Short filmTranscript
00:0530 million US dollars my father owed. I will find a way to pay it off. People from the
00:10underground bank said the creditor is here. Professor Thorne.
00:23Miss Vance, you were absent from this week's selected readings of Byron's poetry. Your
00:28attendance rate seems to be more worrying than your repayment ability. How could it
00:33be you? He is that... At school I am your professor. Here I am the one who has full
00:46ownership of you. On his will your father mortgaged you to me. I am not anyone's
00:54property. Really? You'd better pray you can walk out of this door tonight.
01:09At school I am your professor. Here I am the one who has full ownership of you.
01:23Are you crazy? You burned them. I no longer owe you anything.
01:35Contracts are for the dead, Serafina. Between living people there is no need for that kind of worthless paper.
01:45From now on, you will act as my after-class assistant. Stay here every night. Help me sort out the
01:52documents. And do anything I ask.
01:57If you want to torture me, you might as well just kill me.
02:02Rule number one. In my territory, without my permission, you must not make any sounds at all.
02:10Even if crying, you have to hold your tongue too. Understand?
02:22From now on, you will act as my after-class assistant. Stay here every night. And do anything I ask.
02:35He is so handsome. Frankenstein tells us,
02:38The creator holds an absolute desire for control over his creations. This kind of control is often accompanied by painful
02:46destruction.
02:47This is just the Elias Vaunt thing as to read your phone.
02:52Miss Vaunt? Could you please bring me the first edition poetry collection I left in the last row?
03:03What on earth is she wearing?
03:09Pick it up.
03:19Miss Vaunt's breathing was too loud, interrupting my train of thought.
03:23Come to my office after class.
03:38Finish reading chapter 3.
03:40Remember the rules.
03:42If you make the slightest sound, I will punish you.
03:52Has the shipment at the dock been seized? Smash the ten fingers of that traitor. Send it to the rival
03:58with together a photo of his family.
04:03I don't want to hear any excuses anymore.
04:09I want to see the results by tomorrow.
04:32Clean it up thoroughly.
04:35I remember I warned you, Miss Vance.
04:47I'm sorry.
04:48I didn't mean to.
04:50Let go of me.
04:58A pet that has made a mistake needs a rather profound lesson.
05:03So that it can remember its master's rules.
05:10...
05:18...
05:20...
05:41Your body, it is far more honest than your stubborn mouth, Miss Bounce.
05:51I promised to forgive your debt on the condition that you have to make me feel it's good value
05:56for money, and just now you not only made a sound, but also tried to push me away.
06:02The punishment for tonight has only just begun.
06:05Now, pick up the book that fell on the floor.
06:08Keep reading.
06:09Read while standing.
06:31The punishment for tonight has only just begun.
06:40Professor Thorne, regarding the deadline for the final paper, I've been preparing for
06:44the school team competition recently.
06:45Could you give me a two-day grace period?
06:48Oliver, the academic world is just like the real world.
06:52Only by absolutely obeying the rules can one survive.
06:55The reason why a deadline is called a deadline, it is because those who overstep the line
07:00must pay the price.
07:07I understand, Professor.
07:09I will hand it in on time.
07:15Serafina, you're here too.
07:16You look very flushed.
07:18Do you have a fever?
07:32Oliver, who gave you permission to address my assistant by their given name directly?
07:40Sorry, Professor.
07:41I gotta go.
07:53It seems that you enjoy the way other men stare at you.
08:10It seems that you enjoy the way other men stare at you.
08:17That scrap has already been disposed of.
08:19Just sink straight into the East Crip.
08:21Don't leave any debris that the police can trace back to.
08:24You know the rules.
08:32If...
08:32If I pick it up now, does that mean all the humiliation and deaths have finally come
08:38to an end?
08:45Do you want to kill me, my little songbird?
08:55Turn on the safety and pull the trigger.
08:58In just 0.1 seconds.
09:00You will be free.
09:05Dare not.
09:07Or...
09:07Can't bear to.
09:20Now that you've given up the chance to kill me.
09:23So from this second on.
09:24Your life.
09:26Your body.
09:27Every heartbeat of yours.
09:28It belongs to me.
09:29Completely.
09:30And utterly.
09:31And utterly.
09:31Until I die.
09:41Do you want to kill me, my little songbird?
09:59If there had been no gun in the drawer just now, only this.
10:03Do you know where to stab?
10:08Here.
10:09Just an inch more and I'll never speak again.
10:14In my world, kindness is mediments to courting death.
10:18Ms. Vance, if you want to stay alive, what you need to learn is not only gothic literature.
10:23That's all for tonight's class.
10:35If there had been no gun in the drawer just now, only this.
10:38Do you know where to stab?
10:44The Casano family intends to use this painting to offset a debt of 3D million years.
10:49Ms. Vance.
10:50Use your bankrupt aristocratic taste to judge whether it's worth.
10:56This is a fake.
10:57The sapphire on the hostess necklace lacks the unique purple list of 17th century Quamorbilix.
11:02What's the authentic work once hung him in my father's studier?
11:14Your father is a foolish gambler, but he did leave behind a valuable collateral.
11:20Remember, a smart hunting dog can not only guard the house, it can also help you bite through the enemy's
11:27throat.
11:48There is an underground auction tonight. You shall attend as my collection.
12:00Don't touch it.
12:03This is not merely decoration. This is your collar, Ms. Vance.
12:11As long as you wear it, every mad dog beneath New York will know whose exclusive property are you.
12:20Without my permission, you must not make a sound.
12:43Without my permission, you must be a ghost.
12:58Put on.
13:09I don't like my possessions trembling in front of others.
13:13It would make the host seem mean and unkind.
13:16Put it on properly.
13:18Hide your extra skins from me at the auction.
13:20Don't you dare let this dress slip even half an inch without my permission.
13:25I'll make you pay for it in the car.
13:34Don't you dare let this dress slip even half an inch without my permission.
13:39I'll make you pay for it in the car.
13:51Professor Thorne, this beautiful little bird.
13:54Is that the defective product the Vance family used to pay off their debts?
13:58Why don't you name your price and let her do it tonight?
14:08Mr. Kazara, I have fully sold off all your hidden scaresmen in the three liggers and companies.
14:14Your Brooklyn port is now facing complete breakdown of the capital chain.
14:17How dare you seize my port?
14:20You tried to defraud me of 30 million with a fake.
14:24This is a commercial breach of Cracked.
14:26As a major savator, I'm only conducting legitimate agist Liddy Asset League liquid.
14:31As for the look in your eyes just now.
14:35Take him out.
14:37Don't let me hear this person's voice again tonight.
14:40Let me go! You can't do this!
14:47Did you see it?
14:49To break a man, there's no need for petty jealousy.
14:53Only need to cut his artery.
14:55This is the game of power.
15:04Did you see it?
15:05To break a man, there's no need for petty jealousy.
15:09Only need to cut his artery.
15:11This is the game of power.
15:38What are you doing?
15:39Do you pity a monster who just destroyed someone's entire family?
15:44I'm just...
15:45Preserving my creditor's dignity.
15:52Remember the look in your eyes tonight, Seraphina.
15:55This is what you have to live on.
16:04Do you pity a monster who just destroyed someone's entire family?
16:08I'm just...
16:09Preserving my creditor's dignity.
16:21Seraphina, I heard that the Cassano family went bankrupt last night.
16:24New York has been unsafe lately.
16:26Professor Thorne is so strict, you must be careful when working as his assistant.
16:43Are you okay?
16:44You look very pale.
16:59Serafina, where are you?
17:04Serafina, where are you?
17:16I seem to have said, without my permission, anyone who even dares to glance at you deserves death.
17:32Shhh, rules are rules. If you make even the slightest sound and let him notice, tomorrow in the river, there
17:39will be one more young corpse.
17:48Serafina, where are you?
18:01Elias, you devour the port of Cassano. Your appetite is really too big. The balance of the underworld isn't maintained
18:07the way you're doing it.
18:09Is this your new canary? The bankrupt young lady of the Vance family? Elias, keeping such fragile and mindless toys
18:17by your side, will make you look very weak.
18:20How about sending her to my club instead? We can get a good price for her.
18:25Mrs. Blackwood, the broad you're wearing today. Is it a replica of Catherine the Great from the 18th century?
18:31Impeccably imitated though it is, but the authentic piece is now kept in the Winter Palace in St. Petersburg.
18:37Wearing a fake to talk about the distribution of family interests, it seems unbecoming of your noble status.
18:50Wearing a fake to talk about the distribution of family interests, it seems unbecoming of your noble status.
19:03Not only did I break the rule of absolute silence just now, but I also talked back to a major
19:08underworld figure.
19:25You've broken the rules today, Seraphina. But I am very satisfied.
19:31A true hound when facing external enemies should show such sharp fangs.
19:37But you have to remember, on the chessboard, the queen is indeed the most deadly piece.
19:44But she will always belong to the king. Never try to be clever outside my control.
19:52I know, I am no longer just a pawn. I have stepped onto this man's chessboard.
20:00A true hound when facing external enemies should show such sharp fangs.
20:17The two sums of money laundered by the Blackwood family through Soskys last month, there is a problem with the
20:22miniature anti-counterfeiting line of the seal.
20:24They have obviously underestimated your auto-curing capabilities.
20:37What they underestimated is my queen. Find all their vulnerabilities, Seraphina.
20:43I'm going to make Maeve Blackhood kneel at the underground dinner tomorrow night and spit out every penny she swallowed
20:50in return.
20:51The bad debts left by your father are written off once and for all. From now on you only work
20:57for me.
21:09What they underestimated is my queen.
21:18Seperfina, I've looked up Professor Thorne's background. He is by no means an ordinary academic authority.
21:23The foundation under his name is directly related with the bankruptcy of the Cassano family.
21:28He's a dangerous person, you have to stay away from him.
21:35Come with me. Let's call the police.
21:40Oliver, you're far too naive. Do you think I was forced into this?
21:44What does it matter if the Cassano family goes bankrupt?
21:47Staying by Professor Thorne's side, the wealth and status I could gain is a poor student like you could never
21:52offer in a lifetime.
21:56How... how did you become like this?
22:10He's a dangerous person, you have to stay away from him.
22:27He's a dangerous person, you have to stay away from him.
22:28He's a dangerous person, you have to stay away from him.
22:37Elias, you actually brought your little canary straight into the wolf's dell.
22:42Tonight's dinner party is no child's play.
22:45Maeve, in my dictionary there is no wolf den.
22:48Only a hunting ground, and she is my sharpest blade tonight.
23:00I want 40% of the profits from those smuggling routes in the East District.
23:04This is the bottom line of the Blackwood family.
23:08I want 40% of the profits from those smuggling routes in the East District.
23:12This is the bottom line of the Blackwood family.
23:2440%
23:28Maeve, you seem to have forgotten the seal loophole you used for money laundering at Sotheby's last month, if I
23:35hand it over to the FBI.
23:4910%
23:50Get one more point. The entire Blackwood family will vanish from New York tomorrow morning.
24:11Elias, you've gone too far.
24:14Do you think you can walk out of this door alive tonight?
24:50Yeah, I think you can walk out of this door waiting for a start!
24:50My queen.
25:16Don't move.
25:17I'm checking if you got cut by the glass.
25:21Seperfina, I taught you how to calculate costs.
25:24You are the most promising asset my books.
25:27Who allowed an asset to take a bullet for its master?
25:30If Mayer's guns off accidentally tonight, I'll lose all my investment.
25:36If Maeve kills you, my debts will be divided up by the entire underground bank syndicate.
25:41I'm just protecting my only creditor.
25:44This venture capital deal is well worth it.
26:00Don't move.
26:21Look at the date above.
26:27You, two years ago when I first took your literature class, did you just bought up my family's debt?
26:37Do you think I really care about those ridiculous bargaining stocks your father has?
26:42From the day you pointed out the flaws in my blackboard writing, with that cold and aloof look in class.
26:48I don't think that's right.
26:55I decided to put you in my private vault.
26:59Bankruptcy is merely the opportunity for me to close the net.
27:02I don't need a pretty ornament, Seraphina.
27:05I need someone with noble upbringing and extraordinary intelligence.
27:10And an accomplice with no way back.
27:21And an accomplice with no way back.
27:51I just want to spend more with her then.
27:53Here's the first date from my mother where I went to sleep, isn't it?
28:02your move of smashing the wine bottle was really graceful
28:05but it takes more than just ruthlessness to gain a foothold in this city
28:09you must hold on to authority
28:38you must hold on to authority
29:08you must hold on to authority
29:10tell me Serkafina
29:12why didn't you push me away when we were in the car tonight
29:15don't perfectually brush me off with those cheap emotions
29:18I want to hear your true judgment
29:22because I've calculated the profits
29:24rather than being divided up as spoils by those disgusting gangsters
29:27better to become your core interest entirely
29:31Elias
29:32what I want is more than just debt forgiveness
29:36I want a seat in your business empire
30:04I want a seat in your business
30:07I want a seat in your business
30:08I want a seat in your business
30:20that is the control right of the brooklyn port belonging to the newly bankrupt cassano family
30:24in my empire there are no izi lay asks nor do i hand out charity relief funds
30:29you want a seat earn it yourself the accounts of this port are in a complete mess right now
30:35and the people below are all a pack of mad dogs that'll turn on you at any moment
30:39from today onwards you are the ceo of this port and the official agent of my thorn family
30:45not only have i forgiven your father's debt but i have also given you the chips to enter the game
30:49but you need to understand that with this document in your hand you will face 10 times more assassinations
30:55once you step outside than you did last night if this port cannot turn a profit within a month
30:59i will personally drag you down to the east river along with all these messy debts
31:05got it my partner
31:11as you wish mr thorn
31:37what is next ?
31:40did you do this ?
31:40what is next ?
31:50Miss Vance, that mad dog Elias put you in this position just to let us test his limits.
31:56Do you really think you're a queen?
31:58You're nothing but a decoy.
32:06Take your hands out.
32:08Slowly.
32:09Drop what's inside on the ground.
32:19Now, your god cannot hear your voice anymore.
32:30Take your hands out.
32:32Slowly.
32:33Drop what's inside on the ground.
32:35Come with me.
33:02Miss Vance.
33:04That Mad Dog Alliance
33:06Quinn
33:15Block all exits of Brooklyn Port
33:17Since Quinn dares to touch my partner
33:20I want his head placed on my desk in 10 minutes
33:25Miss Vance
33:26That Mad Dog Alliance
33:29Quinn
33:52Quinn
34:14this is the price you pay for pointing a knife at her just now no no drag him back to
34:18the dungeon
34:19break every single bone in his body and i'll make him live for three full days
34:23no please
34:24Nooooooooooooooo!
35:14It's just a bullet, Graze.
35:16Why are you trembling?
35:17You should have known this is the price of power the moment you took over the port.
35:22Scared?
35:24Or feel compassion for me?
35:28I'm just calculating how much I'll lose if my major shareholder passes away.
35:34Lie.
35:44Since you've already seen me bleed, Seraphina, you will never be able to leave this world with a clear cantons.

42:41At my poker table there is no dead-end left hanging. She will definitely follow suit, for she has no
42:47other choice.
42:59The calculation is finished. Adding even one more cent would be a crime against the Thorn family's capital chain. She
43:05has won.
43:06No, she's over.
43:08I have long embedded tracking malware of the Federal Tax Service into the underlying code of that land deed.
43:14Whoever makes the final payment will have their offshore account fully frozen by Interpol within 48 hours.
43:20I sold her a cup of deadly poison for $60 million.
43:26An extremely sophisticated short-selling tactic. Executive have learned a valuable lesson.
43:36Executive have learned a valuable lesson.
44:07Investment has learned a great understanding.
44:09Maeve realized the port was a trap. She planned to eliminate the creditors physically before the payment deadline arrived. Once
44:15the creditors were dealt with, the debts would be written off naturally.
44:17Brutal, yet it fits the underlying logic of the underworld. Which path should we take?
44:21Backup vault. There is a physical isolation network there.
44:39Eirat.
44:42First of all, the
44:43іс.
44:46Портиців і світ.
44:57Портиців і діюйся.
45:00Армі.
45:03Портиців і діюйся.
45:06Портиців і діюйся.
45:07Портиців і лазить pointing.
45:08Портиців і ласка від для того, що праців і тісно.
45:12The shooting trajectory is precise. Not a single bullet is wasted.
45:17You taught me to calculate costs. There's no need to use two bullets when one can settle the trouble.
45:47Come in. The defense protocols need to be locked down internally.
45:53The system has been physically disconnected. This door is no longer powered, and someone must lock it manually from the
46:00outside to activate the internal absolute defense protocol.
46:04This makes no economic sense. If you get swarmed out there, the power vacuum in the Thorn family will trigger
46:08devastating internal thrife. Your life is worth far more than this server.
46:11So it's up to you to take charge, Executive. The physical key to the server is on the desk. You
46:17have three minutes to hack into Interpol's internal network and expose Maeve's money laundering evidence ahead of time.
46:22No. No.
46:23If I die in three minutes, you will be the sole legitimate heir to the Thorn family. Take over my
46:29empire and make them all pay with their lives.
46:35The physical key to the server is on the desk. You have three minutes to hack into Interpol's internal network
46:41and expose Maeve's money laundering evidence ahead of time.
46:44No.
46:45No.
46:45No.
47:06Elias.
47:06To protect the woman who keeps your accounts, you've made yourself a sitting duck in this whole situation.
47:13Where has your sanity gone?
47:22My reason tells me that she is the only one who can reshape the game.
47:34To protect the woman who keeps your accounts, you've made yourself a sitting duck in this whole situation.
47:41Where has your sanity gone?
47:52Asset transfer agreement confirmed.
47:54Interpol Automatic Reporting Portal, Integration, Trogan Plantation.
48:18It's over, Mr. Thorne.
48:20It's over, Mr. Thorne.
48:29It's over, Mr. Thorne.
48:49It's over, Mr. Thorne.
48:57No, no, you, you can't do this. I'll pay you. I'm your employer.
49:01You're bankrupt, Ms. Blackwood. Loyalty means nothing in the face of absolute capital.
49:19May-Ave Blackwood Town's account has been emptied.
49:22From now on, the Thorne family will take over your employment contracts.
49:28Put down your gun, and your commission will be doubled tonight.
49:33Get rid of her. Triple the reward.
49:36No, no, you...
49:42May-Ave Blackwood Town's account has been emptied.
49:53An extremely perfect leveraged buyout.
49:58Executive Veins, your professional competence has exceeded my highest expectations.
50:07Shut up.
50:09Shut up. Save your strength.
50:10The Thorne family refuses to accept any verbal orders until your vital signs return to the safe threshold.
50:21Stand by the engine.
50:23Stand by the engine.
50:24Notify the Thorne family's private medical teaming to stand by at Safe House One within five minutes.
50:30If he dies, all of you will lose your triple commission along with your lives.
50:38Shut up. Save your strength.
50:59Leave you alone outside to face crossfire is what's known in venture capital as an extremely stupid single point of
51:05failure.
51:06If my code had taken effect three seconds later, the Thorne family would be facing liquid damage.
51:10and restructuring today.
51:12Elias, as the leader, your life does not belong to yourself, but to the entire family's capital pool.
51:17Your decision tonight completely goes against the business principles you taught me.
51:30No, that is extremely precise logic.
51:39For those three minutes, you were my only core asset.
51:43To preserve this asset, it is worth selling off all external stakes.
51:47Even sacrificing my own life.
51:52Because I know, as long as you're alive,
51:56you will win back my lost empire for me, with interest and all.
52:00This high stakes gamble, I won.
52:33The three kingpins of South Brooklyn could have been forced to compromise by cutting off their funding.
52:39Liquiditing directly will increase the follow handling costs by 15%.
52:45If we spare them, the risk of another rebellion breaking out within the next three years stands at 7%.
52:50By contrast, the one-time remediation cost of 15%, constitutes an extremely cost-effective long-term risk control measure.
53:00The Thorn family's ledgers have no room for wavering liabilities.
53:05Execute in accordance with your risk control model.
53:08As HEP today, I formally transfer my signing authority to you.
53:14Execute in accordance with your risk control model.
53:17As HEP today, I formally transfer my signing authority to you.
53:27DEAL WITH EVERYONE ON THIS LIST ONE BY ONE.
53:29DEAL WITH EVERYONE ON THIS LIST ONE BY ONE.
53:45The Blackwood family has been completely wiped out.
53:50The Thorn family has achieved an absolute monopoly over New York's underground routes and capital markets.
53:57The current scale has exalted the risk-bearing capacity of a single leader.
54:03You need to set up a double firewall.
54:05Or rather, you need a partner who can hold cross-shares with you and share fatal risks together.
54:14More than just partners.
54:17I need an irreversible, lifelong agreement.
54:21An ultimate contract that ties your life, your mind, and even the cost of your betrayal irrevasibly to me within
54:28the same capital gain.
54:43Sign it.
54:47This is the last compulsory acquisition I initiate against you.
54:54Sign it.
54:58This is the last compulsory acquisition I initiate against you.
55:54This is the last compulsory acquisition I will not recommend you if you keep in mind.
56:14Duel control takes formal effect.
56:16From now on, the Thorn family's ledgers, power over life and death, and shared profits are all ours.
56:25If you betray me, this ring is your death sentence.
56:36Risk hedging completed. Live and die together. Feast side by side in the abyss.
56:43If you make any decisions that harm our common interests, Iliya, I will personally cut off your capital chain, then
56:50destroy you.
57:05Aren't you afraid I'll mess up all your plans? Put down your gun.
57:23Duel. My executor.
57:28Duel. My executor.
57:28Duel. My executor.
57:31Duel.
57:50Duel.
