Short filmTranscript
00:00My mother-in-law called me a gold digger because I fell in love with her son, who was a brain surgeon, and I was a homeless designer.
00:08She would never let us get married.
00:10But the day she found out I was pregnant, she tried to kill me and my unborn child.
00:17How did you even know I was pregnant?
00:19A woman always knows.
00:22Too bad I have to kill you, Zoe.
00:30Please!
00:31You're pathetic.
00:32You really think my son would give up his status as a surgeon to be with you?
00:35Mom!
00:38I trusted you.
00:42Don't bother calling for help. The maids already know where to dump your body.
00:53Wingard!
00:55Why didn't you pick up?
01:00Wingard!
01:11911, what's your emergency?
01:12That night, I died.
01:20Or at least, a part of me did.
01:24But that was only the beginning of a love story I never thought I'd live to tell.
01:31Because I wasn't the only one who survived.
01:34Thankfully, Max survived.
01:36Hey, Mom.
01:38But shortly after his birth, Max was diagnosed with leukemia.
01:43He'd been in and out of hospitals ever since.
01:49Hey, sweetie.
01:51We brought you both dinner.
01:53Oh, thanks, Mom.
01:55Thanks.
01:56How's Max?
01:57Yeah, he's good. Just sleeping. Needs to rest.
02:01What's wrong?
02:02He just keeps asking if he's ever gonna have a dad.
02:05Why don't you just tell the real father to show up?
02:09Whoever he is.
02:10But Catherine had threatened her son, Max, if anyone ever found out that he was Blaine's son.
02:15Why don't you take Zoe out with you to Honest Bar, as you're always going to?
02:21No, I don't need my older sister babysitting me.
02:26Well, thank you. I know you're just trying to help, but...
02:30I don't feel comfortable going around dating people when my son isn't here.
02:35When he's cured, I'll have more time.
02:37Zoe could never forget that face.
02:40It was Blaine Dexter, the father of Max.
02:44And somehow, he was now working in the same hospital where her son was being treated.
02:52Who is that?
02:53Hi.
02:54Excuse me. Who is that?
02:57Oh, that's doctor. Dr. Dexter, our new surgeon.
03:01Great, yeah. Is he single?
03:03Siva.
03:06Hey, I really appreciate you two for visiting. I'm just feeling...
03:09Oh, so tired.
03:11Can we go?
03:12Sure, sure, sure.
03:15Zoe couldn't believe that out of all the hospitals in the city, this is the one Blaine worked at.
03:21She knew she had to protect herself and Max.
03:24It was for Max's own good.
03:26But how long could she avoid Blaine before he finds her out?
03:31Zoe had always said she'd find love when Max was cured.
03:35But she was starting to worry.
03:36What if that day never came?
03:39Hello?
03:41Hello?
03:43Earth to Zoe.
03:45Sorry, I'm so out of it.
03:46Well, you better focus, girly. I hear there's a big new project coming down the pipeline.
03:51But you didn't hear that from me.
03:52Seriously?
03:53Mm-hmm. Big hot shot with tons to spend.
03:57I really hope Talon finally gives me a chance. I really need that commission.
04:02Max's hospital bills.
04:09Talon Tailor Designs.
04:11Courtney speaking.
04:13Zoe?
04:15It's for you. Your sister's in the hospital.
04:17What?
04:19Hello?
04:22Yes, yes, of course. I'll be right there.
04:26My sister injured herself last night trying to get the attention of some guy.
04:30Shocker.
04:32Cover for me?
04:33Always.
04:34It seems like no matter what, Zoe just can't seem to escape the hospital.
04:39Eva? What happened?
04:40Did Linda call you?
04:42Yeah, she said you were throwing yourself at some guy.
04:45Was not. I was dancing and I tripped. Besides, now the hot surgeon can save my life.
04:52Are you even injured?
04:54Maybe. Maybe not. Let's let the doctor decide that.
04:58Eva, you can't just waste this doctor's time. What is wrong with you?
05:01Todd, I knew you were going to be a buzzkill about this.
05:03Okay, you know what? Get up. We're going home.
05:06Hi, Miss Fuller. Sorry to keep you waiting.
05:08Your brain scans came back.
05:10I'm sorry. I didn't realize you had a guest. I can come back.
05:13No, no, no. Come on in. I was just going to ask for you.
05:17Perfect. Look, I don't see any cause for concern on your scans, so I think we can release you.
05:24What? No. I mean, I'm telling you there's something wrong. I don't feel right.
05:31There must be other tests you can do, right?
05:35Let's take a look.
05:36Hold this light with your eyes.
05:43It was him. The man Zoe had loved all those years ago.
05:47And the same one who happens to be the father of her sick child.
05:53Okay.
05:55Look, Ziva, I can usually tell the difference between a patient who is actually sick and one who isn't.
06:02What do you mean, doctor?
06:03Would your friend here be able to drive you home?
06:05Home? My head feels awful, doctor. I think I need to stay for another night or two.
06:11Ziva, I kind of need to focus on the patients who really need me.
06:15Maybe you're just dehydrated, you know, from your wild night.
06:19You know what? Maybe you're right.
06:21Zoe, can you bring me some water?
06:24Zoe?
06:26Oh, God.
06:28I know.
06:31Okay. I gotcha.
06:34It's really not that bad.
06:36No, no, no.
06:38I'm sorry.
06:40I'm sorry.
06:42I'm sorry.
06:44I'm sorry.
06:46I'm sorry.
06:48I'm sorry.
06:50I'm sorry.
06:52I'm sorry.
06:53It's really not that bad.
06:55No, no.
06:58Zoe forgot how magnetic Blaine's touch had always been.
07:02How he could ignite so much inside her simply through his hands.
07:12You can let go of my hand now, Zoe.
07:15Oh, yeah. Sorry.
07:16Sorry.
07:19Um, okay, well, Ziva, I think we'll have you transferred to another unit.
07:25Another unit? No, I don't want another doctor. I want you.
07:29I need to focus on the patients who actually need me, okay?
07:32And, Ziva, word to the wise, even if I wasn't engaged, your little trick wouldn't have worked.
07:38I don't condone being with a woman who abuses my trust.
07:46Zoe kicked herself for having false hope.
07:49Of course Blaine had moved on.
07:51Why can't you let me have anything for myself?
07:54You're not supposed to be here, Ziva.
07:56What did you deal with him anyways? Why was he so cold to you?
08:00Zoe didn't know how to tell Ziva about her complicated history with Blaine.
08:04That he was the man that fathered Max.
08:07But now was not the time or place.
08:12I don't know.
08:13Okay, well, if you're just gonna suck up my attention, then you can leave.
08:20Bye.
08:22Bye.
08:26Hello?
08:28Zoe, hey, it's Talon. Are you still at the hospital?
08:31Courtney mentioned you had a family emergency. Is everything alright with Max?
08:34Yeah. Yeah, actually, it wasn't Max this time. It was my sister.
08:40But don't worry. I can be back at the office later.
08:44No, no, no. It's fine, Zoe. You work enough as it is.
08:47But I am emailing you right now a proposal for a new client.
08:55Big budget, big everything. Think you can handle it?
08:59Me? Seriously?
09:01Seriously. Seriously. He wants to meet tonight at 6pm at Waterford International's restaurant.
09:09Yeah, I'll be there.
09:14Finally, some good news.
09:22Things were finally looking up for Zoe at work.
09:30But she had no idea this dinner would be a brush with fate.
09:35A reservation under the name Fuller?
09:37No, no, no, no, no, no. You've got to be kidding me.
09:41No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
09:44Please don't see me. Please don't see me. Please don't see me.
09:52Talon Interiors, this is Zoe speaking.
09:55Are you joining me for dinner or not?
09:58Uh...
10:04You are my new client?
10:09And you are my new interior designer.
10:12I can call my boss and have him put somebody else on the project, given our history.
10:19That might be best.
10:21Don't be silly.
10:23We can be adults.
10:24Don't be silly.
10:26We can be adults, right?
10:28Besides, I know how talented you are.
10:35Okay, well then, let's just dive right in, huh?
10:39Thought it might be a good idea to start getting your input with what you envision for your home.
10:44Toning on the mood.
10:46Going for your space.
10:50Let's eat first.
10:55Whatever you say.
10:58Boss?
11:00Were you always this testy?
11:04Always.
11:06Neither could deny it.
11:08The chemistry between them was electric.
11:11I thought that the wood made a nice contrast with the lighter colors.
11:15I really like the wood textures here.
11:17You're definitely on to something.
11:19I thought the textures were really interesting.
11:21Yeah.
11:25Okay.
11:30Oh.
11:32I'm sorry if I'm overloading you.
11:35We definitely don't have to figure out everything tonight.
11:37No, it's not that.
11:40What is it?
11:44Why didn't you ever call, Zoe?
11:47Excuse me?
11:49Why did you leave?
11:51So suddenly, I mean, I had no idea where you went.
11:54How could she tell him the truth?
11:56What his own mother had done to her?
12:01I...
12:03She had to protect herself and Max.
12:05She couldn't get wrapped up in the Dexters again.
12:11I'm so sorry.
12:14Hello?
12:16Yes, of course.
12:17Have her prep for surgery, I'll be right there.
12:20Is everything okay?
12:22It will be.
12:25I guess we'll have to continue this conversation further at another time.
12:36As Zoe watched Blaine leave,
12:38she wished she could have explained everything to him in that moment.
12:42But she couldn't put Max at risk.
12:44Besides,
12:45patients needed his healing hands.
12:47She remembered when they healed her
12:49from her own terrible accident
12:51all those years ago.
12:53Oh, I'm not...
12:55I'm sorry.
12:57I can come back.
12:59It's okay.
13:01I'm kind of struggling with these...
13:06Do you mind if I help?
13:12What's your name?
13:13Zoe.
13:15Hi, Zoe.
13:17I'm Dr. Dexter.
13:19You can call me Blaine.
13:21As Blaine fastened Zoe's gowns,
13:24a shiver ran down her spine.
13:26How's that feel?
13:28Yeah.
13:30Good, I guess.
13:34How's that?
13:36How's that?
13:43It's perfect.
13:45Blaine could feel something between Zoe and him.
13:48But he had to maintain professionalism.
13:56Oh!
13:58Are you okay?
14:00Yeah, sorry.
14:02You seem nervous.
14:03No, it's just probably the accident.
14:06Yeah.
14:08I think as a precaution,
14:10we should have you stay here another day.
14:12Will you be my doctor?
14:14Yeah.
14:16You don't like me?
14:18No, it's not that.
14:20I just don't want to
14:22take you away from other patients
14:24that might need you more than me.
14:26Well, something tells me
14:28that you need mine.
14:30Little did he know,
14:31his friend would get him pregnant
14:33only ten months later.
14:44Blaine was engaged.
14:46Why was he paying for dinner?
14:48And offering his private number?
14:50What could he want from her?
14:53I can't believe we lost him.
14:55I really thought he'd pull through.
15:02You seem distracted.
15:05Oh, hey.
15:07Sorry about that.
15:09Yeah, I wish we could have saved him too.
15:12You know, for a moment there,
15:14I thought I saw light on in you, Blaine.
15:16Thinking about your fiance?
15:18Nope.
15:20Just distracted.
15:22Who are you thinking about?
15:24Don't be ridiculous.
15:32I'm sorry.
15:34I was just playing
15:36and my ball got away.
15:38Are you a doctor?
15:40I am.
15:42You look strong.
15:44Like a superhero.
15:46What's your name, kid?
15:48I'm Max.
15:50What's your name?
15:52I'm Dr. Blaine Dexter.
15:54You can call me Dr. Blaine.
15:56Oh, you're the brain surgeon
15:58with the penthouse downtown.
15:59And your family's loaded.
16:01You live in Moorpark, don't you?
16:04Are you a detective?
16:06Oh, the nurses want to marry you.
16:08Are you single?
16:10Actually, I have a fiance.
16:14What's wrong with having a fiance?
16:16It's just,
16:18if you were single,
16:20I would have introduced you to my mom.
16:22My grandma always says
16:24she needs a good man to take care of her.
16:26And you look like a good man.
16:27Are you her matchmaker?
16:29She used to be married,
16:31but now they don't live together anymore.
16:33I'm sorry to hear that.
16:35So if I fall asleep one day
16:37and never wake up again,
16:39she'd be all alone.
16:41Well, then let's just hope that doesn't happen.
16:43Okay?
16:45Who is your mom anyways?
16:47Max, I've been looking for you everywhere.
16:49Let's get you to your room, okay?
16:51Let's go.
16:53What's wrong with the little guy?
16:55Leukemia.
16:57He's been tested,
16:59but we haven't found a match
17:01for a bone marrow transplant yet.
17:03Bye, Dr. Blaine.
17:05Blaine felt his heart ache
17:07at Ramona's answer.
17:09He knew how difficult it was
17:11to find that kind of donor.
17:13Max!
17:15There you are.
17:17Where'd you go?
17:19You have to stay in your room,
17:21you little troublemaker.
17:23Well, he struck up a friendship
17:25with the hot surgeon, Dr. Dexter.
17:27Hey, Max, sweetie, go in.
17:29I'll be right there.
17:31Ramona,
17:33Dr. Dexter cannot know who Max is.
17:36He can't know his last name,
17:38he can't know that he's related to me, okay?
17:40Do you understand?
17:42Zoe, what's going on?
17:44Please, just promise me.
17:46I promise you.
17:48Okay.
17:52Zoe couldn't tell her
17:54that Blaine's mother attempted
17:55to orphan Max's four years ago.
17:57But she had to keep Max safe.
18:00And keeping the truth from Blaine
18:02was the only way.
18:04But would she be able
18:06to keep them apart forever?
18:08Only time would tell.
18:20Hi.
18:22I have no need to sit.
18:23Just wanted to check up
18:25on where you're at with Blaine Dexter.
18:27Okay.
18:29Dinner was great.
18:31He had to leave early on a hospital call, though,
18:33so now we're currently...
18:35Moving forward,
18:37as they should be.
18:39Right, Zoe?
18:41We cannot mess this deal up.
18:43Understood?
18:45Yes.
18:47I am on it, boss.
18:49That's what I like to hear.
18:51Mm-hmm.
18:53Okay.
19:07Hello?
19:09Hi, it's me.
19:11Zoe.
19:13Zoe Fuller?
19:15This was impossible.
19:17How could Zoe be expected to work for him?
19:19Given their history.
19:21Given...
19:24Given...
19:27Look, I know you may not want to work with me,
19:29but you're a very important client to us,
19:31and I would like to see this deal through,
19:33so I would appreciate if you could...
19:35Why don't we meet at my place?
19:37Tonight.
19:39At, say, six.
19:41At your place?
19:43Well, yeah, you need to see my furniture, don't you?
19:45Right.
19:47Of course.
19:49Is that okay with you?
19:51Mm-hmm.
19:53In case I'm not there yet, it's my fiancee's,
19:55but you can use it.
19:57I'll send you the address.
19:59Great. I will see you...
20:04Tonight.
20:06Zoe had almost forgotten Blaine was engaged.
20:08She knew she had to be strong.
20:10She had to move past her fears.
20:12You got this.
20:14But she had no idea
20:16that her darkest fears
20:18just might come true.
20:20Dr. Blaine Dexter, please.
20:21It's his mother.
20:23I need to speak to him immediately.
20:26Of course, this is his house.
20:30Suddenly, Zoe was dizzy.
20:32What was she doing?
20:34How could she meet with Blaine alone,
20:36after what Blaine's mother had done to her?
20:40She cursed herself for forgetting to eat today.
20:43Her mother was right.
20:45She wasn't taking care of herself.
20:48You again.
20:49I thought I got rid of you the first time.
20:51Catherine, please leave me alone.
20:53I'm just trying to provide for my son.
20:55You mean your illegitimate baby
20:57that you had with my son?
21:00Did you really think
21:02you could weasel your way back in?
21:07I will kill you.
21:10Make no mistake.
21:12If you try to get close to Blaine,
21:14I will end your life.
21:15But suddenly,
21:17in her hallucination,
21:19Zoe thought of Max
21:21and the life she wanted to provide for him.
21:24Screw you, Catherine.
21:26Zoe decided right then and there
21:28she wasn't going to let the Dexter family
21:30dictate her life.
21:32You can't scare me anymore.
21:34I'll show you who Zoe Fuller really is.
21:36But what did Zoe just walk into?
21:38Will Blaine stay with his fiancée?
21:40Or will he leave her?
21:42I don't know.
21:43Will Blaine stay with his fiancée
21:45despite his growing feelings?
21:47And when will Zoe run into
21:49her attempted murderer, Catherine Dexter, again?
21:52Wow.
21:54So this is where Blaine lives.
21:56Be professional, Zoe.
21:58He's moved on.
22:00Have you been waiting long?
22:04Blaine, your house is
22:06amazing.
22:08Why do you need an interior designer?
22:10For our new home.
22:11Me and my...
22:13fiancée.
22:15This doesn't have to be weird.
22:17We're both adults, right?
22:19I know you've moved on.
22:21And I have too.
22:24Is that why you were so jealous
22:26of sister being treated by me?
22:29I wasn't jealous.
22:31You know, she reminds me of a younger you.
22:34Impulsive.
22:37Flirty.
22:41Dangerous.
22:46Or is that still you?
22:50Aren't you engaged, Blaine?
22:53Good point.
22:56We're here for business.
23:01But I'm starving.
23:06So let's eat first.
23:11No.
23:21Our second date.
23:23I'm serious, Blaine.
23:25You need to stay professional.
23:27I already told you.
23:29I'm engaged.
23:31And you are...
23:33single?
23:35I'm married.
23:37But Zoe was lying.
23:39She used to be married.
23:41Good for you.
23:47You can leave those.
23:48We're waiting on another person.
23:55Who are we waiting for?
23:57Who do you think?
23:59Blainey.
24:00Sophia Quincy.
24:02Everyone knew Sophia Quincy.
24:04The heiress to the Quincy Corporation,
24:06an aerospace conglomerate.
24:08This was the kind of woman
24:09Catherine Dexter wanted Blaine to be with.
24:11It all made sense.
24:13Sophia, lovely to meet you, Chloe.
24:15Look at us.
24:17We're like kids.
24:19Let's talk interior design.
24:21Yes, yes.
24:24I have some lock-ups together
24:26if you wanted to take a look.
24:32Zoe couldn't deny how nice Sophia was.
24:35Gorgeous, rich, and kind.
24:40How could Zoe possibly compete with that?
24:49I'm so sorry.
24:51I actually have to go.
24:53Can't it wait?
24:55No.
24:56No, it's my son.
24:57He needs me.
24:58Oh, you have a son?
25:00I'm so sorry.
25:01It's my son.
25:02He needs me.
25:03Oh, you have a son?
25:05How darling.
25:07Blainey and I cannot wait to have kids.
25:10Right, sweetie?
25:11Yes, I came to grab you.
25:12Oh, um, sorry.
25:14He's, uh, Miss Quincy.
25:15I will be in touch with you.
25:17Dr. Dexter.
25:18Good to see you.
25:20Good to see you.
25:22Do you know her?
25:23Hardly.
25:24Little did Blaine know,
25:26he already had a child.
25:31She bought this?
25:34Zoe?
25:35But Zoe could never let him find that out.
25:38Oh my god.
25:39That's the Heart of the Sea necklace.
25:42It was the priceless necklace Blaine had given Zoe years ago.
25:47He couldn't believe that she still had it,
25:50after all this time.
25:52Could that mean she still held a torch for him?
25:55Like he did for her?
25:57Why would a low-level interior designer have something this expensive?
26:01She's not low-level.
26:07I need to use the restroom.
26:14But Sophia wasn't convinced.
26:20It's me.
26:22Look, I need some information on someone.
26:24An interior designer by the name of Zoe Fuller.
26:37Hey, what's going on?
26:38Where's Max?
26:39He had an episode.
26:40They stabilized him.
26:41He's fine.
26:42You can visit him soon.
26:44But they want to run a lot more tests.
26:47Tests? What?
26:49What kind of tests?
26:51The expensive kind.
26:52Money was tight.
26:54But Zoe knew she had a fallback option.
26:56I'm sorry, Zoe.
26:58I know money's tight for you right now and just...
27:02Zoe.
27:06Zoe, are you okay?
27:07Zoe.
27:08The only hope Zoe had of paying for Max's treatment was gone.
27:15Blaine.
27:19So what's on your mind?
27:21So what's a married woman doing on my doorstep in the middle of the night?
27:25Look, I'm just gonna cut to the chase, okay?
27:28Do you have my necklace?
27:29Don't you mean my necklace?
27:31Since I'm the one who gave it to you.
27:32Blaine, please.
27:34Not now. I just, I need...
27:35I need that necklace.
27:36For what?
27:38For remembering the guy you left behind all those years ago?
27:42For no reason?
27:44That's not...
27:45You broke my heart, Zoe.
27:51I'm sorry.
27:54Blaine could never know the truth.
27:57That she was forced to leave.
27:59Forced for her own safety.
28:01I can't do this. Forget it.
28:03Wait.
28:07What?
28:09Turn around.
28:13Turn around.
28:15Could he tell how badly she wanted him?
28:20No.
28:38Don't lose it again.
28:42More confused than ever,
28:44Zoe had what she needed to pay for Max's treatments.
28:48But given the history,
28:50could she really sell it?
28:52I came as soon as I heard.
28:57This is Matthew.
28:59The man she married.
29:01And the heart she had broken.
29:04All because she could never stop thinking about her first true love,
29:08Blaine Dexter.
29:18What am I supposed to do?
29:20We will get through this.
29:22Alright?
29:23Together.
29:27Why couldn't Blaine stop thinking about Zoe?
29:32It was driving him crazy.
29:36Come to bed.
29:38It's been so long since we...
29:40I can't.
29:42The hospital needs me.
29:44Yeah.
29:49It wasn't just the hospital that needed Blaine.
29:52Blaine might be Max's only hope.
29:55But could Zoe tell Blaine the truth?
29:57They said the chemo would work and it's not working.
29:59Look, this can happen with chemo.
30:02Patients can build up a tolerance to it,
30:04then it loses efficacy.
30:07Zoe, I looked over Max's chart.
30:10He has chronic toxic hepatitis.
30:13Now, there are ways of treating this, but...
30:16Let me guess, it's really expensive.
30:19The bills just keep racking up.
30:21I'm never gonna get out of it.
30:23And in that moment, Zoe knew what she needed to do.
30:27Matthew,
30:29I know we're not married anymore, but...
30:32I can't give you any more money, Zoe. I'm sorry.
30:35It's not that. It's just...
30:37Could you watch Max tonight?
30:40I have something that I need to do.
30:43Of course.
30:48And tell me...
30:50The patient is in triage.
30:52Okay, thanks.
30:59That's the husband, huh?
31:04What does he have that I don't?
31:13I don't know.
31:37Long night, Dr. Dexter.
31:39You were incredible in surgery.
31:41Thanks, Verona.
31:43I gotta get some sleep.
31:45Page me if anything comes in, okay?
31:56Sorry.
31:58Good thing your coffee was cold.
32:05You in a hurry to see your husband, Zoe?
32:07Yeah.
32:12Even though Zoe hated lying to Blaine,
32:15she couldn't risk him knowing that she was there for Max.
32:18He couldn't know about him.
32:20Why else would I be here?
32:22Good.
32:24Go on.
32:28See you around.
32:34Wait.
32:38I'm sorry. I just...
32:44It's really hard for me to see you with someone else.
32:56Do you need to change out of that shirt?
33:03Probably.
33:08Here.
33:19Here's your shirt.
33:24Alright, well, turn around.
33:28I've seen you naked before.
33:30Yeah, well, that was a very different time, wasn't it?
33:38Come on.
33:44She was driving him wild.
33:47How could he possibly stand this?
33:53You haven't changed a bit.
33:59It was really happening.
34:01They were about to give in to their desires,
34:04after being apart for so long.
34:05Zoe couldn't believe it.
34:18It's your wife.
34:20She wants to see me.
34:22She's not my wife yet.
34:24Blaine, we can't do this. This is too messy. I mean, you're engaged and...
34:27And you're married.
34:35Right.
34:37Unless...
34:40There's something that you're not telling me.
34:47Where's your necklace?
34:52Where's your necklace, Zoe?
34:57I...
35:01Zoe, where's your necklace?
35:06I had to sell it.
35:08You sold it?
35:10Why?
35:12I...
35:14Why would you sell it?
35:16Why?
35:18I can't tell you.
35:21So that's what I meant to you.
35:23No.
35:25I guess that settles where we stand.
35:27Dr. Dexter.
35:29Yeah, yes.
35:31Sorry, but we need you in surgery. We've got a complicated case.
35:33Yeah, I'll be right there.
35:35I hope you got what you needed.
35:49Hi.
35:51I'm so sorry I'm late. I got held up at work.
35:55At work?
35:57Huh.
35:59It's so funny. I called your office and they said that you weren't there.
36:02That you spend a lot of time at the hospital.
36:06Yes.
36:08I have family there.
36:10How convenient.
36:14So are we going to go over designs or not?
36:17Of course.
36:19Of course.
36:21So, I was thinking that we could draw some inspiration from...
36:30Oh, my necklace.
36:32I found it at a pawn shop.
36:35It's so funny.
36:37The kinds of things that you can find in most surprising places.
36:44It definitely suits you.
36:47I know. It does.
36:50Oh, and Zoe.
36:53I don't like people envying my things, so...
36:57Keep your eyes on your own, Jewelry.
37:03Understood.
37:05Understood.
37:09Miss Quincy.
37:12Did Sophia know what was happening between Zoe and Blaine?
37:16She know that Zoe sold the necklace to a pawn shop.
37:19And was she trying to take revenge?
37:33Hi, baby.
37:36Sophia.
37:39Listen, I think we need...
37:43What's wrong?
37:45That necklace. Where did you get that necklace?
37:47I bought it at a pawn shop.
37:50A pawn shop?
37:52Clearly, whoever sold it didn't care about it.
37:54Take it off.
37:56Now.
37:58Why?
38:00Tell me.
38:03I know it was hers, Blaine.
38:08You know nothing.
38:10I know she sold it.
38:12And that says a lot.
38:14If it helps.
38:16Apparently, she needed the money.
38:18Badly.
38:20She did?
38:22So forget about the poor, pathetic interior designer.
38:28And start thinking about the future.
38:33Your wedding.
38:35To me.
38:39The hospital needs you.
38:41Of course.
38:43Don't tell me. Just go.
38:45Blaine knew that no matter how hard Sophia tried, she would compare to Zoe.
38:58Zoe.
39:00Just the gal I wanted to see.
39:02Since you are taking on big accounts now, I'm sending you to Scottsdale for a couple days.
39:09Huge opportunity there with a new client.
39:12I need you to close the deal.
39:14Talon, that is so great.
39:16But I...
39:18But, Zoe.
39:20This is what you wanted, isn't it?
39:25Yes.
39:27Of course.
39:31I like that.
39:44Blaine couldn't get Zoe out of his head.
39:49What could she possibly have needed to sell the necklace for?
39:53What was so important?
40:00You sneaking out?
40:02Dr. Blaine!
40:04Where are you going, little man?
40:06You can't tell Mr. Mona.
40:09Where are you going, little man?
40:12I want to get my mommy a pet.
40:14Pet? Okay.
40:16Does she like animals?
40:18Not really, actually.
40:20It's just...
40:23I don't think I have much time left.
40:25And...
40:27I wanted to have something...
40:29Or at least someone...
40:31I could love longer than me.
40:35Well, you know what, Max?
40:37You're gonna live a really long life.
40:40And your mom is so lucky to have a guy in her life like you that cares about her.
40:44You still haven't met her.
40:46You'd really like her.
40:48I am sure that I would.
40:50You know what?
40:51You know what?
40:53I got a little time to kill, and I know a really cool pet store right around the corner.
40:57Wanna go check it out?
40:59Show your mom how thoughtful you are?
41:01Alright, follow me.
41:13Hi, Lucy.
41:15Max will be receiving experimental treatment for the next few weeks.
41:18But my boss called, and they gave me and Scott's deal.
41:22For work.
41:24Is there any chance that you could handle visiting Max for me just while I'm gone?
41:27Of course, Zoe. We'll take care of him, of course.
41:32Suddenly, the day caught up to Zoe.
41:34The encounter with Blaine.
41:36The confrontation with Sophia.
41:41Okay.
41:43Need a little water? Why don't you come sit for a little bit?
41:45No, I need to spend as much time with Max before I go.
41:49Oh, to tell that haughty doctor I haven't forgotten about him.
41:53Unless you've gotten to him yet again.
41:56Zoe knew she was being paranoid.
41:59How could Ziva possibly know what happened between her and Blaine?
42:03What did you say?
42:05What?
42:07That's exactly how Zoe felt too.
42:11The ghost of her past.
42:13We've got to introduce this little guy to your mom, huh?
42:16You excited?
42:18Yeah.
42:20Zoe, you look like you've seen a ghost.
42:23No, no, I'm fine.
42:25It's just venom.
42:28No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
42:30It hit Zoe.
42:32How natural Blaine was with Max.
42:34How compatible they were.
42:36Maybe life didn't need to be so lonely.
42:40It was time to tell Blaine the truth.
42:44Will Zoe face off with her nemesis?
42:49What will Catherine do when she sees that both Zoe and Max are alive?
42:59And will Blaine ever find out that Max is his son?
43:03Will he be the donor match that could keep Max alive?
