I Became Ugly To Avoid My Stepbrother | Full AI Drama Movie — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00I was done being judged for my face.
- 0:03So, I decided to become the girl nobody
- 0:05would ever notice.
- 0:07Ugly? Maybe. Invisible?
- 0:11Perfect.
- 0:13And on my first day of college,
- 0:15nobody even looked twice.
- 0:18Especially the one guy I desperately
- 0:20wanted to avoid.
- 0:22Damon Blake, college's biggest
- 0:24troublemaker.
- 0:27He didn't even see me. Exactly as
- 0:29planned.
- 0:30I have wonderful news. After surviving
- 0:33my first day without anyone recognizing
- 0:35me, I thought I was finally safe.
- 0:37Richard and I are moving in together.
- 0:39Then mom decided to move in with her new
- 0:41boyfriend. I thought, great, new house,
- 0:43fresh start. Then she mentioned one tiny
- 0:46problem, his son. And apparently, my new
- 0:49home came with a roommate. I just didn't
- 0:51know who.
- 0:52>> Welcome home.
- 0:53>> Until I heard his voice.
- 0:56>> Wait, you?
- 1:00>> That was Damon Blake.
- 1:03The guy I spent my entire first year
- 1:05avoiding.
- 1:05>> Lena, this is my son, Damon.
- 1:07>> Nice to meet you.
- 1:08>> Nice to meet you. I've been avoiding you
- 1:10since September.
- 1:13You two are going to have so much fun
- 1:14living together. Living together? That
- 1:17wasn't part of the plan. Mom, you didn't
- 1:19tell me his son was Damon Blake. You
- 1:21know him? No, that's the problem.
- 1:24>> [music]
- 1:25>> How was I supposed to be myself at home
- 1:27when my stepbrother was the guy I was
- 1:28trying to avoid at school? New rule,
- 1:30avoid Damon at all costs.
- 1:32>> Morning.
- 1:33>> Morning.
- 1:35Rule number two, don't get noticed.
- 1:37>> Hey, you dropped this.
- 1:41>> At college, my disguise was perfect.
- 1:44Even he had no idea.
- 1:48>> [music]
- 1:49>> Why was Damon talking to you?
- 1:52He wasn't. I saw him. Stay away [music]
- 1:55from him.
- 1:57Great. I hadn't even done anything yet.
- 2:00I had spent months making sure nobody
- 2:02noticed me.
- 2:03And now everyone suddenly had a reason
- 2:05to.
- 2:05>> Hey Lena.
- 2:06>> Hi. Of course, because apparently
- 2:08avoiding him at college wasn't difficult
- 2:10enough.
- 2:10>> You heading to Professor Miller's class?
- 2:12>> Yeah.
- 2:13>> Good, me too.
- 2:14>> My invisibility plan had one major flaw.
- 2:16>> Why are you walking over there?
- 2:18>> Damon Blake apparently didn't believe in
- 2:19personal space.
- 2:20>> Just going this way.
- 2:22>> That's debatable.
- 2:24Oops.
- 2:25There went invisible.
- 2:27>> You're funny, you know that?
- 2:30>> That's not good.
- 2:32>> I thought you barely talked.
- 2:34>> Maybe you don't give people much reason
- 2:35to.
- 2:36>> [laughter]
- 2:37>> I could already feel my carefully
- 2:39invisible life falling apart.
- 2:43One day living with Damon Blake and I
- 2:45already needed an escape.
- 2:47This is who I really am.
- 2:50And this is the girl nobody at
- 2:52Westbridge gets to see.
- 2:54Finally.
- 2:55Five minutes of peace.
- 2:57Finally.
- 2:58Five minutes where nobody needs anything
- 3:00from me.
- 3:02No Damon.
- 3:03No Victoria.
- 3:05No pretending.
- 3:11Oh no.
- 3:14>> Hey.
- 3:15Are you okay?
- 3:22Woah, are you hurt?
- 3:24What the
- 3:25Wait.
- 3:29WAIT.
- 3:31WHAT WAS THAT?
- 3:34>> DO YOU ALWAYS STORM INTO GIRLS ROOMS
- 3:35LIKE THAT?
- 3:36>> You punched me.
- 3:37>> You jumped into the pool.
- 3:39>> You were in the pool?
- 3:41>> I don't even know how to swim. Last
- 3:42night was a disaster. I thought my
- 3:45secret had survived.
- 3:48Then I noticed something.
- 3:52Someone had been
- 3:53outside my room.
- 3:55>> I swear THERE WAS A GIRL IN THE POOL. I
- 3:57jumped in to save her.
- 3:59She punched me.
- 4:00>> Oh my god.
- 4:01>> Who punches someone who's trying to
- 4:03rescue them?
- 4:05I'm serious.
- 4:07Did you see her face?
- 4:08No.
- 4:09>> [gasps]
- 4:10>> But she lives here.
- 4:13Okay.
- 4:15Where did you disappear to?
- 4:20Lena?
- 4:21>> Morning.
- 4:24>> Were you awake last night?
- 4:26>> Nope.
- 4:28Okay. He didn't recognize me.
- 4:31Problem solved.
- 4:32>> Breakfast, 5 minutes. Damon, you're
- 4:34driving Lena to college today.
- 4:35Apparently we live together now. Might
- 4:37as well survive the drive.
- 4:38>> Can't wait.
- 4:40>> Everything okay?
- 4:41>> Perfect.
- 4:57>> You've been weird all morning.
- 4:58>> I've always been weird.
- 4:59>> Fair point.
- 5:03Everything okay?
- 5:05>> Perfect.
- 5:12Finally, 5 minutes without Damon.
- 5:17Was that Damon with her?
- 5:19>> Apparently.
- 5:21>> Oh, no.
- 5:23Oops.
- 5:30>> You okay?
- 5:31>> Stop helping me.
- 5:32>> Why?
- 5:33>> Because you're making everything worse.
- 5:39What exactly are you doing with Damon?
- 5:44Nothing.
- 5:45>> Lena?
- 5:49Lena?
- 5:55Lena?
- 6:03What the
- 6:05Hey.
- 6:10>> You owe me.
- 6:12>> [panting]
- 6:24>> Wait.
- 6:25What do you mean I owe you?
- 6:27Stay away from Damon.
- 6:36New plan. Study harder.
- 6:39Graduate at the top of my class. [music]
- 6:44>> Oh my god, I'm so sorry.
- 6:46>> Well,
- 6:48I wasn't planning on eating my notes
- 6:49anyway.
- 6:52>> I'm seriously sorry.
- 6:54>> You should be. I spent 3 hours writing
- 6:57those.
- 6:57>> [laughter]
- 6:59>> Some people really shouldn't try to fit
- 7:01in.
- 7:03Don't worry about them.
- 7:07>> Seriously, I owe you one.
- 7:09>> You owe me about 3 hours.
- 7:10>> [laughter]
- 7:11>> You're actually funny.
- 7:13>> Please don't spread that around.
- 7:16>> Are you always this annoying?
- 7:18>> Only with people I like.
- 7:21>> There. You smiled.
- 7:23>> No, I didn't.
- 7:24>> Yep. We're friends now.
- 7:28And we're going to a party tonight.
- 7:31>> Absolutely not.
- 7:32>> I wasn't asking.
- 7:37Try this.
- 7:38>> Why?
- 7:39>> Because we're going to a party.
- 7:40>> No.
- 7:41>> Okay. What about this? Still no.
- 7:45Do you actually own anything that isn't
- 7:46designed to make people run away? That's
- 7:48the goal.
- 7:49What are you doing? Improving it.
- 7:52Absolutely not. They're huge. Exactly.
- 7:56Fine. Keep the glasses, keep the hair,
- 7:59keep the tragic outfit, but you're
- 8:01coming. I already regret having a
- 8:02friend. Too late.
- 8:07>> [cheering]
- 8:08>> Best night of your life. Worst decision
- 8:10of mine.
- 8:13Absolutely not.
- 8:21You're kidding me.
- 8:26Why does she keep looking at Damon?
- 8:29I thought I made it clear he's mine.
- 8:32I have an idea.
- 8:37Lina, there you are. Hi.
- 8:41Having fun? I'm trying. You know what? I
- 8:44think you actually look cute tonight.
- 8:47Are you feeling okay?
- 8:52>> [laughter]
- 8:54>> Oh my god, I'm so sorry.
- 8:57Right.
- 9:02Lina?
- 9:05>> [music]
- 9:06>> That was not an accident. I know.
- 9:09Lina, I'm really sorry. I swear I didn't
- 9:12mean to do that. Really? I feel
- 9:14terrible.
- 9:15Let me make it up to you. Come on. Peace
- 9:18offering.
- 9:30Mia?
- 9:31What? What?
- 9:33I don't feel right.
- 9:36Hey, are you okay?
- 9:38>> Yeah.
- 9:39No.
- 9:40>> Let's get you some water.
- 9:42>> I just need some air.
- 9:43>> Elena, wait.
- 9:45You're really not okay.
- 9:48>> I just need somewhere quiet.
- 9:51>> [laughter]
- 9:52>> Elena!
- 10:01>> [snorts]
- 10:07>> Better?
- 10:08>> Unfortunately.
- 10:09>> You're welcome.
- 10:12Who did that?
- 10:13>> Victoria.
- 10:15>> Of course.
- 10:25>> I
- 10:27need to lie down.
- 10:29>> Hey.
- 10:32Let's get you home.
- 10:36>> I'm okay. I don't need help.
- 10:39>> Clearly.
- 10:44You're safe now.
- 10:46>> Damon,
- 10:48don't go.
- 10:54>> She's nothing like the other girls.
- 10:56And somehow
- 10:58I can't stop caring about her.
- 11:13>> What are you doing here? What did we do?
- 11:17>> Stop screaming. Unless you want our
- 11:19parents storming in here and finding us
- 11:20in bed together.
- 11:22Relax.
- 11:24>> Then why are you in my bed?
- 11:26>> Victoria put something in your drink.
- 11:29You spent half the night trying to pull
- 11:30my clothes off
- 11:32and kissing me.
- 11:36>> I did what?
- 11:37>> You heard me.
- 11:39>> Oh my god. Why would you let me do that?
- 11:42>> Well,
- 11:43it was difficult. I'm kidding.
- 11:46>> You are such a jerk.
- 11:49>> You should have seen your face.
- 11:50>> I thought my life was over.
- 11:52>> Relax. You fell asleep. I stayed because
- 11:55you kept waking up.
- 11:56>> So,
- 11:57nothing happened?
- 11:58>> Nothing.
- 12:00Although you did steal the blanket.
- 12:02>> Oh.
- 12:04>> [laughter]
- 12:06>> Wait.
- 12:07What actually happened last night?
- 12:10>> You weren't yourself after that drink.
- 12:12You got dizzy really quickly.
- 12:14>> Victoria.
- 12:15>> I saw her give it to you.
- 12:17>> Do you think she did something to it?
- 12:18>> I don't know.
- 12:20But I don't trust her.
- 12:21>> We can't tell our parents.
- 12:23>> Agreed.
- 12:29>> What did she tell them?
- 12:31>> Let's find out.
- 12:36>> Finally, where have you been?
- 12:37>> It's a long story.
- 12:38>> You're telling me everything. Everybody
- 12:40is talking about you. What? Victoria is
- 12:41saying you were drunk, high, and
- 12:43sleeping around. She says you were
- 12:44completely out of control at the party.
- 12:46And she has pictures. She's showing
- 12:48everyone. Look at this this.
- 12:49>> Interesting. You drugged her, and that
- 12:51photo is me helping her. Leave Lena
- 12:53alone, or there will be consequences.
- 12:54This is your last warning.
- 12:56>> But Damon, we're perfect for each other.
- 12:57We could be amazing together. Forget
- 12:59about her.
- 12:59>> You need a woman, not a girl.
- 13:01>> Not your problem who I choose, but I'm
- 13:02definitely not choosing you.
- 13:04>> Okay, that was amazing. Can we please
- 13:07disappear now? Thank you.
- 13:09>> For what?
- 13:10>> For everything.
- 13:12>> You're welcome.
- 13:13>> Why did you defend me?
- 13:15>> Because they were lying.
- 13:16And because you didn't deserve it.
- 13:18>> You know, you're not always a terrible
- 13:19person.
- 13:20>> Careful.
- 13:20>> What?
- 13:21>> People might start liking me.
- 13:22>> Don't worry. We're safe.
- 13:24>> Okay, you two. We have a class, and you
- 13:27have somewhere else to be.
- 13:28>> Apparently.
- 13:30>> Interesting.
- 13:31>> What?
- 13:32>> Nothing.
- 13:35>> You cannot tell me that meant nothing.
- 13:37>> It meant he doesn't like liars.
- 13:39>> Sure.
- 13:41>> That's her.
- 13:43>> What?
- 13:45>> Watch where you're going.
- 13:46>> Seriously?
- 13:48This is getting worse.
- 13:52>> [music]
- 13:56>> What is it?
- 13:57>> Nothing.
- 14:01>> [music]
- 14:06>> Forget Victoria.
- 14:08>> That's the plan.
- 14:09>> Before we begin, I have an announcement.
- 14:12The winner receives a full academic
- 14:13scholarship and a place in the national
- 14:15finals.
- 14:16Teams will compete today, and I need one
- 14:18student to solve the first challenge.
- 14:20Anyone?
- 14:23>> [music]
- 14:30>> Correct.
- 14:34>> How did you even do that so fast?
- 14:37>> It wasn't that hard.
- 14:38>> You're terrifying.
- 14:41>> That was impressive.
- 14:42>> It was just a question.
- 14:43>> Most people didn't even understand it.
- 14:45So, why pretend you're not smart?
- 14:47>> I'm not pretending.
- 14:49>> Sure.
- 14:50Teams of two for the next round.
- 14:52Partner with me?
- 14:54>> Are you sure?
- 14:55>> I like impossible challenges.
- 14:58>> I'm not impossible.
- 15:00>> That's what makes you interesting.
- 15:04>> You have 60 seconds.
- 15:07>> Okay.
- 15:08The pattern starts here.
- 15:09>> No, look at the second sequence.
- 15:11>> You're right.
- 15:16Wait.
- 15:18If we reverse this,
- 15:19>> we get the answer.
- 15:21>> Trust yourself.
- 15:24And your late signal in the step is as
- 15:26well and
- 15:28>> [applause]
- 15:30[music]
- 15:34>> The highest individual score belongs to
- 15:36Lena Carter.
- 15:37>> Yes.
- 15:38>> [cheering]
- 15:38>> You'll represent Westbridge in the next
- 15:40stage of the competition.
- 15:42>> Thank you.
- 15:43>> Top of the class?
- 15:44>> Apparently.
- 15:46>> And here I thought your only talent was
- 15:47punching people in swimming pools.
- 15:49Well,
- 15:50whoever that girl was
- 15:52>> Still obsessed with your mystery
- 15:53swimmer?
- 15:54>> Curious.
- 15:55>> There's a difference?
- 15:55>> Big one.
- 15:57I want to know who she is.
- 15:59Hey.
- 16:01You okay? [music]
- 16:02>> Perfect.
- 16:05>> Okay, seriously. What? What's going on
- 16:07with you and Lena?
- 16:09>> Nothing.
- 16:09>> Nothing? You spend more time with that
- 16:11girl than you do with us.
- 16:12>> She's my partner for the competition.
- 16:14>> Sure. People are talking, man.
- 16:16>> People always talk.
- 16:17>> She's going to ruin your reputation.
- 16:18Come on. She's that weird girl with the
- 16:20giant glasses. Seriously, Damon. You
- 16:22could have any girl at this school.
- 16:23>> Can you two stop?
- 16:25>> Whoa. Defensive.
- 16:27>> She's not what you think.
- 16:28>> Since when do you care what people
- 16:29think? [music]
- 16:30>> I don't.
- 16:32>> He's definitely into her.
- 16:33>> Absolutely.
- 16:39>> [laughter]
- 16:41>> Come on, Damon. Everyone knows you could
- 16:43do better. Seriously. What do you even
- 16:45see in her? You're really going to let
- 16:46that girl become your reputation?
- 16:48>> Right.
- 16:53I thought hiding myself would make me
- 16:54invisible.
- 16:57But maybe it just made people feel safe
- 16:59judging me.
- 17:06>> Lena.
- 17:08Hey. Wait.
- 17:09>> Do you need something?
- 17:10>> Yeah. You.
- 17:12Did I do something? [music]
- 17:13>> No.
- 17:14>> Then why have you been avoiding me?
- 17:16>> Maybe you should ask your friends.
- 17:18>> You heard us?
- 17:19>> [music]
- 17:19>> Lena.
- 17:20>> Don't worry, I understand.
- 17:22>> No.
- 17:23You don't. Lena, Damon. Congratulations,
- 17:26you're both through to the next stage,
- 17:28and tomorrow you're traveling together
- 17:29to the regional campus.
- 17:31Looks like you're stuck with me.
- 17:33>> Apparently.
- 17:34>> Wait, tomorrow?
- 17:35>> Apparently.
- 17:36>> That's not a day trip.
- 17:37>> What?
- 17:38>> Look. Travel tonight, competition
- 17:40tomorrow morning, hotel overnight.
- 17:41>> Hotel?
- 17:42>> Yes.
- 17:43>> I can't stay in a hotel.
- 17:44>> Why?
- 17:44>> I have routines. Very complicated ones.
- 17:47>> You're weird.
- 17:48>> Everything okay?
- 17:49>> She's just panicking about the trip.
- 17:51>> You'll survive.
- 17:52>> Easy for you to say.
- 17:53>> Why?
- 17:53>> Because you don't have to spend 24 hours
- 17:55pretending to be someone you're not.
- 17:57I mean, pretending to be a responsible
- 17:59student.
- 18:00>> Right.
- 18:01>> [music]
- 18:02>> That was almost suspicious.
- 18:06>> You're late.
- 18:07>> I'm exactly on time.
- 18:08>> Same thing.
- 18:09>> Seriously?
- 18:10>> What?
- 18:11>> Your bag.
- 18:11>> Problem solved.
- 18:14Still avoiding me?
- 18:15>> I'm looking at the scenery.
- 18:16>> We haven't even left yet.
- 18:18What exactly did you hear yesterday?
- 18:19>> Nothing.
- 18:21>> You're a terrible liar.
- 18:22>> And you're terrible at minding your own
- 18:23business.
- 18:27>> Hi.
- 18:29>> Don't.
- 18:30>> [sighs]
- 18:31>> I didn't say anything.
- 18:34Relax.
- 18:35>> I'm relaxed.
- 18:36>> You look like you're being interrogated.
- 18:38>> Maybe I am.
- 18:39>> Does anyone have snacks?
- 18:40Check Damon's bag. Why is everyone
- 18:42stealing my food?
- 18:45Oh my god.
- 18:46>> Did you just attack me with a protein
- 18:47bar?
- 18:48>> That was not intentional.
- 18:49>> Your food has terrible manners.
- 18:51>> Peace offering.
- 18:52>> Is this one armed?
- 18:54We're arriving in 10 minutes. Remember,
- 18:55your hotel rooms are already assigned.
- 18:58>> Why do you look terrified?
- 18:59>> Because I have a feeling this trip is
- 19:00going to be a disaster.
- 19:02>> Now I'm looking forward to it.
- 19:08>> Um
- 19:09>> Sorry.
- 19:10>> [music]
- 19:10>> Thank you.
- 19:12>> You're welcome.
- 19:14You can hold on.
- 19:16>> I can stand. [music]
- 19:17>> I noticed.
- 19:19You're different when you forget to be
- 19:20awkward.
- 19:22>> What does that [music] mean?
- 19:23>> It means
- 19:25I like that version of you.
- 19:27>> [music]
- 19:28>> You don't even know me.
- 19:29>> Maybe I'm trying to.
- 19:33>> We're here.
- 19:34>> Everyone listen up. Two students per
- 19:36room. Rooms are assigned by the college.
- 19:37>> Please tell me we're together.
- 19:39Obviously.
- 19:40>> Mia Carter, room 214. Lena Carter, room
- 19:42214.
- 19:43>> Yes.
- 19:43>> Damon Blake, room 216.
- 19:46Disappointed?
- 19:47>> Relieved.
- 19:48>> Actually, there's been a room allocation
- 19:49error. Room 214 has a maintenance
- 19:51problem.
- 19:52>> What?
- 19:52>> Mia, you'll move to room 218 with
- 19:53another female student. Lena, you'll
- 19:55take room 214 alone until the issue is
- 19:57resolved. Damon, I need you to help Lena
- 19:59move her luggage upstairs.
- 20:01Come on, trouble.
- 20:04>> You don't have to carry that.
- 20:05>> Clearly, I do.
- 20:06>> I can carry my own luggage.
- 20:08>> Your suitcase weighs more than you do.
- 20:10>> Rude.
- 20:11>> You're unusually nervous.
- 20:12>> I'm not.
- 20:13>> You've said that a lot lately.
- 20:16Wow.
- 20:16>> Don't.
- 20:17>> Since when do you use all that?
- 20:18>> Since always.
- 20:20>> This doesn't look like your usual hair.
- 20:22>> [music]
- 20:22>> Different lighting.
- 20:23>> You're a terrible liar.
- 20:25>> Good thing you're not investigating me.
- 20:27>> Maybe I am.
- 20:28See you tomorrow, [music] partner.
- 20:31>> One night.
- 20:32Just one night without getting caught.
- 20:36>> [gasps]
- 20:37>> Finally.
- 20:48>> [music]
- 20:48>> All day, I become someone nobody
- 20:50notices.
- 20:52At night, I finally get to be me.
- 20:56One night.
- 20:59No pretending. [music]
- 21:06Oh my god.
- 21:07>> Relax.
- 21:08>> You scared me.
- 21:09>> I noticed. What are you doing out here?
- 21:10>> I couldn't [music] sleep.
- 21:12>> At midnight?
- 21:12>> It's not midnight.
- 21:13>> It's 11:47.
- 21:14>> Exactly.
- 21:16>> You're nervous. [music]
- 21:16>> I'm tired.
- 21:17>> You're lying.
- 21:18>> You really need to stop investigating
- 21:20me.
- 21:20>> Maybe you're just interesting.
- 21:22>> I'm going back to my room.
- 21:24>> [music]
- 21:24>> Lena.
- 21:25Good luck tomorrow.
- 21:27>> Thanks.
- 21:28>> Why do I keep wanting to know what she's
- 21:30hiding?
- 21:31>> You two are getting along suspiciously
- 21:33well.
- 21:35We're academic partners.
- 21:36>> Very academic.
- 21:38>> Academic? That's what we're calling it
- 21:40now?
- 21:40>> Don't start.
- 21:41>> We're just saying you've been attached
- 21:42to Lena all day. First the competition,
- 21:45then the road trip, and now you're
- 21:47sitting next to her at dinner.
- 21:48>> Relax.
- 21:49>> We're not judging.
- 21:50>> Actually, everyone back at Westbridge is
- 21:51probably wondering what's going on.
- 21:53>> Maybe you should worry less about me and
- 21:55more about finishing your dinner.
- 21:58>> Yeah.
- 21:59>> [music]
- 21:59>> He's gone.
- 22:00>> [laughter]
- 22:01>> I'm going upstairs. Lena? In a minute.
- 22:08>> [music]
- 22:10>> Sorry.
- 22:11>> You don't have to apologize.
- 22:14What?
- 22:15>> Nothing.
- 22:23>> Sorry.
- 22:24>> Now you don't have [music] to apologize.
- 22:32Finally. Quiet.
- 22:34>> Didn't know you came up here.
- 22:35>> I couldn't sleep.
- 22:37>> Me neither. Why do you care so much
- 22:38about winning tomorrow?
- 22:40>> Because I want to build a life where I
- 22:41don't have to depend on anyone.
- 22:43>> Everyone assumes I already have that.
- 22:45Money doesn't mean you know what you're
- 22:46doing.
- 22:47>> That's probably the first sensible thing
- 22:48you've said.
- 22:49>> Careful. You might accidentally start
- 22:51liking me.
- 22:52>> Don't push your luck.
- 22:54>> I'm going to sleep.
- 22:55Big day tomorrow.
- 22:56>> Good night, Damon. [music]
- 22:57>> Good night, Lena.
- 22:58>> Maybe tomorrow I'll finally prove that I
- 23:00belong here.
- 23:10All day [music] I hide.
- 23:12Tonight
- 23:14I don't want to.
- 23:15Nobody here knows me.
- 23:18Nobody can judge [music] me.
- 23:25Just tonight I'm Lena.
- 23:31>> [sighs]
- 23:33>> Do you mind if I join?
- 23:35>> He doesn't know me. He doesn't know I'm
- 23:37Lena.
- 23:39Sure.
- 23:40>> [music]
- 23:44>> You look familiar.
- 23:45>> [music]
- 23:46>> Do I?
- 23:48>> Yeah.
- 23:50Have we met before?
- 23:51>> [music]
- 23:52>> Nope.
- 23:54>> You're sure?
- 23:56>> Pretty sure.
- 23:59>> You're sure?
- 24:01>> [music]
- 24:01>> I'm sure.
- 24:02>> Because I swear I've seen those eyes
- 24:03before.
- 24:04>> He has no idea it's me.
- 24:07>> What's your name?
- 24:09>> [music]
- 24:09>> Lena.
- 24:11>> Lena.
- 24:12>> For once
- 24:13I don't want to [music] disappear.
- 24:18>> I knew you felt familiar.
- 24:21>> Maybe you just have a good memory.
- 24:24Tomorrow I'll have to become someone
- 24:25else again.
- 24:28Act normal. He doesn't know. He has
- 24:30absolutely no idea.
- 24:32>> Okay. What's with that face?
- 24:35I met someone last night.
- 24:36>> [laughter]
- 24:36>> You okay? Fine.
- 24:38>> Who? I don't know. She was different,
- 24:40beautiful, confident, and somehow
- 24:42familiar.
- 24:44>> So you finally met a girl who can shut
- 24:46you up?
- 24:46>> Almost. There's just something about
- 24:48her.
- 24:49>> He's talking about me, and he doesn't
- 24:51even know he's talking about me. We're
- 24:53not.
- 24:55>> Why does she keep looking at me like she
- 24:56knows something?
- 24:57>> Today isn't about Damon, or Victoria, or
- 25:00anyone [music] else. Today I prove that
- 25:02I belong here. You ready?
- 25:04>> Absolutely.
- 25:05>> Probably.
- 25:07>> Why does something about her feel
- 25:08familiar?
- 25:09>> Good luck today.
- 25:10>> You too. Teams, listen carefully. The
- 25:12final round begins in 5 minutes, and
- 25:14this round is not individual. Your
- 25:16team's combined performance determines
- 25:17who advances.
- 25:18>> Looks like you're stuck with me. Try not
- 25:20to slow me down.
- 25:21>> There she is.
- 25:27>> First team to complete every station and
- 25:29solve the final code wins.
- 25:32>> Got you.
- 25:33>> I had it.
- 25:34>> Sure you did.
- 25:35>> Okay, this is definitely not what I
- 25:37expected from an academic competition.
- 25:39>> Wait, you're actually good at this.
- 25:41>> Maybe you shouldn't underestimate
- 25:42people.
- 25:43>> I'm starting to learn that.
- 25:47>> Don't think about last night.
- 25:49>> [music]
- 25:49>> Not now.
- 25:50>> You okay?
- 25:50>> Fine.
- 25:51Come on.
- 25:56>> Who exactly are you, Lena?
- 25:58You've got it? [music]
- 25:59>> I've got it.
- 26:02>> [screaming]
- 26:02>> Yes!
- 26:03>> [cheering]
- 26:04>> We did it!
- 26:05>> We actually did it!
- 26:08>> [cheering]
- 26:09>> Westbridge College takes first place.
- 26:11Your team advances to the national
- 26:13finals.
- 26:14>> For the first time, people weren't
- 26:16looking at me because of how I looked.
- 26:19>> You know what I like about you?
- 26:21>> This sounds dangerous.
- 26:23>> You never give [music] up.
- 26:28>> Man, you're doing it again.
- 26:31>> Doing what?
- 26:32>> Staring at Lena.
- 26:33>> I wasn't staring.
- 26:35>> You absolutely were.
- 26:36Are you falling for her?
- 26:39>> I don't know when it happened,
- 26:42but I don't think I can pretend I don't
- 26:43care anymore.
- 26:45>> Maybe.
- 26:46>> Maybe?
- 26:48>> Don't make [music] it weird.
- 26:51>> If he ever finds out who I really am,
- 26:54everything changes.
- 26:58>> [cheering]
- 26:59>> So, you're actually serious about her?
- 27:01>> I don't know.
- 27:03>> Come on, Damon. Look at the situation.
- 27:06>> It's complicated. Of course, to him I'm
- 27:09complicated,
- 27:11embarrassing,
- 27:13something he can't explain.
- 27:15I did this to protect myself.
- 27:17I can't start forgetting why.
- 27:19>> But I know one thing.
- 27:21I want to get to know her better.
- 27:23>> Then stop overthinking it.
- 27:28>> Damon.
- 27:29>> What's wrong?
- 27:30>> Am I a problem for you?
- 27:32>> What?
- 27:32>> You said it's complicated.
- 27:34>> Lena, you didn't hear the whole
- 27:35>> No.
- 27:36I think I heard enough.
- 27:38>> You really didn't.
- 27:39>> Then tell me, what exactly is so
- 27:40complicated about me?
- 27:42>> It's not you.
- 27:44>> Then what is it?
- 27:45>> I'm trying to figure out why I care
- 27:47about you this much.
- 27:48>> [music]
- 27:51>> And I'm not running from it.
- 27:54>> Then why does this feel even more
- 27:55dangerous than hiding? [music]
- 27:58>> Everyone, change of plans. The transport
- 28:00has broken down. We're staying here
- 28:01tonight. The replacement bus won't
- 28:03arrive until tomorrow morning.
- 28:04>> Tonight? Again?
- 28:06>> And there's another problem. The hotel
- 28:07has had a water pipe burst on the second
- 28:09floor.
- 28:10>> Is that supposed to happen?
- 28:14>> No. No, no, no.
- 28:16>> Lena.
- 28:16>> Don't look.
- 28:17>> Put this on.
- 28:18>> Damon, I can't.
- 28:19>> Lena, seriously.
- 28:21There.
- 28:22Crisis avoided.
- 28:23>> If only that were the crisis.
- 28:25>> Second floor is closed.
- 28:31Here.
- 28:32>> That's not mine.
- 28:33>> It literally came out of your bag.
- 28:35>> Lena, what are you doing?
- 28:36>> Nothing.
- 28:41>> Wait.
- 28:42Your glasses are crooked.
- 28:43>> Don't.
- 28:46>> Those eyes.
- 28:48>> He's going to know. Come on, they're
- 28:50moving everyone to the conference room.
- 28:54>> Why does she remind me of her?
- 28:56>> Everyone aboard, we leave in 2 minutes.
- 28:582 days, 2 identities, 1 kiss I can't
- 29:01stop thinking about.
- 29:03>> this.
- 29:04>> Oh.
- 29:04>> Funny thing though, I don't remember
- 29:05seeing you with it before.
- 29:07>> Maybe you weren't paying attention.
- 29:08>> Maybe. I'm starting to think I should
- 29:09pay more attention.
- 29:10>> Lena, we're leaving.
- 29:12>> Hey, about yesterday. I meant what
- 29:14[music] I said, that I want to get to
- 29:15know you better.
- 29:16>> Even after everything?
- 29:17>> Which part? Especially after everything.
- 29:20>> He wants to know me.
- 29:21>> [music]
- 29:21>> He just doesn't know which me.
- 29:25>> That's them! They won regionals!
- 29:27>> I've spent so long trying not to be
- 29:29noticed.
- 29:29>> You're officially a Westbridge star.
- 29:31>> Please don't say that.
- 29:32>> Lena, your individual score was the
- 29:34highest on the team. The faculty wants
- 29:35you to represent Westbridge in the
- 29:37national final.
- 29:38>> Really?
- 29:38>> Really. Told you you belonged here.
- 29:40>> You actually remembered that?
- 29:42>> I remember more than you think. So,
- 29:44national finals?
- 29:45>> Looks like it.
- 29:45>> Guess you're stuck with me again.
- 29:46>> Try to keep up.
- 29:51Who keeps sending these?
- 29:55>> [music]
- 29:59>> Huh?
- 30:00But you're still hiding from yourself.
- 30:03Who are you?
- 30:05Whoever this is,
- 30:07they know too much. [music]
- 30:13One day, [music] sweetheart.
- 30:19Maybe I don't even remember what being
- 30:21myself feels like.
- 30:24>> Why does that girl keep showing up in my
- 30:25head?
- 30:28>> [music]
- 30:29>> Is one of these like Lena or Delilah?
- 30:31>> One, the girl at the pool, and Lena.
- 30:34No,
- 30:35>> [music]
- 30:35>> that's impossible.
- 30:37But those eyes.
- 30:41>> [gasps]
- 30:42>> High praise.
- 30:44Why do I feel like I'm falling for two
- 30:46girls who might be the same girl?
- 30:51>> [music]
- 30:56>> Damon?
- 30:57>> Hey.
- 30:58>> What's wrong with you lately?
- 30:59>> Nothing.
- 31:01>> You've been distracted for days.
- 31:03>> I met someone.
- 31:05>> Someone?
- 31:06>> It's weird. She reminds me of someone
- 31:08else.
- 31:09>> Who?
- 31:10>> Lena.
- 31:11>> Lena reminds you of her?
- 31:14>> I can't explain it.
- 31:16>> Maybe there is something about Lena that
- 31:18nobody knows.
- 31:22There's something she's hiding.
- 31:27>> Morning.
- 31:28>> Morning.
- 31:29>> Let me. [music]
- 31:31>> I can carry a book.
- 31:32>> I know.
- 31:35>> He's looking at her differently.
- 31:42>> [sighs]
- 31:46[music]
- 31:47>> Let's see who you really are.
- 31:54Damon says she reminds him of Lena.
- 32:04That gesture. [music]
- 32:08No way.
- 32:14>> [music]
- 32:17>> Let's find out what you're hiding.
- 32:21>> Lena forgot this.
- 32:27>> You don't even know me.
- 32:29>> That sounds exactly like her.
- 32:35No.
- 32:40What if they're not two different girls?
- 32:46What if it's been Lena all along?
- 32:50>> Okay, let's see what else I can find.
- 32:56>> [music]
- 32:57>> Same eyes, same hair,
- 33:00same face.
- 33:02>> [music]
- 33:04>> It is you.
- 33:08The ugly little nobody is the girl Damon
- 33:11kissed.
- 33:12>> [music]
- 33:14>> Let's see how long you can keep
- 33:15pretending.
- 33:20You're seriously wearing that?
- 33:22>> It's comfortable.
- 33:23>> [sighs]
- 33:23>> Of course it is.
- 33:29>> It's her.
- 33:33I've been looking for you.
- 33:35>> You found me.
- 33:37>> Why do I feel like I've known you much
- 33:39longer than I actually have?
- 33:43It's impossible.
- 33:45But you're Lena.
- 33:47So,
- 33:49what's your name?
- 33:51>> Lena.
- 33:52>> Lena?
- 33:54>> That's what I said. [music]
- 33:56>> Do you go to Westbridge?
- 33:58>> Yes.
- 33:59>> I know someone named Lena Carter.
- 34:01>> Maybe you do.
- 34:03>> Are you Lena Carter?
- 34:05>> Why?
- 34:06>> Because you look exactly like her.
- 34:09>> Maybe people can look alike.
- 34:12>> She even talks like her.
- 34:13>> Now this is going to be interesting.
- 34:16[music]
- 34:16>> You know what's strange?
- 34:18>> What?
- 34:18>> I feel like I've had this conversation
- 34:20with you before.
- 34:21>> Maybe you're remembering someone else.
- 34:23>> No. She makes jokes when she's nervous.
- 34:25She pretends she doesn't care what
- 34:26people think.
- 34:28And she always challenges me.
- 34:30>> She sounds difficult.
- 34:32>> She is.
- 34:33And I really like [music] her.
- 34:35That's why this is confusing.
- 34:37>> What is?
- 34:38>> You feel exactly like her.
- 34:45>> Tonight, I'm finally going to find out
- 34:48how far this little game goes.
- 34:52>> [music]
- 34:57>> Got you.
- 35:02Is someone there?
- 35:08Now I know exactly who you are.
- 35:12Back to normal.
- 35:20So it really is you.
- 35:26Damon has no idea.
- 35:30This changes everything.
- 35:36Now I decide what happens next.
- 35:42Victoria, going somewhere? Back to the
- 35:45dance. Funny, I thought you might be
- 35:47going somewhere else.
- 35:52Where did you get that?
- 35:53>> [music]
- 35:53>> I followed you. Please don't tell
- 35:55anyone. Why not? Because you don't
- 35:57understand. I understand perfectly.
- 36:01And Damon doesn't know. That's what
- 36:03makes this so useful.
- 36:05Come find me tomorrow. We need to talk.
- 36:07[music]
- 36:09She knows.
- 36:11You came. Delete the video. That's not
- 36:14going to happen. One message from me and
- 36:17everyone at Westbridge sees this. Why
- 36:19are you doing this? Because you lied to
- 36:21everyone. I wasn't hurting anyone.
- 36:23You've been playing two people while
- 36:24Damon falls for both.
- 36:25>> [music]
- 36:25>> Leave Damon out of this.
- 36:27Then stay away from him. And if I don't,
- 36:30everyone gets to see who you really are.
- 36:35I finally found someone who saw me, and
- 36:38now [music] I have to lose him.
- 36:41>> There you are. I've been looking for
- 36:43you.
- 36:44Are you okay?
- 36:45>> I'm fine.
- 36:46>> You don't look fine.
- 36:48>> [sighs]
- 36:48>> I think we should stop hanging out.
- 36:50>> What?
- 36:51>> You heard me.
- 36:52>> Did I do something?
- 36:53>> No.
- 36:54>> Then why?
- 36:55>> Because we're not right for each other.
- 36:58>> You don't get to decide that for both of
- 36:59us.
- 37:00>> If I tell him she exposes me. If I stay,
- 37:03I lose him anyway.
- 37:04>> Lena, wait.
- 37:07Yesterday she wanted me close. Today she
- 37:10can't even look at me.
- 37:12She didn't even tell me why.
- 37:19Two girls,
- 37:20one feeling,
- 37:22>> [music]
- 37:22>> and now I've lost both.
- 37:25You okay?
- 37:26>> Yeah.
- 37:26>> You're terrible at pretending you're
- 37:27fine.
- 37:29>> She doesn't want me around.
- 37:30>> Did she actually say that?
- 37:32>> Yeah.
- 37:33So I'll leave her alone.
- 37:38But why does every part of me think
- 37:39she's hiding something?
- 37:41>> Who are you?
- 37:44>> Still thinking about those messages?
- 37:46>> How do you know about them?
- 37:49Mom?
- 37:50>> Yes, it was me.
- 37:52>> You've been texting me?
- 37:54>> I have.
- 37:56>> Why?
- 37:56>> [music]
- 37:57>> Because I know how hard you're trying to
- 37:58disappear.
- 38:00And I don't want my daughter to spend
- 38:01her life hiding from being seen.
- 38:04>> My mother knew all along.
- 38:08>> You are so much more than what you see
- 38:09in that mirror.
- 38:11>> Why would you do that to me?
- 38:12>> Because I've watched you disappear. I
- 38:14was protecting myself. I know, but
- 38:17protection can become a prison. I don't
- 38:19want you to stop hiding because you're
- 38:20beautiful underneath. I want you to stop
- 38:22believing that the girl underneath isn't
- 38:24worthy of being seen.
- 38:25>> [snorts]
- 38:25>> What if people hurt me again?
- 38:28>> Then you learn that their cruelty
- 38:29doesn't decide your worth.
- 38:30>> So, you weren't trying to expose me?
- 38:32>> Never.
- 38:33I was trying to help you find yourself.
- 38:35>> Maybe hiding saved me once,
- 38:38but maybe it isn't supposed to save me
- 38:40forever.
- 38:40>> [music]
- 38:43>> Everyone keeps wondering who the
- 38:44beautiful girl at the dance was.
- 38:48>> Victoria, don't.
- 38:50>> Meet the real Lena Carter.
- 38:53>> That's Lena?
- 38:54>> She's been pretending this whole time?
- 38:57>> I can explain.
- 38:58>> Explain what?
- 38:59>> [music]
- 38:59>> That you invented an ugly version of
- 39:01yourself so nobody would notice you?
- 39:09>> Lena?
- 39:11Lena.
- 39:12It was you?
- 39:14>> Damon.
- 39:14>> The girl at the hotel?
- 39:16The girl at the dance?
- 39:18It was you.
- 39:19>> Yes.
- 39:21>> Why didn't you tell me?
- 39:22>> [music]
- 39:22>> Because I was scared.
- 39:24>> Scared of me?
- 39:25>> No.
- 39:27Scared of what happens when people
- 39:28really see you.
- 39:29>> I was falling for you before I even
- 39:31knew.
- 39:33>> [music]
- 39:33>> And then I met the other you.
- 39:35And I felt exactly the same.
- 39:37>> They're both me.
- 39:40>> I know. [music]
- 39:41>> When I was younger, people only saw how
- 39:43I looked. I learned very quickly that
- 39:45being noticed could hurt. So, I changed
- 39:47everything. The clothes, my hair, the
- 39:50glasses. I made myself invisible.
- 39:53>> And you thought that would protect you?
- 39:54>> It did at first. No boys,
- 39:56>> [music]
- 39:57>> no attention,
- 39:58no one expecting me to be something. I
- 40:00could just study, graduate, build a
- 40:02life,
- 40:03and never have to be afraid of being
- 40:04hurt again.
- 40:05>> But you were still hiding.
- 40:07>> I know.
- 40:09I just didn't know how to stop.
- 40:12I need a moment alone.
- 40:13>> Okay.
- 40:21>> So,
- 40:22>> [music]
- 40:22>> I heard you're not exactly who everyone
- 40:24thought you were.
- 40:25Are you angry?
- 40:27Why would I be angry?
- 40:29Because I lied to you.
- 40:31You didn't lie about being my friend.
- 40:34>> [music]
- 40:34>> You just hid part of yourself.
- 40:38>> [music]
- 40:40>> You do?
- 40:41Damon.
- 40:43>> Is she okay?
- 40:44>> She needs time.
- 40:46>> I don't understand why she thought she
- 40:47had to become someone else.
- 40:49>> She didn't become someone else.
- 40:52She was trying to survive being seen.
- 40:54>> [music]
- 40:54>> She told me people used to judge her,
- 40:56target her, and make her feel like being
- 40:58noticed was dangerous.
- 41:00>> [music]
- 41:00>> So, she decided that if nobody noticed
- 41:02her,
- 41:03nobody could hurt her.
- 41:05>> She wasn't trying to fool me.
- 41:07>> No.
- 41:09>> She was trying to protect herself.
- 41:12>> I don't want to disappear anymore.
- 41:15>> [music]
- 41:21>> This is still me.
- 41:23>> [music]
- 41:27>> Lena.
- 41:28>> Hi.
- 41:32>> [music]
- 41:32>> I thought being seen meant giving people
- 41:34the power to hurt me.
- 41:36Maybe being seen could also mean letting
- 41:38people finally know me.
- 41:41>> Welcome to the National Academic
- 41:43Challenge final.
- 41:44>> Ready?
- 41:45>> [music]
- 41:46>> More than I've ever been.
- 41:48>> You know you don't have to prove
- 41:49anything to anyone.
- 41:50>> I'm not here to prove who I am.
- 41:52I'm here to win.
- 41:54>> [music]
- 42:01>> I've got it.
- 42:07>> Westbridge has taken the lead.
- 42:11Westbridge, you have 60 seconds.
- 42:15>> You see it?
- 42:16>> Almost.
- 42:17I've got [music] it.
- 42:20>> Correct. Lena, would you like to say
- 42:22something?
- 42:24>> [cheering]
- 42:26>> For a long time, I thought being
- 42:28invisible was the safest way to live.
- 42:30I thought if nobody saw the real me,
- 42:33nobody could hurt me.
- 42:35>> [music]
- 42:35>> But I learned that hiding doesn't make
- 42:37you stronger.
- 42:38It just makes you disappear.
- 42:42>> Victoria, we need to talk. Give me the
- 42:44phone.
- 42:46>> I was only showing everyone the truth.
- 42:48>> You recorded another student without her
- 42:49permission. [music]
- 42:51Then you used that recording to publicly
- 42:52humiliate her.
- 42:54>> So, what happens now?
- 42:55>> You are removed [music] from the
- 42:56Westbridge competition team, and the
- 42:58incident will be formally reported to
- 42:59the college.
- 43:03>> [music]
- 43:06>> I thought winning meant making everyone
- 43:08else lose.
- 43:11>> Westbridge College are your national
- 43:13champions.
- 43:14>> [screaming]
- 43:15>> We did it.
- 43:16We actually did it.
- 43:19>> Congratulations.
- 43:21>> You, too.
- 43:22>> No.
- 43:23This one is yours.
- 43:25You were incredible.
- 43:27>> I almost didn't come back.
- 43:30>> I'm really glad you did.
- 43:38There's something I need to tell you.
- 43:40>> [music]
- 43:41>> I thought I had fallen for two different
- 43:42girls,
- 43:43but I was wrong.
- 43:45I fell for the girl who challenged me.
- 43:48The girl who made laugh.
- 43:49The girl who beat me at every puzzle and
- 43:51somehow still made me want to try
- 43:52harder.
- 43:54>> Even when I was pretending to be someone
- 43:55else?
- 43:56>> You weren't someone else.
- 43:58You were always you.
- 43:59>> I was so scared you'd stop liking me
- 44:01when you knew everything.
- 44:03>> I already knew [music] everything.
- 44:05And I still fell for you.
- 44:13>> You know, everyone's still talking about
- 44:15you.
- 44:16>> Let them.
- 44:19>> Morning, Lena.
- 44:21>> Morning.
- 44:24I spent years believing that if nobody
- 44:26saw me,
- 44:27nobody could hurt me.
- 44:29But hiding didn't make me safe.
- 44:32It only made me disappear.
- 44:35>> [music]
- 44:35>> So, I stopped disappearing.
