06:01thank you thank you so much
06:08Dr. Lane I'm Lucas Reed got a minute he stayed from this morning all the way to now you know
06:14who I am
06:14yes I've been looking for you for three years or Alice the one and only successor to the world's best
06:20neurosurgeon
06:20so that's what he means three years married and he doesn't even know my face of course not
06:26so the guarantee stepping in front of that bottle all of that was because I'm Alice
06:32yes your hands couldn't be risen
06:34even so what does that have to do with you Mr. Reed
06:37there's a surgery I need done
06:39I've been to every specialist I can find no one will take the case
06:43he helped me today we're even one surgery then we're done for good
06:47I once heard the housekeeper mention that there's someone Lucas never got over
06:51is this her?
06:53three months at most
06:55the fragment is pressing on her optic nerve she's already blind her hearing is probably going too
06:59that's right
07:01the window was a year ago why wasn't she operated on?
07:05best odds anyone could give me were 50-50 I couldn't accept that
07:09that's how much he loves her
07:11but then again why did he agree to marry me three years ago?
07:14a backup plan just in case she didn't make it bottom line he's trash total trash
07:20what if I'm not easy to find?
07:22or what if I can't guarantee the surgery works?
07:24you've waited this long what if she doesn't make it off the table?
07:26as long as you're alive I'll find you
07:30unbelievable
07:30you've been gambling with someone else's life this whole time and you think that makes you devoted?
07:34fine I've looked it over but I need to see the patient myself before I decide anything
07:38I know her condition inside and out I can speak on her behalf
07:41speak on her behalf?
07:42she's the one whose life is at stake
07:43I'm responsible for my patient not you
07:45if that's how you want to do this then I'm sorry
07:49I can't take the case
07:51why is she so hostile to me?
07:59ellie! to celebrate your freedom and your grand return to medicine I got us a booth
08:04we are going out tonight
08:10wait that jerk actually cheated you're sure?
08:13you're all over the internet Coco is it really okay to be out like this?
08:17I've got a hat on nobody's gonna recognize me
08:19you got played the least I can do is get you out of the house
08:23you just go ahead
08:27I'll be right there
08:32she looks different outside of work
08:35oh I heard that new signing at his company apparently she's his girlfriend
08:39look

08:43how many is he juggling?
08:46she looks perfectly healthy
08:49definitely not the girl Lucas wants me to operate on
08:54hey gorgeous
08:55drinking alone's no fun
08:57come sit with us
08:58don't bother looking security's been taken care of
09:00nobody's coming
09:01they plan this
09:02I've barely been out in three years to have crossed anyone
09:05this has to be about Coco
09:07and if I say no?
09:09even better
09:10Miss Shay's solid
09:11this chick's hot
09:13shut your mouth
09:15the woman called Miss Shay sent them?
09:17I need Sophie to look into this
09:27who the hell are you?
09:38three years no contact before the divorce
09:40now he's everywhere
09:42either he's following me
09:43or I've got the worst luck
09:46Mr. Reid, what are you doing here?
09:47are you following me?
09:48why can't I be here?
09:51you've been drinking
09:54don't worry Dr. Lane
09:55your personal life is none of my business
09:58I just want to be here
09:58I just want to know
09:59in this state
10:00can you hold a scalpel steady?
10:03right
10:04he's worried I'll be too drunk to operate on his precious girl
10:06what I do and whether I can hold a scalpel is none of your concern
10:09if you doubt me find someone else
10:11I haven't agreed to anything yet anyway
10:13she really doesn't hold back
10:16I'll meet your conditions
10:17I'll come pick you up myself tomorrow morning
10:19I hope you'll keep your word Dr. Lane
10:21as long as you follow proper procedure
10:23I will
10:31Sophie, I need you to look into someone
10:33they called her Shay
10:34two punks came after me and Coco tonight using her name
10:37I need to know who she is
10:38on it, I'll let you know the second I find anything
10:41but don't you think it's a little funny?
10:44what do you mean?
10:45Lucas Reid
10:45three years you never even saw him
10:47and the day you divorce you run into him twice
10:49either he's stalking you
10:50or fate has a really bad sense of humor
10:53let it go Sophie, he's in the past
11:02Dr. Lane, um, are you seeing anyone?
11:07no
11:09really? really awesome! Dr. Lane, I really like-
11:12I'm single, I'm also a wid- um, I mean, I'm divorced
11:19that's an interesting way to turn someone down
11:22yep, believe it or not I actually wouldn't have minded just staying widowed
11:26her background's clean and marriage status is blank
11:29is she telling the truth or playing games?
11:34your personal life isn't my concern, Dr. Lane
11:37the car's ready, let's go
11:39why ask so much if you don't care, weirdo?
11:51Mr. Reid, little miss knew you were coming today so she insisted on coming out to meet you
12:02Lucas, brother?
12:04brother? are they actually siblings or is it something else?
12:08hey Lucas
12:08Lucas?
12:10Ellie, I've told you, be good
12:12Lucas likes well-behaved girls
12:17Ellie? same as my nook name
12:19so when Lucas agreed to marry me three years ago, was it because of my name?
12:22that's disgusting
12:24Nancy, take her back inside
12:29you must be Dr. Lane
12:30I'm Sherry who's been looking after Ellie
12:32Lucas and I are old friends
12:33hi, Sherry? why does that name sound familiar?
12:41the way she's looking at me, like she knows me, we only just met
12:47well, well, bitch, I underestimated you
12:51Dr. Lane, are you alright?
12:55Dr. Lane, shall we head in? I can show you to the room
12:59no need, I already got a look just now
13:02she's doing a little better than I expected
13:03I'll go back and put together a full surgical plan
13:05we can talk once it's ready
13:07one look was enough, I've got the right person
13:09Mr. Reid?
13:11of course, thank you Dr. Lane
13:17Dr. Lane, are you going to take the case?
13:21you really don't want me to do it?
13:22no, I don't, I mean, yes, yes, I definitely want you to do it
13:26Dr. Lane, that's not why I came out
13:27I just wanted to ask, do you have a boyfriend?
13:29a co-option, but not smart enough
13:32do you go for someone like Lucas?
13:34he's so accomplished, so successful
13:35pretty sure every woman would be into him, right?
13:38huh, she wants to know if I'm competition
13:39you said it yourself, he's accomplished, he's successful
13:42I'm a woman, of course I'd be into him
13:43accomplished? successful?
13:51why were you standing so close?
13:53you're the one who spun around
13:55anyway, did you mean that?
13:57obviously not
14:00no? then explain it to me, Dr. Lane
14:03were you testing me?
14:04Dr. Lane, you don't mind that Lucas was married before, right?
14:08his ex-wife wasn't good enough for him
14:10divorce was a good thing, so please don't hold it that against him
14:13you hid your marriage so well, but the divorce?
14:16you made sure everyone knew
14:17you really couldn't wait, could you?
14:19is that how you see her too, Mr. Reed?
14:22we weren't right for each other
14:24the divorce was the best outcome for both of us
14:26you never respected me or got to know me in the past three years
14:29best for us? that's rich coming from you
14:32good for you then
14:33I just hope you don't end up regretting it someday
14:36let go of me
14:37you're angry
14:39is it because I've been married?
14:41you're reading into it, Mr. Reed
14:42your marriage isn't my problem
14:44I just feel for your ex-wife
14:45those women won't stop running their mouths about her even now
14:48you've got the wrong idea, she and I weren't like that, she was just-
14:51sorry, I'm not interested
14:52and I'm not the one you owe an explanation to
14:55she is
14:57neither of us wanted that marriage
14:59I settled with her at the end, we're even
15:01I never liked her, I owe her nothing
15:03even, you can explain yourself to a doctor you just met
15:06but your wife of three years didn't deserve so much as a word
15:09incredible
15:10you don't owe me an explanation either
15:11I'm not interested
15:16Lucas, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought it up
15:18you did that on purpose, don't play dumb, I don't want it happening again
15:22Lucas, don't you think you're paying an awful lot of attention to Dr. Dr. Lane?
15:28that's only because she's the surgeon
15:30yeah, that's all
15:34until that surgery is done, you stay away from her
15:41just you wait, Elena Lane
15:44Ellie, I've got something
15:48Shay is Sherry, she paid those two punnings to go after Coco
15:51there was a third guy there filming, they wanted leverage on her
15:55Sherry?
15:57so it was her
15:58what do you want to do?
16:00leave them for now
16:02that's not like you
16:04three years in that house must have knocked the edge off you
16:06no, you've got it wrong
16:08harassment that didn't land?
16:09attempted harassment?
16:11that's months, max
16:12I want something that actually hurts
16:15good, I know what to do
16:19thanks Sophie
16:26Dr. Lane, it's Sherry
16:28well, well, speak of the devil
16:31what is it?
16:32since you've agreed to do Ellie's surgery
16:33I'd love to take you to dinner as a thank you
16:35I've already sent a car to the hospital
16:37I hope you'll come
16:40sure, I'll be there
16:42let's see how long you last when you're out of your depth
16:45since I'm going to make them pay anyway
16:47might as well be tonight
17:00who is this?
17:01does she not know this is a private event?
17:03who let her in?
17:04this is one of Lucas's venues
17:05did he set this whole thing up?
17:10everyone, this is Dr. Elena Lane from Hargrage, my guest tonight
17:14Mr. Don speaks before he thinks
17:16don't take it personally
17:17told me she wasn't interested
17:19and here she is
17:20women
17:20I should have mentioned tonight is a business dinner for Vertex Media
17:23I borrowed Lucas's face
17:25sorry for not being clearer
17:28business talk
17:29probably not your world, right?
17:31you might find it a bit hard to follow, Dr. Lane
17:34Miss Sherry, I didn't come looking for trouble
17:37but if you're gonna keep trying to embarrass me
17:39then I'm sorry
17:41even I'm embarrassed for you
17:43what is wrong with you?
17:44Sherry was kind enough to invite you
17:46and look what you did
17:46don't blame Dr. Lane, it was my fault
17:48I tripped
17:50Lucas, don't blame her
17:51she really didn't push me
17:52you're still defending her?
17:53don't worry, with Mr. Reed here
17:55she can't do a thing to you
17:56you really have no idea who you're dealing with
18:11Ms. Sherry
18:12you tried to humiliate me and frame me
18:15did you really think I'd just let that go?
18:17you're insane
18:19I didn't do anything
18:20I just... I slipped
18:22really?
18:28Lucas, help me!
18:30you lunatic!
18:31you actually cut her!
18:36Dr. Lane, you're embarrassing Lucas!
18:39he won't care what happens to me
18:41but his image?
18:42Elena, good luck
18:44are you done?
18:45someone take her out and have that looked at
18:47nobody moves
18:53know your place
18:55Mr. Reed could end your career with one phone call
18:57so what's with the act, small town girl?
18:58spare me the comedy
19:00that night, Ms. Sherry hired punks
19:02to go after my friend and have the whole thing filmed
19:03the whole three of them have talked
19:05so?
19:06are you going to cover for her?
19:08nonsense!
19:09I've never set foot in a bar
19:10I don't know any punks
19:11Dr. Lane, you can't wrong me like this
19:13I never said anything about a bar
19:18come after me
19:19come after me
19:19or come after anyone I care about
19:20you'll end up just like those three guys
19:23you hear me?
19:26no, you bitch! let go of me!
19:28I thought you were afraid
19:30by the way, those three are already in custody
19:32attempted assault, kidnapping
19:34that's not a short sentence
19:35they won't be out for a long time
19:49Dr. Lane, wait!
19:53are you coming to stand up for her, Mr. Reed?
19:56do you hate me, Dr. Lane?
19:57hate you?
19:58I don't know you well enough for that
19:59you're a stranger to me, Mr. Reed, that's all
20:01a stranger whose dinner party you just attended?
20:03you're more spontaneous than I expected?
20:06yeah, I am
20:06which is exactly why you should keep your distance
20:08once your imagery is done
20:09I hope we'll cross the paths again
20:15stubborn woman
20:20everything went smoothly
20:2124 hours of observation
20:22if there are no complications
20:23she's in the clear
20:25thank you, Dr. Lane
20:26just doing my job
20:27once she's recovered
20:28we won't need to see each other again
20:29do you have to be so cold about it?
20:31hey, Ellie
20:32why am I so upset after she said that?
20:42something else, Mr. Reed?
20:43I had a team evaluate you
20:44your work is even stronger than it was three years ago
20:47and?
20:48I'd like to formally offer you a position at Reed Medical
20:50head of neurosurgery and deputy director
20:52name your terms
20:54Reed Medical may be private
20:55but it's hired top doctors worldwide
20:57you really will do anything for the woman you love, won't you?
21:00does that mean yes?
21:01no, I'm happy where I am
21:03she needs you, Dr. Lane
21:04if the offer isn't enough
21:05tell me what you want
21:06I'll make it work
21:07a hundred million dollars, can you do that?
21:09done
21:10I'll have finance transfer it now
21:11I didn't think he'd actually go that far for her
21:14I changed my mind, sorry
21:15Dr. Lane
21:17there's being greedy
21:18and then there's pushing it
21:19greedy?
21:20you're rich, Mr. Reed
21:21but I'm not short on money
21:22a hundred million honestly doesn't do much for me
21:24really?
21:25then what would?
21:26go down to the main lobby
21:27shout I'm a jerk
21:28three times in front of everyone
21:30do that
21:30and I'll join Reed Medical
21:33are you serious?
21:34do I seem like someone who jokes around with strangers?
21:38all I wanted was to get even
21:40if I didn't have to keep a low profile
21:42I would have called you out already
21:44what's the matter Mr. Reed?
21:45get cold feet?
21:46or maybe you just don't love her enough to do something this small
21:49Dr. Lane
21:50a hundred million is serious money
21:52if it's not enough
21:53I can go higher
21:53so that's a no
21:54exit's that way
21:55goodbye
22:01sir, I looked into it
22:03the bar accident wasn't random
22:04Ms. Sherry paid those men
22:06there was a third one filming
22:07Dr. Lane wasn't lying
22:09take care of those three
22:11make it right on Dr. Lane's behalf
22:15understood
22:16tell me something
22:17why do you think she'd walk away from a hundred million just to make it look stupid in public?
22:21what does that say to you?
22:22sir
22:23it sounds like she might have feelings for you
22:25for me?
22:27feelings for me?
22:28so she's jealous
22:29that's why she wanted me to
22:32the divorce agreement is signed
22:34get it to her
22:35handle the paperwork at the courthouse in a month
22:37yes sir

34:38don't those need signing
34:42that friend of dr lane's coco
34:43her company trouble might be on us
34:45sort it out
34:46actually sir
34:47nexus tech has already stepped in
34:49nexus tech
34:49they only operate overseas
34:51why would they suddenly help a local streaming company
34:54i'm not sure either
34:55there's no info on the big boss behind nexus tech
34:57no idea why they get involved
34:59nexus is our biggest competitor for the overseas market
35:01we can't expand internationally with them in the way
35:03look into the person behind nexus
35:05let me know as soon as you find anything
35:12dr lane
35:16ethan you're finally back
35:17business kept me off sores
35:19first thing i did when i landed was come find you
35:21get in i'm taking you to eat
35:22call sophie
35:22the three of us haven't eaten together in ages
35:26grandma took us in
35:27elena's always seen you as her big brother
35:29now your feelings changed

35:57he has feelings for her too
36:00that's your ex-husband
36:02are you two still in contact
36:05just work stuff
36:07someone's been quietly digging into nexus tech's ownership
36:09from what i can tell it's him
36:11why would he investigate me
36:13nexus doesn't compete with elena our group directly
36:15i'm not sure what he's after
36:16but don't worry he won't trace it back to you
36:18is there any chance it's you two get back together
36:20we never even met during the marriage
36:22he never cared about me
36:23no way we're getting back together
36:29she's never smiled at me like that
36:34come have a drink with me

36:45if it's real
36:46go after her

36:56why didn't you answer my calls
36:57he means ethan

37:06you were supposed to be the man who treated me best
37:08but you left and cheated
37:09you have no right to interfere in my life anymore
