00:00:00Father, what's the meaning of this?
00:00:24How could you do this to me?
00:00:25Well, good morning, Emmeline.
00:00:27I see you're in a great mood again.
00:00:28After everything I've done for you, the family, the company, this is how you reward me?
00:00:33Calm down and let me know what you're saying.
00:00:36Oh, so you're going to deny it?
00:00:37Denying what?
00:00:38I still have no idea what you're talking about.
00:00:40The rumors going around the company that you're stepping down in three months and you've already
00:00:43named Jonas your successor.
00:00:45So that's what this drama is about?
00:00:46Yes.
00:00:47Yeah, it's true.
00:00:48That's ridiculous.
00:00:50Jonas can't take care of himself, let alone a whole company.
00:00:52I mean, all he does is spend his money on partying and women and I'm the one who actually does
00:00:57the work.
00:00:57Yes, and that's why you're the chief operating officer.
00:01:00Look, I need you with your skill set in that role so that you can support your brother so
00:01:04that he too can succeed.
00:01:06Well, what if I make you an offer?
00:01:09One you can't refuse?
00:01:11I'm listening.
00:01:17I'm listening.
00:01:18Have a seat.
00:01:19Father, I am certain this is an offer you're going to appreciate.
00:01:26An offer I'm going to appreciate?
00:01:28You're getting married.
00:01:29Great, because we both know you're not getting any younger.
00:01:32What?
00:01:32No.
00:01:33I'm talking about a business proposal, not a marriage.
00:01:36Oh, okay.
00:01:37Well, what's your business proposal?
00:01:40Okay.
00:01:41So, what if I could secure a partnership with the Anderson Corporation?
00:01:45The Anderson Corporation?
00:01:46I've been trying to land that account for 10 years.
00:01:49It's impossible.
00:01:50It can't be done.
00:01:51I have my ways, Father.
00:01:53I just need you to trust me.
00:01:55Hmm.
00:01:56If it was anybody else, I would say no.
00:01:59But you're my daughter, and I trust you.
00:02:04But, just to let you know, I am going to be publicly announcing my retirement in three months.
00:02:10So you have three months to change my mind.
00:02:13Um, thank you, but I was hoping just to have a little more time.
00:02:17Three months and not a day more.
00:02:21I have sent out a million proposals at this point, and I still have no response.
00:02:45Mail for Mr. Baleen Kestrel?
00:02:53Yes, thank you.
00:03:03Who is it?
00:03:05Yes, Cynthia, what do you want?
00:03:07I've got mail from the Anderson Corporation.
00:03:10I think they finally responded.
00:03:11What'd they say?
00:03:12Oh, I don't know, it's sealed.
00:03:13Don't just stand there, bring it to me.
00:03:23Oh my god, this is for Mr. X himself.
00:03:27He's asked me to come meet him at his private residence to discuss the terms of the contract.
00:03:31Oh my god, it's great news.
00:03:34I'll cancel the rest of your appointments for the afternoon.
00:03:37No, no, I don't think that'll be necessary.
00:03:40Why not?
00:03:41I'm not going.
00:03:43What do you mean you're not going?
00:03:52This is the big break you've been waiting for.
00:03:54I know, I know, but...
00:03:56Does something about this seem off to you?
00:03:59Off?
00:04:00What do you mean off?
00:04:01You've sent out a million proposals, and now suddenly we get a response from Mr. X himself?
00:04:07I guess so, Miss Castro, but what do you have to lose?
00:04:11Honestly, you've been waiting for this.
00:04:14Might as well.
00:04:15Oh.
00:04:31Hey, you, Gardner.
00:04:35I'm here to meet Mr. X.
00:04:37Am I in the right place?
00:04:41Do I know you from somewhere?
00:04:44Yes, I imagine you do.
00:04:46I'm...
00:04:46Unimportant.
00:04:47I'm here to meet Mr. X.
00:04:49Is this the place?
00:04:50He's waiting for you.
00:04:53Just through that door and down the hall.
00:04:55Okay.
00:05:20I'm here to meet Mr. X.
00:05:50I don't know what kind of a sick game you're playing, but you should go back outside and
00:05:54keep raking up leaves.
00:05:56I don't think your boss would be too happy with you wearing his clothes and sitting on
00:05:59his expensive couch.
00:06:03You still don't remember me, do you?
00:06:06Remember you?
00:06:18No way.
00:06:19You're Jeff?
00:06:20In the flesh.
00:06:23You look like you've seen a ghost.
00:06:25You haven't answered my question.
00:06:27What's going on here?
00:06:29Well, you arranged a meeting with Mr. X, so here we are.
00:06:33I imagine this is all a little much for you to take in.
00:06:38This doesn't make any sense.
00:06:40I just saw you outside pruning plants, and now you're giving me a glass of whiskey.
00:06:47Is this a prank?
00:06:49Are there cameras?
00:06:52Cameras?
00:06:52I don't much care for intrusive technology, and I don't think it's a crime for a man to
00:06:58tend his own garden.
00:06:59I get a lot of satisfaction if I'm doing it myself.
00:07:02It's therapeutic.
00:07:04So, what you're trying to tell me is-
00:07:06I'm Mr. X.
00:07:08I'm the one you came here to see.
00:07:10Now, shall we dispense with the charades and get down to business, or would you care to
00:07:15be hysterical for a few more minutes?
00:07:16Bullshit.
00:07:17You're lying.
00:07:18Will you just admit it and stop playing games?
00:07:21You don't have to believe me.
00:07:22I'm not trying to convince you.
00:07:23The door's still open.
00:07:24You're welcome to leave.
00:07:35I've gotta say, this looks really good.
00:07:38One of the best proposals I've read in a while, in fact.
00:07:41I guess all the media I say about you is true.
00:07:44But the figures we're looking at here run to the billions of dollars.
00:07:48Are you sure you can manage such resources?
00:07:50But I have a detailed project plan, and I-
00:07:56I've looked at your plan, and I've had my team go through it as well.
00:08:00The simple truth is, your company does not have the resources to manage such a large project.
00:08:05On paper, at least.
00:08:07Your father has consecutively been turned down over 30 times in the past 10 years for this reason alone.
00:08:11What makes you think we'd accept your company's offer this time?
00:08:13You've been rejected so many times before.
00:08:15You've had all that information, and you've still invited me here.
00:08:19So that begs the question, what am I really doing here?
00:08:24Oh, Emma.
00:08:27You're always as intelligent as you are beautiful.
00:08:29Don't patronize me.
00:08:31Alright.
00:08:32I won't waste your time.
00:08:34I brought you here to make you an offer.
00:08:36One that could help you secure what you came for.
00:08:39Help me secure what I came for. You mean the contract.
00:08:50Did you come for something else?
00:08:52No. I just want to make sure we're on the same page.
00:08:55So what's the offer?
00:08:57Take it. Open.
00:08:58What is this supposed to be?
00:08:59You're a smart woman, Emma. I'm sure you can read what's on the paper.
00:09:00This is a marriage contract. Between you and me. Contractual terms of the marriage outlined in detail. Contract set to expire in three months. What makes you think I would ever, in a million years, accept something as a marriage?
00:09:15You think I would willingly sell myself into servitude just for a contract?
00:09:31Let's not play games, Emma. I feel they're a waste of time and I don't have much of it to spare. I'm guessing the same is true for you. I know the reason you're here. Or dare I say the motive behind your actions.
00:09:46What matters could that possibly be?
00:09:48Oh, I don't know. The fact that your father is publicly resigning from his position as CEO in three months. Or that he's naming someone who is not you as his successor.
00:09:58So, you thought that securing a massive contract like the Anderson Corporation could change his mind and finally give you the recognition you feel you deserve? Let me know if I missed something.
00:10:18How could you possibly know all this? Down to such detail.
00:10:21In this line of business, information is key. And I always have my way of getting the information I want.
00:10:28But, so you've been spying on me. Well, I should get a restraining order against you.
00:10:33I wouldn't call it spying when your family's business is always on the news. It's just simple deduction, putting two and two together.
00:10:40And how exactly do you plan to get a restraining order against a man who doesn't exist?
00:10:46What are you talking about? I know you. You're sitting right in front of me.
00:10:51What do you really know about me? Besides the fact that my name might be Jeff?
00:10:56Might be.
00:10:57The world knows me as Mr. X. You have a name and a face, but little else.
00:11:02I drove here, remember? I know where you live.
00:11:05I have a dozen homes across the state, none of which are in my name.
00:11:12But I think we're getting a little off topic here.
00:11:14Do you have a contract in front of you that can make all of your dreams come true?
00:11:18The question is, do you have the balls to take it?
00:11:24Of course, you could walk away, turn it down, and none of this will have happened.
00:11:30But remember, this is a one-time offer. So, decide.
00:11:39Can I at least take some time to go through it carefully and then make a decision?
00:11:46Smart woman, I'll give you three days to decide, after which the contract will be withdrawn.
00:11:55And nobody is to know about our little arrangement. Is that clear?
00:12:00Yes.
00:12:07God damn it. This asshole must have to be out of his goddamn mind.
00:12:11He wants to turn me into a slave, and for what?
00:12:14Are you hiding something from your baby sister?
00:12:17Hiding? I don't need to hide anything from you. You're always too intoxicated to see clearly anyway.
00:12:22Oh, Emma. You never miss an opportunity to have a go at me, do you?
00:12:27It's bad enough I always have pops on my back.
00:12:29On your back? You're clearly his favorite.
00:12:32I mean, he gives you everything on a gulp platter, and you just take it for granted.
00:12:36You think you have everything figured out, don't you?
00:12:39When in truth, you're just a scared little girl, running around, seeking validation from her daddy.
00:12:45What are you doing here, Jonas? I know you didn't just come to say hi. I have a lot to get done today.
00:12:49What? I can't just come check up on my little sister? You haven't even offered me a seat yet. Now that's not very nice.
00:12:56Sorry. I just have a lot going on. Have a seat.
00:13:02This is a nice office you have here. But, uh, remind me to give you a raise when I finally take over.
00:13:14Now, can you please tell me why you're here?
00:13:17Get down to business, you mean?
00:13:20Well, I'd like you to tell father that you're no longer interested in the position of CEO, and that you would gladly let me take the lead as your big brother.
00:13:29And why the hell would I want to do that?
00:13:38Maybe because I asked nicely? With a cute little smile on my face? I could do a sad face if you like.
00:13:45This is ridiculous. I don't have time for this. I have work to do. I don't have time for your games.
00:13:49Or maybe you don't have a shot at winning. And you might get yourself hurt.
00:13:54Is that a threat, big brother?
00:13:57A threat? I'm just trying to look out for you, kiddo. Politics can be a dirty game.
00:14:02Well, thank you so much for your concern, Jonas. I really appreciate it. But I've made up my mind. I'm not chickening out.
00:14:09You've always had a hard time listening to simple instructions, haven't you?
00:14:16See, here's what bothers me. Why do you even want it, anyway?
00:14:22I mean, you barely have enough time for yourself, let alone running the day-to-day operations of a huge company like this.
00:14:28And even if I'm CEO, you'll still have plenty of money to fund your extravagant lifestyle.
00:14:32So why do you want it?
00:14:36You know what? You're right. I don't have time to manage any of this.
00:14:41Which is why I want to make you second in command.
00:14:44You'll get to manage all the day-to-day operations and make the big decisions.
00:14:48You'll basically be the one in charge and I'll just be the pretty face of the company. How's that sound?
00:14:54You're out of your mind, Jonas.
00:14:55So, let me get this straight. You want me to do all the work around here and you just get to take the credit?
00:15:05Would that be too much to ask of my little sister?
00:15:08I don't know what delusional world you're living in, but you need to wake up. Because that's never gonna happen, Jonas.
00:15:14Let me ask you this. How do you envision this will end? You think I'd stand idly by while you take my fucking birthright?
00:15:23Well, when last I checked, we both had the same last name. I don't remember when that right was conferred to you.
00:15:30You think father will entertain this sick fantasy of yours? Just like when you were kids, he wants to just see you get tired out before he comes to console you.
00:15:39I'm just trying to save you from all that stress.
00:15:42Again, thank you for your concern, brother. It's deeply appreciated. But I'll have to pass on your offer.
00:15:48Fine. If you won't hear the voice of reason, so be it. But don't come crying to me when things get ugly.
00:15:57Dare I ask, is that a threat I detect, brother? It's not a very nice way to talk to your little sister, is it?
00:16:03You know, you're lucky I-
00:16:04Emma, you asked me to remind you of, um...
00:16:08Sorry, I didn't realize you-
00:16:09Alright, Cynthia. My brother here was just leaving.
00:16:12This isn't over, little sister. I'll be back.
00:16:21Ahem.
00:16:28Ahem.
00:16:30You had something for me?
00:16:31Oh, yeah, your, um, three o'clock appointment. You told me to remind you when our client is here. I tried to buzz you, but you didn't answer.
00:16:39Sorry, Cynthia. I guess I was just a bit distracted.
00:16:42Um, can we reschedule that meeting for later in the week? I'm just not in the right frame of mind right now.
00:16:48I'm sorry to hear that. Is it anything to do with you-know-who?
00:16:51My brother is just being his usual self. He's usually pretty hard to understand. I guess you can't choose your family, can you?
00:16:58Tell me about it. I also have an insufferable brother, who doesn't look as good in those jeans.
00:17:05What was that?
00:17:07Oh, um, nothing. Um, could I get you a coffee or a cold drink?
00:17:12Oh, you're sweet. But no, it's alright, Cynthia. I think I just need to be alone with my thoughts.
00:17:16Oh, yes, alright. Um, well, I will take care of the meeting, and I will get out of your hair. If you need anything, let me know.
00:17:39Father! We need to talk.
00:17:42Clearly you've forgotten your manners and how to knock on a door.
00:17:44Forgive me, Father. I just felt the matter was too urgent. Standing around knocking on doors felt like a waste of time.
00:17:52Right. Well, what is the matter, and why do you smell like a sewer rat?
00:17:58I've just been working hard all day, Father.
00:18:00Working hard inside a bar? Look, I don't have time for this. What do you want?
00:18:04It's funny how nobody around here ever seems to have time when I'm around.
00:18:08It's like I'm some disease that you all want to keep at arm's length.
00:18:11Jonas, you're a grown man. Stop carrying on like a child.
00:18:15And tell me what it is that you want.
00:18:18I'd like to know why do you insist on giving Emma the false hope that she could actually take my birthright?
00:18:25Seems pretty cruel. Even by your standards.
00:18:27I'll have you know she has every opportunity to succeed in running this company. If she lands the deal, I will honor my promise and hand over the reins.
00:18:37No.
00:18:40You can't do that.
00:18:42You can't do that!
00:18:44Oh, can't I? Just watch me.
00:18:47You can't do this!
00:18:53It's not fair! You can't do this!
00:18:55Wait. You're just trying to teach me a lesson, aren't you? To show me the error of my ways.
00:19:06Well, lesson learned. You didn't have to go this far.
00:19:10Jonas, come and sit down and we'll talk about this man to man.
00:19:16Castro Enterprises is a family business that has been passed down from generation to generation.
00:19:29It was my grandfather's and he passed it down to my father.
00:19:32My father then passed it down to me.
00:19:35But I had to earn it. He didn't just give it over.
00:19:38I had to work my butt off to prove myself to him and earn his respect.
00:19:42Just like your sister has done every single day.
00:19:43But what are you doing? All you are doing is spending our fortune every nickel, penny and dime.
00:19:49I mean, that was a $500,000 bill just on champagne alone.
00:19:53What are you spending that kind of money on booze for?
00:19:56Are you opening a winery?
00:19:58Jonas, I need you...
00:20:02I need you to start earning my respect and my trust, not squandering our fortune.
00:20:08Father, are you okay?
00:20:09I'm fine. Worry more about your own reputation rather than my health.
00:20:14You know what, Father?
00:20:16You're right.
00:20:18I'll do just that.
00:20:20Thank you for setting me on the right path.
00:20:23As always, I won't disappoint you.
00:20:27I promise.
00:20:28Who is it?
00:20:29Ms. Castro, I have you a coffee with two sugars.
00:20:31You're the best. And I told you, you don't need to be so formal with me.
00:20:34Oh, yes, sorry. I keep forgetting.
00:20:35Bring me that coffee.
00:20:36No worries, Emma.
00:20:37Oh, I forgot to ask you, how do things go with Mr. X? He's obviously not a serial killer.
00:20:38No, he was something worse. He's a psychopath.
00:20:39I know.
00:20:42I'm sorry to hear that.
00:20:45Okay.
00:20:46coffee with two sugars. You're the best. And I told you, you don't need to be so
00:20:50formal with me. Oh, yes. Sorry. I keep forgetting. Bring me that coffee. No worries, Emma.
00:20:58Oh, I forgot to ask you, how do things go with Mr. X? He's obviously not a serial killer. No,
00:21:05he was something worse. He's a psychopath. I'm sorry to hear that. So does that mean you're
00:21:10not going to go ahead with the project? Sorry, one second. Who could this be?
00:21:16Mr. X sends a message. Time's up.
00:21:23Who is it? Is everything okay? Speak of the devil.
00:21:27Oh.
00:21:28How do you ever expect me to sign this? Do you really think I'm that desperate?
00:21:49I have to be very careful. Even one excess drop could kill her.
00:22:03There. Dumb. Now what were you saying, my dear?
00:22:09First of all, I am not your dear. And second of all, do you really expect me to sign this?
00:22:14It's like selling myself into slavery. Are you listening to me? Is this a joke to you?
00:22:21I can hear you. And yelling is not going to help me hear you any better.
00:22:27Yes, that contract in front of you is the equivalent of selling yourself into slavery.
00:22:31Because I will own you for the duration. But you're under no obligation to sign it.
00:22:37You could walk out of here right now and nobody would stop you.
00:22:41So, the fact of the matter remains, you have a decision to make.
00:22:46Fox, check it.
00:22:59Fine. I'll do it.
00:23:03Fantastic. I knew you had it in you.
00:23:06But, can I just make one request?
00:23:09A request?
00:23:12I don't know if I'll like this. But go on.
00:23:14Well, the contract stipulates that I have to publicly agree to be marrying a common gardener, not Mr. X.
00:23:23Yes, I remember putting that in. What about it?
00:23:26Well, just if you could give me some time to convince him.
00:23:30He's stubborn, but I think I can bring him around eventually.
00:23:34This could be problematic.
00:23:35But I'll grant it. You have 14 days to convince your father. But no other requests will be granted.
00:23:47Now, shall we proceed?
00:23:59What do you get out of this, anyway? Is it some kind of payback or revenge or just a sick thrill?
00:24:06Well, I guess you'll never know.
00:24:11Maybe one day I'll tell you.
00:24:12I'll tell you.
00:24:14It's done.
00:24:37Are you happy now?
00:24:38Happy? This is a mutually beneficial arrangement. So don't act like you just did me a favor.
00:24:45Here, let me give you a hand with that.
00:24:47I can do it myself. Thank you.
00:24:51You're just about done.
00:24:58There.
00:24:59I need to change my clothes. Can you at least turn around and close your eyes or something?
00:25:05I could.
00:25:06But I think we need to start getting comfortable with each other sooner rather than later.
00:25:10We're a happily married couple now, remember?
00:25:12It says so right on the certificate.
00:25:14But I guess...
00:25:16We don't have to get comfortable right now.
00:25:20I promise I won't stare.
00:25:22Is this the part where you've forced me to sleep with you to consummate our fake marriage?
00:25:32I did not force you to do anything.
00:25:35But if I wished for you to fulfill your marital obligations, I would expect you to do so with a smile on your face.
00:25:44Do we have an understanding?
00:25:45Do we have an understanding?
00:25:52Someday we are going to be together.
00:26:07If you don't have an appointment, please sit down and I'll be with you shortly.
00:26:12I don't think I need an appointment.
00:26:14I pretty much own the company.
00:26:17I am so sorry, Mr. Castro.
00:26:19I didn't see you walk in.
00:26:21It's okay, sweetheart.
00:26:22Have you seen my sister around?
00:26:24I've been trying to get a hold of her.
00:26:26Um, no, but I can write down something for you and I can get it to her.
00:26:32No, it's fine.
00:26:33I prefer to have my meetings face to face, if you know what I mean.
00:26:37Just let me know when she comes by, okay?
00:26:40Yes, of course.
00:26:43You're Emma's personal assistant, right?
00:26:48So you know a lot about the things that go on around here, right?
00:26:51I mean, I do her schedules, I write her meetings, I get her coffee, I write her proposals while
00:26:59I draft him, and then I also, I run around all day making sure I am so sorry, Mr. Castro.
00:27:07I kind of start blabbing and then I can't stop and then it just...
00:27:10It's okay, sweetheart.
00:27:12You know, I do have a thing for intelligent women.
00:27:17Why don't I take you on a date?
00:27:20I'll take that as a yes.
00:27:22I'll call you.
00:27:24And remember, my sister can't know about this.
00:27:26Emma, where have you been?
00:27:51I haven't seen you in two days.
00:27:53Are you okay?
00:27:54You look terrible, no offense.
00:27:56Yeah, sorry.
00:27:57I just had a lot going on, that's all.
00:27:59Yeah, yeah, of course.
00:28:01Do you care to tell me?
00:28:03Right.
00:28:04Close the door.
00:28:05Yeah, close.
00:28:12All right.
00:28:13What I'm about to say, it has to stay between you and me, okay?
00:28:17It needs to be confidential.
00:28:18Yes, yes, of course, you can trust me.
00:28:20I know.
00:28:21Sometimes I feel like you're the only one I can trust.
00:28:24So, the last two days I was away, I got married and kind of signed my life away.
00:28:30Oh my god.
00:28:32How?
00:28:32Oh my god, I have so many questions.
00:28:34I bet.
00:28:35Let's hear them.
00:28:37Well, who did you get married to?
00:28:39Um, where did you get married?
00:28:42How?
00:28:44All I can say is I've married a gardener.
00:28:48And I even have a marriage contract to prove it.
00:28:51I'm supposed to make an announcement in two weeks' time, but no one can know until I've
00:28:55had a chance to speak with my father first.
00:28:57Yes, of course.
00:28:58Do you think he's going to approve?
00:29:00I don't think he is.
00:29:01Tell me about it.
00:29:04So, what else happened when I was away?
00:29:07Not much.
00:29:08Really, just your brother came in?
00:29:10Jonas was here.
00:29:11Yeah.
00:29:12He's always up to something.
00:29:14Did he say something to you?
00:29:16No, he didn't say anything to me.
00:29:22Well, out with it already.
00:29:24Did he do or say something while I was away?
00:29:26No, no.
00:29:27He pretty much just told me to let you know that he dropped by.
00:29:31That was it.
00:29:33Are you okay?
00:29:36Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.
00:29:37Um, did you want me to call him for you?
00:29:40I can let him know and maybe leave a note and he could...
00:29:43No, it's fine.
00:29:44I'm seeing him tonight for a family dinner, so whatever he has to say to me, he can say
00:29:49it then.
00:29:51Okay.
00:30:07You look as ravishing as ever, little sister.
00:30:22Did you do something with your hair?
00:30:23No, it's the same as when you saw it last time.
00:30:27But you look a little less drunk than usual.
00:30:30That's an improvement.
00:30:32Darling sister, might you by any chance be implying in front of father that I'm an alcoholic?
00:30:37Now that wouldn't be very nice, would it?
00:30:39I'm certainly not implying you're a workaholic, that's for sure.
00:30:42Enough!
00:30:43Can't we just have one meal in peace, please?
00:30:46Sorry, father.
00:30:54Father, if I were to tell you I'm getting married, getting married to a man, how would you feel
00:31:02about that?
00:31:03Well, that would be wonderful news.
00:31:05The best news I've heard in a long, long time.
00:31:08So, who is this mystery man?
00:31:16Well, don't get too excited.
00:31:20It's just a hypothetical question.
00:31:26You really had me going there for a second.
00:31:29I almost took you seriously.
00:31:31What dude would want to get married to boring old you?
00:31:35What did you just say to me?
00:31:36Father, did you hear what he just called me?
00:31:38Sure, go running to daddy.
00:31:41Maybe he'll tuck you in and rock you to sleep too.
00:31:44You're out of line, Jonas.
00:31:45Then why don't you put me in line, Emma?
00:31:47Or do you need daddy's help to do that too?
00:31:49No, I don't need anybody's help.
00:31:51Enough!
00:31:51Enough!
00:31:52Seriously, why must you always meet each other's throats?
00:31:55Emmeline, put the knife away.
00:31:57Jonas, you're excused from the table.
00:31:59Of course you'd take her side.
00:32:01I don't know why I bother coming to these dinners anyway.
00:32:08Sorry about that, father.
00:32:09That's all right.
00:32:10Now, you were going to tell me about your hypothetical husband.
00:32:14Oh, um, yes.
00:32:18Yes, mother.
00:32:19What does your hypothetical husband do?
00:32:23He's, um...
00:32:24It's okay, you can tell me.
00:32:26Is he an entrepreneur, a business owner?
00:32:29Uh, no.
00:32:30Well, you see, he's, um...
00:32:33A gardener.
00:32:36A what?
00:32:36He's a gardener.
00:32:52Why are we laughing, father?
00:32:54Your joke.
00:32:56It was hilarious.
00:32:56It's the funniest thing I've heard in a long time.
00:32:58Oh, well, you know me.
00:33:01I'm always trying to make you laugh.
00:33:02Yes, and I just, I just wish your mother would have been here to hear it as well.
00:33:07She would have just laughed her head off.
00:33:10So, what is it you really wanted to talk to me about?
00:33:14Oh, um, just that I've opened talks with the Anderson Corporation and, um, they seem quite
00:33:20receptive, so I think it's only a matter of weeks before the deal is sealed.
00:33:24Well, that is wonderful news.
00:33:25I'm very proud of you.
00:33:27You know, I actually thought this was an impossible undertaking, but you're doing it with exceptional
00:33:32ease.
00:33:34Clearly, the apple hasn't fallen far from the tree.
00:33:36Thank you, father.
00:33:37I learn from the best.
00:33:39Well, I would like to know, how did you manage to pull this off?
00:33:44Well, um, I was able to negotiate a mutually beneficial deal and show them how to increase
00:33:52profits, and it was smooth sailing from there.
00:33:55Very impressive.
00:33:56You are clearly going to make an outstanding CEO.
00:34:01Thank you, father.
00:34:14Cynthia Darlick, this is Jonas.
00:34:24How are you?
00:34:26Yeah, I'm good.
00:34:28I was just calling to see if you were free tonight for that date we were talking about.
00:34:31I can pick you up after work.
00:34:34Perfect.
00:34:35Hey, I could really use your help in grabbing a file from my sister's office.
00:34:39Could you be a sweetheart and do that for me?
00:34:43Wow, perfect.
00:34:44You're the best.
00:34:45I'll see you soon.
00:34:47All right, bye.
00:35:02Are you all right?
00:35:04You seem a lot quieter than usual tonight.
00:35:07Why do you even care?
00:35:08I still don't understand the point of this marriage.
00:35:14I mean, you haven't even touched me, let alone looked at me, since we've been sleeping
00:35:19in the same bed.
00:35:20We hardly ever talk.
00:35:21I mean, what is your deal?
00:35:26What is your deal?
00:35:31Touch me?
00:35:31I could have you anytime, anywhere I choose.
00:35:43I've just chosen not to exercise that right.
00:35:46Right, because you feel you own me?
00:35:49Well, the contract says I do.
00:35:52So why have you chosen not to?
00:35:56Because I'm not that kind of person.
00:35:58What kind of person are you?
00:36:00I mean, it's like you don't even exist.
00:36:04I do exist.
00:36:06You just don't know who I am.
00:36:09The only person I've ever wanted to genuinely see the real me.
00:36:14But you were too blinded by my poverty to see anything else.
00:36:18Well, and you think subjugating me will change that?
00:36:22I thought I was just doing this for revenge.
00:36:26God, you're so annoying.
00:36:27Why can't anything with you just be simple and straightforward?
00:36:31You might want to save that loud voice of yours.
00:36:34I think I finally decided to exercise my rights.
00:36:43I think I finally decided to exercise my rights.
00:36:46No, stay away from me.
00:36:48Don't touch me or I will scream.
00:36:52Scream?
00:36:53For who?
00:36:54The police?
00:36:55Miles away.
00:36:58And what would you tell them anyway?
00:36:59That your husband wanted to touch you?
00:37:01I mean it.
00:37:02Don't come any closer!
00:37:04Relax.
00:37:06I don't want to touch you.
00:37:09I just meant I want to hear what's bothering you.
00:37:13If you'll share it with me, of course.
00:37:16But now I'm supposed to believe you care about me after all the games you've been playing?
00:37:21I haven't given you any reason to distrust me.
00:37:23Why would I start now?
00:37:26God, I've ever been so confused in my life.
00:37:30Okay, fine.
00:37:31Look, I tried talking to my father about the idea of me marrying a gardener and he just laughed like it was a joke.
00:37:42I can't even imagine what his reaction would be if it came out in the news.
00:37:45He'd probably disown me.
00:37:47Hmm.
00:37:48Well, I can't do anything about your father.
00:37:53But I can give you another two weeks to try to convince him.
00:37:56But the contract won't change.
00:38:00Why would you do that?
00:38:02I have my reasons.
00:38:05Maybe someday soon, everything will make sense.
00:38:07What is taking this bitch so long?
00:38:21Got other shit to do.
00:38:37Yeah, I don't think.
00:38:48Okay.
00:38:53Okay.
00:39:07Gotcha.
00:39:30Hey there, beautiful.
00:39:32Hey.
00:39:34Did you get it?
00:39:35Uh, yeah.
00:39:37Here.
00:39:37You okay?
00:39:46What's wrong?
00:39:47Um, yeah, I'm fine.
00:39:49It's just, you're gonna help Emma, right?
00:39:53Yeah, of course.
00:39:55You know how my sister is.
00:39:57Strong-headed, just like my father.
00:39:58She never would have agreed to fast her up front.
00:40:02Okay.
00:40:03You know, there's a lot of space in the back.
00:40:11Here?
00:40:12In public?
00:40:14My sister will never know.
00:40:15Yes, yes, Mr. Rodrigo.
00:40:27Everything's in place to finalize the procurement.
00:40:29Thank you so much for your continual support.
00:40:31I...
00:40:31I am...
00:40:33I'm gonna have to call you back.
00:40:35Breaking news.
00:40:36Top executive marries a garden laborer.
00:40:39The business world is stunned by the rumors that the chief operating officer of Casserole
00:40:44Enterprises, one of the largest pharmaceutical conglomerates, is tying the knot with an ordinary
00:40:50working class man.
00:40:51Miss Casserole, you're in place.
00:40:53It has come shortly after it's announced that she was on the verge of sealing the company's
00:40:57largest contract in her company's history.
00:41:00Many question her judgment and the impact this union would have on her family name.
00:41:05And in other news...
00:41:07I trusted you.
00:41:09This is how you repay me?
00:41:10It wasn't me.
00:41:11I swear, you gotta believe me.
00:41:12Don't lie to me.
00:41:13You're the only one I told.
00:41:14How did the media get wind of it?
00:41:15Emma, I would never betray you.
00:41:17You gotta believe me.
00:41:19If you didn't leak the information, then who did?
00:41:22I don't know.
00:41:23I wish I knew.
00:41:34You bastard!
00:41:35How could you?
00:41:36How could you do this to me?
00:41:39Emma, you're home early.
00:41:41Is everything alright?
00:41:42No!
00:41:43Everything is not alright.
00:41:44How could you do this to me?
00:41:45After you gave me your word, you betrayed me.
00:41:49I'm sure I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:41:52But I'll be with you in just a sec.
00:41:54I have to finish up here.
00:41:57No one cares about your stupid plans, Jeff.
00:42:00Just tell me why you did it.
00:42:02Tell me!
00:42:03You should not have done that.
00:42:07You really should not have done that.
00:42:10What are you gonna do?
00:42:13Leak more stuff to the press?
00:42:14I say you already have a pretty good head start on that.
00:42:18What are you talking about?
00:42:20I don't know if this makes sense.
00:42:21Leak what to the press?
00:42:22Oh, you don't know.
00:42:23Let me refresh your memory.
00:42:28This is unexpected.
00:42:30But I assure you, I had nothing to do with this.
00:42:32You fucking liar.
00:42:33It has your fingerprints all over it.
00:42:35What would I have to gain from betraying your trust?
00:42:38What would you have to gain?
00:42:40I don't know, Jeff.
00:42:41I don't know why you do anything you do.
00:42:43But you have completely ruined my life.
00:42:46Emma, I...
00:42:50Hello, father?
00:42:56What am I gonna do?
00:43:12What the fuck am I gonna do?
00:43:14This is a complete disaster.
00:43:17How about you just calm down?
00:43:18Take a few deep breaths.
00:43:20It might not be as bad as you're making it out to be.
00:43:21Might not be as bad?
00:43:23Are you fucking kidding me?
00:43:24What am I gonna say to my father?
00:43:29Yeah, this looks grim.
00:43:30But I had nothing to do with this.
00:43:34How about instead of throwing accusations around,
00:43:36I just call the station
00:43:37and ask them who gave them the information.
00:43:40Even if you could do that,
00:43:41they would never tell you.
00:43:43Give me a sec.
00:43:45Who the hell are you texting?
00:43:47My accountants.
00:43:48So they can buy the new station
00:43:49and get me the information.
00:43:51You're bluffing.
00:43:52And even if you could do that,
00:43:53that would take forever to arrange.
00:43:55You'd be surprised how quickly you can get things done
00:43:57when you're Mr. X.
00:43:59This is a waste of my time.
00:44:00I just have to face my father
00:44:02and talk to him once and for all.
00:44:05Thanks for nothing.
00:44:06Done.
00:44:06Well, if it isn't the latest bride to be,
00:44:23I gotta be honest,
00:44:24I didn't see it coming.
00:44:25But the media seems to love it.
00:44:27You snake.
00:44:28How did you know?
00:44:29To be fair,
00:44:31I was surprised as well.
00:44:33I thought you would have had better tastes.
00:44:35But I guess you gotta lower your standards
00:44:36when you've been single for so long.
00:44:38Well, thanks for your concern about my love life.
00:44:41Why don't you mind your own business
00:44:42and butt out?
00:44:44Well, little sister,
00:44:45it became my business
00:44:46when you decided to embarrass the family name
00:44:48and drag us all through the mud.
00:44:50That's rich.
00:44:51Coming from the guy who's depraved lifestyle
00:44:53gets him in the media every weekend.
00:44:55What can I say?
00:44:57I'm the life of the party.
00:44:58You sound confident,
00:45:00like you think you had me beat.
00:45:02But I'm the one who's about to close
00:45:03the biggest deal in the company's history.
00:45:06You know our father better than anyone.
00:45:08He would never condone any of this.
00:45:10Plus, you're not the only one
00:45:11that can cut big deals for the company.
00:45:13Oh, you think you can cut a deal?
00:45:15You don't even know your way around the office.
00:45:17You'll soon find out I'm a man of many talents.
00:45:20Why don't you go see father?
00:45:22He's been waiting for you.
00:45:25Good luck.
00:45:29You'll need it.
00:45:35Father?
00:45:36Tell me it isn't true.
00:45:38Tell me this is just another media stunt
00:45:39designed to ruin this family's reputation.
00:45:42Father, I'm sorry.
00:45:43What the media is saying is true.
00:45:44I never meant for you to find out like this.
00:45:46Em, of all the men in the world,
00:45:48you choose a mere commoner, a gardener?
00:45:51Have you no self-respect?
00:45:52Have you no respect for this family?
00:45:54I know it doesn't make sense,
00:45:56but please, I need you to trust me.
00:45:57Trust you?
00:45:58You're actively bringing shame to this family.
00:46:00You expect me to trust you?
00:46:02Father, please.
00:46:03Who is this man?
00:46:05What is he doing to manipulate you like this?
00:46:07Are you being blackmailed?
00:46:09Are you pregnant?
00:46:09Once I seal the deal with the Anderson Corporation,
00:46:13I promise you it'll all make sense.
00:46:15I'm afraid that will no longer be necessary.
00:46:17What?
00:46:18What do you mean?
00:46:19While you were busy gardening,
00:46:21your brother came to me with a proposal
00:46:23that I could not refuse.
00:46:25A proposal?
00:46:27Open it.
00:46:27This is my client.
00:46:34What?
00:46:38Not anymore.
00:46:49But, Father, that's not fair.
00:46:51This is my client.
00:46:52Not anymore.
00:46:54It doesn't matter how Jonas got the account,
00:46:55it is his now.
00:46:56Emeline,
00:46:57you no longer need to worry
00:46:58about the Anderson Corporation account.
00:47:00No, please.
00:47:01Don't stop me now
00:47:02when I'm so close to the end.
00:47:04My decision is made.
00:47:05Jonas will now be the successor
00:47:06of Castro Enterprises.
00:47:08Oh, Father, please.
00:47:09Please, I'm begging you.
00:47:10Don't do this to me.
00:47:11Please.
00:47:12All right.
00:47:14I will give you one more chance.
00:47:15On one condition.
00:47:17Of course.
00:47:17Of course.
00:47:18Anything.
00:47:19I want to meet this gardener of yours.
00:47:20I want to know who it is
00:47:21that has stolen my daughter's heart.
00:47:24You can't do this, Father.
00:47:26You simply just can't.
00:47:28She would disgrace the family name
00:47:30and you would condone it?
00:47:31Jonas, how dare you speak to me like that?
00:47:32Have you lost your mind?
00:47:34No, Father.
00:47:35I've lost my patience.
00:47:37I am your son.
00:47:39I am your heir.
00:47:41It is my birthright
00:47:42to be your successor.
00:47:44Jonas, how dare you speak to me like this?
00:47:46I will decide who will
00:47:48and who will not run this cup.
00:47:51Father?
00:47:52Father, are you okay?
00:47:55Father, no!
00:47:57Father!
00:48:01Oh, Em.
00:48:02That sad look off your face.
00:48:04It's going to take a lot more than this
00:48:05to bring me down.
00:48:07Father, that's not funny.
00:48:08You shouldn't be speaking.
00:48:09You should be resting.
00:48:10What, you're going to start treating me
00:48:11like a vegetable now?
00:48:13The doctor said all I need to do
00:48:14is take those tablets
00:48:15and I'll be as right as rain.
00:48:19Oh, darling.
00:48:20You're looking more and more like your mother.
00:48:23She would have been so proud of you
00:48:24and the woman you've become.
00:48:26Just as I am.
00:48:30Where's your brother?
00:48:32Right here, old man.
00:48:37Glad to see you're still kicking.
00:48:39For a moment there, I thought you...
00:48:40Don't you fucking dare!
00:48:41You did this to him!
00:48:42So it's my fault he's lying in bed like this.
00:48:46I'm the one that put him in this state.
00:48:47Please, stop this bickering.
00:48:49I really can't cope with it anymore.
00:48:51Sorry, Father.
00:48:54Look, since I am temporarily unable
00:48:58to fulfill my role as the head of Castro Enterprises,
00:49:00I will need to appoint a temporary CEO.
00:49:05And Jonas, despite everything you have done,
00:49:08you have proven yourself a worthy candidate,
00:49:11so I will appoint you as CEO temporarily.
00:49:15What?
00:49:16No!
00:49:17M, this is not a permanent position.
00:49:20I will not make my final decision
00:49:21until I have met your man
00:49:23and seen the contract.
00:49:25Okay.
00:49:30Jonas, what are you doing here?
00:49:54Hello, Father.
00:49:55Are you feeling well-rested?
00:49:58Do you feel any better?
00:50:00No, not really.
00:50:01About the same.
00:50:04But, uh,
00:50:05why the sudden interest in my well-being
00:50:07that's a little out of character for you?
00:50:10That's hurtful, Father.
00:50:12Your health is of top priority to me.
00:50:15I noticed your pills were running low,
00:50:17so I decided to refill them for you.
00:50:20Would you like to have a look?
00:50:22No, just...
00:50:23just give them to me, please.
00:50:34Well, I should be getting out of your hair.
00:50:37Get well soon, Pops.
00:50:50Well, hey!
00:50:51Watch where you're going!
00:50:52Sorry, sister.
00:50:53I didn't see you there.
00:50:55I must have been absent-minded.
00:50:57You're being too nice.
00:50:58What are you up to?
00:51:00What do you mean,
00:51:00what am I up to?
00:51:01I just apologized for almost pushing you over.
00:51:04What are you doing in the father's room?
00:51:07Now I can't check up on my own father?
00:51:08What do you people take me for around here?
00:51:11Jonas?
00:51:24Jonas?
00:51:25Jonas!
00:51:25What are you doing here?
00:51:27And why are you in my seat?
00:51:29Ooh, didn't you hear?
00:51:31I'm in charge now, so technically, this is my seat.
00:51:35Do you actually need something, or did you just come here to gloat?
00:51:39Emma, Emma, you always like to get straight down to business, don't you?
00:51:43Well, let's get to it.
00:51:45You are obligated to report all findings and dealings to the company head.
00:51:49Yet, after looking through all your files, I can't seem to find anything on the Anderson Corporation.
00:51:56Why is that?
00:51:58Why do you want the details of the deal? So you can steal my client again like you did last time?
00:52:03Come on, Emma, don't be petty. I finalized a contract that was sitting on your desk for weeks.
00:52:09It's all in the company's best interest.
00:52:12Company's best interest? Or your best interest, Jonas?
00:52:15Well, I am currently the Chief Executive Officer, so my interest is the company's best interest.
00:52:23Of course, you never did tell me how you got the details of the contract in the first place.
00:52:29I never pegged you as someone who was scurrying around like a rat.
00:52:32I don't scurry you. I have people for that. It's the mark of a true leader.
00:52:37You know, you could really learn a thing or two from me, Emma.
00:52:40I knew it. I knew you had someone on the inside.
00:52:43Wait, that means that someone's-
00:52:48That fucking bitch!
00:52:50Emma, good-
00:53:02It's Miss Castro to you. Going somewhere?
00:53:05Um, yes. I have something to tell you that-
00:53:09Meaning to tell me what exactly? That you're a liar? A backstabber? That you've been conniving with my brother behind my back?
00:53:15What exactly were you meaning to tell me?
00:53:17Emma, I know it looks bad, but I never lied about any-
00:53:20Don't lie to me. Have some dignity. I trusted you and you betrayed me.
00:53:27I hardly think this is appropriate workplace behavior, little sister. I could have you sanctioned for assaulting my personal assistant.
00:53:35Your personal assistant. So that's what this is. You sold me out.
00:53:41Cynthia darling, wait for me in my office. I'll be with you shortly.
00:53:45Emma, it wasn't meant to be like this. I'm sorry.
00:53:52As CEO, I'm responsible for the well-being of all my employees. I'm sure you understand.
00:54:07Interim CEO. Let's see how long you can hold on to that position once father recovers, sweet brother.
00:54:13Oh, Emma. I plan to hold on to this position for a very, very long time.
00:54:32Hey. I really wanted to apologize for the way I treated you and that I doubted you.
00:54:40And I shouldn't have broken your plan. That was a stupid thing to do.
00:54:45I never thought I'd see the day that Emily and Castro would apologize.
00:54:49Well, don't get used to it. It's not gonna happen again.
00:54:55Actually, scratch that. I think... I think it will happen more often.
00:55:01Look, I know I haven't been the best fake wife to you, but you've been good to me.
00:55:07And you've been kind and patient and you didn't try and force yourself on me when you could have.
00:55:13Emma, you don't have to.
00:55:14Oh, please. Just let me finish, okay?
00:55:16This is really hard for me to say.
00:55:19But I also want to apologize for how I've treated you in the past.
00:55:23I've been self-centered and egocentric and I'm sorry.
00:55:27I'm sorry.
00:55:30It's okay, Emma. And just so you know, this isn't about revenge.
00:55:35What is it about? I mean, what do you stand to gain from his contract?
00:55:39I can't tell you. Not yet.
00:55:41I figured.
00:55:43Well, can you at least show me what you're painting? I never knew you were an artist.
00:55:48Hmm. There's a lot you don't know about me.
00:55:50I bet. So, can I see it?
00:55:54Want to come see?
00:56:00But... but why?
00:56:09It's beautiful, but why would you paint a picture of me?
00:56:13Well, I don't recall it being a crime to paint a picture of a beautiful and fascinating woman.
00:56:23Well, maybe I can see it when it's finished.
00:56:26Maybe.
00:56:28We'll see.
00:56:32Emma.
00:56:34I know you just... you didn't come all this way to apologize.
00:56:39And I know that look on your face.
00:56:42What's going on?
00:56:44So now you can read my emotions and know when something's wrong?
00:56:48Well, I think I've always been able to do that with you.
00:56:51You pat your lips every time you're worried.
00:56:55I also know that your father's fallen ill.
00:56:59And that your brother's taking control of the company.
00:57:02How do you know that? That hasn't even gone public yet.
00:57:04I have my ways.
00:57:07And I always keep a close eye on my assets.
00:57:10The question is, what are you going to do?
00:57:14At this stage? I don't know.
00:57:18My father said the only way he'd even entertain the idea of me getting married to a gardener is if he met the man first.
00:57:26But I know the contract I signed says that I can't do that, so I guess you could say I'm out of options.
00:57:31Hmm.
00:57:37That is a precarious situation.
00:57:40And it would void the contract.
00:57:45But I'll do it.
00:57:48What? What did you just say?
00:57:51I said I'll do it. I'll go with you to see your father.
00:57:54But why would you do that? That doesn't make any sense.
00:57:57All I can say is that in this respect, our goals are aligned.
00:58:02Oh, goals align? What goals are you talking about, Jeff? What goals?
00:58:08Don't worry about that now. Everything will make sense soon.
00:58:11We can go right now if you'd like. I'll grab my coat.
00:58:28Cynthia, darling. Why the long face? We should be celebrating my victory, not sulking.
00:58:32I should have never helped you.
00:58:34Your sister hates me because she thinks I betrayed her. And rightfully so.
00:58:39I didn't realize you were going to use that information against her and if I did, I wouldn't have helped you.
00:58:43All you care about is yourself.
00:58:45I think you've been well compensated for your efforts.
00:58:48A salary bump, a triple promotion. I'd expect you to be more grateful.
00:58:53I'm sorry. I'm grateful. But what's going to happen when your dad wakes up? Is it going to be the same?
00:58:59Who says my father's going to recover?
00:59:10What do you mean by that?
00:59:12Everyone keeps going on and on about how my father's going to recover and all the things that will happen.
00:59:17But my father has a very serious illness and he might not recover. And that's just a fact.
00:59:22How could you say that about your own father?
00:59:25I don't think I've said anything out of place.
00:59:26My father is very sick and he might be in bed for a very long time.
00:59:32And I'm sure that would definitely suit your agenda, wouldn't it?
00:59:35Are you accusing me of something?
00:59:37No, Jonah. I'm not accusing you of anything. I just think I chose the wrong side.
00:59:41And what side is that?
00:59:43Look, you're not the man that I thought you were. I heard stories, but I didn't think they were true, but clearly they are.
00:59:49And what stories are those? Tell me the tales of Jonas Castro.
00:59:57Jonas Castro? Well, Jonas Castro loves himself. He's an alcoholic. He's a womanizer. He's just pure evil. That's who Jonas Castro is.
01:00:08Look, I can't do this. I'm leaving.
01:00:16Where the fuck do you think you're going?
01:00:20Seems you've forgotten your place. Maybe it's time I reminded you.
01:00:25Please, let go. Jonas.
01:00:32You really think you can say whatever the fuck you want and get away with it?
01:00:35Look, I think you're drunk and I think you just need to get off me, please.
01:00:41Let me remind you, you were just a pawn in all of this. Before I came into your life, you were nothing.
01:00:45Please. Please, I'm sorry. Just, I'll forget about it and we can go.
01:00:50No, no, no, no.
01:00:51Blame.
01:00:52I think I need to teach you a lesson.
01:00:54I'll never forget.
01:01:01You seem pretty confident. I guess you've done a lot of stuff like this before.
01:01:05Not really. Any advice on approaching your father?
01:01:09Well, he already doesn't like you. So I guess just be yourself.
01:01:12Let's get this over with.
01:01:17Father?
01:01:19I'm here.
01:01:21You're not alone. I'm with my fiancé.
01:01:25That's you.
01:01:28Wait, you two know each other?
01:01:31Your father and I have met. It was a long time ago. I'm surprised he remembers.
01:01:36I never forget a face. Especially one as unique as yours.
01:01:41Wait, hang on. This doesn't make any sense. Someone needs to give me some answers.
01:01:46This man came to me a few years ago, asking for a private meeting to discuss a very important proposal.
01:02:11Answer.
01:02:12You're the man I spoke with on the phone?
01:02:16Yes, sir.
01:02:17It's not every day I have a meeting with a total stranger. But you said you had an interesting business proposal. So, what is it?
01:02:18Of course, sir. I understand perfectly. But I said I had an interesting proposal for you. It may not be exactly considered a business proposal.
01:02:22Young man, I don't have time for your silly little word games. So, you have fun.
01:02:24Five minutes to tell me what the proposal is, or I'll be fine with you.
01:02:25I'm fine with you.
01:02:26I'm fine with you.
01:02:27The other man I spoke with on the phone?
01:02:28Yes, sir.
01:02:29It's not every day I have a meeting with a total stranger. But you said you had an interesting
01:02:35business proposal. So, what is it?
01:02:37proposal, so what is it? Of course, sir. I understand perfectly. But I said I had an interesting
01:02:43proposal for you. It may not be exactly considered a business proposal. Young man, I don't have time
01:02:49for your silly little word games, so you have five minutes to tell me what the proposal is,
01:02:53or I will have you thrown out. Right down to business. I would like to ask for your daughter,
01:03:01or Emma's hand in marriage. I'm sorry. I think my hearing must be playing tricks on me. Could
01:03:14you repeat that for me, please? I said I would like your daughter's hand in marriage.
01:03:21So it seems like my hearing is fine. No, sir. I believe your hearing is still top-notch.
01:03:26So what makes you think I would go for such a ludicrous idea? Well, I didn't think you'd
01:03:31have a problem with it, since I am the heir to my family's billion-dollar fortune.
01:03:35Is that supposed to impress me? Anyone can claim to be anything these days.
01:03:45That's my family's name, our net worth. We operate several business enterprises,
01:03:50as well as doing philanthropic work. So? A union between your daughter and I would strengthen
01:03:55both our families, galvanizing our position in high society, making us a formidable force.
01:04:00I didn't think you'd have a problem with it. Well, I see you've done your research. But even if I
01:04:06were to give this union my blessing, I could never convince my Emmeline to marry someone that she
01:04:11didn't choose herself. Well, I believe that's where I come in. How so?
01:04:15So, how exactly do you plan on wooing my daughter? Well, in all honesty, sir, it's not a very good
01:04:29plan, but it's one that sets my heart at ease. What exactly are you talking about? I've not had
01:04:35much luck with women in this regard. They always seem to be after me for access to my money.
01:04:40I'm so sick of it. So I intend to disguise myself as a nobody.
01:04:46Are you suggesting that my daughter is after you for your money, like some pathetic little gold digger?
01:04:52No, no, sir. I just want Emma to get to know me for me, that's all.
01:04:58This is a ridiculous plan. It'll never work.
01:05:01I know. But I'm still willing to try. And if it goes south, no harm done.
01:05:06So what exactly do you want from me? Well, I was hoping you could put in a good word
01:05:10for me, but Emma can't know that you know who I am. Maybe you could say that I'm the son of an old
01:05:16friend. This is a ridiculous plan. I think you just need to leave. It's no secret that you yearn
01:05:20for your daughter to get married to someone worthy from high society. Please just consider the plan.
01:05:27How dare you presume to know me and what it is that I want? Get out!
01:05:32Thank you for your time. If you reconsider, please give me a call.
01:05:44How arrogant. Reminds me of my younger self.
01:05:56Wait, so hang on. What you're trying to tell me is...
01:05:59I've never been poor a day in my life. I just wanted you to see the real me. That's what
01:06:05I was trying to tell you that day in the restaurant. But you wouldn't hear me out.
01:06:08So you just created a fake marriage? A contract marriage? And why not move on to someone else?
01:06:15Contract marriage?
01:06:16But what if I hadn't signed it? What was going to be your next scheme?
01:06:20I told you. You're the only person that I ever wanted to see me for who I was.
01:06:25And it wasn't a sham contract. I would have kept my end of the bargain at the end of the three months.
01:06:34What if I hadn't signed it? What would have your next scheme, Dean?
01:06:37There was no next scheme because I knew you would sign it.
01:06:41How did you know that?
01:06:43Because I know you.
01:06:45Emma, you're willing to do whatever it takes to get what you want.
01:06:49Just like I am.
01:06:50You seem to know a lot about me.
01:06:54I really don't know what's going on here.
01:06:57But, Em,
01:06:58if you're willing to accept his marriage proposal,
01:07:02you can have
01:07:03the company.
01:07:06No, Father.
01:07:07There's no marriage proposal.
01:07:09Just a web of lies and deceit
01:07:12in this sick man's games.
01:07:14There is now.
01:07:15Emma,
01:07:18you're the only one I've ever wanted.
01:07:20The only one I love.
01:07:24I'm sorry I had to pretend to be someone I wasn't.
01:07:28But,
01:07:29if you are willing to make an honest man out of me,
01:07:32I promise,
01:07:33no more games or half-truths.
01:07:36Emma,
01:07:37will you marry me?
01:07:38Will you marry me?
01:07:49Jeff,
01:07:50you're a very curious human being.
01:07:53But,
01:07:54you have been very kind and caring to me over the last few months.
01:07:58Even though I've been a total bitch.
01:08:00I hate to admit it,
01:08:01but,
01:08:02I have grown fond of you.
01:08:04So is that a yes?
01:08:05Well,
01:08:06we've already been married for two months.
01:08:08Might as well give it a real shot.
01:08:12Yes.
01:08:18Oh.
01:08:19Oh,
01:08:20looks like I missed the family reunion.
01:08:22Guess my invitation got lost in the mail.
01:08:25No, Jonas.
01:08:25You're just in the nick of time.
01:08:27Your sister is getting married.
01:08:30Oh,
01:08:30that's wonderful news.
01:08:31I'm not finished.
01:08:33It is also my final decision
01:08:35that she takes over as CEO of Castro Enterprises
01:08:37and that you step down
01:08:39effective immediately.
01:08:41Like hell I will.
01:08:43I'm your son.
01:08:44No son of mine would swap out my medication
01:08:46for a placebo
01:08:48so that I would die faster.
01:08:50Yeah,
01:08:50I knew about that.
01:08:52I might be sick,
01:08:53but I am not senile.
01:08:54I didn't want it to come to this.
01:08:57I don't look something on your other choice.
01:08:59What are you doing?
01:09:01What the hell are you doing?
01:09:02That's out father.
01:09:03What are you doing?
01:09:04I'm doing what I should have done
01:09:06a long time ago,
01:09:07little sister.
01:09:08Please,
01:09:09that's out father.
01:09:09Just think about what you're doing.
01:09:11Put it down.
01:09:11Step out of the way,
01:09:21Emma.
01:09:22I'm not going to tell you again.
01:09:23No,
01:09:23please,
01:09:24think about what you're doing.
01:09:25This is our father.
01:09:26Put it down.
01:09:27What the fuck do you think you're doing,
01:09:28Emma?
01:09:29Get out of the way.
01:09:30No.
01:09:30It's okay,
01:09:31Emma.
01:09:31I'll handle this.
01:09:32No,
01:09:33please,
01:09:33let me talk to him.
01:09:34Talk to who?
01:09:35This piece of shit?
01:09:37This disgraceful excuse for a man
01:09:39that I'm ashamed to call my son?
01:09:40Your mother was right about you.
01:09:43If you refuse to get out of the way,
01:09:45Emma,
01:09:45then you can go to the grave with him.
01:09:48No,
01:09:48no,
01:09:48no,
01:09:48no.
01:09:51Father!

01:10:02Please,
01:10:03call an ambulance!
01:10:04No,
01:10:05call an ambulance!
01:10:06It's too late,
01:10:06Emma.
01:10:07It's too late.
01:10:08Father,
01:10:09please,
01:10:09I don't want to
01:10:10I'm sorry.
01:10:11It's fine.
01:10:13But know
01:10:14that I'm so proud of you.
01:10:17And your mother would have been
01:10:18so proud of you, too.
01:10:22I'll send her your love.
