00:00This is a nice office you have here, but remind me to give you a raise when I finally take over it.
00:12Father, what's the meaning of this? How could you do this to me?
00:15Yeah, it's true.
00:16What if I could secure a partnership with the Anderson Corporation?
00:20The Anderson Corporation? I've been trying to land that account for 10 years.
00:23Oh my god. This is for Mr. X himself. He's asking me to come meet him at his private residence to discuss the terms of the contract.
00:32You've been waiting for this. Might as well.
00:38I won't waste your time. I brought you here to make you an offer. One that could help you secure what you came for.
00:45This is a marriage contract.
00:48It's not plaguing me. I feel a waste of time and I don't have much of it to spare.
00:55You think I'd stand idly by when you take my fucking birthright?
00:59You can't do that!
01:00Oh, can't I?
01:01Just watch.
01:03You have to stay between you and me, okay? You need to meet my grandchildren.
01:06Yes, yes, of course. You can trust me.
01:08You know, there's a lot of space in the back.
01:12My sister can't know about this.
01:14If I wish for you to fulfill your marriage obligations, I would expect you to leave so with a smile on your face.
01:20Tell me it isn't true.
01:21Tell me this is just another medias that I'm designed to ruin this family's reputation.
01:26Don't come any closer!
01:28Relax.
01:30I've been so confused in my life.
01:33Your brother came to me with a proposal that I could not refuse.
01:38You fucking bitch!
01:39I've never lied about any-
01:42You betrayed me!
01:43You really think you can say whatever the fuck you want and get away with it?
01:46Yes!
01:47Is that a threat I detect, brother?
01:49Ah!
01:50Dennis!
02:09Father?
02:10What's the meaning of this? How could you do this to me?
02:15Well, good morning, Emmeline. I see you're in a great mood again.
02:21After everything I've done for you, the family, the company, this is how you reward me?
02:26Calm down and let me know what you're saying.
02:28Oh, so you're going to deny it?
02:30Denying what? I still have no idea what you're talking about.
02:32The rumors going around the company that you're stepping down in three months and you've already named Jonas your successor!
02:37So that's what this drama is about?
02:39Yes!
02:40Yeah, it's true.
02:41That's ridiculous! Jonas can't take care of himself, let alone a whole company.
02:45I mean, all he does is spend his money on partying and women and I'm the one who actually does the work.
02:50Yes, and that's why you're the Chief Operating Officer.
02:52Look, I need you with your skill set in that role so that you can support your brother so that he too can succeed.
02:59Well, what if I make you an author, one you can't refuse?
03:04I'm listening.
03:07Have a seat.
03:10Father, I am certain this is an offer you're going to appreciate.
03:14An offer I'm going to appreciate?
03:16You're getting married. Great, because we both know you're not getting any younger.
03:21What? No, I'm talking about a business proposal, not a marriage.
03:24Oh, okay, well what's your business proposal?
03:31Okay, so what if I could secure a partnership with the Anderson Corporation?
03:37The Anderson Corporation? I've been trying to land that account for ten years. It's impossible. It can't be done.
03:43I have my ways, Father. I just need you to trust me.
03:48If it was anybody else, I would say no. But you're my daughter and I trust you.
03:55But just to let you know, I am going to be publicly announcing my retirement in three months.
04:02So you have three months to change my mind.
04:06Um, thank you, but I was hoping just to have a little more time.
04:09Three months and not a day more.
04:30Fucking hell. I just don't get it. I have sent up a million proposals at this point and I still have no response.
04:37Mail for Mr. Valene Castro?
04:45Yes, thank you.
04:56Who is it?
04:57Um, yes, what do you want?
04:59Um, I've got mail from the Anderson Corporation. I think they've got a new response.
05:03What'd they say?
05:04Oh, I don't know what it's saying.
05:06Did them just stand there agreed to be.
05:16Oh my God. This is for Mr. X himself. He's asked me to come meet him at his private residence to discuss the terms of the contract.
05:24Oh my God. It's great news. I'll cancel the rest of your appointments for the afternoon.
05:29No. No, I don't think that'll be necessary.
05:32Why not?
05:33I'm not going.
05:35What do you mean you're going? This is the big break you've been waiting for.
05:46I know. I know, but...
05:48Doesn't something about this seem off to you?
05:51Off? What do you mean off?
05:53We've sent out a million proposals and now suddenly we get a response from Mr. X himself?
05:59I guess so, Ms. Castro, but what do you have to lose? Honestly, you've been waiting for this. Might as well.
06:11Hey, you! Gardner! I'm here to meet Mr. X. Am I in the right place?
06:32Do I know you from somewhere?
06:36Yes, I imagine you do. I'm...
06:39Unimportant. I'm here to meet Mr. X. Is this the place?
06:44He's waiting for you. Just through that door and down the hall.
07:02Di?
07:16It's okay.
07:20Mm.
07:23I don't know what kind of a sick game you're playing, but you should go back outside and
07:47keep raking up leaves.
07:48Your boss would be too happy with you wearing his clothes and sitting on his expensive couch.
07:56You still don't remember me, do you?
07:59Remember you?
08:01No way, you're Jeff?
08:13In the flesh.
08:15You look like you've seen a ghost.
08:17You haven't answered my question.
08:19What's going on here?
08:20Well, you arranged a meeting with Mr. X, so here we are.
08:25I imagine this is all a little much for you to take in.
08:31This doesn't make any sense.
08:34I just saw you outside pruning plants and now you're giving me a glass of whiskey.
08:41Is this a prank?
08:42Are there cameras?
08:43Cameras?
08:44I don't much care for intrusive technology.
08:48And I don't think it's a crime for a man to tend his own garden.
08:51I get a lot of satisfaction from doing it myself.
08:55It's therapeutic.
08:56So what you're trying to tell me is...
08:59I'm Mr. X. I'm the one you came here to see.
09:03Now shall we dispense with the charades and get down to business or would you care to be
09:07hysterical for a few more minutes?
09:09Bullshit.
09:10You're lying.
09:11Are you just admit it and stop playing games?
09:13You don't have to believe me.
09:15I'm not trying to convince you.
09:16The door's still open your welcome, believe.
09:22I've got to say, this looks really good.
09:30One of the best proposals I've read in a while, in fact.
09:34I guess all the media say about you is true.
09:37But the figures we're looking at here are running the billions of dollars.
09:40Are you sure you can manage such resources?
09:42But I have a detailed project plan and I'm...
09:47I've looked at your plan and I've had my team go through it as well.
09:52The simple truth is your company does not have the resources to manage such a large project.
09:57On paper at least.
09:59Your father has consecutively been turned down over 30 times in the past 10 years for this reason alone.
10:03What makes you think we'd accept your company's offer this time?
10:06You've been rejected so many times before.
10:08You've had all that information and you've still invited me here.
10:12So I got back to the question.
10:14All I'm going to do is match.
10:17You're always as intelligent as you are, beautiful.
10:22Don't recognize me.
10:24Alright.
10:25I won't waste your time.
10:27I brought you here to make you an offer.
10:29One that could help you secure where you came from.
10:32You mean the contract.
10:33Did you come for something else?
10:34No.
10:35I just want to make sure you're on the same page.
10:36So what's the offer?
10:37Take it.
10:38Open.
10:39What is this supposed to be?
10:41You're a smart woman and I'm sure you can leave with on the date.
10:42This isn't a marriage contract between you and me.
10:44Contractual terms.
10:45The next thing you're going to do is send me.
10:47If he's using a marriage contract, do you have any connections you're not going to
10:48reach out to me?
10:49Put on the date of the date.
10:50You're not looking for it.
10:51You mean the contract.
10:52Did you come for something else?
10:53No.
10:54I just want to make sure you're on the same page.
10:55So what's the offer?
10:56Take it.
10:57Open.
10:58What is this supposed to be?
11:00You're a smart woman, I'm sure you can leave this on the date.
11:01You're a smart woman, I'm sure you can leave this on the date.
11:02This is a marriage contract between you and me.
11:04This is a marriage contract between you and me.
11:10Contractual terms for the marriage outlined in detail.
11:13Contract set to expire in three months.
11:16What makes you think I would ever, in a million years, accept something as bizarre as this?
11:21You think I would willingly sell myself into servitude just for a contract?
11:26Let's not play games, Ellen.
11:28I feel a waste of time and I don't have much of it to spare.
11:31I'm guessing the same is true for you.
11:34I know the reason you're here, or dare I say the motive behind your actions.
11:39What motive could that possibly be?
11:41Oh, I don't know.
11:43The fact that your father is publicly resigning from his position as CEO in three months?
11:47Or that he's naming someone who is not you as his successor?
11:51So, you thought that securing a massive contract like the Anderson Corporation could change his mind
11:59and finally give you the recognition you feel you deserve?
12:02Let me know if I miss something.
12:04How could you possibly know all this, with down to such detail?
12:14This line of business information is key.
12:17And I always have my way of getting the information I want.
12:21But so you've been spying on me.
12:23Well, I should get a restraining order against you.
12:26I wouldn't call it spying when your family's business is always on the news.
12:30It's just simple deduction, putting two and two together.
12:33And how exactly do you plan to get a restraining order against a man who doesn't exist?
12:38Who are you talking about it?
12:41I know you.
12:42You're sitting right in front of me.
12:44What do you really know about me?
12:47Besides the fact that my name might be Jeff?
12:49Might be.
12:49The world knows me as Mr. X.
12:53You have a name and a face, but little else.
12:55I drove here, remember?
12:57I know where you live.
12:59I have a dozen homes across the state.
13:02None of which are in my name.
13:04But I think we're getting a little off topic here.
13:07You have a contract in front of you that can make all of your dreams come true.
13:11The question is, do you have the balls to take it?
13:16Of course, you can walk away, turn it down, and none of this will have happened.
13:23But remember, this is a one-time offer.
13:27So, decide.
13:31Can I at least take some time to go through it carefully and then make a decision?
13:39Smart woman.
13:41I'll give you three days to decide.
13:44After which, the contract will be withdrawn.
13:47And nobody is to know about our little arrangement.
13:50Is that clear?
13:52Yes.
14:00So, this is it.
14:03My life has no meaning.
14:05I'm worthless.
14:06I'm going to do it.
14:12I'm doing it.
14:15Do it.
14:17What are you waiting for?
14:19Are you crazy?
14:20You almost got me killed.
14:21Show yourself, you psycho!
14:30Mr. St. Peters.
14:33I did not expect to see you here.
14:36You were going to jump?
14:39No.
14:40I wasn't.
14:41So, don't.
14:45Let me help you.
14:46You're a good girl.
15:06I can offer you a job.
15:10What kind?
15:12I need a wife to secure my position in the family business.
15:15Okay.
15:19When do I start?
15:21Just like that?
15:24At this point, I've got to do anything to survive.
15:26So, you'll be my contract bride?
15:31For a boss of a big company?
15:34Hell yeah.
15:35Even after finding out that I'm a vampire.
15:40What?
15:49You almost got me there.
15:51What gave it away?
15:53The fangs.
15:54They're so fake.
15:56But what if I really was a vampire?
15:59Would that make you run away?
16:01Nah.
16:02I would stay.
16:04As long as you don't drink my blood and pay me for the job.
16:08So, do we have a deal?
16:11Sure.
16:13So, when do I start?
16:15Right now.
16:17Excuse me?
16:26Oh my god.
16:29Is this where you live?
16:32So, you'll be moving in tomorrow.
16:34So soon?
16:36Yeah, there's no time to waste.
16:38I just wanted to show you where I live, that's all.
16:40Not even a house door?
16:42No.
16:43Let's go.
16:44What do we have here?
16:45I didn't know you'd be home, too.
16:49Interesting.
16:53What are you doing?
16:55Interesting.
16:56Yes, Ken, what are you doing?
16:58Ken.
16:58I'm Rosie.
17:01Sam's fiancée.
17:03Fiancée?
17:07Very interesting.
17:08Nice to meet you, Rose.
17:15Same here.
17:17I'm sure she'll get quite comfortable here.
17:20I'm sure she will, too.
17:22And she'll be moving in soon.
17:24Oh, we're certain to get along quite well, then.
17:28Let's go wait until Father arrives.
17:32Father will be excited to see her.
17:34Don't you think, Sam?
17:36No, you don't have to worry about that.
17:37Me and Rosie will get along just fine.
17:41Bye, Rose.
17:52What's wrong?
17:55It smells like human.
17:58That's because there's one in this house.
18:02And it's still alive?
18:04What's it doing roaming around our house?
18:08You didn't kill it yet.
18:11No.
18:12Because it's Sam's fiancée.
18:20What's he done now?
18:22We have to do something about this, Ken.
18:27We can't let that stand.
18:30Of course.
18:32I don't know what he's thinking.
18:34But we have to get rid of her.
18:36Whatever you're thinking,
18:38I'm in.
18:39He has no idea what's coming for him.
18:45And that little brat.
18:52Sam.
18:54Where are you going?
18:56I have a lot to do.
18:58Why don't you make yourself comfortable?
18:59All right.
19:01But let's talk about your brother first.
19:05My brother?
19:06What about him?
19:08Are you going to ignore the fact that he was acting all weird?
19:11I mean, he's definitely up to something.
19:13I don't like it.
19:15I'm scared.
19:17Did I say something funny?
19:20You're getting worked up over nothing.
19:22My brother's always been like that.
19:26Don't worry about it.
19:29Why are you in a hurry?
19:33I have a lot to do.
19:34Can we talk about what you said earlier?
19:37What did I say?
19:39About me moving in.
19:41Ah, right.
19:42That.
19:43It wasn't part of the deal.
19:46Yeah, but it needs to happen to make all this look real.
19:50What?
19:50I will double the price.
19:54Done.
20:20What are you doing?
20:30Um, just making myself comfortable.
20:34Well, in that case, drink this.
20:41What's this?
20:42It's just juice.
20:43It's not.
20:46It's blood.
20:47Yes.
20:48It is.
20:50Do you want me to drink this?
20:51It's for a ritual.
20:53It's not to hurt you.
20:55I'm convinced.
20:57Come on.
20:58If you really think that I would try to hurt you,
21:02trust me,
21:03this
21:03is to help you.
21:05Come on.
21:06Close your eyes.
21:09It'll make it taste
21:10better.
21:17Enough.
21:24Good girl.
21:26Now, you're ready.
21:28For what?
21:28To meet my father.
21:34Father,
21:36this is my future wife.
21:39Her name is Rosie.
21:41Rosie...
21:43Rose Baker.
21:45But my friends call me Rosie.
21:46A pleasure,
21:49Rose Baker.
21:50You smell
21:56strange.
21:58Perfect.
22:02I like her.
22:05She stays.
22:10Can you tell me what's going on?
22:17My father likes you.
22:18He approves of our marriage.
22:21Why the hell did he have to sniff me?
22:23He likes your cologne.
22:25Bullshit.
22:26I demand an explanation.
22:27I've already told you.
22:29We are getting married.
22:31You don't have to know everything.
22:33You just have to play your part.
22:35Understand?
22:36Okay, so what's now?
22:39Well, like I told you,
22:41you move in
22:43and then you'll get rewarded.
22:46Okay, then
22:46I'll go get my stuff.
22:48No,
22:49there's no need for that.
22:51How?
22:52My men will go get it for me.
22:54How do they know where I live?
22:57Fortunately,
22:58we already know everything about you.
23:00So,
23:01just stay here
23:02and look pretty.
23:04If you're not allowed to leave,
23:06it's not safe for you outside anyway.
23:08Excuse me,
23:09but I still have a job to attend to in the office.
23:12About that.
23:14You're fired.
23:16But you'll be getting paid more.
23:19What an asshole!
23:25That bastard.
23:26How did he pull it off?
23:29How did Father not sense that she was human?
23:34Her scent reaped this house.
23:36Maybe he gave her vampires blood
23:38of a rival clan.
23:40You know how brutal he can be.
23:42But how did he make her take it?
23:45Maybe she's just as bad as he is.
23:48Nah.
23:49She's innocent.
23:51I can see it in her eyes.
23:54She has no idea
23:56what's going on.
23:58He's using her and manipulating her
24:00just like he does everyone else.
24:02How long do you think
24:03that he can take this on for?
24:04I don't know.
24:07But we cannot let his own plan mature.
24:11It's okay.
24:12You deserve
24:13the place
24:15where your father once took.
24:17You were the one
24:18who actually helped
24:19when he was gone.
24:22We'll help.
24:24And I'll help you out
24:25like I always do.
24:34Dear son,
24:36I write this letter to you
24:37with a heavy heart.
24:39Your mother has passed
24:40and she's taken part of me with her.
24:43It's a contract
24:44which must be completed.
24:46Soon I may be joining her.
24:49This raises the question
24:50of who will continue our legacy
24:52and take over the family business.
24:55I have heard all the troubles
24:56you have caused in the other clans.
24:58I must express my disappointment.
25:02This was not how you were raised.
25:05To show you a return for your sins,
25:08you are to return home.
25:10Start a family
25:10before I can ever consider you
25:14for this position.
25:16Take care.
25:17With love,
25:18your father.
25:20I just got myself in some damn shit.
25:32Mom.
25:33What are you doing?
25:36What do you mean?
25:39Why are you topless?
25:41Getting ready for bed.
25:44Excuse me.
25:45You're not sleeping here.
25:48Go on the couch.
25:49Come on, Rosie.
25:52We're supposed to be a couple.
25:54Gonna get married soon,
25:56even if it is just a contract.
25:58There's no need to be like this.
26:00I don't care about the contract.
26:03You're not sleeping here.
26:08Fine.
26:09As you wish,
26:12your highness.
26:14Yes.
26:44Could be dangerous.
27:04What's this?
27:06Breakfast in bed.
27:08I thought you'd appreciate it.
27:10You made this for me?
27:16No.
27:18The servants did.
27:20Oh.
27:24Listen.
27:28I'm not sure I want to keep going with this arrangement.
27:32I think that you should keep those thoughts to yourself, Rosie.
27:36It's not just about you anymore.
27:38We've long surpassed that level.
27:42You're in it now.
27:44And there's no going back.
27:46Check your bank account.
27:56That should make things clear.
27:58There's more to come.
28:00Just...
28:02Play your part.
28:04And I'll see you tonight.
28:06I'll see you tonight.
28:16Hi.
28:18I'm Rosie.
28:19I saw you the other day.
28:20I was wondering if we could talk.
28:22Of course, Rosie.
28:24What's on your mind?
28:26So...
28:28I'm kind of feeling out of place in this new world.
28:30And I was wondering if we could maybe be friends?
28:34Friends?
28:36Sure.
28:38We can be friends.
28:40But remember, Rosie.
28:42This family has certain expectations.
28:44And it would be a shame if you couldn't meet those expectations.
28:48Well...
28:50Enjoy your new home, Rosie.
28:54I'm sorry, Rosie.
29:24What's this?
29:34What is it?
29:45Vampires.
29:46That's way above my payroll.
30:16Rosie?
30:18What's wrong?
30:20You look like you've seen a ghost.
30:22No, nothing.
30:24I just saw a spider...
30:26in the library.
30:28A spider?
30:30Hmm.
30:32You're not afraid of a little spider, are you?
30:34No.
30:36It just startled me.
30:38Hmm.
30:40Well, if you ever need someone to chase the spider away...
30:44you know where to find me.
30:46You know where to find me.
