Short filmTranscript
00:01My name is Ella.
00:03My best friend Leah and I married the Harper brothers on the same day.
00:09I married Charles, the fire captor.
00:13And she married Noah, the brilliant surgeon.
00:23The ceremony was beautiful, even Megan.
00:28The ex they had both once loved came to wish us well.
00:33Back then, we thought it was the beginning of a perfect life.
00:37I had no idea I was stepping into a nightmare it never waked from.
00:47Let's secretly record daddy's face when he sees the anniversary surprise.
00:52When you're out here with us baby, we'll watch it together someday.
00:57Oh right, I still need the flowers from the balcony.
01:24No! No, no, no!
01:34Megan? Megan, what are you doing? Open the door!
01:37Open the door!
01:39Go to hell, bitch.
01:56Pick up! Pick up Charles! Please!
01:58On duty. Can't talk. Text me.
02:00Charles, the house is on fire. Megan locked me in the living room. Saved me and the baby!
02:04My stomach hurts!
02:05Not funny, Ella. It's not April Fools.
02:08Megan's cat is stuck on the roof. I'm working.
02:11I'm not joking. Please, for the sake of the baby.
02:14I'm on fire, Captain. Not in the bus.
02:17Be more like Megan. Don't bother me at work.
02:23Three years today. My baby and I are dying in here while he's out saving his first lover's hat.
02:31Ella!
02:32No.
02:33Ella, are you-
02:36Ella, are you in there?!
02:54Save. Save the baby. We have them. Please. We have them.
03:00Hold on, Ella. No need to be afraid. I'm getting you out of here.
03:07Charles! Your house is on fire. It's locked inside. Get back here!
03:12Seriously? Did Ella put you up to this?
03:15I'm not fucking joking. You're losing the baby. If you're any kind of man, get here now!
03:21Lying about fire is a crime. Megan's cat could die. That's a life, too. I'll deal with Ella once I'm
03:26done.
03:30Mother and baby are both critical. We need to operate now. Only Dr. Harper can do this surgery, but he
03:36called in sick.
03:39I'll handle it. I'm his wife. I can get him here. Please, get everything ready for the operation.
03:45Noah! Where are you?! Ellis is hemorrhaging! I need you back here now!
03:51Don't fall for it. They're jealous. We're helping Megan. Three years of this. See? She's been blowing up my phone.
03:57They're just fusing the fire to drag us back home.
04:00I'm a surgeon, Leah. Not your handyman.
04:03Noah, she has a lot of internal bleeding. Please, we need you here now!
04:07Save your jealousy. Megan's cat has an actual injury, unlike your imaginary emergency.
04:14Is something wrong, Noah?
04:17It's nothing. Shall we go take a look at your cat's wounds?
04:23Fuck! Those Harper brothers are complete idiots!
04:28The fetus heart has stopped. The mother is losing too much blood. We need to get her in the operating
04:32room now!
04:35Ella, everything will be okay. You have me. I'll be right by your side. Just hang on!
04:41I'll be right by your side!
04:49Push, push!

19:24this isn't your fault charles who could have expected that ella would hurt the baby just to take revenge on
19:30you
19:32what did you just say
19:36what did i say something wrong
19:38i can't figure out how a woman with healthy checkups every time suddenly has a miscarriage
19:45noah you're a doctor
19:47what do you think
19:50exactly seven months that's a stable pregnancy without external factors or human interventions it would be impossible to have a
19:57miscarriage
19:57ella was safe at home what external force could there have been
20:01it's pretty obvious to me he was fully grown and you killed him out of spite you're heartless
20:10and you leah as her best friend instead of talking some sense into her you helped her do it
20:14you're both vicious
20:17my pain means nothing to you she makes something up and it's the truth i've met street dogs smarter than
20:23you
20:25ella it's fine to hate me but don't take it out on an innocent baby no matter how many times

27:43and don't you dare bring that bitch she will not disturb his peace otherwise you'll pay
27:50leah let's go
28:12I hope you pieces of shit rot in hell soon.
28:42She knows how much I wanted to raise him to be firefighter.
28:47Why would she destroy my dream?
28:50She's ruthless!
28:54What's even more ridiculous is that they fooled us for three years.
28:57We finally see them for what they are.
29:08What is this?
29:16This is the baby's birth certificate?
29:19Does this mean...
29:23He's alive!
29:26And it was born at our hospital.
29:27I'll call them right away.
29:34Is this Dr. Chan?
29:36I'm Noah Harper.
29:38I would like to know a pregnant woman named Ella Foster came by the hospital three days ago.
29:43Um, yes she did.
29:45Did she give birth to the baby?
29:48She gave birth to a baby boy, but...
29:54The hospital said Ella had a baby boy!
30:00I knew they were lying.
30:04That big a fire?
30:05And she was still able to give birth?
30:08So infuriating.
30:10Did you hear that Megan?
30:12My son's alive!
30:14Thank goodness he's still alive!
30:18That's wonderful news, Charles.
30:20I'm so happy for you.
30:22Those two horrible women lied to us about the baby's funeral.
30:25They just wanted to make us feel guilty and anxious.
30:29Wait, Charles.
30:31If you guys just head over like this, doesn't that mean you're giving in to them?
30:35Are you planning to make up with them?
30:37Make up with them in their dreams.
30:41They are who they are.
30:42The baby is the baby.
30:42We're just there for the baby.
30:44As for whether we make up with them,
30:45if they feel ashamed and repent of their mistakes,
30:48maybe we could give them a chance to make amends.
30:50That's enough.
30:51Let's call someone to repair the car.
30:52And then come with me to get my hair done.
30:54I've got to make a good first impression on my son.
30:55Then I'll get a change of clothes as well before meeting my nephew.
31:00Ella, even if that bastard child of yours happens to survive,
31:03don't expect to make up with Charles.
31:06Charles and Noah's future belongs to me.
31:08No one can take them away from me.
31:19It's time, Ella.
31:21We have to say goodbye to him now.
31:23In a bit, people from the hospital and fire station will also be here to send him off.
31:27Then we'll take him to the memorial park together.
31:30There are lots of children there, so he won't be lonely anymore.
31:34No, don't, don't!
31:38I haven't even gotten to look at him enough yet.
31:42How can it be time to say goodbye?
31:46Will the baby like this one?
31:49Good baby.
31:51Can you understand everything mommy am saying?
31:54Grow up fast, okay?
31:57Mommy can't wait to see you.
32:02The baby's heartbeat is very strong.
32:04I can tell it's a very healthy baby.
32:26Would it be better for me not to go in?
32:29Didn't Ella warn you not to bring me?
32:31Is her word the Bible? Why should I listen to her?
32:33I haven't even confronted her about lying to me about our child's death yet.
32:37What right does she have to tell me what to do?
32:39I'm bringing you today to see the child.
32:43Exactly.
32:44They're already in the wrong for hiding the child in the first place.
32:47If they continue causing any trouble for you, then we'll just take the child and have you adopt him.
32:51They can forget about ever seeing him again.
32:53Sounds good. Hearing you say that puts me at ease.
33:18Are you still not done with your pranks?
33:21Who allowed you to decorate the chapel like this?
33:26I haven't even asked you yet, Charles Harper.
33:29Didn't I warn you not to bring her here?
33:31Are you unable to understand human language?
33:34I order you to leave.
33:37Now! Get Megan Vance the hell away from my son's funeral!
33:44I asked her to come.
33:46If you've got a problem with it, take it out on me. Not Megan.
33:49Are you really trying to provoke the baby in me right now?
33:53Are you trying to make sure the baby never rests in peace?
33:55Cut it out. We've seen right through your little scam a long time ago.
34:02The baby was clearly born this entire time, safely.
34:06But you lied to us that the baby died.
34:09Just to make us feel guilty and regretful, didn't you?
34:12It's too bad we already know the truth.
34:15You pathological liars, when will you give up your pranks?
34:19You even faked an entire funeral to mess with our heads.
34:23Wow. Taking it this far?
34:26Aren't you afraid God will punish the baby for this?
34:29Fuck! I'm so stupid to even let you come here!
34:33Take that bitch with you and get the fuck out!
34:35Don't disturb the child's peace!
34:37After everything that's happened, do you really think I'll still believe your nonsense?
34:40Just act like I'm begging you, okay?
34:41Stop being so stubborn. No matter what, the child is innocent.
34:43You really want him to grow up in a home of father's love?
34:45Just hand him over.
34:46How is it so hard to understand?
34:48Because of your negligence and Megan's scheme, he's lost the chance to ever grow up!
34:51He's left me forever!
34:53Charles, Noah, it seems to me like no matter what you say,
34:55Ella and Leah aren't gonna let you see the child.
34:57A newborn can't survive without someone taking care of it,
34:59so he's probably in the chapel somewhere.
35:00How about we go find him ourselves?
35:05Megan's right. The baby's definitely inside.
35:09Since they insist on being stubborn, we'll search ourselves!
35:12Don't you dare!
35:14No, you have no right to do this!
35:16Get the hell out!
35:30Charles, let's take a family picture with the baby.
35:37Baby, where are you?
35:39Cry for daddy so I can find you!
35:41Come on, baby!
35:45Hey, little guy, your uncle is here.
35:49What the hell?
35:50Who allowed you to put our gifts with these funeral offerings?
35:53That's a curse on the child!
35:57Noah and I bought these for the baby!
36:00I can't wait for you to be born.
36:03Godmother's gonna take you to win so many more stuffies, okay?
36:18Oh my god, Ella!
36:21Your hand!
36:24Hey, Charles!
36:26I found the baby!
36:31No!
36:35I found it, Charles.
36:38The baby should be in here.
36:42Don't touch him!
36:43Don't!
36:44That's enough, Ella.
36:46Save the crocodile tears.
36:48The game's over.
36:50I'm taking my son home now.
37:00No!
37:01What is this?
37:02That's your child, you idiot!
37:05Oh, shit.
37:06No!
37:07My son!
37:09He's really gone!
37:14This can't be real.
37:15You guys are lying to me.
37:17When is this sick joke of yours going to end?
37:19My son isn't dead!
37:21He has to still be alive!
37:24How is this possible?
37:27Dr. Chan said the child had been delivered.
37:36My son is still here!
37:38You just hid him somewhere!
37:41Where is the baby?
37:42I'm begging you!
37:44Tell me where the baby is!
37:46I wish all of this were fake as well.
37:50Why couldn't it have been you and Megan in that box?
37:57You came at just the right time, Dr. Chan.
38:01Didn't you tell me the baby was delivered?
38:03What the hell is going on right now?!
38:08My apologies, Dr. Harper.
38:10I said the baby had been delivered, but I also said that the child stopped breathing immediately after birth.
38:15You hung up before I could finish.
38:18What?
38:19How is that possible?
38:21Why do you seem so shocked?
38:24Didn't your wife call you at that time?
38:26I...
38:27But you didn't believe her and thought she was lying.
38:29Are you only realizing now that you were wrong?
38:34First of all, let's make something clear.
38:36He's my ex-husband.
38:37Furthermore, you all might not know, but the noble Dr. Harper was too busy caring for Megan's cat to save
38:43the life of his own nephew.
38:47What?
38:47Dr. Harper regularly preaches to us the importance of life.
38:51How could he just neglect a life like that?
38:54So the baby could have been saved?
38:56You just didn't go?
38:58Come on, Charles.
38:59Really?
39:00Don't forget, at the time, you were the one saying they were pulling a prank.
39:03Otherwise, why would I not go back to save them?
39:09Ava, Zoe, what are you doing here?
39:12We're deeply sorry we were unable to save Ella from the fire in time.
39:16Thus, we all decided to come and send Ella's baby off on its final journey.
39:20The fire? Are you telling me my house was really on fire?
39:26You're joking, right, Captain?
39:29Don't tell me you still haven't gone back to check on your home. There's nothing left.
39:32That fire didn't just claim the life of Ella's baby, but also killed a five-year-old girl.
39:38Captain, Ella said when she noticed the fire, she contacted you right away.
39:42Why didn't you report it immediately?
39:46Captain, you always tell us that every fire alarm, no matter the circumstances, must be prioritized.
39:52You told us never to let our personal feelings affect our judgment.
39:56But what about you?
39:57Do you honestly deserve to be in that uniform?
40:01I can't believe you chose to save a cat over saving people!
40:06And then you took a three-day leave to take care of the cat?!
40:09At the time, we thought you felt guilty and decided to visit Ella at the hospital after her miscarriage.
40:15Who would have thought you would abandon her to be with-
40:31Charles, the apartment is on fire!
40:33Megan's locked me in!
40:35Please come save us!
40:36My stomach is in so much pain!
40:39I'm not joking!
40:40Please, for the sake of the baby!
