00:00:00It's a battle of opposing forces.
00:00:03Summer Fling is my professor.
00:00:07Hey!
00:00:09She's not alone.
00:00:15After Ally, I told myself I'd never fall for anyone again.
00:00:19Then you showed up.
00:00:21And suddenly, I want more.
00:00:27Summer felt like a dream.
00:00:28But it's time to go back to reality.
00:00:31Stay away from me.
00:00:33Come on with that.
00:00:34You don't get to ask about my personal life.
00:00:36I can do whatever I want.
00:00:38And you will answer.
00:00:39Did you ever ask why she picked you?
00:00:42Because you were her golden ticket.
00:00:45Who used his position to silence a girl?
00:00:48I never even touched her.
00:00:53I'm trying to help you, Amy.
00:00:54I don't need your help!
00:00:55She was crossing the line!
00:00:57Nick will be in my bed tonight.
00:00:59Not yours.
00:01:01I want to start over, okay?
00:01:03It's too late, Nick.
00:01:04It's too late, Nick.
00:01:16Summer felt like a dream.
00:01:18But it's time to go back to reality.
00:01:19Oh, look.
00:01:20It's my favorite charity case.
00:01:22How does it feel to have a free ride while the rest of us actually pay to be here?
00:01:31What class are you guys headed to?
00:01:33Like astronomy or something?
00:01:35Me too.
00:01:37Yay!
00:01:38No more distractions.
00:01:39No more distractions.
00:01:41Just graduation on my mind.
00:01:50Oh my God!
00:01:51Aren't you, like, way too hot to be a professor?
00:01:53No, I'm actually your TA.
00:01:54Yes.
00:01:55Hi, Annie.
00:01:56You two know each other?
00:01:57No.
00:01:58You could say we're pretty familiar.
00:01:59The worst X of my life is the TA of my mandatory course.
00:02:00This literally can't get any worse.
00:02:02Oh my God.
00:02:03Take it back.
00:02:04It could be worse.
00:02:05A lot.
00:02:07My summer fling is my professor.
00:02:13Oh, look at that little kitty cat.
00:02:16Oh, look at that little kitty cat.
00:02:18Oh, my God.
00:02:20Oh, my God.
00:02:21Oh, my God.
00:02:22Yeah.
00:02:23Oh, my God.
00:02:24Oh, my God.
00:02:26Oh, my God.
00:02:29Oh, my God.
00:02:30Oh, my God.
00:02:31Look at that little kitty cat, I bet she can purr me out of the hole.
00:02:40Sitting all alone?
00:02:41That's sad.
00:02:42Come on, we bought you a drink.
00:02:44I'm okay, thank you.
00:02:46Oh, dependent woman, I like it.
00:02:49You want to get out of here and have some fun?
00:02:51I'm waiting on a friend.
00:02:53We can be friends.
00:02:54Ain't I a good friend?
00:02:55Yeah.
00:02:56Come on, girls are dressed like that, sit at the bar alone.
00:03:00Hey.
00:03:03She's not alone.
00:03:06Who the fuck are you?
00:03:07I'm a friend.
00:03:08No, you're not.
00:03:14Get your boy and get the fuck out.
00:03:23You should stay here a while.
00:03:26Until your friend arrives, in case those guys come back.
00:03:29Oh.
00:03:30Just make me feel better.
00:03:38So, what's the occasion?
00:03:40Just hanging out.
00:03:42So this friend, it's getting kinda late.
00:03:47There is no friend.
00:03:48But you knew that, didn't you?
00:03:49Why did you offer to sit with me?
00:03:50Looks like you needed someone.
00:03:51Not those guys, obviously.
00:03:52But someone.
00:03:53I caught my boyfriend cheating on me.
00:03:54So I came here to...
00:03:55Get revenge.
00:03:56I wanted to feel good for once.
00:03:57Sometimes I just want to be touched to be close to someone.
00:04:01But it always gets complicated.
00:04:02I just...
00:04:03Why can't it be easy?
00:04:16Who says it can't be?
00:04:17Who says it can't be?
00:04:18How?
00:04:19No names.
00:04:20No personal information.
00:04:21No feelings.
00:04:22Screw it.
00:04:23Okay.
00:04:24Okay.
00:04:25Okay.
00:04:26Okay.
00:04:27Okay.
00:04:29All right.
00:04:30What?
00:04:31Why can't it be easy?
00:04:32Who says it can't be?
00:04:33Why can't it be easy?
00:04:34Who says it can't be?
00:04:35How?
00:04:36No names.
00:04:37No personal information.
00:04:38And...
00:04:39No feelings.
00:04:40Screw it.
00:04:42Okay.
00:04:43Okay.
00:04:44Okay?
00:04:58Astronomy is a battle of opposing forces, binary stars locked in an endless gravitational
00:05:13dance that can last for over a billion years, staying in perfect balance.
00:05:18But sometimes one pulls too hard and the balance breaks.
00:05:28One star becomes dominant, the other collapses.
00:05:45But worse, it explodes.
00:05:54Not all binary stars end in disaster, though.
00:05:58Some stay in perfect retirement.
00:06:14I don't share well, Nick.
00:06:17You should know that by now.
00:06:19Some forces bring us together.
00:06:22Some tear us apart.
00:06:23The key to this class and to life is knowing which is which.
00:06:31I could just tell him.
00:06:33I want to see where this goes.
00:06:35Hey.
00:06:40I wanted to...
00:06:42One second.
00:06:45What?
00:06:46I just wanted to hear your voice one last time.
00:06:49I don't know what the hell are you talking about.
00:06:51I'm tired, Nick.
00:06:52I don't want to do this anymore.
00:06:54What did you...
00:06:55Fuck.
00:06:58What happened?
00:06:58I got to go.
00:06:59A family thing.
00:07:00Do you want me to go with you?
00:07:02No.
00:07:02No, no.
00:07:03We'll talk later.
00:07:05Yeah, sure.
00:07:13Ellie.
00:07:14Ellie, come on.
00:07:15Talk to me.
00:07:15Just keep an eye on her for a couple of hours.
00:07:25She should be fine.
00:07:27I'll see her.
00:07:43It didn't mean anything to me.
00:07:44I never want to see you again.
00:07:59It's over.
00:08:00Please don't bother me anymore.
00:08:03Annie.
00:08:04Annie.
00:08:04Annie.
00:08:14And here we go.
00:08:27Yeah, he's always...
00:08:28He's always doing that.
00:08:29He was the guy in the back of his body.
00:08:30What are you going to do with these kids?
00:08:31Let's finish this with my legs.
00:08:32Oh.
00:08:32I miss Collins.
00:08:34A moment.
00:08:34I thought you'd be in Minneapolis.
00:08:42Not the plane break you wanted, I guess.
00:08:45I wanted...
00:08:46Okay, like you said, it meant nothing.
00:08:48I couldn't agree more.
00:08:50Oh.
00:08:52Are we interrupting something?
00:08:54Is that all, Miss Collins?
00:08:55Yes, thank you.
00:09:02Stay away from me.
00:09:05Come on, Miss Collins.
00:09:08This semester is going to kill me.
00:09:10Have a nice day.
00:09:24Oh.
00:09:25Oh.
00:09:25I'm so sorry.
00:09:27I'm sorry.
00:09:28My hands get a little shaky.
00:09:30Happens to me all the time.
00:09:32Um, Emily, can I get another oat milk latte for Miss Thompson?
00:09:35Well, here, let me pay you.
00:09:36No, no, you stay safe, and we'll have that for you at the end of the bar.
00:09:41So sweet.
00:09:49Uh, what the hell are you doing?
00:09:51Oh, I was just...
00:09:52Oh, you were just...
00:09:53I'm sorry, are we running a charity now?
00:09:55I was helping a customer.
00:09:56Yeah, well, you know what?
00:09:57Having old people hanging around makes us look like a nursing home.
00:10:01Oh, am I boring you?
00:10:03And you're stealing now?
00:10:04Well, I just paid for it.
00:10:06Yeah, sure.
00:10:07This time, next thing you know, you're pocketing the cash, slipping out extra pastries.
00:10:11That's not...
00:10:12Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:10:13Okay?
00:10:15Got my eyes on you.
00:10:16Are you following me?
00:10:27Okay, arrogant.
00:10:29It's the only decent coffee shop on campus.
00:10:31Sure.
00:10:32You gonna take my order?
00:10:34What can I get for you?
00:10:37Americano.
00:10:38With loads of cream and sugar?
00:10:40You're no fun.
00:10:51Here.
00:10:58Oh, God.
00:10:59When I'm with you, I don't want anything else.
00:11:11But I can't afford to fall for you.
00:11:14I'm going back to your nervous.
00:11:16You...
00:11:16Work.
00:11:20When?
00:11:22Two weeks.
00:11:23Then I guess I'll have to make the most of it.
00:11:30Nick.
00:11:32Coffee first.
00:11:34You'll have your coffee.
00:11:35Okay.
00:11:35Okay.
00:11:35All right.
00:11:49Okay.
00:11:49Let's go.
00:11:49He'll be the energy.
00:12:19Too much?
00:12:33What?
00:12:35How much?
00:12:37Um, $4.50.
00:12:41Yeah.
00:12:43Church.
00:12:45Hello, what's up, bro?
00:12:47Oh, you've got to be kidding me.
00:12:49Hello, what's up, bro?
00:12:54Sam, I, uh, need all those papers graded by tonight.
00:12:57Aye, aye, Captain.
00:13:00So, you work here, too.
00:13:02Wherever do you find the time?
00:13:04How'd you find me?
00:13:06Just wandering by.
00:13:07I think it's destiny.
00:13:08I don't think so.
00:13:10What can I get for you?
00:13:12Mm-hmm.
00:13:14Let's do an iced almond milk matcha with two pumps of vanilla, extra cold foam, and light ice.
00:13:20Actually, make it extra ice.
00:13:23And oat milk instead of almond.
00:13:26Actually, make it all hot.
00:13:28Great.
00:13:29This place is kind of a dump.
00:13:30Oh, that's nice.
00:13:35You know, now that you work here, I think I'm going to come back all the time.
00:13:40Please, please don't.
00:13:43Okay, so now that we know that, how did we first measure the mass of the earth, Victoria?
00:13:47Okay, uh, well, we started with the oceans, and...
00:13:55You sure did.
00:13:56Collins?
00:14:00Newton's law of universal gravitation.
00:14:03That's correct.
00:14:07Victoria, how did Newton first propose that?
00:14:13Uh, well, you know, naturally, it would, um...
00:14:17Okay.
00:14:18Hey, um...
00:14:19Back to Collins.
00:14:21Newton posited that objects in free fall would fall closer to massive, greater objects,
00:14:27that they would be pulled closer.
00:14:31Closer.
00:14:31Oh, my God.
00:14:48Annie, I'm so sorry.
00:14:50It's fine.
00:14:52Oh, totally not going to do that.
00:14:55You really think you're better than us, don't you?
00:15:08What?
00:15:09No.
00:15:10Maybe give someone else a chance to answer.
00:15:15He asks me.
00:15:16Daddy's a dream addict.
00:15:19Mommy ran away.
00:15:20No wonder you get all the awards.
00:15:25I won that research grant last year because of my project proposal, not because I know
00:15:29that you have everyone else fooled, but not me.
00:15:37I can see that you are just white trash.
00:15:40Who needs attention?
00:15:43Sad.
00:15:44As you know, each semester I choose a student assistant for the class.
00:15:56Some of you put effort into your essays.
00:15:59Some of you definitely did not.
00:16:01But there was one that stood out the most.
00:16:04Annie Collins.
00:16:06I'm offering you the position.
00:16:07Any reason you can't accept it?
00:16:14No.
00:16:19Yeah, well, you could have said no.
00:16:22You put me on the spot.
00:16:26I'm on the short list for the Astro Scholarship.
00:16:28I can't afford any scandal.
00:16:31Well, I'd ask the people on that scholarship committee and put in a good word.
00:16:35I don't need your help.
00:16:37Did you get the essay job?
00:16:43Did we just...
00:16:44Could you stop with me?
00:16:51To yourself.
00:16:54Annie, your essay was one of the best I've read in years.
00:16:58You have a 4.0 GPA, multiple awards, and every professor you've worked under has written
00:17:03you glowing recommendations.
00:17:04That's why I picked you.
00:17:06Now, I can pick Troy, who misspelled astronomy three times.
00:17:12But your call.
00:17:19If anyone wrote a better essay, I'm not taking the job.
00:17:24I wouldn't expect anything less.
00:17:25He was right.
00:17:38Either they didn't turn it in or were not sincere.
00:17:41Except victorious.
00:17:43But it's too well done.
00:17:44Like, as if an AI wrote it.
00:17:46Trust me.
00:18:04Good girl.
00:18:11Tell me a secret.
00:18:24I've never said I love you to anyone.
00:18:30Not even your mom or dad.
00:18:35They're gone.
00:18:37What happened?
00:18:39What happened?
00:18:41Car accident.
00:18:50And...
00:18:51And I'm sorry.
00:18:55Don't stop.
00:18:57Come on, Annie.
00:19:18You know, I don't bite.
00:19:25Unless you want me to.
00:19:26Sam.
00:19:29I need hard copies of every astronomy journal published last month, categorized by topic.
00:19:33Are you serious?
00:19:34I mean, that would take me all day.
00:19:36Can you have Annie do it?
00:19:37Annie needs to be in class.
00:19:38I need to get something from my office.
00:19:47The home in.
00:19:55Did you date him?
00:19:58What do you care?
00:19:59So it's your type.
00:20:01Clean cut, tall American golden boys.
00:20:05Expect a better from you.
00:20:06Well, I slept with you, so not really, don't you think?
00:20:11And you don't get to ask about my personal life.
00:20:14I can do whatever I want.
00:20:16And you will answer.
00:20:20Because you belong to me.
00:20:21I should probably...
00:20:37Yeah, you should.
00:20:38Um, I'll set up the presentation.
00:20:40Was there anything you need me to bring?
00:20:42What?
00:20:42You said you needed something.
00:20:46Right.
00:20:47Uh, yeah.
00:20:49Thanks.
00:21:02Annie and Nick?
00:21:04Are they?
00:21:05I forgot my USB.
00:21:13Could I borrow yours really quick?
00:21:16I want to move something from Troy's to mine.
00:21:18Okay, just...
00:21:19I need it back for my presentation.
00:21:20Just...
00:21:21Can you give it right back after, please?
00:21:27Thanks, babe.
00:21:28You're the best.
00:21:29Let's get started.
00:21:31Collins, you're up first.
00:21:32Okay.
00:21:35Thanks.
00:21:49Annie, you're looking kind of flushed.
00:21:52Have you been drinking?
00:21:57Collins, do you need a backup?
00:22:00No, that was my only copy.
00:22:02Oh, no!
00:22:03I thought if you were an SA, you'd be more prepared.
00:22:07Oh, poor baby.
00:22:09But I guess we should just move on then, right?
00:22:13No, I...
00:22:14I can try to do it without my slides.
00:22:16I'll...
00:22:16I'll do my best.
00:22:17Okay.
00:22:18Okay.
00:22:18Okay.
00:22:18Okay.
00:22:18Okay.
00:22:33Well done, Collins.
00:22:40Who would you like to go next?
00:22:42I'll go.
00:22:44Victoria, since you're so confident, why don't you present from memory as well?
00:22:48Um, I'd need my notes.
00:22:53Well, if you'd spent more time preparing and less time tearing others down, you wouldn't
00:22:57need your notes.
00:22:58Everything feels weird and hazy.
00:23:09Oh, sorry.
00:23:12Nick!
00:23:13Nick, hey, hottie.
00:23:16How are you doing?
00:23:17You want to do me?
00:23:20Because I would so be into that.
00:23:23What?
00:23:23Mm-hmm.
00:23:25Oh, what the hell are you doing?
00:23:27Just missing you.
00:23:31Nick, why...
00:23:32Why did you leave?
00:23:34I thought...
00:23:35We were so good together.
00:23:39Yeah, but you love me.
00:23:40After Allie, I told myself I'd never fall for anyone again.
00:24:03It was easier that way, but then you showed up.
00:24:05And suddenly, I want more.
00:24:08I like you.
00:24:08I like you, too.
00:24:19Oh.
00:24:21You were drooling.
00:24:25Sorry.
00:24:29I didn't say anything weird, did I?
00:24:34No.
00:24:35Okay.
00:24:36You just fell set.
00:24:37Good.
00:24:39So why were you drunk in my class?
00:24:44So why were you drunk in my class?
00:24:48I think someone put something in my drink.
00:24:50I think you should report that.
00:24:52Oh, it's fine.
00:24:54Are you kidding me?
00:24:57I don't want to make a big deal out of anything.
00:24:59Plus, I think I already know who did it.
00:25:02Eddie, that's a terrible reason to do anything.
00:25:10You need to protect yourself.
00:25:11I'm protecting myself.
00:25:12Yeah, because ignoring bullies always gets them to stop.
00:25:15No, I'm taking my battles.
00:25:17Fine.
00:25:18But if I find out who did it...
00:25:19Yeah, yeah, you go all big bad wolf.
00:25:30What the hell am I doing?
00:25:32He left me.
00:25:35I'm gonna go.
00:25:37Wait.
00:25:40Yeah.
00:25:42You do that.
00:25:49Uh, here is this bag for you, and that'll be the end of the bar.
00:25:55Hi, what can I get for you?
00:25:57Hi, um, a sparkling water.
00:26:00All right.
00:26:01That'll be six dollars.
00:26:06Uh, let me grab your change.
00:26:08Oh, no. Keep it.
00:26:10You look like you need it.
00:26:12Thanks.
00:26:14I guess.
00:26:19You following me again?
00:26:24Your girl Annie, she's real charming and sweet, isn't she?
00:26:33Your girl Annie, she's real charming and sweet, isn't she?
00:26:38But did you ever ask why she picked you?
00:26:42Because you were her golden ticket.
00:26:44Her dad's a junkie.
00:26:47Her mom walked out years ago.
00:26:49I mean, they're a fucking mess.
00:26:51But you seem to think she just stumbled into your bed.
00:26:55Come on.
00:26:57I don't believe you.
00:26:58Oh, okay.
00:26:59Well, see for yourself.
00:27:01Is that bag for you?
00:27:02And your coffee will be at the end of the bar.
00:27:17Did you just charge me $300 for an Americano?
00:27:24What the hell?
00:27:25Why was I charged $200?
00:27:27Everyone checked their banking apps.
00:27:29Are they scamming us?
00:27:30This is a scheme that's going around.
00:27:32I can't believe you're one of them.
00:27:35No, I...
00:27:37All right, one second, please.
00:27:40Explain this right now.
00:27:42You've been stealing from customers this whole time, haven't you?
00:27:44That's why the books don't add up.
00:27:46No, I haven't, I swear.
00:27:48Oh, really?
00:27:51We'll see about that.
00:27:52Stop it!
00:28:02You're coming with me.
00:28:04Let go of me, that hurts!
00:28:05Yeah, you know what?
00:28:06You're not going anywhere.
00:28:07I'm calling the cops.
00:28:08You're not going anywhere.
00:28:15Who the hell are you?
00:28:16Someone who can sue this place into the ground for falsely accusing an employee.
00:28:19It's not false.
00:28:22Huh.
00:28:23That's funny.
00:28:24Because it's the exact same issue that's happened at a few other cafes this week.
00:28:28Almost like a scam is going around.
00:28:29Wait.
00:28:30I think my friend got overcharged at a different place, too.
00:28:33Shame.
00:28:35Oh, well.
00:28:36You're fired anyway.
00:28:38Why?
00:28:39Because I said so.
00:28:40No.
00:28:41She quits.
00:28:42Doesn't matter.
00:28:43Call them the police anyway.
00:28:45Go ahead.
00:28:47I'll call my friend, the owner of this place.
00:28:50And I'll tell him exactly how you treat your employees.
00:28:53You wouldn't.
00:28:55Apologize to her.
00:28:56I'm sorry.
00:28:57Not to me.
00:28:58To her.
00:28:59I'm sorry.
00:29:00Look, I'd really like to keep my job here, if you'd let me.
00:29:17Sure.
00:29:18Okay.
00:29:19I can get this all back up again.
00:29:20Just give me a second.
00:29:21And what?
00:29:22You're not staying here.
00:29:23We're leaving.

00:29:25Outside.
00:29:26Now.

00:36:53What's stopping him from just leaving me again? He's just a horny guy.
00:36:58Move.
00:36:59We used to be so close, remember? I mean, we used to be so close. Now you're close to someone else. Like Nick.
00:37:08I don't know what you're talking about.
00:37:17Is Nick the reason why he won't go out with me?
00:37:21No one will believe you. You can't prove anything.
00:37:26Not yet.
00:37:27Hey, Amy, can you, uh, help me in the office for something?
00:37:33Gladly.
00:37:34Listen.
00:37:35Listen.
00:37:36After last time, I just need to know that you're serious.
00:37:41What do you mean?
00:37:42I saw you with Sam, okay?
00:37:43And look, I know I'm a lot of things. I know that.
00:37:44But I don't appreciate being treated like I'm nothing.
00:37:45Treated like nothing.
00:37:46Treated like nothing.
00:37:48First of all, no.
00:37:50What do you mean?
00:37:51I saw you with Sam, okay?
00:37:54And look, I know I'm a lot of things. I know that. But I don't appreciate being treated like I'm nothing.
00:38:09Treated like nothing?
00:38:11First of all, no.
00:38:12I don't appreciate being treated like I'm nothing.
00:38:13Treated like nothing.
00:38:16First of all, no. Nothing is happening with Sam, and even if it was, you don't have a right to tell me who to be with.
00:38:21Well, I think after what just happened, no.
00:38:22It didn't matter last time.
00:38:24We spent an entire summer, and you still ended it, because apparently you don't care.
00:38:27Okay, hold on, hold on.
00:38:28Nothing matters, and...
00:38:29You keep saying, I ended it.
00:38:31Why do you keep saying that?
00:38:32Because you did.
00:38:36You keep saying, I ended it.
00:38:38Why do you keep saying that?
00:38:39Because you did.
00:38:41I ended it?
00:38:45What is that?
00:38:46You're really something else.
00:38:47You know that?
00:38:51It's over.
00:38:52Please don't bother me anymore.
00:38:54I didn't write this.
00:38:55What do you mean you didn't write it?
00:38:58I mean that that's not my handwriting.
00:39:03Okay, then why'd you block my number?
00:39:10It didn't mean anything to me.
00:39:12I never said that.
00:39:20Well, unless somebody else had your phone.
00:39:29Ellie.
00:39:34Your ex-wife?
00:39:35I was at her apartment the other day.
00:39:44She's very...
00:39:47mentally unwell.
00:39:50Pills everywhere.
00:39:53I lost track of my phone.
00:39:54So...
00:39:54So...
00:39:55You really do...
00:40:00like me?
00:40:03Like you?
00:40:06Annie, I was starting to...
00:40:07I'm leaving for a moment.
00:40:11Shh.
00:40:15Love you.
00:40:20Any callers?
00:40:21Yeah?
00:40:23I didn't order anything.
00:40:24Okay.
00:40:37Okay.
00:40:47Holy shit.
00:40:48I got the scholarship.
00:40:50I got the scholarship.
00:40:51Congratulations.
00:40:57What did you do?
00:40:59Nothing.
00:41:00I swear.
00:41:01You deserved everything you worked for.
00:41:04I just, uh...
00:41:05got the news a little earlier.
00:41:07The dress?
00:41:09Well, that I couldn't resist.
00:41:13Annie.
00:41:14You should know I'm not a quitter.
00:41:16You'll slip up,
00:41:17and I'll take you back.
00:41:18Okay.
00:41:21Oh, wait a minute.
00:41:30Wait, whoa, whoa.
00:41:34Nice dress.
00:41:36I must have a good taste.
00:41:39You're not so bad yourself.
00:41:42Trying to impress somebody?
00:41:45Actually, yes.
00:41:45Yes.
00:41:46You're drinking a lot?
00:42:12Are you nervous?
00:42:14I'm human.
00:42:16So, yes.
00:42:18I know a way to relax.
00:42:21Follow me.
00:42:22No way.
00:42:24Trust me.
00:42:36No way.
00:42:37What if somebody sees?
00:42:38Do you want to think I dragged you out here to hook up?
00:42:41Yeah.
00:42:43Yeah.
00:42:45You still follow me.
00:42:48Interesting.
00:42:50Okay, then how am I supposed to calm down?
00:43:01Okay.
00:43:02Just focus on my voice.
00:43:06No one else is here.
00:43:09Because that's not distracting at all.
00:43:15Is this part of the exercise, too?
00:43:20Maybe.
00:43:21Is this part of the exercise?
00:43:22What?
00:43:29You're such an idiot.
00:43:33I'm sorry.
00:43:35I'm an Australian.
00:43:37I love была.
00:43:45I love this.
00:43:46I love this.
00:43:48I love this.
00:43:48I love this.
00:43:48I love this.
00:43:49I love this.
00:43:49I love this.
00:43:49I love this.
00:43:50I love this.
00:43:50I love this.
00:43:51I love this.
00:43:51Hi, first of all, I'd love to thank everyone here today who made this talk.
00:44:21Sneaking out to see your little protege? Sneaking out to see your little protege? Out of my way, Ellie. You know, most people here see us as a unit. Our families, our history. I don't give a damn. I know what you did. Well, do tell. You played us. The goodbye note, the wrong text. It was only you. That's quite the acquisition. Do you have any proof? Yeah, I didn't think so.
00:44:51Well, the most important part is that she got the scholarship because I allowed it. No, she got it because she worked her ass off for it. And yet, one word for me, and she could lose it all.
00:45:07You should be nicer to me than Nicholas.
00:45:16Nick, come here, Nick, come here. Someone else should be over here.
00:45:19Come here, come here.
00:45:20Hi, I'm Ellie Astor.
00:45:34I'm Ellie Astor.
00:45:37Nick's ex?
00:45:38As much as I want to tear her hair out, it's her name on the scholarship I just won.
00:45:42Astor, as in the Astor scholarship?
00:45:45Yeah, my family funds a lot of the university.
00:45:48Oh, I should probably say thank you.
00:45:51Oh, I'm sure you worked hard to get it.
00:45:53I, um, I saw you with Nick.
00:45:56I don't know what you're talking about.
00:45:59Look, sleeping your way to the top might work for some circles, but not mine.
00:46:05You're just a fling, Annie.
00:46:08Nick assured me I wasn't getting any preferential treatment.
00:46:12Oh, did he ever tell you about the first student that he slept with?
00:46:18I don't believe you.
00:46:19You should talk to Nick about Nicole the next time you spread your legs for him.
00:46:24Cheers.
00:46:28Just so you know, Nick will be in my bed tonight, not yours.
00:46:42Rough night?
00:46:50How do you always find me?
00:46:52You're predictable.
00:46:55Come on, Annie.
00:46:56Can you really say that Nick makes you happy?
00:46:59We're not together.
00:47:00How does he even fit into your life?
00:47:03I mean, you like stability.
00:47:05You want a future.
00:47:06Not some messy, self-destructive fling with a guy who has nothing real to offer you.
00:47:12You play it safe.
00:47:14You have a secure job, a debt-free life.
00:47:18You don't like risks.
00:47:20You want something solid.
00:47:23And that's what Nick is.
00:47:26A risk.
00:47:27He's wrong.
00:47:32I do take risks.
00:47:33I took one the night I met Nick and maybe it was stupid, maybe it was a mistake.
00:47:37But I never regretted it.
00:47:39If I walk away now, I'll never know if I was right about him.
00:47:45I don't need your advice, Sam.
00:47:52What the hell are we doing here?
00:47:53Who's Nicole?
00:47:55Don't lie to me.
00:47:56Nicole was just a student, okay?
00:47:58She had a crush on me, but Ellie saw an opportunity.
00:48:02What'd you do?
00:48:04When Ellie wanted out, she used Nicole.
00:48:08Nicole kissed me, Ellie got photos, that's it.
00:48:11How am I supposed to believe you when I don't even know you?
00:48:14Annie, you do know me.
00:48:15No, I don't.
00:48:16I know the sweet guy from the beach who made stupid jokes,
00:48:18knocked his professor in a tux with an evil ex-wife and scandal about to happen.
00:48:22Then why are you still here?
00:48:25Nothing may be.
00:48:27I'm not.
00:48:27It's easy for me.
00:48:28No.
00:48:28It was easy for me.
00:48:30Hit me with her.
00:48:31Great.
00:48:31We might not even know you.
00:48:32Jimmy is not under the name of your dad.
00:48:33I don't want to miss you any other day.
00:48:34I won't want to miss you, him.
00:48:35But you're not under the name of someone.
00:48:35I didn't want to miss me.
00:48:36It's fine.
00:48:37It's fine.
00:48:37I was like Anna.
00:48:38Well, I don't want to miss me.
00:48:38I got to miss you.
00:48:39It's fine.
00:48:40It's fine.
00:48:40It's fine.
00:48:41It's fine.
00:48:42It's fine.
00:48:43It's fine.
00:48:43You're not doing too, right?
00:48:44Oh, my God.
00:49:14There.
00:49:20Now you can go back out there.
00:49:22Like this?
00:49:25Everyone should know.
00:49:33Annie Collins is ruining something that belongs to me.
00:49:37And I know you've been watching her.
00:49:40What exactly do you want from us?
00:49:42I want her drowning in rumors.
00:49:46Paranoid.
00:49:48Isolated.
00:49:49Questioning her own reality.
00:49:52Right?
00:49:53Do what you do best.
00:49:55And don't disappoint me.
00:49:58Why did you bring me here?
00:50:08Just trust me.
00:50:09Yeah.
00:50:09You deserve something beautiful with that.
00:50:27And I wanted to say something even more.
00:50:30You've...
00:50:31Under the stars.
00:50:34That's really corny.
00:50:35I think it worked.
00:50:39Yeah.
00:50:49What does space sound like?
00:50:53It's silent because it's a vacuum.
00:50:56There's no air for sound to travel through.
00:50:59Good.
00:51:07Because I want you to pay attention to me.
00:51:09Oh, my God.
00:51:23Did you see the pictures?
00:51:24Yes.
00:51:29I always knew she looked sketchy.
00:51:31Before you tell me to fuck off, I'm here for business.
00:51:57Ellie, our business is over.
00:51:58Well, you might want to take a look at that.
00:52:01What the fuck is that?
00:52:02Evidence.
00:52:03Receipts.
00:52:05Proof that your little Annie isn't some doe-eyed innocent.
00:52:09Go on.
00:52:16This is what she does.
00:52:18She finds vulnerable men, warrants her way in, and bleeds them dry.
00:52:23Okay, even if she has made some mistakes, that's not who she is now.
00:52:28She lost her parents, and she's doing the best she can on her own.
00:52:31Oh, sweetheart.
00:52:34She didn't lose her parents.
00:52:36They're alive and well in Minneapolis.
00:52:39Just two junkies running a scam.
00:52:42She really didn't tell you any of this?
00:52:46Well, something to think about.
00:52:49Oh, and congratulations on Researcher of the Year.
00:52:55I know it's not official yet, but they'll make the announcement at the event.
00:53:00I'll see you there.
00:53:11I knew something was off.
00:53:12Yeah.
00:53:14Oops.
00:53:16I had no idea you were so talented.
00:53:18And here I thought you were struggling with tuition.
00:53:24All right.
00:53:27Let's start.
00:53:31So I had a chance to look through all your papers.
00:53:34There was one that stood out.
00:53:36Great structure.
00:53:37Perfect example of what I'm looking for.
00:53:45Well done, Collins.
00:53:47That's hers?
00:53:48No way.
00:53:50Um, professor?
00:53:51Mm-hmm?
00:53:52This entire essay has already been uploaded to Google Scholar.
00:53:59Yeah.
00:54:00Word for word.
00:54:04She stole it.
00:54:07That's not true.
00:54:10Thank you, Damien.
00:54:11I'll look into it.
00:54:12Is it true?
00:54:13I said I'll look into it.
00:54:14Nick, you don't believe me?
00:54:15First an escort, now a cheater.
00:54:27What's next?
00:54:28What's next?
00:54:33Leave it open.
00:54:37Nick, none of this is true.
00:54:39Which one?
00:54:42Photos?
00:54:43Plagiarism?
00:54:44Did your parents really pass away?
00:54:52They're in Minneapolis.
00:54:53Why'd you lie?
00:55:01Because I was ashamed.
00:55:03Was anything you said real?
00:55:04You actually believe that those are real?
00:55:08No, what am I supposed to believe?
00:55:10You're supposed to trust me like I trusted you.
00:55:18You know what's funny?
00:55:19I actually thought you were different.
00:55:23I actually thought you were different.
00:55:49You're not.
00:55:54I happened to mind.
00:55:55I'm just saying that I'm not real.
00:55:56I mean, I don't think I do.
00:55:57I'm just saying that I'm not a model.
00:55:58I don't understand the best at all.
00:56:01But you're not human.
00:56:02I don't know that.
00:56:02I don't hear a thing yet.
00:56:03I don't think it's true.
00:56:03You're not that good.
00:56:06You're not that bad.
00:56:11But you're not a dream.
00:56:12I never want to be a dream.
00:56:13I always know the best at all.
00:56:14I'm not a dream.
00:56:15I never want to come to the best at all.

00:57:32I don't know.
00:58:02I fell into a ditch when I was 10.
00:58:11It's fake.
00:58:20Annie, I'm outside your apartment.
00:58:23I heard about Damien and your essay.
00:58:25I'm just here to help.
00:58:33I'm sure it was so disappointing when Nick abandoned you.
00:58:38Sure.
00:58:40I don't know how Damien figured it out.
00:58:43No one wrote about my topic.
00:58:45It's like someone told him.
00:58:47Or it was just bad luck.
00:58:50No, Damien just knew.
00:58:54Well, maybe someone tipped him off.
00:58:57Yeah.
00:58:59The question is who?
00:59:01Well, I don't know how to do it, but I don't know how to do it, but you're a little late, I'm afraid.
00:59:29I don't know how to do it.
00:59:34Hey.
00:59:39Annie?
00:59:42You should have been more careful.
00:59:48Don't you know I'm not a quitter?
00:59:50Hello?
00:59:57Hello?
01:00:27This feels wrong.
01:00:33Why?
01:00:33Because everything you do for Victoria is legal?
01:00:37Quit the commentary and do what I say.
01:00:41Okay?
01:00:44Nick's not right for you.
01:00:46I am.
01:00:48Let me go!
01:00:51Come on!
01:00:52I'm just trying to make you see.
01:00:54Are you okay?
01:01:08Don't worry.
01:01:10You try your moves on the fellas in the slammer.
01:01:13Yeah, they're gonna love you, pretty boy.
01:01:15I should have been there.
01:01:21You were telling me the truth this whole time and I didn't believe you.
01:01:26It's too late, Nick.
01:01:32It's too late, Nick.
01:01:35Eddie, I want to start over, okay?
01:01:39You can't.
01:01:43Look, I'm not saying this to hurt you, but I mean, I know why you did what you did.
01:01:50Then why can't we start over?
01:01:55Over the summer, I didn't know who you were.
01:02:00And you didn't know who I was when we were lying.
01:02:06We worked.
01:02:09But not now.
01:02:11Isn't that telling?
01:02:14That we don't work when we know each other.
01:02:17Annie, that's not true.
01:02:18You know that.
01:02:19Isn't it?
01:02:21You said it yourself.
01:02:22Some things pull us together.
01:02:26Others tear us apart.
01:02:30This was always meant to fall apart.
01:02:43You know, for what it's worth,
01:02:45the summer we had together
01:02:49in this
01:02:51shitstorm of a semester
01:02:54was the best time of my life.
01:02:57It's the best time of my life.
01:03:15Not now.
01:03:17I thought you'd say that,
01:03:18but you might want to hear this.
01:03:21What do you want, Ella?
01:03:23I didn't know how to tell you,
01:03:25but congratulations.
01:03:28You're going to be a dad.
01:03:29I'm pregnant.
01:03:31Excuse me.
01:03:32A couple months ago,
01:03:33I had our embryo implanted,
01:03:35and I didn't say anything
01:03:37because I wasn't sure if it was going to take,
01:03:39but it did, Nick.
01:03:41You did that without telling me?
01:03:43I wanted it to be a surprise.
01:03:45I know it's a lot to process,
01:03:47but just...
01:03:48just think about it.
01:03:50I know you wouldn't want your child
01:03:52growing up without a father.
01:03:55This doesn't change anything.
01:03:57No.
01:03:58This changes everything.
01:04:15You look like hell.
01:04:32Why are you even here?
01:04:35Okay, I'll make this click, I guess.
01:04:37What if we just started over?
01:04:44Like you said,
01:04:46no lies, no games, just...
01:04:49Jesus fucking Christ, Annie.
01:04:52Now?
01:04:53You're asking me that now?
01:04:55We can't.
01:04:58But it was just the other day when you said...
01:05:00I mean, you think this goes back
01:05:01to a summer fling on the beach?
01:05:02I mean, find someone your own age.
01:05:05Why'd you even say yes to me?
01:05:06Because I care about you, and...
01:05:09Since when have you cared about how old you are?
01:05:12If we try, you'll be tied to Ellie, too.
01:05:17You should go.
01:05:19I'm letting you go.
01:05:20Who's this?
01:05:49Hi, this is Solange from Westbridge Fertility Center.
01:05:54We're calling about an outstanding balance
01:05:55from the recent embryo transfer?
01:05:59The transfer?
01:06:01Yes, the procedure was last month.
01:06:03We haven't received a final payment.
01:06:05In the, uh...
01:06:07The pregnancy?
01:06:08Oh, I'm sorry, sir.
01:06:11The transfer was unsuccessful.
01:06:14You're sure?
01:06:16Yes.
01:06:17We sent the results weeks ago.
01:06:19Good.
01:06:23Miserable, desperate liar.
01:06:25Hello?
01:06:26Hello?
01:06:27I'm Collin's.
01:06:30Yes, that's me.
01:07:00We had someone cancel last minute. Can you work tonight? 500 for the event.
01:07:04Yeah, yes. Yes, I'll take it.
01:07:06Great. I'll text you the details.
01:07:08Wait. What do I need to wear?
01:07:12We provide the uniform. Just show up on time.
01:07:26Stony?
01:07:26Uh, this does not seem like your usual waitstaff attire.
01:07:35Uh, it's a special event. You go and have fun, and you're making atmosphere.
01:07:41I thought I was serving drinks. If you're feeling uncomfortable, you can always pass.
01:07:46No, no, I'll do it.
01:07:49Big night, my man. You look great.
01:07:50What the hell is going on?
01:08:01You're proud of yourself. You've heard this.
01:08:04Go ahead.
01:08:04And now, the award for Outstanding Researcher of the Year, the recipient is Professor Nicholas Tucker.
01:08:14You probably think I'm standing here because I'm a great academic.
01:08:33But in academia, you can't just be a great scholar.
01:08:37You have to be a great educator.
01:08:39And I failed at that.
01:08:45And I failed at that.
01:08:48I watched as one of my students' lives got torn apart by lies.
01:08:53Saw her get bullied.
01:08:55Humiliated.
01:08:56And robbed of her scholarship.
01:08:58I let her take the fall for a scandal that wasn't even real.
01:09:00I let the world believe the worst of her, because that was easier than admitting the truth that I had failed.
01:09:08I was too much of a coward to stand up for her when it mattered the most.
01:09:13But I won't make that mistake again.
01:09:20What the fuck was that?
01:09:22Do you realize how much you just humiliated yourself?
01:09:24Are you really pregnant?
01:09:26Of course I am.
01:09:27That's interesting, because the clinic called me earlier.
01:09:32Transfer failed.
01:09:34There is no pregnancy, Ellie.
01:09:35Give it up.
01:09:40Jesus, Nick.
01:09:42You're so fucking gullible.
01:09:45I mean, why are you doing this?
01:09:47Because she was taking what's mine, and I don't like to share.
01:09:51So you bribed the scholarship board?
01:09:54Got Victoria, Paige, and Troy to ruin Annie's life?
01:09:56That girl needed to be put in place.
01:09:58She was crossing the line.
01:10:01Let's be honest, Nicholas.
01:10:02She never needed to be here in the first place.
01:10:05And those scholarships, they're just a tax write-off, a pure stunt.
01:10:12I mean, look, those kids, maybe they'll make some more money than their parents, but...
01:10:18They'll never be in the same circle as us.
01:10:21And neither will your girl, Annie.
01:10:28You're right.
01:10:30I know.
01:10:34Let's go back in.
01:10:36I don't apologize.
01:10:36I apologize.
01:10:38Good.
01:10:38Should be more careful next time.
01:11:01Should be more careful next time.
01:11:03Should be more careful next time.
01:11:25Okay.
01:11:26Oh, shit.
01:11:27Oh, shit.
01:11:29Look, I couldn't reach you, and I knew you were going to come here on your own, so I did have the manager hire you.
01:11:42I'm sorry.
01:11:43What do you want, Nick?
01:11:46I love you.
01:11:48Can we start over?
01:11:49Yeah.
01:11:51You love me when it's easy.
01:11:59When it's fun, but when it got hard, you ran.
01:12:04I fucked up.
01:12:05Yeah, you did.
01:12:06And you weren't just a fling to me.
01:12:08Then why did you treat me like one?
01:12:10Because I was afraid.
01:12:13Kate Belly told me she was pregnant, and I thought letting you go was the best thing I could do for you.
01:12:20Nick, you don't get to decide that for me.
01:12:25I also didn't trust myself enough to fight for you.
01:12:28And now?
01:12:30Now I lose everything just to have you.
01:12:34I mean, you did just nuke your entire career for me.
01:12:41Seem fair.
01:12:43I mean, you almost lost everything for me.
01:12:45Can you forgive me?
01:12:48When you're back, then we'll talk.
01:13:01You know, I hate waking up alone.
01:13:16I mean, you never really gave me an answer.
01:13:29Are you starting over?
01:13:30I'm literally at your house right now.
01:13:33We had sex two hours ago.
01:13:36Do you need to ask?
01:13:37I still want to hear it.
01:13:40No.
01:13:43But we can keep going.
