00:01:40i'll call my husband liam
00:01:42thank you
00:01:51Are you alright?
00:01:52It was so scary. I thought I was going to die.
00:01:55It came down to a choice between me and you.
00:01:57You're always going to pick me.
00:02:01My head hurts so much.
00:02:03Right here.
00:02:03Okay.
00:02:15What?
00:02:15I need to talk to you.
00:02:16Not now.
00:02:17What is so important that you can't talk to your wife?
00:02:19You're a contract wife, not a real one.
00:02:21Don't call me yet at work.
00:02:33If this is the end of the world, I still have regrets.
00:02:47So we can talk.
00:02:48If we're going to marry, we should know each other better.
00:02:50I know your family's going bankrupt.
00:02:52They need financial help.
00:02:54My father says my only options are to marry you or give up firefighting and join the family business.
00:02:59So if we're going to do this, it'll be a marriage by name only.
00:03:03No sex, no feelings, and no love.
00:03:09Yeah.
00:03:10I understand.
00:03:12I can't believe you go this far just for money.
00:03:18I think I married you for money.
00:03:21But I've loved you since I was a little girl, Liam.
00:03:33Ten years of secret love.
00:03:35Three years of marriage.
00:03:37I don't want it to end here.
00:03:49What are you doing?
00:03:50I don't think you gave me a shot.
00:03:53I don't think you gave me a shot.
00:03:54Contract marriage is bad enough.
00:04:12And now you want to restrict me even further with a child?
00:04:13But we've been married for three years.
00:04:17This wildfire is turning the whole city to ash.
00:04:20Can you spare me a little love?
00:04:22No love.
00:04:23No sex.
00:04:24Remember?
00:04:24A contract marriage is still a marriage.
00:04:30I'm your wife.
00:04:31Enough.
00:04:32Even if this whole place burns to the ground, I will never love you.
00:04:38Something happened today.
00:04:40I was at a bar.
00:04:41Natalie, I spent the whole day dragging people out of burnt-out houses.
00:04:45Yeah, I know.
00:04:45One of them is Chloe.
00:04:48You and Chloe, you too.
00:04:50No more questions.
00:04:52I don't give a shit about what you had for lunch today.
00:04:58Of course you don't care about me.
00:05:01We're out-contracted marriage.
00:05:13Chloe had to stay overnight in the hospital.
00:05:15I'm sure she would appreciate a visit from a friend.
00:05:18We're not really friends.
00:05:19I've only met her a couple of times.
00:05:21Then just do it to be kind.
00:05:23Like you would for my father.
00:05:24Do you fancy her?
00:05:26Just do what I asked, Natalie.
00:05:35Hey.
00:05:36Your wife's name is Natalie Blair, right?
00:05:38Yeah.
00:05:38Why?
00:05:39She was injured in the bar explosion caused by the wildfires yesterday.
00:05:45Something happened today.
00:05:56Hmm.
00:05:57I thought you were Liam.
00:05:58He asked me to come.
00:05:59Well, I'm actually glad that you're here.
00:06:01I want you to hear this from me rather than from him.
00:06:05I'm pregnant.
00:06:08Good morning.
00:06:08This is Blair.
00:06:09We have you all booked in for your scans and checkups.
00:06:12I hope your husband, Liam, will be there.
00:06:15Very good.
00:06:16I'll see you then.
00:06:20Liam isn't against having a child.
00:06:23He just doesn't want one with me.
00:06:25The relentless wildfires in Los Angeles have left residents in despair.
00:06:41Flames rage across Palisades and Eaton, forcing tens of thousands to evacuate.
00:06:45Can I help you?
00:06:46Excuse me.
00:06:47Is Liam?
00:06:48Oh, he just stuck out the vice lab.
00:06:50We don't get too much time to him.
00:06:51He won't be long if you want to wait.
00:06:53Oh, um, I'm Alexander.
00:06:57Oh, I'm Natalie.
00:06:58I guess I'll wait if you don't think he'll be long.
00:07:01You're not Liam's wife, are you?
00:07:03Yeah, that's me.
00:07:04It's great to finally meet you.
00:07:08Oh, don't worry about my appearance.
00:07:11The fire's been so bad lately.
00:07:14Natalie.
00:07:20My love is blind.
00:07:21You made your choice.
00:07:22Be the father of Chloe's child.
00:07:24What are you doing here?
00:07:27I saw your name on the casualty list from Lemon Barge yesterday.
00:07:34I want a divorce.
00:07:35You've got to be joking.
00:07:42I spoke to my lawyer.
00:07:43She said that we need to sign these forms to get the process started.
00:07:45Can you at least give me a reason?
00:07:47I thought you'd be happy.
00:07:48It's what you want, isn't it?
00:07:50I get it.
00:07:51You've sucked enough money for me and my family.
00:07:53Now you're ready to move on.
00:07:54Is that it?
00:07:54Think what you want.
00:07:55I don't care how you see me anymore.
00:07:58Liam, I have waited for you for three years.
00:08:00Now I finally believe what you said.
00:08:03That even if this place burns to the ground, you'll never love me.
00:08:10I'm done.
00:08:11I don't want to burn to death at this damn marriage anymore.
00:08:14What about my father?
00:08:15Huh?
00:08:15He arranged this marriage.
00:08:16You know he does.
00:08:17I love your father, but I can't live like this.
00:08:19It was nice meeting you.
00:08:32Hello?
00:08:33What?
00:08:34My dad?
00:08:38I'll be right there.
00:08:39What's wrong?
00:08:40Dad's had a heart attack.
00:08:41We've got to go to the hospital now.
00:08:44Dad!
00:08:45Hey!
00:08:46I'm fine.
00:08:47I'm in good hands.
00:08:49What happened?
00:08:50I was on the yacht, watching the wildfire spread across the mountain, like a fire-breathing
00:08:55dragon.
00:08:56It was so terrifying that suddenly my heart stopped.
00:09:01But then I thought about not getting to see you two starting a family, or me meeting my
00:09:08grandkids.
00:09:10Somehow I got my phone and dialed.
00:09:13That was my last hope.
00:09:15You two saved my life.
00:09:17Your father will need bypass surgery.
00:09:26I booked him for surgery in two weeks to allow him time to stabilize.
00:09:30Okay.
00:09:31What can we do?
00:09:32He needs to remain calm until then.
00:09:33No excitement or agitation.
00:09:36You're welcome.
00:09:39You okay?
00:09:40Yeah, I guess I just didn't expect it to be so extreme.
00:09:44He'll be okay.
00:09:45He's really fit and he looks after himself well.
00:09:48You know what the daughter said, though, right?
00:09:50We have a human calm.
00:09:52He needs hope right now, Natalie.
00:09:53We can't tell about the divorce just yet.
00:09:55It might literally kill him.
00:09:57What are you asking?
00:09:59I was pulling the divorce.
00:10:01Play the happy couple with me.
00:10:02That is a lot to ask for.
00:10:07I know.
00:10:08But will you do it?
00:10:09For dad.
00:10:09Just until after the surgery.
00:10:11I love your father.
00:10:13He's been so good to me.
00:10:15So is that a yes?
00:10:17For your father, yes.
00:10:18Just don't expect me to like it.
00:10:20You what?
00:10:26You two started as a contract marriage and now what?
00:10:29You're pretending to be a loving couple?
00:10:32Wow.
00:10:33Just promise me you won't let yourself get hurt again, okay?
00:10:36I won't.
00:10:37Something just snapped in me today, Alicia.
00:10:40I just, I can't do it anymore.
00:10:42I know you've been in love with him since you were kids,
00:10:44but any man who could share a house with someone as hot as you
00:10:46and not want to jump your bones is either gay or impotent.
00:10:49And I'm betting on impotent, by the way,
00:10:52he's all work and no play at the fire station.
00:10:54Maybe William is impotent.
00:10:56Explain a lot.
00:10:58You think I'm impotent?
00:11:05And that is my cue to make a run for it.
00:11:08Team leader.
00:11:14Not going to answer my question?
00:11:16How would I know?
00:11:18You haven't laid a finger on me in three years of marriage.
00:11:20That was never part of the deal.
00:11:22No sex, remember?
00:11:26Yeah, I remember.
00:11:27I mean, did you want me to touch you?
00:11:30Is this what this is all about?
00:11:31Why are we even having this conversation?
00:11:33I agreed to stay with you until your dad's surgery,
00:11:35and I'll stick to it.
00:11:36This marriage is over.
00:11:42Is that why she wants a divorce?
00:11:44She wants our marriage to be real?
00:11:45I've just never thought of her like that.
00:11:53I thought you'd gone to work.
00:11:54And I'll drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink with you.
00:12:02All this time, I've never noticed my contract wife is hot.
00:12:05I've been thinking about what you said.
00:12:17Do you really want to throw away the rules?
00:12:19Do you really want to be together?
00:12:21More than anything in the world.
00:12:22Why didn't you say anything before?
00:12:24I'm saying something now.
00:12:26What are you going to do about it?
00:12:27Yes.
00:12:31I've been waiting so long for you.
00:12:33I really get so sweet for you, babe.
00:12:35Just lay back and let me take care of you.
00:12:37Shit, that was just a dream.
00:12:54Chloe, what's up?
00:12:55Liam, I'm freaking out.
00:12:57You're sending me home from the hospital tomorrow,
00:12:59but my house was destroyed in the wildfire.
00:13:01Now I'm homeless and pregnant.
00:13:03Can I move in with you?
00:13:04So, what do you think?
00:13:07Should we get Chloe to the guest room?
00:13:10It's up to you.
00:13:11You live here, too.
00:13:13Not for much longer.
00:13:15Do whatever suits you, Liam.
00:13:22I don't know, man.
00:13:23It's one thing to help out Tom's widow after he died on the job,
00:13:26but moving her into your place is a lot.
00:13:28I know, but she doesn't have anybody left.
00:13:30And her house burned down, too.
00:13:32What's Natalie think?
00:13:34She says it's my choice.
00:13:35Since I'm getting divorced.
00:13:36About that, since you guys are calling quits,
00:13:39how would you feel about me asking her out?
00:13:42Natalie?
00:13:43Yeah.
00:13:44No offense, but she's like summer man ice cream.
00:13:47One bite and she could save my life.
00:13:49She is her own person.
00:13:52I'm not going to get her away.
00:13:53Thanks, man.
00:13:54You're a lifesaver, Liam.
00:14:08Thank you so much for taking us in.
00:14:10No problem.
00:14:11Let me know if you need any extra pillows or blankets or anything.
00:14:15Isn't Natalie home?
00:14:16Must be.
00:14:17Oh, I think I have something in my eye.
00:14:20Let me see it.
00:14:20All right.
00:14:29Are you going up?
00:14:30Yeah.
00:14:31We have a date.
00:14:32Hey, man.
00:14:43Hey.
00:14:44Hey.
00:14:47Wow.
00:14:48You look great.
00:14:49Hi, Alexander.
00:14:51Chloe.
00:14:51Thank you for spending this Friday off with me.
00:15:02Ready to go?
00:15:05100%.
00:15:06This is my favorite place.
00:15:24Perfect.
00:15:26Of course.
00:15:30My back is so sore.
00:15:33Tom used to give me the best back rubs.
00:15:37You should go lie down.
00:15:41Maybe I will.
00:15:58Dad's been asking for you.
00:16:00Visit hours in soon.
00:16:01Of course.
00:16:02I'll be there as soon as I can.
00:16:06Is everything all right?
00:16:07Um.
00:16:08I have to go.
00:16:11Sorry.
00:16:11Sorry.
00:16:13Oh.
00:16:13That bitch, Natalie, doesn't disturb Liam.
00:16:27Liam is mine.
00:16:31Glad to see they're taking good care of you here, Dad.
00:16:33Hmm.
00:16:38Hello.
00:16:39I didn't think I'd see you today.
00:16:41I thought you asked me to come.
00:16:44Um.
00:16:44Dad was just saying that the doctors are very pleased with his most recent blood test results.
00:16:49That's great news.
00:16:50Well, I told him I've always been a high achiever, and I can't slack off now.
00:16:59Excuse me, but we need you for a few more tests, Mr. Blair.
00:17:03Don't worry, Dad.
00:17:04We'll wait for you.
00:17:04Okay.
00:17:05Okay.
00:17:05256, 257, 258!
00:17:35Come on, come on, 260, 261, 262, 263, come on, let's go, boys, come on!
00:17:42Hey, those look great, thank you so much.
00:17:47These are to say sorry for ending our date early.
00:17:49Oh, chocolate chip, my favorite.
00:17:51And you can make it up to me by saying yes to a date later?
00:17:56Hey, did you order those masks I got asked you to?
00:17:59Oh, this afternoon, oh, well.
00:18:01We're short on them right now.
00:18:02You're gonna miss the delivery one now.
00:18:03Get on it.
00:18:04Now.
00:18:04Sure thing, boss.
00:18:06Call you later.
00:18:08We can go to lunch, if you'd like.
00:18:10Oh, okay.
00:18:11What were you thinking?
00:18:12There's a new vegan spot around the corner.
00:18:14There you are.
00:18:16Did you forget that we have a prenatal appointment later?
00:18:21Looks like you're busy.
00:18:22Good luck with the appointment.
00:18:23I keep letting my guard down and he keeps reminding me why I made it up in the first place.
00:18:35Fuck him.
00:18:36He's the dumbest man on the planet for cheating on you with that horrible bitch.
00:18:39It's him.
00:18:40It's him.
00:18:42He's asking me out for dinner tonight.
00:18:45Seven o'clock.
00:18:46What are you gonna say to him?
00:18:47So, the nurse said that these tasks will probably take a while, but you can stay with me, right?
00:19:00I really hate doing this alone.
00:19:02Tom should be with me.
00:19:04Where the wildfires have passed, residents are facing the difficult challenge of rebuilding their homes.
00:19:11Thousands of families have lost everything in the blaze, and now they can only wander through the ruins.
00:19:16I can't believe Liam's going to blow me off again.
00:19:31What time is it?
00:19:33Where's Chloe?
00:19:35It's two, and Chloe had to stay in the hospital overnight.
00:19:38I'm sorry about dinner.
00:19:40Did you eat?
00:19:42Yeah, I, when you didn't come home, I had some breakfast cereal.
00:19:46I texted to cancel.
00:19:50Oh, shit.
00:19:52I never sent.
00:19:53I'm sorry, we were in the x-ray department.
00:19:54The walls are thick down there.
00:19:57I'm sure you want some pizza.
00:20:01God, I love Hawaiian pizza.
00:20:04That's why I got it.
00:20:07And you look surprised.
00:20:09Because I am.
00:20:11Newsflash, you don't usually care about what I like.
00:20:14Or don't like.
00:20:16I bet you don't even know what my birthday is.
00:20:19It's...
00:20:19It's in January, isn't it?
00:20:23I'm not very good at dates.
00:20:25But I'm not that bad, am I?
00:20:29Well, all you ever care about or think about is your work.
00:20:33Duty.
00:20:34Doing what's best for everyone else.
00:20:36We might as well be two strangers sharing this place.
00:20:42I'm sorry.
00:20:43I made you feel so unimportant.
00:20:46I never thought I'd hear you say something like that.
00:20:49Well, recently I've realized
00:20:51what it's like to feel an outsider
00:20:53in your own marriage.
00:20:56And I guess that's how I made you feel for the last three years.
00:20:58Right?
00:20:59Yeah.
00:21:02I'm sorry.
00:21:08I'm sorry I've hurt you.
00:21:10I've neglected you.
00:21:12You deserved so much more than that.
00:21:15But...
00:21:16There's still hope
00:21:18for our relationship.
00:21:21Isn't there?
00:21:30Mama.
00:21:30I just remembered that
00:21:32I have an early start tomorrow.
00:21:33I'm going to go visit your dad in the hospital.
00:21:34Do you want me to bring him anything?
00:21:36Just let him know that I'll try to stop it later.
00:21:37Okay.
00:21:37I know what you're doing
00:21:43and you need to stop.
00:21:44Excuse me?
00:21:44Stop clinging to Liam.
00:21:46I'm carrying his baby, Natalie.
00:21:48I won.
00:21:49And you lost.
00:21:50So deal with it.
00:21:51You know he's still my husband, Chloe.
00:21:53I mean, what would people think
00:21:54if they knew that the poor grieving widow
00:21:56was fucking my husband
00:21:57and carrying his child?
00:21:59You bitch.
00:22:00You wouldn't dare.
00:22:01Oh.
00:22:01What's stopping me?
00:22:04No, Natalie!
00:22:05Leave me alone!
00:22:06Ah!
00:22:07Ah!
00:22:08The baby!
00:22:10We need help in here.
00:22:11Stat!
00:22:11What just happened?
00:22:14She pushed me!
00:22:15You saw her!
00:22:16I did not!
00:22:16I doubled you something like that!
00:22:18Ah!
00:22:19Ah!
00:22:19My baby!
00:22:20Stand back!
00:22:21Please!
00:22:21Ah!
00:22:22Ah!
00:22:23Ah!
00:22:24Ah!
00:22:27I'm sorry the news isn't better
00:22:28due to the severe impact.
00:22:32Chloe has been scared.
00:22:34I'm sorry.
00:22:34You did this to me.
00:22:39You took my baby away.
00:22:40I didn't do anything.
00:22:41You're a monster.
00:22:42A horrible, jealous monster.
00:22:45Chloe, no!
00:22:45She is unhinged!
00:22:47None of their word.
00:22:48What?
00:22:48What you did say is unforgivable.
00:22:50Got out of my sight.
00:22:51You disgust me.
00:22:52You're not even going to listen to my sight.
00:22:56Your own wife.
00:22:57Hold off your child today.
00:22:58You and I have been married for three years.
00:23:01How could you ever think I'd be capable of something so vicious and ugly?
00:23:03How could you ever listen to me?
00:23:09The way he looked at me?
00:23:10Who cares what that piece of shit thinks?
00:23:12If he believes that psycho bitch, they deserve each other.
00:23:16Where are you going?
00:23:17What does it look like?
00:23:18I'm going to stay in the fire station.
00:23:20I can't be here right now.
00:23:21You have to cancel the wildfire fundraiser tomorrow.
00:23:30It is way too much on top of all of this.
00:23:32I can't.
00:23:33Too many people are counting on me.
00:23:35Are you sure you're up to it?
00:23:37Yeah.
00:23:38And these days with the wildfire still spreading,
00:23:40it'll be good to focus on other people.
00:23:43I need to stop dreaming about Liam and just get on with my life.
00:23:51Why on earth do you think Natalie would ever do that?
00:23:56Stay out of this.
00:23:57I don't know all the facts.
00:23:59I don't need to.
00:23:59Natalie would never attack Chloe ever.
00:24:04How do you even realize how much you're pretty Natalie?
00:24:12Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:24:13Back off.
00:24:14I helped you.
00:24:19Thank you, son.
00:24:20Hey.
00:24:21Everything okay?
00:24:23Yeah, just handling them a lot right now.
00:24:26Are you and Natalie fighting?
00:24:27Nothing for you to worry yourself with, dad.
00:24:30My son, watching you find happiness with Natalie
00:24:33has made me feel less guilty
00:24:35about the bad example your mother and I set
00:24:38for you when we were married.
00:24:41I almost forgot how many times you all broke up
00:24:43and got back together.
00:24:45All that fighting.
00:24:47Listen, Natalie has a warm, generous heart.
00:24:51And that's why I chose her for you.
00:24:54I knew she would show you what a good marriage would be
00:24:57if you took care of her and gave her a chance.
00:25:00That is my real hope.
00:25:10Can you believe she blamed someone else for losing her baby?
00:25:14Unbelievable.
00:25:14And it was all caught on security camera.
00:25:16How could she do something like this?
00:25:18Sorry.
00:25:18Can I see that?
00:25:31You lied about what happened.
00:25:33You injured yourself.
00:25:34What?
00:25:34No.
00:25:35Has Natalie been telling you more lies?
00:25:37There's security camera footage, Chloe.
00:25:38Natalie never touched you.
00:25:40If she didn't touch me, then how did I fall?
00:25:41You tell me.
00:25:43Do you really think I would hurt my own child?
00:25:46My only link to talk?
00:25:48I lost everything.
00:25:50Okay, and now Natalie's trying to take you away from me, too.
00:25:56I have a call out.
00:25:57We'll talk about this later.
00:26:02What do we got?
00:26:03The wildfire assembly changed directions.
00:26:04The community center's about to get hit.
00:26:05Hey.
00:26:06Are we good?
00:26:09Yeah.
00:26:13Let's go.
00:26:20Keep low and cover your base!
00:26:21Go!
00:26:27What about you?
00:26:28I'm going to make sure everyone's out.
00:26:29I'll be right behind you.
00:26:30Go!
00:26:30Go!
00:26:30Go!
00:26:31Go!
00:26:31Go!
00:26:31Come on.
00:26:32Come on.
00:26:39Elisa!
00:26:39Oh, thank God!
00:26:40Natalie's back there.
00:26:41She wouldn't leave her until everyone else was out.
00:26:42Okay.
00:26:42Go!
00:26:43Go!
00:26:45Natalie!
00:26:46Can you hear me?
00:26:47Natalie!
00:26:49Rita!
00:26:49Rita!
00:26:52She's still alive.
00:26:53Okay.
00:26:55I've got her.
00:26:55Hey, hey, please let go for me.
00:27:10How's your throat?
00:27:11It's fine.
00:27:12You can go now.
00:27:14What?
00:27:14Please, Liam, I don't want you here.
00:27:16You're the last person I want helping me.
00:27:18Hey.
00:27:20Oh.
00:27:21You okay?
00:27:22I was worried.
00:27:22I'm sorry.
00:27:22I'm sorry.
00:27:22I'm sorry.
00:27:26I'm going to get the pet shop.
00:27:27The books.
00:27:28Were you able to save any of them?
00:27:29The fires are mostly in front offices, so we should all be fine.
00:27:32Oh, thank God.
00:27:33Natalie worked so hard to gather all those donations here.
00:27:36Natalie was helping with the Wildfire Relief fundraiser.
00:27:39Why do you think we're here?
00:27:41This was all Natalie's plan?
00:27:44Since the wildfire started, she's been giving her earnings as a bestselling author and using
00:27:48her fame to help others.
00:27:50Since when has she been a bestseller?
00:27:51She's one of the top romance authors in the country.
00:27:53How do you not know this?
00:27:54I thought her writing was a hobby.
00:27:56I can't wait until she divorces your ass and you spend the rest of your life realizing
00:28:01how badly you fucked up.
00:28:09Hey, how are you feeling?
00:28:11I can take you in for a full checkup if you'd like.
00:28:13Oh, don't bother.
00:28:14Since when have you cared about me?
00:28:16You can care selflessly for the wildfire victims and I can't care for my own wife?
00:28:20Okay, there's something you should know.
00:28:24There's security footage of the incident with Chloe.
00:28:27It shows that you never touched her.
00:28:29And?
00:28:30And I'm sorry for not listening to you and for all of the harsh shit that I said.
00:28:37You're right.
00:28:37I knowed you a lot more than that, especially with all the years that I've known you.
00:28:41Wow.
00:28:43I bet you feel good with that offer, Jess.
00:28:46No, next time I ask you to trust me, I'll remember to bring the CCTV footage.
00:28:50First love?
00:29:11Who the hell is this guy?
00:29:16She put the meal she'd cooked in the fridge for when he got home from work.
00:29:20He did so much for other people.
00:29:22She wanted to do this small thing for him.
00:29:36Three minutes in the microwave.
00:29:37Enjoy.
00:29:38One thing she loved was folding his clothes for him.
00:29:50She had to pretend it wasn't a big deal, but she loved touching his clothes, imagining him wearing them.
00:29:57Oh, I was just about to bring you these.
00:29:59You didn't need to do that.
00:30:00Her favorite moment in the day was when he came home.
00:30:10She loved his dark hair and his beautiful blue eyes.
00:30:13She especially loved the dimple in his chin.
00:30:15Is it possible my wife has had feelings for me all this time?
00:30:29Hey, just in time.
00:30:39I've got a short stack of pancakes coming your way.
00:30:40I guess it'll be in a slightly shorter stack.
00:30:49One second.
00:30:55There's maple syrup.
00:30:56You like it?
00:30:58Sorry, I'm not hungry.
00:31:01Oh, shoot.
00:31:16What are these for?
00:31:18No specific reason.
00:31:21These don't change anything.
00:31:22I'm allergic to limos.
00:31:45How are you feeling about your big operation?
00:31:48Well, it feels as if you would think, but it has to be done.
00:31:52Dad, did you know that Natalie runs a charity event?
00:31:55I didn't.
00:31:57How long has that been going on?
00:31:58A few years now.
00:31:59I wondered how you got into all of that, too.
00:32:02I'm sure you're not interested in all of that.
00:32:05I am.
00:32:06You were an old man.
00:32:07If you insist.
00:32:12See you soon.
00:32:19Still in the doghouse, son?
00:32:20How'd you know it was me that messed up?
00:32:22Because Natalie wouldn't freeze you out unless you did something really bad.
00:32:26So, how bad is it?
00:32:28Still trying to figure that part out.
00:32:32Any advice on how to make an angry woman forgive you?
00:32:35It's easy.
00:32:37Use your muscles, son.
00:32:38Appeal to her primal instincts.
00:32:40It's better than a thousand words.
00:32:48We haven't talked about Natalie yet.
00:32:49You know, if she's at yours, I don't want to stay there.
00:32:51Not after what happened.
00:32:52You mean after you hurt yourself?
00:32:54If you want to go back to our place, I'll just rent you an apartment.
00:32:56But...
00:32:56No buts, Chloe.
00:32:57I'm not going to ask Natalie to move out to suit your needs.
00:33:03This is all Natalie's fault.
00:33:05I hate that bitch.
00:33:06Have you, uh, seen my jeans anywhere?
00:33:20Um, no.
00:33:22Huh.
00:33:23Can't seem to find them no matter where.
00:33:25Now look.
00:33:27Hmm.
00:33:28Must have pulled something.
00:33:30Aren't you cold?
00:33:31No.
00:33:34Why?
00:33:35Is this a...
00:33:37I'll be in.
00:33:40Are you fishing for compliments?
00:33:41No.
00:33:42I just wonder if you'd like what you see.
00:33:46What exactly do you want from me, Liam?
00:33:49I just think this whole situation with our divorce and dad being sick and the wildfires
00:33:55has really got me reconsidering our marriage.
00:33:58And?
00:33:58And I think you could give me another chance.
00:34:02And we could...
00:34:05Say that.
00:34:08Why would I give you another chance to ignore me for three years?
00:34:10I didn't ignore you.
00:34:11We already established that you didn't know my birthday.
00:34:14You don't even know that I'm a best-selling author.
00:34:17Do you want me to keep going?
00:34:19Okay.
00:34:20Okay.
00:34:20I see what you're saying.
00:34:21But it was never intentional.
00:34:23I was just focused on my work.
00:34:25Hmm.
00:34:26No.
00:34:26Well, you agreed to marry me because your father gave you an ultimatum to either join
00:34:29the family business or get married.
00:34:31And then you blamed me for your own decision.
00:34:34Do you have any idea how lonely this marriage has been for me?
00:34:38You're right.
00:34:39I did blame it on you.
00:34:40And I'm sorry.
00:34:42That was wrong.
00:34:42I've been a selfish idiot.
00:34:45And I am sorry.
00:34:50I read your book.
00:34:52It was romantic and funny and pretty sexy, too.
00:34:58You are not exactly the target market.
00:35:01I saw a lot of you.
00:35:02And it made me only want to get to know you more.
00:35:06Look, I'm sorry that I hurt you.
00:35:11But I really think if you were willing to give it another chance, that we'd have to be
00:35:13really special here.
00:35:15I can't believe you're asking me to just forget everything you've done.
00:35:18No, not forget.
00:35:20Forgive.
00:35:21Give me a chance to make it up to you.
00:35:23Some things are unforgivable.
00:35:25You should be spending time with Chloe.
00:35:26Chloe, I don't want to be with Chloe.
00:35:28I'm here with you.
00:35:29How can you say that when she just lost her child?
00:35:32My what?
00:35:33No, look.
00:35:33Given the circumstances, I think the best thing is to just stick to the plan.
00:35:36We wait until your father is over his operation and we get a divorce.
00:35:39And I would appreciate it if there were no more pancakes or you walking around like
00:35:41that because that doesn't help anything.
00:35:43Natalie, why did you think that Chloe was going to have my baby?
00:35:47Liam, I don't want to listen to your excuses.
00:35:49Let's just wait until your father is over the operation and we'll go our separate ways.
00:35:52Natalie, please listen to me.
00:35:55It's not like that.
00:35:56No, I've got to take this.
00:36:00Thank God you picked up.
00:36:01Natalie, something really bad has happened.
00:36:04Self-published author Chloe claims she wrote the story for her deceased husband, Tom, who
00:36:08dies heroically fighting a fire.
00:36:11They weren't going to crucify me for this, Alicia.
00:36:13We'll find a way to clear your name.
00:36:15Other authors, they're already denouncing me.
00:36:17We'll fix this.
00:36:18I promise.
00:36:19I promise.
00:36:25Good.
00:36:26They got the photo I sent them.
00:36:40Fuck you.
00:36:41Take my man?
00:36:43I'm going to take everything you have.
00:36:50What did the publisher say?
00:36:52I mean, they believe me, but they've withdrawn my book to, like, prove it.
00:36:56Played for us.
00:36:57Thanks.
00:36:57How are your eyes now?
00:37:03Uh, much better.
00:37:04Thank you for coming so quickly.
00:37:06I was scared when my eyes started burning.
00:37:10Yeah, you're very lucky.
00:37:13Whatever you need, I'm here for you, Natalie.
00:37:15Chloe's not an author.
00:37:20What's this bullshit?
00:37:33How come you have your head stuck up so far up your own ass?
00:37:35What the hell are you talking about?
00:37:37Your wife was attacked because of Chloe's lies, and what, you're just playing on your phone?
00:37:40What?
00:37:41What are you doing?
00:37:41Oh!
00:37:45What the fuck, man?
00:37:46Okay, if you're not going to take care of her, I will.
00:37:48So you better back off.
00:37:50She's my wife.
00:37:50Okay, then act like her husband.
00:37:52She could have went blind from the attacks tonight.
00:38:03Natalie?
00:38:04Are you okay?
00:38:05I don't know when I'll be back, or even if I will be back.
00:38:24Shit.
00:38:26Where is she?
00:38:28Alexander said she was attacked?
00:38:29She's not here.
00:38:30It wouldn't matter if she was.
00:38:32She doesn't want to speak with you.
00:38:33I don't want to speak with myself that she's okay.
00:38:35Why do you care all of a sudden?
00:38:36You are the worst thing that ever happened in Adam.
00:38:39I can't wait till the divorce is final, and you're left with that sick bitch, Chloe.
00:38:43You two deserve each other.
00:38:49Asshole.
00:38:49Sorry that you had to deal with that.
00:38:55I would slam a thousand doors in that douchebag's face for you.
00:38:59I think I can stay here.
00:39:01Don't worry.
00:39:01I know exactly the place we can go until all this bad over the city dies down.
00:39:06Okay.
00:39:09Cheers.
00:39:10Cheers.
00:39:10Any for your thoughts?
00:39:18I was just thinking about the first day I fell hard for Liam.
00:39:22How much longer are you going to be here?
00:39:24Me and my friend need a table.
00:39:25Sorry, but I'm an officer.
00:39:27Well, just because you have no friends doesn't mean you get to take over a whole table just for yourself.
00:39:31You need a girl?
00:39:32Says who?
00:39:33Her friend is right here.
00:39:33Sorry, I'm late.
00:39:39This table is taken.
00:39:41You'll have to find another one.
00:39:47I haven't seen him since we were kids, and there he was.
00:39:51In a white forest riding in to save me.
00:39:54And then his father called and suggested we marry, and I really thought it was a dream come true.
00:40:01She was a stupid listen.
00:40:03I didn't think I'd get to see you after we left the hospital.
00:40:13I don't want to talk about any of that.
00:40:15I missed you.
00:40:17I missed you, too.
00:40:18I heard Natalie disappeared on you.
00:40:21She doesn't know what she's missing out on.
00:40:24I don't want to think about it right now.
00:40:26Not why I'm here with you.
00:40:27You're right.
00:40:28Let's not waste time.
00:40:30It's too precious.
00:40:33I just need to make the most of it.
00:40:39That reminds me.
00:40:40I have some paperwork for you to sign for your widow's pension.
00:40:43Oh, okay.
00:40:45Where do you want me to sign?
00:40:46Right here.
00:40:47Oh.
00:40:52Surprise, surprise.
00:40:53Your handwriting doesn't match the manuscript that you uploaded trying to prove that Natalie's book was yours.
00:40:57What are you talking about?
00:40:59Why don't you just admit it?
00:41:00You're the plagiarist, not Natalie.
00:41:06People's handwriting changes all the time.
00:41:08This doesn't prove anything.
00:41:09Natalie has dozens of manuscripts that are the exact same and prove that her book is hers.
00:41:13Your bullshit is not going to convince anyone of anything anymore.
00:41:15Why are you talking to me like this?
00:41:19Elder Tom trusted you out of everyone to take care of me.
00:41:22Don't bring Tom into this.
00:41:23He thought you were his best friend.
00:41:28That's why he made you promise on his deathbed that you would look out for me.
00:41:31So you owe it to him to take care of me.
00:41:33The only person I'm protecting now is Natalie, my wife.
00:41:36I've left her alone far too many times and now she's my number one priority.
00:41:38Got it.
00:41:39Are you seriously choosing her over me?
00:41:42Chloe, you have 24 hours to publicly apologize to Natalie, where I will be personally suing you for defamation and slander.
00:41:48Is that serious enough for you?
00:41:52Nice try.
00:41:56Claire downtown.
00:41:57We're rolling both ends.
00:41:5924 hours, Chloe.
00:42:09I'm coming for you, Natalie.
00:42:20Ready or not.
00:42:32What did he say?
00:42:34Um, he'll be here soon.
00:42:36Oh, good luck.
00:42:38I have to face him, Alicia.
00:42:39Whatever he has to say, I can't keep running from everything.
00:42:45Well, let's relax then.
00:42:50I should shower.
00:42:51Liam's going to be here soon.
00:42:52What are you going to say to him?
00:42:54I vote that you kick him in the balls and walk away.
00:42:58I am going to give him a chance to say he's peace.
00:43:00I've worked with Liam for two years.
00:43:02He's a great team leader, but he's absolutely the worst husband I have ever witnessed.
00:43:06You deserve so much better, girl.
00:43:10It's Liam.
00:43:11He's early.
00:43:11He's early.
00:43:11I did so much better.
00:43:19I did so much better.
00:43:39Alicia?
00:43:41Alicia?
00:43:43Oh my god, Alicia!
00:43:45Hold on, I'm here!
00:43:47Help is on the way!
00:43:49Hi, hi, I need an ambulance to the Red Hills Winery!
00:43:51My friend's been stabbed!
00:43:53Please hurry, there's blood everywhere!
00:43:55I don't know, I don't know!
00:43:57Wait, wait there, wait there!
00:44:09Liam's gone?
00:44:11Please don't like me, please don't like me!
00:44:13Please don't like me, please don't like me!
00:44:15It's okay, it's okay!
00:44:17I never thought I wouldn't be burned alive by a lot of fires,
00:44:21but it's been stabbed by someone!
00:44:23I have so many regrets, I know!
00:44:25I really don't want to die!
00:44:27I don't want to-
00:44:29Are you okay, you're gonna be fucked?
00:44:31Please stay with me, please stay with me, please stay with me!
00:44:33Please stay with me, please stay with me!
00:44:35No, no, no, no, no!
00:44:37Please stay with me, please stay with me!
00:44:39No, no, no, no, no!
00:44:41No!
00:44:43Natalie's been all over the news, apparently she's been stabbed!
00:44:47What?
00:44:53Alicia, please wake up!
00:44:55Don't leave me alone!
00:45:03I think we stopped the bleeding.
00:45:05I'm sorry, it was too much extensive damage.
00:45:07She lost too much blood.
00:45:09Lisa, I can't lose her, she's my best friend.
00:45:11Natalie, you're alive!
00:45:13Get out of here, you murder her!
00:45:15You killed her, you killed Alicia!
00:45:17No, Natalie, I was on a fire all night with the whole crew!
00:45:19I saw your car!
00:45:21No, listen to me, Alexander was with me the whole time!
00:45:23It was your car, I know it anywhere!
00:45:25I don't care what you think you saw!
00:45:27Natalie, I couldn't do something like that!
00:45:29You texted me, I gave you the address and you said you were coming!
00:45:31I didn't even have my phone with me all day!
00:45:33You're doing this to me, I know what I saw, I know what you texted!
00:45:35You killed Alicia because you thought she was me and you wanted to get rid of me so you could be with Chloe!
00:45:37Natalie, listen, you're not making any sense!
00:45:39Please, listen!
00:45:41Don't touch me! I will never forgive you for this!
00:45:43And I will spend the rest of my life making sure you pay for what you did to Alicia!
00:46:01Natalie, listen, I was at a fire all night, my car is at the station, my phone!
00:46:05Shit!
00:46:06My car keys and my phone, they were on my phone, somebody else could have taken them!
00:46:09No, it's due to this bullshit!
00:46:11Chloe was there when we got the call, Alexander and I had to roll!
00:46:13She might have taken them!
00:46:15Even if it was her, it is still your fault Alicia is dead!
00:46:18You let that poisonous psycho into our lives, this is all on you!
00:46:30I am so sorry, I'm so sorry!
00:46:32Alright, it was the biggest mistake of my life!
00:46:34I thought I could make you love me!
00:46:35You treated me like shit for three years and now my best friend is dead because of you!
00:46:39I hate you, Lea Blair!
00:46:43I will never want to see you again!
00:46:45I am going through with this divorce!
00:46:47This pathetic marriage is over!
00:46:51Please, you don't mean that! Give me a chance to fix this!
00:46:53Can you bring Alicia back to life?
00:46:54Because that's what it's going to take for me to even want to be in the same room as you!
00:46:57Do you understand what you have done?
00:46:58Alicia is dead!
00:47:00Hey!
00:47:01Hey, hey, hey!
00:47:02It's okay!
00:47:03I got you!
00:47:04Let her go!
00:47:05Back off!
00:47:06Can't you see she's upset?
00:47:07Yeah man, I'm trying to help!
00:47:08No, you've been a terrible husband to Natalie and you've hurt her over and over again.
00:47:11Why would she want to be near you?
00:47:13Okay, the least you could do is listen to her when she asks you to leave her alone!
00:47:17Maybe I've got to do something?
00:47:19I know.
00:47:20But it can't be you.
00:47:22Alright, her best friend is dead.
00:47:24If you want to do something, make sure the person who did this is calling you.
00:47:36Going somewhere?
00:47:37Liam!
00:47:38You scared me!
00:47:39How did you get in here?
00:47:40How does it matter?
00:47:42What matters is that you killed Alicia.
00:47:44I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:47:47You stole my phone.
00:47:48And my car.
00:47:49And you texted Natalie to find out where she was.
00:47:51And you went over there and killed Alicia thinking that it was Natalie.
00:47:54Why are you being so horrible to me?
00:47:56Is it enough that I just lost my husband?
00:47:58This has nothing to do with Tom.
00:48:00Well, you're the one that let him to the fire where he died.
00:48:03Okay?
00:48:04So, how do you think people are going to react when you're trying to blame me for your horrible crimes?
00:48:09You don't want to do that.
00:48:10I'll do whatever it takes to protect myself from your lies.
00:48:13My husband died a hero.
00:48:15Nobody's going to believe you over me.
00:48:17Tom didn't die a hero, Chloe.
00:48:19He had a drug problem.
00:48:21And he was high out of his mind the night he went in those fires.
00:48:23And that is why he died.
00:48:27Don't act like you didn't know.
00:48:29There's no way his addiction was that bad and you didn't notice.
00:48:31I didn't.
00:48:33Do you ever tell the truth?
00:48:34Why are you being so horrible to me?
00:48:36I did everything that I could to help you for Tom.
00:48:39I broke Natalie's heart a hundred times over to be there for you.
00:48:42And you repay me by lying to Natalie saying that I got you pregnant and by killing Alicia.
00:48:48Nobody's going to believe that.
00:48:49These are just stories that you're making up because your stupid bitch wife is going to divorce you and you don't want it to be your fault.
00:48:55You're right.
00:48:56I can't prove it.
00:48:58Yet.
00:48:59But I will.
00:49:00And in the meantime I'm going to be suing you for defaming Natalie.
00:49:03I'll see you in court.
00:49:06My husband died a hero.
00:49:08Nobody's going to believe you over me.
00:49:25Dad wanted to be here but I guess the hospital didn't let him out.
00:49:52He needs to focus on getting well after surgery.
00:49:56I'm sorry.
00:49:57I know I fucked up.
00:49:59I know Chloe was pouring poison into your ear about that baby being mine but that wasn't the case.
00:50:04It was Tom's.
00:50:06What does it matter now?
00:50:07I will do everything in my power to prove that Chloe did this if it's the last thing I do.
00:50:12You brought her into our home.
00:50:15You allowed her to steal my manuscript and destroy my reputation.
00:50:18You are the reason that she is not calling me.
00:50:22So am I.
00:50:23Natalie none of this is your fault.
00:50:24Yes it is.
00:50:25It is my fault for loving you for so long after you treated me like dirt.
00:50:28It is my fault for not leaving you years ago.
00:50:30If I had listened to her she would still be alive.
00:50:33Hey you can let her go.
00:50:35I've got her.
00:50:36I've got her too.
00:50:37She told you to leave her alone.
00:50:38You're only supposed to talk to her through her divorce lawyers.
00:50:39How about you stay out of our marriage?
00:50:40What marriage?
00:50:41You guys are getting a divorce soon.
00:50:42Maybe if you would back off we'd have a chance of fixing it.
00:50:43How about both of you leave me alone?
00:50:44I didn't mean to.
00:50:45I'm not interested in either of you.
00:50:46I have just buried my best friend.
00:50:47See?
00:50:48Back off.
00:50:49You first.
00:50:50I can't wait for our divorce to come through.
00:50:51I really can't.
00:50:52You're getting a divorce?
00:50:55You're getting a divorce?
00:50:56I don't care.
00:50:58I'm not interested in either of you.
00:50:59I have just buried my best friend.
00:51:00See?
00:51:01Back off.
00:51:02You first.
00:51:03I can't wait for our divorce to come through.
00:51:06I really can't.
00:51:08You're getting a divorce?
00:51:13You are getting a divorce?
00:51:19I didn't realize you two had so many problems.
00:51:30Yeah, our marriage has never really been a good one.
00:51:33I was hoping that it would be a contract marriage that turned into something else, but Liam always resented me.
00:51:39That's because I forced him into the marriage like a stubborn old man.
00:51:43You were just trying to help him, I understand that.
00:51:45After his mother died in the fire, Liam became obsessed in not letting it happen to anybody else.
00:51:53Well, he is the most dedicated fireman I know, but you're right, he leaves nothing for himself.
00:51:59Or me.
00:52:01I hope that having a wife and starting a family would change that.
00:52:05Well, maybe I'm just not enough of an incentive for him to change.
00:52:10Never say that, dear girl.
00:52:12He was lucky to have you.
00:52:14Now, tell me what would you want to happen next.
00:52:18And don't hold back on my account.
00:52:24For everything.
00:52:38What were you talking about for so long?
00:52:40I asked Natalie to tell me everything.
00:52:43And?
00:52:43And I told her to divorce you, you jackass.
00:52:47For the last three years of marriage, how many times has she faced this darkness alone while I was off playing the hero?
00:53:15Alicia.
00:53:15I miss you so much.
00:53:19I miss you so much.
00:53:36I'm so sorry you got caught up in my mess.
00:53:38Natalie, I've been thinking about you.
00:53:52I've been thinking about you.
00:53:53How are you?
00:53:54Yeah, um, I'm taking it one day at a time.
00:53:57But, um, listen, are you free to catch up tomorrow?
00:54:01I need a favor.
00:54:02Anything for you.
00:54:03Anything for you.
00:54:12Hi.
00:54:14I need you.
00:54:15Yeah, it's my honor.
00:54:16I'll always support you.
00:54:18Alicia's parents asked me to pack up her place.
00:54:34Is that what you wanted to ask me?
00:54:35Because I am more than happy to help.
00:54:37No, it's something else.
00:54:38Something important.
00:54:40We'll go grab it some drinks and then you can tell me out.
00:54:42What are you doing here?
00:54:50I have no question.
00:54:54Natalie hates cola.
00:54:56Sorry, buddy.
00:54:56Just wasted your money.
00:54:58How do you know that?
00:54:59I read your book.
00:55:00You prefer raspberry, right?
00:55:04People change, Liam.
00:55:05Do you mind?
00:55:16Alexandra's helping me with something private?
00:55:18Then I'd rather not talk about it from you.
00:55:19You don't want me here?
00:55:32Maybe I can help.
00:55:33Tell me what it's about.
00:55:34I don't know if I can trust you.
00:55:35She asked you to leave, Liam.
00:55:37Is it about Chloe?
00:55:38My legal team has worked on a case against her right now.
00:55:40It's about Tom.
00:55:41I looked up the rules to Chloe's widow's pension.
00:55:44If Tom's drug addiction comes out, she loses everything.
00:55:46You told her about the drugs?
00:55:48You're still trying to protect Chloe?
00:55:50Unbelievable.
00:55:51I'm trying to protect Tom, who's not here to defend himself.
00:55:54Tom was a good man, Natalie.
00:55:56He doesn't deserve to have his name dragged through the mud like this.
00:55:59And what about Alicia?
00:56:01That murderous bitch thinks she's gotten away with what she did.
00:56:04This is the only way I can make her pay.
00:56:06And I don't care if that means trashing Tom's precious reputation.
00:56:09There has to be another way.
00:56:11Wow.
00:56:13Look at the great team leader.
00:56:15Defending his man till the end.
00:56:16Alicia was on your team too, Liam.
00:56:19Um, hello, I'm still here.
00:56:34Anyone cares?
00:56:34Hey.
00:56:42You shouldn't have to stay in Alicia's house.
00:56:44I'm sure there's a lot of sad memories there.
00:56:46Moving back home.
00:56:47I'll just move in with my dad.
00:56:49Hey, watch it.
00:56:51You okay?
00:56:51Yeah.
00:56:52Um, all right, I'll move back home.
00:56:56Do you think that you could get home early tonight?
00:56:58Sure, I can stop and grab something for dinner, if you'd like it.
00:57:01I don't care about the food.
00:57:04We need to discuss the divorce.
00:57:15This is the toxicity screening from Tom's autopsy.
00:57:18I know you love Tom, but you protected him long enough.
00:57:21Give it to Natalie for me.
00:57:24She hates me too much right now to accept it from me.
00:57:25I thought you were Liam.
00:57:52He asked me to give this to you.
00:57:55This will prove Tom was in breach of the firefighters, but when he died.
00:58:00We'll cancel this pension straight away.
00:58:05I'd like to take you out to dinner sometime soon.
00:58:08Yeah, I'd like that.
00:58:16I can't believe Liam's going to blow me off again.
00:58:23I'm a fucking coward for not turning up.
00:58:25It's not going to change anything either.
00:58:27She's still going to divorce me, and I don't know how to stop it from happening.
00:58:37Where's Dad?
00:58:38He said it was an emergency.
00:58:39Yeah, I told him to call you because I knew you wouldn't come on your own.
00:58:44I'll save you the rating.
00:58:46I don't want the house.
00:58:47I don't want your car.
00:58:49And I don't want your money.
00:58:51I just want you out of my life as soon as possible.
00:58:52If I hadn't been such a bad husband, things would have been so different.
00:59:13It's looking beautiful.
00:59:14You're a favorite.
00:59:16You're my favorite.
00:59:17You're a good book.
00:59:28Really good.
00:59:30Better than this?
00:59:38Liam, can you please just sign so we can both get on with our lives?
00:59:42It doesn't have to be this way.
00:59:45Can't we try again?
00:59:47It is too late, Liam.
00:59:49You have hurt me too much.
00:59:52Just like the unforgettable scars this wildfire is leaving on Los Angeles.
00:59:59If you care about me at all, please, just give me my freedom.
01:00:12Where are you going?
01:00:41I don't know yet.
01:00:43Stay here.
01:00:45I want you to have this place.
01:00:46It's more of your home than mine anyways.
01:00:49I suppose that's true.
01:00:50You were never really here.
01:00:54All right.
01:00:56Yeah, I'll take it.
01:01:00So I guess this is goodbye then.
01:01:02Look, Natalie, I only signed those papers because you know you wanted me to.
01:01:10I want you to feel like you're in control of what happens next.
01:01:13I want it to be your choice.
01:01:14What are you talking about?
01:01:16Just give me three months.
01:01:19Let me help rebuild with the disaster victims.
01:01:21Maybe that'll change your mind about divorcing me.
01:01:23Three months?
01:01:23Okay, just one month.
01:01:25Just give me the chance to turn things around.
01:01:26And if after that you want to still file the divorce papers, then you can't.
01:01:30I can file these right now and this will all be over with.
01:01:33I know.
01:01:36I know all the horrible ways I treated you over the past three years.
01:01:39Will you give me that chance?
01:01:40I know all the time.
01:01:43Like, I know all the time.
01:01:49I know all the time.
01:01:55You want to break down?
01:02:04I know all the time.
01:02:05I know all the time.
01:02:06What the fuck are you doing here?
01:02:30You need to help me, Alexander.
01:02:32And why would I do that?
01:02:33Because of Tom.
01:02:34I know that he saved your life more than once
01:02:36when you were a rookie.
01:02:37What do you want?
01:02:37If Liam has any proof to discredit Tom,
01:02:39then I'll lose everything.
01:02:42And I've already lost Tom and the baby.
01:02:44If there's any proof that Tom's on drugs,
01:02:47I need to destroy it, okay?
01:02:50Think about it, okay?
01:02:51For Tom.
01:02:54Natalie.
01:02:55Tell Chloe you'll do it.
01:02:55She killed Alicia.
01:02:57Exactly.
01:02:57Tell her that you'll meet her here tomorrow
01:02:58in the radio room,
01:02:59and you'll hand over the evidence.
01:03:00And then what?
01:03:02It's time to make her pay.
01:03:06Finally, things are going my way.
01:03:29You wait for something?
01:03:31Alexander, what's up?
01:03:36I need to tell you something.
01:03:38It's about Natalie.
01:03:39And Chloe.
01:03:41Okay.
01:03:45Piece of shit, Alexander.
01:03:51Hello, Chloe.
01:03:52Looking for this?
01:03:53It's amazing that Tom could even walk that night.
01:04:07He had so many drugs in his system.
01:04:09Give it to me.
01:04:10Not until you admit that you killed Alicia
01:04:12and framed me for plagiarism.
01:04:14How do I know you're not wearing a wire?
01:04:15I know that they'll never be able to prosecute you
01:04:24because you got rid of all the evidence.
01:04:25But I need to hear you say it.
01:04:29All right.
01:04:30I killed Alicia.
01:04:31It was supposed to be you,
01:04:32but she had that stupid face mask on.
01:04:33You happy?
01:04:34Now they turn with the AI on.
01:04:36And the plagiarism.
01:04:37Call her, please.
01:04:39You are so fucking proud of your career.
01:04:42So, what better way to hurt you
01:04:44than to steal your book
01:04:45and tell everyone it's mine?
01:04:46Happy?
01:04:47Now give it.
01:04:48Sure.
01:04:50Why not?
01:04:51I've got enough witnesses to your confession now.
01:04:53I'm not supposed to copy you.
01:04:55You fucking bitch.
01:04:56I'm gonna kill you.
01:05:12It's over, Chloe.
01:05:17You're about to lose everything.
01:05:18Your home, your freedom,
01:05:20and all that sympathy
01:05:20you've been milking
01:05:21to someone's long-suffering widow.
01:05:23You can't let her do this to me, Liam.
01:05:24You and I are meant to be together.
01:05:26You can't choose this pathetic bitch over me.
01:05:28I never chose you.
01:05:29Not even once.
01:05:31Alexander.
01:05:32You know how hard it's been for me
01:05:33since Tom died, okay?
01:05:34Do not believe a word that they're saying.
01:05:36It's not true.
01:05:37Oh, my God.
01:05:38No one is gonna believe another word
01:05:39that comes out of your mouth again.
01:05:40You killed Alicia and your own child.
01:05:43You are a vicious, twisted monster,
01:05:44and they're gonna lock you up
01:05:46and throw away the key.
01:05:49No, Liam!
01:05:50I love you!
01:05:51Go to hell!
01:06:10Am I hurting you?
01:06:12No, it's...
01:06:13I...
01:06:14You should really go to the hospital.
01:06:16It's not that neat.
01:06:18She missed all the important stuff.
01:06:21It was close, though.
01:06:25Why did you do that?
01:06:27Why did you risk your life?
01:06:30I couldn't let her hurt you.
01:06:32It was too dangerous.
01:06:33What would your father do if you died?
01:06:35What about you?
01:06:37Would you care if I died?
01:06:41Of course I don't want you to die.
01:06:43That's not what I asked.
01:06:46You know,
01:06:47when we signed the divorce papers,
01:06:49I asked if you'd give me another chance.
01:06:51I didn't say no.
01:06:53So,
01:06:54I assumed that there was still hope for us.
01:06:56It's time to let us go, Liam.
01:07:04It's over.
01:07:22Chloe has to do the diminished capacity
01:07:23due to mental illness.
01:07:25Please tell me
01:07:25you're not letting her claim insanity.
01:07:27She has been diagnosed
01:07:28with multiple
01:07:29antisocial personality disorders,
01:07:30but the court has ordered
01:07:31that she be confined
01:07:33to a psychiatric institute
01:07:34indefinitely.
01:07:35But she could still get out.
01:07:37No, Mrs. Sinclair.
01:07:39It's highly unlikely
01:07:39she will ever be released.
01:07:41Then Alicia has her justice.
01:07:43I'll tell her mother.
01:07:47Hey, how did it go?
01:07:49Chloe's being sent
01:07:49to a psychiatric hospital.
01:07:51Probably for the rest of her life.
01:07:52That's great news.
01:07:54Listen,
01:07:54I...
01:07:55I'm so sorry I'm late.
01:08:00The wildfire is finally under control.
01:08:02Hopefully they'll hold our table for lunch.
01:08:05Am I too late?
01:08:06Has she already moved on
01:08:07with one of my best friends?
01:08:08Are you two officially together?
01:08:24Trying to make that happen.
01:08:27We should go.
01:08:27I don't know what to do, Dad.
01:08:44I've tried everything,
01:08:46but Natalie just won't
01:08:46let me back in.
01:08:47My son,
01:08:49I know you fought hard
01:08:51to destroy the wildfire,
01:08:53but you will never win
01:08:54a woman's heart
01:08:55back like that.
01:08:57I know I lost up.
01:08:58I know.
01:09:00You're my last hope, Dad.
01:09:01I will call her.
01:09:05I will call her.
01:09:05Even though you called her
01:09:17and got her to agree to come to this dinner tonight,
01:09:33but she didn't show up.
01:09:38Because I never called her,
01:09:40I wanted you to experience
01:09:41how your marriage has felt
01:09:42from Natalie's side
01:09:44all these years.
01:09:46Dad,
01:09:46I've known that for a while now.
01:09:47I didn't need this
01:09:48to be some lesson.
01:09:51I think it did.
01:10:03Because if Natalie does take you back,
01:10:06you can never hurt her again.
01:10:10Understand?
01:10:14Good.
01:10:15Now you have my support, my son.
01:10:17Hey, what happened to your wrist?
01:10:29Oh, I...
01:10:30It's just tendinitis
01:10:31from writing too much.
01:10:34What are you doing here?
01:10:36Dad kicked me out
01:10:37and the dorms
01:10:38at the fire station are full.
01:10:39I was wondering
01:10:39if I could crash here for the night.
01:10:43There must be some other place
01:10:44you can go.
01:10:45I'll have my wallet at home.
01:10:47Otherwise,
01:10:48I'd be at a hotel right now.
01:10:50It's a fortnight,
01:10:50I promise,
01:10:51and then
01:10:51I'll be gone tomorrow.
01:10:53Alright.
01:10:54You know where the bed linen is
01:10:56and there's a spare pillow
01:10:57in the closet.
01:10:59I can help you with those
01:10:59if you'd like.
01:11:00Yeah.
01:11:01That'd be good.
01:11:05I'm just gonna
01:11:06grab a quick shower.
01:11:08Okay.
01:11:15Natalie?
01:11:17Natalie, are you okay?
01:11:30I thought you slipped.
01:11:32No, I just
01:11:32knocked over the shampoo.
01:11:35If you want,
01:11:35I could...
01:11:36Oh, no, no, no.
01:11:36I'm good.
01:11:37Okay.
01:11:38I guess I'll just...
01:11:39How embarrassing.
01:11:46Something smells good.
01:11:47I figured you might be hungry.
01:11:50Do you want some help
01:11:51with that?
01:11:52Oh, no, no, no, no.
01:11:57You really have changed,
01:11:58haven't you?
01:12:00You know that saying,
01:12:01you don't know what you got
01:12:02until it's gone?
01:12:03Well,
01:12:04I get it.
01:12:05I had the greatest gift
01:12:06in the world
01:12:07and I threw it away.
01:12:12Hey,
01:12:12don't cry.
01:12:14It kills me.
01:12:25No, I don't want this.
01:12:27Sorry,
01:12:28it's just a kiss.
01:12:28We...
01:12:29I'm gonna go to bed.
01:12:37Gone to work.
01:12:58Breakfast is in the kitchen.
01:12:59Have a good day.
01:13:02And I've already reserved dinner.
01:13:04This time,
01:13:04none of us can miss it.
01:13:05Hey,
01:13:13came all this way
01:13:13just to see me?
01:13:14Yeah.
01:13:17Um,
01:13:18Alexander,
01:13:19I need to be honest.
01:13:22I'm not over Liam.
01:13:25You're
01:13:25getting back together with him?
01:13:27I don't know yet.
01:13:28I don't know anything,
01:13:29really.
01:13:31Except that it's not fair to you.
01:13:33I'll wait for you.
01:13:35You're worth it.
01:13:37I don't want you to do that.
01:13:38I know what it's like
01:13:39to wait for someone
01:13:40I can care for.
01:13:42I'm sorry if I hurt you.
01:13:48Don't be a stranger,
01:13:49okay?
01:13:50I told you,
01:13:51when you smile,
01:13:53it makes me feel like
01:13:54there's hope in everything.
01:13:54I don't know anything.
01:14:02Alexander,
01:14:03we just got word in.
01:14:04Part of the wildfire reignited
01:14:05and it's spreading towards the bridge.
01:14:07There's a residential area downwind.
01:14:08If we don't go now,
01:14:08it might be too late.
01:14:09Yeah,
01:14:09but our water's already lower.
01:14:10Hold on.
01:14:11Don't in now,
01:14:11it's too risky.
01:14:12I don't know.
01:14:12We gotta go.
01:14:13Wait,
01:14:13what's going on?
01:14:14Is it dangerous?
01:14:16Go home.
01:14:17I'm sorry,
01:14:17I won't make it for dinner.
01:14:19This is our job,
01:14:20our responsibility.
01:14:21I understand,
01:14:22Liam,
01:14:22but please come back safe.
01:14:23There's still so much left
01:14:24to talk about.
01:14:28I don't know how it all would take
01:14:29for us to get this fire out.
01:14:30There's so much
01:14:30that's changed between us,
01:14:31hasn't it?
01:14:33Wait for me.
01:14:34When I come back,
01:14:35can we try again?
01:14:38Long's got it.
01:14:38Let's go.
01:14:53Better?
01:15:04Much.
01:15:06We need to talk about these.
01:15:08We've been married for three years,
01:15:09but we never really knew each other,
01:15:11did we?
01:15:12No,
01:15:13we didn't.
01:15:14But that's different now,
01:15:16isn't it?
01:15:18Natalie,
01:15:18I once asked
01:15:19if you would care
01:15:20if I died.
01:15:21You never really gave me the answer.
01:15:23The answer is yes,
01:15:25but...
01:15:26I know I've hurt you,
01:15:33and I've messed up
01:15:34so many chances.
01:15:35I promise I know
01:15:36how to be a good husband
01:15:37for you now.
01:15:38I can cherish you
01:15:39the way you deserve.
01:15:40I believe you, Liam.
01:15:41I hope we can truly
01:15:42be happy now.
01:15:43I see you,
01:15:45madly,
01:15:45and I love you so much.
01:15:48I love you too,
01:15:48probably too much
01:15:50for my own good.
01:15:59So, Liam,
01:16:00will there never be despair
01:16:01like the wildfires
01:16:02between us again?
01:16:03No,
01:16:04sadly.
01:16:05Just because the fires
01:16:06have burnt out
01:16:06does not mean love
01:16:07ever will.
01:16:15I love you too,
01:16:16but I love you too.
01:16:17I love you too.
