His friend Jeffrey warns him that the Edwards family is slipping away—his dad is about to bring home a new stepmother and stepsister, and Jeffrey calls them gold diggers, both of them. Vincent insists no one is taking his place in this family.

Meanwhile, Fiona is stressed about her mom's wedding. Her boyfriend Thomas shows up with a drink to help her relax—but something's wrong with it.

Episode 2

Fiona wakes up somewhere she doesn't recognize, with a stranger looming over her. She demands to know who he is and tells him to get away. He says he wants to be her first, and when she begs Thomas to take her home, the man reveals the truth: Thomas is the one who sent her here. She's terrified, fighting back as hard as she can.

The night spirals into chaos. She bites him. She pleads. And the man she's fighting won't let her go. Neither of them knows yet just how tangled their lives are about to become.

Episode 3

Vincent confronts the man who took Fiona—and he's furious. He makes it clear there are only two options: take the money and walk away, or get beaten and then walk away. The man taunts him, but Vincent doesn't back down. A boxing match is proposed to settle it.

Vincent's temper flares. He says he'll take her name, her price, whatever it takes. The confrontation ends with threats and a challenge in the ring, and Vincent walks away with a warning: take him down. The lines between protector and predator are already blurring, and neither Vincent nor Fiona seems ready for what comes next.

Episode 4

The tension between Vincent and the man who hurt Fiona comes to a head. Vincent warns him off, and the man backs down—but not before making it clear he thinks Vincent is in over his head.

Vincent stakes his claim: she's mine. The man calls him out, saying Vincent doesn't even know who he's dealing with. But Vincent doesn't flinch. He tells the man to take a deep breath and listen, because this isn't a game anymore.

The confrontation ends with Vincent standing his ground, and the man retreating. Whatever Vincent is planning, he's not backing away from Fiona—even if he still believes the worst about her.

Episode 5

Vincent's plans take a darker turn. He tells someone to follow his lead and work with him—then the scene shifts into something more intimate, with whispered encouragement filling the room.

But it's a setup. Vincent is putting on a show, and he wants an audience. He offers a hotel room key to someone, telling them they can watch from the front row. The cruelty is deliberate: he's using Fiona to humiliate someone, and he doesn't care who gets hurt in the process.

Fiona, meanwhile, is begging to be let go, offering anything to escape. Vincent's response is cold and cryptic—all he wants, he says, is something only she can give.

Episode 6

Vincent pulls Fiona into another performance. He tells her to follow his lead and work with him, and the two of them put on a show for whoever is watching—loud, convincing, designed to sell a lie.

When it's over, the threat shifts. Someone warns that if the girl isn't brought tomorrow, there will be consequences. Vincent and Fiona make their escape, and someone cheers him on, calling it a job well done.

But Fiona is shaken. She's being used as a pawn in a game she never agreed to play, and Vincent's grip on her is tightening—whether she likes it or not.

Episode 7

A bucket of cold water brings everything into focus. Vincent is told to clear his mind, and the tone shifts toward the wedding—the day everything is supposed to come together.

Vincent is told to be there tomorrow at 3:00 p.m. for the wedding. Whatever Vincent is up to, they don't care—they just want him present. The command is simple, but the weight behind it is heavy.

Vincent is being pulled back into the family fold just as his plans with Fiona are reaching a dangerous point. The wedding is coming, and with it, a collision he can't avoid.

Episode 8

Jeffrey greets Vincent and immediately starts teasing him about the girl from last night—asking if he's missing her, reliving the memory. Vincent snaps at him to shut up, insisting he never even touched her. It was all a show, he says, just to piss off the man who hurt her.

Then Vincent pivots. He wants Jeffrey to look into the mother-daughter duo. Jeffrey calls the stepmother a hyena hunting for a rich husband, and Vincent's father her latest prey. Vincent says he's the hunter now.

Jeffrey proposes a plan: seduce the daughter, make her fall for him, then convince everyone she came onto him first and kick them both to the curb. Vincent calls it sick but creative.

Episode 9

Fiona finally arrives at the wedding, and the moment she and Vincent lock eyes, everything changes. Someone gushes about how beautiful she looks, joking about a hot hookup turning into siblings overnight—an epic plot twist.

Vincent's father introduces them: Vincent, meet your new stepsister, Fiona. The two of them pretend it's the first time they've met. Vincent plays the part of the doting big brother, promising to take excellent care of her.

Then he pulls her aside. The mask drops. He accuses her of knowing exactly who he was last night—of targeting him because he's the Edwards heir. Fiona is stunned, and the confrontation is only beginning.

Episode 10

Vincent lays it all out: he thinks Fiona and her mother are gold diggers after the family fortune, and that her damsel-in-distress act was all a setup to seduce him. Fiona fires back—she was drugged and nearly assaulted, and she didn't even know he was her stepbrother until today.

Vincent threatens to make her life a living hell. Fiona refuses to be intimidated, telling him he doesn't know her or her mother. Then Thomas shows up, begging for another chance. Fiona tears into him for selling her to pay off his gambling debts.

Vincent steps in, offering Thomas 200K to keep quiet about last night and protect the family's reputation. Thomas's demand makes it clear the real game is only getting started.
