00:00:00My mom is a physicist.
00:00:05She even knows how to fold paper.
00:00:08She taught me how to make cookie.
00:00:10Look, just like our dog.
00:00:12Johnny.
00:00:13Mommy!
00:00:15Look, I made cookie.
00:00:18I made this.
00:00:21Aren't you the sweetest mom?
00:00:23Mommy loves her so much.
00:00:25Do you love me?
00:00:26Yes.
00:00:27Okay, darling, let's go.
00:00:29No.
00:00:40John.
00:00:41Hold on.
00:00:42Oh!
00:00:44Mommy!
00:00:45No!
00:00:55Hold on.
00:00:56Is that Evelyn?
00:00:57The Carter's other daughter.
00:00:58That's Mr. Carter's daughter from wife number one.
00:01:01She spent the past 18 years at a cow farm somewhere in Texas.
00:01:04She literally has just been brought to Silicon Valley two months ago.
00:01:08Let's go.
00:01:09This is the 2025 tech charity gala.
00:01:11What is she doing here?
00:01:13This is 2025.
00:01:1570 years ahead.
00:01:17I have time traveled.
00:01:19And this young lady, she's called Evelyn Carter, just like me.
00:01:23We even look exactly the same.
00:01:26There you are, sis.
00:01:28We were so worried you'd gotten lost.
00:01:31Again.
00:01:32Sophie Carter.
00:01:33She was this Evelyn's stepsister.
00:01:35She bullied her since she was brought back.
00:01:38Just two months and Evelyn was hardly herself.
00:01:40Now she comes to humiliate me.
00:01:42Sis, you're holding the glass wrong.
00:01:44Am I?
00:01:45Ugh.
00:01:46It's not grape juice, you know?
00:01:47You're totally increasing the recommended serving temperature, gripping it like that with
00:01:52your barn hands.
00:01:53Here.
00:01:54Let me show you.
00:01:55This is how civilized people hold a glass.
00:02:06Ugh!
00:02:07Evelyn!
00:02:08Did you seriously just spill wine all over me?
00:02:10I was just trying to help you.
00:02:11Darling, you fumbled it yourself.
00:02:13Obviously, you did it on purpose.
00:02:16A stinky milkmaid from some dusty ranch thinks she can talk back to me like that?
00:02:20Dear sister, it was truly an accident.
00:02:23All right.
00:02:24I guess it was an accident.
00:02:26You'd never actually dare.
00:02:38That's how I would do it if I actually meant it, darling.
00:02:44How dare you!
00:02:46I wonder if that brought the wine back down to the serving temperature you mentioned.
00:02:50Disgusting.
00:02:51Such behavior.
00:02:52Emily's gala?
00:02:53She deserves to be in a barn.
00:02:54Just as expected from a milkmaid.
00:02:57Completely no reading.
00:02:58What lovely manners.
00:02:59Lurking in the corner, pointing fingers?
00:03:00Is that your so-called reading?
00:03:01They must be so proud of you at home.
00:03:02Evelyn Carter, what are you doing?
00:03:03Aw, Dad!
00:03:04This is your sister, and you are humiliating her in front of all of these people.
00:03:05What happened to basic human decency?
00:03:06Doting on your mistress's daughter and standing idle while she stirs up mischief?
00:03:07Is that what you call decency?
00:03:08You!
00:03:09This commanding presence.
00:03:10Since when did she become a different person?
00:03:11Mr. Miller is here.
00:03:12Mind your manners.
00:03:13I will not be made a fool in front of Silicon Valley's wealthiest family.
00:03:17I will not be made a fool in front of Silicon Valley's wealthiest family.
00:03:24He looks so much like my Johnny.
00:03:25Such a pity.
00:03:26He would've been 78 this year.
00:03:27I would've been 78 this year.
00:03:28I will not be made a fool in front of Silicon Valley's wealthiest family.
00:03:30He looks so much like my Johnny.
00:03:39Such a pity.
00:03:43He would've been 78 this year.
00:03:52He would have been 78 this year.
00:03:54Mr. Miller.
00:03:55Wait, his last name is Miller, too.
00:03:59Can you tell me your relationship with Johnny?
00:04:02How dare you?
00:04:03Who do you think you are to call Grandpa Miller by that nickname?
00:04:07His grandfather is Johnny?
00:04:09That would make this boy my great-grandson.
00:04:15Miss Bull, this little rat was poorly raised.
00:04:19Clearly.
00:04:19Please be magnanimous.
00:04:20I'll discipline her right now.
00:04:23Apologize to Mr. Miller.
00:04:24Immediately.
00:04:27Johnny, is he still alive?
00:04:30You insolent wretch.
00:04:31How dare you spout such nonsense?
00:04:34My grandfather's been ill for some time.
00:04:36We're all worried.
00:04:36And your daughter comes here and curses him.
00:04:38Mr. Miller, it's a misunderstanding.
00:04:40She...
00:04:41Is he ill?
00:04:42Can you take me to him immediately?
00:04:45Mr. Carter, your daughter's not bold.
00:04:46She's insane.
00:04:47Ellen Carter.
00:04:48If you want to die, do so on your own.
00:04:50Don't take the Carter family down with you.
00:04:53Social climbers are nothing new to the Miller family, but your boldness is quite something.
00:04:57No one would believe me, not in this borrowed life, that Johnny's my son.
00:05:01I must see that he's all right.
00:05:03Mr. Miller, tell me if I'm right.
00:05:09The Miller core password consists of 26 digits.
00:05:16That's confidential even inside the Miller family.
00:05:19How could you know that?
00:05:20Because I was the one who designed it.
00:05:23I rooted it in quantum error correction.
00:05:25It isn't just the length that matters.
00:05:27I could calculate every digit simply from the date.
00:05:30Yeah, I see you now.
00:05:33Please come with me.
00:05:39Why did Mr. Miller agree to her insane requests?
00:05:43Somebody pinch me.
00:05:44Miss Carter about Mr. Miller's favor?
00:05:46A milkmaid winning favor?
00:05:49I'd sooner believe that she cast some dark voodoo on that old man, and Mr. Miller is just making her apologize in person.
00:05:55If she pisses off Mr. Miller, the whole family's done.
00:05:58We must cut ties with that crazy girl immediately.
00:06:01Johnny, what's wrong with you?
00:06:11How did he get so ill?
00:06:13Someone carelessly mentioned explosion around him.
00:06:16When he was eight, my great-grandmother died in a lab accident, saving his life.
00:06:20Ever since then, he can't bear to hear the word explosion.
00:06:23My poor little baby.
00:06:25Mama is so sorry that my passing left such a lot.
00:06:28Who is she really?
00:06:29Why would Grandpa trust her with the encryption, unless perhaps her family was close to him?
00:06:41Cookie!
00:06:42Mommy!
00:06:43Look, I made cookie!
00:06:54Little man.
00:06:56You kept it all in tears.
00:06:59She calls Grandpa Joanie and little man?
00:07:02How did she get that close to him?
00:07:07Don't worry.
00:07:08I'm here now.
00:07:13So what did you find?
00:07:15Miss Carter's father, Island Carter, ran Quantum Dynamics.
00:07:20He approached us many times for findings, more than once, but never succeeded.
00:07:24All I can tell you is that there is no connection to the patriarch at all.
00:07:29Maybe her mother knew Grandpa.
00:07:32Bring me Island Carter.
00:07:33Sure.
00:07:33Yes, sir.
00:07:35I can't believe Leon let that girl stay alone with the old man.
00:07:39Oh, God.
00:07:40Oh, God.
00:07:41Is she his arranged match?
00:07:42The paper doll.
00:07:52Mama made it all by herself.
00:07:55It's not as clever as yours.
00:07:57No.
00:08:00Johnny, you must have gone through so much pain after I left you so soon.
00:08:04I'm so sorry.
00:08:09Leon, you can't let Miss Carter, a complete outsider, be alone with Grandpa Miller.
00:08:15What if she's up to something?
00:08:18I don't think so.
00:08:19They seem pretty close.
00:08:20Her parents must have met Grandpa.
00:08:23Mr. Miller, I swear to you, that girl's mother never even met the patriarch.
00:08:27Please don't let that crazy little hellion make a fool out of you.
00:08:33Leon, would you prepare dinner?
00:08:35I intend to stay with Johnny for the night.
00:08:36He shouldn't be alone.
00:08:38Miss Carter, I don't think that I'm your servant.
00:08:40Of course you're not my servant.
00:08:42You're my great-grandson.
00:08:46Of course you're not my servant, dear.
00:08:49You're my great...
00:08:50Do you think you're some sort of emotional support rat?
00:08:55Grandpa doesn't need you hovering around.
00:08:58Miss Carter, I can assure you, the Miller family is perfectly capable of taking care of my grandpa.
00:09:02Mr. Carter, I think it's time for your daughter to go home.
00:09:16I heard my mother's voice in my dreams.
00:09:20It's so real.
00:09:28I made this.
00:09:30Aren't you just for this little girl?
00:09:31Mommy loves her so much.
00:09:33The arms are folded to a heart.
00:09:36It wasn't a dream.
00:09:39Mommy is here?
00:09:40Go home right now and stop riding around like you're a Miller.
00:09:44You're embarrassing yourself and them.
00:09:46Miss Carter, so it seems like your family's not acquainted with my grandfather.
00:09:49So tell me, how did she know about my family's secret?
00:09:53Who are you?
00:09:54I am...
00:09:56They won't believe me now.
00:09:58Who I am doesn't matter.
00:09:59What matters is that I simply cannot stand back and watch all this chaos unfilled within the Miller family.
00:10:08Mommy?
00:10:08Leon, she is clearly clinging to the Miller name with this little tale.
00:10:15Wouldn't it be best if someone showed her the door?
00:10:19Affected and scheming.
00:10:21Is this the girlfriend we've chosen?
00:10:23I can't imagine Johnny approving of you accompanying such a woman.
00:10:28Leon, I was trying to be nice, okay?
00:10:31I was defending the family and this is how she treats me?
00:10:34I've tolerated you as a respect for your family and your age, but now you've overstepped.
00:10:40You have no right to meddle in the affairs of the Miller family.
00:10:43Apologize to Mr. Miller and Ms. Bull, now.
00:10:46You expect me to apologize to them?
00:10:49That's the world turning on its head.
00:11:04Grandpa, you're awake.
00:11:10Grandpa, you shouldn't be up.
00:11:12Let me help you.
00:11:13There is a crazy woman out there disrespecting you.
00:11:16She's dragging the whole family.
00:11:18The patriarch has always put the family first.
00:11:20The moment he realizes that she disrespected the family, she's doomed.
00:11:26He's the godfather of Silicon Valley.
00:11:27Tech giants tremble at the twitch of his pinky.
00:11:29Of course she's doomed.
00:11:30You're an ungrateful countryside brat.
00:11:32From this day on, the Carter family severs all ties with you.
00:11:36Evelyn, no one can save you now.
00:11:39You're dead.
00:11:39Grandpa, are you feeling okay?
00:11:43Don't trouble yourself.
00:11:44I can't handle this.
00:11:45Come on, Grandpa.
00:11:46Let me help you escort you to your room.
00:11:49I'm sorry.
00:11:50Mr. Miller, that Carter bastard acts on her own.
00:11:53With the sunburn.
00:11:59Jonathan.
00:12:02Why is Grandpa kneeling and calling her mom?
00:12:17Has the patriarch gone senile?
00:12:18Yeah.
00:12:19Tragedy.
00:12:20I mean, the great Jonathan Miller became this?
00:12:23You.
00:12:27Johnny!
00:12:27Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:12:29Miss Carter was alone with Grandpa right before this, right?
00:12:33She's definitely up to something.
00:12:34This is her doing.
00:12:36You've done enough.
00:12:43You better stay out of trouble at school.
00:12:46Because of you, the Millers are done with us.
00:12:48We're blacklisted.
00:12:49Do you even understand what that means for this family?
00:12:52Miller Tech is a renowned scientific dynasty.
00:12:54I rather doubt they would associate themselves with the outdated endeavors of Carter Industries.
00:12:58What did you say?
00:12:59I dare you to repeat that.
00:13:02Mind the tree.
00:13:03You're awfully close.
00:13:06You should learn from your sister.
00:13:09She's competing in the Physics Olympiad.
00:13:11NASA recruits the winners.
00:13:13And you, always a family disgrace.
00:13:16NASA?
00:13:16Where I worked in my past life.
00:13:19Where do I sign up?
00:13:20You, a high school physics failure?
00:13:27Passing a basic exam would be a miracle.
00:13:30Oh, Ablan.
00:13:31You should know your place.
00:13:33And stop being so jealous of your sister.
00:13:36The NASA entry jets are always basic.
00:13:42Who do you think you are?
00:13:44The spot for the competition is only going to be...
00:13:46Out of the way, now!
00:13:50Jason Miller, king of the school!
00:13:54Move it!
00:13:55Move it!
00:14:00Move it!
00:14:03Yo, that was sick, Jason!
00:14:05Piece of cake.
00:14:07That's so cool, Jay!
00:14:11Pick them up.
00:14:12Now, before I forget that I'm a lady.
00:14:16Make me.
00:14:17What is she doing?
00:14:18Flirting with a Miller?
00:14:20Jason's in you, not her.
00:14:22Last warning, John.
00:14:24Pick them up.
00:14:26Jason, show her who's boss.
00:14:28And if I don't...
00:14:31This is Jason Miller.
00:14:33The favorite son of the Miller family.
00:14:36He's the big shot at our school.
00:14:38I'll regret provoking him.
00:14:40Another Miller?
00:14:41So he's my great-grandson as well?
00:14:43Mercy.
00:14:43Looks like this boy needs a proper lesson, too.
00:14:46Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, what are you doing?
00:14:51You boys never do crack a book, do you?
00:14:54Just pick on your classmates instead.
00:14:56Tell me, young man, do you remember what it means to be a student?
00:14:59Okay, okay, okay, fine, fine.
00:15:01I'll pick them up.
00:15:04You talk like you're an elder.
00:15:07Who are you?
00:15:08Don't slouch about.
00:15:34Set yourself up properly.
00:15:36Weird, why am I listening to this woman?
00:15:39Why did Jason listen to her?
00:15:40All right, today's the big one.
00:15:42We'll be checking your bridge models for stiffness.
00:15:45If yours passes, you'll be in the running for the physics competition.
00:15:49Now let me have a look.
00:15:50Evelyn, you're already behind the rest of the class.
00:16:07And now you're giving up?
00:16:08I didn't.
00:16:10I did what needed to be done.
00:16:11Come on, sis.
00:16:12That lie is way too obvious.
00:16:14Even I struggled with this.
00:16:15Just because you struggled doesn't mean the world did.
00:16:19Sophie's top of the class.
00:16:21And you?
00:16:22Please, you reek of cow shit and cheap pride.
00:16:26Your bridge simply can't support the required weight.
00:16:29Don't waste your time just to embarrass yourself at the end.
00:16:32You just felt lucky.
00:16:43You didn't even present any of your calculations.
00:16:46Totally just guessed.
00:16:51See?
00:16:51It's simple.
00:16:53My bridge is clearly better than yours.
00:16:55So what?
00:17:20Remarkable.
00:17:21Even stronger than Sophie's bridge.
00:17:23It appears that Evelyn is our true physics talent.
00:17:28I wouldn't be surprised if you win the competition this year with knowledge like this.
00:17:34Bravo.
00:17:44You're not just a fraud.
00:17:46You're straight up evil.
00:17:47You did this whole thing just to embarrass me, didn't you?
00:17:49Evelyn admitted and apologized to Sophie now.
00:17:52Yeah, how could Evelyn possibly be better than Sophie?
00:17:55Sophie definitely doesn't deserve this.
00:17:58Evelyn, it's your fault.
00:17:59Sophie now looks stupid.
00:18:00Enough!
00:18:01One more word and you'll regret it.
00:18:03Jason, why are you defending her?
00:18:05She just hit you earlier.
00:18:07I don't know why, but when I see someone picking on her, I just want to protect her.
00:18:12It seems my great-grandson isn't so bad after all.
00:18:15Jason, didn't you say you liked me?
00:18:17Are you just trying to destroy me because you can't have me?
00:18:20I never said I liked you.
00:18:22What the hell is this?
00:18:23Oh, I get it now.
00:18:25Jason's fallen for Evelyn.
00:18:27Oh!
00:18:28So that's your type.
00:18:31Is this what love feels like?
00:18:34Don't love them.
00:18:36You're a good young man.
00:18:39Feels nice.
00:18:41I like it.
00:18:42No way.
00:18:50The top dog's about to spill.
00:18:52Confession time.
00:18:55Jason's here to confess to you.
00:18:56He still likes you.
00:18:57I knew it.
00:18:58I'll never forgive him for what he did earlier.
00:19:05Jason, even if you beg for me, forget this.
00:19:08Just get out of the way.
00:19:08Come on.
00:19:09I thought he liked Sophie.
00:19:13Hey.
00:19:15Got something for you?
00:19:17How could the air of the Miller family fall for a milkmaid?
00:19:21I get it.
00:19:22He's settling for Evelyn because she looks like me.
00:19:29Lo, you.
00:19:31Be my girlfriend.
00:19:31Be my girlfriend.
00:19:31He is from that little sprout.
00:19:45Girlfriend.
00:19:46Do you have no shame?
00:19:48How dare you to protect her Elbrick?
00:19:50The most popular playboy getting rejected in front of everyone?
00:19:59That's gotta hurt.
00:20:00Talk about a reality check.
00:20:03Shut up!
00:20:05I will make you love me one day sooner or later.
00:20:08I'm in trouble.
00:20:09Of course.
00:20:17You look so pretty in this necklace, Jenny.
00:20:19Thank you, Daddy.
00:20:21It's okay.
00:20:22She can call me whatever she wants.
00:20:26I'm here to visit Johnny.
00:20:27May I see him now?
00:20:28Miss Carter, my grandfather needs rest.
00:20:31Only family's allowed it.
00:20:32Well, the last time he saw me, he woke up.
00:20:35As a family, don't you want him to wake up?
00:20:37Please have dinner arranged.
00:20:40I will be accompanying Johnny tonight.
00:20:44Wow, she doesn't act like a guest.
00:20:47More like she owns the place.
00:20:48Who does she think she is?
00:20:51Oh, Jenny.
00:20:52Be a good girl and go get Auntie a glass of water.
00:20:59Auntie, Evelyn, here's some water.
00:21:02Oh, thank you.
00:21:07I'll overlook it just this once, but if it happens again,
00:21:19I won't hesitate to throw that water in your mother's face
00:21:22for failing to teach you proper manners.
00:21:23Oh, my darling.
00:21:30Come here.
00:21:32Auntie, Evelyn's so mean.
00:21:34She got mad at me for offering me some water.
00:21:38Miss Carter, do you care to explain?
00:21:41I must say, I expected better judgments from you.
00:21:44Show some respect.
00:21:45Leon, Leon, it's fine if she doesn't like Jenny.
00:21:49There's no harm in refusing a glass of water,
00:21:52but to cause such a scene in front of a bedridden patient
00:21:55who needs rest?
00:21:56Miss Carter, please leave.
00:21:58This house was given to me under the 1955
00:22:01Federal Quantum Research Initiative,
00:22:03and now you propose to evict me from my own problem?
00:22:06You clueless milkmaid.
00:22:08This house is Leon's great-grandmother's legacy.
00:22:11It represents the highest honor in American scientific research.
00:22:14It's not something an outsider can claim.
00:22:17From where I stand, you're the only outsider here,
00:22:20and you have no business meddling
00:22:22in the Miller family's affairs.
00:22:24I'm Leon's girlfriend, the next Miss Miller,
00:22:27and you, you're a milkmaid from some no-name ranch.
00:22:31Who's the real outsider here?
00:22:33You may think that you've come for a young lady,
00:22:36but I will never permit you to marry into the Miller family
00:22:38and stain our legacy.
00:22:40I won't have my descendants corrupted.
00:22:44Leon.
00:22:44Who do you think you are?
00:22:45Who gives you the right to butt into the Miller family?
00:22:50I am your great-grandmother.
00:22:55This aura, why do I feel like I have no choice
00:22:58but to listen to her?
00:23:01Oh, my goodness!
00:23:03You have lost your mind.
00:23:05What do you think?
00:23:06This charade is going to solve anything?
00:23:08Miss Carter, just because you share a name
00:23:09with my great-grandmother
00:23:10doesn't give you the right to insult the Miller family.
00:23:12The patient appears to be in shock.
00:23:22Everyone out.
00:23:23Please.
00:23:24Wait, no.
00:23:24Back it up.
00:23:26Oh, my God.
00:23:27You've been through so much.
00:23:29Let Mommy see you.
00:23:30You've been through so much.
00:23:30You've been through so much.
00:23:30Let Mommy see you.
00:23:31You've been through so much.
00:23:33You've been through so much.
00:23:34Oh, my God.
00:23:39Cut the act, you fraud.
00:23:44The patient's showing voluntary movement.
00:23:46He should regain consciousness soon.
00:23:49That's madness.
00:23:51But could she really be my great-grandmother?
00:23:54Mommy, I'm scared.
00:24:04Johnny, would you like Mommy to sing the little song?
00:24:07Yes.
00:24:16Mommy, will you always be with me?
00:24:20Always.
00:24:21I'll never leave you.
00:24:24What if we get separated?
00:24:27Then I'll find you until we're together again.
00:24:30Okay.
00:24:37She actually knew how to calm Grandpa down.
00:24:40Could she really be?
00:24:42Leon, don't let her fool you.
00:24:44She barged in here and made a scene.
00:24:46Now she wants us to believe she's your reincarnated great-grandmother
00:24:49because she knows a couple of songs.
00:24:51It's also calculated.
00:24:53I must be losing it.
00:24:54That girl, my grandmother?
00:24:57She's not even 20.
00:24:58What am I thinking?
00:24:59Miss Carter, please stop pretending like you know my grandfather.
00:25:02Shh.
00:25:03Johnny, just calm down.
00:25:04Your grandfather's condition has just stabilized.
00:25:07He needs complete rest.
00:25:09Doctor, when do you think that he'll recover?
00:25:11He's showing signs of consciousness,
00:25:13but it could be tomorrow or next week.
00:25:16Like, there's no way to tell for sure.
00:25:26Come on.
00:25:36Miss Carter, would you like for me to arrange a ride?
00:25:39Oh, that won't be necessary.
00:25:40Is she angry with me?
00:25:43Why do I feel so ashamed?
00:25:44Like, I'm waiting for her to scold me,
00:25:47just so I can breathe again.
00:25:55Bye-bye.
00:25:56Next time, you won't make it past this door.
00:26:00Auntie, let me see you out.
00:26:02Oh, how sweet.
00:26:04Okay.
00:26:04Okay.
00:26:04Hey, Mom.
00:26:10Goodbye.
00:26:14Help, Mommy!
00:26:15Help!
00:26:19Mommy's coming!
00:26:21Sweetie!
00:26:22I'm coming!
00:26:23Help my apartment!
00:26:24Oh, come on!
00:26:26Someone help us!
00:26:27What happened?
00:26:28Help us!
00:26:30Help!
00:26:30Someone help us!
00:26:31Jenny, are you all right?
00:26:40I almost died.
00:26:40I was terrified I would never see you again.
00:26:44It was Evelyn.
00:26:45She intentionally pushed Jenny.
00:26:51But if there is anyone to be held accountable,
00:26:55it's me.
00:26:56And I would like to personally apologize to you, Evelyn,
00:26:59for whatever it is my poor child has done
00:27:01to deserve to be drowned.
00:27:03What kind of six-year-old child
00:27:06is learning how to scheme like this?
00:27:08There must be someone guiding her, no doubt.
00:27:11We are not framing you.
00:27:12I repeat, if you have any issues,
00:27:15take it out on me.
00:27:17Yes, I am taking it out on you.
00:27:19Because if a child so young
00:27:21already knows how to scheme like this,
00:27:22who else is to blame but her mother?
00:27:24Then what do you make of this?
00:27:26Bullseye!
00:27:26The Millers put family first.
00:27:29And you, an outsider, just crossed the line.
00:27:32Good luck trying to win him back after all this.
00:27:36Just because she almost spilled water on you
00:27:38doesn't give you the right to harm a child, Miss Carter.
00:27:41You're no longer welcome in this house.
00:27:42This woman would betray her own child
00:27:45without even blinking.
00:27:46Yet you're still keeping her close?
00:27:48Good heavens.
00:27:49You have no right to judge me.
00:27:50You've been bewitched by this woman,
00:27:53letting her twist you around her finger.
00:27:55I don't think you're worthy
00:27:56to become the Miller heir.
00:27:58It is one thing to accuse me,
00:28:00but how dare you speak to Leon like that?
00:28:02He is the CEO of this family's corporation.
00:28:06Now, if things keep heading this way,
00:28:08the Miller family will just weaken.
00:28:09As for your CEO position,
00:28:11I think it's time for you to step aside.
00:28:14Security!
00:28:16Remove this woman.
00:28:16Don't you dare touch my mother!
00:28:31Grandpa,
00:28:32don't you dare touch my mother!
00:28:35Out and about so soon,
00:28:47you only just recovered.
00:28:49Come on, let's go inside.
00:28:51Like that.
00:28:55Who does she think she is?
00:28:57Disrespecting grandfather like that?
00:28:58Leon, do something!
00:28:59Just take Ginny and leave.
00:29:17As soon as I saw the paper doll,
00:29:20I knew it was you.
00:29:21I heard your lullaby as I dreamed.
00:29:26This is all my fault.
00:29:27I'm so sorry for leaving you for so long.
00:29:30But Mommy's here now, okay?
00:29:32I'll never leave you alone again.
00:29:33How did you end up in another girl's body?
00:29:37I thought I had died that day.
00:29:39But then, in the blink of an eye,
00:29:40I woke up,
00:29:4117 years later,
00:29:43in the body of my namesake,
00:29:44another Evelyn Carter.
00:29:46I always kept my promise to you.
00:29:48Remember?
00:29:49What I told you of that name?
00:29:51And I thought it wouldn't stop?
00:29:52Will you always be with me?
00:29:55Always and forever.
00:29:57I'll always find you.
00:29:58Until I'm not again.
00:30:03My grandpa,
00:30:05who commanded the city with just a look,
00:30:07is now weeping like a child.
00:30:12This whole situation is absurd.
00:30:14Shouldn't we reconsider?
00:30:15There's no concrete evidence.
00:30:16Silence!
00:30:17Miss Carter,
00:30:18don't you think this lie is ridiculous?
00:30:20Aside from the fact
00:30:20it defies scientific logic,
00:30:22do you really think a few words
00:30:23will convince us
00:30:24that you're the Miller matriarch?
00:30:25She is your great-grandmother,
00:30:27so you watch your tone, young man.
00:30:30He has your temper.
00:30:32I'm not dead about that.
00:30:33But I'm afraid
00:30:35Leon's intellect
00:30:36might not be what's required
00:30:37to carry the weight
00:30:38of the Miller family name.
00:30:40Don't you worry, Mom.
00:30:41The Millers have more grandchildren.
00:30:43I'll just sign them all
00:30:44and you can choose the heir,
00:30:47all right?
00:30:47My God!
00:30:48No.
00:30:49Leon's still young.
00:30:51He needs proper guidance.
00:30:53We must have patience.
00:30:57Leon, say it with me.
00:31:00Great-grandmom.
00:31:01I've never seen
00:31:02grandfather this happy.
00:31:04Accepting a great-grandmother
00:31:05might not be so bad.
00:31:07Great-grandma.
00:31:10See?
00:31:13Wait.
00:31:18I'm going to return
00:31:19to the Miller family residence tomorrow.
00:31:22See that my room is prepared?
00:31:23Got it.
00:31:24Good morning, Mr. Miller.
00:31:33Oh, from now on,
00:31:34you are to treat Ms. Carter
00:31:36exactly as you treat me.
00:31:37Every single detail.
00:31:39Yes.
00:31:39Ah, what?
00:31:41Here, let me emphasize it for you.
00:31:44If Ms. Carter gives you an order
00:31:46that contradicts with one of my orders,
00:31:48you will follow hers.
00:31:52Notice her.
00:31:53Have a seat, Mark.
00:31:54Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
00:31:57Head of the table for you.
00:32:00There you go.
00:32:02Would you like some milk?
00:32:05What's happening?
00:32:06Oh, that's lovely.
00:32:09No jam!
00:32:10Your great-grandmother likes butter.
00:32:16Thank you, my boy.
00:32:17They've gone mad.
00:32:23Sir, your master has arrived.
00:32:25Oh, I have another grandson.
00:32:28He doesn't usually stay here.
00:32:30I bought him a small villa near his school.
00:32:32He is very well behaved.
00:32:34You will not.
00:32:37Grandpa.
00:32:40Not to be rude, Evelyn,
00:32:46but I just confessed my love to you
00:32:48and you publicly rejected me,
00:32:49so what are you doing here?
00:32:52Why?
00:32:53You two know each other?
00:32:55We are classmates.
00:32:57And desksmates.
00:32:58What?
00:32:59Having regrets,
00:33:00so you came chasing after me?
00:33:06Grandpa!
00:33:07Did you just hit me?
00:33:09That's right.
00:33:10I did just hit you.
00:33:12But why?
00:33:13Let me make something perfectly clear.
00:33:16That young lady right there
00:33:18is your great-grandmother,
00:33:20so show some respect.
00:33:23Great-grandmother?
00:33:24What are you even talking about?
00:33:27Still don't get it?
00:33:29Pop quiz.
00:33:30What do you call me?
00:33:32Grandpa.
00:33:33Grandpa!
00:33:33Grandpa, that's right.
00:33:35And what would you call Grandpa's mommy?
00:33:38Come on.
00:33:39You know it.
00:33:39It's right here.
00:33:40Come on.
00:33:41Say it.
00:33:42Great-grandma.
00:33:44Goodbye.
00:33:44You!
00:33:51How dare you take advantage of me?
00:33:53Sit down.
00:33:55Accept it for what it is.
00:33:56Come on, bro.
00:33:57Listen to me.
00:33:58That woman, she's insane!
00:33:59Language!
00:34:01She's using her great-grandbrother's name
00:34:02for a free pass.
00:34:04Do you even know who her great-grandmother was?
00:34:06She's a poet, Grandma.
00:34:08She's a legend.
00:34:10Half of the Millers family wealth
00:34:11came from great-grandma, okay?
00:34:13Without her, we wouldn't be where we are today.
00:34:15We all know that.
00:34:17I don't understand.
00:34:18He insults me and then praises me.
00:34:20Should I be flattered or angry?
00:34:22Great-grandma, this is really hard for Jason to understand.
00:34:26Don't be angry.
00:34:27Why didn't you just call her?
00:34:29She's our great-grandmother.
00:34:30No way!
00:34:31You guys must be brainwashed or something!
00:34:33She's a fraud!
00:34:35Then let me make it official!
00:34:38Ellen Carter.
00:34:39Respected mother.
00:34:41Great-grandmother.
00:34:44Are you guys serious?
00:34:45From now on, you will respect and obey her.
00:34:48You will cherish her.
00:34:50You will protect her.
00:34:52And if you ever dare to defy her ever again,
00:34:56then you will be expelled from the Miller family permanently.
00:35:00Is that true?
00:35:05We understand, Grandpa.
00:35:08Great-grandpa.
00:35:10Good boy.
00:35:13Sir, Abuchala.
00:35:16Great-grandpa?
00:35:17Dad?
00:35:18Uncle Jason?
00:35:21Auntie?
00:35:22No, no, no, no, no.
00:35:23Well, that's mixing generations.
00:35:25No, no, it's fine.
00:35:26I like it this way.
00:35:28Charlotte, come here.
00:35:30Go on.
00:35:32Charlotte is Leon's daughter.
00:35:34She's been away at boarding school.
00:35:36Her mother died.
00:35:37Childbirth.
00:35:38Amniotic fluid.
00:35:39Embolism.
00:35:40Poor girl.
00:35:41Lost her mother way too young.
00:35:43I apologize.
00:35:44I assume that Leon didn't have any kids of his own.
00:35:46That would explain his burning desire to play Papa to someone else's kid.
00:35:52Let's see.
00:35:56Charlotte's so young.
00:35:57Why is she in boarding school?
00:35:59Leon, he wanted her to learn independence early on.
00:36:03The school is really a fantastic thing.
00:36:06It's an international curriculum, top-tier preschool program.
00:36:10Leon, tell me, does Lillian's daughter, Jenny,
00:36:13does she go to boarding school?
00:36:14Well, no, Jenny never had a father,
00:36:17so she never had that security.
00:36:18I always thought that sending her away
00:36:20would just make her more anxious and sensitive.
00:36:23Poor Jenny.
00:36:24Everyone deserves to grow up with a loving dad.
00:36:27Leon, you should marry Lillian,
00:36:28tune her and adopt Jenny.
00:36:30Exactly.
00:36:31Jenny, I just adore that little girl,
00:36:33charming and smart.
00:36:34We should set a wedding date as early as possible.
00:36:38Make this official.
00:36:39Absolutely.
00:36:40A wedding, is it?
00:36:41Well, I think that you guys would be better
00:36:44setting a date, getting your heads examined.
00:36:50Sir, Miss Ball just arrived with a daughter, Jenny.
00:36:54Grandma.
00:36:56Jenny's here.
00:36:57Daddy.
00:36:59Hi, sweetheart.
00:37:00Grandpa, how are you feeling today?
00:37:03Wait, Grandpa, you have to take good care of yourself.
00:37:07If you get sick again, I'll be so worried.
00:37:10Sweet Jenny, always smart and kind-hearted.
00:37:14You are just in time.
00:37:16Please, join us for dinner.
00:37:18Miss Carter, do you mind if I sit right here?
00:37:22Secretary Ball, you may sit next to Leon.
00:37:25She is not someone you can get close to.
00:37:28Come on, darling.
00:37:33Hey, Mom.
00:37:35I remember cod as your favorite.
00:37:39A man of his status serving her food.
00:37:41He must really like her.
00:37:47Daddy, I want lobster.
00:37:49The claws are scary.
00:37:50Can you help me peel it?
00:37:52Of course.
00:37:53Daddy can help you get the meat out.
00:37:55Daddy, I want lobster, too.
00:38:00Charlotte, you have a just where you should be able to do it by yourself
00:38:02instead of counting on other people that do it.
00:38:06Old enough already?
00:38:07That's strange.
00:38:09Darling, would you like to be with your lobster?
00:38:16Take out the meat.
00:38:18The Miller family heir is being ignored at home,
00:38:21and you, the head of the family, don't even notice.
00:38:23Have you lost your head already?
00:38:25Peel the lobster.
00:38:27Yes, absolutely.
00:38:28I, I, I, I, I, I'm a dud.
00:38:31Charlotte, I'm so sorry.
00:38:32Yes.
00:38:34Even politicians treat your grandpa with reverence.
00:38:37He is hanging on her every word.
00:38:39Leon, I want you to take the afternoon off.
00:38:42I want you to take Charlotte and Miss Carter shopping.
00:38:45Got it.
00:38:46Holy shit.
00:38:47Did the old man arrange her as Leon's future wife?
00:38:51You're here.
00:38:53But Daddy, you promised taking me to toy shopping.
00:38:58That doll is a global limited edition, and it's only 20 grand.
00:39:03Please, do not interrupt adults when they're talking.
00:39:11Jenny, don't pout, honey.
00:39:13Daddy did make you a promise, but he needs special time with his real daughter.
00:39:18Mommy will take you to the amusement park, hmm?
00:39:21Here, I'll, I'll, I'll try.
00:39:23Great.
00:39:24I'm just going to seat him out.
00:39:30Mommy, you really opened my eyes today.
00:39:33That girl, Jenny.
00:39:34She is always fighting Charlotte for attention.
00:39:38She is no ordinary child.
00:39:40Leon, he's just clueless.
00:39:44I just wanted to say thank you.
00:39:46Oh, here.
00:39:47Why don't you just take, um, just take all of these Amex cards and you buy whatever you want.
00:39:53Okay?
00:39:55All of those cards.
00:39:57For her?
00:39:58Come on.
00:39:59Me asking for one isn't asking too much.
00:40:01Get lost!
00:40:01You get tens of thousands of dollars per month in allowance.
00:40:05What more do you need?
00:40:07I mean, I spent all my allowance on that necklace.
00:40:11Only the best for the most beautiful great grandma in the world, right?
00:40:16I will gladly take these.
00:40:18And henceforth, I'll be in charge of your allowance, Jason.
00:40:22No way.
00:40:22Yes, way.
00:40:24From now on at school, you will treat your great-grandmother like royalty.
00:40:34She wants to get into a car, you open her door.
00:40:36She wants to sit down, you pull out her chair.
00:40:38And when schoolwork is done, her bags are carried.
00:40:42Understood.
00:40:46Dream on.
00:40:48Great Nana.
00:40:49I don't like to lift your finger.
00:40:50Watch out.
00:40:51Stone ahead.
00:40:52Tell me I'm not the only one seeing this.
00:40:56Evelyn's totally outshining Sophie now.
00:40:58She's got this whole vibe.
00:40:59Totally.
00:41:01Jason Miller.
00:41:02Carrying her bag just to, what, wing her over?
00:41:05Shut it.
00:41:07Granny, why don't you go ahead?
00:41:10I don't want you to be late for the competition.
00:41:13I'll need a quick smoke break.
00:41:15Hold on a second.
00:41:16I put together this list of rules and consequences last evening.
00:41:22Do me a favor and look it over.
00:41:25Sleeping in class, $100 deduction.
00:41:28Later skipping class, $200 deduction.
00:41:31Smoking, $500.
00:41:33Fighting, $1,000 deduction.
00:41:35What is this?
00:41:36Are these, like, points?
00:41:37Like, game tokens or something?
00:41:39It does feel like my life is a game to her.
00:41:42Why is it so tragic?
00:41:43This is a high-level physics competition.
00:41:52Not something you can cheat your way through like last time.
00:41:54You're giving me classic sore loser energy.
00:41:57Maybe try working on your skills first.
00:41:59Seriously, Jason?
00:42:00Since when did you become her guard dog?
00:42:02She's just using you, and you're too desperate to notice.
00:42:05Watch your mouth.
00:42:07Good luck, Nana.
00:42:08You're the best.
00:42:15The competition is hardly a challenge.
00:42:17I'll be at NASA soon.
00:42:19I can't believe I get to see just how far the quantum research I led in my previous life
00:42:23has come.
00:42:24Who ever gets such an opportunity to time jump 70 years in their work progress?
00:42:33That fast?
00:42:35Trash always races to lose.
00:42:37It's like failure is their favorite hobby.
00:42:40Let her show off.
00:42:41Well, I'm the one who's joining NASA.
00:42:43She's nothing.
00:42:44Seven years later, we've finally had some real progress involved in a defeated generation.
00:42:54I don't believe I've seen you here before.
00:42:55I don't believe I've seen you here before.
00:42:56What is your name?
00:42:57Evelyn Carter.
00:42:58I don't believe I've seen you here before.
00:42:59I don't believe I've seen you here before.
00:43:00What is your name?
00:43:01Evelyn Carter.
00:43:02A high school student.
00:43:03A high schooler.
00:43:04A high schooler.
00:43:05Incredible.
00:43:06Well, suppose if your talent hadn't been restrained by the education system and your thinking hadn't
00:43:10been stuck in the previous century, it might have actually solved it.
00:43:11It's quite brilliant.
00:43:12It's quite brilliant.
00:43:13Your line of thinking here is very impressive.
00:43:17I don't believe I've seen you here before.
00:43:21I don't believe I've seen you here before.
00:43:22What is your name?
00:43:23Evelyn Carter.
00:43:24A high school student.
00:43:25A high schooler.
00:43:28Incredible.
00:43:29Well, suppose if your talent hadn't been restrained by the education system and your thinking
00:43:35hadn't been stuck in the previous century, you might have actually solved this already.
00:43:40Well, I am from the last century.
00:43:43I work for NASA.
00:43:44I don't know if you've ever thought about having a mentor before, but I would be honored.
00:43:51Um, I appreciate you.
00:43:54I'll consider this.
00:43:55I'm still at school.
00:43:56Of course.
00:43:57Well, you know, we'll have someone come and find you then.
00:44:02Mrs. Robson, didn't I already tell you?
00:44:05I really don't have time for your company's project.
00:44:08Leon, what are you doing here?
00:44:09I'm sorry, you two know each other?
00:44:12We're family.
00:44:13Really?
00:44:14Well, I suppose in this case, I could make an exception for your project.
00:44:23But, only because of Evelyn.
00:44:26Thank you, Professor.
00:44:29I can't believe Professor Robson gave her so much respect.
00:44:33Evelyn's a physics genius, just like great-grandma.
00:44:37No wonder Grandpa believed her story.
00:44:39This quarter, I'm gonna head by to the town with her.
00:44:42Very well.
00:44:43I'll come with you.
00:44:44After you.
00:44:46There's a discrepancy in the procurement account.
00:44:53Five million unaccounted for.
00:44:55Give me the head of the department.
00:44:56I'd like a word.
00:44:57That's Secretary Bull's younger brother, Tyler Bull.
00:45:00He rarely comes into the office.
00:45:02Another one from the Bull family.
00:45:04Skipping work, pocketing the firm's money, and still taking a full salary.
00:45:08I think I've seen quite enough.
00:45:09Call the police immediately.
00:45:11But how do we tell Mr. Miller about this?
00:45:13After all, he and Secretary Bull are in a relationship.
00:45:17Is that an excuse to ignore a criminal offense?
00:45:21I think not.
00:45:22What the fuck?
00:45:24How dare you call the police on my brother?
00:45:26Miss Bull, if you can't separate professional from personal, then you're unfit to be executive secretary.
00:45:31Huh.
00:45:32And what gives you the right to make that decision?
00:45:35I graduated from an Ivy League school.
00:45:37Leon personally recruited me.
00:45:39No one has the right to fire me!
00:45:41Would you like to tend to your resignation, or should we proceed with a criminal dismissal?
00:45:46How arrogant.
00:45:47I've investigated you.
00:45:49You're just some ranch nobody.
00:45:50Don't think sleeping your way into the Miller family gives you any real power.
00:45:55As Leon's girlfriend and the future lady of the Miller Group, by what right do you dare fire me?
00:46:04By the text message you're about to get.
00:46:09Miss Bull, following a review of your breach of workplace policies, the Miller Group has decided to proceed with your formal dismissal, effective immediately.
00:46:18Okay, well.
00:46:20Lillian didn't mean to offend you.
00:46:25She's just overly protective of her family.
00:46:28Do we really need to fire her?
00:46:30Can't we just demote her or something?
00:46:31Hell no!
00:46:32She is a traitor.
00:46:34She is not fit to be the chief secretary of the Miller Group, and you, as a matter of fact,
00:46:39you're not fit to be the CEO either.
00:46:42Have you got the share transfer agreement ready or not?
00:46:47Sir, if we just sign right here.
00:46:53Not him!
00:46:55Her!
00:46:56I'm transferring all of my shares to Miss Carter.
00:46:59Was I in any way unclear?
00:47:01Yes.
00:47:01Right away.
00:47:03Should I sign this?
00:47:05Johnny is 78 years of age, and as his mother, I cannot in good conscience watch him wear
00:47:11himself's bone trying to shoulder the weight of this empire.
00:47:13Sir Carter, as of now, employees are at your service.
00:47:20Do you wish to make the leadership change public?
00:47:23No, there is no need.
00:47:24I would like to avoid any unnecessary attention.
00:47:28I understand, Sir Carter.
00:47:29Good problem.
00:47:30Ah, ah, ah!
00:47:31Quick question.
00:47:32Now that your great-grandmother is chairwoman, does the chairwoman owe the CEO an explanation
00:47:38for firing an employee?
00:47:43You have every right to fire Lily.
00:47:46Tyler's her younger brother.
00:47:47He's only been with the company for six months.
00:47:49Of course he's going to make mistakes.
00:47:51Do we really need to involve the police?
00:47:54Mom, how did I raise such a brainless air?
00:47:58Tyler is a parasite, and he is eating away at the foundation of the Miller Group, and you
00:48:04defend him!
00:48:05Okay, settle down.
00:48:07It's no use getting worked up over such a small thing.
00:48:10You're still recovering, all right?
00:48:13Drink your tea.
00:48:15If Tyler returns five times the stolen amount within three days, consider the matter settled.
00:48:20That's $25 million.
00:48:24I'd have to sell one of my own properties just to cover it.
00:48:27And to assure that you don't divert Miller's assets to cover the bull's mess, can you please
00:48:32put his CEO position on temporary hold and freeze any assets under his name?
00:48:37We're family, but you think that's a bit harsh.
00:48:39I couldn't care less if the bulls end up behind bars.
00:48:42What truly matters is that you recognize who they really are.
00:48:45When it's your own child in the middle, what do you do if you don't stand back and do nothing?
00:48:50Mommy always knows best.
00:48:53Oh, and Leon, don't even think about borrowing money.
00:48:56I'm going to call all the lenders myself.
00:48:58Now, let's see if Lillian sticks around when she discovers you've got nothing left.
00:49:04Lillian and I love each other.
00:49:06She's not going to leave me because of this.
00:49:07Here's your bill.
00:49:18It was a lovely meal.
00:49:22I'm sorry, Mr. Miller, but your card is not going through.
00:49:26That must be a mistake.
00:49:27Can you run it one more time, please?
00:49:29No.
00:49:36Lillian, I got benched at CEO.
00:49:39What?
00:49:40Are you serious?
00:49:41Look, I'll do everything I can to take care of your brother.
00:49:45Can you cover this?
00:49:47Me?
00:49:48I don't have any money.
00:49:49I just got fired, too.
00:49:51Wait, Jenny's expenses are already killing me.
00:49:53I've been covering the both of you.
00:49:55Bills, gifts, everything.
00:49:57It's only $1,700.
00:49:59You haven't saved anything.
00:50:01She's still a child.
00:50:03You know how much she needs.
00:50:10You use this as collateral.
00:50:13It's worth a million dollars.
00:50:15He really is broke.
00:50:17What the hell happened?
00:50:18Why did the waiter look at me like I was a fool?
00:50:23Daddy's rich.
00:50:23Let's go get the Dior dresses and the Chanel doll.
00:50:27Jenny, when did luxury become so important to you?
00:50:33That's you, right there.
00:50:34That's you.
00:50:34Didn't I say when Dad's working to stay out?
00:50:54I just thought you work so hard.
00:50:58If you don't eat, your tummy might hurt.
00:51:01Just go.
00:51:04I heard Grandpa say you're out of money.
00:51:11This is my allowance card.
00:51:12I've saved for years.
00:51:13They say there's over 10,000 in it.
00:51:16You can use it, Daddy.
00:51:21Daddy's okay.
00:51:22Really?
00:51:25Go get some rest.
00:51:26I've got work to do.
00:51:34Scholarships, huh?
00:51:38Interesting.
00:51:39I should talk to Jason later.
00:51:41Maybe we'll launch a program like this at our school.
00:51:44Mom.
00:51:45Leon finally scraped together the money.
00:51:48He's just waiting on Lillian to pick it up.
00:51:51That's great.
00:51:53Hi.
00:51:54Thank you, Leon.
00:51:58I know.
00:51:58It was my brother's fault.
00:52:00Is grandfather here so I can apologize personally?
00:52:06I think I've had enough of Earl Grey today.
00:52:08Can I have some jasmine tea?
00:52:10Sure.
00:52:10So, I was wrong.
00:52:16Evelyn isn't Jonathan's prospective granddaughter-in-law.
00:52:19She must be his mistress.
00:52:21I need to get the old man to transfer all shares and assets to Leon
00:52:24before he leaves anything to that woman.
00:52:30Great Grandpa, my uncle didn't mean to upset you.
00:52:34I wanted to apologize on his behalf.
00:52:37Can you please forgive him?
00:52:40When an adult messes up, it's not the child's job to beg forgiveness for him.
00:52:49Stingy, why don't you go find Charlotte to play with?
00:52:53Mr. Miller, my brother did make a mistake.
00:52:57He's been locked in that detention center for days.
00:53:00He learned his lesson.
00:53:01He wouldn't dare do anything like that again.
00:53:03Mom, try this new jasmine tea.
00:53:07The governor sent it over yesterday.
00:53:09They're going to go take a walk in the garden.
00:53:12I could use some fresh air.
00:53:22Hi, Jenny.
00:53:23Where'd you get all of those pretty dresses?
00:53:26Aunt Evelyn bought them for me.
00:53:27She's so nice.
00:53:28Whenever she sees something pretty, she gets it for me.
00:53:31Look.
00:53:31I have the same shoes as you.
00:53:33Why'd she get all of this?
00:53:35Daddy never loved her.
00:53:39Stop!
00:53:40You're crazy, Mom!
00:53:41Jenny, what is going on in here?
00:53:46I just...
00:53:52Oh, sweetie.
00:53:55Oh, Mommy's here.
00:53:56Tell me what's wrong.
00:53:58What happened?
00:53:58Charlotte bullied me.
00:54:00She said, I don't have a dad.
00:54:02She said to get out of this house.
00:54:04And all I wanted was to be friends with her.
00:54:08Charlotte, apologize to Jenny.
00:54:10I didn't say that.
00:54:11I swear I didn't.
00:54:13Leon, please.
00:54:13Don't be too hard on her.
00:54:15I mean, of course Charlotte doesn't want anyone touching her pretty things.
00:54:18That's understandable.
00:54:20And she's right.
00:54:21Jenny doesn't have a father.
00:54:24Charlotte, you're asking for a lesson today.
00:54:26Tell Jenny you're sorry.
00:54:27Dad, I didn't say that.
00:54:28I swear.
00:54:31Well, looks like our little Charlotte is taking the blame again.
00:54:36Thanks, Evelyn.
00:54:37You know, it's funny.
00:54:39I walked past their little chat, and I thought it was very sweet.
00:54:42I thought I'd take a film of it.
00:54:44Would you like to see?
00:54:51Stop!
00:54:52You're crazy, man!
00:54:56Jenny.
00:54:58Jenny, you lied.
00:54:59Where did you become so manipulative?
00:55:01Daddy, I'm sorry.
00:55:02I was just jealous.
00:55:04Charlotte has a lot of pretty dresses and shoes, and I have nothing.
00:55:09Is it because I'm not your real daughter?
00:55:12Hey, she just wants to be loved.
00:55:15She's never had a father.
00:55:17That's how children act when they're starving for affection.
00:55:19Oh, how convenient, Miss Bull.
00:55:22So by your reasoning, her lack of affection gives her permission to lie, harm, manipulate.
00:55:29What's next?
00:55:30She sets the house ablaze and then lays that upon her absent father?
00:55:34You know what?
00:55:35Lillian, I think that we need to take a break.
00:55:42And as for your brother's restitution, you're on your own.
00:55:44Excuse me?
00:55:45Pierre, take them out of here.
00:55:47Miss Bull, this way, please.
00:55:52Come on, Jenny.
00:55:57You dare call yourself a father?
00:56:00You trusted someone else's child and betrayed your own flesh and blood.
00:56:05The least you can do now is apologize.
00:56:07Sorry.
00:56:08Come on to me, to Charlotte.
00:56:09At her age, her father is her whole world.
00:56:13And when that world turns its back on her, then she believes that no one else is going to be there for her.
00:56:21Sweetheart, I made a mistake.
00:56:23Please, I'm sorry for hurting you for yelling at you.
00:56:26Can you please forgive me?
00:56:28It's quite all right, darling.
00:56:33Just because someone says sorry doesn't mean that you have to feel obliged to forgive.
00:56:37Some things take time.
00:56:39And some things don't deserve it at all.
00:56:40Hey, Alex, right?
00:56:54Do you want to hang out after school?
00:56:55Um, yeah, sure.
00:56:57Oh, look at yourself.
00:56:59You can't even pass the dress code to get in the lobby of that restaurant.
00:57:02Or are you aiming to be ballet?
00:57:04Um, don't wait.
00:57:06Your family doesn't even own a car, do they?
00:57:11Seriously, haven't you had enough?
00:57:13Bully people is fun for you or something?
00:57:16Forget them.
00:57:17If you want a license, I got five cars.
00:57:19You can pick which one you're in your driveway.
00:57:29Why'd he run?
00:57:30I was just trying to help him.
00:57:32He didn't need to feel petty.
00:57:33He needed to feel seen.
00:57:36Not saved.
00:57:37So you're telling me by offering him to help in front of everyone, I ended up printing
00:57:41his pride?
00:57:43He's quite gifted, actually.
00:57:45Particularly in physics.
00:57:46Might we consider founding a scholarship?
00:57:50Something in stone?
00:57:51Yes.
00:57:52Let him earn it.
00:57:53Then he'll feel proud, not pitied.
00:57:55Not the brightest ball, but the boy's got a good heart.
00:57:58All right, it's settled then.
00:57:59That's your first assignment.
00:58:00Start a fundraiser and then we'll get the scholarship going.
00:58:03Your wish is my command, Nana.
00:58:05We're fundraising for a science scholarship.
00:58:10Just a few bucks makes a difference.
00:58:12Look, we turned into a charity case.
00:58:14I didn't realize rich boys bagged with boxes now.
00:58:17How much did you raise so far?
00:58:19Do you even have 20 bucks in there?
00:58:21Actually, 21.
00:58:23Guess it's higher than your IQ.
00:58:25And now you're proud of yourself?
00:58:27Class, listen up.
00:58:28Great news.
00:58:29This year, the school has two winners from the Physics Olympiad.
00:58:33Oh my God, it's going to be you.
00:58:35The first student is Sophie Carter.
00:58:40And the one holding the other spot is Evelyn Carter.
00:58:44Told you.
00:58:45My great desk mate is really something.
00:58:50You seriously think guessing your way to the Constellation Prize means anything?
00:58:55The only spot that matters, NASA's program, is reserved for the champion.
00:58:59Spoiler alert, that's me.
00:59:02Exactly.
00:59:03Welcome Professor White from NASA.
00:59:06He's here specifically looking for a gifted student.
00:59:10Professor White, he must come for me.
00:59:13Evelyn, you're nothing.
00:59:14How dare you think you can compare to me.
00:59:16Good afternoon, students.
00:59:21I'm here looking for a student named Carter.
00:59:23So Sophie, you've got this?
00:59:25Of course it's me.
00:59:29Professor White, I am Sophie Carter.
00:59:33No mistake.
00:59:34Professor Robson specifically asked for Ms. Carter.
00:59:37Ms. Carter, if you would, please, could you solve this problem?
00:59:46This problem, it's too difficult.
00:59:58I can't solve it.
01:00:00Look, Professor Robson said by the person at your level, well, this should be easy.
01:00:05He said Ms. Carter was a once-in-a-century talent.
01:00:08This doesn't add up.
01:00:09But this is way beyond the syllabus.
01:00:12I've studied physics up to my sophomore year, but I don't even recognize any of these formulas.
01:00:17Well, if you're truly the person we're looking for, then this should be simple.
01:00:21Unless you're not.
01:00:29Professor White, I am the only physics genius in this class.
01:00:34Who else could it be?
01:00:35Well, there actually is more than one Ms. Carter in this classroom.
01:00:41Oh?
01:00:43You mean Evelyn, the girl that grew up on a ranch and worked as a dairy farmhand?
01:00:48She can't even understand the question, let alone solve it.
01:00:51The answer is five volts.
01:00:54Exactly, five volts.
01:00:56It took me almost an hour back in the day to solve that problem.
01:00:59Can't believe you got it within ten minutes.
01:01:01You must be the one.
01:01:02How did you figure that out?
01:01:03How could it be Evelyn?
01:01:05Is she really better than Sophie?
01:01:07No way.
01:01:08Evelyn's just a dumb loser.
01:01:10How could she be better than me?
01:01:11Facts don't lie.
01:01:13Evelyn's way better than some people who just like to talk big.
01:01:16Who are you talking about?
01:01:17You know who.
01:01:18You!
01:01:19Ms. Carter, if you have the time, we would like you to come and join the NASA group with
01:01:24us.
01:01:26Oh, um, I'd love to, but I'm quite busy with the fundraiser for the scholarship.
01:01:34It's not easy raising money.
01:01:39Fundraiser.
01:01:40I see.
01:01:42Well, we'll see you then.
01:01:43All right, everyone.
01:01:53Evelyn and I are hosting a tech scholarship fundraiser tomorrow.
01:01:57We'd love it if you'd all come.
01:01:59Fundraiser?
01:02:00How much are you trying to raise?
01:02:01Don't tell me.
01:02:01It's going to be another 21 bucks.
01:02:03You all seriously underestimate me.
01:02:06Our goal is one million dollars.
01:02:08Got the whole plan laid out, and great-grandma's got my back.
01:02:12A million?
01:02:14You're dreaming.
01:02:15Jason, don't tell me you're planning to raid the family funds.
01:02:18I heard you're in a strict allowance.
01:02:20If they really pull through with this, we'll be there.
01:02:22Let's see just how big of a joke these two charity clowns really are.
01:02:32Wait, wait, wait.
01:02:33I thought you hadn't officially ended things with Leon.
01:02:37Remember?
01:02:38It was you who left me for him five years ago.
01:02:42But he's broke now.
01:02:44What?
01:02:45You really came here to complain?
01:02:47Not at all.
01:02:48I like you, though.
01:02:50Midnight seats.
01:02:52Me and my company's thriving now.
01:02:53You could be with me.
01:02:54Live good life.
01:02:57Miss Lillian?
01:02:58Are you home?
01:03:00Stay here and be quiet.
01:03:08Mr. Carter, did you need something?
01:03:10Miss Bull, I heard you're marrying Leon, becoming the lady of the Miller family.
01:03:15I came today to discuss the potential partnership with the Miller group.
01:03:20If Evelyn's promised to Leon, the Carters shouldn't turn to me for business issues,
01:03:25then what's her connection to Jonathan Miller exactly?
01:03:28Did she truly...
01:03:30Mr. Carter, have you seen your eldest daughter recently?
01:03:34I mean, what has she been up to?
01:03:36Evelyn?
01:03:37She moved out long ago.
01:03:39Probably somewhere with some guy.
01:03:40Jesus, she's living with the old man now?
01:03:43Mr. Carter, today you really surprised me.
01:03:47Do you want to know why Evelyn has gone missing?
01:03:50Because her current partner is none other than Jonathan Miller, the patriarch.
01:03:55Oh, Evelyn acts like she's this sweet little charity queen.
01:04:03But behind the scenes, she's filthy.
01:04:05Rotten to the core.
01:04:07Ms. Bull, Evelyn is hosting a fundraiser tomorrow.
01:04:10What do you say we show up and expose her for who she really is?
01:04:13Well, it would be my pleasure.
01:04:15After all, having a woman like that stick around the Millers isn't good for the family.
01:04:22Is it?
01:04:23Thank you so much for stopping by.
01:04:25My clever ex-wife who really knows how to play the game.
01:04:40You'll be my biggest support on this.
01:04:43Thank you all for showing up to this fundraising event.
01:04:50These days, many outstanding students still struggle to access better education due to
01:04:55the lack of financial resources.
01:04:57Giving will help create a better future.
01:04:59Jason really changed this time.
01:05:04This event is actually really well organized.
01:05:07All thanks to Evelyn, Jason, who's afraid of nothing, only listens to her.
01:05:12She's shameless.
01:05:14Flirting with every Miller just to marry into the family.
01:05:16Even trying to rein in somebody like Jason.
01:05:18Yeah, I mean, sure, what you said makes sense.
01:05:21But at least this fundraiser helps people, right?
01:05:24He's trying hard, sure.
01:05:26But look around.
01:05:27Do you see anybody donating?
01:05:28This is all just performance art.
01:05:34Are you fucking crazy?
01:05:37Dear sister, you're really desperate for cash, huh?
01:05:41Let me save you the trouble.
01:05:43Take this little donation.
01:05:45How many days will it be?
01:05:58Jason, she hit me.
01:06:05You just hit me.
01:06:06Don't be stupid.
01:06:07Evelyn is manipulating you.
01:06:09She's going to embarrass you.
01:06:10What the hell are you talking about?
01:06:12If you're not donating, get lost.
01:06:14You think this whole thing isn't staged?
01:06:16We have proof.
01:06:20You're doing this out of love, okay?
01:06:22They can say whatever they want.
01:06:25Miss Bull, everybody's here.
01:06:28You can come now and show everybody what a real gold digger Evelyn is.
01:06:32Come and tell them how she seduced the old man.
01:06:34What is Lillian doing here?
01:06:40And who's that guy with her?
01:06:41I don't know.
01:06:42Miss Bull, I'm glad you accepted my invitation.
01:06:46This is Vincent Black, Lillian's ex-husband.
01:06:49After she climbed her way up with Leon, she ditched him.
01:06:52Why is she with him again now?
01:06:54Vincent is a successful entrepreneur.
01:06:57He's loaded.
01:06:58If I'm not mistaken, you haven't ended things with Leon yet.
01:07:01Wouldn't this be regarded as quite disloyal?
01:07:04Ugh, who cares?
01:07:06Only weak men use loyalty to chain down women.
01:07:09I heard you were short on some money.
01:07:11I prepared a donation of $5,010,000.
01:07:14Why such a specific number?
01:07:16Exactly 10 grand above what Lillian's brother helped himself to.
01:07:20What a pity I used to have a boyfriend who wouldn't even spare 5 mil.
01:07:25What are you trying to say?
01:07:26Never heard that Mr. Miller was this stingy.
01:07:29What's going on?
01:07:29Could it be the Miller family's going downhill?
01:07:31Can't even come up with that kind of money?
01:07:33Don't worry, everyone.
01:07:36The Miller family's doing just fine.
01:07:41Leon.
01:07:42Great-grandma used to tell me how Lillian had a cruel heart.
01:07:45I didn't believe you back then.
01:07:47Now I see it with my own eyes.
01:07:48Five years we were together.
01:07:49All I meant to you was money.
01:07:51Was there ever any real feelings?
01:07:53This is all your fault.
01:07:54I left my marriage.
01:07:56For a shot at the Miller matriarch.
01:07:59Ten years as the Miller heir.
01:08:01And you managed to lose everything.
01:08:04Who would stick around for a sinking ship like you?
01:08:07Loving someone means giving them the best.
01:08:10Not dragging them down with you.
01:08:12He was just a useless man.
01:08:14Clinging to the title of son of Miller.
01:08:17It's a good thing Lillian left you.
01:08:19God knows how much she had to suffer when she was with you.
01:08:21Leon was in no place to help.
01:08:27Tyler embezzled from the Miller group, which is a criminal offense.
01:08:31And Lillian bull.
01:08:32You have profited handsomely from Leon throughout the five years we were together.
01:08:42If that's what you call suffering, dear, then I dare say most would line up for the privilege.
01:08:48Well, that's nonsense.
01:08:52I mean, are you accusing me of stealing?
01:08:56Over the past several years, you have used your position and your association with Leon to steal millions from the Miller group.
01:09:03And when exactly do you plan to get those back?
01:09:05Well, that's between me and the Miller family.
01:09:09How would you know anything about it?
01:09:11This, this is the documentation of your embezzlement.
01:09:16You will return the money within three days or I have no choice but to take you to court.
01:09:21How dare you?
01:09:28Leon, you're not really going to let her threaten me like that?
01:09:32I mean, where am I supposed to find that kind of money?
01:09:34I can't go to jail.
01:09:36What about Jenny?
01:09:37She's still so young.
01:09:39You don't really want her to suffer.
01:09:41Oh, good God.
01:09:42What shall I do with this child?
01:09:44Don't tell me he's softening up again.
01:09:47Evelyn's right.
01:09:48Embezzling money from the company is serious.
01:09:50You need to return the money.
01:09:52What?
01:09:53You both listening to Evelyn now?
01:09:55She is an outsider!
01:09:56Gotta say, she acts more like a boss than you ever did, Leon.
01:10:01What?
01:10:01Is she sleeping with grandpa now?
01:10:03Lillian, are you out of your mind?
01:10:05Oh, relax.
01:10:07I'm just guessing.
01:10:09Now that she calls the shots for the Miller family.
01:10:12Why are you two so defensive?
01:10:16Don't tell me she's actually in some 60-year age gap romance with grandpa.
01:10:23Enough!
01:10:24I never thought you would stoop so low.
01:10:29I trust Evelyn, and I won't stand around while anyone tarnishes her name.
01:10:32Leon, you hit me.
01:10:35Why are you defending her so fiercely?
01:10:38Don't tell me you have feelings for her now, too.
01:10:40Oh.
01:10:40So now you and your grandfather are competing for the same woman.
01:10:44Wow.
01:10:45That's not just tea.
01:10:46That's the whole damn teapot.
01:10:49How dare you slander the woman I respect the most.
01:10:53Jason, Miss Bull is telling the truth.
01:10:56Don't be cheated by this woman anymore.
01:10:58Well, Evelyn, how do you intend on explaining yourself?
01:11:01The upright need no defense.
01:11:03Well, why would they both listen to you if you weren't having some sick affair with the old man?
01:11:06Only the filthy sea filth.
01:11:09Yes, my relationship with the Miller family goes back decades.
01:11:13And the patriarch and I have a history.
01:11:15But let us be clear.
01:11:18What you are insinuating is not only beneath me,
01:11:21but beneath the dignity of the entire Miller family.
01:11:24Exactly.
01:11:25The patriarch is a man of integrity.
01:11:27He'd never throw away his hard-earned honor.
01:11:30Evelyn really carries herself with grace.
01:11:33And organizing this whole event, that takes heart.
01:11:36Evelyn's just putting on a show.
01:11:38Who really believes that she's parading around with some spoiled rich boy
01:11:41trying to raise scholarship funds?
01:11:43If you're not donating, then shut up.
01:11:45Oh, it looks like all your connections already showed up.
01:11:48If they don't cough up the money, what exactly are you counting on?
01:11:51And Jason, why don't you throw in this fundraiser
01:11:54to try to build up a charitable image?
01:11:56And now you've turned it into some petty family drama.
01:11:58Exactly.
01:11:59No one's even donating.
01:12:01Who would trust a spoiled rich kid like you?
01:12:05NASA has just donated $100 million to that scholarship.
01:12:14That's Professor Robson from NASA.
01:12:18Professor Robson, how are you?
01:12:21I'm Sophie Carter, top of the class in physics at Pennsylvania High.
01:12:24Yes, how nice are you?
01:12:25Professor Robson acknowledged me.
01:12:29Geniuses recognize geniuses.
01:12:31Even if Evelyn got Professor White's attention by luck,
01:12:34I'll prove my worth with real talent.
01:12:37Evelyn, so, so sorry I'm late.
01:12:39But now that your funding situation is taken care of,
01:12:43perhaps you would consider honoring us by joining the NASA project.
01:12:46Oh my God, Evelyn studied under a NASA executive?
01:12:51That's incredible.
01:12:52Oh, she's already a research fellow with them?
01:12:55When did this happen?
01:12:56That bitch Evelyn.
01:12:58How did she get this kind of insane luck?
01:13:01Professor, your presence is an honor.
01:13:04Great, Jason.
01:13:05Finally taking things first.
01:13:07What, such a tiny amount?
01:13:09It's not even enough to buy Lily in a handbag.
01:13:11What, is that so much to boast about?
01:13:13Oh, look at him.
01:13:15Lost the title of CEO.
01:13:16Now some spare change has him panicking.
01:13:19The amount of money is not what matters.
01:13:21It's the thought behind the donation.
01:13:23That's what this whole fundraiser is about.
01:13:25But, if you do want to talk about numbers,
01:13:31this is the official documentation of Leon's appointment.
01:13:38From here on out, Leon has reclaimed his CEO position in another group,
01:13:43and it's rightful for a successor.
01:13:49Leon's back in charge of the Miller family?
01:13:51Everything that happened before was a test,
01:13:54and I'm very pleased with your performance today.
01:13:56Thank you for your trust, grandmother.
01:13:58On behalf of the Miller group,
01:14:00I am donating $1 billion to the scholarship funds.
01:14:03I'll also be sponsoring 10 more students under my own name.
01:14:09What?
01:14:10That's more money than I ever got standing by you for five years!
01:14:15I hate you, Evelyn Carter.
01:14:19You have taken everything from me!
01:14:21Lillian Bull, you are under arrest for embezzlement of company funds.
01:14:29Hi, boys.
01:14:34Grandpa, thank you and great-grandma for teaching me.
01:14:37Helping others really does feel great.
01:14:39Good.
01:14:40So what kind of reward would you like?
01:14:42Name it.
01:14:43Helping others is already a reward.
01:14:45Why would I need more?
01:14:46Jason's really made progress.
01:14:51Still, the reward has been prepared.
01:14:55I may as well give it to Charlotte.
01:14:58Wait, Grandpa, I don't want any gifts.
01:15:00All I want is for you, Dad, Uncle, and Auntie Evelyn
01:15:02to always be happy together.
01:15:06You see that?
01:15:07True love goes beyond romance.
01:15:15It's family.
01:15:17And no matter how much time has passed, she's never stopped loving us.
01:15:21Uncle Jason's amazing!
01:15:23Maybe one day you can be just like him.
01:15:25Nope.
01:15:26I want to be like Auntie Evelyn.
01:15:28I'll be a space scientist.
01:15:29No matter how much time has passed, she's never stopped loving us.
01:15:35You would have thought that rat would turn into someone like this.
01:15:38It's four, three, two, one.
01:15:43The simulation worked.
01:15:45Okay.
01:15:50Evelyn's idea is brilliant.
01:15:52And with the massive financial backing from the Miller Group patriarch himself,
01:15:56we might actually pull this off this time.
01:15:59Seventy years ago, our pioneers gazed up at the stars,
01:16:03believing them forever out of reach.
01:16:06Yet, today, those very stars lie beneath our feet.
01:16:10Let us press onward, ever forward.
01:16:13For ourselves, for those after us, for the world.
01:16:18Let's move forward.
01:16:20Steadily and with purpose.
01:16:21Steadily and with purpose.
01:16:23Steadily and with purpose.

01:16:45Steadily and with purpose.
