Transcript
00:00:00When the biological daughter of the Dawsons fled her engagement party, I, the adopted orphan, stepped in her place.
00:00:09I know this wedding means everything to the family, but I am truly in love with Mike. I can't marry
00:00:16Sinclair.
00:00:18Oh, God.
00:00:19That ungrateful brat. Breaching this marriage contract is a $10 million hit. It'll bleed us dry.
00:00:25If Lily has no interest in honoring our deal, there's nothing left to discuss.
00:00:29Rachel, please, I'm begging you. You're all we have now.
00:00:38Mr. Sinclair?
00:00:49I'll marry you.
00:00:58See that? Our new calculus professor, Ethan Sinclair.
00:01:03What? Ethan Sinclair, the walking thirst trap of our school?
00:01:08He's mine, losers. No man can resist a woman like me.
00:01:12Wait. It says Professor Sinclair is engaged?
00:01:18Hang on a sec. Rachel?
00:01:21This looks just like you.
00:01:24Too bad the camera didn't catch her face.
00:01:26Are you out of your mind?
00:01:29A bankrupt family's charity case?
00:01:32My Ethan could never.
00:01:45What is wrong with you?
00:01:57Rachel?
00:01:58Rachel, are you engaged?
00:02:00Aww.
00:02:01And who's the unlucky man?
00:02:04Yes.
00:02:24My fiancé.
00:02:27And my professor.
00:02:30Ethan Sinclair.
00:02:42This is where I first saw him.
00:02:45Professor Sinclair.
00:02:47My very first day on campus.
00:02:58Come in.
00:03:04How should I address him now?
00:03:07Professor?
00:03:08Or my husband?
00:03:10I think we should discuss our marriage.
00:03:12It's like he can read my mind.
00:03:15Rachel,
00:03:16your sister ran away from this.
00:03:18Why didn't you?
00:03:20My foster parents are in a tough spot.
00:03:23I just want to help them out however I can.
00:03:26But you're so young.
00:03:28I'm 19.
00:03:29I'm a full-grown woman.
00:03:30I'm ready to walk down the aisle.
00:03:34Look.
00:03:35Your life just started.
00:03:37You should be out there,
00:03:38not tied down to a marriage
00:03:39and everything that comes with it.
00:03:41Okay?
00:03:42That's a burden for someone my age,
00:03:43not yours.
00:03:47I think we should call off the engagement.
00:03:56Let's talk about this at family dinner tonight.
00:03:58This is real it for all.
00:04:11Thank you for being here.
00:04:25I'm so young.
00:04:25Bye for mine.
00:04:27Goodbye.
00:04:27Come on.
00:04:27Bye for now.
00:04:41Is there anything I can do to change his mind?
00:04:43What if I kiss him?
00:05:00Today was a long day. You should get some sleep.
00:05:13Take a nap. I'll wake you when we get there.
00:05:18At least your real daughter is a dancer.
00:05:21Instead of this charity case you're trying to pawn off on us,
00:05:24who is just skin and bones like a stray dog.
00:05:31Go ahead. Cancel the engagement.
00:05:34But at least treat my daughter with respect.
00:05:38Oh, did I strike a nerve?
00:05:43Ethan is a catch.
00:05:45He's already met his match, his childhood friend,
00:05:49and someone worthy of the Sinclair name.
00:05:52If I were you, I would be worried about the penalty.
00:05:56The $10 million.
00:06:02Mom, I'm so sorry.
00:06:03This is all my fault. I promise I'll find the money for the penalty.
00:06:09No, this isn't your fault.
00:06:11I'm so tired of this video.
00:06:13Ethan, tell them that the engagement is off.
00:06:18I made up my mind.
00:06:20Rachel is going to be my wife.
00:06:21I'm marrying Rachel, and I'm going to treat her with the respect she deserves.
00:06:30Rachel, what kind of wedding would you like?
00:06:37I thought he wanted to call off the engagement.
00:06:40You don't have to decide now.
00:06:42It won't be until summer break.
00:06:43We have time.
00:06:46We're family now.
00:06:48And as a gift, I'm giving you these.
00:06:50Thank God.
00:06:52So, you're not here to call off the engagement.
00:06:55Are you kidding me?
00:06:56Mom, stop this.
00:06:58Ethan!
00:06:59Mom, it's been a long day, and Rachel will start.
00:07:02Okay?
00:07:04Let's have dinner first.
00:07:06Shall we?
00:07:12As long as my parents don't have to worry about the $10 million penalty, I'll do whatever
00:07:16it takes.
00:07:23And just like that, I became a wife to my professor.
00:07:36I heard he's a difficult man.
00:07:38Promise me that you'll tell me if he isn't treating you right.
00:07:43Mom, relax.
00:07:45He's been nothing but a gentleman.
00:07:48Rachel, I know it's not fair.
00:07:50But the future of this family depends on this marriage.
00:07:53And tonight will be your first night.
00:07:55You need to fulfill your duty as a wife.
00:07:59Duty as a wife?
00:08:08Okay, how am I supposed to do this?
00:08:10Do I kiss you first?
00:08:12Or do I wait for him to do it?
00:08:16Crap.
00:08:17I left my clothes outside.
00:08:33It's okay.
00:08:35It's okay.
00:08:37It's okay.
00:08:43Oh my god!
00:08:55You can turn back around now, Professor Sinclair.
00:09:03We're married now, Rachel.
00:09:05You can call me Ethan.
00:09:07Ethan?
00:09:09Can we talk?
00:09:17Can I ask?
00:09:19Why didn't you end our engagement like you said you would?
00:09:21I wanted you to have a choice, Rachel.
00:09:24But if it's causing too much trouble for your family, then I'll keep my word.
00:09:28So he was just feeling pity for me.
00:09:31Of course.
00:09:32What was I thinking?
00:09:33He has his childhood friend waiting for him anyway.
00:09:36He's already met his match.
00:09:38He's a child, he's a friend.
00:09:40But I mean, someone worthy of the Sinclair name.
00:09:48Can you promise me?
00:09:50Promise what?
00:09:50I know that this is just a contractual marriage, and I'm not going to ask you to cut ties with
00:09:55her,
00:09:55but please just don't bring her here.
00:09:59What?
00:10:00Where is this coming from?
00:10:02Look, my mother forced a couple dates on me.
00:10:05That's it.
00:10:06There is no her.
00:10:08I'm a busy man, okay?
00:10:09And I'm a traditional one, too.
00:10:11I chose you, Rachel.
00:10:13And I intend to keep my word to you and to this marriage.
00:10:17But you chose my sister.
00:10:22I chose you.
00:10:25And I promise.
00:10:29I'm loyal to you, and I'm loyal to this marriage.
00:10:51There.
00:10:53It's late.
00:10:54You should get some rest.
00:10:56Take the master bedroom.
00:10:59Uh, it's our wedding night.
00:11:02Shouldn't we, you know, fulfill our duties?
00:11:06Husband and wife and stuff?
00:11:09Are you sure you're ready for husband and wife and stuff?
00:11:14Of course.
00:11:16Yeah, I'm ready.
00:11:28Well, Rachel.
00:11:29You can't let him see you like this.
00:11:38Are you sure you're ready for this?
00:11:41Yes.
00:11:58You're shaking, Rachel.
00:12:00I'm fine.
00:12:01I know what I'm doing.
00:12:03Maybe next time when your heart's in.
00:12:06You have class tomorrow.
00:12:07Get some rest.
00:12:18What did I do wrong?
00:12:24You know, like, what with newlyweds?
00:12:27Rachel?
00:12:28Are you actually engaged?
00:12:33Who's the lucky guy?
00:12:39So, do you love him?
00:12:42No, me.
00:12:44I don't even know if he loves me.
00:12:48Girl, you came to the right person.
00:12:51Listen.
00:12:52Money, sex, love.
00:12:54They all go hand in hand.
00:12:56Which means, a man's love
00:12:59lies between his wallet and his bag.
00:13:12Oh, fuck.
00:13:15Study it.
00:13:18Study it.
00:13:20Oh my god.
00:13:21This is so embarrassing.
00:13:23But again.
00:13:25But you're so young.
00:13:27Come on, Rachel.
00:13:29You're exactly the age for pornos.
00:13:55Rachel.
00:13:56Rachel.
00:13:58Rachel.
00:14:00What are you looking at?

00:21:16Professor Sinclair will never sleep with you.
00:21:20Yeah. Is he really that bored by me?
00:21:26Wait.
00:21:34Ethan, I want you to look at me as your wife.
00:21:54This isn't something you rush, Rachel.
00:21:57You're doing it wrong.
00:21:59But my friend Elena says that what a man's heart is in his wallet or in his bed.
00:22:04We're husband and wife, so...
00:22:06No.
00:22:08Rachel, look at me. Real love is built on trust and respect.
00:22:11But you're right.
00:22:12We are husband and wife.
00:22:14And how about we do this when we're about three?
00:22:38Well, looks like we have a much bigger class this semester, so I will be looking for a TA.
00:22:49Hannah Kinsley, I volunteer.
00:22:58Of course. She's the TA for every male professor.
00:23:06Ms. Kinsley, the highest grade you've received since enrollment is a D.
00:23:11I'm sorry, but you don't qualify.
00:23:20Rachel Dawson.
00:23:28The only straight-A student in my class.
00:23:30Can I count on you?
00:23:38Plenum competition is right around the corner.
00:23:40I think you've got a great shot, and it's a real good opportunity for you.
00:23:43I will.
00:23:44Thank you, E...
00:23:47Professor.
00:23:51She's so lucky.
00:23:53First of all, fiancé, and now she's Professor Speaker's star student.
00:24:04Rachel.
00:24:06Hannah's Angels assigned a costume party.
00:24:09Consider yourself invited.
00:24:13Two invitations?
00:24:14It's couples only.
00:24:16A.K.A.
00:24:18Bring this little son.
00:24:23Uh, we already have plans.
00:24:26Oh, really?
00:24:28Or, here's a theory.
00:24:30Your fiancé's actually a hillbilly that you're too embarrassed to be seen with.
00:24:34You're done?
00:24:35I already told you.
00:24:37We have plans.
00:24:38You've grown quite a backbone since you've gotten engaged, haven't you?
00:24:42News flash.
00:24:44My dad owns your dad.
00:24:47And if you don't bring you and your mystery man to my party tomorrow,
00:24:52your dad will be, like, so fired.
00:24:56Capiche?
00:25:12For real.
00:25:13A hillbilly.
00:25:14No country bunkhand could afford a ring that you.
00:25:20Rachel, I say it's time we give her a reality check.
00:25:29Substitute these expressions and neglect the High Order terms.
00:25:33If it's a costume party, maybe I can hide his face so they won't recognize him.
00:25:41What's wrong?
00:25:44Uh, are you free tomorrow night?
00:25:52I have a business meeting, but why?
00:25:55What's up?
00:25:56Never mind.
00:26:04You got this, Rachel.
00:26:06Just keep her in check.
00:26:08I'm not gonna let you fire my dad, Hannah.
00:26:12I'm having all your things moved over.
00:26:13They should arrive by tonight.
00:26:15Did he really buy all of this?
00:26:18For me?
00:26:24Oh, Charity Girl, got a new dress.
00:26:28You think you deserve it?
00:26:30Freak.
00:26:59I don't know what you like,
00:27:00so I told them to get a little of everything.
00:27:04Here.
00:27:06Take this.
00:27:07There's no spending limit and the pin is your birthday.
00:27:10Have fun.
00:27:14I can't take your money.
00:27:16Besides, I'm a student and I don't need-
00:27:18You still got to hang out with your friends, no?
00:27:23Rachel.
00:27:25What's wrong?
00:27:26Is someone still picking on you?
00:27:27Hannah's father is the school's biggest donor.
00:27:30The truth will only burden him.
00:27:32There's nothing he can do.
00:27:44Everyone,
00:27:45I'd like you to meet my boyfriend, Tyler.
00:27:48His uncle is the dean.
00:27:51Where's Rachel, though?
00:27:53She's probably still digging through some donation bin,
00:27:56looking for ratty dresses the janitor wears.
00:28:24Wait, that's the Rachel you're talking about?
00:28:26Wait, that's the Rachel you're talking about?
00:28:31Damn, she's a total knockout.
00:28:35Damn, she's a total knockout.
00:28:40Where's your fiancé?
00:28:42Unlike you, Hannah, my fiancé actually has a career
00:28:46and he doesn't have time or energy for these petty high school games.
00:28:50Let's be real.
00:28:52What could he possibly do that could make him that important?
00:28:56He's probably just a total wannabe,
00:28:59clinging to someone with actual power and influence, like me.
00:29:13Ethan, with your track record,
00:29:16you could be a tenured professor at any Ivy League.
00:29:19Why limit yourself to junior college?
00:29:38Nothing will stop me from getting into Stanford.
00:29:40Nothing will stop me from becoming a mathematician.
00:29:43Keep going, Rachel.
00:29:49Because I've met someone truly special here.
00:29:52Someone with a lot of potential,
00:29:53and I want to make sure she gets what she deserves.
00:29:56She must be really something to get you to vouch for her.
00:30:00If that's the case, then Stanford would welcome her with open arms.
00:30:06Professor Sinclair,
00:30:07I'm the owner of this establishment.
00:30:09I was hoping I may get a letter of recommendation from you.
00:30:13Okay.
00:30:15For whom?
00:30:16Hannah Kingsley.
00:30:17My daughter.
00:30:18She's also one of your students.
00:30:27Someone with actual power and influence, like me.
00:30:34I heard that your sister dumped your little boyfriend,
00:30:39and you're just picking up her sloppy seconds.
00:30:42Ugh, disgusting.
00:30:45Picking up seconds?
00:30:47That's funny.
00:30:48I don't recall you ever picking up anything.
00:30:50You always got last in all of our classes.
00:30:54I'm going to make you regret ever opening your mouth.
00:31:04Oh, excuse me.
00:31:10Hello?
00:31:11Dad?
00:31:12Adam Dawson's orphan daughter, Rachel.
00:31:15Rachel Dawson?
00:31:16Yeah, she totally offended me.
00:31:19Can you get rid of her?
00:31:21Of course, sweetheart.
00:31:23Fire her dad.
00:31:24Now.
00:31:26She's finished.
00:31:28What did you just say?
00:31:35What are you going to do about it now?
00:31:37Cry to your fiance?
00:31:39What's he going to do about it?
00:31:40Whine like a baby?
00:31:47Please, Professor Sinclair.
00:31:49It's fine.
00:31:50No need.
00:31:51Professor Sinclair, please.
00:31:53Wait.
00:31:54Dad?
00:31:55No, that can't be real.
00:31:56My dad would never, ever apologize to some nobody.
00:32:00I don't know what happened.
00:32:02It's just all of it.
00:32:03It is, Mr. Kingsley.
00:32:04He's apologizing to Rachel's fiance at his own restaurant.
00:32:12You stupid girl.
00:32:13Do you have any idea what you've done?
00:32:15The whole academic world is turning us back on us because of you.
00:32:20Wait.
00:32:20No.
00:32:21Dad, I can explain.
00:32:32Cheers.
00:32:36Wait.
00:32:37No.
00:32:37Dad, I can fix this.
00:32:38What do you want?
00:32:42No.
00:32:46No.
00:32:56No.
00:32:58No.
00:32:59No.
00:32:59No.
00:33:00No.
00:33:00No.
00:33:00No.
00:33:00No.
00:33:02No.
00:33:04No.
00:33:07No.
00:33:14What are you doing here?
00:33:16I was in the neighborhood.
00:33:20I thought I'd give you a lift.
00:33:24In the neighborhood?
00:33:25His dinner was all the way across the city.
00:33:33After you?
00:33:47Have you been drinking?
00:33:50I'm just sparkling.
00:33:57I didn't realize Hannah was being so difficult.
00:34:01Why'd you keep that to yourself?
00:34:03Your dad has a lot of pull at the school.
00:34:05And it will make things complicated for you.
00:34:08Why does she have such a vendetta against you?
00:34:11It's stupid.
00:34:13Our freshman year, she got rejected by a guy who asked me how to know her later.
00:34:18I guess she's never gotten over.
00:34:20I see.
00:34:40First time in heels?
00:34:51I'm so, so, so sorry.
00:35:07I'm so, so, so sorry.
00:35:23Professor Sinclair, I've disciplined Hannah.
00:35:26I promise she won't breathe a word to her ever again.
00:35:29It's Mr.
00:35:31And I don't think I can be your daughter's professor any longer.
00:35:33Mr. Sinclair, I, I understand.
00:35:36She'll transfer out of your class immediately and out of your life.
00:35:39Good.
00:35:50Oh no.
00:35:52This feels a little too...
00:35:54Are you changed yet?
00:35:55Can I come in?
00:36:02What is it bad?
00:36:05What is it bad?
00:36:07No.
00:36:09You're gorgeous.
00:36:23But, it's not Saturday yet.
00:36:25We're not supposed to.
00:36:26I know.
00:36:28It's just a kiss, nothing more.
00:36:30So, it's like, practice?
00:36:35What else do you want to practice?
00:36:41Sometimes it burns, sometimes it hurts, when you say my name, but I think that I...
00:36:58Someone looks like she just won the lottery.
00:37:01Didn't you hear?
00:37:02Tyler and Hannah dropped out of class.
00:37:05Finally, there's no one left to give you a hard time.
00:37:08Dropped out?
00:37:09Is that really a coincidence?
00:37:12Also, a new face is joining the ranks.
00:37:15He's not new to you, though.
00:37:20He's not new to you, though.
00:37:26Are you okay?
00:37:29Long time no see, Rach.
00:37:31Steven?
00:37:33Thanks for the notes.
00:37:36Wait.
00:37:38Steven?
00:37:39I like you.
00:37:41Will you be my boyfriend?
00:37:45Rach, I'm moving abroad.
00:37:47I'm sorry.
00:37:48I can't choose you over my future.
00:37:57Wow, I didn't even recognize you.
00:38:00I'm here for the competition, too.
00:38:02Would you want to get lunch after this?
00:38:12Two years in Switzerland, I never stopped thinking about home, especially this place.
00:38:16Yeah.
00:38:17And the food's really good.
00:38:18You've been disapproved by my fiancé, and he's really picky.
00:38:22Fiancé?
00:38:24Are you engaged?
00:38:28The wedding's next month.
00:38:32What if I had stayed, Rach?
00:38:34Would things be different?
00:38:36Would it be us?
00:38:38There's no ifs, Steven.
00:38:41I love Ethan.
00:38:43I'm exactly where I want to be.
00:38:50Whoa.
00:38:51Careful.
00:38:54Unbelievable.
00:38:55Cheating in broad daylight?
00:38:59Wait till Ethan hears about this.
00:39:06Are you even listening to me?
00:39:08Your wife is cheating on you.
00:39:10I saw her having lunch with another man.
00:39:16And how do you know she's cheating on me?
00:39:18Because they ate together.
00:39:20They laughed.
00:39:21He caught her when she tripped.
00:39:23I...
00:39:24I just knew it.
00:39:26Something felt off.
00:39:29Rachel is my wife, and I trust her.
00:39:31It's perfectly normal for her to have friends of her own.
00:39:35And one more thing.
00:39:38If you can't give her the respect she deserves, it's best you stay out of my sight.
00:39:43But...
00:39:43I'm going home.
00:39:51Fine.
00:39:52Just you wait.
00:39:54I'll make sure you see her true colors.
00:40:01How'd it go?
00:40:03Easy peasy.
00:40:04I beat the clock.
00:40:06And you didn't skip lunch again, did you?
00:40:08No.
00:40:08I went to Lovetta with a friend.
00:40:10I've always wanted to try it there.
00:40:16Now don't go exploring without me, okay?
00:40:19I want to experience every one of you first with you.
00:40:22What's gotten into him?
00:40:24Since when is he so...
00:40:26needy?
00:40:31The competition results are in.
00:40:33I heard if you make it to the next round, you can get a recommendation letter from a Stanford
00:40:37professor.
00:40:38That's insane.
00:40:40Did anyone make it?
00:40:42Rachel, get over here!
00:40:44You did it!
00:40:45You're the only one that made it to the next round.
00:40:48Are you the Rachel Dawson?
00:40:51That's awesome!
00:40:52I can't believe someone from our school is actually going to Stanford.
00:40:55How'd you do it?
00:40:56By spreading her legs, obviously.
00:40:59What the hell are you talking about?
00:41:01Rachel won on merit.
00:41:03Merit?
00:41:04What's the merit in a bargain bin bride and her trailer park wedding?
00:41:09What?
00:41:10Is she married at 19?
00:41:12Who's her husband?
00:41:19Professor Sinclair, I still find it hard to believe someone like you would teach on
00:41:25our campus.
00:41:27Since this competition wouldn't exist without your sponsorship, I'd like to introduce you
00:41:33to the school.
00:41:34That won't be necessary.
00:41:36I'm not used to the spotlight.
00:41:40Rachel!
00:41:43Her fiancé is a sugar daddy.
00:41:45She was ashamed of her face.
00:41:47Go on!
00:41:47Tell us how you won that participation trophy.
00:41:50The rest of us show effort.
00:41:52You show strength.
00:41:54What's your proof?
00:41:55Fine.
00:41:56You want proof?
00:41:57Here's your proof.
00:42:15Is this you?
00:42:16Sucking up some grandpa in the school parking lot?
00:42:20What else did we give you besides the test answers?
00:42:23A sore throat?
00:42:24Or a face full of mom's balls?
00:42:26Cheating on your fiancé and cheating on your test?
00:42:29Damn.
00:42:30You don't exactly aim high at me.
00:42:32I'm taking this up with the dean.
00:42:34Cancel her test score.
00:42:35She doesn't deserve to have a spot at a tough university.
00:42:38Rachel likes to pretend that she's all pure and innocent.
00:42:42But really, she's just a cheap...
00:42:50Steven?
00:42:51I thought I smelled a dumpster fire.
00:42:52You're welcome.
00:42:53My uncle's the dean.
00:42:55You think you're going to play here or you have no idea who you're messing with?
00:43:05Uncle, what are you doing?
00:43:08You arrogant, blind fool.
00:43:11Do you have any idea who you just offended?
00:43:34Professor Sinclair?
00:43:36I'm here for my wife and our rumors.
00:43:41Wife?
00:43:42Did Professor Sinclair just say that Rachel's his wife?
00:43:47No way.
00:43:48I'm at hospital.
00:43:49Yeah, right.
00:43:50She's just a low-life charity queen.
00:43:53How in the hell would she laugh?
00:43:54Hannah.
00:43:54If I recall, your flapping mouth cost her father a great deal last month.
00:43:58She really want to go around, too?
00:44:02But, Professor, you know she's stepping out on you, right?
00:44:05Look at these.
00:44:11Stepping out?
00:44:14What's the problem with picking on my wife?
00:44:16Wait, it was him in the photos this whole time?
00:44:19Does he drop her off every day?
00:44:22She's so lucky to have you.
00:44:23So, this is the happiness she was talking about.
00:44:27Him.
00:44:31So, this is what it feels like.
00:44:33To be a protector.
00:44:36Look, he's the clown now.
00:44:38Let's go think twice before running their mouths again.
00:44:40The board has thoroughly vetted Rachel's place.
00:44:44Her place in the finals is indisputable.
00:44:46I don't want to hear another word of gossip.
00:44:49There's a character assassination in these halls.
00:44:52Wait.
00:44:54School policy forbids faculty-student relationships.
00:44:58They're breaking the rules.
00:45:00You've got a point.
00:45:01They look good together, but it's a serious violation of the school policy.
00:45:04You've got a point.
00:45:08Sinclair should be fired from us.
00:45:11Exactly.
00:45:12Sinclair should be fired from us.
00:45:15Well, professor?
00:45:21Rachel and I are married legally.
00:45:22It's a matter of public record.
00:45:24Look it up.
00:45:24As for the student-teacher issue,
00:45:26the Dawson's in the Sinclair signed a contract over a decade ago.
00:45:29No matter what we're doing,
00:45:31or who we are,
00:45:33she'll always be my wife.
00:45:41Does that clarify things for you, Tyler?
00:45:45It wasn't my idea.
00:45:47It was Hannah's.
00:45:48She was just jealous.
00:45:49She tracked her.
00:45:50She took the photos.
00:45:51You coward!
00:45:52You're throwing me under the bus!
00:45:54Tyler,
00:45:55I'm sure your uncle will make a sound decision.
00:45:58Hannah,
00:46:00last time it was a transfer.
00:46:01This time it's a lawsuit.
00:46:02You slandered my wife
00:46:04and you fabricated a crime against us.
00:46:07My lawyers will be in touch.
00:46:09Tell your father to prepare to lose everything.
00:46:15Professor!
00:46:16Please!
00:46:18No!
00:46:27Thank you for sticking up for me today.
00:46:30You don't have to thank me.
00:46:31I'm your husband.
00:46:33But if anyone ever bullies you again,
00:46:35you tell me right away.
00:46:38Right here.
00:46:39I'll grab the car.
00:46:43Rachel.
00:46:45Need a lift?
00:46:47Uh,
00:46:48Ethan's got me.
00:46:49Thanks.
00:46:50That's it?
00:46:50We're just done?
00:46:51You and the professor live in two different worlds.
00:46:54It might work now,
00:46:54but down the road...
00:47:02I'm sorry for the wait.
00:47:04I'm sorry for the wait.
00:47:05Professor Sinclair.
00:47:07Oh, I know you.
00:47:08Thank you for helping my wife today.
00:47:10Rachel and I have a long history.
00:47:12I trust that she wouldn't do anything like that.
00:47:14A long history?
00:47:22I trust that she wouldn't do anything like that.
00:47:28Rach,
00:47:30I'll see you at Stanford Summer Camp.
00:47:31Okay.
00:47:42So how long have you two known each other?
00:47:44You seem close.
00:47:45We went to high school together.
00:47:48He's the reason I fell for math.
00:47:51I see.
00:47:56Where are you going?
00:47:57Steven just sent over the camp information.
00:47:59I'm just going through it.
00:48:01What's the rush?
00:48:02What?
00:48:03It's not like I have anything else going on.
00:48:15Actually, they do.
00:48:17Like what?
00:48:20Do you want to dance in the rhythm of your heart?
00:48:23We could take a chance in the only way we know.
00:48:28This is not beginning.
00:48:30I'm going to be honest.
00:48:31I'm going to be honest.
00:48:38His kiss
00:48:39is more fierce than ever.
00:48:49Husband and wife and stuff.
00:48:51That's what we agreed on.
00:48:53But it's only Friday.
00:48:56I know.
00:49:27We'll bite yourself.
00:49:33We'll bite yourself.
00:49:46It's early.
00:49:47Stay a little longer.
00:50:02What's wrong?
00:50:04No, it's not that.
00:50:05I'm just going over the orientation notes for the summer camp.
00:50:10Why the long face?
00:50:11They added it an extra round.
00:50:14All these people are at Putnam level.
00:50:15I don't even stand a chance.
00:50:17You're the most gifted student I've ever met.
00:50:20Okay?
00:50:21Just trust yourself and you'll be fine.
00:50:24What if I mess it up?
00:50:26How about I come with you?
00:50:28I have a business meeting in the area anyway.
00:50:31Really?
00:50:34Yes.
00:50:40Did you hear?
00:50:41The top scorer gets a full ride to Stanford
00:50:43and an honorary speech at the finale.
00:50:45Man, I wish that were me.
00:50:47I know, me too.
00:50:50That spot belongs to my wife.
00:50:56How was the exam?
00:50:57Excellent.
00:51:01Also,
00:51:03I have an idea for tonight.
00:51:14It's time for husband and wife and the stuff.
00:51:19It is not Saturday.
00:51:27I can't take that.
00:51:30I'm taking it back.
00:51:31I can't take it back.
00:51:51Welcome.
00:51:52Please sign in here.
00:51:58Are you Rachel Dawson?
00:52:01I shouldn't be telling you this,
00:52:03but you've taken the top spot.
00:52:05You're going to give that speech.
00:52:07Really?
00:52:09You still have time to get ready.
00:52:21I can't believe someone would actually wear
00:52:24that disgusting camp shirt.
00:52:26Typical clearance ride girl.
00:52:28How does she even get in here?
00:52:31Hi, I'm Rachel.
00:52:36Ignore those snobs.
00:52:39Have you heard?
00:52:40Whoever got first place is doing tonight's speech.
00:52:42Wonder who it could be.
00:52:43Actually, it's...
00:52:52That's Edward Grayson.
00:52:54His family owns the DW bank.
00:52:56He is wealthy, savvy, and sexy.
00:53:00The pastor looks expensive.
00:53:02He clearly came prepared.
00:53:04He must be the speaker tonight.
00:53:05The front row is for high scorers only.
00:53:08You don't belong here.
00:53:10Welcome to the Putnam Mathematics Camp.
00:53:12Please all join me as we welcome our honorary speaker,
00:53:15who is also the winner of this year's competition,
00:53:24Rachel Dawson.
00:53:28This can't be real.
00:53:30The results are rigged.
00:53:34How could Rachel Dawson ever ace the test?
00:53:37She looks like she couldn't even finish high school.
00:53:39There's no way she has the highest score here.
00:53:41Okay, okay.
00:53:42Everyone, everyone just calm down.
00:53:44Let me just, let me just look up the records.
00:53:47Rachel Dawson from...
00:53:50East Los Angeles Community College?
00:53:56Hear that?
00:53:57Community College.
00:53:58Give me a break.
00:54:00Everyone in this room comes from the Ivy League.
00:54:03Exactly.
00:54:04This is a math competition,
00:54:05not a competition for lawn mowing or table waiting.
00:54:08How could this community college girl get first place?
00:54:11I am first place.
00:54:13The instructor told me so herself.
00:54:15Really?
00:54:17And did she tell you what score you got?
00:54:20A full score.
00:54:22Full score.
00:54:23There hasn't been a full score in the entire history of this candidate.
00:54:26If you're gonna lie, at least make it plausible.
00:54:29Can we get a live audit?
00:54:31Now?
00:54:32Um, sure, I suppose,
00:54:35but we still follow a strict protocol.
00:54:39And scores are confidential without the candidate's consent.
00:54:43Let's see if those numbers actually check out.
00:54:45You're game.
00:54:48Bring it on.
00:54:50I'm not the one who's about to be embarrassed.
00:54:52Rachel, are you sure about this?
00:55:03So...
00:55:11Wait.
00:55:17Who said you get to cut the line?
00:55:19We'll go first.
00:55:22Yeah.
00:55:23For all we know,
00:55:23she's in cahoots with the moderator.
00:55:26Everything about this smells like a scam.
00:55:29Exactly.
00:55:30We need to make sure the system is above board
00:55:32before she touches it.
00:55:33I'll go first.
00:55:35To prove this thing is fair.
00:55:48See?
00:55:49Fair and square.
00:55:50Or do you need someone else to go?
00:55:52A community college student got a 90?
00:55:55I'll skip my train now.
00:55:56I've definitely been hit 90.
00:55:57Bunch of losers.
00:55:59You're intimidated by a 90?
00:56:01None of you is fit to shine my shoes.
00:56:04Watch closely.
00:56:05This is what a high score looks like.
00:56:07This is what first place looks like.
00:56:24A 110?
00:56:25That means he only dropped one question.
00:56:28That's it.
00:56:29Edward's got the top spot on lock.
00:56:32No.
00:56:34My score's not up there yet.
00:56:35Give it up, Rachel.
00:56:36There's no way you could possibly beat my score.
00:56:39My dad's a board member.
00:56:41He said someone did get a perfect score this year.
00:56:50My dad's a board member.
00:56:51He said someone did get a perfect score this year.
00:56:57That's impossible.
00:56:59Okay.
00:57:00Okay.
00:57:02It's my turn.
00:57:10Wait.
00:57:10What now?
00:57:12Are you ever going to let up?
00:57:14Let's make a bet.
00:57:16On what?
00:57:16If you don't get the perfect score,
00:57:19you'll strip in front of everyone.
00:57:22Ooh, yeah.
00:57:27And if you lose,
00:57:30I'll strip
00:57:31and crawl at your feet
00:57:32and beg
00:57:33for your forgiveness.
00:57:36Deal.
00:57:40She's got some nerve.
00:57:42Talk about social suicide.
00:57:44A perfect score
00:57:46from a community college girl?
00:57:48No way.
00:57:50Grab your popcorn, boys.
00:58:13A perfect score.
00:58:16The Stanford camp exam is a total meat grinder.
00:58:19This is impossible.
00:58:20This can't be real.
00:58:22Talent is talent.
00:58:23And Rachel's in her own league.
00:58:25So, why don't you do what you promised to Rachel
00:58:28and get on the floor and strip.
00:58:29Do it.
00:58:30Do it.
00:58:32Do it.
00:58:33Do it.
00:58:34Do it.
00:58:35Do it.
00:58:35Do it.
00:58:36Do it.
00:58:36The whole thing is rigged.
00:58:38She must have hacked the system
00:58:39and changed her score.
00:58:40Are you all seriously losing your minds
00:58:42over a fraud?
00:58:43Edward,
00:58:44I have done everything you've asked.
00:58:46You wanted an audit.
00:58:47I got it for you.
00:58:49Now it's time that you pay me
00:58:50what I deserve.
00:58:52Pay what?
00:58:54Why the hell would I pay
00:58:55those community college trash?
00:58:57You're nothing but slum scum.
00:59:00Don't you dare.
00:59:18Who the fuck are you?
00:59:21You don't tell me what to do.
00:59:24I'm Ethan Sinclair.
00:59:26Rachel's husband.
00:59:29That's Ethan Sinclair.
00:59:30The Putnam judge
00:59:32who shook the entire math world.
00:59:33Oh my God.
00:59:35That's Ethan Sinclair's wife.
00:59:38To question Rachel's score
00:59:39is to question the integrity
00:59:41of this exam.
00:59:42Feel free to file
00:59:44a form of complaint
00:59:44with Stanford.
00:59:45I still don't buy this
00:59:47unless the dean
00:59:48of Stanford herself.
00:59:51Well said.
00:59:53I'm here to announce
00:59:54the results myself.
00:59:56The top score
00:59:57for this year's
00:59:58entrance exam
00:59:59goes to
01:00:00Rachel Dawson.
01:00:02It's a perfect 120.
01:00:04The results are solid
01:00:06and final.
01:00:08Stanford University
01:00:09is thrilled to award her
01:00:10a full scholarship.
01:00:18Hey.
01:00:19Where are you going?
01:00:21Don't you have a bet
01:00:22to follow through it?
01:00:30I'm sorry.
01:00:32I'm sorry.
01:00:47I forgive him.
01:00:53I guess I'll never be able
01:00:55to replace Ethan.
01:00:57In that case,
01:00:58Rachel,
01:00:59be happy.
01:01:04It's hard to believe
01:01:05L.A. still has
01:01:06hidden gems like this.
01:01:08My family bought this place
01:01:0910 years ago.
01:01:10It's the only place
01:01:11I can actually find some peace.
01:01:15I need to go take a look
01:01:16at the dinner menu
01:01:16for tonight.
01:01:17Feel free to look around.
01:01:25Mr. Sinclair!
01:01:26Rachel,
01:01:27I can't believe Ethan
01:01:28left you hanging.
01:01:29Come,
01:01:30there's someone
01:01:30you must meet.
01:01:34Rachel,
01:01:35this is Bonnie,
01:01:36an old friend of Ethan's.
01:01:37They practically
01:01:39grew up together.
01:01:40Like Ethan,
01:01:40she's also in academia.
01:01:42Bonnie,
01:01:43meet Ethan's wife,
01:01:45Rachel.
01:01:46Miss Sloan?
01:01:50You two know each other?
01:01:52Rachel was
01:01:53in my class.
01:01:55Miss Sinclair,
01:01:58may I have
01:01:59a moment with Rachel
01:02:00in private?
01:02:05Rachel,
01:02:07congrats on
01:02:08the competition.
01:02:10And with
01:02:11Ethan.
01:02:13Thank you,
01:02:14Miss Sloan.
01:02:17It's funny.
01:02:19It feels like
01:02:20everyone else's
01:02:22love life
01:02:22is much simpler
01:02:23than mine.
01:02:25Is everything okay?
01:02:27We
01:02:29grew up together.
01:02:31I spent
01:02:32my whole life
01:02:33assuming that
01:02:34we were meant to be.
01:02:37Until
01:02:38he traded us
01:02:40for an arranged marriage.
01:02:42To some
01:02:43blank slate
01:02:46that's your age.
01:02:49I'm so sorry
01:02:50to hear that,
01:02:51Miss Sloan.
01:02:51I'm sure you'll find
01:02:53someone who will
01:02:53truly cherish you.
01:02:55Ugh.
01:02:56I'm so embarrassed.
01:02:58I, um,
01:02:59shouldn't be
01:03:00offloading
01:03:01all of this
01:03:01onto my student.
01:03:03It's just...
01:03:06It's
01:03:06a lot
01:03:08to carry
01:03:09alone.
01:03:12enough of me.
01:03:14Have you two
01:03:15had the wedding yet?
01:03:17Not until next month.
01:03:19I
01:03:20know
01:03:20a
01:03:21boutique
01:03:22that has the most
01:03:23incredible
01:03:24bridal gowns.
01:03:25Let's go tomorrow.
01:03:28Something about this
01:03:29doesn't feel right.
01:03:34Why do I have to
01:03:35babysit this
01:03:36charity case
01:03:37while she tries
01:03:37on gowns?
01:03:38My schedule
01:03:39is packed.
01:03:40Do you think
01:03:41I want to be here?
01:03:42It is a small
01:03:43price to pay
01:03:44for our
01:03:45reputation.
01:03:46Come on.
01:04:08Sloan, are you sure
01:04:09about this?
01:04:10Something feels
01:04:11off.
01:04:11Don't be ridiculous.
01:04:13You look great.
01:04:15Now,
01:04:15chop chop,
01:04:17Mrs. Sinclair
01:04:17and Emily
01:04:17are waiting.
01:04:18I, you know
01:04:19that I...
01:04:31Well,
01:04:32I hate to admit it,
01:04:34but the gutter
01:04:34actually cleans
01:04:35up quite nicely.
01:04:38Mrs. Sinclair,
01:04:41that's more like it.
01:04:54I'm too dumb
01:04:55to be able
01:04:56to wear a dress.
01:04:57No,
01:04:58it wasn't me.
01:04:59I swear,
01:04:59I...
01:05:05I...
01:05:05I...
01:05:05I...
01:05:05I...
01:05:06I...
01:05:06I...
01:05:06What's a gutter rat?
01:05:07Oh,
01:05:08what's a gutter rat?
01:05:20Why are you doing
01:05:22this to me?
01:05:22Because you stole
01:05:23the man I love,
01:05:24bitch.
01:05:25I was supposed
01:05:26to be Ethan's wife,
01:05:27not you.
01:05:31It's you.
01:05:32You're the
01:05:33childhood crush.
01:05:39You're late
01:05:40to the party,
01:05:40dumbass.
01:05:43No.
01:05:48Bridal shop.
01:05:50Looks like she has
01:05:51this prize waiting
01:05:52for me.
01:06:00Rachel.
01:06:08Where's Rachel?
01:06:10Ethan,
01:06:11all I've ever
01:06:12wanted is to wear
01:06:14a wedding dress
01:06:14for you,
01:06:15even if it's
01:06:16just this once.
01:06:19I'm gonna ask
01:06:20you one last time.
01:06:22Where's my wife?
01:06:49Rachel.
01:06:51Rachel,
01:06:52it's okay,
01:06:52I'm here.
01:07:18If anyone ever
01:07:19comes at my wife again,
01:07:21you're declaring war
01:07:22on me.
01:07:22Trust me,
01:07:23it won't end
01:07:24well for you.
01:07:26And Bonnie,
01:07:27don't ever show
01:07:28your face
01:07:28in front of me again.
01:07:30Now get out!
01:07:35Rachel,
01:07:35I'm sorry.
01:07:37I should have told
01:07:37you about Bonnie
01:07:38sooner and made
01:07:39sure she stayed
01:07:39away from you.
01:07:40This is all my fault.
01:07:42So was she
01:07:43the childhood
01:07:43crush that
01:07:44Miss Sinclair
01:07:45told me about?
01:07:46The one you're
01:07:46supposed to marry?
01:07:48she's just a family
01:07:49friend,
01:07:49nothing more.
01:07:50Years ago,
01:07:50she stayed here
01:07:51for a week
01:07:51while I was
01:07:52out of town.
01:07:53But we hardly
01:07:54even cross paths.
01:08:01It's only ever
01:08:03been you,
01:08:03Rachel.
01:08:09her hands.
01:08:10They're bleeding.
01:08:12It's just a scratch.
01:08:13No, no, no,
01:08:14it'll get infected.
01:08:15Hold on,
01:08:16stay here,
01:08:16wait for me.
01:08:22Lily!
01:08:24Are you getting
01:08:25married?
01:08:25To who?
01:08:27You ran away,
01:08:28so I had to take
01:08:28your place
01:08:29and marry Ethan.
01:08:31No, no, no,
01:08:31call off the wedding.
01:08:32You cannot marry
01:08:33Sinclair.
01:08:37I'm sorry,
01:08:37Rachel,
01:08:38but this is for
01:08:38your own good.
01:08:39You can't get
01:08:40married.
01:08:41Wait,
01:08:41where have you been?
01:08:42We've been looking
01:08:43everywhere for you.
01:08:44I was with Mike.
01:08:47Wait,
01:08:47Lily,
01:08:48what happened?
01:08:49Why are you
01:08:50acting like this?
01:08:50You're scaring me.
01:08:52Because
01:08:53I was wrong
01:08:54about him.
01:08:55I can't believe
01:08:56I was so blind
01:08:57to what a scumbag
01:08:58he is.
01:09:00It's over.
01:09:02We're done.
01:09:06Rachel,
01:09:07don't do it.
01:09:09Love,
01:09:11it's just
01:09:11a different way
01:09:12to get hurt.
01:09:14I know
01:09:15that Ethan
01:09:16is the perfect match.
01:09:18But look at me.
01:09:20This
01:09:20is how love
01:09:21plays out
01:09:22in the real world.
01:09:23One day,
01:09:24all that sweet talk
01:09:26turns into
01:09:27a honey trap.
01:09:38I've gone through
01:09:39the details
01:09:40of our wedding.
01:09:48Rachel,
01:09:50if you have even
01:09:51the slightest doubt
01:09:52about this,
01:09:53we can walk away
01:09:53right now,
01:09:54okay?
01:09:54I want you to be happy,
01:09:56to be free,
01:09:57and I hope that's
01:09:58what this marriage
01:09:58is to you.
01:10:01his words swept away
01:10:02every last bit
01:10:03of my hesitation.
01:10:05Ethan,
01:10:06thank you for giving me
01:10:08the chance to choose
01:10:08for myself.
01:10:11But even if I had
01:10:12a million chances,
01:10:14I would still choose you.
01:10:26richer for poorer
01:10:27in sickness
01:10:28and in health.
01:10:30On weekdays
01:10:32and on weekends,
01:10:37a secret known
01:10:38only to the two
01:10:39of us.
01:10:52You may now
01:10:53kiss the bride.
01:10:57little did I know,
01:10:59Ethan fell for me
01:11:00because...
01:11:01your struggle
01:11:02is as beautiful
01:11:03as it is.
01:11:04nd the time
01:11:04is as beautiful
01:11:06as it is.
01:11:08the love
01:11:09that you're all
