00:00:00Can you believe they sent a deaf stylist?
00:00:09Who do they think are going to be wearing these haute couture designer pieces today?
00:00:20There he is, Mr. Congressman Marcus Blakeson.
00:00:34He's so handsome.
00:00:38Congressman Marcus is California's youngest and most promising political star.
00:00:45OMG, imagine dating someone that hot.
00:00:47His wife is actually a chester.
00:00:53My friend Tommy says he adores his wife so much, he never brings her to any public events to protect her from the media.
00:01:01Has anyone ever actually seen his wife?
00:01:17Let me just remove it.
00:01:43Okay.
00:01:48Go.
00:01:56We're married, but I'm just a pawn in his quest for power.
00:02:00In his grand narrative, I am nothing but the shadow to his shining star.
00:02:29I can hear.
00:02:41How can I?
00:02:43How can I hear?
00:02:45No security for a politician's wife.
00:02:50Feeling you was almost too easy.
00:02:53I'm kidnapped?
00:02:54Call your husband.
00:02:57Now.
00:03:00That's right.
00:03:01You're deaf.
00:03:06Go on.
00:03:14Marcus.
00:03:15Marcus, please pick up the phone.
00:03:18Of course.
00:03:20Absolutely.
00:03:30Hello?
00:03:33Hello?
00:03:34I have your wife.
00:03:35You're going to do exactly as I say or I'm going to kill her.
00:03:42Hello?
00:03:43I have your wife.
00:03:44But if you don't do exactly what I say.
00:03:48I'm going to kill her.
00:03:49I don't have time for these games.
00:03:51Congressman Marcus, I truly cannot believe that you don't care about your wife's life.
00:03:56And I'm telling you, I get three or four of these scams a week, so why don't you go kick rocks?
00:04:00I'll tell you one more time.
00:04:02She's my hostage.
00:04:04Well, then call me when she's a corpse.
00:04:08That man is fucking cruel.
00:04:10You know that?
00:04:12Heartless politician.
00:04:14You know, if he doesn't care about whether or not you die, I guess it's my choice.
00:04:20And believe me, you're beautiful.
00:04:23It's a shame you're not going to know what you're dying for.
00:04:28Marcus, you motherfucker!
00:04:39Tom?
00:04:42Tom, I keep getting scam calls to my phone.
00:04:44I need you to check out the origin of the number.
00:04:46I've already checked this number a hundred times.
00:04:48I understand, but we need to make sure that my wife is safe.
00:04:50Copy that.
00:04:51Also, if you could just let Mr. Versace know I'll be right with him.
00:05:10What are you doing?
00:05:19No.
00:05:20Alcohol.
00:05:24Are you kidding me?
00:05:25Give me that.
00:05:34What is with the attitude?
00:05:42Hello?
00:05:44Mr. Flerka, the call had an antispiratory measure and it was too brief to trace.
00:05:48They also used a voice changer, so voice analyst is out.
00:05:53These people have no idea who they're dealing with.
00:05:56They really think that my wife is my weakness.
00:05:59Ridiculous.
00:06:00I cannot believe that the first thing I hear in three years is that you wanted me dead.
00:06:06Tom, I need you to set up a security detail for Ariel.
00:06:10And absolutely under no circumstances should she find out.
00:06:13Just make sure it doesn't interfere with her life or work.
00:06:15Understood?
00:06:23I've rigged this phone against tracking.
00:06:26Your husband can't trace it.
00:06:28Marcus marrying you three years ago from my sister was the biggest mistake of my life.
00:06:33Now that I have my hearing back, I'm going to make sure everything gets back on track.
00:06:47Marcus, you're not supposed to see me before the wedding.
00:06:49Take the dress off.
00:06:51Really?
00:06:53This is what you want, to be the wife of a politician?
00:06:56It's just like the dress, it's not even yours.
00:06:58Do I have a choice?
00:07:00Let's get things straight.
00:07:01I need to marry Rochester in order to secure my run for the house.
00:07:04Your sister runs off, so now you get to be the replacement.
00:07:12So, I'm really just a replacement to you?
00:07:21Yeah.
00:07:23Yeah, you are.
00:07:27Okay, let's establish a couple ground rules.
00:07:30One, I'm technically going to be married to Claire, so we have to conceal your identity.
00:07:35Two, you're not making any public appearances.
00:07:38And three, during our marriage, there are no children whatsoever.
00:07:43Okay?
00:07:45Are you listening?
00:07:46Why are you doing this to me?
00:07:51Because people like us are not afforded the choice.
00:08:04Ariel.
00:08:06Ariel, are you okay?
00:08:10Ariel?
00:08:23Has Ariel recovered any of her hearing since that sudden deafness at the wedding?
00:08:28It's not so bad being deaf, Mrs. Flick.
00:08:30It spares Ariel from hearing anything that might damage Marcus' campaign for governor.
00:08:35Exactly.
00:08:36And when Marcus becomes governor, we might consider cosmetic surgery for Ariel.
00:08:42Make her look more like her sister.
00:08:44I'm sure the public will sympathize with Marcus that he has not abandoned his disabled wife.
00:08:50You're so wise, Mr. Flick. That's a brilliant strategy.
00:08:54You all seem more concerned about politics than the well-being of my wife.
00:08:58You really think it's appropriate gloating over her condition?
00:09:01I was just considering your career.
00:09:03While we're on the topic, as long as I'm married to Ariel,
00:09:05we're not going to be doing any reconstructive surgery to make her look like her sister.
00:09:10I'm not going to allow it.
00:09:12Why is he defending me now?
00:09:14On that note, we're going to be taking our leave.
00:09:19Bye.
00:09:30Stop!
00:09:35I'm visiting wildfire victims tomorrow, and I need your help picking an outfit.
00:09:42Remember, nothing too high profile.
00:09:50Oh, my goodness.
00:09:54Not that.
00:09:59Marcus.
00:10:04It's a good thing you couldn't hear what my parents said about you.
00:10:12I want to thank you all for making the time to be here today.
00:10:14I think that's a big deal.
00:10:19I think it's important to just acknowledge that, in spite of recent events, it's...
00:10:32Divorce your wife, Ariel Rochester, within the month, or your scandal goes public.
00:10:37Our state goes through a lot of disasters.
00:10:39Mudslides, we deal with droughts, we deal with wildfires.
00:10:43In my understanding, over the last 40 years, a lot of things have built up to this moment.
00:10:49A lot of things that are perceived to bring us to...
00:10:53Just one moment, guys.
00:10:58Who is this?
00:10:59Divorce your wife, Ariel Rochester, within the month, or your scandal goes public.
00:11:03I don't think you've done your homework.
00:11:06My wife's name is Claire.
00:11:08No, Claire is the older sister.
00:11:10I'm sorry.
00:11:11I'm sorry.
00:11:12I'm sorry.
00:11:13I'm sorry.
00:11:14I'm sorry.
00:11:15I'm sorry.
00:11:16I'm sorry.
00:11:17I'm sorry.
00:11:18I'm sorry.
00:11:19I'm sorry.
00:11:20I'm sorry.
00:11:21I'm sorry.
00:11:22Claire's the older sister.
00:11:23When she ran away three years ago, you married Ariel to save your political career.
00:11:28What would your supporters think if they knew that you're a liar and a hypocrite?
00:11:35What would your supporters think if they knew that you're a liar and a hypocrite?
00:11:38Swapping wives between two sisters?
00:11:41I didn't know my wife's name was Ariel.
00:11:44Tell me who the hell this is.
00:11:46It doesn't matter who I am.
00:11:47Divorce your wife and...
00:11:48Your secrets disappear with me.
00:11:50I mean, after all, she's just a substitute and you hate her.
00:11:53So, it shouldn't really be a problem.
00:11:55There's no chance I'm divorcing Ariel.
00:11:57Don't even think about it.
00:11:59I'll give you a month or...
00:12:01I'll kill her.
00:12:06Kill her.
00:12:09It must be because Marcus is running for governor.
00:12:12So, now he doesn't want to divorce me.
00:12:16Now I need a new plan.
00:12:21Mr. Flick, you're about to be on camera and the press will definitely make a big deal of that moment.
00:12:27Tom, I want you to get me the best computer engineers in the world.
00:12:30We're going to nail the bastards threatening Ariel.
00:12:33Copy that, sir.
00:12:34Also, I need you to make it a top priority that we find a fashion consultant.
00:12:39I don't want some fashion editor.
00:12:41I want someone on your team.
00:12:43I don't want you to get me the best computer engineers in the world.
00:12:46Copy that, sir.
00:12:47Besides, I don't want some fashion editor.
00:12:50I want someone who understands political messaging.
00:12:57Hi, Johnny.
00:13:08There are some things that can only be appreciated once they're gone.
00:13:12I mean, I've lived the past three years of my life in a silent hell and now...
00:13:16Life has given me a second chance to hear again.
00:13:20This time...
00:13:23I'm going to live for myself.
00:13:27This time...
00:13:30I'm going to live for myself.
00:13:34Johnny, you're my guardian angel. You know that, right?
00:13:38I mean, I know that when mom married into the Rochester family, they wouldn't accept you because of your...
00:13:44Differences, but...
00:13:46I need you to know that I would never give up on you.
00:13:51Ever.
00:13:54Okay?
00:14:13Okay.
00:14:25Dr. Park, is it possible to regain hearing in a case like my wife's?
00:14:29Is it treatable with surgery?
00:14:31Her sudden deafness was triggered by a severe shock.
00:14:34We can attempt surgery, but I must be honest, the chances of success are very slim.
00:14:41If it works, it would be absolutely close to a miracle.
00:14:45It's just something that doesn't happen very often. I'm so sorry.
00:14:50I know it's not the news you wanted to hear.
00:14:55We're doing everything we can, okay?
00:14:56Okay.
00:14:59There we go.
00:15:05Learn to please your husband and have a baby, A.S.P.P.
00:15:11Okay.
00:15:42Tom.
00:15:43The manager sent me a few photos. I need you to trace them.
00:15:46Yes, sir.
00:15:47Keep them on the line for more than five minutes for better tracking.
00:16:02Did you see that?
00:16:03It's a central photo of your wife that she sent to someone else.
00:16:06She's cheating on you.
00:16:08It's a central photo of your wife that she sent to someone else.
00:16:11She's cheating on you.
00:16:13My wife wouldn't cheat on me.
00:16:17It's a central photo of your wife that she sent to someone else.
00:16:20She's cheating on you.
00:16:22My wife wouldn't cheat on me.
00:16:24Why? You don't think she's attractive enough?
00:16:27No, I think she's quite attractive, actually.
00:16:30I just know her.
00:16:32And she wouldn't betray her promises.
00:16:34You know, those photos you sent, the faces are unrecognizable.
00:16:37How are you so confident that they're my wife?
00:16:39Didn't you just boast about knowing your wife so well?
00:16:41Vera has a birthmark on her chest.
00:16:43Surely you're familiar with it.
00:16:45How do you know about the birthmark?
00:16:46Who are you?
00:16:47It doesn't matter who I am.
00:16:49Here are my demands.
00:16:50Divorce your wife or this provocative photo goes public.
00:16:53I'll claim that the perfect congressman can't satisfy his wife.
00:16:57Leaving her to find happiness elsewhere.
00:17:00What do you gain if I divorce my wife?
00:17:07What do you gain if I divorce my wife?
00:17:10Damn, I hadn't thought of that.
00:17:12I hate her.
00:17:13I can't stand seeing her live such a privileged life.
00:17:16Well, I'm not going to indulge your twisted desires.
00:17:19She's my wife and I'm going to protect her.
00:17:21Don't act like you really love her.
00:17:23You're just worried that a divorce would hurt your political image.
00:17:26You think you know me so well.
00:17:28If you love someone, you don't trap them in a political sham marriage, you hypocrite.
00:17:34Hello?
00:17:35Hello?
00:17:37This man is too complicated to understand.
00:17:45No, sir, we've hit a snag with the anti-surveillance software.
00:17:48You know, it's only been traced in a general area.
00:17:52Okay, go ahead.
00:17:53Your phone's location is within a five-mile radius,
00:17:57which includes your house, sir.
00:18:05Ariel.
00:18:06She's in danger.
00:18:35Ariel.
00:18:54You mad at me?
00:18:58Ariel.
00:18:59Don't!
00:19:01Okay, I won't touch you.
00:19:05Okay.
00:19:22We require a candidate who grasps the significant impact of clothing on political image-making
00:19:26and understands how each garment can tell a compelling story.
00:19:35Ariel.
00:19:40Mom, what are you doing?
00:19:42That's my work.
00:19:43Instead of focusing on this garbage,
00:19:45why don't you learn how to dress nicely so you can catch a good man like your sister did?
00:19:49Mom, clothing isn't just a tool for attracting men.
00:19:53I can't believe you just said that.
00:19:55Ariel, you're going to stop chasing these fanciful dreams.
00:19:58Do you remember where you came from?
00:20:01Without my marriage into the Rochester family,
00:20:03you wouldn't even have the money to attend a private school and focus on this nonsense.
00:20:08If you don't want to end up poor again, listen to me.
00:20:12Focus your efforts on finding a wealthy husband,
00:20:16just like I did.
00:20:32Well, the worst I could say is no.
00:20:42As long as this brings me closer to my dream of being a designer,
00:20:46I'm ready to work for anyone.
00:20:49I can't let anybody, especially him, find out I can hear again.
00:20:53I have to stay silent in public and avoid reacting too quickly.
00:20:57Maybe using text-to-speech is the best.
00:21:12My name is Ariel Anderson.
00:21:14I graduated from the School of Visual Art with a degree in fashion design.
00:21:17I lost my hearing due to an accident three years ago.
00:21:19Unfortunately, a hearing aid won't really help.
00:21:22Therefore, I'd appreciate it if you could use pen and paper for communication.
00:21:26I'm concerned that her hearing might affect her performance.
00:21:29Recruiting a disabled woman will make our campaign team look more diverse and socially responsible.
00:21:35The board has to think better of us.
00:21:37I hear both of your concerns, however.
00:21:39But the reality is we only need a wardrobe consultant that's qualified.
00:21:45The congressman needs to attend an unscheduled event.
00:21:48Please adjust the suit accordingly.
00:21:56Please adjust the suit accordingly.
00:22:11Is she modifying it just by eye?
00:22:26Congressman Flick, may I ask you to try it on?
00:22:43Five feet, nine inches tall, 165 pounds.
00:22:46Chest, 33.6 inches.
00:22:48Waist, 32.9 inches.
00:22:50Hips, 35.7 inches.
00:22:52These are the congressman's measurements, and I'm confident that they're accurate.
00:22:55That's entirely correct.
00:22:58True.
00:23:00But I need a wardrobe consultant, not a tailor.
00:23:08But I need a wardrobe consultant, not a tailor.
00:23:13Sorry, Congressman. I can't hear.
00:23:19I want you to take a look at these photos.
00:23:21Tell us five things that you see wrong with them.
00:23:33The tie is too flashy, the pants are too short, and overall, the photo screams one word.
00:23:37Arrogance.
00:23:40She is incredible.
00:23:44She's the one.
00:23:45Congratulations.
00:23:51Congrats.
00:23:52Welcome.
00:24:02I was supposed to be divorcing him, but now I guess I'm working with him.
00:24:11Hi, I'm Daniel Campbell.
00:24:15Good to meet you.
00:24:16I'm so happy to have you on the team.
00:24:18You're great.
00:24:20Would you like to get a coffee?
00:24:23Sure.
00:24:24Yeah?
00:24:35Who is that guy?
00:24:36Can we fire that guy?
00:24:37What?
00:24:38No, that's inappropriate.
00:24:39We can't fire people for no good reason.
00:24:41That'll go against our team's reputation.
00:24:43Also, not to mention the upcoming campaign.
00:24:46Well, then keep a close eye on him, okay?
00:24:48That's not part of my job.
00:24:52So, um, what happened?
00:24:54Your...
00:24:56Sorry.
00:25:01Accident.
00:25:07I don't know.
00:25:08Why don't you get cochlear implants?
00:25:11Cochlear implants for your ear?
00:25:13Too...
00:25:15robotic?
00:25:17Interesting.
00:25:18The...
00:25:19silence...
00:25:22helps.
00:25:24You need work?
00:25:26Cool.
00:25:34Hey, Warrick Campbell.
00:25:36It's my lunch break, Mr. Flick.
00:25:37Right.
00:25:38Well, then,
00:25:39you think my new wardrobe consultant
00:25:40needs to check on her duties?
00:25:56Ring.
00:26:04Ring.
00:26:09Ring.
00:26:12Didn't you insist that we hide the fact that we're married?
00:26:14So, why would I bother wearing a ring?
00:26:18Someone hitting on you.
00:26:23Maybe you haven't noticed,
00:26:24but I'm a human, too.
00:26:25I have a life.
00:26:31Oh, my God.
00:26:33Oh, my God, it's you in the photo.
00:26:36Fucking asshole.
00:26:39I'm sorry.
00:26:41I'm sorry.
00:26:52There we go.
00:26:54I'm sorry.
00:26:57There we go.
00:26:58There we go.
00:27:06Don't forget,
00:27:07I'm still paying your brother's medical bills.
00:27:15Marcus, I cannot believe
00:27:16you threatened me with my own brother.
00:27:19What happened to you?
00:27:21What happened to us?
00:27:27The more successful he becomes,
00:27:30the more he feels like a stranger.
00:27:32He's nothing like the Marcus I've known since I was 16.
00:27:37Don't worry.
00:27:48Don't worry.
00:27:49Just hold on tight,
00:27:50and I'll always protect you.
00:27:52Marcus,
00:27:54how come you're always free to visit Johnny with me?
00:27:59Well, your brother's my brother.
00:28:02When I get older, I'm gonna protect you, okay?
00:28:04I promise.
00:28:34Stay.
00:28:39Congressman Flake.
00:28:42Forgive me for asking,
00:28:43but why have I never been introduced to your wife?
00:28:46Your competitors bring their spouses to events like this,
00:28:48and they do quite well for themselves.
00:28:50Right.
00:28:51But I don't consider my wife to be an accessory.
00:28:54She's her own person.
00:28:56And I don't need her chained to me at all times.
00:28:59You are the perfect husband.
00:29:02Pleasure.
00:29:15You again.
00:29:16Don't know how to quit, huh?
00:29:17Have you made up your mind?
00:29:18Are you divorcing your wife or not?
00:29:20Threats, huh?
00:29:21Go ahead.
00:29:22You're just gonna want to regret this.
00:29:23I don't understand you.
00:29:25You say you love your wife,
00:29:26and you want her to live a life that she chooses.
00:29:28And then you turn around and you treat her like a prop.
00:29:30You make me sick.
00:29:32How did you hear about this?
00:29:34Were you at the gala?
00:29:35Have you ever asked her what kind of life she would like to live?
00:29:38Have you ever asked her if she loves you?
00:29:40I swear to God, if you do anything to Ariel,
00:29:42I will kill you.
00:29:43I will make you regret it.
00:29:47Ariel!
00:29:53Ariel!
00:29:58Can you hear me?
00:29:59Have you recovered your hearing?
00:30:00Stop!
00:30:01Why did you turn around when I just called your name?
00:30:05Have you found the phone?
00:30:09Oh, my God.
00:30:12Gas leak!
00:30:13Oh, my God!
00:30:14Oh, my God!
00:30:33On the porch?
00:30:35She seemed to be on the phone.
00:30:37Was it her all along?
00:30:39Water.
00:30:44Water.
00:30:54Why?
00:31:09It's not her.
00:31:15Explain.
00:31:20Just friends.
00:31:21Friends?
00:31:24I'm going to bed.
00:31:26Ariel.
00:31:30I'm jealous, okay?
00:31:31I'm sorry, I'm jealous.
00:31:33I'm jealous of what you and Daniel have.
00:31:45What?
00:32:12What?
00:32:14I can't sleep.
00:32:18Yeah, but you're my wife.
00:32:29Sometimes I forget that you can't hear me.
00:32:33It's crazy that we've been married for three years,
00:32:36and I feel like you hate me more and more.
00:32:41You hate me for being in this marriage, but
00:32:44if you're not with me, how can I protect you?
00:32:47I don't want you to be the perfect wife.
00:32:49You don't need to be the perfect daughter-in-law.
00:32:52I just want you to do what you love.
00:32:56I'm the one stuck in this family.
00:33:00And that's enough.
00:33:06Marcus, I can't see you clearly.
00:33:09Sometimes you're cold and cruel, but other times
00:33:12you sound like you love me.
00:33:15Which one is the real you?
00:33:26Sorry I'm late, everybody.
00:33:27Once dinner, I'm going to be ready.
00:33:30Enough with the carbs, Marcus.
00:33:32Your body shape reflects the family you come from.
00:33:35You don't want to end up obese like one of those poor people, do you?
00:33:41Sorry, Mom.
00:34:01There, you're home.
00:34:03You made PB&J, my favorite.
00:34:11You're welcome.
00:34:41You're welcome.
00:35:07Help with clothes?
00:35:12No.
00:35:18I've really got to keep a close eye on her.
00:35:22Make sure she stays close to me.
00:35:24Sure enough, I'm never just your wife.
00:35:27I'm a pawn.
00:35:29So, we're going to have to make sure that everything is going to stick together.
00:35:32Oh, here we are.
00:35:34Hi, everybody.
00:35:35My name is Congressman Marcus Flick, and this is my team, okay?
00:35:39We came a long way to hear your thoughts.
00:35:41Please, guys, get them out there.
00:35:43Well, I'm curious what you plan to do about this drought we've been struggling with these last 18 months.
00:35:49That's a good question.
00:35:50I'm not going to say anything.
00:35:51I'm not going to say anything.
00:35:52I'm not going to say anything.
00:35:53I'm not going to say anything.
00:35:54I'm not going to say anything.
00:35:55What are you going to do about this drought we've been struggling with these last 18 months?
00:35:58That's a great question.
00:36:00Off the noggin, I think it's important to point out that all of your needs have been finding their way to Sacramento,
00:36:07but they have also been falling onto deaf ears.
00:36:10Marcus is so handsome, isn't he?
00:36:12He's the pride of California.
00:36:14He's the most stylish, well-dressed politician in the state, hands down.
00:36:18And such a perfect husband keeps his wife out of the spotlight to protect her.
00:36:22Perfect husband?
00:36:23These people do not know the first thing about Marcus Flick.
00:36:26Would you say that?
00:36:30Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you.
00:36:39Do you want to check on the horses?
00:36:45They're right over there.
00:36:54Come on, sweetie.
00:36:55Here, let me show you.
00:37:04Looks like you two are having fun.
00:37:06Yeah, we are.
00:37:08If you want to pet a horse, I have one over here you can check out.
00:37:12This one's fine.
00:37:17Perfect.
00:37:18Congressman, can I get a shot of you two feeding the horse?
00:37:21Yeah, if you could feed the horse with her, please.
00:37:25This is great.
00:37:26Perfect.
00:37:28Yes, yes.
00:37:31Oh, perfect.
00:37:38What is Marcus thinking bringing her there?
00:37:44What is Marcus thinking bringing her there?
00:37:46That's insane.
00:37:47But everyone is praising his kindness and sincerity.
00:37:51No one is even noticing everything.
00:37:53The governor's campaign is coming up.
00:37:55We need to be careful.
00:38:03Simone, I thought I told you to handle your daughter.
00:38:12Congressman, we're moving on to the next activity.
00:38:15Okay.
00:38:16I'm going to want my wardrobe stylist with me at all times.
00:38:19Just in case she needs to help me on the spot.
00:38:21Okay.
00:38:29He is a control freak.
00:38:50Marcus!
00:39:09Are you all right?
00:39:11Yeah, I'm all right.
00:39:13Are you hurt?
00:39:14I'm fine.
00:39:20Ariel, Ariel, can you hear me?
00:39:25No, I can't hear you.
00:39:28Ariel, if you can hear me, why are you answering my questions?
00:39:31I don't understand.
00:39:35Ariel, tell me the truth.
00:39:38Can you hear me?
00:39:45Why did you lie to me?
00:39:49Why did you lie to me?
00:40:01Let go of me!
00:40:03How long have you had your hearing back, and when did you get your hearing back?
00:40:06Ariel, why did you lie to me?
00:40:12The day you wanted me dead.
00:40:15What are you talking about?
00:40:17The day my hearing came back was the day you wanted me dead.
00:40:20When did I want you dead?
00:40:22God, you really don't remember?
00:40:24The day I got kidnapped?
00:40:26The first thing I heard when I got my hearing back was you saying,
00:40:29call me back when she's a corpse.
00:40:33Oh, my God.
00:40:35The phone call.
00:40:37It wasn't just a spam call.
00:40:41Why didn't you tell me that you were kidnapped?
00:40:44Why didn't you tell me that you were in danger?
00:40:46Have you always been like this?
00:40:48Blaming everybody but yourself?
00:40:50Did you even care that I was in danger?
00:40:52Do you even see me as your wife?
00:40:54Because every day that I spend with you,
00:40:56I am trapped in a life that I did not choose.
00:40:58How was I supposed to know that the way I'm treating you is causing you so much pain?
00:41:02Please just let me go.
00:41:04I'm just a replacement for my sister.
00:41:08Please just let me go.
00:41:11I'm just a replacement for my sister. Remember?
00:41:14You really think that of me?
00:41:16Because I wasn't blind or heartless before, Marcus.
00:41:19I could still feel things. I just couldn't hear.
00:41:27Ariel, please.
00:41:28Don't.
00:41:30Don't touch me.
00:41:33Ariel!
00:41:37Ariel!
00:41:47So, she's actually here now.
00:41:51This is getting interesting.
00:42:07Hello?
00:42:34Hello, Mrs. Rochester.
00:42:36I've heard you can hear again. Shouldn't you be thanking me?
00:42:42Hello, Mrs. Rochester.
00:42:45I've heard you can hear again. Shouldn't you be thanking me?
00:42:48What the hell do you want?
00:42:49I thought you'd want to hear someone's voice.
00:42:52Come on, sweetie. Say hello to your dear brother.
00:42:55Johnny? No, please don't hurt him.
00:42:58Oh, well, I can't guarantee that. It depends on my mood.
00:43:03Look, if you want anything, just don't hurt him.
00:43:06What a deep love. That's touching, but you ruined my plan last time, remember?
00:43:12I swear to God, if you touch a hair on his head, I will make you pay!
00:43:16Oh, I'm not going to kill him.
00:43:18But as a punishment for your escape, I'm going to leave him in the mountains.
00:43:23I hope he's lucky enough to survive.
00:43:26Adrian, Amanda, the reality is we only have about eight weeks left of this campaign.
00:43:31So we need to lock in.
00:43:33Our goal is to get ahold of Sacramento, L.A., San Diego, all the official sprints.
00:43:43Johnny? Johnny? Johnny? Johnny? Johnny, it's going to be okay.
00:43:47I'm here now. I'm here. It's okay. It's me.
00:43:49It's Ariel. I'm here. It's okay.
00:43:51It's going to be okay. I'm here now. I'm here. It's okay. It's me.
00:43:54It's Ariel. I'm here. It's okay. It's okay.
00:43:56I'm here. I'm here. It's going to be okay.
00:44:00It's okay.
00:44:03Congressman Flick, we found a woman in the unconscious now.
00:44:06Congressman... Marcus? Marcus?
00:44:09Marcus, it's Johnny. There's something wrong, and I don't know what to do.
00:44:12I got you, okay? Don't panic. I'm going to take care of him.
00:44:15We need to get him to the hospital immediately.
00:44:17We're going to take a helicopter.
00:44:22Listen to me, okay? He's going to go to the hospital.
00:44:25We're going to take care of him immediately.
00:44:27But you're hurt, too. You need treatment.
00:44:30Congressman Flick, can I ask your relationship with this lady and the victim?
00:44:35She's my...
00:44:38She's my wife.
00:44:42Can I ask your relationship with this lady and the victim?
00:44:45She's my...
00:44:47She's, uh...
00:44:49She's my wife.
00:44:52And the victim's my brother.
00:44:54This is your wife?
00:44:56Yes. And we need to get her to the hospital immediately. She's in shock.
00:45:01We'll talk about this later.
00:45:20Doctor, how's my brother?
00:45:23The patient's stable. He's just a little shaken up.
00:45:26But he'll be fine. He just needs rest.
00:45:28We appreciate your care.
00:45:30Thank you, Doctor.
00:45:31Mr. Congressman Flick, it's an honor to serve you.
00:45:34We'll give him the best of everything.
00:45:36Don't worry. We'll take good care of your family.
00:45:44Marcus, I don't know how...
00:45:47Marcus, I don't know how...
00:45:49You ruined everything again!
00:45:55You ruined everything again!
00:45:57Your son's in a coma, and your daughter's injured,
00:45:59and you're just gonna come over here as our pointing fingers in a hospital?
00:46:02Marcus, it's all over the news.
00:46:04Ariel went and rescued Johnny today.
00:46:06If people find out she's in a relationship with you,
00:46:08it could ruin your chances of being governor.
00:46:11That's not the point, okay?
00:46:13Family, family comes first.
00:46:15You understand me. I care for Johnny.
00:46:17But he's out of danger now,
00:46:19and it's just a matter of time before he recovers.
00:46:21But you...
00:46:23You're in the middle of an election.
00:46:25One mistake can cost us everything.
00:46:27You care about election results,
00:46:29but I think you only care about your own profits, don't you?
00:46:32I'm telling you right now, you're gonna treat my wife with respect,
00:46:35or you're gonna have to leave.
00:46:37Now leave.
00:46:40Don't take it personally.
00:46:42How could I not?
00:46:44She's done this my whole life,
00:46:46regardless of if I could hear or not.
00:46:48That's the family I grew up in.
00:46:50Listen to me.
00:46:52You, me, Johnny...
00:46:57We're each other's family.
00:46:59Okay?
00:47:10Okay.
00:47:31Yes?
00:47:33You know, this is the first phone call we've had since you...
00:47:36Since you lost your hearing three years ago?
00:47:38Yeah.
00:47:40First call.
00:47:42Yeah.
00:47:44Wait, is this the first...
00:47:47Did you call in another line?
00:47:49No, no, that's not what I meant.
00:47:51How did you know Johnny was in danger today?
00:47:54Well, I asked the caretakers to inform me
00:47:56if anything ever happened to him, so...
00:47:58Why?
00:48:00Why would you do that?
00:48:02Well, because I promised you, Ariel.
00:48:04I promised that I was gonna protect Johnny.
00:48:06I'm so excited.
00:48:10Dang it, Johnny, I was just... I was so scared.
00:48:12I can't imagine what I would do if anything happened to him.
00:48:15He's my only family left.
00:48:19Open the door.
00:48:25Open the door.
00:48:37All right.
00:48:49Wait, wait.
00:48:53You know, I would have gone crazy
00:48:55if anything happened to you today.
00:48:59Marcus.
00:49:01For everything.
00:49:03Come to the office tomorrow.
00:49:05I got something to share with you.
00:49:12Hey.
00:49:14I don't want you being my wardrobe consultant anymore.
00:49:17Why?
00:49:21I don't want you being my wardrobe consultant anymore.
00:49:23Why?
00:49:25Because I've been pushing you too much,
00:49:27and you need to follow your dreams.
00:49:32Here.
00:49:34What's this?
00:49:36This is the key to a design studio in downtown.
00:49:40I raised three million in capital just for you.
00:49:42It's all yours.
00:49:44Are you serious?
00:49:46I'm not joking.
00:49:48And I need you to promise me something, okay?
00:49:50Please do not tell your mom or anybody that you can hear now.
00:49:53Probably best so they're not judging us.
00:49:57Okay.
00:49:59I have something for you, too.
00:50:02What is this?
00:50:04Um, well, for the past three years,
00:50:06I have been documenting some of your looks.
00:50:09It's just some ideas, designs, and things.
00:50:15It's perfect.
00:50:19Come here.
00:50:21Come in.
00:50:30Come in.
00:50:34Congressman, Mr. and Mrs. Flick are here to see you.
00:50:42Come in.
00:50:46Congressman, Mr. and Mrs. Flick are here to see you.
00:50:48Okay, go ahead.
00:50:52Well, your governor's campaign has hit a critical phase,
00:50:58but your support is slipping.
00:51:00And meanwhile, Stephen Hopkins,
00:51:02his approval ratings are climbing.
00:51:08I have it under control.
00:51:09Under control?
00:51:11I don't see any progress in that.
00:51:13You are too distracted.
00:51:15Father, I'll handle my campaign.
00:51:18Father, I'll handle my campaign.
00:51:20Ariel is not the problem.
00:51:22Hopkins' wife is actively involved
00:51:25in women's foundations and charity events,
00:51:28boosting his appeal.
00:51:29If you want to gain ground, Marcus,
00:51:31you need to present the image of a flawless family.
00:51:35Come on.
00:51:44Dress like Claire and join Marcus at campaign events?
00:51:53You won't do it?
00:52:06Father Ariel, she is herself.
00:52:09She's not imitating her sister.
00:52:11She's not gonna pretend to be anyone else
00:52:13in order to win political votes.
00:52:15You ungrateful son of a bitch!
00:52:18We gave you everything!
00:52:20Resources, training, this position!
00:52:24And this? This is how you're gonna disobey us?
00:52:27This is my wife, okay?
00:52:29Insulting her is disrespecting me!
00:52:32Respect?
00:52:35You, you are nothing without the flick name.
00:52:39Nothing!
00:52:43You, you are nothing!
00:52:48Everything that you have here is us!
00:52:51None of your merit!
00:52:52And I am thankful for what you did for me,
00:52:54but I'm not gonna use the people I love
00:52:56to win political games!
00:52:58That is my boundary.
00:52:59A true politician has no soft spots, Marcus.
00:53:03Well, if being a successful politician means
00:53:05using the people I love,
00:53:07then I'll give it all up.
00:53:09How can you say that, Marcus?
00:53:11This is ridiculous!
00:53:14If we'd have known,
00:53:16we never would have picked you up at the orphanage.
00:53:19Ever!
00:53:20Marcus is adopted.
00:53:24Let's go.
00:53:27Well, I'm sorry I wasn't the perfect son!
00:53:34Marcus, he's carried more than I ever realized.
00:53:39Congressman Marcus Flick
00:53:41to deliver inspiring election pep talk
00:53:43in Southern California.
00:53:57Here, for your campaign tomorrow.
00:54:00I already signed it.
00:54:04But the campaign just started,
00:54:05and now you, you want a divorce?
00:54:07You see, somebody called me,
00:54:09and they told me
00:54:11that if you love someone,
00:54:12you do not trap them in a political marriage.
00:54:17Ariel, I thought I was protecting you,
00:54:20but I was just helping myself.
00:54:22I was preventing you from what you wanted.
00:54:25Is that fair?
00:54:27I was preventing you from what you wanted
00:54:29because I thought it was going to hurt you,
00:54:32but I was being a hypocrite.
00:54:36And I'm sorry.
00:54:39This, at least one of us gets to be free.
00:54:47But I was being a hypocrite,
00:54:49and I'm sorry.
00:54:52Now, at least one of us gets to be free.
00:54:57I'm sorry.
00:55:27I'm sorry.
00:55:57Congressman, do you know what a mistake you've made?
00:56:13Congressman, do you know what a mistake you've made?
00:56:16You know, I don't know what I did tonight,
00:56:18but feel free to punish me.
00:56:20What are you saying?
00:56:21Aren't you afraid of being overheard?
00:56:23Ariel, can I talk dirty to my wife?
00:56:26Stop being slick.
00:56:28I, um, I made you a coat for the rally tomorrow.
00:56:33Hope you like it.
00:56:35Wait, a trench coat? Isn't that too flashy?
00:56:37No, the suit cliche thing is so over.
00:56:39People crave more personality these days.
00:56:41I'll do whatever you say, ma'am.
00:56:43Okay, well, I will bring you the coat.
00:56:46I'll see you.
00:56:48And, uh, I miss you.
00:56:52Okay, well, that's enough out of you.
00:56:54Bye.
00:56:56Fine, I miss you, too.
00:56:59Sir, a package arrived for you.
00:57:28Oh, my God.
00:57:31This is Ariel's coat. Where is she?
00:57:33No word yet. She's not answering calls.
00:57:35Well, you need to check her studio right now, okay?
00:57:38I'm on it, Congressman.
00:57:39Your supporters are waiting for you.
00:57:41You need to get on stage now.
00:57:42No, they can wait.
00:57:44I'm gonna go check on Ariel right now, okay?
00:57:46What are you doing?
00:57:48Look, time is gold.
00:57:50You don't want to let your sponsors down, do you?
00:57:55Tom, you're gonna go check on her right now.
00:57:57Tell me if anything changes.
00:58:01Thanks for having me, everybody.
00:58:02Thank you, thank you, thank you.
00:58:04Uh, I think, as dark as it is,
00:58:06we're gonna have a great night, everybody.
00:58:12Oh, my God.
00:58:14There's water everywhere.
00:58:15There's water everywhere.
00:58:16Oh, my God, help!
00:58:21Oh, my God.
00:58:23There's water everywhere.
00:58:24There's water everywhere.
00:58:25Oh, my God, help!
00:58:27Somebody help me!
00:58:29Help, please!
00:58:34Johnny?
00:58:36I don't...
00:58:39Johnny?
00:58:41Johnny, wake up. That's not funny.
00:58:43Johnny, wake up.
00:58:44Oh, my God.
00:58:45Johnny, look at you.
00:58:46This is all your fault.
00:58:47What did you do to Johnny?
00:58:48You're nothing but a curse.
00:58:50Oh, my God, is he breathing?
00:58:52Johnny?
00:58:53Johnny?
00:58:54It's my fault?
00:58:55Can you hear me?
00:58:56It's all your fault.
00:58:57Oh, my God, it's my fault.
00:58:58Oh, my God.
00:58:59Oh, my God.
00:59:00Johnny?
00:59:01Johnny?
00:59:02I didn't do it.
00:59:03I didn't do it.
00:59:04Help!
00:59:05Help!
00:59:14Turn it on.
00:59:21What do you want with me?
00:59:28You'll find out soon enough.
00:59:30Thanks for having me, everybody.
00:59:31Thank you, thank you, thank you.
00:59:39Oh, how sweet.
00:59:42You think the congressman knows his wife is just a breath away from death?
00:59:49Paula, no.
00:59:54Oh, you want me to do it?
00:59:56Fine.
00:59:59You're welcome.
01:00:00No, Marcus, don't answer.
01:00:04My goal is to increase economic growth by 20%,
01:00:08all while tackling homelessness and reducing crime.
01:00:14Sir.
01:00:22Marcus, I'm so sorry.
01:00:24I love you, I like you.
01:00:25No, Ariel, Ariel, where are you?
01:00:27I lied to you about the phone calls.
01:00:29I thought I could protect you.
01:00:32But now I think that maybe if I'd just been honest with you all along,
01:00:34none of this would have ever happened.
01:00:36Ariel, please stay on the phone, okay?
01:00:37Just tell me where you...
01:00:39Come alone, no cops, or she dies.
01:00:47I got to go.
01:00:48Congressman, this is a live mission.
01:00:49What?
01:00:50You can't just leave now.
01:00:53I got to go.
01:01:03Oh, that's so sweet.
01:01:05He's actually abandoning his campaign to save you.
01:01:09No, you can have all my money, just don't make Marcus come here.
01:01:12Shut up.
01:01:16This isn't about money.
01:01:17This is about me and Marcus.
01:01:19You're just the paper.
01:01:22Wait a minute.
01:01:23Your voice.
01:01:25I know your voice.
01:01:27You haven't figured it out by now?
01:01:29It doesn't matter.
01:01:31You'll be dead soon anyway.
01:01:39Ariel!
01:01:53Ariel!
01:01:58Ariel!
01:02:02Ariel, I'm coming!
01:02:07Please.
01:02:09Ariel!
01:02:16Please pick up, please pick up, please pick up, please pick up.
01:02:21Oh, my God.
01:02:29Ariel!
01:02:46Ariel!
01:02:47Ariel!
01:02:48Oh, my God.
01:02:50Ariel!
01:02:51Ariel!
01:02:52Ariel!
01:02:53It's okay, it's okay.
01:02:54Ariel, I'm going to get you home.
01:02:56Let's go.
01:03:02Marcus, behind you!
01:03:14It's you?
01:03:17It's you?
01:03:30It's you?
01:03:33It's you?
01:03:38Well, we were friends.
01:03:40You approached me.
01:03:43After years of digging and searching, I uncovered the real secrets about your perfect marriage.
01:03:49Yeah, I kidnapped you once you got away.
01:03:52You stole my phone, too, so I had to get closer.
01:03:55I joined your campaign team.
01:03:57Marcus, do you ever wonder why you couldn't track the threatening calls you were getting?
01:04:02That's because your culprit was right there on your IT team.
01:04:06How blind can you be?
01:04:12This is all because you're trying to sabotage my campaign?
01:04:15It's not even worth it!
01:04:17Look at my face!
01:04:18Do you even recognize me?
01:04:20Do you know who I am?
01:04:22Of course you don't.
01:04:24Let me remind you.
01:04:26Fifteen years ago, the orphanage, your best friend,
01:04:30the one and only,
01:04:32the one and only,
01:04:35the one and only,
01:04:37Fifteen years ago, the orphanage, your best friend.
01:04:48No.
01:04:51No, no, it can't be.
01:04:53Yeah.
01:04:54Yeah, Marcus, it is.
01:04:58No.
01:05:01No, no, it can't be.
01:05:03Yeah.
01:05:04Yeah, Marcus, it is me.
01:05:06Hey, where's my money, huh?
01:05:08I don't have it.
01:05:09Where's my cash?
01:05:10I don't have anything.
01:05:11Give me my cash!
01:05:12Hey, leave him alone!
01:05:14Leave him alone!
01:05:17You okay?
01:05:19What happened?
01:05:21I don't know.
01:05:22I don't know.
01:05:24You okay?
01:05:26What happened?
01:05:28He called me a fat pig.
01:05:30Ignore them.
01:05:31They're just jerks.
01:05:33Thanks, Marcus.
01:05:34Can I hang out with you?
01:05:36Of course.
01:05:37We're friends now.
01:05:40Sean, what happened to you?
01:05:42You've changed.
01:05:44You recognize me now?
01:05:46Noble congressman?
01:05:47Or should I say you're an orphan nobody wanted?
01:05:50You keep that a secret from your voters, too?
01:05:53Why do you hate me?
01:05:54We were friends.
01:05:55Why do you hate me?
01:05:56Why are you targeting Ariel?
01:05:57Friends?
01:05:58You stole everything from me, Marcus.
01:06:01That stage you parade around on.
01:06:04This life of power and respect belonged to me, not to you.
01:06:12And at first I'd let it go.
01:06:13I wanted to let it go.
01:06:15But every time I turned on the TV,
01:06:17I saw you parading around this perfect life,
01:06:19and it wasn't fair.
01:06:21I chose Marcus.
01:06:22Shut up!
01:06:23The flicks chose me.
01:06:25But on adoption day, yeah, you remember,
01:06:28I got sick from the cake you gave me.
01:06:30I was at the hospital with food poisoning,
01:06:32so they took you instead.
01:06:34Sean, I went back to the orphanage.
01:06:36I spoke to the dean,
01:06:37and he said that you were adopted by a loving family,
01:06:40that you were happy.
01:06:41Happy?
01:06:43I was adopted into a nightmare,
01:06:46a couple that divorced and left me out to rot.
01:06:49What about that is happy?
01:06:53Sean, I'm sorry for what you went through,
01:06:55but revenge is not the way.
01:06:57We've got to figure this out together.
01:06:58Figure it out?
01:06:59What are we going to figure out, Marcus?
01:07:01I spent years suffering watching you live my life.
01:07:05We are never figuring it out.
01:07:12Hold on!
01:07:13Sean, I'm not going to let you fall any further.
01:07:17Come on.
01:07:21Sean.
01:07:23Sean, we don't have to hate each other.
01:07:25Okay, just let it go.
01:07:27I will go to the police.
01:07:28I will explain everything.
01:07:29You don't have to worry about it.
01:07:30Just please,
01:07:32please don't let the hatred consume you.
01:07:38You were always a saint, Marcus.
01:07:40Marcus, look out!
01:07:46Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
01:07:48Are you okay?
01:07:49Perfect.
01:07:51You get to die in front of the one you love the most.
01:07:56My revenge is complete.
01:07:58Okay.
01:07:59Daniel, don't! You don't need to!
01:08:06It's okay.
01:08:07You're okay. Just apply pressure.
01:08:08Don't cry.
01:08:09It's going to be okay. I'm fine.
01:08:10Go ahead.
01:08:11I'm fine.
01:08:13Daniel, you don't need to!
01:08:18It's okay.
01:08:19You're okay. Just apply pressure.
01:08:21Don't cry.
01:08:22It's going to be okay. I'm fine.
01:08:23Go ahead.
01:08:24I need you to apply pressure, okay?
01:08:26I need you to stay with me.
01:08:27I love you,
01:08:31and I need you to hang in there, okay?
01:08:32I love you.
01:08:33Don't say that right now.
01:08:34Please, just hold that for later.
01:08:36We're going to save that later, okay?
01:08:37We're going to get out of here. Do you trust me?
01:08:39I trass you.
01:08:42Then what? Come to the lake! Now! Marcus, look, he's dying!
01:08:56Ariel?
01:08:59Claire?
01:09:02Why are you here?
01:09:03Look, I've been living abroad. Marcus and I have been talking, keeping in touch over the last couple years, and his assistant told me that he was hospitalized. So sorry.
01:09:15I didn't realize you and Marcus still talked. I thought, um...
01:09:19You don't know that... why he married you instead of me?
01:09:31Claire.
01:09:32If you're trying to convince me to stay, don't bother.
01:09:35Claire, I admire your courage to lead the life you want.
01:09:38I don't want to be a pawn for the family's games anymore. I want to be free.
01:09:45I know. I'm not going to hold you back anymore. But you've got to do one thing for me.
01:09:50Can you please tell your parents? Can you please tell them to let Ariel marry me?
01:09:56Marcus chose me?
01:10:00Marcus chose me?
01:10:02He knew that Simone would marry you off for money if he couldn't. He married you to protect you.
01:10:08And if he acted indifferent, it's only because he didn't want you to get too attached.
01:10:13Why didn't he just say that?
01:10:15You know, Marcus, he can't admit his feelings very easily. But his love, it's... it's deeper than anyone's.
01:10:25So... he doesn't know that I've been in love with him since we were children?
01:10:30It's always been you, Ariel. Ever since we were children, it's only ever been you. He's always loved you.
01:10:50Marcus, you really are...
01:10:52Marcus, you really are the dumbest asshole in the world. You know that, right?
01:10:58Why didn't you tell me you married me to protect me? Why were you so cold? Why did you...
01:11:07Why did you pretend you hated me? Because none of it worked.
01:11:14I still love you.
01:11:17Of course I still love you. I need you.
01:11:21You can't leave me, okay?
01:11:28Take this ring.
01:11:31Take it.
01:11:34And put it on my finger again. I just...
01:11:39I need to hear you say that you love me.
01:11:44Marcus.
01:11:51Marcus.
01:12:00Marcus.
01:12:03You're awake.
01:12:13This... this ring wasn't left behind by your sister.
01:12:18It was made custom for you.
01:12:22It's unique just like you.
01:12:25It just wasn't the right time to give it to you before.
01:12:29Because you were mad and... and I'm sorry.
01:12:34Marcus, are you always this overdramatic?
01:12:38Yes. And it's because I think you're the only one who can handle me.
01:12:52This Ariel Rochester...
01:12:57Will you still...
01:13:01Will you still marry me?
01:13:04Yes. I will.
01:13:22Come here.
01:13:34Stop it! Stop! I'm not kidding.
01:13:38Don't be so naughty, Governor.
01:13:41I don't like to be naughty.
01:13:57Thank you. Thank you.
01:14:00I want to take a moment to thank my parents and my campaign team
01:14:06and all my friends out there who've carried me through every challenge.
01:14:10But above all, I want to thank my wife.
01:14:15Ariel Rochester, whose strength, courage and love...
01:14:21I wouldn't be alive without today.
01:14:25This woman is not only my wife,
01:14:28she's the dream that carried me through my childhood
01:14:32and she's the light that pierces my darkest days.
01:14:35Ariel, I love you. Can you hear that?
01:14:40Yes, I can. That includes me.
01:14:44Me too.
