00:00:00Yes!
00:00:09Your deployment's tomorrow.
00:00:18I'm still worried.
00:00:20Don't worry.
00:00:21I'm going to be back.
00:00:22I'm going to be safe and sound.
00:00:23The first thing we're going to do is get married.
00:00:25I'll be waiting.
00:00:30Oh, my God.
00:00:45I miss you so much.
00:00:50Oh, my God.
00:00:51It's so good to see you.
00:00:53So good to see you.
00:00:54I miss you a lot.
00:00:56Can't wait to go home together.
00:00:58Yeah.
00:01:00I'm so sorry to interrupt, but have you seen Ace?
00:01:03He was supposed to come out with you.
00:01:05Ace?
00:01:06He's been back for a month.
00:01:07He didn't tell you?
00:01:09What?
00:01:12Call him up.
00:01:13You'll see.
00:01:15Let's go.
00:01:18Ace came back a month ago, but he hasn't been answering my calls.
00:01:28Ace, open up!
00:01:29I know you're in there!
00:01:31Ace!
00:01:32Ace!
00:01:51Ace, what are you doing?
00:01:53Who is that woman?
00:01:58Ace, open the door!
00:02:01Who the hell are you and what do you want with Ace?
00:02:04I need to see him.
00:02:11Ace!
00:02:13Explain!
00:02:14Look, I don't know what you want me to say.
00:02:17It's over.
00:02:19I got myself a new girl.
00:02:21It's time for you to move on.
00:02:23What do you mean it's over?
00:02:25I waited for you for three years.
00:02:27You said we were going to get married when you came back,
00:02:29and now you're just telling me to move on?
00:02:32I was just fooling around that whole time.
00:02:34I didn't mean any of it.
00:02:36Besides, I was never in love with you like I am with Sally.
00:02:38She's the one, all right?
00:02:40It's not you.
00:02:41I don't believe you.
00:02:43No, I demand that you come out here and talk to me face to face.
00:02:46You owe me that at least.
00:02:47That's the problem with you, isn't it?
00:02:49You're always demanding this, demanding that.
00:02:51If Elena's not happy, nobody's happy.
00:02:53You're a spoiled, rich heiress,
00:02:55and no guy wants a woman like that.
00:02:57Can't you understand that?
00:02:59Just fuck off.
00:03:02My dad was right about you.
00:03:05I never should have fallen for you.
00:03:07I hate you, Ace Atkins!
00:03:19Did you really have to be so cruel?
00:03:21I mean, I feel like you probably could have told her the truth.
00:03:23She's not going to leave you.
00:03:33That's what I'm afraid of.
00:03:36I love her.
00:03:39She's got to let her go.
00:03:44Let's get you into that wheelchair.
00:03:49Let's go.
00:04:06I want you to end things with Elena.
00:04:08The engagement is off.
00:04:10Take this money as your compensation.
00:04:13Mr. Pearson, I obviously always have had a lot of respect for you.
00:04:18Quite frankly, I have no interest in your money.
00:04:21All I need is a chance to talk to Elena.
00:04:23That's all I'm asking for.
00:04:24What can you possibly do for Elena
00:04:26when you can't even stand on your own?
00:04:28All you'll do is break her heart.
00:04:30I'll never let my little girl marry a one-legged cripple.
00:04:34If you really love her, leave her alone.
00:04:42Wow.
00:05:03Thanks for doing this, Sally.
00:05:05I really appreciate it.
00:05:07We'll start physical therapy in ten minutes.
00:05:10I'll go get the equipment.
00:05:15I love you, Elena.
00:05:17Forget about me.
00:05:19You'll find happiness again.
00:05:26Early this morning, Carter Pearson,
00:05:28CEO of Pearson Healthcare,
00:05:30was fatally shot by a gunman on Fifth Avenue.
00:05:33Police suspect the attack may be related
00:05:35to the wave of insurance policy changes
00:05:37that Pearson Healthcare is preparing to implement.
00:05:39For now, the gunman remains at large,
00:05:41while Elena Pearson, the victim's daughter,
00:05:43is set to take over as CEO.
00:05:56Clean that up.
00:06:04Good morning, gentlemen.
00:06:06I've called this emergency meeting
00:06:07to make an important announcement.
00:06:09I will be continuing to advance healthcare reform.
00:06:13The goal is to ensure all patients
00:06:16receive fair insurance coverage
00:06:19and to make healthcare more affordable for everyone.
00:06:22My plan...
00:06:27What the hell is your shit plan?
00:06:29You're giving away our profits to these poor people.
00:06:31I reject it.
00:06:33Uncle Houston, poor healthcare policies
00:06:35have led to my father's death.
00:06:37My plans are implemented to correct these wrongs.
00:06:40No matter what you say,
00:06:42I will never, ever change my mind.
00:06:45Really?
00:06:47You think you can control the entire group?
00:06:50I'm not the only one against this bullshit plan.
00:07:05Damn it!
00:07:36Looks like you all need some more training still.
00:07:39Got a long way to go.
00:07:43Will the healthcare heiress be able to bring about meaningful reform,
00:07:46or will she be next on the assassins' list?
00:07:49Hey, Josh, can you bring me my headset and my jacket, please?
00:07:52Ace, you're the CEO of the company.
00:07:55You could totally assign someone else to handle Elena's case.
00:07:58So you heard the news, too, huh?
00:08:00You think anyone's going to protect her like I would, Josh?
00:08:03I'll handle it.
00:08:13Elena, today you're going to follow my plan
00:08:17to increase healthcare prices.
00:08:19We will vote to dismiss you as CEO.
00:08:22Simple as that.
00:08:24Without the board's approval, you have no right to dismiss me.
00:08:34Honey.
00:08:39Have you lost your mind? Forcing a signature is illegal.
00:08:42No one here will testify against me.
00:08:44Just sign the damn paper.
00:08:47Are you all going to let him do this?
00:08:49Elena, you're asking us to throw our money away on those little lice.
00:08:52Don't blame us because we're not picking your side.
00:08:55Let's go.
00:09:01Let's go, Ace. Come on.
00:09:17Get your hands off of her.
00:09:19No way. That voice.
00:09:21It can't be him.
00:09:25It can't be him.
00:09:36Long time no see, Ms. Pearson.
00:09:41I'm your personal bodyguard.
00:09:43It's been three years.
00:09:45I've missed you, Elena.
00:09:47You're my what?
00:09:48Jesus, Elena.
00:09:50Did you do something about your bodyguard?
00:09:52You stupid or something?
00:09:56You insult my boss again.
00:09:58You're going to be the one that needs some fucking health care.
00:10:00Okay, everyone out of my boardroom.
00:10:07Leave.
00:10:09Or you're fired. I don't give a shit you're my uncle.
00:10:11There's only one way to deal with people like you, Elena.
00:10:14And that's to get rid of them.
00:10:16Just like I got rid of your father.
00:10:22What are you doing here?
00:10:25No one told me anything about needing a personal bodyguard.
00:10:29Ms. Pearson.
00:10:31Mr. Atkins.
00:10:33I'm Oliver, the family butler.
00:10:35Miss.
00:10:37Mr. Ace Atkins is the most sought-after bodyguard in America.
00:10:42Now, as per the contract,
00:10:44he will provide you protection 24 hours
00:10:49to ensure your safety at all times.
00:10:52No.
00:10:55I won't have him as my bodyguard.
00:10:58I won't have him as my bodyguard.
00:11:00Oliver, you can get me literally anyone else.
00:11:03Anyone but him.
00:11:05Ma'am, I urge you to rethink this.
00:11:08With him around, your safety is practically guaranteed.
00:11:13Oliver, can you leave us alone for a minute?
00:11:15I need to talk to him.
00:11:17Yes, ma'am.
00:11:20Ace, what are you doing here?
00:11:22I was just making sure that you were safe.
00:11:24Healthcare CEOs are on high alert right now,
00:11:27and, well, I was worried about you.
00:11:31We broke up three years ago.
00:11:33You cheated on me.
00:11:34You don't have the right to be worried about me.
00:11:36The last thing I need right now is you being my bodyguard.
00:11:41The contract's already signed,
00:11:43so I'll just cover the termination fee.
00:11:45Now go.
00:11:46I don't really understand why you're refusing all of this help.
00:11:52Are you afraid you're going to fall in love with me again?
00:11:57Are you afraid you're going to fall in love with me again?
00:12:00Why is my heart beating so fast?
00:12:02You're delusional.
00:12:04Elena.
00:12:09The rational thing to do is to think of your safety right now,
00:12:12so just let me protect you.
00:12:15Only an idiot would entrust their safety
00:12:17to someone who cheated on them while they were engaged.
00:12:20Let go.
00:12:25Take me home.
00:12:30Elena.
00:12:35Asshole.
00:12:36You broke my heart,
00:12:37and now you come back into my life like it's nothing?
00:12:45That's odd.
00:12:47I turned off the lights when I left the house, right?
00:12:56Someone broke in.
00:12:58The killer?
00:13:15What are you doing?
00:13:21Why so surprised, princess?
00:13:23Didn't you know you were going to be next?
00:13:28No.
00:13:29I don't want to die, please.
00:13:30Someone help me.
00:13:45Ugh!
00:14:11Please, oh God.
00:14:15I thought I was going to die.
00:14:17No, you're safe.
00:14:19You're hurt. Are you all right?
00:14:21You saved me.
00:14:24I...
00:14:28You're bleeding.
00:14:32He might be an asshole, but damn,
00:14:34he's even hotter than he used to be.
00:14:37He's still got that same glow.
00:14:39God, I missed her.
00:14:42Do you remember the last time we, uh,
00:14:46had a bathroom?
00:14:59He's hotter.
00:15:01He's hotter.
00:15:08That guy got you in the leg too, right?
00:15:10I should wrap that up.
00:15:12No, no, no.
00:15:14He tried to stab me in the leg and he missed.
00:15:17It's fine.
00:15:18I saw the knife go straight into your leg.
00:15:24Is there something wrong?
00:15:26No, it's fine.
00:15:40Oh!
00:15:56Oh!
00:16:00Oh! My...
00:16:04Am I interrupting?
00:16:06No, uh, no.
00:16:08I, uh, cut himself,
00:16:11and I was just helping him dress the wound.
00:16:16Mr. Atkins, I, um, brought your luggage up here.
00:16:20Wait, he's not staying with me.
00:16:23Yes, Miss Pearson, of course.
00:16:26That's exactly what a personal bodyguard does.
00:16:30The contract clearly states
00:16:32that Mr. Atkins must remain by your side 24-7
00:16:37to ensure your safety.
00:16:40Oliver, it's not just about the contract.
00:16:42I-I can't...
00:16:44I can't let my ex-boyfriend live with me as my bodyguard.
00:16:49You must understand.
00:16:51You might very well be the next target.
00:16:55If you fail to understand this,
00:16:58then I shall have to tender my letter of resignation.
00:17:02I'll be fine.
00:17:04Oliver, you win.
00:17:06Brilliant.
00:17:08Mr. Atkins, from here on out,
00:17:11Miss Pearson's safety is in your hands.
00:17:19I would take a bullet for her.
00:17:33You're the first door on the left.
00:17:35You can stay there.
00:17:37Elena, can...
00:17:38Ace, let's just address the elephant in the room.
00:17:41We broke up three years ago, and that's that.
00:17:44Now, if you're gonna be staying here,
00:17:46we need to establish some boundaries.
00:17:49So here's how it's gonna go.
00:17:51You are gonna do your job as my bodyguard,
00:17:53and I'm gonna live my life.
00:17:55Nothing else.
00:17:57Is that clear?
00:17:59Crystal, I'll go unpack my stuff.
00:18:05Okay.
00:18:16Is this his wallet?
00:18:28You said you never left me,
00:18:30so why do you have a photo of me inside your wallet?
00:18:36I checked the house. It's all clear.
00:18:39Safe to sleep.
00:18:41Great. Thanks.
00:18:43I'm gonna go to bed now.
00:19:05Weed.
00:19:12Shit.
00:19:21Sorry.
00:19:23I thought you were in danger.
00:19:25Just hand me that towel.
00:19:36It's not like I haven't seen you before.
00:19:45Be professional.
00:19:47I'm still your boss, remember?
00:19:54Yes, ma'am.
00:20:05I love you.
00:20:21You've changed a lot, Elena.
00:20:23And after all these years,
00:20:25I still feel the same about you.
00:20:36Hey.
00:20:43Hey, is there some scar cream for you?
00:20:45Yeah, just hold on a second. One minute.
00:20:52Hey, what's up?
00:20:54Hey.
00:20:56Just have something for the scars.
00:21:00I can put it on.
00:21:06I'm surprised that you still, uh...
00:21:11show this much care for me still.
00:21:14Get over yourself.
00:21:16I'm just helping you because I'm nice.
00:21:19Why not calm yourself?
00:21:21He's just a stupid ex with a hot body.
00:21:24Okay.
00:21:28I'm done.
00:21:30Okay.
00:21:34I'm done.
00:21:42Okay, what is with you and this blanket?
00:21:45I saw that guy get you in the leg.
00:21:48My leg is fine.
00:21:50I'm just sitting.
00:21:52It's how I sit.
00:21:54I call BS. Let me see it.
00:22:01What if I'm, um...
00:22:03hiding something under there?
00:22:05Maybe I'm hiding a boner.
00:22:08Let's see it.
00:22:16You're not my boyfriend anymore.
00:22:18You're my bodyguard.
00:22:20We should keep things professional.
00:22:22You're not my boyfriend anymore.
00:22:24You're my bodyguard.
00:22:26We should keep things professional.
00:22:28We should keep things professional.
00:22:32Good night, boys.
00:22:36Good night.
00:22:40You're right, Elena.
00:22:42I'm just your bodyguard.
00:22:53Elena.
00:22:55I want you to put this on. It's lightweight.
00:22:57You won't even feel it.
00:22:59I'm not wearing that.
00:23:01You can either do it yourself or I could strip your clothes off for you.
00:23:04And I could do it.
00:23:06And if you ask me, I prefer the latter.
00:23:08Look, I can do it myself.
00:23:16May I?
00:23:18Got it.
00:23:28Why does he have to be so damn attractive?
00:23:31Too sweet.
00:23:35Okay, uh, I have to go.
00:23:37I'm late for work.
00:23:39Yes, ma'am.
00:23:45I'm assuming the assassination didn't go as planned?
00:23:48No, sir.
00:23:50No, sir.
00:23:52No, sir.
00:23:54No, sir.
00:23:56It wasn't as planned?
00:23:58An idiot calls himself a hitman, he can't handle a defenseless woman.
00:24:02Chad, I'm leaving this to you.
00:24:05Seduce Elena, get her under your thumb, and Pearson Healthcare is ours.
00:24:09Consider it done.
00:24:17Jesus, Chad, how many times have I told you to knock?
00:24:20What are you on?
00:24:22You owe me dinner, remember?
00:24:24I remember.
00:24:26But I'm swamped with work and planning a funeral, so can we take a rain check?
00:24:30Let me handle the funeral preparations.
00:24:33You've been working too hard since your father passed.
00:24:35This is how people get burned down.
00:24:37You need to take some time off to relax.
00:24:47Yeah.
00:24:49You know what, let's do dinner.
00:24:55Great.
00:25:08Sir, this is a table for two.
00:25:14Why don't you go sit over there?
00:25:24Yeah.
00:25:38I'm Miss Pearson's bodyguard.
00:25:40I've got to keep a tight perimeter around her at all times, but thanks for checking in.
00:25:45Well, don't let me interrupt.
00:25:47You guys haven't ordered yet.
00:25:49Go ahead.
00:25:5582 Lafayette.
00:25:57Your favorite.
00:25:59I found a collector who was willing to sell it to me.
00:26:02Here, have a taste.
00:26:07Hey, I find it kind of rude, Chad.
00:26:09I'm sorry.
00:26:12Hey, I find it kind of rude, Chad, that you're not offering me a drink.
00:26:15I am attending this dinner with the two of you, aren't I?
00:26:18Well, Mr. Atkins.
00:26:21Seeing that you're Elena's bodyguard, I didn't find it appropriate for you to be drinking on the job now.
00:26:28My apologies.
00:26:31Elena.
00:26:35I know how tough it's been for you.
00:26:37And I want you to know that I'm here for you.
00:26:41Always.
00:26:43And that my heart belongs to you.
00:26:48Sorry, Chad.
00:26:50I'm not really in the mood to talk about all that.
00:26:54Can we eat?
00:26:55I'm starving.
00:26:57Yeah.
00:26:58Sam.
00:27:00The mango salad.
00:27:05Oh, hey, Sam.
00:27:06Sorry about that.
00:27:08She actually doesn't like mangoes.
00:27:10Are you bringing out another play without him?
00:27:12He still remembers?
00:27:14I'll see what I can do about that.
00:27:19Wait, didn't you two just meet?
00:27:21How would he know that you don't like mangoes?
00:27:25How would he know that you don't like mangoes?
00:27:29Well, we actually go way back.
00:27:31And I know a hell of a lot more about her than just her preference for mangoes.
00:27:34He's my bodyguard.
00:27:36Of course, Oliver told him everything that he needed to know.
00:27:39I'll just pick her on the way it goes.
00:27:45Okay, something's definitely going on with Elena and her bodyguard.
00:28:10What was that tonight?
00:28:12If I didn't know any better, I think you might be jealous of Chad.
00:28:16Maybe you're just seeing things the way you want to see them.
00:28:20You ever think about that?
00:28:21How could I forget?
00:28:23Right, you shattered my heart.
00:28:27Save it.
00:28:29Just go home.
00:28:30You have funeral preparations to make anyway.
00:28:33I'm sorry, Elena.
00:28:35I was just trying to give you a better life.
00:28:38I didn't think it would hurt you this much.
00:28:44Elena!
00:28:46Elena?
00:28:47Chad!
00:28:48You're back!
00:28:57I'm so sorry.
00:28:58I didn't mean to hurt you.
00:29:00No.
00:29:09Dad!
00:29:12What's going on?
00:29:13Please.
00:29:15It's fine. I'm here, okay?
00:29:17You're safe.
00:29:19I had a dream about my dad.
00:29:23One second he was smiling at me, and then the next...
00:29:30Dad.
00:29:35I just doubt myself sometimes.
00:29:39Do you really think that I can make a change in this industry?
00:29:50You're the strongest woman I've ever known.
00:29:53And I think that you can do anything that you set your heart on.
00:29:57Besides, I'm going to be right here the whole time supporting you.
00:30:00Protecting you.
00:30:03Protecting me?
00:30:07Do you really think I can trust you after what you've put me through?
00:30:12Look.
00:30:13A relationship that is in the past.
00:30:17But I wouldn't protect you with my life.
00:30:20I'd die for you.
00:30:22I need you to understand that.
00:30:25So you would die for me, but you won't love me.
00:30:35So you would die for me, but you won't love me.
00:30:55No.
00:31:00Stay with me.
00:31:04I thought you wanted to keep things professional.
00:31:08You're my bodyguard.
00:31:11And I'm scared.
00:31:15Stay with me.
00:31:16So I can feel safe.
00:31:25Come on.
00:31:35If only I could stay by your side like this forever.
00:31:44What are we doing here?
00:31:45I'm going to teach you some basic self-defense techniques.
00:31:48You know, just in case.
00:31:50Always got to be prepared.
00:31:52What I mean is, in case I die first and you're still in danger, you can...
00:31:58Fight your way out.
00:32:01First case scenario.
00:32:08What would you do if someone had you against a wall like this?
00:32:14Um...
00:32:18No, all the pushing in the world won't do anything.
00:32:22Try putting your hand on a more vulnerable place.
00:32:26That one there.
00:32:29And that one there.
00:32:31Push as hard as you can.
00:32:37Right. Nice.
00:32:42All right. Second scenario.
00:32:46What if somebody...
00:32:49Had you like this?
00:32:52It's just self-defense training. Don't let it get to you, Alina.
00:32:56What's your move?
00:33:00Um...
00:33:01I go for the more vulnerable part.
00:33:05Like...
00:33:06Stomping on the floor.
00:33:10Very nice. You're a very fast learner.
00:33:13I'm not.
00:33:15I'm not.
00:33:17I'm not.
00:33:19I'm not.
00:33:20Very nice. You're a very fast learner, aren't you?
00:33:24Okay. Third scenario.
00:33:27You ready?
00:33:28All right.
00:33:31What?
00:33:36Someone's got you like this.
00:33:39Starts choking you.
00:33:41Um...
00:33:42Pretty quick.
00:33:43Like this?
00:33:47Use your hips.
00:33:48What?
00:33:50Use your hips to thrust me off of you.
00:33:52As hard as you can.
00:33:57Ace, are you okay?
00:33:59Did I hurt your leg?
00:34:00No.
00:34:01What was that sound?
00:34:06It didn't hurt my leg.
00:34:08It's fine. That was a good job.
00:34:10No, you're hurt.
00:34:12Let me...
00:34:13It's fine. That was good work, though.
00:34:14Seriously.
00:34:15Ace, the new security equipment just arrived.
00:34:18Can you come check it out?
00:34:19Yeah, sure. Thanks, Josh.
00:34:21Good job today.
00:34:23Seriously.
00:34:30That sound was weird.
00:34:37Ace is hiding something from me.
00:34:40Hi.
00:34:41Alina, right?
00:34:42I'm Josh.
00:34:44I used to serve with Ace in the military,
00:34:46but now we're colleagues.
00:34:48He talks about you a lot.
00:34:49Hi, Josh.
00:34:52I'm sorry, can I ask...
00:34:54Is there something going on with Ace's leg?
00:35:00Huh?
00:35:01Leg?
00:35:02No.
00:35:03Not that I know of.
00:35:04You know,
00:35:05Ace has been single for years now.
00:35:07Everyone here knows that
00:35:10there's someone he's never been able to forget,
00:35:12and that person is you, Alina.
00:35:16You're mistaken.
00:35:17He...
00:35:18He doesn't love me.
00:35:20At all.
00:35:21If you knew him,
00:35:22then you would know that he broke up with me three years ago.
00:35:24You know,
00:35:25I might be just an outsider,
00:35:27but I know Ace.
00:35:29Maybe some things aren't what they seem.
00:35:33Alright,
00:35:34I gotta go check up on Ace and the new equipment.
00:35:36It was nice meeting you, Alina.
00:35:40Maybe some things aren't what they seem?
00:35:42What does that even mean?
00:35:45Yeah, thanks, Josh.
00:35:46Everything looks great.
00:35:47Okay.
00:35:52Ace,
00:35:53Alina asked about your leg.
00:35:57What'd you say?
00:36:03What'd you say?
00:36:04Don't worry,
00:36:05I didn't say a word.
00:36:07But,
00:36:08honestly, man,
00:36:09I think she still cares about you.
00:36:11Maybe it's time you told her the truth.
00:36:12I appreciate your input, Josh,
00:36:14but I think I know what's best for Alina and I.
00:36:17You might want to deal with that prosthetic soon, though.
00:36:19It's overdue for a replacement.
00:36:21If you keep stalling,
00:36:22you're gonna damage the nerves in your leg, man.
00:36:24You know that a new prosthetic would take about three weeks.
00:36:28I'm still on the job.
00:36:29I can't leave Alina alone.
00:36:30I think that would be very, uh,
00:36:32irresponsible of me, don't you think, Josh?
00:36:34Man,
00:36:35you're one hell of a romantic.
00:36:36You know that?
00:36:37Yeah, well,
00:36:38that makes one of us.
00:36:39Why don't you get the hell out of here, alright?
00:36:45Okay.
00:36:55Almighty God,
00:36:57in your mercy,
00:36:58turn the darkness of death
00:37:00into the dawn of new life
00:37:02and the sorrow of parting
00:37:04into the joy of heaven
00:37:06through our Savior, Jesus Christ,
00:37:08who died,
00:37:09rose again,
00:37:10and lives forevermore.
00:37:13Amen.
00:37:18My deepest condolences.
00:37:20May your father rest in peace.
00:37:22If your father knew that your reckless reforms
00:37:24would be tearing his company apart,
00:37:26he would never rest in peace.
00:37:28He was your brother.
00:37:30If you had even a shred of affection for him,
00:37:32you would never say something like that at his funeral.
00:37:36You know, Uncle Houston,
00:37:37I've always wondered,
00:37:38you've been far angrier about the healthcare reforms
00:37:40than my own father's murder.
00:37:43Could it be that you had something to do with his death?
00:37:47That is outrageous slander.
00:37:50How dare you accuse me of murdering my brother at his funeral.
00:38:02Sorry for your loss.
00:38:10It's okay.
00:38:37It's enough.
00:38:41This was my father's favorite.
00:38:44I got it for him for his birthday,
00:38:46but he didn't even get a chance to drink it.
00:38:58Right here.
00:39:00Not going anywhere.
00:39:11Good night.
00:39:17Don't go.
00:39:22Can you promise
00:39:24you won't leave me again?
00:39:27I promise.
00:39:29I'll never leave you again.
00:39:31Josh said that there's someone in your heart.
00:39:35Someone that you can't forget.
00:39:36Is that someone me?
00:39:41Tell me, Ace.
00:39:50Yes.
00:39:52That someone is you.
00:39:54And it always has been.
00:39:55If you love me, then why did you break up with me?
00:39:58Look, it's been a long day.
00:39:59I don't think
00:40:02we should talk about it.
00:40:04I'm just gonna end up hurting you.
00:40:05You did hurt me.
00:40:08Three years ago,
00:40:09I waited for you to come back and marry me.
00:40:12And then you left me for another woman.
00:40:15You broke my heart.
00:40:17And then you just walked back in my life
00:40:19like nothing happened.
00:40:21No.
00:40:22No!
00:40:38No.
00:41:03Oh my God, I drank too much.
00:41:06Can we sleep together?
00:41:09Hungry?
00:41:11I made you breakfast.
00:41:14Last night,
00:41:16we...
00:41:18You were drunk.
00:41:19Very drunk.
00:41:20I took care of you.
00:41:21That was it.
00:41:22He's not gonna mention the kiss.
00:41:25Jerk.
00:41:28Well,
00:41:29thank you
00:41:30so much for taking such great care of me,
00:41:33Mr. Bodyguard.
00:41:44You've been far angrier about the health care reforms
00:41:46than my own father's murder.
00:41:49Haven't you dealt with that bitch Elena yet?
00:41:51She's starting to suspect
00:41:52I had something to do with her father's death.
00:41:54She's hard to handle.
00:41:56The bodyguard of hers
00:41:57is practically glued on to her.
00:41:59I can never get her alone to make any real progress.
00:42:01This will not do.
00:42:04She's been lobbying aggressively within the company.
00:42:06Some of the board are starting to support her reforms.
00:42:09If she keeps this up,
00:42:11I'll get pushed out of the company.
00:42:13What do you want me to do?
00:42:16The company's annual gala is this weekend.
00:42:18Elena will undoubtedly use it
00:42:19to rally more support from the board.
00:42:21What you're going to do
00:42:22is invite her to go as your date,
00:42:24and then you're going to propose to her publicly.
00:42:27Tell her she'll get more support from the board
00:42:28if she's married with a husband.
00:42:30We can use the engagement to shift public focus
00:42:33away from reform.
00:42:34Kill two birds with one stone, I like that.
00:42:36Exactly.
00:42:37The media will be there
00:42:38and she won't reject you in front of everyone.
00:42:40There's no way she risks
00:42:41tanking the company's stock prices again.
00:42:48Elena.
00:42:50I was hoping I would be able to escort you
00:42:52to the company dinner this weekend.
00:42:56I told you,
00:42:57Mr. Vegas would be chasing this person.
00:42:59He's been at it for ages.
00:43:00His persistence is kind of impressive.
00:43:11Chad, I...
00:43:12Elena, trust me.
00:43:14I can help you win over a couple more board members
00:43:16for the healthcare reform plan.
00:43:22Yeah.
00:43:23Yes, I would love to go to dinner.
00:43:25Great.
00:43:26See you later.
00:43:34Yeah.
00:43:46How do I look?
00:43:49You look beautiful.
00:43:51You know, I don't know if you have to dress so formally.
00:43:55What, are you jealous?
00:43:57I just don't think that that guy
00:44:00deserves
00:44:03all of this.
00:44:08Oh, speak of the devil.
00:44:11Beautiful.
00:44:13Elena, we should get going.
00:44:14We're going to be late.
00:44:15And, uh, Ace.
00:44:18Remember your place.
00:44:19Okay there, sport?
00:44:20You're the bodyguard.
00:44:23So make sure you keep a professional distance
00:44:25between you and your employer, yeah?
00:44:33Okay.
00:44:42Elena's healthcare reform plan
00:44:43might have some short-term losses,
00:44:46but I believe the long-term benefits
00:44:48far outweigh the small drawbacks.
00:44:52Forget about that for a moment.
00:44:53What we're really curious about
00:44:55is how far you two have gotten.
00:44:59Given the company's current PR crisis,
00:45:01announcing a wedding might
00:45:02actually help repair its image.
00:45:04Elena,
00:45:06Chad seems like an excellent match.
00:45:08Oh, um,
00:45:10Mr. and Mrs. Hans,
00:45:11you're mistaken.
00:45:12Chad and I are-
00:45:13Thank you for your blessing,
00:45:14and we'll seriously consider it.
00:45:19Our company has faced challenges recently,
00:45:24but on this special night,
00:45:27our new CEO,
00:45:28Miss Elena Pearson,
00:45:30would like to say a few words.
00:45:35Before Miss Pearson says anything,
00:45:38I have a surprise for her.
00:45:43I have a surprise for her.
00:45:45Elena, I have loved you for so long.
00:46:01Will you marry me?
00:46:02Marry him! Marry him!
00:46:05Marry him! Marry him!
00:46:08Marry him! Marry him!
00:46:11Marry him! Marry him!
00:46:14Chad, stand up.
00:46:15What are you doing?
00:46:16I don't know.
00:46:18Come on. Let's go. We're leaving.
00:46:31What the hell are you doing?
00:46:33Storming out like that in front of all those guests.
00:46:35Do you realize how bad you're making the company's image look?
00:46:37Oh, really?
00:46:38So what, you're going to just marry that guy
00:46:40to save the company's image?
00:46:41That's ridiculous.
00:46:42Who I marry is none of your business.
00:46:45We're over, Ace.
00:46:46You're just my bodyguard.
00:46:47You don't get to interfere with my life.
00:46:49You don't mean that.
00:46:51You don't love that guy.
00:46:52You barely found him.
00:46:53You don't love him.
00:46:54You don't love him.
00:46:55You don't love him.
00:46:56You don't love him.
00:46:57You don't love him.
00:46:58You don't love him.
00:46:59You don't love that guy.
00:47:00You barely fucking know him.
00:47:01Who I love is none of your concern.
00:47:05Don't pretend to care about me, Ace Atkins,
00:47:07when you've pushed me away over and over again.
00:47:10Even if I'd said yes to Chad's proposal,
00:47:12you would have nothing to do with it
00:47:13and you couldn't stop me.
00:47:24Elena!
00:47:25Elena, where are you?
00:47:29Elena, are you in there?
00:47:35Tell him you're busy.
00:47:36Make him leave.
00:47:40Tell him you're busy.
00:47:41Make him leave.
00:48:00I'll be out in a minute.
00:48:03Are you sure you're okay?
00:48:08Yeah, I'm fine.
00:48:09Just go.
00:48:30Ace, you're a bastard.
00:48:33Okay, all right, I'm sorry about that,
00:48:35but that guy doesn't fucking deserve you.
00:48:37Oh, and you do?
00:48:38You abandoned me.
00:48:40We were supposed to get married.
00:48:43You have no right to say that to me.
00:48:45What do you think's going on here?
00:48:47Do you think that I don't love you?
00:48:50I mean, do you have any fucking idea how much I...
00:48:52Elena!
00:48:53Who's in there with you?
00:48:54How much what?
00:48:55What are you saying?
00:49:00How much what?
00:49:01What are you saying?
00:49:02Elena!
00:49:04What do you think?
00:49:09What are you two doing in here?
00:49:11I could ask you the same question, Chad.
00:49:14You told me it was just a date to the gala,
00:49:16and then you go and pull that stunt out there?
00:49:18Proposing in front of everyone?
00:49:20What, have you lost your mind?
00:49:22Elena, I have been pursuing you for so long,
00:49:24and you've never rejected me.
00:49:26So, that has to mean that you feel the same way.
00:49:30What?
00:49:31I haven't said anything.
00:49:33You need to go out and tell the people the truth.
00:49:35What's the difference, hmm?
00:49:37Everybody already thinks that you're my fiancee now.
00:49:40Since you've never rejected me,
00:49:41it's clear that you like me.
00:49:43It's only natural for us to meet again.
00:49:45Hey, don't step closer.
00:49:47And who the hell are you?
00:49:48You're just a fucking bodyguard!
00:49:52Don't think I don't see what's happening.
00:49:54Acting all on your high horse,
00:49:56but deep down, you're just a slut
00:49:57sleeping with your bodyguard.
00:50:07Bravo.
00:50:08Bravo, you two are the perfect pair of adulters.
00:50:10Hey, this must be nice, huh?
00:50:12Living with your boss,
00:50:13sleeping with her on the side.
00:50:15Shut the fuck up.
00:50:16What's the matter, struck a nerve?
00:50:17Elena, you have the audacity
00:50:20to accuse me of damaging the company?
00:50:24Take a look in the mirror.
00:50:26You're the CEO,
00:50:27sleeping with your fucking bodyguard.
00:50:29You're the real disgrace to the piercing group.
00:50:36See that girl right there?
00:50:37There's no one in the world that I love more than her.
00:50:39You're not gonna disrespect her.
00:50:41You show face around here again,
00:50:42I'm gonna fuck you two over.
00:50:43You understand?
00:50:44Do you understand?
00:50:51Fuck.
00:50:56You, you left me?
00:51:01Did you mean what you said?
00:51:04Please just tell me the truth.
00:51:06That's all it takes for us to start over.
00:51:11No, Elena, I can't be with you.
00:51:14I'm just a man with a prosthetic.
00:51:16I'm not whole.
00:51:17I'll never be enough for you.
00:51:19That was just impulsive.
00:51:20I shouldn't have said that.
00:51:21I'm sorry.
00:51:23You're lying.
00:51:24You still keep a photo of us in your wallet.
00:51:28You'd risk your life for me.
00:51:29You'd stay up all night to protect me.
00:51:31That is not just a bodyguard doing his job.
00:51:34That is something more and you know it.
00:51:37Moments ago, right here,
00:51:38you said that you love me
00:51:39more than anyone else in the world.
00:51:41Ace.
00:51:45Why won't you admit that you still love me?
00:51:48Elena, look.
00:51:53Look.
00:51:56I'm here to guard you.
00:51:58I'm your bodyguard.
00:52:01I shouldn't have crossed the line and I'm sorry.
00:52:04Now, let's go.
00:52:07Stay away from me.
00:52:09Elena.
00:52:12I'm sorry, Elena.
00:52:14I can't hold you back.
00:52:15You deserve better than a broken man like myself.
00:52:23Can't handle one woman?
00:52:25Absolutely useless.
00:52:26That bitch has been screwing everybody
00:52:28the whole damn time.
00:52:29What do you want me to do?
00:52:30That pathetic freaking loser.
00:52:34I'm gonna kill him.
00:52:37It's only a matter of time.
00:52:39If that's the case,
00:52:40there's only one option left.
00:52:43We want Pearson Group.
00:52:45We're going to have to eliminate her.
00:52:47Just like we did her father.
00:53:01You think you can fix everything
00:53:03with these little tricks?
00:53:05Won't work, Ace.
00:53:06Eat your favorite.
00:53:08French toast.
00:53:10Been up since six making sure everything was perfect.
00:53:13I know it's been a while,
00:53:14so I hope it tastes like
00:53:17how you remember it.
00:53:32Oliver, what are you...
00:53:33What are you doing here?
00:53:35This is a signed first edition.
00:53:39Mr. Atkins went through several of his connections
00:53:42to track that down for you.
00:53:45And while you were at your meetings,
00:53:47he took it upon himself
00:53:49to redecorate your entire office.
00:53:59Do you really think gestures like these
00:54:01are going to make me forgive you?
00:54:06I just want you to be happy, Elena.
00:54:09Elena, whether you forgive me or not
00:54:12doesn't really matter.
00:54:14You have every right to hate me
00:54:15and to push me away if that's what you want.
00:54:18But please, just don't let this anger
00:54:22eat away at you.
00:54:24It wasn't your fault.
00:54:25None of it was.
00:54:28It was mine.
00:54:30Don't think you've won me over.
00:54:31I haven't forgiven you yet.
00:54:35Don't think you've won me over.
00:54:36I haven't forgiven you yet.
00:54:40Go make me a coffee.
00:54:42I have a meeting soon.
00:54:49Ms. Pearson, if I may say,
00:54:53Mr. Atkins cares for you deeply.
00:54:56And from the way you look at him,
00:54:58it's clear you feel the same way.
00:55:01So why not just be together?
00:55:04Oliver, you don't understand.
00:55:06Every time I take a step forward,
00:55:08somebody takes two steps back.
00:55:11It's not that simple.
00:55:12Well, then maybe you should take the lead.
00:55:17Valentine's Day is right around the corner.
00:55:20Why not use the occasion to clear the air
00:55:24and finally talk it through?
00:55:29Maybe.
00:55:39Maybe you should take the lead.
00:55:43The first gift I ever gave Ace was a motorcycle,
00:55:46and he loved it.
00:55:48Ace, stay here.
00:55:49I have a surprise for you.
00:55:55All right.
00:55:56And your order will be delivered tonight.
00:55:58Thank you so much.
00:55:59Thank you for shopping with us, Ms. Pearson.
00:56:39Josh, Josh!
00:56:41Melinda's been taken.
00:56:42Activate the tracking system.
00:56:43Get the cops involved.
00:56:44I'm going after her.
00:56:53I'm sorry.
00:56:54I didn't mean to scare you.
00:56:55I'm sorry.
00:56:56I'm sorry.
00:56:57I'm sorry.
00:56:58I'm sorry.
00:56:59I'm sorry.
00:57:00I'm sorry.
00:57:01I'm sorry.
00:57:02I'm sorry.
00:57:03I'm sorry.
00:57:04I'm sorry.
00:57:05I'm sorry.
00:57:06I'm sorry.
00:57:07I'm sorry.
00:57:17Who are you?
00:57:18Look, if this is about the company's health care reforms,
00:57:20then I promise you I'm proposing a new plan.
00:57:23It's set to pass on Monday,
00:57:25so please don't kill me.
00:57:26Shut your mouth.
00:57:29This isn't about health care.
00:57:30You've got it all wrong.
00:57:31What?
00:57:37My uncle hired you? He paid you to kill my dad?
00:57:43It didn't take you long enough to figure out. Daddy's little girl is so clever.
00:57:49Now sign the damn thing or I'll put a hole in your head!
00:57:56Okay, I'll sign. But you have to let me go after.
00:58:00Good. Sign it, then you're free to go.
00:58:05He's lying. As soon as I sign, he'll kill me. Think, Elena, think!
00:58:10Hurry up. Don't try anything stupid or break your legs before you can escape.
00:58:28No, I don't want to die. Please, Ace, save me.
00:58:35Now that this job is completed, I can never have to worry about money ever again.
00:58:42Good job.
00:59:01Drop your weapon or I'll blow her brains out.
00:59:04Ace, don't do it.
00:59:06Drop your weapon!
00:59:14Good job. Close your eyes and walk toward me.
00:59:17Good.
00:59:19No! No!
00:59:34No! No!
00:59:40Are you crazy? He had a gun pointed at your head and you still went after him.
00:59:48I thought I lost you.
00:59:50It's going to be okay.
00:59:54I knew exactly what he was doing when he asked me to close my eyes. It's over.
01:00:08Who shot you?
01:00:12Okay, just give me a minute. I don't want to die.
01:00:14You're going to get some help as soon as you give me some fucking answers, so talk!
01:00:19It was Houston. He paid me to kill Carter.
01:00:23The kid and Elena. There's proof.
01:00:26Where?
01:00:27My left jacket pocket. Just check it!
01:00:34Kill that idiot Carter Pearson and the five million dollars is yours.
01:00:40Why would he murder his own brother? My father's been nothing but kind to him.
01:00:50The cops are on the way. Everything's fine.
01:00:53Ace, I don't understand.
01:00:55Houston was the company's second largest shareholder. What more could he possibly want?
01:01:00Why would he murder my father?
01:01:03And in front of me too.
01:01:07And in front of me too.
01:01:09I'm going to have to live with that image scarred into the back of my mind for the rest of my life.
01:01:14Some people just want more.
01:01:16And it's never enough. They're just greedy and they're monsters and you never have to think about them again, okay?
01:01:21It's over.
01:01:23It's over.
01:01:28I want to go home.
01:01:29Hey, let's go.
01:01:31Okay.
01:01:37He's pulling over.
01:01:39What's wrong?
01:01:41Your arm, it's bleeding. Didn't you notice?
01:01:44No, I didn't notice. It must have happened during the fight.
01:01:47You're unbelievable.
01:01:50It's fine.
01:01:52Just pull over right up there.
01:01:54It's fine.
01:01:55No, I'll take care of it. We'll stop for a bit.
01:01:58Ace, why did you cheat on me all those years ago?
01:02:03What? Come on.
01:02:04Tell me the truth or I swear I will wrap this bandage around your arm so hard you can't feel it.
01:02:28Hey, look, I screwed up.
01:02:30But that's in the past.
01:02:32I just want to move forward, okay?
01:02:35Please be honest with me. Do you still love me?
01:02:38Come on, don't try and dodge the question.
01:02:41Today you could have called for backup, but you didn't.
01:02:44You charged right in to save me.
01:02:46If you didn't care about me,
01:02:49you wouldn't have gone to such extremes.
01:02:53I love you.
01:02:55I love you.
01:02:57Always have, never stop, not even for a second.
01:03:00I believe you this time.
01:03:03Let's start fresh.
01:03:05I love you, Elena. I've always loved you.
01:03:08Come here.
01:03:16Dude, you need to get your prosthetic leg checked ASAP.
01:03:19I talked to Dr. Dean and he said if you don't get treated soon,
01:03:22your leg may forever lose sensation.
01:03:30Today we're here to talk about my health care reform strategy.
01:03:34You can't even handle your personal life.
01:03:37The news came out and this company's stock prices fell another five points.
01:03:42And yet you still think you can push through reforms.
01:03:45I'm the first to object.
01:03:47Elena, do you know how the other health care companies are mocking us?
01:03:50They're saying that we're spineless idiots because we let a woman become the CEO.
01:03:57Uncle Houston, if my scandals are causing such problems for the company,
01:04:02how do you plan to account for the damages that your actions have caused?
01:04:08Like hiring someone to kill my father.
01:04:14Like hiring someone to kill my father.
01:04:20That's slander.
01:04:22Your father was killed by an angry citizen who is dissatisfied with the current health care system.
01:04:27What does that have to do with me?
01:04:33Kill that idiot Carter Pearson and the five million dollars is yours.
01:04:41I testify that Houston Pearson paid me to kill Carter Pearson
01:04:45and then he paid me to try to kill Elena Pearson.
01:04:51I hereby declare that Houston Pearson is immediately stripped of all his duties within this group.
01:04:59You murdered my father and tried to kill me.
01:05:02You need to pay for your crimes.
01:05:04You need to pay for your crimes.
01:05:06Who do you think you are?
01:05:08Do you think you can kick me out of Pearson Group?
01:05:11I gave everything to this company.
01:05:14Why should you, the daughter of that idiot Carter Pearson, inherit this company?
01:05:18What is wrong with increasing the claim denial rate?
01:05:21This company's profits doubled because I developed AI technology
01:05:26that increased our claim denial rate to 40 percent, the highest in the industry.
01:05:31And that old fool Carter, he dared to yell at me over this.
01:05:35He deserved to die.
01:05:37Every accomplishment you've made has been riding off the coattails of struggling people and my father's life.
01:05:44And you show no remorse for them.
01:05:45You're a monster.
01:05:48Don't move.
01:05:53Raise your hands.
01:05:56Houston Pearson, you're under arrest for first degree murder.
01:06:16Now does anyone else have anything to say?
01:06:21Great.
01:06:23All those in favor of implementing my health care reform strategy, raise your hand.
01:06:45Very well.
01:06:47It seems the majority has voted yes.
01:06:50I declare that the health care reform plan, with the slogan, deliver, declare, and disclose,
01:06:57has officially passed and will be implemented by the end of this month.
01:07:13It has been passed and will be implemented immediately.
01:07:33Cheers.
01:07:35Congratulations on the huge success of the health care reform.
01:07:40Bring it in, guys.
01:07:43Congrats, you two.
01:07:45Looks like you guys are officially back together.
01:07:47Should I be planning your reunion party?
01:07:49That's enough.
01:07:51Miss Pearson, if your father could see you now, he'd be so proud.
01:07:59Thank you so much, guys.
01:08:01If it hadn't been for you, I don't think my health care reform plan would have passed.
01:08:06Especially you, Ace.
01:08:09I don't know what I would have done without you.
01:08:14Well, I'll always be your rock.
01:08:20Cheers.
01:08:21Heck yeah.
01:08:34Hey.
01:08:37Were you looking for me?
01:08:38Josh is out there drinking like a wild animal and he's trying to make everyone join him.
01:08:44Oh, just keeping an eye on him.
01:08:47I don't have any time to waste on that stuff.
01:08:50I guess I have to preserve all my energy for you.
01:08:57Mr. Atkins, your duties as a bodyguard are officially over.
01:09:03What's next on your agenda?
01:09:05I have a few ideas.
01:09:06I have a few ideas.
01:09:37Sorry.
01:09:39What's wrong?
01:09:44What's wrong?
01:09:46Nothing. Just...
01:09:51I don't know if we're in the right place or if it's the right time.
01:09:56What?
01:09:58After everything we've been through, Ace, I thought we were past this.
01:10:02I know, but I...
01:10:04But what?
01:10:07I just... I don't think we should rush into this. I think we should think this through, okay?
01:10:13You're a jerk.
01:10:22God, what an asshole. Why does he keep pushing me away?
01:10:36Ace!
01:10:55Ace! Ace!
01:10:57It's okay.
01:10:58Ace!
01:10:59It's okay. He's dead. It's over.
01:11:06Ace!
01:11:10Oh, my God! Miss Pearson! I'm going to call an ambulance!
01:11:21Is he going to be okay, Doctor?
01:11:30Sir?
01:11:33Don't tell Elena about it.
01:11:37My prosthetic leg.
01:11:40All right. I respect your wishes.
01:11:46Fortunately, the bullet didn't hit any vital organs.
01:11:50His physical condition is excellent, so he should recover quickly.
01:11:54Thank you, Doctor.
01:11:57By the way, there's a police officer waiting for you in the reception room.
01:12:01Okay. I'll go there now, then.
01:12:07Officer, what's going on with the assassin?
01:12:09Why would someone try and kill me when Houston's already been apprehended?
01:12:16According to our investigation, Chad Vega, one of your company's executives,
01:12:20has been involved in long-term illegal financial crimes with Houston.
01:12:25The killer was hired by him.
01:12:27What?
01:12:29Chad was in cahoots with Houston?
01:12:31Ten minutes ago, we apprehended Chad at his residence.
01:12:34You can rest assured that, with Houston's testimony,
01:12:37all related individuals have been arrested.
01:12:40Are you safe?
01:12:42Considering your bodyguard was injured,
01:12:44the police are going to offer you protection until the trial is over.
01:12:49You can rest.
01:12:51I'm going to pick up Ace's clothes, and I'll be back tomorrow morning.
01:12:56Ace?
01:13:04Ace?
01:13:10Dear Elena,
01:13:11the bodyguard mission is complete, and you're no longer in danger,
01:13:14so it's time for me to leave.
01:13:16I just wanted to say goodbye, and I wish you all the best.
01:13:20Ace.
01:13:22What the hell?
01:13:24You're leaving me again?
01:13:26I won't let you leave without an explanation.
01:13:34Ace.
01:13:52It's her.
01:13:53The woman that Ace cheated on me with.
01:13:56So you're a physical therapist?
01:13:59That's your daughter and husband?
01:14:01Yes.
01:14:03I'm so sorry I deceived you three years ago.
01:14:06You didn't date Ace, so why did you help him deceive me?
01:14:10This involves Ace's privacy,
01:14:12and I'm not at liberty to disclose that information.
01:14:15But Elena, I assure you Ace did not betray you.
01:14:19Then why?
01:14:21Why did he lie to me, make me hate him, and break up with me?
01:14:25I think you're supposed to uncover the truth for yourself.
01:14:30But I think that deep down, Ace really wants you to know everything.
01:14:35He's just too afraid to tell you.
01:14:45Elena, what are you doing here?
01:14:47Josh, Ace isn't at the hospital, and he just left me a note.
01:14:50Do you know where he is?
01:14:51What?
01:14:53Doesn't he know how important it is to recover properly
01:14:55after his surgery for his new prosthetic leg?
01:15:00What do you mean prosthetic leg?
01:15:04Oh man, I wasn't supposed to say that.
01:15:07Josh, what do you mean prosthetic?
01:15:10Alright.
01:15:12Three years ago, Ace's leg was blown off during combat.
01:15:16Your father told him that a disabled person would only burden you.
01:15:20So he pretended to cheat on you and broke up with you.
01:15:24Later, after he got his prosthetic leg,
01:15:27he still felt like a disabled person.
01:15:29He thought a great girl like you deserved better.
01:15:32So he avoided you at critical moments.
01:15:38Go check out the rehabilitation center.
01:15:40He's getting his new prosthetic leg fixed right now.
01:15:43Go find him.
01:15:44Ace, you jerk.
01:15:46How could you keep something so important from me?
01:15:49This time, I won't let you go.
01:15:51I won't let you walk away again.
01:15:54Fortunately, you came in time.
01:15:57The old prosthetic didn't do too much damage to the nerves.
01:16:00With treatment, you should recover naturally.
01:16:03This one is newly made for you. Try it.
01:16:06Thanks.
01:16:23This is the secret you've been keeping from me?
01:16:27This is why you've been pushing me away?
01:16:30What are you doing here?
01:16:31You shouldn't be here. You need to leave.
01:16:53This is why you've been pushing me away?
01:16:57Elena, you shouldn't be seeing me like this.
01:17:01I need you to leave right now.
01:17:02Why wouldn't you just tell me?
01:17:05Do you really think that little of me?
01:17:08That I'm just a shallow, unsupportive partner?
01:17:11How was I supposed to tell you this, Elena?
01:17:13I mean, why would a guy like me be able to be with a perfect woman like you?
01:17:20Huh?
01:17:21I mean, I can't even do half the things I was able to three years ago.
01:17:25I mean, you don't know how this feels, okay?
01:17:26I mean, just fucking look at me, Elena.
01:17:28I can't even stand up straight.
01:17:30But I love you.
01:17:33Ace, can't you see?
01:17:36No matter how you feel about yourself, I have always loved you. Always.
01:17:46Elena, come on. Why?
01:17:47Just stop pushing me away.
01:17:51Ace Atkins, you listen to me right now.
01:17:57You have left me so many times.
01:18:01You can't keep running from me.
01:18:03I am here to stay.
01:18:06Got it?
01:18:08I love you so much. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
01:18:21I'm sorry.
01:18:28Nothing feels uncomfortable?
01:18:30Come on, don't try and be tough.
01:18:32No, this one's more comfortable than the last one, actually.
01:18:37You know, I wouldn't blame you if you didn't want to do this.
01:18:40I'm disabled and I might become a burden to you when we're older.
01:18:46Have you thought about that?
01:18:48If you ever say something so pessimistic again, I will twist your ear off.
01:18:54I love Ace Atkins.
01:18:56The person, not the leg.
01:18:59So what if you're missing a leg? I will love you all the same.
01:19:02Would you leave me if I was missing a leg?
01:19:07No. No, of course not.
01:19:10I'll always be by your side.
01:19:13Let me do the same.
01:19:16I am choosing you, okay?
01:19:21Got it.
01:19:35Miss Pearson,
01:19:38your compensation clause for critical illness has saved my daughter's life.
01:19:45Miss Pearson, your health care reform plan has been a great success,
01:19:48making you the most popular CEO in the U.S.
01:19:51What made you insist on health care reform despite everyone's doubts?
01:19:55I was able to overcome many obstacles and achieve reform success,
01:20:00partly due to great planning, but also because of my fiancé, Ace Atkins.
01:20:07His love helped me overcome all difficulties.
01:20:15I love you.
