Fifty Shades Darker.







PLOT

While sleeping, Christian Grey(Jamie Dornan), has nightmares about the abuse he encountered while growing up. At the Seattle Independent Publishing, Editor; Jack Hyde(Eric Johnson) appears to display more than a passive interest on Anastasia "Ana" Steele(Dakota Johnson), who has begun her new job as his assistant. Later that day, she appears at Jose Rodriguez's (Victor Rasuk) art gallery show and is startled to find Christian there.
Reluctantly she agrees to have dinner with him and Christian in an attempt to woo her back is met with resistance from her as she reminds him of his desire to inflict pains. He insists that he has changed and she agrees to his request when he promises he would agree to Ana's terms of no rules and no punishments if they would resume their relationship.

A couple of days after, Ana is distracted by a lady who has an almost similar resemblance to her. While out with Jack at a local bar. Christian sees Ana's boss flirting with her in the bar. He quickly departs with Ana and he warns Ana of Jack's undisguised intentions. Christian also tells Ana that his own company has been looking to take-over control and ownership of SIP, where Ana works.

Ana observes the woman with similar resemblance to her staring at her from a distance while out for breakfast with Christian. She goes on to enquire about her identity from Christian and although he delays his answer, he discloses to her that she is one of his former submissives, Leila Williams(Bella Heathcote). He tells her that after their contract had ended, she wanted more to their relationship but he declined. She would go on to marry another man and after her husband dies, she suffers mental breakdown and has been stalking Ana and Christian for some time.

Later, Christian invites Ana to a masquerade ball at Christian's adoptive parent's house. Christian takes Ana to Esclava, a beauty salon, to get her prepared for the ball. There, she sees Elena Lincoln(Kim Basinger), Christian's former dominant, who introduced him to the BDSM lifestyle. Ana is furious that he would take her there and is shocked to find out that he co-owns the salon with Elena. At the ball, Ana learns that Christian had been expelled from various schools for fighting. She also learns that Christian's mother was a prostitute addicted to crack. He reveals that his birth mother had committed suicide and he was taken to a hospital, where Grace Trevelyan Grey(Marcia Gray Harden) took care of him and later adopted him. Later, Ana is accosted by Elena who demands that she breaks up with Christian. Ana refuses Elena's warnings and tells her to stop meddling in their relationship. When they arrive home, they discover Ana's car had been vandalized.

A few days later, when the offices close at SIP, Jack tries to seduce Ana while she is in the office. Ana manages to escape from the office leaving Jack behind. When Christian finds out about this he arranges to have Jack dismissed from SIP. He also asks her to move in with him and she agrees. The next day, Ana gets Jack's now vacant position on a temporary basis as an acting editor for SIP.

Ana and Christian go to her apartment to retrieve her belongings. There, Leila appears and threatens her with a gun. When she shoots a wall behind Ana, Christian and Jason Taylor(Max Martini) appear and Christian subdues Leila. Ana, seeing that Christian needs to be satisfied by his controlling and dominant personality, walks out and doesn't return home until later at night. Christian is furious at her and she tries to calm him, saying that she needs time. Christian, who does not want to lose Ana, drops down to his knees and turns to a submissive. When she manages to bring him back, they kiss and have sex. During that night, Ana hears Christian having a nightmare and wakes him. He asks her to marry him and she says she needs time to consider this.

The day afterwards, Christian's helicopter malfunctions while he is piloting it out of town on his way to a business function. This causes Christian to crash-land in a forest. Ana and Christian's family wait for more news regarding Christian. When Christian unexpectedly arrives, Ana is overjoyed to see him safe, and there she realizes the depth of her feelings for Christian. She accepts his marriage proposal.

Christian and Ana announce their engagement at Christian's birthday party much to Elena's fury. Ana basking in the euphoria, is surprised to see Elena. She calls Ana a gold digger, causing Ana to angrily throw her drink at Elena and warns her to stop trespassing in their relationship. Christian overhears the conversation and dismissively tells Elena that she taught him how to fuck and not how to love. Grace slaps Elena after she overhears the conversation and informs her to exit her house. Christian then cuts all ties with Elena. Later he proposes to Ana with a ring at the boathouse and she accepts.
