From Copilot to Captain Billionaire Romance
Transcript
00:03I spent five years as Noah's co-pilot, and five more as his secret lover that couldn't be acknowledged.
00:11On our anniversary, his ex sent me a text.
00:21Guess which position we just unlocked.
00:24The photo showed the exact move Noah had me try in bed last week.
00:30At that moment, I understood every trick he knew, she'd taught him.
00:36I took a picture of the captain transfer papers I'd hidden for three months, and replied,
00:42Congrats! But while you are busy unlocking new positions, I am charting a flight path he'll never catch.
00:52Then I signed my name bound for Seattle. Captain of GFO-28.
00:57Five years of playing second fiddle ends here.
01:01From now on, I fly east.
01:02He flies west.
01:04Thirty thousand feet up, our paths will never cross.
01:09I am my own captain now.
01:16Skylar.
01:21An elite pilot, like you should have been leading your own crew three years ago.
01:28Think it over these next few days.
01:30Do you want to keep being Noah's supporting act?
01:34Or seize the chance to become our first female captain?
01:40I'll give it serious thought.
01:45Five years.
01:46A full five years.
01:51Everyone at the company thought Noah and I were just the golden duo in the cockpit.
01:56Little did they know, we were just as compatible in bed.
02:04After graduating from flight school and joining the company, meeting Noah, we'd set one partnership record after another.
02:13Back then, Noah pursued me relentlessly.
02:18For my birthday, he spent three months designing a flight route that traced my name on the GPS map.
02:28Under Noah's constant devotion, I fell.
02:36To protect his career, the company prohibited relationships between captains and co-pilots.
02:47I agreed to keep things secret.
02:53By day, we piloted seven hundred and eighty-sevenths together.
02:59Flying from New York to L.A., crossing the entire American continent.
03:04By night, we shared a bed.
03:07His kisses ranging from passionate to tender.
03:12Introducing me to eighty-one different positions.
03:17Two people so perfectly matched, mentally and physically yet.
03:22Looking back now, all I taste is bitterness.
03:32Still up?
03:34Too many night flights.
03:37My sleep schedule's a mess.
03:40Got you a gift, on this last flight.
03:45Inside the box, a Cartier diamond bracelet lay on satin.
03:49Blindingly bright.
03:51Three months ago, I'd mentioned it casually on a plane.
03:54He remembered.
03:58I should have been moved, if I hadn't seen the same bracelet on Bella's Instagram two days ago.
04:06Captain Hunt has excellent taste.
04:09This Cartier bracelet symbolizes eternity.
04:13Did you and Noah get back together?
04:15This bracelet is so perfect on you!
04:18Don't read too much into it.
04:22Five years together, and only then did I learn that Bella was Noah's ex-girlfriend.
04:37No wonder, at every team gathering, he always drove Bella home.
04:42While I, to hide our relationship, had to take cabs alone.
04:49What is wrong?
04:52Don't like it.
04:53I waited in line six hours to get it.
04:56Didn't you say you really wanted it on the plane?
05:00Don't really want it anymore.
05:05Just like, I don't really want this man I've loved for five years anymore.
05:10If it doesn't suit you, I'll get you something else next time.
05:15Next time, he'll buy me something else.
05:17Will Bella also get one first?
05:20Or will he buy two identical items?
05:24Pulling myself back to the present, my gaze fell in the application form the jewelry box was crushing.
05:31And I smiled bitterly.
05:34I deliberately placed this document in the most visible spot.
05:38Yet Noah had completely ignored it.
05:41This unequal relationship, maybe it had been my one-woman show from the start.
05:50Robert, I accept the transfer.
05:53I am applying for the GF 028 route.
05:57GF 028 and Noah 787 go completely opposite directions.
06:04One east, one west.
06:08Choose this route, and your flight paths will never intersect.
06:13You sure?
06:16I am sure.
06:28Writing something?
06:32Flight dispatch for next time.
06:39If you are too tired, consider stopping flights.
06:42My salary's enough for us to live well anyway.
06:44Five years, and this man had never truly understood me.
06:49He knew I'd given up three promotion opportunities for him.
06:53He knew flying was my everything.
06:55Yet, he still said things like that.
06:59We'll see.
07:01It is fine.
07:02Just 14 more days, and I can leave Global United Airlines.
07:07Leave this man, who has never taken my dreams seriously.
07:12Back in the bedroom, I'd barely laid down when Noah's arm wrapped around me from behind.
07:18His palms sliding knowingly into my silk nightgown.
07:21My images flashed through my mind.
07:24Bella's Instagram photo showing her red painted nails resting on Noah's wrist.
07:30Don't touch me!
07:32Don't touch me!
07:35Don't touch me!
07:36What is wrong?
07:37Not feeling well.
07:45Does this help?
07:48In the darkness, his tenderness felt so real, but so did the betrayal.
07:53If he really cared about me, why would he still be entangled with his ex-girlfriend?
07:58In the early morning, his phone on the nightstand lit up.
08:03I instinctively glanced over.
08:05It was a message from Bella.
08:06Remember number three on your 18-year-old wish list?
08:10Rowboat in Central Park.
08:12I am waiting for you at the dock.
08:14My heart sank to the bottom.
08:16Last Saturday, Noah had just promised to take me to Central Park.
08:20I'd even booked a double rowboat.
08:22Turns out, not only did the ex get priority on gifts,
08:25even our date plans were hers to experience first.
08:31Something urgent with the crew.
08:32I need to go.
08:34I want to go to Central Park.
08:36Now.
08:37Next week.
08:39I am too busy this week.
08:41Next week, I'll take you.
08:45So I am just supposed to keep waiting!
08:47One text from his ex.
08:49And she is more important than all our plans.
08:52I turned back to the living room,
08:54looking at the entire wall of photos,
08:56feeling that familiar tightness in my chest again.
09:02A hundred photos,
09:03symbolizing our love lasting a hundred years!
09:07A hundred years.
09:10The promise had a much shorter shelf life than I'd imagined.
09:17Some people never forget your 18-year-old dreams.
09:20Number Central Park.
09:21Number Sunrise.
09:22Promise it kept.
09:24Noah!
09:25Slower!
09:27It hurts!
09:29So after the rowboat,
09:31there was an after party.
09:33Skylar.
09:34Where are all the photos?
09:37Fell down.
09:38Put them away.
09:40When I have time,
09:41we'll hang them together.
09:44Sadly.
09:46Photos can be re-hung.
09:48But feelings can't.
09:58The next morning,
10:01I placed the signed promotion form on Robert's assistant's desk.
10:05Just as I was about to leave,
10:06the hallway intercom crackled.
10:09All crew members,
10:10please report immediately to conference hall.
10:13One.
10:13The new Pursa arrives today.
10:16The Boeing 787 was getting a new Purser.
10:21So sudden.
10:26We're pleased to introduce our Boeing 787's new Purser,
10:32Bella Jones.
10:35Fate works in mysterious ways.
10:38Five years ago,
10:40when Noah first became captain,
10:41I was his Purser.
10:44After all this time,
10:46we get to fly together again.
10:48It must be destiny.
10:51They're totally meant for each other.
10:54Five years ago,
10:55they were just like this.
10:56Their chemistry stung my eyes.
10:59I quietly turned
11:00and pushed through the heavy conference hall doors.
11:05That evening's welcome dinner
11:07was at an upscale restaurant
11:08in Midtown Manhattan.
11:11I hadn't wanted to go.
11:13But several crew members dragged me along.
11:17Come on, Skylar.
11:19Everyone knows you've always liked Noah.
11:21But for the company's sake,
11:23at least make an appearance.
11:28I sat in a corner,
11:29watching Bella circulate like a hostess.
11:32She'd lean in to whisper to Noah,
11:34fingers lightly touching his shoulder.
11:37The scene was especially painful to watch.
11:40In public before,
11:42Noah never let me get that close.
11:44Now I understood those rules
11:46only applied to people he didn't love.
11:49I heard they were madly in love back then.
11:51When Bella was going to work in Dubai,
11:54Noah even wrote a resignation letter
11:56if the flight director hadn't stopped him.
11:59And, you know, the most romantic part.
12:03When Noah wanted to propose,
12:05he specially requested a new route
12:08and confessed over the radio
12:11while crossing the Arctic Circle.
12:13Those flying memories, I thought,
12:15were uniquely ours.
12:17Turns out they were all reruns
12:19of someone else's story.
12:20The whole company knew about their romance.
12:23But no one knew about Noah
12:25and me these past five years.
12:28You must be Skylar.
12:30I am Bella.
12:32Consider me your senior.
12:35This double-edged comment was laughable.
12:38This woman who'd been provoking me with messages
12:40was now playing the first meeting card.
12:52Pleasure.
12:54Bella's smile froze for a moment,
12:56quickly recovering as she turned toward Noah.
12:59He was listening to her.
13:01His lips curved in that gentle arc
13:03I hadn't seen in weeks.
13:05Not once did he look in my direction.
13:08I couldn't take anymore
13:10and found an excuse to leave.
13:13Noah, your co-pilot doesn't seem to like me much.
13:17She left without even eating.
13:19Don't mind her.
13:20She's been pining after Noah for five years,
13:23playing second fiddle the whole time.
13:26Now that you are back,
13:27naturally she is uncomfortable.
13:29Don't say things like that.
13:32We'll all be colleagues going forward.
13:35So in everyone's eyes,
13:36I was just a pathetic woman
13:38who couldn't get what she wanted.
13:41Fine.
13:42In eleven more days,
13:43this pathetic woman would vanish
13:45from their sight forever.
13:47After all,
13:48no one ever knew
13:49I was Noah's actual girlfriend.
13:54Skylar,
13:55you shouldn't have left like that.
13:57Bella is a new colleague after all.
14:00You made things very awkward for her.
14:03You care so much about her embarrassment.
14:06Is it because she is a new colleague?
14:09Or because she is your ex-girlfriend?
14:21Skylar,
14:22you have to trust me.
14:23That is all ancient history.
14:27These five years,
14:28you've been the only one by my side.
14:31His eyes held a panic I'd never seen before,
14:34making me momentarily dazed.
14:36Maybe he does care about me.
14:39But just then,
14:41Bella's voice came from behind.
14:44Noah!
14:46The arm around me suddenly released,
14:48and he jerked back like he'd been shocked.
14:51That movement was so fast like pure instinct,
14:54drawing an invisible boundary between us.
14:56In that moment,
14:57I finally understood the current girlfriend of five years
15:00couldn't compete with a returning ex.
15:03Go on.
15:04Don't keep her waiting.
15:05I thought I'd been mentally prepared.
15:08But when betrayal was laid out so nakedly,
15:11the heart still hurts.
15:15I curled up on the living room sofa,
15:18phone screen glowing on my face.
15:20My finger unconsciously clicked on Bella's Instagram.
15:23Her latest post was from 10 minutes ago.
15:26Caption,
15:27Maximum Boyfriend Power,
15:28who says captains only fly planes,
15:30number best support.
15:32Look that photo.
15:33I suddenly remembered last summer
15:35at the Noisy Coney Island Amusement Park.
15:39Noah!
15:40I want to try it too!
15:46Don't do that, Skylar.
15:48It is not appropriate.
15:50Turns out it wasn't inappropriate.
15:53Just the wrong person.
15:55Don't cry, Skylar.
15:59Crying over unworthy people
16:01was letting myself down.
16:06Packing this late?
16:07Long flight next week.
16:11Getting things organized in advance.
16:14He's showing no suspicion.
16:17He even came over,
16:19bent down to check my suitcase lock,
16:20then Click personally locked it for me.
16:28All right, get some sleep.
16:30I looked at that suitcase he'd personally locked.
16:33My throat, suddenly tight.
16:36He'd never know this case didn't hold flight equipment.
16:39But my determination to leave.
16:52Today was my last flight as Noah's co-pilot,
16:55and Bella's maiden voyage as the 787's purser.
17:02How pathetic together with Noah five years.
17:06And he can't even publicly acknowledge you.
17:11Seems in his heart,
17:12you'll always be someone who can't see daylight.
17:17And know what?
17:19Noah told me that morning in Central Park.
17:24He said he missed our flying days together most.
17:29Thanks for your hard work these five years.
17:34Playing his assistant by day,
17:36his bed partner by night.
17:38But you must have noticed.
17:41His favorite positions were all ones.
17:44I taught him.
17:46If you want to say these things,
17:48you should tell Noah.
17:50Noah.
17:51Noah.
17:53Or can you only show off,
17:55in front of me?
17:58Skylar.
17:59Clinging to a man who doesn't love you.
18:02Don't you find it humiliating?
18:06Noah only has me in his heart.
18:09He is just killing time with you.
18:11The gifts he gave you
18:13were just styles I didn't want.
18:16Even the man himself,
18:18I used him first.
18:21You know what?
18:23Only he and I
18:25are the most compatible.
18:26Body and soul.
18:30Look at Bella,
18:31I suddenly finding this scene ridiculous.
18:34She expected to see me break down.
18:38But ever since I'd discovered
18:39those flirty texts on Noah's phone,
18:42my heart had withered like a dying flower.
18:45No amount of provocation could make it bloom again.
18:49Since you are so perfect together,
18:53I wish you both a happy reunion.
19:02From today on,
19:04my life would be like this sunshine,
19:06bright and warm.
19:12Flaps 5 degrees.
19:18Flaps 5 check.
19:20Takeoff thrust set.
19:23Thrust set check.
19:25We coordinated as seamlessly
19:27as the past 5 years.
19:29But every command today
19:31carried farewell.
19:33This was the last time
19:34I'd sit on his right.
19:36From now on,
19:38I'd be the one holding
19:39the control column.
19:41Bringing every aircraft
19:43safely through takeoff
19:44and landing.
19:54At 35,000 feet,
19:56Noah engaged autopilot.
19:59We walked out of the cockpit
20:00one after another
20:01to patrol the cabin.
20:03Noah!
20:05Just then,
20:06the plane suddenly hit
20:07severe turbulence.
20:09An overhead bin door popped open
20:11and a heavy suitcase
20:13fell straight down.
20:15Time stretched infinitely
20:16in that moment.
20:17I saw Noah instinctively
20:19pull Bella into his arms
20:21while that case struck
20:23solidly on my right shoulder.
20:26Captain Skyler!
20:31First, go calm the passengers.
20:35Tell them this is just
20:37normal turbulence.
20:39Okay!
20:43Who's responsibility
20:45was this?
20:50Sorry.
20:52I just took something out
20:53and might not have
20:54closed it properly.
20:56Can't handle even
20:57this basic operation!
20:59What if it had hit
21:01a passenger?
21:02Skyler,
21:04it was an accident.
21:05Don't be so harsh.
21:09At 35,000 feet,
21:12there is no such thing
21:14as accident
21:14that what you said.
21:17I am disappointed,
21:19Relly!
21:25About what just happened,
21:27I am very sorry.
21:31But Bella was closer to me!
21:32I instinctively!
21:35It is fine.
21:36This is my last time
21:37flying the 787
21:39with you anyway.
21:40You are angry
21:41about what just happened?
21:45No.
21:47Bella's been away
21:48from this position
21:49five years.
21:50She needs time
21:51to readjust.
21:52You shouldn't be
21:53too hard on her.
21:55Those words
21:56were like
21:57the final boulder
21:57crushing the last hope
21:59in my heart.
22:00The one who made
22:01the mistake
22:02got tender protection
22:03while the injured one
22:04was accused
22:05of being too harsh.
22:06The aching right shoulder
22:08felt like
22:08a prominent period,
22:11marking the end point
22:12of these five years.
22:14Sure enough,
22:15some routes
22:16are destined
22:18to be flown alone.
22:29After seven hours
22:30of flight,
22:31the plane landed
22:33smoothly at Anchorage Airport.
22:36After resting overnight
22:37at the airport hotel,
22:39Noah took me
22:40to see the northern lights
22:41as promised,
22:43except seeing
22:44the ever-present Bella
22:45plus other crew members.
22:49extinguished
22:50any anticipation
22:50in my heart.
22:53After Noah's
22:54relentless pestering,
22:55I finally agreed.
22:58When we reached
22:59the observation cabin,
23:01the aurora
23:02happened to unfold
23:03its magnificent display
23:05across the night sky.
23:07Noah, remember?
23:11The first time
23:12we saw the aurora,
23:13we had that big fight.
23:15You swore
23:16you'd bring me back.
23:20Thank you for
23:21always remembering
23:22that promise.
23:26I never forget
23:27promises I make
23:28to you.
23:31In that moment,
23:32it felt like
23:33an icy blade
23:34pierced my heart.
23:36So the person
23:37Noah always wanted
23:39to share the aurora
23:41with Wes Bella
23:42all along.
23:43and I was just
23:44a bystander
23:45he'd brought along.
23:49The final flights
23:50are complete.
23:51Awaiting instructions,
23:52sir.
23:54From today,
23:56you are no longer
23:57the 787's
23:58co-pilot,
23:59but captain
24:00of the GFO
24:0128 route.
24:03Congratulations,
24:05Skylar.
24:06You're not only
24:07Aurora Airlines'
24:08youngest female captain,
24:10but also
24:11the pioneer
24:12of this new route.
24:18Skylar!
24:19Why isn't your name
24:20on tomorrow's
24:20flight schedule?
24:25been too tired
24:26lately.
24:28Requested a few
24:28days off.
24:30That is good.
24:32We promise to fly
24:34together until
24:34retirement.
24:36Skylar,
24:37don't lie to me.
24:44When I return,
24:45it'll be New Year's.
24:47Let's go to Tokyo
24:49for the countdown.
24:53Don't want to.
24:55Then Reykjavik.
24:57Just the two of us.
24:59No.
25:01These five years
25:03to hide our relationship.
25:06He always took me
25:08to distant cities
25:09to celebrate.
25:12But this time,
25:13I only wanted to
25:14quietly wait for the
25:15day I'd leave
25:16for Seattle.
25:17Come on,
25:18spill it.
25:19Any hidden dream
25:20destination?
25:21New Year's Eve.
25:23Come with me
25:24to Rockefeller Center.
25:26Why New York?
25:28We could go
25:29somewhere more special.
25:30Just some photos.
25:32You just play
25:33photographer.
25:35As you wish.
25:37After the company party,
25:38I'll definitely
25:40announce our relationship
25:41to everyone.
25:43Just give me
25:43a little more time.
25:46Go shower.
25:47It is late.
25:52Okay.
25:54Five years,
25:55he always made me wait.
25:58But this time,
25:59I wouldn't wait anymore.
26:11The 31st of December.
26:14My last day countdown
26:15to leaving.
26:17I stood under
26:19the appointed starlights,
26:22waiting from afternoon
26:24until dusk
26:24from twilight
26:25deepening into night.
26:27but Noah never
26:28appeared.
26:32You.
26:34Skylar!
26:35Bella's having
26:36acute gastroenteritis!
26:38I am at the hospital
26:39with her!
26:45I'll come find you later.
26:58welcoming the new year
27:00in my rightful place
27:01number captain's
27:02exclusive number
27:03position 82.
27:05Noah!
27:06They say liars must
27:08swallow a thousand needles!
27:10How many times
27:11have you lied to me?
27:15So what if Noah
27:16wasn't here
27:16to take my picture?
27:18From now on,
27:20I'd be my own
27:21photographer.
27:23At 10 p.m.,
27:25Noah finally called.
27:27Skylar,
27:28I'll be later.
27:30Find a cafe to sit
27:31and wait for me.
27:33Don't get cold.
27:36How much longer
27:37must I wait?
27:41I'll try to make it
27:42before midnight.
27:44Definitely spend
27:44new years with you.
27:46Take your photos.
27:47I'll wait
27:48until midnight.
27:54I plan to say
27:55goodbye to him
27:56at midnight.
27:58Our last meeting.
27:59Hope he won't
28:00stand me up.
28:0411 o'clock,
28:0511.30,
28:0611.59.
28:105, 4, 3, 2,
28:14Happy New Year!
28:18Noah never appeared.
28:21Welcoming New Year's
28:22with position 83.
28:24Times Square sky
28:24full of neon
28:25lighting up our
28:2620s and 30s.
28:33Noah, I am leaving.
28:35Wishing you and Bella
28:36continued success,
28:38unlocking all 108 positions.
28:55Welcome, Captain Skylar!
28:57Happy New Year!
29:00Happy New Year!
29:02Looking forward
29:03to flying with you all!
29:04From now on,
29:06I was this plane's captain.
29:09Kennedy Tower!
29:11Aurora Airlines
29:12GFO-28 ready!
29:14Requesting
29:14maiden flight clearance.
29:16Tower copy.
29:18GF-28
29:18cleared for takeoff.
29:20Safe skies,
29:21Captain Evans.
29:22Goodbye,
29:24Kennedy Tower!
29:29From now on,
29:30my life would follow
29:31GFO-28's route,
29:32never intersecting
29:33with Noah's.
29:48Dammit!
29:50I'd promised to meet Skylar
29:51before midnight
29:52for New Year's,
29:53but I'd ultimately
29:54broken my word.
29:58Is this
29:59Bella's Instagram?
30:01What shocked him
30:02even more
30:02was that every post
30:04Bella had been sharing
30:05was set to
30:06hide from
30:06Noah Hunter.
30:08Only now
30:09did he know
30:10Bella had been harassing
30:12me behind his back
30:13all along.
30:17What are these?
30:21What is it?
30:23Noah!
30:23I've regretted these
30:24five years apart.
30:26I posted these
30:27only because
30:28I didn't want
30:29anyone between us.
30:31Let's get back together.
30:33We ended
30:34long ago.
30:36From the day you left
30:37for that Dubai promotion
30:38without looking back.
30:40Now,
30:41I love Skylar!
30:44You are lying!
30:46If you don't love me,
30:48why do you come
30:49every time I call?
30:50Why would you rather
30:51stay with me
30:52than keep your
30:53New Year's date?
30:55I care for you
30:56out of collegiality.
30:58More
30:59as captain's
31:01responsibility.
31:02I don't believe it!
31:05Enough!
31:06Five years have passed.
31:08Everything's
31:09turned the page.
31:13I have a girlfriend
31:14now.
31:15For you.
31:17Only professional
31:18courtesy remains.
31:19No!
31:20It is not like that!
31:22Noah!
31:23Don't go!
31:24No!
31:25No!
31:25No!
31:26No!
31:26No!
31:30Skylar!
31:31I bought you
31:32cherries.
31:34Skylar?
31:40Noah!
31:41I am leaving!
31:42Wishing you
31:43and Bella
31:43continued success
31:44unlocking all
31:45108 positions.
31:52The number
31:53you have dialed
31:55is out of service.
31:57Answer!
31:58Skylar!
31:59Please answer!
32:02The number
32:03you have dialed
32:15is
32:15Skylar!
32:16Where did
32:17you even
32:18go?
32:24go!
32:36Robert!
32:37Where exactly
32:38did Skylar go?
32:39She got promoted
32:40to captain
32:41and transferred
32:42to Aurora Airlines.
32:44Why are you
32:45looking for her?
32:47Transfer
32:49When?
32:50Why didn't she tell me?
32:53Before, even minor things like flight delays
32:57Skyler would share with me first
32:58Now such a major transfer
33:01And I knew nothing
33:03This
33:04Is Skyler's career choice
33:06Why should she tell you?
33:09Skyler was your co-pilot for five years
33:13Otherwise, with her abilities
33:15She could have been captain three years ago
33:19Skyler could have been promoted to captain three years ago
33:24She'd stayed in the co-pilot position to fly with me
33:27Can I help you?
33:32Please tell me where she is
33:34I need to find her
33:37What will you do finding her?
33:40She has her new route
33:41You have your flights to handle
33:48She is my girlfriend
33:50I need to bring her back
33:54You've been together all along?
33:57Never went public?
33:59Yes
33:59Five years
34:04Five years
34:06You both hid it quite well
34:09Look this
34:13Seattle?
34:16Thank you
34:17I need a few days leave
34:19I'm going to find her immediately
34:32Skyler
34:33Skyler
34:33Having lived with you for five years
34:36Only now did I discover
34:37You had long since taken root in my heart
34:41If I had gone public earlier
34:44You might never have left me
34:49Five years
34:53Skyler Evans
34:54My love
34:54Five years
34:56Skyler and Noah
34:57Have been together five years
34:59Didn't Noah always like Bella
35:01Why the sudden announcement?
35:03Quick
35:03Them and ask
35:05What is going on?
35:07When did Skyler leave the group?
35:09Who wouldn't leave?
35:11Skyler was the underground girlfriend for five years
35:13The moment Bella came back
35:15Noah changed his attitude
35:17Drawing clear lines in front of everyone
35:19I'd leave too
35:21Who could take that?
35:24I never meant to distance myself
35:28Just wanted to wait a bit longer
35:30I was wrong
35:32Terribly
35:33Terribly wrong
35:34Skyler
35:45While Noah handled Handover Matters in New York
35:48I'd already piloted GFO 28
35:51Smoothly landing on Seattle-Tacoma Airport's runway
35:58Aurora Airlines GFO 28
36:01Calling Seattle Tower
36:04Go ahead
36:08GFO 28
36:10Requesting taxi instructions
36:12Surface wind 230 degrees at 5 knots
36:16Use taxiway
36:18O1 left to gate 3
36:19H
36:20GFO 28
36:21Welcome to Seattle
36:24Thank you
36:25Seattle Tower
36:28Welcome to Seattle Tower's greeting was quite enthusiastic today
36:32Captain Evans
36:35Crew members prepare to welcome banquet at Pilot's Home
36:39Hoping you'll lead us in opening this new route
36:41Okay
36:47Liam
36:49Let me reintroduce myself
36:52Liam Carter
36:53Your Seattle air traffic controller
36:56No wonder on the plane
36:57I'd found the tower voice both pleasant and familiar
37:03So it really was Liam
37:05He'd been my senior at flight school two years ahead
37:08A campus celebrity even then
37:11I'd always thought he'd become an outstanding captain
37:15Never imagined he'd chosen air traffic control
37:21Liam, hello
37:26Sorry, I just didn't expect to run into you here
37:33We few are really fated
37:34Same flight school graduates now in the same crew
37:38Back then, I secretly shipped you two as a couple
37:41Shame, it ended badly
37:44What do you mean, ended badly?
37:47Our Captain Skyler later fell for her instructor
37:50Too bad
37:52That guy wasn't very reliable
37:53Those words were like a fine needle
37:57Piercing my heart
37:59Those memories of Noah rushed in the initial flutter
38:02Five years of devotion
38:05Final betrayal
38:06Enough
38:07This was enough
38:11Back then, Liam always
38:15Ryan, try this
38:21Seven years ago
38:22We'd made a bet
38:23The loser had to grant the winner a request
38:27Confident I'd win
38:28I'd agreed to his condition of knitting a scarf
38:31Result
38:32I lost completely
38:33Forced to grip my teeth
38:34And knit this scarf with crooked stitches
38:37I'd never imagined that years later
38:39He'd still kept it
38:43This scarf
38:46Yeah, it is the one you gave me
38:51That was so long ago
38:54Not long for me
38:56Especially since it was something you gave me
38:58His tone was calm yet
39:00Like a pebble dropped into my heart's lake
39:14Just as I stepped off the plane
39:16I heard that familiar voice behind me
39:21Skyler!
39:30What are you doing here?
39:33I came to bring you home
39:35Home?
39:37In what capacity?
39:39Your secret lover you hid for five years?
39:42Or the third wheel between you and Bella?
39:46I'd already seen his social media posts
39:48But only found them laughable
39:51He demanded the underground relationship
39:56Now he was performing deep affection
39:59Look
40:00Every day
40:01I am posting to tell everyone you are my girlfriend
40:06Enough
40:07What is the point now?
40:09We ended long ago
40:12No, we can't end
40:14Bella and I really have nothing
40:16Those were all misunderstandings
40:20None of that matters anymore
40:24We're not compatible
40:26I don't want to see snow
40:28And remember standing alone in Times Square
40:30Until dawn on New Year's Eve
40:34Noah, go back
40:38That night
40:39I was because
40:43Because you left her alone in Sub-Zero Streets
40:45To spend New Year's Eve with another woman, right?
40:50Liam
40:51What are you doing here?
40:56Coming to back her up
40:57This isn't your business
40:59Let her go
41:02I warned you back at flight school
41:05If you truly cared for her
41:06Cherish her properly
41:07What did you do?
41:10This is between Skylar and me
41:15Now it is my business
41:20Skylar
41:21Give me a chance to pursue you, okay?
41:38Don't joke around
41:40Do you want to keep being harassed by him?
41:43He was doing this to help me completely break free from Noah
41:46Samona as outstanding as him
41:49How could he possibly actually be interested in me?
41:54Go back
41:56I am with Liam now
41:57We ended long ago
42:00We never officially broke up
42:02How can-
42:03Didn't you also immediately go find Bella?
42:06After she came back?
42:07Ah
42:10I
42:13Let's go
42:23Is this Bella's USB drive?
42:29Oh my god
42:30Bella had been leaking the company's trade secrets
42:33To competitors
42:34Even more shocking
42:36A folder named Plan
42:38Contained detailed records
42:39Of how she'd meticulously orchestrated
42:41Every chance encounter
42:42And those seemingly intimate photos
42:45Were actually staged
42:46While he was drunk
42:47Under her manipulation
42:48Those ambiguous private messages
42:51Were all her carefully scripted lines
42:52What angered him most
42:54She'd even contacted several tabloid media outlets
42:57Preparing to expose Global Airlines Captain Two-Timing News
43:01Attempting to completely destroy his career and love life
43:09Bella!
43:17Didn't expect you to initiate meeting me
43:22Uh
43:23What is this?
43:29What is the point forging these?
43:32Need me to hand these to the company's security department
43:34For authenticity verification
43:40Or directly to the police
43:50Let me explain
43:53Explain what?
43:55Explain how you calculatedly destroyed
43:57My relationship with Skylar
43:59Explain how you used my trust
44:02To steal company's secrets
44:05It is all because of her
44:07I loved you so much
44:09Came back from Dubai for you
44:11But you only had eyes for her
44:14So
44:16You retaliated this way
44:19Do you know this could ruin so many people's careers?
44:22I don't care
44:24What I can't have
44:26No one else should
44:28We're finished
44:29You'll pay for your actions
44:35The next day
44:36Noah brought all evidence
44:38To the company's security department
44:41Simultaneously
44:42The company's lawyer
44:43Sent termination letters
44:44To Bella's residence
44:46A week later
44:47Police officially arrested Bella
44:49On charges of commercial fraud
44:51And defamation
44:51The news quickly spread
44:54Through aviation circles
44:56Noah cooperated with police
44:58As key witness
44:59To complete the investigation
45:00Walking from the station
45:02He happened to see
45:04An Aurora Airlines aircraft streak
45:05Across the blue sky
45:07GFO 28
45:09Skylar must be in the cockpit right now
45:13Confidently
45:14Gripping the controls
45:16In that moment
45:17His heart felt both stabbing pain
45:19And strange relief
45:20That girl who once stood behind him
45:23Had now flown toward broader skies
45:27Noah didn't go to Seattle again
45:29He spent an entire week handwriting
45:32A long letter
45:35Dear Skylar
45:36You taught me what love is
45:38What responsibility means
45:41You gave up three promotion opportunities
45:43For me
45:44Yet I was blind
45:48You endured five years
45:49As my secret girlfriend
45:51Yet
45:52I took it for granted
45:54Now you are flying freely
45:55While I finally learned
45:57To let go
45:58May you forever
46:00Soar
46:00In your own blue skies
46:26Oh my god
46:28The right engine's out
46:30Shut down right engine
46:32Follow emergency procedures
46:34Engine shut down
46:36Skylar
46:36We only have one engine now
46:39Don't panic
46:40I'll handle it
46:44Passengers
46:45This is Captain Skylar
46:46The aircraft has encountered
46:48Some technical issues
46:49We're addressing
46:49Please remain calm
46:51And keep seatbelts fastened
46:55My god
46:56Single engine
46:57Not enough fuel
46:58To reach Tokyo
46:59Then we won't go to Tokyo
47:02How far to Anchorage
47:04400 plus nautical miles
47:07Just barely enough fuel
47:08If everything goes smoothly
47:12Anchorage airport
47:13This is GFO 28
47:15We need emergency landing
47:18GFO 28
47:20State your situation
47:22Right engine failure
47:23182 souls on board
47:26Requesting immediate landing
47:28Estimated arrival
47:29In 35 minutes
47:31Copy
47:32Runway cleared for you
47:34Emergency crew standing by
47:36The plane began descending
47:38Missing one engine
47:39The entire aircraft
47:40Tilted right
47:42I had to constantly adjust
47:44To maintain balance
47:48Fuel warning
47:50Don't panic
47:51Don't panic
47:52Ryan
47:52Follow my lead
47:53Take deep breaths
47:55We can do this
47:57I said for Ryan
47:59And myself
48:01Land finally appeared
48:02Outside the window
48:03Anchorage
48:04I'd never found this name
48:06So beautiful
48:08GFO 28
48:09Turn left
48:10Descend to 3000 feet
48:13Copy
48:15This was the most dangerous moment
48:17Single engine landing
48:19No second chances
48:20200 feet
48:23100 feet
48:2510 feet
48:26Finally
48:28The plane stopped
48:51GFO 28
48:52Welcome to Anchorage
48:54Well done, Captain
48:58Skylar
49:00You just saved everyone
49:02Those 35 minutes
49:04Felt like a century
49:06I truly felt
49:08Death's proximity
49:08For the first time
49:11And for the first time
49:12I felt
49:14I could hold up
49:15The sky on my own
49:16All those voices
49:18Saying
49:18I wasn't calm enough
49:20Didn't deserve
49:21To be captain
49:23Now they could all
49:24Shut up
49:24Three days after
49:26The engine failure
49:26Incident
49:27Aurora Airlines
49:29Held a celebration
49:30Banquet for me
49:32Liam stayed by my side
49:34All evening
49:36Deflecting drinks
49:37Serving food
49:39Attentive beyond ignoring
49:52Skylar
49:54There is something
49:55There is something I must
49:55To tell you
49:59I like you
50:00I've liked you
50:01Since the day
50:01I first saw you
50:02For a full
50:03Seven years
50:05Seven years?
50:07Watching you with Noah
50:08Every day
50:09Was torture
50:12But I thought
50:13As long as you were happy
50:15Now you are
50:15Finally free
50:17I don't want to miss
50:18This chance
50:23Liam
50:24I know you might not be ready
50:27But Skylar
50:28Give me a chance
50:29To prove love
50:30Doesn't have to be a burden
50:32I'm meeting his determined gaze
50:34I think about Liam's
50:36Seven year vigil
50:38Noah's five year dismissiveness
50:41What I truly wanted
50:44What if I am not sure
50:46I can love you?
50:47Then I'll work to make you love me
50:50Let's try
50:52Thank you
50:53Skylar
51:06The next day at work
51:08My inbox held two emails
51:11One was from the company's HR department
51:13Promoted to director of flight standards
51:15In recognition of outstanding performance
51:18The other email
51:20Was from Noah
51:22In his letter
51:23He congratulated me on my promotion
51:25And thanked me for helping him become a better person
51:28Additionally
51:29He has accepted a transfer to the Africa route
51:32And will depart next week
51:33I stared at the screen for a long time
51:36Finally replying four words
51:38Take care
51:43Three years later
51:54Long time no see
52:02Long time
52:08Heard you are getting married?
52:13Next month
52:20Liam is a good man
52:22Much better than me
