00:00:00Please, Mom, just five more minutes.
00:00:03Okay, I swear, I'm almost done.
00:00:05Just one more teacher and I'll be done with the school registration stuff.
00:00:08Alice, hurry up. I mean it.
00:00:11I don't want your stepfather to have to wait for you the first time you meet him.
00:00:31Come on, Ms. King.
00:00:33Just a little bump.
00:00:35Something respectable.
00:00:40No one has to know.
00:00:44I could help you, James, but...
00:01:01Oh, my God.
00:01:03He's doing it with the teacher.
00:01:22Be quiet.
00:01:31All right, new girl.
00:01:33Whatever you think you saw, it wasn't that.
00:01:36Oh, yeah?
00:01:38Then what are you doing this for?
00:01:40That's unrelated.
00:01:45Keep your mouth shut, or I'll make you.
00:01:48Got it?
00:01:50Go, asshole!
00:01:56Maddie was just asking for it.
00:02:01You know you still smell like Ms. King's perfume.
00:02:05Right?
00:02:07Yeah, I take a cold shower and get that off before anyone else catches on.
00:02:13Oh!
00:02:30I shouldn't have expected your dad to teach you any better.
00:02:39Now he's dead.
00:02:41And, of course, I have to teach his useless slob of a daughter how to tell time.
00:02:46I got lost at the new school.
00:02:48Mom, I'm sorry. It won't happen again.
00:02:51You better thank Mr. Hawthorne later.
00:02:54He's paying for your new fancy school.
00:02:57But don't get it twisted.
00:03:00You'll always be an outsider in this family.
00:03:03Just keep your head down low and stay out of trouble.
00:03:07No one's cleaning up after you.
00:03:11Come on.
00:03:21And you must be Alice.
00:03:23Come on in, sweetheart. Welcome to your new home.
00:03:27Alice, where are your manners?
00:03:30If it weren't for Mr. Hawthorne, you'd still be rotting in the slums.
00:03:34Apologize.
00:03:36Sorry. Thank you, Mr. Hawthorne.
00:03:41That's just my son, James. He's a bit of a troublemaker, but he's a good kid at heart.
00:03:45He just got home from school, too, so you guys will meet later at dinner.
00:03:52You know, Alice, I've always wanted a daughter just like you.
00:03:56Smart, kind.
00:03:58If you ever need anything, don't hesitate to ask James. He'll help you out.
00:04:03That's right. The Hawthorne heir is now your stepbrother.
00:04:07So you'd better listen to him and behave.
00:04:11Wait. I'm going to use the bathroom.
00:04:22It's him.
00:04:25Cold shower. Just like you asked.
00:04:29So you're that gold digger's daughter. Huh, stepsis?
00:04:35So you're that gold digger's daughter.
00:04:39Stepsis.
00:04:41Ah!
00:04:43Oh!
00:04:45Oh!
00:04:47Oh!
00:04:49Oh!
00:04:51Oh!
00:04:56Run, rabbit, run. Or I'll catch you.
00:05:00Why him? Of all people, why is he my stepbrother?
00:05:05I literally caught him with Miss Skeen. He's going to kill me.
00:05:09Nice of you to join us, James.
00:05:12This is Alice. This is Eva's daughter.
00:05:16She'll be going to St. Mary's as well.
00:05:18I want you to finally act your age and show her around.
00:05:23Alice is great. I'm sure you two will get along in no time.
00:05:28Oh, I think she already knows me pretty well. After all, she's already seen my...
00:05:33Name tag. His name tag.
00:05:37There is this thing at school and, um...
00:05:42His name is James.
00:05:46What? They didn't teach you how to swallow in public school?
00:05:51James.
00:05:52Maybe. But you know, at least I'm not fucking my teacher for grades.
00:05:58Apparently some kids do that here.
00:06:00But gosh, I can't imagine.
00:06:03Alice, language.
00:06:09Don't worry, Miss Bell. I think we'll get along just fine.
00:06:14Yes.
00:06:20Yo. Notes on every single page.
00:06:26What the hell are you doing in my room?
00:06:29I'm sorry, your room? I don't think anything in this house is yours.
00:06:35One more time, buddy.
00:06:39Keep quiet about the thing with Miss Keene.
00:06:42And I'll help you out of school. Or else.
00:06:46Or else what?
00:06:51God, fucking rich kids.
00:06:53What are you going to do? Slap me with a hundred dollar bill?
00:06:58Really? Still hiding your vibrator underneath your pillow?
00:07:02What are you, twelve?
00:07:04Give it back, you asshole!
00:07:09Intro toy for virgins? Really?
00:07:12No one's ever taken you on a date, Stepsies?
00:07:14Do not call me that.
00:07:16Your mom wanted us to get along.
00:07:19I don't know.
00:07:21Do you want to date, Stepsies?
00:07:23Do not call me that.
00:07:25Your mom wanted us to get along.
00:07:27So...
00:07:30Mom bought this.
00:07:35You can't scare me with that.
00:07:40I'm calling your bluff.
00:07:46Is this what you wanted to see?
00:07:49Yeah, brother.
00:08:03Don't look at me like that.
00:08:05Or next time I'm putting that toy somewhere else.
00:08:07Behave.
00:08:20James Hawthorne.
00:08:22You're horrible.
00:08:29Stop it.
00:08:31You cannot be fantasizing about your stepbrother right now.
00:08:50You have a great day at school.
00:08:53James is outside. Remember, don't forget to ask him if you need anything, okay?
00:09:03You're smoking here?
00:09:06My dad doesn't give a fuck what I do.
00:09:08That man only cares about my grades.
00:09:10So don't think you're getting a free ride just because he said so.
00:09:13No.
00:09:16James, you're disgusting. Give it back.
00:09:19I told you.
00:09:21Keep my secret, and I'll keep yours.
00:09:34James, I'm throwing a party tonight.
00:09:38I'm not going.
00:09:42James, I'm throwing a party tonight.
00:09:46We can go all night, just like we used to.
00:09:49Oh, and my dad just got a ton of imported wine from France.
00:09:54It's a limited run. You'll love it.
00:09:56James, you are such a dick!
00:10:01I'm sorry. Do I know you?
00:10:04You.
00:10:06I mean, I wouldn't mind getting to know you.
00:10:12Excuse me. Who are you?
00:10:15I just moved here.
00:10:17Oh. Okay.
00:10:20Was your dad, like, a math professor or something?
00:10:24Did he work in tech?
00:10:26What?
00:10:28No, he was a mechanic.
00:10:32Oh.
00:10:34No wonder you smell like diesel oil.
00:10:36Chip off the old exhaust pipe, I guess.
00:10:38My dad actually just passed away,
00:10:40so I would really appreciate it if you didn't talk about him like that.
00:10:46I mean, I'm just saying the truth, which is, um...
00:10:50Ew! You stink.
00:10:53Do you still live in the shop or something?
00:10:56Like, we have gym showers.
00:10:58You could use them, you know?
00:11:01At least my dad taught me manners.
00:11:03Yours clearly didn't.
00:11:08Knock it off, Kim.
00:11:11Hey, that's enough picket on the new girl, all right?
00:11:14All right.
00:11:16That's enough picket on the new girl, yeah?
00:11:19Oh, um, thanks.
00:11:22Yeah.
00:11:24You know what?
00:11:26Oh, um, thanks.
00:11:29Yeah.
00:11:31I'm David.
00:11:33So, how about this party tonight?
00:11:35Want to come with me?
00:11:38Uh, I... I don't...
00:11:41Alice, it's your first day.
00:11:44Everyone's going. Just give it to the crowd.
00:11:46Be my date.
00:11:57Too much skin?
00:12:00Nah, screw it.
00:12:02It's my first real party.
00:12:06Wow.
00:12:08Real conservative.
00:12:10Why even wear anything at that point?
00:12:12I'm sorry, do I know you?
00:12:15Why do you even care, anyways?
00:12:18You know you're hopping right into David's trap, right?
00:12:21Is that the message you really want to send?
00:12:24Why is it always sex with you people?
00:12:27Why can't he just like me for me?
00:12:29He seems nice.
00:12:31If you're such a slut that you'll go with just anybody,
00:12:35why not go with me?
00:12:38I'm sorry, do I know you?
00:12:41Why do you even care, anyways?
00:12:44I'm sorry, do I know you?
00:12:47Why do you even care, anyways?
00:12:53What? No!
00:12:56Jesus Christ, you're my step-brother.
00:12:58Step?
00:13:00So?
00:13:03So?
00:13:14So I guess you do have some boundaries, huh?
00:13:22Well, gotta go.
00:13:25My date's here.
00:13:33Yo, Kim.
00:13:35You still up for tonight?
00:14:03Who the fuck invited her?
00:14:14Baby, you look amazing.
00:14:17Thanks.
00:14:19Thank you for being my date tonight.
00:14:23Let me get you a drink, okay?
00:14:25Yeah.
00:14:33Shit, I didn't know he was coming.
00:14:54Do you drink?
00:14:56Uh, no.
00:14:58Wanna show me?
00:15:02Yeah.
00:15:26Hey, my head really hurts.
00:15:28You're fine, baby.
00:15:30You're gonna find somewhere to lay down, huh?
00:15:33No, I wanna go home.
00:15:46You are beautiful.
00:15:49I wanna go back.
00:15:54You got a special bro-house.
00:15:57You're gonna be mine.
00:16:01Sorry, David.
00:16:03I'd rather just be friends.
00:16:08Bet!
00:16:11You think I'm doing this to be friendly?
00:16:14Because I wanna be friends?
00:16:17I'm gonna bet, okay?
00:16:20Because they said you were a virgin.
00:16:23And I'm supposed to find out.
00:16:31No.
00:16:42I knew you wanted me, baby.
00:16:46You take cash.
00:16:49That's the play, right?
00:16:50Get into private school.
00:16:52Work hard.
00:16:54Be like any rich guy.
00:16:56No.
00:16:57No, he can't stop.
00:17:00No.
00:17:10You really are a virgin.
00:17:12It's your lucky day.
00:17:13Stop!
00:17:14Is anyone there?
00:17:16Help!
00:17:17Somebody!
00:17:18Somebody help!
00:17:31Come on.
00:17:36You okay?
00:17:43Touch her!
00:17:48She's nobody.
00:17:49I call dibs.
00:17:55I feel really bad.
00:17:57I just wanna go home.
00:18:01Did you fucking drug her?
00:18:06Fuck you!
00:18:07I didn't care about some trailer trash anyway.
00:18:10Please.
00:18:11Come on.
00:18:12I fucked up, okay?
00:18:13Please.
00:18:14Come on, you know me.
00:18:16Please.
00:18:17Your dad's a friend.
00:18:18Please.
00:18:19Fuck.
00:18:21Transfer out of St. Mary's.
00:18:22Or your dad's getting this into business with another mom.
00:18:28Okay.
00:18:31Come on.
00:18:39Please.
00:18:40Just touch me.
00:18:41Please.
00:18:43Stop it, Alice.
00:18:44You stepped all up for fuck's sake.
00:18:56Alice.
00:18:57Look at me.
00:18:58Alice.
00:18:59Do you know who I am?
00:19:01Yes, you're James.
00:19:03Or my stepbrother or whatever.
00:19:05Why does it matter?
00:19:07I just want you to touch me.
00:19:11Fuck.
00:19:12You're the only girl I can't have.
00:19:18Okay.
00:19:19Fine.
00:19:20You win.
00:19:21Okay?
00:19:23You have to let go just for a second.
00:19:26Okay?
00:19:28There we go.
00:19:29That's my good girl.
00:19:40Come on.
00:19:45Get in.
00:19:50Alice.
00:19:51You were drunk.
00:19:52I need you to take a cold shower.
00:19:53You gotta get out of your system.
00:19:56Can you do that for me?
00:19:58Yeah?
00:19:59Okay.
00:20:00Take a shower.
00:20:09I can't get it off.
00:20:20Come on.
00:20:25Jesus.
00:20:55Come on.
00:21:05You love me.
00:21:09I can't.
00:21:10Go backstairs.
00:21:15You're a virgin.
00:21:16I can't.
00:21:18Control.
00:21:22I need the other thing.
00:21:26What?
00:21:32To make you feel good.
00:21:52Shit.
00:21:53I think I just kissed my stepbrother.
00:22:05Fuck.
00:22:06Okay.
00:22:08Let's both agree.
00:22:09This never happened.
00:22:10Yeah.
00:22:12James, is that you in there?
00:22:21James.
00:22:24James.
00:22:25Is that you in there?
00:22:31Yeah.
00:22:32What?
00:22:35Hey.
00:22:36I know you're not happy with Eva,
00:22:38but you gotta take it easy on Alice.
00:22:41Just like you, James.
00:22:43Do the right thing.
00:22:51Do the right thing.
00:22:53Do the right thing.
00:22:58I got it, Dad.
00:23:00I'll be right there.
00:23:01Get out.
00:23:31Get out.
00:23:41Let's both agree.
00:23:42This never happened.
00:23:43Yeah.
00:23:46Okay.
00:23:47I might have fucked up,
00:23:50but nothing's changed between us.
00:23:55Alice!
00:23:56Go get James her breakfast.
00:23:59Alright, Mom.
00:24:01Great.
00:24:02First he fucking kisses me,
00:24:04and now I'm in charge of waking him up.
00:24:09Come on, bro.
00:24:10Tell me about your stepsis.
00:24:12Is she cool?
00:24:14Is she hot?
00:24:29Neither, man.
00:24:30No tits.
00:24:31No ass.
00:24:32She's not even developed.
00:24:33She looks like 12.
00:24:35Stop lying, bro.
00:24:37You know I'm gonna see for myself tonight.
00:24:39Whatever.
00:24:45Oh.
00:24:47Um.
00:24:49So.
00:24:50It's the first I'm hearing about a party tonight.
00:24:54There's no party.
00:24:55It, uh,
00:24:56it got canceled.
00:24:57Mike's just talking out of his ass.
00:24:59Come on, James.
00:25:01I should meet my stepbrother's best friend, right?
00:25:05Who knows?
00:25:06He might like me.
00:25:28Yes.
00:25:32No out for kids.
00:25:34So is everyone else.
00:25:35So.
00:25:36That's your sister?
00:25:37She's banging on it.
00:25:39Hi.
00:25:40I'm Alice.
00:25:41Yo, Mike.
00:25:42So, does James ever, like, talk about me?
00:25:46Yeah.
00:25:47He does.
00:25:48He does.
00:25:49He does.
00:25:50He does.
00:25:51He does.
00:25:52He does.
00:25:53He does.
00:25:54He does.
00:25:55He does.
00:25:57Oh, yeah.
00:25:58All the time.
00:25:59Take this.
00:26:01Don't worry.
00:26:02I'll be good.
00:26:03She's your sister.
00:26:04Wanna get away for a bit?
00:26:14You don't understand.
00:26:15No, like, you're hot hot.
00:26:18Thanks.
00:26:20Sorry.
00:26:22Shit.
00:26:24Do you know how annoying it is to get that stain out?
00:26:29What the hell, man?
00:26:30Calm down.
00:26:31She's your sister.
00:26:32Cut her some slack.
00:26:34You trap me for that shit?
00:26:37Okay.
00:26:38Okay.
00:26:39Jesus.
00:26:40I'm gonna grab something out of your room.
00:26:42Don't be too hard on her.
00:26:52Mike screws with everybody.
00:26:53I'm gonna be careful, promise you.
00:26:55Yeah, like you're any better?
00:26:58I'm gonna go.
00:27:22You see?
00:27:23Someone's gonna see.
00:27:27Then I guess I'm not getting what I want.
00:27:30What do you want?
00:27:37You.
00:27:39You're beautiful.
00:27:42I thought you said I was barely developed.
00:27:45Yeah.
00:27:46Well, I lied.
00:27:52I'm sorry.
00:28:03Alright, kids.
00:28:04Everybody out.
00:28:05Party's over.
00:28:08James, the word.
00:28:13What, you're here by yourself?
00:28:14You're here by yourself?
00:28:20Inside.
00:28:21Now.
00:28:34Another after-
00:28:38And more importantly, your principal called and said you beat a boy into a bloody pulp.
00:28:44What's next?
00:28:45Duty?
00:28:46Jail?
00:28:48Whatever.
00:28:49You don't even know what he did.
00:28:50Speak up.
00:28:52You don't know what he did.
00:28:53He fucking deserved it.
00:28:55I don't care what he did.
00:28:56I care what you do.
00:28:58All you do is make my life-
00:29:03What's wrong with you?
00:29:04I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
00:29:06Say that again.
00:29:09What are you gonna do?
00:29:10You gonna hit me, old man?
00:29:11Go ahead.
00:29:15But you're-
00:29:24Stop!
00:29:36You're his dad.
00:29:38You should be protecting him, helping him.
00:29:41You just sort of-
00:29:45I'm sorry.
00:29:51He's trying to defend me.
00:29:53Okay?
00:29:54David, he-
00:29:56He put the-
00:30:03What about the grades?
00:30:05I- I don't know.
00:30:08I could help him.
00:30:09I- I get-
00:30:10Okay, grades.
00:30:11She's dead.
00:30:15Does that work?
00:30:18One month.
00:30:19Get your grades up.
00:30:25I need to go.
00:30:35Let go.
00:30:36I'm not letting go until you at least let me put ointment on that.
00:30:40Fine.
00:30:44I'm sorry.
00:30:49He drugged me, James.
00:30:53You don't-
00:30:54You don't understand.
00:30:55No. No, I- I don't care what happened.
00:30:57You can't just-
00:31:02Protecting him.
00:31:03Helping him.
00:31:04You just started yelling at him.
00:31:05You didn't even ask him what happened or anything.
00:31:08Alright, then, Alice.
00:31:09You tell me.
00:31:10What's with the grades?
00:31:11And what's with the fight?
00:31:13He was-
00:31:19He put something in my drink and I blacked out and he was just trying to help me.
00:31:24Oh, okay, sure.
00:31:25So he saved-
00:31:31I- I get-
00:31:33Okay, grades.
00:31:34She's thinking of me.
00:31:35Maybe I could tutor him or something.
00:31:37Would that-
00:31:43If you don't, I'm sending you back to your mother in Barcelona.
00:31:49I've never seen you like this.
00:31:51Okay, James, hold on.
00:31:57Let go.
00:31:58I'm not letting go.
00:32:08Why didn't you just tell your dad why you punched David?
00:32:11He drugged me, James.
00:32:14You really think he'd believe me?
00:32:19I didn't think you'd want your mom to find out about that.
00:32:22Oh.
00:32:24Yeah, yeah, I guess.
00:32:28If your dad is so strict, why are you living with him instead of your mom?
00:32:35My mom has a big family in Spain.
00:32:37Lots of cousins and stuff, you know.
00:32:39So, she's fine.
00:32:42But my dad, it's just him and me.
00:32:45We used to spend a lot of time together.
00:32:48We used to go hunting.
00:32:50Not so much anymore.
00:32:53I see.
00:32:56Is she the one who gave you the eternal rose?
00:32:59Yeah, it's an eternal rose.
00:33:02It'll never die.
00:33:04She told me to only give it to the girl I fall in love with.
00:33:08Hey.
00:33:10Thanks, Alice.
00:33:13For everything.
00:33:17Somebody's gotta do it, right?
00:33:20I mean, can you imagine showing up to school tomorrow with a busted lip?
00:33:24Gosh, just think about what Kim would say.
00:33:31Anyways, I have to come up with a tutoring schedule for you.
00:33:35Because starting tomorrow, it is boot camp every day until you get your grades up.
00:33:43Hey, earlier, is it because you didn't want me to leave, right?
00:33:50Hey, earlier, is it because you didn't want me to leave, right?
00:33:56Um, yeah, yeah, I guess.
00:34:02You're an asshole.
00:34:05But, it's still your family.
00:34:09You're an important part of it.
00:34:14Right, so, I'm gonna go.
00:34:26Sorry about touching you before.
00:34:29It's fine, I don't even remember.
00:34:33Really?
00:34:36Do you remember?
00:34:40How it felt to have your hands on my body?
00:34:58Alice!
00:35:00Oh, sorry.
00:35:01Oh, it's fine.
00:35:03Hey.
00:35:06See you tomorrow?
00:35:08Yeah.
00:35:10See you tomorrow.
00:35:16And I heard about the tutoring.
00:35:19What a great idea, James, getting Alice to help.
00:35:23I'm so glad you two are getting along.
00:35:27I'm gonna go get something.
00:35:28You better get his grades up.
00:35:30Don't forget, I can kick you out any time I want.
00:35:36I've got my eye on you, Alice Bell.
00:35:40There you go, Alice.
00:35:42Just listen to me and everything will be fine.
00:35:48Mom, you know I'm allergic to honey!
00:35:51Mom, you know I'm allergic to honey!
00:36:16Hey, guys.
00:36:18Wanna do something fun?
00:36:33Oh my god, are you okay?
00:36:40Oh my god, your swimsuit just came off!
00:36:47Kim, give it back!
00:36:49What do we think, boys?
00:36:53Kim, please, just give it back!
00:36:55I'll give it back.
00:36:57If you tell me what's going on between you and James.
00:37:00That is between me and James!
00:37:03Baby girl, you think you're special?
00:37:06You're just a new face.
00:37:08James is gonna get tired of you in a week.
00:37:10And I'm going to make sure you never come back to St. Mary's.
00:37:13Okay, fine! Just give it back!
00:37:18Here.
00:37:29That's what you get for talking to James, slut.
00:37:34Oh, baby, you smell good!
00:37:47Oh my god!
00:37:57Everyone turn around, now!
00:38:03It's gross!
00:38:12Here.
00:38:18Thanks.
00:38:23You're giving her your shirt?
00:38:25But you never let me borrow any of your stuff!
00:38:28Last warning, Kim.
00:38:30I don't want to see you bullying her again.
00:38:32What? It was a joke.
00:38:35Why don't I find someone to do that to you, then?
00:38:40Everything's okay.
00:38:42Fuck off.
00:38:44None of this would have happened if Kim didn't have it out for you.
00:38:48Come on, that's not fair.
00:38:51It's not my fault I'm popular.
00:38:53I can sell them with step-siblings if you want.
00:39:00But I have a feeling you don't want that.
00:39:03And why's that?
00:39:05I don't know.
00:39:07You might have feelings for me or something.
00:39:12Ha ha.
00:39:13Ha ha.
00:39:17Good one!
00:39:21James.
00:39:23God, what is it with me?
00:39:26There's no way I'm actually falling for him.
00:39:39Aw, Alice.
00:39:41Why are you being so careful?
00:39:43You think I will see your tits again?
00:39:54Oh, you poor girl.
00:39:57You're shivering like a gross chihuahua.
00:40:00Sorry, babe.
00:40:02But James isn't here right now.
00:40:05Don't fucking touch me!
00:40:10Come on, ladies.
00:40:14What did I ever do to you?
00:40:17I swear to God, all you nerds must be reading from the same script or something.
00:40:21It's because it's fun for me, Alice.
00:40:24Because I can do whatever I want to you.
00:40:26And no one's going to save you.
00:40:28That's the difference between us.
00:40:31I'm Kim Samuels, heir to the Samuels fortune.
00:40:34And you're just a blip in my radar.
00:40:36And all you have is money!
00:40:38God, you're ugly, you're a bitch!
00:40:40And all you're good for is bullying people three to one!
00:40:44But guess what, Kim?
00:40:46I don't care!
00:40:48Because you're pathetic!
00:40:50You're loud.
00:40:52Teach her some manners, m'kay?
00:40:54Let's show her how we run things at St. Mary's.
00:41:02Ever seen one of these before, baby?
00:41:05One of these costs more than your down-low skin.
00:41:07But today, I'll let you try.
00:41:10For free.
00:41:13Let's see.
00:41:15You're going to drop out of St. Mary's,
00:41:17then get pregnant by some random army guy,
00:41:20and then, boom!
00:41:2220 years later,
00:41:24you're going to have, like, eight kids,
00:41:26and they're all going to be screaming and crying in your gross apartment
00:41:30that's smaller than my own suit.
00:41:33And I'm going to get jealous.
00:41:35And I'm going to get James all to myself.
00:41:48Oh.
00:41:50You didn't like my housewarming gift?
00:41:52Don't worry.
00:41:54I have backups.
00:42:05You can't! That's a felony!
00:42:07Oh, Alice, baby.
00:42:09I can do whatever I want.
00:42:12Oh, well.
00:42:14You did have such great teachers.
00:42:16It's a shame you didn't come from privilege.
00:42:18Let's see how much James Hawthorne likes your face after this.
00:42:20Whore.
00:42:22Do you think James is just going to like you if I'm gone?
00:42:24You're insane!
00:42:26You don't deserve to be with the heir to the Hawthorne empire.
00:42:28No, please! Don't hurt me!
00:42:35Take your hands off of her!
00:42:49Alice.
00:42:51Are you okay?
00:42:53I knew it would be him.
00:42:55I don't care anymore if he's my stepbrother.
00:42:57I'm here, buddy.
00:42:59I just want him.
00:43:01James!
00:43:03Don't tell me you're actually with this discount whore.
00:43:05What is she to you?
00:43:08She's mine.
00:43:11Alice is mine.
00:43:14No.
00:43:16You're lying.
00:43:18You're kidding.
00:43:20Tell her to leave.
00:43:22You're supposed to be with me.
00:43:24No, I'm not.
00:43:26I don't like you.
00:43:28I never liked you.
00:43:30And I never want to see you again.
00:43:33Apologize to Alice now!
00:43:36I'm not fucking apologizing for anything.
00:43:40I...
00:43:42I'm supposed to be with you.
00:43:44That's what we're supposed to do.
00:43:46And my dad...
00:43:48We have trade deals.
00:43:50The Hawthorne empire has thousands...
00:43:52Millions riding on my dad's decisions.
00:43:55You can't just...
00:43:57You can't just ignore me for some poor girl from the hood.
00:43:59You're delusional.
00:44:00You think my dad cares about your money?
00:44:02What? No, James!
00:44:04Or do you want me to tell your parents?
00:44:06Show up at your house.
00:44:08Let them know what their darling baby daughter's been up to.
00:44:10So they can send you to a shrink.
00:44:12And off to boarding school.
00:44:14Maybe that'll teach you a thing or two about pulling a knife on someone.
00:44:19And you two.
00:44:21Transfer out of St. Mary's.
00:44:23No, no! My mom's gonna kill me!
00:44:25Please, James!
00:44:27Please, anything but that.
00:44:28Our parents can't know.
00:44:30Fine.
00:44:32Then I'll have my dad ruin you.
00:44:34Financially.
00:44:37This is all your fault, you bitch!
00:44:39Before you're going down, you're coming down with us!
00:44:44Stop!
00:44:47Your dad will never let you leave with someone like her!
00:44:50That's my business with him.
00:44:52Not yours.
00:44:59James!
00:45:11Huh.
00:45:13Who was that?
00:45:16As I was saying, Miss Bell.
00:45:18I wanted to talk with you about Alice.
00:45:20She seems to be having a really good time at school.
00:45:23Really? How come?
00:45:25I mean, no offense, Miss Bell.
00:45:26But this is a private school.
00:45:28With a lot of history.
00:45:30You might have heard of the Hawthorne Empire?
00:45:32Robert Hawthorne's son goes here, actually.
00:45:35And your daughter, frankly, she doesn't fit in here.
00:45:42Miss Kane.
00:45:44Do you know who I am?
00:45:47I hate her!
00:45:49I hate that fucking Alice bitch!
00:45:51Why is she hitting on my guy?
00:45:56Bitch!
00:45:58Fucking whore!
00:46:03Did you just call her a whore?
00:46:06Alice, why?
00:46:08Are you her bitch mom?
00:46:12Are you crazy?
00:46:14Do you know who I am?
00:46:16I'm Kim Samuels.
00:46:18Yes, that Samuels.
00:46:20My dad plays golf with Robert Hawthorne.
00:46:23That's enough, Kim!
00:46:24This is Mrs. Hawthorne.
00:46:26Robert Hawthorne's new wife.
00:46:30You...
00:46:32You're married to him?
00:46:34Yes, Miss Temper Tantrum.
00:46:36I'm Mrs. Hawthorne.
00:46:38The one who golfs with your dad.
00:46:41And Alice is my daughter.
00:46:49Wow.
00:46:51So you're James' new stepmother.
00:46:54Do you want to know what your daughter's been doing with her stepbrother?
00:47:11At dinner, why'd you call me your stepbrother?
00:47:17Do you really just see me as an older sibling?
00:47:20You are going to have to finish this tonight if you want to find out.
00:47:28You want to finish it?
00:47:49Yes.
00:48:11I knew it. I knew she was into me.
00:48:19What did I just see you do, Alice?
00:48:23Answer me, Alice.
00:48:25Are you sick?
00:48:27He's the Hawthorne heir!
00:48:30Your stepbrother!
00:48:32Mom!
00:48:38What else did you do with him?
00:48:40Did you sleep with him?
00:48:42Tell me, Alice!
00:48:43No, Mom, I really didn't.
00:48:45I'm doing this for you.
00:48:48If Robert finds out about you and James, they're going to throw us both out.
00:48:53Do you want to go back living in that dingy apartment?
00:48:56Really, Mom?
00:48:57Because it sounds like it's more about you not getting kicked out, not me.
00:49:02Who told you you could talk to me like that?
00:49:05Me! Problem?
00:49:08I'm doing this for you, James.
00:49:11Just wait until Robert finds out.
00:49:14You're going to be in big trouble.
00:49:17It's okay, Bunny.
00:49:19You're okay.
00:49:20I'm right here.
00:49:22I want to kiss you.
00:49:33James, I really like you.
00:49:36I want you.
00:49:41Alice, you know we can't do this.
00:49:45We're step siblings.
00:49:47I don't care.
00:49:50I can't just lie to myself anymore.
00:49:54I don't care if it's wrong, if it doesn't work out.
00:49:59We can't.
00:50:03Alice, if my dad finds out, he'll kick you out.
00:50:08And I don't want that.
00:50:10I can't.
00:50:11I can't.
00:50:13They just found out we're step siblings at school.
00:50:16So we just...
00:50:19We just gotta be brother and sister.
00:50:21James, you don't understand.
00:50:24I know you like me back.
00:50:30It doesn't matter, Bunny.
00:50:32I can't kiss someone who's my step sister.
00:50:35Maybe I can kiss you.
00:50:37Fine.
00:50:38If you're not gonna kiss me, then I'm gonna find somebody who will.
00:50:48Give me a shot of something strong.
00:51:00One more.
00:51:09Next one's on me, shawty.
00:51:13I'm Tony.
00:51:15I'm at the state's meeting.
00:51:19Do you refuse to learn?
00:51:21Stop taking people's drinks.
00:51:23Why does it matter?
00:51:25We're not together, stepbrother.
00:51:39Is that your ex over there?
00:51:41He keeps glaring at me.
00:51:43Don't worry about him.
00:51:45He's just my stepbrother.
00:51:47Yeah.
00:51:58Right here.
00:52:00Let's go.
00:52:09Asshole.
00:52:11Let's see who breaks first.
00:52:17Yo, don't fucking touch her, man.
00:52:18Hey, what the fuck, man?
00:52:20She's just her stepbrother.
00:52:21Let her do her thing.
00:52:22Yo, don't touch her.
00:52:23Hey, I talked to her first.
00:52:25That's my girl.
00:52:39Mom.
00:52:43Alright.
00:52:44Let's play big.
00:52:45No, James.
00:52:46I don't want you to make things worse.
00:52:57Here.
00:52:59Take the money.
00:53:01And leave.
00:53:09Mr. Hawthorne, can I help you with anything?
00:53:12Yes.
00:53:13Ethan, I need a favor.
00:53:15Yes.
00:53:17I need this place cleared up.
00:53:21I knew it.
00:53:23I knew you liked me.
00:53:27Can I tell you a secret?
00:53:29So, when Dad died, Mom got really bad.
00:53:34And I thought that no one could ever
00:53:36And I thought that no one
00:53:39Like, literally, no one would ever care about me.
00:53:44And then, you showed up.
00:53:48And you do.
00:53:50Oh.
00:53:52You had your mom, and I had my dad.
00:53:55We're family now.
00:53:57We all care about you.
00:53:59Look at me.
00:54:02Do you really
00:54:03Just see me as your stepsister?
00:54:08If I kiss you, will you go home?
00:54:12Only if you mean it.
00:54:24I can't believe it.
00:54:26I fell for the fucking bad boy.
00:54:28The fucking bad boy.
00:54:32Not a chance.
00:54:34Not until you're legal.
00:54:36Why does it matter?
00:54:38It's just a few days.
00:54:40What?
00:54:42Why don't you play with this in the meantime?
00:54:44I hate you.
00:54:46I'm giving you extra worksheets because of that.
00:54:49Worth it.
00:54:54Congratulations.
00:54:56You've done it.
00:54:58I close my eyes, and all I see is differential equations.
00:55:04It's your birthday.
00:55:06You should be partying.
00:55:08I'll set something up.
00:55:10No.
00:55:12James, don't.
00:55:14To be honest, I don't really feel like doing anything.
00:55:18It's the first time without dad, so
00:55:22I didn't really want to think about it.
00:55:25You know.
00:55:26All right.
00:55:28No party.
00:55:30But I can still get you a gift, right?
00:55:32I had something in mind.
00:55:34Uh-uh.
00:55:36Not that.
00:55:38But anything else.
00:55:45You slept with Kim?
00:55:48Yeah.
00:55:50I did a bunch of shit I regret when my mom and dad first broke up.
00:55:53Why can't you sleep with me?
00:55:54Alice.
00:55:56I don't want to go back to being that person I was back then.
00:55:59I want to treat you right.
00:56:01Anyways.
00:56:03We were talking about presents.
00:56:06Screw presents.
00:56:13I just want you tonight.
00:56:25No.
00:56:31No.
00:56:32Don't touch her.
00:56:35I get it.
00:56:37You want to get rid of me.
00:56:39I worked so hard to get you here.
00:56:43And now you two are teaming up to kick me out of the family I built.
00:56:50Miss Bell.
00:56:52It's my fault.
00:56:53Don't get between me and my daughter.
00:56:57Unless you want me to tell Robert.
00:56:59And?
00:57:01I'll tell him how you treat Alice behind his back.
00:57:04Like father, like dumb slut daughter.
00:57:09All you have in that thick scar of yours is love and romance.
00:57:16And look what it buys you.
00:57:18Nothing.
00:57:20No money.
00:57:21No prestige.
00:57:23Nothing.
00:57:25Don't talk about dad.
00:57:27He did nothing wrong.
00:57:29He did nothing wrong.
00:57:32Did nothing wrong?
00:57:34You have no idea what it was like being married to that man.
00:57:39I was rich.
00:57:42We lost everything.
00:57:45And I had to marry that man.
00:57:48You came along.
00:57:51And I'm stuck.
00:57:53Constant reminder of all of my failures.
00:57:59I hate you.
00:58:02No, no, mom.
00:58:04Mom, you don't actually mean that, right?
00:58:06Shut up.
00:58:08I'm late for an appointment.
00:58:09Mom.
00:58:19Mom, I'm sorry.
00:58:21Mom.
00:58:24Mom, I'm sorry.
00:58:26Why?
00:58:30Mom, I can't believe it.
00:58:32I can't believe he's dead.
00:58:35Left you here with me.
00:58:36Just my fucking luck.
00:58:46Alice!
00:58:48Alice!
00:58:51James.
00:58:56James.
00:59:01Alice, Alice.
00:59:03Are you okay?
00:59:04Are you okay?
00:59:07Look, I thought I lost you.
00:59:11James, I can't do it.
00:59:13I can't be your sister.
00:59:15I love you.
00:59:21I love you too, Alice.
00:59:26James, I can't believe my mom said that.
00:59:29She actually hates me.
00:59:32I'll get her back right now.
00:59:35Listen, I don't care what you have tonight,
00:59:38but Alice needs you back right now.
00:59:42James, I feel awful.
00:59:48Arms up.
00:59:50Let's get that fever down, Alice.
01:00:01Morning.
01:00:03Morning.
01:00:25Come on.
01:00:27Let's get you to bed.
01:00:29What about my birthday present?
01:00:31I thought you didn't want anything.
01:00:35I want you.
01:00:50Feeling any better?
01:00:53Almost.
01:00:58But I still want you.
01:01:18Happy birthday, bud.
01:01:28Happy birthday, James.
01:01:58Mom?
01:02:23Mom?
01:02:28Mom?
01:02:52Sleep tight, buddy.
01:02:59You should have told us sooner.
01:03:01That's so cool.
01:03:03I wish I could live with James.
01:03:06I don't know, Anna.
01:03:08I don't really care.
01:03:10I just didn't want...
01:03:12Um...
01:03:14I got you something.
01:03:16For ruining your uniform last time.
01:03:24Okay, but can you please, like,
01:03:26talk to James or something?
01:03:28He isn't responding to my texts.
01:03:30Like, at all.
01:03:35Kim Samuels?
01:03:37I thought I told you I never wanted to see you again.
01:03:39And you did much more than ruin her uniform.
01:03:42Do you need a demonstration?
01:03:44Damn.
01:03:46I'm sorry.
01:03:48I'm really sorry.
01:03:52Well, what did she get you?
01:03:58What?
01:04:25Hey, are you coming to school today?
01:04:28Yeah.
01:04:42It's both of you, Alice?
01:04:44I'm so glad.
01:04:48Oh, my God.
01:04:49I'm done for.
01:04:51Let me reintroduce you to everyone.
01:04:54Alice Bell,
01:04:56the stepdaughter of the richest family,
01:04:59is hiding a big secret.
01:05:02Kim will expose my secret.
01:05:04Everyone will know I'm in love with my stepbrother.
01:05:07The man she's been hooking up with is...
01:05:10The guy she's been seducing is...
01:05:17Alice Hawthorne seduced James Hawthorne.
01:05:20Her stepbrother.
01:05:22Disgusting, shameless rat.
01:05:25How filthy.
01:05:26That's just how poor people are.
01:05:28Can't wait to latch on to anything good.
01:05:30A bitch is a bitch.
01:05:33So, girls,
01:05:35should we teach her a lesson?
01:05:37What are you going to do?
01:05:39Slut.
01:05:41Slut.
01:05:42Slut.
01:05:43Slut.
01:05:44Slut.
01:05:45Slut.
01:05:46Slut.
01:05:47Slut.
01:05:48Slut.
01:05:49Slut.
01:05:50Slut.
01:05:51Slut.
01:05:52Slut.
01:05:53Slut.
01:05:54Slut.
01:05:55Slut.
01:05:57Slut.
01:06:01Slut.
01:06:02Slut.
01:06:03Slut.
01:06:08Don't you think she's still missing something?
01:06:19If I admit it, not only will I be done for, but James will be too.
01:06:39You're hilarious!
01:06:40Okay, the person in that video wasn't even James!
01:06:45You say it's not true?
01:06:47A born slut like you can only disgrace this school's reputation.
01:06:50Drop out and get out of here right now!
01:06:52You have no right to order me around!
01:06:55Oh, really?
01:06:58Strip her and let her crawl out of this school naked, back to where she belongs.
01:07:03Don't touch me! Stop! Don't touch me!
01:07:07Stop! Stop!
01:07:10James is mine!
01:07:17Stop! You have to get off! You have to get off of me!
01:07:22Stop it! Everybody cut it out!
01:07:24Miss King, we're doing this for the sake of St. Mary's reputation.
01:07:31Alice, this video? That's serious.
01:07:36You need to tell me. Is that James?
01:07:45Who exactly is that person? If you don't tell us, you'll be expelled.
01:07:51If I tell the truth, James will be toast!
01:07:57It's me.
01:08:06I'm sorry I'm late.
01:08:28You messed with my girlfriend? That's what you deserve.
01:08:35James, be honest. Did your stepsister, Alice, seduce you?
01:08:39You really want to know? I'm the one who seduced my stepsister.
01:08:44I'm the one who seduced my stepsister.
01:08:48James, don't. He's ruining you.
01:08:52I'm not afraid.
01:09:03Miss King, Kim has violated Alice's and my privacy.
01:09:08She's a delusional, creepy stalker.
01:09:12Who's secretly filming and posting private moments without my permission.
01:09:16Expel her.
01:09:19It wasn't me, I swear.
01:09:22Kim, I never liked you.
01:09:25And I sent the FBI all the videos of you bullying everyone.
01:09:37Are you out of your mind? How dare you mess with the Hawthorns?
01:09:41Do you have any idea how much money you've cost us?
01:09:43Starting today, all your bank cards are frozen.
01:09:46Now you are kicked out of our family.
01:09:48But dad, where will I sleep?
01:09:50In the doghouse. And as for food, you can only eat dog food.
01:10:02If your dad finds out you've been messing around with your stepsister, you're done too.
01:10:08Then stick a fork in me. Because I'm done. Done caring enough.
01:10:19Hello, Mrs. Hawthorne speaking.
01:10:21Sorry to bother you, Mrs. Hawthorne. This is Ruby, Alice and James' homeroom teacher.
01:10:25I need to talk to you about something. It's urgent.
01:10:28What is it? Has something happened?
01:10:31Alice and James, they were caught kissing each other at school.
01:10:35What?
01:10:37They were caught kissing each other at school.
01:10:40What?
01:10:42They were caught kissing each other at school.
01:10:46You better not be doing what I think you're doing.
01:10:54What do you think you're doing?
01:10:58Oh my, I can explain.
01:11:02I'm sorry.
01:11:04I'm sorry.
01:11:06I'm sorry.
01:11:08I'm sorry.
01:11:10I'm sorry.
01:11:12I'm sorry.
01:11:15Wait, Mrs. Hawthorne.
01:11:17Shut up. I'm dealing with her first.
01:11:22Mom, please. You don't get it.
01:11:24What exactly am I not getting?
01:11:28That it's incest? That it's gross?
01:11:32You said you'd stop, liar.
01:11:35Let me remind you, you're sleeping with your stepbrother.
01:11:39I love him, Mom. I really do.
01:11:42It's not my fault you married his dad.
01:11:45Shut up, you disgusting whore.
01:11:48You better break up with James.
01:11:50I'm kicking you out.
01:11:54Don't tell her what to do.
01:11:58James.
01:12:01Think about your future for a second.
01:12:04How do you think Robert's going to react when he finds out?
01:12:08He's going to disown you.
01:12:11Aren't you afraid he'll write you off of his will?
01:12:14No, actually. But funny you say that.
01:12:17That's what you're scared of, isn't it?
01:12:19You're scared he's going to turn on you.
01:12:21You never cared about Alice, did you, Eva?
01:12:24Alice, do you still care about your dad?
01:12:29Do you still want to disappoint him in heaven?
01:12:34My dad would never be ashamed of me staying true to my heart.
01:12:39He taught me to be honest.
01:12:41He taught me what it means to really love someone.
01:12:46God, what you call love, Mom,
01:12:51it is not real.
01:12:54Right?
01:12:58Guess you're okay with James getting bullied for it.
01:13:03With James getting abandoned by everyone who loves him.
01:13:10You know something about that, don't you?
01:13:14I don't care. I don't care anymore.
01:13:18I love you, Alice, and I'm staying.
01:13:22I'm not letting anything get in the way of us.
01:13:25Not my family or anyone else.
01:13:30It is my choice, Mom.
01:13:34I am ready to face the consequences.
01:13:39No.
01:13:41I can't let them get away.
01:13:44I'll be ruined.
01:13:54Hi, Mrs. Keene.
01:13:57It's Alice's mom.
01:14:00Listen, I would like to arrange something.
01:14:06Privately.
01:14:08I'm so sorry, James.
01:14:12This can't be right.
01:14:17Sorry, that could be all for a second.
01:14:21Mrs. Keene, this can't be right.
01:14:24We talked after every test.
01:14:26We went over all the problems.
01:14:28He definitely did better than an F.
01:14:30Can you double check?
01:14:33The school seal isn't on there.
01:14:36Alice.
01:14:39I understand that you're very concerned about James.
01:14:43But he really did get an F.
01:14:46There's nothing we can do about that.
01:14:58Mrs. Hawthorne?
01:15:00I just showed them like you asked.
01:15:06I'm going to email the fake report card to Mr. Hawthorne now.
01:15:20Dad, I tried my best.
01:15:22I worked hard.
01:15:24Just give me another chance.
01:15:26It's not that, James.
01:15:29I actually thought you could change.
01:15:31You can't change, can you?
01:15:33Why do you only care about me when it comes to my grades?
01:15:36You don't actually care about me.
01:15:38I'm just some ornament to you.
01:15:40It's not that you're just immature.
01:15:41You act like a child.
01:15:42You're like your mother.
01:15:44You can't change, can you?
01:15:47Pack your things.
01:15:49I'm going to have the drivers take you to the airport.
01:15:52I think your mother will be happy with you.
01:15:57You don't believe me.
01:15:59You never believed in me.
01:16:01Not even once.
01:16:07Wait!
01:16:08Don't make him leave!
01:16:16Mrs. Hawthorne?
01:16:17I just showed them like you asked.
01:16:19I'm going to email the fake report card to Mr. Hawthorne now.
01:16:22I heard everything.
01:16:25Mom, you bribed Ms. Keene to fake James' grades?
01:16:30Oh, and I spoke to the principal.
01:16:32He should have gotten an A based on his test scores.
01:16:35Alice!
01:16:36Stop!
01:16:37What are you doing?
01:16:39Alice!
01:16:41Do you want to go back to the way it was before?
01:16:45I had nothing!
01:16:47Nothing!
01:16:49That brutal way of life killed me.
01:16:54And now it's this!
01:16:56Now it's this!
01:16:57I was happy!
01:16:59Look!
01:17:01We didn't have much, but I was happy just being loved!
01:17:07Eva, did you really do this?
01:17:10I mean, did you ever really love me?
01:17:14No.
01:17:16Want to destroy my son?
01:17:18And thereby destroy me?
01:17:20I loved you, Robert.
01:17:22It's true.
01:17:24I was just doing what I thought was right.
01:17:30I can't even look at you anymore.
01:17:32Get out of here.
01:17:34Please, you can't do this.
01:17:40Mom?
01:17:42This is all your fault!
01:17:45I bore your father and ruined my life!
01:17:49I will finally be rid of you!
01:17:52No!
01:17:54Take her away.
01:18:00Well, it looks like you got your wish, Mom.
01:18:03You wanted to get rid of me, and I never want to see you again.
01:18:14You're not taking her.
01:18:18You two are closer than I thought.
01:18:20Is there something you haven't told me, James?
01:18:29Dad?
01:18:31I'm in love with Alice.
01:18:33I'm sorry, Mr. Hawthorne, but I'm in love with James, too.
01:18:39Alice, I hate for things to turn out this way.
01:18:42I really did want you to be a part of our family.
01:18:45I know, and I really appreciate it, but...
01:18:49James and I will figure something out.
01:18:51I promise.
01:18:53I'm so sorry, Mr. Hawthorne.
01:18:55I don't need an apology.
01:18:58I just need you to make a choice.
01:19:01Are you going to stay with James or leave him?
01:19:07I'm choosing James.
01:19:09He's too important for me to lose, and...
01:19:13being with him is the greatest thing in the world.
01:19:18Dad, I'm telling you.
01:19:20No matter what you do, we're not going to break up.
01:19:25Well, then...
01:19:28You can stay together, but one of you has to leave.
01:19:32Either James, Alice, or you.
01:19:38The Hawthorne name will need some time to repair the damage that's been done.
01:19:44I'll go.
01:19:45No, you can't.
01:19:47I'll go, Dad.
01:19:49But I have a proposal for you.
01:19:51In exchange, you have to take care of Alice through college.
01:19:58James, have I not taught you anything about a successful negotiation?
01:20:01You have to have a wager.
01:20:03What's the wager?
01:20:07I'm going to get into an Ivy League school in one year.
01:20:10And when I do, you have to let us be together.
01:20:14I can't believe it.
01:20:15I spent so long trying to get him to straighten up,
01:20:18and you come in here and do it in one month.
01:20:23All right, James. One year.
01:20:25I'm giving you one year to make it into an Ivy League school.
01:20:28I'm presuming the same one as her.
01:20:31And if you don't, I'll have my own plans for you.
01:20:35Deal?
01:20:38James, I don't need any of this.
01:20:40I just want you...
01:20:42Alice, just trust me, okay?
01:20:45I'm only going to be gone a year.
01:20:47It'll be over before you know it.
01:20:49Promise me you'll come back.
01:20:51I promise.
01:21:03Promise me you'll come back.
01:21:07I promise.
01:21:13Here.
01:21:17The Eternal Rose.
01:21:20Does that mean...
01:21:22No.
01:21:38Dang, Alice. Really? None of them?
01:21:40All right, let's see. You rejected the quarterback. That was yesterday.
01:21:43And you said no to that cute music kid, too.
01:21:45You have to give someone a chance.
01:21:47I'm waiting for someone special.
01:21:51Who?
01:21:52Okay, don't tell him.
01:21:53Alice, it's that new kid they've been talking about.
01:21:55He's literally hotter than every other freshman here.
01:21:58Oh, my God. I hope he's single.
01:22:01There he is.
01:22:05James?
01:22:10Told you I'd be back, honey.
