Short filmTranscript
00:06Easy. She's still downstairs working the room.
00:12Five years. I'm tired of playing husband.
00:15Once tonight is over, the Voss family will be in my hands.
00:26Babe, it's your fifth anniversary tonight.
00:29I can't stand another second of this fake little holiday.
01:12I can't stand another second of this fake little holiday.
01:26Of course.
01:28All right, go. She'll be up any minute to change for the toast.
01:33Happy fifth anniversary, darling.
01:38Chloe?
01:39Are you in there?
01:56Honey, I came in to find our wedding photos and got lost in the album.
02:01Silly girl. Why are you sitting on the floor? It's cold down there.
02:11Got emotional? No rush. We have countless five-year anniversaries ahead of you.
02:17Yes. Forever. Together.
02:23Two. Forever together.
02:27Oh, I'm sorry, honey. I'm so clumsy.
02:31It's all right, sweetheart. It's just a rug.
02:35But the wine...
02:36You can drink wine another time. You look pale.
02:38I'll warm up some milk for you.
02:41Luther Reed, you are so fucking cool.
02:44Good girl. Drink this and sleep well tonight.
02:48So you've made up your mind.
02:50If I don't drink it, he won't let this go tonight.
02:57Honey, I'll finish the rest before I go to sleep.
03:01That's my good girl.
03:05I'm going to take my makeup off first.
03:28Luther Reed, you want to take every goddamned thing from me?
03:33I'll make damn sure you pay back every last, last fucking bit of it.
03:47It's not time yet.
03:48I have to endure this now.
03:51Trust me, babe.
03:57Luther.
04:13Good morning, sweetheart. Did you sleep all right?
04:16My head is killing me.
04:18I think I had nightmares all night.
04:20Someone kept chasing me.
04:21It's all right.
04:24Maybe the board has been putting too much pressure on you.
04:27My company is running smoothly now.
04:29Let me help take some of that off your plate,
04:31and you won't be so exhausted.
04:33Darling, you're so good to me.
04:37Luther, are you that desperate already?
04:40Then don't blame me for what happens next.
04:42Sweetie, the doctor says your nervous exhaustion is getting worse.
04:46I made you some milk.
04:49Honey, do you know what I had this goddamn dream about last night?
04:54I dreamed you never loved me at all.
04:56All you ever cared about was the fucking Voss family trust.
05:00That's not funny.
05:01Really?
05:02Because without the Voss family backing your sorry ass,
05:05your little fucking bankrupt startup would have been liquidated by now.
05:08Mr. CEO.
05:11You're fucking pathetic, Luther Reed.
05:13No matter how expensive that goddamn suit is,
05:15you're still just the Voss family's...
05:17Shut the fuck up!
05:19No, I fucking didn't.
05:21You did that yourself.
05:23It's all your fault.
05:27Mr. Reed, your wife's ankle is sprained.
05:30She needs rest.
05:30I also recommend a full brain scan just to be safe.
05:33Okay, fine.
05:33Get the car.
05:34Now!
05:41Mr. Reed, there's no need to prepare a car.
05:43Damon Blake!
05:44This is trespassing!
05:45Get the fuck out!
05:46Now!
05:52This is the trust's designated physician.
05:54He'll re-examine you and issue a legal report.
05:57If the heir suffers a non-accidental injury,
05:59the trust committee will step in immediately.
06:01We're assuming temporary protective custody.
06:04In plain English,
06:05if you pushed her,
06:06we can legally take her away.
06:11She is my wife.
06:12I have the right to decide where she receives treatment.
06:16Your rights end right now.
06:18You're taking Miss Voss to my private hospital.
06:20No.
06:21Damon, I won't go.
06:22It was my fault.
06:23I lost my footing.
06:24My husband, he didn't mean it.
06:26I don't blame him.
06:27I don't want to go to some cold hospital.
06:28I want to stay here in this house with you, please.
06:31Of course, darling.
06:32I can't bear to let you go either.
06:34Chloe,
06:35do you know what you're saying?
06:37Staying here is dangerous.
06:44Chloe,
06:46wear this
06:47for protection.
06:48Very well if the client insists,
06:50but as the trusteeer,
06:51I have one condition.
06:52There must be professional round-the-clock personal care.
06:54I will arrange a dedicated nursing team to move in.
06:57Actually,
06:59I contacted a professional private caretaker through an agency earlier.
07:03She should be arriving any minute now.
07:20Miss Lynn,
07:21you're finally here.
07:23This is the top-tier nurse practitioner I was telling you about.
07:26She's extremely professional and she does exactly what she's told.
07:31Darling,
07:32since Damon is so concerned about me,
07:34let Ivy stay here to look after me.
07:36Yes,
07:36Mr. Reed.
07:37I'm a fully qualified professional.
07:39I will take
07:40very good care of your wife.
07:42This is Chloe's pick,
07:43Mr. Reed.
07:44Surely you don't have any objections.
07:46Of,
07:47of course.
07:48Welcome,
07:49Miss Lynn.
07:50How much longer do I have to play maid for that woman?
07:53You said you'd take care of her.
07:55You said soon!
07:56Shut up!
07:57Are you insane?
07:58We're at a critical point right now.
07:59I don't care anymore.
08:01Watching you play the loving husband with her,
08:03it makes me sick!
08:04Sick!
08:05You'd better get moving right now!
08:07I got it.
08:08I'll deal with that woman sooner or later.
08:09Or I'll make things very difficult for you.
08:12For now,
08:13you just sit tight and behave.
08:14Hello,
08:14is that Ivy?
08:16I thought I heard your voice just now.
08:22Darling,
08:22darling,
08:23what are you doing here?
08:24I was just looking for my ring,
08:27my wedding ring.
08:28Have you seen it?
08:30Oh,
08:31Ivy,
08:31you're here too.
08:32What a coincidence.
08:36I,
08:36I was just asking Ivy if she'd seen your ring.
08:39Thought she could help look for it too.
08:42Honey,
08:42you seem off today.
08:44Work must be exhausting.
08:46Take care.
08:47Don't
08:47overexert yourself.
08:49Ivy,
08:50your face is so red.
08:52Since Mr. Reed needs your help,
08:53as an employee of the Vos Himmold,
08:55you should serve with dedication.
08:56You!
08:56Enough!
08:57Chloe,
08:58go back to your room and rest.
09:25Uncle George.
09:27I put you in charge of that subsidiary
09:29to acquire the projects in Chloe's hands.
09:31Not to let that woman by your side
09:32go online and broadcast to the world
09:34that you're swallowing the entire Vos group.
09:36Uncle,
09:37no,
09:37that's just nonsense from random people online.
09:39I had nothing to do with it.
09:40You're nothing but a live-in son-in-law.
09:42If I see another headline about Vos changing its name to Reed,
09:46I won't mind letting Chloe replace you
09:48with your obedient husband.
09:58Babe,
09:59you're back.
10:00I gained so many followers on my live-droom today.
10:03Who the fuck told you to go live?
10:04Who the fuck lets you spout all that bullshit?
10:07Luther,
10:08don't be like this.
10:09If you want to die,
10:10don't drag me down with you.
10:11Even I have to kiss up to the Vos name right now
10:14for fuck's sake.
10:15You can't even get past the front door of a real gala.
10:18And you've got the fucking nerve to go around
10:20telling people you're going to be the lady of the house?
10:35I don't dare.
10:36I really don't.
10:37But Mr. Reed will ruin my son.
10:41Martha,
10:43Luther is using your son's gambling debts to threaten you.
10:46I understand why you're afraid to fight back.
10:48Ma'am,
10:49you knew.
10:50God,
10:51I deserve this.
10:51I never should have helped him hurt you.
10:53I'm not forcing you to choose right this sound,
10:55but remember this.
10:55Once Luther is done using you,
10:57you and your son will be the first people he silence.
11:00What I'm offering is the only way the two of you survive.
11:04Starting tonight,
11:05switch them for vitamins.
11:06Keep the evidence safe,
11:07and I'll keep your son safe.
11:10We both get what we need.
11:23Martha,
11:24did you mail the letter I gave you for Dr. Young?
11:30I-I mailed it, sir.
11:32The Dr. Young you arranged at the Andrew Care Center.
11:36Did I say which care center?
11:38Honey,
11:39don't scare Martha.
11:41My head hurts so much.
11:45Sweetheart,
11:46did you sleep badly last night?
11:48Actually,
11:50I just remembered something.
11:52Do you remember what year we first met?
11:54And your late aunt,
11:56what color dress was she wearing?
12:00The first time we met was,
12:01was it 2022?
12:03No,
12:03maybe 2020?
12:08It was a purple dress,
12:10wasn't it?
12:15Purple was right,
12:16but she mixed up the year.
12:17If you can't remember,
12:18don't force it.
12:19Here,
12:19have some warm milk.
12:23Good girl.
12:25Take your pills.
12:33Don't worry.
12:34I'll do whatever you say.
12:36So many shadows moving around.
12:39I'm so dizzy.
12:40That's right.
12:41Sleep well,
12:42my good wife.
12:51Soon.
12:54Five million once.
12:56Five million twice.
12:58Congratulations,
13:00Mr. Reid,
13:00on winning this commemorative
13:02charity necklace.
13:03This will be the largest donation
13:05to the Voss Foundation tonight.
13:07Like it,
13:08and remember to behave.
13:10Babe,
13:11that woman is still lying at home.
13:16I'm sorry,
13:17Mr. Reid,
13:18this card has been frozen.
13:20Impossible.
13:20I'm the trust executive.
13:22Sorry,
13:22honey.
13:23I think you need to catch up.
13:29Why are you here?
13:30As the heir to the Voss family,
13:32how could I miss
13:33the Family Foundation's
13:34charity gala?
13:34Under the trust dimension agreement
13:36signed by Mrs. Chloe Voss,
13:37any single expense
13:38over one million
13:39requires my scam manager
13:40of the essence.
13:41So for this payment,
13:42I decline to sign.
13:44Since the trust won't pay,
13:46and Mr. Reid
13:47has already placed
13:48the winning bid,
13:49this will be treated
13:50as your personal donation.
13:52Mr. Reid,
13:53the five million
13:54is coming out
13:55of your own pocket.
13:56Honey,
13:57you've always said
13:57you wanted to do charity
13:58on your own merits.
14:00Today,
14:00you finally have the chance
14:01to prove it.
14:02Everyone will applaud you.
14:08Chloe,
14:09you're coming home with me.
14:10You're clearly too sick
14:11to think straight.
14:11Don't touch her.
14:14This is between
14:15husband and wife.
14:19As of today,
14:21I am fully responsible
14:22for Ms. Chloe Voss's
14:23legal,
14:24financial,
14:25and personal security matters.
14:28Damon Blake!
14:29Don't get too comfortable.
14:31She's my wife.
14:32Her money and her body
14:33are legally mine.
14:34Remember this.
14:35Chloe Voss
14:36has never belonged to you.
14:37You are the one
14:38attached to her.
14:50Just wait.
14:59Are you done?
15:00You could be back
15:01any minute.
15:05Martha,
15:06bring me ice water
15:07in the studio.
15:08He's back.
15:12I can't get out
15:13in time.
15:17This way.
15:30Someone's been in here.
15:33Come out.
15:43What the fuck?
15:44What the hell?
15:52Luther is suspicious now.
15:53We need to be much more careful
15:55from here on.
16:02What the fuck?
16:03What are you doing?
16:04Trying to burn the house down?
16:06I'm sorry, sir.
16:07I slipped and knocked
16:08the soup pot over.
16:10The things on my desk
16:11in the study
16:11were moved too.
16:12Is that you?
16:15Yes.
16:16I bumped them
16:17while I was cleaning.
16:19You should have been
16:20more careful.
16:20Put everything back in order.
16:23Well done, Martha.
16:25Well done, Martha.
16:41Sweetheart,
16:42your nervous exhaustion
16:44has been getting worse.
16:45I can't keep watching you
16:47like this.
16:48Dr. Young,
16:49here to take you
16:50to a care facility
16:51to recover.
16:53Honey,
16:53you've really gone
16:54to a lot of trouble
16:54for my illness.
16:56Dr. Young,
16:57if I'm being admitted,
16:59shouldn't we have
16:59a private consultation
17:00first according to procedure?
17:05Mr. Reed,
17:06it is necessary.
17:07Please wait outside
17:08for a few minutes.
17:11Ms. Voss,
17:13Mr. Reed has already
17:14briefed me
17:14on the situation.
17:16Cooperate,
17:17and I can issue
17:18the evaluation report.
17:23It contains
17:24a complete chain
17:25of evidence,
17:26academic fraud,
17:27improper prescriptions,
17:28bribery,
17:29all of it.
17:30Where...
17:31where did you get this?
17:33Dr. Young,
17:34I know Luther hired you
17:35to be smart enough
17:37to understand
17:38your position.
17:39Now write my evaluation
17:40based on the truth.
17:42I am perfectly clear-headed,
17:44and I have no illness.
17:50Dr. Young,
17:51the consultation is over,
17:52right?
17:52When can you take her away?
17:56Mr. Reed,
17:57after my professional consultation,
17:58Mrs. Voss is lucid,
18:00logical,
18:01and fully capable
18:01of making her own decisions.
18:03She does not meet
18:05the admissions criteria.
18:10What did you say?
18:19That old motherfucker
18:21took my money
18:21and still switched sides
18:23at the last minute.
18:25Still dragging your feet?
18:27Enough.
18:29Luther,
18:30I'm pregnant.
18:33You're pregnant?
18:35Six weeks already.
18:36You better figure this out fast
18:38before I start showing.
18:40Shut up!
18:41Chloe can't know about this.
18:42Not now.
18:47Congratulations, darling.
18:49Chloe,
18:50how long have you been there?
18:52Let me explain.
18:54Explain what?
18:56This is wonderful news.
18:58It's Luther's child.
18:59You can't throw me out.
19:02Of course.
19:03Since you're carrying
19:04the eldest son
19:05of the Reed Mamley
19:06hardworking
19:06to reward your double
19:08your nursing salary?
19:18The real show
19:20hasn't even started.
19:35Mr. Reed,
19:36I heard the psychiatrist
19:37you brought in
19:37this afternoon
19:39change sides on you.
19:45Counselor Blake
19:46is very well informed.
19:53To your health,
19:55Mrs. Voss.
19:57Thank you for your concern,
19:59Counselor Blake.
20:00Sweetheart,
20:01why is your face so red?
20:04Are you running a fever,
20:05or...
20:06Maybe the dining room
20:07is a little warm.
20:08Is it?
20:11Oops.
20:12Dropped my napkin.
20:16Oops, honey.
20:17I'm so sorry.
20:22It's fine.
20:24I'll go change.
20:25Enjoy your dinner,
20:26Counselor Blake.
20:35Chloe.
20:36Back at the table,
20:37were you hiding
20:38something from me?
20:38No.
20:39I just have a headache.
20:41I'm going to rest
20:42in my room.
20:44Chloe Voss.
20:45She's definitely
20:45hiding something.
20:46I want to see
20:47what game she's playing.
20:59What is this?
21:13Ivy Lynn,
21:13you ungrateful
21:14son of a fucking bitch!
21:15I paid your debts,
21:16gave you a way out,
21:17and you kept fucking leverage
21:17behind my back,
21:18waiting to bite me
21:19the second I turned away!
21:24That hurts!
21:25Luther,
21:26what are you doing?
21:27Look at what you've
21:27been fucking keeping
21:28from me.
21:29You were never
21:29truly with me.
21:31You've been guarding
21:32against me,
21:33scheming against me
21:34this whole fucking time!
21:35No.
21:36Babe,
21:37listen to me.
21:38I was just afraid
21:39you'd abandon me.
21:41I kept you,
21:42and you treated me
21:43like a fucking fool!
21:49I have Luther's
21:50private evidence
21:50for embezzlement
21:51and money laundering,
21:52and now,
21:53they're turning
21:53on each other.
21:54I like her turning
21:54on each other.
22:00Run!
22:01Where do you think
22:01you're going?
22:04Help me!
22:06Ma'am,
22:06please help me!
22:07Luther has lost
22:08his mind!
22:14The middle of the night,
22:16why are you making
22:16some of those?
22:19Sweetheart,
22:19did we wake you?
22:20This woman has
22:21sticky fingers.
22:22She stole valuables
22:23from the house,
22:24so I'm disciplining her.
22:26I didn't steal anything!
22:27Luther,
22:28it's because...
22:29shut up!
22:33Is that so?
22:34If her hands are that dirty,
22:35throw her out tomorrow.
22:49Gone.
22:51Luther,
22:52it's all gone.
22:59What's this?
23:01You have leverage,
23:02John Luther.
23:03I can erase
23:04your old lowlife records
23:05and pay off every debt.
23:06You find me
23:06his criminal evidence.
23:08I'm leaving the pills here.
23:09Whether you use them
23:10and when
23:11is entirely up to you.
23:13Once he's truly unhinged,
23:15you'll be safe.
23:28Sir?
23:29Your coffee?
23:34He actually drank it.
23:40At least you know
23:41your place.
23:42You think because
23:43Chloe said to throw you out,
23:44you can run,
23:45starting today?
23:47You're a servant
23:48in this house.
23:49Take one step out the door
23:50and I'll break your legs.
23:52I...
23:53I know.
24:02The money came through!
24:04My company is saved!
24:05I'm the real master of this house!
24:07Sooner or later,
24:07Voss Group will carry...
24:18Chloe Voss?
24:20You think you've won?
24:22No!
24:26I'm your husband!
24:28You will never get rid of me!
24:30Chloe...
24:31Luthor is starting
24:32to lose control.
24:35And Ivory.
24:38She made Luthor coffee
24:40and watched him drink it.
24:43Good.
24:44Ready to close the net.
24:47Any minute now.
24:54Five years!
24:55Five years
24:56and I got nothing!
24:57I won't accept it!
24:58I won't!
25:03The drug is working.
25:05Little Bill lose
25:06normal reasoning.
25:07All that will be left
25:08is rage and greed.
25:14Ladies and gentlemen,
25:15Chloe's long illness
25:17has shaken the stock price.
25:19It's time for a change.
25:21If,
25:22at tomorrow's board meeting,
25:24you all vote
25:24to remove Chloe,
25:26I guarantee
25:27your options
25:28will at least
25:28triple.
25:34Luthor,
25:34if you can bring in
25:35the funding,
25:36then for the company's sake,
25:37the board will support you.
25:41Mr. Reid,
25:42you sold Voss' lifeline
25:44to a century-old enemy.
25:46You call that
25:47top-tier venture capital?
25:49Luthor Reid,
25:50in light of everything
25:51you've done,
25:52I have filed for divorce.
25:54It's time for you
25:55to get out of my house.
25:58Directors,
25:59look closely.
26:01To cover his own losses,
26:04he sold the core cards
26:06of your project
26:10to the August Foundation,
26:12the arc-enemy of Voss.
26:14Uncle George!
26:15George,
26:16you!
26:20Don't call me uncle.
26:21Voss group has no room
26:23for a traitor like you.
26:24Officer,
26:25he must be investigated
26:27thoroughly.
26:27Luthor Reid,
26:28you are suspected of
26:29embezzlement
26:30and major commercial fraud.
26:31You're coming with us.
26:34Chloe Vox,
26:36do you think you've won?
26:37This isn't over!
26:41George won't just stand by.
26:43He'll find a way
26:44to save Luthor.
26:46Luthor may have been arrested,
26:47but the mess he left behind
26:48is still here!
26:50The market panic
26:51hasn't stopped.
26:52You swore you could
26:53stabilize things
26:54and look at the stock price.
26:55You are not fit
26:56to sit in the CEO's chair.
27:00Uncle George,
27:01what's the rush?
27:03If there are rats
27:04in the company,
27:05you have to set out bait
27:05before you can catch them
27:06in the act.
27:19Mrs. Vox!
27:21Are...
27:22Officers?
27:22It's him.
27:23They broke into the CEO's office
27:24in the middle of the night
27:25to steal poor company secrets.
27:30Who dares play games at Vox
27:32in the middle of the night?
27:34How dare you betray the company?
27:35You used my private seal
27:37and conspired with Luthor!
27:40Officer,
27:41I am filing
27:42an official report
27:43against him.
27:46Officer,
27:47these are all
27:48the irregular cash flows
27:49uncovered by Vox Group's
27:50internal risk team.
27:52We will fully cooperate
27:53with the investigation.
28:02Bravo!
28:03Chloe Vox,
28:05you think tossing
28:05this scapegoat in
28:06will save your precious Vox?
28:07You really think
28:08I came here tonight
28:09just to let you
28:09catch us in the act?
28:11Five minutes ago,
28:12I used the VP's
28:13highest level authority.
28:14I filed an irreduvable
28:16transfer of Vox's
28:17core technology
28:18with the patent office.
28:19The recipient
28:20is the August conciliant.
28:22That agreement
28:23went through the fast track.
28:25Once accepted,
28:26not even God
28:27can stop it.
28:29The juiciest P. Vox
28:31already belongs
28:31to someone else!
28:34Are you done yelling?
28:36Mr. Reid,
28:38do you understand
28:38how modern commercial law works?
28:40Six hours ago,
28:42the court granted
28:42our injunction
28:43preserving core assets.
28:45As of three o'clock
28:45this afternoon,
28:46any transfer involving
28:47Vox core technology
28:49is legally void.
28:50The moment
28:50your fast track agreement
28:51hits the patent office system,
28:53the court's freeze order
28:54kicks it right back.
28:56No.
28:57That's impossible.
28:59Luther Reid,
29:00to deal with you,
29:01all I need
29:02is a lawful,
29:03compliant process.
29:05That's more than enough
29:06to bury you for good.
29:08Security,
29:09remove this trespasser
29:10from the company.
29:16Beautifully done,
29:17my queen.
29:24That lunatic Luther
29:25finally agreed
29:26to take me out.
29:27If I can be seen
29:29at an event like this,
29:30maybe some real
29:31power player
29:32will notice me.
29:33Lose the backwoods look.
29:35Everyone here matters.
29:37If you embarrass me,
29:38you'll regret it
29:39when we get home.
29:41I don't know.
29:48Mr. Jang,
29:48Mr. Lee,
29:49long time no see.
29:50This is my
29:51personal assistant.
29:56Mr. Reid's assistant,
29:58I don't believe
29:59we've met.
30:13Ma'am,
30:14please save me!
30:16Luther is manic
30:17every day now.
30:18He's holding my past
30:19over me so tightly
30:20I don't even dare run.
30:22If this goes on,
30:23he'll kill me.
30:23Please help me!
30:25Luther isn't
30:25completely gone yet.
30:27Inside,
30:28inside there's
30:28an encrypted phone
30:29and cache.
30:30If you want to live,
30:32wait for me to contact you.
30:40Ladies and gentlemen,
30:41as a member of the Vos family,
30:43it pains me to come forward
30:44with this,
30:44but I have no choice.
30:46Vos groups
30:47core technology
30:47is currently entangled
30:48in a serious legal dispute
30:50over ownership.
30:51Mr. Reid,
30:52are you suggesting
30:52that Vos' crown jewel patents
30:53are illegitimate?
30:55I can't comment
30:55on the specifics.
30:57That's for the courts
30:57to decide.
30:59But what I can tell you
31:00is this.
31:01Just yesterday,
31:01the court issued
31:02an emergency
31:03asset freeze order.
31:04A company that needs
31:06a court injunction
31:07just to hold on
31:07to its assets,
31:08what does that tell you
31:09about the rot
31:09inside its management?
31:10My wife,
31:11Miss Chloe Vos,
31:12Vos is making dangerally
31:13aggressive decisions
31:14and I fear,
31:15genuinely fear,
31:16that every shareholder's
31:17hard-earned money
31:17is about to go up in smoke.
31:21Mrs. Vos,
31:22Luther is using
31:23the court injunction
31:23to spread lies in the media.
31:25Shareholders are panicking
31:26and several investment firms
31:27we had lined up
31:28have just informed us
31:29they're putting all funding
31:29on hold.
31:30Luther Reed,
31:31you know you can't have Vos,
31:32so now you want to
31:33crush the brand value instead?
31:35He's trying to make us
31:36lose our composure.
31:38Notify my private team.
31:39Pull all the venture funds.
31:41Damon,
31:41that's everything you own.
31:42If the market doesn't respond,
31:44you'll be bankrupt.
31:45As long as your throne holds,
31:46I don't care whether
31:47I win or lose.
31:51Miss Vos,
31:52we have a problem.
31:53George just used
31:54his odd authority
31:54to trigger a 24-hour
31:55procedural freeze
31:56in the finance system,
31:57citing questions
31:57about the source of funds.
31:59That old fog's George.
32:00He's using these 24 hours
32:02to choke off my funding.
32:03Mr. Blake,
32:03Mrs. Vos,
32:04without capital support,
32:05we won't make it
32:05through the morning!
32:08Put up the full credit
32:09of my loss term as collateral.
32:10Remarkage every asset
32:11we just acquired.
32:13Use the liquida
32:13to inject funds into Vos
32:14and force the stock back up.
32:19Stop.
32:20Cross-collateral like that
32:21is a gray area.
32:22If they set you up
32:23for money laundering,
32:23they'll destroy you.
32:27Chloe,
32:28I will never let anything
32:29push you back
32:30into the abyss.
32:31Even if the price is me.
32:34Mr. Blake!
32:35Mrs. Vos!
32:36The funds are in!
32:37Vostok has stabilized!
32:38We held it!
32:52Counselor Blake,
32:53thank you for bleeding
32:54yourself dry for Vos.
32:55I filed a report
32:56with the SEC
32:57for illegal market manipulation.
33:00Before I go to prison,
33:02I'm taking you down with me!
33:07Wait for me.
33:18Counselor Blake,
33:19how does it feel
33:20meeting in a place
33:21like this?
33:26Damon Blake,
33:28this is your only way out.
33:30Sign this statement
33:31admitting you moved
33:32those funds
33:33behind Chloe's back.
33:34I'll withdraw my report.
33:36Luther Reed,
33:37did your manic episode
33:38fry your brain?
33:39You're trying to blackmail
33:40a lawyer with this?
33:42You think I'm joking?
33:44If I hand over evidence
33:45tying Chloe
33:46to your authorization
33:47as the primary beneficiary,
33:49she'll be suspended
33:49and investigated immediately.
33:51The Vostok you just stabilized
33:52will collapse in seconds!
33:54Luther Reed,
33:55as a lawyer,
33:55let me remind you,
33:56that argument
33:57wouldn't last ten minutes
33:58under real legal scrutiny.
33:59Chloe is clean.
34:00And you,
34:01no matter how hard
34:02you squirm
34:03are about to lose
34:03your freedom for good,
34:04get the fuck out.
34:11My client has
34:12an excellent public reputation.
34:14I'm sorry,
34:15circumstances have changed.
34:17One hour ago,
34:18the FBI received
34:19a new anonymous tip,
34:20alleging that Mr. Blake
34:21used this fund operation
34:23for cross-border
34:24money laundering
34:24and that the money trail
34:26involves sensitive
34:27offshore accounts.
34:29The case has been elevated
34:30to a major financial crime.
34:32Given Mr. Blake's
34:33overseas assets
34:34and connections,
34:35he presents
34:35a significant risk.
34:36The bail request
34:38is disnied on the spot.
34:53Don't take off the necklace.
34:58Mr. Blake,
34:59please come with us.
35:07Damon Blake!
35:11Wait for me.
35:23Mrs. Voss,
35:25where are we going now?
35:26Back to the company.
35:28But Mr. Blake,
35:29Damon will be fine.
35:31If he dared to put himself
35:32on the line,
35:33he must have a backup plan.
35:35Now it's my turn.
35:37Damon,
35:38don't worry.
35:39I will make everyone
35:40who hurt you pay.
35:48ma'am,
35:48I took the pictures
35:53of the injuries
35:53you told me to document.
35:55Does your problem
35:55still stand?
35:56If you photographed everything,
35:57store it safely.
35:59Wait for my instructions.
35:59Do not act on your own.
36:02Luther Reed,
36:03the crazier you get,
36:04the faster you die.
36:07Chloe Voss!
36:09Damon Blake's been arrested
36:10for massive fraud
36:11and now the SC
36:13has frozen
36:13every last dollar
36:15of Voss's liquid capital.
36:16You have to resign for this.
36:18They're shorting Voss out there.
36:20The stock is about
36:21to hit rock bottom.
36:23Bail being refused
36:24doesn't equal a guilty verdict.
36:26I'm going through
36:26every entry
36:27in that fund account
36:28one by one.
36:29If this hold
36:30was issued
36:31without proper grounds,
36:33pushing through
36:34an immediate sell-off
36:35would be an unforgivable
36:36lead down
36:36to all our investors.
36:38Stop stalling!
36:39Voss won't survive
36:41until the unfreeze date.
36:44Let's go through
36:45this line by line, then.
36:46Surely you wouldn't
36:47want to be accused
36:48of rushing the board
36:49into a panic decision,
36:50would you, Uncle George?
37:01Ma'am, I found it.
37:02It's the original
37:03three-party agreement
37:04signed by George.
37:05He and the August collection
37:06promise that once
37:07you're forced off the board,
37:08he can sell them
37:08part of Voss Corpettans.
37:10That old fuck George,
37:11he promised Chloe
37:13would be removed today.
37:15Why hasn't anything happened?
37:17This is bad.
37:18Luther is back early.
37:21Hide.
37:32Chloe Voss,
37:33you brought this on yourself.
37:35Uncle George promised me
37:36Voss shares
37:36and you will be left
37:38with nothing!
37:46you brought this on yourself.
37:47Damn it.
37:47I need to find a way
37:48to get through this.
37:55Who's under there?
37:56Get out!
38:01Sir, it's me. I was cleaning.
38:05You were hiding in my study? Eave-dropping!
38:09Sir, I wasn't eavesdropping. I saw how exhausted you've been lately, so I made you Jin Shen Tea.
38:16I hid because I was scared.
38:22At least you know your place. Get out.
38:35Sleep tight, you lunatic.
38:39Ladies and gentlemen, since we all agree on removing Mrs. Voss, from this moment on, I will assume the role
38:48of interim CEO and lead the Voss Group out of this crisis.
38:53Before we celebrate, let's all take a look at something.
38:58What is this? Colluding with the Augusty Group to short Voss?
39:02George, you sold our core petants?
39:05Uncle George, is this the bright future you've planned for Voss?
39:09Forgery! This is a complete electronic forgery! Don't be fooled by her! Show us the original, if you have it!
39:15Once Chloe is out and I'm in that chair, I control Voss' core assets. I'll cut you in for 15%.
39:21Deal, Uncle George.
39:24Uncle George, the recording is quite clear, isn't it? I don't think we need the original.
39:28So what if it's real? The board has already voted you out!
39:33This is the founder's clause of the Voss Group. The evidence you've just seen has already been sent to the
39:39Securities and Exchange Commission.
39:40If you insist on installing a suspect of major economic liquidation, and Voss Group will automatic stock option and the
39:46gold will turn into worthless.
39:48George, you treacherous bastard! He's unfit to be CEO! Security, arrest him!
39:54Chloe Voss, I'll kill you!
39:59I, as the actual controller of the Voss Group, hereby announce...
40:03George is relieved of all duties and authorities within the group. Effective immediately.
40:11Mr. George Hale, you are now subject to travel restriction, asset freeze, and immediate suspension pending investigation.
40:17Security, take Mr. George Hale to the isolation review room.
40:19Mr. George!
40:22Mrs. Voss, it's bad. The August Group has gone completely crazy.
40:27They're using the media to blow up that fabricated cross-border money laundering evidence against Attorney Blake.
40:31The prosecution caved under pressure. They've classified it as a first-degree financial felony.
40:35Get the car, I need to see him.
40:37But, visiting hours are long over. I said, get the car.
40:44Luther Reed, due to the testimony of the Voss Group's vice president, your bail has been revoked.
40:49In light of the severe mental disorder medical certificate submitted by your attorney, the prosecution has approved house arrest with
40:55electronic monitoring.
40:59Ha ha ha ha! Mentally ill! Yes, that's right! I'm insane!
41:03Chloe Voss, so long as I never sign those divorce papers, you will be chained to this madman for the
41:09rest of your God for staled life.
41:11Do you think feigning insanity will let you get away with everything?
41:16Luther Reed, you've forgotten. I've seen you at your sharpest, cruelest. Everything you owe me and that child, I'm gonna
41:23take it back from you, bit by bit.
41:32Damon, I've pulled every string I have. I'm going to get you out.
41:39Chloe, don't waste your energy. I'm fine. Don't worry about me.
41:44Morse code. He taught me this.
41:47No. I can't stop worrying. You have to trust me. The capital flow was legal. I deliberately left fake violations
41:56to get arrested.
41:59The evidence is inside my obsidian necklace.
42:05Visiting time is over. Move it. Now.
42:10Don't take off the necklace.
42:16Damon, you put your own life into this trap within a trap. Don't worry. I'll make them pay.
42:25Back to the company.
42:42So that's it. That day in the study cabinet, you used the moment to switch this chip into the necklace.
42:48This was your real Trump keyed.
42:52Not only proof that Damon's funds were completely legal, but also the August Coalition's full black ledger of bribes to
43:01financial regulators
43:02and raiding agency executives over the past few years.
43:06When you go after an enemy, you finish them in one strike.
43:12Who are you?
43:14The person who just emailed you.
43:16You have three hours. First, withdraw every false accusation against Damon Blake.
43:21Second, take your dirty money and immediately stop shorting Voss.
43:24Are you threatening me?
43:25I only care about getting the result I want. Don't force me to escalate this.
43:29Heh. Mrs. Voss, you're very bold for the sake of one man.
43:35Damon, wait for me.
43:44The Augustan group retreated fast. Looks like what you gave them worked.
43:48The external threat is handled. Now it's time to clean out the garbage inside.
44:01Damon Blake? How the hell did you get out? The Augustan group, didn't they?
44:05The innocent have nothing to fear.
44:07Every single one of my operations was legal and above board.
44:11Of course I got out.
44:12We've also gathered all the evidence of your illegal asset transfers.
44:15This is the divorce agreement. We walk away with nothing. Sign it and leave. It's your only way out.
44:21You think I'd sign this? Dream on!
44:22So what if the VP confessed?
44:24So what if George fell? I'm officially diagnosed with severe stress disorder by the prosecution's own doctors.
44:27As long as I don't sign, I am still Chloe Voss's legal husband.
44:30With this diagnosis on my head, I can go to the world and cry.
44:33Tell them the head of Voss is an abusive control freak who drove her husband insane.
44:36What do you think the public will say then? If I make enough noise, Voss' stock will collapse.
44:40You want to get rid of me clean? Dream on, Chloe Voss.
44:42Even if I go to prison, I'll drag you and the whole Voss group down with me.
44:45Luther Reed, you will pay for what you just said.
44:56Ever since you stepped into Chloe's house, everything's gone to hell!
44:59I had her completely under my thumb and now I've got nothing left!
45:03You've been using me, playing me this whole time.
45:09Get your ass over there and grab me a bottle of whiskey!
45:12Fucking move, now!
45:20I lost my kid and there's no goddamn way he's gonna let me walk free.
45:25If that's how it's gonna be, you're gonna have a fucking miserable time too.
45:39This whiskey ends up on him. Fitting. Ain't it? What's his goes right back to the bastard.
45:53Get the hell out of here!
46:08Get the hell out of here!
46:10What the fuck's that on the carpet?
46:21Chloe Voss, they've stuck me under house arrest trapped in this damn villa.
46:25But I can still drag every goddamn news outlet in the whole city crashing down here.
46:34Everyone, I brought you all here because I've been backed into a corner.
46:37My ex-wife, the head of the Voss Empire, is using her massive legal team to crush so-called sick
46:42husbands straight into fucking ground.
46:44I don't blame Chloe.
46:46Fucking power twisted her into something ruthless.
46:48The constant control and verbal abuse these days gave me crippling PTSD.
46:52All those bullshit charges are just the product of her relentless mental torment.
46:57This is my official mental evaluation.
46:59I admit, I'm a wreck right now and every last bit of it's all her fucking doing!
47:03Get the hell away from me, Chloe Voss!
47:05Don't you dare look at me like that!
47:08You fucking deserve it!
47:10Everything you have belongs to me!
47:32Luther Reed, this is exactly what you fucking deserve!
47:46It's over.
47:48I just admitted to poisoning them in front of the whole world.
47:54You drugged the wine.
47:56Admit it.
47:57You and Chloe Voss, Voss planned this whole thing to frame me!
48:00Luther Reed, didn't you beg the whole world to believe you were a fucking lunaturk?
48:13Answer me.
48:14Was it Chloe Voss?
48:15You and her plotted this against me!
48:17Luther Reed, look at you!
48:18You're nothing but a mangy stray dog!
48:21Your precious CEO dreams become the biggest joke in the world!
48:36Luther Reed, you'll never control me again.
48:45You miss your unborn child that badly?
48:48I'll send you straight to join them right now!
48:59You brought this on yourself. All of it.
49:03Chloe Voss knew all along.
49:05So what if she knows?
49:07She will never, ever get rid of me!
49:10It's time to close the night.
49:16I just sent the villa floor plans with real-time GPS tracking into the sheriff's tactical juice.
49:21They're en route now.
49:24Now, let's go!
49:29Come on.
49:30Sheriff's department!
49:31Hands on your heads!
49:32Get down to the ground!
49:57That brainless idiot Ivy Lynn tried to set me up.
50:00And now of all people, she's my fucking saving grace.
50:03Exactly. I've already submitted the formal report to the court.
50:06We're claiming that your domestic violence and that meltdown on livestream were just irrational outbursts when you weren't in your
50:09right mind.
50:10If the psych eval finds you were mentally incompetent to stand trial back then, we can force the court to
50:13drop all charges.
50:15Chloe Voss pulled off this whole elaborate scheme, went to all this trouble, and she still can't touch me.
50:27Chloe Voss, aren't you just disappointed?
50:30The law has ruled I'm not criminally responsible. You can't put me behind bars.
50:34Is that right? You actually believe this will save you, honey? Or did you conveniently forget?
50:41Once that forensic evaluation labels you a mentally incompetent adult as your only legal spouse, I get full automatic medical
50:48guardianship over you.
50:50What do you mean?
50:50This maximum security psychiatric ward is your hand-picked permanent residence for the rest of your natural life.
50:56You will never set foot outside these walls without my signature.
51:01Enjoy your treatment, Mr. Reed.
51:04Let me out! I'm not crazy!
51:05Mrs. Voss, your husband is presenting with not only severe violent tendons, but also profound persecutory delusions.
51:11Per hospital protocol, we are required to initiate a therapeutic intervention immediately.
51:15Doctor, I'll agree to anything as long as it helps him get better.
51:18As your husband's primary guardian, you could just sign this consent form right here.
51:22Dr. Young, I'm being admitted.
51:27Let go of me! You quicks! Where's Chloe Voss? Tell her to get in here!
51:40Just take it easy and recover here. It won't be long before you completely fall apart.
51:47Follow my lead, and she'll crumble completely before long.
51:51Once that happens, everything belonging to the Voss family will be ours.
51:55What are you doing to me?
51:57You brought this on yourself. You deserve every bit of it.
52:00Don't move! Hold him down!
52:04Sleep tight, my good husband.
52:21Attorney Blake, I knew Madam would send someone for these belongings sooner or later.
52:26Chloe said you're sharp. I trust you've kept that evidence safe and sound.
52:30Luther reads locked up, but he left a deadly threat.
52:33If I open my mouth about any of this, my son will pay with his life!
52:38Attorney Blake, he's my only son!
52:41I can't take that risk without solid guarantees.
52:45Here are two first-class tickets to Switzerland, plus a sizable trust fund.
52:48This is Chloe's guarantee to you. Turn over what you've got.
52:51My people guarantee your safety and your boys. You're flying on out tonight.
52:56Mr. Blake, the Madam helped my son pay off his debts. I've carried this guilt ever since.
53:02This is what I've been keeping for you.
53:04On that card.
53:06Six months ago, when Luther Reed first gave me the stuff,
53:09I recorded in secret, in case he tried to silence me.
53:18Put it in her milk.
53:19Every single day.
53:21Don't stop until I tell you to.
53:26Mentally sound.
53:28Pre-pedicated harm.
53:30Attempted murder.
53:35Your Honor, the prosecution calls Ms. Ivy Lynn to the stand.
53:46Luther Reed is not insane.
53:48He made me lose my child, and he planned every single thing he did to Chloe.
53:52I recorded him to protect myself.
53:56Do exactly as I tell you, and he'll fall apart soon enough.
54:00Every last asset of the Vos Empire will belong to us.
54:03So once she's locked away in that institution, everything in that house is mine?
54:07Ours.
54:08All you have to do, make sure she drinks this.
54:12You traitor!
54:13You recorded everything in secret!
54:15You're finished!
54:20We have physical evidence.
54:22A handkerchief.
54:24Bank records.
54:25And video of him ordering the nanny.
54:27Slip this into her milk every single day on time.
54:30Do not stop it under any circumstances unless I give the order.
54:33Your Honor, the defendant's mental instability is merely a mask.
54:36He is a cold-blooded, premeditated predator.
54:39Overwhelming evidence of attempted murder and massive commercial fraud leaves no gray area.
54:43Chloe.
54:44Chloe, I'm sorry.
54:46Please.
54:47Five years.
54:49We had five years!
54:50Brothers, don't do this to me.
54:52I can't spend the rest of my life in a cell.
54:55Please withdraw the charges.
54:58You dare invoke our marriage?
55:00The moment you turned on me, you should have known this day would come.
55:07Lutheran Reed, for multiple felonies, this court sentences you to life imprisonment.
55:13No possibility of parole.
55:21Mr. George Hale, you're under arrest for conspiracy to commit embezzlement and commercial fraud.
55:27Don't move.
55:43Go on.
55:45Open it.
55:51You're... really letting me go?
55:53Your debts are cleared.
55:54All of them.
55:54No one can hold anything over you ever again.
55:57I've already submitted your testimony to the authorities.
55:59The court will consider your cooperation.
56:01This is your chance.
56:02Don't waste it.
56:04Thank you, madam.
56:06I used to think freedom was a place.
56:09Somewhere far away from him.
56:11From all of it.
56:12But all I had to do...
56:13was let go of the person I used to be.
56:16She gave me back my life.
56:18I won't waste it.
56:20Goodbye, Luther.
56:26This is the execution order from the Supreme Court and the divorce decree.
56:31Sign it.
56:32I'm not signing a damn thing!
56:33As long as I'm still your husband, Damon Blake can forget about walking through that door!
56:38Husband, you've been inside too long.
56:41The court froze and seized everything.
56:43You're left with nothing.
56:44That's not a negotiation.
56:45I'm not fully liable!
56:46This document is the last dignity the judge is offering you.
56:50Refuse and next week the court will rule unilaterally.
56:53Every humiliating detail of your trial becomes public record.
56:58Sign.
56:59It's your last act as a so-called normal person.
57:01Don't sign and you'll be nothing but a disgraced criminal with nothing to his name.
57:21Chloe, you just have to turn around.
57:24I'm right here.
57:26Do you still remember the day we first met?
57:29I remember it clear as day.
57:31Your 18th birthday dinner.
57:33You in a blue gown.
57:34Out in the garden.
57:36And now?
57:37Think you've had your fill?
57:39I could stare at you my whole life and it still wouldn't be enough.
57:44After all we've come through, it feels like such a long, long dream.
57:49If I'd never overheard their conversation in the walk-in closet that day...
57:53No what-ups.
57:54You're Chloe Voss.
57:56You'd never take it lying down.
57:58You really know me that well.
58:00Ever since your 18th birthday, I've studied you for well over a decade.
58:03And at long last, all that research has paid off.
58:06Chloe, I'll walk every step of the road ahead with you.
58:09Come wind, come rain.
58:11I'll always stand between you and it all.
58:14Damon, thank you for always being there.
58:18Chloe, you made me realize that the one thing in this world truly worth protecting was never wealth.
58:23It was always you.
58:36Everyone else said we have no fault.
58:36I love you.
58:36You
