The Billionaire's Baby
Transcript
00:00When a mysterious billionaire asks you to marry him for a year and give him an heir,
00:06what do you say? He offered me ten million dollars. I needed the money to pay for my
00:12little brother's heart surgery. I couldn't say no. So I moved into his mansion and slowly I got
00:20to know him. His likes, his dislikes, his smile, those lips. The man behind the six-foot-five
00:27perfect body. The heart he liked to pretend he didn't have. And eventually, I started to realize
00:34I wanted this baby and the strange little family we'd become. I wanted him. But my
00:42year with Gideon Maslow was coming to an end. Was it possible he felt the same way?
00:57Why won't you tell me who that woman is?
01:22Because I don't want to talk about other women.
01:29What does that mean?
01:34It means I only want to think about you. My little dog.
01:45So you're interested in becoming a surrogate?
01:52Well, I can't think of anything more fulfilling than bringing new life into this world.
02:07That's beautiful, sweetheart. Did you bring everything I asked for?
02:22Oh, yes. Medical records, blood work, it's all there.
02:26Everything seems to be in order. You're young, you're healthy. I can already think of several
02:34clients who would love you.
02:35Oh, that's great. It's a huge relief, honestly.
02:38Oh, but, honey, wait. Your medical records are missing the details of your previous birth.
02:43Previous birth?
02:45To be a surrogate, you need to have given birth before. It was in the literature we sent over.
02:51No, please.
02:52Perhaps you can consider egg donation.
02:54That doesn't pay enough.
02:55Oh, sweetheart, egg donation is still a beautiful way to help bring new life into the world.
03:00Let me get you a pamphlet.
03:02I'll give you a pamphlet.
03:03If the sun refused to shine, baby, would I still be your lover? Would you want me there if the door...
03:30Hey, cutie.
03:40Hey.
03:41Oh, no, don't get up.
03:43It's fine.
03:44How are you feeling?
03:46Well, I can't live like this much longer.
03:48Come on, don't say that.
03:50I'm supposed to start college in three months, and instead I'm here, rotting, on a couch.
03:56We just have to take things easy until we...
03:58I know, I know.
04:03By the way, um, have you heard of someone named Gideon Maslow?
04:09Yeah, of course. He's the CEO of Maslow Enterprises.
04:13He's a billionaire. Why?
04:16Just saw the name somewhere.
04:19Who is this?
04:24Hi, uh, this is Alice Gardner. The Parkside Surrogacy Agency referred me.
04:29Okay.
04:30I'm here to help you have a baby.
04:32They were supposed to send me a selection of women to choose from.
04:36Well, the agency is confident that I'm the best choice.
04:39Well, I can't speak about this now. My house tomorrow. I'll send a car.
04:45Sure, I'll text you my...
04:47I'll text you my...
04:48I'll text you my...
04:49Can I help you?
04:51Can I help you?
05:18Hi, yes, I'm here to see Mr. Maslow.
05:20I have an appointment.
05:21Oh, you must be Ms. Gardner.
05:23Sorry, I thought you were selling something.
05:26What would I be selling?
05:28I wasn't sure.
05:30Ill-fitting jackets.
05:36Alice, I see you met my house manager, Helga.
05:41Follow me.
05:46What is it?
05:59It's a non-disclosure agreement.
06:02Guys usually offer to buy me a drink first.
06:05Anything that I say in this meeting will not be repeated or else I will unleash a legal firestorm
06:14on your ass, the likes of which you couldn't even imagine.
06:18Your lawyers are going to need lawyers and their lawyers are going to need lawyers.
06:22Okay.
06:23Geez, I get it.
06:25Could have just asked me to pinky promise.
06:29I take those very seriously.
06:31All right.
06:32Let's get down to business.
06:35I need a surrogate of sorts.
06:39My proposition is a bit unconventional.
06:44I need to hire someone to marry me and give birth to my heir.
06:52I'm sorry, what?
06:55Oh, you're one of those billionaires, freaky psychopath.
07:01Well, the marriage would be a temporary situation after the birth of my son.
07:05Your son?
07:06Or whatever.
07:07After the birth of my heir.
07:10We'll divorce, he'll retain visitation rights, but the marriage has to appear real for at least
07:16one year.
07:17Why?
07:18If I want my heir to eventually take over the company, he has to maintain my family's
07:23pristine reputation.
07:24You see, the community would never accept a bastard.
07:29I don't get it.
07:30You have money and a nice face and a great body and you are tall.
07:35Like, how tall are you?
07:38Why can't you just find a real wife?
07:40I don't get out much.
07:43I enjoy the solitude.
07:45And enjoy paying people to have sex with you?
07:47Who said anything about sex?
07:49I know how husbands and wives make babies.
07:52No, we would take the medical approach.
07:54This s***.
07:55Ten?
07:57Ten mil- million dollars?
07:59Ten million dollars.
08:01Okay.
08:03Okay, I'll do it.
08:04Well, you can take your time and think.
08:06No, it's alright.
08:08Where do I sign?
08:09No, slow down, Alice.
08:10I still have to think about it.
08:12You're the first woman that I interviewed for the position.
08:15Well, look no further.
08:16You've found me, Mrs. Gideon Maslow.
08:21You really like the sound of all that money, don't you?
08:23No, I don't like it.
08:26I need it.
08:30My brother has a hole in his heart.
08:32He needs surgery and the longer we wait, the less chance he has at making a full recovery.
08:37So why don't you ask your parents for the money?
08:41It's not an option.
08:44Look, I'll be the best fake wife you've ever had, okay?
08:48Please?
08:52Please?
08:56Alright.
08:57We'll call it highly motivated.
08:59I like that in a business partner.
09:02You're hired.
09:07I promise you, it's all quite standard.
09:10Hmm, yes, quite.
09:12It says here that I don't get the money until the baby is born.
09:15Yes, but I will front the cost of Nico's surgery.
09:19And all your day-to-day expenses will be taken care of.
09:23I have to live with you?
09:24I told you, the relationship has to appear real.
09:29Well, then Nico needs to live here, too.
09:32My brother can't be alone.
09:36Alright.
09:42Now what?
09:43Why aren't you signing?
09:44So, you two have been dating how long?
09:48I don't think it's been so long.
09:52I'm pretty sure I mentioned Alice to you.
09:56Pretty sure you didn't.
09:57No, I'm pretty sure I have.
09:59Um, hey, how about we take a walk outside, take a walk around the grounds?
10:04It's a beautiful day today.
10:09But you'd think that, like, maybe there would be enough more.
10:13I think everyone buys it.
10:16Do Karen and Jenny have kids?
10:18They've been trying for some years, but, I mean, it's a sensitive topic.
10:22It's hard to hear that.
10:23Somebody's got to carry on the Maslow name.
10:27I'll give him my best shot.
10:32Alice?
10:32No, I'm good.
10:33Nico?
10:34Uh, your brother!
10:37Nico, no!
10:38So you're interested in becoming a surrogate.
10:48Well, I can't think of anything more fulfilling than bringing new life into this world.
10:53That's beautiful, sweetheart.
10:56Did you bring everything I asked for?
10:57Oh, yes.
10:59Medical records, blood work, it's all there.
11:03Everything seems to be in order.
11:06You're young, you're healthy.
11:08I can already think of several clients who would love you.
11:10Oh, that's great.
11:11It's a huge relief, honestly.
11:14Oh, but, honey, wait.
11:15Your medical records are missing the details of your previous birth.
11:18Previous birth?
11:21To be a surrogate, you need to have given birth before.
11:24It was in the literature we sent over.
11:26No, please.
11:27Perhaps you can consider egg donation.
11:29That doesn't pay enough.
11:31Oh, sweetheart, egg donation is still a beautiful way to help bring new life into the world.
11:36Let me get you a pamphlet.
