00:00Sorry to wake you.
00:08I married the man of my dreams seven years ago.
00:11We have a perfect family.
00:13But besides the perfunctory nightly routine, we're still strangers.
00:17I once believed we could at least share a life of mutual respect.
00:21Till the end.
00:24And now, let's give a big round of applause to this year's debate champion,
00:28Henry Stirling.
00:34Dad, Mummy, come up here with me.
00:42Victoria, of course it's her.
00:50Who was that?
00:52No one.
00:53Dad, no more work today, you promised.
00:56And Aunt Victoria, you said you'd be my mum today.
01:00Alright, alright.
01:01Mum and Dad are all yours today, kiddo.
01:04Right?
01:05One.
01:08Mum and Dad.
01:10Then what am I?
01:11What's wrong?
01:25Not in the mood?
01:27James, I want a divorce.
01:32What's wrong with my not satisfying you?
01:34It's not about the sex.
01:36I'm tired of pretending everything's fine.
01:38What's wrong with you on your period?
01:41No, I'm serious.
01:44It's fine.
01:45Try again another day.
01:52James, will you listen to me for once?
01:54Sign this.
01:55Olivia, this isn't funny.
01:57I'm serious.
01:57I want a divorce.
01:59After all, I'm not exactly needed.
02:00Now you're perfect Victoria's back, am I?
02:02Isn't this exactly what you wanted?
02:04What are you talking about?
02:05All this about Victoria!
02:07James?
02:15I brought Victoria on to help me with the company.
02:19Helping you play good wife and husband to my son.
02:22Olivia, I hope I'm not interrupting.
02:24I just had some urgent work discussed with James.
02:26Clearly the Sterling Group can't function without you.
02:28Olivia, enough.
02:29I'll leave you two to it.
02:33Just don't forget to sign the papers when you're done, Mr. Sterling.
02:36Oh, James, I hope Olivia's not misunderstanding something between us.
02:40She's just being dramatic.
02:42Let's talk about this in the study.
02:45The EMC global...
02:46And just like that, I'm invisible again.
02:49Aunt Victoria!
03:01We're here.
03:02Why didn't you come find me earlier?
03:04Sorry, kiddo.
03:05I just came to talk to your dad about work.
03:07Well, you have to stay and play with me today.
03:10I wish you could live here forever.
03:12Oh, if I lived here, where would your mum go?
03:15She can leave.
03:17It's not like she does anything useful here anyway.
03:20You can teach me a foreign language, Aunt Victoria.
03:23Alright, Henry.
03:24Let's stop bothering Victoria.
03:25We need to go to the office.
03:26Come on.
03:26Henry, why don't you get your mum to help you with your friends?
03:30No.
03:32Mama ne comprend rien.
03:34Henry, attention à ton langouige.
03:37I don't remember when it started.
03:39But every time they don't want me to participate,
03:42they switch to another language.
03:44Papa, pourquoi tu es posé, Mama?
03:47Elle ne sait quoi faire le ménage.
03:49Elle a été adaptée.
03:54James, ne sois pas trop de vec-lui.
03:56C'est quand un on fond.
03:59Oh, Olivia, I'm so sorry.
04:01I totally forgot you don't speak French.
04:03Do you need me to translate?
04:05Don't bother Aunt Victoria.
04:06She wouldn't even understand it anyway.
04:08Pas de tout.
04:09Je suis habituée.
04:10You speak French?
04:17You speak French?
04:20A little.
04:21You.
04:22Looks like Olivia's been working very hard to keep up with you and Henry.
04:27Copycat.
04:27She barely knows anything.
04:29She can't even help me with my schoolwork.
04:32Oh, is that true?
04:33She doesn't know French, but she says it's for my own good as an excuse.
04:39I wanted Henry to have a carefree childhood, but now he just sees me as incompetent.
04:44Maybe Olivia should hire a tutor for Henry.
04:47We wouldn't want him to fall behind.
04:49Enough.
04:49Okay, we need to go.
04:50Come on.
04:53What's wrong?
04:54It's probably just a cold from working late last night.
04:57Do we need to go to the hospital?
04:59Oh.
05:02Here, Aunt Victoria, have some water.
05:11Ew.
05:12Don't spread germs.
05:15You go back to the room.
05:17So they do know how to care for someone, just not for me.
05:21James, aren't you forgetting something?
05:23Divorce papers?
05:24Daddy, are you guys getting tossed?
05:29No.
05:30Olivia, don't misunderstand.
05:33They're just being considerate.
05:34Mum, don't be mean to Aunt Victoria.
05:37Why would I?
05:38Don't you want her to be your mummy?
05:40Enough.
05:41Henry likes Victoria because she's always there for him.
05:43Kate, if you're in one of your tantrums, just leave us alone.
05:46James, Olivia wouldn't actually divorce you, right?
05:57Marriage isn't a game.
05:58She knows the consequences.
06:00But still.
06:01Mummy would never leave us.
06:02She simply has nothing else.
06:05Nothing else.
06:07The same gifts over and over.
06:12James, have you ever really known me at all?
06:15This marriage is absurd.
06:18Maria, call the consignment.
06:20Tell them to sell everything.
06:22I'm done with it.
06:23Everything, Mum.
06:25Everything.
06:26Are you really that short?
06:28You don't know her.
06:29For the past seven years, her world has revolved around our family.
06:33She couldn't survive without me and Henry.
06:35She's too sheltered to stand on her own.
06:38Every time I try, I catch myself reaching for it from someone else.
06:45Why is it so hard to hold on to?
06:50I want to trust myself.
06:52From now on, no more toxic lads.
06:56No more suffocating marriage.
06:59Olivia, you are free.
07:01Are we going broke or what?
07:16What is this dinner?
07:17Mrs. Olivia isn't home, so I've prepared dinner tonight.
07:21Oh, this is way too sweet.
07:24Why is there peanut in this?
07:25I can't swallow this.
07:27You've rendered the fat soggy.
07:30This isn't seared.
07:32Did you even let the iron reach 200 degrees before touching the meat?
07:36I'm so sorry, Mrs. Sterling.
07:38Mrs. Olivia normally personally cooks all the meals herself.
07:42I just help with the...
07:43Are you telling me this family doesn't function without Olivia?
07:46Now what's wrong with the damn dog?
07:52It's always Mrs. Olivia who looks after Duke.
07:55He doesn't even eat unless she's prepared his food.
07:58Mommy.
07:58I want mommy.
08:00And where is Olivia?
08:02Is she still sulking?
08:14Mrs. Olivia says you're getting divorced.
08:16So she got rid of all of her stuff.
08:19Oh.
08:20And she wants you to sign these divorce papers as soon as possible.
08:24It doesn't want to have anything to do with the Sterlings.
08:27Including Henry.
08:29Excuse me?
08:30What kind of woman abandons her own child?
08:34Call her.
08:34Now.
08:35Daddy.
08:36Did mommy leave us?
08:45Olivia, call me back.
08:46It's gone far enough.
08:48Your call has been forwarded to an automated voice message system.
08:52Please leave your name, number, and a brief message after the tone.
09:00James.
09:01What did you do to her?
09:03How dare she block your number?
09:07Let's see how far she gets without the Sterlings.
09:09Babe, what do you think James would do if he found out you were actually loaded?
09:18Please.
09:19The Sterlings don't care about money.
09:21Not this kind of money.
09:23Your parents' North Sea oil fields could buy half of London.
09:26And yet, still doesn't compare to his precious Victoria.
09:30That man and his son are both blind.
09:33You gave up everything for them.
09:34And they just let that snake waltz right in.
09:37To them, I was just an ignorant embarrassment.
09:40Victoria's who they want.
09:42God.
09:43They inherited the same heartless genes.
09:45You were a Bild University prodigy.
09:48And this year's Polaris Award for Outstanding Achievement in Translation goes to...
10:00Olivia Joyce Albright!
10:02You were the Joyce Albright.
10:05Language prodigy.
10:07The champion of the translation and interpretation department.
10:11I allowed Mrs. Sterling to define me for too long.
10:14I forgot who I was.
10:16I want to go back.
10:19To translation.
10:20To my career.
10:22Finally.
10:23Do you know how long I've been waiting for you to say that?
10:26If it wasn't for James, you'd be working in international diplomacy by now.
10:30So, what's the plan?
10:33Wait.
10:34What if you went to work for Foxbridge?
10:37You do know they are the Sterlings' biggest competitor, right?
10:41I'm divorcing him.
10:42I don't care about his competitors.
10:44Besides, it's been seven years.
10:48I don't know if I still got it.
10:50Of course you do.
10:51You just don't know who's been waiting for you all this time.
10:54Who?
10:54My brother.
10:56Tom Whitmore.
10:57The EMC Global Distributor Summit is a critical contract.
11:09I strongly recommend using AI-powered translation services.
11:13Our system is already highly advanced.
11:15Humans are far too unpredictable.
11:17Machines lack nuance.
11:19I don't think it's suitable for this case.
11:21Without a translator on par with them, we don't stand a chance.
11:24I don't know if I'm in love.
11:30The meeting's over.
11:33Was that a smile on his face?
11:36Don, he wants to meet you tonight at La Ciel Restaurant at 7pm.
11:40All right.
11:42Mother, this is as far as I can help you.
