00:00:19Where's Mr. X?
00:00:36PH 909 Target acquired, PH 909
00:01:10Well, well, well
00:01:11Wait, Victor?
00:01:16Hello, Sarah
00:01:17Miss me?
00:01:19You know this guy?
00:01:20Oh, she knows me very well
00:01:21Looks like my mark's still there
00:01:27You're internationally wanted, stand down
00:01:29Nobody has to die today
00:01:33Die?
00:01:36No
00:01:38If I die, everyone dies
00:01:42Sarah, we can still disarm it
00:01:46When you sent me to prison
00:01:48You knew I'd come back for you
00:01:55No
00:01:56What are you doing?
00:01:57I've always done the cleaning
00:01:59This time, it's yours
00:02:04See you in hell
00:02:08No
00:02:11You crazy bitch
00:02:13No
00:02:28Once this final mission wraps up
00:02:30Go live your own life and be a regular civilian
00:02:43You are free now
00:02:44And I only climbed in
00:02:46So I can fall
00:02:49And you can turn my only hope
00:02:54Dad
00:02:55Dad
00:02:56Dad
00:03:05I told her to keep her quiet
00:03:11You killed me
00:03:13You killed my dog!
00:03:16It wouldn't shut up.
00:03:17Neither will you.
00:03:28Please, help me!
00:03:30He's going to kill me!
00:03:31Who the hell are you?
00:03:33Walk away, or you're next.
00:03:42She said stop.
00:03:44What, you think you're some kind of hero?
00:03:50Let's see.
00:04:08The only thing I hate more than a target
00:04:10is a man who hits women.
00:04:23What the hell are you?
00:04:32You have no idea who my brother is.
00:04:40He's the CEO of...
00:04:44Please, stop.
00:04:46I swear, I'll never touch her again.
00:04:49I'll never hurt any woman.
00:04:52I swear, I'll never touch her again.
00:05:05Oh man.
00:05:20And if he moves, hit him back.
00:05:38Ava, trust me on this.
00:05:40Ethan Cross, the most eligible bachelor in the city.
00:05:42Generous, kind, treats everyone like gold.
00:05:45I just want a normal life.
00:05:47Exactly.
00:05:48He needs a wife, you need a fresh start.
00:05:50Perfect.
00:06:10I'll replace it.
00:06:12Please forgive me.
00:06:14When something's dirty, it should be cleaned.
00:06:18No!
00:06:36They're here.
00:06:37You know, one of them might become my wife.
00:06:39Go to the kitchen.
00:06:40Don't embarrass me in front of my guests.
00:06:52You must be Ava. Welcome.
00:06:57Ava, Ethan runs Novatec.
00:07:00Brilliant, successful, and way too good lucky for his own good.
00:07:05You're making me sound better than I am.
00:07:17I-I'm so sorry, miss.
00:07:19Don't worry about it.
00:07:20Guess I'm a little on edge today.
00:07:24So tell me about yourself.
00:07:25What do you do?
00:07:26I just left my job, actually.
00:07:28I was an agey-
00:07:31Adge?
00:07:32Administratum assistant.
00:07:34That tracks.
00:07:35You seem grounded.
00:07:36I respect people who know their role.
00:07:39What's going on?
00:07:40Go take care of it.
00:07:44My daughter, she's having a rough moment.
00:07:53Is she okay?
00:07:54I'm good with kids.
00:07:55Let me help.
00:08:12What is this, Mr. Cross?
00:08:13You tie a child up like this?
00:08:17Ava, please.
00:08:18I'm so sorry you had to see this.
00:08:20Lily has severe regressive autism.
00:08:22When an episode hits, she hurts herself.
00:08:24Bites.
00:08:25Tries to choke.
00:08:26This was a last resort.
00:08:27A specialist recommendation.
00:08:31Since Kate-
00:08:32Since my wife died in that accident,
00:08:36everything I do is to keep Lily safe.
00:08:38I'm sorry. I jumped to the wrong conclusion.
00:08:40You're doing your best.
00:08:46I'm sorry.
00:08:46After that, Ethan and I started dating.
00:08:49Gentle and warm.
00:08:51He made me feel safe.
00:08:54Every gesture told me
00:08:56he was the one I'd marry.
00:08:59I'll take them all.
00:09:22No more blood.
00:09:24No more missions.
00:09:25Just peace.
00:09:28No more blood.
00:09:30Just peace.
00:09:32Mrs. Cross, this is my last day.
00:09:35Maria, you're leaving?
00:09:44Cross, you seem like a good person, please.
00:09:48Get out of this house.
00:09:51Leave him.
00:09:56Maria, what are you talking about?
00:10:01I'll be leaving now.
00:10:03Maria!
00:10:10Who did this to you?
00:10:12No.
00:10:13I fell.
00:10:15Please.
00:10:16Just let me go.
00:10:18Is everything alright, darling?
00:10:21Why did you let Maria go like that?
00:10:23Poor Maria.
00:10:25Her husband's been hurting her for years.
00:10:29Really?
00:10:36You're safe here.
00:10:37Don't worry about her.
00:10:40My aunt and uncle are coming tonight.
00:10:42A small welcome dinner.
00:10:43Would you cook?
00:10:45I want them to meet my perfect wife.
00:10:48Of course.
00:11:01Lily, you want to go outside?
00:11:04Do you want me to take you out of here?
00:11:06You're worried I'm going to take your dad away?
00:11:08I'm not.
00:11:09We'll figure this out together.
00:11:10It's okay.
00:11:14Sweetheart, this is my home now.
00:11:16I'm not going anywhere.
00:11:18Lily, stop.
00:11:19I'm in the middle of cooking.
00:11:24Lily!
00:11:25Hey!
00:11:26What's wrong?
00:11:27Lily, stop.
00:11:28I'm in the middle of cooking.
00:11:40Lily?
00:11:41Don't look at it.
00:11:43You're okay.
00:11:55Hey.
00:11:57I've got you.
00:11:59Nobody's going to hurt you.
00:12:12Ava.
00:12:13Please.
00:12:14I'm so sorry you had to see this.
00:12:16Lily has severe regressive autism.
00:12:18When an episode hits, she hurts herself.
00:12:29I'll look after you, Lily.
00:12:31No more restraints.
00:12:33Ever.
00:12:34Just try to keep yourself safe, okay?
00:12:41Stay here.
00:12:42Dinner will be ready soon.
00:12:45Run.
00:12:48Run.
00:12:49Did you just...
00:12:51S...
00:12:51Speak?
00:12:55Run.
00:12:56Daddy is...
00:12:58Bad.
00:12:58Bad.
00:13:08You can talk?
00:13:13When you say bad, did something happen?
00:13:18S...
00:13:20S...
00:13:24Maybe you're just scared.
00:13:27Tying you up wasn't right.
00:13:29I'll talk to him.
00:13:30We'll fix it.
00:13:32If you don't want to talk, draw.
00:13:34Anything you want me to know.
00:13:36I'm going to finish dinner.
00:13:51Uncle Silas.
00:13:53Uncle Silas.
00:13:53Aunt Mildred.
00:13:54Welcome.
00:13:56House looks in order.
00:13:58At least the new wife knows her place.
00:14:01Shame Chad couldn't make it.
00:14:03What happened to Chad?
00:14:04I heard he's in the hospital.
00:14:05Don't remind me!
00:14:06A Cross man beaten half to death by a woman.
00:14:09Disgraceful!
00:14:10That woman was vicious.
00:14:12Chad just wasn't prepared.
00:14:14Men are meant to leave.
00:14:15When women forget their place, this is what happens.
00:14:24The gravy's ready.
00:14:26Hmm.
00:14:27This one looks...
00:14:28Domestic.
00:14:29Solid.
00:14:30Well, Ava, congratulations.
00:14:32Marrying into the Cross family is quite the blessing.
00:14:36Sturdier than Kate at least.
00:14:38That one was too fragile.
00:14:39Embarrassed the whole family.
00:14:51Wine.
00:15:02Ava?
00:15:04Sigh.
00:15:06Sigh.
00:15:08Sigh.
00:15:11Sigh.
00:15:14Sigh.
00:15:17Sigh.
00:15:19Sigh.
00:15:19Sigh.
00:15:19Sigh.
00:15:20Even poor Winerite.
00:15:21No grace.
00:15:23No class.
00:15:24Ethan, where did you find this woman?
00:15:26Honestly, Ava, that was careless.
00:15:27You need to learn some manners.
00:15:29Know your place at this table.
00:15:38Would you like some?
00:15:41Are you deaf?
00:15:42I'm talking to you.
00:15:43Easy, Uncle.
00:15:44Easy?
00:15:45She's looking right through me.
00:15:46You don't reason with women like this, Ethan.
00:15:48You break them.
00:15:49A hand.
00:15:50A bruise.
00:15:51They learn fast.
00:15:52That's how you keep order.
00:15:58Easy?
00:15:59She's looking right through me.
00:16:00You don't reason with women like this, Ethan.
00:16:02You break them.
00:16:03A hand.
00:16:04A bruise.
00:16:05They learn fast.
00:16:06That's how you keep order!
00:16:11Uncle Simus calmed down.
00:16:12She's new.
00:16:13Clean this up.
00:16:14Don't ruin their appetite.
00:16:16The oven's on.
00:16:16I can't leave it.
00:16:18So you want me to do it?
00:16:19What kind of wife argues over something this small?
00:16:22Always making excuses.
00:16:24A badly raised child grows into the same kind of woman.
00:16:27Loud.
00:16:29Stubborn.
00:16:29Useless.
00:16:30You.
00:16:31Pick up that glass.
00:16:32Don't end up like her.
00:16:33A burden.
00:16:34A disgrace.
00:16:35A curse on any man foolish enough to keep you.
00:16:46If Ethan won't teach you how to behave, I will.
00:17:00That's enough, you worthless relic!
00:17:10How dare you lay a hand on him!
00:17:12You're out of your mind!
00:17:23You hit me?
00:17:24Women are for hitting.
00:17:26Know your place.
00:17:27Get on your knees and apologize to my uncle and aunt or I will break you.
00:17:31Apologize?
00:17:32I'm not the one who owes anyone an apology.
00:17:35He is.
00:17:36How dare you!
00:17:38Make her crawl, Ethan!
00:17:39In this house, no woman defies a man, let alone strikes one's cross-free line!
00:17:45Utterly shameless!
00:17:47Rules?
00:17:48Let me show you mine.
00:17:53Shut up!
00:17:54Still defy it!
00:17:58Get off me, worthless brat!
00:18:01Still defying me!
00:18:02No!
00:18:07Go live your own life and be a regular civilian.
00:18:11I tried.
00:18:13I wanted a normal life.
00:18:15I really did.
00:18:16But, he doesn't deserve it.
00:18:32Dinner is over.
00:18:42You tried to hit your own daughter.
00:18:44What does that make you, Ethan?
00:18:45In this house, I am the law.
00:18:47I let you in.
00:18:48Don't forget that.
00:18:49You don't get to judge me.
00:18:51Disgraceful.
00:18:52A woman who doesn't know her place.
00:18:54The Cross family gave you everything.
00:18:57And this is how you repay us?
00:19:07Yeah, I am.
00:19:09Now what?
00:19:10This whole family's rotten.
00:19:12You, a pathetic old parasite.
00:19:15All you do is take your rage out on women and kids.
00:19:18And you, a victim who chose to side with your abuser.
00:19:21A gentleman in public, but a coward behind closed doors.
00:19:26Filthy!
00:19:27Say one more word, I'd break your legs.
00:19:29Get out!
00:19:31This isn't finished.
00:19:34Do you have any idea what the consequences of this will be?
00:19:37Consequences?
00:19:37You started this war.
00:19:38If you've got a spine, come do something about it.
00:19:41You think I won't?
00:19:42I'm a Taekwondo black belt.
00:19:44If you won't stay in line, I'll put you there myself.
00:19:49Last chance.
00:19:51On your knees.
00:19:52Beg.
00:19:53Maybe I let you stay.
00:19:55Your turn.
00:19:57Apologize to Lily.
00:19:58Swear you'll never touch her again.
00:20:00And maybe you walk away.
00:20:02You're gonna regret this.
00:20:10You're dead!
00:20:14Lily!
00:20:15Lily!
00:20:35Doctor, what's wrong with her?
00:20:37Long-term trauma, severe PTSD, selective mutoism.
00:20:41Trauma? So she wasn't born like this?
00:20:46No, she didn't lose her voice. She buried it.
00:20:49What can I do?
00:20:50A service animal could help. She needs to feel safe again.
00:20:54And she's got old injuries. Multiple.
00:21:01What did you do to her? You said she was born like this.
00:21:05This is on you. You brought chaos into my house.
00:21:07The doctor said long-term. That means years.
00:21:10Where did the injuries come from?
00:21:12Kids fall. You accusing me now?
00:21:16Run!
00:21:19Run.
00:21:20Run.
00:21:22Daddy is bad.
00:21:27I need everything on Ethan Cross's ex-wife.
00:21:30Real cause of death, police, medical, dig it all up.
00:21:40You wanna go home?
00:21:47Lily.
00:21:50Did your dad do this to your mom?
00:21:55You think your mom's death was an accident?
00:21:59Are you sure?
00:22:07It's okay. Just tell me the truth.
00:22:10If I leave him, do you wanna come with me?
00:22:17I promise you.
00:22:18We're getting out. Together.
00:22:26Do you like him?
00:22:27His name's Hope.
00:22:32Go play. Stay where I can see you.
00:22:35We're gonna get out of time.
00:22:37It's okay.
00:22:38We're gonna get out of time.

00:26:51I want to try again.
00:26:55Sorry, Ava.
00:26:57Don't be.
00:26:59I'll protect you.
00:27:00I promise.
00:27:01No matter what it takes.

00:27:09I've been thinking, without this marriage, I'm nothing.
00:27:14Now you get it.

00:27:17I stay for the evidence.
00:27:18For Lily.
00:27:19So he never gets near her again.
00:27:21I was wrong.
00:27:22I forgot my place.
00:27:23Can you forgive me?
00:27:25That's better.
00:27:26Let the IPO go through.
00:27:28Then I'll make you regret everything.

00:27:37Of course.
00:27:44Damn.

00:28:56What the hell is going on?
00:29:00It's her.
00:29:01It's her.
00:29:04You two know each other?
00:29:06It's her.
00:29:11Charred, what are you talking about?
00:29:13Ethan, she...
00:29:17Ethan, your cousin's got quite the imagination.
00:29:23Sorry.
00:29:24I'm terrible with faces.
00:29:26Have we met?
00:29:27No.
00:29:28I got it wrong.
00:29:29Just hit my head.
00:29:31Everything's fuzzy.
00:29:33Pathetic.
00:29:34Get it together, Chad.
00:29:35This is my wife.
00:29:36Ava, this is Chad, my cousin.
00:29:38Oh.
00:29:39Then let me help.
00:29:43I'm fine.
00:29:44Really.
00:29:52Please.
00:29:53Stop.
00:29:54Jesus.
00:29:55It's a scratch.
00:29:56Ever since that woman put you in the hospital, you've been useless.
00:29:59Did you find her?
00:30:00The one who attacked you?
00:30:06I want her.
00:30:08I'll show her what happens when you touch a cross.
00:30:18No.
00:30:19No.
00:30:20I never found her.
00:30:23She vanished.
00:30:27If we don't repay in 48 hours, everything freezes.
00:30:30Company, villa, all of it.
00:30:33The IPO funds are locked.
00:30:34I need a bridge, though.
00:30:35Who's in the park?
00:30:35Can we stall him?
00:30:36Mr. Vance, easy to reach.
00:30:39But he has tastes.
00:30:41What kind of tastes?
00:30:42Single.
00:30:43Rich.
00:30:43Likes.
00:30:44Entertainment.
00:30:48Then my wife has use.
00:30:49She'll be the perfect gift.
00:30:50Ethan, no.
00:30:51That woman, she's not what you think.
00:30:52She's a monster.
00:30:53Darling?
00:30:58I brought fruit.
00:30:59You looked busy.
00:31:02Did someone say my name?
00:31:04No.
00:31:04Just work.
00:31:07Thanks.
00:31:08Always thoughtful.
00:31:09You both look tense.
00:31:10An apple a day.
00:31:12Especially good for people who talk too much.
00:31:18Chad?
00:31:19Want one?
00:31:21Don't.
00:31:21Don't come near me.
00:31:22What's wrong with you?
00:31:23You look like you've seen a ghost.
00:31:25Nothing.
00:31:26Just low blood sugar.
00:31:27No.
00:31:28I crushed it.
00:31:29I'll cut another.
00:31:30No.
00:31:31This is fine.
00:31:32I'll eat it.
00:31:36Get a grip.
00:31:38We're fine.
00:31:38You can go.
00:31:39Of course.
00:31:45Chad knows.
00:31:46I need proof.
00:31:48Fast.
00:31:49Ava, remember.
00:31:52High IQ criminals always share one trait.
00:31:56They keep trophies.
00:31:58Pain becomes proof.
00:32:00Power becomes a collection.
00:32:15What do you want?
00:32:18What do you want?
00:32:19What?
00:32:23Ethan's right outside.
00:32:25What are you doing?
00:32:28Then talk.
00:32:29You're close to Ethan.
00:32:31You know where he keeps what matters.
00:32:33Where is it?
00:32:35I don't know.
00:32:39Wrong answer.
00:32:41I can make this look like a very sad accident.
00:32:44I swear.
00:32:45I don't know.
00:32:47Last chance.
00:32:48I have a hundred ways to make you beg for death.
00:32:50Pick one.
00:32:50The safe.
00:32:51In the study.
00:32:52Behind the painting.
00:32:53I don't know the code.
00:32:54I swear.
00:32:54Good.
00:32:55Say a word.
00:32:56And you stop breathing.
00:32:57Got it?
00:33:02Chad?
00:33:03Who are you talking to?
00:33:07What the hell is going on?
00:33:09Ethan, thank God I came for towels.
00:33:12He cornered me.
00:33:13What?
00:33:13No, she's lying.
00:33:14She...
00:33:16I told him no.
00:33:18He wouldn't stop.
00:33:24You disgusting pig!
00:33:27Get out of my house!
00:33:35You okay?
00:33:36This is on me.
00:33:37I'm okay.
00:33:39As long as you believe me.
00:33:41Of course I do.
00:33:47Drink this.
00:33:48It'll calm you down.
00:33:59I think everything's going to be fine.
00:34:05Mr. Vance.
00:34:06Room 402.
00:34:08The gift is ready.
00:34:22Once I get them on camera, they're both mine.
00:34:30Mrs. Cross.
00:34:32I'm sorry.
00:34:34Mrs. Cross.
00:34:35I'm sorry.
00:34:36Please.
00:34:37Have mercy.
00:34:39Mr. Vance?
00:34:41What the hell happened?
00:34:43Him.
00:34:44He drugged you.
00:34:46Said I could do anything.
00:34:50I could do anything.
00:34:52What?
00:34:54You're insane.
00:34:56Ava.
00:34:57Mr. Vance.
00:34:58You're done here.
00:35:00Yes.
00:35:01Yes.
00:35:01Yes, I'm going.
00:35:04You set me up, you bastard.
00:35:06Enjoy going broke.
00:35:09You ruined everything.
00:35:10That was billions.
00:35:11You think you can play me?
00:35:13I've been too soft.
00:35:14That ends now.
00:35:17I've been too soft.
00:35:18That ends now.
00:35:19Go ahead.
00:35:20Hit me.
00:35:20Then I call the cops, tell them my husband drugged me and sold me.
00:35:23You have no proof.
00:35:26Him.
00:35:26He drugged you so that I could do anything.
00:35:29If this gets out, you're finished.
00:35:32Start with your stuff.
00:35:34Don't get cocky.
00:35:35Without the cross name, you're nothing.
00:35:37Go home.
00:35:38Remember your place.
00:35:49Hey, executive package.
00:35:51Look at him.
00:35:52Pick one.
00:35:53Not tonight.
00:35:54What did your perfect on the outside husband do now?
00:35:56Forget that loser.
00:35:57He's not a loser, Robin.
00:35:59He's a monster.
00:36:27I found his trophy room.
00:36:29What was in it?
00:36:30Torn clothes, blood on cuff glinks, and this.
00:36:44The more you cry, the better.
00:36:48Oh my God.
00:36:50He filmed it.
00:36:51He likes to relive it.
00:36:52You think he killed her?
00:36:53That's why I called you.
00:36:55You were right.
00:36:56Her parents tried to sue.
00:36:57He crushed them.
00:36:57Paid them off.
00:36:58Ten million.
00:36:58Shipped them to Europe with an NDA.
00:37:01Sarah, you wouldn't look away either.
00:37:03Not while he's still breathing.
00:37:05He'll pay for every drop of blood he took.
00:37:12Shut up.
00:37:14Shut up!
00:37:17Even you, a dog, thinks it can look down on me?
00:37:24Anything that disobeys, dies.
00:37:46Everyone leaves, the bank, the board, even the damn help.
00:37:53Daddy.
00:37:55You filthy mud, you'll bark at me!
00:38:01Hope, no!
00:38:03Come back!
00:38:05Hope, no!
00:38:11Do you like him?
00:38:13His name's Hope.
00:38:16No!
00:38:17Come back!
00:38:19No!
00:38:19No!
00:38:20No!
00:38:20No!
00:38:24No!
00:38:26Hope.
00:38:27Move.
00:38:31That's the price.
00:38:35Remember it.
00:38:45No!
00:38:47No!
00:38:48Lily!
00:38:50Lily!
00:38:50Lily!
00:38:50Lily!
00:38:50Lily!
00:38:51Lily!
00:38:58I've got you.
00:38:59Help, help.
00:39:02Ethan, what the hell is wrong with you?
00:39:05Just disciplining an animal and reminding you who's in charge.
00:39:12Take her.
00:39:13Lock the door.
00:39:14Don't come back.
00:39:18I've seen a lot of trash.
00:39:19Nothing worse than a coward who preys on the weak.
00:39:22Spare me.
00:39:24In this house, I am the law.
00:39:26Tonight, you learn the cost of defiance.
00:39:39Let go!
00:39:40Taking lives?
00:39:42Let's call this a down payment.
00:39:55Funny.
00:39:56You laughed when you killed the dog.
00:39:58Now it hurts?
00:40:02That was for the dog.
00:40:03Lily's still coming.
00:40:07You crazy bitch!
00:40:20Is that your only name?
00:40:24You like choking people?
00:40:32Help somebody.
00:40:40Go ahead.
00:40:42Call the cops.
00:40:43Tell them the great Ethan Cross got dropped by his wife.
00:40:48Murder!
00:40:55Then go to hell!
00:41:09Do it.
00:41:14You think this toy makes you dangerous?
00:41:16Wait, wait.
00:41:17I'm sorry.
00:41:17I screwed up.
00:41:19Did you?
00:41:20Did you?
00:41:22Did you?
00:41:27A coward who preys on women and kids?
00:41:29Not worth a bullet.
00:41:30From now on, you answer to me.
00:41:32My fists are the only law you've got.
00:41:38Stop!
00:41:39Please!
00:41:39I'll divorce you!
00:41:40Oh?
00:41:41And Lily?
00:41:43She's yours.
00:41:44All yours.
00:41:45I won't fight it.
00:41:48Too late.
00:41:49I changed my mind.
00:41:51Name your price.
00:41:51I'll pay anything.
00:41:52That's the problem.
00:41:53If I let you walk, you'll just ruin someone else.
00:41:55Then, what do you want?
00:41:57I want you breathing.
00:41:59Right here.
00:42:00Under me.
00:42:02Every morning you wake up wondering,
00:42:03is today the day I end you?
00:42:06Your hell is just getting started.
00:42:10Please.
00:42:12Eat.
00:42:21This is disgusting.
00:42:23You don't feed me.
00:42:26Eat.
00:42:27You hear me?
00:42:41Is this even trash?
00:43:03Crawl and don't spill a drop.
00:43:12Spill one drop and you'll regret it.
00:43:15I'll replace it.
00:43:16Please forgive me.
00:43:18When something's dirty,
00:43:20it should be cleaned.
00:43:25Go to the kitchen.
00:43:27Don't embarrass me in front of my guests.
00:43:33Can't even carry coffee.
00:43:36Useless.
00:43:44Thank God.
00:43:45She is not here.
00:43:50Ava!
00:43:54I didn't know you were home.
00:43:59Long day, Ethan.
00:44:01Drink.
00:44:01You've earned it.
00:44:05Drink.
00:44:07I won't hurt you tonight.
00:44:08Yeah.
00:44:09Yes.
00:44:24Ethan.
00:44:25I'm back now.
00:44:27No.
00:44:27You're dead.
00:44:28You're dead.
00:44:29Why did you do it?
00:44:32I don't know what you mean.
00:44:33Why did you kill me?
00:44:34Thought I wouldn't come back?
00:44:36You made me do it.
00:44:37You kept trying to leave.
00:44:38It was your fault.
00:44:40You want to confess?
00:44:41Tell me what you did that night.
00:44:47Say it.
00:44:48What did you do?
00:44:50What did you do?
00:44:56What did you do?
00:44:58Wake up.
00:45:00Don't fake it.
00:45:04I can't do this anymore.
00:45:06Please, let me go.
00:45:19It's all here.
00:45:21The house.
00:45:22My shares.
00:45:23Lily.
00:45:24Take everything.
00:45:26Just sign.
00:45:27Let me go.
00:45:29Let you go?
00:45:31Kate begged you the same way.
00:45:33Didn't she?
00:45:34Did you let her go?
00:45:40I don't know what you're talking about.
00:45:43Please.
00:45:44I'll leave.
00:45:45I'll raise Lily alone.
00:45:46I don't want anything.
00:45:48Just let me go.
00:45:52You're dreaming.
00:45:53Remember, I own you.
00:45:55You're never leaving.
00:46:00Didn't get it?
00:46:02I'll beat it into you.

00:46:07That's ten slaps.

00:52:58You die, and I'll let you go.
00:53:12Look, someone's on the ledge.
00:53:14Is that Ethan Cross, the CEO of Cross Group?
00:53:17One more step and I let go!
00:53:21Mr. Cross, look at me. Stay with us.
00:53:23Step back slowly. We're here to help.
00:53:25He's my nephew. Ethan, don't do this. Come back inside. We can talk.
00:53:28I can't take it anymore.
00:53:29My wife, Ava, she's a monster.
00:53:31She tortured me. Gaslit me.
00:53:33I just want to be with Cainte, my only love.
00:53:35Did you hear that? He looks terrified.
00:53:37Nobody does this unless something's really wrong.
00:53:46Still playing the victim, Ethan?
00:53:49Fine. Let's give them a tragedy.
00:53:53Ethan, please, come down. I know the company's crushing you.
00:53:56I know your depression's been bad.
00:53:58I tried to help you. Doctors. Therapy.
00:54:01But you keep seeing things that aren't there.
00:54:03Don't come any closer. It's you.
00:54:05You ruined my life. I want a divorce.
00:54:07Exactly. Ever since she showed up,
00:54:09this family's been torn apart.
00:54:11How dare you still stand there?
00:54:13You're right. I was wrong.
00:54:15I shouldn't have talked about divorce.
00:54:17I won't ever bring it up again.
00:54:18How could someone like me control a man like him?
00:54:21I only wanted to help my husband.
00:54:23Mrs. Cross, your husband's extremely unstable.
00:54:26If you approach, do it slowly.
00:54:27I understand. Let me talk to him.
00:54:30Too many people make him nervous.
00:54:39Nice performance. I saw you call the press.
00:54:42Stay back.
00:54:43Using Kate as a shield?
00:54:44Aren't you afraid her ghost's right behind you, ready to push?
00:54:47You... you...
00:54:57Help! Please! Don't let go!
00:54:59Funny. You didn't sound like this before.
00:55:02No! I don't want to die! Please! I'm begging you!
00:55:04Now you're scared?
00:55:05Where was this skier when you were hurting your wife?
00:55:08Your child?
00:55:14I'll kill you, bitch!
00:55:16You choose Ava in court, and this is what happens to her.
00:55:20Like your mom.
00:55:21Mom, no!
00:55:22Did she beg like this? When you pushed her?
00:55:24Tell me the truth. Did you kill her?
00:55:25It was an accident. I didn't mean to. Just pull me up!
00:55:27Still lying at the edge of death.
00:55:29I gave you every chance to be honest.
00:55:30Since you love playing the victim, I'll stay for the final act.
00:55:33Three, two, one.
00:55:36No!
00:55:46I... I'm alive?
00:55:50Relax.
00:55:51Fire department had a mattress ready.
00:55:53You're far too valuable to die.
00:55:56Please.
00:55:57Let me go.
00:55:59I'll do anything.
00:56:00Two choices.
00:56:02One, you confess.
00:56:04Publicly.
00:56:05Admit the abuse. Admit what you did to Kate.
00:56:08I hand over the evidence. Maybe you get some mercy.
00:56:11And...
00:56:11the second?
00:56:14You stay with me.
00:56:16And every second of your life feels like that fall.
00:56:20A living hell.
00:56:22I'll confess.
00:56:24Give me a few days.
00:56:25I'll arrange the press conference.
00:56:28Good boy.
00:56:29Send me the time and place.
00:56:41Activate the final plan.
00:56:49Now, break into her computer and cloud every recorder, every photo, every journal.
00:56:56Erase it.
00:56:57Completely.
00:56:58Punching through the firewall now.
00:57:00Relax, Mr. Cross.
00:57:02If it's digital, it can be wiped.
00:57:12We're in.
00:57:13Admin access confirmed.
00:57:15Do it.
00:57:16Make it disappear.
00:57:17Forever.
00:57:31Ava.
00:57:33You thought you had me?
00:57:37You think you won?
00:57:39The evidence is gone.
00:57:41You'll never touch me.
00:57:43I'll never see a prison cell.
00:57:51That was your final move, Ethan.
00:57:56The higher you climb, the harder you fall.
00:57:59I'll bring you a real gift at that press conference.
00:58:03Billionaire Ethan Cross announces the completion of the Cross Children's Welfare Center next month.
00:58:08This orphanage is my way of giving back.
00:58:11Every child who's lost their parents deserves a warm home.
00:58:16Those squatters still won't budge.
00:58:17We're running out of time.
00:58:18Then make life uncomfortable for them.
00:58:19Police, inspections, whatever it takes.
00:58:21If not, pay someone to handle it.
00:58:32You two, drink some water.
00:58:35Thanks.
00:58:36We're in the middle of something.
00:58:38You don't need to be here.
00:58:39A warm home?
00:58:40People like you should be building houses in hell, Ethan.
00:58:48Please don't tear it down.
00:58:50The children have nowhere to go.
00:58:52No!
00:58:54My grandson is sick.
00:58:56Please have mercy.
00:58:58Have mercy.
00:59:00Go to hell.
00:59:01Cross wants this land.
00:59:07I told you to move.
00:59:24You feed on an old woman and call yourself a man?
00:59:28Who the hell is this psycho?
00:59:30Get her!
00:59:37Get her!
00:59:46Get her!
00:59:49Get her!
00:59:53Get her!
01:00:01Oh, no!
01:00:02Oh, no!
01:00:03Get her!
01:00:25Ma'am, thank you.
01:00:27Ethan Cross wants this land.
01:00:30He sends people every day.
01:00:31Threats, intimidation.
01:00:34People have died here.
01:00:35Died?
01:00:36Yes.
01:00:37He wouldn't let us call the police.
01:00:39Everything got buried.
01:00:41Last month, two workers raised safety issues.
01:00:43Then they vanished.
01:00:47Where are they?
01:00:48I... I don't know!
01:00:50You've got three seconds.
01:00:57Two months ago, crane collapsed.
01:00:59Two worker died.
01:01:00Mr. Cross didn't want it hurting the IPO.
01:01:03He made us bury them.
01:01:04Right under there.
01:01:06Ethan Cross gave that order himself?
01:01:09Yes!
01:01:09He paid us!
01:01:10They're still down there!
01:01:14Press conference in two days.
01:01:16Will you testify?
01:01:21We will!
01:01:22The truth has to come out!
01:01:26Building heaven on top of a graveyard, Ethan?
01:01:29Not happening.
01:01:31I forgave her.
01:01:32She only got worse.
01:01:36I forgave her.
01:01:37I forgave her.
01:01:37She only got worse.
01:01:42Press is ready.
01:01:43But something happened at the site.
01:01:46What now?
01:01:55Ava!
01:01:56It's always her!
01:02:02If she wants to play the hero, make her a dead one.
01:02:13I never wanted my private life exposed.
01:02:17But lies are hurting Cross Group.
01:02:19So today, I tell the truth.
01:02:24Mr. Cross, Ava Cross threatened you? Is she violent?
01:02:28If you haven't lived it, you don't know that fear.
01:02:33I forgave her.
01:02:35She only got worse.
01:02:51Cut my brakes?
01:02:52Ethan, that's it?
01:03:06Fine. Let's do this.
01:03:29Some people think power means fear.
01:03:32They've never met me.
01:03:38She fights like a pro.
01:03:41I tried to protect my family, but patience only made her worse.
01:03:46A role model CEO abused like this?
01:03:49She looks beautiful but vicious.
01:03:52For my daughter, I have no choice.
01:03:56I have to expose her.
01:04:07I gave her everything.
01:04:10She gave me pain and betrayal.
01:04:32You're Ava Cross?
01:04:33A woman like you shouldn't be a wife or a mother.
01:04:35What?
01:04:46Did your wife spend your money on other men?
01:04:50Yes, she did.
01:04:52How can his wife be like this?
01:04:55That's just how she is.
01:04:55Wild.
01:04:56Reckless.
01:04:57Never listens.
01:04:58I tried to keep her in line.
01:05:02Ethan, I'll give you an extra.
01:05:06Mr. Cross, if she's this dangerous, why didn't you call the police sooner?
01:05:13Because I loved her.
01:05:24Ethan, you're boring me.
01:05:32Ava Cross, did you abuse your husband?
01:05:36Mr. Cross accuses you of violence and infidelity.
01:05:39What do you say?
01:05:40Ava, last chance.
01:05:44Admit it.
01:05:45I'll tell the truth.
01:05:47I did hit him.
01:05:56She just admitted it?
01:05:58Is she crazy?
01:05:59Poor Ethan.
01:06:00How did he survive this time?
01:06:04So you're admitting it?
01:06:05You abused your husband?
01:06:08I hit a monster.
01:06:10That's not abuse.
01:06:15You hear that?
01:06:17This is who she really is.
01:06:24How can someone this unstable fight for custody? Planning to raise another abuser?
01:06:28Ava, get help. I won't call the police. Just let Lily go. She's nine. She can't survive you.
01:06:35Get out of here, you sick domestic abuser! Mr. Cross is way too kind, still defending her after everything!
01:06:41You've worn that victim mask so long you actually believe it.
01:06:43The violence is real. The footage is real. What gives you the right to judge anyone?
01:06:47You keep calling me violent? Calling me unstable? Did any of you ask the one person who knows me best?
01:06:56Stop! Mommy didn't hurt anyone!
01:07:03Lily, you can speak now.
01:07:06Mommy's good. Daddy's bad. He tried to hit me. He killed my puppy. He said if I didn't listen, he'd
01:07:11bury me too, like my real mommy.
01:07:14Lily, sweetheart, that's not true! She told you to say that! Ava, how dare you! Get her away from her!
01:07:20Touch her, you lose your hands.
01:07:24It's okay. You're safe now.
01:07:27You see this? She's threatening me! Kidnapping my daughter! I want full custody! She belongs in prison!
01:07:34You want custody? Kate trusted you once. Look where that got her.
01:07:39Get this lunaturk out!
01:07:41You like evidence? I've got plenty. You really think you erased everything?
01:07:47That screen behind you, that's your evidence.
01:07:50No, that's your illusion.
01:08:09You're not just an abuser, Ethan. You're a murderer.
01:08:12You sick bastard! You should've won an Oscar!
01:08:16He actually laughed while hitting her. It's so horrifying.
01:08:20This is slander!
01:08:22What the hell is happening?
01:08:23I-I don't know. We're locked out. We can't stop it.
01:08:26Cut the power, now!
01:08:29Ladies and gentlemen, we've been hacked.
01:08:33I swear on my name, it's a deepfake. All of it.
01:08:39Is this fake too, Ethan? Your own voice?
01:08:49Ethan, what will it take for you to let me go?
01:08:52Unless you die.
01:08:59I-I wake up afraid every day. For Lily, I endure it.
01:09:04If I disappear, it won't be an accident.
01:09:08It'll be him.
01:09:10This is the last page of Kate's diary.
01:09:12She wrote everything down. She knew exactly what he was going to do.
01:09:16That piece of trash was a CEO?
01:09:20Crossgroup should burn to the ground.
01:09:23A dead woman's diary proves nothing!
01:09:25This defamation!
01:09:27With evidence isn't enough, how about witnesses?
01:09:44Still denying it?
01:09:46Let them speak.
01:09:49You're safe.
01:09:51I can testify.
01:09:55He's a monster.
01:09:57Every time he lost control, he hit me.
01:10:01He poured boiling coffee on me.
01:10:03He forced us out of our homes to steal our land.
01:10:09Workers died on his site.
01:10:11He buried them under the foundation.
01:10:14Ethan Cross, you're a parasite!
01:10:17You're all lying! She paid you!
01:10:20Then explain this.
01:10:26We're recording.
01:10:27Forever.
01:10:35If you're innocent, why hire hackers to break into my cloud?
01:10:39You thought you erased everything.
01:10:41You recorded your own confession.
01:10:43It's fake!
01:10:44You think you can destroy me?
01:10:46Yeah, you are sick!
01:10:56No!
01:11:02The world sees you now, Ethan.
01:11:05Take a bow.
01:11:07Justice! Justice! Justice!
01:11:15Violence is the last resort.
01:11:18But when it's the only choice, self-defense means you hit hard enough that they never get the chance to
01:11:24hurt you again.
01:11:30That's it for today's class. Tomorrow's a day off. I'll be in court.
01:11:35You've got this. We're with you.
01:11:39In the matter of Ava Cross versus Ethan Cross, the court has reviewed the evidence.
01:11:45Mr. Cross, rulings involving a child are never taken lightly, which is exactly why this court has reached its decision.
01:11:55The court finds it unsafe to place the child in your custody. The marriage is dissolved. Full custody of Lily
01:12:01Cross is awarded to Ava Cross. Mr. Cross, your parental rights are terminated effective immediately. No contact with the child.
01:12:08No, no! Lily! I'm your father!
01:12:14Sir, stand down. Stand down! She turned you against me! This is a setup!
01:12:21You did this.
01:12:25I love you, Mommy. We're free now.
01:12:28I told you we would be.
01:12:31Ethan Cross now faces a federal probe.
01:12:34His company has lost nearly 90% of its value after allegations of abuse, homicide, and fraud.
01:12:44Mrs. Ava, you just took down one of the most powerful men in the city. How does it feel?
01:12:50Is justice enough after everything you survived?
01:12:54To anyone living in fear, this isn't a family matter. It's a crime.
01:12:59How does it make you untouchable?
01:13:03And if you're strong enough to speak up, justice will meet you halfway.
01:13:18You think someone's coming? You're mine.
01:13:21Actually, she's with me.
01:13:33Who the hell are you?
01:13:36Hunt men like you. Congrats. You made the list.
01:13:55That one's for every woman you hurt.
01:14:00Target down. Anyone else on the line?
01:14:02One more priority call. Luxury apartment. Old district.
01:14:06Neighborhood screaming. Guy just got out. Violent record.
01:14:09Good.
01:14:09David. He's getting bored.
01:14:11Be careful, okay? Movie night.
01:14:13Don't be late.
01:14:18Wouldn't miss it.
01:14:34Ethan, please. We just got married. How can you do this?
01:14:41I'm teaching you your place. You serve me. You obey me.
01:14:46Don't come near me. I want a divorce.
01:14:57You think you can leave? Try it.
01:15:03What did I tell you? Never say divorce. Define it.
01:15:09Long time ago.
01:15:11Ava.
01:15:17Prison taught you nothing. That's fine.
01:15:21Today's your final lesson.
