08:43that night changed nothing
08:47I didn't say that because I regret it
08:50then why
08:51because I'm not respectable enough
08:53because I know exactly how this family
08:55would destroy you
08:56I can survive whatever they do to me
08:58I can't survive watching them do it to you
09:02this only hurts me more

11:37I'm fine
11:56you seem nervous tonight
11:59it's just a holiday dinner
12:01really
12:03I thought maybe there was a secret hiding under the table
12:20this is your place
12:22I stay here when work runs late
12:24no house
12:24there's cameras
12:26no my father's people
12:29are you here alone a lot
12:32most of the time
12:40you don't look happy
12:42back then I kept telling myself I'd leave someday
12:47then why didn't you
12:51because I thought I wanted nothing
12:55until you
13:13Noah I know you're in there
13:14open the door
13:15go to the bedroom
13:17stay quiet
13:19so I still have to hide right
13:36up this late
13:38what are you doing here
13:41I just wanted to see what's been keeping you so busy lately
13:43you've seen enough
13:45you can leave now
13:48you're in a terrible mood tonight
13:52is it because someone else is here
13:56you're crossing a line
13:57really
13:59because lately you look like a man hiding something precious
14:02don't be late for the media shoot next week
14:04we need to look more convincing as a couple
14:07good night Noah
14:12what was I just now
14:14Aiden
14:15like a lover
14:16no
14:17like a boyfriend
14:18even less
14:20I looked like a secret
14:21shoved behind a door
14:23I was protecting you
14:25that's what you always say
14:27then why does the person being protected
14:29feel nothing but shame
14:32give me some time
14:34I don't want to be your secret forever
14:41closer
14:42more natural
14:45smile more naturally
14:46the public loves stability
14:53Aiden
14:53what do you think of this tie
14:55it looks good
14:58Noah likes it too
15:03we're adding an embrace shot
15:05we need people to believe it's real
15:07Noah tilt your head lower
15:08Victoria move closer to him
15:13this shot is definitely making headlines
15:15excellent
15:16that's exactly the effect we needed
15:21looks like today went wonderfully
15:25Aiden
15:27that's in the mail
15:28let me explain
15:29explain what
15:31why you didn't pull away
15:32or why you looked so much like
15:34you belong to her
15:36it was all for them
15:38but what I saw felt real enough
15:57you can't just disappear like this
16:00aren't you the one who's best at making me disappear
16:05I didn't have a choice in that shoot
16:12Aiden look at me
16:17you never have a choice
16:19no choice about the engagement
16:21no choice about holding her
16:23kissing her
16:23and admitting me
16:31then when are you ever going to see me a second
16:46thank you for meeting me
16:49what do you want to say
16:50don't be so tense
16:52I'm just curious why Noah has been paying so much attention to you lately
16:56maybe because we live in the same house
16:59you know Noah wasn't always like this
17:01he used to smile
17:02he used to trust people
17:04now there are very few people who can make him lose control
17:08maybe you know him better than I do
17:11really?
17:12because I keep thinking the way he looks at you doesn't feel very fomential
17:17you're overthinking it
17:19and you?
17:21when you look at him what does it look like to you?
17:24if you care that much ask Noah directly
17:26oh I will
17:27but before that I wanted to see how you lie
17:30if you invited me here to humiliate me congratulations
17:34no Aiden
17:35I won't be the one humiliating you
17:36it'll be the look on your face when you can't hide it anymore
17:47it's me
17:48keep watching them
17:50I want time, place, and proof strong enough to ruin them
17:53understood
18:11you've barely eaten these past few days
18:15but Aiden, you want some of your breakfast one?
18:17I'm fine
18:20when you lied as a child you always looked down first
18:30mom, please don't ask
18:32if someone has hurt you I have a right to know
18:37no one is hurting me
18:39then why do you look like you're falling apart?
18:50the engagement preparations cannot be delayed any longer
18:52you've been unstable lately
18:54you're not worried about me
18:55you're worried about your campaign
18:56I care that this family does not become a scandal
18:59especially after you started behaving dangerously
19:04what exactly are you saying?
19:06I'm reminding you not to bring certain unacceptable impulses into this house
19:15who is it?
19:18it's me
19:21you shouldn't be here
19:25I just needed to know you were okay
19:34whose door were you standing at last night?
19:38that's none of your business
19:39everything about you is my business
19:42especially before you drag this entire family into the mud
19:45you control my work
19:46my life
19:46my marriage
19:47now you're policing how long I stand outside a door
19:49I'm stopping you from making a mistake that would destroy you
19:52you're not afraid for me
19:53you're afraid for the image you built
19:55listen carefully
19:57before the election I will allow no scandal
19:59especially not the kind that is abnormal
20:02disgusting
20:03and enough to turn every supporter against us
20:06you make me sick
20:07then don't force me to be even clearer
20:10I will roof you
20:12and if you're looking for online외ure
20:15you say
20:15oh no
20:16no
20:33no
20:33no
20:34no
20:35laughing
20:35some
20:37bin
20:38will
20:38find out
20:38on the
20:39rule
20:39more
20:39I
20:40will
20:40have
20:40Aiden, it's me.
20:49Who sent this?
20:52I don't know, but they got us.
20:55Come with me.
20:57Where?
21:00Somewhere no one knows us.
21:09How much longer can we keep hiding?
21:12When I was younger, I thought if I obeyed enough, one day he'd finally be satisfied.
21:16Then I realized with a man like him, satisfaction is never the end, it's just another chain.
21:21Then without that house, without his name, who would you be?
21:24Maybe just an ordinary man who comes home from work, cooks terrible dinners,
21:27wastes whole weekends with the person he loves.
21:30That sounds better than the Carlisle mansion.
21:32I'm afraid I can't give you that life.
21:34Do you think I care about the mansion?
21:35I was never afraid of being poor.
21:37I'm afraid of the way you keep pushing me away.
21:41Noah, I love you.
21:42You love me?
21:44Yes.
21:45Even if it's a disaster, even if it's dangerous, I still love you.
21:54I love you too.
22:20This early?
22:21I think you should see this.
22:26I didn't want to embarrass you.
22:28But pretending not to see it would only make things worse.
22:32Where did these come from?
22:34Does it matter?
22:35What matters is that they've turned the Carlisle family into a joke behind your back.
22:42I think you should have a talk with Noah before the media does.
22:48Send Noah to my study.
22:51Now.
23:00Explain.
23:05Do you understand what this would destroy if it got out?
23:07It was never going to destroy me.
23:09No.
23:11It destroys me.
23:12My campaign, my name, my family.
23:16So you finally said the truth.
23:17Listen, Noah.
23:18If you want to ruin yourself, fine.
23:21But I will not let anyone, especially that boy you've become obsessed with, drag me down with you.
23:26Don't you dare touch him.
23:28Oh, I dare.
23:29I can destroy him.
23:30Destroy his mother and leave them with nothing.
23:33You're insane!
23:34Insane!
23:34Then remember this.
23:36If you want to keep him safe, stay away from him.
23:42Don't be nervous.
23:43What do you want from me?
23:46Your mother loves the life she has now.
23:48A respectable marriage, a stable home, a second chance.
23:52If you don't want all of that to disappear overnight, stay away from my son.
23:56Otherwise, Helen leaves with nothing.
23:59And the two of you will go right back to where you belong.
24:04You're disgusting.
24:07Yet disgusting men are usually the ones who win.
24:20What happened?
24:36Why have you been avoiding me?
24:39Because I'm done playing.
24:41What do you mean?
24:43I mean, did you really think I'd throw away my life for a relationship that has to stay hidden?
24:48That's not who you are.
24:50How much do you actually know me?
24:53Maybe I got close to you because you're a Carlisle.
24:56You're lying.
24:57Am I?
24:59You can give me a mansion, money, status.
25:02But you can't even admit me in daylight.
25:05I'm done playing this little affair game with you.
25:09So everything you said was fake?
25:11Yes.
25:13Including when I said I loved you.
25:28Get out.
25:32Gladly.
25:36The Carlisle family is expected to announce a major engagement soon.
25:48If you're not feeling well, we can leave.
25:52I'm fine.
25:55Thank you all for being here tonight.
25:57To me, family has always been the greatest value.
26:00So tonight, I'm honored to share some wonderful news with all of you.
26:04My son Noah is going to be engaged to Victoria.
26:09Thank you, everyone.
26:11Noah and I are both very excited for the future.
26:18Aiden.
26:20You'll congratulate us, won't you?
26:24Of course.
26:25I wish, wish you a lifetime of happiness.
26:28How sweet of you.
26:29You stay tuned for the future.
26:31I'm done.
26:40I'll be back in the next episode.
26:41I'm here.
26:46How sweet of you will be.
26:46I'm here.
26:47I'm here.
26:48How sweet of you is.
26:50I'm here.
27:07Noah!
27:09Stop!
27:15Pick up the phone.
27:17Please pick up.
27:20What did you say to him?
27:23I said nothing.
27:25He would not just disappear for no reason!
27:27Don't make this public.
27:29Tomorrow the press will continue covering the engagement.
27:32My son is missing!
27:34Then find him.
27:36Quietly.
27:44Hello?
27:55Where is Aiden?
27:57Don't be so hostile.
27:59Sit.
28:00Let's talk.
28:00I'll ask again.
28:01Where is he?
28:03He's safe for now.
28:04You touched him!
28:06No.
28:07Your father drove him away.
28:09I just saw the board more clearly than you did.
28:13What do you want?
28:14Finally.
28:15The right question.
28:16I want the wedding to proceed as planned.
28:20You keep playing the perfect heir.
28:22And I become the future Miss Carlisle.
28:27You think I'd agree to that?
28:28If you don't, you know exactly what Richard will do.
28:31He'll destroy Aiden first, then Helen.
28:34And what I have will make sure they never get the chance to fight back.
28:38Don't look at me like that.
28:39At least I'm offering you a choice.
28:42Your father wouldn't.
28:45If I cooperate, Aiden stays safe.
28:49I'll do my best to keep Richard away from them.
28:55Is he safe right now?
29:05Were you trying to scare me to death?
29:09Yes.
29:10I fell in love with him.
29:16What did Richard say to you?
29:18He said if I didn't leave Noah, you'd leave with nothing.
29:24I couldn't gamble with your life.
29:26So I had to leave.
29:27You foolish boy!
29:29I can lose the house, the marriage, the status, but I cannot watch you bury your heart with it.
29:37Running is not the answer.
29:39If you still love him, then stop running.
29:46You win.
29:48Don't make it sound so ugly.
29:49We're simply getting what we need.
29:52And what exactly do you need?
29:53Position.
29:55Contracts.
29:56Half of the future power of the Carlisle family.
29:59Love was never on my list.
30:01There can be no mistakes tomorrow.
30:03This will be the most important day for the Carlisle family.
30:07Are you sure?
30:10If I don't go, I'll regret it for the rest of my life.
30:29This is...
30:30Get him out of here.
30:35Aiden.
30:36You'd better leave right now.
30:38Oh my God!
30:39It's the stepson!
30:40Keep shooting!
30:43How dramatic.
30:44I wasn't going to come.
30:45I was going to do what I always do.
30:47Step back and then step back again.
30:48But then I realized I've spent my whole life giving things up.
30:51I gave way to poverty, to humiliation, to this family.
30:55I refuse to give up love too.
30:59Noah, do not say a word.
31:01Don't marry her!
31:03The person you love is me!
31:14Don't you dare take another step!
31:18You've controlled me long enough.
31:24The person I've loved all along is him.
31:28You've...
31:29You've lost your mind!
31:30No.
31:32I'm finally refusing to live for you anymore.
31:36Beautiful speech.
31:37But if you hadn't seduced him, would he be here now?
31:39You want to put all of this on me?
31:41Then what about the photos, the surveillance, and the deal you offered Noah?
31:45What deal?
31:46You're not the victim.
31:47You knew about Noah and me long before this.
31:49You used those photos as leverage to force him into this wedding.
31:52You never wanted love.
31:53You wanted your place in the Carlisle family.
31:54She has photos?
31:55This is bigger than a wedding store!
31:57Fine.
31:57If we're tearing this open, let's tear it all the way open.
32:01You think I'm the dirtiest person here?
32:03Then let's show the contracts to the press.
32:08Here are the private agreements signed by Richard and my father.
32:11If Noah and I go through with the marriage,
32:14future Carlisle Foundation projects will be funneled to my family's business.
32:18Give me that!
32:23Richard, we need to leave immediately.
32:25The media is already going live with this.
32:31I've had enough.
32:34I thought I married a man who could give my son and me a new life.
32:38But now I see I didn't marry into a family.
32:40I married into a performance!
32:43I want a divorce.
32:45I'm not coming back.
32:48Do you have any idea what you're giving up?
32:51I do.
32:53I'm giving up the life you chose for me.
33:06What now?
33:08I don't know.
33:09But for the first time, that's okay.
33:20I don't know.
33:22I don't know.
33:24I don't know.
33:26Don't laugh.
33:28I haven't said anything yet.
33:31I'm just trying to prove I can actually make dinner.
33:35So far, the evidence is weak.
33:47I knew the two of you wouldn't survive your first week on your own.
33:51Hey!
33:52You came at exactly the right time.
33:55Take care of him.
33:59I will.
34:03Do you ever regret it?
34:07Leaving that house, that name, everything that was supposed to be yours?
34:12No.
34:13For the first time in my life, I'm not living as the person someone else wanted me to be.
34:18I'm living as myself.
34:25This feels strange.
34:28Strange good or strange bad?
34:31Strange good.
34:36Like I'm waiting for someone to tell me it's not real.
34:40It's real.
34:44It's real.
34:45Not bad.
34:46For a first try.
34:48Just not bad?
34:50Okay, it's terrible.
34:51But I don't care.
34:54What are we going to do now?
34:55Like, for real?
34:56Find jobs.
34:57Pay rent.
34:58Make dinner.
35:00Mess up.
35:01Try again.
35:03That sounds...
35:04Terrifying.
35:05Yeah.
35:06But for the first time, I'm not scared of my own life.
35:13I used to lie awake in the mansion, thinking I didn't belong there.
35:17And now?
35:20Now I know I belong here.
35:22With you.
35:25Goodnight, Aiden.
35:30Goodnight.
35:38The bread is burning.
35:40Let it burn.
35:42You're ridiculous.
35:45We'll get better at this.
35:47At what?
35:48Cooking or being together?
35:49Both.
35:56I never thought I'd be happy being ordinary.
35:59Me neither.
36:00But ordinary feels pretty good.
36:04I got an interview.
36:06See?
36:07We're figuring it out.
36:08Do you miss it?
36:09The money.
36:11The power.
36:12I miss none of it.
36:14I miss having a father who actually loved me.
36:17But I never had that.
36:19You have me.
36:21That's more than enough.
36:26You two look good.
36:30Mom.
36:32Thank you, Helen.
36:34For everything.
36:35Take care of each other.
36:37You two.
36:38We'll be okay.
36:45What are you thinking?
36:47That maybe real is better than perfect.
