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