00:04Hey, it's me. How much is left in the joint account?
00:06Left? There's nothing left. I needed things, Ethan.
00:08I put eight grand in there last month. My mom's still in the ICU.
00:11That's my money too.
00:11You want to talk about money? Sign the papers first.
00:18Oh, the delivery boy. Perfect timing.
00:29Leave the food and get out.
00:39Hello?
00:39Mr. Reed, if the balance isn't settled by tomorrow morning, your mother will be discharged from the ICU.
01:05That old man. He's dying. Tonight.
01:09Sir, please lie down. You have a concussion.
01:15It's real.
01:19First number, how long they've lived. Second, how long they've got.
01:24Blue-green is safe. Yellow means trouble. Red means...
01:29Almost out of time.
01:38It upgraded. I can see objects now. Age. Origin. Value.
01:46How much for this?
01:49That piece of junk? 30 bucks. You want a bag?
01:59Where did you get this?
02:01A pawn shop on 5th Street.
02:02Ming Dynasty. Shinden period. Imperial Yade. Conservatively, 180,000.
02:16You can't leave. Please, don't get in that car.
02:19Do I know you?
02:25Miss Vant.
02:27A car bomb. Same model. Same route.
02:30If we'd left three minutes earlier, that goal is you.
02:35The bomb was on your original route.
02:37Planted under a parked car at the 6th Street intersection.
02:39If that man hadn't grabbed you three minutes, he bought me three minutes.
02:43Find him.
02:45I'm donating 500 grand to this hospital. I need this bed.
02:48Move the old woman out.
02:49Of course, Mr. Sterling. Right away.
02:51That's my mother.
02:52Then pay the bill.
02:53Oh, wait. You can't.
02:54Sign the divorce papers, Ethan. I'll give you three days.
02:57Security!
02:58Enough.
03:01The delivery boy get this kind of money.
03:03My mother stays. Nobody touches her bed.
03:05This isn't over.
03:14It's you.
03:15You saved my life. I owe you.
03:18Name your price.
03:20No price.
03:23Your mother?
03:24Being physician for this patient effective now.
03:26Vance family medical team takes over.
03:27All expenses go through my account.
03:29Vance Parma is this hospital's largest donor.
03:31That man won't bother your mother again.
03:33Why?
03:33Because I pay my debts.
03:35When your mother is stable, call me. I have a proposition.
03:38What does she want from me?
03:41Vance family specialists have taken over.
03:43Best equipment. Best meds.
03:45Don't worry about the cost.
03:46I told you. No need. I'll pay you back.
03:49You can't afford to.
03:52I need a husband.
03:55What?
03:55My grandfather's 80th birthday is next week.
03:57The Vance family is fighting over control.
03:58My uncle Douglas wants his son Marcus to take over.
04:00I'm CEO, but I'm a woman.
04:02They think once I marry, they can control me.
04:04So you need a shield?
04:04Contract marriage.
04:05You protect my position.
04:06I protect your mother.
04:07Fair trade.
04:08How long?
04:09Get through the birthday first.
04:10We'll figure out the rest later.
04:11Who the hell are you?
04:12His wife.
04:14That's impossible!
04:15We haven't even divorced yet!
04:17She wants a divorce?
04:19Perfect.
04:20What are her terms?
04:22Three million.
04:23Emotional damages.
04:25Five million on that card.
04:26Take it.
04:26Sign.
04:27Disappear.
04:37First, stand next to me.
04:39Second, don't embarrass me.
04:40We need a birthday gift from my grandfather.
04:42Something impressive.
04:43I'll handle the gift.
04:45You?
04:45Trust me once.
04:53How about this one?
04:59Fake.
05:001987 reproduction.
05:08This one.
05:10You sure?
05:11Trust me.
05:13My grandfather is the patriarch.
05:15Uncle Douglas controls the first branch.
05:16His son, Marcus, has been gunning for my seat.
05:18The second uncle runs the second branch and a fence sitter.
05:20Tonight, everyone will be watching me.
05:22How will they come at you?
05:23Through you.
05:23They'll tear you apart to prove I have bad judgment.
05:25Then I better not let you down.
05:28Victoria, is this your new charity project?
05:32Somebody help!
05:33He can't breathe!
05:34The obstruction is too deep.
05:36We don't have the equipment.
05:37He needs a hospital.
05:38There's nothing we can do here.
05:40Eight years old.
05:41And eight is his limit.
05:42He's dying.
05:43I can save him.
05:45A delivery boy playing doctor?
05:47This is gonna be good.
06:03Thank you, thank you.
06:04What's your name?
06:06He's fine now.
06:08Take him to a hospital for a full checkup.
06:09It's alright, it's alright.
06:10I already called for help.
06:14Inside first.
06:15We'll deal with it later.
06:19Victoria, who is this?
06:21My husband.
06:25One million.
06:26Take it and leave.
06:27You don't belong here.
06:28A delivery boy at the Vance family table?
06:30Even the servants dress better than him.
06:33What was Victoria thinking, bringing someone like him?
06:35I heard he doesn't even own a car.
06:37Took a cab here.
06:41You think one million is enough to get rid of me?
06:46Edgar Wu.
06:47Antique Association Chairman.
06:48Southern Province Medical Association President.
06:50The entire region's pharma industry runs through him.
06:53Marcus!
06:53I heard you saved my grandson's life.
06:55The Wu family owes you big.
06:56It was nothing, Mr. Wu.
06:57I just happened to be there and did what I could.
06:59Don't.
07:00Not now.
07:01He's lying.
07:02I know.
07:04Let him dig his own grave.
07:05Old Vance, your grandson is impressive.
07:07With a young man like this, the Vance family's future is secure.
07:10Father Marcus has been doing excellent work at the company too.
07:12Victoria's a girl after all.
07:14She'll marry eventually.
07:15Uncle Douglas, let's not discuss business at grandfather's birthday.
07:28Dad, it wasn't the young man in the suit.
07:30Someone else saved him, wearing a jacket that didn't quite fit younger.
07:33His name is Ethan.
07:34He pushed all the doctors away and saved Xiao Dong with his bare hands.
07:38The New Year.
07:41The New Year.
07:45The New Year.
07:47The New Year.
07:48The New Year.
07:48Before the gifts, I have something to say.
07:53Mr. Woo, why did you hit me?
07:54You did not save my grandson.
07:56You stole another man's credit and wore it like a crown.
08:00The man who saved my grandson is him, Ethan.
08:10The gifts, now.
08:13A Rembrandt drawing from the 1640s, valued at $800,000.
08:18A late 19th century repredation from an Amsterdam workshop.
08:21The paper dating is completely wrong, worth about 300 framing costs.
08:26Burmese Imperial Jade, $200,000.
08:28Russian Nephlet, maybe $10,000 on a good day.
08:40A leftover Easter egg?
08:45This is Fabrice, from the workshop itself.
08:48Tsar Alexander III era, hand-painted enamel.
08:50The Imperial private collection.
08:51The Imperial eagle and workshop hallmark on the base.
08:53Where did you find this?
08:54An antique shop on 5th Street, $1,200.
08:57The owner thought it was a souvenir.
08:59The last time a compamperable piece appeared at auction, it sold for $3.2 million.
09:12Since you have such extraordinary eyes, take a look at this for me.
09:20I've had this for 15 years, paid $3.5 million.
09:23Every apprizer says it's authentic.
09:25But something has always felt off.
09:28A fake.
09:292008 reproduction.
09:30The flaw isn't on the surface.
09:33What are you doing?
09:34That's worth over $3 million.
