Short filmTranscript
00:00So, tell me, why do you want to be a maid in my house?
00:07Why?
00:08Because of you, madam.
00:0920 years ago, I had a happy family, until my mother discovered my father having an affair
00:14with my private tutor.
00:15I hate you!
00:16You betrayed our family!
00:17I can't sleep!
00:18I can't sleep with you!
00:19Oh, Diana.
00:20I'm so sorry.
00:21I guess you'll have to call me mommy now.
00:28I will never call you mommy.
00:38You will if I say so.
00:39No, I won't.
00:40And you can't make me.
00:45We'll see about that.
00:47My little brother got sick and died on my tutor's watch.
00:51Just a little baby, don't you cry.
00:54Mama's gonna sing you a lullaby.
01:00Is this all it takes for you to fall apart?
01:03So pathetic.
01:05Why didn't you take him to the hospital when he was sick?
01:08I begged you!
01:09I'm telling my father everything.
01:12Your father?
01:13Your father is drowning in a sea of death.
01:16Ten million deep.
01:18Thanks to me, his only escape?
01:20That's your perfect solution.
01:23The real question is, does he love you enough to take that plunge?
01:36You're a monster!
01:37I won't let you get away with this!
01:43Do you remember this?
01:46Brings back some memories, doesn't it?
01:49How about I become your new tutor?
01:54We are going to have so much fun together.
02:09Daddy?
02:12Don't worry, Diana.
02:14Your daddy still loves you.
02:18At eight years old, my innocence died with him.
02:22Years passed, dreams distilled down to a purity of purpose.
02:27Revenge.
02:29You said your name was Raven, right?
02:33Eat sweets?
02:34I lost my taste for sweets a long time ago.
02:39Why do you want to be a maid in my house?
02:43I've always admired the warmth of families like yours.
02:48So, I'll join your family.
02:51And then, it's time for an eye for an eye to make her face the consequences.
03:07After ruining my family, Sophie married into wealth.
03:12I have a lecture early in the morning.
03:15I have a lecture early in the morning.
03:19Honey?
03:20Rumor has it they're still in love after 15 years.
03:24But it's all just a facade.
03:29Looking for a little excitement in your marriage, madam?
03:33Greg Harrington.
03:36A respected professor from a prestigious family.
03:39A perfect gentleman to the outside world.
03:47What are you doing here?
03:50Oh, I'm sorry.
03:53Madam asked me to clean the bathroom.
03:56You can go now.
04:00Madam asked me to clean the bathroom.
04:02You can go now.
04:20Wait!
04:23Aren't you forgetting something?
04:30Thank you.
04:34I'll leave now.
04:47I got you something.
04:52Oh my gosh, it's beautiful.
04:55You put it on me?
04:57Of course.
04:59Of course.
05:03I love it.
05:09That pleasant jingle is no sweet love song.
05:24It's the first crack in your marriage.
05:29But this is only the beginning.
05:53I'm going to bring you to the heights of ecstasy
05:56before bringing you down to hell.
06:03So, we're in the Palais and we have to go to the Grand Lumiere
06:06because I have to meet Jean-Paul.
06:08But there was no way we were going to make it there.
06:10That being said, had I met him beforehand
06:13we never would have been able to make a deal.
06:16Sophie, your necklace is stunning.
06:19Thank you. It was passed down to me by my mother.
06:23So anyway...
06:25This woman is a thief.
06:31What are you doing? That's my wife's.
06:34I won't tell if you won't tell.
06:38Besides, it's home wear for you.
06:47She stole my mother's diamond necklace and then my father.
06:53I hope the soup isn't too hot for you this time, ma'am.
06:58Did you steal my diamond necklace?
07:02I didn't steal your necklace.
07:06You're lying. You were the one who was cleaning my room.
07:09Who else could it be?
07:13I didn't steal your necklace.
07:16You're lying. You were the one who was cleaning my room.
07:19Who else could it be?
07:22Ma'am, it's not here.
07:28Then it must be on her. Search her.
07:31Stop!
07:38I'll do it myself.
07:52What is the meaning of this?
07:56Are you okay?
08:01This is ridiculous.
08:04Ma'am, I found your necklace. It was in your coat pocket.
08:09That's impossible. I know I put it in my jewelry box.
08:12Enough. Apologize to her.
08:15Apologize? To her? She's a maid.
08:18Why are you siding with her?
08:21Are you having an affair?
08:25How dare you insult me in front of our staff?
08:28Get a hold of yourself, Sophie. Don't ever question my loyalty again.
08:33Excuse me.
08:37Excuse me.
08:57I'm so sorry about today.
09:00I need to apologize to my wife.
09:03I had no idea she was like this with the maids.
09:06I'm used to it.
09:09Do you need a hand?
09:36The truth doesn't matter.
09:39I believe in one kind of justice.
09:42An eye for an eye, evil for evil.
09:55Some people in this world only desire what's not theirs.
09:58Why are you wearing my mother's dress?
10:01I just love it.
10:04Well, I just love everything of your mother's.
10:07Her clothes, her jewelry.
10:13And even her husband.
10:17How about the missing necklace?
10:20I may have overreacted a bit.
10:24It's alright, ma'am. I understand.
10:27It's just...
10:30I'm sure they have their own types of finery and taste
10:33and they start getting envious notions.
10:36Surely they don't think that proximity grants ownership.
10:39Foolish aspirations, don't you think?
10:42A delusion that demands punishment, in my eyes.
10:45Well, I'm glad you see it that way.
10:49Too bad you don't really get it.
10:55So let me teach you.
11:00You should hurry, ma'am,
11:03or the other guests will arrive before you.
11:06A lady of status knows how to make an entrance.
11:09Making them pine a touch heightens the allure.
11:15Letting you depart unscarred
11:18would be a mercy undeserved.
11:21No, no, no, no.
11:24No, no, no, no.
11:28No, no, no, no.
11:31Your punishment will reveal itself
11:34in time.
11:48Do you like it on me?
11:51You look nice. Just remember it's not yours.
11:54Do you want me to take it off?
11:57Relax.
12:00I'm just enjoying your wife's exquisite taste.
12:04Could you zip me up?
12:21Turn this car around now!
12:27What festers in you now
12:30as that which you hold most dear
12:33slips away?
12:44They say the most thrilling moment in a marriage
12:47isn't the wedding night,
12:50but the night you first get caught.
12:53It was you who sent me that photo.
12:56Yes.
13:02Happy anniversary, my love.
13:05We've been planning this for you. Do you like it, ma'am?
13:17It's yours and madam's anniversary.
13:20Oh, yeah. I forgot.
13:24Don't worry. I've got it taken care of.
13:27I've heard the worst.
13:30I thought Greg had forgotten our anniversary.
13:33Please, you and Greg are practically famous for being so in love.
13:36Not as much as you and Rob.
13:39I'm so sorry, sir.
13:42Please, forgive my clumsiness.
13:47It's fine.
13:50I was getting bored of these shoes anyways.
13:53Do they take me for a fool
13:56blinded by this pageantry?
13:59Partaking in some night air
14:02and covert meetings?
14:05I just needed some air, madam.
14:08By herself or with someone else?
14:11For your mounting insolence.
14:14I'm sorry. I shouldn't have been smoking.
14:17I hate surprises.
14:20The loss of control reduced to a spectacle?
14:23Never again, do you understand?
14:27Maybe I was wrong.
14:34What are you doing up here?
14:37I thought you might be cold.
14:40I'm not cold.
14:43I'm not cold.
14:46I'm not cold.
14:49I'm not cold.
14:52I'm not cold.
14:55I thought you might be cold.
14:58You can't. I'm not here.
15:01Everyone's getting drunk. It's fine.
15:04Guess what color underwear I'm wearing.
15:07I thought you didn't wear underwear.
15:18What happened?
15:21Guess what color underwear I'm wearing.
15:24I thought you didn't wear underwear.
15:27How could you do this to me?
15:30Now that's a real surprise.
15:33Like it, madam?
15:41What happened?
15:44Guess what color underwear I'm wearing.
15:47I didn't think you wore underwear.
15:50What a slut.
15:5420 years ago, this woman ruined my life.
15:5820 years biding my time until I could infiltrate a staff.
16:04Didn't take long to hatch a plan.
16:08Starting with a surprise party.
16:11Surprise!
16:14Step 1 for creating a scandal.
16:17You have to put all the players in the same room.
16:20Step 2. Use yourself as bait.
16:23I'm so sorry, sir.
16:26Please forgive me.
16:29Step 3.
16:32Set up an irresistible little trap.
16:35Partaking in some night air and covert meetings.
16:43Slow down.
16:46You shouldn't be so reckless.
16:49Sorry, sir. I was brushing to fill everyone's drinks.
16:52How about I take it for you?
16:55Thank you.
16:58At last, creating the perfect space for their affair.
17:10They say there's no good drama without an audience, right?
17:14Time to show everyone Sophie's dirty little secrets.
17:18How could you do this to me?
17:22I'm so sorry, Sam.
17:25I want a divorce.
17:28Don't you disgust me.
17:31What is it? Where's Rob?
17:34Let public viewing be but the first wound.
17:37Their true punishment will come when I strip away all that they hold most dear.
17:52The whole town is gossiping about your affair.
17:55Didn't you also have an affair?
17:58I did not.
18:01Oh. Not yet, anyway.
18:06You all can leave.
18:09Oh, now. Now you know how to avoid suspicion.
18:12You have ruined our family's reputation.
18:17Reputation?
18:20Please, why are you acting so noble?
18:23Your family hasn't had a reputation in a long time.
18:26Isn't that why you married me?
18:29Wasn't it you who took advantage of me?
18:39If we married, you were nothing.
18:42Just a gauche upstart desperately clinging to your wealth
18:45as a substitute for any pedigree or grace.
18:48Our alliance has granted you any status.
18:53We've managed to strike a balance up until now,
18:56but this, you have crossed my bottom line.
19:12Will that lower your bottom line?
19:16It's not nearly enough.
19:19And I want the penthouse in Central Park, too.
19:22Only the 270-degree view of the city every night
19:25will be enough to calm the anger in my heart.
19:43What are we celebrating?
19:45Us.
20:03Did you catch all that?
20:06Marriages aren't sustained by fidelity.
20:09They aren't about love.
20:12They're about benefits.
20:18I know it was you, by the way.
20:21Everything, wasn't it?
20:24Are you trying to get rid of me?
20:27Well, all of your cards have been played,
20:30so what's the harm in keeping you?
20:33Besides all the ambitious delights?
20:36I like your strawberry cake best.
20:40So sweet.
20:46You're wrong, Madeline.
20:49I haven't played my last card yet.
20:52Hi, excuse me.
20:55You to buy flowers
20:58for the lovely lady of your life?
21:01There's no lovely lady, but sure.
21:04This guy's faking it.
21:07He'll accuse you of using a fake bill
21:10and try to blackmail you.
21:13What?
21:16It's a common ruse of speaking.
21:19Bitch.
21:22Oh.
21:25Fuck off.
21:28Here, take this.
21:31To deal with guys like that,
21:34you have to be more worthless than them.
21:37Can I take you to a hospital?
21:42Welcome home, sir.
21:45Bonjour.
21:49It's good to see you.
21:52Ethan, I'm so happy you're home.
21:55Did you not eat on this tour?
21:58You lost so much weight.
22:01Let's get you some food.
22:04Not only is he a talented pianist,
22:07but he gets more jimmy every time I see him.
22:10Indeed.
22:13But we serve this world, not share it.
22:16And his mother controls his life.
22:19Right, Raven?
22:22Not necessarily.
22:25I am so happy you're home.
22:28I miss you.
22:31I am so happy you're home.
22:34Is there anything special you'd like to eat?
22:37Mom.
22:40What is that?
22:43I told you I always wanted to raise a pet.
22:46Ethan, you know you can't have a pet.
22:49What if it were to bite your hand?
22:52You know how important your hands are as a pianist.
22:55Okay, we'll find her a new home.
22:58Oh boy, what does this mean to his mom?
23:01Now let's get you something to eat.
23:04Oh, Nana.
23:12Well, well, well, madam.
23:15It appears your baby boy isn't quite the fluffy, docile type you think he is.
23:20This game just got interesting.
23:28Stop!
23:41What am I dreaming of here?
23:51Your hand.
23:54It's injured. Why are you playing the piano?
23:58I've been playing since no one else was around.
24:01You do know no one is supposed to touch this thing.
24:04I know. But the more untouchable something is, the more I like it.
24:07Isn't it the same for you?
24:10I'm not sure I understand what you mean.
24:13Has the master snake had enough to eat today?
24:16Teach me to play the piano and I'll prepare food for...
24:19Nana, is it?
24:22It'll be our little secret.
24:25I won't tell them, madam.
24:28Are you threatening me?
24:31I just want to spend a little time around you, I guess. A little rebellion.
24:34You don't have to pretend to be a good boy around me.
24:37Are you trying to seduce me?
24:40I don't know. Did you take the bait?
24:55Fresh coffee, sir.
24:58Thank you.
25:01Stop!
25:04Such a pretty shade of lipstick.
25:07Another ambitious maid, so pretty, trying to seduce my son.
25:10It'd be a shame if something happened to that pretty face.
25:13Mama, let go.
25:16It's okay, darling. Why don't you just go upstairs?
25:19Stop!
25:22My son spoke up for you today.
25:25Does that make you happy?
25:28Utterly take her away.
25:31No, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
25:34This is what happens when you mess with my son.
25:37Next time I won't be so lenient with you.
25:40I'm sorry.
25:43I'm sorry.
25:47This is what happens when you mess with my son.
25:50Next time I won't be so lenient. Are we clear?
25:53Listen to me.
26:04You're too naive. I'm just trying to protect you.
26:07Is that so?
26:10Yes. And if another maid tries to mess with you again, you tell me.
26:13And let me handle it.
26:17If you want to get close to someone,
26:20tell them to stay away.
26:29Ethan.
26:32I came.
26:35And just like that, the prey takes the bait.
26:42Thank you.
26:47You know, I heard that you are the most famous pianist
26:50for your age in the country.
26:53And the youngest Chopin prize winner.
26:56You seem to know a lot about me.
26:59I envy you.
27:02I always wanted to learn how to play the piano.
27:05But unfortunately, I never had the opportunity.
27:08What was that?
27:11Someone destroyed my family
27:14and made me an orphan.
27:22I'm just kidding.
27:25My family couldn't afford lessons.
27:28But now I have you to teach me.
27:31What do you want to learn?
27:34Childhood memory.
27:39What's wrong?
27:42Oh, nothing.
27:45It reminds me of someone from my past.
28:12You're Sophie's son, right?
28:15Come play with me.
28:22Let's play childhood memory. I'll teach you.
28:35You don't have a piano at home, do you?
28:42Here. Come play with me more often.
28:50Ethan.
28:53Let go of the past.
28:56Focus on who's in front of you right now.
28:59Okay.
29:02I'll teach you.
29:05We'll start with a simple exercise.
29:08Head on the seat.
29:12I should have realized sooner
29:15that her only weakness is you.
29:23My son doesn't need your pity.
29:26Keep your cheap toys and leave.
29:37Do you like this piano, honey?
29:41Then it's all yours.
29:44Mommy will do anything for you.
29:50So to defeat her,
29:53I have no choice but to destroy you.
29:58Ethan, you came.
30:03Nothing gets past you in this house, does it?
30:06Did you really think that you
30:09could seduce my son?
30:13Why are you laughing?
30:16Seeing you lose your cool like this,
30:19I think I must have hit a nerve.
30:22First my husband, now my son.
30:25Are you after me?
30:28Who are you really?
30:32Think long and hard about your past.
30:35Who have you wronged?
30:38I have a lot of enemies.
30:41You are not worth my time.
30:57Is there sugar?
30:59I need sugar.
31:08What are you looking for, honey?
31:11Just Raven.
31:14One of the maids.
31:17She's gone.
31:20I heard about your piano lessons.
31:23Mom, no. It's not what you think.
31:26Relax. I know it was a kind gesture.
31:29I sent her abroad to study music.
31:32My friends at the conservatories will take great care of her.
31:36That's really generous of you. Thank you.
31:39You can thank me by spending the day with me.
31:42It's my birthday.
31:45Of course. Mom, happy birthday.
31:48Here, I'll go get freshened up, okay?
31:53Mrs. Farrington, you have a phone call.
31:56It's very urgent.
31:59Teach her a lesson.
32:02She knows she can't cross us again.
32:05What?
32:21What do you want?
32:24Just teaching you a lesson.
32:27I heard you like to seduce men.
32:30What are you doing?
32:39Follow my classroom!
33:00Now look around.
33:03Isn't this a new day?
33:06Wake up.
33:09Doing things your way.
33:25Stay awake.
33:29Wake up, please.
33:40Where is Ethan? Why isn't he back yet?
33:43Don't worry. He'll be home soon.
33:46He's been staying up all night.
33:59Oh, Sophie.
34:02How does it feel to be betrayed by the one you love most?
34:08What do you want?
34:11I heard you like to seduce men.
34:14How much is she paying you?
34:17I'll double it.
34:20Fine. I'll triple it.
34:29I'll triple it.
34:32You won't still let you go?
34:35No. Continue as planned.
34:38Only until my hero comes.
34:41Your hero? Your hero comes?
34:44Absolutely.
34:48Happy birthday to you.
34:51Happy birthday to you.
34:54Happy birthday, mom.
34:57Happy birthday to you.
35:00Happy birthday to the best mom in the entire world.
35:03I can't wait to spend every year with you.
35:10Looks like someone broke their promise.
35:14Are you prepared to lose the one you cherish most?
35:19Happy birthday, madam.
35:27Morning.
35:30All this is for you.
35:36Ethan.
