FunTranscript
00:00:00My husband is trying to kill me because five years ago, when the yacht went down, he saved
00:00:05me instead of Chloe, the woman he'd always loved.
00:00:08Open the door!
00:00:09Ethan, unlock it!
00:00:11Chloe was this scared when she died in the ocean, too.
00:00:14Back then, I was his fiancée.
00:00:16I thought when he reached for me, after Chloe died, he married me anyway.
00:00:24Then he spent five years making me pay for surviving.
00:00:31He took control of my money.
00:00:33He took away my job.
00:00:35Whenever I couldn't take it anymore, he'd remind me my life was bought with another woman's
00:00:40death.
00:00:41Today, he finally agreed to take me to get a divorce.
00:00:45Instead, he drove straight into the ocean.
00:00:52You were the one who chose to save me!
00:00:53Why should I die for it?
00:00:57I finally understood.
00:00:58The day he pulled me out of the water was the day he started hating me for not being the
00:01:02one who died.
00:01:11Olivia, grab the rail!
00:01:14This isn't the car.
00:01:16It's five years ago, the night before we got married.
00:01:22The water's rising!
00:01:23Ethan!
00:01:24I was back at the moment he had to choose who to save.
00:01:26Not both of you!
00:01:27It won't hold!
00:01:34I can't swim!
00:01:36Ethan, please don't leave me here!
00:01:39Olivia, you first!
00:01:41Hurry!
00:01:50Last time, I thought if I took his hand, I'd live.
00:01:53I had no idea five years of hell were waiting for me.
00:01:56What are you waiting for?
00:01:57Take Chloe!
00:02:03Save her!
00:02:11Hang on, I'll get to shore and bring help!
00:02:16He didn't argue.
00:02:17He just turned and left.
00:02:18Like he was afraid I'd change my mind.
00:02:20He'd been waiting for this all along, for me to hand him that choice.
00:02:25Last time, Chloe was the one left behind, so Ethan came back with help.
00:02:29But this time, will he even remember me?
00:02:32Chloe was always the one he wanted to save.
00:02:38There was no time to think.
00:02:39I gave her my place.
00:02:41I wasn't giving her my life, too.
00:02:50In my last life, he always said I stole Chloe's chance to live.
00:02:55Tonight, I'm finally off his boat, and I still want to live.
00:03:02I can't swim.
00:03:04That life vest was the only thing that didn't let go of me.
00:03:16When seawater filled my mouth, I realized dying once doesn't make you less afraid.
00:03:21I still wanted to live.
00:03:22I still wanted to see Daybreak on shore.
00:03:29Help!
00:03:31Someone's out here!
00:03:32I screamed until I tasted blood in my throat, but as long as that light was still on,
00:03:36I couldn't give up.
00:03:42Finally, someone saw me.
00:03:48Person overboard, starboard side.
00:03:50Slow down.
00:03:51Launch the rescue platform.
00:04:00You're safe.
00:04:02Don't stand up yet.
00:04:04The second someone touched me, I started shaking even harder.
00:04:08Out there, I didn't have room to be afraid.
00:04:12The boat sank.
00:04:14I was clinging to him and couldn't let go.
00:04:17Don't be afraid.
00:04:18Medical staff will be here any second.
00:04:21That soaked sleeve was the only thing I'd held to in so long that didn't pull away.
00:04:33Want me to help?
00:04:42Can you go a little slower?
00:04:45The cut wasn't deep, but when he asked them to slow down for me, I broke.
00:04:53Does it hurt?
00:04:55Good.
00:04:55Chloe hurt a thousand times more when she died.
00:04:58She's dead because of you.
00:05:00Back then, saying I was in pain only made him angrier.
00:05:04But this stranger saw me flitch and stopped.
00:05:10Still hurts?
00:05:12No.
00:05:14Is there anyone I should call?
00:05:16Family or your fiancé?
00:05:18Not him.
00:05:19Not yet.
00:05:21Not yet.
00:05:22I'm Olivia.
00:05:23I still don't know your name.
00:05:25Noah Reed.
00:05:28Mr. Reed, the ambulance is ready on shore.
00:05:32Something about that name felt familiar.
00:05:38Search and rescue has her location.
00:05:40Please stay here for now.
00:05:48Ethan, are you going to regret taking me first?
00:06:02No.
00:06:08I'll only be grateful you made it this time.
00:06:12Another boat picked up a woman.
00:06:13We've confirmed she's Olivia Bennett.
00:06:16Where is she?
00:06:25The harbor redevelopment project meeting needs to be rescheduled.
00:06:28Sterling Corporation wants to keep today's slot.
00:06:30Have the project team reschedule it.
00:06:32They can wait their turn.
00:06:35Understood.
00:06:37That harbor redevelopment project, is it yours?
00:06:40Reed Capital is the lead investor.
00:06:42I remember now.
00:06:44In my last life, Ethan rewrote the proposal over a dozen times.
00:06:47Just to get a meeting with the head of Reed Capital.
00:06:51What did the doctor say?
00:06:53They want to keep me under observation a little longer.
00:06:56Then there's no rush.
00:07:00The man Ethan couldn't even get a meeting with stayed crowd on the deck, just letting me hold on to
00:07:05his sleeve.
00:07:19Olivia!
00:07:24Mr. Reed, thank you for saving my fiancee.
00:07:29He said it so naturally.
00:07:32Like leaving me in the ocean was just putting his property further away.
00:07:35And now he was here to take it back.
00:07:37Come on.
00:07:38Let's go back.
00:07:46No.
00:07:49I'll make my own arrangements.
00:07:55I got my life back.
00:07:57This time, I won't put it in anyone else's hands.
00:08:03So you're on Mr. Reed's boat.
00:08:07Our yacht just happened to go down and Mr. Reed just happened to be nearby.
00:08:12Weren't you trying to land his project?
00:08:15She said it softly, like an innocent question.
00:08:18But I heard what she meant.
00:08:19Somehow, surviving was what I had to explain.
00:08:22What are you trying to say?
00:08:23I just think we should be clear on what actually happened.
00:08:26I gave her the chance to live.
00:08:28The first thing she did after getting ashore was question why I was still alive.
00:08:32She has doubts about the accident.
00:08:34What was she just said in your report too?
00:08:38I wasn't accusing you.
00:08:40I'm just worried Ethan's project could be affected.
00:08:42Then say it clearly.
00:08:44What do you know?
00:08:47I felt for what Chloe had been through.
00:08:49That didn't mean I'd let her smear me.
00:08:52Olivia, she's a victim too.
00:08:54And I'm not?
00:08:56She just went through something terrifying.
00:08:58You don't need to come at her like this.
00:09:00The same tone.
00:09:01The same words.
00:09:03Familiar enough to make me sick.
00:09:05She could say anything cruel because she was scared.
00:09:07But if I asked why, somehow I was the one lacking compassion.
00:09:13My boat has a navigation log, including when we found her.
00:09:16If you need to verify it, we'll cooperate.
00:09:18The cause of the accident is still under investigation.
00:09:21We can't draw any conclusions yet.
00:09:26The doctor gave me discharge instructions and cleared me to leave.
00:09:28All I wanted now was to end this as fast as I could.
00:09:38What are you doing?
00:09:40Ending the engagement.
00:09:42I thought about the day he proposed.
00:09:44I said yes before he even finished.
00:09:45I was scared that if I waited, he'd give this good thing to someone else.
00:09:50You just went through a shock.
00:09:52You're not in any state to make a decision like this.
00:09:55I'll cancel the wedding.
00:09:56Anything we booked together, I'll send to you to deal with.
00:09:59Is this really because I saved Chloe first?
00:10:03I don't want this anymore.
00:10:09Let go.
00:10:10She's injured.
00:10:13He finally saw I was hurt.
00:10:15But I was done reaching for him.
00:10:17Waiting for care that came too late.
00:10:24I'll keep it for now.
00:10:26When you've calmed down, I'll give it back.
00:10:27Even taking it off to wash my hands,
00:10:29I'd check for it over and over.
00:10:32Now it was drifting farther and farther away.
00:10:38And I could finally unclench my hand.
00:10:46Olivia!
00:10:55The apartment was exactly as I'd left it before the yacht trip.
00:11:00Everything on that table was waiting for a happy bride-to-be to come home.
00:11:04But nothing was the same.
00:11:11Miss Bennett, are you sure you want to cancel the services booked under your name?
00:11:16Yes.
00:11:17Send me the final charges and anything still pending.
00:11:20I'll also notify Mr. Sterling about anything that was booked genuinely.
00:11:24Okay.
00:11:26I knew what flowers he hated.
00:11:27What desserts he wouldn't touch.
00:11:30Even which side he looked better on in photos.
00:11:33To avoid getting in the way of his work,
00:11:35I kept pushing my own hopes back.
00:11:38Back then, I used to picture us walking in hand in hand.
00:11:51I got the cancellation notice.
00:11:53Anything we booked together, you can handle with the planner directly.
00:11:56No.
00:11:57I already told her to put everything on hold.
00:12:00This time, I'll be involved in the wedding myself.
00:12:04And we'll do the honeymoon your way.
00:12:06That white lighthouse inn in Maine.
00:12:10Didn't you always want to stay there?
00:12:12Our anniversary is next month.
00:12:14Could we maybe-
00:12:15I don't have time for this.
00:12:18After that, I never brought up that inn again.
00:12:21But I kept the photo like it was holding a little space
00:12:24for a wish I couldn't say out loud.
00:12:26When did I ever tell you about that inn?
00:12:30You love the ocean.
00:12:31I remember you mentioning it.
00:12:32Just let me come in.
00:12:33I didn't find that inn until after we were married.
00:12:36How could Ethan know about it now?
00:12:38Just let me come in.
00:12:39I need to rest.
00:12:47I went through the travel journal again and again.
00:12:49There was nothing.
00:12:50I didn't put that photo in there until two years after we got married.
00:12:54I used to want so badly for him to remember just one thing I liked.
00:12:58But when he said it, all I felt was cold.
00:13:02That's when I started to wonder if he remembered that other life too.
00:13:12On the way here, I wondered if she'd hug me.
00:13:14She'd almost lost her daughter.
00:13:17The personal investment plan you proposed.
00:13:19The money goes to Sterling Corporation for the Harbor Redevelopment Project.
00:13:23I heard what happened out on the water.
00:13:25Why did you give up your spot?
00:13:27Do you realize how dangerous that was?
00:13:31And now you've suddenly called off the wedding?
00:13:34If this is how you make decisions, how can I trust you with anything bigger?
00:13:38When she asked about the accident, I thought she was finally worried about me.
00:13:42But all she saw was whether I'd still obey.
00:13:45The wedding is off and I'm pulling the investment.
00:13:48Those are separate issues.
00:13:50I know.
00:13:51So I made two separate decisions.
00:13:57You really came through for me this time.
00:13:59When I invested that money in his company in my last life, he smiled at me for once.
00:14:03He almost never praised me.
00:14:06That one line made me forget the money was my way out too.
00:14:11Later, if I wanted to spend my own money, I had to wait until he was in a good mood
00:14:15to ask.
00:14:16I couldn't even look at the cashier.
00:14:18I'd done nothing wrong, but it felt like I was asking for something I had no right to.
00:14:28Ethan is capable.
00:14:29You can't blow up everything just because he's still hung up on someone else.
00:14:33In my last life, when I wanted a divorce, she told me the same thing.
00:14:36I told her how humiliating it was.
00:14:39She still measured his value over mine, right up until I drowned.
00:14:43You can keep backing him.
00:14:45I'm re-arrogating the money.
00:14:47Without this partnership, you'll have to find new backing for your own project too.
00:14:51Then I'll find it.
00:15:01Your mother said you're not signing the agreement.
00:15:04Yes.
00:15:05You know this affects my project.
00:15:07Not my problem.
00:15:08You're still just angry.
00:15:09What do you want from me?
00:15:11Do I have to get on my knees and apologize?
00:15:13Even now, he still thinks I'm just angry.
00:15:16Years of giving in taught him he'd always get his way.
00:15:18Ethan, we're done.
00:15:27She knows exactly what you need.
00:15:29She's just using it to force your hand.
00:15:31Wait until Friday's gala.
00:15:33Once she sees you, she'll come around.
00:15:41She would have never gone this far before.
00:15:43Why now?
00:15:48If she still won't come, I can go with you.
00:15:59This is Olivia Bennett.
00:16:01I'll be attending Friday's gala.
00:16:02But I need an individual seat assignment.
00:16:04Of course.
00:16:05And one more thing.
00:16:06My engagement to Ethan Sterling is over.
00:16:09Don't introduce me as his fiancee anymore.
00:16:11I slowed down on purpose.
00:16:12This time, I wouldn't let them dismiss what I said as just a motion.
00:16:15Understood.
00:16:17I'll update the event file.
00:16:21I used to think being too clear would humiliate him.
00:16:24Now I know every bit of room I gave him became a trap for me.
00:16:30Back then, that title made me feel like I finally belonged.
00:16:34Now I just want my name back.
00:16:41Mr. Sterling wants ten minutes alone with you after the gala.
00:16:44Any project meeting goes through the review panel.
00:16:46No investment decisions will be made at the gala.
00:16:49Ms. Bennett will be there too.
00:16:50Her seat's already been changed to an individual assignment.
00:16:54Handle it the way she asked.
00:17:05I was afraid even a photo of it would look like I was asking for attention.
00:17:09Too many times, I just wanted concern and got asked if I was making a scene.
00:17:14Much better.
00:17:15I had the clothes from that night cleaned.
00:17:17I'll bring them to the gala on Friday.
00:17:20No rush.
00:17:22Things might get a little unpleasant there.
00:17:24That's okay.
00:17:25If you need me, let me know.
00:17:27He didn't decide for me or rush to fix everything.
00:17:29I could ask for help or try on my own first.
00:17:33Thanks for not asking if I'd really thought it through.
00:17:35Sounds like you've been thinking about this long enough.
00:17:38These past few days, everyone was waiting for me to change my mind.
00:17:43Only he actually heard me.
00:17:51I knew it.
00:17:52She's just upset.
00:17:54She's not really leaving me.
00:18:04I used to get nervous around Ethan.
00:18:06Part of me cared and part of me was afraid.
00:18:09But tomorrow, he's the one who should be nervous.
00:18:22You made it.
00:18:27This is my fiancee, Olivia.
00:18:29Just like before, he thought if he said it in public, I'd play along.
00:18:35Actually, our engagement is over.
00:18:41Don't mind her.
00:18:42Olivia's just being difficult.
00:18:44They've just been through an accident.
00:18:46Some things take time.
00:18:48Chloe, I didn't ask you to speak for me.
00:18:52Do you have to do this here?
00:18:53I already told you in private.
00:18:56I sent word too.
00:18:58Miss Bennett, your seat is this way.
00:19:06Mr. Reid, about our latest proposal, the review mod will respond officially.
00:19:12You okay to be up and around?
00:19:14It's not really affecting me anymore.
00:19:17If you're not feeling well, the lounge is right inside.
00:19:20I'd gone to so many events with him before.
00:19:22How long I stood there.
00:19:23How tired I was.
00:19:24I didn't know until now that caring how I feel doesn't stop the night.
00:19:34About the investment.
00:19:35You know I need that funding.
00:19:37We can renegotiate.
00:19:38Equity, terms, you decide.
00:19:40He was offering a lot.
00:19:41But I didn't just want the money back.
00:19:43I wanted back the part of me I'd kept giving up for him.
00:19:46We're not talking about that tonight.
00:19:49Looks like there's more going on with Noah than she's saying.
00:19:52No wonder she called off the engagement.
00:19:58What exactly are you to read?
00:20:02When you gave up on me, he saved me.
00:20:04So now you do whatever he says?
00:20:08This has nothing to do with Noah.
00:20:14Then we can set a new date.
00:20:16Whatever kind of life you want.
00:20:17We'll figure it out.
00:20:19This used to be all I wanted to hear.
00:20:21That he'd finally talk to me about our future.
00:20:23But I already survived that future alone.
00:20:25Put it away. I don't need it anymore.
00:20:27What else do you want me to do?
00:20:29You told me to save her first.
00:20:32I came back for you.
00:20:33Why can't you let it go?
00:20:36To him, it's just that night.
00:20:38But when I close my eyes, I see five years.
00:20:42And that car door that wouldn't open.
00:20:48Because you didn't just disappoint me.
00:20:52You let me die once.
00:21:01You...
00:21:02You remember?
00:21:13What do you want me to forget?
00:21:16His reaction...
00:21:17And that inn...
00:21:18Confirmed what I already suspected.
00:21:21What did you mean?
00:21:22When you said...
00:21:23You died once?
00:21:28I was the one left out there.
00:21:30What do you think that felt like?
00:21:35I thought the boat wouldn't hold much longer.
00:21:37I was going to get to shore first, then send people back.
00:21:40I never should have left you out there alone.
00:21:43That was on me.
00:21:44I'd waited a long time for his apology.
00:21:47And when it finally came...
00:21:48I didn't even know which time he meant.
00:21:51Olivia...
00:21:52You loved me for years.
00:21:54Why won't you forgive me?
00:21:56Trust me.
00:21:57I'll make it up to you.
00:22:00Then start by accepting the engagement is over.
00:22:05There's nothing left to talk about.
00:22:13Ever since I woke up again...
00:22:15Every time I see Ethan...
00:22:17I see his hands on that wheel.
00:22:19My body starts shaking before I can stop it.
00:22:25You okay?
00:22:26Yeah.
00:22:27Just tired.
00:22:28I'll have someone wait with you for your car.
00:22:35My car is right here.
00:22:38I already called one.
00:22:39If it's about the handoff, email me.
00:22:49She won't even get in your car now?
00:22:52Now when she sees me, she thinks of that night.
00:22:55Of me leaving her alone out on the water.
00:22:58Maybe she didn't want to be with you anymore.
00:23:01Maybe that's why she told you to save me.
00:23:04No.
00:23:05She loved me for years.
00:23:07That doesn't just disappear in a few days.
00:23:19Do you still have a table open for tomorrow night?
00:23:33You waited long enough.
00:23:35I have time now.
00:23:37That was before.
00:23:38Just dinner.
00:23:39I'm not asking for anything else.
00:23:42He was handing me back two hours, like that could make up for anything.
00:23:46But the woman who waited at that table, already gave him five years.
00:23:51Don't wait for me.
00:23:57Ms. Bennett already confirmed she won't be coming.
00:23:59Would you like me to clear the other setting?
00:24:02Wait a little longer.
00:24:09I'm not feeling well.
00:24:10Can you come over?
00:24:11Have the front desk call you a car to the hospital.
00:24:13I'm busy right now.
00:24:23I know what it feels like to sit there alone.
00:24:26But I already told him I wasn't coming.
00:24:29One night of waiting doesn't erase every time I waited for him.
00:24:50The clothes from that night and the blanket are all in there.
00:24:54Keep the blanket.
00:24:57You were wrapped up in it the whole time on the yacht.
00:25:01Was I holding on to it that tight?
00:25:03The clothes are fine.
00:25:04He never told me how awful I looked that night.
00:25:07Like he knew I'd already been embarrassed about it for a long time.
00:25:22I waited for you last night until the restaurant closed.
00:25:25I told you I wasn't coming.
00:25:32So you were with him?
00:25:34I don't owe you an explanation for what I do.
00:25:36Since when do you talk to me like that?
00:25:49If they come after you again, tell me.
00:25:54I fell for him because he stood up for me once.
00:25:57After that, no matter what he did, I always went back to that afternoon.
00:26:02You didn't used to be like this.
00:26:04You weren't either.
00:26:09Do you want me to stay with you?
00:26:11I do.
00:26:14Before, whenever Ethan showed up, I stopped seeing anyone else.
00:26:18Today, he finally saw there could be someone else standing beside me.
00:26:29If you do this on your own, you can't use the joint budget anymore.
00:26:36I ran the numbers again.
00:26:38The company covers base research.
00:26:40Anything over that, I pay myself.
00:26:42The cap's right there.
00:26:46Prove you can make it work.
00:26:48Not just that you can leave him.
00:26:53I still wanted to hear her say, I believe in you.
00:26:57But she'd already moved on to the next file.
00:27:00So I swallowed it and held on to the chance that was mine.
00:27:08Pier 3 on the east side.
00:27:10Has old damage.
00:27:12The new survey will flag it.
00:27:15Don't put any major facilities there.
00:27:18Has the official report been released?
00:27:21Not yet.
00:27:22Trust me.
00:27:25The inn could have been a coincidence.
00:27:27But if he even remembered a report that wasn't out yet,
00:27:30then he really had memories of that other life.
00:27:33I'll verify it.
00:27:35Olivia, I'm trying to help you.
00:27:37Then send me whatever official materials you can share.
00:27:47She actually listened when you talked?
00:27:50About the project?
00:27:53She's just too proud to let it go.
00:28:01He thought pointing out one problem would make me trust him again.
00:28:05But I remembered more than the answers he knew.
00:28:08I remembered what he did with my trust in the end.
00:28:18This is for you.
00:28:19It made me think of your boat.
00:28:29I really like it.
00:28:31I waited for him to call it childish.
00:28:33Or unnecessary.
00:28:35Before, I always had to be ready to defend my gifts.
00:28:51It's tail.
00:28:52It came like that.
00:28:53The person who made it said, that's what made it one of a kind.
00:29:07Back then, I met someone online.
00:29:10He said his family was rich, so I said I was a princess.
00:29:14Neither of us would admit we were just lonely.
00:29:17Did she ever send you anything else after that?
00:29:20No.
00:29:21The account suddenly went dark.
00:29:25You kept it all this time?
00:29:27I promised I wouldn't throw it away, even if it broke.
00:29:31I was afraid if I asked too soon, I'd mistake a coincidence for finding him again.
00:29:36But that patch of paint, I knew the second I touched it.
00:29:58I looked up that country you told me about.
00:30:01It doesn't exist.
00:30:03Then what about when your parents finally spent your birthday with you?
00:30:07That was fake too.
00:30:08I bought the cake myself.
00:30:10I thought that birthday didn't matter anymore.
00:30:12But he remembered the night I tried so hard to pretend I wasn't alone.
00:30:19Later, I figured maybe you were just embarrassed to tell me.
00:30:21I lost my phone.
00:30:23And I couldn't get the account back.
00:30:25I wasn't ignoring you.
00:30:26I know that now.
00:30:30I didn't recognize you that night.
00:30:32Your old photos were too blurry.
00:30:34I had braces.
00:30:36Even now, I wouldn't dare call the wrong girl a princess.
00:30:41Next time we meet, can it be for something other than thanking me?
00:30:46Then what?
00:30:48Because I want to take you out.
00:30:54I might not be ready that soon.
00:30:57Then we'll go slow.
00:31:00I didn't have to promise him a future tonight.
00:31:02I just had to admit I wanted to see him again.
00:31:06I'm free Sunday afternoon.
00:31:07See you soon.
00:31:23They're on a date?
00:31:24You still think she's waiting for you?
00:31:28She should be with me.
00:31:30What if she's already forgotten you?
00:31:42Want to check out the other side?
00:31:45No. I want to finish this.
00:31:48I don't want every ocean I see after this to come with his face.
00:31:53But standing here is harder than I thought.
00:31:57The photographer was on another boat.
00:31:59The people in the picture were rescued.
00:32:02Olivia.
00:32:04Did you two plan this?
00:32:06No.
00:32:10I need to talk to you.
00:32:12We have nothing to discuss.
00:32:17When I ask you to dinner, you're too busy.
00:32:19But when he asks, suddenly you have time?
00:32:24Why do you think he's being so nice to you?
00:32:27I loved him once.
00:32:29And he took it for granted.
00:32:33Now someone actually cares about me.
00:32:35And the first thing he does is question their motives.
00:32:40If you want to know what I mean, ask me.
00:32:43I'm pursuing her.
00:32:45Whether she wants that is up to her.
00:32:49She just went through an accident.
00:32:51This isn't the time to make that kind of decision.
00:32:54I'm not your patient.
00:33:02Still want to look around?
00:33:05Yeah.
00:33:06We still have tickets left.
00:33:19We've been working on this part for a long time.
00:33:24That was the first draft I did for Ethan.
00:33:28He said it was too detailed.
00:33:30No one would read it.
00:33:37That slide was mine.
00:33:41We used it when we worked together.
00:33:43No need to split hairs now.
00:33:45I've already confirmed what was shared.
00:33:47She doesn't get to claim my work.
00:33:51She was presenting it.
00:33:52She never said she made it.
00:33:54He always knew how to make me feel like I was fighting for something too small to matter.
00:33:59The ring.
00:34:00The money.
00:34:02Even my own work.
00:34:06Then clarify that.
00:34:07I'll handle it after the dinner.
00:34:08Don't make a scene.
00:34:10Ethan.
00:34:14Ethan, trust me.
00:34:17He's always put me in charge of this part.
00:34:29Sorry.
00:34:30One thing to add.
00:34:34I did the first draft.
00:34:39And I can explain why that corridor stayed.
00:34:48The businesses here are still open.
00:34:51If we close this off, construction will conflict with daily foot traffic.
00:35:03Olivia did help Ethan organize things back then.
00:35:06That was design work, not organizing.
00:35:09I knew what she was doing.
00:35:11If I stayed quiet, everyone would remember her as the lead and me as the help.
00:35:16Since the designers here, let her finish.
00:35:25Do you really have to prove yourself like this?
00:35:27I came to you first.
00:35:31I told you I'd take care of it.
00:35:33You always say that.
00:35:37I'm sorry.
00:35:38I made you uncomfortable.
00:35:41I was only trying to help him, then say it right.
00:35:44I already apologized.
00:35:46That's enough.
00:35:49I only wanted my name back.
00:35:52He looked at me like I was taking something from her.
00:35:57While you were worrying about her being embarrassed.
00:36:00Did you think about me at all?
00:36:07I'd still like to hear the rest about that corridor.
00:36:09If that's okay.
00:36:16Now Reed will back her up no matter what she says.
00:36:25Mr. Reed was pretty supportive last night.
00:36:30You must not be too worried about the outcome, right?
00:36:38What are you trying to say?
00:36:40Don't get me wrong.
00:36:41I'm just jealous.
00:36:43One yacht accident, and suddenly you get access to people no one else can even get a meeting with.
00:36:50Chloe.
00:36:51I was just worried people would talk, so I gave her a heads up.
00:36:55She'd stopped stealing credit.
00:36:57Now she was making people think that even if I did the work, I still didn't earn the opportunity on
00:37:02my own.
00:37:02Then say it clearly. What proof do you have?
00:37:06Don't do this here.
00:37:07She said it here.
00:37:11Since this involves me, verify that too.
00:37:14The review panel evaluates the applications.
00:37:17I won't be scoring them for anyone.
00:37:20I can submit my version history and the work allopation.
00:37:26I only said one thing. Why is she reacting like this?
00:37:30Take back what you can't prove.
00:37:43Was that hard on you?
00:37:48I don't want to keep explaining myself in front of everyone.
00:37:51You already made it clear today.
00:37:54When someone says, you did nothing wrong, and doesn't ask me to be the bigger person, it makes me want
00:38:01to cry even more.
00:38:18Keep going. The next stage is harder.
00:38:24I wanted to tell her I'd been up all night worrying.
00:38:28But she walked away so fast.
00:38:30And I missed the moment again.
00:38:45My tone was off yesterday.
00:38:48Chloe didn't think he'd take it that hard.
00:38:50She was just...
00:38:52So you're here to explain for her.
00:38:55I'm trying to put this behind us.
00:38:57I don't owe her that.
00:39:01You used to let me finish.
00:39:05I used to be scared you'd shut me out.
00:39:08I finally admitted it.
00:39:10Back then, even I couldn't tell how much of that obedience was love.
00:39:14And how much was fear of losing you.
00:39:19What about now?
00:39:21Now I want you out of my life.
00:39:22For good.
00:39:39She still won't forgive you?
00:39:47Can we talk for a minute?
00:39:50If it's about work, send me an email.
00:39:53He's not taking my calls.
00:39:54I'll leave if I have to.
00:39:55Just stop fighting with him.
00:39:56Why is your relationship my problem to fix?
00:39:58He's so busy trying to make it up to you, he can't even focus on the project.
00:40:02He can't keep going like this.
00:40:05Last time, she died and somehow that was on me.
00:40:09This time she's alive and it's still on me.
00:40:21Get up.
00:40:22Please.
00:40:23Your family has money and Reed is helping you.
00:40:26Ethan can't lose anything else.
00:40:28If you can't let him go, help him with what's yours.
00:40:33Stop handing out what's mine.
00:40:41What's going on?
00:40:45I was just begging her for you.
00:40:47Get the facts first.
00:40:48Then talk.
00:40:54I didn't make her kneel.
00:40:55I didn't ask you two to break up.
00:40:57I asked you to stop coming to me.
00:41:02I'm done here.
00:41:03I'm coming now.
00:41:07You're that eager to see him?
00:41:10Yes.
00:41:35Don't close the door.
00:41:48Olivia, look at me.
00:41:51The door's open.
00:41:53Let's get under the canopy.
00:41:56I know I'm back.
00:41:58But that lock clicking shut threw me right back into the water.
00:42:14This wasn't because of you.
00:42:18Sometimes I just get like that.
00:42:21Tell me what would help.
00:42:25Don't shut doors suddenly.
00:42:27And don't grab me before I can react.
00:42:30Okay.
00:42:33I was afraid saying any of this out loud would make me seem difficult.
00:42:38But he never asked how long I'd take to heal.
00:42:40Or expected me to be okay before getting close.
00:42:47Why were you so scared yesterday?
00:42:51I'm okay now.
00:42:54You never used to react like that in my car.
00:42:57He was starting to connect both lifetimes.
00:42:59I could see it.
00:43:00He was waiting for me to let something slip.
00:43:03That lighthouse photo.
00:43:05Which page did you put it on?
00:43:07What are you here to hand over?
00:43:09I just want to know it.
00:43:10That's personal.
00:43:11I don't discuss it.
00:43:13No.
00:43:19I don't discuss it.
00:43:29No.
00:43:29No.
00:43:50You didn't say he was coming.
00:43:52It's just dinner.
00:43:53Don't make this awkward for everyone.
00:44:04I thought she finally wanted one dinner alone with me.
00:44:07Your accounts, your job, your assets.
00:44:09You decide all of it.
00:44:10We can put that in writing now.
00:44:12It was already mine.
00:44:16I'm not leaving tonight.
00:44:18I'm staying with you.
00:44:20We don't have anything anymore.
00:44:22You don't need to prove it.
00:44:25Then what do you want?
00:44:31Don't set me up like this again.
00:44:33Dinner's not over.
00:44:36You asked me to come home.
00:44:37I thought you wanted to see me.
00:44:50If I'd saved you first that night, would you still have left?
00:44:59He was still asking what one different choice would have changed.
00:45:06But I'd already lived that answer once.
00:45:08I would.
00:45:20Can you stay on the phone with me?
00:45:24For a little while?
00:45:28You can just leave it and go.
00:45:30Mm.
00:45:30Come in.
00:45:40It's not that I can't let him go.
00:45:43You don't have to explain that first.
00:45:46Being upset doesn't mean you made the wrong choice.
00:45:48I was scared if I cried, people would think I still wanted to go back.
00:45:53But he let me finish eating first, then be sad.
00:45:58Can I hug you?
00:46:17You said you'd still have left, even if I'd saved you first.
00:46:23Why?
00:46:25Because no matter who you saved, I was dead either way.
00:46:32Unless I saved myself.
00:46:35What the hell does that mean?
00:46:44She's not pulling the proposal.
00:46:46You need to wake up.
00:46:50That night on the yacht.
00:46:52Did she say anything else?
00:46:53You were right there.
00:46:57Because you didn't just disappoint me.
00:46:59You let me die once.
00:47:02Did she live through it too?
00:47:20The Bennett team has been selected to move forward into formal partnership negotiations.
00:47:40Last time, I sat there and watched Ethan walk up stage.
00:47:45All those late nights, every revision I made.
00:47:49It was like my hands had never touched any of it.
00:47:54This time, I finally saw my name stay there.
00:48:01Whole.
00:48:03Uncut.
00:48:09Now I can finally say congratulations.
00:48:14I'm free tonight.
00:48:16Want me to pick the place?
00:48:19I'll pick this time.
00:48:24I always thought you wanted me to beg.
00:48:31But even now that you won, you still won't look at me.
00:48:39That car.
00:48:42You remember that car, don't you?
00:48:46You deserve your love.
00:48:47Yeah, I remember.
00:48:52I remember you never took me to sign the divorce papers.
00:48:58I remember you drove to the coast.
00:49:02You did.
00:49:03I remember you shoving me into the car.
00:49:08You locked me in.
00:49:10I kept screaming for help.
00:49:15I kept screaming for help.
00:49:21We both owe her.
00:49:24You don't get to walk away.
00:49:32You remember all of it?
00:49:35I remember the wedding.
00:49:37The first time you shoved me.
00:49:40The way I had to wait for your permission just to buy something.
00:49:44I'd said these words in my head so many times.
00:49:47But standing in front of him, it wasn't satisfying.
00:49:51I was just tired.
00:49:54I still had to tell him what he'd done to me.
00:49:57So that's why you told me to save Chloe first.
00:50:03I didn't want to spend the rest of my life owing you for surviving.
00:50:06It won't happen this time.
00:50:09I saved her.
00:50:10It won't happen again.
00:50:14For you it hasn't happened yet.
00:50:20For me it already has.
00:50:24I thought you were just angry.
00:50:28I told you it was over so many times and you still didn't believe me.
00:50:35Do you believe me now?
00:50:43Mom?
00:50:44Mom?
00:51:04She wasn't waiting for me.
00:51:10What's wrong?
00:51:12Did she say something to you again?
00:51:15Stop.
00:51:22Do you still want to get something to eat?
00:51:26Not tonight.
00:51:28Then I'll take you home.
00:51:36I said everything I needed to say.
00:51:39Now he knows.
00:51:40But I didn't feel lighter.
00:51:42It was like crawling out of that car all over again.
00:52:01No.
00:52:02No.
00:52:08We lost the project.
00:52:10What do we do now?
00:52:12You can't keep obsessing over her.
00:52:15She pulled her funding.
00:52:17Competed against you.
00:52:18And now this.
00:52:18I made the call to keep investing.
00:52:21Stop blaming her.
00:52:23This is on me.
00:52:26All of it.
00:52:27You never used to say that.
00:52:30What's wrong with you?
00:52:32Do you regret it?
00:52:42Want me to give you some space?
00:52:46No.
00:52:47It doesn't need to be opened right now.
00:52:51His messages used to stop everything.
00:52:54For the first time,
00:52:55I realized I could leave an email unopened
00:52:58and the sky wouldn't fall.
00:53:05You said you'd take care of me.
00:53:06Now that she doesn't want you,
00:53:08you're putting all of this on me?
00:53:15Your words are your responsibility.
00:53:18My decisions are mine.
00:53:22For the first time,
00:53:23Chloe looked as helpless as I once did,
00:53:26with no idea what she could say to make him turn back.
00:53:30You're leaving?
00:53:33You don't need me anymore.
00:53:39I can't keep throwing my life away on you.
00:53:59I did all this for...
00:54:02For me?
00:54:03So I owe you?
00:54:07I didn't want to spend the rest of my life
00:54:09owing you for surviving.
00:54:31He finally stopped,
00:54:33putting another woman between us.
00:54:37But this letter came too late.
00:54:41I don't need it to prove I was innocent.
00:54:54Olivia developed the original retail access corridor
00:54:57and coordination plan.
00:54:59She wasn't properly credited in the earlier presentations.
00:55:06I had no basis for those claims.
00:55:11And I didn't stop them when I should have.
00:55:15That part is on me.
00:55:25He did the right thing this time.
00:55:28He did.
00:55:31You don't want to reply?
00:55:35I'll confirm I received the correction.
00:55:40I can admit he did one thing right.
00:55:42That doesn't erase the rest.
00:55:44And it doesn't make me his again.
00:56:09a movement.
00:56:12super cool.
00:56:12I don't know.
00:56:12We can go dans this pizza shop.
00:56:13It isn't the most reasonable time for them.
00:56:18You'll need to sign off on the operating control restructuring too.
00:56:52It's really good.
00:57:01You can't get a lot of bread.
00:57:06I don't think it's all for it.
00:57:22How long have you been waiting?
00:57:25Not long.
00:57:26I haven't finished this water yet.
00:57:33I get swamped, too.
00:57:35But he waits for me.
00:57:37He doesn't see me, and start off by asking what I owe him.
00:57:53I used to worry he'd just throw my things away.
00:58:01Now that he's listed them all out, I just want to take back every tie to him, piece by piece.
00:58:22Last time, I shouldn't have brought Ethan over without telling you.
00:58:30I really wanted to see you that day.
00:59:01I was going to ask you that day.
00:59:15I don't want to be with him anymore.
00:59:18But seeing my old handwriting still hurts.
00:59:21I was all in.
00:59:24I never even let myself imagine he'd let me down.
00:59:40Do you still want to go out tonight?
00:59:44I want to be alone tonight.
00:59:47Okay.
00:59:48Let me know if you need me.
01:00:28Do we need to reschedule?
01:00:37I don't want to go out tonight.
01:00:38I'll put it away.
01:00:41You don't have to push through this for me.
01:00:44If tonight's really bad, we can do this another time.
01:00:48Do you think I've been pushing you away?
01:00:53I don't know.
01:00:55That's why I'm asking.
01:00:59I was bracing for blame.
01:01:01Instead, he left the question there and waited for my answer.
01:01:08I want to see you.
01:01:10And I want to do my job well.
01:01:15Sometimes I don't know how to do both.
01:01:19Then we'll figure it out together.
01:01:21You don't have to wonder if I'll be upset.
01:01:27Don't make plans with me on Wednesdays.
01:01:29Sundays are for you.
01:01:32You can keep part of Sunday for yourself, too.
01:01:42So, getting close to someone doesn't mean empty yourself first.
01:02:04Want me to step out?
01:02:08No.
01:02:11He wants to see me.
01:02:14I don't know if seeing him would just give him hope again.
01:02:18Then make the boundaries clear.
01:02:23I used to think seeing him meant forgiveness.
01:02:27And not seeing him meant cruelty.
01:02:30Now someone's finally reminded me.
01:02:33This choice is mine, too.
01:02:48I don't know.
01:03:18Thanks for coming.
01:03:21Go ahead.
01:03:28I kept telling myself that as long as Chloe was alive,
01:03:32I could outrun everything that happened before.
01:03:38Then I finally got it.
01:03:41What I was really running from was what I'd done.
01:03:47I turned saving you into a debt.
01:03:52And I treated the fact that you survived like it was your fault.
01:03:57No matter what, I made you owe me.
01:04:02I used to fight so hard to make him say these words.
01:04:07Now that he finally has, I realize I don't need to win anymore.
01:04:17I know sorry isn't enough.
01:04:19I just don't know what else I can do.
01:04:21Take responsibility for what you can.
01:04:24Then live your life.
01:04:27Is there really no place for me in it?
01:04:32Even if it's as a stranger?
01:04:36I can't see you as a stranger.
01:04:40A stranger never tried to kill me.
01:04:51Are you still afraid of me?
01:04:54Sometimes.
01:04:57Sometimes I'm just tired.
01:05:03I thought you still loved me.
01:05:06I did.
01:05:09I don't want leaving to mean denying who I was.
01:05:13What I felt was real.
01:05:17So was the pain after.
01:05:21But loving you once doesn't mean I have to stay.
01:05:30Can you stay a little longer?
01:05:34No.
01:05:38Okay.
01:05:44Okay.
01:05:55Okay.
01:06:08It's over.
01:06:19Want to go home?
01:06:21Or walk a bit?
01:06:24Let's sit for a minute.
01:06:26I thought a real goodbye would be loud.
01:06:29But he didn't come after me.
01:06:31And I didn't look back.
01:06:33Just cars passing by, one after another.
01:06:38Thank you for not speaking for me.
01:06:42Those were your words.
01:06:43No one could get through.
01:06:44I thought...
01:06:46I don't know.
01:07:23I finally started putting my energy into things that were mine.
01:07:34Then one day, on my way home, I realized I hadn't thought about Ethan at all.
01:07:57Have you been sleeping okay lately?
01:08:03Most of the time.
01:08:12Next time, you can invite Noah, if you'd like.
01:08:23I'll ask him.
01:08:45You really kept it all this time.
01:08:51I told you, I would.
01:09:01Some promises come without a ring, without witnesses, and still last from childhood to now.
01:09:15I want to talk about our future.
01:09:20Seriously.
01:09:41You don't have to answer.
01:09:43Father.
01:09:44Right now.
01:09:47I just want to know if you'll hear me out.
01:09:58Will you marry me?
01:09:59Yes.
01:10:24Nervous?
01:10:27A little.
01:10:32Take it slow.
01:10:44The first time I wore a wedding dress, all I could think was he finally wanted to marry me.
01:10:55This time, I know why I'm walking forward.
01:11:02Do you?
01:11:05I do.
01:11:30Tomorrow, take me to see your boat.
01:11:34Are you sure?
01:11:35Are you sure?
01:11:36I want to try it.
01:11:47It's okay if you don't want to get on today.
01:12:00I still remember the cold, the fear, me grabbing onto anything just to stay alive.
01:12:22But today, I'm not waiting for anyone to decide if I stay or go.
01:12:31Thanks.
01:12:32I got to resume it.
01:12:35when I locked in aحatinash, I will never go.
01:12:40Bye now.
01:12:41Bye now.
01:13:03I'm good here.
01:13:06I finally made it to a tomorrow where I don't have to apologize for surviving.
01:13:23I'm good here.
