manhattan, living the high life with Serena.
00:54:52Please, don't tell her.
00:54:54Look at me now, Elliot.
00:54:56I'll only sicken her like this.
00:54:58Please...
00:55:00Please...
00:55:02Please...
00:55:03Please...
00:55:04...
00:55:04...
00:55:30Remember this solution.
00:55:39Who wrote this?
00:55:40The deduction is flawless.
00:55:42I'm a coward.
00:55:44What?
00:55:45Forget it.
00:55:45We'll redo it with our own data.
00:56:08Mrs. Bennett, this is everything left in Mr. Thorne's name.
00:56:12He signed over full control of all of it to you.
00:56:15Everything left?
00:56:15The once king of Wall Street is playing the pity card with this cheap trick now?
00:56:19Sirs, his health is in terrible shape.
00:56:21He only hopes you'll accept this.
00:56:23It's all he has left to give you.
00:56:28Go back and tell him this.
00:56:31He can't buy my forgiveness with money.
00:56:34Never.
00:56:46Serena Huntington?
00:56:50Ella Bennett, 20 whole years, and you haven't aged a day.
00:56:56How the hell is that fair?
00:56:58What happened to the Huntington family princess?
00:57:01Didn't Caleb get you a good stylist?
00:57:04Caleb?
00:57:05You actually thought he married me?
00:57:08Let go of me.
00:57:08You're drunk.
00:57:09The second you stepped into that cryopod, that lunatic tore up the engagement in front of everyone.
00:57:15He burned every bridge with the Huntington family.
00:57:18He sold off every core share of Thornt Global, even mortgaged the Hampton estate.
00:57:22Hored every last cent into that goddamned cryo project.
00:57:25He went bankrupt, ended up half paralyzed, turned into a no-gold dog just to keep your vitals going.
00:57:30What are you so proud of, Ella?
00:57:32You think you ever paid him back?
00:57:33Caleb?
00:57:51Mr. Thorne.
00:57:56Mr. Thorne.
00:57:57Ella's attachment to you has gone far beyond normal bounds.
00:58:00This is a classic case of Stockholm Syndrome.
00:58:03I gave her the best of everything Manhattan has to offer.
00:58:05But you have also stripped her of the chance to grow as an independent person.
00:58:08If you do not push her away, cut off this toxic dynamic, she will never be anything more than your
00:58:13accessories.
00:58:14You have to be the villain.
00:58:15You have to shatter every last fantasy she has about you.
00:58:26So that is what this was.
00:58:34Caleb Thorne.
00:58:36That engagement was just a business deal between me and Caleb.
00:58:41He bailed my family out of financial ruin.
00:58:44And I helped him break your heart for good.
00:58:46That peanut butter salad wasn't Caleb's doing.
00:58:49It was all a mistake.
00:59:05Open the archives.
00:59:07Now!
00:59:08You'll regret seeing this, Ella.
00:59:09I said open it!
00:59:10I want to see everything Caleb left behind.
00:59:12All of it!
00:59:23It's not possible.
00:59:26They were all supposed to be gone.
00:59:30Stop it!
00:59:32Open!
00:59:34God damn it, open!
00:59:38She can't die!
00:59:54Why?
00:59:56Why didn't you let me die 20 years ago?!
01:00:04Why did you take away my right to even hate you?!
01:00:09I can't do this.
01:00:12I can't do this.
01:00:16Hello?
01:00:26What is this?
01:00:29Trust fund beneficiary change?
01:00:32Manhattan deed?
01:00:3420 years.
01:00:38But that's the day I woke up.
01:00:41Today's my 24th birthday.
01:00:44I got the faculty offer from Fairkitch.
01:00:47You said once I had it, you'd consider us...
01:00:52I spent millions raising you.
01:00:54And this is how you repay me?
01:00:55With this filthy little scheme?
01:00:57I just love you, Caleb.
01:00:58Love?
01:00:59You're nothing but a pet I pay to keep around.
01:01:02You read a few books,
01:01:03and you actually think you can climb your master's bed?
01:01:11You think these worthless pieces of paper
01:01:14can make up
01:01:16for what you did to me?
01:01:30No.
01:01:32This isn't real.
01:01:37I'll wake you up.
01:01:40I swear I will.
01:01:46I'm sorry, Ella.
01:01:48I spent the gift money on a backup power supply for your pod.
01:01:51Short 3K for maintenance today.
01:01:53Sold the watch.
01:01:55You idiot!
01:01:56You think giving me everything will make me forgive you?
01:02:02Hide well, Daddy.
01:02:04I'm coming for you.
01:02:09Ms. Bennett, sign here,
01:02:12and the experimental base Mr. Thocker owns
01:02:14will be legally transferred to you.
01:02:23Congratulations, Ms. Bennett.
01:02:25You are now the youngest tycoon in New York.
01:02:34Mrs. Bennett, Mr. Thorne told me not to say anything,
01:02:37but I have to.
01:02:38He did not leave because he wanted to.
01:02:40He just, he did not know how to face you 24 and perfect
01:02:43with his broken, old, paralyzed body.
01:02:52Genius astrophysicist Ella Bennett,
01:02:54who was frozen for 20 years,
01:02:55has announced her return to the public eye.
01:02:58Wall Street sources say
01:02:59she has inherited a mysterious fortune,
01:03:01making her New York Sueist financial palichore.
01:03:04Food is here.
01:03:05Just soup today.
01:03:09Ella Bennett.
01:03:28This is all Daddy has left to give you.
01:03:37Fly free, Kitty.
01:03:39Don't let these rotting bones
01:03:41sully your eyes.
01:03:50It is right here, ma'am.
01:03:52Get lost.
01:04:02Who told you to come here?
01:04:05Get out!
01:04:14Go away.
01:04:17Don't look.
01:04:20Stop it.
01:04:22Where did you think you'd run to, Caleb?
01:04:24You spent 20 years and every last cent
01:04:26to trap me in this body.
01:04:28Now you think you can just walk away?
01:04:30I have nothing left.
01:04:34You still have your life.
01:04:37You're crazy.
01:04:39You've lost your mind.
01:04:45You don't get to die without my permission.
01:04:49Get Mr. Thorne in the car.
01:04:51Gentle.
01:04:52Don't hurt his legs.
01:04:53Ella Bennett,
01:04:55you can't do this.
01:04:58Don't be scared, Daddy.
01:05:01From today on,
01:05:02I'm the one taking care of you.
01:05:13What the hell is this?
01:05:15You're awake.
01:05:19Get that off.
01:05:21I don't need it.
01:05:24I don't need it.
01:05:25I don't need it.
01:05:29Don't bother fighting it.
01:05:31From now on,
01:05:33I decide everything about you.
01:05:40Ella.
01:05:41Look at me.
01:05:43You don't get to look away in this room.
01:05:47What are you hiding from?
01:05:49No.
01:05:51You can't handle this already?
01:05:54I...
01:05:57Eyes closed.
01:06:01What are you...
01:06:03You didn't actually think
01:06:05I wanted your old broken body,
01:06:07did you, Caleb?
01:06:09Don't touch me.
01:06:24No.
01:06:26No.
01:06:34Hello, Caleb.
01:06:35Get out.
01:06:37Should I call the nurse in?
01:06:38No.
01:06:39Wait for me outside.
01:06:41Got it.
01:06:46What are you throwing a fit about?
01:06:49Why did you bring him here?
01:06:51I'm not even dead yet,
01:06:53and you're already rushing
01:06:55to bring another man
01:06:56into our...
01:06:57home!
01:07:01Are you jealous?
01:07:03I'm not.
01:07:04Be with whoever you want.
01:07:05I don't care.
01:07:11Elliot's staying the night.
01:07:13Remember what you said
01:07:14and keep quiet.
01:07:16Elliot's staying the night.
01:07:32No.
01:07:34She is mine.
01:07:35And mine alone!
01:07:43What?
01:07:44I know I am a sinner.
01:07:46All those years ago,
01:07:48I used my power and my money
01:07:50to lure that innocent girl in.
01:07:52I ruined her.
01:07:55But...
01:07:56I cannot bring myself
01:07:58to wish her happiness.
01:08:00I cannot stand to watch her
01:08:02walk away to another man.
01:08:04I want to drag her back
01:08:05into this dark room with me,
01:08:08even if I am nothing
01:08:09but a broken old man now.
01:08:14Come back.
01:08:21Was that convincing enough for you?
01:08:24Perfect.
01:08:25He is probably losing
01:08:27his mind in there right now.
01:08:31You know he does not
01:08:32have much time left.
01:08:33Why are you torturing him
01:08:34like this?
01:08:35Because torture
01:08:36is the only way
01:08:37he ever taught me
01:08:38to show love.
01:08:40Only when he lets go
01:08:41of that stubborn pride of his
01:08:42can we ever have
01:08:43anything real between us.
01:08:50Mr. Thorne,
01:08:51these are the medical
01:08:52decision-making power
01:08:53and full guardianship documents.
01:08:55Once you sign,
01:08:56every second of the rest
01:08:58of your life,
01:08:58even the right to live
01:09:00or die,
01:09:01will belong to Mrs. Bennett.
01:09:02I'm all yours now.
01:09:05Do whatever you want
01:09:06to get your revenge.
01:09:07I'll take it all.
01:09:09Everyone out.
01:09:20If only you'd
01:09:21surrendered sooner,
01:09:23Daddy.
01:09:25Yeah.
01:09:26I surrender.
01:09:28I surrender.
01:09:33Look.
01:09:33It's the same view
01:09:34we had from the penthouse
01:09:35over Central Park.
01:09:37Time stood still there,
01:09:38just like the 20 years
01:09:39I waited for you.
01:09:54What are you looking at?
01:09:57Daddy,
01:09:57I'm looking at Manhattan.
01:09:58It's so bright at night.
01:10:03Every light in Manhattan
01:10:05will shine for you,
01:10:06baby girl.
01:10:18When Elik looks at you,
01:10:19I want him gone.
01:10:21You can't even stand up
01:10:22on your own.
01:10:23How are you going
01:10:24to make him disappear?
01:10:26I know this body's failing me,
01:10:30but when I see him touch you,
01:10:32it feels like there's a fire
01:10:34burning in my chest.
01:10:38I'm jealous of every man
01:10:40that gets to hold you.
01:10:42Hell,
01:10:42I'm even jealous
01:10:43of the wind outside
01:10:44because it gets to touch you.
01:10:47So tell me now,
01:10:49was it worth it?
01:10:51Trading 20 years of your life
01:10:53and every last cent
01:10:54you had to wake me up?
01:10:56Worth it.
01:10:57I told you,
01:10:58no one takes you from me
01:10:59without my permission.
01:11:05It's still beating.
01:11:08Every beat is a reminder
01:11:09that you're a sinner.
01:11:11Then let this sinner
01:11:12rot in your hell
01:11:13for eternity.
01:11:16Even when it stops beating,
01:11:18you don't get to run.
01:11:20Your ashes are going to sit
01:11:22on my nightstand.
01:11:24You owe me a debt
01:11:25and you're going to pay it
01:11:27with your soul.
01:11:29Okay.
01:11:31My life,
01:11:32my soul,
01:11:33it's all yours.
01:11:50Are you cold?
01:11:51No.
01:11:59You shouldn't have brought me here.
01:12:02Everyone's staring at you
01:12:03carrying a paralyzed old man.
01:12:05Then let them stare.
01:12:06Let them see.
01:12:09When you were 12,
01:12:10I brought you here.
01:12:11You stared at the
01:12:13cotton candy stand
01:12:13for ages.
01:12:15You bought the whole cart
01:12:17but wouldn't let me
01:12:17have a single bite.
01:12:19I've always been
01:12:20a controlling bastard.
01:12:23It's too late
01:12:24to admit that now.
01:12:30What did the doctor
01:12:31say to you?
01:12:32Why'd you bring me
01:12:33out here today?
01:12:34The doctor said
01:12:35your vitals are stable.
01:12:37Okay.
01:12:38I'll listen to you always.
01:12:39Back then,
01:12:40I always walked ahead
01:12:42handling business.
01:12:43And I always followed
01:12:44three steps behind you.
01:12:46You don't have to
01:12:47chase my shadow
01:12:48anymore.
01:12:50You're not going
01:12:51anywhere, Caleb.
01:12:58On your 18th birthday,
01:12:59you talked back to me.
01:13:00So I locked you
01:13:01in the penthouse
01:13:02for three days.
01:13:03After that,
01:13:04I sent my assistant here
01:13:05to pick out the biggest
01:13:06pink diamond they had
01:13:07for you.
01:13:08You always tried to
01:13:09shut me up with checks
01:13:10and jewelry.
01:13:11Bought my silence
01:13:12with money.
01:13:13Back then,
01:13:14I didn't know
01:13:15how to keep you.
01:13:17All I knew
01:13:18how to do
01:13:18was the stupidest,
01:13:19most hurtful
01:13:20thing possible.
01:13:22Wait here for me.
01:13:32Ella, get up.
01:13:33Ella, what are you doing?
01:13:35Get up.
01:13:36I'm a broken old man.
01:13:39I can't give you
01:13:40a future.
01:13:41Once you locked me up
01:13:42with your money,
01:13:43now I'm locking your soul
01:13:44up with this ring.
01:13:49You owe me 20 years.
01:13:51You can never pay it back
01:13:52in this lifetime.
01:13:54This ring
01:13:55is a mark.
01:13:56Even when you die,
01:13:57your soul
01:13:58is mine.
01:14:03Caleb,
01:14:05you're my only home.
01:14:13Mr. Thorne,
01:14:14this is the subatomic
01:14:15Decian authorization
01:14:16you requested.
01:14:17Once activated,
01:14:18your remains will be
01:14:18converted into energy
01:14:19particles of specific
01:14:20wavelength,
01:14:21dispersed into the
01:14:22universe.
01:14:23I'm sorry.
01:14:32Ella.
01:14:34I'm here.
01:14:36The doctor said
01:14:37hearing is the last
01:14:38sense to go
01:14:39when you die.
01:14:41I'll keep talking
01:14:42to you right here
01:14:44until you can't
01:14:45hear me anymore.
01:14:50I trapped you here
01:14:52and now I'm
01:14:53running away first.
01:14:58You signed the
01:14:59papers.
01:15:00You can't run away.
01:15:04I'm going to become
01:15:05a wavelength now.
01:15:06So when the wind
01:15:07blows,
01:15:08when the snow
01:15:08falls,
01:15:09when you look up
01:15:09at the night sky,
01:15:11that'll be me
01:15:12watching over you.
01:15:14You'll always be
01:15:15with me.
01:15:16No matter what
01:15:17form you take,
01:15:17you'll always be
01:15:18mine.
01:15:19I love you.
01:15:21Caleb loves
01:15:22Ella.
01:15:44May he rest in
01:15:45peace.
01:15:46Goodbye, Caleb.
01:15:48We'll miss you.
01:15:51I love you.
01:15:57Miss Bennett,
01:15:58the funeral's
01:15:58over.
01:15:59The press is
01:16:00all outside
01:16:01and the Thorne
01:16:02Global Board
01:16:02is expecting you
01:16:03to show up soon
01:16:04to stabilize
01:16:04the stock price.
01:16:06Let them wait.
01:16:08Your clothes
01:16:08are soaked through.
01:16:09Before he passed,
01:16:11Mr. Thorne told me
01:16:12to take care of you
01:16:13no matter what.
01:16:14He's dead.
01:16:16You don't have
01:16:17to follow his
01:16:18orders anymore.
01:16:20But...
01:16:21Take the umbrella
01:16:22and leave.
01:16:32You think dying
01:16:33means I can't
01:16:34find you anymore?
01:16:51You think dying
01:16:52means I can't find
01:16:59I can't believe it.
01:17:01How did you...
01:17:14Ella...
01:17:15If you are reading
01:17:16this...
01:17:17I am dead
01:17:18and you are awake.
01:17:20That night
01:17:20at the dinner party,
01:17:21watching you choke
01:17:22and collapse,
01:17:23that was the worst
01:17:24mistake of my life.
01:17:25But I do not regret it.
01:17:27You had the same fire
01:17:28in your eyes
01:17:28as your parents.
01:17:29You did not deserve
01:17:30to be locked up
01:17:31in a penthouse
01:17:32in Manhattan.
01:17:32A pet that only
01:17:33survived by clinging
01:17:34to me.
01:17:35If pushing you away
01:17:36was the only way
01:17:37to save you,
01:17:39I would be the devil
01:17:40a thousand times over.
01:17:45Go finish the work
01:17:47your parents started.
01:17:48That is where
01:17:49your soul belongs.
01:17:51Do not look back.
01:17:53I will be with you
01:17:54always,
01:17:55in the subatomic
01:17:57particles,
01:17:58forever by your side.
01:18:00The letter was
01:18:01written in code,
01:18:02a language only
01:18:04the two of them
01:18:04could understand.
01:18:05It was a desperate
01:18:07plea for help,
01:18:08a last-ditch effort
01:18:09to save the woman
01:18:10he loved.
01:18:13I just...
01:18:15I can't do this alone.
01:18:28This is your fourth
01:18:29all-nighter in a row.
01:18:30I've put all of
01:18:31Caleb's secret funding
01:18:32and unpublished patents
01:18:33up as collateral
01:18:33for this project.
01:18:34The money's burning fast.
01:18:35We need results
01:18:36before the board stages
01:18:37echo.
01:18:37The subatomic noise data
01:18:39collected over those
01:18:3920 years in crypto
01:18:40is massive.
01:18:41Reverse engineering
01:18:42the logical flaws
01:18:42in the explosion
01:18:4316 years ago
01:18:44is going to take
01:18:44a long time to compute.
01:18:45We keep missing
01:18:460.02% on the critical value
01:18:48for the high-energy
01:18:49particle stabilization
01:18:50experiment.
01:18:51That's the exact same
01:18:52number my parents
01:18:53got stuck on 16 years ago.
01:18:54There's a flaw
01:18:55in the base logic.
01:18:56Go sleep in the lounge
01:18:57for two hours.
01:18:58I'll watch the data.
01:19:00No.
01:19:01This is my work.
01:19:03You go cross-check
01:19:03the fluctuation frequency
01:19:05on the B-group perimeter.
01:19:06I'll build the core model.
01:19:07Got it.
01:19:08Call me if anything comes up.
01:19:23My god.
01:19:25Project Lazarus.
01:19:27It's happening.
01:19:34You look
01:19:35and gunned
01:19:35it to say.
01:19:36It were not
01:19:37due for
01:19:37any in
01:19:38Sol's
01:19:38his just
01:19:39to have
01:19:39the commander.
01:19:40Enough,
01:19:41Ella.
01:19:41Look at yourself.
01:19:43Are you trying
01:19:43to avenge
01:19:44your parents
01:19:44or join
01:19:45them in death?
01:19:53I am not
01:19:54trying to die.
01:19:55I found something.
01:19:59This is a
01:19:59reconstruction
01:20:00of the final
01:20:0110 seconds
01:20:01of my parents'
01:20:02experiment
01:20:0316 years ago.
01:20:05Someone manually
01:20:06implanted
01:20:06a catastrophic
01:20:07code into
01:20:08the base system
01:20:09which caused
01:20:10the explosion.
01:20:11So this was
01:20:12not a scientific
01:20:13accident.
01:20:14It was murder?
01:20:15It was.
01:20:17Did Mr. Thorne
01:20:18did he know
01:20:19about this?
01:20:22If he was
01:20:22the mastermind
01:20:23he never
01:20:23would have
01:20:24saved me
01:20:24but he
01:20:25definitely
01:20:25knew something.
01:20:27Where are
01:20:27you going?
01:20:29To find
01:20:30the truth.
01:20:38Physical
01:20:39restoration
01:20:39is complete.
01:20:41This is
01:20:41the last
01:20:42communication
01:20:42record pulled
01:20:43from the wreckage
01:20:44of the backup
01:20:44server from
01:20:4516 years ago.
01:20:46play it.
01:20:47If they
01:20:47won't sell
01:20:48the tech
01:20:48then we
01:20:49make it
01:20:49disappear
01:20:49with the
01:20:50genius
01:20:50couple.
01:20:52Clean it
01:20:52up.
01:20:53No loose
01:20:54ends.
01:20:56So that's
01:20:57what happened.
01:20:58What?
01:20:59All these
01:21:00years Caleb
01:21:00thought it
01:21:01was a flaw
01:21:01in his lab
01:21:02system that
01:21:03killed my
01:21:03parents
01:21:04indirectly.
01:21:06Arthur
01:21:06didn't just
01:21:07kill my
01:21:07parents.
01:21:08He used
01:21:09it to make
01:21:09Caleb live
01:21:09with guilt
01:21:10for the rest
01:21:10of his
01:21:11life.
01:21:11Oh my
01:21:12God.
01:21:13That's
01:21:14it.
01:21:15I'm not
01:21:16letting him
01:21:16get away
01:21:17with this.
01:21:21You're
01:21:21moving in
01:21:21for the
01:21:22takedown?
01:21:22Yeah.
01:21:23I'm going to
01:21:24make him pay
01:21:25back every
01:21:25cent of this
01:21:2640-year
01:21:27blood debt
01:21:27with interest.
01:21:29Seal all
01:21:30the original
01:21:30evidence and
01:21:31code.
01:21:33Max out
01:21:34at the
01:21:34encryption
01:21:34level.
01:21:42Today,
01:21:43on behalf
01:21:44of Thornt
01:21:45Industries,
01:21:45I am
01:21:46proud to
01:21:47unveil this
01:21:47groundbreaking
01:21:48particle
01:21:48stabilization
01:21:49technology to
01:21:50the world.
01:21:54Before you
01:21:55steal someone's
01:21:55life's work,
01:21:56Mr. Sterling,
01:21:57shouldn't you
01:21:57check if the
01:21:57rightful heir is
01:21:58still alive?
01:21:59Security,
01:22:00get her out
01:22:00of here.
01:22:02If they
01:22:03won't sell
01:22:04the tech,
01:22:04then we
01:22:04make it
01:22:05disappear
01:22:05with the
01:22:06genius couple.
01:22:07Clean it
01:22:08up,
01:22:08no loose
01:22:08ends.
01:22:0916 years
01:22:10ago,
01:22:11you hacked
01:22:11into my
01:22:12parents'
01:22:12lab,
01:22:13stole their
01:22:14algorithm,
01:22:15and implanted
01:22:15a catastrophic
01:22:16code into
01:22:17the base
01:22:17system.
01:22:18You locked
01:22:18the backup
01:22:19cooling valves,
01:22:20causing that
01:22:20irreversible
01:22:21explosion.
01:22:22Ridiculous!
01:22:23A fake
01:22:24simulation and
01:22:25a docked
01:22:25audio clip
01:22:26won't convict
01:22:27me!
01:22:27The encrypted
01:22:27transfer paths
01:22:28for your
01:22:29stolen data,
01:22:30the offshore
01:22:30account flows
01:22:31for your
01:22:31stock shortage,
01:22:32federal prosecutors
01:22:33already have
01:22:34all of it.
01:22:40You think
01:22:40taking me down
01:22:41will bring
01:22:42Thorne Global
01:22:42back from
01:22:43the dead?
01:22:49Arthur
01:22:50Sterling,
01:22:52everything you
01:22:52lost today
01:22:53is just the
01:22:54interest.
01:22:57The interest
01:23:21Thorne Global
01:23:22Board voted
01:23:22unanimously.
01:23:23The Caleb Thorne
01:23:24Research Fund,
01:23:25named after
01:23:26Mr. Thorne,
01:23:27will officially
01:23:27launch tomorrow.
01:23:28The Science
01:23:29and Technology
01:23:29Museum has
01:23:30cleared the
01:23:30Central Exhibition
01:23:31Hall.
01:23:34Send these
01:23:35over there.
01:23:46For Caleb,
01:23:47who saw the
01:23:47beauty in the
01:23:48broken.
01:23:49And for us,
01:23:50who are
01:23:51finally ready
01:23:51to remember.
01:24:01Arthur's been
01:24:01transferred to
01:24:02a maximum
01:24:02security prison,
01:24:03no bail.
01:24:04Thorne Global's
01:24:05stock is up
01:24:05five points
01:24:06today.
01:24:09Everything's
01:24:10back on track
01:24:11now.
01:24:11Ella,
01:24:12it's time for
01:24:12you to start
01:24:12your life over.
01:24:13This is my
01:24:14life now.
01:24:14You know
01:24:15what I mean.
01:24:16Ella,
01:24:18Caleb's
01:24:18gone.
01:24:19He's
01:24:19subatomic
01:24:20particles in the
01:24:20universe now.
01:24:21If you'll let
01:24:22me...
01:24:22As long as
01:24:23his wavelength
01:24:23is still out
01:24:24there,
01:24:24he's not
01:24:25gone.
01:24:41Ella,
01:24:42put your
01:24:43coat on.
01:24:47Your health
01:24:48belongs to
01:24:48me.
01:24:49Don't catch
01:24:49a cold.
01:24:50I'm not
01:24:51cold anymore,
01:24:52daddy.
01:24:53Once you
01:24:54locked me
01:24:55in that
01:24:55penthouse,
01:24:56controlling
01:24:56me with
01:24:57your love.
01:24:59This time,
01:25:00I'm the
01:25:01one locking
01:25:02you up
01:25:02in my
01:25:03signal.
01:25:09He kept
01:25:10transmitting
01:25:11this frequency
01:25:11into deep
01:25:12space for the
01:25:13entire 20
01:25:14years I was
01:25:14frozen,
01:25:16trying to find
01:25:17a singularity
01:25:18in the
01:25:18universe
01:25:20to fold
01:25:21time back
01:25:21on itself.
01:25:26Daddy,
01:25:27what are you
01:25:27looking at?
01:25:30At
01:25:30time.
01:25:31If time
01:25:32could be
01:25:33folded,
01:25:33so many
01:25:33things could
01:25:34be undone.
01:25:48Caleb,
01:25:49what exactly
01:25:49did you
01:25:50want me
01:25:50to hear?
01:25:53Is the
01:25:54agreement
01:25:54ready?
01:25:55Mr. Thorne,
01:25:56once you sign
01:25:57this,
01:25:58she will be
01:25:58entirely in your
01:25:59custody,
01:25:59but if you do
01:26:00this,
01:26:00she will hate
01:26:01you for the
01:26:01rest of her
01:26:02life.
01:26:03she has
01:26:03to hate
01:26:04me.
01:26:05Only if
01:26:05she hates
01:26:05me will
01:26:06she stay
01:26:06far away
01:26:07from the
01:26:07experiment
01:26:08my parents
01:26:08worked on.
01:26:09I can't
01:26:10let Arthur
01:26:10kill her
01:26:10too.
01:26:12Lock her
01:26:12up.
01:26:13Even if
01:26:14she thinks
01:26:14I'm a
01:26:15monster,
01:26:15at least
01:26:16she'll
01:26:16be alive.
01:26:26I heard
01:26:27you,
01:26:28Caleb.
