00:00The rabbit fell in the river.
00:01Paddle.
00:04Miss Eleza, the last time Leo said that many words was two years ago.
00:08The young master didn't speak a single word until he was three.
00:11Last year he said his first word.
00:13But even now he only says a few words to Mr. Morelli and rarely to anyone else.
00:17The longest any previous caregiver lasted was one week.
00:21Why did they leave?
00:24Leo is difficult.
00:27I went into the room, sat down quietly beside him, picked up a block, and placed it next
00:32to his castle.
00:34He glanced at it.
00:36Then he picked up my block and tossed it aside.
00:39I picked up another block.
00:41This time I didn't put it on his castle.
00:44I put it on a tiny swing set beside it.
00:47Does Bunny want to go on the swing?
01:02Bunny says it was fun.
01:07Miss Alara, you're the first person Leo hasn't thrown things at.
01:10Throwing blocks doesn't count?
01:11The previous caregiver's got vases.
01:12Fair enough.
01:13So the 200 grand wasn't going to come easy.
01:16Mr. Moretti will be back tonight.
01:18He'll interview you himself.
01:22Miss Alara, Mr. Moretti is back.
01:29The moment I saw his face, only one thought crossed my mind.
01:34This guy was insanely handsome.
01:38It would have been easier if he hadn't been wiping down a pistol.
01:42You're the new one.
01:44Yes.
01:45I'm Alara.
01:48Education?
01:49Master in medical research, minor in child psychology.
01:53With background like that, why be a nanny?
01:57I need the money.
01:58The butler told you about Leo?
02:00Yes.
02:01Eight caregivers before you.
02:02The longest lasted seven days.
02:04How long do you think you'll last?
02:06I don't know.
02:07But he didn't throw a vase at me this afternoon.
02:11One month probation.
02:12The butler will go over the rules.
02:14Leo's routine can't be disrupted.
02:16He doesn't like strangers touching him.
02:18Don't force him to speak.
02:19One more thing.
02:20The third floor is my room.
02:21Stay out.
02:22Understood.
02:24You can go.
02:27Mr. Moretti, this Miss Alara is remarkably composed.
02:31I shut the bedroom door and dropped onto the bed.
02:35Funny.
02:36Yesterday, I was kicked out of my marital home.
02:39Now, I was sitting in a mansion worth hundreds of millions.
02:43Then my phone buzzed.
02:45My mother's medical bill was due.
02:48A hundred and twenty thousand dollars.
02:51I inhaled slowly and texted the butler.
02:54Is it possible to get an advance on my pay, please?
02:57Two minutes later, he replied.
02:58Our Don said that pays from day one.
03:01At two hundred grand a month, that's about sixty six hundred a day.
03:04You'll get it tomorrow.
03:06That's good.
03:07Survive first.
03:09Everything else could wait.
03:15Good morning.
03:16He didn't respond.
03:17I walked over and looked out the window, too.
03:19Nice day.
03:19There's fog over the lake.
03:21Still nothing.
03:21I didn't push.
03:22I turned and headed to the kitchen.
03:23I turned and headed to the kitchen.
03:27Mr. Moretti has left for the day.
03:29Leo usually has milk, eggs, and toast.
03:38Kiddo, breakfast time.
03:50Dear little rabbit, you also think toast goes well with milk, don't you?
03:55Yes.
03:56Adding an egg will make little kids strong.
03:58I see.
03:58I pulled out my phone and scrolled through my mother's medical records.
04:02Leo reached for a piece of toast.
04:04I pretended not to notice.
04:06He finished the whole slice and drank half the glass of milk.
04:16What are you looking at?
04:17I nearly dropped my phone.
04:19He spoke.
04:20The butler said he barely talked to anyone except Mr. Moretti and only a few words at a time.
04:25I forced my voice to stay even.
04:27Just some medical information.
04:28Who's sick?
04:29My mom.
04:30I don't have a mom.
04:32Well, if you ever don't feel well, you can tell me.
04:35I know a little about that stuff.
04:36After breakfast, the butler came up to collect the tray.
04:40When he saw the milk glass half empty, he nearly lost his footing.
04:44Miss Alayda, Leo usually only takes two bites at breakfast.
04:49He ate a whole slice of toast today.
04:55The number I didn't recognize.
04:59Hello?
05:00Alara.
05:01Ryan, my ex-fiancé.
05:03How did you get this number?
05:04I've always had it.
05:05Alara, I'm calling about something important.
05:07You and I have nothing important.
05:09Your mom's hospital bill.
05:11You're running out of time, aren't you?
05:14Who told you that?
05:15Your father.
05:16He said you're handling everything alone and don't even have a place to stay.
05:20Alara, Ryan and I talked it over.
05:22We can help with your mom's medical bills.
05:23On one condition.
05:25You have to be Victoria's bridesmaid.
05:29What?
05:31We're getting married next month.
05:33I want you as my bridesmaid.
05:35You two are sisters.
05:37It'll look good to everyone.
05:38You're using my wedding date, my wedding planner, my dress, and now you want me as the bridesmaid?
05:44Don't make it sound so ugly.
05:46It benefits you too.
05:47We'll cover all of your mother's treatment costs.
05:50Ryan, do I look that easy to walk over?
05:52Alara.
05:57You're not happy?
05:59I'm fine.
06:01Keep drawing.
06:02Then he grabbed my finger and pointed at it.
06:04Nora!
06:07At noon, I got a call from the hospital.
06:12Miss Alara, your mother's medical bill must be paid by 5 p.m. today or will be forced to suspend
06:18part of her treatment.
06:19I had $47 plus a few days pay.
06:22Nowhere near enough.
06:23I called everyone I could think of.
06:25Sorry, things are tight right now.
06:26I wish I could help.
06:29Bad timing, hon.
06:30I just bought a car.
06:31Alara, you should ask someone else.
06:32Your uncle's been sick and it's cost us a lot.
06:35For the first time, I felt like I was about to break.
06:43Miss Alara.
06:45What is it?
06:46Mr. Morelli asked me to tell you your salary has been advanced for a month.
06:49It's in your account.
06:50I froze.
06:51I pulled out my phone and saw the bank notification.
06:54$200,000 received.
06:55Please pass my thanks to Mr. Morelli.
06:58No need to thank me.
06:59Alex had come back at some point.
07:01Just take good care of Leo.
07:05$200,000.
07:07My mom was going to be okay.
07:12I rushed to the hospital and paid the bill.
07:20Alara, where did you get the money?
07:22I found a job.
07:24The pay is good, Mom.
07:25Don't worry.
07:26What kind of job?
07:27Taking care of a little boy.
07:29Alara, your father came by.
07:31He said Victoria is getting married and told me not to hold a grudge.
07:33He also said if you'd agree to be the bridesmaid, they'd cover the surgery.
07:36Mom, I already paid for the surgery.
07:37We don't need their money.
07:39I've dragged you down.
07:40No.
07:42Focus on getting better.
07:44Let me handle the rest.
07:45By the time I left the hospital, it was dark.
07:48I stood at the curb, hailing a cab.
07:50A white car pulled up in front of me.
07:52Victoria sat in the passenger seat.
07:54Alara?
07:55What are you doing here?
07:56Ryan was behind the wheel.
08:00Visiting Mom.
08:01Oh, Ryan and I came to see her, too.
08:03Funny running into you.
08:08By the way, did Ryan mention the bridesmaid thing?
08:11Have you thought about it?
08:13No.
08:15Alara, Ryan and I really do love each other.
08:17You can't stay bitter forever.
08:19I'm not bitter.
08:19I'm just not interested.
08:20Alara, Victoria's being generous.
08:23Don't be ungrateful.
08:24Ungrateful?
08:25You slept with my stepsister in our wedding house,
08:27and now you're marrying her in my wedding dress.
08:28Alara, don't get cocky.
08:30Your mother's still in the hospital.
08:31What about getting on your knees and beg?
08:32Maybe I'll throw you enough cash to cover her bills.
08:34Dream on.
08:35I turned to leave, but Ryan grabbed my wrist and raised his hand.
08:38Alara strode over and knocked Ryan's hand away.
08:41I pay my employees well.
08:42More than enough to cover her mother's bills.
08:45Who the hell are you to make her kneel and beg?
