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...
00:04:46Sure, 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.
00:06:20Jeez, I get it.
00:06:23Could have just asked me to pinky promise.
00:06:26I take those very seriously.
00:06:27All right.
00:06:29Let'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.
00:06:48I'm sorry.
00:06:50What?
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.
00:07:05After 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.
00:07:31And 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.
00:08:01We would just be settling ours up front.
00:08:06I'm sorry.
00:08:07I can't do this.
00:08:08I agreed 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, uh, you are?
00:11:24Oh, I'm, uh, his girlfriend.
00:11:32Oh.
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.
00:12:04I think everyone buys it.
00:12:06Maybe even she wants it.
00:12:07Do Karen 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 her my best shot.
00:12:22Alice?
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.
00:12:43Open 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 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?
00:13:09I told you he shouldn't have come here.
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.
00:13:33We 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?
00:13:43Well, 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.
00:14:06I 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.
00:14:22Hey.
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.
00:14:46You can have your run of the house, but that room is completely off limits.
00:14:52You understand?
00:14:54I do.
00:15:08Helga, help Alice get situated.
00:15:10I have to make a phone call.
00:15:10Of course, Mr. Maslow.
00:15:14Thanks for all your help.
00:15:16Of course.
00:15:17Anything for Gideon.
00:15:19You must do a really great job as house manager.
00:15:21I mean, he never wants to leave this place.
00:15:26Gideon is a very complicated and brilliant man.
00:15:30I'm sure he is.
00:15:32I've stood by him through great joy and great sorrow.
00:15:36That'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.
00:15:47All the time.
00:15:48Keeping 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.
00:16:28You 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.
00:16:50How would you cry?
00:16:55Now at that time, I went through.
00:16:55I think I know.
00:16:55What?
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.
00:20:19Niko's on the up and up.
00:20:35So, Helga told me you went snooping.
00:20:37So, Helga told me you went snooping.
00:20:50Well, it's a folk tale 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.
00:21:06Do 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 going to assume the worst.
00:21:18You are so stubborn.
00:21:21We did not disclose that in the contract before we signed it.
00:21:25Well, 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, 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.
00:21:40She'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.
00:22:59What the...
00:23:01What the...
00:23:01What the...
00:23:26Hey.
00:23:28Hello.
00:23:29Crazy how we live in the same house
00:23:31and 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, try 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,
00:24:14but now my stomach feels all weird.
00:24:17Alice.
00:24:24You think?
00:24:25Do you have a test?
00:24:35What's it say?
00:24:38Negative.
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,
00:24:48create an embryo,
00:24:50and 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.
00:25:04No.
00:25:06Me too.
00:25:18You know,
00:25:20there are other ways I could get pregnant
00:25:22that involves less needles and plastic cups
00:25:26and hospital gowns.
00:25:27Oh, yeah?
00:25:30Birds do it.
00:25:31Bees do it.
00:25:32I mean,
00:25:34why can't we do it?
00:25:39No, Alice.
00:25:40I'm not paying you to have sex with me.
00:25:42I know,
00:25:43but you are paying me to have a child with you,
00:25:45and this could really increase our chances.
00:25:48No, Alice.
00:25:49Sex,
00:25:49it complicates things.
00:25:51Of course it does.
00:25:52When feelings are involved.
00:25:54But we are two business partners with a goal,
00:25:56and 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,
00:26:09but
00:26:10that doesn't mean you shouldn't have any pleasure.
00:26:14And you must find me a little attractive.
00:26:17I mean,
00:26:17you 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?
00:26:53Men have asked me out, yeah.
00:26:54But 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.
00:27:01Look,
00:27:02this 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.
00:27:09How I'm going to pay Nico's next medical bill.
00:27:12For once in my life,
00:27:13I can finally think about what I might want.
00:27:16What I might
00:27:18desire.
00:27:20So you were going to have my baby and you've never had sex before.
00:27:24I know.
00:27:25I'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?
00:27:46I, uh,
00:27:49I 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.
00:28:07The 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,
00:28:33but I'm sure you remember how to do it.
00:28:35In fact,
00:28:35if I remember correctly,
00:28:37Ginny Mills was a virgin and he slept with her.
00:28:39So was I.
00:28:41And we were 16.
00:28:41Let's take it slow.
00:28:43Right?
00:28:44Come on.
00:28:46Let's wine a diner.
00:28:48Ah,
00:28:49Gideon.
00:28:53You're going to have to behave like a gentleman.
00:28:57What will you do?
00:29:07Hey,
00:29:08hey,
00:29:08hey,
00:29:08what are you doing?
00:29:09No,
00:29:10I knew I shouldn't have told you.
00:29:12Just hold on a second.
00:29:13No,
00:29:13I should have known better.
00:29:14It's a mistake.
00:29:15Every time someone finds out,
00:29:16they look at me different.
00:29:17Like,
00:29:18like I'm something fragile.
00:29:19They're afraid of breaking.
00:29:20No,
00:29:20hey,
00:29:21please 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,
00:29:28truthfully,
00:29:29I don't know.
00:29:30I don't know how I feel about it.
00:29:32I mean,
00:29:32it was certainly surprising.
00:29:33Bullshit.
00:29:34Alice,
00:29:36just slow down,
00:29:38okay?
00:29:39Is that fair?
00:29:53I don't think it's such a bad thing about you being a virgin.
00:30:09and 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,
00:30:31it helps to have a full bar next to the living room.
00:30:35So you really never leave?
00:30:38Never.
00:30:38Not even on a drive?
00:30:41Not even on a drive.
00:30:44Wild.
00:30:46There 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?
00:31:03Prove it.
00:31:19Well,
00:31:20I'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.
00:31:28But I'm from Iowa,
00:31:29and we know drinking.
00:31:33Thank you bartender.
00:31:36So what brings you to this bar so late at night?
00:31:42Oh, you know,
00:31:43I was supposed to meet someone here.
00:31:46Was he a good looking guy?
00:31:49Well,
00:31:49he certainly seems to think so.
00:31:52You been working here long?
00:31:54No,
00:31:55I took it over for my father.
00:31:59Yeah?
00:32:00Yeah.
00:32:02I grew up in this house.
00:32:07God,
00:32:07I thought I told you that.
00:32:09No.
00:32:11But you don't really tell me anything.
00:32:15Well,
00:32:15when my parents died,
00:32:16I, um,
00:32:17I 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,
00:32:25I mean,
00:32:25maybe the mattress bed.
00:32:26Oh,
00:32:28very sexy.
00:32:29Oh,
00:32:29I didn't know I was supposed to be sexy.
00:32:32Well,
00:32:33it would certainly help pass the time.
00:32:37Okay.
00:33:18How was that?
00:33:20It didn't pass much time.
00:33:46It didn't pass much time.
00:33:50Are you sure you want this?
00:33:52I'm sure.
00:33:58There's no pressure.
00:33:59Do you have to feel any kind of way?
00:34:00And if it hurts or anything?
00:34:01Yeah.
00:34:02thank you.
00:34:08I'll follow you.
00:34:09All right?
00:34:09You take control.
00:34:10Does that sound okay?
00:34:13I want you to take control.
00:34:33Good morning.
00:34:36Good morning.
00:34:37Oh,
00:34:37hey,
00:34:38good morning.
00:34:39You feeling okay?
00:34:41Yeah.
00:34:43That was
00:34:44good,
00:34:46right?
00:34:48Oh,
00:34:49yeah.
00:34:50It was,
00:34:50it was really good.
00:34:53We could have another drink tonight.
00:34:57I actually forgot to tell you.
00:34:58We're going to have dinner with Karen and Jenny tonight.
00:35:01Dinner?
00:35:04Okay,
00:35:05but why?
00:35:06Well,
00:35:07I mean,
00:35:07we have to seem like a big,
00:35:08happy family.
00:35:09If we're getting divorced in a year,
00:35:11we don't have to appear that happy.
00:35:13Well,
00:35:13no,
00:35:13I mean,
00:35:13we can't have any cracks in our story.
00:35:16I love my brother,
00:35:17but,
00:35:18I mean,
00:35:18he's got a loud mouth.
00:35:19And Jenny will say anything about everything.
00:35:22Well,
00:35:22then we better get our story straight.
00:35:24If we're going to get grilled,
00:35:25we should be on the same page.
00:35:26I'm sure.
00:35:27We could practice.
00:35:29I mean,
00:35:30our brother isn't exactly Columbo,
00:35:32and Jenny and Helga are harmless.
00:35:35Helga's coming?
00:35:36Yeah,
00:35:37she 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.
00:36:01Well,
00:36:01you know what they say?
00:36:02You don't know someone until you see the meat.
00:36:06Hmm.
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.
00:36:16Until I'm full.
00:36:19Can attest to that.
00:36:21So tell us,
00:36:22how did you and Gideon meet?
00:36:24And the questions begin
00:36:25before you even have our appetizers.
00:36:28It'll be another few minutes.
00:36:29What were you saying, Gideon,
00:36:31about how you two met?
00:36:32Well, dear,
00:36:34would you like me to,
00:36:34or 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
00:36:48a few months ago.
00:36:51What's funny about that?
00:36:53The way life works.
00:36:55Sometimes.
00:36:57Well, honey,
00:36:58you forgot the funniest part
00:36:59about how later that night
00:37:01you accidentally tripped me.
00:37:03Oh, then she dropped her champagne glass.
00:37:10What event was it?
00:37:13Hmm?
00:37:14What charity event was it?
00:37:20The one for the opera.
00:37:22I remember this.
00:37:24I literally remember Gideon
00:37:26telling me that he tripped someone.
00:37:28Don't you remember, Kieran?
00:37:30I told you about this.
00:37:31You know,
00:37:33I just don't remember you in our circle.
00:37:37You don't seem like the type.
00:37:42Why?
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,
00:37:50if I thought someone was trying
00:37:51to take advantage of my family.
00:37:53I know you have a lot to protect,
00:37:55and
00:37:57I don't come from a home like this.
00:37:59So you're right.
00:38:00I can't prove to you
00:38:02that I'm not some gold digger.
00:38:04All I can do is promise you
00:38:05that Gideon and I,
00:38:09we know the truth,
00:38:10and
00:38:12we trust each other.
00:38:20You really are a special girl.
00:38:22I had my doubts,
00:38:24of course.
00:38:25I couldn't be sure of your intentions,
00:38:27especially with the way you walked in
00:38:28that first day.
00:38:30Like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
00:38:32You two moved in together so quick,
00:38:34I assumed that Gideon got you pregnant.
00:38:38You can imagine my relief
00:38:40when 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.
00:38:54I was cleaning up the mess
00:38:55you made in your bathroom
00:38:56and
00:38:56didn't know what I was looking at
00:38:58until it was too late.
00:38:59Are you trying to get pregnant?
00:39:00Of course not, Kieran,
00:39:01but accidents happen.
00:39:02We are
00:39:02trying.
00:39:08Gideon,
00:39:09you don't think
00:39:10it'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...
00:39:20It's okay,
00:39:21you can tell if I'm Gideon.
00:39:23I asked him to keep it a surprise,
00:39:25but
00:39:26we're getting married.
00:39:28What?
00:39:32When is this happening?
00:39:35Next week?
00:39:39And you're sure
00:39:40this is something
00:39:40you 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.
00:40:03I told everyone
00:40:04we're getting married.
00:40:05I panicked.
00:40:06They were going to find out
00:40:07sooner or later.
00:40:08You know,
00:40:09now we need to
00:40:10pull together
00:40:10a quick wedding.
00:40:11Sounds easy enough.
00:40:13Oh,
00:40:14we got to get Nico cleared
00:40:15for a couple hours
00:40:16from the hospital.
00:40:17Why?
00:40:19Don't you want
00:40:20your brother there?
00:40:22How would that
00:40:23help the plan?
00:40:25No, I mean,
00:40:27don't you want
00:40:27your brother
00:40:28at the wedding?
00:40:30Now's not a good time.
00:40:32And besides,
00:40:33he'll be there
00:40:34when I get married
00:40:34for real one day.
00:40:38Yeah, no,
00:40:39that's fine.
00:40:41I gotta get
00:40:42prepared.
00:40:45You gotta get a dress.
00:40:54I almost forgot.
00:41:13Need help?
00:41:15I think I got it.
00:41:16Please,
00:41:17let 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
00:41:36there's nothing
00:41:37to be nervous about.
00:41:39I'm happy for you.
00:41:40Both of you.
00:41:42But 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
00:41:51you have a great view.
00:42:08It's bad luck to see each other
00:42:09before 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
00:42:44mom and dad would be
00:42:45to 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
00:42:57way too young.
00:43:00I love that you're here.
00:43:02Okay?
00:43:02But nothing is worth
00:43:03risking 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
00:43:16to sit through
00:43:16the whole ceremony?
00:43:17Oh, yeah.
00:43:18Definitely good enough
00:43:19to have a few drinks later.
00:43:20Let's get you wifed.
00:43:24Do you, Alice,
00:43:26take Gideon
00:43:27to be your lawfully
00:43:27wedded husband,

00:43:33and whatever challenges
00:43:34you may face
00:43:35as long as you both
00:43:36shall live?
00:43:38I do.
00:43:42And do you, Gideon,
00:43:43take Alice
00:43:44to be your lawfully
00:43:45wedded wife,
00:43:46promising to love

00:43:54I do.
00:43:55Would you please
00:43:56exchange rings?
00:44:16by the power vested in me,
00:44:18I now pronounce you
00:44:18husband and wife.
00:44:20You may kiss the bride.
00:44:26Do you, Gideon,
00:44:27I,
00:44:27I,
00:44:27I,
00:44:27I,
00:44:27do not play.
00:44:45Do you,
00:44:45I,
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.
00:45:59No, 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.
00:46:28We'll see.
00:46:28God, I hate when you say stuff like that.
00:46:31I'm just joking.
00:46:32Relax.
00:46:34It'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.
00:46:55I know you will be here the whole time.
00:47:24It 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.
00:47:53He's going to be fine.
00:47:55You want to know how I know?
00:47:58How?
00:48:00Because I think you promise.
00:48:04I take these so seriously.
00:48:20Alice?
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,
00:48:42and 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.
00:48:50I mean, what if there are complications?
00:48:52We don't foresee any complications.
00:48:54I mean, money'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.
00:49:05I don't think he needs to be here any longer.
00:49:17He uses a balance, right?
00:49:18What?
00:49:19Yes, that's what I'm saying.
00:49:22Ouch.
00:49:25Gideon?
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.
00:50:11It's a big house.
00:50:12There are plenty of rooms.
00:50:13No.
00:50:15I'm ready to move on.
00:50:17To start over.
00:50:20Are you ready to tell me about her?
00:50:30Krista.
00:50:31She was quite the artist.
00:50:33Very famous.
00:50:35I'm sure you've heard of her.
00:50:36I'm absolutely sure I haven't.
00:50:41What happened between you two?
00:50:43She lied.
00:50:44She knew I wanted an heir.
00:50:47She had me fall in love with her.
00:50:50All the while knowing that she didn't want to become a mother.
00:50:55Women have always lied.
00:50:58Even 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.
00:51:08My 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 angry.
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.
00:51:43You know, I didn't care what they said anymore.
00:51:46You know, I had given up on love.
00:51:48But I had never given up on an heir.
00:51:51You know, I'm not going to 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.
00:52:40I'm not going to hurt you.
00:52:42I think I'm certain people.
00:54:21Hello?
00:54:22Hello, Mr. Maslow.
00:54:24This is Brenda from Parkside Surrogacy Agency, returning your call.
00:54:27Brenda?
00:54:28That's strange.
00:54:28I didn't call you.
00:54:31Really?
00:54:31I wondered why we never heard from you.
00:54:35We're nearly ready to send you some options.
00:54:39No, I'm very pleased with the one that you referred.
00:54:44Mr. Maslow, we never referred anyone.
00:54:49Wait, what do you mean?
00:54:50I'm working with Alice Gardner.
00:54:52Who's Alice Gardner?
00:55:01Is everything okay?
00:55:04No, I just got off the phone with, uh, Brenda.
00:55:07Parkside Surrogacy.
00:55:09Gideon.
00:55:09I thought you said that I can trust you.
00:55:12God, I almost believed you.
00:55:14All the while, you've been lying to my face.
00:55:17Gideon, just let me explain.
00:55:18No, you are just like the rest of them.
00:55:21You know that you are...
00:55:23You're just like her.
00:55:24Okay, you're right.
00:55:25I'm no different than her.
00:55:26I lied to get close to you, and I was only in it for the money.
00:55:29But somewhere along the way, things changed.
00:55:32Okay, I fell in love with you, Gideon.
00:55:36I'm in love with you.
00:55:38That's what Krista said, too.
00:55:40I don't know what to say to make you believe me.
00:55:42Don't try, because it's not going to work.
00:55:45But I thought that having a contract would finally take the complications out of everything,
00:55:50letting me finally get an heir to my estate.
00:55:53God, you violated it from the start.
00:55:55You don't want an heir, Gideon.
00:55:57You want a child.
00:55:59You want to be a dad and to have a family, and deep down, you know that I don't want
00:56:03to leave when the money is paid.
00:56:05I want to stay, and I want to have a family with you.
00:56:08You're not scared that it's fake.
00:56:11You're scared that it might actually be real this time.
00:56:16I feel sorry for you, Gideon.
00:56:18You have everything in this world, and you're going to end up with nothing.
00:56:41Oh, I didn't know you were here.
00:56:44I was going to make the bed.
00:56:47Looks like you already did.
00:56:50Looks like I already did.
00:56:56I'm sorry, Gideon.
00:56:59I know you were really hoping she would be the one, but I guess she was just another one.
00:57:06It makes me question if I could be of assistance.
00:57:11Not unless you can get me an heir.
00:57:15That's actually exactly what I wanted to talk to you about.
00:57:19The last thing I want to do is overstep.
00:57:23It would be my nightmare to learn that I'd crossed some sort of boundary.
00:57:28But I think Alice has confused you.
00:57:31Somewhere along the way, she got in your head and made it all mushy-gushy.
00:57:35What happened to you, Gideon?
00:57:37You want an heir?
00:57:39Then you need someone you can trust.
00:57:42Someone who you don't need to worry will start feeling feelings or thinking thoughts.
00:57:50Gideon, I've stood by you, unwaveringly, watching these women enter and exit your life.
00:57:58You really want an heir?
00:58:00The Gideon, I know, would put one inside me right now.
00:58:21No.
00:58:23She didn't confuse me.
00:58:26She colored me in.
00:58:30She shaded me into three dimensions, and she tore it all up.
00:58:43It's never simple with you, is it?
00:58:47I guess not.
00:58:50But I won't be making that mistake again.
00:58:54Which mistake is that?
00:58:55Poaching a surrogate for a contract marriage, or trying to impregnate a virgin.
00:59:03Falling in love.
00:59:10Okay.
00:59:12I am going to do something that is very unlike me, and actually give a shit for a second.
00:59:24Gideon, aside from the doctor that delivered you, I have known you longer than anyone on this planet.
00:59:29And once I finally kill that doctor, it'll be just me.
00:59:33Through all the parties, all the success, and all the women, I've never seen you as happy as when you
00:59:41are with Alice.
00:59:45I know she lied to you, she lied to me, from the very beginning, from the absolute onset, everything was
00:59:51built on a lie.
00:59:53But if you're going to trust something,
00:59:57trust your heart.
01:00:00Do you really want to lose her?
01:00:04Is it really worth that?
01:00:12So it was never real?
01:00:15It wasn't.
01:00:17Why didn't you tell me?
01:00:19I didn't think you'd understand.
01:00:21You try to protect me way too much, Alice.
01:00:24That's my job.
01:00:25And you've done a good job.
01:00:27You fixed my broken heart.
01:00:30But now I can do all the things that we dreamed about when we were kids.
01:00:35I don't need a mom.
01:00:37I need a sister.
01:00:40I love you so much.
01:00:43Can I tell you something?
01:00:45Always.
01:00:47I really loved him too.
01:00:53I love you.
01:00:58I love you.
01:01:00I love you.
01:01:13Hi.
01:01:16Hi.
01:01:20Well, I'm going to go to my room.
01:01:23Be nice.
01:01:27I'm sorry for lying to you.
01:01:29No, I'm sorry for giving it all up and wanting to throw it all away.
01:01:35That's not what you do, you know, when you love someone.
01:01:40I love you, Alice.
01:01:45I love you, Gideon.
01:01:47I want to be with you, and I want a family with you.
01:01:50That's what I want. I want you forever.
01:02:04What is that?
01:02:09I felt a bit weird this morning, so I thought I'd check.
01:02:38I felt a bit weird this morning, so I would just tell you that I was there.
01:02:38You
