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

01:02:42i'm sorry i think my hearing must be playing tricks on me could you repeat that for me please
01:02:54i said i would like your daughter's hand in marriage
01:02:58so it seems like my hearing is fine no sir i believe your hearing is still top notch
01:03:04so what makes you think i would go for such a ludicrous idea well i didn't think you'd have
01:03:09a problem with it since i am the heir to my family's billion dollar fortune is that supposed
01:03:14to impress me anyone could claim to be anything these days
01:03:17that's my family's name our net worth we operate several business enterprises as well as doing
01:03:29philanthropic work so a union between your daughter and i would strengthen both our families
01:03:34galvanizing our position high society making us a formidable force
01:03:38i didn't think you'd have a problem with it
01:03:40well i see you've done your research but even if i were to give this union my blessing
01:03:46i could never convince my emmeline to marry someone that she didn't choose herself
01:03:50well i believe that's where i come in how so
01:03:54so how exactly do you plan on wooing my daughter
01:04:04well in all honesty sir it's not a very good plan but it's one that sets my heart at ease
01:04:10what exactly are you talking about i've not had much luck with women in this regard they always
01:04:16seem to be after me for access to my money i'm just so sick of it so i intend to disguise myself
01:04:24as a nobody are you suggesting that my daughter is after you for your money like some pathetic
01:04:29little gold digger no no sir i just want emma to get to know me for me that's all this is a
01:04:36ridiculous plan it'll never work i know but i'm still willing to try and if it goes south no harm
01:04:44done so what exactly do you want from me well i was hoping you could put in a good word for me
01:04:48but emma can't know that you know who i am maybe you could say that i'm the son of an old friend
01:04:54this is a ridiculous plan i think you just need to leave it's no secret that you yearn for your
01:04:58daughter to get married to someone worthy from high society please just consider the plan
01:05:04how dare you presume to know me and what it is that i want get out

01:05:39i just wanted you to see the real me that's what i was trying to tell you that day in the restaurant
01:05:44but you wouldn't hear me out
01:05:45so you just created a fake marriage a contract marriage and why not move on to someone else
01:05:52contracts marriage but what if i hadn't signed it what was going to be your next scheme
01:05:57i told you you're the only person that i ever wanted to see me for who i was
01:06:03and it wasn't a sham contract i would have kept my end of the bargain at the end of the three months
01:06:10what if i hadn't signed it what would have your next scheme dean
