00:00:00Can you just get to the point?
00:00:14I'm missing an important meeting.
00:00:16I understand, but I can't commence the reading of your father's will without your brother
00:00:21here.
00:00:24What the actual fuck?
00:00:26It's noon and you're drunk already.
00:00:28Hello, Frankie, Jack-boy, let's get this started, shall we?
00:00:39Your father's last will and testament, read before his two sons as stipulated.
00:00:45In the event of my death, all wealth belonging to me, including cash, properties, shares,
00:00:50and stocks, will only be inherited by one of my sons.
00:00:55Under the condition that he marries a woman of humble background within six months.
00:01:00Bullshit!
00:01:01We won't know it.
00:01:03This is your father's updated will.
00:01:05He was of sound mind when it was revised.
00:01:08Revised?
00:01:09When?
00:01:10A few weeks before his death.
00:01:12I assure you, these are his true wishes.
00:01:14If you'll please get seated, son.
00:01:17Fuck off, you fucking son.
00:01:18Take your fucking seat, Jack.
00:01:20It seems there's more we need to hear.
00:01:24That woman has already been chosen by me, Evangeline Harris.
00:01:28She's the daughter of Anna Harris, the woman who nursed and cared for me when I was ill.
00:01:32By all accounts, she's a good, decent woman.
00:01:35I realize that this stipulation might seem unusual, but to my disappointment, you have
00:01:39both grown overly arrogant and dismissive of those you consider to be inferior to you
00:01:43in both social standing and in wealth.
00:01:45My hope is that it will teach you to sustain a healthy relationship regardless of class
00:01:49or status.
00:01:50I pray that everything gets resolved with fairness, love, and kindness.
00:01:59This makes no sense at all.
00:02:02Marrying a stranger?
00:02:04How do we even get in touch with this woman?
00:02:06Evangeline-
00:02:07Evangeline Harris, your father has included contact details for both her and her mother,
00:02:12so getting in touch with her won't be an issue.
00:02:14You seem a little bit composed, brother.
00:02:16Something you'd like to tell me?
00:02:19I beg your pardon?
00:02:20You seem a little calm the whole way.
00:02:22A little too well.
00:02:23It's almost like as if you already knew what was happening.
00:02:27Please tell me that's a joke.
00:02:29I'm concerned about how to get to the bottom of this, and you're concerned that I'm just
00:02:32not falling apart.
00:02:33You were here before me.
00:02:35God knows for how long.
00:02:38Yeah, because I understand punctuality.
00:02:42Unlike you, you chose to be late, as usual.
00:02:46Hasn't all forgotten that you're daddy's little favourite, eh?
00:02:49Who knows what else he'd give you little hints about the will, hmm?
00:02:53For fuck's sake, Jack.
00:02:55Don't start this shit now.
00:02:57We need to be working together, not taking stabs at each other.
00:03:00Okay, whatever you say, dearest brother.
00:03:04But we all know the truth, and that always will come out in the end.
00:03:09Come on, Jack.
00:03:10Don't be such a child.
00:03:13God would want us to work as a team, no matter what.
00:03:17Good thing he's not here anymore, huh?
00:03:43Hey, this is the hundredth voicemail I've left you.
00:04:04Call me when you get this one.
00:04:05Tony boy!
00:04:06How you been looking for me?
00:04:07Speak of the devil.
00:04:08Where the fuck have you been?
00:04:09I've been trying to contact you for days.
00:04:10I've been here, there, you know.
00:04:11No.
00:04:12I don't know.
00:04:13And can you stop playing with that?
00:04:14You always make a mess of things.
00:04:15And you're always trying to control things.
00:04:16Maybe you should understand how things really work.
00:04:17What are you talking about?
00:04:18Are you trying to tell me that I'm a jerk?
00:04:19I'm not a jerk!
00:04:20I'm not a jerk!
00:04:21I'm not a jerk!
00:04:22I'm not a jerk!
00:04:23I'm not a jerk!
00:04:24I'm not a jerk!
00:04:25I'm not a jerk!
00:04:26I'm not a jerk!
00:04:27I'm not a jerk!
00:04:28I'm not a jerk!
00:04:29I'm not a jerk!
00:04:30I'm not a jerk!
00:04:31I'm not a jerk!
00:04:32I'm not a jerk!
00:04:33I'm not a jerk!
00:04:34I'm not a jerk!
00:04:35I'm not a jerk!
00:04:36I'm not a jerk!
00:04:37I'm not a jerk!
00:04:38I'm not a jerk!
00:04:39I'm not a jerk!
00:04:40I'm not a jerk!
00:04:41I'm not a jerk!
00:04:42I'm not a jerk!
00:04:43I'm not a jerk!
00:04:44I'm not a jerk!
00:04:45I'm not a jerk!
00:04:46I'm not a jerk!
00:04:47I'm not a jerk!
00:04:48I'm not a jerk!
00:04:49I'm not a jerk!
00:04:50I'm not a jerk!
00:04:51I'm not a jerk!
00:04:52I'm not a jerk!
00:04:53I'm not a jerk!
00:04:54I'm not a jerk!
00:04:55I'm not a jerk!
00:04:56I'm not a jerk!
00:04:57Well, luckily we have you then.
00:04:58Hey.
00:04:59Actually, best be on it.
00:05:00I'm gonna be going.
00:05:01We can do this chat another time.
00:05:03Where the fuck are you off to now?
00:05:11You pulled a quick one on me, didn't you?
00:05:14To think that I was worried about you, only to find out you had been in contact with Evangeline Harris.
00:05:19Damn, bro.
00:05:20Did you run here?
00:05:22Hey, easy, tiger.
00:05:24What can I say?
00:05:26I'll work better alone.
00:05:27Besides, this situation is best man wins.
00:05:30I don't see the both of us getting married to her.
00:05:33Welcome.
00:05:36Jack, I see you're here early this time.
00:05:38It's gonna be a bit worth the time.
00:05:41Heads up to my brother, didn't ya?
00:05:43Actually, I was obligated to share this information with both of you at the same time.
00:05:47Thank you for informing me, Mr. Frank.
00:05:49God knows if it were up to Jack, I'd still be up at the office.
00:05:53It should be worth the time.
00:05:55Shut up, jackass.
00:06:02Miss Harris won't be coming to the meeting.
00:06:05And we all know what that means.
00:06:07Without her, nothing can move forward.
00:06:10Damn it.
00:06:26I'm coming.
00:06:38Coming.
00:06:45Mum?
00:06:46What are you doing here?
00:06:48I had no idea you were stopping by.
00:06:50Eva, you look a mess.
00:06:51How many times have I told you your appearance matters all the time?
00:07:01I'm doing housework, Mum.
00:07:02Am I supposed to have a full face of makeup on?
00:07:04Oh, well, I really don't know why you have to live in such a little shabby place.
00:07:09Surely you can find somewhere better.
00:07:11Your standards are so high.
00:07:13It's not like I can afford a mansion on the same salary.
00:07:16And besides, I like it here.
00:07:17It's nice and it's cozy.
00:07:19Well, that's why life presents you with opportunities.
00:07:23And you've got to grab them when they are presented to you.
00:07:26I guess.
00:07:27I believe you were invited to a meeting by the Blackthorne's lawyers.
00:07:33Yeah. How did you know about that?
00:07:35Oh, never mind. Why didn't you go?
00:07:37Because it seemed shady.
00:07:39I don't know. I've never spoken to that man before.
00:07:42And I only know the name Blackthorne because you worked for the late Mr Blackthorne.
00:07:47What on earth do they want with me?
00:07:49And you just dodged my question.
00:07:51How do you know about that meeting?
00:07:52Because I set it up.
00:08:00What do you mean you set it up?
00:08:02What business do you still have with our family after your patient died?
00:08:05What's going on, Mum?
00:08:06Calm down, child. Let me explain.
00:08:09You see, when Mr Blackthorne neared his end,
00:08:13he kind of started opening up to me and talking about his life,
00:08:17about his late wife, his two sons Jack and John, fraternal twins.
00:08:23And you see, he even asked about my life.
00:08:26That's interesting, but that doesn't quite answer anything.
00:08:28But you see, when we got talking, we realised that we could possibly help each other.
00:08:33You see, he realised that his two sons had a bit of a, let's call it a classist issue.
00:08:39You mean they're pretentious rich boy freaks?
00:08:41That's not surprising, but what does that have to do with anything?
00:08:44Well, you see, he hoped for them to have a little bit more empathy
00:08:48and be a little bit less pretentious.
00:08:50And I said, my daughter actually has the opposite challenge.
00:08:53She's poor and humble and needed to step up socially.
00:08:57What? You told him that? About me?
00:09:01Parents talk about their kids.
00:09:02You see, I told him that you were fussy about, you know, the men you were dating,
00:09:06lacking in a bit of ambition.
00:09:08And, you know, Mr Blackthorn was really alone at that time
00:09:11and his two boys were always just too busy to visit him.
00:09:14He might have been a little muddled at that point,
00:09:17but anyway, we still came to an agreement.
00:09:20What sort of agreement, Mum?
00:09:21Well, he added in his will that one of his sons needed to marry you
00:09:27in order to inherit his wealth.
00:09:29You can't be serious.
00:09:31You're joking, right?
00:09:33No, wait. Let me finish. I am serious.
00:09:38You mean you agreed to sell me like a cheap pimp?
00:09:54You told that old man that I was a sad loser?
00:09:57That I would jump at the chance to marry one of his sons?
00:10:01So what if I don't have a man in my life with many friends?
00:10:04That's my choice! Mine!
00:10:07Now, I don't give a damn what you think.
00:10:09You look me in the eye and you tell me that you are fulfilled
00:10:12with everything that you have and everything you don't have
00:10:16and that you never had a thought that your life would be much easier
00:10:20if you had more.
00:10:22If you had more money, more status and more opportunities.
00:10:26Yeah, I thought as much.
00:10:29I only ever wanted what was good for you.
00:10:34All the things that I never had in my life growing up.
00:10:38The things I never achieved.
00:10:40So it really hurts me when you imply that I want to pimp you out.
00:10:48Yeah.
00:10:50What do the sons think about this crazy scheme?
00:10:53Well, you would have known that if you actually went to the meeting
00:10:56that you refused to go to.
00:10:59I'm sorry.
00:11:01But it's to marry a total stranger?
00:11:03A very wealthy stranger, really.
00:11:06Let's see it as something like speed matchmaking.
00:11:10It happens everywhere.
00:11:12They do it on TV reality shows, social media, dating apps.
00:11:16No one's forcing you to do anything that you don't want to do.
00:11:19But let's face it, you won't lose anything by trying at least.
00:11:23What happens if I don't like the guy and I don't want to go through with the marriage?
00:11:26Well, then the Blackthorn sons will just have to sort it out themselves
00:11:29and work through it.
00:11:31At that point, at least they've learned just a fraction of the humility
00:11:34that their dad wanted for them.
00:11:39Well, maybe I'll meet with the sons and see what it's like.
00:11:42But I can't guarantee anything further than that.
00:11:50Well, my suit gets unsaved, good girl.
00:11:57John Blackthorn?
00:11:59Yes.
00:12:01You must be Ms. Harris.
00:12:03Evangeline is fine. Or Eva, if you'd like.
00:12:06Eva it is, then. I'm John.
00:12:12I hope it's not too forward of me to say this, but
00:12:15you look exceptionally beautiful.
00:12:20You literally just look like a princess.
00:12:25You literally just took my breath away right now.
00:12:28You're magnificent.
00:12:30I'm sorry about ghosting the meeting, your lawyers.
00:12:34It just came from out of the blue.
00:12:36I had no idea why my mother's late employer's lawyer would want to meet with me so urgently.
00:12:41It just happened so fast and I didn't really have much time to think about it.
00:12:45I just said yes.
00:12:47So you're aware of the part of my father's will that relates to you?
00:12:53I had no idea. It's quite strange.
00:12:57It's been a bit overwhelming.
00:13:00Even for me.
00:13:02For us.
00:13:05Isn't there supposed to be two of you?
00:13:07Your attorney said I'm supposed to meet your brother as well.
00:13:11You must be the all-important Ms. Harris.
00:13:15Speak of the devil.
00:13:18Tell me something.
00:13:20How much are you really going to cost me?
00:13:23You must be Jack Blackthorn.
00:13:26Yes, you guys are playing good cop, bad cop.
00:13:29So he came earlier to butter me up with outrageous compliments
00:13:33and then you swoop in for the attack.
00:13:35What are you insinuating that I'm for sale?
00:13:38Am I interrupting something?
00:13:40Oh, don't tell me you've fallen for his boyhood routine.
00:13:44Clearly this is an exchange.
00:13:46You for our father's wealth.
00:13:48Don't play dumb.
00:13:50What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:13:52Don't talk to her like that. It's disgusting.
00:13:54Oh, come on. You're coming on so strong, Johnny boy.
00:13:58Don't act all innocent now that she's looking so beautiful.
00:14:02Is that what you think a woman is?
00:14:04That we're only valuable for the way we look?
00:14:08No wonder your father loved you out of his wealth.
00:14:11No wonder your father loved you out of his wealth.
00:14:13You're not only classist, but you're sexist as well.
00:14:16Watch your fucking mouth. You don't know anything about Apple.
00:14:19Or me.
00:14:20You think you're better than us, don't you?
00:14:22The fact that you're even here considering this proposal says a lot about you.
00:14:26You fucking bitch, how much does this cost?
00:14:28Use it to mop up your toxicity, rich boy.
00:14:31You should both go to hell if you're upper.
00:14:42Evangelion, wait!
00:14:44Hold on a second.
00:14:48Nice one, Jack. Nice one.
00:14:51She's the spitfire, that one.
00:14:53What about those curves?
00:14:55You never know, she'll be so hot.
00:14:57What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:14:59You made her change her mind.
00:15:01How hard is it to be polite, goddammit?
00:15:03Not my fault Miss Fiker can't take a joke.
00:15:05Besides, she'll be back eventually.
00:15:08Are you sure about that?
00:15:10I don't think you saw how angry she was.
00:15:14Don't worry, Johnny boy.
00:15:15I know women and I saw the fire in her today and she's burning for me.
00:15:20I think you're confusing her emotions.
00:15:22Nah.
00:15:23One way or another, I'll be holding that spark in my hands.
00:15:27Don't tell me now you're interested in her.
00:15:30You were talking down to her that entire time.
00:15:33You call it talking down, I'll call it flirting.
00:15:35And besides, we could see your smiles in less than 20 minutes.
00:15:40I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:15:43There's no denying it.
00:15:45We could clearly see your heart thumping out of her shirt
00:15:48and I'm pretty sure I could make her heart thump a little bit more.
00:15:52Are you sure about that?
00:16:00I guess we'll find out.
00:16:05I'm sorry.
00:16:26Oh, my jam.
00:16:29I can hear your phone ringing, Evangeline.
00:16:32Open the door.
00:16:35I'm coming.
00:16:41Ignoring your mother.
00:16:42That's such childish behaviour.
00:16:46Come on, Mum. I didn't know it was you.
00:16:48Carves, really.
00:16:50You need to watch your figure.
00:16:51But anyway, we'll talk about that later.
00:16:53I'm here for a different reason.
00:16:55What reason?
00:16:57Or must I spell it out for you?
00:16:59I'm here to speak to you about your meeting with the Blackthorns.
00:17:02I told you what happened.
00:17:04Please don't tell me you came all this way just to talk about it again.
00:17:07Did I teach you nothing about perseverance?
00:17:10Here you have a chance to change your life
00:17:13and even find love along the way
00:17:15and you want to throw it away
00:17:17just because of one small little comment?
00:17:19A serious insult, you mean?
00:17:21Eva, I'm not asking you to reach out or even apologise to them.
00:17:25I'm asking you just to give them another try.
00:17:28I made a promise to Mr Blackthorn and I want to keep that.
00:17:31You speak like it's an obligation
00:17:33but I know you didn't sign anything, no?
00:17:40Don't!
00:17:46John or Jack?
00:18:04You've got to be kidding me.
00:18:06John Blackthorn!
00:18:08What are you doing here?
00:18:10Are you stalking me?
00:18:12How did you know I work at this hotel?
00:18:14I'm sorry, I didn't mean to startle you.
00:18:17Well, that's exactly what you've done.
00:18:19You should never sneak up on a woman like that.
00:18:22My bad.
00:18:24I'm sorry, I didn't mean to startle you.
00:18:26Well, that's exactly what you've done.
00:18:28You should never sneak up on a woman like that.
00:18:30My bad.
00:18:32My bad.
00:18:34I just wanted to talk to you and tell you how sorry I am about the other day.
00:18:38Oh yeah?
00:18:40Sorry about what?
00:18:42For being a two-faced Mr Nice Guy?
00:18:45Or for being dumb when your brother insulted me?
00:18:48Eva, I'm-
00:18:49That's Evangeline to you.
00:18:51Right.
00:18:52Evangeline.
00:18:54I swear to you, I was never putting on an act at any time.
00:18:59I meant every word I said about how beautiful you are.
00:19:03I'm sorry I didn't defend you sooner.
00:19:06My brother can be...
00:19:08difficult sometimes.
00:19:11I hope you can give me a chance to make it up to you.
00:19:15Well, that sounded better this time around.
00:19:18If you know that I was-
00:19:19Look out!
00:19:22That was close.
00:19:24I really thought he was about to knock me over.
00:19:26If he hadn't grabbed me, I'd be lying on the road by now.
00:19:28Are you sure you're okay? You're not hurt anywhere?
00:19:31It's fine. He just missed me.
00:19:33You saved me. You're my hero.
00:19:36No, no. It's nothing like that.
00:19:39I just happened to be looking at the road at the right time.
00:19:43You know, I've been trying to get in contact with you for the past few days.
00:19:48You're the one who's been blowing up my phone.
00:19:51How did you get my number?
00:19:54Well, when you weren't answering and I needed to get a hold of you,
00:19:58I called Mr. Frank, who then called-
00:20:01My mother. She loves to meddle.
00:20:04Can I give you a ride home?
00:20:06Yeah, I'd really appreciate that.
00:20:18I'm sorry.
00:20:36Again, I'm sorry about what happened
00:20:39and how something that started so nicely ended up so messy.
00:20:44And I'm sorry that you almost got hit because of me.
00:20:47It's okay. I'm over it now.
00:20:50And that guy wasn't looking where he was going.
00:20:53Yeah, but I could have made sure you weren't.
00:20:57Sorry.
00:21:00No, it's okay.
00:21:07Um, this is me, so...
00:21:11Would you like to come in for a drink?
00:21:13Yeah, that'd be great.
00:21:18Um, this buckle's kind of stuck.
00:21:23Here, you just need to press it in like this.
00:21:34Dammit, it's work. I need to take this.
00:21:38Um, thanks for the ride.
00:21:40You're welcome.
00:21:46I will never forget how scared you were
00:21:49when you thought a dead frog would come back to life and haunt you.
00:21:53I swear it looked me straight in the eye before it took its last breath,
00:21:56probably memorising my face so it could have its afterlife vengeance attack.
00:22:00Wasn't it for the school project?
00:22:02You were so scared that you were shivering all night,
00:22:05the lights aren't even up till midnight.
00:22:07It's funny now, but back then it was a very different matter, I can assure you.
00:22:13You know what? Your mum was insidious about the whole thing.
00:22:17No, she wasn't. She believed me.
00:22:20Oh, well, come on, at least she just made you not feel terrible.
00:22:24That's probably true.
00:22:26But in my ten-year-old brain, mum believed in the ghosts of vindictive frogs.
00:22:32Yeah, she was something else.
00:22:36I really do miss her.
00:22:38Yeah, me too.
00:22:41And dad too, of course.
00:22:46I always look at this photo of the four of us, together.
00:22:53We used to have dinner as a weekly tradition.
00:22:56Why don't we do that anymore?
00:22:58I don't know, just...
00:23:01I think things got sad after mum died, and we became busy, dad died, and...
00:23:07I think we just lost the feeling of what it's like to be a family again.
00:23:12Well, why don't we change that?
00:23:19I've lost my appetite. I'll leave you to it, Johnny boy.
00:23:31Ah, Johnny boy, welcome. Take a seat.
00:23:35Look, I got the chef to make your favourite meal.
00:23:38Wow, it all looks so good.
00:23:42And you're in a very good mood tonight.
00:23:45Yeah, thought after the way you stormed out last night, I'd have to be worried about you.
00:23:49Don't worry about that, I've got that under control as usual.
00:23:52Well, maybe I should get back to work.
00:23:55Don't worry about that, I've got that under control as usual.
00:23:58Well, maybe I should get back to work.
00:24:00Well, cheers to the night.
00:24:02Cheers.
00:24:05Hope you've worked up a big appetite.
00:24:07This is going to become a three-course meal.
00:24:09I'm as hungry as I've ever been.
00:24:11It all looks delicious.
00:24:14So, I noticed Miss Harris called you yesterday.
00:24:19I didn't realise you guys were becoming so close. So surprised.
00:24:24It's nothing serious.
00:24:26I reached out to apologise to her and we've been friendly ever since.
00:24:30So you're making progress, right?
00:24:33Sneaking slowly into her heart.
00:24:36One phone call at a time.
00:24:38What's next?
00:24:40Sex on the beach?
00:24:44Jack, please.
00:24:46Don't start that now.
00:24:48Don't ruin a good dinner.
00:24:50Nah, not at all.
00:24:53Oh. Hmm.
00:24:56What is it?
00:24:59Guess who's going to have Eva work under him?
00:25:02Hello.
00:25:22Hello. You asked to see me?
00:25:25Yes, I did. Have a seat.
00:25:28I don't understand. What are you doing here?
00:25:31Well, I bought the hotel off the old owners. It's simple as that.
00:25:34Are you shocked to see me since the first time we met?
00:25:37Have you spoken about me, at least?
00:25:39Well, I know you and my brother have been speaking.
00:25:41What, do you think I'm just going to vanish into thin air?
00:25:45No, I didn't ask about you.
00:25:47You were an utter prick that day.
00:25:50Watch your tone, young lady.
00:25:52You don't want to be getting fired speaking to the boss now, would you?
00:25:56Of course not.
00:25:58You don't have to worry. It's not like I'm going to ask you to blow me or anything.
00:26:01Well, not yet.
00:26:03I think HR would hate to hear about that.
00:26:06I don't give a shit about HR.
00:26:08I own HR, which means I own you.
00:26:11Well, that'll be all, Miss Harris.
00:26:13You can get back to work.
00:26:15But my brother doesn't need to know about this.
00:26:29I'm sorry.
00:26:31I'm sorry.
00:26:33I'm sorry.
00:26:35I'm sorry.
00:26:37I'm sorry.
00:26:39I'm sorry.
00:26:41I'm sorry.
00:26:43Just the man I was looking for.
00:26:45What is it this time?
00:26:47Take a look at this.
00:26:49Blackthorn Corporation isn't doing as badly as we feared.
00:26:52It's not as good as when Dad was here, but still alive and kicking.
00:26:58I've got some news, but I'm not sure if you're going to like it.
00:27:01I think it can wait.
00:27:03Can we take a look at this first?
00:27:05You can tell me after.
00:27:07No, I can't wait.
00:27:09Okay.
00:27:11You have my attention.
00:27:13What is it?
00:27:14I'm afraid I have to relinquish some of my responsibilities at Blackthorn Corp.
00:27:18What?
00:27:19Why?
00:27:20I bought a hotel.
00:27:21You bought a hotel?
00:27:22The Bellevue Hotel. I've just signed the papers.
00:27:25Why the fuck would you do that?
00:27:27You're barely even here.
00:27:29Now you've gone and bought a hotel?
00:27:31It's money from my own fund.
00:27:33You don't have to worry.
00:27:34I just thought I'd let you know because I won't be around much longer.
00:27:37Once the thing's settled down.
00:27:40It's the hotel management.
00:27:42I best be off.
00:27:51This was quite a surprise.
00:27:53I mean, it's a good surprise.
00:27:55Please come in.
00:28:01So, this is your place?
00:28:05Yeah.
00:28:07Welcome to how the other half lives.
00:28:10I didn't mean...
00:28:13Isn't this what your father wanted for you?
00:28:15To mingle with the lower class?
00:28:18I'm just guessing with you.
00:28:21Okay.
00:28:23These are for you.
00:28:27Who said those?
00:28:29My favourite thing.
00:28:31How did you know?
00:28:33I made a good guess.
00:28:45Somehow, I don't believe it was a random guess.
00:28:50Come on, tell me the truth.
00:28:52Okay, fine.
00:28:55You told me you really liked chrysanthemums since you were little.
00:28:58And your grandpa used to grow them in his garden.
00:29:02Yeah, I do like them.
00:29:04They're beautiful and unique.
00:29:10I'm glad you love them.
00:29:12I almost got you wild orchids.
00:29:14I mean, I do like those too.
00:29:18I would have cooked dinner.
00:29:21But I do have chocolate chip ice cream.
00:29:26My favourite flavour.
00:29:28What's yours?
00:29:29Boring old vanilla, I'm afraid.
00:29:32Vanilla isn't always boring.
00:29:36It's...
00:29:39It's nice and...
00:29:43Plain.
00:29:45I'm sorry.
00:29:46I was trying to think of another adjective.
00:29:51It's still nice.
00:29:58You're staring.
00:29:59Do I have something on my face?
00:30:02No.
00:30:03You're perfect.
00:30:06You're so beautiful, Evangeline.
00:30:12You're quite handsome yourself.
00:30:15May I kiss you?
00:30:21No.
00:30:22Sorry, I don't know what came over me.
00:30:25It's alright, we're just caught up in the moment.
00:30:28Right.
00:30:29That's all.
00:30:31Did you know Jack was going to buy the hotel where I work?
00:30:34Is this some kind of weird game you guys are playing of inheritance?
00:30:38No.
00:30:39I had no idea.
00:30:41I'm sorry.
00:30:42I'm sorry.
00:30:43I'm sorry.
00:30:44I'm sorry.
00:30:45I'm sorry.
00:30:46I'm sorry.
00:30:47I'm sorry.
00:30:48I'm sorry.
00:30:49I had no idea he was going to do that.
00:30:52My brother talks cryptically and he can be hard to decode sometimes.
00:30:56He didn't mention anything until a few minutes before you called.
00:30:59How come he can afford to buy a whole freaking hotel?
00:31:02Aren't you guys supposed to be hanging on to your father's properties?
00:31:06Yes, we are.
00:31:08But his purchase didn't exactly make a dent in our savings.
00:31:13We both have healthy trust funds.
00:31:16Jack just took some money out of his to buy the hotel.
00:31:19Isn't it just fantastic rich boys can do that?
00:31:23So what do I do?
00:31:25I like my job and I need it.
00:31:27But Jack told me to watch my back.
00:31:29I wasn't supposed to tell you that.
00:31:32I think he was just saying that to freak you out.
00:31:35He wouldn't have told me about the hotel if he didn't want me to know.
00:31:38I can't believe my new boss is trying to marry me so he can get a couple million dollars.
00:31:44More than a couple billion actually.
00:31:48Wow, I feel even more special.
00:31:53I should be going.
00:31:55Let me know if anything.
00:32:03I know you'll probably want to leave but would you like some pizza?
00:32:06It's good.
00:32:08I don't want to intrude.
00:32:10I'm inviting you to join me.
00:32:12Just two friends eating pizza and chatting about life.
00:32:15Is that what we are? Friends?
00:32:18I think so. We're close enough at least.
00:32:21Even though I kissed you?
00:32:23Yes, even though you kissed me.
00:32:25Fine.
00:32:37This is so cozy.
00:32:40I can't remember the last time I've just hung out like this.
00:32:43You're welcome.
00:32:53I swear to God.
00:32:59What? What was that? I noticed the look on your face.
00:33:02It's nothing serious.
00:33:04Just work.
00:33:06I don't have to deal with it right now.
00:33:10I'll be alright then.
00:33:13I just...
00:33:18Still thinking about the fact that, you know, Jack is now my boss.
00:33:27Will you bring it up with him?
00:33:30No.
00:33:32Not yet at least.
00:33:34I think it's best if he thinks he has the upper hand for now.
00:33:40What happens next?
00:33:43I don't know Eva.
00:33:45But I promise you he'll do nothing stupid.
00:33:48You have my word.
00:34:02Hello my beautiful Eva. Work is hectic this morning and I'm meeting until later.
00:34:06I made the hardest dinner sound tonight, yours Charlie.
00:34:10I can't wait thinking about it already. Have a great day.
00:34:15Eva?
00:34:17Are you on your phone right now? This is not your personal space.
00:34:21Must I remind you that you're at work and you must be focusing on that.
00:34:25My apologies sir, I was just checking my calendar.
00:34:28Ah, your calendar. How timely.
00:34:31I promise I'm up to date on my morning tasks and I'm just currently grading the candidates for the sous-chef role.
00:34:37I promise I haven't been slacking off.
00:34:40Well I'll be the judge of that because I'll be supervising all interviews from now.
00:34:44Alright, of course.
00:34:46Of course.
00:34:48Of course Mr Blackburn sir.
00:34:50In my office now Ms Harris, there's something I need to show you and it's urgent.
00:35:02Please shut the door behind you.
00:35:13Is there something wrong?
00:35:15As a matter of fact there is.
00:35:20What's this?
00:35:21Go ahead and open it. It's a little present from me to you.
00:35:24I'm sure you'll find the contents quite interesting.
00:35:31What's this? When was this taken?
00:35:34These are pictures of my brother with his little fling at a fancy restaurant.
00:35:38This isn't real. This is AI docket or something.
00:35:42I knew you'd say something like that so I have even stronger proof.
00:35:45Yes see, my friends of the restaurant, I am quite close with the son and he could easily get the live feed and now I owe him.
00:35:53One way or another, this is fake and I believe you.
00:35:58Oh, you have magically fallen in love with him haven't you?
00:36:01Don't tell me you're fucking him.
00:36:05Oh wow, I didn't see this one coming.
00:36:08Wow, Johnny boy is working so quickly. Good on him.
00:36:12Since you have, you know, benefitted out for him, why don't you give him a call and ask for the camera footage yourself?
00:36:28There's only one way to find out now isn't it? Call him.
00:36:50Hello, it's me.
00:36:54How's it going?
00:36:59You're in a meeting right now, is that correct?
00:37:09Oh Eva, don't be so sad.
00:37:13These women don't last long and I'm sure he's going to call and say it's just a business meeting.
00:37:18But anyone with eyes and ears and a head will know that's nothing like that.
00:37:26Why are you doing this?
00:37:27Oh, I want to make sure that you know what kind of man my brother really is.
00:37:31Then let me guess, you're the upstanding brother who's doing his betterment for the world, is that what this is?
00:37:41You can't pretend, even for a second, you haven't done this for your own nefarious purposes.
00:37:46No matter how selfless you want to appear, you're no better than your brother.
00:37:50In fact, I see more similarities than differences in you two now.
00:37:56Watch your tone young lady. Have you forgotten I'm still your boss?
00:38:01You don't want to get fired now for losing your temper for some man, do you?
00:38:11That's okay, you go back to the office now. Don't worry about the interviews, I'll take care of that.
00:38:16No, let me handle the interviews. I don't need a day off.
00:38:20Okay, fine, but make sure you're efficient.
00:38:22I don't want to hear any reports of my junior manager bursting into tears while screening new stuff.
00:38:28That would be highly embarrassing.
00:38:31I'll make sure everything goes well.
00:38:40Hey you, how was your meeting?
00:38:45You know, the one that took hours and hours of your time?
00:38:49It must have been really important.
00:38:53No, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it to dinner tonight.
00:38:56I'm not feeling too good, so we'll have to make a rain check until further notice.
00:39:03You have one quick delivery.
00:39:05Oh, it's you.
00:39:07There you are. I've been knocking for ages. Your TV was so loud. I brought you ice cream.
00:39:14That's not necessary. I'm doing okay.
00:39:17Are you sure you're okay? You don't look so bad.
00:39:22I'm fine.
00:39:24I'm fine.
00:39:25Ice cream?
00:39:26That's not necessary. I'm doing okay.
00:39:29Are you sure you're okay? You don't look so bad. Have you been to the doctor?
00:39:35Is everything okay with you, John?
00:39:37You sound pissed off with me. What's wrong?
00:39:41You're acting strange and you haven't even let me come in.
00:39:45I don't think this is a conversation we should be having in the hallway.
00:39:48Strange? Or am I just not all over you like the other night?
00:39:52I guess you want a repeat. Too bad. It's not going to happen.
00:39:57What the fuck is that supposed to mean?
00:39:59Are you going to keep spitting cryptic phrases like that?
00:40:02Or are you going to let me come in so we can have a civilized conversation?
00:40:05The ice cream's melting.
00:40:07I don't give a shit about the melting ice cream.
00:40:10My foot ruins your expensive shoes.
00:40:12The last time we spoke, you were cheerful. Now you're acting like a dog pissed in your cereal.
00:40:17If I said or did something wrong, just let me know, okay?
00:40:21Fuck off. That's what I want to tell you.
00:40:28Where is this coming from?
00:40:30You didn't give me a single clue that anything was wrong and now you're blowing up in my face.
00:40:35You know I ordered Chinese food, but ice cream will do.
00:40:39Are you even listening to me? You're acting like I'm not even talking to you.
00:40:43You came to check up on me, and you've done that.
00:40:46You brought me my ice cream. We can go on your married way.
00:40:51Don't you dare touch me.
00:40:53What the hell, Evangeline?
00:40:55You're being childish and lashing out for no good reason.
00:40:58If you didn't want to see me, you could have given me a single phone call.
00:41:02You didn't have to fake illness just to get out of seeing me.
00:41:05Yeah, whatever.
00:41:07You can see yourself out.
00:41:09Have a nice night, John.
00:41:11Eva, wait!
00:41:13But of course I'll pay you back.
00:41:15I'm disgusted you would say such a thing.
00:41:17Well, you know how things go. One good turn turns to another.
00:41:21Anyway, I've got to go. I'll call you back later. Bye.
00:41:31Hey, brother.
00:41:33What are you doing here?
00:41:35Is it a crime to come to my house?
00:41:37Hey, brother.
00:41:39What are you doing here?
00:41:41Is it a crime to come check up on family?
00:41:43What are you really doing here, John?
00:41:45I doubt family concerns brought you here.
00:41:48Why did you come to see Eva?
00:41:50I know you know she works here, and she does look gorgeous in that tight body.
00:41:54You keep her name out of your mouth.
00:41:56So I am right.
00:41:58You did come all this way just to see your little girlfriend.
00:42:01Don't tell me you've had a little rocky patch now, have you?
00:42:05How do you know about that?
00:42:07Maybe she told me.
00:42:09Why do I get the feeling that you had something to do with it?
00:42:12Well, why don't you ask her yourself? I'm sure she'll be in here any second.
00:42:16Funnily enough, why don't you count down with me in five, four, three...
00:42:21These are the reports you asked for?
00:42:29These are the reports you asked for?
00:42:31Ah, please come in. Right on time.
00:42:34I just finished speaking with IT.
00:42:36They've made the changes you've requested already,
00:42:38and I was able to export the new data into the system.
00:42:41Perfect.
00:42:42Look, why don't you come a little bit closer?
00:42:44You seem a bit uncomfortable over there.
00:42:51You're really going to act like you can't see me right now?
00:42:54Eva, that'll be all now.
00:42:56We do need a cross-check to make sure the figures are right,
00:42:59and make sure it's all foolproof, alright?
00:43:01I'll get on to that right now, and I'll check the new schedules.
00:43:09Please move out of my way.
00:43:11You're acting like I'm radioactive.
00:43:13John, can you please step aside and let her get to work, thank you.
00:43:16You stay out of this, Jack. It's none of your business.
00:43:19This is between me and her.
00:43:21There is nothing between you and I.
00:43:23In fact, I doubt there ever was.
00:43:26You fucking asshole!
00:43:28What bullshit did you tell her now?
00:43:30Watch your tone, young man.
00:43:32You're not the boss around here.
00:43:34If you don't watch yourself, Johnny boy,
00:43:36I might as well get security to escort your little bum-bum out of here now.
00:43:39Whatever you did, I'm going to get to the bottom of it.
00:43:48You know it'd be less stressful if you had a stronger drink.
00:43:51No, I'm good with this, thank you.
00:43:53Has my brother tried contacting you?
00:43:55He was quite adamant last time.
00:43:57No, he hasn't.
00:43:59That's good.
00:44:02Some of the staff have been approved time off,
00:44:04so we just need to address the budgets.
00:44:06Let me see that.
00:44:09Yeah, that's much better.
00:44:11I can really see the screen gleaming now.
00:44:14So I'll just need your signature here,
00:44:16and your signature here.
00:44:18So I'll just need your signature here,
00:44:21and here.
00:44:23Have I told you how beautiful you look today?
00:44:25What?
00:44:26Don't act all surprised.
00:44:28You surely have to know how you act around me when you're dressed like that.
00:44:31The only two of us here.
00:44:33Why are you so shy?
00:44:35I think we're done for the day.
00:44:37I didn't want to touch you, so...
00:44:40What the hell are you doing?
00:44:49Jack!
00:44:52Jack, that hurts! Let go of me!
00:44:54You know exactly what I mean, don't be so naive.
00:44:57Jack, stop!
00:44:59Why are you so resistant?
00:45:01I know you want this.
00:45:03I know you do.
00:45:05I can sense your sins.
00:45:09This is sexual assault, you won't get away with this.
00:45:12Yeah, so go fuck Rosie Adams before I will.
00:45:16You fucking bitch, where are you going?
00:45:31What's this?
00:45:33That's a half a million dollars.
00:45:35Not yours yet.
00:45:36Fine.
00:45:37I know you didn't just call me out of the blue for nothing.
00:45:41I was coming to you because I know you've got your daughter's best interest at heart.
00:45:45She's a special girl, that Eva.
00:45:49Now I can tell that you know your way around words.
00:45:51Can we just get straight to the point, please?
00:45:53Alright then.
00:45:55You're aware of stipulations in my father's will.
00:45:58Sure.
00:45:59I want to marry your daughter.
00:46:01There's been a misunderstanding.
00:46:03And I need you to smooth it over.
00:46:05What?
00:46:06Because, well, you're the only one that your daughter looks up to.
00:46:09You're the only one that your daughter looks up to.
00:46:11So what type of misunderstanding was this?
00:46:13I mean, why don't you just go to her and ask her forgiveness?
00:46:16I mean, my daughter doesn't hold grudges.
00:46:18I know my daughter.
00:46:19Well, that's between your daughter and I.
00:46:21I hope you understand.
00:46:22No, you see, I don't understand.
00:46:24Because you just made it my business by bringing it to me.
00:46:28Now tell me, was this a misunderstanding of a sexual nature?
00:46:32And was this misunderstanding non-consensual?
00:46:38As I said, this is between your daughter and I.
00:46:40Now we're all adults and we all know what happens behind closed doors.
00:46:43Now you see, you are more than a twisted rich prick if you think you're going to pay me to hush my daughter.
00:46:55Is that so?
00:46:56Yes, that is so.
00:46:57Now I don't know what tricks you have up your sleeve, but I can tell you this.
00:47:02There's nothing compared to the wrath of an angry woman.
00:47:06Wow.
00:47:07And you can best believe that if you did something bad to her, you'll pay for it.
00:47:13That I'll have to agree with.
00:47:16But how angry and heartbreaking would your daughter feel when she knows this isn't the first sweetener that you got from the Blackthorns?
00:47:23Sweetener? I don't know what you're talking about.
00:47:25I'm not done, Miss Harris.
00:47:28I didn't just come to you because I was feeling sentimental about your relationship with your daughter.
00:47:32I came here to offer you more money, an additional payment that you got from my father to introduce Eva.
00:47:38I really don't know what you're talking about.
00:47:41Spare me the bullshit. I've seen your signature on a couple documents.
00:47:45I just wonder how sane my father was when he changed the will.
00:47:48Best of my knowledge, only a minor would need a guardian signature.
00:47:52What do I know?
00:47:54That's not what happened.
00:47:56But I do know that in a court of law, a carer such as yourself taking advantage of a poor man's dying...
00:48:03What do you expect me to do, Jack?
00:48:05Hm?
00:48:06Wave this magic wand and just miraculously have my daughter forgive you?
00:48:10I don't know about your world, but in mine it doesn't work that way.
00:48:13It's a beautiful thing right now, isn't it?
00:48:15Maybe you should mention John or Anna Sui's name to your daughter.
00:48:19Maybe that will help.
00:48:20I'm sure you'd be more successful and a lot richer if you knew how to play your cards right.
00:48:24Maybe you might get the forgiveness of your daughter. I'm not sure, but that's up to you.
00:48:40So long, Bellevue Hotel.
00:48:55Hey, darling. How are you doing?
00:48:59I thought I wasn't seeing you to our lunch next week.
00:49:02Well, I was in the neighbourhood and I thought I'd bring us some pizza.
00:49:06Someone's in a good mood.
00:49:09Well, thank you for the pizza. Let's have it straight away.
00:49:13Pleasure. So, how have you been doing? You look really relaxed today.
00:49:19You haven't told me that my hair looks like a bird's nest or baggy clothes I'm wearing are going to scare off a serious viewer.
00:49:28Well, okay, so I can't even give you a compliment now and it's taken the opposite way.
00:49:33I can't even say nice things to you now.
00:49:35Rather, tell me how is things with that Blackthorn boy that you were smiling about the other day?
00:49:41Mimi and John?
00:49:42Yeah.
00:49:44We're no longer together and I honestly don't know if we ever were.
00:49:48Oh, okay. And what about the other one? I think it also starts with a J.
00:49:52Jack?
00:49:53Yeah, his name was Jack.
00:49:54Oh, I remember. Jack. How's things with him, Lars? I heard he was actually now your boss or something.
00:50:00Things between us are how they should be.
00:50:03What does that mean? Is there something else going on? You know that you can talk to me, sweetie.
00:50:15There was an incident between me and Jack. He got physical.
00:50:20Were you guys drinking?
00:50:22No, Mum. I wasn't drinking. Neither was he.
00:50:25Okay, I'm just asking. I mean, you know, what do you think is going to happen if you're alone with your boss?
00:50:32I mean, he's a handsome boy and you guys must be attracted to each other.
00:50:36What are you saying? That I wanted this? I didn't.
00:50:41I'm just saying you can use this to your advantage. I mean, things didn't work out with you and John.
00:50:46Why not just go with the other brother?
00:50:48That is so messed up. He tried to assault me.
00:50:53Can you hear yourself? I've just been through something really traumatic and I won't hear any more from you.
00:50:59I can't do this with you anymore, Mum.
00:51:02Every time I think we're trying to bond, you just start making unreasonable demands and...
00:51:07Can you just leave, please?
00:51:09Fine.
00:51:10I love you.
00:51:31Agent Motel One, Beyonce has stepped out in Paris in style.
00:51:34This is calling straight on the heels of news that the deal with the Blackphone Corporation has finally been sealed.
00:51:40Jack Light, the woman in the photos is engaged to someone else.
00:51:56Hey. Thank you for agreeing to see me.
00:52:05You sounded desperate. It was the least I could do.
00:52:09I know what it feels like not to be heard.
00:52:14I'm sorry about that.
00:52:17I did that because I just wanted to lash out and hurt you the same way you hurt me.
00:52:23For the hundredth time, I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:52:27Could you please get straight to the point?
00:52:29Why do you want to see me now? It's been weeks since you slammed your door in my face.
00:52:34I wanted to apologize because I acted unfairly.
00:52:40I was shown pictures and a live video of you with a beautiful Asian woman.
00:52:45Who? Ellis Wee? That's ridiculous. She's a client.
00:52:51I know that now, but at the time, it seemed like you guys were much more than clients.
00:52:55And, look, trust me, I just saw you guys live.
00:53:00Who showed you those pictures and videos? Who wanted to tear us apart?
00:53:07It was Jack, wasn't it?
00:53:10Yes, it was Jack. He completely manipulated me.
00:53:14He had access to security footage, and I completely fell for it.
00:53:20Oh, Eva.
00:53:21I just, I realized who she was after I saw a news segment of her and her fiancé.
00:53:27Oh.
00:53:28I'm here to apologize for the unkind way I treated you, and I embarrassed you, and...
00:53:35Can you please forgive me?
00:53:47I'm so sorry I was a bitch to you, Jack.
00:53:53Jack is a master manipulator.
00:53:56But I can't believe he got access to the security footage.
00:53:59I could sue for violation of privacy.
00:54:02I doubt the owners thought it through.
00:54:05I don't think so either, but Jack mentioned something about owing someone a favor.
00:54:10You must be so hurt.
00:54:12I'm sorry you were put in that position.
00:54:15Of course I forgive you.
00:54:17Why are you so kind to me?
00:54:20You should make me grovel, I deserve it.
00:54:22There's no point in that.
00:54:24We've wasted weeks already.
00:54:27I've missed you so much.
00:54:29I've missed you too.
00:54:38Your lips are as soft as I remember.
00:54:41I've missed yours too.
00:54:45Did anything happen between you and Jack?
00:54:48I don't know.
00:54:49Did anything happen between you and Jack?
00:54:52How did you ask? Did you see something?
00:54:55No, it's just...
00:54:57You were friendlier to him.
00:54:59That day at the office.
00:55:00No, nothing happened.
00:55:02Except when he tried to force himself upon me.
00:55:06It was late.
00:55:07He did what?
00:55:08It's fine.
00:55:10He didn't rape me.
00:55:11That fucking asshole!
00:55:13That son of a bitch, I'm gonna fucking kill him!
00:55:16Don't make excuses for him.
00:55:19What he did was fucked up.
00:55:34What the fuck's going on here?
00:55:37What the fuck does it look like, brother?
00:55:40My darling and I are just enjoying dinner together in our family home.
00:55:45Is that right, sweetheart?
00:55:46Yes, it is.
00:55:48Pasta is the best I've ever tasted in my life.
00:55:51Now, isn't that nice?
00:55:53Jack, surely you'd like to join us?
00:55:55Join you?
00:55:57No, thank you.
00:55:59Okay.
00:56:00You're a loss.
00:56:03It's good to see you both have reached each other again.
00:56:06How sweet.
00:56:08You must be thrilled.
00:56:10Yes, we are in fact very thrilled.
00:56:12It only took us a short while to find each other and that's how you know it's real.
00:56:18Right.
00:56:19And you've been missing work because of your lover?
00:56:24No.
00:56:29I've been missing work because my boss assaulted me.
00:56:33I had to resign.
00:56:35Or maybe HR hasn't mentioned that to you yet.
00:56:38Assault?
00:56:39Assault?
00:56:40You both know you seduce me.
00:56:43What assault?
00:56:44And HR?
00:56:46John, she's fucking lying.
00:56:49Can you repeat that, please?
00:56:51Slower this time.
00:56:53I don't think I quite heard you the first time.
00:56:56She's a...
00:56:57Eva's only here because her mummy sold her off.
00:57:02You don't know mummy told you this.
00:57:05What the hell are you talking about?
00:57:07What do you mean she sold me off?
00:57:09I don't know.
00:57:11Mama Harris put an extra clause into the claim because she wanted more money.
00:57:17What, you think she's just going to kick her daughter up a social ladder?
00:57:21No, no, no.
00:57:22She was only going to prove your father gave something in return.
00:57:26You're lying!
00:57:35Am I lying?
00:57:37Am I lying?
00:57:39Maybe you should ask her yourself.
00:57:41It's not the first time she's had Blackthorn money stuffed in her pocket.
00:57:47Did she surprise you with a visit?
00:57:51Yeah, she did.
00:57:53So that was you, you pushed it on me.
00:57:56My lips are sealed.
00:57:59When did you become such a terrible person, Jack?
00:58:03You're destroying the relationship between a mother and a daughter just to get what you want.
00:58:07She's already made her choice.
00:58:10Eva has chosen me just as I have chosen her.
00:58:14It's over, Jack.
00:58:16No, no.
00:58:19It's not over.
00:58:29Please say something.
00:58:30I don't know what to say other than I'm sorry we've put you through so much.
00:58:35You didn't ask for any of this.
00:58:38And I'm sorry that your mother hasn't been honest with you.
00:58:41That revelation about her must have hurt so much.
00:58:46I wonder why she just pushed Jack's assault to me on the side.
00:58:53She just...
00:58:55She didn't seem to care.
00:58:57She didn't seem to care about the trauma I went through.
00:59:05She just told me, look on the bright side.
00:59:11It's crazy that she pushed Jack onto me after what he did.
00:59:17I've been so stupid.
00:59:21Don't say that.
00:59:23You're kind and smart and good.
00:59:27And vulnerable to people trying to take advantage of you.
00:59:36I don't know what you're doing.
00:59:40Will you marry me?
00:59:46Will you marry me?
00:59:49Yes, yes, Jack, yes.
00:59:58Now we can finally put an end to all of this bullshit with my brother.
01:00:03I can't wait to see the look on his face when we tell him we're engaged.
01:00:07He's going to be furious.
01:00:10Okay, but we have to tell the lawyer about what's happened.
01:00:16Yes.
01:00:18But first, we need to celebrate.
01:00:22You're going to be my lovely wife, Eva.
01:00:24Cheers to us.
01:00:26Cheers.
01:00:37What the heavenly fuck?
01:00:43What's to you about this?
01:00:46When can I see you? It's urgent.
01:00:49When are you available?
01:00:51Yes, it's about the will.
01:00:54I'll have it up by you as soon as I can.
01:00:57No, John doesn't need to know about this. It's none of his concern.
01:01:07You got yourself into this and the only way out for you is to hold up your end of the bargain.
01:01:12My end of the bargain?
01:01:14You tampered with the contract and now everything is messed up.
01:01:18My daughter won't even speak to me.
01:01:20You can't just...
01:01:24What was that? She just flew out of here.
01:01:29That's confidential.
01:01:31Yeah, yeah, of course it is.
01:01:33Whoever that was, she was pissed.
01:01:35You said you had something to tell me. Something about the will?
01:01:38I have news.
01:01:40Please, sit.
01:01:42This is going to blow everything up in the air.
01:01:44Yes, yes, I'm listening.
01:01:46I want to contest my father's will.
01:01:48What?
01:01:50Well, he signed it and he was forced by Anna Harris. Probably under duress.
01:01:52What?
01:01:54I don't understand. If I have to sue John over it, so be it.
01:02:03Oh, Jack.
01:02:05What's so fucking funny?
01:02:07The contract your father signed with Anna Harris was not signed under duress.
01:02:12How can you be so sure of my private investigation?
01:02:14I'm sure because I was there when it was signed. It was your father's idea to begin with.
01:02:19But that's... it's not possible. It can't be.
01:02:22But why would my father sign a contract?
01:02:25He knew Anna Harris wanted money for her incentive.
01:02:28But he also made sure she had a reason to stay involved even after the money was paid to her.
01:02:36What reason?
01:02:38Your father was a smart man, though not unkind.
01:02:41He didn't get so wealthy by being a pushover.
01:02:45He included a clause in the contract that stipulated that if Angeline did not marry one of his sons, Anna would have to repay the money.
01:02:53Let me guess. Anna didn't know about that before she signed?
01:02:56She did not. Foolishly, she did not read the fine print.
01:03:01Your father left an apology note and me to explain exactly why he did what he did.
01:03:07Fuck.
01:03:09Jack Blackthorn. This is neither the time nor the place for that kind of language.
01:03:12Man, I was so close to getting this right.
01:03:16Why is my father always one step ahead? Even from the fucking grave.
01:03:21I understand you're upset. But if you had taken this to court, you would have been humiliated when it got thrown out of you.
01:03:27You did yourself a favor by coming to me first, son.
01:03:30I'm not your fucking son!
01:03:32You know what? This is all freaked from the inside.
01:03:34You just want little Johnny boy to win, huh?
01:03:37Guess what? I'm not going to give over and lay on my fucking grave.
01:03:39I'm not going to give over and lay on my fucking grave.
01:04:10What are you doing here?
01:04:11Where's your daughter?
01:04:12Not here.
01:04:15I told you she's not here. Are you deaf?
01:04:18Aaron's perfectly fine. Thank you very much.
01:04:21So this is where your daughter lives in this shithole.
01:04:24I guess they always show her fucking face for free money.
01:04:26Like mother, like daughter.
01:04:28Oh, excuse me.
01:04:29You can't come into my daughter's place and then throw insults around.
01:04:33What are you doing here anyway? You crazy. You need to get out or I'm pulling the cars.
01:04:37Funny from you? I'm not even supposed to be here.
01:04:39I'm her mother. I have a key.
01:04:43It was you at the lawyer's office, wasn't it?
01:04:46You need to get out.
01:04:50You can fuck things up with your daughter, eh? I would have had the upper hand.
01:04:53Oh, excuse me. If you weren't such a sleazy, creepy son of a bitch, you may have stood a chance with her.
01:05:00You dirty gold digger. Like a dirty daughter, eh?
01:05:02Guess that boy doesn't fall too far from the tree, does he?
01:05:08Hannah, what the fuck? Say something.
01:05:11You.
01:05:13What?
01:05:14You.
01:05:15What are you saying?
01:05:16Help.
01:05:17No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:05:20Hannah, don't you get it? Don't hit on me.
01:05:28There's a woman that she's, she's unconscious. She's suddenly fell.
01:05:32There's a woman that she's, she's unconscious. She's suddenly fell.
01:05:39I don't know anything about medication. She's hit her head.
01:05:46Pick up the fucking phone, John. Pick it up.
01:05:52What the fuck is the fuck?
01:06:02Mm-mm.
01:06:04Mm.
01:06:32I'm so gonna miss this place. Even though it's small, but I was independent and happy here.
01:06:49Don't get too comfy. We're only here to pick up your things. You're gonna love living in the mansion.
01:06:58That's weird.
01:07:00What's weird?
01:07:02Something feels off. I don't know. The apartment seems cleaner than I remember.
01:07:08Maybe your mother came by. You mentioned she had a key.
01:07:11Yeah, I doubt that. Anna hated this place. Cleaning's the last thing she'd do here.
01:07:17Maybe you just left it cleaner than you remember.
01:07:23Um, I'd like to bring something that you could wear. They're not sophisticated, but I like them.
01:07:30What about your toiletries?
01:07:33Good idea. I just need to pack my things from the bathroom.
01:07:45Hey, Ava. I need to go.
01:07:50What? Why?
01:07:52I've been ignoring Jack's calls, but he just sent me a message saying there's been an emergency. I need to go meet him.
01:07:59I hope he's okay. Is he still your brother or not?
01:08:02I'm sure he's fine. It's probably just a flat tire or something. I'll be back ASAP.
01:08:09Don't stay too long, okay?
01:08:30Where's Mum's earring?
01:08:34Dad's.
01:08:43Dad's.
01:08:47You. You sent John a message.
01:08:52Yes, I did.
01:08:54What are you doing?
01:08:55Where did you come from? Is this one of your games you're playing at? Give me that! That's Mum's!
01:09:01I'll take that, thank you.
01:09:05You didn't answer my question. What are you doing inside my apartment?
01:09:10I was unlocked and I just walked in.
01:09:12That's impossible.
01:09:14I would have heard you. Why did you text John about an emergency when he was already coming here yourself?
01:09:19What are you trying to say?
01:09:20I would have heard you. Why did you text John about an emergency when he was already coming here yourself?
01:09:24What are you trying to imply, Eva? That I broke into your house or lied to my brother?
01:09:29I'm not trying to imply anything. But something isn't adding up, I'm calling John.
01:09:34Come on, Eva. You can trust me. We're going to be family after all.
01:09:40How did you know about the engagement?
01:09:42Maybe John told you.
01:09:44No, he didn't.
01:09:48Let go of me!
01:09:50Please, listen.
01:09:52No!
01:09:54No!
01:09:59Don't say anything. Keep your mouth shut.
01:10:08Hello, brother. No, I don't know where she is.
01:10:13That mistake was a mistake. I'm out of town right now.
01:10:21Sorry, I had something in my throat. Well, wherever she is, I'm sure she'll be home soon.
01:10:33What do you want? Why are you doing this?
01:10:36I haven't figured that one out yet. I do know that my brother is doing anything for you.
01:10:41Maybe I want to see him suffer.
01:10:43What did you do with Anna?
01:10:45Stop with fucking stupid questions!
01:10:51John!
01:10:59You be a good little girl and don't fucking move or I'll put a bullet in your head!
01:11:03I won't. I won't say anything.
01:11:07Then I'll be fucking serious.
01:11:09Whatever it is you want, I'll do it. Just watch.
01:11:13Whatever it is you want, I'll do it.
01:11:15Don't do anything stupid, otherwise I'll send you to meet your mother.
01:11:18What did you just say? What about my mother?
01:11:22Oops, did I say something?
01:11:25Hey! Do you know how to drive a car?
01:11:28Get in the driver's seat now.
01:11:37Yes, I understand. But this is an emergency.
01:11:39Mr. Blackthorn would appreciate it if the matter was dealt with urgently.
01:11:45I understand. Thank you.
01:11:50Is there any news yet?
01:11:52I'm afraid not. The commissioner insists that we have to wait at least 48 hours before we can declare her missing.
01:11:58Damn it. It's the same thing they told me. Can't they even pretend to care?
01:12:04Have you tried calling Jack again?
01:12:05He isn't answering. I don't know what's wrong with him.
01:12:08First he sends me those cryptic text messages, and now he's not answering my calls.
01:12:13Maybe he'll answer yours.
01:12:15I doubt it, but I can try just in case.
01:12:27This might be bad timing, but Jack came to see me the other day.
01:12:30He wanted to contest your father's will. He was, uh, ready to sue you.
01:12:35What? What do you mean he was ready to sue me?
01:12:39He believed Anna tricked your father into giving her money.
01:12:42And he wanted to prove that that may have impacted the will.
01:12:46That's preposterous. Why wasn't I told about this earlier?
01:12:50I didn't think it was important because I clarified to Jack that he was misguided.
01:12:54I should have been the one to tell him.
01:12:55I didn't think it was important because I clarified to Jack that he was misguided.
01:12:57I didn't think it was important because I clarified to Jack that he was misguided.
01:13:00I should have been the one to tell him.
01:13:02You're meant to be impartial, remember?
01:13:13Hello, Johnny boy! Frankie!
01:13:16What a great evening this is tonight, isn't it?
01:13:19Jack, you're so surprised, are you?
01:13:21Bet you didn't see this one coming out, did ya?
01:13:24Keep him where I can see him now.
01:13:26You don't have to do this, Jack.
01:13:28No, I've done something really stupid. I can't take it back now.
01:13:33What did you do? We can work this out, just the two of us.
01:13:37He did something to my mother. Isn't that right, Jack?
01:13:40Shut up! You know what you're talking about!
01:13:46I found Anna's earring in my apartment and then he threatened to shoot me!
01:13:51No, no, no, no. It was an accident.
01:13:54I didn't mean to do it. I didn't mean to kill her.
01:14:03It's okay. Like you said, it was just an accident. We can work this out together.
01:14:10I'm sorry, man. I didn't mean it to come this way. I don't know what I'm doing anymore.
01:14:15It's okay, brother. We can work this out, just the two of us, before all this craziness happened.
01:14:24No, it's not okay! You murdered my mother!
01:14:27Eva, no!
