00:03:52you used to be a pianist too once
00:03:56you used to be a pianist too once
00:03:56and a damn good one
00:03:59so
00:04:51Everyone says I'm lucky to marry into a rich family.
00:04:56Bullshit. No one even cares about what I want. I'm invisible. I have to host all of their grand parties,
00:05:03but I'm never introduced to the guests. And no one has even remembered that today is my birthday. Not even
00:05:11Jack.
00:05:19It's time for a change.
00:05:26Dare say even the legendary pianist Ari here would bow down to Sophie.
00:05:30Anna was just a street performer. No comparison to Sophie.
00:05:46Wow. Anna's gorgeous. Jack, you've been hiding her, huh?
00:05:56You wore that slutty dress on purpose, didn't you?
00:05:59I'm just following your orders, Jack. Robert seems to like it.
00:06:03Jack, come on. Anna ruined her hand and lost her career to save you.
00:06:09If it weren't for Jack, she'd be still stuck in that cheap apartment. You should be grateful. That accident actually
00:06:18saved your life. Your poor, lamentable life.
00:06:24Anna, you're disrupting the party. Apologize immediately to everyone.
00:06:29Be careful about your next move. Don't think that just because you saved me I wouldn't consider divorcing you.
00:06:54And you didn't think I might consider divorcing you, Jack? Au revoir.
00:07:15Bye-bye.
00:07:19Six years of a miserable marriage. But from now on, I live only for me.
00:07:33Miss Anna's only been gone a day and this whole place is falling apart.
00:07:38What's that damn marketing proposal I've been working on?
00:07:50You have always forbidden us handling your business paperwork, sir. Miss Anna always handled that.
00:08:07Oh. Clean us up.
00:08:14It's time I did something about this.
00:08:18Freeze all of Anna's supplementary banking cards.
00:08:23Let's see how long she can last without me.
00:08:26I've changed the rules. Clean us up.
00:08:31Where did you get all that money from?
00:08:34Did Jack give you a huge settlement?
00:08:36Don't forget, I used to be a pretty well-known pianist.
00:08:39Jack wouldn't part for a single cent.
00:08:41If you had that the whole time, why did you marry that jerk?
00:08:45And take all that abuse?
00:08:47I was blind. I didn't love. At least I thought that I was. Not anymore.
00:08:54The money that I have may not be enough for a new house, but at least it's enough for a
00:08:59fresh start.
00:09:21You should have called me already.
00:09:48You couldn't have stayed away from me.
00:09:51I'm not going to forgive you that easily.
00:09:56Oh, Jack! What's wrong with you? It's not what you think. I was only going to cover you with a
00:10:03blanket.
00:10:04I'm sorry. I was overreacting.
00:10:08I'll get us some drinks.
00:10:16I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:10:27Piano lessons with Anna. Piano lessons. Piano lessons. Piano lessons?

00:13:19don't worry I'll introduce you to professor McNeil
00:13:21McNeil wow you're pathetic and that outfit is grotesque by the way you think you can buy a spot
00:13:30at the conservatorium you're ridiculous it takes years of practice to do what we do
00:13:37don't let Anna upset you she's just a floozy and Ethan will find out soon enough

00:20:13I live just next door, so if you need anything at all, feel free to reach out.
00:20:18You do?
00:20:27My neighbor.
00:20:47Maybe I misjudged her.
00:20:57Be careful.
00:21:02Seriously?
00:21:04I'm so sorry, I was just trying to make hunch-
00:21:06You're hopeless!
00:21:07You have to learn how to be a better wife!
00:21:11Your hands were made for piano playing.
00:21:15I just came back from a run.
00:21:18And I remembered that your fridge had soda.
00:21:20I've run out in mine.
00:21:23You know, these are a good source of protein.
00:21:25How are you settling in?
00:21:27Very well, thank you.
00:21:32Is there anything I can do for you?
00:21:36I'm fine.
00:21:39I'm fine.
00:21:46I trust you'll be careful with that.
00:21:47The end of the day
00:22:00Somebody call my schudder!
00:22:02Ugh, görüh!
00:22:04Don't!
00:22:07Did you call Anna about my heat stroke?
00:22:10Sir, that wasn't heat stroke.
00:22:13You can lie if you like.
00:22:14Anna's a smart girl, though.
00:22:16She's going to work out
00:22:16that something more sinister was going on.
00:22:19And yes, I called her,
00:22:21but she didn't answer her phone.
00:22:31Sir, sir, sir. Sit.
00:22:43Anna, I knew you still cared about me.
00:22:47I've been thinking about us a lot.
00:22:49And I'm not mad at you anymore.
00:22:51Jack, what are you doing here?
00:22:54We're divorced now.
00:22:56I haven't thought about you in weeks.
00:22:58Get used to it.
00:23:11Anna!
00:23:20So it's taken a bit longer than expected,
00:23:22but there's still hope.
00:23:23With the right surgery,
00:23:25you'll make a full recovery.
00:23:31Thank you so much, Doctor.
00:23:41You've organized this top-tier specialist team for Anna.
00:23:44Why have you kept this information from her?
00:23:47Why?
00:23:49Because affairs of the heart are complicated.
00:23:52We often do things for the ones we truly care about
00:23:54that we wouldn't necessarily do.
00:23:59It's all we do.
00:23:59You've been için to very well.
00:24:03I love you.
00:24:12You've got to very well.
00:24:14I love you, Lord.
00:24:18I love you.
00:24:20We'll just be able to take a big bubble of the heart.
00:24:21I love you.
00:24:21Happy algún year.
00:24:21I love you.
00:24:25I love you.
00:24:25Actually, I love you.
00:25:15I think it might be love.
00:25:27I'll say she's a fabulous job.
00:25:32Who knew this could turn in such a goddamn disaster?
00:25:36She definitely told them to not be amenable.
00:25:40I know it.
00:25:41I know it.
00:25:45She wants to ruin our reputation.
00:25:48It's all right, girl.
00:25:49Hey, excuse me.
00:25:50I haven't finished talking.
00:25:51Hey, sir, our favorite wine is Amstuck.
00:25:54I guess it's an important thing.
00:25:56Miss Ami's to handle the kitchen.
00:25:58It's possible we're going to run out of wine over half a year.
00:26:03So we've got more vegetarians than we thought.
00:26:05We didn't prepare enough dishes.
00:26:07Fuck!
00:26:08Then tell the kitchen to make more food.
00:26:11How difficult can vegetable dishes be?
00:26:13And why do you keep bothering me over every fucking detail?
00:26:17Figure it out!
00:26:25I miss Ami.
00:26:28Cheers.
00:26:29Spice me.
00:26:46Jack!
00:26:53Jack!
00:26:58Fuck you!
00:27:02I'm not going anymore.
00:27:04And I'm gonna make you forget all about Apple.
00:27:12Anna, don't go in there.
00:27:15I mean, what if Jack-
00:27:15Just getting the music sheets I left behind.
00:27:18Professor McNeil gave me this incredibly tight deadline.
00:27:20I can't, I can't miss it.
00:27:24I'll be quick.
00:27:46We knew you'd come back for me.
00:27:52We knew you'd come back for me.
00:27:55Away from you, Jack! We're done!
00:28:04What I have is not enough?
00:28:06You wanted to marry me to this family?
00:28:08Stay here and all this is yours.
00:28:10You're sick.
00:28:12If you really loved me, you would accept my decision to leave you.
00:28:15You're being stalkerish.
00:28:16You consider me a stalker now?
00:28:19I was your husband.
00:28:22What if your hand never heals?
00:28:24Maybe then you'll need me again.
00:28:26Hey!
00:28:29Anna!
00:28:54I still hung up on her.
00:28:56I wish I could let her go.
00:28:57Jack, you're awake.
00:29:01The servants let you in?
00:29:03You don't remember? I never left.
00:29:10You were pretty drunk.
00:29:13You kind of hurt my arms.
00:29:17Did we?
00:29:19I'm sorry.
00:29:22Guess we got a little rough.
00:29:25Well, how about you make it up to me?
00:29:31Take me to a concert?
00:29:38Sure.
00:29:50Anna, you have to look your best tonight.
00:29:52This is definitely a date.
00:29:55Kate, it's not a date.
00:29:56We're just friends.
00:29:58Trust me, I can tell he's into you.
00:30:40If we don't have a country without a country.
00:30:42You're really with Ethan now?
00:30:44The taste is getting worse.
00:30:46Actually, her taste has improved since the divorce.
00:30:52Take me home, Ethan.
00:31:03Ethan, I'm so sorry for dragging you into my pointless emotional mess.
00:31:07No, forget about it, really. I wanted to help.
00:31:15Ethan, do you see us as more than just friends?
00:31:23Sorry, silly question.
00:31:56Why am I getting caught up in this pathetic love drama all over again?
00:32:02This is crazy.
00:32:30To be continued...

00:39:20What's this video supposed to prove, bitch? It could have been edited.
00:39:25Sorry, what?
00:39:27Why don't you play something? Right here, right now.
00:39:31Tomorrow's the competition. I'm not playing anything until then. I'm entitled to more rehearsal time.
00:39:39Ugly scar.
00:39:40Really? You've just noticed that now? I'm used to it, and so is everyone that knows me.
00:39:45Okay. Aren't you scared? You must know that you won't succeed.
00:39:50Scared? What's there to be scared of?
00:39:53I actually got an interview. You got here on a bribe. You're an amateur.
00:39:58Oh, really? How about this, then? The loser drops out of school.
00:40:05You brought this on yourself, Anna. I'm sending you straight to hell, and divorcing my brother was a huge mistake.
00:40:15And challenging me was yours.
00:40:24Honey, just a few more hours, and you'll never have to see that exasperating face again.
00:40:31Professor McNeil couldn't make it backstage herself.
00:40:34She didn't want to cause you any unnecessary trouble.
00:40:44Today, I don't want you to feel any less than perfect.
00:40:49I know that you're embarrassed by your scar, but it doesn't define you.
00:40:55When you perform, I want you to feel free and uninhibited.
00:41:21Don't forget it was Anna who started this whole rivalry with your sister.
00:41:26You need to pick a side.
00:41:29Anna's injury is because of me.
00:41:32The doctor said it's beyond healing.
00:41:35Laura, go easy on her.
00:41:38Let her lose Grace at me.
00:41:40That's not how a fair competition works.
00:41:45Are you insane?
00:41:53Don't worry.
00:41:55I already secured the votes with the judges.
00:42:00She's walked right into my track.
00:42:02Today is going to be your ultimate deal for.
00:42:18As the rules state, the contestants will choose a piece on the list provided by the judges.
00:42:25Wait.
00:42:28Since the stakes are so high, I suggest a change to the format.
00:42:32A classic piano battle.
00:42:33Then, let's ride go.
00:42:36Guess what you want.
00:42:37Good luck.
00:42:45Hello.
00:42:46Let's get started.
00:42:46Good luck.
00:43:03The background.
00:43:30Was that it?
00:43:31I miss going to the art gallery for this?
00:43:50Oh no, Lauren is losing.
00:43:54She's going to get kicked out of the school.
00:44:00Well, Anna, who knew she had it in her?
00:44:04She's even better than before her intro.
00:44:08That makes me want her back even more.
00:44:11She's going to get kicked out of the school.
00:44:15She's going to get kicked out of the school.
00:44:46And the winner is...
00:44:48I protest the result.
00:44:52She's breaking the rules.
00:44:54This duel doesn't count.
00:44:56Improvisation wasn't part of the competition.
00:44:59She's clearly trying to throw her opponent off rhythm.
00:45:02That's a violation.
00:45:03Disqualify her immediately.
00:45:05I disagree.
00:45:06Before Anna started improvising,
00:45:09Lauren had already lost her rhythm.
00:45:11Rules are rules.
00:45:13There's no room for interpretation.
00:45:19Speaking of the rules, Sophie.
00:45:22Well, you're the last person who should be making a statement about that.
00:45:31Lauren bribed the judges.
00:45:33I believe that's the real violation.
00:45:37She should be disqualified.
00:45:39Not Anna.
00:45:41I've decided Anna will be my final protégé.
00:45:49I should have retired long ago.
00:45:51And I trust you'll continue to shine in your musical career.
00:46:18The arts aren't a solitary pursuit.
00:46:22You need to confront your challenges and accept help from those who choose to give it.
00:46:30Don't keep him waiting too long.
00:46:34Anna, despite the fact you tried to ruin my sister's life, I forgive you.
00:46:39Let's leave the past behind us and try again, okay?
00:46:42I love you.
00:46:46Jack, the past is the past.
00:46:48I'll never forget the way you treated me.
00:46:50From the constant belittling to the physical and verbal abuse from both you and your family.
00:46:55The fact that you never appreciated me or my musical accomplishments.
00:47:02I think I actually hate you.
00:47:21Don't think this win means anything, Anna.
00:47:23As long as I have a career, I'll beat you every chance I get.
00:47:27You can count on it.
00:47:32It's time to proclaim my title as Arnold.
00:47:42Is this a bit too much?
00:47:46I'm not used to wearing something this revealing.
00:47:50Anna.
00:47:50Wow.
00:47:51Wow.
00:47:53You look incredible.
00:47:56Don't worry.
00:47:59Tonight,
00:48:02I'm your protector.
00:48:29You had Lauren bride the judges, didn't you?
00:48:32The shares are crashing.
00:48:33Dad, I just wanted to win so badly.
00:48:35I needed to protect our family's honor.
00:48:37Oh, stop it, Sophie.
00:48:38Shareholders only care about results.
00:48:42And you've let me down.
00:48:45From now on, you're gonna cut all ties with Jack and his family.
00:48:48No.
00:48:49Yes, you will.
00:48:51And you'd better win this competition.
00:48:54The legacy of this family is not going to be tarnished any further.
00:49:09Did you use Professor McNeil's name to get me here?
00:49:12I knew this was the only way to get you to coma.
00:49:15Anna.
00:49:17Sophie's family has immense power.
00:49:20This is beyond your creative ability.
00:49:23Listen to me.
00:49:25Let this competition go.
00:49:27I...
00:49:29I can arrange a concert tour.
00:49:31An album.
00:49:39Miss Sophie,
00:49:41your arias technique is unparalleled.
00:49:47It's...
00:49:48impossible to replicate.
00:49:52Does Anna really think this is a battle of skills?
00:49:55I mean, the rules mean nothing in the face of my family's power.
00:49:58Doesn't she realize I am the one who controls this game?
00:50:06Jack, you don't control me anymore.
00:50:09I am not your property.
00:50:10I never was.
00:50:17Let's talk about the sponsorship.
00:50:19Here's your choice.
00:50:21Either you revoke Anna's application,
00:50:23or my family will withdraw their financial support.
00:50:32The Luna family is fully backing this competition.
00:50:35We've secured a panel of top tier pianists in order to make sure the judging is fair.
00:50:43Luna's terms are way more reasonable.
00:50:45No one here disagrees, am I right?
00:50:48You can't be serious!
00:50:50Yes!
00:50:57Mr. Luna is incredible.
00:50:59The Luna family's generous contribution will really help Anna.
00:51:08So Ethan's from a wealthy family too?
00:51:10And he kept it from me!
00:51:15Why?
00:51:16Am I in some rich boy's game again?
00:51:19Always being looked down upon, living pitifully like an invisible person in that kind of family?
00:51:25No!
00:51:26I'll never go back to that life again!
00:51:34No matter how hard she tries, poor thing, she'll never truly fit in with our family.
00:51:45Andy's my cheater too.
00:51:47This is a catastrophe!
00:51:55Sir, I can't wait to see Miss Anna's face. She'll be so overwhelmed.
00:52:03Anna?
00:52:07Anna?
00:52:23What is happening?
00:52:24Any update?
00:52:24Sir, we can't find any record of Miss Anna.
00:52:26She must still be somewhere in the city.
00:52:42We've got her.
00:52:43Anna, what is happening?
00:53:15Anna.
00:53:16Your emotions are off.
00:53:18Again.
00:53:29It's worse than the last time.
00:53:44Anna!
00:53:44Control the tempo!
00:54:01Your mind is scattered.
00:54:04How do you expect to play perfectly when your heart is not in it?
00:54:09I don't want to do it anymore.
00:54:11I'm scared.
00:54:24Go home, Mr. Luna.
00:54:26I don't know.
00:54:30We shouldn't see each other again.
00:54:35I didn't mean to hide my family from you.
00:54:38I moved away at a young age to follow my passion and not the Luna agenda.
00:54:44I didn't think it had anything to do with who I am or us.
00:54:49I wanted you to fall in love with me for who I am, not who my family is.
00:54:56I can't go back to those days of being hurt and look down upon.
00:55:01I just want you to leave me alone with my piano.
00:55:05Being born into wealth wasn't something that I could choose.
00:55:11I'm not Jack, Anna.
00:55:13I'm not Jack.
00:55:15I'm Patrick's late.
00:55:17I thought he said, I can't go back.
00:55:27I'm not Jack.
00:55:30I'm not Jack.
00:55:31I'm not Jack.
00:55:33I'm not Jack.
00:55:42The Luna family looks even more fierce than Jack's.
00:55:49I'm certainly not going to be a favourite of Ethan's mother.
00:55:53Welcome sweetheart.
00:55:55We've so eagerly been waiting to meet you.
00:56:04I knew it.
00:56:06This family is just being polite.
00:56:08They don't want their son to be with a girl like me.
00:56:30Anna, we've cut all ties with our long-term business partners.
00:56:34The Brown family?
00:56:37They were never our kind of people.
00:56:43Darling, you must try one of these.
00:56:45Ethan said that you love them.
00:56:55How are you and Ethan?
00:56:57Are you well?
00:56:59Oh, we're, um, Ethan and I, we're, um, our relationship isn't what you think.
00:57:07We're just friends.
00:57:09Oh, Anna, you must understand, with a womanizer like my son, he has to settle down sometime.
00:57:20Anna, come with me.
00:57:22I want to show you something.
00:57:50you cannot pretend with me because it's not a person so this woman is just likeolt visa.
00:57:57Ethan, that was you?
00:58:01Anna, your music inspired Ethan when he was suffering from depression.
00:58:05No matter what happens between you two, you will always be part of my family.
00:58:13Such a short-sighted family.
00:58:15How could they let a beautiful gem like you go unnoticed for so long?
00:58:20Promise me that you will never let family drama hold you back.
00:58:24You have so much talent.
00:58:27Don't waste it. Promise me you deserve more.
00:58:38The Luna family just had a press conference.
00:58:41They're cutting ties.
00:58:43Our partners are pulling out and the funding is about to dry out.
00:58:52Damn that, Anna.
00:58:53How dare she seduce a man to get what she wants?
00:58:56Again!
00:58:57Jack, you're lucky to be rid of her.
00:58:59She's nothing but a goddamn whore.
00:59:03This is on you.
00:59:04You all pushed her away.
00:59:06Now get out!
00:59:08All of you!
00:59:25Here.
00:59:26This is all my savings.
00:59:29I want you to have it.
00:59:31I don't have much, but I want to contribute.
01:00:02Here, what is it?
01:00:04She's nothing but a trade-in.
01:00:04She looks whatever she wants to do with me.
01:00:04Okay, what?
01:00:24Jack's favorite coffee, Colombian single origin.
01:00:30The grind should be medium fine, with a water to coffee ratio of 1.15.
01:00:50Brewed at 197 degrees Fahrenheit.
01:00:54For spring and fall business dinners, he prefers silk ties with subtle patterns.
01:01:04For summer outdoor events, a simple cotton twill tie works well with casual suits.
01:01:19What have I done?
01:01:22How could I have been so blind?
01:01:27So took over granted.
01:01:49I don't care how you do it, but you need to spread a rumor that Anna hired a bunch of
01:01:53trolls to attack me online.
01:01:54I mean it. We're gonna make her drop out of this competition. You'll see.
01:02:03What the hell's going on with all this online drama?
01:02:05You need to control the online narrative.
01:02:07Oh, we've tried, but the Lunar family is shielding Anna.
01:02:11Every move we make is being blocked.
01:02:14Now, you created this mess. You fix it.
01:02:18Fix it!
01:02:24Anna ruined your sister's career. Why are you still defending her?
01:02:29No, this whole mess started with Lauren.
01:02:32But it weren't for you and her pushing her.
01:02:34You ungrateful idiot. I dropped everything to help you. I risked my entire career to help your dumb sister.
01:02:42I thought eventually you might appreciate me.
01:02:46Sophie, I do. I appreciate what you've done for me.
01:02:51Jack, help me. Just this once. Use the brown family resources and get those negative comments removed.
01:02:58Sophie, how did you get so selfish? Anna never asked for anything in return.
01:03:06She just gave and gave and we pushed her away.
01:03:10And we won't help you because Anna suffered enough.
01:03:17Besides, the brown family's done. About to be banquered.
01:03:25Just forget about your precious Anna. She means nothing to us.
01:03:31I can't lose.
01:03:44Anna, I need a weird answer. Do you see a future for us?
01:03:54If I feel fireworks, I'm yours.
01:04:07If I feel fireworks, I'm yours.
01:04:30Anna really gave in that easily?
01:04:34Maybe it was destiny. I planned the fireworks in advance.
01:04:38You wouldn't believe it, but in that moment, I felt like the luckiest man in the world.
01:04:43What a coincidence. Fireworks will melt a girl's heart every time.
01:04:49What about the brown family? How are you planning to deal with them?
01:04:54They haven't paid for what they did. Yet.
01:04:58But I think now it's time they do.
01:05:04I'm in hell. Hey.
01:05:11No, that was Mom's.
01:05:17Sophie's so kind. If I ask her help, there's no way she'll say no.
01:05:33Sophie, please. I want to work for Professor McNeil.
01:05:36You promised I'd be the best penis in the family.
01:05:43One, two, three.
01:05:49Yeah.
01:05:55Even if you were some kind of genius, your reputation's already ruined.
01:06:00Sophie, we used to be best friends.
01:06:01Please help the brown family. We just want a small favor.
01:06:06You two are such self-seeking leeches.
01:06:08Get out of my house.
01:06:10Fuck you!
01:06:11Oh! Fuck you!
01:06:13Fuck you!
01:06:14Fuck you!
01:06:15Fuck you!
01:06:16Get out of my house!
01:06:19Get out of my house!
01:06:21Get out of my house!
01:06:22Get out of my house!
01:06:26Get out of my house!
01:06:36Get out of my house!
01:06:37Why is it so cold?
01:06:38The servants are gone.
01:06:40What?
01:06:45I realized that Sophie used me as a pawn to get to Jack.
01:06:52How could I be so stupid, Mom?
01:06:55I miss Anna.
01:06:56Oh.
01:06:59Really?
01:07:09Your rhythm is perfect.
01:07:10A little too perfect, actually.
01:07:12I think you can afford to relax.
01:07:14I think if you find the emotion in the piece, you'll connect to it a lot more.
01:07:18The penis touches me.
01:07:23If Anna were here, things wouldn't have went so wrong.
01:07:27There was a time our family almost went bankrupt.
01:07:30And she was there for us.
01:07:32She has always been there for us.
01:07:35Why did I trust that bitch, Sophie?
01:07:40I hate to admit it, but I miss Anna, too.
01:07:46Hey.
01:07:47I've already called the doctor.
01:07:49Don't worry.
01:07:51Your blood pressure results are completely normal.
01:07:53Oh.
01:07:54Thank you, dear.
01:08:00Oh.
01:08:05We've got to get it back.
01:08:19Anna.
01:08:20I didn't know all the things that Sophie did to hurt you.
01:08:23I'm sorry.
01:08:25But I was a victim, too.
01:08:27Our marriage was destroyed.
01:08:30Jack, you can't blame Sophie for everything.
01:08:32We don't really share the same values in life.
01:08:35You've always put me second to your business.
01:08:37You've never truly appreciated me.
01:08:39You're the reason we got divorced.
01:08:41Well, don't think Ethan is a saint.
01:08:43He's a Luna.
01:08:44He's put the Brown family on the verge of bankruptcy.
01:08:48Open your eyes, Anna.
01:08:51He doesn't really love you.
01:08:53Stop it.
01:08:54You need to start taking responsibility for your own failings.
01:08:57Fine.
01:09:00Even if I go bankrupt, I'll fight to get you back in my life.
01:09:03Leave me alone, Jack.
01:09:05Do I need to get a restraining order?
01:09:20Is what Jack said true?
01:09:22Are you really bankrupting their business?
01:09:25I'm going to tear down the privileges that they are most proud of.
01:09:30Ethan, can you please leave Jack's family to their own fate?
01:09:37You still have feelings for him.
01:09:41Don't you?
01:09:44We were married for six years.
01:09:47Of course there's still going to be some residual feelings there.
01:09:50But it's not what you think.
01:09:52I don't care about him anymore.
01:10:05Be careful.
01:10:06The Luna family has deployed extra security recently.
01:10:53When Chopin was 19, he fell in love with a classmate.
01:10:59His first love.
01:11:01But he was too shy to confess.
01:11:04So he poured all of his emotions into this piece.
01:11:09If ever I was to confess to someone, this is the piece I choose.
01:11:25I've started my new life.
01:11:27I've moved on.
01:11:29People in my past will have to figure out their own lives.
01:11:35I guess I'm just jealous of the past you had with him.
01:11:47I wish I'd known a confident 20-year-old you.
01:11:52Ethan, I'm 26, not 60.
01:11:56Besides, age is just a number.
01:12:02You have my present.
01:12:04And my future.
01:12:05You have your present.
01:12:08I'm of your present.
01:12:08I'm for the extended while I'm just joined.
01:12:19I like my future.
01:12:20You are not.
01:12:20I'm very happy.
01:12:20I'll be happy.
01:12:21You are happy, too.
01:12:23I'm happy.
01:12:24I'm happy.
01:12:26I'm happy.
01:12:28I need your past little bit.
01:12:28You're happy.
01:12:42Professor.
01:12:48How come Anna's competition piece is the same as Sophie's?
01:12:57Sophie is just trying to distract you. She's a snake.
01:13:02Then I'll change my piece. Catch her off guard.
01:13:06But isn't that risky? Time is precious. Switching at the last minute?
01:13:11Professor, please trust me.
01:13:47What's going on? Is this some magic trick arranged by the organizers?
01:13:51What's going on? Is this some magic trick arranged by the organizers?
01:13:56You're not as calm as you pretend. Too bad.
01:13:59Your little tricks won't shake the fact that I'm Arya in everyone's eyes and not you.
01:14:04I don't know what that is.
01:15:43Aria's performance is just dynamic and precise, impossible.
01:15:53How can anyone mimic it so perfectly unless she is Aria?
01:16:04Aria.
01:16:06Aria.
01:16:20Aria.
01:17:03It can't possibly be Aria.
01:17:11Aria cannot be replicated.
01:17:13You must have had someone else play it for you.
01:17:17Oh my god, it's Anna.
01:17:20She's the real Aria.
01:17:25I am Aria, yes.
01:17:28I wrote this piece in the last few months.
01:17:31It's a reflection of my life over the past six years, from being downtrodden, rejected, and betrayed.
01:17:38It was writing that healed me.
01:17:41I hope my music has moved you in the way that I intended.
01:17:44May we all stay true to ourselves and be the masters of our own destinies.
01:18:01You knew Aria's true identity, didn't you?
01:18:05So you took Anna's title, desperate to win her ex-husband's heart?
01:18:09How dare you openly deceive the public?
01:18:13Do you really think your family's influence can shield you?
01:18:16How much clout do you think the Loomis family has?
01:18:26Anna.
01:18:27Please forgive us.
01:18:31I'm ashamed of myself.
01:18:33I wasn't there for you when you needed me.
01:18:36I am responsible for you, Miss.
01:18:41I wasn't asking.
01:18:43It's all my fault.
01:18:45I mistook you a precious gem for something far less.
01:18:49Please, for the sake of our past, give us a chance to make things right.
01:18:55Come back.
01:18:57Anna, I was manipulated into hurting you.
01:19:01If I had trusted you more, now I can see it clearly.
01:19:05You were the one who was always there for us.
01:19:10These hardships have helped me to grow, both mentally and physically.
01:19:15I no longer need your approval or your apology.
01:19:20I wish you well, but we will no longer be in each other's lives.
01:19:40There you are.
01:19:43I've been doing a lot of thinking and...
01:19:48I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:19:54Will you marry me?
01:20:09I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:20:09I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:20:10I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:20:11I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:20:11I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:20:12I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:20:14I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:20:15I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:20:15I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:20:15I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:20:16I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:20:17I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:20:18I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:20:20I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:20:22I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:20:36Anna, are you ready to begin the rest of our lives?
01:21:22I'm ready to begin the rest of our lives.
