00:10Welcome home.
00:15Starting tonight, this is your home.
00:17But the Carltau family has Carlton rules.
00:21I won't cause trouble.
00:30Know it. Come meet your new family.
00:35Hi.
00:37Hi.
00:38You're going out again?
00:40Work.
01:02Sorry. Wrong room.
01:10Do you always walk into other people's rooms like this?
01:21The Carlisle family values boundaries above all.
01:25Everyone will watch how you behave.
01:27I understand.
01:28Good.
01:29Good. This is not where you used to live.
01:34Morning, darling.
01:37You must be Aiden.
01:39Welcome to the family.
01:55What?
01:56What happened last night doesn't happen again.
02:00I said it was a mistake.
02:02Then learn the house.
02:05And learn that not every door here is meant to be opened.
02:08Relax.
02:09I'm not interested in your secrets.
02:12I'm not interested in your secrets.
02:13Don't be so sure.
02:14And you?
02:16What exactly are you afraid of?
02:25I'm not interested in your secrets.
02:25Am I interrupting something?
02:29No.
02:34Your brother can be hard to deal with sometimes.
02:36Don't take it personally.
02:38I won.
02:46Just get through today.
02:50Stand up straight.
02:51Don't look so awkward.
02:53Voters don't like seeing anything unplushed.
02:55Places, please, everyone.
02:57Places.
02:59Okay, Aiden, can you come in just a little bit closer, please?
03:02Yeah, right there.
03:02Perfect.
03:03Great.
03:03Everyone look here like a real family.
03:07Everyone will watch how you behave.
03:09Do you always walk into other people's rooms like this?
03:11Like a real family.
03:16Stop looking like that.
03:18You're not here to ask for anything.
03:25Don't let him get to you.
03:28Is this how your family comforts people too?
03:30Like an order?
03:33Everyone here is playing a role.
03:35The more you care, the more you lose.
03:37What about you?
03:38Are you acting too?
03:40I always am.
03:42We announce the engagement next month.
03:45Along with the donation plan,
03:46family values will help with women voters.
03:53Welcome to the Carlisle family.
04:05This is not about feelings.
04:07It's strategy.
04:08Noah and Victoria's engagement must be locked in before the election.
04:12Is he cooperating?
04:14He will.
04:16He knows what family duty means.
04:25Who's there?
04:27It's me.
04:35Don't listen at doors.
04:37If it's about your wedding, should I congratulate you?
04:49To family.
04:51To family.
04:54To family.
05:03Aiden.
05:05You don't have to explain anything to me.
05:07You don't have to explain anything to me.
05:07Then why have you been avoiding me?
05:11Because the way you look at me doesn't feel like a brother.
05:29My wife's son from a previous marriage.
05:32My wife's son from a previous marriage.
05:51I've been looking for you for 20 minutes.
05:53I've been looking for you for 20 minutes.
05:53Why look for me?
05:54Your fiancee is downstairs.
05:58She's not.
05:59New York seems to think she is.
06:05I never got to choose.
06:07School, major, work, who I'm seen with.
06:10None of it was mine.
06:11I tried to be normal.
06:13I tried to love someone my father would approve of.
06:16The media would approve of.
06:17Someone safe.
06:18I couldn't.
06:19Then what kind of person could you love?
06:25I don't know.
06:25I only know that when I look at you.
06:28Everything gets dangerous.
06:37If I wanted to kiss you would you run?
06:56Noah, you can still tell me to stop.
07:19What happened tonight changes nothing.
07:22Then what am I?
07:25You shouldn't be dragged into this.
07:27But you already did.
07:42Why is your face so flushed?
07:44I had a little too much to drink.
07:52You seem to be in a very good mood tonight.
08:00I hope you enjoyed the party too.
08:07Family is the cornerstone of our society.
08:10And so what doesn't it give in half at money?
08:16Probably a little Niohini stay in our Sataymor.
08:35Are you insane?
08:36Someone could walk in any second.
08:40You've been avoiding me?
08:41You said it yourself.
08:43That night changed nothing.
08:47I didn't say that because I regret it.
08:50Then why?
08:51Because I'm not respectable enough?
08:53Because I know exactly how this family would destroy you.
08:56I can survive whatever they do to me.
08:58I can't survive watching them do it to you.
09:02I can't survive watching them do it to you.
09:03I can't survive anymore.
09:09I'm sorry.
09:14Don't push me away again.
09:24Sorry sir.
09:25We're here for the champagne.
09:26Take it and leave.
09:27Yes sir.
09:36It's okay now.
09:40What if it hadn't been the staff?
09:45Is this what you want?
09:47Every time we get close it feels like we're about to be executed.
09:52I'll find a way.
10:00Are you okay?
10:02Just feeling a bit stuffy.
10:10Darling.
10:11Where did you go?
10:12I've been looking for you.
10:14Took a call.
10:16You haven't been yourself all night.
10:19I'm just tired.
10:23Aiden.
10:25Have you fallen for someone in this house you never should have?
10:30I don't know.
10:41Aiden, talk to me.
10:43Not now, Mom.
10:44Please.
11:05We have a lot to be thankful for this year.
11:11Let's be grateful for everything we have.
11:14And for family members who understand duty and sacrifice.
11:35Are you okay?
11:37I'm fine.
11:56You seem nervous tonight.
11:58It's just a holiday dinner.
12:01Really?
12:03I thought maybe there was a secret hiding under the table.
12:20This is your place?
12:22I stay here when work runs late.
12:24No house.
12:25There's cameras.
12:26No my father's people.
12:29Are you here alone a lot?
12:32Most of the time.
12:40You don't look happy.
12:42Back then I kept telling myself I'd leave someday.
12:47Then why didn't you?
12:51Because I thought I wanted nothing.
12:55Until you.
13:13Noah, I know you're in there.
13:15Open the door.
13:16Go to the bedroom.
13:17Stay quiet.
13:19So I still have to hide, right?
13:36Up this late?
13:38What are you doing here?
13:41I just wanted to see what's been keeping you so busy lately.
13:44You've seen enough.
13:45You can leave now.
13:48You're in a terrible mood tonight.
13:52Is it because someone else is here?
13:56You're crossing a line.
13:57Really?
13:59Because lately you look like a man hiding something precious.
14:02Don't be late for the media shoot next week.
14:04We need to look more convincing as a couple.
14:07Good night, Noah.
14:12What was I just now?
14:15Aiden, like a lover?
14:16No.
14:17Like a boyfriend?
14:19Even less.
14:20I looked like a secret shoved behind a door.
14:23I was protecting you.
14:25That's what you always say.
14:27Then why does the person being protected feel nothing but shame?
14:32Give me some time.
14:34I don't want to be your secret forever.
14:35I don't want to be your secret forever.
14:41Closer.
14:42More natural.
14:45Smile more naturally.
14:46The public loves stability.
14:53Aiden, what do you think of this tie?
14:55It looks good.
14:58Noah likes it too.
15:03We're adding an embrace shot.
15:05We need people to believe it's real.
15:07Noah, tilt your head lower.
15:08Victoria, move closer to him.
15:13This shot is definitely making headlines.
15:16Excellent.
15:16That's exactly the effect we needed.
15:21Looks like today went wonderfully.
15:25Aiden!
15:27That's in the mail.
15:28Let me explain.
15:29Explain what?
15:31Why you didn't pull away?
15:32Or why you looked so much like you belonged to her?
15:36It was all for them.
15:38But what I saw felt real enough.
15:57You can't just disappear like this.
16:00Aren't you the one who's best at making me disappear?
16:05I didn't have a choice in that shoot.
16:12Aiden, look at me.
16:17You never have a choice.
16:19No choice about the engagement.
16:21No choice about holding her, kissing her, and admitting me.
16:26Am I not yet?
16:28Is there?
16:31Then when are you ever going to see me a second?
16:46Thank you for meeting me.
16:49What do you want to say?
16:50Don't be so tense.
16:52I'm just curious why Noah has been paying so much attention to you lately.
16:57Maybe because we live in the same house.
16:59You know, Noah wasn't always like this.
17:01He used to smile.
17:02He used to trust people.
17:04Now there are very few people who can make him lose control.
17:08Maybe you know him better than I do.
17:11Really?
17:12Because I keep thinking the way he looks at you doesn't feel very fomential.
17:17You're overthinking it.
17:19And you?
17:21When you look at him, what does it look like to you?
17:24If you care that much, ask Noah directly.
17:26Oh, I will.
17:27But before that, I wanted to see how you lie.
17:30If you invited me here to humiliate me, congratulations.
17:34No, Aiden.
17:35I won't be the one humiliating you.
17:37It'll be the look on your face when you can't hide it anymore.
17:47It's me.
17:48Keep watching them.
17:50I want time, place, and proof strong enough to ruin them.
17:54Understood.
18:11You've barely eaten these past few days.
18:15But Aiden, you want some of your breakfast, one?
18:17I'm fine.
18:20When you lied as a child, you always looked down first.
18:30Mom, please don't ask.
18:32If someone has hurt you, I have a right to know.
18:37No one is hurting me.
18:39Then why do you look like you're falling apart?
18:50The engagement preparations cannot be delayed any longer.
18:53You've been unstable lately.
18:54You're not worried about me.
18:56You're worried about your campaign.
18:56I care that this family does not become a scandal, especially after you started behaving dangerously.
19:03What exactly are you saying?
19:05I'm reminding you not to bring certain unacceptable impulses into this house.
19:15Who is it?
19:18It's me.
19:21You shouldn't be here.
19:25I just needed to know you were okay.
19:34Whose door were you standing at last night?
19:38That's none of your business.
19:40Everything about you is my business.
19:42Especially before you drag this entire family into the mud.
19:45You control my work, my life, my marriage.
19:47Now you're policing how long I stand outside a door?
19:50I'm stopping you from making a mistake that would destroy you.
19:52You're not afraid for me.
19:53You're afraid for the image you built.
19:55Listen carefully.
19:57Before the election, I will allow no scandal.
20:00Especially not the kind that is abnormal, disgusting, and enough to turn every supporter against us.
20:06You make me sick.
20:08Then don't force me to be even clearer.
20:11So, let's go.
20:12Let's go.
20:40Aiden, it's me.
20:49Who sent this?
20:52I don't know.
20:54But they got us.
20:55Come with me.
20:57Where?
21:00Somewhere no one knows us.
21:09How much longer can we keep hiding?
21:12When I was younger, I thought if I obeyed enough, one day he'd finally be satisfied.
21:16Then I realized with a man like him, satisfaction is never the end.
21:20It's just another chain.
21:21Then without that house, without his name, who would you be?
21:24Maybe just an ordinary man who comes home from work, cooks terrible dinners,
21:27wastes whole weekends with the person he loves.
21:30That sounds better than the Carlisle mansion.
21:31I'm afraid I can't give you that life.
21:33Do you think I care about the mansion?
21:35I was never afraid of being poor.
21:38I'm afraid of the way you keep pushing me away.
21:39Noah, I love you.
21:42You love me?
21:44Yes.
21:45Even if it's a disaster, even if it's dangerous, I still love you.
21:53I love you too.
21:56I love you too.
21:57What about you?
21:57What is your plan for the mansion?
22:09I was scared otherwise, if I could succeed.
22:09We've got to your ummh...
22:28But pretending not to see it would only make things worse.
22:32Where did these come from?
22:34Does it matter?
22:35What matters is that they've turned the Carlisle family
22:38into a joke behind your back.
22:42I think you should have a talk with Noah
22:44before the media does.
22:49Send Noah to my study.
22:51Now.
23:01Explain.
23:05Do you understand what this would destroy if it got out?
23:07It was never going to destroy me.
23:10No.
23:11It destroys me.
23:12My campaign, my name, my family.
23:16So you finally said the truth.
23:17Listen, Noah.
23:18If you want to ruin yourself, fine.
23:21But I will not let anyone, especially that boy
23:23you've become obsessed with, drag me down with you.
23:26Don't you dare touch him.
23:28Oh, I dare.
23:29I can destroy him.
23:30Destroy his mother and leave them with nothing.
23:33You're insane! Insane!
23:34Then remember this.
23:36If you want to keep him safe, stay away from him.
23:42Don't be nervous.
23:43What do you want from me?
23:46Your mother loves the life she has now.
23:48A respectable marriage, a stable home, a second chance.
23:52If you don't want all of that to disappear overnight,
23:55stay away from my son.
23:56Otherwise, Helen leaves with nothing.
23:59And the two of you will go right back to where you belong.
24:03You're disgusting.
24:06Yet disgusting men are usually the ones who win.
24:21What happened?
24:36Why have you been avoiding me?
24:39Because I'm done playing.
24:41What do you mean?
24:43I mean, did you really think I'd throw away my life for a relationship that has to stay hidden?
24:48That's not who you are.
24:50How much do you actually know me?
24:53Maybe I got close to you because you're a Carlisle.
24:56You're lying.
24:57Am I?
24:59You can give me a mansion, money, status.
25:02But you can't even admit me in daylight.
25:05I'm done playing this little affair game with you.
25:09So everything you said was fake?
25:11Yes.
25:13Including when I said I loved you.
25:29Get out.
25:32Gladly.
25:36The Carlisle family is expected to announce a major engagement soon.
25:48If you're not feeling well, we can leave.
25:52I'm fine.
25:55Thank you all for being here tonight.
25:57To me, family has always been the greatest value.
26:00So tonight, I'm honored to share some wonderful news with all of you.
26:03My son Noah is going to be engaged to Victoria.
26:09Thank you, everyone.
26:11Noah and I are both very excited for the future.
26:18Aiden.
26:20You'll congratulate us, won't you?
26:24Of course.
26:24I wish, wish you a lifetime of happiness.
26:28How sweet of you.
26:49I wish, wish you a lifetime of happiness.
26:53How sweet of you.
27:08Noah.
27:09Stop.
27:15Pick up the phone.
27:17Please, pick up.
27:21What did you say to him?
27:23I said nothing.
27:25I said nothing.
27:25He would not just disappear for no reason!
27:27Don't make this public.
27:29Tomorrow the press will continue covering the engagement.
27:32My son is missing!
27:34Then find him.
27:36Quietly.
27:44Hello?
27:54Where is Aiden?
27:57Don't be so hostile.
27:59Sit.
28:00Let's talk.
28:00I'll ask again.
28:01Where is he?
28:03He's safe for now.
28:04You touched him!
28:06No.
28:07Your father drove him away.
28:09I just saw the board more clearly than you did.
28:13What do you want?
28:14Finally.
28:15The right question.
28:16I want the wedding to proceed as planned.
28:20You keep playing the perfect heir.
28:22And I become the future Miss Carlisle.
28:27You think I'd agree to that?
28:28If you don't, you know exactly what Richard will do.
28:31He'll destroy Aiden first, then Helen.
28:34And what I have will make sure they never get the chance to fight back.
28:38Don't look at me like that.
28:40At least I'm offering you a choice.
28:42Your father wouldn't.
28:45If I cooperate, Aiden stays safe.
28:49I'll do my best to keep Richard away from them.
28:55Is he safe right now?
29:05Were you trying to scare me to death?
29:09Yes.
29:10I fell in love with him.
29:16What did Richard say to you?
29:18He said if I didn't leave Noah, you'd leave with nothing.
29:24I couldn't gamble with your life.
29:26So I had to leave.
29:27You foolish boy!
29:29I can lose the house, the marriage, the status, but I cannot watch you bury your heart with it!
29:37Running is not the answer. If you still love him, then stop running.
29:46You win.
29:48Don't make it sound so ugly.
29:49We're simply getting what we need.
29:52And what exactly do you need?
29:53Position. Contracts.
29:56Half of the future power of the Carlisle family.
29:59Love was never on my list.
30:01There can be no mistakes tomorrow.
30:03This will be the most important day for the Carlisle family.
30:07Are you sure?
30:11If I don't go, I'll regret it for the rest of my life.
30:17Oh!
30:29This is...
30:30Get him out of here.
30:35Aiden...
30:36You'd better leave right now.
30:38Oh my god! It's the stepson!
30:40Keep shooting!
30:43How dramatic.
30:44I wasn't gonna come.
30:45I was gonna do what I always do.
30:47Step back, and then step back again.
30:48But then I realized I've spent my whole life giving things up.
30:51I gave way to poverty, to humiliation, to this family.
30:55I refuse to give up love too.
30:58Noah, do not say a word.
31:01Don't marry her!
31:03The person you love is me!
31:14Don't you dare take another step!
31:18You've controlled me long enough.
31:24The person I've loved all along is him.
31:28You've...
31:29You've lost your mind!
31:30No.
31:32I'm finally refusing to live for you anymore.
31:36Beautiful speech.
31:37But if you hadn't seduced him, would he be here now?
31:39You wanna put all of this on me?
31:41Then what about the photos, the surveillance, and the deal you offered Noah?
31:45What deal?
31:46You're not the victim.
31:47You knew about Noah and me long before this.
31:49You used those photos as leverage to force him into this wedding.
31:52You never wanted love.
31:53You wanted your place in the Carlisle family!
31:54She has photos?!
31:55This is bigger than a wedding store!
31:57Fine.
31:57If we're tearing this open, let's tear it all the way open.
32:01You think I'm the dirtiest person here?
32:03Then let's show the contracts to the press.
32:08Here are the private agreements signed by Richard and my father.
32:11If Noah and I go through with the marriage,
32:14future Carlisle Foundation projects will be funneled to my family's business.
32:18Give me that!
32:23Richard, we need to leave immediately. The media is already going live with this.
32:31I've had enough.
32:34I thought I married a man who could give my son and me a new life.
32:38But now I see I didn't marry into a family.
32:40I married into a performance!
32:43I want a divorce.
32:45I'm not coming back.
32:48Do you have any idea what you're giving up?
32:51I do.
32:53I'm giving up the life you chose for me.
33:06What now?
33:08I don't know.
33:09But for the first time, that's okay.
33:17Okay.
33:26Don't laugh.
33:28I haven't said anything yet.
33:31I'm just trying to prove I can actually make dinner.
33:35So far, the evidence is weak.
33:47I knew the two of you wouldn't survive your first week on your own.
33:51Hey!
33:52You came at exactly the right time.
33:56Take care of him.
33:59I will.
34:03Do you ever regret it?
34:07Leaving that house, that name, everything that was supposed to be yours?
34:11No.
34:13For the first time in my life, I'm not living as the person someone else wanted me to be.
34:18I'm living as myself.
34:25This feels strange.
34:28Strange good or strange bad?
34:31Strange good.
34:35Like I'm waiting for someone to tell me it's not real.
34:38No.
34:40It's real.
34:45Not bad.
34:46For a first try.
34:49Just not bad?
34:50Okay, it's terrible.
34:51But I don't care.
34:54What are we going to do now?
34:55Like, for real?
34:56Find jobs.
34:57Pay rent.
34:58Make dinner.
35:00Mess up.
35:01Try again.
35:02That sounds terrifying.
35:04Yeah.
35:06But for the first time, I'm not scared of my own life.
35:13I used to lie awake in the mansion, thinking I didn't belong there.
35:17And now?
35:20Now I know I belong here.
35:22With you.
35:26Goodnight, Ada.
35:31Goodnight.
35:38The bread is burning.
35:39Let it burn.
35:42You're ridiculous.
35:45We'll get better at this.
35:47At what?
35:47Cooking?
35:48Or being together?
35:50Both.
35:56I never thought I'd be happy being ordinary.
35:59Me neither.
36:00But ordinary feels pretty good.
36:05I got an interview.
36:06See?
36:07We're figuring it out.
36:08Do you miss it?
36:10The money.
36:11The power.
36:12I miss none of it.
36:14I miss having a father who actually loved me.
36:17But I never had that.
36:19You have me.
36:22That's more than enough.
36:26You two look good.
36:30Mom.
36:32Thank you, Helen.
36:34For everything.
36:35Take care of each other.
36:37You two.
36:38We'll be okay.
36:45What are you thinking?
36:47That maybe real is better than perfect.
36:57What's good to do?
36:58Absolutely.
36:58How old is yes?
37:05What else?
