Short filmTranscript
00:10Tonight is the engagement of the Blackwells and the Williams, the richest family marrying
00:14the most powerful.
00:25Ma'am, your invitation, please.
00:31I don't have one.
00:32Then you should know this isn't a place for strangers.
00:34This event's private.
00:38Go tell Marcus.
00:40Athena is here.
00:42You think you're worthy of seeing Mr. Blackwell?
00:46We're here to take back what belongs to us.
00:48What?
00:49You don't need to know.
00:53Lift your head.
00:55Let me get a good look.
01:00Too skinny.
01:01Not his type.
01:03You want to see him, then take off that dress.
01:05Do you have any idea who is inside?
01:07Then enlighten me.
01:09What kind of woman is hiding in there?
01:19My arm.
01:27Marcus already knows why I'm here.
01:33Marcus, tomorrow our children finally get engaged.
01:37I've waited a long time for this.
01:39So have I, my friend.
01:41This match is perfect for both our families.
01:43Marcus!
01:45Mr. Marcus, there's a woman at the entrance.
01:47I don't know how, but my arm just snapped.
01:52She said her name is Hina.
01:59Oh my god, she wouldn't be Marcus' lover, would she?
02:03Well, well, this should be good.
02:13Oh!
02:22Madam, at last, you've returned.
02:32Gosh, who is she?
02:33Mr. Blackwell actually kneels to her.
02:35I've never seen Marcus bow to anyone.
02:37Descendant of House Blacklet.
02:41Do you know why I've returned?
02:44Of course, my lady.
02:47This way.
02:53Madam, 5,000 years ago, you granted my ancestor, Ossic Blackwell, the Eye of Foresight.
02:59Through its power, House Blackned saw what others could not, and built its empire.
03:055,000 years ago, demons invaded the human world.
03:09By Zeus' command, I descended to fight for mankind.
03:13This way, Ossic Blackwell, the Eye of Foresight.
03:40Black William, I grant you my heart, never no defeat.
03:46Kethwood, I grant you my right hand, wield endless wealth.
03:52Humanity survives this war. Use my gifts to protect your people.
03:57In 5,000 years, when mankind has grown strong, I will return for what is mine.
04:04Madam, House Balkian has never forgotten your blessing.
04:07After my son's engagement tonight, personally return the Eye of Foresight to you.
04:13You would surrender it willingly? Without the Eye, your house will crumble.
04:17Everything my family possesses was granted by you.
04:20For my power to return, its holder must surrender it willingly.
04:23You've chosen wisely. Go, prepare for the celebration.
04:28Yes, Madam. A quiet room has been prepared for you overlooking the bay.
04:33Please, get some rest.
04:37Hmm.
04:39Hmm.
04:48Let's go.
05:19Men always want what they can't see.
05:24Stop right there. This is Madam's private room. Leave. Now.
05:30You're pretty, too. Just not nearly as exciting.
05:36Well, who's this sweet little kitten? Bathing blindfolded? Shy? Or just trying to drive men crazy?
05:44Leave.
05:45Don't be so cold. This house, this island, it'll all be mine someday. I'm curious. What do your eyes look
05:52like under that veil? Why hide them? Too ugly to show? Or too beautiful to handle?
06:05So, honey. Are you my father's mistress? Did he want to see under that veil, too?
06:11If I were you, I'd leave while I still could.
06:15Dressing like this, isn't that just begging for attention? You're way more fun than that boring little Miss William. My
06:20dad's too old for you, anyway. Come on, baby. Let me take that thing off. You'll thank me later.
06:25Stay away from my lady.
06:28What, you want to join, too? I'm fine with a threesome.
06:32Shut your mouth.
06:34Ah, fuck! Do you have any idea who I am?
06:38Because you're Marcus's son, I'll spare you once. There won't be a second time.
06:43You dare reject me? I'll make you regret it! I'll rip that stupid thing off and see what kind of
06:48freak you really are!
06:49Stop!
06:52You dare hit my son?
06:56So you're the woman who made Marcus kneel?
07:00Mom.
07:01She tried seducing Dad, then threw herself at me. When I rejected her, she snapped.
07:06Kneel and apologize to my son. Now!
07:09Even the gods of Olympus are unworthy of my kneeling. Mortals, even less so.
07:16Hiding behind a veil? Too ashamed to show your face?
07:22Mortals are not meant to look into Madam's eyes.
07:25Good. Then I'll see for myself what's so damn special about her eyes.
07:31Watch your tongue. Madam is beyond your disrespect.
07:34Fine. I'll start with you, then!
07:38You think you're worthy?
07:53You think I'm putting on an act?
07:55What did you do?
07:57Then watch closely. That chandelier will fall in three seconds.
08:02Ridiculous. That chandelier was crafted in Venice. It's been hanging there for 60 years.
08:11How is this? That's impossible!
08:14This has to be witchcraft. Mom, you're just letting her pull this shit in our house?
08:18Of course not!
08:21Drag these two bitches out and beat them bloody.
08:25Let everyone see what happens when they defy me!
08:32You will regret this.
08:34Get the hell out of the way!
08:44Stop! Right now!
08:45Get away from her! Have you all lost your mind?
08:48Marcus!
08:49You slapped me?
08:53Madam, forgive my foolish family.
08:56My dad, have you lost your mind?
08:57One day I'll control both the Blackwell and William families.
09:00The richest, most powerful man in the world.
09:02Who the hell is she?
09:03Neil! Apologize to Athena!
09:05No way.
09:06Tonight I'm seeing what's really under that veil.
09:26There will be no future for the most powerful man in the world.
09:30Tomorrow, you die.
09:39What did you do to my son?!
09:43Mom.
09:45She said I'm going to die.
09:48Don't listen to her.
09:49You will be fine.
09:51Madam, please.
09:52Tell me what I should do.
09:54He's my only child.
09:56Only one way.
09:58Cancel the engagement.
09:59I knew it.
10:01You came here to destroy this engagement.
10:03You are going to steal everything from the Blackwells!
10:06Helena, shut up!
10:08Hiding behind that veil and pretending to be some goddess?
10:11You're a fraud!
10:18Let's see what color your blood is.
10:20Madam!
10:25How dare you.
10:34My face!
10:37You ruined my face!
10:40You did this to yourself.
10:43You bitch!
10:45Tonight I'm finding out what you really are!
10:47No!
10:48You'll be punished.
10:53Punishment?
10:55I'd like to see what she can do to me!
10:59I'd like to see what she can do to me!
11:03Stop!
11:05Let me go!
11:07Everything the Blacklays have, our wealth, status, centuries of power, came from the eye of foresight Madam granted us.
11:14What the hell are you talking about?
11:16The power inside that crest was given to my ancestor by Madam 5,000 years ago!
11:20Without it, we're nothing!
11:22I don't believe you!
11:24She's nothing but some cheap mistress!
11:27Mom, I saw myself dead at the wedding.
11:30Exactly!
11:31Do you want our son dead?
11:36Why is she trying to kill my son?
11:39Why did she ruin my face?
11:41I never wished harm upon any of you.
11:44Your greed brought this upon yourselves.
11:47Liar!
11:48I'm tearing that veil off tonight!
11:52Don't!
11:53You'll regret this!
11:54Let go!
11:54Mortal eyes cannot behold a god!
11:56Then I'll look with my own eyes!
12:00No!
12:05I'm perfectly fine!
12:07She's a fraud!
12:08There's no god, no curse!
12:10Ten seconds remain.
12:20No! No!
12:24Mom! Your face!
12:25My face!
12:26What happened to my face?!
12:28This is the price of your arrogance.
12:36How did this happen?
12:42This is the price of your arrogance.
12:47How did this happen?
12:49Somebody get a doctor!
12:56Her cells are deteriorating rapidly.
12:59I'm afraid there's nothing we can do.
13:01What do you mean you can't?!
13:02You're the best doctor in town!
13:07This is beyond me.
13:09Find another way.
13:15That woman, she's not human.
13:17Looks like she really can see the future.
13:22No mortal looks upon a god.
13:24I warned you.
13:25You tore off my veil.
13:26Not Cable Price.
13:28It was just a veil!
13:29I wasn't trying to hurt anyone!
13:30Why are you doing this to me?!
13:32Idiot!
13:33You embarrassed me in front of everyone.
13:35Stay away from her, or no one will be able to save you.
13:40Please, fix me!
13:42I was wrong!
13:44Do you really?
13:47I shouldn't have crossed you.
13:49I shouldn't have treated you that way.
13:51I can restore your face.
13:53But tonight will leave a permanent mark.
14:07What's this?!
14:09Refuse to repent, and it will choke you to death.
14:12My wife is unwell. Take her back to her room.
14:16Madam, she won't trouble you again.
14:18May the engagement proceed.
14:20I swear on my family's name, the relic will be returned.
14:22You should know. My prophecies never fail.
14:25Proceed if you must. I will not stop you.
14:27You ruined my mother's face, and now you want me to cancel the engagement?!
14:30Not a chance!
14:34You want to end up like your mother?
14:38This is my engagement, Trent. I call the shots.
14:41Detective Kane Hawkes is here, personally.
14:43Let's see who tries anything tonight.
14:45Kane Hawke? The detective who cracked that serial case alone?
14:48I hear he never fails.
14:50Even the mob stays clear of him. If he's here, we're safe.
15:08Every exit is covered. Food's been rechecked.
15:11Tonight, nothing gets through.
15:15But the Williams are here, Dad. Let's go greet them.
15:21Fine. Let's go.
15:25Good. Let's see who's got the nerve to try something right under my nose.
15:30It won't matter.
15:32But try.
15:38Since you're so sure, say it.
15:40How does Ethan die?
15:41If you can't answer, why should anyone believe you?
15:44Fate is sealed. You don't need to believe.
15:47You only need to watch.
15:49I need a drink after this.
15:51See? Still alive. Forget the prophecy.
15:54Forget the hourglass.
15:56I own tonight.
15:59Don't say that.
15:59What? You believe that witch stuff too?
16:05Grab my hands! Don't let go!
16:09Kane! Hold on!
16:16That was insane! It's over! Ethan's safe!
16:21The railing's rusted through. Mr. Blackhand, this place isn't up to code. As long as he's okay. I'll have it
16:28fixed now.
16:30Luck's on my side.
16:32After this, you'll be begging me on your knees.
16:38I'm going to change! Best champagne ready when I'm back! The night's not over!
16:43Looks like I gave you too much credit. Ethan's alive. Your prophecy's dead.
16:46That was an accident, nothing more. My prophecy does not fail.
16:50Doesn't matter. Once the ceremony ends, I'll find out who exactly you are.
16:58Blood! There's blood!
17:18No! My son! Someone help me!
17:25The prophecy. It actually came true.
17:31You again! You monster! Why can't you just leave us alone?
17:36Give me my son back!
17:41How did you get out?
17:43You're defending her? No one touched that room.
17:46If she didn't curse him, how did he die?
17:49Aren't you a detective? Arrest her!
17:53And enough! Lock this place down. Seal every exit. Nobody leaves.
18:00Human or not, I won't let them get away.
18:07I checked your records. No birth certificate, no passport, no social security number, no entry on record, nothing.
18:14Because I don't belong here.
18:16Fine, goddess. How did Ethan die? What did you do to him?
18:21I only foresees. I don't kill.
18:26Then how did you know the exact time? Or do you have an accomplice?
18:31Because I see everything. Past, present, future. No fate is hidden from me.
18:36That's convenient. If you see everything, why didn't you stop it?
18:39Mortals carry their own sins. I judge. I don't save.
18:43Saying it doesn't make it true, you really think I can't make you talk?
18:46Every day, you asked yourself the same question.
18:49If you hadn't gone to play ball, if you'd just pilt be alive?
18:55How do you know that?
18:57I told you. I see.
18:59You're asking for death!
19:10Annie? Is that you?
19:15Cain, I knew I'd see you again.
19:17It was my fault. I should have been there to pick you up.
19:22Don't cry, Cain. You're the best brother ever.
19:25No! No!
19:32What did you do?
19:33She's my sister! What did you do to her?
19:36She's always been here, in your heart.
19:39I only let you see her.
19:44Bring her back.
19:45Let me hear her voice just one more time.
19:48You saw what you needed.
19:49Do you believe me now?
19:53Clever trick.
19:54Hypnosis?
19:55Or some kind of hallucination?
19:57Everything has a scientific explanation.
19:59Everything.
20:00You made me see my sister, I'll give you that.
20:03But that's not a miracle.
20:05Keep telling yourself that.
20:07Sir, Tox is back.
20:08We found an unknown neurotoxin in the victim.
20:10No injection marks.
20:14What about the cameras?
20:15We checked.
20:17The feed went dark for two hours, right around the engagement.
20:19No sign of tampering.
20:21No evidence.
20:23No cameras.
20:24The killer planned this.
20:25So how do you poison a man in a locked room?
20:28If you're really that powerful?
20:30Tell me who did it.
20:32Of course I do.
20:33And Ethan can tell you himself.
20:40He's dead.
20:42Death is simply the soul leaving the body.
20:44As long as the body remains, I can bring him back.
20:48Briefly.
20:49Tell me.
20:50I need the truth.
20:51Mortal quarrels mean nothing to me.
20:54Neither does the truth.
20:55You want answers.
20:57There is one condition.
21:02What?
21:03From now on, you are mine.
21:05Absolute faith.
21:07Absolute obedience.
21:08You're really doing this right now?
21:10Think fast.
21:11Marcus and the Williams are waiting.
21:12And if I change my mind?
21:15You won't.
21:17You want justice too badly.
21:20Fine.
21:22Deal.
21:26Leave thy courage.
21:34You actually did it.
21:36The killer will reveal themselves soon enough.
21:43Ethan!
21:44My poor boy!
21:46He's alive?
21:47Calm down!
21:48Ethan.
21:52Ethan.
21:54Detective, did you find anything?
21:57It was her.
21:58I knew it.
21:59She's been trying to destroy us all along.
22:01She's here to find the killer.
22:03What?
22:03What did she promise you?
22:05Are you a detective or her accomplice?
22:07Who are you?
22:07Did you kill my fiancé?
22:09Good.
22:10Then let Ethan speak.
22:22Stop!
22:23Stop right there!
22:25Detective, tonight has been insane enough.
22:28My daughter just watched her fiancé die.
22:30And now you're letting some stranger desecrate his body?
22:33Sir, I need you to cooperate.
22:33I'm done here!
22:34Sir, I'm calling off the engagement.
22:38We're leaving.
22:38Now.
22:40Felix, please.
22:41Our families are business partners.
22:43Our son is dead, and you're worried about business!
22:46What do you know?
22:47Where do you think the jewels around your neck come from?
22:49I just want my son back.
22:53Sir, this is a murder.
22:54You don't want to know who did it?
22:58Dad, I want to know who killed Ethan.
23:03Fine.
23:04But if anything feels off, we're out.
23:08You'll go to hell!
23:24You'll go to hell!
23:26Ethan, it's Mom!
23:29Look at me!
23:34Son!
23:35What are you doing?
23:37Ethan Blackwell.
23:39Who killed you?
23:44You.
23:52No, that's insane!
24:00I'm your father!
24:02It was her!
24:03She did this to you!
24:04It was her!
24:05She cursed you!
24:06She did this!
24:07Why, father, why did you give me that drink?
24:11Marcus, say something!
24:12Tell him you didn't do it!
24:14He is gone.
24:20Ethan, wake up!
24:22Mom's here, wake up!
24:28Marcus, your own son just pointed at you.
24:33Now let me tell you exactly how you did it.
24:36The autopsy found a rare neurotoxin.
24:40So you dosed him in advance.
24:49Dad, what's up?
24:53Big night, have a drink.
24:56Thanks, Dad.
25:02Every drink was under strict watch.
25:04But you used the one person he trusted most.
25:08His own father.
25:09You handed him that poison drink yourself.
25:13You thought it was flawless.
25:15You didn't think he'd come back and point you out, did you?
25:20Marcus, anything to say?
25:24You're using my son's body to frame my husband!
25:27What the hell do you want from us?
25:29Enough!
25:30What did our family ever do to you?
25:31Killing my son wasn't enough.
25:33Now I want to destroy my husband!
25:37My husband got on his knees for you.
25:39He obeyed every word.
25:41What more do you want?
25:44Madden, I don't understand any of this.
25:46Ethan was my only son.
25:47His engagement day, why would I ever harm him?
25:50Detective, you saw it yourself.
25:52I cooperated with your investigation from the very beginning.
25:55And I even agreed to let her manipulate my son.
25:58What did my trust get me?
26:01What's unclear?
26:03Ethan named his father.
26:04Isn't that enough?
26:05Felix, 20 years.
26:07We've known each other 20 years.
26:09Marcus gave everything to his family.
26:10Please, say something!
26:13But Ethan just said it was...
26:14That was witchcraft.
26:16Manipulation.
26:17He's dead.
26:18Dead men don't talk.
26:19And why would Marcus ever kill his own son?
26:22Helena, are you absolutely certain Ethan was your son?
26:26Your biological son?
26:27What is that supposed to mean?
26:29I'm his mother.
26:30I gave birth to him.
26:31How dare you insult me?
26:33I'm just asking.
26:34Are you sure?
26:37Marcus.
26:38What is she saying?
26:41Marcus, is that true?
26:42My prophecies do not fail.
26:44As for why Marcus killed his own son,
26:47the answer lies 25 years in the past.
26:5125 years ago?
26:53Helena, how did this engagement begin?
26:56Because we're both from the finest families.
26:59And our children happen to be born on the same day.
27:02Yes.
27:03We took it as fate.
27:05And so we proposed the match.
27:1125 years ago, two babies, babies were born in the same hospital.
27:29That night, Marcus abandoned his own daughter.
27:32She became the Williams era.
27:36Marcus, look.
27:38Doesn't he like me, Marcus?
27:41He does.
27:42He's our son.
27:43The boy went home with the Black Lails.
27:46They named him Ethan.
27:51Lies.
27:52Mom, what is she saying?
27:54Am I not your daughter?
27:56You're saying there's something wrong with our bloodline?
27:58That's ridiculous.
28:00Marcus would never do that.
28:01We had everything.
28:02Why would he?
28:03Really?
28:03Your real daughter is the Williams' only heir now.
28:06One switch.
28:07And his own blood herits everything the Williams have.
28:10You tell me.
28:11Would Marcus risk it?
28:12Marcus, say something.
28:15I raised him.
28:16How is he not my son?
28:17This is all made up.
28:20You think you can take down the Black Lails with something this ridiculous?
28:23Not a chance.
28:24No proof.
28:25No judgment.
28:27You planned it.
28:28You messed with the railing.
28:29Made it look like an accident.
28:31When the fall failed, you poisoned him.
28:36Sir, we got the family doctor statement and the DNA report.
28:42Marcus Blackley.
28:43Your doctor confessed.
28:44You paid him to buy a new neurotoxin on the black market.
28:47Same compound that killed Ethan.
28:49DNA results confirm.
28:50Ethan shared no blood with you.
28:52His match to Felix William?
28:5499.97%.
29:00How can this be?
29:06You took my daughter from me!
29:08You made me raise someone else's child for 25 years!
29:12Answer me!
29:17Enough.
29:20Yes, I switched them.
29:23And I killed Ethan.
29:27I don't regret a thing.
29:30Everything I did was for this family.
29:33With or without divine power, the Black Lail name stays on top.
29:39Madam.
29:40For centuries, the Black Lail family used the eye to stay ahead to build its wealth.
29:45But I always feared the day you would take that power back.
29:49Without it, the Black Lail family would fall.
29:53I could not allow that.
29:57My daughter had to have it all.
30:02Back then, I saw the Williams' future.
30:05Political power.
30:07Endless wealth.
30:09So I made the switch.
30:11Even if your power were taken back one day, she would still have everything.
30:15No!
30:16I'm not your daughter.
30:18I'm a William!
30:19Ara was just your excuse.
30:20Marcus, everything you did was for yourself.
30:23Nothing more than greed.
30:25I didn't see that coming.
30:26The Williams pushing for a marriage.
30:28And Ethan.
30:29He was starting to look like Felix.
30:33I couldn't let it unravel.
30:34Not the Williams deal.
30:36Not 25 years of work.
30:38So Ethan had to go.
30:41I hate you.
30:4325.
30:45I never have years doubted.
30:47I don't care whose blood he was.
30:49He was my son.
30:51Hate me if you want.
30:53You think I care?
30:54Anything else?
31:03Madam, you think you've won?
31:06The eye is still in me.
31:08And I am its master now.
31:11Not left!
31:13For centuries, the Black Lays relied on it.
31:15You can't just take it away!
31:18I'm warning you.
31:19Stop.
31:20Go ahead, detective.
31:22Your bullets can't touch me!
31:23Me!
31:24You're only its keeper.
31:26Never its master.
31:28You saw the future.
31:30Just not your own ending.
31:32No!
31:32Eye of foresight.
31:34Return to me.
31:38Your crimes will be judged by mortal law.
31:41Your family will reap what you have sown.
31:46Marcus Blackwing.
31:47You're under arrest for the murder of Ethan Blackwing.
31:54Hara.
31:56Hara.
31:56Stop!
31:57Stay away from me!
31:58Don't touch me!
31:59You're my mother.
32:00I can't accept this.
32:01My own parents.
32:02This cruel.
32:03This heartless.
32:04I just can't.
32:05What happened tonight will be settled in court.
32:08And you stay away from my daughter.
32:10Forever.
32:11Let's go.
32:15Don't come looking for me again.
32:27Ethan.
32:28I'm sorry.
32:31Between us, it is done.
32:45Wait.
32:46Where are you going now?
32:48I still have two things to reclaim.
32:51What things?
32:53That is not your concern, mortal.
33:03You're still following me.
33:05Marcus is in custody.
33:06Helen's in the hospital.
33:07The Williams are gone.
33:08It's over.
33:09For me, it ended long ago.
33:11Five thousand years ago, I gave my power to humanity.
33:14Protect justice.
33:15I was wrong.
33:16Power only fed their greed.
33:17It turned into monsters.
33:19You seem disappointed in humanity.
33:21Then why help me?
33:22Because you still fight for truth and justice.
33:25Even for people you've never met.
33:30I'm coming with you.
33:32I told you.
33:33This isn't your business.
33:34Ten years as a detective, I've seen lies, betrayal, cruelty.
33:38I thought I could explain everything until I met you.
33:41Now, I need to see for myself just how unchangeable fate really is.
33:48Get on.
34:05The spear of war stays with me.
34:08What's that red light?
34:09The second relic.
34:10The spear of war.
34:12It's calling me.
34:14Who has it?
34:16You'll see.
34:18President Adrian William fainted during a live speech just now.
34:22Madam.
34:22Suspected heart attack.
34:23Madam, our purpose this time.
34:24My septum is with the president.
34:26Time to get it back.
34:30The presidential palace area is locked down.
34:32No one gets in without official approval.
34:40Interpol, we have an urgent matter and need to take this lady to see the president.
34:44Interpol, this isn't your territory.
34:46Go back.
34:47President Adrian is waiting for her.
34:48The president is waiting for this woman?
34:50Sure he is.
34:51Then I'm holding a UN General Assembly.
34:53Back off.
34:53Don't disrupt our mission.
34:55Stop blabbering.
34:56You can't afford to waste my time.
35:02Speaker Smith.
35:03These strangers are acting crazy, demanding to see the president.
35:06I'll chase them off right away.
35:07Who are you?
35:09I'm here to save Adrian's life and get my stuff back.
35:12You can save the president?
35:18What happened to your leg?
35:20A fire broke out at a charity event some time ago.
35:22Speaker Smith saved trapped kids and hasn't been able to walk since.
35:25Enough.
35:25Shut up.
35:30Stand up.
35:33This is a miracle.
35:35You're no ordinary person.
35:38Take me to Adrian.
35:39They're medical consultants I invited.
35:43Speeder Smith, I'm afraid.
35:45I'll take the fall if anything goes wrong.
35:51Dad!
35:52Dad!
35:53Dad!
35:54My father's having a heart attack.
35:55Somebody help!
35:56This is Grayson William, governor of New York and the president's son.
35:58He does have a history of heart disease.
36:00Grayson, he's lying.
36:01This isn't a heart attack.
36:01He's been poisoned.
36:03He only has 24 hours left to live.
36:06Our president collapsed in front of the whole nation.
36:08Right now, I'm not a governor, just a son praying for him to wake up with all of you.
36:14That's all for now.
36:15Please.
36:16Speaker Smith, you shouldn't have brought outsiders here.
36:19My father's condition is critical.
36:20Any disturbance could kill him.
36:22This is Athena.
36:23She might be able to save the president.
36:25She-
36:25Dr. Harold Lewis is the world's top cardiologist and the head of the president's medical team.
36:29He's already made the best treatment plan.
36:31No unknown outsider gets to meddle here.
36:35The medicine Harold is using won't work.
36:37I'm his only shot.
36:40Ridiculous.
36:41Dr. Lewis has saved three presidents.
36:43Who are you to question him?
36:48See?
36:48He's the only one who can save my father.
36:51Now get out of here.
36:56Athena.
36:58Athena.
36:59Everything is under control.
37:01The president's spitting blood is a normal drug reaction.
37:04And you?
37:05Which medical school did you come from?
37:07How dare you question my diagnosis?
37:08I never went to medical school, but I've healed people far more eminent than a president.
37:15I can vouch for her.
37:16She cured my leg in just one minute.
37:18Funny.
37:19I've always suspected you were faking being lame.
37:21You're hoping my father dies so you can take his place in the Oval Office, aren't you?
37:25That's not true.
37:25I just want to keep Adrian alive.
37:28I just want to keep Adrian alive.
37:28Surgery's tonight.
37:29Get him awake in 24 hours.
37:30I'll own up in front of everyone and hang up my medical license forever.
37:34Count me in.
37:35Speaker Smith, forfeit your campaign if you lose and get on live TV to beg my forgiveness.
37:39How can you gamble with Adrian's life?
37:41If any random woman can treat the president freely, what becomes of Nash National Sec-
37:47Fine.
37:4824 hours.
37:56Athena.
37:57There's something fishy about Harold.
37:59You noticed it too.
38:02I'll dig into his background and lab procurement records.
38:07There's something more important for you, Iris, to handle.
38:16She's the one who solved the Blacksdale case.
38:19She might really have figured out something.
38:21Impossible.
38:22The toxin I developed can't be detected anywhere on Earth.
38:26What could a fraud like her possibly know?
38:29But what if she did find out?
38:32Even if she did, she'll never find an antidote in time.
38:43Governor, your approval rating has hit 73-3.
38:46Our team is stepping up promotions non-stop.
38:49Good job.
38:51See this, Harold?
38:52Make sure my father dies during the surgery tonight.
38:55The public's sympathy will bleed directly into my poll numbers.
38:58Every vote will go to me, the most stricken and yet the most steadfast son.
39:03Don't worry, Governor.
39:04The surgery will be foolproof.
39:09Perfect.
39:11Hold on.
39:13You want into the operating room?
39:14Answer me first.
39:16What's your treatment plan?
39:17Are you using any medication?
39:21I don't need any medicine.
39:22So you have no plan at all?
39:25Governor, as the president's chief medical advisor, I suggest we keep this unqualified
39:29woman away from the president, so you have no plan at all.
39:33Governor, as the president's chief medical advisor, I suggest we keep this unqualified
39:37woman away from the president.
39:39You heard him.
39:40Ethan, if you force your way in, I'll arrest you for endangering national security.
39:45I dare you.
39:48Grayson, you have no right to do this.
39:51You promised us 24 hours.
39:53With the president unconscious, my authority as both his son and the New York governor
39:57is absolute.
39:58My word is final.
40:00I only promised you 24 hours.
40:02Never said you could enter the operating room.
40:23The president's VP is tanking.
40:25We're losing rhythm.
40:28Inject epinonephrine.
40:29Grab the defibrillator.
40:31His vitals keep dropping.
40:33All rescue efforts are failing.
40:39We've tried everything.
40:41There's nothing more we could do.
40:42I'm deeply sorry, governor.
40:44We need to prepare for the worst.
40:46No!
40:47No!
40:47Athena, please do something!
40:52Stand down.
40:53No entry to the operating room.
40:55Stand aside.
40:56I'm here to save Adrian.
41:02The president's as good as dead.
41:04Let her go in.
41:05We'll pin the crime on this fraud.
41:09Go ahead.
41:10Just don't forget our bet.
41:13Keep playing your games.
41:14But no secret escapes divine eyes.
41:17Deceive me, and you will be punished.
41:20Quit rambling.
41:22Let's see what you're capable of.
41:40My scepter holds great power, but never use it to feed your greed.
41:46I swear on my blood.
41:47Punish me if I break this vow.
41:52Rest now.
41:53The corruption ends here.
42:07Athena.
42:11How is he?
42:12He's stable.
42:13Just far too, too weak to wake up for now.
42:22Dad, can you hear me?
42:27Athena, stop lying.
42:29What did you do to my father?
42:31This is obvious, Max Tredist.
42:32You'll pay dearly if anything happens to the president.
42:35I've got nothing to say to you.
42:36The 24 hours aren't up.
42:38Once Adrian's awake, he'll remind you just who you're talking to.
42:41Give him nutrient fluid.
42:43He needs to regain his strength.
42:45What did she do?
42:47His vital signs are bouncing back.
42:49He might really wake up.
42:50No way.
42:50He can't wake up or all my plans are ruined.
42:53Harold, you useless fool.
42:55Need I remind you, your family's in Florida.
42:57I have one last shot of concentrated toxin.
42:59It'll stop his heart in 30 minutes.
43:01No way to revive him.
43:02I'm going live with a vigil tonight.
43:04I'll announce his passing when my approval rating hits the peak.
43:07I'll be the president.
43:08Not even a god can stop me.
43:14Everyone, I have heartbreaking news.
43:16Ever since Speaker Smith brought this lady, Athena, to treat my father, his condition has
43:20only gotten worse.
43:22Athena, what's your response to the governor?
43:24What are you really after here?
43:26Do you have a medical license?
43:27What drugs did you give the president?
43:30I gave him no medicine.
43:32I gave him time.
43:36Did Mally bring you here to save my father or to kill him so she can take his position?
43:40Remember, the 24 hours aren't up yet.
43:44You're just stalling.
43:46Seize her!
43:49She's under my protection.
43:51Federal law forbids detaining anyone without formal charges.
43:54Sir, we're live on air.
43:55Please stay calm.
43:58Fine.
43:59I'll wait until the time runs out.
44:01Let the whole nation see you go down in flames.
44:04I'll stream a national vigil tonight and pray for my father with all citizens.
44:15Sorry, Mr. President.
44:16Your son ordered this.
44:21Governor, the final dose injected.
44:2330 minutes and his heart stops beating.
44:26Everyone online is calling you a fraud.
44:28And Congress is questioning me, too.
44:30What do we do now?
44:31You've seen my power, so don't worry.
44:33I never seek others' approval anyway.
44:35Why not?
44:36The truth doesn't need people to believe it.
44:39It only needs to come to light.
44:41My beloved father fights against illness.
44:44Let us all pray for a miracle.
44:46He devoted his life to this country.
44:48And I will lead it toward a bright future, just as he did.
44:54Why is he still breathing?
44:56There's no way my drug failed.
44:59I'm really waking up.
45:01Grayson won't spare me.
45:02I'm already this far in.
45:06Everything I've built, I can't let it all fall apart here.
45:10Stop!
45:13Looking for this?
45:28Grayson, seems like you're dying to be president.
45:31Then I'll give you a proper coronation gift.
45:39Once the surgery is done and dad's gone, the White House is mine.
45:44No one will suspect us.
45:45Tests will only show he died from overwork.
45:48Beyond rescue.
45:49Ridiculous.
45:49That Athena actually bet against me like she's some god?
45:52We've spent years plotting this.
45:54And that bitch, Molly, she's delusional to even compete with me.
45:58Screw them.
45:58To the future president.
46:02Murderer!
46:03He's the murderer!
46:04He's the murderer!
46:05He was the president!
46:06Did he get killed?
46:07Step down, Grayson!
46:08Step down!
46:09Step down!
46:10This is all fake.
46:11She killed my father and framed me.
46:13She's the real culprit!
46:15I'd never forge evidence.
46:16Not like you, who schemed to kill your own father for power.
46:19What are you so scared of, Grayson?
46:22Where's Harold?
46:23Bring him out!
46:24He'll testify for me!
46:27He's right here.
46:28I've brought Harold.
46:30Governor, save me!
46:32You yelled my family hostage!
46:34I had no choice but to poison him!
46:36You wanted him dead so you could take over!
46:38Bullshit!
46:38I know nothing!
46:39This is all you're doing!
46:41Remember the bet you made?
46:42Time to keep your promise.
46:43Your lies and crimes end here.
46:46This can't be.
46:47Dad was supposed to be dead.
46:49Sorry to disappoint you.
46:50I'm still alive.
46:55Grayson, how could you do this?
46:57Kill your own father just for power?
46:59Madam, I knew you'd come.
47:01I knew.
47:02I come when the time is right.
47:04Look at you.
47:05Your years have caught up.
47:07Good grief.
47:08The president's bowing to her.
47:10Who on earth is she?
47:11No way.
47:12This can't be.
47:13I told you.
47:14No secret escapes divine eyes.
47:17Bullshit!
47:18I told Harold to inject!
47:21He confessed!
47:23He made Harold poison the president!
47:26Murderer!
47:27He's the murderer!
47:29Murderer!
47:30He's the murderer!
47:35The toxin was swapped out for saline long ago.
47:39You two started this bet.
47:41You're not backing out now, are you?
47:43You ungrateful rest.
47:45Apologize now.
47:48No way!
47:53I heard every word while I was unconscious.
47:56You slipped slow poison into my daily vitamins.
47:59All those emergency treatments were just a show to win votes.
48:02As a father, this is my greatest sorrow.
48:04But as president, I owe the people the truth.
48:13As president, I hereby declare, Grayson Wilmium plotted to kill the sitting president and seize
48:19power.
48:20Dr. Harold Lewis made illegal poisons and aided in this murder.
48:24The proof is undeniable.
48:26Arrest him right now.
48:30You have the right to remain science.
48:32Anything you say at hand will be used, used against you in court.
48:34Dad!
48:34Dad!
48:35Who is she?
48:36One word!
48:37And she's destroyed everything!
48:38Why?
48:39I am the god your four brothers swore to serve.
48:44A god?
48:45Then I'll kill you first!
48:55Human, your bullets can't harm a god, nor those under my protection.
49:03Why shield me?
49:04Madam, you saved my life and saved this nation's future.
49:08I owe you everything.
49:09And I owe this country far more than I ever realized.
49:12A god, so what?
49:14Dad, your soft policies are dragging this country down.
49:18We need harsh moves to boost the economy, a stronger military to rule the world.
49:23Progress demands sacrifices.
49:25And you're the one holding us back!
49:27Your choices will only leave this nation suffering.
49:29I gave your forefather the septal to keep them grounded in principle.
49:33Yet power has corrupted you.
49:35Your conscience is gone.
49:36And all you crave is power by any means.
49:39What's the point now?
49:40It's all over.
49:41All of it.
49:46Centuries ago, my forefather received this scepter from you and swore to guard the people.
49:51My family upheld that oath for generations, only for my own son to break it.
49:56This is my failing and my family's disgrace.
50:00Today, the William family returns your scepter.
50:03Please forgive our sins.
50:24Rise, Adrian.
50:26You have nothing to repent for.
50:28You never broke your oath.
50:29Madam, I'm old.
50:31This ordeal has left me frail.
50:32I've long wondered if I'd passed away, who would lead this country.
50:35Mr. President, please stop.
50:37Molly, you always step up when this nation needs you most.
50:40We don't need clever power-hunger ears, nor power speaks the truth.
50:43So we need someone you to take over after me.
50:46Great.
50:47Remember, power is meant to protect, not conquer.
50:51Do not repeat Grayson's mistakes.
50:55I won't forget.
50:56I'll never let power chain me down.
50:59Great.
51:00Then go.
51:03Madam, are we leaving?
51:07It's time to move on.
51:10So she wields divine power?
51:12Then we're seizing it.
51:14Our chance has finally come.
51:20It's time to move on.
51:20It's time to move on.
51:22It's time to move on.
51:23It's time to move on.
51:23It's time to move on.
