00:08going to make her raise my baby. I'm going to raise her in hell. What a good best friend you
00:17turned out to be. We raised Phoebe. There's no way she's yours. DNA test doesn't lie. Like it
00:23or not, this is happening. If none of you wanted me, why was I even born? Have any of you ever
00:30thought about how we feel? This was never about the kids. It's about the company. 18 years
00:36you never once thought of me. You left me no choice. Every step you took was exactly where
00:42I wanted you. Did you really think that as a mother, I'd stand by and let you steal my daughter?
00:48To see you in the coma. Wake up. This is about you and me. It was not about the kids. You
00:56want to put on a show? Fine. I'll play along. I'd like to see you try and hurt my daughter.

23:49claire i get it letting go hurts you look at lucy and you don't see the daughter you dreamed of
23:55but i'm phoebe's mother i'm only taking back what's rightfully mine don't listen to her claire we
24:02raised phoebe we were there for every step every skinned knee that doesn't just disappear because of
24:07a few words and a piece of paper claire you gave that girl your life i mean we all saw it your time
24:13your heart all of it everything phoebe is that's because of you you don't just throw that away and
24:21give it to someone like her
24:25edith that's the report give it to me
24:32edith what if that doesn't say what you think it does what if you're wrong
24:37phoebe's mine if you don't believe me why don't you test shut you up
24:59phoebe you're my daughter you've always been mine no no that's not
25:07possible this can't be right
25:21what the hell phoebe's not edith's daughter that means we never search them
25:28our whole plan is backfired phoebe already has wg shares edith and i busted our asses for this
25:34phoebe has to be edith's daughter she has to be
25:43back then i swear you can see it with your own eyes
25:47phoebe's mine
25:58are you out of your damn mind that's not how this works i'm not i mean i i get it that you've
26:07gotten close to phoebe but she's my biological daughter i've already lost 18 years with her and i
26:14i just i just want to make it up to you no no mom please don't leave me
26:28mrs watts my brother-in-law died working for you you promised you'd look after my sister and her
26:34daughter now she wants her kid back what's so wrong with that claire you're a mom too
26:41you know how deep mother's love can run exactly that's why i'd never hand my daughter over to
26:50someone like you because this is a fake
27:01what are you talking about that's right you seriously thought you could take her from us
27:05with a fake report this is ridiculous i mean what proof do you have that it's a fake claire i know
27:23this is hard for you but you can't just accuse my brother of fraud there's no way he would risk
27:28jail with a fake dna cat exactly everyone wants phoebe now but lucy she's the one my sister raised
27:34for 18 years you think we just tossed her away unless we were absolutely sure that she wasn't ours
27:40raised her you call that raising your child as long as i've known you you've hit her like a hundred
27:46times right in front of us and that's not even counting the night you've locked her up starved her
27:50and treated her like she wasn't even human eat you little mutt what are you waiting for
28:06mom can i please have a real room like phoebe is
28:10baby's everything that you'll never be you're not worth the floor she walks on so it's either this or the street
28:28you lazy bitch i told you to clean phoebe's room how dare you slap off
28:41be honest with yourself have you ever treated lucy like your daughter i was strict because i cared it
28:47was for her own good that's enough if the test is real a second one will confirm it but yours was done
28:56in private so why don't we do another one right here right now in front of everyone that way no one
29:04will question it again what do you say edith you in sure why not do the test a hundred times steve is
29:14still mine perfect let's go to the hospital right now no
29:19what's wrong josh you look guilty as hell right now no
29:35another test might be too much for them you know emotionally that's unexpectedly
29:40possible
29:45all right there's a fair right if you want to drag lucy through this again fine
29:52i think it's true enough look i get it
30:02even if the truth isn't blue messy the girls can still stay with you they'd still be living with
30:07you in the same house oh and we just pretend like none of this has ever happened how's that even
30:17i get it you're embarrassed that lucy might actually be your daughter
30:24i don't care if phoebe's biologically ours or not she's the one we raised the one we poured
30:41everything into she's shark driven going places and lucy look at her look what you turned her into
30:47maybe i wasn't the perfect mother but all i really want is to hear my real daughter call me mom
30:56is that too much to ask oh please cut the act if this was really about reuniting with your daughter
31:02why not do it in private why today why phoebe's birthday you walked in here waving that dna test
31:11like it was some kind of prize seems like she just wants a piece of phoebe's success that's why
31:17she's so eager to throw lucy away seriously who celebrates the baby switch like they just hit
31:23the lottery that's just messed up so tell me edith was it really about being a mother or was it just
31:29a shortcut to the top i don't know what you're talking about what the hell are you trying to say
31:34claire i know i didn't give lucy the life that she deserved but that doesn't change the fact she's your
31:41biological daughter if you could just accept her maybe this could get better for lucy oh give me
31:49a break is that what this is really about helping lucy or are you just trying to steal our daughter
31:54and take over claire's company while you're at it watch it throwing out false accusations like that
32:03that's um oh felony none of us wanted this baby swap nobody claire i thought we were best friends
32:12my husband died driving for you lucy and i we have worked for your family for 18 years without a
32:18single complaint how could you think that i would plot against you yeah after my brother-in-law died
32:25i stepped in i drove for your family every single day for years doesn't that count for something you
32:33raised phoebe you've made her the company's biggest shareholder even if she's my biological daughter
32:40i will never let her forget what you've done for her she'll never forget please first thing i'm doing
32:47is kicking your ass out of that company claire you're done so all of this is just about switching
32:55the kids back claire lucy may not be perfect but i've raised her this is hard on me too but what
33:03choice do we have i already lost 18 years with phoebe i don't want to lose another second
33:10claire you're my best friend my husband's gone oh my god is to spend the rest of my life with my real
33:18daughter just one simple humble wish please don't take that from me please mrs walter
33:31so we fair do you want to put on a show fine i'll play along let's see how long
33:37what have you lost your mind mom what are you talking about maybe they've got a point if the kids
33:56were really switched to birth maybe they should go back to where they belong you're kidding me right
34:03you're gonna hand our daughter over to a manipulative lunatic over some shady dna test
34:08of course not i meant i knew you'd come around don't worry i will raise phoebe right no i'm her
34:14father you don't just toss your kid away because of a lab result mr lyons your wife already agreed
34:20and the dna test doesn't lie so like it or not this is happening this is what's already transferred

38:15the hatred that you've had for me for years you hated me for making it ceo respected all while you
38:22stayed the secretary you hated watching me succeed so you thought you'd hit me where it hurt most
38:30torturing the girl that you thought was mine every bruise every slap every time that you made her back

38:47knew for years and you just stood there and let that bitch torture our daughter for 18 years
38:52i thought she was a good mom turns out she's a sociopath you saw us switch the baby did nothing you just
39:02let it happen maybe you wanted lucy god maybe you were ashamed of her you made this happen on purpose
39:10and there it is the truth slipping right out of your mouth oh i wanted to see how far you'd go
