00:01Alexander's been talking about Weah all the time now
00:04He doesn't even notice
00:05Amy with her innocent little face
00:07She just takes my husband's heart like it's nothing
00:15Don't cry, Mommy
00:16I'll always love you
00:20Both ladies have been poisoned with the same toxin
00:23But there's only one cure
00:26Alexander, do you save your wife or the lady in your arms?
00:33Save Amy first!
00:34Alexander, I'm your wife
00:36Why didn't you choose me?
00:38Veah, you have divine blood
00:39This poison won't hurt you
00:40But Amy is different
00:41She'll die without the medicine
00:43But my powers were ruined when I gave birth
00:45I'll die without it too
00:46Stop lying!
00:47The witch doctor said you're already healed
00:51Leo, are you doing this for me?
00:54Because Amy is better than you
00:56I want her to be my mom
01:04Alexander, am I going to die?
01:06You'll be fine
01:10Just wait to die, Veah
01:12You can't beat me
01:13I will turn Alexander and Leo into my most loyal followers
01:16I never should have married Alexander
01:18I kept forgiving them for choosing Amy
01:21Just to keep my family together
01:22But they stopped loving me a long time ago
01:35I'm alive?
01:36Was that a dream about the future?
01:38Veah!
01:39The little prince is throwing a tantrum
01:41He's trashing the birthday party you planned
01:47Leo, what are you doing?
01:48Get off the table right now
01:51Amy!
01:52Oh, sweetie
01:53It's your special day
01:55Who made you so mad?
01:59Amy, why is she always yelling at me?
02:03Because she's a control freak
02:06What's going on?
02:08Your son just trashed the place because he wanted wine
02:10Leo, is that true?
02:12No, that's not the whole story
02:14Leo just wanted to help with the decorations
02:16But Veah totally shut him down
02:18Right, Leo?
02:19Yes
02:20How dare you teach my son to lie right to my face?
02:26I'm just telling the truth
02:28Veah, what are you doing?
02:34Veah, you're such a disappointment
02:37Have zero patience with your own son
02:39And you're being incredibly rude to Amy
02:41We need to talk
02:42Now
02:43Fine!
02:45Fine!
02:46Why are you always picking on Amy?
02:48She hasn't his pick wrong
02:49She hasn't done anything wrong
02:51Open your eyes, Alexander
02:52You didn't even ask the maids
02:54You just took her word for it
02:55Ever since she got here
02:56You only see her
02:58That's not true
02:59Who are you trying to fool, Alexander?
03:01You know exactly how you feel about her
03:03That's ridiculous
03:05There is nothing going on between me and Amy
03:07We're just friends
03:11Then swear on it
03:12I swear
03:13I swear
03:14I don't look at Amy that way
03:20Alexander's and I used to be so happy
03:22But ever since Amy came into the picture
03:25Everything changed
03:32I've never been this happy
03:35Me either
03:37I thought it would last forever
03:39And then
03:41Amy happened
03:43Hi, I'm Amy
03:44I hope I'm not intruding
03:48Alexander's been talking about Weah all the time now
03:50He doesn't even notice
03:52Amy with her innocent little face
03:54She just takes my husband's heart like it's nothing
04:02Don't cry, Mommy
04:03I'll always love you
04:05But lately
04:06Even Leo, my own little boy
04:08He's starting to like her
04:10That woman
04:23I'm saving Amy
04:25So if that dream's real
04:26Me and Amy both dying
04:28And my husband and son choose her
04:30Together
04:30Over me
04:31No
04:32Not happening
04:33I won't let it
04:37Veah, I'm here to apologize for what happened today
04:40You came to apologize?
04:42Yeah
04:46You came to apologize
04:47So how exactly are you going to do that?
04:50I'm really sorry
04:51It was thoughtless of me
04:52I ruined your mood for Leo's birthday party
04:55But a child is innocent
04:57Please don't take this out on him
04:59Are you kidding me?
05:00He's my son
05:01And that's not even what you should be apologizing for
05:06I know
05:09This is a perfume I made
05:11It calms you down
05:12Helps you sleep better
05:16Why do you have that ruby bracelet?
05:19This?
05:19It's a gift from Alexander
05:22His way of apologizing for your rudeness
05:25That's the token of love I gave him
05:27So what?
05:29It's mine now
05:36Help!
05:38Somebody!
05:39The Duchess has gone mad
05:41She's trying to kill me!
05:54Veah!
05:56What did you do to her?
06:01Alexander, I came here to apologize
06:03But Veah
06:04She just wouldn't accept it
06:13Why did you give our token of love
06:16To that fake, pretentious woman
06:19It's just an ordinary bracelet
06:21You're like a crazy woman
06:25Veah, I have to teach you a lesson
06:32Starting now, without my order
06:34The Queen doesn't leave this room
06:52My lady, reflect
06:54Or the King won't let you out
07:04If my powers came back
07:08I wouldn't be pushed
07:09In this
07:15My lady
07:16The King has lifted your confinement
07:18Now put on your hunting clothes
07:20And come with us to the hunt
07:22I'm not going
07:25But the little prince is waiting for you
07:27At the hunt
07:27Mommy, sorry
07:28I'll hunt a dragon for you
07:30As a gift
07:30To make up for upsetting you
07:32On the day of your birthday
07:33Oh my god, he's only five
07:34There's no way he can take on a dragon
07:48I've got something to take care of
07:50Okay
07:53Veah's on her way to the hunt
07:56Nice work
07:58This time, Veah dies here
08:02When my adoptive mother learned I'd be switched at Durr
08:05She found this ring tucked in my blanket
08:07If you still have doubts
08:08Call the priests and test my blood
08:11The Sun God's bloodline should be easy enough to identify
08:14That is the ring I put on my daughter myself
08:18So it's true
08:19I'm really not the princess
08:21I'm sorry father, mother, brother
08:24I took her place and left her to suffer all alone
08:27I'll go
08:29What nonsense are you saying?
08:31Three hundred years after the Nile's great flood
08:34The two sacred realms of upper and lower Egypt stand side by side
08:39And divine blood decides everything
08:41In the poorest artisan village outside Thieves
08:45There is one name every arena gambler fears
09:01The winner, the war goddess Naga
09:08Naga
09:11Triple prize money tonight
09:18Naga
09:19Talents like yours only come around once in a hundred years
09:22But every reward you earn goes straight into those expensive herbs
09:26At this rate
09:28My sister mother Maruti can't wait
09:30But there's only a limited age window for training high-level Ankh power
09:34Sooner or later she'll become a burden to you
09:37And I keep hearing her say her greatest wish is to see you grow stronger
09:40And make something of yourself
09:42I know
09:43But I haven't found the last herb she needs
09:45I can't just leave her to die
09:50But that's the scar of blood crystal
09:54Only the purest divine bloodline can request it from the temple
10:00Is there really no way to save Maruti without giving up your training?
10:03Naga
10:04You're the pharaoh's true daughter
10:06You were switched at birth
10:09Don't worry about me
10:10Go claim your family
10:12Go claim your family
10:13They owe you
10:14Actually
10:16There is one way
10:31So you're the one claiming to carry the blood of the sun god
10:35And to be my real daughter
10:44When my adoptive mother learned I'd been switched at Durr she found this ring tucked in my blanket
10:49If you still have doubts
10:50Call the priests and test my blood
10:53The sun god's bloodline should be easy enough to identify
10:57That is the ring I put on my daughter myself
11:00So it's true
11:01I'm really not the princess
11:03I'm sorry father, mother, brother
11:06I took her place and left her to suffer all alone
11:09I'll go
11:11What nonsense are you saying?
11:14You are my sister
11:17No one can change that
11:19We grew up together for 22 years
11:25So what if the blood test proves you're the real princess?
11:29You disappeared for 22 years and only decided to come back now
11:32Don't you owe us an explanation?
11:33What do you really want?
11:35Do these people think I'm here to beg for family love?
11:38I just want medicine for my foster mother and some cultivation manuals
11:42This family looks hard to deal with
11:44Especially that fake princess
11:47Tears on command
11:48She's good
11:50Blood isn't everything
11:51And rings can be forged
11:53If someone wasn't raised in the royal court by priests
11:56Who can vouch for her character?
11:57Not everyone with the bloodline deserves that place
12:01Are you done?
12:03You're misunderstanding one thing
12:10I didn't come here to steal her love
12:13And I didn't come here to be a princess
12:16My foster mother Maroti is gravely ill
12:18She urgently needs Skaro blood crystal
12:20And only the royal court can request it from the temple
12:23She doesn't want to be a princess?
12:25That can't be right
12:26Wasn't she supposed to attack me first
12:28So I could cry
12:29Play the victim
12:30And get everyone on my side?
12:33Why is this savage not following the script?
12:41What kind of attitude is that?
12:43Go on being a loving family
12:44I won't interrupt
12:50I only want what I came for
12:52The Skaro blood crystal is in that medicine case, isn't it?
12:57So what if it is?
12:59This is a life-saving medicine reserved for the royal court on the battlefield
13:09Sure!
13:17You subdued my prized eldest son in three breaths
13:22Elias, you were careless
13:26She ambushed me
13:27If we fought fair and square, she would never be my match
13:35Enough!
13:35Haven't you embarrassed yourself enough?
13:38You have the medicine
13:38I can give you the training manuals too
13:41But with the skills you just showed, wasting away in that lowly arena would be a shame
13:45Carry Cassius blood
13:47Stay
13:50As for your foster mother Meroti
13:52I'll send the court's best physician with the medicine and have someone care for her
13:56You stay
13:57Stay in the royal court
13:59People in the royal court are not like us
14:01They'll use bloodline to pressure you
14:03Rules to cage you
14:05And family love to bind you
14:06Naga, remember this
14:08You owe me nothing
14:09Do what you want
14:11Become stronger for yourself
14:16I won't stay
14:17Silly child
14:18If they don't ask you to stay, you can come home
14:21But if they do, don't come back
14:23Promise me you won't give up any chance to become stronger because of me
14:28Okay
14:30Naga, if you want to become strong enough that no one can ever humiliate you again
14:34You'll have to face the most dangerous trial in the underworld and claim the Eye of Ra
14:39Only that power can transform you and make the mighty look up to you
14:44I can stay
14:46But I have conditions
14:48First
14:49You must guarantee my cultivation resource and never cut them
14:52Second
14:53I have my own foster mother
14:55Until I choose it willingly, I won't call you my parents
14:58Since you're staying, you should learn the rules of the royal court
15:02The morning rituals to offer sacrifice to the gods
15:04And the evening lessons for self-reflection
15:08Do those long rituals help me train Uncook power?
15:12What?
15:13If they don't help, I won't learn them
15:17You've grown wild in that savage artisan village and I won't blame you for it
15:20But remember
15:22This is the sacred royal court of Thebes
15:26I'm here to get stronger, not waste time on palace nonsense
15:29Tell me, your majesty
15:30Would you make your own son and your precious false daughter waste training time on things that don't help at
15:36all?
15:37Exactly
15:37The child raised at their side gets to train
15:39The daughter they found later gets buried under rules
15:42What a difference
15:43Morning rats and evening lessons are just formalities
15:45Who needs to study them every day?
15:47Is this really her birth mother?
15:49Naga
15:50Mother just misspoke
15:51She only wanted you to learn more about court rules
15:53I studied them too, so it's actually fair
15:56Since we're talking about fairness
15:58It shouldn't be too much for me to ask for something
16:01What do you want?
16:02I remember Kallion was given this year's first underheld trial qualification
16:08I want one too
16:12Wasn't princess Kallion already guaranteed a spot in the underworld trial?
16:16That's the most precious training opportunity this year
16:18Now this is interesting
16:20Two princesses
16:22One priceless slot
16:23How will the pharaoh settle this?
16:25If the bloodline is real
16:27Then it makes sense for the true princess to ask for the slot
16:29The false princess has taken her place for so many years
16:32Maybe it's the time she steps aside
16:34The underheld trial takes place deep inside the pyramid
16:37Even top candidates are badly hurt
16:40And some never return
16:41You've only just returned and know nothing about our sacred trial grounds
16:44Rushing in would be too dangerous
16:46Father, why not arrange an easier warrior trial path for sister?
16:51She's so talented
16:53With other resources, she'll still shine
16:55She doesn't have to risk her life
16:59Finished?
17:03Naga, I'm only worried about your safety
17:06You say the trial is dangerous and not suited for me
17:08What about you?
17:10You're fighting to join it
17:12Do you think it's dangerous?
17:14If it's so dangerous
17:16Why are you dying to go?
17:18And if it's not, then the trial is fine
17:20So stop blocking my way
17:22Or does this so-called danger only apply to me?
17:26Not to a noble princess like you
17:31Naga, you misunderstand me
17:32That's not what I meant
17:35I only meant you just came back
17:38And don't know the trial grounds
17:40I spent a decade in the pits
17:42Killing monsters and convicts
17:44If unfamiliar ground could kill me
17:46I'd be dead already
17:52Mother, I was only trying to help
17:55Why is she so mean to me?
17:57Maybe I should just pack my bags and go
17:59Then everyone would be happy
18:05Naga, Kalyan was only worried about your safety
18:08You not only, you reject her kindness
18:10Don't you think that's too much?
18:12Do you have to treat everyone like an enemy?
18:14Kalyan is trying to help you
18:15Don't be ungrateful
18:16So what you mean is
18:18When she says the trial is too dangerous for me
18:20That's concern
18:21But when I respond with logic
18:23That's me being aggressive
18:26Fine
18:27If you want to play it that way
18:29Let me be crystal clear
18:30Since she won't step down
18:31But keeps threatening to leave
18:33Let's settle this in the arena
18:34We fight for real
18:36If I win
18:37She leaves the royal court
18:39If I lose
18:40I leave immediately
18:42Do you dare?
19:01Oh, Vivian girls
19:03Quick, help her get clean
19:11That's enough
19:24Guess you're used to being a maid
19:26How about now?
19:41Princess Vivian will be awake soon
19:43Where's her breakfast?
19:44Prepare it
19:45Right now
20:09Calm, Vivi
20:15Papa
20:15Some days I can't reach my powers at all
20:18Sometimes it's overwhelming
20:19What's wrong with me?
20:21Dear, don't worry
20:22You're young
20:23Don't let this bother you
20:25It's your first day at the new school today
20:33Princess Vivian
20:34You haven't changed
20:40No, it's too flashy
20:41I'm done with dealing with simmoning followers
20:42Trying to kiss up to the princess name
20:44This is a fresh start
20:45New school
20:46New me
20:47The real me
20:50Jake, you won't have to drive me to school anymore
20:52I'll get there myself
21:03Well, hello there
21:04I'm from the silver moon pack
21:05Daughter of the biter
21:06Where are you from, newbie?
21:07Sorry, I don't come from a pack
21:08I'm the alpha princess
21:10Of course I don't belong to any pack
21:13Oh, so a packless rogue
21:14How dare you run into our ball
21:19What?
21:19You threw the ball at me?
21:21Shut up, loser!
21:22Who do you think you are talking back to us?
21:36That's enough
21:37You really don't think you'll get in trouble?
21:39Lesson number one, newbie
21:40Here at Luna Academy
21:41The rules are set by the ones on top
21:43By power and bloodline
21:44No one's gonna care about a homeless rogue like you
21:47You don't even know me
21:49I'm not some rogue
21:51Shut up, rogue
21:52I can do whatever I want to you
22:08Let me go
22:13Wait, her eyes just changed color
22:24The rumors were true
22:25The alpha princess is really transferring to Luna Academy
22:28Come on, we've got to get in with her
22:34Who is that?
22:36And why are they saying she's the alpha princess?
22:40For once, dad being the alpha king's driver has done some good for me
22:44Flashy ride to school
22:46And the Chanel dress the princess didn't want
22:48The alpha king's car
22:50You must be the alpha princess
22:51These idiots think I'm daughter of the alpha king
22:54If they think I'm the alpha princess
22:56I could rule this school
22:58Of course
22:59I'm Mia Parker
23:00Daughter of the alpha king
23:01The one and only alpha princess
23:06Who did she just say she is?
23:14You're not the alpha princess
23:23All right, let's see how long you last
23:29Who does this loser think she is?
23:43Look at Mia
23:44She's rich
23:45She's gorgeous
23:46Who else could be the alpha princess?
23:51You!
23:52You look like a bum that just crawled out of the dumpster
23:56Her royal highness was driven to school in a Rolls Royce
23:59Bearing the king's emblem
24:01You rolled in on your little skateboard
24:04Oh, I'm sorry
24:05Do you even know what a Rolls Royce is?
24:12Hey, are you all right?
24:15Oh, I'm sorry
24:17I forgot I'm allergic to poverty
24:26Oh, I'm sorry
24:27Oh, I'm sorry
24:40Oh, I'm sorry
24:41Oh, I'm sorry
24:46Oh, I'm sorry
24:46Oh, I'm sorry
24:46Oh, I'm sorry
24:47Oh, I'm sorry
24:48Oh, I'm sorry
24:48Oh, I'm sorry
24:49Hey, I'm Lily. It's nice to meet you.
24:56Hey, I'm Vivian.
24:59Look, it's the League of Losers!
25:09You want to be the Alpha Princess that badly?
25:12What will you do when I expose you as a fraud?
25:25Let's welcome our lovely Alpha Princess to Luna Academy.
25:34Thank you all for the warm welcome.
25:36Although my father is the Alpha King, there's no need for special treatment.
25:41I'd like us all to be friends.
25:47Vivian, why don't you share with the class what's so funny?
25:50Sorry, Mrs. Keener, I just...
25:52Vivian!
25:52As the lowest rank of wolf, as a rogue, you should feel honored to be classmates with the Alpha King's
25:59own daughter.
26:00How dare you show her such disrespect?
26:02Do you want detention on your first day of school?
26:05It's okay, Ms. Keener.
26:06She must be jealous that my father is the Alpha King.
26:09After all, her father might just be some poor driver.
26:14It's a blessing to all wolves to have a princess as generous as you, Your Highness.
26:18Just like your father.
26:19He's declared your birthday a national holiday this year in honor of your coming of age.
26:27Oh, I wanted to keep things low-key, but my father insisted.
26:31In fact, I've decided to invite you all to my birthday party.
26:34Well, most of you.
26:36Some people aren't invited.
26:38The princess can't be caught mingling with packless rogues, after all.
26:42You'll be throwing your party at the Royal Winery.
26:45Right, princess?
26:46I'm sure everyone would love to see it.
26:50Wow!
26:50Royal Winery is the Alpha King's private vineyard!
26:53I heard it's worth billions!
26:55And only nobility are permitted to step foot inside!
26:59There's no need to exaggerate.
27:01It's just a vineyard.
27:02Vivian, you're not jealous, are you?
27:04You're right.
27:04I'm so jealous, but I heard only the royal family have the access code.
27:09True members of the royal family.
27:10That won't be a problem for you, right?
27:12Shit.
27:12I ain't no royal family.
27:14How am I going to get that code?
27:17I'm the princess.
27:18Of course I have the code.
27:21It's just, the winery isn't for peasants like you.
27:24Oh, but I thought you wanted us all to be friends.
27:27Surely the generous Alpha Princess will be inviting all her friends to the Royal Winery, right?
27:32Princess Mia, you're so generous for inviting us.
27:34I've always wanted to see the Alpha King's winery.
27:36This is a dream come true, Mia.
27:38You're the best!
27:41Sure, no big deal.
27:43This weekend, everyone's invited to my birthday party at the Royal Winery.
27:51Except for you, Rogue.
27:53I still have standards.
27:55You are not invited.
28:02Let's see how long you can keep the act up, Your Highness.
28:21Dad, what took you so long to pick up?
28:24Sorry, sweetheart.
28:25I was busy with work.
28:26I didn't hear.
28:32Daddy, you're the Alpha King's driver.
28:34I need you to find me a way to get into the Royal Winery.
28:37I want to throw a party this weekend, and it's not like they're using it.
28:40The Royal Winery, darling.
28:42I'm just His Majesty's driver.
28:43The Alpha King was already being very generous.
28:46Helping you transfer to Luna Academy, we should...
28:48Enough!
28:49I'm sick of acting grateful when they throw us scraps off their table!
28:53It's embarrassing enough that my dad is a poor driver.
28:56Everyone's going to think I'm a loser, too.
29:00Can't you do this one little thing for me?
29:04I'll figure something out.
29:06That's more like it.
29:07Love you, Dad.
29:08Bye.
29:17Where are your manners?
29:18You should be serving Princess Mia.
29:20The help doesn't get to eat until her Hyatt's is finished with her meal.
29:25You should be honored to be serving royalty, peasant.
29:28It's proper etiquette for dining with the Alpha Princess.
29:35Since when did the Wolf Princess lose the use of her hands?
29:38If she's hungry, she can get her own food.
29:43How dare you, poor peasant!
30:09Aw, Vivian, girls, quick, help her get clean.
30:15Yes, your highness.
30:23Can't have you looking a mess around the princess.
30:32That's enough!
30:37Vivian, are you okay?
30:42Move!
30:43I'm going to change!
30:45You got the floor all dirty.
30:47Kindly clean up the mess with your hand.
30:50I won't let someone like her get to me.
31:01Guess you're used to being a maid.
31:03How about now?
31:24Food is served, your Prinus.
31:36What are you doing?
31:38Just making sure a peasant like you knows her place.
31:51Are you okay?
31:54Are you really standing up for this loser?
31:56Looks like we need to teach you a lesson.
32:01Know your place, loser.
32:06Eva, is Princess Maya is getting her ass kicked again by that loser Vivian?
32:19Attention, all students and teachers, please head to the auditorium.
32:23In five minutes, we will be holding an assembly to welcome all our new students to Luna Academy.
32:27With a special speech from Alpha Adam of the Nightshade Pack.
32:32I'm warning you!
32:33You'll be in big trouble if you don't let me go!
32:35Alpha Adam has paid his respects to me before.
32:38He'll see right through Maya's lies.
32:40Alpha Adam will expose her as an imposter in front of the entire school.
32:46Filthy bitch.
32:47Once the assembly is over, I'm going to tell the principal you had the gall to attack the Alpha Princess.
32:52I hope you enjoyed your first and last day at Luna Academy.
33:04From what they were gossiping, this Alpha Adam actually knows the Alpha Princess?
33:10Shit, then doesn't that mean he's going to tell everyone I'm not the real Alpha Princess?
33:14Fake Princess, you're about to be exposed as a fraud.
33:26Who is that?
33:28Seth Wilson.
33:29Alpha Adam's son.
33:30He's next in line to be Alpha of the Nightshade Pack.
33:32He's so strong and handsome.
33:34He's the only royal suitor that has the Alpha King support, handpicked as his daughter's fiancée.
33:39But you knew that already, Princess Mia.
33:41Right?
33:43Of course I do.
33:44It's just, Father received so many suitors for me.
33:47I can't keep track.
33:49So that's what my fiancée looks like.
33:51He smells nice, but where's Alpha Adam?
33:53I still need him to expose the fake princess.
33:56Alpha Adam has important business to take care of.
34:00His son, Seth Wilson, will be saying a few words to welcome our new students in his place.
34:07On behalf of the Nightshade Pack, and as your fellow student, welcome to Luna Academy.
34:12No matter what pack you belong to, where you are from, we hope you find this place a safe,
34:17open environment to learn among your peers, and to grow your bond with your wolf.
34:20And of course, maybe find your fated mate.
34:25Now a few words from one of our new students, the daughter of the great Alpha King himself.
34:31Please join me in welcoming the Alpha Princess.
34:34Out of my way, loser.
34:39I'd like to thank all of you for the warm welcome.
34:42My father, the Alpha King, has always made it very clear to me,
34:46nothing is more important than the purity of noble blood.
34:50For too long, Luna Academy, the most prestigious academy in our kingdom,
34:54has indulged the demands of the common folk.
34:56There are peasant wolves who do not belong here.
34:59As princess, I consider it my duty to restore Luna Academy and our kingdom
35:03back to its full glory.
35:05Ridiculous.
35:06This is the Alpha Princess, my fiancé?
35:08You've had your fun strutting around as a fake princess,
35:12but I draw the line on slandering my father's name,
35:16his life's work, his legacy.
35:23You say your father is the Alpha King.
35:26Do you know the principles by which he leads the kingdom?
35:29Dammit.
35:30What is she talking about?
35:33How dare you interrupt, her highness?
35:37Who are you to question her?
35:39He values loyalty, integrity, honesty.
35:42Not class, not rank.
35:44To degrade the dignity of commonizers
35:45goes against everything the king has fought for.
35:49Shut your mouth!
35:50Stop speaking, or you'll be expelled!
35:52Leave the auditorium right this moment!
35:56You do not have the authority to give me orders.
35:59She is not the Alpha Princess.
36:04Because I am the true Alpha Princess!
36:15Eli, why are you home so early?
36:17Grace, what are you doing?
36:19Well, if it isn't Mr. Workaholic,
36:21we're actually in the middle of something.
36:23So why don't you wait outside for us to finish?
36:27Don't worry.
36:28I'll be quick.
36:29Come on, Elijah!
36:40Can you believe it's been three years
36:42since Eli left for work?
36:44Feels like yesterday.
36:48I wonder he'll make it home for Christmas this year.
36:59Sir, it's not looking good.
37:00The hackers are about to break through the firewall.
37:02Don't let them.
37:03This is the company's lifeline.
37:05We have to protect it at all costs.
37:07My system's been hijacked!
37:09It's mine too!
37:10What do we do?
37:12How do we fix this?
37:17Elijah, we've been hacked!
37:18We need your help!
37:20What's the problem this time?
37:22Didn't I bring it under control already?
37:24There are more hackers now,
37:25and they're trying to bust through the firewall!
37:27They've already hijacked our computer systems!
37:30These fuckers are persistent, I'll give them that.
37:32These guys are using virtual IPs.
37:34They're not messing around.
37:35I've just blocked about 500 IP addresses.
37:37Jesus, Elishas.
37:39You're really going 1v500?
37:43Sir, where did Gray Tech find this Elijah guy?
37:46He's a total genius.
37:48Elijah's our ace of spades.
37:49He single-handedly developed three of the products
37:52that made Gray Tech the top tech company in the country.
37:54Oh, and he defeated KD, the world's number two hacker.
37:57Then wouldn't that make him the world's number one hacker?
38:05It's done.
38:06Elijah, you're incredible!
38:08One on 500, and you barely broke a sweat!
38:15It's been a long day.
38:17You all should get home early.
38:18You guys heard Elijah?
38:19Let's wrap up early today!
38:20An early Christmas present for everyone!
38:26Mom, what's going on?
38:28Eli, will you...
38:32Are you coming home for Christmas?
38:34I'm literally on my way.
38:35Oh, and I'll be bringing my girlfriend, too.
38:37You and Dad are going to love her.
38:40Have someone on duty in case anything comes up.
38:42If you need me, I'll be a call away.
38:44It's the holidays, Elijah.
38:45Just forget about work for a while.
38:51I don't remember scheduling a Christmas party at the office.
38:56Um, who's this?
38:58This is our CEO's daughter, Samantha Gray.
39:01She's just returned from overseas.
39:03Due to her father's poor health, she'll be acting as Gray Tech's stand-if CEO.
39:08Here's the deal, folks.
39:10I don't know how my father ran this company, but my rule number one is no slacking off during work
39:16hours.
39:17Mrs. Gray, I can explain...
39:18Silence!
39:19You're fired.
39:22Starting today, there are going to be some major changes around here.
39:25I'm going to weed out each and every slapper in this office.
39:34Elijah, you're our top programmer.
39:36Please, speak up in our defense.
39:38We've been working insane hours while everyone else is at home for the holidays.
39:41You know we don't deserve to get fired.
39:45Sama, uh, I mean, Ms. Gray.
39:47We've been working overtime every day lately.
39:50Some of us even stayed here overnight last night to help protect the company from...
39:54You're only working overnight because you waste time all day.
39:58You think our competitors are this inefficient?
40:00Working overtime doesn't give you idiots the right to bargain with me.
40:04Ms. Gray, it seems you're unaware that several days ago,
40:08we were hit with an unprecedented attack from highly sophisticated hackers.
40:12Through teamwork and days of tireless work,
40:15we were finally able to fend them off.
40:18Warding off hackers is your job.
40:20What do you want? A trophy?
40:21I've got some news for you, shit brains.
40:24All of you will be working over Christmas this year!
40:27To keep up with our competitors,
40:28we need to be constantly improving and pushing the envelope.
40:31And for anyone who stays home on Christmas,
40:34consider yourself unemployed.
40:36Ms. Gray, no one in this industry works on Christmas.
40:39It's the one day we get to be with our families.
40:41Please. Surely you can understand.
40:43Is your salary for going home and stuffing gifts into sockings?
40:46Have you forgotten who feeds you, who houses you,
40:49who gives you cars, and who pays for your children's schools?
40:51Ma'am, I agree that continuous innovation is vital.
40:53But rushing things will only lead to disaster.
40:55I suggest you reconsider.
40:57Who do you think you are questioning my decision?
41:01Ms. Gray, this is Elijah Green.
41:04He's our chief programmer.
41:05He's highly respected within the company.
41:08Even your father values his advice.
41:10Looks like my father spoiled this Elijah.
41:13If I don't bring him down,
41:14Gray Tech will turn into Green Tech sooner or later.
41:16I'll say it again.
41:17Everyone must show up on Christmas.
41:19Anyone who doesn't come in can submit their resignation.
41:21Ms. Gray, do you know how much this decision
41:23will damage employee morality?
41:24Don't be dramatic.
41:25Since when are you qualified to speak for everyone?
41:28Anyone who wants Christmas off, stand up!
41:34They're not your servants.
41:36They're people.
41:38They need a healthy work-life balance.
41:41As acting C, you have to take that into account.
41:44Or what?
41:45Are you threatening me?
41:46My decisions are for the company's long-term growth
41:48and to make sure all of you get raises.
41:51Besides, while we're all home decorating Christmas trees,
41:54who's going to solve user issues?
41:55Adam has already arranged around-the-clock coverage.
41:57No user issue will be missed.
42:01Mr. Green, you have repeatedly challenged my authority.
42:05I have no choice.
42:07You are fired.
42:15What did you just say?
42:16You heard me.
42:17My father pampering you all these years
42:19must have made you think you're hot shit.
42:21But you're in my house now,
42:22and Gray Tech is no place for arrogant praps like you.
42:25Fine then, do whatever you want.
42:27But you're making a big mistake.
42:31Wait!
42:32Before you leave,
42:34I need you to return all the confidential company data in your possession.
42:37What?
42:38I have nothing to give you.
42:39Liar!
42:40Return everything in its original form, or else!
42:43I don't know what you're talking about.
42:47Security!
42:50Stop that man!
42:51He's stealing our company's secrets and wealth!
42:54What are you waiting for?
42:55Miss Gray is your boss now.
42:57If she orders you to do something, do it!
42:59But ma'am, Mr. Grinry is...
43:00I'll tell you what he is.
43:01He's a spy and a traitor.
43:03Seize him so we can take back what's ours.
43:08That's all he has.
43:11Elijah Greens, this is your last chance.
43:14Turn over the data, now!
43:16Samantha Gray, I told you I have nothing to give you!
43:19You'll have to surrender sooner or later.
43:22And I won't just take the data.
43:23I'll take your car, your house, and your money, too!
43:27I'm not surrendering to you.
43:28All those things you mentioned were given to me by your father as tokens of appreciation.
43:32Now that he's out of the picture, what's the use in returning them?
43:34You're digging your own grave, and you're going to regret it.
43:37The word regret isn't in my vocabulary.
43:40Listen to me.
43:41Take this man's hands and beat them to a plum so that he never types on a keyboard again.
43:45Are you deaf?
43:46If you ignore my orders, I'll take you down along with him!
43:52Miss Gray, does your father know what you're doing?
43:58Miss Gray, let's not do anything rash.
44:01We can just follow protocol and take him to the police station.
44:05Once the tech world finds out what he's done, other companies won't touch him with a ten-foot rope.
44:10All right.
44:11Have him arrested and blacklisted across the entire industry.
44:16Quiet!
44:18Another word and all of you are fired!
44:22I want this man to disappear.
44:25Miss Gray, you're taking this too far!
44:29I haven't done anything illegal!
44:31You're going to pay for this.
44:33Remove him.
44:36Oh, and May, from this day on you'll be working as my personal assistant.
44:46Mr. Greens, we were just following orders.
44:48You're free to go now.
44:51But we'll take care of it.
44:52Get out of here and don't look back.
44:54Thank you both.
44:55I won't forget this.
44:59Ava, I have some important news.
45:01Elijah Green has been fired from Gray Tech.
45:02You're his first love, right?
45:03Get in touch with him and convince him to join Eagle Tech.
45:05We need him on our side at all costs.
45:07Yes, sir.
45:07I'll get right on it.
45:09Elijah Green got sacked?
45:10This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
45:11I have to recruit him to join Sky Tech.
45:13What?
45:14Elijah Green's got laid off?
45:15You mean the lead programmer at Gray Tech?
45:17If we bring him on board, Lions Tech will catapult to the top of the tech world.
45:20We can't let this chance pass us up.
45:25Elijah, I heard you got fired.
45:27I'd like to formally offer you the role of lead engineer at Eagle Tech.
45:30We would be overjoyed to have someone like you on our team.
45:32Ava, I literally just got fired.
45:34I'm not in the mood for this now.
45:35All I want to do is go home and enjoy the holidays.
45:40All this time, I've been getting home late after Grace is asleep.
45:43But when she gets back today, I'm going to finally propose to her and then take her to meet my
45:47family.
45:48Derek, why so rough?
45:50Come on, I've been waiting forever.
45:52Now that your aunt's gone, we can finally get it on.
45:55I can wait to bring Grace to mom and dad.
45:57Derek, we should really do this somewhere else.
46:00What if he comes back?
46:01See?
46:02Nothing to be afraid of.
46:03That loser just got fired from Gray Tech and banned across the industry.
46:06If he was still lead programmer, I might fear him a little bit, but now he's just some jobless schmuck.
46:19Eli, why are you home so early?
46:21Grace, what are you doing?
46:23Well, if it isn't Mr. Workaholic, we're actually in the middle of something.
46:28So why don't you wait outside for us to finish?
46:31Don't worry.
46:32I'll be quick.
46:33Come on, Elijah.
46:35How much longer are you going to keep fooling yourself?
46:37Grace, why are you treating me like this after all I've done for you?
46:40What exactly have you done for me?
46:42I bet you can't even tell me one single thing that you did for me.
46:44You see that bag?
46:45Derek, spend $100,000 on it for me.
46:47Did you ever get me anything that nice?
46:48Material objects don't prove a person's love?
46:51Eli, as far as I know, you're unemployed.
46:53You can't even put food on the table, so don't come to me with these abstract muses on love.
46:58Face it.
46:58You're a capital-L loser.
47:01A beauty like Grace needs a real man in her life.
47:04But you?
47:05You're a fucking joke.
47:07Yeah, Derek's dad is Rick Henderson, vice president of Eagle Solutions,
47:11a subsidiary of the second biggest tech company in the country.
47:15That means Derek has superior DNA.
47:17Can you blame me for choosing him?
47:19Grace, our love, does it really mean nothing to you?
47:24Love?
47:25Can love put me in a mansion or a convertible?
47:26Can love give me the life I've always dreamed of?
47:29Derek is the only one who can offer that.
47:31Elisha, I never want to see you again.
47:34All right, I guess you've shown me your true colors.
47:37Starting today, let's go our separate ways and forget we ever happened.
47:40But don't come crying if this decision comes back to bite you!
47:43Crying over you?
47:44Please, you're not worth a single tear.
47:47Elijah Green really made a run for it?
47:49God, that guy is something else.
47:52May, make sure he doesn't get off easy.
47:54Of course, I won't disappoint you.
47:58Don't worry, Miss Gray.
47:59Elijah has a surnamo of trouble heading his way.
48:03How about this?
48:04Grace technically remains your girlfriend,
48:07but you can't stop me when I want to see her.
48:09The thrill of stealing her from you is just too addicting.
48:12Derek, you're so naughty.
48:14It's fine, I don't want her anymore.
48:16Enjoy my sloppy seconds.
48:17And mark my words,
48:18I'm going to get even with you fools one day.
48:23So you're going to get even, huh?
48:25We'll see about that, Elijah.
48:28Elijah said he'd be back for the holidays,
48:31but it's Christmas Day and there's still no sign of him.
48:37Sadie, get out here!
48:44Merry Christmas, Steven.
48:46Christmas, my ass.
48:47I'm here for the money you owe me.
48:48You know how things are with Mark right now.
48:50We're doing our best, can you just...
48:52Sadie, spare me the sorry excuses.
48:54I already did you a favor by not showing up on Thanksgiving.
48:56Now I've run out of patience.
48:58I know, but we just don't have the money yet.
49:04You don't have the money, huh?
49:06No sweat.
49:07I've got an idea.
49:09What kind of idea?
49:10Dad, doesn't Uncle Mark owe us 100,000 bucks?
49:13Get this, Elisha pissed off Derek,
49:15and Derek asked us to get back at him.
49:16He said if we do a good job, he'll give us a million-dollar reward.
49:21That's awesome!
49:23Your son just has to kill someone.
49:27Kill someone?
49:29If you agree, I'll write off your debt,
49:31and you'll get a million-dollar reward!
49:34He just has to kill one person.
49:35Plus, a family like yours can't afford to be picky right now.
49:39Nora?
49:39That would be Ms. Nora Green,
49:41the newest sales manager at Eagle Solutions,
49:43a subsidiary of the famous Eagle Tech.
49:45A woman with a very promising career ahead of her.
49:47This is a contract from Derek Henderson, son of Rick Henderson.
49:50These are the terms.
49:51They have an enemy that they need to disappear.
49:53If Elijah can take him out,
49:54the Hendersons will give you one million dollars as a reward.
49:57It's a sweet deal.
49:58Sign the contract while you still can.
50:03Nora, how could you be so cruel?
50:05You're asking Eli to kill somebody?
50:08Who knows, maybe it's his calling to be a hitman.
50:10Plus, if Elijah gains the respect of the Henderson family,
50:13you guys are set for life.
50:15Nora, Steven, please don't ask this of us.
50:18Eli wouldn't hurt a fly.
50:19You haven't seen him for three years.
50:20He could have changed, for all you know.
50:22Just sign the contract, and you'll get to spend your old life in peace.
50:24Please, just wait a little longer for the money.
50:26Eli told me he's bringing his girlfriend back for Christmas this year.
50:29He'll think of something.
50:34Sadie, show some common sense.
50:36Elijah's just a child in an adult body.
50:38Why are you still holding out hope for him?
50:39No, he's really coming back this time.
50:42He called me yesterday, and he told me he was coming home.
50:45Are you signing or not, you old hag?
50:47Don't make me get my hands dirty.
50:48I'm not turning my son into a murderer!
50:53All right, you wrinkly bitch.
50:55Let's see what you'll choose, your son or your life.
51:02Let go of my mom!
51:07Mom, are you okay?
51:10I'm fine, Eli.
51:12I'm just happy to see you.
51:16It's Christmas.
51:17Shouldn't you be at home celebrating?
51:19Look who the cat dragged in.
51:20You finally decided to show up, huh?
51:22And not even a long time no see, Uncle Steven, or a how-have-you-been-Uncle Steven?
51:25Must have got those manners from your mother.
51:28Eli just got back, and he's probably cold after the trip.
51:33Why don't we take things inside?
51:42Dad, I had no idea you were so sick.
51:45Why didn't you tell me?
51:48One day he got sick out of the blue since around Thanksgiving last year.
51:52Here, they're homemade.
51:54I don't need your fake hospitality.
51:55Let's cut to the chase.
51:57Elijah, your mother owes me 500,000 bucks, and she said you'd have it when you came back.
52:02Come on, pay up!
52:03Mom, what's this about?
52:04Why do you owe Uncle Steven so much money?
52:06Eli, this whole thing is such a mess.
52:08Last fall, your father needed life-saving surgery, and I had to borrow the money from Steven.
52:13But I never thought he would-
52:15How did 100 grand turn into 500?
52:16You're taking advantage of my mother.
52:17This is extortion!
52:18Technically, it should be a lot more than 500.
52:20That's with a family discount included.
52:22I'm trying to make things easier.
52:24You're hiking up the interest rate.
52:25This is against the law.
52:27Against the law?
52:28Around here, I am the law.
52:29Elijah, this isn't a matter of right and wrong.
52:31It's simple.
52:32Either you give me the money, or you're carrying out a hit for the Henderson family.
52:41Your uncle told me that if we don't give them the money, they're going to force you
52:45to kill an enemy of the Henderson family.
52:47What?
52:48They want to turn me into a hitman?
52:50I refuse to comply with such an outrageous arrangement.
52:53We're taking this to court!
52:54Please, don't be so naive.
52:55I forgot to tell you, I've been promoted to sales manager of Eagle Solutions.
52:59With the type of lawyer I can afford, you wouldn't stand a chance.
53:02That's right!
53:03Not to mention, we've got the Hendersons in our corner, and their son is on excellent
53:06terms with Nora.
53:07We're basically untouchable around here.
53:09The Henderson's son?
53:10You mean Derek Henderson?
53:11I should have figured you were running in the same circles.
53:14Does the president of Eagle Solutions know about what you're doing?
53:16How about Eagle Tech CEO John Eagle?
53:18Wow, you've really done your homework.
53:20But no amount of knowledge can make up for the fact that you're a penniless loser.
53:27Breaking news.
53:28In an unexpected turn of events at the world-famous company Gray Tech, renowned lead programmer
53:32Elijah Green has been fired after violating company policy.
53:35They will be considered a mortal enemy.
53:37Gray Tech's lead programmer is also named Elijah Green, and he just got fired.
53:41Elijah, are they talking about you?
53:42That's right, it's me.
53:44Is it true what they said on the news?
53:48Don't worry, Mom.
53:50It's just a small setback.
53:51I'll be fine.
53:52Elijah, if you've got any sense in you, you'll hurry up and sign that contract.
53:56Don't worry, Mom and Dad.
53:57Sign it!
53:58And your mom and dad will get a million-dollar reward.
54:02Otherwise, if you die one day, and your parents have no one to support them, they'll end up
54:06begging on the streets.
54:07I'm not killing someone.
54:08As for the money, all I can do is pay you back the 100 grand at a normal interest rate.
54:14I'm trying to help you!
54:15The least you could do is show a little gratitude!
54:18You need to get one thing straight.
54:19I'm not some pussover that you can manipulate as you please.
54:22And you need to get one thing straight.
54:24Eagle Tech is the second biggest tech company in the world.
54:27If you turn down the Henderson family, they have a million ways to make you disappear.
54:32Is that a threat?
54:34Nora, I thought you'd have this taken care of by now.
54:41Derek, Merry Christmas!
54:44I didn't know you were going to come all the way here.
54:46Merry Christmas, Mr. Henderson.
54:48I'm Nora's father, Stephen.
54:49My brother's family here are an ungrateful bunch.
54:51They even had the nerve to reject your offer.
54:53I thought you'd know better than to say no to the Henderson family.
54:56You again, huh?
54:56I knew you were a scumbag, but this is a whole new extreme!
55:00Wait, you two know each other?
55:01Of course we do.
55:03I can't seem to escape this guy lately.
55:05Yeah, I know this chump.
55:06Matter of fact, I was just at his place yesterday, having some fun with his girlfriend.
55:12Derek, you're such a bad boy.
55:15Relax.
55:16She'll never take your place in my heart.
55:18Get out of my house!
55:19If you don't leave, I'm calling the cops!
55:21Go ahead, call them.
55:23Once they see I'm involved, it's game over for you, bud.
55:26Elijah, you might as well sign the contract now.
55:29If Derek's in a good mood, he might even give your parents a little extra cash.
55:32Yes, not a bad idea. If you sign now, I'll fork out two million. How about that?
55:36Elijah, see how considerate Mr. Henderson is being?
55:39You'd have to be a fool to turn down that offer.
55:41This is unbelievable! You clowns are no better than animals!
55:44I'm going to bring you to justice!
55:46You aren't going to do jack shit!
55:48Guys, I've had it with this ungrateful bastard!
55:50Trash the room, now!
55:54Eli, maybe you should just sign it.
55:56That person they want you to kill is probably corrupt and evil anyway, and it'll save our family!
56:01I'm not doing it. I'll cut my own hand off before I sign that paper.
56:05Then, what should we do?
56:07Indeed, what should we do?
56:09You know, this lady might be past her prime, but she still has a certain charm about her.
56:15Tell you what, if you come over here and kiss me right here, we can forget about this contract.
56:20Oh, and I get to use my tongue.
56:24God, Derek, you really have no chill.
56:28Sadie, this is your last chance.
56:30Give Derek what he wants.
56:31And not only will Elijah not have to kill anyone, I won't ask you to pay me back.
56:35You best think long and hard.
56:37Come on.
56:38I'm ready for you.
56:40Leave my mother out of this, you filthy swine!
56:44Fine.
56:44Let's see how much longer you can resist.
56:47Guys, bring the old man over here!
56:53Keep your hands off my dad!
56:56You pigs!
56:58Let go of my dad before I beat your asses!
57:03Please stop!
57:04You'll hurt him!
57:05I'm begging you!
57:05What, you think I was joking around?
57:08Do what I said, and I'll let your crippled husband and your low-life son off the hook.
57:13All right.
57:14I'll do it.
57:16Mom, no!
57:17Don't do it!
57:18Mom, stop!
57:20You can't let them win!
57:22Mom!
57:26Nora!
57:27Have you lost your conscience?
57:29She's your aunt!
57:30Are you really just gonna stand here and watch this guy assault her?
57:32Please.
57:33All we share is a last name.
57:34If she gets assaulted, that's on you!
57:36If you had any status at all, no one would dare touch her.
57:38You're sick!
57:40You care more about money and power than your own kin!
57:43Oh, come on.
57:44What do I get from being your kin anyway?
57:46You and your parents are dead to me.
57:49If Derek touches my mother, I'm gonna make you all suffer!
57:53And just how do you plan to do that?
57:54I could make sweet love to your mother right in front of you,
57:57and there'd be nothing you could do to stop me.
58:00No!
58:06Hello?
58:07Is Elijah home?
58:09Ah, Miss Cross, what an unexpected pleasure this is.
58:12And Mr. Sky and Mr. Lyons as well.
58:14On Christmas Day, nonetheless.
58:17Miss Cross, are you the Miss Cross from Eagle Tech?
58:21You and these two gentlemen, please, you have to help my son Elijah!
58:27You have to save our family!
58:30You and these two gentlemen, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please,
58:30please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please,
58:30please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please,
58:31please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please,
58:31please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please,
58:32please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please
58:33You
