00:00:00This breakthrough in nuclear navigation technology, by order of the president, she is awarded the Department of Defense's Distinguished Science Service Award.
00:00:21You might be me forever.
00:00:25Dr. Carter!
00:00:26Richie, watch out!
00:00:29Richie, watch out!
00:00:43Who's that girl?
00:00:44Did she seriously fall asleep at the party?
00:00:47Where...
00:00:49Where am I?
00:00:51That's Vivian, Mr. Carter's daughter from his first marriage.
00:00:56Eighteen years in some small town and won't move back to Bay City about two months ago after her mom died.
00:01:02So I'm possessing this girl?
00:01:05The same name in everything.
00:01:08Vivian!
00:01:09There you are!
00:01:10Sis!
00:01:11You should try some.
00:01:12Oh!
00:01:13Oh!
00:01:14Oh!
00:01:15Oh!
00:01:16Oh!
00:01:17Vivian, there you are! Sis, you should try some.
00:01:33Butterfingers. Oh well, it's imported anyway, and I don't expect a hick from the country to know how to appreciate it.
00:01:47Sorry. Butterfingers too. WTF. Are you insane? Enjoy the drink. Though I suppose you city folk are much more used to simpler tastes. Now you want more?
00:02:11Oh my god, how trashy. I can't believe Mr. Carter raised such a daughter.
00:02:18Funny how none of you had anything to say when she was messing with me.
00:02:24And now you're all Emily Post experts on that.
00:02:27How much Sterling is here?
00:02:29He looks just like money.
00:02:59How... How does this Alex look exactly like my husband? If Jonathan hadn't died before I did, I would swear.
00:03:10Alex. The heir to the Sterling Empire. Cash.
00:03:15Sterling? The same last name? Dear god, is he my family?
00:03:22Hey, what is your relationship to Richard Sterling?
00:03:29Did you just address him by his grandfather's name? How inappropriate.
00:03:33Mr. Sterling, oh please forgive her. She comes from a small town. She doesn't have many manners. She meant no offense.
00:03:41How dare you use the head of the board's first name. Apologize to Mr. Sterling now.
00:03:46Head of the board? Richie? So can this young man be my great-grandson?
00:03:56Is Richard still alive?
00:03:58How dare you be so disrespectful?
00:04:03My grandfather is in excellent health. Thank you.
00:04:08Mr. Carter, it seems you've raised quite the bold daughter.
00:04:12Oh, well, Mr. Sterling, she's still just a child. She doesn't know him.
00:04:16My son. He's alive. I have to see him.
00:04:22How did your mother raise you? You are a disgrace to the Carter family.
00:04:27Did he just knock her out? That's excessive, Mr. Carter.
00:04:37Yeah, that's your own daughter. That's going too far.
00:04:40What? I didn't even touch her.
00:04:42Get up. Come on.
00:04:52I guess I'm still getting used to this body.
00:04:55Richard, patriarch of the Sterling family, has been battling health issues and receiving treatment abroad for years.
00:05:06Oh, that birthmark.
00:05:10It's really my Richie.
00:05:14But how did my sweet little boy turn into a 70-year-old man in what seems like the blink of an eye?
00:05:22Will you hurry up?
00:05:23Ashley's been ready for ages and you're just sitting here, lounging around.
00:05:28Dad, don't be so hard on her. She's just a pick from the sticks.
00:05:34After all, her upbringing was so simple.
00:05:38I worked so hard to get us invited to the Sterling banquet and you just go on and insult Alex.
00:05:43I wonder how they're going to retaliate.
00:05:47Well, from what I remember, the Sterling family is very forgiving.
00:05:51Now, please leave. I need to change.
00:05:53I'm not done talking with you. Do you hear me?
00:05:58Do you hear me?
00:06:07Okay, okay.
00:06:12That look in her eyes, it was terrifying.
00:06:15I know, I know, not just for you.
00:06:17I was even scared.
00:06:19There's something in her eyes like experience, authority.
00:06:23Seems way beyond her years.
00:06:25She seems like a different person.
00:06:28What the hell is going on?
00:06:30High school physics? This is child's play.
00:06:41Wow.
00:06:44Look at this.
00:06:47Still doing homework after class?
00:06:50What a nerd.
00:06:53Hey everyone, look.
00:06:54NASA's next chief scientist is right here.
00:06:56And her only friends are textbooks and calculators.
00:07:04Stop.
00:07:06At least textbooks have substance.
00:07:09Unlike what's between your ears.
00:07:11You just wait until I tell my dad to send her back to the farm you crawled out of.
00:07:19Keep running to daddy cause it's literally all you're good at.
00:07:23Whatever.
00:07:33That Leo coming through!
00:07:35Oh my God, it's Leo!
00:07:42He's so hot!
00:07:43Pick it up.
00:07:51Oh.
00:07:53Sorry, are you giving me orders?
00:08:01Hey, new girl.
00:08:03Reality check.
00:08:04This incredible man right here is Liam.
00:08:08Alright?
00:08:09Campus King!
00:08:12Sterling?
00:08:13He couldn't be.
00:08:14No way.
00:08:16He's a smug jerk.
00:08:17This trust fund punk couldn't be in our family.
00:08:20She's cute but she's feisty.
00:08:22Show her who runs this place, Liam!
00:08:23Spice Liam!
00:08:26Whoever you are?
00:08:28I said, pick it up.
00:08:31And what if I don't?
00:08:42Oh my God!
00:08:43Oh my God!
00:08:45Bro?
00:08:49Four.
00:08:50Four.
00:08:51Four.
00:08:52So, are you still feeling tough?
00:08:54Like I said, pick it up.
00:08:58Up.
00:09:03I just got taken down by a girl?
00:09:07We cannot let her get away with that problem.
00:09:11You've been nothing but trouble.
00:09:14Skipping class, showing zero respect, and now you're picking on girls?
00:09:23Seems like it's time someone teaches you to listen.
00:09:28Okay, okay, okay, okay, we're gonna pick up the books.
00:09:37Why does a girly like you sound like some cranky grandma?
00:09:41It's called respect.
00:09:43Your grandma, or mom, should have disciplined you years ago.
00:09:48Consider it a lesson long overdue.
00:09:51I lost my parents.
00:09:53We're lucky for them, because if they were still around, we would have given them heart attacks by now.
00:10:00Whatever.
00:10:05Hey!
00:10:06Richard Sterling, head of the Sterling family, returned home today to recuperate.
00:10:18This estate was our wedding gift.
00:10:29Old money territory.
00:10:34You really know the people who live here?
00:10:36Just telling you, the truck is back.
00:10:39Word is he's back for treatment.
00:10:40Get out of the way.
00:10:41Just a few questions.
00:10:42Just a few questions, sir.
00:10:43Sir, can we get a statement about your help, sir?
00:10:44Sir!
00:10:45Sir!
00:10:46Please!
00:10:47Richie!
00:10:52Did someone just call me Richie?
00:10:55Who are you?
00:11:05The interviews are over.
00:11:06Please leave.
00:11:11I heard Mr. Sterling was seriously ill.
00:11:15Came to pay my respects.
00:11:17I hope you'll allow me to visit.
00:11:19Look, it's late.
00:11:21Okay?
00:11:22It's not possible.
00:11:23Please leave.
00:11:26If I'm correct, the combination to your family's most secure vault
00:11:31should be 694-OMEGA-71-ZB-30-J.
00:11:42How did you know that password?
00:11:44That's our family's security code for everything.
00:11:47Only me and my grandfather know that.
00:11:49We change it monthly.
00:11:51I don't understand how I got leaked.
00:11:53Do you want to, uh, tell me who you really are?
00:11:59You'll find out once Mr. Sterling wakes up.
00:12:04Now may I please visit?
00:12:06I designed that encryption system.
00:12:10Looks random, but actually date-based offsets.
00:12:13Elementary.
00:12:15Okay.
00:12:17Head to the side of the house.
00:12:18I'll let you in.
00:12:23Could Grandpa have told her?
00:12:24What's her connection to him?
00:12:25Mom!
00:12:26Look at this bubble.
00:12:27It's so pretty.
00:12:28The house is this way.
00:12:29Mom!
00:12:30Look at this bubble.
00:12:31It's so pretty.
00:12:32The house is this way.
00:12:34The house is this way.
00:12:39Mom!
00:12:40Look at this bubble.
00:12:41It's so pretty.
00:12:46The house is this way.
00:12:47The house is this way.
00:13:05Richie.
00:13:09Richie, I'm here, sweetie.
00:13:10When did you become so fragile?
00:13:11She called him...
00:13:14Richie.
00:13:16Sir.
00:13:17I've taken the liberty of compiling some background information on Ms. Carter.
00:13:19Titty in the 80s, but have no business connections to the Sterling family whatsoever.
00:13:23Her mother worked on a local farm, but once again has no connections to us.
00:13:24At all.
00:13:26So then who is she?
00:13:27And why does she know so much about us?
00:13:29I'm afraid I can't answer her.
00:13:30All right, man.
00:13:32My name is Mr. Carter.
00:13:33I'm so sorry.
00:13:34I'm sorry.
00:13:35I'm sorry.
00:13:36I'm sorry.
00:13:37I'm sorry.
00:13:38You're sorry.
00:13:39You're sorry.
00:13:40I'm sorry.
00:13:41You're sorry.
00:13:42I'm sorry.
00:13:43I'm sorry.
00:13:44I'm sorry.
00:13:45I'm sorry.
00:13:46I'm sorry.
00:13:47I'm sorry.
00:13:48I'm sorry.
00:13:49I'm sorry.
00:13:50I'm sorry.
00:13:51I'm sorry.
00:13:52I'm afraid I can't answer that, sir.
00:13:57I'll come visit him, same time every day.
00:13:59Can I get your number?
00:14:01Your attitude.
00:14:02You think Alex Sterling is going to take orders from you?
00:14:12See you tomorrow, Lexi.
00:14:18She called me Lexi.
00:14:22Strange.
00:14:23That feels natural.
00:14:26But what's even stranger is part of me thinks she should call me that.
00:14:36Yes!
00:14:38What's up?
00:14:41Hey.
00:14:43Didn't expect you to be the new girl in our class.
00:14:46First, you want my attention and then you give me the cold shoulder.
00:14:58Is this how you flirt?
00:15:02Alright everyone.
00:15:06Leo.
00:15:07Put that away.
00:15:09If you don't like it, you can just leave, sir.
00:15:21Whoa!
00:15:23Girl.
00:15:25Liam was going easy on you before.
00:15:27Don't push it.
00:15:29Two options.
00:15:31One.
00:15:32Get out.
00:15:33Or two.
00:15:34Shut up and stop stinking up the place.
00:15:36Or else.
00:15:38You remember our little...
00:15:40baseball game yesterday.
00:15:43Time for a nap.
00:15:45Uh...
00:15:47Leo.
00:15:49Leo.
00:15:51Are you gonna...
00:15:52Are you really gonna take shit for me?
00:15:54You're just being a gentleman, okay?
00:15:56Keep running your mouth and your palate.
00:15:57What did the doctor say about Richie's condition?
00:16:11Mr. Sterling's previous episodes in a coma lasted anywhere from three days to three months.
00:16:17Their duration is impossible to predict.
00:16:23Mr. Smith, more tea please.
00:16:26Right away.
00:16:27Miss.
00:16:34Why did I just go along with her?
00:16:37Like she's the one running this house?
00:16:47Miss Carter.
00:16:48I've arranged for a car to take you home.
00:16:50Thanks, but I'm actually gonna take a walk.
00:16:52I wanna go to the local library to check out the latest physics research.
00:17:03Wait.
00:17:04Isn't that Vivian?
00:17:06She must be stalking me.
00:17:08I knew it.
00:17:09She's totally into me.
00:17:12What are you smiling about?
00:17:16Nothing.
00:17:17I wouldn't understand.
00:17:26You're home late.
00:17:28Where have you been?
00:17:30And don't cause me any trouble.
00:17:31What?
00:17:32Exactly.
00:17:33Don't embarrass our Carter family name.
00:17:36Spoiled brat.
00:17:38Her obnoxious mother.
00:17:40Stop.
00:17:42What is with that attitude?
00:17:44Relax.
00:17:45You should focus on Ashley.
00:17:47She's entering the Miss USA contest.
00:17:50Sponsored by Sterlings.
00:17:51That's right.
00:17:53Say, Ashley.
00:17:55How is that going?
00:17:57Well, I passed the auditions.
00:18:00But for the preliminaries we have to cook a special soup.
00:18:04Don't know why.
00:18:06I heard from an insider that Richard and Sterling's old boss loves this.
00:18:11Now that he's sick, maybe Sterling's designed this to fulfill the old man's wish.
00:18:14Hmm.
00:18:16I used to make soup for Richie.
00:18:18And he never got tired of it.
00:18:20My Richie misses me.
00:18:22The show has a billion dollar budget.
00:18:23It's a great opportunity.
00:18:25How do I sign up?
00:18:32Oh, sis.
00:18:34This is a national competition.
00:18:37The whole country will be watching.
00:18:39What a great way to humiliate yourself on live TV.
00:18:46Here's the entry form.
00:18:49Mom, no.
00:18:50Go ahead.
00:18:51What are you doing?
00:18:55No worries.
00:18:57She will just make you look even better.
00:19:04What?!
00:19:06You said Vivian has a question on you?
00:19:07Yeah.
00:19:08For real?
00:19:09Dude, of course it's real.
00:19:11I mean, she's been doling my attention all along, right?
00:19:14Dude?
00:19:16You're exactly right.
00:19:18You should use it to get back at her.
00:19:20Oh.
00:19:21Okay.
00:19:22Pretend to be into her.
00:19:24Chase her.
00:19:25Make her fall in love with you and then...
00:19:28Dump her in front of the entire school.
00:19:31Genius!
00:19:32She's done!
00:19:33That's totally fair.
00:19:34I mean, she embarrassed me.
00:19:35So bad.
00:19:36And now I get her back.
00:19:37Even worse.
00:19:38She'll be crying her eyes out in front of everyone.
00:19:42R.I.P.
00:19:43I can't wait to see what her face looks like.
00:19:45Me neither.
00:19:46Oh, I look good.
00:19:47Shit.
00:19:48Vivian.
00:19:49This is for you.
00:19:51I don't have time for this.
00:19:52What do you want?
00:19:53Can't you tell?
00:19:54I'm asking you out.
00:19:55What makes you think I'd be interested in you?
00:19:57Stop pretending.
00:19:58I know you have feelings for me.
00:19:59Don't be shy.
00:20:00What?
00:20:01You looking for something?
00:20:02Maybe.
00:20:03Ow!
00:20:04Ow!
00:20:05What the hell?
00:20:06I'm waking you up, dumbass.
00:20:07Don't start with this playboy show.
00:20:08Don't start with this playboy show.
00:20:09I'm not.
00:20:10I'm not.
00:20:11I'm not.
00:20:12I'm not.
00:20:13I'm not.
00:20:14I'm not.
00:20:15I'm not.
00:20:16I'm not.
00:20:17I'm not.
00:20:18I'm just.
00:20:19I'm not.
00:20:20Wait.
00:20:21You know what?
00:20:22Oh.
00:20:23I should do.
00:20:24Say, damn, I'll pack it some emails for me.
00:20:25Don't be shy.
00:20:27You looking for something?
00:20:30Ow!
00:20:31What the hell?
00:20:33I'm waking you up, dumbass.
00:20:34Don't start with this playboy shit.
00:20:37Dude.
00:20:38Dude.
00:20:39I don't think she has feelings for you.
00:20:42What do you know?
00:20:43She's just playing hard to get.
00:20:44Wait.
00:20:45Wait, is this your brother?
00:20:48You're a Sterling too?
00:20:58You know my big brother?
00:21:01Don't tell anyone.
00:21:02He told me to keep a low profile at school.
00:21:05Some classy family we are.
00:21:08Look at this.
00:21:10My own flesh and blood.
00:21:13Christ, what went wrong?
00:21:15Staring at me like that.
00:21:17You must be blown away by my char.
00:21:21Stay away from me.
00:21:24You make me sick just looking at you.
00:21:27Vivian, you country slut.
00:21:29I know all your tricks to seduce guys.
00:21:32I won't let you succeed.
00:21:35Oh, Vivian.
00:21:36Excuse me.
00:21:38Hi.
00:21:39Yeah, Mr. Anderson.
00:21:40Well, yeah, he's looking for you, so.
00:21:43Okay.
00:21:45Vivian, can I speak to you for a moment?
00:21:48So, you got every answer correct on yesterday's test.
00:21:52But there's no work shown.
00:21:54How is that possible?
00:21:56I can do the work in my head.
00:21:58I don't need to show my work.
00:21:59No, that's impossible.
00:22:02The PhDs.
00:22:04I'll tell you what I'm going to do.
00:22:06I'm going to give you a competition problem.
00:22:10Let's see.
00:22:12Right here.
00:22:13And I'll be back to check your levels.
00:22:15Sound good?
00:22:16I think I just gave Vivian the latest questions the top academics are working on.
00:22:36She won't get that one, that's for sure.
00:22:48How is this possible?
00:22:50You solved it this quickly?
00:22:58It's really not that hard.
00:23:00Oh, not that hard.
00:23:03Vivian, there's some physics professors that cannot solve this.
00:23:07Well, then, next time you get problems like this, just give them to me.
00:23:11Okay?
00:23:12Give them to you.
00:23:14Give them to you.
00:23:16I got a physics genius in my class.
00:23:19Whoa!
00:23:20Brother, I'm going to be honest.
00:23:22You look so hot with those flowers right now.
00:23:24Vivian is going to lose it when she sees you.
00:23:27I'll teach her a lesson.
00:23:28When I ask Vivian out, she'll definitely say yes.
00:23:31Definitely.
00:23:32Then, I'll reject her in front of the whole school, saying it all was a joke.
00:23:36We are going to make her the laughingstock of this whole school.
00:23:41Yes!
00:23:42Attention, everyone!
00:23:44Oh, my God, Ashley.
00:23:45Is he going to ask you out?
00:23:47Move.
00:23:49Vivian, this is a gift I got, especially for you.
00:23:59Oh, my God.
00:24:02She must have sexually manipulated him.
00:24:04That slut!
00:24:08Vivian, will you be my girlfriend?
00:24:11Oh, my God.
00:24:16Public confession and...
00:24:18A rose attack and a crystal necklace?
00:24:21My boy is not hidden and denied.
00:24:27You little punk.
00:24:29I'll teach you a lesson for my grandpa today.
00:24:32Shut up!
00:24:41All of you, shut up!
00:24:42What is this?
00:24:43Oh, my gosh.
00:24:53This is one of those luxury MS pieces.
00:24:55It's worth like a million dollars.
00:24:57Liam wants to be a prince.
00:24:58Liam wants to be a prince.
00:25:01Don't touch it!
00:25:03Wow, look at you.
00:25:05You look like a pretty princess now.
00:25:07Isn't it nice?
00:25:08You like it?
00:25:09Yeah?
00:25:10It's pretty cool.
00:25:14Daddy, who is this lady?
00:25:17Father, don't call him that.
00:25:24Come on, come sit with Mommy.
00:25:25No, it's fine.
00:25:26She can call me whatever.
00:25:27Um, this is, uh, Miss Carter.
00:25:34I'm Sabrina Monroe.
00:25:36Mr. Sterling's secretary.
00:25:37I'm here with my daughter, visiting him today.
00:25:39Please prepare the ingredient list.
00:25:44I'll leave this later.
00:25:47She doesn't act like a guest.
00:25:49More like the lady of the house.
00:25:53Alex?
00:25:54Who is this Miss Carter?
00:25:56Uh, she's a high school senior.
00:26:00It's complicated.
00:26:04Why can't he tell me?
00:26:06She can get between me and Alex
00:26:07and ruin my chance to marry into this family.
00:26:11Bella, go get Miss Carter some tea.
00:26:19Here, Miss Carter.
00:26:21Have some tea.
00:26:26Sorry, Miss Carter.
00:26:27Are you okay?
00:26:33I'll let this go this time.
00:26:35But if you keep being so clumsy,
00:26:38you'll need to be disciplined better.
00:26:41Or, I'll splash this tea in your mom's face.
00:26:47Mommy!
00:26:48What's wrong?
00:26:49Come here, come here.
00:26:50Are you okay?
00:26:51What's going on?
00:26:53Miss Carter's scary.
00:26:55She was mean to me.
00:26:57Shh.
00:26:57Mom, Daddy!
00:27:01Oh, hey, hey, hey.
00:27:03Come on.
00:27:04Let's go.
00:27:06Can you explain Miss Carter?
00:27:09Alex, if you can't run a family well,
00:27:12how could you expect to run a company one day?
00:27:15You...
00:27:16Everyone out.
00:27:18The patient needs rest.
00:27:19Come on.
00:27:22Come on.
00:27:22Come on.
00:27:22Come on.
00:27:23Come on.
00:27:23Come on.
00:27:23Come on.
00:27:24Come on.
00:27:24Come on.
00:27:24Come on.
00:27:24Come on.
00:27:24Come on.
00:27:24Come on.
00:27:24Come on.
00:27:25Come on.
00:27:25Come on.
00:27:26Come on.
00:27:26Alex, you're the CEO.
00:27:29How could you take orders from her?
00:27:31I don't know.
00:27:33Just some kind of weird feeling.
00:27:35I can't explain it.
00:27:37But I just want to do everything she tells me to do.
00:27:45Oh, the noisy people are gone, Richie.
00:27:49They always wanted me to cook for you again, right?
00:27:52Well, I entered the Miss USA competition, which means I'll practice hard.
00:28:04I'll cook for you again.
00:28:06And then maybe when you're flying with you SOY's.
00:28:07Or maybe...
00:28:09When the time comes, do it.
00:28:16You can show me on.
00:28:20Okay?
00:28:20I wish you could wake up and eat this.
00:28:50Doctor, the patient moved!
00:29:13These are signs that he will wake up, but it could be tomorrow or next week.
00:29:18We just can't be sure.
00:29:27Miss Carter!
00:29:28Alex has some business he's handling.
00:29:30I'll walk you out.
00:29:32It's fine.
00:29:33I don't need an escort from his secretary.
00:29:37Alex, help!
00:29:38She's hurt!
00:29:40What happened?
00:29:41Are you okay?
00:29:43Miss Carter pushed me.
00:29:46She made me fall.
00:29:48She pushed you?
00:29:52What do you think?
00:29:54Do you believe me or them?
00:29:56How could you?
00:29:58She's just a child.
00:30:00You're not welcome in our home anymore.
00:30:02Being this blind and you still want to be the sterling heir.
00:30:09If you can't figure this out, you might as well just give up being the CEO.
00:30:14Oh, gee.
00:30:17Since when does some random teenage girl decide my family matters?
00:30:24Sir, your grandfather is awake.
00:30:26What?
00:30:27He's out of danger now.
00:30:35Good then, Father.
00:30:36How are you feeling?
00:30:37You're awake.
00:30:38Can I get you anything?
00:30:39I smelled a familiar dish while I was sleeping.
00:30:42I'm gonna say that again.
00:30:43I smelled a familiar dish when I was sleeping.
00:31:02Sir, I believe you're referring to Miss Vivian Carter's special soup.
00:31:06Vivian?
00:31:07That's my mother's name.
00:31:09What?
00:31:10Yes, she made it just for you.
00:31:14Where is she?
00:31:16If I bring her here.
00:31:17Grandpa, she'll come back in a couple days.
00:31:20No.
00:31:21No, no, no, no, no.
00:31:22Get her now.
00:31:23Get her now.
00:31:24Get her now.
00:31:25Miss Carter.
00:31:27Mr. Sterling's awake and wants to see you.
00:31:40How could two people be so identical?
00:31:57Mom has been dead for years.
00:31:58She can't be.
00:31:59Richie.
00:32:00Richie.
00:32:01You know my nickname.
00:32:02Oh, nobody's called me Richie since mom passed.
00:32:04Richie.
00:32:05It's mom.
00:32:06Miss, please.
00:32:07Please.
00:32:08Don't make a joke out of this.
00:32:09Richie.
00:32:10Do you remember Max?
00:32:12Your first puppy.
00:32:13He died of illness and you were so heartbroken.
00:32:15You were so heartbroken.
00:32:16No.
00:32:17No.
00:32:18No.
00:32:19No.
00:32:20No.
00:32:21No.
00:32:22No.
00:32:23No.
00:32:24No.
00:32:25No.
00:32:26No.
00:32:27No.
00:32:28No.
00:32:29No.
00:32:30No.
00:32:31No.
00:32:32No.
00:32:33No.
00:32:34No.
00:32:35No.
00:32:36No.
00:32:37No.
00:32:38No.
00:32:39No.
00:32:40No.
00:32:41No.
00:32:42No.
00:32:43Oh.
00:32:44Max.
00:32:45How do you...
00:32:46How do you know about this?
00:32:54Oh.
00:32:55I promised you that I would never let you feel such painful loss again, but I'm sorry.
00:33:05I broke my promise.
00:33:06I left you too early.
00:33:09Oh, God, you must have been so lonely without me.
00:33:24Mom.
00:33:27Come here.
00:33:29Reggie.
00:33:31It's Mom.
00:33:33Mom's back.
00:33:35And I'm never going to leave you again.
00:33:38Mom.
00:33:39This is a little crazy.
00:33:50I don't want to please think this over still.
00:33:55Don't bother me when I'm talking to my mother.
00:34:01Mom.
00:34:04What's going on here?
00:34:05I don't know.
00:34:12I thought I died that day.
00:34:15But when I opened my eyes, I was here 70 years later.
00:34:21Same name.
00:34:23Same face.
00:34:23This is ridiculous, Miss Carter.
00:34:26No.
00:34:30This is your great-grandmother.
00:34:33How dare you talk like that?
00:34:36Maybe this is just a fate.
00:34:38Maybe it's a miracle.
00:34:41Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe.
00:34:43Oh, the universe has just finally answered my prayer from all these years.
00:34:49And she's brought my mom back to me.
00:34:54And I'll have to get through my mom.
00:35:01Grandmother, she can't even provide any evidence.
00:35:03Or, or, this is my mother.
00:35:07This is insane.
00:35:13You know that?
00:35:15So stubborn.
00:35:17Just like you, when you were younger, Richie.
00:35:20But from what I've seen today, I don't think he can run our family's company.
00:35:29Richie, do you really think Lexi's fit to be the heir?
00:35:32I've got another grandson.
00:35:35Maybe I should call him.
00:35:38Mom, you choose the heir.
00:35:40Lexi's still young.
00:35:48We should teach him.
00:35:49Step by step.
00:35:53Lexi.
00:35:58Meet your great-grandma.
00:36:03I've never seen Grandpa this happy.
00:36:05Maybe this great-grandma might not be such a bad thing.
00:36:09All right.
00:36:12Great-grandma.
00:36:15That's my great-grandson.
00:36:18Now, Richie.
00:36:21You should get some rest.
00:36:23I think I'll move back in.
00:36:27And Lexi, clean my room.
00:36:30Sure.
00:36:33Now tell me everything I missed.
00:36:39Good morning, sir.
00:36:43Miss Carter.
00:36:44Smith, from now on, I would like you to treat Miss Carter as you would me.
00:36:49What?
00:36:50Well, if I give you an order and it conflicts with hers, then we'll follow her in order first.
00:36:57Did I hear that right?
00:37:02I'll get Mom.
00:37:03I got you some eggs.
00:37:13Thanks, Lexi.
00:37:17Master Liam is back.
00:37:19Oh.
00:37:20My youngest grandson, Liam.
00:37:22I bought him a villa by his school.
00:37:28He has a wonderful personality.
00:37:30You'll like him.
00:37:34Grandpa, I'm home.
00:37:37He's Liam.
00:37:43No freaking way.
00:37:45Vivian?
00:37:45Vivian?
00:37:47You just rejected me, and now you're sitting at my grandpa's breakfast table?
00:37:50Well, how do you know each other?
00:37:52We're classmates.
00:37:56So, you came chasing after me, huh?
00:38:02Smith, bring everyone in.
00:38:05Grandpa, but what did I do wrong?
00:38:08You arrogant fool.
00:38:11This lady, lovely lady, is your great-grandmother.
00:38:17Wait, wait, what?
00:38:19Great-grandmother?
00:38:20You're my mother, all right?
00:38:23And don't make me say it again, though.
00:38:25You're what?
00:38:27You know the answer, all right?
00:38:29What do you call my mother?
00:38:34Great-grandma.
00:38:36Ah, yeah.
00:38:37That's better.
00:38:38She's disrespecting our family's history.
00:38:58Our great-grandmother was the rock this family was built on.
00:39:01All right, enough, Liam.
00:39:02You praised me one second, then you trashed me the next.
00:39:08I don't know whether we'd be mad at you or not.
00:39:11Look, great-grandma, this is kind of an unusual situation.
00:39:17I think that's why Liam is having so much trouble accepting it right now.
00:39:21What did you call her, bro?
00:39:24Look, listen to me, little bro.
00:39:26She truly is your great-grandmother.
00:39:29Are you all insane?
00:39:30She's not a man.
00:39:33I would like you to meet Vivian, my mother.
00:39:36And, uh, you will respect her as such, all right?
00:39:42No, you will not deserve a sterming name.
00:39:46Seriously.
00:39:48Seriously.
00:39:51Look, we understand, Grandpa.
00:39:54Don't we, Liam?
00:39:58Fine.
00:39:59I trust you, bro.
00:40:04That's better.
00:40:06Sir, I brought this Daisy back.
00:40:13Ah, funny.
00:40:21Well, maybe she is.
00:40:24Daisy is Alex's daughter.
00:40:27And she's going to boarding school, right?
00:40:30Right.
00:40:31Hi.
00:40:32Are you my family?
00:40:34You can call me Vivian.
00:40:38But...
00:40:39It's fine.
00:40:41Vivian works.
00:40:43Well, uh, well, uh, Vivian.
00:40:47Um, her mother had an amniotism during her delivery.
00:40:53And now, Alex has raised her all by himself these years.
00:40:57Boarding school.
00:41:08Isn't she kind of young for that?
00:41:12No, that was Alex's call.
00:41:14You know, it's top-notch curriculum and facilities, right?
00:41:17Um, and Sabrina's daughter, Bella?
00:41:22Boarding school that young, too?
00:41:25No, she doesn't have a father.
00:41:28Uh, she's always been, um, insecure.
00:41:34Boarding school's not for her.
00:41:36Your secretary, Ms. Monroe, and Ms. Bella are here.
00:41:38Daddy!
00:41:40Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:41:44Daddy!
00:41:47Hey, come here.
00:41:49Oh, oh, oh.
00:41:53Take a seat.
00:41:57Great, Grandma.
00:41:59Take care.
00:42:00I'll be sad if you get sick again.
00:42:03Oh, that's so sweet.
00:42:05Well, you stay for dinner, all right?
00:42:07Have a seat.
00:42:10We should have some.
00:42:11Well, uh, Sabrina, would you pass that salad up here, please?
00:42:15Let me taste this.
00:42:17How does Richard know what this young upstart likes to eat?
00:42:26Wait, Dad.
00:42:28I want some fruit.
00:42:30Do you want some?
00:42:32Okay.
00:42:33Here, you can have some, sweetheart.
00:42:34Here, you can have some kiwi and some pineapple.
00:42:38Dad.
00:42:39Yeah?
00:42:40I, I want some fruit, too.
00:42:44Oh, honey.
00:42:45You know you're old enough to get it yourself, okay?
00:42:48Daisy's old enough?
00:42:49From what I recall, Bella's a few months older, isn't she?
00:42:57You want some fruit?
00:43:00Please make Daisy a plate.
00:43:02Is she responsible for her harsh treatment?
00:43:03I want you to cancel all your appointments this afternoon, all right?
00:43:29And I want you to take Ms. Carter and Daisy shopping.
00:43:33How about that?
00:43:35Is this Ms. Carter, the wife the old man picked out for Alex?
00:43:39But, Dad, he promised to buy that dog.
00:43:47Oh, God.
00:43:48Is Grandpa's plan less important than yours?
00:43:57Bella, sweetie.
00:43:59Let's not make things difficult for Daddy, okay?
00:44:01How about Mommy takes you to the amusement park?
00:44:06Yeah?
00:44:07Okay.
00:44:12I'll drive you.
00:44:19Mom, I've been thinking about what you said, and you're right.
00:44:22Bella, she's not simple.
00:44:25She's just trying to compete for everyone's attention against Daisy.
00:44:30And Alex doesn't even see it.
00:44:32Mom, I want you to take all of these black cards.
00:44:41I want you to go and use it to buy anything for as well as you want.
00:44:47So many black cards.
00:44:49You don't mind if I just take one, right?
00:44:51I mean, I don't even think about it.
00:44:53But a hundred grand a month is not enough for you.
00:44:57I just bought a million dollar necklace the other day.
00:45:01I'll take them.
00:45:02And from now on, I'll be monitoring all of you for your experiences.
00:45:05No.
00:45:06Yeah, I like that.
00:45:10That's right.
00:45:12From now on, you are going to watch over your great-grandmother in school every day.
00:45:18You listen to her, you watch her, you take care of her.
00:45:21Got it.
00:45:22What, so I'm her personal assistant?
00:45:27Oh, hey.
00:45:28Watch your step, great-grandma.
00:45:31Damn.
00:45:32She looks amazing today.
00:45:34Seriously?
00:45:36I think she's smarter than Ashley.
00:45:38Liam.
00:45:40For real?
00:45:41Dude, shut up.
00:45:45Hey, look, I gotta take care of something.
00:45:48You're not going to go sneak away and smoke again, are you?
00:45:55Here.
00:45:56Made you a plan.
00:46:01Rules for Liam.
00:46:03Skip class, $100 fine.
00:46:06Late, $200 fine.
00:46:08Smoke break, $1,000.
00:46:10$1,000?
00:46:12Whoa.
00:46:14What is this?
00:46:16Mafia tax?
00:46:18Mom, I can't handle this torture.
00:46:21Gah!
00:46:33Mom, you're home.
00:46:37I just heard that you entered the Miss USA.
00:46:41We sponsored.
00:46:43You're incredible.
00:46:44Well, now that you're awake, I don't need to do it anymore.
00:46:51Mom?
00:46:53Look at it.
00:46:55The universe is giving you a chance to live again.
00:47:00I'm so proud of you, Paul.
00:47:04You go and shine on that stage.
00:47:07Alex had too much to drink, so I'm just going to take him up to his room.
00:47:16All right.
00:47:18We?
00:47:26Grandpa.
00:47:26Isn't that where the old man's mother lived?
00:47:32Does he want Vivian to marry into the Sterling family?
00:47:35What about me?
00:47:42Whoa.
00:47:44What?
00:47:45What's going on?
00:47:48We?
00:47:48Alex, just tell me the truth.
00:47:51Okay, what is Miss Carter's role here?
00:47:53Wait, her?
00:47:55Well, she...
00:47:56She's, uh...
00:47:58Um...
00:47:59She's family.
00:48:00You know?
00:48:03Family?
00:48:04Yeah.
00:48:06Family?
00:48:08What about me?
00:48:09Wait, Dad.
00:48:09After all this time, what am I to you?
00:48:13Well, honey, you're...
00:48:15She's family.
00:48:17And you're my girlfriend.
00:48:20There's...
00:48:21There's no conflict.
00:48:23Why are you...
00:48:23Why are you...
00:48:26Hey, hey.
00:48:28Baby, don't cry.
00:48:29Come on.
00:48:30Baby, don't cry.
00:48:32Oh, no.
00:48:33Just...
00:48:33Just...
00:48:34Come here.
00:48:35Just dance with me.
00:48:36Come on.
00:48:37Vivian, you bitch.
00:48:39I'm going to make your life a living hell.
00:48:47Hey, Richie.
00:48:48I'm heading out to the competition.
00:48:51Okay, Mom.
00:48:54Listen, Mom.
00:48:56I talked to the person in charge,
00:48:58and you can compete confidently.
00:49:02Didn't I teach you to be honest?
00:49:06Sure, but...
00:49:08I just want to help you, Mom.
00:49:12If I cut corners and use your connections,
00:49:14then how could I be your role model?
00:49:18Wow.
00:49:19You're right, Mom.
00:49:21You're right.
00:49:23What's my thinking?
00:49:30Hey, Alex,
00:49:31can you get me a ticket for today?
00:49:33Now, you and I are both going to cheer Mom on.
00:49:36Oh, my God.
00:49:44Vivian and Ashley both entered Miss USA.
00:49:48Who do you all think is going to make the finals?
00:49:50I think it's going to be Vivian.
00:49:53Agreed.
00:49:54Vivian's beautiful and multi-talented.
00:49:57She totally fits in the current Miss USA train.
00:49:59Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:50:00My mom's the best.
00:50:03How can it be Vivian, that country bumpkin?
00:50:09Hey, hey, don't...
00:50:10Hey, come on.
00:50:11Just focus on the show.
00:50:13I don't like...
00:50:14Hello, everyone.
00:50:23I'm Sabrina Munro, representing our competition sponsor,
00:50:26the Sterling Foundation.
00:50:31The competition will start in 10 minutes,
00:50:34and then the live stream will begin.
00:50:36And now let's hear what our director has to say about the rules.
00:50:38Yes, yes, Munro.
00:50:42My father tried every connection to meet Munro
00:50:44and couldn't even get close.
00:50:46And I met her so easily.
00:50:50You really need to get on the big stage to level up.
00:50:55You've got 45 minutes.
00:50:57After cooking, you'll bring your dish to the stage.
00:50:59Got it.
00:50:59Got it.
00:50:59Got it.
00:51:03Vivian Carter's here, too?
00:51:06Get me all the info you can on that Vivian.
00:51:09And do me another favor.
00:51:14Vivian Carter
00:51:16Copy that.
00:51:25Sorry, Vivian.
00:51:27The director says no branded ingredients on camera.
00:51:30Your spices have logos.
00:51:32Put them away.
00:51:37And now she doesn't even have basic seasonings.
00:51:44Oh, this is going to be good.
00:51:45Let's go, Ashley!
00:51:47Woo-hoo!
00:51:47Woo-hoo!
00:51:48Ashley!
00:51:50Everybody has signs but us.
00:51:52Now, where's Vivian's sign?
00:51:54I want you to make a big, big sign for your brain.
00:51:56Yeah, yeah, okay, I will.
00:51:57I promise.
00:51:58We'll get a sign.
00:51:59The biggest of signs.
00:52:00All right?
00:52:00All right.
00:52:01Okay.
00:52:01Ashley, you're the queen!
00:52:04Vivian, you're the real queen!
00:52:05Honestly, I did not expect Vivian to have fans.
00:52:11No way.
00:52:12Vivian can't compete with Ashley.
00:52:15Is that old guy her relative?
00:52:17That's hilarious.
00:52:20What?
00:52:21What?
00:52:22Can we please just kick out a couple of these people?
00:52:24Hey, hey, hey, don't fight with the kids.
00:52:26Come on.
00:52:27Stop, you're making a scene.
00:52:29I don't want your grandma to lose momentum.
00:52:31You know, this is...
00:52:32Shh!
00:52:40Um, Miss Director?
00:52:42I'm done.
00:52:44Ashley, please bring your food to the judges for judging.
00:52:47Gladly.
00:52:48Let's go, girls!
00:53:05Delicious.
00:53:06Really good.
00:53:07Amazing.
00:53:12Congratulations to Ashley for scoring 97 points.
00:53:15Let's go, Ashley!
00:53:22No spices.
00:53:27Fine.
00:53:29I like work.
00:53:45All of these girls brought their own spices.
00:54:01But where are Vivian's spices?
00:54:03In fact, where is she?
00:54:04Where is your great-great?
00:54:05Okay, hold on.
00:54:06We'll figure this out.
00:54:08Go check it out.
00:54:09All right, I'm sure there's an explanation, all right?
00:54:11Oh, look, look, look.
00:54:12What?
00:54:15Whoa, that was incredible.
00:54:22I want a bite.
00:54:28Mmm.
00:54:34This brings out the food's natural flavors.
00:54:39The most delicious dish I've tasted today.
00:54:43Judges have given their scores, and wow, the highest score so far, 99.
00:54:51Thank you, thank you, thank you.
00:55:03This dish I made for the person I love most in the world.
00:55:09His smile is what gives this dish its true meaning.
00:55:16What's so special about Vivian?
00:55:21You mean the country bumpkin?
00:55:23She's just better than your girl all around.
00:55:27See, I told you, our family's the strongest.
00:55:31Chairman, President, I heard Secretary Monroe had the staff remove Miss Carter's spice bag.
00:55:40What?
00:55:46What's your relationship with the Sterlings?
00:55:51How could your dish have won?
00:55:55Is this why you pulled that little stunt today?
00:56:00If you can't keep your personal drama out of the workplace, then I don't think you're qualified for this position.
00:56:07Fire me?
00:56:09I graduated from Harvard, okay?
00:56:12The Sterling Group's chief HR officer personally invited me here today.
00:56:16Nobody fires me.
00:56:18Hmm.
00:56:19Well, resign or be fired.
00:56:24Your choice.
00:56:25Okay.
00:56:26You are way out of line, Miss Scarlet.
00:56:30Don't think just because Richard likes you, that means that you're somebody.
00:56:34Okay?
00:56:35I am Alex's girlfriend, and I'm the future CFO.
00:56:39So what gives you the right to tell me to leave?
00:56:44Well, just wait for the text you're about to receive.
00:56:59Sabrina, due to the violation of our regulations...
00:57:03You are fired?
00:57:04Ah, Mom!
00:57:05You totally cooked on stage.
00:57:06So, so slang.
00:57:07Totally iconic.
00:57:08I'm obsessed now.
00:57:09Of course.
00:57:10Where did you learn all of that?
00:57:11Well, I figure if I'm the number one fan, I gotta walk the walk and talk the talk.
00:57:12You?
00:57:13Ah, Mom!
00:57:14You totally cooked on stage.
00:57:15Ah, Mom!
00:57:16Oh, you totally cooked on stage.
00:57:17So, so slang.
00:57:18Totally iconic.
00:57:19I'm obsessed now.
00:57:20Of course.
00:57:21Where did you learn all of that?
00:57:22Well, I figured if I'm the number one fan, I gotta walk the walk and talk the talk.
00:57:37can talk the talk. Alex? This is about Monroe. I had her fired. What? How? I hacked into
00:57:56the company's internal database and I sent her a termination notice. Wait, wait. Our
00:58:01system firewall is state of the art. How did you manage to breach it so quickly?
00:58:07I've been teaching myself IT. Although I'm surprised I cracked it in under a minute.
00:58:15Grandma, look, Sabrina definitely didn't do that on purpose. Oh, come on. Really? Yes,
00:58:23don't you think firing her is a little extreme? You're defending her. I'm just... No, no, no, no, no,
00:58:30because if you can't judge things properly, how can I trust you to run the company, son? Grandpa.
00:58:36Huh? That's not even fair to say. Jack, bring me the equity transfer document. Reassigning my
00:58:47heir. Please sign here, sir. No, no, no, no, no, Jack. Not for him. I am transferring all my equity.
00:58:57in the company too. It's Vivian. Uh, understood. Richie is already 78 years old. As his mother, how can I bear to watch him work himself to death, running an entire career?
00:59:04How can I bear to watch him work himself to death, running an entire company?
00:59:11Ma'am, from now on I will serve you wholeheartedly. Should we announce it to the media?
00:59:18No, I don't want to make a big scene.
00:59:25Now your great-grandma is the CEO, so she doesn't need to report to you before she fires some errant employee.
00:59:32Understand?
00:59:33Now your great-grandma is the CEO, so she doesn't need to report to you before she fires some errant employee.
00:59:40Understand?
00:59:52I know all about great-grandma's history, but shouldn't a legend like this be a, I don't know, a little bit more, uh, magnanimous?
00:59:59Why do you know that?
01:00:01I don't want to make a big scene.
01:00:03Now your great-grandma is the CEO, so she doesn't need to report to you before she fires some errant employee.
01:00:08Magnanimous. Why do you have to target my innocent Supreme?
01:00:12Innocent?
01:00:14Why can't you see the truth here?
01:00:18You're gonna force me to make some adjustments I don't want to make if you keep doing this.
01:00:24I'm not breaking off.
01:00:25As of right now, no more family trust.
01:00:30No more personal funds, no more reserve accounts.
01:00:35You will remain as president of the company and that's your salary.
01:00:40But that's all.
01:00:42Understood.
01:00:44Jack?
01:00:45I'm here.
01:00:46Can we speed this up?
01:00:47I have homework to do.
01:00:48Sure, ma'am.
01:00:49I'll come down right away to get you.
01:00:51Hey, watch out.

01:00:58Do you know who I am?
01:01:00Not even the president can tell me what to do.
01:01:02Oh, so the president doesn't control you.
01:01:09Does that make you the CEO?
01:01:12Not yet.
01:01:13there's still 15 more minutes do you know who I am not even the president can
01:01:19tell me what to do oh so the president doesn't control you

01:11:25You're so sick.
01:11:26You don't deserve to be prom queen.
01:11:27Get out of here, you bitch.
01:11:29Vivian will not get away with this.
01:11:33I need to go grab my things.
01:11:34Grab my things.
01:11:35Oh, it smells so good.
01:11:40It's getting sick.
01:11:41It's getting sick.
01:11:42Very unfortunate, but let's move on.
01:11:45Our prom queen is Vivian.
01:11:48Mom, you are amazing.
01:12:12I knew that you would win prom queen.
01:12:16It's because of the dress you picked out for me.
01:12:18No.
01:12:19You're just naturally stunning, Mom.
01:12:25Oh, listen.
01:12:28Alex finally scraped up all the money he needed.
01:12:32Now he's waiting for a Sabrina to come to get the money to him.
01:12:36Bella, why don't you go play with Daisy, yeah?
01:12:47I was wrong before.
01:12:49She must be his mistress.
01:12:51No, I have to find a way to get Richard to transfer all his stock and property to Alex.
01:12:56It's a bit better.
01:12:58Could you add some more milk and sugar?
01:12:59Yeah, sure, Mom.
01:13:01Sir, my brother was confused, and he made a mistake.
01:13:05And after suffering for a few days in jail, he's learned his lesson.
01:13:09And he'll never do such a thing again.
01:13:12Well, now, oh, hang on now.
01:13:15Hang on now.
01:13:17I'm going to go get some fresh air.
01:13:19Oh, okay.
01:13:35Bella, what brings you here?
01:13:46Of course, I'll play with you.
01:13:48Oh, these dresses.
01:13:49Why don't you try one on so I can see how pretty it looks on you?
01:13:53Okay.
01:13:53Bella!
01:14:07Honey, what happened?
01:14:09How did you fall?
01:14:10Are you okay?
01:14:10Tell Mommy when it hurts.
01:14:11Daisy bullied me.
01:14:15I touched one of her dresses.
01:14:18She said, I'm dirty.
01:14:21She pushed me and called me on this third without a father.
01:14:26Daisy, is this true?
01:14:28Apologize.
01:14:29I didn't.
01:14:30Daisy, apologize right now.
01:14:32I was just passing by and I saw you two girls talking.
01:14:50It was so cute.
01:14:51I had to take a video.
01:14:53Video?
01:14:54You're eight years old.
01:15:17How could you be so manipulative?
01:15:18Daddy, I was wrong.
01:15:25I was just jealous.
01:15:26Daisy has all this.
01:15:28You're mad I'm not really your daughter.
01:15:31I'm so lonely without Daddy's love.
01:15:34Oh.
01:15:37Alex, please forgive her.
01:15:40Bella grew up without a father and she just wanted your attention.
01:15:45Miss Monroe, you are so...
01:15:48She's so good at spinning this.
01:15:51So, if Bella were to kill someone, as long as she says she's fatherless, she won't go to jail?
01:16:00Alex.
01:16:04We're done.
01:16:06As for that money for your brother, you can go ahead and figure that out yourself.
01:16:10No.
01:16:11Stop.
01:16:12No, I don't want to hear it.
01:16:13Smith.
01:16:14Take him out of my sight.
01:16:16Now.
01:16:18Alex, you don't trust your own child?
01:16:31Do you think that makes you a good dad?
01:16:34Apologize to her.
01:16:36Daisy, I am so sorry.
01:16:38How many times has this happened to a child?
01:16:42You're her entire world.
01:16:45When you hurt her, her entire world hurts.
01:16:55Daddy really messed up.
01:16:57I'm so sorry.
01:16:59Will you forgive me?
01:17:00Daisy, someone apologizes to us.
01:17:05We have the right not to forgive them.
01:17:08Let's go.
01:17:10Wait, Vivian.
01:17:12Daisy!
01:17:13All right, to celebrate Vivian winning gold at the physics competition, I'm throwing a party.
01:17:25Let's get crazy.
01:17:27Vivian!
01:17:28Vivian!
01:17:30Vivian!
01:17:30All right, everybody.
01:17:32Vivian?
01:17:33You're my hero.
01:17:34Oh, my God.
01:17:38Who cares about this?
01:17:39Money talks.
01:17:41Exactly.
01:17:42The Hayes and the Carters just signed a $10 million deal.
01:17:46So, Ashley's family just skyrocketed.
01:17:49Meaning, back from now on, Binion's only good enough to work for Ashley.
01:17:54The Hayes family?
01:17:58Our old friends?
01:17:59Uh, sis?
01:18:24Do you even know where you are?
01:18:26And you just waltz in here?
01:18:28Vivian, you little brat.
01:18:29Get on!
01:18:33I think you're the ones who should leave.
01:18:36Vivian, the Sterling family is a very elite family.
01:18:40And you just don't belong.
01:18:45Oh, really?
01:18:46Yeah.
01:18:47So, how are you three qualified to be here?
01:18:51Oh, we just signed a $10 billion deal with Hayes.
01:18:55Friends of the Sterlings?
01:18:57Yeah.
01:18:59Oh, you don't want to listen to me, do you?
01:19:05Maybe you'll want to listen to this.
01:19:07Stop!
01:19:13Stop!
01:19:13Oh, Mr. Sterling!
01:19:21What a surprise!
01:19:23Don't pleasure me.
01:19:26Well, my daughter, Vivian, she doesn't know how to act around people, well, people like you.
01:19:34Um, so I will escort her out immediately.
01:19:37I don't think so.
01:19:39The only person who's leaving is you.
01:19:44Mr. Sterling, you can't be serious right now.
01:19:47Oh, I'm that serious.
01:19:49Smith!
01:19:49Take these three idiots out of my sight.
01:19:54Yes, sir.
01:19:54Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
01:19:56Mr. Sterling, you can't do this.
01:19:58Hayes invited us here.
01:19:59Hayes?
01:20:00Yeah.
01:20:00Wait.
01:20:02Oh.
01:20:03Mr. Hayes, thank God you're here.
01:20:06I'm William Carter, remember?
01:20:08We just signed the Sunshine City deal.
01:20:12Do you want to know why I deal with you?
01:20:15Because of my daughter.
01:20:18You said she was exceptional.
01:20:21Hi, Mr. Hayes, it's me, Ashley.
01:20:23Keep your filthy hands off me.
01:20:31If not for Vivian, your pathetic family would have nothing.
01:20:35Hey, how dare you treat her like garbage?
01:20:38Bring me that contract.
01:20:51Effective immediately, the Hayes family are cutting all ties with the Carter family.
01:20:59Dad, what are you going to do?
01:21:01Don't worry.
01:21:02I demand to talk to the old chairman.
01:21:04I don't worry, he will settle everything.
01:21:07Where?
01:21:08Who exactly wants to...
01:21:10Sammy.
01:21:17Chairman Sterling, I'm William Carter.
01:21:19Your grandson is trying to kick me out.
01:21:23So...
01:21:24Grandfather, these idiots are disrespecting Vivian.
01:21:29The Sterling Group will never, and I repeat, never do business with the Carter family.
01:21:43Furthermore, any of you who are doing business with Mr. Hayes and myself, you are prohibited
01:21:47from any association whatsoever with the Carter family.
01:21:50It's the Carter family.
01:21:53Understood?
01:21:53Understood?
01:21:53Huh?
01:21:54It's been like a week.
01:22:11Why isn't Alex texting me back?
01:22:13Why isn't Alex texting me back?
01:22:23Long time no see, babe.
01:22:25What do you want?
01:22:26We're divorced.
01:22:29Did you know your boyfriend isn't the heir anymore?
01:22:31Richard gave all his shares to Vivian.
01:22:36What?
01:22:38That's impossible.
01:22:40You know what's funny?
01:22:42You married me when you thought Alex was broke, and divorced me when you found out he wasn't.
01:22:47Looks like you played yourself.
01:22:51So what, you're here to rub it in?
01:22:53No.
01:22:53Actually, I'm here to take you back, and crush his family.
01:22:59So what's the catch?
01:23:02Steal something for me.
01:23:21What the hell are you doing?
01:23:23Get out.
01:23:28I really miss you, Alex.
01:23:33Just please, don't kick me out.
01:23:37Can we please just try again?
01:23:42It's going to be fine, okay?
01:23:44Yeah.
01:23:45You can give me another show.
01:23:47Yeah.
01:23:50Alex.
01:23:53Do you know what you're doing?
01:23:56Of course I do.
01:24:08Clumsy me.
01:24:09Could you please just go get me a tissue?
01:24:12It's just my tears are for me in my makeup.
01:24:14Well, of course I can do that.
01:24:16Yeah.
01:24:17Stay right here, okay?
01:24:18Okay.
01:24:20It's going to be fine.
01:24:20I'm fine.
01:24:21I'm fine.
01:24:51I'm sending this to our product team right now.
01:24:56And to crush the Sterling Empire, you'll be the richest woman in town.
01:25:02And we'll be the most powerful couple in the city.
01:25:10Talk to me.
01:25:11Boss, we have a major problem.
01:25:13The file we've loaded is Trojans.
01:25:15Our entire system is compromised.
01:25:17Trojans?
01:25:21Stupid bitch!
01:25:24You've ruined everything!
01:25:30Alex!
01:25:33Did you print Trojans on me?
01:25:35He came after me.
01:25:37I had to protect myself.
01:25:41Great-grandma, I need you to remotely install Trojans in these files.
01:25:52And...
01:25:54The same.
01:25:57You are so cruel.
01:25:59All of this just because Bella isn't your real daughter.
01:26:06If you were actually cruel, you would be suffering way worse consequences.
01:26:13Dad!
01:26:14Please don't do this!
01:26:15Daddy!
01:26:21Stop.
01:26:23Bella, I'm not your real father.
01:26:25Come here.
01:26:28The most important thing is teaching your kids right from wrong.
01:26:31Why don't you start doing that with your daughter?
01:26:35Alex...
01:26:37Come on, please.
01:26:38Don't touch me.
01:26:40We're done.
01:26:42Mr. Smith!
01:26:43My lawyers will be in touch with you about the money in the house.
01:26:46It's my room.
01:26:47Please.
01:26:48You don't want to hear it.
01:26:50We're better off without toxic people like that.
01:26:51Don't beat yourself up.
01:26:52It's not about them.
01:26:53I regret letting my daughter down.
01:26:54I need to make this right.
01:26:55You think, uh...
01:26:58Theme parks and jewelry will help?
01:27:02Nice gifts won't fix this.
01:27:04You need to earn her love back.
01:27:07I'm sorry.
01:27:09I'm sorry.
01:27:11I'm sorry.
01:27:12I'm sorry.
01:27:13I'm sorry.
01:27:14I'm sorry.
01:27:15I'm sorry.
01:27:16I'm sorry.
01:27:17I'm sorry.
01:27:18I'm sorry.
01:27:19You're sorry.
01:27:20I'm sorry.
01:27:21I'm sorry.
01:27:22I'm sorry.
01:27:23I'm sorry.
01:27:24I'm sorry.
01:27:30Well, today's Thanksgiving.

01:28:15I've actually changed a lot.
01:28:18The teachers are praising my progress.
01:28:21Right?
01:28:22Great-grandma?
01:28:24Yes.
01:28:25But did you finish your biology homework yet?
