FunTranscript
00:00like champagne in the air the ballroom lights were warm and hazy like champagne in the air
00:05laughter, camera flashes and cool little cheers fill the room
00:10careful Matthew, my dress is expensive, don't ruin it too fast
00:13when I pushed the door open I saw my husband Matthew standing behind another woman
00:22her name was Serena Hayes
00:24she was leaning over the piano looking back at him a smile that felt like an invitation
00:28and a challenge and everyone around them was cheering like they were watching a show
00:33see I told them you're not boring
00:37show Mrs. Hayes what Mrs. Reed never gets to see
00:40that last line cut straight through me Mrs. Reed that was supposed to be my name
00:44for nine years Matthew was cold with me every time I reached for him he pulled away
00:49I thought he was just built that way but now he smiled at Serena like I had never seen before
00:54and tonight he told me he was taking Lily to a business meeting
00:58but this wasn't business it was his anniversary party with another woman so I walked through the
01:04crowd picked up the red wine and threw it on his face
01:07are you insane? Matthew instinctively pulled Serena behind him but the moment he saw me
01:11he froze I looked at his hand on her waist and laughed
01:14so this is your business meeting?
01:16the look on Matthew's face slowly turned cold
01:18Evelyn don't make a scene
01:20I opened my mouth to speak then a scream tore through the crowd behind me
01:25Lily rushed out of the crowd and protected Serena
01:27don't touch my mommy
01:31Lily
01:34I'm your mom
01:36no Serena is my mom
01:44no Serena is my mom
01:46wait the kid calls Serena mom?
01:50Lily's voice hit me like a slap
01:51I stood frozen barely able to hold on
01:54that was Lily the daughter I raised myself
01:57when she had her first fever I held her all night in a hospital hallway
02:01when she first performed on stage I clacked into my palm tree
02:05this morning I picked her pearl hairpin
02:07but now she looked at me like I was her enemy
02:10the way Lily looked at me felt like a knife in my chest
02:13Serena slowly knelt down holding Lily close
02:16it's okay baby
02:17mom it's fine
02:19Evelyn you shouldn't be here
02:22I shouldn't be here?
02:25you told me you were taking Lily to meet an important client?
02:28that was none of your business
02:29my husband?
02:32my daughter?
02:33none of my business?
02:35Evan oh it hurts to be replaced
02:37but breaking into our anniversary party and attacking me in front of a child
02:41that's too much
02:42your anniversary?
02:42yes mine and Serena's
02:45we ended a long time ago
02:47stop acting like my wife
02:48so she really is the ex-wife
02:51no wonder she was
02:52poor Serena imagine being attacked at your own party
02:57Matthew when did we end?
03:03the divorce was finalized two years ago
03:05what divorce?
03:07Evelyn don't make me embarrass you more
03:09I never signed this
03:12get her out before she ruins my family
03:18two guards in black suit stepped in and blocked me from both sides
03:22I stared at the papers in Matthew's hand
03:24black ink on white paper
03:26it said Matthew and I were divorced
03:29it even had my signature
03:30but I had never seen it
03:32I never signed anything
03:35that signature is fake
03:37Matthew was too calm
03:38like he'd rehearsed it
03:39Evelyn
03:40you were emotionally unstable back then
03:42you don't remember a lot of things
03:44I froze
03:44he was trying to make me look insane
03:46Serena held Lily inside softly
03:49I'm sorry Evelyn
03:51Matthew told me you had a hard time accepting the divorce
03:55that's scary
03:56she doesn't even remember signing divorce papers?
03:59maybe Matthew was right to keep the child away from her
04:01my chest burned with anger
04:02I pulled out my phone to show our marriage records
04:05photos, accounts, and trips
04:07enough
04:08I looked up at him
04:11afraid they'll see the truth?
04:13for one second his eyes cracked
04:15then the panic turned into anger
04:17give it back!
04:20Matthew smashed my phone onto the floor
04:22the screen cracked instantly
04:23the ballroom went silent again
04:24you planned this
04:26Matthew said nothing
04:27but Serena let out a soft laugh
04:28she held Lily and looked at me like she had won
04:30no one planned anything
04:32you were just too broken to remember
04:35Lily shrank into her arms
04:36and looked at me timidly
04:37daddy said you always make things worse
04:40my heart clenched
04:44take her out
04:45the guards grabbed my arms again
04:47this time I didn't fight
04:49I just looked at Matthew and asked softly
04:51who forged my signature?
04:54Matthew's eyes darkened instantly
04:55Serena's smile froze on her face
05:01Evelyn
05:03accusing people without evidence
05:05only makes you look worse
05:08evidence?
05:09you just destroyed my phone
05:11in front of everyone
05:12Matthew only did that
05:13because you were frightening Lily
05:15she scared the child
05:16Matthew was protecting Lily
05:18this has gone too far
05:19poor Serena
05:20I don't want her near me
05:21I looked at her
05:22my throat blocked
05:23I didn't understand
05:25how would she become like this?
05:27Evelyn I don't want to use my family name
05:29to pressure you
05:31but Harrington Industries
05:33won't tolerate someone humiliating me in public
05:37Harrington Industries?
05:39the Harrington family?
05:40that's old New York money
05:42and for your information
05:43Aiden Cole is my mentor
05:45if you keep making trouble
05:46he will handle it personally
05:47Aiden Cole?
05:49isn't he the top litigation lawyer?
05:51she's finished
05:52I shot my head up
05:53Aiden Cole
05:54my childhood friend
05:56and New York's top litigator
05:57you heard her
05:59Serena isn't someone
06:00you can afford to offend
06:02Serena dared to use his name
06:03I smiled and stopped looking at Matthew
06:05my broken phone was still barely lit
06:07I broke free
06:08picked it up
06:08and sent Aiden my location
06:10just five words
06:11someone is using your name
06:12Matthew saw what I was doing
06:13and his face changed
06:15he rushed over
06:16and crushed my phone under his shoe
06:17the screen went black
06:19gasps filled the ballroom
06:21I slowly stood up
06:23my knees aching
06:24my fingers shaking
06:25but I looked at Matthew
06:26and smiled
06:27you just made your second mistake tonight
06:31second?
06:33the first was letting her say Aiden Cole's name
06:39Matthew's face went completely cold
06:41Matt please
06:42I just want this to stop
06:44daddy make her go away
06:46he raised his hand
06:48signaling the guards
06:49remove her
06:53Matthew you can fake papers
06:55you can lie to them
06:56but you can't erase nine years
06:59I already did
07:10you really thought being a wife
07:12made you important
07:13you raised my daughter
07:15lived in my place
07:17and still lost everything
07:21what did you say?
07:23Serena's face froze
07:24Matthew shot her a warning look
07:26realizing she had slipped
07:28she stood up and played fragile again
07:30I said you're scaring my daughter
07:32what did she mean?
07:33Lily was my daughter
07:34how could she be Serena's?
07:37I struggled to stand and ask again
07:39but Matthew suddenly raised his hand
07:41and slapped me
07:42enough
07:45my face snapped to the side
07:46and I tasted blood
07:47just then the ballroom doors were thrown open
07:52take your hands off her
07:54everyone turned around
07:56funny
07:57I don't remember having a student like you
08:07the air seemed to vanish
08:09the color slowly drained from Serena's face
08:11but she quickly forced a smile
08:16a few guests started whispering too
08:18after all
08:20Aiden was a legal legend
08:21no one believed he would show up
08:23at Matthew's private party
08:24let alone defend a crazy ex-wife
08:27like me
08:28this is a private event
08:30leave before I call security
08:32Aiden didn't even look at him
08:33he walked straight to me
08:35knelt down
08:35and held my arm
08:37when he saw the mark on my face
08:38and the blood on my knee
08:39his eyes turned ice cold
08:42who did this?
08:44don't touch my ex-wife
08:45ex-wife?
08:46interesting
08:47because according to the state record
08:48I checked on my way there
08:49you and Evelyn Whitman, her read
08:51are still legally married
08:53that's impossible
08:55Aiden took his bar card
08:56and business card
08:57from inside his suit
08:58then tossed them
08:59onto the nearby table
09:00someone picked them up
09:02looked at them
09:03and gasped
09:03but it is him
09:05that's Aiden Cole
09:08you used my name
09:09to threaten my friend
09:10Serena opened her mouth
09:12but no words came out
09:13Mr. Cole
09:14this is a family matter
09:15no Matthew
09:16this is fraud
09:17assault
09:18identity theft
09:18and possibly medical conspiracy
09:21she attacked me first
09:23everyone saw it
09:25Aiden looked around
09:26at everyone
09:27holding up their phones
09:28good
09:30then everyone recorded
09:31what happened before that too
09:39soon police sirens sounded
09:41outside the estate
09:41officers entered the ballroom
09:43and frowned at the chaos
09:44Serena reacted first
09:47officer
09:48she broke into my anniversary party
09:50and attacked me
09:50in front of my child
09:51she scared me
09:52I don't want her near us
09:54it felt like another knife
09:55to the heart
09:55Matthew straightened his suit
09:57and became the polished lawyer again
09:58I'm Matthew Reed
09:59this is my wife Serena
10:00and that's my daughter Lily
10:01the woman on the floor
10:02is my ex-wife
10:03she has been harassing us
10:04for years
10:05he said it so naturally
10:06I almost wondered
10:07if those nine years
10:08had only been a dream
10:10he's lying
10:10I never divorced him
10:13the divorce papers
10:14are right here
10:15so is my marriage license
10:17with Serena
10:18the officer took the papers
10:19his expression uncertain
10:21those documents are forged
10:23that's a serious accusation
10:25pull the state court record
10:26now
10:27Aiden ignored him
10:28and called his assistant directly
10:31a few minutes later
10:32Aiden's phone rang
10:33he put it on speaker
10:34and his assistant's voice
10:36came through clearly
10:37Mr. Cole
10:38the divorce case number
10:39Matthew Reed provided
10:40does not exist
10:41every face in the room changed
10:43the officers exchanged a look
10:44and Serena clutched Lily in panic
10:46gasps rippled through the guests
10:48Aiden looked up at Matthew
10:49Matthew's smile vanished completely
10:51this case number is fake
11:00court systems make mistakes
11:01all the time
11:02then let's call the clerk's office
11:03Matthew rushed to defend himself
11:05his words were hasty
11:07self-soothing
11:08and futile
11:09Serena let go of his hand
11:10and stepped back
11:11I saw through their so-called love
11:14in an instant
11:17check this divorce case number
11:20the call got through
11:22exposing the truth
11:23Mr. Cole
11:23there is no such case
11:26there is no divorce case
11:27no divorce judgment
11:29the crowd gasped
11:30and fell silent
11:31Matthew tensed
11:32visibly flustered
11:33Serena teared up
11:35and chose self-preservation
11:36Matthew
11:37you told me everything was legal
11:40I trusted you
11:42I thought Evelyn
11:43was really your ex-wife
11:45Matthew glared at her
11:46speechless and helpless
11:48so which one is it
11:51I stepped forward
11:52my words sharp
11:53did you lie to me
11:55or did you lie to her
11:57Lily suddenly shouted
11:58through tears
11:58stop bullying daddy
12:00you're not my mom
12:01Serena is
12:02my chest tightened
12:03Serena held Lily tightly
12:05using her against me
12:06don't worry baby
12:08she's not your real mother anyway
12:10I froze completely
12:12the last warmth in my heart
12:14shattering instantly
12:17what did you say
12:22Serena's face paled
12:23in an instant
12:24she realized she had
12:25slipped up again
12:26but it was too late
12:27I had heard it
12:28I walked slowly
12:29towards Serena
12:30my voice icy
12:31and unfamiliar
12:32explain that
12:34I meant emotionally
12:35you never acted
12:36like a real mother
12:37really?

12:53Aiden's bodyguard
12:54blocked his path
12:56get out of my way
13:00then prove she's
13:01Evelyn's daughter too
13:02just then
13:03an unknown number
13:04called Aiden's phone
13:05Aiden glanced at the screen
13:07and handed me the phone
13:08it's the private medical center
13:10my heart dropped sharply
13:11Mrs. Reed
13:12there is a problem
13:13with Lily's genetic report
13:16my fingers turned ice cold
13:17in an instant
13:22the doctor's voice
13:23came through the phone
13:24sharp and merciless
13:26logically speaking
13:27Lily Reed is not
13:28your daughter
13:31does she have a
13:32biological link
13:33to Matthew Reed?

14:13Serena put her arm
14:14around Lily
14:15and struck the final blow
14:16with a cold smile
14:18and she loved me
14:20more than you
14:27at that moment
14:28my soul felt
14:28utterly empty
14:29nine long years
14:31I loved Lily
14:32with everything I had
14:34yet I was merely
14:34a nanny
14:35in their elaborate lie
14:37Matthew kept
14:38trying to explain
14:40Evelyn
14:41I didn't plan
14:41for it to go this far

15:06I hid my wealthy roots
15:08and abandoned my family
15:09for him
15:09Serena forced
15:11a defiant smile
15:12who are these people?

18:32I set you up

18:36and now you're letting me
18:37take the fall
18:38they tore each other apart
18:39in public

18:56the second the cold handcuffs
18:58clicked shut
18:58he panicked completely
19:00Evelyn

19:01I walked away
19:03without looking back
19:08after Matthew
19:09was cuffed
19:09Lily finally panicked
19:10Serena was detained
19:12unable to pretend anymore
19:13her two protectors
19:15had fallen completely
19:16alone in the crowd
19:17Lily was terrified
19:18she glanced at them
19:20then ran to me in tears
19:22mommy
19:24I'm sorry
19:25daddy said
19:26you didn't love us
19:27I stared at her familiar face
19:29I was once her only shelter
19:31yet a huge gap
19:33now lies between us
19:34Lily begged me
19:35with tearful eyes
19:36I want to go home with you
19:38I lifted my hand
19:39then slowly knelt down
19:42I was your mother
19:44tonight
19:45you chose yours
19:48she burst into heavier tears
19:50my voice was calm
19:51yet final
19:52child protective services
19:54walked in
19:55due to the fraud case
19:56she required temporary guardianship assessment
20:03the next day
20:05the scandal swept across New York
20:06every headline was blindingly harsh
20:09top New York lawyer accused of marriage fraud
20:12fake heiress scandal at Hampton Estate
20:14hidden banquet footage leaked online
20:16all the truth was compiled into viral clips
20:20their affair
20:21Lily's wrong choice
20:22forged documents
20:23and fake identities
20:24were all exposed
20:25reporters swarmed Matthew's law firm
20:28Serena's socialite dream shattered completely
20:30her family's so-called high society became a joke
20:33I turned down all interviews
20:36I stayed at Whitmore's private hospital
20:38Aiden visited me every day
20:40that afternoon
20:41he handed me a document
20:42the medical records were altered
20:44IVF signed by Matthew
20:46your consent was forged
20:48my fingers trembled as I held it
20:51can we prove it
20:52yes
20:55I closed my eyes and made my final decision
20:59then bury him with it
21:01Aiden looked at me firmly
21:06three months later
21:07the court trial began
21:09reporters gathered outside the court
21:11haggard Matthew sat in the defendant's seat
21:13Serena sat silently
21:15all arrogance gone
21:16they turned against each other
21:18no longer meeting eyes
21:19Aiden represented me in court
21:21this is not a failed marriage
21:23this is a calculated erasure of a woman's legal identity
21:26motherhood and life
21:28the defense would like to remind the court
21:30that Evelyn is Mr. Hammond's ex-wife
21:33her jealousy knows no bounds
21:36your honor the footage speaks for itself
21:39Aiden skipped arguments
21:40and played the evidence
21:41the footage exposed their intimacy in public
21:45Matthew hung his head
21:47too ashamed to watch
21:48Aiden presented solid evidence
21:50all divorce proof was forged
21:52the child's medical records were tampered with
21:54at that moment
21:55Serena burst out
21:56Matthew told me Evelyn was useful
21:59only because of her money
22:00Matthew looked up in utter shock
22:07Serena betrayed him to save herself
22:09she confessed Lily was their daughter
22:12she exposed Matthew's nine-year scheme
22:14he said Evelyn wanted a family
22:17more than anything
22:18he said once she became a mother
22:20she would never leave
22:22Evelyn will raise the child
22:23she has the money
22:24the patience
22:25and the name
22:26Serena you and I just need to wait
22:28she submitted crucial audio evidence
22:30his true scheme echoed through the court
22:32the court broke into shocked whispers
22:34Matthew broke down completely
22:37you wanted this too
22:38you wanted Yuri to settle
22:39after said do well
22:40because you promised me
22:41I'd be Mrs. Reed
22:42the two tore each other apart in public
22:45Matthew masterminded all the forgery
22:47he wanted my resources
22:48while keeping his mistress
22:50he used both women
22:51as his stepping stones
22:52one raised his child
22:54the other upheld his reputation
22:56Matthew suddenly turned to me
22:58red-eyed he begged humbly
23:00Eve please
23:01I loved you
23:02I looked at him
23:03feeling nothing but disgust
23:08I finally took the witness stand
23:10the courtroom fell dead silent
23:12everyone waited for my breakdown
23:14but I remained calm
23:16I looked straight at Matthew
23:18and spoke softly
23:19he didn't just cheat on me
23:20he erased me
23:21I paused briefly
23:22Matthew stared at me tearfully
23:24I don't ask the court to punish him
23:26because he broke my heart
23:29I asked the court to punish him
23:33I asked the court to punish him
23:36because he used the law as a weapon
23:38Matthew Reed is convicted of marriage fraud
23:41forgery and medical record tappering
23:43permanently disbarred
23:44Serena Hayes is convicted of conspiracy fraud
23:46Denise and Frank Hayes face commercial fraud penalties
23:49minor child Lily shall be placed under child protective services
23:52for guardianship
23:53before being taken away
23:54Matthew called my name
23:56Evelyn
23:56I removed my wedding ring
23:58I watched him
23:59resolute
24:00you erased me first
24:01now I erase you
24:03Aiden's eyes flickered slightly
24:05the final verdict was delivered
24:07Matthew was convicted of multiple felonies
24:13months later
24:14I returned to Whitmore capital
24:15dressed in a sharp black suit
24:17I returned poised and steady
24:19ready?
24:19ready
24:21I stared at the seat
24:22that had always been mine
24:24father looked at me with relief
24:25and pity
24:28after the meeting
24:28the media waited downstairs
24:30Mrs. Whitfield
24:31do you regret marrying Matthew Reed?
24:33I faced the camera calmly
24:34no
24:36I regret forgetting who I was
24:38I tried a time stare
24:39and wanted to be lost
24:43back at my office
24:44Aiden waited for me
24:45with two cups of coffee
24:46black coffee
24:47no sugar
24:52you still remember?
24:55I remember before you forgot yourself
24:59I sealed the ring
25:00burying nine years of delusions
25:02I stood by the window
25:04overlooking the vast city
25:06free from all shackles
25:08and worldly identities
25:09through all hardships
25:11I found my true self
25:18Alara
25:18you've held the Lunar's seat long enough
25:21without your family support securing Caleb's rise
25:23you wouldn't have sat there at all
25:25Alara
25:25I will be crowned as the new king tomorrow
25:27Lunar title belongs to Sarah
25:29if you're still alive
25:30how could that be?
25:31and they poured poison down my throat
25:33I died
25:33the day Caleb became king
25:35then
25:35I opened my eyes
25:36I was back
25:37my bonding day
25:38the hostess called across the bonding chamber
25:40please
25:41Alfa and Luna
25:42drink from the Union Cup
25:43I stared at the cup in front of me
25:45Sarah was careless
25:46the powder she'd used
25:48hadn't even been wiped clean off the rim
25:51Sarah
25:51slipped a sterility potion into my cup
25:55when it was discovered
25:56she only saw
25:59she fell to her knees
26:01I didn't mean to hurt her
26:02who knew she would really drink it
26:04Caleb pulled me aside
26:06Alara
26:06as the true Luna
26:07you should be generous
26:08Sarah will pay for my mistake
26:10I'll enter the pack as a lesser mate
26:11any pups I bear
26:12will be raised by the Luna
26:13from that moment on
26:14I became the Luna
26:16who could not give birth
26:17Sarah and Caleb
26:18shared a life full of warmth
26:20two sons
26:21two daughters
26:22everyone in the city knew Sarah
26:24no one remembered
26:25the true Luna existed
26:26a cold calm settled over me
26:29I reached over
26:30and swapped my cup for Caleb's
26:32I lowered my lashes
26:33let a soft flush color my cheeks
26:36I'd like us to swap cups
26:37my lord
26:39I heard it makes the bond last longer
26:41that's right
26:42the hostess clapped
26:43you and me
26:43me and you
26:44that's how love lasts
26:46Caleb raised his cup
26:48we drank
26:49the guests cheered
26:50the cups hadn't even hit the table
26:52before the doors burst open
26:54oh my
26:55you already drank?
26:58that is here
26:59when she saw the empty cup
27:00in front of me
27:01her eyes immediately filled with tears
27:04she turned to Caleb
27:05my lord
27:06I'm so sorry
27:07I only wanted to tease the Luna
27:09I put something in her cup
27:10I gasped
27:11let my face go white
27:12who are you?
27:13why would you drug my drink?
27:15Miss Sarah
27:15tonight is the Alpha's bonding night
27:17how could you think this was acceptable?
27:20Luna
27:20this is Sarah
27:21we grew up together
27:22she's always been a little reckless
27:24don't make a scene
27:25the room went still
27:26Caleb stood
27:27stepped in front of Sarah
27:28what are you doing here?
27:29I told you today was off limits
27:30Miss Sarah
27:31what exactly did you put in my cup?
27:33my attendant snapped you
27:34now
27:34my lord
27:35I wasn't trying to hurt anyone
27:37I saw someone selling a fertility blocking potion
27:40I just wanted to scare her a little
27:42make her more obedient to you
27:43I planned to rush in before you drank
27:45but I tripped outside
27:46I pressed a hand to my chest
27:48a fertility blocking potion?
27:50that cup was a gift from the high council
27:52I looked at the guards
27:53take her
27:54Sarah Shree buried her face in Caleb's chest
27:56I swear I didn't mean it
27:57and besides
27:58who knows if the potion even works
28:00it could be fake
28:00are you gonna have me punished
28:02for something that might not even be real?
28:03Caleb held her gently
28:04Alara
28:05Sarah's young
28:06she didn't mean to go this far
28:07you're my Luna
28:09bonded properly
28:11even if you drank it
28:12I won't abandon you
28:13your place is secure
28:15Sarah's tear-reddened eyes fell in line
28:16all my fault
28:17she hit the floor with a thud
28:18I'm so sorry Luna
28:19since the Luna can no longer carry pups
28:21I'll enter the pack as a lesser mate
28:23every pup I carry will be raised under her name
28:27same line
28:28just like last time
28:29this time
28:30I wasn't going to be a fool
28:31I let my face go
28:33you tampered with the high council's bonding cup
28:35to block the alpha's bloodline
28:37that's a crime against the pack
28:38that's a death sentence
28:39Caleb pulled Sarah up
28:40around at me
28:41she wasn't trying to harm anyone
28:42are you really calling for execution
28:43over a potion that might not even work?
28:45she poisoned your Luna
28:46in front of the whole pack
28:47I turned to face Sarah directly
28:48and you're defending her
28:50remember who I am
28:52don't act like what she did means nothing
28:54what's done is done
28:55what more do you want?
28:57Caleb's expression darkened
28:58she didn't do it on purpose
28:59the commotion spread
29:00Luna
29:02alpha's mother says this cannot escalate
29:04Sarah will be punished
29:05but tonight is the binding ceremony
29:07the pack's reputation is at stake
29:09of course it didn't matter
29:09it wasn't happening to them
29:11do you truly think what she did was a small thing?
29:14Caleb was still murmuring to Sarah
29:16he barely glanced at me
29:17she'll copy the pack conduct codes ten times
29:19no more disruptions
29:21I almost laughed
29:22good thing I wasn't the one
29:23who drank the drugged cup
29:25a female guest nearby
29:26Luna you should still have the healer check on you
29:28yes maybe there's still something that can be done
29:30Sarah immediately cut in
29:31calling a healer on a binding night is bad luck
29:33Sarah's right
29:34wait until tomorrow
29:35I looked at Caleb one last time
29:37my lord are you truly not going to hold her accountable?
29:40she was joking
29:40it got out of hand
29:42she's offered to carry pups in your name
29:44what else do you want?
29:45you're clinging to one cup
29:46ruining your own bonding night
29:48if you don't want to be Luna
29:49step aside
29:50I smiled
29:50I ran one finger along the rim of the cup
29:53then I looked at him
29:54Petty?
29:54everything I've done tonight has been for you
29:56my lord
29:57because the one who just drank from my cup was you
30:00Caleb's face turned grey
30:01what are you s-
30:02I didn't know it
30:03I was too late
30:03and I was the one who just drank the door
30:04in the bedroom
30:04I thought that's pretty funny
30:04it had me in asın
30:04but it's pretty neat
30:04I told her...
