Short filmTranscript
00:11August, you've been in here for hours.
00:15Maybe it's time for a little break.
00:20Cheryl, let's stop.
00:23Just once.
00:24Let's try it.
00:25Please, August.
00:26I won't let you down.
00:27I promise.
00:28So stop!
00:32God.
00:34It's been two years, August, and you haven't even touched me.
00:38Not once.
00:39What do I have to do?
00:41Beg?
00:41Bleed?
00:43God.
00:47Blake, I'm done.
00:48Okay?
00:49I want to divorce him.
00:51Finally you get it, baby sis.
00:53Come to Paris.
00:54I have ten hot guys light up for you.
00:56Let your husband rot along with his work.
01:22Tessa?
01:27Tessa Whitmore? His own stepsister?
01:30Tessa, I love you.
01:32Six years. I kept telling myself maybe he just wasn't into sex, but the truth?
01:38He just wasn't into me, but into his stepsister, Tessa.
01:46She tried again, didn't she?
01:48Of course. Mr. Whitmore doesn't need women.
01:51There's no way she can seduce him.
01:54It's embarrassing.
02:05They're not wrong.
02:08I've humiliated myself.
02:11Oh my God. Is that August Whitmore?
02:15I have to meet him.
02:17Charlie, you can flirt with anyone in this room, just not him.
02:20Why not?
02:21Well, wealthy heirs like us love fancy lives, but this guy, he's allergic to women.
02:27He doesn't date, he doesn't flirt.
02:30He's like a monk in the Tom Ford suit.
02:33Well, maybe I can be the one to break this spell.
02:43I thought that night I'd finally broken through.
02:46The woman he's always loved is his stepsister.
03:01August, do you like what you see?
03:03Can you stop wearing my shirts without asking?
03:06I'll buy you your own, okay?
03:11I guess we've been together for four years.
03:14Four years of waiting and trying.
03:18What do I have to do to make you touch me?
03:21Marry me.
03:24What?
03:25Let's get married.
03:33I was a distraction.
03:36He married me to cage his own desire.
03:39To hide from the woman he truly wanted.
03:48Seven more days and I'll be gone.
03:50Off to Paris, far from him.
03:52And all of this chaos.
04:04Who are you right now?
04:07You've been step foot in here since marrying August.
04:09I know, but tonight, okay, who cares?
04:12We're partying!
04:14Sean?
04:15Um, yes.
04:16Yes!
04:18Let's go!
04:20Cheers.
04:20Cheers.
04:24Oh my god.
04:26Hi, excuse me.
04:28Can you send the hottest guy that you have over here, please?
04:35Hi.
04:38Not bad.
04:40Charlotte, what are you doing?
04:42What if August sees you?
04:43He never comes here.
04:44It doesn't matter.
04:48He's here tonight.
04:50Back booth.
04:51He's been watching you the whole time.
04:53And then he looks angry.
04:55Is he jealous?
04:56For me?
04:57Dude.
04:58Your wife is out there dry humping the male model.
05:01If that was me, I'd be flipping tables.
05:03Charlotte knows her to dry line.
05:04She won't cross it.
05:06She's crossing his abs right now.
05:08You really don't give a damn, do you?
05:09Is there any woman on the planet who could get under your skin?
05:13Excuse me.
05:16Hey.
05:18Calm down.
05:19No, wait.
05:20He's coming.
05:21I've never seen him look like that before.
05:23You made him jealous, Charlotte.
05:25I can't believe he's actually coming over here.
05:27August.
05:39I can't believe he didn't even look at me.
05:46August, what are you doing?
05:48He was jealous.
05:50But not for me.
05:52August, what are you doing here?
05:55Who said you didn't come here?
05:56And why are you giving your number out to random guys?
05:58Haven't you said you're done with me?
06:00Don't act like you still care.
06:04Who said I don't?
06:07You did.
06:08You barely talked to me for a week.
06:10You used to treat me like I mattered.
06:12And now it's like, like, like you're avoiding me.
06:15What happened?
06:19Because.
06:21Say it.
06:22Say it's because you want her.
06:24I'm married now.
06:26Things can't be the way they were.
06:28I can't chase you around all day.
06:30Liar.
06:31You didn't stop loving her.
06:33You just stopped pretending not to.
06:35So was Charlotte.

13:37It's so shiny.
13:44You hit me?
13:45My own brother wouldn't even lay a hand on me and you think you can?
13:49Hold her down.

13:56Ah!

14:11I'm glad you're finally catching up.
14:17What the hell are you looking at?
14:25Do you really think August is gonna let you get away with this?
14:28Oh, please.
14:30August has let me get away with everything my entire life.
14:33Even if I were to beat his wife dead today.
14:37And just remember, I'm the one he cares about, not you.
14:41So now, I'll make sure you never forget that.
14:5029.
14:5230.
14:5439.
14:5661.
14:57No!
14:59Ha ha ha ha ha!
15:00Woo!
15:04How many was that?
15:0599.
15:0699.
15:0899?
15:08Oh, no.
15:09Let's make it a clean hundred.
15:12Okay.
15:19Oh!
15:21Oh!
15:22Oh!
15:23Oh!
15:25Oh!
15:26Oh, no.
15:28He looks so much better like that.
15:36What the hell's going on here?
15:42I heard about what happened today.
15:46And?
15:48Tessa can be a little impulsive.
15:50And what she did today was wrong.
15:52I already punished her.
15:54I wonder what that punishment looks like.
15:56She cut your hair.
15:58So she cut a lock of her own, too.
16:00To say she's sorry.
16:02She slapped me a hundred times.
16:06I was unconscious.
16:09You don't actually think that that makes us even, do you?
16:11Her hand is swollen from hitting you.
16:13She suffered, too.
16:14Oh, my God.
16:15I was an idiot.
16:17Forever falling in love with you.
16:24Get out!
16:25Can you calm down?
16:27I brought her here to apologize.
16:29Come in.
16:35Sorry, Charlotte.
16:35I...
16:36I was a little out of line.
16:40August, she's scaring me.
16:41Please don't let her hurt me.
16:43Don't worry.
16:44No one's gonna hurt you.
16:46Not while I'm here.
16:47Both of you.
16:48Just get out.
16:49Now.
16:50Look.
16:51I know you're angry, but the doctor said you need to rest.
16:53And just take some time to relax.
16:55I said get out!
17:05Sweetheart.
17:07Your visa's approved.
17:08Someone offered to pick you up in Paris anytime.
17:16Who?
17:17Let's just say...
17:19A much better person than that heartless husband of yours.
17:22We'll see you in Paris, we are.
17:35Once I get that visa, I am never setting foot in this place again.
17:42Let go of me!
17:43Let go of me!
17:44Let go!
17:45Let go!
17:46No!
17:47No!
17:48No!
17:56Well, look who's awake.
18:04Who the hell are you?
18:06Let me go.
18:07My brother will kill you for this.
18:12You know what that is strapped to you, princess?
18:15That's a bomb.
18:17Now, the Whitmores ruined my life.
18:19And now, August is going to watch the two women he loves get blown to bits.
18:28No, please, somebody help us, please.
18:31Tessa, just stop crying, okay?
18:33If we want to get out of here, we have to figure this out.
18:35Don't yell at me, okay?
18:36I'm scared.
18:38August!
18:40August, please!
18:43August, August, help me.
18:45Please, I know how to disassemble this.
18:48Free me first and we can save Tessa together.
18:51There is still time.
18:52No, August, please save me.
18:54Please, please.
18:55I'm going to get her first, and then I'll come back for you.
19:00He chose her again.
19:01And what's worse, it doesn't even hurt anymore.
19:12August, no, please, please.
19:14I'm scared.
19:15Please.
19:16Please.
19:18Please.
19:20Please.
19:20I'm scared.
19:24Please.
19:25Please.
19:26Just take her and go.
19:27From now on, my life has nothing to do with you anymore.
19:30If you don't love me, someone else will.
19:34August, no, no, please.
19:35Please, it's going to blow you down.
19:37Leave me alone.
19:47No.
19:49No.
20:03That was close, but luckily she managed to throw the bomb away in the last few seconds.
20:08Thank you, Doctor.
20:20Don't move.
20:21Don't move.
20:22Save.
20:23Fake concern.
20:24No matter what you do, I will never forgive you.
20:27You just had a skin graft done for Tessa.
20:29You need to rest.
20:31What did you just say?
20:37I gave Tessa a skin graft?
20:40Tessa's arm was burnt, and she didn't want a scar.
20:42And your skin matched her the best, so they used it for the transplant.
20:46You didn't even ask me?
20:48You just took it?
20:49She's your princess, and what am I?
20:51Just trash on your shoes?
20:53I'll make it up to you.
20:54You've always wanted to sleep with me, haven't you?
20:56When you're discharged, I'll give you that.
21:02Save it.
21:03You're disgusting.
21:04Blame me all you want.
21:05I'll leave on a business trip tomorrow, but I keep my promises.
21:08When I get back, I'll follow through.
21:25I'm such an idiot.
21:27I knew this ring never fit, but I wore it anyway.
21:35Tessa, meet me in August to study.
21:37There's something you'll want to see.
21:41What?
21:43You better not try anything.
21:46Try it.
21:54What's your point?
21:54You always wondered why August kept his distance from you.
21:57It wasn't me.
21:58It's because he wanted you.
22:03That's insane.
22:04I have proof.
22:07Everyone always thought that August Whitmore, the stoic, celibate, the obsessed businessman,
22:12had no time for women.
22:14But the truth is, he has been locking himself in here for years,
22:18jacking off to your photos.
22:24The woman that he loved most is the one that he never dared to touch.
22:32His stepsister.
22:34What a fucking joke.
22:36So he really wants me.
22:38You remember that night that you fell asleep on the couch?
22:41He kissed you for three minutes.
22:44And that ring?
22:45That was never meant for me.
22:47He got that for you.
22:48He always wanted to marry you.
22:55I want you to give this to your brother.
22:56It's a divorce agreement.
22:58I have already signed it.
23:01Where are you going?
23:04Start my new life without him.
23:07And Tessa, if you ever lay a finger on me again,
23:10I will return it to you a thousand times over.
23:32Just landed.
23:33Got you something.
23:37Of course, Tessa gets the jewelry.
23:39I get the freebies.
23:41I get the freebies.
23:44But not anymore.
23:46From now on, August.
23:47You will never hurt me again.
23:53Happy divorce, August.
23:55Enjoy your freedom.
23:56And I'll enjoy Malena.
23:58I'm going far, far away.
24:00To a place you'll never find me.
24:03And I'll find someone who'll love me for who I am.
24:31She usually replies within seconds, no matter what I send.
24:35Morning.
24:36Did you eat?
24:37It's raining.
24:38Don't forget an umbrella.
24:40Good night, sweet dreams.
24:44Good night.
24:46Good night.
24:53Good night.
24:53Good night.
24:55Good night.
24:55She's still mad at me?
24:57Sir, should we go to Miss Tessa's first or head home?
24:59Charlotte, is she out of the hospital?
25:02Yesterday.
25:03The doctor says she's recovering well.
25:08The number you have dialed is not in service.
25:11What kind of game is she playing now?
25:16What?
25:16She blocked me?
25:17Drive home.
25:19Now.
25:23Why do I feel unsettled?
25:25She's never done this before.
25:26What the hell is going on?
25:51She used to cuddle up with that blanket every night.
25:54What?
25:56What?
25:57What?
26:06Sir, Charlotte's not home.
26:07So she ran.
26:09Is this another one of her stunts waiting for me to chase her?
26:11She's probably hiding out at Lindsay's again.
26:14Call her.
26:14Tell Charlotte stop being dramatic and come home.
26:16Yes, sir, but I think she's really mad this time.
26:19What if she doesn't come back?
26:20That's impossible.
26:20No matter how bad the fight, it's always the same.
26:22Three days max.
26:23And then she comes back.
26:25Honey.
26:26Hey.
26:26Hey.
26:29What the hell is wrong with you, August?
26:31Don't expect me to forgive you for this.
26:39Can't you just say sorry and we can get over this?
26:44Sorry.
26:45Don't be mad at me anymore.
26:49Okay.
26:51Since you're really sorry, then I forgive you.
27:05What are you waiting for?
27:06Make the damn call.
27:07Yes, sir.
27:11Don't bother.
27:13She's not coming back.
27:15She's not coming back.
27:20She's not coming back.
27:22Charlotte's already divorced you.
27:23What do you mean?
27:29She left me her wedding ring.
27:32Said she's never coming back.
27:35Say that again?
27:37You're hurting me, August.
27:39Tell me exactly what she said.
27:41She said you were never in love with her.
27:43The only reason you were with her was to bury your feelings for me.
27:48What else did she say?
27:51You're done here, right?
27:53I'll be outside, sir.
27:59She said you kissed me while I was asleep.
28:03She showed me your study room.
28:05All the photos of me behind your medals.
28:09She said you jerk off to them every night.
28:13And she signed this.
28:16She said she hopes we have a happy life together.
28:21You could have just told me you wanted me, Auggie.
28:24I've always wanted you, too.
28:28We're not really siblings, so you can have me now.
28:37Say it!
28:39Do you love her?
28:42Tessa, what are you doing?
28:43Give that to me.
28:44If you really love Charlotte, I'll kill myself.
28:47I'd rather die than see you fall for another girl.
28:49Tessa, don't do it.
28:50Then say it.
28:51Say you're mine, or I'll cut myself.
28:56Fine.
28:57I'll be with you.
29:02You're mine now, August.
29:04Finally, you're really mine.
29:10Parker.
29:11Take this away.
29:13Sir.
29:14Should I still keep trying to contact Charlotte?
29:16Are you deaf?
29:17He just said he's done with her.
29:19If you dare try calling her, I'll make sure my brother fires you first.
29:24This isn't something that you would regret, sir.
29:26What did you say?
29:27Regret?
29:30Stop!
29:31Why are you saying that?
29:33I should be happy.
29:34Tessa's finally mine.
29:36But why does it feel like something's missing?
29:45This is a rare purse.
29:47There's only five of these in the world.
29:48Oh my God.
29:49Can you please buy it for me?
29:50Of course.
29:50Whatever you want.
29:51Yay.
29:52You're the best.
29:53Hi.
29:54How can I assist?
29:55Not that one.
29:56Definitely not that one.
29:57But all the others?
29:58Wrap them up.
29:59Right away.
30:00Would you like to see our newest collection?
30:02Yes.
30:03Awesome.
30:03Right this way.
30:04Oh!
30:11Which one looks better on me?
30:13You look stunning than anything.
30:14So buy them all if you can't decide.
30:17Aki.
30:18I love you so much.
30:20Eve!
30:25What about this one?
30:32I don't know.
30:33What do you think?
30:34Is it...
30:34Is it too plain?
30:36Does it make me look old?
30:38It's fine.
30:39You look the same in anything.
30:41Look, I have work to get done, so...
30:43I'm leaving.
30:44I'm leaving.
30:47Why is she in my head?
30:49I should be happy with Tessa, shouldn't I?
31:00You're in a good mood today, sir.
31:01She's lively.
31:03Being around her, it's easier to breathe.
31:05Not like Charlotte.
31:06Always so dull.
31:07She wasn't always like that.
31:08She used to be vibrant.
31:11The only reason that Charlotte dulled herself down was to fend to your world.
31:15First time I saw Charlotte, she was 20.
31:17She was fire, bright, alive.
31:20Too bright for me, maybe.
31:21So, you're August Whitmore.
31:24They say you're allergic to women.
31:27Is that true?
31:30But after we got married, she changed.
31:37Honey, what do you think?
31:39Red is gaudy.
31:41And can you stop talking so loud?
31:44After that, she stopped wearing colors, stopped laughing out loud.
31:47She was just dull.
31:51Charlotte changed for you because she loved you.
31:55What if she gets tired, walks away?
31:58Could you live with that?
32:01All right.
32:04Uh, what are you guys talking about?
32:06Nothing.
32:06Just, just work stuff.
32:07You're thinking about work while you're on a date with me?
32:10You better make it up to me, okay?
32:11That new bistro?
32:12I want to eat there.
32:14Now.
32:20Yeah, I understand.
32:23Sir, it's a four-hour wait.
32:26Tessa, I have an important meeting this afternoon.
32:29Can we do this somewhere else?
32:30No, it's just four hours.
32:33If you're really my boyfriend, you better spoil me like a man madly in love would.
32:37All right.
32:38We'll wait.
32:39You're the best.
32:41So this is what love feels like.
32:43Just tired.
32:44What?
32:45Nothing.
32:46Let's go.
32:59Oh, my God.
33:00Thanks, Aki.
33:01You're the sweetest.
33:02I have to take this.
33:08Tessa?
33:09What a coincidence.
33:11Is that your boyfriend?
33:13He's insanely hot.
33:15That's my stepbrother.
33:16Your stepbrother?
33:17You've never mentioned him.
33:18He seems so attentive-kept, fussing over you.
33:22And the way he was looking at you?
33:24Definitely boyfriend vibes.
33:26Oh.
33:27You two never.
33:30What?
33:30No, no, no, no.
33:32My mom married his dad.
33:34That's literally it.
33:35Oh, sorry.
33:37Totally misread.
33:38Catch you around?
33:45Aki, you're back.
33:48Aki, are you done with your phone call?
33:50Yeah.
33:51You didn't happen to hear any of that, did you?
33:54Should I have?
33:54No, no, no, no, no.
33:56There was nothing at all.
33:57I'm done with my food now, so let's go.
34:03Let's wait till we're in the car.
34:05There's too many people in here.
34:08When this place opened, the wait list was insane.
34:11Charlotte waited eight hours just to get us a table, but I showed up late.
34:15You're here.
34:17Hey, Tessa needed something last minute.
34:19Sorry I'm late.
34:20Why do you order so much food?
34:22I, um, I actually invited some friends.
34:24I really wanted them to meet you, but they couldn't wait any longer, so they had to go.
34:28But hey, I mean, it's just you and me.
34:31Date night, right?
34:33Charlotte couldn't wait to introduce me to her friends.
34:35But Tessa?
34:38Tessa?
34:38Augie, what are you looking at?
34:40Nothing.
34:42Let's go.
34:44Where's Charlotte?
34:46Didn't she come back with you?
34:48Uh, she, she had something come up.
34:50Said she couldn't make it.
34:51You two have been married a while now.
34:53Don't you think it's about time you had a child?
34:55Actually, yeah.
34:55Dad, August has his own plans for that.
34:58Let's, let's not rush him.
35:00All right, Tessa.
35:02But you're now of age two.
35:03I've lined up some potential matches for you.
35:07Family alliances.
35:08You should meet with them when you have a moment.
35:10Yes, daddy, of course.
35:15We'll talk later, okay?
35:25Augie!
35:28Why didn't you tell mom and dad about the divorce?
35:32Because they love Charlotte.
35:34And if they found out you two split, they'd go mad.
35:37Plus, it's our first night.
35:38I didn't want to ruin it.
35:39Then why didn't you refuse dad when he arranged your marriage?
35:42I was just humoring him, Augie.
35:45Don't overthink it.
35:49I'm tired.
35:50I'm going to bed.
35:51You can take the guest room.
36:05Surprise.
36:07Surprise.
36:08Get out.
36:08What?
36:09Why?
36:10We're together now.
36:11What's wrong with sharing a bed?
36:13If you kick me out, I'm seriously going to cry.
36:17Fine.
36:18Stay.
36:19Stay.
36:19Stay.
36:22I can't believe this is real, Augie.
36:25I've loved you since we were kids.
36:26And now that you love me, it feels like a dream.
36:29You really love me that much?
36:31Of course I do.
36:34I want us to stay like this forever.
36:38Then let's get married.
36:41What?
36:42Let's get married, Tessa.
36:44Isn't it a little fast?
36:45I mean, we're perfect the way we are, right?
36:48I don't do secrets.
36:49If we're going to be together, it's all in.
36:51I'll make it public that we're not biologically related.
36:54Then we marry.
36:56And build our life with everyone's blessings.
36:59Look, if you want me, Tessa, if you really want me, this is what it takes.
37:05No.
37:06No, no, no, no, no.
37:07No, I can't.
37:08I won't.
37:11If we go public, I won't be the admired heirs anymore.
37:15And people will say I seduced my own brother.
37:16That's disgusting.
37:18Mom and dad would never forgive us.
37:20I see what you really want.
37:21You want me to be your secret lover.
37:23No, I don't.
37:24That's not it.
37:24I just want us to stay the way we are.
37:29Right.
37:29Nothing has to change.
37:30Is that why you denied our relationship to your classmate?
37:34That's my stepbrother.
37:36You heard that?
37:39I was just scared that they'd gossip.
37:41Okay, please.
37:41Please don't be mad at me.
37:42I was just scared.
37:44Right.
37:45And when dad brought up a marriage alliance, you said yes?
37:49Was that also fair too?
37:50Yes, daddy.
37:51Of course.
37:52Yes.
37:53Okay, I was just trying to buy time, okay?
37:56I would have come up with something eventually.
38:02Tessa, I've always loved you.
38:04But I didn't hold back because I was afraid you would reject me.
38:07I held back because deep down I know how selfish you can be.
38:10What?
38:11You said yes to me, but not to any of the costs.
38:15You wouldn't give your image up.
38:16Your title.
38:18You only want me if it's easy.
38:24Then why be with me at all?
38:26Because I had hoped.
38:28If you would have really chosen me, I would have given you everything.
38:31But I see now you would risk nothing from me.
38:37Let's end this, Tessa.
38:40Let's end this, Tessa.
38:43No, no, no, no.
38:44Please, please don't have this, okay?
38:46I know I'm selfish and I'm scared, but that's the girl you fell for, isn't it?
38:51Just give me more time.
38:53Please.
38:54I've compromised everything for you, but not this.
38:57If you're not willing to stand beside me in the light, then we're going to go back to just being
39:00siblings.
39:04This was your plan all along, wasn't it?
39:07You've always wanted to own me, and now that you do, you're going back to her.
39:11To Charlotte.
39:13You love her, don't you?
39:15I am going back to her.
39:17And we never divorced.
39:18And I don't know whether I love her.
39:20I just know that this house doesn't feel like home without her.
39:26She's not coming back.
39:29She will.
39:30Charlotte loves me.
39:31If I find her, she'll come back.
39:35And what makes you so sure?
39:37Have you forgotten all the terrible things you did to her all because of me?
39:42Have you forgotten all the terrible things you did to her all because of me?
39:49Tessa wants to go shopping.
39:51I'll make it up to you later.
39:52Promise.
39:53Promise.
40:04I'll get you.
40:05I don't like her.
40:07Then she won't be at family events anymore.
40:09I promise.
40:12Remember when I smashed those bottles up her head?
40:14You grounded me for one day.
40:17Or when I hacked off all her hair.
40:20You did nothing.
40:22You even authorized a skin graft from her body.
40:26You really think she'd forgive you after all that?
40:30I did all of that.
40:32Yeah.
40:33You did.
40:35Cruel.
40:35Isn't it?
40:36Honestly, it's a miracle.
40:38She stayed with you as long as she did.
40:51She's really done with you, August.
40:56August.
40:58August.
40:59August.
41:01August.
41:02August.
41:03August.
41:04August.
41:05August.
41:05August.
41:06This is hell for her, okay?
41:08And she wants no part of you in it.
41:10Shut up!
41:24Tomorrow I'll have my driver bring you back.
41:26Father arranged a match for you.
41:28Go meet the man.
41:30You'd really let me marry another man?
41:32Isn't that what you want?
41:34To be the Whitmore heiress?
41:36Fine.
41:37From now on, everything goes back to the way it used to.
41:39You're my sister, and I'm with Charlotte.
41:52Ah!
41:53Find out where Charlotte is now.
41:55Sir, she asked you for a divorce.
41:58Maybe it's time that you let her go.
41:59What, have you forgotten who you work for?
42:01No, I haven't, sir.
42:02I am your assistant.
42:04But I'm also someone who has feelings for Miss Charlotte.
42:07What?
42:08What did you just say?
42:09Anybody who would have met her would have fallen for her, sir.
42:11She is stunning like fire.
42:13But you, you used her as a stand-in for your guilt shield.
42:21I'm not helping you track her down, sir.
42:23Fire me if you have to.
42:24If you don't do it, I'll find somebody else who will, no matter what the cost.
42:28I'm going to find her.
42:33She was all light and fire, so attractive.
42:35But somehow, she gave me all of her attention.
42:39She always remembered the coffee I like.
42:43I brought you a double espresso.
42:45Just the right temperature.
42:47And it was always perfect.
42:55Honey, wait!
42:58It's raining.
42:59Don't catch a cold.
43:00On rainy days, she'd warm up my jacket before I had been asked.
43:05Have a good day.
43:12Even when I locked myself away working overnight, she'd sit outside the door until sunrise.
43:24She'd end herself just to stay in my world.
43:27And all she ever wanted was for me to love her.
43:31August, will you love me?
43:34Just once.
43:36I will.
43:38From now on, Charlotte, you'll be my only love.
43:44Yes.
43:45Yes, thank you.
43:46Sir, we found her.
43:49Charlotte's in Paris.
43:50Paris?
43:51She went to her brothers?
43:53Oh, Blake.
43:54Thank you so much for coming in all the way from Paris for this.
43:58You're my only sister.
43:59I wasn't going to miss this wedding for the world.
44:03It's your duty now.
44:04You take care of our little princess.
44:07You ever hurt her?
44:08I will come back for her.
44:10I mean it.
44:15Don't be mad, okay?
44:17We're doing just fine the way we are.
44:24Dad, about Tessa's arranged marriage, I'll pick the guy myself.
44:29Book me the earliest flight to Paris.
44:31Yes, sir.
44:38So I've got profiles on over a dozen respectable young men for Tessa.
44:47The youngest son of the Lawson family.
44:49He won't mistreat her.
44:51Good eye.
44:52That boy has an excellent reputation.
44:56I have to go.
44:57Wait!
44:58Where's Charlotte?
45:00She hasn't been over here for dinner in a long time.
45:07You had a fight with Charlotte?
45:09No.
45:10She just went abroad for a bit.
45:11She'll be back soon.
45:12When she gets back, invite her over here for dinner.
45:17Do you know I was feeling down last week?
45:19And she bought me this incredible wine package.
45:22Just to cheer me up.
45:24And your mother.
45:26She can't even sleep.
45:29And Charlotte drives her to therapy every week.
45:34Yeah.
45:35That's Charlotte.
45:37Always doing the right thing
45:38and never asking for anything in return.
45:41You better make sure you start treating that girl right.
45:45I will.
45:46For the rest of my life.
45:52Aki!
45:53Why haven't you been answering my text messages?
45:56You're going to see Charlotte?
45:59No, okay?
45:59I know I messed up yesterday,
46:01but I'll do whatever you want.
46:02Just don't go to her, please.
46:04Tessa, stop.
46:05No, no, no.
46:06We're not done unless I say we're done.
46:08Please, August, I love you.
46:09Fine.
46:10Then make our relationship public.
46:13Come on.
46:13Tell my parents everything.
46:14Tell them that we're in love.
46:17No.
46:18No, I can't.
46:20I have spoiled you long enough.
46:22I can't keep losing myself just to love you.
46:25I've chosen the right man for you,
46:26and that's the last thing I do.
46:28From now on,
46:30we're just siblings.
46:40August!
46:42Please!
46:44Charlotte,
46:46I bought your favorite perfume.
46:50And that necklace you've been ironed for years.
46:55And this.
46:56The ring I owed you.
46:58This time I'll put it on your finger myself.
47:03Sir,
47:04flight to Paris is now ready for boarding.
47:08Yeah.
47:26Maybe she's still angry.
47:28But it's okay.
47:29If I apologize,
47:29she'll come back.
47:31Since you're really sorry,
47:33then I forgive you.
47:52What the hell?
47:53I love you, babe.
48:08Charlotte.
48:09August?
48:10What the hell's going on?
48:12Dean Carver?
48:14You gotta be kidding me.
48:15Long time no see.
48:17August Whitmore?
48:18What the hell was that just now?
48:19Uh,
48:21a kiss?
48:21Wasn't it obvious?
48:26Let go.
48:28We're dating now, man.
48:30Got a problem with that?
48:31Dating?
48:32She's my wife.
48:33Oh, really?
48:34Because I'm pretty sure you two are divorced already.
48:36You.
48:37Did you forget what I said to you?
48:40You ever hurt her?
48:42I will come back for her.
48:44Yeah, I kept my promise.
48:46But since you're here,
48:47August,
48:48why don't we let Charlotte decide?
48:59Cut the crap, Dane.
49:01Of course she's gonna pick me.
49:02I'm the one she's always loved.
49:04We're divorced, August.
49:06You don't get to make decisions for me anymore.
49:08I never agreed to a divorce.
49:11Come home with me.
49:11I'll make it right.
49:13Make it right?
49:14What do you think this is?
49:15You get some kind of free pass?
49:17Yeah.
49:18A couple of months ago,
49:19I would have been thrilled to hear you say that.
49:23But now,
49:25I don't love you anymore.
49:29Stay out of my life and go back to Tessa.
49:32It's over between me and her.
49:34We're just siblings now.
49:35That has nothing to do with me.
49:41I love Dane now.
49:44I do.
49:45In love.
49:46With him?
49:47You've loved me for six years.
49:49You don't just switch it off
49:51and fall into somebody else's arms.
49:52You think I'm buying this?
49:54Yeah?
49:55Then how about this?
50:01Enough!
50:03Stop!
50:11Well.
50:15Ain't this a show.
50:17August.
50:23What the hell are you doing here?
50:25I'm here to take my wife home.
50:28You're divorced.
50:29And didn't you just see that sweet kiss?
50:31I think she's with Dane now.
50:34That's insane.
50:34Blake, you're my best friend
50:36and you're letting your sister run around
50:37and mess with some other man?
50:38Cheating on me?
50:39Hey, hey.
50:41You're the one who always said
50:42the best way to fall out of love
50:43is to fall in love again.
50:45Maybe she just learned from you?
50:48Charlotte,
50:48I was wrong about everything.
50:50Just come home with me, please.
50:52Why?
50:53Because you finally love me now?
50:56I don't know if I'm in love with you,
50:59but without you,
51:00the house is empty.
51:01Well, that's good.
51:04You don't even know if you love me,
51:05but you expect me to come back with you?
51:10Let's go, Dane.
51:12No, you can't go with him.
51:13Come with me.
51:14Let's talk.
51:19Fine.
51:27She's got this.
51:30What the hell do you want, August?
51:32I've said it a hundred times.
51:33We're divorced.
51:34I'm with Dane now.
51:35You can't expect me to believe
51:37you fell in love with him that fast.
51:38God, you've always been so sure of yourself.
51:41Here's the truth.
51:43Hearts break,
51:44people change.
51:46Charlotte?
51:46If loving you ever started at a hundred, August,
51:49you have spent the past six years
51:51tearing it all down.
51:58You lied about loving me
51:59while obsessing over your stepsister.
52:02Minus ten.
52:04You ditched me on my birthday
52:06to take her shopping.
52:08Minus ten.
52:09I had a fever.
52:11You left me alone to buy her a gift.
52:13Minus twenty.
52:16She cracked my head.
52:17You grounded her for a day.
52:19Minus thirty.
52:21She cut my hair.
52:22She slapped me a hundred times
52:24and you just stood there
52:25defending her.
52:28You drained
52:30every drop of love
52:31that I had for you, August.
52:33There is nothing left.
52:34I know I failed you,
52:35but I can change.
52:37Don't go run to Dane
52:38just to get back at me.
52:40I'm not with Dane to hurt you.
52:42I'm with Dane
