00:00Ooh, baby, I think I would just listen to your mind.
00:10Ethan, I'm back early.
00:12Surprise!
00:13I'm taking a cab to your villa right now.
00:18What's wrong?
00:19Claire's back.
00:20Pack your things and wipe every trace.
00:22She can't see a hint of you.
00:24Hurry up.
00:26Claire.
00:29Five years ago in Seattle, Ethan Black fell for Claire, the broke girl who played innocent.
00:34He threw cash around like paper just to win her over.
00:37Don't insult me with your money.
00:46Here you go.
00:47Get Claire to take the money and I'll sponsor you too.
00:50Desperate for money, I agreed.
00:52From then on, both Claire and I were bankrolled by the Black family.
00:55The difference?
00:56Ethan begged Claire to take his millions, while I had to beg Ethan just to get his scraps.
01:04But it didn't matter.
01:06His funding was enough for college.
01:08That was all I needed.
01:10After graduation, Claire went to London to study.
01:17I joined the Black group.
01:19Under the skies of paying back my debt, Ethan dragged me into his bed, making me Claire's
01:24stand-in.
01:25What are you standing there for?
01:27Move it.
01:28You actually thought you were the lady here?
01:30Pack up and get out before I bring Claire back.
01:36Five years.
01:37Everyone knew that once his true love returned, I'd be discarded like trash.
01:42But they don't know.
01:44I've been waiting for this day.
01:49Miss Carter, this is fantastic.
01:51We're thrilled you're joining us.
01:55She said yes?
01:56Mm-hmm.
01:58She accepted?
01:59Yes!
01:59I'm finally going to see Emily again!
02:01Great.
02:02I'll arrange someone right away to book your flight.
02:05Make it next week.
02:06I still have some loose ends to tie up at work.
02:08Sure, Miss Carter.
02:14Forget college, girl.
02:15I'm not paying a dime for your tuition.
02:17Get home and find a husband.
02:19Move it!
02:19Let go of me!
02:20I don't need your money.
02:21Let me go!
02:30Don't insult me with your money.
02:33Here you go.
02:34Get Claire to take the money, and I'll sponsor you too.
02:41Hello?
02:42Claire's home.
02:43She's craving your cooking.
02:44Come over and make dinner.
02:45Sure.
02:47Ethan was my way out.
02:48My only spark of hope.
02:50He didn't care about me, but he gave me a future.
02:53I refused to walk away with a tab unpaid.
02:56Emily!
02:57Long time no see!
02:58Still the exact same girl.
03:00And you look even more pretty.
03:02Get cooking.
03:03Don't keep Claire waiting.
03:05Okay.
03:07Oh, what's the rush?
03:08Emily and I need to catch up.
03:09By the way, Emily, are you still staying in that maid's room downstairs?
03:13Yeah.
03:14Strange.
03:15Then why did I find your clothes in my bedroom upstairs?
03:17You two weren't doing anything secret, were you?
03:20Look at that wild imagination of yours.
03:21Emily moved out ages ago.
03:23Relax.
03:23I was just kidding.
03:25Go rest.
03:26I'll call you when dinner's ready.
03:27Okay.
03:28Okay.
03:39Claire suspects we slept together.
03:41It bothers her.
03:42Emily, get a boyfriend.
03:44Put her mind at ease.
03:45Sure.
03:46I'll keep looking.
03:47His precious first love is back.
03:49It's time for me to leave.
03:54Wow, this smells amazing.
03:56I missed your cooking so much while I was abroad.
03:58I finally get to eat it again.
04:00If you love it, I'll have her cook for you every day.
04:03Mm-hmm.
04:06We're having a welcome back reunion party with old friends tonight.
04:09They'll be drinking.
04:10Drive my car and pick us up later.
04:11Mm.
04:13Ethan, Emily's our classmate.
04:14How could you treat me like a driver?
04:15It's just my job.
04:17I always knew my place in his charity scheme.
04:20I was the third wheel.
04:21The sidekick behind their fairy tale.
04:23The servant on call 24-7.
04:24My feelings never meant shit.
04:26See?
04:27Emily never says no to me.
04:29This is the play.
04:31Ethan.
04:32Are you and Emily really done for good?
04:34What do you think?
04:36Watch your mouths tonight.
04:37Don't bring this up in front of Claire.
04:39She won't like it.
04:40Ethan's the ultimate devoted lover.
04:42Loved Claire in college.
04:43Loves her now.
04:44Being with Emily is just using a cheap, warm body.
04:48Ready to kick her out the second Claire landed.
04:51Look at Emily now.
04:52All polished in class.
04:54Who'd guess she was once a broke college bid scrubbing floors?
04:57And she's so obsessed with you.
04:59Completely obedient.
05:00Does whatever you ask.
05:01You really throwing that away?
05:03Emily's fine.
05:05Submissive.
05:05Fun to kill time with.
05:07But Claire's back now.
05:10Time to clear out the trash.
05:12Now I just need Claire to make it official.
05:15After all.
05:16She's the only girl I've ever truly loved.
05:22Emily!
05:23Emily, why aren't you going in?
05:37Oh shit, we're dead.
05:40Did Emily hear that?
05:41Is she going to blow this place up?
05:42They're terrified.
05:45But I know what Ethan and I are transactional.
05:48I won't let foolish feelings cloud my head or overestimate my place.
05:54Sorry I'm late.
05:55Please, carry on.
05:59She doesn't care at all?
06:02Emily, why are you sitting way over there?
06:04Come sit with us.
06:06I'm fine right here.
06:08Now that everyone's here, let's play a game.
06:10Dice, lose her drinks.
06:11Sure, but I just got back and I suck at this.
06:15Go easy on me.
06:19Let's go.
06:20Your call?
06:21Low.
06:23Claire, you lost.
06:24Bottoms up.
06:31I'll drink for her.
06:44Mr. Black, to a fruitful partnership.
06:48I can't drink tonight.
06:49She'll take it for me.
06:52Mr. Black, to a fruitful partnership.
07:02So this is how Ethan acts when he actually loves someone.
07:05It doesn't matter.
07:06In five years as his pet, I never cared about his love anyway.
07:10All right, man.
07:11Stop.
07:13Remember last time you got wasted and went wild?
07:16Thank God Emily was there to tame you.
07:20I need to use the restroom.
07:25Bathroom break.
07:29Oh, got a call.
07:32Hearing your friends talk about how close you are with Emily makes me sick.
07:36Hey, you've known Emily forever.
07:38Besides, if I've got you, why would I look at anyone else?
07:44Didn't you see the guys rooting for us tonight?
07:46I still need to test you out a bit more.
07:54So, found yourself a boyfriend yet?
08:01Emily, you're not stalling, are you?
08:03If you ruin things between Claire and me, you know the price you'll pay.
08:06Don't worry.
08:07I'm working on it.
08:08I'll stay out of your sight from now on.
08:10Ethan, you gave me so much over the years.
08:12So, in these final days, I'll help you get everything you ever wanted.
08:18I tell you to get a boyfriend and you just do it?
08:21So obedient?
08:22Ethan?
08:25Make sure he's the right fit.
08:26Don't just settle.
08:27Ethan, I'm exhausted.
08:29Drive me home?
08:31Sure.
08:32Get the car.
08:34Okay.
08:35Okay.
08:42Whatever you want, just say the word.
08:44It's yours.
08:45Hmm.
08:47Here.
08:49Already?
08:50Ethan, I have so much left to tell you.
08:52Why don't you come upstairs?
08:54Easy.
08:55We've got time.
08:56Don't push me.
08:57I might just lose control.
09:00You naughty boy.
09:04Claire's still so pure.
09:06She flushes at the slightest touch.
09:07How could I ever bring myself to defile her?
09:10No.
09:11Please.
09:12Don't.
09:13Ethan's right.
09:14Every second with him was just paying off my debt.
09:17Get to the office early tomorrow.
09:18Mr. Hayes quit.
09:20New management announcement.
09:21Okay.
09:27I heard Mr. Hayes resigned.
09:30The director of strategic project seat is wide open.
09:33Emily, you're the top performer in this entire company.
09:36That director's seat is as good as yours.
09:38Exactly.
09:39Emily's already the vice director.
09:41We all know what she's capable of.
09:43She gets my vote.
09:44Same here.
09:45Absolutely.
09:47Actually.
09:48Hey, Mr. Black is here.
09:51As you all know, Mr. Hayes has stepped down as director of strategic projects.
09:56I am here to announce our new director.
09:58Please welcome Claire Bennett.
10:03Who is she?
10:04What's going on?
10:05Hi, everyone.
10:06I'm Claire.
10:08I don't have much experience in project planning, but I promise to learn fast.
10:12What?
10:13Zero experience and she gets to be director?
10:15Mr. Black, with all due respect, the director position should go to whoever is actually qualified.
10:21Why?
10:21Yeah, Emily is the obvious choice.
10:23Enough.
10:24Are you questioning my authority?
10:26Claire may be new to this specific role, but she studied in London and won numerous international awards.
10:31I trust her completely.
10:34Emily, since you're so experienced, you will assist Claire and get her up to speed.
10:40Understood.
10:41This is so demoralizing.
10:43This is insane.
10:44Emily, why did you agree to that?
10:46That is so unfair.
10:47It's just business.
10:50Claire, right this way.
10:51I'll show you around.
10:52Thanks a lot, Emily.
10:54This is the planning department.
10:57These three are the current proposals from our partners.
11:02Emily, go fetch me a coffee.
11:06Emily's the associate director.
11:08Doesn't she have an assistant?
11:09Why the hell is she the one running Aries?
11:11Hey, easy.
11:12I'm sure Emily has her reasons.
11:17What is wrong with her?
11:18How is she just taking this?
11:19Don't get involved.
11:21It's pure bullshit.
11:24Your coffee, Claire.
11:26Emily, what about these three contracts?
11:29I'd strongly pass on these.
11:31Remote site, tight clock, outdoors.
11:33With Seattle's weather lately, safety is a gamble we can't take.
11:37We're a business, Emily.
11:38We don't turn money away.
11:40Move forward with them.
11:42Okay.
11:43Claire, I really think you should reconsider.
11:48Who's the director here, Emily?
11:50You or me?
11:51Get to work.
11:54Don't forget who saved you, Emily.
11:55Without me, your alcoholic father would have pulled you from school and sold you off to pay his gambling debts.
12:01You got Ethan's charity because of me.
12:03You owe me your life.
12:08Stay the hell away from Ethan.
12:10Don't worry, Claire.
12:11I know my place.
12:13I don't touch what isn't mine.
12:15Empty words, Emily.
12:17Delivery from Miss Emily Carter.
12:19Two dozen red roses from your boyfriend.
12:23I'm Emily.
12:30Oh, Emily.
12:32Why didn't you tell us you had a boyfriend?
12:34Here I thought you were still hopelessly in love with Ethan.
12:37Mr. Black is just my benefactor, nothing more.
12:39My boyfriend treats me very well.
12:41She replaced me that fast?
12:43I thought she'd wait forever.
12:45Bring him to my birthday party this weekend.
12:48Ethan wouldn't mind at all, right?
12:50Sure.
12:50We've known each other for years.
12:52Bring him by.
12:53Let's see who he is.
12:55I will.
13:11Sorry, I'm late.
13:14Is this actually you?
13:23Yeah.
13:24I was a lot thinner back then.
13:26You remember the gig, right?
13:28Don't blow my cover.
13:29Got it.
13:30I'll put on a great show, promise.
13:32Let's go.
13:39Emily!
13:40Emily!
13:42So, this is the mystery boyfriend.
13:44Quite the catch.
13:46What do you do?
13:48Uh, construction supply.
13:50Oh, wow.
13:51What a perfect match for you, Emily.
13:54This is him?
13:55Are you completely blind, Emily?
13:57Isn't this what you wanted?
14:00Ethan, we should be happy for her.
14:02Come on, your fireworks show is starting.
14:07How'd I do?
14:08Nailed it, right?
14:10Thanks.
14:12I just sent the payment.
14:16Pleasure doing business with you.
14:25Beautiful!
14:27Ethan, look!
14:28It's beautiful!
14:39$500,000.
14:40Cut all ties with her.
14:43Mom.
14:45I'm rich!
14:47I'm rich!
14:48I got the cash, baby!
14:50I promise to fund your future.
14:52That means I protect you.
15:06Ethan loves Claire.
15:08The whole world knows it.
15:10But that I loved Ethan, only my past self remembers.
15:21Hello?
15:22Ms. Carter.
15:23Don't forget.
15:24Your flight to San Francisco tomorrow at 3pm.
15:27Don't worry.
15:29I gave you my word.
15:30I'll be there.
15:33Perfect.
15:34Everything's set on our end.
15:35We're just waiting for you to take the lead.
15:38It's time to say goodbye.
15:42Ethan, thank you for everything these past five years.
15:45You put me through college.
15:48Gave me a career.
15:49And pulled me out of that dead-end logging town.
15:52You gave my life color.
15:56I know I was just collateral.
15:59Just a cover story so Claire would take your money.
16:07So I could run your errands and carry your messages.
16:12Yet the boy who rescued me in my dreams was always the moon I could never touch.
16:18Now it's time for those feelings to burn out.
16:21Just like these fireworks.
16:27Ethan, I need your signature on a document.
16:31What document?
16:48Damn it.
16:54He's drugged. He can't have gone far. Split up and cut him off.
17:00Where is he? I just saw him run this way.
17:03Move!
17:04So what?
17:08No!
17:12Give yourself to me.
17:20You're six weeks pregnant.
17:22The baby looks healthy.
17:24You sure you want an abortion?
17:25Of course!
17:27She doesn't even know the father.
17:28She's a broke bar weight who can't pay rent.
17:31How can she raise a baby?
17:34How much is the abortion?
17:35Eight hundred dollars.
17:42Don't look at me. I don't have money for you.
17:48Both your brothers are dead.
17:50Give us an heir, Victor, or our bloodline dies with you.
17:55He's right. The elders are circling. Without an heir, they'll never bow to you.
18:03I'm pregnant. It's yours.
18:05I can't afford the abortion.
18:07You're the father, so pay half.
18:08Damn, this nightmare again.
18:11Mom trusted her snake, aborted me, then got beaten to death in the slums.
18:17Who said that?
18:19Emily, Claire's reputation will be ruined if this gets out.
18:22She has a bright future ahead. She needs the client's trust.
18:27And I can't let my father think she's incompetent.
18:29So, what do you want me to do?
18:33Take the blame.
18:34Tell the board and the press you were in charge.
18:37I'll compensate you later.
18:39A scapegoat?
18:40Haven't I played that role enough over the last five years?
18:43And yet, you don't show a single trace of remorse.
18:46It's fine, Ethan.
18:48If Emily refuses, I'll take the fall myself.
18:51I'll just leave the country, so I stop embarrassing you.
18:55Claire, wait!
18:58Emily, is this really that hard for you?
19:00Handling crisis is literally what you do best.
19:04What?
19:04You're saying no?
19:08Fine.
19:09I'll do it.
19:14Why do I feel so guilty seeing her walk away like that?
19:17Did I go too far?
19:20Ethan, stop stressing.
19:22You said it yourself, Emily handles stuff like this all the time.
19:27It's about to rain and it's my birthday.
19:29Come on, let's have some cakes.
19:31Right.
19:32Don't feel guilty.
19:33Emily loves me.
19:34She's not going anywhere.
19:36I'll just buy her something nice in a few days.
19:43Miss Victoria, I'm Emily Carter from Black Group.
19:51Happy birthday!
19:54Happy birthday!
19:59You have the nerve to show your face here?
20:02Do you even realize the damage you've done to our company?
20:06Miss Victoria, I will cover every cent of your losses.
20:11Cover it.
20:12You couldn't pay this off if you sold your soul.
20:16Miss Victoria, please! Miss Victoria!
20:19Happy birthday!
20:22Wonder how Emily's handling things outside.
20:26Mr. Miller!
20:28Mr. Miller, please!
20:34Everyone, look at Black Group's official site.
20:37Emily just posted a statement, resigning effective immediately.
20:42Resigning?
20:46What the hell game is Emily playing now?
20:49Is Ethan actually mad about her leaving?
20:55Look, I know yesterday was rough on you.
20:57But you don't need to quit.
20:59Take some paid time off and get some rest.
21:03I'm taking a permanent break.
21:06Fine.
21:07Just let me know whenever you're ready to come back.
21:11This is everything I've saved over the years.
21:13It pays back every cent you spent helping me out.
21:16Emily, I never asked you to pay me back.
21:19Are you still mad that I made you take the fall for Claire?
21:22Take it.
21:23I hate owing anyone.
21:24Consider this my peace of mind.
21:26I told you, Claire is new to this industry.
21:29A scandal would ruin her.
21:31But you're a veteran.
21:32Everyone trusts you.
21:33You handled it perfectly anyway, so why blow a minor issue out of proportion?
21:37The company took a massive hit.
21:40Me resigning is the cleanest way to fight the press.
21:43I was leaving anyway.
21:46Consider this my final favor to you.
21:48That, and staying out of you and Claire's way.
21:51Isn't that what you wanted all along?
21:54Goodbye, Ethan.
22:00Emily, if you ever need anything,
22:01call me.
22:03We've known each other too long to become strangers.
22:05Okay?
22:14Oh, Emily.
22:15Go brew me a coffee and bring it to my office.
22:18Find someone else, Claire.
22:20I quit.
22:21Fletching your coffee isn't in my job description anymore.
22:25Don't forget, Emily.
22:27You're only breathing Ethan's air because of me.
22:29Know your place and stay out of our world.
22:32Be careful, Claire.
22:33That saintly, money-doesn't-matter act of yours might crumble if you push it too far.
22:44Goodbye, Ethan.
22:45Thank you for giving me a new life.
22:46But most of all, thank you for letting me finally cut ties with you today with zero regrets.
23:03Airport, please.
23:24Congratulations, Ethan.
23:26You finally got what you wanted.
23:33Claire and I are official, celebrating tonight.
23:36She wanted me to invite you.
23:41Claire and I are together.
23:43She said since you two have known each other for years, having your blessing would make it complete.
23:47Pass. Enjoy your moment. Congratulations.
23:55Are you still pouting over last time? Emily, since when did you become so petty?
24:03I'm not. I'm just busy. I wish you both the best. Goodbye.
24:10We're adults. No need for messy blockings or scenes. Silence is enough.
24:27Attention passengers to San Francisco, California. Counter check-in is now open.
24:32Please proceed immediately. My debt is paid.
24:34My new chapter begins now. And the future looks bright.
24:53Ethan, Emily must just be busy. She'd never ignore you otherwise.
24:57Maybe we can just invite her to the wedding instead.
25:00Right. Everything she has came from me. She can't survive without me.
25:04So why do I feel like if I don't see her today, I'll lose her forever?
