00:00In just 10 minutes, we'll be interviewing the guy who stole Girls Hearts worldwide, Ryan Mitchell.
00:05His third album has sold over 3 million copies in 24 hours.
00:08No, thank you.
00:09I was looking forward to watching that.
00:11What are you doing here?
00:12Easy. Don't take it out on the bread.
00:17Nervous.
00:18I don't know why. It is my second year teaching, and I am more nervous than when I started.
00:22You'll be fine. The kids love you.
00:24It is about leaving them, isn't it? They're only coming to mind.
00:27I know. It is just...
00:28Don't worry. They love me.
00:30Speaking of, where are they?
00:31Mommy!
00:32Good morning to you, too.
00:34Are we going to Uncle Jake's house today?
00:36You are? Mommy's starting work again, and tomorrow you're starting playgroup.
00:40With Gray?
00:41Mommy! Uncle Jakey!
00:43There is my girl.
00:44Nearly five years ago, I gave birth to my twins. Noah came first.
00:47Grace arrived nine minutes later. A complete surprise.
00:50Their father wasn't there. He hasn't been here since.
00:52Relax. Everything's fine.
00:54I'll be at yours around 5.
00:56I put everything in their bags.
00:58You have my number. They're medicine.
01:00It is not the first time I've looked after them, Emma.
01:02I just hate leaving them.
01:04Be good for Uncle Jake, okay?
01:06Yes, Mommy!
01:07I built this life from nothing.
01:09I have everything I need.
01:11Almost everything.
01:13Thank you, everyone.
01:18I teach music at the same school I graduated from.
01:21At first it was strange.
01:23Reliving the good and the bad.
01:25But nothing really changes.
01:26High school will always be high school.
01:29Guess who?
01:31Emma!
01:32Damn! Every time!
01:34Hey, Emma.
01:35Excited for the new year?
01:36Always. You?
01:38Why not?
01:39Okay, class.
01:41First day of a new school.
01:42Scary older kids watching your every move.
01:44Not knowing anyone.
01:45Wanting to run home.
01:47Am I getting it right?
01:48I've been through it.
01:49Don't worry.
01:49It gets better today.
01:50Since it is our first class,
01:52I want you to get to know each other
01:53and feel comfortable here.
01:54Sound fair?
01:55I'll start.
01:56My name is Miss Clark.
01:57I have two beautiful children,
01:58and I love music.
01:59My favorite instrument is the piano.
02:01Your turn.
02:02Okay?
02:03My name is Rimi.
02:04I went to St. Peter's.
02:06I have a little sister who's six,
02:07and someday I hope to change the world.
02:10I believe you will.
02:14Mommy, Uncle Jake promised to take me swimming.
02:17Hey, kid, did he eat now?
02:18Maybe eat.
02:19Always making promises.
02:21Mommy! Mommy!
02:23The Tickle Monster wants to play.
02:31What did I miss?
02:33My wedding photos finally came through.
02:34That is amazing.
02:35You brought them.
02:36Not yet.
02:37Still looking through them.
02:38I promise I'll bring them over.
02:39I'll hold you to that.
02:40So, what is new?
02:42Well, um, you know, maybe...
02:47What?
02:48Jake and I are moving the wedding forward.
02:51To when?
02:51I thought December.
02:52Two months forward.
02:54October.
02:54October.
02:55Seriously.
02:55Can you get everything done by then?
02:57That's what I have you girls for.
03:04No.
03:06Sir, the tour schedule has been set.
03:08I said no.
03:10My client isn't happy with the current schedule.
03:13We can tweak it.
03:14Of course.
03:15When would you prefer?
03:17Mid-January.
03:18My boss will need a reason, sir.
03:24Family matter.
03:26This meeting is over.
03:27Total waste of time.
03:29But you got what you wanted.
03:30Vincent, I never want anything.
03:33The crowd's getting bigger since you arrived.
03:36Let's just get this over with.
03:38Five years of fame.
03:39I loved most of it.
03:40My first single hit number one in two days.
03:43I was dizzy.
03:45Tours, signings, sharing stages with idols.
03:48Two years flew by.
03:49But when it all fell quiet, I was alone.
03:55Hello?
03:55Hey, brother.
03:57Jack.
03:57It's been a while.
03:58Listen, I'm moving the wedding up to October.
04:00Need my best man there early.
04:01I'll drive back tomorrow.
04:02Ryan, there's something I need to talk to you about when you get here.
04:05What is it?
04:06Can't say over the phone.
04:07Just be prepared.
04:08Tomorrow, I want to help out.
04:10Besides, it's been years.
04:12I think that's a great idea.
04:17Come with me.
04:18And I don't want the paparazzi bothering you.
04:21I love how you protect me.
04:34Get some rest.
04:36Long day tomorrow.
04:38Five years ago, I left her.
04:40I made a promise, and I broke it.
04:43Tomorrow, I'm going back to that town.
04:45Where it all began.
04:47Where it all fell apart.
04:50Emma, I need to tell you something.
04:52Okay.
04:53Um, I, uh...
04:55Why is everyone doing this?
04:56This.
04:57Doing what?
04:57You start to say something, then you hesitate, then you change the subject, or just run off.
05:00You, Jack, Lily, Fiona, all of you!
05:03What are you hiding from me?
05:04Oh, that!
05:05Oh, that I was hoping you could cover Mr. Henderson's English class for me on Thursday.
05:09He teaches English, and there's a Schoolably on Thursday.
05:12I know.
05:12Please.
05:13I'm asking as a friend.
05:14And if you say no, I'm ordering you as the head of the music department.
05:16You can't refuse that.
05:17Fine.
05:18Can I ask why?
05:19No.
05:19Why not?
05:21I don't want to be the one who tells you.
05:23Remind me again why I, a music teacher, am covering an English class?
05:26Because you love me, and you're willing to do me a favor.
05:28That's not a good enough reason.
05:35Does anyone know what's going on in the music department today?
05:37Some celebrity is speaking at the assembly.
05:39Great.
05:40And I'm stuck in here.
05:42Weather's so nice.
05:42We don't want to be stuck in a class.
05:44Tell you what.
05:44Go outside and write a one-page story about your summer vacation.
05:48Fair?
05:48Yeah.
05:50Miss Clark, why won't Mr. Market let you go to the assembly?
05:54I'd like to know that, too.
05:55Then let's sneak in and see.
05:57I can't let you sneak into an assembly.
05:59Fine.
05:59We'll just stay outside and work on our assignments.
06:01Very seriously.
06:08I caught your three little swordsmen sneaking into my assembly.
06:11I told them not to go.
06:12I'm sure you did.
06:14He's so handsome.
06:16I can't believe the school got him.
06:17He's super famous.
06:19Who is the guest speaker?
06:20See you tomorrow.
06:22What is wrong with everyone?
06:24Honey, wake up.
06:25We're here.
06:27I'm up.
06:27Sort out your hair.
06:29I'm so excited seeing where you grew up, where you went to school.
06:32She hadn't met my parents yet.
06:33They've been doing better the last five years, but they barely spoke to me.
06:37Like, they were angry at me for something I couldn't name.
06:39Ryan, tomorrow you are the guest speaker at your old school's music assembly.
06:43Sure.
06:44Aren't you excited to see your old friends?
06:47Some of them.
06:48I'm not sure how they'll react to me being back.
06:50It'll be fine.
06:51Just stuck.
06:52Probably.
06:54My old locker, right next to hers.
06:57The football field where we celebrated after the big game.
06:59Every corner of this place holds a piece of her.
07:01Ryan, you okay?
07:03I am ready.
07:04Please welcome Ryan Mitchell.
07:10Welcome back.
07:11Six years ago, I was sitting in that crowd.
07:13Now look at me.
07:13Famous.
07:14Successful.
07:15I'm completely lost.
07:16It's an honor to have you back, Ryan.
07:17It is a pleasure to be back, sir.
07:21That went well?
07:22Yeah, it did.
07:24She wasn't there.
07:25Part of me was relieved.
07:27The rest of me was terrified of what that meant.
07:29Thanks for coming early, man.
07:31Lily's been stressing about everything.
07:33That's what best men are for.
07:37It's the florist.
07:37I've got to take this.
07:39Come on, buddy.
07:39Let's go inside.
07:42Ryan, could you keep an eye on Grace?
07:43Sure.
07:45Grace?
07:46Grace?
07:46Where are you?
07:48Grace?
07:50Jake's going to kill me.
07:52Grace?
07:53Grace, what are you doing up there?
07:55What's your name?
07:56Ryan, now will you come down?
07:57Nope.
07:58Who are you?
07:58I'm here for the wedding.
07:59I'm the best man.
08:00Oh, the pig man.
08:02Pig man?
08:03That's what mummy calls you.
08:04She calls you other names too, but I'm not allowed to repeat those words.
08:07Right, now please come down.
08:09I haven't seen you before.
08:10No, first time home in five years.
08:12Why?
08:13I've been busy.
08:14No, you had the chance.
08:15You just didn't take it.
08:16Everybody has a choice.
08:17You just have to look harder and make room.
08:19You had the chance.
08:20You chose not to.
08:20How old are you?
08:21One, two, three, four.
08:23Four.
08:24Grace!
08:24Crap, please come down.
08:25Fine, I can't.
08:26I'm too hard.
08:27Grace, what did your mother do?
08:28What did I tell you about climbing trees?
08:30I'm sorry.
08:30I want to come down.
08:32Okay, sweetie.
08:33Turn around.
08:34Put your foot in the hole in the tree.
08:36Can you do that?
08:40Thanks, Ryan.
08:44She needs stitches.
08:47Let's go.
08:47Now.
08:54Doctor, we need a doctor here.
08:58I need to make a call.
09:00Be right back.
09:05Who are you?
09:06Sorry, kid.
09:07I've been gone five years.
09:09Will Grace be okay?
09:11Don't worry.
09:12She'll be fine.
09:13Maybe a little scar.
09:15Mom is gonna be so mad.
09:18Don't remind me.
09:19She's gonna kill me.
09:20When's mom coming?
09:22Any minute now.
09:26How's Grace?
09:27She's fine.
09:28Just a few stitches.
09:30What is he doing here?
09:31He just got back yesterday.
09:33You're in big trouble.
09:35Emma will freak off when she sees him.
09:37Mom!
09:41Help me.
09:42Where is she?
09:43What happened?
09:44Is she okay?
09:44She's fine, Emma.
09:46She climbed a tree, fell, got a scratch.
09:48They're stitching her up now.
09:49A scratch, Jake.
09:50You call that a scratch?
09:53Okay.
09:58What is he doing here?
09:59Why is he here?
10:01Emma, I...
10:02Don't!
10:03Mom, what's wrong?
10:04Mommy's fine.
10:05Let's see your sister.
10:08This is what you've been hiding from me.
10:10What a mess.
10:20My baby, does it hurt?
10:22Mommy, my leg really hurts.
10:25It's okay.
10:26Don't be scared.
10:28You're very brave.
10:31I told you, don't climb trees.
10:33That uncle saved me.
10:35Which uncle?
10:37That piggy uncle.
10:39When I fell, he caught me.
10:48Is she okay?
10:49Not good.
10:50Twelve stitches.
10:51I'm sorry, I got distracted for just a second.
10:53I told you, no climbing that tree.
10:54I know, I already feel terrible.
11:05As long as he can walk.
11:07He arrived yesterday.
11:08He's my best man.
11:09The wedding can't...
11:09Why didn't you tell me?
11:10Tell you, would you have been okay with it?
11:12Definitely not, but I had a right to know.
11:14You, Lily, Fiona, Marcus, all of you, treating me like I'll shatter.
11:17He just didn't want to hurt you.
11:19I don't need protection, I need honesty.
11:21He doesn't know about the twins.
11:23What?
11:23He doesn't know the kids are yours.
11:25He doesn't know he has a son and a daughter.
11:27Good.
11:29He can never know.
11:31Do you mind?
11:32You do?
11:39Okay.
11:39You've got some nerve showing up here.
11:41Jake invited me.
11:42I'm his best man.
11:43I'm not talking about the wedding, Ryan.
11:45I'm talking about right now, sitting here, in her space.
11:48I didn't know the kids were...
11:49Hers.
11:50Yeah.
11:50They are.
11:52She has kids.
11:53Twins.
11:54She does.
11:54She raised them on her own.
11:56At 18.
11:57She looks...
11:58She looks good.
11:59Don't!
12:00Don't you dare sit here and...
12:04Hi, pig man.
12:06Hi, Grace.
12:07Grace, we're going home.
12:09Emma...
12:09Thank you for catching my daughter.
12:10We're even now.
12:11Goodbye.
12:12Emma, wait.
12:12Please.
12:14I know I don't deserve a single second of your time, but I'm going to be here for the wedding.
12:18We're going to see each other.
12:19Can we at least...
12:20What?
12:20Be civil?
12:21Fine.
12:21We'll be civil.
12:22But don't mistake that for forgiveness.
12:28She's stronger than you think.
12:29She had to be.
12:30Because you weren't there.
12:32She was a mother.
12:33She'd built an entire life without me.
12:35And I'd missed all of it.
12:36Mommy, is the pig man staying?
12:39For a little while.
12:40For Uncle Jake's wedding.
12:41He was nice.
12:42He caught me.
12:43I know he did, baby.
12:45Why don't you like him?
12:46It's complicated, sweetheart.
12:48Grown-up stuff.
12:48Did he make you sad?
12:51A long time ago.
12:53But I have you and Noah now, and you make me the happiest mommy in the world.
12:57Mommy?
12:58Yes, sweetheart?
12:59That man at the hospital.
13:00He looked at me funny, like he knew me.
13:02He's just Uncle Jake's friend.
13:04He hasn't been home in a long time.
13:05Does he know Daddy?
13:06Why do you ask that?
13:08Grace has Daddy's eyes.
13:10That man has the same eyes.
13:12You have a big imagination, mister.
13:14Get some sleep.
13:20Hey, how's Grace?
13:21Twelve stitches.
13:22She'll be fine.
13:22Fiona, he's here.
13:24I know.
13:25I'm sorry we didn't tell you.
13:26Noah noticed his eyes.
13:28He asked if Brian knows his dad.
13:29Oh, Emma.
13:30What do I do?
13:30He's going to be here for weeks.
13:31The wedding, the preparations.
13:33He's the best man.
13:33I can't avoid him forever.
13:34You don't have to tell him anything you're not ready to tell him.
13:37But the kids, they look just like him.
13:39Grace is his mirror imagens.
13:40Anyone with eyes can see it.
13:41Then you deal with it when it comes, and we'll be right beside you.
13:44I spent five years building a life without him.
13:46I can't let him walk back in and destroy it.
13:48He won't.
13:48You're stronger than that.
13:54This is so wonderful.
13:56I've never seen an English countryside wedding before.
13:59I can't wait.
14:00So glad you could come.
14:04Brian, the best man arrangements are set.
14:06Fitting for the suits next week.
14:07No problem.
14:08Anything else you need me to do?
14:09Just help out with the day-to-day stuff.
14:11And don't upset my sister.
14:13Sister, Jack.
14:15I've never heard you mention a sister before.
14:20Emma is my sister.
14:26You never mentioned this.
14:29Never had a chance to.
14:43So beautiful here.
14:45No wonder you love it.
14:59Is that Jack's sister?
15:01Yeah.
15:03She's beautiful.
15:05The little girl looks just like you.
15:07What?
15:07The eyes.
15:08She looks like she could be...
15:09Don't be ridiculous.
15:10Impossible.
15:10I saw it clearly.
15:13I'm not stupid.
15:14That child...
15:16Is clearly his mirror emission.
15:19I saw it clearly.
15:40What?
16:00Clone.
16:01Like I said.
16:01I saw it.
16:02systèmes ofzerain.
16:02Yeah.
16:02engineer.
16:02I saw it.
16:04I saw it.
16:26Hey, his girlfriend commented on my daughter's eyes, Fiona.
16:29My daughter's eyes, which are his eyes.
16:31She doesn't know.
16:32How long before she figures it out?
16:34How long before he does?
16:35Because Grace is his carbon copy.
16:36What do you want to do?
16:37I want to get through this wedding and then never see him again.
16:40And if he finds out before then?
16:42Emma, I love you.
16:44But those kids are going to start asking questions.
16:45Noah already has.
16:46You can't run from this forever.
16:48Watch me.
16:50I'm fine.
16:51Let's go back in.
16:51So, entertainment.
16:52Emma's playing piano during the ceremony.
16:55You still play?
16:56Every day.
16:58That's great.
16:58You're always incredible.
16:59Thanks.
17:00Right, so Jake, bachelor party.
17:01When are we doing this?
17:02Two weeks before the wedding.
17:03Perfect.
17:04You're the best man.
17:04It's literally your job.
17:05Me?
17:06I'll sort something out.
17:07And we need to plan your hen night.
17:08Now we're talking.
17:09I vote spa weekend.
17:10I vote wine tasting.
17:11Why not both?
17:13Her laugh.
17:14I'd forgotten what it sounded like.
17:15No, I'd forced myself to forget.
17:18Because remembering her laugh meant remembering everything I walked away from.
17:23How did you get in here?
17:24Marcus.
17:25He said you'd be here.
17:26I'm gonna kill him.
17:27You teach here now?
17:29Music.
17:29Yes.
17:30That's perfect for you.
17:33This was Mrs. Patterson's room.
17:35It's mine now.
17:36What were you playing?
17:37Something I wrote.
17:38It was beautiful.
17:39Don't do that.
17:39Do what?
17:40Be nice.
17:41You act like we're old friends catching up.
17:43We're not.
17:44I know we're not.
17:45Emma, I know what I do.
17:46You promised you'd come back and you didn't.
17:48That's what you did.
17:49I wanted to come back every single day.
17:50You didn't.
17:51Every single day.
17:51For five years.
17:52I was scared.
17:54You were scared.
17:54I was 18, pregnant and alone.
17:56You don't get to talk to me about scared.
17:58Pregnant?
18:00Get out.
18:01Emma.
18:01Get out!
18:02Are they, are they mine?
18:04Emma, please.
18:06Are Wilson and Grace?
18:07Their names are Noah and Grace.
18:09And you don't get to ask me that.
18:11You lost that right five years ago.
18:13Please.
18:14Don't touch me.
18:18How was your day?
18:20It was good, thank you.
18:26Are they my children?
18:33Noah and Grace, are they mine?
18:39Emma.
18:40She let it slip.
18:42Jake, answer me.
18:45Yes.
18:48She found out she was pregnant after you left.
18:51She was 18.
18:52No job, no degree, all alone.
18:54She was going to put them up for adoption.
18:56I convinced her to keep them.
18:59Why did no one tell me?
19:02Because you left.
19:03You changed your number, disappeared, started a new life, and never looked back.
19:07Ryan, she raised them alone.
19:09The fevers, the sleepless nights, the first steps, the first words.
19:13She was there for all of it, alone.
19:14I have children.
19:15I'm a father.
19:16You're their biological father.
19:17A real father shows up.
19:20I want to know them.
19:21I want to be there for them.
19:23Then go earn it.
19:24Starting with Emma.
19:27I went to the school.
19:28And then Jake's.
19:29And?
19:30The twins.
19:31Noah and Grace.
19:32They're mine.
19:33I know.
19:34What?
19:35I've known since I saw that little girl through the cafe window.
19:38She has your face, Ryan.
19:39Your exact face.
19:40I was just waiting for you to tell me.
19:41Stella, I'm sorry.
19:42I didn't know-
19:43I believe you.
19:44But you know now.
19:45So what are you going to do?
19:46I want to be in their lives.
19:48And Emma?
19:48What about her?
19:50Do you still love her?
19:52I love you.
19:53That's not what I asked.
19:56I'm not going to compete with a ghost, Ryan.
19:58I've spent two years with you.
19:59I know when you're thinking about her.
20:01It's in the way you flinch at certain songs.
20:04The way you stare at nothing.
20:05The way you kissed me on our first date and whispered the wrong name.
20:09Stella!
20:09You corrected yourself so fast you thought I didn't notice.
20:12But I did.
20:13I've always noticed.
20:15That was two years ago.
20:16Things changed.
20:17Did they?
20:17Because from where I'm standing, you just found out you have two children with the love
20:21of your life, and you look more alive than I've ever seen you.
20:24I'm going to stay for the wedding.
20:26I like Jake and Lily.
20:27But you and I both know this changes everything.
20:34Mommy?
20:35Yes, sweetheart?
20:36The other kids at playgroup have daddies.
20:38Tommy's daddy picks him up every day, and Sadie's daddy coaches football.
20:42How come we don't have a daddy?
20:43Yeah, mommy.
20:44Where's our daddy?
20:45Your daddy had to go away before you were born.
20:49Why?
20:49He had a job.
20:50A very important job, and he had to go far away to do it.
20:53Does he know about us?
20:54He does now.
20:54Is he coming back?
20:55I don't know, baby.
20:56I honestly don't know.
20:57Is it the pig man?
20:58Why would you say that?
20:59He has my eyes heads, and Uncle Jake calls him his best friend like daddy was, and he
21:02caught me when I fell.
21:03Daddy's catchy when you fall.
21:05You two are too smart for your own good.
21:07Is that a yes?
21:08Yes.
21:10But listen to me.
21:11Just because someone is your daddy doesn't mean things will change right away.
21:15Okay?
21:15I need you to trust mommy.
21:16We trust you, mommy.
21:18Always.
21:19I had five years protecting them from this moment, and a four-year-old figured it out
21:23in three days.
21:26Are you following me?
21:28Jake told me you'd be here.
21:29I asked permission.
21:31Permission?
21:32That's new for you.
21:33Can we talk?
21:34I'm busy.
21:35Five minutes.
21:36Please.
21:38Go play with no one for a minute, sweetheart.
21:40Talk.
21:40I want to be in their lives.
21:41No.
21:42Emma-
21:42You don't get to show up after five years and play father.
21:44They have a life.
21:45They have stability.
21:45They have me.
21:46I know that, and I'm not trying to take anything from you.
21:49I just, I want to know them.
21:50I want them to know me.
21:51They already know about you.
21:52Grace figured it out herself.
21:53She's four, and she's smarter than both of us.
21:55She's incredible.
21:56They both are.
21:56No thanks to you.
21:57I deserve that.
21:58I deserve all of it.
21:59But I'm here now, and I'm not leaving.
22:00You said that before.
22:01I know, and I broke that promise.
22:02I'll spend the rest of my life making up for it if you let me.
22:04Here's what's going to happen.
22:05You can spend time with them, supervised.
22:07At Jake's house, with me, or someone I trust present.
22:09You don't make promises you can't keep.
22:11You don't buy their love.
22:12And if you hurt them, if you disappear again, I will make sure you never see.
22:15I understand.
22:17And Ryan, this isn't forgiveness.
22:19This is me doing what's right for my children.
22:21Thank you, Emma.
22:22I won't waste this.
22:35Mr. Piggy.
22:36Grace, don't call him that.
22:38His name is Ryan.
22:40Can I secretly call him Mr. Piggy?
22:43Whatever you want.
22:44Noah.
22:45Noah, this is Ryan.
22:47He's Uncle Jack's friend.
22:48He wants to play with you today.
22:50Mommy will stay with you, okay?
22:54Do you play soccer?
22:57I used to be on my school's soccer team.
23:01Really?
23:02Of course.
23:03Want me to teach you a few moves?
23:10Okay.
23:15Noah, kick it hard.
23:17No, the other way.
23:20He's good with kids.
23:22It's only been one afternoon.
23:27He looks like a father.
23:29He is a father.
23:30He just never understood it before.
23:35Ryan, will you come back tomorrow?
23:39If your mom says yes...
23:45We'll see.
24:01We'll see.
24:06promise me something anything at all when you make it big and you will
