00:00:07Is that Alex? Dang. No wonder he's the top most bangable enlisted three years running. He's so fine.
00:00:15Yeah, rich daddy on the school board, isn't it?
00:00:18Today's a student president election? No chance anyone's beating him.
00:00:23So, who's this new guy I'm up against? Any dirt?
00:00:27Xavier, scholarship kid, geeky. Still fit though. Number two on the bangable list, so right behind you. Bit of a
00:00:36loner?
00:00:37Never heard of him.
00:00:38I told you, don't come home without the cash.
00:00:44Hey, this is St. Mountain High, not a freaking pub.
00:00:51Fine, but you won't outrun this.
00:00:56You okay?
00:01:02Yeah, I'm fine.
00:01:06Not even a thank you?
00:01:09At least tell me your name.
00:01:11It's not important.
00:01:12I'll never look away.
00:01:18That is Xavier Miller.
00:01:21Alright, Xavier.
00:01:23I'll see you at the debate.
00:01:31Alright, let's begin.
00:01:32The football kit budget was inflated two hundred and thirty percent.
00:01:37Money that could have paid for students transport who were working late.
00:01:44Are you accusing my father of corruption?
00:01:46Just stating the facts.
00:01:48Uh, we're gonna take a quick five minute recess.
00:01:54Here's another fact, genius.
00:01:56That extra money was used to help donate to underprivileged kids for new equipment.
00:02:00So, do you see now that you made me look like a fool for absolutely no reason?
00:02:12I truly do not think so.
00:02:29It's your fault.
00:02:30We'll see you soon.
00:02:30After a month or 2, we'll see you soon.
00:02:31I'm sorry.
00:02:32If you did a mess with me, you knew the same way.
00:02:34We're joking.
00:02:34It's my family that we're talking.
00:02:34I'm next to you.
00:02:49What the actual fuck?
00:02:56That was unexpected.
00:02:58Did Alex just kiss that dude?
00:03:01I thought he got a gaze.
00:03:03Hey, you good?
00:03:06I want everything on him.
00:03:08And I mean everything.
00:03:11Yeah.
00:03:23I just sold the damn house.
00:03:29What?
00:03:31You had no right.
00:03:32That's all Mom left us.
00:03:34Where will we live now?
00:03:35You want to see your old man get beaten to death by lung sharks?
00:03:42I need the money.
00:03:44How about quitting the booze and gambling instead of wrecking our lives?
00:03:578 o'clock tonight's school cafe.
00:04:00Got a proposal that could fix your money issues.
00:04:06I hear you laughing.
00:04:12And I see you smile.
00:04:17You know that you're my everything.
00:04:25When I got your love.
00:04:25Whatever this is, make it quick.
00:04:27When I got your love.
00:04:29I want you to be my boyfriend.
00:04:33When I got your love.
00:04:36When I got your love.
00:04:42I want you to be my boyfriend.
00:04:46I'll call it.
00:04:48A contract?
00:04:50Are you seriously trying to hire me as your fake boyfriend?
00:04:54Real romantic, Watson.
00:04:56Call it a mutually beneficial arrangement.
00:05:01You see, you clearly need money, and I need to fix my reputation.
00:05:08Well, dating the School of Scholarship Golden Boy is exactly the image boost I need right now.
00:05:13You investigated me?
00:05:15It's more like damage control.
00:05:18You see, you made me look like a fool in front of the entire school, so now you gotta fix
00:05:23it.
00:05:23If it weren't for the homophobia rumors, tanking your poll numbers, would you still want to date a guy?
00:05:31Hell no. No, no, no. You see, this is just... business.
00:05:39Duration?
00:05:40Tell the election's over.
00:05:47Keep it professional, Watson. Don't get any ideas.
00:06:00Don't you worry. Feelings aren't on the menu.
00:06:05You look in my eyes, and I already hope this lasts.
00:06:12Trying hard not to jump, not to move too fast.
00:06:21Let the games begin, boyfriend.
00:06:28Let the games begin, boyfriend.
00:06:34No one's watching us. You can drop the act now.
00:06:37You should probably tell your heart rate that.
00:06:39Jumping like crazy in there.
00:06:41Whatever. I'm leaving.
00:06:43Hey, did I say you could leave?
00:06:46We have a frat party to hit.
00:06:48It's time to show off St. Mountain's new favorite couple.
00:06:58Is this part of the PR stunt too?
00:07:01Obviously, one accidental kiss is not going to sell this relationship.
00:07:04How is it?
00:07:05Let's make it believable.
00:07:06Hey, look out!
00:07:07It's our star quarterback and his cute nerdy boyfriend!
00:07:13Watson, you're late. You know what that means, right?
00:07:15Penalty round.
00:07:18Let's go!
00:07:20Alright boys, rules are simple.
00:07:22Ice Cube goes mouth to mouth.
00:07:24No hands allowed, no dropping.
00:07:32Do we really have to do this?
00:07:34Are you scared?
00:07:42Technically, this is not sanitary.
00:07:58No, God, no plans tonight.
00:08:01Plans tonight.
00:08:04And it ain't too hard to notice.
00:08:18Yo, what?
00:08:19That wasn't passing.
00:08:21That was straight up to beating us.
00:08:26Look at Xavier. He's turning it into a tomato.
00:08:31What the hell is wrong with you?
00:08:33We need people to buy this, right?
00:08:41What's that?
00:08:43Extra credit homework?
00:08:45Our campaign team thinks we're lacking couples' chemistry.
00:08:48Voters aren't convinced.
00:08:52Well...
00:08:53Pro tip, genius.
00:08:55Kissing with your eyes open is a dead giveaway.
00:09:09You just ruined our chemistry reference.
00:09:12Voters want sparks, not stats.
00:09:15And, uh, Mark set up that whole live stream thing,
00:09:18so I think it's time to show the world just how in love we are.
00:09:21You didn't think to ask me first?
00:09:25The contract clearly states you do what I say.
00:09:29Oh, why don't you guys get the load of this?
00:09:31A robot boyfriend here is glitching again.
00:09:34What?
00:09:37Hey, this got you so worked up, huh?
00:09:39Huh?
00:09:42You need a shower?
00:09:45Fine.
00:09:46But you're joining me,
00:09:47and Mark's gonna live stream the whole thing.
00:09:50It's time to showcase those acting chops.
00:10:08You might grab me a towel?
00:10:10You didn't think to get one before the strip show?
00:10:13I could walk out naked if you'd like.
00:10:26What?
00:10:28Why so shy all of a sudden?
00:10:30You can have a quick look if you want.
00:10:32Maybe, uh...
00:10:34A little touch?
00:10:36I'm not gonna stop you.
00:10:58By popular demand, you ask, and we answer.
00:11:01Question number one.
00:11:03What was your first impression of each other?
00:11:05He's loud.
00:11:06Seriously.
00:11:07Well, my first impression of him was...
00:11:10Who is this mysterious nerd calling me out in front of everybody?
00:11:15It was harsh, I gotta admit, but...
00:11:18Boy, was it cute.
00:11:19Still loud.
00:11:22Question number two.
00:11:23What's your favorite thing about each other?
00:11:27Um, I don't know.
00:11:28A sense of responsibility, maybe?
00:11:31Thanks.
00:11:31Well, my favorite thing about him will have to be his fingers.
00:11:36Excuse me?
00:11:38Long.
00:11:40Elegant.
00:11:41Very skillful.
00:11:43Alright, next question.
00:11:44Next question is...
00:11:45Who is your most unforgettable kiss?
00:12:06Guys.
00:12:07Major problem.
00:12:09Someone leaked the contract?
00:12:10Everyone knows you're faking right now.
00:12:16Oh, my God.
00:12:17Did y'all see this?
00:12:18This had a freaking contract?
00:12:20Yes.
00:12:21I thought they were gold.
00:12:23What a scam!
00:12:23No!
00:12:24I didn't know it.
00:12:28The final debate is in three days.
00:12:30If we don't turn this around fast, you're finished.
00:12:32And I know, Mark!
00:12:33I already got people tracing the hack.
00:12:35Whoever fucking leaked this file is a dead man.
00:12:38Oh, God.
00:12:42Okay, so...
00:12:42What are our options, huh?
00:12:45Everyone's seen the contract by now.
00:12:46There's no denying it.
00:12:51Unless...
00:12:51Unless...
00:12:52What?
00:12:58Unless we make it real.
00:13:05Unless we make it real.
00:13:08Xavier, I...
00:13:10I don't care if the contract was fake.
00:13:12All I know is at some point it stopped being pretend to me.
00:13:15I couldn't stand you at first.
00:13:18Typical quarterback.
00:13:19Arrogant.
00:13:20Fully yourself.
00:13:22But then I saw you.
00:13:23After practice.
00:13:25Pushing yourself harder than everyone else.
00:13:27And I noticed how you always take the fall for your teammates.
00:13:30And the way you'd look at me.
00:13:32In class.
00:13:34Xavier, I...
00:13:35Do you honestly think I've been faking this whole time?
00:13:52The hacker broke into your laptop.
00:13:54The whole school is watching this feed right now.
00:14:03The hacker broke into your laptop.
00:14:06The whole school is watching this feed right now.
00:14:11The hacker broke into your laptop.
00:14:12The hacker broke into your laptop.
00:14:13I can fake confidence during debates.
00:14:20Smile through press conferences.
00:14:22Even pretend I care about school traditions that I don't even like.
00:14:24Like, there's no way I could fake this.
00:14:27And yeah, maybe it started as a deal, but now...
00:14:33Everything I said was true.
00:14:42Cut!
00:14:46That was perfect.
00:14:48At least the votes won't go down now.
00:14:51I've done my bit.
00:14:54Hi.
00:14:59Just doing what we agreed.
00:15:02But seeing you hurt is never part of the deal.
00:15:09I owe you, Xavier.
00:15:12And listen, whatever happens with the election, I just...
00:15:16It's nothing.
00:15:17Just sticking to the script, right?
00:15:20You sure that's all it is?
00:15:23You sure there's no hidden feelings creeping up?
00:15:27God, you never stop, did you?
00:15:30Dead end on the hacker.
00:15:32Whoever it was was bouncing off multiple VPNs.
00:15:35Great.
00:15:36So we're dealing with a pro.
00:15:39Listen, everybody is going to be watching your every move.
00:15:42Okay?
00:15:43Every look, every moment...
00:15:44Has to be authentic.
00:15:47We got this.
00:15:49Right?
00:15:55Oh, shit.
00:15:57Left my football gear at home.
00:15:59That school paper shoots tomorrow.
00:16:02Want to come with?
00:16:04Sure.
00:16:04Because I've got nothing else to do.
00:16:07Come on.
00:16:12Okay.
00:16:13Something is definitely going on between those two.
00:16:25What?
00:16:26This is your average family home?
00:16:28It's my father's place.
00:16:30Not mine.
00:16:31Meaning?
00:16:32Meaning I have an older half-brother and a dad who's super big on competition.
00:16:37So, if I want any part of this family fortune, then I have to beat them.
00:16:45Winning that election...
00:16:48It's the first step.
00:16:50Keep your family drama to yourself.
00:16:52I'm not your therapist.
00:16:55You serious?
00:16:56I thought you were the one who wanted to make this look believable.
00:16:59Fine.
00:17:01I'll keep your sad rich boy drama in mind.
00:17:03Shut up.
00:17:04Come on.
00:17:08All right.
00:17:08Well, I need to go grab my jersey, but why don't you read a book or something?
00:17:23Well, well.
00:17:24I didn't expect to see you here.
00:17:27Sorry, do I know you?
00:17:32You must be Xavier, the famous boyfriend.
00:17:36And you are?
00:17:39I'm Noah.
00:17:40Alex's older brother.
00:17:44Ouch.
00:17:45Cold reception.
00:17:48So, has Alex's fiancรฉ met you yet?
00:17:52Fiancรฉ?
00:17:53Oh.
00:17:54Did he leave out that little detail?
00:17:58This whole fake boyfriend thing.
00:18:00He's done it before.
00:18:02Left quite the trail of broken hearts.
00:18:04What are you implying?
00:18:07Alex doesn't date guys.
00:18:10You'll only get yourself hurt.
00:18:12You deserve to be with someone better.
00:18:15Someone like me.
00:18:17Are you insane?
00:18:18I'm just gay.
00:18:20An observant.
00:18:23Let's not pretend that you're straight to now, sweetheart.
00:18:31Get off.
00:18:32I'm not.
00:18:33Then why are you shaking?
00:18:34You're seriously messed up.
00:18:36Takes one to know one.
00:18:38You can't lie to yourself forever.
00:18:41Alex can offer you fame, money, all the shiny things in life.
00:18:46But I can offer you something he never could.
00:18:49Something real.
00:18:51Get off.
00:18:53What the fuck are you doing?
00:18:55Excellent timing, little brother.
00:18:59You stay the hell away from me.
00:19:02You hear me?
00:19:07Relax, babe.
00:19:09It's just some friendly competition.
00:19:13I'll be seeing you real soon.
00:19:15I can feel it.
00:19:19Asshole.
00:19:19Hey.
00:19:20It's okay.
00:19:24Look.
00:19:25Don't believe a word he says.
00:19:27Noah thrives on chaos.
00:19:30Including the part about your fiancee?
00:19:33Look, that's just an arranged thing.
00:19:36Okay?
00:19:36My dad's idea.
00:19:37I honestly don't even know her.
00:19:39You don't owe me an explanation, Alex.
00:19:42I'm just a part of your PR stunt, right?
00:19:46Is that really all this is to him?
00:19:49Right.
00:19:51Yeah, you're absolutely right.
00:19:54I'm heading back.
00:19:56No.
00:19:58Why don't you just stay here?
00:20:00The guest room's open.
00:20:01I don't usually stay the night.
00:20:04All right.
00:20:05All right.
00:20:05Then, uh, let me drive you.
00:20:12Hello.
00:20:13Congrats, kid.
00:20:14You're officially homeless.
00:20:17Don't bother coming back.
00:20:18You're on your own now.
00:20:23I guess I might take you up on that offer.
00:20:26Best decision you're gonna make tonight.
00:20:28Now, let me show you to your room.
00:20:31Or mine if you prefer.
00:20:40You know, I, uh, always dreamt of going pro in the NFL.
00:20:46I'm not surprised.
00:20:47You're football crazy.
00:20:49Yeah.
00:20:51I was a quarterback.
00:20:53Even one state.
00:20:55My dad, he had other plans for me.
00:21:00Said he wouldn't have a Watson waste his future throwing a ball around.
00:21:05Yeah.
00:21:08So, I became the perfect son.
00:21:12Got straight A's.
00:21:14Student body president.
00:21:16Anything in hopes that he let me play football again.
00:21:24Now your turn.
00:21:26Secret for secret.
00:21:28You've already seen enough.
00:21:30My father's a gambler.
00:21:32Family's a mess.
00:21:34There's nothing left to tell.
00:21:36See, I don't buy it.
00:21:38I think you have a bigger secret to tell,
00:21:40but you're just too scared to say it out loud.
00:21:49Tell me.
00:21:51It'll be our little secret.
00:22:05I want to be the only one you tell.
00:22:07Let's not pretend that you're straight two now, sweetheart.
00:22:10You're wasted.
00:22:11Sleep it off.
00:22:13I'm taking a shower.
00:22:25I don't pay you for a cuddler.
00:22:34I don't pay you for a cuddler.
00:22:41I don't pay you for a cuddler.
00:22:42The real secret is,
00:22:44I fell for someone I wasn't supposed to.
00:22:52Alex.
00:22:54Don't leave.
00:22:55You really shouldn't.
00:22:58Stay.
00:23:00Please.
00:23:01Please.
00:23:15I know your little secret.
00:23:20What secret?
00:23:23It's about me.
00:23:25Isn't it?
00:23:36Alex.
00:23:38Tell me.
00:23:41Everything.
00:23:53It was just a dream.
00:24:02Don't go.
00:24:04Alex, let go.
00:24:05Stay.
00:24:22Alex?
00:24:37Since when did you become Mr. Homemaker?
00:24:39I'd impress you somehow, right?
00:24:42What better way to do that than a nice breakfast?
00:25:08So check it out.
00:25:10Chef Alex's world-famous grilled cheese.
00:25:13Michelin star pending.
00:25:15Did it survive a crime scene?
00:25:17Hey, hey, hey.
00:25:18I'll have you know that I ate sandwich making at summer camp, okay?
00:25:29Okay.
00:25:30Fine.
00:25:31Tastes a lot better than it looks.
00:25:33There we go.
00:25:34So, am I boyfriend material or what?
00:25:46Alex doesn't date guys.
00:25:49You okay?
00:25:50Drop the act, Alex.
00:25:52There's no one even around to impress.
00:25:54What's that supposed to mean?
00:26:00Forget it.
00:26:01I'm heading to the library.
00:26:04Xavier, wait, you barely touched your grilled cheese!
00:26:13Come on.
00:26:15Damn it!
00:26:25Oh, you're John's kid, right?
00:26:28Your dad owes me a lot of money.
00:26:31He sold the house.
00:26:32The debt should be cleared.
00:26:35But he didn't pay me a single cent.
00:26:37Shit!
00:26:38How deep is this old bastard anyway?
00:26:41You're his kid.
00:26:42So either you settled his debt,
00:26:44or I start taking pieces.
00:26:46It's between you and him.
00:26:48Please, just leave me out of it.
00:26:57Nah.
00:26:58You're definitely involved in it now.
00:27:18Back off, asshole.
00:27:21Who the fuck?
00:27:39You touch him again, you're dead.
00:27:45Two grand, two days.
00:27:49Where old man's missing a kidney.
00:27:58Alex!
00:28:01You okay?
00:28:02No.
00:28:03Are you?
00:28:05Look at your face.
00:28:09You idiot!
00:28:10Why would you do that?
00:28:12Alright, maybe I went a little bit overboard.
00:28:18We need to go to the hospital.
00:28:23You've got an old injury,
00:28:25and now you've seriously torn the ligaments.
00:28:27You're out for the rest of the season.
00:28:29If you push it, you might never step on the field again.
00:28:37I've ruined your entire future.
00:28:39Your entire dream.
00:28:43I hope all is my dream.
00:28:45You're what I really want.
00:28:47You are insane.
00:28:52Well, since this is technically your fault, you definitely owe me.
00:28:56Then what exactly do you want?
00:28:59Move in with me.
00:29:01Be my personal nurse.
00:29:07Fine.
00:29:09I guess it's the least I can do.
00:29:14Now feed me.
00:29:16Absolutely not.
00:29:17I'm not.
00:29:21Oh.
00:29:22Alright.
00:29:24Just one bite.
00:29:28And here begins your life as my caretaker.
00:29:47Ah!
00:29:48You bite now?
00:29:50You started it.
00:29:51Maybe I'll have to finish it.
00:29:53Won't I?
00:29:57Ahem.
00:29:59Remember?
00:30:00No strenuous activity.
00:30:02Especially involving your arm.
00:30:04Well, what if Xavier's on top?
00:30:08Kids these days.
00:30:11You are impossible.
00:30:13It's a love story, babe.
00:30:15I'm just staying in character.
00:30:20Fine.
00:30:21Fine.
00:30:21If that's what it takes.
00:30:24Welcome home, babe.
00:30:31Ow!
00:30:32Look, I have one arm.
00:30:34The floors are all wet.
00:30:35This is a potential drowning hazard.
00:30:37Can I get a little help?
00:30:39Nice try.
00:30:41You'll manage.
00:30:49Xavier!
00:30:50Help!
00:30:50I slipped!
00:30:54You are unbelievable.
00:30:57Unbelievably sexy, maybe.
00:31:08Stop it.
00:31:10Put your clothes on.
00:31:12Are you blushing?
00:31:13I am not.
00:31:15Sure.
00:31:20Uh...
00:31:22Hold this.
00:31:23Now hold that.
00:31:25And if it drops, then...
00:31:27That must mean you want me.
00:31:29You're insane.
00:31:30Maybe.
00:31:42You can start here.
00:31:47Whoa.
00:31:49Careful.
00:31:51My skin's more sensitive than my reputation.
00:31:56Shut up.
00:32:15My skin's more sensitive than my head, but...
00:32:16I will not get past the funcioners.
00:32:16I am not lying to you...
00:32:17My beard is behind the ground.
00:32:21I am alone from Hannah.
00:32:23I am alone from my head.
00:32:24I am alone from my head.
00:32:25I am always able to save my imagination.
00:32:26I am always able to save my head in my head.
00:32:27I am always willing to save the money.
00:32:27I am happy to save my head.
00:32:27I am only a little bit.
00:32:28I am getting mad at my head.
00:32:42Bath time is couple time, right?
00:32:44Do you think this is funny?
00:32:45Just lighten up.
00:32:46I'm just joking.
00:32:48Am I just a punchline to you?
00:32:51A prop for your campaign?
00:32:52I stuck around because I cared about it.
00:32:55And this is how you treat me?
00:33:06Did I overreact?
00:33:13I'm sorry.
00:33:17Okay, but...
00:33:20What if I actually fell in love with you?
00:33:39I thought that I hated you, but it turns out I just hated how much I wanted you.
00:33:49Let the games begin, boyfriend.
00:33:55No one's watching us.
00:33:56You can drop the act now.
00:34:01At first, I just wanted the rumors to stop.
00:34:05And signing that contract felt like my only choice.
00:34:13Unless we make it real.
00:34:18And then when everything fell apart, I was losing the election.
00:34:26You stepped in.
00:34:31You saved me.
00:34:34And you didn't have to.
00:34:37Get off.
00:34:39What the fuck are you doing?
00:34:43When I saw him that close to you...
00:34:48It hurt more than losing the election ever could.
00:34:57So...
00:34:59Would you consider making this real with me?
00:35:11I forget what I said earlier.
00:35:13I just...
00:35:22Are you sure?
00:35:24Are you sure?
00:35:39You're driving me crazy.
00:35:41It's not pretending like it isn't happening.
00:35:44I'm out.
00:35:46I'm out.
00:35:49I'm out.
00:35:51Okay.
00:35:56I'm out.
00:35:58I'm out.
00:36:37Good morning, sleeping beauty.
00:36:41Did I catch you stealing kisses again?
00:36:44You know that's a serious crime, right?
00:36:47Guess you'll have to arrest me, officer.
00:36:54You are way too addictive.
00:36:58I might need rehab.
00:37:00Sorry, no can do.
00:37:03You've got a campaign to salvage.
00:37:05Interviews lined up.
00:37:07And you're currently wearing exactly zero clothes.
00:37:15Sounds like you prefer me fully dressed.
00:37:19Disappointing.
00:37:19Disappointing.
00:37:20I prefer you elected, actually.
00:37:37Dude, your poll numbers shot up after that speech.
00:37:40Look at this.
00:37:41You're like a senior year Tom Holland.
00:37:44Charismatic, relatable, and still sexy enough for thirst edits.
00:37:48So, you're saying my chances are good again?
00:37:51Dude, you're literally back to number one.
00:37:53Look at this.
00:37:54And all positive comments, too.
00:37:57But seriously, how did you pull this off?
00:37:59Xavier was against this whole thing from the start.
00:38:02Now he's editing your speeches and organizing your life.
00:38:05Maybe it's because we're actually together now.
00:38:08Right.
00:38:09I was going to say he's acting more like your mom.
00:38:11But, yeah.
00:38:12Whatever works.
00:38:14Man, what kind of witchcraft did you have to pull to get Sheldon Cooper to big date you?
00:38:24I didn't lose anything.
00:38:26I literally just fell for him.
00:38:34I caught feelings for him.
00:38:36That's all it is.
00:38:38Wow.
00:38:38So, you and him started fake and then it got real.
00:38:45Dude, he's Xavier Miller.
00:38:48He's like an AI bot with a built-in firewall.
00:38:50Totally unreadable.
00:38:52Nah, it's just surface code.
00:38:54He's got to dig a little deeper.
00:38:58Listen, man.
00:38:58All I'm saying is it makes a lot more sense for him to be using you for something.
00:39:05Using me for what, exactly?
00:39:07Don't forget.
00:39:09He was your biggest competition.
00:39:11Okay, what if this is a long con and he's going to flip on you at the end?
00:39:14Look, nobody's that good at faking it.
00:39:17I trust him.
00:39:23I'm going to need you.
00:39:27Hey, babe.
00:39:28We were just talking about you.
00:39:35Oh, God.
00:39:37Is it actually real?
00:39:48Are you job hunting?
00:39:50See, I said you didn't have to pay me back.
00:39:53I thought I made that clear.
00:39:55I know you don't have to think about this kind of stuff, but I do.
00:39:58I'm just planning ahead, figuring things out for myself.
00:40:06Well, the only thing we have to figure out right now
00:40:08is how to get some sleep.
00:40:24Seriously, can you ever just sleep like a normal person?
00:40:27Normal's boring.
00:40:29And I'm one of a kind.
00:40:31You're crushing me, move.
00:40:34Make me.
00:40:37Hey!
00:40:37Stop.
00:40:41Stop.
00:40:44Ah, fine.
00:40:56Hey, I just wrapped up a practice.
00:40:58Thought I could swing by and pick you up.
00:41:00Could ride home together.
00:41:01Swing by?
00:41:03You're half the city away.
00:41:05Okay, fine.
00:41:06You got me.
00:41:07Maybe I miss you.
00:41:08And also, I'm starving, and only your pasta's gonna hit the spot.
00:41:13I'm actually tempted to clock out right now.
00:41:17Oh, customer.
00:41:19See you tonight.
00:41:23Welcome.
00:41:23What can I get you?
00:41:24Black coffee, no sugar, and a little bit of you.
00:41:30What are you doing here?
00:41:31I just had some business, but I couldn't help but drop in.
00:41:35Black coffee, no sugar coming up.
00:41:41Oh, and by the way, did you hear the news?
00:41:45Alex is planning on dumping your ass.
00:41:47Excuse me?
00:41:48Daddy's had it all arranged.
00:41:50Alex's fiance flies in next week, and apparently he needs you out of the picture.
00:42:01Enjoy.
00:42:09Call me anytime, sexy.
00:42:24Just who we need it right now.
00:42:29Hey, I just saw Noah leaving.
00:42:31I mean, is he bothering you again?
00:42:33Same old.
00:42:34Just stirring the pot.
00:42:36Though he did mention your fiance's flying in next week.
00:42:40Oh.
00:42:42So it's true.
00:42:44I was gonna tell you once things were sorted, but I just didn't want to stress you out,
00:42:48you know?
00:42:49Oh, cool.
00:42:50So I'm just some fragile thing you need to protect?
00:42:53No, I barely even know her.
00:42:54She's just some random girl my dad set me up with.
00:42:57Then why hide it?
00:42:58What's the point?
00:42:59What's the point?
00:43:04I was scared of losing you.
00:43:11Let's get out of here.
00:43:14So we're okay?
00:43:15No.
00:43:16But we still have roles to play.
00:43:21And right now, I need to get my boyfriend costume.
00:43:28You park the car.
00:43:30I'll go in first.
00:43:31Oh, wait, wait, wait.
00:43:32Where's my goodbye kiss?
00:43:44I have an appointment.
00:43:46A friend booked it for me.
00:43:48Appointments have to be confirmed by the client directly.
00:43:51And no offense, but you don't exactly fit our typical clientele.
00:44:03Miss Brown, delightful to see you today.
00:44:06How can I help you?
00:44:07You're Alex's friend, right?
00:44:10Yeah.
00:44:15Serpent.
00:44:16But he doesn't over...
00:44:17Do you want to lose your job?
00:44:19Sorry, sir.
00:44:21Thanks.
00:44:23You wouldn't happen to be a friend of Alex's, too?
00:44:33He wouldn't be thanking me if he knew.
00:44:35I was Alex's fiancรฉ.
00:44:38Something like that.
00:44:40I'm Laura.
00:44:41I'll see you.
00:44:53Mr. Watson, pleasure to see you.
00:44:56Can I interest you in our latest collection?
00:44:58Well, actually, I'm shopping for my boyfriend here.
00:45:01Do you really have to announce it to everyone?
00:45:04I can tweet it out if you'd like.
00:45:08Absolutely delighted to assist you both today.
00:45:11This way, please.
00:45:15Now, the first step to looking like you have your shit together?
00:45:19A suit that actually fits.
00:45:23And this one, it fits you perfectly.
00:45:27Go on.
00:45:28Try it on.
00:45:29Why do I need a suit when you're the one running for student body president?
00:45:33You see, we both are.
00:45:45Savile row cut.
00:45:48Loss.
00:45:49And now, the perfect pair of kicks to tie it all together.
00:46:07You don't have to do this, but I want to.
00:46:11Because you're worth it.
00:46:18Alright.
00:46:20Looking good.
00:46:22Does need a touch more tailoring, though.
00:46:30Let's get this jacket off.
00:46:32Hey, wait.
00:46:33What are you doing?
00:46:34Relax.
00:46:35Okay, I'm not going to bite.
00:46:37Unless you want me to.
00:46:40I'm just measuring.
00:46:56Wow.
00:46:5728-inch waist, huh?
00:47:00Looks like someone needs some carbs in their life.
00:47:04Hey.
00:47:06I'm still mad at you.
00:47:10Maybe I'll just have to kiss you until you forgive me.
00:47:18Mr. Watson.
00:47:19Your suit.
00:47:20It's ready.
00:47:22Yeah, just, uh, leave it outside.
00:47:31Hey.
00:47:32Don't we clean up nice, huh?
00:47:37This is my?
00:47:40Okay.
00:48:03Hey Mark, what's up?
00:48:05Emergency, get to the school right now.
00:48:07Things just blew up.
00:48:15Finally, come here.
00:48:19Did someone leak the contract again or something?
00:48:21No, worse.
00:48:23We have a new opponent and she's rising fast.
00:48:26We have to do something.
00:48:28Wait, wait, wait.
00:48:29She?
00:48:30Yeah.
00:48:31Laura Brown.
00:48:32You know, the daughter of crime family billionaire Walter Brown.
00:48:37Laura.
00:48:41You know Laura too?
00:48:42At the tailor shop.
00:48:43She acted like she knew you.
00:48:45She does.
00:48:46She's my fiance.
00:48:50Fiance?
00:48:51When the hell were you going to tell us about that?
00:48:53It was just an arranged thing from my dad.
00:48:56I honestly barely know her.
00:49:00Okay, well, she knows plenty about you two.
00:49:02She's charming the hell out of everyone.
00:49:04Your numbers are dropping.
00:49:06Fast.
00:49:07I mean, this can't just be a coincidence.
00:49:10Exactly.
00:49:11She's here for a reason and it's not to win some election.
00:49:17This just became personal.
00:49:22If people find out about this engagement, it's game over.
00:49:25She'll win by a mile.
00:49:27Unless we find a crack in her game.
00:49:28There's no time.
00:49:31I can handle her.
00:49:34Sounds exciting.
00:49:38Why are you doing this?
00:49:40Maybe it's because you have a secret boyfriend?
00:49:43As far as I'm concerned, our parents set us up on one date.
00:49:47Nothing more.
00:49:49You sure you don't want to give me another shot?
00:49:50I'm way more interesting than him.
00:49:53If you want a fair fight, then fine.
00:49:57But play dirty again.
00:49:59I won't be so polite.
00:50:03Big words.
00:50:04We'll see how long that confidence lasts.
00:50:13Get out.
00:50:14You're not welcome here.
00:50:15Relax.
00:50:16I'm just here to chat.
00:50:17You said you want to get into Princeton, right?
00:50:19Lifelong dream.
00:50:21Well, this is signed by the vice president.
00:50:23Guaranteed entry.
00:50:26Are you bribing me?
00:50:29I figured you'd say that.
00:50:30But my father doesn't take no well.
00:50:32And your dad, poor John,
00:50:35he owes a lot of people money.
00:50:38People who don't take kindly to being ignored.
00:50:40Keep my father out of this.
00:50:42Then don't force me to call in favors.
00:50:45Relax.
00:50:46I'm not stealing your boyfriend.
00:50:48I'm just showing you a better future.
00:50:51Love is overrated anyway.
00:50:53Maybe to you.
00:50:55And for Alex, too.
00:50:57Oh, has he wished you a happy birthday yet?
00:51:07Need a ride?
00:51:09Just cost you a water bottle out the trunk.
00:51:12He doesn't even know it's my birthday.
00:51:14Fine.
00:51:26Happy birthday, babe.
00:51:34You can finally type the letter M without your laptop imploding.
00:51:38Thank you, Alex.
00:51:43Hop in.
00:51:45Something else I want to show you.
00:51:57This is nice.
00:52:01Yes, it is.
00:52:04And I know you're not too big on surprises,
00:52:06but I just couldn't resist.
00:52:09I don't mind them, if they're from you.
00:52:14And listen, I'm not really a romantic.
00:52:17You know, I'm not going to be outside your window with a violin and flowers or writing you poetry.
00:52:23You bought me a laptop?
00:52:25Pretty romantic.
00:52:26And practical.
00:52:27Okay, look, the point is,
00:52:31whatever this is,
00:52:32I mean,
00:52:34us,
00:52:35all in.
00:52:36For real.
00:52:38I don't need violin serenades or poetry.
00:52:44I just need you.
00:52:56Well, you got me.
00:53:15Let's go back to yours.
00:53:18Let's go.
00:53:26What would you do if I got up and left right now?
00:53:29I'd probably cry like an idiot.
00:53:31Don't even think about it.
00:53:50You know,
00:53:50that thing was supposed to help you ace exams,
00:53:53not interrupt morning cuddles.
00:53:55I tracked the truth under account that leaked our contract.
00:53:58Someone local.
00:54:00Then it must be someone at school,
00:54:02right?
00:54:03Did you find anything else?
00:54:06They accidentally switched their webcam on.
00:54:09Laura.
00:54:16She's breaking all sorts of privacy laws.
00:54:18We should expose her.
00:54:19But if we do that,
00:54:20then she'll twist it,
00:54:21make us look like bullies.
00:54:22What else can we do?
00:54:23If people find out about our engagement,
00:54:25then they're going to take her side.
00:54:27I mean, it is true,
00:54:28I'm engaged.
00:54:29Then what?
00:54:31I might have something.
00:54:32Why don't we try making some viral couples TikToks?
00:54:36You know,
00:54:37wholesome stuff,
00:54:38charity angle.
00:54:39Tends to work.
00:54:42Fine.
00:54:43Let's do it.
00:54:56You did that on purpose.
00:54:58You bet I did.
00:55:15Cut.
00:55:17Cut.
00:55:17That's perfect.
00:55:20Next up, book donations for underprivileged kids.
00:55:23I'm here with viral campus couple Xavier Miller and Alex Watson.
00:55:29Welcome.
00:55:29Hey, everyone.
00:55:30Happy to be here.
00:55:32Let's see.
00:55:32First question blowing up the chat.
00:55:34What made you guys pick this project?
00:55:36Growing up,
00:55:37books were my only escape.
00:55:38Reading helped me get through some tough times.
00:55:40It's important for me to pass that on.
00:55:42Yeah,
00:55:43it's like the one thing we never fight about either.
00:55:46Hey,
00:55:47I'm Alex's friend.
00:55:50Quick question from the comments.
00:55:51Since you both are queer,
00:55:53thoughts on gay guys marrying girls?
00:55:55Is it just doing what you gotta do,
00:55:57or is there more to it?
00:56:03Guys,
00:56:04if someone has a secret boyfriend and a fiancรฉ at the same time,
00:56:08who's the real side piece?
00:56:12That's a good question.
00:56:14You know,
00:56:15maybe there's more to that than people think.
00:56:21What's worse?
00:56:22Someone keeping secrets,
00:56:24or someone leaking it anonymously?
00:56:27Touchรฉ.
00:56:28Okay.
00:56:28All right,
00:56:29guys,
00:56:29back on track.
00:56:30Um,
00:56:31Xavier,
00:56:31did you have a favorite book as a kid?
00:56:34Ta-ta.
00:56:35Uh,
00:56:36The Hobbit.
00:56:37I always wanted my own little cozy hobbit hole.
00:56:41What the hell is wrong with you?
00:56:45Are you trying to ruin my...
00:56:47Are you trying to ruin my...
00:56:57Are you out of your mind?
00:56:59I'm your fiancรฉ.
00:57:01It's just one little kiss.
00:57:02What's the big deal?
00:57:03Oh,
00:57:03come on,
00:57:04Laura.
00:57:04You and I both know that engagement would never happen.
00:57:07Using a fake relationship just to win votes?
00:57:10That's pathetic,
00:57:11even for you.
00:57:12Xavier and I don't need your approval.
00:57:14And if you threaten him one more time behind my back,
00:57:16it won't end well.
00:57:18Oh,
00:57:19you found out?
00:57:19Good.
00:57:21Maybe I'll keep a better eye on him the next time.
00:57:23Things might get uglier.
00:57:24What do you want from me?
00:57:29Everything I'm entitled to.
00:57:34Xavier,
00:57:35get to the shop right now.
00:57:40Why?
00:57:41What's wrong?
00:57:45Fuck my life,
00:57:46man.
00:57:46Fuck my life,
00:57:52what are you looking at?
00:57:54Get out of here.
00:57:55Hey,
00:57:56you got to go,
00:57:57man.
00:57:57No,
00:57:58I don't.
00:57:58No,
00:57:59you have to leave.
00:58:00Call my son.
00:58:01Call my son.
00:58:02Oh,
00:58:02man.
00:58:02He's going to shatter all the windows if you didn't show.
00:58:05It's right.
00:58:05All the customers away.
00:58:07I'm so sorry.
00:58:08I can handle it.
00:58:08If you just give me a minute.
00:58:10Man, I can't keep dealing with this.
00:58:11Next time this happens,
00:58:13you're fired.
00:58:16What do you want?
00:58:18Call your rich boyfriend.
00:58:20What's his name?
00:58:22Alex?
00:58:23Tell him to pay up.
00:58:25Daddy needs a bailout.
00:58:27You sold the house mom left us.
00:58:30You abandoned me.
00:58:31And now you want a bailout?
00:58:33You filthy little bastard.
00:58:36Sleeping around with men.
00:58:39Humiliating our family name.
00:58:42I should have sold you off when I had the chance.
00:58:46Next time I see you,
00:58:49I'll make sure the syndicate knows exactly where you are.
00:58:56Ungrateful brat.
00:58:58Think you're above me now just because you got yourself a rich boyfriend?
00:59:03Oh,
00:59:03no!
00:59:04I finally found you,
00:59:06old man.
00:59:10Finally found you,
00:59:12old man.
00:59:13Please,
00:59:13don't hurt me.
00:59:14Just don't hurt me.
00:59:15I'll get the money.
00:59:17Don't hurt me.
00:59:18Oh,
00:59:18it's a little too late for that.
00:59:22Where'd you go after the live stream?
00:59:24I tried calling you like a million times.
00:59:26Just the library.
00:59:27The library?
00:59:29After what happened?
00:59:30I was just collecting some feedback around school.
00:59:33Got some ideas to boost your polls.
00:59:34Can we
00:59:35not talk about the election right now?
00:59:38I'm just
00:59:39tired,
00:59:39okay?
00:59:44So that's it.
00:59:45You're just giving up?
00:59:47Letting your fiance take over?
00:59:49What, are you jealous or something?
00:59:50Is there something going on with Laura I should know about?
00:59:52But can we please just not talk about this right now?
00:59:56Maybe we should take a break.
01:00:00Xavier,
01:00:01wait,
01:00:02I...
01:00:05I...
01:00:11I'm such an idiot.
01:00:13Thinking I actually meant something to him.
01:00:21Oh,
01:00:22Jesus.
01:00:24Mark,
01:00:24where's Alex?
01:00:25I've been calling.
01:00:26He's at the frat house,
01:00:27last minute Vogue grabbing.
01:00:29And he's not answering his messages.
01:00:30Not even mine?
01:00:31Look,
01:00:32it's the day before the election.
01:00:33He's totally locked in,
01:00:34okay?
01:00:35Hey,
01:00:35you alright?
01:00:38You need any help?
01:00:39It's alright.
01:00:40I'll handle it.
01:00:43Of course.
01:00:44He's got people,
01:00:45goals,
01:00:46a life.
01:00:47I've only ever had him.
01:00:53What am I gonna do now?
01:00:57Want to make a deal?
01:01:06Your dad owes money to three different gangs,
01:01:08including mine.
01:01:09Please don't hurt him.
01:01:10I promise I'll figure something out.
01:01:12He can't afford it.
01:01:14Besides,
01:01:15the Fahanglino family took him.
01:01:1624 hours did they start sending body parts.
01:01:19What am I supposed to do?
01:01:26Sign this.
01:01:28And I'll pay off your dad's debt.
01:01:30But on one condition.
01:01:32You have to stop
01:01:33seeing Alex.
01:01:35For good.
01:01:38Where was he when you needed him most?
01:01:41You better keep your word.
01:01:43Browns don't lie.
01:01:49What the hell did you do?
01:01:51Xavier's not answering my calls.
01:01:53Me?
01:01:54I only saved his father's skin
01:01:56and paid off his debt.
01:01:57He should be thanking me.
01:01:59Wait,
01:02:00debt?
01:02:00What?
01:02:01What debt?
01:02:02Xavier never told me about that.
01:02:04Maybe because he dumped you?
01:02:06He was pretty clear
01:02:08that you're finished.
01:02:09No.
01:02:10No way.
01:02:11No, he wouldn't do that.
01:02:13I need to go talk to him.
01:02:27Why did you tell Laura we broke up?
01:02:30Because, it's true.
01:02:32Look, the whole reason I even dated you
01:02:34was for Princeton.
01:02:36And Laura sorted that for me.
01:02:37And she bailed my dad out.
01:02:39So, our deal?
01:02:41It's done.
01:02:42So you're just gonna dumb me
01:02:43for a college recommendation?
01:02:45Without her,
01:02:46my dad would be dead.
01:02:47And you're just holding
01:02:49a contract over my head.
01:02:50Like I'm some stunt
01:02:51to boost your votes.
01:02:52Xavier, stop!
01:02:54Okay, the contract never mattered.
01:02:57Love you.
01:02:59Okay, don't push me away.
01:03:01Love?
01:03:03Just to sob sort of me.
01:03:05Up there on your throne,
01:03:06treating me like a charity case.
01:03:08I'm done.
01:03:10You know that's not true.
01:03:12You know me.
01:03:13Do I?
01:03:16You wake up in your silk sheets,
01:03:18drinking your fancy coffee.
01:03:22I don't even know
01:03:23where I'm gonna sleep tonight.
01:03:25We're worlds apart.
01:03:27Xavier, please don't do this.
01:03:29Stay away from me!
01:03:30You make me sick.
01:03:36Just get out of my life!
01:03:38We're done!
01:03:40I just...
01:03:41I said!
01:03:42We're done!
01:03:58I'm so sorry, Alex.
01:04:01That's the hardest thing I've ever done.
01:04:04Sign this,
01:04:06and I'll pay your dad's debt.
01:04:09But in return,
01:04:10you have to cut off Alex
01:04:12for good.
01:04:14Can't do that.
01:04:17Imagine I post
01:04:18a viral TikTok
01:04:19as the heartbroken fiance
01:04:20betrayed by her closeted boyfriend.
01:04:24Alex won't just lose the election.
01:04:26He'll lose everything.
01:04:27You're twisting the truth.
01:04:30It's whatever people will believe.
01:04:32He's already losing support,
01:04:33and his family backing is next.
01:04:36Do you really want to watch him
01:04:37lose everything?
01:04:41You're dead weight, Xavier.
01:04:42And we both know it.
01:04:44My family can lift him up.
01:04:46There's only driving down.
01:04:49Alex,
01:04:50you're the best thing that's ever happened to me.
01:04:52I won't be the reason your life falls apart.
01:04:54I won't be the best thing that's ever happened to me.
01:04:56You get a sign?
01:05:00You better keep your promise.
01:05:02Browns don't lie.
01:05:14Did you forget our agreement?
01:05:23If you want me out of the election,
01:05:25fine.
01:05:26But in return,
01:05:28you cut off Xavier
01:05:29and introduced me as your fiance.
01:05:35I will email every voter
01:05:38proof that your relationship
01:05:40was fake the entire time.
01:05:43You'll lose everything.
01:05:45Get out.
01:05:49Love her legacy, Alex.
01:06:02Xavier.
01:06:22Alex, Alex, Alex.
01:06:26Alex, Alex, Alex.
01:06:28Alex, Alex.
01:06:28Alex, Alex, Alex, hello, I'm Alex Watson, and today, I stand here as...
01:06:44Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god.
01:06:48Xavier Miller and I, we're in a fake relationship.
01:06:52Are you serious?
01:06:54We signed a contract.
01:06:55What a fake!
01:06:56You lied to all of us!
01:07:02It started as fake, but then it got real.
01:07:10I've never met anyone like Xavier before.
01:07:13You okay?
01:07:19Yeah, I'm fine.
01:07:23Not even a thank you?
01:07:26At least tell me your name.
01:07:28It's not important.
01:07:32And I thought he was just some arrogant genius who didn't have time for me.
01:07:42Didn't have time for me.
01:07:43It was a stupid on-stage accident.
01:07:46And that kiss.
01:07:46I'm a-
01:07:53Yeah.
01:07:57Yeah.
01:08:04Yeah.
01:08:06Xavier, I know you're watching.
01:08:07So, listen.
01:08:10Fuck the election
01:08:12Fuck family expectations
01:08:13And fuck football
01:08:15None of them matters, Xavier
01:08:17Because all I ever wanted
01:08:18Was to be with you
01:08:24The votes are in
01:08:25The new student body president is
01:08:28Alex Watson
01:08:32Come on up and give your speech
01:08:37Uh, where is it?
01:08:42You idiot
01:08:55What are you doing here?
01:08:57You just won
01:08:58Ah, screw the election
01:09:00It's you that I won
01:09:02But you said winning is everything
01:09:05Not if it means losing you
01:09:17You're such a reckless idiot
01:09:20But that was kind of sweet
01:09:28Just need you
01:09:35Winning you
01:09:37Beats any election
01:09:40All right
01:09:41Now that line is a solid 10
01:09:49What's with all the construction?
01:09:51They building something?
01:09:52Close
01:09:54Private make-out spot
01:09:57Residential access only
01:10:00You're president now
01:10:01Try acting like him
01:10:03Hey, I'm just keeping my campaign promises
01:10:10You remembered
01:10:12Of course
01:10:16All right, let's begin
01:10:17The football kit budget was inflated 230%
01:10:22Money that could have paid for students' transport
01:10:24Who were working late
01:10:25That's the first time someone called me out for real
01:10:27And it stuck
01:10:29Already testing out the new spot?
01:10:31Bold
01:10:35Already testing out the new spot?
01:10:37Bold
01:10:37What now?
01:10:39Relax
01:10:40Just here to say goodbye
01:10:41Goodbye?
01:10:43Turns out our dads finally saw a reason
01:10:45Engagement's officially cancelled
01:10:46You're free, Alex
01:10:48Just like that?
01:10:50Not even worth fighting for?
01:10:52Can you let her finish?
01:10:54Truth is, I didn't want to marry you either
01:10:56Then why come between us?
01:10:58I just needed to prove myself
01:11:00To my parents
01:11:02To everyone
01:11:05The way you stood by each other
01:11:07Honestly, I envied that
01:11:10And the Princeton thing is still on, Xavier
01:11:13You earned it
01:11:15Thanks, Laura
01:11:18I'm off to Paris
01:11:19New family business venture
01:11:21Maybe I'll see y'all again sometime
01:11:24Maybe so
01:11:34You think she'll be okay?
01:11:36She's tougher than the both of us combined
01:11:39She'll be fine
01:11:43Still haven't mastered walking, eh?
01:11:46Only around you
01:11:46All I've meant to do
01:11:49Who can stand right next to you?
