Short filmTranscript
00:00:06My name is Julian Mitchell, captain of the Apex Strike Team.
00:00:11I'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.
00:00:53Please 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.
00:01:30Jeez, 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.
00:02:02Today, 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.
00:02:17All right, here we are. This is the old neighborhood, yeah?
00:02:39Stop it! Calm down!
00:02:41Oh 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?
00:02:51Who 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.
00:03:11You bastard! I'm going to kill you!
00:03:14No!
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.
00:03:49You're Ruby's brother, the soldier?
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?
00:04:17She... 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.
00:04:59And I'm never leaving again.
00:05:06Julian.
00:05:07Our mom.
00:05:08She passed away.
00:05:09She's buried at Eckery 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 $137,000.
00:05:52I need to come up with a million.
00:05:54No matter what it takes.
00:05:58Security guard.
00:06:00$3,500 a month.
00:06:02Construction worker.
00:06:04$200 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, are you alright?
00:06:45Who the hell are you?
00:06:46I don't even know you.
00:06:47Get your hands off me.
00:06:51Get 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.
00:07:10But I can't just watch these scumbags mess with a woman.
00:07:18Leave her alone.
00:07:20Leave her alone.
00:07:22Leave her alone.
00:07:25Trying to be a hero, huh?
00:07:26You're biting off more than you can shoot.
00:07:29Be smart and get lost or I'll make you regret it.
00:07:32Scumbags.
00:07:43Are you okay?
00:07:44Yeah, I'm okay.
00:07:46Thank 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 Haley Chapman.
00:07:56So what's your name?
00:07:58Julian Mitchell.
00:08:08I'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.
00:08:18Um, 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.
00:08:25All right.
00:08:38What's your number?
00:08:39I'll wash and iron your clothes, then return them to you tomorrow.
00:08:44That's okay.
00:08:45I can wash them myself.
00:08:47It'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, beat me, or beat everyone else here, and you're in.
00:09:21I'm not here to waste time.
00:09:22My expected annual salary is one million.
00:09:26This twig wants a million?
00:09:42Now you know I'm not just all talk.
00:09:47What's your name?
00:09:49Julian Mitchell.
00:09:52What did you do before this?
00:09:54I was a soldier.
00:09:56There's no one I respect more than a soldier.
00:10:02I'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.
00:10:12Are 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,
00:10:19I'd protect whoever it is with my life, no matter the cost.
00:10:22Good. Sign it.
00:10:28Sir, I have one request.
00:10:30I'd like to receive my first year's salary in advance.
00:10:33All right. I 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.
00:10:57The CEO of Picvia Group, Gianna Palmer.
00:11:00Who are you?
00:11:03Who are you?
00:11:04And what are you doing in my dad's office?
00:11:07Gianna, this is the bodyguard I hired for you, Julian.
00:11:10Some suspicious people have been spotted near the company.
00:11:12Your safety is my top priority.
00:11:14He'll be providing you with around-the-clock protection.
00:11:16Dad, are you crazy?
00:11:17See? I don't need a bodyguard, and I definitely don't need some stranger following me at all times.
00:11:22You can have your way on everything else, but on this, I need you to listen to me.
00:11:31This is insane.
00:11:33I have to get rid of this blockhead.
00:11:41Whatever my dad is paying you, I'll double it.
00:11:44Just take the money and leave.
00:11:45Pretend you were never here.
00:11:48I've already signed a contract with your dad.
00:11:51Three million dollars.
00:11:52Four million.
00:11:53Five million.
00:11:54Six million.
00:11:55I'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.
00:12:01The rest is none of my concern.
00:12:03Fine.
00:12:04So 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.
00:12:10No way a guy on foot is keeping up with my million-dollar sports car.
00:12:13You won't move in my damn life.
00:12:17No matter where you run, I will keep up.
00:12:28Are you even human?
00:12:29She's going into the underground parking garage alone.
00:12:32If there's an ambush, it could get ugly.
00:12:34I have to get in there.
00:12:36He actually caught up.
00:12:37Who is this guy anyway?
00:12:42Stop.
00:12:43Who are you?
00:12:45This is a private building.
00:12:48Get lost if you've got no business here.
00:12:50Please, let me in.
00:12:51I'm a private bodyguard.
00:12:53My client just drove into the underground garage.
00:12:55I have to make sure she's safe.
00:12:57A bodyguard?
00:12:58We weren't notified.
00:13:00Stop 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.
00:13:09Not for scum like you.
00:13:10You're really asking for it, you little punk.
00:13:12What are you standing here for?
00:13:15You want me to have security toss you out?
00:13:21That hurts!
00:13:22Let go!
00:13:23You son of a bitch!
00:13:24Let me go!
00:13:25I just need to find Gianna.
00:13:26As for this clown, I'm barely even trying.
00:13:28If you get in my way again, it's going to hurt a lot worse.
00:13:31You bastard!
00:13:32Everyone, grab 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!
00:13:49This is hardly a warm-up.
00:13:51You think you can take on all 20 of us alone?
00:13:53We'll break your legs!
00:13:54Get lost!
00:13:55Get lost!
00:13:55Get lost!
00:13:59Is it that hard to take you guys down?
00:14:02Get him!
00:14:03Beat the hell out of him!
00:14:05I'll take the blame for whatever happens!
00:14:10What's going on?
00:14:11Are they going to beat that guy up?
00:14:13Holy crap!
00:14:14Who is that guy?
00:14:16You're asking for it, you punk.
00:14:18Guys, get him!
00:14:26Damn!
00:14:27He's a total badass!
00:14:29Taking on the entire security team by himself!
00:14:37Stop!
00:14:38Stop!
00:14:38I think she's the woman I saved.
00:14:40She seems really important to me.
00:14:42Julian, are you okay?
00:14:43Are you hurt?
00:14:44They didn't do anything to you, did they?
00:14:46I'm fine.
00:14:47Don't worry.
00:14:48They can't hurt me.
00:14:54Lincoln, what were you thinking?
00:14:56Having your men gang up on one person like that?
00:14:58He's my friend!
00:15:00And he was just looking for me.
00:15:02Miss Chapman, this is a misunderstanding.
00:15:04I didn't know he was your friend.
00:15:06My apologies.
00:15:07I'm so sorry.
00:15:09Please forgive me.
00:15:10I almost offended someone important.
00:15:14Who is she really?
00:15:29Julian, are you here for me?
00:15:32Looking at this woman who was wasted last night,
00:15:36I wonder why she's asking that.
00:15:41No.
00:15:43Then what are you doing here?
00:15:45I'm a bodyguard.
00:15:49Don't tell me you work for Gianna.
00:15:53Hayley, how'd it go?
00:15:55Did you get rid of that annoying guy?
00:15:57I never want to see him again.
00:16:01Julian, you've breached the contract.
00:16:03You're fired.
00:16:04Your 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.
00:16:15Get out.
00:16:19So annoying.
00:16:21He just won't leave me alone.
00:16:27Well, this is getting interesting.
00:16:35I'm Adeline Foster, Ms. Palmer's secretary.
00:16:37This is your office.
00:16:39Okay.
00:16:39Let me know if you need anything.
00:16:41Thanks.
00:16:43Life's way too easy now.
00:16:45A total 180 from how it used to be.
00:16:47A seven-figure salary.
00:16:49An air-conditioned office.
00:16:51But I know this job isn't as easy as it looks.
00:16:55Gianna is surrounded by danger.
00:17:10No more smoking outside my office.
00:17:12This is a place of business.
00:17:14Not your personal smoking lounge.
00:17:18Yes, Ms. Palmer.
00:17:29Gianna, you're finally off.
00:17:31I've been waiting for you.
00:17:32Let's go get some dinner.
00:17:33Sorry, Luke.
00:17:34I'm busy tonight.
00:17:35And please, stop showing up here.
00:17:38This is my assistant, Julian Mitchell.
00:17:44Good to see you, Julian.
00:17:48Let's go.
00:17:55This guy who totally looks like a trust fund kid
00:17:58is holding a bouquet of roses waiting for my client.
00:18:00Gianna, you're free tonight, right?
00:18:02Let me take you out for dinner.
00:18:03I've already booked a table.
00:18:05Hey, you.
00:18:06What do you think you're doing?
00:18:07I'm Ms. Palmer's personal bodyguard.
00:18:09Of course I'm getting in the car.
00:18:10You?
00:18:11This idiot seems to be trying to show off in front of Gianna,
00:18:14but he picked the wrong guy.
00:18:16A bodyguard?
00:18:17Don't get my car dirty.
00:18:18Get lost.
00:18:22You better keep your hands to yourself.
00:18:24Still trying to act tough, huh?
00:18:26So what if I do get physical?
00:18:29The crowd watches as Luke spins a full 720 degrees in the air from the sheer force of the slap.
00:18:41You, you're going to regret this.
00:18:43I won't let you get away with it.
00:18:51Shit, you hit me!
00:18:52My car!
00:18:53I just bought this!
00:18:55Security!
00:18:56Where the hell is everybody?
00:18:57Get this bastard!
00:18:58I want him in jail!
00:19:00Wait, Luke.
00:19:01It's a misunderstanding.
00:19:02He's my distant relative.
00:19:04He just came from the countryside.
00:19:05He doesn't know any better.
00:19:06What?
00:19:07A distant relative?
00:19:08Him?
00:19:10Gianna, since when do you have a distant relative like this?
00:19:12I've never heard you mention him.
00:19:13It's true.
00:19:14He's a distant cousin.
00:19:16I've known him since we were kids.
00:19:17He didn't know what he was doing just now.
00:19:19Please, don't stoop to his level.
00:19:20I'll make it up to you.
00:19:21I'll make a reservation at your favorite restaurant, okay?
00:19:24I'm not apologizing to someone like that.
00:19:26Why is Gianna so nervous?
00:19:27She even glared at me.
00:19:29What are you waiting for?
00:19:30Let's go.
00:19:33Gianna!
00:19:34Gianna!
00:19:35Gianna!
00:19:35This isn't over!
00:19:37You hear me?
00:19:37It's not over!
00:19:39And don't forget what you said about dinner!
00:19:47Julian, do you have any idea who you just messed with?
00:19:50That was Luke Watson, heir to the Watson Group.
00:19:53His father is Wyatt Watson, chairman of Sruestol Realty.
00:19:56You hit him, and you wrecked his car?
00:19:59He is not going to let this go.
00:20:03Here, take this.
00:20:04That's two million dollars.
00:20:06It's more than enough to start over anywhere.
00:20:08You're leaving the city.
00:20:10Tonight.
00:20:11My duty is to protect you.
00:20:14Don't worry about Luke coming after me.
00:20:16Take this back.
00:20:17You!
00:20:18Why are you being so stubborn?
00:20:21His father is Wyatt Watson, that big shot from Sruestol Realty.
00:20:27It doesn't matter if it's Wyatt Watson or anyone else.
00:20:30Like I said, my only job is to protect you.

00:52:17and tried to assault me
00:52:19julian was just trying to stop him
00:52:21and he accidentally hurt them
00:52:23he was protecting me
00:52:24not deliberately causing trouble
00:52:28i know you've held a grudge against me since school
00:52:31but that's no reason to slander me
00:52:33how could you team up with julian to frame me and have him attack me
00:52:38you're lying how despicable
00:52:40oh so that's what this is about
00:52:42i guess she held a grudge after being rejected and now is trying to get revenge
00:52:45yeah you're right
00:52:46she must be alive
00:52:47how could she slander leo like this
00:52:53leo you'll regret this
00:52:55julian let's go
00:52:56let's not waste our time on people like him
00:52:58not so fast
00:53:00officer
00:53:00i want to press charges against them
00:53:03i will make them pay for this
00:53:04all right then
00:53:06you are all coming with me to the station to make a full statement
00:53:09the police will take it from there
00:53:14tell me
00:53:14what happened
00:53:15i want the whole story from start to finish
00:53:18don't leave anything out
00:53:19it's in everyone's best interest
00:53:23i need to stay calm
00:53:24the only way to make that bastard pay
00:53:27is to tell them everything
00:53:30hayley asked me to go with her to the translation company
00:53:34we ran into her high school classmate
00:53:36leo
00:53:38he kept provoking me
00:53:40and then he tried to assault hayley
00:53:43i only hurt them to protect her
00:53:45i see
00:53:46i think i get the picture
00:53:47leo was targeting hayley from the start
00:53:48the problem is
00:53:50you don't have any evidence
00:53:52we can't charge him with anything directly
00:53:54what
00:53:54i thought i was a witness
00:53:58you and hayley are a couple
00:53:59your testimony isn't credible enough
00:54:02we're not seeing each other
00:54:03well leo thinks you are
00:54:10now he wants to press charges against you for assault
00:54:18and who's to say i hurt him on purpose
00:54:21i can claim he attacked me first
00:54:24and it was self-defense
00:54:26besides
00:54:26his secretary's testimony is hardly credible
00:54:30their relationship is hardly professional
00:54:36all right
00:54:37you can go
00:54:39officer how can you just let him go
00:54:41he attacked me and framed me
00:54:43you should arrest him
00:54:45not release him
00:54:48since neither of you could provide any solid evidence
00:54:50i have to release him
00:54:55you'd better drop whatever you're plotting
00:54:57or it'll backfire on you
00:55:09julian
00:55:09you got lucky this time
00:55:11if it had happened a month ago
00:55:13a scum like you
00:55:14would have been dead by my hand

01:06:57your wounds need to be taken care of
01:06:59no it's fine
01:07:00miss palmer hasn't eaten yet
01:07:02what are you a bodyguard or a nanny
01:07:05miss palmer hurt her ankle
01:07:06so
01:07:07it's hard for her to get around
01:07:09by the way
01:07:09she said she wanted to talk to you about that email
01:07:11she really said that
01:07:14yeah
01:07:19julian opens the passenger door for her
01:07:24please
01:07:27haley
01:07:28don't mention the kidnapping to miss palmer
01:07:30she'll feel guilty and blame herself
01:07:32it's in the past
01:07:33so there's no need for her to know
01:07:38you're awfully considerate of your employer aren't you
01:07:42i try to think of everything
01:07:47it's my job
01:07:54julian drives her toward the house
01:08:14unaware of everything we've been through
01:08:16gianna is furious when i finally walk through the door
01:08:19you're finally back
01:08:21are you trying to starve me
01:08:27haley
01:08:28why are you with julian
01:08:29when she sees haley
01:08:30she's instantly delighted
01:08:32i was kidnapped
01:08:33julian just rescued me
01:08:38he told me to keep it a secret from you
01:08:39but i think you need to know
01:08:45he does so much more than a regular bodyguard
01:08:49gianna
01:08:49i'm so jealous of you
01:08:52haley
01:08:54it's a little awkward with just me and him living here
01:08:58could you move in and stay with me
01:09:05of course
01:09:06free food and a place to stay i'd love to
01:09:15we're screwed gianna
01:09:19it's full of technical terms
01:09:20the online translation is just a jumbled mess
01:09:23it's completely useless
01:09:24what if there's some kind of trap in it
01:09:26if we reply to it without thinking we'll get ourselves in big trouble
01:09:30i've already called the translator several times
01:09:33but he's out of town and can't get back
01:09:36those must be his excuses
01:09:37they're just trying to stall us
01:09:39why don't you let me take a look
01:09:41julian you're not kidding are you
01:09:42this is business and legal french
01:09:44it's not as simple as just saying hello
01:09:46i know a bit i happen to have dealt with this kind of content before
01:09:55they want to cooperate but they're trying to get the upper hand
01:09:57if you reply before the end of the day today you'll be at a disadvantage
01:10:01so you're saying we should just leave them hanging and not rush to reply
01:10:04exactly let them stew for a day or two so they can't figure out what you're planning
01:10:08they're in more of a hurry than you are
01:10:10wait for them to reach out first
01:10:12and the ball will be back in your court
01:10:14then you can negotiate with them for every condition

01:13:07the elevator doors open
01:13:09and adeline comes out holding a box
01:13:13a package for miss palmer
01:13:14as i pass by her
01:13:16i faintly hear a ticking sound
01:13:20my expression changed
01:13:24that's the sound of a timing device
01:13:26i immediately rush to gianna's office
01:13:32outside gianna's office
01:13:34the door is ajar
01:13:36gianna is happily unwrapping the package
01:13:40i dash in and snatch the box from her
01:13:51i go to the restroom to wash my face and calm down
01:14:04there's definitely more to this blood bomb incident than meets the eye
01:14:14did they go after her again
01:14:18forget it
01:14:19i'll have a talk with her in a few days

01:14:33i'm not really hurt
01:14:36let's go find miss palmer and madeline
01:14:37okay
01:14:39last time they tried to kill her
01:14:40this time
01:14:41they sent a blood splattering bomb
01:14:43i wonder what's next
01:14:45can the police send someone to protect gianna
01:14:51not yet
01:14:53julian
01:14:54you're here
01:15:03miss palmer
01:15:03i found this in your office
01:15:07who would do something like this to gianna
01:15:10who the hell is trying
01:15:12to hurt gianna
01:15:14julian already called the police
01:15:16gianna
01:15:17do you have a suspect in mind
01:15:19no
01:15:20i've always done business by the book
01:15:22okay
01:15:23then do you have the shipping information
01:15:25like
01:15:26the shipping label
01:15:32no need to find that
01:15:35i remember the information on it
01:15:39but i don't think you ever saw the packaging did you
01:15:43i came across it in the elevator earlier
01:15:46i happened to glance at it
01:15:49go ahead
01:15:50i'll write it down
01:15:51i can't believe he remembers
01:15:54julian
01:15:57this bomb must be from the same person who was trying to harm gianna
01:16:02what should i do
01:16:06madeline scribbles the address in her notebook
01:16:09julian really cares about gianna
01:16:11he remembers every little detail
01:16:15i suggest we focus the investigation on someone working for picvia group
01:16:22why
01:16:24miss palmer's packages are delivered at the same time every day
01:16:27plus this is the tallest building in the area
01:16:29so you can't see into the office from any of the nearby buildings
01:16:34that means the person behind this must be someone familiar with miss palmer's schedule
01:16:38okay
01:16:39i'll arrange for someone to investigate right now
01:16:44gianna stands up and walks out of the office
01:16:51haley bandaged my hand wound and ties it into a bow
01:16:55is it her way of showing care
01:16:59you need to be more careful from now on
01:17:01don't get hurt again
01:17:05okay
