00:00:08I woke up in a stranger's bed, but the stranger was my boss.
00:00:24Marry me.
00:00:25He wanted to buy me, like I was a company.
00:00:36The man I loved and the friend I trusted, they were both lying to me.
00:00:48So I signed.
00:00:50Not for love.
00:00:52For revenge.
00:00:58Just a weak assistant.
00:01:04They thought I was broken.
00:01:06They had no idea.
00:01:07I was just getting started.

00:05:19probably a model he took home from the gala that's what everyone is saying
00:05:24they're all trying to guess you
00:05:28Andrews. This sketch, it's disruptive. I want you taking notes in the 2pm concept meeting.
00:05:37Nothing, sir. I, I, yes, of course.
00:05:54Design department, Holly Andrews.
00:05:56Mrs. Andrews, Mr. Gardner would like to see you in his office. Now.
00:06:03I'm in the middle of preparing for the-
00:06:05Now, Mrs. Andrews.
00:06:20Of course, but get this.
00:06:22Ezra Gardner was seen driving a woman out of the garage Saturday morning in the Maybach.
00:06:26He was she?
00:06:27No idea, but the rumor is she was wearing runway Chanel.
00:06:33Whoever she is, she won't last.
00:06:35Ezra Gardner doesn't do relationships.
00:06:53Is the air conditioning and design malfunctioning?
00:06:55Uh, no, Mr. Gardner. It's quite comfortable.
00:06:59It must be freezing to warrant such heavy wool.
00:07:02I, I run cold.
00:07:05Really? That wasn't my impression.
00:07:09Stay.
00:07:16Your tag is sticking out.
00:07:18Hide it well, Hallie.
00:07:21I don't like sharing what's mine.
00:07:25Into my office.
00:07:26Now.
00:07:44You wanted to see me, Mr. Gardner?
00:07:51It says, Hallie Andrews declined your request.
00:07:55Is this how you treat your fiancé?
00:07:59I'm not your fiancé.
00:08:03We are negotiating.
00:08:05And declining a friend request is a poor opening move, Hallie.
00:08:20The prenuptial agreement.
00:08:22Draft one.
00:08:27You can't be serious.
00:08:29The allowance?
00:08:30It's more than my annual salary.
00:08:32I am always serious about my investments.
00:08:35I am not an investment.
00:08:39I want my life back.
00:08:42I want to be invisible again.
00:08:44I notice assets others overlook, Hallie.
00:08:48For instance,
00:08:49your particular interest in Senator Grimes.
00:08:54How, how do you know about that?
00:08:56I told you.
00:08:57I verify my investments.
00:09:03You're chasing a ghost.
00:09:05A junior assistant will never get close enough to ask him your questions.
00:09:09And you think you can help?
00:09:11I don't think.
00:09:12I know.
00:09:15Being Mrs. Ezra Gardner puts you at his table.
00:09:18It forces him to acknowledge you.
00:09:22Why?
00:09:23Why are you doing this for me?
00:09:25Because I always acquire what catches my eye.
00:09:32I need time.
00:09:34Take it.
00:09:35But while you think,
00:09:37check your phone.
00:09:42Accept my friend request.
00:09:49Good.
00:09:50Now go back to work.
00:09:53What?
00:09:55And Hallie?
00:09:57Cancel your dinner plans.
00:09:59I have a date with Irvin.
00:10:02Not anymore.
00:10:12Whoa.
00:10:13You okay?
00:10:14You look...
00:10:15green.
00:10:17Bad sushi.
00:10:18I just threw up everything.
00:10:20Are you sure it's not?
00:10:21Morning sickness.
00:10:23Morning sickness.
00:10:25Definitely not.
00:10:26Just food poisoning.
00:10:33Hallie!
00:10:33Look!
00:10:34The all-company email!
00:10:37You're on the S-Country Fashion Week list.
00:10:39My name was at the bottom of the list.
00:10:41This was Ezra's doing.
00:10:43He was manipulating my entire career.
00:10:46I don't care if he's in a board meeting with him.
00:10:49He can't just do this to me.
00:10:53He left this for you, Ms. Andrews.
00:10:55This is your chance to prove you are not just a pretty face.
00:10:58Don't waste it.
00:11:05Babe!
00:11:06Saw the list.
00:11:07We can turn this into a romantic vacation.
00:11:11A romantic vacation?
00:11:13Now you want to be seen with me?
00:11:15Feeling sick?
00:11:18Liar.
00:11:19Finley left something at the front desk for you.
00:11:22Mr. Butler said this was urgent.
00:11:24Inside the bag was a thermist of ginger soup.
00:11:26He knew.
00:11:28He knew.
00:11:28He knew I took the pill.
00:11:30He thinks he can control me with soup?
00:11:32Make me compliant?
00:11:38I drank just enough to settle my stomach.
00:11:41Then walked to the nearest trash can.
00:11:43Did you clear the security logs from the pharmacy?
00:11:46And the lobby footage.
00:11:48No record of her illness exists.
00:11:51Drive.
00:11:53To us, Hallie.
00:11:55And to your big break.
00:12:01You smell like Chanel No 5.
00:12:04That's Leah's signature scent.
00:12:06I must have walked through her perfume cloud at the office.
00:12:09Now about S-Country.
00:12:11I'm thinking of heading out a few days early.
00:12:13A few days early?
00:12:15Sounds busy.
00:12:16Excuse me for a moment.
00:12:30I hope Leah is okay.
00:12:32She just told me she's terribly sick.
00:12:36Oh?
00:12:37That's too bad.
00:12:45Actually, babe, I totally forgot.
00:12:48I have a conference call with the Tokyo team in 30 minutes.
00:12:51I have to cut this short.
00:12:53Of course.
00:12:54Work first.
00:12:57Just wait a second.
00:13:08Leah.
00:13:10Driver.
00:13:12Take me home.
00:13:16Together.
00:13:19Get me home.
00:13:21Oh.
00:13:23Yeah.
00:13:24Uh.
00:13:29Yeah.
00:13:33Yeah.
00:13:38شوhi.
00:13:40I don't know.
00:13:43Going up?
00:13:45Are you following me?
00:13:47It's my building, Hallie.
00:13:49I'm everywhere.
00:13:55My phone.
00:13:56Where is it?
00:13:57No, no, no.
00:13:58It's shattered.
00:14:00The evidence.
00:14:01I had everything.
00:14:02Forget the phone.
00:14:03Are you injured?
00:14:04I'm fine.
00:14:06But I lost the proof.
00:14:09We're stuck.
00:14:10The emergency button is dead.
00:14:14Are you okay?
00:14:16Your knuckles are white.
00:14:17I'm fine.
00:14:20I'm claustrophobic.
00:14:22Don't be ridiculous.
00:14:24You are.
00:14:24You're sweating.
00:14:27Talk to me.
00:14:28Just talk about anything.
00:14:44I've got you.
00:14:45I'm fine.
00:14:46Get off of me.
00:14:49You can't even stand.
00:14:51Lean on me.
00:14:51We have to take the stairs.
00:14:54Hey, Reg.
00:14:55What happened?
00:14:57Old injury.
00:14:58A lifetime ago.
00:14:59Ezra, what happened?
00:15:02Get Ms. Andrews a new phone.
00:15:04The latest model.
00:15:05Yes, sir.
00:15:05Restore her cloud data immediately.
00:15:08I don't need...
00:15:09It's a worker's compass, you.
00:15:12Do it.
00:15:31You're still here?
00:15:34Finley is still working, and he said the storm was bad.
00:15:38No Ubers.
00:15:40I'll drive you.
00:15:43You shouldn't be driving.
00:15:45Your leg.
00:15:48I have a driver, Hallie.
00:16:06You were sleeping.
00:16:08We've been parked for 20 minutes.
00:16:10Where are we?
00:16:11Why did we stop?
00:16:14For the sugar cash.
00:16:17You didn't have to do this.
00:16:19I told you, Hallie.
00:16:21I take care of my investments.
00:16:32The contract.
00:16:34Send me the final version.
00:16:36Are you sure?
00:16:38I want access to Grimes.
00:16:41That's my condition.
00:16:48You'll have it.
00:16:49And I want to design.
00:16:52For real.
00:16:53Not just fetch coffee.
00:16:56You were never meant to fetch coffee, Hallie.
00:16:59I've seen your sketches.
00:17:04I'll see you tomorrow, fiancé.
00:17:09I'll see you tomorrow, fiancé.
00:17:14I'll see you tomorrow, fiancé.
00:17:22I'll see you tomorrow, fiancé.
00:17:22It came from the top floor.
00:17:23What is it?
00:17:26It's the first move in my war.
00:17:28I'll see you tomorrow.
00:17:33Adequate.
00:17:35High praise from you.
00:17:36When you see him, don't look at him like a daughter.
00:17:39Look at him like an equal.
00:17:43I don't know if I can.
00:17:46You can.
00:17:48You have me.
00:17:55Showtime, Mrs. Gardner.
00:17:57Ezra, good to see you.
00:17:59And who is this lovely accessory?
00:18:01Senator, I'd like you to meet my fiancé.
00:18:04Fiancé, you?
00:18:06Yes.
00:18:07This is Hallie.
00:18:08Hallie Andrews.
00:18:10A pleasure to meet you, Senator.
00:18:14The pleasure is mine.
00:18:17I didn't even recognize you.
00:18:19He's intrigued.
00:18:21He has the first step.
00:18:23Now, we burn his world down.
00:18:26The first, we dance.
00:18:34Who are you, Ezra Gardner?
00:18:36The man who saw your value when everyone else was blind.
00:18:42Kiss me.
00:18:43With pleasure.
00:18:46With pleasure.
00:19:09Andrews, explain this.
00:19:10These are Wendy's sketches.
00:19:12Why are you showing them to me?
00:19:13Don't play dumb.
00:19:15I've been looking for those since yesterday.
00:19:18Security found them in your personal drawer.
00:19:21She was playing a trick.
00:19:23And why would I steal this?
00:19:25It's derivative.
00:19:26It's mediocre.
00:19:27Excuse me?
00:19:28You little thief.
00:19:29You're just a glorified coffee girl.
00:19:31You only got here by men.
00:19:32Enough, Hallie.
00:19:33The sketches were in your desk.
00:19:34That's possession of proprietary IP.
00:19:36We have zero tolerance.
00:19:37Check the cameras.
00:19:39There's a camera right above my desk.
00:19:41Oh, didn't you hear?
00:19:42The cameras on this floor were down yesterday.
00:19:46How convenient.
00:19:47Miss Andrews, hand over your badge.
00:19:50We need to escort you for an investigative interview.
00:19:52I didn't do it.
00:19:56Hallie.
00:19:57This way.
00:19:58Don't touch me.
00:20:02That's what happens when you fly too close to the sun.
00:20:05Sign this.
00:20:06It's standard protocol.
00:20:11Don't sign anything.
00:20:12Mr. Butler.
00:20:13This is an HR matter.
00:20:16Mr. Gardner is on his way down.
00:20:18And he is not pleased.
00:20:31Mr. Gardner, we found stolen sketches in Mrs. Andrews' desk.
00:20:37Proprietary designs belong to Ms. Quinn.
00:20:40Evidence.
00:20:42These were the files, sir.
00:20:51You're telling me my special assistant with access to this infomerate's confidential financials
00:20:56risked her career to steal this?
00:20:58This pedestrian, uninspired garbage?
00:21:02Sir, it's the fall lead piece.
00:21:04It's a poor knockoff of a Balenciade code from five years ago.
00:21:07Where is the security footage?
00:21:09The cameras were down, sir.
00:21:11Maintenance.
00:21:11Maintenance.
00:21:13I pay $40 million a year for a system that rivals the Pentagon, and it just happened to
00:21:18go down?
00:21:18Finley.
00:21:19Get IT security.
00:21:20I want a forensic audit of the server logs.
00:21:22Pull the physical backup tape from the basement.
00:21:24If I find out this was a setup, termination will be the least of your worries.
00:21:28I will sue you for corporate sabotage until your great-crazed grandchildren are paying the
00:21:32legal fees.
00:21:36Tear that up.
00:21:41Ms. Andrews returns to her desk.
00:21:43If anyone has a problem with that, they can see me.
00:21:46Personally.
00:21:48Allie.
00:21:50Yes?
00:21:51My office.
00:21:52Tomorrow morning, 8 a.m.
00:22:06Bring an appetite.
00:22:07I'm not eating alone.
00:22:22Sit.
00:22:24Eat.
00:22:27You look like you haven't eaten since the gala.
00:22:34It's for energy.
00:22:35For catching rats.
00:22:38He thinks, your assistant, he definitely thinks we're sleeping together.
00:22:43He knows we are engaged.
00:22:45It's functionally the same thing in his mind.
00:22:48It's not.
00:22:49This is a business arrangement.
00:22:55Who paid for this breakfast?
00:22:57The company account.
00:22:59Why?
00:23:00I want to pay for my share.
00:23:01I am not a kept woman.
00:23:05I have a salary.
00:23:08Hallie, the orange juice costs more than your hourly rate.
00:23:12I don't care.
00:23:13How much?
00:23:15If it makes your fragile ego feel better, $200.
00:23:20For eggs?
00:23:22Are the kick-ins made of gold?
00:23:24It's from Le Couchet.
00:23:26Just eat the eggs, Hallie.
00:23:37That covers the eggs and the coffee.
00:23:39I'm not paying for the truffle fries because I didn't ask for them.
00:23:42You are ridiculous.
00:23:44I am independent.
00:23:48I have a rat to catch.
00:23:57Did you see?
00:23:58She just threw money at him.
00:24:00A 20?
00:24:01Is she tipping him?
00:24:02Or paying for...
00:24:04services?
00:24:08Okay.
00:24:09Spill.
00:24:10Did you pay Ezza $20 to kiss you?
00:24:12Or did he pay you to leave?
00:24:15It was for breakfast!
00:24:17We went Dutch!
00:24:19You went Dutch with a billionaire?
00:24:23Hallie, you are doing this so wrong.
00:24:39I told you the cameras were wiped.
00:24:42But the big boss is pulling the physical tapes.
00:24:44If they find out, I cut the feed.
00:24:46They won't.
00:24:47Just tell them it was a glitch.
00:24:49Here.
00:24:57Who's there?
00:25:00Who's there?
00:25:03Who's there?
00:25:04Who's there?
00:25:06Who's there?
00:25:12Who's there?
00:25:17No.
00:25:18Who's there?
00:25:18Hide me.
00:25:19Please.
00:25:27Is there a problem?
00:25:29No.
00:25:30No, sir.
00:25:31We just heard a noise.
00:25:34Leave.
00:25:36Gentlemen, go ahead. I'll meet you at the restaurant.
00:25:40Something has come up.
00:25:47You can come out now, 007.
00:25:51I... I ripped your shirt.
00:25:55And the button, it rolled away.
00:25:58That was a mother-of-pearl button, hand-stitched in the lamp.
00:26:03I can sew it back on?
00:26:04With what? A stapler?
00:26:10Get in. Before you assault anyone else.
00:26:19I was tracking Wendy. She was paying off Mike, the guard.
00:26:23I know.
00:26:25You know? Then why didn't you do anything?
00:26:28If I fire her, they'll say I'm protecting my mistress.
00:26:31You need to find the smoking gun. You have to clear your own name.
00:26:34But I failed. They saw me.
00:26:38They saw a hoodlum in a hoodie. They didn't see Hala Andrews.
00:26:44You're giving me the keys to the castle?
00:26:46I'm giving you a chance to use those talents you hide.
00:26:48You think like an architect.
00:26:51I... I just have opinions.
00:26:53Use them. Find the evidence.
00:26:56Now go. Mike is on his lunch break.
00:27:06Oh my god. I am so, so sorry.
00:27:09Hallie.
00:27:11Are you secretly working for my tailor?
00:27:13Is this a commission scheme?
00:27:15I'll get a napkin.
00:27:16I... I... I can fix it.
00:27:18Stop. You're making it worse.
00:27:22Go.
00:27:22Get the footage.
00:27:23Before I bill you for a new wardrobe.
00:27:25Okay. Okay.
00:27:40It's Wendy. She's at my desk.
00:27:42Shoving the sketches in my drawer.
00:27:44Gotcha.
00:27:45Gotcha.
00:27:58He's humming.
00:27:59He sat down.
00:28:00Don't turn around.
00:28:01Please don't turn around.
00:28:04He's putting on headphones.
00:28:06A video game.
00:28:08This is my chance.
00:28:09I have you now, Wendy.
00:28:11Dead to rights.
00:28:19I want her here.
00:28:21I want her to apologize.
00:28:22To me.
00:28:24In front of you.
00:28:27Finley.
00:28:28Send Wendy Quinn up.
00:28:30Tell her it's regarding the Fashion Week roster.
00:28:39Ezra, darling.
00:28:40I'm so glad you called.
00:28:42I have some ideas for the show.
00:28:44Darling.
00:28:46Darling?
00:28:46Ms. Andrum seems to find that term distasteful.
00:28:50It's gross.
00:28:51It's unprofessional.
00:28:52And it's delusional.
00:28:54Who do you think you are?
00:28:56You're just an assistant.
00:29:03Explain.
00:29:05It's... it's not what it looks like.
00:29:06I was just returning them.
00:29:09Returning them to the bottom of her personal drawer?
00:29:11Under her gym bag?
00:29:13I was under so much pressure.
00:29:14She's young.
00:29:15She's pretty.
00:29:16Everyone likes her.
00:29:17I was scared.
00:29:18So you framed her.
00:29:20You committed corporate espionage.
00:29:23And fraud.
00:29:24I'm sorry.
00:29:26Ezra, please.
00:29:27Don't apologize to me.
00:29:29Apologize to her.
00:29:31I'm sorry.
00:29:33I can't hear you.
00:29:35I'm sorry.
00:29:36I was jealous.
00:29:38Are you happy?
00:29:40Yes.
00:29:42I am.
00:29:43Finley.
00:29:44Escort Ms. Quinn out.
00:29:46Have legal draft the termination papers.
00:29:48And notify the industry blacklist.
00:29:53Now, let's talk about that face you made.
00:29:55What face?
00:29:56The one when she called me darling.
00:29:59You look like you wanted to vomit when Wendy called me darling.
00:30:02Or kill her.
00:30:04It was tacky.
00:30:05She sounded like she owned you.
00:30:07And that bothers you?
00:30:08Why?
00:30:08Because you're my boss.
00:30:11I'm your fiancée.
00:30:14Fake fiancée.
00:30:15Is it?
00:30:16You defended your territory, Hallie.
00:30:19That was jealousy.
00:30:21I am not jealous.
00:30:24Wendy is gone.
00:30:26Now for the other obstacle.
00:30:28Irvin.
00:30:30I have a plan.
00:30:32I'll handle him.
00:30:34You have three days.
00:30:35I don't like my future wife having a boyfriend.
00:30:38I'm not sharing.
00:30:40I haven't let him touch me in weeks.
00:30:43Good.
00:30:44Keep it that way.
00:30:51Ezra?
00:30:53If I called you darling, would it be gross?
00:30:56If you called me darling, I would probably buy you an island.
00:31:14Finley is outside the store.
00:31:15He'll drive you to dinner.
00:31:19He's always watching.
00:31:21And tonight Irving is going to learn what happens when you lie to the wrong woman.
00:31:29Mr. Gardner is concerned, Hallie.
00:31:32Irving Vincent is a snake.
00:31:34Snakes get stepped on when they're cornered, Finley.
00:31:37I'm wearing boots.
00:31:45Hallie?
00:31:46Is that you?
00:31:48Hi, babe.
00:31:49You look incredible.
00:31:50I've never seen you dress like this.
00:31:52I felt like celebrating.
00:31:54Bring us your most expensive champagne.
00:31:56Celebrating what?
00:31:57Your big bonus, of course.
00:31:59You are paying, right?
00:32:01Of course.
00:32:01I'll be right back.
00:32:03Restroom.
00:32:08Leah?
00:32:09Who is Leah?
00:32:12An image.
00:32:14Look at our little bean.
00:32:17No.
00:32:19It's an ultrasound.
00:32:22Six weeks.
00:32:24Strong heartbeat.
00:32:25Call me.
00:32:26I'm back.
00:32:27What's wrong?
00:32:28You look pale.
00:32:29Just overwhelmed with happiness for us.
00:32:35A toast.
00:32:37To us.
00:32:37To the future.
00:32:39To us.
00:32:40Are you okay?
00:32:42You're quiet.
00:32:44Just thinking.
00:32:46About loyalty.
00:32:48Loyalty's important.
00:32:49That's why we work, right?
00:32:51We're a team.
00:32:52A team.
00:32:54A team.
00:33:06Did you do it?
00:33:10She's pregnant.
00:33:13Leah?
00:33:14I saw the text on his phone.
00:33:18The ultrasound.
00:33:20I will destroy him.
00:33:21I will burn his career to the ground tonight.
00:33:24No.
00:33:27Not yet.
00:33:30I need to do it.
00:33:31You're hurting.
00:33:32Let me handle it.
00:33:35I need to be the one to end it.
00:33:38Okay.
00:33:39Go back there.
00:33:41I'll finish it.
00:33:45I'll be right here.
00:34:03Ready for dessert?
00:34:05No.
00:34:06Check, please.
00:34:07What is wrong with you tonight?
00:34:09Let's go outside.
00:34:11It's over, Irving.
00:34:14What?
00:34:15Don't be dramatic.
00:34:17It's about Leah.
00:34:20It's about the baby.
00:34:23You.
00:34:24How do you know?
00:34:26I saw the message.
00:34:29Congratulations.
00:34:30You're going to be a father.
00:34:33And you're single.
00:34:36You can't just walk away.
00:34:38You're my ticket of fashion week.
00:34:40You owe me.
00:34:41I owe you nothing.
00:34:46Get up!
00:34:47You're making a scene!
00:34:53Touch her again, and you will lose the hand.
00:34:57Mr. Gardner!
00:34:59I...
00:35:00She fell!
00:35:01You are suspended.
00:35:03Security will escort you from the premises.
00:35:06Security escort you from the premises.
00:35:08If you attempt to enter again, I will have you arrested.
00:35:21I'm ruining your car.
00:35:23I'm ruining your suit.
00:35:30You're not ruining anything.
00:35:35You're finally coming home.
00:35:43Turn up the heat.
00:35:45Already done, sir.
00:35:46My dress is ruined.
00:35:48I look like a disaster.
00:35:50You look free.
00:35:51He's gone, Hallie.
00:35:54He can never hurt you again.
00:35:57He...
00:35:58He...
00:35:58He pushed me.
00:35:59He actually put his hands on me.
00:36:02And he will pay for it.
00:36:04Finley, call security.
00:36:06Revoke Irving's access tonight.
00:36:10Pack his office into boxes and leave them on the curb.
00:36:15Why are we here?
00:36:17This isn't my apartment.
00:36:18You're not going back there tonight.
00:36:19It's not safe.
00:36:20But all my stuff...
00:36:22We'll buy new stuff.
00:36:31I can walk.
00:36:32Indulge me.
00:36:33Shower.
00:36:34Get warm.
00:36:35I'll find you something dry.
00:36:37Okay.
00:36:38Okay.
00:36:39Okay.
00:36:40Okay.
00:36:46Bourbon.
00:36:47It's medicinal.
00:36:48What happens now?
00:36:50Now?
00:36:50We go to S Country.
00:36:52We win Fashion Week.
00:36:53We acquire the brand.
00:36:55And the marriage?
00:36:56The marriage stands.
00:36:57But the terms have changed.
00:36:59No more hiding.
00:37:00You are mine, Hallie.
00:37:02In public and in private.
00:37:05Ezra.
00:37:07For catching me.
00:37:09I will always catch you.
00:37:24You're out.
00:37:25Better?
00:37:26Yes.
00:37:28You're drinking?
00:37:28Finley isn't here yet.
00:37:30The rain.
00:37:31Traffic.
00:37:31You shouldn't drink on an empty stomach.
00:37:34You haven't eaten.
00:37:36I'm fine.
00:37:38I'm fine.
00:37:46You're not fine.
00:37:47It's your leg, isn't it?
00:37:48The alcohol is making it worse.
00:37:50The pain.
00:37:51It dulls the edges.
00:37:52You're heavy.
00:37:54Come on.
00:37:54You need to sit down.
00:37:56Or sleep.
00:37:57Bedroom.
00:37:58Finley.
00:37:59Tell him to go home.
00:38:14Allie.
00:38:16Ezra.
00:38:17You're in pain.
00:38:17You need to get off.
00:38:19If I move, I might do something I can't take back.
00:38:23Like what?
00:38:24Like never letting you leave this room.
00:38:29Ezra.
00:38:43Good morning.
00:38:50Did you sleep?
00:38:54Ezra.
00:38:55Ezra.
00:38:55Ezra.

00:39:09I'm sorry.
00:39:12Allie?
00:39:13I didn't.
00:39:15You were too close.
00:39:16He...
00:39:16Irving grabbed me like that.
00:39:19I panicked.
00:39:21You're afraid of me.
00:39:23No.
00:39:24I'm not.
00:39:25I'm just not used to being touched.
00:39:28I am not him.
00:39:30I would never hurt you.
00:39:31I know.
00:39:33But my body doesn't know that yet.
