00:00:13Can you just get to the point? I'm missing an important meeting.
00:00:16I understand, but I can't commence the reading of your father's will without your brother here.
00:00:24What the actual fuck? It's noon and you're drunk already.
00:00:28Hello, Frankie.
00:00:35Let's get decided, shall we?
00:00:39Your father's last will and testament read before his two sons as stipulated.
00:00:45In the event of my death, all wealth belonging to me, including cash, properties, shares, and stocks, will only be
00:00:51inherited by one of my sons.
00:00:55Under the condition that he marries a woman of humble background within six months.
00:01:00That's bullshit. We want to know it?
00:01:04This is your father's updated will. He was of sound mind when it was revised.
00:01:08Revised?
00:01:09When?
00:01:10A few weeks before his death. I assure you, these are his true wishes. If you'll please get seated, son.
00:01:17Fuck, you fucking son.
00:01:19Take your fucking seat, Jack. It seems there's more we need to hear.
00:01:24That woman has already been chosen by me.
00:01:27Evangeline Harris.
00:01:28She's the daughter of Anna Harris, the woman who nursed and cared for me when I was ill.
00:01:32By all accounts, she's a good, decent woman.
00:01:35I realize that this stipulation might seem unusual, but...
00:01:38To my disappointment, you have both grown overly arrogant and dismissive of those you consider to be inferior to you
00:01:43in both social standing and in wealth.
00:01:45My hope is that it will teach you to sustain a healthy relationship regardless of class or status.
00:01:50I pray that everything gets resolved with fairness, love, and kindness.
00:01:59This makes no sense at all.
00:02:02Marrying a stranger?
00:02:04How do we even get in touch with this woman?
00:02:07Evangeline...
00:02:07Evangeline Harris.
00:02:08Your father has included contact details for both her and her mother, so getting in touch with her won't be
00:02:13an issue.
00:02:15Seem a little bit composed, brother.
00:02:17Something like to tell me.
00:02:19I beg your pardon?
00:02:20We seem well calm the whole way.
00:02:23Little two will.
00:02:24It's almost like as if you already knew what was happening.
00:02:27Please tell me that's a joke.
00:02:29I'm concerned about how to get to the bottom of this, and you're concerned that I'm just not falling apart.
00:02:34You were here before me.
00:02:36God knows for how long.
00:02:38Yeah.
00:02:39Because I understand punctuality.
00:02:42Unlike you.
00:02:43You chose to be late, as usual.
00:02:46So don't forget that you're daddy's little favorite, hey?
00:02:49Who knows what else he gave you a little hint about the will?
00:02:53For fuck's sake, Jack.
00:02:54Don't start this shit now.
00:02:56We need to be working together, not taking stabs at each other.
00:03:03What do we say, dearest brother?
00:03:05But we all know the truth, and that boys will come out in the end.
00:03:09Oh, come on, Jack.
00:03:11Don't be such a child.
00:03:13Dad would want us to work as a team, no matter what.
00:03:15Mom, Jack.
00:03:17Don't think he's letting you know what, huh?
00:03:36Don't think he's letting you know anymore, huh?
00:03:59Hey, this is the 100th voicemail I've left you.
00:04:03Call me when you get this one.
00:04:10Johnny boy, how did you be looking for me?
00:04:13Speak of the devil.
00:04:15Where the fuck have you been?
00:04:17I've been trying to contact you for days.
00:04:19Been here, there, you know.
00:04:22No, I don't know.
00:04:24And can you stop playing with that?
00:04:25You always make a mess of things.
00:04:27You're always trying to control things.
00:04:29Maybe you should understand how things really work.
00:04:32What are you talking about?
00:04:34Are you drunk right now?
00:04:36Because you're not making much sense.
00:04:37Nope.
00:04:38Servers are none.
00:04:39Enough of the cryptic talk.
00:04:41Why are you so late to work if you're not on one of your vendors?
00:04:44John, John, you're always focusing on the things that aren't important.
00:04:49Why don't you just give a little?
00:04:50The things that aren't important.
00:04:52Did you realize that this company didn't die along with Dad?
00:04:55We actually have to keep it alive.
00:04:58Well, luckily have you then.
00:04:59Hey, actually, best be on it.
00:05:01I'm gonna be going.
00:05:02I'll do this chat another time.
00:05:04Where the fuck are you off to now?
00:05:12You pulled a quick one on me, didn't you?
00:05:15To think that I was worried about you, only to find out you had been in contact with Evangeline Harris.
00:05:20Damn, bro, did you run here?
00:05:23Hey, easy tiger.
00:05:25What can I say?
00:05:27I'll work better alone.
00:05:29Besides, this situation is best men wins.
00:05:32I don't see that both of us are getting married to her.
00:05:34Welcome.
00:05:37Jack, I see you're here early this time.
00:05:40This wouldn't be a bit worth the time.
00:05:42Heads up to my brother, didn't ya?
00:05:45Actually, I was obligated to share this information with both of you at the same time.
00:05:49Thank you for informing me, Mr. Frank.
00:05:51God knows if it were up to Jack, I'd still be up at the office.
00:05:54It should be worth the time.
00:05:56Shut up, jackass.
00:06:03Miss Harris won't be coming to the meeting.
00:06:06And we all know what that means.
00:06:08So without her, nothing can move forward.
00:06:12Damn it.
00:06:39Come in.
00:06:45Come in.
00:06:46Mum.
00:06:47What are you doing here?
00:06:49I didn't know what you were doing.
00:06:50We were stopping by.
00:06:51Evangeline, you look a mess.
00:06:52How many times have I told you your appearance matters all the time?
00:07:02I'm doing housework, Mum.
00:07:03Am I supposed to have a full face-up makeup on?
00:07:05Oh, well, I really don't know why you have to live in such a little shabby place.
00:07:10Surely you can find somewhere better.
00:07:12Your standards are so high.
00:07:14It's not like I can afford a mansion on the same salary.
00:07:17And besides, I like it here.
00:07:19It's nice and it's cozy.
00:07:20Well, that's why life presents you with opportunities
00:07:24and you've got to grab them when they are presented to you.
00:07:27Guess.
00:07:29I believe you were invited to a meeting by the Blackthorns lawyers.
00:07:35Yeah.
00:07:36How did you know about that?
00:07:37Oh, never mind.
00:07:37Why didn't you go?
00:07:39Because it seemed shady.
00:07:41I don't know.
00:07:41I've never spoken to that man before.
00:07:43And I only know the name Blackthorn because you worked for the late Mr Blackthorn.
00:07:48What on earth do they want with me?
00:07:50And you just dodged my question.
00:07:52How do you know about that meeting?
00:07:54Because I set it up.
00:08:01What do you mean you set it up?
00:08:03What business do you still have with our family after your patient died?
00:08:06What's going on, Mum?
00:08:07Calm down, child.
00:08:09Let me explain.
00:08:10You see, when Mr Blackthorn neared his end,
00:08:14he kind of started opening up to me and talking about his life,
00:08:19about his late wife, his two sons Jack and John.
00:08:23Fritz little twins.
00:08:24And you see, he even asked about my life.
00:08:27That's interesting, but that doesn't quite answer anything.
00:08:30But you see, when we got talking,
00:08:32we realized that we could possibly help each other.
00:08:34You see, he realized that his two sons had a bit of a,
00:08:38let's call it a classist issue.
00:08:40You mean they're pretentious rich boy freaks?
00:08:42That's not surprising, but what does that have to do with anything?
00:08:45Well, you see, he hoped for them to have a little bit more empathy
00:08:49and be a little bit less pretentious.
00:08:51And I said, my daughter actually has the opposite challenge.
00:08:55She's poor and humble and needed to step up socially.
00:08:58What?
00:09:00You told him that?
00:09:01About me?
00:09:02Parents talk about their kids.
00:09:03You see, I told him that you were fussy about,
00:09:06you know, the men you were dating,
00:09:07lacking in a bit of ambition.
00:09:09And, you know, Mr. Blackthorn was really alone at that time
00:09:12and his two boys was always just too busy to visit him.
00:09:15He might have been a little muddled at that point,
00:09:18but anyway, we still came to an agreement.
00:09:21What sort of agreement, ma'am?
00:09:22Well, he added in his will that one of his sons needed to marry you
00:09:28in order to inherit his wealth.
00:09:30You can't be serious.
00:09:33You're joking, right?
00:09:34No, wait. Let me finish. I am serious.
00:09:39You mean you agreed to sell me like a cheap pimp?
00:09:55You told that old man that I was a sad loser?
00:09:58That I would jump with the chance to marry one of his sons?
00:10:02So what if I don't have a man in my life or many friends?
00:10:04That's my choice. Mine.
00:10:07Now, I don't give a damn what you think.
00:10:10You look me in the eye and you tell me that you are fulfilled
00:10:13with everything that you have
00:10:15and everything you don't have
00:10:17and that you never had a thought
00:10:19that your life would be much easier if you had more.
00:10:23If you had more money, more status and more opportunities.
00:10:27Yeah, I thought as much.
00:10:30I only ever wanted what was good for you.
00:10:36All the things that I never had in my life growing up.
00:10:39The things I never achieved.
00:10:41So it really hurts me
00:10:43when you imply that I want to pimp you out.
00:10:51What did the sons think about this crazy scheme?
00:10:54Well, you would have known that
00:10:55if you actually went to the meeting that you refused to go to.
00:11:00I'm sorry.
00:11:01That it's to marry a total stranger?
00:11:04A very wealthy stranger, really.
00:11:07Let's see it as something like speed matchmaking.
00:11:11It happens everywhere.
00:11:13They do it on TV reality shows, social media, dating apps.
00:11:17No one's forcing you to do anything that you don't want to do,
00:11:20but let's face it, you won't lose anything by trying at least.
00:11:23What happens if I don't like the guy and I don't want to go through the marriage?
00:11:27Well, then the Blackthorn sons will just have to sort it out themselves and work through it.
00:11:32At that point, at least they've learned just a fraction of the humility that their dad wanted for them.
00:11:40Well, maybe I'll meet with the sons and see what it's like, but I can't guarantee anything further than that.
00:11:46I'll meet with the sons and see if you're a good girl.
00:11:51You're the wise you get a son say.
00:11:54Oh girl...
00:11:58Well...
00:12:04John Blackthorn?
00:12:06Yes.
00:12:08You must be Miss Harris.
00:12:10Evangeline is fine. Or Eva, if you'd like.
00:12:13Eva, there's them. I'm John.
00:12:18I hope it's not too forward of me to say this, but you look exceptionally beautiful.
00:12:26You literally just took my breath away right now. You're magnificent.
00:12:32I'm sorry about ghosting the meeting at your lawyers.
00:12:35It just came from out of the blue. I had no idea why my mother's late lawyer's lawyer would want
00:12:40to meet with me so urgently.
00:12:42It just happened so fast and I didn't really have much time to think about it. I just said yes.
00:12:49So you're aware of the part of my father's will that relates to you?
00:12:54I had no idea. It's quite strange.
00:12:58It's been a bit overwhelming. Even for me. For us.
00:13:06Isn't there supposed to be two of you? Your attorneys said I'm supposed to meet with your brother as well.
00:13:12You must be all important, Miss Harris. Speak of the devil.
00:13:22Tell me something. How much are you really gonna cost me?
00:13:25Yeah.
00:13:28And you must be Jack Blackborn.
00:13:31I guess you guys are playing good cop, bad cop.
00:13:33So he came earlier to butter me up with outrageous compliments.
00:13:37And then you sweep in for the attack.
00:13:39What are you insinuating with that to say?
00:13:42Am I interrupting something?
00:13:44Oh, don't tell me you're fooling for his boyhood routine.
00:13:49Clearly this is an exchange. You for our father's wealth. Don't play dumb.
00:13:54What the fuck is wrong with you? Don't talk to her like that. It's disgusting.
00:13:59Oh, come on. You're coming on so strong, Johnny boy. Don't act all innocent now that she's looking so beautiful.
00:14:06Is that what you think a woman is? That we're only valuable for her way we look?
00:14:12No wonder your father locked you out of his wealth.
00:14:15You're not only classist, but you're sexist as well.
00:14:17Watch your fucking mouth. You don't know anything about her.
00:14:20Or me.
00:14:22Do you think you're better than his nature?
00:14:24The fact that you've only considered in this process is a lot about you.
00:14:27You fucking bitch. How much does this cost?
00:14:30Use it to mop up your toxicity, rich boy.
00:14:32You both go to hell if you're up on.
00:14:44Evangeline, wait!
00:14:46Hold on a second.
00:14:50Nice one, Jack. Nice one.
00:14:52She's the spitfire, that one.
00:14:55What about those curves? You never know she'll be so hot.
00:14:58What the fuck is wrong with you? You made her change her mind.
00:15:02How hard is it to be polite, goddammit?
00:15:04Well, my fault, Miss Fyker, you can't take a joke.
00:15:07Besides, she'll be back eventually.
00:15:09Are you sure about that?
00:15:11I don't think you saw how angry she was.
00:15:15Don't worry, Johnny boy. I know women and I saw the fire in her today and she's burning for me.
00:15:21I think you're confusing your emotions.
00:15:23Nah. One way or another, I'll be holding a spark in my hands.
00:15:29Don't tell me now you're interested in her. You were talking down to her that entire time.
00:15:33You call her talking down, I call her flirting.
00:15:36Besides, you could see your smells in less than 20 minutes.
00:15:42I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:15:44There's no denying it.
00:15:46We could clearly see your heart thumping out of her shirt and I'm pretty sure I could make her heart
00:15:51thump a little bit more.
00:15:54Are you sure about that?
00:15:56Ha!
00:15:56I guess we'll find out.
00:16:02I guess we'll be getting my heart thump a little bit more.
00:16:21In my heart.
00:16:28Jane?
00:16:31I can hear your phone ringing, Evangeline. Open the door.
00:16:37I'm coming.
00:16:42Ignoring your mother. That's such childish behaviour.
00:16:48My mum and I didn't know it was you.
00:16:50Carbs, really. You need to watch your figure, but anyway, we'll talk about that later. I'm here for a different
00:16:55reason.
00:16:57What reason?
00:16:59Or must I spell it out for you?
00:17:00I'm here to speak to you about your meeting with the Blackthorns.
00:17:03I told you what happened.
00:17:05Please don't tell me you came all this way just to talk about it again.
00:17:08That I teach you nothing about perseverance.
00:17:11Yeah, you have a chance to change your life and even find love along the way.
00:17:16And you want to throw it away just because of one small little comment.
00:17:21Seriously, something you mean?
00:17:22Eva, I'm not asking you to reach out or even apologise to them.
00:17:26I'm asking you just to give them another try.
00:17:29I made a promise to Mr Blackhorn and I want to keep that.
00:17:33You speak like it's an obligation, but I know you didn't sign anything.
00:17:36No.
00:17:41Don't.
00:17:47John or Jack?
00:18:16You've got to be kidding me.
00:18:18John Blackhorn.
00:18:19John Blackhorn.
00:18:20What are you doing here?
00:18:22Are you stalking me?
00:18:24How did you know I work at this hotel?
00:18:26I'm sorry.
00:18:27I didn't mean to startle you.
00:18:29Well, that's exactly what you've done.
00:18:30You should never sneak up on a woman like that.
00:18:33My bad.
00:18:35I just wanted to talk to you and tell you how sorry I am about the other day.
00:18:39Oh yeah.
00:18:41Sorry about what?
00:18:43For being a two-faced Mr Nice Guy?
00:18:46Or for being dumb when your brother insulted me?
00:18:49Eva, I-
00:18:50That's Evangeline to you.
00:18:52Right.
00:18:54Evangeline.
00:18:55I swear to you I was never putting on an act at any time.
00:19:00I meant every word I said about how beautiful you are.
00:19:04I'm sorry I didn't defend you sooner.
00:19:07My brother can be difficult sometimes.
00:19:12I hope you can give me a chance to make it up to you.
00:19:16Well that sounded better this time though.
00:19:19Can't you know that I was-
00:19:21Look out!
00:19:29That was close.
00:19:30I really thought he was about to knock me over.
00:19:32If you hadn't grabbed me I'd be lying on the road by now.
00:19:34You sure you're okay?
00:19:35You're not hurt anywhere?
00:19:37It's fine.
00:19:37You just missed me.
00:19:39You saved me.
00:19:40You're my hero.
00:19:42No, no.
00:19:43It's nothing like that.
00:19:44I just happened to be looking at the road at the right time.
00:19:49You know, I've been trying to get in contact with you for the past few days.
00:19:54You're the one who's been blowing up my phone.
00:19:57How did you get my number?
00:20:01Well, when you weren't answering and I needed to get a hold of you, I called Mr. Frank, who then
00:20:06called-
00:20:07My mother.
00:20:08She loves to meddle.
00:20:10Can I give you a ride home?
00:20:12Yeah, I'd really appreciate that.
00:20:37Again, I'm sorry about what happened and how something that started so nicely ended up
00:20:44so messy.
00:20:45And I'm sorry that you almost got hit because of me.
00:20:49It's okay.
00:20:50I'm over it now.
00:20:51And that guy wasn't looking where he was going.
00:20:54Yeah, but I could have made sure you weren't.
00:20:59Sorry.
00:21:01No, it's okay.
00:21:03It's okay.
00:21:08Um, this is me, so...
00:21:13Would you like to come in for a drink?
00:21:15Yeah, that'd be great.
00:21:16Yeah.
00:21:22Of course, this buckle's kind of stuck.
00:21:25Here, come here.
00:21:26Be just indefinitely.
00:21:27Rest in like this.
00:21:36Damn it, it's work.
00:21:38I need to take this.
00:21:40Um, thanks.
00:21:41Thanks for the ride.
00:21:47I will never forget how scared you were when you thought a dead frog would come back to life and
00:21:53launch you.
00:21:54I swear it looked me straight in the eye before it took its last breath.
00:21:58Probably memorizing my face so it could have its afterlife vengeance attack.
00:22:01Wasn't it for the school project?
00:22:03Um, you were...
00:22:04Oh my god, you were so scared that you were shivering all night with the lights on even up to
00:22:08midnight.
00:22:08It's funny now, but back then it was a very different matter, I can assure you.
00:22:14You know what?
00:22:16Your mum was in stitches about the whole thing.
00:22:19No, she wasn't.
00:22:20She believed me.
00:22:21Aw, well, come on.
00:22:22At least she just made you not feel terrible.
00:22:26That's probably true.
00:22:28But in my ten-year-old brain, mum believed in the ghosts of indicted frogs.
00:22:33Yeah.
00:22:35She was something else.
00:22:38I really do, me too.
00:22:40Yeah.
00:22:41Me too.
00:22:43And dad too, of course.
00:22:48Always look at this photo of the four of us.
00:22:49Together.
00:22:54We used to have dinner as a weekly tradition.
00:22:57Why don't we do that anymore?
00:23:00I don't know.
00:23:01We were just...
00:23:03I think things got sad after mum died and we became busy, dad died and...
00:23:09I think we just lost the feeling of what it's like to be a family again.
00:23:14Well, why don't we change that?
00:23:21I've lost my appetite.
00:23:22I'll leave it to it, Johnny Boy.
00:23:39Ah, Johnny Boy.
00:23:41Welcome.
00:23:42Take a seat.
00:23:44Look, I got the chef to make your favourite meal.
00:23:47Well, it all looks so good.
00:23:50And you're in a very good mood tonight.
00:23:53Mm-hmm.
00:23:53Yes.
00:23:54I thought after the way you stormed out last night I'd have to be worried about you.
00:23:57Don't worry about that. I've got that under control as usual.
00:24:00Well, maybe better now. We'll cheers to the night.
00:24:04Cheers.
00:24:07I hope you've worked out a big appetite.
00:24:09This is going to become a three-course meal.
00:24:11I'm as hungry as I've ever been.
00:24:12Mmm.
00:24:13It all looks delicious.
00:24:16So...
00:24:18I noticed Miss Harris called you yesterday.
00:24:21I didn't realise you guys were...
00:24:22...becoming the same place.
00:24:24So surprised.
00:24:25It's nothing serious.
00:24:27I reached out to apologise to her.
00:24:29And we've been friendly ever since.
00:24:31So you're making progress, right?
00:24:35Sneaking slowly to her heart.
00:24:37One phone call at a time.
00:24:40What's next?
00:24:42Six on the beach.
00:24:45Jack, please.
00:24:47Don't start that now.
00:24:49Don't ruin a good dinner.
00:24:52Hmm.
00:24:53Not on the wall.
00:24:55Oh.
00:24:56Hmm.
00:24:58What is that?
00:25:01Guess who's going to have Eva work under him?
00:25:24You're off to see me?
00:25:27Yes, I did.
00:25:28Have a seat.
00:25:30I don't understand.
00:25:31What are you doing here?
00:25:33Well, I bought the Hotel of the Old Owners.
00:25:35It's simple as that.
00:25:36Are you shocked to see me since the first time we met?
00:25:39Have you spoken about me at least?
00:25:41Well, I know you and my brother have been speaking.
00:25:43What do you think? I'm just going to vanish into thin air?
00:25:47No, I didn't ask about you.
00:25:49You went out a prick that day.
00:25:52Watch your tone, young lady.
00:25:54You don't want to be getting fired speaking to the boss now, would you?
00:25:58Of course not.
00:26:00You don't have to worry.
00:26:01It's not going to ask you to blow me or anything.
00:26:03Well, not yet.
00:26:05I think HR would hate dear about that.
00:26:07I don't give a shit about HR.
00:26:09I own HR, which means I own you.
00:26:13Well, that would be all, Miss Harris.
00:26:15You can get back to work.
00:26:16But my brother doesn't need to know about this.
00:26:45Just the man I was looking for.
00:26:47When was it this time?
00:26:49Take a look at this.
00:26:51Blackthorn Corporation isn't doing as badly as we'd feared.
00:26:54It's not as good as when Dad was here, but still alive and kicking.
00:27:00I've got some news, but I'm not sure if you're going to like it.
00:27:04I think it can wait.
00:27:05Can we take a look at this first?
00:27:07You can tell me after.
00:27:08No, I can't wait.
00:27:12Okay.
00:27:13You have my attention.
00:27:15What is it?
00:27:16I'm afraid I have to relinquish some of my responsibilities at Blackthorn Corp.
00:27:20What?
00:27:21Why?
00:27:22I bought a hotel.
00:27:23You bought a hotel?
00:27:24The Bellevue Hotel.
00:27:25I've just signed the papers.
00:27:26Why the fuck would you do that?
00:27:29You're barely even here.
00:27:30Now you've gone and bought a hotel?
00:27:32It's the money from my own fund.
00:27:34You don't have to worry.
00:27:35I just thought I'd let you know because I won't be around much longer.
00:27:38All two things settled down.
00:27:42It's the hotel management.
00:27:43I'd best be off.
00:27:52This is quite a surprise.
00:27:55I mean, it's a good surprise.
00:27:57Please come in.
00:28:04So, this is your place?
00:28:07Yeah.
00:28:08Welcome to how the other half lives.
00:28:11I didn't mean-
00:28:15Isn't this what your father wanted for you?
00:28:17To mingle with the lower class?
00:28:20I'm just messing with you.
00:28:23Okay.
00:28:25These are for you.
00:28:29Except those.
00:28:31My favorite thing.
00:28:33How did you know?
00:28:35I made a good guess.
00:28:47Somehow, I don't believe it was a random guess.
00:28:51Come on, tell me the truth.
00:28:54Okay, fine.
00:28:57You told me you really liked chrysanthemums since you were little.
00:29:00And your grandpa used to grow them in his garden.
00:29:04Yeah, I do like them.
00:29:06They're beautiful and unique.
00:29:12I'm glad you love them.
00:29:14I almost got you wild orchids.
00:29:16I mean, I do like those too.
00:29:19I would have cooked dinner.
00:29:22But I do have chocolate chip ice cream.
00:29:27My favorite flavor.
00:29:30What's yours?
00:29:30What's yours?
00:29:30Boring old vanilla ice cream.
00:29:33Yeah.
00:29:34Vanilla isn't always boring.
00:29:39It's um...
00:29:41It's nice and...
00:29:45plain.
00:29:47I'm sorry.
00:29:48I was trying to think of another adjective.
00:29:52Um...
00:29:54Is that still in my face?
00:30:00You're staring. Do I have something on my face?
00:30:04No.
00:30:05You're perfect.
00:30:08You're so beautiful, Evangeline.
00:30:14I'm quite handsome.
00:30:15I'm so...
00:30:18May I kiss you?
00:30:32No.
00:30:33Sorry, I don't know what came over me.
00:30:36It's alright, we'll just call up here for a moment.
00:30:39Right.
00:30:40That's all.
00:30:42Did you know Jack was going to buy the hotel where I work?
00:30:46Is this some kind of weird game you guys are playing of inheritance?
00:30:50No.
00:30:51I had no idea he was going to do that.
00:30:54My brother talks cryptically and he can be hard to decode sometimes.
00:30:58He didn't mention anything until a few minutes before you called.
00:31:01How come he can afford to buy a whole freaking hotel?
00:31:04Aren't you guys supposed to be hanging on to your father's properties?
00:31:09Yes, we are.
00:31:11But his purchase didn't exactly make a dent in our savings.
00:31:15We both have healthy trust funds.
00:31:18Jack just took some money out of his to buy the hotel.
00:31:21Well, isn't it just fantastic rich boys can do that?
00:31:25So what do I do?
00:31:26I like my job and I need it.
00:31:28But Jack told me to watch my back.
00:31:31I wasn't supposed to tell you that.
00:31:34I think he was just saying that to freak you out.
00:31:36And he wouldn't have told me about the hotel if he didn't want me to know.
00:31:40I can't believe my new boss is trying to marry me so he can get a couple million dollars.
00:31:44Uh, more than a couple billion actually.
00:31:50Wow, I feel even more special.
00:31:55I should be going.
00:31:56Let me know if anything.
00:32:04I know you'll probably want to leave, but would you like some pizza?
00:32:08It's good.
00:32:10I don't want to intrude.
00:32:11I'm just inviting you to join me.
00:32:13Just two friends eating pizza and chatting about life.
00:32:17Is that what we are?
00:32:18Friends?
00:32:19I think so, we're close enough at least.
00:32:22Even though I kissed you?
00:32:24Yes, even though you kissed me.
00:32:27Fine.
00:32:38This is so cozy.
00:32:40I know.
00:32:42I can't remember the last time I was just hanging out like this.
00:32:45You're welcome.
00:32:56I swear to god.
00:33:01What? What was that? I noticed the look on your face.
00:33:04It's nothing serious.
00:33:06Just work.
00:33:07I don't have to deal with it right now.
00:33:13I'll be alright then.
00:33:16I just...
00:33:20Still thinking about the fact that, you know, Jack is now my boss.
00:33:29Will you bring it up with him?
00:33:32No.
00:33:34Not yet at least.
00:33:36I think it's best if he thinks he has the upper hand for now.
00:33:42What happens next?
00:33:45I don't know, Eva.
00:33:47But I promise you, he'll do nothing stupid.
00:33:50You have my word.
00:34:04Hello, my beautiful Eva.
00:34:05Work is hectic this morning and I'm meeting until later.
00:34:08How does dinner sound tonight?
00:34:09Yours, John.
00:34:12I can't wait.
00:34:13I can't wait.
00:34:14Thinking about nobody.
00:34:15I have a great time.
00:34:17Eva.
00:34:17Eva?
00:34:19Are you on your phone right now?
00:34:20This is not your personal space.
00:34:23Must I remind you that you're at work?
00:34:25And you must be focusing on that.
00:34:26My apologies, sir.
00:34:28I was just checking my calendar.
00:34:30Your calendar.
00:34:31How timely.
00:34:33I promise I'm up to date on my morning tasks.
00:34:36And I'm just currently waiting for candidates for the sous chef while.
00:34:40Unless I haven't been slacking off.
00:34:42Well, I'll be the judge of that.
00:34:43Because I'll be supervising all interviews from now.
00:34:46Alright, of course.
00:34:48Of course.
00:34:50Of course, Mr. Blackpools, sir.
00:34:53Yeah, Martha's now, Miss Harris.
00:34:54There's something I need to show you and it's urgent.
00:35:05Please shut the door behind you.
00:35:15Is there something wrong?
00:35:17As a matter of fact, there is.
00:35:22What's this?
00:35:23Go ahead and open it.
00:35:24It's a little present from me to you.
00:35:26I'm sure you'll find the contents quite interesting.
00:35:34What's this?
00:35:34When was this taken?
00:35:37These are pictures of my brother with his little fling at a fancy restaurant.
00:35:41This isn't real.
00:35:43This is AI dog food or something.
00:35:44I knew you'd say something like that, so I have even stronger proof.
00:35:48Yes, see, my friends of the restaurant.
00:35:50I am quite close with the son and he could easily get the live feed
00:35:53and now I owe him.
00:35:56One way or another?
00:35:58This is fake.
00:35:59And I believe you.
00:36:01Oh, you have magically fallen in love with him, haven't you?
00:36:04Don't tell me you're fucking him.
00:36:07Oh, wow.
00:36:09I didn't see this one come in.
00:36:11Wow, Johnny boy is working so quickly.
00:36:14Good on him.
00:36:16Since you have, you know, benefit down for him, why don't you give him a call and ask for the
00:36:20camera footage yourself?
00:36:30Well, there's only one way to find out now, isn't it?
00:36:32Call him.
00:36:52Hello, it's me.
00:36:56How's it going?
00:37:02You're in a meeting right now, is that correct?
00:37:06Uh-huh.
00:37:12Oh, don't be so sad.
00:37:15These women don't last long, and I'm sure he's going to call and say it's just a business meeting,
00:37:20but anyone with eyes and ears and a head will know that's nothing like that.
00:37:28Why are you doing this?
00:37:30Oh, well, I want to make sure that you know what kind of man my brother really is.
00:37:34Then let me guess.
00:37:36You're the upstanding brother who's doing his betterment for the world, is that what this is?
00:37:44You can't pretend, even for a second, you haven't done this for your own nefarious purposes.
00:37:49No matter how selfless you want to appear, you're no better than your brother.
00:37:53In fact, I see more similarities than differences in you two now.
00:37:59Watch your turn, young lady.
00:38:01Maybe you forgot I'm still your boss.
00:38:03You don't want to get fired now over losing the temper of some man, do you?
00:38:14That's okay, you go back to the office now.
00:38:16Don't worry about the interviews, I'll take care of that.
00:38:18No, let me handle the interviews.
00:38:20I don't need a day off.
00:38:22Okay, fine.
00:38:23But make sure you're efficient.
00:38:25I don't want to hear any reports of my junior manager bursting into tears while screening new stuff.
00:38:31I'll be highly embarrassing.
00:38:33I'll make sure everything goes well.
00:38:42Hey, you.
00:38:45How was your meeting?
00:38:48You know, the one that took hours and hours of your time?
00:38:51It must have been really important.
00:38:55No, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it to dinner tonight.
00:38:59I'm not feeling too good, so we'll have to make a rain check until further notice.
00:39:17That's one quick door break.
00:39:19Well, it's you.
00:39:21There you are.
00:39:22I've been knocking for ages.
00:39:24Your TV was so loud.
00:39:26I brought you ice cream.
00:39:28That's not necessary.
00:39:30I'm doing okay.
00:39:31Are you sure, Yvonne?
00:39:33You don't look so good.
00:39:36Have you been to the doctor?
00:39:37Is everything okay with you, Jim?
00:39:39You sound pissed off with me.
00:39:41What's wrong?
00:39:43You're acting strange, and you haven't even let me come in.
00:39:47I don't think this is a conversation we should be having in the hallway.
00:39:50Strange?
00:39:52Or am I just not all over you like the other night?
00:39:55I guess you want to repeat.
00:39:57Too bad.
00:39:58It's not going to happen.
00:39:59What the fuck is that supposed to mean?
00:40:02Are you going to keep spinning cryptic phrases like that?
00:40:04Or are you going to let me come in so we can have a civilized conversation?
00:40:07The ice cream's melting.
00:40:09I don't give a shit about the melting ice cream.
00:40:12I hope it ruins your expensive shoes.
00:40:14The last time we spoke, you were cheerful.
00:40:17Now you're acting like a dog pissed in your cereal.
00:40:20If I said or did something wrong, just let me know, okay?
00:40:24Fuck off.
00:40:25That's what I want to tell you.
00:40:31Where is this coming from?
00:40:33You didn't give me a single clue that anything was wrong, and now you're blowing up in my face.
00:40:38You know, I ordered Chinese food, but ice cream will do.
00:40:42Are you even listening to me?
00:40:43You're acting like I'm not even talking to you.
00:40:46You came to check up on me, and you've done that.
00:40:49You brought me my ice cream, and you can go any merry way.
00:40:54Don't you dare touch me.
00:40:55What the hell, Evangeline?
00:40:57You're being childish and lashing out for no good reason.
00:41:01If you didn't want to see me, you could have given me a single phone call.
00:41:05You didn't have to fake illness just to get out of seeing me.
00:41:08Yeah, whatever.
00:41:10You can see yourself out.
00:41:11Have a nice life, John.
00:41:13Eva, wait!
00:41:22But of course I'll pay you back.
00:41:24Disgust you say such a thing.
00:41:26Well, you know how things go.
00:41:27One good turn turns to another.
00:41:30Anyway, I've got to go.
00:41:31I'll call you back later.
00:41:32Bye.
00:41:39Hey, brother.
00:41:41What are you doing here?
00:41:43Is it a crime to come check up on family?
00:41:46What are you really doing here, John?
00:41:47I doubt family concerns brought you here.
00:41:50Who did you come to see Eva?
00:41:52I know you know she works here, and she does look gorgeous in that tight body.
00:41:56You keep her name out of your mouth.
00:41:59So I am right.
00:42:01You did come all this way just to see your little girlfriend.
00:42:04Don't tell me you've had a little rocky match now, have you?
00:42:07How do you know about that?
00:42:10Maybe she told me.
00:42:11Why do I get the feeling that you had something to do with it?
00:42:15Well, why don't you ask yourself?
00:42:16I'm sure she'll be in here in a second.
00:42:18And funnily enough, why don't you count down with me?
00:42:20In five, four, three...
00:42:23These are the reports you asked for.
00:42:31These are the reports you asked for.
00:42:34Ah, please come in.
00:42:35Right on time.
00:42:36I just finished speaking with IT.
00:42:38They've made the changes you've requested already.
00:42:41And I was able to export the new data into the system.
00:42:44Have you?
00:42:45Look, why don't you come to the big person?
00:42:46You seem to be comfortable over there.
00:42:53You're really going to act like you can't see me right now?
00:42:56Eva, that'll be all now.
00:42:58We do need a cross-check to make sure the thing is alright,
00:43:01and make sure it's all foolproof, alright?
00:43:03Okay, I'll get on to that right now.
00:43:04And I'll check the new schedules.
00:43:12Please move out of my way.
00:43:13Yeah, I'm seeing like I'm radioactive.
00:43:16John, can you please step aside and let her get to work, thank you.
00:43:18You stay out of this, Jack.
00:43:20It's none of your business.
00:43:22This is between me and her.
00:43:24There is nothing between you and I.
00:43:26In fact, I doubt there ever was.
00:43:33Fucking asshole!
00:43:34What bullshit did you tell her now?
00:43:36Watch your tone, young man.
00:43:38You're not the boss around here.
00:43:40If you don't watch yourself, Johnny boy,
00:43:42I might just get screwed to escort your little bum bum out of here now.
00:43:45Whatever you did, I'm going to get some bottom of it.
00:43:58No, I'm good with this.
00:44:00Has my brother tried contacting you?
00:44:02He was quite adamant last time.
00:44:04No, he hasn't.
00:44:06That's good.
00:44:09Some of the staff have been approved turn off, so we just need to address the budgets.
00:44:13Let me see that.
00:44:16Yeah, that's much better.
00:44:17I can really see what's making me in a hell.
00:44:21So I'll just need your watch signature here, and here.
00:44:26Have I told you how beautiful you look today?
00:44:28What?
00:44:29Don't act no surprise.
00:44:31You surely have to know how you act around me when you dress like that.
00:44:34I don't know if it's all this year.
00:44:35Why are you so shy?
00:44:38I can go down for the day.
00:44:40I don't know what's in the touch of this.
00:44:42What the hell are you doing?
00:44:54Jack, that hat's let go of me.
00:44:56Exactly what I'm doing.
00:44:57You're not so naive.
00:45:00Jack, stop.
00:45:01Why are you so insisting?
00:45:03I know you want to.
00:45:07I've seen some serious.
00:45:11I'm actually not assuming I get around.
00:45:15I've got a girl in my head, I've got a girl in my head.
00:45:19I've got a girl in my head, I've got a girl in my head.
00:45:19I can be a dream, Chloe!
00:45:20Hannah!
00:45:33What since?
00:45:36That's a half a million dollars.
00:45:39Fine.
00:45:40I know you didn't just call me under the blue for nothing.
00:45:46I was coming to you because I know you got your daughter's best interest at heart.
00:45:50She's especially got that ego.
00:45:54Now I can tell that you know your way around words.
00:45:56Can we just get straight to the point, please?
00:45:59Alright then.
00:46:01You're aware of stipulations of my father's will?
00:46:03Sure.
00:46:04I want to marry your daughter.
00:46:05There's been a misunderstanding.
00:46:07And I need you to smooth it over.
00:46:10Because, well, you're the only one that your daughter looks up to.
00:46:14So what type of misunderstanding was this?
00:46:16I mean, why don't you just go to her and ask her forgiveness?
00:46:18I mean, my daughter doesn't hold grudges.
00:46:21I know my daughter.
00:46:22Well, that's between your daughter and I.
00:46:24I hope you understand.
00:46:25No, you see, I don't understand.
00:46:27Because you just made it my business by bringing it to me.
00:46:31Now tell me, was this a misunderstanding of a sexual nature?
00:46:35And was this misunderstanding non-consensual?
00:46:41As I said, this is between your daughter and I.
00:46:43And my wife, I'll tell you what happens behind closed doors.
00:46:47Well, you see, you are more than a twisted rich prick.
00:46:51If you think you're going to pay me to hush my daughter.
00:46:58Is that so?
00:46:59Yes, very so.
00:47:00No, I don't know what tricks you have up your sleeve.
00:47:04But I can tell you this.
00:47:06It's nothing compared to the wrath of an angry woman.
00:47:09Well...
00:47:09And you can best believe that if you did something bad to her, you'll pay for it.
00:47:16That I'll have to agree with.
00:47:18But how angry and heartbreaking would your daughter feel when she knows this isn't a first sweetener that you got
00:47:24from the Blackthorns?
00:47:26Sweetener?
00:47:27I don't know what you're talking about.
00:47:28Not done, Miss Harris.
00:47:30I didn't just come to you because I was feeling sentimental about your relationship with your daughter.
00:47:35I came here to offer you more money and an additional payment that you got from my father to introduce
00:47:39that you are.
00:47:41I really don't know what you're talking about.
00:47:43Spare me the bullshit.
00:47:44I've seen your signature on a couple of documents.
00:47:47I just wonder how same my father was when he changed the world.
00:47:51Best of my knowledge, only a minor would need a guardian signature.
00:47:55What do I know?
00:47:56That's not what happened.
00:47:58But I do know that, in the court of law, a carer such as yourself, taken advantage of a poor
00:48:04man's dying...
00:48:05What do you expect me to do, Jack?
00:48:08Hm?
00:48:09Wave this magic wand and just miraculously have my daughter forgive you?
00:48:13I don't know about your world, but in mine it doesn't work that way.
00:48:16It's a beautiful thing right now, isn't it?
00:48:18Maybe you should mention John or Ella Suey's name to your daughter.
00:48:21Maybe that will help.
00:48:22I'm sure you'd be more successful and a lot richer if you knew how to play your cards right.
00:48:27Maybe you might get the forgiveness of your daughter.
00:48:29I'm not sure, but that's up to you.
00:48:30One day later.
00:48:37Two times later.
00:48:42Two times later.
00:48:43So long, The Bellevier Hotel...
00:48:58Hey, darling. How are you doing?
00:49:01Mom, I thought I wasn't seeing you to our lunch next week.
00:49:05Well, I was in the neighborhood and I thought I would bring us some pizza.
00:49:09Well, thank you for the pizza. Let's have us right away.
00:49:15Pleasure. So, how have you been doing? You look really relaxed today.
00:49:20You, um, you haven't told me that my hair looks like a bird's nest or the baggy clothes I'm wearing
00:49:28are going to scare us. Seriously.
00:49:31Well, okay, so I can't even give you a compliment now and it's taken the opposite way. I can't even
00:49:36say nice things to you now.
00:49:37Rather tell me how is things with that blackthorn boy that you were smiling about the other day.
00:49:43Um, me and John? Yeah.
00:49:45Um, we're no longer together. I honestly don't know who we ever were.
00:49:51Oh, okay. And what about the other one? Um, I think it also starts with the J. Jack.
00:49:56Yeah. His name is Jack. I remember Jack.
00:49:59How's things with him last? I heard, uh, he was actually knowing your boss or something.
00:50:03Things between us are how they should be.
00:50:05But what does that mean? Is there something else going on?
00:50:08You know that you can talk to me, sweetie.
00:50:18It was, uh, an incident between me and Jack. He got physical.
00:50:23Were you guys drinking?
00:50:24No, Mum. I wasn't drinking. Neither was he.
00:50:29Okay, I'm just asking. I mean, you know, what do you think is going to happen if you're alone with
00:50:34your boss?
00:50:35I mean, he's a handsome boy and you guys must be attracted to each other.
00:50:39What are you saying? That I wanted this?
00:50:42I didn't.
00:50:43I'm just saying you can use this to your advantage. I mean, things didn't work out with you and John.
00:50:49Why not just go with the other brother?
00:50:51That is so messed up. He tried to assault me. Can you hear yourself? I've just been through something really
00:51:00traumatic and I won't hear any more from you.
00:51:02I can't do this with you anymore, Mum. Every time I think we're trying to bond, you just start making
00:51:08unreasonable demands and...
00:51:10Can you just please, please?
00:51:12Fine.
00:51:42What did I find her?
00:51:45Little one of the photos and gauges on the ground.
00:51:58Hey.
00:52:01Thank you for agreeing to see me.
00:52:07You sounded desperate.
00:52:10It was the least I could do.
00:52:12I know what it feels like not to be hurt.
00:52:17I'm sorry about that.
00:52:20I did that because I just wanted to lash out and hurt you the same way you hurt me.
00:52:26For the hundredth time, I have no idea what you're talking about. Could you please get straight to the point?
00:52:32Why do you want to see me now? It's been weeks since you slammed your door in my face.
00:52:36I wanted to apologize.
00:52:39I wanted to apologize because I opted unfairly. I was shown pictures and a live video of you and a
00:52:46beautiful Asian woman.
00:52:47Who?
00:52:49Ella Swee? That's ridiculous. She's a client.
00:52:54I know that now, but at the time it seemed like you guys were much more than clients and...
00:52:59Trust me, I just saw you guys live.
00:53:03Who showed you those pictures and videos? Who wanted to tear us apart?
00:53:10It was Jack, wasn't it?
00:53:13Yes, it was Jack. He completely manipulated me.
00:53:17He had access to security footage and I completely fell for it.
00:53:23What were you for?
00:53:23I just... I realized who she was after I saw a news segment of her and her feel too.
00:53:30Oh.
00:53:32I'm here to apologize for the unkind way I treated you and I embarrassed you and...
00:53:38Can you please forgive me?
00:53:51I'm so sorry I was a bitch to you, John.
00:53:57Jack is a master manipulator.
00:54:00But I can't believe he got access to the security footage.
00:54:03I could sue for violation of privacy.
00:54:06I doubt the owners thought it through.
00:54:08I don't think so either, but Jack mentioned something about owing someone a favor.
00:54:14You must be so hurt.
00:54:16I'm sorry you were put in that position.
00:54:18Of course I forgive you.
00:54:21Why are you so kind to me?
00:54:24You should make me grovel. I deserve it.
00:54:28There's no point in that.
00:54:30We've wasted weeks already.
00:54:32I've missed you so much.
00:54:35I've missed you too.
00:54:44My lips are as soft as I remember.
00:54:48I'm so stupid.
00:54:51Did anything happen between you and Jack?
00:54:54How did you happen? Did you see something?
00:54:57No, it's just...
00:54:59You were friendlier to him.
00:55:00That day at the office.
00:55:02No, nothing happened.
00:55:04Except when he tried to force himself upon me.
00:55:07It was late.
00:55:09He did what?
00:55:10Fine.
00:55:12He didn't rape me.
00:55:13That fucking asshole.
00:55:15That son of a bitch, I gotta fucking kill him!
00:55:19Don't make excuses for him.
00:55:21What he did was fucked up.
00:55:36What the fuck's going on here?
00:55:40What the fuck does it look like, brother?
00:55:42My darling and I are just enjoying dinner together in our family home.
00:55:47Isn't that right, sweetheart?
00:55:49Yes, it is.
00:55:50The pasta is the best I've ever tasted in my life.
00:55:53Now, isn't that nice?
00:55:55Jack, surely you'd like to join us?
00:55:58Join you?
00:56:00No, thank you.
00:56:01Okay.
00:56:03Your loss.
00:56:05It's good to see you both have reached each other again.
00:56:08How sweet.
00:56:10You must be thrilled.
00:56:12Yes.
00:56:13We are, in fact, very thrilled.
00:56:15It only took us a short while to find each other, and...
00:56:19that's how you know it's real.
00:56:22Right.
00:56:22And you've been missing work because of your...
00:56:25lover?
00:56:28No.
00:56:33I've been missing work because my boss assaulted me.
00:56:36I had to resign.
00:56:38Or maybe HR hasn't mentioned that to you yet.
00:56:42Assault?
00:56:43You both know you seduce me.
00:56:45What assault?
00:56:47And HR?
00:56:49Joan, she's fucking lying.
00:56:52Can you repeat that, please?
00:56:53Slower this time.
00:56:55I don't think I quite heard you the first time.
00:56:59She's a...
00:57:00Ava's only here because her mommy sold her off.
00:57:05You don't know mommy told you this.
00:57:07What the hell are you talking about?
00:57:09What do you mean she sold me off?
00:57:11You don't know.
00:57:14Mama Harris put an extra clause into the claim.
00:57:18Because she wanted more money.
00:57:20What, you think she's just gonna kick her daughter up a social ladder?
00:57:24No, no, no.
00:57:25She was only to prove your father gave something in return.
00:57:29You're lying!
00:57:38Am I lying?
00:57:40Am I lying?
00:57:41Maybe you should ask her yourself.
00:57:44It's not the first time she's had Blackthorn money stuffed in her pocket.
00:57:50Did she...
00:57:51Surprise you with a visit?
00:57:54Yeah, she did.
00:57:56So that was you you pushed her on me.
00:57:59My lips are sealed.
00:58:01When did you become such a terrible person, Jack?
00:58:05You're destroying the relationship between a mother and a daughter just to get what you want.
00:58:10She's already made her choice.
00:58:13Eva has chosen me just as I have chosen her.
00:58:16It's over, Jack.
00:58:19No, no.
00:58:22It's not over.
00:58:32I don't know.
00:58:32Please say something.
00:58:35I don't know what to say other than...
00:58:37I'm sorry we've put you through so much.
00:58:40You didn't ask for any of this.
00:58:43And I'm sorry that your mother hasn't been honest with you.
00:58:47That revelation about her must have hurt so much.
00:58:51I wonder why she just pushed Jack's assault to me on the side.
00:58:58She just...
00:59:00She doesn't seem to care about the trauma I went through.
00:59:08She just told me,
00:59:10Look on the bright side.
00:59:14It's crazy that she pushed Jack onto me after what he did.
00:59:21I've been so stupid.
00:59:24I've been so stupid.
00:59:25Don't say that.
00:59:27You're kind and smart and good.
00:59:30And vulnerable to people trying to take advantage of you.
00:59:39What are you doing?
00:59:43Will you marry me?
00:59:53Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.
01:00:02Now we can finally put an end to all of this bullshit with my brother.
01:00:06I can't wait to see the look on his face when we tell him who I'm going to engage.
01:00:10He's going to be furious.
01:00:13Okay, but...
01:00:14We have to tell the lawyer about...
01:00:18What's happened.
01:00:20Yes.
01:00:21But first...
01:00:23We need to celebrate.
01:00:25You're going to be my lovely wife, Eva.
01:00:28Cheers to us.
01:00:30Cheers.
01:00:41What the...
01:00:43Heavenly fuck.
01:00:47We'll see about this.
01:00:50When can I see you? It's urgent.
01:00:53When are you available?
01:00:55Yes, it's about the will.
01:00:57I've got to help my officers as I can.
01:00:59No jobs need to know about this.
01:01:01It's none of his concern.
01:01:10You got yourself into this, and the only way out for you is to hold up your end of the
01:01:14bargain.
01:01:15My end of the bargain?
01:01:16You tampered with a contract, and now everything is messed up.
01:01:20My daughter won't even speak to me.
01:01:23You can't just...
01:01:27What was that? She just flew out of here.
01:01:32Um...
01:01:33That's confidential.
01:01:34Yeah, yeah, of course it is.
01:01:35Man, whoever that was, she was pissed.
01:01:37You said you had something to tell me. Something about the will?
01:01:40I have news.
01:01:42Please sit.
01:01:44This is going to blow everything up in the air.
01:01:46Yes, yes, I'm listening.
01:01:47I want to contest my father's will.
01:01:49What?
01:01:50Well, he signed it, and he was forced by Hannah Harris.
01:01:53It's probably under duress.
01:01:54What?
01:01:55Well, until this gets cleared up, the will stands.
01:01:58If I have to sue John over it, so be it.
01:02:06Oh, Jack.
01:02:08What's that fucking funny?
01:02:10The contract your father signed with Hannah Harris was not signed under duress.
01:02:15How can you be so sure my private investment...
01:02:16Sure, because I was there when it was signed.
01:02:19It was your father's idea to begin with.
01:02:22But that's...
01:02:23It's not possible. It can't be.
01:02:25But why would my father sign a contract?
01:02:28He knew Hannah Harris wanted money for her incentive.
01:02:31But he also made sure she had a reason to stay involved even after the money was paid to her.
01:02:39What reason?
01:02:41Your father was a smart man, though not unkind.
01:02:45He didn't get so wealthy by being a pushover.
01:02:48He included a clause in the contract that stipulated that if Evangeline did not marry one of his sons,
01:02:54Anna would have to repay the money.
01:02:56Let me guess, Anna didn't know about that before she signed?
01:02:59She did not.
01:03:01Foolishly, she did not read the fight in print.
01:03:04Your father left an apology note and me to explain exactly why he did what he did.
01:03:10Fuck.
01:03:12Jack Blackthorn.
01:03:13This is neither the time nor the place for that kind of language.
01:03:17Man, I'm so close getting this right.
01:03:20Why is my father always one step ahead?
01:03:23Even from the fucking grave?
01:03:25I understand you're upset, but if you had taken this to court, you would have been humiliated when he got
01:03:29thrown out of it.
01:03:30You did yourself a favor by coming to me first, son.
01:03:34I'm not your fucking son.
01:03:36You know what? This is all right from the side.
01:03:38You just want little Johnny Boy to win, huh?
01:03:41Guess what? I'm not going to give over and lay on my fucking grave.
01:04:13What are you doing here?
01:04:14Where's your daughter?
01:04:15Not here.
01:04:17I told you she's not here. Are you deaf?
01:04:21Your parents perfectly fine, thank you very much.
01:04:23See, this is where your daughter lives in this shit hole.
01:04:26Guess they all should have fucking thanks for free money.
01:04:29Like mother, like daughter.
01:04:31Oh, excuse me. You can't come into my daughter's place and throw insults around.
01:04:36What are you doing here anyway? You crazy. You need to get out till I put in the cops.
01:04:40Funny from you. You're not even supposed to be here.
01:04:42I'm her mother. I have a key.
01:04:46It was you at the Lawrence Office family, wasn't it?
01:04:49You need to get out.
01:04:53If you didn't fuck things up with your daughter, eh, I would have had the upper hand.
01:04:56Oh, excuse me. If you weren't such a sleazy, creepy son of a bitch, you may have stood a chance
01:05:02with her.
01:05:02You dirty goldy, like your dirty daughter, eh?
01:05:05Guess the girl doesn't fall too far from the train, does it?
01:05:07Yeah.
01:05:14Heather, what the fuck? Say something.
01:05:19What are you saying?
01:05:21Help.
01:05:22No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:05:25Hannah, don't you get dying on me?
01:05:27What the fuck?
01:05:32What the fuck?
01:05:34There's a woman that she's unconscious, she's suddenly fell.
01:05:41I don't have any of that medication, she's just hit her head.
01:05:49Fuck the fuck, John, get up.
01:05:54Fuck the fuck.
01:05:56Fuck the fuck.
01:06:14Fuck the fuck.
01:06:44I'm sure I'm going to miss this place.
01:06:47It was small, but I was independent and happy here.
01:06:52Don't get too comfy.
01:06:54We're only here to pick up your things.
01:06:56You're going to love living in the mansion.
01:07:01That's weird.
01:07:04What's weird?
01:07:05Something feels off.
01:07:08I don't know, apartment things cleaner than I remember.
01:07:12Maybe your mother came by.
01:07:13You mentioned she had a key.
01:07:15Yeah, I don't know.
01:07:17And I hated this place.
01:07:18Cleaning's the last thing she'd do here.
01:07:21Maybe you just left it cleaner than you remember.
01:07:27I'd like to bring someone that you could wear.
01:07:29They're not sophisticated, but...
01:07:31I like them.
01:07:35What about your toiletries?
01:07:36Good idea.
01:07:37I just need to pack my things from the bathroom.
01:07:49Hey, Eva.
01:07:50I need to go.
01:07:53Wait.
01:07:54What?
01:07:54Why?
01:07:56I've been ignoring Jack's calls, but...
01:07:58He just sent me a message saying there's been an emergency.
01:08:01I need to go meet him.
01:08:02I hope he's okay.
01:08:03Is he still your brother or not?
01:08:05I'm sure he's fine.
01:08:07It's probably just a flat tire or something.
01:08:10I'll be back ASAP.
01:08:12I'll stay to my birthday.
01:08:14Okay.
01:08:39Let's not do.
01:08:52You.
01:08:52That's...
01:08:53That's...
01:08:54That's cute.
01:08:56You.
01:08:57You sent one a message.
01:08:59Yes, I did.
01:09:01What are you doing?
01:09:03Where did you come from?
01:09:05Is this one of your games you're playing yet?
01:09:07Give me that!
01:09:08That's Mom's!
01:09:09I'll take that, thank you.
01:09:13You didn't answer my question.
01:09:16What are you doing inside my apartment?
01:09:19I was so unlocked and I just walked in.
01:09:21That's impossible.
01:09:22I would have heard you.
01:09:24Why did you text John about an emergency when you were already coming here yourself?
01:09:27What are you trying to imply, Eva?
01:09:29That I broke into your house or I lied to my brother?
01:09:33I'm not trying to imply anything.
01:09:35Something isn't adding up in college.
01:09:37What do you want to imply, Eva? You can trust me.
01:09:41We're going to be family after all.
01:09:42Why did you have a better engagement?
01:09:45Maybe John told me.
01:09:47No, we didn't.
01:09:51Let go of me!
01:09:52Stop it, please. Listen.
01:09:54Listen.
01:09:55No!
01:09:56No!
01:09:57No!
01:10:02Don't say anything. Keep your mouth shut.
01:10:04Stop!
01:10:11Hello, brother.
01:10:13No, I don't know where she is.
01:10:16That mistake was a mistake.
01:10:18Well, I'm out of town right now.
01:10:26Sorry I had something in my throat.
01:10:28Well, wherever she is, I'm sure she'll be home soon.
01:10:37What do you want? Why are you doing this?
01:10:40Have I figured that one out yet?
01:10:42Well, I do know he's not my brother would do anything for you.
01:10:45Maybe I want to see him suffer.
01:10:47What did you do with Anna?
01:10:48Stop it, fucking stupid questions!
01:11:02You be a good little girl now, don't fucking move. I'll pull a bullet in your head!
01:11:08I won't see anything.
01:11:09Maybe I'll be fucking serious.
01:11:12Whatever it is you want, I'll do it. Just...
01:11:15Whatever it is you want, I'll do it.
01:11:20Don't do anything stupid, otherwise I'll send you to meet your mother.
01:11:23What did you just say?
01:11:25What about my mother?
01:11:27Oops, did I say something?
01:11:30Hey!
01:11:31Do you know how to drive a car?
01:11:33Get in the driver's seat now.
01:11:42Yes, sir, I understand. But this is an emergency.
01:11:45Mr. Blackthorn would appreciate it if the matter was dealt with urgently.
01:11:51I understand.
01:11:52I understand.
01:11:56Is there any news yet?
01:11:59I'm afraid not.
01:12:00The commissioner insists that we have to wait at least 48 hours before we can declare her missing.
01:12:04Damn it. It's the same thing they told me.
01:12:08Can't they even pretend to care?
01:12:10Let me try calling Jack again.
01:12:13He isn't answering.
01:12:15I don't know what's wrong with him.
01:12:16First he sends me those cryptic text messages and now he's not answering my calls.
01:12:22Maybe he'll answer yours.
01:12:24I doubt it, but I can try just in case.
01:12:35This might be bad timing, but Jack came to see me the other day.
01:12:39He wanted to contest your father's will.
01:12:41He was ready to sue you.
01:12:45What?
01:12:46What do you mean he was ready to sue me?
01:12:48He believed Anna tricked your father into giving her money.
01:12:51And he wanted to prove that that may have impacted the world.
01:12:56That's preposterous.
01:12:57Why wasn't I told about this earlier?
01:12:59I didn't think it was important because I clarified to Jack that he was misguided.
01:13:03I should have been informed immediately.
01:13:05You're meant to be impartial, remember?
01:13:16Hello, Johnny boy.
01:13:18Frankie.
01:13:19What a great evening this is tonight, isn't it?
01:13:22Jack.
01:13:23You're so surprised, are you?
01:13:24Bet you didn't see this one coming out, did ya?
01:13:26Huh?
01:13:28Keeping where I can see him now.
01:13:29You don't have to do this, Jack.
01:13:32No, I've done something really stupid.
01:13:35I can't take it back now.
01:13:37What did you do?
01:13:38We can work this out, just the two of us.
01:13:41You did something to my mother.
01:13:42No.
01:13:42Is it not right, Jack?
01:13:44Shut up.
01:13:44You know what I'm talking about.
01:13:49I found Anna's earring in my apartment, and then he threatened to shoot me.
01:13:55No, no, no.
01:13:56It's an accident.
01:13:58How do you mean to die?
01:14:00How do you mean to kill her?
01:14:01No!
01:14:07It's okay.
01:14:08Like you said, it was just an accident.
01:14:11We can work this out together.
01:14:13I'm sorry, Anna.
01:14:15I didn't mean to come this way.
01:14:17I don't know what I'm doing anymore.
01:14:19It's okay, brother.
01:14:20We can work this out, just the two of us, before all this craziness happened.
01:14:27No, it's not again! You mad at my mother!
01:14:30Eva, no!
