00:00No, no, no!
00:02No!
00:06Alright, cut!
00:08Great. Okay, moving on!
00:12Let's go ahead and move on to the next scene.
00:14Hey, we're already on our next shot.
00:16Where are you?
00:18I'm sorry, Julia, but...
00:20I'm not coming.
00:22What?
00:24Hey, Emma, what's wrong?
00:26I need you.
00:28I'm right here. Just tell me where you are.
00:30Julia, we're ready for a take.
00:32Oh, okay. Copy that. Just give me just a minute here.
00:36What's going on? Are you okay?
00:38You know, um...
00:40Never mind.
00:42You should get back to work. I'll be okay.
00:44Are you sure?
00:46Yeah.
00:48Don't worry about me.
00:50Emma?
00:52Hey, Emma!
00:58Alright.
01:00Let's just keep going.
01:06Cut!
01:08That's a picture wrap!
01:16Hey, this is Julia.
01:18Miss Stone, this is Officer Miller
01:20from RCMP.
01:22You were the last person Emma Williams contacted.
01:24Can you confirm
01:26you had a relationship with her?
01:28I'm her best friend. What happened?
01:30I'm sorry to inform you,
01:32Miss Williams is found dead tonight.
01:34It appears she took her own life.
01:36What?
01:52This can't be right.
01:54I'm sorry, ma'am.
01:56The investigation concluded it was a suicide.
01:58I wish there was more we could do.
02:00I grew up with her. I know her.
02:02It would never happen.
02:04She would never do that.
02:06She's...
02:08These are Emma's personal belongings
02:10with a letter addressed specifically to you.
02:20Dear Julia,
02:22I'm sorry I couldn't be there tonight.
02:24Things changed between Benjamin and me.
02:28At first,
02:30he was kind, supportive,
02:32and charming.
02:36Then the lies started.
02:44Small things.
02:46Odd decisions.
02:52Hi.
03:02He was cheating on me.
03:04I should have seen the signs sooner.
03:06When he found out,
03:08I knew he didn't apologize.
03:10He just turned it around
03:12and threatened to tear everything
03:14I'd worked for apart.
03:16He never loved me.
03:18Good morning.
03:20All he wanted
03:22was my wealth, my power,
03:24and I...
03:26I was just blind enough
03:28to give it to him.
03:30Don't blame yourself for my choice.
03:32Hearing your voice in my last moments
03:34made me feel loved.
03:36But now,
03:38I'll be with my parents again,
03:40where I've always longed to be.
03:42Goodbye, Julia.
03:44Love,
03:46Emma.
03:50Dad?
03:56You paid for this.
04:00You paid for this.
04:06Emma, where the hell are you?
04:08I'm done playing games.
04:10This is your last chance.
04:12You cross me again, and you'll regret it.
04:16You're gonna regret everything, Benjamin.
04:20Wow.
04:22So...
04:24I'm not gonna be finishing the shoot this month.
04:26I'm gonna go after Benjamin.
04:28Well, I can finish the shoot.
04:30But what I really want to say is
04:32I just want you to be safe.
04:34I've got a plan.
04:36No one can stop me, not even you.
04:38I'm not here to stop you, okay?
04:40I'm glad you told me.
04:42I just want to help.
04:44Thanks, Evan.
04:46You know,
04:48thanks, Evan.
04:50So what's the plan, director?
04:52Can you arrange an audition?
04:54An audition?
05:04And why the hell is Emma in Canada, huh?
05:06I thought I made sure she couldn't get out of that stock transfer.
05:08Ben, I'm...
05:10I'm worried this could backfire.
05:12You don't get to question me, all right?
05:14Just find out who she's with now.
05:16I don't have much time.
05:18If I don't push right now, I will lose everything.
05:20Clean this mess up.
05:22Emma!
05:44Emma!
05:48Emma!
05:52Emma!
05:56What the hell are you wearing?
05:58Excuse me?
06:00Cut the act, okay?
06:02You've already lost everyone's trust.
06:04And what, you think you can just run away now?
06:06Sir, I think you have me confused with someone else.
06:08Enough, Emma. This isn't the time for games.
06:10All I need you to do,
06:12just transfer the shares.
06:14Now.
06:16I?
06:18I'm not Emma.
06:20Listen.
06:30Don't you dare leave me, you deceitful bastard!
06:32I'll never love again!
06:40So, uh, you are a billionaire
06:42CEO, okay?
06:44So maybe you don't have to be so hysterical.
06:46Get him out of here!
06:50Did she just...
06:54Just a little bit.
06:58So, I'm thinking
07:00this next take
07:02to be more personal.
07:04So, maybe less
07:06mom-like.
07:16She has a strong background.
07:20In Shakespeare.
07:34Is this all we have?
07:36Well, you wanted to stay low profile.
07:38This is no one overly exposed
07:40that Benjamin would recognize.
07:42No, no.
07:45Well, she just
07:47looks just like Emma.
07:49Yeah.
07:51She's only done background work.
07:53Her daughter's sick, she's in the hospital
07:55waiting on surgery, so she hasn't been able
07:57to take any larger roles.
07:59So, no substantial acting experience.
08:01No.
08:03But her reel is super good.
08:05You've got to see her acting.
08:07Well, let's see
08:09what this single mother has to offer.
08:15Ben!
08:17Dinner's ready.
08:19It might be a little bit cold,
08:21but I could heat it up again if you like.
08:23I'm full.
08:32Cut!
08:38I'm sorry, I just...
08:40I keep thinking about how much
08:42I keep thinking about how my husband
08:44abandoned me and my sick daughter.
08:46It's so...
08:48It's too real.
08:50Let me ask you something.
08:52If Emma were pushed
08:54to that breaking point
08:56and took her own life, what would you do?
08:58I wouldn't want to make Ben pay.
09:00I would...
09:02Wait.
09:04So this is true?
09:08So this is true?
09:10Yes.
09:12And I need your help.
09:16I'd love to.
09:18I'd like to take that bastard down myself.
09:20What's your plan?
09:22Cecilia, I'm not just
09:24casting you in this role.
09:26I need you to get close to Benjamin.
09:28Don't worry about your daughter.
09:30I can take care of her.
09:32I don't look anything like Emma.
09:34This is Hollywood, remember?
09:36Come here.
09:40Come here.
09:44Am I ready?
09:48Oh my god.
09:50I look just like her.
09:54We are gonna make sure
09:56he feels every bit of pain
09:58he caused Emma.
10:00Every lie, every betrayal.
10:02We're gonna make him pay.
10:04This is gonna be your new identity.
10:06Okay?
10:08I'll be with you every step of the way.
10:16Cecilia's here.
10:18Why would she help us with the papers?
10:20Come on, listen. She's just a fashion designer.
10:22Sure, she can drape a gown,
10:24but she's not exactly the type to ruffle feathers.
10:26Hey, why don't you go ahead
10:28and you go take her to Emma's office, okay?
10:36Okay.
10:50Thank you
10:52so much for coming, Cecilia.
10:54I didn't realize you had such a
10:56big company.
10:58Well, technically this is
11:00Emma's company, my partner.
11:02You know, I'm sorry about the other day.
11:04You look just like her.
11:08So she's missing.
11:10Sounds like you want
11:12me to impersonate her.
11:14Well, the shareholders are starting to make their moves,
11:16so I
11:18hope that you could, you know,
11:20sign the stock transfer agreement to me
11:22on her behalf.
11:24What's in it for me?
11:26Well, you'll be well compensated. Enough to live
11:28comfortably
11:30wherever you want.
11:32I'll bring in a trusted lawyer
11:34so you won't face any legal issues.
11:36What if I want to stay?
11:48This is the master bedroom.
11:50Bathroom,
11:52walk-in closet.
11:54Huh?
12:00I think he
12:02brought me to Emma's house.
12:08Keep calm.
12:10Keep him hooked.
12:24I
12:32normally go
12:34for something a bit more daring, but
12:38I could get used to this room.
12:40You look stunning.
12:42But
12:44you see, what good is
12:46perfection, Benjamin,
12:48if I'm behind bars and
12:50able to enjoy it?
12:52Because you see,
12:54you need me
12:56a lot more than I need you.
12:58Make me believe it's worth
13:00the risk.
13:02Just saying, by the time this is all
13:04over, I'm gonna give you
13:06more than you've ever imagined.
13:16I thought you were done with Emma.
13:18But look at you, playing house
13:20with her look-alike.
13:22Hey, come on.
13:24She's just standing.
13:26You know
13:28I only love you.
13:32You always say that.
13:34Why haven't you married me yet?
13:36Just a little longer.
13:38Once I'm at the top, we'll have
13:40everything we've ever dreamed of.
13:42What if Emma comes back?
13:44What if she claims the stock
13:46transfer's invalid?
13:48I'll have a witness there
13:50to legitimize everything.
13:52The legal team
13:54you think they'll listen to?
13:56No, we need someone there without ties.
13:58Someone who can
14:00make this ironclad.
14:02Look at this.
14:04I've handled complex
14:06corporate cases, mergers,
14:08acquisitions, international litigation.
14:14It's all about
14:16giving my clients an edge in a competitive world.
14:18Cut!
14:20I need to see the playback on that.
14:22Not bad
14:24for a real lawyer, right?
14:26But are you sure Benjamin's gonna fall for this?
14:28He's only gonna trust
14:30it if he thinks that he discovered it himself.
14:32Someone like me,
14:34fresh from overseas.
14:36He just might fall for it.
14:38But keep an eye on Daisy.
14:40There's something
14:42going on between her and Benjamin.
14:44But Daisy's sharp.
14:46She might be of more help to us
14:48than you think.
14:56What if the lawyer
14:58realizes I'm not Emma?
15:00Listen, she just got back to the States.
15:02She's never even met Emma.
15:04Hey, you're Emma now.
15:06Okay? Keep quiet
15:08and let me handle everything.
15:10It's all under control.
15:14Okay.
15:20Do you,
15:22Emma Williams, agree to transfer
15:24all rights and shares
15:26as outlined in this contract?
15:28I agree.
15:30Are you certain?
15:32This is a full transfer of everything you own.
15:34Okay, what exactly
15:36are you asking?
15:38It's just that I've worked with enough people in this business to know
15:40when something doesn't add up.
15:42Are you Emma Williams?
15:44This is Emma Williams.
15:46Look at the photo. I'm not asking you.
15:48I...
15:50Uh...
15:52Okay, well, I'm not here to tolerate
15:54deception. My job is to protect my clients.
15:56I can't do that if they don't trust me.
15:58If you think you can play games with me,
16:00think again. I'm not here
16:02to babysit lies.
16:04I'm sorry.
16:06Let me explain.
16:08Wait!
16:10Thank God.
16:12He totally bought it.
16:14I was worried he would know I messed up on purpose.
16:16Well, now he'll believe you even more.
16:18What's your next move?
16:20Just wait. He's gonna reach out again.
16:26How did you know?
16:28Benjamin wants to keep this quiet,
16:30especially about you posing as Emma.
16:32It's safer with me involved now.
16:34Here you go.
16:36Benjamin?
16:46Uh...
16:48I owe you an apology.
16:50I should have been straight with you.
16:52Let's make this right.
16:54And what exactly are you offering?
16:56I've seen the headlines.
16:58You're looking to build your reputation here?
17:00I can help.
17:02Go on.
17:04Help me take control of the company,
17:06and in return, I will set you up
17:08to succeed here.
17:10All I need is your trust.
17:12You lied to me, and now you want my trust.
17:14I get it. I've been struggling
17:16to find somebody that I can rely on.
17:18You know,
17:20the real Emma, she's missing.
17:22Missing?
17:24Do you know how that sounds to a lawyer?
17:26No, she's irresponsible,
17:28right?
17:30The company needs a leader,
17:32right? Somebody that's not vacationing in Canada,
17:34ghosting everyone.
17:36And when she returns,
17:38the agreements will be worthless, right?
17:40That's why I need you there
17:42as a witness.
17:44Your name's gonna help solidify the deal.
17:46Let's just hope she doesn't come back this world of fun.
17:48Fine. I'll be the witness.
17:50But if things go wrong,
17:52it's on you.
17:54It won't. With you on my side,
17:56we're untouchable.
17:58And...
18:00you're gonna get what you deserve.
18:08Today I am pleased to announce
18:10that the Emma Williams shares
18:12have officially been
18:14transferred.
18:16I'm now Home Majority Staff.
18:18Emma, did you really sign this?
18:20This doesn't sound like the Emma we knew.
18:22This was my choice.
18:24Benjamin is the right leader
18:26for this company.
18:28And your scarf...
18:30is gone.
18:36I've been so focused on
18:38the company that I neglected myself.
18:40I'm taking a step back
18:42for family.
18:50Hey, hey, hey.
18:52Listen, you played your part
18:54perfectly.
18:56I think we should keep this going.
18:58How long do you think we can keep this little charade up?
19:02Long enough for people to believe it.
19:04Listen.
19:06Starting tonight,
19:08I want you to
19:10be my date for dinner.
19:12Dinner?
19:14Is this about the company or is this personal?
19:16Maybe a little bit of both.
19:18Business.
19:20Pleasure.
19:22You're fit in both worlds,
19:24don't you?
19:26Let's make them
19:28believe every moment.
19:30Send me the guest list.
19:32I'll be ready.
19:50You look just like her.
20:14Hey, listen.
20:16You'll have to know everyone
20:18You'll have to know everyone's name
20:20at that party tonight.
20:22There's no room for errors,
20:24no room for slip-ups.
20:26Then let me stay here
20:28so I can become accustomed
20:30to feeling like the lady of this house.
20:48He was never gonna marry me.
20:50I gave everything
20:52to this relationship and for what?
20:54For him to just
20:56mess around with someone else?
20:58You deserve more than just being
21:00placeholder for him.
21:02He thinks he can just do whatever
21:04he wants.
21:06No! No, I'm not gonna just
21:08let him just
21:10do whatever he wants.
21:12I'm not gonna let him
21:14do whatever he wants.
21:16Just let him
21:18do that to me.
21:20Do you
21:22wonder why Emma hasn't
21:24returned?
21:26She died because
21:28of him.
21:34She died
21:36because of him.
21:38I had nothing to do with that.
21:40Benjamin kept me far away from Emma.
21:42Emma committed suicide.
21:44She...
21:46She left a note.
21:52So Benjamin lied about her
21:54this entire time.
21:56I remember this one
21:58time when
22:00Benjamin said that she took it too far
22:02and he...he was gonna
22:04leak her news.
22:06He's so terrifying.
22:08I'm not gonna be on his side anymore.
22:10Join me.
22:12Together we can take him down.
22:14Okay.
22:22Did you really join us?
22:28What's our next move?
22:30Benjamin doesn't completely trust you
22:32just yet, so your job is to earn his trust
22:34and find more evidence
22:36on his phone.
22:38I'm gonna be right back.
22:42Okay.
22:48I have something to show you.
22:50Whoa.
22:52Emma, I still can't believe
22:54that with all of your money you still
22:56fell for somebody as poor as Benjamin.
22:58But Benjamin
23:00really loves me.
23:02He's so good to me.
23:04You know, sometimes
23:06he can be a little old-fashioned.
23:13This is the most precious
23:15thing in this closet.
23:18It's kind of cute.
23:22I've heard it so many times.
23:24He's so romantic.
23:27I recognize.
23:29Susan.
23:31Susan, okay, that's very helpful.
23:35What did you find?
23:37A slipping mask.
23:44Do I have
23:46a slipping mask?
23:48I don't think so.
23:50I don't think so.
23:52I don't think so.
23:54We have?
23:58We've got it.
24:04I remembered that.
24:06Everyone was saying it was gonna be too risky,
24:08but it turned out to be genius.
24:10Exactly.
24:12Benjamin has this way of making bold moves
24:14without breaking a sweat.
24:16You are so lucky, Emma.
24:18You have a powerhouse for partying.
24:20Trust me, I know.
24:22He's brilliant, but
24:24too humble for his own good.
24:32Emma, you've really cut
24:34the tight leash on him.
24:36A drop of alcohol for Benjamin.
24:38Why would I stop Benjamin from drinking?
24:40Ben,
24:42here's to you
24:44for running the company
24:46like a pro.
24:48No way.
24:50Now that I've said that,
24:52Emma's taking a step back.
24:54She no longer controls me anymore.
25:04Woo!
25:14Hey, Emma!
25:16What are you celebrating?
25:18Shit. He's not on the list.
25:20Who is he?
25:22Emma, we never did finish that conversation
25:24about expanding overseas.
25:26What's your thought about it after all this time?
25:28Well, I, uh,
25:30things change.
25:32I've taken a step back recently.
25:34Benjamin handles most of that now.
25:36But...
25:40Gary, when did you get back
25:42from London?
25:44Daisy, what's it been, like a couple years?
25:46Feels like forever.
25:48Why didn't you tell me you were coming back?
25:50I don't like surprises.
25:52Emma, you got someone invaluable.
25:54Daisy was my assistant back in the UK.
25:56Absolutely.
25:58She's been a huge help.
26:06What a night.
26:08Hey, you know,
26:10Daisy was supposed to have everything under control.
26:12Bet she slept all day.
26:14This a job?
26:16Aren't you gonna
26:18drive me home?
26:26Emma!
26:28Emma! Hey!
26:30Hey!
26:38Sorry.
26:40Look, if it's too much, we can stop.
26:42No?
26:44We can keep going.
26:56Nice.
26:58That move was crucial.
27:00I finally got it.
27:02That's how Emma got her scar.
27:04Just rescuing Ben that way.
27:06I wonder what would have happened
27:08if I had persuaded her to break up.
27:10It wouldn't have ended up happening.
27:12You can't blame yourself.
27:20Ben!
27:22You're too drunk to drive.
27:28Ben!
27:30You are too drunk to drive.
27:32I'm not drunk.
27:34We'll call a cab, alright?
27:36Ben, you're not driving like this.
27:38Listen.
27:40Ben!
27:46You are going now.
28:00Hey.
28:02Are you feeling better?
28:04Because I was so worried about you.
28:06I'm okay.
28:08I've been thinking.
28:10I really care about you.
28:12And I want us
28:14to be together. Officially.
28:16I believe that.
28:18But my phone got smashed
28:20in the accident.
28:22Could I borrow yours?
28:24Yeah. Yeah. Of course.
28:30Okay. Could I have some fruit too?
28:32I'm craving something fresh.
28:34Of course. What kind of fruit?
28:36Whatever they have.
28:38Okay. Yeah.
28:40Come here.
28:58You won't believe what I found.
29:00Benjamin has been transferring
29:02many assets to his personal account
29:04for years.
29:0620 million dollars?
29:08Do you think we can use this against him?
29:10We might need more than just financial records,
29:12but this is a good start.
29:14Wait. What's this?
29:16Oh.
29:18He was threatening to send these
29:20to the company's email to humiliate her.
29:22He's a monster.
29:24He's going to pay
29:26for every single thing that he did.
29:28Every single damn thing.
29:32Just talk to the rehab center.
29:34Apparently, Benjamin started drinking
29:36from stress at work.
29:38Emma forced him into rehab.
29:40Cookies?
29:42Anyone?
29:46Oh.
29:48I didn't realize you had company.
29:50Are you guys together?
29:52Finally. Someone says it.
29:54No. No, no, no.
29:56That's not it. At all.
29:58Okay. What?
30:00We're not.
30:02I'm just her producer.
30:04Okay. And a cookie enthusiast.
30:06Producer who loves cookies.
30:08That's a rare breed.
30:10Anyway, Benjamin's drinking got so bad.
30:12Guess what?
30:14He blamed that on Emma.
30:16Of course he did.
30:18Because he's always the victim, right?
30:20And I'm the queen of England.
30:22Oh. Cookie, your majesty.
30:26Aren't you glad you didn't stick around long enough
30:28Trust me. I could not be more happy
30:30to leave him behind.
30:32Ladies, we are going to make Benjamin pay
30:34for what he did.
30:36We're going to show him a world without Emma.
30:38Evan.
30:40More cookies?
30:42I want you to be a billionaire.
30:46What?
30:56You know, Benjamin,
30:58I do prefer closing deals
31:00in a much more relaxed setting.
31:02Don't you?
31:04Absolutely. You know,
31:06business should feel good, not stiff.
31:08Well, I'll toast to that.
31:12Nothing quite like $20 million
31:14to start our partnership, yeah?
31:18$20 million, huh?
31:22You really know how to get my attention.
31:24It's a big move,
31:26but a bold one.
31:28But then again,
31:30boldness suits you, doesn't it?
31:32Everything's ready.
31:34I just need you to sit in the chair.
31:36We're good to go.
31:38Yeah.
31:40This looks good.
31:44But you know, I should wait
31:46for Julia. You know, she's always very, very thorough.
31:50Hey.
31:52Julia.
31:54You're here already.
31:56Could you take a look at this, please?
32:00This looks solid to me.
32:08Do it, baby.
32:22Hey.
32:44Hey, what are you cooking?
32:46Just my secret recipe.
32:52Something that will cure your hangover.
33:08This was always my mom's secret
33:10to starting the day right.
33:18This tastes exactly like...
33:20What? You like it?
33:22It's just a family recipe I've perfected.
33:24I think I want to spend
33:26the rest of my life with you.
33:34Who could that be?
33:42I need to talk to Benjamin.
33:44Okay.
33:50I heard that Emma killed herself
33:52in Canada.
33:54And they say that you were involved.
33:56Come on.
33:58What's going on?
34:00That's not true.
34:02Just save it.
34:04Did you think that you could hide it forever?
34:06Did you think that nobody would notice
34:08when you just replaced Emma with Cecilia?
34:10Like an old worn coat?
34:12Listen, I just...
34:14I just closed a huge deal.
34:16A 20 million dollar deal.
34:18Everything is on the line.
34:20Your deal doesn't mean...
34:22What?
34:24Your deal doesn't mean anything if you're in prison.
34:26Okay. Alright.
34:28Listen, how much do we need
34:30to make this go away?
34:32This isn't just about money, Benjamin.
34:34This is bigger than that.
34:36How is she dead?
34:38I didn't hurt her.
34:40This isn't happening.
34:48Okay.
35:10I didn't do anything wrong.
35:14What do you mean?
35:18Didn't you love her?
35:20Love?
35:22Maybe.
35:24She was always so...
35:26You know, she was like...
35:28Needy.
35:30Oh?
35:32How so?
35:34She was the worst.
35:36She always wanted me to...
35:38She was always so naggy.
35:40She wanted me to change.
35:42She wanted me to...
35:44She wanted me to quit drinking.
35:46With you? Come here.
35:48Come here.
35:50With you, it's different.
35:52You know, I...
35:54I'm finally free.
35:58Maybe we just need to remind you
36:00how much Emma meant to you.
36:16Benjamin's still tight-lipped
36:18about Emma.
36:20Get him rattled enough to slip up.
36:22Okay, let me handle it.
36:26You really think you can pull that off?
36:28When it comes to you,
36:30I can do anything.
36:36I just mean...
36:38We'll figure it out together.
36:42Yeah.
36:44Yeah.
36:46Together.
37:00Daphne?
37:02What's going on?
37:08Stay out of it, alright?
37:10I don't need a secretary lecturing me
37:12about deadlines.
37:14Just fix it.
37:16Fix it?
37:18You're the one who signed off
37:20on these ridiculous deadlines.
37:22You don't
37:24get to question me, Daisy.
37:26Just make them work overtime.
37:28Push through.
37:30Fine.
37:32Just don't regret that.
37:36Fine.
37:38Daisy, get me another bottle of whiskey.
37:42Okay.
38:02Daisy.
38:04Hey, Daisy!
38:12Daisy.
38:14I need you to get Julie in my office.
38:16Right now.
38:20Hey.
38:22Julie, come here.
38:24Look at this.
38:28I need you to find out who's doing this
38:30and put him in jail, alright?
38:32Whoever's doing this,
38:34they're targeting me personally.
38:36They're trying to ruin me.
38:38Well, okay, I'm going to need to
38:40get an investigation and I'm going to need
38:42the company's internal data.
38:44Okay.
38:46Yeah.
38:48Do whatever you need to do to find this person.
38:50Just find them.
38:56Julia, we found
38:58the record of that $20 million.
39:00Great job.
39:02We finally have something to take him down.
39:04I found something, too.
39:06Why would he do something like this?
39:08He wanted to destroy
39:10her credibility and dismantle her authority
39:12in the company.
39:14What a scumbag.
39:16We cannot let him get away with this.
39:18He thinks he can do me justice.
39:22We won't hold back.
39:24Hey.
39:36Why are these designs still not approved?
39:38Huh?
39:40We're running out of time.
39:42It's impossible.
39:44There's no way we can move.
39:46It's impossible?
39:48Do you even understand what's at stake here?
39:50We've been working around the clock.
39:52Some people are ready to walk out.
39:54That's fine.
39:56If you can't handle it,
39:58you were fired and I'll find somebody
40:00who can do the job.
40:02That is illegal, Benjamin.
40:04We can't just fire people
40:06over this.
40:08Ben, with everyone that's quit,
40:10we're barely scraping by.
40:12You'll be in breach of contract.
40:14Yeah, Ben.
40:16You're not really going to fire them, are you?
40:18You all think you can challenge me?
40:20Hmm?
40:24I built this company.
40:26Get out.
40:28Get out!
40:48Alex has barged into the building
40:50demanding to see you.
40:52Alex?
40:58Just as the internet says.
41:00I thought
41:02we could trust you.
41:04Look at you.
41:06Pathetic.
41:08I got it. Come on.
41:10I got everything under control.
41:12I just need some more time.
41:14Some more time.
41:16I'm under enough pressure already.
41:18Fix this
41:20or we're done.
41:38Emma.
41:40I can't do this without you.
41:42Emma's gone, Benjamin.
41:44Benjamin.
41:46And you are the reason why.
41:48No, Emma, you're right here. Just come here.
41:50I'm not Emma!
41:52Benjamin, you have destroyed
41:54the one person who believed in you in this world.
41:56And now
41:58you're nothing.
42:00Just like you always feared.
42:14Uh...
42:16Daisy, come on.
42:18I said not now.
42:20Close the damn curtains, please.
42:22Oh, my God. Not happening, Benjamin.
42:24You're out of time.
42:26Okay, your problems aren't going away
42:28just because you refuse to deal with them.
42:30Okay, well, you think I don't know that, all right?
42:32Come on.
42:34I've been carrying this damn company on my back.
42:36Carrying it?
42:38No, no, you're drowning in it.
42:40And you're taking us all down with you.
42:42And what the hell do you expect me to do?
42:44Outsource it.
42:46Pretty soon,
42:48we're not gonna have a company to worry about.
42:50Or are you too drunk to see that?
42:52Fine.
42:56Sign it.
43:02The leader looks it over.
43:04It's fine.
43:06It's the only way to make our deadlines, okay?
43:12Just get it done.
43:14And I don't want to hear another word
43:16about this goddamn project.
43:18Fine.
43:26So today is the big day, huh?
43:28Alex's shipment is finally
43:30going through.
43:36Once this is all over,
43:38we can finally put this whole mess behind us.
43:40No more delays.
43:42No more headaches.
43:46You can't just march in like this.
43:48Stay out of my way.
43:52I want my penalty fees.
43:54Now.
43:56What are you talking about?
43:58Everything is on schedule and we will...
44:00Actually, the outsourcing company failed.
44:02They didn't deliver the packages.
44:06What?
44:08Or we're going to court.
44:12Excuse me.
44:14What am I gonna do?
44:16There is always a solution, okay?
44:18You'll figure things out.
44:20You will.
44:22And you're not alone in this.
44:28Hold on.
44:32Yeah.
44:34Hello? Money tree?
44:36No.
44:38I'm not interested in
44:40high-interest loans.
44:42Okay. What kind of terms are you talking about?
44:50Okay. I'll think about it.
44:52Yeah. Thank you.
44:58I'm gonna find a way
45:00through this, okay? Somehow.
45:02Yes, you will.
45:06You will.
45:12You're a bastard.
45:14Our partnership is done.
45:16Don't ever contact me again.
45:22I can't believe you went to a loan shark.
45:24How are you gonna pay for that?
45:28You know, I just need to...
45:30I just need to rebuild
45:32my reputation, you know?
45:34You can do it, Ben.
45:36I trust you.
45:38Daisy, hey.
45:40I got a question for you.
45:44Do you think I wanted this?
45:46Huh? You think I had
45:48options?
45:50Look, I'm gonna
45:52fix this,
45:54okay?
45:56I can marry the fake Emma, right?
45:58It's just temporary.
46:00It's just enough for me to convince
46:02the investors that, hey, look,
46:04that this
46:06is for us.
46:08And what if the real Emma comes back to
46:10haunt you? She'll never come back.
46:12Come here.
46:14Come here.
46:16Hey.
46:18We're still at work. Shut up, okay?
46:22Come on in. Sit down.
46:24Alright.
46:32Okay.
46:52Well, that was fast.
46:54I felt right.
46:58Celia,
47:00will you marry
47:02me, and everything
47:04will be yours?
47:08Yes, I will.
47:16I want our wedding
47:18to be grand. A public
47:20spectacle.
47:22Something no one
47:24could ignore.
47:26Whatever you want.
47:30To us.
47:32And our future.
47:48Where's
47:50Cecilia?
47:52Where is
47:54Cecilia?
47:56Where is
47:58Cecilia?
48:00Benjamin,
48:02Celia, you were here
48:04to announce your wedding with Miss Emma.
48:06But we just learned
48:08that she passed away a month
48:10ago.
48:14So, who
48:16exactly you are marrying?
48:18I'm here to marry Emma.
48:20She's not dead.
48:22But Toronto police
48:24just confirmed her death.
48:26So, how did she sign the
48:28stock transfer agreement, and what about the
48:30loan sharks?
48:46We can't let this continue.
48:48His behavior is damaging this company's reputation.
48:50As well as
48:52the stock price.
48:54We need to remove him from control immediately.
49:04You'll help me, right?
49:06You said you were on my side,
49:08and you're supposed to keep me
49:10out of jail.
49:12Tax evasion.
49:14Domestic violence.
49:16Fraud.
49:18What is this?
49:20It seems like you've done a lot of stuff
49:22behind my back.
49:24So, as usual, I'm gonna need
49:26the full story if I can
49:28help you properly.
49:30So, let's start with what happened between you
49:32and Emma.
49:34Okay.
49:36Emma and I met.
49:42Here's your confession.
49:44Sign it.
49:46Emma and I met.
49:52Here's your confession.
49:54Sign it.
50:16Hey.
50:22Hey.
50:24Daisy.
50:26Listen, I, uh...
50:28I can't.
50:30No, I can't.
50:32I need you.
50:34I need you.
50:36You need me.
50:38You manipulated me.
50:40You took credit for my work.
50:42And you made me hate myself, so...
50:44I'm so sorry.
50:46You are more...
50:48You are more capable
50:50than I've ever given you credit for.
50:52You
50:54are nothing without me.
50:56Nothing.
50:58Boys?
51:00What am I supposed to do?
51:02What about the loan?
51:08Hold on, hold on.
51:14Hold on.
51:22Uh, Your Honor, my, uh...
51:26My lawyer's on her way.
51:28You just gotta give her some more time, okay?
51:30Didn't you say you were representing yourself?
51:32No.
51:34My lawyer's the famous, uh...
51:36Julia Thompson.
51:38Uh, she's my defense attorney.
51:40I don't know of
51:42any attorney named Julia Thompson.
51:44The prosecution has accused you
51:46of forging a stock transfer statement.
51:48Someone disguised as Emma
51:50signed the agreement.
51:52It had nothing to do with me.
51:56Ah.
51:58There she is.
52:04There she is.
52:08She was the witness to the stock transfer agreement.
52:10She can prove it.
52:12I was tricked
52:14by the fake Emma.
52:16Is this true?
52:18I'm a film director,
52:20not a lawyer.
52:22I couldn't have witnessed any signing.
52:24Oh.
52:26You're a liar.
52:28She set me up.
52:30I have here Emma's
52:32application for Benjamin's
52:34admission to the rehab.
52:36He's mentally unstable.
52:38He cannot be trusted.
52:42We have the defendant's
52:44own
52:46written testimony
52:48admitting to all
52:50of the crimes he now
52:52denies.
52:54Julia, you...
52:56You set me up!
52:58I'm gonna push you in jail!
53:00I'm gonna sue you!
53:02Your Honor, she's lying!
53:04Get off me!
53:08I made sure
53:10the man who betrayed you
53:12paid for it.
53:14He didn't value
53:16your sacrifices.
53:18He lost everything,
53:20just like he deserved.
53:22Oh.
53:24Don't worry about your company.
53:26I'll protect it with everything I've got.
53:28Until your sister's
53:30ready to take over.
53:32Hey.
53:34Who's your daughter?
53:36Who's your daughter?
53:38Surgery go okay?
53:40I sold Benjamin's ring to cover the loss.
53:42The surgery was a success.
53:44She's doing well now.
53:46Hey.
54:04Hey, Julia.
54:06I've, uh...
54:08I'm meaning to ask you something.
54:10Listen, I've fallen
54:12for you.
54:14Will you marry me?
54:16I like
54:18you too.
54:20But...
54:22I'm not ready to get married
54:24just yet.
54:26Why not?
54:28I've got films
54:30I want to make. I've got stories
54:32I want to tell. It's a big part of my life.
54:34I think you know that.
54:36Yeah.
54:38But we can still date.
54:40We can still be
54:42together and still love each other.
54:44That's all I want.
55:08Cut!
55:10Great work, Nico.
55:14Great job.
55:16Loved it.
55:18Look at you now.
55:20My investor is here to supervise me.
55:22I'm just trying to make sure everything is perfect, okay?
55:24Let's watch playback.
55:26Mom, you were amazing.
55:28Thanks, sweetie.
55:30Did you like watching Mommy act?
55:32Looks like we got approval from the top.
55:34Okay.
55:38In this story,
55:40Emma isn't a victim.
55:42Instead,
55:44alongside her friends,
55:46she builds an empire
55:48showing how women, united,
55:50can overcome any challenge
55:52and achieve success.
