Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I don't know who you are, but I'm going to ruin your life.
00:00:07Her name is Angela, and I want you to marry her.
00:00:10You're joking.
00:00:11It's Angela, or you'll never be CEO.
00:00:14What a displeasure to see you again.
00:00:16Displeasures all mine.
00:00:19Congratulations.
00:00:20You're officially a gold digger.
00:00:22Xavier?
00:00:26Hello, dear.
00:00:27Sky, what the? I thought you knew.
00:00:30It's part of our arrangement.
00:00:31It's part of our arrangement.
00:00:34Copy, you missed something they can bite through.
00:00:37Yeah, happy with the night crew.
00:00:39I do.
00:00:40Get real for a ring, type five.
00:00:43You, we don't gotta overheat, you know I'm hot, boy.
00:00:47We don't need a lie detector if I'm not, boy.
00:00:50You can get my hit, you rumble in the lot, boy.
00:00:53Game for me, let's not shoot my shot, look.
00:00:56As of next week, I'll be able to say I'm made out with the CEO of Knight Enterprises.
00:01:06It'd be a lot cooler if you could say that you gave him a head.
00:01:16Oh, you are such a good secretary.
00:01:22Truly.
00:01:26Above and beyond.
00:01:29Do you want me to fuck you?
00:01:31Yeah.
00:01:33Okay, Mr. Knight.
00:01:36I want to hear you scream my name.
00:01:43And you're kidding.
00:01:48You don't know my name, do you?
00:01:52Oh my god.
00:01:53Oh my god, I'm such an idiot.
00:01:57I guess it's true what they always say.
00:01:59You really are the biggest dick in America.
00:02:02Oh, I thought they were saying that I had the biggest dick.
00:02:06Good luck with your promotion, Mr. Knight.
00:02:09I quit.
00:02:09Checkmate.
00:02:25Checkmate.
00:02:27I'll give it to you, kiddo.
00:02:29You're still the whiz kid.
00:02:30I think that'd make it easier to find a job.
00:02:33You'll find one.
00:02:34I don't know.
00:02:36Honestly, this last game was all luck.
00:02:38Just the right place at the right time.
00:02:40Sometimes.
00:02:41That's all it takes.
00:02:42How do his labs look?
00:02:47Well, the chemo was insufficient.
00:02:50The tumor is still growing.
00:02:52You know, as you know, we can't surgically remove it until we first control the spread.
00:02:56So, what do we do?
00:02:58Well, there is a new experimental treatment we could try, but it's unlikely insurance would cover it.
00:03:05Then we'll have to pass.
00:03:06No.
00:03:07It's fine.
00:03:08Angela, we're in enough medical debt as it is.
00:03:10I'll find the money.
00:03:14I'll find a way.
00:03:18Whose ex-secretary, Diane Witherford, says it was a pattern of disrespect and inappropriate behaviors.
00:03:24This is twice in one month.
00:03:26The prodigal son of Knight Enterprises has found himself the subject of debaucherous controversy.
00:03:32Her name is Diane?
00:03:34I've literally never heard anybody call her that.
00:03:36You've managed to lose the company millions of dollars overnight.
00:03:40Dad, it'll bounce back.
00:03:42Knight Enterprises is not some trampoline I built for you to play with.
00:03:46I was ready to name you as my successor, but this, this is proof that you're just not ready.
00:03:53I know you never recovered from your mother's death.
00:03:55Oh, God, Dad.
00:03:56But it's time for you to grow up.
00:03:58It's time for you to decide what kind of man you want to be.
00:04:02You mean what kind of man you want me to be?
00:04:04If you want the CEO title, I need to see that you're settled down.
00:04:09Stable.
00:04:10I'll do better, Dad.
00:04:13Okay?
00:04:14You can trust me.
00:04:15She would be so disappointed.
00:04:23She would be so disappointed.
00:04:41Excuse me.
00:04:42I'm so sorry.
00:04:42Watch where you're going.
00:04:45You bumped into me.
00:04:46Then why did you apologize?
00:04:48I was being nice.
00:04:50Huh.
00:04:50Nice?
00:04:51And how far has that gotten you?
00:04:53I don't know.
00:04:54How far has being an asshole gotten you?
00:04:56Ah, one day, you're going to realize who you're talking to right now.
00:05:00And I'll have completely forgotten about you.
00:05:03Not if I forget you first.
00:05:04Oh, what an asshole.
00:05:19Excuse me?
00:05:20Can I help you?
00:05:20You look like you could use a flower.
00:05:24You look like you could use a flower.
00:05:40That's awfully nice.
00:05:43Remembering someone?
00:05:45Someone very important to me.
00:05:48Someone very important to me.
00:05:54And one for Amelia, too.
00:05:58Can I ask your name?
00:06:01Angela.
00:06:02Angela Carter.
00:06:02Well, it was nice to meet you.
00:06:08Nice to meet you.
00:06:08Nice to meet you.
00:06:09Lydia, get me as much information as you can on Angela Carter.
00:06:30Headed out.
00:06:46Okay, I'll be here, getting rejected from every engineering firm in the city.
00:06:50I told you, if you want some quick money, it's either feet pics or blood.
00:06:55Are those my only options?
00:06:56Unfortunately, there's a lot of desperate perverts and rich billionaires that want to live forever.
00:07:04Maybe do something nice for yourself.
00:07:07Anything nice costs money.
00:07:13You're going to leave without your wallet?
00:07:25Did you forget your keys, too?
00:07:26Can I help you?
00:07:35I'm sorry to intrude.
00:07:38Do you remember me?
00:07:39Of course.
00:07:44So, who are you?
00:07:47My name is Brad Knight.
00:07:50That's funny.
00:07:51You have the same name as that billionaire.
00:07:53I guess my reputation precedes me.
00:07:55Oh, oh.
00:07:59Um, well, how can I help you, Brad Knight the billionaire?
00:08:04Our encounter yesterday gave me an idea.
00:08:07I think you could be an invaluable asset to the future of Knight Enterprises.
00:08:14Oh, my God.
00:08:15Oh, my God.
00:08:17This is amazing timing.
00:08:18You know, I've been needing a job.
00:08:19Well, it's less of a job and more of an arrangement.
00:08:25Oh, you want my blood?
00:08:30No.
00:08:31No, nothing like that.
00:08:35I know about your situation.
00:08:37What situation?
00:08:39Your father's medical bills.
00:08:42I'll pay for everything.
00:08:45And you'll be taken care of, too.
00:08:48You just have to do one thing for me.
00:08:50I need you to marry my son.
00:09:01Is this some sort of joke?
00:09:04I wish it was.
00:09:07Xavier is in desperate need of a good influence.
00:09:10And I think it has to come in the form of a wife.
00:09:14A partner.
00:09:16You want me to marry Xavier Knight?
00:09:21The man who was just caught sleeping with his secretary?
00:09:25The man who was arrested in Istanbul for public indecency?
00:09:28The man who snuck a stripper onto Air Force One and tried to...
00:09:31I'm fully aware of my son's rap sheet.
00:09:36Xavier's been through a lot.
00:09:37But being a knight comes with a tremendous amount of pressure.
00:09:43In my younger years, I was just as lost as he is now.
00:09:48Until I met his mother.
00:09:50God rest her soul.
00:09:52But why me?
00:09:53Because I've made a pretty nice life for myself.
00:09:57Following my gut.
00:10:00And silly as it may sound, my gut is telling me it's you.
00:10:04When you handed me that flower yesterday, you answered a prayer of mine.
00:10:12So, I'm here to answer yours, Angela.
00:10:17I'll save your father.
00:10:20If you save my son.
00:10:22Give me a call when you're ready.
00:10:32A kind young woman offered this to me after you left me in the park the other day.
00:10:46It's your mother's favorite.
00:10:48I was like you once, Xavier.
00:10:51Angry at the world.
00:10:54Emptying myself into one hollow pleasure after another until there was nothing left inside of me.
00:10:59And lashing out at everyone that tried to help.
00:11:04It's a great speech, Dad.
00:11:06It sounds even better today than it did yesterday.
00:11:09You know, I thought threatening to take away the CEO position from you would make you understand how serious I am.
00:11:15I do understand.
00:11:17And I actually have a great idea to help make back all the money that I lost.
00:11:24There's a new AI tool developed in Paris.
00:11:27And we could be the first media company to have it.
00:11:30You're missing the point.
00:11:32Children have ideas.
00:11:34Adults turn ideas into something real.
00:11:36And your mother turned me into something real.
00:11:41She taught me the power of commitment.
00:11:44And I found someone who can do that for you.
00:11:47So you want me to date a random girl off the street because she gave you a flower?
00:11:54No, Xavier.
00:11:56Her name is Angela.
00:11:58And I want you to marry her.
00:12:00You're joking.
00:12:01Unfortunately, not.
00:12:04You run me out of options.
00:12:07It's Angela, or I'm cutting you off.
00:12:11Angela, or you'll never be CEO.
00:12:16Angela, or I give up on you, son.
00:12:19So crazy.
00:12:30When they told me whose makeup I was doing, I was like, it can't be that Angela Carter.
00:12:34How long have you been doing it?
00:12:36Not that long.
00:12:36It's been impossible to find a job since college.
00:12:39I mean, you must be judging me so hard.
00:12:42What?
00:12:42Why?
00:12:43We were in the same program, and now I'm doing your makeup because you're becoming a billionaire.
00:12:47I mean, the Mario Roland is taking your engagement photos for Vogue.
00:12:53Well, I think that everyone feels like more of an imposter than they're willing to admit.
00:12:59Angela, you look beautiful.
00:13:06Can you give us a moment, please?
00:13:09Yeah.
00:13:09It's you.
00:13:18Hmm.
00:13:19What a displeasure to see you again.
00:13:22Hmm.
00:13:23Displeasures all mine.
00:13:25Need I remind you the last thing this family needs is another leak of information.
00:13:30In public, you have to get along.
00:13:33Hmm.
00:13:33Wait.
00:13:34Hmm.
00:13:34Congratulations.
00:13:45Great.
00:13:48Uh.
00:13:50Get a little closer, maybe.
00:13:53Please?
00:13:57Yeah.
00:13:58Try putting your hand on his chest, maybe.
00:14:08Uh.
00:14:12Yeah.
00:14:13Higher.
00:14:15Higher.
00:14:17Perfect.
00:14:21It's perfect.
00:14:25Okay.
00:14:25And now, the kiss.
00:14:27Come on now.
00:14:31Don't be shy.
00:14:32Uh.
00:14:33Oh.
00:14:34I missed that one.
00:14:36Um.
00:14:39Oh.
00:14:39Missed that one, too.
00:14:42What if we try one that's a little bit longer?
00:14:46Longer.
00:14:46Yeah.
00:15:02A little bit more.
00:15:06I'm going to get another side.
00:15:06Oh.
00:15:07Yeah.
00:15:07I'm going to get another side.
00:15:09Bye.
00:15:09Bye.
00:15:10Bye.

00:22:00with the treatment
00:22:01I

00:22:05to pluck such a delicate flower
00:22:07without asking for her father's permission

00:24:53I hope the music didn't wake you up
00:24:54Xavier said you were out of town
00:24:56it's fine, Skye
00:24:58do you mind if I talk to my fiancee alone for a moment?
00:25:11so what's your play here?
00:25:13gonna torture me into submission?
00:25:15is it working?
00:25:17you're drunk
00:25:18you're right
00:25:19you're always right, aren't you?
00:25:23how'd I get so lucky to be matched with the smartest woman in America?
00:25:26can you turn the music down?
00:25:28what is wrong with you?
00:25:32it's hard, you know
00:25:33it's so hard
00:25:34being this rich
00:25:36and handsome
00:25:38and famous
00:25:39I mean, the pressure
00:25:41and the scrutiny
00:25:42and my father
00:25:45Brad is a kind and generous man
00:25:47oh yeah?
00:25:49even though he blackmailed you
00:25:51into marrying me
00:25:52there are worse things
00:25:53and being married to you
00:25:54I wouldn't be so sure about that
00:26:08why's that?
00:26:14because I'm bad news
00:26:15always have been
00:26:19then maybe it's time to try something new
00:26:22okay?
00:26:22I could help you
00:26:23stop being so nice to me
00:26:26this is nice?
00:26:28you talk to me
00:26:29like you know me
00:26:30or like you're trying to get to know me
00:26:31why do you want my defenses down, huh?
00:26:35what's your angle?
00:26:36I just think we see people differently, Xavier
00:26:38try living your whole life
00:26:40where everyone always wants something from you
00:26:43then we'll see how open-hearted you still are
00:26:47my heart's collecting dust
00:26:50just the same as yours
00:26:51it's funny
00:26:58even though
00:27:01I know
00:27:02that you're using me
00:27:04I don't think you're lying to me
00:27:09I'm not
00:27:12maybe you're right that day at the cemetery
00:27:17I'm an asshole
00:27:20you're an angel
00:27:24we have a
00:27:28dinner
00:27:29with a member of the board tomorrow night
00:27:32so I have to behave
00:27:35and so do you
00:27:40the board flew into a panic
00:27:49when they read about your secretary expose
00:27:51I can't say
00:27:52we're not relieved to see you settle down
00:27:54sure, yeah
00:27:55it's given me a lot of focus
00:27:58actually
00:27:59I was just
00:28:00talking to my father
00:28:02the other day
00:28:02about a new opportunity for us in France
00:28:05come on
00:28:06I want to hear about how you and Angela met
00:28:08we always talk about Angela
00:28:10which I'm sure she's getting
00:28:15sick of
00:28:17he just gets choked up talking about it
00:28:21such a softie
00:28:22we met in a graveyard
00:28:26I was visiting my mom
00:28:30I had just come from a bad job interview
00:28:33and he was having a bad day
00:28:36too
00:28:36we got to talking
00:28:38and
00:28:39the rest is history
00:28:41what were you interviewing for?
00:28:44an engineering position
00:28:45it's what I studied
00:28:46I just had to take a hiatus from work
00:28:48to take care of my dad
00:28:49where did you get your degree?
00:28:50Harvard
00:28:51Harvard
00:28:51hmm
00:28:53you studied engineering at Harvard?
00:28:59mm-hmm
00:29:00my son's idea of a joke
00:29:05she would never let me forget how smart she is
00:29:14so Angela
00:29:15what do you think of
00:29:16Xavier's new big idea
00:29:18the Paris deal
00:29:19well
00:29:20who could say no to a face like that?
00:29:23I don't know
00:29:23I'm serious
00:29:24seems like you have a good head on your shoulders
00:29:26what do you think of this direction for the company?
00:29:30honestly
00:29:31I mean with all due respect
00:29:36this Paris deal doesn't matter one bit
00:29:38well it doesn't
00:29:41there's always going to be some new cutting edge technology
00:29:44and it doesn't matter if Knight Enterprises acquires this tool or the next one that hops up
00:29:48what matters is
00:29:51whether or not this guy's in charge
00:29:53it could be anything
00:29:56he'll make it worthwhile
00:29:57I promise if nothing else
00:30:00Xavier is relentless
00:30:01okay maybe it's not my place
00:30:04but I don't really see this as a question of the company's direction
00:30:07you know in moments like this
00:30:09you don't want to follow a compass
00:30:10you want to follow a leader
00:30:13so
00:30:25Harvard huh
00:30:26the tone of surprise in your voice is fairly insulting
00:30:32but yes
00:30:34Harvard
00:30:35I'm not used to being around
00:30:39smart girls
00:30:40maybe everything they said just went right over your head
00:30:45there you go
00:30:46being all smart again
00:30:49I like it when you're smart with me
00:30:56what the fuck

00:37:12Something wrong?
00:37:27Are you sure you didn't study acting at Harvard?
00:37:31Excuse me?
00:37:33I mean, you got the chops for it.
00:37:38Did you even go to Harvard?
00:37:40Xavier, what the fuck are you talking about?
00:37:42I saw you and Dustin.
00:37:43Oh, my god.
00:37:44This again?
00:37:45You're trying to make me look foolish?
00:37:47You put my entire reputation on the line.
00:37:49How long have you two been together?
00:37:51Haven't we done this already?
00:37:52That's what makes it so humiliating,
00:37:54because I actually started to believe you.
00:37:57Just stop it.
00:37:58You're overreacting.
00:37:59Oh, yeah?
00:38:01Is this overreacting?
00:38:01Is this overreacting?
00:38:11Yeah, definitely.
00:38:13So I'm the bad guy now, huh?
00:38:15Because I actually value commitment.
00:38:18Commitment?
00:38:19You're always with a different woman.
00:38:20So you have been seeing him?
00:38:22Dustin's gay, you idiot.
00:38:28Oh.
00:38:31Well, I haven't been seeing other women.
00:38:38What?
00:38:39Not since the dinner.
00:38:42Why?
00:38:44I don't know.
00:38:50Xavier, who hurt you?
00:38:53No one.
00:38:54Well, you're lashing out.
00:38:56That's what my father says.
00:39:01Matt.
00:39:03That's mine.
00:39:07The man who broke my heart.
00:39:11Made me believe it would hurt less
00:39:12to never put it back together again.
00:39:24Claudia.
00:39:47She was everything that I ever imagined in a woman.
00:39:54Wild in all the right ways.
00:39:56No one had ever been able to keep up with me
00:39:58like that before.
00:40:01You know, I thought I'd finally met my match.
00:40:05So after a few months, I proposed.
00:40:10And the night before the wedding,
00:40:16she's gone.
00:40:18Ran off with my best man.
00:40:24I guess I had really met my match.
00:40:28So you thought me and Dustin before the wedding.
00:40:32I know what it's like to be hurt but you can't live in fear forever.
00:40:52It's only a matter of time until I scare you away.
00:40:54So is that what you've been doing?
00:40:57Pushing me away on purpose because you're scared to do it by mistake?
00:41:01Everyone leaves eventually.
00:41:08You will too.
00:41:09I know this may be hard to imagine, Xavier.
00:41:13But I'm not afraid of you.
00:41:14I know this may be the same time, Xavier.
00:41:17But I'm not afraid of you.
00:41:20And I'm not running away.
00:41:21I know this may be the same thing, Xavier.
00:41:31But I'm not afraid of you.
00:41:34And I'm not running away.
00:41:38I know you're a man, Xavier.
00:41:41I know you're a man, Xavier.
00:41:42Do you want this?
00:41:49Yeah.
00:42:12What?
00:42:28Nothing.
00:42:32It's just...
00:42:34We're getting married tomorrow.
00:42:38I know. Can you believe it?
00:42:48Wait, wait.
00:42:51Let's wait for our wedding night.
00:42:54Traditional.
00:42:56I like it.
00:42:59Wait.
00:43:01Stay with me.
00:43:04Nothing has to happen.
00:43:07Just stay.
00:43:11Okay.
00:43:13I'll stay.
00:43:15Dr. Bogdan?
00:43:25Ms. Carter, we've been trying to reach you. We were calling and calling but you wouldn't answer.
00:43:39What happened?
00:43:41He was yelling out for you. We kept trying to call so you could be here to say goodbye. Why weren't you answering the phone, Angela?
00:43:49Wait. Are you saying that?
00:43:51We lost him. Angela. Your father's dead.
00:43:53Hey, it's okay. It's okay.

00:54:23i mean to be honest
00:54:25i don't even know if you're capable of love
00:54:28because love xavier is a commitment to something more than every passing pleasure
00:54:33god and it's too bad you know because you could be amazing if you believed in yourself for 10 seconds
00:54:42but you go from woman to woman idea to idea just hoping praying one of them will distract you from the nothingness inside of you
00:54:49you poor little rich boy
00:55:00it must be so hard to have everything you could ever want and never have to choose anything
00:55:09that's what you think of me
00:55:12yeah
00:55:13good to know everything's clear between us
00:55:29i can't do this she hates me she doesn't hate you she told me my entire life is a distraction from
00:55:37the nothingness inside of me well it sounds like i picked the right girl
00:55:43sometimes we need people in our lives to hold up a mirror to ourselves
00:55:52and sometimes it's painful to see what's there doesn't mean she hates you then why does it feel like
00:55:57it she's hurt xavier
00:56:04she's trapped with me dad is it a trap really trust yourself son
00:56:13you choose something
00:56:21sounds
00:56:29what are you doing here
00:56:30I thought you might want someone away with you until your dad gets out of surgery.
00:56:37I don't need you here.
00:56:41Okay.
00:56:44Do you mind if I stay anyway?
00:57:00I don't forgive you.
00:57:08Okay.
00:57:14I didn't want to kiss her.
00:57:16That must have been really hard for you.
00:57:18I'm just trying to say that I...
00:57:19Did you come here just to argue with me?
00:57:23No.
00:57:26No.
00:57:30Just say one thing.
00:57:34I know that you're right all the time.
00:57:38You really are.
00:57:53Miss Carter.
00:57:56He did well.
00:57:57We were able to remove the tumor and he'll be fine.
00:58:01He just needs some TLC.
00:58:04Dad.
00:58:07Hey, beautiful.
00:58:11What's wrong?
00:58:12What's wrong?
00:58:14I've been sitting in a hospital for 12 hours hoping you aren't dead.
00:58:18Good to see you, Xavier.
00:58:20It's good to see you, sir.
00:58:21You should get some rest, Dad.
00:58:26We just wanted to say hi.
00:58:29You have to get ready for your big trip to Paris.
00:58:31Actually, sir.
00:58:33It'll just be me going, I think.
00:58:36So that Angela can be here.
00:58:39Is that true, dear?
00:58:40You're not going?
00:58:41I don't forgive you before you get the wrong idea.
00:58:58I don't forgive you before you get the wrong idea.
00:59:10Then, why did you come back?
00:59:16Because even though I don't forgive you,
00:59:19I still believe in you.
00:59:24I believe you can do great things, Xavier.
00:59:26And because I believe if I don't go with you, you are totally going to fuck up this Paris deal.
00:59:35But when we get back, it's over.
00:59:38You understand?
00:59:39The contract will have been fulfilled, and we can go our separate ways.
00:59:45We can just forget about each other and act like this never happened.
00:59:52You really came back because you believed in me.
00:59:57And because you saved my dad.
01:00:02I can be mad at you all I want, but you followed through with your word.
01:00:11I knew what I was getting myself into.
01:00:17It's not your fault you broke my heart.
01:00:19I knew what you going back on mejor.
01:00:35You were right, man.
01:00:39I knew what I was getting myself into.
01:00:41You can like this one day and make me find myself больше.
01:00:42I know, you've got my brother, man.
01:00:43If I don't enjoy your dad...
01:00:45I have made adolescence.
