Short filmTranscript
00:00:04I've been given a second chance, waking up on the eve of my wedding to Dante.
00:00:09While I was asleep, his assistant, Vera, took it upon herself to ink the word bitch across my face.
00:00:19Don't you think the label fits you perfectly?
00:00:23Oh, is Dorothy getting upset?
00:00:25It was just a joke, Dorothy. Don't start a scene.
00:00:30In my previous life, I would have pulled a Glock, pressed it to her skull, and screamed for a divorce.
00:00:37Not this time, because this time, I'm already dying.
00:00:41In my previous life, after I snapped and cut ties with Dante, the aftermath was a living nightmare.
00:00:48He refused to sign the papers, clawed back every asset I owned, and left me with nothing but the clothes
00:00:55on my back.
00:00:56The whites have put a price on your head.
00:01:00No one in New York will touch your case.
00:01:02If you want to keep your life, you need to get out of the city.
00:01:07Now.
00:01:10To make matters worse, no sooner had I fled New York, than a free clinic diagnosed me with late-stage
00:01:17Adam Asinoda.
00:01:18Without immediate intervention, you're looking at six months, at best.
00:01:26Treatment?
00:01:28I didn't even have enough to buy a loaf of bread for tomorrow.
00:01:32At my absolute breaking point, I swallowed what was left of my pride, and crawled back to Dante's estate, on
00:01:39Long Island.
00:01:40The master says he won't see you.
00:01:43Did you explain the situation?
00:01:45Did you tell him I'm sick?
00:01:46The word from inside is, if you're going to die, don't do it in front of the gates.
00:01:52It's bad for business.
00:01:55Ten years of love, and I never imagined he could be this heartless.
00:02:00I turned to walk away, and that's when I heard Vera's voice.
00:02:06Dante, the obstacle is finally gone.
00:02:10Now we can be together forever.
00:02:12The last image burned into my eyes, before I died, was the two of them, kissing in the very rose
00:02:18garden I had spent years nurturing with my own hands.
00:02:25So this time around, screw dignity.
00:02:28Survival is the only thing that matters.
00:02:30Dorothy, we're postponing the wedding.
00:02:33Vera's dog just passed away.
00:02:36Don't you think it's a bit cruel to celebrate a marriage while she's in mourning?
00:02:40We've been legally married for five years, yet the ceremony has been pushed back countless times.
00:02:46Last time, it was because Vera got a zit, and didn't want to look bad.
00:02:52This time, it's because of a dog.
00:02:54You're right.
00:02:58Wait.
00:03:06Wait.
00:03:07Vera is young and impulsive.
00:03:09She didn't mean anything by it.
00:03:12Her father was a loyalist to mine.
00:03:15She's like a sister to me.
00:03:17But you, you are my wife.
00:03:21There's a difference.
00:03:22The same old speech from my previous life.
00:03:25Word for word.
00:03:27But now, it doesn't even sting.
00:03:30I understand.
00:03:31Dorothy, what's the game this time?
00:03:35I've told you a thousand times.
00:03:38Vera's father died for this family, and she is essential for the Victoria negotiations.
00:03:44Why can't you just get that through your head?
00:03:46Why must you be so paranoid?
00:03:51No, I'm being serious.
00:03:53I'm not angry.
00:03:54Go on back.
00:03:56Vera and the others are waiting for you.
00:03:58I caught a flicker of bewilderment in his eyes.
00:04:01He clearly didn't expect me to be this...
00:04:03composed.
00:04:04Dorothy.
00:04:05I thought I heard someone call my name.
00:04:07I didn't bother to look back.
00:04:09My family needs you.
00:04:11Correct.
00:04:13A full-spectrum cancer screening.
00:04:15As soon as humanly possible.
00:04:17At least for now, I'm still Mrs. White.
00:04:20I have an Amex black card with no limit.
00:04:23Plenty of cash.
00:04:24And, for the moment, time.
00:04:28Vera wants you in the garden.
00:04:30Move it.
00:04:30Don't keep her waiting.
00:04:32That's my standing in the White Helmhold.
00:04:34Lady of the Manor on paper.
00:04:36But in reality, even the help thinks they can order me around.
00:04:47Do you like it?
00:04:48I mentioned to Dante that I'd love to try on a wedding dress, and he just...
00:04:52handed me yours.
00:04:54It's not bad.
00:04:56Although, the waistline looks like it needs some serious taking in.
00:05:00You bitch!
00:05:00Is that supposed to be a jab?
00:05:02Who do you think you are?
00:05:03The actual mistress of this house?
00:05:06I'm the one on Dante's arm at every gala.
00:05:08Out there, I'm the one they call Mrs. White.
00:05:11Nobody even knows you exist.
00:05:13Dante never took me public.
00:05:16Driven by resentment, I once snuck into a party just to watch.
00:05:20Everyone was cheering for him and Vera.
00:05:23Egging them on to kiss.
00:05:24Dante didn't say a single word to correct them.
00:05:27I'm sick of that pathetic look on your face.
00:05:30Grab her!
00:05:30Hold her down!
00:05:40If it weren't for you, Dante and I would have been official years ago.
00:05:45You're just a piece of used up trash!
00:05:47A total bitch!
00:05:53What the hell is going on here?
00:05:59Dante!
00:06:00Dorothy saw me in the dress and just lost it!
00:06:03She attacked me!
00:06:04Look at my face!
00:06:05How am I supposed to meet Mr. Vidorio tonight looking like this?
00:06:10I told you Dorothy, tonight's deal is vital to the organization.
00:06:14The same routine.
00:06:16No matter how absurd Villa's lies are, Dante will always take her side.
00:06:20What's so funny?
00:06:22As the matriarch of the White family, you're petty, blinded by jealousy, and clearly unrepent.
00:06:26Fine, let's give you something to remember.
00:06:35Dorothy, have you learned your lesson yet?
00:06:38The crushing weight of the humiliation and physical pain was too much.
00:06:43Everything went black.
00:06:44And the world gave out beneath me.
00:06:52The crushing weight of the humiliation and physical pain was too much.
00:06:58Everything went black.
00:06:59And the world gave out beneath me.
00:07:05I dreamt about the way we used to be.
00:07:10Back then, we were just kids in Red Hook, Brooklyn.
00:07:12A neighborhood teeming with dock workers and Italian immigrants.
00:07:16My family lived on 3rd Avenue.
00:07:18And Dante's house was right across the street.
00:07:21You held back in the ring today?
00:07:23The Whites have no use for a weeking.
00:07:25You need to crush them, cripple them.
00:07:27Only then will your father finally acknowledge you.
00:07:30Otherwise, you'll never be more than a bastard hiding in the shadows.
00:07:34Did your mother hurt you again?
00:07:36Old Mr. White was a womanizer with countless illegitimate children.
00:07:40And Dante was one of them.
00:07:41His mother was obsessed with becoming Mrs. White.
00:07:44So she pinned all her hopes on Dante.
00:07:46The training she put him through was basically torture.
00:07:49I often heard the crack of whips gunshots and a woman's hysterical screams and sobs.
00:07:54I felt sorry for him.
00:07:56Every time I got my hands on some candy, I might secretly slip him a piece.
00:08:03Ugh!
00:08:06I don't care for sweets.
00:08:08Then don't eat them.
00:08:09But Dante, you really should speak up more.
00:08:12You have a beautiful voice.
00:08:17Before long, it became our ritual.
00:08:20That solitary boy started waiting for me.
00:08:28I did some digging.
00:08:29It's a safe area, and it's close to where I'll be stationed.
00:08:33Your grades might not get you into the degree program yet.
00:08:36But they have a summer foundation course.
00:08:38I'll take care of the tuition.
00:08:41I never had the heart to tell him that my parents, who ran a gallery, had already mapped out my
00:08:47entire future.
00:08:48I ditched my acceptance letter and followed him to Rhode Island.
00:08:52Even when my father disowned me for it, I didn't regret a thing.
00:08:56Dante eventually earned his stripes and was named the White Air.
00:08:59He became ruthless, efficient, a total stranger to the world.
00:09:02But with me, he was still that same shy boy.
00:09:13Who were they?
00:09:15Why can't I be the only one in your world?
00:09:18Can't you just look at me?
00:09:21I love you, Dorothy.
00:09:22I've loved you since we were kids.
00:09:24I knew exactly who he was.
00:09:26The boy who purged traders at 16 and ran the East Coast Arms trade at 18.
00:09:31I thought a gulf of blood and shadows stood between us.
00:09:33But then he said he loved me.
00:09:35And in that moment, I threw caution to the wind and held him back.
00:09:41Why hasn't she woken up yet?
00:09:42And she's burning up.
00:09:43Move!
00:09:44Get the private doctor on the phone.
00:09:47Victor.
00:09:48Dorothy is sick.
00:09:49Get down to the man in this instance.
00:09:52What do you mean she scheduled tests?
00:09:54What kind of tests?
00:10:00Victor.
00:10:01Dorothy is sick.
00:10:02Get down to the man in this instance.
00:10:04What do you mean she scheduled tests?
00:10:06What kind of tests?
00:10:17Dante.
00:10:18Quiet.
00:10:23I'm right here.
00:10:26What are you doing here?
00:10:28At this hour, shouldn't you be with Vera?
00:10:32The deal fell through.
00:10:33I can't have the word getting out that the lady of the white family is a jealous mess
00:10:37who starts catfights over nothing.
00:10:40Tomorrow, you're going to apologize to Vera.
00:10:43She branded my face with a marker and beat me until I was unrecognizable.
00:10:47And I'm the one who has to apologize to the culprit?
00:10:49I wanted to laugh, but the irony was too heavy for my lungs.
00:10:53Vera said this ink washes right off.
00:10:56Are you keeping it there on purpose just to milk my sympathy?
00:11:02Why isn't it coming off?
00:11:04Never mind.
00:11:04We're visiting a man tomorrow afternoon.
00:11:07Be ready by 2.
00:11:09I can't make it.
00:11:12Have you had enough yet?
00:11:14I've told you.
00:11:15There is nothing between me and Vera.
00:11:17Why are you so obsessed with this?
00:11:19Dante has always been a man of few words.
00:11:22This is the first time he's ever felt the need to explain himself over and over.
00:11:26Was he trying to convince me or was he trying to convince himself?
00:11:31I'm unwell and I have a doctor's appointment.
00:11:36Besides, your father never liked me anyway.
00:11:39Said I was too artistic for this life.
00:11:42He has a heart condition.
00:11:43Why risk raising his blood pressure?
00:11:45Take Vera instead.
00:11:47She's more your speed.
00:11:50Fine.
00:11:51Keep nursing your little tantrum.
00:11:53Just don't come crying to me when the fallout hits.
00:11:58See?
00:12:00That's the bitter divide between loved and being tolerated.
00:12:04The Dante of the past would panic if I so much as frowned.
00:12:07Begging to know what he'd done wrong.
00:12:10But this rot didn't set in overnight.
00:12:13By our third year together, he had officially ascended as the godfather of the white family.
00:12:18Wipe out the remaining minor families within three days.
00:12:22I want zero loose ends.
00:12:24Yes, godfather.
00:12:30My parents' car exploded in a supposed accident.
00:12:34Both were killed instantly.
00:12:37The police ruled it a mechanical failure.
00:12:39But I knew better than to believe in coincidences in this city.
00:12:43They were just coming to see my exhibition.
00:12:46They were murdered because it wouldn't help those animals launder their blood money.
00:12:52I'm sorry.
00:12:54It's my fault I couldn't protect them.
00:12:56From this moment on, I swear to spend the rest of my life making it up to you.
00:13:00I will never let another soul hurt you again.
00:13:04Dante defied his father's direct orders just to marry me.
00:13:09Mrs. White, this is your third misparriage.
00:13:11In your current condition, carrying a child to term is simply not viable.
00:13:16I strongly suggest you look into surrogacy or adoption.
00:13:21It's okay, Dorothy.
00:13:23Children or not, it doesn't change anything.
00:13:25I only care about you being whole.
00:13:28Her poverty is the least of her sins.
00:13:31Now she's a hen that can't even lay eggs.
00:13:34This family needs an heir, Dante.
00:13:36I'm not going to replace her.
00:13:39After that, my health spiraled.
00:13:42Insomnia, anxiety.
00:13:44The nights became endless.
00:13:46Depression swallowed me like a rising tide.
00:13:49And in my darkest hour, Vera appeared.
00:13:53Godfather.
00:13:54Here is the latest market analysis on the arms trade.
00:13:57She could talk strategy and business.
00:14:00Walking shoulder to shoulder with him through the blood and the fire.
00:14:04Impressive work.
00:14:05And me, I was reduced to asking about his dinner or matching his ties.
00:14:10He began to see me as hollow.
00:14:12A relic that couldn't keep up.
00:14:14I knew then, there was no going back.
00:14:22He began to see me as hollow.
00:14:25A relic that couldn't keep up.
00:14:27I knew then, there was no going back.
00:14:30In my previous life,
00:14:32I was left without a safety net.
00:14:35Post-divorce, Dante froze in every single one of my accounts.
00:14:38Stripped of everything, I had to sell off my life piece by piece.
00:14:42Eventually, I found myself standing in a pawn shop.
00:14:46Holding my own wedding ring.
00:14:55Five grand.
00:14:57It's worth at least a hundred and fifty thousand.
00:15:01Market price is for the dreamers.
00:15:03Cash is for the desperate.
00:15:05You want the money or not?
00:15:06Even back then,
00:15:08when hunger and sickness had me at death's fore,
00:15:11I couldn't bring myself apart with that ring.
00:15:13I held on to it and went to find Dante,
00:15:17only to catch him and Vera locked in an embrace.
00:15:21What a pathetic joke.
00:15:23Ma'am, I'm afraid the results are concerning.
00:15:27It's pancreatic cancer.
00:15:28We need to perform a bone marrow biopsy immediately
00:15:31to confirm the extent of the lesions.
00:15:40The local amesthetic only numbs the surface.
00:15:43You're going to feel a significant amount of pressure and pain.
00:15:46I'll need you to hold as still as possible.
00:15:54The report will hit your phone in five hours.
00:15:57Once you're home, stay flat on your back.
00:15:59Do not irritate the wound.
00:16:02The pain alone could send you into shock.
00:16:06She's back!
00:16:13How dare you betray the family!
00:16:17My biopsy wound.
00:16:19I can feel it tearing open.
00:16:22What the hell are you talking about?
00:16:25The second you left,
00:16:27the family's purge list was leaked.
00:16:31You're the only one with access to Dante's study.
00:16:34If it wasn't you, then who?
00:16:36Give me a name!
00:16:38I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:16:43I looked the other way when you came for me personally.
00:16:46But selling our lives to the blacks?
00:16:48Just to spine us?
00:16:53That's a death sentence.
00:16:56Dante, you can't protect her this time.
00:16:59Dante, help me.
00:17:00You know I would never...
00:17:02Vera had the right idea after all.
00:17:04You're nothing but a bitch.
00:17:06And a bitch belongs exactly where she can be used.
00:17:13Vera had the right idea after all.
00:17:16You're nothing but a bitch.
00:17:17And a bitch belongs exactly where she can be used.
00:17:21It's strange.
00:17:22Mrs. White was so desperate for these results.
00:17:25But now that they're in, she's not picking up.
00:17:27Victor, how do you want to handle this?
00:17:29Mrs. White?
00:17:30You mean Dorothy?
00:17:31What was she in for?
00:17:33Cancer?
00:17:35This can't be right.
00:17:36I need to get to the white estate immediately.
00:17:45No!
00:17:46I never betrayed this family!
00:17:48Let me talk to Dante!
00:17:49Just let me see him!
00:17:50This is Dante's order.
00:18:03You have a gift.
00:18:04Honestless puts half the artists in the galleries to shame.
00:18:08Do you really think so?
00:18:10I was thinking of entering it into a competition.
00:18:13Absolutely.
00:18:14One day, I'm going to host the most lavish exhibition the world has ever seen for my star artist.
00:18:20These are the hands of a master.
00:18:21We have to keep them safe.
00:18:23The man who swore to protect me for a lifetime is the same one who shattered the hands I used
00:18:29to create.
00:18:31The pain is unbearable.
00:18:32I need the doctor.
00:18:35Everything is... fading?
00:18:38Sir, your own investigation cleared her.
00:18:40You know for a fact that Dorothy wasn't the mole.
00:18:44Vera is my most trusted lieutenant.
00:18:46She made a public accusation in front of the entire organization.
00:18:49I couldn't humiliate her by proving her wrong.
00:18:52Dorothy just had to take the fall for the sake of optics.
00:18:54To save Vera's reputation, he sacrificed my hands.
00:19:04I couldn't humiliate her by proving her wrong.
00:19:07Dorothy just had to take the fall for the sake of optics.
00:19:10To save Vera's reputation, he sacrificed my hands.
00:19:15I'll make it up to her later.
00:19:18Besides, given her status as my wife, the men know better than to push her too far.
00:19:24Vera played the part of the white matriarch for years and Dante never once correct her.
00:19:28In this house, I was less than a servant.
00:19:30He wasn't blind to the contempt and the mockery.
00:19:32He just didn't care anymore.
00:19:36Dante, how can you keep making excuses for a rat?
00:19:38Because of that leak, my family was nearly wiped out and the organization took a massive hit.
00:19:42You know what's at stake.
00:19:44Tell me you aren't actually still falling for her act?
00:19:47She had no motive to do this on purpose.
00:19:50No motive?
00:19:53What if she found out her parents died in my parents' place?
00:19:59Thank God we swapped those license plates.
00:20:01Otherwise, it would have been my parents blown to pieces by the Red Oaks instead of hers.
00:20:05Dante, I know you've been carrying that guilt.
00:20:07But you've compensated her plenty.
00:20:10Four years of luxury is more than enough payment for two dead gallery owners.
00:20:19What she said, is it true?
00:20:22You murdered my parents.
00:20:26Why are you...
00:20:28here?
00:20:29So what if it is?
00:20:31Stop looking at me like that.
00:20:32I'm telling you, some lives are just worth more than others.
00:20:35Your parents were nobodies.
00:20:37Dying for mines was the most useful thing they ever did.
00:20:39Calm down, Dorothy.
00:20:41Don't act like a lunator.
00:20:43How am I supposed to be calm?
00:20:45I loved you for half my life.
00:20:47And all this time, you were an accomplice to their murder.
00:20:50Dorothy, listen to me.
00:20:52I never wanted to hurt you.
00:20:54Go to hell, you bitch!
00:20:58I never wanted to hurt you.
00:21:00Go to hell, you bitch!
00:21:06Vera!
00:21:24Dante?
00:21:26Do you have any idea what Dorothy is?
00:21:29Why?
00:21:31The throbbing in my chest was a brutal reminder of reality.
00:21:34My husband of four years used me as a human shield,
00:21:38shoving me into the line of fire to save another woman.
00:21:41It's just a flesh wound.
00:21:43Who are you putting on this fragile act for?
00:21:45Hate to break it to you, but the boss isn't coming.
00:21:48Vera is traumatized, and he's busy playing hero by her bedside.
00:21:52I wasn't even surprised.
00:21:57I didn't realize the help in the White family had grown so insolent.
00:22:01Know your place.
00:22:05You're not out of the woods yet.
00:22:07That bullet missed your heart by a fraction of an inch.
00:22:09If I hadn't made it in time, Dante would be picking out your cospet right now.
00:22:14How did it come to this?
00:22:15I remember when he'd call me in a panic if you so much as scraped a knee.
00:22:19Now-
00:22:19That's a question you should be asking him.
00:22:22Does he even know about the diagnosis?
00:22:25Cancer isn't something you can just brush off.
00:22:28Are you sure you want to keep him in the dark?
00:22:30You performed the surgery.
00:22:31You must have seen the other marks on me.
00:22:33He's the one who put them there.
00:22:34I'm terrified of being tied to him any longer.
00:22:37Victor, for the sake of our old friendship, please, help me.
00:22:43What do you need me to do?
00:22:45Help me apply for medical assistance.
00:22:47I need a way to pay for treatment once the divorce goes through and I'm cut off from the White
00:22:51family assets.
00:22:52Dorothy, just how little faith do you have left in him?
00:22:55Do you really think he'd refuse to cover your medical bills?
00:22:57He dropped eight figures on a diamond for Vera just last month.
00:23:01I'm sorry.
00:23:02I didn't mean to throw that in your face.
00:23:05It's fine.
00:23:07I'm well aware.
00:23:09Every time Dante abandoned me for Vera, she made sure to rub it in with a smug text.
00:23:15Before the wedding, Dante and I were supposed to pick out our rings together.
00:23:18He never showed.
00:23:19I spent five hours calling him over and over.
00:23:22Until-
00:23:26Dante's with me.
00:23:27He just won the auction for the Heart of the Ocean.
00:23:29999 carats of pure devotion.
00:23:31He says it's for his one true first love.
00:23:33He never loved you, Dorothy.
00:23:35Don, you feel like a clown standing in the middle of something that was never yours.
00:23:38There's one more thing I need from you.
00:23:40I need you to draft a set of divorce papers.
00:23:43You're not thinking clearly.
00:23:51There's one more thing I need from you.
00:23:53I need you to draft a set of divorce papers.
00:24:01That's not the outfit you left in.
00:24:04You've showered and changed.
00:24:05Where the hell have you been?
00:24:07Chemotherapy, obviously.
00:24:09I was drenched in a cold from the pain so the nurse had to change me.
00:24:12It's pathetic.
00:24:13He crosses every line imaginable with Vera.
00:24:17Yet he has the audacity to play the suspicious husband with me.
00:24:23None of your business.
00:24:26None of my business?
00:24:28You are my wife.
00:24:30What right do you have to question me?
00:24:32You and Vera parade around like a couple at every gala.
00:24:35She flaunts my wedding dress and plays Mrs. White while you stand by and say nothing.
00:24:41You delayed our wedding for her, tortured me for her, and used me as her human shield.
00:24:46Is that your version of being innocent?
00:24:49It was for the business.
00:24:51Dante, do you actually believe your own lies?
00:24:54If there's a sure of the man I used to know left in you, then give me a divorce.
00:24:59Set yourself free.
00:25:01And for God's sake, let me go.
00:25:03You want a divorce?
00:25:05Unless there's someone else waiting for you.
00:25:07Why are you so desperate to leave?
00:25:08I've been too soft on you.
00:25:10I've spoiled you to the point where you've forgotten the price of defying me.
00:25:21Dante, what are you doing?
00:25:23You know perfectly well I could never betray you.
00:25:26Dorothy, still playing the victim?
00:25:28I gave explicit orders to the integration room to just put on a show.
00:25:32I didn't realize you were this desperate to go this far just to trick me.
00:25:36Dorothy, when did you become so manipulative?
00:25:39You have no right to judge me.
00:25:43Then let's see if I can't remind you exactly what my rights are.
00:25:55Then let's see if I can't remind you exactly what my rights are.
00:26:05I stood there, at the wreckage of my parents' car, watching my world collapse.
00:26:11For two years, Dante held my hand, guiding me through the trauma and the nightmares of twisted metal.
00:26:17I never imagined that one day, he would be the one behind the wheel, driving straight at me.
00:26:30Dante, stop!
00:26:32Please, don't do this to me!
00:26:34Isn't this what you're so terrified of?
00:26:36Fine, let me help you refresh your memory.
00:26:39I'll show you exactly how your parents looked in that wreck.
00:26:42Like two piles of mangled, unrecognizable flesh.
00:26:46You...
00:26:46Wait...
00:26:47Why do I smell gasoline?
00:26:50Die, you bitch.
00:27:14I'll be your knight, Dorothy.
00:27:16I swear, I'll never let another soul lay a finger on you.
00:27:23Everything started to fade.
00:27:26Through a haze of crimson, I saw Dante leap from his car and sprint towards me.
00:27:32But his face was a blur, a shadow retreating into a distance I could no longer reach.
00:27:38Dorothy!
00:27:49Dorothy!
00:27:50Dorothy!
00:27:52Dorothy, stay with me.
00:27:53Keep your eyes on me.
00:27:54I reinforced this car myself.
00:27:56It shouldn't have gone up like this.
00:27:57Don White, it's too dangerous.
00:27:59The frame could blow any second.
00:28:01You have to get back.
00:28:02Dante, stop!
00:28:03You're the head of this family.
00:28:05She's just some girl from the sticks.
00:28:06You can't risk your life for her.
00:28:11She is my wife.
00:28:20Get Victor out here.
00:28:22Now!
00:28:23In the final flickering moments of consciousness, I felt a familiar embrace.
00:28:27It was warm, reminding me of the safety he used to offer when we were young.
00:28:30But this warmth arrived far too late.
00:28:33And the cost was far too cheap.
00:28:38Dorothy, you're awake.
00:28:39Can you feel anything?
00:28:41Victor looked you over.
00:28:42He says you're out of danger, but you're badly hurt.
00:28:46Dorothy, please.
00:28:48Forgive me.
00:28:48I only did it because I couldn't stand the thought of you leaving me.
00:28:52Your hands?
00:28:53God, I'm so sorry.
00:28:55I never intended for them to go that far.
00:28:57Everyone in the interrogation room has been dealt with.
00:29:00I'll find the best specialists in the world.
00:29:02They'll heal.
00:29:03I promise they will.
00:29:05It's permanent damage.
00:29:06Some things don't mend.
00:29:08Just like a heart.
00:29:09Once it's gone, it never comes back.
00:29:11You're not thinking clearly right now.
00:29:13Did you bother to find out why the car exploded?
00:29:16Or who poured gasoline all over the scene?
00:29:19It was an accident.
00:29:21Dorothy.
00:29:21A freak occurrence.
00:29:23Vera was the one in charge of that car's maintenance.
00:29:27I know you've been through hell.
00:29:28But don't drag Vera into this.
00:29:30You're becoming obsessive, Dorothy.
00:29:32It's unhinged.
00:29:34Get out.
00:29:36Dorothy.
00:29:37I'm not letting you go.
00:29:38You just need time to calm down.
00:29:40Call me if you need anything.
00:29:41Victor left some paperwork.
00:29:43The final medical report from your checkup.
00:29:45It needs your signature.
00:29:46It's on the table.
00:29:50The medical assistance is approved.
00:29:52Finally, I can disappear.
00:30:01The medical assistance is approved.
00:30:04Finally, I can disappear.
00:30:08The next day, I packed what little I had left.
00:30:11A few basic changes of clothes.
00:30:14Nothing more.
00:30:15I didn't touch a single luxury item Dante had ever bought me.
00:30:19He felt guilty, I suppose.
00:30:21But not enough to care.
00:30:22He bought it with such indifference that he didn't even check the size.
00:30:27The band was far too wide.
00:30:29It was never meant for me.
00:30:31A ring was never the promise I was looking for.
00:30:33This marriage has mere drained the last of my love and every shred of hope I once held.
00:30:39From this moment on, Mrs. White is dead.
00:30:43There is only Dorothy, a woman who finally belongs to herself.
00:30:51Dante, why all the drinking?
00:30:53You're going to ruin yourself at this rate.
00:30:55It's her, isn't it?
00:30:58That bitch, Dorothy.
00:31:00I can't believe he's still moping over her after everything.
00:31:04Having the interrogation room crush her hands was far too mercy.
00:31:08Next time, I'll make sure she's erased for good.
00:31:12The interrogation room is your jurisdiction.
00:31:15Tell me, did you know they were going to shatter her hands?
00:31:21Dante, are you actually accusing me?
00:31:24Why on earth would I do that?
00:31:25Did Dorothy whisper something in your ear?
00:31:28Look, I know she's been through a lot.
00:31:30If making me the villain helps her cope or helps you calm down, then fine.
00:31:35I'll take the blame.
00:31:37Enough.
00:31:38Head out.
00:31:38Unless you have something useful to say.
00:31:41Dante, stop.
00:31:42If Dorothy isn't here to care for you, I am.
00:31:45I'm the only one who truly does.
00:31:48No matter what happens, I'm right here.
00:31:51Look at me.
00:32:02I'm right here.
00:32:04Look at me.
00:32:10Vera, you've overstepped.
00:32:12Get out.
00:32:14Dante, you know my feelings for you have always been...
00:32:18Miss Vera, this way, please.
00:32:22Godfather, stop.
00:32:23Your body can't take much more of this.
00:32:25Dorothy and I, it's like there's an ocean between us now.
00:32:29She used to be so fragile.
00:32:30She'd wait for me to comfort her over a tiny scratch.
00:32:34Now, after all this hell, she won't even give me the dignity of a grievance.
00:32:39She looks at me like I'm some stranger.
00:32:42And then she demands a divorce?
00:32:45Divorce?
00:32:46Not in this life.
00:32:48Never.
00:32:48Maybe she's just lashing out in the heat of the moment?
00:32:51Lashing out?
00:32:53What right does she have to be angry?
00:32:55She's become willful.
00:32:57Completely irrational.
00:32:58She doesn't have the slightest clue.
00:33:00Have you seen her lately?
00:33:01The staff says she hasn't set foot outside her room.
00:33:05Still playing the martyr?
00:33:07Fine.
00:33:08Let her be.
00:33:10It's not like she's actually going to starve herself to death.
00:33:15Chemo is agonizing.
00:33:17But in a strange way.
00:33:19The pain is a reminder.
00:33:20It means I'm still alive.
00:33:23Dorothy White, ready for billing.
00:33:27She's asleep.
00:33:28I'll just charge it to the house account then.
00:33:31The usual White family line of credit?
00:33:38A hospital bill, patient, Dorothy White, diagnosis, pancreatic cancer?
00:33:48A hospital bill, patient, Dorothy White, diagnosis, pancreatic cancer?
00:33:56This can't be real.
00:33:58How is that even possible?
00:34:01Godfather.
00:34:02I have the weekly ledgers and the syndicate contact list.
00:34:05You look pale.
00:34:07Did something happen?
00:34:09Has Dorothy left her room these past few days?
00:34:12She hasn't set foot outside all day.
00:34:14The trays the staff left are still sitting there, untouched.
00:34:17I assume she's still playing the martin.
00:34:22So it really was a scam text.
00:34:24Then why the hell am I so unsettled?
00:34:28Move the wedding preparations to the top of the agenda.
00:34:32We're holding it in the rose garden here at the estate.
00:34:35I want the most lavish ceremony possible.
00:34:38Send invites to every faction head and all the family elders.
00:34:44Godfather, a wedding?
00:34:46You've pushed the date back a dozen times already.
00:34:49Are you sure now is the time?
00:34:51Especially with Madam in her current state of mind.
00:34:55I'm afraid, between us, someone has to be the first to blinks.
00:34:59Someone has to bridge the gap.
00:35:01This wedding is happening, Quinn.
00:35:03I owe her this much.
00:35:05Understood, sir.
00:35:07I'll see to the arrangements immediately.
00:35:08I used my savings to rent a small apartment.
00:35:12It's modest, but for the first time in years, I feel safe.
00:35:21People these days really are cold-blooded.
00:35:23You're just going to leave a man to bleed out on the pavement?
00:35:26Let go.
00:35:27That's a gunshot wound on your shoulder.
00:35:29Judging by your suit, you've crossed the wrong kind of people.
00:35:32I have no intention of getting dragged into your underworld drama.
00:35:43There's hemostatic powder and bandages in there.
00:35:46Get yourself up.
00:35:48Dorothy.
00:35:49Still trying to hide that soft heart behind a wall of ice.
00:35:54So you actually staged a collapse just to catch a girl's attention, only to get rejected?
00:35:59If the streets ever found out the head of the black family was playing damsel in distress and failed,
00:36:04we'd never hear the end of it.
00:36:17What's so embarrassing about chasing my future wife?
00:36:21I told you to look into why she moved out of the white residence.
00:36:25Any updates?
00:36:26Boss.
00:36:27You'd better brace yourself.
00:36:28Those bastards in the white family.
00:36:31They're absolute monsters.
00:36:36Dante, I heard you're planning a wedding with Dorothy.
00:36:39That can't be true, can it?
00:36:43We'll have a date set very soon.
00:36:45Dante, didn't you say Dorothy was immature, willful, and obsessive?
00:36:50That she never understood you or supported your work?
00:36:54Why not postpone the wedding?
00:36:56You're in the middle of a power struggle with Vincent for the title of Cod of Godfather.
00:37:01If Dorothy becomes a liability...
00:37:03She is my wife, the matriarch of the white family.
00:37:07I should have given her a proper wedding a long time ago.
00:37:10It's my responsibility.
00:37:13So all you feel for Dorothy is an obligation?
00:37:16If you feel guilty, just give her some money.
00:37:18Why sacrifice your life for her?
00:37:21Besides, you already have me.
00:37:23What kind of nonsense are you talking?
00:37:25When I wanted a wedding dress, you gave me Dorothy's.
00:37:29When I wanted a diamond ring, you bought me the priceless heart of the ocean.
00:37:34Every time I felt even slightly slighted, you took my side and protected me.
00:37:40Dante, you've never treated us the same.
00:37:43Deep down, I'm the one you love.
00:37:45You're just too afraid to admit it, aren't you?
00:37:52My wife will only ever be Dorothy.
00:37:56Get any other ideas out of your head before it's too late.
00:38:00I overstepped.
00:38:01Get out.
00:38:06Did you get the shot?
00:38:09Nice work.
00:38:10Send it to the media.
00:38:12The family has been fed up with Dorothy for a long time.
00:38:15Once once, everyone thinks Dante and I are an item.
00:38:21He'll have to consider the eldest issues and opinions before he tries to marry that worn-out hag.
00:38:32He'll have to consider the eldest issues and opinions before he tries to marry that worn-out hag.
00:38:43Hey there, my lifesaver.
00:38:46Don't call me that.
00:38:48You saved my life.
00:38:49Walking you home and carrying your bags is the least I can do.
00:38:52If it wasn't for that medical kit yesterday, I'd be a goner by now.
00:38:57Come on, don't be shy.
00:38:59It's not like you've got anything worth stealing anyway.
00:39:01He's got a point.
00:39:03I'm on my deathbed anyway.
00:39:05What do I have to lose?
00:39:18What are you doing?
00:39:19I can take it from here.
00:39:20You should get going.
00:39:22The wound is fine.
00:39:23Don't worry about it.
00:39:24If I'm going to thank you for saving my life, I should at least show some real appreciation.
00:39:29Making you dinner isn't too much to ask, is it?
00:39:36A man who's a gentleman in public and a pro in the kitchen?
00:39:40Guys like Wei are hard to find.
00:39:41Consider yourself lucky today.
00:39:43Get over yourself.
00:39:45Just finish the food and get out of here.
00:39:48Dante White.
00:39:50Godfather of the White family.
00:39:52Caught an intimate moment with Mystery Woman.
00:39:54Wedding bells in the air.
00:39:58I was going to ask how you like your steak, but more importantly, are you okay?
00:40:02I'm fine.
00:40:04Medium well for the steak, please.
00:40:05Those people and their drama, they mean nothing to me anymore.
00:40:11We've got people scrubbing the news and photos as we're speaking.
00:40:14We're still tracking down who's behind this, so it might take a moment to clear everything.
00:40:19I don't care what it takes.
00:40:21Wipe every photo and article.
00:40:22I want every trace of this gone.
00:40:24Do I make myself clear?
00:40:26Yes, sir.
00:40:27I'll take care of it immediately.
00:40:30God knows how long I'll have to deal with her attitude this time.
00:40:33Dorothy was always the jealous kind.
00:40:35If she just apologizes for that whole divorce nonsense and admits she was wrong, I might give her another chance.
00:40:43After all, we've been together for ages.
00:40:52Dorothy was always the jealous kind.
00:40:54I might give her another chance.
00:40:56After all, we've been together for ages.
00:41:00Dorothy, are you here?
00:41:07Quinn, get in here.
00:41:09Godfather, what are your orders?
00:41:11Dorothy isn't here.
00:41:14This dust looks like it's been here for at least a week.
00:41:17How is this possible?
00:41:19The staff kept setting Madam was in her room.
00:41:21It wasn't my place to barge in and check, so I just assumed she was still in there sulthing.
00:41:26Solling, I told you to keep an eye on her.
00:41:29And this is the best you could do?
00:41:31How do you lose a whole person?
00:41:33What the hell is wrong with you?
00:41:34Don't just stand there.
00:41:35Get everyone on this.
00:41:37I want the city turned upside down.
00:41:39Find Dorithia and bring her back to me.
00:41:41Yes, sir.
00:41:42I'll get right on it.
00:41:46Godfather, it looks like Madam left this for you.
00:41:53Divorce?
00:41:54She's actually divorcing me?
00:41:56How does she even dare?
00:41:57What does Mr. Quinn want with us now?
00:42:00It's something about that Dorothy woman again.
00:42:03What a drag.
00:42:04Seriously.
00:42:05She clings to that title of Mistress of the White Family but can't do a damn thing right.
00:42:10Except piss off the Godfather.
00:42:12Who cares if she eats or where she sleeps?
00:42:14We used to serve her literal scraps and rotten food and she never said a word.
00:42:19What a loser.
00:42:21And she calls herself the Lady of the House.
00:42:23Everyone knows Vera and the Godfather are the real couple.
00:42:27She's only sticking around and taking this Vera's spot because she's a gold digger.
00:42:32Honestly, I'm glad she's gone.
00:42:34Saves us the trouble of dealing with her.
00:42:46Saves us the trouble of dealing with her.
00:42:52Godfather?
00:42:53I'm glad she's going to be on for the good.
00:42:54Handle them.
00:42:56Mercy, Godfather.
00:42:58Please, have mercy.
00:42:59We didn't mean it.
00:43:00We'll never open our mouths again.
00:43:01Please, just let us live.
00:43:03It was...
00:43:04It was Miss Vera.
00:43:05She made us do it.
00:43:06She ordered us to give Madam a hard time to serve her spoiled rotten food and force her to kneel.
00:43:10She said she was the future matriarch.
00:43:12She threatened to kill our families if we didn't obey.
00:43:17We had no choice.
00:43:18Please, Godfather, show some mercy.
00:43:21Drag them out and finish that.
00:43:22Don't make me say it again.
00:43:25Godfather, this was my failure.
00:43:27I should have kept a tighter leash on them.
00:43:34Nice work.
00:43:35The news and those photos are spreading like wildfire.
00:43:38Now every soul in the underworld knows Dante and I are an item.
00:43:41The boss hates being played, if he finds out.
00:43:44He just doesn't realize who he truly loves yet.
00:43:47I'm simply helping him see the light.
00:43:49That pathetic Dorothy is beneath him.
00:43:52Only I'm fit to stand by his side.
00:43:55As the lady of the white family.
00:43:59Just the thought of that bitch makes my blood boil.
00:44:02She's like a cockroach that won't die.
00:44:04I finally had my chance with that gasoline explosion and she still survived.
00:44:09If I'd known, I would have finished her off back at the punishment hall instead of just ruining her hand.
00:44:15She got off way too easy.
00:44:17Miss, did she really betray the family?
00:44:21She wouldn't dare.
00:44:23I was the one who leaked the secrets and used her as a scapegoat.
00:44:26But luckily, Dante chose to believe me.
00:44:29Once I'm officially the woman of this house,
00:44:31I'll find a dozen ways to end her.
00:44:44I'll find a dozen ways to end her.
00:44:51Dante?
00:44:52How long have you been standing there?
00:44:54You didn't hear any of that, did you?
00:44:56I was just talking nonsense.
00:45:00Dante, stop!
00:45:02Please!
00:45:02Every bone in her fingers was shattered because of you.
00:45:06The car bomb.
00:45:07That was you too.
00:45:08You fed her scraps.
00:45:10Forced her to her knees.
00:45:12And tortured her for four years.
00:45:14Right under my nose.
00:45:15Every him.
00:45:18He's actually going to kill me.
00:45:20I only did all of this because I love you so much.
00:45:23You're not even worthy of saying that word.
00:45:26I'm not worthy?
00:45:27Everything I did was because you looked the other way.
00:45:30Without your silent approval,
00:45:32who would have dared to touch Dorothy?
00:45:34You have a death wish.
00:45:36My father is the family's second in command.
00:45:39You can't kill me.
00:45:42I knew it.
00:45:43You don't have the guts to kill me.
00:45:45You're right.
00:45:46I'm not going to kill you.
00:45:47You tortured Dorothy for four years.
00:45:50Death would be an easy way out for you.
00:45:55Dante!
00:45:56You can't do this to me!
00:45:58Dante!
00:46:01When are you ever going to finish?
00:46:03You're here cooking every single day.
00:46:06Don't you have a real job?
00:46:08I'm just a low level thug.
00:46:10I spend my days running errands.
00:46:12I've got all the time in the world.
00:46:14There isn't a shred of truth in anything he says.
00:46:17That suit he was wearing is the same brand Dante wears.
00:46:20He's clearly loaded.
00:46:22Why would someone like him bother cooking for me every day?
00:46:24What's with the face?
00:46:26Scared I'm a bad guy?
00:46:28Bad guys don't show up every day to make dinner.
00:46:31Honestly, there's no future in being a thug.
00:46:34I'm thinking of brushing up on my skills and becoming a chef.
00:46:39There you go with the tall tales again.
00:46:45He left his coat behind.
00:46:52Boss.
00:47:08Boss.
00:47:10That car.
00:47:11There's only one like it in all of New York.
00:47:14The Black family.
00:47:16Vincent Black.
00:47:20Leave us.
00:47:25Are you scared of me?
00:47:27I never would have guessed that the kingpin of New York's underworld, the head of the Black
00:47:33family, would pose as some petty thug just to cook for me every day.
00:47:39I've officially cut ties with the whites.
00:47:42There's nothing left for you to gain from me.
00:47:45What if I told you I'm not after any of that?
00:47:48I don't care what your angle is.
00:47:50I'm done with the white family.
00:47:51I want nothing to do with your world anymore.
00:47:58I want nothing to do with the white family.
00:47:59Stop following me.
00:48:01You came all the way downstairs to return my coat.
00:48:04The least I can do is see you to your door.
00:48:11Dorothy, let's talk.
00:48:12We have nothing to talk about.
00:48:14It's 9 o'clock.
00:48:15Don't forget to take your medicine.
00:48:18How do you know that?
00:48:19Did you dig into my past?
00:48:21I know a lot more than you think.
00:48:23Dorothy, truth is, we met a long time ago.
00:48:27Long before you ever ran into Dante.
00:48:29You just don't remember.
00:48:36Dorothy, I'm downstairs.
00:48:38I've come to take you home.
00:48:59What did he say to you?
00:49:03You have to leave.
00:49:04No, wait.
00:49:05If you go now, you'll run right into him.
00:49:09Dorothy, don't be afraid of him.
00:49:11I know what he's put you through.
00:49:12I won't let him lay another finger on you.
00:49:15Then you should know I'm a sick woman.
00:49:17All I want is to be left alone to recover.
00:49:19I don't want to be dragged back into your world of chaos.
00:49:23Dorothy, I know you're in there.
00:49:25Open up.
00:49:28You're living in a dump like this?
00:49:30It suits me just fine.
00:49:32It's peaceful.
00:49:33You're coming home with me.
00:49:35Dante, you must have seen the divorce papers by now.
00:49:38I'm not signing them.
00:49:40Dorothy, come home.
00:49:41I know everything Via did.
00:49:43She switched the plates and caused your parents' accident.
00:49:46She made them serve you scraps.
00:49:48Forced you to kneel.
00:49:50Tampered with the car.
00:49:51I've uncovered it all.
00:49:53I've dealt with everyone who ever hurt you.
00:49:55The maids.
00:49:56Those thugs in the interrogation room.
00:49:58And Vera.
00:49:59And what about you?
00:50:00You say you've punished everyone who hurt me.
00:50:03But Dante, what about you?
00:50:04Did you count yourself among them?
00:50:06You know I only did what I had to for...
00:50:08For the white family?
00:50:09Stop lying to yourself.
00:50:11Dante, you're just a selfish man.
00:50:14I'm selfish?
00:50:15What about you?
00:50:16Throwing a tantrum over every little thing.
00:50:18And actually running away this time?
00:50:20Dorothy.
00:50:21Enough is enough.
00:50:22Come home.
00:50:23I know a wedding is what you've always wanted.
00:50:26Fine, I'll give it to you.
00:50:27Next week, at the Rose Garden.
00:50:30The most lavish ceremony possible.
00:50:32Everyone will know you're the lady of the white family.
00:50:37Dante, you still don't get it.
00:50:38I never cared about some grand wedding.
00:50:41All I ever wanted was for you to treat me like a human being.
00:50:45Are you really going through with this divorce?
00:50:46You're broken now.
00:50:48Who else would ever want a cripple like you?
00:50:55She said she's done with you.
00:50:57Was that not clear enough?
00:51:06She said she's done with you.
00:51:08Was that not clear enough?
00:51:15Vincent Black.
00:51:20Don't move!
00:51:22Dorothy.
00:51:22Tell me why he's coming out of your apartment.
00:51:27A soon-to-be ex-husband has no right to ask that.
00:51:31Dante, I should never have let you take her in the first place.
00:51:34Let me take her.
00:51:36Who the hell do you think you are?
00:51:41You're not good enough for her.
00:51:43Don't move.
00:51:44Are you looking for a war?
00:51:49Godfather, it's the docks.
00:51:51Something's gone wrong.
00:51:55Godfather, the docks have been blown sky up.
00:51:58The containers are gone.
00:51:59We're not going to make the delivery.
00:52:01Tens of millions of dollars are on the line.
00:52:04Shouldn't you be going?
00:52:06Did you do this?
00:52:07I've been standing right here.
00:52:09How could I have blown up your docks?
00:52:12Godfather, the fire is out of control.
00:52:14The clients are breathing down our necks.
00:52:16If we don't deliver tonight, we're finished.
00:52:20Dorothy, we're not finished.
00:52:26Dorothy, you can't stay here anymore.
00:52:29Dante's already tracked you down.
00:52:32Do you really think he'll let it go?
00:52:33He was distracted by business tonight.
00:52:36But what about tomorrow?
00:52:38Or the day after?
00:52:40Once Dante sets his mind on something,
00:52:42he never lets go.
00:52:44And now that he's convinced something is going on
00:52:47between Vincent and me,
00:52:48he'll never leave me alone.
00:52:50Dorothy, come with me.
00:52:53Where to?
00:52:56Haven't you always wanted to know what my angle is?
00:53:00Come with me.
00:53:02Once we get there, you'll understand everything.
00:53:08Come with me.
00:53:10Once we get there, you'll understand everything.
00:53:13I expected the black estate to be just like the whites.
00:53:16Code, fortress-like, and reeking of power and isolation.
00:53:19It actually feels like a home.
00:53:28Every single painting in this room is mine.
00:53:31The watercolors from my days in Rhode Island,
00:53:33the oils I painted in secret after I got married,
00:53:36even the sketches I scribbled during my darkest hours at the White House.
00:53:41All of these, how did you find them?
00:53:43Some I picked up from galleries,
00:53:45others I tracked down at auctions.
00:53:47Why go through all that trouble?
00:53:52I just wanted them to be where they belong.
00:53:54Somewhere they'd be seen and cherished.
00:53:57Just like the woman who painted them.
00:53:59I know you're confused.
00:54:00I'll explain everything.
00:54:02My mother, Eleanor,
00:54:04was a visiting professor at the Rhode Island School of Design.
00:54:07She was your teacher.
00:54:09Mrs. Black.
00:54:10You're Eleanor's son?
00:54:12How is she?
00:54:13Is she doing well?
00:54:15She's great.
00:54:16She still takes on a few students every year,
00:54:18even in retirement.
00:54:20She talks about you all the time.
00:54:25How many times do I have to tell you?
00:54:27You're the head of this family,
00:54:29not some street soldier looking for a fight.
00:54:33Godfather,
00:54:34the fire at the docks is out.
00:54:35As for the Klanomers,
00:54:37thank God you stepped in personally.
00:54:40They've agreed to a two-week extension.
00:54:43We're still digging into the cause,
00:54:45though there's not much evidence left.
00:54:50Are you even listening?
00:54:52Don't bother.
00:54:53It was Black.
00:54:55I can't believe he had the nerve
00:54:57to take Dorothy right from under my nose.
00:54:59Godfather.
00:55:00About Madam Dorothy and Vincent.
00:55:02When did this even start?
00:55:04Should I look into it?
00:55:06Then,
00:55:08it's just,
00:55:09according to family protocol,
00:55:11anyone who betrays the organization,
00:55:12starting now.
00:55:14I want every single one of the Black family's business lines dismantled.
00:55:19Ports,
00:55:20shipping,
00:55:21arms,
00:55:22I want it all.
00:55:24When their empire starts to crumble,
00:55:27Dorothy will come crawling back to me.
00:55:29And I won't be soft on her.
00:55:32I'll make sure she understands the price of betrayal.
00:55:37Dante,
00:55:38you need to hear this.
00:55:40If you don't,
00:55:43you'll regret it for the rest of your life.
00:55:51If you don't,
00:55:54you'll regret it for the rest of your life.
00:56:01She talks about me?
00:56:02She said you were the most talented student she ever taught.
00:56:06It's just a shame you gave up painting.
00:56:12A few times,
00:56:14I went to see my mother in the studio.
00:56:16Every time,
00:56:17I saw you painting.
00:56:18Sunlight would fall on your hair.
00:56:20When you painted,
00:56:22you were so focused.
00:56:24You never noticed anything around you.
00:56:26The colors you used were bright and warm.
00:56:29Different from everyone else in class.
00:56:32My mother said your faded radii world must be full of color.
00:56:37I was already getting my hands dirty with family business back then.
00:56:41Not by choice,
00:56:42but being the black air didn't leave me with many options.
00:56:45Every time I walked out of those dark rooms,
00:56:48I'd head straight to the studio just to watch you paint.
00:56:51I never said a word.
00:56:53I just watched you from afar.
00:56:55How did I never notice you?
00:56:57Because you never looked back.
00:56:59Eventually,
00:57:00I started leaving flowers on the windowsill before you arrived each morning.
00:57:04Daisies,
00:57:04roses,
00:57:05sometimes just wild flowers I'd picked.
00:57:07I never signed a note.
00:57:09The flowers?
00:57:11They were from you?
00:57:14That summer I turned 16.
00:57:16There was always a fresh bouquet waiting on that windowsill.
00:57:19I asked around,
00:57:20but no one had a clue.
00:57:22I eventually convinced myself it was just a habit of Mrs. Black's.
00:57:26I was waiting for the perfect moment to tell you it was me.
00:57:29But on the day you finished your graduation piece,
00:57:32I showed up with red roses only to find Dante already there to pick you up.
00:57:36I realized I was too late.
00:57:38But I never imagined he'd treat you so poorly.
00:57:41I'm not trying to force my feelings on you.
00:57:44I just want you to realize, Dorothy,
00:57:47that you have worth.
00:57:48Real worth.
00:57:50My worth?
00:57:51What good is a painter who can't even hold a cup steady?
00:57:54Focus on getting better first.
00:57:57Heal your body,
00:57:58then your hands.
00:58:00This brush isn't going anywhere.
00:58:02It'll be right here waiting for you.
00:58:05Whether it takes a year or a decade,
00:58:07it'll be here when you're ready.
00:58:10Vincent,
00:58:11you don't need to do all this for me.
00:58:14I told you,
00:58:15this isn't pity.
00:58:16Your only job right now is to eat,
00:58:19sleep,
00:58:19and get through your treatment.
00:58:21Leave the rest to me.
00:58:24Besides,
00:58:25there's someone else you should see.
00:58:27Who?
00:58:28My mother.
00:58:29She's coming to New York tomorrow,
00:58:30and she's dying to see you.
00:58:39There's someone else you should see.
00:58:41Who?
00:58:41My mother.
00:58:43She's coming to New York tomorrow,
00:58:44and she's dying to see you.
00:58:47Thank you, Vincent.
00:58:49I never imagined I'd see my teacher again,
00:58:51let alone that she'd still remember me,
00:58:54and even go as far as setting me up with a doctor.
00:58:56Dorothy,
00:58:57everything is going to be alright.
00:59:00To be honest,
00:59:01there was a time when I truly felt I couldn't go on.
00:59:04Ever since I found out it was Vera
00:59:06who swapped those plates and killed my parents,
00:59:09and that Dante had been covering for her all along,
00:59:12the nightmares haven't stopped.
00:59:16Every night,
00:59:17I see my parents.
00:59:18They're standing in the flames,
00:59:20covered in blood,
00:59:22asking me why I'm still living with the people who destroyed them.
00:59:25Every time I woke up,
00:59:27I'd ask myself what the point of living even was.
00:59:29Chemo is agonizing.
00:59:31In my weakest moments,
00:59:32I'd think,
00:59:34maybe dying wouldn't be so bad.
00:59:36At least I wouldn't have to face any of this anymore.
00:59:39But things are different now.
00:59:41Seeing my teacher again,
00:59:43knowing she still cares and believes in me,
00:59:46it makes me realize I have to keep fighting.
00:59:49Thank you,
00:59:50Vincent.
00:59:51Thank you for making me realize that I actually want to live.
00:59:56Dorothy.
01:00:05Dorothy.
01:00:06Dorothy.
01:00:08Dante,
01:00:08you're on Black Family ground now.
01:00:10You just trashed my front gate,
01:00:11I'll be sure to send you the bill later.
01:00:13Dorothy,
01:00:14come back with me.
01:00:15I'm not going anywhere with you.
01:00:16But you can't just give up.
01:00:18You need treatment.
01:00:19Come with me.
01:00:20I'll get you the best doctors in the world.
01:00:24I know the truth now.
01:00:26I know everything.
01:00:27Pantreatic cancer.
01:00:29Dorothy.
01:00:30How could you be so cold?
01:00:31You actually went and applied for medical aid?
01:00:34Do you really think I'm that heartless?
01:00:36That time I went for the bone marrow biopsy alone.
01:00:39When I came back,
01:00:41Vera accused me of betrayal.
01:00:42That biopsy was excruciating.
01:00:45But it was nothing compared to the pain of you ruining my hands
01:00:48just to save Vera's pride.
01:00:51Dante.
01:00:51Stop pretending you're so devoted.
01:00:54You're far more ruthless than you care to admit.
01:00:57If you have any humanity left in you at all,
01:00:59just let me go.
01:01:05Dante.
01:01:06Stop pretending you're so devoted.
01:01:08You're far more ruthless than you care to admit.
01:01:11If you have any humanity left in you at all,
01:01:14just let me go.
01:01:16You have no right to set foot near Dorothy again.
01:01:19Back off.
01:01:20This is between us.
01:01:22We're still husband and wife.
01:01:24Who the hell do you think you are to interfere?
01:01:26Didn't you hear a word she said?
01:01:28If you have a Shnera of humanity left,
01:01:31let her go.
01:01:32Her parents are dead,
01:01:34her hands are mangled,
01:01:35and she's fighting cancer.
01:01:37And she's fighting cancer.
01:01:37All thanks to you, Dante.
01:01:39I'll settle the score with you eventually.
01:01:41But for now,
01:01:42you aren't getting anywhere near her.
01:01:44I'm not giving up on her.
01:01:47Through every round of chemo that followed,
01:01:50Eleanor and Vinicent were right there by my side.
01:01:52With them supporting me,
01:01:55I felt myself getting stronger every day.
01:02:01Dorothy,
01:02:02you're doing great.
01:02:03All your vitals are heading in the right direction.
01:02:06Just a few more sessions and you're cleared to go home.
01:02:10After that,
01:02:11we'll just stick to a full checkup every six months.
01:02:16Thank you, Victor.
01:02:21Dorothy.
01:02:23Victor gave me the update.
01:02:24You're recovering well.
01:02:27And honestly,
01:02:28knowing you're okay is all that matters to me now.
01:02:31Don't be so guarded, Dorothy.
01:02:33I knew you had your follow-up today,
01:02:35and I just...
01:02:35I wanted to be near you.
01:02:38I know I'm a bastard.
01:02:39And I don't deserve you.
01:02:41But Vinicent isn't a saint either.
01:02:43Dorothy.
01:02:44If you ever need anything,
01:02:45just call.
01:02:46I'll be there in a heartbeat.
01:02:47I was aware that the blacks and the whites
01:02:49had been at each other's throats lately.
01:02:51Dante's family was losing ground fast.
01:02:54And he looked like he was at his breaking point.
01:02:57But none of that was his concern anymore.
01:02:59Are you finished?
01:03:07You should have cherished her while you had the chance.
01:03:10She's done with me.
01:03:12So, that's it?
01:03:13You're just giving up?
01:03:16Victor, do you believe in past lives?
01:03:24Victor, do you believe in past lives?
01:03:27Seriously, Dante?
01:03:30Maybe you should see a therapist instead of me.
01:03:33I've been having these dreams lately.
01:03:35But the things that happen in them,
01:03:38they feel real.
01:03:39Like they actually happened.
01:03:42What kind of dreams?
01:03:45In the dream, Dorothy died.
01:03:48Right at the gates of my estate.
01:03:50She was sick.
01:03:51She had cancer and came back to find me.
01:03:54But Vera blocked all her calls.
01:03:57And...
01:03:58I was looking at the ring in my hand.
01:04:00Thinking I'd go find her the very next day.
01:04:03We'd been together so long.
01:04:05It was time for me to swallow my pride.
01:04:07But then, Vera suddenly approached me.
01:04:11Dante, you have a papetal on your shoulder.
01:04:14Just as I was about to warn her off,
01:04:16I heard someone collapse behind me.
01:04:19It was Dorothy.
01:04:20She was lying right outside the garden gates.
01:04:23Still clutching that ring in her hand.
01:04:33Dante, are you sure this isn't just extreme stress talking?
01:04:38Everything that followed...
01:04:40Even now...
01:04:42It feels too vivid to be just a dream.
01:04:46I completely fell apart.
01:04:48The black family tore the whites to pieces in revenge.
01:04:52Vincent literally broke my legs.
01:04:55The family empire collapsed overnight.
01:04:58I ended up a vagrant.
01:05:00And died alone in the snow.
01:05:02In my final moments...
01:05:04I was still whispering...
01:05:07Dorothy, I'm sorry.
01:05:08When I woke up...
01:05:10It all finally clicked.
01:05:12No wonder she hated me so much.
01:05:15No wonder she looked at me like I was a complete stranger.
01:05:19Thank God this life turned out differently.
01:05:23She got away from a bastard like me.
01:05:26And she's actually living.
01:05:29That's enough for me.
01:05:32You have no one to blame but yourself.
01:05:37A year has passed.
01:05:39My cancer is in remission.
01:05:42And I've regained most of the use of my hands.
01:05:46Vincent has been courting me for the last six months.
01:05:51And I think it's finally time I gave him an answer.
01:05:55A year has passed.
01:05:56A year has passed.
01:05:57A year has passed.
01:05:58A year has passed.
01:06:00A year has passed.
01:06:01A year has passed.
01:06:01You
