[gentle music playing]

[woman] James?

James, can you hear me?

[birds chirping]

Mom?

James!

[both chuckle]

[James] I've missed you so much.

But why?

I'm always with you.

I'm sorry, Mom.

Don't be so hard on yourself.

You have a good heart.

You just need to learn to listen to it.

Mom… Mom?

[siren wailing]

[woman] James?

James?

James?

Can you hear me?

James?

MAXTON HALL THE WORLD BETWEEN US

BASED ON THE NOVEL "SAVE YOU"
BY MONA KASTEN

His vitals are stable.

How is he?

He must have had a guardian angel.

He has barely any injuries.

Room 207.

I'll take it from here.

Get lost, Ophelia.

If Mrs. Beaufort hadn't reacted so well,

we wouldn't have been able
to help so quickly.

Your stubbornness will k*ll you.

You just want your delayed revenge.

We won't become friends
in this life, Mortimer,

even if my sister wanted it very much.

Whether you like it or not,

I'll watch over James and Lydia
from now on.

My children are none of your business.

Of course they are.
They are my family too.

Despite your attempts to ostracize me.

Cordelia and I, we were always in touch.

I know everything about them both.

She certainly wouldn't have wanted them
to be at your mercy alone.

Don't worry.

We will soon find out
what Cordelia's last will was.

Yes.

Thank you for your efforts, doctor.

Mortimer.

Ophelia.

How long until he's back on his feet?

[door closes]

[Lydia] James!

I swear, if you scare me like that
one more time, I'll k*ll you.

[both chuckle softly]

Dad will be here soon too.

I don't want to see him.

He was really worried.

I can't do any of this any longer.

Being Dad's model son,

the board, Beaufort,
the shareholders, the press…

You're going to get better first.

I can try to have your back at Beaufort.

I promise you,
you won't have to worry for now.

Should I let Ruby know?

I broke her heart, Lyd.

I lost her.

Thank God.

[door closes]

[door opens]

[door closes]

James.

Hey.

How are you?

I was so worried.

[gentle music playing]

I couldn't come any earlier.

Did he say what it was about?

Sorry, I didn't sleep well.

I keep dreaming
about rejections from Oxford.

Nonsense, they would be stupid
not to take you.

The letters will arrive tomorrow,
then we'll know more.

James tried to reach me.

[Lin] What did he want?

I don't know. I didn't call back.

[knocking at door]

[Lexington] Miss Bell,
regarding the charity gala…

You were supposed to develop an idea,
not suggest a new venue.

And certainly not our school.

Since you praised
the Victorian party so much

I thought it would match the Campbell
philosophy, that it'd be a good approach.

So convincing that someone from
the Campbell Foundation just called me.

-It's not official yet.
-Does this mean Ruby's concept was chosen?

-[both giggling excitedly]
-[clears throat]

[both clear throat]

Yes.

And thanks
to Miss Bell's grandiose concept,

an exclusive charity gala
will be held here,

which will cost
at least £40,000 to implement.

-And how do you intend to finance this?
-Sponsoring.

-We will talk to our classmates' parents.
-Have you lost your mind?

Miss Bell, you won't trouble
the parents of your classmates,

who already pay a fortune for school fees,

with your wild ideas.

You are responsible for the financing.

If anything happens
that brings our school into disrepute…

Then you'll get to know
another side of me.

[slams]

Go!

["Get Up" playing]

Yes, keep at it.

Yes.

Very good.

And go!

♪ I'm gonna keep running and running
and running and running ♪

♪ And running and running ♪

Go!

-Get it!
-Yes.

♪ I can conquer anything ♪

[blows whistle]

[all chatting indistinctly]

Men! The final will happen soon.

Then it will be decided
if you leave Maxton Hall as winners

or as losers.

I know that some of you'll only get
into Oxford on a sports scholarship.

That's why I've scheduled a trial run…

-[neck cracks]
-[sighs]

[team chuckles]

-Is your head on now?
-[in English] Yes, coach.

[in German] Good.

Have you decided on a captain?

[Alistair] James will be back soon.

He just needs a little time.

-Are you sure?
-The funeral was only yesterday.

He's our captain.

[scoffs]

[Coach Freeman] So, carry on.

[players speaking indistinctly]

[neck cracks]

Ready? Go.

[gentle music playing]

He's okay.

[exhales]

I'm sorry I couldn't stop him.

It's not your fault, Percy.

[Mortimer] I'm leaving right away. Percy?

Get the car, please.

I'm sorry. I have to go.

Our partners in Milan
have called an emergency meeting.

And now this with James.

If this gets out,
it will be a catastrophe.

I have to rethink the whole strategy
for the investor meeting.

-I'll have Julia prepare something.
-Okay.

Before you say anything,
please let me finish.

As long as James is sitting out,
I can support you.

I know the numbers
and all about Young Beaufort.

I can help you.

Okay.

Okay?

Special circumstances
require special measures.

Okay.

I've got it.
We could organize a fundraiser.

A fundraiser to finance a fundraiser?

Ridiculous idea.

-That's it!
-Yes?

The sequin dress! That's what I'm wearing.

-The solution.
-We're collecting ideas for the budget.

[Camille] Isn't that your job?

[Kieran]
We could auction off tutoring.

[Lin] Are you okay?

Yes. I'm late, I have to go to work.

You were there? Did James really freak out
as much as everyone's saying?

Yeah, really insane.

I mean, hello? It's your mom's funeral.

What is wrong with you?
Nothing better to do?

Come, Ruby.

Ruby.

I can't do it. This place, the people…

I'm trying to forget James,
but he's everywhere.

All I want is to go to him,

but it was a terrible mistake
to fall in love with him.

I can't focus on anything, and yet there's
so much that's important right now.

If I don't pull myself together,
I'll lose everything I've worked for.

[sighs]

[phone chimes]

[beeps]

[Graham] Lydia, I…

I don't even know how I should start.

I heard what happened with your mother.

I'm so sorry.

If there's anything I can do for you,
if you need anything,

I'm here for you, okay?

I'm thinking of you.

[phone rings]

-Hello?
-[Lin] Hi, Lydia, it's Lin.

It's about Ruby.

Life has given you a second chance.

Of course, I can't force you to stay,

but I would like to recommend
our clinic therapist.

Dr. Perry is a trauma specialist.

A really good one.

["Memories" playing]

♪ I never thought I'd see the day ♪

♪ That I wouldn't see your face ♪

[James] Loneliness.

A feeling that can hit you quite suddenly.

Loneliness is not the lack of company.

It is a lack of connection

It is up to us to make the change

Thanks, good luck.

[Ember] Ruby!

Not now!

But it's important!

-Hi!
-Surprise!

[pleasant music playing]

Okay, they promised never to mention
the one whose name must not be said.

And because a high dose of fun
is the best medicine for a broken heart,

we're having a pajama party.

Oh, and we even have muffins.

Thank you.

You're sweet.

To the future!

Talking about future,

I brought something with me.

I got it from my mom's gallery.

[Lin chuckles]

In my family, we let them fly
at special turning points in life.

And we write a wish
or an intention on them,

light them, and let them go.

Everything they carry into the sky
will come true.

Did it ever work?

My mom wished
to make money with art one day.

And this year
she's in the black for the first time!

Amazing!

Okay, I know what I wish for.

A million followers?

[scoffs] You aren't the only one
who will change the world.

True, Ember's fashion
will conquer the world.

Fashion?

So, this will be the underskirt

[gentle music playing]

[indistinct conversations]

Ah.

-Hi.
-Hey!

You were right.

My mom asked around in her network.

There are many artists
who would donate art to a good cause.

We can meet her today
at her mom's gallery.

-Really?
-Yes.

-That's...
-sh*t.

Uh… [chuckles]

Hey!

-All good?
-Hi, Lydia.

[Elaine] Hey, you're back.

My man.

Ah, Miss Bell.

Could you come by my office to update me
on the latest for the dinner planning?

-Now?
-Now?

Now would be great. Yes.

-[Elaine] It's so nice to see you again.
-Thanks.

[Alistair] Great that you're back.

Coach said that talent scouts from Oxford
are coming to the final game.

Our captain is back, no need to worry.

One or two test games and I'm back in.

Perfect! We scheduled one for today.

Let's go.

[Wren] See you later.

See you later, then.
You're coming, aren't you?

Sure, see you later.

[groans]

Is everything okay?

Yes, everything's fine.

I've collected all the homework for you.

I can come around after school
and explain it to you.

Let me know.

I can help you, okay?

Thanks. That's sweet of you.

-[Cyril] Hello, Mr. Sutton.
-Mr. Vega.

-Miss Beaufort, nice to see you're back.
-Thank you.

Mr. Vega,
could I talk to you for a moment?

I'll go ahead.

Yes, sure.

I'm worried about you.

-Is there a plan B for Oxford?
-Why?

It seems your grades won't be enough.

What can I do?

Most of the exams are already over.

I can't do anything,
but you are on the lacrosse team.

A top performance
and a win in the next game

would be enough
for an athletic scholarship.

That could save you.

If you don't have the money by tomorrow,
I promise you I'll cancel the event.

-But, sir, I assure you…
-Close the door.

Okay. Of course, sir. See you tomorrow.

-Sorry I'm late.
-No problem.

It meant that we could chat.

[James] Hi, Ruby.

What are you doing here?

-You don't have to participate.
-I know that I don't have to.

-We really have a lot to do.
-That's why I'm here.

Shouldn't you be playing lacrosse
or something?

I heard you have budget problems?

I just want to help. Acquisition,
communication, wherever you need me.

A word?

I don't need your help.

Of course not.

I planned every step.

-Everything is working perfectly.
-Ruby, I know you can do it.

You can do everything
you set your mind to.

-I really want to just help.
-This is important. You upset matters.

-Sorry, I know I messed up.
-Stop.

You can do your bit, but private life
and school are strictly separated.

Okay.

I cannot and will not work with you.
Not here and not anywhere else.

You can discuss everything
with Kieran and Lin.

You called?

-Kieran, come on!
-No?

If you should change your mind

and prefer to play lacrosse,
then don't let me stop you.

No, I'll prove to you
that you can trust me.

It's a deal.

[phone chimes]

LYDIA
Hey, Ruby. I'm not feeling well.

Do you know a good gynecologist?

An emergency.
You have to go to the gallery alone.

That means… James will come along.

What's going on with Beaufort?

Why isn't he here yet?

He'll be here soon for sure.

V-E-G-A. Vega.

Captain Vega.

Let's go, boys!

-[all exclaiming]
-Let's go!

Well then…

[James] This is the mailbox
of James Beaufort.

Please leave a message.

Hey, James.

Sorry, I know
it's all a bit much just now,

but we were really counting on you.

Are you still coming?

JAMES - Sorry. Something came up.
I'll be in touch later. J.

[phone vibrates]

ALISTAIR - You really should come.
YOU are our captain!

Hey, Ellington, get your a*s on the field.
Or are you gonna chicken out too?

Warm up well, boys.

-[Lin] Hi, Mom.
-Lin.

Hi.

That's Kieran.

-Thank you for having us, Mrs. Wang.
-[Mrs. Wang] My pleasure.

ALISTAIR - You really should come.
YOU are our captain!

[Lin] And you already know James.

My heartfelt condolences, James.

Come on.

Impressive pieces, sir.

The style reminds me of Monet
with elements of Turner.

Mr. Kun Jinghzao.

-No need to put on airs, we'll manage.
-Relax, Rutherford, okay?

They cost £8,000 to £10,000 per piece.

If we butter him up a bit, he might donate
a couple of them for the gala.

Uh, that's why we're here. We'll manage it
without your great strategies.

Okay.

Mr... [whispers]
What's his name again?

Kun Jinghzao.

Exactly. What do these cost…

[clatters]

Uh, exactly. Can you perhaps tell me
what it's about?

Yes, that's…

[mouthing]

Well, yes, it would be great if you
could just explain it a bit more to us.

It's a bit crooked.

[James] You can't just…

-You think it'll hold?
-It wasn't like that. Stop!

What should we do now?

Sir, I'm incredibly sorry.

I have… It was an accident.

I can't explain… It's totally my fault.

Oh.

Thank you.

By the way, I think they cost
about £12,000 per piece.

Funny, right?

And now imagine if the thing had broken.
So funny.

-It just looked funny.
-You're funny.

You're here just
to score points with Ruby.

But she sees right through it.

You have no idea how much Ruby and I
have to work after school

to afford books and supplies
for Maxton Hall.

And you come here and just laugh about it.

Funny.

I'm sorry, okay?

That was shitty of me.

And even that looks cool on you.

I feel anything but cool right now.

Trust me.

[Lin chuckling]

Mr. Kun Jinghzao will donate sculptures
with a value of £20,000 to us.

-What? Really?
-Yes!

-Then we already have half.
-[laughs]

-We have to tell Ruby that.
-Yes.

-We'll call her, come on.
-Okay.

-Yes. Sure.
-[phone vibrates]

Hey, Dad. Sorry, I can't talk right now...

[Mortimer] Where is your sister, damn it?

Why isn't she answering her phone?

I just got back from Milan.

The board is calling for a meeting.

Whatever you are doing, drop everything.

I need you here. Now!

[bell tolls]

Thanks for coming with me, Ruby.

Sure, don't worry.
You are in the best hands here.

She has to say that because I was
the attending doctor at her birth.

[all chuckle]

When did you feel the cramping
for the first time?

-This morning. It hurt pretty bad.
-[phone vibrates]

Sorry.

JAMES IS CALLING - MUTE

How are you doing?

Are you getting support at home?

Is the father of the child involved?

No, Ruby is actually the only one
who knows.

And at first I thought I would manage.

Others manage it too.

But now…

I don't know…

It's understandable
that you feel overwhelmed.

Don't be alarmed,
it's going to get a little cold now.

A little meteorism.

Flatulence.

Is that the baby already?
Is that the head?

Yes, and this little marshmallow here…

That's the heart.

[soft music playing]

At first glance,
everything looks fine, Lydia.

Would it be maybe possible
to hear the baby's heartbeat?

Of course.

[baby's heart beating]

That's so surreal.

I measure three and a half
pretty real centimeters.

That's a baby…

That's my baby.

And sometimes
you get more than you expect.

It's not one.

It's two.

[gasps]

God.

[inaudible]

[man] Thanks, bye.

-Hi, Mom.
-Hello, you two.

It smells good here.

Hello, Mrs. Bell.

Do you have a "Happy Day" special for us?

Of course. I'll be right back.

[indistinct conversations]

There you are.
Good that you came so quickly.

Did I have a choice?

-Did Lydia get in touch?
-Of course not.

Did something happen?

I trusted her promises,
that's what happened.

She didn't know there would be a meeting.

She had to be reachable, that's it.

To convince the board,
we have to act as one.

[scoffs]

[Ruby] The bakery belonged to my parents.

They saved every penny in their youth
to buy it.

It was their absolute dream.

After dad's accident,
they had to change their plans.

Mom has been working since
for the new owner, Mr. Smith.

On the condition she can buy back
the bakery when she raises the money.

Wow, really incredible
what your parents have been through.

I tried to call my mom from Oxford

to tell her about the pregnancy.

I wanted to make a plan with her
so that I could still join the company.

Having a baby doesn't mean
you have to throw your plans overboard.

Babies.

That's right.

[Lydia] Twins.

Like James and me.

[Ruby] Does that mean
you are keeping them?

[Lydia] I don't know how.

But when I think
about the little marshmallows…

-Marshmallows?
-Marshmallows.

Marshmallows.

Yes, I'll keep them.

These are fairly drastic measures.

Closing down Italy,
moving everything to China

and then B2B acquisition?

This is part of a multi-pronged strategy
that we have calculated in detail.

At the same time,
we will push Young Beaufort

and the target group will be addressed
with strongly identifiable content.

James, what do you say about this?

I…

[clears throat]

I think that the…

Hello.

Thanks again, Murray.
I appreciate it very much.

Your donation will help a lot of people.

That's very generous.

But of course. James.

Everything okay with you?

Yeah, but what the hell did you want
from that as*h*le,

sorry, Owen Murray?

I've convinced him that he should
contribute to Ruby's gala budget.

Not quite enough, but still.

You stayed away from the meeting, which
might have convinced Dad of your talent.

I wanted to at least
take advantage of the situation.

What board meeting?

We've been trying
to reach you the whole time, Lydia.

I had an unscheduled appointment.

[James] Mm-hmm.

[phone chiming repeatedly]

-Where's Dad?
-Gone to eat with the others.

Is he very angry?

If he finds out you were
in Gormsey in a bakery, then for sure.

What were you doing there?

I was with Ruby.

You know exactly what the situation is
between us and how I feel about it.

Instead of having my back like you said,
you're meeting her for coffee.

So Dad can just pull me back in
the business because you aren't available?

Really great. Thanks.

It's not only your life
that's complicated.

-Are you going to start drinking again?
-I had a shitty day.

-Yes, that's…
-Leave me alone.

Sorry.

What's this?

Lyd?

Yes, and we opened an account
with a small sum for the start.

No, that's the money for the bakery.

I can't do it alone.

I'm supposed to make up
the Oxford interviews.

I'm sorry but you can't just come here.

I want to fight for us.

Because I belong to you.
I will always belong to you.

-You alone understand me.
-Stop.

I can't, okay? I tried, it doesn't work.

Why are you doing this to me?

Hmm?

I need you, Ruby.

Do you know what I need?

I need peace.

I need time to get over you.
You ripped my damned heart out.

I hate you for it!

But I love you too
and that makes it so much harder.

All I want

is you, okay?

When I'm with you, I'm happy.

But it's not my damn job
to make you happy, okay?

I hope that your father
will stop controlling your life.

That you can become the brother
that Lydia deserves.

That you manage to remain stable.

For you.

I can't save you, James. Only you can.

My family is waiting.

I would like to continue celebrating
my Oxford acceptance now.

[car door closes]

[car engine starts]

Sweetie.

[gentle music playing]

[indistinct conversations]

[Lexington] It all looks very
promising indeed.

I am confident

that your ideas and designs
will appeal to Mrs. Campbell.

But what still interests me the most
is the budget.

[Ruby] Of course, sir.

We've been able to acquire some funds,

but all in all we still have a certain gap
to close to reach the target amount.

Kieran?

[clears throat] Yes. Um…

Thanks to a very nice Chinese artist,

who I would now also call a friend,

we got a donation
of sculptures worth £20,000.

Add to that some small donations,

which brings us to an interim total of…

£20,900.

[Lexington] Miss Bell,
unless my math skills are

-letting me down…
-Rutherford.

…this figure is
barely more than half the expected amount.

That is not what you promised me.

Additionally,

other generous donations
have been received.

Owen Murray, Sir Kent, and the director of
Simpson Motors are pledging their support,

which brings us to an even total of…

£39,900.

[all gasp and applaud]

That sounds better.

-Thanks, Kieran.
-Uh, yes.

Then I'll take the liberty
of closing the funding gap.

[all cheer and applaud]

Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Bell,

here's to a spectacular evening.

Thank you.

[Rudy laughs] Okay, okay, okay.

Yes, okay. One second.

I've got Alice Campbell's assistant
on the line.

The photo booth they want to contribute
needs picking up right now.

-What? Now?
-Now!

Kieran and I must go to the catering
and the decorating company.

I'll take care of it, but I need help.
That thing is way too…

I'm still here. Okay, we'll do that.

…heavy.

[Lin] Okay. Bye.

Smells like roses.

My mother loves flowers.

Thanks for letting me help you.

I'm sorry I crashed your party like that.

I knew that Oxford would take you.

I mean, how stupid would they be not to?

But congratulations.

I really mean that.

Thanks.

I also have to apologize to you.
I wasn't very nice.

You don't have to apologize for anything.

Mrs. Campbell is the best.

I went through
a pretty dark time a few years ago.

Her foundation saved my life.

They paid for all my therapy
and helped me to get back on my feet.

-I could never have done it on my own.
-Everyone should get this opportunity.

Exactly my opinion.

And there it is.
Why is this thing so important?

Gala guests will be politicians, members
of the royal family, and celebrities.

So, people who don't necessarily
like each other.

Anything that can help break the ice
will contribute to a good cause.

Very clever.

Wasn't the idea
that two people try it out?

Actually, yes.
