Transcript
00:00My ex-fiance eloped with another man the night before our wedding.
00:04Seven years later, I discover it was just a twisted setup by my mother to break us up.
00:09Zoe? What are you doing here?
00:12Blaine?
00:13I met her for the first time in seven years at the hospital.
00:16She looked beautiful.
00:18Tell me Zoe, where have you been?
00:20Why did you leave me just a night before our wedding?
00:23Is there someone else?
00:25I need answers!
00:28And then, she revealed the truth about that fateful night.
00:32Catherine, stop! How can you do this?
00:35I am about to marry your son Blaine tomorrow!
00:38Keep dreaming, you slut! You can never be a part of the Dexter family!
00:43Catherine, please! I'm carrying your grandchild!
00:47Shut your mouth! He's not my grandchild!
00:50I will kill you and that vermin groaning in your bed!
00:54My world came crashing down.
00:57The rage within me could burst out at any minute.
01:00Could my own mother really destroy my life?
01:03I'm so sorry Zoe, I had no idea you went through all that.
01:07But wait, Zoe, where is our child? Did he survive?
01:13Will Zoe reveal the fate of their child?
01:17Can Blaine forgive his mother for destroying their lives?
01:21Is there still hope for Blaine and Zoe to rebuild what was lost?
01:30How did you even know I was pregnant?
01:32A woman always knows.
01:35Too bad I have to kill you, Zoe.
01:42Blaine! Blaine!
01:44You're pathetic. You really think my son would give up his status as a surgeon to be with you?
01:49Mom!
01:52I trusted him!
01:56Don't bother calling for help. The maids already know where to dump your body.
02:07Wingard!
02:09Why don't you pick up?
02:20911, what's your emergency?
02:26That night, I died.
02:33Or at least, a part of me did.
02:37But that was only the beginning of a love story I never thought I'd live to tell.
02:44Because I wasn't the only one who survived.
02:48Thankfully, Max survived.
02:50Hey, Mom.
02:52But shortly after his birth, Max was diagnosed with leukemia.
02:57He'd been in and out of hospitals ever since.
03:03Hey, sweetie.
03:05We brought you both dinner.
03:07Oh, thanks, Mom.
03:09How's Max?
03:11Yeah, he's good. Just sleeping. Needs to rest.
03:15What's wrong?
03:16He just keeps asking if he's ever gonna have a dad.
03:19Why don't you just tell the real father to show up?
03:22Whoever he is.
03:23Why don't you take Zoe out with you to Honolulu's bar, as you're always going to?
03:30No. I don't need my older sister babysitting me.
03:34Well, thank you. I know you're just trying to help, but...
03:39I don't feel comfortable going around dating people when my son isn't here.
03:43When he's cured, I'll have more time.
03:45Zoe could never forget that face.
03:48It was Blaine Dexter, the father of Max.
03:52And somehow, he was now working in the same hospital where her son was being treated.
04:00Who is that?
04:02Hi.
04:03Excuse me.
04:04Who is that?
04:06Oh, that's Dr. Dexter, our new surgeon.
04:09Great, yeah. Is he single?
04:12Tifa.
04:15Hey, I really appreciate you two for visiting. I'm just feeling...
04:18Oh, so tired.
04:20Can we go?
04:21Sure, sure, sure.
04:24Zoe couldn't believe that out of all the hospitals in the city, this is the one Blaine worked at.
04:30She knew she had to protect herself and Max.
04:33It was for Max's own good.
04:35But how long could she avoid Blaine before he finds her out?
04:40Zoe had always said she'd find love when Max was cured.
04:43But she was starting to worry.
04:45What if that day never came?
04:47Hello?
04:49Hello?
04:51Earth to Zoe.
04:53Sorry, I'm so out of it.
04:55Well, you better focus, girly. I hear there's a big new project coming down the pipeline.
04:59But you didn't hear that from me.
05:01Seriously?
05:02Mm-hmm. Big hot shot with tons to spend.
05:05I really hope Talon finally gives me a chance.
05:07I really need that commission.
05:10Max's hospital bills?
05:17Talon Tailor Designs. Kortni speaking.
05:21Zoe, it's for you. Your sister's in the hospital.
05:25What?
05:27Hello?
05:30Yes, yes, of course. I'll be right there.
05:34My sister...
05:35My sister injured herself last night trying to get the attention of some guy.
05:38Shocker.
05:40Cover for me?
05:41Always.
05:42It seems like no matter what, Zoe just can't seem to escape the hospital.
05:47Ziva? What happened?
05:49Did Linda call you?
05:51Yeah, she said you were throwing yourself at some guy.
05:54Was not. I was dancing and I tripped.
05:58Besides, now the hot surgeon can save my life.
06:01Are you even injured?
06:03Maybe. Maybe not.
06:05Let's let the doctor decide that.
06:07Ziva, you can't just waste this doctor's time. What is wrong with you?
06:10Todd, I knew you were going to be a buzzkill about this.
06:12Okay, you know what? Get up. We're going home.
06:15Hi, Ms. Fuller. Sorry to keep you waiting.
06:18Your brain scans came back.
06:20I'm sorry, I didn't realize you had a guest. I can come back.
06:22No, no, no, no, no. Come on in. I was just going to ask for you.
06:26Perfect.
06:28Look, I don't see any cause for concern on your scans, so I think we can release you.
06:32What? No.
06:34I mean, I'm telling you there's something wrong. I don't feel right.
06:40There must be other tests you can do, right?
06:43Um, let's take a look.
06:47Well, this light with your eyes?
06:53It was him.
06:55The man Zoe had loved all those years ago.
06:58And the same one who happens to be the father of her sick child.
07:04Okay.
07:06Look, Ziva, I can usually tell the difference between a patient who is actually sick and one who isn't.
07:13What do you mean, Doctor?
07:16Would your friend here be able to drive you home?
07:18Home? My head feels awful, Doctor.
07:21I think I need to stay for another night or two.
07:24Ziva, I kind of need to focus on the patients who really need me.
07:27Maybe you're just dehydrated, you know, from your wild night.
07:31You know what? Maybe you're right.
07:34Zoe, can you bring me some water?
07:37Zoe?
07:55Oh, God.
07:56I know.
07:59Okay. Gotcha.
08:01It's really not that bad.
08:03No, no.
08:05Oh.
08:07Zoe forgot how magnetic Blaine's touch had always been.
08:10I should do it.
08:11How he could ignite so much inside her simply through his hands.
08:21You can let go of my hand now, Zoe.
08:23Oh, yeah. Sorry.
08:27Um, okay, well, Ziva, I think we'll have you transferred to another unit.
08:33Another unit? No, I don't want another doctor. I want you.
08:37I need to focus on the patients who actually need me, okay?
08:40And, Ziva, word to the wise, even if I wasn't engaged, your little trick wouldn't have worked.
08:46I don't condone being with a woman who abuses my trust.
08:49Stop.
08:55Zoe kicked herself for having false hope.
08:58Of course Blaine had moved on.
09:00Why can't you let me have anything for myself?
09:03You're not supposed to be here, Ziva.
09:05Who's your deal with him anyways? Why was he so cold to you?
09:08Zoe didn't know how to tell Ziva about her complicated history with Blaine.
09:13That he was the man that fathered Max.
09:16But now was not the time or place.
09:21I don't know.
09:22Okay, well, if you're just gonna suck up my attention, then you can leave.
09:29Bye.
09:30Thanks.
09:31Yeah.
09:32Bye.
09:35Hello?
09:36Zoe, hey, it's Talon. Are you still at the hospital?
09:39Courtney mentioned you had a family emergency. Is everything alright with Max?
09:43Yeah. Yeah, actually, it wasn't Max this time. It was my sister.
09:49But don't worry, I can be back at the office later.
09:52No, no, no, no. It's fine, Zoe. You work enough as it is.
09:56But I am emailing you right now a proposal for a new client.
10:03Big budget, big everything.
10:05Think you can handle it?
10:07Me? Seriously?
10:09Seriously. Seriously.
10:11He wants to meet tonight at 6pm at Waterford International's restaurant.
10:18Yeah, I'll be there.
10:23Finally, some good news.
10:31Things were finally looking up for Zoe at work.
10:35But she had no idea this dinner would be a brush with fate.
10:39Reservation under the name Fuller?
10:41No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
10:43You've got to be kidding me.
10:46No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
10:48Please don't see me. Please don't see me. Please don't see me.
10:57Talon Interiors, this is Zoe speaking.
11:00Talon Interiors, this is Zoe speaking.
11:03Are you joining me for dinner or not?
11:16You are my new client.
11:21And you are my new interior designer.
11:24I can call my boss and have him put somebody else on the project, given our history.
11:30That might be best.
11:32Don't be silly.
11:34We can be adults, right?
11:37Besides, I know how talented you are.
11:44Okay, well then, let's just dive right in, huh?
11:48I thought it might be a good idea to start getting your input with what you envision for your home.
11:52I'm going in on the mood.
11:54Going for your space?
11:59Let's eat first.
12:04Whatever you say.
12:07Boss?
12:09Were you always this testy?
12:13Always.
12:15Neither could deny it.
12:17The chemistry between them was electric.
12:19I thought that the wood made a nice contrast with the lighter colors.
12:24I really like the wood textures here.
12:26You're definitely on to something.
12:28I thought the textures were really interesting.
12:40I'm sorry if I'm overloading you.
12:43We definitely don't have to figure out everything tonight.
12:45No, it's not that.
12:49What is it?
12:52Why didn't you ever call, Zoe?
12:56Excuse me?
12:58Why did you leave?
13:00So suddenly, I mean, I had no idea where you went.
13:03How could she tell him the truth?
13:05What his own mother had done to her?
13:11She had to protect herself, and Max.
13:14She couldn't get wrapped up in the Dexters again.
13:20I'm so sorry.
13:23Hello?
13:25Yes, of course.
13:27Have her prep for surgery. I'll be right there.
13:30Is everything okay?
13:32It will be.
13:35I guess we'll have to continue this conversation further at another time.
13:41Hmm?
13:46As Zoe watched Blaine leave,
13:48she wished she could have explained everything to him in that moment.
13:52But she couldn't put Max at risk.
13:55Besides, patients needed his healing hands.
13:59She remembered when they healed her from her own terrible accident all those years ago.
14:04Oh, I'm not...
14:06I'm sorry. I can come back.
14:08It's okay. I...
14:10I'm kind of struggling with these...
14:16Do you mind if I help?
14:22What's your name?
14:24Zoe.
14:25Hi, Zoe.
14:27I'm Dr. Dexter.
14:29You can call me Blaine.
14:31As Blaine fastened Zoe's gown,
14:34a shiver ran down her spine.
14:37How's that feel?
14:39Yeah.
14:41Good, I guess.
14:45How's that?
14:52It's perfect.
14:53Blaine could feel something between Zoe and him.
14:57But he had to maintain professionalism.
15:01Oh!
15:02Oh, hey.
15:03You okay?
15:04Yeah, um, sorry.
15:06You seem nervous.
15:07No, no, no. It's just probably the accident.
15:11Yeah.
15:12Well, I think as a precaution, we should have you stay here another day.
15:15Will you be my doctor?
15:18Yeah.
15:20You don't like me?
15:22No, it's not that.
15:24I just, I don't want to...
15:26No, it's not that.
15:27I just, I don't want to, um,
15:30take you away from other patients that might need you more than me.
15:34Well, something tells me that you need mine.
15:37Little did he know,
15:38this same man would get me pregnant only ten months later.
15:52Blaine was engaged.
15:54Why was he paying for dinner and offering his private number?
15:58What could he want from her?
16:01I can't believe we lost him.
16:03I really thought he'd pull through.
16:15You seem distracted.
16:19Oh, hey, sorry.
16:21Yeah, I wish we could have saved him too.
16:25You know, for a moment there, I thought I saw a light on in you, Blaine.
16:28Thinking about your fiancée?
16:30Nope, just distracted.
16:32Well, who are you thinking about?
16:34Don't be ridiculous.
16:44I'm sorry.
16:46I'm sorry. I was just playing and my ball got away.
16:50Are you a doctor?
16:52I am.
16:53You look strong, like a superhero.
16:56What's your name, kid?
16:58I'm Max. What's your name?
17:00I'm Dr. Blaine Dexter.
17:02You can call me Dr. Blaine.
17:04Oh, you're the brain surgeon with the penthouse downtown.
17:08And your family's loaded.
17:10You live in Moore Park, don't you?
17:13Are you a detective?
17:15Oh, the nurses want to marry you.
17:17Are you single?
17:19Actually, I have a fiancée.
17:23What's wrong with having a fiancée?
17:26It's just, if you were single, I would have introduced you to my mom.
17:30My grandma always says she needs a good man to take care of her.
17:34And you look like a good man.
17:36Are you her matchmaker?
17:38She used to be married, but now they don't live together anymore.
17:42I'm sorry to hear that.
17:44So if I fall asleep one day and never wake up again, she'd be all alone.
17:49Well, then let's just hope that doesn't happen, okay?
17:52Who is your mom, anyways?
17:54Max, I've been looking for you everywhere.
17:56Let's get you to your room, okay?
18:00What's wrong with the little guy?
18:02Leukemia.
18:04His whole family's been tested, but we haven't found a match for a bone marrow transplant yet.
18:09Bye, Dr. Blaine.
18:11Blaine felt his heart ache at Ramona's answer.
18:14He knew how difficult it was to find that kind of donor.
18:19Max!
18:21There you are. Where'd you go?
18:23You have to stay in your room, you little troublemaker.
18:26Well, he struck up a friendship with the hot surgeon, Dr. Dexter.
18:36Hey, Max, sweetie, go in. I'll be right there.
18:40Ramona, Dr. Dexter cannot know who Max is.
18:45He can't know his last name. He can't know that he's related to me, okay? Do you understand?
18:48Zoe, what's going on?
18:50Please, just promise me.
18:53I promise you.
18:55Okay. Thank you.
19:00Zoe couldn't tell her that Blaine's mother attempted to take her life and Max's seven years ago.
19:06But she had to keep Max safe.
19:08And keeping the truth from Blaine was the only way.
19:12But would she be able to keep them apart forever?
19:16Only time would tell.
19:21Hi.
19:23Hi.
19:25I have no need to sit. Just wanted to check up on where you're at with Blaine Dexter.
19:29Okay.
19:31Dinner was great.
19:33He had to leave early on a hospital call, though, so now we're currently...
19:37Moving forward, as they should be.
19:40Right, Zoe?
19:42We cannot mess this deal up.
19:45As they should be. Right, Zoe?
19:47We cannot mess this deal up.
19:50Understood?
19:52Yes. I am on it, boss.
19:55That's what I like to hear.
19:58Mm-hmm.
20:15Hello?
20:17Hi. It's, um, me. Zoe.
20:20Zoe Fuller?
20:22This was impossible.
20:24How could Zoe be expected to work for him, given their history?
20:30Look, I know you may not want to work with me, but you're a very important client to us,
20:34and I would like to see this deal through.
20:36So I would appreciate if you could...
20:38Why don't we meet at my place?
20:40Tonight. At, say, six.
20:43At your place?
20:45Well, yeah. You need to see my furniture, don't you?
20:48Right. Of course.
20:51Is that okay with you?
20:54Mm-hmm.
20:55The spare key's under the mat, in case I'm not there yet.
20:57It's my fiancee's, but you can use it.
21:00I'll send you the address.
21:01Great. I will see you...
21:07Tonight.
21:08Zoe had almost forgotten Blaine was engaged.
21:12She knew she had to be strong.
21:14She had to move past her fears.
21:16You got this.
21:18But she had no idea that her darkest fears just might come true.
21:23Dr. Blaine Dexter, please.
21:25It's his mother. I need to speak to him immediately.
21:30Of course. This is his house.
21:34Suddenly, Zoe was dizzy.
21:36What was she doing?
21:38How could she meet with Blaine alone?
21:41After what Blaine's mother had done to her?
21:44She cursed herself for forgetting to eat today.
21:47Her mother was right.
21:49She wasn't taking care of herself.
21:53You again.
21:55I thought I got rid of you the first time.
21:57Catherine, please leave me alone. I'm just trying to provide for my son.
22:00You mean your illegitimate baby that you had with my son?
22:05Did you really think you could weasel your way back in?
22:12I will kill you.
22:14Make no mistake.
22:16If you try to get close to Blaine, I will end your life.
22:23But suddenly, in her hallucination,
22:26Zoe thought of Max and the life she wanted to provide for him.
22:31Screw you, Catherine.
22:33Zoe decided right then and there
22:35she wasn't going to let the Dexter family dictate her life.
22:39You can't scare me anymore.
22:41I'll show you who Zoe Fuller really is.
22:44But what did Zoe just walk into?
22:46Will Blaine stay with his fiancé, despite his growing feelings?
22:50And when will Zoe run into her attempted murderer, Catherine Dexter, again?
22:55Wow.
22:57So this is where Blaine lives.
22:59Be professional, Zoe. He's moved on.
23:03Have you been waiting long?
23:06Blaine, your house is amazing.
23:10Why do you need an interior designer?
23:12For our new home.
23:14Me and my fiancé.
23:17This doesn't have to be weird.
23:19We're both adults, right?
23:22I know you've moved on.
23:24And I have too.
23:27Is that why you were so jealous of sister being treated by me?
23:32I wasn't jealous.
23:34You know, she reminds me of a younger you.
23:37Impulsive.
23:40Flirty.
23:42So let's eat first.
23:57Our second date.
23:59I'm serious, Blaine.
24:01You need to stay professional.
24:03I already told you, I'm engaged.
24:06And you are...
24:08Single?
24:10And married.
24:11But Zoe was lying.
24:13She used to be married.
24:15But things changed.
24:17Good for you.
24:23You can leave those. We're waiting on another person.
24:27Who are we waiting for?
24:29Who do you think?
24:31Blainey.
24:32Sophia Quincy.
24:34Everyone knew Sophia Quincy.
24:36The heiress to the Quincy Corporation.
24:38An aerospace conglomerate.
24:40This was the kind of woman Catherine Dexter wanted Blaine to be with.
24:44It all made sense.
24:46Sophia, lovely to meet you, Chloe.
24:50Sorry.
24:51Sorry.
24:54Sorry.
24:55Sorry.
24:56Sorry.
24:57Look at us.
24:58Like kids.
25:01Let's talk interior design.
25:03Yes, yes.
25:06I have some mock-ups together if you want to take a look.
25:15Zoe couldn't deny how nice Sophia was.
25:19Gorgeous, rich, and kind.
25:25How could Zoe possibly compete with that?
25:34I'm so sorry, I...
25:36I actually have to go.
25:38Can't it wait?
25:40No.
25:41No, it's my son. He needs me.
25:43Oh, you have a son?
25:45How darling.
25:47Blainey and I cannot wait to have kids.
25:50Right, sweetie?
25:51Yes, I can grab him.
25:53Sure.
25:54Please, Miss Quincy, I will be in touch with you.
25:57Dr. Dexter, good to see you.
26:00Good to see you.
26:02Do you know her?
26:03Hardly.
26:04Little did Blaine know, he already had a child.
26:11She dropped this.
26:14Zoe?
26:15But Zoe could never let him find that out.
26:18Oh my god, that's the heart of the sea necklace.
26:22He couldn't believe that she still had it, after all this time.
26:26Could that mean she still held a torch for him?
26:30Like he did for her?
26:34Why would a low-level interior designer have something this expensive?
26:37She's not low-level.
26:40I need to use the restroom.
26:48But Sophia wasn't convinced.
26:54It's me.
26:56Look, I need some information on someone.
26:58An interior designer by the name of Zoe Fuller.
27:03Hey, what's going on? Where's Max?
27:05He had an episode. They stabilized him. He's fine.
27:08You can visit him soon.
27:10But they want to run a lot more tests.
27:13Tests? What kind of tests?
27:16The expensive kind.
27:17Money was tight, but Zoe knew she had a following.
27:21She knew she had to find out the truth.
27:24She knew she had to find out the truth.
27:27She knew she had to find out the truth.
27:30But Zoe knew she had a fallback option.
27:33I'm sorry, Zoe. I know money's tight for you right now, and just...
27:39Zoe.
27:43Zoe, are you okay?
27:44Zoe.
27:45The only hope Zoe had of paying for Max's treatment was gone.
27:52Blaine.
27:54So what's a married woman doing on my doorstep in the middle of the night?
27:58Look, I'm just going to cut to the chase, okay?
28:01Do you have my necklace?
28:02Don't you mean my necklace, since I'm the one who gave it to you?
28:05Blaine, please. Not now. I just... I need... I need that necklace.
28:09For what?
28:11For remembering the guy you left behind all those years ago?
28:15For no reason?
28:17That's not...
28:18You broke my heart, Zoe.
28:20You broke my heart, Zoe.
28:29Blaine could never know the truth.
28:31That she was forced to leave.
28:34Forced for her own safety.
28:36I can't do this. Forget it.
28:38Wait.
28:42What?
28:44Turn around.
28:48Turn around.
28:49Could he tell how badly she wanted him?
29:12Don't lose it again.
29:13I can't.
29:16More confused than ever, Zoe had what she needed to pay for Max's treatments.
29:22But given the history, could she really sell it?
29:27I came as soon as I heard.
29:32This is Matthew.
29:34The man she married.
29:36And the heart she had broken.
29:39All because she could never stop thinking about her first true love.
29:43Blaine Dexter.
29:48What am I supposed to do?
29:50We will get through this.
29:52Alright?
29:53Together.
29:55It was driving him crazy.
29:59Let's go to bed.
30:00It's been so long since we...
30:02I can't.
30:04The hospital needs me.
30:05The hospital needs me.
30:12It wasn't just the hospital that needed Blaine.
30:15Blaine might be Max's only hope.
30:18But could Zoe tell Blaine the truth?
30:20They said the chemo would work and it's not working.
30:22Look, this can happen with chemo.
30:25Patients can build up a tolerance to it, then it loses efficacy.
30:30Zoe, I looked over Max's chart.
30:33He has chronic toxic hepatitis.
30:36Now, there are ways of treating this, but...
30:38Let me guess, it's really expensive.
30:42The bills just keep racking up.
30:43I'm never gonna get out of it.
30:46And in that moment, Zoe knew what she needed to do.
30:49Matthew.
30:52I know we're not married anymore, but...
30:55I can't give you any more money, Zoe. I'm sorry.
30:57It's not that, it's just...
30:59Could you watch Max tonight?
31:03I have something that I need to do.
31:06Of course.
31:11Tell me.
31:12The patient is in triage.
31:14Okay, thanks.
31:15Yeah.
31:22That's the husband, huh?
31:27What does he have that I don't?
31:58Long night, Dr. Dexter.
32:01You were incredible in surgery.
32:02Thanks for welcoming me.
32:04I'm headed home.
32:05Gotta get some sleep.
32:07Page me if anything comes in, okay?
32:15Oh!
32:16Oh!
32:18Sorry.
32:20Oh, good thing your coffee was cold.
32:28You in a hurry to see your husband, Zoe?
32:30She couldn't risk him knowing that she was there for Max.
32:34He couldn't know about him.
32:35Why else would I be here?
32:37Good.
32:39Do you need to change out of that shirt?
32:47Probably.
32:58Here's your shirt.
33:03Alright, I'll turn around.
33:06Where's your necklace, Zoe?
33:11I, uh...
33:14Zoe, where is your necklace?
33:19I had to sell it.
33:20You sold it?
33:23Why?
33:24I...
33:25Why?
33:26I...
33:27Why would you sell it?
33:30Why?
33:31I can't tell you.
33:35I...
33:36So that's what I meant to you?
33:37No.
33:39I guess that settles where we stand.
33:40Dr. Dexter.
33:41Dexter.
33:42Yeah, yes.
33:43Um, sorry, but we need you in surgery.
33:45We've got a complicated case.
33:46Yeah, I'll be right there.
33:47Blaine, please let me explain to you.
33:49I just need to be...
33:50Whatever the reason, I hope you got what you needed.
33:56Huh.
34:04Hi!
34:06I'm so sorry I'm late.
34:07I got held up at work.
34:10At work?
34:12Huh.
34:13It's so funny.
34:14I called your office and they said that you weren't there.
34:18That you spend a lot of time at the hospital.
34:21Yes.
34:22Yes.
34:24I have family there.
34:26How convenient.
34:30So are we going to go over designs or not?
34:33Of course.
34:35Of course.
34:36So, I was thinking that we could draw some inspiration from...
34:46Oh, my necklace.
34:48I found it at a pawn shop.
34:50It's so funny.
34:51The kinds of things that you can find in most surprising places.
34:59It definitely suits you.
35:02I know.
35:03It does.
35:05Oh, and Zoey.
35:08I don't like people envying my things.
35:11So, keep your eyes on your own jewelry.
35:18Understood.
35:21Understood.
35:24Miss Quincy.
35:27Did Sophia know what was happening between Zoey and Blaine?
35:31Did she know that Zoey sold the necklace to a pawn shop?
35:34And was she trying to take revenge?
35:42Hi, baby.
35:44Sophia.
35:47Listen, I think we need...
35:51What's wrong?
35:52That necklace. Where did you get that necklace?
35:54I bought it at a pawn shop.
35:57A pawn shop?
35:59Clearly, whoever sold it didn't care about it.
36:01Take it off.
36:04Now.
36:05Why?
36:08Tell me.
36:12I know it was hers, Blaine.
36:15You know nothing.
36:17I know she sold it.
36:19And that says a lot.
36:21If it helps, apparently she needed the money.
36:25Badly.
36:27She did?
36:28So forget about the poor, pathetic interior designer.
36:36And start thinking about the future.
36:40Your wedding.
36:42The hospital needs you.
36:44Of course.
36:46Don't tell me. Just go.
36:48Blaine knew that no matter how hard Sophia tried,
36:52she would compare to Zoey.
37:01Zoey, just the gal I wanted to see.
37:05Look, since you are taking on big accounts now,
37:08I'm sending you to Scottsdale for a couple days.
37:12There's a huge opportunity there with a new client.
37:16I need you to close the deal.
37:18Talon, that is so great.
37:20But I...
37:21But?
37:22Zoey, this is what you wanted, isn't it?
37:29Yes.
37:30Of course.
37:33Okay.
37:36I like that.
37:48Blaine couldn't get Zoey out of his head.
37:53What could she possibly have needed to sell the necklace for?
37:57What was so important?
38:04You sneaking out?
38:05Dr. Blaine!
38:08Where are you going, little man?
38:09You can't tell Nurse Ramona.
38:13Where are you going, little man?
38:15I want to get my mommy a pet.
38:16Pet?
38:18Okay.
38:19Does she like animals?
38:21Not really, actually.
38:23It's just...
38:26I don't think I have much time left.
38:28And I wanted to have something,
38:32or at least someone,
38:34that could live longer than me.
38:39Well, you know what, Max?
38:41You're going to live a really long life.
38:44And your mom is so lucky to have a guy in her life like you that cares about her.
38:48You still haven't met her.
38:50You'd really like her.
38:52I am sure that I would.
38:54You know what?
38:56I got a little time to kill,
38:58and I know a really cool pet store right around the corner.
39:00Want to go check it out?
39:02Show your mom how thoughtful you are?
39:03Yeah.
39:04Alright, follow me.
39:09Okay.
39:17Hi, Lucy.
39:18Max will be receiving experimental treatment for the next few weeks.
39:22But my boss called and he gave me a Scottsdale for work.
39:27Is there any chance that you could handle visiting Max for me just while I'm gone?
39:31Of course, Zoe. We'll take care of him, of course.
39:35Okay.
39:36Need a little water?
39:37Yeah, why don't you come sit for a little bit?
39:39No, I need to spend as much time with Max before I go.
39:42Oh, to tell that haughty doctor I haven't forgotten about him.
39:46Unless you've gotten to him yet again.
39:49Zoe knew she was being paranoid.
39:52How could Ziva possibly know what happened between her and Blaine?
39:56What did you say?
39:58What?
40:01That's exactly how Zoe felt, too.
40:05The ghost of her past.
40:07We've got to introduce this little guy to your mom, huh?
40:10Yeah.
40:11You excited?
40:12Yeah.
40:13Zoe, you look like you've seen a ghost.
40:16No, no, I'm fine.
40:18It's just venom.
40:21No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
40:23It hit Zoe how natural Blaine was with Max.
40:27How compatible they were.
40:29Maybe life didn't need to be so lonely.
40:34It was time to tell Blaine the truth.
40:40Will Zoe face off with her nemesis?
40:43What will Catherine do when she sees that both Zoe and Max are alive?
40:53And will Blaine ever find out that Max is his son?
40:57Will he be the donor match that could keep Max alive?
