00:00Ten years.
00:01I did everything for you.
00:03Almost drowned saving your ass in that river,
00:05wrecked my own body, gave up a full ride to Stanford.
00:08And this is what I get.
00:10Tonight's the last night before the wedding.
00:12I'm going to surprise him.
00:14Thea, it's not what you think.
00:16Sis, don't blame Ethan.
00:18He just really wanted a baby.
00:22How long?
00:25Three months.
00:27Thea, listen to me.
00:28Your body, the doctor said you might not be able to.
00:32So your solution was to fuck my stepsy?
00:37I'm sorry, Thea.
00:38If you want this baby, I can.
00:41You can what?
00:42Shove it back in?
00:43Stop making a scene, Thea.
00:44The wedding's tomorrow.
00:46Hundreds of guests, a $3 million venue.
00:48You want to be the joke of the city?
00:50I'm asking you one last time.
00:52Her or me?
00:55Ten years.
00:56I did everything for you.
00:58Almost drowned saving your ass in that river.
01:00Wrecked my own body.
01:02Gave up a full ride to Stanford.
01:04And this is what I get.
01:06Ethan!
01:07Wedding's off.
01:08You're done.
01:09You're insane.
01:10You're nothing without me.
01:12Your dad's going to side with me.
01:13Thea!
01:14Everyone thought I'd cave, but they don't know.
01:17I was never that kind of woman.
01:22Three months.
01:24Thea, listen to me.
01:25Your body...
01:26The doctor said you might not be able to...
01:33I'm sorry, Thea.
01:35If you want this baby, I can...
01:37You're insane!
01:38This dress is worth 50 grand!
01:41Perfect.
01:42Like it was made for you.
01:46It was always meant to be mine.
01:53Thea!
01:54How did you...
01:55Thea!
01:56What are you doing?
01:57Let go!
01:57You're insane!
01:59This dress is worth 50 grand!
02:05My money.
02:07My scissors.
02:10You're no heart-loved princess.
02:13You're cut off.
02:13Get out.
02:14You think you can freeze mom's trust?
02:16Your mom's trust?
02:17One signature from your dad?
02:19And you're cut out.
02:22They think without Ethan and the heart-wields,
02:24I'm just a stray.
02:28Thea!
02:37But they were all dead wrong.
02:51Hold it!
02:52Miss Hart-Wield.
02:53You're blocking my convoy.
02:55What do you want?
02:58Marry me.
03:02You know who I am?
03:04Noah Russo.
03:04The allegedly crippled billionaire who hasn't left his estate in six years.
03:08Your mom's been begging everyone to find you a wife,
03:10but no one on the East Coast got the guts.
03:12You've done your homework.
03:13But what makes you think I'd say yes?
03:15You need a wife to get your mom off your back.
03:17I need a last name with enough weight to get my mother's trust fund back.
03:19We both win.
03:22What if I'm not interested?
03:28Hold it!
03:29If you really weren't interested, your car would have been gone by now.
03:34Get in.
03:37From now on, use my last name.
03:42Mr. Russo, your rules are mine.
03:45Mine.
03:45Rule one, don't fall for me.
03:48Don't fall for him?
03:49Relax.
03:50I know what this marriage is better than he does.
04:03Marrying a crippled tyrant just to spite me?
04:05This one piece of paper could buy your whole company.
04:08Who hit rock bottom again?
04:10Noah Russo's style.
04:11Even engagement gifts feel like a declaration of war.
04:15What the hell is all this?
04:17From my fiancé.
04:19What, jealous?
04:20Fiancé?
04:21You mean Noah Russo, the guy in a wheel tear?
04:23Thea, you've really hit rock bottom.
04:25Marrying a crippled tyrant just to spite me?
04:27This one piece of paper could buy your whole company.
04:30Who hit rock bottom again?
04:32You think the Russo family is some fairy tale?
04:34His people call him boss.
04:36Not because of business.
04:38You're walking into the lion's den.
04:40The lion's den is less dangerous than your bed.
04:42At least the lion doesn't say I love you while screwing someone else.
04:46Get out.
04:48Next time I'll have Marcus show you out.
04:52From today, this is your home.
04:53East wing is yours.
04:54West wing is mine.
04:55Don't wander.
04:56Any other rules?
04:57Act married in public.
04:59Behind closed doors were strangers.
05:00This is a deal.
05:01Not a fairy tale.
05:02Mr. Russo, relax.
05:04The princess in a fairy tale wouldn't have flagged down your convoy in a blizzard.
05:09Marcus, take her in.
05:17Barging in without knocking?
05:18That a habit of yours?
05:21Door wasn't locked.
05:22That's on you.
05:23Word travels fast.
05:37Barging in without knocking?
05:39That a habit of yours?
05:41Door wasn't locked.
05:43That's on you.
05:45Seen enough?
05:46Mr. Russo, for a cripple, you keep your muscles in surprisingly good shape.
05:50If you're curious, you can come closer and check.
05:57Not interested.
05:58Don't forget your own rule.
05:59We're strangers behind closed doors.
06:01Ma'am, urgent matter.
06:03Your mother's vintage Steinway piano.
06:05Miss Freya sent men to take it by force.
06:07She wouldn't dare.
06:10Follow her.
06:11Bring enough, maybe.
06:13Yes, sir.
06:17Easy.
06:18This thing's worth 300 grand.
06:20Don't scratch it.
06:22Put it down.
06:23Too late, sis.
06:24Dad said it's mine now.
06:26If you don't like it, I can smash it right in front of you.
06:28I mean, Mom's gone anyway.
06:31Who cares who plays it?
06:32You don't deserve to touch her things.
06:37My baby!
06:39Thea pushed me down the stairs!
06:41Help!
06:42What the fuck did you do?
06:43What the fuck did you do?
06:46I...
06:48Didn't...
06:49Touch her.
06:50Liar.
06:52You wanted to kill her baby!
07:04That's when I understood.
07:06Noah Russo's deal was never just a piece of paper.
07:15What's this supposed to mean?
07:16It means...
07:17Next time someone lays a hand on you, don't wait for my men.
07:21Stab them back yourself.
07:26Boss says...
07:27Touch Mrs. Russo again, the next bullet won't hit the floor.
07:31Get off me!
07:36Mrs. Russo, we're taking you home.
07:44What's this supposed to mean?
07:46It means...
07:47Next time someone lays a hand on you, don't wait for my men.
07:50Stab them back yourself.
07:53Why are you helping me?
07:54We're just a deal.
07:55My woman comes home with a bruised up face.
07:57It makes me look bad.
07:58Don't read into it.
07:59Everyone calls him the devil.
08:01But the devil doesn't send bullets when someone's choking the life out of you.
08:09Mr. Russo.
08:11Hmm.
08:13Thanks.
08:15Sir, a state security feed shows Ethan Ashford's brought 12 men.
08:19They're forcing through the East Gate.
08:21Let him in.
08:26Touch my woman.
08:30And I'll fucking end you.
08:32Thea!
08:34Come with me!
08:35You barge into someone's home with a squad of thugs to pick up your ex-fiancee?
08:41Ethan, you're even more pathetic than I thought.
08:43Cut the act!
08:44You're just using this cripple to get back at me.
08:47You're mine!
08:48Alive or dead!
08:49Ten years together, you think you can just erase that?!
08:53Let go!
09:16You're... you're not...
09:21Touch my woman.
09:25And I'll fucking end you.
09:28What are you doing?
09:30Checking if your adrenaline is still kicking.
09:45You stood up just now.
09:46Adrenaline.
09:48Stress response under extreme circumstances.
09:51Don't read into it.
09:52Adrenaline lets a cripple lift a six-foot man with one hand and smash him through a table?
09:57Medical miracle.
10:02What are you doing?
10:05Checking if your adrenaline is still kicking.
10:15That's enough.
10:16Your muscle tension's perfectly normal.
10:19If this is disabled, I'd like to be disabled too.
10:23Go to bed. We've got business tomorrow.
10:27Miss me?
10:29Ethan's driving me insane.
10:31When are you gonna take me away?
10:38Boss, targets acquired.
10:40The woman's Freya Hartley.
10:42The man, he's the one you've been looking for.
10:45If the due date's a lie, then whose baby is it?
10:49The prey took the bait.
10:51Leo Cain. The one behind the crash six years ago.
10:53Number seven on the FBI's Most Wanted.
10:55And he dares show his face.
10:57He didn't come back for Freya.
10:58He came back to check if I really can't stand.
11:00Your stepsister's secret lover.
11:02And the man who caused my father's accident.
11:05What do you need me to find?
11:06Freya's medical records.
11:07The timing of her pregnancy.
11:09Cross-reference it with Ethan's travel schedule.
11:10I'll bet they don't line up.
11:12Mom used to sit on the board at Lenox Hill.
11:15Her admin access...
11:16was never revoked.
11:1838 weeks.
11:19But Freya told everyone she's only seven months along.
11:22That's a whole...
11:24two extra months.
11:34No way.
11:35She wouldn't lie to me.
11:37She couldn't...
11:42If the due date's a lie...
11:45then whose baby is it?
11:47Idiot.
11:48A couple tears and he buys anything.
11:50Explain!
11:52Baby.
11:53That's because I was scared to death.
11:55The doctor said the baby was too big.
11:57If I didn't induce early there'd be complications.
12:00I didn't want to tell you.
12:01I didn't want to worry you.
12:02Then why'd you buy meds from some back alley clinic?
12:04A real hospital wouldn't do?
12:05Because...
12:06because the paparazzi kept tailing me.
12:08If they found out I induced early they'd spin it into a scandal.
12:11Fake pregnancy.
12:12Marriage fraud.
12:13I was just trying to protect you and this family.
12:15Next time something's up you tell me.
12:17Don't go behind my back.
12:18Idiot.
12:18A couple tears and he buys anything.
12:34I'm just a piece on his chest board.
12:35The doctor said it's going to kill you.
12:37But I'm just a piece on your chest board.
12:39I'm just a piece on his chest board.
12:42Bait.
12:43To lure Leo out.
12:49You shouldn't be in here.
12:56You think blocking one door fixes everything?
12:59No.
13:00But at least you'll hear me out.
13:02My name's got a target on it.
13:04You married me just to use me as bait to draw Leo out?
13:09Yes.
13:11Good, at least you're honest.
13:13No, Arusso, the only difference between you and Ethan is you don't pretend to care when you lie.
13:18Adrenaline again?
13:20It was.
13:22At first.
13:25And now?
13:29Now, you're not going anywhere.
13:33You think blocking one door fixes everything?
13:36No.
13:37But at least you'll hear me out.
13:57Six years ago, a truck ran a red light head-on into my father's car.
14:01I was in the passenger seat.
14:03I watched him pinned behind the wheel calling my name.
14:06I couldn't get the door open.
14:07The cops called it an accident.
14:09It took me three years to trace the truck back to Leo Kane.
14:12His brother went to prison for corruption.
14:13My father put him there.
14:15Died inside.
14:16Leo wanted revenge.
14:20So you faked the disability?
14:22To make him think I was done.
14:24Let his guard down.
14:25Wait for him to surface.
14:27You could have told me.
14:28From the very start.
14:30I wasn't sure you'd stay.
14:32I got cheated on.
14:34Kicked out by my stepmom.
14:35Framed by my stepsister.
14:36You really think I scare easy?
14:38No.
14:40You're the most fearless woman I've ever met.
14:52Thea, I need to see you.
14:54I think I'm losing my mind.
14:56Please.
14:58I'll handle him.
15:00No.
15:01This time, I'll deal with it myself.
15:08Oh.
15:13DNA paternity test.
15:15Freya's kid.
15:16Zero match with my genes.
15:19So?
15:20So I was wrong.
15:21She played me.
15:23Thea, you were right all along.
15:26And then?
15:28I'm begging you.
15:29Give me one more chance.
15:31We can start over.
15:33Forget Freya.
15:33Forget everything.
15:39Ten years.
15:42Thea, ten years together, you can really just walk away?
15:46Ten years.
15:47You're right.
15:48That's a long time.
15:53Long enough to see exactly who you are.
15:56Late love is cheaper than dirt, Ethan.
15:58Don't come looking for me again.
16:02You'll regret this, Thea.
16:04If I can't have you,
16:07no one will.
16:16I'll rip it apart in front of everyone.
16:19With my own hands.
16:24Baby, your taste is amazing.
16:26This color's to die for.
16:29As long as you like it.
16:32By the way, I've got a surprise.
16:35What surprise?
16:36A hundred-day banquet for the baby.
16:38I'm throwing the most lavish party this city's ever seen,
16:41every name in town,
16:42there to witness our child,
16:44our family.
16:46Really?
16:46You're finally going to claim me in front of everyone?
16:49Of course.
16:50You and the baby deserve the best.
16:51The recognition you want?
16:54I'll rip it apart in front of everyone.
16:56With my own hands.
17:00Intel confirmed.
17:01Leo's going in disguised as a server.
17:03He plans to move on you during the chaos.
17:05Then let him come.
17:06Want to tip off the FBI first?
17:08No.
17:09I'm taking him myself.
17:12Six years is long enough.
17:17The hundred-day banquet?
17:19The final night.
17:21Want to go?
17:22My stepsister's about to have her big moment
17:24in front of the whole city.
17:25How could I miss it?
17:40Congratulations, Mrs. Ashford.
17:43Ethan throwing a party this grand
17:45shows how much he values you and the baby.
17:48He spoils me too much.
18:01Oh my god.
18:04Noah Russo can walk?
18:08I heard it's all thanks to Mrs. Russo.
18:16No way.
18:18Everyone's staring at her.
18:20This is my party.
18:22This is my party.
18:27Thank you all for coming tonight.
18:29On this special occasion,
18:31I'd like to give my beloved Freya
18:33a big gift.
18:37Here we go.
18:46Someone must have fabricated...
18:48Misunderstanding!
18:49I want everyone here to see
18:51what Freya has brought to this family.
19:06Oh my god.
19:10Who the hell is that guy?
19:12Turn it off!
19:13It's fake!
19:15Someone's framing me!
19:18Remember what you told me?
19:20I was just trying to protect this family?
19:21The man in that video.
19:23Was he protecting his family too?
19:26Ethan!
19:26This is all a misunderstanding!
19:28Someone must have fabricated...
19:31Misunderstanding?!
19:32Freya Hartsale.
19:34At the business summit a year ago,
19:37you drugged me.
19:39You faked the pregnancy timeline.
19:41You passed off another man's kid as mine.
19:43You don't know for the ship you're on now
19:44and it's the force that nets me.
19:46Everything you've done,
19:48I've traced it all.
19:50Every.
19:50Single.
19:52Thing!
19:55Even if I cheated,
19:57this baby is still your flesh and blood!
20:00You can't do this to me!
20:02Ethan, what are you doing?!
20:04That's your baby!
20:09His flesh and blood?
20:28He's dead.
20:30Awwww!
20:30Awwww!
20:32Awwww!
20:33Awwww!
20:33Awwww!
20:33Awwww!
20:33Awwww!
20:34Awwww!
20:34So Ethan Ashfield can't even have kids!
20:36Been cucked for almost a year raising another man's baby?!
20:39Wall Street golden boy?
20:41Can't even do that.
20:44Ethan!
20:45This isn't real!
20:46The report's fake!
20:48Someone's trying to destroy you!
20:50Ethan, what are you doing?!
20:51Awwww!
20:56You shouldn't have come here.
21:01Awwww!
21:06Awwww!
21:07Awwww!
21:07Awwww!
21:09Awwww!
21:09Awwww!
21:09Awwww!
21:22Awwww!
21:26Awwww!
21:27Awwww!
21:29Awwww!
21:29Awwww!
21:30Awwww!
21:30Awwww!
21:30Awwww!
21:30Oh, that's not me!
21:35You're hurt!
21:41Don't move.
21:42Shut up.
21:56Russo!
21:57You think you've won?
21:59My brother died in that cell.
22:01This ain't fucking over.
22:11It's all you.
22:13You ruined everything.
22:27You're under arrest for attempted assault.
22:29You have the right to remain...
22:33I...
22:35I...
22:36I didn't mean to...
22:38Freya Hartleel.
22:39You're under arrest for attempted assault.
22:41You have the right to remain...
22:53You see?
22:54I finally did one thing right.
22:59Thank you for taking that hit.
23:01But it doesn't change anything.
23:04I know.
23:08Let's go.
23:09It's over.
23:19Some apologies always come too late.
23:22Not because they don't mean it.
23:32Doesn't matter where we fly.
23:34It's over.
23:44Stop reading.
23:45What's coming will come.
23:48Willow's destroying evidence as we speak.
23:50She won't go down without a fight.
23:53Marcus is already at her door.
23:57Richard!
23:57What are you sitting there for?
23:59Get the passports.
23:59We fly to Switzerland.
24:00There's an account!
24:02It doesn't matter where we fly.
24:05It's over.
24:11Mrs. Hartwield.
24:12Per the petition filed by Russo Legal,
24:14the court has frozen all Hartwield family assets,
24:16including trust fund accounts.
24:17Any attempt to move assets before the investigation concludes
24:20will be treated as contempt of court.
24:22You can't do this.
24:23That's my daughter's!
24:25No, Mrs. Hartfield.
24:26The legal beneficiary of the trust is Thea Hartfield.
24:28Always has been.
24:33The glass severed part of the spinal cord.
24:35We've repaired the bleeding, but...
24:37But what?
24:38There's a high probability of lower body paralysis.
24:41Even with recovery, he'd need a wheelchair for at least a year,
24:43possibly longer.
24:46A wheelchair.
24:48The one thing he looked down on most.
24:50Now it's his life.
24:52My mom pushed me into the fire!
24:58Here to gloat?
25:01I'm here to ask you one thing.
25:04About my mother.
25:07When she died, the doctor said chronic renal failure.
25:11But her annual checkups were clean.
25:14A 38-year-old's kidneys don't just shut down.
25:20What did Willow put in her supplements?
25:22My mom pushed me into the fire!
25:24Told me to seduce Ethan!
25:26Scam you!
25:27Destroy you!
25:27And in the end, she won't even hire me!
25:29A goddamn lawyer!
25:30Heavy metal, thallium, trace amounts mixed into the cordiap's powder.
25:37Your mom took it for three years.
25:41Thank you for telling me.
25:43See, I never touched those pills.
25:45It was all my mom, I swear.
25:49Mom.
25:52Now I know.
25:57I was just taking back what belonged to my daughter!
26:04Thea, this is a misunderstanding.
26:06I don't know what Freya told you, but that girl's mentally unstable.
26:09Thallium.
26:10Chronic thallium poisoning.
26:12This is the retested blood sample from my mother's records.
26:15The hospital kept frozen specimens.
26:17And this is the overseas pharmaceutical purchase record under your name.
26:22Over three years, six separate orders of trace thallium compounds from an Eastern European chemical supplier
26:28shipped to your private spa.
26:30Those were, those were beauty products!
26:32Thallium can be used for hair removal!
26:34Mrs. Hartsfield, the dosage you purchased is sufficient to cause chronic renal failure
26:38and death in an adult female over three years.
26:41It matches Thea's mother's cause of death exactly.
26:44She deserved it!
26:45Sitting pretty as the first wife, hoarding a trust fund worth hundreds of millions,
26:48treating me and Freya like what?
26:50Outsiders?
26:50Parasites?
26:51I was just taking back what belonged to my daughter!
26:53Belong to your daughter?
26:54My mother left that to me with her life.
26:55I'm pressing murder charges against Willow Hartfield.
26:57All evidence has been handed over.
27:10It's done.
27:12You did good.
27:14From today, you don't have a daughter.
27:16Given that Willow Hartfield has been separately indicted for premeditated murder,
27:19and the evidence of trust document forgery is conclusive,
27:21This court rules.
27:22Thea Hartfield Emma Trust, all author-authorized fund transfers stored as the sole legal rent of Hartfield
27:26must be returned in full within 90 days.
27:27This court is adjourned.
27:28Thea, I know I wronged your mother, wronged you, but I'm your father.
27:31Blood is blood.
27:32You know what, Dad?
27:33Mom took poison for three years.
27:35Three years.
27:36You slept next to her, watched her waste away, lose her hair, stop eating, and you notice nothing?
27:42Or did you notice and just didn't want to know?
27:46Don't look for me again.
27:48From today, you don't have a daughter.
28:05She was gone when I was 18.
28:06I didn't even get to see her one last time.
28:09Willow said she didn't want me seeing her like that.
28:11Really, she was afraid Mom would tell me the truth.
28:14She'd be proud.
28:16Look what you've done.
28:19Mom.
28:21The bad people are paying for what they did.
28:26Everything you left me, I got it back.
28:29All of it.
28:38Mrs. Russo, with all due respect, you're 28 with zero experience in corporate management.
28:44This company needs someone with...
28:46This is the financial audit of Hartwell Group for the past six months.
28:49Of everyone here, three of you signed off on Willow's unauthorized fund transfer and two stamped forged trust documents knowing
28:56they were fake.
28:59I'll give you two options.
29:01One, submit your resignation now and leave with dignity.
29:05Two, wait for the prosecutor's subpoena.
29:22Heartfield Group announces a major leadership over Heil.
29:26Founder's daughter, Thea Russo, officially takes the helm as CEO, becoming New York's youngest female corporate head.
29:33Industry insiders say this heiress is rebuilding the empire at breakneck speed.
29:37The board's decision is to remove Ethan Ashford as CEO.
29:45The doctors say rehab can start next week.
29:50Can I move my legs?
29:59Then don't talk about rehab.
30:11Mr. Ashford, we need to take you for a follow-up.
30:14Please get in the wheelchair.
30:21A wheelchair, so this is what it feels like.
30:25Since the banquet bansfer, three major partners have terminated their agreements.
30:29Stock price has evaporated 40% in a week.
30:32The board's decision is to remove Ethan Ashford as CEO.
30:46I became the man I looked down on most.
31:18I became
31:20the man I looked down on most.
31:54Mom, Willow's been charged, murder one, prosecutor says 25 years minimum.
32:01Freya got sentence two, aggravated assault and conspiracy to defraud eight years.
32:06Leo, murder plus armed assault, life without parole.
32:11The fun's back, the company's mine now.
32:15Everything you left me, I held on to it.
32:19There you are.
32:22How'd you know I was here?
32:24Everything wrapped up today and you didn't come home.
32:26When you don't come home, there's only one place you go.
32:36What are you doing?
32:37The last wedding was a transaction.
32:39The ring was a contract attachment.
32:40The vows were procedural.
32:41This time it's not.
32:43Thea Hartwear, will you marry me?
32:45Not for the trust fund, not for Leo, not for any goddamn deal.
32:49Just because I want to spend my life with you.
32:52Noah Russo, you are the worst proposal giver I've ever seen.
32:56So?
32:59So, yes.
33:01Mom, I found someone.
33:02He'll fight like hell to protect me, just like you did.
33:06Mr. Russo, congratulations.
33:08Mrs. Russo is pregnant.
33:09This is my daughter-in-law, Thea, the most capable woman in all of New York.
33:14My son's blessing from three lifetimes of good karma.
33:18Mom, that's enough.
33:26What's wrong?
33:28I don't know.
33:31Does he...
33:34Marcus!
33:36Car!
33:41Mr. Russo, congratulations.
33:44Mrs. Russo is pregnant.
33:45Approximately eight weeks.
33:48Oh my god!
33:50I'm gonna be a grandma!
33:52They told me before that I couldn't conceive.
33:55Tested so many times.
33:56I had your old medical records pulled.
33:58Your blood samples show traces of anti-fertiti compounds.
34:03Willow?
34:04Started that early?
34:06Yours.
34:08Were to make sure you couldn't have children so Freya could replace you.
34:13But she failed.
34:22Noah Russo.
34:23I do.
34:24Thea Hartswheel Russo.
34:25I do.
34:28Perfect.
34:30You're the most beautiful bride in the world.
34:40You're late.
34:42Bride's privilege.
34:45Noah Russo.
34:46I do.
34:47Thea Hartswheel Russo.
34:48I do.
34:53Thea Hartswheel Russo.
34:54I do.
35:00Thea Hartswheel Russo.
35:04You don't know what's worth keeping till you've been thrown away.
35:08I don't thank the people who hurt me.
35:11But I thank myself for not stopping in that snowstorm.
35:15You've been after.
35:16I know what I cannot save for.
35:18You're supposed to cook for the internet and take it away in a row.
35:18I know what's worth it!
35:19You're I'm there, aw Sarah!
