00:00:00Master Marco had a widow named Ava Jackson and she was carrying his child.
00:00:07I'm gonna bring my daughter-in-law home where she belongs.
00:00:12My brother, I will protect your legacy and I will protect our family.
00:00:18Who are you, really?
00:00:21A mere day she has swingled our family out of millions of dollars.
00:00:26I've wanted Luca for years and then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks.
00:00:31If I can't have him, I'll destroy him.
00:00:35Your life belongs to us.
00:00:38Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.
00:00:43From this moment forward, I swear to you nobody will ever hate me.
00:00:49I guess my brother had good reason to fall for her.
00:00:56Ava, you're so close.
00:01:00Is this a dream?
00:01:02If anyone sees us like this, they'll immediately send us.
00:01:08Ava, I have fallen in love with you.
00:01:10I'm your brother's wife.
00:01:12We didn't do anything wrong, so why are you worried?
00:01:14If you knew I had feelings for your brother, would you hate me?
00:01:18I should never have let you go undercover on that damn business deal.
00:01:36I never even got to say goodbye.
00:01:38Marco, my brother, I will protect your legacy.
00:01:42And I will protect our family.
00:01:50Hey, hey, who are you?
00:01:52Which family do you work for?
00:01:54I just came to drop off the flowers.
00:01:56I didn't mean to retreat.
00:01:57Luca, look at her.
00:01:59She's hardly a threat.
00:02:07For the flowers.
00:02:09And for the interruption.
00:02:11My apologies.
00:02:13Senor Mancini.
00:02:24Mr. Marco had a widow named Ava Jackson.
00:02:27And she was carrying his child.
00:02:31Get the car.
00:02:32Let me bring my daughter-in-law home.
00:02:35Where she belongs.
00:02:43Don't worry, little one.
00:02:45We'll get through this together.
00:02:48Somehow.
00:02:52Well, looky here.
00:02:55Family Jinx is finally six feet under.
00:03:05Derek!
00:03:06Have you lost your mind?
00:03:07What the hell was that?
00:03:08Don't tell me that you're actually planning on keeping that little parasite.
00:03:12This is Marco's baby.
00:03:15This is our child.
00:03:17Of course I'm keeping it.
00:03:19Ever since you got knocked up, you've done nothing to help this family.
00:03:24We've been struggling while you've been out here playing the grieving widow.
00:03:28Give me one good reason why I should get rid of this baby.
00:03:34Because you owe me.
00:03:37This is your fault.
00:03:39I dropped out of college for this family.
00:03:42I took five jobs.
00:03:43What more could you possibly want?
00:03:45You'll never be enough, Ava.
00:03:46You'll owe us to the day you die.
00:03:50Please.
00:03:52Sweetheart.
00:03:53Think of your brother.
00:03:58I'm gonna stomp out that little bastard right now.
00:04:00Send him straight to hell.
00:04:02So he can say hello to his deadbeat dad.
00:04:08Hex!

00:04:27What the hell is going on here?
00:04:28Who the hell are you people?
00:04:29Ava, right?
00:04:31Ava, right?
00:04:33You were here this morning.
00:04:35Enough, Luca.
00:04:37She's hardly up to that.
00:04:41Ma'am?
00:04:42I'm Helena Mancini.
00:04:44Marco's mother.
00:04:48That means I'm your baby's grandmother.
00:04:52The most powerful mafia family in the country.
00:04:57Marco was my oldest.
00:04:59Hex!

00:05:13Plain make-believe?
00:05:14Mancini?
00:05:15Yeah.
00:05:16Seriously?
00:05:17Like, is anybody here actually buying this?
00:05:19Question my identity again,
00:05:20and my men will make sure your other leg looks like your first one.
00:05:25Permanently.
00:05:27What are you doing?
00:05:28Derek!
00:05:29Run!
00:05:30Maybe we should just go.
00:05:33One moment here.
00:05:35Anyone who raises a hand to my daughter-in-law
00:05:38deserves to have their fingers snapped.
00:05:42One by one.
00:05:45One.
00:05:46Come along, Evian.
00:05:47Let's get you home.
00:05:48To your real home.
00:05:49No.
00:05:50No.
00:05:51No.
00:05:52No.
00:05:53No.
00:05:54No.
00:05:55No.
00:05:56No.
00:05:57No.
00:05:58No.
00:05:59No.
00:06:00No.
00:06:01No.
00:06:02No.
00:06:03No.
00:06:04No.
00:06:05No.
00:06:06No.

00:06:29No.
00:06:30No.
00:06:31No.
00:06:32No.
00:06:33No.
00:06:34Your nutritionist, nanny, maternity nurse, each the finest specialist money can acquire.
00:06:38We pledge your absolute dedication to your health and well-being, senor.
00:06:45Your days of working multiple jobs are over, my dear.
00:06:49Ten million dollars is a little spending money.
00:06:52Well, thank you.
00:06:55Well, thank you, but I can't accept this.
00:07:00Thank you, but I can't accept this.
00:07:01I married Marco for love, not for his fortune.
00:07:07Practical and principled, my Marco truly had an eye for quality.
00:07:13There is one more member of the family that you need to properly meet.
00:07:18That would be Luca, Marco's younger brother.
00:07:21The brooding iceberg that you encountered this morning.
00:07:24Well, well, well.
00:07:26It's a flower girl in the cemetery.
00:07:28Luca, come meet Ava, your brother's wife.
00:07:33Please, show her proper.
00:07:38Respect!
00:07:40You walk back into a Mancini household?
00:07:44You're either incredibly stupid or incredibly brave.
00:07:49Luca!
00:07:49Open this door immediately!
00:07:54Everyone around back, now!
00:07:58Who are you, really?
00:08:01I'll be watching your every move, your every breath.
00:08:07So tell me, who are you, really?
00:08:11My brother's dead, and you appear suddenly?
00:08:14Was this your endgame all along?
00:08:17Our fortune?
00:08:18I didn't know Marco's a Mancini.
00:08:20And now?
00:08:21I don't need this.
00:08:22I can walk right out those doors.
00:08:23You can't walk anywhere!
00:08:25She's not going anywhere!
00:08:30And get your hands off of her!
00:08:32She is carrying Marco's child.
00:08:35Oh, is she?
00:08:36How do we even know it is Marco's child?
00:08:38Convenient timing, wouldn't you say?
00:08:40Questioning on you, Marco, don't you dare question my child?
00:08:48That's my girl!
00:08:49Backbone of steel!
00:08:51Are you hurt?
00:08:54Luca!
00:08:55You are too rude!
00:08:56Ava is a good girl!
00:08:58You are falsely accusing her!
00:09:00Come on, sweetie.
00:09:01Mom's going to take you and get some clothes.
00:09:03Pay no attention to this fool.
00:09:05You may be fooling them, but I will find out about you, and I will expose you.
00:09:13These are all the latest European styles.
00:09:32Take your pick.
00:09:33I have plenty to wear.
00:09:35And these are much too expensive.
00:09:37Oh, not to worry.
00:09:39It's all on Luca's card.
00:09:41Treat my dear daughter-in-law well.
00:09:43Tryna be open and honest
00:10:07This weight on my chest, I don't want it
00:10:11I'd hate to be breaking, I promise
00:10:15Cause I owe you the truth that I...
00:10:18Oh, isn't she gorgeous?
00:10:24She's adequate.
00:10:27Always the tough guy act with you.
00:10:32Your eyes tell a different story, my son.
00:10:36Oh, yes.
00:10:37This is just perfect.
00:10:39We will take one of everything in her size.
00:10:44Mom?
00:10:46Mom?
00:10:47That's too generous.
00:10:49Nonsense.
00:10:49Nonsense.
00:10:50We're family now.
00:10:52I am putting Luca's contact info into your phone.
00:10:56Reach out to him.
00:10:58Whatever you need.
00:11:00And don't worry.
00:11:01He's actually quite a softie.
00:11:04Now, shall we continue shopping?
00:11:07Yes.
00:11:11Sir.
00:11:12Yes.
00:11:13Your mother has spent approximately 15 million dollars on Miss Jackson in the last week alone.
00:11:19God.
00:11:20In mere days, she has swooned our family out of millions of dollars.
00:11:24She's clearly not an amateur.
00:11:27She's also been spending a substantial amount since marrying your brother to pay off her brother's debts.
00:11:33I want everything on her.
00:11:35Everything!
00:11:37If she is playing us for fools,
00:11:39then I will personally ensure that she regrets ever hearing the name Mancino.
00:11:51I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:11:52I hate to put extra stress on your shoulders,
00:11:56but we need to discuss the incredible cost of your husband's care
00:12:00and how the bill will be paid.
00:12:03Limited edition is perfect for you.
00:12:10Marco,
00:12:11you just focus on getting better, okay?
00:12:14Don't worry about the bills.
00:12:16I've got it covered.
00:12:22Your brother married Miss Jackson under false pretenses.
00:12:28She worked several jobs to make that money.
00:12:31And when your brother got sick,
00:12:32she worked to pay off his medical bills.
00:12:34And then day and night for his funeral.
00:12:37Did I get her all wrong?
00:12:39Mother is unwell.
00:12:53You need to return home immediately.
00:12:57What's wrong with mom?
00:12:59Is she hurt?
00:13:04Mom?
00:13:04What's going on?
00:13:12Ava,
00:13:13please don't be angry.
00:13:15We just had to get you here.
00:13:22What are you doing?
00:13:23Since you won't help us financially,
00:13:25we had to find another solution.
00:13:27Victor Fang.
00:13:28That old loan shark's willing to give us $80,000
00:13:31just to marry you.
00:13:37Are you insane?
00:13:40I'm pregnant.
00:13:41Your husband's dead, Ava.
00:13:43Why keep his baby?
00:13:45Think about your family.
00:13:46Mr. Fang is waiting.
00:13:47Don't make this harder than it needs to be.
00:13:51You are not selling me off to Victor Fang!
00:13:56If she dies,
00:13:57how will you provide for this child?
00:14:02She's calling someone!
00:14:11Hello?
00:14:12Hello?
00:14:17Ava's in danger.
00:14:18We need to move.
00:14:19Go, go, go!
00:14:37Dad!
00:14:38Dad!
00:14:38You think someone's coming to save you?
00:14:42Dad!
00:14:43Dad!
00:14:43Who dares manhandle my future bride?
00:14:49Mr. Fang!
00:14:50Oh, it's such a pleasure.
00:14:51This is Ava, my sister, who we discussed.
00:14:55Ooh!
00:14:55Two for the price of one, I see.
00:14:57Oh, it's just some dead guy's kit.
00:15:00If you want, I can take care of it right now.
00:15:02We can offer you a discount.
00:15:03I think $60,000 is more than fair.
00:15:05Pennies for somebody of your wealth.
00:15:07Derek, you're sick!
00:15:09I'm your sister.
00:15:10This is your nephew.
00:15:11My son's future is more important to me
00:15:14than that stupid little bastard of yours!
00:15:16Hey, hey!
00:15:17No need to be so rough with such a beautiful lady.
00:15:21Now, dear.
00:15:23Just take this right here
00:15:25and it'll make things easier for everybody.
00:15:28Oh, okay!
00:15:30You're a little feisty, I see.
00:15:34Maybe you just need a little personal attention.
00:15:37Come on.
00:15:38You're good.
00:15:39Get out of my way!
00:16:03I always knew Ava was trouble.
00:16:04Her husband's fairly cold
00:16:05and she already has been out of here.
00:16:08Who the hell do you think you are?
00:16:13I'm looking at Mancini.
00:16:15Mancini, you idiot.
00:16:17You killed me!
00:16:19How did my sister get caught up
00:16:20with the likes of you?
00:16:21Ava is my brother's widow
00:16:23and her baby is his only child.
00:16:26So it's true?
00:16:27Her baby's the heir to the Mancini family?
00:16:31Looks like your wife is pregnant, too.
00:16:34Yes!
00:16:34Yes, it's true!
00:16:35I swear!
00:16:36We didn't know!
00:16:37Please, please!
00:16:38You will be dealt with
00:16:39tenfold
00:16:41what you did to Ava.
00:16:46Get a doctor!
00:16:47Get a doctor!
00:16:47Get a car!
00:16:48And deal with them!
00:16:49Get a car!
00:17:19Mom!
00:17:26Hey!
00:17:28How's Ava?
00:17:29How's the baby?
00:17:30The doctors are examining her now.
00:17:37Doctor, how is she?
00:17:38Mr. Mancini has a severe ankle fracture
00:17:41that it needs immediate surgery.
00:17:42The medication could cause a miscarriage.
00:17:46So we need to have consent
00:17:48before we can proceed.
00:17:49Do it!
00:17:50Whatever it takes!
00:17:51No!
00:17:54Doctor, is there any way
00:17:56to do the surgery without anesthesia?
00:17:58That's not medically advisable.
00:18:00The pain would be too excruciating.
00:18:02This baby is Marco's only child.
00:18:08His only heir.
00:18:09I can't risk losing it.
00:18:11I can handle the pain.
00:18:14Oh, my brave girl.
00:18:16God bless you.
00:18:18You know, I think somebody
00:18:19should be with her
00:18:20during the operation.
00:18:22The pain would be just
00:18:23too intense.
00:18:25I'll stay with her.
00:18:49How'd it go, Doctor?
00:18:51It's a success.
00:18:52You're a real trooper
00:18:54if you don't mind me saying.
00:18:57I guess my brother
00:18:58had good reason to fall for her.
00:19:19Senora Ava, please.
00:19:20Let me help you.
00:19:22Let me help you.
00:19:22Let me help you.
00:19:23Let me help you.
00:19:24Let me help you.
00:19:25Let me help you.
00:19:25Okay, let me help you.
00:19:26Let me help you.
00:19:26I know your stay at the hospital
00:19:33could not have been easy for you.
00:19:35That's why I'm having 30%
00:19:38of Mancini Group shares
00:19:40put into your name.
00:19:41No.
00:19:42Mom, I cannot accept that.
00:19:45We're family.
00:19:48It's what you deserve.
00:19:49Actually, I've been thinking about
00:19:52doing something else.
00:19:54I'd like to go back to work.
00:19:57Work?
00:19:58But, but, you're pregnant.
00:20:00Oh, honey, if you need money,
00:20:01I'll just transfer some into your account.
00:20:03No, no, it's not about money.
00:20:05Marco always said that
00:20:08we should make our own way.
00:20:10And I want our child
00:20:12to know his father
00:20:14and know what he valued.
00:20:18You are as stubborn as he was.
00:20:23Well, you're going to need protection.
00:20:26You'll accompany her.
00:20:27No, no, no, no, no.
00:20:31I can manage on my own.
00:20:36In the morning, 10 a.m.,
00:20:38I'll be at the entrance.
00:20:48You know that I can talk
00:20:49to your manager for you
00:20:50and make sure that they
00:20:51accommodate every need.
00:20:52No need.
00:20:53I don't want
00:20:54any special treatments.
00:20:55But, thank you for that ride.
00:21:00You know, Ava,
00:21:01you do not need
00:21:02to be afraid of me.
00:21:03I can help you
00:21:04whenever you need.
00:21:20I'm still right here.
00:21:23Why is she even back?
00:21:26That pregnant belly
00:21:27ruins the source of static.
00:21:28These pregnant women
00:21:29know exactly what they're doing.
00:21:31Hiding behind maternity protections.
00:21:34We can't legally fire her.
00:21:36Could you reassign her
00:21:37to the warehouse?
00:21:38Maybe move some stock around?
00:21:40And if something happens
00:21:41to her or the baby,
00:21:42you want that liability?
00:21:44We can't fire her,
00:21:46but we certainly can
00:21:47make her life difficult enough
00:21:49that she decides
00:21:50to quit on her own.
00:21:53And that concludes
00:22:12our quarterly revenue projections.
00:22:13Sir, forgive my directness,
00:22:19but are we here
00:22:21because you're concerned
00:22:22about your sister-in-law?
00:22:28Should I have the car
00:22:29brought around
00:22:30for your next meeting?
00:22:32Cancel the meeting?
00:22:33I've been meaning to talk to you.
00:22:39Given your, um, condition,
00:22:42I've been worried about
00:22:43potential liability issues.
00:22:45My pregnancy will not
00:22:46affect my performance.
00:22:48I do not intend to take advantage
00:22:50of company policy.
00:22:51Oh, glad to hear that.
00:22:54Then you won't mind
00:22:55proving your commitment,
00:22:57sell one million dollars
00:22:58worth of merchandise
00:22:59by today
00:23:00and I'll put all
00:23:01of my concerns to rest.
00:23:03I've seen your sales record.
00:23:05I know you can do it.
00:23:06I know you can do it.
00:23:13I know you can do it.
00:23:14I know you can do it.
00:23:14To all the doubters, doubters
00:23:17To those who don't believe
00:23:20This is the hour, hour
00:23:24You see
00:23:26There will only gliders
00:23:28Out of obstacles
00:23:29And step and saw some roadblocks
00:23:31Sleep over the lines
00:23:32They say we won't cross
00:23:34Sir, half an hour until closing and Mrs. Mancini has already surpassed the store's average
00:23:52monthly sales in a single day, but she's still a great deal short of the manager's impossible
00:23:58target. She did make it clear that she doesn't want any special treatment, but I have been
00:24:07neglecting my own wardrobe, and the Rossi family event will require several new suits. Now that
00:24:12you mention it, sir, your formal collection is missing quite a few essential items. And I should
00:24:18do some special shopping, shouldn't I? Sir, may I assist you? Um... Sir! This limit
00:24:28addition silk tie would go perfect with your complexion. Sir, I'd be happy to take your
00:24:32measurements personally. Sir, as store manager, I would be honored to assist you with your
00:24:39needs myself. I'd actually like Miss Jackson to assist me. I hear her taste in men's fashion
00:24:45is exceptional. Shall we begin? Right this way, sir.
00:24:58All right, I just need to take your measurements. Whoa, what are you doing?
00:25:05Can you measure me like this? I just needed you to take the jacket off. Well, we don't have
00:25:12much time. What are you doing? I know. Now, measure me like this.
00:25:27Like this.
00:25:34Mm-hmm.
00:25:39Ava, time is almost up.
00:26:09I did it. I saved my job and I made a new sales record. Thank you.
00:26:22It's no reason to thank me. I'm here to help. Whenever you need it.
00:26:27I hate to do this, but Ava Jackson.
00:26:32You're fired.
00:26:34What? No. I met your target and then some.
00:26:40Oh, that last sale? The one that put you over the top? That was actually mine.
00:26:45You're trying to steal my commission? Well, that won't work because everyone in this store saw me make that sale.
00:26:52I get it. You threaten them into silence. Well, that won't work either. Because the security cameras caught everything.
00:27:04Security cameras?
00:27:07What horrible timing. Unfortunately, the security cameras are down for maintenance today.
00:27:20But fortunately, everyone here saw you destroy thousands of dollars worth of merchandise.
00:27:26You all saw Ava, didn't you? Yeah, we all saw it.
00:27:31So someone should call security. Better yet, call the police.
00:27:43I'm sorry sir, but we're closed for the day. I heard that this store got trashed.
00:27:47I'm going to have to ask you to leave or I'm going to have to call the police.
00:27:50The police work for me.
00:27:53Are you? Luca Mancini?
00:28:17I'm also going to have to ask you Dr.
00:28:19I'm going to have to ask you to.
00:28:22To finish the phone a week start, I have to tap you to.
00:28:24Just wait a minute.
00:28:26I'll take a few minutes to do this.
00:28:29If you have trouble picking arrangements, I will pay if someone's買gy.
00:28:34I will give proof.
00:28:37I'll add some回去.
00:28:40I will buy Mancini for my141, andives come for one more Saipa.
00:28:46Please stop! I admit it! I was wrong!
00:28:52Who really damaged the merchandise in this store?
00:28:54The items that you destroyed are worth over several millions of dollars! That's five years in prison!
00:29:03Hugo, what happened?
00:29:04There's nothing we're talking about. We need to go.
00:29:06And by the way, you're fired!
00:29:08Let's go. I'm on a discount.
00:29:11How dare that woman mess with my family!
00:29:20I will make sure, personally, that she suffers for it!
00:29:24You don't have to worry about that anymore. It's all taken care of, thanks to Luca.
00:29:29The store looked like a tornado hit it.
00:29:31A man who will be serving time in a jail cell. Justice is served.
00:29:36That's my boy.
00:29:38Sweetheart, I would like you to concentrate full-time on your pregnancy right now.
00:29:45All of this work drama can wait until after my grandchild is born safely.
00:29:50Yes, ma'am.
00:29:51I transferred $5 million into your personal account for prenatal care.
00:29:57I am worried about the baby's well-being.
00:30:00Luca, I'd like you to take her to the doctor tomorrow for an exam.
00:30:05No, that's, that's really not necessary.
00:30:12I have those meetings in Europe, so possibly I could have some more substituting-
00:30:16Yeah, and I'm perfectly capable of going by myself.
00:30:20I, uh, I don't want to travel, Luca, with something so routine.
00:30:24It's decided. Cancel whatever meetings you have. I want you to take her. I will not stand for any more incidents.
00:30:34Yes, mother.
00:30:36Oh.
00:30:49Ava Jackson? We're ready for you now.
00:30:51Dad should come too. We encourage partner participation.
00:30:55Oh, no. He's not.
00:31:02Would you prefer that I explain that I'm your dead husband's brother?
00:31:05That might be a bit awkward.
00:31:07Mr. and Mrs. Jackson, please come in when you're ready.
00:31:09Coming.
00:31:10If you could lift your top up slightly and lower your skirt band just a bit, we'll get started.
00:31:30First prenatal checkup together, I'm guessing.
00:31:33The baby looks perfectly healthy. Current length is about three inches with a strong heart rate.
00:31:46Is the baby moving?
00:31:47Yes, indeed.
00:31:50Look there. The little one's making faces.
00:31:55Quite the expressive child already.
00:31:58Dad, don't you want to come take a look?
00:32:10The baby's at 18 weeks, now developing beautifully.
00:32:15For home care, I recommend plenty of rest, nutrient-rich foods, and tactile bonding when possible.
00:32:25Tactile bonding?
00:32:26Yes. It's quite beneficial for fetal development.
00:32:30Come over here and place your hands on her belly.
00:32:33Doctor, is that really appropriate?
00:32:37What's inappropriate about it? This is what husbands do.
00:32:44Okay.
00:32:56I'm sorry tonight. Did I hurt you?
00:32:59No, no. It just feels strange.
00:33:03Like this.
00:33:05Top to bottom.
00:33:06Left to right.
00:33:08Gentle strokes.
00:33:13Got it?
00:33:15Got it.
00:33:16Do this once daily. Five to ten minutes each.
00:33:19You can sit up now.
00:33:29Huh.
00:33:30So, everything good with the baby?
00:33:32Any special instructions I should know about?
00:33:35Nothing.
00:33:36Nothing, no.
00:33:37No.
00:33:38The doctor did say that the baby is developing beautifully, and there's nothing to worry about.
00:33:44Good news then.
00:33:47Before I forget, the Rossi family's daughter is having her birthday celebration next weekend, and we should all attend.
00:33:55The Rossi family?
00:33:57Technically, they're our business rivals, but social niceties must be maintained.
00:34:05And she has had an embarrassing crush on Luca since they were little children.
00:34:10Mom, please.
00:34:12Miss Sofia Rossi has arrived unannounced.
00:34:16She shows up without calling? How gauche.
00:34:20Should we send Eva upstairs?
00:34:21No, no, it's fine. I'm here. We can just...
00:34:23Good evening, Mrs. Mancini.
00:34:29Luca!
00:34:30I came to personally deliver my birthday invitation.
00:34:32Okay.
00:34:36Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:39Luca, who is this woman?
00:34:40Hey, hey, hey. Rossi's family lack of manners ever disappoints me.
00:34:45Luca Mancini, how dare you speak to me like that?
00:34:48Miss Rossi, right? I've heard so much about your family.
00:34:54I'm Eva, Marco's wife. Marco was Luca's brother.
00:35:01Oh, okay. I thought you were carrying Luca's baby. That's good, because we're nice.
00:35:06I came all this way to bring you that, and this is how you welcome me?
00:35:12Don't disappoint me at the party, darling.
00:35:14Wear something sharp.
00:35:17Yes.
00:35:18See if there's any connection between that pregnant woman and Luca.
00:35:31I'm not buying this whole sister-in-law act for one second.
00:35:34You got it.
00:35:35You look so handsome.
00:35:41Well, well, well. It looks like my stubborn son has good taste after all.
00:35:50Luca did an excellent job selecting this gown. It is perfect for you.
00:35:55Luca picked this?
00:36:00I've never been anywhere this fancy before.
00:36:02I might embarrass you guys.
00:36:05Oh, don't even worry about it.
00:36:08You are my pride and joy.
00:36:10Besides, Luca will be with us the whole time, and he'll make sure everything runs smoothly.
00:36:18Luca?
00:36:20What about her shoes? How could you forget something so basic?
00:36:32I'm sorry.
00:36:38Okay.
00:36:39Okay.
00:36:51Okay.
00:36:53Right there.
00:36:56No problem. Just don't want you to fall.
00:37:13Who's that with Mr. Mancini?
00:37:15She's clearly pregnant.
00:37:17Do you think that's Mr. Mancini's baby?
00:37:19I had no idea he was even married.
00:37:21Must be his mistress.
00:37:23Everyone, I would like to introduce Ava Mancini,
00:37:28my eldest son Marco's wife.
00:37:31Marco's wife? She's stunning.
00:37:36This is my birthday party!
00:37:38I'm supposed to be the center of attention,
00:37:40not some pregnant woman!
00:37:44Well, maybe we shouldn't cause a scene here.
00:37:47It's fine. She's almost like this.
00:37:50We didn't mean to steal your spotlight.
00:37:54An apology simply isn't enough.
00:37:56Since you're Luca's sister-in-law,
00:37:58why don't you entertain us all with a performance of some kind?
00:38:02Look! She used to deliver food for a living.
00:38:05Waitress? Retail clerk? Cleaning lady?
00:38:08What could someone with her background possibly perform for this crowd?
00:38:11Ava, how does this piece go again?
00:38:25I'm completely lost here. I've forgotten everything that you've told me.
00:38:29There's no way she could actually play.
00:38:32She's just a nobody from nowhere.
00:38:34He has to be setting her own.
00:38:36Even Miss Mancini is smiling.
00:38:38Just waiting for her to crash and burn.
00:38:41I was just playing for the baby.
00:38:48I think he recognized the music you were playing for us earlier.
00:38:54Well, maybe you should teach me sometime properly.
00:39:11I'd like to play for you both.
00:39:13Because Mom did tell me to look after you, so it's the least that I can do.
00:39:20One, two, and there.
00:39:50I'll leave the kitchen and parlie the co-estee, so she's intensely
00:40:04waiting for help.
00:40:05Well left of the agreed fist to do.
00:40:09They're definitely more than in-laws.
00:40:09Look at the way they play together.
00:40:14If I can't have him, I'll destroy them health.
00:40:20Yeah, I always enjoy these type of events.
00:40:25Me too. That's how it's good.
00:40:27From Miss Rossi. The continents.
00:40:30Cheers.
00:40:35Sir, that drink is almost certainly drugged.
00:40:38Obviously.
00:40:39Is the Rossi family making a move against us?
00:40:41These tensions have been simmering for years.
00:40:44Should we respond preemptively?
00:40:50Do nothing. You just need to focus on protecting Ava.
00:40:54We'll see what they have planned.
00:41:02Darling, you look tired.
00:41:05I don't think all this excitement is good for your condition.
00:41:08Why don't you try to find Luca and let's get you home.
00:41:20Sofía's bedroom.
00:41:36Why is Luca's phone in there?
00:41:39And why am I jealous?
00:41:41I've wanted Luca for years.
00:41:59And then you waltz in and get his attention in weeks?
00:42:02You won't look so innocent when everyone sees you in bed next to your dead husband's brother.
00:42:11This isn't exactly how you wanted it.
00:42:14Not at all.
00:42:15This isn't convincing.
00:42:16Unbutton their clothes.
00:42:25Sal, position them closer together.
00:42:27Make it look more intimate.
00:42:32Perfect.
00:42:34Let's go.
00:42:35Our masterpiece is complete.
00:42:37Now we just have to bring in an audience.
00:42:49I expected much more than just this juvenile prank from my business partner.
00:43:02Evo, wake up.
00:43:07Evo.
00:43:09Evo.
00:43:10Evo.
00:43:17Luca.
00:43:21Oh my God.
00:43:23What happened to us?
00:43:25What's happened to us?
00:43:31This is bad.
00:43:41If anyone sees us like this, they'll immediately assume the worst.
00:43:49Luca, wake up!
00:43:55I'm out.
00:44:01People are coming.
00:44:03You're acting like we had some tour de faire.
00:44:05We didn't do anything wrong, so why are you worrying?
00:44:07I'm your late brother's widow, and I'm carrying his child.
00:44:10If anyone sees us like this, the Mancini family name won't be destroyed.
00:44:15Okay.
00:44:18So, Mancini name is what you're concerned about, is that it?
00:44:22Hey, hey, hey. You haven't answered me.
00:44:28Thank you all so much for coming today to celebrate me, but I do have some rather important information to share with you all.
00:44:37I have just discovered Luca Mancini in a rather compromising position with his brother's pregnant widow.
00:44:47In my bedroom.
00:44:49Can you let go?
00:44:50They're coming.
00:44:51They're coming.
00:44:52They're coming.
00:44:53Wait.
00:44:54Here, I got this.
00:44:55Watch out.
00:44:56Wait, stop.
00:44:57Watch.
00:44:58They're right there.
00:44:59If we walk through that door, we'll walk right into their trap.
00:45:00Okay, then what's your brilliant idea?
00:45:02Yes, ma'am?
00:45:03Um, we...
00:45:04Let's go through the window.
00:45:05We can climb down.
00:45:06Whoa, whoa, whoa, no.
00:45:07I'm afraid of heights.
00:45:08You're what?
00:45:09I'm sorry I just didn't realize the great Luca Mancini had fears like the rest of us.
00:45:16Yeah, you know, that's one of my fears and I don't advertise it, so deal with it.
00:45:22What else do you...
00:45:24Sorry, I just didn't realize the great Luca Mancini had fears like the rest of us.
00:45:31Yeah, you know, that's one of my fears and I don't advertise it, so deal with it.
00:45:36What the hell's do?
00:45:39What are these cheaters you promised to expose?
00:45:43Keep it down, you idiot. You don't want to wake them.
00:45:46I mean, we don't want to alert them to give them a chance to escape.
00:45:50Let's go, let's go, let's go.
00:45:54Okay.
00:45:55Hurry, hurry.
00:45:59No, no, no, no, don't run. We have to catch them in the act first.
00:46:02Are you insane? Your house is on fire.
00:46:05Who cares about the gossip? Better get out of here.
00:46:07No, no, no, no, I'll help everyone leave afterwards, but first let's get a look at them, come on.
00:46:20Oh, hi.
00:46:35What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:46:37I am so sorry, it was an accident, please.
00:46:41Okay?
00:46:42Yeah.
00:46:43The staff prepared everything for you and there's hot water in there.
00:46:51And what about you?
00:46:53We'll just be out here, taking guard for you.
00:46:56Now go on, it's warm.
00:47:00Thanks.
00:47:13Damn it.
00:47:33What is it?
00:47:34Miss Rossi is demanding to see you, sir.
00:47:37She's quite insistent.
00:47:39Okay, let it run.
00:47:44You set off the fire alarms and completely scared away my guests.
00:47:47You ruined my birthday celebration.
00:48:00Hey, you will take full responsibility for what you did.
00:48:03The drugging, the setup, all of it.
00:48:06And if you ever threaten Ava again, directly or indirectly,
00:48:11I will end the Rossi family from this city permanently.
00:48:15You're a monster.
00:48:17That's her in there, isn't it?
00:48:18Ava?
00:48:19Your dead brother's wife?
00:48:21How dare you?
00:48:23Ew, get your hands off of me!
00:48:25Do you know who I am?
00:48:26Do you know who I am?
00:48:42Luca?
00:48:43Luca.
00:48:44It's me, Michael.
00:48:45Ava, you're so close.
00:48:46Is this a dream?
00:48:48Luca.
00:48:49I'm your brother's wife.
00:48:50So, this isn't a dream.
00:48:51I, um...
00:48:52Ava...
00:48:53Luca.
00:48:54I'm your brother's wife.
00:48:55So, this isn't a dream.
00:48:56I, um...
00:48:57Ava...
00:48:58I've had feelings for you for so long.
00:48:59I've tried to keep them a secret, but I, uh...
00:49:01I can't keep them any longer.
00:49:02And now you know my two secrets and my family code.
00:49:04I've tried to keep them a secret.
00:49:06I can't keep them any longer.
00:49:07It's okay.
00:49:08It's okay.
00:49:09It's okay.
00:49:10It's okay.
00:49:11It's okay.
00:49:12It's okay.
00:49:13It's okay.
00:49:14In the case so long, it's okay.
00:49:16I gotta burn you out.
00:49:17It's okay.
00:49:18If you can't...
00:49:19Wait, let me know if I have a risk of this.
00:49:22It's okay.
00:49:23Please don't.
00:49:24You'll...
00:49:25Maybe!
00:49:26code I have to silence the person who discovers my weaknesses oh my god let me go no no but I
00:49:35can't silence you because Ava I have fallen in love with you oh god that's not funny look I've

00:54:53Miss flowers from Mr. Mancini
00:54:56thank you
00:55:10thank you
00:55:44I wonder if he's doing well out there.
00:56:04Hello?
00:56:05Ava?
00:56:06I'm outside at the gate.
00:56:08Security won't let me in.
00:56:14Mom, what are you doing here?
00:56:16I missed you terribly, sweetheart.
00:56:18I just wanted to check on you and the baby.
00:56:25Look, fresh oranges.
00:56:28Just pick today.
00:56:29You need the vitamin C for the baby's development.
00:56:32I'm on a very carefully monitored diet.
00:56:35You wasted a trip.
00:56:40Look, I know that you haven't forgiven me,
00:56:43but you have to understand.
00:56:45Derek and Sarah, I mean, they would have thrown me out on the street
00:56:50if I didn't go along with them.
00:56:52I mean, what choice did I have?
00:56:54That's not rehash the past.
00:56:57Of course.
00:56:59I picked these up for my grandchild.
00:57:02Aren't they precious?
00:57:04That baby that you're carrying is my family, too.
00:57:09I love them so much already.
00:57:12Look, I stood up for you to Derek, and he threw me out.
00:57:17I had absolutely nothing left.
00:57:19This card contains all the money I've saved.
00:57:31It's yours.
00:57:32But you have to promise me that you'll use it for yourself.
00:57:35Not a penny goes to Derek.
00:57:37Okay.
00:57:38I swear it.
00:57:39Not a cent to him.
00:57:41How much money are we talking about?
00:57:43Ten thousand dollars.
00:57:45Ten thousand?
00:57:48That's it.
00:57:50You're carrying the Mancini heir, and all they've given you is ten thousand dollars.
00:57:55That is my personal savings.
00:57:58I haven't asked the Mancini's for a cent.
00:58:00Okay, this is completely unacceptable.
00:58:04Everyone in this city knows that the Mancini's are loaded beyond belief.
00:58:09Come on.
00:58:10You need to milk this situation for all it's worth.
00:58:18Honey, I'm...
00:58:22I'm only thinking about your future.
00:58:25And your security, I mean...
00:58:27What happens if they throw you out once the baby arrives?
00:58:30I didn't marry into the Mancini family for their fortune.
00:58:34And you mention their money one more time, you'll never see me again.
00:58:39Understand?
00:58:40I understand, sweetheart.
00:58:42Mom won't say another word about it.
00:58:50Ten thousand dollars?
00:58:51That's it?
00:58:52That's pocket change for them!
00:58:54She must be holding down on this.
00:58:58That ungrateful little brat!
00:59:00I tried everything!
00:59:02I couldn't squeeze another penny out of her.
00:59:04She's swimming in Mancini money, and we're here struggling.
00:59:08After what they did to my leg, I should be getting millions!
00:59:11Yes!
00:59:12A few million?
00:59:13It's just the beginning.
00:59:15We've been thinking too small.
00:59:16I have good reason to believe that we have a common enemy.
00:59:31I think we should work together.
00:59:33We should have a couple more questions.
00:59:35We should be happy to have some questions!
00:59:36We should have a couple more questions.
00:59:39I'm going to go back to the next week.
00:59:40Miss Mancini has been sleeping well, sir.
00:59:41She got the prenatal vitamins you sent her, and they effectively reduced her morning sickness.
00:59:45her morning sickness and this morning she ate half a slice of french toast a half portion of
00:59:51scrambled eggs two cherry tomatoes and a glass of milk and after some gentle persuasion from your
00:59:57mother she also had a piece of steak for the iron content what's good to hear that she's eating
01:00:02healthy and then she finally attended the prenatal concert we arranged and afterwards she spoke with
01:00:08one of the pianists about the compositions is it man or woman sir per your instructions they were
