00:00:00I
00:00:30As of next week, I'll be able to say I made out with the CEO of Knight Enterprises.
00:00:35It'd be a lot cooler if you could say that you gave him a head.
00:00:47Oh, you are such a good secretary.
00:00:52Truly.
00:00:56Above and beyond.
00:00:58Do you want me to fuck you?
00:01:00Yeah.
00:01:04But there's something I have to tell you first.
00:01:09I'm a virgin.
00:01:17Okay, Mr. Knight.
00:01:19I want to hear you scream my name.
00:01:27You're kidding.
00:01:32You don't know my name, do you?
00:01:36Oh my God.
00:01:37Come on, baby. I'm drunk.
00:01:38Oh my God, I'm such an idiot.
00:01:41I guess it's true what they always say.
00:01:43You really are the biggest dick in America.
00:01:45Oh.
00:01:47I thought they were saying that I had the biggest dick.
00:01:50Good luck with your promotion, Mr. Knight.
00:01:52I quit.
00:01:57Huh.
00:02:09Checkmate.
00:02:11I'll give it to you, kiddo.
00:02:12You're still the whiz kid.
00:02:15I think that'd make it easier to find a job.
00:02:17You'll find one.
00:02:18I don't know.
00:02:20Honestly, this last game was all luck.
00:02:22Just the right place at the right time.
00:02:24Sometimes, that's all it takes.
00:02:28How do his labs look?
00:02:31Well, the chemo is insufficient.
00:02:33The tumor is still growing.
00:02:35You know, as you know, we can't surgically remove it until we first control the spread.
00:02:40So, what do we do?
00:02:42Well, there is a new experimental treatment we could try, but it's unlikely insurance would cover it.
00:02:48Then we'll have to pass.
00:02:49No. It's fine.
00:02:51Angela, we're in enough medical debt as it is.
00:02:53I'll find the money.
00:02:57I'll find a way.
00:03:01Bruce, ex-Secretary Diane Witherford says it was a pattern of disrespect and inappropriate behaviors.
00:03:07This is twice in one month.
00:03:09The prodigal son of Knight Enterprises has found himself the subject of debaucherous controversy.
00:03:15Her name is Diane?
00:03:17I've literally never heard anybody call her that.
00:03:20You've managed to lose the company millions of dollars overnight.
00:03:23It'll bounce back.
00:03:25Knight Enterprises is not some trampoline I built for you to play with.
00:03:29I was ready to name you as my successor, but this?
00:03:33This is proof that you're just not ready.
00:03:36You jump from startup to startup, woman to woman.
00:03:38You have no commitment, no focus.
00:03:40Hey, I'm focused.
00:03:42Okay? I focus during the day.
00:03:44So what if I blow off a little steam at night?
00:03:49I know you never recovered from your mother's death.
00:03:51Oh, God, Dad.
00:03:52But it's time for you to grow up.
00:03:54It's time for you to decide what kind of man you want to be.
00:03:58You mean what kind of man you want me to be?
00:04:01If you want the CEO title, I need to see that you're settled down.
00:04:05Stable.
00:04:06I'll do better, Dad.
00:04:09Okay? You can trust me.
00:04:17She would be so disappointed.
00:04:25I'm sorry.
00:04:36Excuse me. I'm so sorry.
00:04:38Watch where you're going.
00:04:40You bumped into me.
00:04:41Then why did you apologize?
00:04:43I was being nice.
00:04:45Nice?
00:04:47And how far has that gotten you?
00:04:48I don't know. How far has being an asshole gotten you?
00:04:52One day, you're going to realize who you're talking to right now.
00:04:55And I'll have completely forgotten about you.
00:04:58Not if I forget you first.
00:05:13I'm an asshole.
00:05:22I'm sorry.
00:05:28Excuse me?
00:05:31Can I help you?
00:05:34You look like you could use a flower.
00:05:37That's awfully nice.
00:05:39Remembering someone?
00:05:41Someone very important to me.
00:05:43Thank you.
00:05:49They're one for Amelia, too.
00:05:52They're a little crushed, but lilies are resilient.
00:05:56That's why they're my favorite flower.
00:05:58They were Amelia's favorite, too.
00:06:05Can I ask your name?
00:06:07Angela. Angela Carter.
00:06:10Well, it was nice to meet you.
00:06:13Nice to meet you.
00:06:31Lydia, get me as much information as you can on Angela Carter.
00:06:39Okay.
00:06:50I'm headed out.
00:06:52Okay, I'll be here, getting rejected from every engineering firm in this city.
00:06:57I told you, if you want some quick money, it's either feet pics or blood.
00:07:01Are those my only options?
00:07:03Unfortunately, there's a lot of desperate perverts and rich billionaires that want to live forever.
00:07:10Maybe do something nice for yourself.
00:07:13Anything nice costs money.
00:07:19You're going to leave without your wallet?
00:07:30Did you forget your keys, too?
00:07:34Thanks.
00:07:40Can I help you?
00:07:41I'm sorry to intrude.
00:07:44Do you remember me?
00:07:45Of course.
00:07:51So, who are you?
00:07:54My name is Brad Knight.
00:07:56That's funny, you have the same name as that billionaire.
00:07:59I guess my reputation precedes me.
00:08:03Oh, oh!
00:08:05Um, well, how can I help you, Brad Knight, the billionaire?
00:08:10Our encounter yesterday gave me an idea.
00:08:14I think you could be an invaluable asset to the future of Knight Enterprises.
00:08:19Oh my God!
00:08:21Oh my God, this is amazing timing, you know, I've been needing a job.
00:08:25Well, it's less of a job and more of an...
00:08:30an arrangement.
00:08:33Oh, you want my blood?
00:08:36No, no, nothing like that.
00:08:40I know about your situation.
00:08:43What situation?
00:08:45Your father's medical bills.
00:08:48I'll pay for everything.
00:08:50And you'll be taken care of, too.
00:08:53You just have to do one thing for me.
00:08:58I need you to marry my son.
00:09:04Uh...
00:09:06Is this some sort of joke?
00:09:09I wish it was.
00:09:12Xavier is in desperate need of a good influence.
00:09:16And I think it has to come in the form of a wife.
00:09:19A partner.
00:09:21You want me to marry Xavier Knight?
00:09:26The man who was just caught sleeping with his secretary?
00:09:29The man who was arrested in Istanbul for public indecency?
00:09:32The man who snuck a stripper onto Air Force One and tried to...
00:09:34I'm fully aware of my son's rap sheet, thank you.
00:09:40Xavier's been through a lot.
00:09:42Being a Knight comes with a tremendous amount of pressure.
00:09:47In my younger years I was just as lost as he is now.
00:09:52Until I met his mother.
00:09:54God rest her soul.
00:09:56But why me?
00:09:57Because I've made a pretty nice life for myself.
00:10:00Following my gut.
00:10:03And silly as it may sound, my gut is telling me it's you.
00:10:09When you handed me that flower yesterday, you answered a prayer of mine.
00:10:15So, I'm here to answer yours, Angela.
00:10:21I'll save your father.
00:10:23I'll save your father.
00:10:25If you save my son.
00:10:36Give me a call when you're ready.
00:10:47A kind young woman offered this to me after you left me in the park the other day.
00:10:51It's your mother's favorite.
00:10:53I was like you once, Xavier.
00:10:56Angry at the world.
00:10:59Emptying myself into one hollow pleasure after another until there was nothing left inside of me.
00:11:06Lashing out at everyone that tried to help.
00:11:09It's a great speech, Dad.
00:11:12It sounds even better today than it did yesterday.
00:11:14You know, I thought threatening to take away the CEO position from you would make you understand how serious I am.
00:11:21I do understand.
00:11:23And I actually have a great idea to help make back all the money that I lost.
00:11:29There's a new AI tool developed in Paris, and we could be the first media company to have it.
00:11:35You're missing the point.
00:11:37Children have ideas.
00:11:39Adults turn ideas into something real.
00:11:41And your mother turned me into something real.
00:11:44She taught me the power of commitment.
00:11:47And I found someone who can do that for you.
00:11:50So you want me to date a random girl off the street because she gave you a flower?
00:11:57No, Xavier.
00:11:59Her name is Angela.
00:12:01And I want you to marry her.
00:12:03You're joking.
00:12:05Unfortunately not.
00:12:07You've run me out of options.
00:12:10You've run me out of options.
00:12:12It's Angela, or I'm cutting you off.
00:12:16Angela, or you'll never be CEO.
00:12:20Angela, or I give up on you, son.
00:12:25So crazy.
00:12:27When they told me whose makeup I was doing, I was like, it can't be that Angela Carter.
00:12:31How long have you been doing it?
00:12:33Not that long.
00:12:35It's been impossible to find a job since college.
00:12:37I mean, you must be judging me so hard.
00:12:40What? Why?
00:12:42We were in the same program, and now I'm doing your makeup because you're becoming a billionaire.
00:12:46I mean, these people.
00:12:48We were in the same program, and now I'm doing your makeup because you're becoming a billionaire.
00:12:53I mean, the Mario Roland is taking your engagement photos for Vogue.
00:12:58Well, I think that everyone feels like more of an imposter than they're willing to admit.
00:13:04Angela, you look beautiful.
00:13:11Can you give us a moment, please?
00:13:13Yeah.
00:13:19It's you.
00:13:23What a displeasure to see you again.
00:13:26Displeasure's all mine.
00:13:29Need I remind you, the last thing this family needs is another leak of information.
00:13:35In public, you have to get along.
00:13:37Wait.
00:13:42Congratulations.
00:13:43Congratulations.
00:13:46You're officially a gold digger.
00:13:54Great.
00:13:59Get a little closer, maybe.
00:14:01Please?
00:14:06Yeah.
00:14:10Try putting your hand on his chest, maybe.
00:14:13Yeah.
00:14:22Higher.
00:14:24Higher.
00:14:26Perfect.
00:14:30That's perfect.
00:14:33Okay, and now the kiss.
00:14:39Come on now, don't be shy.
00:14:42I missed that one.
00:14:47Missed that one, too.
00:14:50What if we try one that's a little bit longer?
00:15:11Okay.
00:15:29You're not a bad kisser.
00:15:38I don't know who you are.
00:15:40I don't know what you want.
00:15:43But I am going to ruin your life.
00:15:55Alright, Mr. Knight.
00:15:58Or should I call you Mr. Lovebird?
00:16:01Look, you're smitten.
00:16:04Tell me, how do you feel?
00:16:06How do you feel?
00:16:08I feel super.
00:16:10No further questions.
00:16:16Okay.
00:16:20How about you, Miss Famous Fiance?
00:16:24What's the secret? How did you tame the untameable Xavier Knight?
00:16:30Unconditional love.
00:16:31Unconditional love.
00:16:35I'm going to take a break.
00:16:45Love works in mysterious ways.
00:16:50Xavier?
00:17:02Xavier?
00:17:06Hello, dear.
00:17:11I met Skye.
00:17:13You guys went to college together, small world.
00:17:16Okay, can you stop having sex for like one second?
00:17:19Skye, what the fuck?
00:17:21What? I mean, he said you guys did this all the time.
00:17:23I thought you knew.
00:17:25It's true, isn't it, dear?
00:17:27It's part of our arrangement.
00:17:29Right, yeah, of course.
00:17:31It's no problem.
00:17:33So are you going to hop in with us or should I finish up solo?
00:17:36Look, it was good to see you, Skye.
00:17:39It's always fun catching up with old friends.
00:17:41Oh, Angela?
00:17:44Would you close the door on your way out, my love?
00:17:51I can't believe you're really going through with this.
00:17:53I don't really have another choice, Dustin.
00:17:55You can't do this.
00:17:57He's a raging asshole.
00:17:59And a womanizer.
00:18:01Oh my God.
00:18:04Tell me this isn't about Matt.
00:18:07Which Matt?
00:18:09I don't know.
00:18:11Only the Matt you once called the love of your life.
00:18:13This has nothing to do with him.
00:18:15Look, I know he hurt you, but just because you-
00:18:17It's not about him.
00:18:19This is about my dad and saving his life.
00:18:21You have a life worth protecting, too, you know?
00:18:24I don't want you to give up on love forever just to pay for a surgery.
00:18:29Don't worry, Dustin.
00:18:31I gave up on love a long time ago.
00:19:02It took my family a hundred years to build their fortune, and it took you, what?
00:19:06Two days?
00:19:08To latch on.
00:19:10Start sucking.
00:19:12You're acting like this was my big idea.
00:19:15We're both just following orders from your daddy.
00:19:18Yeah, well, I'm a knight.
00:19:20So I'm entitled to the fortune by birth.
00:19:23You are...
00:19:26I'm sorry.
00:19:27You're entitled to the fortune by birth.
00:19:29You are...
00:19:32Nobody.
00:19:35Nothing.
00:19:38Where's my room?
00:19:40I hope you know we're not sleeping in the same bed as each other.
00:19:44I'm afraid you won't be able to keep your hands off me.
00:19:48Down the hall.
00:19:49Down the hall.
00:19:56Tell me one thing.
00:19:59Just one honest answer.
00:20:03Are you just here for the money?
00:20:06Or do you really think you can fix me?
00:20:13Honestly, Xavier?
00:20:15Nobody could fix you.
00:20:34Hey.
00:20:37Oh.
00:20:38Okay, you like it.
00:20:39Okay, you like it.
00:20:43You seem better.
00:20:45I feel better.
00:20:47I always forget how much running helps me.
00:20:50You want to get lunch?
00:20:52Uh, I should probably go check on my dad.
00:20:56But I'll see you at home?
00:20:57Yeah, okay.
00:20:58Okay.
00:21:10So how are you feeling?
00:21:12Better than I have in a while.
00:21:14Thank God the insurance came through.
00:21:16Don't know how we would have ever paid for this treatment.
00:21:19You'll be ready for surgery in no time.
00:21:26Hello, dear.
00:21:31Angela?
00:21:32Who is this?
00:21:34My name is Xavier Knight.
00:21:36My name is Xavier Knight.
00:21:39I'm your daughter's fiance.
00:21:41Angela, is this true?
00:21:43Of course it is.
00:21:44But my forgetful little dove accidentally left her a ring at home.
00:21:50Angela, why didn't you tell me?
00:21:52I didn't want to overwhelm you with the treatment.
00:21:55But something inside me, sir, knew that it was wrong to pluck such a delicate flower without asking for her father's permission.
00:22:03Well, looks like you found yourself quite a gentleman.
00:22:07Where did you two meet?
00:22:09At the cemetery.
00:22:11When?
00:22:13Just recently.
00:22:16And you're engaged already?
00:22:21When you know, you know.
00:22:24And how did you know, Xavier?
00:22:26It's not every day that you find someone that you can really trust.
00:22:30And there's no secrets between us, right, hon?
00:22:34All right, well, I'll see you at home, babe.
00:22:38Home?
00:22:40You two live together?
00:22:42It was so nice meeting you, Mr. Carter.
00:22:50What is wrong with you?
00:22:52What? I just wanted to see where my wife spends her time all day.
00:22:55Interesting you didn't tell your dear father about our little arrangement.
00:22:59You're an asshole. This is what the money's for, if you must know. To save his life.
00:23:03Oh, and were you also trying to save the life of that man you saw in the park today?
00:23:07You were following me?
00:23:09Seems I was right to.
00:23:11Sweet little Angela Carter has a fiancé and a boyfriend.
00:23:17Oh, that's rich coming from a man who can't keep it in his pants for five minutes.
00:23:22You aren't a nobody anymore, Angela.
00:23:24You're a knight.
00:23:26Appearances matter.
00:23:29Since when do you care about appearances?
00:23:31Since my future as CEO depends on it.
00:23:33You can't be seen in public hugging and kissing other men anymore.
00:23:37Now apologize to me.
00:23:43Tell me you will never do it again.
00:23:47I will never do it again.
00:23:53Wait.
00:23:57Are you jealous?
00:23:59No.
00:24:01Oh my God, this is not about you as CEO.
00:24:03Shut up. I'm not jealous.
00:24:05Well, don't worry. Dustin's just a friend.
00:24:10I'm not going anywhere.
00:24:18Oh, look, it's my bride-to-be.
00:24:20What's going on?
00:24:22I hope the music didn't bother you.
00:24:24No, it's fine.
00:24:26It's fine.
00:24:28It's fine.
00:24:30It's fine.
00:24:32It's fine.
00:24:34It's fine.
00:24:36It's fine.
00:24:38It's fine.
00:24:40It's fine.
00:24:42It's fine.
00:24:44It's fine.
00:24:45What's going on?
00:24:47I hope the music didn't wake you up.
00:24:49Xavier said you're out of town.
00:24:51It's fine, Sky.
00:24:53Do you mind if I talk to my fiancé alone for a moment?
00:25:05So what's your play here?
00:25:07Going to torture me into submission?
00:25:09Is it working?
00:25:11You're drunk.
00:25:13You're right.
00:25:15You're always right, aren't you?
00:25:17How'd I get so lucky to be matched with the smartest woman in America?
00:25:20Can you turn the music down?
00:25:24What is wrong with you?
00:25:26It's hard, you know? It's so hard being this rich and handsome and famous.
00:25:33I mean, the pressure and the scrutiny and my father.
00:25:39Brad is a kind and generous man.
00:25:41Oh, yeah?
00:25:42Even though he blackmailed you into marrying me.
00:25:46There are worse things than being married to you.
00:25:59I wouldn't be so sure about that.
00:26:05Why is that?
00:26:07Because I'm bad news.
00:26:09Always have been.
00:26:11Then maybe it's time to try something new, okay? I could help you.
00:26:15Stop being so nice to me.
00:26:19This is nice?
00:26:21You talk to me like you know me or like you're trying to get to know me.
00:26:25Why do you want my defenses down, huh?
00:26:27What's your angle?
00:26:29I just think we see people differently, Xavier.
00:26:31Try living your whole life where everyone always wants something from you.
00:26:35Then we'll see how open-hearted you still are.
00:26:39My heart's collecting dust just the same as yours.
00:26:47It's funny.
00:26:50Even though I know that you're using me,
00:26:57I don't think you're lying to me.
00:27:01I'm not.
00:27:03I'm not.
00:27:08Maybe you're right to take the cemetery.
00:27:12I'm an asshole.
00:27:16You're an angel.
00:27:20We have a dinner with a member of the board tomorrow night.
00:27:26So I have to behave.
00:27:32And so do you.
00:27:39The board flew into a panic when they read about your secretary expose, I mean.
00:27:44I can't say we're not relieved to see you settle down.
00:27:47Sure, yeah, it's given me a lot of focus.
00:27:51Actually, I was just talking to my father the other day about a new opportunity for us in France.
00:27:58Come on, I want to hear about how you and Angela met.
00:28:01Oh, we always talk about Angela.
00:28:06Which I'm sure she's getting sick of.
00:28:11He just gets choked up talking about it.
00:28:14Such a softy.
00:28:17We met in a graveyard.
00:28:20I was visiting my mom.
00:28:24It had just come from a bad job interview, and he was having a bad day, too.
00:28:30We got to talking, and the rest is history.
00:28:35What were you interviewing for?
00:28:37An engineering position.
00:28:39It's what I studied. I just had to take a hiatus from work to take care of my dad.
00:28:43Where did you get your degree?
00:28:45Harvard.
00:28:50You studied engineering at Harvard?
00:28:56My son's idea of a joke.
00:29:01I...
00:29:03She would never let me forget how smart she is.
00:29:07So, Angela, what do you think of Xavier's new big idea, the Paris deal?
00:29:12Well, who could say no to a face like that?
00:29:16I don't know, I'm serious.
00:29:18Seems like you have a good head on your shoulders. What do you think of this direction for the company?
00:29:23Honestly?
00:29:25I mean, with all due respect, this Paris deal doesn't matter one bit.
00:29:30Well, it doesn't. There's always going to be some new cutting-edge technology,
00:29:34and it doesn't matter if Knight Enterprises acquires this tool or the next one that hops up.
00:29:40What matters is whether or not this guy's in charge.
00:29:45It could be anything.
00:29:47He'll make it worthwhile.
00:29:49I promise, if nothing else, Xavier is relentless.
00:29:52Okay, maybe it's not my place, but I don't really see this as a question of the company's direction.
00:29:57You know, in moments like this, you don't want to follow a compass.
00:30:01You want to follow a leader.
00:30:14So, Harvard, huh?
00:30:17The tone of surprise in your voice is fairly insulting, but yes, Harvard.
00:30:25I'm not used to being around smart girls.
00:30:30Maybe everything they said just went right over your head.
00:30:34There you go.
00:30:37Being all smart again.
00:30:39I like it when you're smart with me.
00:30:53What the fuck?
00:31:00So, how are you?
00:31:02I'm fine.
00:31:04You?
00:31:06So, how are you, Dad?
00:31:08Fit as a fiddle. The tumor has completely stopped growing.
00:31:12Thank God for that. Surgery's in two weeks.
00:31:16The day after your wedding. Are you excited?
00:31:19Sure.
00:31:22To be honest, kiddo, you don't seem very happy at all.
00:31:27No. No, I am.
00:31:30Really? You can always walk away.
00:31:33I want to marry him.
00:31:38I love him.
00:31:41Alright, darling, just be careful.
00:32:00Did you cook?
00:32:02Did you cook?
00:32:04Someone did.
00:32:06But I paid for it.
00:32:09Figured you were hungry.
00:32:12Thanks.
00:32:20That's guy?
00:32:23No.
00:32:25Another woman then?
00:32:27What makes you say that?
00:32:28You get this, like, satisfied look on your face when you're getting attention from women.
00:32:33And how would you know that?
00:32:35Remember?
00:32:37I've seen you in...
00:32:40In coitus.
00:32:42In coitus?
00:32:46My God, maybe you are not. Wow.
00:32:51So, you have thought about it?
00:32:54Thought about what?
00:32:56Me?
00:32:58In coitus?
00:33:02I would never touch a man who wasn't faithful.
00:33:05Oh, I see.
00:33:07So, you're attracted to me, but the only thing stopping you is that there's other women.
00:33:13Mm-hmm. Yeah, you can just go ahead and tell yourself whatever story you want to believe.
00:33:17Huh.
00:33:20Okay.
00:33:24Let's do a test then, huh?
00:33:28How long would it take me to get Angela Carter to blush?
00:33:34Okay, stop it.
00:33:58How much do you like seeing me on my knees?
00:34:14That's about 30 seconds.
00:34:2030 seconds? Oh my God, that's nothing. That's all it took for me to get Angela Carter to blush.
00:34:29Okay.
00:34:35So, things are really going well with Xavier.
00:34:39You know you keep asking me that?
00:34:41I just want to make sure that he treats you well. Respects you.
00:34:46Well, thank you so much for your concern. Why don't we just talk about this in a few minutes?
00:34:58Okay.
00:35:10Hey, is my phone over here?
00:35:15What are you doing?
00:35:20I'm so sorry. I don't know what came over me.
00:35:25Were you reading my texts?
00:35:26I can explain. I'm worried about you, Angela. I'm worried about Xavier.
00:35:31Dustin, where is this coming from?
00:35:33I ran into Skye from college. And she said that she ran into you and Xavier.
00:35:39Well, she said she did a little more than run into Xavier. I don't know if you know this.
00:35:45I know he sleeps around.
00:35:47And that doesn't bother you?
00:35:49It's none of my business. But why didn't you tell me you ran into Skye?
00:35:57I think I was trying to protect you.
00:36:00Look, I appreciate that. But I don't need to be coddled. In the future, just try and talk to me.
00:36:08Okay? No more snooping and no more secrets.
00:36:12Never again.
00:36:14Never again.
00:36:25Thanks for trusting me, Mr. Graydon. I think this Paris deal could be exactly the answer we've all been looking for.
00:36:33I couldn't be happier.
00:36:43I love you.
00:37:14Something wrong?
00:37:18Are you sure you didn't study acting at Harvard?
00:37:22Excuse me?
00:37:24I mean, you got the chops for it.
00:37:29Did you even go to Harvard?
00:37:31Xavier, what the fuck are you talking about?
00:37:33I saw you and Dustin.
00:37:35Oh my God. This again?
00:37:37You trying to make me look foolish? You've put my entire reputation on the line.
00:37:41How long have you two been together?
00:37:43Haven't we done this already?
00:37:45That's what makes it so humiliating because I actually started to believe you.
00:37:49Just stop it. You're overreacting.
00:37:51Oh yeah? Is this overreacting?
00:38:02Yeah. Definitely.
00:38:04So I'm the bad guy now, huh? Because I actually value commitment.
00:38:09Commitment? You're always with a different woman.
00:38:11So you have been seeing him.
00:38:13Dustin's gay, you idiot.
00:38:19Oh.
00:38:21Well...
00:38:25I haven't been seeing other women.
00:38:28What?
00:38:30Not since the dinner.
00:38:32Why?
00:38:35I don't know.
00:38:36I don't know.
00:38:41Xavier, who hurt you?
00:38:44No one.
00:38:46Well, you're lashing out.
00:38:48That's what my father says.
00:38:52Matt.
00:38:54That's mine.
00:38:58The man who broke my heart.
00:39:02Made me believe it would hurt less to never put it back together again.
00:39:07Sigh.
00:39:23Claudia.
00:39:36She was...
00:39:39Everything that I ever imagined in a woman.
00:39:43Wild in all the right ways.
00:39:45No one had ever been able to keep up with me like that before.
00:39:50You know, I thought I'd finally met my match.
00:39:54So after a few months, I proposed.
00:39:59And...
00:40:01The night before the wedding...
00:40:03She's gone.
00:40:06Ran off with my best man.
00:40:12I guess I had really met my match.
00:40:15So you thought...
00:40:17Me and Dustin before the wedding.
00:40:28I know what it's like to be hurt.
00:40:30I know what it's like to be hurt.
00:40:32But you can't live in fear forever.
00:40:37It's only a matter of time until I scare you away.
00:40:41So is that what you've been doing?
00:40:44Pushing me away on purpose because you're scared to do it by mistake?
00:40:48Everyone leaves eventually.
00:40:55You will too.
00:40:56I know this may be hard to imagine, Xavier.
00:41:00But I'm not afraid of you.
00:41:03And I'm not running away.
00:41:27Do you want this?
00:41:30Yeah.
00:41:57What?
00:41:59Nothing.
00:42:02It's just...
00:42:05We're getting married tomorrow.
00:42:09I know.
00:42:11Can you believe it?
00:42:13I know.
00:42:15I know.
00:42:17I know.
00:42:19I know.
00:42:21I know.
00:42:23I know.
00:42:24Can you believe it?
00:42:32Wait. Wait.
00:42:35Let's wait for our wedding night.
00:42:38Traditional.
00:42:40I like it.
00:42:43Wait.
00:42:45Stay with me.
00:42:49Nothing has to happen.
00:42:52Just stay.
00:42:55Okay.
00:42:57I'll stay.
00:43:25Dr. Bogdan?
00:43:30Ms. Carter, we've been trying to reach you.
00:43:33We were calling and calling, but you wouldn't answer.
00:43:36What happened?
00:43:38He was yelling out for you.
00:43:40We kept trying to call so you could be here to say goodbye.
00:43:43Why weren't you answering the phone, Angela?
00:43:45Wait.
00:43:47Are you saying that...
00:43:49We lost him, Angela.
00:43:51Your father's dead.
00:43:52Your father's dead.
00:43:56Hey, it's okay. It's okay.
00:43:58I'm sorry.
00:44:00I was dreaming.
00:44:01My dad...
00:44:07I, um...
00:44:09Lost my mom...
00:44:12When I was 17.
00:44:19Fucked me up for life.
00:44:23I lost my mom when I was 10.
00:44:27So, mine's like...
00:44:30Way sadder.
00:44:37Yeah.
00:44:42I still feel her, though.
00:44:45You know?
00:44:48Sometimes more than others.
00:44:53With some people.
00:44:55More than others.
00:44:57I know what you mean.
00:45:02Will you come somewhere with me?
00:45:06Are you forgetting that we're supposed to be getting married?
00:45:09Come on, please. For me.
00:45:17Okay.
00:45:23Sometimes I feel like she's watching over me.
00:45:26Like the things in my life happen because she orders them to be.
00:45:31This is who you were visiting...
00:45:33On the day we met.
00:45:35Met?
00:45:36You were a total asshole.
00:45:39I was...
00:45:41Having a bad day.
00:45:43I know my father will always be with me in this way, but...
00:45:47I'm not ready to lose him.
00:45:49I'd do anything to keep him here with me.
00:45:53Even marry a rich asshole?
00:45:56Especially marry a rich asshole.
00:46:01It's a crazy coincidence.
00:46:04Both of our moms are buried in the same place.
00:46:08Maybe it's a coincidence.
00:46:12Maybe it's fate.
00:46:22Dad.
00:46:40Oh, there you are.
00:46:42You've got to get ready.
00:46:44Your wedding dress is in the bridal suite.
00:46:47I was worried you were going to get cold feet.
00:46:49Dad.
00:46:50Don't worry.
00:46:52We have time.
00:46:54I thought I was going to have to call a SWAT team to get you here.
00:46:56Nope. I surrender myself.
00:46:58Willingly.
00:47:00I don't know how you did it, Angela.
00:47:02You're amazing.
00:47:04Your dad would be so proud.
00:47:07I just wish he could be here.
00:47:09Well...
00:47:13Dad?
00:47:15Hey, kiddo.
00:47:17But your surgery's tomorrow. I thought you couldn't leave the hospital.
00:47:18Someone called him this morning and asked him to make a special exception.
00:47:24Thank you.
00:47:26And your fiancé has been hard at work.
00:47:28Seems like your honeymoon will have a little stopover in Paris to secure the deal.
00:47:32Really?
00:47:37Paris is just lovely this time of year.
00:47:44Claudia?
00:47:49Claudia?
00:47:53Claudia, what are you doing here?
00:47:55Well, I heard the good news.
00:47:57And had to see her for myself.
00:48:01You shouldn't be here.
00:48:03Aren't you going to introduce me?
00:48:07Angela, this is my friend Claudia.
00:48:10I think I mentioned her before.
00:48:12I think so.
00:48:14It's so good to meet you, Angela.
00:48:19Xavier.
00:48:21A minute alone?
00:48:23Where's Brandon?
00:48:25I would love to tell you all about it.
00:48:27I'm begging you.
00:48:29Leave.
00:48:31You're begging?
00:48:33But I would only need a moment.
00:48:35Angela, why don't you go get ready?
00:48:38I'll handle this.
00:48:40But the wedding?
00:48:41I'll be there.
00:48:45I promise.
00:48:47You are out of your mind.
00:48:49Showing up here is insane.
00:48:51Like you don't fucking love it?
00:48:53I don't.
00:48:55I've changed.
00:48:57I've heard that before.
00:48:59God, it turns me on when you act like you can control yourself.
00:49:02Claudia.
00:49:04You put on a good show.
00:49:06But I came here to see the beast.
00:49:08Come on, let's go.
00:49:09See the beast?
00:49:11Come on, rip my dress off me right now.
00:49:13Keep your voice down.
00:49:15Xavier, it's me.
00:49:17You think I'm going to believe that you've gone soft for some normie?
00:49:21You can fool everyone else, but I know there's something going on here.
00:49:26You don't know anything about her.
00:49:28But I know about you, Xavier.
00:49:31The real you.
00:49:33The animal.
00:49:35Encaged.
00:49:37Wild.
00:49:40The real you.
00:49:45I fucking knew it.
00:49:48Angela, wait.
00:49:57Angela, Angela.
00:49:59It is not what it looks like.
00:50:01Okay, I'm so sorry that you had to see that.
00:50:03It's fine, really.
00:50:07You never promised me anything.
00:50:10Angela.
00:50:12This was never about feelings.
00:50:14This was just an arrangement.
00:50:16For your future and for my father.
00:50:19Please.
00:50:20Please what, Xavier?
00:50:23I'm nothing to you.
00:50:26And you're nothing to me.
00:50:29Don't say that.
00:50:30Why not?
00:50:31Because I...
00:50:36Because...
00:50:40I...
00:50:43I thought so.
00:50:51Showtime.
00:50:52Let's go.
00:50:53Let's go.
00:51:07And so we mark this day of love and commitment.
00:51:11Do you, Xavier Knight, take Angela Carter to be your lawfully wedded wife?
00:51:19I do.
00:51:21And do you, Angela Carter, take Xavier Knight as your lawfully wedded husband
00:51:26through sickness and health as long as you both shall live?
00:51:48I do.
00:51:51Then please, present the rings.
00:52:04I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:52:07You may kiss the bride.
00:52:20Woo!
00:52:31You know...
00:52:34For a second there, I thought you were going to leave.
00:52:40I can't leave, Xavier.
00:52:44I'm trapped.
00:52:51Woo!
00:53:09I've been looking for you.
00:53:15Angela?
00:53:20I'm sorry about what happened with Claudia.
00:53:24She means nothing to me.
00:53:28I know.
00:53:31You do?
00:53:35No one means anything to you.
00:53:38That's not true.
00:53:41Angela...
00:53:46I love you.
00:53:50I love you too.
00:53:56Love isn't a single tender thought about me in the middle of the night, Xavier.
00:54:01I know that.
00:54:02And love isn't just wanting to fuck me either.
00:54:07I mean, to be honest, I don't even know if you're capable of love.
00:54:13Because love, Xavier, is a commitment to something more than every passing pleasure.
00:54:20It's sad, you know?
00:54:21Because you could be amazing if you believed in yourself for ten seconds.
00:54:25But you go from woman to woman, idea to idea, just hoping, praying one of them will distract you from the nothingness inside of you.
00:54:41You poor little rich boy.
00:54:44It must be so hard to have everything you could ever want and never have to choose anything.
00:54:51That's what you think of me?
00:54:55Yeah.
00:54:59Good to know everything's clear between us.
00:55:12I can't do this. She hates me.
00:55:15She doesn't hate you.
00:55:16She doesn't hate you.
00:55:18She told me my entire life is a distraction from the nothingness inside of me.
00:55:24Well, it sounds like I picked the right girl.
00:55:29Sometimes we need people in our lives to hold up a mirror to ourselves.
00:55:35And sometimes it's painful to see what's there.
00:55:38Doesn't mean she hates you.
00:55:39Then why does it feel like it?
00:55:42She's hurt, Xavier.
00:55:47She's trapped with me, Dad.
00:55:50Is it a trap? Really?
00:55:53Trust yourself, son.
00:55:57Choose something.
00:56:12What are you doing here?
00:56:14I thought you might want someone to wait with you.
00:56:18Until your dad gets out of surgery.
00:56:20I don't need you here.
00:56:23Okay.
00:56:27Do you mind if I stay anyway?
00:56:44I don't forgive you.
00:56:49Okay.
00:56:55I didn't want to kiss her.
00:56:57That must have been really hard for you.
00:56:59I'm just trying to say-
00:57:00Did you come here just to argue with me?
00:57:04No.
00:57:07No.
00:57:14But if I could just say one thing.
00:57:16I know that you're right all the time.
00:57:20You really are.
00:57:22But there's one thing that you're wrong about.
00:57:27I really do love you.
00:57:35Miss Carter.
00:57:38He did well.
00:57:40We were able to remove the tumor and
00:57:41he'll be fine.
00:57:43He just needs some TLC.
00:57:46Dad.
00:57:49Hey, beautiful.
00:57:52What's wrong?
00:57:54What's wrong?
00:57:56I've been sitting in a hospital for 12 hours
00:57:58hoping you weren't dead.
00:58:00Good to see you, Xavier.
00:58:02It's good to see you, sir.
00:58:06You should get some rest, Dad.
00:58:08We just wanted to say hi.
00:58:09We just wanted to say hi.
00:58:11You have to get ready for your big trip to Paris.
00:58:14Actually, sir.
00:58:16It'll just be me going, I think.
00:58:19So that Angela can be here.
00:58:21Is that true, dear?
00:58:23You're not going?
00:58:40The grey one matches your eyes.
00:58:45I don't forgive you
00:58:47before you get the wrong idea.
00:58:50Then
00:58:52why did you come back?
00:58:54Because even though I don't forgive you,
00:58:59I still believe in you.
00:59:02I believe you can do great things, Xavier.
00:59:05I believe you can do great things.
00:59:06I believe you can do great things, Xavier.
00:59:12And because I believe if I don't go with you,
00:59:14you are totally going to fuck up this Paris deal.
00:59:18But when we get back, it's over.
00:59:20You understand?
00:59:22The contract will have been fulfilled
00:59:24and we can go our separate ways.
00:59:27We can just forget about each other
00:59:30and act like this never happened.
00:59:34You really came back
00:59:37because you believed in me.
00:59:41And because you saved my dad.
00:59:44I can be mad at you all I want,
00:59:46but you followed through with your word.
00:59:53I knew what I was getting myself into.
01:00:00It's not your fault you broke my heart.
01:00:06I'm sorry.
01:00:36I'm sorry.
01:01:06I'm sorry.
01:01:24You're awake.
01:01:26You're safe now.
01:01:28Where am I?
01:01:30Angela, we're in a hospital.
01:01:33The plane...
01:01:36The plane?
01:01:38Yeah, there's a mechanical problem
01:01:40on the jet.
01:01:42We fell into the Atlantic.
01:01:44We were fine,
01:01:46but you hit your head.
01:01:48You've been in a coma for two days.
01:01:50We were in a hospital in Normandy,
01:01:53but my father had us flown back home last night.
01:01:56No, I...
01:01:58I don't understand.
01:02:00You're awake now.
01:02:02You're safe.
01:02:07Angela?
01:02:11Who are you?
01:02:17Doctor!
01:02:19Wait, what's going on?
01:02:21Angela, are you telling me that you don't know who I am?
01:02:23No.
01:02:25I'm your husband.
01:02:29You have a case of retrograde amnesia,
01:02:32not uncommon after severe head trauma.
01:02:34What the hell is that?
01:02:36It's a delayed mental reaction
01:02:38to events of extreme psychological
01:02:40or physical distress.
01:02:42She can make new memories,
01:02:44but for now,
01:02:46it seems that she has forgotten everything
01:02:48that came before this moment.
01:02:50Will she get better?
01:02:52Will she remember?
01:02:54There are no easy answers here.
01:02:56I mean, the brain is a delicate system,
01:02:58and we still don't fully understand it.
01:03:01There must be something.
01:03:03Well, there are steps you can take,
01:03:04but there is no guarantee
01:03:06you'll regain your memory.
01:03:08What steps?
01:03:10Get back to your routines.
01:03:12Your father said you love running.
01:03:14Let's spend time together.
01:03:16Xavier, remind Angela of all the memories you've shared.
01:03:19The reasons you fell in love in the first place.
01:03:29So we're married?
01:03:34Yeah.
01:03:38Are we happy?
01:03:41Of course.
01:03:44That was a long pause.
01:03:46It's hard seeing you like this.
01:03:50You're usually a very strong woman.
01:03:56It's actually one of the things
01:03:58that I love most about you.
01:04:00Well, just because I don't remember your name
01:04:02doesn't mean I'm not strong.
01:04:04Oh, my God.
01:04:10My name is Xavier Knight.
01:04:14You are Angela Knight.
01:04:19And you're my wife.
01:04:25Xavier.
01:04:28Xavier.
01:04:31What is it?
01:04:33I can tell I've said your name before.
01:04:37It's hard to explain,
01:04:39but there's an easiness to it.
01:04:44Like, I can close my eyes
01:04:46and my lips will remember what to do.
01:04:54Xavier.
01:05:03This is okay, Dad.
01:05:05She's at the hospital with her father.
01:05:07Yeah.
01:05:16I'll have to call you back.
01:05:23How'd you get in here?
01:05:25Thought you would've changed the locks by now.
01:05:27It's like you wanted me to come back.
01:05:29Made myself a drink.
01:05:30Hope you don't mind.
01:05:33Thank God that you're okay.
01:05:35When I heard the news,
01:05:37I was hysterical.
01:05:39I thought I lost you forever.
01:05:41Yeah, we got lucky.
01:05:43All things considered.
01:05:46How is she?
01:05:48She...
01:05:51Uh...
01:05:53She doesn't remember me.
01:05:57Well, isn't that awful.
01:05:59Well, isn't that awfully convenient.
01:06:04How dare you.
01:06:06She's in the hospital with a traumatic brain injury.
01:06:09Everyone would understand.
01:06:11She's damaged goods.
01:06:15I can't get you out of my head.
01:06:18I don't want you out of my head.
01:06:21I want all of you
01:06:23in all of me.
01:06:28Okay?
01:06:40Claudia, Claudia.
01:06:42Uh, no.
01:06:44Things are complicated, okay?
01:06:46I have a lot of things to sort through.
01:06:48What kind of things?
01:06:50I don't know who I am anymore.
01:06:52You are Xavier Knight.
01:06:54The billionaire son of a genius.
01:06:56You are a wild animal of a man
01:06:59who never believed in limits.
01:07:03Don't stop now.
01:07:05I never stopped loving you, Xavier.
01:07:09It was always you.
01:07:22Nobody else could keep up.
01:07:27No.
01:07:47Even with a traumatic brain injury,
01:07:49you still beat me.
01:07:51Winning definitely felt familiar.
01:07:52Yeah.
01:07:55What if I don't ever remember you?
01:08:00You will always be my daughter.
01:08:03Even if we have to start from the beginning.
01:08:06I'll teach you how to ride a bike again if I have to.
01:08:10It wasn't so long ago that I was the one on the hospital bed
01:08:14and you were taking care of me.
01:08:16The least I could do is repay the favor.
01:08:23Would Xavier come with me to visit you?
01:08:26Not until right before my surgery.
01:08:30Why is that?
01:08:32You hadn't met yet.
01:08:34It was very quick.
01:08:36You never even told me you were dating him
01:08:39and then he showed up one day and announced he was your fiancé.
01:08:43Does that...
01:08:45Does that sound like me?
01:08:47No.
01:08:49You were not the impulsive type.
01:08:50But...
01:08:52love has made people do crazier things.
01:08:57Yeah.
01:09:03I'm proud of you, son.
01:09:05For what?
01:09:07Not dying in a plane crash.
01:09:09This is what marriage is really about.
01:09:12In sickness and in health.
01:09:15I don't know if I can do it again.
01:09:16I don't know if I can do it again.
01:09:20I don't know if she'd want to.
01:09:22Life is about showing up, Xavier.
01:09:25It's about committing.
01:09:27Even when it's hard.
01:09:30The Paris team sold their technology to another company.
01:09:34So...
01:09:36we have to find a new way for the board to see your commitment.
01:09:41I was thinking of the night summer gala.
01:09:43I'm not in the mood to go to some party at your house, Dad.
01:09:46No.
01:09:48This year, we'll do it at yours.
01:09:50So the board can see you're ready to take over for your old man.
01:09:53I should be spending all my time with Angela.
01:09:55I want her there, too.
01:09:57A united front.
01:09:59Husband and wife, loyal to each other and to the company.
01:10:03I don't know if you've been reading up on the news, Dad.
01:10:06We were just in a plane crash.
01:10:08Maybe this can wait.
01:10:10You have a month...
01:10:12before the gala...
01:10:14to focus on Angela and her recovery.
01:10:16Do this for me, Xavier.
01:10:19And I'll announce you as CEO.
01:10:35It feels familiar...
01:10:38being with you.
01:10:40I'm glad to hear it.
01:10:42We just spend a lot of time together.
01:10:43Look, it kills me to say this, but...
01:10:45work is going to take me away for a month.
01:10:48Are you sure you're going to be okay with Xavier?
01:10:50I think so.
01:10:54Are you and Xavier...
01:10:57friends?
01:10:59Not quite.
01:11:01Why not?
01:11:03Well, he was jealous of me.
01:11:05Believe it or not, when you two first met.
01:11:10How did we meet?
01:11:14He...
01:11:16he hasn't told you?
01:11:19Uh...
01:11:21told me what?
01:11:26Dustin!
01:11:29Can I speak with you?
01:11:31Sure.
01:11:43It's nice to finally get some face time, Xavier.
01:11:45You've never seemed too interested in meeting me.
01:11:47Just accusing me of seducing Angela.
01:11:50So you've heard some stories?
01:11:53What do you know about how Angela and I met?
01:11:55Nothing really.
01:11:57Just that your father recruited Angela for a contract marriage...
01:12:00you bullied her, cheated on her, and never loved her.
01:12:03That's not true.
01:12:08Okay, the first stuff is true.
01:12:11And the middle stuff.
01:12:13But I do love her.
01:12:17Just please don't tell her about the arrangement.
01:12:21Why haven't you told her?
01:12:23I'm afraid I'll scare her away.
01:12:25With the truth?
01:12:27I know.
01:12:30I'm just afraid of losing her.
01:12:32Can't you believe that?
01:12:36Look, I will tell her.
01:12:38I swear.
01:12:40Just let me do it on my own time.
01:12:42Listen.
01:12:44I'm leaving for a month.
01:12:46By the time I come back, she better know.
01:12:50Or I'll tell her everything.
01:13:00Okay.
01:13:19So this is where we live?
01:13:21Yeah.
01:13:23You like it?
01:13:26It's beautiful.
01:13:28You hate it.
01:13:31Maybe I expected something a little...
01:13:34homier.
01:13:38But I'm just so happy to be back from the hospital.
01:13:42Well...
01:13:44get some rest, and I will be here for you if you need anything at all.
01:14:00Okay.
01:14:31Okay.
01:14:51Crazy coincidence.
01:14:53Both of our moms are buried at the same place.
01:15:00What?
01:15:24Was there another woman?
01:15:28No.
01:15:29No, no.
01:15:31I mean, yes.
01:15:33Before you.
01:15:36But she means...
01:15:38nothing to me now.
01:15:40You just...
01:15:41keep a locket with a picture in it next to our bed.
01:15:43You were sleeping in the other room, so I put it in there.
01:15:46To forget.
01:15:48Wait, why were we sleeping in separate rooms?
01:15:51I was...
01:15:53a very different man...
01:15:56before I met you.
01:15:59But you changed me.
01:16:01You made me better.
01:16:06But I don't think you ever really believed that I changed.
01:16:13So how am I supposed to believe you now?
01:16:16There was love between us.
01:16:19Really.
01:16:21And...
01:16:23maybe a fresh start's what we needed.
01:16:26You know, to start over.
01:16:27Start over?
01:16:28Yeah.
01:16:30As in...
01:16:31Forget the past.
01:16:33Date.
01:16:35You can take me for a test drive.
01:16:37See what you think.
01:16:39Well...
01:16:41I don't have a lot going on these days.
01:16:44Or if I do, I don't remember.
01:16:48I could go for a date.
01:16:51You free Saturday?
01:16:58Yeah.
01:17:04Finally.
01:17:05I was beginning to think you forgot about me.
01:17:08Listen to me.
01:17:09Look at me.
01:17:12It's over, Claudia.
01:17:16Seriously?
01:17:18Because of her?
01:17:19No, regardless of her.
01:17:22Okay? It's over.
01:17:25You're not right for me.
01:17:26You're not what I want.
01:17:29You're starting to sound like your father.
01:17:35Oh my god.
01:17:37It's your father, isn't it?
01:17:39Who else could convince you into making a decision this...
01:17:43predictable?
01:17:44Look, tell yourself whatever you need.
01:17:46Okay, Claudia?
01:17:47As long as I never see you around here again.
01:17:49Again.
01:17:57And for what it's worth...
01:18:02I love her.
01:18:06I'll get to the bottom of this, Xavier.
01:18:09I know you.
01:18:11I see you.
01:18:13And...
01:18:15you remember...
01:18:16that it doesn't get any better than me.
01:18:19Yeah.
01:18:39Angela?
01:18:41Angela Carter.
01:18:45I'm sorry.
01:18:46I got in a bad accident recently and my memories...
01:18:50it hasn't been the best.
01:18:52Of course.
01:18:54Your plane crash was all over the news.
01:18:57I'm Jacques.
01:18:58We were in school together.
01:19:01Professor Hardy's anthro class at Harvard.
01:19:05I went to Harvard?
01:19:08Oh, you really did lose your memory.
01:19:11I'm so sorry. That must be so confusing.
01:19:14It is.
01:19:15I mean, mostly I'm meeting everybody for the first time.
01:19:19Including my mother.
01:19:22I'm sorry to hear that.
01:19:27Who are you here for?
01:19:29My aunt.
01:19:31But I think you might need these more.
01:19:35Thank you.
01:19:40So how exactly did we know each other?
01:19:42Besides the anthropology class?
01:19:46Well, Angela...
01:19:51We dated.
01:19:56Oh.
01:19:58But don't worry. You dumped me very quickly.
01:20:01Oh, I'm sorry.
01:20:04It's alright.
01:20:05I was hoping I'd see you again.
01:20:07But it seems I'm a little too late.
01:20:10Xavier Knight?
01:20:13Ah, yes.
01:20:14Xavier Knight.
01:20:16How's that going?
01:20:18Good.
01:20:20Confusing.
01:20:22I'm not surprised.
01:20:24He doesn't exactly seem like your type.
01:20:28What exactly is my type?
01:20:33Take my number.
01:20:35See me next week.
01:20:36And I'll tell you...
01:20:38everything that I remember about you.
01:20:42About us.
01:20:44Okay, Jacques.
01:20:59Wow.
01:21:03I was going to say the same thing.
01:21:13Bye.
01:21:20My dad says hello.
01:21:23He's excited to see you at the gala.
01:21:25Oh my god, I almost let myself forget about that.
01:21:29Did we do this kind of thing a lot before?
01:21:35Honestly...
01:21:36uh, no.
01:21:39But I'm trying to be more romantic.
01:21:43Is it working?
01:21:46Well, as handsome as you are...
01:21:50the music's a little loud.
01:21:53I hate roses.
01:21:56And I don't know what to say to you.
01:22:13Now...
01:22:15what was that?
01:22:17About...
01:22:19me being handsome?
01:22:22Well, at least you're open to feedback.
01:22:25More than you know.
01:22:28Let's start with getting to know you first.
01:22:31Then I can start on fixing you up.
01:22:42Oh, I ran into a friend from college at the cemetery today.
01:22:46Oh yeah?
01:22:47Yeah, yeah, it was really nice to see him actually.
01:22:50Seems like he can help me fill in some blanks.
01:22:52He?
01:22:59It might not be safest...
01:23:01to get close to strangers.
01:23:05Well, he's not a stranger.
01:23:07Still...
01:23:08I mean, you're pretty vulnerable.
01:23:12Someone could take advantage of you.
01:23:14Maybe tell you something that isn't true.
01:23:20Like what?
01:23:22I've...
01:23:23no idea.
01:23:28I just thought we agreed...
01:23:30that we were forgetting the past.
01:23:33But that doesn't include everyone in my past.
01:23:38Are you normally this jealous?
01:23:40I'm not jealous.
01:23:42So, no.
01:23:44I don't want you seeing that man again.
01:23:46And I don't want you telling me what to do.
01:23:58I mean, you were too nice.
01:24:00I mean, he was hanging upside down for an hour
01:24:03before you even noticed.
01:24:05Hanging upside down for an hour
01:24:07before you made me cut him down.
01:24:08An hour?
01:24:09Yeah.
01:24:10I mean, hey, it was good for him, right?
01:24:12Like, keep the circulation flowing.
01:24:14And plus, come on, he deserved it
01:24:16for the way he was touching you like that.
01:24:18You are just a knight in shining armor.
01:24:21More like a knight in a crimson hoodie.
01:24:23But I'll take it.
01:24:26So why did we break up?
01:24:30I...
01:24:31just wasn't ready to handle you.
01:24:34Oh?
01:24:36You were so put together.
01:24:38I mean, you were so perfect.
01:24:40I just...
01:24:41I couldn't keep up.
01:24:43Plus, I mean, I can't believe
01:24:45you got with Xavier freaking Knight.
01:24:48Why?
01:24:49Come on.
01:24:50Xavier Knight, the man responsible
01:24:52for turning that charity poker event
01:24:54into strip poker?
01:24:56Wait, what?
01:24:58I...
01:25:01I had no idea that...
01:25:03This must have been a while ago.
01:25:05Ah, yes.
01:25:06The deep past of six months ago.
01:25:13You know he was engaged before, right?
01:25:15Right.
01:25:17Yeah, that, um,
01:25:18Claudia lady.
01:25:20But he says he hasn't seen her
01:25:22since she left him at the altar.
01:25:26Angela, it was all over the tabloid.
01:25:31What?
01:25:33Claudia was at your wedding.
01:25:36She was there with you both.
01:25:38Right before your accident.
01:25:52Am I interrupting something?
01:25:54No, would you like to join?
01:25:56This is Jacques, my friend from college.
01:25:58Uh, I was actually just leaving.
01:26:00No, you weren't.
01:26:01No, no, no, it's fine.
01:26:02Angela, it was really great seeing you.
01:26:04Xavier, nice to meet you.
01:26:19Is there something you want to tell me?
01:26:22Like...
01:26:23Like why you're drinking wine
01:26:26with a man in my home?
01:26:29Our home.
01:26:33Right.
01:26:35You're right.
01:26:40You're right.
01:26:41You're always right, huh?
01:26:46You've been lying to me.
01:26:48What do you mean?
01:26:49Claudia?
01:26:51She was at our wedding.
01:26:53I thought you weren't in touch with her anymore.
01:26:55No, we weren't.
01:26:56Okay, she showed up to our wedding like a maniac.
01:26:58I told her to leave.
01:27:01She made a move on me, and you saw.
01:27:03I tried to explain, but you were so hurt.
01:27:08You wouldn't believe that the only thing
01:27:10I was thinking about that day
01:27:12was how happy I was to be married to you.
01:27:17Angela,
01:27:19look into my eyes.
01:27:21Can't you see that I'm telling you the truth?
01:27:26Honestly, Xavier,
01:27:29I think you're only telling me part of it.
01:27:38I'm so sorry about the other day.
01:27:41Oh, not at all.
01:27:43It's fine.
01:27:44Is everything alright between the two of you?
01:27:47I don't know.
01:27:49I mean, I can't tell if I'm losing my memory or my mind.
01:27:53Well, are you remembering anything yet?
01:27:58Sometimes I have these flashes,
01:28:02like little photographs.
01:28:05My dad in the hospital,
01:28:07walking in this park,
01:28:11Xavier.
01:28:13Are they triggered by anything in particular?
01:28:18Maybe.
01:28:19Maybe.
01:28:21When I go to familiar places,
01:28:23or moments of intense emotion,
01:28:25or when I'm running.
01:28:27I don't know, it's kind of hard to predict.
01:28:31Well,
01:28:33maybe we can try to trigger them.
01:28:37See if you remember me.
01:28:43Angela.
01:28:50Jack.
01:28:54Jack, thank you.
01:28:57You're married.
01:29:00Yeah, I guess I am.
01:29:04And even though I don't remember it,
01:29:05I don't think I'm ready to give it up.
01:29:09I'm sorry if I overstepped.
01:29:13I hope I didn't ruin anything.
01:29:15I would still love to be friends, though.
01:29:17So would I.
01:29:20Well, I gotta get going.
01:29:22Xavier says he has something planned for us tonight.
01:29:25Hey, well enjoy.
01:29:26I think she's starting to like me.
01:29:56Xavier?
01:29:57Hello, darling.
01:29:59This is Kiki.
01:30:00She's going to teach us how to dance.
01:30:04Xavier, no, I really need to talk to you.
01:30:07And I can't dance, so...
01:30:10That's what Kiki's here for.
01:30:15Just give me a second.
01:30:17I'll be right back.
01:30:19I'm sorry.
01:30:21I'm sorry.
01:30:23I'm sorry.
01:30:25Just give me a sec, Kiki.
01:30:32Angela, I know I fucked up.
01:30:35But the gala's in a few days,
01:30:36and we have to dance together there,
01:30:38so I thought maybe this could be fun.
01:30:41We really need to talk.
01:30:44I saw Xerox today, and...
01:30:46What did he tell you?
01:30:48He didn't tell me anything, but...
01:30:50Enough talking.
01:30:53Let's dance.
01:30:56Dancing is about letting your bodies talk to each other.
01:30:59Xavier, put your hand on Angela's waist.
01:31:03Now take her hand.
01:31:07Good.
01:31:12Your bodies are saying strangers,
01:31:14not husband and wife.
01:31:16Pull her in closer, Xavier.
01:31:20Yes.
01:31:23Now.
01:31:47Right eyes, big smile.
01:31:49Okay, I can't do this.
01:31:50Dancing is about trust.
01:31:53Angela, you have to let your partner lead.
01:31:56I'm finding it kind of difficult.
01:32:01Angela, I'm sorry about the Claudia thing.
01:32:04I should have told you.
01:32:07Please, just trust me.
01:32:12Just try.
01:32:16Surrender.
01:32:18I've got you, Angela.
01:32:20I've got you.
01:32:28That's it.
01:32:31Now, one, two, three.
01:33:21Great.
01:33:23I'd say we are on the mark.
01:33:26I'm going to let you two lovebirds get to it.
01:33:35I'm sorry, Angela.
01:33:38I haven't always been a good man.
01:33:41I'm sorry about how I handled the Jacques thing,
01:33:43and I'm sorry about Claudia.
01:33:45I'm sorry about all this.
01:33:47This is not a simple marriage.
01:33:50I am not a simple man.
01:33:54No, you are not a simple man.
01:34:00There is something between us.
01:34:04And with you, I can be better.
01:34:09I have been better.
01:34:11I can be better.
01:34:14I have been better.
01:34:17Is it over with that woman?
01:34:20With Claudia?
01:34:22Yes.
01:34:24Forever?
01:34:26Yeah.
01:34:31It's just you.
01:34:41It's just you.
01:35:11It's just you.
01:35:41I'll get it.
01:35:45Don't move.
01:36:07What are you doing here?
01:36:09I just came to check on Angela.
01:36:12Check on her?
01:36:14Who the fuck do you think you are?
01:36:16Look, I just heard a little something that I think she should know.
01:36:20Oh yeah? What's that?
01:36:21Well, I heard a little rumor that
01:36:25your father brokered an arrangement between the two of you.
01:36:32I don't know what you're talking about.
01:36:36Does she know?
01:36:38You better stop talking.
01:36:39She deserves to know the truth.
01:36:41Stop talking.
01:36:43Xavier, stop!
01:36:47You're too good for her.
01:36:49Get the fuck out of my house.
01:36:52Go, Jacques.
01:36:53I'll see you at the gala.
01:37:02You invited him?
01:37:04You told me I could invite anyone I wanted.
01:37:09So he told you about the kiss?
01:37:16What kiss?
01:37:22Oh.
01:37:25Okay, he kissed me today.
01:37:27But that's what I was trying to tell you before I got kiki'd.
01:37:30Okay, but I stopped it. It meant nothing.
01:37:32And he understands we are just friends.
01:37:34Friends?
01:37:35You want to be friends with him after that?
01:37:38Well, he understands parts of my life I'm trying to remember.
01:37:43I need to take a walk.
01:37:46No, please don't go just because it's hard.
01:37:48Stay with me.
01:37:50Tell me what you're feeling.
01:37:54I'm feeling like I can't stand the thought of another man's hands on you.
01:37:59Another man's lips.
01:38:01I'm feeling like I need all of you.
01:38:06Right now.
01:38:11Then take me.
01:38:13I'm all yours.
01:38:36I can't believe I forgot this.
01:38:41I'm going to give you a night you'll never forget.
01:39:06Oh.
01:39:08The gala's tonight.
01:39:10Feeling up for it?
01:39:12Yeah, I think I can handle it.
01:39:15We'll go.
01:39:17We'll dance.
01:39:19And then I'm bringing you right back to bed.
01:39:22Got it?
01:39:24Got it.
01:39:36Hi.
01:39:48Hi everybody, how's it going?
01:39:50Alright.
01:39:54Angela, nice to meet you.
01:40:06Hey.
01:40:15Dustin? Oh my gosh.
01:40:17I didn't know you were coming tonight.
01:40:19When did you get back?
01:40:20This morning.
01:40:21I just wanted to check on you, make sure you're feeling alright.
01:40:23She's doing great.
01:40:24I really am.
01:40:26And how's the memory?
01:40:28It comes in flashes, but it's much more frequent now.
01:40:32I'm really just so grateful to this life I've woken up to.
01:40:35I mean, to you, my dad, Xavier.
01:40:38We all love you, Angela.
01:40:40And we're rooting for a full recovery.
01:40:44Oh.
01:40:48I'll be right back.
01:40:52Can I talk to you for a second?
01:40:58She doesn't know?
01:41:00No.
01:41:02I'm going to tell her. Right now.
01:41:07Wait, Dustin.
01:41:10The thing is, do we have to tell her?
01:41:14I mean, she's so happy.
01:41:16You heard her.
01:41:18Why do you stabilize her like this?
01:41:20Why not let her believe in a reality where things are good and pure?
01:41:24You mean a reality where you are good and pure.
01:41:27You can't rewrite history, Xavier.
01:41:30You have to tell her tonight, or I will.
01:41:35Xavier, it's time for a quick photo op, then the dance.
01:41:39Yeah, coming.
01:41:42Just let me get through this.
01:41:46Anything for the company, right?
01:42:01How are you holding up?
01:42:03I think I'm okay.
01:42:05You're doing great.
01:42:07For you, my dear.
01:42:09Oh, good. I needed this.
01:42:12Cheers.
01:42:22Hey, is something wrong?
01:42:26I'm not sure.
01:42:28Oh, the photographer's ready for us.
01:42:30Oh, wonderful.
01:42:36You look so beautiful.
01:42:40You look beautiful.
01:42:43A gold digger.
01:42:50Hey, are you okay?
01:42:52Hello again, Mr. and Mrs. Knight.
01:42:54This is perfect. Just stand right there.
01:42:58Sorry, we're just gonna do a couple more.
01:43:03Let's get you a little bit closer together.
01:43:14I don't know who you are.
01:43:18I don't know what you want.
01:43:21Am I going to ruin your life?
01:43:35I remember.
01:43:38Angela, what are you talking about?
01:43:42This wasn't real.
01:43:45This was an arrangement.
01:43:48Angela, wait!
01:44:01How could he not tell me? How could I agree to this?
01:44:04I mean, what kind of person lies like that?
01:44:06What kind of person treats another like that?
01:44:08I know, I know.
01:44:10I remember it all.
01:44:12I remember Harvard. I remember engineering.
01:44:18But I don't remember anthropology.
01:44:27I don't remember you.
01:44:32Where did she go?
01:44:34She went to go talk to Jacques.
01:44:37He's probably looking at her wounds.
01:44:39Who?
01:44:41Jacques.
01:44:43Her college friend.
01:44:47There's no Jacques in college.
01:44:58Who are you?
01:45:00You don't know him?
01:45:01I've never seen him in my life.
01:45:03Oh my god.
01:45:04Who are you? Why would you do this?
01:45:06To get you away from him.
01:45:08Why?
01:45:10It wasn't my idea.
01:45:11Then whose idea was it?
01:45:14Tell me right now or I will make sure that you have no career, no future,
01:45:18not even a pot to piss in for the rest of your life.
01:45:21I will ruin you.
01:45:27Claudia. It was Claudia.
01:45:31She hired me.
01:45:33Said she would make it worth my while if I got her away from you.
01:45:36That you were bad news for her anyway.
01:45:38I should have known that she would try something.
01:45:40I'm gonna get this guy out of here.
01:45:44Why didn't you tell me about this?
01:45:46Why didn't you just tell me this was an arrangement?
01:45:49Because by the time of the accident, it wasn't just an arrangement to me anymore.
01:45:53The feelings were real.
01:45:55And I wanted to live in a world where maybe they could be real for you too.
01:45:57Like maybe, maybe we were meant to be together.
01:46:01I don't know what to say.
01:46:03Do you love me?
01:46:05I don't know, Xavier.
01:46:07Who are you?
01:46:09I don't know, Xavier.
01:46:11Who are you?
01:46:13You know me.
01:46:15Angela, you know the real me.
01:46:19You're the only person in the world who does.
01:46:27We have a problem.
01:46:33And I said, Xavier,
01:46:35who is this Angela Carter who's about to receive an outsized investment in Knight Enterprises?
01:46:40And he tells me, oh, you know, she went to Harvard.
01:46:44Harvard.
01:46:46Well, good for her, but that hardly makes her capable of supporting the leader of one of the largest Fortune 500 companies.
01:46:53I mean, does she even know what that means?
01:46:56On and on, he keeps talking.
01:46:59But I can feel something mysterious is going on.
01:47:03You know the little minx he is.
01:47:06And that's when I realized, poor girl, dad is sick.
01:47:11Wild boy, dad is rich.
01:47:14A perfect match.
01:47:16Claudia, you don't know what you're talking about.
01:47:20Don't I?
01:47:22You're telling me that you loved your wife from the moment you met her?
01:47:26You just knew she was the one and had to be married within a month?
01:47:30Claudia, you need to stop talking or you will regret it.
01:47:37Grow up, Xavier.
01:47:39I don't know who you think you are, but you need to leave my home.
01:47:43Oh, she speaks.
01:47:46So you deny it?
01:47:48You deny on the record that your marriage was a setup to make Xavier look good?
01:47:55I haven't denied anything.
01:48:01Yes, our marriage was an arrangement.
01:48:05At first it was a disaster, just like we thought it would be.
01:48:09But then slowly, as our expectations faded,
01:48:13the image we had of the other was replaced by the real person.
01:48:17And we couldn't help but fall in love.
01:48:20Xavier and I have had our ups and downs just like any other couple, but
01:48:24the truth is, I want to spend the rest of my life with him.
01:48:29Arranged or not.
01:48:31And even though he can be the most frustrating man on the planet sometimes,
01:48:35he has a good heart and a good soul, and he is trying, trying so hard for you guys to see that.
01:48:41He has a vision for this company and for this world, and he is worth listening to.
01:48:48One more thing.
01:48:50If you come near my husband or mess with my life one more time,
01:48:54I will make sure you are wiped from all living memory.
01:48:58I will turn you into a ghost.
01:49:04Now leave.
01:49:14And on that note, I have one more announcement.
01:49:18My son, Xavier Knight, will be taking over as the CEO of Knight Enterprises.
01:49:24Oh my gosh.
01:49:31I am so proud of you.
01:49:40May I have this dance?
01:49:54Thank you.
01:50:13Hey.
01:50:14Hey.
01:50:20You didn't have to do what you did tonight.
01:50:24But I would understand if you didn't want to stay in this house.
01:50:29Do you want me to leave?
01:50:31No. Of course not.
01:50:37Then I think I'd like to stay for a while.
01:50:54A few hours later
01:51:11You're awake.
01:51:19Who are you?
01:51:24I'm kidding. I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
01:51:27It's too soon.
01:51:30Who knew you were such a tease?
01:51:32Well, let me show you how big of a tease I can be.
01:51:54That's weird. My uncle never calls me.
01:51:58Uncle Bobby, hey.
01:52:03What hospital?
01:52:07Okay, I'm coming.
01:52:11It's my dad.
01:52:18He had a heart attack.
01:52:24I'll be back in a minute.
