10:27Vous êtes dieting again?
10:30That's none of your business. Lucas, let go.
10:33Lucas pulled me toward the cafeteria.
10:35You get dizzy when you starve yourself. Did you forget? Planning to pass out again?
10:40If you don't let go, I'll bite you.
10:42You really don't know who is good to you?
10:46Drop the act.
10:47After that, I turned and walked back to the classroom.
10:50Sebastian was lying across his desk, alone.
10:54Is your stomach hurting again?
10:56Sebastian slowly lifted his head.
10:59Yeah.
11:00I wanted to buy medicine, but I forgot where the nurse's office was.
11:06I saw you downstairs just now, but you were talking to some guy, so I didn't want to interrupt.
11:15Lily, it hurts.
11:16I'll go buy it for you right now. Wait here.
11:19I'll go with you. That way I can remember the route.
11:27I held his arm and let Tim hold the nurse's office.
11:30When we went downstairs, we ran into Lucas.
11:36Sebastian suddenly lost his balance.
11:37I hurt too much to walk. Let me rest for a second, okay?
11:40I opened my mouth, but when he made another soft sound of pain, I could not refuse.
11:46Lucas' eyes turned cold at once. He had just taken one step toward us when Blake and Bella caught up
11:52from behind.
11:53Whoa! Fatty and Ghost Boy, what are you two doing?
11:57What did you call her?
11:59Fatty.
12:00Am I wrong?
12:01Sebastian punched him so that I could react.
12:04I rushed between them and shut Tyler hard.
12:07Run!
12:10Only when we reached the nurse's office did I let out a breath.
12:13Thank you, Sebastian.
12:15But next time, just ignore him.
12:17He won a taekwondo tournament before.
12:19We can't beat him.
12:25But he was bullying you.
12:28Lily, I can't let anyone bully you.
12:40During the month, I had a crush on Lucas Reed, the football captain.
12:43I tried everything to lose weight.
12:44One day, after volleyball practice, I almost passed out from hunger.
12:47Lucas caught my wrist and pulled me into a quiet corner beside the gym.
12:51Can you stop starving yourself?
12:54If anyone makes another joke joke about your body, I'll shut them up.
12:58That was the day I thought Lucas might like me, too.
13:01So after our football team won the next game, I walked onto the field.
13:09Lucas, I like you.
13:13What?
13:14Lily Taylor, did you just say you like Lucas?
13:17A voice carried across the field.
13:19For one second, everyone went silent.
13:24Damn, Lucas really is something.
13:26Even the fatty has a crush on him.
13:28Lucas, is that why you keep rejecting girls?
13:30You were saving yourself for her?
13:32You serious?
13:35My face burned.
13:37I could not say on who they lived.
13:39Then a loud thud blew the field.
13:41Football shot past my ear and slammed into the ground behind me.
13:45The boys who had been laughing shut up.
13:47Lucas looked down at me.
13:48I just want to know one thing.
13:50What made you think you could confess to me?
13:52Did you think my standards were that low?
13:53My whole body went stiff.
13:55The heat drained from my face.
13:57Don't you think you're kind of gross?
13:58The role for all I need to be louder.
14:00I could not take it anymore.
14:02I ran into the restroom and knocked myself inside a stall.
14:07Suddenly, cold water I spilled on my face.
14:11Next time, look in a mirror before you embarrass Lucas.
14:14I knocked away.
14:15I stood there without moving.
14:17Cold water dripped from my hair onto me.
14:20I had been mocked for my body for years.
14:23But Lucas was the first boy who ever defended me.
14:25For a while, I thought my life could be different.
14:29But today, Lucas crushed that dream himself.
14:32I finally understood.
14:33Girls like me did not get exceptions.
14:38The next morning, one of Lucas' friends came over to move his desk.
14:41Lucas said he felt sick after yesterday.
14:43He's taking a few days off.
14:45He asked me to move his seat.
14:48After saying that, he seemed to realize how cruel it sounded.
14:52He met my numb eyes and quickly added,
14:54Not because of you.
14:55Don't overthink it.
14:56I blinked hard.
14:57I could not understand why being bigger than other girls
14:59and people hate me this much.
15:00I only ate a little more than they did.
15:03Was that really so disgusting?
15:06Three days later, Lucas came back.
15:08He walked into the classroom with his arm around Bella Hart's waist.
15:12Bella was captain of the cheer squad and every guy's dream girl.
15:16And I was Lily Taylor,
15:18a nobody people only remembered when they needed a joke.
15:21Chase could not help whistling.
15:23Damn, Lucas.
15:24Finally got yourself a girlfriend?
15:25So is it real or just for show?
15:28Bella pouted like she was offended.
15:30What do you mean?
15:31Do I look like the kind of girl who lets random guys put their hands on my waist?
15:34Lucas lifted his brow lazily.
15:36Lucas did not deny it.
15:38People started cheering and teasing them.
15:40I lowered my head and looked at me workbook.
15:42At least no one cared about what happened that day anymore.
15:45No one had time to laugh at me.
15:47That was already good enough.
15:52After that, I buried myself in schoolwork.
15:55On the next AP calculus test,
15:57I beat Ethan Miller, the top student, for the first time.
15:59The moment class ended,
16:00Ethan moved his desk beside mine.
16:03Ms. Carter said I keep messing up the written explanations.
16:06She told me to learn from you.
16:07Then he smiled at me.
16:09New seatmate.
16:10Help me out.
16:11It took me a few seconds to realize I had a seatmate again.
16:13I was a little happy,
16:14so I quickly pulled out my notebook.
16:17Here.
16:18This is what I use.
16:19Thanks.
16:19When I looked up by accident,
16:21I met Lucas' eyes across the room.
16:23He had been watching us for a while.
16:25A second later,
16:26he looked away first.
16:27I did not know my confession had disgusted him that much.
16:30So much so that he could not even stand to see me doing okay.
16:33The next morning,
16:34Ethan brought me two sausage rolls.
16:36I had just taken them when Lucas walked over with a low laugh.
16:40Didn't know you had your specific taste, man.
16:43Ethan's face changed.
16:45What do you mean?
16:49Lucas dropped a stack of printed pictures on my desk.
16:52For you.
16:54You like this type, right?
16:56Want me to bring you more tomorrow?
17:00Who the hell said I liked fat girls?
17:04Oh.
17:05I saw you move seats.
17:06I thought you were into her.
17:08Was I wrong?
17:09Lucas' friends laughed with him.
17:13Ethan cursed under his breath.
17:15Then he moved back to his old seat without another word.
17:19From beginning to end,
17:20neither of them looked at me.
17:21But every word was about me.
17:24My eyes fell on the pictures scattered across the desk.
17:27The sausage rolls in my hands went cold.
17:29Before Lucas walked away,
17:31Why would you do this?
17:34What?
17:38Are you that desperate for attention?
17:39Every guy who sits beside you gets the full treatment.
17:45After what Lucas did,
17:46everything got worse.
17:48One morning,
17:49I found my desk covered in graffiti.
17:51I kept my head down and walked to my locker.
17:53The moment I opened it,
17:55a stack of printed pictures slipped out
17:56and scattered across the floor.
17:58Students slowed down as they passed
18:00and started laughing.
18:01I crouched down and picked up the pictures one by one.
18:04After that,
18:05no one wanted to hang out with me anymore.
18:07They were afraid they would become the next target.
18:10During lunch,
18:11I sat alone under a tree
18:12and took big bites of my food.
18:14Even though,
18:15I never thought about dieting again.
18:17The only time I had tried to lose weight
18:18was because I liked Lucas more than food.
18:21Now,
18:21I did not like him anymore.
18:23That Friday,
18:24we had volleyball class.
18:25Halfway through class,
18:27it started pouring.
18:28Everyone ran toward the gym entrance.
18:30They laughed and screamed
18:31while covering their heads.
18:32I followed behind them.
18:34Before I could reach the door,
18:35several girls started knocking me
18:36back and forth between them.
18:38I lost my balance
18:38and fell hard onto the wet court.
18:40My kneecap slid out of place.
18:42The pain was so sharp
18:44that I could not sit up.
18:45Then a person stopped beside me.
18:47I grabbed one pant leg without thinking.
18:50I can't stand...
18:51Can you help me?
18:52It was Lucas.
18:55No.
18:56Bella laughed beside him.
18:58Maybe if you lost weight,
18:59you wouldn't fall so hard.
19:01I was soaked through.
19:03Lucas did not look at me.
19:04He walked past me.
19:06I can't help you.
19:07Rain kept running into my mouth,
19:09but my throat still felt dry.
19:11I could only try to push myself up.
19:13Near the gym entrance,
19:14I heard people talking.
19:15She doesn't look like she's faking it.
19:17This is too much.
19:18Should we help her?
19:18You like her?
19:20You go.
19:20Who the hell said I liked Batgirls?
19:23It took me almost ten minutes to sit up.
19:25I still could not stand.
19:27So I sat quietly in the rain.
19:29I forced myself to think about
19:31what Grandma might make for dinner.
19:32Otherwise, the pain in my knee
19:34and the eyes behind me would break me.
19:36In the end, I got up by myself.
19:39The voices at the gym entrance never stopped.
19:41I did not dare look back.
19:43I limped to the security office
19:45and called Grandma.
19:46After hearing what happened,
19:48Grandma decided I needed to get her.
19:50from that day on,
19:51she planned my meals
19:52and made me exercise with her.
19:54If they try to knock you down again,
19:55hit back.
20:00I stayed home for two days before going back to school.
20:03That morning, Grandma only let me eat one whole wheat egg sandwich.
20:06I felt miserable.
20:07But soon, Ms. Carter walked into the classroom.
20:09Behind her stood a strange transfer student.
20:11Ms. Carter looked around the room.
20:13Her eyes finally stopped at me.
20:14Sebastian Cole, sit beside Lily.
20:16After that, she hurried back to the office.
20:18Sebastian sat in the empty spot beside me.
20:21Neither of us seemed interested in talking.
20:23But Blake could never keep his voice down.
20:25Lucas, look.
20:26This guy is weird.
20:27His whole face is covered.
20:29What, is he disfigured?
20:31Probably.
20:32If he looked good,
20:33why would he hide his face?
20:35Ghost boy and chubby Lily.
20:37New couple alert.
20:39Lucas did not react.
20:40He only spun his hand lazily
20:41and said nothing.
20:42For almost a month,
20:44Sebastian and I
20:45barely spoke.
20:46I did not want to talk.
20:48I was afraid the same thing that happened with Ethan
20:50would happen again.
20:51Then one afternoon after class,
20:52I noticed Sebastian lying across his desk.
20:55After hesitating for a moment,
20:56I walked over.
20:57Do you have a stomach ache?
21:01Yeah.
21:04I'll take you to the nurse's office.
21:06Luckily, he did not pull away when I touched him.
21:08He was almost six feet two.
21:10Most of his weight leaned against me.
21:12Good thing I was sturdy.
21:13Otherwise,
21:14I would not have been able to hold him up.
21:16The nurse gave him medicine.
21:18Then she asked me to get him some water.
21:20I ran to buy it.
21:21Then hurried back.
21:22By then,
21:22Sebastian was the only one left in the nurse's office.
21:24You dislike me that much and still help me?
21:27That's pretty kind of you, Lily.
21:28I don't dislike you.
21:29I thought you hated me,
21:30so I didn't talk to you.
21:30Why would I hate you?
21:32Because I'm fat.
21:34I suddenly felt he was probably not disfigured at all.
21:39After that day,
21:40Sebastian and I slowly got closer,
21:42but he was still strange.
21:43He never took off his mask.
21:44He barely talked to anyone else,
21:46but he always ran with me after school.
21:48My body changed, too.
21:50Without noticing it,
21:51I had gotten stronger.
21:52Grandma was pleased.
21:53She said I looked healthier now.
21:55I never expected Lucas
21:56to be the first person at school to notice.
21:59That afternoon,
22:00I sat on the lawn,
22:01finishing the low-fat turkey bowl
22:03Grandma had packed for me.
22:04I had just picked up my lunchbox
22:06when Lucas suddenly grabbed my wrist.
22:07You're dieting again?
22:09That's none of your business.
22:10Lucas, let go.
22:11Lucas pulled me toward the cafeteria.
22:13You get dizzy when you starve yourself.
22:15Did you forget?
22:16Planning to pass out again?
22:18If you don't let go,
22:19I'll bite you.
22:20You really don't know
22:21who is good to you?
22:23Drop the act.
22:24After that,
22:25I turned and walked back
22:26to the classroom.
22:27Sebastian was lying
22:28across his desk, alone.
22:30Is your stomach hurting again?
22:32Sebastian slowly lifted his head.
22:35Yeah.
22:36I wanted to buy medicine,
22:38but I forgot
22:40where the nurse's office was.
22:41I saw you downstairs just now,
22:43but you were talking to some guy
22:47so I didn't want to interrupt.
22:50Lily, it hurts.
22:51I'll go buy it for you right now.
22:52Wait here.
22:54I'll go with you.
22:55That way I can remember the route.
23:01I held his arm
23:02and let Tim hold the nurse's office.
23:03When he went downstairs,
23:04he ran into Lucas.
23:09Sebastian suddenly rest his balance.
23:10I hurt too much to walk.
23:11Let me rest for a second, okay?
23:13I opened my mouth,
23:14but when he made another
23:15soft sound of pain,
23:16I could not refuse.
23:18Lucas's eyes turned cold at once.
23:20He had just taken one step toward us
23:22when Blake and Bella
23:23caught up from behind.
23:24Whoa!
23:25Fatty and Ghost Boy,
23:26what are you two doing?
23:28What did you call her?
23:29Fatty.
23:31Am I wrong?
23:31Sebastian punched him
23:32so he could react.
23:34I rushed between them
23:36and shut Tyler hard.
23:37Run!
23:39Only when we reached
23:40the nurse's office
23:41did I let out a breath.
23:42Thank you, Sebastian.
23:44But next time,
23:45just ignore him.
23:46He won a taekwondo tournament before.
23:48We can't beat him.
23:53But he was bullying you.
23:56Lily, I can't let anyone bully you.
24:07During the months,
24:08I had a crush on Lucas Reed,
24:09the football captain.
24:10I tried everything to lose weight.
24:11One day,
24:12after volleyball practice,
24:13I almost passed out from hunger.
24:15Lucas caught my wrist
24:15and pulled me into a quiet corner
24:17beside the gym.
24:19Can you stop starving yourself?
24:22If anyone makes another joke joke
24:23about your body,
24:24I'll shut them up.
24:25That was the day I thought
24:26Lucas might like me, too.
24:28So after our football team
24:29won the next game,
24:30I walked onto the field.
24:36Lucas, I like you.
24:41What?
24:42Lily Taylor,
24:42did you just say
24:43you like Lucas?
24:44A voice carried across the field.
24:46For one second,
24:47everyone went silent.
24:51Damn, Lucas really is something.
24:53Even the fatty has a crush on him.
24:55Lucas,
24:56is that why you keep rejecting girls?
24:57You were saving yourself for her?
25:00You serious?
25:02My face burned.
25:04I could not say anything.
25:06Then a loud thud
25:07blew the field.
25:09Football shot past my ear
25:10and slammed into the ground behind me.
25:12The boys who had been laughing shut up.
25:14Lucas looked down at me.
25:15I just want to know one thing.
25:17What made you think
25:18you could confess to me?
25:19Did you think my standards
25:20were that low?
25:21My whole body went stiff.
25:22The heat drained from the face.
25:24Don't you think
25:24you're kind of gross?
25:25You're also allowing me to be lighter.
25:27I could not take it anymore.
25:29I ran into the dressing
25:30and locked myself inside a stall.
25:34Suddenly,
25:35cold water
25:36was still going on.
25:38Next time,
25:39look in a mirror
25:40before you embarrass Lucas.
25:41Lucas was like
25:42I left away.
25:43I stood there
25:44without moving.
25:44cold water
25:45dripped from my hair
25:46onto me.
25:48I had been mocked
25:49for my body for years
25:50but Lucas was the first boy
25:51who ever defended me.
25:53For a while,
25:54I thought my life
25:55could be different.
25:57Today,
25:57Lucas crushed that dream himself.
25:59I finally understood.
26:01Girls like me
26:01did not get exceptions.
26:05The next morning,
26:06one of Lucas' friends
26:07came over
26:07to move his desk.
26:08Lucas said he felt sick
26:10after yesterday.
26:11He's taking a few days off.
26:12he asked me
26:13to move his seat.
26:16After saying that,
26:17he seemed to realize
26:18how cruel it sounded.
26:19He met my numb eyes
26:20and quickly added,
26:21Not because of you.
26:22Don't overthink it.
26:23I blinked hard.
26:24I could not understand
26:25why being bigger than other girls
26:26and people hate me this much.
26:28I only ate
26:29a little more than they did.
26:30Was that really
26:31so disgusting?
26:33Three days later,
26:34Lucas came back.
26:35He walked into the classroom
26:37with his arm
26:38around Bella Hart's waist.
26:40Bella was captain
26:40of the cheer squad
26:41and every guy's dream girl.
26:43And I was Lily Taylor,
26:45a nobody people
26:46only remembered
26:47when they needed a joke.
26:48Chase could not help whistling.
26:50Damn, Lucas.
26:51Finally got yourself a girlfriend?
26:52So is it real
26:53or just for show?
26:55Bella pouted
26:56like she was offended.
26:57What do you mean?
26:58Do I look like the kind of girl
26:59who lets random guys
27:00put their hands on my waist?
27:02Lucas lifted his brow lazily.
27:04Lucas did not deny it.
27:05People started cheering
27:06and teasing them.
27:07I lowered my head
27:08and looked at me workbook.
27:10At least no one cared
27:11about what happened
27:11that day anymore.
27:12No one had time
27:13to laugh at me.
27:14That was already good enough.
27:20After that,
27:20I buried myself in schoolwork.
27:22On the next AP calculus test,
27:24I beat Ethan Miller,
27:25the top student,
27:26for the first time.
27:26The moment class ended,
27:28Ethan moved his desk
27:29beside mine.
27:30Ms. Carter said
27:31I keep messing up
27:32the written explanations.
27:33She told me to learn from you.
27:34Then he smiled at me.
27:36New seatmate.
27:37Help me out.
27:38It took me a few seconds
27:39to realize I had a seatmate again.
27:41I was a little happy,
27:42so I quickly pulled out my notebook.
27:44Here.
27:45This is what I use.
27:46Thanks.
27:47When I looked up by accident,
27:48I met Lucas' eyes
27:49across the room.
27:50He had been watching us
27:51for a while.
27:52A second later,
27:53he looked away toast.
27:55I did not know
27:55my confession
27:56had disgusted him that much.
27:58So much so
27:58that he could not even stand
27:59to see me doing okay.
28:01The next morning,
28:02Ethan brought me
28:02two sausage rolls.
28:03I had just taken them
28:05when Lucas walked over
28:05with a low laugh.
28:08Didn't know you had
28:08such a specific taste, man.
28:11Ethan's face changed.
28:12What do you mean?
28:16Lucas dropped a stack
28:17of printed pictures
28:18on my desk.
28:20For you.
28:21You like this type, right?
28:24Want me to bring you
28:25more tomorrow?
28:28Who the hell said
28:28I liked fat girls?
28:31Oh.
28:32I saw you move seats.
28:33I thought you were into her.
28:35Was I wrong?
28:36Lucas' friends laughed with him.
28:41Ethan cursed under his breath.
28:43Then he moved back
28:44to his old seat
28:44without another word.
28:46From beginning to end,
28:47neither of them looked at me.
28:49But every word was about me.
28:51My eyes fell on the pictures
28:52scattered across the desk.
28:54The sausage rolls
28:55in my hands went cold.
28:57Before Lucas walked away,
28:58Why would you do this?
29:02What?
29:05Are you that desperate
29:06for attention?
29:07Every guy who sits beside you
29:08gets the full treatment.
29:12After what Lucas did,
29:13everything got worse.
29:15One morning,
29:16I found my desk
29:17covered in graffiti.
29:18I kept my head down
29:20and walked to my locker.
29:21The moment I opened it,
29:22a stack of printed pictures
29:23slipped out
29:24and scattered across the floor.
29:26Students slowed down
29:26as they passed
29:27and started laughing.
29:28I crouched down
29:29and picked up the pictures
29:30one by one.
29:32After that,
29:33no one wanted to hang out
29:34with me anymore.
29:35They were afraid
29:36they would become
29:36the next target.
29:37During lunch,
29:38I sat alone under a tree
29:39and took big bites of my food.
29:41Even though,
29:42I never thought about dieting again.
29:44The only time I had tried
29:45to lose weight
29:46was because I liked Lucas
29:47more than food.
29:48Now,
29:49I did not like him anymore.
29:50That Friday,
29:51we had volleyball class.
29:53Halfway through class,
29:54it started pouring.
29:56Everyone ran toward
29:56the gym entrance.
29:57They laughed and screamed
29:58while covering their heads.
29:59I followed behind them.
30:01Before I could reach the door,
30:02several girls started knocking me
30:04back and forth between them.
30:05I lost my balance
30:06and fell hard
30:06onto the wet court.
30:08My kneecap slid out of place.
30:10The pain was so sharp
30:11that I could not sit up.
30:12Then a person stopped beside me.
30:15I grabbed one pant lid
30:16without thinking.
30:17I can't stand.
30:19Can you help me?
30:20It was Lucas.
30:23No.
30:23Bella laughed beside him.
30:25Maybe if you lost weight,
30:27you wouldn't fall so hard.
30:28I was soaked through.
30:30Lucas did not look at me.
30:32He walked past me.
30:33I can't help you.
30:35Rain kept running into my mouth,
30:36but my throat still felt dry.
30:38I could only try
30:39to push myself up.
30:41Near the gym entrance,
30:42I heard people talking.
30:43She doesn't look like
30:43she's faking it.
30:44This is too much.
30:45Should we help her?
30:46You like her?
30:47You go.
30:47Who the hell said
30:48I liked fat girls?
30:50It took me almost
30:51ten minutes to sit up.
30:53I still could not stand.
30:55So I sat quietly in the rain.
30:57I forced myself to think
30:58about what grandma
30:59might make for dinner.
31:00Otherwise,
31:00the pain in my knee
31:01and the eyes behind me
31:02would break me.
31:03In the end,
31:04I got up by myself.
31:06The voices at the gym entrance
31:07never stopped.
31:08I did not dare look back.
31:11I limped to the security office
31:12and called grandma.
31:14After hearing what happened,
31:15grandma decided I needed
31:16to get stronger.
31:17From that day on,
31:18she planned my meals
31:19and made me exercise with her.
31:21If they try to knock you down again,
31:22hit back.
31:27I stayed home for two days
31:29before going back to school.
31:30That morning,
31:31grandma only let me eat
31:32one whole wheat egg sandwich.
31:33I felt miserable.
31:34But soon,
31:35Ms. Carter walked into the classroom.
31:36Behind her stood
31:37a strange transfer student.
31:39Ms. Carter looked around the room.
31:40Her eyes finally stopped at me.
31:42Sebastian Cole,
31:43sit beside Lily.
31:44After that,
31:44she hurried back to the office.
31:46Sebastian sat in the empty spot beside me.
31:48Neither of us seemed interested in talking.
31:50But Blake could never keep his voice down.
31:52Lucas, look.
31:53This guy is weird.
31:54His whole face is covered.
31:56What, is he disfigured?
31:58Probably.
31:59If he looked good,
32:00why would he hide his face?
32:03Ghost boy and chubby Lily.
32:05New couple alert.
32:06Lucas did not react.
32:07He only spun his pen lazily
32:09and said nothing.
32:10For almost a month,
32:11Sebastian and I barely spoke.
32:13I did not want to talk.
32:15I was afraid the same thing
32:16that happened with Ethan
32:17would happen again.
32:18Then one afternoon after class,
32:20I noticed Sebastian
32:20lying across his desk.
32:22After hesitating for a moment,
32:23I walked over.
32:24Do you have a stomach ache?
32:28Yeah.
32:32I'll take you to the nurse's office.
32:33Luckily,
32:34he did not pull away
32:34when I touched him.
32:35He was almost six feet two.
32:37Most of his weight
32:38leaned against me.
32:39Good thing I was sturdy.
32:40Otherwise,
32:41I would not have been able
32:42to hold him up.
32:43The nurse gave him medicine.
32:45Then she asked me
32:46to get him some water.
32:47I ran to buy it.
32:48Then hurried back.
32:49By then,
32:50Sebastian was the only one
32:51left in the nurse's office.
32:52You dislike me that much
32:53and still help me?
32:54That's pretty kind of you, Lily.
32:55I don't dislike you.
32:56I thought you hated me
32:57so I didn't talk to you.
32:58Why would I hate you?
33:00Because I'm fat.
33:01I suddenly felt
33:02he was probably
33:03not disfigured at all.
33:06After that day,
33:07Sebastian and I
33:08slowly got closer,
33:09but he was still strange.
33:11He never took off his mask.
33:12He barely talked to anyone else,
33:13but he always ran with me
33:14after school.
33:15My body changed, too.
33:17Without noticing it,
33:18I had gotten stronger.
33:19Grandma was pleased.
33:21She said I looked healthier now.
33:23I never expected Lucas
33:24to be the first person
33:25at school to notice.
33:26That afternoon,
33:27I sat on the lawn,
33:28finishing the low-fat turkey bowl
33:30Grandma had packed for me.
33:31I had just picked up
33:32my lunchbox
33:33when Lucas suddenly
33:34grabbed my wrist.
33:34You're dieting again?
33:36That's none of your business.
33:38Lucas, let go.
33:39Lucas pulled me
33:39toward the cafeteria.
33:41You get dizzy
33:42when you starve yourself.
33:42Did you forget?
33:43Planning to pass out again?
33:45If you don't let go,
33:46I'll bite you.
33:47You really don't know
33:48who is good to you?
33:50Drop the act.
33:51After that,
33:52I turned and walked
33:53back to the classroom.
33:54Sebastian was lying
33:55across his desk, alone.
33:58Is your stomach hurting again?
34:00Sebastian slowly lifted his head.
34:03Yeah.
34:04I wanted to buy medicine,
34:06but I forgot
34:07where the nurse's office was.
34:08I saw you downstairs
34:09just now,
34:10but you were talking
34:11to some guy,
34:14so I didn't want
34:15to interrupt.
34:17Lily, it hurts.
34:18I'll go buy it
34:19for you right now.
34:19Wait here.
34:21I'll go with you.
34:22That way I can
34:22remember the route.
34:28I held his arm
34:29and let him
34:29hold the nurse's office.
34:31When he went downstairs,
34:32he ran into Lucas.
34:36Sebastian suddenly
34:37rest his balance.
34:37I hurt too much to walk.
34:39Let me rest for a second, okay?
34:40I opened my mouth,
34:41but when he made
34:42another soft sound of pain,
34:43I could not refuse.
34:45Lucas' eyes turned cold
34:47at once.
34:48He had just taken
34:48one step toward us
34:49when Blake and Bella
34:50caught up from behind.
34:51Whoa, Fatty and Ghostboy.
34:54What are you two doing?
34:55What did you call her?
34:57Fatty.
34:58Am I wrong?
34:59Sebastian punched him
35:00so he could react.
35:02I rushed between them
35:03and shot Tyler hard.
35:04Run!
35:07Only when we reached
35:08the nurse's office
35:08did I let out a breath.
35:10Thank you, Sebastian.
35:11But next time,
35:13just ignore him.
35:14He won a Taekwondo
35:15tournament before.
35:16We can't beat him.
35:20But he was bullying you.
35:23Lily,
35:24I can't let anyone
35:25bully you.
35:38You have arrived
35:39at the Punish Dash
35:40order location.
35:47I'm the nightmare
35:48every abusive prick
35:50deserves.
35:56Five years
35:57protecting women
35:58from abusers
35:59and not a single coward
36:00walked away
36:01without shaking,
36:01bleeding,
36:02or pissing himself.
36:03Usually all three.
36:05They call me
36:06the abuse crush.
36:08Hello, Auntie Ella.
36:10I got it.
36:11I'll meet the guy.
36:12Big lawyer, huh?
36:13Relax.
36:13I definitely won't
36:14tell him about my job.
36:16The payment for your
36:17Punish Dash order
36:18has been received.
36:24Damn, bitch!
36:25Who told you
36:26to talk to me like that?
36:27Richard, please stop.
36:29That girl Caroline
36:30you're meeting
36:30is about to arrive.
36:32And you
36:33shut your mouth.
36:35You don't get to
36:36tell me what to do.
36:37Knock it off.
36:39Listen, Hotshot.
36:41Winning Michael Holtz
36:42divorce is your
36:42golden ticket
36:43to the throne
36:44of this legal jungle.
36:45But you better
36:45keep that PR smile
36:46plastered tight.
36:47Don't rock the boat.
36:48So what's Caroline like?
36:49Does she play by the rules?
36:50Doesn't matter.
36:51Because after you
36:52get married
36:52you'll rough her up
36:53but keep her breathing.
36:54laughing.
36:56laughing
37:14Mr. Wilson,
37:16you're even more
37:16handsome in person
37:17than on TV.
37:18I am flattered.
37:19Miss Smith,
37:20your profile says
37:21your job is confidential.
37:22Would you mind
37:22telling us what you do?
37:23I'm an abbess.
37:25I'm a housekeeper.
37:27You know,
37:27the kind who cleans
37:28up the trash.
37:29Wonderful.
37:30Miss Smith is domestic.
37:31Of course.
37:32She believes
37:32in traditional values.
37:34The perfect wife.
37:47Oh, dear.
37:48Thank you.
37:49Is your hand okay?
37:53Oh, my God.
37:54What did I just do?
37:55My hand.
37:55This really hurts.
37:56Are you okay?
37:57I'm so sorry.
37:59My skin's really delicate.
38:00I think I got burned.
38:01Mr. Wilson,
38:02you're so sweet.
38:03Like everyone says,
38:04you'll make
38:05the perfect husband.
38:09Caroline's pedigree
38:10is unremarkable
38:11but she fits
38:12my three P's.
38:13Pleasant,
38:14proper,
38:15pliable.
38:16Oh, Richard.
38:16Weak spines
38:18make such
38:18convenient
38:19stepping stones.
38:22Richard,
38:23if you do
38:24marry Miss Smith,
38:25will you please
38:26treat her better
38:26than you did Daphne?
38:28A spinless woman
38:29like Daphne
38:30doesn't even deserve
38:31the Wilson family name.
38:35Don't you dare
38:36breathe a word outside.
38:37You know the consequences.
38:38I know.
38:39I know.
38:40I know.
38:41I know what I'm doing.
38:42Relax.
38:43I'm not stupid enough
38:44to kill her.
38:45Not like I'm trying
38:46to tank my rising fame.
38:47At least for now.
38:50The car is here.
38:52Dad,
38:52after you.
38:56I gotta go
38:56to the restroom.
38:57I'll be right back.
38:59Such a nuisance.
39:00Hurry up.
39:03So,
39:04what do you think
39:05of Richard?
39:05I heard he's a very
39:06reputable divorce lawyer
39:08who has always stood up
39:09for victims in marriages.
39:10In a way,
39:11he's kind of like me.
39:12But he has a daughter
39:13with his ex-wife Daphne.
39:15I heard his ex-wife
39:16jumped because of
39:16postpartum depression.
39:18Childbirth is brutal.
39:19Lucky me,
39:20I might get a daughter
39:21for free.
39:23If you end up
39:24marrying Richard,
39:25I bet your mom,
39:26may she rest in peace,
39:27would be thrilled.
39:29Also,
39:30he's a proper gentleman.
39:31Once you are married,
39:32please,
39:33Caroline,
39:34tone down the temper.
39:35Keep that street hustle
39:36out of the house.
39:38Street hustle?
39:39That's my job.
39:40Fine,
39:41fine.
39:41But keep work
39:42and personal separate.
39:43Deal?
39:44Okay,
39:44we gotta go.
39:45Hurry up.
39:54Mrs. Wilson,
39:55I thought you left.
39:57Mrs. Smith,
39:58we need to talk.
39:59you're not marrying my son.
40:03Mrs. Wilson?
40:05You think I'm not good enough
40:06for Richard?
40:07That's not what I mean.
40:09You're a sweet girl,
40:10but my son is
40:12hot-tempered.
40:13He's not what he seems.
40:14You two aren't a match.
40:16It's okay.
40:17Mrs. Wilson,
40:18the thing I'm least afraid of
40:19is a bad temper
40:20because
40:21I might be more hot-tempered
40:22than he is.
40:24But...
40:32Mrs. Wilson,
40:34how did you get
40:35that wound on your head?
40:43It's...
40:45It's...
40:45Caroline,
40:46what are you...
40:47Mrs. Wilson!
40:48What a pleasant surprise!
40:49Well,
40:50I gotta go.
40:54What did she say to you?
40:56Mrs. Wilson,
40:57I mean,
40:57she...
41:02She will definitely
41:03be a good mother-in-law.
41:04Harry,
41:04you scared me.
41:05I thought she said
41:06something bad to you.
41:07Auntie,
41:08do you remember
41:09who I am?
41:12No one bullies me.
41:19You don't think
41:20we're moving too fast?
41:22Not at all.
41:23I'm so lucky
41:24to score a wife like you.
41:26I'm so lucky
41:26I'm so lucky
41:28I've already fired the maid.
41:30Once you get that marriage license,
41:31haul her ass back here.
41:32House chores,
41:33learning the rules,
41:35no slacking off.
41:36Got it, Dad.
41:39Caroline,
41:40how about moving
41:41into my place today?
41:42My family can't wait
41:43to meet you.
41:44Well,
41:44as a top divorce lawyer,
41:46he must handle
41:47a lot of domestic violence cases.
41:49Maybe I can get more business.
41:51Okay.
41:52Okay.
42:03Wow, Richard.
42:04What an incredible place.
42:06Excited?
42:07Say hello
42:07to your glorious new chapter.
42:15Richard,
42:15you've got a mansion here,
42:16but where are all the people?
42:18I thought we should get
42:19some alone time,
42:20so I just had them leave.
42:24You're so sweet.
42:25Caroline,
42:26I've handled thousands
42:27of divorces.
42:28I value a healthy marriage.
42:30Happy wife,
42:31happy life.
42:33I will spend the rest
42:34of my life
42:34making you happy.
42:35I believe you.
42:39It's work.
42:39I need to take this.
42:41It's sorry.
42:42Feel free to look
42:43around your new home.
42:50Mr. Holt?
42:52Seriously?
42:53A woman beat you?
42:55That's ridiculous.
42:56No matter what,
42:58make sure you take care of her.
43:05Hey,
43:06it's your last day, sweetheart.
43:08You really don't want
43:08to have a little fun with me?
43:10Because I've been dying
43:11to get my hands on you.
43:14You piece of trash.
43:16apologize to her right now
43:17or I'll send you
43:18straight to hell.
43:18Who the fuck are you?
43:21I'm the new lady
43:22of this house.
43:24I think it's time
43:25to lay down some rules.
43:26Anyone who can't keep it
43:27in their pants
43:27gets cut off.
43:28I'm sorry.
43:29Let me go.
43:30I don't want to die.
43:31Apologize
43:31and promise you'll
43:32never bother her again.
43:33I'm sorry.
43:34I'm sorry.
43:34I swear.
43:35I'll stay out.
43:36Use your sight from now on.
43:39Thank you.
43:40It's nothing.
43:41This place is huge.
43:42Are you really cleaning
43:43it all by yourself?
43:44Yeah, but I'm
43:45out of here today.
43:45Why?
43:46I have to tell you.
43:49Hey.
43:51How's the tour going, babe?
43:52Sir, ma'am.
43:53I should get going.
43:55Good luck.
43:58What does she mean?
43:59What's wrong, babe?
44:01Your guard was harassing
44:02that maid.
44:03Totally unacceptable.
44:03You should punish him.
44:05Oh, really?
44:06How unbelievable.
44:08Come on, I'll take care of it.
44:09Don't let this ruin your mood.
44:11Okay.
44:28Are you okay?
44:31So you're Stella.
44:32What's up there
44:33you wanted to reach?
44:38Don't be nervous.
44:39Is that your mom
44:39in the photo?
44:40She's really pretty.
44:44Stella.
44:53Stella,
44:53this is Miss Smith.
44:55From now on,
44:56she'll be your new mom.
45:00What did I tell you?
45:02Call her mom.
45:04Say it.
45:10Stella!
45:11Who let you get your hands
45:13on this photo?
45:14Spill it out!
45:15Now!
45:17Dad,
45:18I'm sorry.
45:22Come on, Richard.
45:23It's no big deal.
45:27You're right.
45:29Stella,
45:30is your homework done?
45:32No playing outside
45:33until it's finished.
45:38Stella.
45:39Why is she so nervous?
45:41Stella lost her mom
45:42really young.
45:43Every time she sees
45:44a photo of her,
45:44she just breaks down crying.
45:46That's why I try to keep
45:47those pictures away
45:47to protect her.
45:50I'm all she's got now,
45:51you know.
45:52Don't worry, Richard.
45:53I'll take good care of her.
45:56Caroline,
45:56you're so sweet and kind,
45:58and I'm so lucky
45:59to have you.
46:03sweet and kind.
46:04Yeah, right.
46:05Stick around long enough
46:06and you'll see the chaos
46:07behind my curtain.
46:09Hey, Richard.
46:10Stella's all grown up now.
46:12Did her mom start struggling
46:13with depression
46:14after she was born?
46:19Where do you think
46:20you're going?
46:24Why can't you ever learn?
46:27Always thinking
46:27you can run from me.
46:30You'll pay for this, bitch.
46:33Richard?
46:34Richard?
46:35You're already my wife.
46:37No need to keep it
46:37from you anymore.
46:40Are you sure
46:41you're prepared to know?
46:46It's not just the kids.
46:48Her mom's got
46:49a gambling problem.
46:51Racked up crazy debts
46:52and kept hounding her
46:53for cash.
46:54I stepped in
46:55and paid it all off,
46:56but the more I helped,
46:57the more she felt like
46:59she was drowning in guilt.
47:04My fault, really.
47:05I pushed so hard
47:06to fix things,
47:07never stopped to think
47:08how she'd take it.
47:08You've done a great job.
47:10Don't worry.
47:10I'll definitely
47:11take good care of Stella.
47:13But she seems a bit timid.
47:15Maybe she's a little
47:16afraid of you.
47:17Kids are always scared
47:17of their stepmoms.
47:18It'll be okay
47:19once she gets used to you.
47:26Relax, Stella.
47:28Can I play with you
47:28for a little while?
47:31Surprise!
47:32This is for you.
47:34You don't like Barbie dolls?
47:35Well,
47:39how about this?
47:45Can I have it?
47:55Can I have it?
48:00Stella,
48:01if you don't want to call me mom,
48:03you can call me Caroline.
48:05Will you beat me?
48:07Of course not.
48:08Silly,
48:09I've got your back.
48:10I'll make sure nobody
48:11lays a finger on you.
48:16Caroline,
48:17please come with me.
48:24Mrs. Wilson?
48:27Caroline,
48:28thanks for being so nice
48:29to Stella.
48:30You're a good girl.
48:31Caroline,
48:32listen to me.
48:33You'd better leave-
48:34Mom!
48:41Mom,
48:42Caroline,
48:42so you're here.
48:43I've been looking for you
48:44just now.
48:46Oh, right, Caroline.
48:48Everyone in the family
48:49is coming for dinner tonight.
48:50They're all eager
48:51to meet you.
48:53They want to meet me?
48:54Now?
48:56Because I've been praising you
48:57in front of them every day,
48:58so they're all very curious
48:59about you.
49:00But don't be nervous.
49:02Leave it up to me.
49:03Should I be nervous?
49:05Well,
49:06it's actually nothing much.
49:07It's just that
49:07the maid has resigned,
49:09so...
49:10I'll cook.
49:11Caroline needs rest.
49:12Mom,
49:13what are you talking about?
49:14You're my mom.
49:16I'll be in a difficult position
49:17if you cook.
49:21Richard,
49:22but it's Caroline's
49:23first day here.
49:26It doesn't matter.
49:27I can cook.
49:28Honey,
49:29this means a lot to me.
49:30You being this supportive.
49:32Thank you.
49:33Of course.
49:34Of course.
49:46Grace,
49:47it's okay.
49:51What's wrong, Grace?
49:57What's going on?
49:58I just fell down
49:59and hurt myself.
50:01Please don't tell anyone.
50:03Richard and his dad
50:04don't know about it.
50:05I'll go get the first aid kit.
50:08Kind of strange
50:09keeping it in the study.
50:15What's going on?
50:17Please don't tell anyone.
50:19Why does she keep getting hurt?
50:21These don't look like falls.
50:23Something's off.
50:46Richard,
50:47what's this?
50:52Well,
50:52since you caught me,
50:54welcome to hell.
50:58What do you mean?
51:00Maybe
51:01he's the one
51:02who hurts Mrs. Wilson.
51:05Just kidding.
51:06Did I freak you out?
51:10Blame my
51:10idiot friends.
51:11they sent me this
51:13weird crap
51:14as a wedding gift.
51:16Trust me,
51:16I'm as confused
51:17as you are.
51:20You scared me.
51:21I thought you...
51:21You didn't really think
51:22I was into this stuff,
51:23did you?
51:23I understand a little
51:24innocent snooping
51:25to see who your new husband is.
51:26But what are you doing here?
51:31I was looking
51:31for the first aid kit.
51:33Do you know
51:33that your mom is injured?
51:35What?
51:36Is it serious?
51:38He does seem
51:39genuinely concerned
51:39about his mother.
51:41Maybe I'm reading
51:42too much into it?
51:44I just found about it.
51:45I'll go intend
51:46to her wound first.
51:47How did I get
51:48so lucky?
51:56Hey.
51:57I need some background
51:58on Richard's ex-wife,
51:59Daphne Wilson.
52:01Thanks.
52:02I owe you.
52:03I owe you.
52:16This is a family gathering
52:17in high society.
52:19The tension's suffocating.
52:26Here's the soup.
52:28Thank you, Caroline.
52:30Being the wife of a Wilson
52:30comes with expectations.
52:31This hardship?
52:32Barely a nut note.
52:34The woman Richard married
52:35this time at least
52:36seems a bit stronger
52:37than Daphne.
52:37A weak woman like Daphne
52:38could have never stayed
52:39a member of the Wilson family.
52:40Derek is right.
52:42Caroline,
52:43it's your honor
52:43to marry in the Wilson family
52:44and you should consciously
52:46abide our family rules.
52:48Being like Daphne,
52:48just going to fill up,
52:49you can relate
52:49shame to the Wilson family.
52:50You think Daphne's suicide
52:52out of her own will?
52:53Isn't it?
52:54Whether it's you
52:54or Daphne,
52:55once you marry
52:56into the Wilson family,
52:56you should respect the family
52:57and put men first.
53:00And you!
53:01You don't have
53:02an ounce of respect
53:03to even say anything
53:04when you walk in the room?
53:05It's just like your mom.
53:06What a...
53:08What the hell,
53:10you bitch!
53:12You'll find out soon enough.
53:16Huh?
53:30Caroline?
53:31Caroline?
53:33Caroline?
53:35Sorry.
53:36I was distracted just now.
53:39Caroline,
53:39Uncle David
53:40is a little old school.
53:41Don't take it to heart.
53:42Richard,
53:43your little bride
53:44needs to learn respect.
53:45Teach her,
53:46or I will.
53:47You want to teach me, huh?
53:48Wilson rules!
53:49No backtalk!
53:50No cutting in!
53:51What's that insolent look?
53:53You married into the Wilsons.
53:55Know your place.
53:56A woman's duty is silence.
54:03What are you doing?
54:05I'm sorry, Uncle David.
54:07Caroline's still young.
54:07I'll talk to her
54:08and make sure
54:09this doesn't happen again.
54:11Caroline,
54:11for my sake,
54:12please stop talking.
54:13We need to respect the rules.
54:16Caroline, chill.
54:17You're the perfect wife.
54:18You shouldn't be mad.
54:20You're right.
54:21We should respect the rules.
54:26But save it.
54:27I eat rules for breakfast.
54:28You want to tame me?
54:29good fucking luck.
54:32You want rules?
54:33I'll give you rules.
54:35First lesson.
54:36I am the goddamn law now.
54:51Caroline,
54:52what are you doing?
54:52Richard,
54:53are you just gonna let your wife
54:54talk to us like this?
54:55I'm sorry, Uncle David.
54:57What kind of classless thug
54:58starts a fight
54:59at a family dinner?
55:00Get the hell out!
55:10Derek,
55:11don't be mad.
55:12David and Jennifer
55:13are both here today.
55:13They're all watching.
55:15We can't look like
55:16a hot mess right now.
55:17But-
55:17Shut up!
55:18This is on you!
55:19You didn't raise her right!
55:21You've broken the family rules!
55:22Now face the punishments!
55:25Punishment?
55:26What punishment?
55:29Grandpa, please!
55:30Get over here!
55:33Grandma, you can't go over there.
55:35Stella, don't be afraid.
55:37Stay here.
55:44Oh!
55:56So this is what it's for.
55:59How dare you, Blab!
56:00You violated family rules!
56:03Oh!
56:05Oh!
56:09Oh!
56:16Stop it!
56:17You asshole!
56:20Shut up!
56:21Grace got in trouble
56:22because of you!
56:23Caroline, stop!
56:25If you do this,
56:25my mom will just suffer more!
56:26Richard,
56:27this is your mother!
56:28What happened to the
56:29ethical divorce lawyer
56:30who only helps victims?
56:31What your dad is doing
56:32is domestic violence!
56:33She's my mother,
56:34but she's also a part
56:35of this family.
56:35If she couldn't step up
56:36as a wife,
56:37she's got to answer for it!
56:41Caroline, let's be real.
56:42None of this would have happened
56:44if you hadn't acted out.
56:45Don't you see
56:46that this is your fault?
56:47Wow, are you gaslighting me?
56:48Get out of my face
56:49and stop what he's doing to her!
56:51How dare you!
56:57Derek, this is how
56:58you run a household?
56:59She's made our family
57:00a total circus!
57:02Caroline, can you stop
57:03them hitting my grandma?
57:06Okay, I'll stop them
57:07right now.
57:08I'll stop them
57:15I'll stop them
57:19I'll stop them
57:21I'll stop them
57:25I'll stop them
57:28I'll stop them
57:28I'll stop them
57:28I'll stop them
57:44C'est parti.
