00:00:00Yes!
00:00:09Your deployment's tomorrow. I'm still worried.
00:00:20Don't worry. I'm going to be back. I'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.
00:00:48I miss you so much.
00:00:49Oh, my God. It's so good to see you.
00:00:52It's so good to see you.
00:00:53I miss you a lot.
00:00:56Can't wait to go home together.
00:00:57Yeah. What are you having for dinner?
00:00:59I'm so sorry to interrupt, but have you seen Ace? He was supposed to come out with you.
00:01:04Ace? He's been back for a month. He didn't tell you.
00:01:08What?
00:01:11Call him up. You'll see.
00:01:14Let's go.
00:01:17Ace came back a month ago, but he hasn't been answering my calls.
00:01:22Ace, open up. I know you're in there.
00:01:30Ace! Ace!
00:01:32Ace!
00:01:36Ace, what are you doing?
00:01:52Who is that woman?
00:01:57Ace, open the door!
00:02:00Who the hell are you, and what do you want with Ace?
00:02:03I need to see him.
00:02:10Ace!
00:02:10Please.
00:02:12Explain.
00:02:13Look, I don't know what you want me to say.
00:02:16It's over.
00:02:18I got myself a new girl.
00:02:20It's time for you to move on.
00:02:22What do you mean it's over?
00:02:23I waited for you for three years.
00:02:26You said we were going to get married when you came back,
00:02:28and now you're just telling me to move on?
00:02:30I was just fooling around that whole time.
00:02:32I didn't mean any of it.
00:02:34Besides, I was never in love with you like I am with Sally.
00:02:37She's the one, all right?
00:02:38It's not you.
00:02:40I don't believe you.
00:02:41No, I demand that you come out here and talk to me face to face.
00:02:45You owe me that at least.
00:02:46That's the problem with you, isn't it?
00:02:48You're always demanding this, demanding that.
00:02:49If Elena's not happy, nobody's happy.
00:02:51You're a spoiled rich heiress,
00:02:53and no guy wants a woman like that.
00:02:56Can't you understand that?
00:02:58Just fuck off.
00:02:59My dad was right about you.
00:03:04I never should have fallen for you.
00:03:06I hate you, Ace Atkins!
00:03:18Did you really have to be so cruel?
00:03:20I mean, I feel like you probably could have told her the truth.
00:03:22She's not going to leave you.
00:03:29That's what I'm afraid of.
00:03:35I love her.
00:03:38She's got to let her go.
00:03:43Let's get you into that wheelchair.
00:03:44I want you to end things with Elena.
00:04:07The engagement is off.
00:04:08Take this money as your compensation.
00:04:10Mr. 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.
00:04:22That's all I'm asking.
00:04:23What can you possibly do for Elena when you can't even stand on your own?
00:04:27All you'll do is break her heart.
00:04:30I'll never let my little girl marry a one-legged cripple.
00:04:33If you really love her, leave her alone.
00:04:35Thanks for doing this, Sally.
00:05:03I really appreciate it.
00:05:04We'll start physical therapy in 10 minutes.
00:05:09I'll go get the equipment.
00:05:14I love you, Elena.
00:05:16Forget about me.
00:05:18You'll find happiness again.
00:05:19Early this morning, Carter Pearson, CEO of Pearson Healthcare, was fatally shot by a gunman on 5th Avenue.
00:05:31Police suspect the attack may be related to the wave of insurance policy changes that Pearson Healthcare is preparing to implement.
00:05:38For now, the gunman remains at large, while Elena Pearson, the victim's daughter, is set to take over as CEO.
00:05:44Clean that up.
00:05:56Clean that up.
00:05:56Good morning, gentlemen.
00:06:04I've called this emergency meeting to make an important announcement.
00:06:08I will be continuing to advance healthcare reform.
00:06:11The goal is to ensure all patients receive fair insurance coverage and to make healthcare more affordable for everyone.
00:06:20My plan...
00:06:22To hell with your shit plan.
00:06:28You're giving away our profits to these poor people.
00:06:30I reject it.
00:06:32Uncle Houston, poor healthcare policies have led to my father's death.
00:06:35My plans are implemented to correct these wrongs.
00:06:39No matter what you say, I will never, ever change my mind.
00:06:44Really?
00:06:46You think you can control the entire group?
00:06:49I'm not the only one against this bullshit plan.
00:06:51I'm not the only one against this bullshit plan.
00:07:21I'm not the only one against this bullshit plan.
00:07:26I don't know if I'm not the only one against this bullshit plan.
00:07:30I'm not the only one against this bullshit plan.
00:07:36Looks like you all need some more training still.
00:07:38Got a long way to go.
00:07:42Will the healthcare heiress be able to bring about meaningful reform?
00:07:45Or will she be next on the assassin's list?
00:07:48Hey 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?
00:08:00I think anyone's going to protect her like I would, Josh.
00:08:04I'll handle it.
00:08:13Elena, today you're going to follow my plan to increase health care prices.
00:08:19But we will vote to dismiss you as CEO. Simple as that.
00:08:24Without the board's approval, you have no right to dismiss me.
00:08:34Have you lost your mind? Forcing a signature is illegal.
00:08:41No one here will testify against me. Just sign the damn paper.
00:08:45Are you all going to let him do this?
00:08:47Elena, you're asking us to throw our money away on those low-lifes.
00:08:51Don't blame us because we're not picking your side.
00:09:00Let's go, guys. Come on.
00:09:01Get your hands off of her.
00:09:18No way.
00:09:19That voice.
00:09:20It can't be him.
00:09:23It can't be him.
00:09:25You can't!
00:09:25Long time no see, Miss Pearson.
00:09:39I'm your personal bodyguard.
00:09:41It's been three years.
00:09:43I've missed you, Elena.
00:09:45You're in what?
00:09:46Jesus, Elena.
00:09:47Did you do something about your bodyguard?
00:09:50Stupid or something?
00:09:51You insult my boss again.
00:09:56You're going to be the one that needs some fucking health care.
00:09:59Okay, everyone out of my boardroom.
00:10:06Leave!
00:10:07Or you're fired.
00:10:08I don't give a shit you're my uncle.
00:10:10There's only one way to deal with people like you, Elena.
00:10:12And that's to get rid of them.
00:10:14Just like I got rid of your father.
00:10:16What are you doing here?
00:10:22No one told me anything about needing a personal bodyguard.
00:10:27Well, Miss Pearson.
00:10:29Mr. Atkins.
00:10:31I'm Oliver, the family butler.
00:10:33Miss, Mr. Ace Atkins is the most sought-after bodyguard in America.
00:10:40Now, as for the contract, he will provide you protection 24 hours to ensure your safety at all times.
00:10:50No.
00:10:52I won't have him as my bodyguard.
00:10:56I won't have him as my bodyguard.
00:10:58Oliver, you can get me literally anyone else.
00:11:02Anyone but him.
00:11:03Ma'am, I urge you to rethink this.
00:11:05With him around, your safety is practically guaranteed.
00:11:11Oliver, can you leave us alone for a minute?
00:11:13I need to talk to him.
00:11:15Yes, ma'am.
00:11:19Ace, what are you doing here?
00:11:21I was just making sure that you're safe.
00:11:23Healthcare CEOs are on high alert right now and, uh, well...
00:11:27I was worried about you.
00:11:30We broke up three years ago.
00:11:31You cheated on me.
00:11:32You don't have the right to be worried about me.
00:11:34The last thing I need right now is you being my bodyguard.
00:11:40The contract's already signed, so I'll just cover the termination fee.
00:11:44No, go.
00:11:44I don't really understand why you're refusing all of this help.
00:11:50Are you afraid you're gonna fall in love with me again?
00:11:56Are you afraid you're gonna fall in love with me again?
00:11:59Why is my heart beating so fast?
00:12:01You're delusional.
00:12:03Elena.
00:12:04The rational thing to do is to think of your safety right now, so just let me protect you.
00:12:13Only an idiot would entrust their safety to someone who cheated on them while they were engaged.
00:12:19Let go.
00:12:23Take me home.
00:12:28Elena.
00:12:28You broke my heart.
00:12:35Now you come back into my life like it's nothing?
00:12:43That's odd.
00:12:45I turned off the lights when I left the house, right?
00:12:47Someone broke my heart.
00:12:54Someone broke in.
00:12:55The killer?
00:12:56The killer?
00:12:56The killer?
00:12:56The killer?
00:12:56Why so surprised, princess?
00:13:21Didn't you know you were gonna be next?
00:13:26No.
00:13:27I don't wanna die, please.
00:13:28Someone help me.
00:13:29I love me.
00:13:56I don't...
00:13:56I'm so good.
00:14:12I thought I was going to die.
00:14:15You're safe.
00:14:17You're hurt.
00:14:18You're all right?
00:14:19You saved me.
00:14:22Nice.
00:14:25You're bleeding.
00:14:26He might be an asshole, but damn, he's even hotter than he used to be.
00:14:35He's still got that same glow.
00:14:37God, I missed her.
00:14:40Do you remember the last time we had a bathroom?
00:14:45He's hard.
00:14:58Yes, ma'am.
00:15:00That guy got you in the leg, too, right?
00:15:08I should wrap that up.
00:15:11He tried to stab me in the leg, and he missed.
00:15:14It's fine.
00:15:15I saw the knife go straight into your leg.
00:15:18He says, is there something wrong?
00:15:23It's fine.
00:15:24Okay.
00:15:25He's still in the leg.
00:15:25He's still in the leg.
00:15:26I caught my leg.
00:15:26He's still in the leg.
00:15:28He's still in the leg.
00:15:28I'll be trying to grab that or take a hold.
00:15:29He's still in the leg.
00:15:30Oh, my...
00:15:59My...
00:16:02Am I interrupting?
00:16:04No, no.
00:16:06Ace cut himself, and I was just helping him dress the wound.
00:16:14Mr. Atkins, I brought your luggage up.
00:16:17Great.
00:16:19Wait, he's not staying with me.
00:16:21Yes, Miss Pearson, of course.
00:16:24That's exactly what a personal bodyguard does.
00:16:28The contract clearly states that Mr. Atkins must remain by your side 24-7 to ensure your safety.
00:16:37Oliver, it's not just about the contract. I can't...
00:16:41I can't let my ex-boyfriend live with me as my bodyguard.
00:16:46You must understand.
00:16:48You might very well be the next target.
00:16:52If you fail to understand this, then I shall have to tender my letter of resignation.
00:16:59Fine.
00:17:01Oliver, you win.
00:17:03Brilliant.
00:17:05Mr. Atkins, from here on out, Miss Pearson's safety is in your hands.
00:17:11I would take a bullet for her.
00:17:12I would take a bullet for her.
00:17:17You're the first door on the left.
00:17:32You can stay there.
00:17:34Elena, please.
00:17:35Ace, let's just address the elephant in the room.
00:17:38We broke up three years ago, and that's that.
00:17:41Now, if you're going to be staying here, we need to establish some boundaries.
00:17:45So, here's how it's going to go.
00:17:47You are going to do your job as my bodyguard, and I'm going to live my life.
00:17:51Nothing else.
00:17:53Is that clear?
00:17:55Crystal.
00:17:56I've been unpacking myself.
00:18:13This is what?
00:18:18You said you never left me, so why do you have a photo of me inside your wallet?
00:18:37I checked the house.
00:18:38It's all clear.
00:18:39Safe to sleep.
00:18:40Great.
00:18:41Thanks.
00:18:42I'm going to go to bed now.
00:18:46Tale in New Jersey.
00:19:12Sorry. I thought you were in danger.
00:19:22Just hand me that towel.
00:19:39It's not like I haven't seen you before.
00:19:42Be professional. I'm still your boss, remember?
00:19:55Yes, ma'am.
00:20:12You've changed a lot, Elena.
00:20:21And after all these years, I still feel the same about you.
00:20:24Yes, I have some scar cream for you.
00:20:29Yeah, just hold on a second. One minute.
00:20:33Hey, what's up?
00:20:34Hey.
00:20:35Just have something for the scars.
00:20:36I can put it on.
00:20:38Good.
00:20:39Good.
00:20:40Good.
00:20:41Good.
00:20:42Good.
00:20:43Good.
00:20:44Good.
00:20:45Good.
00:20:46Good.
00:20:47Good.
00:20:48Good.
00:20:49Good.
00:20:50Good.
00:20:51Good.
00:20:52Good.
00:20:53Good.
00:20:54Good.
00:20:55Good.
00:20:56Good.
00:20:57Good.
00:20:58Good.
00:20:59Good.
00:21:00Good.
00:21:06Good.
00:21:07Good.
00:21:08Good.
00:21:09Yeah.
00:21:10Good.
00:21:11Good.
00:21:12Show this much care for me still
00:21:15Get out for yourself
00:21:18I'm just helping you because I'm nice
00:21:21Why not calm yourself?
00:21:24He's just a stupid ex with a hot body
00:21:26Okay
00:21:28Okay
00:21:28Thank you
00:21:33Thank you
00:21:34Okay, what is with you and this blanket?
00:21:42I saw that guy get you in the leg
00:21:44I think it's fine
00:21:47Just sitting
00:21:49That's how I sit
00:21:50I call BS, let me see it
00:21:54What if I'm hiding something under there?
00:22:09Maybe I'm hiding
00:22:11I'm the owner
00:22:12I'll see it
00:22:13You're not my boyfriend anymore
00:22:23You're my bodyguard
00:22:24You should keep things professional
00:22:27You're right, Elena
00:22:38I'm just your bodyguard
00:22:40Elena
00:22:50I want you to put this on
00:22:53It's lightweight
00:22:53You won't even feel it
00:22:55I'm not wearing that
00:22:56You can either do it yourself
00:22:58Or I could strip your clothes off for you
00:23:00And I can do it
00:23:02And if you ask me
00:23:03I prefer the latter
00:23:04Look, I can do it myself
00:23:06There?
00:23:13I've got it
00:23:15Why does he have to be so damn attractive?
00:23:36It's inside
00:23:37Okay, I have to go
00:23:42I'm late for work
00:23:44Yes, ma'am
00:23:46I'm assuming that assassination didn't go as planned?
00:23:53That idiot calls himself a hitman
00:23:55He can't handle a defenseless woman
00:23:56Chan
00:23:59I'm leaving this to you
00:24:01Seduce Elena
00:24:02Get her under your thumb
00:24:03And Pearson Healthcare is ours
00:24:05Consider it done
00:24:06Jesus, Chad
00:24:14How many times have I told you to knock?
00:24:16What do you want?
00:24:19You owe me dinner, remember?
00:24:20I remember
00:24:21But I'm swamped with work
00:24:24And planning a funeral
00:24:25So can we take a brain check?
00:24:26Okay, let me handle the funeral preparations
00:24:28You've been working too hard since your father passed
00:24:32This is how people get burned down
00:24:33You need to take some time off to relax
00:24:35Yeah
00:24:44You know what?
00:24:46Let's do dinner
00:24:47Great
00:24:52Sir, this is a table for two
00:25:08Why don't you go sit over there?
00:25:12I'm Miss Pearson's bodyguard
00:25:21I gotta keep a tight perimeter around her at all times
00:25:38But thanks for checking in
00:25:49Well, don't let me interrupt
00:25:50If you guys haven't ordered yet
00:25:51Go ahead
00:25:5782 Lafite
00:25:58Your favorite
00:25:59I found a collector who was willing to sell it to me
00:26:03Here, have a taste
00:26:08Hey, I find it kind of rude, Chad
00:26:10That you're not offering me a drink
00:26:11I am attending this dinner with the two of you, aren't I?
00:26:14Well, Mr. Atkins
00:26:16Seeing that you're Elena's bodyguard
00:26:18I didn't find it appropriate for you to be drinking on the job now
00:26:21My apologies
00:26:23Elena
00:26:27I know how tough it's been for you
00:26:28And I want you to know that I'm here for you
00:26:30Always
00:26:32And that my heart belongs to you
00:26:35Sorry, Chad
00:26:36I'm not really in the mood to talk about all that
00:26:38Um
00:26:39Can we get a break?
00:26:40I'm sorry, Chad
00:26:41I'm sorry, Chad
00:26:42I'm sorry, Chad
00:26:43I'm sorry, Chad
00:26:44I'm not really in the mood to talk about all that
00:26:46Um
00:26:47Can we eat?
00:26:49I'm starving
00:26:50Yeah
00:26:51Sam
00:26:52The mango salad
00:26:53Oh
00:26:54Hey, Sam, sorry about that
00:26:56She actually doesn't like mangoes
00:26:57Do you mind bringing out another play without them?
00:26:58He still remembers?
00:26:59I'll see what I can do about that
00:27:01Wait, didn't he?
00:27:03I'm sorry
00:27:04No, I'm sorry
00:27:05I'm sorry
00:27:06I'm sorry
00:27:07I'm sorry
00:27:08I'm sorry
00:27:09I'm sorry
00:27:10I'm sorry
00:27:11I'm sorry
00:27:12I'm sorry
00:27:13I'm sorry
00:27:14I'm sorry
00:27:15I'm sorry
00:27:16Wait, didn't you two just meet? How would he know that you don't like mangoes?
00:27:21How would he know that you don't like mangoes?
00:27:25Well, we actually go way back.
00:27:27And I know a hell of a lot more about her than just her preference for mangoes.
00:27:30He's my bodyguard. Of course, Oliver told him everything that he needed to know.
00:27:35I'll just pick around the mangoes.
00:27:41Okay, something's definitely going on with Elena and her bodyguard.
00:27:46What was that tonight?
00:28:11If I didn't know any better, I think you might be jealous of Chad.
00:28:15Maybe you're just seeing things the way you want to see them.
00:28:19You ever think about that?
00:28:21How could I forget?
00:28:23Right, you shattered my heart.
00:28:26Just save it.
00:28:29Just go home.
00:28:30You have funeral preparations to make anyway.
00:28:31I'm sorry, Elena.
00:28:38I was just trying to give you a better life.
00:28:41I didn't think it would hurt you this much.
00:28:47Elena!
00:28:49Elena?
00:28:50Dad, you're back.
00:28:52What's going on?
00:29:07What's going on?
00:29:08Hey, Sam.
00:29:10It's fine. I'm here with you, okay?
00:29:12You're safe.
00:29:14I had a dream about my dad.
00:29:16One second, he was smiling at me, and then the next.
00:29:30I just doubt myself sometimes.
00:29:34Do you really think that I can make a change in this industry?
00:29:37You're the strongest woman I've ever known.
00:29:49And I think that you can do anything that you set your heart on.
00:29:53Besides, I'm going to be right here the whole time supporting you.
00:29:56Protecting you.
00:29:59Protecting me?
00:30:02Do you really think I can trust you after what you've put me through?
00:30:06I don't know.
00:30:08Look, a relationship that is in the past.
00:30:13But I would protect you with my life.
00:30:15I'd die for you.
00:30:18I need you to understand that.
00:30:21So you would die for me, but you won't love me?
00:30:31So you would die for me, but you won't love me?
00:30:36Stay with me.
00:30:56So you wanted to keep things professional.
00:31:03You're my bodyguard.
00:31:06And I'm scared.
00:31:10Stay with me.
00:31:12So I can feel safe.
00:31:13If only I could stay by your side like this forever.
00:31:39What are we doing here?
00:31:40I'm going to teach you some basic self-defense techniques, you know, just in case.
00:31:45Always got to be prepared.
00:31:47What I mean is, in case I die first and you're still in danger, you can fight your way out.
00:31:57First case scenario.
00:32:03What would you do if someone had you against a wall like this?
00:32:07No, all the pushing in the world won't do anything.
00:32:14Try putting your hand on a more vulnerable place.
00:32:19That one there.
00:32:22Push as hard as you can.
00:32:26Push as hard as you can.
00:32:32All right, nice.
00:32:37All right, second scenario.
00:32:41What if somebody...
00:32:44...had you like this?
00:32:45What if somebody...
00:32:52...had you like this?
00:32:54It's just self-defense training. Don't let it get to you, Alina.
00:33:00What's your move?
00:33:01Um, I'd go for the more vulnerable part.
00:33:08Like, stomping on the...
00:33:11Very nice. You're a very fast learner, aren't you?
00:33:17Okay, third scenario.
00:33:21You ready?
00:33:23All right.
00:33:26What?
00:33:31Someone's got you like this.
00:33:33Starts choking you.
00:33:36Um...
00:33:37You gotta be quick.
00:33:38Like this?
00:33:41Use your hips.
00:33:43What?
00:33:45Use your hips to thrust me off of you.
00:33:46As hard as you can.
00:33:48Ace, are you okay?
00:33:53Did I hurt your leg?
00:33:54No.
00:33:55What does that sound?
00:34:00It didn't hurt my leg.
00:34:02It's fine.
00:34:03That was a good job.
00:34:05No, you're hurt.
00:34:06Let me...
00:34:07Fine.
00:34:08That was good work, though.
00:34:09Seriously.
00:34:10Ace, the new security equipment justified.
00:34:12Can you come check it out?
00:34:13Yeah, sure.
00:34:14Thanks, Josh.
00:34:16Good job today.
00:34:18Seriously.
00:34:25That sound was weird.
00:34:31Ace is hiding something from me.
00:34:34Hi.
00:34:36Alina, right?
00:34:37I'm Josh.
00:34:39I used to serve with Ace in the military, but now we're colleagues.
00:34:42She talks about you a lot.
00:34:43Hi, Josh.
00:34:46I'm sorry.
00:34:47Can I ask...
00:34:49Is there something going on with Ace's leg?
00:34:54Huh?
00:34:55Leg?
00:34:56No.
00:34:57Not that I know of.
00:34:58You know, Ace has been single for years now.
00:35:02Everyone here knows that there's someone he's never been able to forget.
00:35:06And that person is you, Alina.
00:35:08You're mistaken.
00:35:09He...
00:35:10He doesn't love me.
00:35:11At all.
00:35:12If you knew him, then you would know that he broke up with me three years ago.
00:35:15You know, I might be just an outsider, but I know Ace.
00:35:19Maybe some things aren't what they seem.
00:35:20Maybe some things aren't what they seem.
00:35:21All right.
00:35:22I gotta go check up on Ace and the new equipment.
00:35:23It was nice meeting you, Alina.
00:35:24Maybe some things aren't what they seem?
00:35:25What does that even mean?
00:35:26Yeah, thanks, Josh.
00:35:27Everything looks great.
00:35:28Okay.
00:35:29Ace.
00:35:30Lane asked about your leg.
00:35:31What'd you say?
00:35:32What'd you say?
00:35:33Don't worry.
00:35:34I didn't say worry.
00:35:35I didn't say worry.
00:35:36I didn't say worry.
00:35:37I didn't.
00:35:38I didn't say worry.
00:35:39You know, I didn't say worry.
00:35:40I was going to go check up on Ace and the new equipment.
00:35:42It was nice meeting you, Alina.
00:35:43Maybe some things aren't what they seem.
00:35:44What does that even mean?
00:35:45Yeah, thanks, Josh.
00:35:46Everything looks great.
00:35:47Okay.
00:35:48Ace.
00:35:49Alina asked about your leg.
00:35:50What'd you say?
00:35:52What'd you say?
00:35:53What'd you say?
00:35:56Don't worry.
00:35:57I didn't say worry.
00:35:58But honestly, man, I think she still cares about you.
00:36:03Maybe it's time you told her the truth.
00:36:05I appreciate your input, Josh, but I think I know what's best for Alina and I.
00:36:09Might want to deal with that prosthetic soon, though.
00:36:12It's overdue for a replacement.
00:36:13If you keep stalling, you're going to damage the nerves in your leg, man.
00:36:17You know that a new prosthetic would take about three weeks.
00:36:20I'm still on the job.
00:36:21I can't leave Alina alone.
00:36:23I think that would be very irresponsible of me, don't you think, Josh?
00:36:27Man, you're in hell romantic.
00:36:29You know that?
00:36:30Yeah, well, that makes one of us.
00:36:31Why don't you get the hell out of here, all right?
00:36:34Almighty God, in your mercy turn the darkness of death into the dawn of new life and the sorrow of parting into the joy of Heaven.
00:36:48Almighty God, in your mercy, turn the darkness of death into the dawn of new life and the sorrow of parting into the joy of heaven through our Savior Jesus Christ, who died, rose again, and lives forevermore. Amen.
00:37:10My deepest condolences. May your Father rest in peace.
00:37:14If your father knew that your reckless reforms would be tearing his company apart, you would never rest in peace.
00:37:21He was your brother. If you had even a shred of affection for him, you would never say something like that at his funeral.
00:37:28You know, Uncle Houston, I've always wondered, you've been far angrier about the health care reforms than my own father's murder.
00:37:35Could it be that you had something to do with his death?
00:37:37That is outrageous slander. How dare you accuse me of murdering my brother at his funeral?
00:37:54Sorry for your loss.
00:37:56I'm sorry for his death.
00:38:04Yes, I'm sorry for him.
00:38:07That's enough.
00:38:35This was my father's favorite.
00:38:37I got it for him for his birthday,
00:38:39but he didn't even get a chance to drink it.
00:38:52Right here.
00:38:54Not going anywhere.
00:39:03Good night.
00:39:03Don't go.
00:39:14Can you promise
00:39:16that you won't leave me again?
00:39:19I promise.
00:39:20I'll never leave you again.
00:39:22Josh said that there's someone in your heart.
00:39:27Someone that you can't forget.
00:39:29Is that someone me?
00:39:34Tell me, Ace.
00:39:35Yes.
00:39:42Yes.
00:39:44That someone is you.
00:39:46And it always has been.
00:39:47If you love me, then why did you break up with me?
00:39:50Look, it's been a long day.
00:39:51I don't think we should talk about it.
00:39:56I'm just going to end up hurting you.
00:39:57But you did hurt me.
00:40:00Three years ago,
00:40:01I waited for you to come back and marry me.
00:40:04And then you left me for another woman.
00:40:07You broke my heart.
00:40:09And then you just walked back in my life
00:40:11like nothing happened.
00:40:12No!
00:40:13No!
00:40:13No!
00:40:14No!
00:40:42Oh, my God, I drank too much.
00:40:59Can we sleep together?
00:41:02I'm hungry.
00:41:04I ate your breakfast.
00:41:06Last night, we...
00:41:10You were drunk.
00:41:12Very drunk.
00:41:13Took care of you.
00:41:14That was it.
00:41:15He's not gonna mention the kiss?
00:41:18Jerk.
00:41:21Well, thank you so much for taking such great care of me, Mr. Bodyguard.
00:41:36You've been far angrier about the healthcare reforms than my own father's murder.
00:41:41Haven't you dealt with that bitch, Elena, yet?
00:41:43She's starting to suspect I had something to do with her father's death.
00:41:46She's hard to handle.
00:41:48A bodyguard of hers is practically glued onto her.
00:41:51I can never get her alone and make any real progress.
00:41:53This will not do.
00:41:56She's been lobbying aggressively within the company.
00:41:58Some of the board are starting to support her reforms.
00:42:01If she keeps this up, I'll get pushed out of the company.
00:42:04What do you want me to do?
00:42:06The company's annual gala is this weekend.
00:42:10Elena will undoubtedly use it to rally more support from the board.
00:42:13What you're going to do is invite her to go as your date, and then you're going to propose to her publicly.
00:42:19Tell her she'll get more support from the board if she's married with a husband.
00:42:21We can use the engagement to shift public focus away from her form.
00:42:27Kill two birds with one stone.
00:42:28I like that.
00:42:28Exactly.
00:42:29The media will be there, and she won't reject you in front of everyone.
00:42:32There's no way she risks taking the company's stock prices again.
00:42:40Elena.
00:42:40Elena.
00:42:41I was hoping I would be able to escort you to the company dinner this weekend.
00:42:45I told you, Mr. Vegas would be chasing this person.
00:42:51He's been out for ages.
00:42:52His persistence is kind of impressive.
00:43:03Chad, I...
00:43:04Elena, trust me.
00:43:06I can help you win over a couple more board members for the health care reform plan.
00:43:14Yeah.
00:43:14Yes, I would love to go to dinner.
00:43:17Great.
00:43:18See you later.
00:43:18Mm-hmm.
00:43:38How do I look?
00:43:40You look beautiful.
00:43:41You know, I don't know if you have to dress so formally.
00:43:46What, are you jealous?
00:43:49I just don't think that that guy deserves all of this.
00:44:00Oh, speak of the double.
00:44:03Beautiful.
00:44:05Elena, we should get going.
00:44:06We're going to be late.
00:44:06And, uh, Ace, remember your place.
00:44:11Okay, there, sport?
00:44:12You're the bodyguard.
00:44:15So make sure you keep a professional distance between you and your employer, yeah?
00:44:19Elena's health care reform plan might have some short-term losses, but I believe the long-term benefits far outweigh the small drawbacks.
00:44:43Forget about that for a moment.
00:44:44What we're really curious about is how far you two have gotten.
00:44:50Given the company's current PR crisis, announcing a wedding might actually help repair its image.
00:44:56Elena, Chad seems like an excellent match.
00:44:59Oh, um, Mr. and Mrs. Hans, you're mistaken.
00:45:04Chad and I are...
00:45:04Thank you for your blessing, and we'll seriously consider it.
00:45:11Our company has faced challenges recently.
00:45:14But, on this special night, our new CEO, Ms. Elena Pearson, would like to say a few words.
00:45:27Before Ms. Pearson says anything, I have a surprise for her.
00:45:34I have a surprise for her.
00:45:36Elena, I have loved you for so long.
00:45:44Will you marry me?
00:45:54Marry him!
00:45:55Marry him!
00:45:57Marry him!
00:45:58Marry him!
00:45:59Marry him!
00:46:01Marry him!
00:46:02Marry him!
00:46:04Marry him!
00:46:05Chad, stand up.
00:46:06What are you doing?
00:46:07I don't know.
00:46:09Come on, let's go.
00:46:10We're leaving.
00:46:14What the hell are you doing?
00:46:31Storming out like that in front of all those guests.
00:46:33You've realized how bad you're making the company's image look.
00:46:35Oh, really?
00:46:36So what, you're going to just marry that guy to save the company's image?
00:46:39That's ridiculous.
00:46:40Who I marry is none of your business.
00:46:43We're over, Ace.
00:46:44You're just my bodyguard.
00:46:45You don't get to interfere with my life.
00:46:47You don't mean that.
00:46:49You don't love that guy.
00:46:50You barely fucking know him.
00:46:52Who I love is none of your concern.
00:46:56Don't pretend to care about me, Ace Atkins,
00:46:58when you push me away over and over again.
00:47:01Even if I'd said yes to Chad's proposal,
00:47:03you would have nothing to do with it and you couldn't stop me.
00:47:05Elayna, Elayna, why are you?
00:47:20Elayna, are you in there?
00:47:26Tell him you're busy.
00:47:27Make him leave.
00:47:30Tell him you're busy.
00:47:32Make him leave.
00:47:33I'll be out in a minute.
00:47:58Are you sure you're okay?
00:47:59Okay.
00:47:59Okay.
00:48:03Yeah, I'm fine.
00:48:04Just go.
00:48:22Ace, you're a bastard.
00:48:25Okay.
00:48:25I'm sorry about that, but that guy doesn't fucking deserve you.
00:48:28Oh, and you do?
00:48:29You abandoned me.
00:48:31We were supposed to get married.
00:48:34You have no right to say that to me.
00:48:37What do you think's going on here?
00:48:39Do you think that I don't love you?
00:48:42I mean, do you have any fucking idea?
00:48:43Elayna!
00:48:44Who's in there with you?
00:48:46How much what?
00:48:47What are you saying?
00:48:50How much what?
00:48:52What are you saying?
00:48:53Elayna!
00:48:55What do you think?
00:48:56What are you two doing in here?
00:49:02I could ask you the same question, Chad.
00:49:05You told me it was just a date to the gala, and then you go and pull that stunt out there?
00:49:09Proposing in front of everyone?
00:49:11What?
00:49:11Have you lost your mind?
00:49:12Elayna, I have been pursuing you for so long, and you've never rejected me.
00:49:17So that has to mean that you feel the same way.
00:49:20What?
00:49:22I haven't said anything.
00:49:23You need to go out and tell the people the truth.
00:49:25What's the difference?
00:49:26Hmm?
00:49:27Everybody already thinks that you're my fiance now.
00:49:30Since you've never rejected me, it's clear that you like me.
00:49:33It's only natural for us to be together.
00:49:35Hey, don't step closer.
00:49:37And who the hell are you?
00:49:38You're just a fucking bodyguard!
00:49:42Don't think I don't see what's happening.
00:49:44Acting all on your high horse, but deep down, you're just a slut sleeping with your bodyguard.
00:49:49Bravo!
00:49:58Bravo!
00:49:59Bravo, you two are the perfect pair of adulterers.
00:50:01Hey, this must be nice, huh?
00:50:02Living with your boss, sleeping with her on the side.
00:50:05Shut the fuck up.
00:50:06What's the matter, struck a nerve?
00:50:08Elena, you have the audacity to accuse me of damaging the company?
00:50:15Take a look in the mirror.
00:50:17You're the CEO sleeping with your fucking bodyguard.
00:50:19You're the real disgrace of the piercing group.
00:50:25You see that girl right there?
00:50:27There's no one in the world that I love more than her.
00:50:30You're not going to disrespect her.
00:50:31You show face around here again, I'm going to fucking kill her.
00:50:33Do you understand?
00:50:34Do you understand?
00:50:46You left me?
00:50:51Did you mean what you said?
00:50:54Nace, just tell me the truth.
00:50:56That's all it takes for us to start over.
00:51:02No, Elena, I can't be with you.
00:51:04I'm just a man with a prosthetic.
00:51:07I'm not whole.
00:51:08I'll never be enough for you.
00:51:09That was just impulsive.
00:51:11I shouldn't have said that.
00:51:11I'm sorry.
00:51:13You're lying.
00:51:15You still keep a photo of us in your wallet.
00:51:18You'd risk your life for me.
00:51:20You'd stay up all night to protect me.
00:51:22That is not just a bodyguard doing his job.
00:51:24That is something more, and you know it.
00:51:27Moments ago, right here, you said that you love me more than anyone else in the world.
00:51:32It's...
00:51:32Why won't you admit that you still love me?
00:51:38Elena, look.
00:51:44Look.
00:51:44I'm here to guard you.
00:51:48I'm your bodyguard.
00:51:51I shouldn't have crossed the line, and I'm sorry.
00:51:54Now, let's go.
00:51:57Stay away from me.
00:51:59Elena.
00:52:02I'm sorry, Elena.
00:52:04I can't hold you back.
00:52:05You deserve better than a broken man like myself.
00:52:08I can't handle one woman.
00:52:16Absolutely useless.
00:52:17That bitch has been screwed everybody the whole damn time.
00:52:19What do you want me to do?
00:52:21You're a pathetic freaking loser.
00:52:25I'm going to kill him.
00:52:27It's only a matter of time.
00:52:29If that's the case, there's only one option left.
00:52:32We want Pearson Group.
00:52:35We're going to have to eliminate her.
00:52:37Just like we did her father.
00:52:51You think you can fix everything with these little tricks?
00:52:55It won't work, Ace.
00:52:56It's your favorite.
00:52:58French toast.
00:52:59I've been up since six, making sure everything was perfect.
00:53:03I know it's been a while, so I hope it tastes like how you remember it.
00:53:22Oliver, what are you doing here?
00:53:25This is a signed first edition.
00:53:29Mr. Atkins went through several of his connections to track that down for you.
00:53:36And while you were at your meetings, he took it upon himself to redecorate your entire office.
00:53:43Do you really think gestures like these are going to make me forgive you?
00:53:54I just want you to be happy.
00:53:59Elena, whether you forgive me or not doesn't really matter.
00:54:03You have every right to hate me or you have every right to hate me and to push me away if that's what you want.
00:54:08But please, just don't let this anger eat away at you.
00:54:14It wasn't your fault.
00:54:15None of it was.
00:54:18It was mine.
00:54:20Don't think you've won me over.
00:54:21I haven't forgiven you yet.
00:54:25Don't think you've won me over.
00:54:27I haven't forgiven you yet.
00:54:30Go make me a coffee.
00:54:32I have a meeting soon.
00:54:33Miss Pearson, if I may say, Mr. Atkins cares for you deeply.
00:54:46And from the way you look at him, it's clear you feel the same way.
00:54:51So why not just be together?
00:54:54Hollomer, you don't understand.
00:54:56And every time I take a step forward, he takes two steps back.
00:55:00It's not that simple.
00:55:02Well, then maybe you should take the lead.
00:55:06Valentine's Day is right around the corner.
00:55:10Why not use the occasion to clear the air and finally talk it through?
00:55:16Hmm?
00:55:19Maybe.
00:55:26Maybe you should take the lead.
00:55:34The first gift I ever gave Ace was a motorcycle.
00:55:38And he loved it.
00:55:40Ace, stay here.
00:55:40I have a surprise for you.
00:55:46All right.
00:55:47And your order will be delivered tonight.
00:55:49Thank you so much.
00:55:50Thank you for shopping.
00:55:51What is Miss Pearson?
00:55:56Have a great day.
00:56:23Bye.
00:56:23Bye.
00:56:25Josh, Josh, Melinda's been taking.
00:56:50Activate the tracking system, get the cops involved.
00:56:53I'll go on after her.
00:56:55Who are you?
00:57:08Look, this is about the company's health care reforms that I promised you.
00:57:11I'm proposing a new plan.
00:57:13It's set to pass on Monday, so please don't kill me.
00:57:15Shut your mouth.
00:57:18This isn't about health care.
00:57:19You got it all wrong.
00:57:21What?
00:57:21What?
00:57:21My uncle hired you?
00:57:30He paid you to kill my dad?
00:57:32Ding, ding, ding, ding.
00:57:33Took you long enough to figure out.
00:57:35Daddy's little girl is so clever.
00:57:40Now sign the damn thing or I'll put a hole in your head!
00:57:43Okay, I'll sign.
00:57:48But you have to let me go after.
00:57:50Good.
00:57:51Sign it.
00:57:52Then you're free to go.
00:57:55He's lying.
00:57:56As soon as I sign, he'll kill me.
00:57:58Think, Elena.
00:57:59Think.
00:57:59Hurry up.
00:58:02Don't try anything stupid or break your legs before you can escape.
00:58:06No, I don't want to die.
00:58:20Please, Ace, save me.
00:58:24Now that this job is completed, I can never have to worry about money ever again.
00:58:31Good job.
00:58:32Good job.
00:58:32Drop your weapon or I'll blow her brains out.
00:58:54Ace, don't do it.
00:58:56Drop your weapon!
00:58:57Good job.
00:59:04Close your eyes and walk toward me.
00:59:07Go ahead.
00:59:21No.
00:59:22No.
00:59:23No.
00:59:24No.
00:59:25No.
00:59:25No.
00:59:26No.
00:59:27Are you crazy?
00:59:34He had a gun pointed at your head and you still went after him.
00:59:38I thought I lost you.
00:59:39It's going to be okay.
00:59:42I knew exactly what he was doing when he asked me to close my eyes.
00:59:47It's over.
00:59:47It's over.
00:59:52No.

01:03:10treated soon your leg may forever lose sensation
01:03:12today we're here to talk about my health care reform strategy you can't even handle your personal
01:03:25life the news came out in this company stock prices fell another five points and yet you still think you
01:03:32can push through reforms I'm the first to object Elena do you know how the other health care companies
01:03:38are mocking us they're saying that we're spineless idiots because we let a woman become the CEO
01:03:43uncle Houston if my scandals are causing such problems for the company how do you plan to
01:03:52account for the damages that your actions have caused like hiring someone to kill my father
01:03:59like hiring someone to kill my father
01:04:05that's slander your father was killed by an angry citizen who is dissatisfied with the current health
01:04:15care system what does that have to do with me
01:04:18kill that idiot Carter Pearson and the five million dollars is yours
01:04:26I testify that Houston Pearson paid me to kill Carter Pearson
01:04:33and then he paid me to try to kill Elena Pearson
01:04:36I hereby declare that Houston Pearson is immediately stripped of all his duties within this group
01:04:49you murdered my father and tried to kill me you need to pay for your crimes
01:04:54you need to pay for your crimes who do you think you are do you think you can kick me out of Pearson
01:05:00group I gave everything to this company
01:05:03why should you the daughter of that idiot Carter Pearson inherit this company
01:05:08what is wrong with increasing the claim denial rate
01:05:11this company's profits doubled because I developed AI technology that increased our claim denial rate to 40%
01:05:19the highest in the industry
01:05:20and that old fool Carter he dared to yell at me over this
01:05:25he deserved to die
