Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I was going to end a financial collapse. Help me, please.
00:00:11I will send more than $100,000,000 to your treasure. Use it well.
00:00:17Thank you. I will write a decree. When you die, you will choose the successor to inherit my throne.
00:00:30¿Escuchaste eso, Charlotte? Voy a ser rey. Ahora ven conmigo.
00:00:35¡A mí no me importa quién seas! ¡Yo no me casaré! ¡No contigo!
00:00:39¿Crees que Randall Douglas te protegerá? Cuando lo reporte al CEO, será despedido y perderá su poder. Incluso tú, Sinclairs.
00:00:49Perdona nuestra familia, Príncipe Frederick.
00:00:52Mira como tu propio abuelo necesita doblar su cintura por mí. Eres mía, Charlotte.
00:01:01Piénsalo. Cuando tenga la aprobación del CEO, heredaré el trono de mi padre. Y tú serás una reina.
00:01:08¿Obligas a mi esposa a casarse contigo delante de mí?
00:01:13Sí.
00:01:15Sí que estás cegado por tu ego y arrogancia, Frederick Bonbon.
00:01:18¡Ya cállate! Solo eres un campesino repugnante.
00:01:23¿Quieres pelear por Charlotte? Tú no puedes impresionar a la doctora Sniss.
00:01:28¿Qué tal si te unes a mi gabinete y te vuelves la secretaria de energía? Te daré el 10% del tesoro de la nación.
00:01:41Te daré el 10% del tesoro de la nación.
00:01:45¡El 10% del tesoro de una nación! ¡Eso es una locura!
00:01:51Pasó de ser estudiante de posgrado a ser líder de secretaria.
00:01:54¡Daria!
00:01:55¡Mi hija es la mejor!
00:01:57¡Yo acepto!
00:02:00Al final, soy la mejor investigadora del mundo.
00:02:05Solo te pido que hables bien de mí con tu futuro esposo, el CEO de Kingscorp.
00:02:11¿Oíste, Kingsley? El verdadero CEO está enamorado.
00:02:15¡Tú solo eres un chiste! El Banquete del Rey será mi ceremonia de coronación donde me convertiré en la mujer más poderosa del mundo.
00:02:25¿De verdad lo crees?
00:02:26¡Lo sé! ¡Sí!
00:02:28¡No te enojes, Kingsley! Solo admite que no eres bueno para mí.
00:02:33¡Nunca fuiste! ¡Nunca lo serás!
00:02:36¡Ja, ja, ja!
00:02:37¡Muy bien!
00:02:39Frederick Von Boon, Hannah Snees, Charlotte y yo iremos al Banquete del Rey para presenciar tu éxito.
00:02:46Será muy divertido.
00:02:50Para mí.
00:02:51Mira al hombre al que le confiaste tu futuro, Charlotte Sinclair. Un payaso que solo sabe alardear.
00:03:01En el Banquete del Rey os dejaré ambos atrás para que coman mi polvo.
00:03:09¡Adiós!
00:03:10Luego del Banquete, te desharás de esa basura de una vez por todas. Yo no quiero ensuciar mis manos.
00:03:19Hasta luego, futura esposa.
00:03:29Nos vemos en el Banquete del Rey. Tiemblen a mis pies.
00:03:33Me invitaron a dirigir la Cumbre G-28. ¿Algo más que quisieras comentar?
00:03:38Así es, señor. Quisiera ser anfitrión del Banquete en la Cumbre como tema de este año.
00:03:44En honor a usted.
00:03:46Solo soy un hombre de origen humilde.
00:03:48Y nadie hizo tanto como un hombre de su talla.
00:03:51Incluso salvó naciones del colapso financiero.
00:03:53Hasta el príncipe de Montasia necesita su apoyo para heredar el trono.
00:03:58Usted es el Rey de Reyes.
00:04:00No necesitas halagarme.
00:04:02Usted es el director. Puede ser el anfitrión.
00:04:05Ya hice la lista de invitados con el comité.
00:04:08Con cuatro clasificaciones.
00:04:09Usted en lo más alto.
00:04:15La invitación de oro del Rey es solo para usted.
00:04:18Solo hay una en todo el mundo.
00:04:20Genial. Ya tengo un plan.
00:04:32Bien hecho.
00:04:34También invité al príncipe Frederick y a su prometida, la doctora Hannah Sniss.
00:04:37¿Te encanta hacer planes para mí?
00:04:38Ah, es un placer.
00:04:39Tengo algunas sorpresas que planeo revelar en el Banquete del Rey.
00:04:50No me arruinas la diversión.
00:04:53Ah, claro que no.
00:04:55Me voy.
00:04:57Mi futura esposa quiere verme.
00:04:58Vamos a buscar al señor Foreman.
00:05:00Él nos invitará al Banquete del Rey.
00:05:02Por favor, ¿puedes hablar bien de mí cuando veas al CEO de Kingscorp?
00:05:05No tienes que preocuparte.
00:05:06Cuando vea al CEO en el banquete, haré que castigue a Kingsley por todas las faltas de respeto.
00:05:12¿No es él? ¿Kingsley?
00:05:14¿En el edificio de la ONU?
00:05:16Necesitas autorización de seguridad para entrar aquí y él no entraría ni en un millón de años.
00:05:20Señor Foreman.
00:05:22Doctora Hannah.
00:05:24El CEO dijo que fue a ver a su futura esposa. ¿Por qué no estás con él?
00:05:27¿Qué?
00:05:29¿Estás con él?
00:05:31¿Qué?
00:05:33¿Estás con él?
00:05:34¿El CEO está aquí? ¿No vimos a nadie subiendo aquí?
00:05:45Espera, ¿el CEO? No puede ser Kingsley, ¿verdad?
00:05:49Calma, señora Sniss. Se lo dije. Ese idiota no puede entrar al edificio. No es más que una rata.
00:05:55Hablando de...
00:05:57Aquí sus invitaciones.
00:05:59Hay cuatro tipos de invitaciones para el banquete.
00:06:03Las segundas más altas.
00:06:04Y solo hay dos.
00:06:06¿Solo hay dos?
00:06:07Claro, eres la futura esposa del CEO.
00:06:11Mereces una de plata.
00:06:14Junto con el Príncipe Frederick, el segundo hombre más poderoso en el banquete.
00:06:19Entonces, el hombre más poderoso con la invitación de oro será...
00:06:23El CEO mismo, por supuesto.
00:06:26¿Lo ves, Kingsley?
00:06:28Nunca te tratarán como a la realeza, como yo.
00:06:32Estoy por encima tuya.
00:06:41Te conseguí una invitación al banquete.
00:06:44Entra.
00:06:45Ya tengo la invitación de mayor rango.
00:06:54La invitación del rey.
00:06:57Eres muy dulce, pero no debes hacerlo.
00:07:00Prometí que mientras seas mi esposa, te protegeré.
00:07:04Este banquete nos va a meter en muchas dificultades.
00:07:07Confío que ningún idiota del banquete nos causará problemas.
00:07:13Elegí bien a mi esposo.
00:07:15Aunque fue casualidad.
00:07:16Primero, quiero darte esta invitación.
00:07:17Hay 18 invitaciones de clase comerciante de bronce.
00:07:30Eres muy capaz por obtenerla.
00:07:33Todos compiten por una de estas para poder ganar un contrato exclusivo en los Estados Unidos con el rey de Kingscore.
00:07:40Tengo el presentimiento de que tú lo impresionarás.
00:07:44¿Me estás diciendo que nuestro matrimonio es real?
00:07:48Siempre fue real.
00:07:59Nunca te fallaré, cariño.
00:08:03Debo estar listo para el banquete.
00:08:05Nos vemos allá.
00:08:14Hay tres tronos en el escenario.
00:08:26¿Qué quiere decir?
00:08:28Por supuesto, el dorado es para el rey de los CEO.
00:08:31Es la invitación del rey.
00:08:33Los dos tronos de plata son para los invitados de honor.
00:08:36Los de las invitaciones del caballero de plata.
00:08:39¿Y quién está calificado para sentarse junto al CEO?
00:08:42Seguramente es la ganadora más joven del premio Nobel.
00:08:46La doctora Hannah Sniss.
00:08:49No es tan buena.
00:09:02A tú de nuevo, Kingsley.
00:09:05Ya es suficiente, ¿no?
00:09:07¿Sigues acosándome y ahora te colaste al banquete del rey?
00:09:09Te dije que te alejaras de Charlotte.
00:09:12No te aprovecharás de nosotros, la millonaria lead.
00:09:16El banquete es para el rey de todos los CEO's.
00:09:20No es asunto tuyo que esté aquí.
00:09:22El CEO hará su propuesta hoy.
00:09:25Así que deja de meterte donde no te llaman.
00:09:28No es culpa mía que ya no te quiera.
00:09:30Además, para advertirte.
00:09:33Suponiendo que el CEO se case contigo,
00:09:35puede que solo estés...
00:09:38alucinando.
00:09:41La doctora Sniss es la invitada VIP de hoy.
00:09:45¿De verdad crees que no podremos hacer nada contigo?
00:09:48Si pudieras, ya lo habrías hecho antes.
00:09:50No estarían parados cerca de mí como Jenas.
00:09:52Ya lo veremos.
00:09:54¡Seguridad!
00:09:56Este humilde pudo entrar sin una invitación.
00:09:59¡Ságuenlo!
00:10:01¿Y cómo sabes que no tengo una invitación?
00:10:03Solo la elite más poderosa del mundo puede asistir.
00:10:06Tú tienes que valer al menos 10 millones para tener una invitación.
00:10:12¿En serio?
00:10:14¿Y esto qué es?
00:10:16¿Qué? ¿Cómo puedes tener una invitación comerciante de bronce?
00:10:20Él no puede tener 10 mil millones, ¿verdad?
00:10:23¿De verdad es VIP?
00:10:24Disculpe, señor. La invitación es legítima. Disfrute su noche.
00:10:37¿Alguien más quiere interrogarme?
00:10:39Déjame adivinar. Le quitaste la invitación a Charlotte Sinclair.
00:10:44¡Qué patético eres!
00:10:46¿Sabes cómo Charlotte Sinclair lo obtuvo?
00:10:48Por favor, dímelo.
00:10:50Durmiendo con ese anciano.
00:10:52Randall Douglas.
00:10:54A ti te pusieron los cuernos.
00:10:57Y muestras esa invitación muy orgulloso.
00:11:01¡De verdad que eres una vergüenza!
00:11:06¡Me das mucho asco!
00:11:08Tal vez estar aquí y ver la diferencia entre él y las verdaderas elites lo ayude a ver lo patético que es.
00:11:15Yo creo que ustedes son los patéticos.
00:11:17Solo porque estés aquí ahora no significa que seas digna de desafiarme.
00:11:23Y cuando te des cuenta de que no perteneces aquí,
00:11:28espero que puedas estar igual de tranquila y confiada.
00:11:33Soy una de las personas más importantes aquí hoy.
00:11:36¡Ya deja tus tonterías!
00:11:37¡Tú eres quien dice estupideces!
00:11:39¡Tú eres quien dice estupideces!
00:11:43¡Tú eres quien dice estupideces!
00:11:46¡Te dije que lo dejaras y te casaras con el príncipe Frederick!
00:11:51¡Pero tú le das tu invitación de bronce en su lugar!
00:11:54¡Aunque sea una invitación de bronce, solo hay 18 en toda esta ceremonia!
00:12:02¡Los demás no valen! ¡Es un honor contar con una!
00:12:05¡Espera que el CEO descubra que le dio esa apreciada invitación a un don nadie como Kingsley!
00:12:11¡Estará muy enojado!
00:12:13¿Ya lo olvidaste Hannah?
00:12:15Kingsley es mi legítimo esposo.
00:12:17¡Eso fue un falso matrimonio!
00:12:20¿Por qué no sería amor?
00:12:22Nunca me sentí tan segura como me siento en este momento.
00:12:26Soy testigo de su valor e inteligencia.
00:12:30Sé que es el indicado.
00:12:34Debo agradecerte por dejar a Kingsley.
00:12:37O jamás habría encontrado una esposa tan... perfecto.
00:12:44O jamás habría encontrado una esposa tan... perfecto.
00:12:48¿Qué es lo que tanto le ves?
00:12:53Estuve con él por 5 años y puedo asegurar que es un completo inútil.
00:13:00¿No te sientes mal por decir eso Hannah?
00:13:03No tienes vergüenza.
00:13:05Mira, no me interesa hablar del pasado, pero ya que empezaste...
00:13:09Yo financé tu investigación, te recomendé para trabajos y apoyé tu carrera en todo momento.
00:13:16¡Tú no lo hiciste!
00:13:18¡Fue el rey del Oseo!
00:13:20¡No mientas!
00:13:22Lo mantuvo oculto porque no quería destrozar tu ego tan frágil.
00:13:27Pero me seguías tratando como cualquier cosa, haciéndome de menos todo el tiempo.
00:13:32¿Aún no entiendes por qué rompí contigo, Kingsley?
00:13:35El éxito es algo que se tiene que ganar.
00:13:39No hay atajos para eso.
00:13:40No tienes estudios, ni dinero, ni casa, ni un auto.
00:13:47Lo poco que puedas pagar es porque vendiste tu vida al gobierno y fuiste al ejército.
00:13:52Y ahora te aprovechas de la gran Charlotte Sinclair.
00:13:59No tienes nada de respetable.
00:14:02Disculpa.
00:14:04Kingsley es mi esposo ahora.
00:14:06No tienes derecho a juzgarlo.
00:14:10¿Cómo te atreves, Charlotte Sinclair?
00:14:12Soy tu prometido real.
00:14:13Me insultas al afirmar que este payaso es tu esposo.
00:14:26Destruiré a los Sinclair.
00:14:30Destruiré a los Sinclair.
00:14:32No hay nada entre tú y yo.
00:14:35Deja de reclamarme.
00:14:38Charlotte es legalmente mi esposa.
00:14:40Si hay algún problema, es conmigo.
00:14:43Déjala en paz.
00:14:45Claro que hay un problema.
00:14:46Ella pertenece al príncipe.
00:14:48Mira, no importa cuánto te pague para ser su esposo falso.
00:14:52Me aseguraré de que nunca gastes ese dinero.
00:14:55Charlotte es un ser humano.
00:14:57No un objeto para subastar.
00:14:59Ella es quien elige a quien ama y se casa.
00:15:04Su acuerdo matrimonial con el príncipe Frederick beneficiaría a las familias.
00:15:09Sin mencionar que Charlotte es una mujer muy capaz.
00:15:14Es quien estuvo sosteniendo a su familia en declive ella sola.
00:15:18No necesita un fracasado como ese que depende del CEO para asegurar su futuro.
00:15:23Me encargaré de golpearlos hasta que...
00:15:26Suficiente. Está delirando.
00:15:27No hagamos una escena por este...
00:15:31Idiota.
00:15:33Charlotte, mejor piensa una buena explicación.
00:15:37De no ser así...
00:15:39Toda tu familia será aniquilada.
00:15:44Aquí, la llave de la habitación del príncipe.
00:15:47Asegúrate de ducharte antes de salir.
00:15:49No me faltes el respeto.
00:15:52No me faltes el respeto.
00:15:53No me faltes el respeto.
00:15:56No te enojes, perdedor.
00:15:59Afronta la realidad.
00:16:01Cuando el CEO me respalde, heredaré el trono de mi padre en Montasia.
00:16:06Luego le daré a Charlotte las riquezas y poder que tú no puedes.
00:16:09Pero yo soy el CEO que decidirá tu destino.
00:16:14Yo no quiero nada de eso.
00:16:16Si crees que el CEO estará de tu lado, sugiero que pienses un plan de respaldo.
00:16:22Estás destinado a perder.
00:16:25No heredarás el trono.
00:16:27Y para el final de la noche lo perderás todo y serás lo que más desprecias.
00:16:33Un campesino.
00:16:35Y tú eres un payaso.
00:16:37Ya sea antes, ahora o después.
00:16:39Pero aún no tienes nada comparado conmigo.
00:16:42Ya sea ahora o en él.
00:16:44Claro, no tienes futuro.
00:16:45No tienes futuro.
00:16:47¿No ves la invitación de bronce que tienes en tus manos?
00:16:50Fui yo quien se la dio a Charlotte.
00:16:52¿Y tú qué tienes?
00:16:54¿Eso crees?
00:16:55¿Cuánto caíste?
00:16:57¡Largo!
00:16:58¡Fuera!
00:16:59¡Largo!
00:17:00¡Largo!
00:17:01¡Largo!
00:17:03Me temo que no podrán enfrentar las consecuencias.
00:17:06Si me voy.
00:17:09Me temo que no podrán enfrentar las consecuencias.
00:17:12Si me voy.
00:17:13¿Quién te crees?
00:17:14Soy un príncipe.
00:17:16Pero él es la persona más poderosa de todo el mundo.
00:17:21Randall Douglas.
00:17:23¿Intentas ayudar otra vez?
00:17:25Te lo advierto.
00:17:27Voy a avisarle al CEO.
00:17:29Y te despojará de tu puesto.
00:17:32Entonces, debes saber que aún soy el representante del CEO.
00:17:37Tus amenazas vacías no son nada para mí.
00:17:40Olvídalos, príncipe Frederick.
00:17:42Solo nos contestan así porque piensan que son del mismo rango.
00:17:46Demostrémosles el poder que tenemos.
00:17:48Será todo un placer.
00:17:49Todo un placer.
00:17:50Son los VIP con invitaciones plata.
00:18:04La mujer más joven con el premio Nobel tiene la primera invitación de plata.
00:18:10¡Oh!
00:18:11El príncipe Frederick Bambu de Montasia es el segundo más poderoso de los invitados.
00:18:16Solamente superado por el rey de los CEOs.
00:18:20Mi invitación de plata significa que tengo la aprobación del CEO.
00:18:25Ahora soy un rey.
00:18:27Se acabó para todos.
00:18:29¿Cómo tienes invitación plata?
00:18:31Puedes inclinarte ahora a Randall Douglas.
00:18:34O te despedirán por ofender al futuro rey y a la futura esposa del jefe.
00:18:40Te lo advierto.
00:18:41Baja ahora.
00:18:43Con el poder que me han otorgado con esta invitación de plata,
00:18:49yo revoco la invitación de Kingsley.
00:18:52¡Afuera!
00:18:53¡Afuera!
00:18:54¡Afuera!
00:18:55¡Afuera!
00:18:56¡Afuera!
00:18:57¡Afuera!
00:18:58¡Afuera!
00:18:59¡Afuera!
00:19:00¡Afuera!
00:19:01¡Afuera!
00:19:02¡Afuera!
00:19:03¡Afuera!
00:19:04Eso que tienes ahora es un papel, Kingsley.
00:19:07¡Ya vete!
00:19:09¡Tú, bufón!
00:19:13De acuerdo a las normas del banquete, sí.
00:19:16Mi invitación de bronce queda invalidada si lo dice alguien con una invitación de plata.
00:19:23Y es cierto, no pertenezco aquí.
00:19:27Y esta no es mi invitación.
00:19:30Mi verdadero lugar está justo ahí.
00:19:36Ahí es donde debo sentarme.
00:19:40El asiento más prominente de todo el banquete.
00:19:44Kingsley, o sea, ¿que nos sentamos en el trono?
00:19:48Sí, mi amor.
00:19:50El único trono de oro.
00:19:53Eso es solo para el más poderoso de todos.
00:19:56El rey de Kingscorp.
00:19:58El hombre más rico que hay.
00:20:00Ese trono fue hecho para mí.
00:20:02Donde quiera que me siente será el trono del rey.
00:20:06¡No puedes mentirnos!
00:20:08El trono está destinado al único con la invitación dorada.
00:20:14El director Foreman se lo dio al propio CEO.
00:20:18Es imposible que lo tengas.
00:20:20¿Eso crees?
00:20:21Apuesto a que no viste la invitación dorada.
00:20:25No se puede fingir.
00:20:27Sí, si estás tan seguro.
00:20:29Enséñame tu invitación dorada.
00:20:32Parece que todos están interesados en mi invitación.
00:20:35Ok.
00:20:37Abran los ojos.
00:20:38Y miren.
00:20:39Esto.
00:20:49¿Qué?
00:20:50¡Imposible!
00:20:51¿Cómo es que tiene la invitación del rey?
00:20:54Eso tiene que ser una pesadilla.
00:20:56¡Pero Kingsley es un idiota!
00:20:59¡No es nadie!
00:21:01No hay forma.
00:21:02Eso es imposible.
00:21:03Solo el rey de Kingscorp puede tener esa invitación.
00:21:06Exacto.
00:21:07Solo el rey de Kingscorp tendría la invitación.
00:21:12Y ese...
00:21:14es exactamente quién soy.
00:21:17¿Estás loco?
00:21:19¿Finges que eres el CEO en su propio banquete?
00:21:23¿Puedes bajar?
00:21:24Eres una escoria.
00:21:25Vas a ensuciar el trono del verdadero rey.
00:21:27¡Cuida tus palabras, Frederick Monbun!
00:21:36¡Director Foreman!
00:21:37El anfitrión de este banquete.
00:21:46Justo a tiempo, Director Foreman.
00:21:49¿Falsificó la invitación del rey?
00:21:51¿Y ahora finges ser el rey de los Zeus?
00:21:55¡Con eso basta!
00:21:56¡Pobre Kingsley!
00:21:57Ahora molestas al Director Foreman.
00:21:59Le pediría que te perdonara, pero...
00:22:02Cruzaste muchas líneas esta vez.
00:22:04Estoy decepcionada.
00:22:06Me temo que estarás decepcionada el resto de tu vida.
00:22:09No me doyó dejarte, porque eres una basura.
00:22:12¿Pero qué te sucede?
00:22:13¿Eres el rey de los Zeus?
00:22:16¡Estás tan enfermo!
00:22:19Y patético.
00:22:20¡Ya basta!
00:22:21¡No te queda nada para fingir!
00:22:23¡Te dije que te calles!
00:22:24¡No me oíste, Hannah Smith!
00:22:28¿Qué?
00:22:30¿Cómo te atreves?
00:22:32Por favor.
00:22:34Tomando trono.
00:22:36¡Señor Kingsley Baldwin!
00:22:38¿Qué?
00:22:39¿Qué?
00:22:43Tomando trono.
00:22:45¡Señor Kingsley Baldwin!
00:22:47¿Qué?
00:22:48¡No!
00:22:51El?
00:22:52Es...
00:22:54El realmente es el CEO.
00:22:56El Rey de King's Corp.
00:22:58El hombre más rico del mundo.
00:23:00Es imposible.
00:23:02No, no, no.
00:23:03No puede ser él.
00:23:05No, no, no puede ser él.
00:23:08¡Yo le estaba llamando basura!
00:23:10Kingsley.
00:23:12Eres realmente el CEO de King's Corp.
00:23:15What?
00:23:16Is that important?
00:23:17Yes!
00:23:18If you had told you who you were, we would be together.
00:23:23Would you have thought, if I told you that I was the one who had been supporting you forever?
00:23:30You didn't miss me all this time.
00:23:34Dime, do you regret?
00:23:37Do you regret?
00:23:38Do you regret?
00:23:43No, no lo entiendes, es que yo, yo solo...
00:23:45Tú solo querías un Sugar Daddy.
00:23:48Ansías, poder y riquezas.
00:23:51Eres codiciosa.
00:23:52Eso te hace fea por dentro y por fuera.
00:23:55Por favor, Kingsley, dame otra oportunidad.
00:23:59No, ya no sirve ahora, si tú y yo terminamos.
00:24:02Es más, todo lo que te he dado, tus conexiones, dinero, se acabó.
00:24:09No hay vuelta atrás.
00:24:11No, no, no.
00:24:14Espera, alto, Kingsley, esto es un error.
00:24:17Vamos, pueden arreglarlo.
00:24:20¿Un error?
00:24:22¿No me habías llamado basura sin educación?
00:24:25¿Que no soy digno para Hannah?
00:24:27Pero me arrepiento.
00:24:29Lo siento, Kingsley.
00:24:31Ya es tarde para disculparse.
00:24:33Ahora lo que tienes y todo lo que alguna vez tendrás es arrepentimiento.
00:24:38¡Haz algo, Hannah! ¡Arréglalo! ¡Perderemos todo!
00:24:42Hannah Smith, no te impediré que persigas lo que quieres hacer.
00:24:47De hecho, te doy mi bendición.
00:24:50Pero, será sin mi apoyo.
00:24:52Veamos que tan lejos puedes llegar por tu cuenta.
00:24:56¡Se acabó!
00:24:58¡No tengo nada! ¡No, no tengo nada!
00:25:03En cuanto a ti, Frederick Bon Boom, necesitabas de mí para obtener el reino de tu padre, ¿verdad?
00:25:12Dime, ¿cómo es que pensabas echarme?
00:25:16Dime, ¿cómo es que pensabas echarme?
00:25:19Señor Kingsley, fue un idiota.
00:25:23¡Mierda!
00:25:24Yo lo insulté y lo siento.
00:25:27¡Lo cagué!
00:25:29¡Ay, Dios, perdóneme, por favor!
00:25:32Esto no puede estar pasando, no puede ser.
00:25:34¡Ay, Dios!
00:25:35¡Tiene que ser un error!
00:25:39¡Ay, no!
00:25:40Se suponía que heredaría el trono.
00:25:42¡Yo!
00:25:43¡El CEO lo aprobó!
00:25:44¡Soy el príncipe!
00:25:46¡Se suponía que sería el rey!
00:25:48¡No!
00:25:51¡No!
00:25:52¡Ay, Dios!
00:25:54Señor Sinclair, ¿qué fue lo que me dijo sobre no ser tan bueno para Charlotte?
00:25:59¡No!
00:26:00¡No!
00:26:01Yo...
00:26:02¡Dije que yo no era tan bueno para los dos!
00:26:10Mi querida y bella esposa, Charlotte Sinclair.
00:26:18¿Qué te parece si cambiamos la boda falsa por una historia de amor?
00:26:23Acepto.
00:26:28¡Yo lo siento!
00:26:30¡Me arrepiento!
00:26:32¡Dejé escapar a Kingsley!
00:26:34¡Todo es culpa mía!
00:26:36¡Pude tenerlo todo!
00:26:38¡No!
00:26:39¡No!
00:26:40¡No!
00:26:41¡No!
00:26:42¡No!
00:26:43¡No!
00:26:44¡No!
00:26:45¡No!
00:26:46¡No!
00:26:47¡No!
00:26:48¡No!
00:26:49¡No!
00:26:50¡No!
00:26:51¡No!
00:26:52¡No!
00:26:53¡No!

00:33:20All they would tell me is that they found internal bleeding after they brought him up here
00:33:25and he had to be rushed into surgery.
00:33:30It's okay.
00:33:35Hey.
00:33:38Remember what Mom used to say?
00:33:41If things are going untowardly one month...
00:33:45They're sure to mend the next?
00:33:47Exactly.
00:33:50It's gonna be okay, right?
00:33:52Yeah, it's gonna be okay.
00:33:54I promise.
00:34:01What's up, Beastie?
00:34:03I got these guys free drinks as a Sonic Goodwill.
00:34:06It's delicious.
00:34:07You want me to bring you that, boss?
00:34:08No, I don't want anything from that cursed place.
00:34:12Are you sure?
00:34:13I thought for sure you might want something to calm your nerves after losing that many followers.
00:34:17I mean, everyone saw the video from this morning.
00:34:29Um, my lawyers are handling it and it was an accident.
00:34:33End of story.
00:34:34Sounds like the story is just beginning, right?
00:34:37You probably should contact Izzy.
00:34:40She's really good with these type of things.
00:34:43Are you Monty O'Hara's daughters?
00:34:44Can we talk about the insurance stuff later, please?
00:34:45We're not insurance.
00:34:46But we're here to help.
00:34:47Which one of you is Izzy?
00:34:48Who wants to know?
00:34:49You need to come speak with Grant at least.
00:35:04You sent us there to clear your name, it.
00:35:06Exactly.
00:35:07That's why I brought her here.
00:35:08You brought her here?
00:35:09Because the board saw her video, and they want to fire you.
00:35:11They can't stop it.
00:35:13It's too bad.
00:35:14You ?
00:35:15We're not義like.
00:35:16You sent us there to clear your name.
00:35:17They can't fire me. My dad built this company.
00:35:20They can and they will on the grounds that you acted against the well-being of the company.
00:35:26Your little stunt has gotten out of hand.
00:35:30What stunt?
00:35:31That video went all the way up the board of directors. You need to delete it now.
00:35:36People deserve to know what you really like. A self-serving corporate bully.
00:35:41If you hadn't ambushed me with your camera and chased me to my car,
00:35:46your father wouldn't be in the hospital. Think about that.
00:35:49Okay, I can't believe it. I am out of here.
00:35:51Okay, just...
00:35:53Okay.
00:35:56What if I get him the best medical coverage? Then will you delete the video?
00:36:02You owe him that care.
00:36:06You think he's getting out of hand now?
00:36:08What do you think will happen if he doesn't make it?
00:36:11Honestly, bad press for a couple weeks.
00:36:15And then people will forget about it.
00:36:18So you, not me, you are the one to gain from this.
00:36:23You said the board of directors saw that video?
00:36:26That means they saw you hit an innocent bystander.
00:36:30How happy will they be when this goes to court?
00:36:34You didn't learn that from Jane Austen.
00:36:36I did.
00:36:37I did.
00:36:39But it also helps that I have a master's degree in public relations.
00:36:43I will drag this out for months.
00:36:46You provide the best care and if you're lucky you won't receive a court summons.
00:36:50Okay, Izzy O'Hara. I tell you what. You delete the video and then agree to never again speak out against me or G&G Corporation as a whole.
00:37:07And in return, your father can keep his farm.
00:37:15What do you mean, keep his farm?
00:37:17Please.
00:37:20Now, if you notice, he hasn't made any payments on it in the last six months.
00:37:29Go ahead and skip to the last page.
00:37:33Please.
00:37:34Which will show you that it's headed to foreclosure.
00:37:36I'll figure it out with the bank.
00:37:43G&G Corporation owns Dreamland Community Bank.
00:37:49I can stop this from happening.
00:37:52But you're going to have to earn it.
00:37:57You're a beast.
00:37:59Good luck with your reputation.
00:38:02I will see you in court.
00:38:06You have to stop her.
00:38:10She is insufferable. I cannot work with her.
00:38:13The board of directors is meeting right now.
00:38:15We'll figure something else out.
00:38:23Better medical care.
00:38:31Hey.
00:38:32Where are you?
00:38:33What's going on?
00:38:34Izzy, that's getting worse. I'm getting worried.
00:38:36Okay, I'm on my way.
00:38:48Better medical care.
00:38:51The best.
00:38:52All right, then.
00:38:53I'll help you restore your reputation.
00:38:54In exchange, you give my dad back his farm paid in full.
00:39:07But if he doesn't make it, I will spend my life making sure he gets justice.
00:39:11Fine.
00:39:12But I keep the farm until my follower count passes 10 million. Deal?
00:39:25As long as you do exactly as I say.
00:39:26As long as you do exactly as I say.
00:39:27I don't trust you.
00:39:28And I don't trust you.
00:39:29So it's either a yes and you get your followers back.
00:39:33Or I will see you in court.
00:39:39Deal.
00:39:40Is he?
00:39:41Mm-hmm.
00:39:42Good morning.
00:39:43Dad.
00:39:44How is he?
00:39:45We stopped the brain bleeding surgery.
00:39:46The internal injuries aren't that bad.
00:39:47He should be okay.
00:39:49Thank you so much.
00:39:50Just you and your whole team.
00:39:51Also, thank G&G.
00:39:52They're taking care of everything.
00:39:53When will he wake up?
00:39:54We're just going to keep him sedated a little longer.
00:39:55Just until he's more stable.
00:39:56Okay.
00:39:57Okay.
00:39:58Okay.
00:39:59Okay.
00:40:00Good morning.
00:40:01Good morning.
00:40:02Good morning.
00:40:03Dad.
00:40:04How is he?
00:40:05We stopped the brain bleeding surgery.
00:40:06The internal injuries aren't that bad.
00:40:07He should be okay.
00:40:09Thank you so much.
00:40:10Just you and your whole team.
00:40:11Also, thank G&G.
00:40:12They're taking care of everything.
00:40:14When will he wake up?
00:40:17We're just going to keep him sedated a little longer.
00:40:20Just until he's more stable.
00:40:21Okay.
00:40:22Thank you so much, Doctor.
00:40:23So, everything went well last night?
00:40:26Maybe.
00:40:29Seems like they did the right thing.
00:40:32Something like that.
00:40:35Did Dad ever tell you he helped me pay for my college tuition?
00:40:39No.
00:40:40Why do you ask?
00:40:42Because there was something he didn't tell me.
00:40:47What does this mean?
00:40:49I thought he owned the farm.
00:40:50Is there something I have to take care of?
00:40:55Ready, Miss O'Hara?
00:40:57I love you, Dad.
00:41:01Well, I'm here.
00:41:03I heard things have improved for your father.
00:41:06You're welcome, by the way.
00:41:08Thank you for doing what was expected.
00:41:11Sure.
00:41:12So, why haven't you deleted the video?
00:41:16If I take it down now, it'll only cause more drama.
00:41:20Now is not the time to cover up mistakes.
00:41:24We need to focus on you, and getting you offline is how we'll start.
00:41:29You do know how social media works, right?
00:41:35Right now, you're toxic.
00:41:38So, anything you say online will feel insincere.
00:41:42However, it isn't what we say or think that defines us.
00:41:46What we do.
00:41:48You come up with that yourself?
00:41:51It's Jane Austen.
00:41:53Of course it is.
00:41:55And she's right.
00:41:57Words and thoughts don't amount to anything if our actions can't back it up.
00:42:01And what do your actions say about you?
00:42:04They say that I am not about to take business advice from your little romance novel.
00:42:16Fine.
00:42:18If you don't cooperate, I don't have to do anything.
00:42:21I will be with my family if you change your mind.
00:42:34Well, you're back early.
00:42:40He won't listen to me, which means I don't have to do anything.
00:42:44Honestly, I'm relieved.
00:42:47I didn't like the idea of you hanging out with the guy who hit Dad.
00:42:50Yeah.
00:42:51I'm actually a little disappointed.
00:42:54I had some good ideas that really would have worked for him.
00:42:57Really?
00:42:58I thought he kidnapped you the way his goon hauled you out of here.
00:43:01Unless you're family, you can't go in.
00:43:05I'm family.
00:43:09Izzy, open the door!
00:43:11What are you doing?
00:43:13I'm going to talk to him.
00:43:21I know you're in there.
00:43:23Of course you do.
00:43:24I told you I'd be here.
00:43:26You also said you would come work for me, but I guess words aren't important.
00:43:31So what do your actions say about you now?
00:43:34They say that I don't have to do anything if you don't cooperate.
00:43:39Or did your near photographing memory miss that too?
00:43:42Open the door!
00:43:44Not when you're acting like this.
00:43:47If I may, I don't think intimidation is the best way to work with a partner in this situation.
00:43:52Oh no.
00:43:53No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:43:55She is not my partner.
00:43:57Just put on your streaming face and work your charm.
00:44:01And remember you're trying to redeem yourself to keep your job.
00:44:05All right, Beastie, let's do this.
00:44:08I am not your Beastie.
00:44:10Please try to work with her.
00:44:12Try.
00:44:14G&G uses wealth to cover up their mistakes.
00:44:18One lone article is hardly-
00:44:20Pull!
00:44:2278% of community finds G&G spokesmen insincere.
00:44:25Well, if you were a celebrity like me, you'd have haters too.
00:44:30Beastie has record fallout from followers dropping 3 million in less than 24 hours.
00:44:35Okay.
00:44:39Okay.
00:44:41Um, I get it.
00:44:43Get the picture.
00:44:45So, uh, what is your amazing Jane Austen plan?
00:44:54We need to get you our social media.
00:44:57Anything positive that you do now won't be effective.
00:45:00Because people will just interpret it as you're trying to save face.
00:45:04Like Jane Austen said, your good opinion once lost-
00:45:08Is forever lost. I know.
00:45:10Is lost forever.
00:45:14Great.
00:45:16So even Jane Austen has declared me doomed.
00:45:19You're not doomed.
00:45:21But you do need to show a fundamental internal shift.
00:45:26Do you still work at the animal shelter?
00:45:33You're not doomed.
00:45:36So the shelter's starting its annual donation drive.
00:45:39Of course the numbers are going to bounce back.
00:45:41You're just used to the company remaining positive for so long you're forgetting that ups and downs are completely normal.
00:45:47Grant!
00:45:48I have a plan. I have this amazing new PR assistant.
00:45:50She's going to be helping with-
00:45:51Ah!
00:45:53Are you kidding?
00:45:54Phone off?
00:45:55My bar deal?
00:45:57No, a conference call with the board of directors is not the same thing as social media.
00:46:02Okay, you need to focus here and put in an effort to make a change.
00:46:06So, what do you need us to do?
00:46:09Stuff these envelopes so we can send them out and then come get me when you're done.
00:46:18Wow.
00:46:20Really, uh, rolling out the red carpet here, huh?
00:46:25Trust me, you're going to want that.
00:46:28Lick.
00:46:31No.
00:46:33You're losing subscribers because of one big terrible thing you did, right?
00:46:40And?
00:46:42And if you do one big thing to correct it, it's not going to win people over.
00:46:46They'll just see it as you trying to save face.
00:46:48We need to show them that you're a good person who makes good choices.
00:46:52That's right, we need to show them.
00:46:54And yet I'm here doing good deeds alone, with only you.
00:46:57And not even you think that I'm a good person, so...
00:47:02No.
00:47:04I don't.
00:47:05I think the only person you care about is yourself.
00:47:08I'm going to be the hardest person for you to convince, and so far, you're failing.
00:47:14Okay.
00:47:16That needs to be folded better, and I think you got this.
00:47:19You only care about yourself.
00:47:22It has to be licking envelopes.
00:47:28Too much work for you, huh?
00:47:30Licking envelopes is below my pay grade, and this is an animal shelter.
00:47:34So, I'd like to work with some animals.
00:47:37Okay.
00:47:39Come on, Cooper.
00:47:40Let's teach us an animal lesson.
00:47:45Okay.
00:47:47Come on, Cooper.
00:47:48Let's teach us an animal lesson.
00:47:50You didn't.
00:47:54He insisted.
00:47:58Come on, Cooper. Work with me, buddy.
00:48:00The reason we didn't have you working with animals today is because Cooper's the only one on schedule for a bat.
00:48:06And he doesn't like bats much.
00:48:08You could have...
00:48:10You could have told me that earlier.
00:48:13I have a spare volunteer shirt.
00:48:16I'll bear it back.
00:48:17Come on, buddy.
00:48:26You want a hand?
00:48:28Not from you.
00:48:29No.
00:48:30You deserve that.
00:48:32Okay.
00:48:34Okay.
00:48:35No.
00:48:36Cooper.
00:48:37Okay.
00:48:38Buddy.
00:48:39If things are going untowardly one month, they're sure to mend the next.
00:48:47More Jane Austen?
00:48:48I heard that one.
00:48:49I heard that one from my mother.
00:48:51It wasn't until after she passed away that I figured out she was quoting Jane Austen.
00:48:55Is that why you, uh...
00:48:56It was my way of keeping her close to me.
00:49:02Can't really think of anyone that's good enough to make up for when we lost her.
00:49:07But...
00:49:09We do the best with what we've got.
00:49:11Right?
00:49:14All right, Cooper.
00:49:16That'll do, buddy.
00:49:18Let's get you dried off.
00:49:19Come on.
00:49:20Come on.
00:49:34Well, that was a disaster.
00:49:38I bet my numbers are plummeting and the board is ready to drop me.
00:49:42Actually, the board just sent over their reports and they're pretty happy with how today went.
00:49:47How did the board know how today went?
00:49:48I can't post anything.
00:49:50But the animal shelter did.
00:49:56Okay.
00:50:11All right.
00:50:21What is the plan for today?
00:50:24You're looking chipper.
00:50:26Today should be so much simpler.
00:50:28It is a women's career workshop.
00:50:31Local businesses are donating their time and resources to help underprivileged women get career support.
00:50:36And Pierce's generously offered Charm to the location for the clothing drive.
00:50:39Okay.
00:50:41So, these are the donated clothes.
00:50:43They need to be sorted and hung.
00:50:45Do you have a preference?
00:50:47Do I have?
00:50:50No.
00:50:52No, I think maybe that you're wasting a valuable resource on hanging clothes.
00:50:59Hmm.
00:51:01Let's just see if this resource can even hang clothes.
00:51:03This is gonna be perfect on you.
00:51:10You're welcome.
00:51:13Oh, worn out already, huh?
00:51:15Yeah.
00:51:16Hey, at least the event's going fantastic.
00:51:19And one of those next?
00:51:21Beastie.
00:51:25Guess I'm not getting a drink then.
00:51:26No.
00:51:28Okay.
00:51:29Well, good talk.
00:51:30Uh, I guess I deserve that.
00:51:33Hey!
00:51:37Good job with the hanging.
00:51:38Okay, so offer a firm handshake, smile, and maintain eye contact.
00:51:51You know, first impressions are important.
00:51:53If you screw it up too badly, you'll be lucky to work with them ever again.
00:51:57Thank you, Mr. Beast.
00:51:58You're welcome.
00:52:00Do my ears deceive me, or are you offering helpful advice?
00:52:03I do have some good experience to offer.
00:52:06Yeah, but you're not so good at following it.
00:52:08Oh, come on.
00:52:09You didn't follow a single one of those tips the first time you came into Charmed.
00:52:13I shook Pierce's hand.
00:52:14Yeah, what first impressions did you leave him with?
00:52:16Okay, okay, alright, I see.
00:52:18So, I was checking the accounts earlier.
00:52:22Oh, great.
00:52:23How many followers did I lose today?
00:52:26None.
00:52:28I checked about an hour ago.
00:52:29You actually managed to gain a few followers.
00:52:33Seriously?
00:52:34Yeah.
00:52:36It's working?
00:52:37Yeah.
00:52:38Oh, my God.
00:52:42That was...
00:52:43That was weird.
00:52:44That was too much. I'm sorry.
00:52:45It was just surprising.
00:52:46Uh, you're right.
00:52:47I shouldn't have...
00:52:48I'm gonna go.
00:52:49I just didn't have you down as a touchy-feely type.
00:52:53No, you know what?
00:52:54We...
00:52:55We should celebrate, though.
00:52:56Right?
00:52:57I'm...
00:52:58Can I take you out to dinner?
00:53:00That might be too much.
00:53:01Come on.
00:53:02I mean, I didn't think any of this was going to work.
00:53:05And you proved me wrong.
00:53:08Come on, my tree.
00:53:09Well, this is a nice change.
00:53:23Your Austin ways are rubbing off on me.
00:53:28You say that like it's a bad thing.
00:53:31Well, her characters just take too long to tell you how they feel.
00:53:35I'd rather put it out there.
00:53:36Get to the point.
00:53:38I think there's something nice about taking your time to tell someone how you feel.
00:53:50You've been here before.
00:53:52Quite a few times.
00:53:54My dad was friends with the head chef.
00:53:56Well, then, what do you recommend?
00:54:01Oh.
00:54:03The salmon is surprisingly good, actually.
00:54:07And anything with the eel is a personal favorite.
00:54:10So, which one will you pick tonight?
00:54:14I think I'll actually let the chef surprise me in celebration of my followers finally forgetting about that little incident.
00:54:22Grant, about that.
00:54:24My follower count finally stopped dropping. We deserve to celebrate.
00:54:28Right.
00:54:30But now you need to get people back on your side.
00:54:34And the workshop was a success. I had a big hand in that.
00:54:38Yeah, you did good.
00:54:40So, what's the problem?
00:54:44You went over a few dozen people today.
00:54:47We need to branch out to millions.
00:54:50And, well, that can't be done until you fundamentally shift who you are inside.
00:54:56And you don't believe I can change because I'm a beast.
00:55:10I'm sorry I said that.
00:55:12Sorry you said it or sorry you believe it.
00:55:14No, I-I really do think you did good today.
00:55:19Could you even be doing this if I wasn't here?
00:55:22If you don't think I can change, then why do you even care?
00:55:24No, I do believe you can change.
00:55:26I want you to be better, but I can't do that for you.
00:55:28Oh, I am so sorry, it's Renee.
00:55:29Hey, everything okay?
00:55:31What?
00:55:33Really?
00:55:35Okay, yes, yes, I will be right there.
00:55:37Is everything all right?
00:55:38My dad's awake.
00:55:40Oh, I am so sorry, it's Renee.
00:55:43Hey, everything okay?
00:55:45What?
00:55:47Really?
00:55:49Okay, yes, yes, I will be right there.
00:55:53Is everything all right?
00:55:54My dad's awake.
00:56:07He's been asking for you.
00:56:10Hey, Dad.
00:56:12There's my girl.
00:56:13I was just telling you about the past few weeks.
00:56:17How did the grand opening go?
00:56:20Oh, it was so great, we had such a good turnout.
00:56:24I can't wait to get home.
00:56:27Don't you worry, you'll be back home in no time.
00:56:32Who's that?
00:56:34That.
00:56:36That is my new client.
00:56:39Izzy, be honest.
00:56:42He's the guy who hit you with his car.
00:56:44What?
00:56:48Renee.
00:56:49What?
00:56:50Don't worry, Izzy's forcing him to help us.
00:56:52Telephone please, Dr. Cobb.
00:56:55It's okay.
00:56:57It's okay.
00:56:59Dad.
00:57:01We should let you rest.
00:57:02So, how did the evening-
00:57:03Boss, how'd dinner go?
00:57:04How does it look like it went?
00:57:05I thought it went good.
00:57:06Now I'm not so sure.
00:57:08I'm the scum of the earth.
00:57:10I thought the media campaign was going well.
00:57:11Like, didn't you go out tonight to celebrate?
00:57:12You like her.
00:57:13What?
00:57:14No.
00:57:15No, I don't.
00:57:16I've never seen you so down over somebody who despises you.
00:57:19Despise?
00:57:20Hey, come on.
00:57:21You want some advice?
00:57:22Ignore her.
00:57:23It's so dumb.
00:57:24It's clever, but it's dumb.
00:57:25I'm not gonna-
00:57:26Jessie, any advice?
00:57:27Yeah, tell her how you feel.
00:57:28Okay, you're both terrible at this.
00:57:30Why don't you sign right here?
00:57:32I don't like her.
00:57:33I don't like her.
00:57:34What?
00:57:35No.
00:57:36No, you do.
00:57:37I don't-
00:57:38I've never seen you so down over somebody who despises you.
00:57:40Despise?
00:57:41Hey, come on.
00:57:42You want some advice?
00:57:43Ignore her.
00:57:44It's so dumb.
00:57:45It's clever, but it's dumb.
00:57:46I'm not gonna-
00:57:47Jessie, any advice?
00:57:48Yeah, tell her how you feel.
00:57:49Okay, you're both terrible at this.
00:57:52Why don't you sign right here?
00:57:58I don't do technology.
00:58:04He had roses.
00:58:16Johnny, I want your business.
00:58:19Well, at least you brought a paper contract.
00:58:26No, no, uh, I'm sorry about before.
00:58:30But I'm not trying to buy you out unless it's all of your flowers.
00:58:35What?
00:58:36I want to buy every rose that you have in the store right now.
00:58:40Is that a yes?
00:58:43Yeah!
00:58:44Oh, okay, alright, sorry right there.
00:58:45Sorry, alright.
00:58:46Sorry, alright.
00:58:47Sorry, alright.
00:58:48Sorry, alright.
00:58:49Sorry, I can't.
00:58:50Sorry, I'm sorry, man.
00:58:52Sorry.
00:58:53Sorry.
00:58:54I must have dazed off.
00:58:55So, about last night.
00:58:57Sorry, I must have dazed off.
00:59:00So, that last night...
00:59:03Girlfriend.
00:59:06We're not dating.
00:59:08Really? Because this article makes a pretty strong case that you are.
00:59:11Well, we're not.
00:59:12I can't be in a relationship with him.
00:59:14It would be unprofessional.
00:59:16Girls?
00:59:17This is honestly the last thing we need right now, Izzy.
00:59:19Are you seriously upset with me?
00:59:21No, I'm just...
00:59:22Girls!
00:59:23You okay, Dad?
00:59:25Get a father, get a...
00:59:27A piece, please?
00:59:28Of course, I'm sorry, Dad.
00:59:30Yeah, sorry.
00:59:32Would one of you go get me a pudding cup?
00:59:35Yes, I'll go.
00:59:41Sorry, Dad.
00:59:47Dr. Pearson, emergency, please.
00:59:49Dr. Pearson...
00:59:51No, no, no!
00:59:54We're good, we're good, we're good, we're good.
00:59:57We're good.
00:59:59Uh, hey.
01:00:01Hey.
01:00:03Who wants all this?
01:00:05Oh, this...
01:00:07is Roses for Relief.
01:00:10Cute.
01:00:11What is it?
01:00:12I made it last night.
01:00:13It's a...
01:00:14Oh!
01:00:14It's a charity.
01:00:16It's okay.
01:00:19Where people can donate to help, uh, hospital patients pay their bills.
01:00:23And then I will match every dollar donated and send out roses to cheer people up.
01:00:28You've gotten this many donations already?
01:00:33I may have triple matched to get things started.
01:00:36Hmm.
01:00:37I may have triple matched my own donation to get things started, but...
01:00:42This is gonna take off.
01:00:46I feel it.
01:00:49Here.
01:00:49Come, uh...
01:00:50Come with me.
01:00:58We'll be out of your way in a minute.
01:01:00We just wanted to drop these off for you.
01:01:02Oh, those are beautiful.
01:01:06Ah, thank you.
01:01:09Aren't you Grant?
01:01:11The guy that hospitalized that man?
01:01:14Ah.
01:01:15Leave the man alone, Alan.
01:01:19A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.
01:01:23Shakespeare.
01:01:24Hmm.
01:01:26A little Romeo and Juliet here, huh?
01:01:28Well, we are fans, yeah.
01:01:31Uh, uh, well, uh, thank you again for those beautiful roses.
01:01:35Of course.
01:01:35Really nice.
01:01:37I hope everything turns out okay for you.
01:01:41And you as well.
01:01:42Thanks.
01:01:43Thanks.
01:01:43Bye.
01:01:44Romeo and Juliet, huh?
01:01:46I'm impressed.
01:01:47Uh, near photographic memory.
01:01:50After you.
01:01:53I'll just put that here.
01:02:08That's the last of them.
01:02:09Can you even smell them?
01:02:12Here.
01:02:14Oh, they smell wonderful.
01:02:17Consider this my apology.
01:02:18Okay.
01:02:18Hey.
01:02:32Hey.
01:02:35Izzy.
01:02:35Hey.
01:02:36Hey.
01:02:37Come on.
01:02:38I...
01:02:39What's the matter?
01:02:40I thought you'd be happy about that.
01:02:43I am.
01:02:43The charity is great, but, um, there was an article in the paper about us, and now Renee
01:02:52thinks we're dating.
01:02:55Does she?
01:02:57Yeah.
01:02:59And she was really upset about it.
01:03:03Are you upset about it?
01:03:05I don't want to be some vanity news article.
01:03:15Izzy.
01:03:19What do you want?
01:03:22I don't know.
01:03:27Okay, well, um...
01:03:31Let's get some fresh air.
01:03:32Yeah?
01:03:33Yeah.
01:03:35I'm just helping Izzy with your phone case right now.
01:03:40I do not assault anyone.
01:03:43Don't...
01:03:44Okay, excuse me.
01:03:47That'll be enough.
01:03:49We're not releasing a statement today.
01:03:51Come on.
01:03:51Come on.
01:03:53Hey!
01:03:57Shit!
01:03:59I can't believe that worked.
01:04:07Oh, that was nothing.
01:04:09I've outrun crowds bigger than that before.
01:04:11Out of the frying pan.
01:04:23Out of the frying pan.
01:04:27Come on.
01:04:28My name's bookshop is just up ahead.
01:04:29So this is your sister's shop, huh?
01:04:40Mm-hmm.
01:04:41Well, this is a pretty cool place.
01:04:43Hey, have you ever played the bookstore game?
01:04:57It might be something fun to pass the time.
01:04:59Uh, no.
01:05:00I don't believe I have.
01:05:02How do you play?
01:05:02Okay, so I pick out three books that I think represent you, and then you pick out three books
01:05:09for me.
01:05:10Okay.
01:05:11So how do you win?
01:05:12Well, there's not exactly a winner.
01:05:14It's just a fun thing to do.
01:05:18But there could be a winner, right?
01:05:21Let's say, um, the first to get all three books.
01:05:25Yeah, but it doesn't have to be a competition.
01:05:27Okay, but today maybe it is.
01:05:29Five minutes and counting!
01:05:42I wouldn't take that one if I were you.
01:05:45Good thing you're not me.
01:05:54Uh, three, two, one.
01:06:17Oh.
01:06:19Just in time.
01:06:20Wow, are there any books left on the shelf?
01:06:25Oh, well, I have your three books.
01:06:27Rest are for me.
01:06:29Okay.
01:06:30Uh, which ones are mine?
01:06:32Okay, so...
01:06:35The Three Musketeers.
01:06:38Yeah, because you always have Jesse and Richard with you.
01:06:42You're like the Three Musketeers in real life.
01:06:44And then next is Treasure Island.
01:06:50Oh, I loved this book as a kid.
01:06:53I figured it fits your sense of adventure.
01:06:56And then last but not least...
01:06:59Here, so you can learn some new quotes.
01:07:05Northanger Abbey, are you ever going to stop pushing Jane Austen on me?
01:07:09Nope.
01:07:11All right.
01:07:12So, what about me?
01:07:19Oh.
01:07:21Yes.
01:07:22Uh, okay.
01:07:24There you go.
01:07:29Yeah.
01:07:30I chose that one because, like Dorothy,
01:07:33you just click your heels together
01:07:35and somehow everything magically works out.
01:07:40Wow.
01:07:41I wish that were true.
01:07:44The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde?
01:07:48Yeah.
01:07:48It's about these two guys who work together to solve crimes.
01:07:51It's like you and me.
01:07:52Have you actually read this book?
01:07:55No, but it's referenced all the time in movies and pop culture.
01:07:58Why?
01:07:59Okay, so this is about a scientist, Dr. Jekyll, who creates the serum, which transforms him into another man, Hyde.
01:08:08He's a murderer.
01:08:11Yeah, so I don't want to spoil it, but it's not exactly a happy ending.
01:08:15Somehow all the references make more sense.
01:08:20That's not what I meant.
01:08:21That's not us.
01:08:23I'm sorry, Izzy.
01:08:24But hey, you know, you should read this.
01:08:27It's kind of interesting.
01:08:29It shows how a person can have good and evil in them.
01:08:33Two books.
01:08:35That means I win.
01:08:35Oh, did it have to be three?
01:08:40Well, technically you said the first to get to three, so...
01:08:44I did say the first to get to...
01:08:47Lucky number three.
01:08:50And it's Jane Austen.
01:08:52And I chose this one because, like Emma, you are always looking for the good in people.
01:09:03Hello?
01:09:05Anybody here?
01:09:09It's just us.
01:09:14Izzy, we talked about this.
01:09:17I'm buying.
01:09:19Oh, good.
01:09:20No family discount, then.
01:09:27I don't think I can't see what you're doing.
01:09:29Buying books?
01:09:31She's not like other girls.
01:09:33No, she's not.
01:09:35If you're just using it.
01:09:38No, she's incredible.
01:09:41Okay.
01:09:42One more.
01:09:44So, Dad's been asking about the farm.
01:09:47I haven't been back there since before.
01:09:52Me neither.
01:09:54Well, the place is probably a mess.
01:09:57I don't want Dad to see it that way.
01:09:58Yeah, we better clean it up before we take him out there.
01:10:01How about next week?
01:10:03I can help.
01:10:05What?
01:10:08What?
01:10:09It's a farm, right?
01:10:11I mean, I can help clean it up.
01:10:13Hmm.
01:10:13What's that smell?
01:10:30Fresh air.
01:10:31Well, let's separate it.
01:10:36Let's separate it.
01:10:36Oh, hello.
01:11:00Good girl.
01:11:10Good girl.
01:11:10I don't want to do it.
01:11:12Good girl.
01:11:42Are you ready for your dad to get here?
01:11:53Everything feels just a little less terrible being back home.
01:11:59Including me?
01:12:01Maybe just a tiny bit.
01:12:05Maybe I should adopt the farm life.
01:12:08Mmm, you wouldn't like it.
01:12:11No, I don't know.
01:12:15What about you?
01:12:17You ever think about moving back?
01:12:20Sometimes.
01:12:23Why don't you?
01:12:25It's hard to get work around here.
01:12:29Suppose that's true.
01:12:30We've got no food.
01:12:40We've got no food.
01:12:53I'll tell you what.
01:12:58You go get washed up, and I will take care of dinner.
01:13:01All right.
01:13:02You do know it's too far for pizza delivery, right?
01:13:05What?
01:13:06I've ordered Chinese food before.
01:13:08Go.
01:13:09Go wash up.
01:13:09I got this.
01:13:10I promise.
01:13:10Good luck.
01:13:27So this is a farm.
01:13:29Yee-haw!
01:13:29Grant, there you are.
01:13:55Hey.
01:13:56Hey.
01:13:58Wow.
01:13:59You got cleaned up faster than I thought.
01:14:03So did you.
01:14:06What are you doing out here?
01:14:09Just getting dinner ready.
01:14:12Dinner.
01:14:17Come with me.
01:14:19What have you done?
01:14:27You said you were going to handle dinner.
01:14:28This is not all what I pictured.
01:14:30Well, I mean, it's not a top-grade sushi bar, but it has some rustic charm, right?
01:14:41Dinner is served.
01:14:44Wow.
01:14:45Thank you for showing me for showing me the farm today.
01:14:49Thank you for showing me the farm today.
01:14:50It has been...
01:14:52It's just what I needed.
01:14:55Thank you for letting me share it with you.
01:14:58I used to sit down.
01:14:58I used to sit out here when I was a kid and read until the sun went down.
01:15:05You can see why.
01:15:07It's beautiful, isn't it?
01:15:08It's amazing.
01:15:11This...
01:15:12This is the rich life.
01:15:15I mean it.
01:15:16I mean this...
01:15:16This is really living.
01:15:19Yeah.
01:15:19It's amazing.
01:15:21In vain I have struggled.
01:15:23It will not do.
01:15:25My feelings will not regress.
01:15:28You must allow me...
01:15:29To tell you how ardently I admire...
01:15:33And love you.
01:15:37Did I get it right?
01:15:41Something like that?
01:15:43Is he?
01:15:45Yes.
01:15:45Will you marry me?
01:15:47I know.
01:15:51I just said that.
01:15:53But truly, I mean if you're worried about what your sister and your whole family and the
01:15:57press are thinking, then let's get married and not have to worry about it.
01:16:04I can't believe what I'm hearing.
01:16:05I know.
01:16:05Me neither.
01:16:06Did you just propose to me for the sake of your online image?
01:16:10Yes.
01:16:10No.
01:16:11No.
01:16:11What?
01:16:12No.
01:16:12I didn't...
01:16:13And you brought the paparazzi to my house?
01:16:14No!
01:16:15I can't believe this.
01:16:16You're just the same image-obsessed influencer you've always been.
01:16:21I thought you changed.
01:16:23No.
01:16:23I...
01:16:23I...
01:16:23Izzy, this is not me.
01:16:25Please.
01:16:25No.
01:16:26All right.
01:16:26Get out of here.
01:16:27Izzy, come on.
01:16:28Come on.
01:16:28How are you doing?
01:16:39Not so good.
01:16:42We were worried about you.
01:16:43It's not like you to disappear for a few days.
01:16:47I wanted to apologize about what I said at the hospital.
01:16:51About you and him and everything.
01:16:52Why?
01:16:55You were right about it all.
01:16:58But I still shouldn't have said it.
01:17:04I just felt so stupid for falling into another relationship where the guy cared only about
01:17:10his public image and the worst part is I don't know if it's because I should have known better
01:17:18or because I overreacted.
01:17:23If it's any consolation.
01:17:26I thought you guys were cute at the bookstore.
01:17:28Emma, I think I made a big mistake.
01:17:44Have you tried reaching out to him?
01:17:47I have a different idea.
01:17:49The Board of Directors is pleased with your handling of the situation.
01:17:53They are looking forward to seeing you recommit to your acquisitions and streaming campaign.
01:18:00Ready to get back at it, boss?
01:18:03Let's go buy some businesses.
01:18:05Get sworn by fans.
01:18:06Yeah.
01:18:12Okay.
01:18:13I really messed up.
01:18:29Hello, everyone.
01:18:31Izzy here over at Charm's Specialty Drinks.
01:18:34Do you know what she's doing here?
01:18:36It was only a few short months ago that my last dream ended with my dad going into the hospital.
01:18:43I am very pleased to say he is doing much better now.
01:18:48Say hi, dad.
01:18:50When Grant Beast hit my dad with his car,
01:18:55even though it was an accident,
01:18:57I thought he was the worst human being in the world.
01:19:03And that was wrong of me.
01:19:06As my mom and Jane Austen used to say,
01:19:09Angry people are not always wise.
01:19:14And I was angry.
01:19:17Really angry.
01:19:20Grant.
01:19:22I rushed to think the worst of you.
01:19:26And I'm sorry.
01:19:27You, the big-headed, privileged, corporate bully,
01:19:33proved to me that there is more to a person than their public personas.
01:19:39Without you, my dad wouldn't be sitting there right now.
01:19:41And when you came up with roses for relief,
01:19:47you proved to me that you were changed for the better.
01:19:51Get the car.
01:19:52So,
01:19:53in order to move forward,
01:19:56I'm deleting the live stream from my account.
01:20:00Thank you, everyone,
01:20:03for all of your love and support.
01:20:05Have a good one.
01:20:12They're just around the corner.
01:20:13You want to get them now?
01:20:14Okay.
01:20:16Izzy?
01:20:18Do you want to come?
01:20:20Yeah.
01:20:22Yeah, I...
01:20:23I just thought Grant might show up, you know?
01:20:31What's up, Beastie?
01:20:32How can I help you?
01:20:33I thought I...
01:20:35She already left?
01:20:37Oh, yeah, I'm afraid so.
01:20:39This is not how I expected this to go.
01:20:41How'd you expect it to go?
01:20:43I thought I'd come rushing in,
01:20:45right as she was finishing her video, you know?
01:20:47And she'd get all emotional,
01:20:49and we'd run into each other's arms
01:20:51like we were in a movie or something.
01:20:53A movie scene?
01:20:55Yes, like a movie scene.
01:20:58Because we are perfect for each other.
01:21:01Well, you know,
01:21:02it sounds to me like you want it to be too easy.
01:21:05What do you mean?
01:21:06Honestly, man,
01:21:07if she is perfect for you,
01:21:08then what are you going to do right now
01:21:10to show that she's worth it?
01:21:15Could I, uh...
01:21:16Could I maybe film here for a minute?
01:21:20No, go ahead.
01:21:21I thought you did a really good job
01:21:25on your live stream.
01:21:27It's weird to think
01:21:28that chapter of my life is over.
01:21:30Feels like I just read a good book.
01:21:33I'm glad I read it,
01:21:35but I'm sad it's over.
01:21:39Your life isn't like a book
01:21:40with a beginning and an end.
01:21:42Each day you live
01:21:43is a newly written page.
01:21:44You sound like Mom.
01:21:55What's up, beasties?
01:21:58I'm here live
01:22:00at Charmed Specialty Drinks.
01:22:03I'm here live
01:22:04at Charmed Specialty Drinks.
01:22:07Again, to
01:22:08show you how to live
01:22:10with a rich life.
01:22:14At least that's the lie
01:22:16that I always fed you.
01:22:18What is he doing?
01:22:19The truth is,
01:22:21uh,
01:22:22the life I live
01:22:24comes from feeding
01:22:26off those who are struggling.
01:22:31And G&G
01:22:32enabled me.
01:22:35They would send me
01:22:36lists of property they wanted,
01:22:38and I would go
01:22:39and buy the businesses.
01:22:40And I wouldn't take no
01:22:41for an answer.
01:22:43I, uh,
01:22:44I used all sorts
01:22:46of tactics
01:22:47to drive their business away
01:22:50and force them
01:22:51to shut down.
01:22:54I tried to do it
01:22:55to this wonderful place.
01:22:59But Izzy O'Hara,
01:23:02Izzy exposed my
01:23:03bullying tactics,
01:23:05and in my rush
01:23:06to get away from her,
01:23:07I hospitalized
01:23:10her father.
01:23:16What I've done
01:23:17is inexcusable.
01:23:23And,
01:23:23and I guess,
01:23:24uh,
01:23:25I guess what I'm trying
01:23:27to say
01:23:27is that I'm sorry.
01:23:30I'm sorry for how I've used
01:23:33all of you.
01:23:37And Izzy,
01:23:38if you're watching,
01:23:40I'm especially sorry to you
01:23:43and how I've treated you.
01:23:47And I want to thank you
01:23:48for showing me
01:23:51what it really means
01:23:52to live the rich life.
01:23:55There is so much good
01:23:56in this world,
01:23:57so much.
01:23:58And I want to be a part of it,
01:24:00which is why
01:24:01I am resigning from G&G.
01:24:05I'm not that person anymore.
01:24:09Just thank you.
01:24:10all of you
01:24:13for helping me see that.
01:24:22Go.
01:24:25Thanks, man.
01:24:26Yeah.
01:24:30What is this?
01:24:32You drink
01:24:33on the house?
01:24:34Thinking of calling it
01:24:35the beast?
01:24:38I'm honored.
01:24:38So,
01:24:40what are you going to do
01:24:42with all of this free time?
01:24:46Well,
01:24:47I think I'll start
01:24:49with a good read.
01:24:51A person who is not
01:24:53pleasuring a good novel
01:24:54must be
01:24:55incredibly stupid.
01:25:00Intolerably
01:25:00stupid.
01:25:03Right.
01:25:04Intolerably.
01:25:06Thank you for your apology,
01:25:08by the way.
01:25:09But I'm surprised
01:25:10that you lied
01:25:11on your live stream
01:25:12after everything
01:25:13that you've been through.
01:25:16Everything I said
01:25:17was true.
01:25:22You're not a beast.
01:25:23I did bond your proposal.
01:25:29What happened
01:25:30to that near-photographic
01:25:32memory of yours?
01:25:34I didn't exactly say no.
01:25:38A lady's imagination
01:25:40is very rapid.
01:25:42It jumps from
01:25:43admiration
01:25:44to love.
01:25:47From love
01:25:48to matrimony
01:25:49in a moment.
01:25:50Is that a yes?
01:25:57Yes.
01:25:57Yes.
01:26:10Wait a minute.
01:26:12That was the most romantic quote
01:26:14you could come up with.
01:26:15Mr. Darcy
01:26:17giving Caroline Bingley
01:26:20a backhanded compliment?
01:26:22Yes.
01:26:23Oh, listen here, bookworm.
01:26:24You're gonna have to do
01:26:25better than that
01:26:26if you want to impress me.
01:26:27Okay, I'm listening.
01:26:30Oh.
01:26:30Maybe something like...
01:26:34Maybe something like...
