00:00:00Hello there, lovely. I am Cleopatra. I'm here to see the Adelina.
00:00:09Do you have an appointment with the Adelina?
00:00:12Um, no, but I do have some designs I'm sure she would love to take a look at.
00:00:18Come back when you have an appointment and stop wasting my time.
00:00:22Look, I really need to sell these designs and I know Adelina will love them. Please, I just need a minute.
00:00:29Lisa, I don't have time for this. Just use the door while I still be nice.
00:00:43Hey, stop!
00:00:45Miss Adelina, I just need a moment from you. I promise I won't waste your time.
00:00:50I'm so sorry. I tried to stop her.
00:00:52Um, close the door.
00:00:54So, what can I help you with?
00:00:56Um...
00:00:57Sit.
00:00:58Well, my name is Cleopatra and...
00:01:03Well, I have these designs I really need to sell and I think it would be worth if you took a look at them.
00:01:16These...
00:01:20These are beautiful.
00:01:23Cleopatra, did you say?
00:01:25Yeah.
00:01:26Why would you want to just sell these? I could... I could give you a job. You could work here with me.
00:01:34No, thank you, Miss Adelina. I really could use the money more than I could use a job right now.
00:01:42Please help me.
00:01:43I really don't want you to waste your talent, but I will buy these.
00:01:48Yeah.
00:01:49If you ever want a job, just reach out. The offer is always open.
00:01:53Thank you. Thank you, Miss Adelina. I hope to see you again, Cleopatra.
00:02:02Absolutely, Pasquale. Do things the best way, okay? And make sure that...
00:02:08Watch where you're going.
00:02:10You watch where you're going.
00:02:13I bet your upbringing was... rough.
00:02:17It really was rough. What makes you say that?
00:02:21Because you're being so rude. You bumped into me.
00:02:24Ah, pretty face. You clearly bumped into me. What would you like me to do now, by the way?
00:02:30Okay, asshole. Apologize!
00:02:34Apologize? You bumped into me and you want me to apologize to you?
00:02:39Yeah.
00:02:40Alessandra apologizes to nobody.
00:02:43What do you mean you don't apologize?
00:02:45It means I am not going to apologize. What are you going to do?
00:02:50Look, I bumped into this girl.
00:02:52Cleopatra takes shit from no one.
00:02:54She's totally crazy and she just bumped...
00:03:00We'll meet again, pretty face.
00:03:05Hey, Salvatore, come in.
00:03:10Please, take a seat.
00:03:11Thanks, boss.
00:03:13Try this vino. This here, my uncle, he surpassed himself. This is so good.
00:03:21That's a good wine.
00:03:22Is it?
00:03:23Yeah.
00:03:24Do you know why you're here, Salvatore?
00:03:26No, boss.
00:03:28You don't, don't you?
00:03:29No.
00:03:31Well, I invited you in, Salvatore. I wanted to talk to you.
00:03:34Okay.
00:03:36How dare you? How dare you steal him from me?
00:03:41No one steals from the boss.
00:03:43Please, have mercy on me, boss. Please.
00:03:47Please, I wasn't thinking straight.
00:03:58You only have the benefits of being this family's consigliere, Salvatore. Nothing else.
00:04:03You know the rules.
00:04:04Yes, boss. Yes, yes. I'll have the money to you, okay? No matter what.
00:04:07No matter what.
00:04:09And now do you think you're going to pay me back?
00:04:12Boss, give me some time. I need to sell some properties and I promise I'll have the money to you, okay?
00:04:22I give you three days.
00:04:25Three days. No more. Get out.
00:04:29Thanks, boss. I'll be back with the money, okay?
00:04:31Get out.
00:04:38Donna, Donna, please help me. I need your help. I'm in big trouble with the boss.
00:04:44What is it this time, Salvatore? You are always getting into trouble.
00:04:48Please, just help me this one time and I promise I won't be trouble ever again.
00:04:53Well, what is it? I can't help you until you tell me what you've done.
00:04:58Start talking.
00:05:00I may have stolen some money from the boss. Please, Donna, help me. I've got no way of paying it back.
00:05:06You know the rules, Salvatore. You don't steal from the Don himself.
00:05:11I know, Donna, but please help me. This will be the last time. Promise.
00:05:18I have an idea, but I'm not sure how you'll take it.
00:05:23I'll do anything, Donna. Anything.
00:05:27I've been searching for a wife for Alessandro, but I haven't found one that fit in there.
00:05:34Okay.
00:05:39I know Cleopatra will be a perfect match for him.
00:05:44Go home and talk to her, and depending on what she decides, if she agrees, your debt will be wiped off automatically.
00:05:54Well, that's a very generous offer, Donna.
00:05:57Yes, it is. So go home and let me know her answer tomorrow.
00:06:02Thank you, Donna. Thank you so much. I'll be back tomorrow with an answer, okay? I'll go now.
00:06:08I'll expect you tomorrow.
00:06:16Cleopatra!
00:06:19Cleopatra!
00:06:22Where the hell is that girl?
00:06:24Cleopatra, where are you?
00:06:25Cleopatra, where are you?
00:06:31Thank goodness you're here. I've been looking all over for you. Where have you been?
00:06:35I just went for a walk. What do you need me for?
00:06:38Cleopatra, you need to save the family.
00:06:41What are you talking about, Salvatore?
00:06:44We're in debt, Cleopatra, and now my life is at stake.
00:06:47Well, that's funny, because I don't remember spending any money with you. I know we don't have any money, so how is your debt my problem?
00:06:53Look, the money was spent on something important, alright?
00:06:57How was it? What exactly did you spend that money on?
00:07:00Look, stop questioning me, Cleopatra.
00:07:02No, you know what? I deserve to know what's going on.
00:07:07I said stop questioning me! Now you prepare yourself to go out with me tomorrow, alright? We have some people to meet.
00:07:16Yes, Father.
00:07:18Good girl.
00:07:23Good girl.
00:07:42Alessandro, come.
00:07:54Marriage is essential for you to reach your full potential.
00:07:58I don't want to have this conversation right now.
00:08:01But why do you deny my chance to see grandchildren?
00:08:05Look, Donna, I cannot give a woman what you and your husband had. I just can't love anyone.
00:08:14But you'll think differently when you're married.
00:08:16I hate the idea of spending the rest of my life with some strange woman I don't even know.
00:08:22But the Don needs a wife.
00:08:24And you're right. I am the Don. So no one tells me what to do.
00:08:30But that's the rule, and you can't bend the rules, Alessandro. The Mafia needs their Donna.
00:08:37And what if I don't do it? What's going to happen? Will I get replaced?
00:08:40Alessandro Moretti.
00:08:41Alright, alright, fine. I'll do it.
00:08:46I've been speaking to Salvatore.
00:08:50Salvatore?
00:08:52Yes, he has a beautiful daughter. And I wish for you to marry her.
00:08:57Well, I see you have her already all planned out.
00:09:00She's quite a beauty, and I'm sure you'll like her.
00:09:03Whatever, whatever. Let me see her.
00:09:08Whatever, whatever. Let me see her tomorrow and I will decide if I really want to do this.
00:09:14Of course. I'll call Salvatore immediately and inform him.
00:09:18But for now, you go and freshen up. I've made your favourite dinner.
00:09:23Thank you, Marlene.
00:09:26Grazie.
00:09:34Freedom, here I come.
00:09:37Cleopatra.
00:09:45Cleopatra.
00:09:48Running away won't solve anything.
00:09:51Okay, look, I remember you, but I don't think we were this close.
00:09:55No, cara mia. You can't avoid your fate.
00:09:58Now you're coming with me.
00:10:00Let go of me.
00:10:02No, Cleopatra. You're coming with me as you're now betrothed to me.
00:10:05You must be delusional, man.
00:10:07Yes, I must be delusional if I'm here in the street with you doing this.
00:10:11Let go of me. I have a flight to catch.
00:10:14What are you doing?
00:10:28No, I did not sign up for any of this.
00:10:32Why are you doing this to me? I don't even know you.
00:10:38Look, Cleopatra, your father has some debt to pay, and apparently your weight is only weighed out of it.
00:10:47So, this is about Salvatore's debt.
00:10:51That is right.
00:10:56Well, what about my plans?
00:10:59Cleopatra, I wish it wasn't like this. I never planned any of this for either of us.
00:11:19Get out.
00:11:21The only place I'm going is the airport.
00:11:24Get out.
00:11:25Cheng, grab her bags.
00:11:41What is this place?
00:11:45This is my home.
00:11:47You're meeting my mother tomorrow morning for breakfast.
00:11:50And what happens if I don't want to be there?
00:11:53Well, she wants to meet you to discuss our wedding.
00:11:57What makes you think I want to marry you?
00:12:01Your fate is sealed with me, Cleo.
00:12:05You don't get to call me that. I don't even know your name.
00:12:21This is your room.
00:12:24You can stay here tonight.
00:12:26First thing tomorrow morning, I will send a beautiful new dress for you to wear at breakfast so you can meet my mother.
00:12:34And by the way, I'm Alessandra.
00:12:40Sleep well.
00:12:45Oh, sorry.
00:12:47Alessandra, the dawn.
00:12:55What has my father done this time?
00:13:04Cleopatra, my dear, welcome to our home. I am so glad you are here.
00:13:10Thank you so much, Donna.
00:13:12Thank you for the privilege, Donna.
00:13:14I hope you had a good night's sleep, my dear.
00:13:17Yes, I did. Thank you.
00:13:19Come through.
00:13:24Come and sit down and we can wait for Alessandra to join us.
00:13:28Thank you, Donna.
00:13:30Oh, come on. You can call me mother now.
00:13:35Okay. Thank you, mother.
00:13:38I'm so happy to have you here as my daughter-in-law.
00:13:41You're just the right person for my son.
00:13:45So, Donna, has my debt been cleared yet or what?
00:13:48Oh, come on, Salvatore. Read the book. We can discuss this later.
00:13:53Cleo, darling, I'm just so glad that you're here and thank you for agreeing to this.
00:14:01Ah, Don.
00:14:03Cleo, what say after this meal we go shopping for some dresses for the engagement party?
00:14:08After this meal we go shopping for some dresses for the engagement party later with the family?
00:14:17Yeah, that sounds like a really good idea.
00:14:20Hey, Salvatore. Let the girl speak for herself.
00:14:24I'll go dress shopping with you, mother.
00:14:27That's wonderful. That's settled. Let's just eat this meal and we can leave after then.
00:14:32Make sure that you get whatever you need today. The wedding is in two days.
00:14:37Two days? That's way too fast.
00:14:43I couldn't care less, seeing that we're not getting married for love anyway.
00:14:48Sandra?
00:14:52Cleo, darling, could you look at me?
00:14:55I promise that this wedding will be the best wedding ever. I promise you.
00:15:01Oh, Cleo, darling, come in.
00:15:05Ah, yes. Donna mentioned that you'd be coming in today.
00:15:08We are going to make today so special for you, okay?
00:15:12Thank you, Miss Adelina.
00:15:15You have nothing to worry about. And I just knew that I would be seeing you again.
00:15:19Now, this is one of your creations and I would love you to have it.
00:15:26A gift for your special day.
00:15:28Adelina, it's beautiful.
00:15:31Well, you did design it.
00:15:33But I sold you these designs. I couldn't passively.
00:15:38I would love you to have it, okay? I understand, but you deserve it.
00:15:43I want you to feel so special today.
00:15:48Have you thought any more about that collaboration offer?
00:15:51To be honest, Adelina, I'm just not sure.
00:15:54That's okay. We don't need to decide now. Let us go and try on the dress.
00:16:12To family harmony.
00:16:14To the family, my dears.
00:16:16Salute a tutti.
00:16:18Come on, everyone. Up and dance. Come on.
00:16:21Alessandro, why are we doing this?
00:16:24Look, I don't want to do this either, okay?
00:16:27I just can't wait for this dance to be over already.
00:16:30Why did you even decide to marry me? Clearly, you don't like me.
00:16:35It's not you, Cleopatra, that I don't like. I just... I can't love any woman.
00:16:41Why get married at all?
00:16:43I don't know.
00:16:44It's not you that I don't like. I just... I can't love any woman.
00:16:49Why get married at all?
00:16:51I'm only doing it for my family's sake, which you are now part of.
00:16:57What about you? What do you want?
00:17:00Family comes first.
00:17:02Why drag me into this?
00:17:04Enough, woman. Ask your father these questions.
00:17:08Geez, I didn't realize you were so sensitive.
00:17:15I see you have a big personality. Let's see where that lands you.
00:17:21You're no fun, Alessandro.
00:17:28Do not mess with me.
00:17:36It's his deal.
00:17:45Where am I? Oh, Donna.
00:17:49Come, Cleopatra. Let me show you to your room.
00:17:52Thank you, Donna.
00:17:54Here it is. You'll find everything you need right here.
00:17:59Thank you, Donna.
00:18:15So...
00:18:19Where should I go, Alessandro?
00:18:24You can sleep on the couch, if you like.
00:18:28But... we're married.
00:18:33Yes, we are. For a time.
00:18:36You know, I may be new to this life, but I'm not going to play by your stupid rules.
00:18:43You are crazier than I thought, you know that?
00:18:47You can sleep on the couch. I am not.
00:19:06I am not.
00:19:22Here she is. The blushing bride.
00:19:26How was your first night, my darling?
00:19:29It was an interesting experience.
00:19:32Cleopatra, please elaborate. I'd like to know everything.
00:19:36Well, it was amazing. Your son is very romantic.
00:19:42Really? And how was the intimacy?
00:19:48Let's just say Alessandro is a talented man.
00:19:53Cleopatra, you do have a way with words.
00:19:57I strive to please, Donna.
00:19:59Tell me a little bit more about the romance and the passion.
00:20:04Donna, something should be kept between a husband and a wife.
00:20:09Fair enough. She wants to keep her secrets to herself.
00:20:17Just know that we're embarking on this new adventure together.
00:20:22Buongiorno, principessa.
00:20:25Madre, good morning.
00:20:29This is my favorite.
00:20:31So it sounds like I am a romantic, huh?
00:20:37Mother, can you deal with him?
00:20:40Well, I can't. I'm here when I'm overheard.
00:20:43Oh, God.
00:20:45Alessandro, how was your first night with your wife?
00:20:49Madre, a gentleman never kisses and tells.
00:20:53For once, I agree with you.
00:20:55Adelina!
00:20:57Cleopatra, my dear. Oh, it is so wonderful to see you.
00:21:03And oh, look at that ring. Is that sapphire?
00:21:07Oh, gorgeous.
00:21:09I just wanted to come by and thank you again for the dress.
00:21:14It was stunning.
00:21:16It was nothing. It was the least that I could do for such a talent as you.
00:21:20So tell me, how is married life going?
00:21:25It's taking some time to get used to.
00:21:29Alessandro is such a piece of work.
00:21:33Adjustments can be difficult.
00:21:37Especially in this world.
00:21:40But you know that you always have a friend in me if you need to talk to someone, okay?
00:21:45Thank you, Adelina.
00:21:46It's just...
00:21:49Alessandro is nothing like what I thought he'd be.
00:21:54It's always hard when people that we love turn out to be different to how we thought.
00:22:02Yeah.
00:22:06Your gown. It was amazing. It made me feel like a queen.
00:22:11Your gown. It was amazing. It made me feel like a queen.
00:22:16Even if it was just for the night.
00:22:18Well, you designed it.
00:22:20And you deserve to feel like that every day, Cleo.
00:22:23You do. You really do.
00:22:27So, I hope you're not wasting this talent of yours. What are your plans?
00:22:33Plans? I have zero clue what I'm doing.
00:22:38How did you make all this happen?
00:22:42It was... challenging, to say the least, but...
00:22:48I'll tell you something, Cleo.
00:22:51Beauty is not about the clothes that we wear. That's part of it.
00:22:58But it's also about the way that we carry ourselves.
00:23:04You're... you're right.
00:23:06You're right.
00:23:08And...
00:23:11I want to work with you, Adelina. I want to work with you so bad.
00:23:16But, Cleo, that makes me so happy to hear. But you need to talk to your husband, okay?
00:23:22Tell him your dreams. Show him your designs. And he might surprise you, okay?
00:23:28You hold your head up high.
00:23:31Thanks, Adelina.
00:23:37Who's this?
00:23:39Congratulations on your recent marriage, Alessandro. What a happy event.
00:23:47Cut the pleasantries. What do you want?
00:23:50I just thought you should know happiness cannot last forever. Watch your back, Don Alessandro.
00:23:59Whoever you are, you just made a grave mistake.
00:24:03Oh, I'm sure we'll be in touch, Don Alessandro.
00:24:08Who are you?
00:24:10I'll leave you to figure that out. Oh, I almost forgot. Tell Cleo the color yellow looks good on her.
00:24:26Cleopatra.
00:24:28Alessandro!
00:24:30Hey.
00:24:32Are you okay?
00:24:34Yeah. Yes, I'm okay. Just business. Nothing to concern you.
00:24:40Are you sure?
00:24:42Yes. Yes, I have it under control. Don't worry.
00:24:46Okay. Good night.
00:24:48Good night.
00:24:56What do you want, Salvatore?
00:24:59My dear Cleopatra. My dear stepdaughter. Always straight to the point. Take a seat.
00:25:11Now, you know you're very lucky that you married into such a wealthy family.
00:25:16What do you want from me?
00:25:19Thing is, I have some debts that need settling.
00:25:22And I thought that maybe with your newfound wealth, you could help out dear old Salvatore.
00:25:29You've got to be kidding me. You're the reason I'm in this mess in the first place.
00:25:34You watch your tone there, Cleopatra. Family help family out, okay? It's a simple concept.
00:25:40Family? You've never been my family. You've never even cared about me.
00:25:46You may have married into wealth, but never forget where you came from.
00:25:50Now, I need you to get me that money.
00:25:53I don't have any money. Alessandro has the money.
00:25:58You left me penniless, remember?
00:26:01I remember. Yeah, I remember.
00:26:04Get the money from your husband then.
00:26:08I don't have access to his money.
00:26:12You're lying. Stop lying.
00:26:14You get me that money. I need that money. Get it to me quickly.
00:26:18Cleopatra, my dear, are you all right?
00:26:22I'm okay, Donna. I'm just exhausted.
00:26:27Darling, I'm here if you need me, all right?
00:26:37Alessandro.
00:26:39Yes?
00:26:41Alessandro, don't just stand there.
00:26:44What would you like me to do, Mother?
00:26:46Go to your wife. Look at her. Look.
00:26:50I'm doing some work.
00:26:52Alessandro.
00:26:54All right, fine. I'll do it.
00:26:58Cleopatra has a message for you.
00:27:15I don't get it.
00:27:17I don't get it.
00:27:19I don't get it.
00:27:21I don't get it.
00:27:22Cleopatra, have you been thinking about our collaboration?
00:27:29I, um...
00:27:32Cleo? Are you okay?
00:27:36I'm just having a really hard day.
00:27:42I'm so sorry.
00:27:45Um, can we talk about this tomorrow?
00:27:50Of course, whatever you need. I'll just be at the fashion house, so come by whenever you're ready to chat, okay?
00:27:57Thanks.
00:28:09Cleopatra, is that you?
00:28:13Um...
00:28:14Oh, come here, darling! It is so good to see you!
00:28:18How... how... Cleo, what's happened to your face?
00:28:23It's... it's just an accident. Don't... don't worry about it.
00:28:26Accident? That... that doesn't look like an accident.
00:28:30What aren't you telling me? Did... did Alessandro do this to you?
00:28:34No, no, Alessandro would never. It was just an accident. Let's drop it.
00:28:39I need to know that you are okay.
00:28:42I'm fine.
00:28:43Who did this? You can tell me. It's safe.
00:28:50It was... it was my stepfather.
00:28:54Salvatore?
00:28:55Salvatore. And he's... he's been asking for money, and when I didn't give him any, he got violent and...
00:29:03Why is he asking you for money?
00:29:08Well, when I was younger, he married my mother after my father passed away.
00:29:16And now that she's gone too, he started drinking, and he's a really angry drunk.
00:29:28Cleo, I had no idea. I'm so sorry.
00:29:32And he just keeps demanding this money and threatening me, and I...
00:29:39I just don't know what to do anymore.
00:29:44Well, you always can come here. You can always talk to me, okay?
00:29:51You don't have to hide anything, and you don't have to go this alone.
00:29:56You don't have to go through this alone, okay? Look at me.
00:30:00We're in this together, okay? It'll be okay.
00:30:04Thank you. Thank you. I... I guess I just need someone to understand.
00:30:12I'm always here for you.
00:30:15And I think I have something that might help you feel a little bit better.
00:30:21This could be the start of our new collection together.
00:30:26It's beautiful. You're so talented.
00:30:29Oh, well, I think with the two of us working on it, that we could make something wonderful for all the world to see.
00:30:38I can't wait to make more designs for this collection.
00:30:41You have such great talent, Cleo. Remember that, okay?
00:30:46Thank you, Adelino. I'm so proud of you.
00:31:00No, no, no.
00:31:03Cleopatra. Hey.
00:31:05Cleopatra.
00:31:07I won't do it again.
00:31:08Hey, darling.
00:31:09Be quiet.
00:31:10Shh. It's okay. It's okay. It's just a dream. It's just a dream.
00:31:15It's me.
00:31:17Alessandro felt so real.
00:31:19I know. I know. It's okay. I got you. It's just a dream. Okay?
00:31:29It felt so real.
00:31:31I know. It's only a dream. You're gonna be okay. Okay?
00:31:36Okay.
00:31:38Go back to sleep.
00:31:39Please don't leave me.
00:31:40No, I'll be here. I'll be here.
00:31:45I'll be here.
00:31:56Buongiorno.
00:31:59Hey.
00:32:00Good morning, Alessandro.
00:32:02Good morning to you, Cleopatra.
00:32:09Did you sleep well?
00:32:11I did, actually. Thank you.
00:32:15So, what is the weirdest dream you've ever had?
00:32:21Weirdest dream?
00:32:23Well, I had this dream that I was, like, floating on a cloud of cotton candy.
00:32:32That was pretty weird.
00:32:34It's funny you say that.
00:32:37Mine was the same, but on a giant pizza slice.
00:32:43Of course it was.
00:32:45Okay, okay. Your turn.
00:32:47What's the weirdest thing you've done when you thought no one was watching?
00:32:54Okay, I got this one.
00:32:56I was once dancing salsa in the kitchen while making pasta.
00:33:02That's weird.
00:33:03So weird. Don't ask me why. I don't even know why that happened.
00:33:09Well, I better go, Alessandro.
00:33:11Of course.
00:33:18So, how did you two sleep last night?
00:33:22Very well, thank you.
00:33:25Oh, love is a beautiful thing, isn't it?
00:33:28Oh, Mother, please.
00:33:30Oh, come on. And don't forget to eat.
00:33:32Now, Cleopatra, I have a little surprise for you this morning.
00:33:37A surprise?
00:33:39A shopping spree!
00:33:41Oh, O'Donoghue, you really don't have to...
00:33:44Oh, nonsense. Every girl deserves to go on a shopping spree.
00:33:49Alessandro, you've got some time to take it today, don't you?
00:33:52Well, I actually have some work I have to attend to.
00:33:54Oh, nonsense. Work can wait.
00:33:57Spend some time with your wife. You two deserve to have some time together.
00:34:02Well, I'm guessing a few hours won't hurt.
00:34:06It's settled. Have a lovely day, you two.
00:34:10Grazie, Mother.
00:34:14Alessandro, today has been amazing.
00:34:17It really has. I'm glad you had your time.
00:34:21I can't believe that gown is going to be mine.
00:34:26It is annoying that your size wasn't available, but Pasquale will pick one up and he will bring it to the house.
00:34:33Alessandro, you're surprisingly really good at this.
00:34:36Well, I do have an eye for quality.
00:34:48Alessandro, my friend, Cleopatra looks good in that denim dress.
00:34:54Who are you? Where are you?
00:34:57Your choice of boutiques is impeccable, and Cleopatra's taste is exquisite.
00:35:04But remember, elegance can be deceiving. Enjoy your day, Alessandro.
00:35:12Alessandro, who was that? What are they talking about?
00:35:17Well, I'm not sure about that. Someone who likes playing games, apparently.
00:35:22But don't worry, we'll figure this out together, Amore.
00:35:28Cleopatra
00:35:32What are you doing here?
00:35:34Cleopatra, my dear. You seem to have done well for yourself.
00:35:39Thank you, Salvatore.
00:35:42Now don't get smart. How long before I get my money?
00:35:50Don't get cocky, alright?
00:35:52Salvatore!
00:35:53Now where's the rest of the money?
00:35:56Oh, my dear girl, I've missed you so much.
00:35:59Come in, the table is set.
00:36:05Salvatore, it's been too long. I'm glad you could join us.
00:36:09Thank you, Donna. It's a pleasure being here again. It's beautiful.
00:36:12Cleopatra, is everything okay?
00:36:15Of course, Alessandro. I'm just a bit tired.
00:36:22So, boss, how's business going?
00:36:24Ah, Salvatore, Salvatore. That is not your concern. Watch what you say.
00:36:30Alessandro, behave!
00:36:38Well, thank you all for the lovely dinner. I'll be back next time.
00:36:43You have two days to get my money.
00:36:50Lee
00:36:51Lee
00:37:10Boss, your wife was involved in an accident.
00:37:14What happened?
00:37:15She fell at Adelita's fashion house. She is...
00:37:22Oh, you really must be more careful, Cleo.
00:37:25Adelita...
00:37:26Fashion can be a battlefield.
00:37:28It's just a sprain. Let's not get dramatic.
00:37:36Alessandro again.
00:37:39Alessandro's Fashion Rescue, how may I assist you?
00:37:44Is Cleopatra okay? I've been trying to reach her. What happened?
00:37:48He is fine.
00:37:49Give me the phone.
00:37:50Your knight in shining armour awaits.
00:37:53Yeah, Alessandro, I don't know what Adelita's been telling you, but I'm fine.
00:37:57She's taking good care of me.
00:38:01She's fine. But hurry, your damsel awaits.
00:38:08You're ridiculous.
00:38:09Sorry, I couldn't help myself.
00:38:12Now let's look at this ankle.
00:38:16Just keep icing it.
00:38:19And this is the restaurant I was telling you about. Please come through.
00:38:24Wow.
00:38:27A special place for a very special woman.
00:38:31Thank you, Alessandro. This place is beautiful.
00:38:34I'm glad you like it.
00:38:39Oh, and if you are unsure, I would highly recommend the lasagna. It's my favourite.
00:38:45I'll have to take you up on that.
00:38:49Are you nervous, Clara?
00:38:55A little. This is actually my first date ever.
00:39:01Your first date? I'm on it. Thank you.
00:39:09Oh, please.
00:39:13Thank you, please.
00:39:18It's a very, very authentic recipe.
00:39:27Tell me something about yourself, something that I don't know yet.
00:39:32Well, this is my first date ever, but I've always dreamed of moments like this.
00:39:43Now you are living the dream.
00:39:45Yeah.
00:39:57This lasagna is amazing. You have excellent taste.
00:40:11I really love the fashion industry, but sometimes it's a lot of pressure.
00:40:17It's really fast-paced and it's just too much.
00:40:21I totally agree. It's a rough world out there.
00:40:24Tell me about it.
00:40:25I love a nice chess game. What I don't like is when people betray their family.
00:40:34Wait, wait, wait. You play chess?
00:40:38I do. And if you allow me, I play very well too.
00:40:43Sure.
00:40:47Thank you for this beautiful date, Alessandro.
00:40:51The pleasure is mine.
00:40:55And there will be many more dates to come in the future.
00:41:00To us.
00:41:01To us.
00:41:15Alessandro, are you okay?
00:41:17I've been receiving ominous messages, Cleopatra.
00:41:20Messages? But why?
00:41:23You have to understand, in our world, even just existing can be a threat to other families.
00:41:30And that compromises the balance of power between rivals.
00:41:34These messages, what do they say?
00:41:37Warnings. They've been watching us.
00:41:40We can't let them intimidate us, Alessandro. What do we do?
00:41:45We stick together. But we have to be extra cautious.
00:41:53I... I knew entering your world would be difficult and dangerous, but I won't let fear dictate our lives.
00:42:02My immediate associates are all fine and clean.
00:42:07But you have to be careful, even with the people you trust.
00:42:13Alessandro, let them come. We won't back down.
00:42:19The wrong family to mess with.
00:42:23Sure.
00:42:43I, uh, brought you the money.
00:42:47Ah, my dear Cleopatra.
00:42:50Always so resourceful.
00:42:52There... there should be enough in there. Can we put this behind us, please?
00:43:00The money needs to keep flowing like a river, not just drops into my hands.
00:43:05You're not out of the woods yet.
00:43:06I'm trying my best, Salvatore. I need more time.
00:43:13You know, time is a luxury that I just can't afford.
00:43:16Why do you have to be like this?
00:43:19You know, my mother would be turning in her grave if she saw how you've been treating me.
00:43:26This is the nature of our agreement, okay? Don't you forget it.
00:43:31Now do better next time, because the money needs to keep coming, needs to keep flowing.
00:43:37Now get out of here.
00:43:46Salvatore.
00:43:47Salvatore.
00:44:13Where have you been?
00:44:14Do you realize how worried I was?
00:44:17I'm sorry, Salvatore. I...
00:44:21I'm sorry, Alessandro. I lost track of time.
00:44:25Are you okay?
00:44:27You look like you've been through hell. What's happening?
00:44:33I went to Salvatore's to give him the money, but he wasn't satisfied.
00:44:38Hey, you went to Salvatore to give him the money. What are you talking about? Did he hurt you?
00:44:49It just won't end. I don't know how to deal with this all on my own.
00:44:54Come here. It's okay. Tell me everything.
00:44:59Tell me everything.
00:45:03He's been in my life since my mother remarried, and his deaths are mine, and it's just a never-ending nightmare.
00:45:14It's okay. It's okay. I'll take care of you, okay?
00:45:18You don't have to do this alone. We face Salvatore together, okay?
00:45:24I won't let him control your life anymore.
00:45:28Come here.
00:45:39Yes.
00:45:43Tell me everything.
00:45:46Well, Benigno, that's getting you updated.
00:45:50I won't even realize what's been hitting him.
00:46:05Salvatore, you're surprised to see me.
00:46:08Alessandro, please. There's a misunderstanding. Please, Alessandro.
00:46:13You dared to harm my wife, brother, and that's a line you shouldn't have crossed.
00:46:18No, no, no, no, no!
00:46:24Stop, please!
00:46:26Salvatore, your intentions don't mean...
00:46:31Let's probably keep on going.
00:46:33Stop!
00:46:36Please, Alessandro, please!
00:46:38Sorry!
00:46:40Next time you get close to my wife, I'll kill you myself.
00:46:55I can't believe we're doing this, Adelina.
00:46:58Merging our brands is going to create something amazing.
00:47:02I can't believe we're doing this, Adelina.
00:47:04Merging our brands is going to create something amazing.
00:47:08Oh, Cleopatra, I am so excited to have you on board, but we need to think of a name.
00:47:14Something that encapsulates the essence of both our styles.
00:47:18A name.
00:47:22I've been doing some brainstorming, and I was thinking...
00:47:28Ethereal Charm.
00:47:32I like it. It's nice, but it doesn't quite encapsulate both our styles.
00:47:40None of you got it.
00:47:42How about...
00:47:46Couture and Harmony.
00:47:49Oh, couture! I like it, but...
00:47:53I don't know, it's just not quite right.
00:47:55No, it's not quite right.
00:47:57It's harder than I thought, but...
00:47:59How about...
00:48:02Sonata Patterns.
00:48:04I do like that. That's unique.
00:48:06You don't like that.
00:48:07It's exotic. I do like it. I just think whatever we pick, it has to feel authentic.
00:48:13It has to sound like it's you and I.
00:48:16I know what you're saying, Cleo.
00:48:20Okay, okay. I think I might have it.
00:48:23So there's two of us.
00:48:25We can be the exquisite duo.
00:48:28Duo.
00:48:30That is very us, but...
00:48:33I don't know. Can you sew that in the back of clothes?
00:48:35Exquisite duo.
00:48:37This is true.
00:48:39Oh, Cleo, what do you think?
00:48:42Giving you all my ideas.
00:48:46I think I got it.
00:48:49Tell me.
00:48:53Synergy.
00:48:55Synergy.
00:48:56Synergy.
00:48:58Synergy. I love that.
00:49:00Cleopatra, it has this seamless blend of both of our creative forces.
00:49:05That is perfect. I want to sign off on this right away.
00:49:10Okay, I'll put my name here.
00:49:12I can't believe we're making it official.
00:49:14Helena and Cleopatra.
00:49:16Synergy.
00:49:18Synergy.
00:49:23It's perfect.
00:49:26I can't believe we're doing this.
00:49:30I think this has to be one of our first designs.
00:49:33It's beautiful.
00:49:34That was one of the first designs that you gave me when you came into my office.
00:49:39It's how I knew that you had talent.
00:49:41Yes.
00:49:43This is why we're such good friends.
00:49:46Everybody, if I could just have your attention for a moment.
00:49:50Let's raise our glasses to Synergy.
00:49:53To a future filled with groundbreaking design.
00:49:57To Synergy.
00:49:58To Synergy.
00:50:02This journey would not have been possible without all of you.
00:50:07Your belief in our brand has been the cornerstone of our success.
00:50:15To all of you.
00:50:16To all of you.
00:50:18Oh.
00:50:22A delivery?
00:50:26Oh.
00:50:27I know who this is from.
00:50:29To the inspiring women behind Synergy.
00:50:33Your magic knows no bounds.
00:50:36Proud and in love.
00:50:39Alessandro.
00:50:44That is very beautiful.
00:50:47Look at us.
00:50:51And to think, if I never barged into your office that day.
00:50:55Oh.
00:50:57I knew right when I saw you that we had a bright future together, Adelina.
00:51:02And look at the bright, creative talent that you have brought into Adelina's Fashion House.
00:51:07We can take our designs into the world together.
00:51:12Working with a talent like you, Adelina, it's been so inspiring.
00:51:17Well, I can say the same for you.
00:51:19It's like our visions just blend seamlessly and just create something magic.
00:51:25Synergy.
00:51:27I have something for you.
00:51:31It's just little.
00:51:32It's a symbol for you to wear to remind you of everything we have achieved.
00:51:36Don't open it now.
00:51:37Oh, Adelina.
00:51:41And thank you for believing in me.
00:51:44Always.
00:51:47Now, let's get back to our party.
00:51:53To Synergy!
00:51:54To Synergy!
00:51:56Woo!
00:52:03Hey.
00:52:04Hey.
00:52:09Do you like all you see?
00:52:15Can I have my shirt?
00:52:18Yeah, yeah, of course.
00:52:25Hey, I, uh...
00:52:29Can I kiss you?
00:52:35No.
00:52:42Alessandro.
00:52:45Let's do that again.
00:52:49Make sure that you breathe this time.
00:52:52Good.
00:53:03I love you.
00:53:12I've never been more sure of anything in my life.
00:53:17I love you, Alessandro.
00:53:22I care for you.
00:53:25Very much.
00:53:27But...
00:53:29Love.
00:53:32Love is a complicated thing for me.
00:53:52Good morning.
00:53:54Morning.
00:54:01I guess the next thing, Cleo, is you see this dress here.
00:54:05I thought that I'd finished it, but I just feel like I haven't.
00:54:09I'm sorry.
00:54:11I'm sorry.
00:54:13I'm sorry.
00:54:15I'm sorry.
00:54:17I'm sorry.
00:54:19I'm sorry.
00:54:21I feel like it is missing something and I can't put my finger on it.
00:54:24What do you think?
00:54:25This dress, Cleo.
00:54:27Oh, um...
00:54:29Sorry, what was the question?
00:54:34What is going on, Cleo?
00:54:36You look like something's happened.
00:54:39Look.
00:54:41Last night, Alessandro and I...
00:54:45shared something special.
00:54:47And...
00:54:48afterwards...
00:54:49I told him that I loved him, but he didn't say it back.
00:54:53Cleo.
00:54:54After you confessed your love.
00:54:57Right!
00:54:58It's like he regretted it or something.
00:55:00Or...
00:55:01maybe he's just processing things.
00:55:04And...
00:55:05he just needs some time to come around.
00:55:07I don't know.
00:55:08I hope you're right.
00:55:10Arranged marriages can be hard.
00:55:13He might just need some time to get used to it.
00:55:17I just wish Alessandro would show me...
00:55:20the real him.
00:55:21Not this facade.
00:55:24Anyway.
00:55:25Let me help you with that dress.
00:55:27Okay.
00:55:28So...
00:55:30I was thinking...
00:55:32I just needed your thoughts.
00:55:43Oh!
00:55:44Sorry, I didn't mean to startle you there, miss.
00:55:47What can I help you with?
00:55:49Are you okay?
00:55:50Yeah, just...
00:55:51a long day.
00:55:52What can I get you?
00:55:53Well, I'm after a shirt and a suit...
00:55:55for my cousin Vinny's wedding on the weekend, so...
00:55:58something silky, fresh.
00:56:00It's summer.
00:56:01Yeah, yeah, we can do that.
00:56:03Do you want to try...
00:56:05that?
00:56:06Beautiful.
00:56:07Beautiful, thank you.
00:56:15Okay, so...
00:56:16the suit...
00:56:17doesn't fit.
00:56:18That's alright, I got one back at home.
00:56:20But, love the shirt.
00:56:21You'll take this one?
00:56:22Take it.
00:56:26Thanks for...
00:56:27brightening my mood.
00:56:29It's alright.
00:56:30Just a...
00:56:31a fun guy.
00:56:32That's what the boys down in Jersey tell me.
00:56:35Well, I should keep you around.
00:56:37What's your name anyway?
00:56:39Hold on.
00:56:40Let's...
00:56:41make a deal.
00:56:42I'll tell you my name...
00:56:44on our second meeting.
00:56:45Our second meeting?
00:56:47Playing hard to get all of a sudden?
00:56:49Trust me, it'll be worth the wait.
00:56:51Besides, it adds a touch of mystery, don't you think?
00:56:54Well, it was nice meeting you anyway.
00:56:56Take care.
00:56:59God, his voice was...
00:57:00so...
00:57:08Hello?
00:57:09Hello, Salvatore.
00:57:12I trust I have your attention.
00:57:15Who is this?
00:57:16What do you want?
00:57:17Names are irrelevant for now.
00:57:20What matters...
00:57:21is a business proposition.
00:57:24I have an interest in someone close to you.
00:57:27Cleopatra.
00:57:28What do you want?
00:57:30I want you to facilitate her disappearance.
00:57:34No harm...
00:57:35will come to her if you follow my instructions precisely.
00:57:39And why should I trust you?
00:57:41Trust...
00:57:42is a luxury...
00:57:44Salvatore.
00:57:45But I assure you...
00:57:46I have the means to make both our lives easier...
00:57:50and much...
00:57:51much harder.
00:57:53What's your endgame?
00:57:54All in due time.
00:57:57You'll receive instructions shortly.
00:58:00Make the wrong move...
00:58:02and consequences will follow.
00:58:12Alessandro, my friend.
00:58:14I hope you've been reconsidering our previous conversation.
00:58:18Who are you?
00:58:19What do you want from me?
00:58:21Names are unimportant...
00:58:23my dear Alessandro.
00:58:25What matters is your compliance.
00:58:29I trust you.
00:58:31I trust you.
00:58:33I trust you.
00:58:35I trust you.
00:58:36I trust you.
00:58:37I trust you.
00:58:38I trust you.
00:58:39I trust you.
00:58:40I see you haven't grasped the severity of the situation.
00:58:46You don't have a choice, Alessandro.
00:58:50Your compliance is not optional.
00:58:53Cleopatra's fate...
00:58:55rests in your hands.
00:58:58What do you gain from all this?
00:59:00Curiosity killed the cat, my friend.
00:59:11Alessandro, we need to talk.
00:59:14So, you decided to talk to me again.
00:59:17Look, this isn't fun for me.
00:59:19I just can't keep avoiding it.
00:59:21Okay, no problem.
00:59:24Speed it out.
00:59:26The other day I told you something really important
00:59:29and you totally dismissed me.
00:59:32You're right.
00:59:33I'm sorry, Cleopatra.
00:59:35It's been complicated.
00:59:37I'm sorry, Cleopatra.
00:59:38It's been complicated.
00:59:40Complicated or not,
00:59:42you can't avoid that I confess my love for you
00:59:45and you have been avoiding me.
00:59:48I have not been avoiding it.
00:59:52I've just been...
00:59:54I'm sorry.
00:59:55This isn't about apologies, Alessandro.
00:59:58This is about being honest with each other.
01:00:05I'm pregnant
01:00:06and I don't know how to tell you
01:00:07and I don't know how you're going to react
01:00:09and where we can...
01:00:10Pregnant?
01:00:11Pregnant.
01:00:14My goodness.
01:00:16Really?
01:00:18Oh, Cleopatra.
01:00:19This isn't going to be just about you being there when I'm sick.
01:00:22It's about being there for the appointments
01:00:25and the important moments and...
01:00:27Hey, amore.
01:00:29I am so sorry
01:00:31I made you feel this way.
01:00:33And I am so sorry
01:00:35that it took me so long to tell you.
01:00:38But I love you too.
01:00:42Really?
01:00:43Yes.
01:00:47You can have a baby.
01:00:51And I promise
01:00:53moving forward
01:00:54I will always take care of you
01:00:57and our family
01:00:59forever.
01:01:03Good morning.
01:01:09Good morning, you two.
01:01:10Good morning.
01:01:12Why are you looking so serious?
01:01:16Well, mother, we do have something to tell you, actually.
01:01:19Oh?
01:01:20What did you tell?
01:01:23Can I have a baby?
01:01:25Oh, my gosh!
01:01:27I'm going to be a mom!
01:01:28Awesome!
01:01:30Oh, this is the best news!
01:01:32Believe it!
01:01:33Oh!
01:01:34I'm going to be a grandmother!
01:01:36Oh!
01:01:37Oh, there's so much to do.
01:01:39We have to plan the nursery
01:01:41and get adorable little clothes.
01:01:43Oh!
01:01:44And I could knit some blankets.
01:01:47It's such early stages.
01:01:49Slow down.
01:01:50There will be a time.
01:01:52Nonsense.
01:01:53It's never too early to plan for a new arrival.
01:01:55We could paint the walls a soft pastel colour.
01:01:58Oh, and I could get the most adorable little crib.
01:02:01And we could get those tiny little socks.
01:02:03Oh, dear!
01:02:05Oh!
01:02:07Now, let's not get too ahead of ourselves.
01:02:09It's too early.
01:02:10Oh, no.
01:02:11Nonsense is so exciting.
01:02:17Oh, Cleo, darling, you will not believe the dress we got in today.
01:02:22Isn't it just divine?
01:02:25Harlena, it's beautiful.
01:02:28I, uh, I actually have some good news of my own.
01:02:31Oh, spill the tea, darling.
01:02:36I'm pregnant.
01:02:38Cleo!
01:02:39Oh, that is the most wonderful news.
01:02:42You're going to be a mother.
01:02:44Congratulations.
01:02:46I am going to get us some tea to celebrate.
01:02:50No champagne for a while.
01:02:52Hello.
01:02:53We meet again.
01:02:54I guess I gotta introduce myself now.
01:02:56That was the deal.
01:02:58I'm Marco.
01:02:59Cleopatra.
01:03:00Cleo here is going to be a mother.
01:03:03Oh, wow, Cleo.
01:03:06That's wonderful news.
01:03:08I'll just get the tea.
01:03:10I didn't expect our next meeting to be so joyous.
01:03:15Life is full of surprises, isn't it?
01:03:18Indeed it is.
01:03:20Well, this calls for a celebration of some kind or something.
01:03:24Yeah, me and my husband were planning a little get-together when we know...
01:03:28Alessandro, right?
01:03:29Yeah.
01:03:30How did you...
01:03:31Here's the tea.
01:03:34There you go.
01:03:35To the to-be-mother.
01:03:38Um, what did you say your name was?
01:03:40I'm Marco.
01:03:41Adelina.
01:03:42Nice to meet you.
01:03:43Well, I was just popping in to say hello, but I'll see myself out.
01:03:46Sure, I'll see you around.
01:03:48Congratulations again.
01:03:49Thanks.
01:03:50Take care.
01:03:51Mother!
01:03:52Now, we have a party to plan.
01:03:53Okay, we do.
01:03:55So, I was thinking that this dress would be perfect for Maria's gala on the weekend.
01:04:03We're about to see our little one.
01:04:05Isn't that amazing, Cleo?
01:04:07Isn't that amazing?
01:04:09Yeah, it's amazing.
01:04:15Hey, what's troubling you?
01:04:17It's this car.
01:04:18It's been trailing us since we left home.
01:04:27It's still following us, Alessandro.
01:04:29What...
01:04:30What do we do?
01:04:32Okay, don't panic.
01:04:33I'll take a few quieter streets and see if they still follow.
01:04:47They're gone.
01:04:50See?
01:04:52I knew it was nothing.
01:04:54Let's focus on the positives today.
01:04:56Okay?
01:05:01Hello?
01:05:02Keep in mind, Alessandro.
01:05:05My gaze follows you everywhere.
01:05:08The world can turn on a dime.
01:05:11The world can turn on a dime.
01:05:19Who was that?
01:05:22You're messing with the wrong person, Marco.
01:05:32I'm so glad everything's okay with our baby.
01:05:34Me too.
01:05:35Such wonderful news.
01:05:36It's a relief.
01:05:42But...
01:05:44Alessandro, now that we're having this baby...
01:05:48I need to know about everyone in your life.
01:05:52Well, Cleopatra, there are some things that we need to leave out.
01:05:55They are business-related, and it's better if you don't know.
01:05:58No!
01:06:00I know something's going on.
01:06:03If you're not going to tell me, I'll just find out on my own, then.
01:06:06No, Cleopatra, please.
01:06:08Please.
01:06:09This is complicated and potentially dangerous.
01:06:13You need to stay out of it.
01:06:15Please.
01:06:17I need to know what's going on.
01:06:19You need to trust me.
01:06:22Hey.
01:06:24I will always take care of you.
01:06:27And our family.
01:06:29Trust me.
01:06:32I trust you, Alessandro. I do, but...
01:06:36I don't like secrets.
01:06:38I know.
01:06:40I know, and you're right.
01:06:42I'm sorry, Cleopatra.
01:06:45But this is for the better.
01:06:49And I will always take care of us.
01:06:56Sorry.
01:06:57Yes, take him to the lock-up, cut his head off, hang him upside down, and cut off his arm.
01:07:08I'll find out who Marco is.
01:07:11For our family.
01:07:16Cleo!
01:07:17Marco.
01:07:18I'm glad you're here.
01:07:19It's good to see you. It's been a while.
01:07:21How are things?
01:07:23Good, yeah. I've been working with Adelina and it's been really busy at the shop lately.
01:07:28Hey, I never asked. What do you do for work?
01:07:32It's a bit complicated. I work in the family business, but let's not worry about that at all.
01:07:38I totally get it.
01:07:41You know, it's a really beautiful day. Why don't we take a picture?
01:07:45And remember this time that we met up?
01:07:48Why?
01:07:50Um, I mean, you're looking really nice today and, you know, we could just take a picture together.
01:08:01No, thanks.
01:08:02No?
01:08:03No.
01:08:05Okay, that's fine.
01:08:13You're acting a little strange. Is everything okay?
01:08:17Of course, Marco. I just, I just appreciate friendship.
01:08:21Okay. Wait, it's Tuesday, right?
01:08:25Yeah, it's Tuesday.
01:08:26Oh, God. I, look, I've got my niece's, I've just completely forgot about it.
01:08:31I've got my niece's birthday over in Jersey and I have to go.
01:08:34I, I missed out, you know, that she was the one that asked.
01:08:37So I have to leave. I'm sorry. I'll make it up to you. I know a great spot, but I have to leave.
01:08:47Okay.
01:08:54Cleopatra, what's wrong?
01:08:58Alessandro, is, is this the Marco you've been talking about?
01:09:02Yes. Yes, that's him.
01:09:05He, he seems so friendly. Why would he threaten us?
01:09:12It's a long story.
01:09:14Marco and I used to be on opposing sides in a dangerous world.
01:09:20And now, now he sees our relationship as a vulnerability, a way to hurt me.
01:09:26And you didn't think to mention this until now?
01:09:29Look, I, I, I was trying to protect you.
01:09:34I didn't want him to know and I didn't want you to live in fear.
01:09:38Well, the truth is out now. What do we do?
01:09:43We, we'll be okay. I will protect you. I'll make sure that he doesn't do anything to you or our baby.
01:09:51But we need to be very careful. Marco is unpredictable.
01:09:56And now that he knows about our baby, he might do something. He might try to hurt you.
01:10:03You can't let him harm our family.
01:10:07I won't. I'll do anything that I can to protect you and our child. I promise you.
01:10:14You can't let him name Alessandra.
01:10:16I won't.
01:10:24Ah, Cleopatra. Take a seat. It's, it's been a while.
01:10:30Um, yeah, it has. I'm glad we could catch up like this.
01:10:34Have you been?
01:10:36Um, yeah, I've been good.
01:10:40Their conversation skims across various topics, but Cleopatra's mind is sharp.
01:10:46Her gaze occasionally flickering into the cafe's entrance and back to Marco, aware of the potential danger he represents.
01:10:55As they near the end of their encounter, Marco's insistence creeps into his voice.
01:11:05Well, it's been really, really good catching up with you, Cleo. I've, I've really enjoyed it.
01:11:12Um, yeah, me, me too. I, um, I better get going now.
01:11:17Oh, why, just have a drink. Tony's the best, uh, makes the best margaritas in town. Just have something.
01:11:24Um, Alessandra just texted me and it's getting late. I should really...
01:11:27Um, I just, I really would like it if you stay. I mean, it's just, I've already bought this bottle of wine. It's a great vintage.
01:11:34And then, you know, we can go for a walk later or something like that, you know.
01:11:40He sent someone to pick me up and I better not keep them waiting.
01:11:49I see. He's, um, very attentive, isn't he?
01:11:55That he is. I'll see you around, Marco.
01:11:59Take care, Cleo. Until next time.
01:12:14Hello?
01:12:15Salvatore, my old friend. It's Marco.
01:12:20Marco? I don't know any Marco.
01:12:23I trust you've been well?
01:12:25Don't worry, Salvatore. What's important is that we share a common interest. Cleopatra.
01:12:33Who is this? And what do you want with her?
01:12:37Let's just say I have a reason. I know she's close to Alessandra, but I want her away from him for a short little while. It's in her best interest.
01:12:49And what do you want me to do?
01:12:51Call me when she's with you, alone, at your place.
01:12:56What, is that all?
01:12:58Yes, that's all.
01:13:00And what's in it for me, Marco?
01:13:02I'm still warm.
01:13:0520,000 euro. Can you come up with that sort of money?
01:13:09You get me the girl, I get you the money.
01:13:22We won't let Marco dictate our lives.
01:13:27I trust you, Salvatore.
01:13:31Good, I'm glad. Mama, we have a problem.
01:13:35What?
01:13:37Cleopatra almost got kidnapped tonight.
01:13:40What happened to her?
01:13:43She's okay. She's shaking, but physically unharmed.
01:13:49It was Marco.
01:13:51Yeah, of course it was Marco. That man has no boundaries.
01:13:55He's trying to use her to get to me.
01:13:58Of course.
01:14:05I think it's best if you get out of town for a bit, just in case he's plotting something against us.
01:14:13I'll tighten the security around the house, all right?
01:14:17Okay.
01:14:18It'll be all right.
01:14:20And Mama.
01:14:21Yeah?
01:14:22Let you know.
01:14:23Yeah.
01:14:29Salvatore, are we going to be okay?
01:14:34We are. I promise you.
01:14:38Okay.
01:14:45Yes.
01:14:49I understand.
01:14:51Okay.
01:14:53Carmine.
01:14:57Marco makes a move. I want to be the first one to know.
01:15:00Got it?
01:15:02Cleopatra, love, where are you?
01:15:05Cleopatra?
01:15:07I heard what happened.
01:15:09I thought you'd want someone to talk to.
01:15:12How did you know?
01:15:14I also wanted to apologize about the way that I've treated you.
01:15:18Come, let's go for a walk.
01:15:21That way it might do you good, and we can talk.
01:15:26Because I want us to be on good terms.
01:15:29Okay, Salvatore. A walk might actually be nice.
01:15:37Okay.
01:15:54Cleopatra!
01:15:56Cleopatra!
01:15:59What's this?
01:16:05Marco, ascolta.
01:16:07If you touch her, you're dead.
01:16:15Hello, Marco?
01:16:17Yeah, I've got Cleopatra.
01:16:19Bring the money.
01:16:21Deal's done.
01:16:23It's okay. You're going to be fine.
01:16:25Salvatore.
01:16:27Let her go. Now.
01:16:30Not so fast.
01:16:32Not so fast.
01:16:34Put the gun down.
01:16:35I need this money.
01:16:37Come down.
01:16:39Marco, promise me.
01:16:40Stay calm.
01:16:45I need this money.
01:16:47Come down.
01:16:49Marco, promise me.
01:16:52Are you sure you want to go down this way?
01:16:58Callogero.
01:17:05Alessandro!
01:17:07Quiet. It's okay.
01:17:10Get out of here.
01:17:22Where are you going?
01:17:25The hospital.
01:17:27No. No. Just take me home.
01:17:31I don't think I can deal with all those chemicals right now.
01:17:40Alessandro.
01:17:46Alessandro.
01:17:53For what, Cleopatra?
01:17:55For protecting me and my baby.
01:17:59Our baby, Amore.

01:20:47Lopata, will you marry me again?
01:20:54Yes, yes, a thousand times, yes.
01:20:58Oh, I couldn't resist getting something for you two on this special day.
01:21:03Thank you, Donna.
