Short filmTranscript
00:00:06My name is Julian Mitchell, captain of the Apex Strike Team. I'm staring down 300 drug cartel gunmen.
00:00:20Captain, mission's done. Let's move.
00:00:24You all fall back. I'm avenging Owen.
00:00:35I survived hell on the battlefield only to get cornered by a woman three months later.
00:00:51No way. It's just a few pieces of clothing.
00:00:54Please cooperate for a check.
00:00:58What happened?
00:01:03There really is something!
00:01:09Take your clothes off.
00:01:12What's actually on the guy?
00:01:19I'm Julian Mitchell. I've served for eight years. Captain of the Apex Strike Team.
00:01:30Oh jeez, look at all these scars on him. He's definitely been through a lot.
00:01:36Hold on! There's a bullet lodged in his spine, stuck right between the bones!
00:01:40A bullet? Did I hear that right? And he's still alive?
00:01:47Miss, can I go now? My flight was about to take off.
00:01:58I do my best to hide these scars, just to reunite with my sister.
00:02:03Today, I'm finally home.
00:02:08But all I see are unfamiliar skyscrapers.
00:02:12After ten years on secret missions, I have no idea how my family is doing.
00:02:18Alright, here we are. This is the old neighborhood, yeah?
00:02:20I have no idea.
00:02:39Stop it! Calm down!
00:02:42Oh no! Who is he? How did he get in? I'm not even wearing clothes.
00:02:46Oh god! What do I do?
00:02:49Who are you? Why are you in my house?
00:02:55I... I... you...
00:03:00I double checked. And I'm definitely in the right place.
00:03:05I've got to figure out who this strange woman is.
00:03:10This can't be good.
00:03:12You bastard! I'm going to kill you!
00:03:18Wait! I can explain!
00:03:20Explain? Save it! You're done for!
00:03:24Wait. Just put the knife down.
00:03:36My knife!
00:03:37I'm not a bad guy. I'm Julian Mitchell.
00:03:41This is my old house.
00:03:44I came back to find my sister.
00:03:48Ruby Mitchell.
00:03:50You're Ruby's brother, the soldier?
00:03:51Teacher?
00:04:00I'm Serenity Shaw. Ruby's homeroom teacher.
00:04:03She's Ruby's teacher.
00:04:04Then where's Ruby?
00:04:06Mrs. Shaw?
00:04:07Do you know where Ruby is?
00:04:14Ruby.
00:04:17She... she's at the hospital.
00:04:19She's not doing well.
00:04:28Don't worry. I'm here.
00:04:30The doctor said she'll be fine.
00:04:32If we can find a kidney.
00:04:33She's a sweet kid.
00:04:35Always talking about you.
00:04:37Go on in.
00:04:52Julian.
00:04:55Julian!
00:04:57Ruby, I'm back.
00:04:58And I'm never leaving again.
00:05:06Julian.
00:05:07Our mom.
00:05:08She passed away.
00:05:09She's buried at Eckrey Hill Cemetery.
00:05:12She...
00:05:12She didn't want me to tell you.
00:05:19Are you Ruby Mitchell's family?
00:05:21The director needs to see you in his office.
00:05:23We found a suitable kidney.
00:05:26Really?
00:05:26I'll be right there.
00:05:34The surgery and recovery will cost at least a million dollars.
00:05:39We can only keep the kidney for seven days.
00:05:47Five years in hell.
00:05:49And all I have is a hundred and thirty seven thousand dollars.
00:05:52I need to come up with a million.
00:05:54No matter what it takes.
00:05:58Security guard.
00:05:59Thirty five hundred dollars a month.
00:06:02Construction worker.
00:06:04Two hundred dollars a day.
00:06:05Compared to a million.
00:06:07That's just a drop in the bucket.
00:06:16What's your education?
00:06:18Any sales experience?
00:06:20Middle school diploma.
00:06:22But are you kidding me?
00:06:24Get lost.
00:06:25Don't waste my time.
00:06:41Miss.
00:06:42Miss.
00:06:42Are you alright?
00:06:44Who the hell are you?
00:06:46I don't even know you.
00:06:46I don't even know you.
00:06:47Get your hands off me.
00:06:59Let me go.
00:07:00Help.
00:07:01Hey beautiful.
00:07:02Why don't you come have some fun with us in the alley?
00:07:08I wasn't going to get involved, but I can't just watch these scumbags mess with a woman.
00:07:18Leave her alone.
00:07:22Leave her alone.
00:07:24Trying to be a hero, huh?
00:07:26You're biting off more than you can shoot.
00:07:28Be smart and get lost or I'll make you regret it.
00:07:31Scumbags.
00:07:42Are you okay?
00:07:43Yeah.
00:07:44I'm okay.
00:07:45Thank you for saving me.
00:07:48I'm freaked out.
00:07:50I've had a few drinks.
00:07:51Could you walk me home?
00:07:52I'm Hayley Chapman.
00:07:55So what's your name?
00:07:58Julian Mitchell.
00:08:07I'm sorry.
00:08:09I didn't mean to.
00:08:11Let me wipe it off for you.
00:08:16Sorry, I grabbed the wrong thing.
00:08:17Um, my place isn't far from here.
00:08:19Why don't you come over and get cleaned up?
00:08:21I can find you some clean clothes.
00:08:25Alright.
00:08:37What's your number?
00:08:39I'll wash and iron your clothes.
00:08:42Then return them to you tomorrow.
00:08:44That's okay.
00:08:45I can wash them myself.
00:08:46It's getting late.
00:08:47I should get going.
00:08:55No matter what, I'll get the money for your treatment.
00:09:03Seeing her weak like that breaks my heart.
00:09:15Beat me.
00:09:17Or beat everyone else here.
00:09:19And you're in.
00:09:20I'm not here to waste time.
00:09:22My expected annual salary is 1 million.
00:09:25This twig wants a million?
00:09:29This twig wants a million?
00:09:30This twig wants a million?
00:09:54I was a soldier.
00:09:56I was a soldier.
00:09:56There's no one I respect more than a soldier.
00:10:01I'm not hiring a bodyguard for myself, but for my daughter.
00:10:07It's a million dollars a year for round-the-clock close protection.
00:10:11Are you up for it?
00:10:13I am.
00:10:14As I said that, all I could think was, with that kind of money to save Ruby, I'd protect
00:10:19whoever it is with my life, no matter the cost.
00:10:22Good.
00:10:23Sign it.
00:10:27Sir, I have one request.
00:10:29I'd like to receive my first year's salary in advance.
00:10:32Alright.
00:10:33I trust you.
00:10:44With that money, Ruby can get the treatment.
00:10:47She can have the surgery.
00:10:49All the hardship was worth it.
00:10:51And there she was.
00:10:53This beautiful woman in front of me is the person I'm assigned to protect.
00:10:56The CEO of PICFIA Group, Gianna Palmer.
00:10:59Who are you?
00:11:02Who are you?
00:11:04And what are you doing in my dad's office?
00:11:06Gianna, this is the bodyguard I hired for you, Julian.
00:11:09Some suspicious people have been spotted near the company.
00:11:12Your safety is my top priority.
00:11:13He'll be providing you with around-the-clock protection.
00:11:15Dad, are you crazy?
00:11:17I don't need a bodyguard, and I definitely don't need some stranger following me at all times.
00:11:21You can have your way on everything else, but on this, I need you to listen to me.
00:11:31This is insane.
00:11:32I have to get rid of this blockhead.
00:11:41Whatever my dad is paying you, I'll double it.
00:11:43Just take the money and leave.
00:11:45Pretend you were never here.
00:11:48I've already signed a contract with your dad.
00:11:50Three million dollars.
00:11:51Four million.
00:11:52Five million.
00:11:53Six million.
00:11:54I'll give you six million!
00:11:56Now get out of my sight!
00:11:57Looks like she is quite a character, but I just need to do my job.
00:12:00The rest is none of my concern.
00:12:02Fine.
00:12:03So you've got some backbone, huh?
00:12:06I'm heading back to the office now.
00:12:08Let's see you try and keep up.
00:12:09No way a guy on foot is keeping up with my million dollar sports car.
00:12:13No matter where you run, I will keep up.
00:12:27Are you even human?
00:12:29She's going into the underground parking garage alone.
00:12:31If there's an ambush, it could get ugly.
00:12:33I have to get in there.
00:12:35He actually caught up.
00:12:37Who is this guy anyway?
00:12:41Stop.
00:12:43Who are you?
00:12:44This is a private building.
00:12:47Get lost if you've got no business here.
00:12:49Please, let me in.
00:12:51I'm a private bodyguard.
00:12:52My client just drove into the underground garage.
00:12:54I have to make sure she's safe.
00:12:56A bodyguard?
00:12:58We weren't notified.
00:12:59Stop lying and get out of here.
00:13:03I bet you're a thief trying to case the joint.
00:13:06This is a high-end office building.
00:13:08Not for scum like you.
00:13:09You're really asking for it, you little punk.
00:13:12What are you standing here for?
00:13:14You want me to have security toss you out?
00:13:20That hurts!
00:13:21Let's go!
00:13:22You son of a bitch, let me go!
00:13:24I just need to find Gianna.
00:13:26As for this clown, I'm barely even trying.
00:13:27If you get in my way again, it's gonna hurt a lot worse.
00:13:30You bastard!
00:13:31Everyone!
00:13:32Grab your batons and get to the main gate right now!
00:13:35Someone's trying to force his way in!
00:13:37Get over here and take him down!
00:13:48This is hardly a warm-up.
00:13:50You think you can take on all twenty of us alone?
00:13:52We'll break your legs!
00:13:53Get lost!
00:13:54Get lost!
00:13:54Get lost!
00:13:58Get lost!
00:13:59Is it that hard to take you guys down?
00:14:01Get him!
00:14:02Beat the hell out of him!
00:14:04I'll take the blade for whatever happens!
00:14:09What's going on?
00:14:10Are they gonna beat that guy up?
00:14:12Holy crap!
00:14:14Who is that guy?
00:14:15You're asking for it, you punk!
00:14:18Guys, get him!
00:14:25Damn, he's a total badass
00:14:27Taking on the entire security team by himself
00:14:36Stop!
00:14:37I think she's the woman I saved
00:14:39She seems really important
00:14:40Julian, are you okay?
00:14:42Are you hurt?
00:14:44They didn't do anything to you, did they?
00:14:45I'm fine, don't worry
00:14:47They can't hurt me
00:14:53Lincoln, what were you thinking?
00:14:55Having your men gang up on one person like that?
00:14:57He's my friend
00:14:59And he was just looking for me
00:15:01Miss Chapman, this is a misunderstanding
00:15:03I didn't know he was your friend
00:15:05My apologies
00:15:06I'm so sorry
00:15:08Please forgive me
00:15:10I almost offended someone important
00:15:13Who is she really?
00:15:28Julian, are you here for me?
00:15:31Looking at this woman who was wasted last night
00:15:35I wonder why she's asking that
00:15:40No
00:15:42Then what are you doing here?
00:15:44I'm a bodyguard
00:15:48Don't tell me you work for Gianna
00:15:52Hayley, how'd it go?
00:15:54Did you get rid of that annoying guy?
00:15:56I never want to see him again
00:16:00Julian, you've breached the contract
00:16:02You're fired
00:16:03Your dad signed the contract
00:16:06He's the only one who can fire me
00:16:11I don't want to see you right now
00:16:14Get out
00:16:18So annoying
00:16:20He just won't leave me alone
00:16:26Well, this is getting interesting
00:16:34I'm Adeline Foster, Ms. Palmer's secretary
00:16:36This is your office
00:16:37Okay
00:16:38Let me know if you need anything
00:16:39Thanks
00:16:42Life's way too easy now
00:16:44A total 180 from how it used to be
00:16:46A seven-figure salary
00:16:48An air-conditioned office
00:16:50But I know this job isn't as easy as it looks
00:16:54Gianna is surrounded by danger
00:17:09No more smoking outside my office
00:17:11This is a place of business
00:17:13Not your personal smoking lounge
00:17:17Yes, Ms. Palmer
00:17:28Gianna, you're finally off
00:17:30I've been waiting for you
00:17:31Let's go get some dinner
00:17:32Sorry, Luke
00:17:33I'm busy tonight
00:17:34And please
00:17:35Stop showing up here
00:17:37This is my assistant
00:17:38Julian Mitchell
00:17:43Good to see you, Julian
00:17:47Let's go
00:17:54This guy who totally looks like a trust fund kid
00:17:56Is holding a bouquet of roses waiting for my client
00:17:59Gianna, you're free tonight, right?
00:18:01Let me take you out for dinner
00:18:02I've already booked a table
00:18:04Hey, you
00:18:05What do you think you're doing?
00:18:06I'm Ms. Palmer's personal bodyguard
00:18:08Of course I'm getting in the car
00:18:09You?
00:18:10This idiot seems to be trying to show off in front of Gianna
00:18:13But he picked the wrong guy
00:18:15A bodyguard?
00:18:16Don't get my car dirty
00:18:17Get lost
00:18:21You better keep your hands to yourself
00:18:23Still trying to act tough, huh?
00:18:25So what if I do get physical?
00:18:28The crowd watches
00:18:29As Luke spins a full 720 degrees in the air
00:18:32From the sheer force of the slap
00:18:39You!
00:18:40You're gonna regret this!
00:18:42I won't let you get away with it!
00:18:50Shit, you hit me?
00:18:51My car!
00:18:52I just bought this!
00:18:54Security!
00:18:54Where the hell is everybody?
00:18:56Get this bastard!
00:18:57I want him in jail!
00:18:59Wait, Luke
00:19:00It's a misunderstanding
00:19:01He's my distant relative
00:19:03He just came from the countryside
00:19:04He doesn't know any better
00:19:05What?
00:19:06A distant relative?
00:19:07Him?
00:19:08Gianna, since when do you have a distant relative like this?
00:19:11I've never heard you mention him
00:19:12It's true
00:19:13He's a distant cousin
00:19:14I've known him since we were kids
00:19:16He didn't know what he was doing just now
00:19:17Please, don't stoop to his level
00:19:19I'll make it up to you
00:19:20I'll make a reservation at your favorite restaurant, okay?
00:19:22I'm not apologizing to someone like that
00:19:24Why is Gianna so nervous?
00:19:26She even glared at me
00:19:27What are you waiting for?
00:19:28Let's go
00:19:31Gianna!
00:19:33Gianna!
00:19:34Gianna!
00:19:34This isn't over!
00:19:36You hear me?
00:19:36It's not over!
00:19:38And don't forget what you said about dinner!
00:19:46Julian, do you have any idea who you just messed with?
00:19:49That was Luke Watson, heir to the Watson Group
00:19:51His father is Wyatt Watson, chairman of Sruestol Realty
00:19:55You hit him, and you wrecked his car?
00:19:58He is not gonna let this go
00:20:01Here, take this
00:20:03That's two million dollars
00:20:04It's more than enough to start over anywhere
00:20:07You're leaving the city
00:20:08Tonight
00:20:10My duty is to protect you
00:20:12Don't worry about Luke coming after me
00:20:14Take this back
00:20:15You!
00:20:16Why are you being so stubborn?
00:20:20His father is Wyatt Watson
00:20:22That big shot from Sruestol Realty
00:20:25It doesn't matter if it's Wyatt Watson or anyone else
00:20:29Like I said
00:20:30My only job is to protect you
00:20:55Fuck
00:20:56Fuck
00:21:07Listen up, Julian
00:21:09Don't push your luck
00:21:10You want money?
00:21:11Name your price
00:21:13Just take the money and disappear
00:21:16After that, you're on your own
00:21:21Julian, I'm going home now
00:21:23Are you gonna follow me?
00:21:24My job is to ensure you have round-the-clock security
00:21:26I live alone
00:21:27And you, a grown man, are following me constantly
00:21:29I need my space
00:21:29I won't enter your home or disturb your life
00:21:32I'll just guard you from outside
00:21:39She was furious
00:21:40But I couldn't leave
00:21:42There are people lurking in the dark
00:21:44The moment I step away
00:21:46She could be in danger
00:21:54Julian
00:21:56What exactly are you trying to do?
00:21:58Miss Palmer
00:21:59Do you really have to push me like this?
00:22:03I'm just doing my job
00:22:07Is that so?
00:22:15A bodyguard posts at my door overnight?
00:22:17People will think there's been a break-in
00:22:18It's just my job
00:22:19You blockhead
00:22:21If you freeze solid out here
00:22:22I'll be the one dealing with the cops
00:22:23I'm saying this one last time
00:22:25Get inside
00:22:26But seeing her so angry and worried
00:22:28I just couldn't refuse
00:22:32You'll stay in this room
00:22:33My bedroom's upstairs
00:22:35And you're not allowed up there without my permission
00:22:37Thank you, Miss Palmer
00:22:38No worries
00:22:39Even if it was just a stray animal outside
00:22:41I'd feel sorry for it
00:22:47Julian
00:22:48I have a boyfriend
00:22:49And we're getting engaged soon
00:22:51So don't get any funny ideas about me
00:22:53You're my employee
00:22:55That's all
00:22:55Funny ideas?
00:22:57The only thing on my mind is Ruby's surgery
00:23:01I don't have time for that kind of nonsense
00:23:06Trust me, Miss Palmer
00:23:07I know the boundaries
00:23:09Good
00:23:11My boyfriend is very possessive
00:23:13So
00:23:14You'd better stay in your lane
00:23:16Miss Palmer, um
00:23:17Just say it
00:23:18Stop hemming and howling like a schoolgirl
00:23:22Well
00:23:22Your belt is coming undone
00:23:27Julian, you did that on purpose
00:23:28You just wanted to embarrass me
00:23:30No
00:23:31I just noticed it
00:23:32Get out
00:23:34Right now
00:23:35Immediately
00:23:37Freeze to death
00:23:38Good riddice
00:23:42Last night
00:23:43I accidentally caught Jana exposed
00:23:45Since she woke up
00:23:46She haven't said a word
00:23:48Get in the car
00:23:51What's her deal?
00:23:54I sprint after the car
00:23:55But the old wound in my back starts throbbing
00:23:58And I can't catch up
00:24:00A taxi comes by
00:24:01I rush into the middle of the road
00:24:03And stand right in front of it
00:24:04The taxi has no choice
00:24:06But it sweeps to a stop
00:24:08What the hell, man?
00:24:09You got a death wish?
00:24:11What's the rush?
00:24:12Why chase after that car?
00:24:16God
00:24:17Move over
00:24:18I'm driving
00:24:20Whoa, whoa
00:24:26Slow down
00:24:27Look, I'm sorry
00:24:28Just slow down
00:24:29The taxi engine gave out
00:24:31Just as I arrived at Gianna's company
00:24:33She'd led me on a long chase
00:24:35Just to vent her anger
00:24:39Help, please
00:24:50Help, he's harassing me
00:24:52Someone help me
00:25:05Thank you so much
00:25:07I was almost assaulted by him
00:25:09Sir
00:25:10No, it's not what you think
00:25:12Forget it
00:25:13I should just get back to following Gianna
00:25:15Get lost
00:25:16Thank you
00:25:17May I ask your name?
00:25:21I have to go
00:25:26Does he seriously not recognize me?
00:25:29I'm a celebrity after all
00:25:39Never thought I'd run into a celebrity while driving this beat-up cab
00:25:42Even if asking for a signature caused a bit of a mix-up
00:25:45It was totally worth it
00:25:46That was awesome
00:25:48Those two were so weird
00:25:49Whatever, none of my business
00:25:55So that woman's a celebrity
00:25:56And the cabbie was on top of her because he was asking for an autograph
00:25:59He said he was going home
00:26:01Not to chat with a girl
00:26:10Hey handsome
00:26:12Can I get your number?
00:26:14How did a hick like you even get in here?
00:26:17Look at what you're wearing
00:26:18You think you belong at the Pyctia Group?
00:26:21Security, get him out
00:26:22Another snob
00:26:24Judging people just by their clothes
00:26:26How pathetic
00:26:31Taylor
00:26:32This is Julian Mitchell
00:26:33Miss Palmer's assistant
00:26:41Julian
00:26:41I'm so sorry
00:26:43I shouldn't have called you a hick
00:26:46I was being a complete snob
00:26:48Please, forgive me
00:26:50Clothes and diplomas don't define a person
00:26:53Don't let it happen again
00:27:03Ruby
00:27:05I got a job
00:27:05So I can't be with you all the time
00:27:15Julian, you're only doing this to pay for my surgery
00:27:18I'm the one who should be sorry
00:27:24Gianna didn't have me dress up just for show
00:27:27She needed me to go with her to inspect the factory
00:27:29As her assistant and bodyguard
00:27:31I have to look sharp at all times
00:27:43He has such a great profile
00:27:46The way he smokes is so cool
00:27:49Julian, quit showing off
00:27:51Gianna is looking for you
00:27:52Come on
00:27:55Julian, can we get your number?
00:27:57Let's keep in touch
00:28:03You must be feeling pretty pleased with yourself
00:28:05These people are ridiculous
00:28:07I just want to do my job
00:28:08And make money for Ruby's treatment
00:28:10Why did she say that?
00:28:13Miss Palmer, what did you say?
00:28:18I have to stay with you
00:28:20It's my job
00:28:31I can clearly smell her fake perfume
00:28:33And feel how soft her waist is
00:28:36She's blushing
00:28:38My heart starts racing
00:28:39And for a moment
00:28:41I completely forget to let go
00:28:44Julian, you did this on purpose
00:28:46I'm going to tell my dad to fire you
00:28:48Fine, fire me
00:28:50Oh crap
00:28:56Julian!
00:29:04Thank God she's fine
00:29:07You
00:29:08You
00:29:15Can we hold off on firing me
00:29:17Till I recover from my injury?
00:29:19Why did you do that?
00:29:25Someone paid me $3,000
00:29:26Did you scare Miss Palmer?
00:29:29$3,000
00:29:31That's all a life is worth?
00:29:33I was too nervous
00:29:34I went overboard with the force
00:29:37I'm not calling the police
00:29:38But you're fired
00:29:40My wife has cancer
00:29:42And my daughter's in college
00:29:46She's hesitating
00:29:48I think I'm seeing a softer side to her
00:29:51She's the first person to make me feel like there's still some good in this world
00:29:55Is he still bleeding?
00:29:56We're going to the Ryodo hospital
00:29:58You should get that head wound checked out
00:30:01She's worried about me
00:30:03Ryodo hospital
00:30:04Okay
00:30:10You idiot
00:30:11You didn't even do anything about your wound
00:30:13Even the doctors were shocked
00:30:15I got hit by something so heavy
00:30:18But walked away with just a few scratches
00:30:21Where to next Miss Palmer?
00:30:24Take me home first
00:30:25Then you can head to the Uriana Villian
00:30:27Haley is waiting for you there
00:30:29When did she accept Haley's dinner invitation for me?
00:30:31If you're not going
00:30:33Then neither am I
00:30:36You
00:30:36I'm giving you the night off
00:30:39I'll lock everything up
00:30:40And I'll be perfectly safe
00:30:44We haven't found the person behind the attack at the factory
00:30:48I have to stay with you
00:30:50Are you going or not?
00:30:52I'm not
00:30:55So stubborn
00:31:06Who are you people?
00:31:10My buddies are looking for some cash
00:31:13Don't put up a fight
00:31:16Broad daylight
00:31:17And you're pulling this robbery stunt?
00:31:21What a naive little princess
00:31:24Robbery?
00:31:25This is collecting protection money
00:31:27We've been waiting for a while
00:31:29So don't make this hard on us
00:31:31You
00:31:32Stay away from me
00:31:39Miss Palmer
00:31:40Just stay put
00:31:42You
00:31:44Be careful
00:31:46Well look at the knight in shining armor
00:31:51This is none of your business
00:31:53Step aside
00:31:55Her business is my business
00:32:03Julian watch out
00:32:04They've got knives
00:32:09Back off if you know what's good for you
00:32:12Julian catches one thug's wrist and squeezes
00:32:15The man shrieks in pain
00:32:16Dropping his knife
00:32:23My hand
00:32:24My head
00:32:25And just like that
00:32:27I understood why Gianna's dad hired me
00:32:31She's made plenty of enemies
00:32:35You've got some moves
00:32:36Too bad you ran into me
00:32:38I was a freaking champion fighter back in the day
00:32:41Today
00:32:41You'll learn what happens when you mess with the wrong guy
00:32:44Come on
00:32:45Let's see how tough you really are
00:32:49Julian look out
00:32:55What the hell
00:32:56Are you made of stone?
00:32:58You're hard as hell
00:32:59David
00:33:01Who sent you?
00:33:02Nobody sent us
00:33:03You know damn well who you've offended
00:33:05In Shrustal there are a lot of people you don't want to cross
00:33:08The name
00:33:09They didn't give us a name
00:33:11We just got paid
00:33:12Strayed
00:33:13To teach this woman a lesson
00:33:17There's someone hiding behind the pillar to my right
00:33:22I snatch at her shoulder
00:33:23But she's faster
00:33:24She pivots and traps my wrist in a vice-like grip
00:33:27I wrench my arm free
00:33:29Reversing the grip to seize her wrist
00:33:31My left hand shoots out
00:33:32Pressing flat against her chest
00:33:34A woman?
00:33:41You bastard!
00:33:42I'll kill you!
00:33:44It's you
00:33:45Seems like she's a pro
00:33:46Go to hell
00:33:56Who sent you?
00:33:58Are you in with those thugs?
00:34:00Let go of me!
00:34:02Let go!
00:34:04I'm a police officer
00:34:07You can check it
00:34:09Hey!
00:34:10Are you deaf?
00:34:11A cop?
00:34:13Then why were you hiding behind the pillar?
00:34:16Officer!
00:34:16Help!
00:34:17He's trying to kill me!
00:34:19Shut up!
00:34:21Stop right there
00:34:23You need to come back with me for questioning
00:34:32Did you see that clearly?
00:34:34A cop
00:34:35Did he just assault a cop?
00:34:37Or did a cop just assault him?
00:34:40A bodyguard who dares to assault a cop
00:34:43And a cluneless airnress
00:34:45This case is getting interesting
00:34:49What a day
00:34:50Let's go
00:34:53We'd been at the station for an hour
00:34:55When she finally showed up
00:35:05Officer, can I go now?
00:35:06Why is there an eight year gap in your file?
00:35:12Eight years?
00:35:13Are you a foreign operative?
00:35:15A night bringer?
00:35:16Did you come back to be Gianna Palmer's bodyguard?
00:35:19What's your mission?
00:35:21How much has she found?
00:35:28That's what you think
00:35:31Then how do you explain it?
00:35:34I'm a citizen of Ferrora
00:35:35I was serving in the military
00:35:37I can't say anything else
00:35:40More than anyone
00:35:41I wish those words were true
00:35:43In the end, there wasn't enough evidence
00:35:45So Gianna and I were released
00:35:47What exactly happened today?
00:35:56Wait, that air
00:35:57I beat the crap out of him that day?
00:36:02Julian
00:36:03What's wrong?
00:36:06It's nothing
00:36:07Let's go
00:36:12Julian
00:36:13Just how many secrets are you hiding?
00:36:16Are you alright?
00:36:18They didn't give you a hard time, did they?
00:36:22Thank goodness you're okay, Julian
00:36:24I know you're dedicated
00:36:25But this is just a job
00:36:26Don't go risking your life again
00:36:28Don't worry
00:36:40Julian
00:36:40Julian never made it to the dinner
00:36:41And I couldn't keep waiting forever
00:36:42So I came right over
00:36:43We ran into a few ponies
00:36:45And Julian took care of them
00:36:47Looks like this bodyguard of yours
00:36:49Really comes in handy
00:36:56Gianna, I need to talk to you
00:36:59Julian
00:37:00Could you give us a minute?
00:37:11Ruby, I can't come see you tonight
00:37:13Get some sleep
00:37:14Don't worry, Julian
00:37:15Mrs. Shaw came over to keep me company
00:37:18Once this is all over
00:37:19I'll be by her side
00:37:20And we'll never be apart again
00:37:23Gianna, let's get Julian drunk later
00:37:25See if we can find out what he used to do
00:37:28I don't think that's a good idea
00:37:29Do you really think someone like him
00:37:31Would just come clean with you?
00:37:33The only way to get the truth
00:37:34Is to get him drunk
00:37:37They think this little trick
00:37:38Is going to work on me
00:37:41When I was running
00:37:42Undercover missions on the border
00:37:46They were still whining about classes in school
00:37:55Here
00:37:56Thank you for saving my life
00:37:58I'm not a big drinker
00:38:00And I never drink on the job
00:38:01You're not in any danger here
00:38:03Tonight your only mission is to relax
00:38:05Eat
00:38:07And have a drink with us
00:38:11So, Julian
00:38:12What did you do before this?
00:38:16I was in the army
00:38:18For how long?
00:38:20Eight years
00:38:21So why'd you get out?
00:38:24Eight years in the service
00:38:26The comrades I lost
00:38:28My mother
00:38:29Who I never saw one last time
00:38:32And this wound that will never truly heal
00:38:35How am I supposed to talk about any of that?
00:38:38It's okay
00:38:39You don't have to answer
00:38:41Yeah
00:38:42You're back
00:38:43And that's all that matters
00:38:49I got injured during training
00:38:51I wonder if they're okay over there
00:38:53The truth is
00:38:59The ones who were hurt the most
00:39:01Are the ones
00:39:03Who can never come back
00:39:06Oh, let's not talk about this
00:39:08Come on
00:39:09Cheers
00:39:22Are you seeing someone?
00:39:30Have another drink
00:39:31And I'll tell you
00:39:32I know all about these rich girls
00:39:34They can't hold their liquor
00:39:36This is her limit
00:39:59I just want to see how gentle Julian really is
00:40:08Gianna watches her sugar intake
00:40:09And only eats sugar-free food
00:40:11Haley has a sweet tooth
00:40:14It's the duty of a bodyguard
00:40:16To remember the employer's preferences
00:40:20What exactly happened last night?
00:40:23We both got drunk and passed out last night
00:40:26You didn't do anything to us, did you?
00:40:29I'm a bodyguard
00:40:30My job is to protect you, nothing more
00:40:32Besides, Ms. Palmer
00:40:33You were so drunk last night
00:40:35That you were hugging a vase
00:40:36Yelling
00:40:37Don't dock my employees' pay
00:40:38And Ms. Chapman
00:40:39You talked to my dog for half an hour
00:40:41I didn't even get a chance to stop you
00:40:44You!
00:40:46Julian, I'm Grayson Anderson
00:40:48The Director of Human Resources
00:40:50Here at the company
00:40:51So here's the thing
00:40:53Upper management is going through restructuring lately
00:40:55I was hoping you could put in a good word for me with Ms. Palmer
00:40:59Mr. Anderson
00:41:00I'm just a bodyguard
00:41:01I'm only responsible for Ms. Palmer personal safety
00:41:04I have no say in company appointments
00:41:06If you do a great job, Ms. Palmer will take notice
00:41:09You don't have to come to me for this
00:41:21Where are you going, Ms. Palmer?
00:41:23I'm going for a hike in the mountains to clear my head
00:41:26Can you stop following me everywhere?
00:41:28You're like a shadow
00:41:29I'm sorry, Ms. Palmer
00:41:30But it's my job
00:41:32Your safety is my responsibility once you step outside this building
00:41:51Achoo!
00:41:52Ms. Palmer
00:41:53It's windy up here
00:41:54Put this on
00:41:55I'm not wearing your jacket
00:41:57Achoo!
00:41:58I have no idea why Gianna's mad again
00:42:00But I'm used to her saying one thing and mean another
00:42:04Don't put on an act like you care
00:42:06Get away from me
00:42:10Ouch!
00:42:11My foot!
00:42:12It hurts so much
00:42:13You've sprained it
00:42:15You can't walk like this
00:42:19Let go of me, Julian!
00:42:21I hate you!
00:42:22I'll carry you down the mountain
00:42:24Did I allow you to carry me?
00:42:26I can walk on my own
00:42:30Well, have it your way
00:42:31If you want to have a limp for the rest of your life
00:42:33I'll put you down right now
00:42:41You're bleeding
00:42:42Put me down now
00:42:43I can walk on my own
00:42:44It's just a scratch
00:42:46I'm fine
00:42:50The wind's picking up
00:42:51Put on clothes
00:42:52Don't catch a cold
00:43:09Tell me if it hurts
00:43:11I'll be gentle
00:43:12Did I whine?
00:43:13It doesn't hurt at all
00:43:22Why do you have so many scars?
00:43:24You've been shot
00:43:25Julian, what have you been through?
00:43:27I was a soldier
00:43:27These are from old missions
00:43:29It's nothing to look at
00:43:37It's not appropriate for me to live alone with him
00:43:41Doesn't Haley have a thing for him?
00:43:44I'll have her move in
00:43:46Then I'll have some company, too
00:43:55I'll keep those days in a hail of bullets
00:43:58A secret from her
00:43:59What about you?
00:44:01Have you eaten?
00:44:01I had some bread on the way back
00:44:04From now on, remember to buy enough food for two
00:44:07I don't want anyone thinking
00:44:08I won't even give my own bodyguard a proper meal
00:44:13Gianna!
00:44:14Gianna!
00:44:22What did I do to deserve this from them?
00:44:29It was my first kiss
00:44:30How could this happen?
00:44:35Julian, you did that on purpose, didn't you?
00:44:37Couldn't you step aside?
00:44:39Were you waiting to take advantage of her?
00:44:40Gianna, it's not Julian's fault
00:44:42I was running too fast and I slipped
00:44:45If he hadn't caught me, I would have been badly hurt
00:44:49He's bleeding?
00:44:50Was the impact really that bad?
00:44:52I'm so sorry
00:44:52I was being clumsy
00:44:54You should go take care of your wound
00:44:56Before it gets infected
00:45:17Julian, you're so pathetic
00:45:26You...
00:45:26Why are you still staring at that?
00:45:28Turn around
00:45:35I didn't see anything
00:45:46Julian, your nose is bleeding
00:45:52Miss Palmer
00:45:53Miss Chapnett
00:45:54I'll let you be
00:45:55I'll go out for a smoke
00:45:57I'll be right outside the door
00:45:58Call me if you need anything
00:46:04I've faced death on the battlefield
00:46:05And never been this flustered
00:46:09It's so embarrassing
00:46:10This is so humiliating
00:46:12It's over
00:46:12It's all over
00:46:14How could he have seen my underwear?
00:46:16Well, who would have thought a fearless woman like you could be so shy?
00:46:21Maybe Julian didn't even think twice about it
00:46:23Don't you start!
00:46:24This is all your fault!
00:46:26If you hadn't been so clumsy today, none of this would have happened
00:46:33When will this awkward life ever end?
00:46:37Get ready and take Haley to Osania Translations immediately
00:46:42She'll be there to help translate a top secret email
00:46:45The mission is completely confidential
00:46:48I want no mistakes
00:46:55Julian, do you have a girlfriend?
00:46:59No
00:47:05So, what's your type?
00:47:06Do you prefer someone sweet and gentle
00:47:08Or lively and outgoing?
00:47:10I haven't really thought about that
00:47:14Right now
00:47:15I just want to focus on my work
00:47:18Really?
00:47:19Don't your parents ever push you?
00:47:23I'm sure your friends must have told you to find someone
00:47:25How I wish
00:47:27My parents would urge me to settle down
00:47:29I wouldn't even hear their nagging in my wildest dreams
00:47:32They're long gone
00:47:45Julian, did I say something wrong?
00:47:47Did I bring up something I shouldn't have?
00:47:50No
00:47:51It's okay
00:47:54I just accidentally stepped on the gas too hard
00:48:11Haley
00:48:12It's really you
00:48:13It's been a while
00:48:14You're still as beautiful as you were in high school
00:48:17I'm Leo Powell
00:48:18I sat behind you in high school
00:48:21I used to borrow your notes
00:48:24Oh
00:48:25It's you, Leo
00:48:26It's been ages
00:48:28You've changed so much
00:48:30I almost didn't recognize you
00:48:37Haley
00:48:38Is this your boyfriend?
00:48:41He's got a good look
00:48:43You two look great together
00:48:45No, don't get me wrong
00:48:47This is Julian Mitchell, an assistant from our company
00:48:52He's with me for the translation
00:48:54My mistake
00:48:55Haley
00:48:57You've definitely come to the right place
00:48:59I'm the chief translator here
00:49:01I can translate any document
00:49:04Especially confidential ones
00:49:06That's my specialty
00:49:08This way, please
00:49:11Sir, this work is confidential
00:49:13Please wait outside
00:49:18Something feels off
00:49:19Leo is definitely up to no good
00:49:22Why does he keep staring at me?
00:49:25It gives me the creeps
00:49:26Could he be up to something?
00:49:28I can do the translation
00:49:30But I have one condition
00:49:32Haley
00:49:33I've had a crush on you since high school
00:49:36Now that you're asking me for a favor
00:49:38Shouldn't you give me something in return?
00:49:41I wonder what you taste like
00:49:43Leo
00:49:43How dare you say something so shameless?
00:49:46This is insane
00:49:47You were so high and mighty when you rejected me, weren't you?
00:49:50But now you're begging for my help
00:49:51Be a good girl
00:49:52And I'll translate it right away
00:49:54Otherwise you can forget about getting your job done
00:49:56And don't blame me when the work gets delayed
00:49:58Leo, let go of me
00:50:00Help! Help! Is anyone there? Help!
00:50:03Something's wrong in there
00:50:04Go on
00:50:05Keep screaming
00:50:06This is my office
00:50:07The doors and windows are closed
00:50:10You can scream your lungs out
00:50:11But no one will save you
00:50:12Now do as I said
00:50:14Don't make me hurt you
00:50:15Help!
00:50:20I'm sorry, sir
00:50:21This is a confidential project
00:50:23Mr. Powell is handling important documents
00:50:26And can't be disturbed
00:50:28Please wait here and don't cause a scene
00:50:30Get out of my way
00:50:32Try to stop me again
00:50:34And I won't be so nice
00:50:52Leo is a monster
00:50:53He tried to assault me
00:50:55He's so shameless
00:51:00It's okay
00:51:01I'm here now
00:51:01I won't let anyone hurt you ever again
00:51:09I'll make him pay for everything he's done to you
00:51:12Halt! Stay right there!
00:51:27Back off
00:51:31Who the hell do you think you are
00:51:33You lousy bodyguard
00:51:34How dare you mess with me
00:51:36Today I'm gonna
00:51:41What happened here?
00:51:43What's going on?
00:51:45It's her
00:51:46Madeline Harrison
00:51:48She's the officer in charge of this district
00:51:50I thought she was more capable than that
00:51:53What's she doing here?
00:51:54It's him!
00:51:55He's the one who started it
00:51:57He attacked me
00:51:58Leo Powell
00:51:58And even the security guards
00:52:00Arrest him!
00:52:02Tell me exactly what happened
00:52:03I need to know the whole story
00:52:06No omissions
00:52:07And no lies
00:52:10Julian didn't do that for no reason
00:52:11Leo put his hands on me
00:52:13And tried to assault me
00:52:15Julian was just trying to stop him
00:52:17And he accidentally hurt them
00:52:19He was protecting me
00:52:20Not deliberately causing trouble
00:52:24I know you've held a grudge against me since school
00:52:27But that's no reason to slander me
00:52:29How could you team up with Julian to frame me
00:52:32And have him attack me?
00:52:34You're lying
00:52:35How despicable
00:52:36Oh, so that's what this is about
00:52:38I guess she held a grudge after being rejected
00:52:40And now is trying to get revenge
00:52:42Yeah, you're right
00:52:43She must be alive
00:52:44How could she slander Leo like this?
00:52:49Leo, you'll regret this
00:52:51Julian, let's go
00:52:52Let's not waste our time on people like him
00:52:54Not so fast
00:52:56Officer, I want to press charges against them
00:52:59I will make them pay for this
00:53:01Alright then
00:53:02You are all coming with me to the station to make a full statement
00:53:05The police will take it from there
00:53:10Tell me
00:53:10What happened?
00:53:12I want the whole story from start to finish
00:53:14Don't leave anything out
00:53:15It's in everyone's best interest
00:53:19I need to stay calm
00:53:21The only way to make that bastard pay
00:53:23Is to tell them everything
00:53:26Hayley asked me to go with her to the translation company
00:53:30We ran into her high school classmate
00:53:33Leo
00:53:34He kept provoking me
00:53:36And then he tried to assault Hayley
00:53:39I only hurt them to protect her
00:53:41I see
00:53:42I think I get the picture
00:53:43Leo was targeting Hayley from the start
00:53:44The problem is
00:53:46You don't have any evidence
00:53:48We can't charge him with anything directly
00:53:50What?
00:53:51I thought I was a witness
00:53:54You and Hayley are a couple
00:53:55Your testimony isn't credible enough
00:53:58We're not seeing each other
00:53:59Well, Leo thinks you are
00:54:06Now he wants to press charges against you for assault?
00:54:14And who's to say I hurt him on purpose
00:54:17I can claim he attacked me first
00:54:20And it was self-defense
00:54:22Besides, his secretary's testimony is hardly credible
00:54:26Their relationship is hardly professional
00:54:32Alright, you can go
00:54:35Officer, how can you just let him go?
00:54:37He attacked me and framed me
00:54:39You should arrest him
00:54:41Not release him
00:54:44Since neither of you could provide any solid evidence
00:54:46I have to release him
00:54:51You'd better drop whatever you're plotting
00:54:53Or it'll backfire on you
00:55:05Julian, you got lucky this time
00:55:07If it had happened a month ago
00:55:09A scum like you would have been dead by my hand
00:55:11You're lucky too
00:55:14For running into me now
00:55:18Watch your back, loser
00:55:19Leo, you'd better behave yourself
00:55:28Is that a threat?
00:55:31So what if it is?
00:55:52What's wrong?
00:55:56I'm sorry
00:55:57I got you dragged into this
00:56:00I failed to protect you
00:56:01Leo is out for revenge
00:56:04It's better that he comes after me than you
00:56:08But I don't want you to get hurt because of me
00:56:20Julian! Watch out!
00:56:23She's the first woman to kiss me voluntarily
00:56:26Other than my mom and Ruby
00:56:34Julian!
00:56:36Is this how you protect Hayley?
00:56:38You're fired!
00:56:40Gianna, it's not his fault!
00:56:44That bastard Leo did that to me
00:56:47If he had gone into the office with you
00:56:50Leo would never have dared to assault you
00:56:53Gianna, you're going too far!
00:56:55I already told you it had nothing to do with him!
00:56:59If you don't agree with my decision
00:57:00Then leave
00:57:05Fine
00:57:06I'll leave
00:57:08Julian, come with me
00:57:14You don't have to put up with someone like her
00:57:19Miss Chapman, you should head back
00:57:21I'm still her bodyguard
00:57:24After everything she said to you
00:57:25You're still going to protect her?
00:57:27She can treat me as she wants
00:57:31But it's my job to keep her safe
00:57:37I'm sorry Hayley
00:57:38I can't go with you
00:57:40It's my duty
00:57:42No matter what lies ahead
00:57:44I have to see it through
00:57:54What happened?
00:58:07Let go of me
00:58:08Did I call you here?
00:58:09I already told you you're fired
00:58:11Why are you still here?
00:58:15Good
00:58:16It's just a minor sprain
00:58:20You'll be fine after a few days of rest
00:58:22Stay still
00:58:23Or you'll make it worse
00:58:24I've given him such a hard time
00:58:26And even claimed to fire him
00:58:28But he's still so concerned about me
00:58:30Have I been too mean to him?
00:58:32Julian, I don't want my dad to worry
00:58:35So you can stay here
00:58:36You can live in that room
00:58:38Alright
00:58:39But from now on
00:58:40You have to ask for my permission
00:58:42Before you do anything
00:58:43Understood
00:58:45Julian, you'll pay for this
00:58:47Mr. Powell, he's a really good fighter
00:58:51His skill is no match for a weapon
00:58:53You may be a good fighter
00:58:55But Hayley is an easy target
00:58:58That bastard
00:58:59Of course he'd target Hayley
00:59:03I should have known he would do that
00:59:07Hayley
00:59:07You wait for me
00:59:09I'll come for you
00:59:11Miss Palmer
00:59:12There's something urgent
00:59:13I have to go
00:59:21What happened?
00:59:23Why is he in such a rush?
00:59:25Where are the cabs?
00:59:26Why can't I get one?
00:59:28Hayley
00:59:29Hayley
00:59:30You have to hold on
00:59:31Please be okay
00:59:33I'm on my way
00:59:42Sir
00:59:44Hey, it's me
00:59:46Where are you going?
00:59:47I'll give you a ride
00:59:49Thanks
00:59:49Hurry up and drive
00:59:50It's an emergency
00:59:52Where are you going?
00:59:55The abandoned factory in Orobert
01:00:05You saved Autumn
01:00:07And I considered it as a favor
01:00:11Name your price
01:00:12She wants to repay my kindness?
01:00:18But after that
01:00:19Stay away from Autumn
01:00:27I didn't save her for a reward
01:00:30Her words are a complete insult
01:00:32Eva
01:00:33How could you say that?
01:00:35That's so insulting
01:00:37I don't have time to argue with them
01:00:40Hayley is waiting for me
01:00:42Alright Autumn
01:00:43He's just a security guard
01:00:45Don't forget who you are
01:00:48Stop
01:00:50I'm getting out here
01:00:53Please, don't be upset
01:00:55Eva doesn't mean it
01:00:57She just has a nasty way of talking
01:01:01I'll make her apologize to you
01:01:03Please, don't get out
01:01:05I'll take you where you need to go
01:01:06There's no time to waste
01:01:07I have to find a ride now
01:01:09I must save Hayley
01:01:10That bastard Leo
01:01:11How dare he threaten me with Hayley
01:01:13If she gets hurt in any way
01:01:14I'll tear him to pieces
01:01:15If Hayley gets hurt
01:01:16In the slightest
01:01:18I'll make him regret that he was born
01:01:27I must stay calm
01:01:28Leo definitely has a trap set up
01:01:32I have to be careful
01:01:33I can't do anything to tip him off
01:01:35And put Hayley at risk
01:01:56Leo, Julian's not here yet
01:01:58How about we have a little fun first?
01:02:01What's the rush?
01:02:01When he gets here
01:02:02We'll tie him up
01:02:03And force him to watch
01:02:04How he hurt the woman
01:02:04He's trying to protect
01:02:05It's much more satisfying
01:02:06To see the look on his face
01:02:08Completely powerless
01:02:09He'll finally learn
01:02:10What happens when he crosses me
01:02:13No need to wait
01:02:16I'm here
01:02:17Leo, he's a tough fighter
01:02:19David and I have history
01:02:21I beat him so bad
01:02:22He was in bed for two weeks
01:02:25So what if you are a good fighter?
01:02:28Peter, if you don't want her to get hurt
01:02:30If you don't want her to get hurt
01:02:30You'll do exactly as I say
01:02:33Don't try anything funny
01:02:34Go!
01:02:35Just get out of here!
01:02:36He's going to kill you!
01:02:37Go now and call the police!
01:02:40Miss Chapman, don't be afraid
01:02:41I'm here now
01:02:42And I'm not leaving without you
01:02:45I told you I'd keep you safe
01:02:48I already sent my location to Madeline
01:02:50She and her team are in position outside
01:02:53I came here to make these scum eggs
01:02:55Confess to everything on record
01:02:56They're going to rot in jail
01:02:58For the rest of their lives
01:03:00Why aren't you leaving?
01:03:04Weren't you so arrogant?
01:03:05Where's all that attitude now?
01:03:07David, give our big hero a proper welcome
01:03:10Beat the shit out of him for me
01:03:18Is that all you've got?
01:03:21Did you forget to eat breakfast?
01:03:23No! Stop hitting him!
01:03:25Leo, I'm begging you
01:03:27Don't hurt him
01:03:28Go for me if that's what you want
01:03:34Let's see if you can act so tough now
01:03:46Damn it
01:03:47Still tough, huh?
01:03:48I'll break your arms and legs today
01:03:50I'll make you a cripple for life
01:03:52So you can never be a hero again
01:03:58Stop!
01:03:59Leo, if you let Julian go
01:04:02I'll do anything!
01:04:05Really?
01:04:06Fine
01:04:07David, untie her
01:04:09Let her take her own clothes off
01:04:11Guys, get your phones out
01:04:15Film it so we can watch this again
01:04:40Julian, just let go
01:04:42We're both going to fall
01:04:44Don't talk
01:04:45Don't talk
01:04:46Grab me with your other hand
01:04:46I'm here to save you
01:04:48I will never let go of your hand
01:04:57Julian!
01:04:59Julian, let go!
01:05:14They're both dead
01:05:25Did I get here just in time?
01:05:32I thought we were going to die
01:05:36I thought I'd never see you again
01:05:40Maybe I should give you two some privacy?
01:05:42The footage is perfectly clear
01:05:46What happened?
01:05:47He was gathering evidence for you
01:05:49The thugs who ran off have already been caught by my colleagues
01:05:52We got the whole thing on recording
01:05:58I stand frozen
01:05:59Madeline shakes her head repeatedly
01:06:02Idiot
01:06:07While helping Madeline process the scene
01:06:10Julian senses someone watching from the shadows
01:06:14This time, the presence feels extraordinary
01:06:23Julian
01:06:23Julian
01:06:26Thank you for saving me again
01:06:28I just did my job, Miss Chapman
01:06:35Can you stop calling me Miss Chapman?
01:06:39Just call me by my name
01:06:45Hi
01:06:46Hayley
01:06:47A sweet warmth spreads through her chest
01:06:50Come on
01:06:51Let's go to the hospital
01:06:52Your wounds need to be taken care of
01:06:54No, it's fine
01:06:55Miss Palmer hasn't eaten yet
01:06:57What are you, a bodyguard or a nanny?
01:07:00Miss Palmer hurt her ankle
01:07:01So it's hard for her to get around
01:07:04By the way, she said she wanted to talk to you about that email
01:07:07She really said that?
01:07:09Yeah
01:07:14Julian opens the passenger door for her
01:07:19Please
01:07:22Hayley
01:07:23Don't mention the kidnapping to Miss Palmer
01:07:25She'll feel guilty and blame herself
01:07:27It's in the past
01:07:28So there's no need for her to know
01:07:33You're awfully considerate of your employer, aren't you?
01:07:37I try to think of everything
01:07:42It's my job
01:07:49Julian drives her toward the house
01:08:09Unaware of everything we've been through
01:08:11Gianna is furious when I finally walk through the door
01:08:14You're finally back!
01:08:16Are you trying to starve me?
01:08:22Haley, why are you with Juliet?
01:08:24When she sees Haley, she's instantly delighted
01:08:27I was kidnapped
01:08:28Julian just rescued me
01:08:32He told me to keep it a secret from you
01:08:34But I think you need to know
01:08:40He does so much more than a regular bodyguard
01:08:44Gianna, I'm so jealous of you
01:08:47Haley
01:08:49It's a little awkward with just me and him living here
01:08:53Could you move in and stay with me?
01:09:00Of course
01:09:01Free food and a place to stay I'd love to
01:09:10We're screwed, Gianna
01:09:13It's full of technical terms
01:09:15The online translation is just a jumbled mess
01:09:18It's completely useless
01:09:19What if there's some kind of trap in it?
01:09:21If we reply to it without thinking, we'll get ourselves in big trouble
01:09:25I've already called the translator several times
01:09:28But he's out of town and can't get back
01:09:31Those must be his excuses
01:09:32They're just trying to stall us
01:09:34Why don't you let me take a look?
01:09:36Julian, you're not kidding, are you?
01:09:37This is business and legal French
01:09:39It's not as simple as just saying hello
01:09:41I know a bit
01:09:42I happen to have dealt with this kind of content before
01:09:50They want to cooperate but they're trying to get the upper hand
01:09:52If you reply before the end of the day today, you'll be at a disadvantage
01:09:56So you're saying we should just leave them hanging and not rush to reply?
01:09:59Exactly
01:10:00Let them stew for a day or two so they can't figure out what you're planning
01:10:03They're in more of a hurry than you are
01:10:05Wait for them to reach out first
01:10:07And the ball will be back in your court
01:10:09Then you can negotiate with them for every condition
01:10:14Then we'll let them stew for a day or two
01:10:18Gianna, where on earth did your dad find him?
01:10:21He can fight
01:10:23He can cook
01:10:24He speaks French
01:10:26And he has such a sharp business mind
01:10:29This guy isn't a bodyguard
01:10:31He's basically a Superman
01:10:35Haley
01:10:36So should I get you a room on the first floor tonight?
01:10:43What are you talking about?
01:10:46The next morning, the entertainment news feeds are flooded with the same explosive headline
01:10:51Pop diva Autumn Miller dumped by boyfriend on the street
01:10:55Julian, open the door!
01:10:57Please!
01:11:03No!
01:11:04It's freezing!
01:11:06It's freezing!
01:11:16I can't
01:11:17Let's go
01:11:23Phone notification
01:11:24A long message from Serenity
01:11:32She hung up
01:11:34Of course she did
01:11:37Everyone just hangs up on me
01:11:46Who was that?
01:11:48Just a friend
01:11:49We had a little misunderstanding
01:11:51I don't want to talk about Ruby
01:11:53Not to anyone
01:12:00I need Julian to sign this before the meeting
01:12:03He's in early today
01:12:05His door is open
01:12:08That's rare
01:12:09He usually keeps it shut tight
01:12:14On the floor are piles of colorful envelopes
01:12:16I open one
01:12:18Inside are a woman's photo and contact details
01:12:24They must have got it wrong
01:12:26She bends down and opens a few more
01:12:29All are date invitations
01:12:30One even reads
01:12:32I want to have your baby
01:12:34Just pick a pretty one and ask her out
01:12:38But I'm not interested
01:12:48You should be more focused on your work
01:12:55I stand there stunned
01:12:56Completely unaware of her little scheme
01:13:00I walk out of the office
01:13:02The elevator doors open
01:13:04And Adeline comes out holding a box
01:13:07A package for Miss Palmer
01:13:09As I pass by her
01:13:11I faintly hear a ticking sound
01:13:15My expression changed
01:13:19That's the sound of a timing device
01:13:21I immediately rush to Gianna's office
01:13:27Outside Gianna's office
01:13:28The door is ajar
01:13:31Gianna is happily unwrapping the package
01:13:34I dash in and snatch the box from her
01:13:46I go to the restroom to wash my face
01:13:48And calm down
01:13:59There's definitely more to this blood bomb incident
01:14:01Than meets the eye
01:14:08Did they go after her again?
01:14:12Forget it
01:14:14I'll have a talk with her in a few days
01:14:17Julian, you have to be okay
01:14:21Julian, are you alright?
01:14:23Where did you get hurt?
01:14:26I'm fine
01:14:28I'm not really hurt
01:14:30Let's go find Miss Palmer and Madeline
01:14:32Okay
01:14:33Last time they tried to kill her
01:14:35This time, they sent a blood splattering bomb
01:14:37I wonder what's next
01:14:39Can the police send someone to protect Gianna?
01:14:45Not yet
01:14:47Julian, you're here
01:14:57Miss Palmer, I found this in your office
01:15:02Who would do something like this to Gianna?
01:15:05Who the hell is trying to hurt Gianna?
01:15:08Julian already called the police
01:15:11Gianna, do you have a suspect in mind?
01:15:14No
01:15:15I've always done business by the book
01:15:17Okay, then do you have the shipping information?
01:15:20Like, the shipping label?
01:15:27No need to find that
01:15:29I remember the information on it
01:15:33But I don't think you ever saw the packaging, did you?
01:15:38I came across it in the elevator earlier
01:15:40I happened to glance at it
01:15:43Go ahead
01:15:44I'll write it down
01:15:45I can't believe he remembers
01:15:48Julian
01:15:52This bomb must be from the same person who was trying to harm Gianna
01:15:56What should I do?
01:16:00Madeline scribbles the address in her notebook
01:16:03Julian really cares about Gianna
01:16:06He remembers every little detail
01:16:09I suggest we focus the investigation on someone working for PICVIA group
01:16:16Why?
01:16:18Miss Palmer's packages are delivered at the same time every day
01:16:21Plus, this is the tallest building in the area
01:16:24So you can't see into the office from any of the nearby buildings
01:16:29That means the person behind this must be someone familiar with Miss Palmer's schedule
01:16:32Okay, I'll arrange for someone to investigate right now
01:16:38Gianna stands up and walks out of the office
01:16:45Haley bandaged my hand wound and ties it into a bow
01:16:49Is it her way of showing care?
01:16:53You need to be more careful from now on
01:16:55Don't get hurt again
01:16:59Okay
01:17:01Gianna returns just in time to see this
01:17:05Julian
01:17:07Julian
01:17:08You can take the day off tomorrow
01:17:10Go pay your respects to your parents
01:17:14My parents
01:17:16Thank you, Miss Palmer
01:17:20Wait
01:17:21This is for the road
01:17:24Come back early tomorrow
01:17:26Does Haley care for me?
01:17:28What about Miss Palmer?
01:17:30Haley
01:17:30You're too good to him
01:17:34He saved my life
01:17:39Is it just because he saved your life?
01:17:43Shut up!
01:17:48Any news on Leo?
01:17:50That guy is an absolute monster
01:17:52David confessed everything
01:17:54Leo drugged several office workers
01:17:57Specifically targeting them
01:18:00He's not getting out anytime soon
01:18:02People like him should be shot
01:18:08I know
01:18:10I wonder how Ruby is doing
01:18:18You...
01:18:20I have to go pay my respects to my parents
01:18:23His parents?
01:18:24Yeah
01:18:26Be careful on the way
01:18:31I sit alone before my parents' photo
01:18:33Lost in thought
01:18:34Later, after finishing the laundry
01:18:36I rush to the hospital
01:18:41I stand outside the hospital room
01:18:43And my sister is leaning against the headboard
01:18:45Reading
01:18:47Serenity is by her side
01:18:55Ruby
01:18:57Julian
01:18:58You're back from your business trip
01:19:00Yeah
01:19:01Ruby, I need to tell you something
01:19:02I'm thinking of hiring a nursing aide for you
01:19:05They can stay with you during the day
01:19:07And I'll take over at night
01:19:09No, Julian
01:19:10You don't have to
01:19:11I can manage on my own
01:19:12It costs thousands of dollars a month
01:19:15Don't worry about the money
01:19:17I've been too busy to take care of you lately
01:19:20Besides
01:19:21Miss Shaw still has work to do
01:19:24We can't keep bothering her
01:19:28Julian
01:19:28Come out with me
01:19:37What do you mean by that?
01:19:39Do you think I can't take good care of Ruby?
01:19:41How can you afford to hire a nursing aide?
01:19:44You are busy enough with your work
01:19:47It's hard for Ruby to get out of bed
01:19:49After her surgery
01:19:51And I can't be with her all the time
01:19:55That's why I'm looking for a nursing aide
01:19:58No
01:19:59I'm willing to do it for you
01:20:01Don't worry about me
01:20:13Julian
01:20:14I found out who sent that bomb
01:20:16Have a guess
01:20:18Who?
01:20:19It's an employee of the Pickvia group
01:20:21And it's connected to Gianna's boyfriend, Gabriel
01:20:26He came back to the country two weeks ago
01:20:28But didn't tell Gianna
01:20:29We tracked him going straight in the city
01:20:32As soon as he landed
01:20:32He checked into a hotel near the Pickvia group
01:20:36Thank you for telling me this
01:20:37I just did my job
01:20:39But I hope you can handle this
01:20:44Who is Ruby Mitchell's family?
01:20:46Who are the family members of Ruby Mitchell?
01:20:48Are they here?
01:20:49The patient is having a rejection reaction
01:20:51And needs a blood transfusion
01:20:54Take mine
01:20:55I'm her brother
01:20:56I follow the nurse
01:20:57My mind numb and blank
01:20:59My phone vibrates again
01:21:01I look down
01:21:03An anonymous text
01:21:05Come to Eckrah Hill Cemetery
01:21:07I'll wait for you behind your mother's tombstone
01:21:10Who the hell are you?
01:21:16I don't care who you are
01:21:17You threaten me with my family
01:21:19And I'll make you pay
01:21:20I don't care who you are
01:21:20I don't care who you are
01:21:20I don't care who you are
01:21:21I don't care who you are
01:21:21I don't care who you are
01:21:21I don't care who you are
01:21:22I don't care who you are
01:21:22I don't care who you are
01:21:22I don't care who you are
01:21:23I don't care who you are
01:21:23I don't care who you are
01:21:24I don't care who you are
01:21:25I don't care who you are
01:21:25I don't care who you are
01:21:25I don't care who you are
