Transcript
00:00I want a divorce.
00:13What?
00:15You have until the end of the week.
00:22I don't understand.
00:25On our third date, I had to help him pee.
00:31Zach's last girlfriend had left him right after the accident.
00:34I was hired by his family to be his nurse.
00:38It wasn't long before we were madly in love.
00:43While I mended his broken body, he mended my broken heart.
00:49We got married, and life was bliss.
00:53When you love someone that much, you would do anything for them.
00:57And I thought he felt the same way.
01:01Elyse? Elyse, did you hear me?
01:04What is this?
01:07I think it would be better for both of us.
01:09What?
01:12If we separate.
01:13I wanted to scream and demand an explanation.
01:17I could never let him go.
01:18Is this about Delaney?
01:23No.
01:34Take it.
01:36What?
01:42When you needed her most, she left you.
01:45I was here. I stayed with you.
01:48And now you've been compensated?
01:51Zach!
01:59Each time Zach offered me money, it felt like a knife in my chest.
02:16Elyse Russell, as I live and breathe.
02:18Henry Bear.
02:21Wow, what brings you here? What are you doing?
02:24Well, I'm in the market for a job, actually.
02:27You're looking for a job?
02:29We just lost someone.
02:31Really?
02:32Being busy made me forget about my troubles.
02:34And slowly, I managed to forget the past.
02:38Forget Zach.
02:41But just when I was moving on with my life, he showed up again.
02:49Elyse, I need to speak with you.
02:54Okay, I'll leave you two alone.
02:59What the hell do you want from me?
03:01Man, just calm down.
03:05I need to ask you a favor.
03:08I need to ask you a favor.
03:10And I want answers.
03:12It's my grandmother. She has to speak with both of us. It's urgent.
03:15Have you even told your family about the divorce?
03:19She has to speak with you specifically.
03:21I knew it. You haven't even bothered to sign the papers yet.
03:23Okay, one thing at a time, Elyse.
03:25Will you speak with my grandmother?
03:27I don't know, Zach.
03:29I'm worried something might be wrong. She just loves you so much.
03:32This isn't about you and me.
03:34This is about my grandmother.
03:36So don't do it for me.
03:38Do it for her.
03:40Please.
03:46Hurt people hurt people.
03:48And hurt people are just broken somewhere inside.
03:55I fix things.
03:57That's my nature.
03:59I can't help it.
04:07I can't help it.
04:15Elyse, wait.
04:17I have something for you.
04:21What is this? What are you doing?
04:23I wanted to say sorry for the whole services rendered thing.
04:25Yeah, that was pretty shitty.
04:27Elyse, please. My grandmother could not hear us arguing like this.
04:31Let's just, we'll talk later.
04:33Zach, I don't want your gifts. I want answers.
04:35It's just a small gift.
04:38I thought you'd look beautiful in them.
04:40He was deflecting with earrings.
04:42And I hate to say it, but it gave me hope.
04:44Maybe he still cared.
04:46I'm sorry.
04:48I know it's not fair,
04:50but I really can't think of anything but my grandmother right now.
04:52When we're done with this?
04:54When we're done with this, we'll talk.
04:59How are you?
05:00I'm dying.
05:02What did the doctor say exactly?
05:05My body's failing.
05:07In my final days, I want you both near me.
05:09At my side.
05:11My only remaining wish
05:13is that you both be happy together.
05:17And give me a healthy grandchild soon.
05:19To make sure this happens,
05:21I need you both to move in with me.
05:23Grandma.
05:25Geraldine.
05:27You call me grandma. I'm your family too.
05:29Grandma, we wouldn't want to be a burden to you.
05:31Elyse, you stood by Zach
05:34when he couldn't even stand.
05:36We all know how unpleasant he was
05:38to be around back then.
05:40You two need to continue
05:42the family bloodline.
05:44I want you both to be the heirs
05:46of the Blackwell fortune.
05:48What about the rest of the family?
05:50The rest of the family can go suck an egg
05:52for all I care.
05:54Stand by me in my final days
05:56and I will leave
05:58everything to you.
06:00Do this for me.
06:03Elyse.
06:11Hello?
06:13Is Zach with you?
06:15He's in the shower. May I ask who's calling?
06:17This is Del...
06:19His friend.
06:21I recognized her voice. It was Delaney.
06:23Well, he can't talk right now.
06:33Even today,
06:35looking at him made me shiver.
06:37His broad shoulders were undeniably attractive.
06:41I knew I was his past
06:43and I had nothing to do with his personal matters.
06:49What'd she do?
06:51What?
06:53Oh, Zach, you're going to hurt yourself.
06:55You did this.
06:57Didn't we?
06:59I didn't.
07:01You did this.
07:03Did what?
07:05Delaney. She's in the hospital.
07:07She must have thought we slept together.
07:09Zach, we are still married.
07:11She ate a bunch of pills.
07:13Her mother found her in the bathtub.
07:15Oh, my God.
07:17This is your fault.
07:19My fault?
07:21Yes. I didn't come home last night.
07:23She must have assumed the worst.
07:25It's you. You and my grandmother
07:27conniving against us.
07:29Come with me.
07:31I need you to tell her the truth.
07:33It wouldn't be pleasant,
07:35but it was the least I could do.
07:39All right. Everything's looking great.
07:41I'll be back to check on you.
07:49Hey.
07:51Hi. Easy, easy.
07:53I'm okay.
07:55Still, I felt bad for her.
07:57Going off the handle after a single night apart.
07:59But what I didn't expect to see
08:01was a mirror image of myself.
08:03What is she doing here?
08:05Hey.
08:07My grandmother and I were coming to an arrangement, okay?
08:09I'm going to explain everything.
08:11I just want to make sure you're okay right now.
08:13I had insomnia.
08:15I took some sleeping pills.
08:17I promise I wasn't trying to do anything.
08:19Delaney, you ate half the bottle.
08:21Elise?
08:23Can you explain what happened?
08:25We didn't want to disappoint his grandmother,
08:27and no wonder he fell in love
08:29with me at first sight.
08:31Was I just a copy of the past?
08:33I look exactly like her.
08:35Why didn't you ever tell me this?
08:37He has a type.
08:39Elise?
08:41I never promised you anything.
08:43I don't know you, Jack.
08:45Look, I'm a compassionate person.
08:47A fixer.
08:49But you have taken advantage of me,
08:51and I'm done.
08:53Elise, stop.
08:55Did you just listen to me? Stop.
08:57So deal's off then, huh?
08:59Look, I know you need the money.
09:01I'm doing this for Geraldine,
09:03not you.
09:05So I will be cordial with your family.
09:07I will be sweet
09:09around Geraldine.
09:11I'll even make eye contact with you.
09:13But once your grandmother
09:15is gone, we're through.
09:19So you admit it then, huh?
09:21It's always been a gold digger.
09:29Is everything
09:31all right, son?
09:33Yeah, everything's fine.
09:35My ex, Delaney,
09:37she ate a bunch of pills
09:39and they had to pump her stomach,
09:41but she's gonna be okay.
09:43Can you call her on the phone? I'd like to have a word.
09:45Yeah. Yeah, of course.
09:47It's ringing.
09:49Zach.
09:51I hope you're feeling better, dear.
09:53But my Zach is a married man,
09:55and I advise you
09:57to stay away.
10:15Jonathan.
10:17Jonathan?
10:19Oh, wait.
10:21I know.
10:23I'm Jonathan.
10:25No.
10:27Stop talking for two seconds.
10:29I am telling you right now,
10:31my wife has been saying his name
10:33nonstop in her sleep.
10:35Jonathan. Can you get that?
10:37I am paying you to find him.
10:39We tried everything, sir.
10:41Trust me, your wife has no connection to a Jonathan whatsoever.
10:43None. No Jonathans.
10:45I'm sorry, now.
10:47Okay.
11:05Hey.
11:07You seem a little off today.
11:09Everything all right?
11:11I'm fine.
11:13Did Zach do something?
11:15No, he did not.
11:17Well, if you ever need to talk,
11:19I'm here for you, okay?
11:21I'm fine, Henry.
11:23I'm your employee, not your girlfriend.
11:25I'm sorry.
11:27No, Henry.
11:29I'm sorry.
11:31It's all right.
11:33I gotta go.
11:35Are you good to lock up?
11:37Yeah.
11:39Good night.
11:43I was so consumed by my thoughts,
11:45I stopped paying attention.
11:47And that's when it got
11:49downright deadly.
11:55Oh, I'm sorry.
11:57We're closed.
12:01You're the granddaughter of John Williams.
12:03Yes.
12:05I've admired
12:07your work.
12:09Well, you can certainly come back
12:11and take a look at it tomorrow.
12:15Grab her.
12:25What do you want?
12:27Get her up.
12:29Get her up.
12:39What do you want from me?
12:47How long will it take you
12:49to restore this painting?
12:51How long?
12:53This is a, um,
12:55really elaborate piece.
12:57This painting is
12:59quite large.
13:01How long?
13:03Two weeks, at least.
13:05All right, good.
13:07You're coming with us.
13:09What?
13:11Cops are here.
13:13Freeze!
13:15Don't you move!
13:17Put it down!
13:19I'll kill her.
13:21Nobody needs to get hurt.
13:23Take it easy.
13:25I will kill her.
13:27Elise, it's gonna be okay.
