Transcript
00:00:00I have a gift for you. Jessica, you have inherited this mansion, along with your father's business
00:00:13empire and assets worth over a billion dollars. I just need a signature from you. Oh, and
00:00:18a hundred and five million dollars in cash. Rich! Let me hold on to you. I'll be a baby.
00:00:28You know, my whole life, I grew up in foster care, moving from place to place, and now
00:00:36I finally have a place that I can call home. It must feel great to win a jackpot. No, my
00:00:41only wish is to reunite with my mother. You bastard child! You will never reunite with
00:00:48your mother. We made sure that that whore is gone forever. My mother is gone because
00:00:53of you? Well, we had a little help from James Thornton, the most powerful man in the Thornton
00:00:59family. Time for you to go back to your poor little country, sis. Yes, ma'am. U.S. C.I.S.
00:01:05The visa expired years ago. You're being deported. What? No, there must be some mistake. Adrian,
00:01:10didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork? Whoops. I guess I screwed up. What?
00:01:18Hey, baby. Hey. Adrian, are you cheating on me? With her? Choose the right side, babe.
00:01:24You'll never win against them. That's true. According to the terms of the will, non-citizens
00:01:30are not eligible to inherit the estate. Everything will pass through your next of kin, Lisa Ann
00:01:35Kristen Miller. You thought you could get rich overnight? Keep dreaming. Seriously?
00:01:42Bon voyage, have sis.
00:01:49The boss is urgent. They're about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller.
00:01:55Jessica Miller? It's her.
00:02:06Oh, thank God you're alive. She's so beautiful and kind. The girl I've always dreamed of.
00:02:11She saved my life once. I owe her.
00:02:13Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Jessica? Do I know you? She doesn't remember me.
00:02:27I'm Daniel. You're a lawyer. Just pretend we know each other. If I can get you out of here.
00:02:31We've spoken to the judge and Miss Miller should be released immediately.
00:02:36We can't deport her. She is about to marry a U.S. citizen.
00:02:40Who's the lucky guy? I am. I'll marry her.
00:02:50A fake marriage won't save her. Our marriage is real. Yeah, a hundred percent real. Prove it then.
00:03:02That's it? You call that a kiss?
00:03:10Any more proof, officer? Look, this guy is a lawyer to some of the most important families in town.
00:03:21And if you don't let her go, I'm gonna make sure you lose your damn job. Fine, you can have her.
00:03:26Thank you, officer.
00:03:31Guys, I think we're good. It's not over.
00:03:35We'll be checking your marital status and conducting interviews. And there are a few
00:03:41very specific requirements you should know. Make sure you two are staying in the same house
00:03:45and sleeping in the same bed or it's game over. Well, thank you for the rescue.
00:03:57Oh, it's no problem. But, um, Daniel, would you marry me?
00:04:06Oh, Jessica, I've waited for this moment for five years. I mean, it would only be a contract
00:04:11marriage. But once I get my green card, I'll inherit my father's business empire and
00:04:18I'll share half of it with you. Even your misunderstanding looks so cute. I only want
00:04:22you, Jessica. But before I get my green card, you're gonna have to help me deal with my
00:04:28stepsister and her mom. They're trying to get rid of me and they've already stolen
00:04:33my fortune and they made my mother disappear. Deal. What? That's it?
00:04:44This literally stands for loyalties and new beginnings. Something that I want with you.
00:04:50Now, I know it's rushed, but I promise you, I will buy you a proper ring soon.
00:05:04Now on, let's make every Christmas ornament full of memories.
00:05:10You can't do this. Jess, it's okay. Just wait here. I'll handle it.
00:05:29What? Why are you helping that girl? Kristen Miller is our ally and she wants her the hell
00:05:35out of this picture. It's too late, Dad. We already got married. Are you insane? Did you
00:05:41forget you're supposed to marry Ashley? Daniel Thornton. My mother is gone because of you?
00:05:49Well, we had a little help from James Thornton, the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:05:56Wait, I recognize that face from the newspaper. That was James Thornton from the Thornton family,
00:06:02the family responsible for my mother's disappearance.
00:06:09Stop telling me what I can and cannot do. She saved my life. I owe it to her. Roll the hell
00:06:13up, Daniel. You need to remember your position as the heir to our family and you need to divorce
00:06:19that girl now. I'm doing this to clean your mess up. Just leave us alone.
00:06:24I'm sorry about that. Is your name Daniel Thornton? Yeah.
00:06:39The Thornton family are responsible for the disappearance of my mother. I have been searching
00:06:44for her my entire life. Jess, I can explain. I'm not married. Wait, wait, wait, Jess, Jess.
00:06:52I'm not who you think I am. I have nothing to do with that family. Oh really? Because your name
00:06:55is right here on the marriage certificate. I share the last name as Thornton and I am not one of them.
00:07:02Thornton is a common name, just an ordinary girl. Really? Well, I don't believe you. I saw you
00:07:07talking to James Thornton. Is he your father? Is he your father? No, he's not my father. He was
00:07:15threatening to drive you out of the country and I was not going to have anything to do with it.
00:07:18Jess, I'm on your side. You're not one of them. I'm sorry. It's okay. Don't worry about it.
00:07:32Well, you have a nice apartment. Welcome.
00:07:37Is that your Labrador? It looks exactly like mine. I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:07:42No way. I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine. That's crazy.
00:07:48Jess, we're gonna have to sleep in the same room together just in case immigration ambush us.
00:07:53Yeah, but are you sure you're okay sleeping on the carpet? I mean, you've done so much for me
00:07:59already and I just... Jess, please. I insist. We made a deal, remember? Also, I want to thank you
00:08:06for giving me the chance to get rich. It's okay, Daniel.
00:08:19So,
00:08:41no, no, no, no. I was just passing by and just... Do you need anything?
00:08:48I was joking. Yeah, could you pass me a towel? It's just hanging out next to the door.
00:08:55Yeah, sure.
00:09:08Oh my god. What? I just got fired.
00:09:11What? Wait, Jess, let me go with you.
00:09:29Sam, please don't fire me. I'm sorry, Jess, but your immigration issue put us in a tough spot.
00:09:36I worked for this company for years. I'm sorry, Jess. There's nothing I can do. I'm sorry.
00:09:49Look who's here. Someone who just got fired. This suits you.
00:09:57It was you. I should have known you were behind this. I'm not gonna let you stay here
00:10:02and ruin things. I'm gonna take away everything you have, sister.
00:10:10You just made a big mistake, sir. Who are you? My name is Daniel Thornton,
00:10:14son of James Thornton, the chairman of Thornton Enterprise. Oh, Mr. Thornton, welcome.
00:10:23What brings you here? Well, I have some good news for you. Jessica Miller,
00:10:30she's just closed a billion dollar deal. Take a look.
00:10:44Oh my god.
00:10:48It's real. Absolutely. With her hard work and dedication, she's made this possible.
00:10:55It's a real shame you're gonna lose such a valuable employee. Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton, um,
00:11:00I have made a huge mistake. Uh, Jessica will stay. Good. And, uh,
00:11:10make sure nobody knows we had this conversation.
00:11:16Jessica, you should have told me.
00:11:20And what are you talking about, Sam? Jessica, you secured a huge deal for the company.
00:11:27Thank you. Did you not just fire her? Well, I changed my mind. Jessica's staying. Actually,
00:11:35she's being promoted to sales manager. Can't afford to lose someone as valuable as like her.
00:11:42Great. Thanks, Sam. This is not over.
00:11:50I can't believe it. Jessica kept her job and she gets promoted. Don't worry, Lisa. I just
00:11:56spoke with James Thornton and he had the lawyer change the will in our favor. Jessica will get
00:12:01nothing. Oh my God. That's fantastic. No way.
00:12:22Jessica, how's work? Did you get your job back? Daniel, I need a lawyer.
00:12:31Well, look who decided to show up. Too bad for you, Jess. Turns out daddy's will left you
00:12:39nothing. I knew all along Robert wouldn't leave anything for this little pathetic bastard child.
00:12:48You are out of luck. Well, that's a lie. You showed me the will and I signed the documents.
00:12:54I'm sorry, Jessica. Um, I've just discovered a revised will that, um,
00:12:58supports Kristen and Lisa's claims.
00:13:03Stop. Who is this? He's my lawyer and a damn good one. Oh, you know, Jess,
00:13:09I didn't realize you had enough money to pay for a fancy little lawyer. You sleep with them?
00:13:15Patrick, can I have a word with you outside? Talk all you want. It won't change anything.
00:13:28All right, Patrick, I'm going to keep this short and sweet. I know you changed the will to favor
00:13:32Kristen and Lisa. I know what you're talking about, Mr. Thornton. The revised will's solid.
00:13:37Ted found an email exchange with my father. Here, take a look. You've been caught, Patrick.
00:13:43Honor of the will, I'll report you to the Bar Association. You'll lose your license and any
00:13:48chance of practicing law again. That goes against your father's wishes. You don't understand the
00:13:52position you put me in. I'll deal with my father. Don't you worry about that. You just worry about
00:13:58doing the right thing. Um, this revised will is a fake. The original will stands. What the
00:14:07hell are you doing? He's doing the right thing. Jessica, you've gotten your inheritance back.
00:14:14Congratulations. Oh, my God. Patrick, do what you are supposed to do or James will make sure
00:14:23you face the consequences. Don't listen to him, Patrick. I'll deal with James Thornton.
00:14:29Who the hell do you think you are? James Thornton is one of the most powerful men in this town.
00:14:35I sure can. Isn't that right, Patrick? Yes. The original will stands. No, you are crazy. No,
00:14:42I'm not. According to the original will, Jessica stands to inherit this mansion.
00:14:47Kristen, you're out. I think you two should leave. You ho-wrecker, just like your mother.
00:14:54I will not allow violence. I didn't come here to argue over a house and assets. I came here
00:15:02to be recognized as an actual member of this family. Yeah, well, it's easy for you to say
00:15:06you're getting everything. You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa. You grew up with a father
00:15:10who loved you. I have none. And you took my mother away from me and I still don't know where
00:15:17she is. You two don't deserve this mansion. And I would rather give it away to a charity
00:15:23than to see the two of you living in it. You two should pack your things up. You have one
00:15:33week to leave this house. What the hell were you thinking? Sabotaging my plan? I was just
00:15:46doing the right thing. The right thing? Going against me? Kristen Miller has got no power
00:15:52anymore. Her game is over. I'm sure you didn't come all this way just to argue with me. So what
00:15:58do you want? I just want Jessica to get her mom back. Interesting. What's in it for me?
00:16:08Once Jessica gets her mom back, I'll do whatever you want. Whatever I want? Like what exactly?
00:16:16I'll marry Ashley. You'll marry Ashley? Yeah. You're willing to do that? Yeah, I am.
00:16:25But only if she's reunited with her mother. Okay, deal. I'll make the arrangements.
00:16:34So you're really in love with this one, huh? Yeah, I am. Okay, good. I sure hope she's good.
00:16:43She is. What's wrong? We have a guest. Mr. Thornton.
00:16:54Good to see you again. Interview time. Great.
00:17:00When did you two meet? We met at a friend's party two years ago.
00:17:05What do you say, Jessica? Oh, yeah, yeah. Interesting. And when did you decide to get
00:17:13married? Eight months ago. Six months or eight months? Which one is it? Yeah, eight months ago.
00:17:19Sorry, I just... Sorry, I'm always getting mixed up. Sure. Easy mistake to make.
00:17:26And what's your anniversary date? March 15th. March 15th? All right. Thank you.
00:17:36Uh, that's it? Yes, Mr. Thornton. I have everything I need. I'll report back to the judges.
00:17:43Oh, wait. This. How did we do in there? It was pretty bad. Look,
00:17:57I'm the son of James Thornton. I know who you are. Okay.
00:18:03Okay. You want to bribe me? Yes. I can't be bribed. Here's one million dollars.
00:18:16Two million dollars. Right.
00:18:22Three million dollars. It's tempting, but like I said, you can't bribe me. Please.
00:18:28Can you just give us one more week to prepare? I really want to be with this woman. She means the
00:18:33world to me. She saved my life. I'm not going to take your money, but I'll give you one week.
00:18:38Make it count. Thank you. Next time, I want to see some genuine affection between you two.
00:18:43If anything seems a bit off, your game's up. Of course. And one more thing. I can tell you
00:18:50two haven't had sex yet. I'm that good, Mr. Daniel. Don't try and fool me.
00:19:00She gave us another chance. Oh, my God. We have one week to get our story straight.
00:19:06Thank you, Daniel. You've been very, very helpful today.
00:19:25Now, I wanted to make my first Christmas special, so I did a little digging and I found this.
00:19:32This tree is amazing.
00:19:39What happened? Let me have a look.
00:20:01Um, I have a festive gift for you two.
00:20:19Wow. Jess, you look gorgeous.
00:20:23And then I told him that's not how you negotiate.
00:20:53Maybe. Maybe not.
00:21:23And that is how you negotiate.
00:21:33I don't like that.
00:21:47Stop. Hold on. I got this.
00:22:23Okay.
00:22:46I've seen this before in the magazine. It looks like one of those, um,
00:22:54family watches. Is it real?
00:22:59No.
00:23:04You wear a fake watch? Yeah.
00:23:16I'm so happy, Jess.
00:23:20There's also something I need to tell you about your mom.
00:23:39Oh, my God. Did I just sleep with Daniel last night?
00:23:42I told him it would only be a contract marriage.
00:23:49Good morning. This is the most beautiful morning that I've ever had.
00:23:57Daniel, I'm so sorry about last night. It was,
00:24:02it wasn't supposed to happen, and I promise it will never happen again.
00:24:08She didn't mean it. Oh, Jessica, last night was amazing.
00:24:12Uh, yeah, Jess, uh, I get it. It was, uh, it was a one-time thing.
00:24:22Yeah, just like, just a one-time thing. Yeah.
00:24:27Anyway, it's, uh, your big day today. You're the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:24:34Thank you for the reminder.
00:24:37But now that you mention it, I'm really scared. Oh, no, Jess, I didn't mean it like that.
00:24:43What I was meant to say is, I'm gonna help you.
00:24:52I don't know what to do, Mother. That bitch is kicking us out.
00:24:55We still have a chance. That bastard child needs a unanimous vote from the board to be
00:24:59chosen as the next CEO. So we just need a board member to back this up.
00:25:04So we just need a board member to back this up. I will call Richard. Everyone respects Richard's
00:25:09vote, and I will make sure he doesn't vote for her. You should not dig up all the dirt I can
00:25:14find on him. You go girl. These clothes are beautiful, but, uh, very expensive.
00:25:32Like this one, that is nine thousand dollars. Jess, don't worry about it. It's on me.
00:25:40Look at it as, uh, my first gift to my wife. Daniel, I can't let you pay for this.
00:25:46Look, Jess, you're gonna be a CEO, which means you've got to look the part. Trust me,
00:25:51it's an investment. Mr. Thornton, welcome back. How can I assist you today?
00:25:57Come here a lot? Uh, no. Well, of course, Mr. Thornton owns this store.
00:26:02Uh, Jess, why don't you try this one on? You'll look great in it.
00:26:10Wow, Jess, you look amazing. You think so? Yeah. This is exactly what a CEO would wear.
00:26:19Absolutely. Great choice. We'll take this one. Something in your mind?
00:26:25Well, it's probably nothing, but it's just that clerk seemed very fond of you.
00:26:30Oh, uh, being friendly is a part of my job. Okay.
00:26:40So that's how you got your lawyer, huh? Now that you mention it,
00:26:46maybe she was a little friendly, but we got a discount.
00:26:49What a slut.
00:26:53Trust me, Jess, you can do this. Yeah, but what if they don't accept me?
00:26:58They will. Trust me. Just speak from the heart. Show your true self.
00:27:03Look at you two little lovebirds.
00:27:08What the fuck?
00:27:10Ted, we're going to talk about this later. Okay. You go in. I'll meet you in there soon, okay?
00:27:21Good luck in there, sis. You're gonna need it. You don't have the votes.
00:27:29I'm gonna go.
00:27:29I know my background doesn't seem very typical of a CEO, but I built myself from the bottom up.
00:27:35Miller Corporation is a leader in tech and services, reaching industries from healthcare
00:27:43to energy. We have over 10,000 employees, and we're the only company in the world
00:27:49that has a CEO. We're the only company in the world that has a CEO, and we're the only company
00:27:56to energy. We have over 10,000 employees worldwide who've worked hard to build this
00:28:03company from the ground up, and I was one of them. I know them, and I believe that I can
00:28:08help lead this company to become everyone's company. Let's proceed to the vote. All in favor?
00:28:19Robert lost his damn mind. He picked a secret child to be the CEO only because of his guilty
00:28:24conscience. Richard, if I may? I'm not done talking. You can't lead us, and you're not
00:28:31getting my vote. Richard, if I may speak? Go ahead, but I won't change my mind.
00:28:40Sorry for interrupting everyone, but I have something important to share with you all today.
00:28:44Who the hell are you? Well, Richard, I'm the person who's going to expose you.
00:28:49What did you just say? How do I say this? Uh, you're a sex pervert. What?
00:28:58You see, everyone, this file contains multiple sexual harassment lawsuits against Richard over
00:29:05the past 30 years. Some of them also have ongoing lawsuits. They're all just allegations,
00:29:12and they've all been settled. I'm innocent. We've also got in contact with some of the victims,
00:29:16and they're willing to come forward and testify. Actually, I have not finished yet.
00:29:20You're also stealing money from the company, and we have financial records to prove it.
00:29:29The evidence is clear. He's guilty. Okay, then, let's all vote for Richard
00:29:36Donnell's immediate suspension. All in favor?
00:29:43We have 15 votes. The board has decided Richard Donnell is officially removed from his position.
00:29:50Security, escort him out immediately. I know my way.
00:29:58And all in favor of appointing Jessica Miller as the new CEO.
00:30:07I'm sorry I was late. I had to make sure I had enough evidence to mail.
00:30:20No, don't be sorry, Daniel. That was so worth the wait.
00:30:25This is not over. You'll see.
00:30:28How's packing going, Lisa? You're about to be evicted soon.
00:30:36She won again, that bitch. I know. It's so unfair. Do we have a guest?
00:30:41Lisa, honey, I've been trying to reach you. Why haven't you returned my calls?
00:30:46I've been busy. Busy? Even with Jessica?
00:30:50How did you know? Oh, I know. I think I know how to help you take it down.
00:30:54Again. No use to me anymore, Adrian. I only needed you to help me get rid of Jessica.
00:31:01To the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:31:06Well, I couldn't have done it without you, Daniel.
00:31:08I also have another Christmas surprise for you.
00:31:12Who are you calling?
00:31:16Is it? Yes, Jess. It's your mother, Clara.
00:31:19Oh, my God, Mom. Oh, Jessica, you're a grown woman now.
00:31:24The Miller family threatened to kill you, Jess. I had no option but to vanish.
00:31:30Oh, Mom, it's okay. It's okay. You didn't do anything wrong. I'll
00:31:34bring you back into the country. I promise. Daniel, how did you find her?
00:31:40I have a few powerful friends. They did me a favor. But I'll leave you two alone.
00:31:50Two more, please.
00:31:57Daniel. Adrian.
00:32:01Long time no see, buddy. Oh, my God. How long has it been?
00:32:05Ten years. Ten years. Oh, my God.
00:32:08The last time I must have seen you was at law school.
00:32:11Yep. Go Reds.
00:32:14Go Reds. What are you doing here?
00:32:17I'm just in town to run some errands. Just want to come in for a quick bite.
00:32:22Nice, man. Nice. I saw your date earlier. She looks pretty.
00:32:26Yeah, my wife. Your wife?
00:32:29Yeah, Jess. You're married?
00:32:30Yes. Yeah, you have to introduce me to her.
00:32:33Come on. Let's go say hi. Come and say hello.
00:32:35It's good to see you. Good to see you, too, man.
00:32:38Jess, I want you to meet an old friend of mine. Adrian, this is Jess. Jess, this is Adrian.
00:32:43We went to law school together. I don't want to see him.
00:32:54I don't want to see him. You two know each other?
00:32:59Yes, Daniel. I was her first boyfriend.
00:33:05Come on, Jess. Don't you miss me?
00:33:07I don't want to see you anymore. You know you still love me, Jess.
00:33:12No, I don't.
00:33:16I think you should leave, Adrian.
00:33:18Okay, Daniel, relax. Now.
00:33:26I'm leaving.
00:33:30She knows she's lying.
00:33:35Boss, Adrian Westley now represents the Cyclists together. They want to protect the world.
00:33:40I should have known. What else?
00:33:43Adrian also used me, Jessica. Actually, he's the one who sabotaged Jessica's
00:33:47immigration paperwork. It caused all this trouble.
00:33:54That son of a bitch. We need to win this war. Do whatever it takes.
00:34:06Daniel?
00:34:08Sorry. Did I wake you?
00:34:10No, can you join me in bed, please?
00:34:17You sure?
00:34:22I just, I wanted to apologize for earlier. The restaurant.
00:34:30I got a bit carried away. Jess, you don't need to apologize.
00:34:34Adrian's an asshole. He's just trying to do it to get under your skin.
00:34:38I did care for Adrian once, but he just destroyed everything we had.
00:34:44I want you to know that I'm here because of you. And you're the only one who I love. No one else.
00:34:56I love you too, Jess. And I'm not going anywhere.
00:35:22Good morning, husband.
00:35:24Morning, wife. Are you ready for your big day as the new CEO?
00:35:28If only you were with me.
00:35:48You're going to do great today.
00:35:57Jess, here's your coffee.
00:36:02What's wrong?
00:36:03No, it's just, it's this job. It's all so new to me.
00:36:07Okay, calm down. Remember, you're the CEO, which means you're the boss.
00:36:12Yeah, but I don't know how to be a boss.
00:36:16Hey, Jess. Look at you sitting in the big chair now.
00:36:20Oh, Giovanna, I am so happy you're here.
00:36:26You must be Daniel. Jessica's been talking about you for days.
00:36:32I'm flattered.
00:36:33I really wish you could be here with me, G. It's exhausting.
00:36:36Oh, at least you have a job, Jess. I've been looking for work for the past two months.
00:36:41Jess, do you like Janabee?
00:36:45Of course.
00:36:46We've been besties since forever.
00:36:49Yeah, what kind of question is that?
00:36:51Well, why don't you use your CEO power and hire Diana?
00:36:58Oh, I know what you mean.
00:37:00I don't understand.
00:37:01How would you like to come work for me?
00:37:07Of course.
00:37:08For me?
00:37:09Of course.
00:37:11Okay, then. My first order as CEO.
00:37:16Gianna, you are hired as my personal assistant.
00:37:20Oh, my God, Jess. Thank you so much.
00:37:23See? Being a boss is easy. You can do whatever you want.
00:37:34Oh, my God.
00:37:36What's wrong?
00:37:37The company's stock prices are dropping like crazy. What is happening?
00:37:42This isn't me. Stocks are down.
00:37:45Well, well, well.
00:37:47Looks like things aren't going so well.
00:37:50What did you do, Lisa?
00:37:51I asked Richard and some of the other investors to sell their stocks.
00:37:56The board members are not going to be happy about the stock prices, Jessica.
00:37:59What do you want?
00:38:00Resign as CEO or I will destroy this company.
00:38:05No way.
00:38:06Okay. Then I will destroy this company.
00:38:10Jessica, the board members are asking to meet with you. They're angry.
00:38:18What are you going to do, Jess?
00:38:20Okay, I'll meet with the board.
00:38:23Wait, Jess. Don't go. Take a seat.
00:38:27What is it?
00:38:28Lisa, are you sure the stock prices are going down?
00:38:32Because to me, they seem to be going up.
00:38:34And up?
00:38:36That's impossible. You would need at least a billion dollars.
00:38:40I guess anything's possible these days.
00:38:42God damn it!
00:38:44God, she's annoying.
00:38:49No, you must be my lucky star.
00:38:57Daniel.
00:39:00Jenna.
00:39:01I know who you are, Daniel. You're the son of James Thornton.
00:39:05How'd you find out? My identity is meant to be a secret.
00:39:08I used to work for your father.
00:39:10Please don't tell Jess. I'll pay you. How much do you want?
00:39:13I don't want your money. I care for my friend.
00:39:16Actually, your father fired me because I tried to help Jessica.
00:39:20I'm sorry, Jenna.
00:39:22It's okay. I just want to know why.
00:39:26She hates my family. I have to lie to her.
00:39:29She hates your family, but she loves you.
00:39:33I can see that.
00:39:35You really think so?
00:39:36Yes.
00:39:37I love her, too. She's the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:39:43That's good to hear. Please protect her.
00:39:53Daniel, it's my mom.
00:39:56Adrian threatened her.
00:40:02Adrian threatened my mom on the phone.
00:40:04He said he was going to block her from entering the country.
00:40:07What should we do?
00:40:10Jess, I don't want you to worry about it.
00:40:12I'm going to make sure your mom gets here safely.
00:40:26Ted, I need you to make sure Jessica's mom gets here safely.
00:40:32Book her on the first flight out tomorrow.
00:40:34Got it, boss. She'll be here in town the day after tomorrow.
00:40:37Good.
00:40:44Jess has been taken care of.
00:40:46Your mom's going to be here the day after tomorrow.
00:40:49Thank you, Daniel.
00:40:52But I'm... I'm still scared.
00:40:55I just... I need a day off.
00:40:57I love the sound of that.
00:40:59What did you have in mind?
00:41:01I was thinking...
00:41:05I want to buy a house.
00:41:14So, do you like this place?
00:41:18It's amazing.
00:41:20But, Jess, I appreciate the gesture, but you don't need to buy me a house.
00:41:25No, no, I insist.
00:41:29You've done so much to help me.
00:41:32Besides, we can live together here.
00:41:34Mr. Thornton.
00:41:36Hi.
00:41:36Your father is here.
00:41:37Are you meeting him here?
00:41:43Well, I've never met your parents, so I'm pretty excited to meet an in-law.
00:41:51Oh, is... is that him?
00:41:54Come on, let's go say hi.
00:41:56Jess, wait.
00:41:57Uh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:41:59Um, I might not have told my dad about you and our marriage.
00:42:05Why?
00:42:05Uh, because he has a heart condition.
00:42:10I think it's best you stay here.
00:42:12Okay.
00:42:14I'll just stay here, then.
00:42:19Good.
00:42:23Dad?
00:42:24Dad?
00:42:26What the hell?
00:42:26Jessica's here.
00:42:27She can't see her face.
00:42:28Don't take them off.
00:42:31I want to talk to you about Ashley, Daniel.
00:42:37Why hasn't Daniel told his father about me and our wedding?
00:42:40Ashley, really?
00:42:42Not today.
00:42:44And what is this shirt you're wearing?
00:42:47Mother insisted I wear it at this charity event in New England.
00:42:51Right.
00:42:52Said it makes me look more grounded.
00:42:55And approachable.
00:42:58And don't go changing our subject.
00:43:00I want to discuss our agreement.
00:43:02I give you Clara and you marry Ashley.
00:43:09Why does he look so nervous?
00:43:12Am I not good enough?
00:43:16Do we have to talk about this right now?
00:43:18I held up my end of the bargain, Daniel.
00:43:21I want this deal done now.
00:43:23Actually, Clara isn't safe yet.
00:43:25They said Miller might try and sabotage everything.
00:43:28This is why you don't mess with the Miller family.
00:43:31You should have left it alone.
00:43:32All I'm asking is just a few more days.
00:43:35She is coming to town in a few days.
00:43:37What?
00:43:39Jess!
00:43:40Jess.
00:43:49Dad, this is Jess.
00:43:51Jess, this is Dad.
00:43:53You can call him Jimmy.
00:43:54Jimmy?
00:43:58I'm Jimmy, sweetie.
00:43:59It's lovely to meet you, Jimmy.
00:44:01And can I just say that is a lovely Hawaiian shirt.
00:44:05It really, really suits you.
00:44:06Well, thank you, Jessica.
00:44:08It's one I'm fond of.
00:44:12So who is Ashley?
00:44:14I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:44:17Oh, she's just an old family friend.
00:44:21Oh.
00:44:22They grew up and went to law school together.
00:44:25And she had Daniel's first kiss.
00:44:28Oh.
00:44:30Her wedding is approaching soon, and I'd like Daniel to attend.
00:44:34Dad!
00:44:35I'm reminiscing about the good old days.
00:44:37No, it's fine.
00:44:38Honestly, it's lovely to hear about Daniel's childhood and more about his life.
00:44:42You bastard child!
00:44:44Shh.
00:44:48Well, well.
00:44:49What do we have here?
00:44:52You think you can afford this place?
00:44:54You're about to lose this battle and be out on the streets soon.
00:44:59Who's this clown?
00:45:02Looks like he belongs in a circus.
00:45:04How dare you, Kristen!
00:45:06How do you know my name?
00:45:08And don't you dare call me by my first name.
00:45:10That's enough!
00:45:11Oh.
00:45:13Don't talk to my father like that.
00:45:16Oh.
00:45:18He's your father.
00:45:21How does it feel to be a father of such a loser?
00:45:24Don't talk to my family like that.
00:45:27Your family.
00:45:28Your family suck, Jessica.
00:45:30Especially your mother.
00:45:32The home-wrecking tramp.
00:45:35A whore.
00:45:42How dare you slap me?
00:45:44That is enough, Kristen.
00:45:47You're not going to lay a hand on my wife.
00:45:52Daddies, you need to leave, now.
00:45:56Can't throw us out, will you?
00:45:57We're not leaving, we're leaving!
00:46:02I don't want to be here.
00:46:04This is going to ruin your reputation.
00:46:07No, no, no!
00:46:08You need to leave. Now.
00:46:09You can't throw us out. We're buyers.
00:46:11We're not going anywhere.
00:46:12The owner of this property has banned you from coming here.
00:46:15You need to leave now or I will call security.
00:46:19You will regret this.
00:46:23I've heard that a thousand times.
00:46:25Now leave.
00:46:35Thank you, Jessica.
00:46:36You stood up for me.
00:46:38Well, we're family, Jimmy.
00:46:40It's what I'm supposed to do.
00:46:44Well, I appreciate it.
00:46:47You're a nice girl.
00:46:49You found a good wife, son.
00:46:53Dad, about Ashley's wedding.
00:46:56I don't think I'm going to be able to make it.
00:46:58I'll look into it. I'll speak to her about it.
00:47:00Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:47:02Daniel can still attend. It's not a problem.
00:47:04Jess, I just want to focus on you and I.
00:47:07I'm not the jealous type.
00:47:09Plus, I don't want you to miss your first crush's wedding.
00:47:13Well, you decide, Daniel.
00:47:16Oh, there's a long party.
00:47:18You two want to come? It's in three hours.
00:47:21Yeah.
00:47:23Dad, we'll go.
00:47:24Great.
00:47:26I'll see you there.
00:47:35Well, this place is extremely high class.
00:47:40Well, my dad has a few rich friends.
00:47:46And James Thornton is here.
00:47:49I know you don't want to see him.
00:47:51But Jess, my dad's here.
00:47:54He's going to join us later.
00:47:55Okay.
00:47:57Ah, the bidding's about to start.
00:47:58Oh, the bitch is here!
00:48:00I know.
00:48:01Don't worry, we can teach him a lesson.
00:48:03Yeah, how?
00:48:04Let's see if Daniel can handle a little humiliation.
00:48:08With money.
00:48:09Dude, with money? What money?
00:48:10I haven't gotten my inheritance back yet.
00:48:12Yeah, I know.
00:48:13Your mother spoke to Richie.
00:48:14He said he's willing to donate some cash
00:48:16if we make Jessica look ugly.
00:48:18Oh.
00:48:20You're the best.
00:48:23You're the best.
00:48:25You're the best.
00:48:26You're the best.
00:48:28I'm not.
00:48:33Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this evening's auction.
00:48:36We have for you the last dance.
00:48:39Bid starts at one million dollars.
00:48:44One million dollars!
00:48:47Two million dollars, right here.
00:48:52Three million dollars!
00:48:57Four million dollars!
00:49:00What are they doing? Where did they get that money from?
00:49:02I don't know, but they're definitely trying to humiliate you here.
00:49:05Really?
00:49:06But I don't even care about this bid.
00:49:09Five million dollars!
00:49:11Daniel, what are you doing?
00:49:12Don't worry, Jess, I've got this.
00:49:17Five million dollars!
00:49:18Daniel, what are you doing?
00:49:20Don't worry, Jess, I've got this.
00:49:22I got six million dollars.
00:49:25Cash.
00:49:26Boom.
00:49:28Can't compete with that.
00:49:29Cash. Boom.
00:49:30Watch this.
00:49:31Seven million dollars!
00:49:34Eight million dollars!
00:49:36Did that just happen?
00:49:37Ten million dollars!
00:49:41Awesome.
00:49:43Ten million.
00:49:44Once.
00:49:45Twice.
00:49:46Sold.
00:49:47To the gentleman there.
00:49:53Where did you get that money from?
00:49:57Well, do you remember me telling you about I have a powerful friend?
00:50:02Yeah, the one who helped me find my mother.
00:50:05Jessica.
00:50:06James Thornton.
00:50:08In the flesh.
00:50:09Or Mrs. Thornton.
00:50:11I want to apologize to you.
00:50:13I am truly sorry for everything I did to you and your mother.
00:50:17And I'm trying my best to make amends.
00:50:20Well, I don't know what to say.
00:50:24Jess, I know it's a lot to handle.
00:50:26You've just got to trust me.
00:50:27Yeah, but why didn't you just tell me in the first place, Daniel?
00:50:30Jess!
00:50:32Jessica!
00:50:33Don't follow me!
00:50:37Oh, this could get interesting.
00:50:40Uh-huh.
00:50:51Look who's alone.
00:50:53No, just leave me alone.
00:50:55You're never going to win against James Thornton.
00:50:57He's my mother's best friend.
00:50:59You're going to lose everything.
00:51:00Poor baby.
00:51:01Still played by the big boys.
00:51:03James Thornton and his son have been playing you all along.
00:51:07What did you just say?
00:51:09James Thornton and his son?
00:51:11Wait, Jess, you didn't know?
00:51:12Daniel Thornton is his son.
00:51:17Oh, my God.
00:51:18I didn't know that.
00:51:19But now that I do...
00:51:22That's enough!
00:51:24Oh, excuse me, Mr. Thornton.
00:51:26Crown Princess of the Thornton family.
00:51:30This man has been lying to you all along.
00:51:32Poor little girl's got no one to trust.
00:51:34Both of you, get out of here.
00:51:38Okay.
00:51:45Jess, I've been trying to tell you.
00:51:46Am I a joke to you?
00:51:48No.
00:51:49What do you mean?
00:51:50You and your father.
00:51:52You and your father.
00:51:54You and your father.
00:51:56You and your father.
00:51:58You and your father.
00:52:00You've been playing me this whole time.
00:52:03No.
00:52:04I've been standing by your side all the time, Jess.
00:52:06I can't...
00:52:07I can't trust you.
00:52:08You lied to me.
00:52:10You're right.
00:52:11You're right.
00:52:15I have been hiding things from you.
00:52:18You know what I haven't told you yet?
00:52:21Another big secret.
00:52:24Are you sure you want to hear this?
00:52:29Another big secret is...
00:52:31The first time we met isn't what you think it is.
00:52:34It was five years ago.
00:52:36Five years ago?
00:52:38Yes.
00:52:39At a party.
00:52:41I was drunk and I fell in the pool.
00:52:51Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:52:53You're alive.
00:52:57I was drowning and you saved my life.
00:53:00But you won't remember that.
00:53:03But I will forever be grateful for what you did for me that day.
00:53:06That...
00:53:08That was you?
00:53:09Yes.
00:53:10My father forbid me from seeing you.
00:53:12But I didn't care.
00:53:14I confronted him.
00:53:16You can't tell me what to do, Dad!
00:53:18You can't stop me from seeing her!
00:53:19I'm doing what's best for you, Daniel.
00:53:21That girl and all her family are nothing but trouble.
00:53:25And then he decided to tell me about everything he did to you and your mom.
00:53:28And I felt so guilty.
00:53:30It's okay.
00:53:34I was ashamed to approach you.
00:53:35I just didn't know how to face you without making things worse.
00:53:38And I thought the best thing to do was just be here with you.
00:53:41No, I know.
00:53:42And then I heard about you being deported and I just couldn't let that happen.
00:53:45Well...
00:53:48I saved you.
00:53:49And...
00:53:50You saved me.
00:53:53Because we...
00:53:54Just belong together.
00:53:58Ew.
00:53:59Corny.
00:54:02But just...
00:54:05No more secrets.
00:54:07Okay?
00:54:09I promise.
00:54:11No more secrets.
00:54:19No more secrets.
00:54:27You're up early.
00:54:28Yeah.
00:54:29I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport.
00:54:31Better sooner than later.
00:54:36Giannis just texted me.
00:54:37She said that I have my first weekly exec meeting this morning.
00:54:42I should postpone it.
00:54:43No.
00:54:44You should definitely go to that.
00:54:46You need to look good in front of your board.
00:54:47Really?
00:54:48I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport and I'll bring her straight to the office.
00:54:52Thanks.
00:54:53You're the best.
00:54:58Well, that went better than I thought.
00:54:59Don't underestimate yourself, Jess.
00:55:01You did great.
00:55:06Heya, Jess.
00:55:07What are you doing here?
00:55:12What are you doing here?
00:55:13I just wanted to share with you some interesting facts about your dear husband, Daniel Thornton.
00:55:19Jonah, can you wait outside a moment?
00:55:24Okay, I'm telling you now.
00:55:26Whatever bad, made-up facts that you've come to tell me about Daniel is not gonna work.
00:55:32Because Daniel already told me everything.
00:55:34Everything?
00:55:35Are you so sure?
00:55:37Yeah.
00:55:38Him and his father came clean about everything.
00:55:39There is nothing more to hide.
00:55:41And did they also tell you Daniel is supposed to marry his childhood sweetheart?
00:55:44What?
00:55:45Ashley Wimbledon.
00:55:47Heiress to the famous Wimbledon family.
00:55:49Ring any bells?
00:55:50Ashley.
00:55:54Ashley.
00:55:56Who is Ashley?
00:55:58I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:56:00Oh, she's just an old childhood friend.
00:56:04They grew up and went to law school together.
00:56:07And she had Daniel's first kiss.
00:56:12He did mention Ashley.
00:56:17He did?
00:56:18Yeah, but he's not gonna marry her.
00:56:20I remember that conversation.
00:56:25Daniel's picking my mother up from the airport himself.
00:56:28I'll be seeing her soon.
00:56:30What are you laughing about?
00:56:32Nothing.
00:56:36Daniel is bringing her back, babe.
00:56:39You're not gonna see her.
00:56:42After years of separation with your mother, Daniel didn't let you go along with him to meet with her?
00:56:48And what kind of a husband does that?
00:56:50I had an early meeting this morning and Daniel didn't want me to worry.
00:56:54So easily manipulated, Jess.
00:56:57Just like old times.
00:56:59Yeah, well, I don't believe a word you say.
00:57:03Daniel isn't gonna bring her back.
00:57:06Care to find out together?
00:57:12Are you sure everything is taken care of?
00:57:14Yes. You're free to live in this country.
00:57:17Clara, I also want to apologize for everything you went through years ago.
00:57:20I'm deeply sorry.
00:57:22Well, you did bring me back here.
00:57:24Right now, I just want to see my daughter.
00:57:26We'll go to her.
00:57:28Not so fast, Danny boy.
00:57:32You're too late, Lisa.
00:57:34Clara's here to claim Robert's inheritance back.
00:57:36Oh, I don't think so.
00:57:38Agents, do your thing.
00:57:39Wait.
00:57:40What?
00:57:41This is a mistake.
00:57:42No.
00:57:43Clara's got past customs.
00:57:44She can stay.
00:57:45Sweetheart, you really think those little documents can stop this?
00:57:48I don't think so.
00:57:49Back off, Lisa.
00:57:50Watch it, pretty boy.
00:57:52Jess!
00:57:53Jess!
00:57:54Mom!
00:57:55Mom!
00:57:56What are you doing?
00:57:57Where are they taking my mother?
00:57:58Mom, I'll bring her back, I promise.
00:58:00Just stay strong.
00:58:01Oh, sis, it looks like you've been screwed by the Thorntons again.
00:58:03Adrienne, you sabotaged this.
00:58:05You'll pay for this.
00:58:07I told you he's not bringing her back.
00:58:09You said everything was taken care of.
00:58:11Jess, it's not me.
00:58:12It's them.
00:58:13You're lying, Daniel.
00:58:14Why don't you ask him about that thing we talked about?
00:58:16Jess.
00:58:19Jess.
00:58:20He said that you were going to marry Ashley.
00:58:22Okay, so it's true.
00:58:23Jess, can we just talk about this?
00:58:26No.
00:58:27No, no, no, no.
00:58:28Thing is, Daniel, you promised me no more secrets.
00:58:31I can't trust you anymore.
00:58:33Jess!
00:58:34It's just...
00:58:35Kate, it's just...
00:58:36It looks like you lost, Daniel.
00:58:38You never get in their back.
00:58:59Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:59:06Huh?
00:59:25Dad, what's the problem with Clara?
00:59:27Her paperwork was false.
00:59:28You're right, boss.
00:59:29I checked with customs and the USCIS.
00:59:32I can confirm that she illegally entered the country.
00:59:34I don't care about her.
00:59:35Not anymore.
00:59:39Agents, do your thing.
00:59:40Wait.
00:59:41What?
00:59:42This is a mistake.
00:59:43No.
00:59:44Jess.
00:59:45Jess, baby!
00:59:46Mom!
00:59:49The ICE agents weren't real.
00:59:51They were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara.
00:59:53Oh, don't think.
00:59:57You're right, boss.
00:59:58We found out those people want her.
01:00:00What should we do?
01:00:01I need to find out where they took them.
01:00:03Use all our contacts.
01:00:04I'm not gonna let them get away with this.
01:00:06On it, boss.
01:00:14Well, well, well, Clara.
01:00:16I bet you didn't expect to see me again, did you?
01:00:19We finally have what it takes to get it all back?
01:00:22Don't look at me like that.
01:00:23You disgust me.
01:00:24You disgust me.
01:00:30Jess, we need to talk.
01:00:32I don't want to talk to you.
01:00:33It's about your mom.
01:00:34I think she was kidnapped by Adrian and Lisa's people.
01:00:36The ICE agents weren't real.
01:00:38What are you talking about?
01:00:40I spoke to Ted.
01:00:41He told me that Clara illegally came into the country.
01:00:44It was a setup.
01:00:46Do you actually expect me to believe that?
01:00:48After all the lies?
01:00:50You're so full of shit, Daniel!
01:00:55Hello?
01:00:58Hello, bastard child.
01:00:59Yes, we have your mother.
01:01:01And if you ever want to see her again,
01:01:03follow the directions to the address that we just sent you.
01:01:06And don't bring anyone.
01:01:07Especially Daniel.
01:01:11Let me come with you.
01:01:12No, they want me alone.
01:01:13I don't want to risk-
01:01:14Jess.
01:01:15Don't follow me.
01:01:16I will not let you do this alone.
01:01:17Don't.
01:01:23Mom?
01:01:24Bastard child, over here.
01:01:26You let her go.
01:01:27This has gone on far enough.
01:01:29Not so fast, sis.
01:01:31This is only the beginning.
01:01:36You sign this,
01:01:38we let her go.
01:01:40And what is it?
01:01:42An agreement signing everything over to us.
01:01:44The house.
01:01:46The company.
01:01:47Everything.
01:01:55It's signed.
01:01:57Now let her go.
01:01:59God, you are so naive, sis.
01:02:02What more do you want?
01:02:04Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.
01:02:11Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.
01:02:15Wait.
01:02:19That's better.
01:02:27Now bark like a dog.
01:02:32Come on.
01:02:37That's enough, Kristen.
01:02:38Daniel!
01:02:41We're getting out of here, Mom.
01:02:48Let's get her out of here.
01:02:49Come on, let's go.
01:02:51Come on, Daniel!
01:02:55I can't.
01:02:57We need to finish this.
01:02:58Mom, we gotta go.
01:02:59Come on.
01:03:00Daniel!
01:03:06Jess.
01:03:09Don't try and talk to the police.
01:03:11They're on their way.
01:03:12Jess.
01:03:13I'm so sorry.
01:03:14Why are you apologizing?
01:03:16Just don't move.
01:03:26The doctor said it was nothing serious,
01:03:28so you'll be out of here soon.
01:03:30Jess, I just want to apologize.
01:03:32I'm so sorry.
01:03:34Daniel, what are you apologizing for?
01:03:37You saved my mom.
01:03:38You saved us.
01:03:41Hello again, Mr. Thornton.
01:03:43Officer, you're here.
01:03:45Yes.
01:03:46You promised me last week we'd get that interview done.
01:03:50Officer, my husband is injured.
01:03:53He's literally lying in bed.
01:03:55Well, that doesn't change the requirements.
01:03:57Jess, it's okay.
01:04:00We can do the interview.
01:04:03We can do the interview.
01:04:06Are you insane?
01:04:07We haven't rehearsed this.
01:04:09Jess, when you see,
01:04:12we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas.
01:04:14There's no better time to do this.
01:04:16You're right.
01:04:19We're ready, officer.
01:04:21Let's start with the question I asked you last week.
01:04:24When did you two first meet?
01:04:25Five years and four months ago.
01:04:27I don't understand.
01:04:29I don't understand.
01:04:30Last time you said it was six months ago
01:04:33when the other one said it was eight months ago.
01:04:35We lied, officer.
01:04:37But it was five years ago.
01:04:39At a pool party.
01:04:41And we had our first kiss when we first met.
01:04:45It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:04:47But for some reason,
01:04:49I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:04:54It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:04:56But for some reason,
01:04:58I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:05:01Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother.
01:05:04There's nothing more he needs to do to prove his love for me.
01:05:07One last question.
01:05:09How frequently have you two spent the night together in the past week?
01:05:18Relax.
01:05:19I can tell it's been at least three times.
01:05:22Right, well, that's my interview done.
01:05:24You two are quite the couple.
01:05:26Thank you, officer.
01:05:28Daniel.
01:05:29Daniel!
01:05:30She's coming!
01:05:31Who's coming?
01:05:38Your fiancé.
01:05:39That's who.
01:05:44Your fiancé.
01:05:45That's who.
01:05:47Ashley.
01:05:48I guess I'm not done yet.
01:05:50You betrayed my family's trust, Daniel.
01:05:53Ashley.
01:05:54Please.
01:05:55Please.
01:05:56Can't we talk about this?
01:05:57So you're Jessica Miller, hm?
01:06:00Adrian's told me all about you.
01:06:02I don't know what Adrian told you,
01:06:05but it's not what you think.
01:06:07Daniel was supposed to marry me.
01:06:09And then you just waltzed in and ruined everything.
01:06:13Ashley.
01:06:14Our engagement was long over before Jessica came to the picture.
01:06:20Oh.
01:06:21I see.
01:06:22You think this is over.
01:06:25I'm the heiress of the Wimbledon family.
01:06:28The Thornton name is as good as ruined.
01:06:32You can't do that, Ashley.
01:06:37Watch me.
01:06:42You're not the only heiress here.
01:06:47I own Miller Empire.
01:06:50And if you come for the Thorntons,
01:06:53the Miller Empire is gonna come for you so hard.
01:07:01You've got guts, Jessica.
01:07:04I like you.
01:07:07I gotta tell you, I didn't expect that.
01:07:10This is so much better than watching TV.
01:07:12Glad to see you've replaced me with someone with a little fire, Daniel.
01:07:20I always knew Daniel didn't love me,
01:07:22but he was too afraid of his father to ever go after his true love.
01:07:27But I guess I'm happy
01:07:30that he's found someone who wants the same things as him.
01:07:35So...
01:07:37that's it?
01:07:39That's it.
01:07:43Enjoy your happy ending, Daniel.
01:07:49Andrea, bring the car around.
01:07:53Did that actually just happen?
01:07:55Yeah.
01:07:56Wow.
01:07:57You two really don't let anyone or anything get in the way of true love.
01:08:02I didn't see that coming.
01:08:06This is all your fault, Mom.
01:08:07If you wouldn't have been so reckless, maybe we wouldn't be in this mess.
01:08:10Don't put all the blame on me.
01:08:11You're just as much a part of this as I am.
01:08:13Where is Ashley?
01:08:14She should be here by now.
01:08:16Miss me?
01:08:18Where have you been?
01:08:19Just tying up a few loose ends.
01:08:21Don't worry about it.
01:08:22Everything's going according to plan.
01:08:24Plan?
01:08:25What plan? Everything's falling apart.
01:08:37What did you do, Adrian?
01:08:39Well, me myself?
01:08:40I've done nothing illegal.
01:08:42You two, on the other hand...
01:08:44that's a different story.
01:08:45You set us up!
01:08:47I'm just ensuring my own safety.
01:08:49After all, I kept my hands clean.
01:08:56You're not going to get away with this, asshole!
01:08:59I already have.
01:09:07I remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter.
01:09:10It used to be a real family home back then.
01:09:13Then things just went south.
01:09:15Things will be fine again, Mom, I promise.
01:09:18We'll turn this into a good family house.
01:09:20No more hatred.
01:09:22No more backstabbing.
01:09:24I missed you every single day, Jess.
01:09:26I'm so sorry for everything both of us had to go through.
01:09:32Jessica?
01:09:33Dad?
01:09:35I am so sorry for everything that I've done to you both.
01:09:39I was wrong.
01:09:41And I know I can never fully make up for it.
01:09:44But I want to try.
01:09:45James, you kept us apart for so many years.
01:09:48It's going to be hard to forgive and forget.
01:09:50I know, Clara.
01:09:54Jess, are you alright?
01:09:58Yeah, I know, I'm... I'm fine.
01:10:01I just feel... so nauseous, that's all.
01:10:05Have you been getting any other symptoms, like dizziness or fatigue?
01:10:10Yeah, but I just thought that was from all the stress.
01:10:16Sweetheart, you're pregnant.
01:10:19Really?
01:10:20You're showing all the signs, Jess.
01:10:24We're going to have a baby!
01:10:26Wait, that means I'm going to be a grandpa!
01:10:31Yeah!
01:10:39Daniel, there's something you need to do.
01:10:45What's this?
01:10:46This is a ring your grandma left you.
01:10:49And I think this is the perfect time to use it.
01:10:53Come here.
01:10:54I'm going to do this.
01:10:55Yeah.
01:11:05Jess?
01:11:06Jess!
01:11:09Jess, I know we've only ever spent time together a week during Christmas.
01:11:13But we've been through so much in that time.
01:11:15And over the past five years, all I've wanted to do is be with you.
01:11:19And I've had to endure the pain of that not being possible.
01:11:22I want to spend every waking moment in time with you.
01:11:25What I'm trying to say is, Jess...
01:11:31Will you marry me?
01:11:34For real this time.
01:11:36Yes, Daniel, yes, I will marry you!
01:11:39Really?
01:11:40Yes!
01:11:43Oh!
