Transcript
00:01Daddy, Mommy smiled at me. I'm scared.
00:06I woke up with my memories stuck at 18, only to find myself 26.
00:11Even crazier, I suddenly had a four-and-a-half-year-old son,
00:14and his father was my childhood nemesis, Lucas Howard, America's youngest billionaire.
00:21Oh, no. I'm late for morning class again.
00:24Last thing I remembered, I was 18, on campus.
00:27Before I could figure out why I was lying there, things got even weirder.
00:31Mom, did you hit your head or something?
00:33Mom?
00:34The kid was adorable and weirdly convincing.
00:37If this was a scam, he was definitely the MVP.
00:43Hey kid, I'm still in college.
00:45There's no way I could have a kid your age.
00:48When in doubt, call the cops, right?
00:50I thought the station would blow the scam open.
00:52Instead, I was the one under investigation.
00:55Then who's your dad?
00:56My dad's Lucas Howard.
00:58That's when I found out Ollie's dad was Lucas Howard,
01:01the man who runs Howard Group, America's youngest billionaire,
01:05and a regular at the NASDAQ opening bell.
01:08Too bad he had the same name as the guy I grew up fighting with.
01:12So every time I heard Lucas, I wanted to gag.
01:16Dad's here!
01:18Let's see who this scam ring's boss really is.
01:21First the legs, then the broad shoulders, narrow waist.
01:25Scam aside, this guy's built.
01:27Then I saw his face.
01:29Oh my god.
01:31He doesn't just share my Arcetade's name.
01:33He is Lucas.
01:37Sorry about this.
01:38They're my wife and son.
01:40Wife?
01:40Son?
01:42Sir, I'm only 18.
01:43Ivy, we've known each other 26 years.
01:45What are you pulling now?
01:472026?
01:49I'd lost eight and hill years.
01:52I still thought I was 18,
01:54but I was married to my worst enemy with a four and a half year old son.
01:58So what the hell happened to the eight years I lost?
02:01Eight years ago, Lucas was just a gamer idiot who lived to get on my nerves.
02:05I was sure he'd grow up to be a loser.
02:08And now, eight years later, that loser is a billionaire.
02:11Turns out I'm the clown.
02:13We're going home.
02:14A billionaire husband, an adorable son,
02:16in ten minutes,
02:18I went from a college kid stressing about morning class
02:21to basically winning at life.
02:23Next time you go cheat on me, could you leave our son out of it?
02:27Wait, I'd cheated on him?
02:29Sweetie, did mommy scare you?
02:31Daddy, mommy smiled at me. I'm scared.
02:34He was really scared of me.
02:36What had I done to him?
02:40Welcome home, Mr. and Mrs. Howard, Ollie.
02:43A house this big and a $40 million Monet on the wall?
02:47The kid who never put down his game console was really a billionaire?
02:51Not bad.
02:52Used to do nothing but play video games and now look at you.
02:55How long are you going to keep this up?
02:57If I told you I lost my memory and only remember everything up to 18,
03:01would you believe me?
03:02You'll make up any excuse to get a divorce.
03:04In less than half a day, I found out I cheated.
03:06And apparently I also tried to force my billionaire husband to divorce me for another man.
03:12We'd spent our whole lives trying to get one over on each other.
03:16How did we end up married?
03:18Is this marriage really that much of a joke to you?
03:21I'm not laughing at that.
03:23My last memory is you swapping my study notes for pig farming for beginner
03:27and me falling into a pit chasing you.
03:30I told him my last memory.
03:32I said I didn't even know who this so-called other man was.
03:36I even promised that if this marriage really couldn't work,
03:39we could divorce peacefully.
03:41I didn't realize those two words, peaceful divorce, hit him right where it hurt most.
03:46You wanted to marry me, so I married you.
03:49Now you want a divorce, and I'm supposed to just let you go?
03:52That was when I finally realized it.
03:54I was the one who started this marriage.
03:56Dad, Mom, please don't divorce, okay?
04:00If you two get divorced, I'm never eating steak again.
04:03You've still got sauce on your face, okay?
04:05I promise, we're not getting divorced right now.
04:09Right now.
04:10Don't make promises you won't keep.
04:12The same promise made Ollie light up and made Lucas doubt me even more.
04:16I'd promised to stay before, then let them down again and again.
04:20That night, I washed off the makeup and picked out clothes I actually liked.
04:25I was still 26, but I finally felt a little more like myself.
04:30Mom, you look so pretty today.
04:32Don't be scared. I just want to straighten your clothes.
04:35All I had to do was raise my hand, and he flinched.
04:39Dad, Mom really is different today. I like her better now.
04:45Henry, look into everyone Ivy's been in contact with lately.
04:48What I didn't know was that even as Ollie started trusting me,
04:50Lucas still believed this amnesia was hiding something else.
04:54Has Lucas been this busy lately?
04:56A week ago, you deleted every work file on Mr. Howard's computer from Mr. Black.
05:01That was over a month of work from Lucas and his whole team.
05:04I wasn't just trying to leave him. I was helping another man destroy his career.
05:09Who is Mr. Black?
05:10You're pinned contact on WhatsApp.
05:12This wasn't some mutual affair.
05:14I was the one chasing Cain.
05:16And the last location I sent him was the same street where I woke up.
05:20What the hell? Cain Black?
05:22He was just some classmate my family used to support.
05:25How did I end up betraying my husband and hurting my son for him?
05:29I threw away a billionaire husband for a guy my family supported?
05:33That's not me.
05:34I need to ask my parents what happened to me over those eight years.
05:37Before I turned 18, my parents ran an international trading company.
05:42We weren't as rich as Lucas is now, but I never wanted for anything.
05:46Eight years later, I thought their business would be bigger than ever.
05:49Instead of some mansion in Manhattan, we pulled up to an old apartment building in Queens.
05:55No staff. No garden. Not even an elevator.
05:59That's when I realized the last eight years hadn't just changed my marriage.
06:06Dad!
06:07Eight years ago, one little scrape and Dad would badger the doctor for half an hour.
06:11Now he looked at me like I was one huge unpaid debt.
06:15Up close, I finally saw it.
06:18Dad's hair was almost white and Mom had gotten so thin.
06:21In eight years, life had taken 20 from them.
06:25Are you sick?
06:26What happened to the company?
06:28And our old house?
06:29The company went bankrupt.
06:31Who did this?
06:32You.
06:33Dad covered the cash. Mom put away the deed.
06:36They thought I'd come for more money for Cain.
06:38We don't have any property left to borrow against.
06:41Our retirement accounts barely cover our living expenses.
06:45If you're here to get money for Cain again, go lie to someone else.
06:49That's when I finally understood.
06:50I emptied my family's savings for Cain and drove us into bankruptcy.
06:54I didn't just hurt Lucas and Ollie.
06:56I dragged my parents down too.
06:58But one person never gave up on me.
07:02Is that really me and Lucas?
07:04Lucas and I used to fight every time we saw each other.
07:07At 18, I couldn't even imagine choosing him.
07:09But Mom said that after college, we got married.
07:14Ollie's only a few months old.
07:16It's for you.
07:18I'll take care of Ollie.
07:19You keep dancing.
07:21Lucas knew my dream was to be a professional ballerina.
07:24After Ollie was born, he even cut back at work.
07:28So I really did love him.
07:29And he really put me in Ollie first.
07:32It's all yours.
07:33You're gonna make it.
07:34But not long after Ollie was born, I gave up ballet,
07:38pushed Lucas away, company shares, and my sports car to start his business.
07:43The old me didn't just wreck my parents' lives.
07:45I took everything Lucas gave me and used it on another man.
07:49Lucas bought this apartment too.
07:51He even wanted to buy back our old house.
07:54I never thought the one cleaning up my mess after I ruined my parents' lives would be the husband I
07:58betrayed.
07:59I really don't remember any of it.
08:01You really only remember what happened before you turned 18?
08:05Of course.
08:06If Kane showed up right now, then kick him out with these ballet legs.
08:11Wait, did I already get into New York City Ballet?
08:14You don't dance anymore.
08:16Ballet has been my dream since I was four.
08:18I might leave the stage because of an injury, but for a man, never.
08:22It wasn't just ballet.
08:23The way you dressed, what you ate.
08:26Betraying your husband?
08:27Maybe you fell for someone else?
08:28Blowing the family fortune?
08:30Maybe you lost your mind?
08:31But how does someone change their habits, tastes, and personality that completely that fast?
08:37None of those choices sounded like me.
08:39I needed to find out what Kane had done to me.
08:42What I didn't know then was that Lucas had started to wonder if my amnesia was real.
08:48The old me would have never been so gentle with Ollie, or gone back to see my parents on my
08:53own.
08:53But just as Lucas was starting to believe me, he found out the old me had already booked a ticket
08:59to Paris on the same flight as Kane.
09:01I almost believed her again.
09:04My parents were just starting to trust me again.
09:06Mom even called Lucas and invited him over for dinner.
09:09She's flying to Paris tonight.
09:11Kane's on the same flight.
09:13Don't trust her anymore.
09:17Tomorrow night's performance in Paris will be my last.
09:20Anna Rossi was the ballerina I idolized growing up.
09:23I always swear that as long as she was still on Rey, I'd see her perform at least once.
09:27I'd already booked a flight for tonight.
09:29If I left now, I could still make her farewell performance.
09:32Where are you going?
09:33Paris! It's important!
09:34She's still lying to us.
09:35My head was full of my idol's farewell performance.
09:38I had no idea that ticket was never really about ballet.
09:42Kane was already heading to the airport.
09:44He still thought I was following him to Paris, just like before.
09:49Before I left for the airport, I came back to the estate for my passport and bag.
09:53I didn't realize that to Ollie, it looked just like every other time I left.
09:58Mommy, are you leaving us again?
10:02I'm just going to Paris to see a show. I'll be back soon.
10:05You said that before.
10:07He couldn't even trust me to come back anymore.
10:09Can I go with you?
10:11Never mind. You don't like Dad.
10:13And I'm his kid, so you don't like me either.
10:18I didn't remember any of it.
10:19But he did.
10:21I wasn't a good mom to you.
10:23That wasn't your fault.
10:25From now on, you can hug me whenever you want.
10:27Okay?
10:28You're coming to Paris with me.
10:31Let's ask Martha to get your passport, okay?
10:33Yay! Then, Mommy, do you think you could like Dad again someday?
10:38How did this kid get so good at catching me off guard?
10:42Just like his dad.
10:48Mrs. Howard took Ollie's passport. They've already left for the airport.
10:52Lucas knew Kane and I were on the same flight.
10:54Then he found out I'd taken Ollie.
10:57Just like that, all his anger turned into fear of losing his son.
11:01She can go wherever she wants, but she's not taking Ollie.
11:04Get flight clearance. I'm going to Paris now.
11:09He was supposed to fly to Paris the next day to close the Grand Paris Hotel acquisition.
11:16Instead, he couldn't wait a few more hours.
11:18He just wanted his son back before I disappeared with Ollie for good.
11:21When we land, find Ollie first.
11:24What about Ivy?
11:24Who she wants to be with is her choice.
11:27I was going to Paris for a show.
11:31He thought I was taking Ollie and leaving him.
11:33Welcome to the Grand Paris Hotel. Here's your key card.
11:43I was waiting for Ollie when Kane found me.
11:46So you really chased me all the way to Paris?
11:49Nice for touching. I didn't recognize you.
11:53You were begging to see me on WhatsApp.
11:55Now you're pretending you don't know me.
11:56You'll do anything for my attention.
11:58He really thought I'd cross the Atlantic just to chase him.
12:01Worst part? The old me probably gave him reason to think that.
12:04I came to Paris for the ballet. I'm not interested in you.
12:09The Carter family tossed me a few scholarships to make yourselves look generous.
12:13And now you want to humiliate me in public?
12:16If you hated Carter money so much, why didn't you refuse it?
12:20You begged me to take that money, Ivy.
12:22You were so crazy in love with me, you lost your mind.
12:24So what right do you have to question me now?
12:29But I'm generous.
12:32Apologize.
12:33Promise you'll behave from now on.
12:35And I might let you stay with me.
12:39When Lucas arrived, he thought I'd already chosen Cain.
12:50You slapped me?
12:52That slap wasn't just for what he said.
12:56I own 2% of this hotel.
12:58Once the acquisition closes today, it'll be worth even more.
13:01By then, even if you beg on your knees, I still might not see you.
13:05Cain got this far on Carter money, and now he's showing off that tiny stake.
13:10Too bad. He has no idea what's coming.
13:13Remember this? You begged me to take it last month.
13:16Don't give me trash like this again. It'll stain my clothes.
13:19What I throw away, someone else treats like treasure.
13:22You've got it backwards. I took out the trash today.
13:25That's how I finally saw who's actually worth Go Quiet.
13:28I didn't know maybe because I'd never chosen him in front of anyone before.
13:31Not like this.
13:32Once the acquisition closes, your 2% will be bought back at the original price.
13:38Says who?
13:38Me. I'm the buyer.
13:40My hotel doesn't welcome anyone who harasses my wife.
13:43Dad, weren't you getting to Paris tomorrow?
13:47Move the trip up.
13:49Mr. Howard, the VIP tickets you asked for to Anna Rossi's farewell performance.
13:53He said he was only here to buy the hotel, but he'd already gotten the three tickets I wanted most.
13:58He could lie with words, not with this.
14:01So you really only remember what happened before you were 18?
14:04It was the first time he didn't just assume I was lying.
14:10To see if I'd really lost my memory, Lucas tested me.
14:14My locker combo, our prom theme, even the date he swapped my notes with intro to pig evening.
14:20I got everyone right.
14:23When we get back, you're going to the hospital.
14:25We need to find out what's really going on.
14:27He didn't say he believed me, but for a man I'd lied to over and over,
14:31just looking for another answer was already a step toward me.
14:35Mom, can I sleep with you tonight?
14:38Of course you can.
14:40Just hearing I'd stay made him light up like I'd given him the best gift in the world.
14:45That's when I realized all he really wanted was a mom who wouldn't leave.
14:51Mom, don't go. I'll be good.
14:55It's okay, baby. Mommy's right here.
14:57How'd you know that would calm him down?
15:00You used to have nightmares, too.
15:02My 18-year-old memories told me how to comfort Lucas,
15:05but not why my own son kept apologizing in his sleep.
15:08Then Lucas told me Ollie had been so starved for security,
15:11he'd even scratched himself just to make me look at him.
15:15Where was I?
15:17Kane caught a cold. You flew out to bring him medicine.
15:20My son was hurting himself just to get my attention,
15:22and I was flying across the country for another man.
15:25That wasn't my choice now, but Ollie's scars were still real.
15:29The bed's big enough. You can sleep here, too.
15:31Just for Ollie. Don't get any ideas.
15:34That night, Ollie slept between us, one hand holding mine, the other holding Lucas's.
15:38Maybe for the first time in his life, he had both his mom and dad beside him.
15:43I thought sharing a bed with Lucas would be awkward, but I barely noticed.
15:47He somehow got even hotter after 18.
15:50Why are you staring at me?
15:52Wow. You grew up hot and nice.
15:55Tell you what, we'll sell the cuff clings later, and I'll split the money with you.
15:59I gave you the money for those cuff clings.
16:01Great. I used my husband's money to buy my crush a gift, and now I'm offering him half the dirty
16:05money.
16:0626-year-old Ivy is somehow worse than 18-year-old Ivy.
16:09Anna's farewell performance went on as planned.
16:12Watching her dance up there, I couldn't help mourning the career I'd already lost.
16:18If I start over now, is it too late?
16:22If you're done dancing, we'll turn the dance studio into a media room when we get back.
16:27We still have a dance studio? Don't you dare. Starting today, my life is about three things.
16:32Eating, sleeping, and getting back on strays.
16:35I thought Lucas was just baiting me.
16:38Then he hung back and called Martha to redo the dance studio.
16:41That's when I knew he'd never given up on my dream.
16:46Before we left Paris, I bought Ollie some clothes that actually fit a four-year-old.
16:50I missed so much of him growing up.
16:52At 18, I did not expect kids' clothes to cost this much.
16:58Why'd you send me so much money?
17:00We sold study guides together in high school. Call it your cut.
17:04I did the math. Unless those study guides belonged in a museum, there was no way they made that kind
17:09of money.
17:10But if a billionaire wants to call it profit, who am I to argue?
17:14Next time, be subtler. For now, we'll take everything he tried on.
17:19Back in New York, I realized it wasn't just Cain.
17:22I let everyone around me use me like an ATM.
17:26Your feet are ruined from dancing.
17:29Don't wear ballet shoes in front of me again.
17:31I realized I gave up ballet after all those years just because Cain hated my feet.
17:37Someone who loves me wouldn't make me hate my own body, let alone push me to give up my dream.
17:43The old me could hand millions of dollars to strangers, but I couldn't even leave my parents a home.
17:48Lucas' money was still there.
17:51I decided to use what was left to make it right with the people who deserved it most.
17:57Mom, Dad, welcome home.
17:59This house is ours now. Why are you back?
18:02I wanted to surprise my parents, but the people who grabbed this place back then were two distant relatives.
18:08They never finished paying for it, and now they plan to keep it.
18:13Good thing I came prepared. They only paid part of the down payment, and they still owe the rest.
18:19Under the contract, we can take the house back and go after them for breach.
18:23If this goes to court, the damages could exceed what the house is worth now.
18:28The second they heard about damages, they started playing the family card.
18:31I told them when they threw my parents out, family didn't matter then. It's too late now.
18:36I can't give them back the eight years I ruined, but I can give them this home back.
18:40Stay for dinner tonight. I'll make your favorite mushroom soup and pack some for Lucas, too.
18:46Lucas.
18:47The way Dad said Lucas' name told me everything.
18:50He was there for me then, and he's still here for us now.
18:54Dad saved you some soup. Don't drink too much tonight.
18:57The street lights are out, so tell Henry to drive slowly.
19:02I didn't know then, but that tiny bit of concern was enough to make him leave dinner early.
19:07I'd spent years not caring when he came home.
19:10I was so lost in dancing. I never noticed him at the door.
19:14That night, Lucas saw the real me again. No heavy makeup, no lies.
19:22Didn't you say you'd be back later?
19:25You don't want me back?
19:26Lucas came back with ballet shoes Anna designed herself, never sold publicly, and a card she wrote just for me.
19:32For Ivy. I hope one day you'll become the next me.
19:35My idol's ballet shoes! Wait, how did you get these? You didn't steal Anna's shoes, did you?
19:40She brought them herself.
19:41For those shoes, Lucas got Anna to turn back after she'd already left Paris.
19:45But he said nothing. He just told me to try them on.
19:49But when I saw the red marks on my feet, I heard Cain's disgusted voice again.
19:54You don't think they're ugly?
19:55These marks are from all the years you fought for this. Why would they be ugly?
19:59One disgusted comment from Cain made me give up my dream.
20:03Lucas held the feet I'd been hiding, and told me every scar deserved respect.
20:09I haven't danced in a while. My feet gave out.
20:12Then don't push it.
20:18Take it slow. Your talent's not going anywhere.
20:21That was when I realized rivals didn't explain what I felt around Lucas anymore.
20:25But admitting I liked him felt even crazier than admitting I'd time-traveled.
20:28Dad, I need to go to the bathroom.
20:31I buried my burning face and told myself it wasn't a crush.
20:34He was just too close, that's all.
20:37The next day, there was a stranger in the house.
20:40Cecilia Shaw, Ollie's child psychologist for the past two years.
20:43And watching her with Lucas and Ollie, I felt like the outsider.
20:47Hi, I'm Ollie's mom.
20:49I know, we've met before.
20:51Come on, let's go wash your hands.
20:53Ollie's trauma is severe.
20:54If you can't give him stable love, stay away from him.
20:57Don't hurt him again.
20:59She sounded gentle, but every word hit my guilt.
21:02I had no right to expect Ollie to accept me overnight.
21:05But no one gets to use his pain to push me away.
21:09But the woman and childhood in this picture look happy.
21:11You don't actually think that's you, do you?
21:13That's me.
21:14In Ollie's heart, I've been the one in your place.
21:17A chill ran down my spine.
21:19I had no right to be jealous.
21:21But seeing another woman in my place made the threat real for the first time.
21:26If you really care about Ollie, stay away from him.
21:29I'll answer for what I did.
21:30But I'm not handing my son over to a child psychologist who's trying to come between us.
21:36These pictures will remind me what I owe him.
21:39And you don't get to use your profession to interfere with my family again.
21:43Mr. Howard, I'm just worried about Ollie.
21:46I never expected Mrs. Howard to treat me like this.
21:50I didn't realize this is how you act when I'm not around.
21:53I thought he was blaming me.
21:55Cecilia had been there for Ollie for so long.
21:57And all I'd given them was disappointment.
21:59I never saw this coming.
22:01I heard every word you just said.
22:03Whatever Ivy did before, she's still Ollie's mother.
22:06And my wife.
22:07You don't get to tell her to leave her own child.
22:10I thought Lucas would judge me like everyone else.
22:13But he didn't ask me to prove anything.
22:15He just stood by me.
22:17I was only speaking professionally.
22:18Turning a child against his mother is not treatment.
22:21Leave.
22:23You actually believe me?
22:25At our wedding, I promised I'd stand by you, no matter what.
22:28I didn't forget.
22:30You did.
22:31That's when I realized this wasn't new.
22:33No matter how badly I'd hurt him, he still hadn't let go of that promise.
22:38I wanted to understand why Ollie drew another woman as his mom, so I could fix what I'd done.
22:44But what he told me was not the answer I expected.
22:48Even if you drew Celia as your mom, I wouldn't be upset.
22:51I know I wasn't there for you before.
22:54But I drew you.
22:55I always dream about a mom who smiles and hugs me.
22:58You weren't like that before.
23:00But I always felt my real mom should be like the one in my picture.
23:04And now she's finally back.
23:06He never stopped loving me for what I'd done.
23:09Even when I let him down most, he was still waiting for his real mom to come back.
23:14But be careful of Celia.
23:16I think she wants to be Dad's wife.
23:18You picked up on that too?
23:20End all of Celia's treatment with Ollie.
23:22Starting today, she doesn't go near my family.
23:25For the first time, right in front of me, Lucas included me in our family again.
23:31Dad used to rush in when I was in the bathroom.
23:34I didn't want him bothering you too.
23:37Ollie told me he used to get stomach aches a lot.
23:39So Lucas stayed outside because he was worried.
23:41Turns out this man isn't just rich and handsome.
23:44He's actually a pretty decent dad.
23:46Even if we lost everything, your dad still wouldn't leave us.
23:50At worst, he'd go do manual labor.
23:52Could Dad do that?
23:55He doesn't look like he's ever done manual labor, so yeah, your dad probably couldn't.
24:02Dad, eat more. You need your strength.
24:05Why?
24:06Mom said you can't. I think that's why she doesn't like you.
24:10I only meant he wasn't built for manual labor.
24:13Ollie somehow turned that into a direct hit to a grown man's most fragile pride.
24:18Why'd everyone leave?
24:20Did you sleep well last night?
24:22Of course. I even dreamed about the first time we slept together.
24:25I had no idea that to a grown man that sentence meant something else entirely.
24:29I didn't realize it then, but when I said the first time we slept together,
24:34Lucas thought I meant our wedding night.
24:37Then you already know if I'm any good.
24:40Oh, I know.
24:42You were too scared of a caterpillar to sleep in your own tent,
24:45so you climbed in next to me.
24:48I'm sleeping here tonight.
24:50Why?
24:52Seriously? Over this?
24:53He was thinking about our wedding night.
24:55I was dreaming about some bug-scared 18-year-old version of him.
24:59No wonder he looked like I'd just betrayed him.
25:01We're going to the hospital.
25:04Because I said you were scared of a caterpillar?
25:06Because no normal person confuses a camping trip from eight years ago with our first night together.
25:12Jokes aside, I wanted answers too.
25:15Why were those eight years missing?
25:17And why had I suddenly become someone else?
25:21There's no sign of head trauma or any structural damage to her brain.
25:24Then why could she only remember things from before she was 18?
25:28This isn't ordinary amnesia.
25:30That was when Lucas first realized my sudden change, and my return to myself might have been someone's doing.
25:39To figure out what happened to those missing eight years, Lucas brought in New York's top neurology specialist.
25:45Then he walked in, and I realized it was Ryan, our most useless old classmate.
25:51Didn't you used to flunk exams?
25:53Exactly.
25:54That's how I ended up with patients like you.
25:56If he weren't my doctor, I would have punched him already.
25:59This doesn't look like traumatic amnesia.
26:01It looks more like part of her consciousness was tampered with over a long period, then suddenly cut off after
26:08the fall.
26:08It was just a theory with no proof, but the timing matched my personality change exactly.
26:14If someone really controlled me for those eight years, they didn't just steal my memories.
26:18They used my body to hurt everyone who loved me.
26:25Or maybe she just has a hysteretic personality.
26:28She's using her 18-year-old memories to get sympathy so you'll forgive everything she's done.
26:32Cecilia worked at this hospital's Children's Mental Health Center.
26:35Passing by the exam room, she happened to hear Ryan's assessment.
26:39My wife's condition is for the neurologist to assess. Stay out of it.
26:43What if she's lying to you?
26:44Then let her lie to me for the rest of my life.
26:48Lucas's words threw Cecilia off, and shook me too.
26:52Did he really mean it?
26:54Would he really let me deceive him for life?
26:57The exam's over. Let's go pick up Ollie.
27:00You remember what you promised him, right?
27:02Of course.
27:03What I didn't know was that Cecilia had already gone to Ollie's preschool.
27:08She knew exactly where to strike.
27:10If she wanted me to lose this family again, Lucas wasn't the easiest one to shake.
27:16Ollie was.
27:17I promised Ollie I'd pick him up myself.
27:19But my exam ran late, and by the time I got there, Cecilia was already with him.
27:25Stop waiting.
27:26Your mom's made that promise before.
27:28When has she ever actually showed up?
27:30Even Benson was making fun of him, saying maybe he didn't even have a mom.
27:34But Ollie stayed there, eyes red, telling everyone I'd promised.
27:38I wasn't going to let him down again.
27:41Who says I wouldn't?
27:42The second he ran into my arms, I got it.
27:46For most kids, showing up is nothing.
27:48For Ollie, it meant his mom loved him.
27:52He said I don't have a mom.
27:54Then he doesn't get dessert today.
27:56She said you weren't coming too.
27:59You're not Ollie's doctor anymore, and you're still telling a four-year-old his mother doesn't love him?
28:04I just didn't want him to be let down again.
28:06From now on, you don't go near Ollie without my permission or Lucas's.
28:11I can't undo the fear I caused Ollie, but I can make sure the person who kept feeding it is
28:16out of his life for good.
28:20Mom said we're going to grandma and grandpa's.
28:22If dad doesn't come, will he starve all by himself?
28:26He just forgets to eat sometimes. He's not going to starve.
28:28I'm coming.
28:30So for the first time, I went back to the Carter family's old house with my husband and my son.
28:38That's when I realized every time I came home, I upset dad so badly his heart acted up.
28:44Ollie got scared a few times, so now he grabs the heart medication the second he walks in.
28:50He was only four and a half, and he'd already learned to protect this family from me.
28:55Ivy hasn't been picking on you again lately, has she?
28:57You're asking the wrong question. Ask if she's bullied him again over Cain.
29:02Can I at least eat dinner tonight?
29:04My parents could finally joke about the past, and Ollie wasn't constantly reading the room anymore.
29:09For the first time, the home I'd wrecked felt alive again.
29:15Lucas, when you were ten, you were this much shorter than me.
29:18Am I taller than you now?
29:20The height marks on the wall stopped at ten.
29:22The man in front of me had grown tall enough to pin me in completely.
29:26One more inch, and we'd be kissing.
29:28And I didn't want to move.
29:29Just when I finally worked up the nerve to lean in...
29:36Ivy, I'm downstairs. Come out and see me.
29:38I know you still can't let me go.
29:40Quit playing hard to get. I'm out of patience.
29:43Lucas, where are you going?
29:44Cain's call killed the kiss.
29:46Lucas didn't answer me.
29:48He stormed downstairs like he was ready to kill somebody.
29:51That's when I found out I'd once threatened Lucas with my life to protect Cain.
30:07If you touch him, I'll run into traffic and get myself killed!
30:12That threat still had Lucas trapped.
30:14Even now, he wouldn't risk my life again.
30:17My dad had another heart attack.
30:19My mom told me to end this marriage.
30:21Everyone thought if Cain snapped his fingers, I'd go right back to him.
30:25If you still can't let Cain go, stop putting Lucas through this.
30:29I didn't come down here to go with Cain.
30:32I came to make sure he never comes back.
30:35Life's been rough without me, huh?
30:38Apologize, and I might give you another chance.
30:41I was about to give you one too.
30:44What?
30:44A chance to disappear.
30:46Right now.
30:47In that moment, every dollar he stole, every dream he ruined, and every person he hurt over those eight years
30:52went into that broom.
30:53Ivy, are you insane?
30:55No. I'm finally awake.
30:57Grandpa, do you still need your heart medication?
30:59Not right now.
31:01Where are you?
31:02My parents finally believed I'd really let Cain go, but the one person who needed to hear it had already
31:07left, believing the worst.
31:14Lucas wouldn't answer his phone, so I brought him dinner my dad made.
31:19Weren't you going to see Cain?
31:21I was. To send him packing. Not very gently.
31:25Eat first.
31:26My handsome, rich, ridiculously nice husband matters a lot more than that narcissist.
31:31I'm not great at talking people down, but Lucas wasn't as hard to win over as I thought.
31:38Wait. Isn't this the trophy I threw out back in school?
31:44When I was 18, I won the ballet competition.
31:49I was too afraid to ask him, so I acted like that win meant nothing to me.
32:01How is this here?
32:03I picked it up.
32:04And you've kept it all these years?
32:06It matches the office.
32:13How is this here?
32:13He said it like it was nothing, but the trophy was spotless.
32:19The next day, I tracked down our old classmate Ryan to find out what Lucas said to Sophie.
32:31Ryan told me Sophie repeated the rumor to Lucas on purpose, trying to make him believe I'd bought my title.
32:38But Lucas didn't comfort her. He called her out.
32:42You don't have any proof, so why do you still believe Ivy?
32:45Because I know her. She'd rather lose than win like that.
32:48No matter what, I'll always believe her.
32:51So it wasn't just the trophy he gave back.
32:53He gave me back the dignity those rumors crushed.
32:56And suddenly, I needed to see Lucas and ask why he trusted me that completely.
33:01Because you trusted me like that first.
33:06Lucas told me that when he was a kid, his stepmother hid some money and framed him for stealing it.
33:11When everyone pressured him to confess, I used my own allowance and pretended the missing money had been found.
33:19I thought I'd fooled everyone, but he knew right away. I was the only one who folded bills like that.
33:26You knew there'd never be proof, so you covered it yourself, instead of letting them blame me.
33:32Because even if you did something bad, you'd do it out in the open.
33:36Not behind someone's back.
33:40Since that day, no matter what anyone says, I'll believe you first.
33:43I finally got it.
33:45He didn't keep choosing to trust me just because we were married.
33:49I stood by him when everyone doubted him, and after that, he never stopped standing by me.
33:56Memory, relief, whatever it was, it was all there between us.
34:00We were finally about to kiss.
34:03Mom! Dad! I got presents for all of us!
34:06Perfect. The mood was right, the distance was right, my heart was pounding,
34:10and then our four and a half year old showed up right on cue.
34:15I'd promised Ollie we'd take him to the amusement park with Lucas this weekend.
34:18To make it feel like a real family date, he secretly got us three matching cartoon t-shirts.
34:24Can we all wear matching shirts today?
34:27That's childish.
34:29He said it was childish, but he changed faster than Ollie and me.
34:33Then Henry brought over his schedule, and Lucas cancelled everything at a glance.
34:39Today's for Ollie.
34:41Just me?
34:41For both of you.
34:43When Lucas was little, he threw up all the way home after a roller coaster.
34:48Eight years later, he's taller and richer, still not any braver.
34:54I just ate too much for breakfast.
34:56I don't know about their father-son bond, but they definitely inherited the roller coaster sickness.
35:02You three look so happy. Mind if I put this photo up at the booth?
35:07In that picture, we didn't look like a broken couple or strangers starting over.
35:12Just two ordinary people on a date with their kid.
35:16You like it?
35:18Of course. I look gorgeous in it.
35:21As for the man in the picture, I wasn't telling him yet that he looked pretty good smiling at me
35:26too.
35:27That's Ollie. He and that woman bullied me at preschool last time.
35:31She's so young. No way she's his mom. She's probably his dad's mistress.
35:43I was helping Ollie pick out water guns for the big water fight when Benson's mom deliberately soaked him.
35:53I didn't even think.
35:56I just moved to protect Ollie.
35:58Didn't you say you had a mom?
36:01You say you a mom.
36:03Rich guys swapping girlfriends is normal.
36:09My son had only just started believing he had a real family.
36:16Here are the water guns you picked out.
36:21No. We want those too.
36:27They picked on Ollie.
36:34Now apologize to Ollie.
36:38Who the hell do you think you are?
36:43That woman is not his mother!
36:49She is my mom's.
36:52You have three seconds to apologize.
36:55Is list.
36:56Do you even know who my husband is?
37:00Three.
37:03Just wait till my husband gets here.
37:06You're dead.
37:07Two.
37:09One.
37:16When Lucas got there, Benson's mom didn't back off.
37:19She called me his mistress in front of everyone and said we were faking it as a family.
37:24Then people started whispering that I look too young to be Ollie's real mom.
37:29Babe, she says I'm your mistress.
37:31I guess I look too young to have a four and a half year old son.
37:34Then make sure she remembers it.
37:36You're my wife and Mrs. Howard of Howard Group.
37:38The second she heard Howard Group, everything changed.
37:41Her husband's company was just one of Lucas's smallest suppliers.
37:44The woman who'd been lecturing me suddenly called it a misunderstanding between kids.
37:48Mr. Howard, I really didn't know she was your wife.
37:51So if she wasn't, that would make it okay to humiliate her and a child?
37:55Better yet, her husband's company had several irregular entries.
37:58So Howard Group suspended the partnership and sent the records to an independent auditor.
38:03She tried to use his status to crush me and got her own family business audited instead.
38:07Ollie, please ask your mom and dad to forgive me.
38:10I heard your apology, but you still owe us for the water.
38:13This time, Ollie didn't run and hide.
38:16He knew his mom and dad were behind him, and he finally stood up for himself.
38:21Lucas told me to change out of my wet clothes and went to get me a hot drink.
38:26After I changed, I sat alone on a bench outside the locker room and waited for him.
38:33You've been making a scene this whole time just to get my attention.
38:36Then Cain showed up again, spouting narcissistic nonsense.
38:40And just my luck, Lucas came back with my drink and saw him standing right in front of me.
38:45Divorce Lucas. I'll marry you.
38:49Divorce Lucas. I'll marry you.
38:52Divorce Lucas came back right as Cain said it.
38:54He didn't confront him.
38:56He just set down the hot drink he'd bought me and walked away.
39:00Cain hadn't suddenly fallen for me.
39:02He thought I was just playing hard to get, and he'd come to use me to steal Howard Group's bid
39:06proposal.
39:08Get me the bid proposal, and I'll let you marry into the black family.
39:12So you want me to betray my husband, steal trade secrets, and thank you for marrying me?
39:19The old you would have done anything for me.
39:21Then live in the past. Right now, I just want you the hell away from me.
39:25I turned him down. I made it clear I'd never hurt Lucas for anyone again.
39:29But after Cain left, I saw a drink still steaming by the bench.
39:33It was Lucas's thermut. He'd been there. He heard Cain propose, but not me turning him down.
39:40I called Lucas the whole way back, but he never answered.
39:43I found him in the study, drinking alone, rubbing his wedding ring over and over.
39:50The floor's cold.
39:52He thought I was leaving again, and he was still worried I'd get cold.
39:55That's when I got it. He wasn't refusing to trust the woman I'd become.
39:59He just couldn't believe I'd really stay.
40:02You've been wearing our wedding ring this whole time?
40:05Yeah.
40:06What about mine?
40:08You threw it away four years ago.
40:10One sentence brought back a past I'd forgotten, and never had the courage to face.
40:14Lucas told me that four years ago, I threw divorce papers in his face, and took off my wedding ring.
40:22Let's get divorced.
40:24No.
40:25Lucas took my hand and reminded me of the vows we made with those rings.
40:29He thought what we'd been through might make me think twice.
40:33If this ring is supposed to mean something, I don't want it.
40:37I sat in Cain's car and watched Lucas dive for that ring again and again.
40:41I didn't even open the door.
40:43I wasn't just throwing away a ring.
40:45I was throwing away his family.
40:48I finally admitted it to Lucas.
40:51I've been running from those eight years.
40:53I may not remember them, but I can't pretend the damage wasn't mine.
40:59If I ever turn back into that person and hurt you and Ollie again, you have to send me away.
41:04So you're still planning to leave?
41:06I'm just scared.
41:07You wanted to marry me, so I married you.
41:09You wanted to leave, so I waited.
41:11Now you're back, and you're already deciding how the next time ends.
41:15Ivy, you don't get to decide.
41:18For everyone else, whether they love you or give up on you.
41:21I thought asking him to send me away would protect this family.
41:24But to someone I'd already abandoned so many times, it only meant I was ready to leave again.
41:31Sorry. I'll go to Ollie's room.
41:34Don't go.
41:35I didn't want to explain anymore, and I couldn't leave Lucas waiting alone.
41:39In that moment, I finally admitted it.
41:42Eighteen-year-old Ivy Carter had fallen for the Lucas in front of me.
41:45I wanted his kiss, his arms around me, and I wanted to stay in the home I had to leave.
41:50I had once thrown away with my own hands.
41:55I found out later Lucas wasn't drunk that night.
41:58He remembered every kiss, and he remembered pulling this ring out of that freezing fountain.
42:04I hope this time you really choose me.
42:07When I woke up, Lucas had put the ring he found in the fountain back on my finger.
42:13Four years ago, he couldn't stop Ivy Carter from throwing it away.
42:17Last night, eighteen-year-old me asked him to stay.
42:22So the one who begged me to stay last night is sneaking off now?
42:26I'm just hungry.
42:27And calling my name all night?
42:29That was hunger too?
42:31Turns out marrying my old rival didn't make him any less insufferable.
42:35Worse, by the next morning, the whole estate knew Mr. Howard had finally stopped sleeping alone.
42:40Mom, were you sick yesterday?
42:43No. Your dad was.
42:46Yeah. I need to get my strength back.
42:49I was starting to think asking him to stay last night was the most impulsive thing eighteen-year-old Mai
42:55had done since landing eight years in the future.
42:59Mr. Howard, your father needs you at the Howard family mansion right away.
43:05There's a problem with the bid proposal.
43:08Lucas and his father had always been at odds.
43:11He wanted me to stay home, but his stepmother specifically asked me to come along, like the whole thing was
43:16aimed at me.
43:18Lucas's stepmother was suddenly so nice, she even made the tea herself.
43:22And that bitter, herbal smell, I just caught it on Cain.
43:28It's tea from my hometown. Barely anyone in New York drinks it.
43:33Her hometown was the same place Cain used to live.
43:36Lucas's stepmother and the man who ruined my life, somehow, they were connected.
43:40And nobody knew.
43:44I never touched the tea.
43:47Then my stepmother brought up how I used to beg her to talk Lucas into a divorce.
43:52And kept hinting Cain was the better choice.
43:55Ivy, I really am thinking of what's best for you.
43:59Lucas may come from money, but he's every bit as calculating as his father.
44:03I already wasted my life on a Howard man.
44:06I won't watch you do the same.
44:08You're young and beautiful.
44:11Why stay with a husband that cold?
44:13She acted like she cared, but every word was tearing Lucas down.
44:18And pushing me to leave him for Cain.
44:21Cain's young, ambitious, and he knows how to love a woman better than Lucas does.
44:27Weren't you obsessed with him before?
44:29You seem to know Cain better than I do.
44:33I just don't want to see you make the same mistake I did.
44:37Don't worry, I'm not like you.
44:39I would never betray my husband for an outsider.
44:43Ivy, even if you hate me, you can't push me!
44:47No cameras, no witnesses.
44:49She was counting on my old reputation.
44:52A few tears, and everyone would assume I did it.
44:55Ivy, how much more are you going to tear this family apart?
44:58What she didn't know was that Ollie likes using his toy to record sounds whenever he comes to the family
45:04mansion.
45:05It caught everything that just happened.
45:10Lucas may come from money, but he's every bit as calculating as his father.
45:15Cain knows how to love a woman better than Lucas does.
45:19The toy caught more than her fake fall.
45:21It recorded every insult towards Lucas, every word meant to push us into divorce.
45:26That's when they finally saw it.
45:28She never meant well.
45:32So who owes Ivy an apology now?
45:36Maybe the pushing can be explained.
45:38What about leaking Howard Group's reserve bid?
45:40She met Cain at the amusement park yesterday, and today it was leaked.
45:44How long are you going to keep trusting her?
45:45One accusation had barely been cleared when another hit me.
45:49And this time, it wasn't just words.
45:52It was a trade secret that could cost Howard Group hundreds of millions of dollars.
45:56I didn't even know what the bid was for.
45:59How could I have leaked the reserve bid?
46:01You could have waited till Lucas was asleep and taken it from his computer.
46:05She never left my sight last night.
46:07One sentence cleared my name and told the whole Howard family I saw the same unsaved number over and over
46:12on her phone, and I wanted to test a theory.
46:15Exactly what we did last night.
46:18Then take Ivy in for questioning.
46:22You're under suspicion for leaking trade secrets.
46:25Come with us.
46:26Lucas had planted a different hidden marker in every bid file.
46:29Cain got the one from Mr. Howard's set, and only his stepmother had free access to the study.
46:34The same hometown tea, the way she defended Cain for no reason, and that bid file ending up in his
46:41hands, all said one thing.
46:44They definitely weren't just acquainted.
46:46Then I saw the same unsaved number over and over on her phone, and I wanted to test a theory.
46:52Mom, did it work?
46:53One word blew open the secret they'd hidden for years.
46:57Lucas's stepmother was Cain's biological mother, and he'd been using her from the start to steal everything from Lucas.
47:05Mr. Howard, Cain already bought a piece of undevelopable land using the false reserve bid.
47:11If he wants to steal, let it cost him.
47:13At last, his father saw it. The son he'd doubted for years was the one protecting the Howard family all
47:20along.
47:21You owe Lucas an apology.
47:24I'm sorry.
47:25So this is what it feels like? To have someone stand up for me?
47:29When he was at his most helpless, he remembered the one time I trusted him.
47:34And after all these years, I was finally back by his side.
47:39Later, I found out Ollie was worried. One of my ballet partners would steal me.
47:44So he told Lucas to win me over with his body.
47:48Lucas called it childish, then took off his shirt and started doing pull-ups that night.
47:57I just came in for a bottle of water and found a billionaire pretending not to show off abs he'd
48:02clearly been working on for this exact moment.
48:05Keep going. I'm not done looking.
48:08If you want a trainer, I'm available.
48:10I thought you'd hire me some young hot trainer instead.
48:14Howard Group doesn't have the budget for that.
48:16That bottle had just touched my lips.
48:19Watching him drink from it like it was nothing.
48:21My attention drifted from his abs to the slow bob of his throat.
48:26How'd you get this scar?
48:29Before Ollie was born, I almost fell down the stairs.
48:33Lucas shielded me and a broken banister went through his shoulder.
48:36I lost that memory. The scar didn't.
48:39We had so many good moments, and I can't remember a single one.
48:45Don't cry. It doesn't matter if you don't remember.
48:48We'll make new memories.
48:50One a day. 365 a year.
48:53Someday the new memories will outnumber the ones you lost.
48:56I used to be desperate to know what happened in those eight years.
49:00But in that moment, I understood.
49:03What mattered more than getting the past back was the long future we still had ahead of us.
49:11Oli was gone at summer camp for a week.
49:14When he came back, he stopped reaching for me.
49:18The nightmare started again, like the safety we'd built was being chipped away.
49:24Who did this to you?
49:26I was bad.
49:27No four-year-old says that on his own.
49:30When I checked the camp roster, I found Cecilia, the woman Lucas drove off, back under a new identity as
49:35the camp counselor.
49:38I told you to stay away from my son.
49:43I'm just worried about Oli.
49:45Mrs. Howard, why do you keep stopping him from getting treatment?
49:48She called abuse treatment and a mother's rage a breakdown.
49:51The crowd didn't know any of that.
50:00Who said you could lay a hand on my wife?
50:02Mr. Howard, maybe you should hear what Oli said himself first.
50:07When mommy drinks, she hits me and cuts my hand with a knife.
50:13That was Oli's voice.
50:15Cecilia didn't just hurt him.
50:18She made him blame me for all of it.
50:20He's always been afraid of his mother.
50:22I only helped him tell the truth.
50:27An unverified recording proves nothing.
50:29How long are you going to keep protecting her?
50:31I won't let anyone condemn my wife.
50:33Lucas had been fooled before.
50:35But this time, he didn't ask me to prove I was innocent.
50:39He shielded me first.
50:43A child's voice can be manipulated with drugs and hypnosis.
50:46If you want the truth, ask the person who did it.
50:49What are you talking about?
50:50Ryan had suspected Cecilia for a long time.
50:54She'd been using therapy to control Oli.
50:57So he turned her own method against her and stopped her from lying.
51:01Who hurt Oli's hand?
51:02I did.
51:04And that recording?
51:06I made him say that too.
51:08But Ryan's next question wasn't about Oli.
51:11A few years ago, Ivy changed completely.
51:13Was that your doing too?
51:15Of course.
51:17What did you do to Ivy?
51:21Cain told me to get close to her.
51:23I used drugs to lower her guard.
51:25Then long-term hypnosis to make her believe only Cain was worth loving.
51:29They didn't change me overnight.
51:31They kept twisting my judgment, making me depend on Cain, and turning me against my husband, son, parents, and ballet.
51:37Until I ruined my own life.
51:40Then why did she suddenly snap out of it?
51:43After she fell that day, the conditioning she'd been under for years was broken.
51:48That's why she went back to who she was at 18.
51:51I finally understood that cold, unhinged version of Ivy Carter didn't come out of nowhere.
51:57But being controlled explains what happened to me.
52:01It doesn't erase what Lucas, Oli, and my parents went through.
52:07What about Oli?
52:09Cain told me to destroy his sense of safety, then make everyone believe Ivy was the kind of mother who
52:14would hurt her own child.
52:17Why?
52:18Because Cain wanted your whole family to suffer forever.
52:21He wanted the Howard family.
52:23And he wanted to prove your so-called love could be broken.
52:27The full recording, the drug records, and Oli's injuries were enough to put Cecilia on trial.
52:33Cain was identified as the mastermind in the police investigation.
52:40Oli, none of that was your fault.
52:44Do you still want me, Mommy?
52:47No matter what they made you say, you're my son.
52:50Cain stole eight years from me, then came for my son.
52:53The law will make him pay.
52:55But before the police find him, there's one thing I need to settle with him myself.
52:59Cain tried to run.
53:02Lucas' men stopped him before he could leave New York.
53:06After what he did to my family, to my mind, and to Oli,
53:10I wasn't about to settle for reading his regret in an interrogation transcript.
53:14Ivy, everything you have is just because you were born rich.
53:18So my family paying for your education was somehow our crime?
53:23You people just love playing savior.
53:25Even now, he blamed all his cruelty on being poor.
53:29Like suffering once gave him the right to dump twice as much pain on innocent people.
53:34Being poor doesn't make you evil.
53:36Money doesn't make you noble, either.
53:39Here's the difference.
53:40We try to build a better life for ourselves, and our families.
53:45You just want to drag everyone down with you.
53:48Without Lucas, you're nothing.
53:50Wrong.
53:51Even without my family, my marriage, or money, I'm still Ivy Carter.
53:56Take away everything you stole?
53:58What are you then?
54:02I thought getting revenge myself would feel good.
54:04But face to face with him, all I wanted was to go home.
54:08Oli was waiting for me to turn out his light, and Lucas had promised to practice with me.
54:14Not the face. The police still need to identify him.
54:18She said, not the face. Everything else is fair game.
54:22That was the last time Cain was ever part of my life.
54:26The next time I heard his name, he and Cecilia were both waiting for the law to catch up with
54:32them.
54:35After Cain was dealt with, I found my way back to the stage.
54:40At 18, I thought losing eight years meant losing my dream.
54:44But my body remembered, and the people who loved me helped me start again.
54:49This year's International Ballet Competition gold medal goes to Ivy Carter.
54:54This time, no one said I bought the trophy.
54:57My parents were there.
54:59Oli was cheering louder than anyone.
55:02And Lucas looked at me the same way he had when he kept that old trophy.
55:11Mom, do I just have no talent for dancing?
55:14You're pretty talented at attacking your partner.
55:18My turn.
55:24When did you learn that?
55:25My wife's a ballerina.
55:27I can't let her dance with someone else every time.
55:30After Oli was born, he stayed home with him so I could keep dancing.
55:34And now he learned every step, just so he could stand beside me.
55:42In that kiss, a memory that had been buried under hypnosis for years came rushing back.
55:49Lucas, I remember now.
55:52At our college graduation party, Lucas got surrounded by girls and, just like when we were kids, secretly texted me
56:00for help.
56:01Sorry, he has a girlfriend.
56:04They're gone. You can let go now.
56:06What'd you put for the last multiple choice math question?
56:09D.
56:09What if it's wrong?
56:11If it's wrong, I'll marry you. Happy?
56:13That question only had A, B, and C.
56:15That's when I got it.
56:16The rescue text, the terrace, the math question.
56:20Lucas set the whole thing up because he was too scared to ask me himself.
56:23You said it. No take backs.
56:26Whoever backs out is a puppy.
56:29Deal.
56:30So our marriage wasn't some family arrangement or a reckless impulse.
56:34It was two idiots who'd spent years fighting their feelings and turned a joke into forever.
56:40So technically, I proposed to you first?
56:42That's right.
56:43But this time, it's my turn.
56:50Eighteen-year-old Ivy chose me.
56:52Twenty-six-year-old Ivy forgot us.
56:54Now you know what life with me looks like.
56:56Ivy Carter.
56:58Would you choose me again?
57:01When I woke up, I thought I'd been dropped into another woman's marriage, child, and mess.
57:06Now I know better.
57:07It wasn't a stranger's life.
57:09It was eight years stolen from me.
57:12I can't undo all that hurt.
57:15But I can hold my son again, protect my parents, and tell the man who waited all these years that
57:20his wait wasn't for nothing.
57:22If the woman I was chose to marry you, then she already knew.
57:26And so do I.
57:28I'm making the same choice.
57:30Lucas, I do.
57:35No taking it back this time.
57:37Whoever backs out is a puppy.
57:43Mom, do you still hate Dad?
57:45Of course I do.
57:47He hogged most of the bed last night.
57:48Not exactly.
57:50You rolled right into my arms last night.
57:55A year ago, I was eighteen, thrown eight years into the future.
58:05I still bicker with Lucas.
58:08Ollie still catches me off guard.
58:16But I finally got back my dream, my family, and love.
58:23Mom, look at the camera!
58:27If this is the price of those lost eight years, I'll stay right here forever.
58:32Mom.
58:32Mom.
58:33Mom.
