00:00Jonathan Asher, I knew it was you.
00:12Congratulations to the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature, Jonathan Asher.
00:17Well, thank you, but the award hasn't been signed quite yet. I'm still just a nominee.
00:21Darling, nobody's more deserving of the award than you.
00:24Oh, my God. Dad, did you propose already?
00:36Congratulations, Mr. Asher. I see you wasted no time.
00:40I'm overjoyed to be marrying Jonathan, but spending a million dollars on her ring is a little over the top, don't you think?
00:47In my humble opinion, only a woman as beautiful as Lillianne is worthy of an author as talented as you, Jonathan.
00:56You two really make a beautiful couple.
01:00By the way, I heard you separated from Roy Publishing. Maybe in the future we could work together?
01:06You can speak to me about any future book deals.
01:09I'm also Jonathan's agent.
01:11Dad, we've invited all of our friends in the media. Tomorrow's front pages will be plastered with your breaking news.
01:21Today you will bring Roy Publishing House up to its knees.
01:24During my acceptance speech, I am going to announce the scandalous affair of Anne and Henry,
01:32and I'm going to knock those two bastards right off their high horse.
01:37Welcome, ladies and gentlemen.
01:45Thank you for attending our prestigious awards ceremony.
01:50Now, for tonight's main event,
01:53please join me in welcoming this year's recipient of the Nobel Prize in Literature,
01:59the author of the critically acclaimed novel, The Burning Bush,
02:05Mr. Jonathan Asher.
02:07Please, come to the table.
02:09Excuse me.
02:32Jonathan Asher is a fraud.
02:35Who is this woman?
02:44What kind of person causes a scene as such a prestigious award?
02:48Oh, my God.
02:49I know her.
02:51That's Jonathan's ex-wife.
02:56Mom?
02:56What are you doing here?
02:58This is the Nobel Prize awards ceremony.
03:01I'm warning you.
03:02Don't start anything.
03:03Naturally, I'm here at this award ceremony in my role as chairwoman of Roy Publishing.
03:10Ah, I know what she's doing.
03:13Jonathan, she got all dressed up so she could barge in here to this event and beg for me to take her back.
03:20In all honesty, a spatula and an apron better suits you.
03:26And if she thinks she can compete with a stunner like you, she's sorely mistaken.
03:36Oh, babe, you are too sweet.
03:44Oh, in case you haven't heard, your husband, oh no, your ex-husband, has already proposed to me.
03:53Just days ago, you were begging to grow old with me and now you've already proposed to another woman?
04:01Talk about jumping the gun.
04:03Now that I'm free of you, you filthy gold digger, I've decided to move on with my life.
04:09Start a new one.
04:10On our first day officially together, he gave me this million-dollar pen and ring.
04:17What did you get after 25 years?
04:21A plastic hotel pen.
04:27Go ahead and laugh.
04:30Once I take back everything that belongs to me, you won't be laughing anymore.
04:35Hey, you have nothing that belongs to you anymore.
04:39Your husband, your child, the home that you put your whole life and soul into.
04:47It's all mine.
04:49Everything that belongs to you?
04:52Oh, come on in.
04:54Good luck with that.
04:55We don't owe you anything.
04:59Dad is a Nobel Prize laureate now.
05:02Bet you're having some regrets, Mom.
05:04But it's too late.
05:06Even without you, Mr. Asher's reputation will let us dominate the publishing world.
05:12Are you sure about that?
05:15Don't try to bluff, Mom.
05:17Everyone knows Dad is the true pillar of Roy Publishing House.
05:21Ever since you kicked out your biggest author, now you're going to be the laughingstock of the entire publishing world.
05:27Miss Roy, you really shouldn't have gone against us.
05:30Your biggest mistake was believing you were more than just a sheltered housewife.
05:35So because I was a housewife, you all think it's okay to humiliate me?
05:42I mean, look around, Mom.
05:45Everyone's here because they believe in Dad.
05:48His reputation.
05:50His prestige.
05:51They all just want to revel in his success.
05:55You know the company can't survive without him.
05:59So you're all here to grab a piece of Jonathan Asher's glorious reputation.
06:07Well, there's just one little problem.
06:10It's all fake.
06:11What do you mean by that?
06:17Oh, she's a lonely, vengeful ex-wife trying to bleed her ex-husband dry.
06:24How pathetic.
06:28I'm guessing that she neglected her husband during her marriage.
06:31And now that she's tossed aside, she's finally regretting it.
06:35What an ignorant woman.
06:39Jonathan, did you forget how your books were actually written?
06:44The acknowledgements you wrote at the front.
06:46The acknowledgements were written for me.
06:49I'm Jonathan's real muse.
06:52After he ditched his basic orange housewife like you,
06:56now Jonathan can be inspired to write even better novels.
07:04His real muse.
07:07That's beautiful.
07:08Did you inspire him with all of your lacy underwear?
07:14You think you can humiliate me?
07:17Look at me.
07:19I'm gorgeous.
07:21Seductive.
07:22Like a luxury purse.
07:25And you're just a filthy kitchen rat.
07:34Jonathan, it seems that you haven't told your new fiancé the truth yet.
07:38But don't worry.
07:40I can do that right now.
07:41The truth is that the copyrights to Jonathan Asher's novels do not belong to him.
07:54That's right.
07:55The copyrights were transferred to me.
07:58We wanted to make sure you didn't get one cent from the royalties.
08:03You transferred the copyrights to your mistress?
08:06I've known you for 25 years, and in all those 25 years you were a stingy miser.
08:11Lily's my true love.
08:12And she's now my fiancé, so everything that belongs to me belongs to her.
08:17Mr. Asher, you're a real romantic.
08:22And it was all my idea, Mom.
08:24Now that we kicked you out of the house, don't even think about coming for our wealth.
08:34You hit me.
08:35I can't believe you just hit me.
08:38I should have taught you a lesson a long time ago.
08:40Then maybe you would have grown into a person who knows right from wrong.
08:44Get off.
08:45Jonathan, you, you're the boldest liar of them all.
08:50You know damn well that those copyrights belong to me.
08:55You have no right to transfer them to your whore.
09:01Jonathan, what is she talking about?
09:04Oh, God, don't...
09:05Didn't you write all of your own novels?
09:07I don't believe some ravings of a madwoman, darling.
09:11This is your last warning.
09:16If you don't get the hell out of here, you are going to regret.
09:21I'm not going anywhere.
09:24Today, I'm exposing the truth.
09:28Jonathan?
09:29Hmm?
09:30What in the world is she talking about?
09:35Here it goes.
09:41Good evening, everyone.
10:01As tonight has been so inconveniently hijacked by this woman,
10:09I suppose it's appropriate to introduce you.
10:13Everyone, this is my ex-wife, Anne.
10:16For 25 years, I have worked like a dog
10:20to provide you with a life of luxury.
10:24Meanwhile,
10:26she
10:27and former CEO
10:31of Roy Publishing House,
10:33Mr. Henry Harper,
10:36have been having a sordid affair.
10:41Since then,
10:43the two
10:43have conspired
10:45to oust myself,
10:49my lovely daughter Olivia,
10:50out of the company
10:51and blacklist us
10:53from the industry.
10:59She's handing Harper's mistress?
11:01Betraying her husband
11:02and her daughter?
11:03I was shameless.
11:06I never wanted to expose you like Miss Anne.
11:08You did all our years together.
11:10But today, you took it too far.
11:12Coming in here,
11:14tarnishing my reputation.
11:16So don't blame me
11:18for exposing your secret affair
11:20to the press.
11:22You brought this on yourself.
11:24Jonathan!
11:26How dare you try and twist the facts like this?
11:29Have you no shame?
11:31You shouldn't have come here today.
11:32Now the whole world knows
11:35you're a cheating slut.
11:37Who's gonna believe
11:38your empty accusations now?
11:41So, if I got this right,
11:44the CEO and chairwoman
11:45of an elite publishing house
11:47had an affair.
11:49And then I'll save you
11:50from the company
11:50as revenge for uncovering it?
11:52Oh!
11:53This is a huge suit.
11:57Once the news breaks,
11:59Roy Publishing House's
11:59stocks are going to plummet.
12:03What are you gonna tell
12:04the board members then?
12:06I got it all planned out.
12:12You're willing to tell
12:13outright lies about me
12:14to destroy me
12:15and all just for money?
12:17You need to understand
12:18that ruining you
12:19is easier than lifting my pen.
12:22This is what you need
12:25to learn your place.
12:27What happened to you?
12:29You're a monster.
12:30Sir, just admit
12:31that you lost, Anne.
12:34I could destroy you
12:35right now,
12:36but I won't.
12:37Given our years together,
12:38if you can shut your mouth
12:40and be the subservient
12:41housewife that you once were,
12:43I may take it easy on you.
12:46You think you're so clever.
12:52You disgust me.
12:56Acclaimed guests,
12:58I came here today
12:59to expose a dirty lie.
13:01All of Jonathan Asher's novels
13:03were actually written
13:04by me.
13:09I, his wife of 25 years,
13:11am the true author
13:12of all of his books.
13:13This woman
13:16is crazy.
13:19Ever since I divorced her,
13:21she's been having
13:21a mental breakdown.
13:23She is hallucinating
13:24that she wrote
13:26all my novels.
13:27The truth is,
13:29she can't accept the fact
13:30that her life,
13:33it's a matter to nothing.
13:35I can testify to that.
13:36My dad wrote
13:37all those books.
13:38That's the absolute truth.
13:39Exactly.
13:40Exactly.
13:41Mr. Asher is the author.
13:42Of course Jonathan
13:43wrote all of his own novels.
13:46I'm the inspiration
13:47for his masterpiece.
13:49That's right, my darling.
13:51I wrote
13:51every single line.
13:57Every single line
13:59was written for you?
14:01You're delusional.
14:02You lunatic.
14:04You don't have
14:04a shred of evidence.
14:06Who's going to believe
14:07your empty accusations?
14:09Oh, you'd like
14:09to see the evidence.
14:10can't present evidence?
14:13Then this
14:14counts as defamation
14:15and I'll put you
14:16in prison.
14:18Miss Roy?
14:19You should leave.
14:21Otherwise,
14:22we're going to have
14:23to teach you a lesson.
14:24I've already said
14:25I'm not leaving
14:26until I take back
14:27everything the Aschers
14:28took from me.
14:30Everything
14:30we took
14:32from you.
14:34clean this up,
14:58housewife.
14:59Maybe it'll help
15:04you remember
15:05your place.
15:09You know,
15:10second thought,
15:11why don't you
15:12come on over here?
15:13Crawl.
15:14Shine my shoes
15:15like you used to
15:16and then maybe
15:17I can get you
15:17some work
15:18as our new maid.
15:19Look at Johnny
15:23trying to help
15:23you find a job.
15:25You can be a maid
15:26for everyone here.
15:34Go on.
15:35Show them all
15:36how good you are
15:36at cleaning.
15:37Yeah.
15:38Look at her.
15:39She really is
15:40having a mental breakdown.
15:41If you ask me,
15:42she should have
15:43cut her losses
15:43and left way earlier.
15:46Cleaning up messes
15:47like this
15:47is all you're good for.
15:49Dressing up,
15:50trying to steal
15:51everybody's attention,
15:52it doesn't suit you.
15:58Center of attention
15:59suits me just fine.
16:01But you're right,
16:02I am good at cleaning.
16:03And since this place
16:04is absolutely filthy,
16:06I'm not opposed
16:07to doing a big cleanup.
16:13Wow.
16:13She's really pulling
16:15off that filthy
16:15housekeeper look.
16:18What the fuck?
16:27You fucking crazy woman!
16:33I, Anne Roy,
16:34stand before you today
16:36reclaiming everything
16:37that belongs to me.
16:39I am taking back
16:40every single thing
16:41that I have sacrificed
16:42over the past
16:43two and a half decades
16:44and nothing less.
16:47How dare she attack
16:49tonight's guest of honor?
16:50She's really lost her mind.
16:53Mom, what the hell?
16:54How could you
16:54splash that shit
16:55all over them?
16:56She'd always been like this.
16:58A boulder shrew.
16:59Your dirty secret?
17:01Tomorrow, it's gonna hit
17:02the front headlines
17:03and you deserve it.
17:04Not only are you
17:05an adulterer,
17:06but you stole
17:07the stocks that
17:08rightfully belong
17:09to myself and Olivia.
17:11Then you come here
17:12to ruin
17:13the Nobel Prize ceremony.
17:16I'll testify
17:16on dad's behalf.
17:17You're a cheater
17:18and a thief.
17:19You're really screwed up
17:20now,
17:21Miss Roy.
17:21The negative press
17:22is gonna absolutely
17:24ruin
17:25Boy Publishing House.
17:29Jonathan,
17:30you have deluded
17:32even yourself.
17:34You forget that
17:35everything you possess
17:36is built on lies.
17:38Stop fighting.
17:38You don't have
17:40any evidence.
17:42You can't take me down
17:43with your empty accusation.
17:45That's where you're wrong,
17:46dear husband.
17:47I do have evidence
17:48and I'm going to show it
17:49to everyone
17:50right now.
17:57Inside this box
17:58are the original manuscripts
18:00for all
18:01of my novels.
18:03Oh my God.
18:04The original manuscripts?
18:06If she's telling the truth,
18:07this is huge news.
18:10No, no.
18:11No, she,
18:11you're lying.
18:12You're lying.
18:14I burned
18:15your manuscripts.
18:16I burned every single page
18:17in that entire house.
18:18I know.
18:19You have nothing.
18:22Johnny,
18:23what did you just say?
18:25I said,
18:26I said there,
18:26there are no,
18:27there's no such thing
18:28as original manuscripts.
18:29See,
18:30you are forging evidence now
18:31and I'm going to sue you.
18:32That's right.
18:33They must be forged.
18:34Stop lying.
18:35Miss Roy?
18:36Are you sure
18:37you burned everything?
18:39What if a few pages
18:40were left for me?
18:41Right, Kent?
18:43No.
18:44No way.
18:45No,
18:45we were there.
18:45You were all there.
18:46We burned everything.
18:47You saw him.
18:49Shut up.
18:52You fucking idiot.
18:54Jonathan,
18:55what's really going on here?
18:58Did she really write
18:59old novels
19:00and listen to that
19:01delusional nonsense?
19:02She's taking shots
19:03in the dark.
19:05Yeah.
19:06What's in that box?
19:07Cookie recipes?
19:08I know you're trying
19:08to use it as evidence,
19:10but we won't fool
19:10that easily.
19:12That box is probably
19:13empty for all we know.
19:15Since you all
19:15still doubt me,
19:17why don't I open it
19:18and show everyone?
19:26What are those?
19:28Little scraps
19:29for your silly little
19:30crafting projects?
19:34I told you
19:35I didn't save anything.
19:37We lived with my mother
19:38for 25 years.
19:40She's just a desperate,
19:42delusional housewife
19:43trying to pass off
19:44my father's talent
19:45as her own.
19:46That's right.
19:47How can a housewife
19:48write masterpieces
19:49like Mr. Asher?
19:51And she almost
19:51fooled us all.
19:52Looks like she's all
19:53bark and no bite.
19:54You've crashed
19:58my award ceremony.
19:59You slandered
20:00my reputation
20:01and you don't have
20:01a shred of evidence.
20:03All you've got
20:03are your empty accusations.
20:05So don't blame me
20:07for sending you
20:08straight to jail.
20:13Security!
20:15Get this woman!
20:19Wait!
20:19Wait, wait, wait!
20:24This is part
20:25of the manuscript
20:25of the burning bush!
20:33It looks like
20:34written on all
20:35these scraps of papers
20:36are parts of
20:36the original manuscripts
20:38from all of
20:39Mr. Asher's
20:40award-winning novels!
20:42Oh my God!
20:43Is she actually
20:44the real author
20:45of those books?
20:46What a plot twist!
20:48Johnny?
20:50Please explain
20:51those manuscripts
20:52scrap.
20:57Those are my
20:58manuscripts,
20:58scrap.
20:59I, you know,
21:00have this funny habit
21:01where I take notes
21:02whenever inspiration
21:03scrap.
21:05That's right!
21:06Those are my
21:07dad's manuscripts.
21:08His writing style
21:09is unconventional.
21:15Jonathan,
21:16since you admit
21:17that these are
21:18the original
21:19manuscripts,
21:20we can determine
21:21the true author
21:21through a handwriting
21:23analysis.
21:24I have nothing
21:24to hide,
21:25and I would relish
21:27the opportunity
21:28to prove you wrong,
21:30but everybody knows
21:31that takes
21:32a forensic expert.
21:34No fraud
21:35would agree
21:35to that.
21:37Mom,
21:38you're grasping
21:39at straws.
21:40Just let it go.
21:43Hurry up
21:45and throw her
21:45out!
21:47Actually,
21:48we have
21:49a forensic
21:50handwriting expert
21:51here,
21:52one of our
21:53honored guests.
21:54Perhaps
21:55they could do
21:56the handwriting
21:57comparison.
22:04The results
22:05of the restoration
22:06just came in.
22:07It looks like
22:07we were able
22:08to find
22:08what you
22:09were looking
22:09for.
22:21Yeah.
22:22That's great.
22:24I gotta run.
22:25Thank you so much.
22:25The results
22:50of the restoration
22:50just came out.
22:52Good.
22:52I'll be waiting.
22:53Well,
22:54I hope that was
22:54your little lover
22:55rushing over
22:56to help you.
22:57If so,
22:57it'll be easier
22:58to put you
22:58both in jail.
22:59Are you so sure
22:59that I'm the one
23:00getting arrested?
23:01Oh,
23:01stop laughing.
23:03Mom.
23:04Soon,
23:05you'll have
23:06nothing to laugh about.
23:07Those little
23:07scraps of paper
23:09don't prove
23:10anything.
23:11You brought
23:12this upon yourself,
23:13Anne.
23:13You used to have
23:14a luxurious life
23:15being taken care of,
23:17but your stubborn
23:18and jealous
23:19little heart
23:19has cost you
23:21everything.
23:22You used to have
23:23a sweet husband,
23:24a loving family,
23:26big house,
23:27nice car.
23:28I could go on.
23:30You were even
23:31the heiress
23:32to an elite
23:33publishing company.
23:35Roy Publishing
23:35was at its peak
23:36when Mr. Asher
23:38was set to become
23:39CEO.
23:40But now,
23:43you're stocked.
23:43Your stock?
23:47Both professionally
23:48implicit.
23:53The results
23:55of the handwriting
23:56analysis
23:56are out.
24:01According
24:02to this analysis,
24:03the handwriting
24:04on the manuscripts
24:05of the burning bush
24:06and the other
24:0716 novels
24:08all belong
24:10to
24:10Anne
24:13Lord.
24:19You only
24:20burned the
24:20manuscripts
24:21that I had
24:21recompiled.
24:22The originals
24:23were written
24:24over the course
24:25of 25 years
24:26whenever
24:26and wherever
24:27I could find
24:28a moment.
24:29All while I
24:30served this family
24:30as a dedicated
24:31wife and mother.
24:36Oh my God,
24:37this is so exciting.
24:38I think I'm having
24:39a heart attack.
24:40This proves nothing.
24:41anyone could
24:43have copied
24:44dad's books
24:44down on
24:45sticky notes.
24:48New scripts
24:49were written
24:50on receipts,
24:51greeting cards,
24:52newspaper margins.
24:54All of them
24:54clearly dated
24:56spanning the course
24:57of two and a half
24:58decades.
25:02Johnny,
25:02you can't
25:03let her do this.
25:04You have to
25:05explain.
25:10Don't oversell
25:11yourself
25:11all those
25:12menial house
25:13tasks you did
25:13back home.
25:15They're just like
25:16you.
25:19Worthless.
25:28I'll be there
25:29as soon as I can,
25:30man.
25:30I'll be there
25:30as soon as I can,
25:32man.
25:32Oh, man.
25:46Look at you.
25:47You're so emotionally
25:48unstable that you're
25:51going to cry over a
25:52bunch of scraps of
25:53paper.
25:54You are a stay-at-home
25:56housewife.
25:57You've had nothing
25:58but time to sit
25:59and doodle and
26:00copy down my
26:01manuscripts.
26:02What, you think
26:02just proves anything?
26:03You could have been
26:03just copying my
26:04novels before
26:05they're even
26:05published.
26:06He has a point
26:08and must have
26:09secretly copied
26:10down Jonathan's
26:11manuscript.
26:13Clearly crazy
26:15obsessed with
26:15dad.
26:16Emphasis on the
26:17crazy.
26:18She probably
26:18copied down his
26:19manuscript whenever
26:20she had time.
26:21I've seen her do
26:22it with my own
26:22two eyes.
26:24Oh, that's what
26:25it was.
26:26Everything makes
26:27sense now.
26:28What a psychotic
26:29woman.
26:30She's trying to
26:31ruin him because
26:31she can't have
26:32him.
26:37Do you hear
26:38that?
26:39You thought
26:40you were so clever.
26:43Now get down
26:45on your knees.
26:47Polish my shoes
26:48till they sparkle.
26:50You made you
26:51a mess.
26:52housewife.
26:55I cleaned up.
26:59You have no idea
27:00how badly you
27:01regret this.
27:02And hold on.
27:04I'm almost there.
27:07Everything I've
27:08ever wanted
27:09I've achieved.
27:11Money,
27:13prestige,
27:14a fantastic
27:15lover.
27:16I've got it all.
27:17You're the one
27:18who should be
27:20regretting
27:20the choices
27:22you have
27:23nothing.
27:26Mom,
27:27you can't blame
27:29anyone but
27:29yourself.
27:30You chose
27:32to be a housewife
27:33and you should
27:34have chosen
27:35to spend more
27:35time trying to
27:36keep your
27:36husband's attention.
27:37You're right.
27:40I did choose this.
27:43And I don't
27:44regret being a
27:44stay-at-home mom.
27:46Nothing gave me
27:47more pleasure
27:48than making sure
27:49that my family
27:50was loved
27:51and cared for.
27:53Now that I'm
27:54chairwoman again,
27:55I'll nurture
27:56Roy Publishing
27:57in much the same way.
27:59I am going to
28:00reorganize this company,
28:02establish better
28:02standards,
28:03and make sure
28:04to blacklist
28:04toxic people
28:05like the
28:06Ashers.
28:09Oh, come on.
28:10Stop dreaming,
28:11Anne.
28:11The writing's
28:12on the wall.
28:13Roy Publishing
28:14House is
28:15done for.
28:16Let me get
28:16this right.
28:17You think
28:18the industry
28:18should trust
28:19a homeless,
28:21helpless,
28:22divorced
28:22failure of a
28:23housewife
28:23to establish
28:24better standards?
28:25You couldn't
28:28even keep
28:28your own
28:28house in order.
28:30They'll trust
28:31Anne Roy.
28:33They'll trust
28:34the heiress
28:34of the Roy Empire
28:35and the true
28:36author of this
28:38company's
28:38best-selling books.
28:39And your delusions
28:40long enough.
28:43Go spout
28:44your crazy
28:44nonsense elsewhere.
28:46Charity,
28:46what are you
28:47waiting for?
28:49Don't touch her.
28:55Sorry I'm late.
28:57No.
28:58You're right
28:59on time.
29:06Oh, good.
29:07Now little
29:08lover boy
29:08has finally
29:09arrived.
29:10We can send
29:11the two lovebirds
29:12to the police
29:12station together.
29:15Well, you are
29:16right to assume
29:16that someone's
29:18going to jail
29:18tonight.
29:19Oh, Mr.
29:20Harper.
29:21I know you
29:22just arrived,
29:23so you probably
29:24haven't heard,
29:24but you two
29:26are done for.
29:28Once news of
29:29your filthy affair
29:30gets out,
29:31the board members
29:32will kick you
29:32both out of the
29:33company.
29:34Then Mr.
29:35Asher will be
29:36asked to take
29:37over as
29:38CEO.
29:41It's a pretty
29:41good plan you
29:42got there,
29:43except for one
29:43little hiccup.
29:44Anne predicted
29:45everything you
29:45were going to
29:46do one step
29:46ahead the whole
29:47time.
29:48She even planned
29:49a little surprise
29:50for this exact
29:51occasion.
29:54This here is a
29:56report from a
29:57forensic trace
29:57analyst.
29:58We recovered
29:59some shards of
30:00a Burt manuscript
30:01from the Asher
30:02family fireplace,
30:03and it confirms
30:05the aldermen's
30:05and the Burt
30:06writing,
30:07and the results
30:07confirmed the
30:08handwriting and
30:09all the papers
30:09in there were
30:10that of Miss
30:12Anne Roy.
30:12That's impossible!
30:23Those ashy scraps,
30:24you can't test
30:25those!
30:25They're worthless!
30:27Shh, shh,
30:27that's not all.
30:28Hold on.
30:29We also recovered
30:30deleted footage from
30:32your security cameras
30:33in your house,
30:34which showed you
30:35throwing all the
30:37manuscripts in the
30:37fire, clearly.
30:39Johnny, you never
30:41did that, right?
30:43The result must be
30:44forged!
30:45That's impossible.
30:46No, no, no, no,
30:48no, no, no, no, no.
30:49These, these have
30:50been forged!
30:51This is ridiculous!
30:53How low can you
30:54go, Mom?
30:55Outright forgery?
30:56They're trying to
30:57trick us!
30:58You two are frauds!
31:00Only an idiot would
31:01be convinced by some
31:02trumped-up report!
31:04Rip it up all you
31:04want, that's just
31:05one of, like,
31:06many, many copies.
31:08It's time, Henry.
31:10Time to crush their
31:11hopes.
31:13It would be my
31:14pleasure.
31:18Ewen, she released
31:19the news of Jonathan's
31:20scandal.
31:21Please, I'm on it.
31:29Bluffing, you fool!
31:31How far you think
31:32your fake news is
31:33gonna get?
31:33You know how high up
31:34my friends are in the
31:35media?
31:37It won't get past
31:39their desk.
31:43Oh, it's the top!
31:44All of our media
31:55contacts have cut ties
31:57with us.
31:58They're releasing
31:59headlines that say
32:00you used a ghostwriter
32:01on the front page!
32:04Ladies and gentlemen,
32:05I've just received
32:06official word after
32:07reviewing the evidence
32:09provided by Miss Roy.
32:10The Nobel Prize
32:12jury has reason
32:13to believe that
32:14all of Mr. Asher's
32:16novels were
32:17ghostwritten by her.
32:21They have
32:22subsequently decided
32:23to revoke
32:24Mr. Asher's
32:25award.
32:27Additionally,
32:29he is banned
32:30from Nobel
32:31consideration
32:32for life.
32:34Oh, my God!
32:38No, you can't
32:39do this!
32:42This can't be
32:43happening.
32:44His career
32:46is down the drain
32:47now, and he's
32:47offended the most
32:48prestigious publishing
32:50house.
32:50Jonathan Asher
32:51and his family
32:52are absolutely
32:53done for.
32:54All 16 books
32:56you publish
32:56on your own
32:57were written
32:58by her.
33:02Of 16 books,
33:03did you write
33:04a single one?
33:06I wrote
33:06the acknowledgements.
33:09Oh, you wrote
33:10the acknowledgements.
33:15You liar!
33:17You ruined
33:18my life!
33:19You told me
33:20you wrote
33:21every single
33:22one of those books!
33:25How could I have
33:26believed a fraud
33:27like you?
33:29Dad?
33:30What are we
33:31going to do
33:32now?
33:32My business
33:33is going to
33:33go bust!
33:34You're going to
33:35kill me!
33:36No, darling,
33:38please, do not
33:39worry about your
33:40safety.
33:40I've already
33:41filed a lawsuit,
33:42and given this
33:43new evidence,
33:44you'll all be
33:44living in complete
33:46safety very soon.
33:49Behind prison
33:50bars.
33:53Dan,
33:54you've always
33:56been so nice.
33:57You're such a
33:58kind person.
33:59You don't really
33:59do this to us,
34:00right?
34:00Now get your
34:00filthy hands
34:01off.
34:06Don't sue us!
34:08But I was
34:09bewitched by
34:09this vixen!
34:13I always
34:14loved you.
34:17You can save
34:18your fake
34:18affection.
34:20It disgusts me.
34:21please give me
34:23another chance.
34:25If you go
34:25through with this,
34:26you'll ruin my
34:27life.
34:29You ruined
34:29your life all
34:30by yourself.
34:31I didn't need
34:32to help you
34:32with that.
34:37Please,
34:38I'm
34:38thanking you.
34:39You thought
34:47that you were
34:47destroying my
34:48work.
34:49But what you
34:50really destroyed
34:51was the last
34:52shred of affection
34:53that I had
34:53for this family.
34:57I wrote my
34:58manuscripts
34:58while making
34:59your meals,
35:01while changing
35:02our daughter's
35:03diapers,
35:04while making
35:05our house
35:05a home.
35:06every single
35:08word that I
35:08put down
35:09on that page
35:09is a testament
35:10to what I
35:11have done
35:11for this
35:12family.
35:14Every
35:14page,
35:16every book,
35:17every accolade
35:18belongs to
35:19me,
35:20Anne Royce.
35:23And you're
35:24just the
35:24parasites who
35:25feasted off
35:25my blood,
35:26sweat,
35:26and tears.
35:28Please,
35:29I'm
35:29thanking you.
35:33You can
35:34repent in
35:34jail.
35:36No,
35:46thanks to
35:46you,
35:47I'm
35:47thinking
35:48about
35:48maybe
35:48a
35:48promotion
35:49in your
35:49future.
35:53I'm a Nobel
35:53prize-winning
35:54author.
35:55I'll ghostwrite
35:55you a novel.
35:56I'll do
35:57anything you
35:57want.
35:57For food,
35:58or a place
35:59to sleep.
36:01Anything you
36:02want.
36:02Just sleep.
36:03Please,
36:03don't hurt me.
36:05Jonathan?
36:06I'll leave,
36:07I'll leave.
36:07God.
36:11Bye.
36:12I'm
36:12looking for
36:17me.
36:21I'm
36:22looking for
36:23me.
36:23I'm
36:23looking for
36:23me.
36:25I'm
36:25looking for
36:25you.
36:25I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you.
36:55Well, I spoke to the agent.
36:57Seems as though Olivia and Jonathan had a massive falling out.
37:01Jonathan sold his house, and Olivia fled to Mexico.
37:10I guess they couldn't do so well without you after all.
37:13That's no longer my concern.
37:23I love that sofa.
37:25I used to lie there when I would write.
37:29And the dining room table, oh.
37:32No matter how many times I bumped it, whatever I spilled on it, it would just wipe right up.
37:39Did you know that I designed the kitchen?
37:42You did.
37:43I did not know that.
37:44Oppressive.
37:46I used to love cooking in there.
37:48Did you ever want to cook in there again?
37:49Has a buyer?
37:54I don't understand.
37:55How can I cook in someone else's kitchen?
37:58I'm the buyer.
38:02I bought the house for you.
38:03After all the love and time you put me in this home, only you deserve to have it.
38:11Henry, that...
38:13I can't accept that kind of gift.
38:16It's too much.
38:17Hold on, because there's more.
38:19Anne, in this life I will never let you down.
38:22I'll be loyal to you and our family.
38:29And I will be an amazing husband to you.
38:32Henry...
38:33Will you marry me?
38:38I don't know what to say.
38:45Say yes.
38:46Yes.
38:48Yes.
38:49Yes.
39:08I don't know what to say.
39:09I don't know what to say.
39:10I don't know what to say.
39:11I don't know what to say.
39:12I don't know what to say.
39:13I don't know what to say.
39:14I don't know what to say.
39:15I don't know what to say.
39:16I don't know what to say.
39:17I don't know what to say.
39:18I don't know what to say.
39:19I don't know what to say.
39:20I don't know what to say.
39:21I don't know what to say.
39:22I don't know what to say.
39:23I don't know what to say.
39:24I don't know what to say.
39:25I don't know what to say.
39:26I don't know what to say.
39:27I don't know what to say.
39:28I don't know what to say.
39:29I don't know what to say.
