00:00We just need to cut back.
00:05Find steady jobs.
00:08It's gonna take time, but we'll get there.
00:11Jobs.
00:12Lisa, by the time we save up, we'll be old and gray.
00:15That's life, Alex.
00:17We work hard, we build, and we survive.
00:20Survive?
00:21You think surviving is enough?
00:23I don't want to just survive.
00:25I want to win.
00:26You always make everything a competition.
00:28Because it is. Look around.
00:31People are getting rich overnight, and we're stuck here scraping by like losers.
00:35We're not losers, Alex.
00:37We have each other.
00:39We have a roof over our heads.
00:42That's more than some people have.
00:45I think I found a way.
00:47What way?
00:48This.
00:49Women are making crazy money doing this.
00:52Fans only.
00:53Some of them don't even show their faces.
00:55Fans only?
00:56You're joking.
00:58You want me to sell myself?
01:00It's not that.
01:01It's just photos.
01:02And I'm not joking.
01:03Look at the numbers.
01:05Some of these girls are pulling in six figures a month.
01:08I'm not doing that, Alex.
01:09I didn't get a college degree to just do that.
01:11Why not?
01:12You've always been beautiful.
01:14You own any room you walk into.
01:16You already post pictures for free.
01:17Why not get paid for it?
01:18Because I have self-respect.
01:20Lisa.
01:21I'm not asking you to do anything crazy.
01:26Just try it.
01:28We're gonna pay off the bills in months.
01:31We could get a house.
01:33A real future.
01:35I don't know.
01:37One step at a time.
01:39If it feels wrong, we stop.
01:42But what if this is our way out?
01:45Just pictures?
01:47That's it?
01:49Just pictures.
02:02Fifteen grand.
02:04In one month.
02:05And this is just the beginning.
02:07Imagine what we could pull in if you did more.
02:09More?
02:10We're already making double what most people make in a month.
02:13And what if we could make triple?
02:21How much for a weekend together?
02:24What?
02:25He's offering 250 grand.
02:28Just for a weekend.
02:30That's a lot of money.
02:35Absolutely not.
02:36I didn't say yes.
02:37You thought about it.
02:38Can you blame me?
02:39That's life-changing money.
02:41I knew this would happen.
02:43First, it's just pictures, and then suddenly it's more, and then-
02:46Lisa, it's just a message.
02:48We can ignore it.
02:50So we're not doing this?
02:52No.
02:53We're not.
03:03We have enough.
03:05We should stop.
03:06While we still can.
03:21What?
03:23That guy messaged again.
03:26And?
03:28He's willing to pay more.
03:30You're considering it?
03:31Not like that.
03:33What if it was just a meeting?
03:36No expectations, no nothing.
03:38Alex, no man pays that much just to say hi.
03:42What if it was just dinner?
03:43A conversation.
03:44And we walk away with enough money to never worry again.
03:47We have enough.
03:48Do we?
03:49Just dinner.
03:50Just dinner.
03:51Just dinner.
03:52Just dinner.
03:56Just dinner.
03:57Just dinner.
03:59Just dinner.
04:01I'm, I'm so sorry.
04:07If you are there...
04:16Look.
04:17Like I smell...
04:18Just dinner.
04:19Let me out this room.
04:20Just dinner.
04:21Let the room...
04:22You can see you.
04:23Lisa?
04:36You're late.
04:40I thought it was just a meeting.
04:48No.
04:50No, Lisa.
04:51I thought...
04:52That's what you wanted.
04:54What did you do?
04:57Everything.
05:00I did it for you.
05:01I never wanted that.
05:05Did you...
05:07Kiss him?
05:12More?
05:14Lisa, what happened to just dinner?
05:16Alex, I thought you knew what this was.
05:19You said it was just business.
05:21You wanted this money.
05:22We needed this money.
05:24I wanted you to go.
05:25To show up.
05:27To flirt.
05:27To get him to pay.
05:28Not...
05:29Not this.
05:30I thought I had to.
05:32That's what he expected.
05:35That's what you expected.
05:36Lisa, do you even hear yourself right now?
05:41Easy money comes at a heavy price, Alex.
05:43What you gain fast, what you gain fast, you may lose even faster.
05:47I can't live with you after this, Lisa.
06:01I can't live with you after this, Lisa.
06:04But I can't live without you either.
06:09I'm so sorry, Alex.
06:10We messed up.
06:14We lost ourselves.
06:22The money.
06:25I thought it was worth it.
06:27I know.
06:30I love you, Lisa.
06:31I love you, too.
06:33Are you hiding something?
06:49No.
06:51Just tired.
07:00Let's do it again tomorrow, same price.
07:03Lisa, what is this?
07:05It's nothing.
07:06Show me.
07:08Lisa, you're still selling.
07:16It's not like before.
07:19I'm not meeting anyone.
07:20I swear.
07:21Oh great.
07:22So now you're just selling to your co-workers.
07:25You said you'd stop.
07:28I tried.
07:30I really did.
07:31But Alex, the money, it's so easy.
07:38I don't know how to stop.
07:40Then I'll help you.
07:42We stopped this.
07:47Together.
07:48For real this time.
07:50And you'll stay?
07:51I love you, Lisa.
07:52I'm not leaving.
07:53I love you, Lisa.
07:55I'm not leaving.
08:00I love you, Lisa.
08:10I love you.
08:11I love you, Lisa.
08:16Lisa I'm pregnant you're it's it's mine right I don't know Lisa I stayed through
08:38everything I forgave you I fought for us I know I know you did and now I might be
08:43raising another man's kid you said you wouldn't leave me I meant what I said no
08:55matter what we do this together easy money comes at a heavy price what you
09:05gain fast you may lose even faster we all want shortcuts we all want the easy
09:10way out every choice comes with consequences sometimes what seems like
09:14the fastest way to success is actually the fastest way to losing everything Alex
09:18thought money would solve his problems but it almost cost him his marriage Lisa
09:23thought she was doing what was best but in the end she nearly lost herself how
09:27many times have we tried to take the easy route maybe lying to avoid trouble
09:31cheating to get ahead or making a choice we knew deep down wasn't right at first
09:35it seems harmless until the regret sets in real success isn't about quick money
09:40or easy wins it's about patience honesty and working hard for what truly matters
09:45because in the end money comes and goes but love trust and integrity those are
09:50priceless
