Short filmTranscript
00:00:00When a mysterious billionaire asks you to marry him for a year and give him an heir, what do you
00:00:06say?
00:00:07He offered me 10 million dollars. I needed the money to pay for my little brother's heart surgery.
00:00:13I couldn't say no. So, I moved into his mansion, and slowly, I got to know him.
00:00:20His likes, his dislikes, his smile, those lips.
00:00:24The man behind the six-foot-five perfect body, the heart he liked to pretend he didn't have, and eventually,
00:00:32I started to realize I wanted this baby, and the strange little family we'd become.
00:00:39I wanted him. But my year with Gideon Maslow was coming to an end. Was it possible he felt the
00:00:45same way?
00:00:57I wanted him.
00:01:24Why won't you tell me who that woman is?
00:01:27Because I don't want to talk about other women.
00:01:33What does that mean?
00:01:39It means...
00:01:42I only want to think about you.
00:01:47My little dog.
00:02:13So, you're interested in becoming a surrogate.
00:02:15Well, I can't think of anything more fulfilling than bringing new life into this world.
00:02:20That's beautiful, sweetheart.
00:02:22Did you bring everything I asked for?
00:02:24Oh, yes. Medical records, blood work, it's all there.
00:02:30Everything seems to be in order.
00:02:32You're young, you're healthy.
00:02:34I can already think of several clients who would love you.
00:02:37Oh, that's great.
00:02:38It's a huge relief, honestly.
00:02:40Oh, but...
00:02:41Honey, wait.
00:02:42Your medical records are missing the details of your previous birth.
00:02:46Previous birth?
00:02:47To be a surrogate, you need to have given birth before.
00:02:50It was in the literature we sent over.
00:02:52No, please.
00:02:54Perhaps you can consider egg donation.
00:02:56That doesn't pay enough.
00:02:57Oh, sweetheart, egg donation is still a beautiful way to help bring new life into the world.
00:03:02Let me get you a pamphlet.
00:03:34Hey, cutie.
00:03:36Hey.
00:03:37Oh, no, don't get up.
00:03:39It's fine.
00:03:40How are you feeling?
00:03:42Well, I can't live like this much longer.
00:03:44Come on, don't say that.
00:03:45I'm supposed to start college in three months.
00:03:47And instead, I'm here, rotting, on a couch.
00:03:51You just have to take things easy until we...
00:03:53I know, I know.
00:03:59By the way, um, have you heard of someone named Gideon Maslow?
00:04:04Yeah, of course.
00:04:06He's the CEO of Maslow Enterprises.
00:04:08He's a billionaire.
00:04:10Why?
00:04:12Just saw the name somewhere.
00:04:18Who is this?
00:04:20Hi, uh, this is Alice Gardner.
00:04:22The Parkside Surrogacy Agency referred me.
00:04:25Okay.
00:04:26I'm here to help you have a baby.
00:04:28They were supposed to send me a selection of women to choose from.
00:04:32The agency is confident that I'm the best choice.
00:04:36Well, I can't speak about this now.
00:04:38My house tomorrow.
00:04:39I'll send a car.
00:04:41Sure, I'll text you right...
00:04:43Sure, I'll text you right...
00:04:46Sure, I'll text you right...
00:05:11Can I help you?
00:05:13Hi, yes, I'm here to see Mr. Maslow.
00:05:15I have an appointment.
00:05:17Oh, you must be Miss Gardner.
00:05:19Sorry, I thought you were selling something.
00:05:22What would I be selling?
00:05:24I wasn't sure.
00:05:25Ill-fitting jackets.
00:05:32Alice, I see you met my house manager, Helga.
00:05:36I see you met my house manager, Helga.
00:05:40Follow me.
00:05:49Sign me.
00:05:54What is it?
00:05:56It's a non-disclosure agreement.
00:06:00Guys usually offer to buy me a drink first.
00:06:04Anything that I say in this meeting will not be repeated.
00:06:08Or else I will unleash a legal firestorm on your ass.
00:06:12The likes of which you couldn't even imagine.
00:06:15Your lawyers are going to need lawyers.
00:06:17And their lawyers are going to need lawyers.
00:06:19Okay, jeez, I get it.
00:06:23Could have just asked me to pinky promise.
00:06:26I take those very seriously.
00:06:27All right, let's get down to business.
00:06:32I need a surrogate of sorts.
00:06:36Of sorts?
00:06:38My proposition is a bit unconventional.
00:06:41I need to hire someone to marry me and give birth to my heir.
00:06:49I'm sorry, what?
00:06:54Oh, you're one of those billionaires.
00:06:57Freaky psychopath.
00:06:59Well, the marriage would be a temporary situation.
00:07:01After the birth of my son.
00:07:03Your son?
00:07:04Or whatever.
00:07:04After the birth of my heir.
00:07:07We'll divorce.
00:07:08He'll retain visitation rights.
00:07:10But the marriage has to appear real for at least one year.
00:07:14Why?
00:07:14If I want my heir to eventually take over the company, he has to maintain my family's pristine reputation.
00:07:22See, the community would never accept a bastard.
00:07:25I don't get it.
00:07:27You have money and a nice face and a great body and you are tall.
00:07:32Like, how tall are you?
00:07:34Why can't you just find a real wife?
00:07:37I don't get out much.
00:07:39I enjoy the solitude.
00:07:41And enjoy paying people to have sex with you.
00:07:44Who said anything about sex?
00:07:46I know how husbands and wives make babies.
00:07:49No, we would take the medical approach.
00:07:52This is a business proposition, not a romantic one.
00:07:56These days, marriages, they're all financial relationships anyways.
00:08:00We would just be settling ours up front.
00:08:06I'm sorry, I can't do this.
00:08:08I agree to have a child for you, not to have a child with you.
00:08:17Ten million dollars.
00:08:23Ten?
00:08:25Ten mil- million dollars?
00:08:27Ten million dollars.
00:08:29Okay.
00:08:31Okay, I'll do it.
00:08:32Well, you can take your time and think.
00:08:35No, it's alright.
00:08:36Where do I sign?
00:08:37No, slow down, Alice.
00:08:38I still have to think about it.
00:08:40You're the first woman that I interviewed for the position.
00:08:43Well, look no further.
00:08:44You've found me, Mrs. Gideon Maslow.
00:08:49You really like to send all that money, don't you?
00:08:52No, I don't like it.
00:08:54I need it.
00:08:58My brother has a hole in his heart.
00:09:00He needs surgery, and the longer we wait, the less chance he has at making a full recovery.
00:09:06So why don't she ask your parents for the money?
00:09:09It's not an option.
00:09:12Look, I'll be the best fake wife you've ever had, okay?
00:09:16Please?
00:09:20Please?
00:09:26Alright.
00:09:27We'll call it highly motivated.
00:09:29I like that in a business partner.
00:09:32You're hired.
00:09:37I promise you, it's all quite standard.
00:09:40Hmm, yes, quite.
00:09:42It says here that I don't get the money until the baby is born.
00:09:45Yes, but I will front the cost of Nico's surgery, and all your day-to-day expenses will be taken
00:09:51care of.
00:09:53I have to live with you?
00:09:54I told you, the relationship has to appear real.
00:10:00Well, then Nico needs to live here, too.
00:10:02My brother can't be alone.
00:10:06Alright.
00:10:13Now what?
00:10:13Why aren't you signing?
00:10:15I want you to meet him first.
00:10:17Well, send a car.
00:10:18No, no, I can't have him leave the house.
00:10:20Is he a kid or is he a dog?
00:10:24He's sick, Gideon.
00:10:25Alright, well, I don't leave the estate.
00:10:27So if you want me to meet him, you'll bring him here.
00:10:31Alice has told me a lot about you.
00:10:34You're lucky.
00:10:35She just told me she was dating you.
00:10:38Well, everything that I do has a way of ending up in the press,
00:10:41so I asked her to keep our romance quiet, I hope.
00:10:45Well, I hope you can forgive me.
00:10:47Yeah, I think I can forgive anyone with a house this big.
00:10:50Don't get too excited, your heart.
00:10:58Karen, what are you doing here?
00:11:02Can't drop in to surprise my big brother?
00:11:04No, it's not a good time.
00:11:07I have guests.
00:11:08How was I supposed to know you've never had a guest?
00:11:13That's not true, Alice.
00:11:15This is my very funny brother, Karen.
00:11:17It's good to meet you.
00:11:19Jenny.
00:11:20Hi.
00:11:22And you are?
00:11:24Oh, I'm his girlfriend.
00:11:31Oh.
00:11:36So you two have been dating how long?
00:11:39I don't think it's been so long.
00:11:43I'm pretty sure I mentioned Alice to you.
00:11:46Pretty sure you did.
00:11:48No, I'm pretty sure I have.
00:11:50Um, hey, how about we take a walk outside, take a walk around the grounds?
00:11:55It's a beautiful day today.
00:12:00But you think that, like, maybe there would be enough more?
00:12:03I think everyone buys it.
00:12:07Do Carrie and Jenny have kids?
00:12:09They've been trying for some years, but, I mean, it's a sensitive topic.
00:12:13It's hard to hear that.
00:12:15Somebody's got to carry on the Maslow name.
00:12:18I'll give him my best shot.
00:12:23Alice?
00:12:23No, I'm good.
00:12:25Nico?
00:12:27Your brother!
00:12:28Nico, no!
00:12:38His pulse is steady.
00:12:41Nico, can you hear me?
00:12:42It's okay.
00:12:44Open your eyes.
00:12:44Breathe.
00:12:45Breathe.
00:12:55Oh, my God.
00:12:56I am so sorry.
00:12:59I, I, I, I, I, I think I just got a little overexcited.
00:13:02You've got nothing to be sorry about.
00:13:03It's fine.
00:13:04I can keep walking.
00:13:05Absolutely not.
00:13:07We're going to the hospital.
00:13:08Aiden, you're going to be okay to drive?
00:13:10I told you he shouldn't have come here.
00:13:14Alice!
00:13:14Alice!
00:13:23It's good that he's getting some rest.
00:13:28What did the lab say?
00:13:30His condition is getting worse.
00:13:32We need to take a more aggressive approach for this treatment.
00:13:36He should stay in the hospital until he's strong enough for surgery.
00:13:41You want him to live here full time?
00:13:43We'll make sure that he's very comfortable.
00:13:46And you can visit him whenever you like.
00:13:51Have you been able to figure out a payment plan?
00:13:56I've brokered a deal with the devil.
00:13:59Just have to sign it.
00:14:07I thought I'd never see you again.
00:14:09Do you have a pen?
00:14:15Helga will be overseeing your transition into the house.
00:14:19Welcome to the Maslow Estate.
00:14:21Must be exciting.
00:14:24Our bedroom is over there.
00:14:27It's all very nice.
00:14:30I work long hours, so try to keep quiet.
00:14:33I'll be spending most days at the hospital with Nico anyways.
00:14:43Hey, what's in here?
00:14:45Hey, you can have your run of the house, but that room is completely off limits.
00:15:08Helga, help Alice get situated.
00:15:09I have to make a phone call.
00:15:10Of course, Mr. Maslow.
00:15:14Thanks for all your help.
00:15:16Of course, anything for Gideon.
00:15:19You must do a really great job as house manager.
00:15:22I mean, he never wants to leave this place.
00:15:26Gideon is a very complicated and brilliant man.
00:15:31I'm sure he is.
00:15:32I've stood by him through great joy and great sorrow.
00:15:37That's nice.
00:15:40And sorrowful.
00:15:43Please feel free to call on me for anything that you need.
00:15:46I'll be nearby all the time, keeping an eye on you.
00:16:04I thought you'd be asleep.
00:16:08Restless, I guess.
00:16:12So, how was your first day at the house?
00:16:16I don't think Helga likes me very much.
00:16:20You know, she's been with me for years.
00:16:22She's very loyal.
00:16:24Yeah, she mentioned something about that.
00:16:27You know, I don't know why women become so paranoid.
00:16:31You know, I think you need to get some sleep.
00:16:33Because stress is bad for baby making.
00:16:37Our appointment is tomorrow.
00:16:39Are you going to come with me?
00:16:40I sent my sample to the doctor already.
00:16:43So he's just going to insert it into you.
00:16:47How romantic.
00:17:10How does the doctor also tell him?
00:17:11He denying that he is not connected to you.
00:17:18I'm not sure What's all about.
00:17:19I don't know what happened to you.
00:17:20I don't understand.
00:17:20You know, just I've never been to know whatever direction that you want.
00:17:21Baby to you, when you're Atlanta,
00:17:21Let's come with him.
00:17:22I love you.
00:17:34I don't know.
00:18:06I don't know.
00:18:29I don't know.
00:18:40I don't know.
00:18:41Miss Cardinal.
00:18:44This room is off limits to guests.
00:18:47I'm not a guest.
00:18:53You heard Mr. Maslow.
00:19:17Oh, thank you.
00:19:20And I've become such a fast reader these last few weeks.
00:19:23See? Perks of taking it easy.
00:19:25Exactly. Who needs friends when you have your sister's old books?
00:19:29Ha. Bunny.
00:19:33Really, I'm super proud of how seriously you're taking this recovery.
00:19:38Yeah, anything to get me back to real life faster.
00:19:41I hate to break it to you, buddy, but this is a lot more like real life than whatever you're
00:19:46missing over summer break.
00:19:47How is this real life?
00:19:50Having your priorities straight, compromising on joy because it's what you have to do, doesn't get more real life than
00:19:57that, babe.
00:20:00Looking good, isn't he?
00:20:01You've done great work.
00:20:03Well, I take tips.
00:20:06I'm a little strapped for cash at the moment.
00:20:08Saving up for a big surgery.
00:20:10Speaking of, we were able to set a date.
00:20:16The nurse will go over everything with you, but we're looking pretty good.
00:20:19Nico's on the up and up.
00:20:35So Haga told me you went snooping.
00:20:41What a tattletale.
00:20:43If I gave you access to every other room in the house, you couldn't respect my one wish?
00:20:47Have you ever heard the story of Bluebeard?
00:20:49Obviously not.
00:20:50Okay, well, it's a folktale about a woman who marries an older man named Bluebeard.
00:20:54She moves in with him, and he allows her access to every room in the house except for one.
00:20:59Sound familiar?
00:21:00So what?
00:21:02So, it turns out he had the corpses of six other wives stuffed in the room.
00:21:07Do you think I went through all this just to kill you?
00:21:10There's easier ways of doing that, and much more fun ones.
00:21:14Well, when you tell me something is off limits, I'm gonna assume the worst.
00:21:18You are so stubborn.
00:21:21We did not disclose that in the contract before we signed it.
00:21:24Well, you're a secretive.
00:21:26You didn't mention that.
00:21:28And I don't think you're really 6'5".
00:21:29No.
00:21:30I'm-I'm 6'5".
00:21:32Come on, Gideon.
00:21:33You can trust me.
00:21:36Who is she?
00:21:37The woman in the painting.
00:21:41She's the reason why I won't trust you.
00:21:43Or any other woman for that matter.
00:21:46Okay.
00:22:17Why won't you tell me who that woman is?
00:22:20Because I don't want to talk about other women.
00:22:26What does that mean?
00:22:32That means I only want to think about you, my little dove.
00:23:00What the-
00:23:25Hey.
00:23:28Hello.
00:23:28Crazy how we live in the same house, and I can still go days without seeing you.
00:23:33Big house.
00:23:34Gets lonely.
00:23:37Pancakes?
00:23:38Pancakes.
00:23:39Want some?
00:23:40No, I'm more of a waffle man.
00:23:42You know, there's more surface area for the syrup.
00:23:45Here.
00:23:45Try one.
00:23:47It's good.
00:23:47I promise.
00:23:53It's my secret recipe.
00:24:05It's good, right?
00:24:07It's good.
00:24:08It's really good.
00:24:10You're not going to have it?
00:24:11No, I had the craziest craving for them this morning, but now my stomach feels all weird.
00:24:17Alice.
00:24:24You think?
00:24:25Do you have a test?
00:24:27Do you have a test?
00:24:35What's it say?
00:24:39Negative.
00:24:40Damn.
00:24:41I really thought it would work.
00:24:43I'll get a better doctor.
00:24:45Now, maybe we need to do an egg retriever first, create an embryo, and plant it back into you.
00:24:51That could take months.
00:24:53But you signed the contract.
00:24:55You knew you were in this for the long haul.
00:24:57Oh, I know.
00:24:58I'm just bummed that it didn't work.
00:25:02Oh.
00:25:03Yeah.
00:25:04Oh.
00:25:06Me too.
00:25:18You know, there are other ways I could get pregnant that involves less needles and plastic cups and hospital gowns.
00:25:27Oh, yeah?
00:25:29Birds do it.
00:25:31Bees do it.
00:25:32I mean, why can't we do it?
00:25:39No, Alice, I'm not paying you to have sex with me.
00:25:42I know, but you are paying me to have a child with you, and this could really increase our chances.
00:25:48No, Alice, sex, it complicates things.
00:25:51Of course it does, when feelings are involved.
00:25:53But we are two business partners with a goal, and sex could be the solution.
00:26:00Aren't you a little bit curious?
00:26:04I'm curious.
00:26:06I know you don't trust women, or whatever, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't have any pleasure.
00:26:14And you must find me a little attractive.
00:26:16I mean, you want your heir to have half of my genes.
00:26:21You sure that's what you really want to do?
00:26:24I'm sure.
00:26:30There's just one thing you should know.
00:26:33Yeah?
00:26:33What is it?
00:26:36I'm a virgin.
00:26:40What?
00:26:42How?
00:26:43Our parents died when I was 17.
00:26:46I didn't have time to date if I wasn't working or I was with Nico.
00:26:50So you haven't been on one date?
00:26:52Men have asked me out, yeah, but they didn't understand why I couldn't leave my brother,
00:26:58and I didn't want to bring strangers back to our apartment.
00:27:02Look, this is the first time in my life where I haven't been worried about money.
00:27:07About how I'm going to pay rent, how I'm going to pay Nico's next medical bill.
00:27:11For once in my life, I can finally think about what I might want.
00:27:16What I might desire.
00:27:20So you were going to have my baby, and you've never had sex before.
00:27:24I know.
00:27:24I'm a saint.
00:27:26The Virgin Mary.
00:27:31What?
00:27:32Does this void the deal?
00:27:36I should have told you.
00:27:38Yes.
00:27:39You should have told me.
00:27:43Where are you going?
00:27:47I, uh, I have to think.
00:27:57Hello, brother.
00:27:59It's unlike you to have me over on a work day.
00:28:02I have a problem.
00:28:05Alice.
00:28:06Oh.
00:28:07A mystery girlfriend.
00:28:08Yeah, she's a, uh,
00:28:11a virgin.
00:28:16There's a twist.
00:28:20I'm very surprised.
00:28:21She's quite pretty.
00:28:24It's just a little more responsibility than I was prepared for.
00:28:29I know it's been a while since you've been with anyone, but I'm sure you remember how to do it.
00:28:35In fact, if I remember correctly, Ginny Mills was a virgin and he slept with her.
00:28:39So was I, so was I, and we were 16.
00:28:42Let's take it slow.
00:28:43Right?
00:28:45Come on.
00:28:46Let's wind a diner.
00:28:48Ah, Gideon.
00:28:53You're gonna have to behave like a gentleman.
00:28:58What will you do?
00:29:07Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?
00:29:09No, I knew I shouldn't have told you.
00:29:12Just hold on a second.
00:29:13No, I should have known better.
00:29:14It's a mistake.
00:29:15Every time someone finds out, they look at me different.
00:29:17Like, like I'm something fragile.
00:29:19They're afraid of breaking.
00:29:20No, hey, please don't tell me what's going on in my own mind.
00:29:25Look me in the eyes and tell me you didn't change your opinion of me.
00:29:28No, truthfully, I don't know.
00:29:30I don't know how I feel about it.
00:29:32I mean, it was certainly surprising.
00:29:33Bullshit.
00:29:34Alice?
00:29:36Just slow down, okay?
00:29:39Is that fair?
00:29:45Fair?
00:29:50How about I take you for a drink?
00:29:53I thought you don't leave the house.
00:29:59Secret bar.
00:30:00Very James Bond.
00:30:05You know, I don't think it's such a bad thing.
00:30:08Not you being a virgin and all.
00:30:10I think that it points to some level of discipline.
00:30:15Can we talk about something else?
00:30:18It's been a while since I've been on a date.
00:30:21I'm a bit rusty.
00:30:24So what do you do locked away here all the time?
00:30:27Dress up in costumes and fight crime?
00:30:31Well, it helps to have a full bar next to the living room.
00:30:35So you really never leave?
00:30:38Never.
00:30:39Not even on a drive?
00:30:41Not even on a drive.
00:30:45Wild.
00:30:45There are benefits, though.
00:30:49Like?
00:30:52I don't normally tell people this.
00:30:54But I make the greatest martini in the entire world.
00:31:00Oh, yeah?
00:31:02Prove it.
00:31:20Well, I'll give it to you.
00:31:21That is a damn good drink.
00:31:24Have you ever even had a martini?
00:31:26No.
00:31:28No.
00:31:28But I'm from Iowa.
00:31:29And we know drinking.
00:31:32Thank you, bartender.
00:31:36So what brings you to this bar so late at night?
00:31:42Well, you know, I was supposed to meet someone here.
00:31:46Was he a good-looking guy?
00:31:49Well, he certainly seems to think so.
00:31:52You been working here long?
00:31:55No, I took it over from my father.
00:31:59Yeah?
00:32:00Yeah.
00:32:02I grew up in this house.
00:32:07God, I thought I told you that.
00:32:09No.
00:32:11But you don't really tell me anything.
00:32:15Well, when my parents died, I took over the estate.
00:32:20Are we sleeping in their bed?
00:32:22No.
00:32:23No.
00:32:24Absolutely not.
00:32:25Well, I mean, maybe the mattress bed.
00:32:26Oh.
00:32:28Very sexy.
00:32:29Oh, I didn't know how it was supposed to be sexy.
00:32:32Well, it would certainly help pass the time.
00:32:36Oh, yeah.
00:32:50Oh, yeah.
00:33:18How was that?
00:33:20It didn't pass much time.
00:33:50Are you sure you want this?
00:33:52I'm sure.
00:33:58There's no pressure to feel any kind of way,
00:34:00and if it hurts or anything.
00:34:08I'll follow you, Lee, all right?
00:34:09You take control.
00:34:10Does that sound okay?
00:34:13I want you to take control.
00:34:34Good morning.
00:34:36Oh, hey.
00:34:38Good morning.
00:34:39You feeling okay?
00:34:41Yeah.
00:34:43That was good, right?
00:34:48Oh, yeah.
00:34:50It was really good.
00:34:54We could have another drink tonight.
00:34:57I actually forgot to tell you.
00:34:59We're going to have dinner with Karen and Jenny tonight.
00:35:01Dinner?
00:35:04Okay, but why?
00:35:06Well, I mean, we have to seem like a big, happy family.
00:35:09If we're getting divorced in a year, we don't have to appear that happy.
00:35:13Well, no.
00:35:13I mean, we can't have any cracks in our story.
00:35:16I love my brother, but, I mean, he's got a loud mouth.
00:35:19And Jenny will say anything about everything.
00:35:22Well, then we better get our story straight.
00:35:24If we're going to get grilled, we should be on the same page.
00:35:26Sure.
00:35:27We could practice.
00:35:29I mean, our brother isn't exactly Columbo,
00:35:32and Jenny and Helga are harmless.
00:35:35Helga's coming?
00:35:36Yeah, she says she wanted to get to know you.
00:35:39She has it out for me.
00:35:41It's one night.
00:35:42We can get through one night.
00:35:49Soup's almost ready.
00:35:50Just another few minutes.
00:35:52Thank you, Helga.
00:35:56It's nice to get some face time with you, Alice.
00:35:58I've been wanting to get to know you better.
00:36:00Well, you know what they say?
00:36:02You don't know someone until you see the meat.
00:36:08How do you eat, Alice?
00:36:11You want me to spoil the surprise?
00:36:13I'll tell you how I eat.
00:36:17Until I'm full.
00:36:19Can attest to that.
00:36:21So tell us, how did you and Gideon meet?
00:36:24And the questions begin before you even have our appetizers.
00:36:28It'll be another few minutes.
00:36:29What were you saying, Gideon, about how you two met?
00:36:32Well, dear, would you like me to, or would you like to?
00:36:36Well, I just love the way you tell it.
00:36:38All right.
00:36:39Well, it's a very funny story, actually.
00:36:43We met at a charity event a few years ago,
00:36:45and then we happened to come across each other online a few months ago.
00:36:51What's funny about that?
00:36:53The way life works, sometimes.
00:36:57Well, honey, you forgot the funniest part about how later that night you accidentally tripped me.
00:37:03Oh, and then she dropped her champagne glass.
00:37:10What event was it?
00:37:13What charity event was it?
00:37:20The one for the opera.
00:37:22I remember this.
00:37:24I literally remember Gideon telling me that he tripped someone.
00:37:28Don't you remember, Kieran?
00:37:30I told you about this.
00:37:31You know, I just don't remember you in our circle.
00:37:37You don't seem like the type.
00:37:41Why?
00:37:43Am I not high-class enough?
00:37:45I didn't mean that.
00:37:46No, it's okay.
00:37:47I get it.
00:37:49I would be worried, too, if I thought someone was trying to take advantage of my family.
00:37:53I know you have a lot to protect, and I don't come from a home like this.
00:37:59So you're right.
00:38:01I can't prove to you that I'm not some gold digger.
00:38:03All I can do is promise you that Gideon and I, we know the truth, and we trust each other.
00:38:20You really are a special girl.
00:38:23I had my doubts, of course.
00:38:25I couldn't be sure of your intentions, especially with the way you walked in that first day.
00:38:30Like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
00:38:32You two moved in together so quick, I assumed that Gideon got you pregnant.
00:38:38You can imagine my relief when I saw the negative pregnancy test.
00:38:44Pregnancy test?
00:38:48Were you going through my trash?
00:38:50Of course not, Alice.
00:38:52Be reasonable.
00:38:53I was cleaning up the mess you made in your bathroom and didn't know what I was looking at until
00:38:58it was too late.
00:38:59Are you trying to get pregnant?
00:39:00Of course not, Kieran, but accidents happen.
00:39:02We are trying.
00:39:08Gideon, you don't think it's a little rushed?
00:39:11Of course it's rushed.
00:39:12No, it's not.
00:39:14And how is that?
00:39:15Because we...
00:39:17We...
00:39:20It's okay, you can tell if I'm Gideon.
00:39:23I asked him to keep it a surprise, but we're getting married.
00:39:28What?
00:39:32When is this happening?
00:39:33Um, next week?
00:39:39And you're sure this is something you want to do?
00:39:45I'm positive.
00:39:51Well, in that case...
00:39:54Welcome to the family, Alice!
00:39:58Soup's on!
00:40:02I'm sorry, I told everyone we're getting married.
00:40:05I panicked.
00:40:06They were going to find out sooner or later.
00:40:08You know, now we need to pull together a quick wedding.
00:40:12Sounds easy enough.
00:40:13Oh, we got to get Nico cleared for a couple hours from the hospital.
00:40:17Why?
00:40:19Don't you want your brother there?
00:40:22How would that help the plan?
00:40:25No, I mean...
00:40:27Don't you want your brother at the wedding?
00:40:30Now's not a good time.
00:40:32And besides, he'll be there when I get married for real one day.
00:40:38Yeah, no, that's fine.
00:40:41I gotta get prepared.
00:40:45You gotta get a dress.
00:40:54I almost forgot.
00:41:13Need help?
00:41:15I think I got it.
00:41:17Please, let me help.
00:41:18It's what I'm here for.
00:41:23Are you nervous?
00:41:24Why would I be nervous?
00:41:26It's your wedding day.
00:41:28Right.
00:41:30I'm actually fine.
00:41:32Gideon's a great guy.
00:41:34I'm aware.
00:41:35I just mean there's nothing to be nervous about.
00:41:39I'm happy for you.
00:41:40Both of you.
00:41:41But especially you.
00:41:43What an amazing accomplishment.
00:41:46You should take your seat.
00:41:48The ceremony's starting soon.
00:41:50And I want to make sure you have a great view.
00:42:08It's bad luck to see each other before the wedding.
00:42:11I know.
00:42:12I don't think I can afford it.
00:42:15Why's that?
00:42:16Hold on one second.
00:42:18I've got a surprise for you.
00:42:24Congratulations.
00:42:28What are you doing here?
00:42:30It's your big day.
00:42:31We thought we'd surprise you.
00:42:33We?
00:42:34Me and Gideon.
00:42:37Hey.
00:42:38Hey.
00:42:39Hey.
00:42:43Think about how happy mom and dad would be to see us right now.
00:42:47Two orphans all grown up.
00:42:52Why did you get so old?
00:42:56We both got old way too young.
00:43:00I love that you're here.
00:43:02Okay.
00:43:02But nothing is worth risking your health.
00:43:06You're all I got.
00:43:07You know that?
00:43:10Not anymore.
00:43:15You're sure you're okay to sit through the whole ceremony?
00:43:17Oh yeah.
00:43:18Definitely good enough to have a few drinks later.
00:43:20Let's get you wifed.
00:43:25Do you, Alice, take Gideon to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:43:29Promising to love and cherish through joy and sorrow, through sickness and health, and whatever challenges you may face as
00:43:36long as you both shall live?
00:43:38I do.
00:43:42And do you, Gideon, take Alice to be your lawfully wedded wife?
00:43:46Promising to love and cherish through joy and sorrow, sickness and health, and whatever challenges you may face as long
00:43:52as you both shall live?
00:43:54I do.
00:43:55Would you please exchange rings?
00:44:05I do.
00:44:16By the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:44:20You may kiss the bride.
00:44:21I name it.
00:44:53God, you are so beautiful.
00:44:57You have no idea how mad I am at you.
00:45:15You were incredible today.
00:45:19Have you ever even heard of a boundary?
00:45:23I've closed nine-figure deals on seven continents.
00:45:27Of course I've heard of boundaries.
00:45:29I just... I don't know. I thought you'd be more appreciative.
00:45:34How? You totally ignored what I said.
00:45:37Because it wasn't what you wanted.
00:45:39What I want is for Nico to be healthy for his surgery.
00:45:42You jeopardized his health.
00:45:44Do you know how big of a violation that is?
00:45:46It's fine.
00:45:47Kieran is driving him back as we speak.
00:45:50He's going to get plenty of rest for his procedure tomorrow.
00:45:52You're not his father.
00:45:53You're not his mother.
00:45:59Alice...
00:46:00No, I don't want to see you.
00:46:02I'm moving to another room to tell Helga whatever you want.
00:46:06Tell her we're fighting.
00:46:08No, Alice!
00:46:22Today's the day.
00:46:24First day of the rest of my life.
00:46:27Or the last. We'll see.
00:46:28God, I hate when you say stuff like...
00:46:30I'm just joking. Relax.
00:46:33It'll be fine.
00:46:37So, where's your husband?
00:46:39You know, he doesn't leave the house much.
00:46:42Or at all, apparently.
00:46:44I was hoping he'd be with you.
00:46:47Well, don't worry about me.
00:46:49The doctor's going to take you to the operating room soon.
00:46:52And I will be here the whole time.
00:46:54I know you will be.
00:46:56I know you will be.
00:47:20Gideon.
00:47:21Gideon.
00:47:23You left the house.
00:47:25It was getting stuffy in there.
00:47:29What are you doing here?
00:47:31I just, I really want to be here with you.
00:47:52I'm a nervous wreck.
00:47:53It's going to be fine.
00:47:55You want to know how I know?
00:47:58I don't know.
00:47:59Because I think you promise.
00:48:04I take these so seriously.
00:48:21Alice?
00:48:24Yes.
00:48:25How is he?
00:48:31Nico's surgery was a huge success.
00:48:34They'll bring him in here in just a moment.
00:48:36Okay.
00:48:37So everything went well?
00:48:39Better than we could have hoped for.
00:48:41We'll keep him for two more days and then he'll be free to go home.
00:48:45Two days?
00:48:46Is that enough time?
00:48:48I want him to have around the clock medical care.
00:48:50What if there are complications?
00:48:51We don't foresee any complications.
00:48:54Money's not going to be a concern.
00:48:56Whatever it takes is fine.
00:48:58Money's not a concern for us either.
00:49:00The thing is, I don't think he needs to be here any longer.
00:49:04He'll make a speedy recovery.
00:49:14No, but I need to see those incredible экstree's fundamentals.
00:49:18Right?
00:49:18What?
00:49:20Yes.
00:49:20That's what I'm saying.
00:49:22Oh, shit.
00:49:23Oh, shit.
00:49:23Oh, shit.
00:49:25Oh, shit.
00:49:25Oh, shit.
00:49:27Oh, shit.
00:49:27Oh, shit.
00:49:30I'm sorry.
00:49:30Oh, shit.
00:49:38Gideon?
00:49:55What are you doing?
00:50:05I want this to be Nico's room.
00:50:09You don't have to do that. It's a big house. There are plenty of rooms.
00:50:14No. I'm ready to move on. To start over.
00:50:20Are you ready to tell me about her?
00:50:29Krista. She was quite the artist. Very famous. I'm sure you've heard of her.
00:50:36I'm absolutely sure I haven't.
00:50:40What happened between you two?
00:50:42She lied. She knew I wanted an heir. She had me fall in love with her. All the while knowing
00:50:51that she didn't want to become a mother.
00:50:55Women have always lied. Even when I was a kid, they would lie. Just to come to see my house.
00:51:03And then as we grew up, it became more about the gifts and the vacations.
00:51:07My point is, I'm used to it.
00:51:13What made her different?
00:51:16She really had me fooled.
00:51:22You know, I had to pay her off just to never see her again.
00:51:27I was so...
00:51:31Angry.
00:51:32I didn't want to see anyone.
00:51:34And that's when the rumors started.
00:51:36Recluse billionaire.
00:51:38Gideon Maslow.
00:51:40Must be hard to hear people say that about you.
00:51:43No, I didn't care what they said anymore.
00:51:46I had given up on love.
00:51:48But I had never given up on an heir.
00:51:51You know, I'm not gonna hurt you like she did.
00:51:55You really can trust me.
00:51:59Can I tell you a secret?
00:52:04I think I believe you.
00:52:05You know?
00:52:34I don't think that's it.

00:59:00all the time.
00:59:00I'm a man a virgin.
00:59:03Falling in love.
00:59:11Okay, I am going to do something that is very unlike me and actually give a shit for
00:59:20a second.
00:59:24Gideon, aside from the doctor that delivered you, I have known you longer than anyone on
00:59:29this planet. And once I finally kill that doctor, it'll be just me. Through all the parties, all the
00:59:35success, and all the women, I've never seen you as happy as when you are with Alice.
00:59:45I know she lied to you. She lied to me from the very beginning, from the absolute onset. Everything
00:59:50was built on a lie. But if you're going to trust something, trust your heart. Do you really
01:00:01want to lose her? Is it really worth that?
01:00:12So it was never real?
01:00:15It wasn't.
01:00:16What? Why didn't you tell me? I didn't think you'd understand. You try to protect me
01:00:22way too much, Alice. That's my job. And you've done a good job. You fixed my broken heart.
01:00:31But now I can do all the things that we dreamed about when we were kids. I don't need a
01:00:36mom.
01:00:37I need a sister. I love you so much. Can I tell you something?
01:00:44Always.
01:00:47I really loved him too.
01:01:12Hey.
01:01:16Hi.
01:01:21well i'm gonna go to my room be nice
01:01:27i'm sorry for lying to you no i'm sorry for giving it all up and wanting to throw it all
