00:04:47Jack
00:04:48Jack
00:04:49is a wonderful party. Thanks for the invite. You can put this in the cellar.
00:04:55It's rare. Oh, I love shrimp. Anna, would you be a dear and peel one for me?
00:05:03Catherine's ruining my piano hands. Thank you, darling.
00:05:10Didn't you hear what Miss Sophie said? Remember, everything you have today is all
00:05:18thanks to us. Lauren's right. You're underdressed. Don't slip into something nice.
00:05:35Six years of marriage and humiliation for love. I don't recognize you anymore.
00:05:43You used to be a pianist, too, once. And a damn good one.
00:06:20Everyone says I'm lucky to marry into a rich family.
00:06:46Bullshit.
00:06:47No one even cares about what I want.
00:06:50I'm invisible.
00:06:51I have to host all of their grand parties, but I'm never introduced to the guests.
00:06:57And no one has even remembered that today is my birthday.
00:07:02Not even Jack.
00:07:10It's time for a change.
00:07:17I say even the legendary pianist Ari here would bow down to Sophie.
00:07:21Anna was just a street performer.
00:07:23No comparison to Sophie.
00:07:24You wore that slutty dress on purpose, didn't you?
00:07:25I'm just following your orders, Jack.
00:07:26I'm just following your orders, Jack.
00:07:27Robert seems to like it.
00:07:28Jack.
00:07:29Jack.
00:07:30Jack.
00:07:31Jack.
00:07:32Jack.
00:07:33Jack.
00:07:34You've been hiding her, huh?
00:07:35You wore that slutty dress on purpose, didn't you?
00:07:36I'm just following your orders, Jack.
00:07:37Robert seems to like it.
00:07:38Jack.
00:07:39Jack.
00:07:40Come on.
00:07:41Anna ruined our hand and lost her career to save you.
00:07:42If it weren't for Jack, she'd be still stuck in that cheap apartment.
00:07:46You should be grateful.
00:07:47You should be grateful.
00:07:48That accident actually saved your life.
00:07:49Your poor, lamentable life.
00:07:50Anna.
00:07:51I'm just following your orders, Jack.
00:07:52I'm just following your orders, Jack.
00:07:53Robert seems to like it.
00:07:54Jack.
00:07:55Come on.
00:07:56Anna ruined our hand and lost her career to save you.
00:08:01If it weren't for Jack, she'd be still stuck in that cheap apartment.
00:08:05You should be grateful.
00:08:07That accident actually saved your life.
00:08:10Your poor, lamentable life.
00:08:15Anna.
00:08:16You're disrupting the party.
00:08:18Apologize immediately to everyone.
00:08:20Be careful about your next move.
00:08:22Don't think that just because you saved me, I wouldn't consider divorcing you.
00:08:37Jack.
00:08:45And you didn't think I might consider divorcing you, Jack?
00:08:48Au revoir.
00:08:49Bye-bye.
00:09:10Six years of a miserable marriage.
00:09:12But from now on, I live only for me.
00:09:17Miss Anna's only been gone a day, and this whole place is falling apart.
00:09:29Where's that stand lurking for proposal I was working on?
00:09:41You have always forbidden us handling your business paperwork, sir.
00:09:45Miss Anna always handled that.
00:09:46Oh.
00:09:47Clean yourself.
00:09:48It's time I did something about this.
00:09:52Freeze all of Anna's supplementary brachycodes.
00:09:56Let's see how long she can last without me.
00:09:57I've changed the rules.
00:09:58Clean this up.
00:09:59I've changed the rules.
00:10:00Clean this up.
00:10:01Where did you get all that money from?
00:10:02Did Jack give you a huge settlement?
00:10:03Don't forget, I used to be a pretty well-known pianist.
00:10:04Jack wouldn't part for a single cent.
00:10:05If you had that the whole time.
00:10:06If you had that the whole time.
00:10:07And why did you marry that jerk?
00:10:08If you had that the whole time.
00:10:09Why did you marry that jerk?
00:10:10If you had that the whole time.
00:10:11And why did you marry that jerk?
00:10:14If you had that the whole time.
00:10:15If you had that the whole time.
00:10:16And why did you marry that jerk?
00:10:17If you had that the whole time.
00:10:21And take all that.
00:10:22And take all that abuse.
00:10:23I was blind.
00:10:28I didn't do it.
00:10:33And I wasn't alone.
00:10:36If you had that the whole time.
00:10:37If you had that the whole time.
00:10:39If you had that the whole time.
00:10:42And I was insane.
00:10:47If you had that the whole time.
00:10:48I was blind. I didn't love. At least I thought that I was. Not anymore.
00:10:55The money that I have may not be enough for a new house, but at least it's enough for a fresh start.
00:11:18She should have called me already.
00:11:48You couldn't stay away from me. I'm not going to forgive you that easily.
00:11:59Oh, Jack! What's wrong with you? It's not what you think. I was only going to cover you with a blanket.
00:12:07I'm sorry. I was overreacting.
00:12:11I'll get us some drinks.
00:12:18Hi. Piano lessons. Beautiful. Piano lessons with Anna. Piano lessons. Piano lessons.
00:12:39Arya's performance was amazing.
00:12:42That time in Vienna's Golden Hall, her solo performance turned her into a legend.
00:12:48Such a pity. She's been missing for six years.
00:12:52Yeah. I mean, no one really knows what she looks like or her real name. I mean, we've been doing this fan meet every year.
00:13:00Maybe she's here with us now.
00:13:02Sorry.
00:13:03There we go.
00:13:17Piano lessons.
00:13:21I love her.
00:13:23It's fun.
00:13:24Sorry, do I know you?
00:13:41No, I'm sorry.
00:13:44I thought you were someone that I knew.
00:13:47The ink hasn't even dried on your divorce papers with my brother
00:13:51and you're already getting wet for a new toy boy.
00:13:54You're Ethan!
00:13:54Right?
00:13:55Professor McNeil's assistant.
00:13:57We met at my graduation.
00:14:00May I?
00:14:07You're a pianist.
00:14:09Professor McNeil is looking for a musician to help her with her research project
00:14:15and scholarship.
00:14:17Would you be interested in an interview?
00:14:21Wait.
00:14:22I'm a graduate at the conservatory.
00:14:25You should consider me.
00:14:27Professor McNeil is the most accomplished pianist that I know.
00:14:31What do you say?
00:14:34I'd love to.
00:14:35Jack, that ungrateful bitch, Anna, must have seduced some teacher to get her an interview
00:14:49with Professor McNeil.
00:14:51I should be on that list too, even if I have to kill somebody to do it.
00:14:55Wait.
00:15:00I'm sorry.
00:15:00Don't worry.
00:15:11Don't worry. I'll introduce you to Professor McNeil.
00:15:26Wow. You're pathetic. And that outfit is grotesque, by the way.
00:15:32You think you can buy a spot at the conservatorium?
00:15:35You're ridiculous. It takes years of practice to do what we do.
00:15:40Don't let Anna upset you. She's just a floozy. And Ethan will find out soon enough.
00:15:45Besides, Professor McNeil's waiting for us.
00:15:49Anna.
00:15:55Oh. Sorry, ladies. No entry without an inbite.
00:16:00Do you know who I am? I'm calling my father.
00:16:03Could that be Aria? I heard she was coming back to study here.
00:16:06I don't think so. She's a wooden-headed idiot.
00:16:10We have no talent. She'll freeze up there.
00:16:16There's no one here worth considering.
00:16:19Why can't anyone be like her?
00:16:21I once had this student who was incredible, born for music.
00:16:25I don't think I'm asking too much, am I?
00:16:27After her last performance six years ago, she just disappeared. Not a word, not a sign.
00:16:35You're talking about Aria, aren't you?
00:16:39Talent like her only comes around once in a lifetime.
00:16:44I'll never see another talent like that again.
00:16:47Your expectation's way too high.
00:16:49Professor, there's someone here I'd like you to meet.
00:16:57Really?
00:17:10Just like that?
00:17:12You have the audacity to walk in here after what you did?
00:17:17I'm so sorry.
00:17:19You abandoned the piano without a word.
00:17:22You abandoned me without even a thank you.
00:17:27I bet Anna pissed off Professor McNeil.
00:17:31I told you, there's no way she could beat Aria.
00:17:35She's incapable of having a full, happy life.
00:17:38She's just a talentless divorcee, striving to be famous.
00:17:42It's pitfall.
00:17:43It's not that I didn't want to come and see you.
00:17:51And thank you for everything you did for me.
00:17:52It's just that I couldn't.
00:18:08Where have you been for the last six years?
00:18:11Why did you vanish?
00:18:13I got injured and I couldn't see a way forward.
00:18:18I married a man, a billionaire.
00:18:21It was a huge mistake.
00:18:24That's all behind me now.
00:18:27I need to find myself again.
00:18:32Professor Music is all I have left.
00:18:35I can't lose that too.
00:18:39Please help me.
00:18:41Please give me one more chance.
00:18:46All right.
00:18:48You're out of condition.
00:18:51Do you have what it takes to get back?
00:18:53I know a lot of great doctors.
00:19:01We'll make sure we heal your hand.
00:19:03I promise.
00:19:09Sophie has Lauren's back.
00:19:11She's definitely going to get Professor McNeil to take her on as a student.
00:19:14Professor McNeil has decided to not take on any more students.
00:19:34This is all your fault, you malicious bitch.
00:19:38All you care about is yourself and your own miserable dreams.
00:19:43You're my worst nightmare.
00:19:44Oh, don't you dare.
00:19:48Oh, my hand.
00:19:50How could you hurt her on purpose?
00:19:52Lauren's a pianist.
00:19:54Don't you know how important her hand's on?
00:19:56Anna, I know you got scolded by Professor McNeil, but that doesn't mean your whole career's over.
00:20:00Why do you have to be still mean to Lauren?
00:20:02Anna, the artistic world isn't for you anymore.
00:20:06If you beg me now, I might take you for you.
00:20:08Although I'm already having second thoughts.
00:20:10Save your imitation loveliness for someone who cares, Jack.
00:20:13I'm done talking to you.
00:20:15Oh, Anna, don't tell me you've stilled the spelling of your body to get ahead.
00:20:19Some parasites, living off their family's name, think that they can judge real artists.
00:20:27It's laughable.
00:20:32You jealous bastard.
00:20:57Why can't you be happy for Anna at once?
00:20:59Come on, Anna.
00:21:03I'll take you to your accommodation.
00:21:05You're a teaching assistant.
00:21:07Your wages are deplorable.
00:21:09What could you possibly offer Anna?
00:21:15You'll regret this.
00:21:29Are an apartment usually unfurnished?
00:21:33Professor McNeil has arranged all of this for you.
00:21:36She hopes you'll settle in well.
00:21:43I'm so grateful.
00:21:47After you.
00:21:48Sir, is there anything else that we shouldn't provide for Ms. Anna?
00:21:58I've already made the necessary arrangements.
00:22:00Mozart, not a bad way to start.
00:22:13Thank you for everything you've done for me.
00:22:16You're welcome.
00:22:17I forgot to mention, I live just next door, so if you need anything at all, feel free to
00:22:23reach out.
00:22:24You do?
00:22:24My neighbor.
00:22:33My neighbor.
00:22:33Maybe I misjudged her.
00:22:54Be careful.
00:23:08Seriously?
00:23:09I'm so sorry.
00:23:11I was just trying to make...
00:23:11You're hopeless.
00:23:13You have to learn how to be a better wife.
00:23:17Your hands were made for piano playing.
00:23:19I just came back from a run.
00:23:23And I remembered that your fridge had soda.
00:23:26I've run out in mine.
00:23:29You know, these are a good source of protein.
00:23:31How are you settling in?
00:23:33Very well, thank you.
00:23:37Is there anything I can do for you?
00:23:41I'm fine.
00:23:42I trust you'll be careful with that.
00:24:06Sorry, hold on, hold on!
00:24:08Did you call Anna about my heat stroke?
00:24:16Sir, that wasn't heat stroke.
00:24:19You can lie if you like.
00:24:20Anna's a smart girl, though.
00:24:22She's going to work out that something more sinister was going on.
00:24:26And yes, I called her, but she didn't answer her phone.
00:24:28Anna, I knew you still cared about me.
00:24:53I've been thinking about us a lot.
00:24:55And I'm not mad at you anymore.
00:24:56Oh, Jack, what are you doing here?
00:25:01We're divorced now.
00:25:02I haven't thought about you in weeks.
00:25:04Get used to it.
00:25:16Oh!
00:25:17Anna!
00:25:17So it's taken a bit longer than expected, but there's still hope.
00:25:30With the right surgery, you'll make a full recovery.
00:25:37Thank you so much, doctor.
00:25:38You've organised this top-tier specialist team for Anna.
00:25:51Why have you kept this information from her?
00:25:54Why?
00:25:55Because affairs of the heart are complicated.
00:25:58We often do things for the ones we truly care about
00:26:01that we wouldn't necessarily do.
00:26:02You've been asking for the following.
00:26:04I don't know.
00:26:06I've heard this.
00:26:10Mm hmm.
00:26:12Fuck.
00:26:12Okay.
00:26:16Yeah, I'm looking forward to it.
00:26:19Okay.
00:26:20Awesome.
00:26:21Thank you, Dr.
00:26:21Adrian, for sheの learning Yes,
00:26:23what do you do?
00:26:23Oh, my goodness.
00:26:25Sure, please go.
00:26:25My goodness.
00:26:26I'mowing You.
00:26:27I'm gonna go.
00:26:28Oh, God.
00:26:28What am I doing?
00:26:29I'm looking forward to it.
00:26:30God bless you.
00:27:00I think it might be love.
00:27:25Well, Anna, actually, Anna's everything.
00:27:34So she's a fabulous job.
00:27:38Who knew this could turn in such a goddamn disaster?
00:27:43She definitely told them to not be amenable.
00:27:46I know it, I know it!
00:27:50She wants to ruin our reputation.
00:27:54It's all right, girl.
00:27:55Hey, excuse me, I haven't finished talking.
00:27:58Sir, our favorite wine is out of stock.
00:28:00I'm just asking for it.
00:28:02Miss Abbott is dependent on the kitchen.
00:28:04What do we do now?
00:28:06It's possible they're going to run out of wine and have coffee here.
00:28:09So, we've got more vegetarians than we thought.
00:28:11We didn't prepare our dishes either.
00:28:13Fuck!
00:28:14Then tell the kitchen to make more food.
00:28:17How difficult can vegetable dishes be?
00:28:19And why do you keep bothering me over every fucking detail?
00:28:23Figure it out!
00:28:24I miss Anne.
00:28:34Cheers.
00:28:35Spursy.
00:28:36Thanks.
00:28:37I love you.
00:28:39I love you.
00:28:42Jack?
00:28:54Jack?
00:29:00Jack?
00:29:02Come meet me, Anna.
00:29:05Fuck you!
00:29:08I'm not going anywhere.
00:29:10And I'm going to make you forget.
00:29:12It's all about Anna.
00:29:18Anna, don't go in there.
00:29:21I mean, what if Jack...
00:29:22Just getting the music sheets I left behind.
00:29:24Professor McNeil gave me this incredibly tight deadline.
00:29:27I can't... I can't miss it.
00:29:30I'll be quick.
00:29:42We knew you'd come back for me.
00:29:58We knew you'd come back for me.
00:30:00Come back for me.
00:30:02Away from me, Jack. We're done.
00:30:03We're done.
00:30:11What I have is not enough?
00:30:12You wanted to marry me to this family?
00:30:15Stay here and all this is yours.
00:30:16You're sick.
00:30:18If you really loved me, you would accept my decision to leave you.
00:30:22You're being stalkerish.
00:30:23You consider me a stalker now?
00:30:25I was your husband.
00:30:27And what if your hand never heals?
00:30:31Maybe then you'll name me again.
00:30:32Hey!
00:30:36Anna!
00:30:37I still hung up on her.
00:31:03I should get let her go.
00:31:05Jack, you're awake.
00:31:07Did the servants let you in?
00:31:10You don't remember?
00:31:12I never left.
00:31:18You were pretty drunk.
00:31:20You kind of hurt my arms.
00:31:26I'm sorry.
00:31:29Guess we got a little rough.
00:31:32Well, how about you make it up to me?
00:31:38Take me to a concert?
00:31:44Sure.
00:31:57Anna, you have to look your best tonight.
00:32:00This is definitely a date.
00:32:02Kate, it's not a date. We're just friends.
00:32:05Trust me, I can tell these are to you.
00:32:35So, Anna, you really with Ethan now?
00:32:50Your taste is getting worse.
00:32:53Actually, her taste has improved since the divorce.
00:32:59Take me home, Ethan.
00:33:09Ethan, I'm so sorry for dragging you into my pointless emotional mess.
00:33:14No, forget about it, really.
00:33:18I wanted to help.
00:33:22Ethan, do you see us as more than just friends?
00:33:25Ethan, do you see us as more than just friends?
00:33:31Sorry. Silly question.
00:33:32The question?
00:33:36Silly question.
00:33:39…
00:33:42The
00:33:45Why am I getting caught up in this pathetic love drama all over again?
00:34:09This is crazy.
00:34:39I want to enter this year's Global Piano Competition.
00:35:06I think it will help me find the self I once was.
00:35:11And I'll be right there to support you.
00:35:36Your technique is not at its peak yet, but your emotional depth is on point.
00:35:46Seems like your marriage wasn't entirely a waste.
00:35:51Anna, you're going to be my last research student.
00:35:57I'm retiring.
00:35:58Professor, please give me a chance.
00:36:13I really want to be your student.
00:36:15Can't you make room for me too?
00:36:21And what are you doing here?
00:36:26Professor, don't let her fool you.
00:36:29She's not the rich professional housewife anymore.
00:36:32Just a talentless freeload.
00:36:36I'm different.
00:36:37My brother is the chairman of the Brown family.
00:36:41I could bring in steady sponsorship.
00:36:43You're out of line.
00:36:44Scholarships are won by talent.
00:36:46Money's easy to get.
00:36:48You can't buy talent.
00:36:49Professor, please take a breath.
00:36:53Leave.
00:36:54You're insulting the professor.
00:36:56What's all this commotion?
00:37:01As Aria, I will personally vouch for Lauren's talent.
00:37:06Professor McNeil, I hope you'll accept her.
00:37:09Although, if you don't think she's up to your standard,
00:37:11I'm going to have to question your thought processes.
00:37:14How dare you?
00:37:15Your attitude and sense of entitlement is bewildering to me.
00:37:19Please leave my classroom.
00:37:21Professor, it's just adding one more student.
00:37:25Please don't turn her away.
00:37:27Well, I only take the most accomplished students.
00:37:30Well, in that case, let's make it a competition.
00:37:34And I'll take the winner as my final student.
00:37:38Isn't Aria Professor McNeil's ex-student?
00:37:41I bet Lauren will win.
00:37:43Sounds great.
00:37:45We'll see you at the competition.
00:37:48Bye-bye.
00:37:55You're terrible.
00:37:57Ethan!
00:37:58You're unaware, aren't you?
00:38:01I'm Aria.
00:38:02I suggest you stop trying to help Ana.
00:38:04You know with a few words I can have you fired.
00:38:06I'm sure that's true.
00:38:08So you understand the power of Aria then?
00:38:10I can have you fired.
00:38:12I'm sure that's true.
00:38:19So you understand the power of Arya then?
00:38:21Stop helping Anna and I can offer you a much more lucrative position.
00:38:28Stop pretending.
00:38:30Your pathetic little tricks aren't fooling anyone.
00:38:33Don't be so sure.
00:38:40I can't keep relying on others.
00:38:49I have to earn Arya back myself.
00:38:55Anything worth any merit is worth accomplishing on my own.
00:39:02I'll wait for you to confess.
00:39:04Whether you're Arya or not, I'm here for you.
00:39:10Mom, if Jack hadn't divorced her, there's no way Anna would try to compete with me now.
00:39:20We can't let her win.
00:39:22Absolutely not.
00:39:24We need a plan.
00:39:27Anna Brown has the nerve to challenge me.
00:39:30It's incredible to me that she even has the courage to try.
00:39:33She's gonna make a complete fool of herself.
00:39:35It takes years to be able to do what I do.
00:39:37I can't wait to see her fail.
00:39:39Nobody's better than Arya.
00:39:41This school doesn't need students like you.
00:39:51Go get your masters somewhere else.
00:39:52Can someone explain to me what's going on here?
00:40:01Don't play innocent. Arya's exposed you on TV.
00:40:05Aren't you curious?
00:40:06Why the always secretive Arya suddenly exposed herself so publicly?
00:40:08You're just attention seeking.
00:40:09I believe in Anna's integrity.
00:40:10What are you doing here?
00:40:11Why are you still shutting me out?
00:40:12Why are you still shutting me out?
00:40:13Why not call me?
00:40:14I'll handle this.
00:40:15Not everything can be solved with money and power, Jack.
00:40:16Isn't he the CEO of the Brown family?
00:40:17Why are you still shutting me out?
00:40:18Why not call me?
00:40:19I'll handle this.
00:40:20Not everything can be solved with money and power, Jack.
00:40:24Isn't he the CEO of the Brown family?
00:40:25Oh my god.
00:40:26She did use her connections to get ahead.
00:40:27So she's playing both sides now.
00:40:28What about Ethan?
00:40:29It's not fair she gets a chance.
00:40:30You're just attention seeking.
00:40:31You're just attention seeking.
00:40:32I believe in Anna's integrity.
00:40:33What are you doing here?
00:40:34Why are you still shutting me out?
00:40:35Why not call me?
00:40:36I'll handle this.
00:40:37Not everything can be solved with money and power, Jack.
00:40:39Isn't he the CEO of the Brown family?
00:40:41Oh my god.
00:40:42She did use her connections to get ahead.
00:40:45So she's playing both sides now.
00:40:52What about Ethan?
00:40:53It's not fair she gets to go here.
00:41:23What's this video supposed to prove, bitch?
00:41:32It could have been edited.
00:41:34Sorry, what?
00:41:35Why don't you play something?
00:41:38Right here, right now.
00:41:40Tomorrow's the competition.
00:41:42I'm not playing anything until then.
00:41:44I'm entitled to more rehearsal time.
00:41:46Ugly scar.
00:41:49Really?
00:41:50You've just noticed that now.
00:41:51I'm used to it.
00:41:52And so is everyone that knows me.
00:41:55Aren't you scared?
00:41:57You must know that you're going to succeed.
00:41:59Scared?
00:42:00Mm-hmm.
00:42:01What's there to be scared of?
00:42:02I actually got an interview you got here on a bribe.
00:42:05You're an amateur.
00:42:07Oh really?
00:42:08How about this then?
00:42:10The loser drops out of school.
00:42:16You brought this on yourself, Anna.
00:42:18I'm sending you straight to hell.
00:42:20And divorcing my brother was a huge mistake.
00:42:25And challenging me was yours.
00:42:34Honey, just a few more hours and you'll never have to see that exasperating face again.
00:42:41Professor McNeil couldn't make it backstage herself.
00:42:44She didn't want to cause you any unnecessary trouble.
00:42:54Today, I don't want you to feel any less than perfect.
00:43:00I know that you're embarrassed by your scar, but it doesn't define you.
00:43:04When you perform, I want you to feel free and uninhibited.
00:43:10Don't forget it was Anna who started this whole rivalry with your sister.
00:43:36You need to pick a side.
00:43:37Anna's injury is because of me.
00:43:42The doctor said it's beyond healing.
00:43:45Laura, go easy on her.
00:43:48Better lose grace on her.
00:43:50That's not how a fair competition works.
00:43:55Are you insane?
00:44:03Don't worry.
00:44:05I already secured the votes with the judges.
00:44:10She's walked right into my track.
00:44:12Today's going to be her ultimate downfall.
00:44:13As the rules state, the contestants will choose a piece on the list provided by the judges.
00:44:22Wait.
00:44:23Since the stakes are so high, I suggest a change to the format.
00:44:28A classic piano battle.
00:44:29Oh!
00:44:30Oh!
00:44:31Oh!
00:44:33Yeah!
00:44:35Oh!
00:44:37Ah!
00:44:38Ah!
00:44:40Oh!
00:44:41Oh!
00:44:42Oh!
00:44:44Oh!
00:44:45Oh!
00:45:15Was that it?
00:45:42I miss going to the art gallery for this?
00:45:49Oh no, Lauren is losing.
00:46:05She's going to get kicked out of the school.
00:46:11Well, Anna, who knew she had it in her?
00:46:15She's even better than before her intro.
00:46:19That makes me want her back even more.
00:46:23She's going to get kicked out of the school.
00:46:33She's going to get kicked out of the school.
00:46:43And the winner is...
00:46:57I protest the revolt.
00:47:03She's breaking the rules.
00:47:05This duel doesn't count.
00:47:07Improvisation wasn't part of the competition.
00:47:09She's clearly trying to throw her opponent off rhythm.
00:47:12That's a violation.
00:47:13Disqualify her immediately.
00:47:15I disagree.
00:47:17Before Anna started improvising, Lauren had already lost her rhythm.
00:47:22Rules are rules.
00:47:23There's no room for interpretation.
00:47:25RULES!
00:47:30Speaking of the rules, Sophie,
00:47:32well, you're the last person who should be making a statement about that.
00:47:36Lauren bribed the judges.
00:47:44I believe that's the real violation.
00:47:47She should be disqualified.
00:47:49Not Anna.
00:47:51I've decided Anna will be my final protege.
00:48:00I should have retired long ago.
00:48:02And I trust you'll continue to shine in your musical career.
00:48:21The arts aren't a solitary pursuit.
00:48:33You need to confront your challenges and accept help from those who choose to give it.
00:48:41Don't keep him waiting too long.
00:48:44Anna, despite the fact you tried to ruin my sister's life, I forgive you.
00:48:50Let's leave the past behind us and try again, okay?
00:48:53I love you.
00:48:57Jack, the past is the past.
00:48:59I'll never forget the way you treated me.
00:49:01From the constant belittling to the physical and verbal abuse from both you and your family.
00:49:06It's the fact that you never appreciated me or my musical accomplishments.
00:49:13I think I actually hate you.
00:49:20Don't think this win means anything, Anna.
00:49:34As long as I have a career, I'll beat you every chance I get.
00:49:38You can count on it.
00:49:39It's time to reclaim my title as our lord.
00:49:46Is this a bit too much?
00:49:55I'm not used to wearing something this revealing.
00:50:00Anna.
00:50:01Wow.
00:50:02You look incredible.
00:50:03Don't worry.
00:50:04Tonight, I am your protector.
00:50:07It's incredible.
00:50:08Don't worry.
00:50:09Tonight, I am your protector.
00:50:37You had Lauren bribe the judges, didn't you?
00:50:44The shares are crashing.
00:50:45Dad, I just wanted to win so badly.
00:50:47I needed to protect our family's honor.
00:50:48Oh, stop it, Sophie.
00:50:50Shareholders only care about results.
00:50:54And you've let me down.
00:50:57From now on, you're going to cut all ties with Jack and his family.
00:51:00No!
00:51:01Yes, you will.
00:51:02And you'd better win this competition.
00:51:06The legacy of this family is not going to be tarnished any further.
00:51:22Did you use Professor McNeil's name to get me here?
00:51:24I knew this was the only way to get you to come.
00:51:27Anna.
00:51:29Sophie's family has immense power.
00:51:32This is beyond your creative ability.
00:51:35Listen to me.
00:51:37Let this competition go.
00:51:40I...
00:51:41I can arrange a concert tour.
00:51:43An album.
00:51:52Miss Sophie, your Aria's technique is unparalleled.
00:51:58It's impossible to replicate.
00:52:04Does Anna really think this is a battle of skills?
00:52:07I mean, the rules mean nothing in the face of my family's power.
00:52:10Doesn't she realize I am the one who controls this game?
00:52:18Shut up.
00:52:19Jack, you don't control me anymore.
00:52:21I am not your property.
00:52:22I never was.
00:52:29Let's talk about the sponsorship.
00:52:31Here's your choice.
00:52:33Either you revoke Anna's application, or my family will withdraw their financial support.
00:52:38The Luna family is fully backing this competition.
00:52:47We've secured a panel of top tier pianists in order to make sure the judging is fair.
00:52:55Luna's terms are way more reasonable.
00:52:57No one here disagrees, am I right?
00:53:01You can't be serious!
00:53:10Mr. Luna is incredible.
00:53:11The Luna family's generous contribution will really help Anna.
00:53:14So Ethan's from a wealthy family too?
00:53:23And he kept it from me!
00:53:28Why?
00:53:29Am I in some rich boy's game again?
00:53:32Always being looked down upon, living pitifully like an invisible person in that kind of family?
00:53:36No!
00:53:38I'll never go back to that life again!
00:53:47No matter how hard she tries, poor thing!
00:53:51She'll never truly fit in with our family.
00:53:58Andy's my tutor too.
00:54:00This is a catastrophe!
00:54:07Sir, I can't wait to see Miss Anna's face.
00:54:11She'll be so overwhelmed.
00:54:16Anna?
00:54:20Anna?
00:54:36What is happening?
00:54:37Any update?
00:54:38Sir, we can't find any record of Miss Anna.
00:54:39She must still be somewhere in the city.
00:54:55Good guy.
00:54:57Anna, what is happening?
00:55:06Anna?
00:55:30Your emotions are off.
00:55:31Again.
00:55:32It's worse than last time.
00:55:42It's worse than last time.
00:55:57Anna!
00:55:58Control the tempo!
00:56:00Your mind is scattered.
00:56:02How do you expect to play perfectly when your heart is not in it?
00:56:05I don't want to do it anymore.
00:56:07I'm scared.
00:56:08I'm scared.
00:56:09I'm scared.
00:56:10I'm scared.
00:56:11Your mind is scattered. How do you expect to play perfectly when your heart is not in it?
00:56:22I don't want to do anymore. I'm scared.
00:56:26Go home, Mr. Luna. We shouldn't see each other again.
00:56:48I didn't mean to hide my family from you.
00:56:51I moved away at a young age to follow my passion and not the Luna agenda.
00:56:57I didn't think it had anything to do with who I am or us.
00:57:02I wanted you to fall in love with me for who I am, not who my family is.
00:57:08I can't go back to those days of being hurt and look down upon.
00:57:14I just want you to leave me alone with my piano.
00:57:18Being born into wealth wasn't something that I could choose.
00:57:24I'm not Jack, Anna.
00:57:27I'm not Jack, Anna.
00:57:44relacionato.
00:57:46A silver�et STAND-
00:57:51The Luna family looks even more fierce than Jack's.
00:58:03I'm certainly not going to be a favourite of Ethan's mother.
00:58:06Welcome sweetheart.
00:58:08We've so eagerly been waiting to meet you.
00:58:13I knew it.
00:58:19This family is just being polite.
00:58:22They don't want their son to be with a girl like me.
00:58:29Anna, we've cut all ties with our long-term business partners.
00:58:48The Brown family?
00:58:51They were never our kind of people.
00:58:57Darling, you must try one of these.
00:58:59Ethan said that you love them.
00:59:08How are you and Ethan?
00:59:10Are you well?
00:59:11Oh, we're, um, well, Ethan and I, we're, um, our relationship isn't what you think.
00:59:21We're just friends.
00:59:22Oh, Anna, you must understand with a womanizer like my son, he has to settle down sometime.
00:59:33Anna, come with me.
00:59:34I want to show you something.
00:59:47Ethan, that was you.
01:00:00Ethan, that was you.
01:00:13Anna, your music inspired Ethan when he was suffering from depression.
01:00:18No matter what happens between you two, you will always be part of my family.
01:00:26Such a short-sighted family.
01:00:29How could they let a beautiful gem like you go unnoticed for so long?
01:00:34Promise me that you will never let family drama hold you back.
01:00:38You have so much talent.
01:00:41Don't waste it.
01:00:42Promise me.
01:00:43You deserve more.
01:00:52The Luna family just had a press conference.
01:00:54They're cutting ties, please.
01:00:58Our partners are pulling out and the funding is about to dry out.
01:01:06Damn that, Anna!
01:01:07How dare she seduce a man to get what she wants?
01:01:10Again!
01:01:11Jack, you're lucky to be rid of her.
01:01:13She's nothing but a goddamn whore.
01:01:17This is on you.
01:01:18You all pushed her away.
01:01:20Now get out!
01:01:21All of you!
01:01:39Here.
01:01:40This is all my savings.
01:01:42I want you to have it.
01:01:45I don't have much, but I want to contribute.
01:01:49I want you all to have it.
01:01:49This is all yours.
01:01:50This is too much.
01:01:50This is all my savings.
01:02:00This is all my savings.
01:02:01I want you to pay for all these things out here.
01:02:06I don't know.
01:02:36Jack's favourite coffee, Colombian single origin.
01:02:46Grind should be medium fine, with a water to coffee ratio of 1.15.
01:03:05Fruit at 197 degrees Fahrenheit.
01:03:09For spring and fall business dinners, he prefers silk ties with subtle patterns.
01:03:18For summer outdoor events, a simple cotton twill tie works well with casual suits.
01:03:23What have I done?
01:03:34How could have I been so blind?
01:03:41So took over granted.
01:03:43I don't care how you do it, but you need to spread a rumour that Anna hired a bunch of trolls to attack me online.
01:04:08I mean it. We're going to make her drop out of this competition. You'll see.
01:04:17What the hell's going on with all this online drama?
01:04:20You need to control the online narrative.
01:04:22Oh, we've tried.
01:04:23But the Luna family is shielding Anna.
01:04:26Every move we make is being blocked.
01:04:28Now, you created this mess. You fix it.
01:04:33Fix it!
01:04:39Anna ruined your sister's career.
01:04:41Why are you still defending her?
01:04:43No, this whole mess started with Lauren.
01:04:47But weren't for you and her pushing her.
01:04:49Oh, ungrateful idiot.
01:04:51I dropped everything to help you.
01:04:53I risked my entire career to help your dumb sister.
01:04:57I thought eventually you might appreciate me.
01:05:01Sophie, I do.
01:05:03I appreciate what you've done for me.
01:05:05Jack, help me just this once.
01:05:09Use the Brown family resources and get those negative comments removed.
01:05:13Sophie, how did you get so selfish?
01:05:18Anna never asked for anything in return.
01:05:21She just gave and gave and we pushed her away.
01:05:25And we won't help you because Anna's suffered enough.
01:05:29Besides, the Brown family's done.
01:05:36About to be banquered.
01:05:39Just forget about your precious Anna.
01:05:42She means nothing to us.
01:05:46You can't lose.
01:05:59Anna, I need a weird answer.
01:06:03Do you see a future for us?
01:06:10If I feel fireworks, I'm yours.
01:06:29And I really gave in that easily?
01:06:49Maybe it was destiny.
01:06:51I planned the fireworks in advance.
01:06:54You wouldn't believe it, but in that moment,
01:06:55I felt like the luckiest man in the world.
01:06:58What a coincidence.
01:07:00Fireworks will melt a girl's heart every time.
01:07:04What about the Brown family?
01:07:05How are you planning to deal with them?
01:07:09They haven't paid for what they did yet.
01:07:13But I think now it's time they do.
01:07:20I'm in hell.
01:07:22Hey.
01:07:26No, that was Mom.
01:07:28Sophie's so kind.
01:07:34If I ask her for help, there's no way she'll say no.
01:07:39Ha ha!
01:07:40Sophie, please.
01:07:45I want to work for Professor McNeil.
01:07:49I want to work for Professor McNeil.
01:07:52You promised I'd be the best penis in the family.
01:07:55and one, two, go.
01:08:04Yeah.
01:08:06Even if you were some kind of genius, your reputation's already ruined.
01:08:14Sophie, we used to be best friends. Please help the Brown family. We just want a small favor.
01:08:21You two are such self-seeking leeches. Get out of my house. Fuck you!
01:08:27Fuck you!
01:08:44Why is it so cold?
01:08:54The servants are gone.
01:08:56What?
01:09:01I realized that Sophie used me as a pawn to get to Jack.
01:09:08How could I be so stupid, Mom?
01:09:11I miss Anna.
01:09:14Really?
01:09:24Your rhythm is perfect.
01:09:26I'm a little too perfect, actually. I think you can afford to relax.
01:09:30I think if you find the emotion in the peace, you'll connect to it a lot more.
01:09:34Your penis touches me.
01:09:39If Anna were here, things wouldn't have went so wrong.
01:09:42There was a time our family almost went bankrupt, and she was there for us. She has always been there for us.
01:09:50Why did I trust that bitch Sophie?
01:09:52Sophie?
01:09:55I hate to admit it, but I miss Anna, too.
01:10:02Hey.
01:10:03I've already called the doctor.
01:10:04Doctor.
01:10:05Don't worry. Your blood pressure results are completely normal.
01:10:09Oh.
01:10:10Thank you, dear.
01:10:20We've got to get it back.
01:10:34Anna, I didn't know all the things that Sophie did to hurt you. I'm sorry. But I was a victim, too. Our marriage was destroyed.
01:10:45Jack, you can't blame Sophie for everything. We don't really share the same values in life.
01:10:50You've always put me second to your business. You've never truly appreciated me.
01:10:55You're the reason we got divorced.
01:10:56Well, don't think Ethan is a saint. He's a Luna. He's put the Brown family on the verge of bankruptcy.
01:11:03Open your eyes, Anna.
01:11:06He doesn't really love you.
01:11:09Stop it! You need to start taking responsibility for your own failings.
01:11:12Fine. Then, even if I go bankrupt, I'll fight to get you back in my life.
01:11:19Leave me alone, Jack. Do I need to get a restraining order?
01:11:36Is what Jack said true? Are you really bankrupting their business?
01:11:39I'm going to tear down the privileges that they are most proud of.
01:11:45Ethan, can you please leave Jack's family to their own fate?
01:11:48You still have feelings for him.
01:11:57Don't you?
01:12:01We were married for six years.
01:12:03Of course there's still going to be some residual feelings there.
01:12:07But it's not what you think.
01:12:09I don't care about him anymore.
01:12:10Be careful. The Luna family has deployed extra security recently.
01:12:25pretty recently.
01:12:26Definitely.
01:12:56When Chopin was 19, he fell in love with a classmate, his first love.
01:13:17But he was too shy to confess, so he poured all of his emotions into this piece.
01:13:23If ever I was to confess to someone, this is the piece I choose.
01:13:41I've started my new life. I've moved on.
01:13:46People in my past will have to figure out their own lives.
01:13:49I guess I'm just jealous of the past you had with him.
01:14:03I wish I'd known that confident 20-year-old you.
01:14:08Ethan, I'm 26, not 60.
01:14:13Besides, age is just a number.
01:14:14You have my present and my future.
01:14:53Professor.
01:15:04How come Anna's competition piece is the same as Sophie's?
01:15:14Sophie is just trying to distract you.
01:15:16She's a snake.
01:15:19Then I'll change my piece.
01:15:21Catch her off guard.
01:15:22But isn't that risky?
01:15:24Time is precious.
01:15:26Switching at the last minute?
01:15:28Professor, please trust me.
01:15:52What's going on?
01:16:05Is this some magic trick arranged by the organizers?
01:16:13You're not as calm as you pretend.
01:16:15Too bad.
01:16:16Your little tricks won't shake the fact that I'm Arya in everyone's eyes and not you.
01:16:20Hear the essaus?
01:16:22This is some magic trick.
01:16:26How many of you are there?
01:16:28You could run your friend, you could have to do it now.
01:16:30I'm an avete.
01:16:30This is a flower with a boy.
01:16:30What's going on though?
01:16:31May I save your mother?
01:16:31How many of you want me?
01:16:32I have to pick you up.
01:16:33What Sabah say is just like a mermaid.
01:16:34There is a delight.
01:16:35What's going on though?
01:16:36Soon ago, who's trying to break me up.
01:16:37Thank you very much.
01:17:07Thank you very much.
01:17:37Thank you very much.
01:18:01Aria's performance is just dynamic and precise.
01:18:09Impossible.
01:18:10How can anyone mimic it so perfectly unless she is Aria?
01:18:18Aria's performance is just dynamic and precise.
01:18:26Aria's performance is just dynamic and precise.
01:18:36Aria's performance is just dynamic and precise.
01:18:46Aria's performance is just dynamic and precise.
01:18:56Aria's performance is just dynamic and precise.
01:19:06Aria's performance is just dynamic and precise.
01:19:16Aria can't possibly be Aria.
01:19:26Aria cannot be replicated.
01:19:30You must have had someone else play it for you.
01:19:34Oh my god, it's Anna!
01:19:36She is the real Aria!
01:19:39I am Aria, yes.
01:19:44I wrote this piece in the last few months.
01:19:47It's a reflection of my life over the past six years from being downtrodden, rejected and betrayed.
01:19:55It was writing that healed me.
01:19:57I hope my music has moved you in the way that I intended.
01:20:01May we all stay true to ourselves and be the masters of our own destiny.
01:20:07You knew Aria's true identity, didn't you?
01:20:21So you took Anna's title, desperate to win her ex-husband's part.
01:20:25How dare you openly deceive the public?
01:20:28Do you really think your family's influence can shield you?
01:20:32How much clout do you think the Loomis family has?
01:20:35Anna, please forgive us.
01:20:48I'm ashamed of myself.
01:20:50I wasn't there for you when you needed me.
01:20:53I am responsible for you myself.
01:20:58I wasn't asking.
01:21:00It's all my fault.
01:21:02I mistook you a precious gem for something far less.
01:21:06Please, for the sake of our past, give us a chance to make things right.
01:21:12Come back.
01:21:13Anna, I was manipulated into hurting you.
01:21:18If I had trusted you more, now I can see it clearly.
01:21:22You were the one who was always there for us.
01:21:28These hardships have helped me to grow, both mentally and physically.
01:21:33I no longer need your approval or your apology.
01:21:37I wish you well, but we will no longer be in each other's lives.
01:21:41There you are.
01:21:59I've been doing a lot of thinking and I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:22:12Will you marry me?
01:22:14I know.
01:22:15I love you.
01:22:16I love you.
01:22:17I know.
01:22:19I love you.
01:22:22I love you too.
01:22:24Are you okay?
01:22:26I love you.
01:22:56Are you ready to begin the rest of our lives?
01:23:26Are you ready to begin the rest of our lives?
01:23:56Are you ready to begin the rest of our lives?
