Short filmTranscript
00:02My husband and my best friend, the two people I loved most in this world.
00:13I was falling. I felt myself die. But I'm here.
00:23Emily Carter! Everyone in this school knows I like you. Today in front of everyone I'm saying it.
00:28One day I'm gonna marry you. Be my girl!
00:33Oh my god! The most handsome guy in school is proposing!
00:37I would have said yes in a heartbeat!
00:41That ring, it's the same one. The hands that pushed me, they were his.
00:50Was that a warning? A glimpse of what's coming?
00:54If everything I saw is my future, then I am not walking into it. Not this man. Not this life.
01:02What's wrong, babe? Too shocked to speak?
01:04No.
01:06What did you say?
01:07I said no. I'd rather die than marry you.
01:14She rejected? Is she crazy? She just dumped Brandon in public?
01:19Emily, are you kidding me?
01:20I'm not kidding. Stay away from me.
01:32Opportunity is here.
01:38What was that scene all about? Was it a warning from fate? It felt so real. It scared me.
01:44If I marry Brandon, I'll be deceived by him for ten years. And in the end, he and Chloe will
01:50push me off a building together.
01:53Too bad. Fate showed me everything. I've seen all your cards. Don't think you'll get away with this.
02:00Dad's company. Mom's meth. Chloe's schemes. I remember all of it. In those years, I kept everything going by myself.
02:07Everything I learned.
02:08This time, I'm using it all against them.
02:11Em, are you in there? Are you crazy? Rejecting Brandon in public? Do you know how many girls want to
02:16marry him?
02:17So? Chloe, are you so desperate to get me back with him for my sake or because you want him
02:21for yourself?
02:21What are you talking about? I'm your best friend. Then you better remember what best friend means. Pretending to be
02:27so pure.
02:28Brandon will be mine sooner or later.
02:39Don't trust Brandon! He's lying to you!
02:49Why is the queen sitting next to that weirdo? Ethan, that bookworm nobody pays attention to?
03:01Y-you sat down in the wrong spot?
03:03No, I wanted to sit here.
03:04Everyone's staring. You're Emily Carter. Sitting with me isn't good for your reputation.
03:08I decide what's good for my reputation.
03:11What's this?
03:12Nothing. Just an algorithm. No one understands it.
03:14Recursive optimization? You're working on a data compression model?
03:17Y-you understand this? The whole faculty says I'm wasting my time.
03:20They're wrong. This is gonna be worth a lot of money someday.
03:22Ethan, remember what you're writing today. It's gonna change your life.
03:30Brandon, the video of Emily rejecting you in public is everywhere.
03:33The whole school is laughing at you.
03:35Laughing? You don't get it. She's playing hard to get.
03:37Playing hard to get? She slapped you in the face.
03:40What girl doesn't want me? She just wants me to chase her a little longer, keep her guessing.
03:44Mark my words, within a week, she'll come crawling back to me.
03:47But, she said she'd rather die than marry you.
03:50That doesn't sound like playing hard to get.
03:52Girls always say the opposite of what they mean.
03:54Trust me. I know how they think.
03:56Why is she suddenly hanging out with Ethan?
03:59That loser. She's just using him to make me jealous.
04:04Babe, I don't blame you for what happened yesterday. I know you're under a lot of pressure. Let's start over,
04:09okay?
04:09Start over what?
04:10Us. I forgive you. Everyone makes mistakes.
04:13Brandon, do you even hear yourself?
04:14Come on, babe. I know deep down you still want me.
04:19Brandon?
04:19Yeah.
04:24Oops. My hand slipped.
04:26Emily! Are you crazy? This jacket is expensive!
04:30More expensive than your face?
04:32You'll regret humiliating me like this.
04:34The only thing I regret is wasting one minute talking to you.
04:37I'll pay for this.
04:44Did you hear? Emily didn't reject Brandon because she found herself a rich older guy outside school.
04:49No wonder she doesn't want a student anymore.
04:58You started this rumor, didn't you?
05:00What rumor? I haven't said anything.
05:03Chloe, you better not push me.
05:05Push you how?
05:07People are spreading this on their own. What does it have to do with me?
05:11Emily, your reputation is ruined now. No one's gonna help you.
05:15Reputation? Speaking of reputation.
05:17Everyone thinks Chloe is such a sweet, kind senior, right?
05:20But did you know, last semester, Lily wasn't expelled for cheating at all.
05:27Don't slander me.
05:29Someone tampered with Lily's exam paper.
05:31Then they planted a USB drive full of cheating answers in her bag.
05:34That USB drive, it's still in locker number three in the gym.
05:37The code is Chloe's birthday.
05:38Really?
05:39Let's go check it out!
05:43You...
05:44How do you know that?
05:47A USB drive? There's really a USB drive?
05:50So I can clear my name now, right?
05:52It's real!
05:53It's real!
05:53Right there in the locker with Chloe's birthday code!
05:56Chloe!
05:57I thought you were my best friend!
05:59Why would you do this to me?
06:02It's not me.
06:04This is a setup.
06:10The access logs for the lockers, the times the card was swiped, all matched Chloe's card to complete edits.
06:15You already looked into this?
06:17I saw her targeting you, so I kept an eye out.
06:25This is just the beginning.
06:28This is just the beginning.
06:35The tech innovation competition.
06:37For the team project, I want to team up with you.
06:39Why me?
06:40Everyone thinks I'm some anti-social freak?
06:43Because you can win.
06:45Win?
06:46The teachers say I'm wasting my time on this stuff.
06:48No one believes in me.
06:50They don't understand it.
06:51That doesn't mean it's useless.
06:54Ethan, the way you see the world, it's not like anyone else's.
06:57You don't think it's strange?
07:00It's not strange.
07:01It's genius.
07:02No one's ever said that to me before.
07:04People only ever called me a weirdo, a loner.
07:06My foster family couldn't wait to get rid of me.
07:08Then they're all blind.
07:10One day, the same people who laugh at you now will line up just to work with you.
07:17You really believe that?
07:18You barely know me.
07:20I know enough.
07:22I know you stay in this lab till midnight when everyone else has gone home.
07:27I know you solve problems the teachers can't even read.
07:31That's not nothing, Ethan.
07:33That's everything.
07:34Why do you care so much?
07:36You're Emily Carter.
07:37You could team up with... with anyone.
07:40Because I don't want anyone.
07:42I want the one who's going to change everything.
07:45Team up with me.
07:47Trust me.
07:48We can take first place.
07:50But if we lose, everyone will say it's because of me.
07:52They'll drag you down too.
07:53We won't lose.
07:54And even if the whole world doubts you, I won't.
07:58Not ever.
08:02Okay.
08:03I'm in.
08:04Partners.
08:14That nerd.
08:16Wow.
08:17Emily turned you down just to hook up with Ethan?
08:19That's gotta sting.
08:21She's just confused.
08:23She'll come to her senses.
08:24Will she?
08:25Look at them.
08:26She's smiling at him like that.
08:28When was the last time she ever smiled at you?
08:32Brennan, some women just don't know what's good for them.
08:35You've got someone right here who actually understands you.
08:39Let go.
08:52Emily, you're my one and only, my heart beats only for you.
09:01Barronin, stop.
09:04What do you think?
09:05Wrote it myself, just for you.
09:07Touched?
09:10Disgusting.
09:10Emily, what do I have to do to get you back?
09:13Roses, songs, gifts, just name it.
09:16You really want to know?
09:17Yes, tell me.
09:20Disappear from my life.
09:21That's the only thing I want from you.
09:25You'll regret this.
09:26No other guy will ever treat you the way I do.
09:28I'm the most popular guy in this school.
09:31Popular?
09:32That just means more people get to watch you make a fool of yourself.
09:35I'm not coming back.
09:36Get that through your head.
09:47Brandon getting shot down again.
09:49This is the third time this week.
09:58Rejected again?
10:00She wasn't like this before.
10:01She used to love me.
10:02She used to look at me like I was her whole world.
10:03People change.
10:04But some people have been right beside you all along,
10:06and you just never noticed.
10:08Brandon, at least I understand you.
10:10I've always understood you.
10:11Why is she so different now?
10:12It's like she's a completely different person.
10:14Forget her.
10:14Some people just aren't worth chasing.
10:16I'm right here.
10:21Even faster than last time.
10:23Good.
10:23Get together on your own saves me the trouble.
10:26Last life, you two destroyed me together.
10:28This time, you'll destroy each other.
10:39Chloe, there's a case of champagne in the storage room.
10:41Brandon said to have you bring it.
10:43He's waiting inside.
10:45He's looking for me?
10:47Yeah.
10:48He seemed like he really wanted to see you.
10:50Go on.
10:53I knew it.
10:53He's finally giving up on you.
10:55Looks like it.
10:57Don't keep him waiting.
10:59I'm waiting.
11:01Walk right into it, just like you always do.
11:07You wanted to see me?
11:10I didn't call you.
11:12Doesn't matter who called who.
11:14Perfect timing.
11:16No one else around.
11:17I'll keep you company.
11:21Chloe.
11:23You're always here when she's not.
11:26Because I'm the one who actually cares.
11:30Perfect.
11:35You've been setting something up all night.
11:37You noticed?
11:38Hard not to.
11:39You moved Chloe toward the storage room.
11:41You timed it exactly when Brandon was alone and drunk.
11:44You're sharper than people give you credit for.
11:46Emily, you've changed a lot lately.
11:48Calm.
11:49Decisive.
11:50Like you already know how everything's going to play out.
11:52Something like that.
11:53I just woke up early.
11:55Woke up from what?
11:58From a very long, very bad dream.
12:01I don't know what you're going through.
12:03But whatever you're fighting, I want you to know you're not alone.
12:09I'm with you.
12:14You don't even know what you're getting into.
12:17I don't need to.
12:18I just need it to be you.
12:26Emily, someone has reported you for cheating on the midterm exam.
12:30This cheat sheet was found under your seat.
12:33The handwriting matches yours.
12:36Emily, I didn't want to believe it either, but the evidence is all here.
12:40If you admit it, the punishment might be lighter.
12:44Chloe, you're a good actress.
12:46I'm just trying to help you.
12:50Principal, there's definitely something wrong with this cheat sheet.
12:53But the problem isn't me.
12:55First, the handwriting mimics mine, but the way the A is written is wrong.
12:59I always write in cursive.
13:01Second, the security footage shows when I handed in my paper, there was nothing under my desk.
13:05This cheat sheet was planted after I'd already left.
13:09Then who put it there?
13:17I can answer that.
13:18This is a backup of the classroom security footage.
13:20After the exam ended, one person was the last to leave and lingered at Emily's seat for 20 seconds.
13:25Chloe, it was you?
13:30No!
13:31Emily set me up!
13:32Chloe, why can't you ever win against me?
13:35How do you always know?
13:37How do you see it every single time?
13:40Because I've already seen you lose everything.
13:44Chloe, you're receiving a formal demerigage.
13:47Your parents will be notified immediately.
13:50Emily, the school clears your name.
13:59I'll walk you home.
14:00You'll get wet.
14:02It's fine, I'm used to it.
14:04Used to it?
14:05No one ever came to pick me up with an umbrella.
14:07I've walked home in the rain plenty of times.
14:11Then today, you don't walk alone.
14:19Ethan, thank you for helping me today.
14:22At the hearing, if you hadn't showed up with that evidence...
14:26You don't have to thank me.
14:27I just didn't want to see you get wrongfully accused.
14:29Why?
14:30You barely know me.
14:31You could have stayed out of it.
14:33Because you were the first person who ever looked at me like I mattered.
14:35The least I can do is have your back.
14:47The truth is, I treated you badly.
14:52But we've barely ever spoken.
14:54Let's just say, I owe you an apology.
14:56A big one.
14:58Emily, you're talking, there's a whole history between us that I don't remember.
15:02Maybe there is.
15:04Maybe I just want to do things differently this time.
15:08Different how?
15:10This time.
15:11I see you.
15:19Emily, you're benching me for this book net.
15:24She told you to stay away from her.
15:27Who do you think you are?
15:29An orphan with no parents?
15:32You think you deserve to stand next to her?
15:34I may have no parents, but at least I've never forced a girl to be with me.
15:40You...
15:42Brandon, he's a hundred times better than you.
15:46He's drenched right now just to keep me dry.
15:50You...
15:51You drove here drunk just to humiliate me.
15:54You'll regret this!
15:56Both of you!
15:57My only regret is ever knowing you.
16:04Let's go.
16:05He's not worth standing in the rain for.
16:12Here it comes.
16:13Last life, this was when Dad signed that contract.
16:16Six months later, the company was gutted.
16:18Not this time.
16:22Old friend, sign it.
16:24This is your only chance to save your company.
16:33Dad, don't sign it.
16:34Emily?
16:34Why are you back?
16:35This is grown-up business.
16:36Clause 7.
16:37If quarterly revenue fails to reach 85% of the target,
16:41Party B has the right to activate the bet agreement.
16:45Dad, they can raise that target anytime they want.
16:50Clos 12.
16:51Core technology intellectual property will be shared during the cooperation period.
16:56Shared means free.
16:58Three months from now, your patents will belong to Hayes.
17:04The appendix.
17:06If targets are missed for two consecutive quarters,
17:09controlling interest transfers automatically.
17:12Dad, this isn't an investment, it's a trap.
17:14Sign this, and within six months, you'll lose the entire company.
17:22Miss Carter, you're a high school student.
17:24How do you understand corporate trougs like this?
17:26Mr. Hayes, you probably don't know.
17:28I won first place in a school business competition.
17:32Looks like we won't be signing today.
17:34Hey, Carter, think it over and get back to me.
17:37Smart girl.
17:38But being too smart isn't always a good thing.
17:42Thanks for the warning.
17:48Emily.
17:50I almost signed this.
17:51How did you...
17:52Dad, from now on, let me review any partnership with Hayes before you sign.
18:01First step blocked.
18:03But Hayes won't give up.
18:05He'll find another way to come after us.
18:15Emily, we have a huge problem.
18:17Someone hacked our financial system.
18:19All our records have been tampered with.
18:23It looks like I've been cooking the books.
18:29Hayes made his move.
18:31What?
18:32He couldn't get the contract signed, so now he's using dirty tactics.
18:36Manufacturing evidence to accuse you of fraud and force you to give up the company.
18:39But the data's been altered.
18:41How can I prove my innocence?
18:44Ethan, I need you.
18:46Come to Carter Industries.
18:48Now.
18:51The hack wasn't clean.
18:53The people they hired aren't that skilled.
18:55Can you trace it back to the source?
18:57Already did.
19:01The IP points to an internal server at Hayes Group.
19:04And that's not all.
19:05I found their hidden accounts, illegal fund transfers, tax evasion.
19:09The numbers are huge.
19:12They messed with the wrong people.
19:14This is who you really are.
19:16What?
19:18Nothing.
19:19Can you restore the original data?
19:22Already restoring it?
19:24I've backed up all the tampering records and the hack traces.
19:26Solid evidence of Hayes attacking us.
19:30Who is this kid?
19:32He's a genius.
19:34A genius everyone overlooked.
19:50What's this?
19:52Drinking alone?
19:55None of your business.
19:57Brandon, we're in the same boat now.
20:01Emily embarrassed you.
20:03She ruined my reputation.
20:06We have the same enemy.
20:13What do you say?
20:19Let's team up.
20:20You help me take down Ethan.
20:22Without that nerd backing her up, Emily is nothing.
20:24And I'll help you drive Emily back to you.
20:28You think you can beat her?
20:29Remember how badly she destroyed you last time?
20:31I underestimated her last time, not this time.
20:33I'm going to destroy that loser.
20:35Get him expelled.
20:36Without Ethan, Emily is a cat without claws.
20:40Go on.
20:43We both want the same thing.
20:44To make Emily Carter regret everything.
20:51Finally together.
20:53Just like last life.
20:55Just three years earlier.
20:57Got it.
20:58You two killed me in my last life.
21:03This time, let's see what you've got.
21:14Ethan cheated?
21:16No way.
21:17Maybe he did.
21:17How could a nobody like she come up with something that impressive?
21:24Chloe made her move.
21:26Someone planted a piece of code in my project.
21:28It matches a public paper from MIT.
21:29That isn't mine.
21:30That code is...
21:32I know.
21:33We'll prove it at the hearing.
21:34Ethan, a section of your submitted code is identical to a published MIT paper.
21:38How do you explain that?
21:40That code wasn't written by me.
21:42It was planted.
21:46Do you have evidence?
21:49I do.
21:52First, this is the version history of Ethan's project.
21:55Every change has a timestamp.
21:57The plagiarized code was inserted from an external IP two hours before the submission deadline,
22:02at a time when Ethan was in class with me.
22:04A dozen students can testify.
22:07Second, the IP address used to insert the code traces back to a public computer in the school library.
22:14And the logon records from that time period show...
22:21This...
22:21Someone deliberately tampered with a contestant's project files to fabricate plagiaring.
22:25This isn't academic discon, it's malicious framing.
22:27I extracted the complete operation logs from the submission system.
22:30Every single tampering action is documented.
22:33Ethan Cole is cleared of all suspicion.
22:35The school will take serious action against malicious tampering with academic systems.
22:44Emily, every time I'm in trouble...
22:47You show up.
22:48Because you're worth it.
23:03You wanted to see me?
23:07I need to tell you something.
23:09I've been holding it in for too long.
23:13Three years, Emily.
23:14From the first day of freshman year, when you walked into that classroom, I couldn't stop watching you.
23:19But you're Emily Carter, every guy in school wants you.
23:22And I was nothing.
23:23A nobody.
23:24How could I ever speak up?
23:26I never thought you'd even know my name.
23:28Let alone fight the whole school for me, and stand up for me at that hearing.
23:32I've watched you for three years, Emily.
23:34I never thought you'd even know my name.
23:37Let alone fight for me.
23:46Ethan.
23:48I'm sorry.
23:51What are you sorry for?
23:55Because it took me too long to really see you.
23:57I'm sorry.
23:58I'm sorry it took me so long to see you.
24:05Not this time.
24:07I won't miss you again.
24:20Ethan, do you know?
24:21You're going to be someone really important someday.
24:24How do you know?
24:26Woman's intuition.
24:28What about you? What will you become?
24:33Someone who's great. With you.
24:44No. You can't choose him. How could you choose him?
24:53Did you see? Emily and Ethan are together.
24:56They even kissed!
24:58That nerd?
24:59Emily's taste is getting harder to understand.
25:11When did this happen?
25:14Yesterday.
25:15Someone took it on the rooftop.
25:29You and that orphan.
25:32Is it true?
25:34Yes.
25:35What's so great about him?
25:37He has nothing.
25:38No money. No background. No one respects him.
25:43How am I not better than him?
25:45You want to know?
25:47Tell me.
25:50He has a real heart.
25:55He's loyal.
25:57He never lies.
25:59And you.
26:00Everything you pretend to be.
26:02It's all fake.
26:06I really care about you.
26:08Really care?
26:10Brandon, you never loved me.
26:12You loved owning me.
26:14To you, I was just a trophy.
26:16Like your fancy cars and watches.
26:21Too bad.
26:23I was never yours.
26:25Too bad.
26:26I was never yours.
26:33Emily, you'll regret this.
26:45Isn't she the one who got written up for framing someone?
26:48She still dares to show her face.
26:50Just pretending. Trying to look like a good person.
27:01You trying to push me down the stairs?
27:03No. I was trying to catch you.
27:05Catch me?
27:06You push me from behind? That's what you call catching?
27:09You're lying. No one saw it.
27:11No one saw it?
27:14I pulled the live feed from the stair hole security camera.
27:17Oh my god! She really tried to push Emily down the stairs?
27:20This is supposed to be a good senior?
27:22She's trying to hurt people!
27:23You've all been fooled by Emily!
27:25She's the fake one!
27:27She's been manipulating all of you!
27:29Chloe, you've worn that mask long enough.
27:31Time to take it off.
27:34Just like last time.
27:36Pushing me from behind again.
27:45Dear Emily, if you're reading this, it means I'm gone.
27:48There's something I have to tell you.
27:51Our family and the Hayes family used to be partners.
27:56But your father's patent, it was stolen by Mr. Hayes.
27:59He built his entire Hayes group on that technology.
28:03I have the evidence.
28:05I was about to expose him.
28:08But I was afraid.
28:10Afraid he'd come after us.
28:12Emily, remember this.
28:14Never trust anyone from the Hayes family.
28:19Stole the patent?
28:21Built his empire?
28:23So last life, the man I married, Brandon,
28:26his father was the one who killed my mom and destroyed our family?
28:29I slept next to my enemy's son for ten years?
28:32So the debt is even bigger than I thought.
28:34Mr. Hayes, this life, I'm taking it all back.
28:36With interest.
28:41Ethan, I need you to look into someone for me.
28:43Mr. Hayes, everything from 20 years ago.
28:46Brandon's dad?
28:47Why him?
28:48He stole my family's patent.
28:50And he might have killed my mother.
28:51Send me the address.
28:53I'll come over right now.
28:54We're seeing this through together.
29:08Emily, why are you at the office?
29:10Dad, you haven't signed this investment contract
29:12with Hayes Group yet, have you?
29:13I was just about to.
29:15The company's cash flow is almost gone.
29:16They're the only ones willing to invest.
29:18Look at Clause 7, Clause 12, and the ANDEX bet agreement.
29:21If the company fails to meet targets for a single quarter,
29:24controlling interest automatically transfers to Hayes.
29:26Dad, this is a trap.
29:27They're trying to swallow Carter for nothing.
29:29These...
29:30These claws are buried so deep,
29:31I didn't even notice them.
29:32How does a high school student understand this stuff?
29:35Dad, don't sign it.
29:36Give me three days.
29:37I'll find you a new partner.
29:38But the company can't wait that long.
29:40Trust me.
29:41Just this once.
29:56Carter, you found yourself a new backer.
29:58Thanks to my daughter.
30:02Mr. Hayes, it's been a pleasure working with you.
30:05I hope we'll have more opportunities in the future.
30:07You're just a kid.
30:09How did you see through every single trap in my contract?
30:13Maybe I'm smarter than you think.
30:18Interesting.
30:19This girl is not ordinary.
30:32Is the video ready?
30:34Don't worry.
30:35Once she gets on stage, I'll play it.
30:37After that, she's finished at this school.
30:41Goop.
30:42No.
30:48That業界 quiere.
30:55No.
31:02It's a court record.
31:03Are not profits
31:03should, and we're actually paying over your contract. One size of
31:05probability for you to see that. Holy crap.
31:09then let's see if she still dares to be with that orphan
31:14no this is impossible how did our video turn into this
31:20you wanted to destroy me first ask yourselves if you're clean so it was brandon and chloe
31:25trying to hurt emily this whole time that's disgusting this show is over this time i win
31:42it's me look into a girl for me emily carter i want to know who she really is an 18
31:46year old
31:46girl can't be this flawless she's hiding something
31:57mr hayes i've been looking into emily carter for a whole week like you asked and on the surface
32:02she's just an ordinary high school student clean family background no connections ordinary she
32:08dismantled a contract trap i spent three years setting up she destroyed my son and she embarrassed
32:11me in business to my face that's ordinary but her file is completely clean that's exactly what's
32:16suspicious how can an 18 year old girl be flawless i found it strange too actually i did notice one
32:25odd thing go on she seems to know exactly what's going to happen before it does
32:31before it happens three months ago she told her father a certain company was going to collapse
32:37last month that company went bankrupt didn't lose a penny
32:42what else and that chloe girl every move she made emily knew in advance and shut her down this
32:47isn't luck it's like she's already seen how it ends someone who can predict the future either has
32:53inside information or is hiding a massive secret what do you want me to do watch her everything she
33:01eats everyone she meets everything she says i want to know it all i want to find out what this
33:06girl
33:06really is human or ghost understood
33:15it feels like someone's watching me
33:24emily's been investigating you a private investigator working for mr hayes
33:30he works fast but the direction they're investigating is strange strange how
33:35they're not looking into your background they're specifically looking into why you can predict
33:41everything that's exactly the problem i'm too perfect how can being perfect be a problem
33:47ethan if someone is right about everything people don't think they're smart they think
33:50they're suspicious they start questioning everything so hayes is focusing on that weakness
33:55right now he probably suspects insider trading or even corporate espionage
34:04dad emily something terrible happened someone reported our company for illegally obtaining business
34:10secrets regulators are auditing us most of our accounts are frozen when did this happen
34:15this morning our partners heard the news they're all pulling out
34:24dad stay calm don't sign anything i'll be right there
34:30hayes made his move he's using my weakness as a knife stabbing it right into my father's company
34:35what do we do now he thinks my weakness is his weapon i'll show him that a weakness can also
34:42cut his throat
34:49dad are you okay i'm fine just an old condition acting up i know about the accounts don't worry
34:58about it let me handle it most of the accounts are frozen our partners are gone the company won't
35:03survive the month i said let me handle it let me ask you something honestly this whole mess is it
35:09because you crossed hayes dad is it i'm sorry i dragged you into this don't say that it's me who
35:21couldn't protect this family dad trust me i'm gonna make this right
35:32don't carry this alone ethan i have a secret i've been hiding it for a very very long time
35:37you don't have to tell me if you don't want to i'm afraid if i tell you you'll think i'm
35:40crazy
35:42i don't need to know your secret but all i need to know is you're not fighting this war alone
35:49hayes wants to destroy your family then we'll tear him down together
35:54why are you so good to me because you were the first person who ever treated me like a human
35:59being
36:09did you find anything i traced back that patent you mentioned in your mother's letter
36:13i found the original registration records from 20 years ago
36:17was the real inventor your father it was your father but not only your father there's another
36:23name on the original partnership list
36:30cole who's that that's my last name what did you say emily it's my last name cole look
36:42the cole family went bankrupt overnight 20 years ago the whole family died in an accident only
36:49one baby was sent to an orphanage that baby was me so you're not just some ordinary orphan
36:56you're the only surviving hair of the cole family
37:00when hayes stole that patent back then he didn't just destroy your family to cover his tracks he wiped
37:06out the entire cole family too ethan calm down tell me do you think fate brought us together for a
37:12reason the person who killed your mother also destroyed my entire family so this isn't just my
37:17battle this is blood debt both our families emily i'm with you we're going to take back every last
37:22bit of what they owe us
37:29from now on we fight this war together haze is coming at us from two sides digging into my secret
37:33on one hand strangling my father's company on the other if we stay on defense he'll wear us down
37:38then let's stop waiting go on the offensive how before he figures out your secret we take him down
37:44first his weak spot is stealing that patent and covering up two families deaths but that was 20
37:49years ago he's probably destroyed all the evidence by now leave the evidence to me i'm a cole i have
37:55both the right and the ability to dig up what he buried 20 years ago then i'll handle the money
38:00and
38:01connections first i stabilize my father's company then i'll start pushing back are you sure you can
38:06handle it haze isn't a small-time player i've already died once what do i have to be afraid of
38:13so it's settled shoulder to shoulder no one backs down whoever backs down is a coward
38:21last life i died alone under that building no one pulled me back this life fate gave me a second
38:29chance
38:29and sent ethan to me mr hayes you owe two families their lives time to pay up this time
38:39you're the one who won't be able to sleep
38:46brandon we've lost to emily every single time don't you have any ideas
38:50ideas my father's company got hit back by hers he's barely keeping himself afloat
38:54what about what we agreed on after we successed your family was supposed to help mine get those
38:59business resources in case you haven't noticed we're both sinking and you're still worried about
39:03your cut what do you mean by that it means this deal is dead stop bothering me so i helped
39:10you go
39:10after emily for nothing chloe who do you think you are if my father actually turns this around
39:17you'll be the first person he drops
39:24oh dumped are you following me didn't need to i knew all along people like brandon use you and toss
39:30you aside what do you know i know the hayes family never planned to give your your family any resources
39:37you were nothing but a pawn from the very beginning stop trying to drive a wedge
39:43driving a wedge i didn't put those words in brandon's mouth you'll be the first person he drops i heard
39:47than myself you have more dirt on mr hayes's illegal activities than anyone give it to me and i can
39:53guarantee your safety keep following brandon and when his ship sinks he'll drag you down with him
40:02why would you think i'd help you i don't think you'll help me i think you'll do whatever it takes
40:06to save yourself
40:11i'll give you the dirt
40:13just like last time in the end you always tear each other apart

46:12how'd it feel saying goodbye to the past
46:16like a 10 year weight was lifted off my shoulders

46:21he's in prison but the hayes group is still running
46:23the board is still holding things together for him
46:25as long as his empire stands he can always make a comeback and come after us again
46:29so this time it's not enough to just put him in prison
46:35what do you want to do
46:36i want everything he built to crumble in front of everyone
46:41completely publicly humiliatingly
46:43yes just like he destroyed our families back then
46:46then we need something that can strike a fatal blow
46:48chloe's black accounts
46:50plus what you found about the cole family massacre
46:54and my mother's letter

47:20the original registration shows your father
47:22and my father as the primary inventors
47:24hayes's name isn't even on it
47:25then how did he build his fortune
47:27forged documents
47:28he stole the patent and claimed it as his own
47:30the entire hayes group was built on stolen property
47:32add my mother's letter
47:33it proves he was silencing witnesses 20 years ago
47:37the chain of evidence is complete
47:39i could hack into their systems right now
47:41and crash their stock price overnight

47:45why not
47:47hacking is revenge in the shadows
47:50that's not what i want

52:39what do you mean the medical examiner reviewed the original records there are signs of tampering
52:43tampered by who we're still investigating but one thing is clear your mother filed an anonymous
52:48report against hayes for patent thief before she died and after she reported it three days later
52:53she died of a sudden illness same month as the cole family massacre so my mother was silenced by hayes
52:58mr hayes has confessed the murder charge stands your mother and my parents
