00:00:00Coming! You were invited to a meeting by the Blackthorn's lawyers.
00:00:08In the event of my death, all wealth belonging to me will only be inherited by one of my sons,
00:00:13under the condition that he marries a woman of humble background within six months.
00:00:17You mean you agreed to sell me like a cheap pimp?
00:00:23You look me in the eye and you tell me that you are fulfilled with everything that you have.
00:00:27You must, with all importance, marry me.
00:00:29And everything you don't have.
00:00:31I don't see the both of us getting married to her.
00:00:33And that you never had a thought that your life would be much easier if you had me.
00:00:39What are you doing here? Are you stalking me?
00:00:42You're burning for Elizabeth.
00:00:44I'm not kissing you.
00:00:47Don't tell me you're fucking me.
00:00:50Oh, you haven't imagined me falling in love with you, have you?
00:00:53Fuck off!
00:00:54What do you mean you're falling in love with me?
00:00:56What's the misunderstanding?
00:00:58What's the misunderstanding?
00:01:00Get off me!
00:01:01That son of a bitch, I'm gonna fucking kill him!
00:01:05You're fucking lying to me.
00:01:07I was picked up at school.
00:01:09No!
00:01:10I'm being fucking serious.
00:01:11What do you want? Why are you doing this?
00:01:13Hello, Johnny Boy.
00:01:26Can you just get to the point? I'm missing an important meeting.
00:01:29I understand, but I can't commence the meeting at your father's will without your brother's permission.
00:01:37What the actual fuck? It's noon and you're drunk already.
00:01:41Hello, Frankie.
00:01:43Johnny Boy.
00:01:47Let's get this out of the way, shall we?
00:01:49Your father's last will and testament, read before his two sons as stipulated.
00:01:54In the event of my death, all wealth belonging to me, including cash, properties, shares and stocks,
00:01:59will only be inherited by one of my sons.
00:02:03Under the condition that he marries a woman of humble background within six months.
00:02:08That's bullshit!
00:02:10We don't know it.
00:02:11We don't know it.
00:02:12We don't know it.
00:02:13We don't know it.
00:02:14We don't know it.
00:02:15We don't know it.
00:02:16We don't know it.
00:02:17We don't know it.
00:02:18We don't know it.
00:02:19This is your father's updated will. He was of sound mind when it was revised.
00:02:23Revised?
00:02:25When?
00:02:26A few weeks before his death.
00:02:27I assure you, these are his true wishes.
00:02:29If you'll please get seated, son.
00:02:31Fuck off, you fucking son.
00:02:33Take your fucking seat, Jack.
00:02:35It seems there's more we need to hear.
00:02:38That woman has already been chosen by me.
00:02:40Evangeline Harris.
00:02:42She's the daughter of Anna Harris, the woman who nursed and cared for me when I was ill.
00:02:46By all accounts, she's a good, decent woman.
00:02:48I realize that this stipulation might seem unusual, but...
00:02:51to my disappointment, you have both grown overly arrogant and dismissive of those you consider to be inferior to you in both social standing and in wealth.
00:02:58My hope is that it will teach you to sustain a healthy relationship regardless of class or status.
00:03:02I pray that everything gets resolved with fairness, love, and kindness.
00:03:12This makes no sense at all.
00:03:15Marrying a stranger?
00:03:17How do we even get in touch with this woman?
00:03:19Evangeline...
00:03:20Evangeline Harris.
00:03:21Your father has included contact details for both her and her mother, so getting in touch with her won't be an issue.
00:03:27You seem a little bit composed, brother.
00:03:29Something you'd like to tell me?
00:03:31I beg your pardon?
00:03:32You seem a little calm the whole way.
00:03:34A little too well.
00:03:35It's almost like as if you already knew what was happening.
00:03:38Please tell me that's a joke.
00:03:40I'm concerned about how to get up to the bottom of this, and you're concerned that I'm just not falling apart.
00:03:45You were here before me. God knows for how long.
00:03:48Yeah, because I understand punctuality.
00:03:51Unlike you.
00:03:53You chose to be late, as usual.
00:03:56Must not forget that you're daddy's little favorite, eh?
00:03:58Who knows what else he gave you, a little hint at the will?
00:04:02For fuck's sake, Jack.
00:04:03Don't start this shit now.
00:04:05We need to be working together, not taking stabs at each other.
00:04:11What do you say, dearest brother?
00:04:13What we all know is the truth, and that voice will come out in the end.
00:04:17Come on, Jack. Don't be such a child.
00:04:20Dad would want us to work as a team, no matter what.
00:04:24The things that you really want, huh?
00:04:40Hey, this is the hundredth voicemail I've left you.
00:05:09Call me when you get this one.
00:05:15Tony Blay, how'd you get looking for me?
00:05:18Speak of the devil.
00:05:20Where the fuck have you been?
00:05:22I've been trying to contact you for days.
00:05:24I've been here, there, you know.
00:05:26No, I don't know.
00:05:28And can you stop playing with that?
00:05:30You always make a mess of things.
00:05:32I'm always trying to control things.
00:05:34Maybe you should understand how things really work.
00:05:36What are you talking about?
00:05:38Are you drunk right now? Because you're not making much sense.
00:05:40Nope. Servers are none.
00:05:42Enough of the cryptic talk.
00:05:44And why are you so late to work if you're not on one of your vendors?
00:05:47John, John, you're always focusing on the things that aren't important.
00:05:51Why don't you just give it a little?
00:05:53The things that aren't important.
00:05:55Did you realize that this company didn't die along with Dad?
00:05:57We actually have to keep it alive.
00:05:59Well, luckily we have you, then.
00:06:01Hey, that shit best be on it.
00:06:03I better be going. We can do this chat another time.
00:06:05Where the fuck are you off to now?
00:06:07I don't know.
00:06:14You pulled a quick one on me, didn't you?
00:06:16To think that I was worried about you,
00:06:18only to find out you had been in contact with Evangeline Harris.
00:06:21Damn, bro, did you run here?
00:06:23Hey, easy, tiger.
00:06:26What can I say? I'll work better alone.
00:06:29Besides, this situation is a best man wins.
00:06:32I don't see the both of us getting married to her.
00:06:34Welcome.
00:06:37Jackass, you're here early this time.
00:06:39This won't be very worth the time.
00:06:41Heads up to my brother, didn't ya?
00:06:43Actually, I was obligated to share this information with the both of you at the same time.
00:06:47Thank you for informing me, Mr. Frank.
00:06:49God knows if it were up to Jack, I'd still be up at the office.
00:06:52This shouldn't be very worth the time.
00:06:54Shut up, jackass.
00:07:01Ms. Harris won't be coming to the meeting.
00:07:03And we all know what that means.
00:07:05Without her, nothing can move forward.
00:07:08Damn it.
00:07:11Two weeks later
00:07:34Coming!
00:07:40Mum!
00:07:42What are you doing here?
00:07:44I had no idea you were stopping by.
00:07:45Emma, you look a mess.
00:07:46How many times have I told you, your appearance matters all the time.
00:07:55I'm doing housework, Mum.
00:07:56Am I supposed to have a full face of makeup on?
00:07:58Oh, well, I really don't know why you have to live in such a little shabby place.
00:08:02Surely you can find somewhere better.
00:08:04Your standards are so high.
00:08:06It's not like I can afford a mansion on the same salary.
00:08:09And besides, I like it here. It's nice and it's cosy.
00:08:12Well, that's why life presents you with opportunities,
00:08:16and you've got to grab them when they're presented to you.
00:08:19I guess.
00:08:20I believe you were invited to a meeting by the Blackthorne Sawyers.
00:08:25Yeah.
00:08:26How did you know about that?
00:08:27Oh, never mind. Why didn't you go?
00:08:29Because it seemed shady.
00:08:31I've never spoken to that man before.
00:08:33And I only know the name Blackthorne because he worked for the late Mr. Blackthorne.
00:08:38What on earth do they want with me?
00:08:40And you just dodged my question.
00:08:42How do you know about that meeting?
00:08:43Because I set it up.
00:08:51What do you mean you set it up?
00:08:53What business do you still have with our family after your patients?
00:08:56What's going on, Mum?
00:08:57Calm down, child. Let me explain.
00:08:59You see, when Mr. Blackthorne neared his end,
00:09:03he kind of started opening up to me and talking about his life,
00:09:07about his late wife, his two sons Jack and John, for example, twins.
00:09:12And you see, he even asked about my life.
00:09:14That's interesting, but that doesn't quite answer anything.
00:09:17But you see, when we got talking, we realized that we could possibly help each other.
00:09:21You see, he realized that his two sons had a bit of a, let's call it a classist issue.
00:09:27You mean they're pretentious rich boy freaks?
00:09:29That's not surprising, but what does that have to do with anything?
00:09:31Well, you see, he hoped for them to have a little bit more empathy and be a little bit less pretentious.
00:09:36And I said, my daughter actually has the opposite challenge.
00:09:40She's poor and humble and needed to step up socially.
00:09:43What? You told him that? About me?
00:09:46Parents talk about their kids.
00:09:48You see, I told him that you were fussy about, you know, the men you were dating, lacking in a bit of ambition.
00:09:53And, you know, Mr. Blackthorne was really alone at that time,
00:09:56and his two boys were always just too busy to visit him.
00:09:59He might have been a little muddled at that point, but anyway, we still came to an agreement.
00:10:04What sort of agreement, Mum?
00:10:06Well, he added in his will that one of his sons needed to marry you in order to inherit his wealth.
00:10:13You can't be serious. You're joking, right?
00:10:16No, wait. Let me finish. I am serious.
00:10:20You mean you agreed to sell me like a cheap pimp?
00:10:30You told that old man that I was a sad loser?
00:10:39That I would jump at the chance to marry one of his sons?
00:10:42So what if I don't have a man in my life with many friends?
00:10:45That's my choice! Mine!
00:10:47I don't give a damn what you think.
00:10:50You look me in the eye and you tell me that you are fulfilled with everything that you have,
00:10:54and everything you don't have,
00:10:56and that you never had a thought that your life would be much easier if you had more.
00:11:01If you had more money, more status, and more opportunities.
00:11:05Yeah, I thought as much.
00:11:08I only ever wanted what was good for you.
00:11:13All the things that I never had in my life growing up.
00:11:17The things I never achieved.
00:11:19So it really hurts me when you imply that I want to pimp you out.
00:11:27What would your son think about this crazy scheme?
00:11:31Well, you would have known that if you actually went to the meeting that you refused to go to.
00:11:35I'm sorry.
00:11:38That is, to marry a total stranger?
00:11:40A very wealthy stranger, really.
00:11:43Let's see it as something like speed matchmaking.
00:11:47It happens everywhere.
00:11:49They do it on TV reality shows, social media, dating apps.
00:11:53I'm not expulsing you to do anything that you don't want to do, but let's face it.
00:11:56You won't lose anything by trying at least.
00:11:59What happens if I don't like the guy and I don't want to go through with the marriage?
00:12:02Well, then the Blackthorn sons will just have to sort it out themselves and work through it.
00:12:06At that point, at least they've learned just a fraction of the humility that their dad wanted for them.
00:12:14Well, maybe I'll meet with the sons and see what it's like, but I can't guarantee anything further than that.
00:12:24Oh, the lies you're going to say.
00:12:36John Blackthorn?
00:12:38Yes.
00:12:40You must be Miss Harris.
00:12:42Evangeline is fine. Or Eva, if you like.
00:12:44Eva it is, then. I'm John.
00:12:47I hope it's not too forward of me to say this, but you look exceptionally beautiful.
00:12:57You literally just took my breath away right now. You're magnificent.
00:13:01I'm sorry about ghosting the meeting at your lawyer's.
00:13:05It just came from out of the blue.
00:13:07I had no idea why my mother's late lawyer's lawyer would want to meet with me so urgently.
00:13:12It just happened so fast and I didn't really have much time to think about it. I just said yes.
00:13:17So you're aware of the part of my father's will that relates to you?
00:13:22I had no idea. It's quite strange.
00:13:26It's been a bit overwhelming. Even for me. For us.
00:13:34Isn't there supposed to be two of you? You're a Chinese, but I'm supposed to meet with your father as well?
00:13:39You must be the all-important Miss Harris. Speak of the devil.
00:13:49Tell me something. How much are you really going to cost me?
00:13:54Then you must be Jack Blackthorn.
00:13:57Yes, you guys are playing good cop, bad cop.
00:13:59So he came earlier to butter me up with outrageous compliments, and then you swoop in for the attack.
00:14:04What are you insinuating that I'm saying?
00:14:07Am I interrupting something?
00:14:09Oh, don't tell me you've fallen for his boyhood routine.
00:14:13Clearly this is an exchange. You for our father's wealth. Don't play dumb.
00:14:18What the fuck is wrong with you? Don't talk to her like that. It's disgusting.
00:14:22Oh, come on. You can't come on such strong shit anyway.
00:14:26Don't act all innocent now that she's looking so beautiful.
00:14:30Is that what you think a woman is? That we're only valuable for the way we look?
00:14:35No wonder your father locked you out of his wealth.
00:14:38You're not only classist, but you're sexist as well.
00:14:40Watch your fucking mouth. You don't know anything about her.
00:14:43Or me.
00:14:44You think you're better than this, don't you?
00:14:46The fact that you're even here considering this proposal says a lot about you.
00:14:49You fucking bitch, how much does this cost?
00:14:51Use it to mop up your toxicity, bitch boy.
00:14:54I've got a hell of your offer.
00:15:05Van Julian, wait! Hold on a second.
00:15:11Nice one, Jack. Nice one.
00:15:14She's the spitfire, that one.
00:15:16Those curves. Never knew she'd be so hot.
00:15:19What the fuck is wrong with you? You made her change her mind.
00:15:22How hard is it to be polite, goddammit?
00:15:24My fault? Me fucking can't take a joke.
00:15:26Besides, she'll be back eventually.
00:15:29Are you sure about that? I don't think so.
00:15:32Are you sure about that? I don't think you saw how angry she was.
00:15:37Don't worry, Jack boy. I know women and I saw the fire in her today and she's burning for me.
00:15:43I think you're confusing your emotions.
00:15:45Nah. One way or another, I'll be holding that spark in my hands.
00:15:50Don't tell me now you're interested in her.
00:15:52You were talking down to her that entire time.
00:15:54You call it talking down? I call it flirting.
00:15:57Besides, who can see your sins in less than 20 minutes?
00:16:02I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:16:04There's no denying it.
00:16:06We can clearly see your heart thumping out of her shirt and I'm pretty sure I could make her heart thump a little bit more.
00:16:13Are you sure about that?
00:16:20I guess we'll find out.
00:16:27Okay.
00:16:48I can hear your phone ringing, Evangeline. Open the door.
00:16:53I'm coming.
00:16:58Ignoring your mother. That's such childish behavior.
00:17:03Hi, Mum. I didn't know it was you.
00:17:05The carbs, really.
00:17:06You need to watch your figure. But anyway, we'll talk about that later. I'm here for a different reason.
00:17:11What reason?
00:17:12Or must I spell it out for you?
00:17:14I'm here to speak to you about your meeting with the Black Thorns.
00:17:17I told you what happened.
00:17:19Please don't tell me you came all this way just to talk about it again.
00:17:22Did I teach you nothing about perseverance?
00:17:24Yeah, you have a chance to change your life and even find love along the way.
00:17:29And you want to throw it away just because of one small little comment?
00:17:33Seriously, what do you mean?
00:17:35Eva, I'm not asking you to reach out or even apologize to them.
00:17:38I'm asking you just to give them another try.
00:17:41I made a promise to Missy Blackthorn and I want to keep that.
00:17:44You speak like it's an obligation, but I know you didn't find anything.
00:17:47No.
00:17:48Don't.
00:17:53Don't.
00:17:59Donald Jack.
00:18:19You've got to be kidding me.
00:18:21John Blackthorn.
00:18:24What are you doing here?
00:18:25Are you stalking me?
00:18:27How did you know I work at this hotel?
00:18:29I'm sorry. I didn't mean to startle you.
00:18:31Well, that's exactly what you've done.
00:18:33You should never sneak up on a woman like that.
00:18:35My bad.
00:18:37I just wanted to talk to you and tell you how sorry I am about the other day.
00:18:41Oh, yeah.
00:18:43Sorry.
00:18:45About the other day.
00:18:46Oh, yeah.
00:18:48Sorry about what?
00:18:50For being a two-faced Mr. Nice Guy?
00:18:52Or for being dumb when your brother insulted me?
00:18:55Eva, I...
00:18:56That's Evangeline to you.
00:18:58Right.
00:18:59Evangeline.
00:19:01I swear to you I was never putting on an act at any time.
00:19:05I meant every word I said about how beautiful you are.
00:19:09I'm sorry I didn't defend you sooner.
00:19:12My brother can be difficult sometimes.
00:19:16I hope you can give me a chance to make it up to you.
00:19:20Well, that sounded better this time.
00:19:23You know that I was right.
00:19:24Look out!
00:19:32That was close.
00:19:34I really thought he was meant to knock me over.
00:19:35If you hadn't grabbed me, I'd be lying on the road by now.
00:19:37Are you sure you're okay? You're not hurt anywhere?
00:19:39It's fine. He just missed me.
00:19:41You saved me. You're my hero.
00:19:43No, no. It's nothing like that.
00:19:46I just happen to be looking at the road at the right time.
00:19:50You know, I've been trying to get in contact with you for the past few days.
00:19:55You're the one who's been blowing up my phone.
00:19:58How did you get my number?
00:20:01Well, I...
00:20:02When you weren't answering and I needed to get a hold of you,
00:20:05I called Mr. Frank, who then called...
00:20:08My mother. She loves to meddle.
00:20:11Can I give you a ride home?
00:20:13Yeah, I'd really appreciate that.
00:20:15Okay.
00:20:36Again, I'm sorry about what happened
00:20:39and how something that started so nicely ended up so messy.
00:20:43And I'm sorry that you almost got hit because of me.
00:20:46It's okay. I'm over it now.
00:20:48And that guy wasn't looking where he was going.
00:20:51Yeah, but I could have made sure you weren't.
00:20:56Sorry.
00:20:58No, it's okay.
00:21:05This is me, so...
00:21:08Would you like to come in for a drink?
00:21:10Yeah, that'd be great.
00:21:14Excuse me.
00:21:16This buckle's kind of stuck.
00:21:19Here, you just need to press it like this.
00:21:29Dammit, it's work. I need to take this.
00:21:32Okay.
00:21:33Um, thanks once again.
00:21:35I will never forget.
00:21:37How scared you were when you thought a dead frog
00:21:39would come back to life and haunt you.
00:21:41I swear it looked me straight in the eye
00:21:43before it took its last breath,
00:21:45probably memorising my face so it could have
00:21:47its afterlife vengeance attack.
00:21:49Wasn't it for a school project?
00:21:51You were so scared that you were sleeping all night
00:21:53with the lights on even up to midnight.
00:21:55It's funny now, but back then it was
00:21:57a very different matter, I can assure you.
00:22:00Yeah.
00:22:01Back then it was a very different matter,
00:22:03I can assure you.
00:22:05You know what?
00:22:07Mum was insidious about the whole thing.
00:22:09No, she wasn't. She believed me.
00:22:11Aw, well, come on, at least she just
00:22:13made you not feel terrible.
00:22:16That's probably true.
00:22:18But in my ten-year-old brain, mum believed
00:22:20in the ghosts of vindictive frogs.
00:22:23Yeah.
00:22:24She was something else.
00:22:27I really do miss her.
00:22:29Yeah, me too.
00:22:31And dad too, of course.
00:22:35Always look at this photo of the four of us,
00:22:37together.
00:22:42We used to have dinner as a weekly tradition.
00:22:44Why don't we do that anymore?
00:22:47I don't know, we just...
00:22:50I think things got sad after mum died,
00:22:52and we became busy, dad died, and...
00:22:55I think we just lost the feeling
00:22:57of what it's like to be a family again.
00:23:00Well, why don't we change that?
00:23:06Well, that's my appetite.
00:23:08I'll leave you to it, Johnny Boy.
00:23:24Ah, Johnny Boy, welcome.
00:23:26Take a seat.
00:23:28Look, I got the chef to make your favourite meal.
00:23:30Wow.
00:23:32It all looks so good.
00:23:34And you're in a very good mood tonight.
00:23:36Yes.
00:23:38I thought after the way you stormed out last night,
00:23:40I'd have to be worried about you.
00:23:42Don't worry about that, I've got that under control as usual.
00:23:44Well, even better now.
00:23:46Well, cheers to the night.
00:23:48Cheers.
00:23:50I hope you've worked up a big appetite.
00:23:52It's going to be another three-course meal.
00:23:54It's the best meal I've ever been.
00:23:56It all looks delicious.
00:23:58So...
00:24:00I noticed Miss Harris called you yesterday.
00:24:02I didn't realise you guys were
00:24:04becoming so surprised.
00:24:06It's nothing serious.
00:24:08I reached out to apologise to her,
00:24:10and we've been friendly ever since.
00:24:12So you're making progress, right?
00:24:14Sneaking slowly into her heart.
00:24:16One phone call at a time.
00:24:18What's next?
00:24:20Sex on the beach?
00:24:22Jack, please.
00:24:24Don't start that now.
00:24:26Don't ruin a good dinner.
00:24:34What is it?
00:24:36Guess who's going to have Ava
00:24:38work under him?
00:24:52Hello.
00:24:54You asked to see me?
00:24:56Yes, I did.
00:24:58Have a seat.
00:25:00I don't understand.
00:25:02What are you doing here?
00:25:04Well, I bought the hotel off the old owners.
00:25:06It's as simple as that.
00:25:08Are you shocked to see me since the first time we met?
00:25:10Have you spoken about me at least?
00:25:12Well, I know you're my brother when you speak,
00:25:14and what do you think?
00:25:16I'm just going to vanish into thin air?
00:25:18I don't think so.
00:25:20You think I'm just going to vanish into thin air?
00:25:22No, I didn't ask about you.
00:25:24You were out of prick that day.
00:25:26Watch your tone, young lady.
00:25:28You don't want to be getting
00:25:30fired speaking to the boss now, do you?
00:25:32Of course not.
00:25:34You don't have to worry.
00:25:36It's not going to ask you to know me or anyone.
00:25:38Not yet.
00:25:40I think HR would hate to hear about that.
00:25:42I don't give a shit about HR.
00:25:44I own HR, which means I own you.
00:25:46Well, that'll be all, Miss Harris.
00:25:48You can get back to work.
00:25:50But my brother doesn't need to know about this.
00:25:52Just the man I was looking for.
00:26:18When's it start?
00:26:20Take a look at this. Blackthorn Corporation isn't doing as badly as we feared.
00:26:25It's not as good as when Dad was here, but it's still alive and kicking.
00:26:30I've got some news, but I'm not sure if you're going to like it.
00:26:34I think it can wait. Can we take a look at this first? You can tell me after.
00:26:38No, I can't wait.
00:26:41Okay, you have my attention. What is it?
00:26:45I'm afraid I have to relinquish some of my responsibilities at Blackthorn.
00:26:49What? Why?
00:26:51I bought a hotel. You bought a hotel?
00:26:53The Belki Hotel. I've just signed the papers.
00:26:55Why the fuck would you do that?
00:26:57You're barely even here. Now you've gone and bought a hotel?
00:27:00It's money from my own fund. You don't have to worry.
00:27:03I just thought I'd let you know because I won't be around much longer.
00:27:06All two things settle down.
00:27:09This is the hotel management. I best be off.
00:27:19This is quite a surprise. I mean, it's a good surprise. Please come in.
00:27:28So, this is your place?
00:27:32Yeah. Welcome to how the other half lives.
00:27:39I didn't mean...
00:27:41Isn't this what your family wanted for you? To mingle with the lower class?
00:27:46I'm just guessing with you.
00:27:49Okay. These are for you.
00:27:55Who said those?
00:27:56My favorite thing.
00:27:58How did you know?
00:28:00I made a good guess.
00:28:11Somehow, I don't believe it was a random guess.
00:28:15Come on, tell me the truth.
00:28:18Okay, fine.
00:28:20You told me you really liked chrysanthemums since you were little,
00:28:23and your grandpa used to grow them in his garden.
00:28:27Yeah, I do like them.
00:28:29They're beautiful and unique.
00:28:35I'm glad you love them.
00:28:37I almost got you wild orchids.
00:28:39I mean, I do like those too.
00:28:42Okay, I would have cooked dinner, but I do have chocolate chip ice cream.
00:28:49My favorite flavor.
00:28:51What's yours?
00:28:52Boring old vanilla, I'm afraid.
00:28:55Vanilla isn't always boring.
00:28:59It's...
00:29:01It's nice and...
00:29:04Plain.
00:29:07I'm sorry. I was trying to think of another adjective.
00:29:13It's so nice.
00:29:19You're staring. Do I have something on my face?
00:29:22No.
00:29:24You're perfect.
00:29:26You're so beautiful, Angela.
00:29:30Thank you. I'm quite handsome, so...
00:29:35May I kiss you?
00:29:43No.
00:29:53No.
00:29:55Sorry, I don't know what came over me.
00:29:58It's all right. We'll just call it a payment.
00:30:01Right. That's all.
00:30:04Did you know Jack was going to buy the hotel where I work?
00:30:08Is this some kind of weird game you guys are playing of inheritance?
00:30:11No. I had no idea he was going to do that.
00:30:15My brother talks cryptically, and he can be hard to decode sometimes.
00:30:19He didn't mention anything until a few minutes before you called.
00:30:22How come he can afford to buy a whole freaking hotel?
00:30:25Aren't you guys supposed to be hanging on to your father's properties?
00:30:28Yes, we are.
00:30:30But his purchase didn't exactly make a dent in our savings.
00:30:34We both have healthy trust funds.
00:30:37Jack just took some money out of his to buy the hotel.
00:30:40Well, isn't it just fantastic rich boys can do that?
00:30:44So what do I do? I like my job and I need it.
00:30:47But Jack told me to watch my back.
00:30:49I wasn't supposed to tell you that.
00:30:52I think he was just saying that to freak you out.
00:30:55He wouldn't have told me about the hotel if he didn't want me to know.
00:30:58I can't believe my new boss is trying to marry me so he can get a couple million dollars.
00:31:03More than a couple billion, actually.
00:31:07Wow, I feel even more special.
00:31:11I should be going. Let me know if anything.
00:31:21I know you'll probably want to leave, but would you like some pizza? It's good.
00:31:26I don't want to intrude.
00:31:28I'm just inviting you to join me. Just two friends eating pizza and chatting about life.
00:31:33Is that what we are? Friends?
00:31:35I think so, but close enough at least.
00:31:38Even though I kissed you?
00:31:40Yes, even though you kissed me.
00:31:42Fine.
00:31:52This is so cozy.
00:31:54I know. I can't remember the last time I was just hanging out like this.
00:31:59You're welcome.
00:32:06I swear to god.
00:32:11What? What was that? I noticed the look on your face.
00:32:14It's nothing serious. Just work. I don't have to deal with it right now.
00:32:22You'll be alright then.
00:32:24I just...
00:32:28I'm still thinking about the fact that, you know, Jack...
00:32:32I'm still thinking about the fact that, you know, Jack...
00:32:36is now my boss.
00:32:40Will you bring it up with him?
00:32:42No.
00:32:44Not yet at least.
00:32:46I think it's best if he thinks he has the upper hand for now.
00:32:51What happens next?
00:32:54I don't know, Eva.
00:32:56But I promise you he'll do nothing stupid.
00:32:59You have my word.
00:33:02You have my word.
00:33:13Hello, my beautiful Eva. Work is hectic this morning.
00:33:15I need a meeting until late hour. How does dinner sound tonight?
00:33:18Your wish, John.
00:33:21I can't wait to think about Liberty. Have a great day.
00:33:25Eva?
00:33:27Are you on your phone right now? This is not your personal space.
00:33:31I remind you that you're at work, and you must be focusing on that.
00:33:34My apologies, sir. I was just checking my calendar.
00:33:37Ah, your calendar. How timely.
00:33:40I promise I'm up to date on my morning tasks,
00:33:43and I'm just currently grading the candidates for the sous chef role.
00:33:46I promise I haven't been slacking off.
00:33:48Well, I'll be the judge of that, because I'll be supervising all interviews from now on.
00:33:52Of course.
00:33:54Of course.
00:33:55Of course, Mr. Blackhorse, sir.
00:33:58I'm off now, Ms. Harris. There's something I need to show you, and it's urgent.
00:34:10Please shut the door behind you.
00:34:19Is there something wrong?
00:34:21As a matter of fact, there is.
00:34:25What's this?
00:34:27Open it. It's a little present from me to you.
00:34:29I'm sure you'll find the contents quite interesting.
00:34:36What's this? When was this taken?
00:34:38These are pictures of my brother with his little fling in a fancy restaurant.
00:34:42This isn't real.
00:34:44This is AI docket or something.
00:34:46I knew you would say something like that, so I have even stronger proof.
00:34:49Yes, you're my friends at the restaurant. I am quite close with the son,
00:34:52and you could easily get the live feed, and now I owe him.
00:34:56One way or another, this is fake, and I believe you.
00:35:01Oh, you have magically fallen in love with your homie, Sherry.
00:35:04Don't tell me you're fucking him.
00:35:07Oh, wow. I didn't see this one come in.
00:35:10Wow, Johnny Boy is working so quickly. Good on him.
00:35:14Since you have, you know, benefit done for him,
00:35:17why don't you give him a call and ask for the camera footage yourself?
00:35:27There's only one way to find out now, isn't there? Call him.
00:35:47Hello, it's me.
00:35:51How's it going?
00:35:57You're in a meeting right now, is that correct?
00:36:01Uh-huh.
00:36:06Oh, don't be so sad.
00:36:10These women don't last long, and I'm sure he's going to call and say it's just a business meeting,
00:36:15but anyone with eyes and ears and a head will know that's nothing like that.
00:36:21Why are you doing this?
00:36:23Oh, well, I want to make sure that you know what kind of man my brother really is.
00:36:27Then let me guess. You're the upstanding brother?
00:36:30Just doing his betterment for the world, is that what this is?
00:36:36You can't pretend, even for a second, you haven't done this for your own nefarious purposes.
00:36:41No matter how selfless you want to appear, you're no better than your brother.
00:36:45In fact, I see more similarities than differences in you two now.
00:36:50Watch your tone, young woman.
00:36:52Have you forgotten I'm still your boss?
00:36:54You don't want to get fired now for living in a temple for some man, do you?
00:37:04That's okay, you go back to your office now.
00:37:06Don't worry about the interviews, I'll take care of that.
00:37:08No, let me handle the interviews. I don't need a day off.
00:37:12Okay, fine. But make sure you're efficient.
00:37:14I don't want to hear any reports of my junior manager bursting into tears while screening you stuff.
00:37:19That would be highly embarrassing.
00:37:22I'll make sure everything goes well.
00:37:30Hey, you.
00:37:33How was your meeting?
00:37:35You know, the one that took hours and hours of your time?
00:37:39It must have been really important.
00:37:42No, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it to dinner tonight.
00:37:46I'm not feeling too good, so we'll have to make a rain check until further notice.
00:38:04That's one quick door break.
00:38:06It's you.
00:38:07There you are. I've been knocking for ages. Your TV was so loud.
00:38:12I brought you ice cream.
00:38:13That's not necessary. I'm doing okay.
00:38:16Are you sure you're okay, though?
00:38:19You don't look so good.
00:38:22Have you been to the doctor?
00:38:23Is everything okay with you, John?
00:38:25You sound pissed off with me. What's wrong?
00:38:29You're acting strange and you haven't even let me come in.
00:38:33I don't think this is a conversation we should be having in the hallway.
00:38:36Strange? Or am I just not all over you like the other night?
00:38:40I guess you want a repeat.
00:38:41Too bad. It's just not going to happen.
00:38:44What the fuck is that supposed to mean?
00:38:46Are you going to keep spitting cryptic phrases like that,
00:38:48or are you going to let me come in so we can have a civilized conversation?
00:38:51The ice cream's melting.
00:38:53I don't give a shit about the melting ice cream.
00:38:55My foot ruins your expensive shoes.
00:38:58The last time we spoke, you were cheerful.
00:39:00Now you're acting like a dog pissed in your cereal.
00:39:02If I said or did something wrong, just let me know, okay?
00:39:07Fuck off. That's what I want to tell you.
00:39:12Where is this coming from?
00:39:14You didn't give me a single clue that anything was wrong,
00:39:16and now you're blowing it up in my face.
00:39:19You know, I ordered Chinese food, but I fucking will do.
00:39:24Are you even listening to me?
00:39:25You're acting like I'm not even talking to you.
00:39:28You came to check up on me, and you've done that.
00:39:31You brought me my ice cream.
00:39:32You can go on your merry way.
00:39:35Don't you dare touch me.
00:39:37What the hell, Evangeline?
00:39:38You're being childish.
00:39:39What the hell, Evangeline?
00:39:41You're being childish and lashing out for no good reason.
00:39:44If you didn't want to see me, you could have given me a single phone call.
00:39:47You didn't have to fake illness just to get out of seeing me.
00:39:50Yeah, whatever.
00:39:52You can stay yourself out.
00:39:54Have a nice lunch.
00:39:56Eva, wait!
00:40:04But of course I'll pay you back.
00:40:06Disgusting you say such a thing.
00:40:07You know how things go.
00:40:09One good turn turns to another.
00:40:11Anyway, I've got to go. I'll call you back later. Bye.
00:40:20Hey, brother.
00:40:22What are you doing here?
00:40:24Is it a crime to come check up on family?
00:40:26What are you really doing here, John?
00:40:28I doubt family concerns brought you here.
00:40:30Why don't you come and see Eva?
00:40:32I know you know she works here, and she does look gorgeous in that tight body.
00:40:35You keep her name out of your mouth.
00:40:37Ah, so I am right.
00:40:39You did come all this way just to see your little girlfriend.
00:40:42Don't tell me you've had a little rocky patch now, have you?
00:40:45How do you know about that?
00:40:47Maybe she told me.
00:40:49Why do I get the feeling that you had something to do with it?
00:40:52Well, why don't you ask yourself? I'm sure she'll be in here any second.
00:40:55Funnily enough, why don't you count down with me in five, four, three...
00:41:00These are the reports you asked for?
00:41:05Ah, please come in. Right on time.
00:41:07I just finished speaking with IT.
00:41:09They've made the changes you've requested already,
00:41:11and I was able to export the new data into the system.
00:41:14Perfect. Look, when you come to the Big First,
00:41:16see if it'd be comfortable for you to leave it there.
00:41:23You're really going to act like you can't see me right now, are you?
00:41:26No, I'm not.
00:41:28You're not?
00:41:30No, I'm not.
00:41:32You're really going to act like you can't see me right now?
00:41:35Either.
00:41:37That'll be all for now.
00:41:39We do need a cross-check to make sure the figures are right,
00:41:41and make sure it's all foolproof, all right?
00:41:43Okay, I'll get on to that right now.
00:41:45And I'll check the new schedules.
00:41:50Please, I'm about on my way.
00:41:52You're acting like I'm radioactive.
00:41:54John, will you please step aside? I've got to get to work. Thank you.
00:41:56You stay out of this, Jack.
00:41:58It's none of your business.
00:41:59This is between me and her.
00:42:01There is nothing between you and I.
00:42:03In fact, I doubt there ever was.
00:42:09Fucking asshole!
00:42:11What bullshit did you tell her now?
00:42:13Watch your tone, young man.
00:42:15You're not the boss around here.
00:42:17If you don't watch yourself, Jack boy,
00:42:19I might just get somebody to escort your little bumper.
00:42:21I'm out of here now.
00:42:23Whatever you did, I'm going to get to the bottom of it.
00:42:30You'll be less stressed when you have a strong drink.
00:42:34No, I'm good with this, thank you.
00:42:36Has my brother tried contacting you?
00:42:38He was quite adamant last time.
00:42:40No, he hasn't.
00:42:42That's good.
00:42:44Some of the staff have been approved to turn off,
00:42:46so we just need to adjust the budgets.
00:42:48Let me see that.
00:42:50Yeah, that's much better.
00:42:52I can really see the smoke coming out.
00:42:55I'll just need you all to catch up here.
00:42:57And here.
00:42:59Have I told you how beautiful you look today?
00:43:01What?
00:43:03Don't act so surprised.
00:43:05You surely have to know how you act around me
00:43:07when you dress like that.
00:43:09Some of us here, why are you so shy?
00:43:11I think we're done for the day.
00:43:13No, no, no.
00:43:15I'm going to work to the essentials.
00:43:17What the hell are you doing?
00:43:18Jack!
00:43:26Jack, that hurts!
00:43:28Let go of me!
00:43:30That's exactly what I'm doing.
00:43:32Don't be so naive.
00:43:34Jack, stop.
00:43:36Why are you so insistent?
00:43:38I know you want me.
00:43:40I can see the smoke.
00:43:43Actually, there's something more coming.
00:43:45What?
00:43:47Fucking bitch, where are you going?
00:44:01What's this?
00:44:03That's a half a million dollars.
00:44:05Yours, yeah.
00:44:07Fine.
00:44:09I know you didn't just call me out of the blue for nothing.
00:44:13I was coming to you because
00:44:14I know you're your daughter's best interest at heart.
00:44:16She's especially got that ego.
00:44:20Now I can tell that you know your way around words.
00:44:22Can we just get straight to the point, please?
00:44:24Alright then.
00:44:26You're aware of stipulations in my father's will.
00:44:28Sure.
00:44:30I want to marry your daughter.
00:44:32There's been a misunderstanding.
00:44:34And I need you to smooth it over.
00:44:36Because, well,
00:44:38you're the only one your daughter looks up to.
00:44:40What type of misunderstanding was this?
00:44:42I mean, why don't you just go to her and ask her forgiveness?
00:44:44My daughter doesn't hold grudges.
00:44:46I know my daughter.
00:44:48Well, that's between your daughter and I.
00:44:50I hope you understand.
00:44:52No, you see, I don't understand.
00:44:54Because you just made it my business by bringing it to me.
00:44:56Now tell me,
00:44:58was this a misunderstanding of a sexual nature?
00:45:00And was this misunderstanding non-consensual?
00:45:04As I said, this is between your daughter and I.
00:45:06I'm aware lots of normal happens behind closed doors.
00:45:09Now you see,
00:45:11you are more than a twisted rich prick.
00:45:12If you think you're going to pay me to hush my daughter.
00:45:21Yes, very so.
00:45:23Now I don't know what tricks you have up your sleeve,
00:45:25but I can tell you this.
00:45:27There's nothing compared to the wrath of an angry woman.
00:45:29Wow.
00:45:31And you can best believe
00:45:33that if you did something bad to her,
00:45:35you'll pay for it.
00:45:37That'll have to do great with you.
00:45:39But how angry and heartbroken would your daughter feel
00:45:40when she notices the first sweetener
00:45:42that you got from the Black Thorns?
00:45:44Sweetener?
00:45:46I don't know what you're talking about.
00:45:48I'm not done, Miss Harris.
00:45:50I didn't just come to you
00:45:52because I was feeling sentimental
00:45:54about your relationship with your daughter.
00:45:56I came here to offer you more money,
00:45:58an additional payment
00:46:00that you got from my father to introduce.
00:46:02I really don't know what you're talking about.
00:46:04Spare me the bullshit.
00:46:06I've seen your signature in a couple of documents.
00:46:08I just wanted to have something
00:46:10to tell you about your college.
00:46:12Only a minor will need a guidance from a child.
00:46:14What do I know?
00:46:16That's not what I want.
00:46:18But I do know that in a court of law,
00:46:20a carer such as yourself
00:46:22taking the benefit of a poor man's dying...
00:46:24What do you expect me to do, Jack?
00:46:26Hm?
00:46:28Wave this magic wand
00:46:30and just miraculously have my daughter forgive you?
00:46:32I don't know about your world,
00:46:34but in mine it doesn't work that way.
00:46:36It's a beautiful thing now, isn't it?
00:46:38Maybe you should mention John
00:46:40and try to play your cards right.
00:46:42Maybe you might get the forgiveness of your daughter.
00:46:44I'm not sure. That's up to you.
00:46:58So long, Velvet Hotel.
00:47:11Hey, darling.
00:47:13How are you doing?
00:47:15Well, I thought I wasn't seeing you to our lunch last week.
00:47:17Well, I was in the neighbourhood
00:47:19and I thought I would bring you some pizza.
00:47:21Oh, that is very good of you.
00:47:23Well, thank you for the pizza.
00:47:25Let's have it straight away.
00:47:27Pleasure.
00:47:29So, how have you been doing?
00:47:31You look really relaxed today.
00:47:33You haven't told me that my hair
00:47:35looks like a bird's nest
00:47:37or the baggy clothes I'm wearing
00:47:38are off as serious as black.
00:47:40Well, okay.
00:47:42So, I can't even give you a compliment now
00:47:44and it's taken the opposite way.
00:47:46I can't even say nice things to you now.
00:47:48Rather, tell me how is things
00:47:50with that Blackthorn boy
00:47:52that you were smiling about the other day?
00:47:54You mean John?
00:47:56Yeah. We're no longer together.
00:47:58I honestly don't know if we ever were.
00:48:00Oh, okay.
00:48:02And what about the other one?
00:48:04I think it also starts with a J.
00:48:06Jack?
00:48:07Yeah.
00:48:09I heard him last.
00:48:11I heard he was actually now your boss or something.
00:48:13Things between us, how they should be.
00:48:15What does that mean?
00:48:17Is there something else going on?
00:48:19You know that you can talk to me, sweetie.
00:48:26There was an incident between me and Jack.
00:48:28He got physical.
00:48:30Were you guys drinking?
00:48:32No, Mum. I wasn't drinking.
00:48:34Neither was he.
00:48:35I'm just asking.
00:48:37I mean, what do you think is going to happen
00:48:39if you're alone with your boss?
00:48:41I mean, he's a handsome boy
00:48:43and you guys must be attracted to each other.
00:48:45What are you saying? That I wanted this?
00:48:47I didn't.
00:48:49I'm just saying you can use this to your advantage.
00:48:51I mean, things didn't work out with you and John.
00:48:53Why not just go with the other brother?
00:48:55That is so messed up.
00:48:57He tried to assault me.
00:48:59Can you hear yourself?
00:49:01I've just been through something really traumatic
00:49:03and I won't hear anymore from you.
00:49:05I can't do this with you anymore, Mum.
00:49:07Every time I think we're trying to bond
00:49:09you just start making unreasonable demands and...
00:49:11Can you just please, please?
00:49:13Fine.
00:49:15Fuck.
00:49:42Jack, my turn.
00:49:44Oh, I'm sorry. I think I just...
00:49:56Hey.
00:49:59Thank you for agreeing to see me.
00:50:05You sounded desperate.
00:50:07It was the least I could do.
00:50:09I know what it feels like not to be heard.
00:50:11I'm sorry about that.
00:50:14I did that because I just wanted to lash out
00:50:16and hurt you the same way you hurt me.
00:50:19For the hundredth time,
00:50:21I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:50:23Could you please get straight to the point?
00:50:25Why do you want to see me now?
00:50:27It's been weeks since you slammed your door in my face.
00:50:29I wanted to apologise
00:50:31because I acted unfairly.
00:50:35I was shown pictures and a live video of you
00:50:37and I thought it was a good thing.
00:50:38Pictures and a live video of you
00:50:40and a beautiful Asian woman.
00:50:42Who?
00:50:44Ella Sui?
00:50:46That's ridiculous. She's a client.
00:50:48I know that now, but
00:50:50at the time it seemed like you guys were much more than clients
00:50:52and, look, trust me, I just...
00:50:54I saw you guys live.
00:50:56Who showed you those pictures and videos?
00:50:58Who wanted to tear us apart?
00:51:02It was Jack, wasn't it?
00:51:05Yes, it was Jack.
00:51:06He completely manipulated me.
00:51:08He had access to security footage
00:51:10and I completely fell for it.
00:51:13What were you falling for?
00:51:15I just... I realised who she was
00:51:17after I saw a news segment of her
00:51:19and her fiancé.
00:51:21Oh.
00:51:23I'm here to apologise for the unkind way I treated you
00:51:25and I embarrassed you and...
00:51:28Can you please forgive me?
00:51:37Jack is a master manipulator
00:51:39but I can't believe he got access to the security footage.
00:51:42I could sue for violation of privacy.
00:51:44I doubt the owners thought it through.
00:51:46I don't think so either,
00:51:48but Jack mentioned something about
00:51:50throwing someone at me, and...
00:51:52You must be so hurt.
00:51:54I'm sorry you were put in that position.
00:51:56Of course I forgive you.
00:51:58I'm so sorry.
00:52:00I'm so sorry.
00:52:02I'm so sorry.
00:52:04I'm so sorry.
00:52:06Why are you so kind to me?
00:52:08You should make me growl.
00:52:10I deserve it.
00:52:12There's no point in that.
00:52:14We've wasted weeks already.
00:52:16I've missed you so much.
00:52:19I've missed you too.
00:52:27Your lips are as soft as ever.
00:52:30It's disgusting.
00:52:33Did anything happen between you and Jack?
00:52:36Why did you... Did you see something?
00:52:38No, it's just...
00:52:40You were friendlier to him
00:52:42that day at the office.
00:52:44No, nothing happened.
00:52:46Except when he tried to force himself upon me.
00:52:48It was... It was late.
00:52:50He did what?
00:52:52He didn't rape me.
00:52:54That fucking asshole!
00:52:56That son of a bitch, I'm gonna fucking kill him!
00:52:58It's fine.
00:53:00Don't make excuses for him.
00:53:02What he did was fucked up.
00:53:07What the fuck's going on here?
00:53:09What the fuck does it look like, brother?
00:53:11My darling and I are just enjoying dinner together
00:53:14in our family home.
00:53:16Isn't that right, sweetheart?
00:53:18Yes, it is.
00:53:20The pasta is the best I've ever tasted in my life.
00:53:22Now, isn't that nice?
00:53:24Jack, surely you'd like to join us?
00:53:26Join you?
00:53:28I don't think so.
00:53:30I don't think so.
00:53:32I don't think so.
00:53:34I don't think so.
00:53:36No, thank you.
00:53:38Okay.
00:53:40Your loss.
00:53:42It's good to see you both have reached each other again.
00:53:44Yeah, sweet.
00:53:46You must be thrilled.
00:53:48Yes, we are in fact very thrilled.
00:53:50It only took us a short while to find each other
00:53:53and that's how you know it's real.
00:53:56Right.
00:53:58And you've been missing work because of your...
00:54:00lover?
00:54:02No.
00:54:06I've been missing work because my boss assaulted me.
00:54:09I had to resign.
00:54:11Or maybe HR hasn't mentioned that to you yet.
00:54:14Assault?
00:54:16You both know you seduce me.
00:54:18What assault?
00:54:20And HR?
00:54:22John, she's fucking lying.
00:54:24Can you repeat that, please?
00:54:26Slower this time.
00:54:28I don't think I quite heard you the first time.
00:54:30She's a...
00:54:32Waver's only here because her mummy sold her off.
00:54:34Mummy sold her off?
00:54:36You don't know mummy told you this.
00:54:38What the hell are you talking about?
00:54:40What do you mean she sold me off?
00:54:42You don't know?
00:54:44Mama Harris put an extra clause into the claim
00:54:48because she wanted more money.
00:54:50What, you think she's just going to kick her daughter up a social ladder?
00:54:53No, no, no.
00:54:55She was only there to prove your father gave something in return.
00:54:58You're lying!
00:55:05Am I lying?
00:55:07Am I lying?
00:55:09Maybe you should ask her yourself.
00:55:11It's not the first time
00:55:13she's had Blackthorn money stuffed in her pocket.
00:55:16Did she...
00:55:18surprise you with her visit?
00:55:20Yeah, she did.
00:55:22So that was you who pushed her on me.
00:55:25That looks sealed.
00:55:27When did you become such a terrible person, Jack?
00:55:31You're destroying the relationship between a mother and a daughter
00:55:34to get what you want.
00:55:36She's already made her choice.
00:55:38Eva has chosen me just as I have chosen her.
00:55:41It's over, Jack.
00:55:43No, no.
00:55:46It's not over.
00:55:55Please say something.
00:55:58I don't know what to say other than
00:56:00I'm sorry we've put you through so much.
00:56:03You didn't ask for any of this.
00:56:05And I'm sorry that your mother hasn't been honest with you.
00:56:08That revelation about her must have hurt so much.
00:56:13I wonder why she just pushed Jack's assault to me on the side.
00:56:19She just...
00:56:21She doesn't seem to care
00:56:23about the trauma I went through.
00:56:28She just told me,
00:56:30look on the bright side.
00:56:33It's crazy that she pushed Jack onto me after what he did.
00:56:39I've been so stupid.
00:56:43Don't say that.
00:56:45You're kind and smart and good
00:56:48and vulnerable to people trying to take advantage of you.
00:56:56I don't know what to do.
00:57:00Will you marry me?
00:57:02Yes, yes, Jack, yes.
00:57:12Now we can finally put an end to all of this bullshit with my brother.
00:57:16I can't wait to see the look on his face when we tell him we're going to engage.
00:57:20He's going to be furious.
00:57:23Okay, but we have to tell the lawyer about
00:57:27what happened.
00:57:28Yes.
00:57:30But first,
00:57:32we need to celebrate.
00:57:34You're going to be my lovely wife, Eva.
00:57:37Cheers to us.
00:57:39Cheers.
00:57:48What the heavenly fuck?
00:57:51What the heavenly fuck?
00:57:56Let's talk about this.
00:57:59When can I see you at the agents?
00:58:01When are you available?
00:58:03Yes, it's about the will.
00:58:05I'll be up over as soon as I can.
00:58:07No, John, there's nothing about this.
00:58:09It's not of his concern.
00:58:10No, John, there's nothing about this.
00:58:12It's not of his concern.
00:58:20You got yourself into this,
00:58:21and the only way out for you is to hold up your end of the bargain.
00:58:24My end of the bargain?
00:58:26You tampered with the contract,
00:58:27and now everything is messed up.
00:58:29My daughter won't even speak to me.
00:58:31You can't just...
00:58:35What was that?
00:58:36She just flew out of here.
00:58:38Uh, that's confidential.
00:58:41Yeah, of course it is.
00:58:42Man, whoever that was, she was pissed.
00:58:44You said you had something to tell me.
00:58:45Something about the will?
00:58:47I had news.
00:58:48What did you say?
00:58:50He's going to blow everything up in the air.
00:58:52Yeah, see, that's some lesson.
00:58:53I want to contest my father's will.
00:58:55What?
00:58:56Well, he signed it, and he was forced by Anna Harris.
00:58:58It's probably under duress.
00:58:59What?
00:59:00Well, until this gets cleared up, it will stand.
00:59:03If I have to sue John over it, so be it.
00:59:08Oh, Jack.
00:59:10What's so fucking funny?
00:59:12The contract your father signed with Anna Harris
00:59:14was not signed under duress.
00:59:16How can you be so sure of my private business?
00:59:18Sure, because I was there when it was signed.
00:59:20It was your father's idea to begin with.
00:59:23That's...
00:59:24It's not possible.
00:59:25It can't be.
00:59:26But why would my father sign a contract?
00:59:28He knew Anna Harris wanted money for her incentive.
00:59:31But he also made sure she had a reason to be there.
00:59:35Also, made sure she had a reason to stay involved
00:59:38even after the money was paid to her.
00:59:40What reason?
00:59:42Your father was a smart man.
00:59:44Though not unkind.
00:59:46He didn't get so wealthy by being a pushover.
00:59:49He included a clause in the contract that stipulated
00:59:51that if Angeline did not marry one of his sons,
00:59:54Anna would have to repay the money.
00:59:56Let me guess.
00:59:57Anna didn't know about that before she signed?
00:59:59She did not.
01:00:00Foolishly, she did not read the file in print.
01:00:02Your father left an apology note
01:00:04and me to explain exactly why he did what he did.
01:00:07Fuck.
01:00:09Jack Blackthorn.
01:00:11This isn't the time nor the place for that kind of language.
01:00:13Man, I was so close to getting this right.
01:00:16Why is my father always one step ahead?
01:00:19Hate me from the fucking grave.
01:00:21I understand you're upset.
01:00:23But if you had taken this to court,
01:00:25you would have been humiliated when it got thrown at you.
01:00:27You did yourself a favor by coming to me first, son.
01:00:29I'm not your fucking father.
01:00:31I'm your fucking son.
01:00:33You know what?
01:00:34This is all frickin' sad.
01:00:35You just want your Johnny Boy to win, huh?
01:00:37Guess what?
01:00:38I'm not going to give over and lay on my fucking grave.
01:01:01What are you doing here?
01:01:03Where's your daughter?
01:01:05Not here.
01:01:07I told you she's not here.
01:01:09Are you deaf?
01:01:11Aaron's perfectly fine.
01:01:13Thank you very much.
01:01:15This is the way your daughter lives in this shit hole.
01:01:17I guess they all try to fuck and face for free money.
01:01:19Like mother, like daughter.
01:01:21Oh, excuse me.
01:01:23You can't come into my daughter's place
01:01:25and then throw insults around.
01:01:27What are you doing here anyway?
01:01:29You're crazy.
01:01:31What's your name?
01:01:33How are you supposed to be here?
01:01:35I'm her mother.
01:01:37I have a key.
01:01:39It was you at the lawyer's office earlier, wasn't it?
01:01:41You need to get out.
01:01:43If you didn't fuck things up with your daughter,
01:01:45I would have had that man.
01:01:47Oh, excuse me.
01:01:49If you weren't such a sleazy, creepy son of a bitch,
01:01:51you may have stood a chance with her.
01:01:53You dirty gold digger.
01:01:55Like your dirty daughter, eh?
01:01:57Guess I'm going to have to call 2-5 on the train to Hazard.
01:02:02Hannah, what the fuck?
01:02:04Say something.
01:02:06What are you saying?
01:02:08Help.
01:02:10No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:02:12Hannah, don't you dare dial on me.
01:02:20There's a woman.
01:02:22She's unconscious.
01:02:24She just suddenly fell.
01:02:27I don't know anything about medication.
01:02:29She just hit her head.
01:02:32Fuck.
01:02:34Fuck.
01:02:36Fuck.
01:02:38Fuck.
01:02:40Fuck.
01:03:01Fuck.
01:03:25I'm so going to miss this place.
01:03:27Even though it's small.
01:03:29I was independent and happy here.
01:03:32Don't get too comfy.
01:03:34We're only here to pick up your things.
01:03:36You're going to run for being in the mansion.
01:03:40That's weird.
01:03:42What's weird?
01:03:44Something feels off.
01:03:46The apartment seems cleaner than I remember.
01:03:50Your mother came around here.
01:03:52You mentioned she had a key.
01:03:54Hannah hated this place.
01:03:56Cleaning's the last thing she'd do here.
01:03:58You just left it clean and then you left.
01:04:03I'd like to bring some other people here.
01:04:05They're not sophisticated, but I like them.
01:04:10What about your toiletries?
01:04:12Good idea. I just need to pack my things and go to the bathroom.
01:04:23Hey, Eva.
01:04:25I need to go.
01:04:27Wait.
01:04:29What?
01:04:31I've been ignoring Jack's calls,
01:04:33but he just sent me a message saying there's been an emergency.
01:04:35I need to go meet him.
01:04:37I hope he's okay.
01:04:39I'm sure he's fine.
01:04:41It's probably just a flat tire or something.
01:04:43I'll be back ASAP.
01:04:45Don't stay too long, okay?
01:04:57Let's go.
01:05:10Let's not do it.
01:05:15Don't scream.
01:05:22Don't scream.
01:05:23It's okay.
01:05:25You.
01:05:27You sent John a message.
01:05:29Yes, I did.
01:05:31What are you doing?
01:05:33Where did you come from?
01:05:35Is this one of your games you're playing now?
01:05:37Give me that! That's mine!
01:05:39I'll take that, thank you.
01:05:42You didn't answer my question.
01:05:44What are you doing inside my apartment?
01:05:46I'm sorry, I'm locked in. I just walked in.
01:05:48That's impossible.
01:05:50I would have heard you.
01:05:51I thought you were worried about an emergency
01:05:53when you were already coming here yourself.
01:05:55Are you trying to imply that I broke into your house
01:05:57or that I lied to my brother?
01:05:59I'm not trying to imply anything.
01:06:01Something isn't adding up.
01:06:03Come on, Eve.
01:06:05You can trust me.
01:06:07We're going to be family after all.
01:06:09Why did you call me?
01:06:11Maybe John told you.
01:06:13No, he didn't.
01:06:16Let go of me!
01:06:18Lisa!
01:06:19Lisa!
01:06:21Shut up!
01:06:26Don't say anything. Keep your mouth shut.
01:06:34Hello, brother.
01:06:36No, I don't know where she is.
01:06:38That mistake was a mistake.
01:06:40I'm out of town right now.
01:06:47Sorry, I had something in my throat.
01:06:49Well, wherever she is,
01:06:51I'm sure she'll be home soon.
01:06:57What do you want?
01:06:59Why are you doing this?
01:07:01I haven't figured that one out yet.
01:07:03But I do know he's done my brother anything for you.
01:07:05I don't want to see him suffer.
01:07:08Stop with fucking stupid questions!
01:07:20You'll be a good little girl now.
01:07:22Don't fucking move or I'll put a bullet in your head!
01:07:25I won't say anything.
01:07:27Then I'll be fucking serious.
01:07:29Whatever it is you want.
01:07:31I'll do it. Just watch.
01:07:33Whatever it is you want, I'll do it.
01:07:36Don't do anything stupid,
01:07:38otherwise I'll send you to meet your mother.
01:07:40What did you just say?
01:07:42What about my mother?
01:07:44Oops, did I say something?
01:07:46Hey! Do you know how to drive a car?
01:07:47Get in the drive seat now.
01:07:55Yes, I understand.
01:07:57But this is an emergency.
01:07:59Mr. Blackthorn would appreciate it
01:08:01if the matter was dealt with urgently.
01:08:04I understand.
01:08:09Is there any news yet?
01:08:11I'm afraid not.
01:08:13The commissioner insists that we have to wait
01:08:15at least 48 hours before we can declare him missing.
01:08:17Damn it!
01:08:19It's the same thing they told me.
01:08:21Can't they even pretend to care?
01:08:23Have you tried calling Jack again?
01:08:25He isn't answering.
01:08:27I don't know what's wrong with him.
01:08:29First he sends me those cryptic text messages
01:08:31and now he's not answering my calls.
01:08:33Maybe he'll answer yours.
01:08:35I doubt it, but I'll try just in case.
01:08:45This might be bad timing,
01:08:47but Jack called me the other day.
01:08:49He wanted to contest your father's will.
01:08:51He was ready to sue you.
01:08:53What?
01:08:55What do you mean he was ready to sue me?
01:08:57He believed Anna tricked your father
01:08:59into giving him money
01:09:01and he wanted to prove that that
01:09:03may have impacted the will.
01:09:05That's preposterous.
01:09:07Why wasn't I told about this earlier?
01:09:09I didn't think it was important
01:09:11because I clarified to Jack that he was misguided.
01:09:13I should have been informed immediately.
01:09:15You're meant to be impartial, remember?
01:09:18What?
01:09:23Hello, Johnny boy.
01:09:25Frankie.
01:09:27What a great evening this is tonight, isn't it?
01:09:29Jack.
01:09:31You're so surprised, are you?
01:09:33Bet you didn't see this one coming out, did ya?
01:09:35Keep him where I can see him now.
01:09:37You don't have to do this, Jack.
01:09:39I've done something really stupid.
01:09:41I can't take it back now.
01:09:43What did you do?
01:09:45We can work this out, just the two of us.
01:09:47No, Jack.
01:09:49Shut up, you know what I'm talking about.
01:09:53I found Anna's earring in my apartment
01:09:55and then he threatened to shoot me.
01:09:57No, no, no, no.
01:09:59It's an accident.
01:10:01I didn't mean to do it.
01:10:03I didn't mean to kill her.
01:10:05No!
01:10:08It's okay.
01:10:10Like you said, it was just an accident.
01:10:12We can work this out together.
01:10:14I'm sorry, man.
01:10:15I didn't mean to come this way.
01:10:17I won't do it anymore.
01:10:19It's okay, brother.
01:10:21We can work this out, just the two of us,
01:10:23before all this craziness happens.
01:10:27No, it's not okay!
01:10:29You're mad at my mother!
01:10:31Eva, no!
