00:00No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! My stuff! Where are you taking it? What's going on here? What do you think you're doing?
00:18Who even are you?
00:20The owner of the property you owe six months rent on. We're done waiting. There's nothing left to do.
00:26No, no, no, no, please! I'm begging you! Don't kick me out right now!
00:32Look, look, I've got this, okay? It's all I have, please! Just let me stay!
00:40Nope, this isn't even a fourth of what you owe. The decision is final. No way around it.
00:47Mom, I'm so glad you're here. I was so scared.
00:50Sweetie, it's over now. You okay?
00:56Is it true we can't leave here anymore? What are we gonna do?
01:01Sweetheart, you don't need to worry. I promise I'll find a job soon and we'll get the rent paid.
01:08It's my fault, isn't it? Because you spent all the money on me.
01:12No! Of course not, darling. None of this is on you.
01:17Everything would be better if I wasn't here. Dad wouldn't have left if I...
01:21Hey, hey, hey, hey, listen. Allie, okay? You're my biggest blessing. You're the most important thing I've got.
01:29And I'll do whatever it takes to make things better. You hear me? Okay?
01:34Hey. Hey. Stop. We'll do this another day. Everyone clear out.
01:48You. Meet me at this address. Might be a way to fix this after all. Got a job for you. Have a good day.
01:56Come on, sweetie. Let's get you to your room.
02:04You hungry? I brought cereal.
02:09What the hell did you do? Are you blind?
02:15You ruined my new shoes.
02:18Ugh.
02:18Miss, I'm so sorry. I didn't see you when I...
02:23Do you have any idea how much this costs?
02:25If you're a designer, you couldn't afford them even if you worked your whole pathetic life.
02:31I understand. And again, I'm really sorry. But if you'll let me, I can clean them...
02:36I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
02:38Apologies, don't cut it. Do you even know who you're messing with?
02:43What's all this yelling about?
02:44This useless woman ruined the shoes you just got me, babe.
02:49You need to fire her, please.
02:51Fire her?
02:53Iris, Jacqueline isn't going anywhere. It was an accident.
02:57Don't you think you're overdoing the drama here?
02:59But no bucks. Respect my call.
03:02Everyone, back to work. Nothing happened here.
03:05Damn, girl. You've got one heck of a guardian angel, because that woman always gets her way.
03:21Who even is she? Never seen her around the office before.
03:24Her?
03:25Uh-huh.
03:25I mean, well, she's just... the boss's girl.
03:29Looks like she owns the place, but between us?
03:32She came from the same dirt, but dead.
03:36Just here to Jack work with Adam.
03:38His girlfriend.
03:40Anyways, my name is Marianne, but you can call me Mary.
03:45Jacqueline, nice to meet you.
03:46Awesome, Jackie. Let's get to it. Almost cuckold time. Two hands are better than one, right?
03:51Thanks. Yeah.
03:52What the heck was that?
04:08You humiliated me in front of everyone. Adam, I'm your girlfriend. You're supposed to have my back.
04:12And she's my employee. She was doing her job. You had no right to treat her like that.
04:18Since when do you side with the help?
04:20I'm just saying, we gotta be a little more understanding.
04:25We don't know what kind of problems Jacqueline's dealing with at home to make her work even harder, you know?
04:30Oh, by the way, if you don't mind.
04:41It's weird how much you suck up, you know?
04:44Mary.
04:48Have you seen Jacqueline?
04:51Jackie?
04:52Man, she's long gone by now.
04:55Grabbed her stuff and took off.
04:56Said she had some real important business to handle.
04:59Why?
05:00She's in trouble?
05:01Nah.
05:02Of course not.
05:04Oh, and here's your pay.
05:06Thanks a lot.
05:08Oh, thank you.
05:09Anyways, it's getting late, and I gotta run.
05:12See you tomorrow.
05:17So?
05:18How's Ali?
05:20What do you see, Doc?
05:23The treatment isn't working like it should.
05:26What?
05:29In cases like this, we usually pair the treatment with rehab to get better results.
05:34Luckily, Ali's damage is reversible.
05:37Look.
05:42Here's the info on the new treatment.
05:46That's way too expensive.
05:48I don't have that kind of money right now.
05:50I just...
05:50I just got a job.
05:52I haven't even been paid yet.
05:53Please, Doc.
05:54There's gotta be another way.
05:56You must know...
05:57I don't know...
05:59A...
05:59A cheaper option?
06:02Ma'am, it's your call.
06:05The longer you wait on therapy, the more her recovery will take.
06:09That's all I can do.
06:11I'll give you a minute.
06:12Excuse me.
06:13What am I gonna do now?
06:22Anything for my girl.
06:29Please.
06:30Please help me.
06:32I've thought it through and this is the only way.
06:35Help me out here.
06:36You know I wouldn't ask if...
06:38If I didn't need it.
06:39Listen, Jackie.
06:41Your car's an old model.
06:42I doubt you'll get much for it.
06:44Plus, if you pawn it, how will you get Ali around?
06:48Have you thought about that?
06:49I'm doing all this for her.
06:51I promise I'll get the car back soon, okay?
06:54Look.
06:55I've got all the papers right here.
06:57Everything's in order.
06:59Come on.
06:59Cut me some slack for old time's sake.
07:02All right, fine.
07:03Only because I know your situation.
07:06But I'm not responsible if you miss any payments.
07:08Then you're on your own.
07:10Yeah.
07:11Yeah, yeah, yeah.
07:12Don't worry.
07:13I'll handle it.
07:21Oh, Jackie.
07:22You really are a fighter, Mom.
07:24Now I can finally pay for my girl's therapy.
07:27Thanks, Grandus.
07:28See ya.
07:28Later.
07:29Later.
07:33Mom, the sun is burning me.
07:36Easy, sweetie.
07:36We're almost there, just a little longer.
07:39Jacqueline?
07:40What are you doing here?
07:48Jacqueline?
07:49What's going on?
07:50Where are you headed?
07:51It's just, uh...
07:52Mommy's taking me to therapy.
07:55Yeah, that's right.
07:56Ali's starting a new treatment,
07:58and the physical therapist is just up ahead.
08:00One the doctor recommended.
08:01But it's still a long walk,
08:03and the sun's blazing.
08:05Where's your car?
08:07I'll explain later.
08:08Right now, I just gotta get her to therapy,
08:10so if you'll excuse us...
08:11No, please.
08:12Let me.
08:13I'll take you.
08:14No.
08:15No, no, no, no, no.
08:15Don't worry about it.
08:17You've already done so much for us.
08:19No.
08:20Please, let me.
08:21Besides, you look exhausted.
08:24Yeah, Mom.
08:24I want him to take us.
08:25All right.
08:29Here, miss.
08:30Let me help.
08:31Careful, please.
08:33That's it, sweetie.
08:34Lean on me.
08:35Hold tight there.
08:37There.
08:39Thanks again for the ride.
08:41We wouldn't have made it without you.
08:43Don't mention it, Jacqueline.
08:45I had no idea you were going through so much.
08:50Yeah, it's been rough,
08:52but giving up's never been an option.
08:55But what about her dad?
09:04He bailed when he found out what we were up against.
09:08Haven't heard from him since.
09:10I've been scraping by paying for treatments,
09:13because I won't give up hope that Allie will walk again one day.
09:21Here.
09:21This was her before we even knew what was wrong.
09:27He was a coward.
09:29How could he walk away from something so fragile?
09:32I don't get it either.
09:34You know, nobody prepares you to be a mom,
09:37but it's the purest love you'll ever feel.
09:42And even though I was scared at first,
09:44seeing her smile makes me realize I'm doing okay.
09:48I don't care if I end up with nothing.
09:51As long as she's alright.
09:53Mommy, come here!
09:54Yes, sweetie.
09:55Excuse me.
09:56Go ahead.
09:57Hey, you good?
10:01How are you feeling?
10:02Babe, where are you?
10:07I was wondering if we were seeing each other tonight.
10:09I'm swamped right now.
10:10Let's do it later.
10:16You hung up on me.
10:18Yeah, right there.
10:27Perfect.
10:31You've been so kind to Adam.
10:33Come on.
10:34When are you going to stop calling me for like that?
10:36After all this,
10:37I think I've earned a little trust, right?
10:40You're right.
10:41The therapy sessions must have worn Allie out.
10:44She fell asleep.
10:45Thanks for helping me with her.
10:46She's really brave.
10:49Must get that from you.
10:51Well,
10:52I should get going.
10:54You need your rest, too.
10:59Adam, wait.
11:01You forgot this.
11:02Yeah.
11:06Jesus must really regret letting go a woman as beautiful as you.
11:14Good night, Jacqueline.
11:16Good night, Adam.
11:27Darling, you ready?
11:31Allie, I thought you'd finish breakfast already.
11:34Sweetheart, I'm running super late for work and I can't get in trouble.
11:38I already told you.
11:40Unless then.
11:40Okay.
11:44Let me see what you're up to.
11:46It's for Adam.
11:47He wears a gay because he's always helping us.
11:51Wow.
11:52It's beautiful.
11:53I'm sure you'll love it.
11:55Actually, why don't you give it to him yourself?
11:58I bet he'd love to see you.
12:00Ready?
12:01Let's go.
12:01Grace is off.
12:07There.
12:08Careful.
12:10This way.
12:13Look.
12:14There he is.
12:15Allie, what a surprise.
12:17To what do I owe this visit?
12:18Today, someone wanted to tag along because she had something special for you.
12:23Right, sweetie?
12:24Really?
12:25It's for you, our superhero.
12:29Wow.
12:30It's amazing.
12:32What the hell?
12:35Actually, I've got something for you, too.
12:44So this is why you were so busy.
12:49There you go.
12:50Are those my car keys?
12:56Yep.
12:57It's all paid off.
12:58The only thing you've got to worry about now is getting Allie to therapy on time.
13:02What?
13:03No.
13:04No, no, no, no, no.
13:05I can't accept this.
13:06It's too much.
13:07Hey.
13:07Believe me.
13:08I'm doing this from the heart.
13:10When I was a kid, I wish someone had helped my mom like this when she was raising me alone.
13:17I didn't know.
13:19You're an incredible woman.
13:21Strong, admirable, and an amazing mom.
13:25It's an honor to help even a little.
13:30Now, how about I show you another spot?
13:33Want to come?
13:37Yeah.
13:37Don't think this is over.
13:46No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
14:03What's your problem?
14:05What are you doing?
14:06I haven't done anything to you.
14:08Oh, please, stop being innocent.
14:10You think I don't see how you're playing Adam with your sob story.
14:14What?
14:15What are you talking about?
14:16Oh, I forgot your drawing.
14:19I want to put it somewhere special.
14:20Let's go grab it.
14:25How you're trying to pun off that brat who, on top of everything, turned out real messed up.
14:31Listen up.
14:31I've fought for years to get here.
14:35I won't let a woman like you take Adam and everything he can give me away from me.
14:40You hear me?
14:41You've got no right to talk about Allie like that.
14:46Say whatever you want about me, but not my daughter.
14:50I don't care if I get fired from this job as long as I stand up for her.
14:54So that's why you're with me.
14:56For what you can get?
14:58Baby, no.
15:00What you heard was...
15:01It was the truth.
15:02I also heard how you talked about her.
15:04About an innocent little girl.
15:06How could you go after her, Iris?
15:09So you're on her side now.
15:11You're gonna dub me for some single mom?
15:13Yeah.
15:15That's what I am.
15:16And I'll never be ashamed of it.
15:19That doesn't make me less of a person.
15:21On the contrary.
15:22It's a pride thing.
15:23Raising my girl without leeching off someone else.
15:28Adam, you're just gonna let her talk to me like this?
15:31You're really gonna judge a single mom?
15:34Because I was raised by one.
15:35And I know the sacrifices it takes.
15:38Plus, dealing with the crap from ignorant people like you.
15:42So if I gotta choose between Jacqueline and you, I'd pick her.
15:47You're sick.
15:48Sick!
15:53I'm so sorry.
15:54I never wanted any of this to happen.
15:56Jacqueline, I'd be honored to be part of your life and Ally's.
16:04Hey, nobody show me the blaze.
16:06She's right.
16:08We'll show you.
16:09You okay?
16:10Yeah.
16:12You okay?
16:13Being a mom is an incredible gift life gave us.
16:22And even if we're not perfect, we're real.
16:25Women who laugh, cry, show up, and get tired.
16:29But above all, whether alone or not, we fight with everything we've got.
16:33Because we know there's no greater reward than our kids love.
