00:00:00Para dar su hijo un niño normal, una madre decidió dejar su estatuto de su estatuto de la millonaria,

00:00:05buriendo su casa underground y hacer que él viviera en una casa dilapidada.

00:00:09Después de su hijo fallece, ella regresaría a su hoguera.

00:00:13El niño estudió todo el día para escapar de la pobreza.

00:00:1620 años después, el niño se convirtió el mundo más rico.

00:00:20Un día, después de cumplir 5 años de trabajo de trabajo en África,

00:00:24él estaba preparando para volver a casa y proponer a su hija.

00:00:27Pero, una hermosa mujer se presentó a él y preguntó a su hija.

00:00:31Oh wow, that's... pretty cool.

00:00:34He probably didn't make a cent doing that,

00:00:36but the way he talks about it, like it mattered,

00:00:39he's unlike any other man I've ever met.

00:00:42I'm Anya, by the way.

00:00:44Arthur.

00:00:46Well, Arthur, this might sound totally insane, but...

00:00:52Would you mind doing me a favor?

00:00:54What favor?

00:00:55Let me introduce myself properly.

00:00:57I'm the CEO of Throne Tech,

00:00:59the heiress to Throne's fortune.

00:01:00I own 5 properties and 2 private estates.

00:01:03Annual income, $1 billion.

00:01:05And...

00:01:07I want you to be my husband.

00:01:09What?

00:01:10I mean, a fake marriage.

00:01:12Just for a year.

00:01:13I need someone to play my husband,

00:01:15and you just feel like the right man for me.

00:01:18Is that a joke?

00:01:19I'm serious.

00:01:20You can trust me.

00:01:21Google me, you'll see that I have no scandals.

00:01:22No addictions.

00:01:23Nothing shady in my past.

00:01:25If you agree, we can sign the paperwork today.

00:01:27And...

00:01:28I'll offer $100,000 a month,

00:01:29plus a waterfront con in Midtown.

00:01:31In your name only.

00:01:34Tempting.

00:01:35But you have picked the wrong man.

00:01:38Already taken.

00:01:39I'm flying back to get married.

00:01:41Oh.

00:01:42I did not see that coming.

00:01:44I...

00:01:44Sorry.

00:01:47So that is it.

00:01:48Guess I just have to suck it up.

00:01:50You do not seem that helpless to me.

00:01:53Hm?

00:01:56Your AI subsidiary,

00:01:58under Throne Tech,

00:01:59it has got potential.

00:02:00The Titan Group will be interested.

00:02:02But if that is your pitch deck,

00:02:04to win them over,

00:02:06you are toast.

00:02:08Really?

00:02:09You might be a nice guy,

00:02:10but you don't know a thing

00:02:11about how the business world works.

00:02:15We might not be getting married,

00:02:16but I can still help you.

00:02:17Hey, what are you doing?

00:02:19Fixing your pitch.

00:02:20You're asking for $100 million?

00:02:22Try $100 billion.

00:02:23Excuse me?

00:02:25What?

00:02:27There.

00:02:28Done.

00:02:29What the hell did you just do?

00:02:31You sent that?

00:02:32You actually sent it?

00:02:34You were under-saying yourself.

00:02:35You hijacked my pitch!

00:02:37Do you have any idea

00:02:38what you've just done?

00:02:39I saved your pitch.

00:02:42Saved?

00:02:42You've ruined it!

00:02:51Did you just touch me?

00:02:54It was an accident.

00:02:56Turbulity.

00:02:57I was trying to help.

00:02:58Oh, you've done enough to help.

00:03:01Sir?

00:03:02Ma'am?

00:03:02Is everything all right?

00:03:03We're good.

00:03:04She just scored

00:03:05a $100 billion investment.

00:03:06She's a bit emotional.

00:03:08Emotional?

00:03:10Well, congratulations.

00:03:13Trust me.

00:03:14The Titan Group

00:03:15doesn't go for small gains.

00:03:17Asking for $100 million?

00:03:18That's an insult.

00:03:19$100 billion?

00:03:20That's where the conversation starts.

00:03:22You want to win them over?

00:03:23You need to think bigger.

00:03:25Did you seriously just say that?

00:03:27You're welcome.

00:03:28Great.

00:03:29First you messed with my file.

00:03:30Then you humiliated me in public?

00:03:32Congratulations!

00:03:33You're officially

00:03:33the most infuriating man

00:03:35I've ever met.

00:03:35Lucky we're not getting married, huh?

00:03:37This isn't over.

00:03:49Help her land

00:03:50a billion-dollar deal

00:03:50and not even a thank you?

00:03:53Please.

00:03:54Serena would never.

00:03:58Five years apart

00:03:59she must be surprised

00:04:00when he sees me.

00:04:02You sure about this?

00:04:03Africa's far.

00:04:04It's not just a trip.

00:04:05I'm going to change

00:04:06the world, Serena.

00:04:07You always knew

00:04:08that was the dream.

00:04:12One more thing

00:04:13before I go.

00:04:22Serena Lee,

00:04:24will you marry me?

00:04:26Yes.

00:04:34Let's get married

00:04:35when I get back.

00:04:39A two-million-dollar necklace.

00:04:41The perfect gift

00:04:42for her big day.

00:04:43I hope she'll like it.

00:04:51My girl, look at this.

00:04:53An entire party

00:04:54just for you.

00:04:55Oh, Throne Tech

00:04:56doesn't do this

00:04:56for just anyone.

00:04:58We've officially made it.

00:04:59It's just the beginning, Mom.

00:05:00You know,

00:05:01my dream is to become

00:05:01someone like Anya Throne,

00:05:02the CEO.

00:05:03But she's a mystery.

00:05:05Never appears in public.

00:05:11Assuming I'll meet her today.

00:05:17After all these years

00:05:19of my funding,

00:05:20Serena's finally made it.

00:05:21A PhD.

00:05:23Partner at Throne Tech.

00:05:24Time to let her know

00:05:25that I'm the CEO

00:05:27of Titan Group

00:05:27and start our sweet life.

00:05:36Is that Arthur?

00:05:38Isn't he begging

00:05:38for life abroad?

00:05:39What the hell

00:05:39is he doing here?

00:05:44Serena,

00:05:45congratulations.

00:05:47Arthur?

00:05:49I heard about the offer.

00:05:51Thought I'd surprise you.

00:05:52Why are you here?

00:05:54I flew back.

00:05:55For you.

00:05:56Let me guess.

00:05:57You heard about

00:05:58her throne offer,

00:05:59the salary,

00:06:01and you decided

00:06:01to claw your way back?

00:06:03What?

00:06:04Don't act surprised.

00:06:06Five years you vanished.

00:06:07The second she makes partner,

00:06:08you show up

00:06:09with discount flowers

00:06:10and a name

00:06:11that means nothing.

00:06:12You shouldn't have come,

00:06:13Arthur.

00:06:14This whatever we were,

00:06:16it's over.

00:06:16Let's break up.

00:06:17But we spent seven years

00:06:19building towards this.

00:06:20We are supposed

00:06:21to get married.

00:06:22You said you loved me.

00:06:24You thought Serena

00:06:24would love you?

00:06:25Don't be absurd.

00:06:26My daughter has a PhD.

00:06:28She's the youngest partner

00:06:29at Throne Tech,

00:06:30pulling in 30 million a year,

00:06:31and you?

00:06:31You vanished to Africa

00:06:33and worked there

00:06:34as a builder?

00:06:34Do you really think

00:06:35that makes you worthy of her?

00:06:37My mom is right.

00:06:38We belong to different worlds now.

00:06:40I can't marry someone like you.

00:06:42No.

00:06:53Someone like me?

00:06:55Look around.

00:06:56This is the party

00:06:57Throne Tech threw for me.

00:06:59These people?

00:07:00Legacy investors.

00:07:02Real powers.

00:07:03And you think

00:07:04I could introduce them

00:07:05to an embarrassment

00:07:05as my fiancé?

00:07:07I'm an embarrassment?

00:07:12So that's what this did to you.

00:07:14One job offer

00:07:15from Throne Tech

00:07:16and you think

00:07:18you're out of my league.

00:07:19Did you know, Serena?

00:07:22To me,

00:07:23Throne Tech

00:07:23is just a small fish.

00:07:25You arrogant

00:07:26little cockroach!

00:07:27How dare you look down

00:07:28on the top firm

00:07:28in this country!

00:07:29You want to know

00:07:30why Throne Tech

00:07:30gave you that offer?

00:07:31Because someone vouched for you.

00:07:33Someone they'd never

00:07:34dare ignore.

00:07:35And that someone

00:07:37was me.

00:07:39I'm sorry, what?

00:07:41Confirmed?

00:07:42Are you sure?

00:07:44Madam,

00:07:45you're not going

00:07:45to believe this.

00:07:46The Titan Group

00:07:47just approved

00:07:48a direct investment

00:07:49in us.

00:07:50They what?

00:07:52One.

00:07:53Hundred.

00:07:54Billion dollars.

00:07:55What?

00:07:56It's Mr. Storm's move.

00:07:57You know the ghost chairman

00:07:58who runs the Titan Group?

00:08:00It's his first formal

00:08:00return to the States.

00:08:01And we're his first target.

00:08:03We got it.

00:08:03A hundred billion!

00:08:07There.

00:08:08Done.

00:08:10He was right.

00:08:11It's one hundred billion.

00:08:15Parker.

00:08:17Find him.

00:08:18Find who?

00:08:19The man who's

00:08:20sitting next to me

00:08:20on the Nairobi flight.

00:08:22Arthur.

00:08:23I don't care

00:08:24what it takes.

00:08:25Find him.

00:08:27Understood.

00:08:27But

00:08:29what do you want

00:08:30with him?

00:08:30I'm going to marry him.

00:08:32Wait.

00:08:32What?

00:08:34I've never seen

00:08:35an incredible man

00:08:35like him before.

00:08:37He is the one I want.

00:08:38You self-importance

00:08:40little shit.

00:08:40Who the hell

00:08:41do you think you are?

00:08:42I get it, Arthur.

00:08:43You're not upset

00:08:43about the breakup.

00:08:44You're just pissed off

00:08:45at all the money

00:08:46you poured into me.

00:08:47Just name your number.

00:08:48I'll pay you off.

00:08:49And then we're done.

00:08:50For good.

00:08:51Is that what you think?

00:08:52That I'm here

00:08:53chasing the money

00:08:53I gave you?

00:08:54Let's settle up.

00:08:55How about

00:08:56a hundred grand?

00:08:57Two hundred thousand?

00:08:59Serena.

00:09:00Three hundred thousand dollars.

00:09:01That's more than

00:09:01you've ever seen.

00:09:02Three hundred thousand dollars.

00:09:04That's more than

00:09:04you've ever seen.

00:09:05You still think

00:09:06I came here for money?

00:09:07Take it and get out of here.

00:09:08My daughter should have

00:09:09dumped you ages ago.

00:09:10You've got no house,

00:09:11no car,

00:09:12no savings.

00:09:13You can't even get

00:09:13a decent job.

00:09:14You're a lost cause.

00:09:15Is that what you think of me?

00:09:17For the sake of

00:09:17our seven years together,

00:09:18don't embarrass yourself

00:09:19even more.

00:09:20Just take the money

00:09:20and leave.

00:09:21My daughter's done with you.

00:09:23Can't you get that

00:09:24through your thick head?

00:09:26He's not worth your time.

00:09:30Oh, where's Victor?

00:09:31Didn't he say

00:09:32he was coming tonight?

00:09:34Yeah, said he had

00:09:35something to handle first.

00:09:36Should be here soon.

00:09:37Victor?

00:09:38Victor, son of James West.

00:09:41Vice Chair of Throne Tech.

00:09:43Practically next in line

00:09:44after Anya Throne.

00:09:47Only someone like him

00:09:48is a match for my daughter.

00:09:50Rich, charming,

00:09:52well-educated.

00:09:53And you?

00:09:54You're a penniless dropout.

00:09:56You're just a misstep

00:09:57she should have never taken.

00:09:58Arthur,

00:09:59Victor's on his way.

00:10:00You should leave.

00:10:02Trust me.

00:10:03You don't want to be here

00:10:05when he walks in.

00:10:06Because the moment you see him,

00:10:08you'll be ashamed of yourself.

00:10:10Now I see it.

00:10:11You didn't just

00:10:12break up with me

00:10:13because of the job.

00:10:14It was because of him.

00:10:16Victor.

00:10:16At least with him,

00:10:18I can build something bigger.

00:10:19Really?

00:10:20And you're so sure

00:10:21I couldn't help you

00:10:22build something better

00:10:23than anything he could?

00:10:24You?

00:10:25Please.

00:10:27So,

00:10:28you actually think

00:10:29you're better than me?

00:10:38You're better than me?

00:10:40Victor!

00:10:41Victor!

00:10:42My love,

00:10:42you're here!

00:10:43Let me guess.

00:10:45You're Arthur?

00:10:46Serena's ex-boyfriend?

00:10:48You look exactly

00:10:48how I pictured.

00:10:49Cheap suit,

00:10:50basic face,

00:10:52still clinging

00:10:53to the woman

00:10:53who left you

00:10:54behind like

00:10:55yesterday's trash.

00:10:56Oh,

00:10:57don't mind him.

00:10:58He never deserved

00:10:58to be with Serena.

00:11:00Just a pathetic shadow

00:11:01tagging along.

00:11:02So,

00:11:03you seriously thought

00:11:04you could compete with me?

00:11:06I'm Victor West,

00:11:08son of James West,

00:11:09vice chair of throne tech.

00:11:11And you?

00:11:12You're not even worth

00:11:12the dirt under my shoes.

00:11:14You're right,

00:11:14because unlike you,

00:11:16I don't need to cling

00:11:16to daddy's title to matter.

00:11:18Excuse me?

00:11:18A piece of trash

00:11:20like you

00:11:20dares to talk back?

00:11:21Get out.

00:11:22Now,

00:11:23before I have security

00:11:24drag you out

00:11:25like the street rat you are.

00:11:26Exactly.

00:11:27This is a ceremony

00:11:28for elites,

00:11:30not beggars.

00:11:32What the hell

00:11:33is going on here?

00:11:34Victor,

00:11:35is everything alright?

00:11:36Why don't you ask him?

00:11:38He got dumped

00:11:38by Serena,

00:11:39and now he's

00:11:40crashing her party.

00:11:41Dr. Lee

00:11:42is our new partner,

00:11:43handpicked

00:11:44by Miss Throne herself.

00:11:45Whatever this is,

00:11:46you're way out of line.

00:11:47Exactly.

00:11:48Look around.

00:11:49These aren't just

00:11:50normal guests,

00:11:51Mr. Cooper.

00:11:52This is Throne Tech's

00:11:54A-team.

00:11:54Top executives,

00:11:55professionals,

00:11:56the people who run

00:11:57this city.

00:11:58And then there's him.

00:11:59Some college dropout

00:12:00who thinks moving bricks

00:12:02and nannying kids

00:12:03in Africa is a career.

00:12:04I was running a charity.

00:12:06Oh?

00:12:07So that's what we're

00:12:08calling unemployment now?

00:12:09Charity?

00:12:10Boy,

00:12:10just say you were broke

00:12:11and too proud

00:12:12to get a real job.

00:12:13We all know why he's here.

00:12:15Groveling to my daughter,

00:12:16hoping she will drag him

00:12:17out of the gutter

00:12:18so he wants to be

00:12:18a kept man and fails.

00:12:20Pathetic.

00:12:21An all-time loser

00:12:22dumped by his genius girlfriend.

00:12:24He should have seen that coming.

00:12:26You hear that?

00:12:27This is reality.

00:12:29My daughter,

00:12:29a PhD,

00:12:30a future partner,

00:12:31a successful,

00:12:32a successful,

00:12:32stunning woman.

00:12:33You?

00:12:34Just the mud on her heels.

00:12:45Now crawl back to the shack

00:12:46you came from.

00:12:47Your fairy tale is over!

00:12:49Arthur,

00:12:50a man can be broke

00:12:51or uneducated,

00:12:52but delusional,

00:12:53that's where I draw the line.

00:12:54No matter what you tell yourself,

00:12:56I would never marry you.

00:12:58Funny.

00:12:59You want to know

00:13:00my biggest mistake,

00:13:01Serena?

00:13:01Believing in you.

00:13:02Seven years of

00:13:03unconditional support,

00:13:04wiring money whenever you need

00:13:05to pay rent or tuition.

00:13:07I made you.

00:13:08And this is how you repay me?

00:13:09Don't twist it!

00:13:10I didn't force you

00:13:10to do any of this!

00:13:11I don't need to twist

00:13:13anything.

00:13:14I bank-raid your PhD,

00:13:16helped land your offer

00:13:17at ThroneTech,

00:13:17and you dropped me

00:13:19the second you made it upstairs.

00:13:21Don't credit yourself

00:13:22for my achievement.

00:13:23I earned all these

00:13:24by myself.

00:13:25I'm smart.

00:13:26I worked hard.

00:13:27I could have made it

00:13:28with or without you.

00:13:29No.

00:13:30You won't.

00:13:31You'll never know

00:13:32what you've lost.

00:13:33I bought this for you.

00:13:39But you don't deserve it.

00:13:44We're done.

00:13:46Oh, please.

00:13:47You think a fake diamond

00:13:48necklace could buy

00:13:49my daughter's heart?

00:13:50How much did you spend

00:13:51on this trash?

00:13:52$20?

00:13:53$50?

00:13:54Babe,

00:13:55tell him how much

00:13:56the necklace I bought you

00:13:56is worth.

00:13:58$70,000.

00:13:59My gift for you

00:14:00was auctioned

00:14:01for $2,000,000.

00:14:02But you throw it away

00:14:03for him and his

00:14:04second-rate jewels.

00:14:05I'm so tired

00:14:06of your bullshit!

00:14:07You need a wake-up call!

00:14:13He's...

00:14:16He's lost it!

00:14:18He attacked my boyfriend!

00:14:19Security!

00:14:20Get him out!

00:14:20That's enough,

00:14:21young man.

00:14:22Dr. Lee's an asset

00:14:23to Throne Tech

00:14:24and this is her party.

00:14:25She says you're out.

00:14:27You're out!

00:14:28Now get lost!

00:14:32We found Arthur, madam.

00:14:34Where?

00:14:35He's inside Throne HQ

00:14:36at Dr. Lee's

00:14:37welcome party.

00:14:38Sounds like

00:14:39things are getting ugly.

00:14:41Dr. Lee?

00:14:43Quick!

00:14:44Head to the company now.

00:14:45Yes, madam.

00:14:47What are you waiting for, sucker?

00:14:49Doors that way.

00:14:50Just leave, Arthur,

00:14:51before this gets worse for you.

00:14:52Worse?

00:14:53How?

00:14:55Because I dared

00:14:56to stand where I don't belong?

00:14:57You want to be

00:14:57a laughingstock?

00:14:58Fine.

00:14:59But don't expect me

00:15:00to save you

00:15:01when this all blows up

00:15:01in your face.

00:15:02Save me?

00:15:03That's rich.

00:15:04You don't have that power.

00:15:05You never did.

00:15:06You mess with me,

00:15:07you mess with the Throne family.

00:15:09Pisans like you

00:15:10can't afford the price.

00:15:11Final warning.

00:15:12Walk out on your own

00:15:13or I'll have security

00:15:13drag you out.

00:15:14Go ahead.

00:15:15Call your guards.

00:15:16But let's be clear.

00:15:17I walked into this building

00:15:18because I have every right

00:15:19to be here.

00:15:20And none of you

00:15:20has the power

00:15:21to push me out.

00:15:22Not even Anya Thorne herself.

00:15:25Faster!

00:15:26I don't care what it takes.

00:15:27Get me to him, now!

00:15:29Yes, madam.

00:15:31Do you have any idea

00:15:32what the name

00:15:33Anya Throne means?

00:15:34Wow.

00:15:35You're even dumber

00:15:35than I thought.

00:15:36You just insulted

00:15:37the woman who built

00:15:38this empire.

00:15:39Even my father

00:15:40wouldn't dare challenge her.

00:15:41But you?

00:15:42You're so done.

00:15:43So,

00:15:44in your world,

00:15:45Anya Thorne

00:15:45might be an untouchable goddess.

00:15:47But in mine,

00:15:48she's just a woman

00:15:49with some talent.

00:15:50I'd be more worried

00:15:51if I were you.

00:15:52Because you tried

00:15:52to put a hand on me,

00:15:53she might have

00:15:54a bigger problem with you.

00:15:55You must have a death wish.

00:15:56Arthur,

00:15:57I get that the breakup hurt.

00:15:58But now,

00:15:59you're spiraling.

00:16:00Disrespecting Lady Throne

00:16:01like that,

00:16:02I was actually

00:16:02going to get you

00:16:03a janitor job here.

00:16:04But after this,

00:16:05you're not even worth that.

00:16:07You were going to

00:16:07recommend me

00:16:08for a janitor position?

00:16:10Do you know

00:16:10how competitive it is

00:16:11just to work here?

00:16:12You should be grateful.

00:16:14Even our security guards

00:16:15have degrees.

00:16:17And you didn't

00:16:17even finish years.

00:16:18I don't need a degree

00:16:19to prove myself.

00:16:20My achievement

00:16:21speaks for itself.

00:16:22That's how real business works.

00:16:23Clearly,

00:16:24it's beyond your imagination.

00:16:26You're talking nonsense again.

00:16:27After everything happens today,

00:16:28there's no place

00:16:29for you in Throne Tech.

00:16:30You blew your only chance

00:16:31to fix your sore life.

00:16:32I never needed

00:16:33your recommendation.

00:16:34And as for whether

00:16:35Throne Tech

00:16:36has a place for me,

00:16:38why don't you go

00:16:39ask Annie a thorn yourself?

00:16:50Where is Arthur?

00:16:52Conference hall.

00:16:52It's tense.

00:16:53From what I heard,

00:16:54he and Serena Lee

00:16:55were involved.

00:16:56She dumped him.

00:16:58They broke up?

00:17:00Well, that saves me

00:17:01the trouble of stealing

00:17:02someone's fiancé.

00:17:05What's your goal here, Arthur?

00:17:06Seriously?

00:17:07Trying to crash

00:17:08and burn in public?

00:17:09I'll tell you what it is.

00:17:11He couldn't have you,

00:17:12so now he wants

00:17:13to drag you down

00:17:14with him.

00:17:15Ugh.

00:17:16Pathetic ex-revenge.

00:17:17Such a petty man.

00:17:18Don't worry, Serena.

00:17:20I've got you.

00:17:21Victor's father

00:17:21is the vice chair.

00:17:23With their support,

00:17:24whatever stunt

00:17:25he's pulling ends.

00:17:26Trust me.

00:17:27Once Lady Throne shows up,

00:17:29he's got maybe

00:17:30five minutes left.

00:17:31I can't believe

00:17:32how dumb you are, Arthur.

00:17:34No wonder you achieved

00:17:35nothing in our

00:17:35seven years together.

00:17:36I wasted so much

00:17:38time on you.

00:17:39Honestly,

00:17:40leaving you was

00:17:40the best decision

00:17:41I've ever made.

00:17:43Was it?

00:17:43Because when the truth

00:17:45comes out,

00:17:45you'll realize

00:17:47it was the worst

00:17:48mistake of your life.

00:17:54What?

00:17:56Lady Throne

00:17:56just arrived?

00:17:57Lady Throne,

00:17:59she came straight

00:17:59from the airport.

00:18:00She's in the lobby now.

00:18:01Wait,

00:18:02she actually came?

00:18:04Oh my god!

00:18:05She came to support

00:18:06Serena!

00:18:07You hear that?

00:18:08Anya Throne is here

00:18:09for my daughter!

00:18:11My daughter

00:18:11is the future

00:18:12of Throne Tech!

00:18:13This is it.

00:18:15We need to take out

00:18:16this human trash

00:18:17before Lady Throne arrives.

00:18:19He's literally making

00:18:20the room smell cheap.

00:18:21Hear that, dumbass?

00:18:23Throne Tech

00:18:24doesn't take in strays.

00:18:27Get out

00:18:28while you still

00:18:29have legs to walk on.

00:18:33Here's your last chance.

00:18:35Half a million dollars.

00:18:36Half a million?

00:18:37You're flattering him!

00:18:39It's worth it

00:18:39to keep him

00:18:40from ruining my night.

00:18:41Take the money, Arthur.

00:18:43Disappear.

00:18:44That's more than you'll see

00:18:45in ten lifetimes.

00:18:47Be smart.

00:18:49Take it

00:18:49and vanish.

00:18:50You talk a lot

00:18:51about power, Serena.

00:18:58But when you learn

00:18:59who I am...

00:19:11you'll be begging me

00:19:12for mercy.

00:19:13What the hell?

00:19:14You ungrateful bastard!

00:19:16You dare humiliate me?

00:19:17You really think

00:19:18you're someone now?

00:19:20Someone's gonna

00:19:20change everything?

00:19:24Then, make your little announcement.

00:19:28But if it's bullshit,

00:19:30you'll be crawling out of here

00:19:31kissing every shoe

00:19:32in this room.

00:19:33Oh, come on!

00:19:34This low-status nobody

00:19:36doesn't even deserve

00:19:37to kiss anyone's shoes here.

00:19:47He's my husband.

00:19:50Is that status

00:19:51high enough for you?

00:19:58You let them do this to you?

00:19:59It's okay.

00:20:00They went rogue.

00:20:01I didn't.

00:20:02Real men don't hit women.

00:20:04Also,

00:20:05I'm your husband?

00:20:07I don't recall saying yes

00:20:08to your little proposal

00:20:09on the plane.

00:20:10I never regret

00:20:11the words I mean.

00:20:22So now,

00:20:24let me take out the trash.

00:20:31Who the hell are you

00:20:32storming in like this?

00:20:33Did you not hear me

00:20:34the first time?

00:20:35I'm Arthur's wife.

00:20:37This man right here,

00:20:38he's my husband.

00:20:43Wait, what?

00:20:45Lady Throne?

00:20:46Mary?

00:20:47But she's never,

00:20:48she's never show interest

00:20:49in any men.

00:20:50Oh, God.

00:20:51I'm dead.

00:20:52I'm so dead.

00:21:00Callum had one arm around Jenna

00:21:02as he sealed me inside.

00:21:04He left me there

00:21:05to die in the dark,

00:21:06surrounded by serpents,

00:21:07and he never looked back.

00:21:08The pain was beyond anything

00:21:10I had words for.

00:21:11It felt like I was being

00:21:11torn apart from the inside out,

00:21:13piece by piece,

00:21:13until even screaming

00:21:14became impossible.

00:21:15When I died,

00:21:16I drifted in silver light,

00:21:17endless,

00:21:18cold,

00:21:18and silent.

00:21:19There was nothing left of me

00:21:20but a thin thread of soul,

00:21:21too broken even to cry.

00:21:22Then a voice fell through the dark

00:21:24like a blade through silk,

00:21:25clear,

00:21:25ancient,

00:21:25and completely without warmth.

00:21:26Child footwear,

00:21:28you died badly.

00:21:30What I offer is not mercy.

00:21:32It is a contract.

00:21:33Give me something,

00:21:35and I will give you what you want.

00:21:37I'll give up my face,

00:21:38my beauty in this life,

00:21:40all of it.

00:21:40In exchange,

00:21:41I want the Lunar Hunt Covenant,

00:21:42the Silver Sight,

00:21:43and one more life.

00:21:44Do you understand what it means

00:21:45to give up your face?

00:21:46I do.

00:21:47Last time,

00:21:48my beauty made it easy

00:21:48for them to use me.

00:21:49I don't need anyone

00:21:50to love my face.

00:21:51I just need to see clearly.

00:21:53Silver light

00:21:53crapped through me like lightning,

00:21:55and I was thrown back

00:21:56into the world of the living.

00:21:57When I opened my eyes,

00:21:58the hissing was gone.

00:21:59The air smelled of incense.

00:22:01I raised a hand to my face

00:22:02and felt it.

00:22:02A scar across my cheek,

00:22:04faint silver light

00:22:05pulsing beneath it

00:22:05like a wire.

00:22:06It was the mark of the covenant,

00:22:07the price Artemis

00:22:08had carved into my skin.

00:22:09I was back.

00:22:10Back to the morning

00:22:11Eleanor Hargreff came to beg.

00:22:13I stood in front of the mirror

00:22:14and traced the scar

00:22:15with my fingers.

00:22:16Then I smiled,

00:22:17but there was nothing warm

00:22:18left in it.

00:22:20I did not come back

00:22:21to love him.

00:22:21I came back from hell

00:22:23to collect what they owed me,

00:22:24one debt at a time.

00:22:28Rowena, please!

00:22:29I'm begging you!

00:22:31You have to save Callum!

00:22:32The old woman dropped

00:22:33to her knees in front of me,

00:22:34clutching the hem of my dress

00:22:35with both hands

00:22:35and crying like

00:22:36she had nothing left.

00:22:37The death mark

00:22:38carved into Callum's forehead

00:22:40was the final outbreak

00:22:41of decades of serpent resentment

00:22:42buried beneath the Hargroh state.

00:22:44As long as it stayed on him,

00:22:46the curse would keep spreading,

00:22:47and every Hargroh tied to this land

00:22:49by blood would carry

00:22:50the same death sentence.

00:22:52Only a Whitmore

00:22:53could even see the mark.

00:22:55Only a Whitmore

00:22:55could remove it.

00:22:56They needed me.

00:22:58That was a fact.

00:22:59But the only reason

00:23:00I was here

00:23:00was to take back

00:23:01what the Hargrohs

00:23:02stole from us,

00:23:03the silver arrow of Whitmore.

00:23:04I stood over Eleanor,

00:23:05looking down

00:23:06at her shaking shoulders,

00:23:07and all I could think of

00:23:08was how she used

00:23:08to call me sweetheart

00:23:09while she watched

00:23:09the flames swallow me alive.

00:23:11I slowly pulled

00:23:12my skirt out of her grip.

00:23:13I can't break the Hargroh curse.

00:23:14There was not a single trace

00:23:15of emotion in my voice.

00:23:16I did not owe her that much.

00:23:18Eleanor nor froze.

00:23:19The invitation in her hands

00:23:20crumbled at the edges.

00:23:21Then Callum walked in

00:23:21from the hallway.

00:23:22He was younger than I remembered,

00:23:23sharper and more arrogant,

00:23:24with all that ugly pride

00:23:25still sitting right on the surface.

00:23:26His eyes swept over me

00:23:27and stopped on the scar

00:23:28crossing my face.

00:23:29For one second,

00:23:30he went still.

00:23:31The scar was silver,

00:23:32winding across half my cheek

00:23:33and glowing faintly

00:23:34in the morning light.

00:23:35It did not look like

00:23:35an ordinary wound.

00:23:36It looked like something ancient

00:23:38had pressed itself into my skin

00:23:39and left its mark there.

00:23:40His disgust was almost

00:23:41impossible to miss.

00:23:42He turned his face away slightly

00:23:43like he could barely stand

00:23:44to look at it.

00:23:45I noticed.

00:23:45I said nothing.

00:23:47In my past life,

00:23:48I had walked through

00:23:48this same door

00:23:49with an untouched face

00:23:50and he had smiled at me

00:23:50so beautifully.

00:23:51Every warm word

00:23:52had been perfectly calculated.

00:23:54Now that I had a scar,

00:23:55the mask slipped at once.

00:23:56That told me everything.

00:23:58He did not need a person.

00:23:59He needed a tool

00:24:00and apparently he preferred

00:24:02his tools pretty.

00:24:03Callum stepped closer,

00:24:04his voice sharp with disbelief.

00:24:05What the hell

00:24:06is that supposed to mean?

00:24:07We came here in good faith

00:24:09and you won't even

00:24:09give us a reason?

00:24:10You're telling me

00:24:11one curse is too much

00:24:12for a Whitmore?

00:24:13He moved into my space

00:24:14like he was used to people

00:24:15backing down when he did.

00:24:16I only looked at him.

00:24:18Go ahead.

00:24:19Look down on me, Callum.

00:24:21You have no idea

00:24:22that the mark on your forehead

00:24:23is getting darker every day

00:24:24and the only person

00:24:25in this entire world

00:24:26who can see it,

00:24:27the only one

00:24:28who can take it off you

00:24:29is standing right in front of you

00:24:30while you make that face.

00:24:31Eleanor started crying harder.

00:24:33Her hands shook

00:24:34as she pulled a heavy envelope

00:24:35from her coat.

00:24:37The wax seal bore

00:24:38an old dark gold crest.

00:24:40We have nowhere else to turn.

00:24:41Please,

00:24:42just look at this

00:24:43for the sake of what our families

00:24:45once meant to each other.

00:24:47I almost did not bother,

00:24:49but the moment my eyes

00:24:50touched the seal,

00:24:51my silver sight flared.

00:24:52A pulse of silver light

00:24:53cut through the surface

00:24:54of the wax

00:24:55and beneath it,

00:24:56clear and understakeable,

00:24:58was the trace

00:24:58of a Whitmore silver arrow.

00:25:02The silver arrow

00:25:03was the most sacred relic

00:25:04of the Whitmore bloodline.

00:25:05The Hargroves

00:25:06had stolen it from us

00:25:07and it had been lost

00:25:08for generations.

00:25:11I only learned the truth

00:25:13as I was dying

00:25:13in my past life

00:25:14when it was already

00:25:15too late

00:25:16to do anything about it.

00:25:17Now I knew

00:25:18exactly where it was.

00:25:19That was the real reason

00:25:20I would walk into

00:25:21Hargrove Hall.

00:25:22Not Callum,

00:25:23the arrow.

00:25:25Callum saw me take it

00:25:26and his whole body relaxed.

00:25:28He lifted his chin slightly,

00:25:30satisfaction spreading

00:25:31across his face.

00:25:32He had already decided

00:25:33I was still hung up on him,

00:25:34that I had finally given in

00:25:36because of old feelings.

00:25:37Then he turned on

00:25:38that warm,

00:25:39reasonable voice,

00:25:40the one that used to make me

00:25:41believe every word.

00:25:42Good.

00:25:43All you have to do

00:25:43is come with us

00:25:44and suppress the curse.

00:25:46Once I'm better,

00:25:47I'll make sure you're rewarded.

00:25:48The Hargroves take care of people

00:25:49who prove useful to us.

00:25:51He said it like he was

00:25:52doing me a favor,

00:25:53like I was something

00:25:54he could summon,

00:25:55use,

00:25:55and dismiss

00:25:56whenever it suited him.

00:25:57I looked at him slowly,

00:25:59the way you look at something

00:26:00that does not know

00:26:00it is already finished.

00:26:02I'm going to Hargrove

00:26:03to take back

00:26:04what belongs

00:26:05to the Whitmore family.

00:26:06I was never doing this for you.

00:26:07The smile on his face

00:26:09died,

00:26:09died completely.

00:26:12The next morning,

00:26:13the man had everything packed

00:26:14before I came downstairs.

00:26:16Lady,

00:26:17the carriages are here.

00:26:17He was the boy

00:26:19the Whitmore family

00:26:19had taken in years ago.

00:26:21Quiet,

00:26:22precise,

00:26:22and so still

00:26:23that most people

00:26:24mistook him for cold.

00:26:25Since I came back,

00:26:26he was the only person

00:26:27who looked straight

00:26:27at the scar on my face

00:26:28without flinching

00:26:29or glancing away.

00:26:30Two Hargrove carriages

00:26:31were waiting outside.

00:26:33Eleanor had one to herself,

00:26:34and the other was meant

00:26:35for Callum and me.

00:26:36Jenna,

00:26:37who supposedly could not

00:26:38handle the mountain road,

00:26:39was supposed to have

00:26:39her own space.

00:26:40I was about to step

00:26:41into the second carriage

00:26:42when a voice cut

00:26:43across the courtyard.

00:26:44Wait!

00:26:45Callum,

00:26:45I want to ride with you!

00:26:47She ran toward us

00:26:47with her skirts

00:26:48gathered in both hands,

00:26:49her cheeks flushed

00:26:50and her eyes red at the rims,

00:26:51as if she had already

00:26:53been crying.

00:26:53She was the girl

00:26:54the Hargroves had taken in

00:26:55years ago,

00:26:56the orphan daughter

00:26:57of some distant relation.

00:26:58She had grown up

00:26:59inside the estate walls,

00:27:00right beside Callum.

00:27:01Everyone said she was

00:27:02sweet and innocent,

00:27:03the one person Callum

00:27:04protected more than anyone else.

00:27:06She had a white silk scarf

00:27:07in her hands.

00:27:08Before Callum could answer,

00:27:10she was already looping it

00:27:11around his neck

00:27:11and smoothing it down

00:27:12with both palms.

00:27:14The mountain road is freezing.

00:27:15I don't want you

00:27:15getting sick again.

00:27:16Callum did not move away

00:27:17from her hands.

00:27:18In my past life,

00:27:19I thought she was

00:27:19only being kind.

00:27:20This time,

00:27:21my silver sight caught

00:27:22the edge of the scarf

00:27:23the moment it touched him.

00:27:24Faint dark lines

00:27:25were woven into the silk,

00:27:26forming the exact pattern

00:27:27of a serpent mark.

00:27:28Callum did not see any of it.

00:27:29He was already brushing

00:27:30a loose strand of hair

00:27:31away from Jenna's face.

00:27:32Jenna turned to me

00:27:33with wide, apologetic eyes.

00:27:34Lady Rowena,

00:27:35I hope you don't mind.

00:27:36I won't take up much space,

00:27:37I promise.

00:27:38She did not wait

00:27:39for my answer.

00:27:39She climbed in ahead of me.

00:27:41I watched her settle

00:27:42beside Callum

00:27:43and pushed me toward

00:27:44the window seat

00:27:44without even looking at me.

00:27:45I said nothing.

00:27:47Jenna, last time

00:27:47I missed every move you made.

00:27:49This time I'm gonna watch

00:27:50every single one.

00:27:51The carriage wound its way

00:27:52up the wet cobblestone road

00:27:53towards the Hargraf estate.

00:27:55There was barely enough room

00:27:56for two people

00:27:56to sit comfortably,

00:27:57and Jenna had made sure

00:27:58she stayed pressed

00:27:59against Callum

00:28:00for the entire ride.

00:28:01Every time the wheels

00:28:02hit a rough patch

00:28:03she let out a soft

00:28:04breathy sound

00:28:05and leaned into his shoulder.

00:28:06The timing was perfect,

00:28:07always within my line of sight,

00:28:08like a little performance stage

00:28:10just for me.

00:28:10Callum,

00:28:11I feel so dizzy.

00:28:12I can barely breathe.

00:28:13She twisted her fingers

00:28:14into the front of his shirt,

00:28:16lifting her eyes

00:28:16just enough to catch the light,

00:28:18looking soft

00:28:19and helpless

00:28:19and miserable.

00:28:20In my past life,

00:28:21watching this

00:28:22would have made me

00:28:22want to shrink into myself

00:28:23and disappear.

00:28:24Now I only sat still

00:28:25and watched her work.

00:28:27Callum noticed me looking.

00:28:28His expression

00:28:28hardened at once.

00:28:29He tightened his arm

00:28:30around Jenna

00:28:31and turned his face

00:28:31away from me,

00:28:32like even the air

00:28:33on my side of the carriage

00:28:34disgusted him.

00:28:35Rowene,

00:28:35stop staring.

00:28:36Jenna is kind and gentle,

00:28:37not that you would

00:28:37know anything about that,

00:28:38and stop using that face

00:28:39to scare her.

00:28:39Jenna reached over

00:28:40and touched his arm gently.

00:28:41Callum,

00:28:42don't.

00:28:42Lady Rowena

00:28:43probably doesn't mean it.

00:28:44She knows exactly

00:28:45what she's doing.

00:28:46She's had it out for you

00:28:47since the moment she saw you.

00:28:48Maybe she just doesn't like me.

00:28:50It's alright,

00:28:50I'm used to it.

00:28:51That is her problem,

00:28:52not yours.

00:28:52I don't care what she thinks.

00:28:53I did not answer.

00:28:55In my past life,

00:28:56that exchange

00:28:56would have hollowed me out

00:28:57for days.

00:28:58Now I only filed it away.

00:28:59Every word,

00:29:00every dismissal,

00:29:01I was keeping track.

00:29:02At the same time,

00:29:03through the silver sight,

00:29:04I could see

00:29:05what was really happening.

00:29:06Dark energy was seeping

00:29:07from the coral bracelet

00:29:08on Jenna's wrist,

00:29:09winding along Callum's collar

00:29:11and pushing inch by inch

00:29:12into the skin

00:29:13at the back of his neck.

00:29:14She was not dizzy.

00:29:15She was feeding the serpent.

00:29:16Callum,

00:29:17the sweet innocent girl

00:29:17you're so desperate

00:29:18to protect,

00:29:19is poisoning you right now,

00:29:20and you're holding her tighter.

00:29:21He pulled her closer

00:29:22and pressed his cheek

00:29:23against the top of her head,

00:29:25completely blind.

00:29:26By midday,

00:29:27the carriages stopped

00:29:27in front of the Hargreth family's

00:29:29main residence.

00:29:29This was not Hargreth Hall,

00:29:31not the old estate

00:29:32with the serpent gate

00:29:33buried beneath it.

00:29:34The hall stood deeper

00:29:35inside the grounds,

00:29:36behind a locked inner courtyard

00:29:37that almost never opened.

00:29:38This was only where

00:29:39the family lived.

00:29:39When Jenna stepped down

00:29:40from the carriage,

00:29:41she grabbed the doorbraim,

00:29:42her face going pale,

00:29:43and sagged into Callum's side.

00:29:44I'm fine.

00:29:45Just cold.

00:29:46My legs feel strange.

00:29:48Callum wrapped an arm

00:29:49around her at once.

00:29:50The look he sent me

00:29:50over her shoulder

00:29:51made it clear that somehow

00:29:52this was supposed to be my fault.

00:29:53We passed through

00:29:54the front entrance hall.

00:29:55The moment we crossed

00:29:56the threshold,

00:29:57my silver sight erupted.

00:29:58Dark serpent energy

00:29:59crawled across every wall

00:30:00and ceiling,

00:30:01coiling and shifting

00:30:02like something alive.

00:30:03It hulged at anyone

00:30:04with Hargreth blood,

00:30:05then recoiled the second

00:30:06it touched the silver light

00:30:07of my mark,

00:30:08shrieking back into the cracks.

00:30:10Jenna was walking ahead.

00:30:11I watched her cross

00:30:12the threshold,

00:30:13and I saw the exact moment

00:30:14her shoe came down

00:30:15on the protection line

00:30:17hidden beneath the doorframe.

00:30:18It was not an accident.

00:30:20The movement was too precise.

00:30:21The line snapped.

00:30:22The energy that had been

00:30:23held down broke loose

00:30:24all at once,

00:30:25and a wave of freezing air

00:30:26tore down the corridor

00:30:27like a blade.

00:30:28Oh God!

00:30:29Callum, help me!

00:30:30She stumbled backwards

00:30:31straight into his arms,

00:30:32clean and practiced,

00:30:33like a stage fall.

00:30:34Callum caught her

00:30:35without even looking.

00:30:36One arm locked

00:30:36across her chest,

00:30:37and his first words

00:30:38were from me.

00:30:39Rowena!

00:30:40What the hell are you doing

00:30:41just standing there?

00:30:43You're a Whitmore!

00:30:45You're supposed to handle this!

00:30:47If Jenna gets hurt

00:30:48because of you,

00:30:50I swear you'll answer for it!

00:30:52I raised one hand,

00:30:52a silver seal

00:30:53dropped across the corridor,

00:30:54and the serpent energy

00:30:55shrank back into the walls.

00:30:57The hallway went still.

00:30:58I looked at Callum.

00:31:00You're welcome.

00:31:01I let the silence

00:31:02stretch for a moment.

00:31:03Then I lowered my gaze

00:31:04to the broken line

00:31:05on the floor,

00:31:05before slowly lifting

00:31:06my eyes to Jenna's shoes.

00:31:08You might want to ask

00:31:09how that line

00:31:10broke in the first place.

00:31:11Callum's brow tightened.

00:31:13In his arms,

00:31:13Jenna's eyes filled

00:31:14with tears at once.

00:31:15Her lower lip trembled

00:31:16as she looked up at him,

00:31:17as if she was the one

00:31:18being attacked.

00:31:18Callum looked between us

00:31:20and clenched his jaw.

00:31:21What exactly are you

00:31:22accusing her of?

00:31:23Nothing.

00:31:24Just giving you advice.

00:31:26While you're in this house,

00:31:27pay attention to what's

00:31:28right in front of you.

00:31:29Then I walked toward

00:31:30the sitting room

00:31:30without looking back.

00:31:32When we settled

00:31:32into the sitting room,

00:31:33Eleanor came in herself

00:31:34with a tray of peach blossom tea.

00:31:36Steam curled slowly

00:31:37from each cup.

00:31:38You must be exhausted

00:31:39after that ride, sweetheart.

00:31:40I made this myself.

00:31:42Drink it while it's hot.

00:31:43It will calm your nerves.

00:31:45She had the warmth

00:31:45turned all the way on.

00:31:46Deep smile lines,

00:31:47a gentle voice,

00:31:48every inch the loving grandmother.

00:31:50Jenna sat beside Callum.

00:31:51She picked up his cup first,

00:31:52blew on it softly,

00:31:53and placed it in his hands.

00:31:54Drink it while it's hot.

00:31:55It'll warm you up.

00:31:57In my past life,

00:31:57I fell for all of it.

00:31:58I drank the tea,

00:31:59and by nightfall

00:32:00my silver sight

00:32:01was almost blind.

00:32:02The poison had worked

00:32:03slowly and silently

00:32:04the whole time.

00:32:04When I tried to suppress

00:32:05the serpents that night,

00:32:06I kept making the wrong calls,

00:32:08and one of them

00:32:08tore my palm open.

00:32:09I burned with fever

00:32:10for three days straight,

00:32:11and Jenna had been there

00:32:13the entire time,

00:32:14smiling sweetly

00:32:14as she added a spoonful

00:32:15of sugar to my cup.

00:32:16Something sweet

00:32:17makes everything less bitter,

00:32:18Lady Rowena.

00:32:18This time,

00:32:19I looked into my cup

00:32:19through the silver sight.

00:32:20The tea should have been

00:32:21pale amber,

00:32:22but beneath the surface

00:32:22it was deep crimson.

00:32:23Something small and dark

00:32:25moved along the bottom.

00:32:25I picked up the cup

00:32:26and drank most of it.

00:32:28I let none of it touch me.

00:32:29Under the cover of my sleeve,

00:32:31I pressed two fingers

00:32:32to my wrist

00:32:32and sealed my throat

00:32:33and chest with a silver seal.

00:32:35The poison slammed

00:32:35into the barrier

00:32:36and thrashed like a trapped thing,

00:32:38but it got nowhere.

00:32:39Jenna kept her eyes

00:32:39on my face the whole time.

00:32:41She was waiting

00:32:41for my gaze to blur,

00:32:42waiting for the sight

00:32:43to go dark.

00:32:44When I set the cup down,

00:32:45breathing evenly

00:32:46and looking straight back at her,

00:32:47I saw the corner

00:32:48of her smile crack.

00:32:49Just a twitch.

00:32:50Just one second.

00:32:51But it was there.

00:32:52Lucian picked up his own cup,

00:32:54gave it one slow sniff,

00:32:55then turned and poured

00:32:56the whole thing

00:32:57into the planter

00:32:57beside his chair.

00:32:58Too sweet.

00:33:00Hides the taste of rot.

00:33:01Eleanor's expression flickered.

00:33:03Calatin's eyes sharpened.

00:33:04My grandmother

00:33:04made that tea herself.

00:33:06You want to explain

00:33:07what the hell you're doing?

00:33:07I just did.

00:33:08Lucian looked at him calmly.

00:33:10Callum's face turned ugly.

00:33:11He was about to snap back

00:33:12when Jenna laid a hand

00:33:13on his arm.

00:33:14Callum, don't.

00:33:15We asked them to come here.

00:33:16It's fine, really.

00:33:17She said it in that soft,

00:33:18peacemaking voice.

00:33:20But as she lifted

00:33:20her own cup back to her lips,

00:33:22her eyes slid sideways to me,

00:33:24patient, calculating,

00:33:25waiting to see something

00:33:26that was never going to happen.

00:33:28I looked at her

00:33:29and said nothing.

00:33:30Jenna,

00:33:30I'm just getting started.

00:33:31Next time,

00:33:32I'll make sure

00:33:33you see it coming.

00:33:34The welcome dinner that night

00:33:35was exactly the kind of show

00:33:36the Hargroves loved to put on.

00:33:37Candles stretched down the table.

00:33:39Silver gleamed

00:33:40at every place setting,

00:33:41and there was more food

00:33:42than anyone could finish.

00:33:43Jenna sat to Callum's left,

00:33:44cutting her food

00:33:45with careful,

00:33:46effortless grace.

00:33:47Then she set down her knife,

00:33:48turned to me,

00:33:49and spoke in the softest,

00:33:50most concerned voice she had.

00:33:51Ladies Rowena,

00:33:52I've been meaning

00:33:53to ask you something.

00:33:54With a scar like that

00:33:55on your face,

00:33:56do people avoid you

00:33:57when you go out?

00:33:57You must feel so lonely.

00:33:59I can't even imagine.

00:34:01Perfectly worded,

00:34:02perfectly gentle,

00:34:03loud enough for every servant

00:34:04in the room to hear.

00:34:05I held my knife and fork

00:34:06and did not respond.

00:34:07Jenna,

00:34:08don't say it like that.

00:34:09She's a guest,

00:34:10you'll embarrass her.

00:34:11In my past life,

00:34:12I had actually been grateful for that.

00:34:13I thought he was standing up for me.

00:34:15Now I could see it clearly.

00:34:17He did not care

00:34:17whether I was humiliated.

00:34:19He just needed me

00:34:20to walk into that hall

00:34:20tomorrow night,

00:34:21and a scene at dinner

00:34:22would make things harder.

00:34:23That sentence was for him,

00:34:25not for me.

00:34:26Jenna's face crumpled at once.

00:34:27Her eyes filled.

00:34:28I didn't mean it that way.

00:34:30I was worried about her.

00:34:31Callum,

00:34:32why are you making it sound

00:34:33like I did something wrong?

00:34:34Her voice broke on the last word.

00:34:35Two tears slipped down her face.

00:34:37And just like that,

00:34:38Callum changed.

00:34:39The hardness left him,

00:34:41and his voice turned low and gentle.

00:34:43I know you didn't.

00:34:44I'm sorry.

00:34:46I shouldn't have said it like that.

00:34:47Lucian set down his silverware.

00:34:49I have a question.

00:34:50Is this how the Hargroves

00:34:52treat guests they begged for help?

00:34:53Every sound at the table stopped.

00:34:55Jenna's tears paused mid-fall.

00:34:57Callum's head snapped up,

00:34:58and the look he gave Lucian

00:34:59was full of real anger.

00:35:00Who the hell do you think you are?

00:35:02Nobody asked for your opinion!

00:35:04Lucian did not move.

00:35:05He only held Callum's gaze

00:35:06and took his time answering.

00:35:07I came with Lady Whitmore.

00:35:09As long as she is here,

00:35:10I have every right to speak.

00:35:12Callum pressed one hand flat

00:35:13against the edge of the table.

00:35:14His jaw tightened,

00:35:15and his face went pale with fury.

00:35:16Rowena,

00:35:17control your people.

00:35:18I set my wine glass down slowly

00:35:20and looked at him.

00:35:21He's right.

00:35:22Callum,

00:35:22I came because your family

00:35:23begged me to save you.

00:35:24I did not come here

00:35:25to be insulted at your dinner table.

00:35:27If you can't understand the difference,

00:35:28I don't need to enter

00:35:29that hall tomorrow.

00:35:30I can leave tonight.

00:35:32Silence fell over the room.

00:35:33Then Callum exhaled through his nose,

00:35:35forced down his anger

00:35:36and ground out the words

00:35:37like they hurt.

00:35:38After dinner,

00:35:38I'll have Chester bring out

00:35:39the legacy book.

00:35:41I picked up my wine glass again

00:35:42and said nothing.

00:35:43Dinner ended,

00:35:43and I asked for the Hargrove

00:35:44legacy book,

00:35:45the family's hand-print record

00:35:46dating back to 1840.

00:35:47It doored it how the serpent gate

00:35:49was first sealed,

00:35:49and why.

00:35:50If the silver arrow

00:35:51was hidden somewhere

00:35:51on these grounds,

00:35:52there would be a trace of it

00:35:53in those pages.

00:35:55Callum's face tightened at once.

00:35:57It's a dusty old record book.

00:35:59You're here to deal

00:36:00with the curse,

00:36:01not dig through

00:36:02our family history.

00:36:03If I'm going to suppress

00:36:04what's down there,

00:36:04I need to know

00:36:05what caused it.

00:36:05The answer is in that book.

00:36:07Is that too hard

00:36:07for you to understand?

00:36:08He opened his mouth

00:36:08to argue,

00:36:09and Jenna let out

00:36:09a sharp little cry.

00:36:10Her elbow caught the wine bottle

00:36:11at the edge of the table.

00:36:12It tipped over

00:36:12and spilled half its contents

00:36:13across the tablecloth

00:36:14in a dark red wave.

00:36:15Servants rushed forward,

00:36:16and the moment broke apart.

00:36:17I'm so sorry.

00:36:18I'm so sorry.

00:36:19My hands are so shaky tonight.

00:36:20Callum leaned over

00:36:21and took her hands in his,

00:36:23checking them with a deep frown.

00:36:24You didn't cut yourself.

00:36:25It's just a bottle.

00:36:26It doesn't matter.

00:36:26Then he looked at me sideways,

00:36:28contempt clear in his eyes.

00:36:29All this over one old book?

00:36:31Did you really have to push that hard

00:36:32and scare her like that?

00:36:33What is this,

00:36:34an interrogation?

00:36:35I was not looking at him.

00:36:36Through the silver sight,

00:36:37I watched dark serpent energy

00:36:38pour from Jenna's sleeve

00:36:39and curl around the cabinet

00:36:40where the legacy book was kept

00:36:42like a hand pressing the doors shut.

00:36:44She had not dropped the bottle

00:36:45because her hands were unsteady.

00:36:47She had dropped it

00:36:48to keep that cabinet closed.

00:36:49I raised one hand.

00:36:50A silver seal shot across the room

00:36:51and pinned the serpent energy

00:36:52flat against the cabinet doors.

00:36:53Jenna went white.

00:36:54Lucien walked to the cabinet,

00:36:55opened it without asking,

00:36:56and looked calmly

00:36:57at Chester in the corner.

00:36:58Chester, bring out the legacy book.

00:36:59Chester hesitated.

00:37:00Then he lowered his head,

00:37:01took the yellowed leather valium

00:37:02wooden box inside the cabinet

00:37:03and held it out with both hands.

00:37:04I took it and opened it.

00:37:05I caught sight of the serpent brand

00:37:06running along the edge

00:37:06of Chester's sleeve.

00:37:07I filed it away.

00:37:08The first several pages

00:37:09of the legacy book

00:37:10had been cut out.

00:37:11Clean cuts.

00:37:12Blade cuts.

00:37:13Nothing old about them.

00:37:14Callum glanced over

00:37:15and dismissed it

00:37:16without missing a beat.

00:37:17It's a 150-year-old book.

00:37:18Pages go missing.

00:37:19That's not suspicious.

00:37:20That's time.

00:37:21Jenna stepped in right on cue.

00:37:24Exactly.

00:37:24Lady Rowena,

00:37:25the Hargroves have been

00:37:26a respectable family

00:37:27for generations.

00:37:28There's nothing to hide here.

00:37:29Don't you think you're

00:37:30reading too much into this?

00:37:31I ignored them both

00:37:32and bent over the torn edges,

00:37:33looking through the silver site.

00:37:34There it was,

00:37:35buried in the yellowed fringe,

00:37:36the faint silver glow

00:37:37of dried Whitmore blood,

00:37:38ancient and thin.

00:37:39Tangled through it

00:37:40was the serpent energy

00:37:40from the bracelet on Jenna's wrist,

00:37:42the exact same signature.

00:37:43She was the one

00:37:44who had cut out those pages,

00:37:45which meant she had known

00:37:46about the silver arrow all along.

00:37:47I was about to speak

00:37:49when the death mark

00:37:50on Callum's forehead split open.

00:37:52Serpent energy

00:37:53burst through his veins

00:37:54all at once

00:37:54and the whole study shook.

00:37:56From deep inside

00:37:57Hargrove Hall

00:37:57came a low, grinding sound,

00:37:59like something massive

00:38:00turning in its sleep.

00:38:01Callum's legs buckled.

00:38:02He caught the edge of a shelf,

00:38:04his face white,

00:38:05his teeth clenched,

00:38:06his breath coming in sharp pulls.

00:38:08Eleanor rushed across the room

00:38:09and grabbed my arm.

00:38:10Rowene, please,

00:38:11go tonight.

00:38:12You're the only one

00:38:13who can stop it.

00:38:14Please.

00:38:14I closed the legacy book.

00:38:16I'll enter Hargrove Hall tonight,

00:38:17but I'm going to question the serpent,

00:38:19not break the curse.

00:38:20Get that straight now.

00:38:21Then I turned to Jenna.

00:38:22My voice stayed calm,

00:38:23but every person in the room

00:38:24heard me one more thing.

00:38:25During the ritual tonight,

00:38:26Jenna does not come anywhere

00:38:27near the main hall.

00:38:28Her energy is corrupt.

00:38:28If she gets close,

00:38:29she'll provoke what's down there

00:38:30and the entire formation

00:38:31will collapse.

00:38:32This is not a request.

00:38:33It's a condition.

00:38:33The study went completely silent.

00:38:35Jenna blinked.

00:38:37Then her head lowered

00:38:38and tears rolled down her face

00:38:40without a sound.

00:38:41Callum pushed himself up

00:38:42from the shelf,

00:38:43still pale and tight with pain,

00:38:45and turned on me at once.

00:38:46On what grounds?

00:38:48Jenna came all this way

00:38:49because she was worried about me.

00:38:50You don't get to throw her out in the cold

00:38:51just because you hate her.

00:38:52On the grounds that

00:38:53if I walk in tonight,

00:38:54you live.

00:38:55Callum stayed quiet,

00:38:56but it was not over.

00:38:57He steadied himself against the shelf

00:38:59and started again

00:38:59a few seconds later.

00:39:01Even if you have to enter

00:39:02the hall tonight,

00:39:02that does not give you the right

00:39:03to leave Jenna outside alone.

00:39:04She scares easily.

00:39:05What if something happens

00:39:06and you are not there?

00:39:07Are you going to take responsibility

00:39:08for that?

00:39:09Jenna's tears fell faster,

00:39:10but she still reached out

00:39:11and grabbed Callum's sleeve

00:39:11with both hands.

00:39:12Callum, please don't fight

00:39:13with Lady Rowena.

00:39:14This is my fault.

00:39:14I shouldn't have come.

00:39:15You go in and let her do

00:39:16what she needs to do.

00:39:17Don't worry about me.

00:39:18I'll wait outside.

00:39:19I just want you safe.

00:39:19That's all I want.

00:39:20Every word landed

00:39:21exactly where she wanted it to.

00:39:23Callum's chest rose

00:39:24and fell hard.

00:39:25Then he turned

00:39:26all that anger on me.

00:39:27You hear that?

00:39:28She's willing to stand out there

00:39:29alone in the dark

00:39:30just to make things easier for you.

00:39:32What kind of person are you?

00:39:33Jenna stays by the door tonight.

00:39:35No one is stopping her.

00:39:36I looked at them

00:39:37without anger.

00:39:38I was not even surprised.

00:39:40This was the same performance

00:39:41they had put on

00:39:42in my past life.

00:39:43Jenna cried,

00:39:44Callum exploded,

00:39:44and every bit of blame

00:39:45in the room landed on me

00:39:46while they clung to each other.

00:39:48Perfectly timed.

00:39:50Perfectly practiced.

00:39:52I turned toward Hargrim Hall

00:39:53and spoke without looking back.

00:39:56Fine.

00:39:57Then keep your eyes open tonight.

00:40:00Whatever happens,

00:40:01don't come crying to me.

00:40:04Behind me,

00:40:05I heard Callum murmur to Jenna.

00:40:07You're okay.

00:40:09I'm right here.

00:40:10I walked into the dark

00:40:11of Hargmite Hall

00:40:12without turning around.

00:40:13I already knew

00:40:13he would open that door

00:40:14for her when the time came.

00:40:15And the harder he fought

00:40:16to protect her tonight,

00:40:17the worse the backlash would hit him.

00:40:18The main hall of Hargrave Hall.

00:40:20The wind howled through the walls

00:40:21like something was trying

00:40:22to claw its way out.

00:40:23The old chandelier swung overhead,

00:40:25its candles throwing long,

00:40:27crooked shadows

00:40:27across the room.

00:40:28The estate had gone still,

00:40:29except for the dull shiver

00:40:31that rolled up

00:40:32from beneath the floor

00:40:32every few minutes.

00:40:33Whatever had been sleeping down there

00:40:35was starting to wake.

00:40:36I stood in the center

00:40:36of the hall and focused.

00:40:38Whitmore blood ignited in my veins.

00:40:40Silver seals poured out of me

00:40:41in rings,

00:40:42spreading across the floor

00:40:43like a net of cold light,

00:40:45pressing the serpent energy

00:40:46back into the walls and stone.

00:40:48Building a formation like this

00:40:49burned through everything I had.

00:40:51Power, focus,

00:40:52and sheer will.

00:40:53But I did not let it show.

00:40:55My hands were steady.

00:40:57My face was calm.

00:40:59Callum stood on the far side

00:41:00of the formation,

00:41:01supported by the old butler.

00:41:03The death mark on his forehead

00:41:05pulsed blood red

00:41:06in the silver light.

00:41:07He was shaking,

00:41:08yet he still looked at me

00:41:09like he was doing me a favor

00:41:10by letting me help.

00:41:11How sure are you about this?

00:41:13I did not look at him.

00:41:14Sure enough.

00:41:15A pause.

00:41:16I need more than questions.

00:41:17I need the death mark

00:41:18gone completely.

00:41:19Can you actually do that?

00:41:20I turned and looked at him

00:41:22properly for the first time.

00:41:23Callum, the only reason

00:41:24I'm standing in this room

00:41:25is because the silver arrow

00:41:26is here.

00:41:27Not because of you.

00:41:29Whether that mark

00:41:30comes off at all

00:41:31depends on whether

00:41:32the Hargroves start paying

00:41:33what they owe the Whitmans.

00:41:35We can discuss that later.

00:41:36He wanted to argue.

00:41:38Then the death mark

00:41:39tore at him again,

00:41:40and the sound that left his throat

00:41:41was not one he meant to make.

00:41:43He swallowed it down hard.

00:41:44Palm up.

00:41:45Catch the light

00:41:46from the core of the formation.

00:41:47Whatever you hear,

00:41:48whatever you see,

00:41:48do not move.

00:41:49This creature follows

00:41:50Hargrove blood.

00:41:51If you move,

00:41:51the backlash will bury you

00:41:52and I will not be able

00:41:53to pull you out.

00:41:53Callum raised his

00:41:54trembling right hand.

00:41:55This time,

00:41:56he said nothing.

00:41:57The last seal fell into place.

00:41:59The stone floor cracked

00:42:00with a deep,

00:42:01grinding boom

00:42:02that rose through

00:42:03the soles of my feet.

00:42:04The eternal flame

00:42:05in its copper lamp

00:42:06guttled

00:42:06until it was almost gone

00:42:08and the temperature dropped.

00:42:09So fast,

00:42:10it felt like the walls

00:42:11themselves

00:42:11were breathing out ice.

00:42:13The floor began to shake

00:42:14in small,

00:42:15rapid tremors.

00:42:16White mist bled up

00:42:17through the cracks,

00:42:18spreading low and thick

00:42:19across the ground,

00:42:20catching the faint silver light

00:42:21of my formation.

00:42:23Then,

00:42:24from the center

00:42:24of the mist,

00:42:25she came.

00:42:27Althea.

00:42:28A thousand-year-old serpent,

00:42:30white as bone,

00:42:31as large as a river dragon,

00:42:33with golden-slit eyes

00:42:34burning in the dark

00:42:35like two cold fires.

00:42:36Decades of rage,

00:42:38grief,

00:42:38and imprisonment

00:42:39moved through the air

00:42:40around her,

00:42:41like a physical force.

00:42:43The servants screamed.

00:42:46Eleanor collapsed

00:42:47to her knees.

00:42:48Callum made a sound

00:42:49he probably did not

00:42:50mean to make.

00:42:51as the death mark

00:42:52nearly tore itself open

00:42:53under the pressure

00:42:54of her presence.

00:42:56But when those golden eyes

00:42:57swept across the hall

00:42:58and found me,

00:42:59they stopped.

00:43:01She recognized something.

00:43:03The covenant.

00:43:04The silver light around me.

00:43:06Something older

00:43:07than her rage.

00:43:08Althea went still

00:43:09in a way she had not

00:43:10been still in years.

00:43:12Then she lowered her slowly,

00:43:14all the way to my feet.

00:43:16A low, grieving sound

00:43:17came from her throat,

00:43:19like a creature

00:43:19finally standing

00:43:20before the person

00:43:21it had been waiting for.

00:43:22No one in the room

00:43:23could speak.

00:43:24Callum's breathing

00:43:25was loud,

00:43:26raggled,

00:43:26and stunned.

00:43:27He had spent his whole life

00:43:28under the shadow

00:43:29of what she had done

00:43:30to his family.

00:43:31He had never expected

00:43:33to see her bow.

00:43:33I crouched

00:43:34and touched her scales.

00:43:36They were cold,

00:43:37smooth,

00:43:38and faintly luminous.

00:43:39Althea,

00:43:40I need to ask you something.

00:43:42The silver arrow,

00:43:43the one taken

00:43:43from the Whitmore family

00:43:44a hundred years ago

00:43:45and brought into this estate.

00:43:46Where is it?

00:43:47Her whole body convulsed.

00:43:49She reared halfway up,

00:43:50her great tail

00:43:51striking the stone floor

00:43:52as she pointed deeper

00:43:54into the estate.

00:43:55Somewhere farther in,

00:43:57one more step,

00:43:58one answer.

00:43:59That was all

00:44:00it would have taken.

00:44:10Because we're divorced.

00:44:13What do you mean to this?

00:44:15The moment the woman

00:44:16overhears her husband

00:44:17telling them

00:44:17they are already divorced,

00:44:18she rushes over

00:44:19in disbelief

00:44:20to confront him.

00:44:20Just three days earlier,

00:44:21she was so distracted

00:44:22by a call with her first love

00:44:24that she signed

00:44:24the divorce papers

00:44:25without reading them.

00:44:26The man knew

00:44:26that his wife

00:44:27had been treating him

00:44:27as nothing more

00:44:28than a stand-in

00:44:29for her ex

00:44:29throughout the past

00:44:30five years.

00:44:31When she learned

00:44:32that her ex

00:44:32had returned to the country,

00:44:33she even moved him

00:44:34into their home

00:44:35and forced her husband

00:44:35to wait on them both.

00:44:36When the man was injured

00:44:37while trying to protect her,

00:44:38she ignored him.

00:44:39...care for her ex

00:44:41who was fainting sickness.

00:44:42Unable to endure

00:44:43the situation any longer,

00:44:44he decided to leave.

00:44:46Welcome back, you girl.

00:44:47You ready to get to work?

00:44:48Hugo!

00:44:49Hugo!

00:44:50Hugo!

00:44:51Hugo!

00:44:52Hugo!

00:44:53Yeah!

00:45:25Five minutes!

00:45:27That's a new record!

00:45:34You really think he can pull this off?

00:45:36Anyone can do it.

00:45:37You go, Ben.

00:45:40I'm impressed with what I've seen.

00:45:42You've seen me, too.

00:45:49Hugo!

00:45:50You are the best.

00:45:51The best.

00:45:55Thank you, Sean.

00:45:56Thank you, Sean.

00:45:56What's up, Lee?

00:45:57You won't be.

00:45:58You want to see lovely.

00:46:11473 missed calls.

00:46:12Hugo, where have you been?

00:46:13I've been worried sick.

00:46:14Please, just come home.

00:46:16Sheila does care about it.

00:46:19Hugo.

00:46:20Where are you?

00:46:22Hugo.

00:46:23Hugo.

00:46:24Where are you?

00:46:33Where have you been?

00:46:35You have absolutely no idea what I've been through.

00:46:39Sorry, there's no service on the seminar.

00:46:40I had to fire at least a dozen chefs because nobody understands my dietary restrictions like

00:46:45you do.

00:46:45So that's the way it is.

00:46:47You didn't miss me.

00:46:48You missed my smoothies.

00:46:50Hugo.

00:46:53I think it's time that you quit your job.

00:46:57You don't have to be a janitor anymore.

00:47:00You think I'm a janitor?

00:47:02Or whatever your title is.

00:47:03Just stay home.

00:47:05Take care of me.

00:47:07I'll increase your loans by 8%.

00:47:08I promise you.

00:47:09You'll be so much happier.

00:47:11Your entitlement has made you blind, Sheila.

00:47:13No matter what you say, I will never give up on my dream again.

00:47:18Sheila.

00:47:20We're divorced.

00:47:23Why do you keep saying that silly little thing?

00:47:25Because we are.

00:47:26You signed the papers.

00:47:27It's official.

00:47:28I know.

00:47:29You're upset about Bryce.

00:47:31But he's gone now.

00:47:31No more bath time.

00:47:32So please, just forget this divorce fantasy and move back in with me.

00:47:37Oh, that reminds me.

00:47:38I got you something.

00:47:42Want to know what it is?

00:47:45Your very own habit helicopter.

00:47:52A helicopter?

00:47:54What good is a helicopter under the sea?

00:48:00Well, well, well.

00:48:02Look who's come crawling back.

00:48:04Good to see you, Hugo.

00:48:05Looks like this place is going to get more crowded, huh?

00:48:08Oh, really?

00:48:09Why is that?

00:48:10Well, I've grown tired of the roots here.

00:48:12I thought I'd move back in.

00:48:13Oh, well.

00:48:14Hugo was just about to move back in.

00:48:16Oh, great.

00:48:17Well, plenty of room on the couch.

00:48:19Right, Hugo?

00:48:20Sheila, I saw the helicopter.

00:48:22Finally, you bought one for Bryce.

00:48:25What?

00:48:25You bought me a helicopter?

00:48:27What was one of those?

00:48:28Mom, why do you assume the helicopter was for Bryce?

00:48:32Well, it obviously isn't for Hugo.

00:48:33You don't even buy him a card on his birthdays.

00:48:37Why is he going to hold me the keys?

00:48:41Those are worth more than your life.

00:48:43You can keep your gifts, Sheila.

00:48:45The sea is my home now.

00:48:47Hot diggity dog.

00:48:49It's fitting that you got me a helicopter, Sheila.

00:48:51Is that because of my special talents?

00:48:55Oh, this is so exciting, Bryce.

00:48:57Where are you going to take Sheila first?

00:48:59Oh, good question.

00:49:00I'm thinking Park City, maybe Catalina, maybe Barcelona.

00:49:06Yeah, um, please stop.

00:49:09Hugo is right here.

00:49:11Good point.

00:49:11Hugo, why don't you grab us a couple glasses of champagne?

00:49:14Actually, what do we need?

00:49:15Four?

00:49:16Celebrate.

00:49:16I want to christen my new chopper, Sir Reginald Jr.

00:49:20She met Sir Reginald Sr. last night.

00:49:23Well, on your way, look at him, just staring at us like an idiot.

00:49:30Can't even pour a glass of champagne for his queen.

00:49:36Laugh it up while you can.

00:49:38In one week, I'll be a deep sea explorer and out of your life forever.

00:49:49For five whole years, Sheila, you were my world.

00:49:54I would have done anything for you.

00:49:57But today, you'll get what you really want from me.

00:50:01A divorce.

00:50:13Happy anniversary.

00:50:18Now, you can be with your one true love.

00:50:22Mmm.

00:50:26Yeah, yeah, come for me, baby.

00:50:34Oh, my God.

00:50:36Yeah, yeah.

00:50:39Oh, Bryce.

00:50:45When we first met, I nursed you back to health.

00:50:49I cooked.

00:50:51I cleaned.

00:50:52I fumigated our home so you'd be safe from mold spores.

00:50:56No matter how perfect I made your life, it was never enough.

00:51:02It's clear now.

00:51:03Your perfect life doesn't include my love.

00:51:08One final night.

00:51:10And then I'll give you the sweetest gift of all.

00:51:12Freedom.

00:51:17Midnight.

00:51:18And you're still not home.

00:51:20Normally, I'd be worried sick.

00:51:22But I'm done waiting around for you.

00:51:25Yeah.

00:51:26I just got home.

00:51:28Sheila.

00:51:29Here.

00:51:29For me?

00:51:30Sheila, this is beautiful.

00:51:31Thank you for the show, Bryce.

00:51:34It's Bryce again.

00:51:38Excuse me.

00:51:41She goes, you clumsy fuck.

00:51:43Look what you just did.

00:51:45You were out with Bryce on our anniversary.

00:51:48My God, stop with this jealousy shit.

00:51:50I just went to the beach.

00:51:52Sheila, you have a deadly coral allergy.

00:51:53You can't just go for their-

00:51:55I know, I know.

00:51:56Okay?

00:51:56It was just a moonlight skinny dip.

00:51:59Skinny dipping.

00:52:00You went to skinny dipping with Bryce tonight.

00:52:02We didn't want to get our clothes wet.

00:52:04Okay?

00:52:04I could barely see it there.

00:52:08I made you a cake.

00:52:10Oh my God, can I not get one fucking moment of peace?

00:52:14You were so goddamn annoying.

00:52:15And you know what?

00:52:16I'd fund your entire life.

00:52:17And if you didn't have me, you'd be a new buddy.

00:52:21No cake for nobodies.

00:52:24Thanks.

00:52:30I would be somebody if not for you.

00:52:32The ocean was to be my home.

00:52:34I was set to be the top deep sea explorer for sea lab.

00:52:41Set a course for the trench.

00:52:43Full speed ahead.

00:52:45Oh.

00:52:46You are in high marks and bravery.

00:52:49But sometimes dreams must take a backseat to duty.

00:52:55You go.

00:52:57You'll marry my sick and feeble daughter?

00:53:00Perry, you rescued me from that orphanage when I was a kid.

00:53:04She was my first friend.

00:53:06No question.

00:53:09You're a good man, you know.

00:53:11But now it's all over and we can both be happy.

00:53:16Sheila, we need to talk.

00:53:18Can't.

00:53:19Late to eat Bryce.

00:53:24Sheila, you will have your whole life to be with Bryce.

00:53:28Come on, Hugo.

00:53:30Enough with this poor pitiful me shit.

00:53:33And where is my smoothie?

00:53:35We need to discuss this, Sheila.

00:53:37Hugo, you have one job.

00:53:39And that's just to make my smoothie in the morning so I can be strong.

00:53:42Can you do nothing right?

00:53:44I...

00:53:46I...

00:53:46I... what?

00:53:47Like, hello?

00:53:48Can you fucking speak?

00:53:49Jesus.

00:53:50What are you moving about anyway?

00:53:52I promised your father I'd marry you.

00:53:54But it all ends today.

00:53:57Yeah.

00:53:59High five.

00:54:06Yeah.

00:54:07I'll be right there.

00:54:08You know what you just signed?

00:54:09I'm not.

00:54:09Sign.

00:54:10Don't sign.

00:54:11Who gives a shit, Hugo?

00:54:12Only if you can control your attitude.

00:54:14Sorry I'm late, Bryce.

00:54:16My so-called husband wouldn't make me a damn smoothie.

00:54:17If you need extra nutrition, I have something I can give you.

00:54:21Oh.

00:54:21So you're going to give me what I need?

00:54:24Oh yeah.

00:54:25It'll fill you up.

00:54:27Hear that?

00:54:27Bryce is going to give me anything I want.

00:54:29Why can't you just be a little more like him?

00:54:31Is he now?

00:54:33Clearly that is just beyond you.

00:54:35You know, when my parents got divorced, Bryce spent years researching an entire shark species

00:54:39and he named it after me.

00:54:40Why can't you just do something like that?

00:54:42You think Bryce did that?

00:54:47I spent three years looking for that shark.

00:54:58This is the world's biggest shark.

00:55:03I'm going to name it after my girl back home.

00:55:07Shalannis Amoris.

00:55:23Hugo Presley speaking.

00:55:25Hugo, James Doolittle.

00:55:26President of Sea Labs Enterprises.

00:55:28And we need the best.

00:55:30What is it?

00:55:31It's our most ambitious mission ever.

00:55:33Deep Sea, one year, zero contact.

00:55:36Are you in?

00:55:37I thought you'd never ask.

00:55:39So, you're in?

00:55:41Oh yeah.

00:55:43Outstanding.

00:55:43Your training starts in two days.

00:55:45But I've been out of the water for five years.

00:55:47How did you hear of me?

00:55:49Your father-in-law, Perry McGuire.

00:55:50Let us know you might be interested.

00:55:52Perry.

00:55:56Hugo, come on in.

00:55:57Have a seat.

00:55:58I hear congratulations in order.

00:56:01Perry, I can't thank you enough.

00:56:03Recommending you was the easy part.

00:56:04You're the right man for the job, Hugo.

00:56:06Hugo, so what about Sheila?

00:56:10Hugo, remember when Bryce left my daughter?

00:56:14I just bought a castle out there.

00:56:16See, give it a sniff.

00:56:17Give it a little smell.

00:56:18The best of the best for you.

00:56:20Uh, take that.

00:56:23Sheila, I really, I can't.

00:56:24I got a lot on my plate, so.

00:56:26Come on, ladies.

00:56:33My daughter's life could have ended that day.

00:56:38You marry my daughter, I'll pay you handsomely.

00:56:42I'm not in it for the money, Perry.

00:56:45I needed her, and now she needs me.

00:56:52You agreeing to marry Sheila saved my daughter's life.

00:56:56Hugo, it's been five years since you made that selfless decision to marry my decrepit daughter.

00:57:02I think it's time for you to forge your new path, son.

00:57:05Are you sure that she will be okay?

00:57:09Listen, Sheila's mother cheated on me more than I can count.

00:57:12I just waited too long to divorce her.

00:57:15That was my mistake.

00:57:16I don't want you to repeat my mistake, Hugo.

00:57:19Your debt's been paid.

00:57:20And like mother, like daughter, Sheila's gonna regret letting you go till the day she dies.

00:57:25I promise you that.

00:57:27You're a good man, Hugo.

00:57:30I'm proud of you.

00:57:33Thanks, Perry.

00:57:35Oh, fuck.

00:57:37Hugo!

00:57:38You worthless ass!

00:57:40I've been waiting at the door for five minutes!

00:57:43Is this you, Harriet?

00:57:45Don't talk back, you dickless troll.

00:57:47Without my money, you'd be living under a bridge, which is where you belong.

00:57:52Well, I was just leaving.

00:57:57What's this suitcase for?

00:58:00Tell me my daughter finally kicked your worthless butt to the curb!

00:58:04No, Harriet.

00:58:05Actually, I am wanted elsewhere.

00:58:08Where do you think you're going?

00:58:11You don't get to just milk my daughter for her money and not work for it.

00:58:16Oh, fuck.

00:58:20Shine my shoes, boy.

00:58:23Wait till you see what I have planned after for us.

00:58:25Okay.

00:58:27Why don't you do mine next, okay?

00:58:32Oh, um, don't tip him.

00:58:33That's my husband.

00:58:36Oh, my God, Hugo.

00:58:37I didn't even...

00:58:38I thought you were the maid.

00:58:40Bryce.

00:58:41Wow.

00:58:43I'm so happy to hear you're moving in.

00:58:45Wait, what?

00:58:47Bryce is moving in?

00:58:48Yeah.

00:58:49Oh, quit sulking about it.

00:58:51It has nothing to do with you.

00:58:52It's my house, so I get to decide.

00:58:54Finally.

00:58:55Now Bryce and Sheila can be together.

00:58:57Oh.

00:58:58Well, I don't want to be a homewrecker.

00:59:00Wreck what?

00:59:01You're rich, successful, handsome.

00:59:04Unlike her dog of a husband, Hugo.

00:59:06Oh, Harriet, surely you're not calling Hugo a dog.

00:59:09Sheila's little bitch.

00:59:12Mom?

00:59:13Bryce?

00:59:14Oh, don't get upset.

00:59:15They're just teasing.

00:59:17I'm not upset.

00:59:19Not at all.

00:59:20Excuse me.

00:59:22Wait, where are you going?

00:59:24Does it matter?

00:59:25Hugo, if you feel uncomfortable with me staying here, I can get a hotel.

00:59:28No, you're staying here.

00:59:30Because I could use the company.

00:59:33Sure.

00:59:34I can rent out one of those nice presidential suites we can try on the headboard.

00:59:39Hugo is the only one who should be going to a hotel.

00:59:42As you wish.

00:59:44Wait, Hugo.

00:59:46There's enough room in the house, both you and Bryce.

00:59:50Bryce!

00:59:52Bryce, are you okay?

00:59:54I'll be fine.

00:59:56It's just that first class really doesn't number on my back.

00:59:59Yeah, I understand.

01:00:00Well, we'll handle that immediately.

01:00:02You know, go upstairs and run him an Epsom salt bath.

01:00:05Oh, thank you.

01:00:05Quickly.

01:00:07Well?

01:00:08Chop, chop.

01:00:09Bryce can run his own bath.

01:00:12Why are you being so rude?

01:00:13Bryce is our guest and he's in pain, for God's sake.

01:00:16It's not my problem.

01:00:18What is going into you?

01:00:20Sheila, it's okay.

01:00:21If I had to run my wife's ex a bath, I'd be crying too.

01:00:25You worthless piece of shit.

01:00:26You are not half the man, Bryce's.

01:00:28Oh, Harriet, don't worry about it.

01:00:30Sheila knows how to fix my back, right, huh?

01:00:33You know what would really fix my back?

01:00:36Taking my two ladies to a reservation at La Rizia.

01:00:41Oh!

01:00:43How did you get a table?

01:00:44I pulled a few strings.

01:00:47Hugo can come too.

01:00:49Yeah, we can get him a spot at the bar.

01:00:54Thank you so much, Bryce.

01:00:57Give me your what, bitch?

01:01:01Sheila, what?

01:01:02No, no, no.

01:01:04What?

01:01:05Oh!

01:01:08Oh!

01:01:12Oh!

01:01:16Bryce, call me, please.

01:01:18That's a pretty brave thing you did there, Hugo.

01:01:21It's too bad I can't let you be the hero.

01:01:25Oh, does that hurt?

01:01:26Does that hurt?

01:01:29You're almost as tight as your wife.

01:01:33Ah!

01:01:34Oh, his son of a bitch got me!

01:01:35Bryce, oh my God.

01:01:36Oh my God.

01:01:37Bryce, are you okay?

01:01:38What happened?

01:01:38I tried to find out the mugger, but he cut me.

01:01:41I should have just ran away like you.

01:01:42I'm fine.

01:01:44Coward!

01:01:45You abandoned Bryce and almost got him killed?

01:01:47Fuck, I've been stabbed.

01:01:48Hugo, do you mind?

01:01:50I don't.

01:01:50Bryce got hurt trying to protect us.

01:01:52Jesus Christ!

01:01:53Hugo, you can walk to the hospital.

01:01:56Bryce, look at all this blood.

01:01:57God!

01:01:58If I die, I'm just happy I could have saved you.

01:02:02No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

01:02:04no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

01:02:04no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

01:02:04Hugo, call an ambulance right now.

01:02:06Bryce, go get it.

01:02:07Hugo, do as I say now.

01:02:10You useless pussy.

01:02:11No, no, no, no! You go!

01:02:35To the roller?

01:02:37Up or down?

01:02:39Oh, yeah.

01:02:49Hugo, why are you spying on us?

01:02:51The doctor already banished every scrape, you can go.

01:02:53Scrape?

01:02:54This isn't a scrape, Sheila.

01:02:55I was stabbed.

01:02:58Do you want to explain to me why Bryce is naked and shiny?

01:03:01Hugo, I don't appreciate you talking about my body like that.

01:03:04Yeah, I'm so sorry about this.

01:03:07Excuse us.

01:03:11Bryce's back was already hurt, and you're the one who refused to give him a bath.

01:03:14So giving him a massage, that's the least I could do after what happened last night.

01:03:18I knocked the mugger out, and I woke up on the floor.

01:03:20Okay, look, I'm not here to keep score, and honestly, a real man would just be happy that I'm safe.

01:03:27Unbelievable.

01:03:28I saved you, and you just want to take care of Bryce?

01:03:30God, you're imagining things.

01:03:32I choose you all the time.

01:03:34Sheila, would you mind giving me a sponge bath?

01:03:38I don't want to blow my back out.

01:03:40You want her to help you with what?

01:03:42Hey, Hugo, control yourself.

01:03:44The only reason why I'm giving him a bath is because he has oil all over him.

01:03:48What do you want him to do, slip and fall?

01:03:50That's all right, Sheila.

01:03:51Jealous people lash out sometimes.

01:03:53Hey, if you feel uneasy with Sheila giving me a bath, maybe you could sponge me.

01:03:58Sponge yourself, Bryce.

01:04:00Hey.

01:04:01Your choice.

01:04:02Come on, Sheila.

01:04:04But, uh, thanks for keeping it warm for me.

01:04:20I think you're, uh, missing a spot.

01:04:24Where?

01:04:25Under the towel.

01:04:35Hugo, the time has come for your sub-training.

01:04:38Is your wife okay with you leaving for the whole year?

01:04:40That's not of her concern.

01:04:42How's that?

01:04:43Because we're divorced.

01:04:46What do you mean, divorced?

01:04:53Who?

01:04:54Or are you telling me we're divorced?

01:04:56Some slut you're trying to cheat with?

01:05:00Sheila, it's time I tell you.

01:05:02We are officially divorced.

01:05:05No.

01:05:06No, that can't be.

01:05:08You signed the paperwork already.

01:05:11That's impossible.

01:05:13I don't sign things.

01:05:14You did.

01:05:16You signed it this morning in the kitchen.

01:05:18Yeah.

01:05:20Yeah.

01:05:20I'll be right there.

01:05:22No, that makes no sense.

01:05:25Hugo.

01:05:27I'm so sorry if I made you uncomfortable.

01:05:30You know what?

01:05:31It's fine, Bryce.

01:05:32I was just leaving.

01:05:34Really?

01:05:35Well, great.

01:05:36So we're all good then.

01:05:38Sheila says mine's a lot bigger.

01:05:40How do you feel for yourself if you want to?

01:05:45Oh!

01:05:46Oh, my God!

01:05:48Hugo!

01:05:52I am so sorry about him.

01:05:56Okay.

01:05:57Oh, my God.

01:06:00Is he going to watch me helicopter?

01:06:01You snotty boy.

01:06:05We're finished, Sheila.
